You said you were out.
I'm the one who got caught slipping.
Trust... it won't happen again.
That night was a very valuable lesson.
Okay.
Well, uh...
I think she's here for you.
KARLA: The police said
my grandmother fell downstairs and...
broke her neck.
They ruled it an accident.
But you don't believe that.
A few days before she... died,
my grandmother called me.
She was convinced she was being stalked.
I've never heard her sound so afraid.
She have any idea who was stalking her?
None.
To know my grandmother was to love her.
She was always there
when someone needed her.
And I thought I'd do the same for her.
But then...
But what?
She said she wanted
to go to the police, but...
she was afraid
they wouldn't take
an old lady seriously.
So I told her I'd fly back
and go with her.
But then I couldn't take time off
till a few days later, and...
...it was too late.
[SNIFFLES)
I feel so guilty.
Well, you did what you could.
I mean, you can't be there 24/7.
KARLA: She was always there for me.
But when she needed me most,
I wasn't there for her.
Listen.
I'm gonna do everything I can
to get to the bottom of this.
Everything.
HARRY: I don't know, Rob. I mean,
it looks like the NYPD did
due diligence on this one.
It's like Karla said...
there's no sign of foul play,
so they ruled it an accident.
I mean, is it possible
they got this one right?
Priscilla tells her granddaughter
she's being stalked.
Then, days later, falls to her death?
I don't know if I'm buying that
as a coincidence.
Occam's razor? You know?
Sometimes the obvious
answer is the correct one.
Maybe. But Hickam's dictum.
It took 25 years

I know. I remember.
That's a hell of a burden to carry.

Hi.
Okay, why'd you have me come

You certainly don't need my help

No.
I had a mammogram last week, and
now they want to do a biopsy.
Which will probably mean nothing.
What if it doesn't?
Listen,
let's not put the cart before the horse.
I know it's scary,
but I am sure you did everything right.
Self-exams,
yearly mammograms.
I did.
Just...
doesn't stop my brain from going
to the worst-case scenarios.
Take a deep breath.
Do the test.
Get the results.
If you don't get the answer you want,
then we'll have
a different conversation,
which will probably not come to pass.
But if it does,
you will deal with it.
I did.
You seemed to go through it with such...
grace.
In public.
As a woman, you feel
your breasts represent
your femininity, your sexuality.
But at some point, I realized
my identity is not that.
I am more than two mounds

Have you told anyone else?
- No. Not yet.
- Mm-kay.
I understand the instinct
to keep it secret.
But if that test
should come back positive,
at some point, you're going

You have me,
but you also need your family.

This is my sister Sharvi...
- Hi.

Hello.
Karla asked us to help her pack
up while she makes arrangements.
Gosh, it's all just so sad.
We noticed that there's some
cameras around the building.
Would there be some way
for me to look at the footage?
Yeah, I'm confused.
The police said she just
tripped down the stairs.
Yeah, they-they said it was an accident.
Maybe, but Karla said
that Priscilla told her
she was being stalked.
What?
ROBYN: I mean, it's probably nothing,
but we thought we would
put Karla's mind at ease

