All language subtitles for Morning Show Mysteries A Murder In Mind (2019)

Katie, I was just coming to find you.

I can't believe I'm here!

About to co-host "Wake Up" with you?

I'm so excited.

You know, it's dad's favourite show,

mostly 'cause you're on it.

You're like the most
famous person he knows.

Says the woman with her own show.

No, no, it's not my show,

it's-it's Hannah Kelso's show.

She's producing it.

I'm just-I'm just playing her.

I'm pretty sure that still counts.

How is your dad?

Well, the doctors say he's doing great.

Keep your fingers crossed.

I will.

I got you a little something.

Oh, you did not have to do that.

Oh... I love it. Thank you.

It's for luck.

There are so many exciting
and important things happening

in your life and I think
we should celebrate them.

Are you okay?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, everything's great.

Couldn't be better.

Why don't you come by the
restaurant after the show?

I know Maurice and Cassandra
would love to see you.

That sounds perfect.

I have research for you
for tomorrow's show.

The etymology of the word
"pancake" totally lead me down

a rabbit hole.

I know, it's just a cooking
segment on kid-friendly

breakfast options but there's
so much information out there

on pancakes alone.

Hi, I'm Lucy.

I heard you used to work at
Blessings, that's so cool.

She was our best server.

Hey, I just did what you do,

make everyone who comes into
the restaurant feel like family.

Billie is my mentor.

She's the one who taught me
that hard work and passion

for what you love make anything possible.

Now, did I hear correctly

that the first episode of your new
show, Kelso's Law,

features a very furry guest star?

It does.

In the TV show I play real life lawyer

and single mom, Hannah Kelso.

One of her most famous clients

was a red Irish setter named Rex.

It was called The Millionaire Pup Case.

Now, I read that the
real Rex passed recently.

Actually, our premier
episode is dedicated to him.

Aww.

I love that.

Now, Kelso's Law is based on a
series of best-selling novels

set right here in Seattle, right?

They're written by local
author Derek Kelso,

and are drawn from his mom
Hannah's real-life law cases.

For the record I've read all
the books and they're wonderful.

Okay, now these cookies
should turn out golden brown.

Woo, yeah.

And they're dog-friendly so, I don't know,

in case a four-legged
guest might wanna stop by,

like animal star, Lucky.

Aww, hey.

He plays the part of Rex on the show.

And this is very talented animal
trainer, Brian Reynolds.

Hi.

Nice to meet you.

Ok, say thank you to the
ladies for the treat.

Thanks Brian.
I'm glad you enjoyed it, Lucky.

We'll be right back.

And we're out.

I don't know how you do that.

I was a nervous wreck.

You were great.

No one would ever know.

Thanks.

Yeah.

Hey, uh, Derek and I are
going out for a drink tonight

if you wanna join.

I'd love to but I promised
my dad I'd stay in.

I've been so busy promoting the show

that we haven't had any
father-daughter time.

Well, if you change your mind
it's trivia night at the pub.

Cool.

Hey, time for us to pop by
the restaurant to say hi

to Cassandra and Maurice.

Okay.

Okay.

See you later.

I cannot do an interview unless
I have been properly touched up.

What I wanna know is how
I can be running late

for something that was
scheduled for tomorrow?

And they didn't even give me a
chance to open up my fan mail.

Right, Colin?

Right. I'm on fan mail duty and
it's becoming a full-time job.

I can see that.

Good luck to you, Colin.

What's going on with you?

You don't look happy.

The interview that we were
supposed to do in studio tomorrow

with the author of Kelso's Law
is now a pre-taped interview

because he's too busy
writing books to come in.

Did they say anything about me?

I think I'm supposed to be
a part of that interview.

No.

But I guess maybe I'll see you there.

I'd offer you a ride but
I'm already taking Lance

and his fan mail in the van.

I need to go in early in order
to prepare myself in the space.

Colin, come on.

See you guys tomorrow.

Bye, Colin.

Oh, it's Derek messaging me
about the interview changing.

Katie Sanders, you're definitely
not telling me something

because no one blushes like
that unless they have something

or someone to blush about.

I can't get anything by you.

Ok, yes, Derek and I...
ugh, he's so wonderful.

He's smart and funny and-

Easy on the eyes?

That, too.

Ever since we first started
working on the TV show together

he's become my best friend.

He's so wonderful.

Okay, that's two wonderfuls.

I think your mentor needs
to take a look at this guy.

Why don't you come to the
interview after the restaurant?

I would love for you to meet him.

You couldn't stop me if you tried.

I want that little gold-digger gone now!

Derek's not doing any writing

because he's so busy spending
his time texting her.

I'm working on it.

She is ruining my son's life.

Do you know that she has
managed to worm her way

into the interview today?

Look, I came here to ask
you to be reasonable.

I told you, I'm taking care
of the gold-digging problem-

Jerry, I want you to make
sure that Katie Sanders

is not in that interview, you got me?

How am I-

Would you get that please?

You pay me to investigate
cases and clean up your messes.

I'm not your butler.

You know where the door is.

You think you can send
nasty letters to my daughter

and get away with it?

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

Mr. Sanders.

That's enough.

You're out of line.

Go home.

I won't let you ruin Katie's happiness.

You or your henchmen.

You stop sending those
letters or you will be sorry.

That's enough.

I thought they knew we were stopping by?

Oh, congratulations!

We wanted to make it a surprise,
but it's hardly a surprise

when someone knocked over two
stock pots because he wanted

to get out of the door first.

I was trying to be a gentleman
and open the door for you.

You were trying to get
to the hugging first.

Look at you all grown up.

Hard to believe the kid
who didn't know a turnip

from a rutabaga is now a big TV star.

Well, who knew memorizing
all those daily specials

would help me with my acting career?

They are the reason I am a
pro at learning my lines.

Let's have some cake.

Oh, Ian called.

He has something important he
wants to talk to you about.

Oh, I'm sorry, we're not open yet.

I'm not here for dinner.

Katie, a word?

You're a good kid and you've
always been nice to me,

so I'm returning the favour.

Right now, as we speak, Hannah is talking

to the other producers of
the show about your contract.

She's trying to get them to fire you

so that she can re-cast the
part and I think you know why.

I just thought you should know.

If it was me I would just quit.

I'm not giving her the
satisfaction of firing me.

