1
00:00:42,815 --> 00:00:45,433
(music stops)
2
00:00:45,485 --> 00:00:48,625
WOMAN: So, Kevin, tell us what
you want when you grow up.
3
00:00:48,626 --> 00:00:50,994
When I grow up,
this is what I want:
4
00:00:51,078 --> 00:00:53,046
I want to have so much money,
5
00:00:53,113 --> 00:00:55,715
I can't even fit it all
in my house.
6
00:00:55,783 --> 00:00:57,334
I want my own jet plane.
7
00:00:57,418 --> 00:00:58,752
I want a mansion.
8
00:00:58,803 --> 00:01:01,304
And I want, like, a whole bunch
9
00:01:01,389 --> 00:01:03,757
of really awesome things
to play with.
10
00:01:03,808 --> 00:01:06,409
(laughter, whooping)
11
00:01:08,813 --> 00:01:10,564
(cheering)
12
00:01:10,631 --> 00:01:12,816
WOMEN:
Happy birthday, Kevin!
13
00:01:12,900 --> 00:01:15,235
(cheering, whooping)
14
00:01:19,273 --> 00:01:20,574
Friends...
15
00:01:20,641 --> 00:01:22,442
they say the past is prologue,
16
00:01:22,493 --> 00:01:25,695
and who would have guessed
that that skinny kid would grow
17
00:01:25,780 --> 00:01:28,281
into the man standing
before you today?
18
00:01:28,332 --> 00:01:30,784
Yet beyond
the bank account and
19
00:01:30,835 --> 00:01:33,170
the billion-push-up body
and all of my other
20
00:01:33,254 --> 00:01:35,572
extracurricular achievements...
21
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,007
(crowd whooping, laughing)
22
00:01:37,091 --> 00:01:40,377
...inside, I'm still
that ten-year-old boy.
23
00:01:40,461 --> 00:01:41,595
(guests laughing)
24
00:01:41,662 --> 00:01:43,180
And really...
25
00:01:43,264 --> 00:01:44,881
aren't we all?
26
00:01:46,467 --> 00:01:48,167
Mind if I join the party?
27
00:01:48,219 --> 00:01:50,887
(champagne cork pops,
guests cheer)
28
00:01:55,643 --> 00:01:58,078
(screaming)
29
00:02:02,149 --> 00:02:03,783
(screams, gasps, murmuring)
30
00:02:04,952 --> 00:02:06,152
Oh, my God!
31
00:02:14,929 --> 00:02:18,448
Our battered birthday boy
is Kevin Fetzer.
32
00:02:18,516 --> 00:02:22,819
It was a private affair--
all the guests are his friends.
33
00:02:22,887 --> 00:02:26,139
Well, with a possible
exception or two.
34
00:02:26,190 --> 00:02:28,391
Foots this bill, a guy's
got to have some bucks.
35
00:02:28,476 --> 00:02:32,479
Yeah, he was an entrepreneur,
started a franchise
36
00:02:32,530 --> 00:02:35,148
called Joystick Jungle,
something like that.
37
00:02:36,850 --> 00:02:38,401
The king of drunken Donkey Kong.
38
00:02:38,486 --> 00:02:39,869
Joystick Jungle,
39
00:02:39,954 --> 00:02:43,406
it's a video arcade for
adults-- pinball, Pac-Man,
40
00:02:43,491 --> 00:02:45,375
pizza, lots and lots of booze.
41
00:02:45,459 --> 00:02:47,961
Letting intoxicated adults
act like little kids.
44
00:02:52,833 --> 00:02:55,051
perpetual adolescence,
right?
45
00:02:55,136 --> 00:02:57,721
Maybe that explains
the underwear.
46
00:02:57,805 --> 00:02:59,889
They're on backwards!
47
00:02:59,974 --> 00:03:01,975
Got dressed in a
hurry, or drunk?
48
00:03:02,042 --> 00:03:03,059
RUSSELL:
Or...
49
00:03:03,144 --> 00:03:04,377
killer put them on him.
50
00:03:04,428 --> 00:03:06,396
Wanted to turn
him into a...
51
00:03:06,464 --> 00:03:08,164
little boy.
52
00:03:08,232 --> 00:03:10,066
Specifically...
53
00:03:10,151 --> 00:03:11,568
an eight-year-old.
54
00:03:11,652 --> 00:03:13,353
Look at this.
55
00:03:13,404 --> 00:03:16,523
WILLOWS:
Gravitational blood drops
56
00:03:16,574 --> 00:03:19,643
where the other candles
have been deliberately removed.
57
00:03:19,710 --> 00:03:22,162
Candles, redressing.
58
00:03:22,229 --> 00:03:24,731
Killer took
some time.
59
00:03:24,782 --> 00:03:27,834
After he took his life.

When did you last see Kevin?
73
00:04:04,779 --> 00:04:06,113
Ten minutes before
the big reveal.
74
00:04:06,197 --> 00:04:07,614
Said he had to go
behind the curtain,
75
00:04:07,615 --> 00:04:08,665
light the candles.
76
00:04:08,733 --> 00:04:10,276
Anybody go back
there with him?
77
00:04:10,279 --> 00:04:12,614
No. Kev liked to handle
things himself.
78
00:04:13,237 --> 00:04:15,238
Little bit of a
control freak.
79
00:04:15,290 --> 00:04:17,207
Didn't like
surprises.
80
00:04:17,274 --> 00:04:19,042
ROBBINS:
Russell.
81
00:04:19,110 --> 00:04:20,327
Hey, Doc.
82
00:04:21,496 --> 00:04:23,113
When I heard "tycoon,"
83
00:04:23,164 --> 00:04:26,049
I was picturing
top hat and monocle,
84
00:04:26,117 --> 00:04:28,085
or at least pants.
85
00:04:28,136 --> 00:04:30,137
Obvious blunt-force trauma.
86
00:04:31,639 --> 00:04:34,558
Oh, he lost his
two front teeth.
87
00:04:34,625 --> 00:04:36,176
Not so cute at his age.
88
00:04:36,260 --> 00:04:39,012
Yeah, I couldn't find any teeth
around here, but judging by
89
00:04:39,097 --> 00:04:41,765
the medium-velocity
sprinkles on the cake,
90
00:04:41,816 --> 00:04:43,433
this is where the
beating took place.
91
00:04:43,484 --> 00:04:45,686
ROBBINS:
Something's stuck between
92
00:04:45,770 --> 00:04:48,071
the cuspid and incisor.
93
00:04:48,139 --> 00:04:49,239
Could be dinner.
94
00:04:54,645 --> 00:04:55,912
Huh.
95
00:04:57,448 --> 00:04:58,665
SANDERS:
Surveillance is pretty thin
96
00:04:58,750 --> 00:05:01,918
throughout the club,
no eyes in this area.
97
00:05:01,986 --> 00:05:03,036
The bouncer did say
98
00:05:03,121 --> 00:05:05,372
that there was one
ugly incident earlier.
99
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,591
Kevin got into it
with an uninvited guest,
100
00:05:07,658 --> 00:05:08,875
had him tossed out.
101
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,178
Anyone have a name for
this uninvited guest?
102
00:05:11,262 --> 00:05:14,097
Kevin called him "Dad."
103
00:05:14,165 --> 00:05:15,215
Oh.
104
00:05:15,299 --> 00:05:18,101
WILLOWS: Son gives
dad the heave-ho.
105
00:05:18,169 --> 00:05:23,774
Maybe dad comes back to remind
him who's the grownup.
106
00:05:25,777 --> 00:05:29,529
Sure, Doc, take the
awesome club scene,
107
00:05:29,614 --> 00:05:32,232
classic arcade games,
beautiful women...
108
00:05:32,316 --> 00:05:33,683
why would I be
interested in that?
109
00:05:33,735 --> 00:05:35,736
Are you whining? That's not
very Super Dave of you.
110
00:05:35,820 --> 00:05:36,970
SIDLE: Maybe we
should remember
111
00:05:37,038 --> 00:05:39,039
that some people have it worse.
- Yeah.
112
00:05:40,458 --> 00:05:42,492
Like this
poor John Doe.
113
00:05:48,416 --> 00:05:49,750
If there ever
was a candidate
114
00:05:49,834 --> 00:05:51,635
for stop, drop and roll.
115
00:05:51,702 --> 00:05:54,805
Jimmy, let's go.
We have work to do.
116
00:05:54,872 --> 00:05:56,390
He inhaled fumes at the scene.
117
00:05:56,474 --> 00:05:58,475
Mm.
118
00:05:58,542 --> 00:06:01,061
Okay, so what's this guy's deal?
119
00:06:01,145 --> 00:06:02,545
Officer drove up on
a fire blazing,
120
00:06:02,597 --> 00:06:05,015
open end of an alley,
found him.
121
00:06:05,066 --> 00:06:06,433
Burning tire
around the body
122
00:06:06,517 --> 00:06:08,485
probably slipped down
from his throat.
123
00:06:08,552 --> 00:06:09,736
Necklacing--
124
00:06:09,821 --> 00:06:11,571
South African thugs
125
00:06:11,656 --> 00:06:13,890
and cartels south
of the border both do this.
