No shell casings, no skull fragments,
no gray matter.

He left here after his last class got out
at 5:30.

If there was a meeting,
I would've heard about it.
87
00:05:20,119 --> 00:05:21,746

88
00:05:21,921 --> 00:05:24,253
Or she lied to us?
89
00:05:42,475 --> 00:05:44,602
Professor Annunzio
was chair of the department.

of the offices on this floor?

- Appointment book.

Maybe it'll tell us
what he got up to last night.
96
00:06:06,733 --> 00:06:08,030
Unlikely he would notate trips
97
00:06:08,201 --> 00:06:10,396

Chinese gambling parlor.
98
00:06:10,603 --> 00:06:13,071

- That's what he was doing last night.

00:06:13,239 --> 00:06:17,403
I know you're just waiting
for me to ask you why you think that.
100
00:06:18,378 --> 00:06:19,402
Why do you think that?
101
00:06:19,612 --> 00:06:21,409
I'm glad you asked. It was the 13s.
102
00:06:22,682 --> 00:06:26,174
His apartment number was 13,
his cell-phone number ends in 1313,
103
00:06:26,352 --> 00:06:29,685
and he chose this office, number 13,
when he could've had the far brighter
104
00:06:29,856 --> 00:06:31,983
and more spacious office
across the hall, number 14.
105
00:06:32,158 --> 00:06:34,626
Why? Because 14
is an unlucky number
106
00:06:34,794 --> 00:06:35,818
in Chinese gambling.
107
00:06:35,995 --> 00:06:37,587
Thirteen, quite the opposite.
108
00:06:37,764 --> 00:06:39,061
Annunzio spoke fluent Mandarin.
109
00:06:39,232 --> 00:06:41,063
Surely he could talk his way
into the mah-jongg
110
00:06:41,234 --> 00:06:42,895
or Pai Gow parlors in Chinatown.
111
00:06:43,069 --> 00:06:44,331
Maybe he's a gambler.
112
00:06:44,504 --> 00:06:46,870
Doesn't mean he was gambling
last night.
113
00:06:48,374 --> 00:06:51,901
Did you not notice his underwear
earlier? Bright red boxers. Hmm?
114
00:06:52,078 --> 00:06:55,878
Customary for Chinese gamblers
to wear red for good luck.
115
00:06:56,549 --> 00:07:00,280
His clothes reeked of cigarettes,
but his teeth were bright white,
116
00:07:00,453 --> 00:07:01,920
not smoker-yellow.
117
00:07:02,088 --> 00:07:05,023
He was gambling
and he was gambling in a smoky room.
118
00:07:05,191 --> 00:07:07,523
Starting to think you're right.
119
00:07:08,027 --> 00:07:10,257
Mah-jongg tiles.
120
00:07:10,696 --> 00:07:12,755
HOLMES: Those are different sizes,
they're different colors.
121
00:07:12,932 --> 00:07:14,797
They're clearly from different sets.
122
00:07:14,967 --> 00:07:18,130
Now, mah-jongg tiles come in pairs.
Why would he hold onto one of each?
123
00:07:18,304 --> 00:07:21,171
Because these tiles aren't for playing.
124
00:07:21,340 --> 00:07:24,036
They're membership cards
to underground casinos.
125
00:07:24,277 --> 00:07:25,938
Aren't you gonna ask me
how I knew that?
126
00:07:29,415 --> 00:07:31,280
Fine. Whatever.
When I worked Vice,

and weed out cops.

which parlors use which tiles.

You want to tell me what you did?

00:08:04,584 --> 00:08:07,075
According to the cops, hit-and-run.

these two cops banging on my door,

saying that I ran a red light
at 2 in the morning,
144
00:08:19,232 --> 00:08:21,860
I clipped some lady's car
and sent her to the hospital.
145
00:08:24,871 --> 00:08:26,270
Why'd they think it was you?
146
00:08:26,439 --> 00:08:29,931
Because somebody got a picture
of my car speeding away
147
00:08:30,109 --> 00:08:32,168
and got the license plate
and everything.
148
00:08:32,345 --> 00:08:33,369
It wasn't me, okay?

Joanie, you know how bad
I've always been with my keys.
150
00:08:35,848 --> 00:08:38,840
I probably left them in the car.
Somebody saw it, took it for a joyride...
151
00:08:39,018 --> 00:08:41,043
- Liam.
- Look, I think I would've remembered
152
00:08:41,220 --> 00:08:42,346
clipping someone else's car.

