10분전에 했어야할 질문이 있어요

 

이 수갑들, 정말 안 풀리면 어떻게 해요?

 

풀리지 않는 수갑이 새로 나왔다고 발표해야죠

 

세제가 "새롭게 개선되었다"라는
광고랑 동급의 선언이죠

 

판매 전략일 뿐

 

진짜 새로운 건 아니에요

 

내 말은, 수갑 차기 전에 푸는 방법을

 

알아냈어야했다는 말이에요

 

이 연습의 목적은
실제 상황과의 유사함이죠

 

납치됐을 때

 

범인이 예행연습을
시켜줄 거라고 생각해요?

 

오

 

거의 됐는데

 

수류탄과 달리, 수갑에 거의 다는 없어요

스투이페산트 기념병원이네요

 

예전 직장이요

 

괜찮다면, 음성 메일 틀어줄게요

 

스피커폰으로 할까요
비밀번호가 뭐죠?

 

내가 할게요, 고마워요

 

이 사람이야

 

애비 캠벨

 

인공수정 클리닉의 기술직이야

 

그저께 밤에, 야근한다고
동료에게 말했다고 했어

 

남편이, 우리병원 의사인데

 

집에 오지 않았다고 했어

 

차는 여전히 차고에 있고

 

아무도 행방을 몰라

 

경찰에 신고했어요?

 

이미 다녀갔어, 조사중이야

 

하지만 네 생각이 났고

 

가족 중에 탐정이 있으니까

 

아무 말 없이 떠났을 가능성은요?

 

2살짜리 딸이 있어. 그 앨
두고 떠났을 것 같지는 않아

 

착하고, 침착하고 존경받을만한 사람이거든

 

존경받는 사람들도 아무 말 없이 가출을 하기도 해요

 

내 말은, 성격에 맞지 않는다는 뜻이고

 

많은 사람들이 걱정하고 있어요

 

네 생각은 어떠니?

 

도와줄 수 있어?

 

여기가 일터였어요

 

낮동안 현미경을 들여다보며
인생을 보내는 곳이군요

 

밤에도요

 

애비의 야근에 아무도 의문을 제기하지 않았어요

 

미국 여성의 출산 연령 증가는

 

인공수정 전문가 수요의 증가로 이어졌어요

 

이 시설의 예민함을 생각하면

 

보안 카메라가 있어야해요. 그렇죠?

 

병원의 검사실 보안은 항상 취약한 편이죠

 

몰래 빠져나갔을 수도 있어요

 

아니면 누군가 들어올 수도 있죠

 

뭐죠?

 

에밀리요

 

급하게 할 말이 있대요

 

오늘 당신의 인맥들이 다 위기에 처한건지

 

아니면 과거 상사의
도움 요청과 관련이 있을까요?

 

아뇨, 에밀리와 타마라는 서로
아는 사이가 아니에요

 

에밀리가 만나자고 해요

 

직접 만나서 얘기해야한대요

 

뭐 찾았어요?

 

애비의 작업대는 애비 혼자 쓰는데

 

매우 최근에 매우 깨끗이 청소가 됐어요

 

떠나기 전에 청소를 했나보죠

 

아마 여기서 폭행사건이 있었고

 

그 후 철저한 청소를 했어요

 

애비 캠벨과 동료들은 샘플을 모아서

 

들것으로 옮기는 버릇이 있다는 거 알아요?

 

병원 어디에서도 그런 건 본 적이 없어요

 

검사실에서만 쓰이나봐요

 

매우 최근에 사용된 증거가 있어요

 

끈적이는 바퀴로
왼쪽에 긁힌 자국이 있어요

 

애비를 밖으로 끌고 간 방법일 수도

 

복도로 이어져요. 따라가봅시다

 

흔적은 여기서 끝나요

 

이 방 알아요?

 

아뇨. 여긴 처음 와봤어요

 

외과 영역 아닌가요?

 

그런 것 같아요

 

아마도

 

이건 초음파 흡인기예요

 

이건 인간 장기네요

 

인간 장기가 많아요

 

여긴 의료 표본 준비실이군요

 

기증받은 시체를 의대용 학습
표본으로 제작하는 곳이에요

 

시체 처리에 최적의 장소죠

 

애비 캠벨은 죽었어요

 

그럴 가능성이 있겠어요

 

아뇨, 확실해요

 

좌측 상악 중절치의 틈을 봐요

 

그녀의 좌측 상악 중절치의 틈를 봐요

 

안녕, 애비 캠벨

치과 기록으로 확인했어요
이 사람은 애비 캠벨이에요

 

뭐, 남은 전부이지만

 

더 찾을 수 있을지 모르겠어요

 

범인이 고압가마에서 나머지 부분을

 

불태워 없앤 흔적을 왓슨이 찾았거든요

 

왜 뼈는 남았죠?

 

조심스런 재조립으로 봐선

 

검사실 내에서 끝내고 싶었나봐

 

잘라낸 방식은

 

말장난 할 의도는 전혀 없지만,
이번 일을 한 범인이 누구든

 

끔찍한 처리방식이군요

 

살해한 것 뿐만 아니라
해체시켜버렸어요

 

끔찍하고 숙련됐어요

 

밤새 캠벨을 해체하고 재조립한 걸로 봐선

 

전문가의 솜씨가 틀림없어요

 

의사나 간호사나

 

그 병원에 근무하는 의료진만

 

- 1000명은 넘어요
-개인 의원이나

 

전문 클리닉, 연구소에서
일하는 사람일지도 모르지

 

전화로 목이 졸려 사망했다고 말했죠?

 

이 섬뜩한 전시에서 딱
하나의 뼈가 없어요, 설골

 

여기 있어야해요

 

설골은 교살 피해자의 1/3에서 골절이 돼요

 

범행을 감추려고 없앴을 것이다

 

부러진 설골보다는 없애는 게

 

덜 의심스럽다고 생각했겠지

 

아마 애비 캠벨은 작업대에서 교살된 다음,

 

작업대에서 실험실 입구로 끌려온 것으로 추측돼요

 

몰래 다가간 이유가 있겠죠

 

아는 사이였어요

 

남편이 의사란 얘기 했던가?

 

 

Hey!

 

안녕

 

-안녕
-와줘서 고마워

 

급한 일이라면서

 

맞아. 적어도 내 생각에는

 

급한 일인지 아닌지 모르겠어?

 

솔직히, 얘기를 하는 게
맞는지도 잘 모르겠어

 

뭔데?

 

형사가 오늘아침에 집으로 날 찾아왔어

 

나한테 질문이 있다고 해서

 

괜찮다고 했지

 

들어와서 물어본 질문이
죄다 너에 대한 거였어

 

이름 얘기했어?

 

응, 명함 남기고 갔어

 

지나 코르테즈

 

여기

 

절도과, 코니 아일랜드

 

알아?

 

아니. 뭘 알고 싶어했어?

 

이상했어. 개인적인 일이었거든

 

어떻게 만났는지, 얼마나 자주 만나는지

 

네가 법을 어길만한 사람이라고 생각하는지도 물었어

 

-뭐라고?
-내 말이

 

사건 수사중이라고 했어?

 

아니. 내가 너에 대해 질문하는 이유를 물어보니까

 

자기는 말할 수가 없다고 하더라

 

조앤

 

곤란한 일 있어?

 

아니, 전혀

 

있으면, 나한테 말해도 돼. 알지?

 

에밀리. 분명 오해가 있는 거야

 

내가 알아볼게

 

닥터 캠벨, 기록에 따르면, 당신은
스투이페산트 기념병원의 종양전문의이죠?

 

네

 

병원에서 애비와 만났어요?

 

같이 일한 적은 없어요

 

직접적으로는

 

제 진료실은 사실 독립진료입니다

 

파티에서 만났어요, 공통의 친구였죠

 

언제부터 만나셨죠?

 

5년이요

 

결혼은 3년 됐어요

 

굳은살이 무척 독특하군요

 

암벽등반을 합니까?

 

아, 애비가 끌어들였어요

 

주로 실내에서 합니다

 

악력이 어마어마하겠네요

 

애비를 제압할 정도로 힘이 세고

 

해골로 분리할 정도로 의학적 지식도 있고

 

물어봐야겠네요

 

내가 아내를 죽였냐고요?

 

아니오

 

두 분 입장은 이해해요

 

하지만

 

애비가 실종됐던 날

 

클리닉 매니저와 장부를 검토하고 있었어요

 

내가 나갔던 시각을 말해줄 겁니다

 

늦은 시각이었다는 것만 기억나요

 

그럼 왜 집에 가서
아내가 없다는 걸 알았을 때

 

바로 신고하지 않았습니까?

 

애비네 직장은 사람이 부족했어요
늦게까지 일해야했죠

 

내가 집에 갈 때까지 보모에게
딸을 봐달라고 말했다고 하더군요

 

난 집에 가서

 

바로 잤어요

 

당신 결혼 생활은 행복했나요?

 

최근에요?

 

아뇨

 

정반대였어요

 

둘 사이가 안 좋았어요?

 

그 어느때보다 더 사랑했었어요

 

우리 결혼이 행복하지 않았던 이유는
아내가 죽어갔기 때문이죠

 

췌장암 4기였어요

 

다른 사람에게 알리지 않길 원했어요

 

아내에게 항암제를 줬지만, 사실은

 

희망이 없었어요

 

일년 정도 남은 상태였어요

 

우리 간호사들에게 물어봐도 됩니다

 

내 클리닉 직원들이 말해줄 겁니다

 

애비를 살리기 위해 모든 노력을 다했어요

 

죽일 필요가 없어요

 

어차피 암이 진행 중이었는데

(REBECCA BLACK - FRIDAY)

 

셜록?

 

 

 

뭐해요?

 

병원 보안카메라에 소리가 안 나와요

 

직원들의 지루한 왕래에

 

재미를 주려고 배경음악을 깔았어요

 

내가 싫어하는 벨소리를 골랐었죠

 

그래서 내가 맞불을 놓기로 했어요

 

“Friday”? 진짜로?

