The Killing

Friday. It was- It was...

Friday before Rosie left for school.

She was in the garage getting her bike and-

Did she seem different in any way?

Did she say anything to you, Mr. Larsen, before she left?

I was on the phone taking an order. She-

She just waved.

And that was the last time you saw your daughter?

Anyone you can think of that might have done this?

Mrs. Larsen?

Ηer fingernails.

What-What was that?

Her fingernails.

They were broken.

Why?

Was your daughter involved in politics?

No, no. She's-She's quiet.

She'd... stay at home most weekends. Hangs out with her brothers and...

sometimes her friend Sterling.

What about this boyfriend, Jasper?

Lasted only a few weeks. Rosie broke it off.

I think in the summer.

He ever hurt your daughter, Mr. Larsen?

I should have got off the phone.

I should have said good-bye.

Well, these were found on the body.

Keys, jewelry.

Coroner's got no cause of death yet. You having a talk with the campaign?

Yeah, I'm about to call them.

No, you do it.

Political nature of this case, deputy com's gonna be watching.

So you have to dot your i's on this one.

I handed in my paperwork. I don't work here anymore.

Paperwork's sitting on my desk till I sign off.

- You found her, Sarah. - And I have a wedding to plan.

Yeah, it's in what? Τhree weeks.

Give me 24 hours, then you can go.

Sir, you know I used to work point...

on Undercover busts down at County, right?

Rick, hold on a second.

Oh, and, uh, car keys were found in the ignition.

Could be somebody inside the campaign. Keep me posted.

Did you get my message? Yeah. Uh, where's Jack?

With Regi on the boat. He's fine.

Okay, good. Oakes is making me stay.

You're kidding me. Just till tomorrow.

Rick, I'm so sorry. This is crazy. Okay.

Well, cancel the wedding. It's over.

Might as well tell you. I'm in love with another woman.

Strawberry blonde. Ηot.

She has the softest, smoothest, "rubberiest" skin.

And the best thing about her? She's here.

Oh, and she's naked.

Candy Cane's a lucky girl. Yeah.

Hey, get home to me soon.

I will. I love you. Bye.

I appreciate you keeping this just to family for now.

The first 48 hours are the most important.

When can we bring Rosie home?

Um, soon.

We'll have a unit over at your house later to go through your daughter's room.

Why'd you want to know if she was into politics?

We're looking at every angle.

You should get home. Get some rest.

I'm sorry for your loss, Mrs. Larsen, Mr. Larsen.

Will you find who did this?

We'll do our best.

Will you find who did this?

Yeah.

We took in close to 24K tonight.

The blue hairs of Seattle were sufficiently charmed.

You must be exhausted.

Nope.

Well, good, because I have a nice pinot waiting for us.

Hello. Yes, this is she.

I don't- I don't understand.

Yes. We'll meet you at the office.

Τhat was the police.

That missing girl from the high school-

Τhey found her body, Darren, in one of our campaign cars.

We'll need to know who had access to your vehicles.

Absolutely. Τhis is terrible.

I don't understand how our campaign can have anything to do with this.

Where were you this weekend?

Uh, Tacoma, Friday night,

then back here in the city, attending several campaign events.

I can get you a list. We were both with the councilman around the clock.

Was Rosie Larsen connected to the campaign in any way?

No. I've checked everything, including our volunteer lists.

So Friday, you were campaigning out of town, Councilman?

Uh, I was taking a much-needed break. I can provide the number of the inn.

The owner will confirm I was there.

And the owner was with you around the clock too, huh?

Why don't you start looking through those personnel records?

I'm sure it's a long list.

I put our staff files on a flash drive.

l'll have to send the records from the campaign office.

ls there anyone else who can vouch for you Friday night?

I can. I was with the councilman.

We'll need a statement from both of you.

- Not until we issue a press release. - I'd rather not go public now.

It's not up to you. We're in the middle of a campaign.

Whoever did this hid her well.

Our only advantage is he doesn't know we found her.

Ηow much time do you need?

Till midnight at least.

I'll be in touch.

Councilman.

Oh, screw that. There is no way we are sitting on this.

Darren, you're not seriously considering it, are you? What do you recommend I do?

Call a press conference immediately and express outrage at this tragedy.

You gotta go on the attack.

Adams has had his head so far up Columbia Domain Fund's ass...

that crime has skyrocketed 12%.

ln fact, if it wasn't for him, dead girl would probably be alive today.

Ηow do you do that with a straight face?

We're a month away from the election. This thing will sink us.

Not if we play it right.

Court the girl's family. Speak at her memorial.

And say what exactly?

Τhat you know what they're going through because you've been there yourself.

No.

We send out a press release by noon. Your private investigator, Penato?

Have him start vetting our people, and find out what the hell happened with that car.

Darren, he's right you know.

Try to look at this as an opportunity to tell the voters once and for all about Lily.

I am not using my wife.

What are we going to do about Yitanes?

She'll withdraw her endorsement tonight if we blindside her with this, and you need the unions.

Set up a meeting for noon. I'll tell her then.

A reporter from the Record called yesterday.

Ηe was tipped off about Yitanes. Someone sent an e-mail from the office.

Who?

He wouldn't say.

I want you to check everyone's accounts here at the campaign. Be discreet.

Yeah, I'll get Nathan on that right away.

How old was she? The girl?

Uh, I don't know.

We're gonna take the later flight, Jack. You can start school tomorrow.

No, I'll pick you up in a few hours.

Yeah, you can go on the water with Regi in the morning,

but don't forget to wear your life vest.

Uh, l-l really- I really appreciate the help.

You're welcome. Thanks a lot.

The campaign car was reported stolen Saturday morning by a couple of campaign workers.

Τhis is the police report. Who drove it last?

Some female volunteer last Wednesday.

It's been on the lot till it got jacked.

What were the keys doing in the ignition?

These dumb asses keep them there.

Says it makes it easier for their people to drive them off.

So where to next, boss?

Are you still mad about that, what I said to the Larsens?

I mean, I can handle 'em.

You know, the guy probably punched Rosie in the face before he grabbed her.

Τhat's what they do to kids. That's why the head wounds.

You want to tell that to the parents, go ahead.

You want me to get you something to eat?

No.

Jesus, how could this happen? How could she be missing all weekend?

I just don't get it.

Hey.

I didn't tell the boys nothin'.

But Tommy's so scared, you know? Asking questions.

I just don't know what to say to him, Stan.

I could pick 'em up from school.

They should be here with you, right? You want me to go get 'em?

We'll do it. We gotta keep things normal for them.

Yeah.

You didn't sleep, babe.

You should get some sleep.

Yeah.

What are you doing? That's supposed to be on the truck already.

Oh, come on. Come on, guys. You're killing me here.

Jonesy. Jonesy, you gotta be in Greenwood for that pick-up.

I told you like two hours ago, man. I know. I'm on it.

Stan. You hear anything about Rosie?

Let's fold this up and get out of here. Yeah, we're goin'.

Hey, we ain't paying you to stand around. Get outta here already. You too. Both of you.

Got it. I heard you.

Cops called. They said me and the guys gotta go to the station?

What's goin' on?

Stan?

Hey, what's your problem, Sterling, huh?

Telling Rosie's dad she was at my house? What the hell?

Τhen where is she? Get off-

Yeah, like I'd know.
