Chicago P.D. (2014) s10e17 Episode Script

Out of the Depths

1
[APPREHENSIVE MUSIC]

I'm doing all of it.
The sleep techniques, the breath work
I'm reading all the books.
[METRONOME TICKING]
I'm trying to meditate.
I mean, you know,
I'm sitting there, and I'm breathing.
I'm doing what you said.
- [METRONOME TICKING]
- [MUTED GUNSHOTS]
[LOUD GUNSHOTS]
- [METRONOME TICKING]
- [MUTED GUNSHOTS]
The, uh, exposure therapy,
the exercise.
[PANTING]
I am trying.
But I just feel
I mean, I don't
I feel tired, and I don't feel better.
That's okay.
If you don't feel better yet,
that doesn't mean you won't,
and I can keep giving you
all these practical tips.
I'm happy to do that.
Have you thought at all
about what we talked about
bringing your partner for a session?
I just don't think
Adam would be up for it.
How do you know if you haven't asked?
I also don't think it's gonna do
what you think it's gonna do.
I really don't have any grand plans
that I'm not telling you.
It's not some trick.
It might help to have
someone you love with you.
You're doing all the work.
I see that, but I also see
it's been very difficult
for you to confront
the possibility that this
may have affected your life.
Or maybe it hasn't?
I know I need to be here. I know.
I'm doing the work.
I just
maybe my whole life
doesn't have to be colored
by something that happened
to me over a year ago.
Okay.
All I ask is you think
about bringing him.
That's all.
We are out of time, unfortunately.
Are we okay to pause here?
Yeah.
[SIGHS]
Female, 60s, camped out in an elevator,
- armed with a kitchen knife.
- [PHONE BUZZES]
Alarm sounding at 3489 Fullerton.
Possible gunfire
reported at 3478 Cermak.

Units on the citywide,
armed robbery in progress
at 3478 Cermak,
- Salinas Food Mart.
- [ENGINE TURNS OVER]
We're getting calls
two armed offenders inside.
50-21 Eddie, I'm real close by,
plainclothes officer
hold me down, responding.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

[DOOR SLAMS]
Chicago PD! Drop your weapon!
[GUNSHOTS]
[GLASS SHATTERS]
50-21 Eddie, 10-1, 10-1!
Shots fired at the police!
I need cars!
All units, hold the air.
We have a 10-1
being called at 3478 Cermak.
50-21, are you hit?
50-21 Eddie, I'm good.
I've got two armed offenders
fleeing southbound on foot
masked, gloved up, black clothing.
- I don't have eyes.
- Help!
Help me!