126
00:06:13,941 --> 00:06:15,742
It's sad the things that
the world can agree on.
127
00:06:15,827 --> 00:06:17,494
Not good seeing this in Vegas.
128
00:06:17,561 --> 00:06:19,663
Same principle as being
burned at the stake.
129
00:06:19,730 --> 00:06:22,416
(shouting)
130
00:06:22,500 --> 00:06:24,701
SIDLE:
Takes a while for the CO
131
00:06:24,752 --> 00:06:26,336
and the smoke inhalation
to kill you.
132
00:06:26,404 --> 00:06:28,138
Until then, hell on earth.
133
00:06:28,206 --> 00:06:29,706
Gang neighborhood,
134
00:06:29,774 --> 00:06:31,425
Snakebacks versus La Tijeras.
135
00:06:31,509 --> 00:06:33,910
Ah, let me guess--
no witnesses.
136
00:06:33,961 --> 00:06:36,379
Didn't hear the screaming,
didn't even smell the bonfire.
137
00:06:37,682 --> 00:06:38,932
These tires are
two different treads.
138
00:06:39,016 --> 00:06:40,583
They're probably
from a junkyard.
139
00:06:40,635 --> 00:06:41,768
They're not gonna
give us anything.
140
00:06:41,853 --> 00:06:43,136
SIDE:
Hope of any trace
141
00:06:43,221 --> 00:06:45,972
or prints from the outside
of the tires is up in smoke.
142
00:06:46,057 --> 00:06:47,357
Well...
143
00:06:47,424 --> 00:06:49,726
let's try to get
an I.D. on this guy.
144
00:06:49,777 --> 00:06:50,944
I say...
145
00:06:51,028 --> 00:06:53,196
we strip the Michelin
from the man.
146
00:06:55,399 --> 00:06:57,734
Well, one C.O.D.--
147
00:06:57,785 --> 00:07:00,153
Cause Of De-pantsing,--
is still a mystery.
148
00:07:00,238 --> 00:07:01,988
No evidence of
sexual activity.
149
00:07:02,073 --> 00:07:02,989
Mm.
150
00:07:03,074 --> 00:07:04,440
So the pants
around his ankles
151
00:07:04,492 --> 00:07:06,126
was more message
than make-out.
152
00:07:07,128 --> 00:07:08,712
And the other C.O.D.?
153
00:07:08,779 --> 00:07:11,214
Asphyxiation via fatal vanity.
154
00:07:11,282 --> 00:07:15,252
His two front porcelain veneers
were broken and inhaled.
155
00:07:16,704 --> 00:07:18,138
(screams)
156
00:07:18,206 --> 00:07:21,141
ROBBINS: Lacerated the bronchi,
caused a bronchial spasm.
157
00:07:21,225 --> 00:07:24,177
Teeth weren't
the only body-mods.
158
00:07:24,262 --> 00:07:26,730
Pec implants,
hair plugs.
159
00:07:26,797 --> 00:07:29,132
Geek makes money,
remakes himself.
160
00:07:29,183 --> 00:07:31,184
You take your new
pride and joy for a spin,
161
00:07:31,269 --> 00:07:33,236
inevitably somebody
dings it up.
162
00:07:36,357 --> 00:07:40,110
Weapon was a round implement,
roughly spherical.
163
00:07:40,161 --> 00:07:42,329
Didn't find anything
like that at the scene.
164
00:07:42,413 --> 00:07:44,981
Booze flowing, games blasting,
plenty of opportunity
165
00:07:45,032 --> 00:07:47,033
for the killer to sneak
out with a weapon.
166
00:07:47,118 --> 00:07:48,869
You throw a good enough party,
people think they can
167
00:07:48,953 --> 00:07:50,420
get away with anything.
168
00:07:50,487 --> 00:07:52,706
MAN (on voicemail): Who do you
think you are, Kevin?
169
00:07:52,790 --> 00:07:55,675
Think tossing me from your party
makes you a man?
170
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,545
You're a weak
and scared little boy!
171
00:08:00,848 --> 00:08:03,099
Not exactly a Hallmark greeting.
172
00:08:04,552 --> 00:08:07,270
But then you're not exactly
a father, are you, Rick?
173
00:08:07,338 --> 00:08:09,272
Abandoned him
when he was ten,
174
00:08:09,340 --> 00:08:11,391
didn't pay a dime
in child support,
175
00:08:11,475 --> 00:08:14,027
son of a deadbeat,
beat dead.
176
00:08:14,111 --> 00:08:15,695
You think I had something
to do with that?
177
00:08:15,780 --> 00:08:17,447
Well, I think that's
a lot of rage to show
178
00:08:17,514 --> 00:08:19,015
a half an hour
before he was killed.
179
00:08:19,066 --> 00:08:21,184
And I think a trucker
with a repo'd rig
180
00:08:21,235 --> 00:08:22,619
has got nothing to haul
181
00:08:22,686 --> 00:08:25,238
but a greedy grudge
against his millionaire son.
182
00:08:25,323 --> 00:08:27,457
You crash the party,
you hit him up,
183
00:08:27,524 --> 00:08:30,193
he shoots you down,
so you really hit him up.
184
00:08:30,244 --> 00:08:32,629
And then you leave
him a reminder--
185
00:08:32,696 --> 00:08:35,048
don't get too big
for your britches.
186
00:08:43,507 --> 00:08:46,927
There was something wrong with
him, even when he was little.
187
00:08:47,011 --> 00:08:49,012
Sick and twisted
little something.
188
00:08:49,063 --> 00:08:50,430
The way he'd look at people.
189
00:08:50,514 --> 00:08:52,649
As he got older,
190
00:08:52,716 --> 00:08:54,067
made you not want
to be around him.
191
00:08:55,719 --> 00:08:57,988
So I'm not surprised someone
would see fit to...
192
00:08:58,055 --> 00:09:00,323
beat the hell out of him.
193
00:09:00,391 --> 00:09:01,608
Just wasn't me.
194
00:09:01,692 --> 00:09:05,996
Well, you got an alibi or
just your sunshiny attitude?
195
00:09:06,063 --> 00:09:08,782
Soon as he made clear
I wasn't getting paid,
196
00:09:08,866 --> 00:09:11,501
I left that party.
197
00:09:11,568 --> 00:09:13,920
Check the cameras at that
casino next to the club.
198
00:09:14,005 --> 00:09:17,157
I had better luck
yanking those levers.
199
00:09:17,225 --> 00:09:20,760
Spun a jackpot, won enough
to get my truck back.
200
00:09:22,296 --> 00:09:23,463
(sighs)
201
00:09:23,547 --> 00:09:26,182
Happy birthday to me.
202
00:09:30,137 --> 00:09:33,890
Unless your birthday vic
was part beaver...
203
00:09:33,941 --> 00:09:36,092
the weapon was wooden.
204
00:09:36,143 --> 00:09:39,863
WILLOWS: Trace from his teeth
is varnished oak.
205
00:09:39,930 --> 00:09:41,448
Baseball bat?
206
00:09:41,532 --> 00:09:42,565
Hmm, well...
207
00:09:42,617 --> 00:09:45,068
the wounds are spherical,
not cylindrical.
208
00:09:45,119 --> 00:09:46,786
Rough extrapolation
209
00:09:46,871 --> 00:09:50,373
of the curvature, we're looking
at something with a diameter
210
00:09:50,441 --> 00:09:52,108
of four to five inches?
211
00:09:54,078 --> 00:09:55,128
Wooden ball.
212
00:09:56,247 --> 00:09:57,664
Arcade tycoon, right?
213
00:09:57,748 --> 00:10:00,283
- Yeah.
- Ah...
214
00:10:02,286 --> 00:10:03,720
Arcade Bowl Ball.
215
00:10:03,787 --> 00:10:05,121
Excuse me?
216
00:10:05,172 --> 00:10:07,340
From the classic game
of luck and skill
217
00:10:07,425 --> 00:10:10,010
beloved by children
of all ages-- my guess,
218
00:10:10,077 --> 00:10:12,679
that's what bashed your vic's
face into a bloody pulp.
219
00:10:12,763 --> 00:10:16,066
WILLOWS: Arcade Bowl is not
one of the games at the club,
220
00:10:16,133 --> 00:10:17,651
so the killer would have
had to bring the ball in.
221
00:10:17,735 --> 00:10:19,903
Making the weapon of choice
significant, no?
222
00:10:19,970 --> 00:10:22,138
Disgruntled arcade employee.
223
00:10:22,189 --> 00:10:23,523
That's a good place to start.
224
00:10:23,607 --> 00:10:25,759
RUSSELL:
Hey, how did swab-a-palooza go?
225
00:10:25,826 --> 00:10:27,944
Uh, 200 party guests,
all swabbed, printed
226
00:10:27,995 --> 00:10:29,779
and checked for spatter,
all clean.
227
00:10:29,830 --> 00:10:32,248
Well, maybe you'll have more
luck at your next case.
228
00:10:32,316 --> 00:10:33,533
I want you to
restock your kit,
229
00:10:33,617 --> 00:10:36,119
and go meet Morgan
at the Park Motel.
