Boston Blue (2025) s01e05 Episode Script

1
(indistinct police radio chatter)
SARAH: We ID the shooter yet?
No, we're still
canvassing the businesses
to see if anyone can ID him.
Witnesses say it looks
like he knew the victims.
Three employees of a frozen
yogurt shop arriving to work.
Anyone else hurt?
Security guard took a bullet
when the shooter ran south.
He's in surgery at Boston General.
SARAH: Where was the security
guard when the shooting started?
At the guard booth.
So the perp shoots north
toward the frozen yogurt shop,
but then turns and runs south
toward the security guard?
That doesn't make sense.
HALSTON: We did canvass back here,
Superintendent.
The shooter knew the victims.
Maybe he's been here before,
maybe he's a regular.
Why run toward the guard stand?
He went through that gate.
Because that was the plan.
You have a view of the marketplace
and a quick exit behind.
Due respect, I think that's a stretch.
Still think it's a stretch?
They were three teenagers
gunned down this morning
You know we should be out there.
Yeah. Last on the crime board.
Somebody's got to hold down the fort.
Is that sandwich for me?
Oh. Actually, it is.
What a gentleman.
Except it has bacon.
Sorry, I forgot you don't eat bacon.
This sandwich wasn't for me, was it?
It was for Sean.
(laughing)
We were supposed to have breakfast.
He stood me up to go for a run.
I mean, I'm all for the
kid staying in shape,
but I'm trying to spend time with him.
Spend time? You're living together.
And weren't you only supposed
to be with him for a few weeks?
Yeah, it's going great.
We're having a great time so I figured,
why not stay longer, stay close?
Well, there's close, and then there's
"staying on my couch for
three months" close.
You don't want to be that guy.
Not even with Sean.
MclNTYRE: Detectives.
We have an RH special.
MAN: What do you want?
(man continues speaking indistinctly)
What's an RH special?
(sighs) It's the Rose
Hawthorne Museum heist.
- The what?
- 35 years ago,
two thieves dressed as cops
talked their way into the museum
and stole 13 pieces of priceless art.
It's the it's the
biggest unsolved mystery
in the history of Boston.
And let me guess, every now and again,
some armchair detective
shows up with a lead
that's gonna crack the case,
and you can't help but run it down.
- Mm-hmm.
- Oh, yeah.
My former boss used to refer to them
as, uh, cold case crackpots.
Yeah, except I love art
so I get sucked into it every time.
It's like Lucy with the football,
and I'm Charlie Brown.
(chuckles) Okay, Charlie Brown.
Let's see what this
blockhead has to say.
Yeah.
- I don't want to talk about it anymore.
- Fine.
(breathing heavily)
Okay. What the heck was that all about?
I don't know.
He probably chickened out.
A lot of RH specials come
in 'cause they lost a bet
or their friends put
them up to it as a prank.
You gonna eat that egg and bacon?
Nah, you got it.
I mean, it's only been a year,
and my roommate's
already got to move out.
Well, you didn't like him anyway.
I know, but I am a civil servant.
Raising my rent is an affront
- to the city of Boston.
- (laughs)
Oh, boo-hoo.
My old kitchen in New
York was also my bathroom.
All right? And it was worse rentwise
than anything else I've seen in Boston.
Are you seriously bragging
about things being worse
in New York right now?
("Mass Appeal" by Gang Starr playing)
Whatever.
Dude, you okay?
I just didn't get much sleep last night.
My dad wanted to watch an
old World War II movie.
- Another one?
- You know, for a guy who hates war,
he really likes watching movies about it.
(dog barking in distance)
- You seeing what I'm seeing?
- JONAH: Yep.
- Hey (grunting)
- SEAN: Boston Police!
Knife on the ground! Get on the ground!
Growing like grass
with the mass appeal ♪
M-Money ♪
M-Money's growing like
grass with the mass appeal ♪
(grunting)
Money's growing ♪
(song fades)
JONAH: On your knees.
You okay, sir?
I can't remember where I live.
Okay, okay.
(dog whimpering softly)
I got an address.
Let's call these guys in first.
We're gonna get you home.
Good afternoon.
The murder weapon in the triple homicide
at Wharf Street Market
was recently purchased
and registered to an individual
who lives in a duplex in Allston.
The Special Investigations Unit
has executed an arrest warrant
at that location.
- OFFICER: Boston PD!
