Previously on The Divide:
You had falsify the DNA
and then you sent Terry Kucik to prison for 11 years for nothing?
Are you gonna cry over one little white boy? Hmm?
Now that I'm out, I got to find out what happened.
He's not supposed to be looking up old friends.
So what do I do?
I know Zale. If you go after his son,
he is going to expose everything...
Eric Zale was never called to testify
he was admitted for a 90-day rehab.
Clark?
_
- Hey. - Hey.
How's Clark?
Not great.
You okay?
Do you remember Pauline McDaniel?
Yeah, Emily's friend. Why?
Clark saw her.
She said that she remembers seeing you and Eric
on Halloween the month before the murders.
- Yeah, I remember. - Court documents say he was in rehab.
Well, then they lied, right? To cover it up.
I mean, so that's proof.
It's proof he had the opportunity.
But we need his DNA to go to trial.
And you need a warrant for that.
So I went to the DA, asked him for help.
So, will he do it?
I don't know.
He's a friend of Clark's. You'd think that would matter.
But he'd have to admit the convictions were wrong
and people like him don't do that.
So nothing happens at all?
I don't know.
Clark wasn't even awake when I got to the hospital.
He was just covered in blood.
And they really... they bashed his face in.
- It's because of me. - No, no, no, no.
Listen. Listen to me. Listen to me.
He's in there because of them, not you.
It's not your fault.
Look at me. It's not your fault.
I don't know if I can help you.
I know.
No. No, no.
No. No, no, no.
- I know. I'm sorry. - I'm sorry.
Sorry, I can't.
I can't.
Shit.
You want to meet me at the hospital to visit Clark?
I don't know. I don't know my schedule.
Adam, promise me you won't make a decision without talking to me.
I mean, I can help you figure all this out if you let me.
I just... please, we...
You okay, buddy?
Somebody call 9-1-1!
You okay, man? You okay?
Yeah, I'm okay. I'm okay.
- What happened? - I'm okay.
He just came out of nowhere.
Yeah?
- Hey. - Hey.
Did you stop by the hospital?
Yeah.
He's unstable, but conscious.
They stopped the bleeding, though.
How bad are the head wounds?
They'll know more later.
Did you get any sleep?
A little. I think.
Can't tell when I'm asleep or awake anymore.
- Hey, you okay? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm fine.
I just... I can't find...
Right where they always are.
So is the DA going to do anything?
He's going to "look into" the matter.
So probably nothing.
You know this wasn't your fault, right?
I know.
I've got to go to the office.
They don't know about Clark.
Listen, do you mind if I sack out here for a little bit?
Yeah, sure.
Hey.
Billie, what are you doing here?
We need to talk.
He told me, Isaiah. He told me everything.
And I'm not really interested in talking about the past
because I think you and I both agree what's done is done.
- We do. - And we know your son.
He's not always as practical as you and I.
He's not moving forward on this thing, is he?
I don't know. He hasn't told me.
All I care about is my family,
and I want to know what you're gonna do to protect them.
Billie, I'm gonna do what I've always done,
and that is everything that is in my power.
Even if that means stepping down as commissioner?
Even if that means bringing to the table
everything you know about Eric Zale?
Stanley will bring us all down.
No matter how you play this, Adam falls.
Stanley will say that he was in on it from the very beginning.
He's got campaign contribution reports
to prove that Adam had motive.
It'll be his word against ours.
I cannot protect Adam and your family
if we go after Eric Zale.
What are you doing here?
I wanted to talk to you without Mom around.
Look, I don't want to cause any trouble
and there's something I got to do.
It's not gonna fix anything, but it's gonna end it.
After I do this,
I'm probably not gonna be able to come back home.
So I just wanted to tell you that I'm real sorry
about everything you lost because of me.
You didn't deserve that. Neither did Mom.
Just tell me the truth.
Did you do that to that girl?
That family?
No, Dad.
You and Mom taught me better than that.
What do you want me to tell your mom?
Whatever you think is best.
Whoa, hey. Whoa, whoa, Dad. What happened?
I got hit by a car.
You... are you all right?