 

탐정인 날 자극하는 노래이기도 해요

 

개를 풀어놓는 주인에 대한 미스터리죠

 

그래서 뭐라도 찾았어요?

 

실종된 날 애비 캠벨의 행적인 별 거 없어요

 

카페테리아로 갔다가

 

검사실로 돌아오고

 

끝이에요

 

다른 날은요?

 

일주일동안 비디오에 찍힌
모든 행적을 쫓았어요

 

동료들과 논쟁이라도 있어서

 

고립되어 있길 바랐었죠

 

그래서요?

 

무척 인기가 많아 보였어요

 

전혀 분란은 없어요

 

하지만, 의심스러운 즐거움이 있긴 했어요

 

은밀해보이네요

 

병원 직원 기록에 따르면

 

외과 레지던트인 닥터 브랜포드 피셔였어요

 

닥터 피셔와 애비는 업무로 인한 접점은 없어요

 

그들의 업무영역이 겹치지 않아요

 

하지만 두 사람의 만남은 12번도 넘었어요

 

모두 병원에서 인적이 드문 곳들이었어요

 

저기는 사용하지 않는 병실이죠

 

15분동안 같이 있었고

 

옷이 구겨지고 행복해보여요

 

불륜이었군요

 

애비가 실종신고됐던 날 아침에

 

닥터 피셔는 병가를 냈어요

 

연락을 했는데

 

전화를 받지 않아요

 

유일한 주소는 사서함이었어요

 

전부 의심스러워요

 

에밀리와의 만남은 어땠어요?

 

그다지

 

경찰이 날 조사하고 다니는 이유가 뭘까요?

 

코르테즈 형사가 만난 친구는
에밀리만이 아니었군요

 

네. 오늘 다른 두명에게도 전화를 받았어요

 

형사가 찾아가서 같은 질문을 했대요

 

내가 어떤 사람인지

 

법을 어긴 적이 있는지

 

하지만 드러난 혐의는 없는 거죠

 

네

 

왓슨, 코니 아일랜드에서 절도한 적 있어요?

 

물어봐야해요

 

아뇨. 코니 아일랜드에서 절도한 적 없어요

 

코니 아일랜드에 언제 갔는지
기억도 잘 안 나요

 

-이 여자를 만나야겠군요
-그럴까요?

 

조사 타이밍이 안 좋아요

 

우리가 NYPD에 복귀하자 마자

 

절도사건에 연루됐다는 소문은 좋지 않아요

 

내가 처리할게요, 됐죠?

 

여보세요

 

홈즈씨? 네이트 캠벨입니다

 

제 번호는 어떻게 알았습니까, 닥터 캠벨?

 

스투이페산트 기념병원의
의사를 찾고 있다고 들었어요

 

브랜포드 피셔요

 

맞아요

 

행방을 말해줄 수 있어요

 

하지만 직접 만나서요

 

그리고 경찰을 데려오면 안됩니다

 

요구대로 우리만 왔어요

 

하지만 우릴 해치려든다면

 

경찰이 여기 온 걸 알게 될 겁니다

 

그럴 일 아닙니다. 들어오세요

 

그래서, 우리가 찾는 걸 도와준..

 

닥터 피셔

 

어떻게 된 일인지 당장 말해줘요

 

메세지를 듣고 놀라서,

 

네이트에게 전화를 했어요

 

이유는..

 

복잡한 일인데

 

브랜포드가 애비를 죽였을리가 없어요

 

둘이 불륜관계라는 걸 알았어요?

 

아니. 불륜이 아니야

 

닥터 피셔의 사이즈는 12이고

 

닥터 캠벨의 사이즈는 9

 

문 앞에 12사이즈의 런닝화가 있어요

 

벽에는 닥터 피셔가 상을
받는 사진이 걸려있어요

 

닥터 피셔는 여기 살아요

 

전화로는 여기가 캠벨의 집이라고 했어요

 

같이 사는 집이에요

 

둘다 애비와 결혼을 했어요

 

아니면 결혼 반지에 대해
다른 해명이 있나요?

 

요즘 신조어로 “thruple”이라고 하죠

 

3명, 1번의 결혼

 

동시에 애비와 결혼을 했군요

 

맞아요. 하지만 맹세컨데

 

우리 둘 다 아내를 죽이지 않았어요

 

우리 결혼은 비밀로 해야했어요

 

두살짜리 딸, 클로이가 있어요

 

만약 가족복지부에 신고를 하면
딸을 잃을 수도 있어요

 

직장에도 말하면 안돼요
병원은 스캔들을 좋아하지 않아요

 

모두 행복해보이네요

 

행복해요

 

행복했어요

 

우린 그냥..가족이죠

 

다른 사람들과 다르지 않아요

 

애비가 실종됐던 날의 행적에
대해 말해줄 수 있어요?

 

보스턴에 있었어요

 

아버지께서 편찮으셔서
면회 갔었어요

 

하지만 친구들도 만났어요

 

모두 내가 보스턴에 있었다고 말해줄 겁니다

 

양해해준다면, 어떻게 이..

 

결혼이 이루어졌나요?

 

브랜포드와 내가..

 

먼저였어요. 하지만 둘다 합의가 있었어요

 

말했던대로, 파티에서 애비를 만났고

 

거기에서 시작됐어요

 

애비가 흔쾌히 받아들였나요?

 

사실, 애비의 생각이었어요
경험이 있다고 했어요

 

다른 단체 결혼을 했다고요?

 

생각보다 우리 같은 결혼이 꽤 있어요

 

일부 사람들에게는 필요해요

 

애비를 위해서였어요

 

대부분은

 

예전 결혼이 안 좋았나봐요?

 

안 좋게 끝났어요

 

아내들 중 한명과 다툼이 있었어요

 

폭력적이었다는 힌트 정도였지만

 

분쟁이 있었어요

 

돈 때문에, 공동 자산이었죠

 

아직도 그 일로 소송 중이죠

 

아내들 중 한명이요?

 

이전 결혼은 몇명이었나요?

 

애비 빼고요? 5명이요

 

애비 캠벨의 전 배우자들. 모두 5명이야

 

그들은 아직 결혼을 유지 중이야

 

웨스트 에섹스의 큰 집에서 함께 살고 있어

 

각자에게 5대의 차를 보내야했지

 

우리가 기대하는 용의자의 전부죠

 

어떻게 했는지 모르겠어

 

한 사람과의 결혼생활도 제대로 못했는데

 

하지만 미국인들은 결혼의
모든 변형을 실험하고 있어요

 

오마하 부족의 자매를 포함한 일부다처부터

 

초기 모르몬교의 가부장적 일부다처를 거쳐

 

1970년대 자유연애 히피 공동체까지

 

비참한 실패를 보인 실험도 있었지만

 

대부분은 긴 생명을 유지하고 있어요

 

그래. 적어도 애비 캠벨에게는

 

이 실험은 비극적인 결말이었어

 

죽음을 맞이할 정도로

 

모두 왔어요, 별로 행복해하지 않아요

 

서로의 이야기를 조정할 수 없도록

 

따로 떨어뜨려놓는 게 좋을 것 같아요

 

그래. 5명이 합의를 할 수는 있으려나

 

애비는 특별했어요.
우리 모두 애비를 사랑했어요

 

모든 게 좋았어요
처음 1,2년동안은

 

할 말 없어요

 

하지만 이해해줘야해요, 애비는..

 

고집불통이었어요

 

오늘 오후에 딸의 축구팀 코치를 가야해요

 

제가 꼭 여기 있어야해요?

 

돈 때문이었어요
애비는 열심히 일했고

 

번 만큼 갖고 있길 원했어요

 

하지만 드니스가 전부 공동재산으로
넣어야한다고 고집했어요

 

우린 2쌍의 부부로 결혼신고를 했어요

 

돈을 아끼기 위해 같이 살아요

 

트리쉬는 우리 보모지

 

보모라고?

 

네. 맞아요

 

난 보모예요

 

약간 추해졌지

 

특히 집을 구입했을 때

 

집 때문에 일이 전부 틀어졌어요

 

애비가 유산을 받았는데, 드니스가
계약금으로 내라고 압박을 했어요

 

애비도 동의했지만,
전혀 행복해하지 않았어요

 

애가 여섯이에요
모두 협력하고 있죠

 

직업이 있는지 없는지는 중요하지 않아요

 

난 아무 말도 하지 않을 겁니다

 

내게 혐의가 있는 게 아니라면

 

언쟁은 점점 악화됐어요

 

애비가 드니스보다 훨씬 어리다는 건
별로 도움이 되지 않았고

 

잠자리 배분을 할 때가 되면

 

더 주의를 끌기는 했어요

 

끝나갈 무렵에는 애비와
드니스 사이가 더 격해졌어요

 

선을 넘었다고 생각했어요

 

다음날, 애비가 떠났어요

 

애비는 계약금을 돌려받으려고 했어요

 

하지만 돈을 주려면 집을
팔아야한다는 뜻이었어요

 

드니스는 불가능하다고 말했어요

 

무슨 일이 있었는지 알고 싶으면
드니스랑 얘기해요

 

난 몰라요

 

애비와 드니스 사이의 일이었어요

 

모함입니다
뻔하고 간단해요

 

NYPD에서 가족 문제로
날 곤란하게 만들면

 

경찰서 전체와 특히 당신들
3명에 대해 고소를 할 겁니다

 

계약법이 전문분야라고 하던데

 

당신도 기소자라는 걸 몰랐나보군요

 

변호사는 변호사입니다

 

날 시험하고 싶다면,
법정에서 봐요

 

아무도 법정에 갈 일 없어요, 드니스

 

사생활의 비밀을 유지하고 싶은 게 아니라면

 

협조해준다면, 당신과

 

가족 모두 에섹스의 집으로
돌아갈 수 있어요, 문제없이

 

소동을 벌이면, 언론을 끌어들이게 돼요

 

애비가 결혼생활을 끝내고 7년동안

 

아직도 집 문제로 다투고 있더군요

 

계약금 10만달러를 돌려달라고 했는데

 

돌려주지 않았어요

 

돈이 필요했다면요

 

종양전문의와 결혼했어요. 수입은 많을 걸요

 

그래요. 나와 애비 사이의 일은

 

좋지 않았어요, 하지만

 

2주 전 우린 점심식사를 하며

 

화해했어요.
애비의 생각이었어요

 

암 진단을 받았고, 종결을 원했어요

 

확실한 끝이요

 

여기

 

서명한 다음 내게 이메일로 보냈어요

 

원본은 집에 있어요

 

집에 대한 권리 양도 증서입니다

 

보다시피, 내가 애비를 해칠 이유는 없어요

 

해치려고 한 적도 없어요.
난 애비를 사랑했어요

 

한때는

 

자, 이제 됐나요?

