00:00:00,010 --> 00:00:01,760
Previously on "God Friended Me"...
2
00:00:01,770 --> 00:00:03,490
Pretending that you've
been friended by God.
3
00:00:03,550 --> 00:00:05,620
I mean, do your followers
think that's funny?
4
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:07,720
I keep telling him he needs
to get out and play.
5
00:00:08,790 --> 00:00:10,220
Ray Nicolette.
6
00:00:10,250 --> 00:00:11,660
He's a private investigator?
7
00:00:11,740 --> 00:00:13,730
Why don't you just tell me
what this is all about?
8
00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:15,780
I have an empty room in my place.
9
00:00:15,820 --> 00:00:17,700
I'm guessing it beats the
hell out of wherever
10
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,240
Social Services is
planning on sending you.
11
00:00:20,300 --> 00:00:22,400
Falken's been an urban
legend for almost a decade.
12
00:00:22,470 --> 00:00:25,090
Nobody know who he really is
beyond being a genius coder.
13
00:00:25,100 --> 00:00:26,870
Lucy and I might have made contact
14
00:00:26,900 --> 00:00:28,270
with someone who knows Falken.
15
00:00:28,300 --> 00:00:30,800
Look... it's Falken.
16
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:32,850
Cara, you got your world with Eli
17
00:00:32,860 --> 00:00:36,080
where you go out for dinners
and have romantic evenings
18
00:00:36,150 --> 00:00:37,400
on rooftop gardens.
19
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:38,890
Then you have the God Account world.
20
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:39,920
You got Miles.
21
00:00:39,950 --> 00:00:41,220
Oh, hey. I'm Nia.
22
00:00:41,290 --> 00:00:42,380
Hi.
23
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,350
And that is the latest
drop from DJ Trek,
24
00:01:02,380 --> 00:01:04,560
also known as my friend, Nia.
25
00:01:04,580 --> 00:01:05,840
Hello, hello.
26
00:01:05,910 --> 00:01:07,420
So before we took a music break,
27
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,910
you were telling me
that you're agnostic.
28
00:01:09,980 --> 00:01:11,080
I am many things,
29
00:01:11,150 --> 00:01:13,480
but agnostic is one of them, yes.
30
00:01:13,550 --> 00:01:16,340
Wow, that's like the
Switzerland of religion.
31
00:01:16,380 --> 00:01:18,490
I didn't take you for
one who'd play it safe.
32
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,060
How is keeping an open
mind playing it safe?
33
00:01:21,090 --> 00:01:23,680
God or no god, in live in the question.
34
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,410
No need for answers. I like the mystery.
35
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:27,749
Come on, Nia.
36
00:01:27,750 --> 00:01:29,420
Everyone wants to know the truth.
37
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:30,560
And then what?
38
00:01:30,570 --> 00:01:32,500
What happens when you
have all the answers?
39
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,090
Take the God Account for example.
40
00:01:34,100 --> 00:01:35,636
You any closer to finding
the mystery person
41
00:01:35,660 --> 00:01:37,060
- behind it all?
- Not yet,
42
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:38,600
but it's only a matter of time.
43
00:01:38,630 --> 00:01:41,130
Yeah, but what happens when you do?
44
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,860
What if you stop getting
Friend Suggestions?
45
00:01:45,730 --> 00:01:47,070
Your point?
46
00:01:47,130 --> 00:01:49,700
I know how much you like helping people.
47
00:01:50,370 --> 00:01:53,910
Getting the truth may end your journey.
48
00:01:53,980 --> 00:01:57,080
Maybe you can stand a little agnosticism
49
00:01:57,140 --> 00:01:58,640
when it comes to the God Account?
50
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,280
Way to bring it back around.
51
00:02:00,350 --> 00:02:02,449
Thank you so much for being my guest
52
00:02:02,450 --> 00:02:03,459
on the Millennial Prophet.
53
00:02:03,460 --> 00:02:06,890
You can check out more tracks
from DJ Trek on Soundcloud.
54
00:02:11,820 --> 00:02:13,030
Sorry.
55
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,300
Didn't mean to put you on the spot.
56
00:02:15,340 --> 00:02:17,800
No worries. I can take it.
57
00:02:17,870 --> 00:02:20,880
I was just trying to make the point
58
00:02:20,900 --> 00:02:22,550
that even if you get
your answer one day,
59
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,320
doesn't mean you have
to stop helping people.
60
00:02:24,810 --> 00:02:27,480
- I won't.
- Good.
61
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,720
So, how 'bout you keep that promise
62
00:02:29,740 --> 00:02:32,280
and come with me to the
hospital this afternoon?
63
00:02:32,350 --> 00:02:34,520
I spin for the kids at
the pediatric center.
64
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,650
I'll be there.
65
00:02:44,330 --> 00:02:46,090
Miles, Miles, you need to see this.
66
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:47,530
Oh.
67
00:02:49,060 --> 00:02:52,440
So, FIBONACCI61 sent a
picture of me and Lucy
68
00:02:52,460 --> 00:02:55,590
at Strawberry Fields with,
"Just wanted to say hello"
69
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:56,600
as the message.
70
00:02:56,610 --> 00:02:57,946
I mean, this is definitely Falken.
71
00:02:57,970 --> 00:02:59,350
He's definitely behind the God Account.
72
00:02:59,370 --> 00:03:00,710
Okay, I don't know.
73
00:03:00,780 --> 00:03:02,220
Look, whoever's behind the God Account
74
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,960
has gone through a whole lot of
trouble to remain anonymous.
75
00:03:04,980 --> 00:03:07,920
Why reach out now by
text message to you?
76
00:03:07,930 --> 00:03:08,930
I don't know, Miles.
77
00:03:08,940 --> 00:03:10,500
Maybe because I'm getting too close.
78
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:11,620
Yeah.
79
00:03:11,690 --> 00:03:13,070
Bro, it's clear Falken's
80
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,180
trying to back me off by intimidation.
81
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,100
- Guess what.
- Hmm?
82
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,260
Nobody intimidates Rakesh Singh.
83
00:03:20,330 --> 00:03:22,100
Except my mama. She's very scary.
84
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,079
_
85
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:28,100
Hey, the God Account
86
00:03:28,170 --> 00:03:31,040
just liked the fan page
of Graham Hastings!
87
00:03:31,110 --> 00:03:33,660
Uh, never heard of him.
88
00:03:33,820 --> 00:03:37,920
Graham Hastings is a legendary
Harlem chess player.
89
00:03:37,940 --> 00:03:40,200
Everyone thought he was gonna
be the next Bobby Fischer.
90
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:41,820
Then one day, he just disappeared
91
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,050
from the public eye.
92
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,180
- Hmm.
- No one has seen him since.
93
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,680
That was ten years ago.
94
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,540
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
95
00:03:49,580 --> 00:03:53,280
So, our first Friend Suggestion
after Falken makes contact
96
00:03:53,300 --> 00:03:55,399
just happens to be some recluse
97
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,299
who disappeared ten years ago?
98
00:03:57,300 --> 00:03:58,580
Graham's not Falken, Rakesh.
99
00:03:58,660 --> 00:04:00,200
I'm... I'm not saying he is,
100
00:04:00,270 --> 00:04:02,550
- but maybe there's a connection.
- There's a rumor going around
101
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:03,600
saying that Graham's gonna be
102
00:04:03,620 --> 00:04:05,480
at Washington Square Park today!
103
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:06,990
That must be why the God Account
104
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,270
sent us his name.
