06x05 - Sanctuary City: Part 5

Post by bunniefuu »

Previously on "Major Crimes"...

I have something called cardiomyopathy.

But until I know more,

I think we should postpone the wedding.

Absolutely not.

SYKES: Three teenage boys go missing

from a school field trip,
then one of them

winds up back at school, dead.

Where are the other two boys?

REPORTER: Earlier today,
Miguel Diaz and Ryan Rojas

have been found in Mexico.

Questions remain.

Were they victims or perpetrators?

[ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS ]

NOLAN: Let's assume
what Ryan told us is true.

He's sprayed with a chemical agent,

loses consciousness, wakes up
in the middle of a desert,

is thrown in a Mexican jail

because dr*gs were planted on him,

is rescued only to find one
of his best friends is dead.

It was brutal. So hot.

Our throats were just burning.

Maybe Dr. Garza found out
his wife was having an affair

with Father Casanova and blamed his son.

It says here oxycodone
was in Lucas' blood?

- They had oxy?
- I'm coming to tell you

that you've got another crime scene.

As a solution to a m*rder,
it doesn't get any worse

than this.

[ CAMERA SHUTTERS CLICKING ]

[ POLICE RADIO CHATTER ]



Okay, Kendall. What do you see?

Physical symptoms indicate
a narcotics overdose.

No needle marks,
so I'm guessing the dr*gs

were taken by mouth.

Oh. And here's an open bottle of tequila.

Tequila and oxy. That's a bad combo.

He could have fallen when
he passed out and hit his head.

TAO: This might not have
been an accident.

When I pushed the spacebar,
the screen saver disappeared

and left an open Word document.

It says, "Dear Sara, I didn't
mean for any of this to happen.

Lucas and his friends
started using my oxy,

then stole most of it for themselves.

In trying to get it back,
I lost control of my actions."

MASON: "If I'd been able
to kick my addiction,

we'd still be a happy family.

You were right. I was
a terrible father and husband.

I'm so sorry for the pain
and suffering I caused everyone.

Mateo."

That's a confession with a motive.

But we have several
outstanding questions.

Follow up. Of course.
But this su1c1de note clears

the boys, the Catholic Church,
and takes the...

I don't even know what to call it...

the "forced deportation"
issue off the table.

PROVENZA: We're trying to figure
out a m*rder/kidnapping here,

not solve a bunch of political problems.

Okay. Fine. Let's review.

How did Sara Garza take the notification

of her husband's death?

I believe the word is "stoic."

No one but the Garzas were told

Lucas' blood tested positive for oxy.

And whoever wrote that note

knew that oxy was in his bloodstream.

Yeah, but let's talk about
what the note doesn't explain.

- Amy?
- If the boys took the oxy,

why didn't Lucas
have some in his backpack?

Ryan and Miguel did.

NOLAN: There wouldn't be
a record of Dr. Garza

going into Mexico to leave the boys,

but we'd have one of him coming back...

Look, this su1c1de note,
it's completely fake, okay?

You k*ll your child and dump
his body at a church for dr*gs?

- Julio.
- Sir, you're telling me

Doctor Garza had no other way
of getting more oxy

than to k*ll his own son?

Okay, Julio.

It's not a su1c1de. It's a m*rder.

I'm sitting down, ma'am.

No matter how it happened,
Garza d*ed at work.

We should get a list of everyone
at his office today.

And look for names that overlap
with any part of this case.

I thought the federal government
kept us from patient records.

We're just looking to see
who was in the building,

not at their medical history.

It may have made more sense when
Dr. Garza was a suspect.

But if I could work
his office's patient list, too,

it might help me determine
where Lucas meant to go

when he and his friends
left the field trip.

That would be a small miracle.

MASON: Are you assuming
the deaths of Dr. Garza

and his son were connected?

Well, it's not a random coincidence.

Then could we release Miguel and Ryan

since they were in police
custody when the doctor d*ed?

Well, first, they need
to answer a few questions.

Not while they're under arrest
and have counsel.

Excuse me. But can't we just
tell Miguel and Ryan's attorneys

we're dropping the charges against them

and question the boys
again while we're waiting

for the parents to pick them up?

Buzz! That's so sneaky!