Do you need to go to a hospital?
No, no, no. It looks worse than it is.
I just want to sit.
- Can you... - Yeah, yeah.
- Here's a chair. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Ow! Ow!
I'm gonna be sore tomorrow, huh?
Ow.
Did you get the license?
No, it was my own fault.
I was in my head.
Here, take these.
All right, take this off.
I'm sorry, son.
About what?
I didn't notice you growing up.
I turned around and all of a sudden you're not a boy anymore.
I never meant to call you a fool.
You know I don't think that.
Yeah, I know.
And I know that's how some people could take it.
So I'm sorry.
You let them take it any way they want.
And write what you want.
I like hearing you speak it the way you see it.
- Thanks, Dad. - Yeah.
Hey, and don't be mad at Pops either.
He is who he is.
He had to fight for things that you and I, we don't have to fight for anymore.
Like you said, he's from a different world.
- Hi. - Can I help you?
Is this the Patients Rights Advocacy Center?
Yep.
Huh. Can you tell me exactly what you do here?
Uh, I'm not the guy to talk to.
This is my uncle's office.
He just pays me to man the phone.
- Does it ever ring? - Yeah.
But there's a voice-mail that answers.
Then I take down messages.
Do you want me to call my uncle? I think he's at work.
- Oh, so he doesn't work here? - He sells cars.
This is like a volunteer thing.
And what's he volunteering to do?
I have no idea.
Thanks.
Hey.
Christine's at the office.
Actually, I got some things I wanted to run by you.
- What's that? - These are notes.
Victor's case.
This hammer that Victor bought a week before the murder,
- do you remember why he bought that? - No.
I mean, he was always fixing, making things.
Made him feel better about me letting him
use the house for Christine on the weekends.
- Not that he needed to. - And where did he keep the tools?
In the garage. There was a workbench
that ran along the back wall.
Okay, well, would you mind if maybe I went over there and took a look?
Sure. Let me get you the keys.
This is to the back door.
It leads into the kitchen.
This is for the front gate
and this is the remote for the garage.
- Thank you. - Hmm.
You know, I give you a lot of credit.
I mean, you stuck by him all these years.
It's not like you got a ring on your finger to say you got to.
Well, there almost was.
The divorce and fighting for Christine wiped him out financially,
so he used to always tell me
that he couldn't afford to buy me a nice ring.
So he was gonna make me one.
I wouldn't have cared if it was a rubber band.
Listen, I know you probably can't tell me,
but are you finding anything that can help him?
Too early to tell.
I'm really worried he's not gonna make it to the next appeal.
- Why? - Christine didn't tell you what happened
- when we went to visit him? - No, what happened?
Well, when Mr. Page comes in, please tell him to call
Christine Rosa at the Initiative as soon as he can.
He has both my numbers.
Thank you.
Hi, this is Christine Rosa calling for Mr. Zale.
Rosa...
just tell him that Elizabeth Danner's granddaughter
is on the phone.
Hey.
Eric didn't tell me you had a shift today.
Oh, no, I don't. You know where he is?
That kid? He hasn't worked a Friday since he took over.
Beginning of the weekend for him.
Probably up at his old man's house in the country.
- All right. Thank you. - Sure.
Hi.
You look way too good for a construction site.
Offices have casual Fridays. I like to go the other way.
Yes, I can see that. It works.
Look, I feel like a bit of an idiot. Can you help me out?
Eric invited me to his dad's place for the weekend.
I just... I don't know how to use this phone.
Can you show me how to put in the address and get the directions up?
- Sure. Give it to me. - Thank you.
I'm not sure what the protocol is here,
but I'm sure you know that Stanley Zale is a client of mine.
Yes. Please have a seat.
Ms. Attorney General, do you have solid evidence
that Stanley Zale is funneling dark money
through non-for-profit organizations?
What makes you think we're investigating Stanley Zale?
He already knows you are. He's mentioned sources in this office.
Now I just broke attorney-client privilege
for the first time in my career.
With all due respect,
could you at least answer the question?
Well, all I can tell you is that we can't tie Zale's name
personally to any of the campaign donations,
but we do know it's his money.
