"Was it not the cause of death?" "It was probably meant to be, but it didn't get the job done." "See these curtain rings?" "How they're bent, like they were pulled on by the victim during the struggle?" "Add the empty liquor bottles wiped clean of prints." "In my opinion, this death scene?" "Definitely staged."

"Would her messages still be there?" "Uh, hypothetically, if her phone is what we call a burner or a prepaid, and there was still time left on it, then yes, you could access her messages." "Yeah, but wouldn't I need her passcode?" "That's harder, yes." "Of course, if you had the actual phone and it opens with a thumbprint, the body's still at the morgue..." "Oh, my God."

"We'll know more when we get back the tox screen." "But he was caffeinated to the gills." "[ Clicks pen ]" "Could caffeine have been a factor in his death?" "No. [ Sighs ] But it would mean your victim was wide awake when he was forcibly drowned, which would explain the foam and bathwater in his lungs."

"It's a dead person's cell number, and Sharon said I could ask you guys about how to get the passcode for her messages." "Well, most voicemail passcodes use four digits, meaning you only have about 10,000 possible combinations." "So if you start right now, you could probably crack it in six months." "Six months?" "And that's mainly because most message systems will lock you out after three wrong tries, and then you gotta wait to give it another go."

"She was in my room, too." "You think she took my pills?" "No, she usually asks." "You know, Lieutenant, if the murderer tried to sedate Mr. Egan by dumping Valium into his energy drink and found a way into his room, it might've been surprising to find him still awake and lying in the bathtub." "That would explain the hair dryer and the struggle afterwards..." "Oh, thank you." "Thank you, Sherlock Holmes." "As you will recall, I was the first person to point out that our victim probably had been drugged." "I'll call Morales, have him focus his tox panel on variants of Valium."

