00:07:32,669 --> 00:07:34,192
Oh, that's nice of you to say.

188
00:07:34,236 --> 00:07:36,281
Sally seems to think
that I'll become a fan

189
00:07:36,325 --> 00:07:37,369
of your club here.

190
00:07:37,413 --> 00:07:39,328
Oh. Yeah,
how did you guys...

191
00:07:39,371 --> 00:07:40,590
He's a friend of Macon's.

192
00:07:40,634 --> 00:07:42,200
My editor at the paper.

193
00:07:42,244 --> 00:07:43,854
Oh.

194
00:07:43,898 --> 00:07:45,160
Yeah, we went
to college together.

195
00:07:45,203 --> 00:07:46,291
Yes,

196
00:07:46,335 --> 00:07:47,510
and Robin is in town

197
00:07:47,554 --> 00:07:48,772
teaching at the university

198
00:07:48,816 --> 00:07:50,208
for the next few months,

199
00:07:50,252 --> 00:07:51,514
and he asked me if I knew
any nice places to rent,

200
00:07:51,558 --> 00:07:52,776
so I gave him your mom's number.

201
00:07:52,820 --> 00:07:54,299
She got me a short-term lease

202
00:07:54,343 --> 00:07:55,953
on this great townhouse.

203
00:07:55,997 --> 00:07:58,129
Oh, you're the new tenant.

204
00:07:58,173 --> 00:07:59,174
Yeah.

205
00:07:59,217 --> 00:08:00,392
I'm the property manager.

206
00:08:00,436 --> 00:08:01,611
I live right nearby.

207
00:08:01,655 --> 00:08:03,657
Oh. Well then,
we were destined to meet.

208
00:08:03,700 --> 00:08:05,659
Well, come meet
our other neighbor.

209
00:08:05,702 --> 00:08:06,790
Sure.

210
00:08:06,834 --> 00:08:08,226
This is Bankston Waites.

211
00:08:08,270 --> 00:08:09,619
Hello.

212
00:08:09,663 --> 00:08:10,533
And his girlfriend
Melanie Clark.

213
00:08:10,577 --> 00:08:11,491
- Hi.
- Hi.

214
00:08:13,536 --> 00:08:15,799
And there's Arthur.
What's he doing here?

215
00:08:15,843 --> 00:08:17,061
Is he rejoining the club?

216
00:08:17,105 --> 00:08:18,149
Oh, I don't know.

217
00:08:18,193 --> 00:08:19,977
I'll go find out.

218
00:08:20,021 --> 00:08:21,370
Who's he?

219
00:08:21,413 --> 00:08:22,719
Oh, he's a police detective.

220
00:08:22,763 --> 00:08:23,720
And Roe's ex.

221
00:08:23,764 --> 00:08:25,417
- Hey!
- Hey.

222
00:08:25,461 --> 00:08:26,506
Please tell me you're
coming back to the club.

223
00:08:26,549 --> 00:08:27,637
Uh...

224
00:08:27,681 --> 00:08:30,074
We're here
in an official capacity.

225
00:08:30,118 --> 00:08:32,033
"We?"

226
00:08:32,076 --> 00:08:33,730
Lynn...

227
00:08:36,733 --> 00:08:38,822
Wait, what's going on?

228
00:08:38,866 --> 00:08:41,433
Um, Lynn needs
to talk to Gerald.

229
00:08:44,393 --> 00:08:45,655
But if you want to
talk to him...

230
00:08:45,699 --> 00:08:47,918
You're a homicide detective...

231
00:08:47,962 --> 00:08:49,659
Unless you've changed
your name to Gerald,

232
00:08:49,703 --> 00:08:51,008
we have no business with you.

233
00:08:51,052 --> 00:08:52,706
Which one is he?

234
00:08:52,749 --> 00:08:54,055
Um... he's right there.

235
00:08:56,057 --> 00:08:57,667
Oh.

236
00:08:57,711 --> 00:08:59,756
Oh, Arthur, please don't tell me
this has to do with Mamie.

237
00:09:06,110 --> 00:09:07,851
Mr. Wright?
Detective Liggett Smith.

238
00:09:07,895 --> 00:09:09,200
Do you think we could
go somewhere

239
00:09:09,244 --> 00:09:10,898
and speak in private?

240
00:09:10,941 --> 00:09:13,596
- Sure.
- What is Lynn doing here?

241
00:09:15,816 --> 00:09:17,469
Wait.

242
00:09:17,513 --> 00:09:19,602
LeMaster was supposed to
get the key from their house.

243
00:09:19,646 --> 00:09:20,560
He hasn't shown up yet.

244
00:09:20,603 --> 00:09:21,604
Is he all right?

245
00:09:21,648 --> 00:09:22,692
LeMaster is fine.

246
00:09:22,736 --> 00:09:23,606
He's shaken up,

247
00:09:23,650 --> 00:09:25,042
but fine.

248
00:09:25,086 --> 00:09:27,131
Shaken up?
Did he find the...

249
00:09:29,090 --> 00:09:30,047
Arthur, you're back.

250
00:09:30,091 --> 00:09:32,833
And you brought your wife.

251
00:09:35,313 --> 00:09:38,316
Oh, you aren't here
for the meeting.

252
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,928
Unfortunately not.

253
00:09:43,539 --> 00:09:46,107
Wonder what that's all about.

254
00:09:46,150 --> 00:09:48,500
It's gotta be
about Mamie, right?

255
00:09:48,544 --> 00:09:50,241
Do you think she was hurt?

256
00:09:50,285 --> 00:09:53,114
Whatever it is,
it seems pretty serious.

257
00:09:53,157 --> 00:09:56,726
Oh gosh, I hope not.
I really like Mamie.

258
00:09:56,770 --> 00:09:58,598
Oh, no, look at Roe's face.

259
00:09:58,641 --> 00:10:01,165
This is bad.

260
00:10:03,298 --> 00:10:04,778
Roe?

261
00:10:09,043 --> 00:10:10,435
Is there anything
that you can tell us?

262
00:10:10,479 --> 00:10:12,263
Mamie and Gerald
are our friends.

263
00:10:12,307 --> 00:10:14,788
It's not my place.

264
00:10:14,831 --> 00:10:16,659
What is it?
What's going on?

265
00:10:16,703 --> 00:10:19,967
Mamie's been...

266
00:10:20,010 --> 00:10:21,795
She was attacked.
Homicide.

267
00:10:21,838 --> 00:10:23,753
[gasps]

268
00:10:23,797 --> 00:10:25,929
That's awful.

269
00:10:25,973 --> 00:10:28,497
She was a nice lady.

270
00:10:28,540 --> 00:10:29,977
She certainly didn't deserve

271
00:10:30,020 --> 00:10:32,632
to get bludgeoned
in front of her own fireplace.

272
00:10:32,675 --> 00:10:34,503
That's how it happened?

273
00:10:36,374 --> 00:10:38,550
It's... it's really
not my place to divulge...

274
00:10:38,594 --> 00:10:39,682
Sally, please don't quote me.

275
00:10:39,726 --> 00:10:41,771
[splutters]
Quote you? No.

276
00:10:41,815 --> 00:10:42,990
Are there any suspects?

277
00:10:44,992 --> 00:10:46,776
Detective Smith?

278
00:10:46,820 --> 00:10:47,821
Patterson's on the radio.

279
00:10:47,864 --> 00:10:48,865
What is it?

280
00:10:48,909 --> 00:10:49,953
He wants to know

281
00:10:49,997 --> 00:10:51,128
if he should bag the raincoat,

282
00:10:51,172 --> 00:10:52,129
or wait for the husband
to I.D. it.

283
00:10:52,173 --> 00:10:53,653
Wait, what raincoat?

284
00:10:53,696 --> 00:10:55,132
Raincoat?

285
00:10:55,176 --> 00:10:56,830
Oh, there was a raincoat
crumpled under Mamie's body.

286
00:10:56,873 --> 00:10:58,788
I'll talk to Patterson.

287
00:10:58,832 --> 00:11:00,181
Uh, guys,

288
00:11:00,224 --> 00:11:01,486
you're probably gonna
wanna cancel the meeting.

289
00:11:01,530 --> 00:11:03,837
Send everybody home.

290
00:11:06,753 --> 00:11:07,841
Roe, do you want to
announce we're done here,

291
00:11:07,884 --> 00:11:09,451
or shall I?

292
00:11:11,235 --> 00:11:12,497
Is everything all right?

293
00:11:12,541 --> 00:11:14,238
Did you hear
what Arthur just said?

294
00:11:14,282 --> 00:11:17,067
A raincoat
was crumpled under Mamie.

295
00:11:17,111 --> 00:11:19,722
By a fireplace.

296
00:11:19,766 --> 00:11:21,202
The Julia Wallace case.

297
00:11:21,245 --> 00:11:22,986
Yeah.

298
00:11:23,030 --> 00:11:24,901
The phone call.

299
00:11:24,945 --> 00:11:26,860
That voice

300
00:11:26,903 --> 00:11:28,557
that asked for Julia.

301
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:29,471
I have to go tell Arthur.

302
00:11:33,214 --> 00:11:36,347
Is she always two steps
ahead of everybody else?

303
00:11:36,391 --> 00:11:37,958
Generally, yes.

304
00:11:43,093 --> 00:11:44,747
Yeah, okay.
Copy that.

305
00:11:44,791 --> 00:11:45,922
Arthur, there's something
you need to know.

306
00:11:45,966 --> 00:11:47,837
What is it, Roe?

307
00:11:47,881 --> 00:11:49,534
15 minutes before our meeting,

308
00:11:49,578 --> 00:11:52,015
someone called here
and asked for Julia Wallace.

309
00:11:52,059 --> 00:11:53,625
The victim in the murder

310
00:11:53,669 --> 00:11:54,583
we were supposed to
discuss tonight.

311
00:11:54,626 --> 00:11:55,540
Do you remember that case?

312
00:11:55,584 --> 00:11:57,412
England, 1934?

313
00:11:57,455 --> 00:11:58,674
Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Vaguely, yeah.

314
00:11:58,718 --> 00:12:00,197
Husband convicted of
bludgeoning his wife?

315
00:12:00,241 --> 00:12:01,546
In front of a fireplace,

316
00:12:01,590 --> 00:12:02,939
on top of a raincoat.

317
00:12:04,245 --> 00:12:06,551
Wait, are you saying
what I think you're saying?

318
00:12:06,595 --> 00:12:08,771
I'm saying what happened
to Mamie was a copycat.

319
00:12:08,815 --> 00:12:10,120
I'm saying

320
00:12:10,164 --> 00:12:12,427
I think whoever did this
was someone who knew

321
00:12:12,470 --> 00:12:13,776
what our meeting
was gonna be about tonight.

322
00:12:13,820 --> 00:12:16,083
Arthur,

323
00:12:16,126 --> 00:12:17,388
I think Mamie's killer

324
00:12:17,432 --> 00:12:19,042
could be a member
of the Real Murders Club.

325
00:12:19,086 --> 00:12:20,304
Lynn needs to know now.

326
00:12:20,348 --> 00:12:21,566
Call Captain Burns,

327
00:12:21,610 --> 00:12:23,090
get some back-up down here.

328
00:12:23,133 --> 00:12:24,787
And don't let anybody
outside that building!

329
00:12:24,831 --> 00:12:26,441
We gotta question everyone.

330
00:12:30,837 --> 00:12:32,752
What in the world
did Roe tell the police

331
00:12:32,795 --> 00:12:34,754
to have them round us up
like prisoners of war?

332
00:12:34,797 --> 00:12:36,320
Hey, so can I get
my phone back or what?

333
00:12:36,364 --> 00:12:38,670
'Cause I'm for sure
gonna call a lawyer!

334
00:12:40,455 --> 00:12:42,065
Call away.

335
00:12:42,109 --> 00:12:43,675
Now, we're going to be asking

336
00:12:43,719 --> 00:12:45,677
a few basic questions
of you all tonight,

337
00:12:45,721 --> 00:12:47,810
so if anyone else would like
their lawyer present,

338
00:12:47,854 --> 00:12:49,943
you can use that phone
when Perry is done with it.

339
00:12:56,297 --> 00:12:58,299
I've never been questioned
by the police before.

340
00:12:58,342 --> 00:13:00,518
You can't buy
this kind of research.

341
00:13:07,047 --> 00:13:10,006
Photos are coming through
right now.

342
00:13:12,139 --> 00:13:14,271
See? That. Right there.

343
00:13:14,315 --> 00:13:15,795
You see that?

344
00:13:15,838 --> 00:13:17,797
The victim's arm,

345
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,146
it's bent

346
00:13:19,189 --> 00:13:21,713
just like the crime scene
photo of Julia Wallace.

347
00:13:21,757 --> 00:13:23,063
She was posed?

348
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,111
You know, Mamie's husband
is an insurance salesman.

349
00:13:28,155 --> 00:13:30,287
Just like
Julia Wallace's husband.

350
00:13:30,331 --> 00:13:32,507
How do you announce the subject
of discussion of your club?

351
00:13:32,550 --> 00:13:34,857
Post it online,
put it in the paper, what?

352
00:13:34,901 --> 00:13:35,945
I send a group email.

353
00:13:35,989 --> 00:13:37,512
So only club members
would have known

354
00:13:37,555 --> 00:13:39,340
the Wallace thing was
on your agenda tonight?

355
00:13:39,383 --> 00:13:42,299
Well, anyone connected
to a club member

356
00:13:42,343 --> 00:13:43,648
might also know.

357
00:13:43,692 --> 00:13:44,649
I mean, they would have
seen a flyer maybe?

358
00:13:44,693 --> 00:13:46,129
No, we don't pass out flyers.

359
00:13:46,173 --> 00:13:47,348
That would require a budget.

360
00:13:48,610 --> 00:13:50,220
And that would require a club

361
00:13:50,264 --> 00:13:52,135
that wasn't
a ridiculous exercise

362
00:13:52,179 --> 00:13:53,833
in pretend investigating.

363
00:13:55,791 --> 00:13:57,445
Just an opinion.

364
00:13:59,447 --> 00:14:00,404
Tell me what you know
about the husband.

365
00:14:00,448 --> 00:14:02,058
Gerald?

366
00:14:02,102 --> 00:14:05,322
Oh, he and Mamie
would never miss a meeting.

367
00:14:05,366 --> 00:14:06,976
It was kind of cute

368
00:14:07,020 --> 00:14:08,021
they way they'd argue over who was the more likely suspect

369
00:14:08,064 --> 00:14:09,065
in a case.

370
00:14:09,109 --> 00:14:10,153
They argued?

371
00:14:10,197 --> 00:14:11,851
No, I meant debate.

372
00:14:11,894 --> 00:14:13,591
Like a fun debate.

373
00:14:13,635 --> 00:14:15,724
Look, I know that
he's the most obvious suspect.

374
00:14:15,767 --> 00:14:17,508
The husbands usually are, right?

375
00:14:17,552 --> 00:14:19,162
But no, Gerald, he adored Mamie.

376
00:14:19,206 --> 00:14:20,555
He would never...

377
00:14:20,598 --> 00:14:23,079
We decide who our suspects are,
not you.

378
00:14:35,048 --> 00:14:36,876
Oh, did you get any sleep?

379
00:14:36,919 --> 00:14:38,529
Not much.

380
00:14:38,573 --> 00:14:40,531
They kept us there
until almost 2:00 a.m.

381
00:14:40,575 --> 00:14:41,706
[sighing]
That's terrible.

