He shot her. I don't know what to do. He just shot her.
He's here.
www.subtitulamos.tv
I know, I get it. I'm late.
Honestly, I didn't notice.
I got a ticket, and I did stop this time.
Was it a complete stop?
Not necessarily. That's poor time management.
By the sound of your voice, this is somehow my fault?
This get-out-of-jail-free card...
Not a get-out-of-jail-free card. That is a police consultant ID badge.
It's useless. I should just go back to flirting to get out of tickets.
- It doesn't work, but at least it's fun. - Or quit rolling through stop signs.
I don't need you to tell me what I should and shouldn't do
- with stop signs... - Morgan. Read the room.
You guys are so bad at pretending to work.
I should put on a clinic. What's going on?
Soto's up for captain. Slot's been open for a while.
Word is she's got the inside track.
Okay, that's exciting.
- Is that a good or a bad call? - I was just about to ask you.
That's not what you all thought. When I have news, I will tell you.
You two, come.
911 had a call a few minutes ago. You two should have the file.
Here's audio of the call.
He shot her.
I don't know what to do. He just shot her.
He's here.
Dispatch traced the call to the address of Raina Viera.
We could have two victims and a shooter on the loose. Go.
Raina Viera, you made a call to 911 about a shooting and an intruder in your home.
No.
I've already told the other officers, I made no such call.
Okay, well, we listened to the call, and it was traced to this address.
- Anyone else live here? - I live alone.
No one else was here. I don't know what else to tell you.
It wasn't me, and that's the end!
Except that it was.
Are you calling me a liar?
No, she's just calling you Gullah Geechee
from the coastal community in the southeast.
Yeah, beautiful accent, but it's also very rare.
In my life, I've only known one other person who had it.
My old boss at the DMV.
Her name was Pearl.
Lord, Morgan. I got to fire you, girl.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Oh, well, the picture over there of you
under the loblolly pines that are native to South Carolina,
plus your accent, which I've caught twice now...
And that's it.
...kinda prove that you did make that 911 phone call.
Well, unless having an accent is a crime, you can go.
And we will be happy to go, ma'am, as soon as we clear this up.
Would you mind if we just take a quick look at your cell phone?
Why would I lie about calling you?
We just want to make sure you're safe. That's it.
Well, if it'll make you leave, go ahead.
No 911 call.
- Weird. - Yeah.
Well, just real quick, for me,
just 'cause otherwise it's gonna drive me nuts the whole way home.
You have such a beautiful kitchen,
so what's up with these cheap pans on your stove?
You know, I have pans like that.
That makes sense for me, but it doesn't really fit into this kitchen.
Is she for real?
We're good here. We appreciate your cooperation.
She makes a call to 911 and then she denies it? What does that tell you?
That maybe she saw something, but now she's afraid to talk.
Yeah, exactly. So if someone's pressuring her to stay quiet, how do we leave now?
Because she told us to get out of her house
and she hasn't committed a crime, Morgan.
Patrol canvassed the area. No one saw or heard anything.
And my guy swept the place.
There's no sign of foul play and no intruder hiding inside.
- Right now she's safe. - Oh, what a relief.
I'll put in a request for unmarked surveillance outside the house.
Roman asked me to put eyes on you and Ava.
I sincerely wish you'd stop using my computer.
Maybe you should get a less guessable password.
I take it you're still worried about Raina Viera.
Of course I am. Soto getting surveillance approved helps.
She fast-tracked it, which actually took some juice.
Maybe it's a sign that Soto got the captain's gig.
- Really? - Yeah.
Okay, so if she moves up to captain, where do you go?
Probably in there as acting lieutenant.
Then who am I with?
- Someone else. - I don't want to be with someone else.
Unless it's Oz or Daphne.
- They're already partners. - I can just work with them.
There's no throuples in law enforcement, Morgan.
Well, that's just a failure of imagination.
Yeah. Look, I get it.
A mind like yours, everything is organized chaos.
So when things outside your control change, it's disruptive.
I don't like it.
If there is a transition, it will be smooth.
We'll make it work.
'Kay.
Karadec.
We did everything we could, Morgan.
