[jazz music playing]

2
00:00:45,462 --> 00:00:46,630
[John] Ji Moon died.

3
00:00:47,756 --> 00:00:49,550
He overdosed and he died.

4
00:00:51,552 --> 00:00:52,553
And there it is.

5
00:00:52,636 --> 00:00:55,305
Tragic, but no one should be
too surprised.

6
00:00:56,723 --> 00:00:57,724
That's the story.

7
00:00:59,184 --> 00:01:02,521
I'll leave out the part
where I'm the one who killed him.

8
00:01:02,604 --> 00:01:03,856
[music fades]

9
00:01:03,939 --> 00:01:05,941
[gasping, grunting]

10
00:01:07,985 --> 00:01:09,528
[John] And brought him back to life.

11
00:01:10,195 --> 00:01:11,905
[car engine running]

12
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,082
[thriller music playing]

13
00:01:40,559 --> 00:01:41,560
Hey.

14
00:01:43,937 --> 00:01:45,105
Ji Moon.

15
00:01:45,189 --> 00:01:47,107
Hi, I'm Esther. Welcome to Open Road.

16
00:01:47,191 --> 00:01:50,861
[John] A drug addict on the run from
a gang of dirty cops that want him dead.

17
00:01:51,361 --> 00:01:53,238
Rehab seemed as good a place as any.

18
00:01:54,865 --> 00:01:58,076
Garry's discreet.
I've brought him clients before.

19
00:01:59,369 --> 00:02:01,997
But getting Ji off the grid,
it's just a step.

20
00:02:04,124 --> 00:02:05,125
I can't believe it.

21
00:02:06,752 --> 00:02:07,920
I can't believe he's gone.

22
00:02:08,419 --> 00:02:10,589
All right. Keep working on it.

23
00:02:13,300 --> 00:02:15,302
Uh… My associate will take you home, okay?

24
00:02:18,096 --> 00:02:19,932
- [whispers] Thank you.
- [whispers] No problem.

25
00:02:20,015 --> 00:02:22,518
- [engine revs]
- [thriller music continues]

26
00:02:29,900 --> 00:02:31,151
[John] I gotta move fast.

27
00:02:31,902 --> 00:02:34,446
The more people know a secret,
the sooner it comes out.

28
00:02:35,614 --> 00:02:38,742
Next up, falsify Ji's death certificate.

29
00:02:40,244 --> 00:02:43,830
Hitchcock's Vertigo had
a nice "faking someone's death" angle.

30
00:02:47,042 --> 00:02:49,419
I'm hoping my version ends
with less excitement.

31
00:02:51,755 --> 00:02:55,050
Sorry. Boss had my car,
so I had to take his.

32
00:02:56,009 --> 00:02:57,010
But we're good.

33
00:02:57,094 --> 00:02:58,971
Info's all there like you gave me.

34
00:03:00,055 --> 00:03:02,057
"Heart failure due to fentanyl overdose.

35
00:03:02,140 --> 00:03:04,685
The remains shipped back
to Korea per family wishes."

36
00:03:05,310 --> 00:03:07,646
The funeral home takes care
of this getting into public record?

37
00:03:07,729 --> 00:03:10,440
No need for a county clerk.
One-stop shopping's what you pay for.

38
00:03:10,941 --> 00:03:11,942
Thank you, Tammy.

39
00:03:13,986 --> 00:03:14,987
Sorry for your loss.

40
00:03:15,487 --> 00:03:17,990
- It's a process.
- Mmm. [chuckles]

41
00:03:18,073 --> 00:03:19,074
Wise guy.

42
00:03:19,157 --> 00:03:20,158
[music fades]

43
00:03:24,705 --> 00:03:26,206
[wind wheel rattling]

44
00:03:46,185 --> 00:03:47,686
[John] Vega has a blind spot.

45
00:03:47,769 --> 00:03:49,855
[intriguing music playing]

46
00:03:49,938 --> 00:03:53,525
He sees Ji as a junkie,
and junkies drop dead all the time.

47
00:03:55,694 --> 00:03:57,070
But he's not stupid.

48
00:03:58,655 --> 00:03:59,781
I have to be thorough.

49
00:04:09,875 --> 00:04:11,418
Last night I was in a hurry.

50
00:04:12,044 --> 00:04:13,545
I left something behind.

51
00:04:15,589 --> 00:04:16,673
[grunts]

52
00:04:23,597 --> 00:04:25,599
[panting]

53
00:04:32,523 --> 00:04:35,192
[thudding]

00:04:48,413 --> 00:04:49,414
[music fades]

55
00:04:49,498 --> 00:04:50,582
Almost done.

56
00:04:53,210 --> 00:04:54,378
I'm the sentimental one.

57
00:04:55,963 --> 00:04:57,673
The other guy who cares too much.

58
00:04:59,633 --> 00:05:01,343
He wouldn't be the first to think that.

