All right,
Slow down a little here.

Get into
The inside lane.

He's going to
Make a turn--

I got him. I see him.
He's right there.

I'm just going to
Hang back a little bit.

Okay.

There he is.

Okay.

He's headed
North on jackson.

Copy that, north on jackson.

Okay, we've got him.

Turned, headed west
On powell.

It's clear.
Go for it, go for it.

Here we go. All right.

He's weaving
All over the road.

He's anxious.

Well, we don't want to get him
Pulled over by a cruiser, do we?

That would screw things up
Nicely.

Yeah.

Hang on. I think
He's pulling over to park.

Run the yellow.

Oh, christ.
No, it's a deke.

Keep back, keep back,
Keep back, leo.

No. If I keep back any further,
I'll be on the moon.

He's pulling over
Right here.

No, wait a minute.
Look, he's parking.

Okay.

Hold up. We've got
A temporary stop here.

I'll just slide in here.

Copy. Hold back.

He's out mid-block.

I'm on foot here.

Copy that.
You've got primary.

[ reporter ]:
We're still live

Here at the scene
Of a possible arson.

No comments, unfortunately.

Dominic...

Oh, hey, sid,
How's it going?

I figured
I'd be seeing you.

Yeah, we were going
To get together for a drink.

Well, I figured
I'd be seeing you, so...

Yeah.

Well, look at this.
Here we are again.

Yeah.

This is nasty.

Yeah. It's a little too hot
To take you inside right now.

What's this
On the porch?

Well, come
And have a look.

It is hot.

Yeah.

Oh, gosh.

We found this woman
Here on the front porch,

And there's
Two kids inside.

Any survivors?

Yeah, the husband.
He's at the hospital.

See this guy,
This black guy?

He's at the mouth
Of the alley.

How long
Has he been here?

Uh, I think he was here
When I arrived.

He must be a neighbour.

Oh yeah?

Give me one second.
I'll be right back.

Got an e.T.A. On that yet?

Mr. Steadman...

Good morning.

No, no, no, no, no.
What are you doing here?

I was in the area,
Thought I'd take some pictures.

Why is that?

Because I wanted to.

Now, between you and me,

I don't think I feel good
About you being here.

It disturbs me,
And I think you know why.

There are other people here
Taking pictures.

Does that
Disturb you too?

Well, as a matter of fact,
Yeah, it does,

But they have a legit reason
For being here.

They're media.
You're not.

I want
To take a record of this.

There's a lot more arsons
Around here lately.

And as you can see,

There's a load
Of professionals here

Dealing with that,
Trying to do their jobs.

That's what I'm interested in.

Why don't you apply for a job
At the fire department, sir?

I've got a right to be here
And record the goings-on.

Have you got a scanner?

I'm a private citizen
And within my rights.

So if I go into
Your truck,

I'm not going to find
A police scanner in there?

Because if I do find one,

I'll have a very serious concern
About that.

What are you doing now,
Chasing fires?

Is that
What you're doing?

I'm a taxpayer
Observing my dollars.

If you want to really observe
Your tax dollars at work,

I'll get one of the uniforms
To take you in the back
Of his car

And he can go through
Your particulars, too.

Go ahead and do that.

This conversation is not over.
Expect a call from me.

He lost his daughter
In a fire

A number of years back.

He just can't seem
To get over it.

Oh yeah.

Sad.
Okay, sorry.

Okay, here's what I know
So far.

All right.

The fire call came in
At 3:10 this morning,

The first engine rolled in
11 minutes later.

Found the male occupant
Of the house

On fire
On the front steps.

He apparently tried
To reenter a couple of times

To save the kids

And couldn't get past
The front room.

So was he in the house
When the fire broke out?

Apparently,
He pulled his wife out,

Left her on the porch.

He went back inside,
Got severely burned,

But I haven't had an opportunity
To talk to him yet.

No, no, you stop that.
That's it.

You go home.

Thanks.

[ screams ]

[ screeches ]

[ horn honks ]

I think he's dead, man.

Hey! Hey!

[ horn blasts ]

Somebody just scooped the money,

Headed east in the alley
Between alexander and powell,

Blue track suit, six feet tall,
Black, male.

I don't know
If this guy's involved or not.

I think we just got hosed
By a bystander.

Let's go back to the street.

Don't let anyone get burned.
See what's going on there.

Check that guy in the truck.
See if he saw him run.