105
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,520
Looks like we got our
next Friend Suggestion.
106
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,210
Yeah, things with Eli are good.
107
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:16,820
So you keep saying.
108
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,590
'Cause they are.
109
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,720
_
110
00:04:21,840 --> 00:04:23,919
_
111
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:25,840
Are you really busy with work,
112
00:04:25,860 --> 00:04:29,580
or are you just bothered because
you saw Miles with Nia?
113
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,200
Why would that bother me?
114
00:04:31,370 --> 00:04:33,380
Probably because seeing him with her
115
00:04:33,390 --> 00:04:34,770
made you question whether or not
116
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:36,640
you made the right choice
to date Eli again.
117
00:04:38,570 --> 00:04:41,140
Okay, fine. I'll admit it.
118
00:04:41,310 --> 00:04:43,190
It was a little weird
seeing him with someone.
119
00:04:43,260 --> 00:04:45,860
And, yeah, okay.
120
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,960
I may have been the tiniest
bit jealous of Nia,
121
00:04:49,030 --> 00:04:52,230
but I'm not questioning
my choice to be with Eli.
122
00:04:52,300 --> 00:04:54,040
So why are you avoiding Miles?
123
00:04:54,050 --> 00:04:55,280
I'm not.
124
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,010
I'm just focusing on the
assignment Natalie gave me
125
00:04:58,020 --> 00:05:00,080
to prove to her that I'm
worthy of that promotion.
126
00:05:00,140 --> 00:05:02,340
If you say so.
127
00:05:11,970 --> 00:05:14,170
- Ali.
- Hi.
128
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,140
I brought you a little souvenir
129
00:05:16,210 --> 00:05:18,180
from the other night.
130
00:05:18,250 --> 00:05:19,910
Ohh...
131
00:05:19,980 --> 00:05:22,810
And here I thought my
cool days were behind me.
132
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,120
Oh, that's lovely. Thanks, Ali.
133
00:05:24,150 --> 00:05:25,480
You're welcome.
134
00:05:25,550 --> 00:05:27,220
Here.
135
00:05:27,290 --> 00:05:30,920
Dad, I just wanna say
136
00:05:30,990 --> 00:05:33,490
I am proud of you for having the courage
137
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,230
to find your love of music again.
138
00:05:35,300 --> 00:05:37,230
Well, it's easy to be courageous
139
00:05:37,250 --> 00:05:39,400
with my children by my side.
140
00:05:39,470 --> 00:05:41,170
Well, speaking of your children,
141
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:42,840
I couldn't help but notice you and Miles
142
00:05:42,850 --> 00:05:43,960
talking after your set.
143
00:05:44,980 --> 00:05:48,440
You guys looked like
father and son again.
144
00:05:50,180 --> 00:05:54,180
You know, I have to admit that
145
00:05:54,250 --> 00:05:58,720
I haven't felt this close to
Miles since... gosh, um...
146
00:05:58,790 --> 00:06:00,390
Since he was a kid.
147
00:06:00,450 --> 00:06:03,050
I can't quite put my finger on it,
148
00:06:03,070 --> 00:06:06,390
but he seems to have changed
over the last few months.
149
00:06:06,460 --> 00:06:09,160
Yeah, and it's pretty
obvious what's causing it.
150
00:06:10,900 --> 00:06:13,340
- Not the God Account.
- Dad...
151
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,230
Ali it's just fodder for his podcast,
152
00:06:16,300 --> 00:06:19,040
a story device to get attention.
153
00:06:19,110 --> 00:06:21,020
No, it's not.
154
00:06:21,380 --> 00:06:24,210
Look... and even if it
was, what does it matter?
155
00:06:24,220 --> 00:06:26,850
At the end of the day,
he's helping people.
156
00:06:26,910 --> 00:06:28,060
Same as you.
157
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,590
So, did Cara tell you why
she can't meet us today?
158
00:06:36,620 --> 00:06:38,320
She's usually leading the charge
159
00:06:38,390 --> 00:06:39,710
when it comes to the God Account.
160
00:06:39,780 --> 00:06:41,940
Said she was working on
a story, but no biggie.
161
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:43,160
Hey, we got this.
162
00:06:43,180 --> 00:06:44,830
Yeah.
163
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:47,440
- Whoa.
- Whoa.
164
00:06:47,900 --> 00:06:49,139
Word definitely got out
165
00:06:49,140 --> 00:06:51,160
that Graham may resurface today, huh?
166
00:06:51,180 --> 00:06:52,540
My dad used to tell stories
167
00:06:52,610 --> 00:06:54,710
about how people would
line up around the block
168
00:06:54,780 --> 00:06:56,580
just to get beat by Graham.
169
00:06:56,620 --> 00:06:59,110
He even claims he played him once.
170
00:06:59,180 --> 00:07:00,850
Well, I don't need to play him.
171
00:07:00,910 --> 00:07:03,480
I just need to know what
he knows about Falken.
172
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:06,900
- What?
- It's Cara.
173
00:07:08,860 --> 00:07:11,760
- I thought she was working.
- Yeah, me too.
174
00:07:13,030 --> 00:07:14,920
Guys. Sorry.
175
00:07:14,940 --> 00:07:16,200
What are you doing here?
176
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:17,426
I was gonna ask you the same thing.
177
00:07:17,450 --> 00:07:18,979
Well, my boss assigned me a story
178
00:07:18,980 --> 00:07:21,050
about some chess-genius-turned-recluse
179
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,600
named Graham Hastings.
180
00:07:22,660 --> 00:07:24,490
- What?
- Graham Hastings
181
00:07:24,500 --> 00:07:25,550
is our Friend Suggestion.
182
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:26,840
Yeah, y'all this is great.
183
00:07:26,910 --> 00:07:28,360
We get to work on this together.
184
00:07:28,780 --> 00:07:31,060
Great.
185
00:07:31,100 --> 00:07:32,760
How long have you been here?
186
00:07:33,210 --> 00:07:34,650
Almost an hour.
187
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,560
Yeah, this crowd is getting restless.
188
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:39,850
Well, looks like they're giving up.
189
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,150
Ugh, what a bust.
190
00:07:42,220 --> 00:07:44,520
All right, well, I'm
gonna head back to work,
191
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:45,990
keep on the Falken line.
192
00:07:46,060 --> 00:07:47,240
- Okay?
- Okay.
193
00:07:47,250 --> 00:07:49,490
Let me know if anything happens.
194
00:07:56,300 --> 00:07:58,000
You okay?
195
00:07:58,100 --> 00:08:00,400
Yeah. Yeah, it's fine.
196
00:08:00,420 --> 00:08:01,640
Fine.
197
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,080
So, how are we gonna find someone
198
00:08:03,110 --> 00:08:05,010
who clearly does not wanna be found?
199
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,450
Well, if it ain't my two
favorite do-gooders.
200
00:08:07,510 --> 00:08:09,240
Ray?
201
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,880
Hey. Okay, still not a hugger.
202
00:08:12,580 --> 00:08:14,500
Hey, Ray. It's good to see you.
203
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:15,650
You too, you too.
204
00:08:15,690 --> 00:08:17,460
So what dragged you two down here today?
205
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,500
Uh, we're looking for Graham Hastings.
206
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,760
Now, that's a hell of a coincidence.
207
00:08:24,820 --> 00:08:26,580
How so?
208
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,840
Because someone hired me to find him.
