And I want a bike,
an electric keyboard,
walkie-talkies,
a smartwatch,
a basketball hoop
and a PS5.
Mm.
You want to write this down?
Eh, it's all up here.
We'll see what we can do.
Ain't that right, Twinkles?
Just might need
a bigger sleigh.
Okay, should we take this photo
so the other children have
some time with Santa?
How about you
let me finish?
Careful. That's how you end up
on the Naughty List.
Please. There's no such thing.
Great.
Okay, "Christmas tree"
on three, right?
One, two,
three.
Christmas tree.
Christmas tree.
Great!
Off you pop.
There you go.
Lovely kid you got there.
Okay, everybody,
sorry, but Santa needs
a ten-minute cookie break.
You know how
hangry he gets.
We'll be back in a jiff.
Oh, man.
They don't make kids
like they used to.
Mm-hmm.
Plus, I think this...
this beard's getting me a rash.
I'm sorry.
The pawnshop is in a blind spot
on the mall security cameras,
so going incognito is the only
way we can keep an eye on it
without drawing suspicion.
Well, I hope your
ridiculous plan works,
because I've been
sitting here for hours
and no sign of our guy yet.
He's a bail jumper, right?
So punctuality
isn't exactly his forte.
The texts that I hacked
were perfectly clear--
he was gonna be here by 10:00.
So it's nearly 10:00, so...
Well, whatever
contraband he's buying,
it was worth it to
skip court for,
so you would think
the guy would show up.
Ah, speak of the devil.
Okay, I'll approach.
You cover.
Hey, Barry.
They missed you in court today.
You're here to take me in?
Yeah, yeah. 'Fraid so.
Okay.
Well, you got me.

♪
Okay, Kumu,
give it to me straight.
How bad is it?
Well,
on the bright side,
um,
there's less to decorate.
Well, what'd you expect?
It's Christmas Eve.
I didn't exactly have
the pick of the litter.
Mm.
Damn, Charlie Brown.
Is that the only tree
you could find?
And a Merry Christmas
to you, sir.
Oh, I'm just kidding, man.
Place looks great.
And we come bearing gifts.
Yes.
And groceries.
Oh.
Ooh!
Were you able to find
the banana leaves okay?
Yeah, at store number three.
But it's the least we could do
with you making dinner
for the whole crew.
Hey, I was telling TC
that kalua pork's my favorite.
Oh, well,
then you're in for a treat.
Assuming I can actually, uh,
start cooking anytime soon.
Wait.
You ain't dig the firepit yet?
I've been trimming
this tree, man.
You know...
I'm just gonna say it.
Let's order pizza.
Or save some of the digging
for Thomas.
True that.
Hey, man.
Can I ask how you're doing?
You can ask.
I'm not sure I can answer.
Look, we lost
a lot of people before.
What happened
to Robbie,
now, that's just... different.
Yeah. I miss him. Every day.
And I'm sad that he's gone,
but, uh...
I'm just grateful to be
surrounded by family right now.
You know we're here for you,
right?
Yeah, and I'm happy you
brought this kid along, too.
You come to help?
Uh... no.
Ms. Tuileta just wanted me
to bring you some lemonade.
Take that.
Oh, yeah.
Thank you.
And, uh, and to tell you that
if the imu isn't ready soon,
there'll be
no pig tonight.
Roger that.
Loud and clear.
So, you guys do this every year?
The decorations? The pig roast?
The secret Santa?
Well, there is one tradition
we should probably
warn you about.
Oh, nah, he's just a kid.
Yeah, but it's
a rite of passage.
I don't know if he needs
to suffer through that.
What is it?
I call it a Higgy pudding.
This year, I decided
to make a few extra
and hand them out to people.
Right. And it's...
black licorice and...Basil.
It's an unusual flavor profile,
but, you know,
no risk, no reward.
And it always goes down
really well, doesn't it, Magnum?
Yeah, they are
always... memorable.
Gordie!
Whatever this is,
I don't have time for it.
Gordon, what about
your holiday spirit?
This is my holiday spirit.
Take it in.
The most wonderful time
of the year.
The crime rate spikes,
and half the force
is off duty.
Wow, you really do have
your hands full.
Yet, somehow, I sense you're
about to ask me for a favor.
Good instincts.
This is our
skip, Barry.
I'd shake your hand, but...
Oahu Correctional is full,
so we were hoping maybe you
could process and hold him?
Give me a minute,
I'll see what I can do.
Thanks, Gordie.
All right, come on, Barry.
This way.
What are you still
doing here?
Thought you were gonna
cook dinner for your mom.
Gordon asked for backup,
and I could use the overtime.
Suddenly Christmas dinner
is looking a lot
like Chinese takeout.
No, no,
you don't have to do that.
Have dinner with us
at La Mariana.
You want to do the whole
"meet the family" thing
on Christmas Eve?
Why not?
Is it weird?
Uh, no.
I mean...
it's a big step,
but we've been dating
for a little while.
Come on,
it'll be casual and fun.
There'll be tons of food.
Plus,
I can get to meet your mom.
And I promise I will change
out of the Santa suit.
It actually sounds kind of nice.
Can I let you know?
Yeah, sure.
Just, uh, think about it.
I will.
I got to deal with some things.
Talk later?
Mm-hmm.
That was hard to watch.
It was... kind of a brush-off.
It wasn't a brush-off.
She said she's considering it.
Nope. That was definitely
a brush-off.
Barry, keep your mouth shut.
Yeah, he's right.
Mind your business, Barry.
It was you two that wanted
to hang out with me, remember?
Hey, can we get I.T. in here?
Something's up with the network.
Hey. I got a guy
in interrogation
about to turn state's witness,
and I can't access our system.
Can anyone pull
case files?
No, I'm locked out.
Me, too.
Whoa.
What the hell's going on?
It's a ransomware attack.
$5 million in Bitcoin?
In four hours, or they're
gonna delete all your files.
Including
all electronic evidence.
Which means we can kiss every
active investigation goodbye.
What'd the lieutenant say?
Sit tight,
wait for tech support.
That's the plan?
That's the protocol.
No way we get access
to $5 million in crypto
that fast.
And even if we could,
doesn't mean we should.
Yeah, if you do, you could
incentivize further attacks.
But if you don't...
Your whole caseload's
in jeopardy.
Hundreds of man-hours wasted,
and maybe dozens of people
back on the streets.
Deadline's in four hours,
and this hack could be coming
from anywhere.
Higgins, this is
right in your wheelhouse.
