1
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:12,074
2
00:00:24,237 --> 00:00:26,804
What if we got married on the Cyclone?
3
00:00:26,839 --> 00:00:29,173
The roller coaster at Coney Island?
4
00:00:29,207 --> 00:00:31,275
Come on. How much fun would that be?
5
00:00:31,309 --> 00:00:33,711
And talk about an appropriate,
6
00:00:33,746 --> 00:00:35,747
if not slightly on-the-nose metaphor...
7
00:00:35,781 --> 00:00:37,882
a bride and groom together,
side-by-side,
8
00:00:37,917 --> 00:00:40,051
as they go through the ups and downs,
9
00:00:40,085 --> 00:00:41,986
the twists and turns,
and the loop-de-loops of life.
10
00:00:42,021 --> 00:00:42,987
Castle, I love you,
11
00:00:43,022 --> 00:00:44,755
but I will not marry you on a ride
12
00:00:44,789 --> 00:00:46,790
or up in space or on a slide.
13
00:00:46,824 --> 00:00:49,026
Bet Dr. Seuss got married somewhere fun.
14
00:00:49,061 --> 00:00:50,861
Yes, his wife's living room.
15
00:00:52,164 --> 00:00:54,365
How many people do you think can fit
16
00:00:54,399 --> 00:00:56,633
in one of those
roller-coaster cars, anyway?
17
00:00:56,668 --> 00:00:58,135
20? 30?
18
00:00:58,170 --> 00:01:00,304
You know, that's a good point.
19
00:01:00,338 --> 00:01:03,373
We should determine exactly whom
we are going to invite.
20
00:01:03,407 --> 00:01:05,241
Yeah, good idea.
21
00:01:05,276 --> 00:01:07,410
That way we can determine
exactly how big
22
00:01:07,445 --> 00:01:09,479
a roller-coaster car we need to build.
23
00:01:09,513 --> 00:01:11,314
Or how big of an actual venue we need.
24
00:01:11,348 --> 00:01:13,149
Either way, I'll go and get the paper.
25
00:01:13,184 --> 00:01:14,885
I'll get a pen.
26
00:01:14,919 --> 00:01:16,853
And I will get the phone.
27
00:01:18,021 --> 00:01:19,021
Beckett.
28
00:01:23,627 --> 00:01:25,128
You know, there's a good argument
29
00:01:25,162 --> 00:01:26,563
for keeping the list really small.
30
00:01:26,597 --> 00:01:27,663
Just immediate family.
31
00:01:27,698 --> 00:01:29,899
This argument doesn't have
something to do with
32
00:01:29,933 --> 00:01:31,634
a certain amusement park ride, does it?
33
00:01:31,668 --> 00:01:32,702
I'm being serious.
34
00:01:32,736 --> 00:01:34,604
Getting married is an intimate act,
35
00:01:34,638 --> 00:01:36,439
and our ceremony
should reflect that intimacy.
36
00:01:36,473 --> 00:01:38,674
And that way,
we could all fit into one car.
37
00:01:38,709 --> 00:01:40,576
Ryan, how do you feel
about roller coasters?
38
00:01:40,611 --> 00:01:41,844
Ooh, make me nauseous. Why?
39
00:01:41,878 --> 00:01:43,713
No reason. Who's our victim?
40
00:01:43,747 --> 00:01:46,315
Peter Cordero, 26.
41
00:01:46,349 --> 00:01:47,950
According to the super, he lives alone.
42
00:01:47,985 --> 00:01:49,885
He's a future's trader at JP Harding,
43
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:51,620
the Wall Street investment firm.
44
00:01:51,654 --> 00:01:52,721
And how was he killed?
45
00:01:52,755 --> 00:01:54,256
Uh, single GSW to the chest.
46
00:01:54,290 --> 00:01:56,425
Looks like his own future got traded.
47
00:01:56,459 --> 00:01:58,127
Yeah, not without a fight first.
48
00:01:58,161 --> 00:01:59,894
Who found the body?
49
00:01:59,929 --> 00:02:01,763
Well, that's an interesting question.
50
00:02:01,797 --> 00:02:05,967
At 10:03 P.M., a woman made a 911 call
51
00:02:06,002 --> 00:02:07,802
from a pay phone down the block,
52
00:02:07,837 --> 00:02:09,704
but she refused to leave her name.
53
00:02:09,739 --> 00:02:11,072
A pay phone down the block?
54
00:02:11,107 --> 00:02:13,074
But how would she know
he was dead unless...
55
00:02:13,109 --> 00:02:14,909
Unless she was in the apartment.
56
00:02:14,944 --> 00:02:17,612
Well, lividity places the time of death
57
00:02:17,647 --> 00:02:18,980
between 8:00 and 10:00,
58
00:02:19,015 --> 00:02:21,616
so if the 911 call came in at 10:03...
59
00:02:21,651 --> 00:02:23,551
She could be our killer.
60
00:02:23,585 --> 00:02:25,253
Esposito's checking
security-cam footage.
61
00:02:25,287 --> 00:02:26,608
Hopefully, we caught her on tape.
62
00:02:26,622 --> 00:02:29,023
Now, is it just me, or is it odd
63
00:02:29,057 --> 00:02:31,325
that our victim is wearing
a suit jacket, tie, pants,
64
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,927
shoes, but his shirt is unbuttoned?
65
00:02:33,962 --> 00:02:36,430
It's odd, all right. And look at this...
66
00:02:36,465 --> 00:02:41,135
his shirt was on and buttoned
when he was shot.
67
00:02:41,169 --> 00:02:43,303
So our killer unbuttoned
his shirt after he was dead.
68
00:02:43,337 --> 00:02:44,672
Yep.
69
00:02:44,706 --> 00:02:47,007
The killer was looking for something.
70
00:02:47,042 --> 00:02:50,177
A pricy necklace or...
oh, a bunch of cash
71
00:02:50,211 --> 00:02:52,146
taped to his chest
like "Wolf of Wall Street."
72
00:02:52,180 --> 00:02:53,781
There's something else.
73
00:02:53,815 --> 00:02:55,415
I didn't find any defensive wounds,
74
00:02:55,449 --> 00:02:57,217
so if there was a fight out there,
75
00:02:57,251 --> 00:02:58,572
I don't think this guy was in it.
76
00:02:59,687 --> 00:03:00,853
Yo, Beckett.
77
00:03:00,888 --> 00:03:02,622
There are no security cameras
in the lobby,
78
00:03:02,657 --> 00:03:05,258
but I found one in
a liquor store down the street.
79
00:03:05,293 --> 00:03:07,661
It got a shot of that pay phone
80
00:03:07,695 --> 00:03:10,297
right when the 911 call came in.
81
00:03:10,331 --> 00:03:11,631
Okay. Canvas the neighbors.
82
00:03:11,666 --> 00:03:13,365
See if anyone saw her in the building.
83
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:14,767
Did you talk to next of kin yet?
84
00:03:14,802 --> 00:03:16,435
Well, the guy didn't have
any immediate family,
85
00:03:16,469 --> 00:03:19,105
but he did list a cousin in Queens,
86
00:03:19,139 --> 00:03:21,307
a Maria Cordero,
as his in-case-of-emergency.
87
00:03:21,341 --> 00:03:22,675
All right, bring her in.
88
00:03:22,710 --> 00:03:25,178
Let's see if she recognizes
the woman in the photo.
89
00:03:25,212 --> 00:03:26,579
Castle and I will go
to his place of work
90
00:03:26,613 --> 00:03:27,646
and see what they know there.
91
00:03:27,681 --> 00:03:30,349
All right.
92
00:03:34,020 --> 00:03:38,724
No. No. I'm sorry. I don't know her.
93
00:03:38,758 --> 00:03:40,626
Maria, did your cousin say anything
94
00:03:40,660 --> 00:03:42,027
about having a girlfriend?
95
00:03:42,061 --> 00:03:44,463
No. He said he didn't have time.
Work was his life.
96
00:03:44,497 --> 00:03:46,064
Were the two of you close?
97
00:03:46,099 --> 00:03:48,900
Peter was like my brother.
98
00:03:49,936 --> 00:03:51,236
When he was 10, his parents died
99
00:03:51,270 --> 00:03:53,338
in the big earthquake in Venezuela.
100
00:03:53,372 --> 00:03:55,974
My parents adopted him
and brought him to the States.
101
00:03:56,008 --> 00:03:59,544
Did Peter say anything
about having any enemies?
102
00:03:59,578 --> 00:04:02,447
No. Peter was a sweet guy.
103
00:04:02,481 --> 00:04:04,716
He never forgot where he came from...
104
00:04:04,750 --> 00:04:07,051
not like those privileged,
silver-spoon types
105
00:04:07,085 --> 00:04:08,519
he worked with.
106
00:04:08,554 --> 00:04:09,721
He was a scholarship kid,
107
00:04:09,755 --> 00:04:12,823
so everything he got
was through hard work.
108
00:04:12,858 --> 00:04:14,325
When did you talk to him last?
109
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,427
A few days ago.
110
00:04:16,462 --> 00:04:17,828
And how did he seem?
111
00:04:20,065 --> 00:04:21,331
Stressed, actually.
112
00:04:21,366 --> 00:04:23,267
Did he say what about?
113
00:04:23,301 --> 00:04:25,269
No. I... I don't know.
114
00:04:25,303 --> 00:04:28,005
When I asked him, he said
something happened at work,
115
00:04:28,039 --> 00:04:30,307
but it wasn't anything
he couldn't handle.
116
00:04:33,278 --> 00:04:36,546
JP Harding Investment Bank.
117
00:04:36,581 --> 00:04:39,316
This place is either
the engine of capitalism
118
00:04:39,350 --> 00:04:42,051
or the poster child
of greed and corruption,
119
00:04:42,086 --> 00:04:44,254
depending on which paper you read.
120
00:04:44,289 --> 00:04:46,856
Maybe the invisible hand
of the market killed Peter.
121
00:04:46,891 --> 00:04:49,192
It would explain
the lack of defensive wounds.
122
00:04:49,226 --> 00:04:51,027
You know, prep-school buddy of mine
123
00:04:51,061 --> 00:04:52,762
came to work here out of college.
124
00:04:52,797 --> 00:04:55,431
He made a quarter of a billion
dollars before he was 30,
125
00:04:55,465 --> 00:04:57,066
retired, and bought an island.
126
00:04:57,101 --> 00:04:58,634
Wait. He owns his own island?
127
00:04:58,669 --> 00:05:01,671
We should definitely invite him
to the wedding.
