The red light's on.
That
means we're ready, yeah?
Yes.
Would you tell us why and how
a psychic becomes a CBI agent?
I'm not a psychic.
No
such things as psychics.
And he's not a CBI
agent.
He's a consultant.
Big difference.
"No such thing as psychics.
"
Uh, care to elaborate?
Uh, no, not particularly.
Um, you know what?
This-- this is not--
This is not a good idea, I don't think.
Um, it's not a good idea.
Okay.
Um, maybe we'll-- we'll
come back to that later.
Uh, how do your cases usually start?
Uh, a case begins with
us getting a phone call
from the AG's office to
lead an investigation.
In the St.
Clare homicide,
the local DA wanted us on it
because there were
political issues involved.
And how did the local cops feel
bout your-- your
team coming in?
We get along extremely
well with our local partners
in law enforcement, yeah.
My people can handle this, no problem.
California Bureau of
Interference is what you are.
- Interference? That's witty.
- Stay out of this.
I'm sure your people are
competent, Chief Donner.
We're simply following the AG's orders.
Screw the AG.
This case
is going to be in the news,
and you people are
spotlight hogs.
That's all.
I assure
you, chief--
Don't waste your time.
His anger
runs deeper than you can reach.
Seriously, don't start trouble here.
It's the last thing we need.
The victim is Martha
St.
Clare, 34--
Media relations coordinator
for the mayor of this town.
Mayor was here to break
ground on a new development,
- dug up her PR flack instead.
- Ouch.
Yeah, victim was stabbed
twice in the chest,
but there's no blood here.
Killed elsewhere.
Home.
Her nails are
done.
Her hair's done.
This woman doesn't wear
sweatpants anywhere but at home.
Cho, have Van Pelt check it out.
The killer wanted the
body to be discovered here
under the glare of the cameras.
And likely came here to watch the fuss.
- Likely.
- Maybe the camera crews caught something.
We'll need to have them look into it.
There's bruises on her arms.
Looks like something
was ripped off her neck
- during the struggle.
- Is he sniffing her?
- Yes.
- You pay him to sniff people?
- Apparently.
- She's been smoking.
The nicotine patch on her arm
says she was trying to quit.
- So under stress of late.
- Well, case closed.
Stress got a knife and
stabbed her to death.
He's on a roll.
You're on a roll.
Cheap soap.
Unironed
shirt.
Stomach pains.
Recent loss of weight.
I'm
gonna take a wild guess here.
You're angry and unhappy
'cause you're living in a motel
because your wife found
out about the woman
you're having an affair with
that you don't even care for.
You're a seething
mass of self-loathing,
and understandably so.
You son of a ***!
Chief Donner, my apologies.
He was completely out of line.
Let-- let's just get
back to the body.
Sir?
We've closed more cases than
any other unit in the CBI,
but we don't keep score that way.
It's not a contest.
And you--
you also lead
in the number of complaints
and lawsuits filed.
Okay, hold it.
I thought we had an agreement.
Brenda, a word.
Jane's right.
This isn't a good idea.
I thought this was supposed
to be positive coverage.
It is! It will be.
If we're
open and honest about the issues,
ihe positivity follows.
That's PR 101.
We're trying to solve a
woman's *** here, Brenda.
We don't have time to waste on PR.
Teresa, you know that we have
been crucified by the media
ever since Bosco and his team
were killed here in our own house.
When KTQZ asked me for access yesterday,
I jumped at it, and
the deputy AG concurred.
Who is this guy anyway?
Totally legit TV investigative reporter.
Mike Brewster.
He has been covering the
central valley for years.
We need this, Teresa.
Please.
- Work with us.
- He stays out of my way.
He can film in the
office and in the bullpen,
- but not out in the field.
- Thank you.
Seriously, thank you.
You won't be sorry.
And it's
a two-way street, Agent Lisbon.
If there's anything I can do for you
There is one thing.
Okay, so this is the
footage Steve and I grabbed
of the groundbreaking.
That's the Mayor--
Melba Walker Shannon.
She plays up the folksy image,
but she can be tough as
nails if she needs to be.
