I'm stopping by the gazebo
on my way home

to put up the sign.

I know it's not

in the City Manager's
job description,

but you know how important
this is to the Mayor.

Oh, one second, Theresa.

I submitted the approval
for your new awnings--

they're gonna be beautiful.

Okay, so the demolition crew
is coming early Friday morning?

Well, the groundbreaking
is a week later.

It's not like

they're taking down
the Space Needle.

It's a gazebo!
They'll have it done in a day.

Who didn't confirm?

No. I'll handle it.

Okay, I'll see you tomorrow.
Bye!

Jason, hi!
It's Allie Ferguson.

I hear you haven't RSVP'd
to the groundbreaking.

No, I know the flower show
is a big deal, but...

Okay, if I can
smooth things over

with the garden club,
can I count you in?

Great. I'll call you back.

Mary, hi! It's Allie Ferguson.

Good, good!

I can't wait to see
your prize-winning azaleas.

Listen, about the flower show,

I was thinking

we move your booth
to the front this year.

Hey! Don't forget
to stop by my office.

I'll help you
fill out those forms.

Good morning, Allie.

Good morning, Freddie!
Good morning, Julia.

Mm-hmm.

Julia...

we are going to get you
the approvals

to paint your store.

We just need a little more time.

You know how City Hall is.

You work for City Hall!

We've been here for 50 years.

Hanson's Family Treasure's
been here for 50 years.

Downtown used to be nice.

Downtown used to be
so vibrant and colorful,

and we're just trying
to bring some of that back--

- But red tape--
- Stop it.

But there's too much
red tape.

I agree! And I love

that you want to make
Springville better.

That's what the Mayor and I
want as well,

starting with
the new fountain.

Huh. Seems like

there's more red tape
for paints

than digging up
the town square,

if you ask me.

Have a muffin.

Thank you.

I baked them myself.

If she's still
giving me muffins,

she can't be that mad at me.

You don't know my grandmother
at all, do you?

Yes, the Army taught me

to study every detail,

to leave no stone unturned,

and that's why
I think I would make

just a great addition
to the Seattle PD.

What does
"community" mean to you?

What does
community mean to me?

I want to protect it,
make it safe...

Ryan?

Ready for your first day?

Yes, ma'am!

Oh, that's gonna
get old really fast.

Please, just call me Beth.

"Sarge".
Can we agree on Sarge?

Yeah, I think I can do that...

Sarge.

Baby steps.

So is that the, uh,
Seattle PD interview?

Uh, Jerry, over in Traffic,

told me
you look at it all the time.

Uh...

I'm just trying to learn
from my mistakes... Sarge.

Look, I know you're trying for
Seattle PD again at some point.

Well, actually, I can't
for at least another six months.

Until then, I'm taking
this job very seriously.

Yes, I've heard.

"Serious"
is your default setting.

Look, Ryan,

you were on Traffic
for less than six months.

They reassigned you downtown

because it took ages
to get simple tickets filed--

they were filled with details
that didn't even matter.

It would've mattered
if the paperwork was wrong.

What we do here
is community policing.

This is not Seattle PD,
and it is not the Army.

You know, things are
a bit more relaxed here,

and you need
to relax with it.

Did you really just make a note
about needing to relax?

In the city code book?

How much of that
have you memorized?

Most of it,
but now that I'm here,

you won't have to look stuff up.

You can just ask me.

It's a... It's a joke, ma'am--

Sergeant! Sarge.

I'm gonna go get
a cup of coffee in the diner.

Isn't that coffee?

No, this?
No, this is terrible.

But my brother-in-law owns
the coffee shop down the way,

and so I get a coffee every day,

and then I have them
replace it at the diner.

Makes things easier
at Thanksgiving.

It's all about relationships.

- Hmm.
- You want anything?

Uh, no, I'm good. Thank you.

I'm gonna keep
my eye on things out here.

It's a dance studio, Wyatt.
I need to play music.

What do you got
against music these days?

Nothing! You know I help
the music program at the school.

I just don't like it

when it's played too loud
on the other side of my wall.

What do you want me to do?
Hum, so my students can dance?

Allie, you're the City Manager.

There must be some ordinance
she's breaking.

It's a public nuisance!

A nuisance?

How about the exhaust fan
from your kitchen

that's making my whole studio
smell like pancakes?

Huh? Let's ask
the City Manager about that.

Who doesn't like pancakes?

All I said
was "good morning".

- Every morning, it's--
- See? She doesn't want--

- ...bup-bup-bup-bup-bup-bup!
- ...to talk about it, either.

Whoa-whoa-whoa! Okay! Okay!
I-I can help you

navigate this through
City Hall, if you want,

or we can settle it,
like good neighbors.

- Yeah, yeah.
- City Hall seems the way to go.

I think
that's the way to go.

Yeah, there goes
my Nobel Peace Prize.

Uh, stop by my office.

I'll help you
fill out the forms.

Wonderful.

Gladly.

Hey, Sam.
How's the team looking?

Pretty good.

I think
we have a good shot at State.

Great. Well,
I'll be there cheering you on.

Thanks, Miss Ferguson.

Excuse me, ma'am?

You know you're supposed
to use the crosswalk?

Oh, uh, well, yeah...
there was no cars coming.

Yeah, it's still jaywalking.

Well, technically, yes,

but I mean, the-the crosswalk

was on the opposite side
of where I'm going,

and this was
just more efficient.

I get that, but I'm still gonna
have to write you a ticket.

A ticket?
Uh, no, Officer--

- uh, Pruitt--
- May I see your I.D., please?

Yeah.

That's my, uh...

...City Hall badge.

I am the City Manager.

Allie Ferguson.

Nice to meet you,
Allie Ferguson.

Welcome to Springville.

It's a great town...

that I manage.

I-I've been here
for six months,

but just got
transferred downtown.

Oh, that's great.

Well, if you need any help
getting the lay of the land,

I'm your person,

or if you need
restaurant recommendations.

I appreciate that.

Actually, hoping there's
a good Thai place nearby.

Oh, yeah, uh, Sabhai.
It's fantastic.

Okay! I'll check that out.

Yes, tell Mrs. Anong
I sent you.

I will do that.

Listen, uh...

about that ticket.

Yes.

Could you sign here, please?

Okay.

You can pay...

by check, online,
or in person, at City Hall.

Yeah, i-it-it's
two doors down from my office.

Oh, that's efficient.

Okay! Have a good day.

And, again, thank you very much
for the Thai recommendation.

I've lived here my whole life.

Never got a ticket!

Good morning, Allie!

Good morning.

Theresa, do you know anything
about that piano?

What piano?

The piano in the gazebo.

There's a piano in the gazebo?

Where'd it come from?

That's what I'm asking you.

Well, I didn't know
there was a piano in the gazebo.

Is there a concert or something
we don't know about?

Not that I know of,

which may prove your point,
actually.

Why is there a piano
in the gazebo?

This is the question
of the day.

Parks and Recreation
is your jurisdiction,

so if you don't know about it,
who would?

Hope, you're the Mayor.

You know
how city bureaucracy is.

There's probably
an application

stuck in the machinery
somewhere.

You know

that building a fountain
in the town square

is a stipulation

of the VanWilkinson Family
Foundation's grant.

