Will Trent (2023) s04e03 Episode Script

[FAITH] Previously on Will Trent
- Ava Green?
- It wasn't me. I promise.
- I had nothing to do with this.
- Well, that's too bad.
I thought those Deux Peches
photos were pretty great.
- Um, thanks.
- This is exactly what I need.
All right, let's go. Whoa.
- I can't put you back in jail like this.
- So don't, then.
Can we talk about your scan?
Unfortunately, this
dark area is a tumor.
- How's chemo?
- Well, my urine smells like gasoline.
Hold on a second.
[MAX] Hey, are you okay? Dad.
Ava, I gotta be honest with you.
- I'm not ready to jump into something new.
- Bad breakup?
She's still around. She
might always be around.
It's never too late to decide you're
ready to jump into something new.
I'm Will. This is Betty.
It's Betty Maria White Trent.
I know you're only five pounds,
but you really feel like six.
I think she's self-conscious
about the cone.
Betty, you take care of Nico,
okay? You're gonna be all right.
Betty. Betty?
[BARKS]
- [WILL] What is it, girl, huh?
- [BETTY BARKS]
[SHUTTER CLICKING]
Drop a little shoulder.
[CHUCKLES]
Should I, like, keep my chin down?
I think it's giving too much neck. Yeah?
Little growl.
Cool?
[SHUTTER CLICKING CONTINUES]
Hey, what's that?
Put that down. That's-That's not funny.
Look, I'm not kidding.
Move. Get Get off of
me! Stop! [SCREAMS]
- [SHUTTER CLICKING]
- [FAITH] Get a close-up of her chest.
She has three or four stab wounds.
- See?
- Mm-hmm.
But the first couple look shallow.
Like maybe they were hesitating
First-timer, must be.
[FAITH] Hmm
[CELL PHONE RINGING]
Will, where are you?
Oh, you know, just
trying to solve the mystery
of how to get to the damn crime scene.
Studio 4B, fourth floor.
Thank you, Amanda. So helpful.
I know it's on the fourth
floor. I'm on the fourth floor.
Will Trent?
- Ava.
- Hi.
Hi.
[CHUCKLES] How long has it been?
Oh, uh A long time.
You still have that suit.
- I've missed that suit.
- Oh. Yeah. I've, uh, missed you.
No, um, I mean, I forgot all about you.
- Well, thanks so much.
- No. I mean, I forgot this.
And now, here you are, um, which is
Yeah, nice surprise.
- Are you here about Chloe?
- Yes.
- Um. Wow, word gets around fast.
- The whole building's talking about it.
- I work on six.
- Photography?
Actually, I'm doing the archives
for this building. Got a grant.
That's great.
- Congrats.
- Yeah, thanks.
So, you, uh Did you know Chloe?
Not personally, but I had a couple
of friends who photographed her.
They all said she was
really sweet. It's so sad.
[WILL'S PHONE] Call from Amanda.
Call from Amanda.
- Amanda calling.
- Call from Amanda.
I should, um
Hey, uh, where is Studio
4B in this labyrinth of torment?
[CHUCKLES] Yes, it's down
the hall. The last one on the left.
It's not your fault. The
building is a nightmare. Is, um
Is that a new phone?
[CHUCKLES] Yes.
That's my number.
[WILL'S PHONE] New contact: Ava.
In case you didn't
have it or need it or
whatever.
Bye, Will.
Bye.
This is so tragic, and I'm
not trying to be insensitive,
but if we could please try
and keep this out of the press.
We don't have any plans to
speak to the press, Ms. Talvesco.
[TALVESCO] Oh. Okay.
Because the rental market right
now is hell, and if they find out
- that there was a murder in the building
- Mom. Mom. Mom. Just let her do her job.
Will, this is Ms. Valentina
Talvesco. She owns the building.
And her son, Alex, who
manages the studios.
Special Agent Will
Trent. Nice to meet you.
Uh, can you tell me
who's renting the unit now?
Oh. Nobody. It's been
vacant for three months.
So, the door was locked and
no one had access but you two?
We got scammed.
Someone emailed my mom's
account claiming to be Hans Kessler.
- He's a fashion photographer.
- He's an icon and an old friend.
I used to let him
shoot here in the '80s.
So, what did the email say?
Said he needed a place for last minute,
so we left the door unlocked for him.
Did you give him the code
to the front door as well?
I haven't changed the code in 40 years.
Kessler's been in
Venice for the past month.
Someone hacked his account.
We traced the login to a throwaway
device on public Wi-Fi. Dead end.
They also emailed Chloe
inviting her here for a shoot.
She was an up-and-coming model.
Probably thought this was her big break.
