Okay, well, I think
I found a problem.

The ground wire's come
loose from the harness.

You know-

this is not
how I expected

to spend my
morning off, Mark.

Yeah.

I owe you
a coffee.

Better be
a fancy coffee.

What does
the phone say?

Well, right now-

it doesn't say anything.

Let's see.

Oh, here we go.

Okay, it says we
need a rivet tool.

And we need to use it
to make a new connection

on the mainframe.

Are you sure
about this?

Internet doesn't lie.

What if you don't
have a rivet tool?

Rex.

Can you leave it to the
professionals, please?

You want to tie him up
and throw him in the trunk?

Okay, Jesse.

Hit it.

I think we know

who the real
professionals are.

All right!

High five.

Ah!

Here's the old man.

Jaden.

You know Dad hates
being called old.

I'll speak
for myself, Allen.

And you might stick to
correcting your own mistakes.

Help yourself, Son.

5:00 somewhere, right?

Yeah, should be in the
Devereaux family crest.

Now where's your sister?

I can't abide tardiness.

Should really try
to hit the gym, Dad.

It's great for anxiety.

Ah, says the
fitness guru.

Ten minutes late isn't really
late in the real world.

Melanie, if you were
still in the guest house-

in the job
I gave you-

we wouldn't be having
this conversation.

And I wouldn't
have a life!

All right, what's with
this emergency-

anyway?

I have a
business to run.

Something to do
with these, maybe.

There's one
for each of us.

It's an invitation.

To a surprise
gin tasting.

And I expect you
all to be there.

No excuses.

No exceptions.

Wait.

You're opening up
a new expression?

Don't you think
as head of marketing-

I should have
known about this?

Well, if he didn't tell the
CFO, why would he tell you?

Wait a minute, Dad.

You're making
a new gin?

Oh!

A little behind on
the time, huh Sis?

It happens when you
bail on your whole family.

Quiet!

All of you.

Wouldn't be a surprise
if I told you all about it-

now would it?

And gin is just the excuse
for tomorrow's gathering.

I'm about to make
a big announcement.

Something that will
affect you all.

To Devereaux Gin!

Crying over
the books again!

And I heard things
were looking up.

Uh-

Yeah, the, uh-

the fumes from
the vat get to me.

And the salt air.

Mmm.

Well, let's just hope
you're not sobbing

when you read
my next review.

Hey, Jaden.

Is that Simone Sawyer?

What is she
doing here?

No idea.

Okay, where
the hell is Dad?

I don't know.

Okay look, let's just get
this tasting over with-

and then find out what the
old geezer has to proclaim.

I haven't seen
him in hours.

Typical.

I guess I've got to clean
things up, as per usual.

Thank you.

Uh, hello, everyone!

Uh, good evening and welcome
to Devereaux Distillery.

And on behalf of my
father and my siblings-

And don't you
forget about me!

Oh, and how
can we forget

our master distiller,
Grant McGovern?

As hard as
we may try.

But please, without
further ado-

this gin will
not taste itself.

Now grab another glass.

And follow me.

This way Into
the distilling room.

Okay everyone, keep coming.

Please, please, please
watch your step.

Beautiful.

All right, we're going all
the way in the back here.

What is it?

Is that blood?

Oh my God!

Dad?

Good morning, Jesse.

Mark.

Give me the rundown.

What have we got?

Okay, well
Wilhelm Devereaux-

Thank you.
- You're welcome.

patriarch of
Devereaux distillery-

found dead.

Family run business.

Word is, he was
a bit of a tyrant.

Okay.

And there was some
kind of function?

Yeah. It was a
surprise tasting party

for this new blend
they have coming out.

Most of the guests have been
interviewed and released.

Anyone see anything
of interest?

Mm-mmm.

But all said that
Wilhelm was expected

to make some big
grand announcement.

Regarding?

No one had
any idea.

He's got three
grown children.

They all figured it was supposed
to affect them in some way.

So we're holding them
and the master distiller

to be interviewed.

Okay great, you want
to split them up

after I look
at the scene?

Yeah, yeah.

Sarah's in the
distillation room-

doing preliminaries.

Devereaux Distillery.

What do they
make- whisky?

Gin, exclusively.

They've made an excellent
product for decades.

Traditional, pine forward,
yet zesty and crisp.

You really
know your gin.

I read the back
of the bottle.

Sarah. walk
me through it.

