1
00:00:06,510 --> 00:00:07,510
<i> Previously on Wild Cards.</i>

2
00:00:08,010 --> 00:00:09,080
Vivienne?

3
00:00:09,180 --> 00:00:10,050
<i> Where have you been
for the past 15 years?</i>

4
00:00:11,140 --> 00:00:13,110
I have been on
the run from Gedeon Varga.

5
00:00:13,750 --> 00:00:14,880
I love Jessica,

6
00:00:14,980 --> 00:00:17,020
but it doesn’t mean I should
have to choose between her

7
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:17,990
and my best friend.

8
00:00:18,080 --> 00:00:18,950
Who are you?

9
00:00:19,050 --> 00:00:20,120
This is Tomo Hayashi.

10
00:00:21,150 --> 00:00:22,050
You are going
to steal us a diamond.

11
00:00:23,260 --> 00:00:23,960
I know how we’re going
to get the diamond out.

12
00:00:24,060 --> 00:00:25,130
- How?
- With magic.

13
00:00:39,740 --> 00:00:41,010
Good morning.

14
00:00:41,110 --> 00:00:42,610
That’s funny.
I didn’t hear the doorbell.

15
00:00:42,710 --> 00:00:44,780
Oh, you really should
get that lock upgraded.

16
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:46,980
I’ve got it down
to three seconds flat.

17
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:50,780
Mhm. Ah, coffee.
Thank goodness.

18
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,150
I hope it’s not that
hazelnut nonsense.

19
00:00:54,190 --> 00:00:55,120
We got that French roast
that you like.

20
00:00:55,220 --> 00:00:56,690
Question for you.
Who is...

21
00:00:57,260 --> 00:00:59,200
Dan Vartel?

22
00:00:59,290 --> 00:01:02,130
Oh, this lovely
real estate agent I met.

23
00:01:02,900 --> 00:01:03,670
Why is it on my fridge?

24
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:04,890
Are you looking
to buy something?

25
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,000
No. To sell.

26
00:01:06,100 --> 00:01:07,870
- Uh, sugar?
- Left cabinet.

27
00:01:07,970 --> 00:01:10,040
Do you own a property
that I don’t know about?

28
00:01:10,140 --> 00:01:11,240
Because if you do,

29
00:01:11,340 --> 00:01:13,040
I’m sure the coffee over there
would be really good.

30
00:01:13,140 --> 00:01:15,680
No, it’s for you
to sell this pied-à-terre.

31
00:01:15,780 --> 00:01:17,980
You should always have a sale
in place before a big job.

32
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,020
- But this is my home.
- No, it’s a trap.

33
00:01:20,110 --> 00:01:22,710
You set down roots
and then

34
00:01:22,820 --> 00:01:24,790
you wake up one morning
and realize

35
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,720
you’ve been living next to
the same people for 25 years.

36
00:01:28,820 --> 00:01:31,120
Same faces,
same casserole smells,

37
00:01:31,860 --> 00:01:32,790
same tedious book clubs.

38
00:01:32,890 --> 00:01:34,230
That’s not freedom, darling.

39
00:01:34,330 --> 00:01:37,270
That is just captivity
with better drapes.

40
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,060
Some people would
call that stability, Mom.

41
00:01:40,170 --> 00:01:43,140
"Stability". That’s just fear
wearing pearls.

42
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,010
Trust me, I was born into it.

43
00:01:45,110 --> 00:01:48,750
Family estates, summer homes,
portraits of long dead relatives

44
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,140
staring down at you
every dinner.

45
00:01:51,110 --> 00:01:52,180
I gave that all up
for your father.

46
00:01:52,980 --> 00:01:53,780
And the thrill of the con.

47
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,880
And I have never
once regretted it.

48
00:01:55,980 --> 00:01:56,850
I loved it, too.

49
00:01:56,950 --> 00:02:00,250
But... this is my home.

50
00:02:00,350 --> 00:02:01,590
My life.

51
00:02:01,690 --> 00:02:04,090
We must be prepared to leave
in a moment’s notice,

52
00:02:04,190 --> 00:02:06,090
especially given the current
circumstances.

53
00:02:06,190 --> 00:02:09,260
So give him a call.
He’s also very cute.

54
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,130
Maybe a sale and a fling might
help ease the transition.

55
00:02:13,230 --> 00:02:15,100
Okay, I’d love to stay
and chat,

56
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,270
but I have
a police charity event today,

57
00:02:17,370 --> 00:02:19,710
and I have no idea
what I’m gonna wear.

58
00:02:19,810 --> 00:02:20,610
Why didn’t you tell me?

59
00:02:20,710 --> 00:02:22,880
I have already
been in your closet,

60
00:02:22,980 --> 00:02:25,250
but I’m sure we can
find something acceptable

61
00:02:25,850 --> 00:02:26,980
for you to wear.

62
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,150
All right. You just
make sure that champagne

63
00:02:30,250 --> 00:02:31,890
is chilling
by the time we get there.

64
00:02:31,990 --> 00:02:33,230
No, you the man.

65
00:02:33,850 --> 00:02:35,090
Hot dog, Yates.

66
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,720
That fit is... fitting.

67
00:02:38,830 --> 00:02:40,100
Thank you.

68
00:02:40,190 --> 00:02:42,560
Had to crush a housewife’s toe
just to get it on Black Friday.

69
00:02:43,330 --> 00:02:44,770
Wow. Looking good, Chief.

70
00:02:44,860 --> 00:02:47,000
Thank you.
As do you both.

71
00:02:47,100 --> 00:02:48,870
- Standing pants?
- Oh, yeah. Of course.

72
00:02:48,970 --> 00:02:50,140
- Same.
- Standing pants?

73
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,240
Yeah. Trim fit,
knife edge crease.

74
00:02:52,340 --> 00:02:54,010
Pants that look great
standing up, but

75
00:02:54,110 --> 00:02:55,750
too tight
to sit in comfortably.

76
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:56,810
As opposed to sitting pants,

77
00:02:56,910 --> 00:02:58,180
when you’re sitting
around working all day.

78
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,120
Oh, well, I just hope
that you two

79
00:03:00,210 --> 00:03:01,880
have been practicing
your photo wall poses.

80
00:03:02,650 --> 00:03:03,920
- Bam!
- Watch out now.

81
00:03:04,020 --> 00:03:05,290
Because I’ve been
practicing mine all week.

82
00:03:06,450 --> 00:03:07,280
I think I might get
discovered tonight, boys.

83
00:03:07,390 --> 00:03:08,520
Yeah. You will.

84
00:03:08,620 --> 00:03:10,190
Well, look what the cat
named Marc dragged in.

85
00:03:10,290 --> 00:03:11,830
You clean up nice, Detective.

86
00:03:11,930 --> 00:03:13,770
Thank you, Yates.
Looking good yourself.

87
00:03:13,860 --> 00:03:14,860
- Standing pants?
- Oh, yeah.

88
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:16,760
Wow. Hello, hot stuff!

89
00:03:16,860 --> 00:03:18,160
Right back at you, baby.

92

Look at you guys.

93
00:03:24,540 --> 00:03:26,780
You’re the best dressed cops
in the city.

94
00:03:26,870 --> 00:03:27,870
Okay,
let’s get going, kids,

95
00:03:27,970 --> 00:03:30,310
before fashionably late
turns into just late.

96
00:03:30,980 --> 00:03:31,710
See you out front.

97
00:03:33,980 --> 00:03:35,180
That’s a beautiful dress.

98
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:36,080
Thank you.

99
00:03:36,180 --> 00:03:38,220
I’ve never seen you
in a tux before.

100
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:39,150
It’s a rental.

101
00:03:39,250 --> 00:03:41,220
You should keep it.
You wear it well.

102
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:42,250
Maybe I will.

103
00:03:45,090 --> 00:03:48,130
Uh, I should take this.
I’ll catch up with you?

104
00:03:48,230 --> 00:03:49,300
Okay. I’ll see you out there.

105
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,400
Hi, Mr. Vartel.

106
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:53,800
I’m sorry, Dan.
I’m not ready to sell right now.

107
00:03:53,900 --> 00:03:56,100
I apologize that you were
given this information,

108
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:57,970
but I’m busy tonight,
and tomorrow.

109
00:03:58,840 --> 00:03:59,770
Bye.

110
00:04:02,510 --> 00:04:03,610
Heads up.

111
00:04:03,710 --> 00:04:05,280
A 911 call has been
routed to the bullpen.

112
00:04:05,380 --> 00:04:06,380
I got it, Toni. Thanks.

113
00:04:10,450 --> 00:04:11,820
- Hello?
<i>- Hello?</i>

114
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:12,890
<i>Is anybody there?</i>

115
00:04:12,990 --> 00:04:14,390
Yeah, this is Max at the
Metro Police Department.

116
00:04:14,490 --> 00:04:15,390
What’s going on?

117
00:04:15,490 --> 00:04:16,520
<i>I’ve been kidnapped.</i>

118
00:04:16,620 --> 00:04:18,290
<i> Please!
Please, you have to help me!</i>

119
00:04:23,900 --> 00:04:24,870
{\an8}What’s your name?

120
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:25,830
{\an8}<i>Veronica Dreskin!</i>

121
00:04:25,930 --> 00:04:27,270
{\an8} <i> Please, please,
you have to help me!</i>

122
00:04:27,370 --> 00:04:29,110
{\an8} It’s a woman named Veronica.
She said she’s been kidnapped.

123
00:04:29,770 --> 00:04:30,440
{\an8}Hey, Veronica?

124
00:04:30,540 --> 00:04:32,210
{\an8}I have my boss here, Chief Li.

125
00:04:32,310 --> 00:04:33,910
{\an8} Veronica.
This is Chief Patrick Li.

126
00:04:34,010 --> 00:04:35,350
{\an8} Can you tell me where
you’re being held right now?

127
00:04:35,980 --> 00:04:36,810
{\an8}<i>I don’t know.</i>

128
00:04:36,910 --> 00:04:37,740
{\an8}- I don’t know.
<i>- It’s okay.</i>

129
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:39,180
{\an8}Breathe. We’re gonna
get through this.

130
00:04:39,280 --> 00:04:41,420
{\an8}<i>Veronica, I need to get
some information from you</i>

131
00:04:41,510 --> 00:04:42,610
{\an8}<i>so we can help you.</i>

132
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,020
{\an8}Can you tell me if you
saw your kidnappers?

133
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:45,190
{\an8}<i>No.</i>

134
00:04:45,290 --> 00:04:47,860
{\an8}I was walking this morning
on my way to City Hall,

135
00:04:47,950 --> 00:04:50,220
{\an8} and it started to rain,
so I ducked down the alley

136
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:51,990
{\an8}<i>off Sixth to go in
the side entrance,</i>

137
00:04:52,090 --> 00:04:53,460
{\an8}<i> And then this van
pulled up beside me</i>

138
00:04:54,230 --> 00:04:55,400
{\an8}<i>and two men jumped out,</i>

139
00:04:55,500 --> 00:04:57,240
{\an8}and<i> before I knew it, they
threw a bag over my head.</i>

140
00:04:57,330 --> 00:04:59,300
{\an8} They threw me in the van
and they zip tied my hands,

141
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:00,530
{\an8}which are- which are
still bound,

142
00:05:00,630 --> 00:05:02,900
{\an8} and then they didn’t take
the bag off my head until I...

143
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:04,240
{\an8}until I got into this room.

144
00:05:04,340 --> 00:05:06,010
{\an8}- <i> Are you hurt?
</i>- No.

