1
00:00:02,842 --> 00:00:04,203
Previously on Elementary...
2
00:00:04,204 --> 00:00:05,188
Oscar?
3
00:00:05,189 --> 00:00:06,674
Long time, no speak, huh?
4
00:00:06,676 --> 00:00:08,748
- We should talk about Alfredo.
- What?
5
00:00:08,750 --> 00:00:10,054
Well, I'm the one who took him.
6
00:00:10,056 --> 00:00:12,128
You help me
find my sister, maybe
7
00:00:12,130 --> 00:00:13,868
you'll see Alfredo alive again.
8
00:00:15,711 --> 00:00:17,214
Alfredo!
9
00:00:18,756 --> 00:00:19,925
Hey, I said no phones.
10
00:00:37,194 --> 00:00:38,330
Alfredo!
11
00:00:38,332 --> 00:00:39,803
It's so great to see you.
12
00:00:40,976 --> 00:00:42,614
Please, come in.
13
00:00:42,616 --> 00:00:44,657
Well, if I'd have known
hugs were on the table,
14
00:00:44,659 --> 00:00:46,398
I'd have left Chicago
a lot sooner.
15
00:00:47,973 --> 00:00:49,880
Please, sit down.
16
00:00:49,882 --> 00:00:52,792
So, you were gone so long,
I thought maybe you were moving.
17
00:00:52,794 --> 00:00:55,002
Sherlock said you
got back last week?
18
00:00:55,004 --> 00:00:57,714
I can only take my sister's
cooking for so long.
19
00:00:57,716 --> 00:00:59,220
Well, I-I just
got through with a meeting.
20
00:00:59,222 --> 00:01:02,065
I thought I'd stop by,
say hi to Sherlock.
21
00:01:02,067 --> 00:01:03,405
Actually, Sherlock
went to a meeting.
22
00:01:03,407 --> 00:01:04,710
I thought you two
might be together.
23
00:01:04,712 --> 00:01:06,987
Well, you're right
that we usually
24
00:01:06,989 --> 00:01:09,732
meet up at 11:00,
but today he was a no-show.
25
00:01:09,734 --> 00:01:12,243
Oh. Well, something
must have come up.
26
00:01:12,245 --> 00:01:16,160
Well, the thing is, he hasn't
been to St. Luke's all week.
27
00:01:16,162 --> 00:01:19,240
I thought after his relapse,
he would be doubling down.
28
00:01:19,242 --> 00:01:22,086
Oh, he has been.
Or at least he said he was.
29
00:01:22,088 --> 00:01:24,731
I mean, it's hard to imagine
he might be avoiding meetings.
30
00:01:24,733 --> 00:01:28,212
Maybe it's not the meetings
he's avoiding.
31
00:01:28,214 --> 00:01:29,518
All the stuff
32
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,058
that's happened-- Oscar Rankin,
33
00:01:31,060 --> 00:01:32,363
me getting tied to a chair--
34
00:01:32,365 --> 00:01:34,339
I only told Sherlock
a million times
35
00:01:34,341 --> 00:01:35,611
I don't blame him.
36
00:01:35,613 --> 00:01:37,888
No, he gets it.
He understands.
37
00:01:37,890 --> 00:01:41,068
And yet, I haven't seen him
since I got back.
38
00:01:43,748 --> 00:01:45,956
Well, whatever's going on,
it's cool.
39
00:01:45,958 --> 00:01:49,304
I just want to know he's okay.
40
00:01:51,582 --> 00:01:53,354
This is Eddie.
41
00:01:53,356 --> 00:01:55,463
I'm either not here
or screening my calls.
42
00:01:55,465 --> 00:01:56,770
Leave a message.
43
00:01:58,144 --> 00:02:00,585
Hey, Eddie,
it's Sharon next door.
44
00:02:00,587 --> 00:02:02,561
I think I smell gas
coming from your place.
45
00:02:02,563 --> 00:02:04,302
I'm worried you have a leak.
46
00:02:04,304 --> 00:02:07,047
I'll try your cell phone, too,
and if I can't get you,
47
00:02:07,049 --> 00:02:09,792
I'll call the gas company just
to make sure everything's okay.
48
00:02:09,794 --> 00:02:11,785
Thanks.

Original Air Date on December 10, 2014

00:03:07,338 --> 00:03:13,809
== sync, corrected by elderman ==
@elder_man
51
00:03:39,295 --> 00:03:41,114
Victim's name
was Eddie Ross.
52
00:03:41,214 --> 00:03:43,072
We had to I.D. him
with dental records.
53
00:03:43,074 --> 00:03:44,940
Stabbed in the chest
and incinerated.
54
00:03:44,942 --> 00:03:46,375
Did the killer also
throw him off a roof?
55
00:03:46,377 --> 00:03:48,276
He was dead
before the fire started.
56
00:03:48,278 --> 00:03:50,778
Figure there was a struggle,
the perp torched the place
57
00:03:50,780 --> 00:03:53,348
to cover up any evidence
he left behind.
58
00:03:53,350 --> 00:03:54,681
The neighbor-- you said
59
00:03:54,683 --> 00:03:56,683
- you interviewed her yourself.
- Yeah.
60
00:03:56,685 --> 00:04:00,287
And she smelled a gas leak,
as in natural gas?
61
00:04:00,289 --> 00:04:02,889
Well, her unit and Ross's
both have gas stoves.
62
00:04:02,891 --> 00:04:04,724
She thought maybe
the pilot went out,
63
00:04:04,726 --> 00:04:06,659
only it didn't.
We checked.
64
00:04:06,661 --> 00:04:09,427
So she must have smelled
the gasoline, got mixed up.
65
00:04:09,429 --> 00:04:11,129
But they don't smell the same.
66
00:04:11,131 --> 00:04:13,131
No, but not everyone
has your nose.
67
00:04:13,133 --> 00:04:15,099
The fire destroyed any prints
on the murder weapon,
68
00:04:15,101 --> 00:04:16,867
but you can still see the brand
69
00:04:16,869 --> 00:04:20,204
etched on the blade.
It's an archaeologist's trowel.
70
00:04:20,206 --> 00:04:21,271
Don't know yet
whether it belonged
71
00:04:21,273 --> 00:04:22,372
to the victim or the killer,
72
00:04:22,374 --> 00:04:23,706
but we're
canvassing suppliers,
73
00:04:23,708 --> 00:04:25,575
trying to identify
the person who bought it.
74
00:04:25,577 --> 00:04:27,911
Pretty sure
it wasn't the victim's.
75
00:04:27,913 --> 00:04:28,877
Most of the wear
76
00:04:28,879 --> 00:04:30,112
is on the right edge
77
00:04:30,114 --> 00:04:31,179
of the blade,
which means it was used
78
00:04:31,181 --> 00:04:32,714
by a left-handed person.
79
00:04:32,716 --> 00:04:34,783
But the musculature of
the victim's right arm
80
00:04:34,785 --> 00:04:37,184
is more developed than his left.
81
00:04:37,186 --> 00:04:38,886
Which means he was
probably a righty.
82
00:04:38,888 --> 00:04:41,322
So the owner of
the murder weapon is
83
00:04:41,324 --> 00:04:42,989
a left-handed archaeologist.
84
00:04:42,991 --> 00:04:45,025
How many of those can there be
in New York City?
85
00:04:48,796 --> 00:04:50,696
I'm sorry, I just...
86
00:04:50,698 --> 00:04:54,099
I can't believe
Eddie's dead.
87
00:04:54,101 --> 00:04:56,067
According to his
Facebook page you two
88
00:04:56,069 --> 00:04:58,102
were a couple,
right up until last summer?
89
00:04:59,572 --> 00:05:00,939
You don't think that I...
90
00:05:00,941 --> 00:05:03,507
Honestly, it's too soon
for us to think anything.
91
00:05:03,509 --> 00:05:05,242
We're just
getting the lay of the land.
92
00:05:05,244 --> 00:05:09,046
We were together
almost two years.
93
00:05:09,048 --> 00:05:11,380
- How did you meet?
- Grad school.
94
00:05:11,382 --> 00:05:14,116
Um, we both
studied archaeology.
95
00:05:14,118 --> 00:05:16,952
I was lucky,
I... I got a great job.
96
00:05:16,954 --> 00:05:18,787
But Eddie, he was...
97
00:05:18,789 --> 00:05:21,056
he was still struggling.
98
00:05:21,058 --> 00:05:24,024
And it just came
between us.
99
00:05:24,026 --> 00:05:26,493
We stayed friends.
100
00:05:26,495 --> 00:05:28,963
I still cared about him.
101
00:05:28,965 --> 00:05:32,966
So can you account for
your whereabouts last night?
102
00:05:32,968 --> 00:05:36,636
Uh, I was giving a seminar
103
00:05:36,638 --> 00:05:38,637
on Iranian antiquities
down at Penn.
104
00:05:38,639 --> 00:05:40,339
I had breakfast
with Dr. Charvat,
105
00:05:40,341 --> 00:05:41,406
the department head,
106
00:05:41,408 --> 00:05:43,442
before I came
home this morning.
107
00:05:43,444 --> 00:05:45,509
All right, we'll need
his number before we go.
108
00:05:45,511 --> 00:05:47,278
Ms. Burstyn,
archaeologists
109
00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:50,314
are very protective of their
tools, so can you tell us
110
00:05:50,316 --> 00:05:53,149
how yours came to be
in your ex's possession?
111
00:05:53,151 --> 00:05:55,118
Uh...
112
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:56,786
about a week and a half ago,
113
00:05:56,788 --> 00:05:59,421
Eddie came to me and asked
to borrow some of our equipment.
114
00:05:59,423 --> 00:06:01,357
I-I gave him whatever he wanted.
