27
00:01:44,529 --> 00:01:47,798
I'm on Conshohocken near Belmont.

Department vehicle signed

00:02:11,456 --> 00:02:14,191
Gone before I got here.
Stop writing, will you?

33
00:02:14,225 --> 00:02:15,959
Sorry, Detective. Got to fill
out an accident report on all...

34
00:02:15,993 --> 00:02:18,562
I said, stop... writing.

35
00:02:21,265 --> 00:02:22,766
Look, uh...

36
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,668
Look, do me a favor. Can you, uh,

37
00:02:24,702 --> 00:02:26,870
just make it a car stop?

38
00:02:26,904 --> 00:02:28,905
No accident?

39
00:02:30,174 --> 00:02:31,775
Right.

40
00:02:31,809 --> 00:02:33,176
Sure.

41
00:02:33,211 --> 00:02:34,511
Okay, go ahead.

42
00:02:34,545 --> 00:02:36,179
I got it from here.

43
00:02:37,114 --> 00:02:39,115
Thanks.

44
00:02:41,152 --> 00:02:43,753
Scotty... it's me.

45
00:02:45,389 --> 00:02:47,557
We got a problem.

Sync by honeybunny

47
00:03:21,561 --> 00:03:23,195
Damn, Nick.

48
00:03:23,229 --> 00:03:25,497
Is there any blood?

49
00:03:25,531 --> 00:03:26,832
A little on the airbag.

50
00:03:26,866 --> 00:03:29,167
Yeah, it looks like
he just hit the sign.

51
00:03:29,202 --> 00:03:31,636
No animals down on the road.

52
00:03:31,671 --> 00:03:32,071
You hear anything on the radio?

53
00:03:32,606 --> 00:03:33,739
Not yet.

54
00:03:33,773 --> 00:03:34,940
What about that uniform?

55
00:03:34,975 --> 00:03:37,376
Nick was gone when he
arrived on the scene,

56
00:03:37,410 --> 00:03:39,378
and I told him it's on me.

57
00:03:39,412 --> 00:03:41,413
But why ditch the car?

58
00:03:41,448 --> 00:03:43,482
Trying to duck a DUI?

59
00:03:43,516 --> 00:03:46,218
Message he left was a
whole lot worse than that.

60
00:03:46,252 --> 00:03:48,621
You think he was serious?

61
00:03:48,655 --> 00:03:51,857
I called him back five times,
and he won't answer his cell.

62
00:03:51,891 --> 00:03:55,427
I'll get it towed to my guy,

63
00:03:55,462 --> 00:03:59,264
have him... clean it up.

64
00:03:59,299 --> 00:04:01,934
What the boss don't know
can't hurt him, you know?

65
00:04:01,968 --> 00:04:04,169
He's got enough problems.

66
00:04:04,204 --> 00:04:05,270
Well, at least till

67
00:04:05,305 --> 00:04:07,239
we figure out what
the hell's going on.

68
00:04:07,273 --> 00:04:09,241
Will or Kat know? No.

69
00:04:09,275 --> 00:04:10,676
Figured it's bad enough I got you

70
00:04:10,710 --> 00:04:11,877
on the hook for this now, too.

71
00:04:11,911 --> 00:04:14,046
It's Nick, Lil.

72
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,048
I mean, they'd want to know.

73
00:04:16,082 --> 00:04:19,318
I'll have them swing by his place,

74
00:04:19,352 --> 00:04:21,487
see if he turns up.

75
00:04:26,660 --> 00:04:28,293
The guy's a mess.

76
00:04:28,328 --> 00:04:30,663
Yeah, he's been for a while now.

77
00:04:30,697 --> 00:04:33,265
Schmitty's is up the road.

78
00:04:33,299 --> 00:04:34,933
He's probably headed
home from the bar.

79
00:04:34,968 --> 00:04:36,535
Big guy with a voice.

80
00:04:36,569 --> 00:04:37,703
Right?

81
00:04:37,737 --> 00:04:39,371
He in some kind of trouble?

82
00:04:39,439 --> 00:04:41,473
What kind of condition
was he in? Whoa.

83
00:04:41,508 --> 00:04:43,709
Just so you know, I didn't
serve him more than three.

84
00:04:43,743 --> 00:04:46,011
Guy tops it off in the parking lot,
that's on him.

85
00:04:46,046 --> 00:04:47,212
Not trying to jam you up.

86
00:04:47,247 --> 00:04:48,347
Just tell us when he left.

87
00:04:48,381 --> 00:04:50,115
About an hour ago, wits about him.

88
00:04:50,150 --> 00:04:52,418
I'll cut off anybody,
cop or no cop.

89
00:04:52,452 --> 00:04:53,452
Yeah. Yeah, we got that.

90
00:04:53,486 --> 00:04:54,920
Sounds like he's become a regular.

91
00:04:54,954 --> 00:04:57,823
Every night this week,
knocking back the Manhattans.

92
00:04:57,857 --> 00:04:59,358
He get into it with
anyone at the bar?

93
00:04:59,392 --> 00:05:02,061
Not tonight. Keeps to himself,
regulars know he's a cop.

94
00:05:02,095 --> 00:05:03,762
Wait. What do you mean,
not tonight?

95
00:05:03,797 --> 00:05:05,798
Last week, some idiot came in
here shooting his mouth off.

96
00:05:05,832 --> 00:05:08,033
Me and Big Mac tossed him
before it got out of hand.

97
00:05:08,068 --> 00:05:09,601
This idiot got a name?

98
00:05:09,636 --> 00:05:10,836
What'd he look like?

99
00:05:10,870 --> 00:05:12,604
I don't know. Just some guy.

100
00:05:12,639 --> 00:05:14,273
White, medium build,
maybe thirties.

101
00:05:14,307 --> 00:05:15,474
What was it about?

102
00:05:15,508 --> 00:05:16,709
Not sure,

103
00:05:16,743 --> 00:05:18,811
but the guy was sure
busted up about something.

104
00:05:18,845 --> 00:05:20,245
You happy with yourself, Detective?

105
00:05:20,280 --> 00:05:21,447
Thought you should know.

106
00:05:21,481 --> 00:05:23,248
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I got it, buddy, okay?

107
00:05:23,283 --> 00:05:24,450
I tried to tell you,

108
00:05:24,484 --> 00:05:26,552
but you wouldn't listen!
My brother's gone,

109
00:05:26,586 --> 00:05:28,020
and that's on you now.
Know what, jackass?

110
00:05:28,054 --> 00:05:29,388
I told you to hit the bricks.

111
00:05:29,422 --> 00:05:31,523
You're nothing but a drunk bum.

112
00:05:31,558 --> 00:05:32,958
Mac, get him out of here.
How you can live with yourself?

113
00:05:32,992 --> 00:05:34,760
What does that mean?
You need to calm down.

114
00:05:34,794 --> 00:05:36,261
Come on! Just relax, man.

115
00:05:36,296 --> 00:05:37,896
Just calm down. Just relax.

116
00:05:37,931 --> 00:05:40,199
I'm all right.

117
00:05:44,170 --> 00:05:46,338
I don't know what
the guy's beef was.

118
00:05:46,372 --> 00:05:47,573
Something about his brother.

119
00:05:47,607 --> 00:05:50,976
He blamed Vera,
felt he wronged him somehow?

120
00:05:51,010 --> 00:05:53,512
Cop never bothered nobody,
so I gave the guy the boot.

121
00:05:53,546 --> 00:05:54,947
Nick ever here with anybody? Nah.

122
00:05:54,981 --> 00:05:56,248
Mostly just drinks alone.

123
00:05:56,282 --> 00:05:58,484
Last couple nights
in here looking over

124
00:05:58,518 --> 00:06:00,052
some old file photos.

125
00:06:00,086 --> 00:06:02,588
Photos? What, like,
crime scene photos?

126
00:06:02,622 --> 00:06:03,756
I don't know.

127
00:06:03,790 --> 00:06:05,224
They were dark, hard to make out.

128
00:06:05,258 --> 00:06:06,391
Like something burnt up.

129
00:06:06,426 --> 00:06:09,061
Honestly, his line of work...

130
00:06:09,095 --> 00:06:11,163
I didn't want to ask.

131
00:06:11,197 --> 00:06:12,865
Key still works.

132
00:06:12,899 --> 00:06:14,199
Whoa.

133
00:06:14,234 --> 00:06:16,435
Clearly the maid don't.

134
00:06:16,469 --> 00:06:18,971
God, just when you
think you know a guy.

135
00:06:19,005 --> 00:06:21,073
Oscar needs a Felix.

136
00:06:21,107 --> 00:06:22,775
Oh.

137
00:06:22,809 --> 00:06:25,544
Told me he passed his physical.

138
00:06:28,414 --> 00:06:30,215
Dude's a time bomb.

139
00:06:31,084 --> 00:06:33,252
Uh-oh. It's worse than I thought.

140
00:06:33,286 --> 00:06:34,653
What was her name again?

141
00:06:34,687 --> 00:06:35,921
Julie.

142
00:06:35,955 --> 00:06:37,200
Split up years ago.

143
00:06:43,934 --> 00:06:46,069
What do you got?
It's a crime scene photo.

144
00:06:46,103 --> 00:06:50,039
Something I saw nick looking
at a few weeks back.

145
00:06:55,079 --> 00:06:57,880
Hmm? What the hell?

146
00:06:57,915 --> 00:07:00,183
can't you see I'm
taking a table nap?

147
00:07:00,217 --> 00:07:01,651
Been a lot of those lately.

148
00:07:01,685 --> 00:07:03,386
What do you got?

149
00:07:03,420 --> 00:07:05,822
Some other case.

150
00:07:08,025 --> 00:07:10,026
Arson photo.

151
00:07:10,060 --> 00:07:12,161
Didn't recognize it at the time.

152
00:07:12,196 --> 00:07:15,064
J.D. Billingsley, 11/06.

