Season 1, Episode 13
Andres Voychek (Lothaire Bluteau) is the doorman for an elegant upper Eastside building, and he's just saved a tenant from a homeless man who attacked her. The homeless man, Billy Ashford, was beaten and dies shortly thereafter, and Voychek is cuffed and mirandized. The victim, Abigail Phillips (Tristine Skyler), is appalled that her 'hero' has been arrested. It looks like the kind of case where the bad guy is actually the good guy, so Voychek is released on his own recognizance, and defends his actions in front of the Grand Jury. Abigail also testifies, and claims Ashford had been stalking her for the last four months. But Ravell (Scott Cohen) discovers that the stalker calls to Abigail were from a pre-paid cell phone that matches the phone Voychek used to call 911, and they realize he is the stalker instead.
