LUCAS? IT COULDN'T BE... THAT'S WHAT I THOUGH AT FIRST. WELL, IF THIS IS REALLY EDGAR ALLAN POE, WELL, THIS IS WORTH... GOSH, I DON'T KNOW... LIKE, A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS? OH, WELL, NO, MORE LIKE FIFTY, BUT THE RARITY OF A DAGUERREOTYPE... CUT. WAS THAT OKAY, MS. EPHRON? DID I MESS UP? YOU WERE GREAT. YOU BOTH WERE, BUT JENN... WE NEED THIS PORTRAIT EVALUATED AT A BIGGER NUMBER, LIKE THE HUNDRED THOUSAND WE TALKED ABOUT. YES, BUT EVEN IF THIS PIECE WERE REAL, IT WOULD ONLY BE WORTH BETWEEN 30 AND 50. YOU KNOW, DOESN'T HAVE TO BE REAL. THIS IS TV. I'M JUST NOT SURE I'M COMFORTABLE LYING ABOUT A LIE. IT'S NOT A LIE. IT'S A STORY. WE'RE TELLING A STORY. BUT ISN'T THIS REALITY TV? OKAY, JUST... THINK OF IT AS ENABLING THE PLOT. I MEAN, ONLY IF YOU'RE COMFORTABLE WITH THAT. I DON'T WANT YOU TO NOT ACT NATURAL... THANK YOU. BUT... BU A HUNDRED THOUSAND? THAT'S A LO MORE EXCITING. ONLY HALF OF WHAT I'M GOING TO OWE THE BANK IF THIS DOESN'T GET PICKED UP. THE PILOT EPISODE REALLY NEEDS AS MUCH EXCITEMEN AS WE CAN PACK IN. OKAY? WHY DID I LET YOU TALK ME INTO THIS AGAIN? MM, 'CAUSE I LOVE REALITY TV, AND YOU LOVE ME? I DO. AND THE EXTRA MONEY WILL BE GOOD FOR RENOVATIONS FOR THE STORE. -OKAY... OKAY. -OKAY. LET'S GO AGAIN. YOU'RE GREAT. THINK BIG! GOTCHA. BIG. ROLL SOUND. SOUND SPEED. AND ACTION. IT COULDN'T BE... THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT AT FIRST. IF THIS IS A REAL EDGAR ALLAN POE, WELL, THEN... I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW MUCH THIS IS WORTH... LIKE, A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS? MAYBE, YEAH... BUT THE RARITY OF A DAGUERREOTYPE IN THIS CONDITION... WELL, THAT IS... PRICELESS. IT'S PRICELESS. HEY. HEY! THANKS FOR THE PICK-UP. YEAH, NO PROBLEM. OKAY, MAYBE A SLIGHT PROBLEM. WHO DRIVES STANDARD ANYMORE? OH, COME ON, THIS CAR'S A CLASSIC. DOESN'T HELP THA IT'S DAD'S BABY. JUST GIVE I A LITTLE MORE GAS AND LIFT OFF THE CLUTCH A BIT EASIER. YOU GOT THIS. CLASSIC. STOP ANDRONOCORP! GET INVOLVED! WEBSITE'S ON THE FLYER. GET INVOLVED! OKAY, LET'S MOVE IT OVER HERE. OH, HI. WELCOME TO RAGS TO RICHES. CAN WE HELP YOU? HI, YES, I'M HOPING THAT YOU CAN. THIS BELONGED TO MY MOTHER IN-LAW. I'M WONDERING IF YOU MIGHT KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT IT? OH, IT'S BEAUTIFUL. OH, THIS IS, UH... THIS IS PRETTY LOCKED UP, HUH? I COULDN'T FIGURE OU HOW TO OPEN IT. JENN? UM, MAYBE TALK ABOUT THE BOX... ITS ORIGIN, ITS HISTORY. MA'AM, WOULD YOU MIND IF WE FILMED THIS? I'D REALLY RATHER NOT, ACTUALLY. THANK YOU... BUT ANY EXTRA INFO WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL. LET'S JUST CUT. OKAY, UH, WELL, THIS IS