00:00:03,110 --> 00:00:05,551
I have something called
post-concussion syndrome.

3
00:00:05,651 --> 00:00:07,651
Things could get worse
before they get better.

4
00:00:07,653 --> 00:00:09,419
Hey, uh,
my name's Michael.

00:00:09,421 --> 00:00:10,910
<i>A man approached me</i>
<i>at a meeting yesterday.</i>

6
00:00:10,911 --> 00:00:12,477
Apparently, I helped him once

7
00:00:12,479 --> 00:00:14,279
when I described
how integral

8
00:00:14,281 --> 00:00:17,082
my work was to maintaining
my sobriety.

9
00:00:17,084 --> 00:00:18,617
When all's said and done,
it's entirely possible

10
00:00:18,619 --> 00:00:20,953
I'm going to be unfit
to continue that work.

11
00:00:20,955 --> 00:00:23,455
Hello, Michael,
it's Sherlock Holmes.

12
00:00:23,457 --> 00:00:25,223
Well, I was thinking
of going to a meeting.

13
00:00:25,225 --> 00:00:26,892
I wondered if you'd like
to join.

14
00:00:26,894 --> 00:00:29,461
- - Yeah, how's St. -00?

15
00:00:29,463 --> 00:00:31,196
Excellent.

20

Huzzah!

21
00:01:22,383 --> 00:01:24,850
Come on, man.

22
00:01:24,852 --> 00:01:27,986
Really?

23
00:01:27,988 --> 00:01:32,157
This is supposed to be
an immersive experience.

24
00:01:32,159 --> 00:01:35,227
No tech post-1776.

25
00:01:35,229 --> 00:01:38,664
Dude, you think I didn't see
the Fitbit under your sleeve?

26
00:01:38,666 --> 00:01:41,266
My wife's been keeping track
of my cardio.

27
00:01:41,268 --> 00:01:43,268
At least it doesn't ring.

28
00:01:45,506 --> 00:01:47,873
Damn, George.

29
00:01:47,875 --> 00:01:50,275
How did you do that
to your chest?

30
00:01:50,277 --> 00:01:53,378
That looks amazing.

31
00:01:53,380 --> 00:01:55,547
Seriously, man.

32
00:01:56,684 --> 00:01:58,417
Are those squibs?

33
00:02:00,688 --> 00:02:04,056
God... George is dead.

34
00:02:04,058 --> 00:02:07,159
Yeah, we all are.
Lie still.

35
00:02:07,161 --> 00:02:10,429
No, guys,
George is dead for real.

Well, that definitely
wasn't made with a musket.

39
00:02:31,948 --> 00:02:34,384
Someone brought a modern
gun to a historical battle.

40
00:02:34,484 --> 00:02:36,784
His name's George Nix,
55 years old,

41
00:02:36,786 --> 00:02:37,986
address Upper East Side.

42
00:02:37,988 --> 00:02:39,354
Owns a chain of gyms.

43
00:02:39,356 --> 00:02:40,855
And it would appear
he was a lieutenant

44
00:02:40,857 --> 00:02:42,123
in the British infantry.

45
00:02:42,125 --> 00:02:44,325
Yeah, he was part
of a Revolutionary War

46
00:02:44,327 --> 00:02:45,760
reenactment here this morning.

47
00:02:45,762 --> 00:02:48,596
Something called
"The Battle of Harlem Heights."

48
00:02:48,598 --> 00:02:50,932
The scene of Washington's
first real success.

49
00:02:50,934 --> 00:02:53,034
After months of defeats
and retreats,

50
00:02:53,036 --> 00:02:54,802
he used a squad of rangers
to draw the British

51
00:02:54,804 --> 00:02:56,671
out of position and
then overrun them.

52
00:02:56,673 --> 00:02:59,207
The, uh, colonists then learned
to press their native advantage,

53
00:02:59,209 --> 00:03:00,775
employ more guerrilla tactics.

54
00:03:00,777 --> 00:03:02,610
Some people see it as
the beginning of the end.

55
00:03:02,612 --> 00:03:03,945
Well, we just see it
as the beginning

56
00:03:03,947 --> 00:03:05,246
this side of the pond.

57
00:03:05,248 --> 00:03:08,149
Nix was acting out
the British defeat.

58
00:03:08,151 --> 00:03:10,785
He and half a dozen others
fell down, playing dead,

59
00:03:10,787 --> 00:03:12,453
and then somebody
realized that, for him,

60
00:03:12,455 --> 00:03:14,122
it was no act.

61
00:03:14,124 --> 00:03:16,224
A number of his compatriots
must have seen the shooting.

62
00:03:16,226 --> 00:03:17,458
Yeah, well,
the problem is

63
00:03:17,460 --> 00:03:18,526
that they were all expecting

64
00:03:18,528 --> 00:03:20,028
to be in a gun battle.

65
00:03:20,030 --> 00:03:22,063
Nobody realized they were
dealing with live fire.

66
00:03:22,065 --> 00:03:24,832
It would be hard to devise
a less agreeable crime scene.

67
00:03:24,834 --> 00:03:26,467
Hundreds of men,
all dressed the same,

68
00:03:26,469 --> 00:03:29,037
all carrying weapons,
and all with gunpowder residue

69
00:03:29,039 --> 00:03:30,204
on their hands.

70
00:03:30,206 --> 00:03:32,273
Could be worse--
could have gone down

71
00:03:32,275 --> 00:03:34,609
while they were crossing
the Delaware.

72
00:03:34,611 --> 00:03:37,879
Come on, let's go talk
to the witnesses.

73
00:03:40,317 --> 00:03:43,051
- Because he was on my left.
- That's when everybody started shooting.

74
00:03:43,053 --> 00:03:45,119
By the time I looked to the
tree line, he was already down.

75
00:03:45,121 --> 00:03:46,588
Gentlemen, we can only
really understand

76
00:03:46,590 --> 00:03:47,889
six of you at a time.

77
00:03:47,891 --> 00:03:49,591
Would you repeat
what you said about

78
00:03:49,593 --> 00:03:50,825
someone hiding
in the foliage?

79
00:03:50,827 --> 00:03:52,193
Yeah, I was just saying
there was

80
00:03:52,195 --> 00:03:53,695
this clump of maple trees
behind the Yanks

81
00:03:53,697 --> 00:03:55,163
during that last skirmish.

82
00:03:55,165 --> 00:03:57,599
My guess is, whoever shot
George was hiding there.

83
00:03:57,601 --> 00:03:59,100
I mean, the guy
probably slipped out

84
00:03:59,102 --> 00:04:00,201
after he pulled
the trigger.

85
00:04:00,203 --> 00:04:01,703
You guess or you saw?

86
00:04:01,705 --> 00:04:04,839
I guess.
I mean, it just makes sense.

87
00:04:04,841 --> 00:04:07,542
I saw, I think, uh,
there was a guy--

88
00:04:07,544 --> 00:04:09,210
brown hair, medium build...

89
00:04:09,212 --> 00:04:11,379
You mean the tall guy?
Yeah, uh, maybe.

90
00:04:11,381 --> 00:04:13,114
He was in an artillery
uniform, right?

91
00:04:13,116 --> 00:04:15,783
I think the guy I saw
had a cavalry saber.

92
00:04:15,785 --> 00:04:16,985
I-- you know, I'm not--
I'm not sure.

93
00:04:16,987 --> 00:04:18,920
There was smoke everywhere.

94
00:04:18,922 --> 00:04:20,655
Didn't you say you saw a car?

95
00:04:20,657 --> 00:04:22,056
Yeah, a-a white van

96
00:04:22,058 --> 00:04:23,925
on the far side
of the park.

97
00:04:23,927 --> 00:04:27,829
Right. So I-I think maybe my guy
jumped in and drove off.

98
00:04:27,831 --> 00:04:29,797
So, a man of average build,
or possibly tall,

99
00:04:29,799 --> 00:04:32,000
who was infantry or cavalry,

100
00:04:32,002 --> 00:04:34,836
fled on foot or in a white van.

101
00:04:36,740 --> 00:04:38,740
Any of you hear anything
out of the ordinary?

102
00:04:40,310 --> 00:04:42,043
Most of us put these
in our ears.

103
00:04:42,045 --> 00:04:43,578
Gets pretty loud
during our battles.

104
00:04:43,580 --> 00:04:46,147
Actually, you know,
I could have sworn

105
00:04:46,149 --> 00:04:48,249
I heard a .308
in that volley

106
00:04:48,251 --> 00:04:49,984
right before George
got hit.

107
00:04:49,986 --> 00:04:51,653
Sounded like my
brother-in-law's gun.

108
00:04:51,655 --> 00:04:53,354
It had that kind
of pop to it.

109
00:04:53,356 --> 00:04:55,289
We're gonna have you,
have you all,

110
00:04:55,291 --> 00:04:56,824
come down to the station
to give us written statements.

111
00:04:56,826 --> 00:04:57,925
All right?

112
00:04:57,927 --> 00:05:00,028
Thank you very much,
gentlemen.

113
00:05:01,765 --> 00:05:04,298
Even for a group of adults
who play dress-up in the woods,

114
00:05:04,300 --> 00:05:05,933
they're confused.

115
00:05:05,935 --> 00:05:07,835
But the entry and exit wounds
did look like they were made

116
00:05:07,837 --> 00:05:09,103
by a .308.

117
00:05:09,105 --> 00:05:10,805
I posted people
at all the park exits

118
00:05:10,807 --> 00:05:13,174
to check the reenactors' rifles
before they're released.

119
00:05:13,176 --> 00:05:15,977
I'm also gonna put out a Finest
Message for the white van.

120
00:05:15,979 --> 00:05:17,712
We can only hope for the best.

121
00:05:17,714 --> 00:05:19,580
Let's hope that Marcus
and Watson had more luck.

122
00:05:19,582 --> 00:05:21,649
Where were you
at that point?

123
00:05:30,460 --> 00:05:32,060
I told George this would happen.

124
00:05:32,062 --> 00:05:34,128
I warned him a dozen times.
You don't hire a bodyguard

125
00:05:34,130 --> 00:05:35,930
and then tell him
not to guard your body.

126
00:05:35,932 --> 00:05:37,699
So you didn't go
onto the battlefield

127
00:05:37,701 --> 00:05:39,834
with Mr. Nix
during the reenactment?

128
00:05:39,836 --> 00:05:41,436
He said there weren't
any guys who looked like me

129
00:05:41,438 --> 00:05:43,371
fighting for the British army
in colonial times.

130
00:05:43,373 --> 00:05:46,207
So, come out here, and there's,
like, a thousand people

131
00:05:46,209 --> 00:05:47,475
running around with guns,

132
00:05:47,477 --> 00:05:50,078
and he's got me in the car

133
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,380
for "historical accuracy."

134
00:05:52,382 --> 00:05:54,215
I'm curious,
why did Mr. Nix

135
00:05:54,217 --> 00:05:55,450
have a bodyguard at all?

136
00:05:55,452 --> 00:05:57,418
You ever work out
at a Centrix Gym?

137
00:05:57,420 --> 00:05:59,387
No, but I've seen 'em around.

138
00:05:59,389 --> 00:06:01,689
Right. I mean, George
didn't own them all,

139
00:06:01,691 --> 00:06:04,692
but he owned the brand
and the marketing system.

140
00:06:04,694 --> 00:06:06,728
So people could
pay him a fee

141
00:06:06,730 --> 00:06:08,262
and own their own franchise.

