So, with the recent rash

And that is news we can use.

Linda and Nick?

Great information, Ruby,

and you have one more trick
up your sleeve,

in case you ever find yourself
a victim of a home invasion?

Yes. Criminals often tie up
their victims with duct tape,

a little secret

on how to escape.

Linda, could you give me a hand?

Of course.

Wrap that around my wrists

Anyone can do this.
It's simple physics.

The tape is super-tight.

- Ready!

[ripping]

[Linda] Oh, wow!

And I call that...

"news we hope
you never have to use."

So true.
And before you go,

we have an important
announcement here on 57 News.

Ruby, who has brought you

hundreds of eye-opening
consumer investigations,

is officially joining
our crime beat team.

Congratulations, Ruby.

Thank you, both.

I'm looking forward
to this next chapter.

And we might just have
your first crime-beat story.

The Seattle Police Department
has announced

it's reopening
a number of cold cases.

Beginning with the unsolved
murder of psychic Rose Vitello.

Known as "The Pawn Reader,"

she was shot
in her North Seattle shop

five years ago

by an unknown assailant.

Detectives say they're
re-examining all the evidence,

re-interviewing
all the witnesses,

and say they will leave
no stone unturned

until her killer is caught.

[Frank] Ruby's relentless
pursuit of justice

has already solved
two Seattle Murders,

and my crystal ball tells me

that our very own
Sherlock Holmes

is just getting started.

[Todd, derisively]
"Sherlock"?

More like "Sheer-luck."

I suspect

she gets that "Herring Hunch"
from her dad, John,

one of the finest
criminal investigators

Seattle has.

So, let's all
raise a glass to Ruby,

and a warning
to the bad guys out there...

you better watch out.

[chuckles]

Thank you, all.

To the best news team
in the business.

[Frank] Cheers!
Enjoy yourselves, guys.

[laughing]

May the best man or woman win.

How about you cover
your crime-beat stories

and I'll cover mine,

and we will see who
the best journalist is, Todd?

That's an easy one.

Excuse me,
I've got some awards to shine.

Ooh. He's kind of like a snail.

Tough on the outside
and slimy underneath.

Mm. Accurate.

Hey, are you still able
to help with the reunion?

Yeah, I'll be
at the high school tomorrow.

I heard a rumor
that Luke's coming.

since, uh...

Oh.

No.

But, you know,
we're both adults.

There's no reason

Awkward?

thank you, both, for coming,

I appreciate it.

Oh, we're both proud of you.

Well, I'll see you tomorrow.

See you.

How's my favorite godson?

Really good.

Any new interesting cases
down at the morgue?

Actually,
it's been kind of slow lately.

What are you hiding?

Nothing.

Did you get that raise
you were asking for?

Not yet.

The new hybrid?

Mm-mm.

It's a girl, isn't it?

Maybe.

Want to get a refill?

Sure.

I saw they reopened
the psychic murder.

I'm not surprised.

That case haunted
the department for years,

especially my buddy,
Detective Quinn,

who was the lead on the case.

You covered that story, right?

Mm. Last one
before I retired.

Why couldn't
they crack the case?

Well, there were
a lot of suspects,

but the murder weapon
was never found.

A bunch of items were stolen
from the pawn shop,

including a gun.

Burglary gone bad?

Possibly.

Whoever did it
wiped the surveillance video.

You know, it always bothered me

that the victim
was shot at close range

during a reading.

It felt...

personal to me.

So who did you think did it?

There was one suspect
that stuck out.

Travis Tru, a rival psychic.

Oh, yes.
He had threatened Rose,

but he was never arrested.

Rose was scamming Sloan.

"The Truth Teller."

Yeah.

He threatened to kill her

Exactly.

From there, I was able

to compare my test bullet

to the bullet
found at the crime scene.

And?

Perfect match.

We officially have
our murder weapon.

Nice work.

Time to put some pressure
on our killer.

Ruby?

Go ahead and report this.

Refreshing!

