The lovers again?

Aye.

Third meeting.

I think this time they leave together.

Aye.

I knew it.

It's love.

No.

What happened there?

The lass has been waiting.

She even brought sweeties, too.

Love is a fickle beast.

Bit of cream?

Aye. Thanks, Fiona.

Sorry.

It's no bother, Fiona.

You're fine.

Here.

What's wrong with that one?

Somebody help her!

You, get out the way!

Get out the way!

You!

Look behind you!

Behind you!

Look behind you!

Come on, help her!

Do you think she looks sad?

I'm guessing that's from being dead.

And no one touched her?

No, but I think she did.

So you didn't see what happened?

No, she was just waiting
at one of our tables.

But then she started
stumbling over there.

Was she sad?

I don't know.

Are you... yes.

Just answer the question,
or she'll keep asking.

I don't know if I'd say sad.

She was just waiting for her coffee.

Had she drunk it yet?

No, she was just waiting.

No witnesses, detective.
It was rush hour.

No one was paying attention.

Got to love New York.

I know. It's so pretty today.

What is that?

The Iris.

I think they're taking it down

after Valentine's day.

Right, I read about that.

It's like the portal from last year.

That is so fun.

So it's a window to where?

Some seaside town in Scotland.

Like, 24 hours of streaming.

It's to connect people from a small town

to a big city who
wouldn't meet otherwise.

So we can see them, and they can see...

Excuse me?

Sir, has this always been covered?

No, we covered it when we got here.

It's up again.

Hello.

No sound?

No, just picture.

Hello?

Hello.

I'm Elsbeth.

Angus.

Can I ask you a few questions?

Aye.

Sheep!

Aye, there's loads of 'em.

Stop it!

Are they siblings? My god.

That is so adorable.

It is pretty darn adorable.

Are those the questions
you wanted to ask me?

No.

Sorry... Did you see who did this?

Aye.

I saw a man grab the victim.

And then she fell to the ground.

He tried to take her chocolates.

What chocolates?

Well, she had a box of chocolates.

Like a Valentine.

I think it might be what you would call

a jealous rage.

- Could you describe this man?
- Aye.

But I'm not sure if he's
the man who killed her.

She went back to her
table after they struggled.

Are you with the police?

That's a... long story.

Yes and no.

I'm a consultant.

I... Did they see something?

No, no.

They just come here at 2:30.

Why is that?

Just give it half a tick.

That happens every day?

Twice a day, like clockwork.

But that's not why I'm here.

Writing.

Elsbeth?

So how much longer will you be here?

An hour, maybe.

Okay, I think we're gonna need to take

a statement. What's your full name?

You might need a pen.

No, I have a good memory.

Angus oliphant-donnachaidh.

I'll need a pen.

Okay... Put you on speaker...

Can you spell that, please?

O-I-i-p-h-a-n-t, dash,
d-o-n-n-a-c-h-a-i-d-h.

Wow.

Thank you.

I'll, I'll call you back.

I like your jacket.

Thank you.

It's my favorite color.

Mine, too.

Elsbeth!

Right...

Call you soon, Angus
oliphanta-blucka-blucka.

Haste ye back.

What's going on?

We found her ID badge.

She worked just around the corner.

Who was that?

A witness.

Try this.

Hi.

Ooh.

Hi.

Are all these your perfumes?

Yes. Would you like to sample one?

No, I'm not very good
at choosing perfumes.

Try this one.

Thank you.

Do they make them all here?

In our private laboratory upstairs.

You're in the house of Elle-même.

This is a very small bottle.

Yes. Handy in your purse.

Yum. I know you're not supposed

to spray directly onto the body,

you're supposed to make a little cloud,

and then walk into it.

My gosh.

Wow.

Here's a tissue.

Okay.

Gosh.

May I help you?

We're here regarding Hayley ritter.

Well, I'm head of security.

Is, Hayley in some kind of trouble?