 

미안하지만, 애비가
화해의 선물로 뭘 원했나요?

 

드니스?

 

네, 원하는 게 있었어요
하지만 내가 줄 수 없어요

 

비밀유지 서약서를 작성했으니까요

 

뭔가를 팔려고 했고, 구매자가 거래내용을

 

폭로하지 않는다는 보장을 원했어요

 

뭘 팔았습니까?

 

몰라요

 

아마 훔친 물건이 아닌가 싶어요

 

불법 행위가 포함된 계약은 무효라고 설명하자

 

취소했어요

 

하지만 난 몰라요

 

훔친 물건이 뭐였든지

 

목숨이 달린 일이었나봅니다

 

코르테즈 형사. 조앤 왓슨입니다

 

이미 알고 있겠지만

 

뭘 도와드릴까요, 왓슨?

 

사실, 내가 도움이 될지 궁금했어요

 

나에 대해 질문을 하러 다녔다면서요

 

직접 얼굴을 보고 얘기하면

 

오해를 풀 수 있다고 생각했어요

 

무척 사려깊은 분이군요
하지만 지금은 적당한 때가 아닙니다

 

적당한 때는 언제가 될까요?

 

모릅니다

 

하지만 당신과 얘기할 때가
되면 찾아갈게요. 날 믿어요

 

내가 무슨 잘못을 했는지
정도는 말해줄래요?

 

잘못을 했다고 말한 적 없어요

 

날 아는 사람들과 더 만날 계획인가요?

 

불편해요?

 

당신 인생을 뒤지고 질문을 하는게?

 

숨기는 건 없나보군요

 

막 문자보내려던 참인데

 

아직 자유로군요. 내가 보기엔

 

코르테즈 형사의 오해는 해명했나봐요?

 

아뇨. 틀렸어요

 

관할서에서 나가는 형사를 만났어요

 

물어보고 싶은 질문이 있으면
얼마든지 대답하겠다고 말했어요

 

질문이 없대요

 

그래서 물었죠, "적어도 내가

 

어떤 혐의를 받고 있는지는
말해달라"고 했지만, 없대요

 

형사가 용의자에게 비밀을
유지하는 건 특별한 일이 아니죠

 

그러니까, 난 용의자가 아니라고 생각해요

 

개인적인 문제겠죠
날 골탕먹이고 있어요

 

어제까지 코르테즈 형사 이름도
들어본 적 없다고 했죠

 

맞아요

 

아마 형사의 애인 중 한명과 잤을지도 모르죠

 

형사는 동성애자이고
난 아니라는 걸 고려하면

 

그럴 리는 없을걸요

 

아, 그래서 조사 중이군요

 

어떻게 해요?
문제가 뭔지 말해주지 않으니

 

직접 알아내야죠

 

이건 다 뭐죠?

 

스투이페산트 기념병원의 재고 기록,
인사 기록, 보안 보고서요

 

애비 캠벨의 전 배우자 중 한 명이

 

훔친 물건을 팔려고 했다고 생각했어요

 

그게 뭐든 병원에서 훔쳤을 거라는거죠

 

고가의 물건에 접근할 수 있었어요

 

약은 병원 절도의 가장 많은 목표물이죠

 

하지만 병원의 재고는 모두 일치해요

 

손실이 전혀 없어요

 

애비의 검사실 물건도 모두 딱 맞아요

 

시험관이나 비커 같은
싼 물건 몇개 빼고는

 

유리용기는 항상 손실이 있죠

 

인턴과 간호사들이 컵 대신 쓰거든요

 

당신 반짇고리에서
봉합용 가위도 봤어요

 

어쨌든, 애비가 훔쳤을 만한
다른 물건이 있다는 거죠

 

인공수정 클리닉의 직원으로

 

접근할 수 있으며

 

엄청 높은 수요를 가진 것

 

살아있는 인간의 배아

 

폐기될 배아세포를 훔치는 건
간단한 일이었겠죠

 

수정란 1개는 공개시장에서

 

1만달러는 받을 수 있어요

 

애비의 세포가 공개시장에 나갔을 것 같진 않아요

 

구매자를 찾고 있었다면

 

지인들의 범주를 벗어나서
찾지는 않았을 거예요

 

닥터 암릿

 

셜록홈즈이고
여긴 조앤 왓슨입니다

 

저희는 NYPD 자문입니다

 

당신은 애비 캠벨과 대학 동창이죠?

 

네?

 

최근 애비의 사망 전까지 친구 관계였죠

 

오늘 아침 SNS에 조의의 글을 올렸더군요

 

그래서요?

 

당신은 연구에 배아줄기세포를 사용했죠?

 

2달전 애비가 당신이 쓴 글을 게재했어요

 

인공수정 클리닉에서 파손시키는 배아세포를

 

연구자들이 규제없이 접근해야한다고
주장하는 내용이었요

 

배아줄기세포 연구는 당뇨와 다른 대사질환의

 

치료법 발견에 가장 유망한 길입니다

 

하지만 왜 경찰에서 관심을 갖는지

 

정치인들이 적합한 세포
획득을 어렵게 만드는

 

기초에 영합하자, 좌절했겠군요

 

애비에게 남는 배아를 구매할 정도로

 

채점할 논문이 있어서요

 

물론, 불법으로 취득한 배아는

 

유전자를 제공한 잠재 부모의 동의가 없죠

 

영장을 받을 수 있어요
닥터의 실험실 세포의 DNA가

 

애비의 클리닉 환자와 일치한다면

 

연방 범죄가 됩니다

 

난 생명을 구하려는겁니다

 

당뇨는 전염병이에요
매년 4백만명이 넘는 사람이 죽어요

 

애비에게 사들인 배아는 몇개죠?
20개도 넘나요?

 

수백 수천달러어치군요

 

우리가 알기로는, 애비에게
한 푼도 지불하지 않았어요

 

보상금을 주지 않으려고

 

오랜 친구를 죽였습니까?

 

난 애비를 죽이지 않았어요

 

그리고 애비는 돈을 원하지 않았어요

 

거래였어요

 

거래 조건은요?

 

내 실험실을 쓸 수 있게 해달라고 했어요

 

비밀리에 아무도 없을 때

 

혈액검사를 하고 싶어했어요

 

대신 난 배아를 요구했어요

 

어차피 버릴 거였어요

 

필요없는

 

무슨 검사를 했죠?

 

말하지 않았어요

 

컴퓨터와 연결된 장비를 사용했을 거예요

 

하드 드라이브에 검사 기록이 남아있을 겁니다

 

-저희가 볼 수 있을까요?
-네

 

괜찮긴 합니다만
별로 찾을 수 있는 건 없을 것 같아요

 

내 연구를 종교적인 이유로 반대하는
광신도들의 짓이라고 생각했어요

 

편지와 이메일을 받았어요, 매우 험악한 내용으로

 

하지만 그 후 애비 소식을 들었고

 

지금은 잘 모르겠어요

 

혈액 화학 분석기

 

유세포 분석기

 

혈액검사에 사용했던 기기 전부군요

 

애비가 여기서 뭘 했든

 

계속 비밀로 하고 싶었나보군

 

그래서 애비 캠벨은 어떤 혈액 검사를 했고

 

누군가 그걸 좋아하지 않았군

 

범인은 애비를 죽이고

 

해체했고, 그 다음날 밤

 

애비가 사용했던 연구실로
가서 데이터를 모두 없앴어

 

불을 낸 사람은 기계를 태우는 게 목적이 아니었어요

 

하드 드라이브를 빼서 없앴어요

 

뭘 검사했을까?

 

가설 하나는 애비는 동료의 사기를

 

의심하고 확인하려 했다는 겁니다

 

사기?

 

엄마들에게 알리지 않고

 

자신의 정자를 수백개의 난자에 수정시킨

 

캘리포니아의 의사 기억하시죠?

 

애비의 클리닉에도 같은 짓을
한 사람이 있을 수도 있어요

 

닥터 암릿의 연구실에 들어가려던 이유가 설명이 됩니다

 

친자 검사를 했던 거죠

 

그게 하나의 가설이면
또 있나?

 

지금은 없어요

 

하지만 다른 가설은 영장 받기 힘들수도 있어요

 

범인이 애비의 연구 결과를
놓쳤을 가능성이 있어요

 

대학 연구실에서 나오는 생물학적 쓰레기는

 

특수 처리를 위해 저장고에 따로 보관돼요

 

쓰레기는 1주일에 3번 수거돼요

 

연구실이 불타기 전날 밤에 수거됐어요

 

애비가 버린 시험체가 저장고에 있다면

 

처리업체에서 아직 보관하고 있을 것이다

 

영장을 받도록 검사실에 연락하지

 

클리셰인가요?

 

도넛가게에 있는 경찰?

 

내가 여기 있다고 누가 말했어요?

 

말할 수는 없지만, 당신이
왜 날 괴롭히는지는 알아요

 

절도부로 이동하기 전에

 

브롱크스에서 앤 베시 밑에 있었죠

 

소문에 앤이 그렉슨 경감님 자리에 올라가면

 

당신을 강력반으로 보내주겠다고 약속했다죠

 

당신에겐 큰 기회였겠죠

 

그렉슨이 떠나지 않아
앤이 가지 못했을 뿐이지

 

그 일로 날 탓하는군요

 

내가 베시를 조사했다는 사실을 알아냈죠

 

내가 베시를 망쳤다고 생각해요

 

뭐지?