If we don't stick
to our schedule,

we can't build it
by the end of the year,

and we lose our funding.

Do you really want
to say goodbye

to all our plans
on revitalizing downtown?

We worked for over a year
on securing that grant.

I won't let anything
jeopardize it, I promise.

Thank you.

I do think
a piano in the gazebo

could be kind of fun.

Not when the demolition crew
comes tomorrow

to tear it down.

We'll have to have it
removed by then.

Um, okay, we need
to call the facilities--

Donnie, in Engineering,
will have to make sure

it's removed safely.

What else?

I guess we need to file
a police report.

Why?

There's a random piano
in the town square.

What if it's stolen?

Somebody stole a piano
and left it in the gazebo?

Why?

Maybe they couldn't fit it

into the trunk
of their getaway car?

Do you want
to divide and conquer?

Nah! I'll have all this done,
and that piano gone by lunch.

Uh, sorry, Officer.
I-I was just--

No, no, no, no!
It's okay.

Is it okay if I go?

Yeah, yeah, go for it.

By the way,
you're really good!

Just please don't
tell anyone, okay?

I hate to bother you with this,

but I've been working
on this mysterious piano

in the gazebo.

The City
didn't put it there?

No, and we can't figure out
who did.

- How can I help?
- Well, before I haul it away,

I need a police report,
in case it's stolen.

We can do that.

In fact...

I know the perfect person
for the job.

Allie, meet Officer Pruitt.

We've met.

I thought
it was supposed to be here.

When was the first time
you saw the piano?

Around 9:00?

But if you need
a more precise time,

it was about

five minutes after you gave me
a jaywalking ticket.

I'll cross-check that,
thank you.

Can you think of anyone
who might have put it here?

Look, I just need
a quick report.

It's more of a formality.

I can't finish a report

without conducting
an investigation, okay?

There is a process.

I appreciate process
as much as the next person,

however...

one thing I learned
working for the City

is that a rigid process
is the enemy of efficiency.

It's more about
the spirit of the law

and working together

to accomplish goals
expeditiously.

So in other words,
you like to cut corners,

or at least not use them
crossing the street?

It's not cutting corners!

It's about getting things done

and making it
to the finish line quickly.

In that race
with the tortoise,

how'd that work out
for the hare? Hmm?

All I'm saying
is that you need to know

what strings to pull
and who to talk to.

In this town, I do.

Great! You can introduce me

to whoever I need to talk to
for the investigation.

Is there a music store
around here,

or some place that might have
a spare piano lying around?

Yeah... over on Bay Street.

Great. Let's start there.

Great.

Something wrong?

No! It's all good.

Let's go.

Okay.

This way, big guy!

Just canvassing...

Hey, Dex.

Allie! Hey.

Hey. Oh...

Uh, did you get my text?

Uh, yeah, sorry.
It's been a busy day.

Ah, it's no worries.

It's about the concert
next month.

You still want to go?

Uh, as friends, I mean.

I thought you had a gig?

It got moved,
so I am all freed up.

Okay. Um, yeah.
Yeah, let's go.

Anyway, Dex Holloway,
this is Officer Pruitt.

He has some questions
for you.

What can I help you with?

We are here about a piano.

Well, you've come
to the right place.

No, Dex,
someone left a piano

in the gazebo
in town square.

Oh, that's really cool.

Yeah, except it's right
where we're breaking ground

for the new fountain,

so we need to find out
who put it there.

Do you recognize this?

I don't think so.

So you didn't put it there?

No, wasn't me.

Okay, great. Thanks, Dex.

Well, let me know if I can help
with anything else. Text me?

Yeah, sure.

He seemed nice.

Yeah, he's nice.

Huh.

And?

And... we dated off and on.

Currently off.

It's that obvious?

Look, it may be my first day
as a Community Police Officer,

but, uh...

wasn't very hard
to figure out.

Well, I believe him

when he says
he didn't put the piano there.

Okay, so who do
we interview next?

How many people
do we have to talk to?

More than one,
less than the entire town.

Okay, I-I-I kind of
need this done today.

Then let's get goin'!

Okay, well,
thank you very much,

and let me know
if you think of anything.

Bye-bye.

Okay, so all of the school's
pianos are accounted for,

so it wasn't
a senior class prank.

I didn't think so.

It's not the kind of shenanigans
kids get up to.

"Shenanigans"?
What is this, a musical?

What, your senior class
didn't do a prank?

We did not leave a piano
in a gazebo.

It was a Chevy
in a school gym.

I'm surprised!

By...?

You don't strike me as the type
who breaks the rules,

and I got a jaywalking ticket
to prove it.

Youthful rebellion.

And I learned pretty fast

that the Army doesn't like
shenanigans, either.

You were in the Army?

Thank you for your service.

It was an honor.

Well... we've talked
to about a dozen people,

and nobody knows
where that piano came from.

Can we wrap this up
and finish the report now?

Yeah, I think we've done
our due diligence.

Great!

I've got a crew
waiting at the gazebo

to haul the piano away.

Did you arrange that

before we finished
the investigation?

Just being efficient.

And one, two, three...
stretch!

Lift that leg!

Good!

Very nice, everyone!

Take five.

Allie, I love this piano.
Was this your idea?

No. We're here
to take it away, actually.

Really? But the--
the kids love it.

I even got
a new student because of it!

Oh, really?

She saw us practicing

and convinced her mom
to let her sign up.

I should've thought of this
ages ago!

Uh, "should have"
thought of it?

Did you have
something to do with this?

No! I just--
I mean, it's a great idea!

Well, great or not,
it has to go.

Sorry.

Okay, kids.

Back to the studio!

It really is a shame.

Sorry.

Okay, guys...

take it away!

Well, it wasn't as fast

as this hare would've liked
to make it to the finish line,

but I appreciate
the tortoise's help.

Any time.

Does this mean
we can say "case closed"?

If it makes you happy, yeah.

Um...

I'll see you around.

Sure. See you around!

the Mayor wants to make sure

the site is cleared

before we...

I thought
they moved the piano?

They did!

Well, they did a terrible job.

Who is doing this?

Does this mean we have to start
the whole process over again?

The paperwork,
the police?

Well, there's the crew
coming to tear down the gazebo.

I don't want to lose
another whole day

while Officer By-the-Book
does another investigation.

You mean him?

Okay, you know what?

Stall him!

- Stall him?
- Yeah, go, go.

- How? Wait!
- I don't know.

- Wait.
- Just say something.

Say that your cat
is stuck in a tree!

Hey! Hey, guys!

So, slight change of plan.
Who wants to move a piano?

All right, well,
thank you very much.

Have a great day.

Hey! Hi!

I'm Theresa. I work with Allie.
Hi. How are you?

I'm great.
I'm Ryan Pruitt.

Ryan! So nice to meet you.

So... what do you do?

I'm a police officer.

Right... hence the uniform.

- Uh-huh. Yeah.
- Yeah.

Yeah, yeah. That tracks.

The uniform. Okay.
It was very nice to meet you.

I have to get going.

Wait!

I... actually...

need a police officer.

Right.
I need to report a crime.

- You do?
- Mm-hmm.

What kind of crime?

How about
you give me a few options,

and I'll let you know
if you get it right?

I know your work order
doesn't cover moving a piano,

but since you're here,
and it needs to get done,

maybe you can just do both?

