AUTOMATED_VOICE BRUCE CAPTAIN CARL CHANCE CHRISTINA DANA DAVENY DENNIS DEPUTY_SHERIFF_AMOS DEPUTY_SHERIFF_THOMAS DETECTIVE_LACEY DI GILYARD GILYARDI GUARD HYNES INDIRA_JANES JODI KIRSTEN LAMBERT LEXI LORENA MAYA MO NICOLE PITT TALI TALIA TANNER TOM VAN VELERIO WINTER CHANCE Previously on Chance. CHANCE Dawson Pitt? PITT Yeah. We know each other? CHANCE Not just yet. DI How long do you think it's gonna take the cops to figure out you and your job are the common denominator between these guys? LORENA Esto es Lorena. Deja un mensaje. DI I can't get a hold of her. She probably should have called back by now. CHRISTINA We're just gonna have to make some changes going forward. CHANCE What changes? NICOLE Don't let them take me, please! Mom! CHRISTINA I'm sorry, Nic. WINTER Why did you find me? LAMBERT You and I should talk. HYNES It's the fucking definition of critical thinking to look at all that and see that Ryan Winter killed them all. VELERIO For the goddamn millionth time, nobody thinks that but you! LAMBERT What do you think? Do you think he had an accomplice? CHANCE I don't know. LAMBERT No more talking to Dr. Chance. That is over DENNIS Lieutenant at Richmond Station, had a guy walk in an hour ago, starts confessing to multiple murders. LAMBERT The only person who can fuck this up right now is you. LAMBERT Hey, boss. Sorry. Sorry. INDIRA JANES Shit, Frank, you scared the shit out of me. LAMBERT I would have called first, but I figured it was too early for you to pick up. Assuming you've heard the news? INDIRA JANES About Ryan Winter being a multiple murderer? I mean, just when you think there's nothing left to this job that can surprise you. LAMBERT Yeah. INDIRA JANES Is that why you're here? You want it? LAMBERT I want it so bad I've been here for two hours, just in case you decided to go for a run earlier. INDIRA JANES Okay, but we don't even know what we're dealing with here yet, Frank. LAMBERT Seven counts of first degree so far, and the guy is still talking. INDIRA JANES And I'm hearing he already told his lawyer he wants to waive his right to a prelim trial. LAMBERT You know what else I heard? I heard somebody from the PD is leaking confession details to the media. Listen, this is gonna be a circus. All right, it already is. So, if at the end of the day, all that ends up happening is Winter pleads guilty, and we're just jockeying before the judge trying to get the maximum sentence, fine. But we both know it's a long road from here and there. So, you are gonna feel a whole lot better if you got your best person handling the case. So. INDIRA JANES Let me think about it, Frank, okay? LAMBERT Absolutely. I insist on it. INDIRA JANES Does your being friends with Kevin Hynes have anything to do with this ask? LAMBERT Look, everybody was friends with Hynes once. Everybody in the PD and everybody from our office. I'm just the guy that never stopped. INDIRA JANES All right. I'll tell you by the end of today. LAMBERT Thank you. CHANCE How are you? How do you feel? WINTER Tired. Sort of scraped out inside, you know? CHANCE Yeah. WINTER But I like it. Things have felt bad before, and good, but they've never felt right. This, doing this, being here, it-it feels right. CHANCE I talked to Lucy. She told me that she'd been seeing you. That you attacked her. That you were gonna hurt her, kill her. WINTER I wanted to. I'm glad I didn't. CHANCE You're glad you didn't. Why didn't you? WINTER I think the question should be, "Why Lucy?" Don't you? I mean, it was her at first, at all, because she was close to you. And then, when I found out about you, I wanted to make you feel it, to know it was your fault. CHANCE Found out what about me? WINTER That you're a liar. You and Detective Hynes, you were friends, weren't you? CHANCE Not at first. WINTER He sent you to the parking lot that night because I was a monster, and I had to be stopped. Some part of me knew from the beginning, that I wasn't seeing all of you, that you were holding something back. And then in the water that day, with your arm around my neck, I connected it. But I shut the connection down. I wouldn't let myself understand what it meant. I just wanted to believe that someone wanted to save me, that you wanted to, more than