"Previously on "Life"" "Detective, I have something you might be interested in" " The Bank shootout" " That was 15 years ago" "You should ask your partner what happened to all that money" " But Bobby said" " I don't know what he said but he was working the barricades, four blocks out" " Hi" " Hello I'm Olivia" "The thing about Olivia, is she's marrying your father" " I want to tell you about my dream." " Were there clowns in it?" "No." "I don't like dreams with clowns." "Who does?" "No, there were no clowns." "There were solar panels." "An array of solar panels." " Solar panels?" " I want to buy a solar farm." " You already have an orange grove." " Now I want a solar farm." "Energy, Ted, made out of light." "Solar farms don't turn a huge profit." "The profit will be in our small contribution... to restoring the natural harmony of our planet." "I don't think there's a column in the spreadsheet... under restoration of planetary harmony." "I want that solar farm." "It came to me in a dream." "In the back by the soda pop." "You're not going to like it though." "No ID." "They look like Persian kids, though." "Wrote it in oil." "Hate crime." "Skin heads." "Cash in the register was untouched." "Nothing stolen." "Just these two." "Two dead Iranian Americans in here, lots of angry people out there." "Get more units up here." "There were three of them." "Early twenties." "Wearing ski masks..." " and each had a gun." " What happened then?" "They were by the cooler making a lot of noise." "One of them was saying, "Go back to where you came from"." "The other kept saying, "This is where I came from"." "Then I heard two shots and then it was quiet." "Don't move!" "Just firecrackers." "M-80's." "No guns." "Just firecrackers." "No guns." " Let's control this crowd." " Yes." "You threw those!" " More units?" " More units." " You're not listening to me." " No, you're not listening to me." "I'll ask you one more time to step out of the store." "I got this, Officer." "All yours, Detective." "Why is she so upset?" "Amir, my brother, he was coming here after class." "He never came?" "Is he your brother, Amir?" "No." "But those are his friends, Rashne and Daria." "What's she saying?" "What if Amir came here with Rashne and Daria?" "If he's not here, they must have taken him." " Who?" " Whoever did this to them." "Go home." "These kids thought they were home." "Nice job out there, Bobby." "The knucklehead with the tire iron?" "It's nothing." "It's nothing because you did something." "If you hadn't done anything it might have been a number of things." "Do you have to light him up?" "Any number of things." "If he hit the other guy, the whole place goes up." "A butterfly flaps his wings and halfway across the world..." " a hurricane forms." " See?" "No matter where he starts." "He always ends up with something like that." "Something." "Nothing." "Anything." "A butterfly." "A hurricane..." "It'll make a good story." "It's no Bank of Los Angeles, but at least it's true." " What did you say?" " Nothing." "No." "You said something." "See?" "Something." "Nothing." "It's inevitable." "You mention that butterfly and I'll rip its wings off." "What did you say about the Bank of Los Angeles?" "It's just a story I like to tell." "What kind of story?" "You're stepping over a line here." "You might want to step back." "Full house." "Yeah, fbi, Homeland Security, the Mayor's Office..." "Hate Crime Unit..." "This is still a homicide, first and foremost." "Unless the Federal Government is requesting..." "LAPD to relinquish its jurisdiction... it will be handled as a homicide... and run by LAPD homicide detectives." "Rashne Talebi and Daria Ovesi." "Each one shot once in the head at close range." "Both are third year students at Business School, honors students." "But had juvie beefs for doing pot." "Records were expunged." "Three white males wearing ski masks... left the white counter guy alone... put the victims in the cooler, wrote "Go Home"... in motor oil on the cooler door." "Amir Darvashi, classmate of the victims... was seen at the gas station at the time of the shooting." "Hasn't been seen since." "Witnesses said they saw a van leaving... the parking lot at high speed just after the shooting." "Color could be blue, light gray or beige." "Pull over every vehicle that even looks close." "This neighborhood was predominantly white... but has had a heavy Persian influx since the '80s." "Now it's evenly split." "This needs to close and close fast." "I do not need a war here." "I've arranged to meet the owner of the gas station, Mary Anne Farmer." "And you?" "Mother of the missing boy, Amir." "See what