I'm sorry.

How did he know you were at the restaurant?

Do you think he's following you?

It's weird.

Ever since I started
spending more time with Derek

it's like I'm under the microscope.

Except with Hannah,
she acts like I don't even exist.

She hates me.

No.

She does.

She's firing me even though she knows

we're still paying off dad's medical bills.

There's no way we can do it
without the TV show money.

Well, it's more than just the money.

I know you love what you do, too.

Being on the show is like
being part of a family.

I miss everyone so much.

And I love the part.

It would be unbearable to
watch somebody else play her.

You know, I know what Jerry Patton said

but why would Hannah want to replace

the lead actor in her show?

It doesn't make sense.

Hannah hates not being in charge of Derek

so she's turning the other
producer's against me.

With me gone she can have
him all to herself again.

Hey, you know what my father used to say?

Even in the darkest of times
there's always a spark of hope

waiting to light the way.

I like that.

Yeah, me too.

Now, I say you go to Hannah,
extend an olive branch.

Explain to her how
important this job is to you

and your family.

Ask her to find some common ground.

Make her see your side.

You got this.

Hey.

So how's it going?

Don't ask.

I have these questions that I prepared

after hours of careful
and exhaustive research,

but when I got here someone
handed me these questions.

It is called "the art of the interview"

for a reason, people.

Yes, it is Triumphe de Autumn.

Now, officially I'm a summer

but I much prefer the autumnal perfumes.

Can I get a brush?

Derek.

Hey.

Hi.

It's like a real studio in here, isn't it?

Derek, it's my friend, Billie.

Billie Blessings.

I'm a huge fan.

And I have heard a lot about you.

We were just talking
about making a reservation

at your restaurant.

Well, Katie has an in so I'm
sure we can work something out.

Ms. Blessings.

Hannah Kelso.

Love your restaurant.

I had some of the most
amazing, scrumptious gnocchi

that I would die to get the recipe for.

Well, that is a secret
known only to my chef.

Hmm.

I think I might actually be
able to get it out of him

if I really tried.

Can we get started?

Derek's time is very limited,
he is currently writing the next

best-seller in our book series.

Mom-

I can brag, I am your mother
and the books are best-sellers.

And, of course, the best part of all

is that they're all about me.

The editing...
I know, but in the editing I want...

I understand, Philip. Thank you.

And you, handsome creature.

I see you got my pre-prepared questions?

You see, I don't go to court
and I don't do any interviews

unless I already know
the answers beforehand.

Well, I would... agree.

Well, yes.

Sorry to storm your place like that.

You're Blessing's kid, right?

I was on the police force
the same time as your dad

back in the day.

Oh.

She's a nice kid but she should have known

that Derek was off-limits.

Mama bear, she can be extremely protective.

Now, Hannah,

is it strange seeing
somebody playing yourself?

Saying the things that you said

and recreating situations
that you lived through?

Well, I think...
I think the television show

captures the broad strokes of my
life but as for the character,

at least how she is on the show,

well, I like to think I'm a
little more nuanced than that.

Well said.

Well, thank you so much for
taking time out of your busy day

and speaking with us.

Lance, it was an absolute pleasure.

And that is a wrap.

I brought over some coffee and
sandwiches if anyone's hungry.

Ah.

Hannah?

Hannah, may I speak with you?

I don't have time to chat right now,

I'm late for a meeting with the mayor.

I totally understand but I
really need to talk to you.

Um, maybe sometime later today or tonight?

Two minutes.

I would like to speak with you in private.

About what?

I just don't understand
what I've done to upset you,

but I think it's unfair.

I need... my dad and I, we need-

I don't know what you want but I am late.

What's going on?

Well, I don't know what
she's talking about.

I know you don't like me,

but I want to be treated with respect.

Then you need to respect me.

And my son.

He's working,
so stop getting in our way or else I...

I don't know what I'll do.

Mom.

You can't speak to Katie that way.

Don't.

Mom!

You just killed any chance
you had of changing her mind.

Phil's almost wrapped up in there.

I've got a key,
I'll lock up when he's done.

I tried to make her more
maternal in the books

but in real life she's just...
not that way.

Yeah.

Sometimes the people we
love don't always behave

the way we wish they would.

I really thought Katie
could be part of my life.

I didn't know falling
in love wasn't allowed.

And what about that guy, Jerry?

Does he just work for your mom, or-

Business only.

When she takes on a case,
he does all the leg work,

digs up old records, interviews witnesses.

Stuff like that.

Hmm.

It was really nice to meet you, Billie.

Nice to meet you, too.

I just wanted to let you know
that the first seating has begun

and you didn't eat any lunch.

Yeah, I got so busy I guess I forgot.

Well, that's why I'm here,
so you don't waste away to nothing.

How about you come eat this in the kitchen?

Aunt Cassandra, I feel so bad for Katie.

I told her to confront Hanna
hand it blew up in her face.

Do you think it would be a mistake for me

to go over to Hannah Kelso's
house and try to explain?

Don't you mean make things worse?

Aunt Cassandra-

No. Just my two cents.

Nothing good ever came from meddling.

Unless we're talking about you and Ian.

Now what is going on with you two?

If you don't mind me asking.

I don't know.

I guess we're waiting.

I'm waiting for him, he's waiting for me.

Well, you can consider the waiting over

'cause he's in the dining room.

This has Aunt Cassandra
written all over it.

Me?

Yes, you.

Ah-ah.

Hey!

Hey!

When Aunt Cassandra heard
I hadn't eaten yet she...

Yeah.

She got you, too.

So I didn't just stop by
for the delicious meal.

I need to ask you something.

I'm hosting a dessert
slumber party next weekend.

I mean, for Emma and her four friends.

It's what she wanted for her 10th birthday.

Wait-wait a minute.

Ian Jackson is hosting
a dessert slumber party

for five little girls?

I don't believe it.

I am.

And what I'm trying to ask you is...

I need your expertise help
with the dessert part.

Well, desserts are my speciality.

That's exactly what Emma said.

Okay, so what're we talking about?

Um, cupcakes?

Cake pops?

A hot fudge sundae bar?

Maybe a princess cake?

It's like you read my mind.

Now, uh, what exactly is a cake pop?

Whoo! Explaining cake pops to you,

that would be the highlight of my day.

