17
00:00:50,750 --> 00:00:52,706
We don't know if he jumped
or somebody pushed him,

18
00:00:52,707 --> 00:00:55,163
but he had to fall from one
of the apartments above us.

19
00:00:55,164 --> 00:00:56,469
Any witnesses?

20
00:00:56,634 --> 00:00:57,921
No. They saw him hit,

21
00:00:57,922 --> 00:01:00,379
but the crowd sure gathered fast
once he did.

22
00:01:00,546 --> 00:01:02,640
Including the Attorney General's niece.

23
00:01:02,641 --> 00:01:04,818
She hasn't stopped sobbing since.

24
00:01:05,172 --> 00:01:06,483
Let's process this scene quickly,

25
00:01:06,484 --> 00:01:09,222
get the body out of here.
You, uh, get an I.D. on it yet?

26
00:01:09,257 --> 00:01:12,849
No. But I tell you what,
that is one fine Santa suit.

27
00:01:12,883 --> 00:01:17,328
Plush pile. Real leather uppers.
I wish mine was that nice.

28
00:01:17,724 --> 00:01:19,202
The beard appears to be real.

29
00:01:20,253 --> 00:01:24,054
Hey, Jane? Could I trouble you
for a professional opinion?

30
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,044
No.

31
00:01:32,127 --> 00:01:33,130
No what?

32
00:01:33,182 --> 00:01:35,055
This isn't the actual Santa Claus.

33
00:01:35,112 --> 00:01:36,304
Oh, really?

34
00:01:36,305 --> 00:01:39,912
Some say he doesn't exist, period...

35
00:01:39,913 --> 00:01:41,895
That he's a 19th-century marketing gimmick.

36
00:01:41,896 --> 00:01:45,784
I venture no opinion on that,
but this definitely isn't him.

37
00:01:45,785 --> 00:01:47,482
This is an impostor.

38
00:01:47,616 --> 00:01:48,902
And how can you tell?

39
00:01:48,903 --> 00:01:51,520
Santa would smell like reindeer
and chimneys.

40
00:01:51,521 --> 00:01:53,632
This man smells like cheap whiskey.

41
00:01:53,633 --> 00:01:55,829
Uh, excuse me. Could you, uh,

44
00:02:00,324 --> 00:02:01,465
What is that?

45
00:02:02,517 --> 00:02:03,791
Christmas card.

46
00:02:05,767 --> 00:02:07,520
"My life is a lie. Forgive me."

47
00:02:07,521 --> 00:02:09,625
Well, it's not a traditional
Christmas greeting,

48
00:02:09,626 --> 00:02:11,505
but it has punch and concision.

49
00:02:11,956 --> 00:02:13,155
Very, uh, thoughtful of him

50
00:02:13,156 --> 00:02:15,057
to put it in a plastic baggie for us.

51
00:02:15,058 --> 00:02:17,849
Lets us out. It's a straight-up suicide.
Possibly.

52
00:02:18,371 --> 00:02:19,702
But you don't think so.

53
00:02:19,703 --> 00:02:22,548
Here is a man that spends
his time making kids happy...

54
00:02:22,549 --> 00:02:26,184
Putting a little magic in their life,
giving them hope. Yeah?

55
00:02:26,291 --> 00:02:28,204
Would a man like that end his life

56
00:02:28,205 --> 00:02:30,815
making such a bloody spectacle of himself?

57
00:02:30,816 --> 00:02:32,681
In character, in a public place

58
00:02:32,682 --> 00:02:34,659
where children are bound
to see him and spoil

59
00:02:34,660 --> 00:02:38,105
their Christmases forever?
I doubt it. This was murder.

60
00:02:38,106 --> 00:02:40,257
Okay, you may have a point, but, you know,

61
00:02:40,258 --> 00:02:42,331
let's keep an open mind on this... murder.

62
00:02:47,110 --> 00:02:48,320
Happy holidays.

63
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,410
Benjamin Ripple has been
a tenant here for years.

64
00:03:07,457 --> 00:03:08,833
He'd never kill himself.

65
00:03:08,834 --> 00:03:11,589
He enjoyed his life too much, and his art.

66
00:03:11,590 --> 00:03:12,639
His art?

67
00:03:12,640 --> 00:03:14,143
The art of being Santa.

68
00:03:14,681 --> 00:03:17,531
Benjamin lived by the traditions
of St. Nick year-round.

69
00:03:18,913 --> 00:03:21,095
Uh, we'll take it from here. Thanks.

70
00:03:21,931 --> 00:03:23,097
Thank you.

71
00:03:23,167 --> 00:03:24,551
Well...

72
00:03:29,073 --> 00:03:31,484
Now this was a man who knew
how to sustain a moment.

73
00:03:33,106 --> 00:03:35,153
I can't believe people buy this crap.

74
00:03:35,959 --> 00:03:38,956
I sense a Christmas speech coming on.

75
00:03:38,957 --> 00:03:41,989
No, I just think people can celebrate
a holy day

76
00:03:41,990 --> 00:03:44,657
without lying to children
about a magical fat guy

77
00:03:44,658 --> 00:03:46,299
with a sack full of toys.

78
00:03:46,348 --> 00:03:48,811
So you took the whole Santa revelation
badly, huh?

79
00:03:48,812 --> 00:03:50,684
Crushed my heart like a cigarette.

80
00:03:50,738 --> 00:03:53,344
Explains why you're still looking
for magic in your life.

81
00:03:54,057 --> 00:03:56,033
Benjamin Ripple, on the other hand,

82
00:03:56,066 --> 00:03:59,715
chose to keep his childhood
beliefs very much alive.

83
00:04:00,596 --> 00:04:02,751
He was happiest when he was at home.

84
00:04:03,098 --> 00:04:07,278
He felt protected,
and not so popular at school.

85
00:04:07,452 --> 00:04:08,996
I'm guessing his parents died young.

86
00:04:08,997 --> 00:04:13,635
So to cope, he transformed
his most cherished memories

87
00:04:13,636 --> 00:04:15,928
into an identity.

88
00:04:16,507 --> 00:04:18,031
A successful career,

89
00:04:18,032 --> 00:04:20,937
based on this father Christmas
fantasy chalet here.

90
00:04:20,984 --> 00:04:23,542
A career like this? "St. Nick's picks...

91
00:04:23,543 --> 00:04:26,200
your holiday decoration superstore."

92
00:04:26,321 --> 00:04:27,781
It's a mail order business.

93
00:04:27,906 --> 00:04:29,841
Benjamin Ripple was a survivor.

94
00:04:30,227 --> 00:04:32,291
Highly unlikely he took his own life.

95
00:04:32,297 --> 00:04:34,010
So you think the suicide was staged?

96
00:04:34,057 --> 00:04:36,577
Well, it's not to say he was
without his secrets.

97
00:04:36,578 --> 00:04:38,490
We all have secrets, don't we?

98
00:04:39,287 --> 00:04:40,968
And Christmas, well, it's...

99
00:04:41,438 --> 00:04:42,932
Full of contradictions.

100
00:04:43,062 --> 00:04:45,461
The man that devoted his life
to spreading joy

101
00:04:45,462 --> 00:04:47,763
could very likely be hiding a, uh...

102
00:04:48,335 --> 00:04:50,517
What is that? What?

103
00:04:57,743 --> 00:04:59,005
A sobriety chip.

104
00:04:59,066 --> 00:05:01,451
Still waiting on forensics,
but the coroner said

105
00:05:01,452 --> 00:05:05,037
that Santa's blood alcohol
concentration was .45.

106
00:05:05,170 --> 00:05:06,394
That's a lethal level.

107
00:05:06,426 --> 00:05:07,837
So much for sobriety.

108
00:05:07,886 --> 00:05:09,366
Why would somebody kill the victim

109
00:05:09,367 --> 00:05:10,897
if he was dying of booze anyway?

110
00:05:10,898 --> 00:05:13,032
That suggests suicide, not murder.

111
00:05:13,033 --> 00:05:15,633
So does his bank account.
I ran Ripple's financials.

112
00:05:15,634 --> 00:05:17,652
His mail order business was hit hard
by the recession.

