All language subtitles for 7 - Deadly History (2021)

Ok.

Just...

Ahh!

Al Winslow.

Of course.

Hey, are you...

Hello?

Ah!

Ow!

Is someone there?

Is someone out there?

Oh man.

Dad, did you get any sleep
last night?

Ah, a few minutes maybe.

Hey, listen, guys.

Before we get in there,

I know you've heard
this before,

but I can't tell you
how much

I appreciate you
dropping everything

and jumping
on the red eye.

Well, he's my family too.

Yeah, and you guys are

the closest thing I got
to family, so...

Let's go.

Hiya, folks.

Harry Ridgeway.

Amy Winslow, we spoke
on the phone.

This is my father, Graham.

Hi.

We talked also.

And this is our friend, Travis.

Travis Burke.

It's nice to meet you.

And you,

I'm just sorry it's under
these circumstances, but...

Please, have a seat.

Yeah, ok.

Well, we put out an APB on him
and on his car,

which is also missing.

And we spent a lot of yesterday
searching the forest

adjacent to his property,

but not even a whiff of him
with the dogs.

Did you happen to receive
a ransom demand

since we last spoke?

No.

When's the last time
you talked to your brother?

Well I, I saw him a little over
a week ago.

I was in town doing
a book reading.

Haven't spoken to him
since then.

How did he seem?

Anything unusual?

Well, I, I mentioned this
to Amy,

he left right in the middle
of my, my reading.

He came back at the end,
said it was a work emergency,

but, uh, at30 at night
what kind of emergency

is a history professor having?
So...

Did you press him on it?

He doesn't like me
being judgmental.

How would you describe your
relationship with your brother?

He's my baby brother.

We live thousands of miles away
and we have very busy lives.

So not exactly close?

No.

But, uh, since my wife passed
I wanted to be closer.

Frankly, sheriff,
I'm scared to death

that I'm never going
to get that chance.

Amy had said that you found
blood stains at Al's house.

We're trying to match those

to the DNA we pulled from
Professor Winslow's hairbrush.

How long is that gonna take?

Three days.

Seventy-two hours.

So you're familiar with
the window

for locating missing persons?

I'm a crime novelist, sheriff.

And Travis is in your field.

Well, well.

What's the matter, you don't
trust me, Mr. Winslow?

Oh, no, no, no, no.

No.

It's not like that.

No?

No.

I'm here to support my friends.

And cop to cop, I have
no interest in trespassing

in your jurisdiction, Sheriff.

Harry's fine.

And to tell you the truth,

I could use your hand
on this one, Detective.

I'm here for whatever you need.

Amy, she served as a consultant

with my police department
in Washington

and she's helped us close
quite a few cases recently,

so she's an asset.

Ok.

So what can I tell you to help
you get up to speed?

Well, were you able to determine
the last person

that actually spoke to my uncle?

As far as we can ascertain,

that would be his teaching
assistant, Lucy Harding.

She was with him
at his office Friday,

until he left for home
around00PM.

My Father and I know Lucy.

She's a bright young woman.

We haven't been able
to find his cell phone,

so either it's turned off
or destroyed,

but records show
that the last call

he made with it was
at55PM on Friday.

Does he have a landline
at his house?

He got a call there on
Friday night at27

from a pay as you go cell.

He definitely did pick up,

but that was the last call
he's gotten.

You're saying nobody's seen
or talked to him since then?

So that means that there's
a high probability

that Alister has been missing
for more than 72 hours?

Let's not get ahead of our skis,
Mr. Winslow.

Especially since you brought
in reinforcements.

Ok?

Where are you folks staying?

Kent Lake House.

Well why don't you
all get checked in

and then I'll meet you
at your uncle's

and we can all go over
the scene

and maybe you'll pick up
something that we missed.

Ok.

Thank you.

Thank you, Sheriff.

Thank you.

Harry.

Ok.

Hey, how are you today?

So here's this, for us.

Thank you so much, we'll
meet you up at the room.

Hey guys.

So, listen, uh...

I know you have
the experience

but I wouldn't mind
tagging along.

Oh, you know Graham I know
that you're nervous

and you're worried about
your brother, I understand,

but this is an active,
open investigation.

It's not safe.

Yeah, and Dad, you
haven't slept at all.

You can barely keep
your eyes open.

Why don't you just,
you know, take a,

like a 30-minute nap.

A nap?

Travis? Come on.

Graham. I'm sorry, I'm on Amy's
side with this one.

Oh. Oh!

Dad?

No.

Dad!

Welcome to Kent Lake House.

Hi, I'm Graham Winslow.

Yes, Mr. Winslow, we have
your reservations.

Great.

These two have an appointment

and they were hoping to store
their luggage.

Of course.

Ms. Winslow, Mr. Burke,
we'll take care of your bags

and here are your keys.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

Ms...

Espinosa, but you
can call me Jennifer.

Thanks, Jennifer.

Ok. I'll call you after
my 30-minute power nap.

Max.

Ok, Dad.

I don't know, the way
he said that,

you think it's gonna be
30 minutes?

It'll be four hours.

So, how long's it been
since you've seen your uncle?

It's been a couple years.

I stayed with him and my uh...
huh, "Aunt" Carmela.

Why do you say it like,
"huh, aunt?"

What's that?

Well, because I mean
we're practically the same age.

I don't really call her my aunt,
you know?

Ok.

Did you know that Uncle Alister

is only a few years older
than I am?

No, I didn't know that.

Yeah.

So when my Grandmother died,

my Grandfather married
my step Gran

who was quite a bit younger.

Ok.

Had Uncle Alister.

I mean, my Dad was in high
school when Alister was born.

So, "baby brother," literally?

Yeah. Correct.

And correct use of
the word "literally."

I pay attention when you share
your pet peeves, Amy.

Mmm. Smart man.

Well this is quite
the collection.

Yeah, his history focus was

on the second half
of the 20th century.

Spent a lot of time on eBay
and at garage sales.

I mean, some of this stuff
is worth a pretty penny.

Yeah, I'd say so.

So, to my eye, nothing
has been ransacked.

To me, it doesn't look like
anything was stolen.

His teaching assistant said
the same thing.

When she came looking
for him Monday,

front door was unlocked.

And what about
the back door?

Locked.

Same with all the windows.

So, whoever came over
on Friday...

He let them in.

Yeah.

Man.

He might have offered
his visitor a drink.

Over here.

Lucy comes in, sees the broken
bottle and the dried blood.

Ok, so the broken glass
was here.

Yeah.

You know, there's not a lot
of blood in the photo.

Somebody got cut.

Anyway, Lucy gets scared
and keeps looking for Al

and winds up in the bedroom.

Show me.

We pulled a single slug
out of the floor here.

That's a .22 caliber.

Um, what about these prints?

Match your uncle's that
we found all over the house.

Did you find any other prints
in the house?

Not bloody ones, but yes.

Lucy Harding's and a few of
the ex-wife, Carmela Rhee.

Missing towels.

Huh.

Curious Incident of the Dog
in the Nighttime.

Wait, Al had a dog?

Mm... no.

Oh, no, oh, sorry.

It just, well that reminded me

of a Sherlock Holmes story
that I teach.

The Adventures of Silver Blaze?

It's about a stolen horse.