What do you
know so far?

Blunt force trauma to
the back of the head.

And shattered glass
here on the floor.

It appears a full bottle
of gin was the weapon.

Okay, so someone struck
him from behind here.

But judging by the blood
smears on the floor-

he was then
dragged to the vat-

where he was
shoved in head first.

I'll know more

after the autopsy.

I'll be able to confirm
cause and time of death.

Looks like the Devereaux's
aren't the only ones

with a nose
for gin.

What is
Rex up to?

I don't know.

Jesse said that the party
was for a new recipe.

Send word when you've
cleared out of here.

I want to see what
Rex can pick up

when he's got the
scene to himself, okay?

Okay, will do.

Here, Rex.

Let's go.

I have no idea-

what my father was
set to announce, okay?

He said he wanted
it to be a surprise.

Was that unusual behaviour
for your father, Jaden?

No behaviour is
unusual for my father.

He's a self-
made man.

You know, trusted his gut,
and acted accordingly.

And you?

You work here
at the distillery?

I'm the CFO, the
chief financial officer.

I run the business
side of things.

Do you think your
father's announcement

might have been
about the business?

What else?

That's all my father

cared about-

was Devereaux Gin.

And the family,
of course.

Willhelm was supposed
to make an announcement.

Did you know
about this?

I had no idea
what was coming.

I worked for that
man for 30 years.

I gave up trying to
understand him decades ago.

Do you think he might have been
retiring, selling the business?

Bah!

Wilhelm?

Sell?

He'd rather die than
give it to anyone else-

including those
kids of his, eh?

No.

Whatever he was
planning to say

must have had something
to do with that

hipster swill he was going to
befoul the company name with.

So you weren't involved in
developing the new recipe?

Out with the old
guard, I guess.

Yeah.

Always together

in spirit.

To Wilhelm!

Oh.

Here you go.

I had no idea what my dad
was planning to announce.

I didn't even know there was a
new gin until I got the invite.

So you don't work
at the company?

No, not anymore.

I left a couple
months ago.

Started my own business.

A rival gin?

God forbid.

All natural skincare products.

Locally sourced.

Why the big change?

Dad just had me
doing desk work.

It was time
to make my mark.

And I hoped Island Aesthetics
would do just that.

You had no idea what
the announcement was about?

Yeah.

I was hoping Dad was
announcing his retirement.

Handing the
ring to us kids.

Let us make
him proud.

So you're sales
and marketing here?

Yeah, yeah yeah.

Up against the large producers
every day for distribution-

shelf space, foreign markets.

That must
be a battle.

And one I
intend to win.

I would do everything
in my power-

to honour my
father's legacy

and keep this
distillery alive.

I owe it
to him.

Sarah said he was hit
with a full bottle of gin.

I guess it must
have evaporated.

Okay Rex.

You've got the place
to yourself now.

Show me what
we missed.

What is it, pal?

Mark!

What are you guys
doing up there?

Rex picked up a scent
in the distillery room.

The murderer could have
got gin on his shoes

and then came
back out here.

Then climbed up there?

Apparently.

It's somebody's
suit jacket.

Allen, you, uh,
recognise this?

No, no no.

I don't think so.

Oh.

Yeah, that's
kind of strange-

because your, uh-

your invite's
in the pocket.

Dad got me to
fill a couple of bottles

of the new expression

to give to the
press for review.

I spilled some and didn't
want to stink of gin all day.

So you hid your jacket
in some old barrels?

You never
met my father.

He could freak out over
the smallest thing.

Is that what happened?

He was angry
with you?

So you retaliated?

Are you suggesting

that I drowned my father
in a vat of his own gin?

How could I do a
thing like that?

Well, you live
with him.

Work for him.

I mean, he's a
difficult man.

Could be a bit of
a pressure cooker.

I admired my father
more than anyone.

And I can't-

I can't believe what
happened to him.

Inviting Simone Sawyer-

must have been
some kind of curse.

Uh, should I know
that name?

The world-renowned
spirits critic.

One good review
from her-

and it could launch
a gin worldwide.

No amount of advertising
I'd buy could compare.

But you're surprised
that Sawyer was there?

Shocked-

would be the
better word.

Let's just say-

we have history.

She hated my father.

Sorry to interrupt.

Your lawyer, I presume?

One of many-

on a Devereaux retainer.

We'll be leaving now.

Before you
go, Allen, um-

I'm not buying
your jacket story.