I can find out about him and his friends." "Charlie?" "I have one word for you." " "Photodiode"." " I don't know what that means." "Transduced light energy." "Energy from light... from the sun." "We can do this?" "I know what I said at breakfast... but I've been thinking about what you said about your dream." "You're right, we're choking." "Choking on fossil fuel." "You found an array?" "On my way to see it now." "Ted." "Olivia" " Olivia?" " I told her to come by the house" "So we could talk." "Charlie, you didn't tell me that." "No." "There are things I don't tell you." "But..." "Olivia." "She's coming by." "Explain something came up and I can't get away." "Thanks." "I was going to see the solar farm." "Maybe she'd like to go with me." "Yeah, right." "Because women really like "photo-voltaic" arrays." " Detective Crews?" " Ms. Farmer?" "Mary Anne." "You look surprised." "No, I..." " No." "I guess I just..." " Someone older." "Maybe." "Careful of having expectations." "They only lead to disappointment." "Where did you hear that?" "I didn't hear it." "That one I had to learn." "Is it okay to go inside?" " I won't disturb the evidence?" " No, it's okay." "This is my first store." "Your first?" "How many do you have?" "Six." "But this is my first." "He's a good student." "His friends are too." "His friends aren't so good, Mrs. Darvashi." "They've both been arrested for selling drugs." " But not my Amir." " No, not your Amir." "Those two, the ones who were killed..." "He's not like them." "Look at what a good student he is." "All "A's"." "He would have called his mother, if he could." "Someone is stopping him." "Find him." "Find my Amir." "To die that way." "To do that to another person, that's so terrible." "Go home." "I was wondering if you knew why they wrote that." "I suppose out of hate." "But it's in your store." "It made me think, why here?" "Could it have something to do with this place?" "Mary Anne, we have surveillance tape... from your camera before it was destroyed." " I'd like you to look at it." " Of course." "Should I come to the station?" "No." "Actually I have it here." "What?" "In that?" " Wow, that's like..." " Living in the future." "Exactly." "Living in the future." "Do you know one of them?" "Can you make it closer?" "You know one of the boys, don't you?" "They're wearing masks." "But you can see their eyes." "That one." "In the middle." "The one who shot the camera." "I know him." "Do you know his name?" "Farmer." "Jeffrey Farmer." "Farmer?" "Is he your brother?" "No, Detective." "Jeffrey..." "Jeffrey's my son." "I moved here from Ohio when I was fifteen... pregnant with Jeffrey." "I found work in a gas station." "I bought that station." "I bought another, then I bought four more." "Somewhere in there Jeffrey grew up." "Somewhere in there,..." "Jeffrey grew away from me." "It started in high school." "Hatred of all immigrants, Persians." "Do you know the names of the people he runs with?" "They're surf rats." " He and his two buddies." " Where can we find them?" "They live out of that van." "I know he did a terrible thing... but you will bring him back, won't you?" "Trace that." "Now." "We're going to help you." "We're going to find him." "He's just going to buy all this?" "If he wants." " He saw it in a dream." " Apparently." "It's nice he still has dreams after what he came through." "I don't think I could do what he did... be that strong." "I don't know." "You seem pretty strong to me." "Everybody turning their back on you, your own loved ones, walking away." "That's all we really have in this world." "The ones we love, the ones who love us." "Energy out of light." "Charlie likes light." "I can imagine." "No, you can't." "No, I can't." "Of course not." "How could I?" "What's so funny?" "We're surrounded by all this free energy." "And why is that funny?" "We're out of gas." "It's not funny." "Disposable cell phone." "They'll use another next time." "Call coming in on her cell." "Hello?" "I want the cash from the dope he and his friends are dealing" "Tell us where it is or Amir ends up like them" "It's not about immigrants." "It's about drugs and money." " What have we learned?" " It's always about drugs and money." "I have nothing to do..." "Who let this happen?" "Who let these women near each other?" "I just want..." "I just wanted to apologize." "I don't know what she's saying." "She wants to know what kind of mother raises a son to do this." "What kind of mother raises that kind of animal?" "Tell her..." "I would give my life for the life of her son." "Tell her I know how much she must love him." " Okay." " Drugs and money." "Search