Wow!

I have not seen so much
vomit since frosh week.

Oh, stick with this job,

you'll see plenty more
where that came from.

Yeah.

So, I think that maybe
you and I need a drink?

Yeah, okay.

Are you buying? Is that-

- I'm buying, yeah.
- You're buying? Okay.

Careful, Elyse.

Slippery slope with this guy.

She offered!

That was an offer, right?

I'm gonna get changed.

I'll let you know where we're gonna go.

Yeah, okay.

Hm.

What's that?

What?

This look.

- I was just looking-
- Right.

- At her.
- Mm-hmm.

Maybe my love life has been
stagnating a little lately

and it's time I bought a clue.

So what does that mean?

It means that, uh, your man Oz here

might just be putting
himself back on the market.

- Hm!
- Yeah.

Okay.

Leaf game tonight at Freddy's?

They. The playing the Penguins?

A few days.

- Okay.
- Bruins tonight.

Ugh, Bruins.

- What?
- I'll be crying into my beer

by the second period.

No crying.

We own them tonight.

Yeah! All right!

Oz!

Hey!

Ah!

I just got back, but I
wanted to surprise you

before I started my shift.

I, uh... I have so much
to tell you. Can I...

I'll call you later? Yeah?

Okay. Hey, Toby.

Hey, Sandy.

Timing is everything, right?

Not a word.

Uh, ladies and gentlemen.

Uh, directors, management
team, and guests.

I'd like to take this moment to announce

that this has been
Cooper-Weiss Pharmaceuticals'

most profitable year ever.

So let's all raise a
slender glass of bubbly.

And I'd like to make this toast to you,

to the people

without whom none of this
would have been possible.

Cheers!

- To all of you.
- And while we're at it,

let's toast to seven-year-old Amy Kalb,

who liked running, and playing softball,

and drawing pictures of horses.

Sir,

this is a private event.
- And now lies

in Mount Pleasant Cemetery

after being prescribed
Cooper-Weiss' Jannex!

You are out of line, sir.

All right, can somebody
please call secu...

Jeffrey?

Call 911!

We need an ambulance!

He can't be dead.

Please tell me he's not dead.

I know how you must feel, Ms.?

Christa Merker.

I'm VP of production at Cooper-Weiss.

We'll do everything we
can to catch who did this.

I have to go check
out this other victim.

Yeah.

So what's the story?

Poisoning.

As far as we can tell,
it's a prank gone wrong.

There have been six victims,
but so far only one fatality,

a big one:

Jeffrey Brandt, CEO of
Cooper-Weiss Pharmaceuticals.

Could it be accidental?

I've ordered a tox
screening on the whole buffet.

It's a shame too,

'cause the shrimp
cocktail looks delicious.

But as far as we can tell,

it's a focused attack on the
members of the head table.

Suspects?

There's suspect number one, right there.

His name is Harold Kalb.

He's one of the organizers
of this protest group

that was picketing the dinner.

He made a scene during Brandt's speech,

and 10 seconds later, the head table

were dropping like flies
and Brandt was dead.

Okay, well, I'll start talking to anyone

who had access to the food.

All right.

- Hey!
- Is Brandt's wife

gonna make it?

Well, her heart rate's erratic,
but she'll be stabilized.

It's a funny thing, it
looks a lot like salmonella,

but food poisoning usually
takes a little longer.

So what's with the protesters?

Two years ago, Cooper-Weiss released

an anti-rejection drug called Jannex.

It shot Cooper-Weiss to the big leagues,

but it's been linked to four deaths.

Right. So, do we believe these claims?

Not our focus.

Right now, we sweat this waiter

and find out what the hell happened here.

I've been telling you all night:

I never even touched the food.

What about the champagne?

It was already on the table.

All I did was open the
bottle and fill the glasses.

So you poured six
glasses at the head table,

proposed a toast, but
you didn't take a sip?

This is personal for you, isn't it?

We know you lost your daughter.

That's why you and your wife
started the class action suit.