Is there anything you can do?
Well, there might be something.
Okay.
Ransomware is
like B and E, right?
The hackers
just waltz in your front door
and then they change the locks.
But it's possible
that they forgot
to secure the back door.
Sorry, what back door, exactly?
Well, the one that
I may or may not have built
to give me access
to your system.
Gordie, she did it for you,
all right?
Aren't you tired of us
asking you for favors?
Look, whatever you can do,
do it.
And obviously, without
our system up and running,
I can't process your skip.
Well, if you
can't process him,
what-what are we supposed
to do with him?
Are you serious?
You won't even notice
he's here.
Oh. Tell that
to the appetizers.
This needs more salt.
I'm cooking dinner for eight.
I'm not adding "babysitting
a criminal" to my to-do list.
Come on, he's small-time, right?
Totally harmless.
Right, Barry? Tell her.
There's no need
to be dismissive.
Small businesses are
the backbone of this economy.
But, yes, I do have
a famously gentle temperament.
Forgive me, but
I find it hard
to trust a guy who skips court
to commit more crimes.
What I was doing this morning
wasn't illegal.
I was buying my son a PS5
for Christmas.
Yeah, in the back of a shady
pawnshop with $800 cash.
So I'm a bad negotiator.
Look, I'm going
back to jail,
whether that's today, tomorrow.
Point is, I'm not gonna see
my kid for a while.
It's all he wanted
for Christmas,
and every single store in Oahu
was sold out.
So, yes, I may have
gone to extremes,
but what I did wasn't criminal.
Not today, at least.
So he can stay?
This guy. Lia. Her mom.
Anyone else I'm expected
to cook for Christmas Eve
at a moment's notice?
I wouldn't worry
about the girlfriend.
She did not seem enthused
about coming.
Ah.
Ho, ho, ho!
Look who it is.
Big man himself.
Yeah, uh, Santa,
for Christmas, can you pay off
my friend Thomas's bar tab,
please?
Very lovely
to see you guys, too.
Anyway, thanks, Kumu.
I am out of here.
I got to get changed
and get to HPD.
I'll see you guys
later.
Who's he?
Oh. This is Barry.
You're gonna love him.
I'm Barry.
Huh.
Oh, is, uh, that
the delivery?
It's that tarp I ordered.
Mm, mm-hmm.
Hey, Cade.
Do you mind
giving us a hand?
It's out back.
Sure thing.
Hmm.
Surprise!
Merry Christmas, kid.
It's the one you've been
saving up for, right?
Yeah.
No.
Wow, I can't believe it.
Thanks, Benny.
Appreciate you, pal.
Mm-hmm.
I know we said no gifts,
but you've been
working your tail off.
I wouldn't want you to spend
all your money in one place.
Yeah, no, I...
I mean, it's...
it's really nice.
I just...
What?
You're already letting me stay
at Island Hoppers,
and now this?
Don't worry about that, man.
I mean, the truck was
a bargain to begin with,
and we all pitched in.
It's from everybody?
Yeah.
Wow, I don't even know
what to say.
Uh, thank you...
so much.
It's am...
it's amazing.
I should go thank
Ms. Tuileta, too.
Uh, is it me,
or did that not go so well?
Yeah, it's not you.
Yeah.
Okay...
what did I miss?
You didn't bring me
a change of clothes?
Was I supposed to bring you
a change of clothes?
Just kidding.
It's in the bag.
Any closer to figuring out
where the hack came from?
No. And frustratingly, I cannot
figure out how they got in.
Well, how'd you get in?
Well, the back door
that I set up took weeks.
Ransomware is like
a get-rich-quick scheme--
the hackers send fake emails
with malware links, hoping
that somebody just clicks on it.
Yeah, it's a phishing scam.
Well, exactly.
But there are no such
emails, nor any texts.
So how did they orchestrate
the breach?
What if they... uploaded it
directly to an HPD computer?
You know? Like an inside job.
Right. So I'm looking
for patient zero.
Okay.
The first device infected
was a department-issued laptop
registered to...
Detective Lia Kaleo.
Lia?
Maybe she left her computer out.
Maybe she was targeted
for some reason.
Yeah, I'm inclined to agree.
I mean, Lia seems the furthest
thing from a corrupt cop.
Yeah, well, we're gonna have
to tell her. Where is she?
I'm not sure.
Come to think of it,
I haven't actually seen her
since the hack.
Strange.
Hi, this is Lia Kaleo.
Please leave a message...
Yeah, she's not picking up.
Maybe she's avoiding me.
I mean, you said yourself,
our last conversation was
a bit awkward.
Yeah. I mean, it's not
a great best-case scenario,
but it's possible.
Okay, under normal circumstances
I wouldn't ask you to do this,
but maybe you should ping
her phone...
Yeah, it's all right,
I've just done it.
She's in Portlock.
Hold on. Isn't that
where Jonny Kim lives?
Yeah. Why would Lia
be at the home
of Hawaii's biggest crime boss?
I don't know.
I'm gonna go check on that.
Uh, stay here. Help Gordie.
Call me when you know something.
I will.
♪
That's Lia's car out front.
I guess she's welcome here.
Not sure I'm gonna be.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
To what do I owe the visit?
You know why I'm here.
All right,
message received.
Let's go, chief.
Boss.
We got company.
Thomas, what are you doing here?
About to ask you
the same thing.
This is...
Jonny Kim, head of The Company,
Hawaii's most powerful crime
syndicate. Yeah, we've met.
I wish I could say it was nice
to see you again, Mr. Magnum.
You want to tell me
how you know this guy?
He's...
my father.
Thought you said
you didn't
know your dad.I don't. Not really.
My parents had an affair,
but my mom raised me alone.
I didn't even know his name
until I was in high school.
Okay, but that
still doesn't explain
how he had access
to your computer.
Excuse me?
Higgins traced
the hack to you.
You disappeared,
then you come here.
You know what
that looks like, right?
What exactly
are you accusing me of?
I'm not accusing you
of anything.
I'm just asking you.
What's going on?
Bad time?
'Cause if we're done,
I've got guests coming.
We're not.
I still have questions.
You've made your allegations.
I've denied any involvement
in this ransomware business.
I think we're through.
It was Pin, wasn't it?
Not sure what
you're talking about.
Neither am I. Who-Who's Pin?
He's my half brother.
Came to see me
two nights ago, drunk.
Said he needed
a place to sleep it off.
He crashed on the sofa.
Would have had access
to my laptop.
Next morning,
he's gone.