145
00:05:08,010 --> 00:05:10,110
{\an8} I’m just...
I’m just freaking out.

146
00:05:10,210 --> 00:05:11,180
{\an8}<i> It’s okay.</i>

147
00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:12,450
{\an8}Do you know what time
this happened around?

148
00:05:13,310 --> 00:05:14,240
{\an8}It was around 8:45 this morning.

149
00:05:14,350 --> 00:05:15,320
{\an8} Okay. You said
you were in a van.

150
00:05:15,420 --> 00:05:18,020
{\an8}Do you have any idea how
long it was driving for?

151
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,260
{\an8}Yeah, maybe a half hour,
45 minutes?

152
00:05:21,490 --> 00:05:22,960
{\an8}Yates. Get a map set up
in the conference room.

153
00:05:23,060 --> 00:05:24,360
{\an8}Check all the CCTV footage

154
00:05:24,460 --> 00:05:26,160
{\an8}around the City Hall
at that time.

155
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,360
{\an8} Veronica.
Did they say anything?

156
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,130
{\an8}No, not a peep.

157
00:05:31,230 --> 00:05:32,500
{\an8} Ok. Where are
the Kidnappers now?

158
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:33,940
{\an8}<i>I don’t know. I heard
their footsteps</i>

159
00:05:34,030 --> 00:05:34,760
{\an8}go down the hall.

160
00:05:34,870 --> 00:05:36,240
{\an8}I- I don’t think
they can hear me.

161
00:05:36,340 --> 00:05:37,110
{\an8}They let you keep your cell?

162
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,240
{\an8} -<i> No.
</i>- How are you calling us?

163
00:05:39,340 --> 00:05:40,470
{\an8}I built a phone.

164
00:05:41,110 --> 00:05:42,410
{\an8}<i>I, um... I found</i>

165
00:05:43,410 --> 00:05:45,510
{\an8}a painted over wall cover,
and so I-

166
00:05:46,810 --> 00:05:48,110
{\an8}I was just hoping there’d be
an old phone jack inside,

167
00:05:48,210 --> 00:05:50,050
{\an8}so I tried to find something
to open it up,

168
00:05:50,150 --> 00:05:52,050
{\an8} and when I did,
there was no phone jack,

169
00:05:52,150 --> 00:05:53,520
{\an8}But there were these
these phone wires.

170
00:05:53,620 --> 00:05:56,260
{\an8} So all I needed was
a way to hear and be heard.

171
00:05:59,130 --> 00:06:02,000
Every smoke alarm has this,
like, small speaker inside.

172
00:06:02,100 --> 00:06:04,170
So I was able to hook
it up and then I, um,

173
00:06:04,260 --> 00:06:06,930
I tapped out 911 with the wires
and I just prayed

174
00:06:07,030 --> 00:06:08,870
<i>that someone would answer
and you did.</i>

175
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,170
You built a phone?
What are you, MacGyver?

176
00:06:12,270 --> 00:06:14,110
I’m a building
inspector for the City.

177
00:06:14,210 --> 00:06:16,250
I never thought that would
pay off in an emergency,

178
00:06:16,340 --> 00:06:17,410
but here we are.

179
00:06:17,510 --> 00:06:18,580
<i> Veronica, when they took</i>

180
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,550
the bag off your head,
did you see your kidnappers?

181
00:06:20,650 --> 00:06:23,320
Yeah. There was, um,
a big guy in a ski mask.

182
00:06:23,420 --> 00:06:25,960
Um, he took the bag off my head,
took a picture

183
00:06:26,050 --> 00:06:27,990
<i>with his phone, and then-
and then he just left.</i>

184
00:06:29,060 --> 00:06:30,160
Simmons. Get a trace on this.

185
00:06:30,260 --> 00:06:33,100
Find out everything you can
about Veronica Dreskin.

186
00:06:34,190 --> 00:06:36,030
Veronica, do you have any idea

187
00:06:36,130 --> 00:06:37,570
who might have
kidnapped you or why?

188
00:06:37,660 --> 00:06:38,660
<i>No. I mean,</i>

189
00:06:38,770 --> 00:06:40,510
it can’t be for ransom.
We’re not rich.

190
00:06:41,500 --> 00:06:42,500
- We?
<i>- My husband, Todd, and I.</i>

191
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,240
- He’s middle management.
- -<i> Veronica.</i>

192
00:06:44,340 --> 00:06:45,580
This is Detective Ellis.

193
00:06:45,670 --> 00:06:48,010
Are you connected to anybody who
could afford to pay a ransom?

194
00:06:48,110 --> 00:06:49,480
No. My parents are gone,

195
00:06:50,540 --> 00:06:51,210
<i>and my brother’s just
a mechanic.</i>

196
00:06:51,310 --> 00:06:52,550
Where can we reach your husband?

197
00:06:52,650 --> 00:06:53,520
<i>He works at Groundpin.</i>

198
00:06:54,250 --> 00:06:55,280
It’s an HVAC company.

199
00:06:55,380 --> 00:06:56,410
Uh, he’s there right now.

200
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,420
He’s- he’s got a really
big presentation today.

201
00:06:58,520 --> 00:06:59,390
<i> Okay.</i>

202
00:06:59,490 --> 00:07:00,520
We’ll go track him down.

203
00:07:00,620 --> 00:07:01,920
Veronica.

204
00:07:02,020 --> 00:07:04,220
Can you tell us anything about
the room that you’re in?

205
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:05,450
It’s small.

206
00:07:06,190 --> 00:07:07,460
Maybe 300 square feet.

207
00:07:08,460 --> 00:07:10,500
No windows.
Seems like a basement.

208
00:07:11,460 --> 00:07:13,200
Maybe an old commercial
building.

209
00:07:13,300 --> 00:07:13,970
That’s great. What else?

210
00:07:14,070 --> 00:07:17,040
The floors are cracked linoleum.

211
00:07:17,140 --> 00:07:19,310
The door is metal.
No handle inside.

212
00:07:19,410 --> 00:07:21,050
Sir. It’s ready.

213
00:07:21,140 --> 00:07:22,540
Thank you, Veronica.
Just hold tight a minute.

214
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:24,510
We’re going to map out
our next move here.

215
00:07:24,610 --> 00:07:25,810
No, no, don’t hang up, please!

216
00:07:25,910 --> 00:07:26,910
We’re still here.

217
00:07:27,010 --> 00:07:28,780
We can hear you, okay?
We’re not going anywhere.

218
00:07:29,380 --> 00:07:30,250
Come with me.

219
00:07:30,350 --> 00:07:31,520
It’s gonna get
loud in here in a minute.

220
00:07:31,620 --> 00:07:33,290
I got them to set up a private
area for you.

221
00:07:33,390 --> 00:07:34,120
Me?

222
00:07:38,020 --> 00:07:39,490
Veronica is on that phone.

223
00:07:39,590 --> 00:07:41,330
The conference speaker
is an open channel

224
00:07:41,430 --> 00:07:43,400
to us in the bullpen
so we can talk to each other.

225
00:07:43,500 --> 00:07:46,340
Now, the monitor will allow
you to see exactly what we see.

226
00:07:46,430 --> 00:07:48,130
Stay on with her.
Keep her calm.

227
00:07:48,230 --> 00:07:49,030
Get as many details as you can.

228
00:07:49,140 --> 00:07:51,040
I need to go set up
the TRT unit.

229
00:07:51,140 --> 00:07:52,610
Are you sure you want me
on the phone with her?

230
00:07:52,710 --> 00:07:54,610
Shouldn’t we call in like
a hostage negotiator?

231
00:07:54,710 --> 00:07:57,250
Max, I was sitting on a bomb
and you got me through it.

232
00:07:57,340 --> 00:07:59,340
I can’t think of anyone better
to help her through this.

233
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:01,450
Uh, sir? Wait.

234
00:08:01,550 --> 00:08:04,150
Are there any protocols
I should follow, or tips?

235
00:08:04,250 --> 00:08:05,250
Just be yourself.

236
00:08:05,350 --> 00:08:07,220
If you can talk a mark
out of a million dollars,

237
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:08,590
you can talk her
into staying calm.

238
00:08:08,690 --> 00:08:09,420
Max...

239
00:08:10,020 --> 00:08:10,950
You got this.

240
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,060
Hi, Veronica, it’s Max again.

241
00:08:19,170 --> 00:08:20,200
Hi, Max.

242
00:08:20,300 --> 00:08:21,430
<i>Okay, I’m going to be
on the phone with you</i>

243
00:08:21,530 --> 00:08:22,600
until we find you, okay?

244
00:08:22,700 --> 00:08:24,070
Okay. Thank you.

245
00:08:24,170 --> 00:08:26,370
Yates. Tech has the map
ready for you.

246
00:08:26,470 --> 00:08:27,240
Great.

247
00:08:30,110 --> 00:08:31,240
Max.

248
00:08:31,340 --> 00:08:32,540
Veronica, give me a second.

249
00:08:32,650 --> 00:08:34,120
All right, I’m here.
What do you need?

250
00:08:34,210 --> 00:08:35,650
We got the map up.
Can you see it?

251
00:08:35,750 --> 00:08:37,390
- Yeah. Got it.
- Okay, great.

252
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,520
We need to narrow down
where she might be.

253
00:08:39,620 --> 00:08:40,690
Okay. Where do we start?

254
00:08:40,790 --> 00:08:42,590
We need her to walk us
through the incident again.

255
00:08:43,490 --> 00:08:44,660
Okay. Sounds, smells, anything.

256
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,100
People can always remember
more than they think they can.

257
00:08:47,190 --> 00:08:48,290
Okay. Putting her on.

258
00:08:49,430 --> 00:08:51,700
Veronica, I have Detective Yates
on with us.

259
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:52,730
Hi, Veronica.

260
00:08:52,830 --> 00:08:54,470
- Hi.
<i>- Okay. Veronica,</i>

261
00:08:54,570 --> 00:08:57,610
you said you were grabbed
in the alley off 6th.

262
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,180
<i>Then you were in the car
for about 45 minutes.</i>

263
00:09:01,270 --> 00:09:03,370
Can you think back to when
you were first in the van?

264
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:04,510
It’s downtown.

265
00:09:04,610 --> 00:09:06,150
Was the road smooth?

266
00:09:06,250 --> 00:09:07,220
Bumpy?

267
00:09:07,310 --> 00:09:09,010
Actually, yeah. Um...

268
00:09:10,380 --> 00:09:12,180
the road was smooth, and then
after a couple of minutes,

269
00:09:12,290 --> 00:09:13,630
we turned right
and the road got bumpy.

270
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,220
Okay, good. Bumpy, how?
Like speed bumps?

271
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:17,590
Or maybe a construction zone?

272
00:09:17,690 --> 00:09:19,330
<i>Like construction.
Like those, um,</i>

273
00:09:19,430 --> 00:09:20,700
you know those metal plates
they put in the road

274
00:09:21,430 --> 00:09:22,230
when they’re working.

275
00:09:23,330 --> 00:09:24,430
Wait, that must have been
Carlton Street.

276
00:09:24,530 --> 00:09:26,470
<i> They’re- they’re um,
working on the sewers there.</i>

277
00:09:26,570 --> 00:09:28,170
How long were you on, Carlton?

278
00:09:28,270 --> 00:09:29,670
<i>Uh, a couple minutes,
I think? Uh,</i>

279
00:09:29,770 --> 00:09:31,170
uh, I don’t know.
And then, um...