209
00:08:34,810 --> 00:08:39,400
- Synced & corrected by MementMori -

210
00:08:43,020 --> 00:08:44,959
So, how are things with Isaac?
211
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,460
Isaac's doing great.
212
00:08:46,530 --> 00:08:48,390
I got the kid enrolled in a good school.
213
00:08:48,460 --> 00:08:50,600
His teachers say he's keeping up.
214
00:08:50,660 --> 00:08:53,900
I gotta tell ya, I think
he's adapting pretty good,
215
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,380
considering everything
he's been through.
216
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,840
Ah...
217
00:08:58,910 --> 00:09:00,540
How 'bout you?
218
00:09:00,610 --> 00:09:02,020
- Are you adapting?
- Eh.
219
00:09:02,060 --> 00:09:04,080
Still working on it.
220
00:09:04,140 --> 00:09:06,660
It is nice having some company
around the house again.
221
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,160
You're a good man, Ray.
222
00:09:08,260 --> 00:09:10,720
Don't tell people that.
223
00:09:11,750 --> 00:09:14,620
And you still working for
the God Account thing, huh?
224
00:09:14,690 --> 00:09:16,550
Any closer to figuring
out who's behind it?
225
00:09:16,570 --> 00:09:19,560
Not yet, but they did send
Graham Hastings our way.
226
00:09:20,090 --> 00:09:22,750
So, wanna tell us who hired you?
227
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,960
No-ho-ho can do.
228
00:09:25,030 --> 00:09:26,800
What I can tell you
229
00:09:26,830 --> 00:09:30,280
is that Hastings is
completely off the grid.
230
00:09:30,500 --> 00:09:31,920
I was hoping he'd be here today,
231
00:09:31,940 --> 00:09:33,300
make my job a lot easier.
232
00:09:33,340 --> 00:09:35,370
But as you can see, nada.
233
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,400
Wait a minute.
234
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,450
You started the rumor on that fan page
235
00:09:40,510 --> 00:09:42,940
about Graham playing chess
here today, didn't you?
236
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:44,760
Guilty as charged.
237
00:09:44,820 --> 00:09:46,880
Isaac's got me using social media more.
238
00:09:46,900 --> 00:09:48,660
Thought I could lure
Graham out of hiding,
239
00:09:48,690 --> 00:09:50,270
but as you can see...
240
00:09:50,290 --> 00:09:51,599
- Nada.
- Well, look,
241
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,130
since we're all looking for
Graham, why don't we team up?
242
00:09:55,150 --> 00:09:58,540
- Yeah, like old times.
- Let's not get crazy.
243
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,480
As fun as that sounds,
we all know the sequels
244
00:10:01,500 --> 00:10:03,600
are never as good as the originals.
245
00:10:03,670 --> 00:10:05,160
I'm off, kids.
246
00:10:05,710 --> 00:10:08,440
And may the best private detective
247
00:10:08,470 --> 00:10:09,540
with over 20 years
248
00:10:09,550 --> 00:10:12,210
of law enforcement experience win.
249
00:10:14,620 --> 00:10:16,750
Any thoughts on where to start?
250
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,220
Actually, I do.
251
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:29,260
For God has not given
us a spirit of fear,
252
00:10:29,330 --> 00:10:31,860
but of power and of love...
253
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,460
- Hey.
- And of sound mind.
254
00:10:33,540 --> 00:10:35,370
Miles.
255
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,480
Dad, I want you to meet Cara Bloom.
256
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:38,520
Oh, of course.
257
00:10:38,530 --> 00:10:42,140
Cara, I have heard a lot about you.
258
00:10:42,210 --> 00:10:43,580
And I'm sorry we didn't get a chance
259
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,660
- to meet the other night.
- Yeah, yeah, me, too.
260
00:10:45,680 --> 00:10:46,950
Please, sit down.
261
00:10:47,010 --> 00:10:48,720
You were fantastic, by the way.
262
00:10:48,740 --> 00:10:52,400
Oh, thank you. Still
working off the rust.
263
00:10:52,750 --> 00:10:57,160
But I understand that you
and I share a connection.
264
00:10:57,220 --> 00:10:58,720
Your mother.
265
00:10:59,630 --> 00:11:02,280
Yeah, yeah, that's right.
266
00:11:02,300 --> 00:11:05,150
Susan was an incredible nurse.
267
00:11:05,220 --> 00:11:07,899
Always there when my wife needed her
268
00:11:07,900 --> 00:11:09,750
when she was battling cancer.
269
00:11:09,820 --> 00:11:12,480
A much-needed rock for both of us.
270
00:11:14,970 --> 00:11:16,840
Anyway, how's she doing?
271
00:11:16,910 --> 00:11:18,080
Uh, she's great.
272
00:11:18,140 --> 00:11:19,420
I'll let her know you say hello.
273
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,180
Please do.
274
00:11:21,250 --> 00:11:24,280
So, to what do I owe the visit?
275
00:11:24,350 --> 00:11:26,620
Do you remember Graham Hastings?
276
00:11:26,680 --> 00:11:28,590
Absolutely.
277
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:29,966
Didn't I ever tell you that
I played against him once?
278
00:11:29,990 --> 00:11:31,420
- You may have mentioned it.
- Ah.
279
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,530
Well, so, it was down
at St. Nicholas Park,
280
00:11:34,540 --> 00:11:35,760
and I'm setting up the chess pieces.
281
00:11:35,770 --> 00:11:38,200
And this kid sits down in front of me
282
00:11:38,260 --> 00:11:41,200
and asks if I wanna play. 12 moves.
283
00:11:41,270 --> 00:11:43,420
That's it took for him
to beat me... 12 moves.
284
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,040
We heard he disappeared.
285
00:11:45,140 --> 00:11:46,680
Do you know what happened to him?
286
00:11:46,740 --> 00:11:47,940
Or where he went?
287
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,880
Why the sudden interest?
288
00:11:54,380 --> 00:11:56,700
Uh, I'm writing a story for "Catapult."
289
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:58,550
Miles is helping me.
290
00:11:58,620 --> 00:12:01,160
Oh, well, if I were looking
for Graham Hastings,
291
00:12:01,180 --> 00:12:03,940
I would start with the person
that knew him the best.
292
00:12:03,980 --> 00:12:05,720
- Who's that?
- Aleksander Leff.
293
00:12:05,790 --> 00:12:07,930
Back in the day, he and Graham
294
00:12:07,990 --> 00:12:12,100
were the Muhammad Ali
and Joe Frazier of chess.
295
00:12:12,110 --> 00:12:14,840
I always wished I had a
chance to watch them play.
296
00:12:14,940 --> 00:12:16,500
So, they were rivals?
297
00:12:16,540 --> 00:12:17,819
Oh, man.
298
00:12:17,820 --> 00:12:20,910
They would meet at the
finals of every tournament.
299
00:12:20,970 --> 00:12:22,610
Aleksander could never beat him.
300
00:12:22,620 --> 00:12:25,060
Until, of course, he did.
301
00:12:25,180 --> 00:12:28,600
After that, Graham Hastings retreated
302
00:12:28,620 --> 00:12:29,950
and was never heard from again.
303
00:12:29,970 --> 00:12:32,000
That sounds like a poor sport.
304
00:12:32,070 --> 00:12:35,470
Or he accomplished
everything he set out to.
305
00:12:35,540 --> 00:12:37,050
The truth is that nobody knows
306
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,940
why Graham Hastings disappeared.
307
00:12:41,180 --> 00:12:42,579
Sorry, Miles, you'll have to excuse me.