And within 24 hours,
someone hacks HPD,
demanding $5 million or else?
You think Pin launched the virus?
I know he did.
Well, this all sounds
very unfortunate.
But perhaps you should
be talking to Pin, not me.
Yeah, I would,
except I don't know where he is.
And we both know he
wouldn't do this himself.
You put him up to this.
So where is he?
Couldn't say.
We had a falling out.
What happened?
What always happens:
he screwed up.
I fired him.When was this?
Enough. You honestly think
I'd try something so reckless?
I don't need
the money.
Show them out.
Let's go.
I can't believe
Pin would do this.
How well do you know him?
I mean, we're not close,
but when I learned
who my dad was,
he was the only one
who reached out,
the only one
who wanted to know me.
So he was a good kid.
He still is good.
Or he wants to be.
But Jonny's
a manipulative guy,
and Pin's always wanted
his respect.
If Pin screwed up
and got cut off,
maybe he-he feels like
he's got to prove himself.
And he's willing to ruin
his life to do it.
We'll find him.
How? Look, I went by his place
right after the hack.
It turns out he moved.
And he's not answering
his cell.
Normally, I would use
HPD resources to track him down,
except now, thanks to Pin,
we have none.
I'm not sure about that.
We still have resources.
♪
Is this him?
Yeah,
but that's
his old address.
Can you try hacking
into the postal service?
If Pin moved
in the last six months,
he might be forwarding
mail there.
Yeah, it's worth a try.
Okay, so I just met Dave,
the I.T. guy,
and I got to say...
he doesn't inspire confidence.
Now, if things
weren't bad enough,
word is, the brass
has decided to pay the ransom
if we can't find who's
responsible by the deadline.
So please tell me
you have good news.
What?
What were you
thinking?
Oh, no, he looks angry.
That's just his face,
isn't it?
You had no business
keeping a secret like that.
You put the whole department
in jeopardy.
I know, and I'm sorry.
I should have disclosed
the relationship earlier,
but I didn't think
anyone would trust me.
And now they will?
Look, I-I'm going
to the higher-ups right now.
I'll tell them what I told you,
explain my part in all this.
No. Don't.
Gordon, I-I can't just...
Listen to me.
If Pin is behind this,
and we set all of HPD after him,
he'll get spooked,
and then we'll never find him.
But if we can locate him
before he knows we're looking,
then you might be the only one
who can get through to him.
Something's happening.
You guys
are gonna want to see this.
I don't get it.
Now he wants cash?
Yeah, you get the
decryption key
once he's safely away
with the money.
How is the department
supposed to get that much
before the deadline?
The evidence locker.
There was a big bust
a few weeks back.
$5.2 million was seized.
Right, well, our hacker
probably learned about that
when he gained access
to your system.
Decided to change his plan.
Not sure how he expects
to pull it off, though.
He's got to know
there's gonna be an army
of plainclothes cops
at the drop.
Yeah, but that
still might not be enough.
Look at the location:
Ala Moana Mall on Christmas Eve.
It's gonna be full of civilians.
It'll be impossible
to secure, and...
a dozen ways
things can go wrong.
Well, then you and Magnum better
find Pin before this goes down.
Tell me you have an address.
Yeah.
Okay, kalua pork,
rice, poke, poi.
What am I forgetting?
A fire extinguisher?
Oh! Oh, sweet potatoes!
Oh...
Aah!
You know, if I'm gonna be here,
at least let me help, yeah?
I'm a bit of a gourmand.
Okay. Let's see what you got.
Start peeling those.
On it.
So how'd you screw things up?
What? What do you mean?
Oh, come on.
If you missed a court date
to buy a Christmas present,
you are apologizing
for something.
Yeah, it's true,
I wasn't always the best dad.
Jail makes you miss
your fair share of soccer games.
But believe it or not,
Barry Jr. still thinks
that I'm Superman.
How'd you swing that?
I didn't.
My ex-wife did.
Things between Cindy
and I fell apart, but...
she made sure he and I
always stayed close.
Door was always open.
And for every Christmas
that I wasn't there,
she'd sign my name
on the biggest, best gift
under the tree.
Let me take all the credit.
Sounds like a saint.
Yeah.
Anyway, this year
I figured I'd return the favor:
find the impossible gift,
put her name on it,
let her be the hero for once.
Pig'll be ready in time, Kumu.
Great.
Where's Cade?
He, uh, walked down the street
for a secret Santa gift.
He walked?
Told you-- he hates the truck.
Well, maybe he wanted
to buy it himself,
or, you know,
maybe we overstepped...
It was a thoughtful gift,
and our hearts were
in the right place.
Try not to worry.
He'll see that.
Maybe he's just upset
you guys didn't spring
for something nicer, you know?
What?
I'm just saying
what everyone's thinking.
Can we lock his ass
in the storage room?
He's actually being
very helpful.
What's that, sweet potatoes?
Ah! No.
♪
It's no use--
his car's not here.
Maybe there's
something inside
that could tell us
where he's at.
Hang on. I can't just break
into a private residence.
Well, you're not breaking
into a residence.
I am.
See if you can find a computer
or a tablet.
What is it?
This is...
us at his 14th birthday
at his grandma's cabin.
I suppose the
one and only
family gathering
I was ever invited to.
That's got to be tough.
Yeah.
Pin's always been
a good kid.
Smart, too.
He could have done
anything with his life,
but, for whatever reason,
he was never able to escape
the gravitational pull
of our father.
Hey.
Come on,
you're okay.
Get me out of here.
What happened?
I had a house call.
Next thing I know,
guy throws me in here.
You said house call?
I work for Kokua Tech Support.
He took my uniform.
Who? Pin?
No. "Dave the I.T. guy."
♪
Let me guess. You're Dave?
Kokua Tech Support
is contracted with HPD.
It's protocol
for them to respond
in the event
of a ransomware hack.
And with access to the system,
Pin would've known that.
The ransomware was
a smoke screen.
And the dead drop's
a distraction.
Yeah, this was never
about the money.
This was about infiltrating HPD.
But why? What are they after?
Hey, can we get I.T. in here?
Something's up with the network.
Hey. I got a guy
in interrogation
about to turn state's witness,
and I can't access our system.
Palea's witness.
Power just went down.
What's going on?
Did the power go down
in there, too?
I'll call you back.
Can't catch a break today,
can we?
Listen, I got to check
the satellite nodes
in this section.
It's a restricted area.
We're holding a witness.
I'm gonna have to go with.
Lead on.
What happened?
Everybody okay?