280
00:09:32,410 --> 00:09:33,750
And then we turned
and the road smoothed out again.

281
00:09:34,340 --> 00:09:35,170
Okay. What else?

282
00:09:35,270 --> 00:09:36,440
I don’t know.
I don’t know. That’s it.

283
00:09:36,540 --> 00:09:37,410
<i>Okay, think hard.</i>

284
00:09:37,510 --> 00:09:38,640
Close your eyes.

285
00:09:38,740 --> 00:09:41,040
Put yourself back into the SUV.
What can you remember?

286
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:43,650
Downhill.

287
00:09:44,820 --> 00:09:46,660
Yeah. We went down
a steep grade,

288
00:09:46,750 --> 00:09:48,490
and then the road
noise changed.

289
00:09:48,590 --> 00:09:49,620
Changed how?

290
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,690
<i>The tires made, like,
a- a different sound.</i>

291
00:09:51,790 --> 00:09:53,230
<i>Like we were going over,</i>

292
00:09:53,330 --> 00:09:54,570
like, a metal grid or something.

293
00:09:55,230 --> 00:09:56,030
Wait, I got it.

294
00:09:56,130 --> 00:09:57,330
That must be
Monroe Street Bridge.

295
00:09:57,430 --> 00:09:58,700
Are you sure?

296
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,770
Yes, yes, it’s an open, grate
bridge at the bottom of a hill.

297
00:10:00,870 --> 00:10:02,170
<i>I go over it all the time.</i>

298
00:10:02,270 --> 00:10:02,970
The Monroe Street Bridge.

299
00:10:03,070 --> 00:10:04,240
She’s going east
out of the city.

300
00:10:04,340 --> 00:10:06,480
That went on for a couple
of minutes, and, um...

301
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:09,370
Nothing else stands out.

302
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:10,380
<i>Did that help?</i>

303
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:11,580
Absolutely. Great work.

304
00:10:12,780 --> 00:10:14,020
What you got?

305
00:10:14,110 --> 00:10:15,750
Based on what Veronica
has told us, she’s somewhere

306
00:10:15,850 --> 00:10:17,750
in the eastern section
of the city, here.

307
00:10:17,850 --> 00:10:19,750
Still a big area, but better
than before.

308
00:10:19,850 --> 00:10:21,290
- Yeah.
- Also, Ellis was able

309
00:10:21,390 --> 00:10:22,790
to track down Todd,
Veronica’s husband.

310
00:10:22,890 --> 00:10:23,760
Wasn’t he at work?

311
00:10:23,860 --> 00:10:25,130
No, he was not.

312
00:10:26,330 --> 00:10:28,330
What?
Veronica’s been kidnapped?

313
00:10:28,430 --> 00:10:30,500
What, you expect us to believe
you have nothing to do with it?

314
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:31,700
Of course I don’t.

315
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,200
So you’re saying you haven’t
received a ransom call?

316
00:10:33,300 --> 00:10:35,600
No. This is the first
I’m hearing about any of this.

317
00:10:35,700 --> 00:10:37,300
- When did this happen?
- This morning.

318
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,470
You told your wife
you had a big presentation,

319
00:10:39,570 --> 00:10:42,610
and our officers find you at
home in bed with another woman.

320
00:10:42,710 --> 00:10:44,310
- Sheila.
- Convenient timing.

321
00:10:44,410 --> 00:10:46,450
Oh, it’s classic. Get your wife
out of the picture,

322
00:10:46,550 --> 00:10:48,390
Then you and your mistress
ride off into the sunset.

323
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:49,310
Nice little payday.

324
00:10:49,420 --> 00:10:50,760
I swear I had nothing
to do with it.

325
00:10:51,580 --> 00:10:52,780
- Is she okay?
- For now.

326
00:10:52,890 --> 00:10:53,990
Thank God.

327
00:10:54,090 --> 00:10:55,530
Do you have anything
that’s ransom worthy?

328
00:10:55,620 --> 00:10:57,820
Cash? Expensive art?
Rare collectibles?

329
00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:59,120
What? No.

330
00:10:59,230 --> 00:11:00,630
We’re gonna need to take
a look at your financials.

331
00:11:00,730 --> 00:11:01,730
Life insurance policies.

332
00:11:01,830 --> 00:11:03,300
We don’t have life insurance.

333
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:04,700
I cancelled
our policy months ago.

334
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,500
- Why would you do that?
- I couldn’t afford it.

335
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:07,730
You and your wife
have steady jobs, no?

336
00:11:08,730 --> 00:11:09,530
Yeah, but financing
a double life

337
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:10,670
can be pretty expensive,
right, Todd?

338
00:11:11,570 --> 00:11:13,170
Listen, I may be a bad husband,

339
00:11:14,510 --> 00:11:16,780
but I have nothing to do with
Veronica being kidnapped.

340
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:17,980
I swear.

341
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,550
And you have an alibi
this morning? -45?

342
00:11:20,650 --> 00:11:22,290
Sheila came to my place at 8:30.

343
00:11:23,820 --> 00:11:25,090
Right after Veronica left.

344
00:11:25,180 --> 00:11:27,580
Do you have any idea who would
want to kidnap Veronica or why?

345
00:11:27,690 --> 00:11:28,420
No clue.

346
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:30,260
Everyone loves Veronica.

347
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,600
Everyone loves Veronica
except her cheating husband.

348
00:11:37,660 --> 00:11:38,930
Hey, I just spoke to Todd.

349
00:11:39,030 --> 00:11:41,830
He says he was at home at 8:30,
and his mistress can confirm it.

350
00:11:41,930 --> 00:11:43,830
So Todd has an alibi,
but he still could have hired

351
00:11:43,940 --> 00:11:45,070
someone to take out his wife.

352
00:11:45,170 --> 00:11:46,470
I don’t know, we just
checked his financials.

353
00:11:46,570 --> 00:11:48,840
<i> He can barely afford
to put gas in his car.</i>

354
00:11:48,940 --> 00:11:51,780
Well, her husband is bad,
but maybe not kidnap bad.

355
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:52,880
What should we do with him?

356
00:11:52,980 --> 00:11:54,620
Keep him here.
Kidnappers may call him.

357
00:11:54,710 --> 00:11:55,740
All right.
I’ll let Simmons know.

358
00:11:55,850 --> 00:11:57,820
I’ll check in with tech,
see about the phone trace.

359
00:11:57,920 --> 00:11:59,120
What are you gonna
tell her, Max?

360
00:11:59,220 --> 00:12:00,860
Well, I’m not gonna
tell her that her husband’s

361
00:12:00,950 --> 00:12:02,720
a lying, cheating,
dog-breath scumbag.

362
00:12:02,820 --> 00:12:03,820
She’s already got
enough on her plate.

363
00:12:04,420 --> 00:12:04,890
Yeah. Good call.

364
00:12:07,790 --> 00:12:08,520
Okay.

365
00:12:09,260 --> 00:12:10,530
Hey, Veronica? I’m here.

366
00:12:10,630 --> 00:12:12,800
Hi. Did you get a hold of Todd?
Has there been a ransom call?

367
00:12:12,900 --> 00:12:15,440
<i>Oh, well, we finally located
him, but no ransom call.</i>

368
00:12:16,570 --> 00:12:17,570
He didn’t know that
you’ve been kidnapped.

369
00:12:17,670 --> 00:12:20,510
Wait. So they haven’t
even contacted him yet?

370
00:12:20,610 --> 00:12:21,640
I don’t- I don’t understand.

371
00:12:21,740 --> 00:12:23,480
What’s the point of a
kidnapping with no ransom?

372
00:12:23,580 --> 00:12:25,380
Well, that’s what we’re trying
to work out.

373
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,480
Unless, of course...
I’m never getting released.

374
00:12:28,580 --> 00:12:30,620
Don’t go there.
We’re gonna find you.

375
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:31,490
<i>Okay.</i>

376
00:12:32,050 --> 00:12:33,450
Wait. Max...

377
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,320
You said "finally located him".

378
00:12:36,420 --> 00:12:37,760
<i>Those were your words.</i>

379
00:12:37,860 --> 00:12:39,760
You said "finally located him"
but I told you

380
00:12:39,860 --> 00:12:41,930
that he was at work for
a big presentation today.

381
00:12:42,030 --> 00:12:43,060
Well, I can find out
the details

382
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:44,460
from the officers
that picked him up.

383
00:12:45,300 --> 00:12:46,770
He was with her,
wasn’t he?

384
00:12:47,470 --> 00:12:48,540
<i>Sheila?</i>

385
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:51,680
Tell me the truth, please.

386
00:12:52,740 --> 00:12:54,940
Veronica, I’m sorry.

387
00:12:58,310 --> 00:13:01,680
He was with his mistress
while I was being kidnapped.

388
00:13:04,850 --> 00:13:05,920
You knew about her?

389
00:13:06,550 --> 00:13:08,350
Yeah.

390
00:13:09,790 --> 00:13:10,920
Few months back
I saw some texts,

391
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:12,720
but he promised to end it.

392
00:13:13,460 --> 00:13:14,490
<i> But he didn’t.</i>

393
00:13:15,330 --> 00:13:16,830
We did therapy and all that,

394
00:13:16,930 --> 00:13:17,930
<i>and, I don’t know, I guess</i>

395
00:13:18,030 --> 00:13:20,430
<i> some part of me knew
he never ended anything.</i>

396
00:13:21,870 --> 00:13:24,370
You know, the irony is I even
planned us a surprise trip,

397
00:13:24,470 --> 00:13:25,570
hoping we could reconnect.

398
00:13:26,370 --> 00:13:27,840
I guess that was just a...

399
00:13:27,940 --> 00:13:29,610
Band-Aid solution
for the real problem.

400
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,210
I’ve just been in denial.

401
00:13:35,510 --> 00:13:37,880
I feel so stupid.

402
00:13:37,980 --> 00:13:40,880
You’re not stupid.
And you’re not to blame, okay?

403
00:13:40,990 --> 00:13:43,460
Okay, you don’t have to say
that just to keep me calm.

404
00:13:43,560 --> 00:13:44,330
<i>I’m not.</i>

405
00:13:45,090 --> 00:13:45,920
Sometimes it feels easier

406
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:47,930
to just avoid some things
altogether.

407
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,370
My whole job is about
finding flaws in buildings.

408
00:13:52,630 --> 00:13:54,530
I couldn’t even see
the cracks in my own marriage.

409
00:13:55,530 --> 00:13:56,300
<i> Max.</i>

410
00:13:56,970 --> 00:13:58,240
Veronica. Hold on.

411
00:13:59,470 --> 00:14:00,140
Yes, Chief.

412
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:01,580
We just heard back from tech.

413
00:14:01,670 --> 00:14:03,840
They can’t trace the line.
It’s like it doesn’t exist.

414
00:14:03,940 --> 00:14:04,770
Well, how can that be?

415
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:05,650
They don’t know.

416
00:14:05,740 --> 00:14:06,940
Well, she’s a building
inspector.

417
00:14:07,050 --> 00:14:08,690
Maybe she will.

418
00:14:08,780 --> 00:14:11,020
Veronica, we’re having a hard
time tracing the line

419
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,190
<i>you’re calling from.</i>

420
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,580
Our techies say the number
doesn’t exist?

421
00:14:14,690 --> 00:14:15,820
Any idea why that might be?

422
00:14:16,620 --> 00:14:17,790
Because it’s a ghost line.

423
00:14:17,890 --> 00:14:18,990
What’s that?

