Previously on AMC's Low Winter Sun...
- I want to cut a deal. - Ain't no deal for you!
You might not see me for a few days.
Looks like we got a break in the case.
You want to stay out of prison?
He needs to disappear.
I believe the witness may have actually seen
Geddes and Agnew by the river.
Why'd you really come over here last night, Frank?
She's not meant to be found.
I've looked all over for you.
You two will be heroes when I put you on the stand in the Lady Belle trial.
Andre Murray confessed to me before he died.
He confessed to me on his deathbed.
Detective Joe Geddes
Witnessed the confession.
We worked the case together.
Asshole.
Andre Murray confessed and gave up his accomplice Benjamin Cole.
Benjamin Cole tortured and killed Elizabeth Cooper.
Lady Belle.
She was 14 years old.
Snatched her a block back. Gratiot and Rosemary.
Right off the damn curb.
Waiting at the crosswalk for the light.
- I know the story. - Family figured she ran away,
So never reported her missing.
Gave 'em more time to neglect the other three, I guess.
This you telling me I got it good.
Some kind of sick wisdom there.
If they go,
Let 'em be gone.
Can't raise a family in a ruined city.
Leave it to the dogs.
The dogs and the dispossessed.
Hey, this is me
Reflecting on how good I have it.
You. Here.
Cable, I need you to set up a firewall.
I want you to tell me who visits a site. Anyone from the 313.
Cam-house has thousands of members, Frank. Gets a ton of traffic.
Okay, I'll give you an IP address.
Track that. Tell me if it hits the cam-house.
- Whose is it? - It's 316-235-1279. You got it?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Who am I ghosting, Frank?
Just track it.
See if you can get it as close as you can.
Get that porch roof in first.
Then we'll see how much room we got left.
Yeah, like that.
There goes the neighborhood.
Tim.
- Good morning. You good? - Good and ready.
Yeah, you are. Now, listen,
I'm gonna break down your stats for the jury. Build your ass up,
Then walk 'em through the case like they're children.
- I'm prepped. - Couple of days on the stand, minimum.
Now, Pierce is gonna work you on the cross.
I know Pierce.
- Where's Joe Geddes? - He's up after you.
Is he in for the long haul?
He's corroborating your testimony, Frank.
He's here as long as you are.
Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth
And nothing but the truth, so help you god?
So help me god.

A park ranger on Belle Isle called in the body.
He was leading a field trip, fourth graders out of Merrill Elementary.
Children found the remains.
Ranger told them it was a deer.
Once on scene, detective, what did you notice about the body?
As we exhumed, it became clear from her clothes that it was a girl.
- What was the state of the body? - Multiple fractures, partial burns,
- One eye was missing. - Did an animal take the eye?
Objection. Leading.
Let me rephrase.
How did you believe she lost her eye?
- It was removed with a tool. - Objection.
Does the detective moonlight as a medical examiner?
A knife was buried with the body, counselor.
There were marks around the orbit of the eye.
The medical examiner later matched the blade to the marks.
Well, I look forward to the medical examiner's testimony, thank you.
- You're welcome. - Your honor?
Objection sustained. Move along.
What did the condition of the body suggest, detective?
The girl suffered a violent end.
No tears yet, but juror number five got misty.
- Nice work, Frankie. - Don't call me Frankie.
It's two hours. Back at three.
Agnew.
What?
Drop me? Gotta get myself right.
No. I'm due back in court.
You're jamming me up here.
Yeah, so drop me, man. You don't gotta babysit my ass.
Exactly what I gotta do. I fronted your bail.
I'm your keeper till you appear before the judge.
No, not necessary, man. Not necessary.
You know, I'm gonna die from tooth decay, man.
Come on, I gotta get some medicine up in me.
I got something at home.
Nah, just swing me by the corridor.
No, you'll jackrabbit.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Frank.
Sorry for putting you out.
I am.
Yeah, I wanted to see 'em leave school, you know, that's it.
Like a parent.
Cops got you assaulting a crossing guard. How did that go down?
Yeah, I bumped him.
Was a little bitch-ass bitch.
Guy thought I was a pervert.
Come on.
I'm fine.
- What did you say you were? - Their father.
The kids hear you claim them?
What, you think the old man's just gonna give you a free pass?
We're all marked.
Doubt Skelos even knows my name.
We're all in this together, Steven.
- Greektown's ready for us. - You ain't next in line, man.
The only one who can run Greektown after Skelos is lowdown--
Yo, Steve, hear him out, man.
The reverend ain't got the right skin.
The Greek, the rev-- Damon, you cooked on both sides of the fence, man.
Then why are you here?
Do right by Michael's family.
If there's money to be had, I want to hand something to his next-of.