153
00:07:15,099 --> 00:07:17,867
But why bring home a
four-year-old arson case?

154
00:07:17,901 --> 00:07:20,336
Might have something to do
with the guy at the bar.

155
00:07:20,370 --> 00:07:22,739
You remember this case? No.

156
00:07:22,773 --> 00:07:25,641
But the fire marshal would.

157
00:07:25,676 --> 00:07:28,411
Billingsley. Oh, yeah, I remember.

158
00:07:28,445 --> 00:07:31,714
Double homicide, arson,
couple years back.

159
00:07:31,749 --> 00:07:32,882
You worked that with nick, right?

160
00:07:32,916 --> 00:07:34,884
Yeah, that's right.
What's going on?

161
00:07:34,918 --> 00:07:35,985
He contact you?

162
00:07:36,019 --> 00:07:37,487
Any reason the case might come up?

163
00:07:37,521 --> 00:07:39,355
No. Any reason it should?

164
00:07:39,389 --> 00:07:42,058
Tell us about the arson case, ray.

165
00:07:42,092 --> 00:07:43,292
Row house over in kensington.

166
00:07:43,327 --> 00:07:46,229
Incendiary, pretty open and shut.

167
00:07:46,263 --> 00:07:47,363
J.D. Billingey?

168
00:07:47,397 --> 00:07:48,798
Joe don billingsley.

169
00:07:48,832 --> 00:07:51,701
Lit up his own place,
middle of the night.

170
00:07:51,735 --> 00:07:53,069
It was a double homicide?

171
00:07:53,103 --> 00:07:54,237
His own two boys.

172
00:07:54,271 --> 00:07:59,242
Drunk bastard had
custody for the weekend.

173
00:08:01,378 --> 00:08:04,080
Looks like a bomb went off.

174
00:08:04,114 --> 00:08:05,581
Flashover.

175
00:08:05,616 --> 00:08:08,684
Simultaneous ignition of
all combustible material.

176
00:08:08,719 --> 00:08:09,919
Flashover.

177
00:08:09,953 --> 00:08:12,255
Smoke and gas layer

178
00:08:12,289 --> 00:08:14,423
Got trapped at the ceiling.

179
00:08:15,859 --> 00:08:18,861
At 1,100 degrees,
the whole room burst into flames.

180
00:08:18,896 --> 00:08:21,030
Father said he was
asleep on the couch.

181
00:08:21,064 --> 00:08:22,265
Yeah, he also said

182
00:08:22,299 --> 00:08:24,901
He couldn't get to the
kids' room down the hall.

183
00:08:24,935 --> 00:08:26,803
Yeah, ran into a wall of flame.

184
00:08:26,837 --> 00:08:29,806
With no burns on his bare feet?

185
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:31,774
Thought he ran out the front door.

186
00:08:31,809 --> 00:08:34,310
Yeah, just let in more oxygen,
fed the beast.

187
00:08:34,344 --> 00:08:36,479
Did you see the crazed
glass back there?

188
00:08:36,513 --> 00:08:37,847
Puddle configurations?

189
00:08:37,881 --> 00:08:39,115
Multiple points of origin.

190
00:08:39,149 --> 00:08:41,884
Burn marks on the
baseboards and walls.

191
00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:44,253
Yeah, all the way down the hall.

192
00:08:44,288 --> 00:08:46,289
Seen hundreds of these.

193
00:08:46,323 --> 00:08:48,291
Most of them do it
for the insurance.

194
00:08:48,325 --> 00:08:50,893
No. This place was a rental.
Whatever.

195
00:08:50,928 --> 00:08:53,329
Fire this hot don't
occur without the use

196
00:08:53,363 --> 00:08:55,298
Of an accelerant.

197
00:08:55,332 --> 00:08:56,699
What, lighter fluid?

198
00:08:56,733 --> 00:08:59,202
Butane, propane, maybe gasoline.

199
00:08:59,236 --> 00:09:01,771
Same result.

200
00:09:01,805 --> 00:09:05,208
Got your pour patterns
on the floor right there.

201
00:09:06,877 --> 00:09:09,011
Under the beds.

202
00:09:10,314 --> 00:09:13,316
Son of a bitch burned
his own kids up.

203
00:09:13,350 --> 00:09:15,484
Then ran out of the house.

204
00:09:17,020 --> 00:09:20,323
Three and five, those boys.

205
00:09:20,357 --> 00:09:22,325
That one just about
tore everybody up.

206
00:09:22,359 --> 00:09:23,793
Including nick?

207
00:09:23,827 --> 00:09:25,795
Nick was going through
a divorce at the time.

208
00:09:25,829 --> 00:09:27,029
Rubbed him pretty raw.

209
00:09:27,064 --> 00:09:29,999
Sick bastard killed his
kids just to spite his ex.

210
00:09:30,033 --> 00:09:31,434
Nick put him away?

211
00:09:31,468 --> 00:09:32,602
Billingsley got life.

212
00:09:32,636 --> 00:09:34,937
He's lucky he didn't
get the needle.

213
00:09:34,972 --> 00:09:37,540
He didn't have the decency
to take his own life.

214
00:09:37,574 --> 00:09:40,209
Any reason nick would be
looking into that case again?

215
00:09:40,244 --> 00:09:41,410
Never said nothing to me.

216
00:09:41,445 --> 00:09:42,745
You remember if this

217
00:09:42,779 --> 00:09:44,747
Joe don had a brother?
Maybe at the trial?

218
00:09:44,781 --> 00:09:46,215
I'm sorry, I don't.

219
00:09:46,250 --> 00:09:47,350
Is everything okay?

220
00:09:47,384 --> 00:09:49,819
Well, you hear from him, ray,

221
00:09:49,853 --> 00:09:51,721
Let us know.

222
00:09:51,755 --> 00:09:53,356
All right.

223
00:09:56,159 --> 00:09:58,694
Joe don billingsley,
convicted in '08.

224
00:09:58,729 --> 00:10:00,963
Arson, double homicide.

225
00:10:00,998 --> 00:10:02,632
Doing life up in rockford.

226
00:10:02,666 --> 00:10:05,234
Was. Till he caught a shiv
last week in the yard.

227
00:10:05,269 --> 00:10:07,336
Bled out. Old joe don's gone.

228
00:10:07,371 --> 00:10:09,472
Could be the guy nick meant,
got killed?

229
00:10:09,506 --> 00:10:11,340
A loudmouth at the bar blamed nick

230
00:10:11,375 --> 00:10:12,608
For his brother's death.

231
00:10:12,643 --> 00:10:13,709
Younger brother, travis.

232
00:10:13,744 --> 00:10:15,778
Popped twice for dui,
resisting arrest.

233
00:10:15,812 --> 00:10:18,514
Well, now he's stalking nick.

234
00:10:18,548 --> 00:10:20,182
He was fired from his
last job at costco.

235
00:10:20,217 --> 00:10:21,918
We're trying to track
down a new work address.

236
00:10:21,952 --> 00:10:22,919
Travis.

237
00:10:22,953 --> 00:10:24,086
Looks dumb enough

238
00:10:24,121 --> 00:10:25,655
To go after a cop.

239
00:10:37,937 --> 00:10:39,370
Morning, lieutenant.

240
00:10:39,405 --> 00:10:41,073
Something wrong with
the air upstairs, pat?

241
00:10:41,607 --> 00:10:44,676
You know where detective
vera is, john?

242
00:10:46,010 --> 00:10:47,578
I guess I'm about to find out.

243
00:10:47,612 --> 00:10:49,580
Don't jerk me around.

244
00:10:49,614 --> 00:10:51,149
I know all about the
abandoned department vehicle

245
00:10:51,184 --> 00:10:52,450
Out on conshohocken road.

246
00:10:52,485 --> 00:10:54,252
Okay. I also know

247
00:10:54,287 --> 00:10:55,353
That one of your detectives

248
00:10:55,388 --> 00:10:56,688
Had it towed to a private garage.

249
00:10:56,722 --> 00:10:58,223
One of my detectives?

250
00:10:58,257 --> 00:10:59,658
Can't say I blame them.

251
00:10:59,692 --> 00:11:01,960
Damaged vehicle,
reeking of kentucky sour mash.

252
00:11:01,994 --> 00:11:03,061
Get to it, pat.

253
00:11:03,095 --> 00:11:04,496
That's a $35,000 vehicle

254
00:11:04,530 --> 00:11:05,897
That belongs to the department.

255
00:11:05,932 --> 00:11:07,532
And I would like to get it back

256
00:11:07,567 --> 00:11:09,134
Before the commissioner
gets wind of this.

257
00:11:09,168 --> 00:11:12,170
Good as new.

258
00:11:13,039 --> 00:11:14,906
I'll get right on it.

259
00:11:14,941 --> 00:11:16,241
As for detective vera,

260
00:11:16,275 --> 00:11:18,109
I would suggest you
find out where he is

261
00:11:18,144 --> 00:11:19,744
And just what the hell is going on

262
00:11:19,779 --> 00:11:21,246
Before the end of the working day.

263
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,515
Oh, I'll get to the bottom of it.

264
00:11:28,654 --> 00:11:30,555
Put your house in order, john...

265
00:11:30,590 --> 00:11:32,757
Or I'll do it for you.

266
00:11:37,763 --> 00:11:39,698
Travis billingsley.

267
00:11:39,732 --> 00:11:42,701
Detective valens, rush.

268
00:11:42,735 --> 00:11:44,803
That supposed to impress me?

269
00:11:44,837 --> 00:11:47,005
Supposed to jog your memory.

270
00:11:47,039 --> 00:11:48,573
Last time you saw
detective nick vera.

271
00:11:48,608 --> 00:11:50,508
Why? Something happened to him?

272
00:11:50,543 --> 00:11:51,610
Asked you a question, pal.

273
00:11:51,644 --> 00:11:52,744
How you know detective vera?