No, I'm, uh... In my reserve
detective class...

That is exactly what we will do.

We can re-arrest the boys later.

Julio, see if you can get both
boys over here separately.

No more merit badges for you, Buzz.

PROVENZA: Well, dropping
the charges against Ryan

will not get that kid to talk to us.

It's okay, Lieutenant.

We won't be asking the questions.

I know that you've waited
a long time to talk to Ryan.

And we felt he could
use a spiritual boost

after all he's been through.

Thank you, Lieutenant.
I really appreciate this.

And I assume this means
Miguel can go free, too.

His parents are on the way
to pick Miguel up right now.

So, here, take as long as you would like.

Thank you.

Father. Thank you for coming. Thank you.

Thank you.

It's almost over.

We'll let you know when your mom is here.

RUSTY: Can you guys legally do this?

Listen to a private conversation between

a priest and a parishioner?

HOBBS: My assistant is right.

We are in tricky waters, Commander.

The second Ryan says "bless me,
Father, for I have sinned,"

this recording stops.
Hand on the mute button, Buzz.

FATHER JONAS: Take a breath.
You can tell me everything.

Father.

Father, I have to tell the cops
what happened.

I have to.

You don't need to say another
word to them, Ryan.

They're dropping all charges.

They're releasing you.

But the police have to know
what happened to Hector.

It's the reason we were kidnapped.

It's the reason...

Lucas is gone.

Look, it's my fault.

Ryan, listen.
You've been absolved for Hector.

And it's not police business.

It is!

Everything that happened,
the cartel did this to us!

They figured out I k*lled Hector.

Now Lucas is dead,
and Miguel could be next.

And I have to tell them. I have
to do something about it.

Oh, my God. He just confessed
to the wrong m*rder.

No, no, no. Hold on. Hold on.

Just wait a second. Okay?

Now, what happened...

Hector's death was ruled an accident.

And nobody knows what happened
to him except you and me.

The cartel has to know.

Somehow. I mean, it's the only
thing that makes sense.

Look. I can't... I can't
let them k*ll Miguel, too.

I have to save him.

I have to.

Ryan, did you tell anyone else
but me what happened to Hector?

Did you?

I know... I know you said not to.

But when we woke up and we
found out we were in Mexico,

I was just so scared.

I tried to get Miguel
to go on without me.

I tried.

I mean, it's me they're after. Not him.

I can't book Ryan for the m*rder
of his stepfather based on

what he's saying to a priest.

- You won't have to.
- If they k*lled him, too...

Ryan, now, this is very important.

I want you to tell me exactly
what you told Miguel.

Word for word.

Go on without me. Let's split up.

Go different ways.

Why did he want to do that?

I don't know. We were freaked out.

It was hot. We weren't feeling good.

What?

That's the whole story?

Ryan told you nothing else? You're sure?

Well, at first, it hurt to talk.

Our throats were so messed up.
And then we were arrested by...

The authorities in Rosarito for dr*gs.

Yeah. Okay. Thank you for all
your honesty and cooperation.

So, you're still gonna drop
the m*rder charges against me?

Uh, yeah.

Yes, and then we're
extraditing you back to Mexico,

where you will be charged
with opiate possession with...

No, no, no, no. You can't do
that. No, you can't do that!

Oh, tell me what
we can't do one more time,

and you'll be saying it
in the back seat of my car

as I drive you to the Mexican border!

So much for not threatening
the undocumented.

We don't protect criminals.

We have a right to know his culpability.

And now, instead of helping us,

you sit here lying your ass off!

We'll let the Mexican
authorities have a sh*t

at this little drug-dealing operation.

Those weren't my dr*gs.
I've never taken dr*gs.

And while you're leaving
to spend the rest of your life

behind bars in Margaritaville,
ICE will pop over

to your parents' house

and give them a lift
back across the border.

Please. Please.

Let me explain this, okay?
Here's the choice.

You can lie and save your best friend.

Or you can tell the truth
and save your family.

Your family. You understand?

Okay. Look. I don't know
if what Ryan told me was true,

because it didn't make sense,

but he told me...

He told you... what?

That...[ SIGHS ]

That we'd been kidnapped because
he k*lled his stepfather.