Amir's house." "I think I should go." "At some point we'll have to put you on the phone with your son." "We both know that would be a mistake." "You're going to kill my son, aren't you?" "I didn't know you spoke Farsi." "My mother's Persian." "She spoke it to me." "What about your father?" "He forbids it when he was in the house." "My son is not a drug dealer." "He studies." "He plays videogames." "He doesn't get into trouble." "Tell her he is in trouble and we need her to be honest." "She says he's a good son." "He studies and plays videogames." "I'll connect Amir's computer to the LAPD server... so they can access it in the conference room." "I've never seen that screen before." "The Department doesn't let geeks have guns... and they don't let detectives have this level of security." "Reese?" "We were in the elevator with Stark... you had a weird reaction when he mentioned the Bank shootout." "Did I?" "I thought it was weird because you weren't on the force then." "I was 12 when it happened." "Family stuff." "I know I've been gone a while, but are computers supposed to do this?" "There's a computer problem." "Funny noises." "There's also flickering lights." "Family stuff." "Jack Reese?" "Dani's father?" "Some kind of liquid in here." "Don't drink and type." "SWAT leader, Jack Reese?" "If Amir was hiding drug money... he hasn't recorded it there." "It's basic business schoolwork." "The kid is smart, though." " Yeah." "Straight "A's"." " Nothing in here either." "Just usual stuff for a 20 year old, music and porn." " Not very good porn, though." " Sorry you had to see that." "I'll cope somehow." "Anything else?" "You sure this was the only computer in the house?" "Why?" "There's reference to a file but I can't find the file." " What's called?" " Farah." "Farah?" "That's a girl's name." "And a number." "Farah, level 10." "Level 10?" "She must be hot." "Farah?" "No." "No Farah." "What about you, Shahnaz?" "Does Amir have any friends named Farah?" "No, he doesn't have any friends named Farah." "You think there has to be another computer?" "There's a file reference... but no file by that name on this computer." "He's a good son." "He studies, he plays videogames." "A game console is like a computer, isn't it?" "Not like one." "It is one." "It's just a hard drive with games on it." "The object of this game is to save Princess Farah." "You think you can get to level 10?" "Detective, I'm 30 years old, I live with my mother and..." "I have a Captain Kirk costume in my closet." "Ted, can I ask you a question?" "Okay." "You seem like a nervous sort to me." "Do I?" "You were a Wall Street big shot, were you nervous back then?" "No." " Did prison make you nervous?" " No." "Olivia, you make me nervous." "It's why I didn't pay attention to the gas gauge." "Why we're stranded." "You..." "You make me nervous." "That's all right, Ted." "It's human nature." "Nothing to be ashamed about." "Sweet hour of prayer" "Sweet hour of prayer" "My dad used to sing it to me when we camped when I was a kid." "It's pretty." "Go on." "Are you sure?" "That calls me from a world of care and bids me at my father's throne" "Make all my wants and wishes known" "In seasons of distress and grief my soul is often" " It's not Amir." " Not Jeffrey." "Three surf rats hit that gas station." "Now one ends up dead." "Why do you kill someone who pulls a job with you?" "You're desperate, you've had a disagreement." "Some sort of violent disagreement." "Like Davis says, it's about drugs and money." "Yeah, I guess." "Drugs and money." "Sweet hour of prayer" " Hello?" " Time's up, little sister" "Give me what I want, or your brother gets something he doesn't want" "Got it?" "Tell him you found the information about the money." "You'll trade it for your brother." "You can do it, Shahnaz." " Yeah?" " Jeffrey called in again" "He'll exchange Amir for information about the money." " You're not going to do that." " Of course I'm not." "I'll let them think we're going to do that." "Rose Bowl, 45 minutes." "And Detectives, this guy is responsible for three deaths." "I'd like to end this now." " How long have we been awake?" " You sure we are awake?" "Maybe this is a dream." "Maybe life is a dream, and we wake up when we die." "Sun's going to come up soon, right?" "Something's not right, Reese." "Yeah." "Tell me about it." " This is McAllister." " This is Detective Crews." "Talk to me about these spreadsheets." "Yeah." "Okay." "Amir and his friends had a nice little drug business." "Three smart USC kids... a little business school, a lot of drugs, you got an enterprise." "So Jeffrey and his surf rat friends... bought those