Nice shoes.
Chip?
No, thanks.
Who's the
rich guy next to the mayor?
Oh, that's Heaton Krupp.
He's the private
developer on the project--
off the record, a prize jerk.
Who are those people?
Tree huggers.
The project's going up
on the edge of some reclaimed land.
You mean protected wildlands.
You say "potato.
"
You have any other
footage of the crowds?
Not really.
Other networks might,
but gaining access can be tricky.
It'd be good to get a
different perspective.
- Cho, see if you can get the footage.
- You got it.
All right, that's Wilson Fonteneau,
the mayor's flunky, and
here comes the money shot.
Whew.
These are from the victim's home.
Besides the signs of a scuffle,
the only thing that seemed to be
missing was the victim's laptop.
- The murderer probably took it.
- Check out this necklace.
From the photos, it looks
like she wore it a lot.
You think it could have
made the mark on her neck?
Could be.
When you go to the apartment,
- do a targeted search.
- The necklace is long gone.
My guess-- the killer
made a souvenir of it.
- Go.
- Okay.
Where we going?
Mayor's office.
I don't have any problem
being in charge, no.
I mean, maybe at first for a while,
as a woman, it was a challenge,
but the demands of the job take over.
Yeah.
Tell me about your weekends.
You want to know what
I do on my weekends?
Yeah.
Why do you want to know that?
I mean, I have no problem having
a life, if that's what you mean.
I don't know why anybody
would say otherwise--
If they do say otherwise.
Um, I'm sorry.
What were we talking about?
Sorry for the delay.
The mayor's just finishing
up another meeting.
It's been a crazy day
around here.
Can I help you?
Oh, no, I'm fine.
Thanks.
Mr.
Fonteneau, did you work
closely with Martha St.
Clare?
For 16 months.
Martha
hired me, actually.
We noticed in a lot
of recent photographs
that she had a-a necklace
on with a beautiful stone.
Yes, a topaz, I think.
It was her birthstone.
She got it Christmas of last
year and never took it off.
Do you know who gave it to her?
- No.
- She had a lot of
meetings, even on weekends--
Business interests,
community groups, book club.
Tomorrow is a big day.
She has a star
and 3 exclamation marks at 11:00.
Yes.
Uh, she scheduled a briefing
with the city council.
On what subject?
I don't know, to be
honest.
The mayor will know.
Was she dating anyone?
A social
life-- Martha?
No, she had a cat.
Ah.
Yes.
See?
- But it died.
- Right.
Excuse me.
Are you the CBI Agents?
Mayor, thank you for seeing us.
Happy to help, and please call me Melba.
Like the toast?
Just like it.
This way.
Can you tell us about
your construction project
that you were opening yesterday?
It's the Granton Complex,
yes.
We are very proud of it.
It's office and retail
space plus housing,
all built with the
latest green technology.
And what was Martha's
involvement in the project?
None, really.
She
She was my media liaison.
She was not engaged in policy issues.
Then what was she gonna talk
about at city council tomorrow?
Oh, a press junket.
It was
river rafting, I believe.
Chief Donner says your office
has received several threats
from environmental activists.
Activists? No, they're terrorists.
They burned down vacation
condos up on the mountain.
They destroyed luxury car
lots just one town over.
They're led by a madman,
and he calls himself Jasper.
Excuse me.
Wilson, anything else can wait.
The threats?
Yes.
Um
the Granton development
is an abomination--
A hundred acres of
pristine wildlands razed,
an entire ecosystem endangered.
It must stop.
It will stop, no matter
what needs to be done.
My name is Jasper, and I am legion.
Come on.
"I am legion.
" that's just silly.
- Silly?
- Yeah.
- He murdered Martha.
- Well, you assume.
Yes, I do.
The body was buried
at the site, for God's sake.
And that is a clear message, isn't it?
Melba, why would he kill
Martha and not kill you?
It'd be a bigger publicity coup.
Excuse me?
Uh What Mr.
Jane is trying to
ask is whether there was somebody
with a more direct personal
grudge against Martha.
- Yeah.
- No.
She was a lovely--
was a lovely person.
