Cami. Cami.
Yeah. Cami.
Tough break.
Yeah, that's... that's hard.
And that's the game.
Eastern State takes it...
- Let's go. - Yeah.
- ...73/71. - Soraya. Soraya.
You are normally a 60% shooter.
You are down now to about 30%
on largely wide open threes.
Do you think you've been playing to your full capability
these past few games?
You probably wouldn't have asked me the question if I was.
Let's see him maintain 40-plus from three.
Right? While worrying about a stalker.
Coach, fans have been saying that you haven't been
utilizing Soraya correctly.
Has her sporadic playtime hurt her momentum?
My coaching decisions are always aligned with my top priority:
what's best for the team.
Isn't winning what's best for the team?
We're done here.
Thank you, Coach.
Thank you, Soraya.
Soraya King?
Detective Reagan. Detective Silver.
We're here to talk to you about the stalker situation.
Campus security notified us.
Guess they finally called real police
since they can't seem to get a handle on it.
Well, can you tell us what's going on?
Well, I've been trying to let it play out,
but now, it's affecting my games...
What is it?
He put that there.
During the game.
That means the stalker was just here.
Or could still be here.
You see anything?
Nothing.
Dammit.
Great. You're here.
You called 911?
I was just about to close up.
Group of kids were here "browsing."
They got rowdy, so I asked them to leave. That's when they
smashed and grabbed.
Spray paint cans. Oil paints.
They got away with about $500 worth of inventory.
Did you get a description?
They were Black. Maybe one was Mexican.
African-American, possibly Hispanic.
- Did you get any other details you'd like to share with us? - Four of 'em.
Probably about 16.
I got a picture as they ran out.
One of them said something about tagging a spot
near Lenox housing in Dudley Square.
We'll need a copy of that.
Did you get anything else for us to go off of?
Oh, you are so sweet,
but you know I like my coffee black.
That's why these are not for you.
We're about to interview a witness.
Hey, uh, I need to ask you a favor,
but it involves your mom.
Okay.
What favor?
Something happen between you and Mae?
You know, I would, I would rather not get into it now,
- if that's okay. - No, yeah. That's fine. Uh...
It involves Yancey Wims, your childhood friend.
What about him?
No, he-he's fine,
it's just, uh... You know, it-it would be better
if I explain the whole thing to you and your mom, together.
Okay. Uh...
I, uh, I got to go now,
but I will, um...
I'll set that up.
Hey. Hey, hey, hey.
Sure you don't want to talk?
Yeah.
I'm good.
Soraya's all ready for you.
Hey. What's going on?
Danny, I really don't want to take it in there.
Well, if something's bothering you,
you don't talk about it,
it could come out in there.
So what is happening?
What's up?
On my off day, I...
went to go see my biological father.
Wow.
Figured you would've got your nails done
or slept in.
- How'd that happen? - Mm. Ah, well, my mom
finally told me the truth, after all this time,
and I went to go see about it.
And that adage
of being careful what you wish for is
accurate.
How was he?
I don't even know. I didn't get to meet him.
I drove all the way up to Eastborough,
- and he wasn't there. - Huh.
But you know who was there?
His son-in-law who is married to my half sister.
Half sister you never even knew existed?
Of course not.
And I don't think she knows about me either.
Partner, I'm so sorry.
I know it has to be a lot to process for you.
Oh, yeah, because, you know, my entire life,
my mom's been teaching me about the importance of family,
but she's been keeping me from fully knowing mine.
Wh... What kind of sense does that make?
Let's get back to work.
I didn't love the hard "B" on "Black"
when the store clerk reported the robbery.
No, yeah, I got that,
but the guy at the art supply store
said the kids wanted to tag in Dudley Square,
so why are we in Nubian Square?
Government changed the name a few years ago
to better represent its neighborhood's
African-American population, instead of Thomas Dudley,
a former governor who owned slaves.
That's cool.
Yeah, I guess it's a lot cheaper than affordable housing.
Yeah.
Check it out.
What these kids need is someone to actually care about them.
Yeah, get that, on that. Yeah. And then...
Hey. You boys want to put the spray cans down?
Got a couple questions to ask you.
Been to any art supply stores recently?
Run! Run!
- Go, go, go, go. - I got it.
Hey, stop!
BPD! Stop!
Ah!
Come on, come on.
Up. Up, up, up, up. Against the wall.
Hands up.
- Why you running? - Why you chasing me?
What's your name?
- Kai. - Kai.
- Washington. - Those other ones got away.
I don't know what the hell they put in school lunches,
but these kids are fast.
Take your backpack off.
Can you open this for us, please?
Yeah?
Where'd you get all this stuff?
- My friend gave it to me. - Oh, your friend?
Same one who took off? Left you hanging?
What's his name?
- Where does he live? - What, police can't
figure that out for themselves?
You didn't steal this stuff from Rory's Art Supplies
- over on Tremont? - No, I'm not a thief.
Well, the clerk seems to think differently.
We're gonna have to take you in.
I... No, I swear, I didn't steal anything.
- Turn around. - Hey!
What was he doing, Officer? Blacking while Black?
Hands behind your back.
Y'all know you don't need to do that boy like that.
What'd he do? Look at you funny?
- Yeah, real tough. - Kai Washington...
- Gang up on a Black kid. - ...you're under arrest
- for suspicion of theft. - Oh, now he's being all civil.
You have the right to remain silent.
Black cops be the worst ones.
- Hey, let him go! - Anything you say...
- Oh, come on. What'd he do? - ...can and will be used
- against you in a court of law. - Let him go.
It started about six months ago.
Creepy letters and always a long-stemmed rose.
Had a look at the notes, and he does always quote a passage
from The Romance of the Rose.
It's a 13th-century French poem.
Every letter says that we're destined to be together.
That it's almost time for us to finally meet in person.
Do you or anyone know who it could be?
No.
But whoever he is, he's really starting to scare me.
Dad. Oh.
You okay, baby girl?
Uh, Damon, Detective Reagan.
My partner, Detective Silver.
We're honored to meet you.
- Sorry it's under these circumstances. - Yeah.
We're gonna do everything we can to find your daughter's stalker.
I thought that the campus security was supposed to get
the stalker. I guess things are getting worse?
Dad, I don't want you to worry.
Oh, I am worried.
