- Susan Granwell,
dead in the kitchen.

Must have been a pretty
big donor for the mayor

to ask you all to step in.

- They were old friends.
What do we know?

- Neighbors heard a commotion
around 11:00 p.m.

One of them came
to check on Susan,

found her bleeding out on
the ground, already deceased.

Preliminary cause of death is
blunt force trauma to the head.

Looks like she got hit
with that cast iron.

- Okay, we'll have it sent to
the lab for further processing.

Whose firearm is that?

- Registered to the victim,

but CSU didn't recover
any shell casings.

- So she wasn't able to fire
it off before she got hit.

That skillet's
a weapon of opportunity,

so it's not
premeditated murder.

- What, a robbery gone wrong?

She confronted them with a gun,

they retaliated
by grabbing a cast iron?

- Maybe.

Nice house, lots of valuables.

- Doesn't feel like a break-in.

Only disturbance was in here.

Windows and doors were intact.
Alarm didn't go.

- Whoever did this
either had access to the house,

or she let them in.

- Looks like
a crime of passion.

I have a feeling Susan Granwell
knew her killer.

- All right, folks,
last night, Susan Granwell

was attacked and killed
in her home,

a $12 million historically
preserved home in Fieldston.

- Susan was a major donor
and confidant of the mayor.

He would like her killer
brought to justice immediately.

- Right, hey, have we
notified the family yet?

- No--her son Bobby is in Tokyo
with his grandparents,

and because of the time change,

we haven't been able
to reach them.

But by the time I have to
look this boy in the eyes

and tell him
his mother is gone,

I would like to have
some real answers for him.

- Our team's initial
assessment was that

this looks like
a crime of passion,

so let's talk about
Susan Granwell and anyone

in her life who could have
snapped and killed her.

- Right, well, Susan grew up

an Upper East Side socialite,
old money.

Now she's a hotelier
by way of marriage.

Her late husband, Alex, founded
a chain of boutique hotels

called the Granwell Hotels.

They have locations
across the country.

- Yeah, Sam and I stayed
at a Granwell once.

They had a pillow menu.

- Well,
that's not all they got.

Turns out Granwell Hotels
is knee-deep

in a serious labor dispute.

Maintenance
and hospitality workers

have been on strike
for the past three months

with no end in sight.

They claim Susan is
trying to starve them out.

The protests have
been peaceful,

but it's getting nasty.

- Nasty enough to attack
Susan in her own home?

- She thought so.

Susan filed a police report
last week

after a brick was thrown
through her front window.

She blamed her
disgruntled employees,

but the cops weren't able
to ID a suspect.

- So the brick was to
scare her into returning

to the negotiating table.

When that didn't work, maybe
they amped up the intimidation,

and it got out of hand.

Who's running this union?

- That would be Jeremy Payton,

career labor organizer,

known for running
campaigns of intimidation.

He has threatened
multiple times

to burn down
Granwell properties.

- Not the type to catch
flies with honey, huh?

- Definitely not.

- Granwell sent their goons
to rough me up, to silence me.

We're not scared of you!

You hear that, Susan?

You should be scared of us!

- Well, he might be a charmer,
but if it walks like a motive

and talks like a motive--

- Well, forensics
might back it up.

- Yeah?

- Report from the crime scene
just landed,

and Jeremy's fingerprints
were found all over it.

- Mm.
- Low lipid oxidation

in the residue suggests
his prints were recent.

- What about the murder weapon?
- Wiped clean.

No fingerprints there.

- Well, nice try, Jeremy.

The man was there.

Let's bring him in.

all: Granwell, Granwell,
you can't hide!

We can see your greedy side!

Granwell, Granwell,
you can't hide!

We can see your greedy side!
- Back up, scabs!

Nobody's getting through
this picket line!

Get out of here! Boo!

Scab!

Scab!

- Excuse me. FBI.
Excuse us.

[indistinct shouting]

Jeremy Payton, how you doing?
FBI.

Why don't we take the
temperature down a little bit?

- Law enforcement protecting
the corporate fat cats again!

