Numb3rs (2005–2010): Season 1, Episode 8 - Identity Crisis - full transcript

DO I EVEN NEED TO ASK?

(men groaning)

IT'S NOT WHAT IT
LOOKS LIKE. I PROMISE...

(Michael) YOUR
BROTHER HUSTLING US?

I'VE ONLY PLAYED ONCE BEFORE.

I ACTUALLY HAVE A 1 IN 8 CHANCE

OF HITTING A SET WHEN
I'M HOLDING A POCKET PAIR.

I'M ABOUT 50-50 TO DRAW A FLUSH

WITH 3 SUITED CARDS IN
MY HAND, 2 OFF THE DRAW.

I ALSO COUNT MY OUTS.
I... I MULTIPLY BY 2. I ADD 1.

THAT'S ROUGHLY MY
PERCENTAGE OF HITTING.



(men grunting)

SOON BE ASKING YOU TO TAKE MY
SEAT. YOUR SON IS KILLING US, OK?

NO, NOT ME. THE ONLY
OTHER TIME CHARLIE PLAYED,

I LEARNED MY LESSON ABOUT
GAMBLING WITH A MATHEMATICIAN.

WAIT, WEREN'T WE
PLAYING WITH BOTTLE CAPS?

(Alan) YEAH.

OR ELSE YOU'D HAVE WALKED
AWAY WITH THE PINK SLIP TO MY CAR.

YOU KNOW, THERE IS SOME
ELEMENT OF CHANCE HERE.

YOU KNOW, I... I... I MAY
JUST BE GETTING LUCKY.

THAT'S FUNNY,
SINCLAIR. KEEP THAT UP.

IT COMES BACK TO ME
WHEN BASEBALL STARTS.

BASEBALL? THE
F.B.I. HAVE A TEAM?

YEAH, WE GOT A WHOLE LEAGUE. THERE'S,
UH, L.A.P.D., SHERIFFS' DEPARTMENT...

D.A.'S GOT THE KILLER SQUAD.



NOW THAT KRAFT'S IN SAN DIEGO,

YOU GUYS DON'T
HAVE A POWER HITTER.

WELL, WHAT ABOUT DON?

IT'S NOT MY THING.

WHAT, YOU PLAY? DON WENT TO
COLLEGE ON A BASEBALL SCHOLARSHIP.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
YOU PLAYED PRO SECOND BASE.

SINGLE "A" ABOUT A
MILLION YEARS AGO.

THAT'S GREAT. THAT MEANS
YOU'RE THIS YEAR'S RINGER.

NO. I'M SORRY. NOT
INTERESTED, BUDDY.

COME ON, YOU
GOTTA DO IT. COME ON.

(cell phone ringing) EXCUSE ME.

(sighing)

EPPES. WE'LL BE RIGHT THERE.

(policeman) AND THEN
WHAT DID YOU DO, MISS?

(sirens wailing) I
TRIED THE DOOR,

BUT HE DIDN'T ANSWER.

MMM-HMM.

SO I WENT IN.

DID YOU SEE ANYBODY? HEY.

DID YOU HEAR ANYTHING?

VICTIM'S GIRLFRIEND. MMM-HMM.

CORONER PUT TIME OF DEATH
AROUND 8:00 THIS MORNING.

VICTIM'S NAME IS
TREVOR RILEY, 27.

(Terry) WANTED ON A FEDERAL
WARRANT FOR STOCK FRAUD.

WHAT'D HE DIE OF?

THE SAME WAY AS A VICTIM
FROM A PREVIOUS CASE.

ONE YOU CLOSED A YEAR AGO.

WHAT?

HE WAS DEFINITELY GARROTED.
HEAD'S NEARLY SEVERED.

SAME AS THE LISA BAYLE MURDER.

CHECK HIS BACK.

(Don) YEAH.

LOOKS LIKE A KNEE COULD'VE BEEN
PRESSED IN HERE FOR LEVERAGE.

ALSO LIKE THE
BAYLE CASE. AND THIS.

(David) LOOKS LIKE THE
WIRE HE USED TO KILL HIM.

HE WRAPPED AROUND
HIS WORK GLOVES HERE.

(technician) MAYBE WE CAN
GET SOME D.N.A. OUT OF THESE?

HE WORE LATEX
GLOVES UNDERNEATH 'EM.

I MEAN, CLIFF HOWARD
CONFESSED TO THE CRIME.

WE HAVE HIS FINGERPRINT
ON LISA BAYLE'S BODY,

AN EYEWITNESS PUT
HIM AT THE SCENE.

COULD BE A COPYCAT.

SOMEONE WHO READ
ABOUT THE BAYLE CASE. NO.

WE NEVER RELEASED THE DETAIL
ABOUT THE GLOVES TO THE PRESS.

DID I ACTUALLY PUT
THE WRONG GUY IN JAIL?

(Charlie) WE ALL USE
MATH EVERY DAY.

(echoing) EVERY DAY.

TO PREDICT WEATHER,

TO TELL TIME,

TO HANDLE MONEY.

MATH IS MORE THAN
FORMULAS AND EQUATIONS.

IT'S LOGIC.

(echoing) MATH IS MORE THAN
FORMULAS AND EQUATIONS.

IT'S RATIONALITY.

IT'S USING YOUR MIND

TO SOLVE THE BIGGEST
MYSTERIES WE KNOW.

(echoing) WE KNOW.

(people chattering)

(camera clicking)

SO 2 VICTIMS, SAME M.O.

ONE CASE IS A YEAR AND A HALF
OLD, THE OTHER IS BRAND-NEW.

SO RILEY HERE FANCIES
HIMSELF AN INVESTMENT ADVISOR,

YET, HE'S CONVICTED OF FRAUD,
ARRESTED TWICE FOR BLACKMAIL.

HE'S GOT SPREADSHEETS
ON HIS COMPUTER.

WE'LL NEED A FORENSIC
ACCOUNTANT TO UNTANGLE THEM.

WHAT KIND OF
BLACKMAIL WAS HE INTO?

CHECK IT OUT. HE... HE WOULD
SLEEP WITH MARRIED WOMEN,

THREATEN TO TELL THE HUSBAND
IF THEY DIDN'T PAY HIM OFF.

CLASSY.

YEAH. NICE GUY.

THE BAYLE CASE. IT
WAS A SOLID JOB, DON.

FINGERPRINT,
EYEWITNESS, CONFESSION.

SHE WAS FOUND IN HER CAR,

ALTHOUGH I'M PRETTY DARN SURE

SHE WAS KILLED SOMEPLACE ELSE.

HE WAS DEFINITELY
KILLED IN HIS APARTMENT.

I MEAN, OTHER THAN THAT, EVERY
DETAIL MATCHES UP PERFECTLY.

HELLO? ANYBODY HOME?

(Alan) YEAH, DONNY, I'M HERE.

HEY, DAD, WHERE'S CHARLIE?

(panting) OH, I WAS JUST
TALKING TO CHARLIE.

HE SAID YOUR F.B.I. TEAM
NEEDS ANOTHER HITTER.

WHY AREN'T YOU PLAYING
BASEBALL WITH THEM?

LOOK, 'CAUSE I DON'T HAVE
TIME FOR THAT. HEY, CHARLIE.

YOU SHOULD PLAY. I MEAN, THERE'S NO
REASON TO WASTE ALL THAT EXPERIENCE.