59
00:05:13,146 --> 00:05:14,940
- [party music playing]
- [exhales]

60
00:05:15,023 --> 00:05:17,568
[John] I'll play my part,
do what's expected.

61
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,321
[John] There's only one response here
that'll be convincing.

62
00:05:22,823 --> 00:05:24,074
- Vega.
- [John] Anger.

63
00:05:24,157 --> 00:05:27,077
- [grunts]
- Hey, hey. Hey, hey. Back up.

64
00:05:28,537 --> 00:05:29,788
Hey.

65
00:05:30,372 --> 00:05:31,915
All right, all right. It's all right.

66
00:05:31,999 --> 00:05:33,208
[John grunting, panting]

67
00:05:33,292 --> 00:05:34,293
I had it coming.

68
00:05:36,879 --> 00:05:38,839
- [deputy 1] Let him go.
- [deputy 2] Go on.

69
00:05:40,048 --> 00:05:42,885
All right. A-All right, everybody.
Back to the party. Come on, come on.

70
00:05:42,968 --> 00:05:45,095
[John]
Hopefully that punch was convincing.

71
00:05:45,929 --> 00:05:47,139
I certainly believed it.

72
00:05:50,642 --> 00:05:51,643
[John] Last stop,

73
00:05:52,686 --> 00:05:53,687
the best part.

74
00:05:55,314 --> 00:05:56,899
Telling Danny his brother is safe.

75
00:06:00,402 --> 00:06:01,570
At least, for now.

76
00:06:06,658 --> 00:06:07,659
[chuckles]

77
00:06:10,454 --> 00:06:11,830
[theme song playing]

78
00:07:13,433 --> 00:07:14,518
[knock on door]

79
00:07:16,311 --> 00:07:17,312
Flybjerg?

80
00:07:21,066 --> 00:07:22,067
1827.

81
00:07:23,068 --> 00:07:24,403
Across the hall. Wait there.

82
00:07:24,903 --> 00:07:26,780
- Thank you.
- [door lock beeps, opens]

83
00:07:39,877 --> 00:07:40,961
- [door lock beeps]
- [sighs]

84
00:07:41,044 --> 00:07:42,087
[door opens]

85
00:07:43,505 --> 00:07:45,132
Hey. One sec.

86
00:07:50,304 --> 00:07:51,305
This fucking Kuwaiti.

87
00:07:51,388 --> 00:07:54,391
We just need him
to leave his bungalow over there

88
00:07:54,474 --> 00:07:57,686
and come sit poolside over here
by the parabolics we got running.

89
00:07:57,769 --> 00:07:58,770
And he won't do it?

90
00:07:58,854 --> 00:08:00,731
[Tom] He won't fucking do it. [groans]

91
00:08:00,814 --> 00:08:02,316
Three days we're sitting around.

92
00:08:03,901 --> 00:08:05,402
- [John] Three days?
- [Tom] Uh-huh.

93
00:08:05,485 --> 00:08:06,570
[John] Let me see.

94
00:08:08,697 --> 00:08:09,907
Maybe he doesn't swim.

95
00:08:09,990 --> 00:08:11,200
We don't want him to swim.

96
00:08:11,909 --> 00:08:15,579
We want him to sit with his friends
and discuss his illicit activities.

97
00:08:15,662 --> 00:08:17,998
Of course, I understand. He'll show.

98
00:08:19,583 --> 00:08:21,752
- Come here. You want anything?
- No, I'm good.

99
00:08:21,835 --> 00:08:23,629
Sorry to make you come
all the way down here.

100
00:08:23,712 --> 00:08:25,506
No, no, no. You're busy.
Thanks for the minute.

101
00:08:25,589 --> 00:08:27,132
- Oh. So, what's up?
- [grunts]

102
00:08:27,925 --> 00:08:31,220
Uh, this case I'm working.
I wanna download you.

103
00:08:31,303 --> 00:08:32,596
Okay.

104
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,097
Let me guess,
it's grown hairy legs and pointy teeth.

105
00:08:35,182 --> 00:08:36,517
Legs, teeth,

106
00:08:37,558 --> 00:08:38,809
and a badge.

107
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:41,522
Do tell.

108
00:08:42,105 --> 00:08:44,066
She looks like Collins. I kid you not.

109
00:08:44,149 --> 00:08:46,652
- I like Collins, but not that much.
- [Collins] I don't know, man.

110
00:08:46,735 --> 00:08:48,946
- [chuckles]
- [Collins] I… I find myself pretty sexy.

111
00:08:49,029 --> 00:08:53,617
[officers continue chattering]

112
00:08:53,700 --> 00:08:55,452
[Tom] Fucking embarrassment.

113
00:08:55,536 --> 00:08:57,538
You know, most sheriffs are cool.
Good guys, good police.

114
00:08:57,621 --> 00:09:00,290
But there's always been this group of 'em.
Bangers with badges.