230
00:10:38,039 --> 00:10:41,841
It's a scene, not a date,
you wacky kid, you.
231
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,796
Hey, I heard you're looking
for unhappy arcade clerks
232
00:10:46,847 --> 00:10:48,348
who might have played
Whack-A-Boss.
233
00:10:48,432 --> 00:10:50,266
I didn't find any.
234
00:10:50,334 --> 00:10:52,502
And Fetzer's franchises
don't carry Arcade Bowl.
235
00:10:52,553 --> 00:10:54,670
But the weapon is so unusual
236
00:10:54,722 --> 00:10:56,556
that I searched online
for any connection
237
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:57,857
between Kevin Fetzer
and the game.
238
00:10:57,942 --> 00:10:58,975
Check this out.
239
00:11:01,228 --> 00:11:03,446
In 1991,
240
00:11:03,514 --> 00:11:04,864
an eight-year-old boy
241
00:11:04,949 --> 00:11:06,533
named Mikey Moran
was celebrating his birthday
242
00:11:06,617 --> 00:11:08,034
at an arcade.
243
00:11:08,102 --> 00:11:09,486
He goes missing.
244
00:11:09,537 --> 00:11:10,954
His body is found
behind the place.
245
00:11:11,021 --> 00:11:12,822
His pants are off;
he's been beaten to death.
246
00:11:12,873 --> 00:11:16,710
The weapon, a bloody arcade
ball, is lying next to him.
247
00:11:16,794 --> 00:11:18,361
Unbelievable.
248
00:11:18,412 --> 00:11:21,614
RUSSELL: "Arcade worker
Kevin Fetzer, age 15,
249
00:11:21,682 --> 00:11:23,032
"said it was a day
250
00:11:23,084 --> 00:11:25,385
that nobody in the arcade
would ever forget."
251
00:11:25,469 --> 00:11:27,337
And guess what acne-faced
future millionaire
252
00:11:27,388 --> 00:11:28,972
was questioned
as a person of interest?
253
00:11:29,039 --> 00:11:30,590
Kevin Fetzer.
254
00:11:30,674 --> 00:11:33,510
Yeah.
I pulled the case file.
255
00:11:33,561 --> 00:11:35,595
There was never an arrest
made for the boy's murder.
256
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:40,383
Somebody turned Kevin's birthday
into his judgment day.
257
00:11:45,895 --> 00:11:47,313
(woman screaming)
258
00:11:47,380 --> 00:11:50,516
BRODY: Motel guest heard a
disturbance, phoned it in,
259
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,634
officers responded
and found her.
260
00:11:52,686 --> 00:11:54,136
Her name's Darlene Crocker.
261
00:11:54,187 --> 00:11:56,471
Motel manager said she's been
staying here a few weeks.
262
00:11:56,523 --> 00:11:57,885
- Alone?
- Not really.
263
00:11:57,910 --> 00:11:59,585
She's been known to have various
male guests...
264
00:11:59,610 --> 00:12:00,810
For an hour at a time.
265
00:12:02,112 --> 00:12:03,112
But witnesses said
266
00:12:03,163 --> 00:12:05,331
nobody left during
or after the attack.
267
00:12:05,415 --> 00:12:06,615
Snuck out a window...?
268
00:12:06,666 --> 00:12:09,335
Huh-- no getting
through those bars.
269
00:12:09,419 --> 00:12:10,753
Bathroom windows
would be tight,
270
00:12:10,820 --> 00:12:12,671
even for a lightweight,
271
00:12:12,756 --> 00:12:15,090
and this damage
is Ali-Foreman.
272
00:12:20,547 --> 00:12:22,131
Some sort of crystals--
273
00:12:22,182 --> 00:12:23,832
Cocaine?
274
00:12:23,883 --> 00:12:25,551
Maybe meth?
275
00:12:26,669 --> 00:12:29,438
Got a little powder
near her mouth.
276
00:12:29,505 --> 00:12:34,176
I don't think
it's drug trace.
277
00:12:34,227 --> 00:12:39,848
So... she's using with
some lucky man of the hour.
278
00:12:39,899 --> 00:12:42,284
Somehow, session
goes sideways.
279
00:12:42,351 --> 00:12:43,502
And what, he just
kills her
280
00:12:43,570 --> 00:12:46,488
and leaves without
anybody noticing?
281
00:12:46,539 --> 00:12:51,160
These punctures have
irregular jagged edges.
282
00:12:51,211 --> 00:12:53,328
That's inconsistent with
a single, sharp blade.
283
00:12:55,632 --> 00:12:56,749
Messy stabbing...
284
00:12:56,833 --> 00:13:00,419
messy scene...
285
00:13:00,503 --> 00:13:01,920
clean getaway.
286
00:13:02,005 --> 00:13:04,339
Like the killer just vanished.
287
00:13:07,343 --> 00:13:09,395
Bloody Mary.
288
00:13:09,479 --> 00:13:11,764
Well, yeah, there's an empty
bottle of vodka on the bed.
289
00:13:11,848 --> 00:13:13,315
No, not the drink,
290
00:13:13,382 --> 00:13:15,116
the ghost.
291
00:13:16,581 --> 00:13:18,094
You stand in front of a mirror,
292
00:13:18,150 --> 00:13:19,350
lights out,
293
00:13:19,815 --> 00:13:21,494
you say your name three times.
294
00:13:23,393 --> 00:13:25,048
And she bursts through
the glass and kills you.
295
00:13:26,449 --> 00:13:27,749
Are we at a crime scene, or
296
00:13:27,765 --> 00:13:29,099
a seventh-grade sleepover?
297
00:13:39,817 --> 00:13:40,850
(sighs)
298
00:13:41,247 --> 00:13:43,665
Just a theory.
299
00:13:45,951 --> 00:13:51,339
Someone beat Kevin Fetzer's
face in with an arcade ball.
300
00:13:51,424 --> 00:13:52,674
There's some justice in that.
301
00:13:52,758 --> 00:13:54,792
I've got the case file
302
00:13:54,844 --> 00:13:56,428
from the original
arcade ball murder--
303
00:13:56,479 --> 00:13:58,513
Mikey Moran-- just
to jog your memory.
304
00:13:58,597 --> 00:14:01,066
Yeah, that was one of the
first murders I ever worked.
305
00:14:01,133 --> 00:14:05,520
A scene like that, your memory
gets plenty of miles on its own.
306
00:14:08,190 --> 00:14:09,924
We found the body
behind the arcade.
307
00:14:09,992 --> 00:14:11,242
The weapon was right there.
308
00:14:12,628 --> 00:14:14,796
And for my money,
so was the killer.
309
00:14:16,615 --> 00:14:18,450
That Fetzer kid
struck me strange
310
00:14:18,501 --> 00:14:19,701
the instant I saw him.
311
00:14:19,785 --> 00:14:22,087
He's hanging around
the scene, and then
312
00:14:22,154 --> 00:14:23,321
he leaves for an hour,
313
00:14:23,372 --> 00:14:25,290
and comes back carrying
two little shoes.
314
00:14:25,341 --> 00:14:27,258
Ugh. Mikey's?
315
00:14:27,326 --> 00:14:29,344
He said that he found them
ditched a half block away.
316
00:14:29,428 --> 00:14:31,546
He just happened
to be looking over there.
317
00:14:31,630 --> 00:14:33,047
But there was no
physical evidence found
318
00:14:33,132 --> 00:14:35,133
that connected
Kevin Fetzer to the crime.
319
00:14:35,184 --> 00:14:36,718
Well, we did
find a pubic hair
320
00:14:36,802 --> 00:14:38,169
on the little boy--
blond, like Fetzer--
321
00:14:38,220 --> 00:14:41,890
but DNA testing was new,
and we didn't get a result.
322
00:14:41,974 --> 00:14:45,477
And it wasn't re-tested
with improved technology?
323
00:14:45,528 --> 00:14:48,446
The, uh, sample was consumed
on the first test and...
324
00:14:48,514 --> 00:14:49,647
that was my call.
325
00:14:49,698 --> 00:14:51,516
I was new on the job.
326
00:14:51,567 --> 00:14:53,151
I went all in,
and I crapped out.
327
00:14:53,202 --> 00:14:55,787
That was the first time that I
learned that the job isn't fair.
328
00:14:55,854 --> 00:14:57,122
You know, you could
have the killer standing
329
00:14:57,189 --> 00:15:00,875
right in front of you,
know that he did it and...
330
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,711
you know, it feels like the
cuffs are on your own wrists.
331
00:15:03,796 --> 00:15:06,498
We've all been there, Lou.
332
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,553
So, do you have any suspects
on Kevin Fetzer's murder?
333
00:15:11,637 --> 00:15:13,805
No. Brass talked
to Fetzer's dad,
334
00:15:13,872 --> 00:15:15,206
who had an alibi.
335
00:15:15,257 --> 00:15:17,475
We got him on casino
surveillance.
336
00:15:17,543 --> 00:15:20,061
He should be talking
to Mikey Moran's family.