I wanted to know you were lying. And I was right to do that because you. You did save me. You hurt me to save me, and now here we are. CHANCE Here we are. WINTER I know I can't talk to that woman, your patient, but I wonder if this is how it is for her, too. Peaceful like this. I hope so. Grace lies not in the fulfillment of my desires, but in the strength to accept everything with joy. CHANCE Who else was there when Stevie Benjamin died? WINTER What? No. What? CHANCE Someone else was there. Who was it? WINTER Complicated. CHANCE Was it Lyndsay? WINTER It's complicated. CHANCE She's not around anymore, so no one can touch her now. WINTER No- Listen Lyndsay loved me. She really did. And I- No, no. Listen. I was there. CHANCE Yeah. WINTER I was, and I carry that around. I do. CHANCE Then we're both liars, I guess. We both wish things had happened differently, things were other than they are. I lied to you about Hynes, but I told you another lie, too. The woman, the patient, you keep talking about, her name is Jaclyn, and I wanted to help her find peace, become whole, because I was in love with her. But she didn't want that. She didn't want my help. She didn't want to be whole. I have no idea where she is now. But where we are now, Ryan, is uncharted territory, for both of us. I don't know what happens next. CARL I drove around Lorena's neighborhood for some time. And yes, I parked and waited for even more time. I saw nothing that qualified as suspicious. I saw nothing at all. DI So maybe I was wrong then. After she helped us with the Winter thing, all the shit that went down, maybe she just wanted to be done. CARL With you, you mean? Is that what you think? Is that what you want? Did you talk to her friends? DI I don't think she has any friends. CARL Don't think, or don't know? What about her doctor, the OBGYN? Have you called them, see if maybe she missed an appointment? Favorite restaurants, perhaps? DI They haven't seen her at the Golden Pagoda. CARL All right. Stores at which she shops? Walks she takes? Sights she likes to see? Young man, it appears to me that you have not conducted this mission with your usual attention to detail DI I know. CARL Not to worry. When next you see Lorena. DI If. CARL When you see Lorena, ask her these things and more besides. She will like that. I promise you. NICOLE Can you at least tell me where we are? Or where we're going? Hey, is this girl okay back here? DANA She will be. LEXI What the actual fuck. TOM Welcome back, Lexi. LEXI You're kidding me. TOM LEXI Yeah, laugh it up. Must've been a pretty tough grab with me passed out, you fucking degenerate. Oh, my God, I can't believe this shit is happening again. And what are you here for? You look like booze, or mommy's pills. Okay, yeah, don't tell me. I'll be bored to fucking death hearing about it in group pretty soon anyway. God. Hot! TOM Put your seatbelt back on. CHANCE Hey, Nic, it's me again. Listen, are you getting these messages? Are you trying to tell me something? 'Cause I'm gonna ignore it and just keep calling until you call me back. Please. I love you. Bye. KIRSTEN Staff meeting? CHANCE That I absolutely did not forget about and am on my way to. You okay? What's up? KIRSTEN Uh, yeah, uh, just a lot going on is all. CHANCE Gin rummy marathon and pizza from Pink Onion might help. KIRSTEN Too busy today and tomorrow, but if I'm still alive on Thursday, it's a date. Close the door. Hi guys, sorry. Uh, before we get started, I have something we all need to be aware of going forward. I've been checking in on a person we've had an ongoing problem with, Wade Pardo. He assaulted Sam Koch and his boyfriend, made threats against this place. Turns out that Wade was attacked and seriously injured himself recently. And so was Anton Spangler, a couple of months ago. Plus, Matty Willis, who had his arrest voided on a technicality after raping Clara Santiago. He was stabbed and permanently disabled. All three of them described the same attacker, and this is what he looks like. So, we gotta keep our eyes and ears open. Figure out if there's something going on. DI Who's the fat fuck? CARL I wouldn't say it captures your allure. CHANCE Wh-- So this is just a joke? That's how we're gonna treat