Did we? It wasn't enough.
Daphne's finishing up with the neighbors.
So far, no one saw or heard anything suspicious.
No signs of gunshot wounds or other damage.
Looks like she just fell and hit her head.
Well, Raina had three missed calls from somebody named Lucy.
- Let's find out who that is. - Yeah, will do.
- Uh. - I got my own "uh" down here.
Oh, yeah? You first.
Raina's got a stain on the back of her shirt.
Doesn't look like dried blood. Dirt maybe, right in the middle of her back.
I doubt she put it there.
I zip myself into enough dresses. That's a tough spot to reach.
Yeah, my thinking exactly. Your turn.
Well, when you're about to eat it at the top of the stairs,
you grab the banister, right?
Look at all the rings on her hands.
There'd be scratches, but there's not.
So either she jumped or somebody pushed her.
Raina witnessed a murder and somebody killed her
- before she could finish reporting it. - So where's that crime scene?
According to the neighbors, there was a wild party across the street.
Let's start there.
This place doesn't look so good.
So, rough night?
- Just a few people over for a hang. - You mean a couple of dozen people.
Throw in some alcohol, things get out of hand.
Maybe someone left worse than they came.
Or maybe they didn't leave at all.
I don't know what you think happened here, man, but...
Any guns in the house, Logan?
Because we received a 911 call from your neighbor about a shooting.
And we're starting to wonder if maybe they got shot here.
Maybe a drug deal gone bad?
Drug deal? Based on what?
How about not judging the cover of a person without reading the book?
Oh, boy. It was close.
No, not judging, just noticing.
The unicorn sticker on your mailbox
signaling to your customers that you're open for business.
Customers like that jittery guy out there
just circling around on his bike,
waiting for us to leave so he can come in and you can sell him drugs.
Drugs that I'm guessing are in that drawer that you looked at
when I mentioned your drugs.
Yeah, there they are.
Logan!
Right behind ya!
- Yo, yo, yo. Give me the bike. - Dude!
Sorry, man.
Logan!
So, Logan, here's what we're thinking. Someone died at your party.
Raina had a front-row seat, and you killed her.
I didn't kill anybody.
And Raina, bro, I was helping her.
Helping her how?
You were her dealer.
I don't identify by that characterization.
I'm a legit unlicensed neighborhood pharmacist.
- Okay, so, drug dealer. - No.
I rob Peter to treat Paul
when the system denies the meds people need.
- And, what did Raina need? - Migraine meds.
She fell on hard times, lost her insurance, couldn't afford the meds.
So I hooked her up. I really liked that lady. I would never hurt her.
Logan, around 9:30 this morning, Raina made a 911 call reporting a murder.
- Where were you? - With Raina.
She was showing me some stuff in her basement, things she could sell for bills.
Then I get a call from Bones, so I popped upstairs.
I hang up with him and then Raina comes back upstairs.
And she made no mention of a 911 call or witnessing a murder?
- No, I swear. She was completely calm. - What time did you talk to Bones?
Probably around the same time y'all got that 911 call, 9:30 or so.
Okay, so Raina calls 911
while witnessing a murder from her basement?
That seems weird.
Yeah, assuming Logan's telling us the truth.
But I think I have a way to check his timeline.
Black light, uh?
What are you looking for? Is this like a fluid situation?
No, it's not. There's no way Raina witnessed a murder in here
- unless it happened in here. - Okay, so Logan might be lying.
I don't know, but if we can find his fingerprints down here,
it means he could be telling the truth.
Instead of waiting a day or two for Forensics to dust and process prints...
You are bending the rules. Look at you.
Logan's behavior tells me he's got a ton of drugs in his system.
That changes the way fingerprints look under a black light.
They shine brighter than normal. You see the difference?
Yeah.
Yeah, I can almost guarantee the glowing print is Logan's,
which puts him here in the basement, but in order to clear him as a suspect,
we have to place him upstairs at 9:30.
My turn.
Do you remember the four beeps in the 911 call?
Yeah, it was faint, but I heard it.
I don't know what to do. He shot her.
Okay, I think that was Raina's bougie coffee maker.
Yeah, she was drinking a cup when we walked in.
