I'm glad you agreed to meet me out tonight. I had a great time.
Thank you for dinner and the VIP treatment.
You really didn't have to do that.
Oh, sure I did.
First dates always on me.
You can get the next one, yeah? It's still pretty early.
Do you want to come back to my place for a drink?
You know, I should really be getting home.
I told the sitter I wouldn't be out too late.
Too late? The sun's still out.
I'm sorry, Damon. I just don't think I'm quite ready
to be out here doing this just yet.
I-I-I get it. These things take time.
But you have my number if you change your mind.
I do.
Well, it was nice to meet you, Quinn.
-You too. Oh, yes. -[train chugging]
Goodbye.
Hey. Yeah, I'm about to head home.
Do you guys need anything?
Liam giving you any trouble?
Yeah, we finished early.
No, it's fine.
-[woman 1] No! No! -[man 1] Get in! Get in!
-No! -I said, get in!
[tense music]
-[Quinn] Police, stop! -[door thudding]
-[Quinn grunts] -Hands behind your head! NYPD!
Who are you?! What the hell do you think you're doing?!
-[woman 1] Help! -Nate!
[man 1] Yo, man. You good?
[indistinct chatter]
[female anchor]"Gray Legacy" star, Nate Hunter
has announced he is not pressing charges
against Detective Quinn Walker of the NYPD.
The off duty detective who forcefully
tackled the beloved star to the ground
and drew her weapon on the set of Hunter's latest indie movie
shooting in downtown Brooklyn last month.
But the Internet is still having a field day
with video of the debacle,
earning Detective Quinn Walker every nickname
from Wonder Woman Walker to Quick Fire Quinn.
Say what you will about her, but I say not all heroes
wear capes, some wear cocktail dresses.
Why are you still watching those?
This is a new one.
At least they think you're a superhero.
It's been almost two months.
Don't people have anything better to do?
You shouldn't have attacked a movie star
if you didn't want the attention.
Yeah, well, the film crew shouldn't have
been there without a pro--
And you shouldn't have been there in the first place.
Going on a date and trying to keep it a secret from me.
And now the whole world knows.
Which one?
-You know the rules. -Fine. Apple.
Liam, can you please shut that off?
Mama's had her fill.
And she's not here for that anymore.
[knife clacking]
Thank you.
Now remember, I'm gonna be a little later
picking up from school today.
Now that I'm back at work again.
Big week for both of us.
You ready for robotics orientation?
I told you I'm not gonna do a bar scope this year.
I thought we decided we were.
No, you decided you wanted me to.
Honey, you love robotics.
[cutlery clanking]
Law Enforcement Explorers... starts next month.
And I won't have time for both.
When were you going to tell me that you wanted
to do Explorers?
Uh, I-I just did.
You know you can't do it without my permission, right?
And I don't think it's a good idea.
Why not?
That's how I could start as soon as I turn 13.
You're not 13 yet.
But it would by the time it starts.
And dad isn't here anymore!
[mellow music]
-I just... -[sighs]
You're still young, baby.
Right now, you should really just enjoy being a kid.
You're the only delusional one who thinks I'm a kid.
[bird chirping]
[sighs]
Captain Ellis.
[Captain Ellis] Good morning, Walker.
Ready for your first day back?
-[Quinn]Been ready. -I told IA the same thing.
Carter's looking forward to it too.
-[sighs] -Oh, God...
[Captain Ellis]I can hear that elation
through the phone, but it's for your own good.
Carter's got a squeaky clean record.
Because he has no record or experience.
Wouldn't it be better to partner me
with Davis or Boyd?
I'm sure he's gonna help you stay out of trouble.
[Quinn]What kind of trouble do you think--
Walker, you know as well as I do the politics
of the situation dictate that--
I know. I know.
Carter is in with all the people that you are not.
That we are not.
-Understand? -[Quinn]I understand.
You all ready?
[woman]I just don't even know what to do or say right now.
Yeah, we're in total shock.
I can't believe that Mia is gone.
[Captain Ellis]We've got a new case
that I'm assigning to you and Carter.
Are you on your way into the precinct?
Yeah, I'm just gonna drop Liam at
school and then I'll be right there.
I actually need you to go direct to the crime scene.
Carter's already there.
Some high profile actress was found dead
at the Xavier Hotel this morning.
[unnerving music]
-Mom, it must be... -[Carter]Mia Bailey.
[camera shutter clicking]
[Carter] This is not how I thought I'd meet her.
She's definitely seen better days.
Have you seen her inSheila's Ashes?Did she?
I don't think there was a guy in the Academy
that didn't dream about her after seeing that.
Definition of American beauty.
What a case for your first day back, huh?
And our first as partners.
Can we get some more photographs
on the back wall too, please? Thanks, Snow.
[Carter] You know, I wonder if she's ever
been in anything with your guy.
-My guy? -Yeah.
Well, the one that made you famous. Nate Hunter.
You seem to be getting all the celebrities these days.
Carter.
Oh, if you think I'm giving you a hard time, wait till
the news correspondents get a hold of you.
They're going to bring it up, I guarantee it.
And Public Affairs is going to be
hard pressed to stop them.
Well, I'll deal with it then.
Tell me more about what you're finding on Mia.
Any scandals in the news?
-Breakups, bad reviews? -Mm, everything's positive.
She's the "it" girl. Set to star in the new
movie adaptation,Blind Items.
Blind Items? Best selling book series?
Huge studio deal. Have you not heard of this?
I don't exactly follow the Hollywood news.
Oh, this is way bigger than Hollywood.
It's huge pop culture phenomenon.
Even my niece back home is obsessed with it.
Have you been living under a rock
the past couple of months?
Close. Being a single mom.
I'm sure your son's heard of it.
-He's a teenager, right? -He's not. He's 12.
He's a teenager. What's his name again?
Let's get back to the case, please.
[man on radio]We need to bring in the coroner.
-[camera shutter clicking] -[indistinct chatter]
Forensics covered all of this already.
[Quinn] Can't ever be too thorough.
Do you know if Graves heard from his patrol?
-Do I know who Graves is? -Graves.
Any word from whoever's canvassing the area?
[Graves] Not yet, detective.
Let me know as soon as you hear,
-Okay? -Hopefully...
-we'll have Hendrix on it. -Why is that?
Then we'll know nothing is slipping through the cracks.
I mean, this is a pretty obvious, open and shut
suicide case, don't you agree?
Just making sure we're doing our jobs.
[Carter] I think we've done it.
It's just an all too common Hollywood tale.
Starlet on the rise has demons behind those eyes.
It's always the ones you least expect.
[camera shutter clicking]
Look, I'd love to crack on as soon as you're ready.
I need a signature from Nichols on a report
I promised to present to L.T. by noon.
Pushing the limits of late, are we?
-I know how it is. -I don't actually.
I could never have gotten away with a late report
or not knowing Graves' name.
What? You know, the name of every officer on the force.
-Where is Nichols? -Another crime scene.
Some construction site in Soho? Dead busker.
-[clamoring] [male reporter] Detective Wal...
[male reporter 1] Detective Walker. Any comment...
