You're disgusting,
Olivia, you're projecting all your insecurities on
really? So you're not screwing
some other woman behind your wife's back?
What? No.
I saw you together.
I understand you feel upset,
but feelings aren't always a fact.
Don't shrink me, David.
Who is she? One of your patients?
This is neither the time nor the place.
You're supposed to help people.
But you're so twisted up in your own
I said, this is not the time.
And we can have this conversation
when you're ready to behave like an adult.
Go to hell.
Who chose this hike again?
Boy.
Boys, are you doing ok?
My god, I'm going to kill him.
I can't believe he talked us into doing this.
This is insane.
Only 10 miles to go.
Ok, that's not funny.
I mean, isn't... isn't there, like, a turnaround
or something up here?
We can't just keep going straight up.
Ask your husband.
Hey, yeah, David?
Come on, come on, let's go.
- Come on, come on. - Hey, please be careful.
Careful.
Conrad, where is David? He's supposed to be with you.
Must have fallen behind.
Olivia. Hey.
Honey, did you see David down there?
What?
Where is he?
I've got to get off this mountain.
- David! - David?
David?
David, where are you?
Dad? Hang on a sec.
Hey, there he is.
Hey, yourself. I've been calling you.
What, you don't have time for your old man anymore?
Of course I got time.
But we're not all living off our pension.
Can't spend all day on the green.
Yeah. Yeah.
Listen, I wanted to talk to you about something.
Yeah, what's up?
I got a call from a buddy on the parole board.
Nothing official. Just... just a courtesy.
But he said Dean bartlett applied for commutation.
That's got nothing to do with me.
You're on his file,
so they're going to want to talk to you.
Now, you don't have to say yes, but your dad is
he's not my dad.
I understand that,
but he is your biological father.
So you're going to be getting a call.
There's a good shot he gets out this time.
Wes, listen to me.
Now, whatever you decide, I want you to remember,
you've got a good thing going.
Don't let this drag you back under.
You hear me?
Yeah, I hear you.
Ok.
Ok, buddy.
Talk soon.
Normally, these cases are handled by local consul,
but this one's a little different.
Dr. David steiner, a psychologist from Virginia.
He disappeared two days ago while on a hike with his family
in the Swiss alps.
A tourist went missing in the woods.
Why is this coming to us?
Steiner works for the office of the director
of national intelligence.
He's an expert in behavioral analysis.
Dni uses him to profile foreign officials
and identify high-value targets
for human intelligence asset recruitment.
So he turns spies?
The dni agents do the legwork.
But the strategy comes from steiner.
He's played a critical role in the intelligence war,
helped turn dozens of assets.
It says he's been in and out of Switzerland for a year,
so I doubt he was there on vacation.
Dni confirmed that he was on assignment.
But they wouldn't give us any more info.
But they made it clear that they're eager to have him
back in their ranks.
It's all hands on deck.
Yeah, I would think so.
This guy's a walking rolodex of traitors and spies.
We might not be the only people looking for him.
We've been asked to fold in as reinforcements.
The case agent will meet you on the ground in Switzerland.
Ok, good. Who's the case agent?
Tyler booth.
Hey, that's some good news.
Look who it is.
- What's up, Ty? - Hey.
- Good to see you. - You too.
- Hi. - Hi.
- What's up, man? - What's going on?
Are you staying out of trouble?
Only for you.
They got you at the wfo now?
Yeah, with the extraterritorial squad.
The space aliens.
Territories outside the U.S., smartass.
You know that.
Turns out I like travel perks.
Come on, read us in.
All right, so David steiner has been on assignment
in Bern for the last 12 months
until this week, when he went on vacation with his wife
and two kids to zermatt.
They traveled with another family, the baumanns.
They all went out hiking on, rhine
"rheinwaldenhorn"
definitely just butchered that.
The family found his belongings on the edge of a cliff,
but there aren't any usable prints.
That trail gets a lot of traffic this time of year.
Any witnesses?
None, and no trace of a body.
