(gunfire, laser sounds)
(creature screeching)
(gunfire continues)
Caught, like, every third word of that, Papa.
Come help. Pop bag.
Pull it tight. Yeah.
(thudding)
Papa?
Ooh.
(Michael screaming)
♪ Boom, boom, boom, boom
♪ Bang, bang, bang, bang
♪ Boom, boom, boom, boom
♪ How, how, how, how
♪ Hey, hey
♪ You gotta come on.
(excited chatter in Vietnamese)
HANNAH: Excuse me.
Always this many lookie-loos at our crime scenes?
SEBASTIAN: Well, word got out that the vic was a local.
Petty Officer Aaron Trang.
He grew up on these docks until he joined
the Office of Naval Research.
Hey. CGIS was first on the scene.
I called you in as soon as I saw Trangs naval uniform.
And we appreciate the Coast Guards collaboration.
Jurisdiction has been transferred to NCIS,
but please, keep us in the loop.
Thank you. Might want to brace yourself.
Oh, not a point of pride, Gregorio, but Ive seen it all.
Yeah, well, Ive seen Jaws
a million times.
Im never gonna unsee this.
Oh.
Well, takes some powerful equipment
to do damage like that.
A shrimping boat propeller, from what I understand.
But after he was deceased.
Based on water temp and body bloat,
Id say hed been submerged
36, maybe 48 hours.
Trangs CO reported him UA
from his vessel here in the Gulf on Monday.
WADE: I wont have an official COD until
after the autopsy, but I can tell you this was no accident.
I found a section of rope tied around the victims torso.
Its a fishermans knot.
Yeah. The other end
was frayed and broke loose.
Yeah, probably from whatever weight it was tied to.
Someone wanted Petty Officer Trang to disappear forever.
Well, that makes it a homicide.
Yeah.
Lets dig into Trangs life,
build him a profile, see who wanted him dead.
Im all over it.
Wheres Lasalle?
(indistinct shouting)
LASALLE: I need you to calm down.
All right? Well get to each one of you as soon as we can.
It wont be fast enough.
If you dont let these fishermen unload their catch,
youre going to have a riot on your hands.
Look, its not my call, all right? The Coast Guard
gives word when they can offload their boats.
They need to move their shrimp to the processing plant before it spoils.
What they need to do is answer my questions.
These men are struggling.
We all got problems, all right?
But not as big as that dead sailor over there.
Hey, hey!
Back off! Back off!
Lets go! Back off!
Lets go. Clear out. Clear out.
Lasalle.
Sorry about that.
Youre just doing your job.
You have seemed a little on edge lately.
Is there anything I can do?
I appreciate that, but unless you can get the IRS
off my familys back, Im out of options.
I thought the tax fraud investigation was over.
It is, as of this afternoon, when I go in
and hear their findings.
Thats stressful.
Yeah, at best, Im walking into an ambush.
You should get out of here.
Clear your head.
No, maam.
Im gonna stay here until we find a lead on this case.
Well, we might already have one.
Trang and his cousin Amy were close.
Shes coming in on their family shrimp boat right now.
Ill stay and see what she has to say.
Oh, no.
Ill stay and see what she has to say.
Oh, no.
And muscle in on my girl time with Gregorio?
I dont think so.
We got this, Chris.
Take care of you, all right?
(man speaking Vietnamese)
Mr. Trang, do you understand what were saying?
Your nephew is dead.
Yes, I understand.
When did you last speak with Aaron? Been a while.
There was distance between us when he joined the Navy.
You didnt approve?
He was supposed to take over this boat.
To follow in my footsteps.
His fathers, too.
Where are his parents?
Katrina took them.
HANNAH: We have heard
things have been difficult lately for fishermen like you.
Hard enough scrounging for scraps.
But now, our fishing grounds are polluted.
Were on the water seven days a week, and barely surviving.
We were told your daughter Amy was close with Aaron.
We need to speak with her.
Is she here?
She was supposed to be.
Never showed up.
