List of The Killing episodes

"Openings" is the nineteenth episode of the American television drama series The Killing, and the sixth of its second season, which aired on April 29, 2012. The episode is written by Aaron Zelman and is directed by Kevin Bray. In the episode, Sarah Linden (Mireille Enos) investigates the Larsen family; Stan Larsen's (Brent Sexton) past still haunts him; Mitch Larsen (Michelle Forbes) continues to help a runaway girl (Chelsea Ricketts); and Darren Richmond (Billy Campbell) gets a surprise visitor.

In Michael Ames' car, Terry Marek (Jamie Anne Allman) wants to continue the relationship that she has with him, but he (Barclay Hope) orders her to stop calling his house. She accuses him of being afraid of his wife and he grabs her, saying nobody runs his life.

Outside the Larsen garage the next day, Sarah Linden calls Stephen Holder (Joel Kinnaman) to ask him to question all the limo drivers from the ferry dock and to check Rosie's phone records. She adds that she has asked for a warrant for the Wapi Eagle Casino. Stan Larsen appears. She asks how long he has known that Rosie is not his biological daughter. He tells her that Rosie was conceived while he and Mitch were separated for a few months. He thinks that Rosie discovered the truth after looking through Mitch's keepsake box. Linden asks to look around Rosie's room. Holder calls to report that Michael Ames took a limo to the ferry on the night of the murder-and was booked on a flight to Las Vegas that same night with Terry. The detectives find Terry and ask her about Ames. She says they met at a Beau Soleil party, that he was not one of her clients, and that he canceled their Vegas trip at the last minute. Holder takes a phone call, learning that Rosie sent Ames a blackmail text in the weeks before her death, threatening to tell his wife.

At the police station, Holder notes that Ames' land development company supports Mayor Lesley Adams. Linden requests a warrant to search Ames' phone records. The detectives question Jasper Ames (Richard Harmon) at his house, who recalls seeing his father getting dropped off by a cab with a broken taillight at 4 a.m. on the night of her murder. He later confronts his father at a construction site. After telling him the police stopped by the house, Jasper demands to know what he did to Rosie. On the way back into town, Linden learns that Carlson canceled the warrants on both Ames and the casino. At the station, the detectives see Gil Sloane (Brian Markinson) leaving Carlson's office. Michael and Jasper Ames arrive with a lawyer. Jasper claims that he sent the blackmail text from Rosie's phone as a joke. The lawyer confirms that Michael took a ferry to the casino that night, but returned on a later ferry. Carlson (Mark Moses) orders the detectives to leave the Ames family alone, adding that he pulled the casino warrant because of a lack of evidence. The detectives later interrupt a party at the Ames house to question Michael's wife Sally (Allison Hossack) at her house. She tells them that her husband is allowed to sleep with other women in exchange for a prenuptial agreement in her favor. She counters their theory that Michael is Rosie's father, saying she and Michael were living in Indonesia the year Rosie was born. Outside the Ames house, the detectives see the Wapi Eagle chief at whose casino Rosie was last seen. Chief Nicole Jackson (Claudia Ferri) notices Linden's presence as she is arriving for the party. Linden suggests they tap Ames' phone, no matter what Carlson has ordered. Later at the Ames party, Jackson shakes hands with Mayor Adams (Tom Butler).