128
00:05:01,705 --> 00:05:03,606
Excuse me. Hi, I'm detective Beckett.
129
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,809
We need to speak
with Peter Cordero's boss.
130
00:05:05,843 --> 00:05:07,110
Jamie Berman, I believe?
131
00:05:07,144 --> 00:05:08,505
Can I tell him what it's regarding?
132
00:05:08,512 --> 00:05:10,780
Killing...
133
00:05:10,814 --> 00:05:12,981
are you capable of it?
134
00:05:13,016 --> 00:05:17,152
Because if you are,
I will make you rich.
135
00:05:17,187 --> 00:05:21,691
Goldman just poached
Consolidated's pension account
136
00:05:21,725 --> 00:05:26,161
from us this morning,
so I am offering a bounty.
137
00:05:26,196 --> 00:05:27,429
Neal?
138
00:05:30,099 --> 00:05:32,968
A million dollars to the first
son of a bitch at this table
139
00:05:33,002 --> 00:05:34,903
to poach an account back from Goldman.
140
00:05:34,938 --> 00:05:38,740
It's open season, guys...
open-hunting season.
141
00:05:38,774 --> 00:05:41,943
I want you to make them bleed!
142
00:05:41,977 --> 00:05:42,857
Excuse me.
143
00:05:42,878 --> 00:05:45,046
All right, let's go!
144
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,314
Excuse me, Mr. Berman.
145
00:05:47,747 --> 00:05:49,627
Detective Beckett.
Could we have a word, please?
146
00:05:49,652 --> 00:05:52,954
I told you S.E.C. pricks
to talk to my lawyer.
147
00:05:52,988 --> 00:05:56,924
I'm not S.E.C. I'm NYPD... homicide.
148
00:05:56,959 --> 00:05:59,260
Homicide?
149
00:05:59,294 --> 00:06:02,696
I apologize for the theatrics,
detective,
150
00:06:02,731 --> 00:06:06,100
but in this world, it gets results.
151
00:06:06,134 --> 00:06:07,434
And here I thought the stories
152
00:06:07,469 --> 00:06:09,203
of Wall Street excess were exaggerated.
153
00:06:09,238 --> 00:06:11,638
Mr. Berman, I understand
that Peter Cordero
154
00:06:11,673 --> 00:06:13,040
reported directly to you.
155
00:06:13,075 --> 00:06:15,342
Yes, he was my best commodities' trader.
156
00:06:15,377 --> 00:06:17,344
And one of the nicest guys
you'll ever meet.
157
00:06:17,379 --> 00:06:19,446
In this part of the world, anyway.
158
00:06:19,481 --> 00:06:20,481
Do you have any leads?
159
00:06:20,515 --> 00:06:21,915
Uh, just one.
160
00:06:21,949 --> 00:06:25,051
Do you recognize this woman?
161
00:06:25,086 --> 00:06:27,788
No. I'm afraid I don't.
162
00:06:27,822 --> 00:06:30,824
Well, according to
Peter Cordero's family,
163
00:06:30,859 --> 00:06:32,420
he was having some trouble here at work.
164
00:06:32,426 --> 00:06:34,160
Do you have any idea
what that might have been?
165
00:06:34,195 --> 00:06:35,528
No idea.
166
00:06:35,562 --> 00:06:36,629
In fact, he was having
167
00:06:36,663 --> 00:06:38,143
one of the best months he's ever had.
168
00:06:38,165 --> 00:06:40,566
And what about his clients?
Any problems there?
169
00:06:40,601 --> 00:06:43,403
Well, Pete was a rising star.
His clients loved him...
170
00:06:43,437 --> 00:06:44,537
But...
171
00:06:44,571 --> 00:06:46,572
But what?
172
00:06:46,607 --> 00:06:50,877
Last week, I was taking
the stairs to the 65th floor...
173
00:06:50,911 --> 00:06:53,646
my version of exercise...
174
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:55,114
and I saw Peter in the stairwell
175
00:06:55,148 --> 00:06:56,982
with this guy
who looked like a gangbanger.
176
00:06:57,017 --> 00:07:01,454
All tatted up his neck,
big scar on his cheek.
177
00:07:01,488 --> 00:07:03,556
Not the kind of guy
you ever see down here.
178
00:07:03,590 --> 00:07:07,026
And he was handing Peter
a package about yea big.
179
00:07:07,060 --> 00:07:10,495
When Peter saw me,
he looked guilty as hell.
180
00:07:10,530 --> 00:07:12,764
So I just kept walking.
181
00:07:12,799 --> 00:07:14,800
And you didn't ask him about it?
182
00:07:14,834 --> 00:07:16,068
Yeah, I did later,
183
00:07:16,102 --> 00:07:19,538
but he said it was nothing,
so I just let it go.
184
00:07:19,572 --> 00:07:21,406
You saw a gangbanger in your stairwell,
185
00:07:21,441 --> 00:07:23,608
and you just let it go?
186
00:07:23,643 --> 00:07:25,911
This is a high-stress
environment, detective.
187
00:07:25,945 --> 00:07:28,212
We don't ask a lot of questions
188
00:07:28,247 --> 00:07:31,249
about what our people do to...
to get through the day.
189
00:07:31,283 --> 00:07:32,517
Okay.
190
00:07:32,552 --> 00:07:33,952
Do you think you can
describe him to a sketch artist?
191
00:07:33,986 --> 00:07:35,086
I think so.
192
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:36,455
Great.
193
00:07:36,489 --> 00:07:38,389
I need the names of all of
Peter's associates here at work.
194
00:07:38,424 --> 00:07:39,390
Of course.
195
00:07:39,425 --> 00:07:40,891
Lanie's got something for us.
196
00:07:42,261 --> 00:07:44,295
Still no indication
of defensive wounds,
197
00:07:44,330 --> 00:07:49,167
but I did find this when
I checked his nails for DNA.
198
00:07:51,070 --> 00:07:53,137
Numbers.
199
00:07:53,172 --> 00:07:54,605
"7, 2, 3, 5, 9, 8."
200
00:07:54,639 --> 00:07:57,741
He wrote it in pen
I'd say four or five days ago.
201
00:07:57,776 --> 00:08:00,478
But that's not why I called you.
202
00:08:00,512 --> 00:08:02,212
Look at this.
203
00:08:02,246 --> 00:08:05,716
On his chest, next to the "Y" incision.
204
00:08:07,786 --> 00:08:10,087
- Look at what?
- It's subtle...
205
00:08:10,121 --> 00:08:12,489
so subtle, I almost missed it.
206
00:08:12,523 --> 00:08:15,292
But I think it explains
why his shirt was ripped open.
207
00:08:16,594 --> 00:08:18,962
- You see this grainy material?
- Yeah.
208
00:08:18,997 --> 00:08:20,597
It's adhesive residue.
209
00:08:20,631 --> 00:08:22,165
In fact, there's a residue pattern
210
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:23,766
from his belly to his chest.
211
00:08:23,801 --> 00:08:24,834
Adhesive?
212
00:08:24,869 --> 00:08:25,935
Mm-hmm.
213
00:08:25,970 --> 00:08:27,236
Looking at the pattern,
214
00:08:27,270 --> 00:08:29,190
I'd say your Wall Street wolf
was wearing a wire.
215
00:08:30,340 --> 00:08:32,742
A wire?
216
00:08:32,776 --> 00:08:34,243
Yes, sir.
217
00:08:34,277 --> 00:08:35,378
We believe our killer removed it
218
00:08:35,412 --> 00:08:36,445
from the victim's body
after shooting him.
219
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,481
Do we know who
he was wearing a wire for?
220
00:08:38,516 --> 00:08:39,782
Well, we're checking
221
00:08:39,817 --> 00:08:41,751
with other branches
of law enforcement right now.
222
00:08:41,785 --> 00:08:43,752
What about this woman
who called in the murder?
223
00:08:43,786 --> 00:08:44,920
Have you been able to identify her?
224
00:08:44,954 --> 00:08:46,188
You know, no one in Cordero's life
225
00:08:46,223 --> 00:08:47,923
seems to know who she is,
226
00:08:47,957 --> 00:08:49,791
and we have no idea where to find her.
227
00:08:49,826 --> 00:08:52,395
I... think she just found us.
228
00:08:54,064 --> 00:08:55,531
Oh, Lord.
229
00:08:55,565 --> 00:08:58,501
I'd say your case
just got a lot more complicated.
230
00:08:58,535 --> 00:08:59,668
What is it, sir?
231
00:08:59,702 --> 00:09:02,103
They're from the U.S. Attorney's Office.
232
00:09:02,138 --> 00:09:03,138
You know them?
233
00:09:03,172 --> 00:09:04,506
Uh, not the woman from the photo,
234
00:09:04,541 --> 00:09:06,542
but the woman with her
is Elizabeth Weston,
235
00:09:06,576 --> 00:09:09,945
the U.S. Attorney
for the Southern District.
236
00:09:09,979 --> 00:09:13,114
She also happens to be my sister.

239
00:09:29,981 --> 00:09:32,970
Victoria. Been a while.
240
00:09:32,986 --> 00:09:34,620
Yes, it has.
241
00:09:37,624 --> 00:09:38,924
And who is this?
242
00:09:38,958 --> 00:09:41,327
I'm Stefanie Goldmark,
Assistant U.S. Attorney.
243
00:09:41,361 --> 00:09:43,262
We're here about the Cordero murder.
244
00:09:44,590 --> 00:09:45,923
Oh, well, that's funny,
245
00:09:45,958 --> 00:09:47,257
because we have a few questions
about that ourselves.
246
00:09:47,292 --> 00:09:49,159
Starting, Ms. Goldmark,
247
00:09:49,194 --> 00:09:50,561
with why you didn't identify yourself
248
00:09:50,596 --> 00:09:52,997
when you made that 911 call
from the pay phone.
249
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,334
Because I instructed her not to.
250
00:09:58,704 --> 00:10:01,305
I couldn't afford to
compromise our investigation.
251
00:10:01,339 --> 00:10:02,406
What investigation?
252
00:10:05,143 --> 00:10:07,177
Is there somewhere private we can talk?
253
00:10:09,247 --> 00:10:12,816
All right, Elizabeth,
what's this all about?
254
00:10:12,850 --> 00:10:15,685
Your victim was a confidential
informant for my office
255
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,522
in an ongoing criminal
investigation of JP Harding.
256
00:10:18,556 --> 00:10:21,958
Which is why Cordero was wearing a wire.