[ sirens wailing ]

[ sirens wailing ]

I'm on the job.

We're in the middle
Of a kidnapping.

There could be a suspect
In the crowd

Doing countersurveillance,
Watching.

Call an ambulance, take
The driver's statement.

I'll be in that
Cafe over there

If you need
Anything.

Okay.

Yeah, he's going
To get forensics on the way.

Yeah, we're--

Yeah, just come down the alley.

I'm...Behind the, uh,
Behind the marr.

Well, where are y--

Hey.

So the dead guy's
The pickup guy.

Now, we don't know if
He's working alone or what.

We think it was just
Some street guy

Who took off
With the ransom money
When he got hit.

Street guy.

Yeah.

We don't think the
Street guy's connected.

He just took advantage
Of the situation.

That's no good.

The victim's name
Is alice meisner.

Her father
Is ed meisner.

He's the one who
Dropped off the money.

The kidnappers
Informed him

Not to get in touch
With the police,

So we're trying
To play it that way.

I need you to
Just go in there,

Act like it's
A regular scene...

[ cellphone ringing ]

Get the body into
The morgue a.S.A.P.

Okay. I can do that
In about 20 minutes.

All right.
Kurtz. Hold on
One second.

And I need forensics
To get on this.

I'll let them know.

All right, that's
All we've got.

Okay.

Boy, you believe that?

A street guy
Gets away with the money?

Yeah. You know who he is,
This guy, the father, meisner?

No. Who is he?

He's a big lumber guy,
Okay.

Lumber.

Yeah. Big bucks.

Okay.

[ engine starts ]

[ police radio chatter ]

Get the scene taped off.

Make sure
They hold up the traffic

At both ends, okay?

Okay, let's take
A look here, zack.

Yeah, but she doesn't
Have a clue

What it is I do.

Who's that?
Kurtz.

I see more dead bodies
In a month

Than homicide sees
In a year.

What?

What's your point,
Zack?

She doesn't think
I've ever seen

A serious death.

I've seen things
That would curl her hair.

Okay. Who's the uniform?

I am.

What do we know, huh?

Um, the driver of the truck
Was coming south,

Doing the speed limit.

The victim suddenly
Steps off the curb,

Sprints in front of him.

You can see by the skid marks
Over there

He braked after he hit him.

Oh yeah. Yeah,
I see that. Yeah.

Let's just take
A quick look here.

Well, I'm seeing some
Evidence of needle use here.

Yeah, yeah, those
Look pretty fresh.

Yeah. Heavy user.

Now, my friend,

You're not having any needles
In these pockets, are you?

Because
That's the one part of my job

That doesn't endear me

To people in the street
Like you.

Nothing in the pockets here,
Zack.

Whoa--

There you go.

A set of keys.

House key?

House key.

That'll be a...
Car key.

Yeah. We can't tell anything
Until we see some numbers on it.

I'll take care
Of that.
Thank you, zack.

Look, don't let
The ambulance go.

I want them to take him
Right over to the morgue.

I'm going to take
Some pictures.

[ man ]:
Could he have been doing this
Alone?

Well, we're working out
A scenario

If that turns out
To be the case.

Have you had
Any further thoughts

About who might have
Kidnapped your daughter?

I'm a visible target,
I have money,

I don't hide
From the public...

Nobody's made
Any threats,

Nothing like that?

Well, only what I told
Your detective earlier.

We received some
Anonymous threats

Over the past
Few months

After we had some layoffs
At our logging operations,

Some e-mails.

We have somebody
Looking at those,

But nothing else?
No, no, nothing.

Is there anything
That you can tell me

About your daughter,

Something that might
Give us some indication

That anybody she knows
Is involved?

We haven't kept
In close contact.

Is she vulnerable
In any way?

Does she associate
With people

Who might
Consider this--

She's a recovering
Drug addict.

I guess that
Makes her vulnerable.

So perhaps she might have
Associated with people

Who would be aware
Of your wealth

And might take advantage
Of her situation.

Well, everybody knows
I have money.

You know what it's like.

She had money.

I never denied her
What she asked for,

So there were always
A lot of hangers-on.

Do you think it's possible
Your daughter might be involved?

I don't know.

I suppose
That's not impossible.

With anyone
In particular?

I don't remember anybody
Particularly,

Except the first one,
The boyfriend,

Um, terry something.