142
00:06:08,264 --> 00:06:10,465
It must have been pretty
profitable for your boss.

143
00:06:10,467 --> 00:06:12,333
Those gyms are
all over the place.

144
00:06:12,335 --> 00:06:13,901
The money was pouring in,

145
00:06:13,903 --> 00:06:15,369
but so were the death threats.

146
00:06:15,371 --> 00:06:16,571
For who?

147
00:06:16,573 --> 00:06:19,006
Well, a lot of people
took on debt

148
00:06:19,008 --> 00:06:20,441
to buy into the business.

149
00:06:20,443 --> 00:06:22,443
And then they found out
it was almost impossible

150
00:06:22,445 --> 00:06:23,911
to get out of the red.

151
00:06:23,913 --> 00:06:25,379
Some of 'em sell
their cars,

152
00:06:25,381 --> 00:06:28,282
their homes just to keep
from going under.

153
00:06:28,284 --> 00:06:29,784
George kept it out of the news,

154
00:06:29,786 --> 00:06:31,686
but there had been
a lot of bankruptcies.

155
00:06:31,688 --> 00:06:33,321
And these people
blame your boss?

156
00:06:33,323 --> 00:06:35,423
Well, it was in their contract
they had to buy

157
00:06:35,425 --> 00:06:37,458
used equipment at big markups

158
00:06:37,460 --> 00:06:39,327
from people who had joined
the company before them.

159
00:06:39,329 --> 00:06:42,163
Sounds like some sort
of a pyramid scheme to me.

160
00:06:42,165 --> 00:06:45,166
Because it pretty much is one.

161
00:06:45,168 --> 00:06:46,534
People started sending e-mails

162
00:06:46,536 --> 00:06:48,069
saying they wanted
to hurt George,

163
00:06:48,071 --> 00:06:49,437
talking about how
they were gonna

164
00:06:49,439 --> 00:06:51,038
track him down and kill him.

165
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:52,740
One guy said he wanted
to cut George's head off

166
00:06:52,742 --> 00:06:54,475
and feed it to his poodle.

167
00:06:54,477 --> 00:06:55,543
That's when he called me.

168
00:06:55,545 --> 00:06:57,178
You still have
these e-mails?

169
00:06:57,180 --> 00:06:59,781
The security company
I work for has access

170
00:06:59,783 --> 00:07:02,617
to all of George's accounts
so that we can monitor threats.

171
00:07:02,619 --> 00:07:04,619
I'll send you a password.

172
00:07:06,122 --> 00:07:08,256
Three little maids
from school are we,

173
00:07:08,258 --> 00:07:11,159
pert as a schoolgirl
well may be,

174
00:07:11,161 --> 00:07:13,694
filled to the brim
with girlish glee,

175
00:07:13,696 --> 00:07:15,563
three little maids
from school.

176
00:07:15,565 --> 00:07:17,899
Not a very enthusiastic
performance,

177
00:07:17,901 --> 00:07:19,700
but thanks for
the demonstration.

178
00:07:19,702 --> 00:07:20,768
At least we know
your long-term memory

179
00:07:20,770 --> 00:07:22,436
is unaffected.

180
00:07:22,438 --> 00:07:25,039
Evidently my last concussion
was not enough

181
00:07:25,041 --> 00:07:27,642
to erase my schoolboy years
with Gilbert and Sullivan.

182
00:07:27,644 --> 00:07:30,645
There are elective
procedures for that.

183
00:07:30,647 --> 00:07:32,413
Joking aside, Dr. Hanson,

184
00:07:32,415 --> 00:07:34,782
that light of yours is
pure agony.

185
00:07:36,452 --> 00:07:37,552
The headaches
are getting worse?

186
00:07:37,554 --> 00:07:38,786
And more frequent.

187
00:07:38,788 --> 00:07:40,321
They're interfering
with my focus,

188
00:07:40,323 --> 00:07:42,323
my sleep, my existence.

189
00:07:42,325 --> 00:07:44,358
Are you taking the gabapentin
I prescribed?

190
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:45,993
It's not helping?

191
00:07:45,995 --> 00:07:48,696
Point of fact, I think
my symptoms are getting worse.

192
00:07:48,698 --> 00:07:51,666
Blurred vision, short-term
memory loss, the pain.

193
00:07:51,668 --> 00:07:54,268
It's just not the trajectory
I'd hoped for

194
00:07:54,270 --> 00:07:55,670
when I put myself in your care.

195
00:07:55,672 --> 00:07:58,739
Haven't I been
straight with you?

196
00:07:58,741 --> 00:08:01,375
Recovery from
post-concussion syndrome

197
00:08:01,377 --> 00:08:02,510
doesn't happen overnight.

198
00:08:02,512 --> 00:08:04,645
Your brain needs time
to heal itself.

199
00:08:04,647 --> 00:08:06,814
Recovery can be circuitous.

200
00:08:06,816 --> 00:08:09,217
So that's the sum total
of your professional advice--

201
00:08:09,219 --> 00:08:11,552
just wait and hope for the best?

202
00:08:11,554 --> 00:08:14,355
I'm raising your dose
of gabapentin

203
00:08:14,357 --> 00:08:16,858
from 200 milligrams
to 400 milligrams.

204
00:08:16,860 --> 00:08:20,161
It might make you drowsy,
but you shouldn't notice

205
00:08:20,163 --> 00:08:21,429
any other changes.

206
00:08:21,431 --> 00:08:24,098
And if that doesn't
do the trick,

207
00:08:24,100 --> 00:08:26,067
we'll keep upping the dosage
until it does.

208
00:08:27,837 --> 00:08:30,972
I know you don't like putting
more pills in your body,

209
00:08:30,974 --> 00:08:33,541
but you haven't had
a euphoric reaction.

210
00:08:33,543 --> 00:08:35,743
I don't believe you're
at any risk of dependency.

211
00:08:35,745 --> 00:08:40,081
Gabapentin may not
typically be habit-forming,

212
00:08:40,083 --> 00:08:43,284
but I am.
Sherlock,

213
00:08:43,286 --> 00:08:45,553
this medication's
the best option

214
00:08:45,555 --> 00:08:48,022
for someone with your history
of addiction

215
00:08:48,024 --> 00:08:49,657
and the symptoms you've shown.

216
00:08:49,659 --> 00:08:52,226
Trust me.

217
00:08:57,267 --> 00:08:59,066
What is that on your head?

218
00:08:59,068 --> 00:09:01,903
It's a welder's mask
from the 1930s.

219
00:09:01,905 --> 00:09:03,838
Okay.

220
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,273
Why is it on your head?

221
00:09:05,275 --> 00:09:07,441
The Filterweld lenses
offer better protection

222
00:09:07,443 --> 00:09:09,343
against glare than
regular sunglasses.

223
00:09:09,345 --> 00:09:11,545
Your headache's that bad?

224
00:09:11,547 --> 00:09:13,447
Calling it a headache is
an understatement.

225
00:09:13,449 --> 00:09:15,816
You know, staring
at a computer monitor

226
00:09:15,818 --> 00:09:17,852
does not help-- I got this.
- No, no.

227
00:09:17,854 --> 00:09:20,087
It's fine. I just finished
going through the threats

228
00:09:20,089 --> 00:09:22,123
made against Mr. Nix.

229
00:09:22,125 --> 00:09:23,591
And?

230
00:09:23,593 --> 00:09:26,327
Well, he's not winning
any popularity contests.

231
00:09:26,329 --> 00:09:27,862
Half of his franchisees
truly loathe him,

232
00:09:27,864 --> 00:09:29,163
but I don't think
any of them are

233
00:09:29,165 --> 00:09:31,532
the architects of his demise.
Why not?

234
00:09:31,534 --> 00:09:33,100
This crime was planned
well in advance.

235
00:09:33,102 --> 00:09:35,136
Our killer was patient
and exacting.

236
00:09:35,138 --> 00:09:36,671
These are not traits
that spring to mind

237
00:09:36,673 --> 00:09:38,139
when you read e-mails like,

238
00:09:38,141 --> 00:09:40,274
"I am serious, bro,
I'll beat your ass

239
00:09:40,276 --> 00:09:42,343
until you see stars
in the daytime."

240
00:09:42,345 --> 00:09:43,678
They're all like this?

241
00:09:43,680 --> 00:09:45,012
No, this one stands out

242
00:09:45,014 --> 00:09:46,714
for its proper spelling
and punctuation.

243
00:09:46,716 --> 00:09:49,417
Even if any of these
delightful epistolarians

244
00:09:49,419 --> 00:09:51,152
did harbor homicidal
tendencies,

245
00:09:51,154 --> 00:09:53,387
it seems unlikely
that any of them

246
00:09:53,389 --> 00:09:56,357
would know that Mr. Nix
planned to travel back

247
00:09:56,359 --> 00:09:59,327
to 1776 yesterday and make
himself such a ripe target.

248
00:09:59,329 --> 00:10:01,929
Well...

249
00:10:01,931 --> 00:10:03,931
So, the e-mails are
a dead end.

250
00:10:03,933 --> 00:10:05,032
Not entirely.

251
00:10:05,034 --> 00:10:06,667
I found some turbulent
correspondence

252
00:10:06,669 --> 00:10:10,805
between George and
his daughter Marcy.

253
00:10:16,145 --> 00:10:17,845
That's nasty stuff.

254
00:10:17,847 --> 00:10:19,680
Doesn't sound like Thanksgiving
at the Nixes' house

255
00:10:19,682 --> 00:10:20,748
would be much fun.

256
00:10:20,750 --> 00:10:22,917
But then again, you know,

257
00:10:22,919 --> 00:10:24,819
a lot of people argue
with their parents.

258
00:10:24,821 --> 00:10:27,488
Read the last bit.

259
00:10:29,859 --> 00:10:31,258
She dropped off the map

260
00:10:31,260 --> 00:10:32,493
after severing ties
with her father

261
00:10:32,495 --> 00:10:33,828
and told him that
she would kill him

262
00:10:33,830 --> 00:10:35,863
if he ever came looking for her.

263
00:10:35,865 --> 00:10:37,698
I wonder if she's
still in his will.

264
00:10:37,700 --> 00:10:39,600
That is a question
worth asking her.

265
00:10:39,602 --> 00:10:43,504
I managed to track her to
an address in Montebello,

266
00:10:43,506 --> 00:10:45,706
which is 35 miles
northwest of the city.

267
00:10:45,708 --> 00:10:47,875
If you leave now,
you could buy yourself a meal

268
00:10:47,877 --> 00:10:50,111
which doesn't smell
like decomposing cassowary.

269
00:10:50,113 --> 00:10:52,713
You don't feel
like coming along?

270
00:10:52,715 --> 00:10:55,349
It's not that. I just, I have
to meet with, um, Michael.

271
00:10:55,351 --> 00:10:56,517
I've mentioned him before.

272
00:10:56,519 --> 00:10:57,752
Yeah, a couple of times.

273
00:10:57,754 --> 00:10:59,020
Wait, is he
your new sponsor?

274
00:10:59,022 --> 00:11:00,287
No.

275
00:11:00,289 --> 00:11:02,056
But I do recognize
that it's important

276
00:11:02,058 --> 00:11:03,724
to talk to people
in times like this,

277
00:11:03,726 --> 00:11:05,426
and he made
himself available.