I mean,
what's the crime?

Um...

I could name a few.

Sorry.

How did this even
get back here?

Maybe it's a player piano.

You know, they-they do things
by themselves.

If you ever take
the detective's exam,

I hope you leave
those kinds of theories

off the essay portion.

Where did your moving crew
put it?

On the loading dock,
behind City Hall,

until we could figure out
what to do with it a--

Huh!

Huh? What, "huh"?

We have to reopen
the investigation.

What? No!

I already have
all the necessary approvals

to move this piano.

You signed off on it.

Why can't we just...
do it again?

Because this is
a different piano.

Are you sure?

Same style,
different brand!

The other one had
a scratch on the top.

Well, okay, fine, fine.

Do an investigation,

but can we at least
still move this piano?

I mean, the construction crew

are here to tear down
the gazebo.

What are they gonna do?

Yeah, I think they'll find
a way to keep themselves amused.

Besides, the gazebo
is technically a crime scene.

It is not a crime,
or it's barely one.

I mean, you said yourself

it's probably just
a harmless prank--

high school,
if not college kids.

College kids don't get up
to these types of shenanigans,

and they certainly
don't have

an abundance of pianos
lying around.

I can't think of who would
stand to benefit from this.

♪ Oh, when the saints ♪

♪ Go marching in ♪

♪ Oh, when the saints go marching in ♪

♪ Oh, I want to be in that number ♪

♪ When the saints go marching in ♪

♪ Whoa, when the saints ♪

♪ Go ♪

♪ Marching ♪

♪ In ♪

People seem
to really like this.

Yeah, well, like it or not,

unless we can put
a fountain on top of it,

it has to go.

Do we really need
a new police report?

Yeah, I'm afraid so.

I don't suppose
we can just copy the last one?

Come on! Aren't you
just the least bit curious

about who's doing this?

Hmm? It's a real-life mystery.

Professor Plum in the ballroom
with a candlestick?

Ooh, now we're talking.

Okay, fine.

I thought the crew needed
a little entertainment

while we wait.

That was great.

How many songs do you know?

We need to postpone
the demolition until tomorrow,

until we figure out
who's leaving these pianos here.

Tomorrow's Saturday,
and I'm out of town.

I could move some things around
and do it Tuesday?

Can you move more things around
and do it Monday?

I'll throw in tickets
to the county fair!

You drive a hard bargain.

All right.

Now, since we don't have
anything better to do...

Theresa,
I'll see you at the office.

We've got a few days
to figure this out.

"We"?

When did this become
a "we"?

If this isn't solved by
the time they return on Monday,

you're gonna end up paying him
to put on another concert.

Oh, I wonder
if he takes requests.

Okay, well, fine,
but we do this fast, right?

Yeah, yeah, of course.
Where to next?

I don't know.

I mean, we've already talked
to everyone I can think of.

All right,
let's talk to 'em again.

Who's our main suspects?

Monica Murphy?

She did say
she got a new student

because of the piano

and that she should've
thought of it,

so let's start there.

I left around 8:00 last night.

The piano wasn't there.
I would have noticed.

Your security camera

only shows
your front door, right?

Yeah, you can't see the square.

And you didn't see
anyone else playing it?

Not that I remember.

Then there's Wyatt O'Connor.

He's been complaining about
Monica playing music next door.

Maybe he put the piano there
to get her out of the way.

I also heard he supports

the music program
at the high school.

There you go.

Like I was saying--

I arranged
a bunch of instruments

to be donated--

the band has to be good,

if you're gonna play
the football games.

Any pianos?

Not too many pianos
in the marching band,

but the theater department
has one, I think.

Do you play?

Me? No!

But, uh, Sam used to,

but he's more
into football now.

Right, Sam?

Right.

And lastly,

there's Julia Hanson
at the second-hand store.

She's the only other
person I know

who'd have access to pianos.

We get pianos occasionally
from estate sales,

but I don't
have any right now.

You know, I think
that you should just leave it.

No, I've seen
people out there--

they're playing
and singing and dancing!

Oh, I mean, anything

that gets people to look up
from their phones

and stop rushing around

is okay in my books.

People don't connect
like they used to.

Well, Springville's
a pretty small town, Julia.

We connect here.

I stop and talk to you
and Freddie every morning,

on my way to work.

You say hi,
we talk about the weather,

and then you're off.

Well, I have
a lot of responsibilities.

I-I don't want to miss anything.

Slow down once in a while.

That's when
you find real connection.

What are you doing here
on your day off?

I'm just working on the report
for the piano case.

We spoke to at least 20 people,
I reviewed the security cameras,

I even tried tracing
the serial numbers,

but we've hit a dead end.

Do you have any other ideas?

Nothing that
Allie probably hasn't told you.

How's working with her?

Ha! We've been
having a very spirited

"tortoise v. hare" debate.

Yeah, she doesn't understand

that police work
is a systematic process.

Details matter.

Well, it's not like

you're taking down
some major crime syndicate.

It's a couple of pianos
in a gazebo.

Ah, I just feel like
I am missing something.

You know,
it feels unfinished.

Get used to that.
We don't solve every case.

I'd like to solve
my first one.

Some advice?

Maybe let the hare
win this one.

Well, hello, there!

Hello.

I almost didn't recognize you
out of uniform.

Well, police officers
get days off, too.

Oh. Well, what is
this "day off" you speak of?

I wanted to drop off
the report.

I know you're on a deadline.

Wait, we're done?
Really?

I'm not sure we've talked

to every single resident
of Springville yet.

Well, if you didn't
know them all before,

you certainly do now.

I certainly do.

Yeah. I meet a lot of people
at my job.

You will, too.

In the next couple years,

you'll even be
on a first-name basis

with the regular tourists.

I probably won't be here
long enough

for that to happen.

- Oh, where are you going?
- Back home to Seattle.

Yeah, I'm gonna be on
the force there, eventually.

Oh, have you applied?

Yeah. Yeah, I aced the tests,

but, uh, not so much
on the interview portion.

The answer
is always "world peace".

Yeah, I can
reapply again in six months.

So, Springville's
just a pit stop?

I'm still committed
to the job.

And what does Seattle have
that we don't?

Fewer pianos
being left in gazebos.

Yeah. Not a lot of true crime
podcast-worthy things

- happen here.
- Mm-mm.

Well, I'm sorry
we didn't defeat piano guy.

Piano woman?

We gotta work on that name.

- Yeah. Yes.
- Mm-hmm.

No, yeah, I would've loved
to, uh, figure this one out,

being my first case here.

That's why
I was being so thorough.

I appreciate it.

I do! I do.

If I can't have something done
right and quickly,

I'd rather have it
done right.

Did that hurt you,
to say that out loud?

A little bit.

Okay, uh...

I'll let you get back
to your, uh... your day off.

Yeah.

You know, I mean...

we could go over the case
one more time.

I mean, there's nothing wrong
with being thorough.

Okay.

Oh, that house
back there had a camera.

We couldn't see the gazebo.
I'm gonna make a note.

Were you always like this?

Did you have
fast-and-efficient tea parties,

always done in one hour
instead of two?

Uh, no, actually.

The opposite.

I grew up in Philly,

and my mom still lives there,

and after my dad passed,
it was just the two of us,

and let's just say

I had a very unstructured
childhood.