A PUZZLE BOX, AS YOU PROBABLY KNOW. IT'S ORIGINALLY FROM 2ND OR 3RD CENTURY GREEK MECHANICAL PUZZLES. MM-HMM, THE SAME CULTURE THAT BROUGHT YOU THE PANDORA'S BOX MYTH. RIGHT, AND IN FACT, SOME OF THE FIRS COMBINATION LOCKS WERE PUZZLES. VAULTS, TOO, YEAH. SO THERE COULD BE SOMETHING VALUABLE INSIDE? WELL, THERE COULD BE. THESE WERE NOVELTY GIFTS IN 19TH-CENTURY ENGLAND, AND PEOPLE DID STORE THINGS IN THEM, BUT THIS ONE LOOKS FAIRLY NEW, ALTHOUGH THE WORK IS VERY INTRICATE. WERE YOU INTERESTED IN SELLING IT? WELL, IT BELONGED TO MY MOTHER-IN-LAW, ELIZABETH, WHO PASSED AWAY RECENTLY. I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THERE WASN'T ANYTHING INSIDE BEFORE I DECIDE TO SELL IT. I THINK WE CAN HELP YOU WITH THAT. I'D ALSO READ THAT, SOMETIMES, THERE ARE TRIGGERS IN THESE THAT WILL SMASH WHATEVER'S INSIDE IF YOU TRY TO BREAK I INSTEAD OF SOLVING IT? YES, THAT'S TRUE. SO, DO YOU THINK YOU CAN GET IT OPEN? WELL, IT USUALLY TAKES ONE OR TWO CIPHERS TO UNLOCK THESE, BUT THE SYMBOLS ON HERE LOOK LIKE THEY'RE FROM DIFFERENT CULTURES, ALMOST LIKE YOU'D NEED A TRANSLATOR. GIVE ME A FEW DAYS TO DO SOME RESEARCH. THE SOONER THE BETTER, MISS... OH, JENN, I'M JENN, AND THIS IS MY PARTNER, DANI, AND YOU ARE? TAMARA ANDRONICUS. ANDRONICUS, LIKE THE REAL-ESTATE DEVELOPERS? YES. YOUR MOTHER-IN-LAW IS ELIZABETH ANDRONICUS? WAS. YOU KNEW HER? NO, NO. I'M SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT HER PASSING. I READ SHE HAD TWO SONS? HOW ARE THEY DOING? WELL, LUCAS IS STRUGGLING, OF COURSE. WE DON'T REALLY HEAR FROM QUIN ANYMORE. DO YOU HAVE A PEN SO I COULD WRITE DOWN MY NUMBER? SURE, OF COURSE. THANK YOU. WELL, I SHOULD GET GOING. IF THERE IS ANYTHING PERSONAL IN THIS BOX, DISCRETION IS VERY IMPORTANT. MAYBE BEFORE YOU OPEN THE FINAL CIPHER, YOU COULD BRING IT BY THE HOUSE AND SHOW ME HOW TO OPEN IT? ABSOLUTELY. WE CAN DO THAT. GREAT. IF YOU NEED ANYTHING AT ALL FROM ME, JUST LET ME KNOW. SAME. NICE TO MEET YOU, TAMARA. THANK YOU, AND I GUESS... GOOD LUCK. LUCK'S WHAT WE'RE GOING TO NEED. EXCUSE ME. EXCUSE ME, MRS. ANDRONICUS. I'M JOEL JACOBS. I'M THE PRODUCER. WE'VE MET, RIGHT? YES, YES, WE HAVE. I USED TO PLAY POKER WITH LUCAS. IS THERE ANY WAY THAT I COULD PERSUADE YOU TO BE ON CAMERA? I MEAN, IT WOULD REALLY HELP ME OUT. LOOK... I DO REMEMBER THOSE LATE NIGHTS, BUT I'M SORRY. I'M JUST NOT A CAMERA PERSON. IT WAS GOOD TO SEE YOU, THOUGH. YEAH, YOU TOO. IT DOES LOOK... OOH. HEY, SWEETHEART. OH, NO. IS EVERYONE OKAY? DO YOU WANT ME TO MEET YOU THERE OR AT HOME? NO, FINE. I'M ON MY WAY. WELL, THIS MAIL BOX HAS SEEN BETTER DAYS... BUT IT COULD'VE BEEN WORSE. CAN YOU GET THIS CAR HOME? MY DAD'S ON HIS WAY. THAT'S NEVER FUN... AND