THEY NEED A POWER HITTER.
LOOK, YOU GOT A MINUTE?

THAT'S WHAT I WAS GETTING
AT. ALL RIGHT, THANKS.

ACTUALLY, I... I... I GOT A
SEMINAR IN ABOUT A HALF HOUR.

JUST GIVE ME A
MINUTE, ALL RIGHT?

THIS IS A COPY OF A FILE
WE PULLED OFF A COMPUTER

THAT WE THINK SHOWS
SOME KIND OF FRAUD.

THE PROBLEM IS OUR
ACCOUNTANTS ARE UP TO THEIR NECKS

IN THIS BIG RACKETEERING CASE,

THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE
TO GET TO IT TILL NEXT WEEK.

WELL, LOVE TO HELP, BUT
I'M PREPARING A SEMINAR

ON ZEROS OF RANDOM
ORTHOGONAL POLYNOMIALS.

THIS REALLY ISN'T AN
ADVANCED APPLICATION.

LOOK, PLEASE, JUST DO
ME A FAVOR, ALL RIGHT?

15 MONTHS AGO, I CLOSED A CASE.

THE MURDER OF A YOUNG MOTHER.

NOW, THE GUY'S IN JAIL,

BUT THE OWNER OF THE COMPUTER

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE, WAS
JUST KILLED IN THE EXACT SAME WAY.

YOU SUSPECT THE 2 ARE RELATED.

WELL, THAT'S WHAT I'M
TRYING TO DETERMINE.

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT,
I... I'LL CHECK IT OUT.

THANK YOU.

(door closing) (Alan) SO, UH,

WHAT, YOU THINK YOU MADE
A MISTAKE ON YOUR OLD CASE?

NO. I MEAN, WE HAD
SOLID EVIDENCE,

BUT THE SIMILARITY
BETWEEN THE CASES IS JUST...

I MEAN, IT'S TOO GLARING.

WELL, UH, WHO'S THE
GUY THAT'S IN JAIL?

CLIFF HOWARD. HE HAD A RECORD
FOR ROBBERY, CARJACKING.

I MEAN, HE LIVED BLOCKS FROM
WHERE WE FOUND THE VICTIM.

WELL, A JURY THOUGHT THEY
HAD THE RIGHT GUY, DIDN'T THEY?

NO. NEVER WENT TO TRIAL. PLEADED
GUILTY TO AVOID A LIFE SENTENCE.

(Alan sighing)

(agent #1) AS I WAS REMOVING
TREVOR RILEY'S BODY,

I NOTICED THE FACING WAS LOOSE,

AND WHEN I PULLED IT OFF...

MUST BE WHAT, SEVERAL THOUSAND?

(agent #2) SIR,

WE GOT SOME MORE OVER HERE.

(man) HERE'S THE LAST OF IT.

(Terry) ABOUT $525,000.

YEAH. NO WAY HE COULD EXPLAIN
ALL THIS TO A BANK. MMM-MMM.

NO MAIL IN THE BOX,
PHONE'S TURNED OFF,

AND ALL OF HIS
FURNITURE'S RENTED.

WHATEVER HIS SCAM WAS, HE
WAS GETTING READY TO MOVE ON.

♪ (music playing) (Don) YEP.

NEIGHBOR.

LET'S GO CHECK HIM OUT.

(volume reducing)

I WAS AT THE OPERA LAST NIGHT
WHEN THEY FOUND THE BODY.

WE THINK HE WAS KILLED
YESTERDAY MORNING

AT ABOUT 8:00 A.M.
WERE YOU HOME?

I WAS GETTING READY FOR SCHOOL.

I HEARD HIM HAVING AN ARGUMENT.

I HAD MY MUSIC ON LOUD,

BUT THEY WERE LOUDER.

"THEY"? YEAH.

THE ELECTRICIAN.

WOULD YOU RECOGNIZE THE
MAN IF YOU SAW HIM AGAIN?

YEAH, HE'S HISPANIC,

BALD,

HIS VAN SAYS "THE
ELECTRICIAN CONNECTION."

SO, YOU'RE A TEACHER?

YES. I TEACH MUSIC AT WESTMORE.

DID YOU EVER DO ANY BUSINESS

OR HAVE ANY FINANCIAL
DEALINGS WITH HIM?

NO. I UNDERSTAND HE WAS SOME
KIND OF INVESTMENT COUNSELOR?

UH, I DIDN'T HAVE
ANY NEED FOR THAT.

TEACHER'S SALARY,
YOU UNDERSTAND?

(David) WERE YOU EVER AT

TREVOR RILEY'S
APARTMENT, MR. SALAZAR?

YEAH, I WAS AT
TREVOR RILEY'S PLACE.

TO FIX THE LIGHTS.

YESTERDAY MORNING?

2 MONTHS AGO.

DID YOU DO ANY OTHER
WORK FOR MR. RILEY?

WHY? WHAT'S GOING ON?

ANY OTHER WORK, MR. SALAZAR?

I RAN SOME GROUNDED
OUTLETS FOR HIS COMPUTERS.

YOUR COMPANY DOESN'T
HAVE A RECORD OF THAT.

(sighing)

MY BOSS FINDS
OUT, I'M FIRED, OK?

I GOT 3 KIDS. I GOTTA
TAKE WORK OFF THE BOOKS.

I WENT THERE BEFORE
WORK, NEVER ON THE CLOCK.

WHEN DID YOU
INSTALL THE OUTLETS?

I MADE 3 VISITS. THE LAST
ONE WAS A WEEK AGO.

HOW IS THIS AN F.B.I...

DID YOU EVER HAVE ANY DISAGREEMENTS
WITH RILEY AT ALL, AT ANY TIME?

WHEN I WAS FINISHED,

HE TRIED TO UNDERPAY
ME. WE WORKED IT OUT.

AND YOU WEREN'T THERE
YESTERDAY MORNING?

I WAS AT THE BATTING CAGES.

I'M THERE EVERY
TUESDAY AND THURSDAY.

MEMBERS CAN COME
AND GO WHENEVER.

THEY DON'T HAVE TO SIGN IN?

NO, THEY GET A COMBINATION.

THEY CAN PUNCH IT IN ANYTIME
BETWEEN 6:00 A.M. AND 11:00 P.M.

MIDNIGHT ON WEEKENDS.

HOW ABOUT A SECURITY CAM? ANY
WAY I CAN GET A LOOK AT A TAPE?

IT GOT BUSTED.

FOUL BALL.

(Terry) SO SALAZAR HAS
A FIGHT WITH THE VICTIM,

AND HIS ALIBI DOESN'T HOLD UP.

I MEAN, YOU GOT TO FIGURE
AN ELECTRICIAN'S GONNA HAVE

THE FINE-GAUGE WIRE USED
IN BOTH KILLINGS, RIGHT?

YEAH.

MAYBE HE DID SOME WORK
AT LISA BAYLE'S HOUSE.

YOU'RE THINKING IF WE CAN PROVE
THAT SALAZAR KILLED TREVOR RILEY,

EXACTLY. THEN FIND A LINK
BETWEEN SALAZAR AND BAYLE...

I'M THINKING WE SHOULD BE
FOCUSING ON WHAT GOT RILEY KILLED.

(bat thudding)

RILEY WAS RUNNING A FRAUD.