274
00:11:52,778 --> 00:11:54,379
Oh, so now I'm supposed
to help the police?

275
00:11:56,682 --> 00:11:58,216
How's that for an
impression, jackass?

276
00:11:58,251 --> 00:12:00,151
In case you need my badge number.

277
00:12:00,186 --> 00:12:02,020
This ain't a courtesy call, travis.

278
00:12:02,054 --> 00:12:04,456
You got into a bar fight with
detective vera last week.

279
00:12:04,490 --> 00:12:06,157
That wasn't a fight.

280
00:12:06,192 --> 00:12:08,426
Just tracked him down to
let him know what he did.

281
00:12:08,461 --> 00:12:09,461
Yeah, what'd he do?

282
00:12:09,495 --> 00:12:11,596
He put my brother away,
got him killed.

283
00:12:11,631 --> 00:12:13,098
Yeah, real sorry they
don't look kindly

284
00:12:13,132 --> 00:12:15,166
On scumbags who burn up
their own kids in prison.

285
00:12:15,201 --> 00:12:17,068
My brother wasn't a monster.

286
00:12:17,103 --> 00:12:18,303
Joe don didn't do it.

287
00:12:18,337 --> 00:12:20,538
Right, buddy.
Nobody in jail did, right?

288
00:12:20,573 --> 00:12:21,673
I had proof.

289
00:12:21,707 --> 00:12:22,941
I tried for months
to get detective vera

290
00:12:22,975 --> 00:12:24,142
To take another look at the case,

291
00:12:24,176 --> 00:12:25,744
But he wouldn't listen.

292
00:12:27,780 --> 00:12:30,749
Detective, detective vera,
can I talk to you?

293
00:12:30,783 --> 00:12:32,417
It's about my brother.

294
00:12:32,451 --> 00:12:33,852
What's your name, buddy?

295
00:12:33,886 --> 00:12:35,120
Travis billingsley.

296
00:12:35,154 --> 00:12:37,088
Billingsley?

297
00:12:37,123 --> 00:12:39,491
Called five times about
my brother, joe don.

298
00:12:39,525 --> 00:12:41,559
He's doing life up in
rockford for arson.

299
00:12:41,594 --> 00:12:43,028
Yeah, 'course.

300
00:12:43,062 --> 00:12:44,129
I remember. I just need you

301
00:12:44,163 --> 00:12:46,331
To hear me out 'cause the d.
A. Won't,

302
00:12:46,365 --> 00:12:47,966
And that court-appointed lawyer
my brother had was a joke...

303
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:49,134
Well, it's a little late, pal.

304
00:12:49,168 --> 00:12:50,035
He confessed.

305
00:12:50,069 --> 00:12:52,337
That's not true. Yeah.

306
00:12:52,371 --> 00:12:53,638
Check the trial transcripts.

307
00:12:53,673 --> 00:12:54,806
He admitted he did it

308
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,042
When he was in lockup
awaiting trial.

309
00:12:57,076 --> 00:12:58,743
Game over. That's just it,
he didn't.

310
00:12:58,778 --> 00:13:00,578
Check out the record on
that cellblock snitch.

311
00:13:00,613 --> 00:13:03,882
Inmate the d.A.
Put on the stand was a liar.

312
00:13:03,916 --> 00:13:05,650
My brother would never
admit to setting that fire

313
00:13:05,685 --> 00:13:06,718
'cause he didn't do it.

314
00:13:06,752 --> 00:13:08,954
Everybody's innocent in the can.

315
00:13:08,988 --> 00:13:12,891
But he never confessed to you,
did he, detective?

316
00:13:14,694 --> 00:13:17,095
Just asking you to take a look.

317
00:13:17,129 --> 00:13:19,064
Yeah, sure.

318
00:13:19,098 --> 00:13:21,266
I'll take a look.

319
00:13:24,837 --> 00:13:26,905
He didn't give a rat's ass.

320
00:13:26,939 --> 00:13:28,340
That cellblock

321
00:13:28,374 --> 00:13:30,308
Snitch has given false
testimony before.

322
00:13:30,343 --> 00:13:33,244
Cody blanchard lied when he
said my brother confessed.

323
00:13:33,279 --> 00:13:34,312
How do you know?

324
00:13:34,347 --> 00:13:35,513
'cause he done it
three times before.

325
00:13:35,548 --> 00:13:36,681
That's how come they
kept letting him out.

326
00:13:36,716 --> 00:13:38,450
So, he's a serial snitch.

327
00:13:38,484 --> 00:13:39,584
That don't mean he lied.

328
00:13:39,618 --> 00:13:41,519
Another guy he did it to got freed

329
00:13:41,554 --> 00:13:44,489
After he recanted his testimony.

330
00:13:44,523 --> 00:13:45,957
That the only reason
you tracked nick down?

331
00:13:45,992 --> 00:13:46,925
Let him know that?

332
00:13:46,959 --> 00:13:49,794
Wouldn't you?

333
00:13:49,829 --> 00:13:52,230
Lying sob snitch sealed
my brother's fate,

334
00:13:52,264 --> 00:13:54,366
And got rewarded for it.

335
00:13:55,568 --> 00:13:58,737
And now it's too late.

336
00:14:00,139 --> 00:14:02,040
Called frackville.

337
00:14:02,074 --> 00:14:03,742
Found out nick went to visit

338
00:14:03,776 --> 00:14:05,844
Billingsley's old cellblock
snitch a few days ago.

339
00:14:05,878 --> 00:14:07,879
Already landed back in the can?

340
00:14:07,913 --> 00:14:09,214
Thieving drug fiend.

341
00:14:09,248 --> 00:14:10,982
Old habits die hard.

342
00:14:11,017 --> 00:14:13,351
Anybody here seen nick?

343
00:14:15,588 --> 00:14:17,622
Not yet, boss.

344
00:14:17,656 --> 00:14:18,923
Don't know.
He's got plenty of time.

345
00:14:18,958 --> 00:14:20,759
Maybe he took a sick day.

346
00:14:20,793 --> 00:14:22,527
So that's how we're
gonna play this, huh?

347
00:14:23,429 --> 00:14:24,963
What's that, boss? Oh, cut the bs.

348
00:14:24,997 --> 00:14:26,598
I know that nick is missing,
along with his car.

349
00:14:26,632 --> 00:14:29,000
This whole mess has
already blown upstairs.

350
00:14:29,035 --> 00:14:30,769
As much you want to protect nick,

351
00:14:30,803 --> 00:14:33,371
All of you might want to start
thinking about your own badges.

352
00:14:34,673 --> 00:14:36,608
Look, we got no idea
where nick went,

353
00:14:36,642 --> 00:14:38,176
But we're on it.

354
00:14:38,210 --> 00:14:40,011
All right, look.

355
00:14:40,046 --> 00:14:41,880
Think it's got something
to do with a guy

356
00:14:41,914 --> 00:14:43,615
Nick put away on an arson case

357
00:14:43,649 --> 00:14:44,949
Four years ago.

358
00:14:44,984 --> 00:14:46,117
Got killed in prison last week.

359
00:14:46,152 --> 00:14:47,452
Billingsley.

360
00:14:47,486 --> 00:14:49,087
What does this got to do with
nick cracking up his car?

361
00:14:49,121 --> 00:14:51,556
Don't know, but it's the
last case he was working on.

362
00:14:51,590 --> 00:14:53,324
That's it?

363
00:14:55,194 --> 00:14:57,562
Is there anything else I
need to get in front of here?

364
00:15:01,100 --> 00:15:02,967
Nick's in bad shape, boss.

365
00:15:03,002 --> 00:15:04,669
Something I don't know, kat.

366
00:15:04,703 --> 00:15:06,638
It's not physical, john.

367
00:15:06,672 --> 00:15:08,907
His head's not right.
We're worried about him.

368
00:15:10,810 --> 00:15:13,511
All right, talk to ada bell.

369
00:15:13,546 --> 00:15:15,814
See what he knows about the
billingsley case. Rush and valens

370
00:15:15,848 --> 00:15:18,116
Went to pay billingsley's
old cellmate a visit.

371
00:15:18,150 --> 00:15:20,351
They're trying to track down his ex,
see if he talked to her.

372
00:15:20,386 --> 00:15:22,087
I'll reach out to
boyle over in feds,

373
00:15:22,121 --> 00:15:24,222
See if we can get a
location on his cell phone.

374
00:15:24,256 --> 00:15:25,190
We'll find him, boss.

375
00:15:25,224 --> 00:15:26,391
We'd better--

376
00:15:26,425 --> 00:15:28,359
Before he does any more harm...

377
00:15:28,394 --> 00:15:31,529
Especially to himself.

378
00:15:33,199 --> 00:15:35,266
Hey, julie.

379
00:15:35,301 --> 00:15:36,601
What's going on?

380
00:15:36,635 --> 00:15:37,802
Is this about nick?

381
00:15:37,837 --> 00:15:39,037
Have you seen him?

382
00:15:39,071 --> 00:15:41,239
He stopped by this morning.

383
00:15:41,273 --> 00:15:43,341
He didn't look so good. Is he okay?

384
00:15:43,375 --> 00:15:44,609
Just showed up at your door?

385
00:15:44,643 --> 00:15:45,610
Really kind of threw me.

386
00:15:45,644 --> 00:15:48,012
I-I hadn't seen him
since the divorce,

387
00:15:48,047 --> 00:15:50,148
And we never really
talked after that.

388
00:15:50,182 --> 00:15:52,250
What'd he want? I don't know.

389
00:15:52,284 --> 00:15:54,319
But it looked like he had
something on his mind.

390
00:15:54,353 --> 00:15:56,154
I was trying to get my kids ready.

391
00:15:58,524 --> 00:16:00,525
Hey, jules.

392
00:16:00,559 --> 00:16:03,228
Nick.

393
00:16:03,262 --> 00:16:04,996
Uh...

394
00:16:05,030 --> 00:16:08,166
Thanks. If only I
had time to read it.