382
00:14:41,750 --> 00:14:42,794
Treating my daughter

383
00:14:42,838 --> 00:14:44,231
like she's some common criminal.

384
00:14:44,274 --> 00:14:46,581
If whoever did this to Mamie

385
00:14:46,624 --> 00:14:48,888
really is someone
from Real Murders, well...

386
00:14:48,931 --> 00:14:50,715
I downloaded profiles

387
00:14:50,759 --> 00:14:52,065
on everyone in the club
last night

388
00:14:52,108 --> 00:14:54,110
to try to figure this out...

389
00:14:54,154 --> 00:14:56,808
and it's obviously not
Sally or John.

390
00:14:56,852 --> 00:14:59,768
I suppose Gerald
has to be on the list.

391
00:14:59,811 --> 00:15:01,248
Aurora, how many times
have I told you

392
00:15:01,291 --> 00:15:03,815
this club is not
a wholesome environment?

393
00:15:03,859 --> 00:15:06,383
LeMaster found the body,
so that puts him on the list,

394
00:15:06,427 --> 00:15:08,385
but I'm guessing
he'll be ruled out soon.

395
00:15:08,429 --> 00:15:10,039
And so will Bankston.

396
00:15:10,083 --> 00:15:11,475
Did you hear what I said?

397
00:15:11,519 --> 00:15:14,478
It's not healthy to obsess
on these tragedies, Aurora.

398
00:15:14,522 --> 00:15:16,045
I overheard Lynn say

399
00:15:16,089 --> 00:15:18,091
that Mamie was on the phone
at 6:10 with her sister,

400
00:15:18,134 --> 00:15:19,483
and LeMaster found the body

401
00:15:19,527 --> 00:15:20,920
at 6:30,

402
00:15:20,963 --> 00:15:23,444
so that pinpoints
the time of death.

403
00:15:23,487 --> 00:15:25,620
And then we saw Bankston
leaving to his car

404
00:15:25,663 --> 00:15:27,578
to pick up Melanie
just before 6:30,

405
00:15:27,622 --> 00:15:28,666
so it definitely can't be him,

406
00:15:28,710 --> 00:15:31,800
or Melanie.

407
00:15:31,843 --> 00:15:34,063
Now, Dory, I can't
imagine it's her,

408
00:15:34,107 --> 00:15:36,239
she's such a mom.

409
00:15:36,283 --> 00:15:37,588
Oh.

410
00:15:37,632 --> 00:15:39,155
Now, Perry Dell
that's a different story.

411
00:15:39,199 --> 00:15:42,419
He was really
agitated last night,

412
00:15:42,463 --> 00:15:44,160
and he's been arrested
for fighting.

413
00:15:44,204 --> 00:15:45,770
He said he turned over
a new leaf,

414
00:15:45,814 --> 00:15:46,946
but I don't know.

415
00:15:46,989 --> 00:15:48,121
Here. Chamomile.

416
00:15:48,164 --> 00:15:49,600
- It'll calm you down...
- Benjamin!

417
00:15:49,644 --> 00:15:51,820
I totally forgot about him.

418
00:15:51,863 --> 00:15:52,995
You know Benjamin Greer,

419
00:15:53,039 --> 00:15:54,301
the butcher from
the gourmet market?

420
00:15:54,344 --> 00:15:55,998
He was the only member

421
00:15:56,042 --> 00:15:58,000
that didn't show
to the meeting last night.

422
00:15:58,044 --> 00:16:00,611
Oh, he's definitely on the list.

423
00:16:00,655 --> 00:16:02,091
And then there's Robin Daniels.

424
00:16:02,135 --> 00:16:03,136
The new tenant?

425
00:16:04,746 --> 00:16:06,617
He writes
murder mysteries, Mother.

426
00:16:06,661 --> 00:16:09,272
And he just happens to
show up at our meeting

427
00:16:09,316 --> 00:16:10,970
right after
what happened to Mamie?

428
00:16:11,013 --> 00:16:13,189
You think that's a coincidence?

429
00:16:14,582 --> 00:16:16,453
I'm supposed to give him
his keys this morning, right?

430
00:16:16,497 --> 00:16:17,367
I could ask him
a few questions...

431
00:16:17,411 --> 00:16:19,108
Oh, no, you don't.

432
00:16:19,152 --> 00:16:20,501
You're not going to inflict
that suspicious nature of yours

433
00:16:20,544 --> 00:16:22,720
on a tenant who hasn't even
moved in yet.

434
00:16:22,764 --> 00:16:23,852
No, no, no,
I'll give him the keys.

435
00:16:25,027 --> 00:16:25,985
Yeah, but what if...

436
00:16:26,028 --> 00:16:27,073
Listen to your mother.

437
00:16:41,043 --> 00:16:43,393
Oh, hey, Roe,

438
00:16:43,437 --> 00:16:45,004
how ya doin'?

439
00:16:45,047 --> 00:16:47,484
Not good, Benjamin.

440
00:16:47,528 --> 00:16:48,529
Mamie was killed.

441
00:16:49,965 --> 00:16:53,142
Yeah, no, the cops
came by my place yesterday

442
00:16:53,186 --> 00:16:54,491
to tell me about it,

443
00:16:54,535 --> 00:16:56,015
asked me why
I wasn't at the meeting.

444
00:16:57,190 --> 00:16:59,148
Yeah, I was wondering
the same thing.

445
00:16:59,192 --> 00:17:00,541
Well, I got some stuff to do.

446
00:17:00,584 --> 00:17:02,325
You know I'm going
into politics now.

447
00:17:02,369 --> 00:17:04,849
I'm the new campaign manager
for Morrison Pettigrue.

448
00:17:04,893 --> 00:17:06,721
He's running for mayor.

449
00:17:06,764 --> 00:17:07,896
I think he's got
a real shot to win.

450
00:17:09,071 --> 00:17:10,507
You think so?

451
00:17:10,551 --> 00:17:11,726
Yeah, and if he does,

452
00:17:11,769 --> 00:17:14,772
that means
no more bloody aprons for me.

453
00:17:14,816 --> 00:17:16,731
But right now,

454
00:17:16,774 --> 00:17:17,862
I've gotta get some chicken out.

455
00:17:17,906 --> 00:17:19,864
Free range organic,

456
00:17:19,908 --> 00:17:20,865
on special,

457
00:17:20,909 --> 00:17:23,259
only 6.99 a pound.

458
00:17:26,088 --> 00:17:27,742
You're thinking
it's him, aren't you?

459
00:17:27,785 --> 00:17:29,700
You're thinking
Benjamin Greer did it.

460
00:17:29,744 --> 00:17:31,050
I know you're not
here for chickens.

461
00:17:31,093 --> 00:17:33,226
You don't know why I'm here.

462
00:17:33,269 --> 00:17:35,054
Well, I know you're not
pushing a cart,

463
00:17:35,097 --> 00:17:36,620
and I know you think

464
00:17:36,664 --> 00:17:37,708
you need to solve any crime
within a 50-mile radius.

465
00:17:37,752 --> 00:17:39,536
This wasn't just any crime.

466
00:17:39,580 --> 00:17:41,190
It involved Mamie, our friend.

467
00:17:41,234 --> 00:17:42,235
Yes, we knew her.

468
00:17:42,278 --> 00:17:43,236
And we might even
know who did it

469
00:17:43,279 --> 00:17:44,759
if it's someone in the club.

470
00:17:46,848 --> 00:17:48,893
So you do think Benjamin did it.

471
00:17:48,937 --> 00:17:51,200
I just think it's strange

472
00:17:51,244 --> 00:17:52,462
that he's the only one

473
00:17:52,506 --> 00:17:54,203
that didn't show up
to the meeting last night,

474
00:17:54,247 --> 00:17:56,727
yet he's not even curious
about how Mamie died,

475
00:17:56,771 --> 00:17:58,425
or anything that happened
the other night.

476
00:17:58,468 --> 00:18:00,079
Was it was the butcher,

477
00:18:00,122 --> 00:18:01,428
in the parlor,
with the candlestick?

478
00:18:01,471 --> 00:18:02,733
Sorry.

479
00:18:02,777 --> 00:18:04,387
Hi, Robin.

480
00:18:04,431 --> 00:18:06,215
Hi.

481
00:18:06,259 --> 00:18:08,087
Did you two come together?

482
00:18:08,130 --> 00:18:09,392
Yes. He was
complaining to Macon

483
00:18:09,436 --> 00:18:10,393
about not having
anything in his fridge,

484
00:18:10,437 --> 00:18:11,438
so I said I'd show him

485
00:18:11,481 --> 00:18:13,004
where all the gourmet stuff was.

486
00:18:13,048 --> 00:18:15,572
[Robin]: She didn't think
I'd take her up on it, but...

487
00:18:15,616 --> 00:18:16,747
Oh, I don't mind, really.

488
00:18:16,791 --> 00:18:19,620
But I do have to
get back to my story,

489
00:18:19,663 --> 00:18:21,752
so Roe can show you
where to find

490
00:18:21,796 --> 00:18:22,797
whatever it is that you need.

491
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,321
If she can stop
looking for suspects

492
00:18:25,365 --> 00:18:26,496
for two minutes.

493
00:18:26,540 --> 00:18:27,802
And if you figure out
who's guilty,

494
00:18:27,845 --> 00:18:29,456
this time, can you
call the police

495
00:18:29,499 --> 00:18:31,719
before your life is in danger?

496
00:18:33,721 --> 00:18:35,114
Have fun, kids!

497
00:18:35,157 --> 00:18:37,116
Bye.

498
00:18:38,552 --> 00:18:40,162
So, do you need help
with anything?

499
00:18:40,206 --> 00:18:41,250
No,

500
00:18:41,294 --> 00:18:42,773
but I am curious about

501
00:18:42,817 --> 00:18:45,036
how you plan to investigate
these suspects.

502
00:18:47,822 --> 00:18:49,780
So this Greer guy
is on your list,

503
00:18:49,824 --> 00:18:51,956
but the husband's gotta
be on there, too, right?

504
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:53,784
Especially if this is a copy
of the Wallace murder.

505
00:18:53,828 --> 00:18:56,178
No. Gerald adored Mamie.

506
00:18:56,222 --> 00:18:58,137
Besides, I don't think
he'd copy a crime

507
00:18:58,180 --> 00:18:59,790
that pointed to himself
as the culprit.

508
00:18:59,834 --> 00:19:01,444
But, see, if this were
a plot in one of my novels,

509
00:19:01,488 --> 00:19:02,837
I'd have him copy it

510
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,273
because no one would think
he'd point to himself.

511
00:19:04,317 --> 00:19:05,796
Oh, that's diabolical.

512
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:06,971
Which is not Gerald.

513
00:19:07,015 --> 00:19:08,147
What about Mr. Sunshine?

514
00:19:08,190 --> 00:19:09,626
The guy who had to
have his lawyer present.

515
00:19:09,670 --> 00:19:12,194
Oh, if you're talking
about Perry Dell, I believe...

516
00:19:12,238 --> 00:19:13,456
Yeah.

517
00:19:13,500 --> 00:19:16,546
You know, I think
this is club business.

518
00:19:16,590 --> 00:19:20,159
So, if you don't
need me for anything, I'm...

519
00:19:20,202 --> 00:19:21,899
I'm starting to think
that I'm a suspect, too,

520
00:19:21,943 --> 00:19:24,163
given the way the police
were treating me last night.

521
00:19:24,206 --> 00:19:25,990
How do you feel about that?

522
00:19:26,034 --> 00:19:27,340
Are you kidding me?

523
00:19:27,383 --> 00:19:29,211
It was the greatest night
I've had in months.

524
00:19:29,255 --> 00:19:30,299
The only problem is,

525
00:19:30,343 --> 00:19:31,344
I have no one
to confirm my alibi

526
00:19:31,387 --> 00:19:33,041
between 6:00
and 6:30, so...

527
00:19:36,349 --> 00:19:37,567
Okay...

528
00:19:37,611 --> 00:19:39,178
I know you're not

529
00:19:39,221 --> 00:19:40,309
the most likely suspect.

530
00:19:40,353 --> 00:19:41,180
You did just move here.

531
00:19:42,398 --> 00:19:44,052
I thought you came
for gourmet goodies.

532
00:19:47,142 --> 00:19:49,492
Have you ever tried this
with peanut butter?

533
00:19:49,536 --> 00:19:51,538
It will change your life.

534
00:19:53,714 --> 00:19:55,498
This is very scientific.

535
00:19:55,542 --> 00:19:57,065
You stick it in a bowl,

536
00:19:57,108 --> 00:20:00,111
you swirl it around,
the swirl is very important.

537
00:20:00,155 --> 00:20:02,026
The cereal sticks
to the peanut butter,

538
00:20:02,070 --> 00:20:03,941
and voila.

539
00:20:03,985 --> 00:20:06,248
Sweet crunchy heaven.

540
00:20:06,292 --> 00:20:08,381
Mm.

541
00:20:15,170 --> 00:20:16,519
Oh...

542
00:20:16,563 --> 00:20:18,434
this is so wrong,

543
00:20:18,478 --> 00:20:19,740
but it is so good.

544
00:20:19,783 --> 00:20:21,132
All the best things are.

545
00:20:21,176 --> 00:20:22,351
Mm.

546
00:20:22,395 --> 00:20:24,092
So, I'm curious,

547
00:20:24,135 --> 00:20:26,355
when did you first
get into mysteries?

548
00:20:26,399 --> 00:20:27,791
Mm.

549
00:20:27,835 --> 00:20:29,619
When I was 12.

550
00:20:29,663 --> 00:20:31,055
My parents were
getting a divorce,

551
00:20:31,099 --> 00:20:33,232
and I found this book
at the library

552
00:20:33,275 --> 00:20:34,363
about the Hall Mills case.

553
00:20:34,407 --> 00:20:36,235
The choir singer
and the minister?

554
00:20:36,278 --> 00:20:38,280
Yeah, it was such a puzzle.

555
00:20:38,324 --> 00:20:39,412
There were so many odd clues
and pieces,

556
00:20:39,455 --> 00:20:40,761
it was so absorbing.

557
00:20:40,804 --> 00:20:43,372
And it gave me something
to focus on,

558
00:20:43,416 --> 00:20:44,939
just something
that felt important,

559
00:20:44,982 --> 00:20:46,593
with life and death stakes.

560
00:20:47,985 --> 00:20:49,378
How about you?

561
00:20:49,422 --> 00:20:52,163
I was a teenager.

562
00:20:52,207 --> 00:20:54,427
My brother had gone off to war,

563
00:20:54,470 --> 00:20:57,168
and when he came back,
he was a different guy.

564
00:20:57,212 --> 00:21:00,302
I needed something
to escape into,

565
00:21:00,346 --> 00:21:03,305
and that's when I discovered
"In Cold Blood."

566
00:21:03,349 --> 00:21:06,134
Truman Capote.

567
00:21:06,177 --> 00:21:08,267
"The village of Holcomb

568
00:21:08,310 --> 00:21:11,139
"stands on the high wheat plains
of western Kansas,

569
00:21:11,182 --> 00:21:12,619
a lonesome area..."

570
00:21:12,662 --> 00:21:13,663
[reciting together]:
"...That others call

571
00:21:13,707 --> 00:21:15,622
'out there.'"

572
00:21:15,665 --> 00:21:17,406
See, nothing is too terrible

573
00:21:17,450 --> 00:21:19,669
if it can be wrestled into
a pleasing sentence.

574
00:21:19,713 --> 00:21:21,758
Well, you write a lot of those.