And that doesnt concern you?
My daughter is stubborn.
She does what she wants,
whether it concerns me or not.
Mr. Trang,
your nephew was murdered.
Amy might know by whom.
She might be in danger herself.
We need to find her, now.
King.
What are you doing here?
Thought you could use some moral support.
Howd you even know it was judgment day?
Silvera called me, gave me a heads-up about the meeting.
Professional courtesy.
Or a fair warning how bad itll be.
I appreciate you coming.
Know youre busy with your new job,
but, uh, I can handle this.
You can, but you dont have to.
At least not alone.
Eight million dollars?
Actually, with interest and penalties,
the Lasalle Enterprises liability is closer to ten.
(scoffs) This is crazy.
You might as well take my blood while youre at it.
Christopher, shes not the enemy.
And neither was my father.
And he wasnt a thief.
Findings are not an official indictment of your father,
but they do support the governments claims
of delinquent taxes.
How long does he have to settle up?
The first installment is due by the end of the month.
The companys on fumes as it is. What if we cant pay?
Well have no choice but to recoup the monies owed
in other ways: garnishment of earnings,
seizure of assets...
And since now Im technically the boss,
youd come after my assets next.
That shouldnt be your central concern.
Whats going on, King?
Youre a federal agent with top secret clearance.
Carrying that much debt could make you a target for blackmail.
Youd revoke my clearance.
Cant do your job without it.
Not that youd care,
but Id take a bullet before selling out my country.
I do care, Special Agent Lasalle.
And I sincerely wish my hands werent tied, but the numbers
dont lie, and all indications are that your father did.
Youre wrong about him.
Uh...
(grunts)
I dont want him to lose his badge,
but Ive got limited options.
Maybe theres a way we can both get what we want.
Chris.
I know what youre gonna say, King, but Im not giving up.
Exactly why I called Hannah.
Youll stand down from the team for the time being.
What, youre suspending me?
No.
Im giving you some time off.
Need your full attention focused on this.
Its the only way were gonna figure this IRS thing out.
Look, I didnt survive three bullets
to push paper around.
Im here because of my family.
And thats you.
Well, I spent months
searching for answers to this missing money.
Couldnt find anything useful.
Thats because you didnt have the entire IRS case files.
Put it in the back of the truck, fellas.
Thank you.
(chuckles)
This "Special Agent in Charge" title
comes with some serious perks. Yeah.
Well, we got three days,
boxes of evidence and a pair of stubborn investigators
who are gonna find that missing money
and prove your fathers innocence.
Amy Trang is no angel.
Her juvie rap sheet includes petty theft,
trespassing, criminal mischief.
Patton tracked her cell to her parents house.
Phone was there; Amy was not.
Since when have you seen a 17-year-old
go anywhere without their phone?
Since absolutely never.
Yeah.
NOPD still canvassing Village de LEst?
Nobodys seen her. And if they have, theyre not talking.
Well, theyre protecting their own.
Or keeping their dirty laundry private.
Ive seen it firsthand how immigrants
can feel pulled in two different directions.
My parents clung to their past
while they pushed me into my own future.
Yeah, sounds like my grandparents.
They left Sicily, but it never left them.
SEBASTIAN: Dumped Aaron Trangs phone records.
Found a disturbing text chain
between him and Amy the day before he disappeared.
Aaron told his little cousin
to slow her roll on something shady.
"Dont do this.
You and the guys are in enough trouble already."
GREGORIO: "You have no idea how dangerous and ruthless these people are."
PATTON: Last thing he told her was
he was gonna handle them himself,
that he was getting the proof.
Proof of what?
Well, whatever it is,
Proof of what?
Well, whatever it is,
it probably got Aaron killed.
If we dont find Amy fast, she could be next.
Aaron said "Amys
guys."
Aaron said "Amys
guys."
Whatever shes up to, shes not doing it alone.
Hey, Patton...
Already feeling you, boss.
There you go.
Amys last two contacts.