The river below is part of the rhine watershed,
and with the mountain ice melting,
all that stuff gets swept right into the north sea.
Has an Interpol yellow notice been issued?
It has, but they're asking us
to keep David's official position quiet.
If he is found, we don't want him
falling into the wrong hands.
It's going to be hard to find this guy
if we're handcuffed with intel.
Well, we're just going to have to work around them.
So, cam, Andre, go talk to the leg at in Bern,
see if we can get anything from the station chief there.
I'll check in with my friends at the hague,
see if they've got anything.
Sounds good.
Hey, so, dni said steiner was working
on something high level
but wouldn't specify what or with who.
Good old inter-agency handshake.
Yeah, what they're not saying's
loud and clear, though.
This guy's got a lot of people nervous.
Dni wants him recovered, even if all we find is a body.
So if the FBI are involved,
they think there was a crime, right?
Did... did somebody hurt David?
We're just doing our due diligence.
And have you found anything?
Nothing concrete.
We're hoping you can help us out.
Full house.
Hey.
- Gentlemen. - Hello.
Hi.
Yeah, the baumanns are our oldest friends.
They're family, really.
David and Conrad went to college together.
Was David on assignment here?
Yep, for the past year.
I mean, he did come home to visit a couple of times.
Well, the boys missed him so much.
That's why we planned this trip.
Do you know what he was working on?
No.
It was all very secretive.
But, well, whatever it was, it wasn't going well.
Why do you say that?
He was only supposed to be here a few months,
and it kept getting extended.
David was... well, he was frustrated.
He was distant.
You think it's possible your husband
might have hurt himself?
Absolutely not.
He had the kids. He had me.
He would never do that to us.
Why?
Do you think he killed himself?
No, no. That's not what we're saying.
We just need to look at every angle.
We'll need statements from everyone
that was there on the day.
So you are investigating a crime?
We're just trying to figure out what happened.
Ok.
Right.
- Well, I'll get everyone. - Ok.
How's it going?
Fine.
Cool.
And your name is?
Olivia.
If steiner's work was this heavy-duty,
maybe he was targeted.
Well, he is partially responsible for turning
high-level agents against their own government,
so I wouldn't be surprised
if he was on a few blacklists himself.
What if it was a hit?
They would have made sure he was dead
before he went in the water, but there was no gunshot
or blood at the scene.
Chased down a lead with a friend at the hague.
Steiner's main point of contact in Bern
was cris Marlee, U.S. ambassador to Switzerland.
Maybe he can clue us in to David's special project.
She. Ambassador Marlee is a woman.
If steiner was working with the ambassador,
they weren't just targeting access agents.
They were going after someone big.
All right, I'm going to loop in Wes and Tyler.
Amanda, come look at this.
Steiner's laptop has a built-in full disk encryption,
which is standard for government devices.
It looks like they did a remote scrub
the second that he went missing.
Well, that makes sense.
We already know dni's being precious about their intel.
Well, the thing is, the disk wasn't cleared.
There's a few hundred gigs of data still on here.
I just can't find the files.
Maybe he logged them in a separate partition.
I checked. There's nothing there.
Whatever this is, steiner found a way to Bury it
so the dni scrapers couldn't find it.
That's why they pay you the big bucks.
All good?
Yeah.
- Agent Mitchell? - Ambassador.
Nice to meet you. This is agent Tyler booth.
- Hi. - Hi.
I'm afraid I don't have much time.
I'm on my way to a meeting.
We'll walk with you.
We have a couple of questions about David steiner.
There isn't really much I can share.
My work with Dr. Steiner was very sensitive.
Well, we all have the same security clearance, right?
I still don't have the authority
to read you in to the particulars.
It's possible steiner was targeted by a foreign power
because of your work together.
We need to know who might be after him.
Just give us a hemisphere.
All right, you don't want to talk about his assignment,
that's fine.
You guys spent a lot of time together.
Did you notice any changes in his behavior lately?
No. He was focused, like always.
Not suicidal?
David?
Definitely not.
He could be intense, but that was only because
he was passionate about the work.
