"Put that gun down!" "Zoe." "Zoe." "Take your finger off the trigger, zoe." "I'm not talking to any cops!" "Zoe, I need you to put down your weapon." "We just wanna ask you a couple of questions." "Go ahead." "I'm afraid we're gonna have to do that down at the station." "But if you didn't do anything, it won't take long." "I didn't shoot percy!" "Then we can talk about who did." "What are you doin'?" "What are you doin'?" ""doth not behave itself unseemly," "Seeketh not her own..."" "Please leave me alone!" ""thinketh no evil." say it with me, zoe." "Say it with me."

"Yeah, teachers, parents, they all say the same" "She was really into her studies." "Which definitely tells me she was secretly seeing someone." "Someone her parents didn't approve of." "why hide it at school?" "maybe her friends wouldn't approve either." "Makes it more dangerous." "Could ask simone." "Maybe she heard rumors."

"While your gun was the same caliber" "As the one used to kill percy," "It's not the same gun." "I told you I didn't shoot him!" "Then what's with all this drama?" "We can't help you if you don't help us." "Okay?" "Where you there last night?" "I've been sleeping there sometimes," "Just until I can find a place to stay." "My key still works," "And the alarm code's still the same." "I sneak in after-hours." "Why didn't you just stay with percy?" "I was too embarrassed to tell him I had nowhere to go," "So I pretended I still worked there." "He came to pick me up," "And I talked him into hanging out..." "So we could spend some time alone." "We fell asleep," "And about 3:00 a.M., we heard a noise up front." "I knew the petroses" "Kept a gun under the counter..." "So I grabbed it." "And then that..." "It's okay, zoe." "You're safe here." "We saw him!" "he was just standing there." "He started shooting, and I froze." "I saw percy go down, and I ran." "I thought he'd come after me." "You saw the intruder?" "Not his face, but how he was dressed." "His uniform." "So, zoe, you're saying" "That the shooter was wearing a uniform?" "Yeah." "He was a cop." "We dumped kandace's cell phone." "She contacted a women's health clinic a week ago." "Stone and washington are checking her computer," "See if there's any names." "Go to the clinic." "Maybe kandace didn't go there alone." "thanks." "Thanks." "It's weird how simone was asking so many questions earlier." "13-year-old's morbid curiosity." "A cop's daughter's pointed questioning." "It's more than that." "We should clock it." "You, uh..." "Did..." "Did you do something to your hair?" "I changed it a bit." "Yeah, I can see that." "All right." "Who's driving?" "Do you remember seeing this young lady in here" "A few days ago?" "Looks a little familiar." "We get lots like that." "Well, we're only interested in this one." "Her name is kandace monroe." "She and her boyfriend came in," "Both scared out of their minds." "We told 'em there was a 24consent law," "Meaning they had to review all the materials for a day" "Before an appointment could be made." "O over so well." "What happened?" "They got into a big fight." "We had to ask them to leave." "Do you remember the boyfriend's name?" "I definitely can't give you that." "Look, we have a dead, pregnant 15-year-old," "And the baby's father is a definite person of interest." "Anything that you can do to help would really be appreciated." "I'm not allowed to give out that kind of information." "It could cost me my job." "We have a very strict confidentiality policy here." "You have a good day." "Thank you." "Lance brown, 15 years old." "Zoe fremont is the last person to see my son alive," "And she's not a suspect?" "We think she was actually a witness." "She says it might've been a cop who shot percy." "A cop?" "Do you know any who may have had a vendetta against you?" "I know I'm not aorite of the police department, but" "That's probably an understatement." "Look, I do my job, detective." "I defend my clients to the utmost of my ability," "And I don't make excuses for that." "It's never personal." "Okay." "Okay, well, look," "That--that's good to know, okay?" "There was this drug bust case that I had last month." "I accused a cop of lying under oath." "He ended up getting demoted." "I got some threatening e-mails from him." "Did you report this?" "I had this strange idea" "That I might not get much support from d.P.D." "Were these e-mails threatening enough to go after your family?" "You be the judge." ""you will pay for what you did to me and my family." "What goes around comes around."" "It might not have been personal for you, counselor..." "But it sure sounds personal to him." "I don't deny it." "I hate that son of a bitch." "He ruined my life." "Did you send those e-mails?" "Ten years on the job," "And this assbag concocts some kind of crap" "About me falsifying a report." "Like that, I'm back patrolling the streets" "And overseeing community programs." "So where were you" "At approximately 3:00 this morning?" "I was answering a home invasion outside of greektown." "And I got a partner, a report," "And a guy in holding to back me up." "All right." "We got any more questions," "You mind coming down to the station?" "I have no problem." "I got nothin' to hide." "You call, I'll be there with a union rep." "All right." "Thanks, man." "Give johnnie cochran a message