Detective Walker, do you know
what they've been saying about you?
Do you confirm that the cause of Mia Bailey's death...
-is suicide -Is Quick Fire Quinn really...
the one in charge of the investigation--?
I'm Detective Carter with the NYPD.
One of the lead investigators on this case
and, uh, my partner, Detective Walker and I
think it's too early to make any comments at this time
as we've just started our investigations.
[indistinct chatter]
[Carter] We ask that you respect the sensitivity
in this case as.... continue to develop.
Really can't say anything else at this time.
[unnerving music]
[Carter] Quinn. Quinn.
Let's go.
Thank you. Sorry. Thank you.
-[reporters clamoring] -[Carter] Thank you.
-Well, this is it. -[siren blaring]
-Isn't that Bailey? -Told you?
She's the "it" girl.
[distant siren wailing]
What happened here?
Busker with a gunshot wound to the head. No suspects yet.
Well, you're probably looking for some pincushion
that need to just tip money for another fix.
Probably. No cash or ID on them though.
[Quinn] But they left this.
How do we miss that?
Crumbs, is that what I think it is?
[bag ruffling]
-It's Mootiago. -[unnerving music]
An incredibly exclusive luxury brand.
So either your killer is indeed a wealthy man
of great taste, or buskers make a lot more than I thought.
We're all in the wrong business.
-They start at 50 K a pop. -Seriously?
If it's real, Yeah.
[female reporter]Jason, is there anything
you'd like to say about Mia?
[Jason]Mia Bailey...
was not only one of the most vibrant and talented
actresses of our generation...
but she was also one of my closest friends.
I have no words
to encompass the gravity of this...
-loss. [Quinn] Liam.
-[Jason]Or the heaviness of... -Liam, can you please...
pause that for a minute?
I want to talk to you about something.
If you talk to me about the case,
then I wouldn't have to watch it.
Honey, you know I can't talk about confidential work things.
Why not? I could help. I'm actually good at this stuff.
That's what my web-sleuth friends tell me all the time.
It's not the same thing.
The things we deal with at work are...
[sighs] honestly, they're inappropriate for your age.
-[mocking] -For your age.
You're too young, Liam, blah, blah, blah.
-Proving my point. -We solve real cases, mom.
Like you do. True crime.
I don't know how I feel about
this fascination with the macabre.
I wish you'd try some other hobbies.
I wish you stopped telling what to do.
And it's not the macabre, It's puzzle solving.
And if dad were still here, he'd tell you to shut off
your helicopter and chill out!
[tense music]
I know this past year has not been easy for you.
Or me.
But I'd actually like to talk to you about the case.
You've obviously been seeing a lot about
Mia Bailey on the new.
And I think maybe it's a good time to talk about
what suicide is and how to help.
-I know what suicide is, mom. -And what causes it.
Even people that might not seem--
I don't think Mia was depressed.
That's the point. Even people
that don't seem like they're depr--
You're not listening. I'm not stupid.
I know what suicide is and what depression is
and I don't need you to explain things to me.
I'm telling you, I don't think Mia's death was a suicide.
Why do you think that?
Because of this. This is the latestBlind Item.
Social media page making the rounds.
Gossip To Die For.
Blind Item, like the movie title?
Yeah, it's a book they're making into a movie.
I'm talking about the actual Blind Items.
There are news articles that tell you about rumors,
gossip, secrets, whatever.
Except they don't tell you the actual names
of the people that are in it.
It's fun because we get to guess
who the blind items are about.
-So this article... -Item.
"Item." Okay. "An on-the-rise actress who has
just been attached the film adaptations of one
of the biggest best selling book series of this decade
is... is going to take her own life in the place...
where her career began."
And someone commented that Mia always said in interviews
that her first meeting for her first role...
-was at the Xavier Hotel. -When did this come out?
That's the reason why it's getting sent around so much.
This post came out two days ago,
-and Mia was only found-- -Today.
At the Xavier Hotel.
[Liam] She was on the live talk show yesterday and everything.
That doesn't necessarily mean anything, baby.
I mean, she could have written this herself.
This is a new site, right?
Yeah, but why would she do that?
I know it's hard to understand, baby.
No, I'm saying it's weird because that's what
the book was about too.
A blind item site that predicted things
before they happened.
Okay.
Enough of your conspiracy theories for the day.
They're not just mine. Everyone on
Gossip To Die For is talking about it.
[Quinn]Gossip To Die For.
I think you should check it out.
Something about it gives me the creeps. Mm-hmm. Okay.
Thank you. See you tomorrow.
[phone beeping]
[unnerving music]
"Anna Moore, author of theBlind Itemsbook series."
[crickets chirping]
Wonder Woman Walker.
She's been waiting to meet with you.
[indistinct chatter]
[Quinn] Thank you for waiting this morning.
-Please call me Anna. -Anna.
How did you know Ms. Bailey?
We were friends. Her old friends.
-Sorry for your loss. -Thank you. Um...
I'm here because...
I've been hearing in the news that you think Mia committed
suicide and, and I think she was murdered.
And what gives you that impression?
I was with her that night.
The night that she, um...
We had dinner at Luca's in Soho,
We were celebrating our movie. The start of our movie.
She was starring in the film they're making of my book.
-Just the two of you? -Yeah.
Here's a video we took that night. Um...
-[both laughing] -[Anna] Honestly, she...
she was the happiest I'd ever seen her.
Which is saying a lot, because Mia's baseline
is always very happy.
-[both whooping] -We miss you.
-[indistinct chatter] -Congratulations!
I hate to say this, Ms. Moore,
but this is hardly proof of anything.
This doesn't mean that Mia, Ms. Bailey
wasn't secretly battling--
I knew Mia, okay?
[somber music]
I know she didn't do this.
She dreamed her whole life of getting
to where she finally was,
and it was all actually happening.
She also sent me this later that night after I got home.
[Mia]Anna! Oh, my gosh.
You're never gonna guess who I just heard from.
It's got to be some sort of sign from the universe.
That is all happening for the right reasons.
I'm telling you. 1-4-1 crew forever, baby!
Come get drinks with me and our surprise guests
because you're never gonna believe who it is.
Call me and I'll tell you where we end up. Muah.
What time did you get that?
She sent it just before midnight.
I was already asleep, so I didn't listen to it until
yesterday morning, right bef...
Right before I heard the news.
Do you know who it is Ms. Bailey was talking about?
Did I hear her correctly? The 1-4-1 crew?
Yeah, um...
It's a silly name we used to call the old friend family
from when we all first moved to New York. Um...
Big a hodgepodge of artists, actors, writers, performers,
people who didn't have a creative bone
in their body but who loved the scene.
Everybody who moved to New York. You know, to try and make it.
We'd throw these giant parties at our shabby chic
Hamilton Heights apartment on 141st Street.
Seriously, had to be at least 100 people there every time.
Total fire hazard. And we were called
that whole friend group, the 1-4-1 crew.
So Mia saying she heard from someone
and alluding to the 1-4-1 crew...
-[clicking tongue] -Could've been anyone.
[unnerving music]
-Thanks for coming, Ms. Moore. -Yeah.