115
00:06:01,359 --> 00:06:03,225
Did he say what
he was using it for?
116
00:06:03,227 --> 00:06:05,793
A dig.
117
00:06:05,795 --> 00:06:08,830
He wouldn't tell me what
he was trying to excavate,
118
00:06:08,832 --> 00:06:11,565
but he was excited.
119
00:06:11,567 --> 00:06:15,202
He said he was
onto something big.
120
00:06:15,204 --> 00:06:17,170
Big as in
“of great historical import”
121
00:06:17,172 --> 00:06:18,838
or “worth a lot of money”?
122
00:06:18,840 --> 00:06:21,440
I'm-I'm asking because,
in either case,
123
00:06:21,442 --> 00:06:23,275
he may have had
some competition.
124
00:06:23,277 --> 00:06:25,844
Um, I'm-I'm sorry, he...
125
00:06:25,846 --> 00:06:27,912
he didn't say.
126
00:06:27,914 --> 00:06:29,981
What kind of equipment
did you loan him?
127
00:06:29,983 --> 00:06:31,916
Um, stakes and buckets,
128
00:06:31,918 --> 00:06:34,084
a-a pickaxe, a shovel...
129
00:06:34,086 --> 00:06:36,286
- my truck.
- Your truck?
130
00:06:36,288 --> 00:06:38,155
He didn't have a car.
He needed something
131
00:06:38,157 --> 00:06:40,156
to carry all the gear,
plus whatever...
132
00:06:40,158 --> 00:06:42,792
whatever it was
he was digging for.
133
00:06:42,794 --> 00:06:44,527
Any idea where the truck is now?
134
00:06:44,529 --> 00:06:48,263
I think he just parked it
on the street near his place.
135
00:06:53,870 --> 00:06:56,704
So Eddie Ross's background
check was a bust.
136
00:06:56,706 --> 00:06:58,339
No criminal record,
no enemies,
137
00:06:58,341 --> 00:07:00,306
as far as his friends
knew, and no
138
00:07:00,308 --> 00:07:02,976
unusual debts. And his ex-
girlfriend's alibi checked out.
139
00:07:02,978 --> 00:07:04,811
She was in Philadelphia
all last night.
140
00:07:04,813 --> 00:07:06,780
Well, I hope she's not
in a hurry to reclaim her truck.
141
00:07:06,782 --> 00:07:08,547
It's gonna need a little while
to air out.
142
00:07:08,549 --> 00:07:10,783
This was what was in her truck?
143
00:07:10,785 --> 00:07:12,618
First two
buckets of 12.
144
00:07:12,620 --> 00:07:14,852
The rest
are in the evidence room.
145
00:07:14,854 --> 00:07:17,722
Well, I don't get it.
Eddie's big find was garbage?
146
00:07:17,724 --> 00:07:20,558
You're familiar
with garbology?
147
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,526
It's the study of rubbish.
148
00:07:22,528 --> 00:07:24,227
Archaeologists employ it
to learn more
149
00:07:24,229 --> 00:07:25,929
about different cultures.
The idea being that
150
00:07:25,931 --> 00:07:27,930
we are what we throw away,
151
00:07:27,932 --> 00:07:31,067
as were the ancient Romans
or the first American settlers.
152
00:07:31,069 --> 00:07:33,069
So Eddie's dig site
was at a dump.
153
00:07:33,071 --> 00:07:35,437
More likely a landfill.
Most of the stuff here
154
00:07:35,439 --> 00:07:39,374
is from the late '70s,
early '80s.
155
00:07:39,376 --> 00:07:41,076
From our conversation
with his ex,
156
00:07:41,078 --> 00:07:43,010
I doubt he was studying culture.
157
00:07:43,012 --> 00:07:44,812
More likely looking for something.
He was probably studying
158
00:07:44,814 --> 00:07:48,448
this refuse in order
to zero in on his prize.
159
00:07:48,450 --> 00:07:51,918
Well, if it was a prize,
why would someone throw it away?
160
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,653
One man's trash
is another man's treasure.
161
00:07:53,655 --> 00:07:56,388
Put the word “vintage” in front
of glass bottles, cameras,
162
00:07:56,390 --> 00:07:59,157
trading cards-- you can
turn a tidy profit.
163
00:07:59,159 --> 00:08:01,660
Vintage
rainbow suspenders.
164
00:08:01,662 --> 00:08:03,561
If there's money in stuff
like this, I need to get to
165
00:08:03,563 --> 00:08:05,062
my parents' basement fast.
166
00:08:05,064 --> 00:08:07,698
Hopefully, the other buckets
will yield more insight.
167
00:08:11,103 --> 00:08:14,104
Oh, hey, Alfredo came by
the brownstone yesterday.
168
00:08:14,106 --> 00:08:15,938
Oh?
169
00:08:15,940 --> 00:08:19,041
Yeah. He said you hadn't
been to St. Luke's all week.
170
00:08:19,043 --> 00:08:21,243
Uh, he's correct;
I have not.
171
00:08:21,245 --> 00:08:24,545
Just wanted to make sure
you were doing okay.
172
00:08:24,547 --> 00:08:27,648
What, you're worried I haven't
been to any meetings?
173
00:08:27,650 --> 00:08:29,617
Well, you can both rest easy.
174
00:08:29,619 --> 00:08:31,151
I've just been
going to different ones.
175
00:08:31,153 --> 00:08:32,619
Some in Flatbush,
176
00:08:32,621 --> 00:08:35,255
some in the, uh,
Kingston Avenue Jewish Center.
177
00:08:35,257 --> 00:08:36,856
Okay.
178
00:08:36,858 --> 00:08:39,525
Even though St. Luke's
is right up the street?
179
00:08:39,527 --> 00:08:41,427
Si...
180
00:08:41,429 --> 00:08:43,395
Since my relapse,
181
00:08:43,397 --> 00:08:45,296
I've had to start
my program anew.
182
00:08:45,298 --> 00:08:47,398
My “days sober” count
has reverted to one,
183
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,601
so I thought I would have
a correspondingly fresh approach
184
00:08:49,603 --> 00:08:52,569
in regards to my meetings...
all right?
185
00:08:52,571 --> 00:08:54,738
You know how conducive
I find a change of setting
186
00:08:54,740 --> 00:08:57,406
to my work as a detective.
I thought the same might apply
187
00:08:57,408 --> 00:08:59,909
to my work as an addict.
188
00:08:59,911 --> 00:09:03,446
Okay, well, Alfredo just thought
that you might be avoiding him
189
00:09:03,448 --> 00:09:04,946
because you feel guilty
about everything
190
00:09:04,948 --> 00:09:06,615
that went down with Oscar.
191
00:09:06,617 --> 00:09:09,951
What happened on that day is
no reason to avoid my friend.
192
00:09:09,953 --> 00:09:11,986
Okay, well, then you should
check in with him,
193
00:09:11,988 --> 00:09:13,821
let him know you're doing okay.
194
00:09:13,823 --> 00:09:16,524
“Reagan for President”"
195
00:09:18,827 --> 00:09:20,894
If you're thinking
about sending money,
196
00:09:20,896 --> 00:09:23,596
let me save you the trouble.
197
00:09:23,598 --> 00:09:25,664
What interests me are not
the contents of this mail
198
00:09:25,666 --> 00:09:28,167
but the fact
that it is mail.
199
00:09:28,169 --> 00:09:32,136
This arrived at this address
postmarked October 7, 1980.
200
00:09:32,138 --> 00:09:33,704
It was then discarded
201
00:09:33,706 --> 00:09:36,841
and then picked up again
and transported to a landfill.
202
00:09:36,843 --> 00:09:39,776
The same landfill
that Eddie was digging in.
203
00:09:39,778 --> 00:09:42,279
We can call the department
of sanitation,
204
00:09:42,281 --> 00:09:44,581
find out where the garbage
from this address
205
00:09:44,583 --> 00:09:46,649
was taken to in 1980.
206
00:09:46,651 --> 00:09:48,150
Find out where Mr. Ross
was digging,
207
00:09:48,152 --> 00:09:52,121
we might find out what
he was digging for.
208
00:09:52,123 --> 00:09:53,555
Okay, so this neighborhood
is sitting
209
00:09:53,557 --> 00:09:55,623
on top of an old landfill.
210
00:09:55,625 --> 00:09:57,492
It was shut down in 1982
211
00:09:57,494 --> 00:09:59,593
and repurposed
for new construction.
212
00:09:59,595 --> 00:10:01,662
Now, we know that
the garbage our vic dug up
213
00:10:01,664 --> 00:10:03,764
came from somewhere
right around this block.
214
00:10:03,766 --> 00:10:06,099
What we're looking for is the
exact spot he was working,
215
00:10:06,101 --> 00:10:08,034
along with any witnesses
who might have seen him.
216
00:10:08,036 --> 00:10:09,502
I miss anything?
217
00:10:09,504 --> 00:10:10,803
Uh, I would add that,
218
00:10:10,805 --> 00:10:12,505
given the equipment
Mr. Ross borrowed,
219
00:10:12,507 --> 00:10:14,372
he was not digging through
asphalt or concrete,
220
00:10:14,374 --> 00:10:16,208
so that could further
narrow our search
221
00:10:16,210 --> 00:10:18,510
to areas of
accessible soil.
222
00:10:18,512 --> 00:10:20,477
All right, that's it.
Fan out.
223
00:10:20,479 --> 00:10:22,680
Holler if you
find anything.
224
00:10:22,682 --> 00:10:24,448
Yeah, sure.
225
00:10:24,450 --> 00:10:26,617
Guy works for the city, right?
226
00:10:26,619 --> 00:10:27,784
Is that what he told you?
227
00:10:27,786 --> 00:10:29,219
Told me? Guy had I.D.
