(cell phone buzzes) (buzz) i'm sorry. that's the station. (brad) yeah. go ahead. would you pardon me? bathroom again? (chuckles) so what'd they find out? (cell phone beeps) (esposito) yo. we ran the pet shop owner-- noel du preez. he came up clean. really? what about in the past couple of days? anything unusual? the day before yesterday, customs has him taking possession of a half a dozen african gray parrots, four baboon spiders and two black-tailed pythons, all from south africa. wait a minute. did you-- did you say black-tailed pythons from south africa? yeah. why? because black-tailed pythons, also known as indian rock pythons, are not indigenous to that area. why would they be coming from africa? why do you care about some motherfreaking snakes
2:53 am
i am highly paid to think like a bad guy. here are a few fun facts about snakes. they are cold-blooded, they swallow huge amounts, and they digest their food very slowly. perfect for smuggling. and it wouldn't be the first time. if these snakes are coming in from south africa... there are two things in abundance in south africa-- racial hatred and diamonds. smuggling diamonds in live snakes. mickey's attacker said that there were millions at stake. (castle) and the dumbwaiter goes right down into the pet store. that's why the maitlands' trip had to be this week. they knew the shipment was coming in. and the ketamine-- was to dope the snakes so they could take 'em up the shaft without a fight, and then when we came to the store-- the owner couldn't say a word, otherwise he'd implicate himself in smuggling. so we find out who robbed him-- we find the third man. do they know they're finishing each other's sentences? have uniforms pick up the owner. we'll meet you at the store. hey, is this seat taken? (beckett) what should we tell them? this is gonna be awkward. they'll be okay.
2:54 am
is the owner in custody? wife said he was here working late. place looks closed. okay, castle, hold my purse. follow me. ready? let's go. (esposito) room all clear. (ryan) here, too. (gunshot) whoa! (beckett) nypd! (esposito) drop your weapon! drop your weapon! (ryan) drop the gun! drop your weapon! drop the gun! drop the gun! get down! down! hey. you okay? oh, yeah. yeah, yeah. it takes a lot more than that to scare me.

2:58 am
i didn't know you were the police. i have a right to defend my store. defend from who, mr. du preez? according to customs, you took possession of two black-tailed pythons. which is not a crime. no, but black-tailed pythons are indigenous to india. so why ship them in from south africa? my suppliers are there. there's nothing illegal about my business. then where are the snakes? they weren't in the store, and we didn't find any invoices indicating that they were sold. you know what we did find? a color grader, a u.v. lamp and a carat weight scale. all tools of the diamond trade. so what happened, mr. du preez? because we think someone broke into your store, came down the dumbwaiter shaft and stole your shipment of diamonds. now that's your problem. my problem is that they left two bodies behind. okay, fine. you don't want to implicate yourself. i get it.
2:59 am
come on, mr. du preez. don't you want us to find them? who knew? who did you tell? i told no one. mr. du preez-- i picked up my cargo at the airport personally, and i locked 'em in my office. the next day, they were gone. do you recognize either of these men? no. i've never seen any of them in my life. it's the truth. robbing a smuggler. it's almost a perfect crime. the victim can't go to the police without admitting his own crime. someone knew that shipment was coming in. someone had it planned. where are we on doug's client list? we ran every client doug ever had, and we got nada. just to be thorough, we showed their d.m.v. photos to mickey. none of them were our mysterious third man. well, it had to be someone du preez would never expect. someone connected to his pet store in some capacity, an old employee perhaps? he would have to know when the shipment was coming in.
3:00 am
maybe someone du preez had sent to the airport previously to pick up a shipment. out to the airport. what was that? run all of the paperwork from du preez's last shipment-- customs, fish and wildlife, shipping company, everything. i want to know who knew what and when. you think someone at the airport caught on to du preez's smuggling, decided to rob him instead of report him? not only that. i think i know who. (beckett) mr. and mrs. kopek, thank you for coming in so late. please. oh, sorry it took so long. stan was at work when you called. oh, right. you said that the last time that you saw your brother was at the agency's party around where stan works? that's right. could you refresh my memory, mr. kopek? where is it that you work? it--it's late. could--could you just please tell us what you found out? well, i didn't really put everything together until i remembered your wife's story about the party at the airport. what's this? it's a customs form, mr. kopek,
3:01 am
to a mr. noel du preez, signed by you. yeah. so? i-i work for customs. what's-- what's the big deal? what's going on, stan? i have no idea. sure you do. when you realized what mr. du preez was doing-- smuggling diamonds-- you said to yourself, "why should i give him up to those ungrateful bastards? why not just take care of it myself?" stan-- (castle) then all you needed to do was pull the import permits from fish and wildlife to determine when the next shipment would be. but you needed someone with connections to fencing stolen goods. and so you contacted anton francis-- a con man and an old high school buddy who'd been in and out of jail for years. the easy score was money to his ears, but you needed to get the maitlands out of town for a couple of days first. and that's when your brother-in-law doug came in. what did you do, stan? did you play on his dreams, tell him he could finally afford that scuba shop he always wanted? stan, what did you do? nothing. nothing. i-i don't know--
3:02 am
that's ri-- stan... they're lying. that's-- that's ridiculous. we have a witness, mr. kopek. the squatter you tried to kill identified you from a photo array less than an hour ago. oh, god. no, no, it was--it wasn't supposed to happen like this. n-no one was supposed to get hurt. i mean, doug--he just-- he wouldn't listen. and i-i didn't mean... and--and anton, he came after me. he--that was self-defense. i'm not--i'm not a killer. we have two bodies that prove otherwise. it just got out of hand. things just spun out of control. get him away from me. honey, it's-- (handcuffs rattle) (esposito) on your feet. (handcuffs click) i did it for us. (click) it was all for us, baby. this way. and you guys thought i made the whole thing up. i believed you the whole time. so what--what happens to me now?
3:03 am
or am i headed to the tombs? neither. for your cooperation in the apprehension of stan kopek, the a.d.a. has agreed to a deal. five years probation for all your sins. no jail time? you have a shot at a second chance, mickey. don't blow it. (exhales) i won't. hey, thanks for everything. really, thank you. all right. whew. oh, man. i can't wait to go home and just slip into a warm bath and-- i-- don't. please don't. i was just going to say, i'm starving. we left the restaurant before i had a chance to finish my entree. oh, yeah. well, it wouldn't have mattered if you did. the portions there were tiny. ugh. you know, remy's is open all night. they've got those burgers... oh, and those shakes... oh, why not? mm. so how did your date go?