We waited two
years for a new kidney.

Amy was seven years old,

spending 20 hours a week in dialysis.

The doctor said everything
was supposed to be okay.

To make sure that there was no rejection,

the doctor prescribed a new wonder drug.

Jannex.

A week later, her
immune system shut down.

And then the pneumonia hit her.

Another day and she-

I can understand why you
would wanna hurt the people

that did this to her.

I didn't put anything in that champagne.

I didn't wanna hurt
anyone, just to shame them.

Well, between us, a few
suits spewing their foie gras

does have a certain entertainment value.

I wanted them to confront what they did

so that what happened to my
Amy never has to happen again.

Then someone else from
your group did this?

No!

The people in my group are the victims!

I didn't poison anyone.

I ran the catering staff.

They're all long-term employees.

There's no connection to
Cooper-Weiss, no criminal records.

And they all travel and work in groups,

so they all have alibis

for at least two hours before the event.

And how about Kalb?

Well, I think he snuck in

when the catering staff was distracted.

So he had access to the
room and the champagne.

What about the other guests?

From the reports I've received,

there was a bunch of people
milling about the head table,

but none of them had a
problem with the company.

Did we get anything
from the coroner's office?

The lab did Brandt's blood work.

They found this in the
bottle of champagne.

Digitoxin.

It's a poison derived from foxglove.

It mimics salmonella but
acts a whole lot quicker.

So someone was trying to make
it look like food poisoning.

But witnesses said they saw Kalb

uncork the bottle at the table.

I got them to check the cork.

They said they found a
small puncture in the cork

like someone maybe injected
the bottle with poison.

Why did Brandt die and
the others just get sick?

Maybe he ingested more?

Could he have had a pre-existing condition

that made him more
vulnerable to the digitoxin?

The coroner's still working
on his medical records.

But otherwise, the digitoxin

should've landed him in a
hospital bed, not the grave.

All right, keep looking.

Klein still thinks Kalb's our best bet.

Yeah, well, I can't confirm

that he knew the poison was in the bottle.

And- And I get the feeling
he was as surprised

as everyone else when
people started getting sick.

Well, we don't have anyone
else with better motive.

If he wanted to poison the head table,

why isn't he taking credit for it?

I get the feeling he
just wanted to be heard.

Don't let your sympathy
cloud your judgment.

These people have
every reason to be upset.

They're just regular
folks who became victims.

Okay, so let's throw the net wider.

I'll get Dev to look at
the other protesters,

see if any of them have
a history of violence.

I'm glad to be back, but
battling heat, exhaustion,

viruses, and snakes is not as bad

as fixing doctors' sloppy patient reports.

Can you just give me a second?

Hey, Oz! You wanna go grab a coffee?

Hey!

Uh, I can't.

I'm so busy right now.

I'm behind on paperwork.

Ryder's been all over my ass.

Oh.

I just thought, you know, since
I've been away for a while-

- Yeah!
- You'd wanna spend some time-

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

So, um, maybe after work?

Yeah, I don't-

I don't know when I'm
actually done with work, so...

This is Ryder.

Okay.

I gotta go. I'll call you.

You're sure?

All right, send me the results right away.

That's why you're my favorite.

She's not my favorite.

So I dug up Brandt's medical records.

There's nothing that could
combine with digitoxin

to kill him.

And we already know
the cardiac arrhythmia

wasn't triggered by the digitoxin.

Anyone else would have stopped there,

but I always go that extra mile.

Yeah, especially with
self-congratulation.

So I did another tox
screening on Brandt's glass,

and guess what they found.

Amygdaline.

- That's a marker for cyanide.
- Yeah.

It was a trace so small

that no one would have
ever really noticed it.

But combined with the digitoxin,
it was enough to kill.

What about the other glasses?

Brandt's was the only one

that came up positive for cyanide.

So whoever put the
digitoxin in the champagne

also put the cyanide in Brandt's glass.

They must've wanted it to
look like food poisoning.