And exciting.

Good scoop!

Thanks to you.

Be sure to mention that
to Tommy.

I think you two
could make a good match.

[chuckles]

Are you and Jake...?

Oh. No.

You will be.

I've got a weird sixth sense
about these things.

I've been hearing that
a lot lately.

[laughs] See you on TV.

Our top story today...

breaking news

in the murder
of psychic Rose Vitello.

An anonymous tip
has cracked the case wide open,

and crime-beat reporter
Ruby Herring

has the exclusive details.

Ruby?

This cold case
is heating up fast.

A revolver was discovered
on the outskirts of Seattle,

and I can confirm

it was the weapon
used in the murder.

Again?

"You're on the right track,
but pick up the pace.

The killer's still out there,
and the tape's not erased.

Press 'play'
and follow the way."

♪ ♪

That's Rose's shop.

The day of the murder.

Caucasian male.

[Ruby] And that's Rose.

[Angela] He looks angry.

[Ruby] Mm.

♪ ♪

Someone came in after him.

[Angela]
This is where it cuts out.

Can you go back?

Mm-hmm.

Yeah. There.

I can't make out his face.

Can you zoom in?

Mm-hmm.

[Angela]
That's as far as I can go.

[Ruby] Are those golf clubs
on his hat?

I think so.

[together]
Henry Bards!

Makes sense, right?

Jake needs to see this.

Mm-hmm.

After all, who would know
more about the case than Jake?

That's right, Todd.

Detective Killian
is one of my sources.

Cops just love
a damsel in distress.

Don't you have
some missing garden gnomes

to track down?

Once again, they're sculptures,

and they're worth millions.

I heard on the scanner
that there's been another theft.

You'd better get going.

Garden gnomes...

now, those are his people.

[chuckling]

So why did you go see Rose
that day?

My fiancée left me
because of her.

I couldn't just let it go.

That's something you may have
wanted to mention

the first time we talked.

Well...

you made me very nervous.

You know,

it's quite the coincidence
that the revolver you owned

was a positive match
to the murder weapon.

Why would I sell Rose the gun
just to steal it back from her?

Maybe to cover your tracks?

Anyone could've stolen that gun.

Yeah, but not everyone
had motive like you did.

Sloan hadn't been happy
for a long time.

Rose just made us both see
what was right in front of us.

Someone entered the shop...

right after you that day.

Do you remember this person?

Yeah.

He was kind of
eccentric-looking.

Hmm.

This guy?

That's him.

Do I need a lawyer?

Why? Do you have
anything to hide?

No.

Mrs. Winters?

Ruby!

Hi.

Call me Gladys, dear.
You're not a student anymore.

I brought your favorite...

banana-flavored taffy.

You're such a dear.

These aren't easy to find!

Well, if anyone can,

it's our investigative reporter.

I'm on the crime beat now.

You don't say.
You know...

the only time you were on
the wrong side of the law

was when you and Derek
set the frogs free

in science class.

Mr. Scattergood was so mad.

Oh, he was hoppin' mad.

You had everyone chanting.

"Free Kermit!"

[over P.A. system]
...Free Kermit!

Kermit?

[echoing over P.A.]
Free Kermit!

This thing's dangerous.

[chuckling]

Don't worry.

These kids don't even know
who "Kermit" is.

[laughs]

So, are you here
about the reunion?

Actually, I was hoping

you could help me
find Sloan Waller.

Ms. Donovan's sub.

She's on a spare right now.

A lot of the teachers
unwind out in the courtyard.

Thanks, Gladys.

See you this weekend.

See you then.

Sloan?

Yes.

Hi. Ruby Herring.

We met the other night
in the gym.

Yes. Hi.

I don't know if you know,
but I'm a reporter with 57 News.

Uh, sorry.

I haven't seen the news
in a while.

I've been out of the country.

Singapore, right?

Yeah. Just got back a month ago
after five years.

I missed Seattle.

How'd you know that, anyway?