575
00:21:21,802 --> 00:21:23,325
[chuckles modestly]
Thanks.

576
00:21:23,369 --> 00:21:25,284
So, why doesn't my favorite
writer have an alibi?

577
00:21:26,676 --> 00:21:27,938
[sighs]

578
00:21:27,982 --> 00:21:29,679
Look, if you really
want to know,

579
00:21:29,723 --> 00:21:31,202
and you're not busy
Friday night...

580
00:21:31,246 --> 00:21:32,465
[door opens]

581
00:21:32,508 --> 00:21:33,770
Aurora?

582
00:21:33,814 --> 00:21:35,206
I got your message
about the package.

583
00:21:35,250 --> 00:21:36,425
Oh...

584
00:21:36,469 --> 00:21:37,948
You have company.

585
00:21:37,992 --> 00:21:38,993
Hi.

586
00:21:39,036 --> 00:21:40,429
[chuckling]

587
00:21:40,473 --> 00:21:41,952
Well, I'm glad

588
00:21:41,996 --> 00:21:42,997
the two of you
are getting acquainted.

589
00:21:44,172 --> 00:21:46,130
Oh, but shame on you, Robin,

590
00:21:46,174 --> 00:21:47,480
for not telling me
you're this big famous writer

591
00:21:47,523 --> 00:21:49,308
when you came to see
my little townhouse.

592
00:21:49,351 --> 00:21:51,005
Believe me,

593
00:21:51,048 --> 00:21:53,050
fame is in the eye
of the beholder.

594
00:21:53,094 --> 00:21:54,356
Here, Mother.

595
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,619
It was left on my doorstep
when I got home.

596
00:21:56,663 --> 00:21:58,142
I know you're busy, though.

597
00:21:58,186 --> 00:21:59,709
This is your father's
return address.

598
00:21:59,753 --> 00:22:02,059
Why would he be sending it here?

599
00:22:02,103 --> 00:22:03,452
I don't know,

600
00:22:03,496 --> 00:22:05,454
but you can figure that out
when you go home...

601
00:22:05,498 --> 00:22:06,890
But you're opening it here.

602
00:22:10,894 --> 00:22:11,895
[gasping]

603
00:22:11,939 --> 00:22:14,463
Seashell candy.

604
00:22:14,507 --> 00:22:16,378
Aw...

605
00:22:16,422 --> 00:22:18,728
Remember when you're Aunt Neela
used to send us a box

606
00:22:18,772 --> 00:22:19,729
every Christmas?

607
00:22:19,773 --> 00:22:21,165
I always loved it,

608
00:22:21,209 --> 00:22:23,820
because it reminded me
of our time at the beach.

609
00:22:23,864 --> 00:22:25,822
How thoughtful of your dad
to remember this.

610
00:22:25,866 --> 00:22:27,998
That's not like Dad,

611
00:22:28,042 --> 00:22:28,999
and it's not Christmas.

612
00:22:29,043 --> 00:22:30,218
"I hope you and Aurora

613
00:22:30,261 --> 00:22:31,654
enjoy these chocolates."

614
00:22:31,698 --> 00:22:33,569
Well, I know I will.

615
00:22:33,613 --> 00:22:35,179
I hope this one is a caramel.

616
00:22:35,223 --> 00:22:36,572
Mother, stop!

617
00:22:36,616 --> 00:22:39,662
It's not your job
to police my calories, Aurora.

618
00:22:39,706 --> 00:22:42,839
No, I don't think
these candies are from Dad.

619
00:22:42,883 --> 00:22:44,188
He never calls me Aurora.

620
00:22:44,232 --> 00:22:45,146
Never.

621
00:22:47,583 --> 00:22:50,934
I think these chocolates
have been tampered with.

622
00:22:50,978 --> 00:22:52,414
Look.

623
00:22:52,458 --> 00:22:54,111
There's a hole
right at the bottom.

624
00:22:54,155 --> 00:22:55,112
Let me see.

625
00:22:55,156 --> 00:22:56,549
[sniffing]

626
00:22:57,811 --> 00:22:59,987
These candies
have been poisoned.

627
00:23:10,650 --> 00:23:11,694
I just talked to Dad.

628
00:23:11,738 --> 00:23:12,956
He didn't send those candies.

629
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:14,436
Of course he didn't
send us poisoned candies.

630
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:15,611
I mean, as if what happened
with Mamie Wright

631
00:23:15,655 --> 00:23:17,047
wasn't bad enough,

632
00:23:17,091 --> 00:23:18,527
but now this attempt on my life,

633
00:23:18,571 --> 00:23:20,268
on my daughter's life?

634
00:23:20,311 --> 00:23:21,312
Club members
are obviously being targeted,

635
00:23:21,356 --> 00:23:22,531
and their families.

636
00:23:22,575 --> 00:23:24,533
What is she doing?

637
00:23:24,577 --> 00:23:27,449
Uh, she's looking for books
on death by chocolate.

638
00:23:27,493 --> 00:23:30,060
First, we don't even know
if this chocolate was poisoned.

639
00:23:30,104 --> 00:23:31,322
Yeah, we kinda do.

640
00:23:31,366 --> 00:23:32,759
I mean, smell them,
they're noxious.

641
00:23:32,802 --> 00:23:34,064
It's got to be poison.

642
00:23:34,108 --> 00:23:35,718
Maybe we should let
the labs determine that.

643
00:23:35,762 --> 00:23:36,763
[Aida sighs]
You know,

644
00:23:36,806 --> 00:23:38,112
I find your attitude
very cavalier.

645
00:23:38,155 --> 00:23:40,636
We could be lying dead
on the floor right now.

646
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,769
I'm sorry,
Mrs. Teagarden.

647
00:23:42,812 --> 00:23:44,814
I guess my lack
of sleep is showing.

648
00:23:44,858 --> 00:23:46,468
My baby is teething,

649
00:23:46,512 --> 00:23:48,078
I have statements to go through,

650
00:23:48,122 --> 00:23:49,471
and 10 alibis to pin down,

651
00:23:49,515 --> 00:23:50,951
including yours.

652
00:23:50,994 --> 00:23:51,995
Plus, I had to leave
a media briefing

653
00:23:52,039 --> 00:23:53,475
to come here.

654
00:23:53,519 --> 00:23:55,303
Wait, what?
A media briefing?

655
00:23:55,346 --> 00:23:56,435
Is there something new
about the case?

656
00:23:56,478 --> 00:23:58,567
Do you have a press badge?

657
00:23:58,611 --> 00:23:59,699
No, I don't think so.

658
00:24:02,005 --> 00:24:03,267
Mrs. Teagarden,
I promise you,

659
00:24:03,311 --> 00:24:04,268
if the labs come back positive

660
00:24:04,312 --> 00:24:05,444
for a toxic substance,

661
00:24:05,487 --> 00:24:07,794
I will be doing
a full investigation.

662
00:24:12,494 --> 00:24:15,279
Roe, just in case,

663
00:24:15,323 --> 00:24:17,934
you should warn the rest
of your club members

664
00:24:17,978 --> 00:24:21,329
to stay alert.

665
00:24:24,985 --> 00:24:26,203
There's so much to go through.

666
00:24:26,247 --> 00:24:27,596
Uh...

667
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:29,032
I'll give you a hand.

668
00:24:29,076 --> 00:24:31,470
Uh... okay.

669
00:24:31,513 --> 00:24:33,515
I knew that this club of yours
was bad for the soul,

670
00:24:33,559 --> 00:24:35,343
but now it's worse than that.

671
00:24:35,386 --> 00:24:36,649
You can start with these two.

672
00:24:36,692 --> 00:24:38,999
That club has put
your life in danger, Aurora.

673
00:24:39,042 --> 00:24:41,480
And it put
your life in danger, too,

674
00:24:41,523 --> 00:24:42,959
which is making me furious.

675
00:24:43,003 --> 00:24:44,657
I need to figure out
who is going after us.

676
00:24:44,700 --> 00:24:46,485
No! You need to resign
from that club

677
00:24:46,528 --> 00:24:48,138
and stay with me
until this nightmare is over.

678
00:24:48,182 --> 00:24:50,227
Mother, I am not
walking away from this.

679
00:24:50,271 --> 00:24:52,229
You know, uh,

680
00:24:52,273 --> 00:24:53,622
I'm right across the street.

681
00:24:53,666 --> 00:24:55,494
I can keep an eye on her
if it makes you feel better.

682
00:24:55,537 --> 00:24:56,843
Thank you,

683
00:24:56,886 --> 00:24:58,105
but my daughter
is obviously not interested

684
00:24:58,148 --> 00:24:59,672
in doing anything
that makes me feel better.

685
00:24:59,715 --> 00:25:01,500
I'm wasting my breath.

686
00:25:04,372 --> 00:25:05,634
[door closes]

687
00:25:05,678 --> 00:25:07,549
In the "none of my business"
department,

688
00:25:07,593 --> 00:25:10,073
shouldn't you go after her?

689
00:25:10,117 --> 00:25:12,859
I'd just be wasting my breath.

690
00:25:12,902 --> 00:25:14,208
Right.

691
00:25:17,385 --> 00:25:22,259
What if she'd eaten
those chocolates?

692
00:25:22,303 --> 00:25:25,001
But she didn't
because you stopped it,

693
00:25:25,045 --> 00:25:27,830
because you're smart,
and sharp, and...

694
00:25:27,874 --> 00:25:31,660
And too emotional.

695
00:25:31,704 --> 00:25:33,227
[sighs]

696
00:25:33,270 --> 00:25:36,752
Teagarden women
don't get emotional.

697
00:25:36,796 --> 00:25:37,840
[sighs]

698
00:25:37,884 --> 00:25:39,363
We get to work.

699
00:25:39,407 --> 00:25:40,669
Right.

700
00:25:40,713 --> 00:25:41,931
We problem-solve.

701
00:25:41,975 --> 00:25:43,019
[distantly] Roe?

702
00:25:43,063 --> 00:25:45,065
Yeah, in here!

703
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:47,197
Oh, hi.

704
00:25:47,241 --> 00:25:48,459
Hi.

705
00:25:48,503 --> 00:25:50,113
The police dropped a bomb
at the briefing.

706
00:25:50,157 --> 00:25:51,201
They found
one of Mamie's earrings

707
00:25:51,245 --> 00:25:54,117
in Melanie Clark's car.

708
00:25:57,904 --> 00:25:59,166
Where is she going?

709
00:26:00,428 --> 00:26:02,212
Roe, what are you...

710
00:26:02,256 --> 00:26:04,911
Did you know Mamie's body
was missing an earring?

711
00:26:04,954 --> 00:26:06,042
No, they hadn't released
that information

712
00:26:06,086 --> 00:26:08,088
until just now.

713
00:26:09,829 --> 00:26:11,961
Bankston!

714
00:26:12,005 --> 00:26:13,223
Bankston...

715
00:26:13,267 --> 00:26:14,921
Did you know the police...

716
00:26:14,964 --> 00:26:15,922
Yeah, I just heard.

717
00:26:15,965 --> 00:26:17,576
I'm headed to the station now.

718
00:26:17,619 --> 00:26:18,794
Do you have a comment
for the paper?

719
00:26:18,838 --> 00:26:21,231
Sally, now is not the time
to be a reporter.

720
00:26:21,275 --> 00:26:22,406
Since when are you
the boss of me?

721
00:26:22,450 --> 00:26:23,407
Know what, I do have a comment...

722
00:26:23,451 --> 00:26:25,627
It's absurd to suspect Melanie.

723
00:26:25,671 --> 00:26:27,586
Okay? She left work
just before 6:00.

724
00:26:27,629 --> 00:26:28,717
There's no way
she could kill Mamie

725
00:26:28,761 --> 00:26:29,718
and then be home in time

726
00:26:29,762 --> 00:26:30,719
for me to pick her up at 6:30.

727
00:26:30,763 --> 00:26:31,720
It's impossible.

728
00:26:31,764 --> 00:26:33,113
Whoever did this

729
00:26:33,156 --> 00:26:33,983
is trying to set up
a member of your club

730
00:26:34,027 --> 00:26:35,071
to take the blame.

731
00:26:35,115 --> 00:26:36,507
Yeah, I think that's obvious.

732
00:26:37,770 --> 00:26:38,684
I gotta go.

733
00:26:45,778 --> 00:26:47,257
This is not good.

734
00:26:47,301 --> 00:26:49,346
You don't even know about
the poisoned candy yet.

735
00:26:49,390 --> 00:26:50,521
Poisoned candy?

736
00:26:50,565 --> 00:26:52,480
Okay, we need to call
a club meeting.

737
00:26:56,223 --> 00:26:57,659
She was crumpled
like a rag doll,

738
00:26:57,703 --> 00:26:59,661
there in front of the fireplace.

739
00:26:59,705 --> 00:27:02,316
I went over to get the keys,

740
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,101
and then the door was open...

741
00:27:05,145 --> 00:27:06,450
Does Lynn know we're meeting?

742
00:27:06,494 --> 00:27:07,626
Yeah, I told her,

743
00:27:07,669 --> 00:27:08,627
and I'll have to tell her

744
00:27:08,670 --> 00:27:09,540
everything that's said here.

745
00:27:09,584 --> 00:27:10,803
Good.

746
00:27:11,978 --> 00:27:13,109
Why'd you bring the writer?

747
00:27:13,153 --> 00:27:15,198
Seems to me
he's a likely suspect.

748
00:27:15,242 --> 00:27:17,505
Which is why
he's a part of this.

749
00:27:20,900 --> 00:27:24,338
Thank you all for coming
on such short notice.

750
00:27:30,736 --> 00:27:34,043
First, I...

751
00:27:34,087 --> 00:27:35,784
I just want Gerald to know
how sorry we are

752
00:27:35,828 --> 00:27:37,133
for your loss.

753
00:27:37,177 --> 00:27:39,353
Mamie was a good person.

754
00:27:59,373 --> 00:28:00,243
I didn't do anything to her.

755
00:28:01,723 --> 00:28:02,681
I don't know how that earring

756
00:28:02,724 --> 00:28:04,247
got in my car.

757
00:28:04,291 --> 00:28:05,596
Because someone
planted it there,

758
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,033
that's why.

759
00:28:07,076 --> 00:28:08,338
Look, anybody who knows you

760
00:28:08,382 --> 00:28:09,383
knows how ridiculous
it is to think that...

761
00:28:09,426 --> 00:28:11,864
This is uncomfortable
for all of us.

762
00:28:13,735 --> 00:28:17,608
What happened to Mamie
was horrible,

763
00:28:17,652 --> 00:28:19,262
and it's hard to imagine it
happening again,

764
00:28:19,306 --> 00:28:20,699
but it could.

765
00:28:20,742 --> 00:28:23,397
A package was mailed
to Roe's house.

766
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,616
It was a box of candy

767
00:28:25,660 --> 00:28:26,705
that she thinks was poisoned.

768
00:28:26,748 --> 00:28:27,618
If our lab confirms it,

769
00:28:27,662 --> 00:28:29,055
then we have to assume

770
00:28:29,098 --> 00:28:31,884
that all of you here
are potential targets.

771
00:28:31,927 --> 00:28:34,538
And that we're all suspects.

772
00:28:34,582 --> 00:28:35,539
Why would you say that?

773
00:28:35,583 --> 00:28:36,584
Why should it be one of us?

774
00:28:36,627 --> 00:28:37,846
[Arthur]: Well,
whoever killed Mamie

775
00:28:37,890 --> 00:28:38,891
did so in a way

776
00:28:38,934 --> 00:28:40,066
that replicated
the Wallace case.