That he had tried to keep
the police from finding

Hector's cartel connections,
that he'd even waited

for the moment when the jerk
wasn't wearing his stupid-ass,

"Hey, look, I'm a criminal" bracelet

just to push him...

just to push him over that balcony.

That the cartel must have
figured out what he had done,

but it's not true.

What? What's not true?

The cartel wouldn't
have dumped us in Mexico.

They would have sh*t us
when we got in the limo.

So it had nothing to do with Ryan or me.

It had to be about Lucas.

Why did it have to be about Lucas?

Because he's dead and... and we're not.

But why did he die?

I don't know, okay?

How the hell am I supposed
to know, all right?

You guys, you just
sit there and you think,

"Wow, they're only . What do
they have to worry about?"

I walk past a man every day
on my way to school

who shouts things at me like, "w*tback"

or "go back to Mexico,"

never sure if my family is gonna
be there when I get back.

And Ryan... his stepfather
was b*ating him.

Because he was different, different.

He was b*ating him!

And what did you people do to help?

And Lucas's father was an
addict, in and out of rehab...

and his mother was
probably having an affair,

and his whole family
was about to blow apart.

- An affair?
- And who do we know

who likes to have affairs with
the mothers of troubled kids?

PROVENZA: It's okay. Sit down.
Sit down. Relax.

Now, tell me. Lucas thought his mother

might be having an affair.

With whom?

He didn't know. All she did...

She told Lucas she couldn't
handle his father's

drugging anymore, and that she
might leave him for someone

who she knew loved them.

But she changed her mind.

- So...
- That's all he ever said about it.

...this isn't all just about Lucas.

Buzz, call Dr. Morales.

Tell him I would like
to look at Mateo Garza's body.

I think that this case
just broke wide open.

It's day , and the mystery behind

the St. Joseph's Three deepens
as authorities struggle

to explain the su1c1de

of Dr. Mateo Garza, father of...

...not only refusing to return
the million dollars

taken from the Diaz family,
but also refusing

to release their son
from police custody, despite...

Ryan Rojas, who only days ago

was considered missing,

continues to be under arrest

while police have gone mum

about the young boy's cartel connections.

So far, the FBI has
refused to drop charges

against Marvin Garret
for what they claim was

illegal possession of flash suppressors,

while an entire family
of undocumented immigrants,

whose son was arrested for the
m*rder of an American citizen,

- remain free and in their home.
- Hey.

Your brother and sister are here.

- Ricky.
- Andy.

- Damn it.
- Emily.

When is Mom coming back?

- You guys are here early.
- Excuse me.

- Hey.
- And I finally get

- to congratulate you in person.
- Oh, thank you.

This marriage is the biggest
honor of my life.

- Hey, guys.
- Rusty!

Hey. Uh, Mom is at the morgue

with Lieutenant Tao
and Lieutenant Provenza.

They're trying to close out
this St. Joseph's Three case

that's been all over the news.

Yeah, so you guys might have to
grab some dinner without us.

Oh, my. Uh, we still are having

a wedding rehearsal tomorrow night, yes?

Yeah, well, that's... [ LAUGHS ]

That's kind of up in the air
a little, too.

Um, we might have to work the vows

around the investigation somehow.

I thought... Didn't the doctor tell Mom

that she should cut back?

Well, only when she's tired.

And the medication he gave her
is working very well.

Well, you know,
she's lived a very good life,

and it's not like she has
a lot of bad habits

she has to kick.

Right now, everyone's out
serving this massive

search warrant at a doctor's office.

And it's just possible
that they'll find the name

they're looking for, and we'll be able

to stick to the schedule.

If the Catholic Church
is still up to perform

the wedding after the arrest.

Well. Maybe we should have
dinner in tonight.

Sure. Yeah.

Hey, while we're here, use us
to ease up on Mom's stress.

Anyway we can.

DR. MORALES: Besides the
su1c1de, I have two injuries.

First, you can see a cracked sternum

in the center of the chest.

TAO: Dr. Redmond said he performed CPR

when he found him in the office.

Ah. It looked like someone
tried hard to revive him.

And the other injury is a skull fracture

just beneath the hairline.

You can see it on the X-rays.