We have some bad news.

Well, come on up.

I can't believe it.

We just deactivated
her keycard this morning.

Was she fired?

No, no.

No, she failed her drug test,

and that's the policy.

God, it's so awful.

Elsbeth, in here.

Sorry. Sorry.

So, the company was concerned...

With Hayley's drug use?

Well, everyone in
research and development

is subject to random drug tests.

If you fail, credentials
are immediately revoked.

Never thought that
would happen with her.

You know, I gave Hayley
her first Elle-même ID badge

as a college intern.

Have you noticed any recent changes

to her behavior?

No...

Had to read the results
three times to believe it.

She's been sober for years.

When did you say she failed?

Test was given on Friday,

results came back over the weekend.

Could we get a copy of those results?

You know, I'll do you one better.

I'll send over her employee file.

So the adrenal glands
have a normal configuration,

with the cortices well demarcated

from the underlying medullae...
so it's a drug overdose?

Yeah, as far as we can determine.

Fentanyl.

Good. Thank you.

But you could've just sent us the results.

It's more effective in person.

And I was in the neighborhood,

and I thought that I could just swing by

well, this feels like a
clean transfer to narcotics.

Yes, captain... Elsbeth.

Not to throw a flag on the play, but

what's wrong with your eye?

I walked into a cloud.

Angus says he saw Hayley

have a jealous confrontation with a man

who, grabbed her by the arm.

Who's Angus?

Our witness in Scotland.

We have a witness in Scotland?

Yeah, it's from the Iris,

it's this art installation in the park.

It has a 24-hour stream
between New York

and this small town in Scotland.

From what I can tell, the town
has more sheep than people.

It's so cute.

They do, yeah. Yeah. It's a tiny little

I keep thinking this will
make sense the more I listen.

How is he our only witness?

Captain, as excited as I get
by these elsbethian detours,

at a certain point a drug
overdose is a drug overdose.

When will you have
the full toxicology report?

Tomorrow.

Good. So, tomorrow,
let's do a full witness report

on this man in, Scotland,

and then we'll just drop
this in the lap of narcotics.

Out.

You might want to go

a little lighter on that perfume.

Agreed.

So, how are things with the unit?

Everything working okay? Yeah.

It's-it's really nice.
The shower has, like,

the best water pressure in New York.

Right? My contractor
understood the assignment.Yeah.

There's a wall, Elsbeth.

Got it. Got it.

Actually, go on without me,

I think I'm gonna grab my coat.

And my bags.

'Kay, see y'all. Whoa.

Gosh. I'm so sorry.

Wow. So sorry. Whoa.

Whoa, whoa.

Everything okay, captain?

Of course things would
have to pick up around here

right before Valentine's day.

You're a fan of Valentine's day?

February 14th is my
wedding anniversary.

That's so romantic.

In our 20s we thought it would be.

But it's like being born on Christmas.

February 14th doesn't feel like our day.

The traffic, the overpriced flowers.

You can't even get a
damn reservation anywhere.

Well, maybe you could
cook her a special meal.

After the year that Claudia
and I have gone through, no.

Nah, I'm leaning all the way in.

The price-inflatedroses, the fancy date.

And then my big surprise.

You know the one.

I do. Do you think you're ready?

No.

I-I... but I got to do it sometime.

May I just say,

this romantic side of you is unexpected.

And wonderful.

Speaking of unexpected

did you hear they reopened
the mertens murder case?

Yeah. Captain kershaw.

Wait a minute. Did you make a call?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

I simply had a drink with a friend.

Understood.

Captain.

Thank you, sir.

Thanks for doing this.

It's a pleasure.

No one embraces
procrastination better than a writer.

So, you said you thought
this was a jealous rage. Why?

Well, this young lass, Hayley,

she'd been meeting romantically
for coffee at that place there.

With the man who she struggled with?

No, no, another man.

I think it was a tinder date.