WHERE DO I KNOW YOU FROM? IT'S BEEN BUGGING ME. OH, WAIT, UM... CRIM-PSYCH AT U.M. YOU SAT AT THE FRONT, RIGHT? I TOOK THAT CLASS FRESHMAN YEAR. I KNEW IT. I DID SOME PREREQS THERE BEFORE ENTERING THE ACADEMY. YOU OBVIOUSLY GRADUATED. I DID. YOU? I'M WORKING ON MY MASTER'S. IMPRESSIVE. YOU'RE BOTH OKAY? I, UH... I MESSED UP WITH THE REVERSE. I'M TOTALLY SORRY. CARS CAN BE REPLACED. FAMILY CAN'T. DAD, YOU'RE GRIPPING A LITTLE TIGHT. I'M SORRY. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING. SO WHAT DO WE DO NOW? WELL, FIX THE CAR AND THE MAILBOX, BUT LIKE I WAS TELLING YOUR SON, IT COULD'VE BEEN WORSE. I DID THE SAME THING TO MY PARENT'S CAR WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE. RITE OF PASSAGE, I GUESS, BUT JUST BE MORE CAREFUL, PLEASE? I WILL. HERE'S MY CARD. DRIVE SAFE. EXCUSE ME. I JUST HAD HER PAINTED. DAD, ARE YOU TEARING UP? NO, JUST... SOMETHING IN THE WIND. YES, I UNDERSTAND. THANK YOU. SO OUR DEDUCTIBLE IS $300, AND OUR INSURANCE PREMIUMS ARE DEFINITELY GOING UP. WE'LL COVER THE COS FOR NOW, BUT... I'LL PAY THE DEDUCTIBLE AND WHATEVER THE DIFFERENCE IS ON YOUR PREMIUMS. WELL, WITH THE MAILBOX, WE'RE LOOKING AT ABOUT $1,800. I CAN HANDLE THAT. HOW? HOW MUCH DOES A KIDNEY GO FOR? FUNNY. I'LL JUST GET A JOB OR SOMETHING. I'LL FIGURE IT OUT. WE KNOW YOU WILL. AND LOGAN, ACCIDENTS HAPPEN. WE'RE JUST GLAD YOU'RE OKAY. OFFICER RYAN. HI. IT'S HANNAH, FROM THE CAR-SLASH-CRIM-CLASS INCIDENT. OH! UH, OF COURSE. HOW ARE YOU? GREAT. YOU KNOW, LOGAN'S GOING TO RAISE SOME CASH TO FIX EVERYTHING, AND, WELL, I JUST WANTED TO SAY THANKS FOR BEING COOL ABOUT IT ALL. WELL, THANK YOU. I DON'T USUALLY GET THESE QUALITY CARE FOLLOW-UP CALLS, SO THIS IS A FIRST. SO... YOU KNOW, I NEVER DO THIS... YOU WOULD BE SURPRISED HOW OFTEN I HEAR THAT. YOU GET ASKED OUT A LOT? WHAT? NO, WITH MY JOB... BUT YOU'RE ASKING ME OUT? WELL, MAYBE A COFFEE OR SOMETHING SOMETIME? I COULD DO THAT. I'LL KNOW MORE ABOUT MY SCHEDULE LATER TODAY. I COULD TALK TO YOU TOMORROW? ABSOLUTELY, OFFICER... OR...? BRETT IS FINE... OR OFFICER, WHATEVER YOU LIKE. TALK TO YOU SOON, BRETT. OKAY, BYE. BYE. HOW GOES? IT'S A BEAUTIFUL MYSTERY. JUST LIKE YOU. AW. WHATCHA GOT HERE, PUZZLE CHEAT SHEETS? OH, YES. I WAS LOOKING FOR POINTERS AND TRYING TO FIGURE OU WHAT THESE SYMBOLS MEAN. THERE'S A LO OF HISTORY IN THEM. CAN'T BE THAT HARD. I'M OUT. WELL, THEY SAY THESE ARE COMPLEX IN THEIR SIMPLICITY. IF YOU SAY, "LIKE ME," THAT THING'S GOING OUT THE WINDOW. TRY NOT TO STAY UP TOO LATE, SWEETIE. ME? NEVER. MM. GOOD NIGHT. GOOD NIGHT. ONE MORE TIME. YES, WE JUST GO A LOVELY SET IN, ACTUALLY. IT'S OVER THERE IN THE CREDENZA. GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE. MORNING, HON'. HEY, DANI. JENN, GOOD