So we're not looking at a
case of corporate mischief.

Jeffrey Brandt was targeted for murder.

This might change things.

Maybe Harold didn't kill Brandt after all.

Well, what it means
is we've been looking

at the wrong crime.

The old suspect might still apply.

So where do we go from here?

Well, knowing we have a specific victim

means we start looking
for specific motives.

Well, I don't know if I found a motive,

but I did find someone who
had a beef with Brandt.

So I was checking the security tapes

of a bank down the street

to see when Harold entered the hall.

I couldn't see Harold, but I did see this.

Jeffrey Brandt.

Who's he's arguing with?

Her name's Christa Merker.

I talked with her at the scene.

She's VP of production.

Well, she looks like
one very unhappy lady.

Jeffrey was the best
boss that I ever had.

Is there anyone in the office

who had a problem with the company?

Nobody.

Everybody is here because
they believe in Cooper-Weiss.

What we do for people.

Well, the protesters see it differently.

They don't understand
Jeffrey's mission statement.

"Ethics before profit."

What were
you two arguing about?

It was stupid.

I found a small
discrepancy in our numbers.

If a quarter million
can be considered small.

What was the discrepancy?

It was a bookkeeping error.

I guess I shouldn't
have asked him about it

before the dinner.

He got mad.

He said he needed to keep his focus.

Can you be more specific
about this bookkeeping error?

I can't talk specifics
about company business.

Even if it could help
find your boss's killer?

Jeffrey why you?

Why did it have to be you?

I'm sorry.

Okay. Well, Thank you for your time.

Please, call if you
think of anything else.

Well, did your superpowers get anything?

Yeah, I think she knows
a lot more about the books

than she's letting on.

They were off by a quarter million.

- Did you see where it went?
- No.

But she was talking to Jeffrey Brandt

about something to do with it.

So whoever took it

might have killed Brandt
to cover their tracks.

There's our motive!

Hold on.

Hey!

Okay, good.

Thanks for getting back to me.

Brandt's wife is able to talk now.

Mrs. Brandt is stable but
heavily sedated, so go easy.

- Okay.
- Cool.

Mrs. Brandt?

I'm Sergeant McCluskey.

This is Special Agent Logan.

We'd like to ask you a few
questions, if that's okay?

Why did they do it?

Why did...

Why did they kill my husband?

Well, that's what we'd
like to talk to you about.

We found cyanide in his system.

We believe your husband was murdered.

No.

Do you know anyone who would
want to harm your husband?

We know who did it.

The protesters...

My husband was a good man.

I know this is difficult.

Did your husband have
any specific enemies?

Vallance is in charge of the
money. This is on his head!

Did he ever talk about
missing money from the company?

I don't know anything about money.

I can't help you.

Please leave.

Okay.

Yeah?
- Michelle, it's me.

One of the guests at
the Cooper-Weiss party

came forward with some
camera phone footage

of what happened at the head table.

Anything interesting?

The CFO, Thomas Vallance,
he didn't get sick.

In fact, it turns out he didn't
drink the champagne at all.

Okay, we'll check him out. Thanks.

Claire thought about

Brandt talking to someone on the phone.

He blamed Vallance for
something to do with the money.

Let's see if he's to
blame for anything else.

I'm surprised the IIB has
gotten involved in this.

Well, Jeffrey Brandt
was an important man.

That makes his homicide
something we're interested in.

"Homicide?" You're
saying he was murdered?

Why?

By who?

Well, we were hoping you could tell us.

Well, I don't know.

Someone was trying to kill
everybody at that table.

Not quite.

His glass was laced with cyanide.

He was specifically targeted.

You had a lot to gain from his death.

Oh, you're accusing me?

We understand you're going to be

the new CEO of Cooper-Weiss.

Pending board approval.

You two also had an argument
about a missing sum of money.

That was a discrepancy in the books.

It has been made right.

A simple accounting error.

But there were other
differences as well.

Look, he was an idealist.

I'm a bottom-line guy.