Oh, then why did you
dislike her so much?
I didn't dislike Martha.
Why would I employ
someone that I don't like?
That's a very good
question.
When you said it,
your jaw tensed and your
eyes went empty like a cobra.
Wilson!
I'm not saying you killed her.
I'm just saying that you're
relieved that she's dead.
These people will be leaving now.
Oh, I like the way you say
that, Melba-like-the-toast--
So tough and commanding.
Let me tell you something.
We are state law
enforcement, and we leave
when we want to leave.
Thank you for your time.
She wants to leave.
See yah.
You blew my cool.
I swear, sometimes I
think you need medication.
It's like you've got ADD or something.
Well, "A," I'm not so
sure that ADD even exists,
and "B," I was winding
her up for a reason.
Which is?
A diversion.
The message
the aide brought in
made her nervous, so I took it.
You're stealing now?
Well, let's just call it purloining.
What does it say?
It says "your 3:00 meeting
has now been moved to 3:15.
"
I'm just kidding.
It says, "9-1-1.
Call
now.
Urgent.
About Martha.
"
From Heaton Krupp.
The developer of the Granton project.
Oh, yeah.
Do you enjoy police work?
Mm
Patrick?
Uh, yeah, I'm thinking.
Uh, mm, yes and no.
Uh, yeah, sometimes.
Sometimes not.
Forget it, Steve.
Why do you so dislike being filmed?
Uh
'Cause you're stealing my soul.
So I called the mayor.
So what?
I'm building a $20 million
complex in her town.
- I call her a lot.
- About ms.
St.
Clare?
About when I can start
construction again.
This is costing me hundreds
of thousands of dollars.
It cost ms.
St.
Clare a lot more.
And I'm sorry about that.
I am.
But there's
nothing I can do about it.
Martha would have wanted us to go on.
You knew her well enough to know that?
You're right.
I'm being pious.
Maybe Martha would
have said, "screw it.
"
I knew her not at all
outside of business.
Really?
'Cause we just got
her cell phone records,
and you called her ten times yesterday.
You want to tell us what you wanted
to talk about so urgently?
Seems I should get my lawyer,
have him sit in with us.
Sure.
That's your right.
Tell him to bring all your
permits for the Granton project.
- My permits?
- Why? Why not?
And we should make sure this
stays an active crime scene--
Keep everyone out until
the case is solved.
Could take weeks.
See we were talking
about money, okay?
$10 million in public
funds was to be released
when we broke ground.
Then
I heard rumors that St.
Clare
was planning to tell the
city council to withhold them.
Why?
I don't know! I mean, that's
what I was trying to find out.
But St.
Clare was killed before
she could talk to the city council.
Yes,
but--
So the $10 million will
come to you after all.
What are you-- are you
trying to lay this on me?
Because you're messing
with the wrong guy, officer!
We're not officers.
We're Agents.
That's quite a temper you got there.
Look out!
Get down, get down! Get on the floor!
Help!
I got the door! Go, go, go, go!
I got the door!
Aah! I got you.
This was done by someone who
knew what he or she was doing.
Crackpot Jasper.
He's a terrorist,
and you ain't doing
jack to catch him, chief.
I'm in charge of the
town of Salter, Mr.
Krupp,
not the outlying areas.
Jasper's never launched an
attack here in town before.
Until now.
Hey! Check this out.
Apparently, this is the
same tag that Jasper used
in the attack on the condos.
- It's good just here?
- That's great.
Uh, I've been in fires before.
I worked with the, uh,
arson squad in San Diego
for a couple years, so I'm
not unfamiliar with the issues.
It's never pleasant, though.
Um, I mean,
when you're--
When you're in it, it's--
there's no time to think.
But-- but
afterwards, well
Yeah.
It can make you think.
There was a
There was a moment there where, uh
Yeah, makes you think.
It's a gift, isn't it?
Life.
You should be grateful for it
Make the most of it.
We have to catch this guy
before he kills someone else.
He hasn't killed anyone yet.
Not Martha St.
Clare?
Eh.
Martha St.
Clare was
about to stall the development.
That exactly what Jasper
wants.