If I were to come forward with information
about Stanley Zale that would help in your investigation,
would this office provide protection for me?
Does your husband know you're here, Mrs. Page?
No.
What are you offering?
Files and records.
Anything that would connect the dots to Stanley Zale
and these campaign funds.
I can promise I will make any charges
against you as lenient as possible.
No jail time, minimal penalties.
- But I would be disbarred? - Yes.
And your husband could be compromised
if he were aware of any of this before we publically file charges.
If you show me the evidence that you have on Stanley Zale,
I will help you get him.
- Miss Rosa. - Mr. Zale.
Thank you so much for squeezing me in.
No trouble. But I've only got a few minutes.
Car's waiting downstairs. I'm flying to DC.
What can I do for you?
Well, it's about the Terry Kucik case.
- Yes? - You knew Terry, didn't you?
He was friends with your son?
Oh, yes, yes. Good kid.
One of the few friends my son had that I approved of.
His father's construction company and I
did a lot of work in this town together.
I know. I was hoping I could meet with Eric.
About what?
Well, I know he wasn't able to testify for Terry during the first trial.
That's right.
But now that we're hoping to have a retrial,
we'd like to call him as a character witness for Terry.
I remember you saying something
about the killer still being out there.
My son can't help you there.
I don't want him getting mixed up in all that.
No, no, no, no, of course not.
We do know now that Jared was the real killer.
All we're trying to do is overturn Terry's conviction as an accomplice.
But wasn't he also convicted of rape?
We're putting together witnesses that can prove
that Terry was in a relationship with Emily Butler.
Nobody believed it at the trial.
That's one of the reasons why we'd like Eric on the record.
So why come to me? You could subpoena my son.
Mr. Zale,
I grew up around very powerful people.
I spoke to my grandmother about you.
I know I don't have a chance in hell
of speaking to your son until you give the okay.
I figured I'd save some time.
Well, let me speak with him.
But on Monday when I'm back from DC. I'll let you know.
- Thank you so much. - You're very welcome.
Give my best to your grandmother.
I will.
This is Stanley Zale calling for Judge Reynolds.
No, I won't hold. Get him on the phone.
What happened to your head?
I was out taking a run and I fell.
You've decided, huh?
You're going to reopen the case.
Gonna ask the judge to get a warrant for Eric Zale's DNA.
You're gonna need probable cause.
I may have enough to keep you out of it.
I don't give a damn about me.
Think about what you are giving up.
I will try to keep you out of it as long as I can,
but I will not be controlled in this investigation
as well as you controlled the first.
All right.
When it comes, I will assume full responsibility.
But Stanley Zale is gonna drag you all through this.
A son for a son.
That's the hold he had over me.
Now, we can fight him.
We can fight him together.
You are really something.
Everything you taught me.
You yourself taught me a way of seeing the world
where the only thing I could think about what you did
would be disgust and condemnation.
But what courage you have, Pops.
It shines right off you.
Even when you're 100% wrong.
You might be right about color.
But we're way past that now.
One of us has to take a step forward
'cause I will not have my son looking at me the way I'm looking at you.
You do what you got to do.
- Yeah? - Christine, it's Vanessa.
We just got a call from the home detention officer.
- Terry's gone off the grid. - What?
- Do they know where he is? - He's moving.
They think he's in a vehicle heading north on Route 95.
You have gone beyond designated perimeter.
Stop movement. Notify your PO immediately.
- Can I help you? - I'm looking for Eric Zale.
- He's not here. - Do you know where I can find him?
Yeah. Who are you?
Was Terry Kucik here today?
Why? Are you his girlfriend?
No, I need to know where Eric is.
Please just tell me. It's very important.
Okay, you're gonna need to take some of the crazy out of my reception area.
- I need to know right now. - I'm calling the foreman.
- I don't have time for this. - Then leave.
I don't work for you.
All right. All right.
Call the foreman.
Yeah, like I said.
It was my idea.
How did you do this? I'm not allowed visitors.
I had to pull my last favor.
I went over to Maxine's in Huntington Valley.