115
00:09:00,374 --> 00:09:01,583
Starts in the jails, huh?

116
00:09:01,667 --> 00:09:03,252
The LA Sheriff's Department runs them?

117
00:09:03,335 --> 00:09:05,504
Uh-huh.
That's where they make their connections.

118
00:09:05,587 --> 00:09:06,588
Tell me about Vega.

119
00:09:06,672 --> 00:09:08,924
[stammering] What's his deal here?
What's his angle?

120
00:09:09,007 --> 00:09:12,803
I don't know. Price of fentanyl is down
90% in the Ez4 territory.

121
00:09:12,886 --> 00:09:14,680
And that's his jurisdiction.

122
00:09:14,763 --> 00:09:16,306
- Oh, shit.
- Yeah, yeah.

123
00:09:16,390 --> 00:09:17,432
I mean, I think he's trying

124
00:09:17,516 --> 00:09:19,935
to help someone buy out the market,
but that doesn't make sense.

125
00:09:20,435 --> 00:09:22,312
What we got here is
fire sale in Downer Town.

126
00:09:22,396 --> 00:09:23,397
Yeah, that's it.

127
00:09:24,356 --> 00:09:25,858
But first, Ji Moon.

128
00:09:25,941 --> 00:09:28,902
I gotta… I gotta keep him safe
while I figure out Vega.

129
00:09:28,986 --> 00:09:31,613
- All right. What are you thinking?
- Witness protection.

130
00:09:32,364 --> 00:09:33,448
No.

131
00:09:33,532 --> 00:09:35,242
[indistinct radio chatter]

132
00:09:36,493 --> 00:09:37,703
Hold on. [groans]

133
00:09:40,205 --> 00:09:41,415
Mmm, no.

134
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:44,418
What you're asking for…

135
00:09:45,335 --> 00:09:47,379
- And let's be honest, in this economy…
- Mm-hmm.

136
00:09:47,462 --> 00:09:50,174
…a $200,000 WITSEC request
for a single witness testimony

137
00:09:50,257 --> 00:09:51,925
against a decorated police officer?

138
00:09:52,509 --> 00:09:53,760
A dirty police officer.

139
00:09:54,428 --> 00:09:55,596
Still a police officer.

140
00:09:56,722 --> 00:09:58,891
Evidence-wise,
y-you gotta move mountains, my man.

141
00:09:58,974 --> 00:10:00,559
Well, how about an eyewitness of Vega

142
00:10:00,642 --> 00:10:02,186
committing capital murder
in a hospital room?

143
00:10:02,269 --> 00:10:03,520
Come on, that's gotta be… I mean…

144
00:10:03,604 --> 00:10:06,523
While that eyewitness is in the midst
of committing a second-degree felony.

145
00:10:06,607 --> 00:10:07,941
You're saying his word's no good?

146
00:10:08,025 --> 00:10:09,151
Praise be.

147
00:10:09,818 --> 00:10:11,528
[indistinct radio chatter]

148
00:10:11,612 --> 00:10:12,613
Copy.

149
00:10:13,447 --> 00:10:14,865
You were right. Pool time.

150
00:10:15,824 --> 00:10:18,577
Look, I'm not saying anything
other than it's a long shot.

151
00:10:18,660 --> 00:10:20,120
- But I will check with my guy…
- [door opens]

152
00:10:20,204 --> 00:10:21,538
- …at the US Attorneys'.
- Good enough.

153
00:10:21,622 --> 00:10:23,123
- I got to get back.
- [John] Right.

154
00:10:23,999 --> 00:10:25,751
But you know the thing
that's bothering me?

155
00:10:26,335 --> 00:10:29,296
This whole buy-back-the-market thing,
it… [stammers] …makes no sense.

156
00:10:29,379 --> 00:10:32,591
I know. It means Downer Town,
Downtown, Westlake.

157
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,719
- Yeah.
- [Tom] That's Sergey's market.

158
00:10:35,802 --> 00:10:37,054
[John] I know.

159
00:10:37,137 --> 00:10:39,056
This whole city is Sergey's market.

160
00:10:39,139 --> 00:10:42,267
Okay. Let me reach out to the DA.
I'll let you know what she says.

161
00:10:42,351 --> 00:10:43,393
[John] Thanks.

162
00:10:44,061 --> 00:10:45,395
[door opens]

163
00:10:46,522 --> 00:10:47,523
- [sighs]
- [door closes]

164
00:10:47,606 --> 00:10:49,107
Yeah, he's dead. It's confirmed.

165
00:10:51,944 --> 00:10:54,446
Well, it handled itself.

166
00:10:56,156 --> 00:10:59,243
[smacks lips] I understand.
Yeah, I understand.

167
00:10:59,326 --> 00:11:01,954
[inhales deeply] No more problems, yeah.

168
00:11:04,122 --> 00:11:05,123
[phone beeps]

169
00:11:05,832 --> 00:11:07,584
[John] Vega won't believe his luck.