337
00:15:20,146 --> 00:15:22,063
After what Fetzer did
to that little boy,
338
00:15:22,148 --> 00:15:26,217
if that were my kid,
I wouldn't have waited 20 years.
339
00:15:36,862 --> 00:15:38,896
SIDLE: Considering where
and how we found him,
340
00:15:38,948 --> 00:15:41,783
we figured our John Doe
was a Snakeback or a La Tijera.
341
00:15:41,867 --> 00:15:44,902
There was nothing
to help get more specific,
342
00:15:44,954 --> 00:15:46,371
except his arms pinned
to his sides
343
00:15:46,422 --> 00:15:49,457
left small portions
of unburnt flesh
344
00:15:49,542 --> 00:15:51,125
and an old battle wound.
345
00:15:53,929 --> 00:15:55,263
SIDLE: I've been searching
for similar scars
346
00:15:55,331 --> 00:15:56,464
in the gang database.
347
00:15:56,549 --> 00:15:58,550
Our burning man is a La Tijera
348
00:15:58,601 --> 00:16:00,518
named Ramon Castillo,
street name Espectro.
349
00:16:00,586 --> 00:16:01,803
Yeah, it means "Ghost."
350
00:16:01,887 --> 00:16:04,455
VEGA: Big baller with
La Tijeras some years back.
351
00:16:04,523 --> 00:16:06,808
Made my early days in the
gang task force a real joy.
352
00:16:06,892 --> 00:16:08,526
Earned you some overtime,
353
00:16:08,594 --> 00:16:09,694
did he, Sam?
354
00:16:09,761 --> 00:16:11,563
Yeah, he and a Snakeback
rival, Diego Barra,
355
00:16:11,614 --> 00:16:13,648
they were a regular
Itchy and Scratchy.
356
00:16:13,732 --> 00:16:15,066
Shots traded
back and forth,
357
00:16:15,134 --> 00:16:16,234
killing each other's
friends.
358
00:16:16,285 --> 00:16:18,036
- Barra's still on the street?
- No.
359
00:16:18,103 --> 00:16:20,238
Been locked up for
almost a decade now.
360
00:16:20,289 --> 00:16:21,873
He could have ordered
the hit from inside, no?
361
00:16:21,940 --> 00:16:23,074
Let's put him on a bus
362
00:16:23,125 --> 00:16:25,627
and bring his ass down
here and talk to him.
363
00:16:25,711 --> 00:16:27,295
How's your Spanish
these days?
364
00:16:27,379 --> 00:16:28,296
No bueno.
365
00:16:28,380 --> 00:16:29,581
But you can help me
out there, bud.
366
00:16:29,632 --> 00:16:31,382
Tu? Nunca.
367
00:16:31,450 --> 00:16:32,450
Vamos.
368
00:16:36,788 --> 00:16:38,389
Your motel vic's
organs are pale
369
00:16:38,457 --> 00:16:40,625
as a result of
exsanguination
370
00:16:40,676 --> 00:16:43,228
due to severing of the
carotid jugular complex.
371
00:16:43,295 --> 00:16:44,679
STOKES:
Her throat was slashed.
372
00:16:44,763 --> 00:16:46,314
Someone did a number on her.
373
00:16:46,398 --> 00:16:47,649
Hello.
374
00:16:47,733 --> 00:16:49,800
Maybe Darlene Crocker
looked her killer in the eye
375
00:16:49,852 --> 00:16:52,520
and didn't like what she saw.
376
00:16:52,605 --> 00:16:54,522
Weapon was a shard
of broken mirror.
377
00:16:54,607 --> 00:16:55,990
Hers were the only
prints on it.
378
00:16:56,075 --> 00:16:58,192
No one was seen leaving
the motel room,
379
00:16:58,277 --> 00:17:00,028
so we're thinking
she killed herself.
380
00:17:00,112 --> 00:17:02,964
(screaming)
381
00:17:04,166 --> 00:17:06,084
Brutality like this
is unusual.
382
00:17:07,086 --> 00:17:08,870
Suicide is resignation.
383
00:17:08,954 --> 00:17:10,488
These wounds are rage.
384
00:17:13,742 --> 00:17:15,510
(inhales)
385
00:17:15,594 --> 00:17:17,712
Did you and Morgan find
any drugs at the scene?
386
00:17:17,796 --> 00:17:20,048
Uh, just some kind
of crystal trace.
387
00:17:20,132 --> 00:17:21,266
Smell this.
388
00:17:22,834 --> 00:17:24,852
Ugh! Room service in Hell
doesn't smell that bad.
389
00:17:24,937 --> 00:17:26,220
What is it?
390
00:17:26,305 --> 00:17:28,306
A distinct ether-like odor.
391
00:17:28,357 --> 00:17:29,457
Pretty rare these days.
392
00:17:29,525 --> 00:17:30,692
PCP.
393
00:17:30,776 --> 00:17:32,110
Oh, bad trip.
394
00:17:32,177 --> 00:17:34,145
That would explain
the self-mutilation.
395
00:17:35,547 --> 00:17:37,148
(trembling laughter)
396
00:17:37,216 --> 00:17:38,733
Hallucinatory state.
397
00:17:38,817 --> 00:17:42,036
She thinks she's fighting off
untold dark forces.
398
00:17:43,689 --> 00:17:46,407
(eerie laughter)
399
00:17:50,379 --> 00:17:52,447
ROBBINS:
Not self-destruction...
400
00:17:52,514 --> 00:17:55,333
in her mind, self-defense.
401
00:17:55,384 --> 00:17:56,884
Well, Henry's
running tox right now.
402
00:17:56,969 --> 00:18:00,338
If it is PCP, we'll
get confirmation.
403
00:18:00,389 --> 00:18:01,889
Detective Vega.
404
00:18:01,974 --> 00:18:03,558
I know you.
405
00:18:03,642 --> 00:18:05,760
You put me in the joint
and never come to visit.
406
00:18:08,564 --> 00:18:10,565
I was waiting
for a special occasion,
407
00:18:10,649 --> 00:18:13,217
like the day they'd
flip the switch.
408
00:18:13,268 --> 00:18:14,736
(laughs)
409
00:18:14,820 --> 00:18:19,407
You must be confusing me with
some other innocent vato.
410
00:18:19,491 --> 00:18:21,326
I'm only doing 25 to life.
411
00:18:21,393 --> 00:18:23,528
Not if you had anything
to do with killing Espectro.
412
00:18:26,665 --> 00:18:27,398
Serious?
413
00:18:27,449 --> 00:18:29,934
Damn right I'm serious.
414
00:18:30,002 --> 00:18:31,202
Someone ghosted him for real?
415
00:18:31,253 --> 00:18:33,705
I'm shocked you didn't know.
416
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,959
You best believe
I wanted to kill him.
417
00:18:40,412 --> 00:18:41,713
But the punk
vanished underground
418
00:18:41,764 --> 00:18:43,748
before I had a chance
to stick him there.
419
00:18:45,417 --> 00:18:48,753
So whoever took him out,
how'd they do it?
420
00:18:50,756 --> 00:18:52,473
Must have been a lucky shot,
421
00:18:52,558 --> 00:18:55,309
because there was no getting
close to Espectro.
422
00:18:57,613 --> 00:18:59,313
That wasn't luck.
423
00:19:09,291 --> 00:19:10,742
(whispering):
Marta.
424
00:19:10,809 --> 00:19:12,460
Marta?
425
00:19:12,544 --> 00:19:14,579
Who-Who's Marta?
426
00:19:16,382 --> 00:19:18,883
No man did that.
427
00:19:18,950 --> 00:19:21,335
For a sinner like Espectro,
428
00:19:21,420 --> 00:19:24,055
there's forces in the universe
more powerful than man.
429
00:19:44,777 --> 00:19:46,244
STOKES:
Marta Arterro,
430
00:19:46,311 --> 00:19:48,780
Diego Barra's girlfriend
from back in '02.
431
00:19:48,847 --> 00:19:51,999
Now, the hood grapevine
says that Espectro
432
00:19:52,084 --> 00:19:53,951
was the one who set her ablaze.
433
00:19:54,002 --> 00:19:55,336
And now somebody
kills Espectro
434
00:19:55,421 --> 00:19:57,455
in the same fiery manner.
435
00:19:57,506 --> 00:19:59,040
Nine years later?
436
00:19:59,124 --> 00:20:01,175
That's some serious
felony procrastination.
437
00:20:01,260 --> 00:20:03,511
Well, it's 11 years
quicker than it took
438
00:20:03,595 --> 00:20:06,714
Kevin Fetzer to catch
his retribution.
439
00:20:06,799 --> 00:20:08,015
RUSSELL:
Okay...
440
00:20:08,100 --> 00:20:11,052
Two crimes...
441
00:20:11,136 --> 00:20:13,020
Both blasts from the past.
442
00:20:13,105 --> 00:20:15,773
Do we think there's
a connection?
443
00:20:17,443 --> 00:20:19,794
HODGES: Crime scene photo
doesn't do the trace justice.
444
00:20:19,862 --> 00:20:21,279
BRODY:
You're right.
445
00:20:21,346 --> 00:20:22,847
It's lovely.
