Major Crimes s06e04 Episode Script
Sanctuary City: Part 4
1 Previously on "Major Crimes" SYKES: Three teenage boys go missing from a school field trip, then one of them winds up back at school, dead.
We found Lucas Garza's body at a Catholic church.
You know who hangs out at Catholic churches? Priests.
Father Jonas tried to stop me from looking into the locker of Ryan Rojas.
Where in Mexico is Father Jonas? I can't say.
Maybe Dr.
Garza found out his wife was having an affair with Father Casanova and blamed his son.
Mateo received a very angry phone call from a Marvin Garret.
Marvin Garret, you're under arrest.
What'd you do, you bastard? What did you do to my son?! None of these questions matter while Miguel and Ryan are still missing.
And if they're alive, they're my number-one suspects.
Earlier today, Miguel Diaz and Ryan Rojas have been found in Mexico.
Questions remain.
Were they victims or perpetrators? I want a court order removing Ryan and Miguel from FBI custody.
[ GASPS .]
- [ GASPING .]
- Sharon? - My God.
- Sharon! Oh, my FLYNN: Sharon! [ HEART BEATING ERRATICALLY .]
[ INDISTINCT, ECHOING CONVERSATIONS .]
FLYNN: [ ECHOING .]
Sharon? Sharon, can you hear me? Sharon, you fainted.
Are you okay? [ DOOR OPENS .]
SYKES: Um, she's over here.
Uh, over here on the floor.
Hurry! Hurry, damn it! Hurry! WOMAN: What's her name? Commander.
Sharon.
Her name is Sharon.
Sharon, âcan you tell me what hurts? It's gonna be okay, Sharon.
Does she have any conditions we should know about? Well, uh uh, she had the flu a couple of weeks ago, but she's been getting better.
1, 2, 3.
FLYNN: Get in your cars and lead this ambulance.
Three sets of sirens are better than one.
I'm leaving with her.
PROVENZA: [ ECHOING .]
All right.
Let us know how she is as soon as you can.
[ ECHOING .]
You got it.
Is she She's none of your damn business is what she is, unless you're going to answer her question.
Where are those boys? Sir, âwe're not authorized to Then get the hell out of our Murder Room.
Oh, do you need a hand? Here.
Let me help.
Are you serious, Lieutenant? This is not helping Are you going to suggest to me how we should do things here after you went behind our back, after you endangered the lives of this division? - Come on.
We - Chief Mason, I want these bastards out of our Murder Room right now.
Lieutenant, come on.
Let's go.
You don't know me, but believe this if the lieutenant wants you lying sons of bitches out of here, that's what will happen.
MASON: Special Agents Vega, Fey, before you leave, in my office, please.
Lieutenant Provenza, you're in charge here.
Excuse me.
Okay.
So, now what do we do? We hope that Sharon âis just dehydrated or exhausted.
And we we get briefed in the only way possible.
WOMAN: From the moment the St.
Joseph's Three went missing until just a few hours ago, authorities have been able to produce only one thing questions.
MAN: Anxious parents are eager to see their children.
The Diaz family is evidently leaving for the FBI a chance to reunite with their son.
Our source in the FBI has informed us that Ryan and Miguel were found in Mexico in what increasingly looks like a hoax gone wrong.
What we know for certain is that neither boy was considered physically harmed.
Or admitted to a hospital.
WOMAN: We need âan E.
R.
doctor immediately! She lost consciousness and hit her head.
Happened 30 minutes ago.
E.
R.
NURSE: You can take her to critical bay number 2.
- I'm okay.
- Sir, âI know that this is hard.
- Please wait out here while we help her.
- I'm her husband.
Okay, sorry, âbut we don't allow family to Also, I have one of these.
WOMAN: We've contacted Rosarito police, who had been holding Ryan and Miguel in custody for several days on suspicion of trafficking drugs.
But the Mexican authorities did not explain why they delivered the boys to the FBI, and the death of Lucas Garza has not been mentioned.
Ms.
Rojas, have you been in contact with the FBI about your son? DANIELLA: Please move! I don't want to hit you! Was your son involved with the death of Lucas Garza? Were your son and his friends with anyone else? Was anyone else involved?! Yes, Father Jonas is in Mexico, doing unrelated missionary work very far away from Rosarito, where these two boys were found in the custody of the local authorities and, as I understand it, in possession of a large amount of opioids.
It is very irresponsible under the circumstances to suggest Father Jonas or the Church had anything to do with the disappearance of these boys, whom we can only assume are lucky to be alive and in the safe hands of the American government.
He means the FBI, who have had those boys now for over 24 hours without sharing jack.
Don't expect them to be overflowing with human kindness after the way you threw them out.
With Major Crimes temporarily under your command And as my first official act, I'd like to say what a terrible idea this joint task force with the FBI turned out to be.
They did nothing but lie, withhold information, act superior.
It was outrageous and unprofessional and probably contributed to the collapse of Sharon Raydor, who, by the way, âis still undergoing tests while we stand here.
Are you done complaining? Don't ask the impossible.
At least the FBI found these boys.
I don't see a report on my desk with your names on it saying you even âlooked for them in Mexico.
Rosarito dropped them in their laps.
It had nothing to do with the FBI's investigation.
Plus, the FBI let us antagonize the Church by not sharing crucial information while we were serving exhumation orders.
We raided Marvin Garret's white-pride clubhouse and could've ended up in a shootout with his crazy, unhyphenated friends.
I've addressed the FBI about their behavior, and they've addressed us about ours.
From now on, âlet's aim for civility, huh? PAIGE: Goes both ways, Chief.
We should've known the boys were found immediately and been included in notifications and interviews.
Memories get fuzzy, becoming memories of memories even after a day.
And the first interviews with missing kids are hugely important.
Or the first interviews with suspects.
TAO: They knew Lucas was a diabetic.
Keeping him from his insulin during a drug-trafficking scheme, that's felony murder.
Which means Miguel and Ryan are our business, not the FBI's.
Which is why, if you'd give me a moment to explain, the FBI agreed to pass them directly to us instead of releasing them to their parents, along with all copies of notes pertaining to their interviews.
Contact the bureau about the transfer.
Probably best to let someone else make that call, Lieutenant.
Thank you.
- Wha Uh - [ DOOR CLOSES .]
Lieutenant, I'll talk to Vega.
No, actually, I'll talk to Fey, uh, make sure we set up the transfer of those boys back to us properly.
Wish the FBI did video interviews.
Well, maybe the notes will help us.
Cami, everyone needs to study the notes that the FBI took - in the interviews with Ryan and Miguel.
- [ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS .]
Each word those boys uttered could be an opportunity to catch them in a lie.
I'll keep going through the laptop we found at Marvin's place.
Now, if he forcibly tried to deport those boys to Mexico But does Marvin have anything to do with the opioids? The news said that Mexican authorities found o Wait, wait, look, I will come up with the questions.
Your job is to assemble some answers.
I'll be back after I see the commander.
[ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS .]
Okay.
Uh, they already did, like, an EKG or an EEG or maybe both and an MRI.
All of that for the flu? Doctor said it was standard.
Oh.
Oh, well, I-I'm sure that they saw her insurance and realized that she could afford every expensive exam in the book.
But don't you worry about it 'cause I've had all those tests myself.
And look at me.
[ KNOCK ON DOOR .]
[ MONITOR BEEPING .]
[ GASPS .]
Lieutenant! You didn't need to come all the way down here.
Aw, Commander, you certainly seem to be better âthan when I last saw you.
So, uh, have you gotten a diagnosis yet? No.
We're waiting for the doctor.
To tell us what we already know, which is she had the flu, she works too much, and she needed some rest.
What's going on with the case? Sharon, you're off the clock.
But I'm curious.
Well, the FBI is turning over the boys to us, and, uh, we want to transport them to PAB without the parents knowing.
Well, maybe I can get back before you talk to them.
- Oh, my God.
Mom.
- What? Sharon, you'll need a physician to sign off on whether you can go back to work or not because them's the rules.
The rules, Mom.
The rules.
PROVENZA: Look, the boys are alive, and they've already told their story once to the FBI.
We're just going to confirm the details.
Do any of the details include why the boys left âthe field trip to begin with or where they were going? Uh, not that I know of.
But Nolan and Paige have been checking every special event advertised in that area on that day.
So far, there's no event that a kid would describe as "the coolest thing.
" Uh, mind if I talk to my patient? - Sharon Raydor? - Yes, that would be me.
Hi.
I'm Dr.
Carson Jacobs.
- Hello.
- âHello.
Your internist, Dr.
Evans, asked me to look at the results - of all your tests.
- âRight.
Uh, if I could just talk to you alone for a minute? I'm her son.
I'm her husband.
Well, almost.
And I am her esteemed colleague.
Colleagues are definitely leaving.