170
00:11:08,126 --> 00:11:11,880
He'll hope he's in the clear.
But he'll be watching me just in case.

171
00:11:11,964 --> 00:11:13,966
[dreamy music playing]

172
00:11:16,635 --> 00:11:19,596
- [John] That's fine.
- [tour guide] Right here is Stage 17…

173
00:11:19,680 --> 00:11:20,764
[John] Let him watch.

174
00:11:20,848 --> 00:11:24,977
That, you film buffs might recognize
as the second floor reader's department

00:11:25,060 --> 00:11:28,146
from Billy Wilder's Sunset Boulevard.

176
00:11:28,230 --> 00:11:29,565
- We're gonna go--
- "There I was, a writer,

177
00:11:29,648 --> 00:11:31,024
- sitting at a window."
- [chuckles]

178
00:11:31,108 --> 00:11:33,569
- You know it. He's a film buff, this guy.
- Yeah, a little bit.

179
00:11:34,736 --> 00:11:39,658
[tour guide] Alfred Hitchcock was
notorious for his disregard of the rules.

180
00:11:39,741 --> 00:11:43,954
So, when the studio bosses moved
his office to a closer location

181
00:11:44,037 --> 00:11:47,499
so that they might keep an eye on him
through its large picture window…

182
00:11:47,583 --> 00:11:49,877
Here we are at the New York back lot

183
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:55,090
which boasts its very own Brooklyn,
Greenwich Village, Soho…

184
00:11:55,174 --> 00:11:59,511
Audrey Hepburn's Breakfast at Tiffany's
was actually shot right here.

185
00:11:59,595 --> 00:12:01,138
Does anyone here like
Breakfast at Tiffany's?

186
00:12:01,221 --> 00:12:03,223
- I love that movie.
- Yeah. Love.

187
00:12:04,641 --> 00:12:06,310
[tour guide] All right, everyone.

188
00:12:06,894 --> 00:12:07,978
Here we are.

189
00:12:08,729 --> 00:12:10,647
Hope you all enjoyed the tour.

190
00:12:10,731 --> 00:12:12,441
- Have a great day…
- Nice to meet you.

191
00:12:12,524 --> 00:12:13,901
- …enjoy your flights.
- Bye, all.

192
00:12:13,984 --> 00:12:15,861
- Get home safe. Have a safe flight.
- [tourists] Bye!

193
00:12:15,944 --> 00:12:16,945
[tour guide] Bye-bye.

194
00:12:17,029 --> 00:12:19,740
Hey, I still can't get my head around
that Rear Window story.

195
00:12:19,823 --> 00:12:22,326
I mean, Hitchcock dug down
into the basement of a soundstage

196
00:12:22,409 --> 00:12:23,660
so that he could build a whole

197
00:12:23,744 --> 00:12:24,870
- apartment block inside?
- I know.

198
00:12:24,953 --> 00:12:26,955
- He was a mad man.
- I know. And it worked too.

199
00:12:27,039 --> 00:12:28,749
- Yeah, It worked beautifully.
- [chuckles]

200
00:12:29,249 --> 00:12:31,335
- One more time around, Mr. Sugar?
- Yes, please, Steff.

208
00:13:03,450 --> 00:13:06,620
So, Len Pankow says what happened
at this fucking Chinese restaurant.

209
00:13:06,703 --> 00:13:08,080
Japanese.

210
00:13:10,832 --> 00:13:12,376
Why did you do that?

211
00:13:13,001 --> 00:13:15,379
It was right there in hand for you.

212
00:13:17,673 --> 00:13:18,674
Tell me why.

213
00:13:19,550 --> 00:13:21,134
The guy was talking shit, so…

214
00:13:21,218 --> 00:13:23,387
[inhales deeply]
…I'm not gonna be disrespected.

215
00:13:23,470 --> 00:13:25,347
So you disrespect yourself?

216
00:13:25,973 --> 00:13:30,602
You throw away your chances
so you can be like your fucking brother?

217
00:13:30,686 --> 00:13:32,312
Ji's got nothing to do with this.

218
00:13:33,856 --> 00:13:35,524

219
00:13:38,443 --> 00:13:39,945
[in English] Look, Teddy, I'm…

220
00:13:41,154 --> 00:13:43,323
I'm grateful for all
that you've done for me.

221
00:13:44,157 --> 00:13:46,869
But if you talk shit one more time
about my brother…

222
00:13:48,328 --> 00:13:49,872
I'm gonna hit you in the face.

223
00:13:52,249 --> 00:13:53,250

224
00:13:53,876 --> 00:13:54,960

I decided to follow up on my other case.

230

Specifically the professor I saw
meeting with Senator Pavich.

231
00:14:33,707 --> 00:14:36,043
He's gonna help me
get to the bottom of things.

232

00:21:46,473 --> 00:21:47,558
Uh, to meet someone.