[WILL] Hmm.
- Any signs of sexual assault?
- Not that I can see.
Why kill her here?
This place isn't private.
Is, uh Was this black light?
[FAITH] Holy moly.
[WILL] Yeah, so, she thought
she was meeting Kessler.
But instead, someone else showed up.
Three symmetrical voids.
There was a tripod here.
They were taking pictures of her.
She realized what was happening,
and then she tried to run.
Yeah, and they kept shooting.
Vintage film, hard to find.
This was a special occasion.
They didn't just want her dead.
They wanted a photo of her dying.
[NICO] Never say
"walk" unless you mean it.
If your dog is as cute as Betty,
be ready to talk to everyone.
Oh, and if they look at you while
they poop, that's a sign of trust.
Don't look away or
you'll damage your bond.
Having a dog is a big responsibility,
Coop. You sure you're up for it?
Well, yeah, that's why I wanted to
hang out with Nico and Betty today.
For research.
Ah.
Great.
You guys go ahead. I'll catch up.
- Can I tell you a secret?
- I'm a steel trap!
Well, I don't really want a dog.
Look, Betty's cute and all, but
I'm much more of a cat person.
I just wanted to get my
dad out of the house.
The doctor said gentle
exercise, but if he can't lift weights,
then he acts like there's no
point in doing anything at all.
Betty and I are here any time
your old man needs a stroll.
Undercover dog duty.
[BETTY BARKING]
Betty, no. What did I say last time?
What's she barking at?
That's Viggo's house.
We hang out sometimes.
He gives Betty
C-O-O-K-I-E-S, the junky kind,
but Will gets upset when
he smells them on her breath.
Betty. No.
I dropped the leash.
What if I killed Betty?
[MICHAEL] Deep
breath. We'll get her back.
There's a dog door around
back she goes through.
Viggo's the best. Come
on, it's not a problem.
[KNOCKING]
Hi, um, sorry to bother you, but
our dog just ran through the dog door.
- If
- I'll get.
Okay, great. I'll just wait here.
We haven't met. I'm Nico.
- You a friend of Viggo's?
- Niece.
- Hey, there you are.
- [BETTY WHIMPERS]
All right. Hey, thanks, you
guys. I really appreciate the help
They seem nice.
That's weird. Viggo never
mentioned he had a niece.
He said he was an only child.
- Dad.
- Yeah?
- Dad, look. Betty's bleeding on her paw.
- What?
Let me see. It's okay, Betty.
I don't see any cuts. Her paws are fine.
I don't think it's her blood.
Guys Guys, go around
the corner. I'll be right there.
[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]
[FAITH] The knife fits the
profile of the one used to kill her.
Yeah, but why take these photos
if you plan on doing it for real?
Practice?
[WILL] Fetish?
Hey, um Hi. Thanks for coming. Um
- You remember my partner, Faith?
- Hi.
Ava, hi.
So, this is the expert you mentioned.
I'd hardly call myself an expert.
Oh, Ava's a photographer,
if you remember.
Oh, I do remember. Mmm.
[WILL] So, these are the photographs.
We found them when we
searched Chloe's apartment,
but we have no way to
find out who took them.
Thought you might
be able to help us out.
- Crispin Ratner.
- That was quick.
All his work is the same.
Naked women covered in fluid.
Is he single?
[SCOFFS]
He's part of the Indie
Sleaze revival scene.
You know, dude photographers
passing off their sex fetishes as art.
He was big a while back,
but he barely works now.
- Why's that?
- He was assaulting models for years.
Finally, someone said something.
He used to have a studio in the
building where Chloe was killed.
I remember Valentina mentioning it.
He'd know the code to the front door.
He'd know everything about that place.
Do you know any reason why
he would wanna hurt Chloe?
[SCOFFING] Yeah. He hated her.
She's the one who Me Too'ed him.
See? See that expression?
She never makes that face.
So, you think Betty was traumatized
by what she saw at the house?
And you're cosigning this?
The blood on her fur was human.
She may have witnessed violence.
Yeah. Or someone had a nosebleed
or cut themselves shaving,
and that's just before breakfast.
Why is there a dog here?
[BETTY WHIMPERS]
What are you doing?
Nothing. You want something
from the vending machine?
I'll get it for you.
- Move.
- This is my office.
No one gave you permission
to build this weird fort. Move.
You know, homicide