this? DI I don't know how your friend got it to go that far, but that is as far as it's going. I told you, the cops don't care about these shit birds catching beat downs. CHANCE The cops don't care enough to investigate these cases, that's your opinion. The connection between us and these assaults is a fact. CARL The connection between the assaults and the face in that sketch, that's. CHANCE Carl, that's- No, no, no. That's. DI We stopped, anyway. We haven't gone after anyone since that Dawson Pitt guy. Look, Doc, take away all the arguments we had about tactics and methods. Before she handed you that drawing, before you thought we could be in trouble, were you sorry we did it? Doc? CHANCE I don't know. No. DI Then own it. That is out there. It exists. There's nothing I can do about it. Only things that matter to me are things I can do something about. CHANCE Like? DI Like finding Lorena. CHANCE Lorena? CARL He's worried she's in trouble. GILYARD Winter's confession doesn't reopen the case, but it does clear Ronny Pefaur of Josefa's murder. KIRSTEN I mean, I'm glad Ronny's cleared of something he didn't do, but. LAMBERT I know, it's an upsetting situation for so many reasons. KIRSTEN Right now, I'm mostly upset about how this could reflect on the Unit. Winter being treated here. GILYARDI Which he was entitled to be, just like anyone else in this city. KIRSTEN I know, but our funding, our private donors especially. They don't like negative attention. LAMBERT Well, we've got so many charges against Winter that my boss might decide not to bring all the cases to court. Meaning that, if we don't bring Josefa's case, VOVC won't be under as much scrutiny. KIRSTEN Has he said anything about the computers? Winter upgraded our computers. I thought it was generosity, like the huge check he wrote. GILYARDI But it was maybe a way to gain access to personal info, medical histories. KIRSTEN Right. LAMBERT Yeah, but why would Winter need to replace all the computers to do that? The only way we're gonna be able to answer that question is gonna make it pretty hard for you guys to get any work done around here. KIRSTEN We got along with our old computers before, we can do it again. LAMBERT Well. Wish I could say that we won't be back for any reason. KIRSTEN It's fine, I understand. But maybe I can ask a favor? LAMBERT Yeah. KIRSTEN Long story short, I found out that several people who had victimized patients of ours in the past, have recently been victims of violent crimes themselves. Beatings. One was stabbed. I reported it to the SFPD, but. LAMBERT Anton Spangler, Matty Willis, Wade Pardo. KIRSTEN All three of them described their attacker as a big, bald man with a neck tattoo. LAMBERT Yeah, okay. GILYARDI That is a big, bald man with a neck tattoo, all right. KIRSTEN On top of all this with Winter, I don't like to think there might be something going on that I'm not seeing. Again. LAMBERT Consider it done. Let's go. LAMBERT Tell you what, I'll write up the warrant for the hard drives. You, uh, check on the big, bald guy. GILYARDI Fuck that. You're kidding. LAMBERT What? GILYARDI Or, you want to bang her. Which is not my problem, so don't make it my problem, Frank. LAMBERT It's community relations, Gilly. Doing favors builds relationships. Getting people to trust you is a good thing. Haven't you learned that by now? LEXI Welcome to paradise. TANNER We don't have all day, ladies, let's go. BRUCE Okay, listen up. My name's Bruce. I'm a therapist here at the Wilderness Program. If you don't know why you're here, you'll have plenty of time to figure that out. For the next six weeks, there's no phones, no frills, no friends. But at the end, you'll emerge a changed person. We'd like to think for the better, but that's up to you. TANNER Bruce gave you the pretty version, but this is about basic survival, and you will learn it. Follow the rules, maybe you'll make it. Now groups of four. We have- Burgess, Chance, Estavez, and Keegan. Grab your gear in the Provisions Cabin, and let's go. Let's go. LEXI Uh, make sure you check for mold first. NICOLE How many times you been here? LEXI This is my third. Or the second and a half, I guess, since it's not like I waited for it to be done before I bailed last