So why kill her?
Maybe he didn't know
Martha's intentions.
But the mayor must have
known.
Let's go see her.
Yeah.
You guys look into
this Jasper character.
Don't bother.
He's a red herring.
What does that mean,
anyway-- a red herring?
A red herring is what you look in to
regardless of what Jane tells you.
Anything on the networks' footage?
They've been
throwing up hurdles--
Something about first amendment issues.
Get the footage.
I'm tired
of hearing their excuses.
We ID somebody in the
crowd, maybe we get lucky.
Yes, boss.
Why am I a detective?
Why are you a reporter?
What?
Why are you making this documentary?
It's a fresh perspective
on law enforcement.
No, I mean, what's in it for you?
Well, uh, scoring this exclusive
is a good way to get noticed.
So you're ambitious.
How long
you been doing the news here?
- About eight years.
- Anchor?
Mostly fieldwork.
So you're ambitious, but
you haven't gotten very far.
I, uh, I guess that's about it, yeah.
You don't like being
asked questions, do you?
The team as a whole seems
to have a problem with that.
Is that a question?
- Mike, if I can interrupt here?
- Yeah.
We're clear.
Uh, there's coffee in the
kitchen, John.
I'm so sorry.
Agent Cho?
Yeah?
It is the specific
request of the deputy AG
that your unit cooperate
fully with the media.
What's your point?
Ohh.
Mayor Shannon, we need to talk.
Of course.
I have a
meeting.
Please make it fast.
Sure.
How big was your
bribe from Heaton Krupp?
That is an outrageous slander.
You sold your approval
of the Granton project.
Martha found out.
She
was gonna reveal it
at the city council meeting,
which you said was gonna be
about river rafting, of all things.
River rafting-- from
where did you pull that?
You better have really
good personal lawyers.
If you pursue this
absurd line of harassment,
I will hang you by your heels.
Did you get a slice, too, or
are you strictly wage labor?
I-- your superiors will
hear from our lawyers.
Oh, don't bother with lawyers.
It's such a waste of taxpayer dollars.
Just confess.
You'll feel a lot better.
In actuality, you have no
proof of this so-called bribery.
Uh, none at all.
Are all CBI Agents this incompetent?
Have you even bothered to
check her lover as a suspect?
First you say it was Jasper.
Now it's the lover that did it.
You gonna make up your mind?
What lover? We understood
she had no social life.
I didn't know she did.
Oh, well, she did, and competent
police would have known that.
Why didn't you tell us this earlier?
Why don't I just do your job
for you? How would that be?
Oh, just please arrest her or something.
Nothing to hold her on.
Eh.
Eh.
I'm the rookie on the team.
Been here 18 months now.
Um, it's hard work,
but this has been my dream
ever since I was a kid--
to be a Detective.
And what's been the
most surprising thing
you've learned about this job you do?
I've
learned a lot about myself
As well as about
other people--
stuff I wish I didn't know sometimes.
Stuff like
Why people do bad things to one another.
It's mainly because of secrets.
Trying to hide the truth
chips away at your spirit.
Secrets ruin relationships.
We finally got the footage
from every news station
covering the groundbreaking ceremony.
Apparently, threats work.
These are two separate
vantage points of the mayor,
and these are feeds of the crowd.
There--
that guy.
Can you narrow it down for us?
There's, like, 50 guys there.
The guy in the crowd there--
After the mayor digs up the victim.
He certainly doesn't look
like he fits in.
Jane.
Oh, that's bold.
A Jasper acolyte.
Or the man himself.
Get with the local PD see
if they can identify him.
- What is it?
- Nothing.
Just hungry.
So we went back to
St.
Clare's apartment,
went through her closet
and realized that some
- of her work shirts--
- Button on the right.
Yeah, and not her size.
So the mayor was right.
She did have a lover.
Of course she had a lover.
That necklace she always wore
was obviously a romantic gift.
She'd never spend that
kind of money on herself.
Now you say so.
Very wise in hindsight.
Well, I thought it went without saying.
It's horribly obvious when
people are in a relationship--
Impossible to hide,
try though they might.