One officer
caught the wrong end
of a stun gun.
He's gonna survive.
But Detective Palea's witness
is gone.
Mike Lazio. Who's he?
He's a dodgy accountant
with a handful
of criminal clients
and a drug problem, apparently.
He was picked up on a
narcotics charge last week.
This guy said that
he can hand over The Company
in exchange for a deal, but...
They got him first.
Mm-hmm.
Higgins filled us in.
Any leads?
Not much. Security cams dropped
when the power went out.
But the I.T. man's gone.
That's a commercial vehicle--
it's got to have a tracker.
Yeah, we're reaching out
to Kokua Tech Support right now.
What I don't understand is
what's Pin's involvement
in all of this.
I thought he and your
father broke ties.
Yeah, but I'm thinking
Lazio is Pin's fault.
Why do you say that?
Lazio's client list, page two:
Queenswell Services.
It's a subsidiary
of The Company.
One that I'm pretty sure
Pin used to run.
The "screw-up" that your dad
referenced earlier today,
he must have been talking
about Lazio.
Pin brought a rat into the fold.
And now it's his mess
to clean up.
But is he acting on his own,
or under orders from Jonny?
It doesn't matter-- if
The Company wanted Lazio dead,
there'd be a body
in that interrogation room.
Yeah. More likely they
want to interrogate him,
find out what he's told HPD,
then kill him.
Any luck on the van?
Tracker's been disabled.
But we got a BOLO out.
Meantime, Lieutenant wants
all available units
searching Company properties.
Hey, Lia, why don't
you hang back?
Hit the phones.
Talk to C.I.s,
see if you can generate a lead.
You got it.
The chances of finding Lazio
at a Company property
are slim to none.
I mean,
we have to find that van.
You think you can locate it
with a satellite?
I'm gonna try.
She can do that? How?
It's probably better
if you don't know.
Sit down!
Mike Lazio, you're
a hard man to get ahold of.
Pin,
please.
This is all a misunderstanding.
Yeah. Well,
set the record straight, then.
I heard you've been spilling
to HPD.
Nothing that'll stick.
And I never mentioned
you or your father.
I swear.
Yeah, well...
I got to be sure.
No!
Please! No!
Okay, I've got
a Kokua Tech Support van
heading east towards
Waimanalo 17 minutes ago.
That's the best I can do.
After that, I lose coverage.
What is it?
The cabin
I was telling you about,
it's about a quarter mile
from that spot.
Remote. Secluded.
And off HPD's radar.
It's owned by the family,
not The Company.
Great place to take a hostage.
Yeah.
Oh. There you are.
Thought maybe all that talk
of Higgy's pudding
scared you off.
Nah.
I'm actually kind of
curious to try it.
So...
it was the truck, then?
What? No.
No, I-I love the truck.
You sure?
'Cause we can take it back
if you're embarrassed, whatever.
I love the truck. Honest.
Why don't you tell me what it is
that's really
bothering you, then?
It's not really one thing.
It's just like...
kind of everything.
All of this,
everybody here together...
Oh, I get it. I get it.
We can be a lot.
But, look, nobody meant
to make you feel uncomfortable.
We just want you to feel
like family.
I know.
I guess...
maybe family feels different
for me.
I mean, my mom and I,
we had Christmas traditions,
too, you know.
But they didn't keep her here.
I guess, um...
family can make you feel like
you've got something to lose.
Listen, I get it.
If you're let down
by your family,
it can be hard to trust
a new one.
But let me tell you something,
this crew...
we don't walk away.
TC,
he's not going anywhere-- unless
you want him to, of course.
The same goes
for the rest of us, kid.
Got it?
Yeah.
Three of them to three of us,
plus Lazio to consider.
Yeah, not many points of entry.
Maybe we should take a page
out of Pin's playbook.
Hmm?
Create a distraction.
You can't be serious.
I don't see you coming up
with any ideas.
Please.
Please.
I told you everything
I told the cops.
I swear.
You were downtown for hours.
Stop wasting our time.
No?
Then we'll go again.
Shut it down.
Someone's here.
Keep your mouth shut,
or else.
What the hell?
Get rid of him.
♪ Deck the halls
with boughs of holly... ♪
Stop.
Not interested.
Uh, you know what,
most people don't like
the singing portion anyways,
so I'm just gonna cut
to the chase.
I work with this
organization
called Santa's Little Helpers,
and, you know,
we help disadvantaged kids,
so I just need a second
of your time if you got it.
Is that a no?
Okay, all right, how about
the lady of the house? She here?
Come on, man, help me out.
Too many kids
in this community...
Okay, I'll deal with
him. You find Pin.
Anything you got.
You got five, ten buck...
Get lost.
Okay.
What's going on out there?
Pin.
Lia, what are you doing here?
Put down the gun!
You know I can't do that.
And I know
you would never shoot me.
Pin, please.
It's my fault.
I got to take responsibility.
Not like this.
Then how? I don't have a choice.
You always have a choice.
Listen to her.
Call this off before you make
a mistake that we can't fix.
Oh, God, what did I do?
What's gonna happen now?
Turn around.
Pin Kim,
you're under arrest.
You have the right
to remain silent.
Anything you say can
and will be used against you
in a court of law.
How'd it go with the lieutenant?
I got an earful.
And there's gonna be
a disciplinary hearing.
What's the word on Lazio?
Shaken but okay.
Is he still looking for a deal?
Yeah.
Only now he seems
to be backpedaling
on what he's willing to share
on The Company.
After today, he's pretty scared.
So as usual, Jonny's gonna walk.
And Pin?
Not so lucky.
Techs recovered a laptop
at the cabin.
They found the decryption key,
so there was
no lasting damage
to the system, but...
between the evidence
on the hard drive
and the kidnapping charge...
He's going away for a long time.
Unless he wants
to give us Jonny.
Hey.
Hey.
Oh, I'll have one of those.
I texted Kumu--
I told them
not to wait for us for dinner.
You don't have to stay.
Don't worry about it.
Well, I don't mind being
a little bit late.
And I'm pretty certain
Barry won't mind
another hour or two of freedom.
It has been a weird day.
Yeah.
Today is... a lot to process.
Yeah. Yeah, it is.
What's wrong?
You know,
Lia kept me in the dark,
and had I not found out
the truth, I'd...
probably still be there.
Well...
knowing your history with...
certain women,
I can understand
why that would...
make you uncomfortable.
But as a woman
who has kept
her fair share of secrets,
I would, you know, just urge you
to give her
the benefit of the doubt.