Did you sort your old client out?
171
00:09:33,339 --> 00:09:36,172
Well, private information.
172
00:09:36,375 --> 00:09:39,344
Hmm. Well, Detective Bell
has managed to acquire the addresses
173
00:09:39,512 --> 00:09:41,776
of three different gambling parlors.
174
00:09:41,948 --> 00:09:44,849
We determined Trent Annunzio
was not in the first two last night,
175
00:09:45,017 --> 00:09:47,611
so I'd say you're just in time.
176
00:09:55,027 --> 00:09:57,427
N.Y.P.D. Can we come in?
177
00:10:05,037 --> 00:10:07,733
Can I help with your old client?
178
00:10:07,907 --> 00:10:10,740
It's obvious his predicament
is distracting you.
179
00:10:10,910 --> 00:10:12,969
- He isn't your problem.
- No.
180
00:10:13,145 --> 00:10:15,705
But he and I are members
of a very exclusive club.
181
00:10:15,881 --> 00:10:18,315
The sober clients of Joan Watson.
182
00:10:18,484 --> 00:10:20,918
Brothers, in a sense.
183
00:10:21,087 --> 00:10:23,555
If there's any chance he's innocent...
184
00:10:23,723 --> 00:10:25,247
He's not.
185
00:10:31,430 --> 00:10:32,658
BELL:
You in charge here?
186
00:10:32,832 --> 00:10:36,427
[MEN TALKING
IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
187
00:10:36,602 --> 00:10:37,626
BELL:
Hey, guys.
188
00:10:37,803 --> 00:10:39,794
Did he tell you he was not innocent?
189
00:10:39,972 --> 00:10:43,135
He shot up a few nights ago,
hit a woman with his car.
190
00:10:43,309 --> 00:10:45,072
He doesn't remember
because he blacked out.
191
00:10:45,244 --> 00:10:47,678
But not remembering something
doesn't mean you didn't do it.
192
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,007
Nor does it mean you did do it.
193
00:10:50,182 --> 00:10:51,672
This client crossed some boundaries.
194
00:10:51,884 --> 00:10:54,512
Abused my good faith
on more than one occasion.
195
00:10:55,187 --> 00:10:58,452
If this is how he bottoms out,
I have to let it happen.
196
00:10:59,325 --> 00:11:00,792
No one here speaks English.
197
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,157
No, detective,
I don't believe that's true.
198
00:11:04,330 --> 00:11:05,354
You. Uh...
199
00:11:05,531 --> 00:11:09,433
You recently applied bleach
to this section of the floor, did you not?
200
00:11:09,602 --> 00:11:11,160
We both know
that you understand me,
201
00:11:11,337 --> 00:11:13,601
just like we both know
that you're not the janitor.
202
00:11:13,773 --> 00:11:17,004
You may have put that apron on, but
you're wearing bespoke Italian shoes.
203
00:11:17,176 --> 00:11:19,110
I think you own this place,
and if you do,
204
00:11:19,278 --> 00:11:21,269
you need to communicate
with suppliers, vendors.
205
00:11:21,447 --> 00:11:22,471
You speak English.
206
00:11:22,648 --> 00:11:25,776
So, ahem, you recently applied bleach
to this section of the floor
207
00:11:25,951 --> 00:11:27,782
and this section of the floor only.
208
00:11:27,953 --> 00:11:29,318
I would like to know why.
209
00:11:35,795 --> 00:11:38,628
We had a drunk in the club.
210
00:11:38,798 --> 00:11:40,789
He threw up there.
211
00:11:41,567 --> 00:11:42,966
On an area this large?
212
00:11:43,135 --> 00:11:46,627
And with such force
you had to spackle the wall?
213
00:11:47,506 --> 00:11:50,031
I suggest you either stop serving
that particular cocktail
214
00:11:50,209 --> 00:11:52,200
or you just admit
that you had a shooting in here,
215
00:11:52,378 --> 00:11:55,006
and you dug two slugs
out of the wall.
216
00:11:57,149 --> 00:12:00,050
- Fine, let's let the video decide.
- What video?
217
00:12:01,387 --> 00:12:04,015
The one you recorded on that.
218
00:12:05,391 --> 00:12:07,825
Holmes, that's a smoke detector.
219
00:12:07,993 --> 00:12:10,655
Positioned directly over a hibachi grill?
I don't think so.
220
00:12:10,830 --> 00:12:13,731
That is a security camera
designed to look like a smoke detector.
221
00:12:13,899 --> 00:12:15,924
I subscribe to several
personal security catalogs
222
00:12:16,102 --> 00:12:18,662
and I recognize the make
and the model, so, ahem...
223
00:12:19,338 --> 00:12:21,272
Would you like to take it from here,
detective?
224
00:12:21,474 --> 00:12:25,604
Show us the footage or you'll never
deal another hand in this place.
225
00:12:26,078 --> 00:12:27,705
Go get my computer.
226
00:12:29,749 --> 00:12:31,614
There's our man.
227
00:12:32,585 --> 00:12:34,485
And there's the man
who shot our man.
228
00:12:35,187 --> 00:12:38,247
BILL: Perp pulls a gun on a bouncer,
pushes in.
229
00:12:38,424 --> 00:12:40,915
"Give me all your wallets
or I'll shoot your head off."
230
00:12:41,093 --> 00:12:42,720
No surprise, most do.
231
00:12:42,895 --> 00:12:44,795
Save Professor Annunzio.
232
00:12:45,698 --> 00:12:48,792
He's frozen up.
You might not want to watch this part.
233
00:12:50,770 --> 00:12:52,237
[GASPS]
234
00:12:52,404 --> 00:12:54,133
I take it we have you or your people
to thank
235
00:12:54,306 --> 00:12:56,069
for dumping him under the
Manhattan Bridge.
236
00:12:56,242 --> 00:12:58,540
Hey, we were victims too.
237
00:12:58,711 --> 00:13:02,203
I'd like to see the other video, the one
where you see the gunman's face.
238
00:13:02,381 --> 00:13:03,643
What other video?
239
00:13:03,816 --> 00:13:06,216
Well, the hallway we came down
was a good 80 feet.
240
00:13:06,385 --> 00:13:08,046
If the gunman had come in
wearing a mask,
241
00:13:08,220 --> 00:13:10,711
the bouncer would've had
more than enough time to subdue him,
242
00:13:10,890 --> 00:13:12,050
or sound an alarm.
243
00:13:12,224 --> 00:13:15,125
But the commotion didn't start
until the gunman entered the club.
244
00:13:15,294 --> 00:13:18,957
He must've come down the hallway
barefaced, and then pulled the gun.
245
00:13:19,131 --> 00:13:21,895
Yes, I know, you prefer
to keep his face to yourself.
246
00:13:22,067 --> 00:13:24,763
You probably have your colleagues
searching for him as we speak.
247
00:13:24,937 --> 00:13:26,734
You find him first,
you get your money back,
248
00:13:26,906 --> 00:13:29,136
and you get to exact
whatever punishment you see fit.
249
00:13:29,308 --> 00:13:32,106
Blah, blah, blah, the video, please.
250
00:13:37,116 --> 00:13:39,914
Detective Bell,
I give you Trent Annunzio's murderer.
251
00:13:55,434 --> 00:13:57,766
Maybe it's me,
but to look at mug shots,
252
00:13:57,937 --> 00:13:59,996
don't you have to take time
to actually look at them?
253
00:14:00,172 --> 00:14:01,503
I am taking time.
254
00:14:01,674 --> 00:14:04,040
In each case,
I'm taking exactly the right amount
255
00:14:04,210 --> 00:14:07,976