395
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,702
What are you doing here?

396
00:16:10,736 --> 00:16:13,738
I don't know. Uh...

397
00:16:13,772 --> 00:16:16,007
Just felt like I needed to see you.

398
00:16:16,041 --> 00:16:18,476
How've you been doing?

399
00:16:18,511 --> 00:16:20,912
You really should have called. I...

400
00:16:20,946 --> 00:16:23,047
♪ she won't let you fly... ♪

401
00:16:23,082 --> 00:16:24,215
Is something wrong?

402
00:16:24,250 --> 00:16:25,817
No. Uh, sorry.

403
00:16:25,851 --> 00:16:27,118
You're right.

404
00:16:27,153 --> 00:16:29,320
I was just getting my
son ready for school.

405
00:16:29,355 --> 00:16:32,624
Your son?

406
00:16:33,993 --> 00:16:36,394
I know you got remarried. I...

407
00:16:36,428 --> 00:16:38,596
Clint. He just started preschool.

408
00:16:38,631 --> 00:16:39,764
Clint. Wow.

409
00:16:39,798 --> 00:16:41,132
I like that.

410
00:16:41,167 --> 00:16:42,767
I also have a
two-year-old daughter.

411
00:16:42,801 --> 00:16:44,569
That would be what you
hear yelling upstairs.

412
00:16:44,603 --> 00:16:46,137
Yeah.

413
00:16:46,172 --> 00:16:48,139
Mommy, I can't find
another shoelace.

414
00:16:48,174 --> 00:16:51,075
Can you hold on one second?
I'll be right back,

415
00:16:51,110 --> 00:16:53,011
And we can talk for a minute.

416
00:16:55,147 --> 00:16:57,315
Okay. Now you go
find the other one,

417
00:16:57,349 --> 00:16:58,883
And I'll find your jacket

418
00:16:58,918 --> 00:17:01,419
And tell your sister
I'll be right there.

419
00:17:07,893 --> 00:17:09,727
Never really had a chance to talk.

420
00:17:09,762 --> 00:17:12,197
Figured it must be
important, but...

421
00:17:12,231 --> 00:17:13,398
Didn't say where he was headed?

422
00:17:13,432 --> 00:17:15,300
Never got that far.

423
00:17:15,334 --> 00:17:17,569
It looked like he'd
been up all night,

424
00:17:17,603 --> 00:17:19,637
Like he was working a case.

425
00:17:20,906 --> 00:17:22,340
Is he okay?

426
00:17:22,374 --> 00:17:24,809
We don't know, but if
you hear from him again,

427
00:17:24,843 --> 00:17:26,678
Make sure to give us a call.

428
00:17:31,183 --> 00:17:32,317
What up, squirrel?

429
00:17:32,351 --> 00:17:34,452
Figure you got to watch
your back in here

430
00:17:34,486 --> 00:17:35,887
With a nickname like that.

431
00:17:35,921 --> 00:17:38,289
Yeah, yeah. Everybody's got
to watch their back in here.

432
00:17:38,324 --> 00:17:40,425
St better at it than most.

433
00:17:40,459 --> 00:17:42,493
Well, it helps to have
friends in the d.A.'s office.

434
00:17:42,528 --> 00:17:44,062
Got the parole board

435
00:17:44,096 --> 00:17:46,297
To cut you loose early
three different times.

436
00:17:46,332 --> 00:17:48,433
Yeah. I'm just keeping
my eyes and my ears open.

437
00:17:48,467 --> 00:17:50,268
Waiting for a nut
to fall from a tree.

438
00:17:50,302 --> 00:17:52,237
Unfortunately,
that nasty meth habit

439
00:17:52,271 --> 00:17:53,671
Keeps landing you back in here.

440
00:17:53,706 --> 00:17:54,839
Yeah, well, that's a...

441
00:17:54,873 --> 00:17:57,208
That's just a temporary situation.

442
00:17:57,243 --> 00:17:59,177
Now what can I do you for?

443
00:17:59,211 --> 00:18:02,680
Why did detective vera
recently come to see you?

444
00:18:02,715 --> 00:18:05,850
Philly homicide, ain't you?

445
00:18:05,884 --> 00:18:08,186
You guys don't talk?

446
00:18:08,220 --> 00:18:10,088
Was it about the billingsley case?

447
00:18:10,122 --> 00:18:11,322
Billingsley.

448
00:18:11,357 --> 00:18:13,024
Man, that's ancient history.

449
00:18:13,058 --> 00:18:14,359
Yeah. So was joe don.

450
00:18:14,393 --> 00:18:16,194
Caught a shiv up in
rockford last week.

451
00:18:16,228 --> 00:18:18,062
Yeah, I heard about
that from your partner.

452
00:18:18,097 --> 00:18:20,765
Hard row to hoe for a baby
killer inside these walls.

453
00:18:20,799 --> 00:18:23,468
So, what did detective vera
want to know about joe don?

454
00:18:23,502 --> 00:18:25,703
Oh, man, I mean,
what is it with this case?

455
00:18:25,738 --> 00:18:27,305
I already testified to the d.A.

456
00:18:27,339 --> 00:18:29,274
Ain't the question we asked you.

457
00:18:29,308 --> 00:18:31,075
Aah!

458
00:18:31,110 --> 00:18:33,645
Te-tell me again
what's in it for me.

459
00:18:33,679 --> 00:18:35,880
We don't tell the last homicidal

460
00:18:35,914 --> 00:18:38,583
Maniac you flipped on it
was you who gave him up.

461
00:18:38,617 --> 00:18:40,885
What kind of cops are you?

462
00:18:40,919 --> 00:18:42,253
The kind that don't care about you.

463
00:18:42,288 --> 00:18:43,221
Detective vera--

464
00:18:43,255 --> 00:18:44,422
Why'd he come talk to you?

465
00:18:44,456 --> 00:18:45,490
No disrespect, detective.

466
00:18:45,524 --> 00:18:47,425
It don't have to
be like this, okay?

467
00:18:47,459 --> 00:18:48,593
I tried to play ball with your guy,

468
00:18:48,627 --> 00:18:50,828
But he just took it the wrong way.

469
00:18:51,930 --> 00:18:54,265
You testified that joe
don told you he did it.

470
00:18:54,300 --> 00:18:55,867
Burned his house down.
That's right.

471
00:18:55,901 --> 00:18:58,603
That what I told the d.A.
Detective on the record.

472
00:18:58,637 --> 00:19:00,605
While he was awaiting trial
in county lockup. Damn right.

473
00:19:00,639 --> 00:19:03,107
He said that if he couldn't
have custody of them kids,

474
00:19:03,142 --> 00:19:04,242
Then that bitch couldn't, either.

475
00:19:04,276 --> 00:19:07,011
And that's why he set
that house on fire.

476
00:19:07,046 --> 00:19:08,613
Joe don said this
to you even though

477
00:19:08,647 --> 00:19:10,181
He never confessed to
me or anybody else?

478
00:19:10,215 --> 00:19:11,916
We were on the same cellblock,
detective.

479
00:19:11,950 --> 00:19:14,352
Yeah, but he didn't
have a cellmate.

480
00:19:14,386 --> 00:19:16,587
When exactly did he
tell you he did it?

481
00:19:16,622 --> 00:19:19,791
When I was walking by his cell.

482
00:19:19,825 --> 00:19:20,792
What, through the food slot?

483
00:19:20,826 --> 00:19:22,226
Yeah, that's right.

484
00:19:22,261 --> 00:19:25,463
He said he lit that
bitch up with gasoline.

485
00:19:25,497 --> 00:19:27,732
Uh-huh.

486
00:19:27,766 --> 00:19:30,835
He said because he wanted
custody of those kids, right?

487
00:19:30,869 --> 00:19:33,137
That's what he said.
Both of them? The boy and the girl?

488
00:19:33,172 --> 00:19:34,439
Yeah, that's right, both of them.

489
00:19:34,473 --> 00:19:35,840
A little girl, too.

490
00:19:35,874 --> 00:19:37,475
Hmm.

491
00:19:40,679 --> 00:19:42,980
Joe don didn't have a little girl.

492
00:19:43,015 --> 00:19:44,315
He just had two boys.

493
00:19:44,350 --> 00:19:45,917
Look, man!

494
00:19:45,951 --> 00:19:48,419
I just told that d.A.
Detective what he wanted to hear,

495
00:19:48,454 --> 00:19:49,787
Just like I'm telling you.

496
00:19:49,822 --> 00:19:51,756
What's that?

497
00:19:51,790 --> 00:19:53,958
What do you want me to say-
he did it?

498
00:19:53,992 --> 00:19:55,493
Then he did it.

499
00:19:55,527 --> 00:19:56,894
Whatever you want me to say.

500
00:19:56,929 --> 00:19:59,030
You just give me the right
information before I take the stand,

501
00:19:59,064 --> 00:20:01,366
And I'll say it right.
Don't you worry.

502
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:05,370
A man is dead because
of your lying ass.

503
00:20:05,404 --> 00:20:08,039
Because of me?

504
00:20:08,073 --> 00:20:10,274
I thought it was you
who put him in here.

505
00:20:10,309 --> 00:20:11,576
Hey! Hey!

506
00:20:12,778 --> 00:20:14,879
I don't get it. I played the game.

507
00:20:14,913 --> 00:20:17,281
I fed you and the d.A.
What you need and-and-and

508
00:20:17,316 --> 00:20:18,683
This, this is the thanks I get?

509
00:20:18,717 --> 00:20:19,717
Yeah, the thanks.

510
00:20:19,752 --> 00:20:21,519
Well, that cop had
a screw loose, no?

511
00:20:21,553 --> 00:20:22,987
The truth is, joe don didn't say

512
00:20:23,021 --> 00:20:25,123
Any of that b.S. To you about
offing his kids, right?

513
00:20:25,157 --> 00:20:27,992
Difference does it make?