Call us if you hear anything else.
And if you've any new thoughts on who
Mia might have met with that night, please let us know.
I will.
I don't want to say anything before, but I recognize
you from that video with the film crew.
Right.
-I can assure you-- -No, I thought you...
I thought you did the right thing.
What the press did to you by blowing that up was...
-was unfair. -[sighing]
And I don't know how to explain it, but I'm...
I'm glad you're on Mia's case.
I know I can trust you to find the truth.
I know you'll find who did this.
[indistinct chatter]
[somber music]
Sounds like you've got a new fan.
Any word from Herrera's team on
who's behind the Gossip To Die For website?
Ah, funny thing about that, they're still working on it.
I heard the word untraceable being tossed about
a couple of times, but they said
that's not entirely unexpected.
Online anonymity is almost commonplace nowadays.
Well, tell them to keep trying.
[desk phone ringing]
Mom, can you check this for me, please?
I wasn't sure the probability for green is correct.
Let's see.
Who's that girl with Mia?
I was just doing some research.
Yeah, looks like 1/7 is correct.
-She's dripping. -Oh?
Mootiago.
Hold up, you never know anything about actual brands.
-[scoffs] -[suspenseful mellow music]
-[line ringing] -[cellphone buzzing]
Howdy, partner.
Quinn?
The video that Anna Moore gave us,
Mia is wearing a Mootiago watch
that looks just like the one Nichols recovered
at his crime scene in Soho.
That's not surprising.
She was able to afford it.
But we didn't recover it at our scene.
[Carter]That doesn't mean anything.
It does. Everything else is accounted for in the video
in the hotel room.
Dress, purse, necklace.
I think Anna might be on to something
by suspecting foul play.
Look, just because she buttered you up doesn't mean
you need to complicate what isn't obvious.
Sad, yes, but obvious and simple case.
Quinn?
[unnerving music]
[bags ruffling]
[line ringing]
[automated voice]You've reached the Mootiago desk.
Please leave a message and a representative...
-will get back to you. -[phone line beeping]
Hello, this is Detective Quinn Walker with the NYPD.
I'm investigating a case and wanted to know
if you keep a comprehensive record of what just sold?
[tense music]
[indistinct chatter]
[dramatic sting]
[laughing]
-Where are you headed? -I'll be back.
[line ringing]
[man 1]Jason Cohen's office.
Hi, My name is Quinn Walker
with the New York Police Department.
Is Jason Cohen available?
[man 1]Hold for one moment, please.
[indistinct chatter]
-[Jason]This is Jason. -Hi.
This is Detective Quinn Walker
with the New York Police Department.
I understand Mia Bailey was one of your clients,
and I'd like to ask you some questions
about her if you're available.
I'm on my way to your office.
Probably be there in about half an hour.
[Jason]Of course. See you then.
Tell Audra at the front desk
to let you up to the 15th floor.
[Quinn] Great. I'll see you soon. Thank you.
[unnerving music]
[brakes squeaking]
[music intensifies]
-[tires screeching] -[thudding]
[engine revving]
Jason Cohen's office, fifteenth floor?
-[cellphone buzzing] -Carter?
[Carter]Are you looking more into the Bailey case?
-I am. -[Carter]I told you...
-it's a dead end. You don't-- -I need to talk to...
Bailey's manager and then you try to talk me out of it.
So I'm going without you.
[Carter]I knew it.
You didn't have to have me followed.
-[Carter]What?! -I spotted the tail.
-[Carter]Tail? -Don't play ignorant with me.
I'll record everything and I'll call you when I'm done.
[Carter]Uh, Quinn! Wait...
[Quinn] So you, Mia and Anna met at the same time?
[Jason] Just about.
And then I'm in on a writers group and Mia was one of
the actress who came in to read at one of our meetings.
[Quinn] And how long ago was that?
Gosh, uh...
Maybe, uh, 12 years ago.
-So this photo... -[Jason] Yes?
I saw this for the first time when it was posted
online yesterday.
Didn't even know it existed.
[Quinn] Can you tell me who those two people are?
[Jason] This is Ozzie. Lost track of him years ago.
And, uh, this is Shiloh.
Shiloh Johnson, the quiet one of the bunch.
Once upon a time we were all thick as thieves.
We all had aspirations of making names for ourselves
and the Big Apple.
Well, all of us, except Shiloh,
who I always thought of was more of Anna's shadow.
Went everywhere she went.
Anyway, our careers all started to finally take off.
And then Ozzie suddenly got really into the whole new age
spiritual lifestyle, shamanism, healing ceremonies.
Totally a shift 'cause he was actually ex-military.
And what was his last name?
I might have heard it once,
but we always just called him Ozzie.
Not sure what that was even short for.
After he went all spiritual, he just disappeared.
Totally off grid.
No phone, no way to reach him.
He's probably out there somewhere...
Doing healing ceremonies in the middle of nowhere.
Is if he is still alive.
-Pardon? -Kidding.
I'm sure he's fine.
And what about Shiloh?
Shiloh really wasn't one to like attention.
So even when the gang all got back together
for my wedding last year...
Well, all of us except Ozzie, who we'll probably
never hear from again.
Shiloh dodged every single picture.
To be honest, I think this might be the only
photo I've ever seen.
So it's just you, Mia, and Anna...
-that stayed close. -From this little group?
Yes.
-Our 1-4-1 crew. -[chuckles]
-What is that? -[Jason] For a short stint...
we all lived together in a cheap apartment in the Heights.
Our friends called us the 1-4-1 crew.
Just the five of you?
Our whole friend group kind of went by that name,
but, uh, we were the OG crew, if that makes sense.
That's why Mia, Anna, and I, we're all so excited to finally
be working together on theBlind Itemsmovie.
When the studio pulled the plug on it...
It was a blessing in disguise because it freed Mia up
to take on a much bigger project.
Hold on, are you saying the studio pulled the plug
onBlind Items?
-Anna never mentioned. -Uh, she didn't know.
Doesn't know.
It was all inside information not yet announced
It's probably best that she'll never find out.
She was going to be devastated.
Better for her to think that the film is shelved
now due to Mia's passing.
[tense music]
I don't think it's really hit me yet that, uh...
That she's gone.
Hypothetical question, if Mia would have said to you
that someone from the 1-4-1 crew reached out to her,
would you have thought she meant one of the five of you?
Or someone from the larger friend gang?
One of the five of us, for sure.
[indistinct chatter]
Detective Walker? What are you doing here?
Are you...? You're asking about me, aren't you?
-I was, yes. -Thank you.
Thank you so much for believing me.
Just doing the job. We haven't concluded anything yet.
Still. I mean... Thank you.
One quick question.
Why didn't you mention Shiloh or Ozzie to me before?
What do you mean?
When I asked you who Mia might have
been referring to meeting up with that night?
I...
I just can't imagine that, um... I'm sorry.
I should have said something. I just don't think that...
either of them would ever have hurt her.
There's no way.
-Well, you have my number right? -Yes.
Call me if you can think of anything.
I will. And thank you so much for looking into Mia's case.
Thank you. I knew I could count on you. Thank you.