777
00:28:40,109 --> 00:28:41,458
[roe]: Right, I mean,
who else would know

778
00:28:41,502 --> 00:28:43,896
that we were talking about
that case on that night?

779
00:28:43,939 --> 00:28:46,289
Or be familiar with it?

780
00:28:46,333 --> 00:28:48,422
But no one knows for certain
how Julia Wallace was killed.

781
00:28:48,465 --> 00:28:49,597
Nonsense.

782
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,381
- She was bludgeoned.
- With what?

783
00:28:51,425 --> 00:28:52,905
The weapon was never found.

784
00:28:52,948 --> 00:28:53,906
Well, every author I've read

785
00:28:53,949 --> 00:28:54,863
says it was the fire poker.

786
00:28:54,907 --> 00:28:56,082
Well, actually,

787
00:28:56,125 --> 00:28:58,040
Scotland Yard
has a different theory.

788
00:28:58,084 --> 00:28:59,912
Come on, the poker was missing
from Mamie's house.

789
00:28:59,955 --> 00:29:02,392
It had to be the poker.

790
00:29:02,436 --> 00:29:04,133
I don't know why you people
always dismiss my opinions?

791
00:29:04,177 --> 00:29:05,656
Okay,

792
00:29:05,700 --> 00:29:07,267
we're getting off track.

793
00:29:07,310 --> 00:29:09,138
We're also considering
the possibility

794
00:29:09,182 --> 00:29:11,314
that the guilty party is someone
connected to a group member.

795
00:29:11,358 --> 00:29:12,751
Right,

796
00:29:12,794 --> 00:29:14,796
maybe someone that has
access to our emails,

797
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,494
maybe someone
one of you talked to?

798
00:29:17,538 --> 00:29:19,583
Did anyone here
discuss the Wallace case

799
00:29:19,627 --> 00:29:21,107
with a friend, a family member?

800
00:29:21,150 --> 00:29:22,499
Or an enemy?

801
00:29:22,543 --> 00:29:23,892
Wait a minute,

802
00:29:23,936 --> 00:29:25,589
is everything we're saying going
in the paper?

803
00:29:25,633 --> 00:29:28,157
Because if it is,
I need to leave.

804
00:29:28,201 --> 00:29:30,638
These stories could
hurt my business, Sally.

805
00:29:30,681 --> 00:29:32,683
But this is the biggest story
I've ever had.

806
00:29:32,727 --> 00:29:34,468
He's right.

807
00:29:34,511 --> 00:29:36,470
This needs to be off the record.

808
00:29:38,298 --> 00:29:40,517
Okay, we need to figure out
who could be doing this,

809
00:29:40,561 --> 00:29:41,910
because if we don't,

810
00:29:41,954 --> 00:29:44,304
I'm afraid that someone else
might be targeted.

811
00:29:54,531 --> 00:29:55,663
What are you all
looking at me for?

812
00:29:55,706 --> 00:29:57,230
I didn't do anything.

813
00:29:58,492 --> 00:30:00,276
I hate to say it,

814
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,539
but if this club
is putting us in danger,

815
00:30:02,583 --> 00:30:05,020
maybe we should think
about disbanding it.

816
00:30:05,064 --> 00:30:06,979
Well, I don't care,

817
00:30:07,022 --> 00:30:08,110
I'm quitting anyway,

818
00:30:08,154 --> 00:30:10,939
I have better things to do.

819
00:30:10,983 --> 00:30:13,202
So don't anyone
come try to kill me,

820
00:30:13,246 --> 00:30:14,377
'cause I'll be waiting for you.

821
00:30:30,916 --> 00:30:32,352
Gerald...

822
00:30:34,876 --> 00:30:38,880
I have to trust the police
to find the right person.

823
00:30:55,941 --> 00:30:57,203
After what Melanie
has been put through,

824
00:30:57,246 --> 00:31:00,206
I'm not sure how much faith
I have in the police.

825
00:31:00,249 --> 00:31:03,862
I think we've had enough
for one day, though.

826
00:31:08,475 --> 00:31:10,216
Well, I guess

827
00:31:10,259 --> 00:31:12,740
the Real Murders Club
is adjourned.

828
00:31:19,268 --> 00:31:21,183
Did you see Gerald's face?

829
00:31:21,227 --> 00:31:22,445
I have to solve this.

830
00:31:22,489 --> 00:31:24,708
No, Roe,

831
00:31:24,752 --> 00:31:26,754
you have to let
the police handle this.

832
00:31:26,797 --> 00:31:29,670
Whoever did this to Mamie
is seriously twisted.

833
00:31:30,976 --> 00:31:32,542
I have to go.

834
00:31:32,586 --> 00:31:34,718
- Bye, Robin.
- Bye.

835
00:31:34,762 --> 00:31:35,894
That's the last of them.

836
00:31:35,937 --> 00:31:37,417
Great.

837
00:31:37,460 --> 00:31:39,027
Thanks for helping.

838
00:31:39,071 --> 00:31:41,464
I haven't done anything yet.

839
00:31:42,770 --> 00:31:45,381
You know, I figured it out,

840
00:31:45,425 --> 00:31:47,557
You're like the heroine
in one of my novels.

841
00:31:47,601 --> 00:31:50,212
Smart, determined,

842
00:31:50,256 --> 00:31:51,822
gorgeous.

843
00:31:51,866 --> 00:31:54,651
If you think flirting with me
is going to distract me,

844
00:31:54,695 --> 00:31:55,609
you're wrong.

845
00:31:57,002 --> 00:31:58,786
What am I distracting you from?

846
00:31:58,829 --> 00:32:00,919
From wondering why you're here.

847
00:32:00,962 --> 00:32:02,398
You, the man without an alibi.

848
00:32:02,442 --> 00:32:03,922
[chuckles]

849
00:32:03,965 --> 00:32:06,576
You're really hung up
on this whole alibi thing.

850
00:32:06,620 --> 00:32:08,578
And you keep avoiding it.

851
00:32:08,622 --> 00:32:10,972
Maybe you're here because
you're keeping an eye on us,

852
00:32:11,016 --> 00:32:13,148
so we don't figure out
the truth about you.

853
00:32:13,192 --> 00:32:15,107
The truth is,

854
00:32:15,150 --> 00:32:16,760
is that I write mystery novels
for a living,

855
00:32:16,804 --> 00:32:18,588
but I never get to see one

856
00:32:18,632 --> 00:32:20,939
carried out in real life.

857
00:32:22,679 --> 00:32:24,203
Why don't I believe you?

858
00:32:25,726 --> 00:32:27,075
Okay, you got me.

859
00:32:27,119 --> 00:32:28,424
I'm actually here

860
00:32:28,468 --> 00:32:31,993
because I really,
really like you.

861
00:32:32,037 --> 00:32:33,125
Now, I'll let you decide

862
00:32:33,168 --> 00:32:34,996
whether that was meant
to distract you,

863
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:36,955
or if it just happens
to be true.

864
00:32:41,394 --> 00:32:45,137
What if it's both?

865
00:32:48,140 --> 00:32:50,446
Sally, I need to talk to you.

866
00:32:50,490 --> 00:32:52,883
Oh, I knew you'd be mad
as soon as you saw the paper.

867
00:32:52,927 --> 00:32:54,624
No, this is about Robin Daniels.

868
00:32:54,668 --> 00:32:55,669
Yesterday he said...

869
00:32:55,712 --> 00:32:57,540
Wait, what would I be mad about?

870
00:32:57,584 --> 00:32:59,020
You know,
I was just doing my job.

871
00:32:59,064 --> 00:33:00,979
The public has a right to know
exactly what's going on.

872
00:33:01,022 --> 00:33:02,023
[disconnects call]

873
00:33:03,938 --> 00:33:04,895
[beeps phone off]

874
00:33:04,939 --> 00:33:06,506
[sighing heavily]

875
00:33:14,688 --> 00:33:16,037
I see

876
00:33:16,081 --> 00:33:18,735
you're making a spectacle
of yourself again.

877
00:33:18,779 --> 00:33:20,999
The reporter quoted me
without my permission.

878
00:33:21,042 --> 00:33:23,305
Hmm. "By Sally Allison."

879
00:33:23,349 --> 00:33:24,654
Bud Allison's daughter?

880
00:33:24,698 --> 00:33:26,134
Isn't she your friend?

881
00:33:26,178 --> 00:33:28,006
[scoffs] Some "friend."

882
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:42,672
Hey, Mr. Allison.

883
00:33:42,716 --> 00:33:44,718
Hey, Roe.

884
00:33:44,761 --> 00:33:46,198
Oh, let me help you
with that door.

885
00:33:46,241 --> 00:33:47,547
Oh, thanks.

886
00:33:50,289 --> 00:33:51,507
Geez.

887
00:33:51,551 --> 00:33:52,682
That door is getting worse.

888
00:33:52,726 --> 00:33:54,162
I know.

889
00:33:54,206 --> 00:33:56,425
I almost got myself
locked in there last week.

890
00:33:56,469 --> 00:33:58,340
Yeah, I'm surprised
to see you here today.

891
00:33:58,384 --> 00:34:00,038
Don't you usually
volunteer on Wednesdays?

892
00:34:00,081 --> 00:34:01,169
Yeah, well,

893
00:34:01,213 --> 00:34:02,344
what with Sally's story
in the paper

894
00:34:02,388 --> 00:34:03,693
this morning,

895
00:34:03,737 --> 00:34:04,694
the phone's been
ringing off the hook.

896
00:34:04,738 --> 00:34:06,435
I had to get some peace.

897
00:34:06,479 --> 00:34:09,525
I see you've had a peek at it.

898
00:34:09,569 --> 00:34:10,613
Oh, yeah, I've read it.

899
00:34:10,657 --> 00:34:13,616
Yeah.

900
00:34:18,317 --> 00:34:20,971
I mean, why shouldn't I
go out with him, right?

901
00:34:21,015 --> 00:34:22,190
So I told Deborah,

902
00:34:22,234 --> 00:34:23,887
you get that man
over to my house pronto

903
00:34:23,931 --> 00:34:25,802
before he changes his mind!

904
00:34:25,846 --> 00:34:26,803
[laughing]

905
00:34:26,847 --> 00:34:27,804
Allison!

906
00:34:27,848 --> 00:34:28,892
Yeah?

907
00:34:28,936 --> 00:34:29,937
Quit socializing.

908
00:34:29,980 --> 00:34:31,112
Grab Paul,
get yourself downtown.

909
00:34:31,156 --> 00:34:33,506
Something big is going on.
Fourth and Pine.

910
00:34:35,769 --> 00:34:36,770
[giggles]

911
00:34:41,166 --> 00:34:42,819
[cell phone rings]

912
00:34:47,607 --> 00:34:49,087
Hi, it's Sally.

913
00:34:49,130 --> 00:34:51,219
Leave a message.[beep]

914
00:34:51,263 --> 00:34:52,742
Hmm, so you're not picking up.

915
00:34:52,786 --> 00:34:54,483
Well, call me back.

916
00:34:54,527 --> 00:34:56,094
I need to know
if I'm your friend

917
00:34:56,137 --> 00:34:57,225
or your source.

918
00:34:57,269 --> 00:34:58,574
[beeps phone off]

919
00:34:58,618 --> 00:34:59,662
Lynn.

920
00:35:01,142 --> 00:35:02,491
You must not be happy
about the story in the paper.

921
00:35:02,535 --> 00:35:04,754
Haven't seen it,
don't wanna see it.

922
00:35:04,798 --> 00:35:06,669
I'm here because we got
the labs back on the candy.

923
00:35:06,713 --> 00:35:09,455
There were no
fingerprints on the box

924
00:35:09,498 --> 00:35:10,586
other than you
and your mother's,

925
00:35:10,630 --> 00:35:12,588
but we did get
a positive for poison.

926
00:35:12,632 --> 00:35:13,981
[gasps]

927
00:35:14,024 --> 00:35:16,331
Rat poison to be exact.

928
00:35:16,375 --> 00:35:18,159
You were right.

929
00:35:18,203 --> 00:35:20,118
Someone was out to harm you
and your mother.

930
00:35:21,206 --> 00:35:22,598
You mean kill us,

931
00:35:22,642 --> 00:35:24,818
and they could be
going after other club members.

932
00:35:26,472 --> 00:35:27,603
[hissing] Aurora!

933
00:35:27,647 --> 00:35:29,779
Using your inside voice
at the library

934
00:35:29,823 --> 00:35:30,780
might set a better example

935
00:35:30,824 --> 00:35:31,955
for your friend.

936
00:35:31,999 --> 00:35:33,783
Oh, we're not friends.

937
00:35:33,827 --> 00:35:35,568
Well, good for you.

938
00:35:38,701 --> 00:35:40,355
Anyway, I've spoken with
my patrol sergeant,

939
00:35:40,399 --> 00:35:41,835
and he's agreed to have his cars

940
00:35:41,878 --> 00:35:43,445
do swings by
your members' houses,

941
00:35:43,489 --> 00:35:44,664
just to keep an eye out.

942
00:35:45,926 --> 00:35:47,057
That's it?

943
00:35:47,101 --> 00:35:48,624
[cell phone rings]

944
00:35:48,668 --> 00:35:49,799
Would you let your mother
know the results?

945
00:35:49,843 --> 00:35:51,061
I have to take this.

946
00:35:51,105 --> 00:35:52,019
Liggett-Smith...

947
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,980
What?

948
00:35:57,024 --> 00:35:57,938
I'm on my way.

949
00:36:04,727 --> 00:36:05,815
So, it was rat poison
in the candy,

950
00:36:05,859 --> 00:36:07,469
wasn't it?

951
00:36:07,513 --> 00:36:08,470
How'd you know?

952
00:36:08,514 --> 00:36:10,080
I've become all too familiar

953
00:36:10,124 --> 00:36:11,647
with gruesome things...

954
00:36:11,691 --> 00:36:12,866
for which I blame you.

955
00:36:12,909 --> 00:36:13,997
Show her.

956
00:36:14,041 --> 00:36:15,564
This is out of print.

957
00:36:15,608 --> 00:36:16,826
I only have it

958
00:36:16,870 --> 00:36:19,568
because there's a chapter
on Lizzie Borden.

959
00:36:19,612 --> 00:36:23,006
Ever hear of Cordelia Botkin?

960
00:36:23,050 --> 00:36:25,008
Sounds vaguely familiar.

961
00:36:25,052 --> 00:36:26,401
1878.

962
00:36:26,445 --> 00:36:28,751
She was having an affair,
a wealthy businessman.

963
00:36:28,795 --> 00:36:30,536
He refused to leave his wife,

964
00:36:30,579 --> 00:36:32,320
so Cordelia mailed the wife

965
00:36:32,364 --> 00:36:34,322
a box of bonbons.

966
00:36:34,366 --> 00:36:35,410
Filled with rat poison.

967
00:36:35,454 --> 00:36:37,064
Now I remember.

968
00:36:37,107 --> 00:36:38,674
It's such an obscure case,
I'd almost forgotten about it.

969
00:36:38,718 --> 00:36:39,893
The wife died.

970
00:36:39,936 --> 00:36:41,373
And so did her mother.

971
00:36:41,416 --> 00:36:43,505
That's why the chocolates
were addressed to you.

972
00:36:43,549 --> 00:36:44,941
[cell phone rings]

973
00:36:44,985 --> 00:36:46,204
Okay, we have to let
the club members know

974
00:36:46,247 --> 00:36:48,249
about the results.