I mean...
everyone wants to put
their best foot forward, right?
Reality's just too complicated.
Yeah. Yeah, I know.
But you think you know somebody,
and then you find out...
no, that's not the case.
You shouldn't be here.
You're about to spend
the next 20 years in prison.
Don't worry about me.
I asked for a lawyer.
And he's on his way.
Which means
you don't have much time left.
Come on, Pin.
You're not who they want,
and you know it.
Cut a deal.
Those other men in that cabin
all work for The Company.
Are you saying they were there
on your orders?
Don't take the fall for him.
We're done here.
Just go.
I'm so sorry, Lia.
You did everything
you could.
And look where it got us.
Listen...
would you be disappointed
if I pass on tonight?
Not feeling too festive
right now.
No, I, uh, understand.
You should be with your mother.
Thanks.
Call you tomorrow?
Yeah, sure.
And, uh,
thanks again
for your help today.
You're more than welcome.
Okay, you can go ahead
and say it.
That was a brush-off, right?
She doesn't know
what she's missing, Magnum.
Come on. You look like
you could use a spiked eggnog.
I think you're right.

Yeah, at store number three.
But it's the least we could do
with you making dinner
for the whole crew.
Hey, I was telling TC
that kalua pork's my favorite.
Oh, well,
then you're in for a treat.
Assuming I can actually, uh,
start cooking anytime soon.
Wait.
You ain't dig the firepit yet?
I've been trimming

You know...
I'm just gonna say it.
Let's order pizza.
Or save some of the digging
for Thomas.
True that.
Hey, man.
Can I ask how you're doing?
You can ask.
I'm not sure I can answer.
Look, we lost
a lot of people before.
What happened
to Robbie,
now, that's just... different.
Yeah. I miss him. Every day.
And I'm sad that he's gone,
but, uh...
I'm just grateful to be
surrounded by family right now.
You know we're here for you,
right?
Yeah, and I'm happy you
brought this kid along, too.
You come to help?
Uh... no.
Ms. Tuileta just wanted me
to bring you some lemonade.
Take that.
Oh, yeah.
Thank you.
And, uh, and to tell you that
if the imu isn't ready soon,
there'll be
no pig tonight.
Roger that.
Loud and clear.
So, you guys do this every year?
The decorations? The pig roast?
The secret Santa?
Well, there is one tradition
we should probably
warn you about.
Oh, nah, he's just a kid.
Yeah, but it's
a rite of passage.
I don't know if he needs
to suffer through that.
What is it?
I call it a Higgy pudding.
This year, I decided
to make a few extra
and hand them out to people.
Right. And it's...
black licorice and...Basil.
It's an unusual flavor profile,
but, you know,
no risk, no reward.
And it always goes down
really well, doesn't it, Magnum?
Yeah, they are
always... memorable.
Gordie!
Whatever this is,
I don't have time for it.
Gordon, what about
your holiday spirit?
This is my holiday spirit.
Take it in.
The most wonderful time
of the year.
The crime rate spikes,
and half the force
is off duty.
Wow, you really do have
your hands full.
Yet, somehow, I sense you're
about to ask me for a favor.
Good instincts.
This is our
skip, Barry.
I'd shake your hand, but...
Oahu Correctional is full,
so we were hoping maybe you
could process and hold him?
Give me a minute,
I'll see what I can do.
Thanks, Gordie.
All right, come on, Barry.
This way.
What are you still
doing here?
Thought you were gonna
cook dinner for your mom.
Gordon asked for backup,
and I could use the overtime.
Suddenly Christmas dinner
is looking a lot
like Chinese takeout.
No, no,
you don't have to do that.
Have dinner with us
at La Mariana.
You want to do the whole
"meet the family" thing
on Christmas Eve?
Why not?
Is it weird?
Uh, no.
I mean...
it's a big step,
but we've been dating
for a little while.
Come on,
it'll be casual and fun.
There'll be tons of food.
Plus,
I can get to meet your mom.
And I promise I will change
out of the Santa suit.
It actually sounds kind of nice.
Can I let you know?
Yeah, sure.
Just, uh, think about it.
I will.
I got to deal with some things.
Talk later?
Mm-hmm.
That was hard to watch.
It was... kind of a brush-off.
It wasn't a brush-off.
She said she's considering it.
Nope. That was definitely
a brush-off.
Barry, keep your mouth shut.
Yeah, he's right.
Mind your business, Barry.
It was you two that wanted
to hang out with me, remember?
Hey, can we get I.T. in here?
Something's up with the network.
Hey. I got a guy
in interrogation
about to turn state's witness,
and I can't access our system.
Can anyone pull
case files?
No, I'm locked out.
Me, too.
Whoa.
What the hell's going on?
It's a ransomware attack.
$5 million in Bitcoin?
In four hours, or they're
gonna delete all your files.
Including
all electronic evidence.
Which means we can kiss every
active investigation goodbye.
What'd the lieutenant say?
Sit tight,
wait for tech support.
That's the plan?
That's the protocol.
No way we get access
to $5 million in crypto
that fast.
And even if we could,
doesn't mean we should.
Yeah, if you do, you could
incentivize further attacks.
But if you don't...
Your whole caseload's
in jeopardy.
Hundreds of man-hours wasted,
and maybe dozens of people
back on the streets.
Deadline's in four hours,
and this hack could be coming
from anywhere.
Higgins, this is
right in your wheelhouse.
Is there anything you can do?
Well, there might be something.
Okay.
Ransomware is
like B and E, right?
The hackers
just waltz in your front door
and then they change the locks.
But it's possible
that they forgot
to secure the back door.
Sorry, what back door, exactly?
Well, the one that
I may or may not have built
to give me access
to your system.
Gordie, she did it for you,
all right?
Aren't you tired of us
asking you for favors?
Look, whatever you can do,
do it.
And obviously, without
our system up and running,
I can't process your skip.
Well, if you
can't process him,
what-what are we supposed
to do with him?
Are you serious?
You won't even notice
he's here.
Oh. Tell that
to the appetizers.
This needs more salt.
I'm cooking dinner for eight.
I'm not adding "babysitting
a criminal" to my to-do list.
Come on, he's small-time, right?
Totally harmless.
Right, Barry? Tell her.
There's no need
to be dismissive.
Small businesses are
the backbone of this economy.
But, yes, I do have
a famously gentle temperament.
Forgive me, but
I find it hard
to trust a guy who skips court
to commit more crimes.
What I was doing this morning
wasn't illegal.