278
00:11:05,428 --> 00:11:08,662
So, I appreciate that.

279
00:11:08,664 --> 00:11:11,532
Now more than usual.

280
00:11:24,614 --> 00:11:26,347
- Hey.
- Wow, you got here fast.

281
00:11:26,349 --> 00:11:29,150
Sorry about the mess.

282
00:11:29,152 --> 00:11:30,584
Don't be; you
should see my place.

283
00:11:30,586 --> 00:11:33,621
"If a cluttered desk
is a sign of a cluttered mind,

284
00:11:33,623 --> 00:11:35,723
of what, then,
is an empty desk a sign of?"

285
00:11:35,725 --> 00:11:36,791
Who said that?

286
00:11:36,793 --> 00:11:37,858
Einstein.

287
00:11:37,860 --> 00:11:39,226
That guy.

288
00:11:39,228 --> 00:11:41,829
You know, when he wasn't busy
figuring out the universe,

289
00:11:41,831 --> 00:11:44,665
he sure could crank out quotes
for a fridge magnet.

290
00:11:46,335 --> 00:11:48,836
Do you want to grab
a cup of coffee downstairs?

291
00:11:48,838 --> 00:11:49,870
Yeah.

292
00:11:49,872 --> 00:11:51,839
Okay.

293
00:11:51,841 --> 00:11:54,175
Your doctor doubled your
dose, just like that?

294
00:11:54,177 --> 00:11:57,344
Mm, he says there's no reason
not to be aggressive.

295
00:11:57,346 --> 00:11:59,980
I've shown no signs of physical
dependency to gabapentin,

296
00:11:59,982 --> 00:12:03,117
and, uh, the symptoms of my PCS
have been getting worse.

297
00:12:03,119 --> 00:12:05,386
I'm sorry to hear that.

298
00:12:05,388 --> 00:12:07,455
Yeah. Well, I'm not in any pain
at the moment.

299
00:12:07,457 --> 00:12:09,356
So it's possible
the medication's working.

300
00:12:09,358 --> 00:12:12,326
Right, but you're
anxious about it.

301
00:12:12,328 --> 00:12:14,662
Worried it won't work?

302
00:12:14,664 --> 00:12:17,131
I'm actually more fearful
that it will work.

303
00:12:17,133 --> 00:12:19,934
Right, I get it.
You're an addict.

304
00:12:19,936 --> 00:12:21,869
The idea that you
need more drugs...

305
00:12:21,871 --> 00:12:23,204
can't be easy.

306
00:12:23,206 --> 00:12:24,505
When I was using,

307
00:12:24,507 --> 00:12:26,507
I, um,

308
00:12:26,509 --> 00:12:28,509
I used this tortured calculus

309
00:12:28,511 --> 00:12:31,812
to, uh, come up with
all sorts of reasons

310
00:12:31,814 --> 00:12:35,616
that would justify stuffing
my veins with chemicals.

311
00:12:35,618 --> 00:12:37,651
I want to get better,

312
00:12:37,653 --> 00:12:39,086
but I just don't, I just don't

313
00:12:39,088 --> 00:12:40,988
want to go back
to thinking that way.

314
00:12:42,859 --> 00:12:44,992
Well, last time we spoke,

315
00:12:44,994 --> 00:12:47,361
you said you had a partner
who was a doctor.

316
00:12:47,363 --> 00:12:49,563
Wh-What did she say
about all this?

317
00:12:49,565 --> 00:12:51,165
I didn't discuss it with her.

318
00:12:51,167 --> 00:12:53,033
- How come?
- Because I know what she'll say.

319
00:12:53,035 --> 00:12:55,469
She'll say that Dr. Hanson
is the finest neurologist

320
00:12:55,471 --> 00:12:56,937
on the Eastern Seaboard,
and he wouldn't

321
00:12:56,939 --> 00:12:58,339
prescribe this medication
if he didn't think

322
00:12:58,341 --> 00:12:59,874
it was the best course
of action.

323
00:12:59,876 --> 00:13:01,542
She'd also say that
I'm very, very strong

324
00:13:01,544 --> 00:13:04,245
in my program of recovery
and that I shouldn't worry.

325
00:13:04,247 --> 00:13:05,980
Maybe she's right.

326
00:13:05,982 --> 00:13:07,748
I mean, recovery's a team sport.

327
00:13:07,750 --> 00:13:10,484
That's... why we sit
in church basements

328
00:13:10,486 --> 00:13:12,786
and rec centers with
people we don't know.

329
00:13:12,788 --> 00:13:17,158
Because we need
other people's help.

330
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,327
We need to allow ourselves
to be helped.

331
00:13:20,329 --> 00:13:22,963
Do you think I should
stay on medication?

332
00:13:22,965 --> 00:13:26,467
Honestly,
who cares what I think?

333
00:13:26,469 --> 00:13:28,335
I mean, you're sober.

334
00:13:28,337 --> 00:13:30,137
You know, there's no way
you could've done that

335
00:13:30,139 --> 00:13:32,473
without trusting
the people around you.

336
00:13:32,475 --> 00:13:34,008
And right now,
when you're in pain

337
00:13:34,010 --> 00:13:35,609
and can't think straight?

338
00:13:35,611 --> 00:13:38,279
It's probably not the best time
to change the formula.

339
00:13:39,715 --> 00:13:41,749
<i>I always told Dad</i>

340
00:13:41,751 --> 00:13:43,951
capitalism was gonna kill him.

341
00:13:43,953 --> 00:13:45,452
I don't mean to be difficult,

342
00:13:45,454 --> 00:13:48,088
but we can't bring charges
against capitalism.

343
00:13:48,090 --> 00:13:49,657
We're looking for the
person who shot him,

344
00:13:49,659 --> 00:13:52,092
and we're here to find out if
you know anything about it.

345
00:13:52,094 --> 00:13:55,029
You think I killed my dad?

346
00:13:55,031 --> 00:13:57,164
We talked to your
father's accountant.

347
00:13:57,166 --> 00:13:59,867
It's his understanding
you're about to inherit

348
00:13:59,869 --> 00:14:01,135
more than $5 million.

349
00:14:01,137 --> 00:14:02,937
We know that you and
your father were estranged.

350
00:14:02,939 --> 00:14:07,208
We have the e-mails that you
sent to him six months ago.

351
00:14:09,011 --> 00:14:11,445
Yeah, I said some things
I regret,

352
00:14:11,447 --> 00:14:14,014
but like you said,
that was six months ago.

353
00:14:14,016 --> 00:14:16,884
I'm a completely
different person now.

354
00:14:16,886 --> 00:14:19,320
I've found my true self
here at the commune.

355
00:14:19,322 --> 00:14:21,322
Okay, but your previous self

356
00:14:21,324 --> 00:14:24,592
threatened to shoot him
if he ever contacted you again.

357
00:14:24,594 --> 00:14:25,726
Did he?

358
00:14:25,728 --> 00:14:27,061
No.

359
00:14:27,063 --> 00:14:29,530
And I've let all that anger go.

360
00:14:29,532 --> 00:14:32,533
I don't even step
on ants anymore.

361
00:14:32,535 --> 00:14:35,336
There's no way
I would kill my own father.

362
00:14:35,338 --> 00:14:36,704
You wouldn't have to.

363
00:14:36,706 --> 00:14:38,172
You're about to be rich.

364
00:14:38,174 --> 00:14:39,873
There are people you can hire
to do that for you.

365
00:14:39,875 --> 00:14:42,209
People? What people?

366
00:14:42,211 --> 00:14:44,912
The only people I know
are here at the commune,

367
00:14:44,914 --> 00:14:48,515
and all of us were on a vision
hike at Harriman State Park.

368
00:14:48,517 --> 00:14:50,651
You can check with the rangers
there if you want.

369
00:14:50,653 --> 00:14:54,121
Plenty of potential guns
for hire outside these walls.

370
00:14:55,958 --> 00:14:57,224
Even if that were true,

371
00:14:57,226 --> 00:14:59,393
there's no way
I could contact them.

372
00:14:59,395 --> 00:15:01,428
There's no technology allowed
on grounds here.

373
00:15:01,430 --> 00:15:03,998
You had to check your phones
at the door, right?

374
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:09,003
If I were to hire some secret
assassin, I'd have to do it

375
00:15:09,005 --> 00:15:10,938
with smoke signals.

376
00:15:12,775 --> 00:15:14,975
Look, I get it.

377
00:15:14,977 --> 00:15:18,579
A lot of people probably
would kill for $5 million.

378
00:15:18,581 --> 00:15:20,581
But I won't touch a dime.

379
00:15:20,583 --> 00:15:23,550
Growing up, I saw what
my dad's money did to him--

380
00:15:23,552 --> 00:15:27,321
it turned him into this...
soulless machine.

381
00:15:27,323 --> 00:15:30,024
And I was afraid it was gonna
do the same thing to me.

382
00:15:30,026 --> 00:15:32,793
That's why I sold all my
stuff and moved up here.

383
00:15:32,795 --> 00:15:35,195
Whatever inheritance
comes my way,

384
00:15:35,197 --> 00:15:38,165
it is a noose, not a blessing.

385
00:15:38,167 --> 00:15:40,401
I'll give it all away.

386
00:15:46,776 --> 00:15:49,410
What do you think you
do on a vision hike?

387
00:15:49,412 --> 00:15:51,145
Look around, I guess.

388
00:15:51,147 --> 00:15:53,447
I mean, we can call the rangers
at the park that she mentioned,

389
00:15:53,449 --> 00:15:55,316
but I'm guessing
she's telling the truth.

390
00:15:55,318 --> 00:15:58,018
I didn't get a "killer" vibe
in there, did you?

391
00:15:58,020 --> 00:16:00,554
I'm not sure I'm buying
that she wouldn't step on bugs,

392
00:16:00,556 --> 00:16:01,922
but no.

393
00:16:01,924 --> 00:16:04,158
Murdering her father?
I don't see it.

394
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:05,759
I'll take another pass
at the e-mail threats

395
00:16:05,761 --> 00:16:06,927
that George Nix received.

396
00:16:06,929 --> 00:16:08,562
Maybe Sherlock and I
missed something.

397
00:16:09,565 --> 00:16:10,931
Hey, Captain.

398
00:16:10,933 --> 00:16:12,666
Where are you?
I've been calling.

399
00:16:12,668 --> 00:16:15,102
Sorry. We had to check
our phones at the door

400
00:16:15,104 --> 00:16:16,603
when we got to
Marcy Nix's commune.

401
00:16:16,605 --> 00:16:17,638
Something up?

402
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,340
Are you with her right now?

403
00:16:19,342 --> 00:16:21,141
No, but we were a minute ago.

404
00:16:21,143 --> 00:16:24,011
Neither of us likes her for
what happened to her dad. Why?

405
00:16:24,013 --> 00:16:26,146
Because if you were
just with her,

406
00:16:26,148 --> 00:16:29,483
I guess we can also clear her
for burning his house down.

407
00:16:30,953 --> 00:16:32,119
What are you talking about?

408
00:16:32,121 --> 00:16:34,088
Fire started an hour ago.

409
00:16:34,090 --> 00:16:35,856
Fire department
did the best they could,

410
00:16:35,858 --> 00:16:38,492
but the place is a total loss.

411
00:16:38,494 --> 00:16:41,595
Someone really didn't like
George Nix.

