The shooter is a Black male wearing a yellow Tobin hoodie.
Could be a troubled student, that's why he ran on campus.
Maybe, but so far, none of the kids recognize him.

Manny Hayesman, 23 years old.
His last-known is in East Hartford, Connecticut,

Yeah, he played for one of the only
New Zealand teams in the league.

to shooting up a school in Queens?
I don't know. He's not listed
as a student at Tobin, but he does have a prior,
a misdemeanor drug possession
two months ago in East Hartford.
Okay, I just spoke to Campus PD.
They said that the Wolf Den is a known hangout
where students go to buy drugs.
I take it we're not talking speed and Adderall.
More like Molly, ecstasy, coke.
Okay, so maybe this is a drug deal gone wrong.
So not a school shooting,
something that spiraled out of control.

that Manny didn't start firing until after
the off-duty cop charged at him.

He doesn't have any,

Manny doesn't keep much in his bedroom.
He hardly comes around these days,

I wish a lot of things.
Manny had his eyes set on the NBA,
hundred-million-dollar contract,
you know, mansion in Miami.
What happened to the big NBA dream?
Manny didn't stick with it long enough to find out.
What that boy had in talent he lacked in resilience.
Just the smallest setback,
and he would think the world was over.
What kind of setbacks?
Getting recruited by Central Kansas University
was supposed to be his ticket.
He had an offer with a full ride.
But they pulled it at the last minute.
Did they ever say why?
They never said, but what I told him,
just go to community college.
You know, get your grades up, try to transfer in later.
But all he could see was dollar signs.
So he decided to go pro just like that.
My brother was a big fan when he played in New Zealand.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'd hoped that would be a fresh start.
And it was, until he blew his knee out in practice.
See, with Manny, it's either basketball or bust.
When he got back from New Zealand,
I couldn't reach him.

Manny was a hell of a player.
Not a bad kid at heart, just had a horrible attitude.
Horrible in what way?
He always thought he knew what was best,
forgot it was a team sport.
He's been back from New Zealand about a year now,
but he doesn't spend much time at home.
Where would he hang out?
I have no idea.
We didn't keep in touch,
you know, and it hurts.
All those hours together, you know?

Like I said, horrible attitude.
They probably looked at the tape again
and saw too many blowups on the court.
I mean, you can get away with that stuff in high school,
especially if you're the star player.
But in college, they won't put up with that crap.
You've had one hell of a career.
Yeah, I've, uh-- I've been blessed.
Honestly, though, it's not the wins that stay with you,

That's--that's why it's a damn shame.
Thanks for your time.
Thanks.
Yeah, no, I've known Manny since he was in middle school.
Oh, there's no juvie record on file.
I knew him because he was the eighth grader
breaking state records on the basketball court.
So all of a sudden, this student who's on
the straight and narrow gets busted for possession?
Well, Manny's name came up in an NYPD investigation
of a drug ring in Queens.
One of the dealers fingered Manny as a weed supplier,
just small-town stuff.
Listen, uh, I-I know Manny,
and he wasn't some hard gangbanger.
When the NYPD called us, I couldn't ignore it, but, um--
You felt bad for him and downgraded the charge
from distribution to possession?

on his feet, but I never would have done it
if I thought he might become violent.
Who gave the NYPD Manny's name?
Uh, Cody Benson. He's a bartender from Queens.
What bar?
The Wolf Den.

The NCAA used to make all of the money
off the talent of the players, all right?
But the athletes were students, so they can't get paid.
They weren't allowed to make money off of their hard work.

He thought if he did well in New Zealand,
he could transfer back to an NBA team here.
Which wasn't the case?
No way.
He was damaged goods.
Everybody named in the bribery scandal was.
What scandal?
Summer of 2019,
right before Manny was about to go to Central Kansas,
there was a task force investigating coaches
who were bribing prospects to commit to their colleges.
And not just coaches-- it was also sponsors,
agents, financial managers.
A lot of people got kickbacks for hooking up top talent.
High school prospects aren't even supposed to talk
to those folks, including agents.
W-well, no deals were made, just introductions.
[chuckles] The rules were about to change,
and everyone saw the writing on the wall.
And how was Manny involved with this scandal?
Did he take a bribe for attending CKU?
It looked like it.
When he was a high school senior,
he busted a tooth in a game and had to get an implant.
It turns out Manny's coach at CKU
paid that dental bill for him.
How much are we talking?
Not much, maybe four or five grand.
But a bribe's a bribe.
And Manny didn't know about any of this until today?
That's what he said.
I remember CKU quietly removed that coach
and withdrew their offers to all his recruits.
They ghosted those kids like we did to Manny.
How did the cops even find out about the dental payment?
The coach at Central Kansas copped to it.

called him and asked him to, uh, cover it as a favor.