for me." "Tell him if I was gonna kill anybody," "I'd go after him, not his son." "Hmm." "I believe him." "Kandace monroe was not the perfect girl" "Her teachers made her out to be." "oh, yeah?" "Facebook page, chat rooms-- they're all vicious." "Looks like anybody she didn't like was a target." ""I can ruin your life." "No one likes you, loser."" "She really had it out for this "losergirl."" "That the baby daddy?" "He and kandace got in a fight a couple days ago at the clinic." "Why is lance here?" "We have to ask him a few questions." "Lance?" "He couldn't kill anybody." "He couldn't kill anybody." "Simone, you should get back to your algebra" "Before your mom gets back." "Holland checks out." "There was a home invasion on the 1500 block of warren ave." "An arrest was made." "Yeah, the c.A.D. Also lists another home invasion" "On jefferson, near the renaissance center." "Alarm went off." "D.P.D. And milbank security answered the call." "And?" "And you know that milbank security guard" "I talked to this morning-- remus?" "Yeah." "He said nothing unusual happened last night." "Patrolled the same area." "Zoe said it was a cop." "Security guard, cop" "At night, it could all look the same." "Yeah." "I think we should have another chat with mr." "Remus." "so you're telling me you didn't know kandace monroe?" "Uh, I've seen her around school a couple times." "That's about it." "That's about it." "Hmm." "I was under the impression" "You knew her a little better than that." "Nah, you got me mixed up with someone else." "My son told you, he doesn't know this girl." "Now can we go already?" "So that wasn't you arguing with her at the clinic the other day?" "That wasn't you." "Somebody get their memory back?" "What's he talking about, lance?" "Here's that file you wanted." "Thank you." "We need to call a lawyer, dad." "Well, you do that, you only make it harder on yourself." "Look, I only found out a couple days ago" "That she was pregnant, and then she says she wants an abortion." "You got a girl pregnant, and you didn't come to me?" "You should go back to studying." "I am sorry." "Wait." "Wait, wait." "I was just trying to do the right thing." "How?" "By crushing her skull?" "No." "I wasn't even at school this morning." "I was out looking for a job." "How about a lifetime position at the license plate factory?" "Her being pregnant got you looking at" "Double homicide, lance." "Hey, he said he didn't kill anybody." "Simone, you shouldn't be watching this." "But lance didn't kill kandace." "He couldn't hurt anybody." "Look, she wouldn't even text me back after we left the clinic." "Did that make you mad?" "Well, what do you think?" "That's what we call motive." "No, stop twisting my words around, all right?" "Stop talking." "She wanted the abortion, not me." "Stop talking, lance." "I think you wanted the abortion." "She wouldn't do it." "No." "No." "You got mad." "You got into a fight." "She stormed off," "And then you confronted her at school." "No!" "No!" "That's not what happened." "No?" "Hey, this conversation's over." "Now, we want a lawyer, and we want a lawyer now." "That's fine." "Whatever you like, mr." "Brown." "Lance didn't do it." "I swear." "You got somethin' to tell us?" "no." "No." "Forget it." "Forget I said anything, all right?" "Your daughter's impeding an investigation." "I've already talked to her." "Talk to her again." "She said she doesn't know anythg." "She's lying." "She knows a lot more than she's saying." "With all due respect," "We've got to look into every lead." "My daughter is not a lead." "Lance brown's not our perp." "He was looking for a job at the time of the murder." "You confirmed this?" "The only thing he's guilty of is knocking up our victim." "What do you think she knows?" "Nothing." "I already told you, okay?" "Simone." "What?" "Just because I don't think lance killed kandace" "Means I know who did." "You have any idea who it could be?" "Are you asking me as a lieutenant or my mom?" "Both." "You know what kids call me at school?" "Narc." "Or "here comes the snitch-bitch."" "No one wants me at their parties because" "They think if they pull out a beer or something," "I'm gonna run home and tell mommy." "I know it doesn't mean much now," "But in the long run, none of this is gonna matter." "Most of these kids you won't even see after high school." "But you know what's gonna stick with you?" "What you did when you had the chance" "To do the right thing." "It's okay if you don't tell me, but tell somebody." "I didn't raise you to be afraid." "This morning, you told me nothing unusual" "Happened on your shift last night." "That's correct." "Yeah." "See, that's strange, 'cause we know that a milbank security guard," "Along with d.P.D., responded to a home invasion" "At 1023 traylor street." "Now traylor happens to be on your patrol," "But for some reason, the responding officer tells us" "That the security guard was not you." "In fact, none of your stops remember seeing you at all." "Now you tell me if I'm wrong, 'cause english is my second language, but..." "Doesn't that seem unusual to you?" "So if you weren't on your patrol, where were you?" "Perhaps breaking into the athens taverna restaurant?" "No." "You had access to the alarm codes." "No, that wasn't me." "You had plenty of time to shoot and kill