to confirm that none of these men
killed Trent Annunzio.
256
00:14:10,349 --> 00:14:12,044
What is that? I asked for coffee.
257
00:14:12,218 --> 00:14:14,152
Well, you asked for coffee,
but you got tea.
258
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,880
No, I'm British. This is not tea.
259
00:14:17,089 --> 00:14:19,683
There's some traditional
Chinese herbs in there.
260
00:14:19,859 --> 00:14:22,623
I poked around the stalls in Chinatown
while I was waiting for you.
261
00:14:22,795 --> 00:14:23,819
I found the ingredients
262
00:14:23,996 --> 00:14:25,987
for the tea my mom used to make me
when I was sick.
263
00:14:26,165 --> 00:14:27,655
Well, all due respect to your mother,
264
00:14:27,833 --> 00:14:30,165
I would prefer something proven
by the scientific method.
265
00:14:30,336 --> 00:14:32,497
The herbs in that tea
have been proven scientifically
266
00:14:32,671 --> 00:14:36,004
to inhibit the movement of neutrophils,
improve the function of protective cilia,
267
00:14:36,175 --> 00:14:39,804
and contribute to longer-lasting,
more vasodilated erections.
268
00:14:39,979 --> 00:14:41,207
By your mother?
269
00:14:41,380 --> 00:14:42,904
Just shut up and drink it.
270
00:14:47,419 --> 00:14:48,545
What is that?
271
00:14:48,721 --> 00:14:51,053
It's the arrest report
from your former client, Liam Danow.
272
00:14:51,223 --> 00:14:52,383
I didn't tell you his name.
273
00:14:52,558 --> 00:14:55,356
You told me his crime, date of arrest,
sex of his victim.
274
00:14:55,527 --> 00:14:57,825
Consciously or not,
you knew I could put that together.
275
00:14:58,330 --> 00:14:59,820
I said I didn't want your help.
276
00:14:59,999 --> 00:15:01,591
Well, I haven't given it to you yet.
277
00:15:01,767 --> 00:15:03,496
I haven't even cracked the spine.
278
00:15:03,669 --> 00:15:07,332
I just thought you might want
all the facts at your disposal.
279
00:15:07,506 --> 00:15:08,564
What for?
280
00:15:08,741 --> 00:15:11,437
Well, it's rather difficult
to give up on someone completely.
281
00:15:12,211 --> 00:15:16,375
Harder if you are a professional
addiction counselor, I would imagine.
282
00:15:17,383 --> 00:15:19,044
I just thought you'd want to be sure.
283
00:15:19,585 --> 00:15:22,520
Hey, I finally found something
in the photo system.
284
00:15:22,688 --> 00:15:23,950
Raul Ramirez.
285
00:15:24,156 --> 00:15:26,590
Served stretches in Sing Sing
for rape and armed robbery.
286
00:15:26,759 --> 00:15:27,953
ESU and a couple of our guys
287
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,095
are headed over to his place
in Bushwick right now.
288
00:15:39,838 --> 00:15:41,032
This picture
289
00:15:42,107 --> 00:15:44,405
doesn't look good for you, Raul.
290
00:15:46,812 --> 00:15:50,077
These are the wallets you stole
from the mah-jongg parlor.
291
00:15:50,249 --> 00:15:52,740
We found them in your garbage.
292
00:15:53,352 --> 00:15:57,152
Oh. And of course, there's this.
293
00:15:57,323 --> 00:16:01,589
Trent Annunzio's wallet
covered in his dried blood.
294
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:05,821
Hook, line, sinker.
295
00:16:10,736 --> 00:16:12,636
What if I give somebody up
to you guys?
296
00:16:13,906 --> 00:16:16,966
Get some sort of a special
consideration or something?
297
00:16:17,142 --> 00:16:19,975
Well, I guess that depends.
298
00:16:20,145 --> 00:16:21,635
Who you talking about?
299
00:16:22,247 --> 00:16:23,646
Guy who hired me.
300
00:16:23,816 --> 00:16:26,080
You were hired to do what you did?
301
00:16:29,621 --> 00:16:32,215
Look, I get home one night last week,
okay?
302
00:16:32,758 --> 00:16:34,919
There's an envelope pushed
under my door.
303
00:16:35,094 --> 00:16:36,152
I look inside.
304
00:16:36,328 --> 00:16:38,853
It's a thousand dollars in cash.
305
00:16:39,031 --> 00:16:40,999
All of a sudden, my phone rings.
306
00:16:41,166 --> 00:16:44,033
Guy on the other end says
he knows me from the neighborhood.
307
00:16:44,236 --> 00:16:47,103
Says he knows about my rap sheet,
everything.
308
00:16:47,272 --> 00:16:48,967
Says he's got another nine grand
for me...
309
00:16:49,141 --> 00:16:51,439
If you kill Trent Annunzio.
310
00:16:52,745 --> 00:16:54,679
Not just kill him.
311
00:16:54,947 --> 00:16:57,108
Shoot him once in each eye.
312
00:16:57,282 --> 00:16:59,614
Did he say why he wanted him shot
in the eyes?
313
00:17:02,121 --> 00:17:03,554
Supposed to shoot him
tomorrow night
314
00:17:03,722 --> 00:17:06,156
when he walked to his car
from his office.
315
00:17:06,325 --> 00:17:09,556
Thing is, been trailing him
the past few days.
316
00:17:09,762 --> 00:17:11,662
Followed him
into that gambling parlor.
317
00:17:11,830 --> 00:17:14,128
Saw it was fat with cash.
318
00:17:14,299 --> 00:17:17,200
Figured if I saw him
go in there again...
319
00:17:17,703 --> 00:17:19,364
Two birds with one stone.
320
00:17:19,538 --> 00:17:21,972
Did you ever meet with this guy?
321
00:17:23,342 --> 00:17:25,207
He always just called or texted.
322
00:17:26,211 --> 00:17:28,873
His voice was real scrambled up
on the phone too.
323
00:17:30,983 --> 00:17:32,507
Check my cell phone.
324
00:17:32,684 --> 00:17:34,481
You'll see the pictures he sent me.
325
00:17:34,653 --> 00:17:36,848
Ramirez's story checks out so far.
326
00:17:37,022 --> 00:17:38,922
Someone texted him that
two days ago.
327
00:17:39,091 --> 00:17:41,355
Told him
where Annunzio parked too.
328
00:17:41,527 --> 00:17:44,553
I'm guessing the guy who hired him
used a disposable cell?
329
00:17:44,730 --> 00:17:45,754
Yeah, prepaid burner.
330
00:17:45,931 --> 00:17:48,399
Only calls incoming or outgoing
were to Ramirez.
331
00:17:48,567 --> 00:17:54,233
Okay, if this isn't random,
who had it in for this guy Annunzio?
332
00:17:55,307 --> 00:17:59,073
If it was the person who took
this picture, then it was a friend.
333
00:17:59,244 --> 00:18:01,075
Or a family member maybe?
334
00:18:01,246 --> 00:18:02,907
WATSON: Hmm.
- What?
335
00:18:03,082 --> 00:18:07,883
Um... No, it's just that the bottom left
of this photo, there's discoloration.
336
00:18:08,053 --> 00:18:12,012
There's a rectangle
where it's lighter.
337
00:18:15,127 --> 00:18:17,755
I must be sicker than I thought.
I don't know how I missed that.
338
00:18:18,263 --> 00:18:22,427
This is a reflection,
of a window judging by the shape of it,
339
00:18:22,601 --> 00:18:26,059
which means that this is a photograph
of a photograph.
340
00:18:26,238 --> 00:18:28,103
The original was under glass.
341
00:18:28,273 --> 00:18:29,968
