Hand of God

I'll, uh...

I'll start by saying

that all charges against Pernell Harris

regarding the murder of Shane Caldwell

have been dropped.

It has come to light that the...

That the case against Mr. Harris

was predicated on false evidence.

Our internal investigation indicates

that this was not a case of human error

or negligence,

but rather a result of criminal misconduct

within the police department.

A group of at least four San Vicente police officers

participated in dozens of serious crimes.

They were responsible for the attempt to frame Mr. Harris.

DNA evidence was planted on Shane Caldwell's body.

We have also confirmed that threats and intimidation

were used to coerce the statement

of an alleged eyewitness,

Mr. Michael Alcala.

Though the investigation is ongoing,

we are confident that we have identified

the ringleader, a Sergeant Scott Kessler.

Now, this morning, an arrest warrant was issued

was issued for Sergeant Kessler.

Scott Kessler! Hands up!

- Back away from the car! - Let me see your hands!

- Do it! Now! - Put 'em up!

- The fuck is this? - I said put your hands up!

- Scott! - Get in the house, Camila.

Get inside now!

- Gun! - Drop your weapon!

- No... - Put it down now!

He resisted and was shot by police at the scene.

- He did not survive. - No!

Let me just say the prosecution

and the SFPD are committed to justice.

Oh, my God! No!

As a sworn officer of the court,

I am determined to ferret out anyone

involved in this corruption.

And to Mr. Harris and Mrs. Harris,

on behalf of the city of San Vicente,

I extend our deepest apologies.

We will not be taking questions at this time.

Ma'am.

- I've been calling. - I've been busy.

- Does he know? - About what?

"About what?" Are you kidding me?

About the tape. Does he know?

- No, sir. - I want the recording back.

You'll have it.

I knew you'd find a way to pull it out.

- You always do. - Thank you, Bobo.

Yeah.

Couldn't have done it without you.

No comment. No comment. Thank you.

No comment.

Let's make this look good for the cameras, huh?

Mr. Harris! This way!

Kessler?

Had to be someone.

What are you doing here?

I wanted to say hi...

and that I'm sorry.

Why are you so hard headed, K.D.?

I don't have many friends, Tessie.

You think we're friends?

I want us to be.

I see the "for sale" sign's gone.

You sold the house already?

No. I'm moving in.

Oh, you liked it that much?

It's not that.

I can't sell it.

This house is all I have left.

Why? What happened?

Well, someone else decided to betray me.

But this someone happened to be managing all my money.

You should call Judge Harris.

How many times do I have to tell you no?

I'll figure it out.

He cares about you. Cares about this baby. He's the father.

Pernell doesn't care about people. He uses them.

- That is not true. - Is this really why you came here?

Are you here for him?

- Get out of this house. - No...

Right now.

It doesn't matter who sent me.

I'm saying things that you should think about

for yourself and the baby.

Things I've already thought about a thousand times.

Every version from every angle.

I don't want his money.

I want my baby to be happy.

You want to be my friend, K.D.?

You go and you talk to Pernell

and you convince him to leave me alone.

- Did you get my message? - No. I saw you called.

I figured you could tell me when I got here.

Right. Well, you have a visitor.

What's going on?

You know, I was waiting

in the parking lot for almost an hour

trying to talk myself out of this.

You were right about P.J.'s suicide note.

There's a message. I just can't figure out what it is.

I mean, maybe he was trying to tell me who killed him?

No, no, don't. Not here.

Oh, Crystal, I saw the, uh...

Oh, Jocelyn.

- How've you been? - Good.

Better.

Oh, what can I do for you Nathan?

Oh, well, I just came by to congratulate you and Pernell.

Oh, thank you.

Good to see you, Jocelyn.

Always a pleasure.

Congratulate you for what?

Let's go! Get it out!

- Right back there. - Thank you.

- Kessler's dead. - What?

They blamed him for everything.

Murdered him in front of his own family.

They will answer for their sins.

Well, you're damn right they will.

'Cause you and me, we're the answer.

These are the cops that helped Toby and Shane kill P.J.

I want everybody on that video dead.

Except for Chief Clay.

- I said everybody. - No, you can't.

You have a deal.

Fuck the deal.

Come here.

Kessler's wife is arranging his funeral.

All my so-called friends have toasted my freedom.

P.J.'s killers are walking around free.

If we go after Chief Clay,

he sends that confession out,

you go to jail.

You're right.

Worry about Toby later.

- But these guys. - Yeah. I'm with you.

We're the answer.

Oh, Keith?

What about Tessie?

I talked to her. She's still...

Maybe you should just leave it alone for a while.

Shit.

No, she'll come around.

She's too smart to think she can get custody.

Plus her being broke.

She'll come around.

How do you know she's broke?

The guy that manages her money owed me favor.

Keith, come on.

This isn't 'cause I wanna hurt Tessie.

This is about the son that God gave me.

Now, if you can't get somebody to trust you,

you gotta get 'em to need you.

You understand?

I guess so.

Good.

'Cause we got shit to do.

That motherfucker.

Well, if we know that Toby killed him,

then why don't we just turn him in?

Have you two ladies had time to look at the menu?

We're not eating, Manny.

Could we just get a bottle of Sequoia Grove Cambium 2007?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Toby knows we know.

But if we expose him, we put ourselves in danger.

Fuck.

No, it doesn't make this make any more sense than it did before.

I don't know that I know any word here

that could mean the word "cop."

What makes you think there is a message?

Because there's all these altered memories here.

P.J. makes references to things in our past,

but every time I get into a story,

he changes one detail, like right here.

The Dominican music coming from our neighbors.

It wasn't Dominican music. It was Dominican cigar smoke.

And the reason I know that is 'cause I used to tell him

his room smells like a "Soprano's" episode.

Is there some memory where he substitutes

one person for another?

No. No, just little...

What if it's not a person that he's leading you to?

Holy shit.

"Where I stole back the first kiss I took.

Where all the milestones started."

See, that part stood out to me,

because he didn't make the first move.

I did.

That's what he meant by "milestones."

Our first kiss was at the First Mile Rock.