 

그렉슨 경감님께 드렸던
모든 내용이에요. 읽어봐요

 

베시는 문제 없다는 걸 알 수 있어요

 

경감님은 아직 준비가 안 되서
자리를 옮기지 않았을 뿐

 

내 말 때문이 아니에요

 

무겁네요

 

무척 많이 조사했네요

 

앤에 대해 찾았든
못 찾았든 난 상관 없어

 

난 당신이 봤던 것 전부를 신경쓰는거지

 

당신은 경찰이 아니야

 

과대망상을 가진 민간인이지

 

경찰, 진짜 경찰인 우리가

 

사람들을 충분히 살피고 있어

 

정치인, 언론, IAB

 

매일 우리를 비판하지

 

하지만 그러려고 있는 사람들이니까

 

당신이 뭔데 우릴 조사하지?

 

한 번도 자문을 써본 적이 없군요

 

없어

 

자문은 써본 적 없어

 

진짜 경찰은 자기 일은 자기가 하거든

 

그게 바로 일하는 방법이지

 

당신은 끼어들지 못하지만

 

할 말은 없어요, 형사

 

난 어디로도 가지 않아요

 

갔었잖아

 

당신과 파트너

 

그리고 둘 다 돌아왔지

 

이상해. 그렇지?

 

어제 새 사건을 맡았어

 

한동안은 바쁘겠지만, 수사가 끝나면,

 

글쎄. 아마 크게 한 바퀴 돌아보겠지

 

뭘 알아낼지 두고봐

 

전부 닥터 암릿의 실험실에서 나왔어요?

 

대학교 전체에서 나온 의료폐기물이에요

 

팀에서 정리를 한 것 같긴하지만

 

당신과 내가 찾아보는 게 좋겠다고 생각했어요

 

알았어요, 하지만

 

장갑, 고글, 마스크는 옆에 있어요

 

살펴보는동안 스토커와의
만남에 대해 말해줘요

 

 

형사는 미친 것 같아요

 

당신을 좋아하지 않으니까?

 

나한테 집착하니까요

 

형사 입장에선 당신은 자기 친구를 조사했던

 

한낱 민간인일 뿐이죠

 

당신도 같아요

 

난 날 좋아하지 않는 사람들에 익숙해요

 

알았어요. 그래서 형사가
나나 우리에 대해 계속 조사해서

 

당신 아버지가 우릴 11번서로 돌아가도록

 

압력을 넣은 걸 알아내면요?

 

내가 보기에

 

문제의 핵심은 코르테즈 형사가 당신을

 

동료가 아닌 외부인으로 보는 것이군요

 

당신이 경찰이었다면
불평이라고 말했을 걸요

 

불평은 해결될 수 있지만,
당신이 해결할 수는 없어요

 

-난 자문이니까
-정확해요

 

그래서, 그냥 받아들이고
계속 날 괴롭히게 놔둬요?

 

아까 말했듯이, 당신을
동료로 보지 않으면

 

보게 만들어요

 

작년에 그렐과 런츠 형사들과의

 

-충돌 기억해요?
-네

 

몇달동안 심해졌지만
결국 해결됐어요

 

어떻게 해결됐는지 생각나요?

 

장난치지 말아요

 

코르테즈 형사가 그 생각을 받아들일
거라고 믿는 이유가 있어요

 

6개의 플라스틱 시험관에 각각

 

혈액이 있고, 그 중 하나에는,

 

라벨에 애비 캠벨의 자필이 있어요

 

애비가 보던 것 같아요

 

검사물은 이니셜에 채취날짜와
시간으로 구분되어 있어요

 

검체는 3주동안 목요일 밤
9시에서 10시 사이에 채취됐어요

 

무슨 의미가 있어요?

 

피살자의 달력을 기억하는 건 당연한 일이죠

 

이 때 애비가 있던 곳을 알아요

 

그래서 누구와 얘기를 해야할지도 알고 있어요

 

지지자 모임은 암 환자들에게 무척 도움이 됩니다

 

같은 동료들만이 이해할 수 있는

 

매우 많은 일들을 겪고있어요

 

애비 캠벨이 3달동안 지지자
모임에 관심이 있었나요?

 

진단 받은 다음부터요

 

이 모임에서 혈액을 채취했다는

 

믿을만한 근거가 있습니다

 

같은 모임 회원들이었다고 추측합니다만

 

루소프씨, 살인사건 수사입니다

 

3주전 애비가 모임에서 핏치를 올렸어요

 

암 연구를 하는 친구가 있다고 했어요

 

가망이 있다면서

 

치료법도 나올 거라고 했어요

 

사람들을 연구에 넣어줄 수 있다고 했어요

 

적합성을 알아보기 위해
혈액 샘플이 필요하다고 했고

 

의심스러웠나봅니다

 

항상 획기적인 암 치료라며 광고를 하죠

 

얼마나 자주 악화되는지 상상이나 하실까요

 

회의적인 사람은 나 뿐만이 아니었어요

 

회원 중 한 명의 남편이 모임에 나와서

 

애비를 사기꾼이라고 몰아세웠어요

 

아내를 내버려두지 않으면
후회할 거라고 했어요

 

그 사람의 이름을 말해줄래요?

 

커크

 

커크 아브라모비치요

 

네, 애비 캠벨을 협박했어요

 

아뇨, 해골로 만들지는 않았어요

 

앞뒤가 맞지 않는군요, 아브라모비치

 

SNS를 보니

 

아버지의 정육점에서 일하는
당신 사진을 봤어요

 

고기를 자르는 거랑
사람을 발골하는 건

 

전혀 다른 거라고 생각해요

 

치료가 있던 날

 

애비가 내게 사기를 친다고 생각해서

 

커크가 큰 소리를 냈어요

 

그만두기만을 바랬어요

 

그런 사람은 전에도 봤어요

 

커크의 어머니는 90년대 말에
대장암으로 돌아가셨어요

 

온갖 엉터리 사기꾼들에게 시달렸어요

 

광선치료, 자석, 특별식,

 

상어 연골까지 시도했어요

 

집을 2순위 저당 잡힌 상태로

 

멕시코의 클리닉에서 돌아가셨어요

 

다 소용없어요

 

애비가 말했던 연구가 해가
될 거라고 생각하진 않았지만

 

사실은, 필요없었어요

 

항암치료가 효과가 있어요

 

닥터 캠벨이 제가 정말
잘하고 있다고 했어요

 

닥터 캠벨이면, 네이트 캠벨이요?

 

애비의 남편이 주치의였어요?

 

애비가 제 혈액을 가져가도록 동의한 이유였어요

 

애비가 닥터캠벨의 아내였으니까요

 

무슨 말을 하는지 알아야한다고 생각했어요

 

아, 아들이 깼어요. 가봐도 될까요?

 

아가

 

안녕, 어머 예뻐

 

키와 몸무게가 100퍼센트랍니다

 

 

엄청 크려나봐요

 

아빠처럼, 그치?

 

 

무슨 암인지 물어봐도 될까요?

 

척추 형질세포종이요

 

요통이 있었는데, 혹이었어요

 

닥터 캠벨이 항암치료를 처방했어요

 

종양의 위치가 어디죠?

 

4번 요추요

 

전 외과의사였어요
제가 봐도 될까요?

 

그럼요

 

잠깐만 내려놓을게, 아가야

 

 

 

똑바로 서 주세요

 

자, 1에서 10까지

 

10이 가장 아픈걸로 하면
이건 얼마나 돼요?

 

약간 불편해요. 2 정도요

 

 

통증 조절은 뭘로 하고 있어요?

 

나프록센이요

 

 

밤에는 더 아플텐데요?

 

약간요. 하지만 약이 도움이 돼요

 

제 생각일 뿐이지만
닥터 캠벨이 맞는 것 같아요

 

완전히 회복된 게 확실해요

 

궁금하다면요, 왓슨, 아브라모비치는

 

애비 캠벨 사건 당시 알리바이가 없어요

 

-아브라모비치는 아니에요
-나도 그렇게 생각해요

 

인터뷰하는 동안 내가 지켜본 바로는

 

거짓말을 하는 징후가 없었기 때문이에요

 

당신은 왜 그가 아니라고 생각해요?

 

애비를 살해한 범인이 누군지 확신하기 때문이죠

 

그래요?

 

새디 아브라모비치가
암에 걸린 적이 없다는 걸

 

알게 되니까 전부 맞춰졌어요

 

항암치료를 하기 전의 새디 아브라모비치예요

 

-알아보겠어요?
-그럼요

 

내용을 보면 척추 형질세포종으로

 

치료를 하는 중이었으며

 

종양의 위치는 제 4번 요추네요

 

맞아요

 

무척 좋아지고 있어요

 

완전관해를 기대하고 있어요

 

아브라모비치를 만나러
갔을 때, 내 동료가

 

진단에 몇가지 모순점을
발견했다는 걸 알려드리죠

 

척추 형질세포종은 해당 척추에
미세 골절을 일으켜요

 

대부분의 환자들이 잘 걷지도 못해요

 

새디는 잘 움직이더군요
앉고, 서고, 걷고

 

아기를 안아올리고. 문제 없이

 

매우 초기에 진단을 했어요

 

그래서 미세골절이 일어날 새가 없었어요

 

종양을 없앤 적은 없죠?

 

네. 너무 많은 신경이 관련되서

 

일리 있네요

 

제가 새디의 4번 요추를 직접 눌러봤을 때

 

날카로운 통증 대신 약간의
묵직함만을 느꼈던 걸 빼면요

 

밤에 악화되는 통증은

 

양성 유골골종의 전형적인 증상이죠

 

내 진단은 변함없어요

 

잠깐만요

 

아내 살해범 찾는 걸 돕기 위해서

 

내 의뢰인은 이 면담에 동의했어요

 

환자 한 명을 오진했다고 해서

 

그게 사건과 무슨 상관이 있는지 모르겠군요

 

오진이 한 명이면 상관없죠

 

하지만 수십명이면
얘기가 완전 달라져요

 

먼저 당신의 서류에 대해 영장을 받은 후

 

모든 환자들에게 추적 검사를 요청했어요

 

검사에 동의한 환자들 중

 

1/3은 전혀 암에 걸리지 않았어요

 

당신은 오진을 해왔고,

 

필요없는 항암치료를 받게 했어요, 아마 수년동안

 

글쎄, 수익을 위해서?