[Carter's voice mail]This is Carter. You know what to do.
-[Carter]Leave a message. -[beeping]
Carter, call me back as soon as you can.
I got more than I bargained for with Bailey's
manager Jason Cohen.
He gave us a lot of history that we need...
-[tires screeching] -[Quinn yelping]
[dramatic music]
-[Quinn whimpering] -No.
[muffled yelping]
-Why hello. -Detective Quinn Walker.
Listen to me very carefully. We don't have much time.
But what the hell do you think you're doing?! Stop!
Interfering where you shouldn't.
-Or.. -There will be consequences.
-[crying] -Understand?
Why, hello, Detective Quinn Walker.
[Mia]Listen to me very carefully.
We don't have much time.
[woman]But what the hell do you think you're doing?! Stop!
[Mia]And if you're in a where you shouldn't be...
[female anchor]There will be consequences.
-Understand? -[music intensifies]
-[tires screeching] -[door rattling]
-[thudding] -[tires screeching]
[phone ringing]
-Has anyone seen Carter? -Not since before lunch.
[tense music]
Where were you? You're not going to answer me?
You refuse to tell me the same thing.
Walker. Carter. My office. Now.
I called it in to dispatch. They're canvassing the area.
No leads have been located yet.
And this is exactly why you shouldn't be going anywhere
alone or conducting any interviews
without your partner present!
This was an impromptu and time sensitive thing.
I told Carter where I was going.
-After you already left. -I called him immediately...
after the interview and repeatedly got his voicemail.
And then that's when it happened.
-And you're not injured? -No.
-You've been to see medical. -I told you, I'm not injured.
I'm fine. Called Liam's school.
He's safe and-and Hendricks is checking in on him too.
There are so many reasons why this should not have happened.
-I understand. -[sighs]
I understand too.
Look, Walker, I don't wanna discount
what's just happened to you.
But I do wonder if this is less of a threat and more of a...
What's the word I'm looking for?
-[Captain Ellis] A-a... -Prank?
Oh, hell no. Are you for real?
-Did you really just say that?! -Okay, I didn't mean...
Walker! Ease up!
As a matter of fact, that was the word I was looking for.
-Or something similar. -I'm sorry--
It just seems that a prank is a possibility,
given that they showed you a video?
And it was a-a van kidnapping just like the incident was.
I'm not saying we're not gonna keep looking into it.
But I have to be honest here and suggest other possibilities.
Carter's been updating me on what you've been up to
with the Mia Bailey case.
I need to ask you to stop wasting time on things Carter
doesn't also agree to.
You are a team on this.
And Carter is the lead investigator in charge.
So I've asked him to report back to me.
Should you continue to do things outside of protocol.
[tense music]
[indistinct chatter]
I'd like to go with a follow up on Ramirez
when you have a chance.
The sooner we can present to the DA, the faster--
I need you to understand something, Carter.
I have worked really hard to get where I am.
Four years patrol and five years in robbery
before getting into homicide.
-It's the usual time. -The usual?
How long did it take you?
And how many women do you see in this department?
I have always been told by my TO the LT
and the DA's office that my reports were the best they got.
So how come it took me longer to get promoted than
any of the guys I started on patrol with?
And yet here you are, two years in lesser crimes,
trying to tell me how to do my job.
I'm not trying to argue with you.
I-I-I have no reasons for being here too. I...
I'm just doing what the boss says,
and I want everyone to be happy.
Our job isn't about making everyone happy!
It's about doing the right thing,
leaving no rock unturned until we find the truth.
And sometimes straddling celebrities during viral videos.
-[chuckles] -[exhales sharply]
I don't care what posh British school you went to
or all the friends that you have in high places.
I am not about to let some arrogant rookie
with half my experience tell me what to do.
I'm sorry, I... It was a bad joke. I...
If you don't want to pursue this case, that is fine,
but you're sure as hell not gonna stop me from doing it.
[tense music]
[distant siren wailing]
[vehicles honking]
[Quinn] Oh, thank goodness you're okay.
When Officer Hendrick showed up,
I was worried something happened to you.
No, don't be worried about me.
He was just a lot closer, that's all.
I just wanted to make sure that you were safe until I got here.
Well, so you're not gonna tell me why he's here
or why you're signing me out early?
-It's just, I... -[phone buzzing]
-[sighs] -One second. Sorry.
-This is Walker. -[woman 1]Hello.
[Lana]This is Lana calling from Mootiago.
Hello. Yes, thank you.
Um, I had a question about a watch
that we were covered in one of our investigations.
Is there a way to tell me who purchased it?
[Lana]Absolutely. As long as it is authentic.
Our watches are sold exclusively by us.
And Mootiago watch has a unique serial number.
[Lana]Do you know the number for yours?
I don't have it with me.
[Lana]The number can be found inside
the back of the watch case. It might be hard
to find if you don't know where to look.
I'll check it out and get the numbers to you right away.
[Lana]We'll keep an eye out for it.
Have a remarkable day.
[phone beeping]
-Shoot. -What's wrong?
I need to check something in evidence,
but I can't tell anyone else to do it.
Then drop me off at home and then go.
-No, no,. -I-'ll-I'll be fine.
I'm not going to leave you alone while--
While what?
[sighs]
I just need a minute. Just wait for me at my desk.
Ah, so this is your and Terron's young man.
He is indeed.
-You knew my dad? -Of course.
-Hey, is he a boot? -To you he's Officer Ryan.
Yeah, but he reports to the TO, right?
Or is it the sergeant?
And how does it work when someone
is wounded or something, do the boots take over?
Liam, let's talk about this another time.
Or you can just send me to Law Enforcement Explorers
just like dad promised.
And I can learn things for myself.
Not now, Liam. I have to go and take care of something
with another department.
The watch from evidence.
Stay at my desk.
Do your homework.
Do not move from here.
You understand?
[unnerving music]
[bag ruffling]
[camera shutter clicking]
[Carter] Presented to the filing DA.
And make sure we have it as airtight a case as possible.
Helps a lot to have the actual murder weapon
to link to the crime scene, potentially the suspect.
What are you doing?
Oh, just showing Liam what a normal day for us is like.
Can I talk to you real quick?
-Sure. -Can you?
[indistinct chatter]
You have no business talking murder weapons with my son.
-But Liam was just asking me. -I don't care what he asks you.
He's too young. Our work is not appropriate for kids.
Look, I know you don't like me very much, and I know you also
seem to think I don't belong here.
But even though I didn't know...
-Terron very well-- -Don't.
I know what you and Liam are going through.
You know, do you?
I also know you aren't helping him by babying him so much.
He's not as young as you think.
-[tense music] -Listen, Carter...
we might have to partner together at work,
but my family is my business.
Respectfully, please stay away from my son.
[cellphone beeping]
-This is Walker. -[Lana]Hello.
[Lana]This is Lana from Mootiago returning your call.
Yes. Hi, Lana.
[Lana]The watch with the serial number
you sent was purchased by a Jason Cohen.
-Jason Cohen? Thank you. -[Lana]Yes.
[Lana]Is there anything else I can help you with?