She was a very attractive woman.
I would not be surprised
if she had two lovers.
There is nothing here.
I'm gonna go out for lunch.
Turn that thing off, or I
will shove it down your throat.
Let's take a walk, shall we?
Come on.
I know it hasn't been the
most pleasant experience
having a camera crew here.
But you gotta cooperate--
deputy AG's orders.
Yeah.
So what's the deal? I would
think out of everybody,
you'd be the most
comfortable with the cameras.
Mm.
Last time I was in front of a camera,
things, uh, didn't turn out so well.
Oh, God, Jane, I'm sorry.
You don't need to be
sorry, and you're right.
There's no reason not to be
civil.
I'm going to apologize.
Hey, I'm sorry.
We didn't
mean to be intrusive.
No, I-I shouldn't have snapped at you.
I'm sorry.
I just-- I
don't like feeling spied on.
It's my own little neurosis.
You're just doing your job, right?
- Right.
- Well, let me buy you a taco.
- Sure.
- I know you're in.
- I am kind of hungry.
- That's the spirit.
I know the perfect place.
V�monos.
Muchas gracias.
- Mike.
- Thank you.
Steve.
So tell me about news gathering.
Whoa! Whoa!
Did you get that? Did you get it?
Keep moving.
Let's go.
I don't know where we're going,
but I hope there's a bathroom.
I am busting.
Ohh.
Definitely Jasper.
The description of the van
matches one seen near the condo fire
and the luxury car lot Jasper destroyed.
How long has Chief Donner
had this information?
- Contact the local and the county PD.
- On it.
We got a hit on the Jasper associate
at the groundbreaking ceremony.
Local activists draw
the line at kidnapping.
They gave this guy up fast.
Bart Henrik.
On his blog, he
calls himself a green warrior.
He's been arrested several
times for inciting a riot,
public disorder and vandalism.
- Go find him.
Take Rigsby.
- You got it.
Step.
I can see you mean business.
Uh, there's no need for
firearms.
I'm not Harry Houdini.
Quiet.
Thank you.
So you're Jasper.
Well, I'm honored.
Please don't say you
kidnapped me for ransom,
because I-I doubt you'll get
$50, let alone save the whales.
No ransom.
In actuality,
just a simple message--
I did not kill Martha St.
Clare
and I didn't throw that
firebomb in Krupp's office.
Now you-- you are gonna
tell that to the police
and to the media.
So you kidnapped me to
proclaim your innocence.
Have you ever heard of a phone?
Oh, yeah.
I see.
If you kidnap me, and
I pass on the message,
then you get a blast of
that publicity that you love.
If I am branded a killer,
everything I have fought
for is discredited.
People support me because I have
respect for all living things.
Yes.
Yes, but it's a good rule of thumb
to avoid doing things that
require you to wear a mask.
And you're such a handsome fellow, too.
How'd you know I'm handsome?
Well, I was just speaking figuratively.
No, you weren't.
You know who I am.
No, I have no idea.
Leave us and don't come back.
No, he doesn't have
to go anywhere.
I-I-I--
Will you listen to
me? I have no idea--
- You could be Elvis Presley, for all I know.
- How did you know?
- I don't know.
- How did you
Please don't do that.
Pl--
How did you know?
Well, what's not to know?
Your height, your body language,
your syntax.
You said "in actuality.
"
I mean, who-- who
says "in actuality"?
Yes.
Yeah.
Very clever.
So now we have a problem.
Get that thing out of my face!
Jasper kidnapped our
colleague.
Where are they?
Jasper who?
Did you know you can get more
time for kidnapping than ***?
That's crazy, right?
And being an accessory after the fact
makes you just as guilty as Jasper.
Man, Jasper's avenging
mother earth.
That's all.
- You know him well enough to be sure of his motives.
- Yes.
You know him so well you can
tell us where he might be.
Even if I knew, which I don't,
I would never betray Jasper.
"Never" is a big word.
Try me.
What would Jane want us to
do in this situation, Cho?
With his life in jeopardy?
You know what he'd want us to do.
Yep.
Okay.
I guess we have to go there.