What do you want?
Uh, I was told by the owners
that you could help me

Wait here.
Okay.
Seems like some of your tenants decided
to move since Priscilla's death.
Any particular reason why?
[SIGHS)
Maybe you should just tell her.
She's going to find out.
Find out what?
Uh, some of the tenants
think the building is...
...haunted.
So the people outside who said
they couldn't risk staying...
they thought a ghost k*lled Priscilla?
SHARVI: I know it sounds ridiculous.
Why would they think that?
Well, some of the tenants
have been complaining
about hearing noises at night.
Uh, a few of them claim
to even see things.
Like, supernatural things?
SHARVI: Word got 'round,
and next thing you know,
the poor tenants are terrified.
Well, it started with a few leaving,
but when Priscilla died,
it just got worse.
Yeah, truth be told,
it's a big financial blow
for me and my sister.
The place is literally
falling apart around us.
But our father left us this building,
and we're determined
to keep it in the family.
So, they all tell me the building is...
Haunted. Yeah. Ridiculous, right?
I just did a sweep. No Ring cams.
You got anything useful?
Well, there's a camera there
that's, uh, pointed towards
the head of the staircase.
That caught Priscilla's fall, all right?
And that's what the cops had access to.
Now, if somebody was following her
towards the staircase,
down the hallway here,
that camera over there
would have caught it.
But, uh, our pal Leo here
says it's broken.
Like half the stuff in the building.
I mean, just look at the lights.
The owners don't have
- any money for repairs.
- HARRY: Right.
LEO: Hell, they barely pay me.
But that don't stop the tenants
from getting on my case.
HARRY: No, I hear you.
Folks got beer budgets
with champagne taste.
Oh! Who do you think's got to fix that?
ROBYN: It's a camera.
No wires. It must be Bluetooth.
Can you...?
Yeah, let me see if I can trace that.
[DEVICE TRILLING)

don't you?
He's going to find out
in a minute anyway.
HARRY: Okay, uh,
camera's sending a signal
to an IP address...
Okay, look, it's mine.
But-but it's not what you think.
I-I... I did it for Doreen over in 3C.
Look, with all the strange stuff
happening in the building,
I-I just wanted to keep an eye on her.
Just wanted to protect her...
from spirits.
HARRY: Yeah, well, I don't think
the, uh, spirits were her real problem.
Show us the footage, Leo.
HARRY: Okay.
All right. Let's take
a look at our stalker.
Okay, look, there's Priscilla
running down the hallway
towards the camera.
And here comes...
What?
Nothing. What is that? I don't...
She's being chased by no one.
[PHONE WHOOSHING)
ROBYN: Look at her face.
She's running from someone.
Or some thing.
All right, is it possible
someone doctored this footage?
No, I mean, I'd be able to tell.
Yeah, well, she's scared
to death of something.
- Something we can't see.
- Oh, no, no, no.
Don't tell me you're buying
into all this haunted madness.
Well, it sure seems
Priscilla believed it.
She believed that she had a stalker.
Who has somehow managed
to evade detection.
Until now.
Let's-let's knock on some doors.
Agreed. Maybe someone saw something.
Okay. I got this.
Don't worry. I'm a man of the people.
I know who k*lled Priscilla.
It was George.
Does-does this George live
in the building?
No, not anymore.
He had a dispute with
his roommate back in... '82.
Pushed poor George straight down
those stairs, broke his neck.
So George is... dead?
Doesn't mean he's not here.
You're sure? You haven't
seen anyone strange?
No one. No ghosts, either.
Only thing I've seen
is people around here losing
their damn minds.
Sorry. Had to make sure you were real.
Ghosts are allergic to sage.

Well, once I got Harry outside

the hallucinations stopped.

- Nausea? Blurred vision?

Throw in some dizziness
for good measure. Why?
Could be carbon monoxide poisoning.
That would explain the symptoms.
And it's been known
to cause hallucinations.
It would also explain
why Priscilla was running
from nothing.
But it doesn't explain
why she was breathing in
so much carbon monoxide every night.
Maybe it's a leak.
Yeah, but if it were a leak,
we wouldn't be seeing

- So it's intentional.
- ROBYN: Yeah.