If you're
involved in this-

you should
tell us now.

To the contrary, Detective.

This interview is over.

So you think Allen knows
more than he's saying?

I would bet
money on it.

Let's keep digging-

see what this
announcement was about.

Meanwhile-

can you look into a spirits
critic who was at the party?

Yeah.

Yeah, Simone Sawyer.

She left before the
body was discovered.

So before police arrived?

Yeah, she hasn't
been interviewed.

Find her.

Any connection
to Devereaux.

Allen said there
was bad blood.

Sarah has the
path results.

I'll be back.

Time of death was at least
an hour after he was found.

Blunt force trauma
was evident.

But it wasn't the
cause of death.

So the blow to the
head didn't kill him?

No.

No occipital fracture,
no brain bleed.

Looks like Devereaux-

did in fact, drown
in his own gin.

So he was alive when someone
dragged him across the floor

and submerged
his head in a vat.

Cold.

Decisive.

Well, but the attack may
have begun with pure rage.

I mean, from a
profiling perspective-

it is multi-layered.

And I found something
else of interest.

Wilhelm was suffering from
congestive heart failure.

Along with the gin-

there was a significant
build-up of fluid in his lungs.

You're saying

he didn't have
much time to live?

Months.

A year maybe.

I'll contact his physician.

See if Wilhelm was even
aware of his prognosis.

That makes you wonder
who else might have known

and why you
would kill a man

who was on his
way out already.

I saw
the path report.

The deceased didn't
have long to live?

Sarah's checking with
Wilhelm's physician-

to see if he was
aware of the fact.

Oh, maybe that had something
to do with his announcement-

him selling the business.

Passing it on
to his kids.

Retiring.

No one interviewed believes
he'd ever give up the company.

Yeah, well maybe someone
made that decision for him.

Hey, I tracked that
info on Simone Sawyer-

the spirits critic.

Turns out she
has a long history

of giving Devereaux
Gin terrible reviews.

She compared Grant McGovern's

traditional blend-

to paint thinner with hints
of artificial Christmas tree.

Wow.

So the question is-

why would Devereaux even bother
inviting her to his gin tasting?

Yeah, that's going to
be my first question.

Come on, Rex.

Mind me asking how you
ended up at the party?

I have no idea why Devereaux
invited me to the tasting-

or what he was
going to announce.

We weren't exactly close.

After the terrible reviews

you've given his
gin in the past?

In my humble opinion-

Devereaux Distillery has always
been all talk, no gimlet.

Until now, that is.

Well, how's that?

The new expression
is excellent.

Top of its class.

And with my
effusive review-

it will take the international
market by storm.

You seem pretty
sure of that.

What makes the new
gin so special?

Now that is
another mystery.

See, all gin
is just vodka-

with a series of
botanicals added in.

So citrus, herbs, spices.

But it's exactly what you add
that makes a good gin excellent.

So what was added?

That's the million
dollar question.

I can't quite define
the singular note

at the back of
the palate.

It's something unusual-

distinct-

and distinctly unlike anything

that Devereaux's so-called
master distiller

could ever brew up.

You mean Grant McGovern?

You don't think that
he was involved

in developing
the new recipe?

No.

According to rumour,
totally shut out.

So my guess is that Wilhelm
was going to announce

out with the old,
in with the new.

And as we both know,
Grant is as old and as stale

as a martini
with no olive.

Ah.

Got to take this.

Thank you.

Sarah, what
have you got?

Yeah, Devereaux's
physician got back to me.

She said she
told Wilhelm

about his failing heart
only a week ago.

Did she know if he was
planning to tell anyone?

Yeah, his estate lawyer.

Said he was making significant
changes to his will.

Have Jesse track that.

See if Wilhelm was
going to follow through.

Okay, will do.

And check in on
Melanie Devereaux.

She had a falling out
with her father recently.

Might have been worried she
was being cut from his will.

Okay.

Thanks Sarah.

I was just
told this morning

by both the estate
lawyer and the doctor.

So you didn't know about
your father's diagnosis-

or his plans
to change his will?

My father always pledged
to leave the company

to all
three of us.

I just can't believe
he'd renege on that.

But, uh-

you seem to be searching
for something

in your father's office.

Are you concerned he made
notes on his final wishes?

If he did, I would
want them honoured.

Even if you
were cut out?

Melanie, are you sure-

you didn't know
about any of this

before his death?