MORNING. HEY, WOULD YOU MIND IF I PUT THIS BOX SOMEWHERE ELSE? IT'S JUST... IT'S IN OUR SHOT. OH, NO, I DON' MIND AT ALL. WHAT'RE YOU READING, DANI? NOTES ON THE PUZZLE BOX. THEY WANT TO CENTER THE EPISODE AROUND IT. OH... JOEL? TAMARA DIDN'T EVEN WANT TO BE ON CAMERA. I DON'T FEEL RIGH ABOUT EXPLOITING THE FAMILY NAME. MAYBE THERE'S ANOTHER ANTIQUE WE COULD FOCUS ON? WE DEFINITELY WON'T BE USING THE FAMILY NAME. I PUT IN A CALL INTO LUCAS. HE OWES ME A FAVOR FROM WAY BACK, AND I WAS ABLE TO GE THE BOX ITSELF CLEARED. HOW DO YOU KNOW LUCAS? OLD POKER BUDDY, BUT THAT'S A REALLY LONG STORY. OKAY, WE READY? YES. YES. YOU LOOK NICE. YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL. HEY, LADIES, HOW WE DOING WITH THAT SCRIPT? I KNOW ALL MY LINES. OKAY, HOW ABOUT YOU? I DON'T KNOW ALL MY LINES. THAT'S OKAY, BUT JUST TRY TO HI THOSE BASIC BEATS. OKAY. I KNOW ALL HER LINES. PERFECT. JUMP IN WHEN YOU CAN. SHE KNOWS ALL MY LINES? SHE'S GOT YOUR BACK. OKAY, BUT JUST KEEP THE ENERGY UP RIGHT HERE. THAT'S WHERE THE MAGIC HAPPENS. OKAY. SO ENERGY HERE. SO, HOW'S EVERYONE FEELING, GOOD? GOOD, YEAH. OKAY, GO GET 'EM. LAVENDER IS A GOOD COLOR ON YOU. OH, THANK YOU. CAMERAS UP! SOUND SPEED. AND ACTION. JENN, I WAS LOOKING ONLINE, AND IT SEEMS SOME OF THESE PUZZLE BOXES CAN BE SOLVED IN BETWEEN 7 TO 78 MOVES, BUT MAYBE WE SHOULD SPEAK TO SOMEONE WHO SPECIALIZES IN THEM. SO I FOUND AN EXPER IN CASTLE ROCK, AND SHE'S INTERESTED IN SEEING IT. OH, WELL, YOU KNOW ME, DANI. I LOVE A GOOD CHALLENGE... BUT AN EXPER IS A VERY GOOD IDEA. I THINK WE SHOULD GO SEE AN EXPERT. I'LL GE THE PUZZLE BOX. WHERE IS THE PUZZLE BOX? IT WAS RIGHT THERE. CUT. IT'S... IT'S REALLY GONE. WHAT DO YOU MEAN? I PUT IT RIGHT THERE, RIGHT BESIDE THE STATUE OF THE MALTESE FALCON. WELL, IT'S NO HERE NOW. ALL RIGHT, DID ANYONE MOVE THE BOX? MAYBE WE CAN CHECK THE FOOTAGE? YEAH, REWIND THAT FOR ME. AH, YOU KNOW WHAT? THERE WERE A COUPLE OF CUSTOMERS IN HERE EARLIER. NO, NO, WE DON'T HAVE A LOT OF THEFT AROUND HERE. NOTHING ON THE FOOTAGE. UH, YOU KNOW WHAT-- IT'S GOT TO BE HERE SOMEWHERE, SO WE'RE JUST GOING TO... WE'RE GOING TO SPREAD OU AND LOOK, AND WE'RE GOING TO FIND THE BOX. I'M SURE THE BOX WILL TURN UP SOMEWHERE. I FEEL AWFUL. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO TELL TAMARA? THAT WE'LL PAY HER WHAT THE BOX IS WORTH. DO YOU WANT ME TO GO WITH YOU? NO, I'LL BE FINE. YOU GO HOME. OKAY. CALL ME IF YOU NEED ME. WILL DO. OKAY, FINE, YOU WILL GET YOUR MONEY. ALL RIGHT. BYE. EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT? I'M REALLY SORRY ABOUT THIS. THE PRODUCTION WILL COVER THE COS IF WE DID MISPLACE IT. WELL, I