"In practice, maybe." "What, two games?" "No wonder you don't wear your ring." "You didn't earn it the way Curtis did." "I may not have played as good as Curtis, but I know the game better than anyone." "And look who's winning now." "Yeah, but not back then." "Two months after graduation, Rita's Curtis' wife." "We pulled Curtis' phone records from four years ago." "You called his house at least, what, twice a month?" "Yeah, but not to talk to Curtis." "You rang to talk to Rita." "You knew he was no good for her." "You were hoping one day she'd dump the loser husband." "You were trying to get her out of a bad marriage." "You came a father figure to her son." "You were trying to steal another man's family away from them." "[ Clears throat ]" "Not that there's anything wrong with that." "We have a warrant to search your premises." "What?" "[ Police radio chatter ]" "(Jim) After you." "Detectives." "How you doing, man?" "What?" "Let's go." "Why does the coach have an O.K. Sugar employee parking pass on his windshield?" "Ooh." "Haul a lot of dead weight with that." "I don't know about Chicago, but in this part of the world, you need a winch to haul all sorts of stuff out of the muck." "Or bury it." "Hey!" "What you doing to my truck?" "What are you doing to that trash?" "I'm helping the coach out." "Well, you're not helping him out inside." "That job looks like something for the assistant to the assistant of the assistant coaches." "Just don't touch my truck." "No problem." "Small problem." "Our warrant doesn't cover his truck, only evidence recovered inside of the residence." "Oh, yeah?" "[ Sighs ]" "Good enough for me." "(Carlos) The ligature marking on Curtis' neck matched the patterns on the winch." "Daniel looked at ropes and chains, not cables." "Hmm." "Can't wait to tell him." "If Curtis' body was in the back of Ron's truck, his DNA's gonna be all over it." "If?" "I found skin and blood on the winch and in the flatbed." "Also on the skin were traces of lye." "Just like on the body." "That's weird." "It's not weird." "It's evidence." "It's hard to believe Ron would be so desperate to be part of the team that he'd kill someone." "Not if Coach Ward put him up to it." "Some people will do anything to get ahead." "What?" "Esther Feldman's Bat Mitzvah." "Yeah?" "Esther Feldman, as in daughter to Ben Feldman." "Judge Ben Feldman." "Oh, yeah, that's right." "Ben is a judge." "Judge Ben Feldman." "He's on the FDLE advancement committee." "Is he?" "Hmm." "I didn't know that." "You're Chief Medical Examiner." "What's next?" "President of death?" "Keeper of corpses?" "What?" "You can't be promoted anymore." "I like meeting new people." "No, you don't." "You're like me." "No, I'm not." "And that's why you're alone." "It's Marisol, isn't it?" "You're networking to please your wife." "That's what happens when the Coast Guard rescues you with just your clothes on your back." "You want crazy things, like success." "And all off the back of little Esther Feldman." "You ought to be ashamed of yourself, using a 12-year-old kid to win points with a woman." "Back at you, big daddy." "For the record?" "Mm-hmm." "Jeff turned 13 today." "Really?" "Mm-hmm." "And, yeah, I would do anything for him, even kill if I had to, but I got no reason to kill Curtis Taylor." "But Coach Ward does." "Hey, that's a good man you're talking about." "So I keep hearing." "You know what Coach Ward said about you." "Night of the murder, you left practice early." "Where'd you go?" "Had some personal business to attend to." "Personal business, Ron?" "Sounds like a bit of an oxymoron." "[ Sighs ]" "She told me not to tell." "My ex-wife." "We were having sex." "Really?" "Yeah, surprised me, too." "So, sex with the ex isn't a regular occurrence." "No." "She came on to me over at the practice field." "Damn good-looking, too." "She had her hair done and everything." "I mean, I wasn't gonna pass up a chance to hit that again." "So you see why I can't tell you who it is, don't you?" "Oh, being a gentleman, you wouldn't want to besmirch a lady's reputation in case you wanted to hit that again -- I get it." "[ Chuckles ]" "[ Bell dings ]" "We're closed." "This'll only take a minute." "Hey, no, the game's about to start." "And DeAndre's playing tonight." "Ooh!" "Thank the lord." "We gonna kick some ass tonight." "[ Telephone ringing ]" "Found out from a clerk that Curtis had filed papers to bring DeAndre back to Texas." "Well, you couldn't let that happen." "Come on, I don't want to miss the kickoff." "If we got to go, you got to go." "I didn't think a woman was strong enough to kill Curtis, but three women?" "I did not see that." "You guys are Rita's support network." "You each bring something different to the party." "Crystal's your granddaughter, right?" "You keep Crystal out of this." "It's okay, Remelle." "Don't let him get to you." "You told Curtis that Crystal wanted to talk to him about DeAndre, so he came here." "Probably sat in this chair..." "Where you whacked him over the head with your little friend here." "Then..." "You wheeled him over to the sink, where you drowned him in soapy water, with traces of lye." ""C.J.'s hair relaxer."" "Main ingredient [Chuckles] Lye." "But you needed a way to move the body, which is why Vivian's been having sex with her ex-husband, Ron, 'cause you needed his truck with a winch." "Don't worry." "He's been a complete gentleman." "Left your name out of it till the end." "But he did tell you when the next controlled burn was scheduled." "Only..." "You guys didn't plan on the wind changing." "You can't prove any of this." "Do all your customers bleed so much?" "[ Bell dings ]" "Whoop-whoop." "[ Train whistle blows ]" "[ Indistinct shouting ]" "Going to the game?" "Can't." "Late for a party." "Declan, you do know that's a girl's bike, right?" "What can I say?" "Ladies love the rabbit prince." "You knew who that dead body was, didn't you?" "Yeah, he bought one of my rabbits, asked if I knew DeAndre." "He even gave me his card." "Why didn't you tell me?" "I didn't want DeAndre to get in trouble." "Besides, I knew you'd figure it out." "You the Five-O, man." "Didn't even need it." "No way." "No way!" "It's an Xbox 360!" "Oh, my gosh, mom!" "Thank you so much." "Yeah, yeah, that's, um, not from me, kiddo." "Who's it from?" "I have no idea." "[ Knock on door ]" "Excuse me." "(Jim) Ah." "I see I came at the right time." "That was too expensive." "Well, I can't justify buying it for myself." "This way, I get to come over here and play it." "Uh, can I call you later?" "'Cause we're kind of in the middle of something." "Jeff didn't tell you?" "Tell me...?" "He invited me to his party." "He said you're okay with it." "But you know what?" "If it's a problem..." "No, I mean, his grandma's here." "Ah." "Oh, my gosh." "Dude, thank you so much." "I take it you like it, huh?" "Oh, my gosh." "It's awesome." "Drinks are in the kitchen, so I'll go set up a game." "All right?" "I'm sorry to interrupt, but, uh, your daddy's on the phone." "And he'd like to wish you a Happy Birthday." "All right, great." "But why don't you take it in the other room?" "That way, y'all will have more privacy." "Okay, um, you set the game up." "I'm player number one." "Oh, hey, Jeff, you know what?" "Uh, next time, man." "I just came by to say Happy Birthday." "You know." "Yeah, see?" "Office never sleeps." "Okay, well, thank you." "All right." "Happy Birthday." "Thanks." "Thanks." "(Callie) Hey, Ray." "Oh, yeah, birthday boy's right here."
