Cardinal

Previously on Cardinal...

Just please tell me why you're doing this.

You should be happy.

You were gonna die tonight.

That's Katie's.

Where did you find it?

On Windigo island,

near the mineshaft.

She promised things would return to normal

when she's back in Financial.

What do you mean, when she's back in Financial?

Her transfer to CIS, it's some assignment.

You didn't know that?

My suspect cashed in chips four nights ago.

Do you think you could

get your hands on some of the money?

Just some serial numbers.

That's fresh money, straight from the bank.

Why would you launder new bills?

My wife

has bipolar disorder.

It's hard for Kelly to see her like this.

Woodrow "Woody" Baldwin.

Our thief follows his targets home

with their new stuff.

Then he hits their house later.

- Untie me! Untie me! - Shh-shh-shh.

ERIC!

I came for the guitar.

Ugh!

Found his truck.

Edie.

It's okay. Hey.

Nothing changes.

We're still gonna finish Keith.

We just can't do it here.

Why not?

Because of him.

If someone misses him,

if someone

knows where he went last night.

Maybe someone saw his truck out front.

Can't take that chance.

What are you looking at, Keith?

Where will we go?

I know a place. I do my photos there.

It's safe. It's clean.

No one's there.

Eric?

Eric.

Maybe we should just stop.

Maybe we should just be done.

How does that go?

I mean, how-how does that go?

How does that go?

We just wipe the slate clean?

Just keep your head.

It's just a normal day.

You go to work, get the drugs.

I'll get the new place set up.

We'll take Keith there tonight,

after dark, okay?

There's no excuse.

But right when we decided to start trying,

I got this assignment.

I knew the transfer was coming.

New department.

New partner.

It all felt like too much.

So you started taking them again?

I never stopped.

I know it's wrong.

You could have said no to the assignment.

It's a delay.

That's all.

Just to get through this.

I'm tired of being the one fighting for us, Lise.

If this isn't something that you want,

you need to say so.

It is.

I ran the numbers twice.

The money Cardinal used to buy chips

is straight from the bank.

It doesn't come from Corbett.

He's laundering his own money?

Clean money?

Why?

Same reason you'd

launder dirty money.

You disrupt the connection to the source.

It means he's not getting payoffs.

No, it means he's paying someone,

someone he doesn't want to be associated with.

So he's covering his tracks.

God, this is good, Delorme.

This is confirmation.

I don't see it.

Look, Cardinal tipped off Corbett.

That part we know.

He got a cop killed.

That's a hell of a secret.

That's the kind of secret

that you pay to keep quiet.

Come on. What is it?

I don't know.

I've worked with Cardinal now.

I wonder if he'd do it.

You said it yourself.

Would he doesn't matter.

Because he did.

You did good work, Delorme.

You find out who this guy is paying off,

we got him.

John.

You know how stupid it is to come here?

How'd you find my house?

Followed you from the station.

Yesterday.

Drove all over this pretty little town.

You even know how to use that thing?

Don't think it's very complicated.

What's this?

Everything I could manage

short of selling my house.

Will you walk out of here with that?

I never want to see you again.

Didn't agree to a buy-out.

Six months ago,

I caught this case.

Katie Pine.

A missing twelve-year-old girl.

It was my job

to find her.

But I didn't ask the right questions,

didn't look in the right corners.

And the man who did that

hasn't stopped.

Are you

trying to put this on me?

I can't do this anymore.

What about the dead cop?

You don't care about him anymore?

More than you'll ever know.

So you'll keep paying.

Or I'll tell the world.

My partner's investigating me.

If we keep this up,

we'll be caught.

I have no doubt.

Is he any good?

She is, yeah.

And for a second there,

I thought you were making a plea from the heart

but you're just afraid of getting caught,

just like everybody else.

Take the money.

Never come back.

Hey kiddo.

What? You're here-

you're here now?

Well I don't understand.

I thought you were...

what about class?

Well sure, sure.

I'll-I'll-I'll come pick you up.

I'll be right there.

Hey.

You should have told me you were coming.

I'd have got you a flight.

You would have said not to come.

That's okay.

Anyway, I like the bus.

Well it's just uh,

it's not a great time, Kel.

I know.

I saw the news.

I thought you can use some company.

Hey, what's a Form 1?

Why do you ask?

'Cause that's what mom is.

According to the nurse who wouldn't let me speak to her,

she's a Form 1.

It's just, uh,

it's just the way they-they keep track.

Dad,

I came all the way here.

Form 1

means that she's a,

a danger to herself and possibly to other people.

So she's in the hospital involuntarily.

So is it as bad as it's ever been?

That's not what you said.

I want to see her.

Cardinal.

White male, forties,

dumped sometime last night or early this morning.

Well that's way too old to be Keith London.

So who is this?

No ID yet,

but I'm guessing it's connected to the burnt out truck