I think it was set to turn on at 9:30 in the morning,
but the thing is, coffee makers like these beep eight times when the pot is ready.
I've had some really bad bosses with great taste in coffee.
- But we only heard four beeps. - That's right.
Somebody turned the alarm off, and I think that someone was Logan.
This proves Logan was here at 9:30,
so she definitely made that 911 call from down here.
Okay, but why? What could she have seen from the basement?
Let's see.
Who are you? Oh, look.
- 2007's calling. - Raina had a second phone.
- Yeah, but without cell service. - That doesn't matter.
Since '96, the FCC requires that all cell phones,
active or not, have the capability to call 911.
- You knew that already, didn't you? - Yeah, I did.
I was hoping you did too, 'cause I thought it'd be nice to let you have this one.
Appreciate it.
Okay, she turned it on from here, made the call from here.
But why? What did she see?
Three boxes of brand-new cheap pots and pans?
Buy one, get two free?
No, she needed them as backups 'cause she kept burning hers.
She was leaving the stove on,
and she was also putting items from her kitchen in the wrong spots.
The pills she was taking weren't for migraines.
Those pills also treat early onset dementia.
So Raina wasn't lying when she said she didn't make the 911 call.
- She just didn't remember. - Dementia can rob you of your memories
but can also jumble them all up
so new memories can get lost and old ones can resurface.
But something would've had to trigger it.
So you think while she was looking for stuff to sell,
maybe something set her off.
Yeah, I think so. And, honestly, it really could be anything.
It could be a smell or a sound.
Morgan.
Or a bloodstained dress.
- That looks like a trigger to me. - Yeah, that would do it.
So Raina did witness a murder.
The question is: when did she see it?
So Raina witnessed a murder. We just don't know when it happened.
If we can date the dress, we can date the cold case.
The earliest age most people start to form memories
is around three or four.
Given Raina's age, we can rule out any cases prior to 1975.
That's 50 years of cold cases.
15,320 cases, give or take.
Someone needs to whittle that down.
Didn't you tell me one time that vintage is your love language, Morgan?
I've never once said "love language" to you, but I can take a crack at it.
Lot of staring. Everybody just staring right at me.
Yeah, a little space. Thank you.
I need a lighter.
You just asked for space. Now you need a lighter?
Yeah, I'm a complex woman. Can I have a lighter, please?
This fabric has a slight shine to it.
It's not as glossy as satin, but it's more polished than cotton.
I think it might be Tencel.
- Anything else? - Yeah, some scissors.
You do know this is evidence, right, Morgan?
Yeah. Yeah. You should probably turn around.
Yep, burns quick and clean.
This is Tencel, which was not available until 1985.
Now the fabric is just the first clue.
Is the US registered identification number the second?
It most certainly is, Daphne.
Okay, 178549.
This dress was manufactured by Cibrian Creations,
but they went out of business in 2015.
Okay, you guys know when they started putting tags in clothes?
In 1971, manufacturers had to provide clear instructions
so that people wouldn't screw up their clothes when they were doing laundry.
In 1998, the FTC approved the use of symbols.
The care tag in this dress, it's all symbols.
The final piece of the puzzle is the one that's missing.
There's no barcode. There's no inventory number.
This dress was made before the year 2000.
See, I like this staring.
That time frame leaves us with 200 cases.
Yeah, but Raina's 911 call, she said the person was shot.
And then there were nine. No, that's not it.
Okay, only one case had a victim wearing a dress that looks a lot like Raina's.
Greta St. John, 25-year-old black woman, up-and-coming singer,
last seen New Year's Eve 2000 at a club called the Black Jewel.
She was found across town in an alley.
Died of a gunshot wound to the chest,
but no weapon found at the scene,
no witnesses, not many suspect interviews.
The ME didn't even list a clear time of death.
The ME noted powder burns and shrapnel on her right side
but did very little about it.
This case didn't get any attention.
Young Black woman found on the wrong side of town.
Let me guess, it wasn't a top story on the evening news.
Okay, so 25 years ago, Raina witnessed the murder of Greta St. John.
And then was killed before she could tell us what she knew.