I've been assigned
to the Rose Vitello murder.

You knew her?

Rose. Rest her soul.

I'm actually scheduled
to go to the police station

tomorrow for an interview.

Apparently, they're talking
to everyone again.

Were you able to help
with the initial investigation?

Not really.

I knew a little bit
about Rose's relationships,

but that's it.

You two were tight?

I lost my mom and dad
when I was a little girl

and my grandmother raised me.

Rose became like family.

That's nice.

I actually met
her daughter, Emily.

Emily.

Did you like her?

Look, I don't want
to say too much.

Emily didn't have
a whole lot of respect for Rose.

How so?

She was always
questioning her mother's gift.

Did you believe in Rose's gift?

I did.

But it was more than that.

My ex hated that I spent
so much money on her,

but what he didn't understand

is that Rose gave me
love and guidance in return.

Makes sense.

Why did you leave for Singapore?

It's gonna sound cliche,

but I needed
to find myself again.

Henry and I were
supposed to get married,

and I called everything off
right before the wedding.

I went through
something painfully similar.

Actually, my ex is in town
for the reunion.

Huh. Good luck.

So, what... what happened
with you and Henry?

We drifted apart.

It was for the best.

He wasn't the right man for me.

Better to figure that out
before you say "I do."

- Right?
- Mm.

And the invitations
had already gone out,

the venue was paid for.

We even had our engagement photo
in the paper.

How did Henry take it?

He was mad.
A little embarrassed.

I felt terrible.

[school bell rings]

I actually have to get going
to my next class.

Sure.

Oh, by the way,

Uh, I heard
that Rose had some issues

with Travis Tru,
another psychic.

He was a total fraud.

So many of them are.

See you later.

Bye.

Derek?

Any interest in knowing
what the future holds?

♪ ♪

Can I help you?

Yeah. I'm Detective
Jake Killian, Seattle P.D.

I'd like to ask you
a few questions

about Rose Vitello.

When is this thing gonna die?

Pardon me?

Sorry.

Poor choice of words.

It's just
I already talked ad nauseam

with that other detective
about Rose.

I didn't kill her,

I don't know who killed her,

and I can't predict
who killed her.

I still have
a few questions for you.

I need to do
a reading on you first,

It's the only way
I can trust you.

You know, no disrespect,

All right, fine.

Hmm. That looks like
Jake's car.

Uh, we should leave.

Oh, no. We're not leaving.

Let it all go.

Silence your mind.

What, you need my palms, or...?

Shh!

Should I think of a number?

Silence.

Just relax.

Close your eyes.

Your aura

so uptight, Detective?

I'm not "uptight."

Just bre-e-e-eathe.

I'm always breathing.

An older woman is here with us.

Very special.

I'm feeling... a "D."

what she taught you.

I smell... vanilla?

I helped her bake

She's always with you.

But I'm sensing
a new woman in your life...

a fiery gem.

[whispers] Oh! That's you!

Hi!

How long
have you been standing there?

Oh, we just got here.

The whole time.

- Derek!
- You know psychics freak me out.

This negative energy
is clogging my chakras.

I think you all should leave.

You said the death card
was coming Rose's way.

Did you kill her?

No. I just wanted to scare her.

I spent hours
talking to that detective

five years ago,

and now I'm done.

Leave.

I'm gonna wait in the car.

Well, thanks a lot.

I was about to get him to talk.

Not to mention

I had to listen to that guy
tell me how to "relax."

He was eerily good, though,
don't you think?

I don't think he did it.

Are you getting another one
of your "Herring Hunches"?

Because you know those aren't
admissible in court.

No, it's just...

why would you threaten to kill
someone on a public forum,

and then actually do it?

Not a smart move.

Well, he thought
his comment was anonymous.

And that tip you gave me,
about the missing tarot card?

That was the "death" card.

[Ruby inhales deeply]

Still...

Well, all I know

is I can see
into my future right now...

three hours of listening
to an original interview

with an "intuitive advisor."