I was buying my son a PS5
for Christmas.
Yeah, in the back of a shady
pawnshop with $800 cash.
So I'm a bad negotiator.
Look, I'm going
back to jail,
whether that's today, tomorrow.
Point is, I'm not gonna see
my kid for a while.
It's all he wanted
for Christmas,
and every single store in Oahu
was sold out.
So, yes, I may have
gone to extremes,
but what I did wasn't criminal.
Not today, at least.
So he can stay?
This guy. Lia. Her mom.
Anyone else I'm expected
to cook for Christmas Eve
at a moment's notice?
I wouldn't worry
about the girlfriend.
She did not seem enthused
about coming.
Ah.
Ho, ho, ho!
Look who it is.
Big man himself.
Yeah, uh, Santa,
for Christmas, can you pay off
my friend Thomas's bar tab,
please?
Very lovely
to see you guys, too.
Anyway, thanks, Kumu.
I am out of here.
I got to get changed
and get to HPD.
I'll see you guys
later.
Who's he?
Oh. This is Barry.
You're gonna love him.
I'm Barry.
Huh.
Oh, is, uh, that
the delivery?
It's that tarp I ordered.
Mm, mm-hmm.
Hey, Cade.
Do you mind
giving us a hand?
It's out back.
Sure thing.
Hmm.
Surprise!
Merry Christmas, kid.
It's the one you've been
saving up for, right?
Yeah.
No.
Wow, I can't believe it.
Thanks, Benny.
Appreciate you, pal.
Mm-hmm.
I know we said no gifts,
but you've been
working your tail off.
I wouldn't want you to spend
all your money in one place.
Yeah, no, I...
I mean, it's...
it's really nice.
I just...
What?
You're already letting me stay
at Island Hoppers,
and now this?
Don't worry about that, man.
I mean, the truck was
a bargain to begin with,
and we all pitched in.
It's from everybody?
Yeah.
Wow, I don't even know
what to say.
Uh, thank you...
so much.
It's am...
it's amazing.
I should go thank
Ms. Tuileta, too.
Uh, is it me,
or did that not go so well?
Yeah, it's not you.
Yeah.
Okay...
what did I miss?
You didn't bring me
a change of clothes?
Was I supposed to bring you
a change of clothes?
Just kidding.
It's in the bag.
Any closer to figuring out
where the hack came from?
No. And frustratingly, I cannot
figure out how they got in.
Well, how'd you get in?
Well, the back door
that I set up took weeks.
Ransomware is like
a get-rich-quick scheme--
the hackers send fake emails
with malware links, hoping
that somebody just clicks on it.
Yeah, it's a phishing scam.
Well, exactly.
But there are no such
emails, nor any texts.
So how did they orchestrate
the breach?
What if they... uploaded it
directly to an HPD computer?
You know? Like an inside job.
Right. So I'm looking
for patient zero.
Okay.
The first device infected
was a department-issued laptop
registered to...
Detective Lia Kaleo.
Lia?
Maybe she left her computer out.
Maybe she was targeted
for some reason.
Yeah, I'm inclined to agree.
I mean, Lia seems the furthest
thing from a corrupt cop.
Yeah, well, we're gonna have
to tell her. Where is she?
I'm not sure.
Come to think of it,
I haven't actually seen her
since the hack.
Strange.
Hi, this is Lia Kaleo.
Please leave a message...
Yeah, she's not picking up.
Maybe she's avoiding me.
I mean, you said yourself,
our last conversation was
a bit awkward.
Yeah. I mean, it's not
a great best-case scenario,
but it's possible.
Okay, under normal circumstances
I wouldn't ask you to do this,
but maybe you should ping
her phone...
Yeah, it's all right,
I've just done it.
She's in Portlock.
Hold on. Isn't that
where Jonny Kim lives?
Yeah. Why would Lia
be at the home
of Hawaii's biggest crime boss?
I don't know.
I'm gonna go check on that.
Uh, stay here. Help Gordie.
Call me when you know something.
I will.
♪
That's Lia's car out front.
I guess she's welcome here.
Not sure I'm gonna be.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
To what do I owe the visit?
You know why I'm here.
All right,
message received.
Let's go, chief.
Boss.
We got company.
Thomas, what are you doing here?
About to ask you
the same thing.
This is...
Jonny Kim, head of The Company,
Hawaii's most powerful crime
syndicate. Yeah, we've met.
I wish I could say it was nice
to see you again, Mr. Magnum.
You want to tell me
how you know this guy?
He's...
my father.
Thought you said
you didn't
know your dad.I don't. Not really.
My parents had an affair,
but my mom raised me alone.
I didn't even know his name
until I was in high school.
Okay, but that
still doesn't explain
how he had access
to your computer.
Excuse me?
Higgins traced
the hack to you.
You disappeared,
then you come here.
You know what
that looks like, right?
What exactly
are you accusing me of?
I'm not accusing you
of anything.
I'm just asking you.
What's going on?
Bad time?
'Cause if we're done,
I've got guests coming.
We're not.
I still have questions.
You've made your allegations.
I've denied any involvement
in this ransomware business.
I think we're through.
It was Pin, wasn't it?
Not sure what
you're talking about.
Neither am I. Who-Who's Pin?
He's my half brother.
Came to see me
two nights ago, drunk.
Said he needed
a place to sleep it off.
He crashed on the sofa.
Would have had access
to my laptop.
Next morning,
he's gone.
And within 24 hours,
someone hacks HPD,
demanding $5 million or else?
You think Pin launched the virus?
I know he did.
Well, this all sounds
very unfortunate.
But perhaps you should
be talking to Pin, not me.
Yeah, I would,
except I don't know where he is.
And we both know he
wouldn't do this himself.
You put him up to this.
So where is he?
Couldn't say.
We had a falling out.
What happened?
What always happens:
he screwed up.
I fired him.When was this?
Enough. You honestly think
I'd try something so reckless?
I don't need
the money.
Show them out.
Let's go.
I can't believe
Pin would do this.
How well do you know him?
I mean, we're not close,
but when I learned
who my dad was,
he was the only one
who reached out,
the only one
who wanted to know me.
So he was a good kid.
He still is good.
Or he wants to be.
But Jonny's
a manipulative guy,
and Pin's always wanted
his respect.
If Pin screwed up
and got cut off,
maybe he-he feels like
he's got to prove himself.
And he's willing to ruin
his life to do it.
We'll find him.
How? Look, I went by his place
right after the hack.
It turns out he moved.
And he's not answering
his cell.