412
00:16:41,597 --> 00:16:42,963
When they killed him,

413
00:16:42,965 --> 00:16:44,698
looks like they were
just getting started.

414
00:16:53,558 --> 00:16:56,192
Morning. Got your text.

415
00:16:57,117 --> 00:16:58,983
Fire marshal's report came in?

416
00:16:58,985 --> 00:17:00,652
Initial findings.

417
00:17:00,654 --> 00:17:02,353
Just the thing
to start your day.

418
00:17:02,355 --> 00:17:04,656
Arson at the Nix home
is confirmed.

419
00:17:04,658 --> 00:17:06,691
It was started
with a blend of thermite

420
00:17:06,693 --> 00:17:08,793
and something called napalm B.

421
00:17:08,795 --> 00:17:10,995
Put the two together
and you get a mixture

422
00:17:10,997 --> 00:17:13,831
that burns a lot hotter
than your average house fire.

423
00:17:13,833 --> 00:17:15,800
Explains why the place
went up so fast.

424
00:17:15,802 --> 00:17:17,368
Thermite? Napalm B?

425
00:17:17,370 --> 00:17:19,203
Where does someone
get that stuff?

426
00:17:19,205 --> 00:17:20,471
I had the same question.

427
00:17:20,473 --> 00:17:21,939
Didn't love the answer.

428
00:17:21,941 --> 00:17:23,975
There are recipes online.

429
00:17:23,977 --> 00:17:25,710
Everything you need,
you can find

430
00:17:25,712 --> 00:17:27,311
at your local hardware store.

431
00:17:27,313 --> 00:17:29,213
We can call the
stores in the area,

432
00:17:29,215 --> 00:17:31,683
see if anyone recently bought
all the ingredients at once.

433
00:17:31,685 --> 00:17:33,918
I already got people checking,
but I'm not holding my breath.

434
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,553
Whoever did this was careful.

435
00:17:35,555 --> 00:17:36,721
Yeah.

436
00:17:36,723 --> 00:17:39,590
No prints or DNA recovered
at the scene.

437
00:17:39,592 --> 00:17:41,759
This is interesting, though.

438
00:17:41,761 --> 00:17:45,730
They think that was left
by the guy who set the fire.

439
00:17:45,732 --> 00:17:47,365
Why is that?

440
00:17:47,367 --> 00:17:49,767
The soil composition
is a match for the park

441
00:17:49,769 --> 00:17:51,402
where the reenactment was held.

442
00:17:51,404 --> 00:17:53,104
So it's not just the timing

443
00:17:53,106 --> 00:17:56,174
that makes it look like the same
person that was behind the fire

444
00:17:56,176 --> 00:17:57,775
was behind the murder.

445
00:17:57,777 --> 00:18:00,678
Well, whoever he is, I think
he committed a third crime.

446
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,781
Before he burned George
Nix's house down,

447
00:18:03,783 --> 00:18:05,049
he looted it.

448
00:18:05,051 --> 00:18:06,417
What are we talking about?

449
00:18:06,419 --> 00:18:08,286
Well, antique silver
forged by Paul Revere,

450
00:18:08,288 --> 00:18:09,687
among other things.

451
00:18:09,689 --> 00:18:11,289
I've been reading
up on the victim.

452
00:18:11,291 --> 00:18:13,725
He wasn't just a
Revolutionary War reenactor.

453
00:18:13,727 --> 00:18:17,361
He had a collection of
artifacts from that period.

454
00:18:17,363 --> 00:18:20,031
Early flags, old documents,
that kind of thing.

455
00:18:20,033 --> 00:18:22,400
Including a set of
Paul Revere's silver?

456
00:18:22,402 --> 00:18:23,701
Yeah. He posed next to it

457
00:18:23,703 --> 00:18:24,902
when this interior
design magazine

458
00:18:24,904 --> 00:18:26,170
featured his house last year;

459
00:18:26,172 --> 00:18:27,772
you can see it in the photos.

460
00:18:27,774 --> 00:18:30,942
All this metal, there's none
of it in those photos.

461
00:18:30,944 --> 00:18:32,243
Yeah, and there's nothing

462
00:18:32,245 --> 00:18:33,745
in the report
about the fire department

463
00:18:33,747 --> 00:18:35,113
recovering melted silver,
either.

464
00:18:35,115 --> 00:18:37,648
So this guy could've stolen
a bunch of artifacts,

465
00:18:37,650 --> 00:18:39,317
then torched the place

466
00:18:39,319 --> 00:18:41,719
- to cover his tracks.
- Well, it would be a big score.

467
00:18:41,721 --> 00:18:43,154
I mean, the silver alone's

468
00:18:43,156 --> 00:18:45,356
got to be worth
a quarter of a million dollars.

469
00:18:45,358 --> 00:18:47,191
Okay.

470
00:18:47,193 --> 00:18:50,695
But if all our guy wanted was
to rip off Nix, why kill him?

471
00:18:50,697 --> 00:18:52,697
Why draw that kind of attention?

472
00:18:52,699 --> 00:18:54,632
Well, the community of people

473
00:18:54,634 --> 00:18:56,167
that deal with
this kind of stuff

474
00:18:56,169 --> 00:18:57,802
has got to be pretty small.

475
00:18:57,804 --> 00:19:00,838
Maybe George Nix would've been
able to guess who robbed him.

476
00:19:03,977 --> 00:19:05,409
We're in the middle
of a murder investigation.

477
00:19:05,411 --> 00:19:06,644
Why didn't you wake me up?

478
00:19:06,646 --> 00:19:08,546
I made a pretty big racket
in the kitchen this morning.

479
00:19:08,548 --> 00:19:10,214
I don't think a marching band
could've woken you up.

480
00:19:10,216 --> 00:19:11,215
You were out.

481
00:19:11,217 --> 00:19:12,450
It must be the gabapentin.

482
00:19:12,452 --> 00:19:14,152
And I've only just started
taking a higher dose,

483
00:19:14,154 --> 00:19:15,620
and I'm already
feeling the effects.

484
00:19:15,622 --> 00:19:17,555
The fact that I'm upright is
a credit to our French press.

485
00:19:17,557 --> 00:19:18,790
Well, you're not
gonna recover

486
00:19:18,792 --> 00:19:21,125
from PCS unless you get
some sleep; you need your rest.

487
00:19:21,127 --> 00:19:22,860
I need my work, too.
What's this?

488
00:19:22,862 --> 00:19:25,496
That is the initial arson report
from George Nix's house.

489
00:19:25,498 --> 00:19:26,964
You can read it on the way.

490
00:19:29,369 --> 00:19:31,402
And where are we going?

491
00:19:31,404 --> 00:19:33,604
To find Paul Revere's silver.

492
00:19:38,378 --> 00:19:39,977
Hello. Uh, we're looking
for Detective Mason,

493
00:19:39,979 --> 00:19:42,180
was told he might be
of some assistance.

494
00:19:42,182 --> 00:19:44,182
Sherlock Holmes.

495
00:19:44,184 --> 00:19:47,485
Are you seriously gonna pretend
you don't remember me?

496
00:19:47,487 --> 00:19:48,686
No, I know you.

497
00:19:48,688 --> 00:19:50,254
You used to
have more hair.

498
00:19:50,256 --> 00:19:52,423
You had a lot more hair.
You're Detective Mason.

499
00:19:52,425 --> 00:19:54,325
I helped you solve a case
six years ago,

500
00:19:54,327 --> 00:19:56,260
back when you were just a guy
with a funny name.

501
00:19:56,262 --> 00:19:58,696
Yes, of course. That poor man
with a cleaver lodged in his...

502
00:19:58,698 --> 00:19:59,697
Yeah.

503
00:19:59,699 --> 00:20:01,032
You were still
working with me

504
00:20:01,034 --> 00:20:02,600
in "another capacity"
at the time.

505
00:20:02,602 --> 00:20:04,669
Oh, you were still
in the habit of ditching me.

506
00:20:04,671 --> 00:20:06,137
Mm-hmm.

507
00:20:06,139 --> 00:20:08,739
I recall your presence
but not your assistance.

508
00:20:08,741 --> 00:20:10,374
You and me-- we had something.

509
00:20:10,376 --> 00:20:13,511
I thought teaming with you
was the start of something big.

510
00:20:13,513 --> 00:20:15,746
But once we closed the case,
you dumped me.

511
00:20:15,748 --> 00:20:16,914
Paired up with Marcus Bell

512
00:20:16,916 --> 00:20:18,416
and helped make him a star.

513
00:20:18,418 --> 00:20:20,117
I made no one a star.
Marcus Bell is a fine detective

514
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,152
in his own right.

515
00:20:21,154 --> 00:20:22,353
And I'm not?

516
00:20:22,355 --> 00:20:23,754
You are the NYPD's

517
00:20:23,756 --> 00:20:26,958
foremost expert when it comes
to stolen historical artifacts.

518
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,493
At least that's what
we've been told.

519
00:20:29,495 --> 00:20:31,395
Can you help us?

520
00:20:31,397 --> 00:20:33,664
Follow me.

521
00:20:39,205 --> 00:20:41,239
So this guy, George Nix,
somebody burned his house down

522
00:20:41,241 --> 00:20:42,940
- and killed him?
- Not in that order,

523
00:20:42,942 --> 00:20:44,342
but yes.
We think they were after

524
00:20:44,344 --> 00:20:46,510
his Revolutionary War
memorabilia.

525
00:20:46,512 --> 00:20:48,512
The silver is missing
and there's no way to know

526
00:20:48,514 --> 00:20:52,083
if the fabric and paper
items really burned up

527
00:20:52,085 --> 00:20:53,618
or if they were taken.

528
00:20:53,620 --> 00:20:56,020
There's only a few places you
can really move stuff like that.

529
00:20:56,022 --> 00:20:58,489
So, uh... I'll help you.

530
00:20:58,491 --> 00:20:59,891
But, uh...

531
00:20:59,893 --> 00:21:02,159
you're gonna help me, too.

532
00:21:02,161 --> 00:21:03,594
How so?

533
00:21:03,596 --> 00:21:04,929
Six months ago,

534
00:21:04,931 --> 00:21:08,499
an 1860 Old Tom Morris
long-nose golf club

535
00:21:08,501 --> 00:21:10,101
was stolen from the home
of a woman

536
00:21:10,103 --> 00:21:12,069
by the name of
Gertrude Hardcastle.

537
00:21:12,071 --> 00:21:13,271
Worth a hundred grand.

538
00:21:13,273 --> 00:21:15,473
The thieves broke in
through the first floor window.

539
00:21:15,475 --> 00:21:16,908
As you can see,
they knocked over

540
00:21:16,910 --> 00:21:18,109
a bookcase
when they went in.

541
00:21:18,111 --> 00:21:19,443
They disappeared
with the club,

542
00:21:19,445 --> 00:21:20,478
nobody's seen 'em since.

543
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:21,812
Now, if you

544
00:21:21,814 --> 00:21:23,547
can help me find it...
It's here.

545
00:21:23,549 --> 00:21:25,016
- What?
- It's right here.

546
00:21:25,018 --> 00:21:26,550
There was no burglary.

547
00:21:26,552 --> 00:21:28,119
It wasn't stolen.

548
00:21:28,121 --> 00:21:30,721
The golf club is in the
umbrella stand

549
00:21:30,723 --> 00:21:33,090
in Mrs. Hardcastle's
foyer.