514
00:20:28,026 --> 00:20:29,527
I mean, if he didn't do that,

515
00:20:29,561 --> 00:20:31,562
Then he did something else. Right?

516
00:20:32,598 --> 00:20:33,765
I mean, we all did it in here.

517
00:20:33,799 --> 00:20:34,966
The difference is,

518
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:36,667
He's dead, squirrel.

519
00:20:36,702 --> 00:20:38,803
Yeah, well, I wasn't glad to hear

520
00:20:38,837 --> 00:20:42,039
That joe don got stuck, but, uh,
huh, that man was twisted.

521
00:20:42,074 --> 00:20:43,174
Oh, yeah.

522
00:20:43,208 --> 00:20:44,709
And he was in denial, too.

523
00:20:44,743 --> 00:20:45,843
What are you talking about?

524
00:20:45,878 --> 00:20:49,046
Oh, he would cry himself
to sleep every night.

525
00:20:49,081 --> 00:20:51,182
Just crying about them kids.

526
00:20:51,216 --> 00:20:52,350
Yeah, then he would write

527
00:20:52,384 --> 00:20:55,153
Letters to some crackpot scientist.

528
00:20:55,187 --> 00:20:57,789
What scientist? How do you know?

529
00:20:57,823 --> 00:20:59,424
A little c.O. Bird told me.

530
00:20:59,458 --> 00:21:01,492
He's working on his appeal.

531
00:21:01,527 --> 00:21:03,327
You know, thout he
could get him out.

532
00:21:03,362 --> 00:21:04,629
What's a name worth to you?

533
00:21:04,663 --> 00:21:08,933
Worth keeping your acorns
out of a vice, squirrel.

534
00:21:10,769 --> 00:21:13,771
This is joe don
billingsley's old house.

535
00:21:13,806 --> 00:21:17,308
Fbi tracks nick's phone
to this location. Yeah.

536
00:21:17,342 --> 00:21:19,510
Why would he come back here?

537
00:21:20,446 --> 00:21:22,013
Who you calling?

538
00:21:22,047 --> 00:21:23,815
Nick.

539
00:21:38,831 --> 00:21:40,264
It's his.

540
00:21:45,070 --> 00:21:47,472
Last call an hour ago to me.

541
00:21:47,506 --> 00:21:48,806
Home phone.

542
00:21:48,841 --> 00:21:52,410
Why wouldn't he just call
your cell? I don't know.

543
00:21:52,444 --> 00:21:55,580
Electronic voice:
You have one current message.

544
00:21:55,614 --> 00:21:57,281
left a voicemail.

545
00:21:57,316 --> 00:21:59,550
Vera Hey, man, uh, it's nick.

546
00:21:59,585 --> 00:22:02,320
I just wanted to tell you,
uh, it's been

547
00:22:02,354 --> 00:22:03,688
Great working with you.

548
00:22:03,722 --> 00:22:06,491
You've always been a-a...
A good friend to me.

549
00:22:07,893 --> 00:22:09,627
I think I still owe you 50 bucks.

550
00:22:09,661 --> 00:22:13,231
Anyways, um... That's about it.

551
00:22:13,265 --> 00:22:15,399
Sorry about the whole mess.

552
00:22:22,292 --> 00:22:23,627
Hey, boss.

553
00:22:23,661 --> 00:22:24,728
Next time you two

554
00:22:24,762 --> 00:22:27,264
Get the instinct to
protect me, don't.

555
00:22:28,266 --> 00:22:30,133
Where are we on nick?

556
00:22:30,167 --> 00:22:32,202
Running down a list of calls,
messages--

557
00:22:32,236 --> 00:22:34,437
Anyone talked to
nick in the past 24.

558
00:22:34,472 --> 00:22:36,306
There was a recent call on his cell

559
00:22:36,340 --> 00:22:39,442
To jeanette peterson,
billingsley's ex-wife.

560
00:22:39,477 --> 00:22:40,910
Miller and jeffries are headed over

561
00:22:40,945 --> 00:22:42,012
To talk to her now.

562
00:22:42,046 --> 00:22:43,947
Also, calls to a goran petrovic,

563
00:22:43,981 --> 00:22:45,181
A professor over at temple.

564
00:22:45,216 --> 00:22:47,150
One yesterday and one last week.

565
00:22:47,184 --> 00:22:49,319
Correspondence records at rockford

566
00:22:49,353 --> 00:22:51,154
Show billingsley wrote
multiple letters

567
00:22:51,188 --> 00:22:53,623
To the same dr. Petrovic.
What kind of professor?

568
00:22:53,658 --> 00:22:54,924
Chemical engineering.

569
00:22:54,959 --> 00:22:56,359
Also worked for multiple

570
00:22:56,394 --> 00:22:59,696
Companies that served
private military suppliers.

571
00:22:59,730 --> 00:23:01,331
Hit the campus.
Pay the doc a visit.

572
00:23:01,365 --> 00:23:02,499
You talk to criminal intelligence?

573
00:23:02,533 --> 00:23:03,800
Oh, yeah, we got teams

574
00:23:03,834 --> 00:23:05,735
Of plainclothes cops
trying to track him down.

575
00:23:05,770 --> 00:23:07,037
All right,
tell them no paper trail.

576
00:23:07,071 --> 00:23:08,371
I just said find him,

577
00:23:08,406 --> 00:23:10,006
Bring him in, no questions asked.

578
00:23:10,041 --> 00:23:11,908
Yeah, don't take "no"
for an answer from nick.

579
00:23:11,942 --> 00:23:14,010
And, scotty,
get that damn car back.

580
00:23:19,383 --> 00:23:22,118
Used to design all sorts of nasty

581
00:23:22,153 --> 00:23:24,721
Explosives with
military applications.

582
00:23:24,755 --> 00:23:26,222
Lucrative, yes.

583
00:23:26,257 --> 00:23:28,191
But also insane.

584
00:23:28,225 --> 00:23:30,694
I prefer teaching. Detective vera

585
00:23:30,728 --> 00:23:32,896
Asked you to review the
jd billingsley case?

586
00:23:32,930 --> 00:23:34,230
Given that he was

587
00:23:34,265 --> 00:23:35,665
The original investigator

588
00:23:35,700 --> 00:23:38,034
And seemed quite desperate,
yes, I took a look.

589
00:23:38,069 --> 00:23:40,670
Well, the fire marshal
determined that it was arson.

590
00:23:40,705 --> 00:23:42,906
Which frankly, I found stunning...

591
00:23:42,940 --> 00:23:44,007
Though I shouldn't anymore.

592
00:23:44,041 --> 00:23:45,875
Why's that? Most fire marshals

593
00:23:45,910 --> 00:23:48,712
Only have high school degree,
and certified

594
00:23:48,746 --> 00:23:51,548
After one 40-hour course
in fire investigation.

595
00:23:51,582 --> 00:23:52,982
Ray crawford's been on the job

596
00:23:53,017 --> 00:23:55,719
30 years; he's done
hundreds of arson cases.

597
00:23:55,753 --> 00:23:59,122
Instincts and experience
is no substitute

598
00:23:59,156 --> 00:24:00,423
For scientific method.

599
00:24:00,458 --> 00:24:03,026
And this finding
completely ignores it.

600
00:24:03,060 --> 00:24:04,461
What did you tell detective vera?

601
00:24:04,495 --> 00:24:06,096
I told him the truth.

602
00:24:06,964 --> 00:24:08,698
From the photos,
it appears that the fire

603
00:24:08,733 --> 00:24:10,867
Rebched upwards of 1,800 degrees.

604
00:24:10,901 --> 00:24:13,536
Flashover from the accelerant.
Not necessarily.

605
00:24:13,571 --> 00:24:15,772
The temperature is affected
mostly by ventilation.

606
00:24:15,806 --> 00:24:17,741
But what about the burn patterns

607
00:24:17,775 --> 00:24:20,643
And the... The puddle
configurations under the bed?

608
00:24:20,678 --> 00:24:23,713
The effects of flashover can
look like evidence of arson,

609
00:24:23,748 --> 00:24:26,216
But these burn patterns
aren't indicative

610
00:24:26,250 --> 00:24:27,484
Of an accelerant.

611
00:24:27,518 --> 00:24:29,953
So how did the fire start?

612
00:24:29,987 --> 00:24:31,654
That's hard to tell.

613
00:24:31,689 --> 00:24:32,589
From these pictures,

614
00:24:32,623 --> 00:24:34,524
It appears that the point of origin

615
00:24:34,558 --> 00:24:36,426
Was most likely the kitchen.

616
00:24:38,095 --> 00:24:40,029
But you can't say for
sure what caused it?

617
00:24:40,064 --> 00:24:41,331
Not for certain.

618
00:24:41,365 --> 00:24:43,933
Which why I'm baffled by
the fire marshal's finding.

619
00:24:43,968 --> 00:24:45,935
Oh, crawford's been
at it a long time.

620
00:24:45,970 --> 00:24:47,036
He learned from the old timers.

621
00:24:47,071 --> 00:24:49,005
Might explain why
it's based on, uh,

622
00:24:49,039 --> 00:24:50,440
Junk science and old wives' tales.

623
00:24:50,474 --> 00:24:53,209
Yeah, but joe don, he escaped
with no burns on his feet.

624
00:24:53,244 --> 00:24:54,411
How's that possible?

625
00:24:54,478 --> 00:24:56,246
Because fire burns upward.

626
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,181
And one that reaches flashover

627
00:24:58,215 --> 00:24:59,482
Is the next hottest thing to hell.

628
00:24:59,517 --> 00:25:00,984
And unless you're

629
00:25:01,018 --> 00:25:02,519
Confronted with that type of heat,

630
00:25:02,553 --> 00:25:04,854
You just can't understand it,
detective.

631
00:25:04,889 --> 00:25:07,357
You're right. I don't.

632
00:25:07,391 --> 00:25:08,992
He left his kids inside.