Normally, I would use
HPD resources to track him down,
except now, thanks to Pin,
we have none.
I'm not sure about that.
We still have resources.
♪
Is this him?
Yeah,
but that's
his old address.
Can you try hacking
into the postal service?
If Pin moved
in the last six months,
he might be forwarding
mail there.
Yeah, it's worth a try.
Okay, so I just met Dave,
the I.T. guy,
and I got to say...
he doesn't inspire confidence.
Now, if things
weren't bad enough,
word is, the brass
has decided to pay the ransom
if we can't find who's
responsible by the deadline.
So please tell me
you have good news.
What?
What were you
thinking?
Oh, no, he looks angry.
That's just his face,
isn't it?
You had no business
keeping a secret like that.
You put the whole department
in jeopardy.
I know, and I'm sorry.
I should have disclosed
the relationship earlier,
but I didn't think
anyone would trust me.
And now they will?
Look, I-I'm going
to the higher-ups right now.
I'll tell them what I told you,
explain my part in all this.
No. Don't.
Gordon, I-I can't just...
Listen to me.
If Pin is behind this,
and we set all of HPD after him,
he'll get spooked,
and then we'll never find him.
But if we can locate him
before he knows we're looking,
then you might be the only one
who can get through to him.
Something's happening.
You guys
are gonna want to see this.
I don't get it.
Now he wants cash?
Yeah, you get the
decryption key
once he's safely away
with the money.
How is the department
supposed to get that much
before the deadline?
The evidence locker.
There was a big bust
a few weeks back.
$5.2 million was seized.
Right, well, our hacker
probably learned about that
when he gained access
to your system.
Decided to change his plan.
Not sure how he expects
to pull it off, though.
He's got to know
there's gonna be an army
of plainclothes cops
at the drop.
Yeah, but that
still might not be enough.
Look at the location:
Ala Moana Mall on Christmas Eve.
It's gonna be full of civilians.
It'll be impossible
to secure, and...
a dozen ways
things can go wrong.
Well, then you and Magnum better
find Pin before this goes down.
Tell me you have an address.
Yeah.
Okay, kalua pork,
rice, poke, poi.
What am I forgetting?
A fire extinguisher?
Oh! Oh, sweet potatoes!
Oh...
Aah!
You know, if I'm gonna be here,
at least let me help, yeah?
I'm a bit of a gourmand.
Okay. Let's see what you got.
Start peeling those.
On it.
So how'd you screw things up?
What? What do you mean?
Oh, come on.
If you missed a court date
to buy a Christmas present,
you are apologizing
for something.
Yeah, it's true,
I wasn't always the best dad.
Jail makes you miss
your fair share of soccer games.
But believe it or not,
Barry Jr. still thinks
that I'm Superman.
How'd you swing that?
I didn't.
My ex-wife did.
Things between Cindy
and I fell apart, but...
she made sure he and I
always stayed close.
Door was always open.
And for every Christmas
that I wasn't there,
she'd sign my name
on the biggest, best gift
under the tree.
Let me take all the credit.
Sounds like a saint.
Yeah.
Anyway, this year
I figured I'd return the favor:
find the impossible gift,
put her name on it,
let her be the hero for once.
Pig'll be ready in time, Kumu.
Great.
Where's Cade?
He, uh, walked down the street
for a secret Santa gift.
He walked?
Told you-- he hates the truck.
Well, maybe he wanted
to buy it himself,
or, you know,
maybe we overstepped...
It was a thoughtful gift,
and our hearts were
in the right place.
Try not to worry.
He'll see that.
Maybe he's just upset
you guys didn't spring
for something nicer, you know?
What?
I'm just saying
what everyone's thinking.
Can we lock his ass
in the storage room?
He's actually being
very helpful.
What's that, sweet potatoes?
Ah! No.
♪
It's no use--
his car's not here.
Maybe there's
something inside
that could tell us
where he's at.
Hang on. I can't just break
into a private residence.
Well, you're not breaking
into a residence.
I am.
See if you can find a computer
or a tablet.
What is it?
This is...
us at his 14th birthday
at his grandma's cabin.
I suppose the
one and only
family gathering
I was ever invited to.
That's got to be tough.
Yeah.
Pin's always been
a good kid.
Smart, too.
He could have done
anything with his life,
but, for whatever reason,
he was never able to escape
the gravitational pull
of our father.
Hey.
Come on,
you're okay.
Get me out of here.
What happened?
I had a house call.
Next thing I know,
guy throws me in here.
You said house call?
I work for Kokua Tech Support.
He took my uniform.
Who? Pin?
No. "Dave the I.T. guy."
♪
Let me guess. You're Dave?
Kokua Tech Support
is contracted with HPD.
It's protocol
for them to respond
in the event
of a ransomware hack.
And with access to the system,
Pin would've known that.
The ransomware was
a smoke screen.
And the dead drop's
a distraction.
Yeah, this was never
about the money.
This was about infiltrating HPD.
But why? What are they after?
Hey, can we get I.T. in here?
Something's up with the network.
Hey. I got a guy
in interrogation
about to turn state's witness,
and I can't access our system.
Palea's witness.
Power just went down.
What's going on?
Did the power go down
in there, too?
I'll call you back.
Can't catch a break today,
can we?
Listen, I got to check
the satellite nodes
in this section.
It's a restricted area.
We're holding a witness.
I'm gonna have to go with.
Lead on.
What happened?
Everybody okay?
One officer
caught the wrong end
of a stun gun.
He's gonna survive.
But Detective Palea's witness
is gone.
Mike Lazio. Who's he?
He's a dodgy accountant
with a handful
of criminal clients
and a drug problem, apparently.
He was picked up on a
narcotics charge last week.
This guy said that
he can hand over The Company
in exchange for a deal, but...
They got him first.
Mm-hmm.
Higgins filled us in.
Any leads?
Not much. Security cams dropped
when the power went out.
But the I.T. man's gone.
That's a commercial vehicle--
it's got to have a tracker.
Yeah, we're reaching out
to Kokua Tech Support right now.
What I don't understand is
what's Pin's involvement
in all of this.
I thought he and your
father broke ties.
Yeah, but I'm thinking
Lazio is Pin's fault.
Why do you say that?
Lazio's client list, page two:
Queenswell Services.
It's a subsidiary
of The Company.
One that I'm pretty sure
Pin used to run.
The "screw-up" that your dad
referenced earlier today,
he must have been talking
about Lazio.
Pin brought a rat into the fold.