446
00:20:22,898 --> 00:20:25,483
What the heck is it?
447
00:20:25,534 --> 00:20:28,486
The trace you got from your
motel vic's face is pollen.
448
00:20:28,537 --> 00:20:29,854
From the flame lily.
449
00:20:29,905 --> 00:20:33,207
The particles, not
unlike one David Hodges,
450
00:20:33,292 --> 00:20:37,027
exhibit a highly-sculptured
outer shell.
451
00:20:37,079 --> 00:20:39,046
Helps them cling
to passing bodies
452
00:20:39,131 --> 00:20:40,998
in desperate hopes
of propagation.
453
00:20:42,968 --> 00:20:46,420
There were no flowers
in the motel room.
454
00:20:46,505 --> 00:20:48,506
And we didn't see
anything outside.
455
00:20:48,557 --> 00:20:51,175
Possible pollen transfer
from the killer.
456
00:20:51,226 --> 00:20:53,644
Morgan, I got
those results.
457
00:20:55,547 --> 00:20:56,881
Thanks for the flowers...
458
00:20:57,883 --> 00:20:59,267
...but I got a date with Henry.
459
00:21:04,656 --> 00:21:06,524
Doc Robbins' nose
knows drugs.
460
00:21:06,575 --> 00:21:08,142
Motel vic's
tox panel showed
461
00:21:08,210 --> 00:21:10,862
a lethal level of PCP
in her system.
462
00:21:10,913 --> 00:21:12,079
Angel dust?!
463
00:21:12,164 --> 00:21:13,948
Thought that stuff
went out in the early '90s.
464
00:21:14,032 --> 00:21:15,082
Well, you're right.
465
00:21:15,167 --> 00:21:17,034
And the sample she
ingested appears to be
466
00:21:17,085 --> 00:21:19,370
from a vintage
batch of the drug.
467
00:21:19,421 --> 00:21:21,255
See, there's a trace
of a component,
468
00:21:21,340 --> 00:21:23,991
PCC, in her blood--
it was a compound used
469
00:21:24,059 --> 00:21:26,794
to manufacture PCP
until the early '90s
470
00:21:26,879 --> 00:21:29,514
when PCC became
heavily controlled.
471
00:21:29,581 --> 00:21:31,599
Nobody uses that recipe anymore.
472
00:21:31,683 --> 00:21:34,635
Why would somebody hold on
to an old dose of PCP?
473
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:39,056
With age, it acquires delicious
notes of a woodsy vanilla.
474
00:21:40,192 --> 00:21:43,060
No, it stays the same toxic,
475
00:21:43,111 --> 00:21:44,645
stinking
nightmare fuel
476
00:21:44,730 --> 00:21:45,863
it started as.
477
00:21:45,931 --> 00:21:47,782
- Doesn't make any sense.
- Hm.
478
00:21:47,866 --> 00:21:49,183
Holed up in
that hotel room,
479
00:21:49,251 --> 00:21:51,736
dosed with a blast
from the past.
480
00:21:51,787 --> 00:21:54,522
Did you just say
"blast from the past"?
481
00:21:54,590 --> 00:21:57,992
Our motel room vic,
Darlene Crocker,
482
00:21:58,076 --> 00:22:01,078
ingested a lethal load
of vintage formula PCP.
483
00:22:01,129 --> 00:22:03,664
Okay, Henry, check out
484
00:22:03,749 --> 00:22:06,534
the LIMS database to see if
Darlene Crocker has any prior
485
00:22:06,602 --> 00:22:09,220
criminal record or
any connection to old crimes.
486
00:22:09,287 --> 00:22:10,788
Doesn't have
to be recent.
487
00:22:13,175 --> 00:22:15,793
Today,
the past is present.
488
00:22:18,430 --> 00:22:20,348
Whoa.
489
00:22:23,318 --> 00:22:26,237
Happened again...
again.
490
00:22:26,304 --> 00:22:27,738
Morgan and Greg's case.
491
00:22:27,806 --> 00:22:29,690
A Darlene Crocker.
492
00:22:29,775 --> 00:22:33,411
1989, her 12-and-a-half-
year-old daughter Chelsea
493
00:22:33,478 --> 00:22:36,097
died a pretty
gruesome death on PCP,
494
00:22:36,164 --> 00:22:38,532
just like her mother did today.
495
00:22:38,617 --> 00:22:41,502
(groans) A little girl
with that kind of drug?
496
00:22:41,587 --> 00:22:42,920
Junkie older brother,
Ken Crocker,
497
00:22:42,988 --> 00:22:45,873
confessed to having fed it
to her and then got sent away.
498
00:22:45,958 --> 00:22:48,329
22 years later, Mom
self-destructs on the same drug?
499
00:22:48,354 --> 00:22:49,126
Yeah.
500
00:22:49,127 --> 00:22:51,178
See, I'm not so sure
that she just happened
501
00:22:51,263 --> 00:22:53,264
to choose today
to take that dose.
502
00:22:53,331 --> 00:22:55,633
Somebody forced her
to take it-- murder.
503
00:22:55,684 --> 00:22:57,602
Just like the burning tires
and the arcade ball.
504
00:22:57,669 --> 00:23:00,271
Death by deja vu.
505
00:23:04,905 --> 00:23:08,027
RUSSELL: Tonight, you will
be visited by the spirits
506
00:23:08,028 --> 00:23:10,279
of three old cases...
507
00:23:10,363 --> 00:23:13,832
Uh, sorry, I haven't
had much sleep lately.
508
00:23:13,900 --> 00:23:16,635
The question is,
why these three cases,
509
00:23:16,703 --> 00:23:18,003
and why now?
510
00:23:18,071 --> 00:23:19,237
And who's this
511
00:23:19,289 --> 00:23:22,624
mysterious Jacob Marley
summoning their spirits?
512
00:23:22,709 --> 00:23:24,593
There's no obvious
connections,
513
00:23:24,678 --> 00:23:26,345
and there's years
between the murders.
514
00:23:26,412 --> 00:23:28,180
It's three different
areas of Vegas,
515
00:23:28,247 --> 00:23:30,599
tire-fire Marta
in a Northside hood,
516
00:23:30,684 --> 00:23:32,935
PCP Chelsea
in a trailer park,
517
00:23:33,019 --> 00:23:34,753
and Birthday Mikey
in the burbs.
518
00:23:34,804 --> 00:23:36,254
Two child vics, one adult.
519
00:23:36,306 --> 00:23:37,439
SIDLE:
One big difference.
520
00:23:37,524 --> 00:23:38,474
Espectro and Fetzer
521
00:23:38,558 --> 00:23:39,608
both escaped justice,
522
00:23:39,693 --> 00:23:41,259
at least
the first time around,
523
00:23:41,311 --> 00:23:42,945
but the Crocker case was solved.
524
00:23:43,029 --> 00:23:44,196
Brother was convicted.
525
00:23:44,263 --> 00:23:46,765
So why's Darlene
paying for that now?
526
00:23:46,816 --> 00:23:49,935
Maybe someone thinks the wrong
person paid for it back then.
527
00:23:49,986 --> 00:23:52,371
Yeah.
528
00:23:52,438 --> 00:23:54,490
All right, there's got
to be more to that story.
529
00:23:54,574 --> 00:23:56,064
Chelsea Crocker--
530
00:23:56,089 --> 00:23:58,074
she had little plastic flower
barrettes in her hair.
531
00:23:58,078 --> 00:23:59,495
The strands of it
532
00:23:59,562 --> 00:24:03,132
she ripped out at the scalp
as the PCP ripped through her,
533
00:24:03,199 --> 00:24:04,783
scratched her arms to threads.
534
00:24:04,834 --> 00:24:08,220
She was 12 years old,
70 pounds.
535
00:24:08,287 --> 00:24:10,756
Gram of PCP shoved
down her throat.
536
00:24:11,108 --> 00:24:12,308
Dumped like trash.
537
00:24:12,759 --> 00:24:15,144
What ab-- what about
the brother?
538
00:24:15,228 --> 00:24:16,678
Ken Crocker.
539
00:24:16,763 --> 00:24:18,147
19, user.
540
00:24:18,231 --> 00:24:19,965
We found him a day
later in an alleyway
541
00:24:20,016 --> 00:24:21,433
on the nod, right?
542
00:24:21,484 --> 00:24:22,684
He confessed.
543
00:24:22,769 --> 00:24:25,821
Said his little sister
was getting on his nerves,
544
00:24:25,905 --> 00:24:27,305
so he fed her the dust,
545
00:24:27,357 --> 00:24:28,907
just wanted to see
what would happen.
546
00:24:28,932 --> 00:24:29,808
Wow. All right.
547
00:24:29,809 --> 00:24:32,694
And where-where was Mom
Darlene during all of this?
548
00:24:32,779 --> 00:24:34,079
She was at home asleep,
taking a nap.
549
00:24:34,147 --> 00:24:35,681
Gave off a weird vibe, though.
550
00:24:35,749 --> 00:24:37,699
It was something we should've
taken a closer look at.
551
00:24:37,767 --> 00:24:39,151
Why? What do you mean?