975
00:36:48,293 --> 00:36:49,598
Excuse me.

976
00:36:49,642 --> 00:36:51,078
Robin, hi.

977
00:36:51,121 --> 00:36:52,862
Uh, now is not
a really good time.

978
00:36:52,906 --> 00:36:54,777
Are you watching the news?

979
00:36:54,821 --> 00:36:55,996
What news?

980
00:36:57,258 --> 00:36:58,781
...Morrison Pettigrue

981
00:36:58,825 --> 00:37:01,523
had recently announced
his candidacy for mayor,

982
00:37:01,567 --> 00:37:03,395
and police have, in fact,
ruled his death a homicide...

983
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:06,963
Could it be the same person?

984
00:37:07,007 --> 00:37:09,357
Could he be targeting people
outside of the club now?

985
00:37:09,401 --> 00:37:10,706
Look, there's Benjamin.

986
00:37:10,750 --> 00:37:12,142
...The body
was, in fact, discovered

987
00:37:12,186 --> 00:37:14,232
by Pettigrue's campaign manager, Benjamin Greer.

988
00:37:14,275 --> 00:37:15,842
Greer told police

989
00:37:15,885 --> 00:37:18,758
that he found Pettigrue inside a bathtub full of water,

990
00:37:18,801 --> 00:37:21,239
apparent stab wounds
in his chest

991
00:37:21,282 --> 00:37:23,719
and a number of papers
floating in the water.

992
00:37:23,763 --> 00:37:25,243
We will continue to bring you...

993
00:37:25,286 --> 00:37:27,245
I can't listen to any more.

994
00:37:27,288 --> 00:37:28,550
Papers floating on the water,

995
00:37:28,594 --> 00:37:29,551
why does that sound

996
00:37:29,595 --> 00:37:31,597
so familiar?

997
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:33,251
The Marat Assassination!

998
00:37:33,294 --> 00:37:34,252
The what?

999
00:37:34,295 --> 00:37:35,383
A famous case in Europe.

1000
00:37:35,427 --> 00:37:36,950
Oh, the one from the painting!

1001
00:37:36,993 --> 00:37:38,430
The French Revolution,
Jean-Paul Marat.

1002
00:37:38,473 --> 00:37:39,431
He was a politician...

1003
00:37:39,474 --> 00:37:41,128
Like Morrison Pettigrue.

1004
00:37:41,171 --> 00:37:42,912
Killed in the bathtub
by an assassin. Stabbed...

1005
00:37:42,956 --> 00:37:44,305
Like Morrison Pettigrue.

1006
00:37:44,349 --> 00:37:45,175
John, we have got to go
to the police station

1007
00:37:45,219 --> 00:37:46,264
and tell Lynn.

1008
00:37:47,439 --> 00:37:50,093
We should stop at my house,

1009
00:37:50,137 --> 00:37:51,617
I have a book on assassinations,

1010
00:37:51,660 --> 00:37:53,183
so Lynn can see
what we're talking about.

1011
00:37:53,227 --> 00:37:56,404
It's the 21st Century, John,
we can look it up online.

1012
00:37:56,448 --> 00:37:57,710
[metal clattering]

1013
00:38:04,325 --> 00:38:05,631
What do you want to bet

1014
00:38:05,674 --> 00:38:08,764
that's the knife
that killed Pettigrue?

1015
00:38:08,808 --> 00:38:10,288
[sighing sadly]

1016
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:14,509
[police radios squawk]

1017
00:38:18,557 --> 00:38:21,603
Sorry, guys. Lynn keeps
texting me questions to ask.

1018
00:38:21,647 --> 00:38:22,822
It's not a good week

1019
00:38:22,865 --> 00:38:23,692
for her to be the only
homicide detective

1020
00:38:23,736 --> 00:38:24,650
in Lawrenceton.

1021
00:38:24,693 --> 00:38:26,216
Two murders.

1022
00:38:26,260 --> 00:38:28,131
And one attempted,
me and my mother.

1023
00:38:28,175 --> 00:38:29,959
Yeah, so, uh,
you go out to your car.

1024
00:38:30,003 --> 00:38:31,439
Was it locked or unlocked?

1025
00:38:31,483 --> 00:38:33,485
Not sure, but I tend to lock it.

1026
00:38:35,748 --> 00:38:36,836
I didn't have
anything to do with

1027
00:38:36,879 --> 00:38:39,012
what happened to
that politician.

1028
00:38:39,055 --> 00:38:41,667
I was with Aida
until 10:00 last night.

1029
00:38:41,710 --> 00:38:43,495
The coroner is placing the time
of death at about midnight.

1030
00:38:43,538 --> 00:38:47,281
Which means John has no alibi.

1031
00:38:49,196 --> 00:38:50,328
I'm not offended
to be suspected,

1032
00:38:50,371 --> 00:38:51,546
but I'm very offended

1033
00:38:51,590 --> 00:38:52,808
to be thought of doing
such a poor job

1034
00:38:52,852 --> 00:38:55,158
as to leave the weapon
in my own car.

1035
00:38:55,202 --> 00:38:56,377
Okay, listen,

1036
00:38:56,421 --> 00:38:57,944
I'm sure that
the knife was planted.

1037
00:38:57,987 --> 00:38:58,684
But I still have to ask you
to come down to the station,

1038
00:38:58,727 --> 00:38:59,902
and get fingerprinted.

1039
00:38:59,946 --> 00:39:00,860
Roe, we've already
got yours on file.

1040
00:39:00,903 --> 00:39:02,252
Why do you need her prints?

1041
00:39:02,296 --> 00:39:04,646
Because they need to make sure

1042
00:39:04,690 --> 00:39:06,692
I'm not the one who planted it.

1043
00:39:12,524 --> 00:39:13,481
You know John.

1044
00:39:13,525 --> 00:39:15,265
He would never hurt anyone.

1045
00:39:15,309 --> 00:39:17,267
What about Lynn,
or Captain Burns?

1046
00:39:17,311 --> 00:39:20,358
Well, they know someone
is trying to run us ragged,

1047
00:39:20,401 --> 00:39:22,838
looking in all the wrong places.

1048
00:39:22,882 --> 00:39:26,189
A patrolman found
rat poison in my desk.

1049
00:39:26,233 --> 00:39:27,495
Whoever is doing this

1050
00:39:27,539 --> 00:39:29,018
wanted to make it look like

1051
00:39:29,062 --> 00:39:30,193
you're trying to poison me?

1052
00:39:30,237 --> 00:39:32,195
Would have been more believable

1053
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,067
if they found the poison
in my desk.

1054
00:39:35,242 --> 00:39:36,374
[laughs mirthlessly]
You're funny.

1055
00:39:37,723 --> 00:39:39,072
Have you told them yet?

1056
00:39:43,163 --> 00:39:44,512
See here,

1057
00:39:44,556 --> 00:39:47,210
Marat's papers were found
floating in the tub.

1058
00:39:47,254 --> 00:39:48,864
Same as Pettigrue.

1059
00:39:48,908 --> 00:39:50,300
So the question is,

1060
00:39:50,344 --> 00:39:51,606
was Pettigrue chosen

1061
00:39:51,650 --> 00:39:53,260
because Benjamin is in the club,

1062
00:39:53,303 --> 00:39:55,044
or because Pettigrue
fit the profile

1063
00:39:55,088 --> 00:39:56,437
of a famous victim?

1064
00:39:56,481 --> 00:39:57,873
If it's the second one,

1065
00:39:57,917 --> 00:40:00,223
then anyone in town
could be a potential target.

1066
00:40:00,267 --> 00:40:01,616
Well, so far,

1067
00:40:01,660 --> 00:40:02,617
the copycats have been
related to club members.

1068
00:40:02,661 --> 00:40:03,966
And I'm still
trying to figure out

1069
00:40:04,010 --> 00:40:05,794
if there's a common thread
between the three.

1070
00:40:05,838 --> 00:40:07,883
Maybe they're from
the same book.

1071
00:40:07,927 --> 00:40:09,450
Or the same website.

1072
00:40:09,494 --> 00:40:10,408
I mean, it is the 21st Century.

1073
00:40:10,451 --> 00:40:12,148
I have been trying

1074
00:40:12,192 --> 00:40:13,106
to find a common thread,

1075
00:40:13,149 --> 00:40:14,107
a pattern...

1076
00:40:14,150 --> 00:40:15,151
Smith!

1077
00:40:15,195 --> 00:40:17,066
What is this?

1078
00:40:17,110 --> 00:40:18,807
Our suspects
making themselves at home?

1079
00:40:18,851 --> 00:40:21,114
Actually, they've been sharing
information with us.

1080
00:40:21,157 --> 00:40:22,594
Sounded to me like
you were sharing with them.

1081
00:40:23,943 --> 00:40:24,987
Did I authorize consultants

1082
00:40:25,031 --> 00:40:26,119
on this case?

1083
00:40:26,162 --> 00:40:27,729
No, sir.

1084
00:40:27,773 --> 00:40:28,948
Then get them out of here.

1085
00:40:32,212 --> 00:40:34,432
I've always loved
his sunny personality.

1086
00:40:34,475 --> 00:40:35,737
Yeah, okay,

1087
00:40:35,781 --> 00:40:36,956
let's give Detective Smith here

1088
00:40:36,999 --> 00:40:38,436
some space.

1089
00:40:44,050 --> 00:40:45,486
Lynn, there's something
I've got to know.

1090
00:40:45,530 --> 00:40:48,141
How high is Robin Daniels
on your suspect list?

1091
00:40:48,184 --> 00:40:49,447
I am not
discussing that with you...

1092
00:40:49,490 --> 00:40:51,100
I delivered your baby.

1093
00:40:51,144 --> 00:40:52,493
[sighs heavily]

1094
00:40:52,537 --> 00:40:54,321
I knew you were going to
play that card eventually.

1095
00:40:55,365 --> 00:40:56,584
Fine.

1096
00:40:56,628 --> 00:40:59,282
He was at the top
of the list for a while.

1097
00:40:59,326 --> 00:41:01,284
He had a weak alibi.

1098
00:41:01,328 --> 00:41:02,198
Said he was buying gas
at some station

1099
00:41:02,242 --> 00:41:03,373
miles out of town,

1100
00:41:03,417 --> 00:41:04,505
a station
he couldn't even remember.

1101
00:41:04,549 --> 00:41:06,812
But we found gas charges
on his card,

1102
00:41:06,855 --> 00:41:08,857
and the security cameras
picked him up there.

1103
00:41:08,901 --> 00:41:10,685
Daniels wasn't
anywhere near Mamie.

1104
00:41:13,340 --> 00:41:14,559
Thanks.

1105
00:41:19,389 --> 00:41:20,478
So, this is
my favorite restaurant

1106
00:41:20,521 --> 00:41:21,827
and candy store.

1107
00:41:21,870 --> 00:41:24,177
Wow. To what do I owe
the invitation?

1108
00:41:24,220 --> 00:41:26,614
Besides my obvious
obsession with sugar.

1109
00:41:26,658 --> 00:41:28,703
A peace offering?

1110
00:41:28,747 --> 00:41:29,835
Lynn told me today

1111
00:41:29,878 --> 00:41:31,793
that you've been
officially cleared.

1112
00:41:31,837 --> 00:41:33,229
[chuckles] Well,
that's a relief.

1113
00:41:33,273 --> 00:41:35,057
Are you surprised?

1114
00:41:35,101 --> 00:41:37,146
No, not really.

1115
00:41:37,190 --> 00:41:39,888
Look, can we at least agree that
I'm on your side?

1116
00:41:39,932 --> 00:41:42,238
I'm definitely getting
that impression.

1117
00:41:42,282 --> 00:41:43,370
Good.

1118
00:41:43,413 --> 00:41:45,328
So, tell your Marat theory.

1119
00:41:45,372 --> 00:41:47,809
I will, but first...

1120
00:41:47,853 --> 00:41:49,028
Salted caramels?

1121
00:41:49,071 --> 00:41:50,116
Yeah.

1122
00:41:54,250 --> 00:41:56,252
Mm!

1123
00:41:57,384 --> 00:41:58,341
Uh-huh.

1124
00:41:58,385 --> 00:41:59,255
Mm-hmm?

1125
00:42:08,787 --> 00:42:11,441
Lynn ruled out Robin
as a suspect.

1126
00:42:11,485 --> 00:42:13,574
You know, I think
he really likes you.

1127
00:42:13,618 --> 00:42:15,663
That's what he tells me.

1128
00:42:15,707 --> 00:42:17,404
Oh, really?

1129
00:42:17,447 --> 00:42:20,407
And do you like him?

1130
00:42:22,409 --> 00:42:24,411
Now that I know
he's not a devious criminal?

1131
00:42:24,454 --> 00:42:27,675
Yeah. I think I do.

1132
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:28,720
We speak the same language.

1133
00:42:28,763 --> 00:42:30,591
Wow.

1134
00:42:30,635 --> 00:42:32,245
A famous author
to add to your collection.

1135
00:42:32,288 --> 00:42:33,594
[chuckles ruefully]

1136
00:42:33,638 --> 00:42:36,379
Hey, you know
what I just told you

1137
00:42:36,423 --> 00:42:37,555
about my feelings for Robin

1138
00:42:37,598 --> 00:42:38,556
are private, right?

1139
00:42:40,122 --> 00:42:41,428
Roe, how could you
even say that?

1140
00:42:41,471 --> 00:42:44,997
Um, because of
your latest story?

1141
00:42:46,259 --> 00:42:47,869
Oh, that.

1142
00:42:47,913 --> 00:42:50,219
Yeah, that.

1143
00:42:50,263 --> 00:42:51,569
You quoted club members

1144
00:42:51,612 --> 00:42:53,788
even though we asked you
at the meeting

1145
00:42:53,832 --> 00:42:54,920
to keep it off the record.

1146
00:42:54,963 --> 00:42:56,965
Look, I know, and I'm sorry.

1147
00:42:57,009 --> 00:43:00,099
The Associated Press
is picking up my articles now.

1148
00:43:00,142 --> 00:43:01,753
So that means you have to
sensationalize the club?

1149
00:43:01,796 --> 00:43:03,058
And quote me, quote Gerald?

1150
00:43:03,102 --> 00:43:04,712
That's not what I was...

1151
00:43:04,756 --> 00:43:05,887
You always talk about respecting
the victims

1152
00:43:05,931 --> 00:43:07,106
and their families...

1153
00:43:07,149 --> 00:43:09,151
And you always
turn them into suspects.

1154
00:43:09,195 --> 00:43:10,979
I see Gerald's name
on your little list right there.

1155
00:43:11,023 --> 00:43:12,328
He's not even that high
on the list.

1156
00:43:12,372 --> 00:43:14,069
He's number five,
right after you.

1157
00:43:14,113 --> 00:43:16,289
What! I'm on your list?

1158
00:43:17,682 --> 00:43:19,248
Number four!

1159
00:43:19,292 --> 00:43:20,728
Roe, that's not funny!

1160
00:43:20,772 --> 00:43:22,077
I know,

1161
00:43:22,121 --> 00:43:24,253
but this isn't a suspect list.

1162
00:43:24,297 --> 00:43:25,820
This is a list
of who might be next.

1163
00:43:25,864 --> 00:43:27,126
Oh...

1164
00:43:27,169 --> 00:43:28,344
What?

1165
00:43:28,388 --> 00:43:30,259
I'm going through
all these old cases,

1166
00:43:30,303 --> 00:43:31,521
and I'm tracking
the similarities

1167
00:43:31,565 --> 00:43:33,915
between the victims
and the club members.