We should call an
ambulance.
It's procedure.
Sure.
They can set it fast, and we
can get straight back to questioning.
Wait.
Set what?
Your arm-- you broke it,
slipped on the stairs.
Yeah, you should be
more careful, Henrik.
Hey.
Hey.
A bunch of people
saw me come in here fine.
A bunch of cops, and I'm one of them.
I saw you fall.
And every cop in this building
will say exactly the same.
A cabin in the Sierra foothills,
Nice work.
What to do?
What to do?
If I let you go now, you'll rat me out.
If I may make a suggestion?
No, you may not.
Please, Wilson.
I can help.
I cannot go to prison.
I need to finish my work.
Don't you see?
I do.
I see.
Your
work is very important.
But what I don't understand, though,
is why you were working
in the mayor's office.
Where better to study the enemy
than from within their very camp?
Did you know that the mayor
was taking bribes from
the developer Krupp?
Of course.
Who do you
think put Martha onto it?
Ah.
You told her.
But why not expose the mayor
yourself or do it as Jasper?
They would know that Jasper
was inside the mayor's office.
They would soon suspect me.
I work in the shadows.
That's why I am still
here, still fighting.
I understand.
Let me help you.
Don't try to play me.
Don't go saying you won't
tell on me if I set you free,
because I know you will.
Wilson, I am not trying to
play you.
I will not play you.
I understand and respect
your intelligence.
Have a seat.
Just take a moment.
Wilson, look at me.
I can help you.
How?
Look at me.
You can see that I'm telling the truth.
I want what
you want--
Peace and harmony.
Peace
quiet
It's easy.
You can have it.
If you want it, you can have it.
So peaceful.
This is Chief Donner of the
Salter Police Department!
You're surrounded.
Come
out with your hands up!
Stay cool.
Just stay cool.
Go.
Clear!
This is a trap door.
I'm good.
I got him.
I got him.
- Lisbon?
- J- Jane.
Wow.
I'm impressed.
How the hell did you find me out here?
Right, because we're lost without you?
Well, I wouldn't say that,
but I'm still impressed.
Wait.
I--
don't move.
Ohh.
They could have
***-trapped the place.
We'll have the bomb
squad take a look at you.
What? You're kidding.
You're kidding.
I'm-- I'm thankful
and all that,
but just get me out of here,
and I'll tell you the story.
What story?
- So we know who Jasper is
- Fonteneau.
No trace of him.
Slipped right
through the locals' hands.
He's one man, for crying out loud.
Well, he obviously knows
those woods a lot better.
Jane, enough recovery time.
Tell us about Fonteneau.
What'd he say?
Well, he spouted a lot
of nonsense, denial.
Truth is, he took the
job in the mayor's office
to plan targeted attacks on
new developments around town.
He and St.
Clare became lovers.
Secret boyfriend.
But when St.
Clare found out
about Fonteneau's secret life as Jasper,
he killed her for it, to keep her quiet.
I'll check on the warrant
for Fonteneau's place.
Get everybody briefed,
suited up and ready to roll.
Oh, look for St.
Clare's necklace.
It was a gift from Fonteneau.
My guess-- he took it when
he killed her.
We need it.
You guys sit on the location
until the warrant comes in.
Chief Donner? Yeah, I-it's Lisbon.
Oh, I need some aspirin.
Yeah, I-I just wanted--
could you hold on, chief?
Look, that's enough,
guys.
We're done filming.
You know, catching the bad guy would be
a great end of the show, make
you guys look like superstars.
Well, it'd certainly make
the deputy AG very happy.
True.
All right.
You can film the bust,
But you have to do exactly what I say.
- Deal.
- Meet me at Fonteneau's at 0600 hours.
- Yes, ma'am.
- Hey.
Chief, we're gonna need assistance
from your entry team again.
What now?
We set a perimeter and
wait for the warrant.
Yeah, there's a lot
of this kind of stuff.
Not too many car chases.
Maybe we could, uh, ask a few
questions while we're waiting?
Uh
Sure.
If you must.
Um, how did you come
to work with the CBI?
You know how.
Yes, but I-I need you
to say it to the camera.