552
00:24:39,202 --> 00:24:40,586
Well, about two years
into his sentence,
553
00:24:40,653 --> 00:24:42,037
brother Ken hires a P.I.
554
00:24:42,122 --> 00:24:43,589
He said he was
so messed up
555
00:24:43,656 --> 00:24:45,124
on the night
of his sister's death
556
00:24:45,175 --> 00:24:46,658
that he forgot he had an alibi.
557
00:24:46,709 --> 00:24:48,827
So, the P.I.
checks it out,
558
00:24:48,878 --> 00:24:51,430
proves it, gets Ken off.
559
00:24:51,497 --> 00:24:54,049
But the kid blew his luck
two days later on a motorcycle.
560
00:24:54,134 --> 00:24:57,019
So, the mom was the
only one at home
561
00:24:57,103 --> 00:24:59,054
the night that
Chelsea died.
562
00:24:59,139 --> 00:25:00,973
The cup used to dose her
had the fingerprints
563
00:25:01,024 --> 00:25:02,441
of both Darlene and Ken on it.
564
00:25:02,508 --> 00:25:04,226
So with Ken
out of the picture,
565
00:25:04,310 --> 00:25:06,478
Darlene was
the last suspect standing.
566
00:25:06,529 --> 00:25:09,064
But the DA refused
to indict, based upon
567
00:25:09,149 --> 00:25:11,066
Ken's wrongful conviction,
because he said it
568
00:25:11,151 --> 00:25:12,818
"muddied the waters."
569
00:25:14,404 --> 00:25:16,321
Well, I guess the waters
are a lot cleaner
570
00:25:16,372 --> 00:25:17,623
now that justice is served.
571
00:25:21,861 --> 00:25:25,697
Well, you know, whether or not
she was guilty back then,
572
00:25:25,748 --> 00:25:27,499
Darlene Crocker was murdered.
573
00:25:27,550 --> 00:25:28,550
- And I need...
- Whoa, whoa, whoa,
574
00:25:28,635 --> 00:25:29,968
whoa, whoa.
575
00:25:32,555 --> 00:25:33,872
The little girl was murdered.
576
00:25:33,923 --> 00:25:37,726
Darlene got what
was coming to her.
577
00:25:40,180 --> 00:25:41,213
Hey...
578
00:25:41,264 --> 00:25:42,347
are we done here?
579
00:25:42,398 --> 00:25:44,566
Because I got
a lot of work to do.
580
00:25:46,385 --> 00:25:48,654
Chromatogram of
the by-products
581
00:25:48,721 --> 00:25:50,572
and impurities in the PCP sample
582
00:25:50,657 --> 00:25:52,574
from Darlene Crocker's
motel room this morning,
583
00:25:52,642 --> 00:25:54,660
and the same analysis of the PCP
584
00:25:54,727 --> 00:25:56,895
that killed
Chelsea Crocker in '89.
585
00:25:56,946 --> 00:25:59,531
Mother and daughter
didn't just die on PCP.
586
00:25:59,582 --> 00:26:02,167
They died on PCP
from the exact same batch.
587
00:26:02,235 --> 00:26:06,205
Well, no dealer or user would
hold on to the same drug batch
588
00:26:06,256 --> 00:26:08,257
for 22 years.
589
00:26:09,342 --> 00:26:11,593
But I know someplace that does.
590
00:26:21,371 --> 00:26:23,421
All right, a PCP sample
591
00:26:23,473 --> 00:26:25,858
from Chelsea's death
was checked out
592
00:26:25,925 --> 00:26:28,527
of the police evidence
vault last November.
593
00:26:28,595 --> 00:26:31,113
By who?
594
00:26:31,197 --> 00:26:33,699
Detective
Stan Richardson?
595
00:26:33,766 --> 00:26:35,651
Sample was never returned.
596
00:26:38,655 --> 00:26:40,272
VARTANN:
Richardson?
597
00:26:40,323 --> 00:26:41,957
He retired a year back.
598
00:26:42,041 --> 00:26:43,125
Did you work with him much?
599
00:26:43,209 --> 00:26:44,376
No, I used to
drink with him.
600
00:26:44,443 --> 00:26:45,610
A bunch of us did.
601
00:26:45,662 --> 00:26:47,629
Bar called the Blue Rail.
602
00:26:47,714 --> 00:26:49,081
Richardson would buy rounds
603
00:26:49,132 --> 00:26:51,300
and listen to us
bitch about the job.
604
00:26:51,384 --> 00:26:52,968
If you had a case that
was really bothering you,
605
00:26:53,052 --> 00:26:54,636
you'd talk to him about it.
He had a way
606
00:26:54,721 --> 00:26:56,004
of putting things
in perspective.
607
00:26:56,089 --> 00:26:57,306
Make you feel better.
608
00:26:57,390 --> 00:26:59,958
Did you talk to him about
the Mikey Moran case?
609
00:27:00,009 --> 00:27:01,176
About Kevin Fetzer?
610
00:27:01,261 --> 00:27:03,461
It was 20 years ago.
611
00:27:03,513 --> 00:27:04,897
You know, I might have.
612
00:27:04,964 --> 00:27:06,298
Talk to him recently?
613
00:27:06,349 --> 00:27:09,467
Not since I stopped
drinking, so...
614
00:27:09,519 --> 00:27:12,535
11 years, seven months
and 14 days.
615
00:27:12,536 --> 00:27:14,053
We've been trying to reach him,
and his address
616
00:27:14,157 --> 00:27:15,908
and number on file
are no good.
617
00:27:15,975 --> 00:27:20,028
Like I said, you know,
it's been years.
618
00:27:22,615 --> 00:27:23,782
(sighs)
619
00:27:23,833 --> 00:27:27,619
I mean, last I heard,
there were still a few guys
620
00:27:27,670 --> 00:27:30,422
who'd tip 'em back
with Richardson.
621
00:27:30,489 --> 00:27:32,541
Who?
622
00:27:36,629 --> 00:27:38,830
Hey, what do you drink, Jim?
623
00:27:38,881 --> 00:27:40,766
Are you a
scotch man?
624
00:27:40,833 --> 00:27:43,468
I'm more picky about
the company than the drink.
625
00:27:43,519 --> 00:27:44,886
Did you forget something?
626
00:27:44,971 --> 00:27:47,889
I heard that you used to drink
with Stan Richardson.
627
00:27:47,974 --> 00:27:49,725
Yeah, and...?
628
00:27:49,809 --> 00:27:51,526
Well, I was just hoping
you could tell me
629
00:27:51,611 --> 00:27:52,894
anything you could about him?
630
00:27:52,979 --> 00:27:54,696
He's a good detective.
631
00:27:54,781 --> 00:27:56,064
Wore the job hard.
632
00:27:56,149 --> 00:27:57,816
Hopefully on
a houseboat somewhere.
633
00:27:59,569 --> 00:28:01,036
Did something happen to him?
634
00:28:01,120 --> 00:28:04,356
Do you know where
that houseboat might be?
635
00:28:04,407 --> 00:28:06,541
This about the revenge murders?
636
00:28:06,609 --> 00:28:08,193
Do you think he's involved?
637
00:28:08,244 --> 00:28:10,528
We have reason to believe, yeah.
638
00:28:10,580 --> 00:28:12,297
You're wrong. It's a fantasy.
639
00:28:12,365 --> 00:28:14,299
Every cop keeps a hit list
of loose cases
640
00:28:14,367 --> 00:28:16,134
and unfinished business
running around in his head.
641
00:28:16,202 --> 00:28:17,469
Nobody ever
acts on it.
642
00:28:17,536 --> 00:28:20,205
Stan Richardson
checked out drug evidence
643
00:28:20,256 --> 00:28:21,923
two days before
he retired.
644
00:28:22,008 --> 00:28:25,844
It was used this morning in
the murder of Darlene Crocker.
645
00:28:31,550 --> 00:28:34,552
Richardson is not a murderer.
646
00:28:34,604 --> 00:28:36,655
Well, maybe he calls it justice.
647
00:28:36,722 --> 00:28:37,906
You know?
648
00:28:37,991 --> 00:28:40,993
They get what they
have coming, right?
649
00:28:43,663 --> 00:28:45,580
(phone rings)
650
00:28:45,665 --> 00:28:47,616
Excuse me. Yeah?
651
00:28:47,700 --> 00:28:48,834
STOKES:
Okay, listen up, boss.
652
00:28:48,901 --> 00:28:50,952
The Pension Office said
Richardson's funds
653
00:28:51,020 --> 00:28:53,455
are direct deposit
to some bank.
654
00:28:53,523 --> 00:28:56,758
He said that automatic payments
for rent are to 600 Oak Street.
655
00:28:56,843 --> 00:28:58,677
Catherine and I are
headed there right now.
656
00:28:58,761 --> 00:29:00,429
Okay.
657
00:29:00,513 --> 00:29:02,264
Make sure you bring backup.
658
00:29:05,635 --> 00:29:06,885
(phone beeps off)
659
00:29:10,723 --> 00:29:12,541
Mr. Richardson doesn't
get many visitors.