PROVENZA: Could the doctor
have done that falling?

After he passed out?

If he bounced off a hard object
on his way to the ground.

Could a person have slammed
his head into something?

Well...

Hmm. There's a fair amount of irritation

to the back of his scalp.

His hair has been
pulled out by the roots.

During violent overdoses, people
often do that to themselves.

- [ CELLPHONE VIBRATES ]
- TAO: An alternative theory...

Dr. Garza could have been
knocked unconscious by someone

and force-fed enough dr*gs
to cause an overdose?

It could be. It's probably what
the k*ller did to the boys.

Have you examined the back
of Dr. Garza's throat?

Of course. In overdose cases,

I always look for signs
of vomiting or asphyxiation.

Inflammation?

Similar to what you found in
Lucas Garza's throat?

Oh, well.

Yes. [ CHUCKLES ]

In both cases, the inflammation

could have been caused
by involuntary retching.

Though, now that you mention it,
these marks are a lot alike.

Well, we've got a problem.

FBI agents Vega and Fey are back,

ready to deport the Diaz family.

They really want to keep
that million dollars.

You better believe it.

I can't wait to hear the lame-ass excuse

these two come up with.

I don't normally say this
to local law enforcement,

but on behalf of the FBI, I apologize.

With this amount of money,
and the implications

both here and across the border,

we saw this as a for-ransom kidnapping.

We've read the su1c1de note
written by Dr. Garza.

And while technically,
the kids were abducted,

the million dollars was not part of that.

And?

Again, we were wrong.

And we apologize.

Well, now I have heard everything.

Agents Vega and Fey,

I appreciate your apology very much.

Well, how about a big
"I'm sorry," for withholding

information that the boys
had been found in Mexico?

For that, you'd have to go to our boss.

Okay, moving on.
Since Dr. Garza confessed,

and your investigation has concluded,

the FBI would like to transfer
the Diaz family to ICE.

Our investigation isn't over.

And no matter the outcome, Miguel Diaz is

a material witness
and will be required to remain.

Wait, what?

How could he be a material
witness if there is no trial?

I-I don't understand.

Well, that's because
you don't listen, Vega.

Commander, if I may.

Uh, I will say it again.

The LAPD has not closed this case.

Are you operating, then,
on the supposition

that Dr. Garza's note...

Was not written by Garza.

His death was not a su1c1de.

And he did not k*ll his son.

And this conclusion is based on...

Evidence of an altercation.

- Evidence?
- Mm.

I want to see it.

- [ SCOFFS ]
- Our joint task force

has concluded.

You're letting
personal politics get in the way

of a Federal Order of Deportation.

Miguel is a material witness
in a m*rder investigation.

And you have to give his family
back their million dollars.

Get used to it.

The Diaz family is living in
this country illegally.

But while Miguel's testimony
remains necessary

to a m*rder conviction, they stay.

All right, all right.

Look, this is big deal,
the Diazs being here.

It's on the news.

And it's a flagrant
violation of U.S. law.

We have no choice but to address it.

So, if there's some way
we can help expedite

your investigation so Miguel's
testimony is not necessary...

We need records from ICE of every person

who came back over the border
and into the United States

in the last two weeks.

Topping that very long list,
you will note Dr. Garza.

If we can prove Garza went to Mexico

and came back after the boys' abduction,

we might rethink this deportation order.

We'd also like to include
Marvin Garret to that list.

Yes, and all of his unhyphenated friends.

We'd like to see if any of them
crossed the border

during this time frame.

This is a lot of work when we've
already identified the k*ller.

We have not identified the k*ller.

Pay attention.

Okay.

Just remember, we're not here to enforce

our own personal beliefs,
but to do our duty.

And, as you said, Chief,

there is no such thing
as a sanctuary city.



The FBI isn't wrong.

The U.S. Government not only has a right,

but also a responsibility
to protect its borders.

Well, that's exactly
what we're counting on, Chief,

to prove our case.

RICKY: I don't feel good about this, Mom.

I mean, we intended
to make dinner for you.

- The whole idea was...
- She's taking her meds.

She feels a lot better.

Grab a chair. The adults have this.

- We really do.
- Fine, fine.