time. NICOLE What, you ran away? LEXI Got all the way to the Colony. The squatter house in Oakland. You know it? NICOLE Mm, no, I ran away like once, and I went to my dad's, so. LEXI Well, the Colony is fucking rad. All kids. Artists. Bullshit-free living. NICOLE What happened? LEXI I went to Quick Bite, and my uncle saw me. Now, he said he wouldn't say anything, but, well, here I am, telling you how he said he wasn't gonna say anything, so. Who sent you? NICOLE My mother. LEXI Okay. Why? You a little handful? NICOLE 'Cause she finally saw the real me, I guess? And she really doesn't like her. TANNER We hit the trails in ten. Use the outhouse. It's your last chance at any comfort. DAVENY We are formally pleading guilty. LAMBERT Great. I don't necessarily see why I had to come down to hear that in person, but I'm. DAVENY And we will be filing a motion for a sanity hearing at the same time. LAMBERT You're kidding. DAVENY We can prove diminished capacity. LAMBERT Well, you're gonna have to, Rich. Right? I mean, you do understand that a diminished capacity plea completely shifts the burden of proof off of me and on to you. You know that, right? Or maybe you don't. DAVENY An act in and of itself doesn't constitute a criminal offense. Mental state is just as important. LAMBERT Okay, how about you get to lecture me on criminal law when I get to lecture you about reading the green when you're fucking putting. All right? DAVENY LAMBERT Now, my bo My boss is not gonna be happy about this. DAVENY Your boss doesn't like anything, Frank. We are motioning Monday. The court will need time to appoint an expert. We already have ours. We just need to find yours. LAMBERT I'll be fine. Don't you worry about me. I just want to know if your client understands what he's getting into. Do you know the standard of legal insanity in California, Mr. Winter? Hmm? Do you have any idea what your lawyer here is attempting to prove? DAVENY What the hell are you doing, Frank? WINTER I'm okay. I feel okay. LAMBERT Great. Great. Because I just want you to know, Mr. Winter, that you're gonna have to prove that at the time you committed all those murders, that you were laboring under such a defect of reason, from disease of the mind, as not to know the nature and quality of the act. Basically, that you didn't understand your actions any more than would an infant, a brute, or a wild beast. But you know what? I think you did understand them, Mr. Winter. In fact, I fucking know that you did. WINTER I want to talk to Dr. Chance. LAMBERT I bet you do. DAVENY I will call Dr. Chance as soon as we're out of here. CHRISTINA Hello? CHANCE Hey, Christina, listen, I'm sorry this is, uh, this is short notice, but I just can't have Nic coming over tonight. CHRISTINA Okay, I-I wasn't even thinking about that, but. CHANCE I left her a bunch of messages, but can you just tell her that I'll make it up to her. I'll take her to Marin this weekend or something. CHRISTINA I can't, Eldon. I can't tell her that. CHANCE Why not? If this is what you meant by needing to change, this is not how you do that. CHRISTINA That's not what I meant at all. CHRISTINA I researched Clearview thoroughly. CHANCE Oh, my God, Christina. It's a reform school disguised as therapy camp. I don't understand. CHRISTINA No. No. It's a reputable place with a proven track record. CHANCE It's- I don't understand how they let you do this. How did they just take her in without joint consent? How long have you been planning this? What did you do? You just you forged my signature? CHRISTINA Do you remember Nancy Bart's son, Tristan? CHANCE Of course, because he was a meth addict. CHRISTINA That's right, and she sent him to Clearview, and now, he's applying to Northwestern and Princeton. CHANCE I don't care where Nicole goes to college right now, or even if she goes. CHRISTINA Of course, and why wouldn't I have wanted to have this discussion with you? CHANCE Well, did you even consider it? Did you think I might have an opinion about the mental state and treatment of our daughter? CHRISTINA Of course I did. I considered it in light of the conversation we had the other day. CHANCE Is that what this is? You're getting back at me. CHRISTINA This is not about you. Or it