A CLASSIC PYRAMID SCHEME.

ALL RIGHT, WELL, WHY DON'T
YOU TELL US WHAT YOU KNOW?

HE SENT E-MAILS TO
INVESTORS AT SMITH-WATERSON

THAT LOOKED LIKE
OFFICIAL COMMUNICATION.

IT'S CALLED "SPOOFING."

THOSE E-MAILS CLAIMED THAT HE
WAS CONNECTED TO SMITH-WATERSON,

ASKED INVESTORS TO
SEND HIM INFORMATION,

USER I.D.'S, SECURITY
CODES AND SUCH.

SO HE COULD GET
INTO THEIR ACCOUNTS.

NOW, WHY DIDN'T PEOPLE
COMPLAIN ABOUT MISSING MONEY?

MR. RILEY WAS A
VERY, VERY SMART MAN.

INSTEAD OF PULLING
OUT LUMP SUMS,

WHICH MIGHT DRAW
IMMEDIATE NOTICE,

HE HAD A SCHEME TO
DRAIN OUT OF LARGE SUMS

WITHOUT RAISING AN ALARM.

HE STARTED BY TAKING

$2 OUT OF EACH ACCOUNT.

THEN HE'D REPLACE THE
MONEY WITHIN A FEW DAYS

BY TAKING 2 MORE DOLLARS
OUT OF 2 MORE ACCOUNTS.

SO HE'D PUT $2 BACK,

AND KEEP THE OTHER
$2 FOR HIMSELF.

HE RECORDED THEM
AS ACCOUNTING ERRORS

WITH AMOUNTS SO SMALL,
NO ONE DOUBLE-CHECKED.

OK, SO HOW DOES $2
BECOME HALF A MILLION?

OK, UH, GOOD QUESTION.

AND...

I HAVE FOLDED THIS PAPER TWICE.

IT IS NOW 4 TIMES
AS THICK AS IT WAS.

IF I COULD POTENTIALLY
FOLD IT 50 TIMES,

HOW TALL DO YOU THINK THE
RESULTING STACK OF PAPER WOULD BE?

WELL, I MEAN, IT'S GOT TO
BE AT LEAST A COUPLE FEET.

NO, NO, I'D SAY
MORE LIKE A BUILDING.

TALL ENOUGH TO REACH THE SUN.

WOW.

IT'S A GEOMETRIC PROGRESSION. I MEAN,
OBVIOUSLY, YOU CANNOT FOLD THIS PAPER 50 TIMES.

A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT
NAMED BRITNEY GALLIVAN

PREDICTED A WAY
TO DO IT 12 TIMES

AND THEN SHE DID IT
WITH ACTUAL PAPER.

I MEAN, SHE SET A WORLD RECORD.

HOW TALL WAS IT?

OH, A FOOT AND A HALF.

THE SAME PRINCIPAL
APPLIES TO EMBEZZLEMENT.

HOWEVER, IT TAKES TWICE AS
MANY ACCOUNTS AT EACH LEVEL.

IT'S A PYRAMID SCHEME.
YOU KNOW, IT CAN'T LAST,

BUT BY THE 19TH PROGRESSION,

(coins clinking) RILEY HAD
SIPHONED OFF $524,288.

RIGHT, 'CAUSE HE'D ALWAYS NEED TWICE
AS MUCH TO REPLACE WHAT HE'D TAKEN.

YOU RUN OUT OF RESOURCES.

THE PYRAMID COLLAPSES.

(Charlie) AND BY THE TIME
IT ALL CRASHES DOWN,

RILEY'S LONG GONE.

(Don) SO YOU'RE SAYING
HE MADE SOLICITATIONS

TO SMITH-WATERSON'S INVESTORS.

I MEAN, I'D LIKE TO KNOW
HOW HE GOT THAT LIST.

THAT SHOULDN'T BE
TOO HARD TO FIGURE OUT.

LET ME SEE WHAT I CAN DO.

(Don) THE LISA
BAYLE MURDER CASE,

I NEED YOU TO, UH,
LOOK AT THE EVIDENCE

AND JUST SEE IF THERE'S
SOMETHING I'M MISSING.

WELL, I... I HAVE NO IDEA HOW
TO EVALUATE FORENSIC EVIDENCE.

WELL, IT'S JUST LOGIC,
CHARLIE. YOU'RE TRAINED IN THAT.

YOU KNOW HOW TO SPOT
INCONSISTENCIES, RIGHT?

I MEAN, IT'S LIKE WHEN A
MATHEMATICIAN MAKES A BREAKTHROUGH.

HE GETS HIS PEERS, RIGHT? A
PEER REVIEW TO CHECK HIS FINDINGS.

IT'S WHAT WE DO.

WELL, JUST DO ME A FAVOR
AND SEE IF I MADE ANY MISTAKES.

WHAT INCRIMINATING
EVIDENCE WAS THERE?

WELL, FIRST OF ALL, WE
GOT A... A CONFESSION,

WE GOT A FINGERPRINT, WE
GOT AN EYEWITNESS ACCOUNT.

ALL RIGHT, I'LL TRY TO UNDERSTAND THE
METHODOLOGY BEHIND EACH OF THOSE.

GREAT. THANKS. HEY, NO PROBLEM.

I GOT A LINE ON HOW RILEY GOT
SMITH-WATERSON'S MAILING LIST.

HIS GIRLFRIEND, MIKELLE
PETERS, WORKS THERE.

YOU GAVE TREVOR A LIST OF YOUR
COMPANY'S CLIENT E-MAIL ADDRESSES.

HE SAID NO ONE WOULD NOTICE.

DAMN HIM.

HE SAID IF I DIDN'T
GIVE HIM THAT LIST,

HE'D TELL THEM ABOUT ME.

SO YOU WERE BLACKMAILED?

LISTEN, YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE
FACING HERE? YOU'RE AN ACCESSORY TO FRAUD.

THAT'S JUST FOR STARTERS.

HE FOUND OUT.

GOD KNOWS HOW.

THAT I DIDN'T GRADUATE
FROM COLLEGE.

I LIED ON MY RESUME
TO GET THIS JOB.

HE THREATENS TO EXPOSE
YOU, YOU KEEP DATING HIM?

HE HAD MONEY,

SPENT LOTS OF IT ON ME.

YOU KNOW SOMEONE
NAMED JOSE SALAZAR?

WHO?

JOSE SALAZAR.

OH, YEAH, THE ELECTRICIAN?

I THINK TREVOR SCAMMED
HIM OR SOMETHING.

JUST TELL ME IF YOU
RECOGNIZE ANY OF THEM,

BUT TAKE YOUR TIME.

(sighing)

(Don) WHAT DO YOU THINK?

THE SECOND FROM THE LEFT.

CAN YOU POINT TO HIM?

(Andric) NUMBER 2.

OK, I NEED YOU TO SIGN IT TO SHOW
THAT THIS IS THE MAN YOU'RE IDENTIFYING

AS THE ONE YOU SAW IN TREVOR RILEY'S
APARTMENT ON THE MORNING HE WAS KILLED.

(Don) HEY, JOSE, GOT A COUPLE
MORE QUESTIONS FOR YOU.

OH, DON'T DO THIS.

YOU GO RIGHT. I'M ON IT!

(metallic clanking)

(grunting)

(David) STAY DOWN!