- (officers shouting)
MAE: Officers have searched the house
for Kyle Ferguson,
who resides at that duplex
and whose fingerprints
were found on the gun.
We have a warrant. Where's Kyle?
He's upstairs.
David, what did he do?
OFFICER: Police! Get on the ground!
MAE: Kyle Ferguson was
found on the second floor.
Kyle is 16 years old.
(reporters clamoring)
(cameras clicking)
Please.
To the parents of the teenagers
who were killed today
our hearts are with you.
Know that Kyle Ferguson
will be prosecuted
to the fullest extent of the law.
(reporters clamoring)
(siren wailing in distance)
Single gunshot wound to the back.
- Mm.
- What'd you come up with?
LENA: Victim is Andy Gosher Jr.
55 years old.
His daughter found him.
- I'll go talk to her.
- Okay.
I'll take a look around.
Excuse me. I'm Detective Reagan.
Uh, can you tell me what happened?
We were supposed to have lunch.
I just came to pick him up.
Can I ask why your dad was moving?
(sniffles) This was my
grandfather's place.
Dad's been living here
taking care of him.
I see.
My grandfather just died of
a heart attack last week.
Hey.
Bag these mugs, yeah?
Do you know of anyone who
would want to hurt your dad?
No. People loved him.
(sniffles)
He was the manager at The Main Mast.
Took good care of his employees.
Customers, too.
(crying)
Who would do this?
We're gonna do our
best to find out. Um
Would you take her in the other room?
Come on. This officer's gonna
walk you to the kitchen, okay?
(sighs) No known enemies.
Lack of forced entry,
two coffee mugs on the table,
no visible signs of struggle.
So the victim knew the killer,
let him in,
which explains why the
victim turned his back
- on the shooter.
- Mm-hmm.
Can you flip him over?
That's the man that came into
the station this morning.
- That's the RH special.
- Yeah.
The crackpot with the
intel on the art heist.
Yeah.
You know
the thieves from the Hawthorne heist,
they cut the paintings
out of the frames.
Okay, wait a minute.
You don't think those
were the same thieves?
Maybe our crackpot wasn't
so cracked after all.
Huh.
SHAW: Is that his father?
You see how bad this makes us look?
I promised the people of Boston
that I would take action.
Mayor Shaw, lower your voice.
Look, I promised to prevent
these kinds of shootings,
and the prevention
starts with the parents.
It actually starts with the guns.
Right. As in how he
got his hands on one?
The kid is done and dusted,
but what about his parents?
We should be going after
them for manslaughter,
just like that kid in Michigan,
his parents.
Michigan is not my jurisdiction, Jim.
And as far as I'm concerned,
people are not criminally responsible
for other people's behavior,
parents or not.
There's a reason that law's been
around for hundreds of years.
Well, maybe Michigan's dragging
the law into the 21st century.
I know this is your call, Mae,
but the press is setting
the narrative here,
and I am getting slammed
with public outrage.
Do something.
(door opens, closes)
He's not wrong.
Parents in these shootings
always say they had no idea
their kid was dangerous.
Mom, the carnage I saw
those kids
What about their families?
Don't we owe them something?
That's exactly who I'm
thinking about, Sarah.
It's my job to bring them justice,
and I can't do that by arresting people
the law won't let a jury convict.
Wouldn't hurt to investigate
the parents, would it?
It can't be a crusade.
Be objective.
Follow the evidence.
I always do.
- (switch clicks)
- SEAN: Ooh.
Home sweet home.
(door closes)
Where's the damn remote?
Is there, uh, something you
want to watch on TV, Mr. Hicks?
- Yeah, Price Is Right.
- (sets down keys)
Come on down.
Yeah.
SEAN: You got it.
(faucet squeaks on)
(turns on TV)
(static crackling)
- (faucet shuts off)
- One second.
(stammers) Leave that alone.
- I'll fix it.
- You sure?
Is there someone that we
can call to help you, sir?
Don't bother.
He won't fix the TV.
He won't even talk to me.
Who's that?
Peter, my son.
Just
I can take care of myself.
Are you sure?
I forgot my address for a minute.
I haven't completely lost it yet.
Wait till you're 80.
Thank you for your service.
Okay, well, look,
I'm gonna leave my card here
just in case you need
anything, all right?
You take care of yourself.
AMY: Kyle wasn't getting along
with some of the kids at school,
but he refused to talk to us about it.