Children, leaving, and unmarried partners are also leaving.
You want me to hold that for you while you wait outside? SHARON: Andy, it's okay.
I-I promise I'll brief you all when I'm done.
âOkay.
Fine.
But if you tell me that the doctor said you can go back to work, then I'm gonna Flynn.
Flynn, we've been asked to leave.
So, uh, good luck, and I will talk to you later today.
It's gonna be fine.
Got some willing advocates there.
Yes, well, âI think that they would take the hospital's side over mine.
So, doctor, have you been able to figure out âwhat's going on with me? Yeah, I have.
[ CLEARS THROAT .]
And, uh, it's more than just difficulty recovering from the flu or a bump on the head.
What I'm about to tell you is gonna initially sound upsetting, but we have ways âof dealing with this problem, and we've caught it so soon that I think, no matter what, you'll end up in a good place.
[ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS .]
Why can't I go home? Ryan, we know you and Miguel have been through a lot.
We just have a few questions.
We've been working really hard to find you guys, but before we can release you to your parents, there's important stuff we're required to ask you by law.
It's just telling us what happened to you and especially to Lucas.
The FBI said Lucas was found in St.
Joseph's in a flower bed.
- [ GROANS .]
The FBI.
- SYKES: The FBI told you that? They couldn't just say he was found dead.
- I can't believe it.
- No, no.
They had to give the circumstances.
Wonderful.
It was, you know, upsetting.
And crazy.
Like, he couldn't see how things could ever go wrong.
Turn Miguel up.
The whole thing was his idea.
What whole thing? Where was Lucas taking you? We already told the FBI we don't know, okay? We don't know where Lucas was taking us.
He just told us he had the greatest surprise ever, and we trusted him.
SYKES: Surprise? What kind of surprise? He said we'd find out Thursday morning if we'd slip off with him on the field trip.
So we agreed to go when Lucas told us to.
And in the museum, about an hour before lunch, Lucas says our ride is waiting and to hurry.
And we'll be back before anyone knows we're gone.
Back from where? I don't know back from where.
I've already Well, so far, âtheir stories are matching up to all the notes the FBI made.
Well, they've had eight days to practice.
Who was your ride? If I knew, I'd tell you.
Well, we started running to this, like, green curb between the museum and science center.
And Lucas was just laughing and saying, "Check this out.
" And it's a black limo, and Lucas just had this look on his face like, "How dope is this?" And he says it's gonna take us someplace awesome, so we get in.
"Someplace awesome.
" Where? Still no idea.
Because then we're inside the limo, and You know that thing between where we sit and the driver, - the partition? - âMm-hmm.
Well, suddenly, that thing comes down, and a dude's arm comes in from the driver's seat, and he has some kind of mask on his face.
And he's spraying stuff at us from a hose.
It stung and tasted chemically.
SANCHEZ: What kind of chemical? I don't know, but we we tried to get out, - but the doors were locked.
- [ DOOR BEEPS .]
And the next thing I know, Ryan went down.
- How the hell could they still - And then I went down - not know where they were going? - and I guess Lucas went down.
And I was thinking The last thing I was thinking, "We're dead.
" - SYKES: And then what? - And then I woke up.
Could've been days later.
It was pitch black.
I was on the floor.
But then, after a second, I realized I wasn't actually on the floor.
I was on the ground.
I was outside, and Miguel was just shaking me because he woke up first.
We waited till sunrise, and then we realized we were in the middle of the desert somewhere.
We looked for the limo, but we couldn't find it, so we started walking, like, looking for a road or something.
It was brutal.
So hot.
Our throats were just burning 'cause of the desert or the chemical stuff.
I don't know.
It was just brutal.
And where'd you walk? Just picked a way.
Found some house.
They gave us water, but that barely helped.
And after they found out we were Americans, we figured out we were in Mexico.
And after they called the policÃa, it only got worse.
They went through our backpacks, and they said they found drugs, but I never touched oxy in my life.
And I tried to explain, but I don't know if they wouldn't listen or they couldn't understand.
You don't speak Spanish? I understand it pretty well, but, no, I-I don't speak it.
Look, where are my parents? Are they Are we in trouble? Because you're undocumented? Does the whole world know about this? [ SIGHS .]
My dad must be pissed.
Well, âit's not word for word but it's in the same vicinity.
The biggest bullshit story I've ever heard.
You tell Sanchez to shift gears.
I mean, they had to have known where Lucas was taking them.
Or thought they knew.
Lieutenant Provenza wants you to start the pushback.
Miguel, I'm gonna let you in on a little secret.
That's a camera.
People in another room are watching us, and they're also watching detectives interview your friend Ryan.
And you see this in my ear? That's so they can let me know whether or not yours and Ryan's stories match up.
And guess what I just heard.
What? Ryan said the drugs belong to you.
What? No.
I don't believe it.
Think of it as a game of "Pin the Tail on the Dreamer Kid" who's about to get deported back to Mexico for drug trafficking.
No, Ryan wouldn't say that.
Somebody did this to us, and I know who.
That racist jerk who lives next to Miguel Marvin.
Miguel thinks he did this.
Marvin hates us.
Can't trip 'em up.
- Look, you guys, look.
- They might even be telling the truth.
PROVENZA: What about ol' Marv? How you coming âwith his immigrant directory? Well, we're still working through it.
Marvin finally made bail, and the FBI didn't charge him with anything else, so they really don't think he's involved with any kidnapping, either.
Ye gods.
Tao, it's the parents.
Where's Ryan? Uh, we were just about to call you.
Uh, Ryan and Miguel are undergoing routine questioning with the police.
If I don't see Miguel in one minute, I'm calling a lawyer.
TAO: Look, we're just trying to help.
If you want to call lawyers, then we'll arrest your kids, and you can see them in court tomorrow.
Or Or you could just sit and relax while we finish our initial review, and then we will arrange for each of you to have a very short visit with your kid.
MIGUEL: [ VOICE BREAKING .]
Mom, Dad, I'm so sorry.
WOMAN: No.
No.
Don't worry about sorry.
Well, now maybe we'll get someplace.
We don't care.
[ VOICE BREAKING .]
We were just so afraid that maybe Oh, thank God.
Thank God, baby.
Thank God.
Hey, hey, no, look.
We're just happy you're okay.
No, I-I'm not okay.
I'm not.
[ SIGHS .]
The police want to send us back to Mexico.
Y-You don't have to worry about that, either.
We have rights.
- This is our home.
- âNo.
No, not "us" as in you and me.
Uh, "us" as in me and Ryan, because Mexican police found drugs on us, but they weren't our drugs.
DANIELLA: You expect me to believe that? You don't know âwhere Lucas was taking you, and you wake up days later in Mexico with drugs in your I swear, Mom.
They planted all that stuff on us.
Oh, great.
Lawyer.
Ryan, lawyer, okay? - Don't say anything more - Ian, you wait outside.
Absolutely not.
He's my son, too.
Yeah? Well, a lawyer will only make him look guilty.
- Are you insane? That's not - No, you're insane for thinking you should even be here.
Daniella, there is no logic in what you're saying at all, okay? Ryan, my man, listen to me.
You have a right to an attorney.
Okay? âWould you guys stop?! And quit blaming me for this! I didn't kidnap myself.
Aha.
Now, this could get interesting.
No? Then who did? Who? [LAUGHS.]
Who Who would kidnap you? No one would've kidnapped you if you'd kept with the field trip.
Why didn't you stay at the museum, huh? No, a kidnapping involves a ransom, and this may be hard to hear, but you ain't got nobody to pay anything to get you back, unless, uh, Hector's friends, they had it out for you or something.
- Is that it? - I don't want to talk to you guys.
I want to talk to Father Jonas.
Neither of you guys know what happened to me.
Neither of you guys care.
You.
You! Whoa.
Me.
Me! Who would you blame if I wasn't around?! Bitch.
Ugh! Boy, did I ever choose the wrong day to pick up a girl on the beach.
We followed up with Mr.
Nuñez about his, uh, date.
Uh, Julio called the young lady and confirmed that he was with her the afternoon the boys went missing.
And that's about it.
So, Ryan wanted to talk to Father Jonas, but Miguel didn't mention Father Jonas - at all, did he? - âNo, ma'am.
Sharon, the doctor wanted you to rest.
I'm I'm home.
I'm sitting.
[ CHUCKLING .]
Okay, I'm done.
Um, Buzz, will you tell Lieutenant Provenza that I recommend arresting these boys? Mm.
For what? The murder of Lucas Garza.
Oh.
Uh, o-okay.
Sure.
And, Rusty, if you'd call Andrea and ask her to hold off arraigning Miguel and Ryan until tomorrow, please.
- So they're guilty.
- We'll see.
Feel better, Commander.
Thank you, Buzz.
Oh.
I'm I'm just going to write an e-mail to Lieutenant Provenza about this little idea I have, and then I am done.