113
00:05:17,653 --> 00:05:18,543
It's almost bankrupt.

114
00:05:18,544 --> 00:05:20,554
So his business takes a dive,
Ripple starts drinking,

115
00:05:20,555 --> 00:05:23,524
then he takes a dive straight off
his building. Guess again.

116
00:05:23,565 --> 00:05:25,480
I showed the suicide note
to our handwriting analyst,

117
00:05:25,481 --> 00:05:27,558
compared it to attested samples
of Ripple's signature.

118
00:05:27,605 --> 00:05:30,185
He didn't write the note.
And we're back to murder.

119
00:05:30,218 --> 00:05:31,602
What else do we know about Ripple?

120
00:05:31,654 --> 00:05:33,624
Uh, he's president of something called

121
00:05:33,625 --> 00:05:36,023
the national society of authentic Santas.

122
00:05:36,058 --> 00:05:38,336
What's that?
It's a fraternal group dedicated

123
00:05:38,337 --> 00:05:40,200
to the accurate portrayal of Santa Claus.

124
00:05:40,423 --> 00:05:42,072
One of Ripple's neighbors told me about it.

125
00:05:42,131 --> 00:05:43,571
They're having a convention downtown.

126
00:05:43,623 --> 00:05:45,379
Rigsby, you and Van Pelt head over there,

127
00:05:45,380 --> 00:05:46,820
see what you can find out...

128
00:05:47,231 --> 00:05:50,573
After Hightower's briefing
on the Johnson killing.

129
00:05:50,710 --> 00:05:51,754
What does she have to brief us for?

130
00:05:51,755 --> 00:05:53,096
Someone torched a cop killer.

131
00:05:53,097 --> 00:05:54,751
It happened in our house. It's not right.

132
00:05:54,752 --> 00:05:56,368
He was a cop killer. Good riddance.

133
00:05:56,369 --> 00:05:59,281
Yeah, okay, zip it if you know
what's good for you.

134
00:06:01,079 --> 00:06:03,044
Walk over. I'm gonna go round up Jane.

135
00:06:05,983 --> 00:06:07,163
Two days ago,

136
00:06:07,197 --> 00:06:09,894
a suspect was doused in an accelerant

137
00:06:10,121 --> 00:06:13,225
and set alight in a CBI holding cell.

138
00:06:13,271 --> 00:06:18,050
This was not karma, rough justice, payback.

139
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,237
This was a criminal act.

140
00:06:20,271 --> 00:06:24,219
The homicide investigation
will be led by J.J. LaRoche,

141
00:06:24,220 --> 00:06:26,553
the new head of our professional
standards unit.

142
00:06:27,728 --> 00:06:28,773
Thank you.

143
00:06:29,375 --> 00:06:31,232
Who the hell is J.J. LaRoche?

144
00:06:33,366 --> 00:06:35,181
Excuse me. Sorry.

145
00:06:40,705 --> 00:06:42,236
Thank you, Ms. Hightower.

146
00:06:46,123 --> 00:06:49,295
It's very likely that one of you
people here in this room

147
00:06:49,683 --> 00:06:50,961
is the murderer.

148
00:06:51,714 --> 00:06:53,104
You know who you are.

149
00:06:54,351 --> 00:06:56,109
Okay, lights, please.

150
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,278
We're going to run through the facts now...

151
00:07:01,984 --> 00:07:04,329
So that we are all on the same page.

152
00:07:07,556 --> 00:07:10,936
The victim was Todd Johnson.

153
00:07:10,997 --> 00:07:12,341
E.M.T.

154
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,087
Responsible for killing six policemen

155
00:07:15,136 --> 00:07:18,426
and a young woman, that we know of.

156
00:07:23,112 --> 00:07:24,860
Our updated security system

157
00:07:24,861 --> 00:07:28,804
has provided me with a very accurate list

158
00:07:28,950 --> 00:07:31,260
of everybody who was in this building

159
00:07:31,294 --> 00:07:32,874
at the time of the murder.

160
00:07:32,997 --> 00:07:34,455
This guy should charge admission.

161
00:07:34,456 --> 00:07:38,885
I will be talking selectively
with some of you on the list

162
00:07:39,507 --> 00:07:40,500
over the next days,

163
00:07:40,501 --> 00:07:44,612
my people will be taking blood,
hair, and tissue samples

164
00:07:44,613 --> 00:07:46,490
from everybody on the list.

165
00:07:46,525 --> 00:07:50,210
Your cooperation is expected
and appreciated.

166
00:07:50,211 --> 00:07:52,239
Uh, excuse me. Yes.

167
00:07:52,404 --> 00:07:53,672
Why the samples?

168
00:07:57,674 --> 00:07:58,888
What's your name?

169
00:07:59,753 --> 00:08:01,047
Wayne Rigsby.

170
00:08:06,876 --> 00:08:07,986
Wayne...

171
00:08:08,469 --> 00:08:11,201
We need the samples...

172
00:08:11,752 --> 00:08:13,825
To test for accelerants.

173
00:08:15,590 --> 00:08:17,237
Thank you for your interest.

174
00:08:19,427 --> 00:08:21,019
Any other questions?

175
00:08:51,531 --> 00:08:53,385
Tyger, Tyger...

176
00:09:05,272 --> 00:09:07,174
You remembered something.

177
00:09:09,263 --> 00:09:10,062
Did I?

178
00:09:10,063 --> 00:09:12,995
Yes, you did. What was it?

179
00:09:13,043 --> 00:09:16,317
The smell of a man burning.
Do you know that smell?

180
00:09:16,374 --> 00:09:18,656
Yes. Very like barbecue.

181
00:09:19,459 --> 00:09:22,229
But we both know that's not
what I'm referring to.

182
00:09:22,975 --> 00:09:24,358
A lighter.

183
00:09:26,212 --> 00:09:28,317
I opened the door, Todd was on fire,

184
00:09:28,318 --> 00:09:30,740
and there was a green lighter on the bench.

185
00:09:32,089 --> 00:09:34,838
But it wasn't in the evidence report.

186
00:09:35,915 --> 00:09:38,664
You read the evidence report.
Oh, more like skimmed.

187
00:09:38,712 --> 00:09:40,694
You know, those things are not exactly
summer reading,

188
00:09:40,695 --> 00:09:43,298
but I get paid to consult, so skim I do.

189
00:09:49,274 --> 00:09:51,818
It's on its way to the FBI crime lab.

190
00:09:51,985 --> 00:09:52,809
May I?

191
00:09:52,841 --> 00:09:53,691
No.

192
00:09:56,976 --> 00:09:59,733
I won't be needing your consultation
on this case.

193
00:10:00,455 --> 00:10:02,918
But you and I will talk this afternoon.

194
00:10:02,973 --> 00:10:04,378
Look forward to it.

195
00:10:05,898 --> 00:10:09,106
♪♪

196
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,118
Wow. Santapalooza.

197
00:10:20,279 --> 00:10:23,922
...For Santa Henry's social media
workshop at 3:00.

198
00:10:23,980 --> 00:10:26,476
And, uh, don't forget to buy
your raffle tickets

199
00:10:26,477 --> 00:10:28,458
for the jingle ball tonight.

200
00:10:28,947 --> 00:10:30,533
Oh, hi. I'm Bob. Can I help you?

201
00:10:30,534 --> 00:10:33,598
Agent Wayne Rigsby.
This is Agent Van Pelt. We're from CBI.

202
00:10:33,635 --> 00:10:35,602
Oh, you're here about Benjamin.

203
00:10:37,887 --> 00:10:39,234
He should be up here, not me.

204
00:10:39,235 --> 00:10:42,015
I mean, we're just all trying
to move ahead here.

205
00:10:42,016 --> 00:10:44,780
It's what he'd want.
Were you close with the victim?

206
00:10:44,819 --> 00:10:46,611
Yes, I was. Um, we all were...

207
00:10:46,612 --> 00:10:47,823
Liar!

208
00:10:49,684 --> 00:10:51,363
You hated Benjamin.

209
00:10:51,766 --> 00:10:53,595
You were trying to kick him out of office.

210
00:10:53,627 --> 00:10:57,433
- Well, congratulations. You got what
you wanted. - And you are?