633
00:25:09,026 --> 00:25:10,293
As soon as he went outside

634
00:25:10,327 --> 00:25:13,163
To find another way in,
he just let in more oxygen.

635
00:25:13,197 --> 00:25:15,331
Fed the beast.

636
00:25:15,366 --> 00:25:17,100
Even a fireman

637
00:25:17,134 --> 00:25:20,103
Wouldn't go back into
this blast furnace.

638
00:25:21,972 --> 00:25:23,873
So what you're saying is,

639
00:25:23,908 --> 00:25:26,509
It's possible joe don was
telling me the truth?

640
00:25:26,544 --> 00:25:29,612
I see no evidence of arson.

641
00:25:31,816 --> 00:25:33,450
That's good. Right?

642
00:25:34,518 --> 00:25:36,686
If he wasn't already dead.

643
00:25:39,690 --> 00:25:42,091
Seemed to take the
news pretty hard.

644
00:25:44,028 --> 00:25:45,195
You think the fire
startolder house like that,

645
00:25:45,229 --> 00:25:48,131
Nine times out of ten
it's faulty wiring.

646
00:25:48,165 --> 00:25:50,500
Yeah, but there's no
way to tell for sure.

647
00:25:50,534 --> 00:25:52,602
Usually, there'd be
some prior issues

648
00:25:52,636 --> 00:25:55,371
With overloaded circuits,
browning outlets.

649
00:25:55,406 --> 00:25:57,874
But you'd have to ask somebody
who lived in the home.

650
00:25:57,908 --> 00:25:59,642
Joe don getting killed,

651
00:25:59,677 --> 00:26:02,879
All these detectives
coming round here again...

652
00:26:03,781 --> 00:26:05,448
It's like the nightmare never ends.

653
00:26:05,483 --> 00:26:07,116
Detective vera came by here?

654
00:26:07,151 --> 00:26:08,351
Yesterday.

655
00:26:08,385 --> 00:26:09,719
Asking me all those questions

656
00:26:09,753 --> 00:26:11,521
About things I'd rather not relive.

657
00:26:11,555 --> 00:26:13,490
Going over your statement.

658
00:26:13,524 --> 00:26:16,493
I didn't care to,
but I trust detective vera.

659
00:26:16,527 --> 00:26:20,230
Joe don was pretty
upset when I moved out.

660
00:26:20,264 --> 00:26:22,098
He lost his job.

661
00:26:22,132 --> 00:26:23,399
Drinking too much.

662
00:26:23,434 --> 00:26:26,569
He just... He wasn't
the same man I married.

663
00:26:26,604 --> 00:26:28,304
I filed for separation

664
00:26:28,339 --> 00:26:32,575
And... Then he...
He found out I was dating.

665
00:26:32,610 --> 00:26:34,577
He threaten you or the kids?

666
00:26:34,612 --> 00:26:37,747
He said some pretty...
Terrible things.

667
00:26:39,750 --> 00:26:42,051
But, um...

668
00:26:44,021 --> 00:26:46,789
I couldn't deny the
boys their father.

669
00:26:46,824 --> 00:26:49,125
You know, when they told me that

670
00:26:49,159 --> 00:26:51,327
He set the house on fire,

671
00:26:51,362 --> 00:26:53,463
I couldn't believe it.

672
00:26:53,497 --> 00:26:55,231
You know...

673
00:26:56,834 --> 00:27:00,470
Nobody should experience
a loss like that.

674
00:27:02,239 --> 00:27:03,540
Jeanette, did detective vera

675
00:27:03,574 --> 00:27:05,775
Ask you anything
else about the house?

676
00:27:05,809 --> 00:27:10,146
He kept asking about
when I live in the house.

677
00:27:10,180 --> 00:27:11,981
About the kitchen.

678
00:27:13,250 --> 00:27:15,985
He said he'd never let
another man raise his boys.

679
00:27:16,020 --> 00:27:18,421
I lost everything.

680
00:27:18,455 --> 00:27:21,591
Jeanette, I need to ask you
about the time before you left

681
00:27:21,625 --> 00:27:22,959
When you still lived in the house.

682
00:27:22,993 --> 00:27:24,861
Do you remember any
electrical problems

683
00:27:24,895 --> 00:27:26,129
With the lights or the outlets?

684
00:27:26,163 --> 00:27:28,164
What problems didn't
the house have?

685
00:27:28,198 --> 00:27:30,700
Lights were always
flickering on and off.

686
00:27:30,734 --> 00:27:31,701
Did you tell your landlord?

687
00:27:31,735 --> 00:27:33,770
Cheap bastard never fixed anything.

688
00:27:33,804 --> 00:27:35,004
Do you remember any problems

689
00:27:35,039 --> 00:27:36,406
With the wiring in the kitchen?

690
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:37,774
The switches or the outlets?

691
00:27:37,808 --> 00:27:40,410
Why are you asking me this?

692
00:27:40,444 --> 00:27:41,844
He's dead, my kids are gone.

693
00:27:41,879 --> 00:27:43,513
It's important.

694
00:27:43,547 --> 00:27:44,414
Why?

695
00:27:44,448 --> 00:27:45,882
♪ ♪

696
00:27:47,818 --> 00:27:49,252
I don't know how to say this,

697
00:27:49,286 --> 00:27:53,356
But it's possible joe don
didn't set that fire.

698
00:27:56,627 --> 00:27:58,161
You must be joking.

699
00:27:59,196 --> 00:28:01,097
You're the one who
told me he did it.

700
00:28:01,131 --> 00:28:03,833
The police, the fire department,

701
00:28:03,867 --> 00:28:05,568
The lawyers-- it has to be true!

702
00:28:05,603 --> 00:28:07,737
I'm not so sure anymore.

703
00:28:07,771 --> 00:28:09,138
Well, I don't have any doubt,
detective.

704
00:28:09,173 --> 00:28:11,040
You tell me how a man

705
00:28:11,075 --> 00:28:14,477
Doesn't run back in there
to save his own sons.

706
00:28:14,511 --> 00:28:17,313
The neighbors,
they saw him on the street

707
00:28:17,348 --> 00:28:19,282
While my babies burned up.

708
00:28:19,316 --> 00:28:21,417
How could he not go back in there?

709
00:28:21,452 --> 00:28:22,719
Tell me that!

710
00:28:24,355 --> 00:28:26,856
Those were your kids,
would you stand outside

711
00:28:26,890 --> 00:28:29,158
While they burned alive?

712
00:28:29,193 --> 00:28:32,362
Jeanette, what was wrong
with the wiring in the house?

713
00:28:32,396 --> 00:28:34,731
You know, every time you'd
plug in the toaster,

714
00:28:34,765 --> 00:28:36,065
The fridge would go out.

715
00:28:36,100 --> 00:28:37,934
In the kitchen?

716
00:28:37,968 --> 00:28:40,103
One time the outlet melted down.

717
00:28:40,137 --> 00:28:42,171
I lost a bunch of breast milk.

718
00:28:42,239 --> 00:28:43,473
Joe don finally called

719
00:28:43,507 --> 00:28:45,608
An electrician, and the
landlord got all upset about it.

720
00:28:45,643 --> 00:28:47,276
The landlord?

721
00:28:47,311 --> 00:28:48,878
Bela.

722
00:28:48,912 --> 00:28:50,980
He only wanted to use his handyman

723
00:28:51,015 --> 00:28:52,415
To fix everything on the cheap.

724
00:28:52,449 --> 00:28:54,017
Look, I-I don't understand

725
00:28:54,051 --> 00:28:56,019
Why you keep asking
me about the house.

726
00:28:56,053 --> 00:28:57,553
Should talk to insurance company.

727
00:28:57,588 --> 00:28:59,422
I'm still trying to
get them to pay up.

728
00:28:59,456 --> 00:29:00,990
Oh, that's got to be
rough on you, bela.

729
00:29:01,025 --> 00:29:04,694
Yeah, I should not have
rented to that family.

730
00:29:04,728 --> 00:29:06,596
Now, that man was alcoholic.

731
00:29:06,630 --> 00:29:10,400
It's always bad when man of
house cannot hold on to job.

732
00:29:10,434 --> 00:29:12,702
Understand that house had a
lot of electrical issues.

733
00:29:12,736 --> 00:29:14,737
Issues? No issues.

734
00:29:14,772 --> 00:29:17,173
You cannot put blame on
me for what happened.

735
00:29:17,207 --> 00:29:19,008
Oh, we didn't say that, bela.

736
00:29:19,043 --> 00:29:20,510
Maybe we should talk
to your handyman.

737
00:29:20,544 --> 00:29:23,713
Why you detectives keep harsing me?

738
00:29:23,747 --> 00:29:25,415
So what happened

739
00:29:25,449 --> 00:29:27,517
When joe don hired
his own electrician?

740
00:29:27,551 --> 00:29:29,686
Oh, that stupid waste of money.

741
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:31,788
You know how much electrician
charges per hour?

742
00:29:31,822 --> 00:29:33,156
Yeah, sounded like you needed one.

743
00:29:33,190 --> 00:29:36,759
Joe don was problem tenant.

744
00:29:36,794 --> 00:29:39,696
Always overloading circuits,
clogging up pipes,

745
00:29:39,730 --> 00:29:42,198
Asking for more time
before paying rent.

746
00:29:42,232 --> 00:29:45,168
Always! No, the way we heard it,
your handyman couldn't fix anything.

747
00:29:45,202 --> 00:29:47,070
There's old wiring,
lights flickering,

748
00:29:47,104 --> 00:29:48,738
Browning outlets, and you send over

749
00:29:48,772 --> 00:29:50,440
A guy who can't screw
in a lightbulb.

750
00:29:50,474 --> 00:29:52,008
That's ridiculous.

751
00:29:52,042 --> 00:29:54,177
Jorge is very good handyman.

752
00:29:54,211 --> 00:29:55,311
I know him personally.

