𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Ah, reading about skydiving is surprisingly very boring.
Hope what you're doing is a lot more interesting.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Oh, yeah, I have sharpened every pencil in the precinct.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Thank u.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
So, how's the case going?
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Mm, sorry, partner, you're out on this one.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Okay, if u don't tell me about this case, I am going to make u get mani-pedis with Aaliyah.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Have u ever heard of Noah Hawkes?
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
No.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
He's one of Forbes' wealthiest men under 35.
He went skydiving with his wife.
Her chute didn't open, neither did the backup.
𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬
That's because the parachute was definitely tampered with.
Hey, Ro.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Hey. I didn't hear anything.
𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬
Based on the latent bacteria on the rip cord, it was cut 16 to 20 hours before the jump.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
All right, I'll look into Noah Hawkes' alibi.
𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬
You may want to check if he's left-handed.
From the angle of the cut, I'm 99% sure that the doer was a lefty.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
But I did hear that.
𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬
That's my cue.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Okay, Tionne, u need to let me work on this case, or I am going to get myself in trouble.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Sorry, Thomas, Dre laid down the law.
You're to know nothing, nada, zero.
Zip.
ALEX APPOINTMENT
𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱
I'm mortified.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
If I'd known it was "towel-only" option...
𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱
Oh, God, oh, God.
It just... it started to feel like old times and I got carried away.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
You know, when that towel dropped, I almost got carried away, too, so...
Look, Alex, I'm sorry...
𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱
No, I know.
This is all so strange.
I mean, u knew me better than anyone.
Before or since.
I used to think I knew you better than anyone.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
You did know me.
But I am a completely different person now.
𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱
Who isn't?
Lisa, I admit, with u back, it's all so confusing.
I'm beginning to remember my old self, and I want that life back so badly.
I guess the question is, do u?
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Want to go back in time to the way we used to be?
Yeah, yeah, I do.
But... a lot has changed.
And I guess we both have a few new secrets, yeah?
𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱
She saw me, didn't she?
You could never lie to me, Lisa.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Your handler, Rozonda, she caught me taking stuff from the hospital.
I told her that u... weren't into anything like that.
𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱
Actually I am.
Kind of.
You know how u said that she u wanted your old life back?
Or parts of it anyway.
I have something to show u.
And no, it's not my linen collection this time.
GOING THROUGH A STORE
𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱
Hi.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Hello.
Okay, I never pegged u as a drug lord, but this...
I have my doubts.
𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱
It'll all make sense in a moment.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Seeing a lot of sick people
What is this place?
Like a care unit?
𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱
It's for people who can't pay or can't get to another facility.
There's still a lot of people our there without jobs, without any insurance.
They fall through the cracks.
Okay, Mrs. Voluska?
You can take a seat in there.
I'll be right with u.
Kid
Um, Nurse Alex?
Who's she?
𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱
Um, just a...
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Just a friend.
𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱
Doctor.

PRECINCT
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Mr. Hawkes, did anyone besides u and your wife have access to her parachute?
𝐍𝐨𝐚𝐡
Am I being interrogated?
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
No, sir, I'm just trying to assess the facts.
𝐍𝐨𝐚𝐡
The facts are that Lisa and I pack our own chutes.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
And the morning of the jump, nothing was out of place?
𝐍𝐨𝐚𝐡
No one touches them but us.
I know this is difficult, I only have a few more questions to ask u.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
You're with Noah Hawkes, right?
I bet you're a one sugar?
𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧
Black.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Ah.
𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧
I'm on the Neanderthal diet.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
What is the Neanderthal diet?
𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧
Nothing a caveman wouldn't eat.
I'm ready to kill somebody for a carb.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Rozonda Thomas.
𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧
Pam Davis, CFO of Hawkes Worldwide.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Ah.
So how is Noah taking it?
𝐏𝐚𝐦
He's a wreck.
Plus we're in the middle of an IPO and we spent the entire day before Lisa's death, uh, in marathon meetings.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Wow, sounds stressful.
𝐏𝐚𝐦
Yeah.
Tears me up to see Noah like this.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Did he have a happy marriage?
𝐏𝐚𝐦
Storybook.
Outside of work, they did everything together.
𝐍𝐨𝐚𝐡
Lisa and I, we loved living on the edge.
And we knew with that risk comes a cost.
I just never dreamed the price would be so high.
𝐏𝐚𝐦
When somebody becomes that integral to your life and suddenly they're gone, it makes u wonder who u are without them.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Yeah, I have some personal experience in that department.
𝐏𝐚𝐦
Thanks for the coffee.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Yeah.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
And if we need to talk with u further?
𝐍𝐨𝐚𝐡
I work the rest of the afternoon, then tonight there's this event I have to be at.
That I obviously don't want to be at.
𝐏𝐚𝐦
But that you can't miss.
𝐍𝐨𝐚𝐡
Exclusive billionaire boys' club kind of deal at the Dylan Club.
You are more than welcome to stop by if you need to pull me aside for a few minutes.
𝐏𝐚𝐦
Call me whenever-- I'll track him down.
Leaving out
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
We should go to the Dylan Club.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
What, and party with a suspect?
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
No, we'll go under the guise of working on the case.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
When in reality we're going...?
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
About the case.
And because you and I are both attractive women who shouldn't be wasting our youth on available men.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
So what, you want to get dressed up, put on smoky eyes and fall in love?
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Is that it? That's it exactly.
And, look, if we happen to catch a break in the case, it's two birds with one stone.
Preferably a diamond.
The big question is what to wear.