211
00:10:58,323 --> 00:10:59,399
Tony.

212
00:10:59,949 --> 00:11:02,187
And that man had a vendetta
against Benjamin

213
00:11:02,188 --> 00:11:03,684
because he wanted to open our doors

214
00:11:03,685 --> 00:11:06,057
to Santas of all races, creeds, and colors.

215
00:11:06,058 --> 00:11:08,180
Which will never happen.

216
00:11:09,961 --> 00:11:12,454
Look, if Santa isn't white, male,
and Christian,

217
00:11:12,455 --> 00:11:14,984
then what the heck is he? He's everyone.

218
00:11:15,086 --> 00:11:17,228
He's the spirit of generosity in all of us.

219
00:11:17,229 --> 00:11:20,137
He's the...
Oh, would you be quiet, you dumb hippie?

220
00:11:20,772 --> 00:11:22,054
Hey! Hey! Okay, let's just...

221
00:11:22,055 --> 00:11:24,411
Let's just go for a little drive, shall we?

222
00:11:25,643 --> 00:11:28,015
Everything's fine. Just... carry on.

223
00:11:31,463 --> 00:11:32,834
Happy Hanukkah.

224
00:11:33,430 --> 00:11:34,807
Feliz navidad.

225
00:11:47,164 --> 00:11:48,518
Where's Patrick Jane?

226
00:11:49,345 --> 00:11:50,581
In the field.

227
00:11:52,272 --> 00:11:53,943
That's inconvenient.

228
00:11:57,541 --> 00:11:59,506
I'm sorry. Is there a problem?

229
00:11:59,647 --> 00:12:00,899
Yes.

230
00:12:01,378 --> 00:12:03,933
Jane is the lead suspect
in my investigation,

231
00:12:03,934 --> 00:12:05,414
and I can't find him.

232
00:12:06,549 --> 00:12:08,235
Jane's your lead suspect?

233
00:12:09,676 --> 00:12:11,197
You smile.

234
00:12:12,857 --> 00:12:15,790
You think he's not capable of murder?

235
00:12:15,918 --> 00:12:18,795
He's capable. I'm smiling because

236
00:12:18,796 --> 00:12:21,240
it's an absurd idea, Jane killing Johnson.

237
00:12:21,241 --> 00:12:23,449
He caught him. He put him in that cell.

238
00:12:23,524 --> 00:12:26,526
He was the last person to see him
alive in that cell.

239
00:12:26,585 --> 00:12:28,330
And I was next to last.

240
00:12:28,741 --> 00:12:31,130
Look, Johnson asked to speak with Jane.

241
00:12:31,164 --> 00:12:33,759
He said he had a secret
he wouldn't tell anyone else.

242
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,406
Jane didn't want to see him. I made him go.

243
00:12:36,788 --> 00:12:39,361
The guy was on fire when
he opened the cell door.

244
00:12:39,852 --> 00:12:41,013
Why would Jane kill him?

245
00:12:41,050 --> 00:12:43,952
That's what I shall ask him...

246
00:12:45,265 --> 00:12:46,586
When I find him.

247
00:12:48,678 --> 00:12:51,247
Hey, Lisbon.
Uh, LaRoche is looking for you.

248
00:12:51,297 --> 00:12:54,801
Oh. Wish him luck. Jane,
you don't want to rile this one up.

249
00:12:54,802 --> 00:12:56,027
You should probably come in.

250
00:12:56,078 --> 00:12:58,839
Uh, did you track down Ripple's alcohol
recovery group?

251
00:12:58,984 --> 00:13:00,783
Well, I think I found what I'm looking for.

252
00:13:00,817 --> 00:13:01,885
Gotta go!

253
00:13:10,058 --> 00:13:11,401
Hey, Virgil.

254
00:13:13,092 --> 00:13:14,570
Patrick.

255
00:13:14,889 --> 00:13:16,334
What are you doing here?

256
00:13:16,445 --> 00:13:18,717
Your old assistant told me
where to find you.

257
00:13:19,301 --> 00:13:21,319
I need your help. Well, that's a twist.

258
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,355
You never needed my help
when I was your boss.

259
00:13:23,475 --> 00:13:25,531
What help could I be now?

260
00:13:25,532 --> 00:13:29,077
A cop-killer burned alive
in CBI custody. I heard.

261
00:13:30,261 --> 00:13:32,375
Listen, if it's anything to do with that,
I don't want to...

262
00:13:32,376 --> 00:13:34,952
Whoever set the fire works for Red John.

263
00:13:35,951 --> 00:13:37,133
Jane...

264
00:13:37,958 --> 00:13:40,518
He was a member of Red John's network.

265
00:13:40,553 --> 00:13:42,391
And another member of his network

266
00:13:42,392 --> 00:13:44,295
killed him to stop him from talking.

267
00:13:44,296 --> 00:13:48,537
But here's the thing...
Red John doesn't know I know that.

268
00:13:49,013 --> 00:13:51,354
For the first time, I have the advantage.

269
00:13:52,013 --> 00:13:53,915
You sound nuts, my friend.

270
00:13:54,118 --> 00:13:56,112
No, th-this is real.

271
00:13:56,534 --> 00:13:58,533
If I can find who killed Todd Johnson,

272
00:13:58,534 --> 00:14:00,408
I can trace them back to Red John.

273
00:14:00,409 --> 00:14:02,448
I need LaRoche's suspect list,

274
00:14:02,545 --> 00:14:06,313
which you, with all your back-channel
contacts,

275
00:14:06,346 --> 00:14:07,417
can get me.

276
00:14:08,863 --> 00:14:11,116
What does Lisbon think of your theory?

277
00:14:11,264 --> 00:14:13,702
I can't tell her. That'd put her at risk.

278
00:14:13,805 --> 00:14:15,249
Of course.

279
00:14:15,606 --> 00:14:17,026
And what about me?

280
00:14:17,060 --> 00:14:18,967
You're a brave old man
with nothing to lose.

281
00:14:20,094 --> 00:14:21,531
Not so brave.

282
00:14:21,952 --> 00:14:23,660
Not so old.

283
00:14:24,140 --> 00:14:26,751
What do you say? Will you help me?

284
00:14:27,634 --> 00:14:29,309
You need a different kind of help.

285
00:14:30,053 --> 00:14:33,640
Red John has turned you into a paranoid
conspiracy freak.

286
00:14:35,269 --> 00:14:37,619
This from a guy on a pier with
2 40s under his chair

287
00:14:37,620 --> 00:14:39,106
and no fish in his bucket?

288
00:14:39,500 --> 00:14:41,330
You're not even using the right bait.

289
00:14:41,387 --> 00:14:42,558
Am so.

290
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:45,496
What do you do when you catch one?

291
00:14:45,549 --> 00:14:47,992
Depends on what kind of fish it is. No.

292
00:14:48,421 --> 00:14:50,816
When you catch one,
no matter what kind it is,

293
00:14:50,852 --> 00:14:53,231
you will stop and you will look at it,

294
00:14:53,283 --> 00:14:55,196
at this piece of life that you destroyed,

295
00:14:55,197 --> 00:14:56,280
and you will think to yourself,

296
00:14:56,281 --> 00:14:59,588
"what the hell am I doing here,
a drunken fish-killer,

297
00:15:00,102 --> 00:15:01,623
when I could be doing something useful?"

298
00:15:01,624 --> 00:15:03,132
And then you'll call me.

299
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,302
You two should be ashamed of yourselves.

300
00:15:19,841 --> 00:15:22,104
You, with the grudge,
where were you last night?

301
00:15:22,339 --> 00:15:24,210
Having some drinks with the guys.

302
00:15:24,405 --> 00:15:25,431
They were plotting ways to

303
00:15:25,432 --> 00:15:28,149
replace Benjamin as president.
How would you know?

304
00:15:28,270 --> 00:15:29,280
Is it true?

305
00:15:30,765 --> 00:15:32,635
Look, I'm head of the steering committee.

306
00:15:32,959 --> 00:15:35,467
Benjamin was using our society
as a platform

307
00:15:35,468 --> 00:15:37,807
to promote his online business.

308
00:15:37,910 --> 00:15:39,810
And how'd you know what they were
talking about last night?