257
00:10:21,993 --> 00:10:23,693
Yes, and since JP Harding
is on the 65th floor,
258
00:10:23,728 --> 00:10:25,194
we couldn't monitor it live.
259
00:10:25,229 --> 00:10:28,297
Cordero put it on every morning
and turned it in every night,
260
00:10:28,332 --> 00:10:30,634
along with the attached
recording device.
261
00:10:30,668 --> 00:10:32,035
Only last night, he didn't.
262
00:10:32,069 --> 00:10:34,370
I went to his apartment
to see what happened.
263
00:10:34,404 --> 00:10:38,141
That's when I found him,
and the wire was gone.
264
00:10:38,175 --> 00:10:39,575
We think that there was something key
265
00:10:39,610 --> 00:10:41,310
to our investigation on that wire
and that's why he was killed.
266
00:10:41,345 --> 00:10:42,678
So where are you on leads?
267
00:10:46,082 --> 00:10:47,283
Well, uh, ballistics
is running the slug,
268
00:10:47,317 --> 00:10:49,385
but right now the only lead
is this sketch,
269
00:10:49,419 --> 00:10:52,255
provided by Mr. Cordero's boss,
Jamie Berman.
270
00:10:52,289 --> 00:10:54,957
It's of a man he saw with our victim.
271
00:10:54,991 --> 00:10:56,625
Well, I wouldn't put
much credence in that sketch.
272
00:10:56,660 --> 00:10:58,160
Why? Why is that?
273
00:10:58,194 --> 00:11:01,964
Because Berman is the target
of our investigation.
274
00:11:01,998 --> 00:11:03,799
Jamie Berman, head of JP Harding?
275
00:11:03,833 --> 00:11:05,801
We've been trying to mount
a case against him for years...
276
00:11:05,835 --> 00:11:07,069
insider trading, securities fraud.
277
00:11:07,103 --> 00:11:08,570
We know he's doing it.
278
00:11:08,604 --> 00:11:10,172
We just haven't been able to get proof.
279
00:11:10,206 --> 00:11:12,307
Not without getting inside.
280
00:11:12,341 --> 00:11:13,708
Berman's too careful.
281
00:11:13,742 --> 00:11:15,710
Then, last month, we caught a break.
282
00:11:15,744 --> 00:11:17,512
Peter Cordero was found
with a baggie of cocaine
283
00:11:17,547 --> 00:11:18,813
during a stop-and-frisk.
284
00:11:18,847 --> 00:11:21,849
With his priors for possession
when he was a teen,
285
00:11:21,884 --> 00:11:23,017
he was facing 5 to 10.
286
00:11:23,052 --> 00:11:24,986
You got Cordero to play ball.
287
00:11:25,020 --> 00:11:26,921
He jumped at an immunity deal.
288
00:11:26,955 --> 00:11:28,890
He'd already gotten valuable information
289
00:11:28,924 --> 00:11:29,991
on his wire recordings.
290
00:11:30,025 --> 00:11:32,359
But yesterday, he was scheduled
291
00:11:32,394 --> 00:11:33,634
to meet with Berman one-on-one.
292
00:11:33,662 --> 00:11:35,296
He was gonna push him to open up
about some of his deals.
293
00:11:35,330 --> 00:11:37,131
Cordero may have pushed too hard.
294
00:11:37,166 --> 00:11:41,135
We think Berman made
Cordero in that meeting.
295
00:11:41,170 --> 00:11:43,804
So you think Jamie Berman's
somehow responsible
296
00:11:43,838 --> 00:11:44,805
for Cordero's death?
297
00:11:44,839 --> 00:11:46,006
Well, if Berman knew
298
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,275
he had incriminated himself on tape...
299
00:11:48,310 --> 00:11:50,977
He'd go to any lengths to get it back.
300
00:11:51,012 --> 00:11:53,714
Victoria, this investigation is ongoing,
301
00:11:53,748 --> 00:11:56,584
and exposing it to Mr. Berman
or anyone at JP Harding
302
00:11:56,618 --> 00:11:58,485
would break federal statutes.
303
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,486
But I thought that this was something
304
00:12:00,521 --> 00:12:02,789
that you and your team needed to know.
305
00:12:02,824 --> 00:12:04,024
I'd certainly say so.
306
00:12:04,058 --> 00:12:06,793
So I trust that you will keep
my office in the loop
307
00:12:06,828 --> 00:12:09,162
if there are any...
significant developments.
308
00:12:09,197 --> 00:12:10,897
Is that clear?
309
00:12:10,932 --> 00:12:12,298
Of course.
310
00:12:20,307 --> 00:12:23,008
Sir, I didn't...
I didn't know you had a sister.
311
00:12:23,043 --> 00:12:25,478
Oh, well, now you do.
312
00:12:29,717 --> 00:12:33,619
U.S. Attorney for the Southern District?
313
00:12:33,653 --> 00:12:35,821
That's a really big deal.
314
00:12:35,856 --> 00:12:37,757
Why hasn't Gates
ever mentioned her before?
315
00:12:37,791 --> 00:12:40,092
I don't know, but there was
definitely a subtle chill
316
00:12:40,127 --> 00:12:41,293
between the two of them.
317
00:12:41,327 --> 00:12:42,694
"A subtle chill"?
318
00:12:42,729 --> 00:12:45,097
More like a polar vortex.
319
00:12:45,132 --> 00:12:48,134
I'm guessing something happened
between them in the past...
320
00:12:48,168 --> 00:12:49,534
something deeply personal
321
00:12:49,569 --> 00:12:52,371
that Gates does not want us
to know about.
322
00:12:52,405 --> 00:12:54,139
I'll give you a dollar if you ask her.
323
00:12:54,173 --> 00:12:56,141
- No way.
- Come on. Aren't you curious?
324
00:12:56,175 --> 00:12:57,842
Yeah, but I like my job too much.
325
00:12:57,877 --> 00:12:59,478
Hey, so, uh, there may be something
326
00:12:59,512 --> 00:13:00,912
to the U.S. Attorney's theory.
327
00:13:00,946 --> 00:13:02,381
I checked Cordero's calendar.
328
00:13:02,415 --> 00:13:03,749
He was scheduled to meet with Berman
329
00:13:03,783 --> 00:13:05,083
at 5:00 P.M. yesterday.
330
00:13:05,117 --> 00:13:06,684
And whatever they talked about,
it got heated.
331
00:13:06,718 --> 00:13:07,786
How do you know that?
332
00:13:07,820 --> 00:13:09,453
According to building security,
333
00:13:09,488 --> 00:13:11,622
the two of them left shortly after
334
00:13:11,657 --> 00:13:13,892
and seemed to be
in the middle of a fight.
335
00:13:19,265 --> 00:13:22,333
Yeah, Peter and I had words yesterday.
336
00:13:22,367 --> 00:13:23,334
So what?
337
00:13:23,368 --> 00:13:25,068
So, you didn't tell us about that
338
00:13:25,103 --> 00:13:27,070
- when we talked this morning.
- 'Cause it wasn't relevant.
339
00:13:27,105 --> 00:13:28,238
How is it not relevant?
340
00:13:28,273 --> 00:13:29,674
The video shows you leaving together.
341
00:13:29,708 --> 00:13:30,874
Two hours later, he's dead.
342
00:13:30,909 --> 00:13:33,344
It's not relevant
because I didn't kill him.
343
00:13:33,378 --> 00:13:37,748
Honestly, detective,
what would be my motive?
344
00:13:37,783 --> 00:13:39,917
What exactly were the two of you
arguing about?
345
00:13:39,951 --> 00:13:41,285
A business deal.
346
00:13:42,183 --> 00:13:44,063
You looked pretty worked up
for a business deal.
347
00:13:44,088 --> 00:13:46,123
There was a lot riding on it.
348
00:13:46,157 --> 00:13:47,624
What was the deal?
349
00:13:47,658 --> 00:13:50,093
Client confidentiality, detective.
350
00:13:50,128 --> 00:13:51,628
I'm not at liberty to discuss it.
351
00:13:51,662 --> 00:13:54,631
You had a meeting
with Peter before that.
352
00:13:54,665 --> 00:13:56,098
What were you speaking about then?
353
00:13:56,133 --> 00:13:57,099
Other financial matters.
354
00:13:57,134 --> 00:13:58,468
What kind of financial matters?
355
00:13:58,502 --> 00:14:01,504
Sensitive ones, any discussion of which,
356
00:14:01,539 --> 00:14:02,972
even with law enforcement,
357
00:14:03,006 --> 00:14:05,074
would be considered insider trading.
358
00:14:05,108 --> 00:14:06,175
So unless you have a subpoena...
359
00:14:06,210 --> 00:14:07,610
Who else was at the meeting?
360
00:14:07,645 --> 00:14:09,446
Just the two of us.
361
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:10,980
And what did you do
after you left the lobby?
362
00:14:11,014 --> 00:14:13,916
Oh, we walked up Lafayette
and parted ways around Spring.
363
00:14:13,951 --> 00:14:15,117
What time was that?
364
00:14:15,152 --> 00:14:16,285
Around 6:15.
365
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:17,653
Where were you between 8:00 and 10:00?
366
00:14:17,687 --> 00:14:19,388
At my usual table at Le Cirque.
367
00:14:19,422 --> 00:14:21,190
Feel free to check.
368
00:14:21,225 --> 00:14:22,825
It's time.
369
00:14:22,860 --> 00:14:24,994
Now, if you'll excuse me,
370
00:14:25,028 --> 00:14:27,029
I have a conference call with the Fed.
371
00:14:27,064 --> 00:14:31,567
Oh, and if you want to talk
to me again, detective,
372
00:14:31,601 --> 00:14:34,269
call my lawyer.
373
00:14:39,208 --> 00:14:40,576
Le Cirque confirms that Berman was there
374
00:14:40,610 --> 00:14:43,178
from 8:00 P.M. till 10:25.
375
00:14:43,212 --> 00:14:44,545
Couldn't have been him.
376
00:14:44,580 --> 00:14:46,547
'Cause a guy like Berman
isn't gonna get his hands dirty.
377
00:14:46,582 --> 00:14:47,715
He's gonna hire someone.
378
00:14:47,750 --> 00:14:49,918
No, your sister's right.
Berman is behind this.
379
00:14:49,952 --> 00:14:51,452
And speaking of your sister...
380
00:14:51,487 --> 00:14:52,553
Let's not.
381
00:14:52,588 --> 00:14:55,690
If Berman is behind this,
382
00:14:55,724 --> 00:14:57,658
he will do everything he can
to protect himself.