Right.
What was your relationship like outside of work?
Meaning what?
I mean, did we socialize?
Yeah.
If you could call it that.
Sometimes work spilled over after office hours.
I'm sorry, that's all the time that I have.
But if you have any additional questions,
please leave them with my assistant.
Ok, we appreciate your time, ambassador.
- They're banging. - Absolutely.
Hey, so I pulled the last five years
of David's government financial statements.
All above board, no suspicious activity.
But look at that.
What am I looking at?
Well, he refinanced his mortgage
six months before he disappeared,
which wouldn't be suspicious on its own.
But look at the filing.
He refinanced with a new loan company,
leveraging an inflated appraisal and a high ltv
for a much larger loan.
He then cashed out the difference.
It's almost $850,000.
That's a hell of a loan
to take out with a government salary.
His wife okayed that?
Well, the mortgage was only under David's name.
Carolyn didn't sign it.
- And where did the money go? - That's the thing.
I can't find it.
The cash was never deposited back
into any of his existing accounts.
It's just gone.
Is it possible that steiner was planning to defect?
Because with the amount of intelligence he had,
I mean, it wouldn't be hard to find a buyer.
If he was selling state secrets,
he wouldn't need a nest egg.
Either way, something tells me
he didn't go into that river.
All right, let's say he didn't.
How'd he get down that mountain?
Ok, so David disappeared here,
on an overlook off the grauhorn trail.
The rest of his family was a half a click
up the trail, here.
According to initial statements,
David was out of sight for five minutes.
That's not nearly enough time to get down that trail.
No, not on the same route.
But check this out.
There's an alpine line that runs the Ridge.
It's closed because of rockfall,
but I'll bet that cable is still installed,
but just requires some gear.
Well, steiner did spend months in Switzerland,
so he had time to map out every possible exit route.
Ok, so he dropped the bag, hiked over to the pass
where he left some gear stashed,
and used that to get down?
When local police were looking for a body,
he could have walked right past them.
He faked his own death.
Wouldn't that be something?
I have tried every backdoor,
but I still can't find the files.
Can I try something?
I love it when you say that.
It's possible David could have buried
the data in the slack space between file allocations.
A psychologist knew how to do all that?
He spent enough time in the heads of spies.
Maybe he started thinking like one.
If I run a forensic imager, it should be able to read
the unallocated disk space.
Got it.
Looks like steiner used a hex editor
to hide encrypted data in the system driver.
What's he burying under all that armor?
Case files?
I don't think dni knew about this.
I finally cracked the encrypted data
on David's laptop.
The files contain dozens of personal photos,
mostly of one woman.
Sending the images over now.
20 bucks it's our ambassador.
It's Olivia.
Man.
Wait. Who's that again?
His best friend's daughter.
So based on their messages, it does seem like
David and Olivia were dating for over a year
before he came out to Switzerland.
All the metadata on the photos was scrubbed.
We don't know when they were taken.
Come on, you really think he waited till she was 18?
Well, even if he did, the manipulation started
way before that.
David used the same playbook for turning spies.
He was building rapport, identifying vulnerabilities,
isolating support.
Except this time, he used his playbook
to groom a teenage girl.
She's 19.
That's the same age as my daughter.
Look at this, from David.
It says, "you are not just some fleeting passion for me."
"You are the person who makes me feel truly seen.
"Stay patient. Stay grounded.
We're almost there."
God, what a piece of work.
Sounds like they were planning
on running away together.
How does this track with his disappearing act?
There's less red flags if they stagger it.
He gets to disappear first, sets up somewhere sunny,
and then after the dust settles, she joins him.
David gets to pretend all the intel died with him.
You think Olivia's known where he is this whole time?
I don't know.
Let's go find out.
God.
Please don't let my parents see those.
They won't.
But we need you to start being honest with us.
Did David make you take these pictures?
No, he didn't make me.
I mean, he asked me to take them, but I wanted to.
He's my... Boyfriend, I guess.
At least he was.
How long was this going on for?