309
00:15:39,841 --> 00:15:42,845
I was sitting two stools away
at the hotel bar.

310
00:15:43,184 --> 00:15:45,516
They had no idea who I was
without the beard.

311
00:15:45,570 --> 00:15:46,822
Oh, gee, a spy!

312
00:15:46,823 --> 00:15:49,474
A concerned member of the N.S.A.S.

313
00:15:50,039 --> 00:15:52,073
They were trying to take over his position.

314
00:15:52,452 --> 00:15:54,714
And they were drooling over his date.

315
00:15:54,976 --> 00:15:56,456
The victim had a date at the bar?

316
00:15:56,502 --> 00:15:58,407
No, at the opening night mixer.

317
00:15:58,819 --> 00:16:02,343
An attractive young woman.
You called her his ho-ho-ho.

318
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,316
Oh, come on. You can't tell me
that Benjamin didn't pay for her

319
00:16:05,317 --> 00:16:07,067
with the proceeds from
that online superstore

320
00:16:07,068 --> 00:16:08,488
that he built on our backs!

321
00:16:08,522 --> 00:16:10,175
Either of you happen to catch
the name of this woman?

322
00:16:10,570 --> 00:16:12,018
Roxy. Roxy.

323
00:16:16,030 --> 00:16:20,435
So, we were all close to Benjamin.

324
00:16:23,874 --> 00:16:26,884
I was his sponsor for ten years.

325
00:16:27,317 --> 00:16:30,935
But really, he helped me up.

326
00:16:30,936 --> 00:16:34,397
♪♪

327
00:16:35,236 --> 00:16:39,437
It's okay, I'm okay. Thanks.

328
00:16:40,250 --> 00:16:41,692
Let's just forge ahead.

329
00:16:44,137 --> 00:16:47,363
Are there any newcomers
in their first few days of sobriety

330
00:16:47,364 --> 00:16:48,801
who would like a welcome chip?

331
00:16:55,786 --> 00:16:56,999
Why not?

332
00:16:59,769 --> 00:17:01,326
Oh, okay.

333
00:17:01,467 --> 00:17:03,244
Thank you very... Thank you.

334
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:04,907
Okay.

335
00:17:10,758 --> 00:17:12,560
Guess I'll be a newcomer every day.

336
00:17:14,305 --> 00:17:16,247
It's customary to introduce yourself.

337
00:17:16,248 --> 00:17:17,640
First name only.

338
00:17:18,409 --> 00:17:19,518
Patrick.

339
00:17:19,564 --> 00:17:20,900
Hi, Patrick.

340
00:17:20,953 --> 00:17:22,187
Hi, folks.

341
00:17:22,550 --> 00:17:25,228
Anybody who can sponsor Patrick,
please raise your hand.

342
00:17:26,570 --> 00:17:27,906
Would you?

343
00:17:29,792 --> 00:17:31,630
Sure. Sure.

344
00:17:31,673 --> 00:17:33,963
Um, of... of course. I'd be happy to.

345
00:17:33,996 --> 00:17:35,221
Thank you.

346
00:17:35,486 --> 00:17:37,659
Would you like to share, Patrick?

347
00:17:40,517 --> 00:17:43,516
Uh, no, I'm not... I'm not ready
to share. Not yet, thanks.

348
00:17:43,645 --> 00:17:46,102
Well, nobody will think less of you
if you don't,

349
00:17:46,103 --> 00:17:49,227
but you won't find a more supportive
group than we are.

350
00:17:50,432 --> 00:17:51,446
We all...

351
00:17:51,857 --> 00:17:56,090
Find relief in sharing our...
our daily struggle with addiction.

352
00:17:56,151 --> 00:17:58,913
Well, to be perfectly honest,
I'm not an addict.

353
00:18:01,272 --> 00:18:02,570
I, um...

354
00:18:03,883 --> 00:18:05,073
Well, that's...

355
00:18:09,089 --> 00:18:11,494
That's not strictly true.
I do have an addiction.

356
00:18:12,554 --> 00:18:13,980
Go on.

357
00:18:14,854 --> 00:18:16,396
You're safe here.

358
00:18:17,893 --> 00:18:19,467
It, um...

359
00:18:19,571 --> 00:18:21,494
Destroyed my family.

360
00:18:24,150 --> 00:18:27,018
But I-I c... I can't talk about it. I...

361
00:18:27,051 --> 00:18:28,105
It's not that I don't want to.

362
00:18:28,106 --> 00:18:31,010
It's just, I have so many bad things
in my head that I'd...

363
00:18:31,061 --> 00:18:32,822
Like to throw out, I just...

364
00:18:38,812 --> 00:18:41,614
If I start talking about it...

365
00:18:49,476 --> 00:18:50,826
I...

366
00:18:51,374 --> 00:18:53,476
Just don't know that I'll be able to stop.

367
00:18:56,008 --> 00:18:57,147
Excuse me.

368
00:19:02,522 --> 00:19:04,327
Anybody else wanna share?

369
00:19:08,213 --> 00:19:09,479
What are you doing here?

370
00:19:10,248 --> 00:19:11,619
Watching you.

371
00:19:13,883 --> 00:19:16,295
You have substance abuse issues, Patrick?

372
00:19:16,340 --> 00:19:18,801
There's no tag for that in your files.

373
00:19:18,856 --> 00:19:20,131
I'm on a case.

374
00:19:21,327 --> 00:19:24,079
You're telling me those words back there...
They weren't real?

375
00:19:24,126 --> 00:19:25,677
I mean, you're sweating.

376
00:19:25,709 --> 00:19:27,236
Simple parlor trick.

377
00:19:27,575 --> 00:19:30,034
With biofeedback, you can train
your mind to control

378
00:19:30,035 --> 00:19:32,914
involuntary body processes...
heart rate, blood pressure...

379
00:19:33,370 --> 00:19:34,646
Temperature.

380
00:19:35,107 --> 00:19:36,578
I'm glad you enjoyed the performance.

381
00:19:36,610 --> 00:19:38,405
So you're working undercover?

382
00:19:38,439 --> 00:19:40,719
Which you just blew for me.
Thank you very much.

383
00:19:40,775 --> 00:19:42,215
Well, I doubt that.

384
00:19:42,968 --> 00:19:45,946
Up to the moment you left,
you had them transfixed.

385
00:19:48,282 --> 00:19:49,632
What's that like...

386
00:19:50,401 --> 00:19:52,769
Such power over people?

387
00:19:52,819 --> 00:19:54,156
You tell me.

388
00:19:54,682 --> 00:19:58,819
I expect this Robocop routine of yours
normally works

389
00:19:58,867 --> 00:20:00,182
quite effectively.

390
00:20:01,779 --> 00:20:02,901
Normally.

391
00:20:03,895 --> 00:20:08,208
But you seem immune,
so I may have to step up my efforts.

392
00:20:09,709 --> 00:20:11,633
Or we could go back to CBI right now

393
00:20:11,634 --> 00:20:13,873
and conduct the interview you owe me.

394
00:20:14,084 --> 00:20:16,312
Patrick? Everything okay?

395
00:20:16,313 --> 00:20:17,904
Yeah, I was just getting some air.

396
00:20:18,094 --> 00:20:19,849
I'll come back in now.

397
00:20:30,752 --> 00:20:32,966
How was Ripple's A.A. group?
Did you learn anything?

398
00:20:32,998 --> 00:20:35,415
Yes. They're very big on hugs.

399
00:20:35,603 --> 00:20:37,028
About the victim?

400
00:20:37,062 --> 00:20:39,552
Well, I'll learn more tomorrow
when I speak with his sponsor,

401
00:20:39,553 --> 00:20:41,173
who is now my sponsor, too.

402
00:20:42,036 --> 00:20:45,106
May Walters. Lovely lady... or a killer.
I can't tell.

403
00:20:45,166 --> 00:20:46,799
You went undercover?

404
00:20:46,831 --> 00:20:50,194
Yes. Why is that so hard to accept?
You never go undercover.

405
00:20:50,333 --> 00:20:54,018
Precisely. I wanted to have some fun,
just like you guys seem to.

406
00:20:54,603 --> 00:20:56,170
Anything on the other Santas?