Anyway, my point is, is that
Sherlock was able to solve

the mystery based on the things
that were missing.

Which, in this case,
was a dog's bark.

And the missing towels
could mean that the shooter

brought your Uncle Al in here
to dress the wound?

Which could mean that
the shot was unintentional.

Which could mean that
the shooter wanted

to make sure that
your uncle survived.

Yeah.

What are you looking for?

Nothing.

Literally.

Empty spaces.

More missing things.

Got a closet filled
with empty hangers.

Are you saying they
packed clothes for him?

That's what it looks like.

Hey, did you already remove
the evidence off this table?

No, why?

Well, because my Father,
my uncle and I,

we all do the same thing,

we keep a stack of books that
we're working our way through.

And you can see where
the demarcation is
of the sun damage,

so why, why would he pack
books and clothes?

It's a good question.

But, I'll tell ya, sure glad
you two are on the team.

How 'bout we go to the college
and we see what you see there?

I'd love for you to talk to a
few people while we're here.

Sure.

So, uh, Lucy Harding, you uh,
teaching assistant,

you say you know her?

Yeah, I, I do.

She heard your uncle fighting
on Friday with this guy.

Mark Lyons?

Do you know who that is?

He's another history professor.

He's actually my
uncle's protege.

I don't know him really well.
I've met him once.

What were they fighting about?

According to Mark, her.

Carmela Rhee.

That's your ex-aunt who doesn't
like being called "aunt."

Yeah.

Mark says he told Al
that Carmela was trying

to get him fired.

Fired? What for?

Why don't we go ask him?

Professor Lyons.

Sheriff?

This is Amy Winslow.

Oh, of course,
Al's niece.

We met a couple
years ago.

You teach literature
at Elmstead College.

Good memory.

Well I am a history professor.

This is Detective Burke.

They're lending me a hand
in the search for Al Winslow.

How're you doing?

You got time to talk?

Certainly.

Please, come in.

The Sheriff said that you
and Al had a fight on Friday?

Fight?

I don't think I used that word.

No?

What word did you use?

Al was upset about
something I had to tell him.

What was that?

Carmela was threatening
to bring him up on charges

with the college ethics board.

For what?

I don't know.

Well then how do you know
she's planning on doing that?

She told me.

Now, I'm sure when she talked
to you, Sheriff,

she denied it.

She did.

Yeah, textbook Carmela.

She's been trying
to drive a wedge

between Al and me for years.

Did you know she
was having an affair?

I knew something about it,

but my uncle didn't
discuss the details.

Do you know
who it was with?

No.

Nor did Al.

I wish I could be
of more help.

Here, don't hesitate
to reach out, Amy.

For anything.

Sure.

Thank you.

I think I need to talk
to Carmela alone.

Yeah, that's probably
a good idea.

It works for me.

Meet you at your
uncle's office.

Ok, bye.

Carmela?

Oh, hi.

Amy.

You're here because of Al.

Yes.

Do you mind if we talk
for a minute?

Sure. Come on in.

Sheriff.

Oh, is there any...

No, no. No news yet.

This is Detective Burke.

He's lending us a hand.

Hi, Lucy.

Hi.

Could we take another look
at Professor Winslow's office?

Sure, yeah, no problem.

Oh wow.

Wow.

So was his office ransacked?

We did our best not
to rearrange anything.

Yeah, Al has a system.

He knows where everything is.

It would be a disaster
if he came back

and everything
was out of order.

So this is order?

Yeah.

So, my Father,
Travis and I

hopped on the first flight
we could.

Travis is quite the friend.

Or, might he be more
than that?

Well, Travis and I have
certainly faced

our fair share of, uh,
challenges. Yeah.

Facing challenges will
either bring people closer

or drive them apart.

What challenges drove you
and my uncle apart?

I always admired
your directness.

And I've always been impressed
with your charming evasion.

I suppose we're suited to our
literary specialties.

Mm-hm.

Crime fiction lays
everything out.

Victorian romance is all about
avoidance and obfuscation.

Look, Carmela, I'm, I'm not
here to argue with you.

I'm simply trying to figure out
if there's anything

in your split with my uncle

that would help me figure out
where he is

and what happened to him.

The police asked the same thing

and I'll tell you
what I told them.

I moved out nine months ago,

and we've barely interacted
since then.

Ok, well when is the last time
you spoke with him?

What?

Well, the fact is we spoke
briefly on Friday.

But, look, I don't want
to bad mouth your uncle.

About what?

We'd agreed in the divorce that,
among other things,

I'd get the Mercedes

and he'd buy me out of
my half of the house.

The judge signed the divorce
papers three weeks ago

but your uncle has yet
to provide me with a check.

On Friday, he came by here,
angry with me

and told me he didn't appreciate
being threatened.

You threatened him?

Certainly not.

He said something about a note
taped to his office door.

I told him I didn't know
what he was talking about.

Did he tell you what
the note said?

No.

He just apologized and left.

When was this?

Friday afternoon.

Right.

Thank you for your time.

Hey.

Hey, thought I heard you.

Come on in.

I know, I messed
with the system,

I will take the heat, Lucy.

But to find out if there's
anything useful here,

we need actual order.

Ok.

How'd it go?

Good.

Uh, Lucy, did my uncle ever
mention anything on Friday

about a threatening note
being attached to this door?

Uh, no.

Threatening how?

Well I don't know
the exact details,

but he told Carmela
about it.

You're talking
about this door?

Yeah.

You know what some of
my favorite things are?

Hmm?

Security cameras.

We might get lucky.

Let's start on Thursday night.

When did he leave the office?

Hmm.

15PM.

All right.

Hey, who, who is that?

That's just a private
tutoring student.

It's Janey Sullivan.

Frank Sullivan's daughter?

Yeah.

Who is Frank Sullivan?

He runs the biggest construction
firm in the region

and the local political machine.

He's a powerful guy.

Got you elected.

I've always run
as an independent.

Go ahead and play it.

You don't have night vision
on these cameras?

I wish.

Yeah.

It's a university, you would
think they did.

Hold it, what is that?

That is an umbrella.

Well, it hasn't rained in weeks.

Hey, is there a way to mirror it
to that big ol' screen?

Sure.

Here we go.

What time does Al come in
on Fridays?

Well, we don't have classes
so it's usually afternoon.

Ok, go ahead and fast forward
up till then.

Oh, there he is.

What's on the door?

Get closer to it.

Oh, it's a photo.
It looks like a, maybe a lake?

I don't know. Can you print
that out for me?

Sure.

There, freeze it.

"Stop or I'll destroy you too."

I'll let our tech have
a look-see.

Maybe they'll pick up something
about this umbrella person.

Yeah, that works for me.

Hey, thank you Harry.

Carmela said that my uncle

was trying to buy her
out of the house

but he was dragging his feet
on the payments.

Do you know about that?

I know money was tight
and that he had taken on

a second job doing a history
display for Kent Lake Hotel

for their upcoming anniversary.

Right.

Plus all the private tutoring.

I mean, how many students
did he have?

Just Janey, but it was pro bono.

How did that work?

It was just a favor
for Janey's dad.

Frank Sullivan.

Were he and Al friends?

Um, I think so, but Sinead,
that's Janey's Mom,

she was much more involved.