And then can you tell me what the doctor said about everything? Yes.
Everything.
[ KEYBOARD CLACKING .]
[ SIGHS .]
FLYNN: Are you done? [ CHUCKLES .]
'Cause I'm getting more stressed by the second.
Hi.
[ SIGHS .]
So, uh what did the doctor say, I mean besides, come home and get some rest? Rest from what? I'm sorry, Andy.
I just needed a little time in there to sort sort out my feelings.
So, the good news is we have a diagnosis.
The bad news is âI have a heart condition.
Like mine? No, no, I have something called cardiomyopathy.
Oh, well, that's I mean, âthat's kind of a broad term.
I mean, âit could be nothing, right? Well, it's not nothing because it's a virus attacking the pericardium, which is the outer lining of my heart.
Now, the infection could remain in its current state, clear up, or develop.
And if things worsen, there are other steps.
There's surgery, um, transplant.
- Transplant?! - âOh, no, âwe're not even there yet.
We're not even close.
Andy.
In fact, I feel better already.
But until I know more, I think we should postpone the wedding.
[ VOICE BREAKING .]
It's not fair to you.
Absolutely not.
You think I'd let anything get in the way of becoming your husband? I want you to just think about this just for a second.
I don't need a second.
[ SIGHS .]
All right, Sharon.
I never told you this.
But when I was sick âand you helped me through it Mm.
no one's ever treated me that well.
And I don't know if I deserve it, and I don't know âwhy you care about me so much, but it's all I can do right now to wait until the ceremony to call you my wife and to be your husband.
And if we're not gonna let myheart get in the way of that, then, uh, we're not gonna let yours stop us, either.
- But what if I - All right, all right.
The only change we're gonna make is no honeymoon.
We don't go to Ireland until we understand exactly what it is you're up against.
Unless y-you changed your mind about us.
Have you changed your mind? No.
Andy [SNIFFLES.]
no.
I love you so, s-so much.
I just [ SNIFFLES .]
As long as you understand what I am dealing with here.
Whatwe'redealing with, okay? - Okay.
- âAll right.
So, let's start from where the doctor asked me to leave the room.
[ BOTH LAUGH .]
And, uh, you try to remember, word for word, what he said to you, okay? Word for word.
DR.
JOE: Everything I hear will be completely confidential.
To you, Ryan Rojas might be a suspect, but, to me, he's a patient who survived a very traumatic experience.
And as a psychologist, my first order of business is These boys want us to believe that they ran off with Lucas with absolutely no idea about where they were going.
Now, I don't know âif you know this, doctor, but teenagers tend to lie when they screw up.
So unlike adults.
HOBBS: It's a lie âhe's sticking to, Lieutenant, and I'm out on a limb charging these boys with murder.
Do you have any evidence? Oh, details, details.
Without details, âthe defense's star witness is going to be Dr.
Morales, who will say Lucas Garza died âof complications from diabetes.
- But - I know.
I know.
The killer or killers may have starved Lucas to make his murder seem like natural causes.
The boys were found with opioids.
But you don't have alibis for Dr.
Garza or Father Jonas, who's proving as difficult to find as the boys were.
And, frankly, I am worried that, âwith the commander out sick, there isn't a real plan here.
I find that offensive, Hobbs.
I have been a detective for 40 years.
I know exactly what I'm doing.
Besides all that, âthis is the commander's plan, including having Dr.
Joe talk to Ryan about his issues.
What issues? His stepfather fell off the balcony of their condo and died.
Or maybe he was pushed.
BUZZ: And Ryan's natural father has an alibi, but he's still a sociopath.
And Kelly Garret said Ryan's only just starting to talk about being gay and that he has a crush on Miguel.
Wait.
Let's assume âwhat Ryan told us is true.
He's sprayed with a chemical agent, loses consciousness, wakes up âin the middle of a desert, is thrown in a Mexican jail because drugs were planted on him, is rescued only to find one of his best friends is dead.
All that spells a week of severe trauma.
So what's another day? And now we should assume that it didn't go down like Miguel and Ryan said because they conveniently don't remember anything that happened between the time âthey disappeared and woke up.
BUZZ: And they can't even explain why they were leaving the field trip, beyond everything being Lucas' idea.
Ah, Lucas.
Lucas, who is conveniently dead.
Doctor, that's why we need you to catch Ryan âin just one, little lie.
That will give us Lieutenant, my job is to talk to this boy privately, no listening in, âand assess his mental fitness.
It's your job to catch him in lies.
Sorry.
Sorry.
âI was pushing the envelope.
So, uh, why don't you set up in the commander's office, and we will send send Ryan in? Julio.
Daniella Rojas âis in Interview Room Number 1 like you wanted, Lieutenant.
I printed up some information on witness and victim's rights for her to read.
Patrol's outside the door, so she's not going anywhere.
Good.
Good, Julio.
Just be ready to grab her.
Sykes, why don't you bring Ryan in? And now we'll see if the commander's plan works.
RYAN: What the hell is this about? Are you another cop or what? - FBI again? - âNo.
My name's Dr.
Joe Bowman.
You can call me Dr.
Joe if you want.
I've already been looked at by doctors.
He's a different kind of doctor, Ryan.
A psychologist.
Let us know when you're done.
PROVENZA: Okay, Buzz.
Far as we can go.
Are we really allowed to be watching this? The law says no listening.
It doesn't say anything about watching.
Keep it muted, and we're fine.
But won't Dr.
Joe be angry? Buzz, we're doing this for Dr.
Joe's safety.
He's in there with a murder suspect, and he's unarmed.
RYAN: So, you're really not a cop? You have to say if I ask, don't you? That's only on TV, but have you ever seen a cop in a sweater vest? Everything you tell me is privileged.
Do you know that term? Yeah.
âLike what I say in confession.
But I've already answered every question people could think of.
Did they ask how you feel? Ryan, let's start with Lucas.
One of your very best friends is dead.
How are you holding up? Honestly? It's It's hard to believe.
I mean sometimes, I think it's true.
Sometimes, I think it just couldn't have happened.
[ VOICE BREAKING .]
I can't Lucas not being here anymore [ SNIFFLES .]
Dr.
Joe might be making headway.
- [ DOOR OPENS .]
- PROVENZA: Might be.
Yeah, well, whatever.
I'm losing interest in this silent movie.
Have you guys finished with Marvin's illegal-immigrant directory? Uh, yeah, cross-referenced all the crime reports with all of the addresses that Marvin kept tabs on.
At half the locations, there have been acts of vandalism uh, rocks through windows, slashed tires.
Well, someone could argue that's random.
Anything suggesting hate crimes? Well, that depends on how you interpret "get out of my country" spray-painted on your front door, which appeared at 31 different addresses.
- Sykes.
- âHmm? What are you thinking? The whole drug-trafficking issue.
Um, I just checked.
Lucas had no opioids hidden in his backpack anywhere.
I just thought we were going for a surprise, you know, like we've done a billion times before, just the three of us.
We just trusted Lucas knew what was going on.
Where is everyone? I'm sure âthey're not listening in.
That would be so against the rules.
[ CHUCKLING .]
Lieutenant.
Commander.
Oh, everything's off.
All by the book.
- Just watching.
- [ DOOR CLOSES .]
Not illegal.
So, have you learned anything? [ CLEARS THROAT .]
No.
No.
Not yet.
But, Commander, uh, welcome back.
Sometimes a crime which is what happened to you is unrelated âto our daily lives, random.
And sometimes crimes happen inside families, like with your stepdad, for instance Hector.
He hit you, right? He hurt you? Yeah.
He hit me.
And that's a crime, though he may have said it was your fault, that he was beating you for a reason.
Is that what happened? Why did Hector say he was hurting you? He said it was because of the way I am, things I did.
You think Hector You think Hector had something to do with this? I mean, what happened to Hector? Is that why Lucas died? I don't know.
Is it? [ DOOR OPENS .]
You guys need to put a sign out here or something.
Looks like âyou're taking the day off.
And I have news.
[ DOOR CLOSES .]
Do you ever talk about Hector and what he was doing to you to anyone, somebody at school maybe? I told Father Jonas âHector punched me a few times.
But I also said reporting it would only make things worse.
Because of Hector's gang connections? He said Hector said if I told on him, him and his friends would take care of me for good and my mom.
That had to be scary stuff to handle on your own.
How did you manage it? [ SNIFFLES .]
[ SOBBING QUIETLY .]
The substance found on Lucas Garza's shirt was chloroform? MORALES: That's right.
Once you told me the boys were sprayed with something, I made âNo, no, no, theyclaimed that they were sprayed.
- We have no proof of that.
- Whatever.
I made a list of fast-acting anesthetics that could be delivered via aerosol and found a match from that list on Lucas' shirt chloroform.