Why am I not surprised?

- No. No, wait.

That's not what's
happening here, okay?

Look, Mr. Payton, we have
a few questions for you,

so why don't you come with us?

Obstructing a federal agent
is a crime, fellas.

So move. Now.

- Oh, you don't tell them
what to do, sweetheart.

- Sweetheart?

- Okay, yeah, no,
that's not gonna work.

Let's go.

You two, step aside,
or you're coming.

Let's go.
Hands behind your back.

- See? You see
what they're doing to us?

Don't let these jackboots
take away your voices!

Union strong!

all: Union strong!

Union strong!

Union strong!

You hear that, Susan?

You should be scared--

From the moment I saw you guys,

I knew that this was
what it was about.

- That's not what
you were screaming

at your union brethren about.

You wanted them to believe
that we were there

to shut down your picket.

- I saw an opportunity
to keep my people angry,

energized, and I took it.

Sure, it was theater,

but so was this.

Nothing I said
on that video was real.

- So Granwell Hotels
never sent you

their people to beat you up?

- Not physically, but you know,

they've been beating us down
for long enough.

- Jeremy, please, stop.

All right? That's enough.

Did you fake these injuries,

file a false police report

blaming Susan Granwell's
private security?

- You gotta give them an enemy
to keep them motivated.

So yeah, I had a couple
of my boys rough me up.

Blamed it all on management.

- Sounds like a felony.

- Well, it worked.

Momentum's on our side now.

- So if Susan Granwell
is losing,

why'd you pay her a visit?

- Your fingerprints,
they're all over Susan's home.

- [scoffs]

- Doorknobs, kitchen counters.

Question is, are we gonna
find them on Susan's body?

- Hold up, her body?

- You killed her.
- Wait, I--

- Beat her to death
and then fled, did you not?

- Whoa--
what are you talking about?

No, no, no, no, no, I didn't--

[tense music]

What? No.

No, no, Susie.

That's my Susie.

- Your Susie?

- I didn't do this.
I would never.

I mean, we--we couldn't
come out publicly,

but we were in love.

- This woman was
your sworn enemy.

You trash talked her daily.

- For show.

From the second we met at
negotiations, I felt a spark.

We--we were the same, stubborn.

We wanted big things, you know?

We just chose different paths.

But that didn't stop the fates

- Hey. Take a look at that.

- Happy family.

- Doesn't mean he's innocent,
though.

- No, but his alibi does.

The JOC confirmed
via security cams

that Jeremy was at
the union office

at the time of the murder.

- Well, he's also claiming that

the two of them were engaged,

so that would explain
his fingerprints

all over Susan's house.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah,
but that engagement ring,

that seems to be missing.

- Hmm.

- So what,
you're saying that this

could be a robbery after all,

and Susan was killed
over a ring?

- It's possible, right?

- Oh, yeah.

I looked into vintage rings
like this for Nina,

and a rock like that
from the '20s, good clarity,

thing would go for 750K easy.

- Thanks, Elise.
Well, you win,

but by "Price is Right" rules,

Jeremy's insurance policy puts
the ring's value at 800K.

- Okay, yeah,
someone might kill over that.

- Yeah, for sure.
- Okay, but Jeremy said

that only the people
in this photo

knew about the engagement.

- Well,
that's not entirely true.

Someone took this picture.

- All right, so according
to Jeremy Payton,

Bobby's private math tutor
took this photo, which means,

if true, this tutor is
the only other person we know

knew our victim
had an $800,000 ring.

- Which is now missing.
- Right.

And Jeremy also said the tutor

had a key to Susan's home.

So that is means,
that is opportunity,

and that's me hoping you
figure out who this tutor is.

- Lucas Williams, 18,

lives in Corona
with his dad, Frank,

and younger sister, Faith.

- Okay, Ian,
you wanna get up on his phone?

- On it.
- Any criminal history?

- Not even a parking ticket.
- He's an impressive kid.

Was up for
the Miller-Dier Prize

in High School Computing
last year.

He's an honor student at the
Augustus School in Manhattan.