Mm-hmm.

Well, if you're not too sleepy

Was Henry ever violent?

No.

He could have a temper, but...

Yeah? How so?

Well, this one time
on the golf course,

he got so frustrated
that he started

chopping all the flowers
with his sand wedge

Not that I'm aware of.

He convinced her

it was "in the cards"

She found him handsome
in a rugged kinda way.

Did you like him?

He's not
a "forever" kind of guy.

So I take it,
it didn't last with the captain?

Rose broke up with him
when she found out

that his rough side
was really rough.

How so?

Something bad happened
on a commercial fishing boat.

I-I don't really know,
but it spooked her.

Then she quickly found out
you do not dump Richard.

He did not take it well.

Did the police talk to him

I'm sure they did,

but they need to again.

They also need to be
talking to Henry.

Oh. Well, anywhere
I can disappear, really.

Less people, the better.

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

Why do you call your mom "Rose"?

I call her "Rose"

because she never
treated me like a daughter,

more like an inconvenience.

Sure do. Goes back decades.

We got a good, old-fashioned
filing system.

Pencil and paper.

I don't like change much.

What do you need?

I was looking for the log
from March 22, 2015.

Emerald Cove Tour boats
apparently went out,

helmed by Captain Kirk.

I'll get that for you.

That's a popular log.

A detective came by.

said he wanted to look
at that, too.

I've got it right here.
Yeah.

Let's see... March 22nd.

Yep.

"Captain Richard Kirk."

He said he has a son.
Do you know his name?

Sure do.

"Captain Kirk Junior."

Could he have been the one
operating that night?

Did anyone confirm
with the guests

that it was actually
Richard Kirk Senior?

Well, I don't know,

but that boat goes out
like clockwork

every night, 7:00,
Senior at the helm.

Would you have a list
of the guests from that night?

Oh, that'd be long gone by now.

But there is one thing that
we do computerize around here.

We started saving
video surveillance

about five years ago...

liability purposes.

The detective
never took a look at this?

Well, he seemed satisfied
with the log...

that, and he had an eyewitness.

Me.

I saw Richard get on the boat
that night,

just before 7:00.

There it is.

Just like the log said...

Boat took off
7:00 p.m. that night.

Can you go back to before
the passengers got on?

Mm.

Is that his son?

Yeah, that's him.

Son of a gun.

Senior traded places
with Junior.

Do you mind if
I record this with my phone?

No.

You think that detective's
gonna want to see this?

Oh, you can count on it.

It's not my fault
my son didn't write "Junior"

at the end of his name
on the log.

He's my back-up.

Yeah, but still,

you lied
to the original detective

about being on the boat
that night.

Why?

Didn't feel like
getting tangled up

in another investigation.

You know we can add "perjury"
to your extensive rap sheet.

Better than "murder."

Where'd you go that night?

After you left the boat.

[sighs]

To see Rose.

To talk.

About what?

I wanted her back.

I mean, it's not every day
a pretty pearl like her

is into an old barnacle like me.

How'd she feel about that?

Ah, she was done with me.

So I said goodbye and left.

I'm not one to beg.

I heard you took it
a lot harder than that.

Look. I didn't do it.

There was no way
I'm going back to the joint.

I spent a year in there
before my trial.

Never again.

How did Killian miss this?

I kinda got there first.

Beat the brass? Nice.

He's interviewing
Captain Kirk as we speak.

You think "beam me up, Scottie"
could've done it?

He has a violent past,

but if he wanted
to get rid of the gun,

why not just
throw it in the ocean?

He was out on the water
every night.

True.

And those clues you got

didn't really connect
to him, right?

They seem to point
more toward Henry,

but it doesn't mean
Richard didn't do it.

I wonder
who sent you those clues.

Emily?
Travis Tru, maybe?

Speaking of...

I checked out Mr. Tru for you.

He's got an arrest record.

Sealed. Darn.

[Angela] Good thing I've got
connections at the courthouse.

Ah-hah!