Yes, but the issue is that But, doctor, all that confirms is that Lucas was sprayed with chloroform.
We can't test Ryan and Miguel's clothes because they were left somewhere in the Rosarito Police Department.
Detective Paige, thank you for your boundless enthusiasm.
Doctor, also, the boys complained about burning throats.
Chloroform would not do that at all.
Now, supposing that their ridiculous story was true and we could find this fantasy limo, would chloroform still be present? If you ran across the limo within the next 600 days, yes.
And, personally, I think the limo is real.
Holy crap! It says here oxycodone was in Lucas' blood? Ohh.
Spoiler alert.
But, yes, based on the fact that the other boys were found with opioids, I screened Lucas' blood for oxy, and there it was.
Lethal amount? No, Lucas still died from ketoacidosis, but there was more than enough oxy to keep him unconscious after the chloroform wore off.
Which could make the drugs a contributory cause of death.
Maybe Dr.
Garza had another stash of pills somewhere Lucas found.
Uh, Lieutenant, you wanted to know if Ryan got really emotional.
Oh.
Wonderful, Buzz.
Thank you.
And I will text Julio that he's on.
Daniella.
I'm sorry to interrupt you, but your son needs you, ma'am.
Oh.
Commander.
I hope you didn't rush back for my assessment.
I'm nowhere near done.
Well, your conversation with Ryan is not the one âwe're interested in, doctor.
You were eavesdropping? We just watched.
Well, but now, we're going to listen.
Buzz? SANCHEZ: I'll be standing outside the door.
Knock if you need me.
[ DOOR CLOSES .]
They won't stop asking all these questions.
They want to know everything.
Well, w-what do you mean, everything? PROVENZA: Okay, boyo.
You're all worked up.
Now just let it out.
You used me âto get Ryan emotional enough to break down like this? I'm not here to loosen the jar for you, Lieutenant.
You can get back to your assessment in a moment, doctor.
Tell me what, Ryan? Tell me what? Oh, God.
I'm going to hell.
I'm going to hell.
- I want to talk to Father Jonas.
- âOkay, okay.
- I want to talk to Father Jonas.
- âOkay, okay.
We all want to talk to Father Jonas, kid.
Okay.
Listen.
He's coming back to L.
A.
tomorrow.
He's worried about you, Ryan.
Whoa.
That's news.
I-I'll find a way for you two to talk.
Our priest was in touch with Daniella Rojas? We need to find Jonas before she does.
Cover airports, bus stations, and train stations.
And given the confirmed use of opioids, I think it's time to release Lucas' body to his parents with the autopsy report.
If you're all through, I'd like to finish helping out the boy.
Of course, doctor.
That's why you're here.
[ DOOR OPENS .]
Opioids in Lucas Garza's blood.
But not in his backpack.
So it's cardio cardio what? Cardiomyopathy.
- [ CELLPHONE KEYBOARD CLICKING .]
- myopathy.
The disease varies from person to person, so not everything you read online is going to "The disease can have no symptoms and require no treatment or develop quickly âwith serious complications.
" How do we know which version you have? We don't.
Not yet.
But we will.
Dr.
Jacobs is a very experienced cardiologist, and he told me that most people die with this disease, not from this disease.
Well, what can I do to help? Accept the full undercover security detail that the L.
A.
P.
D.
is recommending.
It would take a lot of stress off my heart, I am sure.
Wow.
I mean, I-I know it's your job to make people feel guilty enough to take a deal, but wow.
All right.
I will accept the security detail, but I still want âthe concealed-weapon permit.
The gun is your last resort.
Your first option is your security detail.
Thank you for agreeing to this.
Means a lot to me.
Um, do you remember, Rusty, that we invited Gus to the wedding? Oh, God, he's He won't come.
Well, he R.
S.
V.
P.
'd yes.
That was two months ago.
He's not coming.
We We're not even talking to each other.
You don't think that Gus is coming to the wedding, do you? He ordered the salmon.
Uh, Ryan Rojas and Miguel Diaz are about to be arraigned.
- Do you want to be there? - Yes.
Uh, Mom.
My phone.
Oh, my goodness.
Sorry.
We will, um, talk about this later, okay? I don't want you to worry about me.
Things will work out the way they're meant to be.
Okay? MATEO: Why do we have to sign Miranda rights to pick up our son's body? Short answer? Because lawyers.
FLYNN: You're no stranger to bureaucracy, doctor.
Insurance companies probably force you to jump through more hoops than we do.
- Really? - âYes.
I'm sorry.
In addition, we need you to sign a form acknowledging that you've read the autopsy report, which is here.
Are there photographs in there - because I-I don't think that - FLYNN: No pictures.
The D.
A.
spared us that.
Just stuff you have to read.
Happy to be thrown under the bus if it helps.
MATEO: Why do Miguel and Ryan say they're not guilty? I mean, you arrested them.
You must have proof they did this.
It may surprise you, but most murderers plead not guilty.
I don't even like seeing Lucas' name in this.
We're sorry, ma'am.
You're almost finished.
All you have left is the lab report and the tox screen.
Is that âIs that really necessary? Unfortunately, we need to see each of you complete a review.
And then we need to fill out a form saying we witnessed the review, and if we don't do that, well, it's just one big thing.
W-Well, this this can't be right.
Why does it say that there was oxycodone in Lucas' blood? FLYNN: Uh, Miguel and Ryan were found in possession of oxy in Mexico.
Medical examiner screened Lucas' blood for They had oxy? I thought pot maybe, but they had oxy? Where did that get oxy from? - Where would they get it, huh? - Hang on, Sara.
Where would they get it? They They didn't get it from me.
Where would they get it? Sara, this is not the time to have this conversation.
- Oh, really? - âYes, really! Look.
âI am 100 percent positive - You can't be sure! - Yes, I can because Dr.
Garza, is there something we should know? They couldn't.
They couldn't have taken the oxy from me because I know exactly how much I have.
You have? You're using again? Yeah, I screwed up.
I'm sorry.
But, look, I-I'll tell you exactly how much oxy I've Don't look at me that way, Sara! Let me finish! Okay? I'll check out how much oxy I have put away and see if Lucas and his friends have taken any of it.
They haven't, but I think we'd like to check out that oxy with you, doctor.
Go talk to my lawyer.
Sara! PROVENZA: Maybe âthat's the way it happened.
Miguel and Ryan use âDr.
Garza's oxy with Lucas.
Lucas passes out, âcan't give himself insulin, ends up dead.
Now Miguel and Ryan try to cover it up.
They panic, run off to Mexico, and make up this bullshit story.
Or Lucas learned his dad was using again and threatened to tell his mother.
Garza could lose his practice, his marriage, all his money.
He could lose his practice, yes.
Well, does anyone think that's enough to kill your own kid? - [ DOOR OPENS .]
- SYKES: Uh, I don't know how he got back into the country, but the SIS team surveilling St.
Joseph's reported Father Jonas just showed up.
You want them to grab him? Father Jonas.
Welcome home.
You have a nice trip, asshole? Why would you speak to me like that, Lieutenant? How about you ran âfrom a murder investigation? I left to protect my vows.
Yeah, that's what all the single mothers you slept with said, too.
You were very concerned about your vows.
How did you get back into the U.
S.
from Mexico? That's between me and the Church.
You two share a lot of very personal secrets, don't you? Lieutenant Flynn, would you please escort Father Jonas to our Visitors Conference Center? Sure.
Right this way, your somewhat holiness.
Father Jonas' obsession with Ryan continues.
Or is it his obsession with Ryan's mother? You said that she and Jonas looked close.
[ FOOTSTEPS APPROACH .]
Chief, are you here to listen to our interview with Father Jonas? No.
I'm coming to tell you that you've got another crime scene.
[ SIREN WAILS .]
When he came back to work, the doctor seemed upset, locked himself in his office.
[ VOICE BREAKING .]
A few hours later, I went to give him his call sheet, and [ DOOR BUZZES .]
PROVENZA: After finding the body, did either of you touch anything? Yes, I did.
âI came in after Cora yelled.
Uh, she was dialing 911 from the desk phone.
I tried the naloxone.
I started carrying it after his first trip to rehab.
Did chest compressions, but I was too late.
We haven't called his family.
We'll take care of that.
Uh, if you would please go with Detective Paige, she'll escort you into the hallway.
Thank you.
Thank you, doctor.
Hmm.
Yeah, he's got a big bruise across his forehead.
Open bottle of oxy.
Overdose maybe? He could've passed out, hit his head on the desk.
Garza felt âthe walls closing in on him.
The guilt probably caught up with him.
This guy did not kill himself because he murdered his son.
Well, you don't know that, Julio.
Killing your son is not a Mexican Catholic crime, sir.
Well, not everyone conforms to stereotypes.
The truth is The truth is All right, give him a second, Lieutenant.