753
00:29:55,345 --> 00:29:57,814
Joe don's ex told us a
kitchen outlet melted.

754
00:29:57,848 --> 00:29:58,948
He told them just

755
00:29:58,982 --> 00:30:01,651
"plug it into the bottom.
" that your idea?

756
00:30:06,690 --> 00:30:08,691
I am not negligent.

757
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:11,127
I have lawyers who can prove this.

758
00:30:11,161 --> 00:30:12,628
Sure you do.

759
00:30:12,663 --> 00:30:16,265
Look, I manage three
apartment buildings.

760
00:30:16,300 --> 00:30:18,401
People always want
something for nothing.

761
00:30:18,435 --> 00:30:20,837
Never mind if it's a fire hazard.

762
00:30:20,871 --> 00:30:23,306
I did not start that fire.

763
00:30:26,076 --> 00:30:28,010
This is not my fault.

764
00:30:28,679 --> 00:30:29,946
Oh, yeah, it's...

765
00:30:29,980 --> 00:30:31,981
It's nobody's fault.

766
00:30:33,283 --> 00:30:34,484
Hey, call just came in.

767
00:30:34,518 --> 00:30:36,018
Got a jumper at 12th and ridge.

768
00:30:36,053 --> 00:30:37,920
It's two blocks up

769
00:30:37,955 --> 00:30:39,422
From nick's place.

770
00:30:54,738 --> 00:30:56,239
White male, 40s, heavyset.

771
00:30:56,273 --> 00:30:58,040
No id? Nada.

772
00:30:58,075 --> 00:31:00,076
Face is messed up
from the swan dive.

773
00:31:00,110 --> 00:31:01,544
Six stories up.

774
00:31:01,578 --> 00:31:03,679
Lil.

775
00:31:12,790 --> 00:31:14,524
That ain't him.

776
00:31:18,199 --> 00:31:20,166
It's good you got that
department vehicle

777
00:31:20,301 --> 00:31:22,102
back in serviceable condition.

778
00:31:22,136 --> 00:31:23,903
Any such luck with your detective?

779
00:31:23,938 --> 00:31:25,505
No.

780
00:31:25,539 --> 00:31:28,308
Hey, that's too bad.

781
00:31:28,342 --> 00:31:30,510
Do what you've got to do.

782
00:31:35,816 --> 00:31:37,050
You know, John,

783
00:31:37,084 --> 00:31:39,486
I know you think I hate you.

784
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:41,888
That I'm after you because
of what you did to my son

785
00:31:41,922 --> 00:31:43,957
15 years ago. Pat...

786
00:31:43,991 --> 00:31:47,293
No, let me finish.

787
00:31:47,328 --> 00:31:49,262
I know Matt was a screw up.

788
00:31:49,296 --> 00:31:51,664
Wife and I, we tried rehab,

789
00:31:51,699 --> 00:31:54,234
kicked him out of the house,
more rehab-- none of it worked.

790
00:31:54,268 --> 00:31:56,669
Now, this is none of my business.

791
00:31:56,704 --> 00:31:58,605
No, it was everybody's business-
that was the problem.

792
00:31:58,639 --> 00:31:59,739
Everybody in this whole

793
00:31:59,774 --> 00:32:01,007
damn department knew
that he was my son.

794
00:32:01,041 --> 00:32:02,575
So every time he got arrested,

795
00:32:02,610 --> 00:32:04,811
he got a pass-- skated by,
and Matt knew it.

796
00:32:04,845 --> 00:32:07,380
He counted on it.

797
00:32:07,415 --> 00:32:09,582
Till you finally locked him up.
I don't need to hear this.

798
00:32:09,617 --> 00:32:11,484
No, you do. I had to, Pat!

799
00:32:11,519 --> 00:32:13,186
It was his fourth time!

800
00:32:14,922 --> 00:32:18,158
It took my kid a long time to
get straightened out, John.

801
00:32:18,192 --> 00:32:21,995
Getting a job is
tough with a record.

802
00:32:22,029 --> 00:32:23,296
But, finally, he did it.

803
00:32:23,330 --> 00:32:25,465
He even got married.

804
00:32:27,168 --> 00:32:30,170
Last month...

805
00:32:30,204 --> 00:32:33,306
He actually gave me a grandson.

806
00:32:34,708 --> 00:32:36,309
I heard.

807
00:32:36,343 --> 00:32:38,011
Congratulations.
Which is right about

808
00:32:38,045 --> 00:32:40,647
when I finally admitted to myself

809
00:32:40,681 --> 00:32:43,249
that getting locked
up was the best thing

810
00:32:43,284 --> 00:32:45,251
that ever happened to my son.

811
00:32:46,654 --> 00:32:49,122
Which, I guess,
is my roundabout way of saying

812
00:32:49,156 --> 00:32:51,591
you were right.

813
00:32:53,093 --> 00:32:54,494
So, I'm going to return the favor.

814
00:32:54,528 --> 00:32:56,963
Pat, it was a long time ago.
When or if

815
00:32:56,997 --> 00:32:59,599
you get your detective back,

816
00:32:59,633 --> 00:33:01,968
I expect you to do the same.

817
00:33:04,271 --> 00:33:06,039
Nick... Take him off line.

818
00:33:06,073 --> 00:33:07,407
Send him to psych services.

819
00:33:07,441 --> 00:33:10,143
If that doesn't work,
take away his badge.

820
00:33:11,412 --> 00:33:12,545
Take care of it, John.

821
00:33:12,580 --> 00:33:14,547
I realize now it's the only way.

822
00:33:19,453 --> 00:33:20,887
Yeah, okay, thanks.

823
00:33:20,921 --> 00:33:22,689
That was the fire station.
Said Nick was just there

824
00:33:22,723 --> 00:33:24,691
15 minutes ago.
Got into it with Crawford.

825
00:33:24,725 --> 00:33:25,959
Fight? Said it got pretty heated

826
00:33:25,993 --> 00:33:28,161
until some firemen jumped
in and Nick took off.

827
00:33:28,195 --> 00:33:29,662
All right, call Lil and Scotty.

828
00:33:29,697 --> 00:33:31,731
See if they can catch up to him.

829
00:33:31,765 --> 00:33:33,132
The balls on that
guy coming in here,

830
00:33:33,167 --> 00:33:35,301
going at me how I do my job!

831
00:33:35,336 --> 00:33:36,636
Who the hell's he think he is?

832
00:33:36,670 --> 00:33:38,771
Calm down, Ray.
Don't tell me to calm down!

833
00:33:38,806 --> 00:33:41,007
How would you like it
some fireman marches

834
00:33:41,041 --> 00:33:43,810
into the PPD,
saying you messed up a case?

835
00:33:43,844 --> 00:33:45,879
He came at you about Billingsley?

836
00:33:45,913 --> 00:33:48,081
Whatever! Son of a bitch!

837
00:33:48,115 --> 00:33:50,550
This about half hour ago?
He on foot?

838
00:33:50,584 --> 00:33:52,852
Hell if I know. Couple of the
guys tossed him out on his ear.

839
00:33:52,887 --> 00:33:55,154
He's lucky I didn't break his jaw!

840
00:33:55,189 --> 00:33:57,190
Yeah, all right, all right.
Just tell us what happened.

841
00:33:57,224 --> 00:34:00,093
I've been a fire marshal
before he was a beat cop.

842
00:34:00,127 --> 00:34:03,196
Don't tell me what's
arson and what ain't.

843
00:34:03,230 --> 00:34:04,964
♪ Ticking away... ♪

844
00:34:04,999 --> 00:34:06,399
Take a look at the file, Ray.

845
00:34:06,433 --> 00:34:08,067
There were electrical
problems in the house.

846
00:34:08,102 --> 00:34:10,003
No residue of a
petroleum-based accelerant.

847
00:34:10,037 --> 00:34:11,571
You're out of your freaking mind.

848
00:34:11,605 --> 00:34:13,573
Just take a look at
the file, please.

849
00:34:13,607 --> 00:34:14,741
Heard about enough.

850
00:34:14,775 --> 00:34:15,975
Get the hell out of here.

851
00:34:16,010 --> 00:34:17,243
I don't think he did it, Ray.

852
00:34:17,278 --> 00:34:18,912
I don't really care what you think.

853
00:34:18,946 --> 00:34:20,914
I know it's arson,

854
00:34:20,948 --> 00:34:22,982
just like you know a
murder when you see it.

855
00:34:23,017 --> 00:34:24,484
He never gave it up!
That never bothered you?

856
00:34:24,518 --> 00:34:26,386
What are you talking about?

857
00:34:26,420 --> 00:34:28,488
48 hours in the box,
I never got him to give it up.

858
00:34:28,522 --> 00:34:30,590
I always maintained his innocence.

859
00:34:30,624 --> 00:34:33,393
That don't bother you? No,
that's between him and God.

860
00:34:33,427 --> 00:34:35,662
I went on what you told me, Ray.

861
00:34:35,696 --> 00:34:38,398
That it had to be arson. Wh-What are
you saying, that I'm wrong, Nick?

862
00:34:38,432 --> 00:34:40,600
That this is all on me? No,
no, I'm not saying that.

863
00:34:40,634 --> 00:34:43,403
Don't forget, you took
the witness statements.

864
00:34:43,437 --> 00:34:45,772
You testified on the stand
to his state of mind.

865
00:34:45,806 --> 00:34:47,040
Ain't denying that.

866
00:34:47,074 --> 00:34:48,841
The guy was a drunk!

867
00:34:48,876 --> 00:34:50,476
He's a terrible husband!

868
00:34:50,511 --> 00:34:52,078
Pissed off at his wife,
at the world.

869
00:34:52,112 --> 00:34:54,614
Been there.
All those things, myself.

870
00:34:54,648 --> 00:34:56,316
It doesn't mean that
he killed his kids.

871
00:34:56,350 --> 00:34:57,884
Oh, cry me a river.