I told you
I didn't.

But you and your father
had a recent falling out.

Excuse me?

Are you implying that
I would harm my father

before he had a chance
to disinherit me?

Someone killed your father.

And they may have
been motivated

by his sudden intention
to change his will.

All I've ever wanted was for
my father to take me seriously.

Not scoff at every
single one of my ideas.

It was never
about the money!

Never!

So you think that Wilhelm was
going to announce my ouster?

What then?

I killed him?

Well, being pushed aside
after all these years-

could make a man snap,
do something rash.

I would never
stoop so low.

I am a man
of integrity-

through and through.

What is up
with him?

What- does the
dog like coffee?

Yeah, I'm not sure
it's java in your mug.

Rex has got a nose
for the new gin.

Tattletale.

Well, I have to
admire your taste.

The gin is excellent.

I didn't think you were
a fan of the new recipe.

No, that's until
I tasted it.

And now I understand why
Wilhelm was so excited.

He said it
was going to

change everything.

When did he
say all this?

A couple of weeks ago,
when all the secrecy began.

You know, he wouldn't
even tell me what was in it.

It's nothing I'd
ever used before.

Singular.

Some kind of-

unique botanical.

Simone Sawyer
said the same thing.

She's going to give the
new gin a glowing review.

Oh, now it all
makes some sense.

What's that?

Well, I did not
understand

why Wilhelm had invited
her to the tasting.

Even gave her a
bottle in advance!

You wondered why he would
risk another bad review.

But if the gin is
excellent, where's the risk?

You don't understand how
critics like Simone work.

Only bad reviews-

are free.

And good ones?

Yeah, well-

I think my old pal Wilhelm
lowered his standards, and-

got out the grease.

Huh?

So Melanie claims
to have known nothing

about her father's
intention to change his will?

She denies
that she feared

he was going to make
an announcement

she was
being cut out.

Like her brother Allen-

We have no concrete evidence
linking her to the crime.

Maybe Jesse's got
something for us.

Apparently, Simone
Sawyer was on the take.

Yeah, so-

I've been combing
through security footage

of both the estate
and the distillery.

And I found this.

So here's Simone
leaving the Devereaux house-

the day of the
tasting party.

Bottle of the new
gin in one hand.

But what's in
her other hand?

An envelope?

Could be the invite.

Could be
cold, hard cash.

Grant was surprised that Wilhelm
would break his principles-

and cave to
the old payola.

Could be interesting to
find out if and why he did.

Yeah, my thoughts exactly.

Come on, Rex.

Let's go!

503.

Hold.

SJPD.

Simone?

Simone?

Envelope full of
cash still here.

Oh no, Simone!

All right,
she's alive, Rex.

But she needs help.

Go!

Doctors think
Simone was poisoned

and are not sure
when she'll wake up.

The lab is
doing a workup

of the Devereaux Gin
found at the scene.

They're looking
for known toxins.

Okay, well, judging
from the label-

it looks like
the same bottle

Simone left the
Devereaux mansion with.

She'd already sampled
the gin when we met.

She talked about
a unique botanical.

Well, so it couldn't
have been poisoned, then.

Plus, there's this.

Hotel surveillance
footage of the hallway

outside of Simone's room.

Okay, here she is, leaving her
hotel room earlier that day-

to meet up
with me.

Check the time stamp.

Okay, and then-

Oh, someone's
covering their tracks.

To break
into her room

and poison the
open bottle.

Any prints?

Only Simone's, on the bottle
and the envelope of money.

Well, hotel management
is asking all their staff

to check
their keycards.

One may have
been stolen.

What's the common thread?

What motivated both attacks?

Well, everything leads
back to the announcement.

Right?

What Wilhelm
was going to say?

We may have to go
back further than that.

Wilhelm told Grant-

that the new ingredient in
the gin changed everything.

Yeah, but nobody seems
to know what it is.

Could that be what the
announcement was about?

Well, it can't
hurt to find out.

The lab could
isolate it.

But I mean, it
would take weeks.

Well, no offence
to your department.

But there is
a quicker way.

Let's put Rex
to the test.

You actually
found a dog-sized bar?

It's technically
a media console

destined for
the police auction.

But, you know-

I couldn't resist.

Okay, so the goal

is to make
sure that Rex

can distinguish
the different blends.

Well, it looks straightforward.

So each glass contains
a different gin?