A couple months.
But it wasn't always like that.
At first, it was just talking.
Then it turned into flirting, then... Yeah.
Did anyone else know?
No.
My dad would freak out, obviously.
We had to keep it a secret.
We read your texts.
You two were planning on running away together.
David said stuff like that all the time.
It took me a while to realize he didn't mean it.
What changed?
I don't know.
He was different in the beginning.
Patient.
But it was like the more I gave him,
the less interested he became.
God, you must think I'm so stupid.
We think you're young.
And David took advantage of that.
You don't have to cover for him anymore, ok?
I'm not.
I don't know where he is.
And I don't care what happens to him.
He started sleeping with someone else anyway.
- Who? - Some lady.
The night before he disappeared,
I saw him kissing her.
And I tried to confront him.
And he yelled at me like
like I was some dumb kid.
I guess that's all I ever was to him.
Can you describe this other woman?
No need.
I'd like to circle back with siffert about the steel tariff
that he filed a complaint against.
I just want to make sure that it all works out.
Excuse me, agent Mitchell. I'm in the middle of something.
You'll have to schedule with my assistant.
Sure, I'll just go ask her how long you've been sleeping
with David steiner.
Ok, this is completely unprofessional.
You come in here, making unfounded accusations?
You were ID'd by the 19-year-old
that he's dating on the side.
So I'd think twice about whose secrets you're keeping.
David and I were involved romantically.
But obviously, I had no idea about... that.
When did it start?
Not long after he came to work here in Bern.
To recruit an asset?
I can't confirm without an official sign-off.
Ambassador, either we are going
to have this conversation right now,
or I'm going to submit a formal request.
And then everything regarding your relationship with David
is going to go on the record.
Do you want to do that?
Ok.
Dni was targeting a defector at the Chinese embassy.
I had the connection.
David had the profile.
We spent a lot of long hours together.
I had just gotten out of a bad relationship,
and David was charming.
I know how this sounds, but I fell in love with him.
Did you know he was married?
David told me it was over.
He wanted us to have a life together.
At least that's what he said.
Ok.
You got played. We get it.
If you have any idea where he is,
we need to know now.
I don't know.
I don't want to know.
It's becoming very clear that he was the worst mistake
I've ever made.
That's like the tenth time.
Who is that? Is that Ella?
Please tell me you guys aren't back together.
No, that is done.
It was the parole board.
My birth father applied for a commuted sentence.
How long's he been in?
Total? 20 years.
Got out a few times, but he'd always go right back in.
I have no idea how he conned his way into an early release.
They might ask me to talk.
Are you up for that?
What would I even say?
"He was abusive and he made my life hell"?
Well, they can't force you to appear.
Then what?
Then he walks, after everything he did to me
and my mom.
Ulry bell on?
Oui?
You called in a tip about a missing person?
Yes.
The American.
I thought it was strange.
Don't get many tourists down here.
And then I saw it on the news.
When was this?
Two nights ago.
He paid cash.
Can you describe this man?
I can do better.
Camera.
Looks pretty good for a dead guy.
Amanda, talk to me.
We've been trying to construct a map
of David's movements based on the sighting in grisons.
Switzerland has pretty strict privacy laws,
so our coverage is limited.
But we were able to patch together footage
from a few public cameras.
He left the grocer at 4:27 pm, headed east down crusch,
then turned onto strasse hoben at 4:31 pm.
There are only a few rental properties in that area,
but if we limit the scope to rentals that started
in the last six months,
there's a chalet at the edge of town.
Looks like the current tenant is unlisted.
Rent is paid in cash.
Sending you the address now.
David steiner!
Clear.
David steiner, FBI!
- Right? - Yeah.
Wes.
That's not fake dead.
That's dead dead.
Based off lividity, I'd say he's been dead
for just over 48 hours.
- Same day he disappeared? - Yep.
He didn't make it very far.
Cause of death?
We'll need a full autopsy to be sure,
but blunt force trauma is the most likely cause.
Did he have any defensive wounds?
It doesn't appear so.