660
00:29:12,608 --> 00:29:14,226
Exactly how long
has Mr. Richardson
661
00:29:14,277 --> 00:29:15,560
been residing here?
662
00:29:15,611 --> 00:29:16,778
Six weeks.
663
00:29:16,863 --> 00:29:18,480
He'll be missed
when he departs.
664
00:29:19,866 --> 00:29:22,534
Mr. Richardson, some friends are
here to see you.
665
00:29:28,741 --> 00:29:30,275
Detective...
666
00:29:30,326 --> 00:29:31,827
Richardson?
667
00:29:32,487 --> 00:29:34,872
You finally caught up to me.
668
00:29:43,273 --> 00:29:44,557
RICHARDSON:
What more do you want?.
669
00:29:44,641 --> 00:29:46,275
You've got my confession.
670
00:29:46,342 --> 00:29:49,228
I made those people pay
for their crimes.
671
00:29:49,312 --> 00:29:51,063
I'm ready to settle up.
672
00:29:51,148 --> 00:29:54,116
Well, we've talked to
your hospice nurses, Stan.
673
00:29:54,184 --> 00:29:56,018
End-stage pancreatic cancer.
674
00:29:56,069 --> 00:29:57,903
You haven't been out
of bed in a month.
675
00:29:57,988 --> 00:30:01,540
When something must be done,
the universe
676
00:30:01,625 --> 00:30:04,193
has a way of granting power.
677
00:30:04,244 --> 00:30:05,861
Oh, we're in
agreement
678
00:30:05,912 --> 00:30:07,196
that you had help;
it was just
679
00:30:07,247 --> 00:30:10,082
more of the human variety.
680
00:30:10,167 --> 00:30:11,917
(muffled cough)
Well, since
681
00:30:12,002 --> 00:30:14,703
you're so at peace with the
universe, you wouldn't mind us
682
00:30:14,754 --> 00:30:17,423
taking a look around your
little corner of it?
683
00:30:17,507 --> 00:30:19,875
No. Go ahead.
684
00:30:19,926 --> 00:30:22,011
Thank you.
685
00:30:22,062 --> 00:30:23,929
If you see
686
00:30:24,014 --> 00:30:25,764
anything you like...
687
00:30:25,849 --> 00:30:27,983
I have no need for it anymore.
688
00:30:40,697 --> 00:30:42,414
(Richardson coughs)
689
00:30:59,216 --> 00:31:01,600
Nick.
690
00:31:05,088 --> 00:31:07,973
(whispering):
There was trace of lily pollen
691
00:31:08,058 --> 00:31:09,275
on Darlene Crocker.
692
00:31:12,195 --> 00:31:14,363
Soil's been disturbed.
693
00:31:26,543 --> 00:31:29,378
(muffled coughing)
694
00:31:30,630 --> 00:31:32,698
Avenging angel's
buried treasure?
695
00:31:32,766 --> 00:31:35,217
Mm-hmm. Angel's got
to have somebody out there
696
00:31:35,285 --> 00:31:36,618
doing the killing
for him.
697
00:31:36,670 --> 00:31:38,053
That same killer
698
00:31:38,121 --> 00:31:39,955
tracked pollen
into the motel scene,
699
00:31:40,006 --> 00:31:41,257
and the pollen...
700
00:31:43,927 --> 00:31:45,844
...led us to this lockbox.
701
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,234
Sara?
702
00:31:53,270 --> 00:31:55,271
It's the evidence tag
from the PCP
703
00:31:55,322 --> 00:31:57,656
that killed Chelsea and Darlene.
704
00:32:21,131 --> 00:32:22,715
Hidden compartment.
705
00:32:22,799 --> 00:32:23,665
Yeah.
706
00:32:41,651 --> 00:32:43,569
What do you think?
707
00:32:43,653 --> 00:32:45,287
Evidence from another cold case?
708
00:32:45,355 --> 00:32:49,158
Maybe Richardson's got
more names on his list.
709
00:32:50,577 --> 00:32:52,328
Revenge.
710
00:32:52,379 --> 00:32:54,463
Cool and serve.
711
00:32:57,634 --> 00:32:59,084
I hope you got something.
712
00:32:59,169 --> 00:33:01,153
Nick and Sara couldn't
find any prints
713
00:33:01,221 --> 00:33:03,872
on Richardson's strongbox
or its contents,
714
00:33:03,923 --> 00:33:05,974
so whoever's doing this
is being careful.
715
00:33:06,042 --> 00:33:09,228
Did you find any
potential victims?
716
00:33:09,312 --> 00:33:11,430
(sighs) Talked with a dozen officers
who worked with Richardson.
717
00:33:11,514 --> 00:33:12,898
They got any
ideas who else
718
00:33:12,982 --> 00:33:15,267
was in his bucket list,
they're not saying.
719
00:33:15,352 --> 00:33:17,269
And skimming the cases he
worked, nothing stands out.
720
00:33:17,354 --> 00:33:18,821
There's plenty
of unsolveds,
721
00:33:18,888 --> 00:33:22,441
but no obvious ones
that got away.
722
00:33:22,525 --> 00:33:23,742
RUSSELL:
Sheriff Liston.
723
00:33:23,810 --> 00:33:25,861
Stan Richardson was
my first partner.
724
00:33:25,912 --> 00:33:28,063
Taught me everything
when I was a rookie.
725
00:33:28,114 --> 00:33:29,564
Taught a lot of cops.
726
00:33:29,616 --> 00:33:32,084
I don't know who
he's working with now,
727
00:33:32,168 --> 00:33:35,337
but I got a bad feeling
that's his next target.
728
00:33:38,875 --> 00:33:40,459
Rex Camford?
15 years back,
729
00:33:40,543 --> 00:33:42,127
Camford's wife
filed for divorce.
730
00:33:42,212 --> 00:33:43,578
Vanished the next night.
731
00:33:43,630 --> 00:33:45,130
Same night Camford
takes his boat out
732
00:33:45,215 --> 00:33:47,433
for a midnight cruise
on Lake Mead.
733
00:33:47,517 --> 00:33:49,268
All we had was
a handful
734
00:33:49,352 --> 00:33:51,220
of circumstantial
and a DA who shied
735
00:33:51,271 --> 00:33:53,806
from no-body cases.
No charges.
736
00:33:53,890 --> 00:33:55,808
No doubt in my mind
Camford killed his wife.
737
00:33:55,892 --> 00:33:58,110
What about Richardson,
did he feel the same way?
738
00:33:58,194 --> 00:33:59,978
Well, after I talked
his ear off about it
739
00:34:00,063 --> 00:34:01,763
for six whiskies straight
at the Blue Rail,
740
00:34:01,815 --> 00:34:03,598
he was madder than I was.
741
00:34:03,650 --> 00:34:06,151
Which is why I've been trying
to get ahold of Camford.
742
00:34:06,236 --> 00:34:08,603
His housekeeper said
he didn't make it home from work.
743
00:34:08,655 --> 00:34:09,771
Okay, why don't you...
744
00:34:09,823 --> 00:34:10,923
WILLOWS:
Sheriff.
745
00:34:10,990 --> 00:34:12,574
Ah, Catherine,
Sheriff's got a hunch
746
00:34:12,625 --> 00:34:13,942
about another
possible target.
747
00:34:13,993 --> 00:34:15,777
What do you have?
748
00:34:15,829 --> 00:34:18,997
Richardson's phone records
from the hospice.
749
00:34:19,082 --> 00:34:22,050
The only recent calls were
made from a disposable cell.
750
00:34:22,118 --> 00:34:23,802
Check out the times
of the calls.
751
00:34:23,887 --> 00:34:26,722
RUSSELL: They line up with
the times of the murders.
752
00:34:26,790 --> 00:34:28,006
Yeah.
753
00:34:28,091 --> 00:34:29,958
Someone has been keeping
Richardson updated
754
00:34:30,009 --> 00:34:31,727
on his progress.
755
00:34:33,096 --> 00:34:35,347
I was able to ping
the disposable cell.
756
00:34:35,432 --> 00:34:37,249
Signal hit tower 114
757
00:34:37,317 --> 00:34:39,902
from a southerly direction,
about five minutes ago.
758
00:34:39,969 --> 00:34:41,687
So...
759
00:34:41,771 --> 00:34:44,556
Richardson's wingman
is at Lake Mead.
760
00:34:44,624 --> 00:34:45,941
Good work.
761
00:34:45,992 --> 00:34:49,194
And what are the chances Rex
Camford's along for the ride?
762
00:34:52,482 --> 00:34:55,200
(sirens wailing)
763
00:34:59,105 --> 00:35:01,006
Detective Vega!
Show me your hands!
764
00:35:01,074 --> 00:35:02,441
Son of a bitch!
765
00:35:04,494 --> 00:35:05,761
BRASS:
Sam!
766
00:35:05,828 --> 00:35:07,095
We all know what Camford did,
767
00:35:07,163 --> 00:35:08,430
and we're gonna make
sure he pays for it.
768
00:35:08,498 --> 00:35:10,182
- Let us handle it.
- System had its chance, Jim!
769
00:35:10,266 --> 00:35:12,851
It didn't do jack!