Yes.

And only one contains the
new Devereaux expression.

So telling it
from the rest

means that Rex can pick
out the one secret ingredient.

Exactly.

And here,
I'm going to-

I'm going to let you sniff
it right from the bottle.

Got that?

Okay, Rex.

Time to put your
nose to the test.

Did he get it?

Is he-?

Is he right?

100%.

Wow.

Good boy!

Yeah!

Rex can definitely
isolate the secret ingredient.

Now, if you could just
tell us what it is-

that'd be great.

Well I guess we're
going on a hunt!

Call me if you and Jesse
dig up anything new.

Okay.

Bah!

He's not going to
damage anything.

He's a highly-trained
officer of the law.

What is he
looking for?

Well, that is exactly what
we're here to find out.

He's on to something.

He's picked
up the scent

of the secret ingredient.

What's in there?

Equipment, ingredients.

Things that
I barely use-

but that I would
rather not have broken!

What have you
got there?

The secret ingredient is-

some kind of weeds.

But what kind?

I've no idea.

I've never seen this
botanical before in my life.

Appreciate it.

Hey hey hey.

Have you heard
from Mark?

Yeah!

He thinks Rex
may have identified

the secret
ingredient in the gin.

I'm headed to the lab
to prepare to analyse it.

I thought pinpointing the
ingredient took weeks.

Well, having a botanical
in hand and identifying it

is way faster than
trying to identify

one unknown essential oil mixed
with others in a bottle of gin.

Ah, I'll take
your word for it.

Oh, by the way-

I have been doing a deep dive
into the history of artisan gin.

And did you know that
juniper flavoured spirits

date back to
the Middle Ages?

I did not.

Yeah, monks and alchemists-

they experimented with it
for medicinal purposes.

And that eventually
led to the gin craze

of the early
17th century

and led to the
readily available spirit

being nicknamed Mother's Ruin-

which was very popular amongst
the female population.

But now we are in a
brand new gin craze, okay?

And these artisan companies-

they have grown tenfold
over the last ten years.

And the idea is to
build this brand

and sell it to these
big conglomerates.

You know- lock, stock and
two smoking gin barrels.

Doesn't sound like that
was Wilhelm's idea.

He wanted to keep the family
business up and running.

Maybe that's what
got him killed.

I still haven't
found a connection-

between Wilhelm and Simone.

But I'll keep digging.

Okay.

Sounds good.

Just try not to get too
deep in the juniper weeds.

Could get
lost in there.

Its scientific name

is rhododendron groenlandicum.

It's from a plant commonly
known as Labrador tea.

So it grows locally?

All across the island
and the Big Land.

First Nations people discovered
it and used it as tea.

And then it was later adopted
by European colonists.

Okay, now it's somehow become
the secret ingredient

in Devereaux Gin.

But it can also be
toxic if consumed in-

high concentrations.

Toxic enough to leave someone
fighting for their life-?

like Simone Sawyer?

I'll alert the hospital
of the possibility.

And our own lab
is still working

on identifying the toxin
in Simone's bottle of gin.

Meanwhile, let's
see who knows

about Wilhelm's
secret ingredient.

Hold on, someone
tried to kill Simone Sawyer

with some dried up weeds?

Well, that's not confirmed.

But the the new ingredient
in your father's gin

is Labrador tea.

And there's little doubt
the two crimes are connected.

You must have
known about this!

Yeah, you were always
pressuring Dad

to put out a
new artisan gin.

Whoo-ey, marketing gold!

Excuse me for
wanting to follow trends.

You would have
sold out years ago

if Dad let you.

What do you-?

First of all, you need
to stop with all that.

Hey man,
not right now.

Sorry I'm late.

There was a crush
at the gym.

Whoah- excuse me!

Does your dog think I
have treats or something?

I doubt that's what
Rex is looking for.

Do you mind letting him
take a look in your purse?

Yeah.

I mean, he
already is.

Rex.

Island Aesthetics Hand Cream.

Made with Labrador tea.

I'm sorry.

You're saying you found it
in Grant McGovern's lab?

Rex did.

And we've confirmed that
the secret ingredient

in your father's
new gin

is Labrador tea.

I can't believe it.

Was that your
idea, Melanie?

I mean, it seems like a huge
coincidence, otherwise-

since you're using
the botanical, too.

Dad always scoffed
at my ideas.

That's-

That's why I left
the company.