- You went to the house? - Yeah.
You had quite a nice setup in the garage.
Quite the do-it-yourself guy, huh?
Well, I'm not much of anything right now.
In the trial you stated that you bought that hammer
in order to fix a kid's bike.
Did you ever end up fixing that?
No, I never got around to that.
Okay.
You wanted to marry Maxine, didn't you?
I can't say I blame you. She's a great woman.
Yeah, so?
Yeah, so.
Every day I listen to Christine.
Every day she worries about you.
And every day she is desperate to get you out of here and back home with her.
So I'm just sitting there thinking I've got to help.
Oh, you're trying to help?
So I'm thinking "crime of passion,"
"jealousy" for your ex-wife
when you got a woman like Maxine
that you want so bad that you are willing
to make her a wedding band.
I met that family.
Not my kind of people.
Not yours either, I'd imagine.
I can see people like that getting just about anything
they want to work out just the way they want.
And they didn't want you near Christine, did they?
No, she was one of theirs.
So what is it? What happened?
Did they not want you with Christine?
Did they set you up?
Or did you do it, Victor?
You know what?
No matter what you do,
no matter what Christine does,
death is who I live with.
We're partners in here.
And it teaches me things.
You're getting a little mad now.
Not because you think I did it or they did it.
You're mad because you were looking for a way to save me
so you could bring Christine a present.
Because maybe you think that's the only way
you can keep hold of her.
But you don't have one.
No present for Christine.
If you think the only way to hold onto her
is by helping me,
then you should just let her go
'cause you can't help me.
And she needs someone who is strong enough
to see her through that.
You have gone beyond designated perimeter.
Stop movement. Notify your PO...
Oh, this is trippy.
- What's up? - Terry?
Hey, what are you doing here, man?
Hey, man. I just drove out here,
you know, on the chance you might let me in.
Are you gonna let me in?
Are you even allowed to be here?
Obviously, yeah, you're completely welcome.
- Thank you. - But aren't they gonna know you're here?
I don't want you to do anything illegal.
Oh, no, no, no. I get three free hours a week.
Anyway, I'm not gonna stay long.
Okay.
Uh, I'll get you a beer.
Are you allowed to have beer?
At this point, I don't think it's gonna cause a problem.
Wow, man, this place is amazing.
Your dad's company worked on it.
It was one of the last jobs he did.
Yeah, well, Dad always hired good guys to work for him.
Come on, you gonna have another beer?
I'm sober, man.
Eric, buddy, come on.
I could smell it on you when I walked in through the door.
It's only a beer, right?
It's not like I'm gonna tell anybody.
Come on, you never used to let me drink alone.
- Come on. - Okay, okay, okay.
Okay.
What do you want?
I just want to hang, you know?
You have gone beyond designated perimeter.
Stop movement. Notify your PO immediately.
Oh, wow!
I need a break. You know what I mean?
- Cheers to you. - Cheers.
You have gone beyond designated perimeter.
Damn, that thing has to chill.
She's got a sexy voice, though.
I think if you poured some tequila on her,
she'd get a little lubed up, she'll come out.
- That is hysterical. - She's feeling left out.
This feels so good.
Can you get your dad to make a call about this thing?
I mean, if the cops show up, man, I'm...
Dad can totally take care of it. Don't worry.
You're not doing anything wrong.
I mean, you're visiting me, right?
Right.
Do you know what my dad told me?
And this is freaky, but my dad told me
he has more connections than the president.
Did you ever hear that thing where...
that the world really isn't run by governments...
- Yeah, yeah. - or presidents or laws?
The world is really run by this handful of guys that no one knows about,
these handful of guys in the shadows.
I think my dad's one.
I would believe that.
- Yeah. - I would absolutely believe that.
- All right, come on. - Yes!
- Rack 'em up. - Yes.
Look, man, I don't want to be a bad influence here.
You know what I mean? It's not gonna cause any trouble?
- You're not gonna go crazy on me, are you? - No. No. Listen.
Listen, the drinking I can handle.
Drinking... I never had a problem with drinking.