I think I probably

Have a photograph
Of him and my daughter

At my house--

Okay, we'll need to get that.

Also, do you recognize
The man in this photograph?

No, no.

Is this the man
Who's responsible for--

He picked up the money
You dropped off.

That's all we know.

Your relations
With your daughter,

What was the reason

That you didn't keep
In close contact?

Was there
Something wrong there?

No, no, the usual.

Some resentment, I think.

I tried to force her
Into treatment,

An intervention.

Is she still using?

I don't know.

I, um, I think so, sometimes.

Yes.

I don't know. I can't tell.

Okay.
What kind of drugs?

Heroin.

Heroin.

She just couldn't quit.

Hey.

So how long have you been
Back on the street?

A couple of weeks.
I can't get welfare anymore.

So what's going on?

I don't know
If you want to know this,

But just in case
You could use the information...

What is it?

Can we talk about money
Before I tell you what it is,

'cause last time,
I told you about the pig farm,

And, like, I thought
I got ripped off.

You didn't tell me
About the pig farm.

You didn't tell me a thing
About that.

The thing you told me about
Was completely unrelated.

Some of the same people
Were involved,

Some of the same girls.

Okay, well,

That's what happens
When you're working the street.

I mean,
You go with a lot of guys.

A lot of those guys
Know a lot of other people.

I mean, there's a lot of rumours
After the fact.

This isn't even related
To that.

I just thought I should get paid
A little more than you used to.

Okay, well,
We can discuss that.

Okay,

So this guy picks me up
The other night,

And so we go down
To the harbour here

And I do the date,

And suddenly,
He's pulling out a police badge

And telling me
It's a freebie,

And I'm all, "No, it's not.

Cops pay
Like everybody else,"

And so he's getting
All excited

And threatening me,

And so I go "Goodbye,"
And I hoof it.

Do you know who it was?
Did you get a name?

No. No name.
I got his badge number.

You got
His badge number?
Okay, what's that?

I don't have it here.
I got it somewhere else.

Are you sure
You got the right number?

Because, you know,
With this kind of accusation,

You want to make sure
It's accurate.

Oh, it's accurate.

It's stamped right there
On the badge.

You got his badge?

Yeah, I grabbed it
While he was flashing it,

And took off.

That's why he's so
Pissed at me,

And coming around
Threatening me

And telling the other girls
I'm bad news.

You actually stole his badge?

Yeah.

Well, I think
You'd better show it to me.

I mean, he could be
Impersonating an officer.

You know, gets himself
A fake badge.

Nope. That's my insurance.

I want a hundred dollars
For the name,

And 500 for the badge.

I thought
You didn't know the name.

You know what?
Let me think about it.

"Study long, study wrong."

The kids' room was upstairs.

Looks like they fell through
When the ceiling collapsed.

This is the original position?

Nobody's moved them?

No.

Are you done here?
Can I have the bodies?

Yeah, yeah.
We're done.

It's looking
Like an explosion.

Gas leak?

Yeah, yeah,
On the main floor.

Firefighters said

They thought it smelled
Like a gas fire.

Now, the father's
In the hospital?

Yeah, he's not in
Any condition

To talk
About what happened.
That's the latest.

Oh yeah?
Do you want me
To walk you through?

I'll show you
The gas line.

There's a gas stove
Here in the kitchen.

Sure, I'll be
Right with you.

Just give me one minute.

Do you want me
To have this truck towed

With you in it?
'cause I'll do it.

Again, what the hell
Are you doing here?

Watching the procedures.

Well, like I said before,
There are other procedures

I'll give you a real good
Close look at

In about one minute.

You're really starting
To scare me,

Mr. Steadman.

I worry about you.

Why?
You got a guilty conscience?

No, I'm not having
A guilty conscience.

What I'm having is

A premonition
Of me losing my temper,

Doing something that gets me
Charged with something.

I'm done here.

Yeah, you're damn right
You're done here.

Get this vehicle
Out of here.

Want to move these cones
Up here?

He's going to come
Right through.

And if I even hear of you,
Mr. Steadman,

Chasing any more fires,

I'm all over you.

You hear me?

Look, do you need some help?

If you need some help,
I'm the man to come to.

I'll get you the help you need.

You just do your job,
And I'll do mine.

Let's not get the two things
Mixed up

In future.

I do my job, you do yours.

That's right.