550
00:21:33,092 --> 00:21:35,559
Note the gouge marks on
the front leg of the bookcase.

551
00:21:35,561 --> 00:21:37,728
They were made by the
Staffordshire Terrier

552
00:21:37,730 --> 00:21:38,996
which appears in several
of these photographs.

553
00:21:38,998 --> 00:21:40,097
It's a breed known
for chewing.

554
00:21:40,099 --> 00:21:41,532
The dog gnawed
at the bookcase

555
00:21:41,534 --> 00:21:43,301
until it fell over,
breaking the window.

556
00:21:43,303 --> 00:21:44,769
That tripped the alarm.

557
00:21:44,771 --> 00:21:45,770
- How did you...?
- I submit

558
00:21:45,772 --> 00:21:46,904
the golf club
is in the umbrella stand

559
00:21:46,906 --> 00:21:48,306
because Mrs. Hardcastle
put it there.

560
00:21:48,308 --> 00:21:50,107
She was confused.

561
00:21:50,109 --> 00:21:52,376
When she couldn't find it
in the wake of the "break-in,"

562
00:21:52,378 --> 00:21:53,811
she assumed it'd
been stolen.

563
00:21:53,813 --> 00:21:56,414
Case closed.

564
00:22:01,487 --> 00:22:04,455
I'll make some calls for you,
see if anybody's trying to sell

565
00:22:04,457 --> 00:22:07,058
any items that have to do
with the Revolutionary War.

566
00:22:07,060 --> 00:22:08,826
Great. We look forward
to hearing from you.

567
00:22:14,867 --> 00:22:16,067
Chief Cruz?

568
00:22:16,069 --> 00:22:18,669
Thanks for coming in.

569
00:22:18,671 --> 00:22:21,472
I'm Marcus Bell. This is
Sherlock Holmes, Joan Watson.

570
00:22:21,474 --> 00:22:25,943
The folks at Southside Pawn
thought you might be able

571
00:22:25,945 --> 00:22:28,346
to shed some light on
a few things for us.

572
00:22:28,348 --> 00:22:29,814
They said you called
them about...

573
00:22:29,816 --> 00:22:32,717
The stuff I stole
from that guy's house.

574
00:22:32,719 --> 00:22:34,518
I'm sorry, okay?

575
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,587
All right? I-I don't know
what I was thinking.

576
00:22:36,589 --> 00:22:38,255
But I'll give it all back.

577
00:22:38,257 --> 00:22:40,424
Very generous of you. But
how are you gonna give back

578
00:22:40,426 --> 00:22:41,525
George Nix's life?

579
00:22:41,527 --> 00:22:42,994
What are you talking about?

580
00:22:42,996 --> 00:22:44,729
Nobody died in that fire.

581
00:22:44,731 --> 00:22:46,130
George Nix
was shot and killed

582
00:22:46,132 --> 00:22:48,899
during a Revolutionary
War reenactment

583
00:22:48,901 --> 00:22:50,801
a few hours before it started.

584
00:22:50,803 --> 00:22:53,137
We're guessing it was
to divert our attention.

585
00:22:53,139 --> 00:22:56,407
Get us looking one place while
you set a fire at another.

586
00:22:56,409 --> 00:22:57,942
You think that I set that blaze?

587
00:22:57,944 --> 00:22:59,310
Last night,
you were on

588
00:22:59,312 --> 00:23:00,711
one of the trucks
that put out the fire

589
00:23:00,713 --> 00:23:02,346
at Mr. Nix's mansion.

590
00:23:02,348 --> 00:23:04,281
When we started looking
into you, we realized

591
00:23:04,283 --> 00:23:06,083
it was the second time
you'd been on a call

592
00:23:06,085 --> 00:23:07,284
to his address.

593
00:23:07,286 --> 00:23:08,886
Earlier last year,

594
00:23:08,888 --> 00:23:10,621
the electrical panel
at the house shorted out

595
00:23:10,623 --> 00:23:11,856
and started smoking.

596
00:23:11,858 --> 00:23:13,424
Your crew got the call
to check it out.

597
00:23:13,426 --> 00:23:14,325
We're guessing that's when

598
00:23:14,327 --> 00:23:16,060
you saw his
collection.

599
00:23:16,062 --> 00:23:18,029
We know whoever torched
the place used a mixture

600
00:23:18,031 --> 00:23:19,196
of thermite and napalm B.

601
00:23:19,198 --> 00:23:20,998
Yeah? So?

602
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:22,700
So this wasn't a gas can
and matches.

603
00:23:22,702 --> 00:23:24,735
The guy who did it
had some expertise.

604
00:23:24,737 --> 00:23:27,471
You wouldn't be
the first in your profession

605
00:23:27,473 --> 00:23:29,840
to moonlight as an arsonist.

606
00:23:29,842 --> 00:23:32,810
After we got the blaze
under control last night,

607
00:23:32,812 --> 00:23:36,147
I went inside
to search the place.

608
00:23:36,149 --> 00:23:41,252
Okay? I-I... I found a
bunch of, uh, antique silver

609
00:23:41,254 --> 00:23:44,522
in the living room, and a fire
safe in one of the closets,

610
00:23:44,524 --> 00:23:46,924
and I figured there might
be some money in the safe,

611
00:23:46,926 --> 00:23:48,626
and I could sell the silver,

612
00:23:48,628 --> 00:23:51,095
so I packed
my gear with it,

613
00:23:51,097 --> 00:23:52,763
and I took it
with me outside.

614
00:23:52,765 --> 00:23:54,832
It-it was, like, y-you know,
spur of the moment.

615
00:23:54,834 --> 00:23:57,568
I saw it, I grabbed it,
and that was it.

616
00:23:57,570 --> 00:23:59,437
I didn't start the fire.

617
00:23:59,439 --> 00:24:01,372
And I sure as hell
didn't kill anyone.

618
00:24:02,708 --> 00:24:06,944
If you let me go to my car,
I can prove it.

619
00:24:09,982 --> 00:24:11,248
See?

620
00:24:11,250 --> 00:24:12,850
The silver is ruined.

621
00:24:12,852 --> 00:24:14,952
There was no money in the safe,
just some old documents,

622
00:24:14,954 --> 00:24:16,153
and they couldn't
take the heat.

623
00:24:16,155 --> 00:24:18,722
Now, why would I
plan a big heist,

624
00:24:18,724 --> 00:24:21,492
and then leave all the stuff
that I wanted to steal

625
00:24:21,494 --> 00:24:24,095
inside the house
while it burned?

626
00:24:24,097 --> 00:24:25,796
And you said you can account
for your whereabouts

627
00:24:25,798 --> 00:24:27,798
between 9:00 and
10:00 a.m. yesterday?

628
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:29,800
Yeah. I was at
the station all day.

629
00:24:29,802 --> 00:24:31,502
All the guys will tell you.

630
00:24:31,504 --> 00:24:33,070
And we got cameras there, too.

631
00:24:33,072 --> 00:24:35,439
I mean, you believe me now?

632
00:24:35,441 --> 00:24:36,373
I do.

633
00:24:36,375 --> 00:24:38,042
But I wish I didn't.

634
00:24:38,044 --> 00:24:40,845
Pretty sure we're back
to square one with the murder.

635
00:24:54,961 --> 00:24:56,994
What is that smell?

636
00:24:56,996 --> 00:24:58,362
Progress.

637
00:24:58,364 --> 00:25:00,865
Ugh. I thought you went to bed.

638
00:25:00,867 --> 00:25:02,900
I did. I slept soundly.

639
00:25:02,902 --> 00:25:04,502
And then I didn't.

640
00:25:04,504 --> 00:25:06,036
The medication continues
to wreak havoc

641
00:25:06,038 --> 00:25:07,505
with my circadian rhythms.

642
00:25:07,507 --> 00:25:09,673
I thought I'd put
my wakefulness to good use.

643
00:25:09,675 --> 00:25:11,709
Okay. By doing what, exactly?

644
00:25:11,711 --> 00:25:13,544
Rectifying
an embarrassing oversight.

645
00:25:13,546 --> 00:25:15,746
We missed a glaringly
obvious deduction yesterday.

646
00:25:15,748 --> 00:25:17,381
I'm going to blame
the gabapentin.

647
00:25:17,383 --> 00:25:19,250
I'm not sure
what your excuse is.

648
00:25:19,252 --> 00:25:21,952
Okay, just tell me
what we missed.

649
00:25:21,954 --> 00:25:24,522
You'll recall the accelerant
used to torch George Nix's home

650
00:25:24,524 --> 00:25:27,558
was a mixture of thermite
and napalm B, which would burn

651
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,793
at about a thousand degrees
hotter than necessary

652
00:25:29,795 --> 00:25:30,995
to burn down a house

653
00:25:30,997 --> 00:25:32,897
made mostly
of wood and plaster.

654
00:25:32,899 --> 00:25:34,064
So?

655
00:25:34,066 --> 00:25:35,599
So what if the house

656
00:25:35,601 --> 00:25:37,268
wasn't the arsonist's
true target?

657
00:25:37,270 --> 00:25:39,170
What if they wanted
to destroy something

658
00:25:39,172 --> 00:25:41,205
far more resistant
to great heat?

659
00:25:41,207 --> 00:25:44,074
The safe the fire
chief took from the wreckage.

660
00:25:44,076 --> 00:25:45,509
You took it
from the property room?

661
00:25:45,511 --> 00:25:48,012
Along with the remains
of the documents it contained.

662
00:25:48,014 --> 00:25:49,113
It's top-of-the-line.

663
00:25:49,115 --> 00:25:50,114
It's rated to survive

664
00:25:50,116 --> 00:25:51,649
a heated environment in excess

665
00:25:51,651 --> 00:25:53,284
of 1,830 degrees Fahrenheit.

666
00:25:53,286 --> 00:25:56,687
And yet, it was no match
for the accelerant used.

667
00:25:56,689 --> 00:25:59,456
You'll recall the fire chief
was quite disappointed

668
00:25:59,458 --> 00:26:00,691
the contents
were ruined.

669
00:26:00,693 --> 00:26:01,792
So it wasn't a robbery,

670
00:26:01,794 --> 00:26:03,794
it was a demolition.

671
00:26:03,796 --> 00:26:05,563
Well, an attempted one, anyway.

672
00:26:05,565 --> 00:26:07,298
Well, it looks
like it worked, to me.

673
00:26:07,300 --> 00:26:09,200
Only temporarily.

674
00:26:09,202 --> 00:26:10,401
What do you mean?

675
00:26:10,403 --> 00:26:11,435
The smell. Hmm?

676
00:26:11,437 --> 00:26:12,570
During the Second World War,

677
00:26:12,572 --> 00:26:13,804
my countrymen developed a method

678
00:26:13,806 --> 00:26:16,807
to restore
burnt documents recovered

679
00:26:16,809 --> 00:26:18,375
from bombed out enemy bases.

680
00:26:18,377 --> 00:26:20,978
It begins with a 25% solution
of chloral hydrate.

681
00:26:20,980 --> 00:26:22,313
Okay-- well, I don't
care what it is,

682
00:26:22,315 --> 00:26:23,948
I just... I want it to stop.

683
00:26:23,950 --> 00:26:26,250
I mean, you really think reading
a bunch of burnt documents

684
00:26:26,252 --> 00:26:27,384
is gonna help?

685
00:26:27,386 --> 00:26:28,452
Oh, it already has.