It stands to reason that Raina and Greta were killed by the same person,
likely someone who knew them both.
According to the file, there was a guy named Eddie Friedman
who managed the Black Jewel at the time of the murder.
Go look, see what he knows.
Lucy, the woman that called Raina three times, just got back to me.
- She's willing to talk to us. - Divide and conquer.
You guys track down Eddie. We'll talk to Lucy.
Copy that.
What can you tell us about Greta St. John?
She had a voice like no other.
The New Year's Eve show was her moment.
She was about to go big.
- And did that rub anyone the wrong way? - Oh, yeah. Raina Viera.
So, Lucy, how did Raina and Greta know each other?
They were rivals at the Black Jewel.
Raina was a singer too, but she didn't like talking about Greta all too much.
Any specific reason why?
I met Raina when I photographed her
for a piece I did in Static Vinyl magazine.
It was about lost voices of the '90s.
Talented women who just never really broke in
to the cutthroat LA music scene.
I think it was hard for Raina to talk about Greta.
She defied the odds when Raina hadn't.
Greta's evolution as an artist was...
something else.
It made sense to all of us why her star was rising.
During that New Year's Eve show, everyone knew who the star was.
This doesn't really sound like an artist on her way up.
You're right. See, that was Greta before.
And this...
is Greta after.
Oh, wow. That hardly sounds like the same woman.
So this song was recorded after something happened. What was it?
Mac Epps.
His name came up in my research.
He was Greta's manager at first, but then he started working with Raina,
and now he owns the Black Jewel.
So two rivals and the same manager? Sounds like a bad idea.
Did Raina ever talk about Epps?
Not really, but I did get the sense that she blamed him
for her career never taking off.
He was shady. After Epps got arrested on a drug charge,
Greta found her voice, I mean, literally and figuratively.
But after Epps got out, he wanted to be a part of it.
- Did Greta give in to his demands? - No, and he didn't take it well.
He started harassing her.
The rumor was the only reason he started managing Raina
was to get close to Greta.
He was using Raina as a pawn.
I think Raina realized he wasn't really interested in her career.
Then why didn't she leave?
He was a dangerous man with powerful friends, even then.
And that's why Greta wanted nothing to do with him.
He turned her family's life upside down for decades.
It explains why everyone was radio silent
during the original investigation into Greta's murder.
I should have told the cops what I knew back then,
but I was scared.
We all were.
If you have any photos or videos
from the Black Jewel that we could borrow, that'd be helpful.
You bet. I have more than you could ever want or need.
Lucy, we think Raina may have been keeping a secret that got her killed.
Do you have any idea what that could be?
No, I have no idea who would want to hurt her.
I can't believe she's gone.
She and I got really... close.
She was like a second mother to me.
We're gonna find who did this.
_
The mailbox is full and cannot accept any messages at this time.
How long till the lab gets back to us with the results on that stain?
Oh, a lot longer than we'd like. But you know what's faster than the lab?
Me?
Can I have everyone's attention, please?
You may have heard that I was up for the captain's chair.
Turns out you're stuck with me.
Don't be so disappointed.
Right now, all I know is they're bringing someone in from another squad,
but no matter who the captain is,
I expect you to treat him with the same respect you treat me.
You're still my squad.
Continue to do me proud just like you always do.
Let's get back to work.
- It's not fair. - Should have been you.
Clearly they don't know who keeps things on the rails around here.
I appreciate all that.
Why are you being so cool right now? I hate this.
What are this new guy's qualifications? I'm assuming it's a guy.
Statistically, yes.
But you know what I hate?
Unsolved cases. We have two right now.
So how about we focus on who killed Greta and Raina.
So, suspects?
Well, Eddie Friedman alibied out.
He was at Corbyn Lanes with his bowling league.
Lucy Hastings was at a photo shoot at Griffith Park.
She was alone, but her pictures were time-stamped.
That leaves Mac Epps as our prime suspect.
He's built an empire,
a mix of illicit and legitimate businesses, including the Black Jewel.
Yeah, and he had a motive to kill Greta because she was about to blow up
and wasn't taking him with her.
What about Raina? Does he look good for her murder too?