Must have been a rough day then.

Yeah, I gave what I thought
was good advice to a friend

and it completely backfired.

Well, look.

I don't know what the advice
was but one of the things

I love about you is how
much you care about people.

Well, I better get going.

Right.

It's a school night for me.

Okay.

And I'm going to take care of my mistake.

Thanks.

Okay.

Goodnight.

Sure.

Ms. Kelso? Are you there?

Hello? Anybody here?

Hannah?

Jerry!

You sure you didn't recognize him?

Nope, it was too dark.

Now just tell me that the person
you gave that bad advice to

wasn't Jerry Patton and
I'll feel a lot better.

To answer your question

I did not give Jerry Patton any advice.

Good.

I did give advice to
someone about the person

living in this house.

As in Hannah Kelso?

Just got an update.

They're estimating the time of
death between 7:00 and 8:30 pm.

That's when Billie found him.

Any idea on the cause of death?

Nothing firm until they do a post-mortem

but there's a contusion
on the back of the head

and he was definitely in
the water at some point.

It washed away the blood.

What about the broken
security lights in the yard?

Not broken, smashed.

Okay.

Let's canvas the place,

see if we can find anything
else out of the ordinary.

We'll treat it as a homicide
until we're told otherwise.

Any eyes on the owner of the house?

Nothing yet, we're trying to
get her on her cell phone now.

Let's have somebody notify the next of kin.

I'm on it.

I'm gonna walk Billie back to the car.

Be right back.

Look, as much as I love
spending time with you,

I'd rather it not be
atone of my crime scenes.

The last time you got tangled up
in a murder I almost lost you.

I can't have that because-

Because you're a policeman and
your job is to protect people.

Exactly.

That, and you're the only one I know

that can do the flowery cupcake thing.

What's going on?

Where's my mom?

Is she Alright? What-

We haven't been able to
locate your mother yet.

We were just driving back
and saw all the lights.

Did someone break in?

This is my house!

What's happening?

Derek!

Mom!

What's going on?

Ms. Kelso, can I speak with you inside?

Of course.

When was the last time you saw Jerry?

Here, in the house.

We were working.

Um, I wanted to go for a
jog before it got too late

so he said he'd go for a walk on the beach

and then we'd finish up when I got back.

Is that normal?

What?

Working so late.

Yes.

I'm wrapping up a case.

I need to get some paperwork
filed for tomorrow.

Go on.

Before I left he had borrowed a hoodie.

He was already outside.

I told him to be careful
because some teenagers...

that's what I suspect, anyway,

smashed all of my security
lights earlier this week.

Ms. Kelso?

The hoodie.

It was dark.

I mean, if anybody saw him
they would think it was me.

Hi.

Hi.

I just came by to see how
things went with Ian last night.

Well, he asked for my help.

Oh, really?

He wants my expertise for
Emma's 10th birthday party.

Mmm.

Well, I'm sure I can offer up Maurice,

he's great with dessert parties.

Wait, how do you know
it was a dessert party?

Oh, would you look at the time?

I'm late for the farmer's market.

They're getting in a shipment
of organic strawberries

that has the restaurant's
name written all over it.

Aunt Cassandra?

Didn't you tell me that nothing
good comes from meddling?

Oh, honey.

I'm not the one who's meddling.

I need to talk to you.

Of course.

Hey, Katie?

We need you in makeup.

Right after the show we'll talk.

I gotta go home and walk Feathers.

Hm-mmm.

How's Billie holding up after last night?

Maybe we can call that new brunch dish

"French Toast a la Billie".

You know, help take her mind
off finding the you know what.

Hey, it's the thought that counts.

Hello?

May I help you?

I saw your door was open.

Ah, Maurice.

And I thought to myself why not pop in

and make a reservation for this evening?

Well, we are fully booked tonight

but I might be able to work
a little magic for you.

This would be for two?

Yes, please.

I've read all the rave reviews

and I can't believe I
haven't made it in yet.

Will the famous Billie
Blessings be in attendance?

She usually is.

Oh, looks like I can fit you and your uh...

Business client.

I'm afraid you're looking
at a confirmed bachelor.

Well, we will see you at 8:00pm sharp then.

And what name should I put these under?

Charlie would be great.

And you are?

Cassandra.

Enchanted.

Until this evening.

Forgot my keys.

Hmm-mm.

Who was that?

That was a gentleman.

Whew.

Being a single mother really
changes your priorities.

You find yourself doing whatever
it takes to protect your child.

And then they grow up to
be best-selling authors

like my son.

Hmm.

Derek Kelso isn't just a famous novelist.

He's also been voted one
of the Pacific Northwest's

most eligible bachelors.

So, are the rumours true, Katie?

Are the two of you dating?

Um, we're just good friends.

Well, you heard it here first, ladies.

Derek Kelso is still available.

And when we come back,
Tiffany will show us some ballet

inspired fashions from some of
our favourite local designers.

Hey, I thought you were...

What was that about?

I don't know.

But I'm gonna find out.

Lucy, go find out what that was all about.

Okay.

I'll be back before my segment, I promise.

No weapon, no trace evidence
on the hoodie he was wearing.

No defensive wounds.

Maybe he knew the killer.

Possibly, but either way
he didn't see it coming.

We need to run down Hannah Kelso's alibi.

I spoke to one of the
neighbours last night.

She confirms that she jogs
three or four times a week,

always in the evening after it cools down.

We gotta find out if someone
saw her running last night.

First let's go inside and see
what else we can get out of her.

Woah.

I've been knocking but there's no answer.

Katie, it's Billie.

Are you okay?

Did something happen with you and Derek?

You have to believe me.

I swear I didn't kill anyone.

I went over to the house
to apologize to Hannah.

Okay.

I knocked, but all the lights
were off so I started to leave,

but then I noticed the back gate was open.

What time was this?

Um... a little before 8:30.

I saw someone running away
so I yelled at them to stop

but then I saw the body.

It was so awful.

He was just lying there.

So I didn't think, I just took off.

And you ran right past me.

You must have been in shock.

I know you're scared but you
need to talk to the police.

If you don't tell them that you were there

at the scene of the crime and they find out

some other way it won't look good.

Will you go with me?

Of course.

Right after my cooking
segment I'll drive you.

Thank you for believing me.

And for being my friend.