424
00:14:19,090 --> 00:14:20,690
In abandoned commercial
buildings,

425
00:14:20,790 --> 00:14:21,660
the phone numbers drop off

426
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,000
<i> the telecom
provider’s um, records.</i>

427
00:14:24,100 --> 00:14:25,030
<i>There’s no paper trails</i>

428
00:14:25,930 --> 00:14:27,030
or database entry. It’s like...

429
00:14:27,130 --> 00:14:29,430
it’s like the phone version
of ghost in the walls.

430
00:14:29,540 --> 00:14:31,440
Which makes
it impossible to trace.

431
00:14:31,540 --> 00:14:32,610
Does that mean you’re
not gonna find me?

432
00:14:32,710 --> 00:14:34,650
<i>It means we’re gonna have
to find another way.</i>

433
00:14:35,670 --> 00:14:36,970
<i>Veronica, this is
Detective Ellis.</i>

434
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:38,450
He’s my partner.

435
00:14:38,540 --> 00:14:40,780
Can you think of anybody who
might have a grudge against you?

436
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,850
Honestly, no, I can’t. I-

437
00:14:42,950 --> 00:14:44,020
<i> Veronica. Breathe.</i>

438
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:45,520
Take a breath, okay? Think.

439
00:14:45,620 --> 00:14:46,550
<i>Okay. Um...</i>

440
00:14:47,290 --> 00:14:48,120
What was the question?

441
00:14:48,220 --> 00:14:49,490
<i>Is there anyone you
can think of</i>

442
00:14:49,590 --> 00:14:50,660
<i>who might want to harm you?</i>

443
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:51,690
Maybe somebody at work?

444
00:14:51,790 --> 00:14:53,860
That’s crazy.
I- I can’t think of anybody.

445
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:54,630
I just--

446
00:14:55,690 --> 00:14:56,620
<i>Wait a minute.</i>

447
00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:58,600
No. There is a guy.
He’s, um...

448
00:14:59,430 --> 00:15:00,300
He’s a real estate developer

449
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:01,800
<i>with, like, a really
scary temper.</i>

450
00:15:01,900 --> 00:15:03,870
He left me a bunch of
threatening voicemails yesterday

451
00:15:03,970 --> 00:15:05,840
I can’t believe I didn’t
remember that. I- I just-

452
00:15:05,940 --> 00:15:07,010
<i>It feels like so long ago.</i>

453
00:15:07,110 --> 00:15:09,010
Okay, you’re doing great,
Veronica. What’s his name?

454
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:11,910
- Oh, my God, I hear something.
- - <i> Veronica?</i>

455
00:15:12,010 --> 00:15:13,610
I hear something.
Someone’s coming.

456
00:15:13,710 --> 00:15:14,640
Veronica!

457
00:15:14,750 --> 00:15:15,620
Veronica.

458
00:15:15,710 --> 00:15:16,540
Are you okay?

459
00:15:16,650 --> 00:15:18,450
If you can hear us,
we’re still here.

460
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:23,720
Damn it!

461
00:15:27,490 --> 00:15:28,390
Veronica?

462
00:15:32,460 --> 00:15:33,460
Chief, it’s been 10 minutes.

463
00:15:33,570 --> 00:15:35,640
<i>- We have to go get her.
- </i> - <i> Max,</i>

464
00:15:35,730 --> 00:15:37,130
we can’t call back
a ghost line.

465
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:38,810
Look, I just got off the phone

466
00:15:38,900 --> 00:15:39,970
with Veronica’s supervisor,
okay?

467
00:15:40,070 --> 00:15:41,570
The building developer
that she was talking about?

468
00:15:41,670 --> 00:15:42,640
His name is Arturo Bianchi.

469
00:15:42,740 --> 00:15:43,940
Some glorified
slumlord with mob ties.

470
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:45,910
Go talk to him.
I’ll get Simmons to run

471
00:15:46,010 --> 00:15:46,980
a background check
on Bianchi for you.

472
00:15:48,250 --> 00:15:49,520
What if we lost her?
What if they already got her?

473
00:15:49,620 --> 00:15:51,620
Max, we don’t have enough
information to panic yet.

474
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:52,960
Well, that’s never
stopped me before.

475
00:15:53,950 --> 00:15:54,850
We’re doing everything
that we can.

476
00:15:54,950 --> 00:15:56,990
Let’s just focus on
what we can control.

477
00:15:57,590 --> 00:15:58,620
<i> Okay.</i>

478
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:00,560
TRT are prepped and ready
when you have a location.

479
00:16:00,660 --> 00:16:01,730
I’ll update them.

480
00:16:01,830 --> 00:16:03,630
Max, stay on the phone.

481
00:16:03,730 --> 00:16:05,000
<i> You’re the voice
that she’s gonna wanna hear</i>

482
00:16:05,900 --> 00:16:06,630
<i>as soon as she gets back online.</i>

483
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,580
I appreciate you dressing
up for me, Detective,

484
00:16:19,610 --> 00:16:20,850
but I only got five minutes.

485
00:16:20,950 --> 00:16:22,020
Mr. Bianchi.

486
00:16:22,110 --> 00:16:24,050
I hear you recently clashed
with a Veronica Dreskin?

487
00:16:24,950 --> 00:16:26,150
Of course I did.
I’m a developer.

488
00:16:26,250 --> 00:16:28,620
And "<i> Sherlock Holmes</i> inspector"
is costing me millions.

489
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:29,790
How’s she doing that?

490
00:16:29,890 --> 00:16:31,960
Well, she loves to spot
the tiniest little details

491
00:16:32,060 --> 00:16:33,630
other people don’t even notice.

492
00:16:33,730 --> 00:16:35,800
Which makes her
a real pain in my ass.

493
00:16:35,890 --> 00:16:36,760
All her code violations

494
00:16:36,860 --> 00:16:38,760
are going to set me back
at least a month.

495
00:16:38,860 --> 00:16:39,730
You know what that’s
going to cost?

496
00:16:39,830 --> 00:16:41,200
Sounds to me like
she’s good at her job.

497
00:16:41,300 --> 00:16:44,640
Uh-uh. Other inspectors, they
understand the big picture.

498
00:16:44,740 --> 00:16:46,140
They know I got deadlines.

499
00:16:47,010 --> 00:16:49,010
Veronica is always nitpicking.

500
00:16:49,110 --> 00:16:50,980
Veronica’s been kidnapped.

501
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,050
Whoa. You’re kidding, right?

502
00:16:53,510 --> 00:16:54,380
No.

503
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:55,920
You think I had something
to do with that?

504
00:16:56,020 --> 00:16:56,890
Well, you did threaten her

505
00:16:56,980 --> 00:16:58,150
when she wouldn’t drop
the violations.

506
00:16:58,250 --> 00:17:01,550
Well, yeah, I was angry,
but that’s just how we talk.

507
00:17:01,650 --> 00:17:03,590
You ever worked
a construction site?

508
00:17:03,690 --> 00:17:05,830
Look, I didn’t do anything crazy
I’m a businessman.

509
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,790
Where were you
this morning at 8:15 a.m.?

510
00:17:07,890 --> 00:17:09,860
I was here.
I’ve been here since sunrise.

511
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,200
Ask anyone.

512
00:17:11,300 --> 00:17:13,070
I’ll need a list of all your
properties that have basements.

513
00:17:13,170 --> 00:17:14,510
Yeah, not a problem.

514
00:17:15,730 --> 00:17:18,030
Veronica. She’s a pain,
but she’s a smart lady.

515
00:17:18,140 --> 00:17:21,140
I respect that,
so whatever I can do to help.

516
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:22,540
Thanks for your time.

517
00:17:30,950 --> 00:17:31,880
<i> Max?</i>

518
00:17:31,980 --> 00:17:33,680
We got her back.
911 is patching her through.

519
00:17:35,650 --> 00:17:36,550
Veronica?

520
00:17:37,090 --> 00:17:37,920
I’m okay.

521
00:17:38,020 --> 00:17:39,190
Oh. What happened?
Did they hurt you?

522
00:17:40,060 --> 00:17:41,600
No. They just brought me food.

523
00:17:41,690 --> 00:17:42,620
Food?

524
00:17:42,730 --> 00:17:44,130
<i>Yeah, he just handed
it to me and left.</i>

525
00:17:44,930 --> 00:17:45,760
That’s a good sign, right?

526
00:17:45,860 --> 00:17:47,030
Maybe they won’t kill me.

527
00:17:47,130 --> 00:17:49,130
Veronica? It’s Detective
Yates again.

528
00:17:49,230 --> 00:17:51,130
Can you tell us more about
the food and be detailed?

529
00:17:51,770 --> 00:17:52,840
Yeah. It’s, uh...

530
00:17:54,110 --> 00:17:56,180
It’s a cheeseburger
and fries from The Golden Bun.

531
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,680
Were the fries curly
or straight cut?

532
00:17:58,780 --> 00:18:00,180
Yates. What are you doing?

533
00:18:01,210 --> 00:18:02,850
Their curly fries
are to die for, sir.

534
00:18:02,950 --> 00:18:04,890
- Not you, Veronica.
<i>- -</i> <i> I think Yates</i>

535
00:18:04,980 --> 00:18:06,780
is on to something.
Are the fries still hot?

536
00:18:07,690 --> 00:18:09,130
Yeah, yeah, they’re still warm.

537
00:18:10,220 --> 00:18:11,120
Yates. She’s gotta be near
a Golden Bun.

538
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:12,750
Mhm.

539
00:18:13,830 --> 00:18:16,130
Okay. There are 25
Golden Bun locations

540
00:18:16,700 --> 00:18:17,770
in the city,

541
00:18:17,860 --> 00:18:19,760
but we know she’s in the eastern
section of the city,

542
00:18:19,870 --> 00:18:22,170
so that cuts the number down
to 15 locations.

543
00:18:22,940 --> 00:18:23,910
And if Veronica is right,

544
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,800
and she did go over
the Monroe Street Bridge,

545
00:18:25,900 --> 00:18:27,170
we can eliminate
these five locations.

546
00:18:28,110 --> 00:18:29,210
- Leaving 10 locations.
- Mmhmm.

547
00:18:29,310 --> 00:18:30,440
And warm fries means

548
00:18:30,540 --> 00:18:32,180
that she’s within five
minutes of one of them.

549
00:18:32,740 --> 00:18:33,670
Toni!

550
00:18:34,580 --> 00:18:36,120
The kidnappers picked up
an order

551
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:38,150
of a cheeseburger and fries,
and Veronica’s line dropped.

552
00:18:39,180 --> 00:18:40,250
We need to figure out
which Golden Bun

553
00:18:41,550 --> 00:18:43,050
took that exact order within
that specific time frame.

554
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:44,090
You got it, Chief.

555
00:18:44,190 --> 00:18:44,990
Toni.

556
00:18:45,090 --> 00:18:47,030
Pick me up a number five,
would you?

557
00:18:47,130 --> 00:18:49,700
Extra pickles and cheese.
Get yourself something, too.

558
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:50,530
Thanks.

559
00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,780
I haven’t had
a burger in over a year.

560
00:18:59,870 --> 00:19:00,740
Why not?

561
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,080
<i>Todd was really into
clean eating,</i>

562
00:19:02,170 --> 00:19:05,170
healthy habits and I was just
trying to be supportive,

563
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:07,250
But from now on, I’m eating
whatever the hell I want.

564
00:19:07,350 --> 00:19:08,790
Fries before guys.