What was he arrested for?

Fraud. Travis bilked
tens of thousands of dollars

out of his clients for
some phony crystal procedure.

Rose convinced them
to go to the police.

When he found out, he was irate.

I think it's time to see

if the "Truth Teller"
is really telling the truth.

[Frank]
Good luck with that.

Hello, Ruby.

[Ruby chuckles incredulously]

Please. Please.

Sit for a reading.

I'm good.

You're troubled.

Torn.

You know, I was...
I was wondering

if you could tell me more
about your arrest.

I heard that Rose was leading
the charge against you.

You're afraid.

Afraid to make
the wrong decision, again.

Okay. This isn't about me.

Rose tried to ruin you.

Rose was a wretched woman
who practiced hocus-pocus.

She deserved to die.

Your ex left you
at the altar, didn't he?

No! No, that was
a mutual decision.

And how do you know that?

I'm psychic, remember?

Why have you been
looking into me?

I haven't...

Ruby Marie.

How about
you stay out of my life,

and I'll stay out of yours?

Did you send me those clues?

We're done here.

Leave.

Now!

[beads clatter]

[overlapping] Whoa!

What, are you a psychic now?

I'm here because
I found out about the lawsuit.

Yeah. I don't think
he's talking anymore.

Really?

But I do think that Travis
knows who killed Rose.

Why?

He might've been the one
who sent me those clues.

He knew all this stuff
about my life,

and then he used the words
"hocus pocus,"

like in the first clue.

[text alerts chime]

[overlapping] Dakota.

The FBI found something.

So get this.

When a person loads a bullet,

their fingers leave behind
a tiny amount of sweat.

And when the bullet's fired,
the heat vaporizes the sweat.

A chemical reaction
with the metal

etches the fingerprint
permanently into the casing.

[overlapping] Wow.

Are you telling me
you have a print?

Well, a partial.

But it should be enough
to find a match,

if your killer's in the system.

[Jake] Oh, got a hit.

[Ruby] Monica Bards?

Why are her prints
even in the system?

Oh, looks like...

she got a "reckless driving"
charge in 2010.

Explains why
she drives a golf cart.

Well, I'm putting out
a warrant for her arrest.

But Rose telling Sloan
to dump Henry

only helped Monica.

Why would she kill her?

Well, maybe she did it
for Henry,

or with Henry?

People do
twisted things for love.

I did not have it out for Rose.

[Jake] But Henry did.

Did you kill her for him?

No!

And yet there's your print
on the bullet.

How do you explain that?

I can't.

[sighs]

Wait.

Um, there was a day that Henry
and I went to the range.

I loaded his revolver for him.

Henry said he didn't like guns.

Because of me.

Look, I know my way
around a gun,

but I had a brother
who died in a hunting accident.

After that, I told Henry
to sell the revolver,

and we never went back.

So you're saying
Henry sold a loaded gun

to a pawn shop?

There must've been a bullet

accidentally left
in the chamber.

Look, I'm bringing
Henry back in.

Do you know where he is?

He's teaching at a golf camp
down in Oregon.

Hmm.

Okay, well, we have
to bring him back here.

Now.

[helium whooshing]

So, how was dinner with Luke?

It's nice to see him
again, I guess.

You guess?

I mean, I don't know.

Kind of feels like old times.

Like an old shoe,

or like old
high-school butterflies?

He kept the engagement ring.

Whoa! The one with the rubies?

Yeah.

Did he get down on his knees
and propose?

No.

Uh, hang on.

I'll be back in a minute.
- 'Kay.

Hey, Ruby.

Hey. How's
the teaching gig going?

Really good.

Oh, but I'm hoping to get
something full-time.

I'm sure it'll happen.

Cool tattoo, by the way.

Oh... just a silly
high school thing.

Oh, where'd you go?

Taft.

Our arch rivals.

I know, right?

Here I am,
organizing a Patriot reunion.

Anything to get into
Principal Nardone's good books.

How're things going
with your ex?