Raina moved into her current home shortly after Greta's death.
No way she bought that house in her 20s unless she won the lottery.
Which is why we looked at the deed.
The first few years, Mac Epps's name was on it.
It was either a gift or more likely a payment for her silence.
A silence she maintained until a dementia-induced episode
led her to reveal the truth.
Any indication Epps knew that could be a possibility?
Well, we dug up CCTV footage from outside of the Black Jewel
a few days ago and we found this.
That is Mac Epps.
Yeah, doesn't look like a friendly reunion.
No, it looks like a motive for murder.
I think it's time to visit the Black Jewel.
I know your silences, Morgan.
My silences? It's not a thing.
It's a thing.
You get quiet a lot.
You got family-drama quiet, a little furrow of the brow
and you start messing with your cuticles like you're trying to dig up a secret.
There's case-frustration quiet, clenching of the jaw
and your eyes start scanning like you're mentally breaking apart the crime scene.
There's the pissed-at-me quiet. That's a classic.
It's a stone-cold stare and a little flare of the nostrils.
And then we've got this one right here,
which is the something-you-want-to-say quiet.
Pursing of the lips, distant look.
Whatever.
I'm just worried about Soto, aren't you?
Have you talked to her?
No. I don't plan to.
- That's it? - Every cop's wired differently.
If she wanted to open up to me, she would.
Okay, so your silence is just "do nothing, say nothing."
Yeah.
Well, it's dumb, and I don't care for it.
- Right back to the pissed-at-me quiet. - All right.
Mr. Epps isn't expecting you, so I have to ask him if it's okay.
It's okay because I said it's okay. Okay?
You know what? Just let him do his thing.
Otherwise he's gonna pull his badge out,
get all showy. It's pretty annoying.
- Hey, boss. We got... - Mac Epps.
- Detective Karadec, LAPD. This is my... - Yo, my man.
I don't really care who you are or whatever she is.
Let me tell you how we do it in the Black Jewel.
Make an appointment, come back during office hours. Cool?
- Yeah, I don't think so. - Oh, you can't.
Assaulting an officer is a serious charge, son.
I tried to warn you, didn't I? I just... I just warned him.
Thank you. Hi.
- Hi, I'm Morgan. - Hi.
- Can I scooch? - Yeah.
I'm Julie. I love this jacket.
Girl, I see you, your style is everything.
- Thank you. - Yeah.
- Is this for everyone? - You know what?
I asked the same thing when I got here and I didn't get an answer,
- so I've just been going in. - You just jumped right in anyway?
- You got to. - I like your style too.
Do me a favor. Ask your questions and go.
Two names. Greta St. John, Raina Viera.
- What about 'em? - They're both dead, Mac.
Greta for 25 years, case still cold.
Raina, about 36 hours or so.
I mean, you got anything to say about that, Mac?
Nah, nothing.
That's interesting because you managed both of them.
Matter of fact, you bought Raina a house
shortly after Greta was murdered.
Suspicious timing, you know?
One thing has nothing to do with the other.
I made a deal with Raina. A big one.
I got the rights to her music in exchange for the house.
But you know what? I lost my ass on that deal.
Her career never took off,
but I let her have the place
out of the goodness of my heart.
That's nice.
Speaking of your heart, you were more than Greta's manager.
She had a compass tattoo on her wrist, and I see that North Star.
Perfect match.
Two tools of navigation.
The compass leads the way. The North Star holds steady.
That's so romantic.
So maybe Greta wasn't just walking away from your business.
Maybe she was walking away from you.
Something personal went down after that New Year's Eve celebration.
Ball drops, confetti flies, and then maybe a few hours later, the next day...
You know what? I've heard enough.
Now, either y'all leave now, or I'ma tag my lawyer in on this.
JJ Pierce. They call him "The Badge Collector."
Heard of him?
I haven't heard of JJ.
- Have you heard of nickel dermatitis? - No.
It's a reaction to cheap metals like the ones that are in foil confetti.
When I saw pictures of Greta before midnight,
her skin was so smooth and clear, beautiful.
But at midnight, the ball dropped and so did the confetti.
And wherever the confetti landed on her skin, there were hives.