565
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,080
- Amen, sister.
- Oh, hold on, Veronica.

566
00:19:12,820 --> 00:19:14,220
Please have some good news.

567
00:19:15,290 --> 00:19:16,260
<i> Bianchi’s alibi
holds up.</i>

568
00:19:17,120 --> 00:19:18,220
None of the properties he owns

569
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,020
match the kind of building
Veronica is being held in.

570
00:19:20,130 --> 00:19:21,970
Okay, well, what about
the threatening voicemails?

571
00:19:22,060 --> 00:19:22,990
<i> Apparently,
she’s relentless about</i>

572
00:19:23,100 --> 00:19:25,300
finding even
the smallest code violations.

573
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,240
All the builders
call her "Sherlock Homes".

574
00:19:27,330 --> 00:19:29,930
You know, spelled
like H.O.M.E.S.

575
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:31,170
I get it.

576
00:19:31,270 --> 00:19:32,770
Boys are so lame.

577
00:19:32,870 --> 00:19:34,240
Bottom line,
Bianchi’s a dead end.

578
00:19:35,170 --> 00:19:37,040
Maybe not.
I’ll call you back.

579
00:19:38,340 --> 00:19:39,840
- <i> Veronica?
</i>- Still here.

580
00:19:40,710 --> 00:19:41,740
Any leads?

581
00:19:41,850 --> 00:19:42,850
Just your nickname.

582
00:19:42,950 --> 00:19:44,990
Oh, you mean "Sherlock Homes"?

583
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:46,210
Spelled H.O.M.E.S.

584
00:19:47,290 --> 00:19:48,990
You make these idiots
lives miserable

585
00:19:49,090 --> 00:19:50,990
by focusing on
the tiny details, right?

586
00:19:51,090 --> 00:19:52,090
Proudly, yes.

587
00:19:52,190 --> 00:19:55,060
So put that funny hat on
with the ear flaps, okay?

588
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:55,930
Look around the room.

589
00:19:56,030 --> 00:19:58,170
<i>What do you see?
Take your time.</i>

590
00:19:59,770 --> 00:20:01,810
Stare and tell me the story.

591
00:20:09,270 --> 00:20:10,000
Uh...

592
00:20:11,140 --> 00:20:12,910
Okay. The ceiling

593
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,980
is panelled,
probably suspended,

594
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,180
which is normal for
a commercial building.

595
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,760
The door frame is wide, which
means cinder block masonry.

596
00:20:26,830 --> 00:20:29,300
There’s a metal beam
on the wall,

597
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:31,930
which, uh, is non-combustible.

598
00:20:32,030 --> 00:20:34,200
It means this building is
probably more than six floors.

599
00:20:34,300 --> 00:20:35,670
Okay. That’s good.
What else?

600
00:20:37,340 --> 00:20:41,340
Rockwool. It’s, uh...
it’s been re-insulated.

601
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:42,510
How do you know?

602
00:20:42,610 --> 00:20:44,350
<i> The insulation
doesn’t look degraded.</i>

603
00:20:45,340 --> 00:20:46,780
It means it was
probably insulated

604
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:48,150
with asbestos, initially.

605
00:20:48,980 --> 00:20:49,980
Is someone coming?

606
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,160
Whoever approves
the removal of asbestos

607
00:20:57,260 --> 00:20:59,930
is supposed to leave
a tag right at the edge here.

608
00:21:06,370 --> 00:21:07,940
205794.

609
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,200
<i>That’s the building
inspector’s ID.</i>

610
00:21:11,300 --> 00:21:15,170
The date is faded,
but the year is 1998.

611
00:21:15,270 --> 00:21:17,240
- Okay, can we look this up?
- <i> It’ll be in the records</i>

612
00:21:17,340 --> 00:21:18,410
- at City Hall.
- Okay.

613
00:21:19,180 --> 00:21:20,050
That’s amazing, Veronica.

614
00:21:22,950 --> 00:21:24,150
I hear something.

615
00:21:24,250 --> 00:21:24,850
What is it?

616
00:21:24,950 --> 00:21:26,290
<i> Help!</i>

617
00:21:27,490 --> 00:21:29,430
<i> Please, help!
Help! Anybody!</i>

618
00:21:30,420 --> 00:21:32,220
<i>Help! Help!</i>

619
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,290
It’s a man’s voice
coming from the next room.

620
00:21:34,390 --> 00:21:37,030
<i> Hey somebody!
Come help me, please!</i>

621
00:21:37,130 --> 00:21:38,260
He’s yelling for help.

622
00:21:40,170 --> 00:21:41,170
They’re coming.

623
00:21:41,270 --> 00:21:43,070
Don’t hang up! Okay?

624
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,140
<i>Where are you taking me?</i>

625
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:49,340
<i>Where are we going?</i>

626
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:53,210
<i>Please don’t! Stop! Stop!
Don’t hurt me! Please!</i>

627
00:21:55,050 --> 00:21:56,390
<i>Max! Max, do you hear that?</i>

628
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:57,610
<i> They’re holding
somebody else here.</i>

629
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,260
<i>What does that mean?
What do they want?</i>

630
00:21:59,350 --> 00:22:00,890
I don’t know. Hang on.

631
00:22:01,950 --> 00:22:03,320
- Chief?
- I heard.

632
00:22:04,490 --> 00:22:05,420
Seems like we’re dealing
with two kidnappings.

633
00:22:09,530 --> 00:22:11,100
- Chief.
- Yeah.

634
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:12,470
So two people were kidnapped?

635
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:13,830
It seems like it.

636
00:22:13,930 --> 00:22:15,300
Sounded like the other
person there was being moved.

637
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,070
Another hostage makes the no
ransom thing even weirder, no?

638
00:22:18,170 --> 00:22:20,370
Simmons, look into reports
for the last 24 hours.

639
00:22:21,370 --> 00:22:22,470
Let’s make sure
another kidnapping

640
00:22:22,570 --> 00:22:23,940
or missing persons report didn’t
get lost in the shuffle.

641
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:24,910
I’m on it right now.

642
00:22:25,010 --> 00:22:27,250
You and you. Let’s go.
You’re with me.

643
00:22:27,350 --> 00:22:28,420
The Golden Bun’s a dead end.

644
00:22:29,510 --> 00:22:30,510
Hundreds of that exact meal
were ordered

645
00:22:31,650 --> 00:22:32,250
during the time frame
at those locations.

646
00:22:32,350 --> 00:22:33,250
Of course.

647
00:22:33,350 --> 00:22:34,480
we’re gathering
all their CCTV footage,

648
00:22:34,590 --> 00:22:35,460
but it’s going to take hours.

649
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:36,490
Damn it.

650
00:22:38,020 --> 00:22:39,260
Thank you, Toni.

651
00:22:42,430 --> 00:22:44,070
<i> What if I’m next?</i>

652
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,130
Remember what I said.
Don’t go there.

653
00:22:46,230 --> 00:22:47,000
You have big things to do,

654
00:22:47,100 --> 00:22:49,370
like dump your
sleazebag husband.

655
00:22:50,070 --> 00:22:51,200
True.

656
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,500
I have an idea.
Let’s play the alphabet game.

657
00:22:55,340 --> 00:22:56,370
- What’s that?
- <i> We...</i>

658
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:58,350
go through the alphabet
one letter at a time.

659
00:22:58,440 --> 00:22:59,940
I’ll name something,
and then you go.

660
00:23:01,250 --> 00:23:02,490
I can definitely think of
a word that starts with a B.

661
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:04,390
<i>Maybe we’ll start with C.</i>

662
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,450
On second thought, let’s go
straight to D. Doughnut.

663
00:23:08,120 --> 00:23:09,490
Deception.

664
00:23:09,990 --> 00:23:10,690
Elephant.

665
00:23:10,790 --> 00:23:12,430
Extensions.
The cheap kind.

666
00:23:12,890 --> 00:23:13,560
Frog.

667
00:23:13,660 --> 00:23:15,230
Fake. Like her tan.

668
00:23:15,330 --> 00:23:16,900
I’m sensing a theme here.

669
00:23:19,230 --> 00:23:22,370
I know what you’re doing, Max,
and I really appreciate it.

670
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:24,500
<i>You have no idea what
it means to me to have</i>

671
00:23:25,540 --> 00:23:26,340
your voice on the end
of this line.

672
00:23:27,740 --> 00:23:30,010
<i> You tell me in person when
you get out of there, okay?</i>

673
00:23:31,380 --> 00:23:32,350
I hope so.

674
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,490
Okay. Where were we?

675
00:23:42,090 --> 00:23:43,060
The letter G.

676
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:45,420
- Guacamole.
- Gold digger.

677
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:46,990
- Hamster.
- Home-wrecker.

678
00:23:49,590 --> 00:23:51,490
Chief, we’ve got ourselves
another kidnapping.

679
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:52,470
Came in this morning.

680
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:53,330
Talk to me.

681
00:23:53,430 --> 00:23:55,500
All right.
Name’s Ramon Alvarez.

682
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,240
Witness says he was
snatched in broad daylight,

683
00:23:57,340 --> 00:23:59,140
thrown in a vehicle
just outside his house.

684
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:00,370
Another black SUV?

685
00:24:00,470 --> 00:24:03,540
Yeah, you guessed it, another
black SUV. Vanier Park.

686
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:04,710
How is this not on our radar?

687
00:24:04,810 --> 00:24:06,580
Uniform went out,
did a knock and talk.

688
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:08,180
His husband said there
must be a mix up.

689
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:09,180
Ramon is just fine.

690
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,220
Sounded a little too sure,
if you ask me.

691
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:12,250
Call Ellis.

692
00:24:12,350 --> 00:24:14,190
Tell him we need Ramon’s
statement in person.

693
00:24:15,550 --> 00:24:16,380
Hey, Chief.

694
00:24:16,490 --> 00:24:18,230
We traced the inspector’s
I.D. number

695
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:19,590
from the asbestos-free tag.

696
00:24:19,690 --> 00:24:22,190
He approved 36 buildings
in the city in 1998.

697
00:24:22,290 --> 00:24:23,160
How many in our zone?

698
00:24:23,260 --> 00:24:24,090
Twenty.

699
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:25,440
Tell Yates to get this up
on the map.

700
00:24:26,500 --> 00:24:27,500
- <i> Zebra.
- </i>-<i> Zipper.</i>

701
00:24:28,670 --> 00:24:29,400
<i> If only
he’d kept his closed.</i>

702
00:24:30,300 --> 00:24:30,930
Max?

703
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:32,610
Veronica, hold on a second.

704
00:24:32,700 --> 00:24:34,340
<i> There has been
a second abduction.</i>

705
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:35,640
Ellis is following up,

706
00:24:36,910 --> 00:24:37,910
and we’ve narrowed
the buildings down to about 20.

707
00:24:38,980 --> 00:24:39,910
So let’s try and get
some more details.

708
00:24:40,810 --> 00:24:41,910
Veronica, I have my chief here.

709
00:24:42,010 --> 00:24:43,550
<i> Veronica? All the
information you’ve give us</i>

710
00:24:43,650 --> 00:24:45,090
<i>thus far has been a great help.</i>

711
00:24:45,180 --> 00:24:46,310
<i>And we are getting closer.</i>

712
00:24:46,420 --> 00:24:48,560
Now, you mentioned that you’re
in a commercial building.

713
00:24:48,650 --> 00:24:49,890
How do you know this?