The frame cropped out.
342
00:18:30,142 --> 00:18:31,871
There are framed photos
at the house.
343
00:18:32,044 --> 00:18:33,875
This wasn't taken at the house.
344
00:18:34,046 --> 00:18:37,311
See this shape?
Circle with a square inside it?
345
00:18:37,483 --> 00:18:39,007
That's a Chinese good luck charm
346
00:18:39,184 --> 00:18:44,486
that Annunzio kept
in the window of his office.
347
00:18:45,457 --> 00:18:49,120
So if Ramirez is telling the truth,
348
00:18:49,294 --> 00:18:53,628
all we gotta do is find someone
that had access to Annunzio's office
349
00:18:53,799 --> 00:18:56,962
and lives in Raul Ramirez's
neighborhood.
350
00:18:57,136 --> 00:18:59,969
I know someone
who fits that particular bill.
351
00:19:00,472 --> 00:19:01,939
This is ridiculous.
352
00:19:02,107 --> 00:19:04,974
I have never heard of Raul Ramirez.
353
00:19:05,144 --> 00:19:06,611
He lives two blocks away.
354
00:19:06,778 --> 00:19:08,575
Same block as your gym actually.
355
00:19:08,747 --> 00:19:10,214
How do you know where I go
to the gym?
356
00:19:10,382 --> 00:19:11,940
Your key chain.
357
00:19:12,117 --> 00:19:15,086
Noticed it earlier
when you let us into Annunzio's office.
358
00:19:15,254 --> 00:19:16,346
Might not have remembered it
359
00:19:16,522 --> 00:19:18,547
were it not
for that hideous aquamarine hue.
360
00:19:18,724 --> 00:19:20,419
Do you know how many people
live here?
361
00:19:20,592 --> 00:19:23,755
Not that many who blamed Trent
Annunzio for destroying their career.
362
00:19:23,929 --> 00:19:27,296
We know that you applied
for a full-time job at Berkeley.
363
00:19:27,466 --> 00:19:29,559
Three weeks back,
we know that Annunzio sent a letter
364
00:19:29,735 --> 00:19:30,997
to the head of the department.
365
00:19:31,170 --> 00:19:35,266
"While Mr. O'Brien does exhibit
a kind of Horatio Alger can-do spirit,
366
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,705
the sad truth is his work
has simply never developed.
367
00:19:38,911 --> 00:19:41,573
I cannot in good conscience
recommend him."
368
00:19:41,747 --> 00:19:44,807
How many years did you work
as Annunzio's T. A?
369
00:19:44,983 --> 00:19:46,280
Four.
370
00:19:46,451 --> 00:19:52,083
And I wasn't happy
he sandbagged me, obviously,
371
00:19:52,257 --> 00:19:53,281
but I didn't kill him.
372
00:19:53,458 --> 00:19:55,289
We found a draft on his computer,
373
00:19:55,460 --> 00:19:58,827
a letter of complaint he started writing
a few days ago to campus security.
374
00:19:58,997 --> 00:20:01,898
You threatened to make him pay
when you heard about the letter.
375
00:20:02,067 --> 00:20:03,830
This is Kafka-esque.
376
00:20:04,469 --> 00:20:05,493
We're academics.
377
00:20:05,671 --> 00:20:07,935
We write nasty letters
to the Paris Review
378
00:20:08,106 --> 00:20:10,301
when we get mad at each other.
We don't hire hit men.
379
00:20:10,475 --> 00:20:13,467
OFFICER:
Detective? You got a second?
380
00:20:13,645 --> 00:20:15,636
Wanna show you something.
Going through the bedroom.
381
00:20:15,814 --> 00:20:17,247
There's pink in your cheeks.
382
00:20:17,449 --> 00:20:19,815
You don't look clammy anymore.
383
00:20:19,985 --> 00:20:21,816
I haven't taken your temperature
or anything,
384
00:20:21,987 --> 00:20:24,649
- but to the naked eye, you look better.
- Well, I feel better.
385
00:20:24,823 --> 00:20:27,223
Must've been a weaker flu
than I thought.
386
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,224
Or the tea is working.
387
00:20:33,966 --> 00:20:35,194
BELL:
Got a burner phone.
388
00:20:35,367 --> 00:20:40,703
Mr. O'Brien, how do you think
Kafka would explain this?
389
00:20:41,406 --> 00:20:44,534
- I've never seen that before.
- Really? We found it under your bed.
390
00:20:44,710 --> 00:20:48,237
And it's only ever dialed
one phone number, Raul Ramirez.
391
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,246
- This ties you to Raul.
- Excuse me, captain?
392
00:20:52,117 --> 00:20:54,244
BELL:
This doesn't look good.
393
00:20:54,786 --> 00:20:57,254
Whatever it is, can it wait?
The guy's about to confess.
394
00:20:57,422 --> 00:20:58,582
I seriously doubt that.
395
00:20:58,757 --> 00:21:02,523
I'm starting to think if he had anything
at all to do with Annunzio's death.
396
00:21:02,694 --> 00:21:05,094
We just found the phone
that he used to contact Ramirez.
397
00:21:05,264 --> 00:21:06,959
But isn't the whole point
of a burner phone
398
00:21:07,132 --> 00:21:09,532
to burn it after you've used it?
Why hold on to it?
399
00:21:09,701 --> 00:21:11,566
Because he still needed
to reach Ramirez.
400
00:21:11,737 --> 00:21:14,262
Because he's an idiot.
You're overthinking this.
401
00:21:14,439 --> 00:21:16,202
Not everyone's
a criminal mastermind.
402
00:21:16,375 --> 00:21:19,811
Yes, true, but even so, he exhibited
absolutely no signs of distress
403
00:21:20,012 --> 00:21:22,242
when your men went to search
his bedroom.
404
00:21:22,414 --> 00:21:25,042
Now, even if he were stupid enough
to hold onto the phone,
405
00:21:25,217 --> 00:21:28,152
would he be stupid enough to forget
that he'd done so?
406
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,153
I don't know what you are talking
about, but you just missed the show.
407
00:21:31,323 --> 00:21:32,881
O'Brien just confessed to everything.
408
00:21:34,726 --> 00:21:36,660
Thank God for stupid people.
409
00:21:42,534 --> 00:21:44,399
BELL:This would be on the 12th?
O'BRIEN: Yes.
410
00:21:44,569 --> 00:21:46,594
That's right,
I contacted him on the 12th.
411
00:21:46,772 --> 00:21:49,332
BELL: And you told him
where he could find Trent Annunzio?
412
00:21:49,508 --> 00:21:51,499
O'BRIEN: Yeah, I told him
where he could find Trent
413
00:21:51,677 --> 00:21:53,838
- I told him everything...
- You're still watching this?
414
00:21:54,012 --> 00:21:56,606
It isn't right.
He's giving no corroborative detail.
415
00:21:56,782 --> 00:22:00,912
He's just rephrasing the questions
he's asked in the form of statements.
416
00:22:01,086 --> 00:22:03,680
"Mr. O'Brien, did you first attempt
to construct a massive robot
417
00:22:03,855 --> 00:22:04,913
to kill Trent Annunzio?"
418
00:22:05,090 --> 00:22:09,026
"Yes, I first attempted to construct
a massive robot to kill Trent Annunzio."
419
00:22:09,194 --> 00:22:11,321
You still don't think he did it?
420
00:22:12,130 --> 00:22:14,064
I'm not sure.
421
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,331
BELL:
What did you say?
422
00:22:16,501 --> 00:22:17,798
WATSON:
What's all this?
423