Just, from now on, please, we do
not want you taking care of us.

We want to take care of you.

But if I can't do the things
that make life

worth living, why be here at all?

Now, come on.

Let's try and talk about normal things.

All right. Well. What sort of
normal things did you do today?

I... I went to the morgue.

- Oh.
- And I made up with the FBI.

And I solved a m*rder
I wasn't investigating.

What else?

Just the usual things, really.

And you're sure this m*rder/kidnapping

isn't gonna delay the ceremony?

RUSTY: I hope not.
I just dropped off checks

at the florist and the caterer.

And no matter what happens,
Friday night, we are having

a rehearsal dinner,
and then Saturday at : P.M.,

assuming you guys haven't
all been ex-communicated...

- [ LAUGHTER ]
- ...you are walking down the aisle

at St. Joseph's of Nazareth.

And you're all coming with me.

Don't worry. Now that we know
that it was this Ms. Garza

who was having an affair,
we're almost done.

- Seriously?
- Yes. I've got two doctors

coming in tomorrow to check
the throats of Miguel and Ryan.

If they find what
I think they will find...

- Two doctors?
- Yes. Well, I can't

make an arrest based on
a physical exam without

a second opinion.

Don't you think, Andy?

Uh, well, yeah.

I mean, because we're so close
to the finish line.

Just a couple of questions to answer.

What kind of questions?

SYKES: You have the right
to remain silent.

Anything you say can be used
against you in a court of law.

You have the right to an attorney.

If you cannot afford one,

one will be appointed
for you by the state.

My son goes missing.

You find him dead,

his body dumped at our church.

My husband commits su1c1de.

And you're reading me my rights?

Are you actual detectives?

Or are you just here
to make people miserable?

How is it that you're questioning me

when everything that's happened
so far is your fault?

PROVENZA: We'll see about that.

The day-before-yesterday, you left here,

and your husband left
right after you did.

So what happened next?

We had an argument at our car.

What was the argument about?

Lucas was found with oxycodone
in his bloodstream.

Where do you think that came from?

How do you suppose that Ryan and Miguel

were found with oxycodone
in their backpacks?

Mateo!

Ma...

Mateo was...

He should have overdosed
months ago. And then...

So after the argument,
any idea where Dr. Garza went?

We went back to the office.

Um, Mateo wasn't
going to perform any surgeries

until after Lucas' funeral.

But I... I couldn't stay. I...

I had to leave.

You were at the office
before your husband d*ed?

Of su1c1de.

Which is what you said.

He k*lled himself after I left.

We also said your son
d*ed from natural causes.

But we're revising
that opinion that, too.

What?

- Why?
- Okay, Mike.

I think we're going to have
to push a little harder.

I really haven't slept much
over the past two weeks.

I'm... I'm tired, and, personally,

I just want to put this case behind us.

So, in the interest of time,
I am going to bluntly ask you

to tell us about the affair
you were having

while your husband was in rehab

and the name of the person
that you've been sleeping with.

How... How dare you?

You're gonna accuse me now
of having an affair?

Your child goes missing,
and you tell people everything

you know to get him back.

Everything. You don't lie.

She's not denying it.

My son is dead.

My husband is dead.

I will not be insulted this way.

Pardon the interruption.

We often come to a moment
like this when a suspect

doth protest too much.

A suspect? I'm a suspect now?
What am I a suspect in?

These marked charges on your
business credit-card statements

are all from hotels in L.A. County.

Where you live.

Even more interesting,
we reviewed records

from these hotels, and the check-in

and the check-out times were never

more than three hours apart.

Usually between : and : P.M.

Now, this is a pattern that has
gone on for close to six months,

ending abruptly right before

- [ CELLPHONE VIBRATES ]
- your husband returned

from his last stint in rehab.

TAO: Which, indicates to us,
maybe half-a-year

of afternoon delights?

So, are you the marriage police now?

I'm a suspect in what? Adultery?

How is this any of your concern?

Were you having an affair?



Oh, Ms. Garza, we need to know
whom you were you sleeping with.

It wasn't like that.

I don't care what it was like.

I want to know who.

You know, you've been against me
from the very beginning.

All of you go to hell!