Chicago PD hands where I can see 'em.
All right. Anybody else here?
No. They just left.
There was two of 'em.
50-21 Eddie, I've got a male beaten.
- I need an ambo.
- Copy, 50-21 Eddie.
Oh, my God. He's gonna die.
He's got a pulse. I need that ambo fast.
Oh, God. They wouldn't stop.
He gave 'em everything
that they asked for,
but they wouldn't stop.
Okay, sir. You are okay.
I-I-I couldn't stop them.
I didn't know how to stop them.
- I-I couldn't stop them.
- Hey hey, hey.
Look at me. You did real good.
He's still breathing. You did real good.
I need you to keep helping me.
Can you do that?
Can you help me?
- Yeah.
- Okay, good.
Go over there right there,
and hold his hand.
- Hold it good.
- [PANTING]
Now, you are gonna breathe with him,
and you're gonna keep him awake.
- [HYPERVENTILATING]
- Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Slow your breathing down.
Slow it down, slow it down.
All right, in for four.
[INHALES]
Hold.
Out for six.
[BOTH EXHALE]
Good.
That's real good.
You're doing real good.
You're helping me, see?
Again in for four.
Hold.
Out for six.
- You all good?
- Yeah. This thing was fast.
According to our witness,
it was quick and violent.
So two armed offenders, both masked,
gloved up, entered
through the front door,
fled through the side.
I arrived as they were fleeing.
We exchanged gunfire.
They both escaped.
Employee said the offender shot
out the security camera first,
then demanded all the cash
in the register at gunpoint.
That's all I got from him so far.
He's in shock.
Why all the mess?
I don't know intimidation?
They made the owner
surrender all the cash
from the register; he did.
Then they beat
the hell out of him anyway.
They got a victim who's touch and go,
on the way to Med.
- Anything on POD cams?
- No, sir.
We pulled footage from a private
security camera down the block,
but we got nothing yet.
Patrol's doing knock-and-talks.
It's a hell of a lot of damage.
How much was in the register?
$42.
All right, look,
there's gotta be a getaway car
somewhere around here.
Just keep diggin'.
As soon as that
employee's calm, talk to him.
Let's find these men fast.
- Hey.
- Hey.
I thought you were undercover
with Sam all day.
Callum's sick.
Richard's not at the yard all week,
so I'm gonna lay low, work on this one.
Are you all right?
I heard the 10-1 on the radio.
- You took close-range fire?
- I'm good, I'm good.
- Let's work, okay?
- All right.
Can you tell us anything
about the offenders?
Did you get a good look
at either of them?
No, they-they were
covered up, head to toe.
Well, what about their voices?
Did either of them have an accent?
Did they say each other's names?
No, only one of them talked
the-the one who beat John.
The other one was just there.
What was the other offender saying?
I-I-I don't know.
He was-he was just shouting.
He shouted the whole time,
and he told us what to do.
He was smashing everything up,
and he was laughing,
like-like he was having fun.
And he just kept saying,
"It just keeps getting
better and better."
This wasn't their first robbery.
It's definitely a pattern.
I spoke to Robbery/Homicide.
They've had four similar hits
this month alone.
Same MO two armed defenders,
masked, gloved, tan duffel.
Only one of 'em ever talks.
Okay, so they enter fast,
shoot up security cameras,
smash and grab, then flee.
They're hitting cash-only
joints on barren blocks,
so we've had no luck with PODs,
but witness from a previous
robbery snapped a photo.
Female offender?
Yeah, it's rare, but they
are a male-female team.
All right, anything in
from Forensics yet?
No, the convenience store
gets a lot of traffic.
They said it's gonna be a minute
to pull, and separate all the samples.
I got that security footage
from down the block.
At least four of those stores
had external cams,
so I could probably pull something.
All right, good. Run through all of it.
Where's Torres?
Uh, Ocean's got that
narcotics interdiction seminar.
We got a slim crew, Sarge.
Nothing from the hardware store.
Camera angle is all wrong.
Yeah, I got nothin'.
Hey, so the hard work
must be paying off, huh?
Huh?
The gunshots you didn't have a reaction.
Points for Dr. Hammond, right?
Oh.
Yeah, I guess.
I'm proud of you.
Whoa, I got him.
Uh, you have footage of the alley
- behind the gangway, right?
- Yeah, yeah.
Where?
- You see that?
- Yeah, she takes her mask off,
but I can't see her face.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
I'm sorry, are they, uh?
Oh, yeah, they are
they're having sex.
All right. They came up this way.
It's right here.
He pushed her up against this fence.
Ain't the strangest thing I've seen.