331
00:21:50,602 --> 00:21:52,688
You got a lot of secrets, bro. [chuckles]

So do you.

333
00:21:54,565 --> 00:21:57,484
Right, touché.
I'm gonna go get that phone.

- All right. Let me know how it goes.
- I will.

of the job.

but I gotta admit,

337
00:22:16,545 --> 00:22:19,256

338
00:22:19,923 --> 00:22:23,427

for a good cause, it's necessary.

You know, they're not.

350
00:22:53,582 --> 00:22:54,750
Prickly pear. They're…

351
00:22:55,667 --> 00:22:59,922
They're tougher than they look.
They're really efficient at storing water.

352
00:23:01,089 --> 00:23:02,257
[John] You mind?

353
00:23:02,341 --> 00:23:06,136
You know, all they need is
a little sun and time, and they'll flower.

354
00:23:08,055 --> 00:23:09,515
[sucks teeth] You study xerophytes?

355
00:23:10,015 --> 00:23:12,768
Mm-mmm. No, I mean, I just started.

356
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:15,896
I'm hooked already.

357
00:23:16,522 --> 00:23:18,023
- [chuckles]
- You?

358
00:23:18,857 --> 00:23:20,692
Mmm. Yeah, it's a…

359
00:23:21,777 --> 00:23:23,362
It's a hobby I enjoy.

360
00:23:24,279 --> 00:23:25,280
Yeah, I just…

361
00:23:26,281 --> 00:23:27,407
I admire them.

362
00:23:28,659 --> 00:23:30,744
Really? In-In what ways?

363
00:23:32,246 --> 00:23:33,247
Um…

364
00:23:34,289 --> 00:23:37,876
In their ability to not just survive
but thrive on the bare minimum.

365
00:23:39,586 --> 00:23:41,046
Beauty in the face of adversity.

366
00:23:42,005 --> 00:23:43,799
That kind of thing. You know what I mean?

367
00:23:46,051 --> 00:23:47,344
[chuckling] I do.

368
00:23:53,392 --> 00:23:54,977
[chewing]

369
00:24:05,279 --> 00:24:06,280
[sighs]

370
00:24:09,533 --> 00:24:12,536
[sighs, singing indistinctly in Korean]

371
00:24:16,290 --> 00:24:17,499
[scoffs]

372
00:24:18,458 --> 00:24:20,460
[continues singing indistinctly]

373
00:24:27,426 --> 00:24:28,927
[stops singing]

374
00:24:37,186 --> 00:24:38,937
[sniffles, sobs]

375
00:24:47,613 --> 00:24:49,114
[John] No video?

376
00:24:49,198 --> 00:24:52,910
[Val] No phone at all.
His grandma, such a nice lady.

377
00:24:53,410 --> 00:24:54,494
Yeah, she is.

378
00:24:54,578 --> 00:24:57,206
[Val] You know, she showed me
his stuff from the hospital, but nothing.

379
00:24:57,289 --> 00:24:58,749
Which is, like, impossible.

380
00:24:58,832 --> 00:25:00,876
Yeah, it's strange.
Everyone-Everyone has a phone.

381
00:25:01,627 --> 00:25:03,462
- [Val] Maybe the cop took it?
- It's possible.

382
00:25:03,545 --> 00:25:05,297
Took Ji's phone when they left the cabin.

383
00:25:05,380 --> 00:25:06,757
[Val] Shit.

384
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,675
[sighs] It was a good idea, Val.

385
00:25:10,844 --> 00:25:11,845
[Val] What now?

386
00:25:12,346 --> 00:25:13,597
What do we do?

387
00:25:14,973 --> 00:25:17,601
[John] We keep trying to make
a case against Vega.

388
00:25:19,686 --> 00:25:21,522
[John] Maybe my tastes are changing.

389
00:25:22,564 --> 00:25:24,775
It can happen. I've seen it before.

390
00:25:24,858 --> 00:25:27,152
Oh. Uh, restaurant's closed.

391
00:25:27,236 --> 00:25:28,904
- Yeah.
- Um…

392
00:25:29,488 --> 00:25:31,448
We can make you something simple.

393
00:25:31,532 --> 00:25:34,409
Maybe a salad, or a vegetable plate?

394
00:25:34,493 --> 00:25:35,494
Hmm.

395
00:25:36,328 --> 00:25:37,538
You know… [stutters] …Um…

396
00:25:39,373 --> 00:25:41,124
I've never had a cheeseburger.

397
00:25:45,045 --> 00:25:46,046
Mmm.

398
00:25:47,673 --> 00:25:49,675
[chuckles]

399
00:25:50,509 --> 00:25:51,885
[suitcase rattling]

400
00:25:55,138 --> 00:25:56,223
[clears throat] Hey.

401
00:25:57,891 --> 00:25:58,892
I thought you left.

402
00:26:00,310 --> 00:26:02,729
I had to go to London last minute,
now I'm back.