383
00:14:57,693 --> 00:14:58,860
Knowing that the feds are watching him,
384
00:14:58,895 --> 00:15:00,728
he would be careful to cover his tracks.
385
00:15:00,763 --> 00:15:02,797
It's gonna be next to impossible
386
00:15:02,831 --> 00:15:04,331
to trace this back to him.
387
00:15:04,366 --> 00:15:05,900
So, all we're really sure of
388
00:15:05,934 --> 00:15:07,502
is that the sketch he gave us
389
00:15:07,536 --> 00:15:08,903
is a load of fictitious crap
390
00:15:08,937 --> 00:15:09,970
meant to send us in the wrong direction.
391
00:15:10,005 --> 00:15:11,972
It's not as fictitious as you think.
392
00:15:12,007 --> 00:15:13,040
I just got the ballistics back
393
00:15:13,074 --> 00:15:14,395
on the bullet that killed Cordero.
394
00:15:14,410 --> 00:15:16,744
Striations match a slug that was pulled
395
00:15:16,779 --> 00:15:17,912
from a robbery shooting at a bodega
396
00:15:17,946 --> 00:15:19,613
in the Bronx three months ago.
397
00:15:19,647 --> 00:15:20,881
The detectives couldn't make a case,
398
00:15:20,916 --> 00:15:24,551
but their three best suspects
were gang members,
399
00:15:24,585 --> 00:15:25,886
including this guy.
400
00:15:25,921 --> 00:15:27,554
Same guy. Same gun.
401
00:15:27,588 --> 00:15:28,923
Hector Nunez?
402
00:15:28,957 --> 00:15:30,257
Yeah, runs the South Bronx territory
403
00:15:30,292 --> 00:15:31,525
of Los Caballeros gang.
404
00:15:31,559 --> 00:15:34,928
Priors include assault,
attempted manslaughter,
405
00:15:34,962 --> 00:15:36,830
and conspiracy to distribute cocaine.
406
00:15:38,966 --> 00:15:41,034
No, you're wrong.
407
00:15:41,068 --> 00:15:42,302
Peter had nothing to do with cocaine.
408
00:15:42,336 --> 00:15:43,670
He hated drugs.
409
00:15:43,704 --> 00:15:46,005
Do you know he was arrested
last month for possession?
410
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:47,574
That's impossible. I know Peter.
411
00:15:47,608 --> 00:15:48,942
He'd never use that stuff.
412
00:15:48,976 --> 00:15:50,276
Are you sure, Maria?
413
00:15:50,311 --> 00:15:52,245
Because he was seen receiving
414
00:15:52,279 --> 00:15:55,614
a package last week from this guy.
415
00:15:55,649 --> 00:15:57,250
No.
416
00:15:57,284 --> 00:15:58,384
No.
417
00:15:58,419 --> 00:15:59,518
It... it can't be.
418
00:15:59,553 --> 00:16:00,686
Do you recognize him?
419
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,355
Hector Nunez.
420
00:16:02,389 --> 00:16:04,057
He was Peter's best friend growing up.
421
00:16:04,091 --> 00:16:05,758
But then he got mixed up in a gang,
422
00:16:05,792 --> 00:16:07,460
and he tried to drag Peter in, too.
423
00:16:07,494 --> 00:16:11,196
Afterwards, Hector changed.
He became dangerous.
424
00:16:11,230 --> 00:16:13,866
Peter cut ties with him
over a decade ago.
425
00:16:15,401 --> 00:16:17,801
Can you think of any reason why
he'd be back in Peter's life?
426
00:16:17,804 --> 00:16:19,171
Hector was a devil.
427
00:16:19,205 --> 00:16:21,574
Peter would have never gotten
mixed up with him again...
428
00:16:23,176 --> 00:16:25,944
...unless he didn't have a choice.
429
00:16:39,306 --> 00:16:40,706
This is a long way from Wall Street.
430
00:16:40,740 --> 00:16:41,861
This doesn't make any sense.
431
00:16:41,875 --> 00:16:44,477
If Peter was into drugs,
432
00:16:44,511 --> 00:16:46,645
he had enough money
to get them from downtown.
433
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,414
Why would he risk getting them
434
00:16:48,449 --> 00:16:49,949
from someone that he knew was dangerous?
435
00:16:49,983 --> 00:16:52,084
There it is... El Baile Club.
436
00:16:52,118 --> 00:16:55,353
Yeah, unofficial headquarters
of Los Caballeros.
437
00:16:55,388 --> 00:16:56,755
Stick close.
438
00:16:56,790 --> 00:16:58,591
If Hector's as dangerous as advertised,
439
00:16:58,625 --> 00:17:00,158
things might get a little hairy.
440
00:17:00,193 --> 00:17:02,828
"Hairy's" my middle name.
441
00:17:02,862 --> 00:17:04,730
That sounded a lot better in my head.
442
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:16,374
Are you sure this is the right place?
443
00:17:16,409 --> 00:17:18,276
Those guys don't look very dangerous.
444
00:17:19,579 --> 00:17:22,480
What about those guys?
445
00:17:22,514 --> 00:17:25,016
Ah, you mean the heavily-armed ones.
446
00:17:28,020 --> 00:17:29,453
We're looking for Hector Nunez.
447
00:17:32,157 --> 00:17:33,257
Beckett.
448
00:17:41,366 --> 00:17:43,467
Hector Nunez?
449
00:17:44,769 --> 00:17:46,670
Detective Beckett, NYPD.
450
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:51,342
Detective, you shouldn't be here.
451
00:17:51,376 --> 00:17:52,976
You could get hurt.
452
00:17:53,011 --> 00:17:55,311
It's a dangerous neighborhood.
453
00:17:55,346 --> 00:17:57,014
Yeah, well, maybe I should take you
454
00:17:57,048 --> 00:17:58,148
down to my neighborhood.
455
00:17:58,182 --> 00:17:59,750
Let me save you some time.
456
00:17:59,784 --> 00:18:01,818
Whatever it is, I didn't do it.
457
00:18:03,220 --> 00:18:06,623
And I suppose you've never heard
of a Peter Cordero, either.
458
00:18:06,658 --> 00:18:07,891
What about Peter?
459
00:18:09,027 --> 00:18:10,393
He's dead.
460
00:18:17,868 --> 00:18:19,902
Who did this?
461
00:18:19,936 --> 00:18:21,337
Well, we were thinking you...
462
00:18:22,540 --> 00:18:25,941
...might... be able to... tell us.
463
00:18:25,976 --> 00:18:28,711
I'd never hurt Peter.
464
00:18:28,745 --> 00:18:31,346
He was my best friend.
465
00:18:31,381 --> 00:18:33,348
When we were kids
and the gang wanted to take him,
466
00:18:33,383 --> 00:18:34,483
I wouldn't let them.
467
00:18:34,517 --> 00:18:36,618
I knew he could do better.
468
00:18:36,653 --> 00:18:40,289
So how did he end up
shot and killed with your gun?
469
00:18:40,323 --> 00:18:42,024
Something was going on with him.
470
00:18:42,059 --> 00:18:44,326
He called me last week...
first time in years.
471
00:18:44,360 --> 00:18:46,595
Said he was into some deal
that was gonna make him rich,
472
00:18:46,629 --> 00:18:48,463
but it was dangerous.
473
00:18:48,498 --> 00:18:49,565
In case something went wrong,
474
00:18:49,599 --> 00:18:50,720
he needed to protect himself.
475
00:18:50,733 --> 00:18:53,168
He said he need a weapon.
476
00:18:53,203 --> 00:18:54,736
You're saying you gave him that gun?
477
00:18:54,770 --> 00:18:56,371
Well, he said
he couldn't buy one himself
478
00:18:56,372 --> 00:18:58,707
'cause he was being watched
all the time.
479
00:18:58,741 --> 00:19:01,221
Was that what was in the package
you gave him in the stairwell?
480
00:19:01,944 --> 00:19:03,277
Yeah.
481
00:19:03,312 --> 00:19:05,980
That deal that he was into...
was it drugs?
482
00:19:06,015 --> 00:19:08,583
Not drugs, money.
483
00:19:08,617 --> 00:19:10,752
Something to do with bank accounts.
484
00:19:10,786 --> 00:19:12,420
"Bank accounts"?
485
00:19:12,454 --> 00:19:14,923
Last Thursday night, he came to me,
486
00:19:14,957 --> 00:19:17,558
said he needed one last favor.
487
00:19:17,593 --> 00:19:18,626
He wanted me to take an envelope
488
00:19:18,660 --> 00:19:21,128
to a manager at some bank in Midtown...
489
00:19:21,162 --> 00:19:23,097
Suisse Federal or something.
490
00:19:23,131 --> 00:19:24,665
Why couldn't he
just do it himself?
491
00:19:24,700 --> 00:19:26,267
Why would he need you?
492
00:19:26,301 --> 00:19:28,102
Said he couldn't afford
to be seen at the bank...
493
00:19:28,136 --> 00:19:29,103
was too risky.
494
00:19:29,137 --> 00:19:30,671
What was in the envelope?
495
00:19:30,706 --> 00:19:33,307
He said something
about transfer instructions.
496
00:19:33,342 --> 00:19:36,243
It was sealed, but there was
a bank account number
497
00:19:36,277 --> 00:19:37,277
written on the outside.
498
00:19:37,311 --> 00:19:38,746
Do you remember the number?
499
00:19:38,780 --> 00:19:41,514
Wrote it down
in case something went wrong.
500
00:19:41,549 --> 00:19:44,218
I guess it did.
501
00:19:47,599 --> 00:19:49,599
Not the same six-digit number
that was on his hand.
502
00:19:49,624 --> 00:19:52,525
After I took the envelope to the bank,
503
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:54,694
I called Peter at work
to confirm it was done.
504
00:19:54,729 --> 00:19:57,330
That's the last time we talked.
505
00:20:00,134 --> 00:20:04,103
Hector's alibi checks out.
506
00:20:04,138 --> 00:20:06,005
He was at Lady of Mercy nursing home
507
00:20:06,039 --> 00:20:08,274
visiting his mom when Peter was killed.
508
00:20:08,308 --> 00:20:10,609
Mysterious financial transactions,
509
00:20:10,644 --> 00:20:12,611
a deal so dangerous he needed a gun...
510
00:20:12,646 --> 00:20:14,113
seems to me there's a lot more
511
00:20:14,148 --> 00:20:15,948
to your sister's star witness
than she knew.
512
00:20:15,983 --> 00:20:19,318
"Than she knew" or than she
chose to tell us about?
513
00:20:19,867 --> 00:20:21,001
Sir?