Did you find out that your
father had stolen your idea?

That he was changing his
will and might cut you out?

Like I had nothing to
do with any of this.

You have to
believe me.

I don't care if
dad stole my idea-

or was going to
take credit for it.

I mean, I just can't
believe he finally heard me-

you know, like-

saw what I
was capable of.

That there was more in me
than he ever acknowledged.

Knowing that means
everything to me.

You think she's
telling the truth?

Or she's a
great liar.

Yeah, well we've
met a lot of those.

She had motive.

She had opportunity.

Yeah, but the link between her
and Simone is tenuous at best.

We need something stronger.

Someone linked
to both attacks.

Hey, guys.

Guess what I found on a
Japanese spirits forum?

Jesse's been digging up info
on Devereaux Distillery.

He's been digging hard,
by the looks of it.

Arigato, auto translate.

What did you learn?

Okay, so
there's rumours

that a big Japanese
mega-distillery

is interested in
buying them out.

Hold on, Wilhelm was
thinking of selling?

Everyone we interviewed

was adamant that Wilhelm
would never sell.

But there's no evidence
that he even knew

about the rumoured deal.

So someone other than Wilhelm
was managing the sale.

Any idea who?

Well, I checked
the travel records

of our key suspects.

And guess who flew to Tokyo
three times in the past year?

Jaden Devereaux.

CFO and eldest son.

Guess who was in
the seat beside him?

Simone Sawyer.

Well, maybe that's why

she was going to give the
new gin such a good review.

They're in a
deal together.

Right-
she promotes, he sells.

And they both
make a killing.

And none of it works
with Wilhelm in the way.

Yeah, and with him gone,
why keep Simone around?

Right, as CFO, it's his
job to limit liability-

especially if she's
asking for more money

to keep her silence.

Yeah, but it's all
still conjecture.

We've got nothing we
can charge Jaden with.

Sarah's got something.

Hey!

I just got the
tox screen results

from the gin found in
Simone Sawyer's room.

Labrador tea?

Not even close.

Tetryzoline.

It's almost tasteless.

Lethal if ingested
in sufficient doses.

And it's a key
ingredient in eye drops.

Jaden Devereaux.

But so do millions
of other people.

I mean, he could
just claim

that he was
being framed.

Yeah.

Yeah, there's a story
there I can't quite read.

I mean-

last time, Rex's nose
got us out of a dead end.

Maybe he can again.

There's one scent that
he hasn't tracked down.

None of
us saw it.

But it was in
plain sight.

Okay, ready?

Rock paper scissors.

You always pick rock.

I should know this.

Jesse, bring up that shot of the
hotel surveillance camera

being painted out.
- Yeah!

I don't
get it, Mark.

How is Rex's nose going
to help us with this?

All spray paint is basically
the same chemical makeup, right?

Yeah, the most commonly
used are alkyds and acrylics.

And it's an easy test
to find out which one.

And you've got a sample
of the dried paint?

Of course.

Hold on.

How is any
of this useful?

My money is on Jaden
for both of these crimes.

Now let's sniff out
the truth and prove it.

Okay, buddy, let's
give this a shot.

Go easy.

This stuff is powerful.

Got it?

Go track it.

Excuse me!

If you have any
more questions-

you should contact
our lawyers.

Yeah, Rex and I
just wanted to do

a quick sweep
of the house.

Then you
can get a warrant.

What do you want?

Get back in the
house, Allen.

I thought you might
be interested

in finding your
father's killer.

Of course
we're interested.

But there
is a limit.

You can't just-

It doesn't have
to come to this, okay?

Let me talk
to him.

Al, no.

Is that Jaden's car?

No, it's mine.

You sure about
this alert, Rex?

Black spray paint.

Look, I've never
seen that before.

Is this what
you used

to cover the
surveillance lens

before you poisoned Simone?

No no, I had nothing
to do with Simone.

And what happened with
my father was an accident.

All right?

An accident?

Al.

Listen, Mel.

I can't have you taking
any blame for this.

I'm responsible for
my father's death.

Mind if I
have a drink?

Hearing all this in
the course of an hour-

I think I'll
need it.

Allen told you
what happened?

Because you questioned me.

Look, I need
to set things right.

Melanie had nothing to
do with any of this.

Explain how your father's
death was an accident.

That afternoon-

before going
to the tasting-

I stumbled on my father's
notes for his announcement.

