He's the man

With a plan

that'll work for you and me

He's no fool, he's for you

He's our favorite son

Hurry up, hurry up...

I hope I didn't

keep you waiting.

I came as soon

as I got your message.

My cell phone doesn't

get reception at my house.

I always wanted

a son.

Do you think State Homicide

is holding back information?

Couldn't say.

Do you feel up to answering

a few questions?

I've talked at length

with my daughter,

but she and my

grandson need time.

I understand, sir.

When was the last time

your daughter saw her husband?

He left about 5:
30

yesterday morning.

Was that unusual?

Well, not lately.

My son-in-law's been putting in

a great deal of time

at work.

He's been

preoccupied.

We should know more by now.

In an investigation like this,

particularly with the death

of police officers, they

will be concerned that details

would alert and inform

whoever did this.

If somebody wanted to kill

two police officers

and they wanted to

get away with it,

why would they

be so blatant?

Why wouldn't they make it

look like an accident?

I would only be speculating.

Well, go ahead. Speculate.

I can't, Mr. Hansen.

I'm aware of the difficulties

we've had in the past, but...

I'd appreciate it

if you'd call me Carter.

When did you first hear

about the explosion?

from State Homicide.

And you called Hasty.

Well, Hasty

already knew,

so we decided to go

out there together.

Do you know of anything specific

that your son-in-law

was working on?

No.

He kept so much inside.

I'm gonna need your help,

Carter.

I will have to talk

to your daughter.

Will you tell me when

you think she's up to it?

Okay.

I know you're a good

cop, Chief Stone.

Get the man who killed my son.

There were times

I hated him.

Why did you hate him?

Because he wasn't me.

You mean because

you weren't him.

He had my job.

Did you ever wish

he were dead?

Yes.

Apparently, I wasn't shy

about telling people

I didn't like him.

I thought I only thought it.

How do you feel

about that?

How do I feel

about that?

I didn't like him.

He didn't make me lost my job.

That was solely

my accomplishment.

Okay.

Are you gonna

obsess about this?

Yes.

Because you're

guilty about

how you feel?

'Cause I'm a cop.

Good.

That's relatively healthy.

Thank you.

I've lost my people.

What happened?

Suitcase didn't

like Butler,

so he quit.

And that's

your fault?

What about Rose?

She was my friend,

and I lost touch.

Did she like Butler?

No.

So she quit.

Apparently.

And that's your fault, too?

Did I ever

tell you that

you have a hyperactive

sense of responsibility?