Hey, both numbers just pinged
off the same cell tower.
Theyre at the shrimping docks.
♪
Movement on the ladder!
WOMAN: Its the cops! Run!
Federal agents!
Stop climbing.
Come down here now.
(grunts)
Amy Trang.
You are one hard woman to find.
Lets go.
SEBASTIAN: All right, we got the others.
HANNAH: Weve got a bigger problem.
Everybody off the boat now!
Amy.
I need you to understand
how serious the charges are against you.
You mean criminal trespassing with an intent to commit
malicious destruction of property via felony possession
of an explosive device?
Someones been studying the penal code.
You dont seem too concerned.
Everyone knows the juvie system is a joke.
Ill get a slap on the wrist
and probation.
Yeah, for the lesser charges maybe,
but not for the two counts of attempted murder.
There were a couple of crew members
below deck on that boat you tried to blow up.
Guess you dont know everything.
In Louisiana, you will be tried as an adult,
and with the amount of evidence against you,
you will spend the next 30 years behind bars.
If youre lucky.
But our mission failed. We didnt hurt anyone.
Youre still guilty of intent, but if you cooperate,
maybe we can help you.
Was the sabotage of the boat
related to the murder of your cousin Aaron?
Aarons dead?
It was them.
It was Triton.
They killed him.
Triton Fisheries?
They killed him.
Triton Fisheries?
Theyve been trying to destroy Village de LEst for years.
Theyve been poisoning
our fishing grounds, and nobody was willing
to do anything about it, not our parents or the cops,
so we decided to send Triton a message.
We decided to fight back.
Aaron was helping? No.
He was trying to stop us.
Said he found a better way to prove
what they were doing to us.
How?
what they were doing to us.
How?
I dont know.
But you have
to arrest them all.
Theres no proof
that Triton was involved.
Tritons destroyed dozens of fishing communities
just like ours.
Theyll do anything for money,
even murder innocent people.
Thank you.
Im looking for Amy Trang.
Yeah, I remember you from the docks.
Are you a relative?
My name is Eddie Dao.
Are you a relative?
My name is Eddie Dao.
Im from Village de LEst.
The parents of the teenagers youve arrested
asked me to come check on them.
So youre a lawyer?
Just a concerned member
of the community.
Look, I know these kids.
Especially Amy.
Shes not evil, just angry.
You know, anger doesnt really justify what she was planning.
People couldve died.
You need to understand
the situation our people are in.
Families losing businesses, homes.
Its bleak, and the kids are the most vulnerable ones.
Theres no justification for violence,
but I beg you to see Amy and her friends
as the frightened children they are.
Reach out to the D.A.
Let them know the suspects are cooperating.
Were gonna recommend probation.
I will personally vouch we wont have any more trouble from them.
Copy that.
Mr. Dao, Im sympathetic
to your plight.
No one should feel that kind of despair, but...
recklessly lashing out, it just makes things worse.
Please share that message with the community, okay?
I will. And thank you.
Okay.
Youre taking a chance vouching for these kids.
Look, I have sat across from true extremists,
people who have no regard for who they hurt.
This is just not these kids.
I mean, especially Amy.
Shes just a confused girl thats trying to...
solve a problem that has no solution.
You think shes right about Triton Fisheries?
Maybe. I dont know.
You think shes right about Triton Fisheries?
Maybe. I dont know.
But were gonna need more than neighborhood gossip
to accuse a corporate giant of murder.
All right, this is how my father ran the business in the ground.
Handwritten invoices and Post-it notes.
I mean, how did he embezzle $8 million
when he couldnt even use a computer?
Yeah, well, follow the money, well knew the answer.
But you need to make peace with the truth, no matter what it is.
PATTON: Triple P
ready to drop a bomb on you.
Boom!
Scanned five years
of accounting records, and I used an algorithm
to do what the human eye cant.
Well, whatd you find?
The missing $8 million.
At least where it came from.
PRIDE: Looks like hundreds of small, internal transactions
moved back and forth between accounts?