Yeah, yeah.
I-I see.
I got it.
Um
Well, I came to work with the CBI
after my wife and child were murdered.
Have you ever experienced
loss like that?
A loss of love?
There's nothing more
important than love, is there?
Well, we're talking about you.
Yeah.
It can be very hard when love goes away.
It's like a a betrayal,
almost like a violent act, right?
Right?
I guess.
Um, why don't-- why
don't we go back to, um--
When you give someone your
heart and they throw it aside,
it's natural to be angry.
Especially when you've
come to rely on them,
when your career is tied to theirs.
I don't know
what you're, uh--
- Why don't you show us what you got in your pockets?
- What?
- You heard me.
- No.
Why not?
Because you don't have the right.
Okay.
Okay.
I'll tell you what
you have in your pocket,
and you tell me if I'm right.
In your pocket, you have
a blue topaz necklace
that you once gave to Martha St.
Clare
when you were lovers.
You took that necklace
back after you killed her.
You were gonna plant
it in Fonteneau's house,
prompted by my cunningly brilliant ruse.
Aha.
Aha.
That's it.
I don't know how that got in there.
Oh, please.
Don't be so
silly.
Arrest him, Cho.
Get on your knees.
Put
your hands on your head.
Now!
Get up.
That's for you.
And this
is for me.
Here it comes.
***.
There.
You looked away.
Martha St.
Clare's body
hasn't been revealed,
and you looked away, because
you knew what was gonna happen,
because you buried that
body at that building site
and you firebombed the trailer
to try and frame Jasper.
You're too clever, Mike,
you're just too clever.
Nah.
You spout a lot of theory,
- but no legal proof.
- Ah.
You want legal proof?
The lab reports came back.
They found traces of Martha's
blood in the trunk of your car.
Do you want to tell us what happened?
Rumors said the mayor was dirty,
but there was no proof.
I knew something was up.
But no matter how much I pushed her,
martha wouldn't say anything.
Nothing.
And last night,
I was going through her computer,
just checking on some stuff, you know?
I found this speech she
was preparing to give,
exposing the mayor as corrupt,
With
proof--
Facts and figures, the whole deal.
And she kept it from me the whole time.
This is a story that
could have made my career.
I have been waiting for a
story like this my whole life.
And she's mad 'cause I'm
on her computer.
Hello.
So she
She said, uh, she couldn't trust
me anymore and that it was over.
The argument escalated,
and, uh, I took my necklace back.
And then she starts taunting me,
You know, implying that
I don't have what it takes
to be in the big leagues anyway,
saying I'm a loser.
She's had enough?
She's had enough? She has?
No, no, no, no.
I've had enough.
Me!
Well
We'll take that as a confession.
In a stunning revelation,
mayor Melba Walker Shannon
has been arrested by the
DA for corruption charges
Oh, yeah.
Stemming from the Granton
at Salter development.
The accuser is her closest
aide, Wilson Fonteneau,
who agreed to testify against the mayor
in exchange for leniency
regarding his activities
as eco-terrorist "Jasper.
"
This only the latest development
in a bizarre story of *** and greed
that has captivated the central valley.
Hey.
I was enjoying that.
Ugh.
I hate how they
overdramatize everything.
Yeah, I hate that.
"Captivated the central valley.
"
- Give me a break.
- Doughnuts.
Thanks.
Ladies first.
So, uh, guys?
Uh, I have something to say.
We have something to say.
Uh, life's too short
for dishonesty Van Pelt--
Grace and I are lovers.
No, you're not.
Um, yes, we are.
No, you are not lovers.
Uh, but we are, though.
No, you're not, because
a *** relationship
between two fellow bureau employees is
strictly against the rules.
Which is why we kept it a secret.
But we don't want to live a lie anymore.
Come what may.
Well, it's a big secret.
Well-kept.
Well, maybe you knew,
but nobody else did.
- I knew.
Half the building knows.
- They do not.
The only person that didn't
know is glaring at you right now.
And now I have to do something about it.
- What are you gonna do?
- Yeah, what are you gonna do?
I'm thinking.
Go.