I'm just so scared.

What if the police think I'm the killer?

I'm still in shock.

I just can't believe he's gone.

Ms. Kelso, can you think of
anyone that would want you

or Mr. Patton dead?

Well, I've won my fair share of
cases so obviously there's some

very unhappy people on the other
side of the courtroom but...

no one that I...

Ms. Kelso?

Mmm-mm.

No one.

It's important for you
to tell us what you know.

I'm really not sure.

Well, sometimes the smallest detail,

something you don't think
has any bearing on the case,

is what solves it.

Katie's father, Donald Sanders,

he came by here yesterday extremely upset.

I- I just brushed it aside.

What was he upset about?

He's accusing me of writing some
very nasty letters to Katie,

which of course I did not do.

But he did say if they didn't
stop I'd be very sorry.

Do you recognize this?

No.

Should I?

What're you doing?

Sorry, I just came by to grab
a dog leash I left yesterday

and I thought I might say hello to Katie,

but she wasn't there.

I don't think you should
be in her dressing room

without her there.

Yeah, I guess not.

Unbelievable what happened
to Jerry Patton, right?

Do the police have any
ideas who killed him?

Or why?

I have no idea,
I'm just a member of the public like you.

Derek said something about Jerry
Patton having lots of enemies

from the old case she worked on.

I wondered if the police
know about that stuff.

Well, I'm sure they're
working on that as we speak.

So, did you find it?

Find what?

The dog leash you were looking for.

Yeah, I've got it right here.

Tell Katie I stopped by.

Yes?

Mr. Sanders, I'm Detective Jackson,

this is my partner, Detective Hawk.

Can we speak with you about
a threat you allegedly

made to Hannah Kelso?

Oh, listen, she was sending
my daughter cruel letters

and I told her to stop.

End of story.

You didn't threaten her?

It wasn't a threat.

Nobody hurts my daughter
and gets away with it.

Well, the content of those
letters must have been

pretty upsetting for you
to go to Hannah Kelso

to speak about them.

I- I don't know what was in them.

Katie never showed them to me.

What makes you so sure that
they came from Ms. Kelso

and not someone else, say, Jerry Patton?

Mr. Sanders, do you recognize this pin?

No.

No, I don't.

Can you tell us where you were
last night between 7:00 and 8:30pm?

I was right here, at home,
with my daughter, Katie.

And I have a home care
nurse that came by, as well.

Is Katie here?

May we speak with her?

No, she's guest hosting
a television program.

I don't know when she'll be home.

You'll uh, you'll have to
come back another time.

Thank you for your time.

This is my card.

If you think of anything, reach out.

The police were just here,
they know about the letters,

and if they're looking in to Jerry Patton

who knows what they'll find.

So be very careful what you say.

Okay, yeah, thanks for that.

Donald Sanders' doctor confirmed
that they have a home care nurse

who comes to the house three nights a week

and she was definitely there last night

only she didn't arrive until 8:00pm.

Which means Donald Sanders
had time to kill Jerry Patton

and be back before the nurse arrived.

What about Katie Sanders?

She has no alibi.

The nurse said Katie didn't
get home until after 9:00.

It's like she knows what
we're doing before we do.

I just wish she'd stick to the baking

and leave the murders to me.

Speaking of baking she
signed a cookbook for my wife

and now I'm the best husband in the world.

Hey, I was just headed out.

I wish I could stay and talk but-

Hey, was Katie Sanders still in the studio?

Funny you should say that,
I was just gonna swing by her house.

We had made plans and I
think she forgot about them.

I was wondering,
have you ever seen this before?

Recognize it?

It's Katie's.

I gave it to her.

I was actually gonna go
try to find her because...

there's something that she
needed to tell you guys.

Katie was the mystery
person that I saw running

from Hannah Kelso's house last night.

I want an APB on Katie Sanders car now.

Sautéed?

Nah.

Everyone does that.

Frozen?

Too country fair.

Flambéed.

That shows promise.

No explosions in the kitchen
for at least six months.

Our pocketbook can't take it and
neither can my lovely flowers.

What's the occasion?

Keep your oven mitts off.

They're mine.

Did I forget your birthday again?

They're from a restaurant
patron to say thank you

for helping him get a
reservation for tonight.

The guy from earlier?

What's his name?

Charlie.

Hmm.

Oh yeah, he's the one.

A real smooth operator.

I don't like him.

Well, he's a customer,

so you're only allowed to say nice things.

That's why I stay in the kitchen.

Are those bananas making an
appearance on tonight's menu?

Yep, only they're special bananas.

You can eat the peel.

No. We are fully booked.

No experiments.

Where's the fun in that?

Hey guys, sorry I'm late.

You can eat the peels.

I just dropped Katie

right in the middle of
a murder investigation.

I still feel like a terrible friend.

You are anything but.

I just don't know why she decided to run.

It's the worst thing an
innocent person can do.

Maybe I'm off base here

but uh, suppose she had something to hide?

You can't honestly think
that Katie is the murderer.

She said that um,
Hannah Kelso hated her because of Derek.

Maybe Hannah had Jerry find
something to blackmail Katie

into leaving the show.

And how do you know all about Jerry Patton?

Everybody knew about the guy.

He was a corrupt cop with
a terrible reputation.

Blackmail, extortion...
strong-arming with threats?

That was a Patton speciality.

Not exactly your protect
and serve type, huh?

One dirty cop.

Your dad was one of the good ones.

The best.

Well, I have some hens to roast.

Be careful, because whatever
business Jerry Patton is up to

I can tell you it's bad news.

Katie, where are you?

Jerry Patton's house.

325 Olive.

I was attacked.

Help me.

Okay, okay, I'll be right there.

Hello?

Don't go inside until we get there.

Billie's heading over
to Jerry Patton's house.

Katie Sanders is there.

Amazing.

We just got an anonymous
tip about a break-in

at Jerry Patton's house.

Katie!

Everything's gonna be okay.

Police!

She went in.

Billie!

Downstairs!

It's okay.

Call the paramedics.

Miss Sanders, let's get you upstairs.

We'll need to speak with
you down at the station.

Hey, what're you doing here?

Just making sure a friend is okay.

Hmm.

I thought you were on the day shift?

Well, after I clock out I
like to bring the fellas

on late-night some doughnuts.

Put smiles on their faces.