514
00:20:22,890 --> 00:20:24,723
Yo. Talked to the manager
at Suisse Federal.
515
00:20:24,758 --> 00:20:27,125
He confirmed that a bank account
with those numbers exists,
516
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,861
but he refused to give out
any information on it.
517
00:20:29,896 --> 00:20:31,863
Did he at least acknowledge
it was Peter Cordero's account?
518
00:20:31,898 --> 00:20:35,033
He couldn't,
because he didn't know himself.
519
00:20:35,067 --> 00:20:36,535
It's a numbered account
set up for privacy,
520
00:20:36,569 --> 00:20:38,170
so the only way that anyone can
access it is with a password.
521
00:20:38,204 --> 00:20:40,738
So there's no way to know
what Cordero was doing.
522
00:20:40,773 --> 00:20:41,472
No.
523
00:20:41,507 --> 00:20:43,008
Unless...
524
00:20:45,111 --> 00:20:47,478
Six digits?
525
00:20:47,513 --> 00:20:49,647
Seems kind of password-y to me.
526
00:20:53,085 --> 00:20:54,019
Okay, read it to me.
527
00:20:54,053 --> 00:20:56,987
7, 2, 3, 5, 9, 8.
528
00:20:57,022 --> 00:20:58,556
Come on.
529
00:21:00,693 --> 00:21:01,559
We're in.
530
00:21:01,593 --> 00:21:03,328
Castle, you've done it again.
531
00:21:04,697 --> 00:21:06,161
What's it say?
532
00:21:08,133 --> 00:21:09,767
The balance is zero dollars.
533
00:21:09,802 --> 00:21:12,637
Zero dollars? That doesn't seem
very dangerous.
534
00:21:12,671 --> 00:21:14,171
Feels like the end of a treasure hunt
535
00:21:14,206 --> 00:21:16,367
where you open up the chest
and it's just full of sand.
536
00:21:16,374 --> 00:21:18,375
Wait. Go to the day Mr. Nunez claims
537
00:21:18,409 --> 00:21:20,311
he did the transfer, March 21st.
538
00:21:21,446 --> 00:21:25,249
Oh, my God. $25 million.
539
00:21:25,283 --> 00:21:27,718
Whoa. That's some expensive sand.
540
00:21:27,752 --> 00:21:29,653
Looks like it came into the account
541
00:21:29,687 --> 00:21:31,688
the day before at 8:34 in the morning,
542
00:21:31,723 --> 00:21:33,689
and then Hector transferred it out.
543
00:21:33,724 --> 00:21:37,693
A secret $25 million transfer
that got him killed.
544
00:21:39,230 --> 00:21:41,430
What the hell was Cordero into?
545
00:21:48,743 --> 00:21:51,305
- Right.
- Any luck?
546
00:21:51,337 --> 00:21:53,926
No. I just talked to
the head of Suisse Federal Bank.
547
00:21:53,957 --> 00:21:55,224
Given international banking regulations,
548
00:21:55,258 --> 00:21:56,526
there's no way to tell
549
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,193
where that money came from
or were it went.
550
00:21:58,228 --> 00:21:59,862
Of if the money's even Cordero's.
551
00:21:59,897 --> 00:22:01,497
He could have been moving it
for someone else.
552
00:22:01,532 --> 00:22:03,799
Sir, if this transaction
was somehow responsible
553
00:22:03,833 --> 00:22:05,473
for Cordero's death
and we can't track it,
554
00:22:05,501 --> 00:22:09,171
then we may never be able
to find his killer.
555
00:22:09,205 --> 00:22:12,641
There may be another way.
556
00:22:15,111 --> 00:22:16,078
$25 million?
557
00:22:16,112 --> 00:22:17,346
That's right.
558
00:22:17,380 --> 00:22:19,080
And your informant went
to a great deal of trouble
559
00:22:19,114 --> 00:22:20,181
to keep it secret.
560
00:22:20,215 --> 00:22:22,517
And you have no idea
where the money came from?
561
00:22:22,552 --> 00:22:26,087
No, but odds are
it's what got him killed.
562
00:22:26,121 --> 00:22:28,790
Elizabeth, if you know
anything about this...
563
00:22:28,825 --> 00:22:31,392
Of course I don't know
anything about this.
564
00:22:32,962 --> 00:22:34,529
You don't believe me.
565
00:22:34,564 --> 00:22:36,297
Do you blame me?
566
00:22:36,332 --> 00:22:37,531
I didn't know.
567
00:22:37,566 --> 00:22:39,567
And given the lengths he went
to hide the transaction,
568
00:22:39,601 --> 00:22:40,962
he clearly didn't want me to know.
569
00:22:40,970 --> 00:22:42,437
Okay, fine.
570
00:22:42,471 --> 00:22:43,604
Then I'm gonna need access
571
00:22:43,638 --> 00:22:45,273
to Peter Cordero's wire recordings.
572
00:22:45,307 --> 00:22:46,474
For what?
573
00:22:46,508 --> 00:22:47,741
Because there may be
something on those tapes
574
00:22:47,776 --> 00:22:49,444
that's relevant to his murder.
575
00:22:49,478 --> 00:22:51,212
We went through them. If there was
anything on there, we would have heard it.
576
00:22:51,246 --> 00:22:53,146
Not if you weren't listening for it.
577
00:22:55,350 --> 00:22:57,551
I'm sorry, Victoria,
but those wire recordings
578
00:22:57,586 --> 00:23:00,120
are a privileged part
of a confidential investigation.
579
00:23:00,154 --> 00:23:01,622
I can't give you access.
580
00:23:01,656 --> 00:23:02,857
"Can't" or "won't"?
581
00:23:02,891 --> 00:23:05,593
Do you think I'm blind?
582
00:23:05,627 --> 00:23:07,962
Bringing down someone as big as Berman,
583
00:23:07,996 --> 00:23:09,329
you'd be able to write your own ticket.
584
00:23:09,364 --> 00:23:11,431
The Mayor's Office, Attorney General...
585
00:23:11,466 --> 00:23:13,467
everything you always dreamed of.
586
00:23:13,501 --> 00:23:16,303
But you need Cordero's testimony,
587
00:23:16,337 --> 00:23:18,805
and if he was involved in anything dirty
588
00:23:18,839 --> 00:23:20,207
while acting as a witness,
589
00:23:20,241 --> 00:23:21,875
it'd jeopardize your whole case.
590
00:23:21,909 --> 00:23:23,377
That's why you won't
give us those tapes...
591
00:23:23,411 --> 00:23:25,545
because you're afraid
of what we might find.
592
00:23:25,579 --> 00:23:28,114
Taking down a shark like Berman
would send a signal
593
00:23:28,148 --> 00:23:30,984
to every fraudulent actor
in the financial market.
594
00:23:31,018 --> 00:23:33,219
I have to think about the greater good.
595
00:23:33,253 --> 00:23:34,574
Oh, is that what you tell yourself
596
00:23:34,588 --> 00:23:35,688
so you can sleep at night?
597
00:23:39,393 --> 00:23:41,160
You could never play the game,
could you?
598
00:23:41,194 --> 00:23:43,896
It's why you're stuck behind a desk
599
00:23:43,930 --> 00:23:46,065
instead of running
the entire force down at 1 P.P.
600
00:23:46,099 --> 00:23:49,201
I am not stuck anywhere.
601
00:23:49,236 --> 00:23:51,603
And I will never, never apologize
602
00:23:51,638 --> 00:23:53,278
for doing my job
to the letter of the law.
603
00:23:55,375 --> 00:23:58,243
Now, I'm gonna need
those wire recordings.
604
00:23:58,277 --> 00:24:00,646
Or do I have to go over your head?
605
00:24:09,188 --> 00:24:11,108
Anything that you find,
you bring it to me first.
606
00:24:11,123 --> 00:24:13,391
Do you understand?
607
00:24:13,426 --> 00:24:15,293
I will not have you screw up
608
00:24:15,327 --> 00:24:17,328
another one of my investigations.
609
00:24:24,636 --> 00:24:26,304
Let's not put her on the list.
610
00:24:26,338 --> 00:24:28,506
Yeah.
611
00:24:36,414 --> 00:24:38,082
I feel bad for Gates.
612
00:24:39,350 --> 00:24:41,218
My sisters could never work together.
613
00:24:41,252 --> 00:24:43,754
I tell you, when the two of them
went at it... whoo!
614
00:24:43,789 --> 00:24:45,322
I wouldn't mind
going at it with Gates' sister.
615
00:24:45,356 --> 00:24:46,490
Oh, yeah?
616
00:24:46,524 --> 00:24:48,484
How'd you like having Gates
as your sister-in-law?
617
00:24:51,196 --> 00:24:52,296
What?
618
00:24:52,330 --> 00:24:54,498
I think I got something.
619
00:24:54,532 --> 00:24:57,267
So, on March 21st, Peter Cordero's wire
620
00:24:57,302 --> 00:24:59,769
picked up a phone call from Hector Nunez
621
00:24:59,804 --> 00:25:01,738
to confirm that the transfer was done.
622
00:25:01,772 --> 00:25:04,207
The call came in at 9:25 A.M.
623
00:25:04,241 --> 00:25:05,641
That's pretty much what Hector said.
624
00:25:05,643 --> 00:25:08,111
Yeah, but listen to the next
two calls that Peter makes.
625
00:25:11,015 --> 00:25:12,616
He's saying, "I'm calling
on behalf of Armando Garcia."
626
00:25:12,650 --> 00:25:14,618
"I want to make sure
that his money was received."
627
00:25:14,652 --> 00:25:16,152
"Can you confirm the amount?"
628
00:25:17,438 --> 00:25:19,198
Then he says, "thank you,"
and then hangs up.
629
00:25:19,223 --> 00:25:20,623
Who's Armando Garcia?
630
00:25:20,657 --> 00:25:21,790
I checked with JP Harding,
631
00:25:21,825 --> 00:25:23,626
but they don't have
any clients by that name.
632
00:25:23,660 --> 00:25:25,794
So it wasn't company business?
633
00:25:25,829 --> 00:25:27,150
No. Now listen to the second call.
634
00:25:28,999 --> 00:25:30,699
Is he in?
It's Peter Cordero calling.
635
00:25:30,734 --> 00:25:33,102
Hey, everything's taken care of,
636
00:25:33,137 --> 00:25:35,171
but we're running out of time.
637
00:25:35,205 --> 00:25:37,873
We need to get this done
in the next couple days.
638
00:25:37,907 --> 00:25:39,775
Is that gonna be a problem?