is, because I don't know who you are. I can't trust you. I don't think anyone can. CHANCE What you're doing is not legal. CHRISTINA Okay, so then, fight me. Take me to court. Let's peel back both our lives. Let's have a judge decide who should be in charge of making decisions in our child's best interest, me or you. You can let yourself out. VELERIO Hey. Detective Velerio. How you doing? CARL Oh. Carl Allan. Can I help you with something, Detective? VELERIO Call me Sid. CARL All right, Sid. VELERIO I asked these guys to let me know if someone came for Kevin. Detective Hynes. You guys were friends? CARL Well, not of long standing, but yes. We met under complicated circumstances, but I liked him immediately. He was an old soul. VELERIO Hm. CARL You were friends, too, obviously. VELERIO Yeah, for a long time. He was my mentor first, though. Taught me how to do my job. I would've. I would've washed out without him. And I paid him back for that by treating him like fucking shit. CARL I'm sure you didn't. VELERIO I did, though. And to top it off, the last time that I saw him, I basically bumrushed him out of the building. He tell you about Ryan Winter? CARL He did. And now, apparently, everyone else knows, too. Will that vindicate Kevin, do you think? Absolve his memory? VELERIO If I have anything to do with it, it will. I don't care if I have to go door to door to every cop in the Bay Area. You gonna have a funeral, or. CARL No. Cremation. VELERIO Maybe we should take his ashes to a bar and have a few pops with him sometime. CARL VELERIO In memoriam. CARL I think he would like that very much. VELERIO Okay, well. Whenever he's ready. CARL All right, Sid. VELERIO Carl. CARL Yes. LAMBERT I just wanted to ask if it was you. CHANCE Is what me? LAMBERT Are you their expert on Winter's diminished capacity? Or I should say, one of their experts. Case this big, there's probably more than one, right? CHANCE Honestly, I don't feel comfortable discussing this. Nothing's official at this point anyway. LAMBERT I get it. I guess, you know, just feel like I'm playing catch-up here. And I know you've been with the guy from the jump, and I just wanted to take your temperature about it. Uh, forewarned is forearmed and all that. But, hey, I did not mean to make you feel uncomfortable. Seriously. And sorry I even had you come over here. I'll tell you what, you don't have to tell me anything, and I'd like to offer you a drink. CHANCE Sure. Generally speaking, yeah, I believe that Ryan Winter suffers from several severe and distinct personality disorders. LAMBERT Okay. Well, do you think his disorders grossly disturbed his capacity to understand reality? Did they cause severely legally relevant, uh, impairments at the time of his crimes? CHANCE I'm feeling uncomfortable again. LAMBERT Okay. Thought I'd try. CHANCE But I am ready to say, off the record, between us, that wherever Winter winds up, he needs dedicated psychiatric care. Back on the record, the way our legal system handles mental illness is Byzantine at best, and cruel and unusual at worst. LAMBERT Well, I, uh, sort of, occasionally and unofficially think so, too. Don't tell my boss. HYNES Mendota, 1990. 13 year old boy killed, case still open. Maybe Winter didn't kill Stevie, or maybe he didn't kill him alone. LAMBERT Well, that's enough fucking salad. Oh, hey, I offered you a drink, and then I totally didn't get you one. What an asshole. Look at that, somebody ganked my other glass. Fucking. Or you know what, probably left it in the coffee room sink. Hold that thought. I will be right back. Crisis averted. CHANCE You know what, I I should probably get going. You know, it's. What the hell, one for the road. LAMBERT Cheers. CHANCE Cheers, yeah. CHANCE Mendota, 1991. Same time, same ages, it all lines up. DI The Doc figured out who that DNA belongs to CHANCE Maybe DI Hynes's friend. Guy who works in the DA's office. CARL Oh, never rains but it pours, huh. DI Have you braced Winter about this yet? CHANCE Winter's been transferred to county jail. He's isolated from the general population. He gets three one hour visits a week, besides his attorney. I'm seeing him Thursday. Meantime, this was in Lambert's mouth. DI Smells like ranch. CHANCE Question