that 21-year-old kid." "No." "I didn't work last night, okay?" "I traded with another guy." "Oh, that's..." "Pretty darn convenient." "It's not a lie." "He paid me 100 bucks." "Well, why didn't you just tell us that this morning?" "I was scared I'd get fired." "We're not supposed to switch shifts." "But lying to the police-- they're cool with that." "Who'd you switch with?" "Dennis lyons!" "Police!" "Open up!" "get him out." "Aah!" "Careful." "Door's hot, door's hot, door's hot." "Gah!" "got him?" "Uhh!" "Help." "going through the stop sign... right." "First he was going.." "no, I understand." "I see this green..." "...Handle the investigation." "Um, I'm going to need to take as much information" "From the families as I possibly can." "Have you seen simone?" "Not since earlier." "She's not answering her phone." "Where the hell is your partner?" "Can anybody tell me anything?" "Positive l.O.C." "First and second degree burns." "Pulse was weak and thready." "Bed 3." "That man's a suspect in a homicide." "he car went up like that?" "He had about ten gas cans in the trunk." "Arson?" "Yeah." "I'm amara petros." "I got a call they were bringing my boyfriend in." "They told me to come here." "Amara." "Simone's still not answering." "Well, I tried some of the friends' numbers" "That you gave me, but no one's heard from her." "Try 'em again." "Next message, tell him he doesn't answer his phone," "He'll be working midnights in central district." "Uh, losergirl, talkalot" "I checked the I.P. Addresses." "They're all fake handle names." "Kandace used them to spread rumors about other girls" "She didn't like." "Of course." "So no one could trace it back to her." "Hey, partner." "Yeah." "Is that fitch?" "Let me talk to him." "I don't understand any of this." "They said he was running from the police," "And then their car burst into flames?" "He was actually running from us, miss petros." "Did he do something wrong?" "We got a warrant." "Had detectives search your house." "We found the gun that killed percy." "The ballistics matched." "That's not possible." "I told you." "I never saw that boy before." "We don't think he was part of the plan." "Plan?" "What plan?" "Plan you and dennis had" "Burn down the restaurant, collect the insurance money." "That's ridiculous." "Amara, dennis had gas cans in his car." "That's why it went up in flames." "Did dennis have a key to the restaurant on his key ring?" "Right." "I know how hard times can affect people." "But..." "A young man is dead." "I never planned to burn down my father's restaurant." "Somebody did." "We checked with milbank security," "And there's no record of you setting an alarm last night." "Of course I set it." "Not according to "open and close logging"" "Which you signed up for a few years back." "It's possible I forgot." "I-I don't know." "I must have." "There was a lot going on." "Or could be you didn't set it on purpose." "No." "Mr. Petros would never do that." "He knows that there's been" "A rash of burglaries in his area." "He'd make sure to protect his restaurant." "His daughter." "Of course." "What was I thinking?" "I'm very protective of my daughters, too, mr." "Petros." "They live miles away," "But I still call them every once in a while," "Worry about 'em like they were 7." "Make sure they're taken care of." "It's natural." "But the insurance money" "Would have gone a long w towards taking care of yours." "Two things you didn't count on..." "Zoe and percy." "You might be able to lie to us." "There's one person I don't think you can lie to." "Papa?" "Papa?" "Papa." "Where is she?" "Inside." "Inside where?" "This is the home of laila stevens, 15-year-old honor student, math tutor." "Doesn't sound like a killer." "No, but she is someone who has been viciously bullied." "So you're saying kandace was killed in retaliation." "Kandace confronted laila in the parking lot." "Tired of being kandace's punching bag," "Laila picked up the rebar and hit her." "Terrible." "This is all because kandace thought" "Something was going on between lance and leila." "Turns out leila was only tutoring him." "Okay." "Just follow me." "So when did you figure it out?" "I got a freaked-out text from laila" "While I was doing my homework." "Why didn't you say somethin'?" "Laila asked me to walk to school with her this morning." "And I blew her off." "I just got tired of being the target, too." "I guess..." "I feel guilty," "Like I caused it or something." "It's not your fault." "You had no idea this wasonna happen." "I feel so bad." "I just feel so bad, mommy." "It's okay." "It's okay." "I'm here." "* I asked my mother, what will I be?" "*" "It's okay." "* will I be pretty?" "*" "Mm." "What, you got a hot date tonight?" "I'm going home and I'm gonna be thankful" "I'm single with no kids."

"Yeah, I was just thinking about you." "Figured I'd give you a call." "How's my little girl?" "Are you still thinking about next summer in tuscany?"

"You're in charge, and I'm not." "But you know what they say, lieutenant." "By any means necessary." "Oh, is that what they say?" "I overstepped my bounds." "It'll never happen again." "Yes, it will." "Just make sure the next time does not involve my daughter" "Or anybody else that I'm related to." "Nice work today, folks." "See you in the morning." "* que sera *" "Sanchez."