Okay, look,
if it's affecting the whole building,
it's got to be going through

to pull something like this off?
Uh, my money is on the super.
I mean, he's got grudges against
the owners and the tenants,
not to mention,
he's an extremely creepy person.
All right, well, the plumbing
hub should be in the basement.
Uh... Rob.
[EXHALES)
Carbon monoxide. Here.
Thanks.
[DOOR CLOSES)
Bingo.
[ELECTRICITY BUZZES)
[BELLS CHIME)
You're back!
- Come here.
- Hi. [LAUGHS)
- Mm.
- Hello.
Okay, so, you ready to get slayed?
Gosh, yes. I am ready.
- Okay.
- Okay.
This is what I want.
Ooh. You sure?
More than sure.
Okay, then, I got you.
Yes.
- Oh. Let me see one more time.
- Okay.
Well, we know your grandmother
was not being stalked.
So it was just an accident?
Not exactly, but we're
gathering more information.
I'll keep you posted when we find out.
Thank you for doing this.
Listen, your grandmother
deserves justice,
and you deserve to find out the truth
about what happened to her.
HARRY: Okay, so,
it looks like police are opening up
an investigation
on the carbon monoxide "leak"
at the building, not to mention
the super's m*rder.
Those poor tenants, breathing in
that stuff all night.
Who would do that?
Well, I'm not sure who,
but I could tell you why.
That building is rent-controlled.
Somebody wants to buy it,
probably to tear it down.
Which they can't do
until the tenants move out.
ROBYN: The siblings who own
the building, Ajay and Sharvi,
made a big point of telling us
they weren't selling.
HARRY: Except a developer called
the Pine Hollow Group
recently ordered an assessment.
You only do that if someone
makes an offer on the property.
Ajay and Sharvi haven't accepted it.
At least not officially.
These developers are... are snatching up
everything in the area.
Big, small, doesn't seem to matter.
Oh, man, these are some bad guys.
Several other buildings they bought
have been connected to a series
of accidental deaths.
A fire, an electrocution.
Even a... an apparent su1c1de.
I mean, these guys seem like
they're willing to k*ll
to get what they want.
You think they're responsible
for the CO poisoning?
Only two parties make out
in a situation like that:
the buyer and the seller.
Speaking of CO,
I was curious about the rig,
and it turns out
there's a whole protocol
to buying carbon monoxide.
All the cannisters have
serial numbers on them,
and all the vendors have
to log each sale.
So that's...
- What?
- Um...
the cannisters that you found
in the basement were purchased
with Ajay's credit card.
Track his phone. Send me his location.
Ajay's got some explaining to do.
Beautiful view, isn't it?
Yeah, it is.
This used to be a building
just like yours.
An eyesore.
I-I thought you liked my building.
When it's done, it will be beautiful.
And look over there.
We're making that whole top half
of the building into a destination.
It'll be filled with luxury stores
and high-end restaurants.
- You name it.
- Wait. "We"?
You-you work for the Pine Hollow Group?
The carbon monoxide tanks
in our basement, that was you?
I figured if all the tenants moved out,
you and your sister would have to sell.
Two people are dead because of you.
That's not what the police will think.
It was your credit card that
purchased the CO cannisters.
You're trying to pin this on me?
You're the only one
who can tie me to it.
ROBYN: Let him go!
Give me Ajay and no one gets hurt.
- You want him?
- No.
No, no! No, no!
- Go get him!
- [AJAY SCREAMS)
[BOTH GRUNTING)
AJAY: Help!
Help!
Help! Please!
AJAY: Help!
I'm slipping.
[GRUNTING)
Help!
[PAINED CRIES)
AJAY: Somebody, please...
Sure you want to do that?
sh**ting at someone up close
is a bad idea.
Why? You don't think
my psyche can take it?
No. 'Cause, tactically, it's...
dumb.
Help me! Please!
- Oh! Oh, my God.
- Hold on.
- [CRYING OUT)
- I got you. Hang on.