[ DOOR OPENS ]

I would call that
confirmation of the affair.

So would I. Wes?

S.I.S. is set up to follow her.

SANCHEZ: Excuse me, Commander.
The FBI came up with

an interesting name
off the Garza patient list.

Someone who came back
from Mexico a few hours

before Lucas' body
was dumped in the church.

I'm going to run over and check it out.

Get video if they have it.

Yes, ma'am.

[ DOOR OPENS, CLOSES ]

Now comes the hard part.

FATHER JONAS: I want you to
know, if I'd had any information

that would've helped
you find the boys sooner,

I would have shared it in a heartbeat.

I understand. If you just answer

a few questions for us,
and we will be done.

This way, Father.

Sharon? A moment?

Um, your children told me
you had a health scare

over the weekend.

I'm fine now, Father.

If you'd like to observe
the interview in electronics,

come this way.

Uh, Sharon.


We've both been trying...
very hard... to balance

the needs of our separate
vocations with, um...

With what I think of as a deep,
personal relationship.

I've been praying
with you and your family

for the last years.

And it's as that person I ask,
"How are you feeling?"



[ VOICE BREAKING ] Almost...

Ov... overwhelmed.

Not by work or by the wedding.

But my children are concerned about me,

and they expressed
their fears to you, I c...

Christ is here to take
those fears away from them.

And to relieve you, also,
of all your worries.

My worries.

They're a lot to let go of.

Which is the purpose of faith.

We turn over that which
is beyond our control.

And take comfort in the fact that,

no matter what else happens,
God's will be done.

Of course.

His will be done.

His will be done.



NOLAN: We've taken
a suspect into custody.

But the defense will bring up
every hole in our investigation,

and because you were in Mexico,
where the boys were found,

we need an accurate timeline
of your travel

over the last days.

FATHER JONAS: I see. Okay.

I'm not a % positive,
but I may have found

where the boys were going
when they skipped out

on the field trip.

You don't need to be a % positive.

No, at this point,
we'd be happy with a wild guess.

Because he thought
he was coming right back,

Lucas didn't take his backpack
like the other boys did.

But he did take a small,
moleskin notebook,

which we never found.

I think the notebook
was to collect autographs.

Autographs from whom?

The L.A. Lakers rented out
their training facility

in El Segundo for a movie sh**t

during the first week of November.

And when they weren't
at the Staples Center,

they practiced at USC, including
the day of the field trip.

Also, the Garza practice was gifted

four behind-courtside seats
at Lakers games in Section

for Lakers home games.

Best seats in the house.

Maybe because they successfully
operated on so many Lakers.

SYKES: Doesn't going to visit
the Lakers support Dr. Garza

as having been involved
in his son's m*rder?

Not necessarily, no.

This could cut quite a different way.

Good work, Cami.

Now we're only have a few
missing pieces of the puzzle.

FATHER JONAS: I see
your trouble, but, um,

shifting immigration policies
have demanded

extraordinary measures on those of us

working to keep families
united during crisis.

And when it comes to
my travels to and from Mexico,

my responsibility to Christ...

Let me stop you
right there, okay, Father?

Because when you talk about your
responsibilities to Christ,

the defense will interrupt
and ask if that included

refusing to use
birth control while having sex

with the single moms
of some of your students.

Yeah.

Sorry, Father, but by not
answering our questions today,

you'll be on the stand
explaining whether or not

you used a condom when
having sex with Ms. Garza.

I deserve this accusation.

But I didn't have sex
with any of the boys' mothers.

Including Sara Garza. That was not me.

Okay then, Father,
if it wasn't you, who was it?

Lucas only spoke about this
subject during confession.

- I can't...
- Lucas is dead.

And the privileged nature of
his confession d*ed with him.

No. No. The Seal of Confession
is never broken.

Well, we just need to know
it wasn't you, Father.

Do you really believe Lucas
would confess to me anything

regarding his mother if he thought that

- I slept with her?
- Hey, look, Padre.

You have a pattern of behavior
the defense will use

to build up reasonable doubt.

You don't like the way
I'm questioning you now?

Wait until you swear to tell the truth,

the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth.

So help you God.

Okay.

- You want proof?
- Yeah.

Here it is.