228
00:10:29,221 --> 00:10:30,820
The glowy vest.
229
00:10:30,822 --> 00:10:32,155
He's been digging up
the backyard for a week.
230
00:10:32,157 --> 00:10:33,957
Said something
about the power lines,
231
00:10:33,959 --> 00:10:36,658
and it's a mess back there.
I been wanting to ask him
232
00:10:36,660 --> 00:10:38,627
how much longer
he's gonna be, but I haven't
233
00:10:38,629 --> 00:10:40,062
seen the guy for a few days.
234
00:10:40,064 --> 00:10:42,597
Would you mind
showing me the spot?
235
00:10:46,369 --> 00:10:48,301
What are you doing?
236
00:10:48,303 --> 00:10:50,370
These were chained
to a lamppost down the street.
237
00:10:50,372 --> 00:10:53,240
And you figured
you'd steal them?
238
00:10:53,242 --> 00:10:55,341
I'm re-stealing them.
I peruse the crime blotter
239
00:10:55,343 --> 00:10:58,077
when I'm bored, and these were
stolen in Chelsea last month.
240
00:10:58,079 --> 00:10:59,345
And you're just gonna walk
around with 'em
241
00:10:59,347 --> 00:11:00,512
for the rest of the day?
242
00:11:00,514 --> 00:11:02,380
Oh, don't be ridiculous.
This one's for you.
243
00:11:06,253 --> 00:11:07,719
Watson?
244
00:11:07,721 --> 00:11:09,186
I'm behind the townhouses
245
00:11:09,188 --> 00:11:11,421
down the block.
You guys should get over here.
246
00:11:11,423 --> 00:11:12,589
You found the dig site?
247
00:11:12,591 --> 00:11:13,857
Not just that.
248
00:11:13,859 --> 00:11:16,158
There's someone digging in it
right now.
249
00:11:28,156 --> 00:11:30,939
Look, for the last time, I di...
I didn't do anything wrong.
250
00:11:31,039 --> 00:11:33,339
You were digging a hole on
someone else's property.
251
00:11:33,341 --> 00:11:35,174
So... there's that.
252
00:11:35,176 --> 00:11:36,875
I didn't know Eddie
didn't have permission.
253
00:11:36,877 --> 00:11:38,911
And I didn't know he was dead
until they told me.
254
00:11:38,913 --> 00:11:42,047
I never even met the guy.
I mean, not exactly.
255
00:11:42,049 --> 00:11:43,080
Not exactly?
256
00:11:43,082 --> 00:11:44,849
We posted on the same
257
00:11:44,851 --> 00:11:46,584
online discussion board,
that's it.
258
00:11:46,586 --> 00:11:48,286
Can you tell us where you
were between the hours
259
00:11:48,288 --> 00:11:50,887
of 12:00 midnight
and 2:00 a.m.?
260
00:11:50,889 --> 00:11:52,756
Is that when he...?
261
00:11:53,825 --> 00:11:55,992
I-I was at a video game
tournament, at an arcade,
262
00:11:55,994 --> 00:11:58,093
out in Bayville.
I was there all night,
263
00:11:58,095 --> 00:12:00,162
I didn't leave
until around 6:00.
264
00:12:00,164 --> 00:12:02,565
I was there with friends.
I can give you their names.
265
00:12:02,567 --> 00:12:04,566
One of them even
tweeted some pictures.
266
00:12:04,568 --> 00:12:07,101
We'll look into that.
In the meantime, maybe you could
267
00:12:07,103 --> 00:12:09,404
tell us what you were doing
in that hole.
268
00:12:09,406 --> 00:12:12,439
I wanted to see if Eddie
found the games.
269
00:12:12,441 --> 00:12:13,740
What games?
270
00:12:13,742 --> 00:12:15,442
The... games.
271
00:12:15,444 --> 00:12:17,377
I thought you guys
already knew.
272
00:12:17,379 --> 00:12:19,111
I mean, you found the hole, too.
273
00:12:19,113 --> 00:12:20,546
We don't know
274
00:12:20,548 --> 00:12:22,315
what Eddie was looking for,
so tell us.
275
00:12:22,317 --> 00:12:25,050
Nottingham Knights.
276
00:12:25,052 --> 00:12:28,653
He was looking
for Nottingham Knights.
277
00:12:32,592 --> 00:12:34,858
I remember this.
It was made by a company
278
00:12:34,860 --> 00:12:36,827
called EmeryVision.
My brother and I
279
00:12:36,829 --> 00:12:38,995
had one of their consoles
when we were kids.
280
00:12:38,997 --> 00:12:40,964
Everyone did.
Without EmeryVision,
281
00:12:40,966 --> 00:12:45,334
you wouldn't have PlayStation
or an Xbox or a Wii.
282
00:12:45,336 --> 00:12:47,235
Then how would humanity
idle away its time--
283
00:12:47,237 --> 00:12:49,137
solving world hunger,
curing cancer...
284
00:12:49,974 --> 00:12:51,239
“Nottingham Knights:
285
00:12:51,241 --> 00:12:53,975
The worst game ever.”
286
00:12:53,977 --> 00:12:56,277
Allegedly.
287
00:12:56,279 --> 00:12:57,612
What do mean, allegedly?
288
00:12:57,614 --> 00:12:59,412
Nottingham Knights
was supposed to be
289
00:12:59,414 --> 00:13:01,481
EmeryVision's big
Christmas release in 1980.
290
00:13:01,483 --> 00:13:02,949
There was a huge ad push.
291
00:13:02,951 --> 00:13:05,585
But the reviews
on advance copies were so bad,
292
00:13:05,587 --> 00:13:07,052
stores started
canceling their orders.
293
00:13:07,054 --> 00:13:08,654
Yeah, says here
EmeryVision
294
00:13:08,656 --> 00:13:10,689
was worried it would
take down the whole company,
295
00:13:10,691 --> 00:13:13,191
so they cut their losses,
dropped the release
296
00:13:13,193 --> 00:13:15,526
and hauled every last copy
to a landfill.
297
00:13:15,528 --> 00:13:17,862
So this is what Eddie Ross
was digging for?
298
00:13:17,864 --> 00:13:20,564
Bunch of video games that were
so bad they were buried?
299
00:13:20,566 --> 00:13:21,999
Why?
300
00:13:22,001 --> 00:13:23,200
A company opts
not to release
301
00:13:23,202 --> 00:13:24,968
a bad product, that's one thing.
302
00:13:24,970 --> 00:13:26,936
They decide this product
is so colossally bad
303
00:13:26,938 --> 00:13:28,738
it has to bury
the whole inventory,
304
00:13:28,740 --> 00:13:30,172
that's the stuff of legend.
305
00:13:30,174 --> 00:13:32,642
Yeah, yeah,
it became this thing
306
00:13:32,644 --> 00:13:33,908
the gamers talked about
307
00:13:33,910 --> 00:13:35,410
for decades.
It was like
308
00:13:35,412 --> 00:13:38,013
- the Holy Grail.
- If the Holy Grail
309
00:13:38,015 --> 00:13:40,514
were a plodding, pixelated
failure banished to a dump.
310
00:13:40,516 --> 00:13:43,751
Every few years, somebody
would try to find the games.
311
00:13:43,753 --> 00:13:46,453
They'd get their hands
on company records
312
00:13:46,455 --> 00:13:48,621
or, uh, track down the sites
313
00:13:48,623 --> 00:13:51,391
where EmeryVision dumped
their garbage.
314
00:13:51,393 --> 00:13:53,993
This year, it was Eddie.
315
00:13:53,995 --> 00:13:56,261
He was posting updates
on the board.
316
00:13:56,263 --> 00:13:57,796
A few days ago,
he said he was close,
317
00:13:57,798 --> 00:13:59,965
and then... radio silence.
318
00:13:59,967 --> 00:14:01,766
I went over there today,
because I had to see
319
00:14:01,768 --> 00:14:03,100
if he'd actually done it.
320
00:14:03,102 --> 00:14:04,402
And?
321
00:14:05,438 --> 00:14:06,704
Look, you're the only one here
322
00:14:06,706 --> 00:14:07,838
who's been in the hole.
323
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,139
Had he found the games?
324
00:14:09,141 --> 00:14:11,041
I couldn't tell.
There was some stuff
325
00:14:11,043 --> 00:14:13,777
from EmeryVision in there,
from the right years--
326
00:14:13,779 --> 00:14:17,046
a piece of an old console,
a few recalled joysticks--
327
00:14:17,048 --> 00:14:19,415
but I didn't see any sign
of any of the cartridges.
328
00:14:19,417 --> 00:14:21,784
So maybe the killer took
the games.
329
00:14:21,786 --> 00:14:24,552
He was an obsessed gamer,
just like you.
330
00:14:24,554 --> 00:14:26,721
Yeah. Or he was just in it
for the money.
331
00:14:26,723 --> 00:14:29,056
Money? What money?
332
00:14:29,058 --> 00:14:30,857
For the games.
333
00:14:30,859 --> 00:14:32,592
Those advance copies,
334
00:14:32,594 --> 00:14:33,827
the ones
in the original packaging,
335
00:14:33,829 --> 00:14:35,062
go for ten grand apiece.
336
00:14:35,064 --> 00:14:36,162
If the... legend
337
00:14:36,164 --> 00:14:37,163
is true,
there would've been
338
00:14:37,165 --> 00:14:38,931
thousands in that landfill.
339
00:14:38,933 --> 00:14:41,500
Altogether, you're talking
about a few million bucks.
340
00:14:45,272 --> 00:14:47,272
Did I not mention that?
341
00:14:49,608 --> 00:14:52,276
'69 'Cuda.
342
00:14:52,278 --> 00:14:57,480
Owner wants 40 grand for it,
if you're interested.