403
00:26:04,314 --> 00:26:05,399
I'm glad.

404
00:26:07,484 --> 00:26:08,861
And I-I'm sorry.

405
00:26:09,653 --> 00:26:12,072
You know, my job,
sometimes I, um… [inhales sharply]

406
00:26:14,825 --> 00:26:16,243
Thank you for your note.

407
00:26:17,661 --> 00:26:19,246
Late night snack? [exhales deeply]

408
00:26:19,329 --> 00:26:23,250
Uh, yeah.
It's a… [stammers] …cheeseburger.

409
00:26:25,502 --> 00:26:27,713
[porter] Ms. Fischer,
I'll take this for you.

410
00:26:45,189 --> 00:26:47,608
Yeah, what do you mean? A studio tour?

411
00:26:48,483 --> 00:26:49,860
Like, for tourists?

412
00:26:49,943 --> 00:26:53,071
Yeah, checks out.
He likes movies, so he goes on a tour.

413
00:26:53,989 --> 00:26:55,824
And what about this guy in Echo Park?

414
00:26:56,325 --> 00:27:01,580
Oh, yeah, uh, Dr. Stanley, uh,
Onda… Ondaatje,

415
00:27:02,247 --> 00:27:03,999
professor of Applied Engineering.

416
00:27:05,417 --> 00:27:07,503
Yeah, well,
that doesn't sound like us at all.

417
00:27:08,337 --> 00:27:10,130
That's what I'm saying. We're good.

418
00:27:10,714 --> 00:27:12,299
Quit grinding, go home.

419
00:27:12,382 --> 00:27:13,383
[grunts]

420
00:27:14,384 --> 00:27:15,511
Hey, Christopher.

421
00:27:18,430 --> 00:27:20,224
I'll go home when I fucking feel like it.

422
00:27:21,099 --> 00:27:22,434
You know what I mean?

423
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:27,481
[chuckles]

424
00:27:33,820 --> 00:27:35,822
[helicopter blades whirring]

425
00:27:47,376 --> 00:27:49,837
[John] Val had the right idea
about Chuy's phone,

426
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:53,632
but Vega found it first, right?
Or… what am I missing?

427
00:27:53,715 --> 00:27:56,760
[in Spanish] Was Jesus still
in touch with her at all?

428
00:27:56,844 --> 00:27:58,846
[Mrs. Jaquez] Yes, they were best friends.

429
00:27:58,929 --> 00:28:00,264
Confidants.

430
00:28:01,849 --> 00:28:02,850
[sobs]

431
00:28:04,726 --> 00:28:05,978
[sobs]

432
00:28:06,061 --> 00:28:07,104
[in English] Sandra.

433
00:28:10,190 --> 00:28:13,527
I went back to where we spoke before,
but Sandra wasn't there.

434
00:28:14,695 --> 00:28:17,197
I asked around. I looked all over.

435
00:28:17,698 --> 00:28:21,368
The tunnels, the underpasses,
the tent cities beside freeways.

436
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:23,161
It took me a while.

437
00:28:26,164 --> 00:28:27,165
But…

438
00:28:29,209 --> 00:28:31,962
I found her. Eventually.

439
00:28:37,759 --> 00:28:38,969
And I wished I hadn't.

440
00:28:48,228 --> 00:28:49,229
Overdose.

441
00:29:09,875 --> 00:29:10,876
[sighs]

442
00:29:12,127 --> 00:29:15,506
This place breaks your heart.

443
00:29:21,512 --> 00:29:22,513
[grunts]

444
00:29:43,033 --> 00:29:45,536
[clears throat] Teddy wants a word.

445
00:29:48,705 --> 00:29:49,957
Okay.

446
00:29:52,709 --> 00:29:53,919
Moon.

447
00:29:54,628 --> 00:29:56,421
Hey. What's up?

448
00:29:57,798 --> 00:30:01,635
What's up is you need to apologize to my
friend here, or I'm gonna kick your ass.

449
00:30:03,971 --> 00:30:05,264
Your friend's a fucking asshole.

450
00:30:05,347 --> 00:30:06,849
[breathes heavily]

451
00:30:09,685 --> 00:30:10,978
But you were cool.

452
00:30:11,770 --> 00:30:15,357
You know, you gave me a shot,
and… and I fucked it up, so…

453
00:30:17,442 --> 00:30:18,777
Yeah, I'll apologize to you.

454
00:30:20,612 --> 00:30:21,655
Sorry.

455
00:30:23,323 --> 00:30:24,658
I'm gonna kick your ass anyway.

456
00:30:26,618 --> 00:30:27,661
In Las Vegas.

457
00:30:28,412 --> 00:30:29,454
[laughing]

458
00:30:29,538 --> 00:30:31,498
Wait, what? Are you… Are you serious?

459
00:30:31,582 --> 00:30:32,791
The fight's still on?

460
00:30:32,875 --> 00:30:34,418
Totally.