308
00:12:42,580 --> 00:12:45,350
I have to set up for
an afternoon service.
309
00:12:45,420 --> 00:12:47,080
- Thanks, Dad.
- Good to see you.
310
00:12:47,220 --> 00:12:49,340
- Good luck with the story.
- Thank you.
311
00:12:51,420 --> 00:12:53,699
Why didn't you just tell him
it was about the God Account?
312
00:12:53,700 --> 00:12:55,216
'Cause he doesn't wanna know.
313
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:56,250
Oh.
314
00:12:56,420 --> 00:12:58,630
- _
- I'm sorry, I have plans with Nia.
315
00:12:58,700 --> 00:13:02,100
Can we meet back up later?
It'll only take a couple hours.
316
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:03,560
Yeah, of course.
317
00:13:03,570 --> 00:13:05,509
I'll try and track down an
address for Aleksander Leff.
318
00:13:05,510 --> 00:13:07,180
- Text you if I find anything.
- Okay.
319
00:13:22,980 --> 00:13:26,120
- Thanks, Nia!
- That was fun.
320
00:13:26,170 --> 00:13:27,179
Thanks, Nia.
321
00:13:27,180 --> 00:13:29,700
You're welcome, Matty. High-five.
322
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,500
Oh, I got something for you.
323
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:34,600
Hmm...
324
00:13:40,020 --> 00:13:42,080
Can I see your patch?
325
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:51,910
Now you got tons of street cred.
326
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,720
What was the, uh, patch on his arm for?
327
00:13:59,780 --> 00:14:02,220
People wear them to fight off the nausea
328
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,479
when they're going through chemo.
329
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,560
Unfortunately for me,
they weren't invented
330
00:14:06,580 --> 00:14:08,260
till after I was cancer-free.
331
00:14:08,380 --> 00:14:11,070
You were impressive with these kids.
332
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,470
Well, music was my
lifeline when I was sick.
333
00:14:14,540 --> 00:14:18,620
It's just my way of giving back.
334
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,310
- _
- I'm sorry, I have to go.
335
00:14:25,380 --> 00:14:27,250
- God Account?
- Yeah.
336
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,150
Yeah, we're trying to track down
337
00:14:29,220 --> 00:14:30,890
this reclusive chess prodigy.
338
00:14:30,950 --> 00:14:32,590
- Hmm.
- I'll text you?
339
00:14:43,100 --> 00:14:45,270
- Cara.
- Hey.
340
00:14:45,340 --> 00:14:46,830
'Sup?
341
00:14:51,580 --> 00:14:53,270
So, how did it got with Nia?
342
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,310
It went... well.
343
00:14:59,650 --> 00:15:00,780
Well?
344
00:15:00,850 --> 00:15:01,960
Hmm.
345
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,390
Well, she seems really nice.
346
00:15:06,660 --> 00:15:09,880
How are things with Eli?
Things still going good?
347
00:15:09,900 --> 00:15:11,760
Yeah. Yeah, things are good.
348
00:15:11,830 --> 00:15:13,620
Oh, this is 18. This is it.
349
00:15:15,780 --> 00:15:17,140
Yeah.
350
00:15:26,380 --> 00:15:27,880
Aleksander Leff?
351
00:15:27,940 --> 00:15:29,360
That's right. Can I help you?
352
00:15:29,380 --> 00:15:30,940
I'm Miles Finer. This is Cara Bloom.
353
00:15:30,950 --> 00:15:32,680
We were hoping to ask
you a few questions
354
00:15:32,700 --> 00:15:33,950
about Graham Hastings.
355
00:15:34,020 --> 00:15:35,920
I'm sorry. I don't give interview.
356
00:15:35,990 --> 00:15:39,320
Let 'em in, otherwise they'll
just stand out there all day.
357
00:15:41,190 --> 00:15:42,780
Took you long enough.
358
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,120
So, why are you looking for Graham?
359
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:55,640
I never understood why he
walked away from everything.
360
00:15:55,700 --> 00:15:58,540
That question has haunted
me for a decade.
361
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,460
I heard you two had a
pretty intense rivalry.
362
00:16:03,110 --> 00:16:04,800
That's one way to look at it.
363
00:16:05,220 --> 00:16:08,850
The truth is, we were best friends.
364
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,880
Had been since we were kids.
365
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,090
We played our first game
together when we were eight.
366
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,490
From that moment on, our
lives were tied together.
367
00:16:18,590 --> 00:16:21,230
But as much as we were the same,
368
00:16:21,250 --> 00:16:22,620
we came from different worlds.
369
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,060
What do you mean?
370
00:16:25,070 --> 00:16:26,480
I grew up in privilege.
371
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,940
My father made sure I
had the best teachers,
372
00:16:30,010 --> 00:16:31,840
that I studied day and night.
373
00:16:31,940 --> 00:16:33,560
All he had was his grandfather.
374
00:16:33,570 --> 00:16:35,840
Didn't have any money, any training.
375
00:16:35,910 --> 00:16:38,580
Never even read a book about chess.
376
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,760
His talent was God-given.
377
00:16:42,220 --> 00:16:44,550
I couldn't help but envy that.
378
00:16:46,890 --> 00:16:48,990
Now that we're all caught up here,
379
00:16:49,060 --> 00:16:50,790
why don't we take this outside
380
00:16:50,860 --> 00:16:53,360
and have a chat about how we're
gonna find this guy, huh?
381
00:16:53,430 --> 00:16:56,920
Hold on... I mean, that
was ten years ago.
382
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,560
Why hire Ray now?
383
00:17:09,380 --> 00:17:10,999
Because you're sick.
384
00:17:14,580 --> 00:17:15,900
Aren't you?
385
00:17:18,550 --> 00:17:20,060
Pancreatic cancer.
386
00:17:20,820 --> 00:17:23,560
Doctors say I only have
a few months left.
387
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,680
I need to speak with Graham
before it's too late.
388
00:17:33,470 --> 00:17:35,419
I wanna find this Graham guy,
389
00:17:35,420 --> 00:17:37,169
close my case, and get paid.
390
00:17:37,170 --> 00:17:38,800
Any thoughts?
391
00:17:38,820 --> 00:17:41,070
Yeah, we all work together.
392
00:17:41,140 --> 00:17:44,079
If by "work together" you
mean "split my fee,"
393
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:45,259
I must politely decline.
394
00:17:45,260 --> 00:17:46,780
We're not interested in your fee.
395
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:48,340
Then by all means, proceed.
396
00:17:48,370 --> 00:17:50,420
I think the God Account
wants us to find Graham
397
00:17:50,490 --> 00:17:51,990
for the same reason you do.
398
00:17:52,020 --> 00:17:53,440
To put him in front of Aleksander.
399
00:17:53,460 --> 00:17:56,960
Now any idea what he wants to tell him?
400
00:17:57,030 --> 00:17:58,690
He didn't offer, I didn't ask.
401
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,719
But usually when a client
wants me to track down
402
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,580
someone from their past,
it's about making amends.
403
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,160
Hmm. So, what'd you find?
404
00:18:05,180 --> 00:18:06,470
Not a hell of a lot.
405
00:18:06,530 --> 00:18:08,030
I mean, he's off the grid ten years,
406
00:18:08,100 --> 00:18:10,500
and it ain't hard to
disappear in this city.
407
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:11,799
Yeah, but people knew him.
408
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:13,120
Or at least they knew his name.
