- Archer. - The northbound arriving.

- You get on it. - Is he alive?

Just get on the train.

Say, "Bye, Dad."

Bye, Dad.

- Yes? - Next stop, you get off.

I need to know. Is he alive?

Just follow my instructions, Mr. Archer.

- But... - At the next stop, get off...

...switch to the red line.

Red line train south is now departing. Please stand clear of the doors.

Red line train south now departing at Platform B.

Red line train south now departing at Platform B.

Next stop, Walnut Station.

Next stop, Walnut Station.

- In the van? - That's correct, Mr. Archer.

And the bag?

It stays with you.

Put it on.

Well...

...we did it.

- You did it. - Yeah!

The O.G.O. Complex is...

...well...

...it's this firm's crowning achievement is what it is.

We went up against the biggest-shots in this city. But you know what?

We landed it.

Now, there are many of you to thank.

I'm gonna start with Tom Archer.

Tom, what can I say?

You know how I feel about you.

You are the man.

The work that you and your team did on this design...

...is stunning.

Simply stunning. And I thank you.

Come here.

He's right, you know.

You are the man.

- It's good to be the man. - Yeah.

Come here.

- Where is he? - Through the looking glass, Mr. Archer.

We told the babysitter we'd be home at midnight.

The babysitter will be fine.

Maybe we should just call.

You know what? I'll call her when I'm done with you.

I love you.

We can see everything you do, Mr. Archer.

So do exactly as you're told.

Leave the old key in the gym bag in the room.

Then take the new key and the flashlight.

Then go back into the hallway.

Good. Now take a left...

...and go to the end of the hallway and down the stairs.

You should have called her.

Honey, she's 16. She'll be fine.

Hey.

What?

The door is open.

Amy?

Amy.

Maybe she's up with Tyler.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

- No. Tyler! - Sarah. Sarah.

Sarah, call 911. Go. Go.

Tyler. Tyler?

Tom.

Tyler! No!

No!

Tom!

- Yes? - Mr. Archer...

...this is the man that murdered your son...

...and brutalized your wife.

You sure?

We have a positive match to the blood and hair samples...

...taken from your home.

As you see, he's quite alive.

You'll find everything you could possibly need...

...in the room.

Remember, we're watching you.

Hi, Dad.

Do you remember this boy?

Look again.

Of course you don't.

But you will.

Don't worry about this.

I'm just warming up.

I'm gonna ask you again.

Do you remember that boy?

You don't remember killing my son, huh?

You're a fucking liar.

You attacked my wife.

- You feeling any better? - My wife.

They've already taken her to County General.

A police officer will give you a lift.

Mr. Archer, I know it doesn't seem like the right time...

...but can you give me anything more on the man who attacked you?

Anything?

How about the babysitter? She have a boyfriend?

- Anything. - I don't know.

I just wanna see my wife.

Hey.

It's hot.

Well, give it a minute.

Mr. Archer, I'm sorry to intrude but do you have a minute?

I really shouldn't be here telling you this...

...but if what happened to you happened to me, I'd wanna know.

What? What's going on?

I've been reassigned to another unit.

Okay, so who's your replacement?

Well, that's just it, sir. There is no replacement.

With budget cuts, the department...

...we're short of manpower.

Is it officially unsolved?

What about my son? My wife?

Well, it won't be official. It's just no one's assigned to the case anymore.

It'll just go away.

But how can you do that?

I'm really very sorry, Mr. Archer.

It's a lousy thing.

Wait.

If I were you, you know what I would do?

I'd dedicate my life to finding that piece of shit.

Every penny, every resource, everything and anything.

I'd find him...

...roast him on a spit.

If you need something, anything...

...give me a call.

Look what you've done.

I need some time.

Away.

To be alone for a while.

Every time I look at you, I see him.

It's killing me.

You're gonna pay.

You're gonna pay.

I'm gonna put this through your goddamn skull.

Not yet.

Look at me.

Look at me.

All right.

That's fine, tough guy.

We got plenty of time.

Look at me!

Look at me!

You are going to die.

Now look at me.

Good.

- This is bullshit. - Mr. Archer.

- Detective. - I got this, fellas.

Mr. Archer, you're upset. Let's take a seat.

You come to my house and you drop a fucking bomb on me like that?

Mr. Archer.

I'm a good man.

I follow the rules. I do everything I'm supposed to do.

I've never had a speeding ticket and this is what I get?

You call yourself cops?

I tried to explain.

Look, no. My wife.

This has destroyed her. And... do something.

- My hands are tied. - They're tied?

Do your fucking job.

Mr. Archer, think about what's really going on.

Find me the man.

You punched a cop?

I tried to.

- You realise how that sounds? - You don't understand.

No, and I don't pretend to understand.

I can't imagine what you're going through.

But, Tom, you need to ask yourself if what you're doing is helping.

You haven't been into the office in three months.

Hey, then fire me.

I'm not gonna fire you.

This isn't about your job.

I want you to take all the time you need.

Then I want you back.

But I can't use you like this.

Tom, I think you need help.

I'm fine.

You're fine?

Take a look around you, Tom.

I'm bailing you out of jail.

Listen. The desk sergeant said the detective you took a swing at...

...won't press charges if you agree to get counselling.

- A psychiatrist? - Yeah.

The department uses him...

...for officers and fire-fighters who've been through traumatic events.

Call him.

Rise and shine.

Let's try the other one.

- Yes. - Are you okay, Mr. Archer?

- Is everything to your satisfaction? - I don't know.

Do you need assistance?

I just need a minute.

Is everything all right?