nothing about Walter Felstone from Ottawa came up.
Yeah, but none of this explains
why Manny is targeting Coach.
He's not.
Walt was always the target.
Think about it.
Coach adopts Walt thinking that he's gonna get
some of Walt's riches, and he doesn't.
Then two months ago,
Coach gets an even bigger slap in the face.
Walt basically writes him out of his will--
after everything Coach has done for him.
Yeah, I'm sure that pissed him off.
But Walt did make Coach the executor of his will, right?
- Right. - Under New York law,
the executor gets a commission for overseeing the will.
It's a percentage of the total estate value.
And given what Walt is worth, we're talking big-ass money.
Yeah, that's a big-ass reason to want Walt dead.
That's where Manny comes in.
Coach was never about his players being family.
He uses them, exploits them-- probably even jealous of them.
And he goes to Manny and manipulates this poor kid.
He knew he was back from New Zealand,
injured, hopeless, depressed, broke.
He goes to him, and he says, if you kill Walt,
I'll give you a cut of the executor's fee to do it.
All right, so they're both thinking
Walt got his, they need to get theirs.
You're saying that Manny and the coach are working together,
and they staged this kidnapping?
I'd bet the damn farm on it.
Walt has a game tonight.
He's live streaming right now.
Tobin Nation!
We're about to hit the road for Providence,
and the mood is hype.
Not only that, look who showed up to send us off,
one of my biggest fans. - [laughing]
What's the good word, Coach Nathan?
♪
[laughs] I just came by to wish you luck.
I remember the first time I saw you tomahawk dunk
over that big man, I knew-- - Drop the phone.
Drop the phone!
You two are coming with me. - Hey, don't move!
Don't move! - Drop the gun!
Drop it. - Drop it, or I'll shoot him.
♪
Come around. Come around.
Manny's holding the gun, but Coach is calling the shots.
He doesn't know we're on to him.
This was part of the plan, but the live stream wasn't.
He's pretending to be Manny's hostage
so they can get Walt alone and kill him.
Yeah, then they'll probably turn on each other.
As far as Coach knows, we still think he's the victim.
Let's play him like a fiddle.

He-help! He showed up in my house!
Get back, get back! Hands on your head!
Manny, I'm Special Agent Remy Scott of the FBI.
I need you to take a breath
and slow everything way down, son.
As long as Walt stays, nobody gets hurt.
Let's start by letting everyone else go.
Only the guys on the bus.
Everyone else stays. All right?
You got it. Ray.
Come on. Go. Off the bus.
Go. Come on. Let's go.
Listen to me, Manny.
All the adults in your life
who were supposed to help you handle the pressure,
they let you down instead.
We're all family here, Coach.
Why don't you tell Manny what you were so worried about
when the cops came sniffing around about that bribe to CKU?
Wh-what the hell are you talking about?
Walt's from Canada.
Coach legally adopted him
so he could become a U.S. citizen
and make all that name, image, and likeness money.
And you and Manny were gonna get Walt alone.
And then you were gonna kill him.
And you were gonna turn the tables on Manny
and murder him, right, Coach?
And we'd believe you, right?
Poor Coach Nathan just defending himself
against a wanted killer.
You didn't think we'd figure out you're their coach.
So what?
People have done worse for less.
- [scoffs] - I discovered the kid.
I put him on the path of fame and fortune.
I don't deserve a piece of the pie?
And you, you owe me everything.
Instead you cut me out of your will
and make me your damn executor.
♪
[whispers] I trusted you.
I trusted you more than my pops!
You said it was our goal for me to make it to the NBA!
It was our goal.
And you spoiled brats would never give me my due.
And for all the sacrifices I've made for you--
for all my players.
What, do you--you think postgame shout-outs and--
and postcards pay the bills?
Because of you, my life is over, Coach.
Here's a news flash.
Your life was over when your knee blew out.
Yeah, it's over,
but on my terms for once.
Let's go. Let's go!

Put the gun down, son.
Put it down.

Call an ambulance.
Okay, thanks.
Coach didn't make it, and Manny's on his way to jail.
I feel so bad for this kid Walt, though.
Well, he has a $2 million shoe contract.
Maybe he'll be okay.
I don't get that.
I mean, we tell these kids,
go get the brass ring, and then they do,
and we vilify them and let the system screw them over.
It just makes no sense.
Yeah, let them get what they earn, right?
Yeah.
Sucks, though. His adoption secret is out now.
We love to forgive our stars and athletes,
and he's both.
Hey, how you doing? You okay?
Yeah, I'm okay.
Just having a hard time with Charlotte.
She's not replying to my texts.
I know the feeling.
What'd you think of Dr. Fairweather?
You guys get to go see her yet?
Yeah, we had a session. I'm sorry, she was great.
Thank you.
It's just been hard, you know?
It's been really hard.
Yeah.
If you ever need to talk, I'm here.
Thanks.
Hey, Remy.
You want to grab a drink?
I don't really feel like going home right now.
I'd love to.
We're both willing to do the therapy,
so we're obviously both still in it.
- Mm. - That's what I'm trying
to hang onto right now.
Well, take it from me, as excellent
as Dr. Fairweather is, it's still gonna take time.
- Yeah. - And given my track record,
I don't think you want marriage advice from me.
[chuckles] That is true.
I imagine it's not too different from what makes
our team work so damn well together, you know,
good communication, honesty, knowing your weaknesses,
bringing your strengths to the table.
- That's all it is. - Hmm.
Look, I know how tough family can be.
My nephew Corey has been staying with me and--
[sighs] I just don't get it.
I mean, this dumbass kid was this close
to graduating med school, and he just drops out.
He drops out, or he just takes some time off
to get a little break?
I don't think he even knows.
I might trust him to figure things out if he had a plan,
but when I leave in the morning for work, he's still sleeping.
When I come home at night, he's out God knows where.
- Yeah. - I told him to get
a part-time job, but he doesn't listen.
Try to give him some structure.
He's driving me nuts.
And I don't know why he doesn't put his dirty socks
in the hamper. - [laughs]
- If this is parenting... - Oh, yeah.
[scoffs] Sucks.
Well, why don't you just be honest with him?
Tell him how you feel,
about the good stuff and the hard stuff.
Then maybe try to remember what you both have in common...
Mikey.
- Yeah. - Another round?
Yeah. How about a couple of menus?
I'm starving.
You okay with eating at the bar?
You kidding me? It's my favorite.
Me too.
Cheers.