I was canvassing for witnesses
And noticed the truck here.

It had the car hooked up.

I'm asking the driver
To lower it down for me,

And he's telling me,

"Hey, man, once
I've get 'em hooked up,
I don't lower them.

That's the rules."
You believe that?

These guys are like a dog
With a t-bone.

Yeah. Well, he finally
Lowers it down for me.

Did you run
The plates?

They were stolen off
A car this morning.

Anyway, what with
One thing and another,

I figured

Maybe this was related
To your kidnapping.

Maybe. Good thinking.
Hey, don't mention it.

Let's take a look.

I've got
The insurance papers.

They said they got some keys
Out of the guy's pocket, right?

Yeah, car keys,
A couple of other keys.

Hey, you want
To call the evidence officer,

See if there's any keys
For this make?
You bet.

This is our kidnap victim's car,
Alice meisner.

This is her car.

What do we got here?
Looks like works.

Yeah, got some works here.

Yeah, maybe
He did a jimmy

To get himself right
For the ransom pick-up.

Da vinci said he was
A big drug user.

I'm not seeing
Blood anywhere.
Are you?

It's hard to tell.
There's so much junk in here.

Sandwich wrappers,
Couple of snotty kleenexes,

Cotton balls.
That'll be for the works.

Cigarette pack...

Yeah, I've got one of those.

We can't process this here.

We've got to get it
Down to the shop, eh?

What if somebody comes back?

Well, then, it's towed,
Like it is.

Call the other towing companies,
Let them know,

Tip them off.

If somebody
Comes looking for it,

Tell them to come on down.

You know,

Maybe he was running
Back here.

He parked the car here

When he went to
Pick up the ransom money.

Yeah. It's only
A couple of blocks away.

I guess we should
Pop the trunk.

Oh, lord.

May we pop the trunk?

[ tow driver ]: yeah.

From here?

You've got some bread,
Milk, some eggs.

Cat food?

We've got a receipt here.

They just got this stuff
This morning.

And we've got a shovel here
With dirt on it.

It's damp.
Yeah, it's fresh dirt.

Somebody's been doing
Some digging.

I don't like that.

We should get it
Down to chick,

See if he can
Lift prints,

Maybe tell us where
That dirt came from.

We've got to
Seize this car.

Hey, can you tow this down
To the ident garage for us?

Why do I do this job?

You love it.

Not today.

Hey, guess who
Was on the fire scene

When I get there?

Firemen.

Morris steadman, and
He's taking pictures.

Do we happen to know

If he ever saw a shrink
Or anything like that?

I don't recall hearing
Anything like that.

I do know

That he registered
A few complaints

With the chief

About the way
You handled things.

He complained to the chief
About me?

I didn't hear
About it until now?

Why wasn't I
Informed?

You were.

No.
You were.

You said that
You read them,

And then
That was it.

You still have those on file,
Right?

Yeah.

Because I'm going
To need those.

Okay.

What's in them?

Oh, well,
I'd have to refresh my memory.

Basically, he accused you
Of dereliction of duty.

He's right off his nut.
You know that.

He'd come in this office,

He was drunk, he was loaded,
Right?

A couple of occasions.

That's right,
A couple of occasions.

Now he's totally
Gone off his nut.

Dereliction of duty, huh?
Okay, you know what?

I got a picture of mr. Steadman
Right on there.

I want you to fire this off

To the arson squad

And just see if
Anybody's noticed mr. Steadman

Hanging around some
Other fire scenes lately.

That seems odd, doesn't it?

Yes, it does...

But, then, it's an odd day.

All right.

Any word on the guy
In the track suit?

No.

Dog squad followed him
Into an underground parking lot

And lost
His scent, so...

Worst-case scenario,
He was working alone.

Nobody pulls off a kidnapping
Alone. You know.

Did you hear
About that italian guy?

The italians are good
At this kidnapping thing.

What guy?

He was a count or whatever.

He's royalty, right,
But he's broke.

He sold every stick of furniture
In the joint,

And he comes up with
The "I'll kidnap myself" idea,

Right, so he disappears,

Calls up his friends,
And he says,

"I've been kidnapped.
Send some money."

They said, "Prove it,"

So this guy,
He cuts off his own ear,

And he sends it
To them.

Here's your hundred.

Okay. Thanks.

So what
Are you going to do

If you see him again?

Well, he's going to be
Nice to me, right?