- He's just frustrated.
- Yeah.
Well, I agree with him about one thing.
As a solution to a murder it doesn't get any worse than this.
We found Lucas Garza's body at a Catholic church.
You know who hangs out at Catholic churches? Priests.
Father Jonas tried to stop me from looking into the locker of Ryan Rojas.
Where in Mexico is Father Jonas? I can't say.
Maybe Dr.
Garza found out his wife was having an affair with Father Casanova and blamed his son.
Mateo received a very angry phone call from a Marvin Garret.
Marvin Garret, you're under arrest.
What'd you do, you bastard? What did you do to my son?! None of these questions matter while Miguel and Ryan are still missing.
And if they're alive, they're my number-one suspects.
Earlier today, Miguel Diaz and Ryan Rojas have been found in Mexico.
Questions remain.
Were they victims or perpetrators? I want a court order removing Ryan and Miguel from FBI custody.
[ GASPS .]
- [ GASPING .]
- Sharon? - My God.
- Sharon! Oh, my FLYNN: Sharon! [ HEART BEATING ERRATICALLY .]
[ INDISTINCT, ECHOING CONVERSATIONS .]
FLYNN: [ ECHOING .]

Are you okay? [ DOOR OPENS .]
SYKES: Um, she's over here.
Uh, over here on the floor.
Hurry! Hurry, damn it! Hurry! WOMAN: What's her name? Commander.
Sharon.
Her name is Sharon.
Sharon, âcan you tell me what hurts? It's gonna be okay, Sharon.
Does she have any conditions we should know about? Well, uh uh, she had the flu a couple of weeks ago, but she's been getting better.
1, 2, 3.
FLYNN: Get in your cars and lead this ambulance.
Three sets of sirens are better than one.
I'm leaving with her.
PROVENZA: [ ECHOING .]
All right.
Let us know how she is as soon as you can.
[ ECHOING .]
You got it.
Is she She's none of your damn business is what she is, unless you're going to answer her question.
Where are those boys? Sir, âwe're not authorized to Then get the hell out of our Murder Room.
Oh, do you need a hand? Here.
Let me help.
Are you serious, Lieutenant? This is not helping Are you going to suggest to me how we should do things here after you went behind our back, after you endangered the lives of this division? - Come on.
We - Chief Mason, I want these bastards out of our Murder Room right now.
Lieutenant, come on.
Let's go.
You don't know me, but believe this if the lieutenant wants you lying sons of bitches out of here, that's what will happen.
MASON: Special Agents Vega, Fey, before you leave, in my office, please.
Lieutenant Provenza, you're in charge here.
Excuse me.
Okay.
So, now what do we do? We hope that Sharon âis just dehydrated or exhausted.
And we we get briefed in the only way possible.
WOMAN: From the moment the St.
Joseph's Three went missing until just a few hours ago, authorities have been able to produce only one thing questions.
MAN: Anxious parents are eager to see their children.
The Diaz family is evidently leaving for the FBI a chance to reunite with their son.
Our source in the FBI has informed us that Ryan and Miguel were found in Mexico in what increasingly looks like a hoax gone wrong.
What we know for certain is that neither boy was considered physically harmed.
Or admitted to a hospital.
WOMAN: We need âan E.
R.
doctor immediately! She lost consciousness and hit her head.
Happened 30 minutes ago.
E.
R.
NURSE: You can take her to critical bay number 2.
- I'm okay.
- Sir, âI know that this is hard.
- Please wait out here while we help her.
- I'm her husband.
Okay, sorry, âbut we don't allow family to Also, I have one of these.
WOMAN: We've contacted Rosarito police, who had been holding Ryan and Miguel in custody for several days on suspicion of trafficking drugs.
But the Mexican authorities did not explain why they delivered the boys to the FBI, and the death of Lucas Garza has not been mentioned.
Ms.
Rojas, have you been in contact with the FBI about your son? DANIELLA: Please move! I don't want to hit you! Was your son involved with the death of Lucas Garza? Were your son and his friends with anyone else? Was anyone else involved?! Yes, Father Jonas is in Mexico, doing unrelated missionary work very far away from Rosarito, where these two boys were found in the custody of the local authorities and, as I understand it, in possession of a large amount of opioids.
It is very irresponsible under the circumstances to suggest Father Jonas or the Church had anything to do with the disappearance of these boys, whom we can only assume are lucky to be alive and in the safe hands of the American government.
He means the FBI, who have had those boys now for over 24 hours without sharing jack.
Don't expect them to be overflowing with human kindness after the way you threw them out.
With Major Crimes temporarily under your command And as my first official act, I'd like to say what a terrible idea this joint task force with the FBI turned out to be.
They did nothing but lie, withhold information, act superior.
It was outrageous and unprofessional and probably contributed to the collapse of Sharon Raydor, who, by the way, âis still undergoing tests while we stand here.
Are you done complaining? Don't ask the impossible.
At least the FBI found these boys.
I don't see a report on my desk with your names on it saying you even âlooked for them in Mexico.
Rosarito dropped them in their laps.
It had nothing to do with the FBI's investigation.
Plus, the FBI let us antagonize the Church by not sharing crucial information while we were serving exhumation orders.
We raided Marvin Garret's white-pride clubhouse and could've ended up in a shootout with his crazy, unhyphenated friends.
I've addressed the FBI about their behavior, and they've addressed us about ours.
From now on, âlet's aim for civility, huh? PAIGE: Goes both ways, Chief.
We should've known the boys were found immediately and been included in notifications and interviews.
Memories get fuzzy, becoming memories of memories even after a day.
And the first interviews with missing kids are hugely important.
Or the first interviews with suspects.
TAO: They knew Lucas was a diabetic.
Keeping him from his insulin during a drug-trafficking scheme, that's felony murder.
Which means Miguel and Ryan are our business, not the FBI's.
Which is why, if you'd give me a moment to explain, the FBI agreed to pass them directly to us instead of releasing them to their parents, along with all copies of notes pertaining to their interviews.
Contact the bureau about the transfer.
Probably best to let someone else make that call, Lieutenant.
Thank you.
- Wha Uh - [ DOOR CLOSES .]
Lieutenant, I'll talk to Vega.
No, actually, I'll talk to Fey, uh, make sure we set up the transfer of those boys back to us properly.
Wish the FBI did video interviews.
Well, maybe the notes will help us.
Cami, everyone needs to study the notes that the FBI took - in the interviews with Ryan and Miguel.
- [ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS .]
Each word those boys uttered could be an opportunity to catch them in a lie.
I'll keep going through the laptop we found at Marvin's place.
Now, if he forcibly tried to deport those boys to Mexico But does Marvin have anything to do with the opioids? The news said that Mexican authorities found o Wait, wait, look, I will come up with the questions.
Your job is to assemble some answers.
I'll be back after I see the commander.
[ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS .]
Okay.
Uh, they already did, like, an EKG or an EEG or maybe both and an MRI.
All of that for the flu? Doctor said it was standard.
Oh.
Oh, well, I-I'm sure that they saw her insurance and realized that she could afford every expensive exam in the book.
But don't you worry about it 'cause I've had all those tests myself.
And look at me.
[ KNOCK ON DOOR .]
[ MONITOR BEEPING .]
[ GASPS .]
Lieutenant! You didn't need to come all the way down here.
Aw, Commander, you certainly seem to be better âthan when I last saw you.
So, uh, have you gotten a diagnosis yet? No.
We're waiting for the doctor.
To tell us what we already know, which is she had the flu, she works too much, and she needed some rest.
What's going on with the case? Sharon, you're off the clock.
But I'm curious.
Well, the FBI is turning over the boys to us, and, uh, we want to transport them to PAB without the parents knowing.
Well, maybe I can get back before you talk to them.
- Oh, my God.
Mom.
- What? Sharon, you'll need a physician to sign off on whether you can go back to work or not because them's the rules.
The rules, Mom.
The rules.
PROVENZA: Look, the boys are alive, and they've already told their story once to the FBI.
We're just going to confirm the details.
Do any of the details include why the boys left âthe field trip to begin with or where they were going? Uh, not that I know of.
But Nolan and Paige have been checking every special event advertised in that area on that day.
So far, there's no event that a kid would describe as "the coolest thing.
" Uh, mind if I talk to my patient? - Sharon Raydor? - Yes, that would be me.
Hi.
I'm Dr.
Carson Jacobs.
- Hello.
- âHello.
Your internist, Dr.
Evans, asked me to look at the results - of all your tests.
- âRight.
Uh, if I could just talk to you alone for a minute? I'm her son.
I'm her husband.
Well, almost.
And I am her esteemed colleague.
Colleagues are definitely leaving.
Children, leaving, and unmarried partners are also leaving.
You want me to hold that for you while you wait outside? SHARON: Andy, it's okay.