407
00:20:56,590 --> 00:20:59,620
Santa Bob has motive.
I'm running down his alibi.

408
00:21:00,499 --> 00:21:01,908
They did give us a new lead.

409
00:21:03,123 --> 00:21:06,657
Hello, Roxy Rhodes.
Real name... Roxanne Rabinovich.

410
00:21:06,658 --> 00:21:08,774
No record, but she works
at an elite escort service.

411
00:21:08,775 --> 00:21:10,812
Spent an evening with the victim
the night before he died.

412
00:21:10,843 --> 00:21:13,518
Whoa. Santa got some naughty this year.
Yeah.

413
00:21:13,551 --> 00:21:15,946
We should bring her in here tomorrow.
Yeah, I can question her.

414
00:21:15,947 --> 00:21:18,057
It's my lead. Just offering to help out.

415
00:21:18,500 --> 00:21:20,157
All right. We have a situation.

416
00:21:20,350 --> 00:21:21,972
Someone broke into Ripple's apartment.

417
00:21:26,061 --> 00:21:27,783
Now two hours after we cleared
the crime scene,

418
00:21:27,784 --> 00:21:29,135
we get a call from a neighbor,

419
00:21:29,522 --> 00:21:31,696
says she hears a lot of crashing
inside the apartment.

420
00:21:32,705 --> 00:21:34,544
Looks like they were looking for something.

421
00:21:36,469 --> 00:21:37,795
Any signs of forced entry?

422
00:21:37,908 --> 00:21:39,812
None. We think somebody had the key.

423
00:21:39,990 --> 00:21:42,090
Must have been one of the elves.

424
00:21:46,598 --> 00:21:47,830
Do you know this man?

425
00:21:48,248 --> 00:21:51,493
Sure. Benjamin. We hung out.

426
00:21:51,632 --> 00:21:53,336
He was murdered two days ago.

427
00:21:55,844 --> 00:21:56,760
Okay.

428
00:21:56,821 --> 00:21:58,675
You don't seem very broken up over this.

429
00:21:59,088 --> 00:22:01,315
Why should I be? I don't marry them.

430
00:22:01,726 --> 00:22:04,282
Just provide a standard g.F.E.

431
00:22:04,313 --> 00:22:06,427
G.F.E.? Girlfriend experience.

432
00:22:07,910 --> 00:22:10,202
I'm paid to show up
and act like I like them,

433
00:22:10,233 --> 00:22:12,791
but I don't get emotionally
involved with clients.

434
00:22:13,209 --> 00:22:15,175
That way madness lies, you know?

435
00:22:15,233 --> 00:22:17,642
And Ripple was a client. No...

436
00:22:17,685 --> 00:22:19,435
But you were his date
at the Santa convention?

437
00:22:20,104 --> 00:22:21,862
I was paid by someone else.

438
00:22:21,912 --> 00:22:23,033
And how does that work?

439
00:22:23,083 --> 00:22:26,409
I'm paid to attend A.A. meetings
and recovery groups

440
00:22:26,410 --> 00:22:28,085
and recruit patients.

441
00:22:28,115 --> 00:22:31,384
Patients for what? This man, Jack Wilder.

442
00:22:32,136 --> 00:22:34,966
He owns a treatment facility
for alcohol addiction.

443
00:22:35,693 --> 00:22:36,716
Very exclusive.

444
00:22:36,768 --> 00:22:39,233
Only the financially secure can afford it.

445
00:22:39,278 --> 00:22:40,995
So let me get this straight...
Wilder hires you

446
00:22:40,996 --> 00:22:43,227
to cruise A.A. meetings
looking for rich drunks?

447
00:22:43,630 --> 00:22:45,784
I meet 'em, chat 'em up, and tell them

448
00:22:45,785 --> 00:22:49,085
about this miraculous treatment
facility that changed my life.

449
00:22:49,116 --> 00:22:50,536
So you underwent the treatment?

450
00:22:51,330 --> 00:22:54,897
No. Tequila is my dear friend.

451
00:22:55,162 --> 00:22:57,954
But that doesn't mean the center
didn't change my life.

452
00:22:58,010 --> 00:22:59,680
You should see my new Jaguar.

453
00:23:01,352 --> 00:23:02,600
No doubt.

454
00:23:03,017 --> 00:23:04,537
Do you have an address for Wilder?

455
00:23:05,092 --> 00:23:06,634
You were very brave yesterday,

456
00:23:06,679 --> 00:23:07,973
sharing like that.

457
00:23:08,008 --> 00:23:11,392
Nah. You were in love with Benjamin,
weren't you?

458
00:23:13,306 --> 00:23:16,585
It's why the program doesn't encourage
opposite-sex sponsors.

459
00:23:16,704 --> 00:23:18,491
But he didn't return the feelings.

460
00:23:19,761 --> 00:23:21,354
I think he did...

461
00:23:21,781 --> 00:23:23,234
In his own way.

462
00:23:24,544 --> 00:23:27,339
But Benjamin had his priorities.

463
00:23:27,393 --> 00:23:28,492
The red suit.

464
00:23:28,543 --> 00:23:33,021
I imagine that left you feeling ignored?
Alone? Angry?

465
00:23:33,061 --> 00:23:33,787
Got that right.

466
00:23:33,788 --> 00:23:35,513
Angry enough to destroy his home?

467
00:23:38,349 --> 00:23:39,351
Who are you?

468
00:23:39,405 --> 00:23:40,945
I'm a consultant for the CBI.

469
00:23:40,946 --> 00:23:42,765
We're investigating Benjamin's murder.

470
00:23:42,804 --> 00:23:44,458
You lied about your addiction?

471
00:23:44,489 --> 00:23:47,044
No. That's real enough, I suppose.

472
00:23:47,855 --> 00:23:49,906
Where were you the night Benjamin
was killed?

473
00:23:50,039 --> 00:23:51,971
Alone in my apartment.

474
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:55,032
May, they're gonna treat you
like a suspect.

475
00:23:55,033 --> 00:23:56,570
You destroyed their crime scene.

476
00:23:57,036 --> 00:23:58,699
I went there to find something.

477
00:23:59,686 --> 00:24:02,079
You know, to... to remember Benjamin by?

478
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,732
When I saw the decorations, I-I got mad.

479
00:24:06,986 --> 00:24:08,443
Santa was...

480
00:24:09,227 --> 00:24:11,753
Was another form of addiction for Benjamin.

481
00:24:12,228 --> 00:24:15,687
Any time anything cuts you off
from experiencing your life,

482
00:24:15,688 --> 00:24:17,370
I-it's unhealthy, right?

483
00:24:17,757 --> 00:24:18,971
Wouldn't know.

484
00:24:19,018 --> 00:24:20,295
Last week,

485
00:24:20,439 --> 00:24:22,483
for the first time in ten years,

486
00:24:22,538 --> 00:24:24,199
he took a shot of vodka.

487
00:24:26,173 --> 00:24:28,128
It crushed both of us.

488
00:24:30,936 --> 00:24:33,681
Is this what you were looking for
in Benjamin's apartment?

489
00:24:41,374 --> 00:24:43,408
Best ten years of my life.

490
00:24:45,704 --> 00:24:49,745
♪♪

491
00:24:54,198 --> 00:24:56,635
Jack Wilder, behavioral therapist.

492
00:24:56,686 --> 00:24:57,507
Sorry to keep you waiting.

493
00:24:57,508 --> 00:25:00,238
Agent Lisbon, Van Pelt. We're with the CBI.

494
00:25:00,283 --> 00:25:02,820
We came to see if Benjamin Ripple
was a patient here.

495
00:25:04,422 --> 00:25:07,936
Uh, you know what?
Let's talk about this in my office.

496
00:25:09,052 --> 00:25:12,607
This is a licensed medical facility,
ladies.

497
00:25:12,608 --> 00:25:14,681
My client list is privileged.

498
00:25:14,682 --> 00:25:15,807
Are you a doctor?

499
00:25:16,226 --> 00:25:18,283
Technically, no, but I do have a license...

500
00:25:18,284 --> 00:25:20,638
Well, this is a homicide investigation.
You're a suspect.