Well...

Well, a doughnut for your thoughts.

Ooh.

Old fashioned.

Mmmhmm.

Mmm.

Joey, you've been a
policeman for a long time.

Mmmhmm.

Have you ever had a suspect who
your gut told you was innocent?

Even though all the evidence
was pointed in their direction?

Well, the evidence doesn't lie.

But sometimes it doesn't
tell the whole story.

Listen, you've got a good gut.

I would listen to it.

Did you know Jerry Patton
when he was on the force?

Yeah, everyone thought he was
an okay guy until he got booted

on that extortion charge.

Do the police think that Katie
Sanders was being blackmailed?

You know, I can't tell you that.

Well, that's the word
around the station, yeah.

Do they know why?

I don't think so.

But I imagine it's pretty bad,
whatever it is that she did,

if Jerry Patton wanted
to blackmail her for it.

Hmm.

Well, I...

Ian.

Hey, Ian.

Um...

Well, thank you very much.

I'll be sure to tell Aunt
Cassandra that you said hello.

Yeah, tell her she's been on my mind.

Ian.

Hawk says you were still here.

We're keeping Katie in custody.

There's nothing more for
you to do for her tonight.

Ian, how could she be a suspect
if somebody tried to kill her?

It was a superficial wound,

and we only have her
word about what happened.

You saw the lock on the closet door,

she could have easily
locked herself in there,

making it look like she was the
victim instead of the killer.

Wait, you think she did this to herself?

I appreciate your input but
you have to let me do my job.

Even if you don't agree with my methods.

Oh, right on time.

Those flowers are so
beautiful, you shouldn't have.

I'm glad you're enjoying them.

My client has a cold so
I'm afraid it's just me.

Well, come on in, we'll still feed you.

Right this way.

How's this?

Oh, lovely, thank you.

There you go.

Would you care to join
me for a glass of wine?

That's very kind of you but
this place won't run itself.

Try the Cornish game
hen with the gremolata.

It is divine tonight.

And if you stick around until closing

I might join you for dessert.

I know Katie was at Jerry Patton's house

and there was an empty
file with her name on it.

Which we're dealing with.

Do you know what I'm thinking?

You know what I'm thinking?

I'm thinking you're too close to this.

I'm thinking you're not seeing clearly

because the suspect is
someone you care about.

But Katie had the means and a motive,

and I can't discount that just
because she's your friend.

You have to accept that Katie
Sanders might be our killer.

You know what you don't
have to worry about, though?

The dessert party.

I've got it covered.

Yeah, I wasn't worried
about the dessert party-

There's gonna be cupcakes
and cake pops galore.

I don't doubt it.

Think about what I said?

Maybe let this one go?

You know what?

Before I forget,
Maurice and I are working on some cupcakes

that Emma is going to love.

But we're gonna need some flavour approval

from the birthday girl, so...

How about tomorrow night?

Great.

Great.

Oh, and Ian, um...
thank you so much for being there today.

That's my job.

I promise I'll let you know

if there's any movement in the case.

Maybe then you won't have to do
any investigating on your own?

I knew I was asking too much already.

Is that Derek Kelso?

Derek?

You arrested Katie?

Her dad just called me.

But you got the wrong person.

Katie didn't kill Jerry Patton.

I did.

Hi, Aunt Cassandra.

Billie, this is Charlie.

It is so nice to meet you,
my meal was absolutely wonderful.

Thank you.

A lot of love goes into every meal we make.

To be honest,
I don't know how you find the time

to do all that you do.

Run a restaurant, write cookbooks,

and consult with the police.

I don't consult with the police.

I beg to differ.

From what I've been reading

you're quite the amateur detective.

I tell you, that Jerry Patton fellow

seems like he wasn't a very nice man.

I wouldn't know, I barely knew the man.

You know, I'm a true crime aficionado

and I would love to just sit down with you

and pick your brain on all
the work you've been doing.

Talk shop, as they say.

Uh...

Oh, I'm sorry if I'm speaking out of turn.

Forget what I said.

I just know from experience
that the truth doesn't always

see the light of day.

Sometimes it needs a fresh set of eyes.

Right, well, it's been a long day for me

and these eyes need to go to
bed so it was nice meeting you

and I'm glad you enjoyed your meal.

Thank you.

You see the charmer
Cassandra is sitting with?

Yep, just met him.

I felt like I was being interrogated

by an overzealous crime fan.

I don't care what he's a fan of,

he's just being way too
chummy with Cassandra.

You look like you could use
one of my patented omelettes.

It smells delicious.

The secret is good butter and
an extra helping of chives.

Is there something else on your mind?

Derek confessed but it looks
bad for Katie, Maurice.

Running from the crime scene,

breaking into Jerry Patton's house.

And I can tell there's still something

she's holding back.

You think she's lying?

I saw Joey down at the station.

He said the police think
Katie's being blackmailed.

And there was an empty
folder at Jerry's house

with Katie's name on it.

So if he's blackmailing Katie...

Then why not other people, too?

What does Ian think?

Mmm.

I see.

You know,
I know it goes against all reason,

but my heart tells me
Katie is not a killer.

I think the key to solving
Jerry Patton's murder

is in one of his old case files.

I spoke to your friend, Brian.

He says you were at the bar
that night the whole evening.

He didn't realize I had gone.

I was back before the trivia started.

Why don't you walk me through what happened

the night Jerry Patton died?

Katie came by the bar.

She wanted to talk.

She was convinced my mom
was about to have her fired.

Was she right?

Well, Katie already thought
my mom had been sending

her nasty letters trying to
get her to quit the show.

But what I told her then
and again last night

was that my mom needed
the TV show to do well.

There's no way she'd fire her lead actress

or try to get her to quit.

So if not your mom,
who was threatening Katie?

It was pretty clear to me Jerry
was the one behind everything.

And Katie seemed to agree.

Go on.

He was the king of
digging up dirt on people.

It's what my mom paid him to do.

He's always going on
about his old case files.

Called them his insurance.

Okay.

Go back to that night.

I decided I needed to talk to my mom.

Jerry was her bulldog.

If he was harassing Katie my mom
needed to put him on a leash.

So you left the bar and
drove to your mother's house?

When I got there she was out,
but the side gate was opened

and that wasn't normal,
so I went around back.

And saw what?