But the fact is, we needed each other.

And you guys had no problems?

Look, you can't go on
like this. No, listen to me.

No, you listen to me!

We're done.

All right, fine. I'll
meet you at the Magnolia.

Nothing that couldn't be
sorted out peacefully.

So you were at the head table,

yet you didn't drink the champagne?

I'm on antibiotics.

You can check with Dr. Lang.

My assistant will be happy
to give you his number.

We'll do that.

Look, if you really wanna
know who killed Jeffrey,

why aren't you talking to the people

who were howling outside our dinner?

The protesters.

Did you know last week, one of
them dumped a bucket of blood

on Jeffrey's car as he
was leaving the lot?

Kalb.
- The waiter, yeah.

Harold Kalb, we know.

No. I'm not talking about Harold.

I'm talking about his wife, Rebecca.

Vallance was lying
to us about something.

I got him on his phone
arguing with someone.

I think it might have been Brandt.

He said they were done.

You know, I kind of felt
like they were on the point

of some kind of break.

You know, maybe Brandt's
murder was the next step.

I'll have Dev check the phone records.

I did throw the blood on his car.

Someone had to get through to him.

We have a witness who believes

you are capable of a lot more.

That wouldn't happen
to be Thomas Vallance?

He's been trying to
discredit us for months.

He knows our daughter was the victim,

that her story will sell newspapers.

What story is that?

That Jannex has fatal side effects.

They knew and they covered it up.

So you must really hate Jeffrey Brandt.

His product killed my daughter.

But that doesn't mean
that I wanted to kill him.

Was there anyone else from your group

who was out for revenge?

Why are you picking on the victims?

My husband was in the wrong
place at the wrong time.

Leave us alone!

So I searched for members
of Kalb's organization

and cross-referenced with a
list of threatening letters

to the company.

One of them stood out among the rest.

It was sent by this guy:

Charlie Enzo, 36 years old.

He was an early test case for Jannex.

This guy sent a series of
letters that could be described

as death threats to the company.

He was a member of the
Jannex class action suit

but dropped out three weeks ago.

This was his last known photo.

So, what?

He's dead?

Well, there's no obituary,
but here's where it gets weird.

Apparently, he left his
apartment and just disappeared.

He was last seen at the hospital
for his dialysis treatment.

Charlie Enzo.

He was in about three
weeks ago, on the 4th.

This is gonna take a while.

You wanna grab a coffee?

Uh, yeah.

I'll walk with you.

Okay.

Cool.

Can I ask you a question?

Sure.

And you have to answer me honestly.

Depends on the question.

You think Oz and I are
good for each other, right?

Wow! I should've told you to lie.

What do you want?

- Decaf.
- You want decaf?

It just...

It kind of feels like he's
been avoiding me lately.

Okay, look.

Uh, Oz is a, uh...

He's a sensitive guy.

You know, when you suddenly
left to follow your dreams,

it kind of took the wind out of his sails.

I just think he doesn't
wanna get hurt again.

I didn't mean to hurt him.

I know.

Just that when your dream goes sideways,

doesn't mean you can come back

and expect everything to
be like what it was before.

What if I told you my
dream didn't go sideways?

Six weeks away can focus a girl.

I just kept reading all of his emails,

and I knew I had to come back.

You quit?

I missed him.

Stupid, huh?

So what do I do?

Well, uh...

I don't know. I mean, this
is gonna take a little time.

You gotta finesse this, a little TLC.

I could get him something.

- Right.
- Something Special.

It's gotta be good!

This is the guy who got you
a mailbox full of roses,

who put you in a hot-air balloon,

tried to take you away to
the Caribbean on a whim.

Uh, the Leafs.

They play the Pens
tomorrow night. I could...

He'd kill for tickets.

He would kill for those ticket.

Ah, thank you, Tobe.

- My pleasure.
- Oh! Here we go.

"Enzo, Charles."

Yeah, we do have a pick-up address listed.

Yeah?

Nice.

You're never gonna guess where.