- Yeah, a Corona kid at
a private fancy school uptown.

- Full ride,
need-based scholarship.

- Looks like Dad's
been unemployed

for a couple years.

- Maybe he was sick
of being the poor kid

at the country club school.

- Right, saw an opportunity
for a payday,

but then Susan caught him.

And, I mean, yeah, maybe.

Could be my bias
'cause he's my son's age,

but I'm having
a hard time believing

this kid is our killer.
We need to talk to him.

How we doing, Ian?
- His phone is dark,

not just off.

Lucas must have taken
out the battery.

He's savvy.
- Oh.

So he could be trying
to not be found.

if someone clicks on one,

But the phishing scam
was anonymous.

He hasn't been able

and stealing worked once.

But why did you kill Susan--

- She wasn't supposed
to be home, okay?

I was just gonna grab stuff
that she wouldn't miss.

But she was there, and--
and I tried to sneak out.

But it was dark, and I tripped,

and she found me,

All I could think is,
she's gonna shoot me,

No activity to exploit.

Lucas initially robbed.

I am assuming they are owned

So if I can trace
that wallet's IP address,

cross-reference it with
other public data--

bingo!
- Yeah?

- The wallet Lucas phished
is affiliated

with an exchange account

registered to
a Novarin Systems.

- Novarin Systems.
What kind of company is that?

- Officially, IT consulting,
but according

to an ongoing RICO
investigation,

Novarin Systems is also
a suspected front

for the New York clan

- You're kidding.

This kid accidentally stole
from the Russian mob.

- In an absolutely banner
stroke of bad luck,

18-year-old Lucas Williams

- How did they even know
Lucas was stealing from them?

- Yeah, that's--that's
nagging at me too.

We're just getting

- We just arrested the boss

of the New York clan
six months ago.

Do we know
who is in charge now?

- Uh, yeah.

Uh, Elise,
how we doing on that?

- Uh, yeah, Organized Crime
believe the new head

of the New York clan of Bratva
to be this man,

54 years old, named--

- Andrei Ovechkin?

[suspenseful music]

How long has he been
in New York?

- Immigration says
three months.

I'm guessing
you've heard of him?

- [sighs] You could say that.

All right, so, uh,

you remember my old man

used to work for
the State Department, right?

- Right.

- So he was stationed in Moscow

for a couple years
when I was 12.

I went to the international
school over there.

You wanna take a wild guess
who my best friend was?

- Oof.

You were only in Moscow
for two years.

Yeah, but you know,

Andrei was, you know--

he was like a brother.

Even after my family
moved back to the States,

you know, we talked
as much as we could.

We had a whole plan,
you know.

He was gonna move here.
He was gonna stay with me.

We were gonna open up a...
[chuckles]

Private investigator business,

you know, get answers

for people left behind
in the system.

I smuggled a VHS tape
of "Chinatown" into Moscow,

and we used to watch it
all the time.

I kind of had a thing
for '70s noir.

- You still in contact
with him?

- No, I haven't talked to him
since I was 20.

The Soviet Union collapsed.

You know, it was chaos.

He went dark.

Eventually, I found out he
had joined Bratva to survive.

But his name hasn't
popped up in years.

I figured, you know,
he had been killed

with the trajectory he was on.

his stars instead.

- Well, his tenure as boss
will be short-lived.

I want a full-scale raid
on his base of operations.

We'll force his hand
to give up the girl.

- Respectfully, obviously,
Bratva is good for this.

But with Andrei,

if they sent him here
from Moscow,

he means something
to the organization,

and the powers that be are
watching, and he knows that.

- All the more reason
for him to make a statement.

No one steals from Bratva
on Andrei Ovechkin's watch.

that's not how

to do with this,

and now her life
is being ransomed

for some stolen Bitcoin,
all thanks to your forum.

- I hope you find the girl.
I really do.

But I am not responsible for
what nutjobs do with my posts.

- Legally, that is not true.

You will be charged
with accessory to murder,

kidnapping,
endangerment of a minor.

What is it that you always say?

"Actions have consequences"?