00:22:17,969 --> 00:22:22,133
HOLMES: These are Mr. O'Brien's
bank statements, some mail.
424
00:22:22,307 --> 00:22:24,332
It's anything and everything
that Captain Gregson
425
00:22:24,509 --> 00:22:27,706
would give me access to
before I left the station this evening.
426
00:22:27,879 --> 00:22:31,713
I was hoping that it would give me
more insight into the man, but so far...
427
00:22:31,883 --> 00:22:35,319
Well, he certainly downloaded
a lot of music.
428
00:22:35,487 --> 00:22:37,887
Over a hundred songs
last month alone.
429
00:22:38,056 --> 00:22:40,388
Almost exclusively bad.
430
00:22:40,592 --> 00:22:42,287
"My Heart Will Go On."
431
00:22:42,461 --> 00:22:44,986
I have a good mind to let him rot.
432
00:22:50,369 --> 00:22:51,768
[GRUNTS]
433
00:22:52,371 --> 00:22:54,532
Hey, I wanted to talk to you
about Liam.
434
00:22:54,706 --> 00:22:56,697
My brother-in-track-marked-arms?
435
00:22:56,875 --> 00:23:00,367
Yeah. I took the file that you dug up,
the one with the details of his arrest.
436
00:23:05,384 --> 00:23:06,976
That's Liam's.
437
00:23:07,686 --> 00:23:09,677
The damage would suggest
a pretty major collision,
438
00:23:09,855 --> 00:23:11,755
but when I saw him,
he didn't have a scratch.
439
00:23:11,923 --> 00:23:13,686
Now, if he'd been wearing a seat belt,
440
00:23:13,859 --> 00:23:15,486
I would have seen belt burn
on his neck.
441
00:23:15,660 --> 00:23:18,220
If he hadn't been wearing one,
he would have a contusion
442
00:23:18,397 --> 00:23:20,831
where his head hit the windshield
or steering wheel.
443
00:23:20,999 --> 00:23:24,662
He lives in Astoria. There have been
a series of joyrides there.
444
00:23:24,836 --> 00:23:28,704
The thief abandons the car afterwards,
but strips and pawns anything of value.
445
00:23:28,907 --> 00:23:32,741
The problem is, all of the cars
the joyrider stole were hotwired.
446
00:23:32,911 --> 00:23:36,403
Liam's was not. It says here the keys
were found in the ignition.
447
00:23:37,516 --> 00:23:39,006
WATSON: Said he sometimes
left them in the car.
448
00:23:39,184 --> 00:23:42,415
Another discrepancy:
Nothing was stripped or stolen.
449
00:23:43,889 --> 00:23:45,379
You know what?
450
00:23:45,557 --> 00:23:47,218
I gave Liam a Christmas present
one year.
451
00:23:47,392 --> 00:23:50,293
It was a silver key chain pendant
with a watch built in.
452
00:23:50,462 --> 00:23:52,293
You think something was stolen
after all?
453
00:23:52,464 --> 00:23:53,795
It looked expensive, but wasn't.
454
00:23:53,965 --> 00:23:56,456
Maybe the guy who stole the car
couldn't tell the difference.
455
00:23:56,668 --> 00:23:59,967
I would be remiss if I didn't point out
that Liam may have pawned it himself.
456
00:24:00,172 --> 00:24:03,300
We addicts are, as you know,
not a sentimental lot.
457
00:24:03,909 --> 00:24:05,467
Can I ask you something?
458
00:24:05,677 --> 00:24:08,976
How long were you working with Liam
before you started sleeping with him?
459
00:24:11,383 --> 00:24:14,147
Your disappointment in him
the other day seemed a little extreme.
460
00:24:14,319 --> 00:24:15,809
Especially for an addiction specialist
461
00:24:15,987 --> 00:24:18,387
who has no doubt seen clients
fall off the wagon before.
462
00:24:18,557 --> 00:24:21,890
And now to note the absence of a trifle
that you gave him years ago.
463
00:24:22,060 --> 00:24:25,154
No judgment. Just curiosity.
464
00:24:25,330 --> 00:24:27,821
I'm heading to Rikers
first thing tomorrow.
465
00:24:27,999 --> 00:24:29,626
You okay without me
for a few hours?
466
00:24:44,249 --> 00:24:47,275
I'm sorry, but I am confused.
467
00:24:47,452 --> 00:24:50,478
You think that Mr. O'Brien and I
were having an affair?
468
00:24:50,655 --> 00:24:53,681
These mix CDs,
the ones with your name on them.
469
00:24:53,859 --> 00:24:57,522
I realized last night
that they were made entirely
470
00:24:57,729 --> 00:25:00,926
from songs purchased by Mr. O'Brien
over the last few months.
471
00:25:01,099 --> 00:25:04,364
Almost entirely love songs.
472
00:25:05,871 --> 00:25:10,171
Not the grandest of romantic gestures,
but still,
473
00:25:10,342 --> 00:25:12,367
it's not like he could afford
expensive jewelry,
474
00:25:12,544 --> 00:25:13,772
not on a T.A.'s salary.
475
00:25:13,945 --> 00:25:16,106
Should have seen his face
when police found the phone
476
00:25:16,281 --> 00:25:19,341
that connected him to Trent's murder.
He was stunned.
477
00:25:19,518 --> 00:25:24,251
Probably because he had no idea that
the phone was in his home. Hmm?
478
00:25:26,791 --> 00:25:28,258
You put it there, didn't you?
479
00:25:28,426 --> 00:25:30,485
I don't know anything about a phone.
480
00:25:30,662 --> 00:25:33,153
There's one thing that still puzzles me
481
00:25:33,331 --> 00:25:35,196
is why he confessed.
482
00:25:35,367 --> 00:25:38,996
I've been racking my brain. I can only
come up with two possible answers.
483
00:25:39,170 --> 00:25:42,662
One, he thought you left it there
by mistake after a tryst,
484
00:25:42,841 --> 00:25:46,641
and you were planning to go back,
retrieve it, dispose of it,
485
00:25:46,811 --> 00:25:49,405
having no idea that the police
would recover it first.
486
00:25:49,581 --> 00:25:52,277
Two, he's the ultimate sap.
487
00:25:52,450 --> 00:25:56,580
He realized that you set him up,
but he loves you so much,
488
00:25:56,788 --> 00:25:58,949
he thought he'd just
take the fall anyway.
489
00:25:59,124 --> 00:26:02,184
Either way,
he comes off looking a bit dim.
490
00:26:02,894 --> 00:26:05,886
Please, I'd like you to leave now.
491
00:26:06,064 --> 00:26:09,522
If you have something to tell us,
the sooner, the better.
492
00:26:09,701 --> 00:26:12,226
Not just for Brendan O'Brien,
but for you.
493
00:26:17,642 --> 00:26:21,442
This is an old manual
given to Chinese political police.
494
00:26:21,613 --> 00:26:26,915
It teaches how to beat a suspect,
but leave no marks.
495
00:26:27,619 --> 00:26:31,885
He used these techniques to hurt me.
496
00:26:32,057 --> 00:26:36,118
And he also made me do things.
497
00:26:36,328 --> 00:26:39,764
Sex things, horrible things,
while he taped them.
498
00:26:40,599 --> 00:26:42,897
Let's say we believe you,
Mrs. Annunzio.
499
00:26:43,068 --> 00:26:44,763
That doesn't justify murder.
500
00:26:44,936 --> 00:26:50,067
I had nothing to do with Trent's death.
I don't believe Brendan did either.
501
00:26:50,241 --> 00:26:53,210
I can't explain how the phone
that was used to contact Trent's killer
502
00:26:53,378 --> 00:26:54,868
got into Brendan's apartment,