Wheres the money now?
moved back and forth between accounts?
Wheres the money now?
Im still working on that.
But I do know where the transfers initiated from.
Same IP address and user.
An accountant, Leila Addison.
She quit three weeks after my father died.
That could be a coincidence.
Or it could be she embezzled the money herself
and set him up as the fall guy.
Where is she now?
and set him up as the fall guy.
Where is she now?
Heh. Closer than you think.
She moved to New Orleans a few months ago.
Lets go pay her a little welcome visit.
MAN: Heard about that sailors accident
on the news-- really sad story.
Oh, no, it wasnt an accident, Mr. Wilkins.
Petty Officer Trang was dumped in the Gulf
after he was murdered.
The Vietnamese fishermen seem to think
Triton had something to do with it.
Desperate men spin desperate tales.
Oh, so youre aware of the problems they were having?
Ive been where theyre at.
Busting my tail to barely make ends meet.
Tough times, its much easier
to point fingers
than take responsibility.
So your companys not trying
to run the mom-and-pop fishing companies out of business?
Of course not.
Theres enough fish
in that big old ocean for everyone.
Oh, yeah, it is big, huh?
Triton is, uh,
based in Texas, right?
Corpus Christi.
GREGORIO: Oh, so your trawlers must burn
a lot of diesel making that trip from here to there.
Oh, yeah, a significant expense spared if you got
a mid-Gulf distribution center in New Orleans.
One maybe just like the Vietnamese processing plant?
Not a secret.
We made a fair offer to buy em out.
Even invited the local shrimpers to join our crews.
They
said no. GREGORIO: So maybe you decided
to force their hand by poisoning their waters
to make it impossible for them to stay in business.
Youre wrong. If anything, theyre harassing
us.
Youre wrong. If anything, theyre harassing
us.
Vandalizing our boats.
Now an attempted bombing.
I feel bad for whats happened to those fishermen,
I do, but they keep coming at us,
and well do whatever it takes...
to defend our property.
This is Leila Addisons address.
Not exactly a mansion.
Well, you steal $8 million,
you might want to lay low a little before spending it.
Finished all my homework, Ma.
Can I watch TV now?
How about you do a little reading instead,
okay, sweetie pie?
Okay.
Look, much as a single mother could use some extra cash,
I didnt take a penny that wasnt earned.
A lot more than pennies
passed through your computer, Ms. Addison.
I am an accountant.
Moving money around is literally the job.
But not stealing it.
I would never do that to your father.
I loved working for him.
All of his employees did.
Then...
All of his employees did.
Then...
whyd you leave the company, Leila?
After Beau passed, I couldnt bear watching it all fall apart.
Especially after the IRS swept in.
Then whyd you move to New Orleans?
I grew up here.
A bookkeeping position came up in my old church.
Felt like a sign from above.
Mm-hmm. Time for a change.
Time for stability.
Oil industry is feast or famine.
Beau expanded during the last boom,
but when things went bust,
he couldnt keep up, and the layoffs began.
Well, he didnt lay
you
off.
Yeah.
Well, he didnt lay
you
off.
Yeah.
Because I was helping him keep the doors open,
even if that meant trimming the fat
to the bone. Your father took on
the work of half a dozen people.
He even paid the bills himself.
Wasnt that your job?
It used to be...
until things got tight.
And after that, I would just transfer
the funds into an account,
and he would distribute the money as he saw fit.
And let me guess-- you aint got a clue where that money went.
He didnt tell me.
And I didnt ask.
We trusted each other.
I knew he was doing
everything he could to save Lasalle Enterprises.
And when he got back from Jamaica, there was
an optimism in his eyes
that I hadnt seen in a really long time.
Jamaica?
My father? Since when?
Yeah, he went right before he died.
Why would someone go on vacation
when their business is on the verge of collapse?
GREGORIO: Triton has a long history
of steamrolling smaller fishing communities,
and Brett Wilkins
is the field general.
Arrests for harassment intimidation, stalking.