APPRECIATE THAT. I'M MORE CONCERNED ABOUT THE SENTIMENTAL VALUE. YEAH, I UNDERSTAND. THIS WHOLE TOWN IS LIKE ONE BIG SENTIMENT TO ME. HOW SO? WELL, I GREW UP HERE. SO THAT'S HOW YOU FOUND US, AND HOW YOU KNOW LUCAS. WELL... I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO SHOOT SOMETHING HERE. PLACE IS SO PEACEFUL AND WELCOMING. WELL, THAT'S WHY WE LOVE IT. YEAH. AND WHY WE HAVE TO KEEP IT THAT WAY. WE HAVE A THREE-STOREY HEIGHT LIMITATION ON ALL BUILDINGS UP AND DOWN MAIN STREET. ANDRONOCORP IS TRYING TO GE THE ZONING FOR A SIX-STOREY. SPOILER ALERT, THEY'RE GOING TO GET IT, BECAUSE THEY'RE ABOVE THE LAW AND CAN BUY OU ANY COUNCIL IN ANY CITY THEY WANT. DO A STORY ON THAT. WELL, WE WOULD IF WE WERE A NEWS CREW. WE HAVE TO TAKE MASSIVE ACTION... BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. WEBSITE'S ON THE FLYER. GET INVOLVED. I'D SAY HE HAS SPIRIT TO SPARE. WELL, HE IS RIGHT. I MEAN, ANDRONOCORP HAS BEEN TRYING TO RUIN THIS TOWN AND EVERYONE IN I FOR YEARS, AND JUST WHEN YOU THINK HARVEY ANDRONICUS IS GOING TO RETIRE, HE HANDS IT ALL OVER TO HIS EQUALLY GREEDY SON. LUCAS CAN'T BE ALL BAD. HE'S LETTING YOU USE THE BOX FOR YOUR SHOW. WELL, WE WERE USING THE BOX. UM... WELL, I'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW. YEAH. YOU'VE REACHED TAMARA. PLEASE LEAVE YOUR NAME AND NUMBER. TAMARA, HI. THIS IS JENNIFER SHANNON FROM RAGS TO RICHES. UM, I THOUGHT WE WERE SUPPOSED TO BE MEETING NOW, BUT MAYBE I GOT THE TIME WRONG. TAMARA? TAMARA? TAMARA? TAMARA! JENN. FRANK! ARE YOU ALL RIGHT? I'M FINE. I FOUND THE BODY INSIDE. SURPRISING HOW MANY OF OUR CONVERSATIONS START LIKE THAT. IT LOOKS LIKE A FALL, BUT I HEARD A CAR SQUEALING AWAY, SO MAYBE SOMEONE TRYING TO FLEE? HERE WE GO. THE SQUEALING COULD BE A NEIGHBOR, OR A CAR PASSING BY. IT COULD BE, BUT THERE WERE SEVERAL CARS IN THE DRIVEWAY WHEN I PULLED UP, AND I'M PRETTY SURE THERE'S ONE LESS NOW. DID YOU GET A MAKE? NO, I DIDN'T SEE IT, I ONLY HEARD IT. OKAY. SHOULD I EVEN ASK WHY YOU'RE HERE? TAMARA ANDRONICUS, SHE BROUGHT A PUZZLE BOX INTO THE STORE, AND THEN IT WENT MISSING. MISSING OR STOLEN? I'M NOT SURE, BUT WHEN I CAME BY TO BREAK THE BAD NEWS, I SAW A SMASHED VASE ON THE FLOOR, AND THEN I SAW SOME MOVEMEN BY THE BACK DOOR. AND HOW DID YOU GE IN THE HOUSE? SO THE FRONT DOOR WAS LOCKED. I CAME AROUND BACK. THIS WAS KNOCKED OVER, AND THAT DOOR WAS OPEN. I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE SOMEBODY RUNNING AWAY. WELL, ANYTHING COULD HAVE KNOCKED THAT OVER. WELL, TRUE, BUT THERE'S THAT. IT'S A LAND LINE. THERE WAS A BIG STORM ON SUNDAY. ANYTHING ELSE? YES. TAMARA'S CELL PHONE... A LOCAL AREA CODE, LAST FOUR DIGITS 2428, AND THE TEXT SAID, "I'M