343
00:14:57,482 --> 00:14:59,916
Would seem my week has
a theme of middle-aged men
344
00:14:59,918 --> 00:15:03,186
clinging to pubescent glory
via collectibles.
345
00:15:04,822 --> 00:15:07,022
Nice to see you, Alfredo.
346
00:15:07,024 --> 00:15:09,591
Likewise.
347
00:15:12,662 --> 00:15:15,463
I take it
Joan told you I stopped by.
348
00:15:15,465 --> 00:15:19,165
I've been difficult
to reach lately.
349
00:15:19,167 --> 00:15:21,601
Thought I'd explain.
350
00:15:22,604 --> 00:15:25,070
Just about
to get some breakfast.
351
00:15:25,072 --> 00:15:26,538
Want to join?
352
00:15:32,879 --> 00:15:34,512
That's not breakfast.
353
00:15:34,514 --> 00:15:37,381
Maybe not where you're from.
354
00:15:37,383 --> 00:15:39,116
Try one.
355
00:15:39,118 --> 00:15:42,018
I did. Two years,
three months, 27 days ago,
356
00:15:42,020 --> 00:15:44,387
when you first brought
a box to a meeting.
357
00:15:46,491 --> 00:15:50,159
You do realize pink coconuts
do not occur in nature.
358
00:15:50,161 --> 00:15:54,195
Everyone else loves
these donuts.
359
00:15:54,197 --> 00:15:56,698
Addicts and alcoholics
often crave sugar.
360
00:15:56,700 --> 00:15:58,932
You put frosted rocks
in a gingham box,
361
00:15:58,934 --> 00:16:00,467
they'd eat those, too.
362
00:16:00,469 --> 00:16:02,936
That's why
you switched meetings?
363
00:16:02,938 --> 00:16:05,072
Get better snacks?
364
00:16:05,907 --> 00:16:07,940
As you know,
365
00:16:07,942 --> 00:16:12,978
I've found the program immensely
helpful over the last few years,
366
00:16:12,980 --> 00:16:16,615
and my appreciation for that
support's never wavered.
367
00:16:17,518 --> 00:16:21,085
But, since my relapse,
I find the routine
368
00:16:21,087 --> 00:16:24,555
which used to bring me comfort--
the familiar faces, rooms--
369
00:16:24,557 --> 00:16:27,824
just reminds me
of my failure.
370
00:16:29,594 --> 00:16:32,395
And I'm one
of those familiar faces.
371
00:16:32,397 --> 00:16:36,431
In... context, yeah.
372
00:16:39,203 --> 00:16:41,669
Well, it's like
I always told you--
373
00:16:41,671 --> 00:16:44,772
you gotta be selfish, do what's
right for you. Whatever it takes
374
00:16:44,774 --> 00:16:46,374
to stay sober. Just...
375
00:16:46,376 --> 00:16:49,309
It's the only thing
that matters.
376
00:16:49,311 --> 00:16:52,879
Obviously, my new regimen
should not affect our friendship
377
00:16:52,881 --> 00:16:55,247
outside of the meetings.
378
00:16:55,249 --> 00:16:58,784
Of course.
379
00:17:00,588 --> 00:17:04,355
So, you... find
a new sponsor yet?
380
00:17:04,357 --> 00:17:09,026
His predecessor
has proven difficult to replace.
381
00:17:09,028 --> 00:17:10,127
Hm.
382
00:17:10,129 --> 00:17:12,462
Well, don't take too long.
383
00:17:12,464 --> 00:17:14,331
Fresh faces are good, but...
384
00:17:14,333 --> 00:17:16,299
you don't want to try
to go it alone.
385
00:17:16,301 --> 00:17:18,901
That's the one way
the program doesn't work.
386
00:17:20,872 --> 00:17:23,238
- Sherlock?
- Study.
387
00:17:26,376 --> 00:17:28,909
Marcus and I just met with
the owner of the building
388
00:17:28,911 --> 00:17:30,377
where Eddie was digging.
389
00:17:30,379 --> 00:17:32,479
He had no idea
Eddie was back there
390
00:17:32,481 --> 00:17:34,448
until the super told him
about it this morning.
391
00:17:34,450 --> 00:17:36,616
All he wanted to know was
who was gonna pay
392
00:17:36,618 --> 00:17:38,384
to fix his yard up.
393
00:17:38,386 --> 00:17:41,087
I've been perusing the
message boards that Eddie,
394
00:17:41,089 --> 00:17:43,355
Tyler, and their ilk used
to share their appreciation
395
00:17:43,357 --> 00:17:45,157
of Nottingham Knights.
396
00:17:45,159 --> 00:17:46,358
You find anything?
397
00:17:46,360 --> 00:17:48,794
Eddie interacted
a number of times
398
00:17:48,796 --> 00:17:51,796
with a user named
IntegerOverflow.
399
00:17:51,798 --> 00:17:55,900
It appears Mr. Overflow searched
for the games himself in 2009,
400
00:17:55,902 --> 00:17:58,702
but failed to find them.
“IntegerOverflow:
401
00:17:58,704 --> 00:18:01,571
“Beachwood only had trash up
to '79.
402
00:18:01,573 --> 00:18:03,672
“ArtifactEddie:
What about Flushing Avenue?
403
00:18:03,674 --> 00:18:05,307
“IntegerOverflow: The map
404
00:18:05,309 --> 00:18:06,909
I have is spotty,
but you can have it.”
405
00:18:06,911 --> 00:18:08,477
Okay. So they were
sharing information.
406
00:18:08,479 --> 00:18:11,446
More specifically,
IntegerOverflow was sharing
407
00:18:11,448 --> 00:18:13,281
the benefits of
his past efforts.
408
00:18:13,283 --> 00:18:16,017
What's notably absent from
these posts is any mention
409
00:18:16,019 --> 00:18:19,519
of how the maps and other
materials passed hands.
410
00:18:19,521 --> 00:18:21,688
So you think
they met in person?
411
00:18:21,690 --> 00:18:24,056
That is a distinct possibility.
412
00:18:24,058 --> 00:18:27,994
If Eddie found the games
with so much help from Overflow,
413
00:18:27,996 --> 00:18:31,529
perhaps Overflow felt entitled
to the spoils.
414
00:18:31,531 --> 00:18:34,599
Is there any way
to get Overflow's real name?
415
00:18:34,601 --> 00:18:37,068
I have put that very question
to our friends at Everyone.
416
00:18:37,070 --> 00:18:39,270
I should be hearing back
shortly.
417
00:18:40,273 --> 00:18:41,639
Though I'm loathe to imagine
418
00:18:41,641 --> 00:18:44,474
what fresh tortures they will
conjure up as payment.
419
00:18:45,677 --> 00:18:47,343
Oh. How'd it go with Alfredo?
420
00:18:49,147 --> 00:18:50,880
We are both aware
of the unintended
421
00:18:50,882 --> 00:18:54,883
yet unavoidable consequences
to my changes in routine.
422
00:18:54,885 --> 00:18:57,619
When we made the transition
from sponsorship to friendship,
423
00:18:57,621 --> 00:19:00,054
we made the occasional effort
to socialize.
424
00:19:00,056 --> 00:19:03,591
But it became apparent that our
shared experience in recovery
425
00:19:03,593 --> 00:19:05,825
was our friendship.
426
00:19:05,827 --> 00:19:09,829
So I guess you two
don't have much else in common.
427
00:19:09,831 --> 00:19:13,065
In the same way that many drug
users only relate to one another
428
00:19:13,067 --> 00:19:15,367
because they use drugs,
the thing that Alfredo and I
429
00:19:15,369 --> 00:19:18,937
did together was not use them,
so...
430
00:19:18,939 --> 00:19:21,572
It is a conundrum, to be sure.
431
00:19:32,117 --> 00:19:34,617
It's from Everyone.
432
00:19:56,237 --> 00:19:59,272
“Finish me”
433
00:20:08,948 --> 00:20:09,880
Look out!
434
00:20:09,882 --> 00:20:11,315
I'm looking out.
435
00:20:11,317 --> 00:20:12,583
You have to go left. Left!
436
00:20:12,585 --> 00:20:14,918
- Do you mind?
- Trying to help.
437
00:20:16,154 --> 00:20:17,520
Your help has just resulted
438
00:20:17,522 --> 00:20:19,255
in that man's murder.
439
00:20:19,257 --> 00:20:20,523
- Again.
- Okay,
440
00:20:20,525 --> 00:20:22,091
first of all,
he wasn't murdered--
441
00:20:22,093 --> 00:20:23,459
he was zapped
into another dimension.
442
00:20:23,461 --> 00:20:25,227
And second of all,
he still has two lives left.
443
00:20:25,229 --> 00:20:27,296
Yes, yes, of course, that's
what happens in real life.
444
00:20:27,298 --> 00:20:28,963
If you die, you get
two more chances.
445
00:20:28,965 --> 00:20:30,898
Somewhere, two
more Eddie Rosses
446
00:20:30,900 --> 00:20:32,967
have just resumed
digging their hole.
447
00:20:32,969 --> 00:20:35,369
Okay, don't get grumpy with me
just because Everyone
448
00:20:35,371 --> 00:20:37,270
is making you finish
this old video game.
449
00:20:37,272 --> 00:20:39,072
What are you even supposed to do
once you're finished?
450
00:20:39,074 --> 00:20:40,841
- It's not like they left us instructions.
- Well, obviously
451
00:20:40,843 --> 00:20:42,341
they want proof that I
finished the game. So I'm sure
452
00:20:42,343 --> 00:20:43,909
a photograph of the final
screen will suffice.
453
00:20:43,911 --> 00:20:45,311
And then Everyone
will provide us
454
00:20:45,313 --> 00:20:47,646
with IntegerOverflow's
real name.
