Deception

- Vivian found evidence that proved lyritrol's a bad drug.

I told my dad, three days later,

- Lyritrol has just been approved by the fda--

Congratulations on lyritrol.

To help our competitors beat us to market?

- I go where the money is. - What you saw were fake tests.

- Board of directors wants you to step down.

Did I kill kimberly yaeger?

Haverstock kept it. I did what I thought was right.

- You have no idea what's right!

- Deputy, I wonder if I might have a word with that young man.

- If you really want to do this, now is the time.

I'm your father.

- What? Is everything okay? - Teo hooked me up.

Hope my protection didn't cost too much

Of your husband's money.

- I want something to happen here.

Dump him. Break his heart.

Don't break mine. - You're a cop.

- Uhh! - Get down!

- Oh, this is some real red dawn action here.

- Gabe, put the evidence down, please.

- So what do we have on these guys?

- Russian mob, out of brighton beach.

- This one's andrei ivanov, ex-russian military.

He's our hit man. - What about his partner?

- Well, we don't have much to go on.

He's maybe six feet tall, brown eyes.

English is not his first language.

- All right, well that narrows it down to everyone

I've ever had jury duty with.

- We don't know who he is or where he's hiding.

- I tried pulling the prints from the phone booth,

- What kind of psycho kills two people and his own daughter?

You really think that's robert bowers?

- Well, that's not the man I knew, but...

It's been 17 years, and things change.

- You ready to throw some rocks?

- Yep! - Okay.

Let's get the alligator. Come on.

- Yippee! - Whoa, get em.

Aah! Dad, you're gonna drop me.

- I wouldn't drop you, eddie spaghetti.

I would never drop you. -

It's time.

You sure you want to do this?

- How do I sleep at night if I don't?

- How do you sleep at night if you do?

It's a big bomb.

- Do you have any other idea how to protect

My wife and children?

No.

But you understand what will happen next?

Nuclear winter.

- What the hell is going on? Are we being attacked?

Turn on the tv.

- In the effort to rush lyritrol to market,

Shortcuts were taken.

Lives were lost. - What is this?

- To fast track the approval process,

The trial results were altered to hide the deaths

Of 27 people in thailand,

19 people in mexico,

25 in poland, for an overall death toll

Of 107 participants in over five different countries.

Rather than conducting another round of trials

To perfect the drug, the data was falsified

And the people who died during the testing

Were deleted from the roster.

And the victims' families were paid off

In exchange for their silence.

The claims were originally brought to my attention

By one of the researchers who oversaw

The lyritrol drug trials in thailand.

But as founder and ceo of the company

That bears his name, my father is ultimately

Responsible for everything

That bowers pharmaceutical produces.

Unfortunately, this evidence only recently

Came to my attention, or I would have acted sooner.

I should have acted sooner.

Lives could have been saved.

- Is this connected in any way to your sister's murder?

Um...

- That was edward bowers, claiming his father's company

Tried to cover up a killer drug.

This is all very surprising, given the...

- Is this why vivian was murdered?

No!

- Is what he's saying about lyritrol true?

- Of course not. - Dad, this is edward.

This is your son! What is happening?

- He's not my son, not anymore.

- Did you know he was going to do this?

Mm-mmm.

He thinks his father killed vivian

Over the lyritrol cover-up, I mean it's a bold move.

He goes public, he protects himself.

Yeah.

- All right, so we're trying to find a link between robert

And the dead russian.

So we need to watch him like a hawk right now.

Gabe and I will work this from the russian angle.

No, I got it.

- All right, and, please, just be careful.

- It's not that bad, julian.

I mean, sure, it's not good, but it's just one drug.

They'll be so many others.

- Do you even hear what they're saying,

And you're saying it's not that bad?

100 people died because of lyritrol and they're saying

My father covered it up.

I was just trying to--

- I need kaling and bainbridge and my lawyers to find out

What the hell is going on.

- I'll just-- I'll give you some space.

Hello? - Are you watching this?

Where the hell are you? It sounds like niagara falls.

- Julian bowers bathroom. - What? Why?

Mission accomplished. Get the hell out of there.

It's time to celebrate.

- Frank-- - did you hear those reporters?

They made it sound like robert killed vivian.

- as founder and ceo of the company--

- Holy crap. this is fantastic.

[tv chatter continues, water running]

Robert...Robert!

I know you're angry and I know you're hurt,

But you need to focus.

How did he get this alleged evidence?

What?

- Was he working with someone at bowers?

You need to find out who's on your side.

Good morning.

- Joanna, we are in damage control mode.

Get me julian, seabrook-- - he's been calling.

- And tom vanderfield from legal.

Oh, and I need you to go downstairs to hr.

There's a company-wide polygraph.

- I'm sorry, did you say polygraph?

- Look, we both saw edward's press conference.

That house is on fire right now.

Just wish I could have seen robert's reaction of being

Accused of murder on national tv.

- His reaction? He blew a solid gold gasket.

And now I have to take a polygraph.

Okay, look, you know the trick to that is, right?

You just have to regulate your heartbeat.

Do you know how to do that?

- Oh, I'm working on a plan right now.

- This is a disaster. Our stock is hemorrhaging.

Lyritrol is dead.

- I'm getting cash to the stock promoter.

His people will make sure the stock doesn't drop past 30.

How is that legal?

- Good question, because we have so many options.

I'm sure the board and wall street will happily

Forgive us for being asleep at the wheel.

- Us? This is your ass, robert.

- We tried to warn you about evidence.

- Don't you think that we should be trying

To figure out what's going on here?

If edward's claims about lyritrol are founded?

That ship sailed, buddy.

- Julian, you need to go and talk to the press.

And tell them what?

- That your brother has been under extreme pressure.

That his wife is leaving him.

That he attacked you at the stockholder meeting.

- I hit him first. - Who cares?

Go for the jugular, bring up kimberly yaeger.

Shut up, phil.

- Julian, smile and tell them what you know is true.

Lyritrol is a great drug,

Edward is wrong, and we're looking into the allegations.

What if he's not wrong?

I need to find out what really happened.

- Edward's live on msnbc tomorrow.

You need to get your family in line.

Julian needs to talk, and edward needs to shut up.

If you lose control, you won't be perceived

As fit to run this company.

- How you holding up? - Terrible.

I don't understand.

I personally oversaw the lyritrol trials.

The test results were everything that you hope for.

So what happened?

- Either edward is right, and someone--perhaps my father,

Covered up bad test results, or edward's finally snapped.

- Well, you better find out. - Listen to me.

I need you to know, I would never condone

The rollout of a drug unless every kink had been worked out.

If lyritrol is faulty,

It's not because I'm a profiteer,

It's because I'm a damn fool.

I believe you.

You do?

Yeah.

Okay. Thanks.

Um, you gonna take the polygraph?