Nickel can trigger hives very quickly, in under a minute.
They were still there in the autopsy photos.
You put all that together, and what I'm saying is,
Greta was murdered in this club
just a few hours after midnight.
I'm done talking.
Well, we're not done digging.
I have a feeling we'll see you again real soon.
And next time, put out some little share plates.
- It's less confusing and more sanitary. - Morgan.
See how many times I put my fingernails in there?
I just got a call from Epps's lawyer, JJ Pierce.
What does The Badge Collector have to say?
That if we ever go back to the Black Jewel without a warrant,
he will add to his collection.
Well, this is interesting.
Soto, look at this picture.
And this one a week later.
And then this one a month after that.
Do you see what I see?
- She had a baby. - She had a baby.
I don't get it.
Yeah, well, that doesn't surprise me.
Love you, LA.
Nobody really teaches you about women's bodies.
People think the party returns when the pregnancy ends,
but being postpartum sucks.
Look, she's got a splint on 'cause she had mommy wrist.
Repetitive hand and wrist movements while holding a baby can do that.
She ditched the heels 'cause you're not hauling around a kid
and a diaper bag in high heels. That's just dumb.
And then she started styling her hair differently because it was falling out.
All of these are symptoms of that three-month period after a baby's born.
It's called the fourth trimester.
And then when Epps was behind bars, Greta really found herself.
I think it's because she became a mom, and to protect her child,
she had to hide that baby from a dangerous father.
She had Epps's baby, and when he eventually found out about the child,
there was a confrontation and he killed her.
How do we prove he pulled the trigger? That gun is long gone.
But maybe it left something behind.
Here's what I'm thinking.
Look at all these pictures of Epps. Do you see his right hand?
- Do you notice anything? - Yeah, New Year's Eve, no scar.
New Year's Day, a bandaged hand.
He hurt himself that night.
That's right. And Greta's autopsy photos, the right side of her face.
- Powder burns on her jaw. - Yeah, given to her from Epps's gun.
He shot her in the chest,
but that wouldn't have caused the powder burn on her face,
so he fired again.
But that wouldn't have caused the scar on his hand.
An explosion would.
The only way a gun explodes is by firing it after it was jammed.
So the first shot was to her chest,
the second shot was a jam,
and the third shot exploded,
ripping through his hand,
and burning her face.
And Raina witnessed the entire thing.
What did you do?
Which explains the blood on Raina's dress.
Greta!
That scar puts the murder weapon in Epps's hand.
Looks like The Badge Collector's about to get his warrant.
I'll get it within the hour.
You go back to the club, I'll get Daphne and Oz to go to his home.
- You stay here. - What? No, I'm coming with you.
- Morgan, it's not safe. - I will be fine.
Karadec, I need to see the look on his smug face
when he finds out we got him for murder.
I cannot risk you getting hurt in a raid.
I'll bring in Greta's killer. You find her child.
Fine, but when you get him...
You'll see his smug face when I put him in the box. Promise.
Excuse me. Move, move. Excuse me.
Epps!
Outta the way. Move, move. Excuse me. Outta the way.
Let me go!
- Put the gun down, Epps! - Nah, I like where it is.
The place is surrounded. The only way out for you is in cuffs.
You must be crazy if you think I'm going back inside.
You should have thought about that before you killed Greta St. John.
Greta got exactly what she deserved.
You tell me what kind of woman
keeps a man from his child?
For years, I searched everywhere.
You stand down right now and I promise you
I will do everything I can to help you find your child.
It's too late! You stand down,
or she's gonna end up just like Greta.
If you do that, Mac, you leave me no choice but to respond.
I'd rather be carried by six than tried by 12.
Let's see who blinks first.
Who's that guy? I don't like him from out here.
- Internal Affairs. - What?
You discharge your weapon, it's a big deal.
He saved Julie's life, and it's not like he killed the guy.
Doesn't matter. This is the process.
Well, should I be worried?
Epps killed Greta. I think he killed Raina.
You can't expect me to just sit at home.
It's policy.
You have to be cleared by behavior science section before you can return to work.
Come on, Solomon. You know how long it takes to get an appointment.