686
00:26:28,454 --> 00:26:29,653
I now have
a very good idea

687
00:26:29,655 --> 00:26:31,522
who killed George Nix.

688
00:26:31,524 --> 00:26:33,123
And why.

689
00:26:41,970 --> 00:26:44,747
You think George Nix was killed
and his house got burned down

690
00:26:44,749 --> 00:26:47,359
because the killer wanted
to destroy some autographs?

691
00:26:47,360 --> 00:26:48,960
That's all that was in the
safe, and the safe seems

692
00:26:48,962 --> 00:26:50,361
to have been the real target.

693
00:26:50,363 --> 00:26:52,663
What's so special
about these autographs?

694
00:26:52,665 --> 00:26:53,965
They're Button Gwinnetts.

695
00:26:53,967 --> 00:26:55,700
But who the hell
is Button Gwinnett?

696
00:26:55,702 --> 00:26:57,368
It sounds like something
out of a kid's book?

697
00:26:57,370 --> 00:27:00,104
Button Gwinnett was the
provisional president

698
00:27:00,106 --> 00:27:01,973
of colonial
Georgia, and he was

699
00:27:01,975 --> 00:27:04,976
one of the signers of the
Declaration of Independence.

700
00:27:04,978 --> 00:27:08,846
He also happens to have the most
valuable signature on Earth.

701
00:27:08,848 --> 00:27:10,448
Some guy I've never
even heard of

702
00:27:10,450 --> 00:27:12,650
has the most valuable
signature on Earth?

703
00:27:12,652 --> 00:27:13,985
The last Gwinnett
sold at auction

704
00:27:13,987 --> 00:27:16,487
went for $800,000.

705
00:27:16,489 --> 00:27:18,322
56 men signed

706
00:27:18,324 --> 00:27:19,957
the Declaration of Independence.

707
00:27:19,959 --> 00:27:22,026
The complete set of their
signatures is the holy grail

708
00:27:22,028 --> 00:27:23,561
for autograph hounds.

709
00:27:23,563 --> 00:27:25,463
Gwinnett's is the rarest
of the bunch.

710
00:27:25,465 --> 00:27:28,966
He was fairly obscure,
died shortly after the war.

711
00:27:28,968 --> 00:27:31,168
There are only 51 authenticated
Gwinnett signatures.

712
00:27:31,170 --> 00:27:32,904
That's why they're worth
so much.

713
00:27:32,906 --> 00:27:35,506
More valuable
than Churchill, Beethoven.

714
00:27:35,508 --> 00:27:37,475
Even Shakespeare.

715
00:27:37,477 --> 00:27:40,344
The fire loss investigator from
George Nix's insurance company

716
00:27:40,346 --> 00:27:42,813
sent us a list
of all the insured artifacts

717
00:27:42,815 --> 00:27:45,016
that were inside the house
when it burned down.

718
00:27:45,018 --> 00:27:47,952
There wasn't anything
about Button Gwinnett.

719
00:27:47,954 --> 00:27:49,387
We think that George
is making a run

720
00:27:49,389 --> 00:27:51,222
on cornering the market
for these autographs.

721
00:27:51,224 --> 00:27:53,724
If we're right, he would not
have wanted anyone to know.

722
00:27:53,726 --> 00:27:56,727
Sellers would jack up the prices
on any he'd want to buy.

723
00:27:56,729 --> 00:27:58,896
Given the rarity
of a genuine Gwinnett,

724
00:27:58,898 --> 00:28:01,232
it's quite possible that some
of the signatures in his trove

725
00:28:01,234 --> 00:28:04,468
were ill-gotten
and, thus, uninsurable.

726
00:28:04,470 --> 00:28:05,736
Well, let's say you're right.

727
00:28:05,738 --> 00:28:08,038
That this was all
about these signatures.

728
00:28:08,039 --> 00:28:09,672
Why burn them up?

729
00:28:09,673 --> 00:28:11,072
If they're so valuable,

730
00:28:11,074 --> 00:28:13,608
it doesn't make any sense
to destroy them.

731
00:28:13,610 --> 00:28:15,276
You're right, it does not.

732
00:28:15,278 --> 00:28:19,214
Unless of course, you've already
got a few of your own.

733
00:28:19,216 --> 00:28:20,615
I want to make it clear
right up front:

734
00:28:20,617 --> 00:28:23,151
my client, Mr. Chambers,
has no legal obligation

735
00:28:23,153 --> 00:28:25,687
to be here. If,
at any point,

736
00:28:25,689 --> 00:28:28,590
I deem it appropriate
to cut this interview short,

737
00:28:28,592 --> 00:28:30,291
that is exactly
what will happen.

738
00:28:30,293 --> 00:28:32,794
Okay. I apologize for David.

739
00:28:32,796 --> 00:28:34,462
I made my money
dealing in art.

740
00:28:34,464 --> 00:28:35,797
It's dog-eat-dog,

741
00:28:35,799 --> 00:28:37,699
so I've always
chosen my attorneys

742
00:28:37,701 --> 00:28:41,269
for their pugnaciousness.

743
00:28:41,271 --> 00:28:42,904
Truth is, it's--
oh, it's a treat,

744
00:28:42,906 --> 00:28:46,141
being inside the famous
11th precinct.

745
00:28:46,143 --> 00:28:48,610
You know, this structure dates
back to 1907.

746
00:28:48,612 --> 00:28:50,044
Perhaps you'd enjoy
the holding cell downstairs.

747
00:28:50,046 --> 00:28:52,480
It's original to the building.

748
00:28:52,482 --> 00:28:54,549
Why are we here, Detective?

749
00:28:54,551 --> 00:28:56,484
A man named George Nix

750
00:28:56,486 --> 00:28:59,754
was gunned down during a battle
reenactment two days ago.

751
00:28:59,756 --> 00:29:04,092
Well, my day just got
a lot more interesting.

752
00:29:04,094 --> 00:29:05,927
You're accusing me of murder?

753
00:29:05,929 --> 00:29:07,796
And arson.

754
00:29:07,798 --> 00:29:10,832
George's house was torched a
few hours after he was killed.

755
00:29:10,834 --> 00:29:14,769
And you imagine
Mr. Chambers was involved, why?

756
00:29:14,771 --> 00:29:16,805
We have reason to believe
he was on the battlefield

757
00:29:16,807 --> 00:29:18,306
when Mr. Nix was shot.

758
00:29:18,308 --> 00:29:19,874
- Based on what?
- Well, I was.

759
00:29:21,411 --> 00:29:23,044
I never miss a battle.

760
00:29:23,046 --> 00:29:26,648
Oh, the pageantry,
the devotion to detail.

761
00:29:26,650 --> 00:29:28,883
Oh, it's just...
always a thrill.

762
00:29:30,420 --> 00:29:32,954
Of course, I'm not the only one
that feels that way.

763
00:29:32,956 --> 00:29:36,391
There were hundreds of
gun-toting reenactors there.

764
00:29:36,393 --> 00:29:38,993
Yes, but none of them own
the second-largest collection

765
00:29:38,995 --> 00:29:41,396
of Button Gwinnett
signatures in the world.

766
00:29:41,398 --> 00:29:43,131
- You do.
- Your collection tripled in value

767
00:29:43,133 --> 00:29:44,365
when George's
Gwinnetts

768
00:29:44,367 --> 00:29:46,134
went up in flames.

769
00:29:46,136 --> 00:29:47,435
Oh.

770
00:29:47,437 --> 00:29:49,637
Oh, that is
the last thing I wanted.

771
00:29:49,639 --> 00:29:50,839
Explain that.

772
00:29:50,841 --> 00:29:52,006
I was negotiating

773
00:29:52,008 --> 00:29:55,143
to buy the trove
you say I destroyed.

774
00:29:55,145 --> 00:29:58,146
I'd been trying to acquire
George's Gwinnetts for years.

775
00:29:58,148 --> 00:30:00,148
He always turned me down.

776
00:30:00,150 --> 00:30:03,985
But that was before his, uh, gym
franchisees started suing him.

777
00:30:03,987 --> 00:30:05,920
He called me
last month

778
00:30:05,922 --> 00:30:07,188
and asked if I was
still interested

779
00:30:07,190 --> 00:30:09,257
in taking his collection
off his hands.

780
00:30:09,259 --> 00:30:10,558
Well, even
if that's true,

781
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:11,993
you obviously never
came to terms,

782
00:30:11,995 --> 00:30:13,361
or they wouldn't have
been in his safe

783
00:30:13,363 --> 00:30:14,829
when his house burned down.

784
00:30:14,831 --> 00:30:16,798
So far, you've convinced
me of two things:

785
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,934
one, you knew about his secret
collection of Button Gwinnetts,

786
00:30:19,936 --> 00:30:23,271
and secondly,
you value your own very highly.

787
00:30:23,273 --> 00:30:25,506
Both of those things
are entirely consistent

788
00:30:25,508 --> 00:30:30,245
with the motive
they're ascribing to you.

789
00:30:30,247 --> 00:30:31,880
Let me explain something.

790
00:30:31,882 --> 00:30:34,015
Even if George told me
that he wouldn't sell,

791
00:30:34,017 --> 00:30:38,086
I would never wipe out
historical documents.

792
00:30:38,088 --> 00:30:41,022
I don't care how much money
we're talking about. Never.

793
00:30:41,024 --> 00:30:43,491
Now, the documents
in George's collection help

794
00:30:43,493 --> 00:30:44,726
tell the story of America.

795
00:30:44,728 --> 00:30:48,263
Helped shape the land
and its people.

796
00:30:48,265 --> 00:30:51,232
They're sacred relics
as far as I'm concerned.

797
00:30:54,170 --> 00:30:55,837
Now, you-you can have
my fingerprints,

798
00:30:55,839 --> 00:30:57,906
my DNA, whatever you want.

799
00:30:57,908 --> 00:31:00,108
You'll see.

800
00:31:00,110 --> 00:31:02,810
I'm quite innocent.

801
00:31:05,815 --> 00:31:07,382
Doctor.

802
00:31:07,384 --> 00:31:08,549
Sally didn't tell me

803
00:31:08,551 --> 00:31:09,817
you were in here.

804
00:31:09,819 --> 00:31:11,352
Sally didn't hear
me come in.

805
00:31:11,354 --> 00:31:12,887
When I called on the phone,

806
00:31:12,889 --> 00:31:14,656
she said you didn't have
an opening till Monday.

807
00:31:14,658 --> 00:31:15,823
Doesn't work for me.

808
00:31:15,825 --> 00:31:17,458
What can I do for you, Sherlock?

809
00:31:17,460 --> 00:31:19,794
Since you put me on the
higher dose of gabapentin,

810
00:31:19,796 --> 00:31:22,363
my sleep patterns
have been troublesome

811
00:31:22,365 --> 00:31:25,366
and my waking hours have been
more and more lethargic.

812
00:31:25,368 --> 00:31:26,968
I told you,
it'll make you drowsy.

813
00:31:26,970 --> 00:31:29,504
Unacceptable. There's got to be
something else.

814
00:31:29,506 --> 00:31:31,639
There's got to be another way
to treat my condition.

815
00:31:31,641 --> 00:31:32,740
There is.

816
00:31:32,742 --> 00:31:34,142
Rest.

817
00:31:34,144 --> 00:31:35,710
I know it's a four-letter word
to you.

818
00:31:35,712 --> 00:31:36,577
It's a four-letter word
to everyone.