I-I promise I'll brief you all when I'm done.
âOkay.
Fine.
But if you tell me that the doctor said you can go back to work, then I'm gonna Flynn.
Flynn, we've been asked to leave.
So, uh, good luck, and I will talk to you later today.
It's gonna be fine.
Got some willing advocates there.
Yes, well, âI think that they would take the hospital's side over mine.
So, doctor, have you been able to figure out âwhat's going on with me? Yeah, I have.
[ CLEARS THROAT .]
And, uh, it's more than just difficulty recovering from the flu or a bump on the head.
What I'm about to tell you is gonna initially sound upsetting, but we have ways âof dealing with this problem, and we've caught it so soon that I think, no matter what, you'll end up in a good place.
[ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS .]
Why can't I go home? Ryan, we know you and Miguel have been through a lot.
We just have a few questions.
We've been working really hard to find you guys, but before we can release you to your parents, there's important stuff we're required to ask you by law.
It's just telling us what happened to you and especially to Lucas.
The FBI said Lucas was found in St.
Joseph's in a flower bed.
- [ GROANS .]
The FBI.
- SYKES: The FBI told you that? They couldn't just say he was found dead.
- I can't believe it.
- No, no.
They had to give the circumstances.
Wonderful.
It was, you know, upsetting.
And crazy.
Like, he couldn't see how things could ever go wrong.
Turn Miguel up.
The whole thing was his idea.
What whole thing? Where was Lucas taking you? We already told the FBI we don't know, okay? We don't know where Lucas was taking us.
He just told us he had the greatest surprise ever, and we trusted him.
SYKES: Surprise? What kind of surprise? He said we'd find out Thursday morning if we'd slip off with him on the field trip.
So we agreed to go when Lucas told us to.
And in the museum, about an hour before lunch, Lucas says our ride is waiting and to hurry.
And we'll be back before anyone knows we're gone.
Back from where? I don't know back from where.
I've already Well, so far, âtheir stories are matching up to all the notes the FBI made.
Well, they've had eight days to practice.
Who was your ride? If I knew, I'd tell you.
Well, we started running to this, like, green curb between the museum and science center.
And Lucas was just laughing and saying, "Check this out.
" And it's a black limo, and Lucas just had this look on his face like, "How dope is this?" And he says it's gonna take us someplace awesome, so we get in.
"Someplace awesome.
" Where? Still no idea.
Because then we're inside the limo, and You know that thing between where we sit and the driver, - the partition? - âMm-hmm.
Well, suddenly, that thing comes down, and a dude's arm comes in from the driver's seat, and he has some kind of mask on his face.
And he's spraying stuff at us from a hose.
It stung and tasted chemically.
SANCHEZ: What kind of chemical? I don't know, but we we tried to get out, - but the doors were locked.
- [ DOOR BEEPS .]
And the next thing I know, Ryan went down.
- How the hell could they still - And then I went down - not know where they were going? - and I guess Lucas went down.
And I was thinking The last thing I was thinking, "We're dead.
" - SYKES: And then what? - And then I woke up.
Could've been days later.
It was pitch black.
I was on the floor.
But then, after a second, I realized I wasn't actually on the floor.
I was on the ground.
I was outside, and Miguel was just shaking me because he woke up first.
We waited till sunrise, and then we realized we were in the middle of the desert somewhere.
We looked for the limo, but we couldn't find it, so we started walking, like, looking for a road or something.
It was brutal.
So hot.
Our throats were just burning 'cause of the desert or the chemical stuff.
I don't know.
It was just brutal.
And where'd you walk? Just picked a way.
Found some house.
They gave us water, but that barely helped.
And after they found out we were Americans, we figured out we were in Mexico.
And after they called the policÃa, it only got worse.
They went through our backpacks, and they said they found drugs, but I never touched oxy in my life.
And I tried to explain, but I don't know if they wouldn't listen or they couldn't understand.
You don't speak Spanish? I understand it pretty well, but, no, I-I don't speak it.
Look, where are my parents? Are they Are we in trouble? Because you're undocumented? Does the whole world know about this? [ SIGHS .]
My dad must be pissed.
Well, âit's not word for word but it's in the same vicinity.
The biggest bullshit story I've ever heard.
You tell Sanchez to shift gears.
I mean, they had to have known where Lucas was taking them.
Or thought they knew.
Lieutenant Provenza wants you to start the pushback.
Miguel, I'm gonna let you in on a little secret.
That's a camera.
People in another room are watching us, and they're also watching detectives interview your friend Ryan.
And you see this in my ear? That's so they can let me know whether or not yours and Ryan's stories match up.
And guess what I just heard.
What? Ryan said the drugs belong to you.
What? No.
I don't believe it.
Think of it as a game of "Pin the Tail on the Dreamer Kid" who's about to get deported back to Mexico for drug trafficking.
No, Ryan wouldn't say that.
Somebody did this to us, and I know who.
That racist jerk who lives next to Miguel Marvin.
Miguel thinks he did this.
Marvin hates us.
Can't trip 'em up.
- Look, you guys, look.
- They might even be telling the truth.
PROVENZA: What about ol' Marv? How you coming âwith his immigrant directory? Well, we're still working through it.
Marvin finally made bail, and the FBI didn't charge him with anything else, so they really don't think he's involved with any kidnapping, either.
Ye gods.
Tao, it's the parents.
Where's Ryan? Uh, we were just about to call you.
Uh, Ryan and Miguel are undergoing routine questioning with the police.
If I don't see Miguel in one minute, I'm calling a lawyer.
TAO: Look, we're just trying to help.
If you want to call lawyers, then we'll arrest your kids, and you can see them in court tomorrow.
Or Or you could just sit and relax while we finish our initial review, and then we will arrange for each of you to have a very short visit with your kid.
MIGUEL: [ VOICE BREAKING .]
Mom, Dad, I'm so sorry.
WOMAN: No.
No.
Don't worry about sorry.
Well, now maybe we'll get someplace.
We don't care.
[ VOICE BREAKING .]
We were just so afraid that maybe Oh, thank God.
Thank God, baby.
Thank God.
Hey, hey, no, look.
We're just happy you're okay.
No, I-I'm not okay.
I'm not.
[ SIGHS .]
The police want to send us back to Mexico.
Y-You don't have to worry about that, either.
We have rights.
- This is our home.
- âNo.
No, not "us" as in you and me.
Uh, "us" as in me and Ryan, because Mexican police found drugs on us, but they weren't our drugs.
DANIELLA: You expect me to believe that? You don't know âwhere Lucas was taking you, and you wake up days later in Mexico with drugs in your I swear, Mom.
They planted all that stuff on us.
Oh, great.
Lawyer.
Ryan, lawyer, okay? - Don't say anything more - Ian, you wait outside.
Absolutely not.
He's my son, too.
Yeah? Well, a lawyer will only make him look guilty.
- Are you insane? That's not - No, you're insane for thinking you should even be here.
Daniella, there is no logic in what you're saying at all, okay? Ryan, my man, listen to me.
You have a right to an attorney.
Okay? âWould you guys stop?! And quit blaming me for this! I didn't kidnap myself.
Aha.
Now, this could get interesting.
No? Then who did? Who? [LAUGHS.]
Who Who would kidnap you? No one would've kidnapped you if you'd kept with the field trip.
Why didn't you stay at the museum, huh? No, a kidnapping involves a ransom, and this may be hard to hear, but you ain't got nobody to pay anything to get you back, unless, uh, Hector's friends, they had it out for you or something.
- Is that it? - I don't want to talk to you guys.
I want to talk to Father Jonas.
Neither of you guys know what happened to me.
Neither of you guys care.
You.
You! Whoa.
Me.
Me! Who would you blame if I wasn't around?! Bitch.
Ugh! Boy, did I ever choose the wrong day to pick up a girl on the beach.
We followed up with Mr.
Nuñez about his, uh, date.
Uh, Julio called the young lady and confirmed that he was with her the afternoon the boys went missing.
And that's about it.
So, Ryan wanted to talk to Father Jonas, but Miguel didn't mention Father Jonas - at all, did he? - âNo, ma'am.
Sharon, the doctor wanted you to rest.
I'm I'm home.
I'm sitting.
[ CHUCKLING .]
Okay, I'm done.
Um, Buzz, will you tell Lieutenant Provenza that I recommend arresting these boys? Mm.
For what? The murder of Lucas Garza.
Oh.
Uh, o-okay.
Sure.
And, Rusty, if you'd call Andrea and ask her to hold off arraigning Miguel and Ryan until tomorrow, please.
- So they're guilty.
- We'll see.
Feel better, Commander.
Thank you, Buzz.
Oh.
I'm I'm just going to write an e-mail to Lieutenant Provenza about this little idea I have, and then I am done.
And then can you tell me what the doctor said about everything? Yes.
Everything.