but I do know
he would never take a life.
504
00:26:57,782 --> 00:27:01,548
Respectfully, Mrs. Annunzio,
you've just told us that your husband
505
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,245
was a sadist and a pervert.
506
00:27:04,422 --> 00:27:08,483
Assuming that's true,
why would we trust your judgment?
507
00:27:11,396 --> 00:27:12,727
Trent was not my husband.
508
00:27:12,897 --> 00:27:14,558
He promised to marry me
when he asked me
509
00:27:14,733 --> 00:27:17,827
to come to America
with him several years ago.
510
00:27:18,003 --> 00:27:22,269
But then when we arrived here,
he went back on that promise.
511
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,604
He knew I could not go to the police
without revealing my status.
512
00:27:26,778 --> 00:27:28,643
I could be deported.
513
00:27:29,247 --> 00:27:31,408
And when did Brendan
come into the picture?
514
00:27:32,684 --> 00:27:36,950
He came to the house one day
to leave something for Trent.
515
00:27:37,389 --> 00:27:41,189
And he found me crying.
516
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:43,457
And he held me.
517
00:27:44,262 --> 00:27:46,355
When the time was right,
I was going to leave Trent,
518
00:27:46,531 --> 00:27:49,625
and Brendan and I
were going to marry.
519
00:27:49,801 --> 00:27:54,431
You told us that you lied to us
the other day,
520
00:27:54,606 --> 00:27:56,335
so why should we believe you now?
521
00:27:56,508 --> 00:27:57,634
The...
522
00:27:57,809 --> 00:27:59,504
The videos he made of me.
523
00:28:00,612 --> 00:28:03,581
He kept them all on this computer.
524
00:28:03,748 --> 00:28:06,182
There's even one
in which he beat me.
525
00:28:10,088 --> 00:28:13,455
Oh... They were... They were all here.
526
00:28:13,625 --> 00:28:16,822
Mrs. Annunzio, I think it's time
we took this back to the station.
527
00:28:22,967 --> 00:28:25,868
LIAM: I don't really get it. What exactly
am I supposed to be looking for?
528
00:28:26,037 --> 00:28:27,470
Anything out of the ordinary.
529
00:28:32,877 --> 00:28:35,869
I'm sorry about what I said to you
the other day.
530
00:28:36,648 --> 00:28:38,172
About you not treating me right.
531
00:28:38,349 --> 00:28:40,749
- It's fine.
- No, it's not fine.
532
00:28:42,554 --> 00:28:44,545
When I think about some of the things
that I did...
533
00:28:44,723 --> 00:28:47,886
It makes you crazy.
There are nights you wake up crying.