639
00:25:41,477 --> 00:25:42,444
Good.
640
00:25:42,478 --> 00:25:43,846
"Everything's taken care of"...
641
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,381
that must be about the $25 million.
642
00:25:46,415 --> 00:25:48,884
But what exactly was getting
done in the next couple of days?
643
00:25:48,918 --> 00:25:50,452
And how did it get him killed?
644
00:25:50,486 --> 00:25:51,820
We need to find Armando Garcia.
645
00:25:51,855 --> 00:25:54,022
Yeah. Unfortunately,
it's a pretty common name.
646
00:25:54,056 --> 00:25:56,057
There are hundreds of Armando
Garcias in the U.S. alone.
647
00:25:56,091 --> 00:25:57,325
It's gonna be hard to narrow it down.
648
00:25:57,360 --> 00:25:59,727
Unless we can find out
who he was calling.
649
00:25:59,762 --> 00:26:01,763
At 9:25, Peter would have been at work.
650
00:26:01,797 --> 00:26:03,698
He would've made those
phone calls from his desk phone.
651
00:26:03,732 --> 00:26:05,093
If we can get those phone records,
652
00:26:05,100 --> 00:26:06,780
they could tell us
what he was involved in.
653
00:26:07,537 --> 00:26:08,936
I'll put in for a warrant.
654
00:26:08,971 --> 00:26:10,872
Hopefully, we'll get it by morning.
655
00:26:10,906 --> 00:26:13,875
You know, I was thinking
about Gates' sister,
656
00:26:13,909 --> 00:26:15,877
and it got me wondering...
657
00:26:15,911 --> 00:26:17,745
do you have any family
I don't know about?
658
00:26:17,780 --> 00:26:19,480
I don't think so.
659
00:26:19,514 --> 00:26:22,917
Good. Because this
"intimate wedding" of ours...
660
00:26:22,951 --> 00:26:24,886
Oh, no. You too?
661
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:26,820
- How bad is yours?
- I've got over 100.
662
00:26:26,854 --> 00:26:30,191
I'm at 300 over that.
663
00:26:30,225 --> 00:26:32,226
400?!
664
00:26:32,260 --> 00:26:34,495
Well, to be fair, I am world-famous...
665
00:26:34,529 --> 00:26:35,929
...ish.
666
00:26:35,963 --> 00:26:36,963
Uh, look, it's a first draft.
667
00:26:36,998 --> 00:26:38,098
It just needs some editing.
668
00:26:38,132 --> 00:26:40,334
Brutal, ruthless editing.
669
00:26:40,368 --> 00:26:42,436
Castle, Michael Connelly?
670
00:26:42,470 --> 00:26:44,370
You haven't seen him in over a year.
671
00:26:44,405 --> 00:26:47,040
Do you not remember what
he wrote about your last book?
672
00:26:47,075 --> 00:26:48,842
No. I think we got our first edit.
673
00:26:48,876 --> 00:26:50,443
Uh, well, I have to invite Connelly,
674
00:26:50,477 --> 00:26:52,245
because if he finds out
675
00:26:52,279 --> 00:26:53,446
that Jonathan Kellerman made the cut...
676
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:54,715
and I have to invite Kellerman
677
00:26:54,749 --> 00:26:56,382
because I have to invite
Wes Craven and Stephen King.
678
00:26:56,417 --> 00:26:57,817
Yeah, but we got to start somewhere.
679
00:26:57,819 --> 00:26:59,952
Well, I think I know where.
680
00:26:59,986 --> 00:27:01,120
Aunt Theresa?
681
00:27:01,154 --> 00:27:02,388
Really?
682
00:27:02,423 --> 00:27:04,224
After what she posted
about me on Facebook?
683
00:27:04,258 --> 00:27:05,525
She took it down.
684
00:27:05,559 --> 00:27:07,293
Fine.
685
00:27:07,328 --> 00:27:08,361
What are we gonna do?
686
00:27:08,395 --> 00:27:10,196
We can't have 500 people at the wedding.
687
00:27:10,231 --> 00:27:12,198
Hello, you two.
688
00:27:12,233 --> 00:27:16,135
Ah, help has arrived in the form
of a neutral third party.
689
00:27:16,169 --> 00:27:18,470
Someone who was born
to be brutal and ruthless.
690
00:27:18,504 --> 00:27:19,839
Thank you. Thank you.
691
00:27:19,873 --> 00:27:21,273
Aha!
692
00:27:21,307 --> 00:27:24,610
Oh, still working
on the invite list, I see.
693
00:27:24,644 --> 00:27:26,411
Yes, actually.
And would you mind joining us?
694
00:27:26,446 --> 00:27:28,080
Love to.
695
00:27:28,115 --> 00:27:29,615
Let me get my list.
696
00:27:29,649 --> 00:27:33,418
Oh, you know, I had no idea how
many people I needed to invite
697
00:27:33,453 --> 00:27:34,986
until I wrote them all down.
698
00:27:35,020 --> 00:27:36,121
Mm.
699
00:28:37,451 --> 00:28:38,611
Good news.
700
00:28:38,619 --> 00:28:41,087
I crossed-referenced
my mother's list with my list.
701
00:28:41,121 --> 00:28:42,722
We have three names in common.
702
00:28:42,756 --> 00:28:45,696
Wow, three names. That's... great.
703
00:28:45,712 --> 00:28:48,998
That takes us from, what, 585 to 582?
704
00:28:49,014 --> 00:28:51,115
There's got to be
a better way to cut this down.
705
00:28:51,150 --> 00:28:52,983
Ryan, you guys kept your wedding small.
706
00:28:53,018 --> 00:28:54,519
What was it... like 100 people?
707
00:28:54,553 --> 00:28:56,054
Yeah, that's all we could afford.
708
00:28:56,088 --> 00:28:58,389
How did you contain the list?
709
00:28:59,691 --> 00:29:01,331
I have a lot of relatives
who hate me now.
710
00:29:02,226 --> 00:29:06,129
So, the warrant on Cordero's
phone finally came through.
711
00:29:06,164 --> 00:29:07,698
Whoever this Armando Garcia is,
712
00:29:07,732 --> 00:29:08,899
it has something to do with Venezuela.
713
00:29:08,934 --> 00:29:11,101
That's where Peter was from.
714
00:29:11,135 --> 00:29:12,703
Yeah, that first call
confirming the $25 million?
715
00:29:12,737 --> 00:29:14,271
It was made to a bank in Venezuela.
716
00:29:14,305 --> 00:29:16,173
The second call
was to the Venezuela Consulate
717
00:29:16,207 --> 00:29:17,507
right here in the city.
718
00:29:17,542 --> 00:29:18,675
It was the direct line
of a senior official there...
719
00:29:18,709 --> 00:29:21,144
a Luis Delgado.
720
00:29:22,313 --> 00:29:25,182
Clandestine wire transfers,
721
00:29:25,216 --> 00:29:27,417
a high-ranking consulate official,
722
00:29:27,452 --> 00:29:31,421
all circling around
the mysterious Armando Garcia.
723
00:29:31,456 --> 00:29:32,556
What was Cordero doing?
724
00:29:32,590 --> 00:29:34,657
I don't know,
but I can't wait to find out.
725
00:29:34,692 --> 00:29:38,595
Swiss bank accounts,
secret money transfers...
726
00:29:38,629 --> 00:29:41,397
it's got international intrigue
written all over it.
727
00:29:41,431 --> 00:29:44,467
It was just a simple passport request.
728
00:29:44,501 --> 00:29:46,268
A passport request?
729
00:29:46,303 --> 00:29:47,637
Yes, that's why he called.
730
00:29:47,671 --> 00:29:49,305
Well, what about the money?
731
00:29:49,339 --> 00:29:52,475
I'm afraid I don't know
anything about any money.
732
00:29:52,509 --> 00:29:53,809
Really?
733
00:29:53,843 --> 00:29:56,004
I suppose you've never heard of
Armando Garcia, either?
734
00:29:56,012 --> 00:29:57,480
Armando Garcia?
735
00:29:57,514 --> 00:30:00,316
Yes, of course
I heard of Armando Garcia.
736
00:30:00,350 --> 00:30:01,517
You have?
737
00:30:01,551 --> 00:30:03,852
That's who I got the passport for.
738
00:30:03,886 --> 00:30:07,856
Wait, I thought that the
passport was for Peter Cordero.
739
00:30:07,890 --> 00:30:10,626
Yes, Peter Cordero, Armando Garcia...
740
00:30:11,661 --> 00:30:16,564
...it's the same guy.
741
00:30:16,599 --> 00:30:18,233
He changed his name to fit in.
742
00:30:18,267 --> 00:30:22,004
But his birth name was Armando Garcia.
743
00:30:23,572 --> 00:30:26,574
He was sending the money to himself.
744
00:30:26,609 --> 00:30:29,377
You said he was requesting a passport.
745
00:30:29,411 --> 00:30:30,978
A Venezuelan passport?
746
00:30:31,013 --> 00:30:32,347
Yes, of course.
747
00:30:32,381 --> 00:30:36,684
Cordero applied to re-establish
his Venezuelan citizenship,
748
00:30:36,718 --> 00:30:38,586
and we were more than happy to oblige.
749
00:30:38,621 --> 00:30:40,588
Under the name "Armando Garcia"?
750
00:30:40,623 --> 00:30:42,857
That's right. But, uh...
751
00:30:42,891 --> 00:30:45,960
there was something odd
about his request.
752
00:30:45,994 --> 00:30:48,262
He asked to pick up the passport
in Mexico City.
753
00:30:48,296 --> 00:30:51,932
Mexico City? Did he say why?
754
00:30:51,967 --> 00:30:53,934
No, but he was supposed to
get it yesterday
755
00:30:53,969 --> 00:30:56,170
at our embassy there.
756
00:30:56,204 --> 00:30:57,237
He had booked a flight
757
00:30:57,272 --> 00:30:58,838
from Mexico City to Caracas that night.
758
00:30:58,873 --> 00:31:01,041
He was running away?
759
00:31:01,075 --> 00:31:02,376
Not just running away,
760
00:31:02,410 --> 00:31:05,379
changing his identity completely.
761
00:31:05,413 --> 00:31:07,013
He never intended to testify.
762
00:31:07,048 --> 00:31:08,982
He was just stringing my sister along
763
00:31:09,016 --> 00:31:10,116
until he could escape.
764
00:31:10,151 --> 00:31:12,085
All he had to do was drive to Mexico.