is, who can help us with it? Who'd want to? DI Not to mention, if this Lambert catches wind, we're fucked. CHANCE I guess I could go to Mendota police, just throw myself on the mercy of whoever it was Hynes was talking to when he was there. CARL I think I might know someone. A recent acquaintance, one whose karma is in need of repair. What would you think of this if you were ashes? Hmm? I think I would love it. JODI Stroke the bow around the spindle, back and forth quickly. MAYA This isn't working. JODI It's gonna take some time. You'll have to keep at it. Get closer to the sawdust. MAYA Do we really have to do this? JODI You can eat raw food and freeze. Your choice. Faster. NICOLE Here. LEXI How the hell did you do that so quick? This usually takes me hours. NICOLE Just lucky, I guess. LEXI Oh, okay. AUTOMATED VOICE The customer's voice mailbox is full. TALIA Hi. DI What do you want? TALIA I don't want anything. I swear, I'm just the messenger. DI From who? TALIA Your father. DI My father, who said he would leave me the fuck alone from now fucking on. TALIA Is what he said you'd say, and he told me to tell you that's still true. He also wanted me to give you something. It's in my bag. I'm, uh, gonna take it out now. Please don't do anything. DI Put it there. TALI Okay. DI What is it? TALIA I don't know. He just said that you should have it. That it's yours. DI Awesome. Now, get a move on, while you can still move. Lorena, you okay? Where are you? I'm coming. CHANCE Detective Velerio? VELERIO Yeah. CHANCE Dr. Eldon Chance. Carl Allan gave me your name. I wanted to talk about Kevin Hynes. VELERIO What about him? CHANCE He was my friend, and I think he was yours, too. VELERIO Not when it counted, but yeah. Why? CHANCE Well, I'm a neuropsychiatrist. I was helping Kevin look into Ryan Winter. VELERIO Okay. CHANCE He thought there might be an accomplice. VELERIO What? Nobody's said anything about that, including Winter, from what I hear. Where the fuck does that idea come from? WINTER What's going on? Are those my clothes? They said I thought I had to wear this now. GUARD Don't know. Guess somebody's looking out for you. WINTER Okay. CHANCE Victim's name was Stevie Benjamin. He was 13. Mendota PD pulled DNA from under his fingernails. It's still being stored. VELERIO How do you know that? CHANCE Which will match the DNA on this fork. VELERIO Now, the DNA that you say comes from Winter's accomplice, does it come with a name? CHANCE Will you please just run this against the Stevie Benjamin case? If it's a match, I'll tell you the name then. VELERIO What's the matter? You scared or something? What're you scared of? WINTER Wait, do I keep on the socks I'm wearing, or. CHANCE Please, just do this. VELERIO Fuck it. I owed him. I'll do it, fine. CHANCE Thank you. VELERIO I'm not doing it for you. CHANCE No, I know. VELERIO I'm doing it for Kev, not you. I get kind of a hinky vibe off you, Doc. MAYA All right, so I fucked up. BRUCE Listen, Maya, it's not a big revelation, but the more you're able to be honest with yourself, the more other people will respect you. All right, who's next? Nicole, you've been pretty quiet. Got a letter here from your mom. NICOLE You don't need the letter. There was this girl, I thought she was my friend, then I found out she was spreading shit about me all over the internet, so I broke her nose with a book. I'm not sorry, and I don't like this game, or this place. I'm a straight “A” student, not a drug addict, but I would do what put me here again in a hot minute. BRUCE Okay, so you believe the punishment fit her crime? Your former friend? NICOLE Yup. BRUCE So violence was the answer, is the answer? NICOLE Well, if it means making things right. BRUCE Making things right? Hmm. What does that mean to you, making things right? Does that mean she should apologize? Takes everything back? Promises she'll never do it again? So is that what happened after you broke her nose? Did she, uh, make things right? NICOLE Well, you tell me what you think I should have done then. Just eat it? What about what she did? BRUCE What about it? This is not the last time something like this is gonna happen to you, or to any of us. Terrible, painful, unjust shit will happen again