Ah, it's getting better.

What about you?
Have you seen yours?

No, he's too busy with his wife.

You know, expecting a baby, so.

He's having a baby?

Yeah!

I think I saw it
on social media somewhere.

Um, I actually have to go check

when the drinks
are getting delivered.

Excuse me.

Okay.

Henry and Monica

said they haven't told anyone
about the baby.

How would Sloan know?

That is weird.

Mm.

Unless she found a way to know
everything about Henry's life

when she got back
from Singapore.

When did she get back?

She said a month ago.

Mm. Let's check.

Right...

Mm-hmm.

Her profile says

that she stopped teaching
at the Singapore school

two months ago.

And that's when
her posts stopped as well.

Maybe she came back
earlier than she said she did?

I noticed
that tattoo on her arm.

[Angela]
That's the "Karma" symbol.

Sloan said her engagement photo
was in the paper.

See if it's still
on her website.

Mm-hmm.

[Ruby] Weird. No tattoo.

She told me she got it
back in high school.

Why would she lie about that?

I don't know.

[sighs] Oh. Karma...

Mm. Karma.

I'm starting to wonder

if Sloan wasn't as cool
with her breakup with Henry

as she's letting on.

She's still single.

She has no real job.

She comes back, finds out
that he's having a baby...

and he's happier
than he's ever been, but...

I think you may be
on to something.

I wonder if she hikes?

Or if she lives
near Shannon Falls?

She said she went to Taft High.

That's close to the falls.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, she lived with her grandma.

There is a "Mary Waller"
in the area.

Hmm.

And we know the clues,
they point to Henry.

Oh, can you pull up
the first clue?

Mm-hmm.

Do you see that?
The date.

It's not written American-style.

"26-3-2020."

The day is first.

Singapore.

Day first, month second.

I think Sloan
was trying to frame Henry.

And my police sources

tell me the food-cart lady
at the golf course

has been arrested.

Hmm.

Well, I guess we have
our lead story at 6:00.

I can't believe
Ruby didn't know this

or tell me about it.

I have some questions
I wanted to ask you.

Can you believe it?

Monica, a killer?

I saw it on the news.

She's no killer.

What do you mean?

Henry's the one
who had a grudge against Rose.

He's the one
who should be behind bars.

You think he killed her?

Well, it's obvious
he had motive.

Because Rose convinced you
to break up with him,

and she took all your money

that you two had saved up
for a house?

Exactly.

Henry hated her.

So is this about karma?

Henry should pay
for what he did?

Yeah.

Why did you tell me

you got your karma tattoo
in high school?

I saw your engagement photo.

No tattoo.

I covered it up with makeup.

I think you know more

about Rose Vitello's murder
than you're letting on.

[Sloan] I have my suspicions,
but that's it.

You said
you knew about Henry's baby.

There's no way
you could've known that.

I heard it somewhere.

What does it matter?

Henry told me

that Monica was so much better
for him.

She was desperate.

Pathetic.

She never loved him
the way I did.

You tried to get him back,
didn't you?

But he rejected you

and you blamed Rose.

I don't like your tone.

[Jake] Back away.

I followed your hunch, Ruby.

Turns out Sloan was here
for two months, not one.

So, what, you gonna arrest me

for coming home
earlier than I said?

And you've been staying
at your grandmother's house,

not too far
from where we found the gun.

Grandma Mary's, was it?

I got a warrant
for your old bank records.

You were broke
when you left for Singapore.

Almost every penny you had
went to Rose.

Tell us
what really happened, Sloan.

Tell us.

I realized Henry really was
the right man for me...

but it was too late.

Said I never should've
listened to Rose.

So I thought that

if I could get the money back
for our house,

I could fix it,

so I went to see to Rose

and I told her how she'd been
wrong about Henry,

and I begged her

for our money back.

[laughs]

She laughed at me!

She never cared about me!

I mean, she was a con artist.

And I was angry,

so I went back later,

everything was okay,
