[gentle acoustic guitar]

[Lou] Ooh, this one looks good.

Large guest house, nice yard,
cute kitchen.

Nope. Can't live in
a guest house.

And yet you can live
in my house house.

Well, you're my sister.

I can stomach being forced
to interact with you.

Aw, you're gonna
make me cry.

I know you're looking at
Marci's Instagram.

You should just call her.

I heard she got back
a few months ago,

opened a little clinic,

and she's been working
with kids in schools.

[Henry] She always did
have a way with children.

[Marci] Do you guys
like to explore?

[kids] Yeah.

[Marci] Cool. Me too.
And exploring is great.

Until one day, you're chasing
a butterfly in the Congo basin

and you fall into a river
full of flesh eating tigerfish.

[kids gasping]

I'm sure you're nervous after
the way things ended, but--

I don't need your help with
Marci or anything, really.

Okay. You don't need
my help anymore?

I've never really needed it.

I taught you how to
tie your shoes.

I was about to
figure it out.

I taught you how
to drive stick.

I taught myself
when I was 14.

I was pretending to let you
teach me so Dad wouldn't know.

Okay, uh, what about
the book of logic puzzles

that you got for your
ninth birthday?

You begged me for help
with some of those.

Those don't count. There was
nothing logical about them.

Why would a fox transport
chickens across a river?

And how does he know
how to operate a canoe?

Okay, I don't know.
Oh, my God.

The point is that you
are my little brother,

and sometimes
I know better because--

I can take care of myself.
I'm a self sustaining ecosystem.

Dig in, boys.

To expanding our minds.

To my two best bros.

[AJ] To getting filthy rich.

[all chuckling]

[woman] As your certified
trip shaman,

I'll be here to guide you
and support you as you--

[gagging] Sorry.

Ooh, mine tastes like dirt.

Mine, too. I heard Elon puked
the first time he did them.

Y'all are crazy.

Mine tastes sweet.

[chuckling]

[shaman]
Your journey is beginning.

You're all in a safe space.

That is why we're taking
crypto to the next level.

Because you're
so next level, dog.

We're totally tripping.

Are you feeling it, Kev?

I'm feeling...

...something.

Kevin's tripping balls, man.

[distorted music]

[AJ] What's going on?

Okay, talk to me.
Do you need water?

I don't like this.

- Okay, something's wrong.
- [AJ] Kev?

- I don't like this.
- [AJ] What's happening?

[shaman] Call 911. Call 911!

[all screaming]

[theme music]

[Lily chuckling] Oh, yeah.

Okay, attention everybody.

Remember,
tonight is the big night.

I expect you all to be there,
and don't be stingy.

Hey, what's he talking about?

The fundraiser he does every
year for Children's Hospital.

Did you not get like a
thousand email reminders?

[whispering] Those emails
go to my spam folder.

I should probably change that.

Hey, you know,
it'd be really great

if you two could
donate big tonight.

I got Channel 6
coming in to cover me

handing over that
giant fake check tomorrow.

[Lou] Seriously?
You're going on TV this year?

- [Hank] Yeah.
- Why?

- To raise awareness.
- Of yourself?

Of terminally ill children,
wise guy.

And don't try to get out of it.
I know all the open cases.

There's nothing that
can't wait till the morning.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I have a giant fundraising
thermometer to build.

- Lily!
- Hmm...

- [Hank] In my office.
- You got it, Chief.

Do we really have to go to this?
Really?

It's important to him,
so unfortunately, yes.

Get ready for three--

[Todd]
Hey, can somebody help me?

I just watched my friend die
and I am losing my mind.

[Henry] Sir, calm down
and tell us everything.

And take your time.

2010, Haunted Hayride -

first time you asked Marci out.
Who made you do it?

You did, and she laughed
at me and said 'no',

like I said she would.

Well, five years later,
she said 'yes',

so I kind of set the stage,

flipped the fuse,
pushed over the first--

- [Henry] Hey, no, no, no!
- What the hell?

[Lou] Is that the County Sheriff
Coroner's van?

No, no, no.
This is our crime scene.

You tell that Coroner's
van to turn around.

[Sheriff] And do what?

I mean, do you want him
to put the body back?

Yes.

Any suspicious death in these
city limits is EVPD's body.

[Shane] No, we're not
treating that suspicious.

He had heart meds
in his backpack.

Looks like an
accidental OD to me.

- Okay, new jacket!
- [Lou exclaiming]

Is that velvet?

Huh, yeah.
You like this?

Yeah, yeah,
it's seriously nice.

[Lou] Thanks.