in Atlanta is down 35%.
Maybe it's time we
think about some cuts.
I already have all my
paperwork turned in, okay?
I'm just pursuing a personal project.
Oh. What is this? This is not Snickers.
Snickers is D4.
I hate it here.
I hate you.
And I hate this room-temperature pickle.
Angie, please, don't make me beg.
Fine, I'll check it
out. Coffee's on you.
This is a perfectly good pickle.
From the trash.
So?
GBI!
We're looking for Crispin Ratner.
He's soaking.
In the tub.
- You don't mind if we come in, do you?
- It's not a good time.
Crispin Ratner! GBI!
[WILL] Did our boy go out the window?
If he did, he's long gone.
[SIGHS, SCOFFS]
[GASPS, COUGHS]
[GRUNTS]
[WILL] Sir, settle down.
- [RATNER GRUNTING]
- Sir, we're placing you in custody.
[FAITH GRUNTS]
[GRUNTS, GROANS]
- Get your hands off me.
- [FAITH GRUNTS]
Is this fun for you? Huh?
- [FAITH] Yeah.
- [WILL] You're doing great, partner.
- [RATNER] This is sexual assault.
- You do it.
[RATNER GRUNTING]
[WILL] Fine.
[GRUNTING]
- Hands behind your back. Stay still.
- Get off.
- [GRUNTING]
- [WILL SIGHS]
Be careful with that. It's
worth more than your salary.
You have a thing for blades?
Because of the Polaroids?
I already told you, the knife
was plastic. It's called art.
His alibi cleared. Sorority
party in the west end.
Girls said he was trying to hit on them.
Trying? They loved it. [CHUCKLES]
Thanks a lot for that.
Can you take the cuffs off?
I can't have this cheese
ruin another kimono.
Okay, sir, can you
please close your legs?
- Look, you might not have killed Chloe
- [CHUCKLES]
but we still have you on
drug possession, evading arrest,
assaulting a GBI agent,
and indecent exposure.
I'm not gonna ask you
again. Close your legs.
Think I'm holding anything back?
Look, if I had anything, I'd tell you.
- Where'd you get this film?
- EBay. Cost me a fortune.
Some rich freak hired me
for a shoot. Super expensive.
He insisted I use his vintage camera.
Was really specific
about the film stock.
Name.
Gideon Barnell. Art
collector over in Ansley Park.
What kind of pictures you take for him?
Roadkill, other weird crap.
Guy's obsessed with dead stuff.
He has an art salon at his house
every month. I think one's coming up.
You should go talk to him.
Copy that. Thanks for the update.
- [LINE DISCONNECTS]
- [SIGHS]
Judge won't give us a warrant.
Says there's no probable cause.
- That's BS. Which judge?
- Dude [SIGHS]
I know desk duty can be frustrating.
If you're getting restless,
let's just figure something out.
- Polaski, you know me, okay?
- Let's
How long we been doing
this? Something's off in there.
Without PC, all we
can do is knock again.
Then we knock again.
Okay.
[DOG BARKING]
Mr. Shaw. Hi, I'm Michael
Ormewood with the APD.
This is my partner, Angie.
We're friends of your neighbor, Nico's.
What's going on?
Uh, it's just a wellness check.
Nico hadn't seen you in a few days.
What happened to your cheek?
My cheek?
Oh, uh Nothing. I I fell.
Uh, look, I I was in the middle
of making lunch, so if that is all, I
There was a couple here earlier.
Friends. They're gone.
So, that's not their car?
That's mine. It's new.
The lady said she was your niece.
Like a niece, not blood.
[SIGHS] Is there something wrong?
I'm confused by all your questions.
We just want to make sure you're safe.
That's very nice. I'm fine.
Okay, that was weird.
"Put a rush on it, bitch."
- Hey.
- Hey.
Hey, GBI is gonna do a rush background
check on old man Viggo for us.
Really? Since when are they nice to us?
I told them Trent was
on the investigation,
so it should be here in a minute or two.
- What are you hoping to find?
- Whatever gets us through the door.
[PHONE BEEPING]
Oh, crap.
- What?
- Coop's got a book report due tomorrow.
I told her I'd help, and I
forgot to read the book.
- Oh. CliffsNotes. That still a thing?
- [SIGHS]
No, she'd know. Kid's
got a built-in BS detector.
[CHUCKLES]
[SIGHS] Yeah.
You good?
Feels like I suck at everything lately.
Yeah, I can't do the job. Too
tired to be a parent. I'm just
Aw. Sounds like you need
to cut yourself some slack.
- [CHUCKLES] Yeah.
- Max and Cooper don't care.
They'll take you any way they can
get you. They just want to hang out.
That's really nice for you to
say that, but it's a load of crap.