But the cases are always tossed.
Yeah, well, thanks to Tritons deep legal pockets.
This is a war for total industry dominance.
Hey, Doc.
Ah, youre just in time.
(sighs) It appears
Petty Officer Trang did drown,
but not in the Gulf.
I found potable water in his lungs.
He drowned on land?
The lung tissue
He drowned on land?
The lung tissue
showed signs of cold burn,
which suggests extended contact with ice water.
Bruising on the back of his neck is the result
of being...
held under for some time.
What about this imprint on his face-- looks like a...
a pattern?
Impression marks.
Something was pressed
against the skin
after his death.
Trang may have given us a clue
straight from Davy Jones Locker.
Do you have any idea how weird you are?
Yes.
So, I took a mold of Trangs facial muscles,
and I enhanced the imprint.
Asian characters.
Vietnamese logograms, to be exact.
Yeah, and when translated, it means...
New Dawn.
His uncles boat.
SEBASTIAN: Yeah.
(siren wailing)
HANNAH: Were too late.
If there was any evidence on board, its gone now.
Its Triton!
You know this is Triton!
Triton!
(indistinct shouting)
(door opens)
Why are you keeping me here?
I am the victim.
You recognize this, Mr. Trang?
Its the
New Dawn commemoration plaque.
Its the
New Dawn commemoration plaque.
GREGORIO: Yeah. Aarons dead body was lying on it
before being dumped in the Gulf from your boat.
Thats not possible.
GREGORIO: GPS shows
two recent middle-of-the-night trips
to your shrimping grounds.
HANNAH: First trip was three nights ago.
The next was the night Aaron was killed.
Aaron was like a son to me.
I would never hurt him.
Mr. Trang, I believe that.
But I also think you know more than youre telling us.
I have the utmost respect
for your loyalty to your family.
It reminds me a lot of my own.
But the best way for you to honor Aaron
is to help us find his killer.
He came to me.
Wanted to clear the air between us.
Then he asked to borrow the boat.
But only that one time.
Did he say why he needed it?
Only that he was trying to save our way of life.
Aaron and I had our differences,
but Ill always be proud of him.
He deserved better than this.
Youre right, Mr. Trang, he did.
Man, it look like your pops Jamaica trip
wasnt a onetime thing.
He was flying down every couple of months.
Why didnt he tell me?
My guess is he was trying to protect you.
From what? And why Jamaica?
To cover up his real destination.
You dont have to protect me, P.
I want to know.
Grand Cayman.
Its only an hour charter out of Kingston.
That old selfish son of a...
Hang on, now, Christopher.
We dont have the full story yet.
No, Im done pretending, King.
All right, Beau Lasalle was as guilty as sin.
Set himself up a secret retirement fund
in a untouchable Cayman bank.
Let the truth come out.
All right, the family name can be mud, but not the company.
These are good, honest, hardworking people.
Need to make this right
so Lasalle Enterprises stays afloat.
How?
Gonna find every penny my father stole
and pay off those taxes.
Im going to see Leila Addison.
If she didnt help steal the money,
maybe she can help get it back.
Hey. Ginny.
Special Agent Pride.
I thought you were working from home today. I am.
Just came by to grab a few files off my desk.
Top secret project?
Its a practice test for night school.
The phones have been dead,
so I figured...
Thats okay.
I wont tell the boss.
What you got?
Masters in Criminology?
With an emphasis in investigative technique,
procedure and evidence.
Good for you.
I only have three semesters left.
Well, dont let me slow you down.
Ginny, you might want
to check number six.
I think its a trick question.
Gregorio.
Pride. Hey.
So, this is how the other half lives. Fancy.
Well, its not the NCIS squad room,
but it has a certain charm.
If you say so.
You all right? Yeah.
I just need some perspective on a case.
The murdered Naval Research officer?
Yeah. The victims uncle is a legit suspect, but I just...
it just doesnt feel right in my gut.
What does Hannah think?
Shes on the same page.