Why do you say that?

Well, they didn't seem
to know each other

the first time they met.

And the chocolates were for him?

Aye. She waited, but he never arrived.

Now, if I got a sketch artist here,

would you be able to describe him?

Aye.

You know, that scarf
goes well with your jacket.

This? It's nothing.

I just, it's from the garbage.

I don't know why I said that.

So, what do you write, Angus?

Songs.

Really?

Not good ones. They're too hard.

Bad music is so much easier.

That's so exciting.

I love people who write music.

I love people who love
people who write music.

Well, I love people who love...

So you just sit there and get inspired?

Well, New York... It inspires me.

Me, too. Have you ever been here?

No. But in my songs, I go.

Someone's calling in.

Hello?

I'll be right there.

Angus?

Hayley had an emergency contact

in the employee file, her boyfriend.

I've been trying to call her,
but she wasn't picking up.

I-I can't believe this is happening.

How long had you been together?

Two and a half years.

They didn't mention
you at Ms. Ritter's work.

Hayley was a private person.

And we've been in
counseling for a little while.

But she loved me, I know she did.

My god.

I don't understand. What kind of drugs?

Fentanyl.

That makes no sense.

Why do you say that?

I was with her through rehab.

I saw her get clean.

I know what a relapse
looks like on Hayley.

She was sober.

Did you follow Hayley today?

Follow her? No. Where?

Were you jealous of her
meeting with another man?

What are you talking about?

Elsbeth.

Did you see Hayley

meeting with another man by the Iris?

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

Things were good.

We were planning to have
kids. We were doing ivf.

I think that's enough.

Thank you, sir.

We'll contact you with
any other questions.

Maybe you can help us
with just one more thing.

What?

Not here. Where Hayley died.

Yes.

It'll only take a second.

Good job, yeah.Aye. See you tomorrow.

You ready for me?

"Aye."

Mr. Jeffries?

I-I just... could you
just stand right here?

Why? What am I doing here?

I just need you to see something.

Hey. Look over there.

Aye. That's the man who fought with her.

I didn't do it. It wasn't me.

We have an eyewitness who saw you

fighting with your girlfriend, Charles.

Are you saying that wasn't you?

I was mad,

and I tried to keep
her from walking away.

She was acting so weird.

It was like she was
trying to make me jealous.

Your Scottish witness ID'd him?

Yes, but it's not myscottish witness.

He's just a witness.

It's not an accusation, Elsbeth.

It's not what it looked like.

How was she making you jealous?

I just discovered she
was cheating on me.

Of course I was pissed.

Who was cheating with?

I-I don't know.

But Hayley had stopped
sharing location services with me,

and she wouldn't tell me why and then

when I looked through her phone,

I found an encrypted messaging app.

Doesn't mean she was cheating.

Just means you're controlling.

Did you follow her?

So you were lying, before.

I was afraid for her.

That's why I was following her.

She was talking about
someone who wanted to kill her.

Right.

You have to look for this
guy who she was meeting.

He's the one she was afraid of.

You need to find him!

So what do you think?

Drug overdose with contributing factors.

Think we can make a case
implicating the boyfriend?

Sure, he fought with her,

fentanyl constricts blood to the brain,

a sudden jolt like that could
lead to internal bleeding.

Sounds like involuntary
manslaughter to me.

What about the other
man she was meeting?

Officer blanke.

I think we need to locate him either way.

I agree.

Take Ms. Tascioni with you tomorrow

and see what you can dig up about him.

Was she afraid of him? Let's go.

Are you nervous about the big surprise?

I wasn't, until you mentioned that.

How's that?

His forehead's a bit higher.

Thank you for doing this, sir.

Doing nothing else today.

Is that a different coat?

I felt inspired.

It's another good color.

We get a wee bit drab over here.

That can't be.

Well, we'll get this circulated right away.

Not done yet.

You're done. Let's go.