They deserve a dad who
can keep his eyes open,
and you deserve a partner
who can hold his own.
Have you seen me lately?
I'm a beach ball with hands.
That's why I got to be the guy.
Don't do that. That's dumb. Come
on, you're going through something.
Everyone understands that.
- Yeah.
- [COMPUTER CHIMES]
Oh.
Here it is. Okay. Nothing on Viggo.
Guy's a ghost. No record, no
socials, not even a parking ticket.
That's That's cool.
All right.
Bright and early, I'm picking you up,
- and we'll go sit on his house.
- Stakeout? Seriously?
You dragged me into this thing,
we're not just dropping it now.
Come on, you in?
[SIGHS]
I'm in.
- Okay.
- [MICHAEL CHUCKLES]
[SYNTH MUSIC PLAYING]
Ever seen Psycho?
It just blinked. Did you see that?
Hugo, Jasmine, this is Gideon.
Hugo and Jasmine Balas.
They're visiting from Miami.
- Nice to meet you.
- Thank you for having us.
Hugo used to have a gallery in Savannah,
but he left because he doesn't
think Georgia has an art scene,
and I'm trying to make my case.
I have to say I'm almost convinced.
But you haven't even seen the latest.
Follow me.
You are a natural.
Thank you for getting
us in here, by the way.
Gideon always invites me. I never
show. He gives me the creeps.
Well, I guess I better stay
close, you know, to keep you safe.
Have you ever watched
something die, Mr. Balas?
There comes a moment when
the soul slips free of a body.
When all ego, all
performance falls away.
Ugh
To capture such a moment,
what a challenge.
But to do so is to reveal
the nothing beneath the thing.
Enjoy.
[FAITH] He's a good time.
Please tell me he didn't kill
that deer just to get the shot.
[GUEST 1] I heard a rumor he'd
pay 500k to get one of a person dying.
[GUEST 2] 600 if she's pretty.
[GUEST 1] I wouldn't
put it past Barnell.
I mean, with money like that, he could
get away with murder. [CHUCKLES]
[AMANDA] Why are
people so weird and gross?
Poor girl died because of
some rich person's fetish.
- Hmm.
- So let's say your theory is right,
and he wanted to add a photo
of Chloe dying to his collection.
Who would he hire to do this?
Well, my guess is he hired a
photographer who needed the money
and was desperate enough to kill for it.
[SIGHS]
I got that list of buyers
from the eBay seller.
He sold a roll of HAJEK
KD-25 three weeks ago.
Anonymous username,
shipped to a P.O. box.
Guess who it was registered to.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
Ms. Talvesco, we need
to speak to your son.
Um, Alex isn't home. Can
I help you with something?
Ma'am, we have a
warrant to search the place.
A warrant? For my place?
- [WILL] Alex Talvesco, it's GBI.
- [VALENTINA] Is this
Alex?
This must be some kind of a mistake.
Can you please tell me what is going on?
- He's not here.
- Please stay back.
- Ms. Talvesco, where's your son?
- I don't know.
[VALENTINA] You want to
tell me what you're looking for?
Maybe I can help you.
Faith.
Oh, my God.
[VALENTINA] What is that?
[ALEX] Mom?
[VALENTINA] Oh.
You stay here.
Alex Talvesco, you're under arrest.
Put your hands where I can see them.
- Keep them up. Easy.
- Okay.
- [ALEX] Okay.
- Alex, just listen to them.
I I was just trying to help my mom.
I know, all right?
- We just want to talk, okay?
- Okay. Okay.
[VALENTINA] Alex, listen to Mom.
- Baby, listen to Mom.
- Mom.
- Alex, it's all okay.
- [ALEX] I'm sorry.
You didn't do anything wrong, honey.
[CRIES] Mom, I messed up.
- I messed up.
- Alex, listen to my voice.
- Hands behind your back. Easy. Okay?
- [STAMMERS] Okay.
Good.
[WILL] Alex! No!
[SCREAMING] No! No! No! No!
No! No! No!
What'd I miss?
- You're good. Nothing happened.
- Oh, geez.
Sorry, I can't seem to stay
awake for more than 43 minutes.
[BARKS]
- Wow, new record.
- You wanna go home and take a rest?
Please. I feel useless enough as it is.
Hey, be nice to my partner.
- [CHUCKLES]
- [CELL PHONE DINGS]
- [BETTY BARKS]
- Betty, zip it. Stakeout, remember?
Hey. Hey, we got a hit
on those NYC plates.
That car is registered
to one Toni Kumbaro.
Why does that name sound familiar?
- You making a mess back there?
- No, no. I'm fine. I promise. I promise.
Holy crap.
Toni Kumbaro and his wife
Albana just failed to appear
at a racketeering trial in New York.
Alleged members of
Albanian Organized Crime.