455
00:20:51,985 --> 00:20:54,586
May I?
456
00:20:59,091 --> 00:21:01,325
According to my research,
Swords of Saturn
457
00:21:01,327 --> 00:21:04,327
was one of the best
games of the era.
458
00:21:04,329 --> 00:21:05,995
If Nottingham Knights was one
of the worst,
459
00:21:05,997 --> 00:21:10,098
then consignment to a landfill
was too kind a fate.
460
00:21:10,100 --> 00:21:12,100
Well, it appears you
have some aptitude
461
00:21:12,102 --> 00:21:13,635
for avoiding
digital blobs.
462
00:21:13,637 --> 00:21:15,837
I told you. I had one
of these consoles growing up.
463
00:21:15,839 --> 00:21:17,071
I've played this game before.
464
00:21:17,073 --> 00:21:20,975
A fact you could've
shared several hours ago.
465
00:21:21,944 --> 00:21:23,810
Yes! Yes.
466
00:21:23,812 --> 00:21:25,478
My hero.
467
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,647
Okay, so where
do you want this sent?
468
00:21:27,649 --> 00:21:31,350
Well, it appears we don't
have to send it anywhere.
469
00:21:31,352 --> 00:21:34,319
Oh. “Sound by
Integer Overflow.”
470
00:21:34,321 --> 00:21:36,422
So making us play the game
wasn't the price of the answer--
471
00:21:36,424 --> 00:21:37,641
it was the answer.
472
00:21:37,665 --> 00:21:40,059
This is elegant, even by
Everyone's standards.
473
00:21:40,060 --> 00:21:42,994
All right. So now all
we have to do is find out
474
00:21:42,996 --> 00:21:44,895
who designed the sound
for this game.
475
00:21:44,897 --> 00:21:46,663
There's got to be
a record somewhere.
476
00:21:46,665 --> 00:21:50,767
Check the Internet.
I'm going to go ice my thumb.
477
00:21:53,838 --> 00:21:55,738
You think I killed Eddie Ross
478
00:21:55,740 --> 00:21:58,506
over the Nottingham Knights
games.
479
00:21:58,508 --> 00:22:02,510
You do go by the online handle
IntegerOverflow, do you not?
480
00:22:02,512 --> 00:22:03,578
I do.
481
00:22:03,580 --> 00:22:05,045
And can you tell us
where you were
482
00:22:05,047 --> 00:22:06,847
two nights ago,
around 2:00 a.m.?
483
00:22:06,849 --> 00:22:08,849
Here. Alone.
484
00:22:08,851 --> 00:22:10,751
You and Eddie were
in communication on and off
485
00:22:10,753 --> 00:22:12,752
the discussion board.
We think he may have found
486
00:22:12,754 --> 00:22:14,720
a stash of video games worth
millions of dollars
487
00:22:14,722 --> 00:22:16,189
thanks to your help.
488
00:22:16,191 --> 00:22:19,324
We suspect that your
career as a composer
489
00:22:19,326 --> 00:22:22,561
of ear-splitting digital
music peaked in the early '80s.
490
00:22:22,563 --> 00:22:24,362
So perhaps when Eddie
found those games,
491
00:22:24,364 --> 00:22:26,931
you felt your ship
had finally come in.
492
00:22:28,267 --> 00:22:30,534
I'm sorry. Is there
something funny about all this?
493
00:22:30,536 --> 00:22:32,302
Little bit.
494
00:22:32,304 --> 00:22:34,337
You want to let us in
on the joke?
495
00:22:34,339 --> 00:22:36,306
You're way off.
496
00:22:36,308 --> 00:22:38,174
I didn't kill Eddie,
497
00:22:38,176 --> 00:22:41,543
and I didn't take
any Nottingham Knights games.
498
00:22:41,545 --> 00:22:43,612
No one could've taken them.
499
00:22:43,614 --> 00:22:45,481
And why's that?
500
00:22:46,349 --> 00:22:48,916
Come on. I'll show you.
501
00:23:04,532 --> 00:23:06,265
I understand you're new at this,
Mr. Ostrin,
502
00:23:06,267 --> 00:23:08,666
but revealing you're
in possession of the very items
503
00:23:08,668 --> 00:23:10,568
we believe a man was killed over
504
00:23:10,570 --> 00:23:12,937
is not a great way
of clearing yourself.
505
00:23:12,939 --> 00:23:14,972
These are the games
that EmeryVision dumped
506
00:23:14,974 --> 00:23:17,374
in a landfill in 1980.
507
00:23:17,376 --> 00:23:20,843
Only no one killed Eddie
over them.
508
00:23:20,845 --> 00:23:22,445
Because Eddie
didn't find them.
509
00:23:23,982 --> 00:23:25,281
I did.
510
00:23:25,283 --> 00:23:28,750
Six years ago.
In a totally different landfill.
511
00:23:28,752 --> 00:23:30,085
And you can prove that?
512
00:23:30,087 --> 00:23:33,588
Only with about 100 hours
of video.
513
00:23:33,590 --> 00:23:35,723
I recorded every step.
514
00:23:35,725 --> 00:23:38,692
Thought it would make
for a good documentary one day.
515
00:23:38,694 --> 00:23:40,528
You were helping him
on the discussion board.
516
00:23:40,530 --> 00:23:43,730
I was leading him
on a wild-goose chase.
517
00:23:43,732 --> 00:23:48,168
Looks like you've
been on one, too.
518
00:23:48,170 --> 00:23:51,803
Sorry, but whatever Eddie found
in that hole,
519
00:23:51,805 --> 00:23:53,672
wasn't these games.
520
00:24:04,313 --> 00:24:05,946
Dwight Ostrin's
story checks out.
521
00:24:06,830 --> 00:24:09,529
And he's had the Nottingham
Knights games for six years.
522
00:24:09,531 --> 00:24:12,365
He held onto his digging
permits, video footage,
523
00:24:12,367 --> 00:24:14,601
even nondisclosure agreements
from the crew that helped him.
524
00:24:14,603 --> 00:24:18,070
Pretty thorough for a guy who was
hiding the fact that he found 'em.
525
00:24:18,072 --> 00:24:21,607
He knew he might need
to authenticate the discovery someday.
526
00:24:21,609 --> 00:24:23,741
In the meantime, he's been selling one
online, every few months,
527
00:24:23,743 --> 00:24:25,844
and claiming it was one
of the advance copies
528
00:24:25,846 --> 00:24:27,245
Tyler Eggert told us about,
529
00:24:27,247 --> 00:24:29,481
the ones that went out
to reviewers in 1980.
530
00:24:29,483 --> 00:24:31,448
Got almost ten grand apiece
for them.
531
00:24:31,450 --> 00:24:33,884
If they're so valuable,
why sit on them?
532
00:24:33,886 --> 00:24:36,619
- Why keep them a secret?
- Supply and demand.
533
00:24:36,621 --> 00:24:38,621
They're only valuable
because they're so rare.
534
00:24:38,623 --> 00:24:40,623
And there's only a small number of people
who'd spend money on them.
535
00:24:40,625 --> 00:24:42,925
Flood the market
with 1,000 copies,
536
00:24:42,927 --> 00:24:44,759
and the price would plummet.
537
00:24:44,761 --> 00:24:47,562
Best thing he could do was
act like he never found them,
538
00:24:47,564 --> 00:24:50,131
keep feeding the hype
around the legend. That's why
539
00:24:50,133 --> 00:24:51,499
he was pretending
to help Eddie.
540
00:24:51,501 --> 00:24:53,434
So where's
this leave us?
541
00:24:53,436 --> 00:24:55,436
Not quite square one,
but close.
542
00:24:55,438 --> 00:24:57,270
We haven't been able
to find anyone
543
00:24:57,272 --> 00:24:58,771
who had a problem with Eddie.
544
00:24:58,773 --> 00:25:00,406
It's possible
he walked in on a burglar,
545
00:25:00,408 --> 00:25:02,008
but as far
as his family can tell,
546
00:25:02,010 --> 00:25:04,243
nothing of value is missing
from his apartment.
547
00:25:04,245 --> 00:25:05,677
Nothing they knew about,
at least.
548
00:25:05,679 --> 00:25:06,912
What do you mean?
549
00:25:06,914 --> 00:25:08,947
Eddie was out of work
and single.
550
00:25:08,949 --> 00:25:11,883
He had nothing else going on
in his life aside from the dig.
551
00:25:11,885 --> 00:25:14,051
It still feels
like it's the best lead we have.
552
00:25:14,053 --> 00:25:15,486
So you think he went looking
for the games
553
00:25:15,488 --> 00:25:17,421
- and he found something else?
- Well, maybe
554
00:25:17,423 --> 00:25:19,489
there was some other kind
of hidden treasure,
555
00:25:19,491 --> 00:25:21,091
one that somebody else wanted.
556
00:25:21,093 --> 00:25:23,026
Send CSU back to the hole
he dug.
557
00:25:23,028 --> 00:25:25,060
See if anything
new comes up.
558
00:25:25,062 --> 00:25:29,598
I will, but the building owner
won't be too happy about it.
559
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,033
He wants the hole filled.
He gave us an earful
560
00:25:32,035 --> 00:25:33,668
when we went
to see him yesterday.
561
00:25:33,670 --> 00:25:35,637
Well, tell him I got
his earful right here.
562
00:25:35,639 --> 00:25:38,805
Feel free to give
him my number.
563
00:25:46,681 --> 00:25:48,848
Sherlock.
564
00:25:48,850 --> 00:25:50,149
Hi.
565
00:25:50,151 --> 00:25:51,984
Martin.
566
00:25:51,986 --> 00:25:53,285
Yes, I remember.