Thank you.
Good chance that's our murder weapon.
This whole scene's a mess.
We can rule out any foreign agents.
No way this was a pro hit.
Yeah, this is personal.
Ooh, check it out. Sim card.
It's damaged, but maybe the hub can pull something off of that.
Whoa.
William Rosenberg, a recently naturalized citizen of Malta.
You know, Malta's one of the only eu countries
where you can buy your own citizenship?
With that and the nest egg, he's got everything he needs
to start a new life.
Stuffed at the 1-yard line.
I-I don't understand.
How did he get to grisons?
I thought the cliffs... it was staged.
What?
We found evidence that suggests
that David planned to fake his own death
and assume a new identity.
N... no, that's ridiculous.
You must have gotten something wrong.
Carolyn, he was planning to leave you and your sons.
No.
No, David loved our family.
He loved me.
He would never do anything like that.
- There is more. - God.
David was having affairs with multiple women.
Why are you telling me this?
What do you want from me?
I know this is a lot, and I'm really sorry,
but we just need to know where you were the night
that your husband was killed.
You come here and you just
you blow up my whole life,
and now you're going to accuse me of murder?
Look, we have to ask.
I was here. I was here with my children.
And I was trying to figure out how I was going to live
without a man
who apparently had already decided to abandon me.
We're going to need a full timeline.
Fine.
You'll get it.
But if you don't mind, right now,
I need to be with my boys,
unless, of course, you two want to be the ones to tell them
that their father's never coming back.
We appreciate the help, commissioner.
Of course.
Although we could be of greater use
if fedpol was formally briefed on the details of the case.
I think we got it covered, but we'll keep you in the loop.
I-I should take this.
- Hello? - Wesley Mitchell?
Formerly Wesley bartlett?
Speaking.
Hi. My name is Marcus crosse.
I'm an officer for the board of parole in California.
We've been trying to get a hold of you
in regards to your father, Dean bartlett.
He's applied for commutation of sentence.
The board will be reviewing his case next week.
All right.
As one of the victims on file,
you have a right to speak to the board
and voice any objection to his release.
Ok, how would that work? I'm halfway around the world.
We can patch you in remotely.
Then hell yeah, I'll be there.
I will be in touch.
Look at this.
The hub cracked that sim card from the crime scene.
Looks like they managed to extract
the data from its memory.
Conrad sent David over 20 texts the night he died.
He found out about David and Olivia and was pissed.
Hold on. Look at all these time stamps.
These were sent after David disappeared on the mountain.
So while everyone else was running around
with search parties looking for a body
Conrad was sending threats to a dead man.
Would you care to explain why you were
sending text messages to someone
who was already presumed dead?
I knew he wasn't.
He's too much of a narcissist to ever kill himself.
So how did you find out about his relationship with Olivia?
Relationship?
David's known her since she was born.
He was at her christening.
That's not a relationship.
You're right.
He abused her.
I found out about it that night.
After we got back from the mountain,
Olivia was in pieces.
Didn't make sense.
So I went through her phone,
put it together pretty quick.
And then you went after him?
I sure thought about it.
I never laid a hand on him.
That would have hurt Olivia more than him.
I figure she's been through enough.
Amanda, I've been trying to confirm
the timeline that Carolyn gave us,
but something is not adding up.
I accessed the resort's Wi-Fi servers
to pull up any proximity data for Bluetooth devices
registered to the steiner suite.
Carolyn's phone rssi was at negative 30 dbm until 8:00 pm,
and then it disconnected.
She went out of range.
She wasn't in the resort when David was killed.
Hey, Finn. Is your mom here?
What's going on?
Well, you lied to us, Carolyn.
That timeline you gave us was full of holes.
I... I don't know what you're talking about.
Listen, either you tell us what we already know happened,
or we're going to get fedpol in here
to turn the whole place upside down.
- She didn't do anything! - Shh. It's ok.
Carolyn, come on.
Don't you think these kids have been through enough?
Last chance.
I just wanted him to come home.
I get it.