- That's definitely a thing.

Okay. Failure To Appear warrant in
New York, that's our probable cause.

Found the knife.
It was hidden in the AC vent.
Still had traces of blood on it.
I gave it to forensics
to check for prints.
Okay.
How's she holding up?
Not good. The medics
had to give her a sedative.
I was right there.
Will, there was nothing
more you could have done.
That thing Alex said about
trying to help his mom
I talked to her about that.
She was worried about the mortgage.
He told her not to worry.
He said he'd take care of her.
She thought that meant a second job.
Found the rest of the
negatives from the shoot.
I want to get these printed just
to cross our t's and dot our I's.
I'll stay here.

Oh, hi.
I was, uh, wondering if you might
be able to help me with something.
I heard about Alex.
I'm so It's horrible.
Yeah. Yeah. It is.
May I hug you?
Was that weird?
No. No.
[CHUCKLES]
[CHUCKLES]
I have these negatives. You
think you could print something?
GBI doesn't have a
lab for this sort of thing?
Oh. Figured this would be faster.
I see.
Okay.
Now what?

One of them belonged to Alex,
the other one's not in our system.

- He told you what you wanted to hear.
- Don't talk about my son.
He's dead because of you.
- You killed him.
- Will.
Ms. Talvesco, I know you're hurting.

Does come with a fair
amount of paperwork.
Not thrilled about
that, but, you know
He was the getaway driver
for the Bijtë e Hijes crime family.
Moved to Atlanta to start
over, but they tracked him down.
Yeah, you saved his life.
It was a team effort.

- Why didn't you just leave her at home?