[ KEYBOARD CLACKING .]
[ SIGHS .]
FLYNN: Are you done? [ CHUCKLES .]
'Cause I'm getting more stressed by the second.
Hi.
[ SIGHS .]
So, uh what did the doctor say, I mean besides, come home and get some rest? Rest from what? I'm sorry, Andy.
I just needed a little time in there to sort sort out my feelings.
So, the good news is we have a diagnosis.
The bad news is âI have a heart condition.
Like mine? No, no, I have something called cardiomyopathy.
Oh, well, that's I mean, âthat's kind of a broad term.
I mean, âit could be nothing, right? Well, it's not nothing because it's a virus attacking the pericardium, which is the outer lining of my heart.
Now, the infection could remain in its current state, clear up, or develop.
And if things worsen, there are other steps.
There's surgery, um, transplant.
- Transplant?! - âOh, no, âwe're not even there yet.
We're not even close.
Andy.
In fact, I feel better already.
But until I know more, I think we should postpone the wedding.
[ VOICE BREAKING .]
It's not fair to you.
Absolutely not.
You think I'd let anything get in the way of becoming your husband? I want you to just think about this just for a second.
I don't need a second.
[ SIGHS .]
All right, Sharon.
I never told you this.
But when I was sick âand you helped me through it Mm.
no one's ever treated me that well.
And I don't know if I deserve it, and I don't know âwhy you care about me so much, but it's all I can do right now to wait until the ceremony to call you my wife and to be your husband.
And if we're not gonna let myheart get in the way of that, then, uh, we're not gonna let yours stop us, either.
- But what if I - All right, all right.
The only change we're gonna make is no honeymoon.
We don't go to Ireland until we understand exactly what it is you're up against.
Unless y-you changed your mind about us.
Have you changed your mind? No.
Andy [SNIFFLES.]
no.
I love you so, s-so much.
I just [ SNIFFLES .]
As long as you understand what I am dealing with here.
Whatwe'redealing with, okay? - Okay.
- âAll right.
So, let's start from where the doctor asked me to leave the room.
[ BOTH LAUGH .]
And, uh, you try to remember, word for word, what he said to you, okay? Word for word.
DR.
JOE: Everything I hear will be completely confidential.
To you, Ryan Rojas might be a suspect, but, to me, he's a patient who survived a very traumatic experience.
And as a psychologist, my first order of business is These boys want us to believe that they ran off with Lucas with absolutely no idea about where they were going.
Now, I don't know âif you know this, doctor, but teenagers tend to lie when they screw up.
So unlike adults.
HOBBS: It's a lie âhe's sticking to, Lieutenant, and I'm out on a limb charging these boys with murder.
Do you have any evidence? Oh, details, details.
Without details, âthe defense's star witness is going to be Dr.
Morales, who will say Lucas Garza died âof complications from diabetes.
- But - I know.
I know.
The killer or killers may have starved Lucas to make his murder seem like natural causes.
The boys were found with opioids.
But you don't have alibis for Dr.
Garza or Father Jonas, who's proving as difficult to find as the boys were.
And, frankly, I am worried that, âwith the commander out sick, there isn't a real plan here.
I find that offensive, Hobbs.
I have been a detective for 40 years.
I know exactly what I'm doing.
Besides all that, âthis is the commander's plan, including having Dr.
Joe talk to Ryan about his issues.
What issues? His stepfather fell off the balcony of their condo and died.
Or maybe he was pushed.
BUZZ: And Ryan's natural father has an alibi, but he's still a sociopath.
And Kelly Garret said Ryan's only just starting to talk about being gay and that he has a crush on Miguel.
Wait.
Let's assume âwhat Ryan told us is true.
He's sprayed with a chemical agent, loses consciousness, wakes up âin the middle of a desert, is thrown in a Mexican jail because drugs were planted on him, is rescued only to find one of his best friends is dead.
All that spells a week of severe trauma.
So what's another day? And now we should assume that it didn't go down like Miguel and Ryan said because they conveniently don't remember anything that happened between the time âthey disappeared and woke up.
BUZZ: And they can't even explain why they were leaving the field trip, beyond everything being Lucas' idea.
Ah, Lucas.
Lucas, who is conveniently dead.
Doctor, that's why we need you to catch Ryan âin just one, little lie.
That will give us Lieutenant, my job is to talk to this boy privately, no listening in, âand assess his mental fitness.
It's your job to catch him in lies.
Sorry.
Sorry.
âI was pushing the envelope.
So, uh, why don't you set up in the commander's office, and we will send send Ryan in? Julio.
Daniella Rojas âis in Interview Room Number 1 like you wanted, Lieutenant.
I printed up some information on witness and victim's rights for her to read.
Patrol's outside the door, so she's not going anywhere.
Good.
Good, Julio.
Just be ready to grab her.
Sykes, why don't you bring Ryan in? And now we'll see if the commander's plan works.
RYAN: What the hell is this about? Are you another cop or what? - FBI again? - âNo.
My name's Dr.
Joe Bowman.
You can call me Dr.
Joe if you want.
I've already been looked at by doctors.
He's a different kind of doctor, Ryan.
A psychologist.
Let us know when you're done.
PROVENZA: Okay, Buzz.
Far as we can go.
Are we really allowed to be watching this? The law says no listening.
It doesn't say anything about watching.
Keep it muted, and we're fine.
But won't Dr.
Joe be angry? Buzz, we're doing this for Dr.
Joe's safety.
He's in there with a murder suspect, and he's unarmed.
RYAN: So, you're really not a cop? You have to say if I ask, don't you? That's only on TV, but have you ever seen a cop in a sweater vest? Everything you tell me is privileged.
Do you know that term? Yeah.
âLike what I say in confession.
But I've already answered every question people could think of.
Did they ask how you feel? Ryan, let's start with Lucas.
One of your very best friends is dead.
How are you holding up? Honestly? It's It's hard to believe.
I mean sometimes, I think it's true.
Sometimes, I think it just couldn't have happened.
[ VOICE BREAKING .]
I can't Lucas not being here anymore [ SNIFFLES .]
Dr.
Joe might be making headway.
- [ DOOR OPENS .]
- PROVENZA: Might be.
Yeah, well, whatever.
I'm losing interest in this silent movie.
Have you guys finished with Marvin's illegal-immigrant directory? Uh, yeah, cross-referenced all the crime reports with all of the addresses that Marvin kept tabs on.
At half the locations, there have been acts of vandalism uh, rocks through windows, slashed tires.
Well, someone could argue that's random.
Anything suggesting hate crimes? Well, that depends on how you interpret "get out of my country" spray-painted on your front door, which appeared at 31 different addresses.
- Sykes.
- âHmm? What are you thinking? The whole drug-trafficking issue.
Um, I just checked.
Lucas had no opioids hidden in his backpack anywhere.
I just thought we were going for a surprise, you know, like we've done a billion times before, just the three of us.
We just trusted Lucas knew what was going on.
Where is everyone? I'm sure âthey're not listening in.
That would be so against the rules.
[ CHUCKLING .]
Lieutenant.
Commander.
Oh, everything's off.
All by the book.
- Just watching.
- [ DOOR CLOSES .]
Not illegal.
So, have you learned anything? [ CLEARS THROAT .]
No.
No.
Not yet.
But, Commander, uh, welcome back.
Sometimes a crime which is what happened to you is unrelated âto our daily lives, random.
And sometimes crimes happen inside families, like with your stepdad, for instance Hector.
He hit you, right? He hurt you? Yeah.
He hit me.
And that's a crime, though he may have said it was your fault, that he was beating you for a reason.
Is that what happened? Why did Hector say he was hurting you? He said it was because of the way I am, things I did.
You think Hector You think Hector had something to do with this? I mean, what happened to Hector? Is that why Lucas died? I don't know.
Is it? [ DOOR OPENS .]
You guys need to put a sign out here or something.
Looks like âyou're taking the day off.
And I have news.
[ DOOR CLOSES .]
Do you ever talk about Hector and what he was doing to you to anyone, somebody at school maybe? I told Father Jonas âHector punched me a few times.
But I also said reporting it would only make things worse.
Because of Hector's gang connections? He said Hector said if I told on him, him and his friends would take care of me for good and my mom.
That had to be scary stuff to handle on your own.
How did you manage it? [ SNIFFLES .]
[ SOBBING QUIETLY .]
The substance found on Lucas Garza's shirt was chloroform? MORALES: That's right.
Once you told me the boys were sprayed with something, I made âNo, no, no, theyclaimed that they were sprayed.
- We have no proof of that.
- Whatever.
I made a list of fast-acting anesthetics that could be delivered via aerosol and found a match from that list on Lucas' shirt chloroform.
Yes, but the issue is that But, doctor, all that confirms is that Lucas was sprayed with chloroform.