(all panting)

(handcuffs rattling)

HE SAID HE COULD ADD A ZERO.

TO WHAT?

TO MY $8,000.

(Salazar) 17 YEARS OF SAVINGS.

THEN YOU FIND OUT HE'S ABOUT
TO LEAVE TOWN WITH YOUR MONEY.

NO, THAT'S WHAT
YOU'RE TELLING ME.

I DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS MOVING.

(Terry) WE'VE GOT PRINTS,

WE'VE GOT THE RIGHT GAUGE
WIRE IN THE BACK OF YOUR TRUCK,

WE GOT AN EYEWITNESS
THAT MAKES A LIAR OUT OF YOU.

THE MORNING THAT RILEY DIED,

I WAS AT THE BATTING CAGES.

YOU COULD ASK ANYONE THERE.

WE DID. THE MANAGER
DOESN'T REMEMBER YOU.

YOU KNOW A WOMAN
NAMED LISA BAYLE?

APRIL 9, 2004. WHERE WERE YOU?

IN SAN DIEGO.

SPENT THE WEEK ON A BIG JOB.

WIRING APARTMENTS.

AND I DON'T KNOW WHO
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

(Don) I DON'T KNOW.

DO YOU THINK HE
RECOGNIZED HER NAME?

HARD TO SAY. YEAH.

HE REACTED.

I MEAN, HE'S GOT
MOTIVE FOR KILLING RILEY,

AN EYEWITNESS PUT
HIM AT THE SCENE,

HE THREATENED THE VICTIM,
HE LIED ABOUT HIS ALIBI.

YEAH, THAT'S ALL GOOD, BUT ALL
WE'VE GOT ON LISA BAYLE'S A SIMILAR M.O.

COULD BE COINCIDENCE.

YEAH, I MEAN...

MY GUT SAYS NO, BUT I ASKED
CHARLIE TO RUN SOME NUMBERS ON IT.

I'M GONNA GO SEE IF I
CAN TRACK HIM DOWN.

OK.

(Don) SO WHAT'S THE POSSIBILITY

THAT THESE 2 MURDERS COULD HAVE
BEEN DONE BY DIFFERENT PEOPLE?

OK.

ACCORDING TO THE F.B.I.'S CRIME
STATS, IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY,

3 OR 4 PEOPLE ARE KILLED
WITH A GARROTE EVERY YEAR.

AND 5% OF TOTAL MURDERS IN THE
UNITED STATES TAKE PLACE IN LOS ANGELES.

SO, ASSUMING THAT

HE DIDN'T GET THE IDEA
FROM THE FIRST KILLER,

THERE'S A 4.9% CHANCE
THAT THIS IS A COINCIDENCE.

YEAH, I KNEW IT WOULD BE SLIM.

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?

WELL, I'M GOING TO HOLD JOSE SALAZAR
FOR THE MURDER OF TREVOR RILEY,

AND JUST SEE IF I CAN
LINK HIM TO LISA BAYLE.

AND IF CLIFF HOWARD'S IN
JAIL BY MISTAKE, THEN I'LL FIX IT.

(buzzer ringing)

WHY DO I HAVE TO TELL
YOU ALL OVER AGAIN?

BECAUSE I NEED YOU
TO TELL ME THE TRUTH

ABOUT WHAT
HAPPENED TO LISA BAYLE.

I TOLD YOU. I TOLD EVERYONE.

I KILLED HER, AND I'M SORRY.

OK, PLEASE TAKE ME
THROUGH IT ONE MORE TIME.

I NEEDED A CAR.

SHE WAS LOST, SHE
ASKED FOR DIRECTIONS.

I PRETENDED I DIDN'T HEAR.

SHE GOT OUT OF THE
CAR. I CAME UP BEHIND HER,

WRAPPED THE WIRE
AROUND HER NECK,

PUSHED MY KNEE INTO
HER BACK AND PULLED.

HER FEET LIFTED OFF THE GROUND.

I PUT HER BODY IN THE BACKSEAT.

I'M SORRY FOR WHAT I DID.

WHEN I ARRESTED YOU, YOU
TOLD ME YOU DIDN'T DO IT.

YOU SAID YOU WERE HOME ALONE.

I LIED.

CLIFF, WERE YOU
COERCED INTO CONFESSING?

NO.

YOU'RE NOT COVERING FOR ANYBODY?

I DID IT.

ALONE.

AND I'M SORRY.

YOU KNOW SOMEONE
NAMED JOSE SALAZAR?

NO.

TREVOR RILEY?

NEVER HEARD OF HIM.

MRS. HOWARD, REMEMBER ME?

DON EPPES, F.B.I.?

THIS IS AGENT SINCLAIR.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

WE NEED TO ASK YOU A FEW
QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR HUSBAND.

OK?

(sighing)

CLIFF TOLD YOU HE DID IT AND HE
TOLD YOU HE WAS SORRY, RIGHT?

RIGHT. AND I NEED TO KNOW, AND
YOU GOTTA BE HONEST WITH ME,

DID HE EVER SAY
THAT HE DIDN'T DO IT?

AGENT EPPES, LISA BAYLE WAS A
WEALTHY WOMAN, 3 MONTHS PREGNANT.

WE LIVED 3 BLOCKS AWAY
FROM WHERE SHE WAS FOUND.

YOU HAD HIS FINGERPRINTS
AND A WITNESS SAW HIM.

YOU'RE NOT ANSWERING
MY QUESTION.

MY HUSBAND TOOK A LAWYER'S
ADVICE, HE CONFESSED.

HE'S A MODEL PRISONER
AND HE EXPRESSES REMORSE,

AND IN 27 YEARS

HE MIGHT GET OUT
WHEN MY SON IS 30.

(David) MRS. HOWARD, WE'RE LOOKING
AT YOUR HUSBAND'S CASE AGAIN.

WE NEED TO KNOW IF THERE'S
ANYTHING HE CAN ADD TO HIS STORY.

GOOD.

LOOK AGAIN.

BUT CLIFF CAN'T HELP YOU.

HE'S STICKING TO HIS STORY
OR RISK LOSING HIS PAROLE.

(boy) MOMMY?

(Velma) HEY, IT'S OK, BABY.

HEY. OK, COME HERE.

(whispering) COME ON, DARLIN'.

OK. THANKS.

HEY, CHARLIE. HEY.

WHAT'S UP?

I WANTED TO ASK DON ABOUT THE
EYEWITNESS IN THE LISA BAYLE CASE.

YEAH?

DO YOU THINK CLIFF HOWARD'S
LINEUP WAS CONDUCTED

IN THE SAME MANNER AS
THE ONE I SAW YESTERDAY,

THE ONE OF THE MAN SUSPECTED
OF KILLING TREVOR RILEY?

YEAH, ALL LINEUPS ARE CONDUCTED
PRETTY MUCH IN THE SAME MANNER. WHY?

HMM.

(people chattering)

PICK A NUMBER, ANY NUMBER.

3.

PICK ANOTHER NUMBER.

6.

PICK ONE MORE. OK,
BUT THIS IS THE LAST.

1.

I ASKED YOU TO PICK
A NUMBER 3 TIMES

AND 3 TIMES YOU PICKED A
NUMBER BETWEEN 1 AND 6.

WHY? WHY'D... WHY'D YOU DO THAT?