And now it's his mess
to clean up.
But is he acting on his own,
or under orders from Jonny?
It doesn't matter-- if
The Company wanted Lazio dead,
there'd be a body
in that interrogation room.
Yeah. More likely they
want to interrogate him,
find out what he's told HPD,
then kill him.
Any luck on the van?
Tracker's been disabled.
But we got a BOLO out.
Meantime, Lieutenant wants
all available units
searching Company properties.
Hey, Lia, why don't
you hang back?
Hit the phones.
Talk to C.I.s,
see if you can generate a lead.
You got it.
The chances of finding Lazio
at a Company property
are slim to none.
I mean,
we have to find that van.
You think you can locate it
with a satellite?
I'm gonna try.
She can do that? How?
It's probably better
if you don't know.
Sit down!
Mike Lazio, you're
a hard man to get ahold of.
Pin,
please.
This is all a misunderstanding.
Yeah. Well,
set the record straight, then.
I heard you've been spilling
to HPD.
Nothing that'll stick.
And I never mentioned
you or your father.
I swear.
Yeah, well...
I got to be sure.
No!
Please! No!
Okay, I've got
a Kokua Tech Support van
heading east towards
Waimanalo 17 minutes ago.
That's the best I can do.
After that, I lose coverage.
What is it?
The cabin
I was telling you about,
it's about a quarter mile
from that spot.
Remote. Secluded.
And off HPD's radar.
It's owned by the family,
not The Company.
Great place to take a hostage.
Yeah.
Oh. There you are.
Thought maybe all that talk
of Higgy's pudding
scared you off.
Nah.
I'm actually kind of
curious to try it.
So...
it was the truck, then?
What? No.
No, I-I love the truck.
You sure?
'Cause we can take it back
if you're embarrassed, whatever.
I love the truck. Honest.
Why don't you tell me what it is
that's really
bothering you, then?
It's not really one thing.
It's just like...
kind of everything.
All of this,
everybody here together...
Oh, I get it. I get it.
We can be a lot.
But, look, nobody meant
to make you feel uncomfortable.
We just want you to feel
like family.
I know.
I guess...
maybe family feels different
for me.
I mean, my mom and I,
we had Christmas traditions,
too, you know.
But they didn't keep her here.
I guess, um...
family can make you feel like
you've got something to lose.
Listen, I get it.
If you're let down
by your family,
it can be hard to trust
a new one.
But let me tell you something,
this crew...
we don't walk away.
TC,
he's not going anywhere-- unless
you want him to, of course.
The same goes
for the rest of us, kid.
Got it?
Yeah.
Three of them to three of us,
plus Lazio to consider.
Yeah, not many points of entry.
Maybe we should take a page
out of Pin's playbook.
Hmm?
Create a distraction.
You can't be serious.
I don't see you coming up
with any ideas.
Please.
Please.
I told you everything
I told the cops.
I swear.
You were downtown for hours.
Stop wasting our time.
No?
Then we'll go again.
Shut it down.
Someone's here.
Keep your mouth shut,
or else.
What the hell?
Get rid of him.
♪ Deck the halls
with boughs of holly... ♪
Stop.
Not interested.
Uh, you know what,
most people don't like
the singing portion anyways,
so I'm just gonna cut
to the chase.
I work with this
organization
called Santa's Little Helpers,
and, you know,
we help disadvantaged kids,
so I just need a second
of your time if you got it.
Is that a no?
Okay, all right, how about
the lady of the house? She here?
Come on, man, help me out.
Too many kids
in this community...
Okay, I'll deal with
him. You find Pin.
Anything you got.
You got five, ten buck...
Get lost.
Okay.
What's going on out there?
Pin.
Lia, what are you doing here?
Put down the gun!
You know I can't do that.
And I know
you would never shoot me.
Pin, please.
It's my fault.
I got to take responsibility.
Not like this.
Then how? I don't have a choice.
You always have a choice.
Listen to her.
Call this off before you make
a mistake that we can't fix.
Oh, God, what did I do?
What's gonna happen now?
Turn around.
Pin Kim,
you're under arrest.
You have the right
to remain silent.
Anything you say can
and will be used against you
in a court of law.
How'd it go with the lieutenant?
I got an earful.
And there's gonna be
a disciplinary hearing.
What's the word on Lazio?
Shaken but okay.
Is he still looking for a deal?
Yeah.
Only now he seems
to be backpedaling
on what he's willing to share
on The Company.
After today, he's pretty scared.
So as usual, Jonny's gonna walk.
And Pin?
Not so lucky.
Techs recovered a laptop
at the cabin.
They found the decryption key,
so there was
no lasting damage
to the system, but...
between the evidence
on the hard drive
and the kidnapping charge...
He's going away for a long time.
Unless he wants
to give us Jonny.
Hey.
Hey.
Oh, I'll have one of those.
I texted Kumu--
I told them
not to wait for us for dinner.
You don't have to stay.
Don't worry about it.
Well, I don't mind being
a little bit late.
And I'm pretty certain
Barry won't mind
another hour or two of freedom.
It has been a weird day.
Yeah.
Today is... a lot to process.
Yeah. Yeah, it is.
What's wrong?
You know,
Lia kept me in the dark,
and had I not found out
the truth, I'd...
probably still be there.
Well...
knowing your history with...
certain women,
I can understand
why that would...
make you uncomfortable.
But as a woman
who has kept
her fair share of secrets,
I would, you know, just urge you
to give her
the benefit of the doubt.
I mean...
everyone wants to put
their best foot forward, right?
Reality's just too complicated.
Yeah. Yeah, I know.
But you think you know somebody,
and then you find out...
no, that's not the case.
You shouldn't be here.
You're about to spend
the next 20 years in prison.
Don't worry about me.
I asked for a lawyer.
And he's on his way.
Which means
you don't have much time left.
Come on, Pin.
You're not who they want,
and you know it.
Cut a deal.
Those other men in that cabin
all work for The Company.
Are you saying they were there
on your orders?
Don't take the fall for him.
We're done here.
Just go.
I'm so sorry, Lia.
You did everything
you could.
And look where it got us.
Listen...
would you be disappointed
if I pass on tonight?
Not feeling too festive
right now.
No, I, uh, understand.
You should be with your mother.
Thanks.
Call you tomorrow?
Yeah, sure.
And, uh,
thanks again
for your help today.
You're more than welcome.
Okay, you can go ahead
and say it.
That was a brush-off, right?
She doesn't know
what she's missing, Magnum.

you could use a spiked eggnog.