Stevie, there's no money.
There's nothing unless we clip Skelos.
So are you in?
Nah.
- Thanks for coming. - What happened?
Nothing yet.
We need you.
Why the hell do I have a tail?
How the hell do I know? I'm running my shop.
I don't need to get mixed up in all your trouble.
Boyd takes me down, you're next.
No, it don't work that way.
Derek Goslin. Marvin Shaw.
- What's this? - Germaine Tate.
Angela Tate. That one went down as a murder-suicide.
- What? - These are suicides that you signed off on.
And all of them were suspect murders that
The me turned to self-kills.
Only in Detroit.
Only in this godforsaken, firebombed hellhole.
I signed off to hide the bad work that Brendan done.
But you signed off for what? To cover your clearance stats?
I signed off because I trusted you, you sociopath son of a bitch!
Should have cuffed you to a car.
Let the river eels gnaw your ass.
You'll suffer for it, no matter.
This-- this mars you.
But, hey, we can survive it.
We just need a course correction.
First-- first you gotta back Dani off
Of Damon Callis for the murder of Billy Hobson.
What for? Hobson connects Bobek. Bobek connects Brendan.
- That was your whole damn dance for the mayor. - Yeah.
You walked in there, that was you whole damn dance.
- You... - Yeah.
Oh, my god.
If you knock down the piedmont--
Which they keep threatening to do--
Knock down the piedmont, you can see the river.
- Get in, get in. - It hurts, man.
It hurts me, man, everywhere.
I gotta get this rot outta me.
I told you to see a dentist.
I gotta get back to court. I'm bailing your ass out.
Yeah, you coulda just dropped me, Frank.
I'll make you some food.
No, I can't even move my mouth to chew, man.
I can't even swallow.
All right, I'll do something for the pain.
Yeah, something.
Yeah, Frank, do something.
Do something-- whoa, whoa.
What are you doing? No. Not like that.
You know what? Here, look. Ah!
What are you doing, Frank? What the hell, man?
Get back-- get back here and listen to me.
Stop-- stop squirming. Listen, listen.
- Okay, okay, okay. - You're infected, okay?
We have to get that out of your head, otherwise you're gonna die
Because you have a septic infection. Do you understand me?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Jeez.
- Okay. - Okay, okay.
- What are you doing? - Get down, hold on to something.
- I got it. I got it. - Do it. Do it, Frank.
- Just do it. - hold on to something.
hold on to something.
Here we go.
Got it.
There she is.
Dawson's pushing me off Damon.
He wants me chasing Michael Drake.
Drake's valid.
Since when?
You know it's Damon.
I don't know.
Damon killed Billy Hobson, you know that.
No, I don't.
Callis would be in lockup now if it weren't for Joe losing it.
But he did, Dani.
Joe lost it, so what are you gonna do about that, huh?
You gonna moan because it didn't go your way
Or are you gonna handle it?
- Why are you being like this? - Because you're being lazy.
Exhaust your options. Track Drake.
You got a missing suspect, okay? A valid suspect.
Have you been to the pig in brush park, huh?
- Have you even checked that? - That's a waste of time.
Do your job before you bitch about how Dawson does his, okay?
All right, Frank.
You have blood on your shirt.
Had two commendations, report of meritorious service,
Mayor's civic medal, medal of valor--
We established detective Agnew's credentials on direct.
Get to it, counselor.
You are a real hero, aren't you, detective Agnew?
- No, sir. - No?
- Your closure rate is 73%. - That's correct.
In a department that averages 47. How do you explain that?
Unless there's a statute against excellent police work, what are we talking about?
What are we talking about, counselor?
Your honor, the state's case is based on a confession
Allegedly given by a dying man to detective Agnew.
Now, the detective has a service record
That defies statistical reason
And I'm exploring the possibility
That the detective's stupefying record is based
Not on police work, but on fabrication.
For the love of all that is holy-- look, if defense counsel
Has any evidence of past misdeeds, present them.
This case is based on the word of the one man
Most invested in condemning my client.
Through the confession, we secured the murder weapons.
Possessions the accused saved as trophies.
The boat they transported Elizabeth in.
All fruit of the poison tree.
Objection, your honor. Enough.
Sustained. There is no reason to believe
That detectives Agnew and Geddes invented the confession.
It's in. Move on.
I need you to do what you're gonna do.
If you can.
Okay.
Look, I gotta go.
Testimony holding up?
Only guy who could say otherwise is dead,
So, yeah, it's fine.
Pierce is gonna press you.
Like Pierce.
He offered me a job as his investigator years back.
You should have jumped at that.
I got a tail, Frank.
Boyd. Don't figure he's gonna move on me
Until all of this is wrapped up.