567
00:25:53,287 --> 00:25:56,521
Ah. Got your 30-day chip
last week, right?
568
00:25:56,523 --> 00:25:57,822
I did.
569
00:25:57,824 --> 00:25:59,224
Feels good, right?
570
00:25:59,226 --> 00:26:00,891
You should be proud.
571
00:26:00,893 --> 00:26:02,993
Yes, well, actually,
it's my second time.
572
00:26:02,995 --> 00:26:05,329
I, um... Prior to last month,
573
00:26:05,331 --> 00:26:08,665
- I had three years.
- Mm.
574
00:26:08,667 --> 00:26:10,900
Did better than me.
575
00:26:10,902 --> 00:26:13,535
Four relapses
in my first three years.
576
00:26:13,537 --> 00:26:15,170
Didn't think
I was gonna make it.
577
00:26:15,172 --> 00:26:19,675
But look at me now--
22 years clean.
578
00:26:35,656 --> 00:26:37,823
There's more, you know.
579
00:26:37,825 --> 00:26:39,658
What?
580
00:26:39,660 --> 00:26:43,928
Donuts. Over there.
581
00:26:47,766 --> 00:26:50,500
You okay?
582
00:26:50,502 --> 00:26:52,436
Was there another meeting here
earlier?
583
00:26:52,438 --> 00:26:57,239
Yeah, there was one at 8:00.
Why?
584
00:27:02,946 --> 00:27:04,479
Joan?
585
00:27:04,481 --> 00:27:07,048
Yeah. Back here.
586
00:27:08,218 --> 00:27:11,518
Is this everything the Department of
Sanitation sent over?
587
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,053
Yes, records for all
the other companies
588
00:27:13,055 --> 00:27:16,489
that dumped their garbage in the
same landfill where Eddie was digging.
589
00:27:16,491 --> 00:27:19,225
Hmm. Did any of them throw anything
away that sounds like treasure?
590
00:27:19,227 --> 00:27:20,960
No. Actually,
just the opposite.
591
00:27:20,962 --> 00:27:24,196
But the name Corrigan Chemical
came up a few times.
592
00:27:24,198 --> 00:27:26,198
I recognized the name,
so I did a search.
593
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,500
It turns out
that Corrigan was caught
594
00:27:28,502 --> 00:27:30,601
illegally dumping
toxic chemicals
595
00:27:30,603 --> 00:27:34,038
in two other landfills
in 1985.
596
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:35,973
You're thinking maybe they did
the same thing here?
597
00:27:35,975 --> 00:27:38,375
Say they did,
and Eddie found proof,
598
00:27:38,377 --> 00:27:40,076
and then threatened
to go public.
599
00:27:40,078 --> 00:27:42,412
Someone at that company
might have killed him
600
00:27:42,414 --> 00:27:44,413
to keep him quiet.
601
00:27:44,415 --> 00:27:46,248
Detective Bell?
602
00:27:46,250 --> 00:27:48,484
Amy Kim. I heard
603
00:27:48,486 --> 00:27:49,885
you have questions
about Corrigan.
604
00:27:49,887 --> 00:27:51,519
Yeah. This is my
colleague, Ms. Watson.
605
00:27:51,521 --> 00:27:53,187
Actually, we're
a little confused.
606
00:27:53,189 --> 00:27:54,989
We thought this
was Corrigan.
607
00:27:54,991 --> 00:27:56,857
Brower acquired Corrigan
in 1998.
608
00:27:56,859 --> 00:27:58,959
We keep this as the address
of record,
609
00:27:58,961 --> 00:28:00,594
so any inquiries come here.
610
00:28:00,596 --> 00:28:02,729
Handling those inquiries
is part of my job.
611
00:28:02,731 --> 00:28:04,597
So, how can I help?
612
00:28:04,599 --> 00:28:08,000
Actually, it's probably best
if we discuss it in private.
613
00:28:13,340 --> 00:28:15,807
This is the first
I'm hearing of any of this.
614
00:28:15,809 --> 00:28:17,409
Your victim-- Mr. Ross?
615
00:28:17,411 --> 00:28:19,410
I can assure you
he never approached us.
616
00:28:19,412 --> 00:28:22,479
Couple of hours ago,
the EPA ran some tests
617
00:28:22,481 --> 00:28:24,914
on the soil Mr. Ross took
from the landfill.
618
00:28:24,916 --> 00:28:27,350
The results showed
high levels of dioxin.
619
00:28:27,352 --> 00:28:29,185
That's the chemical your company
620
00:28:29,187 --> 00:28:30,953
was charged
with dumping illegally
621
00:28:30,955 --> 00:28:32,354
at two other sites.
622
00:28:32,356 --> 00:28:34,222
Not our company. Corrigan.
623
00:28:34,224 --> 00:28:36,091
We acquired them
after these incidents
624
00:28:36,093 --> 00:28:37,659
took place.
625
00:28:37,661 --> 00:28:39,527
Whatever they did before
isn't our responsibility.
626
00:28:39,529 --> 00:28:42,063
I could see how that would be
Brower's position, but...
627
00:28:42,065 --> 00:28:44,699
It's a fact, and to be
honest, I don't think
628
00:28:44,701 --> 00:28:47,534
- Corrigan would be held liable, either.
- What do you mean?
629
00:28:47,536 --> 00:28:50,236
They hired
an independent contractor
630
00:28:50,238 --> 00:28:52,905
to dispose
of their hazardous waste.
631
00:28:52,907 --> 00:28:55,040
They paid the full rates
for a proper disposal.
632
00:28:55,042 --> 00:28:57,543
The contractor, apparently,
cut corners
633
00:28:57,545 --> 00:29:00,311
and disposed of the waste
illegally by reporting it
634
00:29:00,313 --> 00:29:02,880
as inert materials.
635
00:29:02,882 --> 00:29:05,149
None of that has anything
to do with Brower.
636
00:29:05,151 --> 00:29:06,983
A court might feel differently.
637
00:29:06,985 --> 00:29:11,054
Maybe, but so far, the courts
have ruled in our favor.
638
00:29:11,056 --> 00:29:13,155
Three similar
cases have come up
639
00:29:13,157 --> 00:29:15,357
since I started here,
and Brower was cleared
640
00:29:15,359 --> 00:29:17,660
of liability in all three.
641
00:29:17,662 --> 00:29:20,295
I can show you the cases.
642
00:29:20,297 --> 00:29:23,198
In one of them,
the state paid
643
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:24,866
for the whole cleanup.
644
00:29:24,868 --> 00:29:29,169
In another, the current
property owner was on the hook.
645
00:29:29,171 --> 00:29:30,504
Are you talking about
646
00:29:30,506 --> 00:29:32,406
the person
who bought the property
647
00:29:32,408 --> 00:29:33,740
after the landfill was sealed?
648
00:29:33,742 --> 00:29:35,775
Yeah, doesn't seem fair,
does it?
649
00:29:35,777 --> 00:29:37,977
But that's how
the Superfund law works.
650
00:29:37,979 --> 00:29:39,612
It's like buying a used car.
651
00:29:39,614 --> 00:29:41,413
You need to check
under the hood,
652
00:29:41,415 --> 00:29:44,216
because once you pay for it,
it's yours, warts and all.
653
00:29:44,218 --> 00:29:46,685
The building owner.
654
00:29:46,687 --> 00:29:48,018
The one who was in a hurry
655
00:29:48,020 --> 00:29:49,653
to fill in the hole
that Eddie Ross dug.
656
00:29:49,655 --> 00:29:52,289
Maybe that's not just
because it's an eyesore.
657
00:29:53,726 --> 00:29:55,892
Mr. Brice, when Ms. Watson
and I visited you
658
00:29:55,894 --> 00:29:57,360
in your office yesterday,
659
00:29:57,362 --> 00:29:59,796
we asked you if you'd ever
heard of Eddie Ross.
660
00:29:59,798 --> 00:30:01,330
You told us you hadn't.
661
00:30:01,332 --> 00:30:03,732
Thing is, we went back
and had a longer conversation
662
00:30:03,734 --> 00:30:05,334
with your secretary Elaine.
663
00:30:05,336 --> 00:30:07,202
You should know,
she's very loyal to you.
664
00:30:07,204 --> 00:30:09,537
She started out insisting
she didn't remember anything.
665
00:30:09,539 --> 00:30:10,838
Once we pointed out to her
666
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,340
that she could
go to prison
667
00:30:12,342 --> 00:30:14,408
for hindering prosecution,
her memory cleared up.
668
00:30:14,410 --> 00:30:17,544
She said that Eddie
came to your office twice.
669
00:30:17,546 --> 00:30:19,713
The first time was
about two weeks ago.
670
00:30:19,715 --> 00:30:21,615
According to Elaine,
671
00:30:21,617 --> 00:30:24,183
he asked your permission
to dig behind your building.
672
00:30:24,185 --> 00:30:26,685
Your super said he claimed
to work for the city,
673
00:30:26,687 --> 00:30:28,420
so we're guessing
you said no.
674
00:30:29,890 --> 00:30:32,757
Elaine is a sweet woman,
but she's obviously mistaken.
675
00:30:32,759 --> 00:30:35,226
I don't recall
any of this.
676
00:30:35,228 --> 00:30:36,693
Which makes all of it
677
00:30:36,695 --> 00:30:38,929
“he-said, she-said” at best.
678
00:30:38,931 --> 00:30:41,565
Sounds to me like
you coerced a statement.
679
00:30:41,567 --> 00:30:43,633
We'll see if a judge agrees.
680
00:30:43,635 --> 00:30:45,401
Well, it's understandable
you don't remember.
681
00:30:45,403 --> 00:30:46,969
You're a busy man.
