It's not your average street

thug, I'll tell you that much.

I'm going to check the security cameras.

Why don't you go up to the

mayor's office, see what you find?

Everything is fine for the first hour.

Then, this.

My guess is the storm

took the system out.

That's pretty convenient,

don't you think?

Not a single camera rolling,

two vics were killed?

No. Power goes out. Camera goes out.

What about the traffic

cameras? Anybody check those?

Not yet. Okay, well get on that.

If you find something, contact me ASAP.

You find anything?

Who's this?

Ah, that's James Durant.

Mayor's Chief of Staff,

his right hand man,

His go to pretty much for everything.

Any reason why he'd want his boss dead?

None that I could imagine.

It's not going to hurt to ask

him a few questions though.

I say we go through procedure.

I'll start by running a background check

On any military in the area.

All right.

I'll do a search for anybody

With a background in security, too.

This system was breached far too easily.

Yeah.

Okay.

Morning, Grace.

Mom? How are you feeling?

I always feel better when I see my boy.

Now, how do you really feel?

Well, there are good days and bad days.

This just isn't one of the good days.

I'm sure tomorrow is going to be better.

You need to find out who killed Stan.

And you need to find out why.

I'm way ahead of you, trust me.

Good.

So why don't you tell me about

that new partner of yours?

What's she like?

I don't even know how you know this.

I have my sources.

I'm sure you do.

There's, there's nothing to

say. Really. That's too bad.

There's not. Okay, Mom.

All right, I got to go.

Try and get some sleep, all right?

John?

Be careful on this one.

I'm always careful, Mom.

I love you.

I love you.

Try and get some sleep.

Okay.

Let's see what we got.

Come on, baby. Daddy needs an A.

Hello?

Hey, man. Yeah.

Uh, not much. Just

downloading some stuff

From outside City Hall

for my time lapse project.

Uhhh, yeah, okay. One

beer, but that's it.

Okay, maybe two.

Yeah. Okay, I'm going

to leave in a minute.

I'll see you soon.

Okay. Bye.

Son of a...

Come on. Show me your

face, show me your face.

Yeah, it's Archer.

Hello?

Hello?

What the hell are you still doing here?

I could ask you the same thing.

Come on.

You work too hard.

Let's go get a beer. Take the edge off.

I'm going to stick around here.

Run through this one more time.

Just see if there's something I missed.

Beer? Security tapes?

Beer wins this one, boss.

Well, you enjoy yourself.

Hey, Tommy.

Can I grab two beers

And a shot of Jamey, please?

Finally gave it up, huh?

Yeah. Yeah, I just needed a break.

So, uh,