She kept checking in with Al
to see how Janey was doing.

Do you happen to have their
phone number, by any chance?

Sure, yeah, I can
just text it to Amy.

Great.

Ok, so, money's tight,
but he's tutoring for free?

I know, I don't like the math
on that either.

Got it, thanks.

Would you happen
to know anything

about why Carmela
and my uncle split up?

Uh, I know it was her idea
and then a month later

she started coming around,

bringing him baked goods
and stuff.

Do you think maybe she wanted
to get back together?

Yeah, I think so.

What was Al's reaction to that?

He was super nice about it
but he made it clear

that he wasn't interested.

Listen, I have to get
to class-

Of course.

But here's an extra key
to our office.

Before you go,

do you happen to have the
passcode for Al's computer?

Yeah.

All of his passwords
are History 101,

but "history" is spelled
backwards.

Gotcha.

Yeah.

-Thank you, Lucy.
-No, thank you.

I feel a lot better now
that you guys are here.

Take care.

Thanks, Lucy.

-Let's go.
-Yeah.

Carmela said that my uncle
thought that she left the note,

but why would she say "stop"

if she wanted to get
back together?

Just doesn't make
any sense to me.

And then, what's with the "too?"

Right.

How many people does
she destroy?

You know?

Yeah.

-Travis?
-Yep, yeah.

-Hi.
-Yes.

The note.

-The note is troublesome-
-Yes.

But so is your uncle's
bank account.

Come here, look at this.

So, your uncle,

he's got $100,000 worth
of credit card debt.

Four months ago.

Ok, what happened
four months ago?

Well, four months ago he gets
a cash deposit of $100,000.

Woah.

Every Friday, he's taking cash
withdrawals $500,

like clockwork.

Uh-huh.

So what if he borrowed
that money from a loan shark?

And now he's paying
the loan shark back.

Yeah, I get it.

So what's his balance now?

It's better, look it,

he made a deposit of $25,000
two weeks ago.

But this time it's a check.

Can you pull up an image?

You bet we can.

Kent Lake House.
For consulting.

So that must be the job that
Lucy was telling us about.

But here's the thing,
even with that,

he still doesn't have enough
to pay off Carmela

for her half of the house.

No.

You know, I've been thinking,
I was wrong about something.

Really?

Yes.

Surprises me. What were
you wrong about?

I was wrong about
the fact

that my Dad's 30-minute
power nap

lasted way longer
than four hours.

Yeah, it did.

Yes, it did.

All right.

Well, I guess I'll take
my sandwich to my room.

Oh, yeah.

I, I thought maybe
we would eat together.

But that's ok, if you...

No, what are you
talking about,

that's what I wanted to,
you come in my room

and we'll eat together.

Oh, ok, so, so then
that's your idea.

You're stealing that?

Are you seriously accusing me
of theft?

Well that's, it's only because
you're stealing.

Hey, guys!

-Hi.
-Hi!

I thought I heard voices.

Hey, Dad.

How did you sleep?
How did you sleep?

Oh, I slept fantastic.

Hey, listen, I ordered
room service.

Do you want to join me
and catch me up?

We can, we can make
a plan for tomorrow?

Absolutely.

Yeah.

All right, come on in.

Okay.

Let's do that.

Hi, Dad.

Hi, sweetheart.

Hi.

Come in, buddy.

Got some sandwiches.

Yeah, good. Good.

I ordered room service.

Hey.

Hey, good morning.

Good morning.

How did you sleep?

Well, soundly.

Until00AM when I woke up
worrying again.

How'd you sleep?

You know.

Hi, good morning.

Can I get a cup of coffee,
black, please?

Make that two.

Thank you.

Good morning, Dad.

Hi, good morning.

So?

Where are we on the to-do list
we came up with last night?

Ok, so I spoke to the Dean
and set a meeting to talk

about the ethics board complaint
that Carmela apparently made.

That's great.

And I talked to Harry,

caught him up on everything
he missed yesterday.

He's gonna meet us here.

Great. Great.

I got in touch with
Sinead Sullivan

and I told her about Alister and
she agreed to meet us today.

Ok, good.

And I also saw Jennifer
at the front desk

and I asked her if we could
talk to the person in charge

of the consulting work
that Alister is doing for them.

Wow, way to go Dad,
you're on it.

Just doing my best,
Atticus Keller impersonation.

Ah.

Thank you.

-Hello, folks.
-Hi.

This is Olly Kent, the CEO
of the Lake House.

Hi.

Graham Winslow.

Oh, Pi Beta Gamma.

Yes.

Are you a brother?

Oh, no, no.

I, I taught a bunch of them
in a previous life

as a college professor.

Amy Winslow, it's nice
to meet you.

Hi.

How're you doing?
Travis Burke.

Pleasure.

Now, did you build this place?

My Dad.

This was all wilderness
before he had his dream

to make the premiere resort
destination in central New York.

Well, it's beautiful.

Yeah, I'm fortunate that
the baton was passed to me.

Olly's also our
resident photographer.

He took all of these pictures.

Well, my drone helped
with that one.

Mr. Winslow.

I feel a little silly,
but I was wondering...

No. It's a writer
without a pen.

Olly, right?

Please.

So, my brother Alister

is doing some consulting work
for you here

and, uh, I was wondering
what that's all about?

Jen, do you know about this?

No, I'm sorry, I don't.

You said your brother
told you this?

Actually, my uncle
has gone missing.

No one's seen him
since Friday.

Oh, my goodness.
That's horrible.

I'm so sorry.

But you say that you
haven't heard anything

about the consulting?

Maybe Mrs. Kent
knows something?

My Mother.

Eleanor.

She and I are co-owners.

It's a good bet.

Jen, do you mind handling?

I've got a call with suppliers.

Of course.

Please, just reach out.

Let us know if there's anything
we can do.

-Great.
-Thank you.

-Nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.

Again, lovely place.

Eleanor Kent.

Lovely to meet you all.

Nice to meet you.

Yes, I hired Al Winslow.

In two years it's going
to be

the 50th anniversary
of this place

and I wanted to create
a space at the Lake House

dedicated to our family history
in its very early days.

And I'm terribly sorry about
this latest turn of events.

Have you spoken
with Harry Ridgeway?

He's an old friend.

He's being very helpful.

Yeah, Mrs. Kent, when is
the last time that you saw Al?

Well, now that would be when
he dropped by to raid my attic.

A week or so ago.

Raid your attic?

Yes, he wanted to find anything
to do with the history

of Kent Lake House
and our family.

So he started with my husband's
papers and... Meg's.

And who is Meg?

My daughter.
She passed.

It would be 20 years ago
this summer.

Sorry.

It was such a terrible day.

To lose both Meg and Mr. Kent.

Was it an accident?

Meg, yes.

She lost control of her boat
out on the lake.

She and Olly were racing
at night,

as they had done
so many times before.

But when I told Preston
that Meg had...

Mr. Kent had had open heart
surgery just two weeks before.

The news of Meg,

he had a heart attack
that was fatal.

That's awful.

I'm sorry.

Now, Jennifer, were you here
at that time?

Oh, yes.

Jennifer practically grew up
at the Lake House.

My mother worked the front desk,
just like me.

Hmm.