speeches but it seemed as if most people stayed to that. they did get political, as well. many of them in their acceptance speeches. leo dicaprio did climate change, as well. >> we're going to change abc's brandi hitt who is live in hollywood. brandi, were insiders actually surprised to see "spotlight" win? >> there were a few people predicting it could win best picture. most of the critics thought "the revenant" was going to take home the top prize. however, it really was a three-way race between "the revenant," "the big short" and "spotlight." "spotlight" actually won the screen actors guild award for best ensemble. it wasn't a huge surprise but kind of came from behind at the last minute to take it from "the revenant," reena and kendis. >> let's talk about chris rock for a minute. what's been the reaction we've been hearing about his hosting duties? >> reporter: i've been looking around on twitter. most people say he did a wonderful job. in fact, a lot of people are praising him for going after hollywood and he even called hollywood racist during the
3:34 am
bette midler calling him the biggest winner of the night. oprah winfrey giving him two thumbs up. ellen saying on twitter that was incredible talking about his monologue and john legend saying congrats on your performance, chris rock. he's one of the top talkers for the awards show. you know what the other top talker i'm finding on twitter is michael keaton. i was trying to figure out why is everyone talking about michael keaton. obviously "spotlight" winning best picture. michael keaton's celebration as he walked up to the stage, he kind of dropped two words that i cannot say on television. and it's getting a lot of talk. a lot of smiles this morning. >> i was wondering what that was about. abc's brandi hitt explaining it all from the dolby theater. brandi in hollywood, thank you so much. >> he was pretty pumped. let's check in right now with another member of our team who spent hours on the red carpet earlier on sunday and backstage. abc's leslie messer. good morning. we have to start with what a huge win for leonardo dicaprio.

last night's oscar awards. >> recapping this year's major winners best picture honors went to "spotlight." >> best actress in a leading role went to brie larson for "room." best actress in a supporting role went to alicia vikander for "the danish girl." >> and for the guys best actor in a leading role went to leonardo dicaprio, for the revenant" and in a bit of an upset best actor in a supporting role went to mark rylance for "bridge of spies." the most anticipated moment of the night was the start of the awards. >> the start of the award was the moment that host chris rock took the sage about the world waiting to see what he would say about the controversial lack of diversity among the nominees. >> as expected rock had plenty to say. >> this is the wildest, craziest oscars to ever host because you got all this controversy, no black nominees. you know? and people are like, chris, you should boycott. chris you should quit.
3:47 am
you know, how come it's only unemployed people that tell you to quit something? i'm sure there were no black nominees some of those years, say '62 or '63 and black people did not protest. why? because we had real things to protest at the time like too busy being raped and lynched to care about who won best cinematographer. jada's going to boycott the oscars. jada boycotting 0 the oscars is like me boycotting rihanna's panties. i wasn't invited. if you want black people every year at the oscars just have black categories like best black friend. hollywood is sorority racist. it's like, we like you, rhonda. but you're not a kappa. because "rocky" takes place in a word where white athletes are as good as black athletes.

3:49 am
bit of awkward silence and then a bit of polite applause. but really the best reaction may have come from the weekend who really, really didn't want to laugh. but he just couldn't resist. so he did laugh. >> he didn't know what to do. neither did any of us at home. afterwards dash did take to her blog responding to her critics who charge that she's not black enough saying i'd rather be a free thinking black than a cookie cutter black who thinks and votes just like all my friends. who knew there was such a thing as cookie cutter blacks. >> now earlier, an even more awkward moment played out on the red carpet and the internet. a beauty company tweeted they had no idea oprah was tattooed. they couldn't believe, it was kind of awkward. as you can see, that's not really oprah. the woman with the tattoos is whoopi goldberg. >> it's different? and considering there weren't a lot of people of color there total beauty knows they screwed up. they tweeted an apology to

they said when it comes to black tie events there are only two options a bow tie or no tie at all. if you can pull it off, hey, michael, you can pull it off. >> michael looked absolutely amazing. now that the guys are out of the way, it is time for the real fashion to begin. >> jackson's red carpet round coming up next. he's got his take on fashion. >> he actually got all dressed up for it. it's really impressive. i might be wearing that for my halloween party. >> will you? >> yeah. halloween party. >> will you? >> yeah. but these liquid gels are new. mucinex fast max. it's the same difference. these are multi-symptom. well so are these. this one is max strength and fights mucus. that one doesn't. uh...think fast! you dropped something. oh...i'll put it back on the shelf... new from mucinex fast max. the only branded cold and flu liquid gel that is max-strength and fights mucus. start the relief. ditch the misery. let's end this.