You wish you had it all
to do over again. You'd do it differently.
535
00:28:51,062 --> 00:28:55,396
We've had this conversation before.
You've apologized to me before.
536
00:28:55,767 --> 00:28:58,998
I know you feel sorry,
because if you didn't, why say it?
537
00:28:59,170 --> 00:29:02,071
What I've never understood is why
you don't put yourself in a position

00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:03,901
to stop apologizing to people.

- Whose computer is that?

00:29:39,144 --> 00:29:43,513
- It's Trent Annunzio's. Borrowing it.
- Why?
547
00:29:44,015 --> 00:29:45,744
Because

00:29:45,917 --> 00:29:48,385
I strongly suspect that it may once
have contained evidence
549
00:29:48,553 --> 00:29:50,953
that would prove Annunzio
abused his wife.

to be the case.

who hired Raul Ramirez to kill him.

I did.

That tea that you made the other day,
could you make some more of it?

tell us about her husband's brutality

00:30:42,607 --> 00:30:45,508
if she wasn't absolutely certain
that she could show us some proof?

He's just an ex.

You were romantically involved.
You just weren't his companion.
580

I met him on an ER rotation
back when I was still a resident.

Some lady got her purse snatched
in front of him.

He tackled the guy, the guy smashed
his skull with a bottle and ran off.

I gave him 39 stitches.

No, that came later.

Anyway, the upside
was that I learned a lot

about how to deal
with people like him.

this could hardly be a coincidence.