DAVID: The school counselor
said he was distracted,
but he's never been a great student.
He's an artist.
Always writing and drawing
pictures in his notebooks.
These pictures?
(continues turning pages)
We've never seen those before.
How is that possible?
These books were all over his room.
Kyle won't let us in there.
You're his parents.
What are you trying to imply?
That we should've known that Kyle
was gonna do something like this?
I'm wondering why you didn't notice
how troubled your son was.
We tried talking to him.
We got typical teenage silence.
What about your gun?
- Why wasn't it locked up?
- It was.
Kyle must have found the key.
We're responsible gun owners.
We taught our son gun safety.
We took him to the range
to learn proper handling.
We trusted Kyle.
We had no reason not to.
LENA: Okay. Thank you.
What'd you come up with?
CSRU is still testing the
mugs from the crime scene
for usable prints.
So far, the prelim testing, though,
only confirms coffee in them.
Well, I pulled Andy Jr.'s phone records,
and he received two phone
calls this morning.
One from his brother Clayton,
another from a close family friend,
Zachary Alberico.
Both calls came in right
around the same time
and right around the time
Andy was standing right over
there on his cell phone.
When he was shouting into his
phone and left in a hurry.
I have each one of these guys
waiting in separate
interrogation rooms for us.
But Andy Jr. also filed a
police report last night.
Apparently, he was mugged on
the Savin Hill T platform.
Maybe the mugger followed him home.
What about the painting?
Maybe the museum heist crew is
finally turning on each other.
I thought we weren't gonna go down
that road again, Charlie Brown.
Well, let's just see if
these two know anything.
About the murder or about the art heist?
Well, since one could be
connected to the other, both.
- (sighs)
- I mean, come on.
Is this not what you're good at,
shaking the suspect tree
until evidence falls out?
(clicks tongue) Okay.
But I'm warning you, sometimes
when you shake the wrong tree,
you get nothing but rotten fruit.
Yeah, well, if I'm wrong,
I'll buy the breakfast sandwiches.
- How about that?
- Okay, that's a deal.
(sighs) Wh-Why would you show me that?
Why wouldn't I show you that?
Don't you want to see what it looks like
to murder your own
brother in cold blood?
You think I killed Andy?
He knew his killer.
And you called him an hour
before he was murdered.
Were you two fighting about something?
We were packing up our father's house.
He asked me to come over
and help this morning.
I told him I'd be over
later this afternoon.
That was it.
Andy Jr. came to the police department
about an hour before he was killed.
He wanted to speak to a detective
about the Hawthorne heist.
That doesn't make any sense.
You called him around the
same time he was here.
He was arguing with
whoever he was talking to.
I called him because his dad, Andy Sr.,
was my best friend,
and he died last week.
I wanted to see how Andy Jr. was doing.
We weren't arguing.
Can you tell me about this painting?
Andy Jr.'s daughter said that it was
in the frame yesterday
and now it's gone.
You think someone killed
Andy Jr. over a painting?
Well, did he ever say anything about it?
Why would he?
Were you also at your father's
house this morning, Clayton?
No. I was at work.
Are you gonna find whoever
did this to my brother?
- Where were you this morning?
- I was at the gym.
It's near the house,
but I didn't go over there.
Andy Jr. was like a son to me.
I would never, ever hurt him.
(door closes)
Hey. Ready for movie night?
Yeah, we're not watching another
World War II movie, are we?
No, I figured we could watch
one of those Marvel movies
you're always talking about.
You know there's 37 of those, right?
Well
Well, we want to start
some new traditions, right?
(laughs): What better
way than with 37 movies.
No offense, but I'm really
not in the mood right now.
Tough day on the job?
Work was fine.
You want to talk about it?
I don't need to fill you
in on everything, do I?
No, you don't.
(sighs)
Dad, I asked you not to make my bed.
I'm not a little kid anymore.
I know. The place was messy.
I-I Look, I just figured I'd
help.
I talked to Kyle's classmates.
They all said he was
depressed and angry.
He even made violent comments
about the kids he shot.
And his online presence?
First-person shooter games.
Murder memes all over his socials.
Hard to believe his parents
didn't know about any of it.
"Hard to believe"
is not cause for an indictment.
Well, what about the gun?
I mean, his access to
it was way too easy.
The gun was locked up.
You know that's all that's
required by the law.