765
00:31:12,119 --> 00:31:13,920
Once he boarded that flight to Caracas
766
00:31:13,954 --> 00:31:16,422
under his new identity,
paid for with a new credit card,
767
00:31:16,456 --> 00:31:18,058
Peter Cordero would cease to exist.
768
00:31:18,092 --> 00:31:19,625
Your sister would never find him.
769
00:31:19,660 --> 00:31:21,127
But he wasn't
gonna leave empty-handed,
770
00:31:21,162 --> 00:31:23,462
so he made one last desperate deal.
771
00:31:23,497 --> 00:31:25,298
The night he was killed,
772
00:31:25,332 --> 00:31:26,866
he was preparing to disappear forever
773
00:31:26,901 --> 00:31:28,101
along with the $25 million.
774
00:31:28,135 --> 00:31:31,036
You don't just conjure
$25 million out of thin air.
775
00:31:31,071 --> 00:31:32,438
It came from somewhere.
776
00:31:32,472 --> 00:31:33,972
And, given the circumstances,
nowhere legal.
777
00:31:34,007 --> 00:31:36,909
If you're right,
it'll destroy my sister's case.
778
00:31:36,943 --> 00:31:39,078
All his testimony will be tainted.
779
00:31:39,112 --> 00:31:40,479
Sir, what do you want us to do?
780
00:31:40,514 --> 00:31:43,249
Find the truth.
781
00:31:44,444 --> 00:31:45,884
In order to do that, we need to know
782
00:31:45,885 --> 00:31:47,953
where the money came from,
and there's no way to find out.
783
00:31:47,987 --> 00:31:50,122
Uh, maybe there is.
784
00:31:50,156 --> 00:31:52,424
You know that secret
Armando Garcia credit card?
785
00:31:52,458 --> 00:31:54,893
You know, the one he used
to buy the plane ticket?
786
00:31:54,928 --> 00:31:56,628
We found another charge on it
787
00:31:56,662 --> 00:31:59,397
for a computer station
he rented at an Internet cafe.
788
00:31:59,432 --> 00:32:00,799
He was there the exact same time
789
00:32:00,834 --> 00:32:04,135
that $25 million showed up
in his account.
790
00:32:04,169 --> 00:32:05,737
So whatever he was doing there
was related to the transfer.
791
00:32:05,771 --> 00:32:07,071
That cafe has security video.
792
00:32:07,106 --> 00:32:08,840
If we can get a look
at the computer screen
793
00:32:08,874 --> 00:32:10,074
or Peter's fingers on the keyboard,
794
00:32:10,109 --> 00:32:12,110
maybe we can figure out
where that money came from.
795
00:32:12,144 --> 00:32:13,478
And why he was killed.
796
00:32:23,688 --> 00:32:27,524
Sir, uh... you okay?
797
00:32:27,559 --> 00:32:30,594
Oh, just trying to figure out
how to tell my sister
798
00:32:30,629 --> 00:32:32,864
her case is compromised
without her blaming me.
799
00:32:32,898 --> 00:32:36,433
Why would she blame you
when you're just doing you job?
800
00:32:36,468 --> 00:32:38,769
There's a history.
801
00:32:38,803 --> 00:32:40,638
Mm.
802
00:32:40,672 --> 00:32:43,474
1998.
803
00:32:43,508 --> 00:32:46,443
I had just been made
head of Internal Affairs.
804
00:32:46,478 --> 00:32:48,845
Elizabeth was in the D.A.'s office.
805
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,115
We called ourselves "the dynamic duo."
806
00:32:52,150 --> 00:32:54,617
At the time, Elizabeth was closing in
807
00:32:54,652 --> 00:32:57,254
on a heroin ring in East New York,
808
00:32:57,288 --> 00:32:59,923
and they had an undercover inside.
809
00:32:59,957 --> 00:33:02,993
His testimony was key
to the case, but...
810
00:33:03,027 --> 00:33:04,861
He was dirty?
811
00:33:04,896 --> 00:33:07,497
He skimmed a few eight balls
off the very bust
812
00:33:07,531 --> 00:33:09,799
Elizabeth was building her case around.
813
00:33:09,833 --> 00:33:12,635
And when my office
caught him re-selling it,
814
00:33:12,670 --> 00:33:15,871
she came to me,
begged me not to file charges,
815
00:33:15,906 --> 00:33:18,641
asked me to think of the greater good.
816
00:33:21,011 --> 00:33:25,281
I did my job that day, too.
817
00:33:26,749 --> 00:33:30,219
Hasn't been the same between us since.
818
00:33:33,523 --> 00:33:35,291
Security video is in.
819
00:33:37,227 --> 00:33:39,594
There's Cordero.
820
00:33:39,629 --> 00:33:41,297
But the angle
is over the monitor.
821
00:33:41,331 --> 00:33:43,365
- We can't see the screen.
- Or the keyboard.
822
00:33:43,399 --> 00:33:44,960
There's no way to tell what he's doing.
823
00:33:46,936 --> 00:33:48,257
Wait a minute. Wait. Who is that?
824
00:33:50,005 --> 00:33:52,040
Take a look at the time code.
825
00:33:52,074 --> 00:33:54,042
It's right around the moment
826
00:33:54,076 --> 00:33:57,178
the $25 million got into
Cordero's Swiss bank account.
827
00:33:59,081 --> 00:34:01,282
It's him. He transferred
the money to Cordero.
828
00:34:01,317 --> 00:34:04,219
A covert transfer from
an untraceable I.P. address,
829
00:34:04,253 --> 00:34:05,854
paid for under an alias.
830
00:34:05,888 --> 00:34:07,255
These people took extraordinary measures
831
00:34:07,289 --> 00:34:09,324
to keep from being discovered.
832
00:34:09,358 --> 00:34:11,025
Zoom in.
833
00:34:11,693 --> 00:34:13,728
Freeze it.
834
00:34:13,762 --> 00:34:16,263
Wait. That's Cordero's boss.
That's Jamie Berman.
835
00:34:16,297 --> 00:34:19,132
Why would Berman secretly pay
Cordero $25 million?
836
00:34:19,167 --> 00:34:20,968
Only one reason.
837
00:34:21,002 --> 00:34:22,035
Cordero must have told Berman
838
00:34:22,070 --> 00:34:23,504
about the U.S. Attorney's investigation.
839
00:34:23,538 --> 00:34:26,723
And Berman was paying him
to throw the case.
840
00:34:36,938 --> 00:34:38,779
If Berman was paying Cordero
to throw the case,
841
00:34:38,804 --> 00:34:41,726
then the recordings
from his wire were all lies.
842
00:34:41,750 --> 00:34:42,817
Berman was feeding
843
00:34:42,851 --> 00:34:44,985
the U.S. Attorney's Office
false evidence.
844
00:34:45,020 --> 00:34:47,454
And if Elizabeth
was building her case on that,
845
00:34:47,488 --> 00:34:49,857
she would have been torn apart
by the defense.
846
00:34:49,891 --> 00:34:51,291
Keeping her out of Berman's business
847
00:34:51,326 --> 00:34:53,928
for quite a while, if not forever.
848
00:34:53,962 --> 00:34:56,463
All this time, my sister thought
she was taking down Berman
849
00:34:56,497 --> 00:34:58,365
when he was really trying
to take down her.
850
00:34:58,399 --> 00:35:00,100
The one thing
it doesn't explain, though,
851
00:35:00,134 --> 00:35:02,035
is why Cordero was killed.
852
00:35:02,069 --> 00:35:03,870
Berman's up to his eyeballs in this.
853
00:35:03,904 --> 00:35:06,240
You bring him in here
and find out what he knows.
854
00:35:06,274 --> 00:35:08,007
Yes, sir.
855
00:35:10,511 --> 00:35:12,979
I'm afraid
you're mistaken, detective.
856
00:35:13,013 --> 00:35:15,715
I didn't transfer any money
to Mr. Cordero,
857
00:35:15,750 --> 00:35:19,052
certainly not $25 million.
858
00:35:19,086 --> 00:35:20,686
And yet, the moment
that you press that button,
859
00:35:20,721 --> 00:35:22,956
$25 million showed up
in Cordero's account.
860
00:35:22,990 --> 00:35:25,792
You have no evidence that
account belongs to Mr. Cordero,
861
00:35:25,826 --> 00:35:28,795
just as you have no evidence
that money came from my client.
862
00:35:28,829 --> 00:35:31,597
Then why were you with him
in that Internet cafe?
863
00:35:31,632 --> 00:35:32,998
They have good coffee.
864
00:35:33,032 --> 00:35:35,834
I think there's a reason
why you went out of you way
865
00:35:35,869 --> 00:35:37,303
to keep that transfer a secret.
866
00:35:37,337 --> 00:35:39,472
I think Cordero told you
that he was being forced
867
00:35:39,506 --> 00:35:41,440
to be an informant
for the U.S. Attorney.
868
00:35:41,475 --> 00:35:44,176
And knowing that he would never
be able to work again,
869
00:35:44,210 --> 00:35:45,811
he struck a deal with you.
870
00:35:45,845 --> 00:35:49,281
$25 million in exchange
for providing false evidence
871
00:35:49,315 --> 00:35:51,616
to undermine the investigation.
872
00:35:51,651 --> 00:35:52,717
What investigation?
873
00:35:52,752 --> 00:35:54,386
You know exactly what investigation.
874
00:35:54,420 --> 00:35:56,155
And when you found out that he
wasn't gonna finish the job...
875
00:35:56,189 --> 00:35:58,690
that he was gonna leave town
and take your money with him...
876
00:35:58,724 --> 00:36:00,125
you had him killed.
877
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,727
And then you took the wire
that you knew he was wearing
878
00:36:02,762 --> 00:36:04,929
to cover up any recorded
evidence of the murder.
879
00:36:04,963 --> 00:36:07,666
That's all wild speculation.
880
00:36:07,700 --> 00:36:10,669
Not to mention,
you have your facts wrong.
881
00:36:12,104 --> 00:36:16,574
You said Peter was wearing
his wire when he was killed.
882
00:36:16,609 --> 00:36:19,344
I'm afraid that's not possible.
883
00:36:19,378 --> 00:36:20,812
So you knew about the wire?
884
00:36:20,846 --> 00:36:22,286
You admit you were in on it with him.
885
00:36:22,314 --> 00:36:23,547
Jamie.
886
00:36:23,581 --> 00:36:25,549
It's not illegal to know.
887
00:36:25,583 --> 00:36:26,583
And I guarantee you
888
00:36:26,618 --> 00:36:28,419
you will never link me to that payment,
889
00:36:28,453 --> 00:36:30,621
so you'll never be able
to prove witness tampering.