Your mom wasn't big
into rules and regulations?

Exactly.

She was, and still is,
a child of the '60s,

and embraced

a very whatever-makes-you-happy
kind of parenting style.

So how did you...

Become the goal-oriented

and accomplished person
I am today?

Sure! We can use your words.

Uh, after missing
one too many school trips

because I didn't have
a signed permission form,

I took it upon myself

to make sure I never
missed out on anything again.

And so you were
responsible for everything?

That must have been hard.

Yeah, but it made me who I am.

Can't be mad about it.

Honestly, I never saw

an opportunity
I didn't like the look of.

Including joining the rush

of working
for small-town government?

Yeah, only to find out
we don't rush much,

but I'm working on that.

Uh, there's a camera.

This can probably
see the gazebo.

It looks like the right angle.

This is Frank Myer's place,
but he's on vacation.

We can follow up
once he gets back.

Or... we can find out now.

Uh, what are you--
what are you doing?

That's--

Hey! You're trespassing.

Relax. Frank won't mind.

He owes me a favor.

I could arrest you right now.

Come on.

Did you never climb things
when you were a kid?

You and I had
very different childhoods.

Oh, let me guess.
Military family?

Police. Close.

Um, the opposite
of unstructured, you know?

Thanksgiving
with them in Seattle,

it consisted of a very,
you know, rigid schedule

and-and not much climbing,
or whatever you're doing.

Listen, structure and rules
are important,

but so is time for play.

Aren't you ever spontaneous?

Yeah, I plan time for hobbies.

Oh... so scheduled fun?

You must be great at parties.

Just... careful.

Oh...

Oh, no.

There's a tree
blocking the gazebo.

Okay, so, maybe sometimes,

being spontaneous
doesn't pay off.

I stand by my statement.

Okay, you want to stand by it
on solid ground?

All right.

Whoops!

- Sorry.
- You okay?

Yeah, sorry. Thank you.
Sorry.

Yeah.

It's fine.

Um...

well, I think we've covered
all the houses, so...

Yeah.

Is it okay to call
the facilities

and have them
move the piano now?

Yes, we are all done here.

I am surprised you don't have
the crew waiting on standby

at the gazebo already.

You have the crew standing by

in the gazebo already,
don't you?

No, no.

They're in a truck,
near the gazebo.

There it is.

Okay, I'll head
back to the gazebo

and meet you there.

Okay, I'll see you in a minute.

Okay, bye.

Hey, you're Sam, right?

Yeah, I was just
taking a shortcut.

Um... bye.

Sam! Sam, wait.

If you want to play the piano,
it's okay,

but it is your last chance.

The guys are coming
to take it away in a minute.

Really?

I mean--

Uh, it's okay.
I don't really need to play.

It'd be fine if you did.
You're really good.

Nah.

You think?

Yeah, you're really good.

Do you have a piano at home?

No, we-we used to,

but since football
takes up most of my free time,

my dad didn't think
we needed one in the house.

Do you like football?

Yeah! Yeah, I mean,
I'm good at it...

at least, that's what
everyone tells me.

Why don't you, uh...
why don't you go ahead?

I mean, one last time,

before they, uh,
you know, take it away.

Okay.

Do you want to join me?

Hi.

Okay, they're ready.

Let's give it a minute.

That was
a nice send-off for the piano.

Can we take a look at this?

Are you in the market
for a desk?

Well, my apartment
came furnished,

but there's
no good place to work.

That's the way
it should be.

Once you're home,
you're off-duty.

I'll make sure
to ask the criminals

to respect my work-life balance.

Oh, ho! A funny cop.

Oh... that's just what
this town needs.

Well, come on in.

I guess we're shopping.

I guess we are.

Thanks for coming in.

- Hey, Allie!
- Hi.

Officer Pruitt?
Uh, what did my grandma do now?

- He's here to buy a desk.
- Ah.

My grandson thinks
I'm a troublemaker.

Your grandson
knows you're a troublemaker.

Desks are over there.

Just yell
if you see something you like.

- Great, thank you.
- Thank you.

What about this one?

Yeah, it's, uh... no!

That's-that's--
that's too expensive.

I don't want to spend,
you know, too much

on something temporary.

Mm. Right, Seattle.

Why don't you
just take it with you?

You gonna help me move?

Oh, um, I can't, because, um...

I'm busy that day,

and I hurt my back,

and my grandma is--

Uh-huh. Yeah.
That's what I thought.

No, I'm going to keep my place
pretty simple.

Pretty much what's in there

is what was in there
when I moved in.

Mm. So you haven't put
a personal touch on it at all?

Not even a plant.

Well then...

We have some work to do.

You good?

- Yes.
- Yeah? It's not too heavy?

No, it's not too heavy.

Yeah, I think
this is the perfect spot.

You get the best light.

Don't want to have bad light.

I still think you should've got
that vase you liked.

Flowers bring
so much life to a place.

Sure, but men don't
often receive flowers.

I think we bought
plenty of...

items.

You snuck this past me.

I did.

Yeah, I mean, I guess this is
all only temporary, right?

Right.

Okay. There's already
a nail there.

- Should we put it there?
- Yeah, sure.

- Want to help me?
- Mm-hmm.

Okay.

There we go.

Wow, it looks great.

Yeah, it does.

So...

they're demolishing the gazebo
on Monday.

Yeah, unless something else
gets in the way.

Well, it looks good in here.

It's more... lived-in.

I should probably go.

Um... on the other hand...

we didn't expect there
to be a second piano.

Maybe a third
isn't out of the question.

Well, what do you
want to do about it?

Have you ever been
on a stakeout?

A stakeout?

I love it!

Do you get to be in a van
with high-tech equipment?

Ooh! You should get
some night-vision goggles.

I'll put in a requisition.

Was this the Mayor's idea?

No, it was Ryan's.

Ryan?

Officer Pruitt!

So you're gonna be up,
all night,

under the stars, with...

- "Ryan"?
- Why do I tell you things?

Yeah, you'd think you'd have
learned your lesson by now.

I'm only doing this
to make sure

that nothing happens

before the demolition crew
gets there tomorrow.

Just be careful.

I am always careful.

Besides, I'm sure
we'll have full support

of the police department.

The department

is absolutely
not gonna support this.

Ma'am--

...Sarge, you know how important
this is to the Mayor.

The Mayor asked you
to stake out the town square?

No.

But... apparently,
she's very gung-ho about it.

So you want to sit all night

guarding a gazebo
by yourself?

Well, I'm not gonna, uh...
be by myself.

The City Manager,
she volunteered to help me out.

Oh. I thought you were happy
to be rid of Allie.

Now you want to spend
a whole night in a car with her?

This is the best way
to stop a crime from happening.

At worst,
it's illegal dumping.

Not even stakeout-worthy.

Okay, fine.

But you're not
being paid overtime,

and you're using your own car
and buying your own coffee.

And not from
my brother-in-law's place.

Deal!

City codes?

You need to join
a new book club.

No, that's actually
really interesting.

Every city has different rules.

For instance,

Springville has entire sections

on public murals,
naming conventions, and bees.

Can we name this place
"Nothing Happening Square"?

It's been hours.

It's been 45 minutes.

Feels like hours.

I can do this by myself.