WHY DIDN'T YOU PICK
0, OR 3,000, OR... OR 7?

BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T
WRITE THOSE DOWN.

I DIDN'T... I DIDN'T
SAY PICK A NUMBER

THAT I WROTE ON
THE PAPER, DID I?

NO, I JUST ASSUMED. EXACTLY.

A WITNESS ASSUMES
THAT HE HAS TO PICK

ONE OF THE 6 PEOPLE
HE'S LOOKING AT, RIGHT?

HIS DECISION IS BASED
ON THAT ASSUMPTION.

LINEUPS ARE DICTATED
BY BUREAU POLICY.

THEY'RE BASED ON CASE LAW.

IT'S THE WAY THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT
HAS RUN LINEUPS FOR YEARS.

THAT DOESN'T MAKE IT RIGHT.

HOW IS THIS MATH?

IT'S NOT MATH,
IT'S LOGIC, REALLY.

MATHEMATICIANS
ARE TRAINED IN LOGIC.

ALL RIGHT, LOOK,
THERE IS ANOTHER WAY.

IT'S CALLED A SEQUENTIAL LINEUP.

WE SHOW PHOTOS ONE AT A TIME,

AND ASK EACH TIME,
"IS THIS THE GUY?"

STUDIES SHOW IT
REDUCES FALSE POSITIVES,

BUT IT ALSO REDUCES THE
NUMBER OF POSITIVE I.D.'S,

EVEN WHEN THE TARGET IS PRESENT.

IF CLIFF HOWARD WAS IDENTIFIED

BY A WITNESS LOOKING AT
A TRADITIONAL LINEUP, THEN,

WELL, THEN, THAT I.D.
COULD BE WRONG, RIGHT?

OK, I'LL TALK TO THE WITNESS
IN THE BAYLE CASE AGAIN.

THANKS.

I'VE NEVER SEEN HIM
BEFORE. ARE YOU SURE?

YEAH.

I MEAN, MAYBE HE DID SOME
WORK FOR YOU GUYS AROUND HERE.

YEAH, HE COULD
HAVE. I WOULDN'T KNOW.

LISA WAS IN CHARGE OF ALL THAT.

I'M JUST TRYING TO FIGURE
OUT IF THERE'S ANY POSSIBILITY

THAT THIS MAN KNEW YOUR WIFE.

WHY?

YOU'RE NOT GONNA
WANT TO HEAR THIS,

BUT THERE ARE SOME QUESTIONS
ABOUT CLIFF HOWARD'S CONVICTION.

THE BASTARD SAID
HE DID IT. I KNOW.

I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU IN A YEAR.

I... I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU

SINCE YOU INTERROGATED
ME FOR 48 HOURS. SIR...

I HAD TO CALL THE FUNERAL HOME

HANDCUFFED TO A TABLE. I WAS
PURSUING YOUR WIFE'S MURDER

WHEREVER IT TOOK
ME. SO HELP ME...

NOW YOU WANNA TEAR
THESE WOUNDS OPEN AGAIN.

I DON'T WANT TO DO THAT.

THAT'S YOUR, UH,

YOUR DAUGHTER.
WHAT'S HER NAME? PAULA?

YES. RIGHT.

MAY I?

GO AHEAD.

SHE'S A SOPHOMORE NOW.

JONAS, DON'T YOU WANT TO KNOW
THE TRUTH ABOUT YOUR WIFE'S DEATH?

CLIFF HOWARD IS THE TRUTH.

(knocking on door)

OH, I SEE WE'RE
OFF ON YET ANOTHER

EXCITING AREA OF CRIMINOLOGY.

YEP.

DON THINKS HE MAY HAVE PUT THE
WRONG MAN IN JAIL FOR MURDER.

I'M TRYING TO DETERMINE
WHETHER HIS CASE HOLDS UP OR NOT.

SO, WHAT, YOU'RE ANALYZING
MODERN AMERICAN CRIMINAL SCIENCE?

I'M WORKING ON AN APPLICATION
OF STATISTICAL ANALYSIS

AS IT APPLIES TO
EYEWITNESS IDENTIFICATION.

IT'S CLEAR THAT THE 6-MAN, SIDE-BY-SIDE
LINEUP IS INTRINSICALLY FLAWED.

YES. YES, I CAN SEE THAT,

BUT IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE
THAT YOU'RE WORKING ON HERE,

I MEAN, WAS THE
WRONG MAN IDENTIFIED?

WE'RE NOT SURE, BUT, UH,
BUT UNDER THIS SYSTEM,

IT'S POSSIBLE THAT A WITNESS
IDENTIFIED THE WRONG MAN.

(laughing) WELL,
YES, IT'S POSSIBLE,

BUT IS THAT WHAT
ACTUALLY HAPPENED HERE?

I MEAN, HAVE YOU DEVELOPED
A TEST TO DETERMINE THAT?

NO. WE'RE STUDYING
THE METHODOLOGY ITSELF.

WELL, WHY?

NOT THE ACCURACY OF
THE INDIVIDUAL RESULT?

YOU'RE TRYING TO SAY THAT
WE SHOULDN'T BE DEBUNKING

THE TRADITIONAL METHOD OF IDENTIFYING
SUSPECTS THROUGH POLICE LINEUPS,

EVEN THOUGH IT'S
SEEMINGLY UNRELIABLE?

OK, I JUST...

(grunts)

YEAH, JUST...

I WOULD JUST CONSIDER
THE IMPLICATIONS

JUST VERY CAREFULLY, YOU KNOW.

'CAUSE THIS IS A REAL
MURDER CASE, ISN'T IT?

I MEAN, SOMEONE HAS DIED AND...

YEAH, I MEAN, YES, YOU'VE
DEMONSTRATED THAT

THE IDENTIFICATION MAY BE WRONG.

IT'S JUST THAT YOU HAVEN'T
PROVEN IT WAS WRONG.

(door closing)

MRS. MALLOY, DID HE RUN
TOWARDS YOU OR AWAY FROM YOU?

AWAY.

(Terry) AND IT WAS DARK.

WELL, HE LOOKED BEHIND.

HE WAS ABOUT, UH, 6 FEET TALL,

AND WEARING A
SWEATSHIRT AND, UH, JEANS.

AND THIS IS THE SAME MAN
YOU SAW IN THE LINEUP?

WELL, OF COURSE HE WAS THERE.

I PICKED HIM OUT.

YES.

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THIS MAN?

THAT'S THE MAN I SAW.

OK.

THANK YOU.

JANICE MALLOY IDENTIFIED
SALAZAR AS LISA BAYLE'S KILLER,

BUT BEFORE, SHE MADE A
POSITIVE I.D. OF CLIFF HOWARD.

DOESN'T INSPIRE CONFIDENCE.

SHE WAS NEVER CROSS-EXAMINED,
SINCE HOWARD PLED OUT.

SO WE HAVE AN EYEWITNESS
THAT MIGHT NOT BE RELIABLE,

AND THERE'S DOUBTS
ABOUT THE CONFESSION.

THE ONLY HARD
EVIDENCE AGAINST HOWARD

IS THE FINGERPRINT
ON BAYLE'S BODY.

WHICH I WANT TO
GET CHECKED AGAIN,

AND AGAIN IF WE HAVE TO.

LET'S DO IT.