If you keep punting on this,
you're gonna look tone-deaf.
Punting? Now you sound like the mayor.
I agree with the mayor.
But most importantly,
I'm concerned with negligent parents
whose kids mow down other kids.
Then find proof that Kyle's parents knew
their son was a runaway train
and did nothing to stop him.
I know he means well, but he
literally made my bed yesterday.
- And I
- Oh, no. That's terrible.
What you need to do is talk to him about
- finding his own place.
- I can't.
He uprooted his whole life for me.
And it's great spending time with him,
but I just wish he would leave
at the end of the night.
You know?
What if you left?
What do you mean? It's my place.
I know, but you
could move in with me.
I got to find a new roommate anyway,
and it might be nice for it to be
somebody that I actually like.
You don't think that'd be too much,
- working together, living together?
- Ah.
- We might actually kill each other.
- (chuckles)
Well, at least we'll both
die with our beds unmade.
(laughing softly)
(phone vibrating)
Hello?
Mr. Hicks. No, this is,
uh, Officer Sean Reagan
from yesterday.
No, it's not your son.
No, sir, it's not
No, no, it's not Peter.
I think you called the wrong number.
Mr. Hicks, is everything okay?
Wait
He sounds confused.
He thought he was talking to his son.
- We should go check on him.
- Let's go check on him.
LENA: Rose Hawthorne
built this museum in 1900
- to share her art with the public.
- Huh.
And it's actually modeled after
both Renaissance and Moorish palaces.
Mm. Sounds like you could
be a tour guide here.
I used to spend a lot of time here.
And is that why you got pulled back into
this art heist chase again?
About that. I went through the FBI file.
And Andy Jr.'s dad, Andy Sr.,
along with his friend Zachary,
- were suspects in the heist.
- Oh.
LENA: They were both known
burglars at the time.
The Feds had hundreds of suspects,
but these two matched
the description of the heist thieves.
So the Feds brought
them in for questioning
but couldn't get anything to stick.
If the Feds had hundreds of suspects,
I'm sure they had dozens of people
who matched the description,
not just those two.
Yeah, but Andy Sr. is dead.
And his son, Andy Jr.,
comes into the station to tell us
he has information on the heist
- and then he is murdered hours later?
- Fair.
And there's these paintings
from Rembrandt, Manet, Degas
that were never found.
Half a billion dollars.
Okay, maybe it's all connected
and maybe you're right,
and we're looking into it,
but our job is to find a murderer,
so let's keep our eye on the ball.
Now, tell me which painter is the one who
- chopped off his own ear or something.
- Oh.
Oh. Wow.
They keep the empty frames
on the wall as a reminder.
DANNY: What's the theory on where
all these stolen paintings ended up?
FBI thinks they're
either in a Saudi palace
or hidden in Boston somewhere
'cause they're too
recognizable to fence.
You notice anything about this one?
It's exactly the same size
as the one in Andy's house.
Do you know what painting
used to live in this frame?
This Manet.
DANNY: I don't get it.
Why cut the painting out of the frame?
If it's so valuable,
you could risk damaging it,
making it worthless.
Why not just take the frame, too?
Of course.
The frame.
We got to go.
Wh
You know what she's talking about?
You think that was an actual Manet?
Did your grandfather
ever say anything about
the Hawthorne Museum heist?
No.
I-I-I know he got in some
trouble when he was young,
with Uncle Zach, but nothing like this.
And you never noticed the
signature on the painting?
I-I did, but my dad
said it was a knockoff.
It was in such a cheap frame,
no one ever gave it a second thought.
LENA: Cheaper frames leach
paint from the artwork.
And that's why
priceless art
is framed in high-quality wood.
(sighs)
Son of a gun.
I think after your grandfather died,
your dad found out that he
was part of the heist crew.
And I think another member
of that crew killed your dad
and stole that Manet to
keep a 35-year-old secret.
(sighs)
- Reagan?
- DANNY: In the kitchen.
I pulled paint from the frame,
and if I'm right and
it matches the Manet,
then we could solve one of
the biggest heists in history
and establish motive for the murder.
And if I'm right, we may be able
to connect this to our killer.
Something the evidence techs missed:
our first actual lead.
- (siren wailing)
- (tires squealing)
That's Mr. Hicks.
You take the stairs.
I'll see if there's a fire escape.