We can't test Ryan and Miguel's clothes because they were left somewhere in the Rosarito Police Department.
Detective Paige, thank you for your boundless enthusiasm.
Doctor, also, the boys complained about burning throats.
Chloroform would not do that at all.
Now, supposing that their ridiculous story was true and we could find this fantasy limo, would chloroform still be present? If you ran across the limo within the next 600 days, yes.
And, personally, I think the limo is real.
Holy crap! It says here oxycodone was in Lucas' blood? Ohh.
Spoiler alert.
But, yes, based on the fact that the other boys were found with opioids, I screened Lucas' blood for oxy, and there it was.
Lethal amount? No, Lucas still died from ketoacidosis, but there was more than enough oxy to keep him unconscious after the chloroform wore off.
Which could make the drugs a contributory cause of death.
Maybe Dr.
Garza had another stash of pills somewhere Lucas found.
Uh, Lieutenant, you wanted to know if Ryan got really emotional.
Oh.
Wonderful, Buzz.
Thank you.
And I will text Julio that he's on.
Daniella.
I'm sorry to interrupt you, but your son needs you, ma'am.
Oh.
Commander.
I hope you didn't rush back for my assessment.
I'm nowhere near done.
Well, your conversation with Ryan is not the one âwe're interested in, doctor.
You were eavesdropping? We just watched.
Well, but now, we're going to listen.
Buzz? SANCHEZ: I'll be standing outside the door.
Knock if you need me.
[ DOOR CLOSES .]
They won't stop asking all these questions.
They want to know everything.
Well, w-what do you mean, everything? PROVENZA: Okay, boyo.
You're all worked up.
Now just let it out.
You used me âto get Ryan emotional enough to break down like this? I'm not here to loosen the jar for you, Lieutenant.
You can get back to your assessment in a moment, doctor.
Tell me what, Ryan? Tell me what? Oh, God.
I'm going to hell.
I'm going to hell.
- I want to talk to Father Jonas.
- âOkay, okay.
- I want to talk to Father Jonas.
- âOkay, okay.
We all want to talk to Father Jonas, kid.
Okay.
Listen.
He's coming back to L.
A.
tomorrow.
He's worried about you, Ryan.
Whoa.
That's news.
I-I'll find a way for you two to talk.
Our priest was in touch with Daniella Rojas? We need to find Jonas before she does.
Cover airports, bus stations, and train stations.
And given the confirmed use of opioids, I think it's time to release Lucas' body to his parents with the autopsy report.
If you're all through, I'd like to finish helping out the boy.
Of course, doctor.
That's why you're here.
[ DOOR OPENS .]
Opioids in Lucas Garza's blood.
But not in his backpack.
So it's cardio cardio what? Cardiomyopathy.
- [ CELLPHONE KEYBOARD CLICKING .]
- myopathy.
The disease varies from person to person, so not everything you read online is going to "The disease can have no symptoms and require no treatment or develop quickly âwith serious complications.
" How do we know which version you have? We don't.
Not yet.
But we will.
Dr.
Jacobs is a very experienced cardiologist, and he told me that most people die with this disease, not from this disease.
Well, what can I do to help? Accept the full undercover security detail that the L.
A.
P.
D.
is recommending.
It would take a lot of stress off my heart, I am sure.
Wow.
I mean, I-I know it's your job to make people feel guilty enough to take a deal, but wow.
All right.
I will accept the security detail, but I still want âthe concealed-weapon permit.
The gun is your last resort.
Your first option is your security detail.
Thank you for agreeing to this.
Means a lot to me.
Um, do you remember, Rusty, that we invited Gus to the wedding? Oh, God, he's He won't come.
Well, he R.
S.
V.
P.
'd yes.
That was two months ago.
He's not coming.
We We're not even talking to each other.
You don't think that Gus is coming to the wedding, do you? He ordered the salmon.
Uh, Ryan Rojas and Miguel Diaz are about to be arraigned.
- Do you want to be there? - Yes.
Uh, Mom.
My phone.
Oh, my goodness.
Sorry.
We will, um, talk about this later, okay? I don't want you to worry about me.
Things will work out the way they're meant to be.
Okay? MATEO: Why do we have to sign Miranda rights to pick up our son's body? Short answer? Because lawyers.
FLYNN: You're no stranger to bureaucracy, doctor.
Insurance companies probably force you to jump through more hoops than we do.
- Really? - âYes.
I'm sorry.
In addition, we need you to sign a form acknowledging that you've read the autopsy report, which is here.
Are there photographs in there - because I-I don't think that - FLYNN: No pictures.
The D.
A.
spared us that.
Just stuff you have to read.
Happy to be thrown under the bus if it helps.
MATEO: Why do Miguel and Ryan say they're not guilty? I mean, you arrested them.
You must have proof they did this.
It may surprise you, but most murderers plead not guilty.
I don't even like seeing Lucas' name in this.
We're sorry, ma'am.
You're almost finished.
All you have left is the lab report and the tox screen.
Is that âIs that really necessary? Unfortunately, we need to see each of you complete a review.
And then we need to fill out a form saying we witnessed the review, and if we don't do that, well, it's just one big thing.
W-Well, this this can't be right.
Why does it say that there was oxycodone in Lucas' blood? FLYNN: Uh, Miguel and Ryan were found in possession of oxy in Mexico.
Medical examiner screened Lucas' blood for They had oxy? I thought pot maybe, but they had oxy? Where did that get oxy from? - Where would they get it, huh? - Hang on, Sara.
Where would they get it? They They didn't get it from me.
Where would they get it? Sara, this is not the time to have this conversation.
- Oh, really? - âYes, really! Look.
âI am 100 percent positive - You can't be sure! - Yes, I can because Dr.
Garza, is there something we should know? They couldn't.
They couldn't have taken the oxy from me because I know exactly how much I have.
You have? You're using again? Yeah, I screwed up.
I'm sorry.
But, look, I-I'll tell you exactly how much oxy I've Don't look at me that way, Sara! Let me finish! Okay? I'll check out how much oxy I have put away and see if Lucas and his friends have taken any of it.
They haven't, but I think we'd like to check out that oxy with you, doctor.
Go talk to my lawyer.
Sara! PROVENZA: Maybe âthat's the way it happened.
Miguel and Ryan use âDr.
Garza's oxy with Lucas.
Lucas passes out, âcan't give himself insulin, ends up dead.
Now Miguel and Ryan try to cover it up.
They panic, run off to Mexico, and make up this bullshit story.
Or Lucas learned his dad was using again and threatened to tell his mother.
Garza could lose his practice, his marriage, all his money.
He could lose his practice, yes.
Well, does anyone think that's enough to kill your own kid? - [ DOOR OPENS .]
- SYKES: Uh, I don't know how he got back into the country, but the SIS team surveilling St.
Joseph's reported Father Jonas just showed up.
You want them to grab him? Father Jonas.
Welcome home.
You have a nice trip, asshole? Why would you speak to me like that, Lieutenant? How about you ran âfrom a murder investigation? I left to protect my vows.
Yeah, that's what all the single mothers you slept with said, too.
You were very concerned about your vows.
How did you get back into the U.
S.
from Mexico? That's between me and the Church.
You two share a lot of very personal secrets, don't you? Lieutenant Flynn, would you please escort Father Jonas to our Visitors Conference Center? Sure.
Right this way, your somewhat holiness.
Father Jonas' obsession with Ryan continues.
Or is it his obsession with Ryan's mother? You said that she and Jonas looked close.
[ FOOTSTEPS APPROACH .]
Chief, are you here to listen to our interview with Father Jonas? No.
I'm coming to tell you that you've got another crime scene.
[ SIREN WAILS .]
When he came back to work, the doctor seemed upset, locked himself in his office.
[ VOICE BREAKING .]
A few hours later, I went to give him his call sheet, and [ DOOR BUZZES .]
PROVENZA: After finding the body, did either of you touch anything? Yes, I did.
âI came in after Cora yelled.
Uh, she was dialing 911 from the desk phone.
I tried the naloxone.
I started carrying it after his first trip to rehab.
Did chest compressions, but I was too late.
We haven't called his family.
We'll take care of that.
Uh, if you would please go with Detective Paige, she'll escort you into the hallway.
Thank you.
Thank you, doctor.
Hmm.
Yeah, he's got a big bruise across his forehead.
Open bottle of oxy.
Overdose maybe? He could've passed out, hit his head on the desk.
Garza felt âthe walls closing in on him.
The guilt probably caught up with him.
This guy did not kill himself because he murdered his son.
Well, you don't know that, Julio.
Killing your son is not a Mexican Catholic crime, sir.
Well, not everyone conforms to stereotypes.
The truth is The truth is All right, give him a second, Lieutenant.
- He's just frustrated.
- Yeah.
Well, I agree with him about one thing.
As a solution to a murder it doesn't get any worse than this.