682
00:30:46,971 --> 00:30:49,071
And Eddie Ross's hunt
for discarded video games
683
00:30:49,073 --> 00:30:51,239
probably ranks quite low
on your list of priorities.
684
00:30:51,241 --> 00:30:53,975
But we imagine his second visit
left a more lasting impression.
685
00:30:53,977 --> 00:30:56,577
The only thing that your
secretary could tell us about it
686
00:30:56,579 --> 00:30:59,313
was that you quickly pulled
Eddie behind closed doors.
687
00:30:59,315 --> 00:31:01,482
See, we think
he'd approached you
688
00:31:01,484 --> 00:31:03,583
with evidence
of what he'd found.
689
00:31:03,585 --> 00:31:06,186
Chemical drums
that contained toxic waste.
690
00:31:06,188 --> 00:31:08,488
He had the expertise
to identify the drums.
691
00:31:08,490 --> 00:31:10,789
He had the equipment
to test the soil.
692
00:31:10,791 --> 00:31:13,592
He almost certainly
understood what he had found
693
00:31:13,594 --> 00:31:15,160
and its ramifications to you.
694
00:31:15,162 --> 00:31:17,562
Now, perhaps he came to you
in good faith,
695
00:31:17,564 --> 00:31:19,697
to give you a chance
to remedy the situation,
696
00:31:19,699 --> 00:31:22,567
or perhaps he offered
to forget what he had seen
697
00:31:22,569 --> 00:31:24,601
in exchange for a tidy sum.
698
00:31:24,603 --> 00:31:27,070
Either way,
you settled on a third option.
699
00:31:27,072 --> 00:31:29,606
I did some research.
It turns out
700
00:31:29,608 --> 00:31:31,240
your building is in escrow,
701
00:31:31,242 --> 00:31:33,309
along with a row
of adjacent properties.
702
00:31:33,311 --> 00:31:34,910
You're about 15 days away
703
00:31:34,912 --> 00:31:37,346
from closing
on a ten-million-dollar sale.
704
00:31:37,348 --> 00:31:39,247
Toxic waste would have been
a deal killer.
705
00:31:39,249 --> 00:31:41,449
You'd be out all that money,
not to mention
706
00:31:41,451 --> 00:31:43,451
facing lawsuits
from all of your tenants.
707
00:31:43,453 --> 00:31:45,686
Much easier to just
get rid of Eddie Ross.
708
00:31:45,688 --> 00:31:47,387
Right?
709
00:31:47,389 --> 00:31:50,757
Brower Chemical, the company
that bought the company
710
00:31:50,759 --> 00:31:53,659
that did the dumping, has
been cooperating fully.
711
00:31:53,661 --> 00:31:55,027
Using their records,
712
00:31:55,029 --> 00:31:57,196
we've been able
to figure out exactly
713
00:31:57,198 --> 00:32:00,232
how many drums of waste
were buried at that landfill.
714
00:32:00,234 --> 00:32:05,003
We executed a search warrant on
your property this afternoon,
715
00:32:05,005 --> 00:32:06,737
using ground-penetrating radar.
716
00:32:06,739 --> 00:32:09,273
And guess what?
717
00:32:09,275 --> 00:32:11,842
You're two drums short.
718
00:32:11,844 --> 00:32:13,309
Obviously, they're the two drums
719
00:32:13,311 --> 00:32:15,011
that Eddie uncovered
when he was digging.
720
00:32:15,013 --> 00:32:17,881
So, who aside from you, would
have had reason to move them?
721
00:32:17,883 --> 00:32:22,718
I'd like a moment alone
with my attorney.
722
00:32:26,155 --> 00:32:28,990
You're not even gonna
try to read lips.
723
00:32:28,992 --> 00:32:30,658
Their backs are to us.
724
00:32:30,660 --> 00:32:32,660
Well, it's never
stopped you before.
725
00:32:32,662 --> 00:32:34,394
Oh, how was the meeting?
726
00:32:34,396 --> 00:32:36,863
When Alfredo came
to the brownstone the other day,
727
00:32:36,865 --> 00:32:39,199
you're certain that he said
I hadn't been to any
728
00:32:39,201 --> 00:32:41,100
of the meetings
at St. Luke's last week?
729
00:32:41,102 --> 00:32:42,735
- Yes.
- And those were his exact words?
730
00:32:42,737 --> 00:32:44,837
Yes. Why?
731
00:32:50,176 --> 00:32:52,443
My client's statement.
732
00:32:52,445 --> 00:32:54,645
He admits to having
removed the drums.
733
00:32:54,647 --> 00:32:56,179
He was just getting around
734
00:32:56,181 --> 00:32:58,515
to letting the buyer know
about them.
735
00:32:58,517 --> 00:33:00,183
The sale will probably fall
through, and you're right--
736
00:33:00,185 --> 00:33:02,151
he'll probably
face some civil
737
00:33:02,153 --> 00:33:04,921
complaints-- but what he won't
be facing is a murder charge.
738
00:33:04,923 --> 00:33:06,322
How do you figure that?
739
00:33:06,324 --> 00:33:07,989
Your client still
hasn't accounted
740
00:33:07,991 --> 00:33:09,991
for his whereabouts
three nights ago.
741
00:33:09,993 --> 00:33:11,826
There's the name
and address
742
00:33:11,828 --> 00:33:13,328
of a garage out in Hoboken.
743
00:33:13,330 --> 00:33:15,462
My client's company
keeps a truck there.
744
00:33:15,464 --> 00:33:17,197
I'm sure they have
security cameras.
745
00:33:17,199 --> 00:33:18,866
I'd recommend
you review the footage
746
00:33:18,868 --> 00:33:20,668
around 1:00 a.m. that night.
747
00:33:20,670 --> 00:33:22,936
Should answer
all your questions.
748
00:33:29,310 --> 00:33:31,710
Just like he wrote
in his statement.
749
00:33:31,712 --> 00:33:33,779
He hired those workers
to move the drums,
750
00:33:33,781 --> 00:33:36,447
and he let them use
his company's truck to do it.
751
00:33:36,449 --> 00:33:38,416
And he did it
at the same time
752
00:33:38,418 --> 00:33:40,618
the fire broke out
at Eddie Ross's place.
753
00:33:40,620 --> 00:33:44,421
A despicable alibi,
but an alibi nonetheless.
754
00:33:44,423 --> 00:33:47,891
Duncan Brice is not our killer.
755
00:34:00,958 --> 00:34:03,704
- What are you doing?
- I'm punishing my brain.
756
00:34:04,054 --> 00:34:06,621
And what did your brain
do to deserve punishment?
757
00:34:06,623 --> 00:34:08,223
It's what it didn't do.
758
00:34:08,225 --> 00:34:10,925
We know that Duncan Brice
is an abhorrent human being
759
00:34:10,927 --> 00:34:13,027
who'd rather hide
evidence of toxic waste
760
00:34:13,029 --> 00:34:14,829
than protect his tenants.
761
00:34:14,831 --> 00:34:17,397
And he's almost certainly
behind the death of Eddie Ross.
762
00:34:17,399 --> 00:34:19,632
Right. He had an accomplice--
someone who went to kill Eddie
763
00:34:19,634 --> 00:34:21,201
while Duncan dealt
with the drums.
764
00:34:21,203 --> 00:34:22,569
That's why we went
to separate quarters--
765
00:34:22,571 --> 00:34:24,403
to try and figure out
who it was, right?
766
00:34:24,405 --> 00:34:25,904
I've been pouring through
the man's life for hours now,
767
00:34:25,906 --> 00:34:27,306
trying to find someone
he would plausibly
768
00:34:27,308 --> 00:34:28,640
approach for such a task,
769
00:34:28,642 --> 00:34:30,442
and I have nothing
to show for it.
770
00:34:30,444 --> 00:34:32,610
How fares your brain?
771
00:34:32,612 --> 00:34:35,913
Actually, it thinks
it found something.
772
00:34:37,516 --> 00:34:39,649
Four years ago, there was a
fire that gutted a building
773
00:34:39,651 --> 00:34:41,051
owned by Duncan Brice.
774
00:34:41,053 --> 00:34:44,687
It was ruled accidental,
but...
775
00:34:44,689 --> 00:34:46,088
the building was
well-insured.
776
00:34:46,090 --> 00:34:47,857
They payout was
in the millions.
777
00:34:48,926 --> 00:34:50,960
You're suggesting
778
00:34:50,962 --> 00:34:53,328
- this fire was set deliberately?
- It wouldn't be the first time
779
00:34:53,330 --> 00:34:56,464
someone like Brice used
insurance to finance a rebuild.
780
00:34:56,466 --> 00:34:58,066
Let's say I'm right.
781
00:34:58,068 --> 00:35:00,234
Four years ago, he
hires an arsonist.
782
00:35:00,236 --> 00:35:01,802
Then, three nights ago,
783
00:35:01,804 --> 00:35:04,471
he realized he needed
Eddie Ross dead.
784
00:35:04,473 --> 00:35:06,005
Now, Brice isn't a Mob boss.
785
00:35:06,007 --> 00:35:07,907
He doesn't know dozens
of criminals for hire.
786
00:35:07,909 --> 00:35:09,776
He only knows one,
so he calls him.
787
00:35:09,778 --> 00:35:13,278
If this was arson-- and that's
a considerable “if”--
788
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,013
it was carried out
so meticulously
789
00:35:15,015 --> 00:35:16,515
that it was never detected.
790
00:35:16,517 --> 00:35:19,150
Eddie Ross's murder
was a mess.
791
00:35:19,152 --> 00:35:21,519
The weapon used
was one of opportunity--
792
00:35:21,521 --> 00:35:23,254
a trowel left lying around.