Yeah? Why do you figure that?

Because he wants
His badge back.

So what are you going to do
To him?

Just going to
Keep an eye on him,

That's all.

Yeah. Not like
He's the only one.

Just good to know,
Right?

Yeah, yeah,
It's good to know.

Listen, anybody asks,
You never told me, okay?

What we say, you and me,
To each other,

Is going to be
Off the record.

Okay.

That's cool with me.

All right.

So what's his name?

It's brian.
Brian?

Yeah, he's a vice cop.

Brian in vice.
Yeah,

And he's got a buddy
From the narc squad.

He's even worse.

What do you mean, worse?

Well, he drives around
Busting dopers,

Stealing their stash,
Like that.

You know
That guy's name?

Yeah, it's joe.
Everybody knows him.

Like, you see joe coming,

Or joe and brian coming,
And you'd better run.

I want to see the badge.

You've got to buy it
If you want to see it. Sorry.

Hey, I'll need some napkins
And some soy sauce.

A lot of partial prints
On the car, everywhere.

I'm still
Sorting them out,

But so far, the prints
On the steering wheel

And off of the syringe
You found,

They match a
James walter kindrick,

Goes by "Walt."
That's your kidnapper.

Walt. Okay.
He's in the system.

Drug possession,
Trafficking, and assault.

There's also
A few other partials
I picked up.

Some belong
To your kidnap victim.

She's on record.

She also has a conviction
For possession,

But, uh, a couple
On the passenger door

Belong to another guy
In the system.

Terry leroy becker?

Yeah, also
For trafficking.

Now, sergeant kurtz
Called,

Said that he's the
Victim's ex-boyfriend.

Well, it could be like
We were thinking, then,

The ex-boyfriend
Could be involved in this

With this guy,
Kindrick.

Well, they broke up
A while back,

And his prints could
Still be on the car

Even if they haven't had
Any contact.

[ leo ]:
Anybody out
Looking for him?

Yeah, apparently,

They've got somebody
Sitting on his place.

I'm heading over
To autopsy

To take a look
At the dead guy.

You got somebody
Working on the dirt

Off of that shovel?

Yeah.

It's mostly potting soil,
Some manure,

But the topsoil in it
You could find

In almost any
Vancouver backyard.

Oh, great. I can see
Where that's going.

Yeah.
Aw, I forgot
The chopsticks.

Catch you later.

[ faint car alarm
Blares ]

55 charlie.

I've got a positive
On terry becker.

He's driving a grey camaro,
Late '80s,

License plate number uhg 324.

Copy that.

[ knocks ]

Hi. Anything on steadman?

I only just sent them
His picture.

What do you think he wants?

What's he going to find out
About his daughter

By chasing around
Other fire scenes?

Well, I imagine
He's still grieving.

I don't think
There's a shelf life on that.

Well, you know
What's going to happen.

He's going to keep picking
At that scab,

And it's never
Going to heal.

Do I have to be somewhere?

You have an autopsy
In about five minutes,

But before you go,

You know the survivor
From the fire.

I know the survivor?

You did an inquest
Five years ago.

He was involved.

This is the father
We're talking about?

Mm-hmm.
He survived a fire
Very similar.

Glenn moorehouse.

Moorehouse...Okay.

Yeah, yeah,
I remember.

Remind me.

He lost
His wife and child

In a house fire
That was started by tile glue
In the basement.

Oh yeah. I do remember.

Okay, I need to see the files,
All of the files.

Oh, look at that.

Oh, that's what you brought me.
Great.

Do you want me
To let autopsy know
You'll be delayed?

Yeah. I'll have to sit here
And look at these files.

Are you sure
This is the same moorehouse?

This moorehouse had a family
Who died in that fire.

Same guy. He remarried.

With the second family he lost
In the second fire?

That's right.

Do me a favour

And get hold
Of the fire investigator.

It's sid.

Sid fleming was on
The previous moorehouse fire
With you.

Oh, gosh, you're right.

Okay, he's going to want to know
It's the same guy.

You got it.

Pretty crappy place

For somebody
Whose dad's a billionaire.

Yeah.

Maybe she owns the building.

Yeah. Oh, hang on
A second.

Hey.

In the girl's car,

We found a shovel with some dirt
On it.

You might want
To take a walk around,

See if there's a garden out back
With some dirt disturbed.

All right. Yeah.