(keys clacking)

I'M COMPARING A CLEAN SET
OF CLIFF HOWARD'S PRINTS

WITH THIS, TAKEN
FROM LISA BAYLE'S BODY.

(Don) RIGHT. 25% IS VISIBLE.

THE REST IS OBVIOUSLY DISTORTED.

OK, SO THERE IS A CHANCE IT'S NOT
HOWARD'S PRINT, RIGHT? A CHANCE?

MMM, NOT EXACTLY.

(keys clicking)

(technician) I FOUND
7 COMMONALITIES

BETWEEN THE PRINT
FOUND ON THE BODY

AND THE ONE TAKEN
DIRECTLY FROM HOWARD.

HERE, THE SAME RIDGES FORM DOTS,

AND HERE, THE SAME BIFURCATIONS,

AND FROM THAT, I'D SAY THAT
THE PRINT FROM THE CRIME SCENE

IS CLIFF HOWARD'S.

WHICH WOULD MEAN
HE DID KILL HER.

HOW DO WE KNOW THAT EVERYONE
HAS THEIR OWN UNIQUE FINGERPRINT?

BECAUSE NO 2 PEOPLE HAVE EVER
BEEN FOUND TO HAVE THE SAME PRINTS.

(Charlie) MMM-HMM. AND YOU'VE
EXAMINED EVERYONE'S PRINT?

LIKE, EVERYONE ON
THE WHOLE PLANET?

I-IT'S AN ASSUMPTION WE MAKE, BASED
ON 100 YEARS OF EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE.

IT IS.

(Charlie) HOW OFTEN DOES
ONE PART OF SOMEONE'S PRINT

RESEMBLE SOMEONE ELSE'S?

(technician) I COULDN'T
TELL YOU THAT.

WE'VE NEVER DONE
THOSE KIND OF, UH,

POPULATION SURVEYS.

ISN'T RANDOM MATCH PROBABILITY
THE ONLY WAY YOU HAVE OF KNOWING

THE LIKELIHOOD OF
2 PRINTS MATCHING?

RANDOM MATCH IS
USED IN D.N.A. ANALYSIS.

EXACTLY. THAT'S WHY, WHEN
EXPERTS MAKE A D.N.A. MATCH,

THEY DON'T SAY
IT'S A SURE THING.

THEY SAY THERE'S A
1 IN 4 BILLION CHANCE

THAT THE D.N.A. SAMPLE
COMES FROM THE SAME PERSON.

BUT FINGERPRINTS
DON'T HAVE ODDS.

THEY JUST MATCH
OR THEY DON'T MATCH?

2 TECHNICIANS BEFORE
ME ALSO DETERMINED

THAT THIS THUMBPRINT
BELONGS TO CLIFF HOWARD.

(scoffing) WHY... WHY IS THAT...

WHY IS THAT A THUMBPRINT?

I MEAN, WHY NOT, LIKE A...
LIKE A LEFT INDEX FINGER?

BECAUSE IT HAS THE ARCHES,
LOOPS AND WHORLS OF A THUMB.

SEE THE CENTER OF
THIS WHORL HERE?

IT'S A CLOCK
FACE. THIS IS 12:00.

WHAT SHAPE IS THIS?

A CONE.

HMM. DEPENDS ON
HOW YOU LOOK AT IT.

SEE, FROM DIFFERENT
ANGLES IT'S A CIRCLE,

OR IT'S A TRIANGLE.

A PENROSE TRIANGLE, WHICH
IS AN IMPOSSIBLE FIGURE.

A CORK PLUG, WHICH CAN BE USED

AS A STOPPER FOR A ROUND,
TRIANGULAR OR SQUARE HOLE,

DEPENDING ON HOW YOU TURN IT.

SEE, YOU... YOU ASSUME
THAT THIS IS A THUMBPRINT

BECAUSE YOU APPROACH IT AS SUCH.

BUT IS IT POSSIBLE
THAT SOMEONE ELSE

(keys clicking) HAS A
LEFT INDEX FINGER

IN WHICH A QUARTER-SECTION,
TURNED SIDEWAYS,

HAS POINTS OF COMMONALITY
WITH CLIFF HOWARD'S THUMB?

I'VE BEEN DOING
THIS JOB FOR 8 YEARS.

ARE YOU BETTER AT IT NOW
THAN YOU WERE 8 YEARS AGO?

OF COURSE.

OF COURSE. SO...

SO IT'S NOT PURE SCIENCE, IT'S
INTERPRETIVE. IT'S AN ART, IF YOU WILL.

CJIS HAS AN ACCURACY
RATE OF 99.7%.

THAT'S 3,000 MISTAKES PER EVERY
MILLION SEARCHES. DO ME A FAVOR

AND RECHECK THE PRINT
AGAINST SALAZAR'S OTHER FINGERS.

I... I DON'T HAVE TO.

THIS RIDGE FORM IS KNOWN
AS A BUTCHER'S HOOK.

IT'S RARE, AND SALAZAR
DOESN'T HAVE IT.

ON ANY FINGER.

OK, TELL ME I'M CRAZY.

I THINK I'VE JUST FOUND A WAY
TO EXPRESS CALABI-YAU MANIFOLDS

IN A WAY THAT GOES
BEYOND THE EXISTENCE

OF A NON-VANISHING
HARMONIC SPINOR.

C-CHARLES.

HAS HE BEEN OUT THERE ALL NIGHT?

WELL, ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, IT SEEMS LIKE
DON'S TAKEN UP AN INTEREST IN SPORTS AGAIN.

(sighing) IT'S LIKE THE
EVIDENCE PROVES HIM RIGHT

AND WRONG AT THE SAME TIME.

OH, YEAH, THE OLD PARADOX
OF SCHRODINGER'S CAT.

IS THAT THAT PERSIAN THAT
KEEPS HIDING OUT IN OUR GARAGE?

MMM-MMM, IT'S AN
INTELLECTUAL EXERCISE.

I KNEW THAT.

OK, THIS IS VASTLY SIMPLIFIED.

THERE'S A CAT IN A BOX.

50-50 CHANCE IT'S BEEN POISONED,

BUT NOW HERE'S THE PARADOX:

UNTIL SUCH TIME AS WE CAN OPEN
THE BOX, AND OBSERVE THE CAT,

FOR THAT TIME, THAT
CAT IS BOTH ALIVE

AND DEAD.

LARRY, I... I... I FAIL TO SEE
THE ANALOGY, THOUGH.

I MEAN, IN REALITY, DON CAN'T BE BOTH
RIGHT AND WRONG AT THE SAME TIME.

WELL, OF COURSE NOT. I MEAN, IF
A MAN IS BOTH RIGHT AND WRONG,

THEN SOMETHING'S GOTTA BE WRONG.

NO, NO. THE TRUTH
OF SCHRODINGER'S CAT

IS THAT THE QUESTION
ITSELF IS MEANINGLESS

UNTIL WE LOOK INSIDE THE BOX.

LET'S SAY THAT
I'M ALLEN IVERSON.

CHARLIE, I'M NOT IN THE MOOD.

AND I'M THE ONLY
PERSON IN THE WORLD

THAT CAN GET PAST
YOU FOR 2 POINTS.

I JUST PROVED I'M ALLEN IVERSON.

NO, YOU JUST PROVED
THAT 20 YEARS LATER,

I'M STILL FALLING
FOR THE SAME FAKE.