But, forgive me, here you are
facing a present crisis

and I'm waxing on about
two decades old grief.

Grief pays no mind to time.

My wife passed
three years ago.

You never get over it.

You just get through it.

You know, this really is
a lovely place.

Yeah, it is.

Apparently they do a lot of
weddings here.

Oh, Dad.

They do, huh?

Yeah.

Who'd you hear that from?

Brochure.

You have a brochure?

Yeah. See?

Weddings.

Dad.

Hey, Dad-

Yeah.

Where did you get
this from?

In the rack,
out front, why?

Because this is the same image
that we found on Alister's door.

They have it here.

All right, so what if the
kidnapper left this on the door?

That could mean...

Mean what?

Oh, hey Harry.

So, this is an exact match
for the note left

on Uncle Alister's door.

Oh, man.

I feel like such an idiot.

These postcards are sold
all over town.

You know how it takes
a while to notice

what's right in front of you.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm familiar
with the phenomenon.

So, if the kidnapper left this
postcard on your brother's door,

it could mean that he knew
that Al was working on

the history project for
the Kent Lake House, right?

So, who knew that?

Well, that we know
for sure,

there's Eleanor Kent
and Lucy Harding.

Lucy, who had access to your
uncle's office and house

for days before we knew
he was missing.

I don't know, Harry.

I trust her.

Well why don't we go talk
to her, together.

She might be more comfortable
with you.

Ok. I like that.

Divide and conquer

and then Travis and I will go
talk to the Dean

about the ethics board.

Sounds good.

Ok.

I was hoping you could give me
some news about Al.

Well, nothing concrete but we
are learning some things

that we hope will be helpful.

Which is why we're here
to talk to you.

I understand.

Is there an ethics board
investigation into Al?

We have very strict legal rules
around these matters.

I have to be careful.

However, if you were to rephrase
your question

and ask about the subject
of an investigation.

Is Al the subject
of an investigation?

No.

Ok, but you can't tell us
who is, of course?

No, not without a court order.

Right.

I have a question
for you though.

Huh.

Who told you about this?

Uh, Mark Lyons told us that
my ex-aunt filed the complaint.

Well, without
revealing anything,

I would suggest that you look
a little more into that.

Well thank you, Dean.

Thank you.

Have a good day.

Ah, that was revealing.

Yeah, so, either Mark lied
to us...

Or Carmela lied to him.

Exactly.

Hi, Carmela, can we talk to you
for a minute?

I'd love to chat, but I have
a lecture to give.

Ok. Well, we'll walk with you.

Shouldn't take long.

Well what, what is it?

And who is this?

I'm Travis Burke.

Oh, the boyfriend.

What exactly did my uncle say
about the note

that you left on the door?

I didn't leave it,
I told you.

Right, of course,
but what did he say?

I don't recall
his exact words.

Ok, well, just happen
to have gotten

a copy of the actual note.

Ok.

And, you know,
when I was reading it,

I couldn't understand
why my uncle would think

that you wrote this.

I have no idea.

And I have to get
to my classroom.

Is it because he filed
a complaint against you

with the ethics board?

Who told you that?

Is it true?

Ask your uncle,
if you find him.

I have a class to teach.

So, you used the word
"boyfriend."

No, I did not use
that exact word.

I mean I'm not against
using that word, but...

Hey.

Hey, so we just found out
that Al is not the subject

of the ethics board complaint.

There's a possibility that
he actually filed the claim

against Carmela.

So she was lying before?

Well, Mark said that
she was considering filing.

I mean, maybe hers was
a counterclaim?

Hey, have you done a complete
background check

on both Carmela and Mark?

It was on my to do list,
but I'm moving it to the top.

Graham!

Hey. Hi, kiddo.

I got your message,
but I was teaching.

So glad you're here.

How're you holding up?

About as good as you,
I bet.

Is there any progress?

We were actually wondering
whether you were helping Alister

with his Kent Lake House
project?

Sure, I mean I help wherever
I can,

but Al just got started
collecting papers and such.

It's strange, I didn't see
anything about the Lake House

in Al's papers.

Well, that's because
it's all at my place.

Lucy, have you told anybody else
about this project?

Just Mark.

Professor Lyons.

When was that?

Uh, Friday night.

He came over to my place
for dinner.

What time did he leave?

Early.

Before00PM.

That is early.

Thanks, Lucy.

Sure. Keep me posted.

Bye.

-See you later.
-See ya.

Ok.

So he leaves before00PM.

Al got a phone call at27PM
on that burner phone.

Mark could have called
to see if Al was home.

Come by, Al certainly
would've opened the door.

But what's the motive?

And how is that connected
to the warning?

You're assuming
that the postcard

and the kidnapping
are connected.

Maybe they aren't?

Yeah, well either way,

I want to talk to this guy.

Let's not go in blind there,
Big City.

Let me dig around first and see
what I can find on him.

Guys, we're due
at the Sullivan's.

Ok.

Thanks.

See ya, Harry.

Quite the edifice.

Hi.

I'm Graham Winslow.

This is my daughter,
Amy Winslow.

Hi.

Travis Burke.

We have a meeting with Sinead
and Janey Sullivan.

And me.

Frank Sullivan, pleasure
to meet you, Mr. Winslow.

Come on in.

Thanks.

Thanks for seeing us.

Of course.

It's nice to finally meet

the famous and successful
brother of Al.

Oh, well, you know.
I do all right.

Better than all right.

Tell the man what you want
to do, Janey.

I'm interested in writing.

See, I wanted her to go
into the family business.

I tried the starving artist
argument on her,

but, what did you tell me,
Janey?

That Professor Winslow's brother
has sold millions of books.

And made millions of dollars
doing it.

Don't forget that.

Frank, you're embarrassing her.

And our guests.

No, it's fine.

Am I?

Forgive me.

So, how can we help?

Um, well I was
actually wondering,

Janey, when did you start
working with Professor Winslow?

That was through me.

Al and I had some dealings.

Yeah, what kind of dealings?

You'd have to ask Al about that,
wouldn't you?

Did you have a tutor session

with Professor Winslow
on Friday?

Uh, no, actually Al cancelled.

Do you know why he canceled,
Janey?

Well, he called me and he merely
said something had come up.

Huh.

Yeah.

And how did he sound
when he spoke to you?

Fine.

But, you know, I don't know him
terribly well.

So...

Right.

Hmm.

Uh-oh. Honey?

Are you ok?

Yeah, I've just got a...

sorry these migraines just
come on so fast.

I hate to even ask this, but
would you happen to have-

Of course-

Anything I could take
for my head?

Yes!

Sure, yes.

Sorry.

No.

Oh dear.

Have some water.

I'm a little confused.

I thought that you and
my uncle talked a lot.

If Al told you that,
then he also told you

what my husband
is capable of.

Sinead, I...

Your uncle lead me to believe
that you're quite brilliant.

If that's so, then you'll
leave matters alone.

I would truly hate for
someone else to go missing.

Yeah, but why would Sinead
be behind Al's disappearance

if they're still friends?

Yeah, see, maybe they're not,
right?

Maybe they're more than that,

and maybe Frank Sullivan
found out?

"I know what my husband's
capable of."

Blood at Alister's house.

You think Frank Sullivan...

Dad.