501
00:25:20,639 --> 00:25:22,041
There is no privilege here.

502
00:25:22,147 --> 00:25:25,311
Homicide? Benjamin's dead?

503
00:25:25,350 --> 00:25:27,607
With enough alcohol in his system
to kill an elephant.

504
00:25:27,761 --> 00:25:30,113
A girl from an escort service says
that you paid her

505
00:25:30,114 --> 00:25:32,476
to steer Benjamin to your clinic.
Is that correct?

506
00:25:32,524 --> 00:25:34,818
That's impossible.
My clients would never take a drink

507
00:25:34,819 --> 00:25:36,705
so soon after treatment. When did he die?

508
00:25:36,736 --> 00:25:37,606
Two nights ago.

509
00:25:37,607 --> 00:25:38,795
When did you treat him?

510
00:25:41,231 --> 00:25:42,573
Two nights ago.

511
00:25:45,413 --> 00:25:48,412
Aversion therapy can be used
to treat any bad habit...

512
00:25:48,444 --> 00:25:52,141
Uh, smoking, alcoholism,
gambling, violence...

513
00:25:52,734 --> 00:25:54,299
Sexual deviancy.

514
00:25:54,719 --> 00:25:55,872
My methods are based

515
00:25:55,873 --> 00:25:58,225
on classical conditioning techniques.

516
00:25:58,347 --> 00:25:59,432
Please.

517
00:26:01,250 --> 00:26:03,781
I can turn the pleasurable
activity of drinking

518
00:26:03,835 --> 00:26:05,274
into a repulsive one

519
00:26:05,669 --> 00:26:07,324
by pairing it with noxious smells,

520
00:26:07,355 --> 00:26:08,887
nausea-inducing medication,

521
00:26:09,396 --> 00:26:11,140
low-grade electric shock.

522
00:26:11,584 --> 00:26:14,567
Of course, I record all my sessions
on a hard drive

523
00:26:14,568 --> 00:26:16,234
for insurance reasons, so...

524
00:26:18,429 --> 00:26:19,925
Uh... ah, here we go.

525
00:26:20,176 --> 00:26:22,497
He's blowing .20.

526
00:26:22,550 --> 00:26:25,852
150 over 90. We should stop now. He's okay.

527
00:26:25,883 --> 00:26:29,368
Who is that nurse there?
Uh, Lailah Bloom.

528
00:26:29,498 --> 00:26:32,052
Registered nurse. Ten years E.R.
experience behind her.

529
00:26:32,084 --> 00:26:34,137
She monitors my patients
every step of the way.

530
00:26:34,170 --> 00:26:36,513
We he very strict safety protocols.

531
00:26:36,549 --> 00:26:37,781
How you feeling, Benjamin?

532
00:26:37,812 --> 00:26:39,416
Beautiful.

533
00:26:39,943 --> 00:26:42,225
Uh, sleepy.

534
00:26:42,914 --> 00:26:44,301
I love this guy.

535
00:26:44,936 --> 00:26:47,095
All right, you can turn the camera off now.

536
00:26:47,859 --> 00:26:49,172
Let's get you home.

537
00:26:51,726 --> 00:26:53,671
As you can see, he was perfectly fine.

538
00:26:53,884 --> 00:26:56,724
After treatment, I drove Benjamin
back to his apartment.

539
00:26:56,769 --> 00:26:58,920
You were inside his home the night
he was killed.

540
00:26:58,966 --> 00:27:01,091
I make sure all my patients
get home safely.

541
00:27:04,213 --> 00:27:08,199
What I offer here is a very personal,
hands-on therapy.

542
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,438
It's the only way to make effective
change in people's lives.

543
00:27:10,439 --> 00:27:11,970
That and call girls.

544
00:27:11,971 --> 00:27:13,698
It's an interesting way to drum up
business.

545
00:27:13,726 --> 00:27:16,698
What you see as a call girl,
I see as a marketing expert

546
00:27:16,863 --> 00:27:20,086
with keen insights into the needs
and desires of my clientele.

547
00:27:21,331 --> 00:27:23,504
I focus on highly driven professionals.

548
00:27:28,348 --> 00:27:30,787
Give us a few minutes? Sorry.

549
00:27:33,090 --> 00:27:34,426
Men like Benjamin have more to lose

550
00:27:34,427 --> 00:27:36,113
if they can't control their urges.

551
00:27:36,232 --> 00:27:39,571
Before you trash my methods,
talk to my patients.

552
00:27:39,752 --> 00:27:42,558
My success rate is higher
than any alcohol treatment center

553
00:27:42,590 --> 00:27:43,889
in the state.

554
00:27:44,453 --> 00:27:46,161
Excuse me. I need to make a call.

555
00:27:47,110 --> 00:27:49,052
And I'd like to see that entire video.

556
00:27:54,706 --> 00:27:57,613
Lailah, right? You okay?

557
00:27:57,951 --> 00:27:59,018
Fine.

558
00:28:01,230 --> 00:28:02,462
No, you're not.

559
00:28:03,736 --> 00:28:05,041
Talk to me.

560
00:28:07,774 --> 00:28:09,340
Did Mr. Wilder tell you what happened

561
00:28:09,341 --> 00:28:11,109
after I turned off the camera?

562
00:28:14,236 --> 00:28:16,011
Benjamin passed out.

563
00:28:16,841 --> 00:28:19,730
His breathing was shallow,
his temperature was dropping.

564
00:28:19,808 --> 00:28:21,222
Alcohol poisoning?

565
00:28:21,293 --> 00:28:22,530
Yes.

566
00:28:22,981 --> 00:28:25,697
I told Mr. Wilder we should get
Benjamin to a doctor...

567
00:28:25,826 --> 00:28:27,467
a medical doctor.

568
00:28:28,269 --> 00:28:30,116
But he said he had it under control,

569
00:28:30,691 --> 00:28:31,776
and they left.

570
00:28:31,807 --> 00:28:33,970
Has anything like that ever happened
here before?

571
00:28:36,233 --> 00:28:40,566
Look, I think Mr. Wilder is a great man,
okay?

572
00:28:40,663 --> 00:28:42,050
I grew up with alcoholic parents,

573
00:28:42,051 --> 00:28:45,303
so I'm a big believer in pushing
limits to find a cure.

574
00:28:46,399 --> 00:28:47,756
But now...

575
00:28:48,993 --> 00:28:50,343
I don't know.

576
00:28:50,825 --> 00:28:52,445
Thanks for talking to me.

577
00:28:55,193 --> 00:28:58,207
Lailah said Ripple was showing
signs of alcohol poisoning.

578
00:28:58,238 --> 00:28:59,572
The coroner told me that's consistent

579
00:28:59,573 --> 00:29:01,010
with what he found at autopsy.

580
00:29:01,011 --> 00:29:02,922
Okay, so Jack Wilder drives Ripple home.

581
00:29:02,953 --> 00:29:05,823
Maybe Ripple passes out,
Wilder can't revive him,

582
00:29:05,855 --> 00:29:08,865
so he stages a suicide
rather than risk losing it all.

583
00:29:09,261 --> 00:29:10,360
There's only one problem.

584
00:29:10,361 --> 00:29:12,206
The evidence is circumstantial. All of it.

585
00:29:12,207 --> 00:29:14,192
I don't even think we have enough
for a search warrant.

586
00:29:14,587 --> 00:29:15,782
What kind of character witness

587
00:29:15,783 --> 00:29:17,364
do you think Lailah would make in court?

588
00:29:17,494 --> 00:29:19,655
She does feel loyalty for Wilder.

589
00:29:19,685 --> 00:29:21,294
I checked her employment history.

590
00:29:21,395 --> 00:29:24,497
She left a $70,000 job
at Sacramento General

591
00:29:24,498 --> 00:29:25,995
two months ago to work for him.

592
00:29:26,430 --> 00:29:28,811
On the other hand, both her parents
were alcoholic.

593
00:29:28,888 --> 00:29:31,382
I think that's where
her real sympathy lies.

594
00:29:31,412 --> 00:29:33,450
Parents were alcoholic?

595
00:29:35,132 --> 00:29:37,873
Her mom died in a car crash.