And let you take all the glory

while you catch
the ne'er-do-well?

Ne'er-do-well?

Outlaw. Scoundrel?

Oh, sorry, one second.

Yeah?

Oh.

Sorry, the 1800s called,
and they want their words back.

But what do you call someone
who puts pianos in gazebos?

Someone who has way too much
time on their hands.

It needs work.

This is gonna be a long night.

So...

tell me about
the man, the mystery,

Mr. Ryan Pruitt.

You know everything.

From Seattle,

law enforcement family,

joined the Army,
police officer.

That's all
you're gonna give me?

I thought you'd appreciate
the efficiency.

But you know I'm gonna
just keep on bothering you

if you don't talk,

so that's just wasting time.

That's the opposite
of efficient.

Has anyone ever told you

that you can be
very frustrating?

They used other words,
but yes.

I grew up in Seattle...

in a little suburb.

Two sisters.

We lived with our parents
in a house near the water.

Oh. So...

a boat guy?

More like...
"my dad really loves boats,

but I get terrible seasickness"
kind of guy.

You cannot mean that.

I do!

A hot dog is a sandwich.

Get out of my car.
Next...

you're gonna be saying
that cereal is a soup.

- Well--
- You've gotta be kidding me.

Okay, hold on here.

What are you doing?

Proving a point.

See?

I didn't say
they were the same!

I said they were similar.

Mm, I'll take that as a win.

Oh, yeah?

- You can take that as a win?
- Mm-hmm!

All right, congratulations.

Thank you.

Oh...

- Oh!
- What? What?

Oh, yeah.
There's someone at the gazebo.

Oh.

Stay down here.
I'll get the binoculars.

You stay here. Stay here.

Stay here?

- Are you okay?
- Yeah! Shh!

"Stay down"? Pfft!

Oh, yeah.

Really?

Whoa, whoa.

What are you doing?

Stopping you

from rushing into what could be
a dangerous situation.

Okay, I don't think
our piano guy/bad guy

is really gonna be
that dangerous.

You never know
where trouble lurks!

Danger rarely
plays the violin.

Yeah.

Dex?

Allie?

Shh, shh, shh.

Yes!

He's a friend of mine.

He asked me to play the piano
for his proposal,

but since you had it removed,
I had to improvise.

Okay, go, go. Sorry.

- Okay, okay, sorry.
- Bye!

Sorry.

Congratulations!

A little blanket.

Oh, thank you.

That was a nice thing
Dex did.

He seems like a good guy.

Yeah, he is.

So you guys were
on-again, off-again?

Are you going to try again?

I don't know.

I mean,
he checks all the boxes,

but his schedule's
probably more packed than mine.

We get busy,

and our relationship
takes a backseat,

and we break up,

and then we hang out,

and we start dating again,

and the cycle continues.

So what are the boxes?

Oh, I don't--

I mean, the usual stuff--
funny, kind, smart.

Thinks hot dogs are sandwiches?

Yeah. Doesn't hurt.

I mean, it's not
a deal-breaker, but...

Okay. What is?

Well, they have to want
to get married...

and they have
to want to have kids someday.

And they have to want
to settle down

here in Springville.

Wow...

the stars are really beautiful
tonight.

Yeah, they are.

Oh...

Sorry.

I must have fallen asleep.

It's okay.

I did, too.

Oh, come on!

How did this get past you?

So we had planned
on staying awake,

um, but--

We fell asleep.

I take full responsibility.

Okay, well,
we have to move it

before the demolition crew
get here,

so I guess, you know,
we'll just have to lift

from our knees.

No, Hope, I already
called them off,

as soon as I saw the piano.

The soonest they can get here
is Wednesday.

Oh, is that enough time?

Well, the groundbreaking
is a week from today,

so we should be good.

Okay, everyone!

Sorry, excuse us.

One lap around the square,
and then we're done!

It's important to keep moving!

Look, I'm really sorry,

but we have to reopen
the investigation.

No, we need to stop
playing around.

I assure you,
no one is playing around.

That was
unfortunate timing.

Very.

Wow! Lot of, uh, piano players
in this town.

This is fantastic!

I love that the City
put in a public piano.

Oh, we didn't,
and it's not staying.

Oh! That's a shame.

Um, Hope, can I talk to you
for a second?

Okay.

I'm-I'm wondering

if we might want
to take a step back

and reconsider

if tearing down the gazebo
is the right thing.

Allie!

Well, I'm just saying,
people are loving the piano.

I get it--
the piano's nice, but...

the VanWilkinson family
was clear about the grant.

We only get the funding if
we build the memorial fountain

in the town square.

Well, at least let me
find another place

to put the piano?

I just think

it's really making a difference
in the community.

If that's what you want to do,
then we'll do it.

Oh, thank you, and, well,

since the demolition
isn't happening until Wednesday,

maybe we can
leave the piano here

for a few days.

Sure, that's fine.

Thanks, Hope. See ya.

See ya!

Hey, Ryan. You got a sec?

Hey, Sarge, what's up?

Call that number.

I set up another interview
with Seattle PD.

Uh, I don't understand.

I was told I have to wait
at least another six months

before I can try again.

I made a call.
I know a guy.

Look, I like you.

I think you're a good fit
for Springville,

and the job is yours
as long as you want it,

but if you are gonna leave,

then I would rather you do it

before people start
depending on you too much.

I mean, you're already
Allie's guy.

No, no, she's not--
uh, I'm not-I'm not...

No. I'm, I'm-I'm...

I am a guy, though.

Not her guy, but did she--
did she say something?

I meant, professionally.

Yes. That's...

I did-- I did, too.

A word of advice.

If you ever commit a crime,

just confess,

because this...

is not gonna fool anybody.

Whoa!

Thank you!

That was great, guys.

Oh, I know that look.

Time to get back to work.

Maybe a little
spontaneous break won't hurt.

Okay, so let's figure out
the next steps to the case.

Look at you--
doing two things at once.

Don't forget,

we need to be methodical
about this.

Okay, are you done?

Probably not.

Here's the thing.

I'm not sure how much help
I can be on the case.

I have another mystery
on my hands.

I talked Hope into letting me
put another piano somewhere.

So you want
to keep the piano?

Well, everyone keeps saying

how vibrant downtown
used to be,

and we've been looking

for ways
to make it that way again.

Maybe this is one of those ways.

The mystery is,
where to put it.

Well...

we could solve
both of our mysteries together.

I have to canvass
the neighborhood still,

and we could look
for places to put the piano

at the same time.

You know what I call that?

- A great idea?
- Efficient.

I'm rubbing off on you.

Maybe a little.

Okay, I talked
to everybody on your list.

Nobody had any leads.

Maybe I should've
worn the uniform.

Because then you could've
gotten them to confess?

You never know.

Well, Beth told you
not to wear it.

This sort of thing
requires a personal touch.

Get people on your side.

Yeah. How's it going out here?

There's plenty of room
for a piano.

Yeah, but there's no cover
to put a piano under,

and I don't know,
I'm just not feeling it.

Well, the town square
has a certain romance.

Exactly! I mean, we witnessed
a marriage proposal last night.

I-I can't imagine

that kind of thing
happening out here.

Can't you get married
in City Hall?

It would certainly be
more, um, efficient.

That is a bonus,
but I don't know.