Cool.

Thank you.

This is where
a terminal patient lives?

Yeah! I'd like his healthcare plan.

Well, if you get
anything, go easy on him, okay?

He might be extremely vulnerable.

Charlie Enzo?

Looks like the
party's over, ladies.

We need to talk to you
about Jeffrey Brandt's murder.

Oh, he's dead?

Imagine that!

He beat me.

You're barking up the wrong tree.

I had nothing to do with it.

Then allow me to read from the letter

that you wrote to the company.

"Before I die, I'm gonna
see Jeffrey Brandt skinned

and fed to rabid wolverines."

Okay.

Maybe I went a bit far
with the wolverine thing.

But I'm in a different place
now.

I've grown to accept my fate.

When they paid you off.

Cooper-Weiss gave you $250,000.

We checked your bank account.

You wanna tell us otherwise?

What do you want me to say?

I took money.

From Brandt?

From the company.

I signed a letter saying
I'd dropped out of the suit.

I felt bad abandoning the
others, but we weren't gonna win.

What else could I do?

Look at me now.

You know, I used to run marathons.

Now I can't
run across the street.

I do understand your anger.

No, you don't.

I sunk every penny I had
into beating those bastards.

For every lawyer I threw at
them, they threw two back.

But, hey, at least I'm
going out with a bang, eh?

By spending your money
on booze and girls?

No, not all of it.

If you must know, I made
an anonymous donation

to the anti-Jannex group, help
them with their legal fees.

I gave up.

That doesn't mean they have
to.

So, Enzo's donation checks out.

The class action suit
received an anonymous

$100,000 donation

four hours after he took
out the money order.

It left four days after that.

So where'd it go?

Nobody knows.

So maybe it was the one paying

to take the fight to the next level.

If the poisoning was a paid hit,

then who's our mysterious outsider?

Doesn't seem to be Harold Kalb

Whoever it was, they would've
had access to the champagne

and the glasses before the meal.

But with all the people
milling about the lobby,

anybody in the room could
have had opportunity.

And they would've had
to have the seating plan

to know which glass was Brandt's.

What about Vallance?

He hated Brandt.

He paid out the 1/4 million,
and he didn't drink the bubbly.

He had a prescription for antibiotics.

I double-checked with his dentist.

And you've never bent the rules

when you're on antibiotics?

Point taken.

But if he were the killer,

then don't you think he
would've drank the digitoxin

to cover his tracks?

When in doubt, follow the money.

So, uh, I just have a few new questions.

We were actually able to
meet up with Charlie Enzo.

He's the guy who received
the missing $250,000.

You guys are good.

Even I couldn't figure out where it went.

Right.

Well, I think you know who paid it to him.

Jeffrey, you know
Vallance took the money.

You could tell them.

Thank you.

So...

Thomas Vallance, he had a lot
to gain from Jeffrey's death.

I mean, what were they fighting about?

After Jannex,

Jeffrey wanted more
transparency in his testing.

He planned to introduce
testing by an independent body.

I take it that's not
how Jannex was tested.

We pay the lab a lot of money.

Sometimes they don't
wanna give us bad news.

What, they don't want to,

or they've been forced to stay quiet?

Ms. Vallance is in charge
of product testing.

I know your boss preached
ethics over profits.

I know you believe that too.

If Vallance had anything
to do with Brandt's death,

we need to know.

I decided to look into
the Jannex product testing

after your first visit.

It took me four hours to find it.

Failed test results along
with a draft of a letter

that Jeffrey was gonna send to the board

to make a case for Vallance's dismissal.

He was gonna fire him.

Jeffrey wanted a clean
slate before his proposal

for independent drug
testing was announced.

Also, you'll find a funding plan

to pay back the victims for their losses.

Jeffrey, why did you do it?

It shouldn't have happened to you.

I think your boss would've been proud.

Okay, you are officially

my favorite paramedic of all time.

Favorite? Wow!

What about Toby?

Toby? The name doesn't
really ring a bell.