Jerry Patton standing by the water.

I asked him why he was
sending Katie the letters.

He said it was none of my business.

We started arguing.

He came after me.

I just saw red.

I lost it.

I-

And how did you kill him?

I... I pushed him and he fell backward.

I think maybe he hit his
head on a rock or something

because he didn't get up.

And then I ran.

Maybe we could spice this up
with a little playful music.

Totally. That is just what I was thinking.

You know what? You're good at this.

If you ever wanted to become a producer

you have an eye for it.

Thanks.

Really.

Oh hey, you got a sec?

I need your research skills.

Ah, hey, hey, hey.

What about me?

Research is my middle name.

I need all the information you can get me

on Jerry Patton's old cases.

I think someone from his past
might be the real murderer.

I'll start digging.

Did you want all the case she
worked with Hannah on, too?

I need everything you
can get your hands on.

I can check the video
archives, see what I can find.

Great.

Thanks, guys.

Alright, let's get started.

So you didn't see anyone that
night at Hannah Kelso's house?

No.

I- well-I thought I saw
someone down the shoreline

but I can't say for sure.

It could have just been
a trick of the light.

Look, I can't help you if you're
not gonna be honest with me.

Maybe what really happened is
that Jerry Patton was alive

when you got to Hannah's and
you were mad at him so you-

No.

He was dead when I got there, I swear it.

Tell me about the threatening letters.

They were just someone's
idea of a bad joke.

Your dad didn't seem to
think they were a bad joke.

He accused Hannah Kelso of sending them.

He was just protecting me.

Who do you think sent them?

Okay, let's talk about yesterday
at Jerry Patton's house.

Did you see who hit you?

Katie, this is not looking good for you.

You could go to jail.

Thank you for coming over,
I-I didn't know who else to call.

Ian Jackson is a good detective
and a close friend of mine.

She is in good hands.

With someone who thinks she's a killer?

You know, the police are
just trying to do their job

and it doesn't seem like you and Katie

are making that easy for them.

When the police came here

they-they showed me a pin
that I had seen Katie wearing

on the morning show and that's when I knew

that they thought she was the killer.

And then they asked about the
nasty letters she had received.

The blackmail letters.

Do you know what the letters
were accusing her of?

No.

No, she never told me.

A father should always be there
to take care of his child,

no matter what the consequences,

and I would do anything to
keep my little girl safe.

Please, you have to help her.

What're you doing?

Oh, I was just uh...
admiring your walking stick.

It's beautiful.

Thanks, it was a-it was a gift from Katie.

Okay well, bye.

Bye now.

What do you think of
Derek Kelso's confession?

Seems pretty convenient that he shows up

right after we bring Katie in.

Medical examiner's report said
it wasn't a blow to the head

that killed our victim.

He was smothered after being knocked out.

Which means Derek Kelso was lying.

Why lie about killing
someone if you're innocent?

To cover for someone else?

Or...

Maybe he has a partner.

I thought you'd want to
know someone just called in

a shooting at Hannah Kelso's house.

Let's go.

I don't know where he came from, but I-

I turned around and he was there and I-

I tried to run but he was just so fast,

he caught me and I tried to fight him off

but he had a gun and-and
then it just went off.

Why don't you help Ms. Kelso change?

Make sure you bag her clothes
and we'll take her statement.

No, no, no, no, no.

You don't understand.

I knew him.

It was Brian Reynolds.

He's the dog trainer from my show.

He came here to finish off what he started.

Don't you see?

He missed me the first
time and murdered Jerry.

And now he was going to kill me.

Okay.

Hi.

Hi.

Per your request,
six red velvet flower cupcakes.

Oh, yes.

Maurice has outdone himself.

These are just beautiful.

So are yours.

Yeah, I still have to get flavour approval

from the birthday girl, vanilla, chocolate,

or red velvet.

Sounds like you're on dessert overload.

No, baking is my happy place.

As long as you follow the recipe
everything turns out perfectly.

Unlike real life.

Yeah.

Listen, the police are gonna clear Katie.

We both know Ian Jackson
is very good at his job.

He's gonna find the real killer
which means you can just relax,

take a deep breath.

Tonight is about Emma, and you and Ian,

so you can just take all
those investigative thoughts

and put them on the back
burner and let the sweet smell

of sugar and vanilla and
butter just fill your heart.

You're right.

Why am I surprised?

You're always right.

Yes, I am.

So enjoy your evening with Ian and Emma.

That man has feelings for you,

it's written all over his face

any time he looks in your direction.

And you've got feelings for him, too.

Aunt Cassandra-

I can see that.

So listen to me.

Don't forget to embrace the
good stuff while you can,

because you'll regret it if you don't.

Take it from somebody who's been there.

Bye, Aunt Cassandra.

Bye, baby.

Okay.

Billie's here!

With tester cupcakes.

Thanks, Billie.

Let's take a walk.

I have some information on the case.

I'll let Emma know that
we'll be right out front.

It hasn't been reported to the
public yet but I wanted you

to know that Brian Reynolds
was killed this afternoon.

What?!

He broke into Hannah Kelso's house.

He had a gun and he attacked
her and the gun went off.

He was dead at the scene.

Wait, why?

What was his motive?

That I don't know yet.

But it looks like he's responsible

for Jerry Patton's death, too.

Hawk's re-interviewing
the witness from the bar.

He's gonna focus on Brian.

We're hoping to find a window
that he was unaccounted for.

So until then Katie is still a suspect?

I'm afraid so.

Though what we have on her
is purely circumstantial.

So we had to let her go.

And Derek Kelso may have confessed

but he had the cause of death wrong.

Jerry Patton was hit on the head

but his cause of death was suffocation.

So until we clear that
up I have no other option

but to hold him in custody.

Well, you should keep
Donald Sanders on the list

because I was at his house this afternoon

and I saw his walking stick
had a big crack in it.

Maybe that's the weapon that
was used to hit Jerry Patton.

I'll send Hawk over there
to collect it for comparison

to Jerry's head wound.

If it's a match it would go a long way

to place him at the scene.

Ian, everywhere I turn I just keep seeing

more and more evidence
against Katie and her dad.

Do you know anything about
these blackmail letters

she was getting?

You know about those?

I cannot reveal my sources.

Does your source happen to
have a soft spot for doughnuts?