714
00:24:49,990 --> 00:24:51,460
<i> Because of the
cinder block, primarily.</i>

715
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,460
Cinder block like this
isn’t normally used

716
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:54,530
<i>for residential homes.</i>

717
00:24:54,630 --> 00:24:55,560
That’s great. Anything else?

718
00:24:56,530 --> 00:24:57,630
<i> Yeah.
The mortaring.</i>

719
00:24:57,730 --> 00:25:00,330
<i>These cinder blocks have thick,
irregular joints,</i>

720
00:25:00,430 --> 00:25:02,400
so the building’s probably old.

721
00:25:02,500 --> 00:25:05,300
Probably older than 1950, when
the mortaring style changed.

722
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:06,530
Okay, fantastic.

723
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,440
<i> You can call
the Public Works Department</i>

724
00:25:08,540 --> 00:25:10,680
and get a city engineer
that can help narrow that down.

725
00:25:10,780 --> 00:25:11,680
Copy that. Thank you.

726
00:25:13,210 --> 00:25:14,340
Nice work, Veronica.

727
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:16,410
Do you think it helped?

728
00:25:17,450 --> 00:25:18,420
I know it did.

729
00:25:23,420 --> 00:25:26,090
Hi. Detective Ellis.
Metro P.D.

730
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:28,260
I was hoping
to speak with Ramon today.

731
00:25:28,360 --> 00:25:29,390
That’s my husband.

732
00:25:29,490 --> 00:25:31,530
I have some questions
about an abduction report.

733
00:25:31,630 --> 00:25:32,500
Ramon!

734
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:36,670
Ramon, this is
Detective Ellis.

735
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:38,670
He’s here about
the whole kidnapping thing.

736
00:25:38,770 --> 00:25:39,670
Oh.

737
00:25:40,570 --> 00:25:43,270
Well, here I am, not kidnapped.

738
00:25:43,380 --> 00:25:44,650
I’m very glad to see that.

739
00:25:44,740 --> 00:25:46,610
Sorry you were sent
on a wild goose chase.

740
00:25:46,710 --> 00:25:50,180
Your neighbour, Dorothy Banks,
reported that a black SUV

741
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:51,280
pulled up in front
of your house,

742
00:25:51,380 --> 00:25:54,150
Ramon was dragged inside,
and then it sped away.

743
00:25:54,250 --> 00:25:55,220
Do you have any idea why
she would have

744
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,320
made up such an elaborate
and specific claim?

745
00:25:58,420 --> 00:26:00,190
- Dorothy is like 90.
- Yeah.

746
00:26:00,290 --> 00:26:02,730
She calls 911 more times
than she calls her family.

747
00:26:02,830 --> 00:26:04,600
I mean, she once accused
me of stealing pound cakes

748
00:26:05,230 --> 00:26:05,930
from her freezer.

749
00:26:06,030 --> 00:26:07,430
Turns out she was sleep eating.

750
00:26:07,530 --> 00:26:09,270
All right, well, I just
have to ask for our records.

751
00:26:09,370 --> 00:26:10,240
Where were you both

752
00:26:10,340 --> 00:26:12,310
when Mrs. Banks
reported the kidnapping?

753
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,140
Oh, I was working
in my home office,

754
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:15,440
and Landon
was at the stadium.

755
00:26:15,540 --> 00:26:16,740
I got home less
than an hour ago.

756
00:26:17,810 --> 00:26:18,380
I’m a relief pitcher
for the Heat Wave.

757
00:26:19,380 --> 00:26:21,220
He’s converted
ten straight saves.

758
00:26:21,310 --> 00:26:22,140
Go Heat Wave!

759
00:26:22,250 --> 00:26:24,250
Well, thanks for
your time, gentlemen.

760
00:26:24,350 --> 00:26:25,320
- Yeah.
- Appreciate it.

761
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:27,180
Yeah.

762
00:26:30,360 --> 00:26:31,190
They’re lying.

763
00:26:31,290 --> 00:26:33,290
Landon and Ramon
say nothing happened,

764
00:26:33,390 --> 00:26:35,590
but the marks on Ramon’s wrists
tell a different story.

765
00:26:35,690 --> 00:26:37,460
They look like zip tie marks.

766
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,400
<i> Veronica’s wrists
are still zip tied.</i>

767
00:26:39,500 --> 00:26:41,540
Now, why would Ramon
and his husband

768
00:26:41,630 --> 00:26:43,600
lie about
him getting kidnapped?

769
00:26:43,700 --> 00:26:45,140
<i>Because they’re
hiding something.</i>

770
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:47,410
I just found something
that can prove it.

771
00:26:50,580 --> 00:26:51,780
We got this
from your neighbour’s

772
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,010
doorbell camera this morning.

773
00:26:59,550 --> 00:27:01,290
Why did you lie to me
about the kidnapping?

774
00:27:01,390 --> 00:27:02,760
I promised Landon
I wouldn’t say anything.

775
00:27:02,850 --> 00:27:04,450
What, has he got
something to do with this?

776
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:05,330
No.

777
00:27:06,220 --> 00:27:07,560
I mean, it’s complicated.

778
00:27:07,660 --> 00:27:09,560
The kidnappers took me
to get to him.

779
00:27:09,660 --> 00:27:11,630
And when he did what they said,
they brought me back home.

780
00:27:11,730 --> 00:27:13,370
What do you mean,
he did what they said?

781
00:27:13,470 --> 00:27:14,570
I’m sorry.
I can’t tell you.

782
00:27:14,670 --> 00:27:17,510
If the truth ever came out,
it would ruin his career.

783
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,640
You do realize
obstructing justice

784
00:27:19,740 --> 00:27:21,040
can also ruin your career,
right?

785
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,580
After the kidnappers
took Ramon,

786
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:27,280
they called me
with instructions.

787
00:27:27,380 --> 00:27:28,350
All right. Which were?

788
00:27:29,380 --> 00:27:30,380
Do you know anything
about baseball?

789
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:31,820
More of a football guy myself.

790
00:27:32,550 --> 00:27:33,580
I’m a relief pitcher.

791
00:27:33,690 --> 00:27:36,330
I throw one, maybe two innings
a game, tops.

792
00:27:36,420 --> 00:27:37,820
The kidnappers told me
that during my inning,

793
00:27:38,860 --> 00:27:40,230
my first pitch
had to go into the dirt.

794
00:27:40,330 --> 00:27:41,630
My second had to be a fastball.

795
00:27:41,730 --> 00:27:44,730
My third had to be a curveball,
and my fourth had to be sinker.

796
00:27:44,830 --> 00:27:46,700
All right.
Why such specific pitches?

797
00:27:47,770 --> 00:27:48,740
They must have been fixing
a micro-bet.

798
00:27:49,470 --> 00:27:50,500
What is that?

799
00:27:51,570 --> 00:27:53,470
Ramon’s kidnapping
wasn’t about ransom.

800
00:27:53,570 --> 00:27:54,670
It’s a sports bet hustle.

801
00:27:54,770 --> 00:27:56,470
Not just any regular
game fixing.

802
00:27:56,570 --> 00:27:57,500
Micro-betting.

803
00:27:57,610 --> 00:27:58,410
Explain.

804
00:27:58,510 --> 00:27:59,540
It’s not like
traditional betting

805
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,140
where you’re betting
on wins and losses.

806
00:28:01,250 --> 00:28:03,350
Instead, you’re betting on
a specific moment of a game.

807
00:28:03,450 --> 00:28:05,650
Yeah. Like betting on how
many times a tennis player

808
00:28:05,750 --> 00:28:07,350
would bounce the ball
before he serves it.

809
00:28:07,450 --> 00:28:09,690
Or each pitch of an inning,
like Landon did.

810
00:28:09,790 --> 00:28:11,260
The kidnappers told Landon

811
00:28:11,360 --> 00:28:12,490
which pitches he had to throw
in the game.

812
00:28:12,590 --> 00:28:14,830
So he did what they said,
and then they released Ramon.

813
00:28:15,290 --> 00:28:15,720
Yeah.

814
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:18,470
Max?

815
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:19,730
<i> Oh, hold on, Veronica.</i>

816
00:28:20,530 --> 00:28:21,430
No, no, no, don’t mute me.

817
00:28:21,530 --> 00:28:23,500
Veronica. Do you
know anyone in pro sports?

818
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:24,500
No.

819
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:25,870
It could be anyone
even remotely related.

820
00:28:26,710 --> 00:28:27,580
A ball boy, a caddy, anyone.

821
00:28:28,270 --> 00:28:29,770
My brother, Freddy.

822
00:28:29,870 --> 00:28:31,270
He’s on Justin Allgaier’s
pit crew

823
00:28:31,380 --> 00:28:32,820
for the NASCAR O’Reilly series.

824
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,650
<i> Former champion
Justin Allgaier.</i>

825
00:28:40,750 --> 00:28:42,720
<i>Justin, what would you say
to the other drivers</i>

826
00:28:42,820 --> 00:28:44,120
<i>on the track today that are
competing against you?</i>

827
00:28:44,220 --> 00:28:46,690
<i> Yeah, I mean, they’re going to
have a tough road ahead of them.</i>

828
00:28:46,790 --> 00:28:48,790
<i>You know, I think that this
is going to be a big battle.</i>

829
00:28:48,890 --> 00:28:50,490
<i> We’re excited,
We’re ready for the challenge,</i>

830
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:51,870
<i>and we’ll see what happens.</i>

831
00:28:57,700 --> 00:28:58,430
Yeah.

832
00:28:58,540 --> 00:28:59,740
Freddy, this is
Chief Patrick Li

833
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,510
from the Metropolitan Police.
Listen very carefully.

834
00:29:02,610 --> 00:29:04,650
We know your sister Veronica
has been kidnapped,

835
00:29:04,740 --> 00:29:06,810
and we think the abductors
have contacted you.

836
00:29:06,910 --> 00:29:08,480
I don’t know what
you’re talking about.

837
00:29:08,580 --> 00:29:09,820
Listen, Freddy,
this is Detective Ellis here.

838
00:29:10,850 --> 00:29:12,090
Now, I know you’re scared,
and I know

839
00:29:12,180 --> 00:29:13,780
<i>I’m just a voice on the phone,
but we are trying to save</i>

840
00:29:13,890 --> 00:29:15,130
your sister,
and we’re running out of time.

841
00:29:15,220 --> 00:29:17,460
If you want to see her again,
you’re gonna have to help us.

842
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:18,930
<i>Have they contacted you
to fix the race?</i>

843
00:29:19,620 --> 00:29:20,450
Uh, yes, they have.

844
00:29:21,790 --> 00:29:22,920
Is she- is she okay?

845
00:29:23,030 --> 00:29:25,500
<i> Yes, but we need to find
her as soon as possible.</i>

846
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,700
Now, tell me exactly
what they told you to do.

847
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:29,370
We’ve been making
tire stops all day.

848
00:29:29,470 --> 00:29:30,740
They don’t usually
last longer than 15 seconds,

849
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:33,540
but they told me to slow it down
by at least a second each time.

850
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,410
- And you’ve been complying?
- <i> Of course.</i>

851
00:29:35,510 --> 00:29:36,750
- I can’t let them hurt her.
- <i> Of course.</i>

852
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,380
You’re doing great, Freddy.
Get the race up on our monitor.

853
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,520
They told me this next stop
needs to be two seconds slower.

854
00:29:41,610 --> 00:29:42,440
That ain’t gonna be easy.

855
00:29:42,550 --> 00:29:43,920
Just do exactly what
they say, Freddy.

856
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:46,420
Yeah.
I’ll do whatever it takes.