Well, I guess I'll let you,
get back to your composing.

God, no. Anything but that.

I heard one of your songs last night.

You did? Where?

Spotify.

You just made me two cents.

I'll treat meself to dinner.

And you have a band?

A small one.

All from your, village?

No, no.

The gang's in Edinburgh.

We record over zoom.

Really?

That sounds very technical.

Well, I hook up the
oxen to the power grid.

How about you?

Are you a native new yorker?

No, no. Although, I feel like I am.

I can't believe you've never been here.

No, but I will someday.

Well, I guess I'd better...

Aye. Go solve your murder.

Okay.

Whoa.

Bye.

Remember us from yesterday?

Yes, that was awful.

Have you seen this man?

He sometimes comes here
to work on his computer?

George. Six pumps of caramel.

He's here every morning.

Lavender manuka honey oat latte!

For Taylor!

Do you remember his
last name? George...

No, but he might.

He's looking for him, too.

I don't know where he is.

George can be a bit of a
space cadet when he's working.

But he's never just disappeared
without a word like this.

I'm worried.

How long have you been together?

Exclusively? A year. Why?

There's no reason
George would be meeting

romantically with a woman, is there?

Maybe if it was Nicole
Kidman. But that's about it.

When was the last time
you heard from George?

Two days ago. He rushed
off the phone with me

to go meet a source.

Do you know the source's name? No.

Do you know what he was writing about?

No, no. I don't find
out until he publishes.

George is intense about

"journalistic integrity," confidentiality.

His datebook is in code,

and he only communicates

with sources through
encrypted messaging apps.

Sorry...

Hello?

I sent around that sketch you sent.

We found him.

That was fast. Where?

The morgue.

His body was found hidden in a park

a few blocks from his residence.

We're waiting on full toxicology,

but it's looking like a
fentanyl overdose, too.

So, where is your thinking on this?

We talked to Mr. Singh's editor.

He said he was working on an exposé,

thought he'd have
something in a few days.

He was waiting on one last piece.

And Hayley, are we
connecting the two overdoses?

That's the logical theory. We
never found the chocolates.

What is that, a metaphor?

According to Angus, Hayley
had a box of chocolates

after the altercation with Charles,

and before she died.

So, who took them?

This is New York. Who didn't take them?

Why is everyone from New
York so down on New York?

So other people don't move here.

Well, that's not very welcoming.

Elsbeth. Chocolates.Right.

What if Hayley was a whistleblower

and that's the way she
was getting evidence

to George for her exposé?

Joy. Another tascioni leap.

Wait, so you think someone
killed her to stop her

from delivering damning evidence?

Yes, possibly in a box of chocolates.

Or Hayley's boyfriend, who didn't realize

George was gay, killed
him because he was jealous.

That's possible, too. Thank you.

Just not very likely.Okay.

Question the boyfriend.
Update me in an hour.

We have two corpses,
let's get this going.

Are the nerves making you grouchy?

Go!

Hello?

Hello.

I was seeing if the sketch helped.

Perfectly. I mean, we found him dead,

so that wasn't good,
but it helped us find him.

Crivvens.

Well, what now?

Well, we're working on it.

So if you can remember
anything, that would be great.

What's crivvens?

It's basically "crap."

Yes. Crivvens.

Hey, look. I'll call you back, okay?

Okay, bye

crivvens. Criv... hey, Fiona.

You remember yesterday

when you spilled
cream all over my book?

Would you like me to apologize again?

No. I was turned away from that screen

for about ten seconds.

Were the boys out
there for their stripper?

Nae. Well, who else was out there

that could have seen?

The Murrays.

The sisters.- where are they?

No, 1760.

That's when David hume wrote the...

It's not the human enlightenment.

It's the Scottish enlightenment.

You have to look at the date.

They don't line up.

I had nothing to do with this, either.

Have you ever been to
Mr. Singh's residence? No.