Okay, hear me out.

If Jerry was sending
blackmail letters to Katie,

why not to other people, too?

Ok, I'll buy it. Go on.

It always bothered me that
Jerry's office was trashed.

Maybe someone was looking
for old case files.

Maybe that's where we find our motive.

Oh, we?

Well, that's enough case talk for tonight.

We have a dessert party to plan.

We need to focus on cupcakes.

The red velvet was the winner in my book.

Yeah, Emma liked that one, too?

Good.

Maybe red velvet and vanilla?

Hmm.

Done.

A little birdie told us-

It was Aunt Cassandra.

That you might have a chocolate
fountain you could lend us?

Yeah, sure.

Cupcakes and a chocolate fountain?

My friends are gonna love it.

Mmmhmm.

Well, how could they not?

Emma, I am officially jealous
of your dessert party.

You're invited.

Didn't dad tell you?

Would you like to chaperone with me?

Please say yes.

Are you kidding?

I would love that.

Great.

It's me.

I need your help.

Come on in.

I'm so sorry I dragged you into this mess.

Look, you didn't drag me into anything,

but you have to start telling me the truth.

Why did you go to Jerry Patton's house?

I know he was blackmailing you.

My dad called me at the studio,
said the police knew everything.

I panicked.

I went to Jerry's house

to try and find the evidence he had on me.

It was so dumb.

I should have listened to you
and gone straight to the police.

Tell me about this file
with your name on it.

The one I saw at Jerry
Patton's house on the floor.

When I was in college some friends and I

protested the logging
of an old growth forest.

Things got out of hand and I was arrested

for disturbing the peace
and resisting arrest.

I didn't think that it was
serious enough to disclose it

when I signed the contract for Kelso's Law.

So you think that by not
disclosing it you were putting

yourself in breach of the
morals clause of the contract?

That's right.

Katie, the file was empty.

It was?

Then whoever hit me has the evidence now.

Who do you think might have hit you?

You know, I ran into Brian
outside your dressing room

in the hallway and he was acting
very, very strangely.

I think he likes me.

Katie, Brian's dead.

What?!

He tried to attack Hannah and
she shot him in self-defence.

I'm so sorry.

But do you think that Brian could have been

the one who hit you?

I mean, what was his
involvement in all this?

I don't know.

Okay, what about Derek?

Where was he when this was going on?

After I got off the phone
with my dad I called Derek

and told him I was going
to Jerry's and why.

So he knew where you were going?

He could have been the one who hit you.

No, he would never.

At... at least... I don't think he would.

What-what... did something happen

that would make you wonder about him?

Derek knew why I was being blackmailed.

The night of the murder

I think I saw Derek
running away from the body.

What if Derek killed
Jerry and stole the file

because he was trying to protect me?

And what if Brian was helping him?

Cassandra Shaw?

Yes?

Thank you.

From your admirer, smooth Charlie?

That's not his name and you know it.

What'd I say?

Back to work.

So, how'd it go with Billie last night?

Planning Emma's birthday party.

Come on, you gotta take that
lady out on a proper date.

Tonight I'm taking her to dinner.

Nice.

I'm glad you approve.

Detective Hawk?

They just unlocked Brian
Johnston's cell phone.

Thank you.

Ok, the last text he received
was from a burner phone

two days ago.

"Now isn't the time.

"We need to talk first."

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

We were right about our partner angle.

Yeah, but who are the partners?

I don't think Derek
wanted his mother killed,

so who does that leave?

Brian and Katie?

Mmm.

What about Brian and Donald Sanders?

We need more evidence.

Yeah.

Jerry had a lot of enemies.

Derek said something about
Jerry Patton keeping case files

for insurance.

We should go back to his house and check,

and make sure we didn't miss anything.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Copy that.

Yes, I'm trying to get the
phonenumber or the address

of someone who sent me flowers today.

Mmmhmm.

Cassandra Shaw.

Blessings Kitchen?

Yes.

I'm popping out,
I'll be back in about half an hour.

Sure.

Have fun. We'll be here.

We've been through this
house with a fine-tooth comb.

Nothing.

I don't remember that extra
window in Jerry Patton's office.

That's because there isn't one.

Let's call in forensics.

Okay, let's see what's behind this wall.

There's something behind that bookcase.

Bingo.

Hey.

We have good news.

Something that might point the
police in a different direction.

But I'm gonna let my fellow
researcher elaborate.

As you know, uh,
the first episode of Kelso's Law

was based on the Millionaire Pup Case.

Which was like ten years ago.

But I found a bunch of
footage from the trial.

The story goes that Rex the dog belonged

to an older wealthy woman
who left him her fortune.

In a trust, because, you know,

a dog plus Rex equals no bank account.

Right.

We got it, Phil.

The woman asked Hannah to be the trustee

and after she died to basically
make sure that Rex continued

to live the life of luxury
to which he was accustomed.

But the twist is after the old woman died

under mysterious circumstances,

Rex's trainer claimed that
she had made a second will

naming him as the trustee, not Hannah.

Yeah, I read about that in the papers.

Yeah, so the dog trainer
took Hannah to court

but he lost because he
was never able to prove

that there was an actual second will.

Rex lived with Hannah until
he died a few months ago.

That dog had an amazing life.

He ate better than most humans.

Yeah.

So what happened after that?

When the trainer lost the case

he was arrested for smothering
the old woman to death.

Wait a minute, I... I know him.

Here, I'll zoom in.

His name is Charlie,
he's been hanging out at the restaurant,

asking a lot of questions.

That's Charlie Johnston.

The dog trainer from the case.

Isn't that Brian Reynolds next to him?

No, he's Brian Johnston.

Charlie's son.

I've never had anyone send me
goodbye flowers before so...

it piqued my curiosity.

So I thought I'd do a
little sleuthing of my own.

The woman at the motel frontdesk
said she saw you walking

towards the park, so I thought-

You shouldn't have come here.

Leave me in peace, please.

Just go.

Didn't you hear me? I said go!

I don't think so.

What don't you understand?

Can't you see I want to be left alone?

Okay. Why don't you tell
me what happened first

and then we can talk about me going?

Don't think I don't know
what you were doing out here.

I can tell you right now that
is not gonna happen on my watch.

Tell me what's wrong.

They killed my son.

Blessings.