Sounds like you already got
all the perspective you really need.
Maybe.
Or maybe I just missed your face.
I miss yours, too.
Hannahs great. Shes just not you.
(chuckles): Maybe... maybe thats a good thing.
And it balances out the boy/girl ratio,
and Im pretty sure Sebastians afraid of her.
(laughs): Thats a win-win situation.
If you say so.
Youre worried about Lasalle?
Its that obvious?
You could call.
Yeah, no, hes got a lot on his plate.
I was hoping you could fill me in.
Doesnt look too good for him right now,
but Chris is a fighter.
Hell, yeah, he is.
Yeah. One way or another,
hes gonna get the answers he needs.
Yeah.
hes gonna get the answers he needs.
Yeah.
I just hope whatever those answers are,
he can live with them.
SEBASTIAN: I know why Aaron Trang
was borrowing the
New Dawn.
He was collecting water samples from the Gulf.
He submitted them to Navy ONR
for testing.
Location tags tie them
to Vietnamese fishing waters.
He was trying to find
evidence of the contamination.
That was the proof that someone was poisoning the waters.
Yeah, except he didnt find any.
The water samples were clean.
Then how are the Vietnamese losing so much of their hauls?
Because they were being sabotaged somewhere else.
Why poison
100 miles worth of open water
when you can get the job done in a single location?
The processing plant. Tritons offer was refused,
so theyre closing the deal a different way.
SEBASTIAN: If Aaron traced the sabotage
to the plant, Wilkins couldve eliminated him,
framed his uncle for the murder.
Sebastian and I will head to the plant.
Look for evidence that links back to Triton.
Ill dig deeper into Wilkins.
LEILA: Bye, buddy. Have a good day, okay?
I will.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Nice school.
Most expensive one in the parish.
Weve already danced this dance, Agent Lasalle.
I didnt steal any money.
Tell me how a church bookkeeper affords private school.
My son is gifted.
His academic achievements awarded him a scholarship,
which is something that Im very proud of.
I may need to verify that with the school administrator.
You can do whatever the hell you want.
I am done defending myself
for something that I didnt do.
No, youre right.
Youre not the bad guy.
Im sorry.
But my father was.
What?
Well, he stole everything from the employees
he said he loved like family.
Only person he really loved was himself.
No. Beau wouldnt do that.
Well, the evidence suggests otherwise.
I knew your father as well as I knew anyone,
and I have never met a finer man in my life.
Help me find the money.
Prove me wrong about my father.
(man speaking Vietnamese)
(gasps)
My parents are mortified.
If the contamination is really happening in our own house,
they blame themselves.
No, tell them its not their fault.
(speaking Vietnamese)
Do you know this man?
(woman gasps)
(speaking Vietnamese)
We all know Wilkins. When we refused
to sell out to Triton, he tried to intimidate us.
And you stood your ground.
My people are resilient,
but Im afraid
without this plant and the local fishermen,
our community wont survive.
Mr. Dao, whats security like here? You have guards
or surveillance cameras?
We process shrimp, not state secrets.
Well, Ill do a sweep for forensic evidence,
but Im assuming the place is sanitized daily.
Per regulation.
Still our best bet, Sebastian.
Ill go get my kit
and then Ill contact the Coast Guard.
Maybe get their pollution inspection team out here
to help out.
Thats Dith Trang.
(shouting in Vietnamese)
I dont think that bats for playing baseball.
Hey! What the hell are you doing?
Thats my truck!
NCIS! Everybody break it up!
Break it up! Hey!
Industrial acetone.
This stuff works as well as gasoline
when youre starting a fire.
Especially on a boat.
WILKINS: Thats not mine.
Chemical signature of the acetone
found in your truck
matched what was used
to torch Dith Trangs boat.
GREGORIO: And conveniently
destroyed any evidence on board that would point
to his nephews killer.
I dont know how that got in my truck.
I didnt start any fires, and I sure as hell
didnt kill anyone.
Just like you havent been sabotaging
the Vietnamese fishermen.