Well, coming from the king
of nice jackets himself,

that means a lot.

Wait till it gets colder.
I bought a duster.

Makes me look like
Val Kilmer in Tombstone.

[Henry] I'm also here.

We'd like to
investigate for ourselves.

Yeah, knock yourselves out.

Their 'trip shaman' is inside,

and, uh, we've been here
an hour, by the way.

It's nice for you two
to show up eventually.

Alright, for your
information, Carson,

we were interviewing
crypto bro number two.

Yeah, also, we're
helping our dad make

a giant cardboard check.

Come on, man,
don't tell him that.

Well, a trucker found
crypto bro number three

running down the
middle of the Interstate.

Their assistant Esther

picked him up and
took him to the hotel,

so they're at the Pinewood.

I'm gonna question this
so called shaman.

You're gonna--
No, no, wait.

Sorry.
Bull in a China shop.

Hey, stop. You don't question
anybody solo yet.

I'm Senior Detective,
so I'm basically your boss.

Dad is my boss.

Oh, God, that's the first time
I've ever said that out loud.

Well, I'm in charge of the crime
scene. If this is a crime scene.

It's not an OD.

That's not how the body responds

to copious amounts
of psychedelics.

You've seen a
case like this?

Nope. I spent a week
in the desert

doing peyote once.

I was trying to prove or
disprove the existence of God.

And?

- The results were inconclusive.
- Oh.

[Lou] It must have been terrible
to watch that happen.

I should have refused
their money.

Their energy was so wrong.

They were rude and arrogant.

They were drunk,
making videos.

Videos?

Uh, who was filming?

The taller one.
He had glasses.

How were they rude?

Oh, for starters, they were very
dismissive of my crystals.

Doubted the magical
properties of rocks.

How does it work?

Do you provide them
with the mushrooms?

Oh, no. I'm not allowed to
procure or handle them.

I'm just a veteran psychonaut

who acts as a safe guide
for fellow travellers.

Oh, my God. How could
this have happened?

I'm sorry. I should have
offered you one of these.

Thank you.

Do you still have
the baggies here?

They're right over there.

Do you happen to remember

if they each brought
their own baggie,

or did one person
hand them all out?

The baggies were all in one
backpack when they got here,

but I didn't notice
who divvied them up.

[Shaman] That Detective said
he thought it was

an accidental overdose.

You know, the handsome one?

Um, Detective Carson?
Yeah.

- Um, is he handsome?
- He's handsome.

I don't know. We have a
professional relationship,

so I don't really
think of him that way.

He may be extremely handsome,
but he's dead wrong.

White gills,
sickly sweet smell.

This baggie contains remnants
of Death Cap mushrooms,

the deadliest fungus
known to man.

Crypto bro number one,
was murdered.

[dramatic music]

We should probably
learn their names.

[jaunty country guitar]

I saw you try and get her prints
on that tissue pack.

Trust me, I got 'em.

I've done that trick
about a million times.

But they'll be latents,
so you're not pulling anything

without a cyanoacrylate
fuming chamber,

and they cost 20 grand, so I'm
guessing we don't have one.

Not yet, but we're about to.

[Lou] The hot plate heats
the super glue

inside the muffin cup,
releasing the cyanoacrylate...

[Henry] And the fan
provides a circulation.

[Lou] Voila.

Instant fuming chamber made
out of Bradley's leftovers

and some stuff we got
from Lily's desk.

Ten minutes, and we'll know
if Skye was telling the truth.

Mm, that's actually smart.

Don't say "actually".
I took AP chem.

And trust me, with our budget,
DIY hacks are your friend.

[Lou] Oh, shoot. We're gonna
be late for Dad's thing.

Can you promise to at least try
and get along with him tonight?

I promise nothing.

Are you happy with this, Chief?
'Cause I like it.

Ah, I wish I looked skinnier
and the kid looked sicker.

It'll have to do, though.

Cardboard Hank looks perfect.

- Real one is shiny in face.
- Really?

Lily, I need more powder.

Ugh, okay, but too much more,

and you're gonna look
like Marie Antoinette.

[Sarika] I got a 20

on the giant table-sized
pizza approaching, Chief.

[Hank] Roger that Sarika,

I like myself a giant
table-sized pizza.

Hey, Chief, you, um,
you forgot to give me a job.

Um, alright, your job
is to help that idiot

get that pizza
through that door.

If any of the toppings slide
off, I'm not paying them.

Alright, I'm on it.

He will fail mission.

Hey, what took
you two so long?

Oh, nothing.
Just a murder investigation.