No, no, no.

No, no, come on,
we've all been thinking it

since we heard about the blood
that my baby brother is...

Hey, no.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

This is my fault.

What?

No.

You heard what
Frank Sullivan said.

Private dealings.

Al went to that thug for money
instead of coming to me.

Hold on.

Graham, we don't know
that Frank Sullivan

loaned your brother $100,000.

We don't know that.

You think that the boss of
the local political machine,

who runs a construction
business,

is above loan sharking?

No, no I don't.

But if Frank Sullivan loaned
your brother the money,

don't you think that he wants
Al around to pay him back?

Unless you're right.

Unless Sullivan found out
that his wife

and my brother were involved.

Now, I know, I know,
and I appreciate you guys

trying to spare me harsh truths,

but we're not getting anywhere
unless we consider all options.

But Graham...

Who's that?

I don't know,
unknown caller.

Hello.

We have your uncle.

It'll cost you $200,000
to get him back.

How do we know
that you have him?

Talk.

I'm ok. Don't worry.
I'm sorry about this.

That's enough.

Hey, hey, hey.

This is... this is
Graham Winslow.

I can get the money.

No, no.

I just, it will take me
a little time.

You have three hours.

We'll call you with
further instructions,

but if you go to the cops,
Al Winslow dies.

Hang on, can I speak to Al,
please?

Can I speak to...

I need to call my broker.

No, Dad, we need...

He's alive, Amy.

That's all that matters.

He's been in the bank
a long time.

Here he comes.

Hey, guys.

Hey.

Hey, how'd it go?

Got it.

What now?

Oh.

Now we answer the phone.

Hang on a second.
Let me record this.

Ready?

Ok, yeah.

Hello.

You get the money?

Yeah, I have it.

At00PM you'll take a boat

from the launch dock at Kent
Lake House, across the lake.

You'll receive
further instructions

once you're on the other side.

If we see any cops,

you can forget about
seeing your uncle again.

Hello?

Well, it's weird that means
they also know

we're staying at
the Kent Lake House.

Honey, I don't,
I don't like this.

Dad, they just want their money.

You don't know that.
What if they grab you too?

I don't like it either, Amy,

but I do have an idea that might
make it a little bit safer.

I think we should get
Sheriff Ridgeway involved.

No police.

They were clear.

Well, aren't you the police?

I noticed your badge
this morning.

They don't know that.

Plus, I'm not gonna be
carrying the money.

Ok.

How can I help?

All right, that drone
that you used to take

all these fancy pictures with,
does it have night vision?

How're you doing out there, Amy?

You know, if I weren't
carrying ransom money

to a kidnapper right now,

I'd tell you it's
a lovely evening

and I wish you were
beside me.

Uh, you're on speaker phone.

Thanks for the warning.

Hi, Dad!

Olly.

Hi, honey.

Hello.

Hey, heads up, I'm hearing
another engine.

Yeah, where's it coming from?

I'm not seeing anything.

My right, I think.

It seems to...

Amy!

That was gunfire.

Amy?

It's ok.

I'm ok.

That was gunfire.

There's another
boat approaching.

Look,
they're not letting her
get to the far shore.

Travis, we gotta get out there.

Yeah, yeah.

I need you to get me closer.

They might hear the drone.

I don't care.

Hey, I'm not looking,
just take the money.

Amy, he's coming onto your boat.

I need you to stay down,
keep your head down.

Stay calm, you're gonna be ok.

Where's my uncle?!

Amy!

I'm ok.

Amy, just don't
do anything.

Please.

It's ok, it's ok.

He took the key, I can't follow.

Which direction are they going?

West, toward Eagle Landing.

Ok, what's, what's out that way?

Uh, a path with an access road.

How do I get there?

Take the ATV.

All right.

Travis, what's going on?

It's Dad, honey.

We think we know where
they're coming ashore.

Travis is gonna intercept them.

I'm swimming back.

No, no, no, Amy.

Dad, I'll talk to you soon.

Amy!

Amy!

There's an ATV over there.

You see anyone else?

Let me get a little closer.

No.

I hope Travis is close
'cause they're taking off.

What's happening?

Travis just shot out
the kidnapper's front tire.

Show me your hands!

Show me your hands!

Take off your helmet.

She refused her phone call.

Folks, I gotta ask,

how come you didn't
notify me

when you received
the ransom demand?

She said no cops.

Well you didn't exactly honor
that condition, did ya?

She didn't know I was a cop.

If I was in your shoes, probably
how I would have handled it.

Now that she knows what you do,
let's go talk to her together.

Yeah.

Where's Al Winslow?

Where's my lawyer?

If you mean public defender,

they won't be available
until morning.

If you mean one of
your father's people,

you'll have to give your dad
a call.

Here, use mine.

Yours is evidence in a crime.

No?

Fine.

I'll call him for ya.

I assume that you boosted
the gun from him, yeah?

Wait.

Ah. Too late.

No, please don't.

Hey, Sheriff.
Hold, hold on a second.

Janey, you're obviously
very intelligent.

I mean, your lake plan
was brilliant.

You get Amy isolated,
you switch gears on her,

you make her give you
the cash

before she could even get
to the other side.

If we didn't have that drone,

you'd be who knows
where right now

counting your money.

Which means that you're
smart enough to know

that you are in serious
legal trouble.

Now, you could make
your circumstances better,

if you cooperate with us.

Would you like to do that?

All right.

Where is Al Winslow?

I don't know where
Professor Winslow is.

What?

Are you working with
somebody who does?

I didn't kidnap him.

Janey, we heard his voice.

That was from a voicemail
that he left me.

Come on, you expect us
to believe-

Believe what you want.

Listen, I only came up with
this plan after you showed up,

with Graham Winslow.

I knew that he could afford it
and after I had the money

I would have let you know
the truth.

Janey, your family obviously
has money.

No, my father does.

I'd like to make
my phone call now.

After that, I'll write out
my confession.

I thought we'd get him back.

Sorry, Dad.

I don't know.

Maybe she's lying, Graham.

It's hard to know what
to believe right now.

I know.

As Dashiell Hammett wrote,

the problem with putting
two and two together

is sometimes you get four.

And sometimes you get 22.

Yeah, I remember.

Well, we'll see if Janey
feels like changing her story

after a night in the cells.

What if she doesn't?

What if it's the truth?

I mean, nobody's heard
from Alister in five days.

I know, Mr. Winslow.

And we're all working the case.

Speaking of which,

I did that digging into
Carmela Rhee and Mark Lyons.

Anything?

Well, Carmela seems like
a stand-up citizen.

Mark Lyons?

Couple of bumps.

His credit report is bad,
he's carrying some major debt.

And one of my deputies
ticketed him last year

for disturbing the peace.

So, Mark fought with
one of your deputies

over where a car was parked?

Did you talk to Deputy Patrick?

Not yet, but she's
on shift tonight.

Yeah, I remember him.

He was so belligerent I was
ready to haul him in,

but his wife begged me not to.

So, I just wrote it up
as disturbing the peace

and I made him pay
a big fine.

His wife?

Yeah, it was her Mercedes that
was blocking the fire hydrant.

She drove a Mercedes?

Yeah, why?

Well, is this her?

Yeah.

Thanks, Gail.