and again and again, and the only part of any of it that you'll ever be able to control, is how you react. You'd do what you did again in a hot minute, that's what you said. But you said it to me here, in this place. And that girl, whatever her name is, she's at home, eating hot food and sleeping in a bed. You're here. LORENA I have to leave soon. It's bad for Paloma that I'm here. Los Cazadores must've been looking for me right from the start, if going to one stupid job agency let them figure out where I was, how hard it's gonna be for them to find me now? I sold the car that Winter gave me to Paloma's son, so that should be enough for bus fare to get somewhere far enough from here. DI Like where? LORENA I don't know. Gonna decide at the last minute. Keep it loose. DI This guy who's looking for you. LORENA It's the baby's father. DI Yeah, him. He have a name? LORENA Hector Ibarra. Los Cazadores call him El Martillo, The Hammer. I could, I could tell you why, but it's disgusting. DI Well, you basically just did tell-tell me, so. LORENA Me, he doesn't care about. He wants the baby. Any way that he can get him. DI I can take care of Hector. LORENA I know that you think that you can, but even if you did, it doesn't work like that. DI I don't care how it works. LORENA Los Cazadores, they make people pay, okay? But they pay, too. There's always somebody getting paid. Here or there, or- it-it doesn't matter. And you can't change it. You can't stop it, so you better not get in the way of it. Not by killing Hector. Not at all. You're a good man. But I'll be okay. Okay? I just have to hide again. This time, long enough for Hector to get tired. DI I know you think so. But even if you could, that's not how it works. DEPUTY SHERIFF THOMAS Deputy Sheriff Thomas. CHANCE Dr. Eldon Chance. I'm Ryan Winter's psychiatrist. We were supposed to have a one hour session this morning. DEPUTY SHERIFF THOMAS Dr. Chance, your patient committed suicide last night. CHANCE Are you sure? DEPUTY SHERIFF THOMAS Used his own socks, soaped the floor first, so, yeah, we are. CHANCE Did he leave a note? DEPUTY SHERIFF AMOS No, he did not. D If it makes you feel any better, Lambert probably had been cooking it up since he found out Winter confessed. CHANCE What about any of this could make anyone feel better. I guess the coroner's report might show something. Injuries sustained before death. DI Wouldn't count on it. End of the day, Lambert took care of him like a boss, and saved the city and state millions of dollars. That's all anyone will be thinking about. You talk to that Detective Velerio? CHANCE What? Uh Yeah. I-Yeah. He said he's gonna do it. DI What's your deal? CHANCE Winter was sure that he was going to a psychiatric hospital because I told him that that's where Jaclyn had gone, after she confessed to murder. And the last time I saw him, I admitted it was a lie, so. DI If it's easier for you to believe that Winter committed suicide because of something you said, rather than that he was murdered so he couldn't dump Lambert in the shit, well, I'm not gonna tell you to get over yourself. But you should. KIRSTEN Thank you. CHANCE What's your deal? Is it Lorena? Carl said you found her. Is everything okay? DI Not yet. CHANCE Right. We had a plan. I'm sorry. I- Come on in. It was my plan, too, so I'm an idiot. If I remember, we said we were going to do pizza. You wanna still do that, or you got something else in mind? KIRSTEN Did you already know you were going to do this when I hired you? Or did you think about it after? Like a reaction to the pressures of the job? Did you look at all the fear around you, the pain, the randomness, and think, "I'm gonna become a fucking vigilante"? You and your henchman, your big, bald hitman who crippled Matty Willis and Wade Pardo, and almost killed Anton Spangler. CHANCE Kirsten, pl- KIRSTEN No. CHANCE You cannot believe that I would ever hurt you. KIRSTEN I don't know what you'll do. CHANCE You want me to explain? KIRSTEN I don't know how a doctor, whose calling- no, whose responsibility it is to heal, can explain this. You've risked everything I've worked for my whole life. The clinic I built, the community. CHANCE That was not intention. KIRSTEN The only hope for