I'm just-- I'm not picturing
romance out here.

What are you doing?

Trying to help you picture it.

Allie Ferguson...

will you marry me?

Oh, Ryan!

This is the worst
proposal I've ever seen.

It's the setting.

If I took the time
to prepare a real proposal,

it would be the best ever.

I believe that.

No! You're the one
who needs a write-up!

Me? You're the one
who started this.

- Me?
- Yeah.

Monica, Wyatt,
what is going on?

I came to file
a formal complaint

about the noise
from her business.

And I'm gonna file one
about the smell from his.

Okay, well, look,

it's your prerogative
to file a complaint,

and I can go inside
and get the forms,

but maybe
we can just take a breath

and try to talk this through.

It feels like this all started
a few months ago, Monica,

when you started
having early-morning classes.

Her music rattles
the whole kitchen.

It's distracting.

What's distracting
is the smell!

My students are complaining.

May I ask a question?

Please do.

Um, Monica,

are your speakers
near your shared wall?

Yeah. How'd you know that?

My sister had
the same problem in her dorm.

You just need
to pad the speakers,

move them
to the other side of the room,

and it shouldn't be
an issue after that.

Oh. I could do that.

Well, if Monica's
willing to do that,

then I guess
I can get a new fan,

and open up the windows
when class is on--

that should
reduce the smell.

- Really?
- Yup.

That'll be great. Thank you.

You're welcome.

I'm glad we could help.

Well, Officer Pruitt and I
have a case to solve.

- Okay.
- Bye.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Well, that went well.

Yeah.

Ah, well, it's too bad
the center director isn't here.

Well, we can still poke around,

see if there's
a good place for a piano.

Yeah.

Oh.

Oh, yoga.

I actually wouldn't mind
taking a class

after sleeping in the truck
all night.

You do yoga?

Yeah, don't you?

I never tried it.

Class starts in 15,
if you want to join.

Fate!

What? I mean, we're not--
we're not dressed for it.

There's a sporting good shop
right across the street.

Uh... okay.

Yeah. Yeah, we're doing it.

Okay.

Just take your time

- and stay with the class.
- Oh, sorry.

Okay.

Let's move into downward dog.

Hold...

and breathe...

Great form.
Keep opening up those shoulders.

Everyone, warrior one.

What's that?

- Right leg forward.
- Oh.

Forward,
and then both hands up.

Like this. Yeah.

This is so slow!

I don't know
how you make it look easy.

It just takes time
and concentration.

Try focusing on your breath.

That keeps me in the moment.

Warrior two.

Try breathing with me.

How are you feeling?

Like I tested every ounce
of patience I possess.

Yeah. The more you do it,
the better you get.

Slow... and steady.

Wins the race?

And where have
I heard that before?

I don't know.

Could we really fit
a piano in here?

Whoa.
Did you say a piano?

Please don't tell me you're
gonna cram more stuff in.

You saw
how packed it was today.

I'm just thinking out loud.

We're looking for a place
to put a public piano.

Hmm. I don't think
there's much room in the center,

but have you talked
to that guy at the music store?

Dex at Holloway Music?

Yeah, him.

He might know
a good place it could go.

Hmm, thanks.

Huh.

We should talk to Dex again.

Why? He said he didn't do it.

Yeah, because we asked him,
"Did you do it?"

which he didn't--
what we should've asked him was,

did you sell the pianos
to the person who did it?

Interesting.

Yes.
The first two were not mine,

but the one that's currently
in the gazebo is from my store.

'Kay, who bought it?

I have no idea.

Someone came in after I left,
paid cash.

Kenny took the sale.

Can we talk to him?

Oh, he's camping.
He's off-grid until Tuesday.

It's okay.

Uh, we will figure it out.

See ya later. Thanks.

Uh, Allie?
Can I talk to you for a second?

Sure.

Uh, I'll just be a few minutes.
I'll meet you in the square.

Sure.

So a trip's come up
with some friends,

and I'm not gonna be able
to make it to the concert.

Yeah, um...

I wanted to talk to you
about that, actually.

We keep circling
a relationship

because we enjoy similar things,

but then we end up rescheduling
being together, and...

I think it's because

the connection
just isn't really there.

I'm realizing
I need something more...

steady, more constant...

More like someone

who makes me slow down

and take a breath.

Okay. Yeah. No, I get that.

So we'll just stay friends?

Yeah, just friends.

Okay.

- I'll see you later.
- Okay.

Why don't you join them?

Nah, there's too many people,

and music really isn't my thing.

That's not what I saw.

My dad wants me
to focus on school and football.

Plus, with my shifts
at the diner...

I wish they weren't
taking away the piano.

It's easy to come here
on my breaks,

or when I'm out on a delivery,

and Dad's busy.

You really like
playing the piano, don't you?

I love it.

Then you need
to talk to your dad.

Yeah, he wouldn't understand.

He might,
if he hears you play.

You need to find a way
to connect with him, all right?

Tell him what you need.

Family can be much more
supportive than you think.

Oh, gotta go.

- See ya later.
- See ya.

- Hi.
- He okay?

I think he's gonna be. Yeah.

How was your...

talk?

Clarifying.

Dex and I are just friends.

Nothing more.

I've never seen
the square so busy.

There's usually nobody here.

Well...
a fountain will be nice.

Yeah, but...

won't be like this.

There's something special
about that piano.

I've gotta find a place for it.

Well, we've nixed
the community center,

the wharf,
City Hall Plaza,

about a dozen different
street corners.

I just need more time.

Ugh. It's been a long day.

Why don't we meet
tomorrow at 9:00 a.m.?

We can go over it all again.

Can you do 10:30?

I've got a... appointment.

Yeah, that works.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Well, I'm gonna... take off.

I'm gonna get some food
before I get home.

Thinking about
trying that Thai place.

Oh, tell Mrs. Anong
I sent you.

I will.
What will that get me?

Extra packets
of sweet chili sauce.

Oh, yes.

I know.
I'm an impressive woman.

You really are.

Are you hungry?

I could eat.

See? Now, was I right,
or was I right?

You're right!

You're still wrong
about hot dogs,

but definitely right
about this.

Oh, it's getting late.

Yeah.

Didn't you say you had
an appointment first thing?

Yeah. I have an interview
with the Seattle PD.

Sergeant O'Leary
set it up for me.

Oh, that's great.

Congratulations.

Congratulate me
if I get the job.

The department, uh,

sent me a recording
of my last interview,

and I just, it's--

all I can look at
are the things I did wrong.

Mm. Such as?

They asked
what "community" means to me,

and I said some stuff
about protecting and serving.

And were you wearing tights
when you said it?

Does have a certain
"superhero" vibe, huh?

A little.

I mean,
the sentiment is there...

but it doesn't really
answer the question.

You've been here for a bit.

What have you learned
about community?

It's about making friends...

creating opportunities
for connection.

Mm-hmm.

When you're part
of a community

and you're not just policing it,

you know
what's actually going on,

and you can get to the core
of a problem more efficiently...

and you want to help,

'cause you're part
of that community, too.

Say that.

Cheers.

Kind of hot.

- Right?
- That's the best.

I'm telling you.

I think the law-and-order
part of the job

is very important.

However...

I think
it's even more important

for a police officer
to be a part of the community.

What does
"community" mean to you?