Hey, Oz.

Sandy, come meet-

- Hey.
- The partner of the year!

Okay. It's not that big a deal.

The tickets were free.

What tickets?

Leafs, Penguins tonight.

Front row golds. Do you
mind if I paint my face?

Is that cool?

Um, no.

No, it's- it's not.

It was nice to see you,
and I will see you later.

That's, uh, some partner.

I know, right?

So, how's it going?

Uh, I just, um...

I wanted to tell you that
they are doing construction

outside the ambulance bay.

That's what you wanted to tell me?

Yeah. They made a hole,
and it's just it's deep.

They made a deep hole.

Okay, I will watch out for it.

Thank you.

That's- That's it.

I'm fine. I gotta go.

All right. Okay.

Hey.

- Toby Logan.
- Hey.

Just the guy I'm looking for.

- Right on.
- Michelle asked me to look

into Vallance and Brandt
meeting at the Magnolia.

It turns out it was the
Magnolia Hotel on Frame Street.

When did they meet?

Well, that's where it gets messed up.

Okay, sure, there were
phone records to Brandt,

but that's not who Vallance met there.

Security cameras in
the lobby picked him up

meeting Claire Brandt three
times in the last month

and heading up to a room.

Okay. What's he doing
with Brandt's wife?

Well, exactly.

I mean, maybe she's not the
devoted wife she claimed to be.

Huh.

All I know is one poisoned glass,

and they have control
over the whole company.

- Right.
- And Claire and Vallance

sat on either side of Brandt.

You think one of them
could have killed him?

Maybe both.

All I know is that's
motive and opportunity.

Now, all we need is evidence.

Exactly.

You're getting good at this.

June 2nd,
June 9th, and June 12th.

What were you doing at the Hotel Magnolia

with Thomas Vallance?

My husband bought a number of shares

of the company in my name,

and Thomas asked me to discuss
some tax ramifications.

We know you two are having an affair.

Were you working with him?

Did you help him kill your husband?

No!

I didn't kill my husband.

So, who did?

Vallance?

You know, I don't know.

It was a confusing time.

Okay, Cooper-Weiss was doing well,

but there were storm
clouds on the horizon.

My husband (laughs) was planning something

that didn't make sound business sense.

The independent testing.

And Thomas was convinced
it was too costly

and that it would hurt the company.

And he asked me to help
convince my husband.

So, then what happened?

So he asked me at a hotel.

Strictly business.

But he had charm, and he had
swagger, and he had wine.

And (laughs) it was very good wine.

I was so lonely.

And I was so angry at Jeffrey

for spending so much time at the office.

But you know what the worst
part of this is?

Vallance was just using me.

It's like I was
some piece being moved around

in some game between him and my husband.

And I thought he cared
about me.

How could I have been so blind, huh?

Jeffrey never found out
about it, but I, um...

I promised myself that I would...

That I'd make it up to
him somehow.

I never had the chance.

All the more reason to look
at Vallance for the murder.

Because he had an affair?

Makes him guilty of bad judgment.

Well, he hid the results
of the Jannex trials.

He was at war with Brandt.

He was sleeping with the guy's wife.

How much more do we need?

Proof.

Who brought him in here?

You did.

Look, whoever did this

has a sophisticated knowledge of poisons.

Vallance is a businessman,
not a scientist.

Yeah, but he works at a
company full of scientists.

He has access, motive, and opportunity.

Stay on him.

My relationship with
Claire has no relevance here.

Things like this happen.

You mean like payoffs to your victims?

Didn't have to pay anybody.

The courts were on our side.

What about the money
that you paid Charlie Enzo?

That came from a slush fund.

Look, Enzo was hurting our credibility.

And I did what any other
person in my position would do:

I paid him, and fairly.

Some people would call
that misappropriation.

Did you know that Brandt
planned on firing you?

Oh, now that's absurd.

My position was completely safe.

He wouldn't have fired me.

He couldn't afford to.

Look, you can't hang this on me!