I was here, at
the family home-

in my dad's office.

He talked about the
exceptional new gin-

how he changed his mind
about so many new things.

I'd given my whole life to
my father and the company.

But he was
changing his will.

He was cutting
you out and-

leaving everything to Melanie.

I tried harder than
anyone to please him

while every day
he put me down.

Yeah, you must have
been very angry.

So I
confronted him.

And he said such
awful things.

Why?

What can I do?

Stop bellyaching!

You've whined since
you were a little boy.

Pushing me.

Just pushing me.

Why don't you show
some Devereaux spirit

and do something
for a change?

I just snapped.

I was over
in a second.

I just lost control.

So you admit you
struck him on purpose?

Yes.

But I swear he was alive
and on the floor when I left.

You didn't
call for help?

I know it was wrong,
but I was terrified.

I just hid the
gin-soaked jacket

and went back
to the party.

I never dreamed he'd get up
and stumble into a vat of gin.

And that's what you
assume happened.

How else
did he get there?

Then we all went into the
vat room for the tasting-

and saw
him like that.

I was so shocked.

You have to
believe me.

I didn't mean
for Dad to die.

But it was
all my fault.

Well, I'm not
sure it is, Allen.

Not entirely-

your fault.

What do you
mean, Detective?

How could
it not be?

Well, because we didn't share
all the forensic evidence

with the family.

We know that your
father was dragged

to the vat that
he drowned in.

Dragged?

By who?

So I was convinced
it was Jaden.

But that changed when Melanie
told me you confessed to her

just an hour ago.

What's wrong with that?

It's the truth.

Yeah, but, um-

I mean, I assume
that, uh-

Jaden doesn't know
about any of this.

No, he's not
even home.

So only the person
who really poisoned Simone

would have the
spray paint.

And that same person got the
idea to pin both crimes on you

once you confessed
to killing your father.

Okay, this is insane.

Melanie?

It's ironic.

You had no idea your
father was thrilled

with your suggestion
for the new gin

when you found him unconscious
on the vat room floor.

Did you?

That he was planning to
leave everything to you?

Or that he didn't
have long to live?

You just saw an
opportunity and took it-

thinking he was going
to cut you out.

Did you find out about Jaden
and Simone's deal-making

after the murder?

Used the eyedrops

to point to Jaden-

so we'd start looking at him
for your father's murder, too?

These accusations are insane,
and you can't prove any of it.

Uh- no.

But uh-

Rex can.

You mind if he
smells your hands?

Whoever put

the spray paint
in Allen's car

did it in
the last hour.

Hey!

I'm home!

Ughh!

Melanie!

Ughh!

Stay away from me,
you stupid mutt!

Up on your feet.

You are under
arrest for murder-

and attempted murder.

I never tried
to kill Simone!

She was just supposed
to get sick-

and point the
finger at Jaden!

Oh, I'm sure she'll
appreciate that.

As will your brother.

I was sure
it was Jaden

who left Dad like
that in the vat room.

And that made it okay
to drown your own father?

He tore me down
my whole life.

I thought he was
going to humiliate me

in front of everyone.

Make fun of me for
trying to break away.

Give it up, Melanie.

You're done.

And Rex
is no mutt.

He's my partner.

Let's go pal.

Hey!

That's a great
job, team!

Allen and Melanie
are in custody-

although they're both
lawyered up to the hilt.

And I hear

Simone's recovering.

But she woke up thinking it
was Jaden who poisoned her?

I think that was
Melanie's plan.

After finding out about
the Japanese deal-

she saw a way of pointing
suspicion toward Jaden.

Uh-huh.

Poisoning Simone
with the eye drops

made him look like
the prime suspect

for his father's
murder too.

Then Allen threw a
wrench in it by announcing

that he was
going to confess-

and Melanie put the
spray paint in his trunk-

to frame
him for both.

Oh,
what a family.

You know, I'm just glad that
mine enjoys watching the game

and having a
slice of pizza.

Well, at least Jaden's
had a change of heart.

He's backing out of
the Japanese offer-

keeping Grant on
as master distiller

and renaming the new
expression Wilhelm's Blend.

That's nice.

Well, let's
have a taste.

This one's got
to be to Rex-

Yeah.

who has the best
nose of all of us.

To Rex.

To Rex!

Mmmmm!

Oh boy!

Oh, wow!

That is something!

Mmm.

What do you
think, Rex?