I didn't... I didn't mean to hurt him.
Mom?
Come here, baby.
You got this?
David was having an affair.
I suspected it for a while.
And, yeah, it wasn't the first time.
So, when he disappeared,
I figured he probably was with his... his mistress.
So I... I went there to confront him.
Where?
The house that he had in zernez.
I found the address on a receipt in his coat pocket.
I just... I had a feeling.
And I was right.
Where was the receipt from?
Some food delivery place.
I just wanted to convince him to come back.
And David, he... he got so angry.
He just... he grabbed my arms and...
He threw me to the ground.
And I... I thought he was going to kill me.
So I just... I... I pushed him.
And he hit his head against that wood stove.
You pushed him?
Yes.
I thought you were on the ground.
I was. Yes.
And, then I got up.
And David tried to hit me again.
So I pushed him.
And then he hit his head. There just was
there was just so much blood everywhere.
Ok.
Will you sit tight for a minute?
We'll be right back.
What do you think?
Well, she described the scene exactly as it was
except for the scratch marks.
She confessed to something that never happened
because she's not the one that killed David.
So who is she covering for?
We confirmed everyone's alibi.
The baumanns were in their suite.
And ambassador Marlee was all the way in Bern.
It's the kid.
- Finn? - Never confirmed his alibi.
It's him.
Carolyn would never risk being taken away from the kids
unless it was to protect one of them.
He's only 15.
A 15-year-old can cause a lot of damage if he's pushed to it.
FBI.
We need to talk to Finn.
Absolutely not.
He's a suspect in an active murder investigation.
He's a minor.
You can't interview him without a parent present.
And you just took his mother away in handcuffs.
So if you want to talk to Finn,
you're going to have to do it in front of Carolyn.
They're shafting us.
We're going to have to find a workaround.
What if we didn't?
I mean, Carolyn's ready to take the fall for this.
What if we just let her?
We don't get to choose who the suspect is.
Switzerland is the wrong place to try a case like this.
Last year, the Swiss parliament voted to close a loophole
in the juvenile penal code.
Under 18's can now be sentenced to life in prison.
Right.
Commissioner muller.
I heard we have a suspect.
Yeah, there's someone we like for it,
but there's no DNA match at the crime scene.
So you need a confession?
Ideally, but he's a minor.
His dad's dead and his mom's an accomplice.
Details are complicated.
- Understood. - Say we do get a confession.
What happens then?
Because we heard you guys throw the book at kids his age.
Normally, yes,
but Mr. Steiner was not a Swiss citizen.
And considering some of the more sordid details,
I'd rather keep our hands clean of this whole mess.
So he's ours.
Once you have a confession, my recommendation will be
to extradite back to the U.S.
I'll need approval from my superiors,
but I expect they'll want to leave American problems
to the Americans.
I have an idea.
I might hate myself for it, but.
Carolyn, I'm Megan garretson with europol.
Look, I understand what you're trying to do here.
It's admirable.
But unfortunately, we just got the lab results back.
Finn's DNA was found at the crime scene.
He's going to be arrested and processed.
Here's how it looks.
Finn snuck away from the resort to hunt down his father.
That's premeditation.
He used a brick to bash his father's skull in.
That's felony assault.
He left his father bleeding out on the floor.
That's murder.
Then he came home and convinced you to lie for him.
- That's conspiracy. - That's not what happened.
Maybe, but that is what
the Swiss police will say happened.
Unless you tell us otherwise,
you are going to be charged as an accessory.
And Finn will spend the rest of his life in prison.
Look, I know you're trying to protect your son.
But only the truth will save Finn now.
I've worked for europol for 15 years.
It is a lot easier to try these cases with a home advantage.
But if you don't help us get Finn back to the states,
there's a good chance you'll never see him again.
Ok. Ok.
Finn found out about David and Olivia.
They snuck away at the beginning of the trip,
and Finn followed them.
That's how he knew about the house.
And he just... he just went there
to try and convince his dad to come back.
And David, he got in his face, and then
Finn, he was terrified.