[tense music]

[door buzzes]

- Now a good time?
- It's perfect.

Whitney here was
just about to offer

her full cooperation, right?

- Yeah. I'll help.

- Terrific.

Meet FBI intelligence
analyst Ian Lim.

He's the one who cracked
your forum security

and identified you.
- Shadow proxy?

- Been trying to narrow down
who might have seen your post

with Lucas Williams'
information,

but your site wipes
all incoming IP addresses.

- Yeah, volatile logging.
There is no backup.

You must have the kidnappers'
wallet address, right?

- Yes, it was included
in the ransom.

- You should be able to ID them
from the previous transactions.

- New wallet, never been used.

- So they know
what they're doing.

- What haven't I tried?

We have no other way to track
or even communicate with them.

- Wait, I--

sorry,
I'm trying to keep up here.

It sounds like you're saying
the only way

to trace
back to the kidnappers

is to actually send
the Bitcoin.

- Unless...

we drop something else

- All right, I know I'm still
out here carrying cash,

but I think I understand
enough about crypto

to know you can't send a text
to a wallet address, right?

- Correct.
You can only send crypto.

But I can create
a new digital coin

that we can send
to the kidnappers' wallet.

- What, you can just create
a new cryptocurrency?

- Anyone can.
It takes five minutes.

- You're out here
printing money, bro.

- Yeah, not really.

It'll be valueless.

Just need it to get
the kidnappers' attention.

May I present...

- Huh, "Proof of Life First"
Coin.

Very smart.

The coin is the message,

and hopefully this will get
them to turn on their burner.

- Exactly.

As soon as this coin appears
in the kidnappers' wallet,

it'll tell them
that Lucas is only willing

to pay the ransom
if they prove that his sister

is still alive.

They turn on their burner
to send proof.

- So send it.

- Kidnappers must have seen
Ian's "Proof of Life" Coin

and turned their
burners back on.

- Just in time.

It looks like they
are about to respond.

- Okay, here we go.

- Lucas,
please give them the money.

They said
they're gonna kill me

if you don't give them
the money.

- Okay, time stamp
on that news clip

is from one minute ago.

- Turn that station on.

[suspenseful music]

Is that--yeah.

- Yeah, that's live.
We can still save this girl.

- Okay, so where are
they holding her?

- The burner that they're using
doesn't have GPS services on,

and they stripped all location
metadata from the video.

- She's in a pretty
nondescript room.

- Hang on.

That structure

is a round masonry heater.

Uh, that kind of brick design
with a small firebox,

that's really unusual.

It's German style,

circa 1900 to 1915.

- You're up on 20th century
masonry now, Moran?

- I helped my uncle renovate
a building one summer.

- Would you let the man cook?

- Most owners ripped
these out by the '90s

because of the city's updated
Air Pollution Control Code,

but the ones that didn't
need to file permits.

Elise.
- Yeah.

There can't be many
of those things left.

One was killed.

No gang affiliation,

None of those kids do.

I asked these kids to meet.

- Andrei's intel helped us
identify these two men

as our kidnappers--

Nikita Kharkov
and Ilia Marinov.

- They're practically kids.

If they spook and they
don't show up, we have nothing.

- Having a face-to-face
with Andrei means something.

If they're trying to move up,
this is their chance

to impress the boss.

They think recovering
Andrei's 300K

will make them invaluable
to Bratva.

- Okay, Jubal's wire is hot.

He and Andrei are gonna get
them to incriminate themselves,

then we will arrest them
and use that information

to see if we can get
Faith Williams' location.

- Andrei could have
something planned here.

Are we sure we trust him?

- No.

Oh, showtime.

Hey, Jubal,
we have a car pulling up now.

- Is it the black Dodge we
last saw the suspects driving?

- No, it's a green BMW.

Okay, we got a problem.

Nikita's the only one
that showed up.

That means that Ilia
might be with Faith

at a different location.

I think it's gonna put her
in danger

if we arrest Nikita here.

What I think you should do
is get Nikita

to say the location
where they're holding Faith.

make sure that Nikita

and Ilia don't speak.