819
00:31:36,579 --> 00:31:37,745
You know
what I mean.

820
00:31:37,747 --> 00:31:39,047
The first time we met,
I told you

821
00:31:39,049 --> 00:31:40,315
you should get out of town.

822
00:31:40,317 --> 00:31:41,649
Go somewhere quiet
for a few weeks,

823
00:31:41,651 --> 00:31:42,817
a few months.

824
00:31:42,819 --> 00:31:44,352
Vermont,
New Hampshire.

825
00:31:44,354 --> 00:31:46,955
Sit in a chair. Stare at
the mountains or something.

826
00:31:46,957 --> 00:31:49,090
My work is important to me.

827
00:31:49,092 --> 00:31:51,326
I know it is,
but you have to ask yourself,

828
00:31:51,328 --> 00:31:53,227
do you want to get by
or do you want to get better?

829
00:31:53,229 --> 00:31:56,331
If you want to get by, we can
try some different medications,

830
00:31:56,333 --> 00:31:58,666
maybe put you
on a course of acupuncture.

831
00:31:58,668 --> 00:32:00,468
But if you want to get better,

832
00:32:00,470 --> 00:32:03,771
the best option
is a very long vacation.

833
00:32:03,773 --> 00:32:06,808
No work. Just rest.

834
00:32:11,047 --> 00:32:13,314
Hey. How'd it go
with Dr. Hanson?

835
00:32:13,316 --> 00:32:14,816
What are you doing?

836
00:32:14,818 --> 00:32:18,519
You got my text
about Paul Chambers, right?

837
00:32:18,521 --> 00:32:22,023
You and Marcus don't think
he's our killer/arsonist.

838
00:32:22,025 --> 00:32:25,159
No, we don't, but something
he said got me thinking.

839
00:32:25,161 --> 00:32:27,695
What if it's not the signatures
on the documents

840
00:32:27,697 --> 00:32:30,231
that are important,
but the documents themselves?

841
00:32:30,233 --> 00:32:31,432
I've been reading
through them

842
00:32:31,434 --> 00:32:32,800
the last few hours.

843
00:32:32,802 --> 00:32:34,469
So, there's a couple
of personal letters,

844
00:32:34,471 --> 00:32:36,738
there's a bill of sale
for a wagon wheel,

845
00:32:36,740 --> 00:32:38,406
and then there's
two proclamations

846
00:32:38,408 --> 00:32:42,877
about wheat tariffs,
but then there is this.

847
00:32:46,850 --> 00:32:49,450
"Land office warrant
number 3743.

848
00:32:49,452 --> 00:32:51,652
"This grant hereby issued

849
00:32:51,654 --> 00:32:54,322
March 28, 1777."
Yada, yada, yada,

850
00:32:54,324 --> 00:32:57,558
"Signed Button Gwinnett,
Provisional President."

851
00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:59,093
It's a bounty land grant.

852
00:32:59,095 --> 00:33:00,762
They're contracts
that promise land to any man

853
00:33:00,764 --> 00:33:02,630
who agreed to fight
in the American Revolution.

854
00:33:02,632 --> 00:33:06,567
They're basically recruiting
tools for the Continental Army.

855
00:33:06,569 --> 00:33:07,835
You fight for our new country,

856
00:33:07,837 --> 00:33:09,170
we'll let you keep
a piece of it.

857
00:33:09,172 --> 00:33:12,173
So, this grant promised
a large tract in Georgia

858
00:33:12,175 --> 00:33:13,941
to a man named Abner Fulham.

859
00:33:13,943 --> 00:33:15,643
But the land was stolen

860
00:33:15,645 --> 00:33:18,246
during something called
the Yazoo land scandal.

861
00:33:18,248 --> 00:33:20,248
That was 1789, correct?

862
00:33:20,250 --> 00:33:22,517
I had to look it up, but yeah.

863
00:33:22,519 --> 00:33:26,120
So, Abner Fulham and a bunch of
other people had their land sold

864
00:33:26,122 --> 00:33:28,523
right out from under them
by Georgia's governor.

865
00:33:28,525 --> 00:33:30,525
Fast-forward to today.

866
00:33:30,527 --> 00:33:32,293
Abner's descendants are suing

867
00:33:32,295 --> 00:33:34,495
to reclaim what they say
is rightfully theirs.

868
00:33:34,497 --> 00:33:36,364
So, who owns the land now?

869
00:33:36,366 --> 00:33:39,567
A developer in Queens
named Chris Holland.

870
00:33:39,569 --> 00:33:41,302
I know that name.

871
00:33:41,304 --> 00:33:43,371
Yeah, you and the captain
spoke to him at the park

872
00:33:43,373 --> 00:33:44,572
the other day.

873
00:33:44,574 --> 00:33:45,540
He was one of the reenactors.

874
00:33:45,542 --> 00:33:46,808
<i>A witness.</i>

875
00:33:46,810 --> 00:33:48,509
<i>If my memory serves,</i>

876
00:33:48,511 --> 00:33:51,312
he had several vague leads,
none of which panned out.

877
00:33:51,314 --> 00:33:54,515
I'm sure he was willing
to say anything to seem helpful.

878
00:33:54,517 --> 00:33:57,452
He didn't want you to figure out
he had just killed George Nix.

879
00:34:02,358 --> 00:34:03,558
Copy that, I'll let 'em know.

880
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:04,725
Copy.

881
00:34:08,965 --> 00:34:10,465
What the hell is going on?

882
00:34:10,467 --> 00:34:12,733
Chris, I tried calling you.
They showed up an hour ago

883
00:34:12,735 --> 00:34:15,503
and they just started
searching everything.

884
00:34:15,505 --> 00:34:18,106
We're looking for the gun
you used to murder George Nix.

885
00:34:18,108 --> 00:34:19,974
You want to see the warrant?

886
00:34:19,976 --> 00:34:21,642
It's right here.

887
00:34:21,644 --> 00:34:23,277
You think I killed
that guy in the park?

888
00:34:23,279 --> 00:34:25,813
Are you crazy?
I told you what I saw.

889
00:34:25,815 --> 00:34:27,315
You told me a story.

890
00:34:27,317 --> 00:34:29,050
You neglected to mention
your connection to the victim.

891
00:34:29,052 --> 00:34:30,918
You own the deed
to a tract of land

892
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:32,186
near Augusta,
Georgia, that sits

893
00:34:32,188 --> 00:34:33,521
on top of a lot
of natural gas.

894
00:34:33,523 --> 00:34:35,256
You might be able
to drill for it

895
00:34:35,258 --> 00:34:37,125
if the people who
actually own the land

896
00:34:37,127 --> 00:34:38,559
lose their suit against you.

897
00:34:38,561 --> 00:34:40,361
Normally a claim so old

898
00:34:40,363 --> 00:34:42,029
would be tossed out of court
as specious,

899
00:34:42,031 --> 00:34:44,499
but there's plenty of evidence
in this case,

900
00:34:44,501 --> 00:34:47,468
as I'm sure your real estate
attorneys discovered.

901
00:34:47,470 --> 00:34:48,769
After they told you

902
00:34:48,771 --> 00:34:49,971
about the bounty land grant

903
00:34:49,973 --> 00:34:51,239
that George Nix
acquired at auction,

904
00:34:51,241 --> 00:34:53,207
you tried to buy it from him.

905
00:34:53,209 --> 00:34:55,042
I bet he would've sold it
to you if he knew

906
00:34:55,044 --> 00:34:57,645
the counteroffer was going to be
a bullet to his chest.

907
00:34:57,647 --> 00:34:59,914
Chris, say something.

908
00:34:59,916 --> 00:35:02,183
- Look, I already did. This is crazy.
- No.

909
00:35:02,185 --> 00:35:04,452
Your phone records show
you made multiple calls

910
00:35:04,454 --> 00:35:06,120
to Nix two weeks ago.

911
00:35:06,122 --> 00:35:08,623
And according to your most
recent credit card statement,

912
00:35:08,625 --> 00:35:10,658
you bought a rifle ten days ago.

913
00:35:10,660 --> 00:35:12,994
You had it custom-fitted
with a wooden stock

914
00:35:12,996 --> 00:35:15,129
so it would look
like the other colonial muskets

915
00:35:15,131 --> 00:35:16,597
that were gonna be at the park.

916
00:35:16,599 --> 00:35:18,633
Honey...
Don't.

917
00:35:18,635 --> 00:35:20,535
So, if I'm hearing you right,

918
00:35:20,537 --> 00:35:24,138
I am guilty of using my phone
and buying a gun.

919
00:35:24,140 --> 00:35:27,041
Last time I checked, both
those things are legal.

920
00:35:27,043 --> 00:35:30,244
You don't have any proof
and you're not gonna find any.

921
00:35:30,246 --> 00:35:32,847
We'll see about that.

922
00:35:40,223 --> 00:35:43,224
No fun when the murderer
is right, is it?

923
00:35:56,271 --> 00:35:58,635
This is infuriating.
There's no doubt in my mind

924
00:35:58,735 --> 00:36:00,168
that Chris Holland
killed George Nix

925
00:36:00,170 --> 00:36:01,469
and then burned down his house.

926
00:36:01,471 --> 00:36:03,004
I keep going back to the gun.

927
00:36:03,006 --> 00:36:04,906
The .308 that
he must have retrofitted

928
00:36:04,908 --> 00:36:06,641
to look like a colonial musket.

929
00:36:06,643 --> 00:36:08,076
Me, too.

930
00:36:08,078 --> 00:36:10,011
Didn't turn up at his house
or his office.

931
00:36:10,013 --> 00:36:11,980
It wasn't left
on the battlefield.

932
00:36:11,982 --> 00:36:14,449
I mean, half the NYPD
combed over that park.

933
00:36:14,451 --> 00:36:16,084
It would've been found.

934
00:36:16,086 --> 00:36:18,720
He must've taken it somewhere
and then chucked it,

935
00:36:18,722 --> 00:36:20,021
but how did he get it away

936
00:36:20,023 --> 00:36:21,689
from the scene in
the first place?

937
00:36:21,691 --> 00:36:23,892
When you and the
captain spoke to him,

938
00:36:23,894 --> 00:36:26,160
he had a different gun.
A fake one, right?

939
00:36:26,162 --> 00:36:27,962
He had a very
small window

940
00:36:27,964 --> 00:36:29,330
to make the swap.

941
00:36:29,332 --> 00:36:33,334
Perhaps the when
will tell us the where.

942
00:36:33,336 --> 00:36:38,306
The first 911 call regarding
the shooting was at 8:52 a.m.

943
00:36:38,308 --> 00:36:40,975
Officers arrived on the scene
9:04. The responding officers

944
00:36:40,977 --> 00:36:43,244
took names of all the men
who were near George Nix

945
00:36:43,246 --> 00:36:45,280
when he died.

946
00:36:45,282 --> 00:36:47,115
Chris Holland
was on that list.

947
00:36:47,117 --> 00:36:48,149
That gives him
very little time

948
00:36:48,151 --> 00:36:49,717
to dispose of the murder weapon

949
00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,186
and replace it
with a fake musket.

950
00:36:52,188 --> 00:36:54,556
What about the portable toilets?

951
00:36:54,558 --> 00:36:56,291
There are a bunch
on the edge of the park.