Murder? You mean the
mushroom overdose?

It wasn't an overdose.

Someone gave him
Death Cap mushrooms.

No, no, no, no!
Don't fold it.

Nadia, could you help them, please?

Well at least tell me
you have a suspect.

We've led the County
in crime clearance

for the last nine years running,

but Appleton is
nipping at our heels.

Why couldn't he have
died over there?

Right! That's the
real tragedy here.

Do you have to have
a critical comment

every time I say something?

Do you always have
to say something

so worthy of criticism?

Can you guys get
along for 5 seconds?

- I'm not doing it.
- He starting it.

Seriously, stop!

Now look, the killer
had to be in the room

for the right person
to get the wrong bag.

That leaves his two buddies
and the trip shaman,

but her prints
weren't on the bags.

Made my own cyanoacrylate
fuming chamber.

[Henry] We're interviewing
the guys in a couple of hours

when they're sober.

A couple of hours?
You're gonna miss everything.

[Lou] Dad.

Alright, well,
how about a motive?

Well, the three of them

were about to take their
crypto company public,

- so lots of money at stake.
- Hmm.

Turns out one of their
investors is local--

Rick Vernon.

Well, Rick and I have
been friends for 40 years.

You've been friends with
everyone in this town

for 40 years.

Because I'm a friendly person.

[Lou] Okay, they came here to
discuss some last minute details

of the IPO with him.

Rick was also the one

who got them in contact
with their shaman.

We'd like to question him.

No, you better let me
handle that.

Both Rick and his ex-wife
are on the City Council.

Gotta tread lightly there.

I'll question him,
and he won't even realise it.

We do this little thing
called 'unquestioning'.

[Henry] Right. Well,
that's already a word.

It means
'accepting things blindly'.

Thank you, Professor.
I left my dictionary on my desk.

[Lou] Uh, what is a guy your age

investing in crypto
for anyway?

Well, after the divorce,

he started wearing skinny jeans
and fancy sneakers.

He got a neck-lift. It's a
full blown midlife crisis.

Well, if he's your age,

his life is way more
than halfway over.

Also, are you wearing makeup?

Yeah, a little powder
and some base.

Because apparently, my life
is more than halfway over.

They don't know it's
a murder investigation,

so just follow my lead.

God, when can I question
people on my own?

When you can
prove you can do it

without being insulting,
annoying, or generally weird.

Studies show that
a fear of offending

leads to critical errors
in high stakes jobs

like Scandinavian crime fighters
and Japanese aviators.

Yeah, weird stuff like that.
That has to stop.

Hello. I'm Esther.
Come on in.

I'll let the guys know
that you're here.

Doesn't she remind you
a little of Marci?

I don't see it at all.

Liar.

This morning, it really hit me,
you know...

Kev was my ride or die,
and he died.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

And Kevin was your CEO?

Officially, we were
all equal partners.

The three amigos.

Shaking up the world of crypto.

So yours isn't
a bogus currency

whose value can be artificially
manipulated with ease, or--

[AJ] I'm sorry, what does
any of this have to do

with Kevin's accident?

Uh, standard procedure
in an accident like this.

In case of a
wrongful death claim

against the shaman
for providing the drugs.

Uh, the shaman didn't
provide the mushrooms.

I bought them in Seattle.
Am I in trouble?

Oh, no, it's not, uh--
Or we're not, uh--

No. No.

Psilocybin has been
decriminalised in Seattle.

You're-- You're not
in any trouble at all.

[Lou] Now, did each of you
bring your own baggie,

or did one of you bring all
three baggies together?

We had been drinking beforehand,

so honestly,
it's hard to remember.

[Lou] Of course.

And the shaman said you may
have videos on your phone.

Do you think I could take a look
just to confirm the timeline?

I also managed to lose my
phone in the craziness.

We've already
contacted Kevin's family.

Nobody wants to file
a complaint.

And if you don't have
any more questions,

we'd like to get back to
mourning our friend.

Actually,
I have several more.

Of course.

We're just legally required

to grab a quick urine sample
from both of you first.

The mushrooms may have been
tainted with a toxic substance.

We need to know if
there's a public health risk.

Again, just standard procedure,
as per the CDC.

This is ridiculous. We
didn't do anything wrong.

It's cool, bro.

We don't want anyone
else to get sick.

So let me guess, that was to get
their fingerprints too, right?

Yeah, but I also wanted
to see how they'd react.

On Earth, we call it

understanding
human behaviour.

Something you definitely
need my help with.

[Henry] And right now,

are you helping me learn
how to do a nine point turn?