You bet, Sheriff.

Thanks, officer.

Carmela was cheating on
my brother with his protege.

If Al found out,
was he the kind of guy

that would lodge a complaint
against them

with the ethics board?

I don't know, but I certainly
would have.

You mean, so they both
could have viewed Al

as trying to destroy them.

Or either one of them could
have threatened to destroy him.

Well, we gotta talk to 'em.

Both.

Harry, where is my daughter?

Please, can I see her?

Sorry, but visiting hours
are over.

Then charge me with something
and put me in the cell.

Right next to her.

No charges are required.

Come on.

You know, from the standpoint
of a writer,

I just don't know enough about

what's behind the actions
of either Sullivan woman.

Love, or greed
or something else.

But looking into Sinead's eyes,
she seemed afraid.

She certainly has every reason
to be scared for her daughter.

That kid is in big trouble.

Yeah.

And then there's my ex
sister-in-law and her boyfriend.

Which we are going to be talking
to both of them tomorrow.

Yeah, well tomorrow's already
here and I need to head to bed.

Ok.

I'm really grateful
nothing happened

with you tonight, honey.

Yeah, me too.

I love you, sweetheart.

I love you too, Dad.

Same goes for you,
my friend.

Goodnight, Graham.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

Goodnight, sweetie.

We have to find my uncle.

We're doing everything we can.

Which, apparently
includes swimming

halfway across the lake.

Do you expect me to just
sit out there?

Yeah, actually that's exactly

what I expect
from you next time.

You know, there's something
that you didn't know about me.

Hmm?

Is that I was the captain of
the swim team at Garrison High.

Of course you were, Amy.

Of course you were.

You've got an answer
for everything.

I like that.

Not for where my uncle is.

We will find him.

Tell me that again.

We will.

You know what?

What?

I believe you.

All company
transactions have...

all company transactions
have to be approved, Mom.

Then why keep it
a secret?

I'm still...
and this is still my...

No, this is our business.

I don't mean
to keep...

-Hi.
-Hi.

Mr. Winslow.

We shouldn't have this
discussion in front of guests.

All right. We can talk
about this later.

Yeah.

Hey.

Everything ok?

Ah, when you're in business
with somebody,

especially a family member,
you have this assumption that

they'll tell you about things
related to the business.

Olly.

Frank Sullivan is here,
insisting on seeing you.

This ought to be good.

Maybe I should tag along.

Be my guest.

Already am.

So we meet again,
Mr. Winslow.

Olly, can we speak
in private?

If this is what I think
it's about,

I'd prefer to remain
in a public space.

Fine.

Is Sinead here?

Come on. We both know
she stayed here in the past

when she and I
had disagreements.

Frank, I'm sure you can
appreciate my position

regarding guests
and their privacy.

Seriously, Olly?

She's my wife and she hasn't
answered my calls

since she went for
a drive last night.

Are you not concerned about
Janey's whereabouts?

This is none of your business,
pal.

Well, I just, you know,
I think it's funny

that you're worried about
your wife but not your daughter.

My daughter's with friends.

No, Mr. Sullivan.

Your daughter is
in a jail cell.

What?

Is this some kind of joke?

Frank. Let him go.

No joke.

He's telling the truth
about Janey.

She was arrested last night.

For what?

I suggest you take
your hands off me

and address your questions
to the police.

I'm not gonna forget this.

Sorry I'm late.

I was grabbing some java.

Thank you so much, Harry.

Bonnie's Brew, that's
the best coffee in town.

I used to live upstairs.

How could you move away
from Bonnie's?

I know, right.

But I wanted to be walking
distance from school.

Hmm. Smart move.

You're on Belvedere?

Uh, Grandview, in the building
next to Last Drip,

but it's no Bonnie's.

My dad just sent me a text
and apparently Frank Sullivan

just made a big scene over
at Kent Lake House.

He was looking for Sinead.

Anyway, he thinks his daughter
spend the night with a friend.

Not in jail.

My dad said that you should
be expecting a call

from Frank anytime.

Ah, speak of the devil.

He sent me a text,
he wants to meet.

Can you handle
the other situation?

Yeah, we got it.

Hi.

Oh, hello.

You mind company?

Not in the least.

Thanks.

Oh.

I just wish you were here
under better circumstances.

As do I.

It's quite a place you and Olly
have here.

Listen, I just want to say,

if you're upset with him
over us

drafting him into service
last night,

I take full responsibility.

Forgive me, I, I don't know
what you're talking about.

Oh, I saw... I saw the two
of you having a rather

spirited discussion earlier,

and Olly seemed to indicate
that it was...

Oh, no.

That was over what I hired
your brother to do.

The history of
the Lake House?

Yes.

Olly seems to think
it's a frivolous,

narcissistic enterprise.

I knew he wouldn't like it,

which is precisely why I didn't
bother running it by him

for his approval.

Sounds reasonable.

My husband always used to say
that the advantage

of a family business is that
you got to share the profits.

But also, the debits.

It's my dad.

Hey, Dad.

Hey, honey. I just
had a thought.

What if Janey didn't plan
to extort me all by herself.

What if she was in business
with another family member?

Like Frank?

No, I was thinking more like
the person

who was desperate to talk to
her last night.

That's actually a good thought,
Dad.

Thanks, honey.

I'm on my way to the police
station now

to see if Sinead's still there.

I'll let you know
how it goes.

All right, bye.

Bye Graham.

Go Detective Winslow, go.

-Go ahead.
-Thank you.

You two don't give up.

Well, legally I'm not
really allowed to.

I don't understand.

Oh, Travis is a
police detective.

Yeah, that's right,

and I'm working with
Sheriff Ridgeway

to find your ex-husband.

So, your affair with Mark Lyons,
when do you think that ended?

Well, it ended a few months ago.

Right.

Remember, 'cause that's
when she started bringing

all the baked goods to my uncle.

Mm-hm.

Did you do that

because you wanted to get
back together with him?

Ah, but Al didn't want to,
did he?

No.

So he pushed to have
the divorce,

even though that meant
that he would have to pay you

for half the house with money
he didn't have.

Now, do you think he pushed
ahead because he found out

about the affair or because
he found out who it was with?

What do you think?

No.

I told him about that.

Why?

Because I was angry.

I, I took it out on him.

I was really angry with myself.

For being a fool.

Mark didn't love me.

He pretends to be Al's protege

but he is insanely jealous
of him.

When did you tell
Al about Mark?

A week ago.

And that's when he filed the
claim with the ethics board.

I got the notice on Friday.

Can you prove that?

So Mark got this on Friday
as well?

Yes.

He was furious.

I've never seen him so angry.

He said...

What?

"I could kill him."

So, if they didn't get
the ethics board notice

until Friday...

Then neither of them could have
left the note.

Ok, but what if the note and the
kidnapping weren't connected?

Right.

He's not in his office,

do you have the card
that he gave you earlier?

Oh, yeah.

Straight to voicemail.

Of course.

Hi, Mark, it's Amy Winslow,

will you just give me a call
when you get this?

It's important.

Thanks, bye.

You got a little...

Come on.

It's the way we came,
remember?

Sinead!

Sinead.

I'm sorry, I don't have
time to chat.

I need to work on Janey's bail.

Maybe I can help with that.