SORRY." SAME TEXT THAT I SEND MY WIFE DAILY. RIGHT NOW, SOMEBODY'S FALLEN. THAT'S WHERE WE START. RIGHT. I DO APPRECIATE YOUR EYE, THOUGH. THE BODY WAS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE STAIRS. I KNOW. I FOUND HER MOTHER-IN-LAW IN THE SAME AREA JUST TWO NIGHTS AGO. REALLY? MM-HMM. WELL, HOW DID SHE DIE? WELL, WE'RE AWAITING THE AUTOPSY RESULTS, BUT LOOKS LIKE AN ACCIDENTAL FALL DOWN THE STAIRS. TWO ACCIDENTS ON THE SAME STAIRS? THAT'S A LITTLE ODD, ISN'T IT? VERY. THE MOTHER-IN-LAW DIES ON SUNDAY. TAMARA BRINGS A PUZZLE BOX INTO THE STORE ON MONDAY, AND SHE DIES ON TUESDAY? YEAH... VERY ODD. COULD THERE BE SOMETHING IN THAT PUZZLE BOX... THAT TAMARA WANTED US TO FIND? OR MAYBE IT'S JUST A BOX. LET ME ASK YOU SOMETHING. WOULD IT BE OKAY IF I GOT BACK TO WORK? OH! YEAH, GO. I'LL CALL YOU LATER. YEAH. WHAT'S GOING ON? MR. ANDRONICUS? YEAH. PLEASE... LET'S HAVE A SEAT. I DON'T WAN TO HAVE A SEAT. WHERE'S MY WIFE? WHERE'S TAMARA? PLEASE... FOLLOW ME. I'M SORRY TO INFORM YOU, BUT WE'VE FOUND YOUR WIFE DECEASED TODAY. WHAT? NO... NO, NO... IT SEEMS SHE MAY HAVE FALLEN DOWN THE STAIRS. WHAT? NO, I DON'T... COULD YOU TELL ME WHERE YOU WERE EARLIER TODAY? I WAS TAKING CARE OF ARRANGEMENTS FOR MY MOTHER'S FUNERAL. I WASN'T... YOU DON'T THINK I DID THIS? NO, IT'S JUST STANDARD PROCEDURE. A... LITTLE RIP THERE ON YOUR SHIRT. WHEN I SAW THE POLICE CARS IN THE DRIVEWAY, I RUSHED TO GET OUT OF MY CAR. I CAUGHT MY SHIR ON THE DOOR. OKAY. DO YOU KNOW OF ANYONE WHO WOULD HAVE WANTED TO HURT TAMARA OR ELIZABETH? NO. SO I'M ASSUMING WITH A HOUSE THIS SIZE THAT YOU HAVE A HOUSE STAFF? THEY WERE LET GO, ON GOOD TERMS AND WITH SEVERANCE. ANY PARTICULAR REASON FOR LETTING THEM GO? MOTHER'S BEEN HOUSEBOUND FOR MOST OF THIS PAST YEAR. SHE'S GOTTEN WORSE IN THE LAST WEEK. SHE WOULDN'T HAVE WANTED HER STAFF TO SEE HER THAT WAY. TAMARA WANTED TO TAKE A HIATUS FROM OUR BUSINESS AND TAKE CARE OF HER FULL-TIME. SO YOU CUT SHOR YOUR BUSINESS TRIP WITH YOUR FATHER, FLEW HOME ON SUNDAY, HOPING TO SEE YOUR MOTHER TO MAKE SURE THAT SHE'S OKAY? I'VE ALREADY ANSWERED ALL THIS IN MY PREVIOUS STATEMENT. REFRESH MY MEMORY. YES, EXACTLY. SHE WASN'T RETURNING ANY OF MY EMAILS OR ANSWERING MY PHONE CALLS, AND... AND THEN WHEN YOU GOT HOME, YOU FOUND YOUR MOTHER THERE. I DROVE BACK FROM THE AIRPOR AFTER A BRUTAL 17-HOUR FLIGHT, AND, UH... I JUST... I FOUND TAMARA HERE. SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. SHE WAS JUST STANDING OVER MOTHER, CRYING. AND YOUR FATHER? WHERE IS HE? I'M ASSUMING HE'S BACK? HE'S STAYING AT THE GRAND HOTEL. HE SAYS IT'S TOO TRAUMATIC TO STAY HERE AT THE HOUSE. UNDERSTANDABLE, BUT WHAT I NEED TO KNOW, IN YOUR