[Lou] Shut up.
They built it wrong.

[Henry] Equally suspicious

that the other one
lost his phone.

Yeah, and what
about the assistant?

She bought the mushrooms.

No, can't place
Esther at the scene.

Ooh, Esther! Whoa...

Well, I don't think you want
to consider Esther a suspect

because you have
a little crush.

That is an
outrageous accusation.

Come on. She obviously
reminds you of Marci, and--

- [car honking]
- It's a tight turn!

[crowd chattering]

They make a cut right here,

and then they zig, zag, zig,
right down to the Adam's apple.

And that's why
they call it a 'Z-plasty'.

Oh, my God, Rick,

it's like you've got the neck
of a 30 year old again.

It's amazing.
Oh, speaking of which,

how about that poor
kid that OD'd, huh?

I heard you invested
in his company.

- Oh, so awful, you know?
- [Hank] Yeah.

The worst part is
I'm the reason they're here.

Well, don't beat
yourself up about it.

I mean, they would have
found a place to party

with or without you.

Celebrating the big IPO,
I understand.

It was supposed to be in May,

but one of their competitors
is going public soon.

I couldn't talk them
out of moving it up.

Generation never listens.

I blame phones and
weak moral character.

Amen. Hey, I gotta run.
Good luck tonight.

Yeah, thanks, buddy.

And thanks for that
generous donation.

Ha, ha, ha...

When you do this
'unquestioning'.

Yeah?

I see Detective Olivia Benson
inside body of handsome man.

- Please, just stop. Stop it.
- Just call her.

If you don't stop it, I'll tell
Dad you broke his recliner

having sex with Bobby
Dugan in high school.

Don't threaten me.
You wore a cape in Junior High,

and I have pictures.

It was a cloak.
I would never wear a cape.

Hey, hey, you made it in time.

About to have my big moment.

I want us all up
on stage together.

Did you talk to
Richard Vernon?

Of course, but no shop talk now.
Gotta get my game face on.

Chief! Chief, the Chinooks
Club reserved the bar after us

and says that we're cutting
into their chapter meeting.

So we've got angry
Chinooks at the door.

Okay, okay. Earl!
Hey, ten minutes, okay?

Just 10 more minutes.
15 at tops. 20.

If all the cops are here,

who's guarding the
donut shop, Hickman?

[chuckling] Oh, go coil
a hose, Flanagan.

We're about to leave

the fireman's fundraiser
in the dust.

We would have sold
a lot more calendars

if you hadn't trashed
the idea in the paper.

All I said was that raising
money for Children's Hospital

by selling shirtless
fireman calendars

sexualised paediatric cancer.

[people applauding]

[Bud] All right, everybody,
I'm Bud Grady,

coach of the Eden Vale
football team.

Go, Eagles!

Big Hank Hickman and I
have been friends since,

well, going on forever.

And so it's my pleasure

to bring the man of the hour
up here on stage right now.

Come on, let's give him a hand.
Come on, make him feel welcome.

Thanks, brother. That was good.
I appreciate it.

Okay, hey...

How about the year the Eagles
are having this year, huh?

[crowd cheering]

Coach is doing a great job.

Gonna beat Birch Creek
this year, huh?

Go, Eagles.

Alright, well, thank you
all for coming anyway.

I really appreciate it.
Great turnout tonight.

And I'm afraid
I'm gonna ask you

to dig deep one more time now,

because those kids,
these kids are counting on me

like they always do.

Sorry.

- Here we go.
- Like clockwork.

Won't you help me make
their futures a little brighter?

[clicking]

[Hank] Oh, come on.
You gotta be kidding me.

Who killed the lights
back there?

Hello? Did we blow a fuse?
What's going on now?

[glass shattering]
[people exclaiming]

[Hank] What the hell was that?

For God's sake, somebody
turn on the lights here.

Oh, okay, great. Sorry, folks.
I'm sure it was just a--

Chief! The fishbowl!

[people exclaiming]

Oh, no.

Now I'm glad we came.

Now, to sum up,
first we have Flanagan,

who blames me for sabotaging
his calendar fundraiser.

Pretty good
calendar this year.

I prefer your more
full-figured gentlemen.

Dennis gives me warmth
in the winter time

and shade from the sun,
if you copy.

I copy.

Eyes up here, ladies.

[Hank] The Chinooks -
they are a secret society

with mysterious rites
and rituals,

so I don't put anything
past them.

Finally, pizza delivery guy,

who I stiffed for ruining my
giant table-sized pizza.

Now, since Henry and Lou
are too busy--

Solving murder.