461
00:30:34,501 --> 00:30:37,129
You're right.
My friend here is a serious asshole.

462
00:30:38,338 --> 00:30:40,424
And you still haven't signed
your contracts.

463
00:30:42,342 --> 00:30:43,969
Congratulations.

464
00:30:44,678 --> 00:30:46,430
Now go tell everybody the good news.

465
00:30:47,639 --> 00:30:48,640
[chuckles]

466
00:30:48,724 --> 00:30:50,309
[cheering]

467
00:30:50,392 --> 00:30:52,019
Let's fucking go!

468
00:30:56,523 --> 00:30:58,483
So, yeah, drug overdose.

469
00:30:58,567 --> 00:30:59,943
Hypoxia.

470
00:31:00,027 --> 00:31:03,572
Brain doesn't get enough oxygen,
coma, death. Drug overdose.

471
00:31:03,655 --> 00:31:05,199
- Hmm.
- My fifth of the day.

472
00:31:05,908 --> 00:31:08,619
They say the city-wide rates are way down,
but I don't know.

473
00:31:08,702 --> 00:31:10,162
Seems busier than ever to me.

474
00:31:10,954 --> 00:31:11,955
Thank you.

475
00:31:14,041 --> 00:31:15,417
Why the colored tags?

476
00:31:15,501 --> 00:31:16,502
WTNs.

477
00:31:17,252 --> 00:31:18,253
"Who To Notify."

478
00:31:18,337 --> 00:31:21,006
Um, a green tag would mean
that the, uh, deceased has survivors

479
00:31:21,089 --> 00:31:22,549
that are known and notified.

480
00:31:22,633 --> 00:31:25,928
And, uh, red tag means the,
uh, survivors are, uh…

481
00:31:26,011 --> 00:31:27,596
Known but awaiting notification.

482
00:31:27,679 --> 00:31:29,431
And the blue tag means unknown.

483
00:31:30,390 --> 00:31:31,892
Unknown like a John Doe?

484
00:31:32,476 --> 00:31:33,852
[technician] John Doe, Jane Doe…

485
00:31:33,936 --> 00:31:36,188
It just means they're dead
and there's no one to tell.

486
00:31:36,271 --> 00:31:37,940
Let me know
when you guys are finished here.

487
00:31:38,023 --> 00:31:39,858
- I wanna go over your supply sheets.
- Yeah.

488
00:31:40,359 --> 00:31:41,360
Thanks, fellas.

489
00:32:07,761 --> 00:32:09,346
[car engine stops]

490
00:32:09,429 --> 00:32:10,848
[car door opens, closes]

491
00:32:14,852 --> 00:32:16,353
[door opens]

492
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:01,732
[John] This case…

493
00:33:04,109 --> 00:33:06,445
the more I try and wrap it up
and tie it down,

494
00:33:07,529 --> 00:33:08,989
the more it claws back at me.

495
00:33:11,283 --> 00:33:13,452
It's gonna get worse
before it get's better.

496
00:33:14,620 --> 00:33:16,622
[piano playing]

497
00:33:28,300 --> 00:33:29,301
Hey.

498
00:33:30,344 --> 00:33:31,428
Hello.

499
00:33:45,025 --> 00:33:48,070
[breathes heavily]

500
00:33:48,153 --> 00:33:50,906
- Look, I'm really, really sorry.
- You should be.

501
00:33:55,077 --> 00:33:56,537
I mean, everyone has secrets.

502
00:33:57,246 --> 00:33:59,748
And everyone wants them kept secret, so…

503
00:34:01,375 --> 00:34:03,168
you know, since my job is…

504
00:34:03,252 --> 00:34:05,712
It's not always,
but often to uncover them.

505
00:34:06,380 --> 00:34:07,548
So, cameras in your room.

506
00:34:09,591 --> 00:34:12,969
Yes, so cameras in my room.
Which again, it's-it's no excuse.

507
00:34:13,594 --> 00:34:15,389
No, but it's an explanation.

508
00:34:18,225 --> 00:34:20,060
And if I'm being honest, and I mean,

509
00:34:21,061 --> 00:34:24,231
painfully honest,
I came on a little strong.

510
00:34:24,898 --> 00:34:26,733
- No, I don't think so.
- Yeah, I did.

511
00:34:28,025 --> 00:34:30,529
- Well, if you did, I-I didn't mind it.
- [chuckles]

512
00:34:32,781 --> 00:34:34,116
I think because…

513
00:34:34,199 --> 00:34:35,324
Well, this is my life.

514
00:34:35,409 --> 00:34:38,829
Traveling. Hotels,
hotel restaurants, hotel bars.

515
00:34:39,871 --> 00:34:42,583
I'm not complaining. I chose it.
For the most part, I love it.

516
00:34:43,083 --> 00:34:46,545
There are some nice hotels in the world.
Some really nice hotel bars.