[GRUNTS)
Okay.
♪ ♪
♪ 'Cause all I want to do... ♪
[INDISTINCT CHATTER)
Everything okay?
Yeah, no, everything's good.
A little light on the details.
No, no, I'll tell you more if you want.
I was just trying to be
respectful of your,
you know, choice.
Oh, yeah. No, you're right.
- Just tell me if Rob's okay.
- Oh, no, no, no, she's fine.
Everything's fine, really.
[SIGHS) Okay.
Hey, listen,
I just mean, you know, I'm sorry
that I had to involve you.
You know, you're not part
of the team anymore.
Hey, I'm part of this team.
Okay? That's the team that matters most.
Always has, always will.
- I love you.
- Hmm.
Even though I kicked your ass, though?
- Mm.
- [LAUGHS)
All right, I'm gonna go
wrap some things up
in the Sanctum.
- Unless you... Unless you need me?
- No.
- No, I'm good.
- No? You sure?
Yeah, I'm sure. Go.
Okay. [LAUGHS)
[PHONE BUZZING)
Hey.
- How are you?
- Good.
Just, uh, wanted to see
how you're holding up.
I'm good.
I don't know how to thank you, though.
For everything.
No need.
I just hope this
brings you some closure.
It does.
Karla, listen to me.
There was nothing you could have done
to prevent your grandmother's death.
You understand?
It wasn't your fault.
Thank you.
And she didn't die in vain.
You know, her sacrifice kept all
of her neighbors from being
forced out of their homes.
That, and your determination
to find the truth.
That would have made her happy.
No doubt.
She would have liked you.
She liked strong women.
[CHUCKLES) Sounds like the three of us
could have formed a club.
[CHUCKLES) Yeah.
Have a good night.
- [SNIFFLES)
- [PHONE BEEPS OFF)
[SIGHS)
[SIREN WAILS IN DISTANCE)
Hello, Auntie...
Sorry.
You've seemed a million miles
away all night.
- It's just that I...
- [FOOTSTEPS ON STAIRS)
Oh, yes.
The curls are back.
- Yes!
- Yeah?
Ooh!
VI: Don't get me wrong,
I love the braids,
but I have missed these beautiful curls.
ROBYN: And they are poppin'.
- Let me feel.
- Oh, my goodness.
- Thank you.
- Feels good.
[CHUCKLES) I decided
I didn't need a new me.
I like me just fine.
And if Cam doesn't understand that...
Oh, it's all good. We talked.
Oh, no. Uh-uh.
We're gonna need
a little more than that.
Okay.
Turns out the girl in the pic
was just a model Cam hired
to promote a pop-up event
for his sneaker business.
Mm-hmm.
The whole thing was
a last-minute opportunity and...
And Cam got swamped.
But he called me as soon as he could.
Said he wanted me to be the first one
he showed the results
of the photo sh**t to.
- Okay.
- DELILAH: But, uh,
I did tell him how
not responding to my texts
made me feel.
- And he got it and apologized.
- Mm.
That's my baby girl.
That's my baby girl right there.
- Can we just say "adulting"?
- ROBYN: Yeah.
VI: Okay? I am so proud of you.
Set your boundaries,
you weren't afraid of
a difficult conversation.
That is so grown-up of you.
Thank you, Auntie.
[GIGGLES)
All right, well, this grown-up
has homework to do.
Ooh.
Is homework slang for calling Cam?
- Maybe. [GIGGLES)
- [LAUGHS)
Can you believe it?
Our baby got a boyfriend.
Time to take the door off the hinges.
- I'm-a get the drill. Come on.
- [LAUGHS)
[PHONE RINGING)
Oh. Dante.
Oh, well... I'm gonna take this.
Yes, you are.
Hey, Marcus.
Hey.
Just wanted to call
to thank you for your help.
Did you get the guy?
Sure did. Thanks to your intel.
It meant a lot.
Good. I'm just glad I could help.
And that you're safe.
Sounds kind of quiet over there.
Are you the last one there?
[CHUCKLES) Yeah.
Gonna grab a beer and watch
the end of the Giants game.
A little taste of home.
Sounds nice.
Guess I'll let you go, then.
Yeah. Okay.
Good night, Robyn.
Good night.
GAME ANNOUNCER:
The Giants are up by seven
with eight minutes remaining.
ANNOUNCER: 1st and 10 from the 15.
I'm sure they'd want to come away
with something more than a field goal
from this position.