1168
00:43:33,959 --> 00:43:36,614
So, LeMaster is a businessman,

1169
00:43:36,657 --> 00:43:38,006
that bumps him up on the list.

1170
00:43:38,050 --> 00:43:41,270
John is a real estate investor,
that bumps him up.

1171
00:43:41,314 --> 00:43:42,968
And I'm number four because...

1172
00:43:44,317 --> 00:43:45,623
Reporters do things

1173
00:43:45,666 --> 00:43:47,407
that get people mad enough
to get rid of them.

1174
00:43:49,148 --> 00:43:50,889
[mutters] I wonder why.

1175
00:43:52,499 --> 00:43:54,327
I'd better go.

1176
00:43:54,370 --> 00:43:56,938
Hey, if it makes you
feel any better,

1177
00:43:56,982 --> 00:43:59,767
I'm on the list, too.

1178
00:43:59,811 --> 00:44:02,683
I've found at least one
librarian victim so far.

1179
00:44:02,727 --> 00:44:04,642
It doesn't make me
feel any better.

1180
00:44:04,685 --> 00:44:06,208
I couldn't bear it
if something happened to you.

1181
00:44:06,252 --> 00:44:08,471
You too.

1182
00:44:08,515 --> 00:44:11,039
Hey, maybe you should stay
with your mom and dad

1183
00:44:11,083 --> 00:44:12,998
until they catch the bad guy.

1184
00:44:13,041 --> 00:44:15,696
Yeah, I think I will.

1185
00:44:15,740 --> 00:44:18,264
Thanks for the tea.

1186
00:44:37,849 --> 00:44:38,850
[yawning]

1187
00:44:40,765 --> 00:44:43,245
[dog barking outside]

1188
00:45:05,964 --> 00:45:07,879
[dog barking]

1189
00:45:09,228 --> 00:45:10,229
[car door slams]

1190
00:45:11,447 --> 00:45:12,753
Hey.

1191
00:45:12,797 --> 00:45:13,972
Hi.

1192
00:45:14,015 --> 00:45:15,321
I'm supposed to start
teaching tomorrow.

1193
00:45:15,364 --> 00:45:17,715
I was looking for my bag,
but I can't find it.

1194
00:45:17,758 --> 00:45:19,238
I could have sworn
it was in the back seat.

1195
00:45:20,413 --> 00:45:22,110
You okay?

1196
00:45:22,154 --> 00:45:25,244
No, there was someone
in my backyard.

1197
00:45:25,287 --> 00:45:27,463
Did you see anyone
running around here?

1198
00:45:27,507 --> 00:45:30,466
No, I was looking in my car.

1199
00:45:30,510 --> 00:45:31,467
Hey, guys.

1200
00:45:31,511 --> 00:45:33,382
Hey, Bankston.

1201
00:45:33,426 --> 00:45:35,863
Hey, did you see anyone
suspicious looking

1202
00:45:35,907 --> 00:45:37,735
just hanging around here?

1203
00:45:37,778 --> 00:45:39,258
No.

1204
00:45:39,301 --> 00:45:40,215
You know what,
it wouldn't surprise me

1205
00:45:40,259 --> 00:45:41,782
if that creep Perry Dell was.

1206
00:45:41,826 --> 00:45:44,045
That guy's got a police record,
like, a mile long.

1207
00:45:44,089 --> 00:45:45,612
I bet you he's the one
doing all this stuff.

1208
00:45:46,918 --> 00:45:49,572
Well, it's never
the obvious suspect.

1209
00:45:49,616 --> 00:45:51,444
Yeah, well, maybe not
in your little novels,

1210
00:45:51,487 --> 00:45:53,489
but this is real life.

1211
00:45:55,100 --> 00:45:56,754
[scoffs] Wow.

1212
00:45:56,797 --> 00:45:58,320
What's his problem?

1213
00:45:58,364 --> 00:45:59,931
I think this situation

1214
00:45:59,974 --> 00:46:02,237
is making everybody
a little bit jumpy.

1215
00:46:02,281 --> 00:46:03,412
I don't even know
what I'm going to do

1216
00:46:03,456 --> 00:46:05,675
from one minute to the next.

1217
00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:08,591
Hey, listen, um,

1218
00:46:08,635 --> 00:46:11,464
now that my innocence has
been firmly established,

1219
00:46:11,507 --> 00:46:14,075
you want to go
to lunch tomorrow?

1220
00:46:14,119 --> 00:46:18,166
Yeah. Okay.

1221
00:46:18,210 --> 00:46:19,428
Great.

1222
00:46:19,472 --> 00:46:20,778
All right.

1223
00:46:20,821 --> 00:46:21,822
Good night.

1224
00:46:21,866 --> 00:46:22,954
Good night.

1225
00:46:29,743 --> 00:46:30,918
Ma, I can't eat all this food.

1226
00:46:30,962 --> 00:46:32,659
You're too thin, honey.

1227
00:46:32,702 --> 00:46:33,616
Mom's right, cupcake.

1228
00:46:33,660 --> 00:46:35,444
You're wasting away.

1229
00:46:35,488 --> 00:46:37,098
Daddy, I don't eat meat.

1230
00:46:37,142 --> 00:46:38,447
Who doesn't eat meat?

1231
00:46:38,491 --> 00:46:39,361
You always ate meat
when you lived at home.

1232
00:46:39,405 --> 00:46:41,320
That was 15 years ago,

1233
00:46:41,363 --> 00:46:42,800
and you guys both know
I'm a vegetarian.

1234
00:46:42,843 --> 00:46:45,193
I thought it was
one of your fads.

1235
00:46:45,237 --> 00:46:46,716
You always did change hobbies
at the drop of a hat, honey.

1236
00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:49,284
I have to go to work.

1237
00:46:49,328 --> 00:46:50,285
You have not been excused

1238
00:46:50,329 --> 00:46:51,852
from this table yet, young lady.

1239
00:46:51,896 --> 00:46:53,636
Sit down and eat your breakfast.

1240
00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:54,637
Come on, eat up.

1241
00:46:54,681 --> 00:46:55,987
We're looking forward

1242
00:46:56,030 --> 00:46:58,206
to meeting you for lunch today.

1243
00:47:02,036 --> 00:47:04,691
Lunch?

1244
00:47:04,734 --> 00:47:06,867
We planned it
last week, remember?

1245
00:47:06,911 --> 00:47:09,565
Are you always this forgetful?

1246
00:47:09,609 --> 00:47:11,872
I don't think
this vegetarian fad

1247
00:47:11,916 --> 00:47:13,395
is good for you at all.

1248
00:47:13,439 --> 00:47:15,658
It's not a fad, Mom.

1249
00:47:15,702 --> 00:47:16,964
Bud, help me fold
Sally's clothes,

1250
00:47:17,008 --> 00:47:18,009
will you?

1251
00:47:18,052 --> 00:47:19,140
You washed my clothes?

1252
00:47:19,184 --> 00:47:20,185
They weren't dirty.

1253
00:47:20,228 --> 00:47:22,535
They were looking
a little dingy.

1254
00:47:22,578 --> 00:47:24,102
They were dry clean only.

1255
00:47:25,364 --> 00:47:26,756
[scoffs]

1256
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,020
You don't want to be
wasting money dry cleaning.

1257
00:47:40,553 --> 00:47:42,685
I wanted to take home
some true crime books,

1258
00:47:42,729 --> 00:47:43,773
but most of them
are already checked out.

1259
00:47:43,817 --> 00:47:45,993
Well, don't complain.

1260
00:47:46,037 --> 00:47:48,343
It was yet another one of
your friends

1261
00:47:48,387 --> 00:47:50,563
who came and checked them out
in a batch a few weeks ago.

1262
00:47:50,606 --> 00:47:52,260
What friend?

1263
00:47:52,304 --> 00:47:53,914
You should know.

1264
00:47:53,958 --> 00:47:55,089
He told me you were the one

1265
00:47:55,133 --> 00:47:57,004
who got him
interested in the subject.

1266
00:47:57,048 --> 00:47:58,614
[sighs]

1267
00:47:58,658 --> 00:48:00,790
[muttering] Couldn't you just
answer my question?

1268
00:48:03,576 --> 00:48:05,012
Of course.

1269
00:48:05,056 --> 00:48:08,363
Perry Dell.

1270
00:48:08,407 --> 00:48:09,451
Perry Dell checked out all these

1271
00:48:09,495 --> 00:48:11,062
two weeks before
the first murder?

1272
00:48:11,105 --> 00:48:12,628
Yeah, he's been
in the club for a year,

1273
00:48:12,672 --> 00:48:15,022
and he just now starts
reading true crime?

1274
00:48:15,066 --> 00:48:16,371
See, if this were a novel,

1275
00:48:16,415 --> 00:48:18,547
this would be a big neon sign

1276
00:48:18,591 --> 00:48:20,114
pointing directly at him.

1277
00:48:20,158 --> 00:48:21,942
Well, the Marat
and Wallace stories

1278
00:48:21,986 --> 00:48:23,030
are in those books,

1279
00:48:23,074 --> 00:48:24,423
but not Botkin.

1280
00:48:24,466 --> 00:48:25,424
You really think all those cases

1281
00:48:25,467 --> 00:48:26,642
are going to show up
in one book?

1282
00:48:26,686 --> 00:48:28,644
Well, it's one
possibility of a pattern.

1283
00:48:28,688 --> 00:48:30,124
Another might be
a common type of attacker,

1284
00:48:30,168 --> 00:48:31,560
like a woman.

1285
00:48:31,604 --> 00:48:33,301
With both Marat and Botkin,

1286
00:48:33,345 --> 00:48:34,389
it was a woman.

1287
00:48:34,433 --> 00:48:35,434
But who knows about Wallace?

1288
00:48:35,477 --> 00:48:37,218
But wasn't the husband
convicted?

1289
00:48:37,262 --> 00:48:38,741
Yeah, but a lot of people
think he was innocent.

1290
00:48:38,785 --> 00:48:39,786
There are other theories
in the literature.

1291
00:48:39,829 --> 00:48:41,222
Oh.

1292
00:48:41,266 --> 00:48:43,442
So your area of expertise
is not just the crime,

1293
00:48:43,485 --> 00:48:45,574
but which sources
mention which cases?

1294
00:48:45,618 --> 00:48:48,577
I am a menace
on the message boards.

1295
00:48:48,621 --> 00:48:50,449
You're also amazing.

1296
00:48:52,103 --> 00:48:54,757
You talk just like you write.

1297
00:48:54,801 --> 00:48:56,629
It's always clear what
your characters want.

1298
00:48:56,672 --> 00:48:58,587
Well, that's my expertise.

1299
00:48:58,631 --> 00:49:01,068
Character, motivation, want.

1300
00:49:01,112 --> 00:49:04,767
Now, what do you suppose
a copycat killer wants?

1301
00:49:04,811 --> 00:49:06,595
Besides attention.

1302
00:49:06,639 --> 00:49:08,249
Oh, I have no idea.

1303
00:49:08,293 --> 00:49:09,685
A person
who takes someone's life

1304
00:49:09,729 --> 00:49:10,948
doesn't seem to want
normal things.

1305
00:49:10,991 --> 00:49:12,471
Well, sometimes, they do.

1306
00:49:12,514 --> 00:49:14,821
They just have abnormal ways
of getting them.

1307
00:49:14,864 --> 00:49:15,778
[door opens, entry bell jingles]

1308
00:49:15,822 --> 00:49:17,084
Heya, small world.

1309
00:49:17,128 --> 00:49:18,477
Hey, yourself.

1310
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:19,782
Mr. And Mrs. Allison,

1311
00:49:19,826 --> 00:49:20,870
this is Robin Daniels.

1312
00:49:20,914 --> 00:49:21,959
Hello.

1313
00:49:22,002 --> 00:49:23,177
It's so nice to meet you.

1314
00:49:23,221 --> 00:49:24,439
Hi. You look
familiar.

1315
00:49:24,483 --> 00:49:26,180
Probably from
his book jackets, Dad.

1316
00:49:26,224 --> 00:49:27,790
Ah...

1317
00:49:27,834 --> 00:49:29,096
I made a display
of your books last week.

1318
00:49:29,140 --> 00:49:30,271
Roe just loves you.

1319
00:49:30,315 --> 00:49:31,838
Does she now?

1320
00:49:31,881 --> 00:49:33,448
She didn't mention that.

1321
00:49:33,492 --> 00:49:35,798
Well, welcome
to Lawrenceton, Robin.

1322
00:49:35,842 --> 00:49:36,843
Thank you.

1323
00:49:36,886 --> 00:49:37,800
And how have you been, Roe?

1324
00:49:37,844 --> 00:49:39,454
How do you think, Ma?

1325
00:49:39,498 --> 00:49:40,847
She's terrible.

1326
00:49:40,890 --> 00:49:42,066
We're all terrible
with everything that's going on.

1327
00:49:42,109 --> 00:49:44,024
Well then, you should
fold up that club.

1328
00:49:44,068 --> 00:49:46,374
You sound just like my mother.

1329
00:49:46,418 --> 00:49:47,810
Aida is a very wise woman.

1330
00:49:47,854 --> 00:49:49,464
Why don't we grab a seat

1331
00:49:49,508 --> 00:49:51,292
and let them
get back to their lunch?

1332
00:49:51,336 --> 00:49:52,467
Nice to meet you both.

1333
00:49:52,511 --> 00:49:53,512
Yes.

1334
00:49:54,556 --> 00:49:55,818
One day.

1335
00:49:55,862 --> 00:49:57,342
I've been
staying with them one day,

1336
00:49:57,385 --> 00:49:58,778
and I'm already going crazy.

1337
00:50:02,564 --> 00:50:04,392
They seem nice enough to me.

1338
00:50:04,436 --> 00:50:07,700
Oh, Sally and her stepmother
are great friends, really,

1339
00:50:07,743 --> 00:50:10,311
it's been a long time
since she's lived at home.

1340
00:50:10,355 --> 00:50:11,747
Right, of course.

1341
00:50:11,791 --> 00:50:14,533
Okay, you were talking about
suspects' motivation.

1342
00:50:14,576 --> 00:50:17,405
Yes, so motivation
always starts with character.

1343
00:50:17,449 --> 00:50:21,583
Okay, so if Perry Dell
is my character,

1344
00:50:21,627 --> 00:50:24,195
then I need to figure out
what he wants,

1345
00:50:24,238 --> 00:50:26,066
and why he checked out
those books.

1346
00:50:26,110 --> 00:50:28,329
No, no, no, wait,
you can't do that.

1347
00:50:28,373 --> 00:50:30,418
You can't just go and question
a possible murder suspect.

1348
00:50:30,462 --> 00:50:32,029
That's crazy.

1349
00:50:32,072 --> 00:50:35,162
Oh, then you have no idea
what motivates my character.

1350
00:50:35,206 --> 00:50:36,424
Okay, fine,

1351
00:50:36,468 --> 00:50:37,904
but that means
I have to go with you,

1352
00:50:37,947 --> 00:50:39,949
which, in turn, means
you're endangering my life, too,

1353
00:50:39,993 --> 00:50:42,430
but sure, let's do it.

1354
00:50:43,823 --> 00:50:45,520
Okay.

1355
00:50:45,564 --> 00:50:47,870
I will take the list to Lynn,
and I'll have her talk to him.

1356
00:50:47,914 --> 00:50:50,264
There you go,
that's a wiser choice.