No back talk, please.

I need one of you to step up
and lead this investigation.

I will be up your butt with a
flashlight and a microscope,

and failure is not an option.
Anyone?

Just a second, Bradley.
Anyone...

...else?

Look, son, accusing a Chinook
of a crime is serious.

You could at least
get our titles right.

I'm sorry,
Mister Exalted Ruler.

[Sam] And who did you say
was closest to the fuse box

when the lights went out?

Was it the Loyal Knight?

He's the Leading Knight.
Jack's the Loyal Knight.

I'm so sorry.

And as I said,
Frank was the closest.

He's our Treasurer.

His title is just 'Treasurer'?

You have a problem
with our titles?

No. No problems here.
A wonderful shirt.

Is that pink?

- It's salmon.
- Right.

Salmon.

[man] I told you.

My manager said I had
to wait for the $42.50.

[Sarika] And when
it never came,

you stole it from a bunch
of sick kids, didn't you?

- [banging]
- Didn't you?

No.

[Flanagan] I didn't take your
stinking money, Hickman.

And good luck
finding out who did.

You couldn't crack a case
of twist-top Rainiers.

Yeah, go play on
your pole, Flanagan.

Hey, the pizza guy
was a dead end, Chief,

but I'm not giving up
on this case yet.

Did you say 'yet'?
What do you mean 'yet'?

You're in charge of this
investigation, kid.

Well, I meant 'at all'.
I'm not giving up 'at all'.

I don't know why I said that.

Right.

[Henry] The nose is all wrong.

[Lou] Well, you were bound
to wind up behind bars

sooner or later.

It's the only quiet
place to work.

Remember when Dad used
to let us play in here?

Remember when you
locked me in here

and went to see Titanic?

Our babysitter canceled,
I had no choice.

So, Dad just told me

that Vernon wanted the bros
to postpone the IPO,

but they ignored him.
Could be something.

So could this.

Judging by their social media,

Kevin was engaged to
Todd's ex-girlfriend.

Hmm, could speak to motive.

Good job.

So, I was thinking,
and you're right,

I should let you interview
a witness solo for once.

Finally.

Who am I interviewing?

The assistant, she just called.

Oh, Esther?
Why did she--

I mean, how did she, uh--

What's she want?

She has some
information to share

that she doesn't want
to say over the phone

or in front of her bosses.

Is she coming here?

No, too crowded.

You're meeting her
at The Pioneer.

Are you having me question her
to make a point about Marci?

That is offensive.

No, no, because
even if I had

unresolved feelings
about her, which I don't,

I am more than capable
of talking to a witness

who reminds me of her,
even though she doesn't.

Sure, sure. It's a date.

Nope. No, it's not.
Don't call it that.

Hey, it's definitely not a date.

[country song playing]

I feel weird about
talking to you.

Oh, well, you shouldn't.

There's nothing weird
about this at all.

Certainly not to me.

Hello, Henry.
Oh, my goodness.

I thought you were Marci Lane.

Henry, doesn't she look
just like Marci?

Ah, I don't know
what you mean.

Your old girlfriend,
the glasses, that face,

it's almost spooky.

Oh, they used to come in here
all the time back in the day.

Thank you, Gladys.

I'm just interviewing
a witness right now, so...

God... uncanny.

[Henry] She's very old.
Confused.

So tell me what you
came here to say.

I think that AJ was
up to something

behind Kevin and Todd's backs.

He's been acting really strange
the past few days,

and then he had a call with this
local investor this morning

when we arrived
that I know for a fact

he kept from the other two.

Was the investor's name
Richard Vernon?

Facelift?
Age-inappropriate clothing?

Fighting a losing battle
against the onslaught of time?

[chuckling] That's him.

You're funny. Does everyone
tell you you're funny?

Well, like on purpose?

Well, not-- Not everyone.

What was the nature
of the call?

It sounded like they were going
to meet about the IPO tonight,

but I don't know if that's
still happening after, you know.

Was there ever any friction
between Kevin and Todd

in regards to Kevin's fiancé?

Ex-fiancé.
He broke it off with her

two weeks ago after Janet
gave him chlamydia,

which he somehow
didn't already have.

I take it you and he
weren't close.

If you're asking me if I liked
Kevin, the answer is no.

But the other two
are way worse.

I promise, if I wanted
to kill one of them,

he'd be my third choice.

[Gladys] Can I show you
this picture of his ex?

[Henry] Just the check.
Thank you, Gladys.

[Gladys] Okay,
don't get snippy.

So old.

[urgent music]

Wait a second.