Well, um...

I'm glad you asked.

Hi.

Hey!

Whoa... someone's been busy.

Yeah, I've been
making progress.

I've even been researching
other places with public pianos

to see
how they managed it.

How did the interview go?

It was good...
I think.

The flowers helped.
Thank you.

You're welcome.

I know you'll get the job.

You seem like

the type who always gets
what he wants.

This is
what you want, right?

Yeah.

Then it's practically
a done deal.

So, progress?

Yes. I've, uh,

I've pulled every photo
of the town I could,

to see if I've missed a place
where a piano could go,

something not obvious.

Wow. That gazebo
has been there a long time.

Yeah, since the 1880s.

This one looks like
it's from the 1970s.

You can see the--

Allie, is this
who I think it is?

Yes, it is!

It was never about the fountain.

You got married
in the gazebo.

June 28th, 1975.

Beautiful day.

You told us you didn't put
the pianos in there.

I didn't.
Made Freddie do it.

It's not my fault

you didn't
ask the right questions!

Where did you get
all the pianos?

An estate sale...

but they only had two.

So you got the third one
from Dex's store?

And I would've bought more,
if you hadn't figured it out!

Grandma, now is not the time
to admit that.

So you were just trying
to save the gazebo?

Yeah.

I thought it would be easier
to distract you

than to get anyone to care

about how much this place means
to some silly old woman.

You're not silly.

You were just trying to protect
the place you loved.

How did you come up
with this idea?

- Freddie.
- Okay, not on purpose!

Well, he-he showed me
videos of public pianos,

and inspiration just struck,
you know?

Yeah, we put
the first one out there

because I thought
it would slow you down a little

and get you
to rethink things, and...

And the second one?

Have you seen
the town square lately?

The piano has
made everyone slow down, and...

and talk with each other,

and sing with each other and...

...and dance with each other.

Real human connection...

the most powerful force
in the world.

So that's it?

We can get rid of the piano,

and she's not
going to do it again?

She promised she wouldn't, uh,

but more importantly,
Freddie promised he wouldn't.

I think
if it was up to her,

she'd buy every piano
on the West Coast,

just to stall us.

I think it's really sweet.

I mean, she has so many memories
with the gazebo.

Well, the fountain will be
a place to make new memories,

and with the grant,

we can create more places
for people to enjoy.

I just wish I found a place
for the piano already.

I looked
at city-owned properties,

but there is nowhere as perfect
as the town square.

But how would that work
in the long run?

The weather's nice now,

but what happens
when it rains all winter?

I found a company
that does weatherproof pianos,

and if it was in a place
like the gazebo,

it would last even longer.

Allie...

I know.

I just wish there was a way
I could make everybody happy.

We work
in municipal government.

That's not possible.

So that's it?

Yeah, I guess.

Hi. It's Allie.

Can you send a crew
to meet me at the gazebo?

When you get the job--

...If I get the job.

When.

Would you leave right away?

No, I'd like to take my time

and make sure
I didn't leave any loose ends.

I wouldn't expect
anything less.

It's quiet out here.

I was thinking the same thing.

At least we got the job done.

Once the gazebo's gone,
I guess that's that.

It's funny,
at this point in a project,

I'm usually thinking
about the next thing,

worried I might be
missing something.

But...?

It's quiet out here.

Yeah.

Yes, it is.

I'm gonna figure out
how to make the piano work.

I just wish
I had more time.

Maybe I could've even
saved the gazebo.

If anyone can do the job...

it's you.

It's not about the job.

I've really enjoyed
working with you.

For the first time,

I feel like...

I'm not missing anything.

I feel like I am right where
I'm supposed to be.

Yeah, me too.

I--

we can't.

I'm sorry. I, um...

I should go.

I need to make sure everything
is set for tomorrow.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Me too.

Um, I'll, uh...

see you at the finish line.

Yeah.

See you.

Best Thai food in town.

Uh, yeah, it really is.

You know, if I get the job,
Seattle is less than

a three-hour drive.

I might have to come back
just for this.

Well, I'm sure Seattle
has great Thai food.

Yeah, but can I get
extra sweet chili packets there?

What?

Never mind.

If you do get the job,

we're really gonna miss you
around here, Ryan.

Thank you, Beth.

Yeah. See?

Only took you a week.

Didn't take long
to fit in at all.

Okay, so you can
have this torn down

and the site cleared
by the end of the day, right?

Well...

You gotta be kidding me!

That's why we're here.

We're gonna just--
Just give me one second.

All right, everyone!

Apparently, there's a new piano.

Yeah, and I didn't do it!

Freddie?

Oh, she didn't ask me
to do it, either.

- Dex?
- Not me.

Hold on.
Let me go take a look at it.

No, it's not one
from my store.

Somebody has to know
where it came from.

That's the same piano
as the first one.

How do you know that?

I don't know.

It just looks the same,
I guess.

You know, from a distance.

Huh! No, no, he's right.

No, that's the first piano
that we put in here.

So we keep getting rid of them,
and they keep coming back?

It's like a horror movie.

Someone must've taken it

from the loading dock
behind City Hall.

Yeah.

Why don't
we just leave it here?

It's clear
everybody wants it!

Yeah!

Everybody, please--

...we hear you,

and Allie is already, uh,

working on finding a place
to put a public piano.

It just can't be here.

Please tell me
that we can remove it

before we have to do
another investigation?

Yeah, that's not a problem.

With the other pianos,

we didn't know where
it came from

or who it belonged to.

We know this one
belongs to Julia,

so the question remains--

who took it from City Hall
and placed it here?

But we can get rid of it now
and ask that question later,

because we need
to tear down the gazebo today.

Yeah, that's fine.

Okay, Freddie,

how long will it take

for you to get a dolly
and one of your friends

and move it back to the store?

Uh, maybe 30 minutes?

We can move the demolition
to this afternoon,

if we do the other job now,
come back for 2:00?

2:00?

Sorry... couldn't help it.

Though--

while the piano's still here,
we might as well play it.

A last hurrah?

You know,
I have class in a few.

Dex, would you mind
if I bring the kids over?

One last dance in the square?

Oh, yeah!

The more, the merrier.

Tell them
to bring their friends.

That's good news, huh?

Now you have extra time
to find a spot for the piano.

I...
I can't believe my luck.

And now that
the investigation's back on,

I can help.

Ah... hold on one second.

Ryan here.

Oh, hello.

Thank you.

I will keep an eye out for it.

Okay, bye.

What's up?
Everything okay?

I got the job.

You did?

Oh, that's great. Uh...

I knew you would.
Congratulations.

Thank you.

Wow. So, uh...

I guess Beth
will be taking over the case.

Yeah, she can, if, uh...

it's what you think's best.

Um...

yeah, maybe it's for the best.

You know, it's a...

Springville
community matter now.

Right.

Yeah, it's a Springville
community matter.

Well, I-I should go.

Um...

I, uh, I hope Seattle is...

everything you wish it to be.

Okay, I'll see you later.

♪ You make me smile ♪

♪ Silhouettes on a cityscape ♪

♪ Watching the moon take shape ♪

♪ You make me ♪

♪ Smile ♪

♪ With your presence so sincere ♪

♪ My worries disappear You-- ♪

So many people have
been using the piano.

It's amazing.

