immediately.

[Gunshot]

Right.

And you called the ambulance

shortly after,

is that correct?

[Gunshots]

[Detective]

Sounds about right.

[Phone buzzes]

[Faint giggling]

- Here you go.

- Thank you, but you know what?

I'm not drinking

these days.

This is a good picture.

That's the last one

she ever took.

This law student renting out

a room at the Turners'

stumbled upon something I think

you might find interesting.

It's too soon

to say exactly,

but the bones she found

appear to belong

to a small child.

Yeah, they're being

tested now.

Could be tied into one of

your earlier cases, pal.

Hey.

I'll understand if you're

not ready to come back.

[Doorbell rings]

Detective Silva.

I've been assigned

to your case.

I'm Rachel.

Please, come in.

Sorry for the intrusion.

No, not at all.

Thanks for coming out.

I've been a little uneasy

the past few nights.

Hopefully we can put

an end to that soon.

Where are my manners?

Would you like

something to drink?

- Lemonade? Water?

- No thanks. I'm okay.

Can you show me where

you found the remains?

Yeah. Right this way.

It's just over there.

How much longer

do you think this will take?

Because I have to get

to class.

Here, just give me a call

at your convenience.

- Okay.

- You don't mind

if I stick around here

for awhile, do you?

No, not at all.

Stay as long

as you need to.

Okay.

[Speaking Spanish]

- Hi.

- Hi.

- Rachel.

- Hi. Rachel.

- Nice to meet you.

- He was just leaving.

- Oh, okay.

- [Speaking Spanish]

[Speaking Spanish]

Bye. How'd you do?

You don't want to know.

Damn. Damn.

You studied

all week for this.

- I know.

- You suck.

Thank you.

I think it drops me

a full letter grade

in that class.

That's all right.

You still got

that mock case to work on.

You can bring it up then.

- I hope so.

- Easy.

Got any plans tonight?

You want to work

on that case?

Do I have a choice now?

I guess not.

Let's see. Do you want to stop

by my place around seven?

I should be home by then.

Yeah, yeah.

Seven is great, yeah.

Okay. Well, I got to head back

to class right now, so...

- Have fun.

- Thank you. I will.

You be good.

- Seven o'clock.

- Seven.

It's a date.

Deborah, a slave working

at the Ferguson Sugar Factory,

clubbed a man

as he approached her

in her cabin.

The man turned out

to be her master...

Deborah was tried for murder

shortly thereafter,

she would stand trial

and be sentenced

to death by noose.

Ouch.

Man.

- Oh, thank you.

- You're welcome.

All right, so...

are we approaching this

with the intent

to get our would-be

client set free

or are we going to try

and get him a lesser charge?