Not at the moment, thank you.
[Lana]Have a remarkable day.
That is the Mootiago watch Mia was wearing
in the video you're watching, right?
-Maybe. -[unnerving music]
But if Jason purchased the watch that Mia was wearing,
then what was it doing with the busker?
-What's a busker? -Oh, a street musician.
Like the guy we saw on the subway station
that we gave money to.
-Hey, how does pizza sound? -Pepperoni please.
You got it. I'll call it in in an hour.
[unnerving music]
[cellphone beeping]
You have to understand it's not uncommon at all
for managers to oversee their clients finances.
I managed the finances for several of my clients.
Some of my friends finances too.
[Quinn]We'll need to review the transactions relating to Mia.
-[sighs] -Of course.
[Jason]If anything you need.
Are you available tomorrow morning?
My partner and I would like to do a follow up.
I wasn't planning on going to the office tomorrow.
Would you want to come by my apartment instead?
-9:00 a.m. work for you? -I'll text you the address.
We'll see you then.
[cellphone beeping]
[eerie music]
It's me.
We might have a problem.
[vehicles honking]
[knocking]
[birds chirping]
What are you doing here?
Well, I figured we could go together to the managers.
Did you hear me yesterday? I told you that I don't want
to be bringing any of this around Liam.
I'll meet you at Cohen's right after I drop him off.
[Liam] Mom!
-Oh, hey, Detective Carter. -Hey, mate.
Uh, you both have to see this.
-[beeping] -[ominous music]
[Quinn] I need all units in the area
sent to 2-2-2-3 West 14th Street off of 7th Avenue.
We have a possible 10-10 Frank. Maybe 10-10 Sam.
-Hopefully not 10-10 Young. -[siren blaring]
[tense music]
[weapon clicking]
[music intensifies]
[ominous music]
[male news anchor]We're outside the Chelsea home
of talent manager Jason Cohen, who we can
confirm has been found dead.
Police have not released further detail,
but there is a lot of speculation and buzz
around the situation as Jason Cohen was not only
Mia Bailey's manager, but it seems there may
have been a prediction about his death
on a new mysterious social media page
making the rounds, Gossip To Die For.
Shot several times. Semi-automatic weapon.
What a mess.
No signs of struggle beforehand.
-He didn't see it coming. -Or he knew his attacker.
We're now dealing with an extremely high profile case.
So... the state police will be assigning
their own team to work with you on this.
We need to get a handle on things before
they get out of control.
We're canvassing the area.
I've also set a team to find the source
of the Gossip To Die For Blind Itemsposter.
We need the medical examiner to confirm his time of death.
But... it looks like it was posted before Jason was killed.
Yeah. I heard a reporter say that outside.
[camera shutter clicking]
The press are going to drag us through the mud on this.
Carter... I want you to be the one
to work with Public Affairs and make a press statement.
The last thing we need is for Walker, with her recent
notoriety becoming the media phase of the investigation.
[reporter clamoring]
[reporter 1] Detective. Detective, What's the latest?
What's the comment?
Let us know what's going on, Detective.
-Shh, shh, shh. -We need to know.
-What's going on in there? -Shh... Good morning.
While we are unable to release any
further details at this time, we can confirm that Jason Cohen...
[man 1] This is on you. Jason didn't have to die.
[Carter] ...resulting from multiple gunshot wounds.
Out of respect for his family we ask that you please respect...
[tense music]
[dramatic music]
Stop! NYPD!
[thuds]
-Are you okay? -[panting]
[man 1] You all right?
[knocking on door]
[door opens]
Detective Walker.
I need you to tell me about Ozzie.
-Ozzie? -I think I might have just...
had an encounter with him.
[door closes]
You're saying Ozzie is the leading suspect
in these murders?
I'm sorry, I know this is a lot.
It doesn't seem real, you know? First Mia, then Jason--
I know you don't think
one of your old friends could do this,
but we've got to look into everythingthat we can.
[inhales]
Ozzie's real name is Duncan Aguilar.
He got the nickname "Ozzie" while he was in the military
because of our hometown Osgood, Indiana, same...
-hometown as Shiloh and me. -[phone buzzes]
We more or less grew up together.
I'm sorry, Anna. I've just got to take this.
[phone buzzes]
[phone beeps]
Hey. I need you to run two names for me,
see if you can find addresses or whereabouts.
The first is Duncan Aguilar, went by Ozzie.
Also run a check for a Shiloh Johnson.
Let me know as soon as you get any results.
Thanks, Ryan.
-Sorry about that. -Don't be.
So Ozzie... Duncan, he was in the military.
Yeah, um, it was brief. He didn't talk about it much.
I'm sure that's why he ended up disappearing
and taking this new spiritual turn,
he needed a new start.
That was a couple years ago, right?
What about in between Osgood, Indiana and then?
Yeah, like I said, Ozzie, Shiloh, and I
all grew up together in Osgood, Indiana.
Ozzie was a little older than us,
so he got back from the military
right when Shiloh and I were finishing up high school,
planning our move to New York, so he came along.
We wanted to go together.
-Pursue the dream, you know. -Which was...?
For me, I knew I just wanted to make something of myself.
And Shiloh?
Shiloh...
had some...
Shiloh just really needed to ge... just needed to get away.
-Sorry. -[sniffles]
It's just hard to talk about Shiloh now.
Why is that?
[sniffles] I love Shiloh, you know?
I don't wanna say anything...
negative about her.
[sniffles] Because I don't want anything to...
I know how you feel.
But maybe...
Maybe you're not doing anyone any favors by protecting her.
[Quinn sighs sharply] My, uh...
My late husband Terron was
one of the most loved officers on the force.
He was everyone's friend.
Handsome, charming, intelligent.
Good father to Liam, as far as Liam knew.
Terron always made me be the bad guy with Liam,
while he got to be the fun, no rules favorite.
But to me, he was a different man.
Infidelity aside, whenever we were alone he was
verbally and emotionally abusive.
He was worried Liam was showing tendencies he didn't like,
and he blamed me.
I also think it was hard that we were both on the force.
He had to show me that he held the power.
I was trying to figure out a way to leave Terron
while still protecting Liam and...
not turning his world or his image of his father upside-down
but then...
well...
I never got the chance.
[Quinn sighs]
That's the first time I've ever said that out loud.
I never could before.
Everyone in my life knew him, you know?
Or have their impressions of who he was.
I'm sorry you've been carrying that.
Point is...
I want you to know I understand
what it's like to love someone,
and not be able to say anything that might
not be met with the same understanding
that those who love them have.
I can tell that you're carrying something heavy.
[inhales]
You let me share my heavy secret with you.
Let me share the weight of yours.
[phone buzzes]
-[phone beeps] -[Quinn] This is Walker.
[Officer Ryan]We've found the whereabouts
of your Duncan Aguilar.
He's changed his name to Gavin Alo.
And he runs a retreat called Enlightened Souls.
What's the location?
[Officer Ryan]Enlightened Souls is located at
111 White Astor Lane, Willsboro, New York.
-[Quinn]Thank you, Ryan. -No problem, Detective Walker.
Ray, what was that call about?