872
00:34:57,918 --> 00:35:00,353
Joe Don Billingsley didn't
deserve what happened!

873
00:35:00,387 --> 00:35:01,654
He didn't deserve to die!

874
00:35:01,689 --> 00:35:03,856
Boo-hoo! Live with it.

875
00:35:03,891 --> 00:35:05,858
We gotta make this right somehow.

876
00:35:05,893 --> 00:35:07,293
There is nothing to fix.

877
00:35:07,328 --> 00:35:08,861
Guy's dead and gone.

878
00:35:08,896 --> 00:35:12,999
His ex-wife still thinks
that he killed her kids.

879
00:35:13,033 --> 00:35:16,869
His own parents think that he
killed their grandkids! Guess what?

880
00:35:16,904 --> 00:35:18,137
So do I.

881
00:35:18,172 --> 00:35:20,173
And that's the way it's gonna stay.

882
00:35:20,207 --> 00:35:21,374
Hey!

883
00:35:21,408 --> 00:35:22,742
You do what you got to do!

884
00:35:22,776 --> 00:35:24,611
I know what I got to do!

885
00:35:24,645 --> 00:35:26,112
I know what I got to do!

886
00:35:26,146 --> 00:35:29,082
Nobody comes in here and
talks to me like that.

887
00:35:29,116 --> 00:35:31,284
He said something about
Joe Don's parents.

888
00:35:31,318 --> 00:35:32,652
Making it right? I don't know

889
00:35:32,686 --> 00:35:36,189
what he's going to do,
and frankly, I don't care.

890
00:35:37,524 --> 00:35:40,627
So why wouldn't you look
at the evidence again, Ray?

891
00:35:40,661 --> 00:35:44,530
You seriously entertaining
reopening this case?

892
00:35:45,566 --> 00:35:48,067
Get the hell out of my house.

893
00:36:06,887 --> 00:36:09,222
Nick! Get in.

894
00:36:22,169 --> 00:36:24,704
Joe Don's parent'' house, huh?

895
00:36:24,738 --> 00:36:27,040
Been out here what?

896
00:36:27,074 --> 00:36:29,175
An hour?

897
00:36:31,311 --> 00:36:33,446
Just trying to figure
out what to say.

898
00:36:35,516 --> 00:36:38,751
You had a busy 48 hours.

899
00:36:38,786 --> 00:36:41,054
You had us all worried.

900
00:36:41,088 --> 00:36:42,522
Have I been fired yet?

901
00:36:42,556 --> 00:36:45,591
Maybe the boss can
pull some strings.

902
00:36:46,493 --> 00:36:47,593
For both of us.

903
00:36:47,628 --> 00:36:49,228
You?

904
00:36:49,263 --> 00:36:51,397
Considering I covered up a DUI.

905
00:36:54,001 --> 00:36:55,935
Sorry about that.

906
00:36:57,938 --> 00:37:01,040
You're a good cop, Nick...

907
00:37:01,075 --> 00:37:03,276
but you need help.

908
00:37:03,310 --> 00:37:07,113
I saw my my ex-wife Julie.

909
00:37:07,147 --> 00:37:10,416
She's got two kids.

910
00:37:10,451 --> 00:37:13,286
I always thought that that'd be me.

911
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,054
No, it's never too late.

912
00:37:17,291 --> 00:37:20,259
I'm happy for her.

913
00:37:20,294 --> 00:37:22,795
Back when they caught this case,

914
00:37:22,830 --> 00:37:26,199
it's all I wanted was a kid,
a family.

915
00:37:26,233 --> 00:37:30,436
And then when I saw that
burnt-out bedroom...

916
00:37:30,471 --> 00:37:31,804
And the kids...

917
00:37:31,839 --> 00:37:33,573
yeah.

918
00:37:33,607 --> 00:37:35,141
Yeah, I sat down on the box

919
00:37:35,175 --> 00:37:36,509
across from this man,

920
00:37:36,543 --> 00:37:40,747
this father that had...
had burned his kids alive,

921
00:37:40,781 --> 00:37:45,184
and I couldn't believe
someone could do that.

922
00:37:45,219 --> 00:37:47,520
Did he?

923
00:37:47,554 --> 00:37:49,655
I went at him day and night, Lil.

924
00:37:49,690 --> 00:37:52,725
I knew something
wasn't right in my gut.

925
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,394
I kept looking for that
one thing in his story,

926
00:37:55,429 --> 00:37:58,698
that one slip that just lets you...

927
00:37:59,566 --> 00:38:01,200
...lets you know he's a liar.

928
00:38:01,235 --> 00:38:03,770
Just needed one slip.

929
00:38:03,804 --> 00:38:04,937
But he never did.

930
00:38:04,972 --> 00:38:06,672
I didn't need a statement
to get a conviction.

931
00:38:06,707 --> 00:38:07,840
I had everything.

932
00:38:07,875 --> 00:38:10,143
I was just so sure he'd done it.

933
00:38:10,177 --> 00:38:12,979
And you weren't the only one, Nick.

934
00:38:18,252 --> 00:38:22,054
Firemen call it the "beast."

935
00:38:22,089 --> 00:38:24,223
Flashover.

936
00:38:25,292 --> 00:38:27,393
It only got hotter
when he went outside,

937
00:38:27,427 --> 00:38:30,797
trying to find another
way back to get his kids.

938
00:38:30,831 --> 00:38:31,864
But he couldn't.

939
00:38:31,899 --> 00:38:33,933
I just couldn't get
my head around that.

940
00:38:33,967 --> 00:38:35,034
What that was like?

941
00:38:35,102 --> 00:38:37,003
I thought for sure
he'd set that fire,

942
00:38:37,037 --> 00:38:41,307
And he tried to tell me,
and I couldn't hear it.

943
00:38:41,341 --> 00:38:43,209
He tried to tell you what?

944
00:38:43,243 --> 00:38:45,044
That he wasn't a killer.

945
00:38:45,078 --> 00:38:46,646
He was just afraid.

946
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:48,080
Afraid for his own life.

947
00:38:48,115 --> 00:38:52,585
And for that,
I couldn't forgive him.

948
00:38:52,619 --> 00:38:54,487
It was you, Joe Don.

949
00:38:54,521 --> 00:38:56,022
You started that fire,

950
00:38:56,056 --> 00:38:57,690
you burned up those kids.

951
00:38:57,724 --> 00:39:00,092
No, I could never do that.

952
00:39:00,127 --> 00:39:01,294
I would never hurt them.

953
00:39:01,328 --> 00:39:02,595
I loved my boys. Really?

954
00:39:02,629 --> 00:39:04,697
Then how could you just
leave them in there to die?

955
00:39:04,731 --> 00:39:09,335
I just... The fire,
it was everywhere.

956
00:39:09,369 --> 00:39:11,838
It was so hot. You have no idea.

957
00:39:11,872 --> 00:39:13,306
You're right, I don't.

958
00:39:13,340 --> 00:39:15,541
You had plenty of time to go
in there and get them out.

959
00:39:15,542 --> 00:39:20,980
No, I thought I could,
but it happened so fast and...

960
00:39:21,014 --> 00:39:23,749
You had plenty of time to
gand then I was on fire. out.

961
00:39:23,784 --> 00:39:27,653
The fire, it was,
it was everywhere.

962
00:39:27,688 --> 00:39:32,124
And the heat, my God...

963
00:39:32,159 --> 00:39:33,125
Help me believe you.

964
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:35,094
How does a father
not go back inside

965
00:39:35,128 --> 00:39:36,462
and get his own boys out?!

966
00:39:36,496 --> 00:39:37,530
I don't know.

967
00:39:37,564 --> 00:39:38,831
You see, a man,

968
00:39:38,866 --> 00:39:41,167
a man would do anything
to save his own.

969
00:39:41,201 --> 00:39:43,502
I tried.

970
00:39:47,841 --> 00:39:52,345
I really tried...

971
00:39:52,379 --> 00:39:54,714
I don't believe you.

972
00:39:54,748 --> 00:39:56,315
You're a liar.

973
00:39:56,350 --> 00:39:57,483
You're a damn liar.

974
00:39:57,517 --> 00:39:58,818
How could you just stand by

975
00:39:58,852 --> 00:40:00,119
and let that happen?!

976
00:40:00,153 --> 00:40:01,320
Help me understand that,

977
00:40:01,355 --> 00:40:02,955
okay?!

978
00:40:02,990 --> 00:40:03,990
How?!

979
00:40:04,024 --> 00:40:07,093
I don't know, all right?

980
00:40:07,127 --> 00:40:10,196
I just...

981
00:40:10,230 --> 00:40:11,430
couldn't.

982
00:40:12,566 --> 00:40:16,369
I don't know.

983
00:40:21,508 --> 00:40:24,076
I mistook cowardice for guilt.

984
00:40:24,144 --> 00:40:26,045
It's an honest mistake, Nick.

985
00:40:26,079 --> 00:40:29,916
One that can't be made right.

986
00:40:33,186 --> 00:40:36,489
Well, look, we'll talk to the DA.

987
00:40:36,523 --> 00:40:39,191
We'll try to clear his name.

988
00:40:40,694 --> 00:40:42,728
Okay?

989
00:40:46,333 --> 00:40:48,567
First, I gotta do this.

990
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:09,121
Mr. and Mrs. Billingsley,
I'm Detective Vera.

991
00:41:09,156 --> 00:41:11,757
I know who you are.

992
00:41:11,792 --> 00:41:14,126
I'm sorry for your loss.

993
00:41:14,161 --> 00:41:16,529
What do you want?

994
00:41:17,531 --> 00:41:19,465
There's been some new
evidence in the case,

995
00:41:19,499 --> 00:41:21,600
and I know it will never
bring your son back,

996
00:41:21,635 --> 00:41:22,868
but I want you to know

997
00:41:22,903 --> 00:41:25,271
I'm going to do everything
I can to clear his name.