[ baby cries within ]

Hey, rose.

Gentlemen.

Booties, please.

Box by the door.

What are we
Looking at here?

What I see so far,

There's no sign
Of any forced entry.

Now, the front door
Was unlocked when I arrived,

So either she was in the habit
Of keeping it open,

Or she left it open
When she left.

No sign
Of her being taken out of here

Forcibly?

No. No witnesses
Or anything like that.

But take a look
In the bedroom.

You tell me.

Two needles,
Two spoons.

She was shooting up
With someone.

Could have been yesterday
Or last week.

Last month, maybe.

I think it was recent.

If you're maintaining,

You've got to keep
Your needles close by.

You got a point there.

The way they give away
Needles in this city,

Anybody can get a rig.

They got a delivery van

That brings them
Right to your door.

It could have been anybody
Shooting up.

What do you mean?

Well, you see two syringes,
You think two people,

But it could have been
One guy with two fits,

Or two other people,

Or her, or anybody.

You don't want to be
Jumping to conclusions here.

Well, nobody's jumping
To any conclusions, leo.

Oh, it sounded like that
To me.

I can have ident
Check the syringes for prints.

We have hers on record,
And we have the pickup guy's.

We can answer that one
Pretty quick.

What do we got here?

What do you got?

Leaflets here, from a--

Oh yeah.

Her dad did one
Of those interventions.

This is the place
He must have put her into.

So we've got no signs
Of forced entry,

No struggle,

Just somebody getting high.

Well, I've
Seen enough.

Rose, why don't you
Stick around here,

See if you come up
With anything else?

If you do,
Give us a call.

Anything you say, leo.

Was she being smart
Back there?

Who, rose?

Yeah, rose.

Smart with you?

Yeah, with me.

I don't know what
You're talking about.

"Whatever you say, leo."

What was that?

You were giving her
Plenty of attitude.

She was just giving
A little back.

Well, I don't like
Her attitude.

You like her attitude,

You two
Should get together.

[ cellphone ringing ]

Just making
An observation, leo.

That's all
I was doing.

Yeah?
You find anything?

Nobody was doing any digging
That I saw.

Okay.

Well, let's do it, then.
Right now.

Kurtz wants us to
Pick up the boyfriend.

I do not want to open
This can of worms.

I'm not saying
Anything's wrong.

I'm just saying

I don't like
The coincidence here.

Hey, I remember
The first fire.

I remember it
Clear as a bell.

I don't need
To go over it.

I just want
To freshen up
Our memory on this.

Let's just deal
With this incident here.

Come on. That first fire
Is a closed case, dom.

We don't want to go
Digging in it again.

Let's just refresh it, okay,

So if something goes wonky
On this here one,

We've got
A term of reference.

Okay.

Well, if I recall,
The first fire,

The guy was out
Of the home.

In this incident,
He's in the home, badly burned.

He went back in
To save the others.

So he's in there
When the fire went up.

He's in there
Sleeping?

No, I did not
Say that!

I didn't
Interview him.

It's just a question.

Suddenly,
There's a lot of questions.

Which is why
We want to go slow

And cover
Our procedures.

We did a good job
On the first one.

Yeah, but remember,

More than one guy
Thought we made a wrong call.

I remember that.

I'm saying I'm happy
With our first finding.

Okay, me too.

I'm just saying
What we've got to do here

Is just look
And see what's similar.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay, first off,

Guy survives

While his wife
And children perish.

That's identical.
We know that much.

We know that much.

Even if this turns out
To look like arson,

We've got to be aware

There's been a few arsons
In this neighbourhood.

We cannot get
Tunnel vision here.

No, no, no tunnels.
No, no.

Heads up.

That's what we're
Talking about here.

Guys...

That's him
There in the window.

He left his apartment
About 20 minutes ago,

Drove here.

Sergeant says
We should take him now.

If he's involved,

He might not know
His partner's been killed,

He's still waiting
For a phone call.

He's just been
Sitting there

Having his meal.

Seems pretty calm
About the whole thing.

Well, you guys
Take him.

I'll bring
The wheels.

Jeez!

Vancouver police, man.

Shut up.

I didn't do
Anything.

Terry, keep
Your mouth shut.

Right now,
Alice is missing,

And you don't
Want to be seen

As involved in anything
More serious than that.

Where is she?

I haven't seen her
In two or three months.

I just got back
From seattle yesterday.