It's my job to make sure you follow the rules,
not help you break them.
Okay, fine. So call and get me on the books first thing.
- That is not breaking the rules. - No, but it's bending them.
And that is not my style.
It used to not be yours.
I wouldn't ask if it wasn't important.
Every case is important, Adam.
I'm sorry. Policy is policy.
Doesn't policy say that we withhold judgments
and investigate every case to the fullest extent of the law?
That didn't happen for Greta St. John.
If the job had been done right, I wouldn't have had to pull that trigger,
and Raina Viera would still be alive because Mac Epps would have been in prison
and not out running the streets.
What does policy say about that?
Just this once I will make the call.
Thank you. Whatever time they have, I'll be there.
Then go with Morgan to the impound.
Check Epps's car for anything tying him to Raina's murder.
Yeah.
I've heard some things about this consultant.
Then you know how invaluable she is.
Her value comes with a lot of things that make me nervous.
Kind of nervous that has me looking at your reports a bit more often.
What happens with my squad is none of your business.
Till it is.
Good night, Selena.
Pretty clean car for such a giant dirtbag.
Let's just hope we find something in here that helps us prove he killed Raina.
Hey, you okay?
I'm fine. Why?
Because you just shot somebody yesterday.
You don't go from that to fine in 24 hours.
I told you it was a clean shot. IA will clear me.
I'm not worried about your badge. I'm worried about you.
Typically when someone pretends that something big doesn't matter,
it means that it really does.
You and Soto are doing a lot of pretending that you're fine.
A cop's worst nightmare is having to discharge their weapon.
Yeah, I bet.
How many times have you done that?
Three.
But I never hit anyone till now.
Epps had a gun pressed to a young woman's temple.
He'd killed before, would have had no problem doing it again,
so I had exactly two options.
Let him go or shoot him.
Knowing that if I missed...
You might kill the person you're trying to protect.
How'd you do that? Weren't you worried you might accidentally hit her?
Every morning I start my day at the gun range.
Discipline.
Repetition.
Endless hours focused on one thought.
What would I do if a day like yesterday ever came?
I'd seen that shot in my mind
every day for the last 20 years, and I took it.
I knew I wouldn't miss.
_
Check this out. Some kind of pass.
Monday is when Raina was killed.
It's a visitor's pass to a federal prison.
So Epps was visiting a prison on Monday.
California's got 13 federal prisons.
I'll have Daphne and Oz start calling each one.
Are there any near the Mojave Desert? 'Cause that's where this car was.
Yucca moth.
They're dependent on Joshua trees for survival.
So if one hit Epps's windshield,
this car was in the Mojave.
The only one out that way is Victorville,
but it's a two-hour drive.
Epps confessed to killing Greta 25 years ago.
But if he was two hours away in the desert when Raina was killed...
Then he's not our guy.
All right, so...
Raina helped Epps cover up Greta's murder.
Which is why we've been thinking Epps pushed Raina down the stairs
to keep Greta's murder a secret.
But the prison in Victorville confirmed he was there at the time of Raina's murder.
That means Raina and Greta were killed
by two different people 25 years apart.
Okay, so if Raina's murder wasn't about keeping secrets,
maybe it was about revenge.
You're thinking someone found out Raina's role
in Greta's murder and then killed her.
Yep, so now we need to be thinking about family members.
Maybe even Greta's child. We still have no idea what happened to the baby.
Well, there was no record of Greta giving birth in LA.
- She could've used an alias. - Or given birth somewhere else entirely,
making it nearly impossible to find her child.
Well, hang on, I think I know exactly what happened to Greta's kid.
And to Raina.
Detective, Ms. Gillory, is there news about Raina's case?
Yes, we've had a big break actually.
Thought you'd like to know.
We finally know who killed her.
That's great.
It's you.
What?
I loved Raina.
That might be true, but you also killed her.
I couldn't have killed her. I told you I was at work.
Right. You said that, at the time of the murder,
you were taking pictures at Griffith Observatory.
With one of your cameras that has the built-in time stamp.
You know what's more reliable than a time stamp?
The sun.
A couple cool things about the Griffith Observatory.