857
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:49,820
<i>Crew stability.</i>

858
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:51,860
<i>You’re losing time
on turn four exit.</i>

859
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:53,460
Ten-four, man.
Pit this time.

860
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:55,560
Right side only, guys.
Nice and easy.

861
00:29:55,660 --> 00:29:56,860
We can’t lose anything
this stop.

862
00:30:00,430 --> 00:30:02,500
I gotta go.
Justin’s coming in for a stop.

863
00:30:04,570 --> 00:30:05,870
- Let’s go.
- Okay.

864
00:30:05,970 --> 00:30:07,870
<i> And it is
one heck of a race</i>

865
00:30:07,970 --> 00:30:09,770
<i>we have tonight, folks.</i>

866
00:30:09,870 --> 00:30:11,940
<i>Allgaier’s coming into the pit.</i>

867
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:13,940
<i>The 88 car hot on his tail.</i>

868
00:30:15,410 --> 00:30:17,850
<i>Allgaier’s pit has a very
tight turnaround here.</i>

869
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:20,650
<i>They need to get it back
out there immediately.</i>

870
00:30:20,750 --> 00:30:22,350
<i>Time is of the essence.</i>

871
00:30:23,790 --> 00:30:26,830
<i>And what an unbelievable race
we have here today, folks.</i>

872
00:30:26,930 --> 00:30:29,870
<i>This is neck and neck
competition.</i>

873
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,730
<i> Oh, and he dropped
a lug nut in the stop.</i>

874
00:30:32,830 --> 00:30:34,630
<i>That’s gonna cost him
two seconds.</i>

875
00:30:36,330 --> 00:30:37,360
<i>Justin’s crew chief</i>

876
00:30:37,470 --> 00:30:39,810
<i> gotta be sweating
something awful right now.</i>

877
00:30:39,900 --> 00:30:40,700
Good job, Freddy.

878
00:30:41,810 --> 00:30:42,910
<i> It’s a parlay.</i>

879
00:30:43,410 --> 00:30:44,410
Pardon?

880
00:30:44,510 --> 00:30:45,310
It’s a series of micro bets.

881
00:30:45,410 --> 00:30:46,810
Could be one game,
could be multiple

882
00:30:46,910 --> 00:30:48,010
across different sports.

883
00:30:48,110 --> 00:30:49,950
If you hit on all of your bets,

884
00:30:50,050 --> 00:30:51,890
you’re walking away
with a huge payday.

885
00:30:51,980 --> 00:30:53,110
How huge?

886
00:30:53,220 --> 00:30:55,490
The odds of you hitting on every
one of your micro-bets

887
00:30:55,590 --> 00:30:56,320
is astronomical.

888
00:30:56,420 --> 00:30:58,020
It’s like
betting on every shot

889
00:30:58,120 --> 00:30:59,960
in a championship game
and getting them all right.

890
00:31:00,060 --> 00:31:01,400
Simmons and I ran an estimate,

891
00:31:01,490 --> 00:31:03,990
and if you were to bet $10,000,
say, on Landon’s pitches,

892
00:31:05,100 --> 00:31:05,900
and on top of that,
you correctly picked

893
00:31:07,100 --> 00:31:07,900
the timing from every one
of Justin’s pit stops,

894
00:31:08,530 --> 00:31:08,900
The payout is--

895
00:31:09,630 --> 00:31:10,900
Over ten mil?

896
00:31:11,970 --> 00:31:12,740
I’m starting to think
crime does pay.

897
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:13,870
I have a city engineer.

898
00:31:13,970 --> 00:31:14,870
Yates, take that.

899
00:31:17,010 --> 00:31:17,980
Freddy.

900
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:19,920
<i>I just got benched.</i>

901
00:31:20,010 --> 00:31:21,810
That dropped
lugnut was our last chance.

902
00:31:21,910 --> 00:31:23,550
You got to get back in there,
Freddy.

903
00:31:23,650 --> 00:31:24,550
Hey. What happened?

904
00:31:24,650 --> 00:31:26,490
They just kicked Freddy
out of the pit.

905
00:31:26,580 --> 00:31:27,920
We’re down under 100 laps.

906
00:31:28,020 --> 00:31:29,620
That means there’s only
one pit stop left.

907
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:31,060
Freddy, how long
till the next stop?

908
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:32,690
Uh, about an hour.

909
00:31:32,790 --> 00:31:33,860
He says about an hour.

910
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,060
Which means we’ve only got
an hour to save Veronica.

911
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,000
<i> 97 laps to go here.
it’s been a hell of a race.</i>

912
00:31:43,100 --> 00:31:45,340
<i>Each team will need
one more pit stop.</i>

913
00:31:46,540 --> 00:31:48,840
Freddy, you got to get
back into the pit crew.

914
00:31:48,940 --> 00:31:50,680
Security won’t let me through!

915
00:31:50,780 --> 00:31:52,520
I got into it
with my crew chief.

916
00:31:52,610 --> 00:31:53,580
They tossed me off the track.

917
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:54,680
Let me talk to your boss.

918
00:31:54,780 --> 00:31:57,920
I can’t even get through
until the race is over!

919
00:31:58,020 --> 00:31:58,950
We got something.

920
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:00,910
Freddy. I’m gonna
put you on mute.

921
00:32:01,020 --> 00:32:02,050
I’m still here.
Hang tight.

922
00:32:02,990 --> 00:32:03,990
I talked to
the city engineer,

923
00:32:04,090 --> 00:32:05,660
cross-referencing all
the parameters we have.

924
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,060
He narrowed down the commercial
buildings that were built

925
00:32:09,090 --> 00:32:09,960
with cinder block
in the mortar style

926
00:32:10,060 --> 00:32:11,600
that Veronica talked about.

927
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:14,560
That leaves eight possible
buildings where she could be.

928
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:17,600
How many laps left in the race?

929
00:32:17,700 --> 00:32:18,400
Ninety-five!

930
00:32:18,500 --> 00:32:19,900
An average of 45 seconds a lap.

931
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,100
2,660 seconds.
45 minutes.

932
00:32:22,570 --> 00:32:23,810
What?

933
00:32:23,910 --> 00:32:25,110
I’m extra good at
math when I’m hungry.

934
00:32:26,180 --> 00:32:27,010
That doesn’t give
our TRT unit enough time

935
00:32:27,110 --> 00:32:28,550
to check out
all these buildings.

936
00:32:28,650 --> 00:32:29,680
Where’s the team right now?

937
00:32:29,780 --> 00:32:30,980
Here. They should be
entering any minute.

938
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,120
Okay. Instruct TRT to focus
on these five buildings.

939
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:35,020
Now, we’re close enough
to this section here.

940
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:36,250
I’ll hit these three buildings.

941
00:32:36,350 --> 00:32:37,790
They’re never going to be
able to make it there in time.

942
00:32:37,890 --> 00:32:39,090
Copy that.
Take Simmons with you.

943
00:32:39,190 --> 00:32:40,160
Okay. Let’s get suited up,
Simmons.

944
00:32:40,260 --> 00:32:41,530
I’ll meet you
at the car in five.

945
00:32:41,630 --> 00:32:42,760
TRT, this is Yates.

946
00:32:42,860 --> 00:32:43,930
What if they hurt my brother?

947
00:32:44,030 --> 00:32:44,730
<i> They won’t.</i>

948
00:32:44,830 --> 00:32:46,070
He’s at the track.
He’s safe.

949
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,130
I can’t imagine how scared
he’s been this whole time.

950
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:49,970
Are you two close?

951
00:32:50,070 --> 00:32:52,040
<i>Yeah. We’ve always been close.
He’s my little brother.</i>

952
00:32:53,500 --> 00:32:55,700
If I don’t get out of here, he
is never gonna forgive himself.

953
00:32:55,810 --> 00:32:56,680
You’re amazing.

954
00:32:57,810 --> 00:32:58,910
What do you mean?

955
00:32:59,010 --> 00:33:01,810
<i> Well, here you are,
kidnapped, alone and scared,</i>

956
00:33:01,910 --> 00:33:02,810
<i>and all you’re thinking about</i>

957
00:33:02,910 --> 00:33:04,510
<i> is how this is
affecting your brother.</i>

958
00:33:05,250 --> 00:33:06,380
You’re a good person.

959
00:33:08,050 --> 00:33:08,920
Max?

960
00:33:09,890 --> 00:33:11,060
Give me a sec, Veronica.

961
00:33:12,090 --> 00:33:14,090
Hey, where are we
with everything?

962
00:33:15,230 --> 00:33:15,930
We’ve narrowed down
the list of buildings,

963
00:33:16,030 --> 00:33:17,160
but we only have
45 minutes left.

964
00:33:18,030 --> 00:33:18,860
Okay, what about her brother?

965
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:20,030
He just got kicked out
of the pit crew.

966
00:33:20,130 --> 00:33:21,060
Oh, jeez.

967
00:33:21,830 --> 00:33:22,600
Just don’t tell her that.

968
00:33:22,700 --> 00:33:23,400
I won’t.

969
00:33:23,500 --> 00:33:24,870
Look, I gotta go, but I- I just

970
00:33:24,970 --> 00:33:26,540
wanted to come
here and tell you that...

971
00:33:27,940 --> 00:33:29,880
Veronica’s really lucky that
you picked up the phone today.

972
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:32,820
- Gotta go.
- Hey, Ellis?

973
00:33:33,780 --> 00:33:35,450
- Yeah?
- You have to find her.

974
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:37,410
Please.

975
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:45,690
Sorry about that.

976
00:33:45,790 --> 00:33:46,760
Is everything okay?

977
00:33:46,860 --> 00:33:50,000
Yeah. My partner is out there
looking for you.

978
00:33:50,090 --> 00:33:53,160
And trust me, there is no one
I believe in more

979
00:33:53,260 --> 00:33:54,860
to save the day than him.

980
00:33:56,300 --> 00:33:58,770
Well, if you think that about
him, he must be a special guy.

981
00:33:59,970 --> 00:34:00,700
He is.

982
00:34:01,610 --> 00:34:02,680
Okay.

983
00:34:02,770 --> 00:34:04,540
<i>All of this is reminding me
of a funny story.</i>

984
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:06,440
It’s summer of 2016

985
00:34:06,540 --> 00:34:10,210
and I’m in a hotel in Marrakesh
with a belly dancer

986
00:34:10,310 --> 00:34:12,480
and three drunk spider monkeys.

987
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:14,890
And the elevator gets stuck.

988
00:34:14,990 --> 00:34:17,630
Oh, and let me tell you, drunk
spider monkeys do not like--

989
00:34:17,720 --> 00:34:20,690
So yes, maybe it was a petty
reason to end a relationship,

990
00:34:20,790 --> 00:34:22,690
but maple syrup on popcorn?

991
00:34:22,790 --> 00:34:25,130
<i> I- I need a man,
not Buddy the Elf, okay?</i>

992
00:34:26,830 --> 00:34:27,700
Veronica?

993
00:34:28,930 --> 00:34:29,830
Are you there?

994
00:34:30,330 --> 00:34:31,260
I’m here.

995
00:34:31,370 --> 00:34:33,110
- Did I put you to sleep?
- <i> No.</i>

996
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:34,600
I’ve just been thinking.

997
00:34:35,810 --> 00:34:37,110
Why would they let me go?

998
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:39,210
You know the other person
you heard in there?

999
00:34:40,140 --> 00:34:41,040
They let him go.