770
00:35:12,919 --> 00:35:14,303
You know,
if it was just you and me,
771
00:35:14,370 --> 00:35:15,504
you'd be down here
helping me out.
772
00:35:15,555 --> 00:35:16,855
BRASS:
I'm trying to help you.
773
00:35:16,940 --> 00:35:19,107
Lose the piece,
and we're all good.
774
00:35:20,843 --> 00:35:22,227
Drop the gun, Sam.
775
00:35:22,312 --> 00:35:23,662
Hey, guys, he's not moving.
776
00:35:24,847 --> 00:35:26,899
Sam...
STOKES: Come on, Sammy,
777
00:35:26,983 --> 00:35:28,200
we've been through
too much together, man.
778
00:35:28,284 --> 00:35:29,284
Let us help you out.
779
00:35:35,775 --> 00:35:37,142
Sure.
780
00:35:38,461 --> 00:35:40,579
You can help me out.
781
00:35:41,831 --> 00:35:42,881
BRASS:
No!
782
00:35:44,601 --> 00:35:46,552
Vega!
Vega!
783
00:35:47,387 --> 00:35:48,654
I got him!
784
00:35:50,790 --> 00:35:51,890
STOKES:
Get him up to the bank!
785
00:35:51,975 --> 00:35:52,975
Pull him up here!
786
00:35:54,594 --> 00:35:56,094
Come on, Vega,
stay with me.
787
00:35:56,179 --> 00:35:57,262
Stay with me, brother.
788
00:35:57,330 --> 00:35:58,430
Get him on his side.
Come on, now.
789
00:35:58,498 --> 00:35:59,965
Here we go...
STOKES: Vega!
790
00:36:01,884 --> 00:36:02,851
Yeah, we got a pulse.
791
00:36:02,902 --> 00:36:04,686
Go get an ambu-bag.
Go on.
792
00:36:04,754 --> 00:36:05,887
OFFICER:
He's gonna make it.
793
00:36:05,939 --> 00:36:07,656
No...
He's gone.
794
00:36:07,723 --> 00:36:08,774
Control, this is Brass.
795
00:36:08,858 --> 00:36:10,492
We have an officer down, 419.
796
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:11,660
Hey, hurry up!
797
00:36:15,615 --> 00:36:18,333
All right,
here we go, buddy.
798
00:36:18,401 --> 00:36:20,285
Russell.
799
00:36:21,237 --> 00:36:22,454
Why don't you back off of him?
800
00:36:22,539 --> 00:36:24,239
Let-let them
handle it.
801
00:36:24,290 --> 00:36:25,757
They got it.
802
00:36:29,546 --> 00:36:31,413
One additional.
803
00:36:31,464 --> 00:36:33,098
Middle-aged man.
804
00:36:33,166 --> 00:36:35,517
Requires medical.
805
00:36:57,375 --> 00:37:00,928
Okay, Bud, Denali's
all packed up.
806
00:37:00,929 --> 00:37:02,008
It's been a long night.
807
00:37:02,009 --> 00:37:03,072
You want to
hit the road?
808
00:37:03,073 --> 00:37:04,674
Yeah, we probably should.
809
00:37:04,742 --> 00:37:05,959
But let me ask you something.
810
00:37:06,043 --> 00:37:10,447
There are miles of secluded
shoreline on this lake,
811
00:37:10,514 --> 00:37:12,215
so why did Vega bring Rex here?
812
00:37:12,266 --> 00:37:14,250
Why this spot
in particular?
813
00:37:14,302 --> 00:37:17,086
Maybe with a gun to his head,
Rex was compelled to lead Vega
814
00:37:17,138 --> 00:37:19,940
to the very spot where
he dumped his wife.
815
00:37:20,024 --> 00:37:23,810
Now, that's interesting.
816
00:37:23,895 --> 00:37:26,897
What do you say
we wake somebody up.
817
00:37:36,490 --> 00:37:38,708
STOKES:
That looks like
818
00:37:38,776 --> 00:37:41,494
a skull.
- Oh, yeah.
819
00:37:46,234 --> 00:37:47,784
Thank you, fellas.
820
00:37:47,835 --> 00:37:49,169
Look at that.
821
00:37:49,253 --> 00:37:51,721
Sharp orbital margins.
822
00:37:51,789 --> 00:37:53,340
Female.
823
00:37:53,424 --> 00:37:55,842
Shot in the back of
the head-- look at that.
824
00:37:55,927 --> 00:37:57,811
Probably dead before
she hit the water.
825
00:37:57,895 --> 00:37:59,679
You want to know
what I remember most
826
00:37:59,764 --> 00:38:01,815
about that Camford case
I worked back then?
827
00:38:03,351 --> 00:38:05,969
This gorgeous Colt revolver
828
00:38:06,020 --> 00:38:08,521
sitting on that arrogant
bastard's desk.
829
00:38:08,606 --> 00:38:09,973
We still have it;
it's in evidence.
830
00:38:10,024 --> 00:38:13,410
Richardson's not the only one
that holds on to stuff.
831
00:38:29,927 --> 00:38:29,993
(sighs)
832
00:38:31,929 --> 00:38:34,014
RICHARDSON:
To my colleagues,
833
00:38:34,098 --> 00:38:37,350
who have shared the burden
of the badge.
834
00:38:40,638 --> 00:38:43,673
Many of you won't agree
with my methods,
835
00:38:43,724 --> 00:38:45,392
but all of you
will understand...
836
00:38:49,613 --> 00:38:53,033
...what it's like to have all
the pieces set before you...
837
00:38:59,523 --> 00:39:02,575
...the picture painted
broad and clear...
838
00:39:08,699 --> 00:39:12,052
...and watch
the killer walk away...
839
00:39:14,138 --> 00:39:17,206
...to live the life
they tore from others.
840
00:39:19,343 --> 00:39:21,928
Well, I could not
let that continue.
841
00:39:24,181 --> 00:39:25,598
I made a list.
842
00:39:27,018 --> 00:39:29,602
Five names.
843
00:39:29,687 --> 00:39:32,906
Those most deserving
of vengeance.
844
00:39:34,275 --> 00:39:39,896
And now, as I embark
into life's last mystery,
845
00:39:39,947 --> 00:39:41,664
I do so in peace.
846
00:39:43,501 --> 00:39:46,169
Detective Stanley Richardson,
847
00:39:46,236 --> 00:39:48,455
Las Vegas Police Department.
848
00:39:50,374 --> 00:39:52,292
I heard about the letter.
849
00:39:52,376 --> 00:39:56,346
Guy certainly knew how
to get his message across.
850
00:39:56,414 --> 00:39:59,349
Well, cops can be
851
00:39:59,416 --> 00:40:03,386
refreshingly frank
sometimes, right?
852
00:40:06,140 --> 00:40:07,924
(sighs):
Listen...
853
00:40:07,975 --> 00:40:10,310
I know you and I
aren't gonna buy
854
00:40:10,394 --> 00:40:12,312
a summer house
together anytime soon,
855
00:40:12,396 --> 00:40:14,263
but I have a lot
of respect for you.
856
00:40:14,315 --> 00:40:16,032
Let's not forget,
857
00:40:16,100 --> 00:40:19,069
we did put away a wife-killer.
858
00:40:20,905 --> 00:40:24,624
Okay. Good talk.
859
00:40:24,708 --> 00:40:25,875
Hold on a minute.
860
00:40:27,328 --> 00:40:30,713
Richardson's letter
mentioned five names.
861
00:40:30,781 --> 00:40:33,616
Yeah, Vega was the fifth.
862
00:40:33,667 --> 00:40:38,421
There was a knife inside of
Richardson's lockbox.
863
00:40:38,472 --> 00:40:40,623
Sara found a little
blood inside of it,
864
00:40:40,674 --> 00:40:42,809
and it was a match to
a murdered informant
865
00:40:42,893 --> 00:40:45,512
that Vega had been
working a few years past.
866
00:40:45,596 --> 00:40:49,465
(sighs) Sam Vega could
always be a little, um...
867
00:40:49,517 --> 00:40:52,301
overzealous, especially
if he thought someone
868
00:40:52,353 --> 00:40:53,736
was holding out on him.
869
00:40:53,804 --> 00:40:55,188
You want my theory?
870
00:40:55,272 --> 00:40:57,190
Richardson knew
that Vega was dirty.
871
00:40:57,274 --> 00:40:58,825
Kept the murder weapon.
872
00:40:58,909 --> 00:41:01,277
Because he wanted Vega
to pay for his sins
873
00:41:01,328 --> 00:41:03,163
just like the rest of them.
874
00:41:08,152 --> 00:41:10,587
You know, it turns out both
funerals are on the same day.
875
00:41:10,654 --> 00:41:13,423
Vega and Richardson.
876
00:41:13,490 --> 00:41:16,092
Well...
877
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,129
I thought I'd get up early,
878
00:41:19,180 --> 00:41:22,999
get on a motorcycle,
879
00:41:23,050 --> 00:41:26,219
and get very far out of town.
880
00:41:26,303 --> 00:41:29,338
I think that's a very good idea.
881
00:41:30,774 --> 00:41:34,774
