This has all the hallmarks

of a gang killing.

FEMALE REPORTER 1: We're

gonna take you now live

to the Metro Police

press conference,

where Detective Thompson

is taking questions.

THOMPSON:
Still very early at this

point. We're not ruling anything out.

Thank you all.

We'll be with you when we have

more information. Thank you.

(SIRENS BLARING)

Excuse me. Excuse me. Do you

know if Detective Thompson's here?

No, I think he just left.

(PANTING)

- Do they have any idea who did it?

- I doubt it.

You know, these guys

usually tend to close ranks.

Who? Which guys?

Whatever gang he's in.

They'll just hide him

until no one cares anymore.

Why is everyone saying

this is a gang thing?

It's D.C.

(SIREN BLARING)

(DOOR CLOSES)

Addison!

Addison, why the hell

didn't you call me back?

- I paged you twice.

- (GROANS)

Something happened.

(STUTTERS) I know what happened.

It's all over the news. And

I know you go to that place.

What?

Was he a friend of yours?

Oh, no.

I'm sorry.

Son. I'm sorry.

I'm just gonna... I'm just gonna go to bed.

Okay.

REPORTER:
This is a

community and neighborhood

that is concerned about the

killing of a 17-year-old.

THOMPSON:
Well, this community

should know they can rest assured

that the Metro D.C.

Police Department

is doing everything in our power

to find the people who did this.

- And we will find them.

- FIONA:
Phoebe?

Honey? You almost ready?

I thought I'd take you to school.

No. I can... I can drive myself. It's fine.

- Just, please.

- Mom, can you leave it on? Please?

No. It's really... It's not good

for you to obsess about this.

I'm not obsessing.

Listen, I called Denise last

night, and we both agreed

that you should see her for just a

couple of sessions, that it would be...

Mom, you're overreacting. Just drop it.

I'm not overreacting.

I just think it's a

very traumatic experience

- and I think that you need to...

- I'm not traumatized.

Well, I am! I'm traumatized.

Just call her! Okay?

I've had experience in this, you know?

I've learned the hard way

that you really can't pretend

that this never happened.

You need to talk to somebody.

And, clearly,

you don't want it to be me.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

THEO:
Addy.

Yeah.

Hey. Morning.

Hey, Dad.

If you want to stay home today, it's okay.

You know, I get it.

No, it's fine. I'm going in.

Well, then, why don't I drive you?

No, I can drive myself.

(SIGHS) Mmm...

You... You all right?

Not really, but...

You want to talk about it?

No.

Thanks for this, by the way.

Oh, yeah. I'm glad you

could find a use for it.

You know, when I pulled it out of the box,

I found all this footage of you,