drugs from Amir and company." "Jeffrey figured Amir and company... are sitting on some cash." "They take Amir hostage because he was the accountant." " There's more in there." " I don't think there is." "You do something like this to hide a secret." " More secret than drugs and money?" " Keep looking." "It's late, Detective." "I've looked." "I have a Zen exercise... that will give you the energy you need to finish the task." "Yeah." "I don't really believe that stuff." "Try it." "Imagine me..." " Okay." " Imagine me walking into that room... walking into that room you're in" "Okay." "And there you are, not having done what I asked." "Okay." "Okay, there's something here." "There's a column here that doesn't make any sense." "In what way does it make any sense?" "It seems to be a separate business." "It's got about $93,000 in an off shore account." "It's coded with three initials, "M.A.F."" "I need an address." "Mary Anne Farmer." ""M.A.F."" "Turn the car around." "He's not going to that meet." "This is about something else." "He's going to his mother's house." "They say when you leave" "You know what you need" "That's not Jeffrey either." "to fade so far away" "Where are Mary Ann and Amir?" "So far away from me" "He took them in his car." "So Jeffrey and his surf rat friends... kill the two Persian kids and take Amir." "Then Jeffrey kills his two friends and takes his mother and Amir." "He wants her money too." " He wants more than that." " How do you know?" "She told me." "Mary Anne told me." " You awake?" " Of course." "Sleep is for babies." "Where's the money?" "Where is it physically?" "I guess you could say it's in the Bahamas." "I wish I was in the Bahamas." " How would Jeffrey get to it?" " Wire transfer to any bank." "Is that something we can track?" "Just sign here, here and here." "And I'll go and get your cash." "And you, Mr. Darvishi, you'll be needing a wire transfer too?" "Yes, please." "He's going to kill us." "That's right, Amir." "He's going to kill us as soon as he gets the money." " It's going to be okay." " No." "It won't be okay." " Yes, it will." " No." "No more talking." "Are you going to kill us as soon as we leave the bank?" "He killed my friends, I saw him kill his own friends." "Then I might as well kill you now." ""Go Home"?" "That's what you wrote on the glass." ""Go Home"." "Is that what you want them to do, or is it what you want to do?" "Do you want to go home, Jeffrey?" "How do you know my name?" "I not only know your name, I know what you want." "I want this Arab dead." "He's Persian." "Not Arab." "He's Arab if I say he's Arab." "In 10 seconds he's going to be one dead Arab." "But that's not what you really want." "What you really want is what Amir has." "He has money." "I'm going to take his money." "And I'll walk out of here, or put his brain on the floor." "That's not what I mean, Jeffrey." "You know what I mean." " You know what Amir has." " Shut up." "I thought it was about the money, it's always about the money." " The drugs and the money, right?" " Right." "But your mother told me the truth." "Whatever she said is a lie." "She's made of lies." "She told Amir's mother... she knows just how she feels." "She knows just how much she must love him." "Jeffrey..." "You shut it now!" "How does she know that?" "How could she know how much a mother loves her son?" " Jeffrey." " I said both of you shut up!" "Because she doesn't love you." "So she must not have been talking about you." "Because she loves Amir too." "And that's what you want, isn't it?" "What Amir has." "What your mother's giving him." "It's love." "Right?" "SWAT Two In position" "And something else, too." "Mom?" "Good morning." "In a room with strangers, you talk to me but I don't know you, like every one I see" "It means be here when I could blow it away" "Does it really matters?" "When I found you this way" "Amir would come into my store while he was still in high school." "I had a lot of soft cash in my business... he showed me there were better things to do than keep it in the closet." "And you fell in love." "He wasn't like the rest of the kids." "He wasn't like Jeffrey and his friends." "Amir wanted to be something." "He worked at it." "The kind of kid who could start out pumping gas... and end up owning six gas stations?" "Yeah, I think maybe one more just to get me home." "Thanks." " Going out?" " Yeah." "I got some stuff to do." "All of the good friends" " Did you go to the solar farm?" " Yeah." " Can we make something out of it?" " Yeah." "We can." "I like that." "Yeah." "I like it too." "And in your own way" "Who are you?" "Who are you?" "Who are you?"