Sinead!

You should stay away from me.

Come on, we need to talk.

Maybe you should come with me,
where you'll be safe.

You're being ridiculous.

Get in the car.

Mark certainly has a motive
for wanting to silence my uncle.

Oh, I don't know Travis.

Can't help but think about
the irony that the word

"family" and "familiar"
have the same root

and that I just had no clue

about so much of
my uncle's life.

Huh.

That's like what my poppa
always said.

"Nobody knows you
like your family,

"except when they don't."

You called your dad, Poppa?

No, that's actually what I used
to call my grandfather.

Aw.

You guys were close?

You know, how I don't
really like,

talk too much
about my family.

Mm-hm.

Well that...

It's because it's sad.

I was 11 years old.

My mom and dad,

they were driving home
from a dinner party.

It was during a snowstorm
and there was an 18-wheeler

lost control on I-90 and
eight people were killed.

Oh, Travis.

It's all right.

Now, my grandparents,
they were babysitting me.

And when they got
the phone call,

I was playing with
these little toy trucks.

I was making them crash.

And for years, I thought
it was my fault.

So, my grandparents,
in the spot,

they just, right there
on the spot,

said maybe they did
until they passed.

When did they pass?

Uh, Poppa...

He died when I was a sophomore
in college, aneurism.

He was sitting at his desk
at the 18th precinct.

That's why you became
a cop.

Yeah.

It's cliché, right?

No.

Mm-mm.

No, it's sweet and I know that
he would be so proud of you.

And my Gran...

She fought cancer
for five years,

because she promised me
that she was gonna see me

get my detective shield.

She did.

Like I said, it's sad.

Thank you for sharing
that with me.

For trusting me.

Hey, Amy.

I trust you with my life.

Hey, um...

You... should probably get that.

It might be important.

Yeah, yeah.

Hello?

What?

No, no, no, no.

Don't go in.

We'll be right there.

It's Lucy.

Somebody just broke
into her apartment.

She thinks they're still there.

Hey, Lucy, call 911.

We'll be right there.

Ok.

All right, bye.

Phew.

You used to race cars?

Thank you.

I grew up in Ireland.

Mrs. Sullivan.

She's with me and I hope
you'll follow Olly's pledge

to protect the privacy
of his guests,

because someone may be
arriving looking for her.

I understand.

And please, feel free
to use Mr. Kent's office.

He's away on business today.

-Great.
-Thank you.

Hey. Did you call 911?

Yes, right after you told me to.

Has anybody come out of
the building?

No.

I'm going in.

No, Travis.

When the officers get here,

you let them know that I am
inside and that I am armed.

Ok?

Police!

Come out with your hands up!

Tell them Travis and I
are inside, ok?

Travis!

Amy.

So all that's missing are
the Kent Lake House materials

and my spare apartment key.

Why would they have
taken that?

I don't know, but you definitely
need to call a locksmith

as soon as possible.

Hey, when was
the last time

that you were in
your apartment?

Monday.

After Al went missing
I freaked out a bit

and went to stay
with my cousin.

This is the first time I feel
safe enough to come home.

So you said that you
told Mark

about the Kent Lake
House project

when he came over for dinner
the other night?

Yeah.

And what started that topic?

Well, I mean he saw the boxes.

They were right there.

Why, you don't think
that Mark...

What did you discuss
about the papers?

Not much, really.

I mean, I was excited
to be included

and that Al was gonna
compensate me

and how generous Mrs. Kent
was being with the fee, I mean.

And the fee was $25,000.

Yeah, sure, but that was just
for the first quarter.

So, the full fee
was $100,000?

Oh.

And Mark had
some serious debt.

That kind of money
is quite a motive.

Yeah.

Thanks Lucy.

Called him a few times,
he hasn't gotten back to me,

so how do you want to
handle it?

As directly as possible.

I have a doorbell, Detective.

You're not armed, are you?

Are you joking?

You broke into Lucy Harding's
apartment,

you stole the Kent papers now
you have a choice.

You can let us in
and talk to us about it,

or I'm gonna call
Sheriff Ridgeway.

He's gonna show up
with a warrant

and the jurisdiction
to arrest you.

What do you wanna do?

I didn't break in anywhere.

Ok, you know what, that's fine.

I'm gonna call the sheriff.

Please, please.

Come in.

There's been a misunderstanding
because Lucy asked for my help.

Oh, really?

Why else would she give me
her spare key?

I don't know,
maybe you stole her key

now you're using that
as an excuse?

She had me over for dinner
and begged for my help.

I wasn't going to take the boxes
then so she gave me a key.

Yeah, well that's not the story
she tells.

Well then I guess it's her word
against mine.

So you're not trying to steal
this job from Al

so that you can pay off
your massive debt, Mark?

Where is my uncle?

You think I know where Al is?

Well you need him to be out
of the picture

so you could take over
the Kent job.

Feel free to look.

Gladly.

Thank you for being so kind.

Especially after what Janey
put you through.

No, come on.

This is certainly no excuse,

but she thought that
by stealing your money

I'd be able to leave Frank.

I definitely think
you should do that.

I'd start by filing
a restraining order.

You know, I,

I was surprised that you flew
out here at the drop of a hat.

I was under the impression

that you and your brother
weren't close.

Not as close as we should be,
but I'd do anything for him.

Hmm.

Graham, can I trust you?

Of course.

Well, it's the sheriff.

Oh, great.

Why don't we go ask him
about that restraining order?

What is all this stuff?

It's the Kent paperwork,
actually.

Preston Kent was quite
a packrat.

Well, I mean you
didn't organize this

in the last two hours,
obviously.

No, I'm good,
but not that good.

So, when did you get all of
this stuff from Lucy?

It was a couple days ago,
actually.

Well, most of it.

I just came back from collecting
a fresh trove.

Back from Lucy's?

No, the bank.

I found a key to
a safe deposit box

in an envelope
Al had collected.

Did you look
through this yet?

We'll help you.

Lucy had just begun collecting
press clips

and filing a freedom
of information request

for an accident report.

Where's that?

This?

Well it says that Al Winslow
signed it.

Sure, she signed for him.
TA's do that all the time.

Hey, Travis?

Hm?

Take a look at this.

Absolutely.

Let me make a call and we'll
get the paperwork started.

Thanks.

Make you feel safer?

Yes.

Though, to be honest
it's not only my safety

I'm concerned for.

Oh, Janey, I get it.

No.

Some months ago,

I fell in love with someone
quite special.

I kept quiet about my feelings

until he shared that he had
the same feelings for me.

We tried to work out what to do,

and we were so careful
because Frank is who he is.

But somehow, Frank
must have found out.

How do you know?

Before Frank uses force,

he likes to give you subtle
little warnings,

to frighten you.

He did that, in this case.

A message, on a postcard.

You're in love with my brother.

Yes.

How did you...

You've seen the postcard.

But how.

All took it...

Took?

Hang on, hang on.

You know where Alister is?

told you sooner, hould he

but I didn't know who to trust.

Well, you told us now
and that's all that matters.

I'll call as soon as I have
Al safely in hand, all right?

Thanks, Harry.

I'm terribly sorry.

And I appreciate
your understanding.

If I were married
to Frank Sullivan

I think I'd have
trust issues too.