Yeah, it is, isn't it?

Yeah.

♪ Oh, you make me feel so whole ♪

♪ Your captivating soul ♪

♪ You make me smile ♪

♪ You make me Smile... ♪

♪ You make me smile ♪

You know what would be
even more amazing?

If you took a turn up there.

Maybe it's time

you showed your dad
what you really love to do.

Yeah.

You have a talented son.

I didn't realize
he liked playing anymore, but...

wow, he's phenomenal.

Well, maybe you should
tell him that.

Yeah.

Yeah, maybe I should.

Why didn't you tell me
you could play like this?

I-I thought you'd be mad.

Never.

You're amazing,

and if you love this...

I will always support you.

Now go on, son.

I don't want to interrupt.

No, come on in.

Are we doing the right thing?

It's like the whole town
has suddenly found

this thing they love.

I know what you mean.

I never knew a piano
would fit so well,

until it was there.

Any luck on finding
a new place for it?

I'm going over
the grant paperwork.

I know there's an answer.

I'm just-- I'm trying
to go slow and take my time--

Take your time? Hmm!

It looks like Officer Pruitt
is rubbing off on you.

Has he started working
on the case

of who put
piano four there?

I don't know.

Um, I think
Beth is taking over.

Why? You two
are great together.

He got a job in Seattle.

Oh...

he's leaving?

Really?

Oh, I thought
you two were getting close.

No, it was just work.

Or you could tell him
you like him.

I don't know what you mean.

Oh.

Anyway, I should
get back to work.

Sure thing.

I will be at the gazebo
if you need anything.

Thank you.

Aren't you done for the day?

I'm just finishing up
my notes on the piano case

so you can
hit the ground running.

You got the job?

Yeah, I did.
Just found out.

Um, still have to go over
all the details,

but I wanted to say thank you.

Sure you don't want
to finish this last case?

You worked extra-diligent
on this one.

No, I think
it's probably for the best

if I turn it over to you.

Is this because of Allie?

Let's just say
there may be a, um...

a conflict of interest.

Plus, I'm leaving.

I'm not gonna be part
of this community anymore.

You know, someone
recently pointed out to me

that Seattle is less than
a three-hour drive from here.

If it's worth making
that drive for Thai food,

maybe it's worth making
that drive for... other things.

Well, those other things

are a lot more complicated
than Thai food.

Are they?

Or are you saying
they're more complicated

because that's easier than
facing it head-on?

Uh, maybe I will
finish the case.

Uh, I may even know who left
that last piano there.

Who?

Not ready to say yet.

I think they were making things

a little more complicated
than they needed to.

I reckon they were.

Go get her.

Allie, I need to talk to you.

Ryan, what are you doing here?

- Hey.
- Hi.

I wanted to...

check the tapes
of the loading bay.

It's-It's important.

You're still on the case?

Yeah. Uh, I didn't want
to leave anything unfinished...

...for the community.

Uh, did you figure it out yet?

You're witnessing

our last-ditch attempt
to keep the gazebo.

Really?
Do you think you can do it?

The-The grant is water-tight,

unless we can find
an ordinance

that keeps pianos and gazebos.

I'm not sure
that's in the city code,

but maybe there's
some archaic law we missed.

Are you saying you don't
know all of the city codes?

They do change
from time to time.

Nothing is set in stone.

Right.

"Nothing is set in stone."

Nothing is set in stone...

Uh, I'm gonna make
a quick call.

Okay? Uh,
I'll see you at the gazebo.

Okay, I'll meet you there.

I think
I just figured it out.

Um...

so this part
of Second Street,

this was renamed Benton Street,
back in 1968,

and-and Douglas Street
was changed from Third Street.

If we can rename a street...

I need to call the Mayor.

Hope?
Are you still at the gazebo?

Still here.

Can you stall the crew
for a few minutes?

I think I found a solution.

Just give us
a few more minutes.

Oh, wait-wait-wait!
There they are.

Did you sort it out?

I checked every code,
every contract,

every line
of the grant application.

Our plan's fool-proof.

Turns out, we won't need
your services after all,

but thank you.

Ooh! Are you ready
to share the good news?

Yeah.

Everybody!

Please, everyone,
can I have your attention?

Uh, I have an announcement
I'd like to make.

A-Actually,

I'm going to let
the City Manager,

Allie Ferguson,

announce it,

because it was her idea.

Thank you.

Hi, everyone.

I want to thank you all
for being here.

I have been doing this job
for years,

and seeing the community
this engaged

has been pretty incredible.

Uh, I'd like to thank
Mayor Atkinson

and, um...

...Officer Ryan Pruitt

from the Springville
Police Department.

What are we thanking them for?

Oh! Right, yeah.

Buried the lede, didn't I?

Um...

as most of you know,

the City has secured
a major grant for everything--

including parks
and landscaping

and city beautification

and a fountain,

honoring Springville's
first mayor.

We don't want the fountain!

We want the piano!

I know. I know!

I-- We want the piano, too!

And-And this is
the best place for it.

The problem is,

according
to the grant's conditions,

the fountain must be placed
in the Springville Town Square,

or we lose the funding.

- So what are you gonna do?
- Well...

since we can't move
the fountain...

we're gonna move the square!

I, Mayor Hope Atkinson,

hereby declare

that the plaza
in front of City Hall

will now be known
as Springville Town Square.

Further, I declare

that the former town square

will be renamed

Springville Municipal Park!

We did it.

We did it!

Okay...

All right...

We can have a piano!

We can have
a piano!

- Thank you.
- I'm so happy.

Oh, hi.

You came.

Yeah. Uh, did you work it out?

We did...
partly thanks to you.

Me? What did I do?

Well, you said
"nothing is set in stone,"

and you were right.

I realized
I could rename City Hall Plaza

into Springville Town Square.

Problem solved.

Oh, you're a genius.

We'll still have to redo
the plans, but...

construction can start
this year, as promised.

Okay, what about the gazebo?

It's gonna stay.

We can allocate
some of the grant money

to spruce it up...

and...

install a weatherproof piano.

This sounds like
a lot of work.

Mm. It'll be worth it.

Maybe being methodical
isn't so bad.

Well, I can't wait to watch
the transformation.

Wait... what?

I turned down
the job in Seattle.

You did?

Why?

Just really worried
I wouldn't get good Thai food.

Well, who could blame you?
I mean...

no one makes Pad See Ew
like Mrs. Anong.

Also, I felt like I got the job
under false pretenses.

How so?

They asked me
what community means to me.

And what did you say?

I told them that community
is about friendship

and creating moments
for connection,

and the only way
you can help a community

is to be a part of one...

like being
a part of Springville.

I couldn't give that up.

You learned all of that
from less than a week?

Yeah. I think I just needed
to be in the right place,

with the right people.

And by "people," you mean me?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Yeah.
Especially you.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

It took months,

but I loved
every minute of it.

The new
weatherproof piano is...

beautiful.

It is, isn't it?

It's too bad
we never figured out

who put that last one up there,
and why they did it.

My working theory

is that they were buying time

so someone could come up
with a clever solution.

It's so nice they did that
for the community.

No, they didn't do it
for the community.

No.

But it's just a theory,
of course.

I guess it's gonna remain
a mystery.

I guess it will.

Shall we?

Absolutely.