12-Jake-101 requesting
backup at 1794 Rexford Street
for a man on the roof.
We need Fire and EMS.
(door opens, closes)
I can't get the damn TV to work, Peter.
You're never around when I need help.
Mr. Hicks, I can help.
Why don't you, uh,
step away and let me do that.
I spent my whole damn
life taking care of you.
Now your mother's gone,
you don't talk to me.
No one can fix the TV!
- Mr. Hicks!
- Stop calling me that.
Okay, Dad.
You're right. I'm sorry.
I should've been there for you.
I shouldn't have pushed you away.
You'll always be part of my life,
no matter what.
I love you, Dad.
Please, can you come
away from the ledge now?
(cries out)
- Mr. Hicks!
- (grunting)
(strained grunting)
(grunting)
(panting)
That was way too close.
We got to get him into
protective services.
That's only temporary.
We got to find his son.
Mmm. Those steaks are delicious.
If my doctor ever told me
to stop eating beef, I'd
OTHERS: Have to get a new doctor.
(laughing)
- I heard you caught an RH special.
- (sighs)
- You actually think it's real?
- I do.
Oh, my God. Sucker.
- (gasps) How dare you?
- What's that? What?
The Rose Hawthorne Museum heist?
People have been trying
to solve it for decades.
And who's to say your sister won't?
Thank you, Mom.
Actually, we're still waiting
on some key evidence.
I'm just saying, wouldn't the son know
that his father was an art thief?
Not every father and son are
close like you and Sean.
That's fair.
Maybe they should be.
Maybe then they would stop their sons
before they shoot up a public place.
- Excuse me?
- I'm sorry,
but the parents should've known
what was happening with their kid.
No parent can know absolutely
everything about their kids.
- Especially teenagers.
- MAE: You don't know everything
that's going on in
Phoebe's life, do you?
DANNY: Yeah. I'm gonna have to agree
with the D.A. and the
Reverend on this one.
I agree with Sarah.
Aren't the parents responsible
if their kid uses a gun
that they bought?
Well, it depends on the case,
and it depends on the parents.
If they were negligent, of course.
But your mom, she didn't want me
to teach you and your
brother about gun safety.
I mean, I'm a cop.
I had to have a gun in the house.
What if I didn't teach you
and you went off the rails one day
and did something
horrible with that gun?
Should your mom get locked up for that?
No, but I think you would've noticed
if I was unraveling, right?
The point I'm making is,
nobody can police their
kids 24 hours a day.
Not even the police.
MAE: That's very true.
Should I remind you about Ambush Day?
- Oh.
- (exhales)
- What's Ambush Day? Yeah.
- LENA: Yeah.
Ambush Day was a random
day that Mom would pick
to just sweep our rooms.
And check our search history.
- And read our journals.
- SARAH: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
- Mm-hmm.
- Oh.
- That's awful.
- (laughter)
- Yeah.
- Can you give me details, please?
Did you issue yourself a warrant
for that, District Attorney?
I did find out when you
got your first kiss.
(groaning)
(laughing)
Oh, what are you laughing at?
Everyone remembers the
Yom Kippur incident.
- Uh-oh.
- What's the Yom Kippur incident?
I will pay you a thousand
dollars to keep your mouth shut.
No, no. As your partner,
I feel like I'm entitled
to know about secret,
embarrassing stories.
It's actually in the police handbook.
Yeah, "Partner Secrets."
So, one Ambush Day was on Yom Kippur.
Our guards were down, we were fasting,
and let's just say Jonah got caught
visiting some untoward websites.
I'm sorry, brother.
I had a lot to atone for that day.
(laughing)
Hovering is a true
sign of parental love.
As is protecting your
children no matter what.
Deuteronomy 5:16.
SARAH: What?
Isn't that "Honor thy
mother and thy father"?
Oh, so you were listening.
(laughter)
That's it for me.
I I got a sermon to write.
All right, all right. Well, I'll clear.
- I'll help.
- Thank you.
Hey. What Grandpa said in there
about parents protecting their kids
got me thinking about the
shooter's parents again.
Okay, what are you thinking?
We've been trying to
prove that the parents
should've had knowledge
of Kyle's mental state
and done something to
prevent the shooting.
But what if they did something
to protect their son from
punishment previously?
Well, if we can prove that the parents
had a pattern of helping their son
avoid negative consequences in the past,
it implies knowledge of
what Kyle would become now.