[ SIGHS ]

I'm not physically,

uh... tempted

by Latinas.

Excuse me?

I'll identify all
of the women with whom I...

[SIGHS] I broke my vows.

And you'll find
every one of them was white.

I'm not proud of it.

But Latinas just

aren't my type.

But you're a Latino yourself.

That's all the explanation you get.

And Lucas never told me
the name of the person

with whom he thought
his mother was having

an affair anyway,

so that subject is closed.

And this is the passport I use

to get back and forth across the border.

Diego Alcaraz?

That's my brother.

He d*ed four years ago,

but we look so much alike,
I never get stopped.

BUZZ: But I don't understand.

If Father Jonas wasn't having
an affair with Ms. Garza,

who was?

SHARON: Ryan and will tell us.

EMILY: Mom, I don't think
you understand how complex

this itinerary is.

Everything has to be finished
at a certain time.

I'm afraid that includes
the church, because we have

a special Mass to say...
oh, uh, assuming you still

want me to marry you.

Of course, Father.
That's not the issue at all.

Look, you can have two more hours.

We'll wait and drive there together.

Deal? You love deals! Deal?

I have everything we need to do
your hair and makeup in the car.

Yeah, and I have everyone's clothes,

so you can change here or at the church.

RICKY: After the rehearsal...
Mom, Mom... we have

a pre-paid dinner at :
because the restaurant

closes at : .

And no stress, okay?

Yeah, no stress.

Uh, one second. Just... Just one second.

I have an answer to the schedule problem.

Andy, Come with me, please.
I'll be right back.

Just one second.

Dr. Redmond.

- Thank you for coming in.
- Of course.

Did you bring everything you need to make

the proper examinations?

I did. But what do you
want me to say to these boys?

Nothing yet. Just put what you need

out on the table
and make sure they're watching

what you're doing.

Uh, Andy, if you would show Dr. Redmond

to the conference room.

Okay. Uh, what about the rehearsal?

I'll take care of the kids if
you'll help Dr. Redmond set up.

Thank you.

Rehearsal?

Yeah, we're getting married tomorrow.

Congratulations. That's terrific.

Well, it will be if it happens.

In here, Doctor.

Emily and I extended our tickets

so we could hang out
a little while longer.

Okay. We will talk about this later.

I don't want or need anyone to rearrange

their lives for me right now.

- Seriously.
- Okay, well, back to

the rehearsal just for a second.

All that is required of me for
this rehearsal is to show up,

look great, and walk down the aisle.

I don't need to practice that.

- But, Mom...
- I said, "I don't need

to practice walking down the aisle."

Now, if you'd like to stay,

Rusty will show you to the break room.

Father, I'll see you tonight.

I think this is another
one of those moments

in which prayer
is your very best answer.

You always say that.

- Ricky!
- What?

The FBI found that one
of the Garza's patients,

an Olympic skier from Canada
named Damien Edlow,

used his passport to re-enter the U.S.

through a Tijuana checkpoint
the same night that

Miguel, Ryan, and Lucas were abducted.

- Could that be him? Edlow?
- Uh, let me play it again.

I can't tell what he looks like.

Maybe that's the point.

Well, I don't know who this guy is,

but he's not Damien Edlow.

Because I checked, and Edlow
had ACL surgery on his knee

eight hours before this video was taken,

and he was checked into a professional

rehabilitation center
with nurses all around him.

PROVENZA: Well, it looks
a little more like Dr. Garza

took the passport and abducted the kids.

And he is our guy with
a connection to the Lakers.

- [ TELEPHONE RINGS ]
- It seems to fit.

And that's not Edlow at the border.

- No, it's not.
- Excuse me, Commander.

It's Dr. Morales downstairs,

saying he has the photographs
you requested.

Good. Please ask him to come on up,

and, Lieutenant Provenza,
please notify Chief Mason

we're about to make an arrest.

Your case is almost over?
Who did it then?

SHARON: Sorry to inconvenience
you, but, as I explained,

this should all be over very shortly

and cause you no further pain.

Um, I guess we're about to find out.

DR. REDMOND: Okay, so, I'm going
to do a very quick examination

of the back of your throats
to check for any signs

of bruising or scarring.