What if the evidence,
was in a circle?

Well, shoot, that didn't make
a lick of difference.

What, no brownie?
I texted you.

I was working.

Working on a hot date?

How'd it go?
Are you in love?

Are you gonna slowly mould
Esther into Marci

like Jimmy Stewart in Vertigo?

You know, if you're
so in love with Marci,

why don't you call her?

Oh that's a good one -
"You call her".

Did you ask about
Kevin's fiancé?

Ex-fiancé.

They broke up two weeks ago
because she gave him chlamydia.

Interesting.

We just got the test results
back, and Todd has it too.

That's why he didn't
want to give a sample.

Also, Esther said that AJ
is up to something

with Vernon behind the
other two's backs,

and she said they're probably
gonna see each other tonight.

Looks like you and I are
going on a stakeout.

- Come on.
- Okay.

Been out here three hours.
Maybe Esther was wrong.

Could have someone relieve us
if Dad hadn't commandeered

the entire force for a
misdemeanour theft.

They're gonna figure out
who took the money.

You watch.

I know they're green,

but they all have something
to bring to the table.

Like what?

Take Szczepkowski.

Total computer whiz,
which we desperately need.

I recruited him to become a cop

when he was setting up
my home network.

He jumps when
the microwave dings.

Yeah, he's green,
but he'll get there.

And I know Ray's
a little too gung ho.

She told me she walked down the
aisle to the Marine Corps Hymn.

It was a beautiful ceremony.

Ray knows how to
think like a criminal

because she's very intuitive.

And also, both her parents
have done hard time.

And Bradley?

What does Bradley
bring to the table?

Bradley?

Not gonna lie.

Still waiting to find out,
but I know it's there.

He just needs a win, and solving
this case will give him one.

- You stole the money.
- I did, yeah.

Teach them a lesson?

To teach Dad a lesson about not
making charity all about him.

But I thought it could be

a teachable moment
for the team, too.

They'll never figure it out.

You want to bet?

Loser has to do whatever
the winner says.

I'll take that action.

What'd you do
with the money?

Donated it anonymously. It's
the only true form of charity.

Listened to a
podcast about it.

Do you ever read
actual books?

[scoffs] Books are overrated.

That's a concerning statement.

You must have had an accomplice.
Someone to turn out the lights.

Lily.

The whole thing appealed
to her dark, twisted soul.

Mine, too.

I completely approve
of this operation.

I happen to be very good at
helping people learn things

they are resistant to learning.

Not this again. I don't want
to talk about Marci with you.

I know you don't feel good about
the way things ended with her.

- She broke up with me.
- Of course she did.

Three years together, and
she gets a call from Seattle

that you left town without
talking to her first?

I had that fight with Dad.
It was late.

I was upset. I got in my car.
I started driving.

I spent months trying to
convince her to come join me.

She made her choice.

She had a life.
She was in med school.

Yeah, Central Valley. She was
far too smart for that place.

I'm surprised that degree
is valid across State lines.

Stop! You feel guilty
about your side of it.

I know you do. I see it.
And if you don't deal with it--

Why do you refuse to stop
hounding me about this thing?

Because I want you to let me
be your big sister again.

I want you to ask my advice
and value my opinion.

And, I don't know, let me
take care of you sometime.

It's supposed to be my job.
It used to be my job...

...and I missed it.

I thought part of why
you came back

was because you missed it, too.

[sighing]

[vehicle approaching]

Hang on.
Is this our guy?

[gate buzzing]

[low tense music]

[Henry] You know, this is
technically trespassing.

Nah, we're just dropping in
on an old family friend.

Infrared security camera.

Way ahead of you.

Aluminium blocks
infrared rays.

Got that from a podcast,
so there.

Hello, Bradley.
How is investigation?

Great, now he's got you
checking on me.

You know, I have seen every
episode of every CSI, yes?

Even not so good one with
James Van Der Beek.

Yeah, so?

So maybe I help
you solve case.

[chuckling]

Look, no offence, but, you
know, if the Chief heard

I asked his girlfriend for help,
he'd lose all respect for me.

Seems like small thing to risk,
but okay.

[whispering] Wait, wait.

The news about Kevin
isn't online yet,

but I'm sure it's about to be.

What about Todd?
Does he suspect anything?

I don't think so.

AJ, look me in the eye.
Do we have a Todd problem?

No, we're good.

One more day,
this will all be over.

You just go back to the hotel.

Oh, wait, one thing. You didn't
say anything about my new kicks.

What?

These shoes.
They're limited edition.

Great colourway, huh?

