(Eli calls Ria into an empty room.)
Yeah, what is it?
It's about the case I'm working on with Foster.
I heard the Feds found out about the daughter.
I called Justice and told them about Carolyn Holland.
What? No, no, no. No, no, no. You're not telling me this. (Eli nods) You lied to Foster? You stopped those people from getting their money back, their retirements?
We cannot let people like Carolyn Holland get away with this.
Are you out of your mind?! Why did you tell me this?
(looking away) I had to tell somebody.
Why me?
I don't trust anybody else.
You shouldn't trust me, either. They didn't catch you?
I took a sedative to relax my face. And I know--
I don't believe this. You gotta tell them. It's the only chance you have of not getting fired.
What? No! They won't find out.
(leans in to stress) Lightmen will.
(They look at each other for a few seconds before Ria walks out and leaves Eli alone in the room.)