"Because I was frickin' starving." "Oh, my god." "Murdered?" "I had no idea Brad would be that jealous." "You think your fiancé killed Danny?" "Last night, right after her told me that I couldn't run away with Danny," "I punched Brad in the face, and he didn't even try to hit me back." "He just stood there, crying like a baby." "I never thought he would take it out on Danny." "Brad's so sensible." "Okay, here's an idea." "Since we still have the groom present, why don't we reunite this happy couple?" "Do we still have our privacy sign somewhere?" "Oh, the privacy sign." "Just a little bit of advice, Brad." "You can still save this wedding, but it's gonna take complete honesty, because if you begin the marriage any other way, it's not gonna last." "Oh, to hell with that!" "Brad, you say whatever it takes." "We have less than two hours here." "Look, let me go in there with him..." "Hey, hey!" "We're gonna give them a little..." "So shut the hell up." "[ Radio chatter ]" "Uh, Mike, Julio?" "Would you mind giving the bride and groom some time to talk entirely on their own with, uh, no one listening in?" "Just to discuss what their future could be." "Oh." "Privacy." "Uh, Lisa, you want me to clear some of this?" "Uh, no." "I may pick a little." "Good luck." "Hope you guys work it out before the wedding starts." "Wow." "It's, uh, been a... rough 24 hours, huh?" "Gee, you think?" "Can't we just be our old, regular selves for a minute?" "Please." "I know that when your blood sugar dips, you get a little emotional." "And I was sore from all the waxing." "Well, tell me about it." "My back is on fire." "[ Chuckles ]" "Okay." "When I asked you to be my wife, it meant that we shouldn't have any secrets from each other." " [ Chuckles ] What?" " Hey." "I agree with him." " Oh, my God." " That's part of what it means to be married." "Before we call off wedding, why don't we try being completely truthful and see if that makes a difference?" "[ Breathes shakily ]" "Okay, look..." "I'm sorry about this, but when we were going out together our last year in college," "I slept with Danny." "That's it?" "So what?" "I did, too." "What?" "You slept with Danny?" "Look, today isn't about the past or some experimental phase that we went through in college once or twice or six times." "Today is about our future, about looking ahead, about building a home for ourselves while constructing whole neighborhoods for other people." "Oh, God." "In all of this wedding craziness," "I keep forgetting about just how great our brand can be." " But you never do." " Honestly, Lisa, dead Danny can't stop us from fulfilling our destiny." "Only we can do that." "Boy, oh, boy." "These two were made for each other." "[ Sighs ] It's funny." "You're basically saying the same things my father said last night, only better." "Wait." "What did your father say to you?" "I'm mad already." "You know I wasn't myself, and I called him to explain why I had to leave you and run off with Danny." "You really slept with him?" "Don't obsess." "Stay focused." "You told your father that you were leaving, and..." "And he burst into the room, without even knocking, yelling that I was about to destroy the biggest merger since Exxon Mobil." "Well, that is not just a terrible analogy." "It's also a gross exaggeration." "And a truly awful way to treat the only child in the world that he can really count on." "The Sloans are staying in a hotel, right?" "Yeah." "So?" "Well, how could anybody burst into her room without knocking?" "Somehow or other, Brad, no matter how upset I get or how many times I fall apart, you always seem to know exactly what I need to hear." "[ Sniffles ]" "Could you let them go, please, now that they're in the right frame of mind?" "And... and look, let's not get so bogged down over these room keys." "I-I paid a billion dollars for a block of rooms at that hotel." "They were all in my name." "[ Keycards clatter ]" "I got a key to each one." "It's standard." "Standard!" "So why you had to read us our rights, I have no idea." "Mr. Sloan, you and your family were mirandized because we can prove that Daniel Egan was murdered..." "And your daughter is responsible." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "Daniel Egan committed suicide." "Well, no, he didn't." "First of all, someone drugged him." "And when that didn't work, a hair dryer was tossed into his bathtub." "And when that didn't work, his head was pushed under the water, and he was forcibly drowned." "Sounds thorough." "Daddy, Lisa, does have a temper." "Don't talk about your sister that way!" "You love her!" "Besides, Lisa does not have enough strength to drown a guy." "That's what your daughter's defense attorney will tell us." "And just to make sure that we've ruled out all other suspects..." "Mr. Sloan." "We're gonna take a better look at your wrist." "Sharon:" "And we're going to take that better look in the dark." "Janet: [ Gasps ] Oh, my God." "What..." "W-what... what... what is that glowing all over Stuart's watch?" "Epsom salt." "And it was also on the hair dryer we pulled from Danny Egan's bathtub." "I have it, Captain." "I have it." "Sharon:" "Good job, Buzz." "You know, uh, the Sloans might like that clip added to their wedding video." "Oh!" "Uh, sorry to interrupt." "I just wanted to say we found all of Dana's prescriptions" " in the hotel trash." " Oh." "So, whose prints do you think we're gonna find on all those medicine bottles, Mr. Sloan, other than your daughter's?" "Or would you like to take the next hour and a half to check everything?" "Hour and a half?" "!" "I have guests coming any second now!" "Oh, Stu." "Stuart:" "Okay, I'm a father who worked his whole life to give his daughter the wedding of her