So you were
Out of town

When your girlfriend
Was abducted?

Some might say
It looks a little convenient.

I was in the rehab centre.

You can check.

I'm not involved
In it.

You guys should be
Spending your time

Looking
At somebody else.

Yeah? Like who
In particular?

I have no idea.

[ terry ]:
You're wasting your time
With me.

Please...I wouldn't lie to you
About this.

How long were
You in the rehab?

Three months.

So you're clean now?

Yeah.

Roll up your sleeve.

Roll up your sleeve.

Rehab didn't take, huh?

I'm doing okay.

Oh, you're doing great.

Three months in the clinic,
First day back, you get high.

Should call up
The rehab centre--

They've graduated
Another success story.

So did you try
And contact alice

As soon as you
Came back to town?

No.

What about this guy?
You seen him?

What happened
To him?

Doesn't matter.
Do you know him?

Yeah.
Who is he?

Jimmy.
He never told me
His last name.

James walter kindrick,
Could that be it?

I don't know.
It could be.
I told you--

What's your
Relationship
With him?

Sometimes
I'd score from him.
That's it.

Did he know alice?

Yeah, the three of us
Got high together

A couple of times.

The three of you?

Okay.

So his alibi checks out.

He got out of rehab
Two days ago.

Well, he still could be involved
In the planning of it,

Got the other guy
To do the rest.

No, I don't
Think so.

Anything else
Come in?

Yeah, we got a witness
Who gave us an I.D.

On the guy
In the track suit.

He got out of lockup an hour
Before he scooped up the money.

He wasn't involved
In the abduction.

Know where he is?
Nope.

No other contact
From the kidnappers,
No demands?

Nope.
Nothing at all.

Okay, let's just see
What the differences really are.

Now, the first fire--

This fire started
In the middle of the night.

Now, that first fire,

It was, like,
10:30 in the morning

That the fire hall
Got the call, right?

Yeah, about then.

Okay, what was
The response time
On this one?

11 minutes.

I haven't spoken
With all of the
Witnesses,

But you think
When this happens,
It's a pretty big noise.

Now, see,

Across
The alley there,

You see
All of the glass

That's blown right into
The neighbour's yard?

That's quite a force.

All right.
Now, previous fire,

That one started
In the basement.

Yeah, by
The laundry tubs.

The glue
He was putting
Down on the floor,

He was laying
The tiles down.

Right, and so
The fumes from that

Were ignited
By the pilot light

From the hot water...
Hot water tank there.

That's what we figured.

Or the hot water tank
Fired up.

Either way,
Gas was a part of that fire.

It's looking
Like it's a part of this one.

What about combustibles?

Well, I looked
In the garage,

And that's, uh,

Well, all of
The combustibles

Are under lock and key
Out there.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Paints,
Thinners, glue,

It's all locked up tight
In a cabinet.

Really?

My thinking here
Is ruptured gas line.

Okay. What about
The insurance deal?

Don't know yet.

That'll come out
Tomorrow

When the insurance companies
Hear about it.

I feel like the hand of god
Reached down and smacked me,

Said, "Hey, wake up.
Pay attention."

Uh-huh.

I hope and pray
This is an accident.

Yeah.

Say, who was that guy,
The guy that was
Hanging around?

Steadman.

Yeah.
He's been reported
At other fires.

He has?

Yeah. You think
He'd set a fire?

I don't think he's that nuts
To actually set fires,

But I'm concerned
About his mental health.

He's been obsessing.

Well, people can
Do some pretty crazy things

When they go through
Some trauma.

They get stressed,
You can see some
Bizarre behaviours.

Post-traumatic stress.
Not good.

So what's his beef
With you?

He thinks
We overlooked something.

That's a normal reaction.

The grief's
Been hanging on for years.
He won't get help.

Well, he's been seen
At some other fires.
You wanted to know.

Oh, good.
Well, not that good,

But thanks.
It is good to know.

I got this fantastic
Little fishing cabin

Up by the lake.

I go up there on the weekends,
You know.

It's, like, a three-hour drive.
It's beautiful.

You should come up.

I've got plans
Already.

Come on, break them.
Come with us.

[ kosmo ]:
Hey, brian.

Hey, angie.

Long time.

Yeah, yeah.
Long time.

What's going on?

Nothing. Just, you know,
Sitting here having lunch.

Still working.