517
00:34:46,628 --> 00:34:49,797
And this one ranks way up there,
but… [inhales sharply]

518
00:34:51,049 --> 00:34:52,384
Anyway. [exhales deeply]

519
00:34:54,094 --> 00:34:55,094
Gets lonely.

520
00:34:58,849 --> 00:34:59,850
[inhales deeply]

521
00:35:00,601 --> 00:35:02,561
There's this, uh, one joke I remember.

522
00:35:02,644 --> 00:35:04,813
It's pretty bad, but it's the only one
I can ever remember.

523
00:35:04,897 --> 00:35:06,899
- Oh, yeah?
- [host] Your table's ready, Ms. Fischer.

524
00:35:07,399 --> 00:35:08,942
- Okay, one second.
- [John] Uh-oh.

525
00:35:10,110 --> 00:35:11,486
- Let's hear it.
- [sucks teeth]

526
00:35:12,154 --> 00:35:13,405
Okay. What's the, uh…

527
00:35:14,990 --> 00:35:17,034
What's the one fruit
that never gets lonely?

528
00:35:21,246 --> 00:35:24,082
- The only fruit that never gets…
- That never gets lonely. Mmm.

529
00:35:24,166 --> 00:35:25,167
Give up?

530
00:35:25,918 --> 00:35:26,919
A pear?

531
00:35:30,881 --> 00:35:32,216
Yeah.

532
00:35:32,299 --> 00:35:34,676
- [snickering] Oh, my God. That was it?
- Told you.

533
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,429
- I told you it wasn't funny.
- Oh, my God, your face.

534
00:35:38,305 --> 00:35:40,682
- Your one joke and I guessed it.
- Yeah.

535
00:35:40,766 --> 00:35:43,519
- [clears throat] Enjoy your meal.
- [chuckles] You too.

536
00:35:47,356 --> 00:35:48,482
Another cheeseburger?

537
00:35:48,565 --> 00:35:50,234
Maybe. It was pretty good.

538
00:35:50,317 --> 00:35:51,693
Yeah, I might get one too.

539
00:35:52,861 --> 00:35:55,531
[romantic music playing]

540
00:36:04,957 --> 00:36:05,999
Wanna sit together?

541
00:36:07,543 --> 00:36:08,544
Sure.

542
00:36:11,588 --> 00:36:14,091
[romantic music continues]

543
00:36:16,051 --> 00:36:17,177
- Here you go.
- Thank you.

544
00:36:17,261 --> 00:36:19,680
- I'll be back with a menu and silverware.
- Thank you.

[John] Standing on the roof
of the Peace Hotel

546
00:36:35,863 --> 00:36:38,407
and watching the building lights
shimmering on the Huangpu River.

547
00:36:39,283 --> 00:36:41,076
- Shanghai's cool.
- [John] Yeah.

548
00:36:45,581 --> 00:36:46,748
[exhales deeply]

549
00:36:47,624 --> 00:36:50,919
You ever see The Lady From Shanghai?
Orson Welles, Rita Hayworth?

550
00:36:51,003 --> 00:36:53,213
Oh, my God.
This is like your fifth movie reference.

551
00:36:53,297 --> 00:36:55,507
- [chuckles] No, it's not.
- [chuckles] At least.

552
00:36:55,591 --> 00:36:58,051
"This reminds me of that movie."
"This is like that movie."

553
00:36:58,135 --> 00:37:00,429
- Guess I love movies.
- Yes, you do.

554
00:37:01,138 --> 00:37:02,306
Breakfast menu?

555
00:37:03,599 --> 00:37:05,184
Shit. What time is it?

556
00:37:05,934 --> 00:37:07,811
[exclaims] I gotta get to work.

557
00:37:08,395 --> 00:37:11,148
I gotta go. Sorry. [kisses]

558
00:37:13,775 --> 00:37:14,776
Charlotte.

559
00:37:18,488 --> 00:37:20,240
Maybe we'll go see a movie sometime.

560
00:37:22,034 --> 00:37:23,035
Maybe we will.

561
00:37:23,619 --> 00:37:25,621
[footsteps departing]

562
00:37:26,496 --> 00:37:28,165
[inhales deeply]

563
00:37:30,834 --> 00:37:31,835
[sighs]

564
00:37:40,511 --> 00:37:43,347
[sighs, breathes deeply]

565
00:37:49,311 --> 00:37:50,604
You going to hell, John.

566
00:37:50,687 --> 00:37:51,855
[John breathes heavily]

567
00:37:52,814 --> 00:37:53,941
There's no such thing.

568
00:37:54,024 --> 00:37:55,275
Yeah, you know what I mean.

569
00:37:56,068 --> 00:37:58,153
Cheeseburgers, sex, murder.

570
00:37:58,654 --> 00:38:00,322
That's how assimilation happens.

571
00:38:00,989 --> 00:38:02,366
One thing after another.

572
00:38:03,575 --> 00:38:05,953