793
00:35:23,256 --> 00:35:25,156
Now, no one goes
to commit a murder
794
00:35:25,158 --> 00:35:27,157
hoping there's going
to be a weapon handy,
795
00:35:27,159 --> 00:35:28,558
least of all a professional.
796
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:30,727
I thought about that,
and then I remembered
797
00:35:30,729 --> 00:35:32,728
something you said
in the morgue the other day.
798
00:35:32,730 --> 00:35:34,096
Eddie's neighbor
told police
799
00:35:34,098 --> 00:35:35,798
she smelled gas, not gasoline.
800
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,567
Marcus thought she got confused,
but what if she didn't?
801
00:35:38,569 --> 00:35:39,606
Go on.
802
00:35:39,630 --> 00:35:41,764
What if the killer was
planning to set a fire that was
803
00:35:41,905 --> 00:35:44,372
supposed to look like a gas
leak, but then Eddie woke up
804
00:35:44,374 --> 00:35:46,740
and walked in on him?
Once things got messy,
805
00:35:46,742 --> 00:35:49,543
there'd be no point in staging
a fire that looked accidental.
806
00:35:49,545 --> 00:35:51,645
So he replaced
the gas with petrol.
807
00:35:51,647 --> 00:35:54,613
Needed to be sure he left
no trace of himself on the body.
808
00:35:54,615 --> 00:35:58,617
Figure out who
committed this arson...
809
00:35:58,619 --> 00:36:02,420
then maybe we'll figure out
who committed this one.
810
00:36:12,631 --> 00:36:13,797
Anything you have to say,
call my lawyer.
811
00:36:13,799 --> 00:36:15,364
I'm not talking to you
without him.
812
00:36:15,366 --> 00:36:18,334
Actually, you're not going to
have to do any talking at all.
813
00:36:18,336 --> 00:36:19,836
Nice building.
814
00:36:19,838 --> 00:36:21,970
Can see why you'd want
to have offices in it.
815
00:36:21,972 --> 00:36:24,673
The building that used to
occupy this space was a dump,
816
00:36:24,675 --> 00:36:26,775
so, it's a small wonder
you had it burned down
817
00:36:26,777 --> 00:36:29,376
so your insurance company
would pay for an upgrade.
818
00:36:29,378 --> 00:36:31,812
Is the NYPD looking
for a slander suit?
819
00:36:31,814 --> 00:36:33,581
You hired a professional
820
00:36:33,583 --> 00:36:35,548
torch named
Vladimir Orlov
821
00:36:35,550 --> 00:36:38,017
to set a fire in this building
four years ago,
822
00:36:38,019 --> 00:36:40,520
and to kill Eddie Ross
four nights ago.
823
00:36:40,522 --> 00:36:42,087
No. I've never
seen that man before.
824
00:36:42,089 --> 00:36:43,555
When this building
825
00:36:43,557 --> 00:36:46,725
burned down in 2011,
the smoke detector in the unit
826
00:36:46,727 --> 00:36:48,527
where the fire started
never went off.
827
00:36:48,529 --> 00:36:49,861
The batteries were dead,
828
00:36:49,863 --> 00:36:51,429
even though
the building manager swore
829
00:36:51,431 --> 00:36:53,531
he had just replaced them
a week before.
830
00:36:53,533 --> 00:36:55,199
There was no
other sign of foul play,
831
00:36:55,201 --> 00:36:56,566
so no one thought much of it.
832
00:36:56,568 --> 00:36:58,502
But after everything
that's happened
833
00:36:58,504 --> 00:37:01,438
the last few days,
it jumped out at us.
834
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,873
We wonder-- did your arsonist
replace the fresh batteries
835
00:37:03,875 --> 00:37:06,275
with dead ones to delay the
arrival of the fire department?
836
00:37:06,277 --> 00:37:08,010
And if he did so in 2011,
837
00:37:08,012 --> 00:37:10,645
- did he also do so in 2015?
- Turns out he had.
838
00:37:10,647 --> 00:37:13,515
But when things went sideways,
and he had to undo the fire
839
00:37:13,517 --> 00:37:16,017
he was planning to set,
he put the good batteries back
840
00:37:16,019 --> 00:37:17,284
into Eddie's smoke detector.
841
00:37:17,286 --> 00:37:18,619
Unfortunately for him,
842
00:37:18,621 --> 00:37:20,254
well, and for you,
843
00:37:20,256 --> 00:37:22,990
the new fire was concentrated
around Eddie's body.
844
00:37:22,992 --> 00:37:24,991
Didn't do any damage
to the smoke detector,
845
00:37:24,993 --> 00:37:27,994
or to the prints Vladimir Orlov
left on the batteries.
846
00:37:27,996 --> 00:37:30,095
We've had him in custody
the last few hours.
847
00:37:30,097 --> 00:37:31,596
He named you
848
00:37:31,598 --> 00:37:33,298
as the guy who hired him
849
00:37:33,300 --> 00:37:35,667
to kill Eddie Ross.
850
00:37:35,669 --> 00:37:38,702
Duncan Brice,
you're under arrest.
851
00:37:38,704 --> 00:37:40,905
You have the right
to remain silent.
852
00:37:40,907 --> 00:37:44,674
Anything you say can be
used against you in court.
853
00:37:49,414 --> 00:37:51,947
You know what doesn't scare me
at all?
854
00:37:51,949 --> 00:37:53,415
Coming back to my garage
855
00:37:53,417 --> 00:37:55,717
and finding some strange
white guy let himself in.
856
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:59,287
Not like that's ever gone badly
for me.
857
00:37:59,289 --> 00:38:01,422
Sorry. I was waiting outside,
858
00:38:01,424 --> 00:38:03,558
and I got bored,
so I came inside.
859
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,392
And then I got bored again.
860
00:38:05,394 --> 00:38:07,561
You tell me you came up
with a solution
861
00:38:07,563 --> 00:38:09,429
for that wiring problem,
all is forgiven.
862
00:38:09,431 --> 00:38:11,463
So what's up?
863
00:38:11,465 --> 00:38:12,865
You doing okay?
864
00:38:12,867 --> 00:38:15,801
Uh, actually, I was,
I was wondering if, uh...
865
00:38:15,803 --> 00:38:18,103
you were okay.
866
00:38:19,105 --> 00:38:22,106
Um, the other day,
you told Watson
867
00:38:22,108 --> 00:38:24,709
that I had not been
to any of the meetings
868
00:38:24,711 --> 00:38:27,177
at St. Luke's
that whole past week.
869
00:38:27,179 --> 00:38:29,279
That's right.
870
00:38:29,281 --> 00:38:31,949
Right. St. Luke's holds
five meetings a week.
871
00:38:31,951 --> 00:38:34,450
You typically attend
two of them.
872
00:38:34,452 --> 00:38:36,452
It occurred to me
you wouldn't know
873
00:38:36,454 --> 00:38:40,355
I hadn't been to any unless
you had been to all of them.
874
00:38:40,357 --> 00:38:42,457
And then, yesterday,
875
00:38:42,459 --> 00:38:44,125
at an entirely
different meeting,
876
00:38:44,127 --> 00:38:45,694
I noticed this box of donuts
877
00:38:45,696 --> 00:38:47,795
from the shop up the street,
878
00:38:47,797 --> 00:38:49,563
that you like.
879
00:38:49,565 --> 00:38:52,800
So you'd been to that meeting
just before, had you not?
880
00:38:52,802 --> 00:38:55,401
- What if I had?
- Yeah.
881
00:38:55,403 --> 00:38:58,638
Well, obviously, it means
you're attending more meetings
882
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:00,372
than you usually do.
883
00:39:00,374 --> 00:39:01,773
And that would suggest
884
00:39:01,775 --> 00:39:04,242
that you're struggling
with something.
885
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,546
I just didn't want
to put this on you.
886
00:39:08,548 --> 00:39:10,147
Put what on me?
887
00:39:10,149 --> 00:39:13,117
I don't know. I'm... down.
888
00:39:13,119 --> 00:39:15,085
And before you
even think it--
889
00:39:15,087 --> 00:39:17,120
it has nothing to do
with Oscar Rankin.
890
00:39:17,122 --> 00:39:18,855
What does it have to do with?
891
00:39:18,857 --> 00:39:20,556
If I knew that,
I wouldn't have gone
892
00:39:20,558 --> 00:39:21,957
to eight meetings this week.
893
00:39:21,959 --> 00:39:24,994
Well, you know,
I am your friend, so...
894
00:39:24,996 --> 00:39:27,962
you could have told me.
895
00:39:27,964 --> 00:39:30,431
You just got your 30-day chip.
896
00:39:30,433 --> 00:39:33,801
And helping you
would be good for me.
897
00:39:33,803 --> 00:39:35,335
Right?
898
00:39:35,337 --> 00:39:37,971
You've always suggested
899
00:39:37,973 --> 00:39:39,740
that I should sometimes
be selfish
900
00:39:39,742 --> 00:39:42,108
with regards to my sobriety,
and yet, here you are
901
00:39:42,110 --> 00:39:45,144
with yours at stake,
and you choose to be selfless.
902
00:39:45,146 --> 00:39:46,879
♪ Religion... ♪
903
00:39:46,881 --> 00:39:48,647

906
00:39:55,888 --> 00:39:57,921
You got plans tonight?
907
00:39:57,923 --> 00:39:59,590
I do not.
908
00:39:59,592 --> 00:40:04,494
Well, close this door,
I'll cook us some dinner.
909
00:40:04,496 --> 00:40:06,629
I'll even use food
that occurs in nature.
910
00:40:06,631 --> 00:40:10,432
And that would be helpful
to you?
911
00:40:10,434 --> 00:40:12,300
Ah, I don't know.
912
00:40:12,302 --> 00:40:13,769
I guess we'll find out.