1357
00:50:50,308 --> 00:50:53,006
Thankfully, following reason
is part of your character.

1358
00:51:05,801 --> 00:51:07,194
I know what you're thinking.

1359
00:51:07,238 --> 00:51:08,978
That someone smart enough
to pull off what this guy has

1360
00:51:09,022 --> 00:51:11,198
isn't going to check out
books with his blueprints.

1361
00:51:11,242 --> 00:51:14,462
But most criminals make
at least one dumb mistake.

1362
00:51:14,506 --> 00:51:16,290
Did you check Perry's alibi
for both cases?

1363
00:51:20,120 --> 00:51:21,513
I'm not answering that.

1364
00:51:23,602 --> 00:51:25,473
He doesn't like me
very much, does he?

1365
00:51:25,517 --> 00:51:28,955
It's strange how he can be
so blind to your charm.

1366
00:51:30,043 --> 00:51:31,566
Well then,

1367
00:51:31,610 --> 00:51:32,393
I'm just going to just
have to answer my questions

1368
00:51:32,437 --> 00:51:33,481
in my own way.

1369
00:51:33,525 --> 00:51:34,482
Don't do that.

1370
00:51:34,526 --> 00:51:35,701
Roe, I'm serious.

1371
00:51:48,453 --> 00:51:51,238
I can't tell
who he's talking to.

1372
00:51:51,282 --> 00:51:53,501
I'm still trying to
get mine in proper focus.

1373
00:51:55,982 --> 00:51:57,592
Can't you two find another place

1374
00:51:57,636 --> 00:51:59,464
to play your little spy game?

1375
00:51:59,507 --> 00:52:00,813
Well, you have the best window

1376
00:52:00,856 --> 00:52:02,641
for where Perry works.

1377
00:52:02,684 --> 00:52:06,645
[quietly] We'll try
to use our spy voices.

1378
00:52:08,037 --> 00:52:09,648
Looks like they're fighting.

1379
00:52:09,691 --> 00:52:11,650
I don't know who
the man is, do you?

1380
00:52:11,693 --> 00:52:13,347
I've seen him
on the golf course.

1381
00:52:13,391 --> 00:52:14,348
[gasps]

1382
00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:17,308
Oh, he pushed him.

1383
00:52:17,351 --> 00:52:19,005
There you go, violent, angry.

1384
00:52:19,048 --> 00:52:20,441
Hotheaded.

1385
00:52:20,485 --> 00:52:23,052
Too hotheaded.

1386
00:52:23,096 --> 00:52:24,793
I don't think Mamie Wright
and Morrison Pettigrue

1387
00:52:24,837 --> 00:52:27,666
were attacked by someone
hotheaded or impulsive.

1388
00:52:27,709 --> 00:52:28,841
The crimes do seem
to be the work

1389
00:52:28,884 --> 00:52:30,277
of a cool and calculating head.

1390
00:52:30,321 --> 00:52:32,192
It just doesn't feel like Perry.

1391
00:52:32,236 --> 00:52:33,280
Excuse me,

1392
00:52:33,324 --> 00:52:35,195
I'd like to get to my files.

1393
00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:36,892
Sorry, we know
you hate this muck.

1394
00:52:36,936 --> 00:52:38,285
I had to promise her

1395
00:52:38,329 --> 00:52:39,982
I'd never bring up
the Lizzie Borden case again.

1396
00:52:40,026 --> 00:52:41,506
Oh, I looked at the Borden case

1397
00:52:41,549 --> 00:52:43,334
as a possible model
for a copycat.

1398
00:52:43,377 --> 00:52:44,552
It's a good thing
that we don't have

1399
00:52:44,596 --> 00:52:46,815
any Sunday school teachers
in the club.

1400
00:52:46,859 --> 00:52:49,557
Or female members who still
live with her parents.

1401
00:52:49,601 --> 00:52:51,385
Well, just Sally,

1402
00:52:51,429 --> 00:52:52,821
she's staying with
her dad and...

1403
00:52:52,865 --> 00:52:54,997
her stepmother.

1404
00:52:55,041 --> 00:52:56,085
Wasn't Lizzie Borden's
stepmother

1405
00:52:56,129 --> 00:52:57,739
the one who got the 40 whacks?

1406
00:53:01,352 --> 00:53:03,180
With a hatchet.

1407
00:53:03,223 --> 00:53:04,920
Wait, but there are no
other similarities there,

1408
00:53:04,964 --> 00:53:06,052
right?

1409
00:53:06,095 --> 00:53:08,010
Sally doesn't have a sister,

1410
00:53:08,054 --> 00:53:10,187
her father's not a banker,

1411
00:53:10,230 --> 00:53:11,579
and her name
is nowhere near Elizabeth.

1412
00:53:11,623 --> 00:53:13,320
Well, her middle name
is Elizabeth.

1413
00:53:13,364 --> 00:53:14,495
What?

1414
00:53:14,539 --> 00:53:16,018
How do you know that?

1415
00:53:16,062 --> 00:53:17,672
I got her that monogrammed
purse for her birthday,

1416
00:53:17,716 --> 00:53:18,630
remember?

1417
00:53:20,240 --> 00:53:21,241
I gotta call Sally.

1418
00:53:24,375 --> 00:53:26,290
[cell phone rings]

1419
00:53:29,162 --> 00:53:31,599
Sally, why aren't you
picking up?

1420
00:53:31,643 --> 00:53:33,601
And why didn't you tell me
your middle name was Elizabeth?

1421
00:53:33,645 --> 00:53:34,689
Hi, it's Sally.
Leave a message.

1422
00:53:34,733 --> 00:53:36,213
Hey, do you remember my list?

1423
00:53:36,256 --> 00:53:37,518
You are number one now.

1424
00:53:37,562 --> 00:53:39,390
I mean, your parents are.

1425
00:53:39,433 --> 00:53:40,347
But we have to get them
to safety.

1426
00:53:40,391 --> 00:53:41,348
You've gotta call me.

1427
00:53:41,392 --> 00:53:42,436
We have to warn the Allisons.

1428
00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:43,698
Mother, do you have
a phone book?

1429
00:53:43,742 --> 00:53:45,222
Yeah, I believe so.

1430
00:53:45,265 --> 00:53:46,440
I'll look online.

1431
00:53:46,484 --> 00:53:48,529
I know where their house is.
I'm going to go.

1432
00:53:48,573 --> 00:53:49,356
Call me when you find
the number.

1433
00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:50,531
Oh.

1434
00:53:50,575 --> 00:53:52,968
Don't let her go alone.

1435
00:53:58,278 --> 00:54:00,149
[TV playing loudly]

1436
00:54:12,597 --> 00:54:13,598
[snoring]

1437
00:54:17,515 --> 00:54:18,864
[turns off TV]

1438
00:54:22,781 --> 00:54:24,478

1439
00:54:34,053 --> 00:54:35,315
Yes, I know
what "unlisted" means,

1440
00:54:35,359 --> 00:54:36,621
but this is an emergency.

1441
00:54:37,970 --> 00:54:39,972

Lillian, please.

1447
00:55:11,177 --> 00:55:13,222
Just walk to the bulletin board
in the break room,

1448
00:55:13,266 --> 00:55:14,789
and get me Bud Allison's number.

1449
00:55:14,833 --> 00:55:16,008
You know it's against the rules

1450
00:55:16,051 --> 00:55:17,009
to leave the front desk
unmanned.

1451
00:55:17,052 --> 00:55:19,316
Just do it!

1452
00:55:19,359 --> 00:55:21,666
Why would I break the rules

1453
00:55:21,709 --> 00:55:25,409

who's screeching at me?

00:55:46,604 --> 00:55:48,170
Mother, did you find it?

1459
00:55:48,214 --> 00:55:49,824
Yeah, I just did,

1460
00:55:49,868 --> 00:55:52,000
but what do I say to them
that doesn't sound insane?

1461
00:55:52,044 --> 00:55:53,219
Just give me the number,

1462
00:55:53,262 --> 00:55:54,960
I'll call.
They're used to my insanity.

Hello?

1468
00:56:07,233 --> 00:56:08,365
Mrs. Allison, it's Aurora!

1469
00:56:08,408 --> 00:56:10,410
I'm worried that
you're in great danger.

1470
00:56:10,454 --> 00:56:12,673
Carol, call the police!

1471
00:56:12,717 --> 00:56:15,763
Aurora, I've got to go.
I'm calling 9-1-1.

1472
00:56:25,643 --> 00:56:26,687
Oh, my gosh.

1473
00:56:26,731 --> 00:56:27,775
Are you okay?

1474
00:56:27,819 --> 00:56:29,603
The police are on their way.

1475
00:56:29,647 --> 00:56:31,692
What happened?

1476
00:56:31,736 --> 00:56:32,954
You saved Bud's life by calling,

1477
00:56:32,998 --> 00:56:33,955
that's what happened.

1478
00:56:33,999 --> 00:56:34,913
And mine, too.

1479
00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:37,742
I just got your message
and rushed over.

1480
00:56:37,785 --> 00:56:38,873
Did something happen?

1481
00:56:38,917 --> 00:56:39,918
There's been an incident.

1482
00:56:39,961 --> 00:56:41,049
But we're okay, honey.

1483
00:56:41,093 --> 00:56:42,137
[gasping in relief]

1484
00:56:43,269 --> 00:56:44,401
Here they come.

1485
00:56:52,278 --> 00:56:53,932
Look, guys, look.

1486
00:56:56,500 --> 00:56:57,979
Bud Allison says

1487
00:56:58,023 --> 00:56:59,720
the hatchet was coming
straight down for his head

1488
00:56:59,764 --> 00:57:00,765
when the phone woke him up.

1489
00:57:00,808 --> 00:57:01,809
Who was holding it?

1490
00:57:01,853 --> 00:57:03,420
He didn't see.

1491
00:57:03,463 --> 00:57:04,725
I sent an officer out
to find out

1492
00:57:04,769 --> 00:57:06,423
if Perry Dell was working
an hour ago.

1493
00:57:06,466 --> 00:57:07,902
Oh, yeah, he was.
We, uh...

1494
00:57:07,946 --> 00:57:09,121
We saw him working

1495
00:57:09,164 --> 00:57:10,470
from Aida's office,
across the street.

1496
00:57:11,689 --> 00:57:12,907
[sighs]

1497
00:57:12,951 --> 00:57:14,431
Every member of your club
has an alibi

1498
00:57:14,474 --> 00:57:15,562
for at least one of the murders,

1499
00:57:15,606 --> 00:57:16,737
except for Perry,

1500
00:57:16,781 --> 00:57:18,260
and you just ruled him out.

1501
00:57:18,304 --> 00:57:20,437
So it isn't
someone from the club?

1502
00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:21,438
That's a relief.

1503
00:57:21,481 --> 00:57:22,743
Yeah, for you.

1504
00:57:22,787 --> 00:57:23,788
Now I have to widen
my pool of suspects.

1505
00:57:23,831 --> 00:57:25,572
Smith!

1506
00:57:25,616 --> 00:57:27,487
I am so sick and tired
of this garbage...

1507
00:57:27,531 --> 00:57:28,575
Hey, hey, hey!

1508
00:57:28,619 --> 00:57:29,620
Before you start to yell at me

1509
00:57:29,663 --> 00:57:30,838
for talking with civilians,

1510
00:57:30,882 --> 00:57:32,449
you should know
that this civilian

1511
00:57:32,492 --> 00:57:34,146
just prevented a tragedy.

1512
00:57:34,189 --> 00:57:36,496
So we definitely need
to talk with her,

1513
00:57:36,540 --> 00:57:37,802
at least this time.

1514
00:57:39,151 --> 00:57:40,457
Where's forensics?

1515
00:57:40,500 --> 00:57:41,980
They should be here,
looking for footprints.

1516
00:57:42,023 --> 00:57:43,198
Get this rabble out of here,

1517
00:57:43,242 --> 00:57:45,636
they're trampling
all over everything!

1518
00:57:45,679 --> 00:57:46,854
Don't look at me like that.

1519
00:57:46,898 --> 00:57:48,290
This doesn't mean we're buddies.

1520
00:57:48,334 --> 00:57:49,640
Right, 'cause that
would be so silly.

1521
00:57:50,728 --> 00:57:52,033
Is it true

1522
00:57:52,077 --> 00:57:53,165
you were almost
hacked with an axe?

1523
00:57:53,208 --> 00:57:54,601
Did you get a look
at your attacker?

1524
00:57:54,645 --> 00:57:55,776
Do you have any kind of
description at all?

1525
00:57:55,820 --> 00:57:57,038
Give them room!

1526
00:57:57,082 --> 00:57:58,779
After they give
their statements,

1527
00:57:58,823 --> 00:57:59,606
they'll be able to
speak with you if they want.

1528
00:57:59,650 --> 00:58:01,695
For now, back up!

1529
00:58:01,739 --> 00:58:02,696
She's the one
you should talk to,

1530
00:58:02,740 --> 00:58:03,784
Aurora Teagarden.

1531
00:58:03,828 --> 00:58:05,003
She saved us.

1532
00:58:05,046 --> 00:58:06,657
Go, go.
Take my truck.

1533
00:58:06,700 --> 00:58:08,659
Miss Teagarden!
Miss Teagarden!

1534
00:58:08,702 --> 00:58:09,834
I'll keep
the marauding horde at bay.

Ladies and gentlemen
of the press,

1536
00:58:11,357 --> 00:58:14,360

[Aurora]:
Mother, I'm fine, really.

1538

I'm home,

1539
00:58:33,553 --> 00:58:36,643
and I'll lock the doors.

1540
00:58:36,687 --> 00:58:39,559
Besides, Robin's here.

1541
00:58:39,603 --> 00:58:40,517
Yeah, I'll talk to you later.

1542
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:42,083
I love you.

1543
00:58:45,217 --> 00:58:47,088

You all right?

1546
00:58:51,266 --> 00:58:52,790
Yeah.

1547
00:58:56,315 --> 00:58:58,186
Oh, I missed it!

1548
00:58:58,230 --> 00:59:00,232
I... I missed the similarities,

1549
00:59:00,275 --> 00:59:01,363
and I was almost too late.

1550
00:59:01,407 --> 00:59:02,843
But you weren't.

1551
00:59:02,887 --> 00:59:05,716
Now the police, they've
ruled out the club members,

1552
00:59:05,759 --> 00:59:08,675
and now the list
of suspects is so wide now,

1553
00:59:08,719 --> 00:59:10,242
it's impossible.

1554
00:59:12,636 --> 00:59:15,290
No, it's not impossible.

1555
00:59:15,334 --> 00:59:16,944
I did figure out

1556
00:59:16,988 --> 00:59:19,686
that Sally's parents
were likely to be next.

1557
00:59:19,730 --> 00:59:21,862
If I can just figure out
who's next sooner

1558
00:59:21,906 --> 00:59:23,211
so the police are waiting

1559
00:59:23,255 --> 00:59:24,561
when he tries it again.

1560
00:59:24,604 --> 00:59:25,953
Okay, well, I'm here to help.

we'll put

at the top...

1564
00:59:34,179 --> 00:59:36,311
and then we'll put
the elements of all the cases

1565
00:59:36,355 --> 00:59:37,965
below it,

1566
00:59:38,009 --> 00:59:39,140
and then we'll see how many
connections we can make.

1567
00:59:39,184 --> 00:59:41,055
Right.

1568
00:59:41,099 --> 00:59:44,406
Okay, yeah,
so, for example, uh...

1569
00:59:44,450 --> 00:59:46,408
the Laura Landry case.