Um, you made homicide, right?
Congratulations.

Yeah. That was, like,
Four years ago.

Well, it's a belated
Congratulations,

But that's awesome.

You still with vice?

Yeah. Well, you know,
It's kind of hard to give up.

You know...

Um, this is my suki.

Suki,
Angela. Angie.

Angie baby.

Suki's in vice.

Hey. Nice to meet you.

Yeah. Good to meet you.

Oh, and joe.

Hey, joe.

Yeah, I think we met
A while ago.

Yeah, we did.

You're with narcotics?

Yeah, that's right.

I think maybe we met
At a party somewhere.

You know mick leary?

Yeah. Yeah, okay.

Now I remember.

Well, take it easy.

It was good
Seeing you, brian.

You too, you too.

You look good,
As per usual.

Really.

Anyway, so it's just
A wonderful place to go.

It's, like, three hours
Up the highway.

I've got
This little boat.

There's a couple
Of rooms,

So it's private.

You should
Definitely come up.

Yeah. You got to have
Some holiday time coming up.

Yeah.
So come to the lake.

I'll think about it.

How about you, angie?

Want to come up to the lake
With me and brian?

Uh, some other time,
But thanks anyway.

Anything off his body
At the autopsy?

Yeah, cat hair
And garden soil.

Cat hair?

Well, we did get
That tin of cat food

Out of the grocery bag
From the car there.

But we didn't see a cat
In her apartment,

No evidence of that.

No sign of a cat.

The cat's his cat.

No, I was at his apartment.
The cat's not his.

It could be anybody's cat.

That hair just floats
On the wind.

He could have picked it up
Anyplace.

Well, if it helps,

It was an orange cat,
Probably a male.

You can tell it's a male
By the hair?

Most orange cats
Are males.

Yeah? How does that happen?

Nobody knows.

It doesn't really
Matter anyway.

The cop at the scene took
A blanket out of his cruiser

And threw it on the guy,

So the hair could be
From anywhere.

All right,
It's been 12 hours

With no further contact
From the kidnappers,

So let's get a photograph
Out to the media outlets

And hope
That somebody's seen her.

Also, get kindrick's
Photograph out there.

Same thing,

If anybody recognizes him
And knows anything.

Get ready
To man the phones.

Rose, hold on a second.
Bring me up to speed.

What about
Kindrick's apartment?

Anything there?

I talked to his landlady.

He hasn't been home
In over a week.

She was nice enough
To let me in,

Where I found
Some pay stubs.

Kindrick worked

For one of those medical supply
Delivery places.

They deliver what you need
If you're a shut-in.

I called
His employer,

And kindrick hadn't been to work
For a couple of weeks.

So he stashes her someplace,
Goes off to get the money,

And now she's left waiting

For somebody
Who's not going to show up.

Okay, well,

What's left to do?

I was going to take a run
At kindrick's employer,

See what his route
Around the city was.

Maybe an abandoned house
Or something along his route

Stands out.

Yeah, well, hopefully,

Somebody in the public's
Seen something somewhere.

Hope so.

Okay, let me know.

You got the badge
With you?

Yep.

There you go.

There you go.

It's the real thing.
See?

Yeah, it's the real thing.

You don't want it?

No, no,
You keep it.

I mean,
If you run into brian again,

I don't want him beating on you
For it.

Just give it back.

Why?

I want you to stay close
To him, get friendly.

You can keep the $500.

Okay.

[ knocking ]

[ banging ]

Mailman
Was delivering some mail,

Hadn't seen the old lady
Who lives here

For a couple of weeks,

So he gives us a call.

Uniform checks it out

And gets a whiff
Of a real bad smell

Coming through the door.

There's a big hole dug
In the backyard.

Maybe he was thinking
About burying her

And didn't get around to it.

That could account
For the shovel.

Yeah.

Kindrick was delivering
Medical supplies

To the elderly owner,

I'm thinking
He found her dead one day,

Just decided
To take the place over.

Looks like he was living here
For a while.

Here you go.

That's alice?

Yeah.

Appears to me
She was upstairs,

Tied up like she is,

Was trying to
Come down the stairs,

Maybe get to a phone,

Chair tipped over,
Down she went.

Neck's broken.

Yeah, I think so.

Where's
The other woman?

She's in her bedroom
At the end of the hall.

Looks like she died
In her sleep.

Okay.

I'll look upstairs.