Excuse me.

It's Amy.

Oh.

Hi, honey.

Hey, Dad.

We know where your uncle is.

What?

How?

He and Sinead Sullivan
had fallen in love

and when Frank found out,
he sent the warning.

What warning?

The postcard.

Sinead and Alister panicked.

They were afraid for his life.

She sent him where Frank
would never look.

The family cabin.

Dad, the postcard wasn't
from Frank Sullivan.

Sure it was.

Harry just went to get Alister.

You told Harry?

What is the address for him?

The address?

Dad!

-The address!
-What is the address?

Hello?

Who's there?

Sheriff Ridgeway,
Mr. Winslow.

I've been looking for you,
and those papers.

Right.

I expect you have.

So how much are you gonna
offer me for them?

Money?

Mr. Winslow, not only
do I have a badge,

I also have a gun.

And when they read my
police report it will say

you were unstable, attacked me
and I feared for my life.

Yeah, well that's a bad idea,
Harry.

Yeah, we've been standing over
there for the past 10 minutes.

What do you think you're doing,
Big City?

Well I'm here to arrest you
for conspiracy to commit murder.

I don't know what you all think
is going on here.

What I think, Harry?

I think you covered up a murder.

What?

You came here
for the Kent papers.

You broke into Lucy's apartment.

You shot your gun at me.

I don't know what
you're talking about.

Amy, can you please
tell the sheriff?

Yeah, no problem.

So Lucy's driver's license
lists the old address,

which made sense

because that's why he brought us
those coffees

from Bonnie's Brew.

You're on Belvedere right?

Uh, Grandview.

In the building next
to Last Drip,

but it's no Bonnie's.

Because you needed
Lucy's new address.

So when I told you that Frank
Sullivan was looking for you,

it gave you the perfect excuse
to just slip away.

Ah, speak of the devil.

He sent me a text.

He wants to meet.

Can you handle
the other situation?

Wait, you didn't meet
with Frank, did you?

No, you went to go find
Lucy's new place

and then you broke into it.

You must have been
so surprised

when those Kent papers
weren't there?

You want to know
what's funny, Amy?

What's that?

The Kent papers
aren't here either.

In fact, Al, he doesn't even
know why you want those papers.

He's hiding for a totally
different reason, aren't you Al?

Uh, yeah.

I misread your warning postcard.

Except for it wasn't
your warning, was it, Harry?

That idiot.

Harry, I hope for your sake that
you've got plenty of evidence

on that "idiot's" complicity.

Otherwise, my friend,

you're gonna be hanging
all by yourself.

Olly, they asked us to speak
to them about Al Winslow.

Did Harry find him?

Oh yeah, yeah,
no, we found Al.

Al is in the hospital.

Is he all right?

Ah.

You know, he's been shot.

Oh.

Oh no, that's awful.

It was just a flesh wound,
to the leg,

unfortunately he accidentally
shot himself

when he placed a loaded gun
into his belt.

Ow!

You see, he was preparing
to flee.

See, Al thought that
Frank Sullivan had learned

about his falling in love
with his wife, Sinead.

The reason he thought this

is because somebody left
a note on his office door.

This.

It was this postcard,
right here.

"Stop, or I'll destroy you too."

With a picture of your sister's
lake on the front of it.

Now, what my uncle didn't see
in all of his panic,

he didn't notice the word "too."

Implying that someone else
had already been destroyed.

Right, you know, because
had he thought about that,

he probably would have
realized that Frank Sullivan

didn't write that note.

Mm-mm.

No, someone else wanted him
to stop doing something else.

What?

What Mrs. Kent hired him to do.

Uncover the history
of the Kent Lake House.

Well who would want him
to do that?

Harry Ridgeway.

I don't understand.

How would Harry even know
about this project?

Well, because my uncle's TA,
Lucy Harding,

filed a Freedom of Information
request for the accident report

on the death of your daughter.

That's right, and she filed
that at the sheriff's office,

where we all learned
that that accident report

was filled out by a young
Harry Ridgeway.

Who just happened to be
elected sheriff

that very next year on a
campaign funded largely by you.

Yes, we were impressed by him.

Oh, I'm sure you were.

He was an incredible
investigator.

In fact, he learned that
your sister Meg's death

was not an accident.

What?

Harry took these photos and, uh,
he held onto them as insurance.

I'm so sorry, Mrs. Kent.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Kent.

The cause of death
was not drowning,

it was several blows
to the head,

including one to the face

which left a distinct impression

of a signet ring
from Pi Beta Gamma.

Mom.

Listen, yes, Meg and I
had a fight.

That's why she went out
to the boat,

but I didn't kill her,
come on.

Olly, Harry also had
some other insurance.

"I can make all
this disappear, and rule it
as an accident."

"How much is that
gonna cost me?"

"Well, been thinking
of running for sheriff."

If you have all this,
you have Ridgeway as well?

Oh, yeah, yeah, no he flipped
about an hour ago.

He's so furious that somebody,
you, left a note on the door.

Your sister.

Olly.

Why?

Dad.

He was going to cut me
out of the Lake House,

of my inheritance.

Yeah, he told me.

Said I was his biggest
disappointment.

That he was leaving it all
to Meg which is a joke.

Now, did he say Meg, or
did he say your sister?

Did you know that your dad
had a secret safe deposit box?

And the key, Mrs. Kent,

it's been hidden in your attic
all these years.

This was in it.

Jennifer, will you read this?

"I, Preston Kent,
being of sound mind

"do hereby leave my entire stake
in Kent Lake House

"to my daughter, Jennifer.

"Jennifer Espinoza, my only
child who is worthy of it."

Mr. Kent had been paying
your mother child support

ever since you were born.

He's kept all the check stubs.

Nobody knows you like
your family.

Except when they don't.

So they say I'm lucky
there's no infection.

It turns out that surgeons know
more than history professors

about treating wounds.

Listen, brother.

How would you feel about me
sticking around for a bit?

Just, just until you recover.

I don't want to get
between you and Sinead,

you know, I can stay in my room
in the Lake House.

Ok, Graham, stop, stop.

You'll stay at my place.

For as long as you like.

-Ok.
-Ok!

And you two.

Wow, you, you literally
saved my life.

Correct use of the word
"literally."

Ah, so this is a family
pet peeve.

Yeah, I guess you could say so.

Honestly, I, I don't know
how to thank you.

Well, how about you come
and visit us

after school's out?

Consider it done.

-Hey.
-Hey.

We got him back.

Just like you promised.

You said you believed me
when I said we would.

Mmm.

And well, the irony of that
is you're pretty unbelievable.

Yeah, we'll talk.

I just mean that, you know you
put everything on hold back home

to jump on a plane,
fly across the country

to come and do all this.

I mean you put your life
in danger.

You... you got shot at.

And you did all that
for my family.

And for me.

So, yeah.

I think you're
pretty unbelievable.

Well, it's pretty easy
to believe

when you know my motive.

What is it, this time, huh?

I love you.

What?

I love you.

Hey, partner.

Some night for a murder.

Yeah.

Uh...

Hey, what's Amy doing here?

She's the one
that called it in.

The deceased
is Sam Jameson.

You know who that is, right?

Yeah, I know.

He's Amy's fiancé.