 

치료율을 부풀리기 위해서?

 

아무도 의심하지 않았지

 

아내가 암에 걸리기 전까지는

 

애비는 당신 클리닉에서 항암치료를
받으면서 수상한 점을 발견했어요

 

새디처럼, 진단과 일치하지
않는 증상을 가진 사람들

 

증명하기 위해, 검사를 했어요

 

애비의 실수는 신고하기 전에 악행의 증거를 갖고

 

당신 앞에 들이민 것이었어요

 

해명해줄 거라고 기대했던 거지

 

하지만 당신은 목을 졸랐어

 

짚고 넘어가야겠군,
이건 모두 추정일 뿐이지?

 

아니, 이제 더이상은 아닙니다

 

클리닉 매니저와 얘기했어요

 

오진과 사기, 모든 것에 대해 인정했어요

 

당신 알리바이도 철회했어요

 

사실, 애비가 실종됐던 날

 

당신이 애비와의 격렬한 통화 끝에

 

검사실 쪽으로 가는 걸 봤다고 했어요

 

애비에게 말했어요

 

내가 한 일은 모두 가족을 위해서였다고

 

-네이트
-아뇨

 

다 말할 겁니다

 

하지만 브랜포드에게 전해줘요

 

내가 미안하다고 했다고

 

전할 수 있도록 해보지

 

콤비네이션 좋네요

 

날 찾아온 게 세번째야

 

똑똑하다면, 4번째는 없을테지

 

4번째는 내가 당신에게
말하고 싶은 게 있을 때겠지

 

2주 뒤에 NYPD 복싱 클럽 시합이 있던데

 

우리가 기부금을 올릴 수 있을 것 같아

 

나랑 붙고 싶어?

 

그게 끝내는 방법, 맞지?

 

두 경찰에게 문제가 있고

 

해결할 수 없을 때

 

맞아. 문제는 네가 경찰이 아니라는거야

 

그게 당신에게 나쁠 게 있어?

 

자문에게 얻어맞는다고?

 

나랑 싸우고 싶으면, 기다릴 필요 있어?

 

링이 바로 저기 있는데

 

그렇게 말할 줄 알았어

 

좋아

 

가능한 오래 담그고 있어요

 

부은 주먹 치료법은 나도 알아요

 

밀가루가 더 있어야겠네

 

당신은 평행선 같아요

 

원시적인 스포츠를 위한 원시적인 치료법

 

이게 원시적으로 보인다면

 

두고봐요, 오랫동안
공들인 연구 성과를 보여줄게요

 

약간의 마운틴 아르니카와
마리골드 향을 첨가한

 

컴프리 잎과 밀가루로 만든 찜질팩이에요

 

적극 추천해요

 

물론, 명예의 훈장으로 멍든 눈을
유지하길 원하지 않는다면

 

전부 없던 일로 하고 싶어요

 

코르테즈 형사도 같은 기분일까요?

 

두고봐야죠

 

아주 최소한

 

전투술의 지속적 수련의 현명함이 증명됐군요

 

물론, 방어법을 익혀야해요

 

너무 많은 펀치를 허용했어요

 

그러게요

 

하지만 결국엔 내가 이겼는걸요

Here's a question
we should have asked

 

ten minutes ago.

 

What if these cuffs
really are un-pickable?

 

Claiming a new line of handcuffs
to be “un-pickable”

 

is the equivalent
of proclaiming

 

revamped laundry detergent

 

“new and improved”--
it's a marketing ploy,

 

and not a very original one
at that.

 

I'm just saying,
maybe we should have figured out

 

how to unlock them
before we put them on.

 

The purpose of this exercise
is to simulate field conditions.

 

If we were kidnapped,
do you think our captors

 

would allow us a dry run
with our restraints?

 

Oh.

 

Almost had it.

 

Unlike hand grenades, handcuffs
do not reward nearness.

It's Stuyvesant
Memorial Hospital,

 

your former place of employ.

 

If you'd like,
I could play you the voice mail.

 

I'll just put it on speaker
phone-- what's your passcode?

 

I got it. Thanks.

 

This is her.

 

Abby Campbell.

 

She's a lab tech
at our fertility clinic.

 

The night before last,
she told a colleague

 

she was planning
to work late.

 

Her husband--
he's a doctor here--

 

he says she never came home.

 

Her car's still
in the parking garage,

 

but no one's been able
to locate her.

 

You called the police?

 

They've already been here.
They're looking into it.

 

But then I thought of you,
and I figured

 

since we have a detective
in the family...

 

Is it possible she left
without telling anyone?

 

She has a two-year-old daughter.
I can't imagine her

 

leaving her behind.

 

She's a good person,
stable, respectable.

 

Respectable people have been
known to uproot themselves

 

without any warning.
All I can tell you is

 

it would be out of character,

 

and that a lot of people
care about her.

 

So what do you think?

 

Can you help?

 

This is her workstation.

 

Where she spent her days looking
at life through a microscope.

 

And nights.

 

No one seems surprised

 

that Abby was planning
to work late.

 

The rise

 

in the breeding age
of the average American female

 

has led to a great increase

 

in the demand
for fertility specialists.

 

You'd think given the sensitive
nature of this facility,

 

there would be security cameras,
wouldn't you?

 

Surveillance

 

in the hospital's lab wing
has always been pretty light.

 

She could have
slipped out unnoticed.

 

Or someone else could have slipped in.

 

What is it?

 

It's Emily--

 

she says she needs
to talk, it's urgent.

 

Did your entire social network
choose today

 

to have some sort of crisis,
or is this somehow related

 

to your former administrator's
request for help.

 

No, Emily and Tamara
didn't know each other.

 

Emily wants
to meet up.

 

She says she needs
to talk in person.

 

Did you find something?

 

Abby's workstation,
and only Abby's,

 

has been very recently
and very thoroughly cleaned.

 

Maybe she tidied up
before she left.

 

Maybe there was
a violent struggle here...

 

followed
by a thorough scrubbing.

 

Do you think Abby Campbell
and her fellow techs

 

would be in the habit
of wheeling samples

 

to and from this area
on gurneys?

 

You almost never
see gurneys

 

in this part of the hospital--

 

it's all labs
and support facilities.

 

Yet there's evidence that one
was used here quite recently.

 

Had a sticky wheel,
left scuff marks every few feet.

 

That's one way someone could
have gotten Abby out of here.

 

They continue into the corridor.
Let's track them.

 

Trail ends here.

 

You familiar
with this room?

 

No, I've never been
down here before.

 

Not exactly a surgical
suite, is it?

 

Actually, I think it is.

 

Sort of.

 

This is
an ultrasonic aspirator.

 

These are human organs.

 

More human organs.

 

This is a prep lab
for medical specimens.

 

They take donor corpses

 

and turn them
into teaching materials

 

for med schools.
This would have been

 

a great place
to dispose of a body.

 

Abby Campbell's dead.

 

I'm just saying
it's a possibility.

 

No. It is a certainty.

 

Note the chip in
her left maxillary

 

central incisor.

reconstruction,

 

they wanted it to end up
in a lab somewhere.

 

Well, any way you slice it--

 

pun definitely not intended--
whoever did this

 

is a nasty
piece of work.

 

He didn't just kill her,
he took her apart.

 

Nasty and skilled.

 

Stripping and then reassembling
Mrs. Campbell overnight

 

would have taken
a certain amount of expertise.

 

We're looking at a doctor
or a nurse or...

 

pretty much any one of a thousand
other medical professionals

 

who work at that hospital.
Or someone who works

 

for one of its
many associated laboratories,

 

private practices
and specialty clinics.

 

You said on the phone

 

you thought she was
choked to death?

 

There is
exactly one bone missing

 

from this macabre display--
the hyoid.

 

Should sit right here.
Now, since the hyoid

 

is known to break

 

in one-third of all
homicides by strangulation...

 

You think the killer got rid
of it to cover his tracks.

 

Perhaps he thought
a broken hyoid

 

was more suspicious
than an absent one.

 

Now, assuming
Abby Campbell was strangled

 

at her workstation--
and since that workstation faced

 

the only entrance
to the laboratory...

 

Stands to reason he
didn't sneak up on her.

 

She knew him.

 

Did I mention
her husband is a doctor?

 

... cranberry muffin
for Terry!

 

Hey!

 

Hi.

 

Hi. Thanks for coming.

 

You said it was urgent.

 

It is. Or at least
I think it is.

 

What, you don't know
if it's urgent or not?

 

Honestly, I'm
not even sure

 

if I'm supposed to be
talking about this.

 

About what?

 

A police detective

 

came to my house
this morning.

 

She said she had some
questions for me,

 

so I figured, okay.

 

Then I let her in, and all
her questions were about you.

 

Did she tell you her name?

 

Yeah, she left
her card.

 

Gina Cortes.

 

Here.

 

Burglary Division,

 

Coney Island.
Do you know her?

 

No. What did she want to know.
It was weird.

 

It was personal stuff,
like how we met,

 

how often we get together.
She asked if I thought

 

you were the kind of person
who would break the law.

 

What?
I know.

 

Well, did she say
she was working a case?

 

No. When I asked why she
was asking about you,

 

she said she wasn't at
liberty to discuss it.

 

Joanie...

 

are you in some
sort of trouble?

 

No, of course not.
'Cause if you are,

 

you know you can tell me, right?
Emily,

 

obviously there's been
some sort of misunderstanding.

 

I'll look into it.

 

Dr. Campbell,
just for the record,

 

you are an oncologist
at Stuyvesant Memorial?

 

Yeah.
That where

 

you and Abby met?

 

We didn't
work together.

 

Uh, not directly.

 

My clinic is technically
a private practice.

 

We met at a party.
Mutual friends.