We got hits off the balaclava.
Victim's blood was on the outside,
and we caught blonde hairs inside.
DNA came back with a match.
Hair belongs to a Ruby Bertinelli.
29 years old, she's got an LKA listed
and a car registered to her name,
no priors.
No priors?
Wait, is this is victim DNA?
Yeah, the DNA match came
from a rape kit
performed four years ago.
Are you allowed to give us that?
Isn't this a violation
of victim's rights?
You wanna tell me how to do my job?
No, but this can't possibly
There's nothing in Illinois law
preventing me from giving you that.
You wanted a DNA match. You just got it.
Your offender was a victim once.
Isn't everyone?
- Take it or leave it.
- [KEYBOARD CLACKS]

Was the tech wrong? Is it illegal?
No, not exactly. Legally, it's murky.
Law doesn't prevent him
from getting a hit,
but, uh, you know, he had to dig for it.
Well, if we're legally okay
But it's not ethical.
It sets a terrible precedent,
using a victim's DNA
to build a case on a current crime.
Burge, you already saw the name.
And I shouldn't have, Kev.
The only reason her DNA is in our system
is because she was a victim once.
She has victim's rights.
Kim, you're holding her ID
right there an offender,
an offender who was involved
in five robberies,
the last of which, a man was beaten
- within an inch of his life.
- I know.
I was on the scene with him.
It doesn't make it black and white.
I know that. Look, we got it legally.
It would be unethical not to use it.
I'd never come forward and report a rape
if I knew my DNA
could be used like this.
She reported the rape as a victim,
and that's what it should be used for
and only that.
Look, we're not moral authorities.
We're not lawyers.
It's legal.
We're usin' it.
Look, I don't care
what you put on paper.
Leave the DNA out of it.
Do some creative writing
on the back end.
Run her LKA, her car,
known associates bring her in.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

Uh, this is her LKA.
Doesn't look like anybody's
been here for a while.
I'll check the back.
Chicago PD!
Ruby Bertinelli!

[DOG BARKING]
[DOOR CLICKS OPEN]
[FOOTSTEPS]
Hey, ma'am, how you doin'?
Chicago PD.
Have you seen your neighbor Ruby around?
No.
She don't really live there no more.
Why? What'd she do?
Well, what happened? Did she move out?
Have you ever seen her
with any visitors?
No, she wasn't like that.
She just got weirder and weirder
and stopped coming around.
Weirder?
Was disappearing where she was standing.
Why? What'd she do?
Yo, Kev, Kim, you got your ears in?
Yeah, I'm listening, Ruz. What's up?
Patrol just called in a hit
on Ruby's BOLO.
Got her car parked
about a mile from her house.
Okay, send that address.
We're on the way.
- Thank you very much, ma'am.
- Copy.

Vehicle's unoccupied.
We did a drive-by but didn't approach.
Plates are a match for your BOLO.
The vehicle's registered
to Ruby Bertinelli.
You see any POD cams?
No, block is dark.
Need us to stick around?
- [GUNSHOTS]
- [PEOPLE SCREAMING]
- Hey.
- Go, go, go, go, go!
They might double back. Stay on the car!
Copy!
You're good, you're good. Let's go.
- Let's go.
- Move, move, move, move.
[TENSE MUSIC]
Everybody, get down!
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
The shots came
from that store right there.
We got it, we got it.
50-21 Eddie, on scene, shots fired
possible armed robbery
in progress, 5110 Racine.
- Come on, come on out!
- Go, go, go, go, go, go.
Anybody hurt? Everybody okay?
- Call out.
- They're in the back!
- How many?
- Two.
- Okay, up, up, up, up.
- Stay low, go fast.
- Stay low, go fast.
- Go fast.
Here we go.

Chicago PD! Stop!
- Go, go, go!
- I got him.
Go! 50-21 Eddie, I need an ambo.
Copy, 50-21 Eddie. Ambo en route.
50-21 David, on foot pursuit
of a armed, masked offender
going eastbound in the alley.
Agh!
50-21 David, I lost eyes.
I repeat, I no longer have eyes
Stay with me.
Hang on for me, okay? Hang on.
Still
here.

Chicago PD. Drop your weapon.
Drop it!
Drop it right now, or I will shoot you!
Ruby!