How did David die?
It was an accident.
David came after Finn, and Finn just... he just
he just pushed him.
And David fell, and he hit his head.
And Finn, he just... he called me, crying.
I just went there to get him.
Please.
I promised him I would protect him.
You... you have to let me protect him, please.
Please, David... this is David's fault.
David, he started all of this.
He ruined our lives.
Carolyn.
I need you to write all of this down
in your statement, ok?
Give us your statement.
You can do it.
Nice work.
Yeah, this job really sucks sometimes.
Excellent work, agent Mitchell.
We'll take it from here.
Switzerland is grateful for your assistance
in apprehending a violent offender.
Wait.
What do you mean, take it from here?
Fedpol intends to prosecute within its own jurisdiction,
rather than extradite back to the U.S.
We have preeminent authority.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold up.
The last time we talked, you said
you were going to extradite.
I said I need approval. It wasn't granted.
I'm just as surprised as you.
Like hell you are. You knew that going into it.
That's why you pushed for the confession,
to make your job easier.
I'm afraid the decision has already been made.
Our agents will be here within the hour to transport.
We just got played.
I'll... I'll reach out to our liaison officer,
see if they can enforce the cooperation agreement.
But we might not have much pull here.
You know what?
I think we know someone who does.
Agent Mitchell.
This is starting to feel like harassment.
We found David's killer.
- Good. - Yeah.
Except he's a 15-year-old kid
and he's scared out of his mind.
It's David's son, Finn.
And now he's facing a life sentence
because of the mess your ex-boyfriend made.
I'm afraid I really can't do anything about it.
You have pull with every Swiss official
from here to Zurich.
Not anymore.
I've already turned in my resignation.
I head back to the states tomorrow
to see if I can salvage what's left of my career.
Ok. Make the call today.
Look, I know you got burned here,
but some of this is on you.
You screwed around with David
even though you knew he had a family,
and Finn got caught in the fallout.
Don't you think you owe this kid something?
Switzerland agreed to extradite Finn
back to the states.
He's going to be tried in juvenile court.
So what happens then?
Well, I can't make any promises.
But if he pleads to manslaughter 2,
sentencing could be lenient,
likely court-mandated therapy until he turns 18.
Ok.
Ok, so that's good, right?
Yes.
Ok.
So what about me?
Am I sentenced here or... you're free to go.
So these officers here,
they're going to bring you to the airport,
where they're going to hand you over to a U.S. marshal.
And then when you land stateside,
you're going to be held at a juvenile facility
until you're processed.
You understand?
Yeah.
I didn't mean to kill him.
I know.
But I'm not sorry that he's dead
after everything he did to my mom.
We're better off without him.
Ok.
- Mom! - Sweetheart?
Come here.
Hold on!
It's ok.
My baby, I love you so much.
You know, it probably would have been
better for everyone if David had died in that river.
I wonder if he had any idea how much damage
he was going to cause.
He wouldn't even care.
Guys like that never do.
What are you going to do? Are you going to go back
to the extraterrestrial squad or what?
Yeah. Mars needs me.
Dude, don't do that. Wfo is a bunch of suits.
They're going to turn you into Bobby bureau.
You got a better idea?
Come back to Budapest.
Tdy slot's open. Save you the jet lag.
It's pelican bay.
They just gave me a time for a hearing.
- When? - Tuesday.
Decide what you're going to do yet?
I'm going to Bury him.
Good evening, Mr. Mitchell.
The commutation board considers many factors,
but a victim's statement can do a lot to sway opinion.
You'll have ten minutes to state your reasons
why you believe Dean bartlett should not
receive a commuted sentence.
Got it.
Will Dean be on the call?
He will be. That is his right.
But he is not allowed to speak to you directly.
All right.
I'm going to move you into the main room now.
You can keep your camera off
while the board makes opening remarks.
I'll let you know when it's time for your statement.
Good evening, everyone.
Today, the California board of parole
will be hearing statements with regards
to the commutation of sentence for Dean Anthony bartlett.