409
00:18:13,180 --> 00:18:15,196
In order to really disappear
he'd have to change it.
410
00:18:15,220 --> 00:18:16,700
I knew I liked you.
411
00:18:16,740 --> 00:18:18,810
I was on that same line of thought.
412
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,910
I got a buddy down at the
Department of Records.
413
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,520
I was heading over there when
you two crashed the party.
414
00:18:23,590 --> 00:18:26,190
What about you? God give you any leads?
415
00:18:26,250 --> 00:18:27,320
Just the fan page.
416
00:18:27,340 --> 00:18:29,420
I already been there. Full of crazies.
417
00:18:29,490 --> 00:18:31,690
The God Account never
does anything random.
418
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:33,790
Whoever created this fan page
419
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,860
seems to know a lot about Graham.
420
00:18:37,180 --> 00:18:39,259
Maybe we can track them down.
421
00:18:39,260 --> 00:18:40,669
See if they know anything.
422
00:18:40,670 --> 00:18:42,390
Makes sense. Sounds good.
423
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:43,840
You guys track down that lead,
424
00:18:43,910 --> 00:18:46,470
and I'll text you if I get
a new name on Graham.
425
00:18:47,460 --> 00:18:50,640
You mind if I go with you?
It'd be nice to catch up.
426
00:18:50,660 --> 00:18:52,280
Yeah, sure. What the hell?
427
00:18:52,350 --> 00:18:55,060
Okay, I'll head back to IdentitySeal,
428
00:18:55,100 --> 00:18:58,049
see if Rakesh and I can dig
up anything on this fan page.
429
00:18:58,050 --> 00:18:59,840
Okay.
430
00:19:00,020 --> 00:19:02,960
You really think whoever runs
this crazy Facebook fan page
431
00:19:02,980 --> 00:19:04,490
actually knows where Graham is?
432
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:05,960
It's worth a shot.
433
00:19:05,970 --> 00:19:08,120
How was going to the hospital with Nia?
434
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,430
Good. She's actually pretty amazing.
435
00:19:12,500 --> 00:19:14,000
Yeah?
436
00:19:14,070 --> 00:19:15,640
You gonna start seeing her?
437
00:19:15,660 --> 00:19:18,770
I haven't decided, but
I mean, I do like her.
438
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,910
Well, then there's nothing
holding you back.
439
00:19:23,980 --> 00:19:25,620
You mean Cara?
440
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,300
Was I that obvious?
441
00:19:28,360 --> 00:19:30,120
Yeah.
442
00:19:30,140 --> 00:19:31,920
Look, she's with Eli and she's happy.
443
00:19:31,950 --> 00:19:35,690
And I'm happy for her. So, no.
444
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,750
There's nothing holding me back.
445
00:19:38,990 --> 00:19:40,220
All right. Cracked the admin.
446
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:41,739
Looks like the page is run by a guy
447
00:19:41,740 --> 00:19:43,329
named Larry Bartholomew.
448
00:19:43,330 --> 00:19:45,380
Owner and proprietor of Chess Forum.
449
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,030
Oh, I know that place. It's
a chess shop in Harlem.
450
00:19:48,100 --> 00:19:49,520
I used to go with my dad as a kid
451
00:19:49,540 --> 00:19:50,759
when I was learning how to play.
452
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:52,440
- Come on, let's go.
- Okay.
453
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,750
So, ten years ago, Graham Hastings
454
00:19:56,780 --> 00:19:59,280
changed his name to John Turner.
455
00:19:59,350 --> 00:20:01,710
Kept it generic for a
reason I'm guessing.
456
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:02,840
Let's see here...
457
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:04,879
Oh-ho, yep.
458
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:06,640
Almost 50 of 'em in New York.
459
00:20:06,780 --> 00:20:08,790
Any ideas on how to narrow it down?
460
00:20:08,860 --> 00:20:10,990
Yeah. One at a time.
461
00:20:13,730 --> 00:20:15,799
So, Isaac keeping you busy?
462
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,360
Oh-ho-ho-ho.
463
00:20:17,430 --> 00:20:18,680
Is he a Giants fan yet?
464
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,800
Eh, still working on that.
465
00:20:20,870 --> 00:20:23,020
This season hasn't made it any easier.
466
00:20:24,970 --> 00:20:26,210
Sorry, it's just my boss.
467
00:20:26,270 --> 00:20:27,900
Oh, yeah. How's the writing?
468
00:20:27,940 --> 00:20:29,180
- It's really good.
- Yeah?
469
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:30,240
Yeah.
470
00:20:30,250 --> 00:20:31,840
I'm actually up for this promotion,
471
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,380
and I think that this story
about Graham Hastings
472
00:20:34,450 --> 00:20:35,616
might be the one that gets it for me.
473
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,150
Finding a reclusive chess genius?
474
00:20:38,220 --> 00:20:39,920
It sounds like a Pulitzer to me.
475
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,660
You know, it's nice seeing you
and Miles still together.
476
00:20:44,730 --> 00:20:46,040
Oh, no. We're just friends.
477
00:20:46,060 --> 00:20:47,330
Not together.
478
00:20:48,430 --> 00:20:50,430
You know you say that a lot?
479
00:20:50,500 --> 00:20:53,270
I'm just saying, it doesn't
take a private detective
480
00:20:53,330 --> 00:20:55,000
to see the chemistry.
481
00:20:55,070 --> 00:20:57,300
We both know it takes
more than just chemistry.
482
00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,500
Didn't with my wife and me.
483
00:21:01,340 --> 00:21:03,980
It's just never been
the right time for us.
484
00:21:04,100 --> 00:21:05,860
And now I'm seeing someone.
485
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,100
I'm actually back
together with my ex, Eli.
486
00:21:08,220 --> 00:21:09,740
Things with him are good.
487
00:21:11,050 --> 00:21:13,350
Well, kid, I don't know
much, but I do know this:
488
00:21:13,420 --> 00:21:15,920
"Good" ain't great.
489
00:21:15,980 --> 00:21:17,680
"Great's" what you're shooting for.
490
00:21:17,790 --> 00:21:19,730
You know, when it comes
to affairs of the heart,
491
00:21:19,790 --> 00:21:22,439
"great" is what knocks you on your ass
492
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,500
and lets you know that
you can stop looking.
493
00:21:24,570 --> 00:21:27,399
Miles aside, if you're happy
with this Eli guy, fine.
494
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,940
But if you're just buying time,
495
00:21:29,950 --> 00:21:32,069
waiting for "great" to come along,
496
00:21:32,070 --> 00:21:34,710
you should do you both a
favor and keep looking.
497
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:44,250
_
498
00:21:44,270 --> 00:21:47,170
Graham changed his name to John Turner.
499
00:21:53,930 --> 00:21:56,700
- Here to play or purchase?
- Actually, neither.
500
00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:58,960
We're wondering about your
Graham Hastings fan page.
501
00:21:59,030 --> 00:22:00,400
What about it?
502
00:22:00,470 --> 00:22:02,530
We're trying to track Graham down.
503
00:22:02,650 --> 00:22:04,890
Best of luck with that.
504
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,000
Look, I know it's a long shot,
505
00:22:07,090 --> 00:22:09,560
but if you know anything,
it'd be really appreciated.
506
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,600
Did Graham ever play here?
507
00:22:13,660 --> 00:22:15,130
Of course he did.
508
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:16,880
I knew he was special
from the beginning.
509
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,970
In fact, I gave Graham his
first chess set for free
510
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:21,500
since he couldn't afford one.