 

How long have you
been together?

 

Five years.

 

Uh... married for three.

 

Your calluses are...
quite distinctive.

 

You a rock climber?

 

Uh... Abby got me into it.

 

I mostly climb at the gym.

 

I imagine you've got
formidable grip strength.

 

You're strong enough
to have overpowered Abby,

 

you've got
the medical knowledge to...

 

reduce her to a skeleton--
we have to ask.

 

Did I kill my wife?

 

No.

 

I understand
you guys have to ask...

 

but...

 

The night that
Abby disappeared,

 

I was going over the books
with my clinic manager.

 

Now, she can tell you
when I left,

 

but I remember
it was late.

 

And why didn't you
report Abby missing

 

when you came home,
realized she wasn't there?

 

Abby's clinic is understaffed;
she works long hours.

 

She told the nanny
to look after her daughter

 

until I got home.

 

I got home.

 

I just...
I went to bed.

 

Would you describe your marriage
as a happy one?

 

Lately?

 

No.

 

Quite the contrary.

 

You two weren't
getting along?

 

Abby and I were more in love
than we ever were.

 

Our marriage wasn't happy
because she was dying.

 

She had
pancreatic cancer,

 

stage IV.

 

She didn't want anyone to know.

 

I was giving her chemo,
but the truth is...

 

there was no hope.

 

She probably only had
a year to live.

 

You can ask
my nursing staff.

 

The people at my clinic,
they'll tell you.

 

I was doing everything I could
to save Abby's life.

 

I wouldn't
have killed her.

 

The cancer was doing that
all by itself.

What are you doing?

 

Hospital's security cameras
had no sound.

 

So I was providing
a musical score in order

 

to make the tedious comings
and goings of the employees

 

more engaging.

 

You chose a ringtone
you knew I would dislike.

 

So I thought
I would fight fire with fire.

 

“Friday”? Seriously?

 

There's also a song that appeals
to me as a detective.

 

It's a mystery about dogs
and who may have let them out.

 

So did you find anything?

 

There's
precious little

 

on Abby Campbell the night
of her disappearance.

 

A trip to the cafeteria.
A return

 

in the general direction
of her workplace.

 

And then nothing.

 

These are all
from different days?

 

I tracked down
all available video of her

 

in the weeks leading up
to her murder.

 

I was hoping to isolate
any contentious encounters

 

she may have had
with her coworkers.

 

And?

 

It appears
she was very, very well-liked.

 

No unpleasantness whatsoever.

 

There was, however,
some suspicious pleasantness.

 

They look intimate.

 

Using hospital employee records,
I was able to identify that man

 

as Dr. Branford Fisher,
a surgical resident.

 

Dr. Fisher and Abby have no
professional reason to interact.

 

Their areas of expertise
have no overlap. I have,

 

however, observed no less
than 12 meetings between them.

 

And all in out-of-the-way
corners of the hospital.

 

That is a disused patient room.

 

They spend approximately
15 minutes in there together,

 

and then they emerged
looking rumpled and happy.

 

Abby was having an affair.

 

Dr. Fisher
called in sick

 

the morning
she was reported missing.

 

I've attempted to contact him,

 

but he's not answering
his phone.

 

And the only listed address
for him

 

is a P.O. box.

 

All rather suspicious.

 

How went your
meeting with Emily?

 

Not great, actually.

 

Can you think of any reason
why the police

 

would be investigating me?

 

You said Emily was not
your only friend contacted

 

by Detective Cortes.

 

Yeah, I got calls
from two other people today.

 

The detective
asked them

 

the same kinds of questions.

 

What kind of person am I,

 

would I ever break the law.

 

But she never outright accused
you of anything.

 

No.
Have you, Watson,

 

ever committed any burglaries
in Coney Island?

 

Have to ask.

 

No, I have not committed

 

any burglaries in Coney Island.

 

I can't even remember
the last time

 

I was in that part of the city.

 

You have to talk to this woman.
You think?

 

The timing of her investigation
is unfortunate,

 

to say the least. We've
only just returned to the NYPD,

 

so the last thing we need
are rumors

 

that we've engaged
in some kind of thievery.

 

I will handle it. Okay?

 

Hello?

 

Mr. Holmes?
This is Nate Campbell.

 

How'd you get this number,
Dr. Campbell?

 

I understand
you're looking for a doctor

 

from Stuyvesant Memorial.

 

Branford Fisher.

 

I am.

 

I can tell you where he is.

 

But only in person.

 

And you can't bring the police.

 

We came alone,
as per your request.

 

But the police are aware
we're here,

 

on the off chance
you intend to do us harm.

 

No. Nothing like that.
Please, come in.

 

So, you told us
you could help us find...

 

Dr. Fisher.

 

Someone needs
to tell us

 

what's going on
right now.

 

When you left your message,
I got nervous.

 

I called Nate.

 

Because...

 

It's complicated.

 

Branford never
would have hurt Abby.

 

Did you know
they were having an affair?

 

No, it wasn't
an affair, was it?

 

Dr. Fisher's a size 12.

 

Dr. Campbell's a size nine.
There's a pair of size 12

 

running shoes here by the door.

 

There's also a photograph
of Dr. Fisher receiving

 

a commendation on the wall.

 

He lives here.

 

On the phone,
you said this was your house.

 

It's their house.

 

They were both married to Abby.

 

Or is there another explanation
for your matching

 

wedding bands?

 

I think the current slang
for such an arrangement

 

is a “thruple.”

 

Three people, one marriage.

 

You were both married
to Abby at the same time.

 

We were. But I swear to you,

 

neither of us killed
our wife.

 

We had to keep our
marriage secret.

 

We have a two-year-old
daughter, Chloe.

 

If we got reported to Family
Services, we could lose her.

 

Not to mention our careers.
Hospitals don't like scandals.

 

You all look
very happy together.

 

We are.

 

We were.

 

We're just... a family.

 

We're no different
than anyone else.

 

Can you account
for your whereabouts

 

the night Abby disappeared?

 

I was in Boston.

 

My dad's been sick.
I went up to see him.

 

But I also caught up
with some friends.

 

They'll all tell
you I was there.

 

If you don't mind me asking,
how did this...

 

arrangement come about?

 

Branford and
I were, uh,

 

together first.
But we had an understanding.

 

Uh, and as I said,
I met Abby at a party.

 

It grew
from there.

 

She was okay joining you?

 

It was her idea, actually.
She'd done it before.

 

She was in
another group marriage?

 

Arrangements like ours happen
more often than people think.

 

For some people,
it just works.

 

It worked for Abby.

 

Mostly.

 

Her last marriage was a bad one?

 

It ended badly.

 

She had a falling-out with
one of her fellow wives.

 

She hinted it
got violent once.

 

There was
a dispute.

 

Over money, community assets.

 

And she was still fighting it,

 

years after.
You said

 

“one of her fellow wives.”
How many people were involved

 

in her previous marriage?

 

Not counting Abby? Five.

 

Abby Campbell's exes.
All five of them.

 

They're still married.

 

They live in some big house
out in West Essex County.

 

I had to send five
different cars to get them.

 

All the suspects
we could hope for.

 

I don't know how they do it.

 

I couldn't make a marriage
to one person work.

 

But Americans
have experimented

 

with every possible variation
of matrimony.

 

From the adelphic polygyny
of the Omaha tribe

 

to the patriarchal polygamy
of the early Mormons

 

to the free love hippy communes
of the 1970s.

 

And while some
of those experiments

 

were abject failures,
many were remarkably long-lived.

 

Yeah, well, this
experiment ended badly,

 

at least for
Abby Campbell.

 

Maybe bad enough
to get her killed.

 

They're here,
but they're not happy.

 

I assume
you've kept them separate

 

so they can't coordinate
their stories?

 

Yeah. Like five married people
could ever agree on anything.

 

Abby was special.
We all loved her.

 

Everything was great.
The first year or two.

 

I got nothing to say to you.

 

But you have to understand,
Abby was...

 

stubborn.

 

I'm supposed to be coaching
my daughter's

 

soccer team this afternoon.

 

Do I really need
to be here?

 

It was really all about money.
Abby worked hard.

 

She wanted to keep
what she earned.

 

But Denise insisted
we all pool our money.

 

We're registered
as two married couples.

 

We share a house to save money.

 

Trish is our nanny.

 

The nanny?

 

Yeah. Sure.

 

I'm the nanny.

 

It got a little ugly.

 

Especially when it came time
to buy the house.

 

The house thing.
That was when it all went bad.

 

Abby had this inheritance, and
Denise pressured her to use it

 

as a down payment. Abby agreed,

 

but she was never really happy
about it.

 

We have six kids.
Everybody's got to pitch in.

 

It doesn't matter

 

if they have
a job or not.

 

I don't got to talk to you
about any of this.

 

Unless you're charging me
with something.

 

The arguments

 

just got worse and worse.

 

And it didn't help that Abby
was so much younger than Denise

 

and maybe... got a little more

 

attention
when it came to, you know,

 

- sleeping arrangements.
- There was

 

a little pushing and shoving
between her

 

and Denise toward the end.

 

I think that was
the last straw.

 

The next day,
she just... left.

 

She'd been trying to get that
down payment back ever since.

 

But giving it to her would've
meant selling the house.

 

Denise said that was out
of the question.

 

You want to know what happened,
talk to Denise.

 

I don't know.

 

That was between her and Denise.

 

This is harassment,
plain and simple.

 

And if the NYPD
causes me

 

or my family any embarrassment,

 

I will sue this department
in general

 

and you three in particular.

 

It says here your specialty
is contract law.

 

Didn't know
you were also a litigator.

 

A lawyer is a lawyer.

 

You want to test me,
I'll see you in court.

 

Look, no one's going to court,
Denise. Not if you want

 

your private life
to stay private.

 

Now, if you cooperate, you

 

and your family can go back
home to Essex, no problem.

 

You make a stink, you're
gonna end up in the press.

 

Seven years after Abby
left the marriage,

 

you and her were still fighting
over her share of the house.

 

She fronted $100,000
for your down.