Like I told you,
the Vietnamese fishermen.
Like I told you,
Tritons not involved with any of this mess.
Your company is not in this room,
Mr. Wilkins. Its just you.
At the end of the day, theyll say you acted alone,
hang you out to dry.
Unless I give you a bigger fish to fry.
Is that what were doing here?
Tell us who ordered you
to go after the Dao family and silence Aaron Trang,
we could probably make a deal.
That sounds really good.
Problem is, Im... not... involved.
Somebodys settin me up.
Yeah, well, the evidence says otherwise.
Aside from the acetone,
we got witness statements here about your
past harassment.
Look, home office wasnt happy
with the Daos refusal to sell.
Maybe we put a little extra pressure.
Contaminating shrimp isnt extra pressure.
Its sabotage.
Corporate told me to back off weeks ago.
Theyre already negotiating with another facility
over on Grand Isle.
One that wont play games.
What does that mean?
Triton only tried to buy the Daos plant
because we heard they were courting offers.
Next thing we know, its off the market.
Heard from who?
Word on the dock spreads as fast as word on the street,
especially with gossip like this.
It may not look like much,
but that processing plants worth a fortune.
(sighs)
The Daos would never sell their family plant.
Mm-hmm. Question is, who would?
You sure its the same routing number?
Yes, maam.
Thank you for your time.
What did he do for the Andersons?
Medical bills for their boys surgery,
paid in full.
Well, Charlie Anderson always did made Beau laugh. (laughs)
PRIDE: So your father did embezzle the money, but hes
gifting it back to his employees from beyond the grave?
Mm, guilty as charged.
All payments coming from the Caymans.
But any luck figuring out whos sending the money?
Every gift tracks back to the same bank.
Now, itll take me some time to crack their security,
that is... if you even want me to.
Dads still here, trying to make this right.
Told you he didnt keep that money for himself.
Just kept it from the IRS.
PATTON (chuckling): Yeah.
Well, noble as all this is,
the governments not gonna give you a pass on those taxes.
Well, some of this money-- we can get it back.
The employees...
Theyll understand.
Yeah, they werent just employees.
They were family.
This guys a monster, even towards his own family.
After Eddies parents shot down Tritons offer,
he went behind their backs
and petitioned the court for power of attorney.
Yeah. Claims his parents were unfit
to run their own processing plant.
Court rejected the claim, so it looks like
he found a new angle to force the sale.
Well, points for ambition, huh?
Learned it in New York.
Well, points for ambition, huh?
Learned it in New York.
Swam with the venture capital sharks, but never found funding.
And when his parents got in the way,
he started sabotaging their livelihood.
Aaron was trying to stop him.
Yeah. And we know how that turned out.
Mm-hmm.
How do we get this guy?
Its all theory right now.
Eddies been really good at covering his tracks.
Mm-hmm.
Eddies been really good at covering his tracks.
Mm-hmm.
Dith Trang just called. Amys missing again.
He thinks shes gonna make another move against Triton.
Amy has no idea shes fighting the wrong enemy.
Eddies the one ripping their community apart.
And Tritons done showing mercy.
This could be really dangerous for her.
Okay. Stay on Eddie. Our theorys sound,
but we need some real evidence.
Where are you going?
Im gonna try the impossible and convince a teenager shes wrong.
HANNAH: Whatever you think youre doing,
just dont.
I have to be the one.
It has to be me.
For Aaron.
I wont let you stop me from killing Eddie.
Amy,
youre gonna give me the gun, okay?
No.
Yeah, Amy.
Youre gonna lower the gun.
Youre gonna hand it to me, okay?
Im gonna make sure that you dont screw up
the rest of your life, okay?
Its non-negotiable.
How did you know it was Eddie?
My dad told me that Aaron was dumped from the
New Dawn,
My dad told me that Aaron was dumped from the
New Dawn,
and I did what you couldnt and asked around the docks.
Cause word on the dock spreads
as fast as it does on the street, huh?