Knowledge that he was a runaway train
that they did nothing to stop.
That could work. See what you can find.
LENA: Got a match.
It's the same type of paint
from the stolen painting.
And it's from the same time period.
The painting was legit?
It's the first clue in the
Hawthorne heist in 35 years.
Good work, Charlie Brown.
You were right, and I admit it.
It's too bad somebody had
to die for it, you know?
Andy Jr. gets killed
'cause his father commits
a crime so many years ago?
- He never even knew about it?
- (sighs)
Yeah.
Now, you want to tell me
what's going on with you?
And don't say "nothing."
I used to spend a lot of
time at the Hawthorne Museum
because I thought about studying art.
- Like art school studying art?
- Yeah.
- Huh.
- And I was really talented.
Hmm.
But I didn't follow through.
You didn't see it paying
off in the future?
My detective salary is just
(exhales) rolling.
(laughs): Yeah, you and me both.
- Cash, yeah. (laughs)
- Yeah, both of us.
Nah, I just gave it up.
Why did you give it up?
Because art was not a
talent that my mom had
so I figured I got it
from my biological father.
The biological father
whom you never met.
Yeah. And I buried
this part of myself 'cause I was trying
to be different from the
man who abandoned me.
Have you tried talking to Mae about it?
You know, I used to ask
her about my dad, um
and she would just always say,
"He left when you were a baby.
He's not in our lives."
So eventually I stopped asking.
Maybe it's time to ask again.
You know, sometimes
when you push somebody,
you just end up pushing them away.
Right.
Well, we never know until we try.
Oh, by the way, while you were
cracking the Hawthorne case,
I might've cracked our murder case.
Did CSRU finish testing on the mugs?
No usable prints,
but there is a grease
smudge under the handle
that matches the grease
smudge on the coffeepot.
So Andy Jr.'s killer,
- who he knows, comes over
- Mm-hmm.
makes them coffee, they argue.
He kills him, panics and leaves.
Did they test the grease?
They did. It contains lithium complex,
which you would find in automotive oil
and you'd probably also find
on the hands of a mechanic,
like Clayton.
So we need to talk to him again.
That's right.
DANNY: After you called your brother,
he went straight to your
father's house to meet you.
That's because you told him
to go there, didn't you?
I told you. I didn't go to the house.
I was at work.
Problem is, we found grease
on the coffeepot and the mug
that was next to Andy's body.
DANNY: And guess what kind
of grease it was, Clayton.
Mechanic's grease.
We also got a search
warrant to your house
and found this in the closet.
We're running ballistics on it now,
and it's gonna come back
as a match to the gun
that killed Andy Jr., isn't it?
Isn't it?!
So here's what we think happened.
Your father dies,
you and your brother find out
about his involvement in the heist,
so you kill Andy Jr. To
keep the art for yourself.
But you need to tell us,
was Zachary involved?
DANNY: Come on, Clayton.
You're looking at life
without parole, okay?
Now, we know Zachary called your brother
the same morning that you did.
Now, if you give up Zachary,
we can get you a reduced sentence.
But you need to give him up now.
Zach had nothing to
do with Andy's death.
It was all me.
Andy called me the night before,
told me he'd found a safe-deposit box.
Inside the box was a
key to a storage unit
with a note from our dad
confessing that he stole
the Hawthorne artwork.
So Andy went to the storage
unit and found the art?
I wanted to sell the art,
but he refused to tell me
where the storage unit was.
He started to walk away from me.
I told him to stop. I
I pointed the gun at him, but it just
(crying)
it went off.
I swear, I only wanted to scare him.
- I never meant to hurt him.
- DANNY: But you did hurt him.
You pointed this gun
at your brother's back,
and you killed him over
some old paintings.
If Andy and I had known the truth,
if we had known our
dad a little better
(crying): at all
maybe none of this
would've ever happened.
Dr. Curtis, Kyle Ferguson was expelled
from several schools.
But all of those expulsions
were officially changed
to transfers due to doctors' notes
giving different diagnoses.
Confidentiality doesn't hold
when there's an imminent threat.
Can you at least tell me
if he was on medication?
Fine.
(hangs up phone)
(pills rattling)
They knew.
Clayton confessed to killing Andy Jr.
I'm sorry to hear that.
I'm sure you are.
So why am I here?
'Cause my partner has
a question for you.