596
00:29:37,904 --> 00:29:39,086
She was drunk.

597
00:29:39,141 --> 00:29:40,612
Cirrhosis of the liver took her dad.

598
00:29:40,645 --> 00:29:42,663
Also alcohol-related.

599
00:29:42,830 --> 00:29:46,826
Chance has thrust our way
a very sordid and vexing problem.

600
00:29:48,659 --> 00:29:50,188
But have no fear.

601
00:29:51,258 --> 00:29:52,374
We don't.

602
00:29:52,375 --> 00:29:55,228
I do. What's your plan?

603
00:30:01,721 --> 00:30:03,955
Thank you for, uh, fitting me in.

604
00:30:04,359 --> 00:30:06,352
Our corporate retreat is in two days.

605
00:30:06,489 --> 00:30:08,363
That's why it's crucial to get started now.

606
00:30:09,562 --> 00:30:11,778
- You're sure you've had nothing
to eat today? - No, no, no.

607
00:30:11,779 --> 00:30:13,356
To stressed to eat.

608
00:30:13,807 --> 00:30:16,410
They say it's a rafting trip.
It's really just an excuse

609
00:30:16,411 --> 00:30:19,223
to drink like Germans for a weekend.

610
00:30:21,005 --> 00:30:23,699
I can't afford to slip. I'm up for C.E.O.

611
00:30:23,756 --> 00:30:26,526
Don't worry, Patrick.
All behavior is learned.

612
00:30:26,651 --> 00:30:28,163
And with my help, soon,

613
00:30:28,328 --> 00:30:30,891
your unwanted behavior will be unlearned.

614
00:30:31,295 --> 00:30:33,643
Now I want you to take this dial.
Mm-hmm.

615
00:30:33,676 --> 00:30:35,007
And select a level of current

616
00:30:35,052 --> 00:30:37,234
that's uncomfortable but not painful.

617
00:30:43,002 --> 00:30:44,199
Tickles.

618
00:30:44,446 --> 00:30:45,506
Ooh. Okay.

619
00:30:45,551 --> 00:30:46,726
Touchy.

620
00:30:46,903 --> 00:30:50,053
Tonight, we are gonna take the fun
out of drinking for you.

621
00:30:53,220 --> 00:30:55,725
Lailah, pour the man some whiskey.

622
00:30:59,859 --> 00:31:01,137
Bottoms up.

623
00:31:10,593 --> 00:31:12,158
Mm! Ooh. I felt that.

624
00:31:14,004 --> 00:31:15,373
I did feel that.

625
00:31:15,421 --> 00:31:18,921
Our goal is to associate alcohol
and all of its social rituals

626
00:31:18,953 --> 00:31:20,190
with the unpleasant sensation

627
00:31:20,191 --> 00:31:22,843
of electricity running through your body.

628
00:31:23,279 --> 00:31:24,661
Okay.

629
00:31:42,820 --> 00:31:44,068
Good, good.

630
00:31:44,123 --> 00:31:45,296
Taxi.

631
00:31:45,515 --> 00:31:46,987
How you feeling, Patrick?

632
00:31:47,144 --> 00:31:49,655
Well, Lailah, I'm probably
not going to remember much

633
00:31:49,656 --> 00:31:51,487
about tonight, so let's just take a moment

634
00:31:51,488 --> 00:31:54,061
to remember this moment forever together.

635
00:31:55,762 --> 00:31:58,183
You have brown eyes
and you're wearing earrings.

636
00:31:59,009 --> 00:32:02,143
I'll never forget that.
Time to raise the current.

637
00:32:02,239 --> 00:32:03,356
Really?

638
00:32:04,260 --> 00:32:06,680
These restraints will make sure
you don't accidentally

639
00:32:06,681 --> 00:32:08,352
dislodge your electrodes.

640
00:32:08,497 --> 00:32:11,778
We don't wanna dislodge any electrodes,
do we, doc?

641
00:32:12,369 --> 00:32:13,986
Ready for the next one?

642
00:32:14,470 --> 00:32:16,276
Uh... here's to sobriety.

643
00:32:30,689 --> 00:32:32,729
This is the last one.

644
00:32:33,548 --> 00:32:35,112
Are you okay?

645
00:32:35,546 --> 00:32:37,424
He's fine, Lailah.

646
00:32:37,812 --> 00:32:41,320
He's just a little tipsy.
This is the most important one.

647
00:32:41,498 --> 00:32:43,046
Please continue.

648
00:32:44,715 --> 00:32:46,828
Oh. Okay.

649
00:33:01,259 --> 00:33:03,653
I feel like... I can move.

650
00:33:04,572 --> 00:33:06,493
The air doesn't stop me.

651
00:33:09,963 --> 00:33:12,298
His eyes are pretty red. Yours are glazed.

652
00:33:12,299 --> 00:33:13,775
You been eating doughnuts?

653
00:33:14,504 --> 00:33:17,439
The patient's blood pressure is too low.
Something's wrong.

654
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:21,143
No, it's okay. You set me free
of all my pain.

655
00:33:21,485 --> 00:33:23,654
Irregular heartbeat. Skin's ice.
No, no, no.

656
00:33:23,655 --> 00:33:25,186
It's impossible. I calculated
his body weight.

657
00:33:25,187 --> 00:33:26,618
This man will go into cardiac arrest

658
00:33:26,619 --> 00:33:28,251
without emergency medical care.

659
00:33:28,278 --> 00:33:30,449
Go call 9-1-1. Go!

660
00:33:37,487 --> 00:33:39,316
I'll set you free.

661
00:33:39,781 --> 00:33:41,291
Forever.

662
00:33:52,296 --> 00:33:53,470
Gotcha.

663
00:33:53,944 --> 00:33:55,603
Whoa, little head spin there.

664
00:33:56,106 --> 00:33:58,668
You can't be conscious. Your vitals...

665
00:33:59,095 --> 00:34:00,973
Little biofeedback trick.

666
00:34:01,013 --> 00:34:03,008
Well, not so little when you're drunk.

667
00:34:04,661 --> 00:34:07,504
Cat's in the bag. Come on in.

668
00:34:07,505 --> 00:34:08,923
What are you talking about?

669
00:34:08,968 --> 00:34:10,303
I'm a cop.

670
00:34:10,361 --> 00:34:14,313
Well, cop-adjacent.
This place is surrounded.

671
00:34:19,078 --> 00:34:21,577
It's a complex little transmitter.

672
00:34:21,578 --> 00:34:25,212
Surveillance van out the front
full of people with large guns.

673
00:34:25,424 --> 00:34:27,191
You are in trouble.

674
00:34:31,101 --> 00:34:32,507
You're lying.

675
00:34:33,525 --> 00:34:36,436
Let me guess. 190-proof alcohol.

676
00:34:36,437 --> 00:34:38,699
Same gut-rot you shot into Ripple.

677
00:34:39,192 --> 00:34:41,631
The good doctor here thinks
you're an angel.

678
00:34:41,661 --> 00:34:43,234
I am an angel.

679
00:34:43,645 --> 00:34:45,701
Yeah. An angel of death.

680
00:34:47,281 --> 00:34:48,848
You know, I had a hunch

681
00:34:48,892 --> 00:34:51,417
soon as I found out about your pants.

682
00:34:52,817 --> 00:34:54,935
Pardon me. Your parents.

683
00:34:56,415 --> 00:34:57,875
You've experienced a lot of pain.

684
00:34:57,918 --> 00:35:01,251
Alcohol causes pain. Loneliness.

685
00:35:01,282 --> 00:35:04,558
It was you that overdosed Ripple.
It wasn't Wilder.

686
00:35:05,407 --> 00:35:06,622
He left and you went in.

687
00:35:06,623 --> 00:35:08,528
How did you get into Benjamin's apartment?

688
00:35:08,529 --> 00:35:09,880
When Benjamin was drunk,

689
00:35:09,881 --> 00:35:11,791
he mentioned where he kept his spare key.

690
00:35:13,603 --> 00:35:16,218
Poor thing was hurting so badly inside.

691
00:35:18,638 --> 00:35:21,779
Benjamin, wake up. It's important.
Hmm? Huh?

692
00:35:21,833 --> 00:35:23,502
Uh... there are children outside.