Why the interest in our throats?

FLYNN: You both said your throats hurt

when you came to after the limo drive.

And if you were telling
the truth, there could still be

evidence of inflammation.

Unless anyone here would
prefer we not look.

Say the marks are there.
What does this prove?

Maybe that whoever abducted
the boys used a stomach pump

to force dr*gs into their systems.

DR. REDMOND: Okay.
This is going to tickle a bit.

Open wide. Wide.

All right. Thank you.

Okay.

Using a stomach pump backwards?

- Same for you. Head up.
- Except...

- Mouth wide.
- Say the doctor

doesn't find anything.

That could be what's about to happen.

Okay.

- Dr. Redmond.
- Oh, my God.

If he doesn't see anything, that means...

I'm sorry. There's no sign of scarring,

inflammation, or bruising
in their throats.

- Are you sure?
- Positive.

But you won't mind us getting
a second opinion, will you?

Hi.

Dr. Morales.

What's going on?

We're just checking the results
of your examinations

against photographs of the boys'
throats taken this morning.

Okay, if you already did an examination,

then why did you have me look again?

To catch you in a lie, Doctor.

FLYNN: Yeah, but not as big a lie

as promising Lucas
to take him and his friends

to meet the Lakers,

and then asking him not to tell anybody,

including his mother and father.

But Lucas trusted you.

You were partners with his father.

And maybe something more with his mother.

assh*le!

I hope they put you away for life.

I know you asked us not to
object or... or speak

during this...

but look at how many
families you've destroyed.

Just look!

Oh, my God.

SYKES: As a physician,
you had access to chloroform.

And could've acquired oxy
as easily as Mateo.

And the reverse stomach pump
stunt did the rest.

Here's the back of Ryan's throat.

And the back of Miguel's.

The marks are fainter,
naturally, but still visible.

Matching up to the mark on Lucas and...

Dr. Garza's throat.

All this trouble, Doctor.

Was it to get Sara Garza back?

Because Lucas freaked out
when his mother brought up

the idea of divorce and she left you?

Do you think murdering her son

and sprinkling oxy everywhere
would soften her heart?

TAO: Or were you mainly
after the practice?

Sara managed the books.

You covered for Garza
while he was in rehab.

Did you get used to
the extra billing paid out

to your account?

Wait. Before you answer that,

you have the right to remain silent.

He dumped Lucas' friends down in Mexico,

planted dr*gs on them,

and came back using a patient's passport.

I guess he thought the boys
would be kept in Mexico?

And he knew about Lucas'
diabetic condition.

He talked about it here a couple
of days ago in an interview.

FLYNN: You're a sick
little freak, aren't you?

Oh, but don't worry.

Sara already admitted to the affair.

That's... No, she did not.

- Oh.
- Oh, yes, she did, sir.

So, Mrs. Garza admitted to
having an affair with this guy?

- Uh...
- Ridiculous.

- Broadly speaking.
- This is ridiculous.

I haven't been to Mexico.

Check the border. Check the border.

You will see my name is...

Is not Damien Edlow,

who walked like he had
not just had knee surgery.

No, Doctor, we won't find your name.

But we found you.

This guy. He used race,
church scandals, and politics

to work up a country, all
because he was having an affair.

I want a lawyer.

Really? Why?



Yeah, romance.

Ain't love grand?

Despite there being no question
of their status

as illegal immigrants,
the Diaz family remains at large

due to a technicality.

Miguel, Miguel, how does
it feel to be home?

Mr. Diaz, Mr. Diaz.

Ryan Rojas remains in custody,

arrested on the unrelated m*rder

of his stepfather,

though the D.A.'s Office

plans on reducing those charges

to manslaughter, and will not

try Ryan as an adult.

With the expl*sive arrest
of Dr. Alan Redmond yesterday

and the discovery of the limo
he purchased off Craigslist,

the police have closed the case
of the St. Joseph's Three,

leaving Sara Garza to mourn
the loss of her entire family.

Meanwhile the priests
of the Los Angeles Archdiocese

return to their pastoral duties.

Shrugging off complaints about personnel,

Bishop Calhoun says

the Catholic Church will

"continue to serve its community

with faith and humility."