Prosecutor wouldn't stand for it.
They need us holy.
Hey, we should have stayed partners past Lady Belle.
Joseph Geddes?
Yeah, I'm coming.
None of this would of happened, we stayed partners past that.
Come.
Come on, Damon, sit down.
Sit.
Toast our new endeavor.
Yeah?
I've done much for you, Damon.
Please, don't be rude.
Thank you for bailing me out.
You're welcome.
So why'd you do it?
I take care of my own.
Know how many times your father required assistance?
Your mother?
Why'd you bail me out?
Why wouldn't I?
Why wouldn't I, Damon?
Did you do something else to displease me?
- No. - You meant to.
You were gonna say things about me
To save this one.
We all protect what we love.
But I didn't do anything.
You threatened to reveal information about me.
But I didn't do it.
Because Joe Geddes hit you.
That's not why. He's a liar.
You know,
I'm not gonna kill you, Damon.
I hope never to kill you,
Because there'll be no need.
You will never
speak your secrets.
We all protect what we love.
You'll suffer to keep these babies safe.
Like your father did for you.
No, I got it.
Hey, thanks.
That was a friend of mine
And he has scored us three tickets
For Alvin Ailey tomorrow night.
- Really? - Really.
And I got a few days owed to me.
Well, I got school.
Jesus will forgive.
So the ailey company's here in Detroit?
Nah, Chicago.
You make me so hot.
There's more.
I'll show you everything.
Private show.
Hi, baby.
Turn on your camera.
I want to see your face.
Are you stroking it for Sasha?
Do you want to pay for talk?
Far, far away.
Thank you.
Don't talk about family.
Is dream come to life.
Turn on camera.
Turn on camera, now,
Or end date.
Sean.
Sean, hey.
Look here, shh, don't say anything.
No.
There is no one.
Why you not with her?
Here you go.
Are you leaving me to my own devices?
This ain't rehab.
I can get you in if you want.
Maybe you should drop yourself off.
Sex addicts anonymous, something.
Not your place.
That the girl? Last night?
The one got to you?
It's not your place, Sean.
How come she can't see your face?
I'm protecting her.
She's a CI.
She can't put eyes on you?
Trying to save this bitch.
I'm trying to stop her from getting hurt.
That ain't what you do.
Look at your walls, huh.
Come look at your walls.
That's what Frank Agnew does.
You don't save.
You're the one that rolls up on shit too late.
Well, I'm okay.
Yeah? You got a tail.
Blue impala.
Been there since you brought me.
Looks like we all in deep.
Okay.
You can stay here if you want.
I might do. Might do.
Yeah, I got nowhere to be.
Nowhere immediate.
Saw may the other day.
Uh-huh.
She got me thinking about the kids.
I took, like, the bus out to Grosse Point
And I don't know what I was thinking, you know?
I wasn't-- wasn't really thinking
And, um, you know, I saw 'em--
I saw 'em leave school, you know, like they're--
With their backpacks and books and crap.
I saw 'em and, um,
And then they walked past me.
Yeah.
They were too young when you left.
Just walked past me.
Honest, I'm gonna stay here a while.
Sure.
Uh-huh.
This is where I apologize.
No need.
Tea?
Sure.
You know, uh...
You should--
You should work your case the way you see best.
I gotta do due diligence.
Dawson was right. You were right.
Rule out Michael before Damon.
Before I go self-righteous.
Dani,
Self-rightous is your default.
Thanks.
You okay?
Yeah.
Lady Belle is going well.
Little girl is going to get some justice.
Winning over the jury?
I'm a charmer. That's my default.
I gotta get back to court right away.
Yeah, that's not what I meant, though.
Are you okay?
Yeah, Dani.
I'm good. I'm fine.
You broke Lady Belle right when I made homicide.
Yeah, I remember.
You were so determined.
So good.
You inspired me.
Yeah.
You were right about before.
I've been off.
I felt it.
Since you and Katia split.
I don't know.
Did you want to break it off?
It was the right thing to do.
How'd you two meet?
She worked the casinos.
Oh, damn. I'm sorry.
Cable, talk to me.
- Dude, this is royally screwed. - What?
I can see no strange hits at the cam-house.
And that ip address hasn't logged on since you asked me to start tracking it,
- But, man... - What? Say it.
Frank, dude, you've hit that site dozens of times.
There's someone who works there. She's a CI. I'm protecting her.
You're not protecting her too good,
'cause somebody is watching you watch her.
- What the hell does that mean? - Someone--
Someone is monitoring your online activity, Frank.
You're trying to protect this chick?
You gave someone a road map straight to her.
Lose my number, bro.
Are you obsessed, detective?