The observation deck has these bronze lines built into it,
and it shows you the position of the sun in the sky throughout the year.
And that weird ring sculpture with the wire through it,
that's actually a sundial.
So your time stamp said you took those pictures at noon on a Monday,
but the sun tells me they were taken around 3 p.m.-ish last December.
This is crazy.
- No, it's not crazy. - It's science.
And we can prove you're the one that pushed Raina.
Raina had a smudge on the back of her shirt,
drove my partner here crazy.
Yeah, I couldn't figure out what that stain was.
So once again, your profession was your undoing.
Turns out it was silver nitrate,
something photographers like yourself use when you're developing pictures.
You must have had a small amount of it on your hands when you pushed her.
The only question was why would she do that?
Why would you kill Raina? You said she was like a second mother to you.
We're guessing that all went out the window as soon as you realized
that she was lying to you about your actual mother,
Greta St. John.
The last time we were here,
you said that Epps terrorized Greta's family for decades.
It's not something you would know, Lucy, not unless you were family.
Unless you were the reason that Greta made all those sacrifices.
I just came here searching for answers about what happened to my mom.
Yes, I found Raina, and I kept my identity a secret.
But then she...
started having all these episodes,
because of her dementia.
And that's when she confessed to me that she was a part of covering up my mom's death.
But she wouldn't give you the whole story.
No, and... I find out that Mac Epps is my dad,
and that he probably killed her.
So I just wanted Raina to tell me the truth about what happened.
So I did. I confronted her,
but then she just... she flipped out on me,
threatened to never speak to me again.
I snapped.
Look, I swear.
I swear I did not mean to kill her.
Lucy, we got justice for your mom,
and now we have to do the same thing for Raina.
Oh, my God.
You're under arrest for the murder of Raina Viera.
Come on. This way.
Seriously, Gillory? We can get you a computer.
I'll go get it myself.
How am I gonna make you nervous about your search history
if I'm on my own computer?
You were right.
I'm sorry. Could you say that again? I didn't hear you.
What was I right about?
I've been taking care of myself for a long time.
So long that sometimes I forget what it's like to have somebody looking out for me.
You were right about me not going to the Black Jewel.
Certain things a police consultant does not need to be around.
- You were right too. - Oh, yeah?
My "do nothing, say nothing" silence,
it's not optimal.
You have no plans to change that, do you?
Well, I don't need to. I've got you.
Something else?
Yeah, one last thing.
You're allowed to be pissed with me.
- Morgan, what did you do? - Nothing.
No, I didn't mean you're allowed to be pissed at me.
You can. You're my boss.
You can do whatever you want, but that's not what I'm talking about.
I feel like I lost track of this conversation before it started.
Despite your overwhelming qualifications,
you were passed over for captain.
And I have to assume that part of you wonders
if that has anything to do with you being a woman.
- Because if it were me... - You would have gone scorched earth.
Oh, absolutely, and I would have loved every single second of it,
so they're lucky that you're not me.
You're you.
You gotta be strong for everybody out there.
I understand that.
One of the beautiful things about me not being a cop is...
Is that I can be pissed with you.
Anything you need.
Anytime you need it.
I could just be your friend.
I'm pissed. It should have been me.
Yeah.
This never happened.
I never even cared in the first place. I don't know what you're talking about.
- Hi. - Hi.
All I want is to enter my house justified.
Okay.
It's just a line from an old western I love.
It's a line from the Bible.
That's right, it is. Peckinpah stole it.
Anyway, it's my clumsy way of saying
you look like somebody who's proud of a good day's work.
Thank you. I am.
I'm also so tired I might fall asleep in my car.
All I want is to fall asleep in my car justified.
So what's someone like you doing in a police station?
Trying to get that mustache to make sense?
That's good.
I've heard about you.
- Excuse me? - Morgan Gillory, right?
Major Crime's secret weapon.
I didn't mean to freak you out. I've just been looking forward to meeting you.
Okay.
- Are you not getting off? - Nah, I was supposed to get off at three.
I just wanted to finish our conversation.
Third floor.
That's Command.
So it is.
Nick Wagner.
Your new captain.