They're calling them the "Blind Item Murders" now.
It's all anyone can talk about.
Well, we can talk about something else.
[Liam sighs] I don't want to.
All my web-sleuth friends know who you are
and know that you're working on the case.
What about your school friends?
They're wondering what's going on too.
[Quinn] Well, that's not very fair on you.
Can't you tell me anything?
Well, I can tell you that
if you don't eat all your broccoli,
you can forget about the ice cream I got you for dessert.
[mocks Liam]
[grand music on tablet]
Hey, come here.
"A new age spiritual guide is going to be murdered
in his own place of practice."
What?!
[phone buzzes]
Have you seen this latest Blind Item's post?
Yeah, it can only mean one person.
[crystal bowl ring resonating]
May we continue to be guided by higher power
and inner wisdom,
and may we continue to honor the divine within us all.
May you all shine your beautiful, radiant light,
and I will see you all next time.
[door opens]
[door creaks]
[tense music]
[Quinn] Liam's bedtime is 10 p.m.,
if he's not up by 6:30 a.m. I usually go in and wake him.
-I remember, Mrs. Walker. -This is unnecessary, mom.
I don't need a babysitter.
Grayden is a whole year younger than me
and his mom's been letting him stay home alone for years.
He does cereal, toast, and fruit in the morning.
And please help yourself to
anything that's in the kitchen too.
Don't try me, kid. I am not leaving you alone.
Then take me with you. I know
more about this case than you do, you
even didn't know about the Mootiago watch if I didn't
point it out for you in the video, and I was the one
who showed you theBlindItems site.
You didn't even know what a Blind Item was!
You have both my numbers, so does Liam.
Call me if you need anything.
Why are you always trying to hold me back?
Liam, this isn't a game. These people are dangerous.
You don't think I know that?
Did you forget that dad died on the job?
How could I forget when you bring him up every day.
-He would have let me-- -Well I'm not your father!
No shit! He actually cared about me and my future.
-You think that I don't?! -I know you don't!
I wish he was here instead of you!!
[Liam's door slams]
-I'm so sorry, Renee. -[Renee] It's okay, Mrs. Walker.
-I know he doesn't mean it. -I think he does.
[sighs]
[door opens]
[door closes]
What do you think you're doing?
-Oh, not you too. -Not me too what?
We're supposed to be working on this together.
I had to hear fromdispatch
that you've been doing interviews without me?
Someone has to do them, okay?
I may be a shit mother, but I do know how to do my job.
Oh, don't take out your problems with your son on me.
Oh, you think that's what's going on?
If the shoe fits.
The only problem I have is with you.
So just get out of my way.
-No. -Excuse me?
No. Now, you might think that just
because you've been doing this a little longer than me...
-A little? -that you don't need to...
respect me, well, I also worked really hard to get where I am.
-Yeah, right. -And the captain mademe...
lead investigator on this, and I'm not gonna let you bully me
just because things aren't going all the way you want them too.
Because I'm the woman who straddled a celebrity, right?
-I didn't mean that-- Quinn! -Just leave, Carter!
-I know where you're going. -Great.
So if you decide to actually do your job,
I'll see you there.
[sighs]
[line ringing]
She's on the move.
Mm.
[gate opens]
[gate clanks shut]
-[sighs] -Is everything all right?
No. But there's nothing to be done now.
We need to find Ozzie.
[engine revving]
[sighs]
I feel so much better, thank you.
I didn't realize how bad I had to go.
You sure we have time?
Just a quick stop, you should probably eat something.
[Anna sighs]
You doing okay?
It still kind of feels like a bad dream, you know?
One second I couldn't be happier making
something so huge with my best friends,
and then, and then the next minute, um...
-We're here. -Exactly.
I was thinking about what you said about your husband.
-Oh, sorry about that. -Don't be, um...
I can't imagine how hard it is for you,
especially with your son.
-Well, he just hates me, so. -I'm sure that's not true.
I'm not.
And now with all this...
press stuff about this case, I just...
[sighs]
I shouldn't be saying this,
but I need to get this right, you know?
I used to know, really know,
that I was a good cop.
A great cop. And a great mother.
And now suddenly I'm making the department look bad
and am an inappropriately dressed set crasher
who has no business leading an investigation.
I can't seem to do anything but
upset and suppress Liam nowadays, so...
I need to solve this.
I didn't tell you the whole story
about me, Shiloh, and Ozzie.
Shiloh and I were best friends since childhood.
And we supported each other through everything,
and I tried to help her as much as I could.
Her father was abusive, and it got
really bad in our teenage years.
I'd never seen Shiloh like that.
She was always so...
passive, submissive.
And then one day she just snapped.
Her father came home drunk and angry
and looking to hurt her as he always did,
she just grabbed one of Ozzie's guns, shot him dead.
The thing is, he deserved it.
Everyone knew he was gonna kill her eventually.
It was gonna be him or her.
And we knew there was gonna be consequences,
and we were all scared, so...
that's when Shiloh decided to fake her death
and make it look like a house fire,
took both her and her father.
And that's when she started going by Johnson.
Her real last name is Turner.
I couldn't leave Shiloh stranded and alone
in her biggest time of need.
So that's when Ozzie and I decided to help her
run away to New York.
And Shiloh was presumed dead?
[restaurant door opens]
Does anyone know about this besides you and Ozzie?
I feel like it's my fault.
-[Anna sniffling] -Because...
I stupidly drunkenly...
-[sobbing] -said something...
that alluded to Shiloh's faked death
at our Ham Heights apartment in front of Mia Jason.
-[Anna continues sobbing] -But that was years ago.
Like, why would she suddenly care now? Like, why now?
-The photo. -What photo?
The one of all of you that came out after Mia's death.
Jason told me that he'd never seen a photo of Shiloh before,
he didn't even know it existed till it was published.
Maybe...
maybe this was the first time Shiloh has been seen since...
Would Shiloh have it in her to kill everyone
who knew her real name?
[notification on tab chimes]
-[phone beeps] -[line ringing]
[Carter]Hey, mate, you all right?
[suspenseful music]
[car door opening]
[door opens]
-Freeze! -[dramatic music]
[groans]
-[tires screeching] -[engine revving]
[gun firing]
[sharply sighs]
[Anna sobbing]
Shit!
-Shit! -[Anna continues crying]
-[dialing tone] -[continues sobbing]
[sighs]
[indistinct chattering]
-Thanks, officer. -Yeah.
-[sighs] -[phone beeping]
Yeah, there's no service here.
They said they had some luck closer to the road.
I'm gonna try that. I'll be right back.
[door opens]
-[phone beeps] -Finally. Okay.
-[line ringing] -[Ryan]This is dispatch.
This is Walker. I need you to send out
any available teams to try and locate Shiloh Johnson.
Do we have an address for her yet?
[message tone chiming]
I need to call you back.
[line ringing]
[voice message]Your call has been forwarded to...
[line ringing]
-[Renee]Hi, Mrs. Walker. -Renee.
I'm trying to call Liam but he's not answering his phone.
Can... can you put him on the line?
[Renee]I'm not with him.