 

You never paid her back.

 

Like she needed the money.

 

She married an oncologist.
He's rolling in it.

 

Okay, things were bad

 

between Abby and me, but then...

 

we had lunch a few weeks ago.

 

We buried the hatchet.
It was her idea.

 

She was diagnosed with cancer
and wanted closure.

 

No loose ends.

 

Here.

 

She e-mailed me this

 

after she signed it.

 

I have
the original at home.

 

It's a quitclaim giving up
her interest in the house.

 

So you see,
I had no reason to hurt Abby.

 

Not that I ever would have.
I loved her.

 

Once.

 

Now, are we done?

 

Uh, I'm sorry.

 

Did-did she want anything in
return for this peace offering?

 

Denise?

 

Yes, she asked for something,
but I couldn't give it to her.

 

She wanted me
to draw up

 

a confidentiality
agreement.

 

She was trying to sell something
and she wanted a guarantee

 

that the buyer wouldn't reveal
the nature of the transaction.

 

What was she selling?

 

I don't know.

 

But I got the sense it was
something that she'd stolen.

 

When I explained to her
that any contract that pertains

 

to illegal activity
is null and void...

 

she dropped it.

 

But I don't know.

 

Whatever she took,

 

maybe it was worth killing over.

 

Detective Cortes.
Joan Watson.

 

But I'm guessing you
knew that already.

 

How can I help you, Ms. Watson?

 

Actually, I was wondering
if I could help you.

 

You've been asking
questions about me.

 

I thought we could sit
down, talk face-to-face,

 

clear up any
misunderstanding.

 

That's very thoughtful of you,
but now's not a good time.

 

When would be
a good time?

 

I don't know.

 

But when I'm ready to talk
to you, I'll find you. Trust me.

 

Can you at least tell me
what you think I did?

 

I never said
you did anything.

 

Are you planning to talk
to more people I know?

 

Does that make you
uncomfortable?

 

Having someone poke around
in your life, ask questions?

 

It's not like you have
anything to hide, right?

 

Just gonna
text you.

 

Still a free woman,
I see.

 

May I assume you've
cleared up any confusion

 

with Detective Cortes?

 

No, you may not.

 

I caught her as she was leaving
her precinct. I told her

 

I would be happy to answer
any questions she might have.

 

She said she didn't have any.

 

So I asked her, “Can
you at least tell me

 

what crime I'm supposed to have
committed?” She said no.

 

Well, it's not unusual
for a police detective

 

to be cagey with a suspect.

 

Well that's the thing--
I don't think I'm a suspect.

 

I think it's personal.
She's messing with me.

 

You said before yesterday
you'd never even

 

heard of Detective Cortes.

 

Mm, I hadn't.

 

Perhaps at some point you slept
with one of her lovers.

 

Well, considering
she's gay and I'm not,

 

I think that's highly unlikely.

 

Ah, so you've been
looking into her.

 

What choice do I have? She won't
tell me what her problem is,

 

so I have to find out myself.

 

What is all this?

 

Inventory forms,
personnel records

 

and security reports
from Stuyvesant Memorial.

 

One of Abby Campbell's
ex-spouses

 

seems to think she was trying

 

to sell something
that she had stolen.

 

Whatever it was, you're thinking
it came from the hospital.

 

She would have had access
to any number of valuable items.

 

Drugs. They are, of course,
the most common target

 

for medical larceny.

 

But all of the hospital's
inventories add up.

 

Nothing is missing
from any of the pharmacies.

 

All of the equipment in Abby's
lab is also accounted for,

 

except for some
inexpensive items

 

like test tubes and beakers.

 

Glassware goes missing
all the time.

 

Interns and nurses use them
as tumblers and shot glasses.

 

I noticed the suture scissors
in your sewing kit.

 

Anyway,
it occurred to me

 

there was something else
she could have taken.

 

Something she would have
had ready access to

 

as an employee
of the fertility clinic.

 

Something that is in
extremely high demand.

 

Viable human embryos.

 

Would've been
a simple matter to pilfer

 

excess blastocysts
intended for disposal.

 

A single fertilized egg
can go for

 

up to $10,000
on the open market.

 

I don't think Abby's eggs would
have made it to the open market.

 

If she was looking
for a motivated buyer,

 

she needn't
have looked any further

 

than her own social circle.

 

Dr. Amrit.

 

Sherlock Holmes.
This is Joan Watson.

 

We work with
the New York police department.

 

You went to college
with Abby Campbell,

 

did you not?
Uh, excuse me?

 

The two of you remained friends
until her...

 

her recent demise.
Posted your condolences

 

just this morning
on social media.

 

So?

 

You use embryonic stem cells
in your research, right?

 

Abby reposted an article
you wrote a few months ago.

 

In it, you argue that
researchers should have

 

unfettered access
to embryos that are destroyed

 

by IVF clinics in the course
of their work.

 

Embryonic stem cell research
is the most promising path

 

to finding a cure for diabetes
and other metabolic diseases.

 

But why that would be
of interest to the police, uh...

 

Must be frustrating when
politicians pander to their base

 

by making it difficult
to obtain suitable cells.

 

Enough to purchase

 

excess embryos from Abby.

 

I have papers
to grade.

 

It is, of course,
illegal to obtain embryos

 

without the consent
of the potential parent

 

that provided
that genetic material.

 

We can get a warrant.
If the DNA of the cells

 

from your lab match the patients
from Abby's clinic,

 

then that's a federal crime.

 

I'm trying to save lives.

 

Diabetes is a plague. It kills
over four million people a year.

 

How many embryos did you agree
to buy from Abby? A few dozen?

 

That would have cost hundreds
of thousands of dollars.

 

As far as we know,
you never paid her a dime.

 

Did you kill your old friend

 

so that you wouldn't
have to compensate her?

 

I didn't hurt Abby.

 

And she didn't want money.

 

It was a trade.

 

A trade for what?

 

She came to me asking
for access to my lab.

 

She wanted to run
some blood tests

 

after hours and
off the record.

 

I asked for the embryos
in return.

 

They would have just
been thrown away.

 

Wasted.

 

What was she
testing the blood for?

 

She wouldn't tell me.

 

She would have used
computerized equipment.

 

There might be records of her
tests on their hard drives.

 

Do you mind if we have a look?
No.

 

I do not.
I just don't

 

think you're going to find much.

 

I thought it was some religious
fanatic opposed to my research.

 

I get threatening letters
and e-mails-- very nasty.

 

But then I heard
about Abby, and...

 

now I'm not so sure.

 

Blood chemistry analyzer.

 

The flow cytomer.

 

Everything she might have
used to test blood.

 

Whatever she was
doing here,

 

Someone wanted to
keep it a secret.

 

So Abby Campbell runs
some hush-hush blood tests.

 

Someone isn't happy
about that.

 

He or she kills her,

 

takes her apart,
and then the next night

 

goes to the lab she used
and destroys all of her data.

 

Whoever set the fires
didn't just burn those machines.

 

The hard drives were
pulled out and destroyed.

 

Any idea what
the blood tests were for?

 

One theory is that Abby
suspected a colleague

 

of shenanigans and was
seeking confirmation.

 

Shenanigans?

 

You remember the
fertility doctor

 

in California who used
his own sperm to fertilize

 

hundreds of eggs
without informing the mothers?

 

It's possible
someone

 

in Abby's lab
was doing the same.

 

It would explain why she wanted
access to Dr. Amrit's lab.

 

She may have been running
paternity tests.

 

So that's one theory.
There any more?

 

Not at present.

 

But another may be
just a warrant away.

 

It's possible that there's
a trace of Abby's research

 

that her killer missed.

 

The biological waste produced
by university labs is set aside

 

in locked bins
for special processing.

 

The waste is collected
three times a week.

 

There was a pickup the night
before the lab was destroyed.

 

So if Abby dumped
her test materials

 

in one of those locked bins...

 

The disposal company
might still have some.

 

I'll get an ADA

 

to get you a warrant.

 

Sort of a cliche, huh?

 

Cop who actually hangs
out in a doughnut shop?

 

Who told you I was here?

 

I am not at liberty to say,
but I know why you've been

 

harassing me. Before you
moved to Burglary, you were

 

in the Bronx under Ann Vescey.

 

Rumor has it she promised to
transfer you to Major Crimes

 

when she was tapped to take
over for Captain Gregson.

 

That would have been
a big step up for you.

 

Only she didn't
take over for Gregson,

 

because he didn't leave.

 

You blame me for that.

 

Obviously, you found out that
I was looking into Vescey.

 

You think I torpedoed her.

 

What is that?

 

Everything I gave
Captain Gregson. Read it.

 

You'll see that I found
Vescey was clean.

 

The captain decided not to step
aside because he was not ready.

 

Not because of
anything I said.

 

It's heavy.

 

You put a lot of work into this.

 

I don't care

 

what you did or didn't
find out about Ann.

 

What I care about
is that you looked at all.

 

You're not a cop.

 

You're a citizen
with delusions of grandeur.

 

Cops-- real cops--
we have enough people

 

looking over our shoulders.

 

Politicians,
the press, the brass,

 

IAB. They second-guess us
all day long.

 

But, hey, that's
what they're there for.

 

Who are you
to look into us?

 

I take it you've never
used a consultant before?

 

No,

 

I've never used a consultant.

 

Real cops do the job themselves.

 

That's how it works.

 

You don't belong.

 

I don't know
what to tell you, Detective.

 

I'm not going anywhere.

 

But you were.

 

You and your partner.

 

And now
you're both back.

 

That's weird, right?

 

I just caught
a new case last night.

 

It's gonna keep me busy
for a while, but after that,

 

I don't know.
Maybe I'll circle back around.

 

See what else I can find.

 

All that came from
Dr. Amrit's lab?

 

It seems the medical waste
for the entire university

 

was labeled identically.

 

A team is being assembled
to sort through it,

 

but I thought you and I could
get the ball rolling.

 

Okay, but...

 

Gloves, goggles, mask,
right behind you there.

 

You can apprise me
of your meeting

 

with your stalker
as we sort.