1570
00:59:46,452 --> 00:59:47,758
We'll put it here.
Tape?

1571
00:59:47,801 --> 00:59:49,716
Yeah, we'll just... do this.

1572
00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:51,588
See, she was a librarian,

1573
00:59:51,631 --> 00:59:54,721
so, that's the connection.

1574
00:59:54,765 --> 00:59:56,114
It's interesting.

1575
00:59:57,202 --> 00:59:58,812
What?

Oh, I just, I do all of this
because it helps me visualize.

No, no, it's funny,

wants the weapons to be found.

So then why haven't they found
the weapon in Mamie's case?

01:12:00,838 --> 01:12:02,230
We're thinking she
might be next door,

1796
01:12:02,274 --> 01:12:04,668
with Robin Daniels.

1797
01:12:04,711 --> 01:12:05,625
Daniels didn't answer.

1798
01:12:05,669 --> 01:12:06,974
She's not there?

1799
01:12:07,018 --> 01:12:08,236
You have any idea where she is?

1800
01:12:08,280 --> 01:12:09,890
It's urgent we speak with her.

1801
01:12:09,934 --> 01:12:11,979
She left her computer
open on the table.

1802
01:12:12,023 --> 01:12:13,677
Maybe that'll tell us something.

1803
01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:14,678
Come on.

1804
01:12:16,506 --> 01:12:18,986
She was reading about
the Wallace case.

1805
01:12:19,030 --> 01:12:20,336
I wonder why.

1806
01:12:20,379 --> 01:12:21,728
You've already got the man
who killed Mamie.

1807
01:12:21,772 --> 01:12:22,729
That's the problem.

1808
01:12:22,773 --> 01:12:23,861
We don't.

1809
01:12:23,904 --> 01:12:25,993
Benjamin Greer confessed, but...

1810
01:12:26,037 --> 01:12:27,821
But he didn't know
details he should have,

1811
01:12:27,865 --> 01:12:29,997
which Roe predicted.

1812
01:12:30,041 --> 01:12:31,172
You don't have
the right person in jail?

1813
01:12:31,216 --> 01:12:32,478
No.

1814
01:12:32,522 --> 01:12:33,653
Greer confessed that he lied

1815
01:12:33,697 --> 01:12:35,525
because he liked
being on television.

1816
01:12:35,568 --> 01:12:36,526
The idiot wasted our time.

1817
01:12:36,569 --> 01:12:38,223
Now, Roe said she knew

1818
01:12:38,266 --> 01:12:39,920
who the next victims
were likely to be,

1819
01:12:39,964 --> 01:12:41,400
said she made
some sort of diagram?

1820
01:12:41,444 --> 01:12:42,575
This is just
what I was afraid of!

1821
01:12:42,619 --> 01:12:45,404
She's at it again!

1822
01:12:45,448 --> 01:12:46,753
No, I'm not going to panic.

1823
01:12:46,797 --> 01:12:48,842
She might be
with Robin after all.

1824
01:12:48,886 --> 01:12:50,844
I mean, maybe they just
didn't hear your knock.

1825
01:12:50,888 --> 01:12:53,499
Well, I can go
bang on the door again.

1826
01:12:53,543 --> 01:12:54,413
Or I could give you the key.

1827
01:12:54,457 --> 01:12:55,849
I wonder why it says

1828
01:12:55,893 --> 01:12:56,850
the weapon in the Wallace
case was a hammer?

1829
01:12:56,894 --> 01:12:59,418
Everyone knows
it was a fire poker.

1830
01:12:59,462 --> 01:13:02,682
Though didn't someone
at our last meeting

1831
01:13:02,726 --> 01:13:03,770
argue against the poker?

1832
01:13:03,814 --> 01:13:04,771
Yeah, that's right.

1833
01:13:04,815 --> 01:13:05,859
Wait, was it LeMaster?

1834
01:13:05,903 --> 01:13:06,904
No, it was...

1835
01:13:06,947 --> 01:13:08,384
Bankston!

1836
01:13:08,427 --> 01:13:10,037
That's it.

1837
01:13:10,081 --> 01:13:12,213
Roe's led us to him.

1838
01:13:12,257 --> 01:13:14,433
But how did you know that?

1839
01:13:14,477 --> 01:13:16,261
Bankston's key is missing.
Roe probably has it.

1840
01:13:16,304 --> 01:13:18,002
She's over
in Bankston's townhouse.

1841
01:13:22,746 --> 01:13:23,964
[banging]

1842
01:13:24,008 --> 01:13:25,096
Police!

1843
01:13:25,139 --> 01:13:26,663
Open the door, Bankston!

1844
01:13:28,186 --> 01:13:29,100
Knock it down.

1845
01:13:30,362 --> 01:13:31,624
Ow.

1846
01:13:31,668 --> 01:13:32,582
Nope.

1847
01:13:32,625 --> 01:13:33,626
No.

1848
01:13:33,670 --> 01:13:34,932
Let him do it.

1849
01:13:47,945 --> 01:13:48,989
Anything?

1850
01:13:49,033 --> 01:13:49,990
I'm afraid not, Detective.

1851
01:13:50,034 --> 01:13:51,252
She's not here?

1852
01:13:51,296 --> 01:13:52,776
I got something.

1853
01:13:53,864 --> 01:13:54,821
[sniffs]

1854
01:13:54,865 --> 01:13:55,953
It's chloroform.

1855
01:13:59,478 --> 01:14:02,916
[sighing groggily]

1856
01:14:02,960 --> 01:14:05,353
[Robin]: Roe...

1857
01:14:05,397 --> 01:14:06,746
[Aurora]: Robin...

1858
01:14:06,790 --> 01:14:08,139
Bankston...

1859
01:14:08,182 --> 01:14:09,967
He knocked us out
with something.

1860
01:14:11,011 --> 01:14:11,969
[groaning]

1861
01:14:13,318 --> 01:14:15,451
Oh, chloroform.

1862
01:14:15,494 --> 01:14:17,148
The Hunt case.

1863
01:14:18,802 --> 01:14:23,328
You were getting ready
to copy the Hunt case.

1864
01:14:28,246 --> 01:14:30,466
We were right.

1865
01:14:30,509 --> 01:14:31,858
Dory's husband was next.

1866
01:14:34,034 --> 01:14:36,167
You think you're
so smart, don't you?

1867
01:14:36,210 --> 01:14:38,343
All of you in the club,

1868
01:14:38,386 --> 01:14:40,954
you think you know
the answer to everything.

1869
01:14:40,998 --> 01:14:42,347
Especially her.

1870
01:14:43,827 --> 01:14:45,481
Ah, she's not as bad as John.

1871
01:14:45,524 --> 01:14:47,047
After my last talk

1872
01:14:47,091 --> 01:14:48,353
about the Deaton case
in Georgia,

1873
01:14:48,396 --> 01:14:53,793
John sent me a three-page
letter of errors.

1874
01:14:53,837 --> 01:14:56,143
Three pages.

1875
01:14:56,187 --> 01:14:57,144
[chuckles]

1876
01:14:57,188 --> 01:14:58,058
Pompous idiot.

1877
01:14:59,582 --> 01:15:01,627
That's why you killed Mamie?

1878
01:15:01,671 --> 01:15:03,324
And Morrison Pettigrue?

1879
01:15:03,368 --> 01:15:05,370
Wounded pride?

1880
01:15:05,413 --> 01:15:07,981
No.

1881
01:15:08,025 --> 01:15:09,200
It was to prove

1882
01:15:09,243 --> 01:15:11,550
that Bankston has
the real mind for murder.

1883
01:15:11,594 --> 01:15:12,986
Melanie.

1884
01:15:13,030 --> 01:15:15,685
Remember what we agreed?

1885
01:15:15,728 --> 01:15:17,208
No explanations,
no justifications.

1886
01:15:18,557 --> 01:15:19,515
Right.

1887
01:15:19,558 --> 01:15:21,125
We did.

1888
01:15:23,431 --> 01:15:25,085
I'll go get more books.

1889
01:15:26,260 --> 01:15:27,740
Well, can you at least tell us

1890
01:15:27,784 --> 01:15:30,743
why your minion is off
on a reading fest right now?

1891
01:15:31,962 --> 01:15:33,529
Aurora knows.

1892
01:15:33,572 --> 01:15:34,486
Don't you, Roe?

1893
01:15:36,923 --> 01:15:39,665
Remember Laura Landry,

1894
01:15:39,709 --> 01:15:40,710
from our diagram?

1895
01:15:42,320 --> 01:15:43,713
Yeah, the librarian.

1896
01:15:43,756 --> 01:15:46,846
She was killed
by a spurned suitor.

1897
01:15:46,890 --> 01:15:48,195
How'd he do it again?

1898
01:15:48,239 --> 01:15:49,370
Beat her to death

1899
01:15:49,414 --> 01:15:50,937
with the Campion
English Dictionary,

1900
01:15:50,981 --> 01:15:54,375
and then staged her body
under a pile of books.

1901
01:15:54,419 --> 01:15:56,856
But wasn't it a murder-suicide?

1902
01:15:56,900 --> 01:15:58,902
Didn't he
hang himself afterwards?

1903
01:16:00,120 --> 01:16:01,426
Exactly.

1904
01:16:06,257 --> 01:16:08,955
Aurora Teagarden, female, 30s,

1905
01:16:08,999 --> 01:16:12,132
and Robin Daniels, male, 30s...

1906
01:16:12,176 --> 01:16:14,439
Wha... What is going on?

1907
01:16:14,482 --> 01:16:15,875
Can you go have a look?

1908
01:16:15,919 --> 01:16:17,311
Where's Roe?
Is she okay?

1909
01:16:17,355 --> 01:16:19,487
No. I don't know.

1910
01:16:19,531 --> 01:16:21,054
She's missing.

1911
01:16:21,098 --> 01:16:22,142
It seems she's figured out
that Bankston is the copycat.

1912
01:16:22,186 --> 01:16:23,970
And he took her,

1913
01:16:24,014 --> 01:16:25,406
and maybe Robin, too,

1914
01:16:25,450 --> 01:16:26,407
and we have no idea where.

1915
01:16:26,451 --> 01:16:27,452
John's going inside,

1916
01:16:27,495 --> 01:16:28,758
to try and look up cases

1917
01:16:28,801 --> 01:16:30,586
with either a writer
or librarian as a victim.

1918
01:16:30,629 --> 01:16:32,283
But Roe already did that.

1919
01:16:32,326 --> 01:16:33,806
She made a diagram.

1920
01:16:33,850 --> 01:16:35,242
Yeah, we know, but it's not
in her house, not in her car.

1921
01:16:35,286 --> 01:16:37,157
Well, that's because
it's in Robin's car.

1922
01:16:37,201 --> 01:16:38,637
What?

1923
01:16:38,681 --> 01:16:39,769
You know, just in case

1924
01:16:39,812 --> 01:16:41,118
it wasn't clear enough before,

1925
01:16:41,161 --> 01:16:42,902
you people are sick in the head.

1926
01:16:42,946 --> 01:16:45,644
[Melanie]: Right.

1927
01:16:45,688 --> 01:16:47,080
You plot murders every day
and get paid for it.

1928
01:16:47,124 --> 01:16:48,995
You're a terrible copycat.

1929
01:16:49,039 --> 01:16:51,519
Your first mistake
was the hammer.

1930
01:16:51,563 --> 01:16:52,651
Not a mistake.

1931
01:16:52,695 --> 01:16:54,914
Scotland Yard said
it was a hammer.

1932
01:16:54,958 --> 01:16:56,612
And Laura Landry was hit
in the back of the head,

1933
01:16:56,655 --> 01:16:57,787
not the side.

1934
01:16:57,830 --> 01:16:58,788
And not to mention,

1935
01:16:58,831 --> 01:17:01,094
you're using the 2010 version

1936
01:17:01,138 --> 01:17:03,836
of the dictionary,

1937
01:17:03,880 --> 01:17:05,011
when we have the version
that was used on Laura

1938
01:17:05,055 --> 01:17:06,752
right there,
in the rare book room.

1939
01:17:06,796 --> 01:17:08,232
What are you doing?

1940
01:17:09,668 --> 01:17:11,104
You're helping them
kill you more accurately?

1941
01:17:11,148 --> 01:17:12,932
'Cause she has to be
a Know-It-All,

1942
01:17:12,976 --> 01:17:14,630
right until the very end.

1943
01:17:14,673 --> 01:17:15,674
Go ahead,

1944
01:17:15,718 --> 01:17:17,807
be sloppy.

1945
01:17:17,850 --> 01:17:21,549
The hammer was how
I figured out it was you,

1946
01:17:21,593 --> 01:17:22,986
and all the mistakes
you're about to make

1947
01:17:23,029 --> 01:17:24,770
is going to help
someone else figure it out.

1948
01:17:24,814 --> 01:17:26,163
Probably John.

1949
01:17:26,206 --> 01:17:28,078
He can spot your errors.

1950
01:17:31,255 --> 01:17:33,126
Fine.

1951
01:17:33,170 --> 01:17:36,695
It'll be... poetic justice

1952
01:17:36,739 --> 01:17:38,436
to kill you
with the right dictionary.

1953
01:17:40,177 --> 01:17:41,482
Melanie, can you go
to the rare book room

1954
01:17:41,526 --> 01:17:42,483
and get the, uh...

1955
01:17:42,527 --> 01:17:44,747
1923 edition.

1956
01:17:52,406 --> 01:17:54,713
Okay, just go
straight down with it,

1957
01:17:54,757 --> 01:17:56,193
you're angling it.

1958
01:17:57,411 --> 01:17:59,675
[smashing]

1959
01:17:59,718 --> 01:18:01,851
You were taking too long.

1960
01:18:08,727 --> 01:18:10,424
Here it is, Laura Landry.

1961
01:18:10,468 --> 01:18:12,035
She was a librarian,
she was killed in the library.

1962
01:18:12,078 --> 01:18:13,558
The library!
Let's go, let's go, let's go!

1963
01:18:18,868 --> 01:18:22,610
[rattling doorknob]

1964
01:18:23,873 --> 01:18:25,265
[quietly] Why are you
taunting them?

1965
01:18:25,309 --> 01:18:26,353
I don't think you should
be taunting them right now.

1966
01:18:26,397 --> 01:18:27,354
Shh, shh...

1967
01:18:27,398 --> 01:18:28,355
[mouthing silently]

1968
01:18:28,399 --> 01:18:29,356
Bankston!

1969
01:18:29,400 --> 01:18:31,010
The door's stuck!

1970
01:18:31,054 --> 01:18:32,185
I can't get it.

1971
01:18:32,229 --> 01:18:33,404
Just forget it!

1972
01:18:36,233 --> 01:18:37,756
Sloppy...

1973
01:18:41,978 --> 01:18:42,935
All right, wait.

All right, hurry up and get it.

1992
01:19:30,156 --> 01:19:30,940
There's, like,
a thousand books in there.

1993
01:19:32,289 --> 01:19:33,594
I can't get it.

1994

01:19:34,813 --> 01:19:35,945
Ouch.

get out of here right now.

No. The door's locked.

Oh, I don't need to.

John told me that Robin here

is going to be making
some remarks tonight,

2051

to hear them.

2052
01:22:09,272 --> 01:22:10,273
Well, thank you.

2053
01:22:10,316 --> 01:22:11,230
I hope I don't disappoint you

In fact, you might be able
to convince my daughter

that fiction is more
interesting than fact.

2058

Oh, that's impossible.