890
00:36:30,655 --> 00:36:32,790
But, yeah, I knew about the wire.
891
00:36:32,825 --> 00:36:35,526
And Peter wasn't wearing it
when he was killed
892
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,195
because he had already left it
for the feds
893
00:36:38,229 --> 00:36:40,798
at the dead drop
at Lafayette and Spring.
894
00:36:40,832 --> 00:36:42,700
How do you even...
895
00:36:43,935 --> 00:36:46,903
The walk that you took together.
896
00:36:46,938 --> 00:36:48,839
You were with him.
897
00:36:48,873 --> 00:36:51,208
I saw him go into the Mailbox door
898
00:36:51,242 --> 00:36:53,676
and put it into one of those boxes.
899
00:36:58,149 --> 00:36:59,182
Thank you for coming.
900
00:36:59,217 --> 00:37:01,284
Of course.
901
00:37:01,319 --> 00:37:02,418
There's been a break in the case?
902
00:37:02,453 --> 00:37:04,254
Yes, actually.
903
00:37:04,288 --> 00:37:05,488
New information has surfaced
904
00:37:05,522 --> 00:37:07,824
about Peter Cordero's murder.
905
00:37:07,859 --> 00:37:10,760
In fact, it seems someone
in the U.S. Attorney's Office
906
00:37:10,794 --> 00:37:13,329
lied about Cordero not leaving his wire
907
00:37:13,364 --> 00:37:15,565
at the dead drop the night of his death.
908
00:37:15,599 --> 00:37:16,733
No one lied.
909
00:37:16,767 --> 00:37:18,901
I went to the drop myself.
It wasn't there.
910
00:37:20,738 --> 00:37:21,738
Elizabeth?
911
00:37:24,408 --> 00:37:25,941
Tell her.
912
00:37:25,976 --> 00:37:29,912
Stefanie, if Peter
never turned in his wire,
913
00:37:29,946 --> 00:37:33,415
how did that day's recordings
end up on your computer?
914
00:37:33,449 --> 00:37:36,651
See, even though you erased them,
915
00:37:36,686 --> 00:37:39,922
the tech department here
was able to recover...
916
00:37:39,956 --> 00:37:41,257
everything.
917
00:37:41,291 --> 00:37:43,091
I don't know what you're talking about.
918
00:37:43,125 --> 00:37:45,260
Standard procedure was to turn them over
919
00:37:45,294 --> 00:37:47,228
for analysis the next morning.
920
00:37:47,263 --> 00:37:49,798
But you listened to
those tapes that night,
921
00:37:49,832 --> 00:37:51,566
and you heard something
you weren't supposed to,
922
00:37:51,601 --> 00:37:53,268
at least not until Cordero was gone.
923
00:37:55,237 --> 00:37:57,639
I came to the U.S.
believing in the American dream.
924
00:37:57,673 --> 00:38:01,409
So I worked hard and tried to
be honest in a corrupt world,
925
00:38:01,443 --> 00:38:02,743
working for corrupt and greedy people,
926
00:38:02,778 --> 00:38:05,446
because I still believed.
927
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:07,782
But when you, the U.S. Government,
928
00:38:07,816 --> 00:38:10,618
plants drugs on me,
threatens to destroy my future,
929
00:38:10,652 --> 00:38:13,521
all because you need someone to testify,
930
00:38:13,555 --> 00:38:16,089
how am I supposed to still believe?
931
00:38:16,124 --> 00:38:18,959
I did everything I could
to play by the rules,
932
00:38:18,993 --> 00:38:20,394
but no one else does.
933
00:38:20,429 --> 00:38:23,997
So by the time you hear this,
I'll be gone.
934
00:38:28,703 --> 00:38:30,704
We brought in the cop
that busted Cordero.
935
00:38:30,739 --> 00:38:36,876
He confessed to planting
the cocaine... on your orders.
936
00:38:36,911 --> 00:38:38,578
Why, Stefanie?
937
00:38:40,381 --> 00:38:43,150
You said you needed someone
on the inside,
938
00:38:43,184 --> 00:38:46,954
to make the case against Berman,
for the greater good.
939
00:38:46,988 --> 00:38:50,323
No.
Not like this.
940
00:38:50,357 --> 00:38:52,325
When you heard that recording
941
00:38:52,359 --> 00:38:53,793
and found out Peter was leaving,
942
00:38:53,828 --> 00:38:55,194
you knew it would all come out.
943
00:38:55,228 --> 00:38:56,796
So you went to his place.
944
00:38:56,831 --> 00:38:59,466
I... I went to try and talk to him,
but he wouldn't listen.
945
00:38:59,500 --> 00:39:02,401
And then you saw his gun,
946
00:39:02,436 --> 00:39:05,571
and you made sure that his story
would never get out.
947
00:39:05,605 --> 00:39:07,206
And then you made it look like
948
00:39:07,240 --> 00:39:09,442
he was killed for that recording.
949
00:39:17,417 --> 00:39:19,852
Detective Beckett, Mr. Castle.
950
00:39:19,886 --> 00:39:22,354
I would like to commend you
for your exemplary work
951
00:39:22,388 --> 00:39:24,756
in the face of head winds
from me and my office.
952
00:39:24,791 --> 00:39:25,924
Oh, thank you.
953
00:39:25,959 --> 00:39:28,093
But, I mean, we were just
all doing our jobs,
954
00:39:28,127 --> 00:39:29,427
following our Captain's lead.
955
00:39:31,464 --> 00:39:34,199
Did you manage to track down
that $25 million?
956
00:39:34,233 --> 00:39:36,034
Yes, it turns out that Mr. Cordero
957
00:39:36,068 --> 00:39:38,870
donated a large portion of it
to rebuild his hometown...
958
00:39:38,904 --> 00:39:40,405
the one that was destroyed
959
00:39:40,439 --> 00:39:41,906
in the earthquake
that killed his parents.
960
00:39:41,940 --> 00:39:43,808
Are you gonna try to recover it?
961
00:39:43,842 --> 00:39:46,077
Well, it's very difficult
to reclaim funds
962
00:39:46,112 --> 00:39:47,979
once they've left the country.
963
00:39:48,014 --> 00:39:51,716
Think that we have better uses
for our resources.
964
00:39:51,750 --> 00:39:54,652
I should be going, but thank you again.
965
00:39:56,989 --> 00:40:00,057
What about Berman?
Do you still have a case?
966
00:40:00,091 --> 00:40:01,425
Well, not the one that I thought,
967
00:40:01,459 --> 00:40:03,260
but at least I won't embarrass
myself in court
968
00:40:03,261 --> 00:40:05,295
presenting evidence that's untrue.
969
00:40:05,330 --> 00:40:07,765
Then Berman paid
$25 million for nothing.
970
00:40:07,799 --> 00:40:10,067
Bet that hurt.
971
00:40:10,101 --> 00:40:11,502
Probably, but it's not enough.
972
00:40:11,536 --> 00:40:13,203
We will build our case the right way.
973
00:40:13,238 --> 00:40:15,539
It may take some time,
but we'll get him.
974
00:40:15,573 --> 00:40:17,441
Thank you, Victoria.
975
00:40:17,475 --> 00:40:19,076
For what?
976
00:40:19,110 --> 00:40:21,645
For doing your job so well.
977
00:40:24,215 --> 00:40:25,449
So, I know it's... it's late
978
00:40:25,483 --> 00:40:26,917
and you probably want to get home,
979
00:40:26,951 --> 00:40:29,519
but after today,
I could really use a drink...
980
00:40:30,755 --> 00:40:32,121
...and a sister.
981
00:40:33,691 --> 00:40:35,491
Me too.
982
00:40:44,268 --> 00:40:46,936
You know, in the end,
Gates' sister wasn't that bad.
983
00:40:46,970 --> 00:40:48,871
Does that mean we have
to invite her to the wedding?
984
00:40:48,905 --> 00:40:51,474
Yeah, what about that... our lists?
985
00:40:51,508 --> 00:40:53,042
Castle, we can't have
that many people coming.
986
00:40:53,077 --> 00:40:54,843
Agreed. So, what do we do?
987
00:40:54,878 --> 00:40:56,045
I think we have to decide
988
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,047
why we're actually having this wedding.
989
00:40:58,082 --> 00:40:59,315
I mean, are we doing this
990
00:40:59,349 --> 00:41:01,083
not to insult hundreds of people
991
00:41:01,117 --> 00:41:02,651
or are we doing this for us?
992
00:41:02,686 --> 00:41:04,486
Well, for us.
993
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,321
Well, then, why don't we
just take a minute
994
00:41:06,355 --> 00:41:08,190
and write down the names
of all the people
995
00:41:08,224 --> 00:41:10,926
that absolutely, positively
have to be there,
996
00:41:10,961 --> 00:41:13,261
no matter what, to make us happy?
997
00:41:13,296 --> 00:41:14,496
One minute.
998
00:41:14,530 --> 00:41:15,764
Yeah.
999
00:41:15,799 --> 00:41:18,200
That's not much time.
What if we forget someone?
1000
00:41:18,234 --> 00:41:20,602
Then they shouldn't have been
invited in the first place.
1001
00:41:22,605 --> 00:41:23,572
Let's do it.
1002
00:41:23,606 --> 00:41:25,273
Okay.
1003
00:41:25,308 --> 00:41:27,875
All right.
1004
00:41:27,910 --> 00:41:29,877
- Are we ready?
- Yep.
1005
00:41:29,912 --> 00:41:31,746
One minute.
1006
00:41:31,780 --> 00:41:33,181
And go.
1007
00:41:35,985 --> 00:41:38,052
You stopped writing.
1008
00:41:38,087 --> 00:41:41,122
So did you.
1009
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:53,700
Of course...
1010
00:41:53,735 --> 00:41:57,137
I'm going to have to invite
my mother and Alexis.
1011
00:41:57,171 --> 00:41:59,572
- Yeah, and my dad and aunt Theresa.
- Right.
1012
00:41:59,607 --> 00:42:02,408
Espo and Ryan, who will bring Jenny.
1013
00:42:02,443 --> 00:42:03,576
Mm-hmm. Lanie.
1014
00:42:03,611 --> 00:42:04,977
Lanie.
1015
00:42:05,012 --> 00:42:06,912
I'm gonna have to invite
the poker group.
1016
00:42:06,947 --> 00:42:09,382
- Yeah, Maddie.
- Gates.
1017
00:42:09,416 --> 00:42:11,618
Ooh! And Gates' family.