Night Aaron died, people saw him with Eddie.
(crying): I just knew.
They were best friends when they were kids.
Went out on our boat all the time.
Things changed.
Because Aaron joined the Navy?
No.
Aaron never stopped being proud of who we are,
but Eddie hated where we come from.
He got out.
Resented coming back.
Aaron paid the price.
If youre looking for justice for your family...
this is not the way.
Then how?
Ill show you, okay?
If you trust me.
(sighs)
(insects trilling)
AMY: Eddie?
(gasps) Geez.
Amy. You scared me.
I thought I was all by myself.
Sorry. Wasnt trying to sneak up on you.
I thought I was all by myself.
Sorry. Wasnt trying to sneak up on you.
Gregorio says that deputies are holding a five-block perimeter,
so if anything goes south, theyll be ready.
Yeah, Im hoping it wont.
Okay, then. What are you doing here?
I know that our waters are not contaminated.
Our shrimp are being poisoned at this plant,
and youre the one doing it.
Where did you get that from?
Aaron.
He told me everything.
And I know you were with him the night that he died.
Shes poking the bear.
Its all right. Give her a minute.
EDDIE: Have you told anyone else about this? No one.
Youre like family, Eddie.
I needed to hear it from you first.
Tell me what happened that night.
I thought he understood what was at stake,
what Im fighting to protect.
Were clinging to a way of life thats dying,
and if we dont adapt, we cease to exist.
That doesnt explain why Aarons dead.
He confronted me about the sabotage.
I tried to convince him
that change was best for all of us.
The money Im going to make from selling this plant
can go back into the community.
Still not telling me what happened.
He stood in the way of progress,
and I couldnt let that happen.
He pushed me, I pushed him back.
He hit his head on the side of the boat,
fell over.
But he was already dead before he was on the boat.
How did you know that?
I...
Damn it. Got to get in there.
You talked to the cops.
Eddie... just...
just give me a moment to explain it to you.
(grunts) (gasps)
(Eddie yells, Amy gasps)
(muffled screams)
SEBASTIAN: Eddie, let her go!
(Eddie grunts)
(wheezes, gasps loudly)
Youre okay.
Come on. You okay?
(panting) Youre okay.
(garbled radio transmission, distant siren blaring)
(car door closes)
Its okay, Amy.
May I?
Youre a very brave young woman.
Aaron wouldve done the same for me.
Then you honor his legacy, Amy.
You be the woman you know he wanted you to be.
You need any advice, you call me.
Okay?
Thank you. Thank you.
Got to be honest with you, Special Agent Lasalle.
Im really hoping to hear some good news from you.
Please...
tell me you found the money.
Well, the money my dad took-- its gone for good.
I am sorry to hear that.
We were all hoping for a different outcome.
Does Lasalle Enterprises have enough cash on hand
to cover the first payment?
No, maam, we do not.
Then youre in a tough spot.
Until the debt is cleared, youll have to hold on
to his badge.
Dont think thatll be necessary.
LEILA: Connors gonna miss this school.
LASALLE: Hes not going anywhere.
He belongs here. Hes staying.
Tuition paid with ill-gotten gains...
I cant.
(chuckles) Its not ill anymore.
Im squarin it with the IRS.
Youre shutting down the company, arent you?
We liquidate, may just break even with the government.
But those assets are your inheritance.
(laughs) They never belonged to me.
They belonged to my fathers family. All of you.
Hmm.
You know, he talked about you all the time.
Bragged to anybody who would listen
about his boy who was out there saving the world.
I know you two had your issues,
but he was so proud of you.
Thank you, Miss Addison.
Chris?
I dont really have a lot friends
here anymore.
Would you like to join Connor and me for supper tonight?
Ah, thanks for the invite, but I couldnt.
Well, now, wait a minute.
You dont even know what Im cookin yet.
Barbecue brisket, fresh pecan pie.
(laughs)
Now, only a crazy person would turn down an offer like that.
(laughs)