I-I-I only saw him once with Hayley.

The medical examiner
places the time of death

as Saturday in the
morning. Where were you?

I was... I... wait.

I was with Hayley. We-we
had couples therapy.

I wanted to make it work, but she didn't,

and then she got bloodwork done

for our ivf. You see how she
was sending me mixed signals?

But I... it proves I
couldn't have been there.

Can anyone attest to this?

They probably could
at the fertility clinic.

We need that bloodwork.

Can you get us that bloodwork?

Okay, the ivf panel tests
for fertility, diseases and...

Substances.yeah.

Look, she tested negative for everything.

Look at the dates.

The Elle-même drug
test was Friday afternoon.

And the ivf panel was Saturday morning.

If she was using opioids,

why weren't they still in
her system 12 hours later?

Elle-même faked the drug results.

Something bad was
coming out of that lab.

Hayley was a whistleblower,
and they killed her for it.

We need to get George's editor,

see if he knows anything
about what George was writing.

Angus?

I better get this.

Just remember, he's a musician, so.

I have to give you the context.

I'll tell it. I'm the one who saw him. He

I saw it as well as you.

He went right up to her and he sneezed

in her face.

He didn't sneeze, he coughed.

He wore one of those surgical masks.

No, he did not. Stop
your telling of stories.

Wait. I'm sorry.

Are you saying there was another man?

I didn't see everything. It was fast.

When Hayley went down, I...

Are you telling this story, or are we?

You. So, shut up. The
scoundrel lowered his mask

and coughed in her face!

Sneezed in her face.

How can you go on like that?

The screen is silent.

And-and... Then what? What happened?

We're trying to tell you if
you'd stop your interrupting.

He...

He lifted the box of
chocolates right off her.

Can you tell me what he looked like?

Not the face. He had that mask.

And-and he wore that scarf.

Murray of atholl tartan.

Are you blind?

MacKenzie tartan!

Nah, robertson hunting tartan, yeah?

Are you even Scottish?

Murray of atholl.

Well, that's it.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

It's just... My-my battery is about to die.

All these international calls.

So, he had on a patterned scarf?

Who is this woman?

I'm taking you off speaker.

I dinna Ken who she is.

I'm sorry about that.

We take our tartans seriously.

Tell them I'm sorry.

Can you keep them around?

I'll need to get statements later.

Certainly.

Be safe, Elsbeth.

Thanks, Angus.

She apologizes.

And she thanks you.

There, there, there!

That's him!

MacKenzie tartan.

I told you. No, no, no.

Murray of atholl!

Completely blind. Completely.

Look at it.

Hi.

You've reached the
voicemail of Elsbeth tascioni.

It's spelled like it sounds.

May I help you?

Hi again.

Yes.

I was wondering...

Could I get another
one of those samples?

It is very small.

Yes, very convenient.

Fashionable bags are usually tiny.

Is it reusable?

I mean, if I want, could
I pour out the perfume,

and then put anything I want in?

Do you not like the scent?

No, no. I just probably

used too much of it last time.

Came out like a firehose.

Ms. Tascioni? Yes.

May I help you? Yes. Hi.

Mister... I-I forgot your name.

Thorwald. "Thorn walls."

I was just admiring

how small these little spray bottles are.

Atomizers. Yes, right, atomizers.

Very small. Did you need something?

I do.

How is your, narcotics
investigation going?

Well.

Good. You know, I used
to be an officer in Denver.

I know how difficult it can be.

You used to be a detective?

No. A patrol officer.

Okay.

So, here's my issue.

This is...

A copy of Hayley's
employee file that you gave us.

Thank you for that, by the way. Yeah.

And we just want to
double-check the date there

for the drug test.

It's a little hard to read. See?

So we just want to
confirm that it's correct.

Yeah. Yeah, let me bring you

the original file. Do you mind waiting?

No. Thank you.

Everything all right?