 

Mm.

 

I think she may be insane.

 

Because she doesn't like you?

 

Because she's fixating on me.

 

In her defense, you were
investigating her friend

 

and you are a mere citizen.

 

So are you.

 

But I'm quite accustomed
to people not liking me.

 

Okay, so what if she continues
to look into me, into us,

 

and figures out that your father
pulled some strings

 

to get us back into the 11th?

 

As I see it,

 

the crux of the matter
is that Detective Cortes

 

sees you as an outsider
and not a peer.

 

If you were a cop, you would
have what is called a “beef”.

 

And a beef can be settled
and what you have cannot be.

 

Because I'm a consultant.
Precisely.

 

So I-I just take it, I just
let her keep bullying me?

 

As I said before,
she does not see you as a peer,

 

so force her to.

 

You remember the disagreement
that Detectives Grell and Luntz

 

had last year?
Yeah.

 

It festered for months,
then it was resolved.

 

Do you recall
how it was resolved?

 

You're not serious.

 

I have reason to believe
Detective Cortes

 

would be amenable to the idea.

 

Six plastic vials,
each containing

 

blood residue, and each one...

 

with Abby Campbell's handwriting
on the labels.

 

Looks like she was thorough.

 

Test subjects are identified

 

by initials, plus dates
and times of collection.

 

These samples were gathered
on three consecutive Thursdays

 

between the hours
of 9:00 and 10:00p.m.

 

Does that mean something to you?

 

Memorizing a murder victim's
calendar

 

is a matter of course.

 

I know where she was
at these times,

 

so I know who to talk to
about the work she was doing.

 

Support groups

 

can be very helpful
for cancer patients.

 

They're going through
so many things

 

that only their
peers can understand.

 

And Abby Campbell had been
attending your group

 

for three months?

 

Ever since her diagnosis.

 

We have reason to believe

 

that she was collecting blood
during these meetings.

 

May we assume it was
from her fellow group members?

 

Ms. Russof, this is a
murder investigation.

 

A few weeks ago,
Abby made a pitch to the group.

 

She said she had a friend

 

who was doing
advanced cancer research.

 

It was supposed
to be promising.

 

Maybe even a cure.

 

She said she could get people
into the study.

 

She just needed blood samples

 

to test for
suitability.

 

Sounds like
you had your doubts.

 

People are always touting
miracle cures for cancer.

 

You can probably guess
how many pan out.

 

I wasn't the only one
who was skeptical.

 

The husband of one of the group
members came to a meeting,

 

and he accused Abby

 

of being a con
artist. He said

 

that if she didn't
leave his wife alone,

 

she would be sorry.

 

Can you give us
this person's name?

 

Kirk.

 

Kirk Abramovitch.

 

Yeah, I threatened
Abby Campbell.

 

No, I didn't turn her
into a skeleton.

 

You make it sound absurd,
Mr. Abramovitch.

 

But on your social
media page,

 

I've seen pictures
of you pitching in

 

at your father's
butcher shop.

 

I got to think knowing
how to work a deli slicer

 

and deboning a person
are two very different things.

 

That night at therapy,

 

Kirk only yelled
at Abby because

 

he thought she was
trying to scam me.

 

He just wanted
her to back off.

 

I've seen
her type before.

 

Kirk's mother died of colon
cancer in the late '90s.

 

She got suckered
by every snake oil salesman

 

that crossed her path.

 

She tried light therapy,
magnets, special diets,

 

shark cartilage.

 

She ended up taking out
a second mortgage on her house

 

to pay for some fancy clinic
down in Mexico.

 

All for nothing.

 

I didn't think
there was any harm

 

in looking into the
study Abby told us about,

 

but, the truth is,
I didn't need it.

 

My chemo's working.

 

Dr. Campbell says

 

I'm doing really well.

 

Dr. Campbell,
as in Nate Campbell?

 

So,

 

Abby's husband is
your oncologist?

 

That's why I agreed
to give Abby my blood--

 

because she was his wife.

 

I thought she must know
what she's talking about.

 

Oh, that's our
son. Can I

 

go get him?

 

Oh, hey.

 

Hi. Oh, he's beautiful.

 

A hundred percentile
in height and weight.

 

Ah.

 

He's gonna be
a big guy.

 

Oh, just like his daddy.
Yeah, right?

 

Hmm.

 

Do you mind me asking what kind
of cancer you have?

 

Spinal plasmacytoma.

 

I had some back pain,
there was a lump.

 

Dr. Campbell prescribed chemo.

 

And where is the tumor located?

 

On my L4.

 

I used to be a surgeon.
Do you mind if a take a look?

 

Okay. Okay.

 

I'm gonna put you down
for a second, sweetie.

 

Right here.

 

Right here.

 

Okay, if you could just
stand straight for me.

 

Okay, so, on a scale
of one to ten--

 

ten being the worst--
um, how does this feel?

 

A little uncomfortable.
Maybe a two.

 

Mm.

 

And are you taking
anything for the pain?

 

Uh, just naproxen.

 

Yeah.

 

Is the discomfort worse
at night?

 

A little bit,
but the medicine helps.

 

Well, for what it's worth,
I think Dr. Campbell's right.

 

You should make
a full recovery.

 

In case you were
wondering, Watson,

 

Mr. Abramovitch does
not have an alibi

 

for the night of
Abby Campbell's murder.

 

I don't think he did it.
Neither do I.

 

But that's because I stayed for
the duration of his interview,

 

and I saw no indication
that he was lying.

 

Why do you think
he's innocent?

 

Because I'm pretty sure
I know who did kill Abby.

 

You do?

 

It all made sense
once I realized

 

Sadie Abramovitch
doesn't have cancer.

 

This is Sadie
Abramovitch before chemo.

 

Do you recognize her?
Of course.

 

It says here
that you're treating her

 

for spinal plasmacytoma.

 

The tumor is located
on her L4 vertebra.

 

That sounds right.

 

She's doing quite well.

 

We're hoping
for a complete remission.

 

You should know

 

that when we visited
Mrs. Abramovitch,

 

my colleague noted
several inconsistencies

 

with her diagnosis.
Spinal plasmacytoma

 

causes microfractures
in the affected vertebrae.

 

Most patients can barely walk.

 

Sadie can move around just fine,
sit, stand, walk.

 

Lift her baby.
No issues.

 

We diagnosed Sadie
very early on,

 

so, the microfractures

 

didn't have time
to fully develop.

 

Hmm. And you never
removed the tumor?

 

No. Too much nerve involvement.

 

That makes sense.

 

Except when I pressed
directly on her L4,

 

instead of a sharp pain,

 

she only felt a dull ache.

 

And her discomfort gets worse
at night,

 

which is a classic symptom
of a benign osteoid osteoma.

 

I stand by my diagnosis.

 

Excuse me,

 

but my client agreed
to this interview

 

in order to help you

 

find his wife's killer.

 

Now, I fail to see
how a possible misdiagnosis

 

of one his patients has

 

any relevance.
One misdiagnosis would not.

 

Several dozen,
however,

 

tell an entirely
different story.

 

After we got a warrant for
your files the other day,

 

we asked all your patients
to get follow-up exams.

 

Of those who agreed
to be tested,

 

almost a third didn't
have cancer at all.

 

You've been
misdiagnosing patients,

 

and you've been
subjecting them

 

to unnecessary chemotherapy,
probably for years,

 

to-- I don't know--
bolster your profits,

 

inflate your remission rates?

 

And no one suspected you.

 

Until your own wife got cancer.

 

We figure Abby noticed
something fishy

 

when she was getting
chemo at your clinic.

 

Patients like Sadie,

 

whose symptoms didn't
match their diagnoses.

 

But she wanted proof,
so she ran tests.

 

Her mistake

 

was confronting you
with the evidence

 

of your misdeeds
before going to the authorities.

 

Perhaps she thought you'd be
able to explain yourself.

 

But instead, you strangled her.

 

Do I need to point out,
this is all supposition?

 

Nah, it's more
than that.

 

We had a talk with
your clinic manager.

 

She rolled, confirmed
the false diagnoses,

 

the fraud,
the whole thing.

 

She also recanted
your alibi.

 

In fact, the last
time she saw you

 

the night that
Abby disappeared,

 

you were headed
to the research wing

 

right after a heated
phone call with Abby.

 

I told her...

 

that everything I did was
for the good of the family.

 

Nate?
No, no, no. I'll...

 

I'll tell you everything,

 

but you need to let me talk
to Branford.

 

I need to tell him I'm sorry.

 

I'll see what
I can do.

 

Good combination.

 

Third time you've approached me.

 

If you're smart,
there won't be a fourth.

 

Actually, a fourth time is what
I wanted to talk to you about.

 

The NYPD Boxing Club is having
a match in a few weeks.

 

I thought maybe we could
raise some money for charity.

 

You want to fight me?

 

That's how it
done, right?

 

When two cops have a
problem with each other

 

and they can't resolve it?

 

Yeah, the only problem is,
you're not a cop.

 

And that would be
bad for you, right?

 

Getting your ass
kicked by a consultant?

 

If you want to fight me
so bad, why wait?

 

There's a ring right there.

 

Yeah, I thought that's
what you might say.

 

All right.

 

Keep them submerged
as long as you can.

 

I know how to treat
sore knuckles.

 

This needs more flour.
You just like

 

the parallel.

 

Primitive aftercare
for a primitive sport.

 

While this might look primitive,

 

I assure, this is the result

 

of years
of painstaking research.

 

It's a poultice
of comfrey leaves and flour

 

with a dash of mountain arnica
and a sprinkling of marigold.

 

I highly recommend it.

 

Unless, of course,
you want your eye

 

to blacken as a badge of honor.

 

I just want to put
this whole thing behind me.

 

And does Detective Cortes feel
the same way?

 

Oh, I guess we'll see.

 

At the very least,

 

this has proven the wisdom
of continuously training

 

in the combat arts.

 

You do, of course, need
to work on your defense.

 

You allowed Cortes to
land far too many punches.

 

I did.

 

But all that matters is
that I landed the last one.