[WHISPERING] Denver, 1,001 miles.
Dallas, 968.
Drop the weapon!
I don't wanna shoot you!
- Drop it!
- 1753.
Drop!
[GUN CLATTERS]
Dallas, 968 miles.
Phoenix, 1,000
1,753 miles.
[WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY]
I got you. I got you.
50-21 Eddie, where's my ambo?
50-21 Eddie, ambo two minutes out.

Dallas, 968 miles.
Phoenix, 1,753 miles.
Salt Lake City
Three weeks ago,
you crashed into a Humboldt Park
liquor store,
stole the money from the cash register
while your partner beat the cashier.
Do you recognize this woman?
Her five-year-old kid
wouldn't look at her, either.
The next week, your partner
smashed a 71-year-old man's head
against a concrete wall.
He'll be lucky if he sees
out of that eye again.
The witness at this one said
it seemed like the two of you
were having a really good time.
Your partner was laughing.
This man is now fighting
for his life at Chicago Med.
And him, father of two,
number three on the way
he just bled out
on the cold, dirty tile.
And you, Ruby, you're
responsible for all of it
you and your partner.
He beat these people.
He killed them while you watched.
So I'd talk now. It's your only shot.
What's your partner's name?
He left you, Ruby.
He left you alone,
chanting on the ground.
Don't be loyal to him. He wasn't to you.
Who is he?
[HAND SLAMS] Ruby.
Do you understand
that you are responsible
for all of this?
Until we find him all of it.
Who is he?
[TENSE MUSIC]

Ruby.
Are you understanding what I'm saying?

Find anything?
Not yet. Her social media's real barren.
She stopped posting four years ago.
Who's this?
That's the man Ruby accused of rape.
Ethan James Hanley
32, multiple priors,
assault, two pops for theft.
They worked together at a bar.
She accused him of rape,
took a rape kit.
What if he's our second offender?
I don't know, Kim.
Look at his stats he's not a match.
You know, the height's
within a couple inches.
He could've lost weight.
It's just that her whole life
changed four years ago
after she recanted, right?
She stopped posting,
stopped making payments,
stopped paying rent.
She withdrew.
Do we have anything that
shows they're currently in contact?
No. We don't have that, no.
But these are
adrenalized thrill robberies.
I mean, that woman that
I saw at that liquor store
May-maybe she was having an episode.
It's kind of the same way I get.
It was like she wasn't there.
Okay.
Or maybe I'm projecting, right?
I don't know, it's just
something feels wrong.
It's a little bit of a stretch.
- Yeah. [SIGHS]
- But hey,
let's check him out, you and me.
All right.
Doesn't look like there's anyone inside.
Ethan Hanley?

Adam.
Chicago PD!
All right, I'm going down.

Clear downstairs.
Clear up top.

He's our second offender.
Ruby's working with a man
she accused of rape.

Tan duffel matches make and model
from previous crime scenes
same goes for clothes and shoes.
And Ethan?
I have no sign of him.
I've got an investigative alert,
a BOLO out on his car,
alerts on all his credit cards.
So neighbor says Ethan
lives with a young blonde
hardly talks, keeps to herself
just ID'd Ruby off a six pack.
So Ruby is living and robbing
with the man she accused of rape?
Well, Ethan was never charged,
because Ruby recanted.
So they were working together before
and continued to work together after.
So they've been around
each other the whole time,
close proximity.
She saw him every day.
Yeah, so the rape probably continued.
The bar shut down,
Ethan started jacking joints,
got her into it.
This girl had nowhere to go,
no place to get help,
she was probably drowning,
trapped, numb so she turned off.
You know, she might
not even be fully aware
of what she's doing.
If Ruby participated
in six brutal robberies,
bad circumstances
may have gotten here there,
but I mean, she was there.
All right, let's dig into Ethan.
Rip this place apart.
Figure out where the hell he'd run.
Press Ruby again.
Make her tell you where he is.
Where?
The question's not gonna change, Ruby.
You have to tell me where Ethan is.
Where is he?
Four years ago, you accused
Ethan James Hanley of rape.
We read the whole file.
You said he forced himself on you
after your closing shift at work.
Threatened to beat you if you screamed,
and then he raped you.
[TENSE MUSIC]
No.
I lied.
It wasn't rape.
And I told the cops that.
Why would you lie
about something like that?