Excuse me?
Lady Belle had been dead a year when you caught the case.
It took you years to solve it.
You work cases as long as you have to.
- Obsessively. - Objection.
Is this the state versus Frank Agnew again?
The city pays me for my obsession.
It's my responsibility to the departed.
But can't obsession delude? Make you see what's not there?
I only saw the evidence.
You only saw the evidence because a dying man
With no motive to confess gave it to you.
He had a motive,
A sinner man trying to save his soul.
Oh, so you're part police, part priest.
I have faith.
Which is why your client is on trial
And his partner is dead
instead of out torturing and thrill-killing innocent girls.
Objection!
You chose a dark path, mr. Pierce, don't curse the thorns.
I want that comment stricken from the record, your honor.
Remove the jury. My chambers.
Kicked his ass again.
Always liked you, Frank, but I just fell in love with you just now.
Where's Joe Geddes?
I mean, you yanked that genie out the bottle by his damn dick.
Yeah, Pierce is gonna cry for a mistrial, but Retman's not gonna truck with that.
- Not this time. - Tim, where the hell is Joe Geddes?
Easy, easy. Family emergency.
He logged out with the station.
- Where? - Chi-town, man. Chicago.
Come on, Frank.
Hey, Vinnie, got your car here?
- You look like crap. - Yeah, yeah.
- Is your car here? - Why?
Hey, Trey.
- You heading home? - Gotta stop and see my moms.
I need a lift. You out back?
This "driving ms. Daisy", mr. Agnew?
Just drive, Trey, please.
Take a right out of the parking lot.
- Nice car. - New promoter.
Sure breathing in some rarified new car smell.
Appreciate everything you done for me, mr. Agnew.
But I gotta move on.
Turn right.
Carry on, take a left on pontiac.
You getting out there?
No, you are. I need to borrow your ride.
- For real? - Come on, you owe me that, Trey.
I'll get it back to you tomorrow.
Hey, maybe your new promoter can give you a lift.
So?
I'm breathless.
You want me to listen to it, or would you rather tell it to me?
Frank's girlfriend,
He met her at the casino.
She was a prostitute.
Eastern european prostitute?
Like the woman who lured Anton Bobek to his death?
No, that's a coincidence.
Frank had nothing to do with that.
He couldn't.
The girl is the connective tissue.
We find her, we'll know.
We could hit him the next time he collects.
Too messy, too close to home.
Figured that. Cancels local holes.
The Acropolis, any of his fronts.
So we go to him.
Suburbs. His house is vulnerable.
Good angles. He won't expect it.
Okay.
So that's where we do it.
No.
Okay, baby. What do you mean, no?
I know that he scared you,
But what are you saying, baby?
You wanted him gone. You said that.
And I said this was gonna back up on you.
And it has. We are drowning in it.
- These are my kids, Damon. - This is more reason to do it.
More reason to run.
He's playing with us, okay?
- He-- he owns us. - He doesn't own us.
- Steven was right! - Steven was weak!
I gave up my kids to save them from this shit!
And killing him will keep them safe.
- What if you miss? - I will not miss.
- What then? - I will not miss.
What if you move on him and you fail?
That's not gonna happen.
- Maya's right. We can't risk it. - Shut up!
We're killing this asshole. That's the end of story.
Not with me.
I'm going to my sister's.
I'll move my whole family if I have to.
Oh, your whole family? Your family.
I'm your family.
I can't do this without you.
Then don't.
Only got two seats in the orchestra.
I gotta be up in the nosebleeds.
Oh, no, no, no. You sit with your daughter.
No, ma, you're good.
I want you to enjoy it.
And, uh, you too.
This is an experience, okay?
Thank you.
And I will meet you in the lobby after.
Okay.
What am I doing here?
I invited you to dinner.
I got dinner with my family.
You're keeping me.
Quick drink, then.
The pinot grigio is surprisingly good.
Why the hell am I here,
You peculiar little prick?
Pardon me.
Hi.
You are here, because this is where
Brendan McCann was murdered.

And I know what I said to you, what I did
in Windsor.
I meant to scare and I--
- I'm sorry. - Then why you find me?
Why you watch me on computer?
It's bad.
People are looking
And, yeah, they're bad.
I found you, so they'll find you
And they'll hurt you.
I'm trying to get you free of all this. That's why I reached out.
I promise.
You bring money?
Yeah.
I bring money.
It's folks close to Brendan. They're tracking you.

I say nothing. I swear--
They don't care.

Katia!
I have cousin.
Distant cousin.
Florida.
Right.

Took my daughter down there one time when she was still little,
Before things went bad between me and her mother.
Hmm.

Seven, eight years ago.