Where's the Manet?
The one that was on Andy Sr.'s wall.
Your friend.
The one you both stole from the
Hawthorne Museum 35 years ago
along with 12 other pieces of art.
I have no idea what
you're talking about.
The thing is you do, though.
'Cause I think you found out
Andy Jr. discovered the truth
and knew where the artwork was.
But before you could get to him,
Clayton killed him.
And then you took that opportunity
to lift the Manet, again.
If I stole a painting from Andy's
why would I leave an empty frame?
Taunt the museum.
And the police.
That would be kind of funny,
wouldn't it?
But you can't prove anything.
So I'll be leaving now.
You're not gonna get away
with this for much longer.
- I'll be watching you.
- So will I.
Won't be much to see.
I'm just a regular guy
living a normal life.
Same as I have been
for the past 35 years.
(door closes)
I can't believe my grandfather
stole all of those paintings.
And that one of them was on his wall.
We know this is hard to process for you.
We're terribly sorry.
Thanks for meeting me on my way out.
I don't know if any of this can help.
Maybe a computer? Cell phone?
Anything we can use to
access personal files.
Yeah, uh, his cell phone's in this box.
I set the code up for him.
Thank you.
We'll just be a minute.
All right, security camera footage.
Yeah, there's the storage unit.
Is that Andy Jr. finding the stolen art?
It's the last update from
the storage unit camera.
Mm-hmm.
DANNY: Location services is off,
but time stamp says 7:02 p.m.,
the night before the murder.
Andy Jr. got mugged 12 minutes later
the night before the murder
at 7:14 at the T station.
In Savin Hill.
So if we can find a storage unit
that's 12 minutes away
from that station
we find the art.
Your son had severe mental illness.
- And we were getting him help.
- Which is commendable.
But you also knew he could hurt people.
That's not true.
His doctors never told
us he could be violent.
That's what these medications are for.
And from the dates on the
bottles and how full they are,
it's obvious he was not taking them.
You have no idea
what it is like to have a son like Kyle.
We thought if we gave him some space
We just didn't think that
he would unravel like this.
That's the point.
You didn't think.
Both of you stand up and put
your hands behind your back.
You're under arrest.
Under arrest? This is absurd
I said hands behind your back.
(reporters clamoring)
SHAW: In addition to charging
Kyle Ferguson with first-degree murder,
the District Attorney's
Office will also be charging
his parents with
involuntary manslaughter.
("Human" by Brandi Carlile playing)
SHAW: Madam District Attorney?
The BPD has established
a pattern of behavior
that proves the Fergusons
were well aware
their son Kyle was a ticking time bomb.
Not only did they do
nothing to try to stop him,
they put a gun in his hands.
These parents bear the responsibility
for their son's crime.
Three young lives are gone.
But this office can get
justice for their families.

I-I came as soon as I heard

I don't remember any trouble.
I'm sorry I didn't check in on you.
And I'm sorry I-I
I let a stupid little
fight come between us.
I shouldn't have said what I said.
(laughing): I don't
remember that either.
How about you come stay with us?
Anna would love to have you closer.
We'll see each other all the time.
Walk her to school.
Anna.
How old is she now?
She's eight.

Walking Anna to school would be nice.

Wait, so Hawkeye made it on the team
even though all he has
is a bow and arrow?
Yeah, but he's, like,
a really good shot.
He better be.
The rest of them have superpowers.
- Can we talk about
- I was
(sighs)
- (chuckles quietly)
- You go first.
I'm sorry things have been
so tense around here lately.
I'm the one that should be sorry.
I'm crowding you.
Your grandfather always said
he wanted his kids to have two things:
roots and wings.
Yeah, I remember that.
Yeah.
Well, your roots are very strong.
I can tell.
But I haven't been letting
you spread your wings.
So (sighs)
I think it's time I got my own place.
Well, what if that was
this place, you know?
What do you mean?
Well, Jonah said he could
use a new roommate,
and he's got more space than this.
And I was thinking maybe you
could take over my lease.
You mean the lease that
I already cosigned?
Yeah. Yes, that lease.
Okay.
Well, I mean, I do like the place.
(chuckles softly)
- I appreciate that.
- Yeah, me, too.
And if you don't want to watch this,
you know, we can put on something else.
- No, no, I'm into it.
- Yeah?
I want to see how this
bow-and-arrow guy holds up.