I think it did happen,
and I think you told the truth.
I don't know if the cops
didn't believe you
or Ethan threatened something.
I-I don't know why
you recanted,
but I believe it did happen
No! It didn't, it didn't happen,
and I have nothing else to say.
Ruby, you're looking at multiple
armed robbery charges,
assault, homicide,
attempted murder of a police officer.
You'll die in prison of these charges.
Fine.
Ruby, help yourself.
Just tell me where Ethan is.
You're not gonna get me to
say something that isn't true.
I'm not talking to you.
I have nothing else to say.
She still won't talk.
It's like she backs away
every time she gets close
to even thinking about
what happened with Ethan.
All right, so what else
do we have on Ethan?
Well, we do have confirmation
that the blood on his clothes
were definitely blood
from the victims of the last robbery,
but we don't have anything
on his location.
BOLO hasn't turned up anything.
His phone's off.
No hits on his credit cards.
Upton and UCs are sittin' on his place
- in case he comes back around.
- [PHONE BUZZES]
That man is either laying real low,
or he already skipped town.
All right, so let's just dig
into Ethan's history.
Charges he's made on his card
the past few months.
Parking tickets could lead
back to a place he frequents
old properties, LKAs linked to his name,
associates he'd go to
for help, for cash.
Look, why don't you
go ahead and charge Ruby?
Maybe the charges will
scare her into talking.
Sarge?
I'm trying one more thing
with Ruby first.
I don't wanna be here.
Come on, Ruby, real quick.
You don't need to do this.
It's not gonna do anything.
We're gonna have to charge you,
and I won't be able to say you helped,
which means
- you do time for all of it.
- It's a life sentence, Ruby.
Yeah, you already told me all that.
I know.
I know, and I wanted to give you
one last chance to look it in the eye.
So this is where you used to work,
you and Ethan.
And then, one night
A terrible thing happened.
A terrible thing
that split your life in two,
into a before and an after,
and I think that every decision you made
after that was just to survive,
and you did.
I told you nothing happened here.
Ruby, you can confront this.
I know that you can,
and I'm gonna get you a deal.
I promise, okay?
I will keep you safe.
You'll never have to see him again.
I will get you help,
but you've gotta talk to me.
You gotta tell me where he'd run.
Nothing happened here.
[APPREHENSIVE MUSIC]
I said I don't wanna
talk anymore, and I don't.
Get me a lawyer.
No.
I want a lawyer, okay? Get me a lawyer.
You could've asked
for a lawyer this whole time.
I know that you know that,
and you didn't.
I think that you wanna talk.
I think you're tired,
that you wanna feel better.
- I don't. I don't. I don't.
- Ruby.
I don't. You don't know me.
You don't know anything about me!
I know that he left you.
Ethan left you when you were
scared and panicked.
That's not a partner.
That's not what they do.
Stop.
Do this for yourself, Ruby.
- I know that you can.
- No, stop.
I want a lawyer, okay?
Now! Get me a lawyer!
Okay.

You memorized this.
You were here with him when it happened,
and you memorized this.
I know you're scared,
but you can do this, Ruby.
You can.
[WHISPERS] I don't know.
I don't know, I don't know where he is.
Okay, you don't have to know
exactly where he is.
Maybe you know more
than you think you do.

[SIGHS]
I know how to reach him.