[AJ] Sure, Rick.
They're super cool.

My ex-wife thinks I'm
too old to wear these,

but Jeff Goldblum has a pair,
and he's in his seventies.

[Sheriff] Hold it right there!

Detectives?

[Rick] What the hell's
going on here?

[Sheriff] Someone blocked
the infrared camera,

and it triggered
the silent alarm.

[Henry] But I don't understand.

You got that trick
from a podcast.

Do you two have any idea
how lucky you are

that Rick Vernon is not pressing
charges for trespassing?

AJ was up to something
with Vernon.

Plus, he lied about
losing his phone,

which may have evidence
of who killed Kevin.

Vernon should be considered
an active suspect.

Oh, really? Okay.

Well, I just got off
the phone with him.

His investment was legally
locked in pre-IPO,

which means if the
company craters,

he never sees a
dime of his money.

And what they were up to

was plotting to force the two
dumber ones out after the IPO,

which, it turns out,
is absolutely legal.

If we could just get a
subpoena of that phone.

No! You only know
about that phone

because of your
illegal surveillance.

They're getting
on a plane soon.

They're gonna hide
behind their lawyers.

We'll be lucky to speak
to them ever again,

let alone get a look
at those videos.

We just hope that big red
unsolved homicide

doesn't put our clearance
rate behind Appleton's.

Oh, that's not happening.

You two are getting your
butts over to that hotel,

and you are gonna get them to
voluntarily show you that phone.

Somehow, some way,
you are gonna solve this

before they get on that plane.

That's an order!

- On our way.
- You got it.

And any chance you can check
in on Bradley? He's so--

[both] No.

[Sam clapping]

Bradley? Have you
been here all night?

Uh, no, no, um...

Hey, tell me you
got something.

[Sarika] I think we might.
Tell him, Sam.

Well, I was able to stitch
together a timeline

based on social media posts

before and after
the lights went out,

and I determined the exact
length of the blackout

was 14 seconds.

So we went back to the barn,
I did a trial run.

From the fuse box to
the fishbowl and back

took 12.4 seconds,

and that's on an empty stage
with the lights on.

You see what we're getting at?

We're looking for a blind guy.

What? No, no.
It had to be a team.

One working the lights and
one grabbing the money.

Wait, now we have
to catch two people?

Man. Ugh.
I am so lost.

I don't even know
where I messed up,

but I guarantee you, it was the
dumbest mistake in the book.

It's just too bad there isn't
an actual book,

because then you can
just do the opposite

of whatever it says the
dumbest mistake is.

Wait, Szczepkowski.
You are a damn genius.

What?

What did he mean?

I don't know, but it feels
good to be praised.

Now, we're running out of time,
so remember, don't--

I know, I know.
Follow your lead. Be nice.

Make the bad guys
friendship bracelets.

Yeah, no,
I was actually gonna say,

we don't have time
to play it my way,

so don't be afraid
to cut to the chase.

Oh, good.

Hey, Esther.

Hey.

If you're looking for the guys,
they're inside.

We're leaving, if I can ever
fit all of this into the trunk.

Well, you can easily fit
those smaller bags

underneath the front seat.

Marci would have
known that.

We don't have time to answer
any more questions

about the accident.

We're going back to Seattle.

We need to see the videos
on the phone, now.

Bro...

He told you he
lost his phone.

[phone ringing]

Oh, didn't I tell you?
I found it in the car.

No, dog, you didn't mention it.

I must have dropped it
when Esther picked me up.

- [AJ] I was so fried.
- Hand it over.

[AJ] Look, Detectives,

I'm not sure how much you
follow the financial papers

here in Smallville, but there
are many confidential

and sensitive documents on
this phone related to our IPO,

so unless you have a subpoena,
I'll pass.

Yeah. Yeah.
No, you're right.

I'm not really a
newspaper gal.

I do enjoy the occasional
financial podcast,

and it strikes me the reports
you dragged your heels

in your partner's
murder investigation

could set off some alarm bells
with SEC and FINRA.

You think he was murdered?

[Henry] It's the kind of story
you can imagine

on the front page of every
financial paper in the country,

which I do read.

And then I'd guess--

And again, I'm just a simple
small town Detective...

You'll have to withdraw the
IPO, face evaluation penalty,

and push back to Q2
of next year, if not Q3.

And by then, the rest of the
crypto house of cards

may have fallen,

and your pretend money won't
be worth any money at all.

Bro, give him the phone.

Fine.

[phone beeping]

[AJ on phone] Let's go, dog.
Hand them out.

Hey, don't be grabby.