The drugs... it's drugs I had a problem with.
I admit that.
But with these rehab programs,
you can't... you can't, like, tell them
I won't do meth, but I'm not giving up tequila.
It's, like, an all-inclusive package.
You got to give up everything.
But everyone cheats.
This just feels so good.
Hang on, wait. You really got into meth?
I mean, come on. Even when we were hanging out?
I was doing everything, man.
Blow, X, meth,
ice, which is still meth.
I tried crack for a while.
I didn't like heroin.
It just made me sleepy.
But on ice and blow,
I would go for days.
It was crazy.
It was an incredible feeling, you know?
It was, oh, my God.
It's like... it's like you're Superman.
Like I had all these powers in me.
And I knew I had them all along, but it was, like, hidden.
And I did this drug and it just...
I could feel the power flow through you.
And it was just...
but it just definitely got out of hand.
So what made you go to rehab?
I miss this, man.
I miss hanging out like this.
How rough was it in prison?
It was pretty shit.
- Yeah? - Yeah, I'm not gonna lie, man.
- It was shit. - You make any friends or...
No one I'd go on vacation with.
You know what I mean?
No one I'd share a condo with.
How weird is it about Jared, right?
- Yeah. - I mean, executed.
We actually know a guy who was executed.
I mean, that's... not many people can say that.
That is an intense thing.
Jared was really stupid.
A really nice guy, but stupid.
- Why? - He told me his plan.
Do you know what his plan was?
No weapons. He would just burst in there like he's a Goodfella.
Find the mom, scare her into giving him shit.
Like, scare her with a beating.
I said you need a weapon or she's gonna kick your ass.
I mean, she was tough.
But Jared was really bad with guns.
So, what, did you use knives?
Just to scare them. Just to...
That's what you wanted to hear, right?
That's why you came here?
It's cool. I get it.
You're not wearing a wire or anything.
It won't matter what I said.
No, no, it's not gonna matter what I said.
I got more in the freezer.
Looks like that thing stopped.
I wonder why.
Here we go.
There's nothing you can do now.
I just wanted to know what happened.
Honestly, this is gonna
sound like complete whatever.
I don't know.
I just, like, snapped.
Remember that time we were working on that house
and that bitch yelled at me for stepping on her patio tiles?
I mean, it's an outdoor patio, it gets dirty.
She just forgot who she was.
Just got out of hand.
Jared... Jared said the husband wasn't gonna be there.
Idiot.
I thought it was only gonna be the mother.
What about Emily?
Honestly, dude, I...
I...
I can't remember.
I get these flashes, these images.
Then it gets to a point and I don't... I don't remember.
It was the drugs.
I know that.
It wasn't me.
You think that's the cops?
I don't care.
I'll deny everything I said.
I know.
You don't need to worry, man.
You know, my dad can still help you stay out of prison.
He can do that.
He can also put you back.
I really...
oh, I really missed this.
Honestly.
- Hi. - Hi.
I was wondering if Terry was here.
- You the police? - No, just a friend.
Awesome. Come on in.
- I'm Eric. - Hi.
How'd you know he was here?
Oh, your foreman and your receptionist.
Christine, what are you doing here?
- I came to take you back. - You want a shot?
- Oh, no, thanks. - Terry, you want another one?
No, man. Maybe I should go home now.
It's still early.
He shouldn't be here.
His ankle thing stopped. How come?
Oh, I finally got a hold of the home detention officer.
I told him you were with me, but he's already sending police to arrest you.
Oh, the police are coming?
Dad's gonna be pissed.
Well, if I take you in my car and we get you out of here,
the police will follow us.
That's really nice of you.
You're that girl from that place.
Yeah, man, the one I was telling you about.
Yeah.
Looks like your ride's here, buddy.
Terry, listen...
Hi.
Terry Kucik.
- You're under arrest. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Can I get you something to drink? - No, thanks.
- Something to eat? - No, I'm good.
- You sure? - Yeah, I've got to go.
- Really? - Yeah, it's been fun, though.
You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say...
Terry, I'll be right behind you in my car.
Come on.
You... God!