I did not kill Jeffrey Brandt!

Someone is trying to
take this company down,

and Jeffrey's murder had to do with that.

So, who is trying to take
this company down, then?

We found out last week that
someone hacked into our system

and was rooting through our files,

specifically security and R&D.

Why don't you ask them?

So, I pulled some strings.

I got IP routings to the intrusion

into the Cooper-Weiss system.

Now, they all went through
ghost servers in Europe.

I'll give you three guesses as
to whose IP address came up.

Okay?

How about you just tell us?

All right. Rebecca Kalb.

It turns out she has a
background in IT security.

Now, she made intrusions

into all departments in the company,

but she focused on
research and development.

Okay.

Well, I mean, that doesn't
necessarily connect her

to the poisoning.

Well, that's the thing.

One of the documents that she accessed

actually had physical
details of the venue,

including the seating chart to the dinner.

She has some questions to answer.

Hm.

You have one new message.

Card game's off, buddy.

Guess who's seeing the Leafs
tonight smack dab in the golds.

- Nice.
- Yeah, that Elyse

is pretty much everything
I could want in a partner.

No offense. But Toby who?

Okay, bye.

I'll tell you right now, if
you had let me paint my face,

they totally would've won that game.

Oh, please!

At least we got to see some nice goals.

Too bad they were on the wrong net.

Yeah.

Um, are we not going to your place?

Well, my place is kind of undergoing

a bit of a makeover right now, so...

And Toby's not gonna mind?

Toby?

No, I don't think so.

I'm kind of thirsty.

There's drinks.

Toby has drinks.

Just gimme one minute.

- Okay.
- I'll be- I'll be right back.

Yeah. One minute.

Sure.

Hey, Toby.

Listen, don't get mad,

but Elyse and I are using your
place for a couple hours tops

and maybe grabbing a couple
beers and some snacks.

Oz, what the hell happened with Sandy?

She bought you tickets to the game.

What, you bail on her?

Wait, what?

She wanted to
make it right with you,

so she got you tickets to the game.

Okay, this is information

that I could really use yesterday!

Oz,
you got my beer yet?

Okay, I gotta go.

- Wait.
- I gotta go.

Bye.

You lied to us.

Seems you've taken a very active role

in the war against Cooper-Weiss.

You hacked specs to the dinner,

and you helped plan your
husband's a little stunned.

Yes, I orchestrated Harold's
infiltration of the banquet,

but poison was never part of the plan.

Maybe he did it without your knowledge.

He was one of the only people

who had access to the
champagne and Brandt's glass.

He'd never do that.

Never!

You were there inside the restaurant.

No, I was outside in the crowd.

My wife didn't do
anything, and neither did I.

We know she opened the door for you.

We know she was in the restaurant.

What, you think Rebecca did it?

No!

She just got me in.

I got Harold in.

But I never poisoned anyone.

Neither did he.

It's getting very hard
to distinguish the truth

from the lies here.

I'm sure there was a
time you were left alone

with the champagne and
that's when you did it.

No, I never saw the champagne.

Well, she wasn't near the champagne.

It's like I told you:

I came in, I changed
into the waiter's outfit.

I just wanted to say my
piece and get thrown out.

Or get arrested.

It would all be good press.

So you lost sight of your wife?

For a few seconds.

That's all it would take
for her to inject the bottle

with digitoxin and to coat
Brandt's glass with cyanide.

No, she didn't poison them.

You think my wife would do that

knowing that I'd look guilty for it?

Well, that's a good question.

Why would she wanna frame you?

She wouldn't.

All right. If she wouldn't
and you didn't, then who did?

I don't know!

The bottle was on the table.

All I did was open it
and fill the glasses.

Can we talk for a
second?

We have to test the
champagne glasses again.

What are we looking for?

We'll find Vallance's
prints on Brandt's glass.

Vallance pushed his glass away.

Brandt picked it up.

The poison was meant for Vallance.

The wrong man was murdered.

You were right.