IT'S A SYLLOGISTIC FALLACY.

IT'S BASED ON A WRONG
ASSUMPTION. YEAH?

I'M OBVIOUSLY NOT
ALLEN IVERSON. YEAH.

SAYING THAT I AM, THEN PROPOSING
A TEST DOESN'T CHANGE THAT.

SO WHAT DOES THIS
HAVE TO DO WITH MY CASE?

YOU FOUND A LINK BETWEEN
SALAZAR AND LISA BAYLE

BECAUSE YOU
THOUGHT HE WAS GUILTY.

AND WHAT IF YOU'RE WRONG?

THEN FINDING A
LINK TO LISA BAYLE

WON'T MAKE YOU RIGHT.

MAYBE THERE'S A DIFFERENT
LINK THAT'LL TELL YOU MORE.

LIKE A LINK BETWEEN THE VICTIMS.

WHICH WOULD MEAN A... COULD
MEAN A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT KILLER,

NOT HOWARD OR SALAZAR. RIGHT?

SO IS THIS MATH OR LOGIC?

SAME THING.

NO.

NO.

NO.

WHAT ABOUT HIM?

NO.

HE'S ALWAYS IN CAGE 4.

TUESDAY-THURSDAY GUY.

ME, I'M USUALLY
HERE 5, 6 DAYS A WEEK.

LET ME ASK YOU THIS, DO YOU, BY
ANY CHANCE, RECALL IF HE WAS HERE

THURSDAY MORNING, THE 8TH?

I WENT TO VEGAS ON THE 9TH.

YEAH, HE WAS HERE.

YEAH?

YEAH.

(David) CONFLICTING WITNESSES.

THIS GUY PUTS SALAZAR HERE
AT THE TIME OF THE RILEY MURDER.

RILEY'S NEIGHBOR, MARK ANDRIC,

HE PUTS HIM AT THE SCENE.

AND YOU KNOW, ANDRIC
WORKS OVER AT WESTMORE.

I'LL BET HE'S PROBABLY
GETTING IN AROUND NOW.

MAYBE WE SHOULD GO SEE
IF WE CAN GET HIM TO CLARIFY

A THING OR 2, HUH? OK.

PUT ANY MORE THOUGHT INTO
PLAYING FOR THE F.B.I. TEAM?

AH, YOU KNOW,

I PLAYED MINOR LEAGUE BALL.

THE STOCKTON RANGERS.

MY LAST TIME UP AT BAT,
PITCHER'S ON FUMES, RIGHT?

THROWS ME A GOPHER BALL, I
MEAN THE KIND OF FAT, SLOW PITCH

YOU KNOW IS GOING OVER
THE FENCE. AW, YOU MISSED IT.

DOUBLED. OK.

BY THE TIME I GOT AROUND FIRST,

I KNEW IN MY HEART

I'D NEVER BE MORE THAN A
MEDIOCRE SINGLE "A" PLAYER.

SIGNED UP FOR THE F.B.I.
ENTRANCE EXAM THE NEXT DAY.

(bell ringing)

(students chattering)

OH, YEAH.

WAIT, I'VE SEEN THAT CREST.

LISA BAYLE'S DAUGHTER
GOES TO THIS SCHOOL.

I THINK SHE PLAYS THE VIOLIN.

THAT'S GOTTA BE THE CONNECTION.

THE KID TAKES MUSIC
LESSONS FROM ANDRIC.

BAYLE AND RILEY
KNOW THE SAME MAN

AND THEY'RE KILLED
THE EXACT SAME WAY.

IT'S NOT COINCIDENCE. NO.

(Don) EXCUSE ME.
WE'RE WITH THE F.B.I.

IS THIS MARK ANDRIC'S CLASSROOM?

UH, YEAH. HE'S OUT
SICK. I'M THE SUB.

SIR, I'D LIKE TO LOOK THROUGH
THIS DRAWER. IS THAT OK WITH YOU?

YEAH, SURE.

HOW LONG YOU BEEN HERE?

JUST OVER A WEEK.

A WEEK.

F.B.I. WARRANT!

WE'RE F.B.I.! WARRANT!

(Terry) GOING TO THE RIGHT.

F.B.I. WARRANT!

(David) CLEAR!

(Terry) CLEAR!

(Terry) BEDROOM'S CLEAR.

HE'S GONE.

(Don) THE MAN WE
KNOW AS MARK ANDRIC

CAME HERE FROM
BOSNIA, 10 YEARS AGO.

HOWEVER,

THESE FINGERPRINTS
IDENTIFY HIM AS

FORMER SERBIAN ARMY
LIEUTENANT RAMUS ZELJADA.

HIS RIGHT INDEX FINGER HAS A
PERFECT BUTCHER'S HOOK RIDGE FORM.

THIS IS THE SAME FORMATION THAT
WAS FOUND ON LISA BAYLE'S BODY.

MUST'VE FIGURED OUT
WHO ANDRIC REALLY WAS.

AND GIVEN HIS HISTORY, I
THINK IT'S SAFE TO ASSUME

HE USED BLACKMAIL TO
TRY TO KEEP HIM QUIET.

BUT ZELJADA, BEING A
SOCIOPATH, HE KILLS RILEY INSTEAD.

THEN HE THREW US SALAZAR TO
GIVE HIMSELF TIME TO DISAPPEAR.

SO WE GOT 2 INNOCENT MEN IN JAIL

AND HE'S GOT AN
8-DAY LEAD ON US,

SO PLEASE, LET'S KICK IT IN
AND SEE WHAT WE CAN DO.

ANDRIC LIVED IN 4 CITIES
IN THE LAST 10 YEARS.

SYDNEY, NEW YORK,

CHICAGO, L.A.

QUESTION IS, WHERE
DOES HE GO NEXT?

HE'S BEEN MOVING WEST.

SAN FRANCISCO?

HONOLULU?

THE MAN KNOWS HOW
TO STAY ANONYMOUS,

NOT EVEN A PARKING
TICKET TO HIS NAME.

THEY'VE GOT HIM.

OFF A CREDIT CARD USED AT AN
ECONO EXPRESS IN WASHINGTON.

SEATTLE SWAT HAS THE
ROOM SURROUNDED. ALL RIGHT.

SUSPECTS SURRENDERED
AFTER 10 MINUTES OF NEGOTIATION,

UNARMED AND COMPLIANT.

HOLD ON. DID YOU SAY "SUSPECTS"?

WE THOUGHT HE WAS ALONE.

HE PICKED UP A PARTNER AT
A TRUCK STOP IN BAKERSFIELD.

WHITE MALE, 20s,
STUNNINGLY POOR HYGIENE.

THEIR HOTEL ROOM WAS SET UP
FOR LOW-LEVEL METH MANUFACTURING.

LOOKS LIKE THEY WERE SETTLING
IN FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS.

HERE'S YOUR SUSPECT.

WAIT, WHO'S THAT?

THE CREDIT CARDS YOU
HAD, WHERE'D YOU GET THEM?

UH, A MARK SOMETHING.

I... I... I KNOW HIM
FROM A BAR IN L.A.

I... I NEEDED TO
GET OUT OF TOWN.

HE... HE SOLD ME
THE CARD FOR $200.

(sighing) SYDNEY, NEW YORK,

CHICAGO, L.A.