Ruby doesn't know where Ethan would go,
but she says they use an online
game to message each other.
How do we know he's checking it?
She said she's sure if he's
alive, he's checking it.
Ethan might not know
that we arrested Ruby.
He ran. He left her there, cowering.
What if she plays that
she ran out right after him,
and she couldn't get
to a computer until just now?
And what does Ruby think
she's getting for cooperating?
I promised her a deal.
That's not a promise you can make.
- She deserves
- It doesn't matter.
Kim, she is going to do time.
There's no way we're
walking back six robberies.
You need to make sure she knows that.
I will.
All right, have her lure Ethan out.
Get an ASA onboard.
Yeah.
Kim.
I assume if there's ever
anything I need to know about
how you're doing,
you'd tell me.
And I'm not I'm not pressing you.
I'm just saying that
if I need to know, you can tell me.
I got your back.
Thank you.
[SIGHS]
It's better if you do it, Ruby.
Ethan might recognize your word choice
and the way you say things.
He'll know if it's not you.
Okay.
Are we done yet?
For now.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

Guy sure is taking his time.
He said he'll be here. He'll be here.

Okay, everybody, look alive.
We got somebody walking
towards the entrance
male, about 5'10", hoodie up,
can't make a positive ID.
I'ma follow.
Burge and Ruz, he's headed your way.
Keep eyes.
Hold until we have a positive.

We got a positive. It's Ethan.
Move.
Slow and steady.
Chicago PD Ethan Hanley,
turn around and put your hands up.
Put your hands up and get on your knees.
[TENSE MUSIC]

Ethan!
Put your hands up right now
and get on your knees.
It's over!
Where's Ruby?
Where is she?
She's not coming.
Why? What did you tell her?
Thing is, I didn't
have to tell her anything.
What did you make her do?
She did it all on her own.
Now, I want you to get your hands up
and get on your knees!
[SCOFFS]
You know she's a liar, right?
[CHUCKLES] Her head's all messed up!
You can't believe a word she says!
She's broken, and there's no fixing her!
You put your hands up, Ethan, now!

- Gun!
- [GUNSHOTS]
He showed up,
just like you said he would.
But he drew a weapon on us,
and we had to engage.
Ethan's dead.
Now, you will still be charged
like we talked about.
You'll be booked,
but your lawyer's good.
Your deal is good.
[APPREHENSIVE MUSIC]

[BREATHING RAPIDLY]
Ruby?
[WHISPERING] Dallas, 968.
Ruby
stay with me, okay?
You're in a room with me.
Can you hear me?
Phoenix, 1,000
Ruby, I'm here with you
1,001 miles.
- Okay.
- Dallas, 968 miles.
- Okay.
- Phoenix, 1,000
[WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY]

How's Ruby?
[SIGHS]
They booked her.
Uh, she
I mean, hopefully, she'll get better
Hey, Sam texted me.
Callum's still sick,
so I got another 24 off
- from undercover.
- Nice.
Mak's got that sleepover.
We could do something.
There's a new fusion place on Rush.
I don't know what the fusion
is, but Platt seems to like it
even if she doesn't know
what's being fused.
How 'bout therapy? [CHUCKLES]
- Is that a restaurant?
- [BOTH CHUCKLE]
Um, my therap my therapist
thinks it'd be a good idea
if you came in for a family session.
Okay, all right. Why?
I don't know.
It's up to you, kay? I can push her off.
I'm sure it's fine if we don't do it.
I mean, like, come on.
I don't really think
it's gonna do anything.
It's okay.
Let's go.
Let's go do therapy.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
Was it that hard of a question?
Oh, you're looking at me?
Oh.
I'm not trying to be
a problem or anything.
My mind's just kind of blank,
you know what I mean?
That's okay.
You two might be the same like that.
It's not easy to confront that something
might've affected your life,
your relationship
without your consent your control.
See, I don't think that the PTS has
affected our relationship.
- I mean
- Yeah.
Kim and I, we've been through plenty
had fights, you know, been out of sync,
but we worked through it.
We'll work through this too.
What do you mean by "out of sync"?
[CHUCKLES]
I don't know. I mean, you know
Maybe there were some times
where I maybe I
