Eyewitness

- Previously on "Eyewitness"... - I've got three dead bodies.

One strand of hair.

And no witnesses.

Philip, come on, we gotta go, let's go!

The killer is still out there.

Special Agent Ryan Kane.

I keep seeing it. I can't make it stop.

I can't go to this stupid overnight.

I got an idea. Let's go to the city.

What the hell, Philip? This is a gay club?

I thought this would help.

Your new friend there, Angel,

is getting into drug deals with Mithat Milonkovic.

Find my drugs.

Where are the goddamn drugs, Chris?

Helen Torrance.

She used to be some kind of hotshot homicide detective up in Buffalo.

Sheriff Torrance found a strand of hair

in the trunk of a car at the crime scene.

The hair belongs to Bella Milonkovic.

Mithat's daughter.

Brought you somethin'.

If Helen finds you, we'll both be in a lot of trouble.

Shh. Shh.

I get you sneaking out, doing your own thing.

But you knew we'd find out, right?

Did you tell Helen?

Not yet, but she's worried about you, Philip.

Yeah, I know.

So why don't you tell me what's going on?

Were you with Lukas?

No.

Okay.

So why'd you skip the trip?

I didn't... feel like I needed to go.

The school thought it was important

that you work through your feelings

about Tommy and Tracy's overdosing.

- It's not that. - Well, what is it, son?

My mom had this boyfriend, Billy.

He did a lot of drugs,

so I'd stay away from him...

so he wouldn't hit me.

I'm sorry.

But Philip... you're not there anymore.

One time, he was on this... this yellow couch

in the courtyard.

His eyes were closed.

He was smiling.

He looked like he was sleeping, you know?

So I just kept sitting next to him.

Just pretending that he liked me.

But he didn't wake up.

I didn't want to think about all that stuff again.

I don't want Helen to know.

Hey, we don't keep secrets around here.

It feels like she doesn't even want me here.

That's not true, Philip.

- Okay? It... -

Hello.

Hey.

What am I missing out here?

I was just helping Philip with his history test.

So after they finished with all that therapy bullshit,

we had a séance for Tommy and Tracy.

I swear, I could, like, feel them.

Yeah, whatever.

You're just pissed you weren't there.

Why would I go when I have a race to train for?

May I have your attention, please?

Lukas Waldenbeck and Philip Shea,

please report to the principal's office immediately.

- Oh! Busted. - Philip?

I swear, that guy's like obsessed with you or something.

Yeah, idiot's probably still crying 'cause I kicked his ass.

No, no, no, hey. Hey.

No crying at the doctor.

I want you to be tough like your dad.

And when you get older, you're gonna get inked like him too.

But no gangland shit.

And then, maybe later, you're gonna have a record label.

And respect.

Okay?

Like Fortune 500 respect.

Like, rich folks in Los Angeles are gonna come up to...

Shh, shh, shh. It's okay. It's okay.

I'm gonna settle it with Mithat.

Okay? You don't have to worry.

Yeah, well, I'm real worried, Sita.

- It's all good. - It's not.

Mithat won't do a deal with us

until you return the junk that he paid you.

Okay, I... gave it to Chris,

and he hid it, but I will find it.

We got 24 hours.

After that, there is no deal.

Okay.

Well, listen.

Sita, once all this blows over,

when you're ready, me and you and Jakey...

we... we can have something.

Thanks, Angel, I know. When I'm ready.

If you don't make this right with Mithat tomorrow,

the brothers...

They're gonna want you de-branded.

Can't you just tell them that I'm gonna be your girl?

Doesn't matter.

You made a deal behind our backs.

- You broke the rules. - Screw the rules.

I can't. I made them.

No. Listen. Come here.

24 hours.

- Sheriff Torrance? - Yes.

Special Agent Ryan Kane.

- Hi. - Hi.

Look, I'm sorry I wasn't able to meet with you the other day.

Me too.

Obviously didn't realize it was so urgent.

Yeah, neither did I.

To be honest, I was surprised you asked me to be here.

And why's that?

I just got the impression you were maybe a little...

territorial.

Well, I'm a firm believer in the chain of command.

So you know this case is out of my jurisdiction.

32 miles, to be exact.

So why break the chain for me?

Main target of my task force is about to learn that his daughter

was found hanging from a billboard in a vacant lot.

We're ready for you.

I've been to dozens of these.

I still can't handle the smell.

Here I figured you for a tough guy.

Makes two of us.

I wonder which is worse for a parent.

What's that?

Losing your child to suicide...

or murder.

What do you think inspired that hairstyle?

The red tips? I'm not sure.

So it's confirmed that it's suicide?

Ligature marks are consistent with self-inflicted hanging.

Any sign of penetration?

The father denied autopsy.

She's a teenage girl.

- We need to get a rape kit. - I can't authorize that.

Do you have a superior, someone I can talk to?

No, she's gonna say the same thing as me.

You can't mandate a rape kit.

There was no indication of a struggle.

Where you going with this, Helen?

I don't know. I was hoping Bella would tell me.

I think maybe you need to take another angle.

There's something here.

I think she might have had sex the night she died.

Look, you should see this girl's file. Okay?

- The poor thing was a mess. - There was a boyfriend.

I don't know who, but she had plans to meet him the night she died.

Whoever he is, he should be considered a suspect.

Some local kid?

I don't know, but if we got the DNA...

We need that rape kit.

Court has to see evidence of foul play before it can go to forensics.

- Agent Kane... - Ryan, please.

Okay, Ryan. The FBI can pull rank on this, right?

An autopsy would trigger a criminal investigation.

I am aware of that.

If Mithat thinks this wasn't a suicide,

he's going to stop doing business until he finds out what happened.

So this is about you making a drug bust instead of finding a killer?

Yes. Until I'm convinced there's even a killer to find.

So let me convince you. I'll take you to the cabin and walk you through the case.

Okay.

Thank you.