952
00:36:56,293 --> 00:36:57,892
I mean, I know the police
checked them,

953
00:36:57,894 --> 00:36:59,460
but how closely do you think
they really looked?

954
00:36:59,462 --> 00:37:01,696
Especially after Holland
floated that story

955
00:37:01,698 --> 00:37:04,132
about the killer fleeing
in a white van.

956
00:37:04,134 --> 00:37:07,235
So, he puts the real gun
in the latrine

957
00:37:07,237 --> 00:37:08,770
and then returns with a fake one

958
00:37:08,772 --> 00:37:10,572
to play the part
of innocent bystander.

959
00:37:10,574 --> 00:37:14,776
Certainly repellent,
but no more than murder.

960
00:37:14,778 --> 00:37:17,245
I'll call the toilet
rental company,

961
00:37:17,247 --> 00:37:18,947
find out where they
empty their tanks.

962
00:37:18,949 --> 00:37:21,616
Maybe we'll get lucky
and wrap this thing up.

963
00:37:21,618 --> 00:37:25,219
This might be my last case
for several months.

964
00:37:25,221 --> 00:37:27,322
Why?

965
00:37:27,324 --> 00:37:30,191
Dr. Hanson has reiterated
his recommendation

966
00:37:30,193 --> 00:37:31,893
that I take more time off.

967
00:37:31,895 --> 00:37:34,495
Total peace and quiet

968
00:37:34,497 --> 00:37:36,564
might be my best chance
at a quick recovery.

969
00:37:36,566 --> 00:37:39,901
In fact, it might be
the only way I overcome PCS.

970
00:37:39,903 --> 00:37:41,869
How do you feel about that?

971
00:37:41,871 --> 00:37:44,005
Conflicted.

972
00:37:44,524 --> 00:37:47,525
I've always found what we do
quite curative.

973
00:37:47,527 --> 00:37:49,427
I feel I am at my best
when I'm working,

974
00:37:49,429 --> 00:37:51,062
so it seems
counterintuitive

975
00:37:51,064 --> 00:37:55,066
to think that that might be
what's doing me harm.

976
00:37:55,068 --> 00:37:56,868
I can't imagine taking
the amount of time off

977
00:37:56,870 --> 00:37:58,202
that he suggested.

978
00:37:58,204 --> 00:37:59,570
Well, maybe you
should talk to him.

979
00:37:59,572 --> 00:38:01,239
See if you can start smaller.

980
00:38:01,241 --> 00:38:03,040
We've gone a week or two
between cases.

981
00:38:03,042 --> 00:38:05,176
It happens.

982
00:38:05,178 --> 00:38:07,545
I mean, you've always seemed
to manage your downtime.

983
00:38:07,547 --> 00:38:10,548
By boxing, sparring
with my singlestick, reading,

984
00:38:10,550 --> 00:38:12,483
my pastimes are many.

985
00:38:12,485 --> 00:38:15,620
Those that aren't strictly
prohibited by my condition

986
00:38:15,622 --> 00:38:18,222
are made more difficult.

987
00:38:18,224 --> 00:38:20,825
Maybe take a week off?

988
00:38:20,827 --> 00:38:23,928
If it goes well, then
you can push it longer.

989
00:38:23,930 --> 00:38:25,630
Excrement.

990
00:38:25,632 --> 00:38:27,798
Okay, well, maybe it's
not such a great idea.

991
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:29,567
Not your idea.

992
00:38:29,569 --> 00:38:31,135
You were quite close.

993
00:38:31,137 --> 00:38:36,674
The answer we're looking
for might lie in excrement,

994
00:38:36,676 --> 00:38:39,076
just not the kind
you were imagining.

995
00:38:40,580 --> 00:38:42,480
Take it in, Chris.

996
00:38:42,482 --> 00:38:45,082
It's the center
of your undoing.

997
00:38:45,084 --> 00:38:46,951
Is this a joke?

998
00:38:46,953 --> 00:38:49,086
What, you guys didn't find
anything at my house yesterday.

999
00:38:49,088 --> 00:38:50,655
Now what? You're gonna
use my cat's litter box

1000
00:38:50,657 --> 00:38:52,957
to prove I killed George Nix?

1001
00:38:52,959 --> 00:38:54,425
No, but we are going to use it

1002
00:38:54,427 --> 00:38:56,627
to prove that you
burned down his house.

1003
00:38:56,629 --> 00:38:57,828
Cat litter

1004
00:38:57,830 --> 00:38:59,697
is mostly sodium bentonite.

1005
00:38:59,699 --> 00:39:02,967
It's an extremely absorbent clay
made from volcanic ash.

1006
00:39:02,969 --> 00:39:05,136
It's so absorbent,
in fact,

1007
00:39:05,138 --> 00:39:06,938
that arson investigators
use it to trap moisture

1008
00:39:06,940 --> 00:39:08,272
which might be left
at crime scenes.

1009
00:39:08,274 --> 00:39:11,175
It can be
tested to identify

1010
00:39:11,177 --> 00:39:14,111
the exact chemical fingerprint
of whatever accelerant

1011
00:39:14,113 --> 00:39:15,680
was used to start a fire.

1012
00:39:15,682 --> 00:39:17,415
Gasoline, for example.

1013
00:39:17,417 --> 00:39:20,184
Or in your case, a mixture
of napalm B and thermite.

1014
00:39:20,186 --> 00:39:22,653
Yesterday when we spent
time in your lovely home,

1015
00:39:22,655 --> 00:39:24,255
it became obvious
where you would've brewed

1016
00:39:24,257 --> 00:39:25,790
that particular cocktail.

1017
00:39:25,792 --> 00:39:26,958
The garage.

1018
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:28,826
Has a workbench,
two sinks,

1019
00:39:28,828 --> 00:39:30,361
plenty of privacy.

1020
00:39:30,363 --> 00:39:32,363
It's the perfect spot

1021
00:39:32,365 --> 00:39:33,564
for, uh, illicit
home chemistry.

1022
00:39:33,566 --> 00:39:35,032
Problem is, it's also

1023
00:39:35,034 --> 00:39:37,435
the perfect place
for a litter box.

1024
00:39:37,437 --> 00:39:39,437
We stopped by your house
this morning

1025
00:39:39,439 --> 00:39:41,472
after you left for work.
All above board.

1026
00:39:41,474 --> 00:39:44,842
We got an amended warrant
for a second search.

1027
00:39:44,844 --> 00:39:48,312
Residue in your kitty litter
is an identical match

1028
00:39:48,314 --> 00:39:50,815
for the accelerant that was
used at George Nix's home.

1029
00:39:50,817 --> 00:39:53,017
We can prove you started
the fire.

1030
00:39:53,019 --> 00:39:56,287
So, you're gonna charge me
with arson?

1031
00:39:56,289 --> 00:39:57,822
Nobody was hurt in that fire.

1032
00:39:57,824 --> 00:40:01,025
A guy like me does what? A year?

1033
00:40:01,027 --> 00:40:04,262
No. You'll be in
a lot longer than that.

1034
00:40:04,264 --> 00:40:06,831
We're gonna find the gun
you used to shoot George.

1035
00:40:06,833 --> 00:40:09,000
We're pretty sure
you stashed it

1036
00:40:09,002 --> 00:40:12,203
in one of the portable toilets
on the edge of the park.

1037
00:40:12,205 --> 00:40:13,738
I've got guys headed over
to the company

1038
00:40:13,740 --> 00:40:15,606
that provided those toilets
right this minute.

1039
00:40:15,608 --> 00:40:16,874
But I'll tell you what.

1040
00:40:16,876 --> 00:40:18,276
If I were you,

1041
00:40:18,278 --> 00:40:20,811
I'd confess now.

1042
00:40:20,813 --> 00:40:23,014
'Cause if you don't

1043
00:40:23,016 --> 00:40:24,649
and you make a few dozen cops

1044
00:40:24,651 --> 00:40:28,386
dig through a mountain of
literal crap to find your gun,

1045
00:40:28,388 --> 00:40:30,821
I guarantee you

1046
00:40:30,823 --> 00:40:33,090
you'll be facing
the least friendly prosecution

1047
00:40:33,092 --> 00:40:34,525
in the history

1048
00:40:34,527 --> 00:40:36,260
of the New York
judicial system.

1049
00:40:43,403 --> 00:40:45,569
That's an industrial size
cup of coffee.

1050
00:40:45,571 --> 00:40:47,405
Caffeine and gabapentin

1051
00:40:47,407 --> 00:40:49,940
are fighting a war
in my neural cortex.

1052
00:40:49,942 --> 00:40:51,842
You wanted to talk?

1053
00:40:51,844 --> 00:40:55,279
Yeah. I was thinking about the
things you said the other day,

1054
00:40:55,281 --> 00:40:56,647
the problems you've been having,

1055
00:40:56,649 --> 00:40:59,784
and, uh, I thought
I might have a way to help.

1056
00:40:59,786 --> 00:41:01,919
Well, if you're about
to suggest an extended holiday,

1057
00:41:01,921 --> 00:41:03,354
someone's beaten you to it.

1058
00:41:03,356 --> 00:41:04,689
What do you mean?

1059
00:41:04,691 --> 00:41:06,691
My doctor says I need
to take time off.

1060
00:41:06,693 --> 00:41:08,859
And that I should continue
to medicate myself.

1061
00:41:08,861 --> 00:41:10,027
Can you do that?

1062
00:41:10,029 --> 00:41:11,462
Just take time off?

1063
00:41:11,464 --> 00:41:13,230
I mean, it's not like
the bad guys take a break.

1064
00:41:13,232 --> 00:41:15,132
Not my favorite solution.

1065
00:41:15,134 --> 00:41:16,667
You have another?

1066
00:41:16,669 --> 00:41:21,505
Um, I don't know if it's
a solution, but yeah.

1067
00:41:21,507 --> 00:41:23,074
You know how much
my work means to me

1068
00:41:23,076 --> 00:41:25,543
and how I use it
to distract myself.

1069
00:41:25,545 --> 00:41:27,278
I do. I also know that

1070
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,647
you shouldn't pin
your sobriety on anything.

1071
00:41:29,649 --> 00:41:33,084
You could get fired.
Your company could go under.

1072
00:41:33,086 --> 00:41:35,386
Yeah.

1073
00:41:35,388 --> 00:41:39,690
Yeah, point is, uh, there's this
girl I know from the program.

1074
00:41:39,692 --> 00:41:41,959
She always goes
to the same meetings

1075
00:41:41,961 --> 00:41:44,362
like clockwork, for years.

1076
00:41:44,364 --> 00:41:46,163
Last Tuesday,
she doesn't show up

1077
00:41:46,165 --> 00:41:47,965
to the 7:00 p.m.
at St. Olaf's.

1078
00:41:47,967 --> 00:41:52,136
Then she doesn't show up
to the Thursday meeting.

1079
00:41:52,138 --> 00:41:53,871
So, I reach out to her sponsor,

1080
00:41:53,873 --> 00:41:56,408
and it turns out she hasn't
even been showing up to work.

1081
00:41:57,312 --> 00:41:59,853
I don't know.
I'm just worried about her.

1082
00:42:00,202 --> 00:42:02,769
You want me to look for her?

1083
00:42:02,771 --> 00:42:04,737
Yeah, I would feel better
knowing she's okay.

1084
00:42:04,739 --> 00:42:05,939
I mean, I just...

1085
00:42:07,275 --> 00:42:10,477
I thought
it might help you, too.