693
00:35:23,549 --> 00:35:25,290
Oh... they wanna see Santa.

694
00:35:25,322 --> 00:35:27,301
Oh, can't let the children down.

695
00:35:34,720 --> 00:35:36,229
Uhh. I'm not feeling so good.

696
00:35:36,277 --> 00:35:38,286
All you gotta do is wave at them.

697
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:40,489
You see 'em down there? No.

698
00:35:40,490 --> 00:35:42,226
Maybe if you lean a little further.

699
00:35:43,735 --> 00:35:45,118
Oh. You see 'em?

700
00:35:53,294 --> 00:35:55,042
Do you know the one part of the body

701
00:35:55,043 --> 00:35:58,330
that coroners rarely inspect
for needle marks?

702
00:36:02,085 --> 00:36:03,731
Inside the navel.

703
00:36:06,999 --> 00:36:09,691
Uh, cat's in the bag,
and the bag's almost in the river!

704
00:36:09,734 --> 00:36:11,726
If I end your suffering now,

705
00:36:12,248 --> 00:36:14,635
Jack will be blamed for both deaths.

706
00:36:15,207 --> 00:36:17,860
And let's face it,
Jack needs to be stopped.

707
00:36:17,964 --> 00:36:19,790
He's a little crazy.

708
00:36:22,374 --> 00:36:23,692
Drop the needle!

709
00:36:24,143 --> 00:36:25,655
Put it down! Now!

710
00:36:27,684 --> 00:36:29,600
I'm sorry. We didn't mean
to cut it this close.

711
00:36:29,601 --> 00:36:31,982
This place is a maze. Turn around.

712
00:36:33,809 --> 00:36:34,605
Are you all right?

713
00:36:34,646 --> 00:36:37,128
Oh, yeah. I'm fine. I'm still home.

714
00:36:38,001 --> 00:36:39,652
Would you take me drunk?

715
00:36:42,643 --> 00:36:44,993
Mr. LaRoche?
What's going on in here?

716
00:36:45,174 --> 00:36:48,377
I've come to question Jane
bout the murder of Todd Johnson.

717
00:36:48,422 --> 00:36:52,711
Unless he answers my questions,
his status as a CBI consultant

718
00:36:52,712 --> 00:36:54,597
will fall under immediate review.

719
00:36:54,723 --> 00:36:56,572
No more waiting, no more ducking.

720
00:36:56,602 --> 00:36:58,303
No, you don't. Not now. No.

721
00:36:58,714 --> 00:37:01,656
No, it's all right, Lisbon.
I got this one. I got him.

722
00:37:01,720 --> 00:37:04,047
Come on. Fire away.

723
00:37:06,370 --> 00:37:07,848
I got it. Okay.

724
00:37:22,415 --> 00:37:26,018
Agent Lisbon states that
before Todd Johnson was set on fire,

725
00:37:26,050 --> 00:37:30,270
he indicated to her that he had
a secret he wanted to tell you,

726
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,317
and you alone.

727
00:37:32,364 --> 00:37:34,163
We all have secrets.

728
00:37:35,134 --> 00:37:38,478
Most of them are quite unremarkable
once revealed.

729
00:37:41,251 --> 00:37:43,544
What's your secret, Mr. Laroosh?

730
00:37:44,405 --> 00:37:45,707
LaRoche.

731
00:37:46,110 --> 00:37:47,516
Pardon me.

732
00:37:48,135 --> 00:37:49,910
I have no secrets.

733
00:37:50,353 --> 00:37:51,664
None?

734
00:37:55,336 --> 00:38:00,739
You have a very keen, speculative mind.

735
00:38:01,072 --> 00:38:02,393
You flatter me.

736
00:38:05,113 --> 00:38:08,356
What do you think Johnson
wanted to tell you?

737
00:38:08,449 --> 00:38:11,339
What was his secret?
Your best guess.

738
00:38:11,383 --> 00:38:12,750
Best guess.

739
00:38:12,797 --> 00:38:14,587
Uh, same sad old story.

740
00:38:16,246 --> 00:38:18,361
Just wanted to explain himself.

741
00:38:19,831 --> 00:38:23,138
Wanted to show someone that he was human.

742
00:38:24,203 --> 00:38:29,265
He's just a lonely soul trying to get by
like you or me.

743
00:38:30,032 --> 00:38:31,982
Why did he have to tell you this?

744
00:38:32,013 --> 00:38:33,834
Because he's a cop killer...

745
00:38:33,983 --> 00:38:39,594
In a cop house, full of cop hens
and cop chickens.

746
00:38:40,390 --> 00:38:41,771
That's very amusing.

747
00:38:42,017 --> 00:38:43,792
And I'm not a cop.

748
00:38:44,514 --> 00:38:46,790
But you would be very surprised

749
00:38:46,791 --> 00:38:50,375
how unsympathetic policemen
can be... and women.

750
00:38:56,514 --> 00:38:57,140
Thank you.

751
00:38:57,141 --> 00:39:00,614
Oh, no. Thank you. It was fun.

752
00:39:01,088 --> 00:39:02,492
We'll be in touch.

753
00:39:04,899 --> 00:39:07,762
Oh, if you, uh... care to share

754
00:39:07,763 --> 00:39:09,730
any of the developments
on the case with me,

755
00:39:09,731 --> 00:39:12,090
then I won't tell anyone.

756
00:39:12,351 --> 00:39:13,916
Why would you wanna know?

757
00:39:13,947 --> 00:39:15,312
I love a mystery.

758
00:39:17,515 --> 00:39:19,281
It's one of my failings.

759
00:39:32,605 --> 00:39:33,642
Ah. Patrick?

760
00:39:34,589 --> 00:39:35,675
Ah, Virgil.

761
00:39:36,259 --> 00:39:38,536
Meet may. May, this is Virgil.

762
00:39:40,341 --> 00:39:41,924
Hello, may. Hi.

763
00:39:44,668 --> 00:39:48,233
Uh... oh, uh, um, a moment alone,
please, Jane?

764
00:39:48,350 --> 00:39:49,720
Mm. Will you excuse us?

765
00:39:49,763 --> 00:39:50,844
Sure.

766
00:39:52,809 --> 00:39:54,498
Excuse me. A little parched.

767
00:39:56,495 --> 00:39:57,838
Thank you for meeting me here.

768
00:39:58,614 --> 00:40:01,500
You look terrible.
What did you do last night?

769
00:40:01,501 --> 00:40:03,141
Ah, it's all a little gauzy.

770
00:40:03,142 --> 00:40:06,358
I hope you don't mind I brought may along.

771
00:40:06,444 --> 00:40:08,027
Uh, you know, what's her story?

772
00:40:08,088 --> 00:40:09,951
Oh, come on. Ask her yourself.

773
00:40:12,293 --> 00:40:15,298
Listen, I'd, uh...
I'd like to convey my gratitude.

774
00:40:15,344 --> 00:40:17,173
Easy, cowboy. You just met her.

775
00:40:17,305 --> 00:40:19,080
I'm not talking about that.

776
00:40:19,643 --> 00:40:21,985
What you said about that fish.

777
00:40:22,582 --> 00:40:26,087
You opened my eyes to some ugly truths
that I've been avoiding.

778
00:40:30,457 --> 00:40:33,712
LaRoche's suspect list, secured
through back channels

779
00:40:33,713 --> 00:40:35,448
and personal favors.

780
00:40:36,146 --> 00:40:38,614
LaRoche has no idea I have it..

781
00:40:42,321 --> 00:40:43,373
Thank you.

782
00:40:47,576 --> 00:40:48,849
You need anything else, let me know.

783
00:40:48,850 --> 00:40:51,672
I will. I have to go.
Uh, could you do me a favor?

784
00:40:51,825 --> 00:40:53,858
Could you extend my apologies to May?

785
00:40:53,889 --> 00:40:55,802
Perhaps you'll sit with her
and have some lunch?

786
00:40:55,849 --> 00:40:58,612
I can do that, I think.

787
00:41:01,352 --> 00:41:02,407
Any tips?

788
00:41:02,722 --> 00:41:05,941
Uh, yes. You might wanna
consider growing a beard.