all these people whose lives were almost been destroyed, and for what? CHANCE For those people. For them. For Clara Santiago. KIRSTEN What are you talking about? CHANCE Clara is not afraid any more. She can sleep at night. She's starting to heal. She's starting to trust. KIRSTEN Because you hurt the man who hurt her. CHANCE Yes. KIRSTEN Because you turned him into a victim, your victim. CHANCE What about us? Who helps us? We sit in so much misery that it starts to leak out around the edges. Don't tell me you haven't felt the weight of that. KIRSTEN Of course I do. That's when I go somewhere and sit on a beach and thank my lucky fucking stars. CHANCE Listen, I'm not talking about burnout. I'm talking about a fundamental shift in psyche. There are no excuses. There's only reasons. There's only a threshold, after which I cannot sit and inhale my patients' pain without doing something, without at least breathing it out. So yeah, I breathed it out. And in that breath was fire, and I liked it. KIRSTEN I thought because we weren't in love, that I saw you clearly, but you have always been this person, and I never even noticed. I just handed my respect and trust and my patients over because I assumed they'd be safe with you. CHANCE Patients are safe with me. KIRSTEN No! Stop saying that. Stop justifying this. I'll have somebody pack your office. Don't come back to the Unit, not ever again. DI Merry Christmas. VAN Whoa, shit. Black Talon nines? They discontinued these. How'd you find them? DI I'm a magic magician. They come with strings. Barrio Cazadores, you know them? VAN Fuck yeah. They're the bad shit. Why? DI Someplace local they hang? VAN You might find some at that gun range off 680, maybe a couple at Romero's on the southside. DI Where's their place? VAN La Cerve, off 16th, but don't go there. Okay? LEXI Hey, you got any more room? NICOLE Sure. Hey, I'll be right back. Hey, I just. I wanted to apologize. BRUCE That's unnecessary, but thanks. NICOLE What you said last night. My former friend, her mom told her basically the same thing once. Consider the worst possible consequence, and if you can live with it, before you act. And that made a lot of sense to me. BRUCE Well, we all struggle with remembering that, Nicole. I have, too, you know? But taking responsibility is how we turn things around. That, and remembering to let other people help us. TANNER Bruce, ride's here. JODI All right, we're leaving in ten minutes. Grab your packs. Anyone that needs the bathroom, go now. Make sure you put those fires out. GILYARDI Hey. LAMBERT Hey. GILYARDI You know how I was looking into that big, bald bad guy thing for you? The VOVC goodwill thing? LAMBERT Yeah. GILYARDI I did a deep dive into their computers, went into their patient list, started making some phone calls off the record. Well, you're not gonna fucking believe what I found out. MO Hey, dumbshit. That's our dumpster. DI Sorry, man, just looking for some food. MO Well, that's our food, dumbshit. DI Hector Ibarra. MO You. DI El Martillo. You know him? You expecting him here? When? Where is he? CAPTAIN Hey! Hey! You gonna cut that donkey's throat or what? You're supposed to be the doorman. How you gonna be a doorman if you can't watch the fucking door? And you, asking about El Martillo? Fuck you, too. DI Lorena. CAPTAIN Lorena? What about her? DI First, I speak with Hector. CAPTAIN First, no knife, big guy. Good. Good. DI Ow! Oh! CHANCE We have joint custody. She does not have the legal. She does not have the legal right to send our child out of the state without my consent. Now, will you put Nicole on the phone, please. Well then, you drive out there, you get her, and put her on the phone. Or you know what? I will. I will drive out there with my lawyer right fucking now. DETECTIVE LACEY Dr. Chance? Sir, I'm Detective Lacey. This is Detective Mendez, San Francisco Police. Can we talk to you, please? CHANCE Talk to me about what? DETECTIVE LACEY If it's okay with you, we'd rather do it at Bayview Station. CHANCE Well, no, it's not okay. Am I under arrest? DETECTIVE LACEY You can be, if you want. CHANCE On what charge? DETECTIVE LACEY The aggravated assault and battery of a man named Dawson Pitt. Okay? So. what's it gonna be? Sir?