511
00:22:21,570 --> 00:22:23,600
So, when's the last time you saw him?
512
00:22:23,860 --> 00:22:26,440
Same as anyone. About ten years ago.
513
00:22:32,380 --> 00:22:33,620
Wow.
514
00:22:33,740 --> 00:22:36,360
Where did you get all of this stuff?
515
00:22:37,050 --> 00:22:39,420
Other collectors mostly.
516
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,460
They're all authentic if that's
what you're worried about.
517
00:22:42,530 --> 00:22:43,560
Judge.
518
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,760
Let me know if there's
anything you like.
519
00:22:48,270 --> 00:22:49,569
This is a dead end, bro.
520
00:22:49,570 --> 00:22:51,170
Let's just go back to IdentitySeal
521
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,370
and run "John Turner"
through the database.
522
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,160
We don't have to.
523
00:22:57,910 --> 00:22:59,299
Look at the return label.
524
00:22:59,300 --> 00:23:01,300
"John Turner."
525
00:23:01,360 --> 00:23:02,539
That's why Larry has so many
526
00:23:02,540 --> 00:23:03,880
of Graham Hastings items for sale,
527
00:23:03,900 --> 00:23:05,980
because he's getting them
from Graham himself.
528
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:07,860
Got it.
529
00:23:27,510 --> 00:23:28,980
Can I help you?
530
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,960
Uh... you're Graham Hastings.
531
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,260
Look, I just wanna be left alone.
532
00:23:36,300 --> 00:23:37,326
I don't know how you found me.
533
00:23:37,350 --> 00:23:39,150
Wait... h-hold on.
534
00:23:39,220 --> 00:23:41,500
We're here because of Aleksander Leff.
535
00:23:43,450 --> 00:23:46,300
Please. Just hear us out.
536
00:23:52,590 --> 00:23:54,180
So what does Aleksander want?
537
00:23:54,290 --> 00:23:56,820
Honestly, we don't know that.
538
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,800
We were kind of hoping
you could tell us.
539
00:23:58,850 --> 00:24:01,930
I have no idea. And to
be honest, I don't care.
540
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:04,840
You can tell Aleksander I have
541
00:24:04,850 --> 00:24:06,960
no interest in reliving the past.
542
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,440
He's sick.
543
00:24:13,100 --> 00:24:15,950
He doesn't have much time.
544
00:24:21,650 --> 00:24:23,450
I'm sorry to hear that.
545
00:24:23,700 --> 00:24:26,520
I really am, but it
doesn't change anything.
546
00:24:26,590 --> 00:24:28,660
You won't even talk to him?
547
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:35,070
I know how hard that loss was.
548
00:24:35,130 --> 00:24:37,260
Everyone does.
549
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,340
You think you understand
what happened that day?
550
00:24:39,350 --> 00:24:40,350
No, no. I don't.
551
00:24:40,360 --> 00:24:42,240
Please, explain it to me.
552
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,510
To most people, chess is just a game.
553
00:24:47,940 --> 00:24:51,320
But to a few of us, it means
something so much more.
554
00:24:53,820 --> 00:24:55,820
My grandfather raised me.
555
00:24:55,890 --> 00:24:57,380
Man never graduated high school,
556
00:24:57,390 --> 00:24:58,820
but he knew the game.
557
00:24:58,890 --> 00:25:01,060
And when he saw what I could do,
558
00:25:01,130 --> 00:25:04,430
he knew it was my
ticket to a better life.
559
00:25:04,500 --> 00:25:06,276
Chess doesn't care about
the color of your skin
560
00:25:06,300 --> 00:25:08,370
or how much money you have.
561
00:25:08,430 --> 00:25:11,470
All it cares about is how good you are.
562
00:25:12,670 --> 00:25:14,340
The more people told me how good I was,
563
00:25:14,410 --> 00:25:16,610
that I was unbeatable, the
more I believed them.
564
00:25:17,980 --> 00:25:20,940
And then when I lost to Aleksander,
565
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:22,840
that all changed.
566
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,220
But it was just one loss.
567
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:26,680
You don't get it.
568
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,229
Since I was a kid, people told me
569
00:25:28,230 --> 00:25:29,950
I was the next Bobby Fischer.
570
00:25:30,020 --> 00:25:31,860
You hear it so long, you
start to believe it.
571
00:25:33,660 --> 00:25:37,060
But after I lost, that's all
anyone wanted to talk about.
572
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:38,830
Shattered my confidence.
573
00:25:38,900 --> 00:25:41,920
I thought if I played in
a few local tournaments
574
00:25:41,930 --> 00:25:43,460
under assumed names,
575
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,500
played in a park with people
who didn't recognize me...
576
00:25:46,570 --> 00:25:48,210
You could get it back.
577
00:25:50,060 --> 00:25:52,240
But I kept losing.
578
00:25:52,310 --> 00:25:55,780
I realized I lost more than confidence.
579
00:25:55,850 --> 00:25:58,060
I lost my love for the game.
580
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,520
So, yes, I walked away.
581
00:26:02,590 --> 00:26:04,100
Never looked back.
582
00:26:04,120 --> 00:26:06,440
Maybe talking to Aleksander
will bring you some peace.
583
00:26:06,460 --> 00:26:08,600
How? I don't blame him
for what happened.
584
00:26:08,620 --> 00:26:10,180
Maybe he does.
585
00:26:10,260 --> 00:26:12,410
He went to a whole lot of
trouble to try to find you.
586
00:26:12,430 --> 00:26:14,960
All you have to do is listen.
587
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,500
You were his best friend.
588
00:26:24,610 --> 00:26:27,500
Tell him to come over tonight.
589
00:26:28,460 --> 00:26:29,960
We will.
590
00:26:33,220 --> 00:26:35,300
Sorry, sorry. One more
super quick thing.
591
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:39,100
You wouldn't happen to know
the name Falken, would you?
592
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,390
Falken?
593
00:26:41,460 --> 00:26:43,880
No, sorry.
594
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,050
You know, I'm glad you
found him and all,
595
00:26:52,070 --> 00:26:53,360
but you should have called me.
596
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:54,960
- Us.
- Us... right.
597
00:26:55,140 --> 00:26:57,740
We were working on this together.
598
00:26:57,810 --> 00:26:59,850
It's kind of a breach of
the private detective
599
00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:01,310
code of conduct, to be honest.
600
00:27:01,380 --> 00:27:04,720
I'm sorry, okay? It
all happened so fast.
601
00:27:04,780 --> 00:27:07,180
As soon as we saw the name
on that return address,
602
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:08,590
we just raced over there.
603
00:27:08,650 --> 00:27:11,660
The private detective code of conduct?
604
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:13,120
You are making that up, aren't you?
605
00:27:13,190 --> 00:27:15,860
- What gave it away?
- What's up, guys?
606
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,460
Oh, Ali, this is Ray. Ray,
this is my sister, Ali.
607
00:27:19,530 --> 00:27:21,100
- Pleasure.
- Ray's a PI.
608
00:27:21,120 --> 00:27:22,400
We helped him on a case a while back,
609
00:27:22,420 --> 00:27:24,010
though I doubt he would admit that.
610
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:25,770
Yeah, yeah. Fine, you know what?
611
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,540
As a thank you, why
don't I buy us a round?
612
00:27:28,610 --> 00:27:31,580
Assuming that it's happy hour prices?
613
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,460
I think I can ring up a
family and friends discount.