What do you mean you're not with him?
[Renee]Your friend came over to take over watching him.
The one you told to come.
I didn't tell anyone to come over, Renee. What friend?
[Renee]I'm sorry, Mrs. Walker. He said you okayed it.
Your work partner, Carter.
[line ringing]
[Carter]This is Carter. You know what to do.
-[Carter]Leave a message... -We need to hurry back!
-[dial tone beeping] -Liam's in danger.
-[engine revving] -[tires screeching]
[keyboard keys clicking]
-[notification tone chimes] -[Liam gasps]
Carter!
Carter, you've got to see this!
Carter?
-[screams] -[Liam panting]
[suspenseful music]
[Liam panting]
[Carter] Come on.
-Hey, come on. -Yeah.
[Liam panting]
[clanking at distance]
Liam, is there any place you can hide?
-I don't know-- -A closet, something.
-[Liam panting] -Right there by the piano.
For sure, sure, sure.
[closet door opens]
Good lad, go, go.
[door closes]
[Liam panting continues]
-[gun shot] -[Liam gasps]
-[Carter thuds] -[Liam panting rapidly]
[suspenseful music]
-[door opens] -[Liam screams]
[faded siren wailing]
[faded cop radio static]
-[door opens] -[pensive music]
[Captain Ellis]Carter was found unconscious with
a gunshot wound to the chest.
He's in critical condition.
And Liam is missing.
We've issued an APB for Liam.
[dramatic music crescendos]
-[indistinct chatter] -Oh, Sharif.
Could you please take care of that...
-We can. -[Captain Ellis] Thank you.
[door closes]
All signs pointed to it.
And I thought Carter was somehow...
And instead he might die from trying to protect my son.
No, he was foolish in trying to protect you too.
Not wanting to let anyone know that you broke protocol,
again,he worried that Liam might be getting
up to something he shouldn't be.
It looks like Liam's abductor posed as a fellow
Gossip To Die For enthusiast,
and got just enough info out of him
to realize he was your son.
Carter notified us a little too late.
-Hey, stop! -I have to do something.
You have to take a moment.
We've got our whole team out there
doing everything they can.
Right now, you need to be right where you are.
I used to be just like you, you know.
Quick to assume I knew everything about a person
the moment I met them.
Then writing them off as just that.
You wrote Carter off as a self-serving, uncaring,
everything-handed-to-him- on-a-silver-platter boy,
but the truth is he had a soft spot
for Liam because he too lost his father at a young age.
Killed while on a business trip out here.
Never bothered to learn that about him, did ya?
His father's murder is what motivated him
to move out here from London and work in homicide.
It's a cold case, but he's far from given up on it.
His whole life here is motivated
by finding his father's killer.
Nothing cavalier about that.
The younger version of me
would have wrote you off too as cold and...
uptight.
But the years have made me wiser.
And I know that that's just how you protect yourself
and your family in this uniquely
difficult situation you're in.
Take your husband, Terron, for example.
Everyone saw him at face value,
the perfect, heroic,
charming and generous hero.
But I knew better.
I never said anything to you, but I know he had a dark side.
And I know you felt isolated in seeing it.
How did you...?
[Captain Ellis] When you've been around as long as I have,
you realize you can't take people at surface value,
there's always more swimming underneath what you first see.
Both good and bad.
-[door opens] -[door creaks]
Sorry to interrupt, but, um...
there's a new Blind Item's posted.
It's about, it's about me.
[male anchor]The lead detective in the Blind Item murders
has been critically injured.
Sources tell us the prime suspect is a woman
who isn't even supposed to exist.
Shiloh Johnson, previously Shiloh Turner of Osgood,
Indiana, has apparently been on the run
since murdering her father and faking her
own death to try and get away with it.
We've got a caller saying they think they spotted her
in the subway station this morning.
Find out which one and get the caller's info.
[female anchor 1]Another posting has been made
on the mysterious Gossip To Die For site
where all the Blind Item murders have been predicted.
Users speculate it's about Anna Moore,
the author behind the popular Blind Items book series.
Authorities confirmed that she is under their protection,
and her safety is a top priority.
Unusually, this post appears to be a ransom note of sorts,
referring to the child of a celebrity detective.
Could that detective be Quinn Walker?
The NYPD detective involved...
Turn that down now.
The posting makes it very clear
that we are to be at Shiloh's last known place of residence,
thank you, Greene, for finding that address for us,
at noon in order to trade Ms. Moore for Liam.
Still no luck on that IP address?
It also says that I'm to be the only one
present for the exchange, or...
or my son will be killed.
[clamoring]
-[officer] You need to get back. -[indistinct chatter]
[officer on radio]Moving into position. I need something.
-[officer 1]Crowd patrol... -I'm going in first.
-And solo. -Walker--
This is my son, my case and my partner.
I'll hold off as long as I can. But if there's any escalation--
There won't be. Please, captain, we can't jeopardize my son.
I still don't think it's safe having Anna here.
We have to keep appearances of compliance in case Shiloh is,
or has someone watching.
Promise me you won't send anyone in.
Nothing that can compromise Liam.
He's all that matters.
-[dramatic music] -[gun clicks]
[music continues]
-Liam! -[Liam] Mom!
-[Quinn gasps] -[both breathing heavily]
You don't wanna do this, Shiloh.
Where's Anna?
Let my son go, and we can talk this out.
I wanna know where Anna is.
My son has got nothing to do with this. Please.
Just give him to me. I'll give you whatever you want.
Tell me why you're coming after me.
You can't murder people and expect to get away with it.
You can't kidnap innocent kids.
-What?! No! -[both grunting]
-[thuds] -Liam!
[Liam] Mom!
[grunting]
-[door slams open] -Liam! Liam!
Are you okay? Okay.
[door opens]
-[Quinn grunts] -Go! Run!
-[Quinn screams] -[thuds]
-Captain? -Not yet.
-But-- -I said not yet.
-Whoa, whoa. Stop her! -Hey, hey!
-[Captain Ellis] Stop! -I am the one that Shiloh wants.
I don't want Quinn or Liam or anybody else to...
-get hurt because of me. -Hold for my call.
-[both grunting] -[dramatic music continues]
[Quinn grunting]
[Shiloh grunting]
[both groan]
I'm gonna get that lying, murdering monster...
[Quinn chocking]
toxic, cesspool of friends.
-[muffled] -I...I didn't...
-Ozzie... Please... -[coughing]
-[gunshot] -[thuds]
-Mom! -[Quinn sobbing]
-Liam! -Move. Move.
-[Officer Ryan] Check the back. -Mom, I'm sorry.
No, you have nothing to be sorry about.
It's me that should be sorry.
I was trying to solve the case.
You were amazing, baby.
I'm so proud of you.
You're a strong and a brave fighter.
-Runs in the family. -Yeah.
-Dad would be proud of you. -No, I mean you.
-[message tone chimes] -[Anna voice message]Quinn!
[Anna]I know you're tired of me calling you, and I wanna say
this will be the last time, but
I really, really think you should reconsider
doing the guest spot in the Blind Items movie.
Think how much audiences are gonna love it.