I'm the official distributor,
and this one's mine.

[Kevin on phone]
Whoa, whoa, hold up.

Don't go giving yourself
the biggest quantity bag.

CEO gets first pick.

[low tense music]

Oh! Come on, get up.

I don't believe it.

He gave himself
the poison ones.

What are you saying?
Kevin killed himself? Why?

Maybe because he found out
one of his best friends

was plotting with Richard Vernon

to force both the partners out
after the IPO.

That's why you didn't want
us to see your phone.

Bro.

Dude.

[Lou] Maybe because he found
out his other best friend

gave his fiancé chlamydia.

- You gave Janet chlamydia, too?
- What do you mean, too?

Yeah, I already gave it
to AJ's girlfriend.

Technically,
one of my girlfriends,

but yeah, not chill.

You're both terrible people.

Well, that was unsatisfying.

Completely. But there's
no other explanation.

He chose the bag.

No one else could have
controlled the outcome.

Wait a minute.

Remember those logic puzzles
we were talking about

and how you used to come
crying to me for help?

That's because
they made no sense.

Not because I wasn't
smart enough.

If anything, I was too smart.

Listen, there was this one
you couldn't figure out,

and you got all mad about it.

It was called
The King's Assassin.

The King tells the assassin

to kill the man
who wants his throne.

[Henry] It was ludicrous.
A complete cheat.

He stabs the wrong man,
but the King rewards him anyway

because the assassin says,

"Well, technically, every man in
the Kingdom wants the throne."

It doesn't matter
who you kill...

If every option
is your enemy.

- [car starting]
- [Henry] Esther.

Esther.

Told you it was a tight turn.

So she put the
poisoned mushrooms

in one of the bags

and then didn't
care who got it?

She hated all three of them,

and she knew that if
any one of them died,

it would derail the IPO.

[Lou] Esther invested in their
biggest competitor's IPO

next month, which stood
to make her a huge windfall

with her bosses out of the way.

Look at the two of you,
solving another murder,

just like I always...

[Lou] Oh, Dad, come on.
If you cry, I'll cry.

I would strongly prefer
if nobody cried.

Hey everybody,
come to the briefing room.

- Bradley solved the robbery.
- Can't he just come in here?

Oh, come on. He wants to
have his Knives Out moment.

- It's cute.
- Alright.

[Joe] Ladies and gentlemen,
what I'm about to say

may come as a shock to you,

but I have determined
beyond a shadow of a doubt

that the two perpetrators
are both in this room.

Impossible.

[Joe] Well, that's what
I thought, Chief,

but I made the most common
mistake a Detective can make.

[Nadia] And...

Nadia, I need you to tell me
the number one screw up

a Detective always
makes on TV.

No! Again.

Simple.

Good Detective knows sometimes
is last person he expects.

Alright, now once I opened it up
to being someone in this room,

I returned to the
scene of the crime

to examine the light switch,

and I found a distinct residue
of strawberry lip balm.

And that could have
been anyone.

[Joe] But no, no,
Lily was not the mastermind.

Next, I had Szczepkowski
check the mail server,

and he found a series of emails
between a workstation

and the Children's Hospital
donation portal,

and I immediately
knew what happened.

Yeah, I mean, that's gotta
mean something.

An anonymous donation?
How do you get credit for that?

Well, I think that was
exactly the point, Chief.

The mastermind behind
the fishbowl robbery,

which wasn't actually a robbery,

is Detective Lou Hickman.

[all gasping]

Oh, I don't know
why I gasped.

I was with him
when he figured it out.

[applauding]

Thank you.

Okay, you got me.
You got me, Lou.

Only true form of charity
is anonymous donation.

Heard that in a
podcast somewhere.

Okay, everybody
back to work.

Nice job, son.

Never a doubt in my mind
you'd come through.

Thanks, Chief.

Yeah,
that's Bradley's superpower.

He knows what he doesn't know.

So he knows a lot.

Okay, I lost the bet.
What do you want me to do?

I think you can guess.

Marci's office is in there.

I know.

I saw on her Instagram -

she always wanted to
open a clinic of her own.

So I was thinking,
something like,

"Hello, Marci."

How's that sound?

- That's... that's good.
- Good?

Right, well, I'll just go in
and say hello.

Not today, though.
Today's just a bit too soon.

- Yeah, baby steps.
- Right.

- You'll know when it's time.
- Mm hmm.

I don't mean to push.

Yes, you do. That's what
older sisters are for.

I prefer
'big sister' to 'older'.

Hm-mm.

No, I tower over you.
Big sister would be ridiculous.