614
00:27:38,380 --> 00:27:39,980
Ray Nicolette.
615
00:27:40,050 --> 00:27:41,420
Yeah.
616
00:27:42,690 --> 00:27:44,390
Ah, damn.
617
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,460
Are you okay?
618
00:27:47,580 --> 00:27:50,090
Yeah, I understand.
619
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,560
That was Aleksander's wife.
620
00:27:52,630 --> 00:27:54,130
He's in the hospital.
621
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:55,460
Is he okay?
622
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:56,559
She says he's stable,
623
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:58,440
but he's not in any
shape to meet Graham.
624
00:27:58,500 --> 00:27:59,940
At least not at his house
625
00:28:00,020 --> 00:28:01,620
Okay, well, we'll bring Graham to him.
626
00:28:01,700 --> 00:28:02,720
Good idea.
627
00:28:04,260 --> 00:28:06,410
- Miles.
- Dad.
628
00:28:07,980 --> 00:28:10,700
- This is Ray Nicolette.
- Hi, I'm Arthur.
629
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,679
Pleasure. Is this like a family bar, or?
630
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:15,200
Cara and I were just heading out.
631
00:28:15,220 --> 00:28:17,260
We found Graham Hastings.
632
00:28:18,190 --> 00:28:19,659
- You're kidding.
- No.
633
00:28:19,660 --> 00:28:22,360
We're heading to reunite
him with Aleksander Leff.
634
00:28:22,460 --> 00:28:24,140
All right. So, tomorrow, chess.
635
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:25,900
You tell me all about it.
636
00:28:25,940 --> 00:28:27,200
- I'll be there.
- All right.
637
00:28:28,780 --> 00:28:31,600
Are you kidding? I just
opened three beers.
638
00:28:31,670 --> 00:28:33,440
That's not gonna be a problem.
639
00:28:33,510 --> 00:28:35,240
- Hey, darling.
- Hi, Dad.
640
00:28:35,260 --> 00:28:36,440
Hey, beer Arthur?
641
00:28:36,510 --> 00:28:38,520
Thank you. Don't mind if I do.
642
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,959
So, how do you and
Miles know each other?
643
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:45,400
That is one hell of a story actually.
644
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,880
Well, isn't that why
people come to a bar,
645
00:28:47,900 --> 00:28:49,100
to hear a good story?
646
00:28:51,890 --> 00:28:54,470
My wife Abby died a year ago,
647
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,139
and for reasons that
sound absolutely insane
648
00:28:57,140 --> 00:28:59,540
when you say it out loud...
649
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,500
I think she sent your son
to help me through it.
650
00:29:04,300 --> 00:29:05,620
Oh.
651
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,700
Oh, does this have something
to do with the God Account?
652
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:10,959
Mm-hmm. Yep.
653
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:12,959
A couple months ago
they sent him my name.
654
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:14,240
Now Graham's.
655
00:29:14,310 --> 00:29:17,960
Apparently a hell of a lot
of people in between.
656
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:19,850
You know, I don't know
who's behind it all.
657
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:21,670
I don't know why they chose your son.
658
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,520
But I do know this:
659
00:29:23,590 --> 00:29:26,360
that kid's making a
hell of a difference.
660
00:29:26,430 --> 00:29:27,690
Huh.
661
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,760
I'm sorry to interrupt,
662
00:29:35,860 --> 00:29:38,360
but there's someone here to see you.
663
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,480
Hello, Aleksander.
664
00:29:44,340 --> 00:29:45,640
Been a while.
665
00:29:47,180 --> 00:29:48,880
I'm sorry it took something like this
666
00:29:48,900 --> 00:29:50,840
for me to finally reach out.
667
00:29:52,180 --> 00:29:54,000
How you feeling?
668
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:55,640
Been better.
669
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,380
There's something you need to know
670
00:30:08,460 --> 00:30:10,180
about our last game.
671
00:30:10,540 --> 00:30:13,920
I so desperately wanted to beat you.
672
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,340
I'm not sure I'm following.
673
00:30:18,410 --> 00:30:21,080
I was there that day, remember?
674
00:30:21,150 --> 00:30:23,999
You beat me, fair and square.
675
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,120
No, I didn't.
676
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,920
A couple days before our match,
677
00:30:33,990 --> 00:30:36,280
I came across your chess journals.
678
00:30:36,540 --> 00:30:38,620
You read my journals?
679
00:30:38,820 --> 00:30:42,399
I knew that you recorded
every game you played,
680
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,280
every move of your opponent.
681
00:30:47,940 --> 00:30:51,500
I came across your notes on a
game we'd recently played.
682
00:30:51,710 --> 00:30:56,110
You'd made a note that
I had missed a move,
683
00:30:56,180 --> 00:30:59,860
one that would have set
me up to beat you.
684
00:31:00,580 --> 00:31:03,190
You recreated the game.
685
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,279
The only reason I won that day,
686
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,740
was because you showed me how.
687
00:31:09,430 --> 00:31:11,040
You were my only friend.
688
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,250
You knew more than anyone
I had nothing but chess.
689
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,540
- Nothing.
- Look, I'm sorry.
690
00:31:17,660 --> 00:31:22,160
I never thought losing one
game would do that to you.
691
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:28,710
You took away the one
thing I loved most.
692
00:31:30,650 --> 00:31:33,240
You took it all away.
693
00:31:33,740 --> 00:31:36,420
If you're looking for absolution,
694
00:31:36,470 --> 00:31:38,990
I won't give it to you.
695
00:31:44,660 --> 00:31:46,329
Graham. Graham... wait.
696
00:31:46,330 --> 00:31:47,760
Please. Wait.
697
00:31:47,830 --> 00:31:49,460
- Graham...
- There's nothing more to say here.
698
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:50,819
There is so much more to say.
699
00:31:50,820 --> 00:31:52,119
You haven't even given him a chance.
700
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,180
Why do I need to give him a chance?
701
00:31:54,340 --> 00:31:57,240
He's the one who stole the last
ten years of my life from me.
702
00:31:57,310 --> 00:31:59,180
I get that. I do.
703
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:02,460
But maybe his apology is a way
for you to get chess back.
704
00:32:02,620 --> 00:32:05,620
You said you couldn't
understand how he beat you.
705
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:07,850
And not knowing made you
question everything
706
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,920
you thought you knew to be true.
707
00:32:09,990 --> 00:32:12,890
About you. About the game.
708
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:14,680
Now you have your answer.
709
00:32:15,340 --> 00:32:17,280
You have the truth.
710
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,040
Why not use this to
reclaim what you lost?
711
00:32:20,060 --> 00:32:21,400
It's too late.
712
00:32:21,470 --> 00:32:22,719
That truth doesn't change what happened.
713
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,600
But it could change what will happen.
714
00:32:25,620 --> 00:32:30,740
If you don't at least
try to forgive him,
715
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:33,500
it might be a bigger mistake
than the one he made.
716
00:32:36,150 --> 00:32:37,460
I'm sorry.
717
00:32:38,180 --> 00:32:40,300
I can't.
718
00:32:40,340 --> 00:32:42,050
I just can't.
719
00:33:05,230 --> 00:33:07,330
Damn it.
720
00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,980
You're really gonna leave your
rook out there like that?
721
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:02,690
It's part of my plan.
722
00:34:02,750 --> 00:34:03,860
You have a plan?
723
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:05,520
Is that a challenge?
724
00:34:05,590 --> 00:34:07,619
No, I haven't played in a while.
