- Hi Daryl.

- Hi.

I gotta go talk to someone.

You go and take Frankie to the coffee

shop, and you stay with her.

- You can do that, right?

- Yeah.

- Do you have to do that now?

- I'll be with you in a minute.

Let's go. Take care of me.

- What Louisiana go off at?

- 3 points underdogs.

- What are they losing by?

- 8.

- How the f*** is that?

- There's still 2 minutes to play.

Louisiana ain't got his passing game, friend.

Good point.

You want my pick for the "Pac-10"?

Do I look like I wanna hear em?

Where is the boy?

He went to the bathroom

- Are there any bath beside that one?

- Yeah, on the other side.

What's going on?

What he said when he left?

He asked me if I'd be okay waiting here

by myself. I said yeah, he said he

gotta go to the bathroom.

- He is a witness to a homicide.

- What?

To 5 homicides. Let's go.

- Where are we going?

- To find him.

Where is he?

Binnie, call security.

There isn't gonna be anybody.

Where's your grandson, Binnie?

I don't have to tell you anything.

Yeah, you do.

I haven't done anything. My grandson

haven't done anything.

If he don't want to be witness, he

doesn't have to be a witness.

This is bigger than you want to.

It was a massacre.

Children were executed.

Well maybe you should've thought of that before.

I need to know where he is.

Young man, I would like to know the

name of your superior.

Right now, I walk on about an hour and

half of sleep over the past 3 days.

And I'm still trying to remain calm.

I'm beginning to think that that's

getting in the way of being effective.

What are you doing?

I want to know where Daryl is.

My God.

Nobody saw me coming.

Nobody knows I'm here.

This old woman gonna run out of air.

And you're gonna have a tough time convincing

people that It wasnt you who did it to her.

And even if. Even if you convinced them

that you didn't kill her on purpose.

You're still gonna have a tough time

selling them that you took care of her

with a f***.

Now, listen to me.

Where the f*** is he?

I said where the f*** is he?

He's on an aeroplane.

Ms. Edwin had bought him a ticket.

She sent them to live with her family in

England.

It's okay.

There we go, that's it.

That's a good girl.

Let's breathe.

You drop dead you selfish c*nt.

You ever think about your kids?

Your grandkids?

Suck it up their inheritance through

that oxygen tube?

And Binnie's f***ing intensive care.

I hate you, I hate you both

Right now, I should've f***ing kill you.

You're the f***ing reason this country

going down to drain.

Watch out, he is not in a good mood.

Come in.

Have a sit.

Scotland Yard called.

The kid's in England.

Make him a material witness.

Maybe Scotland Yard will hold him.

Can't do that.

He had no involvment with the crime.

He don't want to testify.

We can't compel it.

Well we can still try flipping one of

the three.

Yeah you can try all you want.

Nobody flippin' on Godshaw. They're

scared to death.

As of now, all they all are person of

interest.

You gotta let them go.

Come on.

You weren't supposed to let the kid out

of your sight, Lieutenant. Now you

just be glad that he dont turn out dead.

- This is bullshit.

- Get the hell out of here.

Hey lawyer, you're not the one...

Get out of my office!

- We're risking our lives on the street.

- Easy... easy...

You know what's involved, right?

- Take it easy.

- Maybe if we have a prosecutor...

- What happened when you went to see his grandmother.

- I told you.

She said that the woman she takes care

are buying a plane ticket and he was on

his way to England, to stay with

- What kind of incident?

Any kind.

No.

Whatever it is,

you gonna have your story down.

Come on they're gonna public integrity

into this?

What for?

United States Congressman.

I asked where Daryl was. His

grandmother told me.

grandmother?

No, I did not.

You didn't at anytime threatened

Antoinette Fahringer?

No. I did not.

Think you should know form of complaints

been filed. Alleging you cut off...

Mrs. Fahringer oxygen supply.

Well who's saying that? Mrs. Fahringer?

Is it true?

I think she might be suffering from a

little dementia.

Is it true?

Absolutely not.

that up.

Ned. Excellent. You got my message.

Good. Come on.

You got the flowers I sent? How's Jenny?

Dear.

You see that's it. We engage with another

human being, we remind us we're not alone.

Plus who knows maybe we even learned a

little something.

How much?

You took 10 off to make it right, you

gotta come up with 50.

Bullshit.

It's punitive damages.

What can I tell you.

- I don't get it.

She kept up her end of the bargain.

- He says no.

He's a f***ing liar. I did everything

he asked me to do.

Listen to her stand up for herself.

The indignation. I love it.

- Where's the money?

- My bag.

It's all here.

Here are 5,000 and some changes here.

Why dont I give you this and call it a day.

We could do that alternatively I could

tell Jeffy to shoot the dog.

You want me to shoot the f***ing dog?

I'll put my calling card on this gorgeous.

I don't give a sh*t about the dog.

But you mark her up, I'm gonna have a

tough time getting you your money.

Yeah.

spirit for friendliness. You mind?

Well, gotta let her clean up.

Put on something hot.

- Beautiful.

What are you waiting for?

I don't wanna play pressure on you, but

You boys can be done by then, right?