Hi, Billie.

No, Cassandra's not here.

No, I don't know where she went.

She said she'd be back in a
half hour like an hour ago.

That's odd.

He's what?

Did you try her cell?

I think I know where she is.

I remember this one.

Millionaire Pup Case.

The dog that inherited millions.

Before my time, I think.

Billie?

We gotta go.

What? What is it?

Derek. He needs to talk.

He's at his mom's.

I... I don't think that's a good idea.

I'll have my cell phone.

I'll be careful, I promise.

Okay, thank you.

She said she heard
something that sounded like

a car backfiring about 15
minutes ago in this direction.

Oh, I was looking for Derek.

He's inside waiting for you.

I know he's gonna be happy to see you.

Please, come in.

That's Aunt Cassandra's.

Don't worry, we're gonna find her.

We've already got someone
working on unlocking

the GPS coordinates on her phone.

They have a lock on her cell phone.

What are her coordinates?

Apparently she's still in the park.

That way.

Wait here.

Get away from the car!

Put your hands on your head!

Search him, Vinnie.

Cassandra.

Ian, it's-it's Alright.

He's got a gun.

Don't move.

Cuff him.

Aunt Cassandra, are you okay?

I'm okay, I'm okay.

Come on.

Yes, he just needed to talk.

I was so worried.

I'm fine.

If anything ever happened
to you because of me-

Stop. It didn't.

Charlie and I just talked, that's all.

I'm glad you're okay.

Charlie is convinced that
you won't listen to his story

because he got arrested
for that woman's murder

in the Millionaire Pup
Case all those years ago.

But I talked him into trying.

We were on our way to the
station when you showed up.

We'll take him in and we'll
listen to what he has to say,

I promise.

I know we had dinner plans tonight.

Work calls.

I'll make it up to you.

Maybe I'll even cook.
I'm pretty good with spaghetti.

Uh! This I got to see.

I'll take a rain cheque.

I appreciate your understanding. All right.

Billie, there's something
else about Jerry and Hannah

that you need to know.

Good.

Now sign it.

What good's a suicide
note without a signature?

Now stand up and stop crying.

Let's go.

Get in the boat!

Stop!

She was gonna drown me in the lake.

Quiet!

Hannah, you don't want to do this.

This is a big mistake.

Don't you tell me what I wanna do.

You have stumbled onto
something you don't understand.

Oh, I understand more than you think.

You were the one who had Jerrys
end those letters to Katie

and then you had him come to
the restaurant to scare her.

I had to get rid of her.

She was trying to steal
my son away from me.

But why try to blackmail her?

Why not just turn over the
dirt that Jerry gave you?

Give it to the network, let them fire her.

Everyone knows she was in
breach of the morals clause.

They would have laughed me out of the room.

What're you talking about?

I am talking about disturbing the
peace, resisting arrest...

believe me, nobody cared.

And then something
happened and Katie became

the least of your worries.

Brian Johnston showed up
looking for that second will.

Oh, you're smart.

See, I knew I liked you for a reason.

Jerry recognized him the
moment he showed up on set.

I didn't think anything of it.

Obviously he was just trying to find a way

to clear his father's name,

but I had already made that impossible.

Until you realized it wasn't.

Jerry had that second will.

The one you thought he destroyed
for you all those years ago.

Let me guess.

He used it as insurance to
Ge this share of the trust

because Rex was gone.

All that money for a dog.

And then, Rex's owner,
she told that she changed her mind.

She was gonna give the
money that she promised me

to Charlie Johnston.

The dog trainer.

Jerry killed that old woman for you.

And when he wanted the
money you promised him,

Derek killed Jerry.

Or at least he thought he did.

No, not Derek.

Derek wasn't lying about
coming to the house

and getting in a fight with Jerry.

He just got the cause of death wrong.

It was suffocation that killed Jerry,

not a hit to the head.

Derek did all the work but I'm guessing

that you were the one who suffocated him.

I saw the whole thing from the house.

And with him down it was just so simple.

Which is why Katie saw you running

from the scene of the crime,
off to craft your own alibi.

How could you let him sit in jail

thinking he was the murderer?

I did it for him.

I did it all for him.

And then once they found out you were dead

and they saw your signed
confession and suicide note

they would have set him free.

You don't understand, I just...
I just wanted the best for him.

Hannah, it's over.

Give me the gun.

Oh, I just-I really liked you.

It's just too bad that you have to die.

No!

It's over, Hannah!

Billie, are you okay?

Yeah.

Cuff her, Hawk.

Hannah Kelso,

you are under arrest for
the murder of Jerry Patton

and Brian Johnston.

You have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say...

Derek's been released.

He's waiting at the station.

Hey.

Are you sure it's okay?

I hate to leave you guy
sat the dinner rush.

We got this.

Aww, thank you.

No, thank you for coming to my rescue,

even if I didn't actually need rescuing.

I still can't believe they
found that second will

in Jerry's old case file.

Well, I am very proud of Charlie.

He's donating all that money to charity.

That's great.

Mmmhmm.

Poor man.

I mean, he knew his son was
obsessed with clearing his name

but he had no idea that
Brian had taken that TV job

and was trying to do it all on his own.

He came right back to town
the moment he found out.

And that's when he saw
your name in the paper

and thought he could get more
information by coming here.

Yeah, well if only Charlie would
have told us what was going on.

Or if Brian had taken
Charlie's text seriously,

but instead he went over to
Hannah's house to confront her

and she turned the tables on him.

Well, I, for one, am glad that Katie

was cleared of any wrongdoing.

Me too, and Ian says they're
gonna go easy on Derek.

Okay, that's enough talk about that.

You need to get your feet moving,

you have a dessert party to chaperone.

Okay, well, goodnight.

Goodnight.

Have a good time.

The cupcakes!

Billie, you're the best!

Thanks, Billie.

Hey, help.

The house is overrun with
giggling little girls.

It's all those sugary desserts
you've been feeding them.

Says the sweetest woman I know.

Come on in.

So this is official your first date.

I guess it is.

You're a really special
person, Billie Blessings.

But I knew that back in high school.

And for some reason we
just let each other go.

Well, hopefully we won't
make that same mistake again.

Dad! Billie!

The chocolate fountain's ready.

A father's work is never done.

Yes!

I was waiting for this!

It looks great!