Everyone in it had red-eye

I didn't give it much thought,

00:34:20,725 --> 00:34:25,492
Problem was, he began to experience

Rotten luck or instant karma.
641
00:34:32,003 --> 00:34:35,905
Doesn't matter.
Annunzio was reeling.
642
00:34:36,074 --> 00:34:40,511
All he had left was his intellect
and his anger.
643
00:34:40,678 --> 00:34:43,613
So he devised a plan
that would not only exact revenge
644
00:34:43,781 --> 00:34:45,339
upon his wife and her lover,
645
00:34:45,516 --> 00:34:50,010
but also deliver him
from a slow and agonizing death.
646
00:34:50,188 --> 00:34:54,454
He found Raul Ramirez
and he hired him
647
00:34:55,026 --> 00:34:57,859
to be his very own executioner.
648
00:34:58,029 --> 00:35:00,020
After that, it was just a matter
of gaining access
649
00:35:00,198 --> 00:35:01,290
to O'Brien's apartment.
650
00:35:01,466 --> 00:35:03,434
Probably with a stolen key.
651
00:35:03,601 --> 00:35:05,933
He planted evidence
that would implicate O'Brien...
652
00:35:06,104 --> 00:35:08,732
The phone used to contact Ramirez.
653
00:35:08,906 --> 00:35:10,464
- And then
he writes a recommendation
654
00:35:10,641 --> 00:35:14,873
that he knows would demonstrate
that O'Brien has motive for murder.
655
00:35:15,046 --> 00:35:17,537
Now all that's left to do
is to destroy any evidence
656
00:35:17,715 --> 00:35:19,273
that might unravel his plans.
657
00:35:19,450 --> 00:35:22,715
Firstly, the incriminating videos
he keeps on his computer.
658
00:35:22,887 --> 00:35:25,879
Secondly, his eyes.
659
00:35:26,057 --> 00:35:29,788
They're proof that he faced
a long, horrible illness.
660
00:35:29,961 --> 00:35:32,395
And he can't risk anyone
discovering his condition.
661
00:35:32,563 --> 00:35:34,155
There may be
immediate questions asked
662
00:35:34,365 --> 00:35:36,595
as to whether
he arranged his own murder.
663
00:35:36,767 --> 00:35:40,328
The only thing he cannot account for
is the unpredictable nature
664
00:35:40,505 --> 00:35:41,767
of his would-be assassin.
665
00:35:41,939 --> 00:35:45,102
Ramirez was supposed to kill him
when he was on his way to his car.
666
00:35:45,276 --> 00:35:47,073
Instead, he kills him
ahead of schedule,
667
00:35:47,245 --> 00:35:49,179
and makes it look like
a robbery gone wrong.
668
00:35:49,380 --> 00:35:51,644
Now, that's the last thing
that he wanted.
669
00:35:51,816 --> 00:35:55,445
Annunzio wanted all fingers
pointed squarely at O'Brien.
670
00:35:57,421 --> 00:36:00,754
It's not a perfect theory, captain,
but it fits.
671
00:36:00,925 --> 00:36:05,362
I think that Annunzio's wife
and Mr. O'Brien may well be innocent.
672
00:36:05,530 --> 00:36:07,623
Well, let's pretend for a second
that you're right.
673
00:36:07,798 --> 00:36:11,632
We can't just cut O'Brien loose
based on a theory.
674
00:36:11,802 --> 00:36:15,260
Not with the phone in evidence,
and a signed confession.
675
00:36:15,439 --> 00:36:17,964
- What about Jun?
- We didn't have enough to hold her.
676
00:36:18,142 --> 00:36:19,837
We cut her loose to ICE.
677
00:36:20,011 --> 00:36:22,707
They already started
deportation proceedings.
678
00:36:22,914 --> 00:36:27,010
Now, I'm sorry. If you think this is all
part of a master plan
679
00:36:27,185 --> 00:36:31,815
concocted by the victim,
then it's a damn good one.
680
00:36:45,169 --> 00:36:48,297
- This is new.
- Old data, new location.
681
00:36:48,472 --> 00:36:52,408
- Thought it might jar something loose.
- Did you get any sleep last night?
682
00:36:52,577 --> 00:36:55,410
Hard to sleep knowing a psychopath
may have managed to ruin two lives
683
00:36:55,580 --> 00:36:56,979
from beyond the grave.
684
00:36:57,148 --> 00:37:00,549
Well, for some us, I suppose.
685
00:37:00,952 --> 00:37:03,716
Well, I am gonna have
to take a shower before I go to Rikers.
686
00:37:03,888 --> 00:37:05,446
Carry on.
687
00:37:07,458 --> 00:37:10,859
You weren't kidding when you said
O'Brien and Ramirez lived close.
688
00:37:11,028 --> 00:37:13,019
- All part of the frame-up.
- I know, it's just
689
00:37:13,197 --> 00:37:15,995
if I wanted to hire someone
from my neighborhood to kill you,
690
00:37:16,167 --> 00:37:18,226
how would I do it, go door to door?
691
00:37:18,402 --> 00:37:21,030
I'm just saying people who kill
for money aren't easy to find.
692
00:37:21,205 --> 00:37:23,173
Especially when you're limited
by geography.
693
00:37:23,341 --> 00:37:29,746
So if I wanted you dead,
how would I find my Raul Ramirez?
694
00:37:30,248 --> 00:37:32,375
You'd use a menu.
695
00:37:44,562 --> 00:37:46,496
WATSON:
Sex Offender Registry.
696
00:37:46,664 --> 00:37:50,065
You can't look up killers by locale,
but you can look up rapists.
697
00:37:50,234 --> 00:37:52,293
They're a subset of violent offenders.
698
00:37:52,503 --> 00:37:54,403
It's not a leap to imagine
699
00:37:54,572 --> 00:37:58,508
that they would consider
murder for hire if the price was right.
700
00:37:59,110 --> 00:38:03,604
You type in O'Brien's address,
find the nearest deviant.
701
00:38:04,582 --> 00:38:06,516
WATSON:
Only he wasn't the nearest one.
702
00:38:06,684 --> 00:38:08,549
There's another guy
whose name came up first.
703
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:10,414
Let's go back a screen.
704
00:38:11,122 --> 00:38:12,749
Dennis Kaminski.
705
00:38:14,158 --> 00:38:15,591
Multiple rape convictions.
706
00:38:16,227 --> 00:38:18,252
Set up hidden cameras
in women's restrooms.
707
00:38:18,429 --> 00:38:23,128
And his name came up first
because he lives in O'Brien's building.
708
00:38:23,401 --> 00:38:24,561
I don't get it.
709
00:38:24,735 --> 00:38:27,932
If Annunzio wanted to use proximity
to make O'Brien look guiltier,
710
00:38:28,105 --> 00:38:31,074
why didn't he go to this guy first?
711
00:38:31,676 --> 00:38:33,268
Who says he didn't?
712
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:38,607
LIAM:
I don't know what to say.
713
00:38:38,783 --> 00:38:41,513
You don't have to say anything.
714
00:38:41,686 --> 00:38:43,813
You didn't do
what the police said you did.
715
00:38:43,988 --> 00:38:47,321
Anyway, someone's gonna be here
to release you soon.
716
00:38:49,093 --> 00:38:51,084
Take care of yourself.
717
00:38:51,862 --> 00:38:53,591
That's it?
718
00:38:54,932 --> 00:38:56,194
I'm sorry, I guess I just...
719
00:38:56,367 --> 00:38:58,995
I don't know,
I expected a little more, uh,
720
00:39:01,005 --> 00:39:05,669
- disappointment.
- I let that go a long time ago.
721
00:39:06,610 --> 00:39:08,271
I wanna get clean, Joanie.
722
00:39:08,446 --> 00:39:10,277
- Liam.
- I mean it.
723
00:39:11,315 --> 00:39:14,341
I figured after everything you did
for me, I got to at least try, right?
724
00:39:14,852 --> 00:39:17,946
You're not supposed to do it for me,
you're supposed to do it for yourself.
725
00:39:18,522 --> 00:39:21,650
Thought maybe, I don't know,
you could find me a place to go.
726
00:39:23,661 --> 00:39:26,221
My friend runs the 59th Street clinic.
727
00:39:26,397 --> 00:39:29,025
If I call her now,
I'm sure she'll make room for you.
728
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:32,465
Like I said,
you have to do this for yourself.
729
00:39:32,636 --> 00:39:34,263
I'm not gonna be there
waiting for you.
730
00:39:41,512 --> 00:39:46,040
You mean to say Trent was behind
everything that happened?
731
00:39:46,751 --> 00:39:51,188
Before your husband
contracted Raul Ramirez to shoot him,
732
00:39:51,355 --> 00:39:55,052
he tried another man,
one Dennis Kaminski.
733
00:39:55,226 --> 00:39:58,889
Mr. Kaminski was more suspicious
of your husband's overtures
734
00:39:59,063 --> 00:40:00,087
than Mr. Ramirez.
735
00:40:00,264 --> 00:40:03,028
He also had more experience
with surveillance equipment.
736
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:06,192
Fearing that the police
were attempting to entrap him,
737
00:40:06,370 --> 00:40:08,201
he installed a small camera
738
00:40:08,372 --> 00:40:10,863
in the corridor
outside of his apartment.
739
00:40:11,041 --> 00:40:13,874
Next time he was contacted
by his mystery benefactor,
740
00:40:14,044 --> 00:40:16,877
he said it would require
a further $1000
741
00:40:17,047 --> 00:40:19,607
before he would even consider
the offer.
742
00:40:19,784 --> 00:40:24,585
The next day,
the camera recorded this.
743
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:30,559
Jun?
744
00:40:30,728 --> 00:40:31,752
What are you doing here?
745
00:40:32,363 --> 00:40:36,197
Well, thanks to this video,
Mr. O'Brien was just released,
746
00:40:36,367 --> 00:40:40,701
which is bully for him but doesn't
make you any more of a citizen.
747
00:40:40,871 --> 00:40:44,602
- I'm still going to be deported?
- Depends.
748
00:40:44,775 --> 00:40:46,470
Were you serious the other day
when you said
749
00:40:46,644 --> 00:40:50,341
that you two had discussed
the possibility of tying the knot?
750
00:40:50,981 --> 00:40:52,915
Because if you were,
751
00:40:53,083 --> 00:40:54,914
Captain Gregson
has reached out to a friend
752
00:40:55,085 --> 00:40:56,985
in the City Clerk's Office.
753
00:40:57,221 --> 00:41:02,090
I can't make any promises,
but my understanding is
754
00:41:02,259 --> 00:41:06,423
if you were to get married today,
that ICE will have to back off.
755
00:41:07,898 --> 00:41:11,595
It's not how I thought
we would do it, but sure.
756
00:41:21,345 --> 00:41:23,939
Good show, Mr. O'Brien.
757
00:41:45,803 --> 00:41:48,465
I texted you.
You didn't have to come.
758
00:41:48,639 --> 00:41:49,799
As I explained the other day,
759
00:41:49,974 --> 00:41:53,273
there's nothing more hazardous
to my health than boredom.
760
00:41:54,945 --> 00:41:58,437
Besides, I thought it might be nice
to meet the ex.
761
00:42:08,759 --> 00:42:11,057
I'm pretty sure he's not gonna show.
762
00:42:11,695 --> 00:42:14,027
Yet here you sit.
763
00:42:19,403 --> 00:42:21,667
I'll give him 10 more minutes.
764
00:42:24,375 --> 00:42:27,401
If there's someplace else you
have to be...
765
00:42:27,578 --> 00:42:29,569
Not tonight, Watson.
766
00:42:30,981 --> 00:42:32,881
Not tonight.