dreams." "[ Clears throat ] I'm out more than 400 grand already, and, um, along the way," "I've had to make some tough calls." "And between dealing with the caterer and the florist and those photographers, and that drug addict..." "I admit, I might... might... have made some mistakes." "As fathers do." " Do we really have the medicine bottles?" " You have to ask?" "But, and this is very important, please don't punish these lovebirds for something that I very... very possibly did do myself..." "And which I will fully reveal after they're legally wed." " Nope." "Not good enough." " Oh, come on!" "I told you almost everything!" "Can't we talk again after the reception?" "That all depends." "Did you enter Mr. Egan's hotel room intending to murder him?" "Of course not." "I slipped a load of Dana's drugs into the gallon of Red Bull he was drinking." "When he passed out, I was gonna get the bellman to help me take the idiot downstairs to our rental van and drive him to our house." "I had given him enough Valium to sleep through the damn honeymoon." "Uh, but you knew Danny was an addict." "His tolerance level for Valium is probably as high as mine." " And Red Bull has caffeine!" " To our house?" "Which room were you putting him in?" "Not in my new solarium." "Captain, there was a van waiting at the valet when we drove up on that domestic disturbance call." "Okay, maybe there was no intent before you let yourself" " into Danny's room." " That's what I'm saying." "[ Stammers ] What happened to Danny, that was..." "Well, that was just me running out of options." "When I showed up in the room, not only was he not out cold, but the jackass was still singing that terrible song." "I have no memory of..." "of picking up a hair dryer... or throwing it in the tub, or holding his head underwater till he went..." "Glub glub glub." "Okay." "Now we've heard enough." "Andrea, what do you think?" "If he agrees to eventually write all that down," "Mr. Sloan may participate in the marriage ceremony and stay through the first dance with his daughter, provided the police escort him every moment and he doesn't try to get away." "Mr. Sloan, do agree to the very generous terms offered to you in front of your family by the State and witnessed by the L.A.P.D.?" "I do." "Then by the power vested in me by the State of California," "I will allow you to attend your daughter's wedding, and we will go with you." "More guests?" "!" "Oh, jeez." "Hey, don't expect the steak or lobster." " It's chicken or nothing." " Oh, no, no, no." "We also have some salmon and a lovely vegetarian offering." "Dana:" "Do you think that there's any Valium left?" "Because I only need three." "Well, Officer Watson." "Your first 24 hours in the Reserve ranks has been very interesting." "And productive." " Congratulations." " Thank you, Captain." "I hope everyone still feels that way while we're missing the game." "Oh, we are not missing that game." "[ Door opens ]" "Man on TV:" "And as the sellout crowd takes the field for the greatest fireworks display on the West Coast, let's relive one last time that amazing walk-off grand slam." "I tell you, folks, if there was only one night to be in stadium this season, maybe in this decade, maybe this century, tonight was it." "A come-from-behind victory in the bottom of the ninth with two outs, full count, and Adrian Gonzalez hits the ball deep, clearing the bleachers." "Like the birth of America itself... __" "Why do you have your uniform with you, sir?" "Oh, um, I, uh, texted Patrice a picture of me in it, and she said that when I come over tonight," " maybe I should put it on." " [ "The Stars and Stripes Forever" playing ]" "Well, you know, before... [ Chuckles ]" "Oh, my God." "Do we have to hear this?" "!" "It cannot be unheard." "Oh, we only have about a minute to get up to the roof before the fireworks start!" "It's not gonna be like being in the stadium, but..." "Yeah, but we can see it from up there." "Tao:" "I never give up a chance to watch things explode." "In fact, I can make a Roman candle with an empty beer bottle, aluminum foil, a household cleaner..." " Up." "Up." "Let's go up." " Oh." "Let's go, you guys!" "We'll get the next elevator." "Y'all go ahead." " Rusty?" " Yeah, I'll be right there." "Sharon:" "Come on, come on." "Go, go, go, go." "Provenza:" "Buzz, can you get me a glass of white wine?" "I still taste those shrimp puffs from the wedding reception." "Um, hey, Buzz?" ""Paloma." That's a Spanish word, right?" "Yeah, for "dove."" "For "dove." Oh." " Thanks." " You're welcome." "Lieutenant, may I ask what rating you gave me for my first day on the job?" "93." "That'll be higher than any other reserve officer in your class, but still leaves room for improvement, like knowing when to keep your mouth shut." "But we did end up solving a murder." "And that's great." "Look, I love my job." " [ Fireworks whistling and exploding ]" " And you..." "Why... why, I don't mind you at all." "What a compliment, Lieutenant." "I don't mind you at all, either." "In fact, some days, I even admire you." "As well you should." "But learning how to prioritize our duties in law enforcement, especially as they conflict with the Dodgers." "Well, that takes time." "Tell you what," "I'll teach you when to speak up as a reserve officer, if you'll show me how to operate that great new vehicle we were in the other night." "Oh, sir, I don't think that's a good..." "Now you listen to me, Mario Andretti." "You wanna keep getting good scores in the Reserves, and I want that Explorer." "It's as simple as that." "Hey, Rusty, huh?" "Come on, fireworks!" "Yeah, just a second, Lieutenant." "Hi, this is Alice..." "You have 24 new messages, and 6 saved messages." "First new message..."