There was a partial print in
the base of Brandt's glass

we thought it belonged to the wait staff,

but it was a match to Thomas Vallance.

Question now is, who
would want to kill Vallance?

Okay, so we're back at the beginning.

Maybe not.

Dev, you have access to
Brandt's email account?

Yeah. Why?

Check for anything to
do with Jannex testing?

Whoever tried to kill Vallance

knew he was responsible for the deaths.

Right, right.

Someone Jeffrey Brandt
told, someone loyal to him.

Someone with a background in chemistry.

Yeah. Good call.

Brandt sent the information
to Christa Merker

three weeks ago.

She told us she didn't learn
about it until yesterday.

Well, all the details of
the Jannex trial are there.

Brandt and Christa knew
that Jannex was a killer.

And they both knew that
Vallance hid the results

and paid off Enzo.

I read Christa, and when
she said, "Why'd you do it?"

I thought she was innocent,

but really she was just upset

that the wrong person had been poisoned.

Well, didn't she say that
Vallance was gonna be fired?

Why didn't you just wait for
Brandt to get rid of him?

I don't know, I just saw
Vallance threatening him.

Sounds like
you've got your killer.

Let's go talk to Christa.

You knew the truth about Jannex
for a long time, didn't you?

Christa, we know you
didn't want this to happen.

We know you didn't want to kill Jeffrey.

So what happened?

When Jeffrey found out,
he was horrified.

He didn't tell anyone but me.

Said we had to play it smart.

Vallance is a very powerful man.

We needed a solution

that his lawyers would
never be able to sink.

The way he sunk the Jannex trials.

Those people didn't deserve to die.

We did this to them, our product,

all because Vallance
corrupted the test results.

So your argument with
Jeffrey was about Vallance.

When Vallance found out
that he was gonna be fired,

he threatened to blame the
coverup on Cooper-Weiss

instead of himself.

It would've ruined the company.

So Brandt relented.

It was blackmail.

He had to give in for
the good of the company,

which meant Vallance would stay

and another Jannex could
happen in the future.

So you felt like you had no choice.

One life lost to spare many.

Well, the judge will take
your story into consideration.

I killed my mentor.

What's the judge gonna say about that?

You're gonna have to
come with us, Christa.

I don't think so.

What'd you take?

You take cyanide?

Hey.

You okay?

Yeah.

Look, our job was to
solve a crime, and we did.

That's a win.

Look, Christa thought she
was doing the right thing

for the victims, for her company,

and for the people who'd
be hurt in the future.

And she killed the man.

The law still frowns on that.

The world is a better place
today than it was yesterday.

Is it?

I mean, there's- there's two people dead.

A man responsible for killing

four innocent people walks away.

How do we know he's not
gonna kill more people?

Well, if he does, we'll be there.

So that's what we do? We
wait for the bodies to pile up?

I sent the information

to the Department of Health and Welfare.

It's in their court now.
- What are they gonna do?

They're just gonna sweep
it under the carpet.

I don't like it either.

But there are official channels.

Thomas Vallance and Cooper-Weiss
are no longer our job.

Well, that said, maybe sometimes

these things are better handled
through unofficial channels.

Hey.

Hey.

Do you guys enjoy the game?

Um, not as much as
the Pens fans.

Just treat him well, okay?

You got yourself one hell of a guy.

That's the thing.

Um, I was actually gonna
give you the same speech.

I- I should get back to this.

Bye.

Sandy.

Sorry for coming unannounced.

Oh, no, I, uh...

It's good. I wanted to talk to you, too.

It's about you and Elyse?

You know?

I mean, not that there's anything to know.

Nothing happened.

It almost did, but I, uh...

I couldn't go through with it.

Why not?

'Cause I would've rather
been at the Leafs game

with somebody else.

But I don't get it. I
mean, she's- she's beautiful.

She's smart.

She doesn't have to pretend
to like hockey like I do.

And what could you possibly
not like about her?

Yeah, now that you mention it...

But she's not you.

Can we try this again?