1000
00:34:41,850 --> 00:34:42,780
- They did?
- <i> Yep.</i>

1001
00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:43,950
He’s safe and sound.

1002
00:34:44,580 --> 00:34:46,020
Okay, great.

1003
00:34:47,250 --> 00:34:48,890
One more down, Chief.

1004
00:34:48,990 --> 00:34:49,920
Ellis and Simmons just texted.

1005
00:34:50,020 --> 00:34:51,790
The first building on
their list is empty.

1006
00:34:51,890 --> 00:34:52,860
They’re on to the next.

1007
00:34:56,230 --> 00:34:57,770
I hear something.

1008
00:34:57,860 --> 00:34:59,200
They’re coming!
They’re coming!

1009
00:35:00,260 --> 00:35:01,560
I have to hide the phone.
Stay quiet, Max.

1010
00:35:15,180 --> 00:35:16,650
Move.

1011
00:35:19,820 --> 00:35:21,190
<i> Please don’t do this!</i>

1012
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:26,530
Hey. Smile.

1013
00:35:28,790 --> 00:35:30,830
<i> Chief Li?
Are you there?</i>

1014
00:35:30,930 --> 00:35:32,230
Freddy, I’m right here.

1015
00:35:32,330 --> 00:35:33,500
<i>I’m getting a call.</i>

1016
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:34,970
I think it’s the kidnappers.
What should I do?

1017
00:35:35,070 --> 00:35:36,810
Okay. Conference them in
so I can hear,

1018
00:35:36,900 --> 00:35:37,830
then answer it.

1019
00:35:41,010 --> 00:35:42,080
Hello?

1020
00:35:42,170 --> 00:35:44,240
Check your phone, Freddy.
I’m sending you a picture.

1021
00:35:49,350 --> 00:35:51,020
Just a reminder.

1022
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:52,290
Only one more pit stop

1023
00:35:52,380 --> 00:35:55,250
<i>and she can go home, as long as
you hold up on your end.</i>

1024
00:35:55,350 --> 00:35:57,250
They kicked me out of the
pit for slowing things down!

1025
00:35:58,290 --> 00:35:59,120
You better find a way
back in there,

1026
00:35:59,890 --> 00:36:01,090
or your sister dies.

1027
00:36:02,390 --> 00:36:03,260
Yates, where’s Ellis?

1028
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:04,730
I got him right here.
Hang on.

1029
00:36:06,100 --> 00:36:07,100
Ellis, where are you?

1030
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:08,740
<i> Yeah, the first
building’s empty.</i>

1031
00:36:08,830 --> 00:36:10,130
TRT is doing their part,
but we still got

1032
00:36:10,230 --> 00:36:11,260
<i>two more buildings to clear.</i>

1033
00:36:11,370 --> 00:36:13,270
<i> How many laps until he
comes in for a pit stop?</i>

1034
00:36:13,370 --> 00:36:15,010
How many laps
until the pit stop?

1035
00:36:15,110 --> 00:36:16,280
I don’t know!
No more than 20.

1036
00:36:16,370 --> 00:36:17,500
Twenty laps.

1037
00:36:17,610 --> 00:36:18,780
That’s not enough time to check
both buildings.

1038
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:20,320
- Well, we gotta choose one.
- Yeah? Which one?

1039
00:36:26,180 --> 00:36:28,080
Please. You don’t have
to do this.

1040
00:36:28,190 --> 00:36:29,060
You could just let me go.

1041
00:36:29,150 --> 00:36:30,990
Please. I promise
I won’t say anything.

1042
00:36:31,090 --> 00:36:33,330
If your brother comes through,
you’ll be going home.

1043
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:35,260
- If not...
- Please don’t do this.

1044
00:36:36,190 --> 00:36:36,860
Stay quiet until
the race is over.

1045
00:36:42,770 --> 00:36:43,740
Please don’t do this.

1046
00:36:43,830 --> 00:36:45,230
I don’t want to end up
a newspaper headline.

1047
00:36:45,870 --> 00:36:46,800
<i>I said shut up!</i>

1048
00:36:46,900 --> 00:36:47,800
<i> No.</i>

1049
00:36:49,110 --> 00:36:51,050
Max, we need to make a choice.

1050
00:36:51,140 --> 00:36:53,810
<i> Allgaier’s gonna
come in to pit on the next lap.</i>

1051
00:36:53,910 --> 00:36:55,250
They’re coming in
for the pit stop.

1052
00:36:55,950 --> 00:36:56,920
I know where she is.

1053
00:37:06,790 --> 00:37:08,190
This is it.
They call it a stop.

1054
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,300
Your brother’s got one last
chance to fix the big time.

1055
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:14,040
He’s been pulled.
There’s no way.

1056
00:37:14,130 --> 00:37:15,160
Then he better find a way.

1057
00:37:15,270 --> 00:37:17,710
<i> Guess we’ll see
how much he loves you.</i>

1058
00:37:20,100 --> 00:37:21,270
<i> All right, let’s go!</i>

1059
00:37:25,510 --> 00:37:26,910
<i>Nicely done! Let’s go!</i>

1060
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:31,920
<i> 6.7 seconds!</i>

1061
00:37:32,020 --> 00:37:34,960
<i> A great stop for the crew
and sends Allgaier back out--</i>

1062
00:37:35,050 --> 00:37:36,180
Son of a bitch!

1063
00:37:37,790 --> 00:37:39,390
Your brother just killed you.

1064
00:37:39,490 --> 00:37:40,860
No! Please!

1065
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:42,760
<i> Please!</i>

1066
00:37:44,830 --> 00:37:46,470
No! Please don’t shoot me!

1067
00:37:47,230 --> 00:37:48,430
<i> No! Please!</i>

1068
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:50,170
<i> Drop the weapon!</i>

1069
00:37:50,270 --> 00:37:51,940
<i></i> <i> Get down!</i>

1070
00:37:55,110 --> 00:37:56,240
Ellis, please!

1071
00:37:59,110 --> 00:38:01,050
<i> We got her. She’s okay.</i>

1072
00:38:01,150 --> 00:38:02,150
Oh. Thank God.

1073
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,020
Freddy, we got her.
Your sister’s safe.

1074
00:38:14,590 --> 00:38:17,060
<i> Justin has managed
to fight his way to only</i>

1075
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,360
<i> a half car
length behind the leader.</i>

1076
00:38:19,460 --> 00:38:20,360
<i>He’s going for it!</i>

1077
00:38:20,460 --> 00:38:23,930
<i> He dives low,

1078
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:27,210

1079
00:38:27,310 --> 00:38:30,950
<i> An unbelievable come-from-
behind win for Justin Allgaier!</i>

1080
00:38:35,310 --> 00:38:37,980
Sorry. I just
really needed to hug someone.

1081
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:40,150
It’s okay, I get it.

1082
00:38:52,130 --> 00:38:54,300
You’re safe now.
It’s over.

1083
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:57,130
Is this the phone you made?

1084
00:38:57,600 --> 00:38:58,970
Yeah.

1085
00:38:59,070 --> 00:38:59,970
Impressive.

1086
00:39:00,070 --> 00:39:01,440
It worked in a pinch.

1087
00:39:01,540 --> 00:39:02,670
If you’re up for it,

1088
00:39:02,770 --> 00:39:04,210
I think there’s somebody
who’d like to meet you.

1089
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:09,480
Hell of a day.

1090
00:39:09,580 --> 00:39:10,480
You can say that again.

1091
00:39:10,580 --> 00:39:11,850
You all right, Chief?

1092
00:39:12,580 --> 00:39:13,410
Just getting old, Max.

1093
00:39:14,150 --> 00:39:15,450
- Max?
- Veronica?

1094
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,560
I’m not hallucinating, right?
You’re real?

1095
00:39:22,930 --> 00:39:25,170
I... I don’t know
how to thank you.

1096
00:39:25,260 --> 00:39:26,230
No need to thank me.

1097
00:39:26,330 --> 00:39:29,070
Just so you know,
we’re gonna be besties now.

1098
00:39:29,170 --> 00:39:30,970
Obviously. Mani-pedis, stat.

1099
00:39:31,070 --> 00:39:32,410
Agreed.

1100
00:39:34,070 --> 00:39:36,340
So how’d you guys figure out
where Veronica was, anyway?

1101
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:38,310
Well, the last time
the kidnappers came,

1102
00:39:38,410 --> 00:39:39,540
they left
the door open a crack.

1103
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:41,510
I looked down the hall
and I saw the printing presses.

1104
00:39:42,780 --> 00:39:43,980
And when I heard her mention
that she was gonna be

1105
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:45,550
a newspaper headline, I knew
that she was giving me a clue

1106
00:39:46,850 --> 00:39:48,390
that she was in the old
City Gazette printing plant.

1107
00:39:49,350 --> 00:39:51,020
I was hoping you’d
pick up on that.

1108
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,290
Veronica? Your husband
is still in holding.

1109
00:39:53,390 --> 00:39:54,560
Well, we can keep him
for 24 hours

1110
00:39:55,490 --> 00:39:56,190
if you want
to make him sweat.

1111
00:39:56,290 --> 00:39:58,160
As much as I would enjoy that,

1112
00:39:58,260 --> 00:39:59,560
I don’t want to waste
one more second.

1113
00:40:00,630 --> 00:40:01,970
Bring me to that scumbag.

1114
00:40:03,170 --> 00:40:04,540
Toni, let’s take care of her.

1115
00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:05,370
Will do, Chief.

1116
00:40:06,240 --> 00:40:07,210
Thank you.

1117
00:40:09,170 --> 00:40:10,300
Listen up everyone.

1118
00:40:10,410 --> 00:40:12,880
Today we did what
we trained for.

1119
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:14,610
And then some.

1120
00:40:14,710 --> 00:40:17,610
Max, you kept Veronica calm,
and you stayed the course.

1121
00:40:18,780 --> 00:40:20,550
At one point, you talked
to me about protocol.

1122
00:40:21,250 --> 00:40:21,780
Wait, Max did that?

1123
00:40:22,250 --> 00:40:23,280
Yeah.

1124
00:40:23,390 --> 00:40:24,690
Really proud of all
the hard work we did today.

1125
00:40:24,790 --> 00:40:26,490
Working together.
The handoffs were seamless.

1126
00:40:27,430 --> 00:40:28,130
- It was like--
- A pit crew.

1127
00:40:29,330 --> 00:40:31,170
All right, well,
we’re still in our swanky duds.

1128
00:40:31,260 --> 00:40:34,300
So someone say drinks,
let’s say karaoke.

1129
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,100

Yates, you’re Baby Spice.

1130
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,370
Yeah. This baby needs
chicken pot pie and bed.

1131
00:40:39,470 --> 00:40:41,210
And not necessarily
in that order.

1132
00:40:41,310 --> 00:40:42,310
Well, I’m Scary Spice,

1133
00:40:42,410 --> 00:40:44,580
and I really, really,
really want to go home.

1134
00:40:45,780 --> 00:40:47,620
Sorry. I gotta get
the hell out of these pants.

1135
00:40:49,210 --> 00:40:52,210

know Mel C’s rap from Wannabe.

1136

1138

scare me like that?

1139
00:40:57,290 --> 00:40:58,590
I had it all under control,
okay?

1140
00:40:58,690 --> 00:40:59,420
I promise.

1141
00:41:00,590 --> 00:41:01,590
Can I give you a ride?

1142
00:41:01,690 --> 00:41:04,260
No. I have way too much
adrenaline from today.

1143
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:06,160
And I don’t want
this dress to go to waste.

1144