ALL CITIES WITH MASS TRANSIT,

FINE ARTS, ARCHITECTURE.

THEY'RE ALL NEAR BODIES OF WATER,
HAVE EASY ACCESS TO TRANSPORTATION.

CHARLIE, ANYTHING?

MATHEMATICAL, LOGICAL?

I DON'T KNOW. YOU GUYS HAVE ALL
THE EXPERIENCE IN FINDING FUGITIVES.

DON.

REMEMBER HOW YOU
COULD NEVER LAY OFF

LOW AND OUTSIDE PITCHES?

WHAT? SORRY, BUT
LOW AND OUTSIDE.

Y-Y-YOU COULDN'T STOP SWINGING AT THOSE
PITCHES, NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU MISSED,

NO MATTER HOW MUCH
IT HURT YOUR AVERAGE.

CHARLIE, WHAT ARE
YOU TALKING ABOUT?

(Charlie) EVERYONE HAS
SOMETHING THEY LIKE TO DO,

THEY CAN'T HELP DOING.

YOU CAN'T HELP BUT SWING
AT LOW AND OUTSIDE PITCHES.

WHAT DOES ANDRIC DO?

WHAT CAN'T HE STAY AWAY FROM?

REMEMBER WHEN WE FIRST TALKED
TO HIM, HE WAS LISTENING TO OPERA?

SAID HE'D BEEN AT THE OPERA THE
NIGHT THEY FOUND LISA BAYLE'S BODY.

ALL 4 CITIES WHERE HE'S LIVED,

THEY HAVE WORLD-CLASS
OPERA COMPANIES.

HEY, YOU'RE RIGHT.

SEE IF THERE'S ANY MAJOR
O-OPERAS IN L.A. RIGHT NOW.

THAT'S WHY HE SOLD HIS
CREDIT CARDS TO A DRUG DEALER

FOR ALMOST NO MONEY.

YEAH, TO CREATE A FALSE TRAIL,

TO MAKE IT APPEAR
LIKE HE'S LEAVING TOWN

WHEN HE'S ACTUALLY
STILL HERE, MAN,

AND HE JUST DOESN'T
WANT YOU TO KNOW.

(Terry) ZELJADA HAD A
POSTER OF THE SINGER

MAGDALENA URNATOVA
IN HIS APARTMENT.

HER FINAL PERFORMANCE
OF AIDA IS TONIGHT

AT THE DOROTHY
CHANDLER PAVILION.

ALL RIGHT, WELL,
WHO LIKES OPERA?

ANYTHING?

NOT YET.

(man) WE HAVE A
VISUAL ON THE SUSPECT.

CONTINUE TO FOLLOW.

(Don) STAY ON HIM.

DAVID, YOU GOT HIM?

(David) I HAVEN'T SEEN HIM YET.

(man) SUSPECT'S
HEADED INTO THE PLAZA!

(woman groaning)

I GOT HIM!

GO! (David) I'M IN PURSUIT!

(David) MOVE!

(David) GET BACK! MOVE!

ANDRIC! GET OUT OF THE WAY!

GET OUT OF THE WAY!

(grunting)

(David) DO NOT MOVE!

STOP RESISTING! THERE'S
A GUN AGAINST YOUR HEAD!

(Don) ALL AGENTS,
SUSPECT IS IN CUSTODY.

I'LL GIVE HIM CREDIT. HE KNOWS
HOW TO RESIST AN INTERROGATION.

WELL, I MEAN, COMPARED TO
WHAT HE'S USED TO IN BOSNIA,

THIS IS A CAKEWALK.

I STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND
WHY HE KILLED LISA BAYLE.

WHAT'S HIS MOTIVE?

(Jonas) MARK ANDRIC.

YEAH,

LISA KNEW HIM.

SHE SPENT A LOT OF TIME WITH HIM

BECAUSE SHE VOLUNTEERED
AT THE HIGH SCHOOL.

THEY WORKED TOGETHER ON A
SCHOOL HISTORY PROJECT OF SOME SORT.

NOW, JONAS, I KNOW
HOW HARD THIS IS FOR YOU.

IT'S NOT EASY FOR
ME TO ASK, BUT...

YOU WANT TO KNOW

DID I SUSPECT THERE WAS
SOMETHING GOING ON BETWEEN THEM?

YEAH.

YES, I DID.

THOUGH I WASN'T SURE.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND. I MEAN, WHY
DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THAT BEFORE?

DIDN'T YOU THINK THE POSSIBILITY
THAT SHE WAS HAVING AN AFFAIR

MIGHT BE CONNECTED TO
HER DEATH IN SOME WAY?

LOOK, FIRST OFF,

I WAS YOUR CHIEF SUSPECT.

IF YOU KNEW THAT I THOUGHT
SHE WAS HAVING AN AFFAIR,

THAT WOULD HAVE
CONVINCED YOU I WAS GUILTY.

ANYWAY, ALMOST IMMEDIATELY,
YOU ARRESTED CLIFF HOWARD,

AND HE CONFESSED.

OK.

THIS IS, UH, MY LAST
DIFFICULT QUESTION.

LISA WAS 3 MONTHS
PREGNANT AT THE TIME.

I DON'T THINK THE BABY WAS MINE.

BUT AFTER SHE DIED...

(sighing)

I DIDN'T WANT TO DWELL ON IT.

AND IT DIDN'T SEEM TO HAVE
ANYTHING TO DO WITH WHY SHE DIED.

DO YOU THINK NOW THAT IT DID?

YEAH, I DO.

(Don) THE EYEWITNESS WAS WRONG.

THE FINGERPRINT
TECHNICIAN MADE A MISTAKE.

A MISTAKE?

MAN, HOW CAN THAT BE?

YOU KNOW, I MEAN, WE
PRETTY MUCH USE SCIENCE

FOR EVERYTHING WE DO
THESE DAYS, AND I THINK,

YOU KNOW, AS LONG AS
THERE'S PEOPLE INVOLVED,

THERE'S... THERE'S GOING TO BE

MISTAKES. NOT TO JUSTIFY IT, BUT

I'M SORRY.

THE FIRST THING I SAID TO YOU

IS THAT I DIDN'T DO IT.

I KNOW. I TOLD
YOU, I... I REMEMBER.

(bat thudding)

(bat thudding)

YOUR SUCKER PITCH. SLOW AND
OUTSIDE, MAN. YOU... YOU DIDN'T SWING.

YOU DON'T SAY?

YOU KNOW, I'VE BEEN RUNNING SOME
NUMBERS FROM YOUR MINOR LEAGUE DAYS.

I WANTED TO SEE WHICH ONES ARE
THE BEST PITCHES FOR YOU TO GO AFTER.

CHARLIE, I DON'T LIKE TO THINK
ABOUT IT TOO MUCH, ALL RIGHT?

WHY NOT? IF YOU CAN ANALYZE YOUR
PERFORMANCE, YOU CAN IMPROVE IT, DON.

SOME THINGS ARE
ABOUT HOW IT FEELS.

I THINK I CAN QUANTIFY WHAT FEELS
RIGHT ABOUT A PARTICULAR PITCH.

OH, YEAH.

SEE, I THINK THE F.B.I. MIGHT HAVE
A NEW POWER HITTER THIS SEASON.

I'D SAY SO.