Yes. My... yes.

I was just on the phone
with, captain Wagner.

Yes, captain.

I am in the office of Howard thornberger.

Thorwald.thorn... wald,
and, he was just giving me

the original drug test report.

Yes, and, I'm coming right back to you,

so you know my where...

Abouts. Actually, captain,

maybe you should
head over here right now

in case I have a problem with, the...

Yeah, that's dead.

There are a lot of
people who know I'm here.

It is not gonna look very real

if you spray us all with fentanyl.

That's a lot of overdoses.

Some people just disappear.

We are a cosmetics company.

We know how to cover
up anything unsightly.

So this was all to cover
up for the company?

What, was there something
carcinogenic in those cosmetics?

Because that perfume
really stung my eye.

It's the concealer that's the problem.

At least according to Hayley,
but she's not here anymore.

So, she was right. People
were trying to kill her.

There were company secrets
inside that box of chocolates.

On a thumb drive hidden
among the caramels,

which were delicious.

Why don't you sit down, Ms. Tascioni?

Captain Wagner is on his way.

Yes, because you magically
called him from your dead phone.

Help! Shh, shh, shh.

No, help! Help! Help! Shh, shh. Be quiet.

Shh.

Help! Calm down.

I'm in a meeting!

Yes, with someone he intends to kill.

We're-we're just joking in here.

Mr. Thorwald. You're under arrest

for the murder of Hayley
ritter and George Singh.

You have the right to remain silent.

It wasn't me. The CEOs paid me to do it.

Well, good.

Well, you might want to try

lightening your sentence
by turning on them.

How did you guys know?

Angus in Scotland. He
called the switchboard.

My god.

That is so moving.

This whole thing is
so moving. Group hug.

No, no. No group hugs.

Yes, yes, just not you.

Your call has been forwarded

to an automated voice message system.

Like I said, musicians.

Keeps going straight to voicemail.

I did check his Spotify site, though.

He's got these concerts
coming up in Edinburgh.

He just left.

He's gonna be gone for a long time.

Well, I'm sure he'll call tonight.

It is Valentine's day.

Why do I even care?

He's 3,000 miles away.

I mean, how does that even work?

What about you?
What are you gonna do?

Are you gonna do something
fun for Valentine's day?

Nah.

I'm too busy for all that.

Hey. Hey.

There's a cupcake for
you there, by the way.

My coworkers brought
some Valentine's treats,

and you're a sugar fiend, so...

Wh... what makes you say that?

Wait, you're being for real?

No, I mean, you and
Elsbeth have froyo night,

like, every night.

Well, I appreciate the gesture

your moderate shade notwithstanding,

but a morgue cupcake...
Is very much not the vibe.

Yeah, I didn't think about maybe
the-the bacterial presence...

You want to get some ice
cream from the bodega with me?

Are you suggesting we
do something together

on February 14th?

We... also need dish soap.

Yes.

Who's ready to dance?

Is this really happening?

It is happening.

Dance lessons for Christmas
was technically Elsbeth's idea.

But I took an extra month to prepare.

All right, now. Elbow up. Elbow up.

What do you mean, prepare?

Okay.

This is not the same man

who danced the first
dance at our wedding.

Your husband, for the last five weeks,

has had the footwork of a baby giraffe.

All right. That's good.

You've been secretly
taking lessons for five weeks?

So I become the dance
partner you deserve.

Happy anniversary, baby.

And happy Valentine's day.

It's kind of sad.

It is.

It's coming down tomorrow.

Hello.

You came here?

You didn't need to come here.

You're right, I didn't.Wait.

Stop, stop.

You needed to come here.

I thought so.

Happy Valentine's day, Elsbeth.

You too, Angus.

But wait, what about your
concerts in Edinburgh?

I told them to play without me.

Besides, that's not how I make my living.

It isn't? Well what are
you besides a musician?

I'm a fireman.

Get a room.