The real detective behind the real story.
[Liam] I think you should do it.
No, thank you.
I don't wanna give you one more reasons
to be embarrassed of me in front of all your friends.
I don't ever feel that way anymore.
Not since Carter talked to me about you.
What are you talking about?
Carter.
-[sighs] -[Liam] Well...
we were talking about you, and...
Of course I complained about you, but he stopped me.
He told me he thought that you're a total badass detective
and the best on the job.
He said I should respect you and be really proud of you.
He said he hoped he'd actually be worthy
of being your partner one day.
I told him he already was partners with you, but...
-[chuckles] -he said that's why I should...
stop trying to do your guys' job.
But he understood.
I just wanted to help because...
I didn't wanna lose you too.
Oh, baby. Come here.
[indistinct]
Hey.
Hey, I'm not going anywhere, sweetheart.
I know.
Especially not with me to mentor you.
-Oh, mentor, huh? -[laughs]
To quote, one of my fav video remixes of you...
"You're a badass bitch. Case closed."
Oh.
[female reporter 1]All anyone can talk about
is the upcoming Blind Items movie,
now the studio's biggest budget darling,
and its author Anna Moore,
the real-life Blind Items survivor...
It's a pretty big deal. I think you should do it.
You saved Anna's life and she's ridiculously famous now.
[female reporter 1]Anna Moore was spotted leaving
Luca's on Monday, in an apparent tribute
to the last place that she and her best friend,
the late actress Mia Bailey shared...
-Wait, wait, wait. Pause that. -[beeps]
Liam, baby, remember when you said that even though
you couldn't see anything, you thought that it was a man
that attacked Carter and took you from the house?
-And not Shiloh? -Yeah.
-Do you still think that? -[door opens]
Quinn! Welcome, come in.
I'm glad you're willing to talk more about the guest spot.
Your twenty phone calls were hard to ignore.
Proud to hear it.
Quinn, this is Roman.
Roman, this is the famous and wonderful Quinn Walker.
-[chuckles] -Nice to meet you.
Do you mind grabbing me some lemons from outside?
-Quinn, let's sit down. -Yeah.
I just made some tea.
So how are things going for you and Liam.
[Quinn] Pretty good.
-[Quinn relief sighs] -Finally did it.
-You did what? -Found the truth.
You told me you knew that I would do it.
Ah... it took me a little longer
but... you played your part very well.
-[stammers] -What are you talking about?
It's you, Anna.
You're the Blind Items killer.
-[laughingly] -What?
Jason told me that the studio wanted to pull the plug
on the Blind Items film.
It wasn't public news yet, but you must have found out.
Mia must have told you.
It's probably best that she will never find out.
She was gonna be devastated.
Mia had accepted a role in a bigger franchise
and I think that's what Mia was really
celebrating the night of her death.
-1-4-1! -1-4-1!
-[cheering] -Whoo! We miss you!
-This is news to me. -I don't think so.
I think that you realized that you needed the press
and PR to convince the studio to save your baby, Blind Items.
The cost of your fame and success was
just a handful of your old friends.
And what a better scapegoat than Shiloh, whose true sordid past
made her seem like an obvious killer.
I think you're letting your imagination
run a little wild, Quinn.
Mmm. And I think that man...
Roman, you said?
is your accomplice.
I think you had him kidnap me in the van
outside of Jason Cohen's office that day,
threaten me, knowing that it would only
make me pursue the case even harder.
I think that you had him perform
the actual murders too.
Kidnap my son and attack my partner.
See, we've been looking for the man
who was Shiloh's accomplice,
but really he's been yours all long.
-[Roman grunts] -[Quinn gasps]
-[thuds] -[Anna gasps]
[Anna] No! Quinn, I don't know what to say.
I had no idea he did any of those things.
It must have been him from the beginning.
He, my friends never liked him or our relationship. He...
I haven't mentioned my biggest piece of evidence.
The money records. When I reviewed Jason's accounts
to confirm a certain watch purchase, I noticed
some interesting transactions,
not only was he skimming off Mia's account,
but the finances that he managed for you.
You sent regular checks to Shiloh and Ozzie.
You were paying them off, weren't you?
I don't know what you're talking about.
But when Ozzie decided to go off the grid,
he also stopped depositing the checks.
These murders weren't just a PR move.
You needed to find Ozzie.
You were worried that since he was on a new spiritual path,
he might potentially come clean
about your mutual criminal past.
Ozzie was the one person
that you weren't in touch with anymore.
The one person who didn't come to Jason's wedding.
And you needed the help of our police resources to find him.
Once we did that for you, you gave Shiloh his address
told her to be there so you could frame her.
[exhales]
You're good, Quinn.
Wonder Woman Walker indeed.
But you got one big thing wrong.
It wasn't Ozzie or Shiloh who killed Shiloh's father.
It was me.
-[Anna grunts] -[vase shatters]
[both grunting]
[dramatic music]
[bottle shatters]
[Anna grunts]
-[gunshot] -[both panting]
Don't freaking touch her.
-You see... -[panting]
I've been able to look after myself since the beginning.
-[panting] -Shoot her.
What are you doing?! Shoot her.
[Quinn] I don't think he's gonna do that.
See, I tracked down Roman about a week ago,
and struck a deal with him.
He helps us get a confession out of the person
who wasreallybehind the murders,
and we'll go a little easier on him.
All I had to do was remind him
that if you could so easily take out all of your friends,
you would do the same to him.
[chuckles]
Your impressive performance here
earlier pinning it all on him,
proves I was right of course.
-You ungrateful, evil... -[officer 1] Hands up!
-I'm gonna fucking kill you! -Stop! Stop!
-Fucking kill you! -Hands behind your back.
I'm gonna fucking kill you.
You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say or do can be used against you in court law.
[female reporter 1] Hi, everyone, we're here live
on WNNC, we got Anna Moore leaving the house right now.
Let's see what she's got to say for herself.
-Anna! Anna Moore! -[reporters clamoring]
Anna, are you guilty?
What have you got to say for yourself, Anna?
-[all clamoring] -Anna smile.
[female reporter 2] Anna, Anna, how long have you been...
[female reporter 3] Anna-- [female officer 4] Please.
[Quinn chuckles]
It's about time you showed back up to work.
Eh, my partner always liked flying solo anyway.
-Well, she sounds like an idiot. -Nah.
She's just too brilliant for her own good and knew
she had to show a rookie how it's done.
-[Carter grunts] -[Carter laughs]
-Sorry. -Still on the mend.
[groans]
Thank you for protecting my son.
I could never thank you enough.
Maybe you could show him the ropes a little bit more.
He could use a good role model in his life.
He already has one.
Detective Walker! Detective Walker, over here!
-[female reporter 5] Over here! -[reporters clamoring]
Detective Walker, how does it feel
to catch the real Blind Items killer,
and someone who previously called you a friend?
To quote my biggest inspiration and mentor...
"I'm a badass bitch. Case closed."
In other news today...
Haven't you had enough of that?
-Never. -[chuckles]
You ready to go? You don't wanna be late for your first day
of Law Enforcement Explorers.
Coming.
Come on.