725
00:34:07,620 --> 00:34:10,030
I could take it easy on you.
726
00:34:12,330 --> 00:34:14,930
Thanks.
727
00:34:54,420 --> 00:34:55,560
Check.
728
00:35:01,750 --> 00:35:04,400
- Who taught you how to play?
- My dad.
729
00:35:08,780 --> 00:35:11,720
Is there anything we can
do for you before we go?
730
00:35:11,790 --> 00:35:13,620
Thank you, no.
731
00:35:13,690 --> 00:35:15,420
You've already done so much.
732
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:18,750
Annabelle, where have you been?
733
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,100
She was playing chess...
734
00:35:21,170 --> 00:35:23,370
with me.
735
00:35:24,370 --> 00:35:25,860
Come on, sweetheart.
736
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,380
Let's give Daddy and
his friends a moment.
737
00:35:32,180 --> 00:35:34,880
Is she part of the reason
you were searching for me?
738
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:36,780
Partly, yes.
739
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,320
Her love of the game.
740
00:35:40,380 --> 00:35:45,490
Her passion. Her God-given talent.
741
00:35:46,490 --> 00:35:47,620
I know what I stole,
742
00:35:47,630 --> 00:35:49,950
and I know I can never
give it back to you.
743
00:35:49,980 --> 00:35:53,960
But I'm hoping that maybe she can.
744
00:35:54,100 --> 00:35:56,330
What are you talking about?
745
00:35:56,460 --> 00:35:58,760
She's going to need a teacher.
746
00:36:02,110 --> 00:36:04,740
You're the only one I
trust to pass on the game
747
00:36:04,750 --> 00:36:07,380
that we both once loved.
748
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,450
That I know you could love again.
749
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:12,820
I don't know.
750
00:36:15,140 --> 00:36:16,959
It's gonna be hard
work getting Annabelle
751
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,020
to lose all those bad
habits you taught you.
752
00:36:23,660 --> 00:36:26,000
But I'll do my best.
753
00:36:27,270 --> 00:36:30,280
I'm just gonna need one thing in return.
754
00:36:30,460 --> 00:36:32,260
What's that?
755
00:36:32,380 --> 00:36:33,460
A rematch.
756
00:36:50,590 --> 00:36:52,180
Miles, Cara.
757
00:36:54,430 --> 00:36:56,520
I wanted to thank you.
758
00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,999
If you hadn't shown up today,
who knows what the next
759
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:01,246
ten years would have looked like.
760
00:37:01,270 --> 00:37:03,030
I'm glad we could be of some help.
761
00:37:03,100 --> 00:37:07,160
Yeah, if there's anything I
can do for you, just ask.
762
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,510
Actually, there's one thing.
763
00:37:10,580 --> 00:37:13,260
I was kinda hoping to
score an interview.
764
00:37:13,780 --> 00:37:16,520
I think people wanna hear your story.
765
00:37:20,290 --> 00:37:21,880
I guess it's time to tell it.
766
00:37:22,780 --> 00:37:24,950
Come by the apartment
tomorrow. We'll talk.
767
00:37:25,020 --> 00:37:27,359
Oh, one last thing.
768
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,500
Earlier, your friend
asked if I knew Falken.
769
00:37:30,030 --> 00:37:32,600
I do... or at least I did.
770
00:37:32,660 --> 00:37:35,980
I didn't tell you before,
because I didn't know you.
771
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,500
We met at a tournament 15 years ago.
772
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:40,470
He approached me and
said he was building
773
00:37:40,500 --> 00:37:41,770
a special kind of computer.
774
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:43,640
Wanted me to play chess against it.
775
00:37:43,660 --> 00:37:45,660
I was intrigued, so I did.
776
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:47,299
Beat the damn thing every time.
777
00:37:47,300 --> 00:37:48,960
Though, it did get better.
778
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:52,140
After a few months, he thanked me
779
00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,440
and I never saw or heard from him again.
780
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:55,859
Of course, when I met him,
781
00:37:55,860 --> 00:37:57,860
he was still going by his given name.
782
00:37:58,390 --> 00:38:00,620
The "Falken" thing came later.
783
00:38:01,300 --> 00:38:03,760
Wait, you know Falken's real name?
784
00:38:04,930 --> 00:38:06,500
What was it?
785
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,360
Henry Chase.
786
00:38:08,470 --> 00:38:10,040
Hope that helps.
787
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:12,200
Thanks.
788
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:14,960
Whew.
789
00:38:16,240 --> 00:38:18,109
What until we tell Rakesh.
790
00:38:18,110 --> 00:38:20,340
Yeah, his mind is going to explode.
791
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,320
We live our lives thinking
792
00:38:32,340 --> 00:38:35,040
we need to leave something
behind before we die.
793
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:38,860
But a person's legacy can mean
so many different things.
794
00:38:38,930 --> 00:38:41,620
It's the shared experiences
795
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,230
we all go through that
binds us together,
796
00:38:44,300 --> 00:38:47,240
paving the way for new relationships.
797
00:38:47,310 --> 00:38:49,499
Hey.
798
00:38:49,500 --> 00:38:50,820
What are you doing here?
799
00:38:51,410 --> 00:38:53,520
I just wanted to come by and see you.
800
00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:55,140
Huh.
801
00:38:55,210 --> 00:38:58,350
Hey, uh, look,
802
00:38:58,420 --> 00:39:01,850
I like you. I think you like me, too.
803
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:06,300
But if there's something
that you're holding back...
804
00:39:15,130 --> 00:39:17,240
While also reminding us
805
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:19,170
it's never too late to mend the past.
806
00:39:19,240 --> 00:39:21,060
_
807
00:39:23,700 --> 00:39:25,610
And hope for the future.
808
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:28,520
If we're going to play this game,
809
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:31,600
then let's call each other
by our first names.
810
00:39:31,900 --> 00:39:34,540
Nice to meet you, Henry.
811
00:39:54,380 --> 00:39:56,210
Hey there, Annabelle.
812
00:39:56,270 --> 00:39:58,180
Do you see what your father just did?
813
00:39:58,780 --> 00:40:02,020
He lost his queen.
814
00:40:02,900 --> 00:40:04,150
I did not.
815
00:40:04,220 --> 00:40:07,800
Maybe not yet, but in
four moves you will.
816
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:09,740
And if we're lucky enough,
817
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,480
We get to see the lessons of our life
818
00:40:12,540 --> 00:40:15,090
passed down to those we love most.
819
00:40:20,530 --> 00:40:21,800
Is it everything you hoped for?
820
00:40:21,970 --> 00:40:24,470
Better.
821
00:40:24,540 --> 00:40:26,540
That's the thing about legacy.
822
00:40:28,010 --> 00:40:29,900
It's never too late to change it
823
00:40:29,940 --> 00:40:31,240
or make it better.
824
00:40:31,380 --> 00:40:33,010
You just have to know where to start.
825
00:40:43,990 --> 00:40:45,740
- Dad, hey.
- Hey.
826
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:47,280
- Is everything all right?
- Uh, yeah.
827
00:40:47,300 --> 00:40:48,450
No, everything is fine.
828
00:40:48,460 --> 00:40:51,180
I was just hoping we could talk.
829
00:40:53,530 --> 00:40:55,470
I'd like to know a little bit more
830
00:40:55,500 --> 00:40:58,120
about this God Account of yours.
831
00:41:02,670 --> 00:41:04,099
Come on in.
832
00:41:14,150 --> 00:41:19,150