OPINION... DO YOU KNOW OF ANYONE WHO WOULD'VE WANTED TO HURT YOUR MOM OR TAMARA? I'M SURE WITH THE NEW CONDOS GOING UP ON MAIN STREET, HALF THE TOWN WOULD LIKE TO SEE ANY ONE OF US GONE. HELLO? HEY, IT'S OFFICER RYAN, A.K.A. BRETT. HEY, HOW'S IT GOING? GREAT. I WAS THINKING MAYBE YOU WANTED TO HAVE LUNCH OR SOMETHING TOMORROW? TITUS GRILL, NOON? NOON WORKS. I'LL MEET YOU THERE. BYE. OFFICER HANDSOME? OFFICER TOTALLY HANDSOME. HOW'S THE FUND-RAISER GOING? SLOW BUT STEADY. DEFINE "STEADY." NOTHING. YOU NEED CASH TO MAKE A BUSINESS. CASH IS SOMETHING YOU DON'T HAVE. HEY, MAYBE I COULD STAR BY TAKING OU A PERSONAL LOAN FROM YOU. OR MAYBE YOU CAN STAR BY TAKING OU THE RECYCLING. THE CLASSIFIEDS ARE ON TOP. NOW, I DON'T WANT TO SAY THA WITH MY RETIREMEN AND WITH HANDING THE REINS OVER TO MY SON, LUCAS, THAT ANDRONOCORP IS GOING TO BE TAKEN TO EVEN MORE TREMENDOUS LEVELS OF SUCCESS, BUT I WILL SAY JUST THAT. SO IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME, I HAVE A NEW HIP I WANT TO TRY OUT ON THE LINKS. LUCAS! SO I PICKED UP SOME WOOD TODAY FOR THE BROKEN MAILBOX. THINKING ABOU HELPING LOGAN OU AND FIXING IT MYSELF. OH, THAT IS SO SWEET. CAN YOU BUILD ME A REPLICA PUZZLE BOX WHILE YOU'RE AT IT? HAVEN'T FOUND IT YET? NOPE, AND I CAN'T HELP BUT WONDER IF SOMETHING VALUABLE WAS INSIDE. WE HAVE WAY MORE EXPENSIVE PIECES IN THE STORE, AND THE WOMAN WHO BRINGS IT IN TURNS UP DEAD A DAY LATER? IT COULD BE A COINCIDENCE. TWO ACCIDENTS IN THE SAME HOUSE IN THE SAME WEEK? AND I'M LOOKING A THE ANDRONICUS WEBSITE. BOTH TAMARA AND ELIZABETH HELPED RUN THE COMPANY, AND THEY'RE BOTH MYSTERIOUSLY GONE. WHO'D WANT TO HURT THEM? I DON'T KNOW. MAYBE SOMEONE AFTER THEIR MONEY? BUT IF IT WERE AN INHERITANCE THING, WOULDN'T HARVEY ANDRONICUS BE THE LOGICAL TARGET? AND LUCAS WAS GETTING READY TO TAKE OVER THE COMPANY. MAYBE SOMEBODY DIDN'T WANT THAT? MM, MAYBE. BUT THERE'S SOMETHING I'M NOT GETTING YET. YET? LET FRANK HANDLE IT, OKAY? OKAY. HEY LOGAN. HEY, MOM, WHAT'S UP? I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OU A PHONE NUMBER. THE LAST FOUR DIGITS ARE 2428, AND IT'S A LOCAL AREA CODE. CAN YOU FIND THAT ONLINE? YEAH, I COULD DO THAT. HOLD ON. UH-OH. 799 NUMBERS STATEWIDE. THAT'S A LOT OF CALLS TO MAKE. BUT IF IT'S WITHIN OUR AREA, THEN WE'RE DOWN TO FIVE PHONE CALLS. I COULD ALSO GE THE NAMES OF PEOPLE, IF YOU LIKE? LOGAN, WHAT WOULD I DO WITHOUT YOU? MAYBE WE COULD WRITE THIS DOWN AS A CONSULTATION FEE? I COULD KNOCK 20 BUCKS OFF YOUR TAB. HOW ABOUT 50? SOLD. LOVE YOU. LOVE YOU, TOO. NO INJURIES OR MUCOSAL LESIONS SEEN. WHY IS IT EVERY TIME I SMELL CARAMEL MACCHIATO, I THINK OF JENN SHANNON? GOOD MORNING, MY FRIEND. AH... THERE WE GO. MM! STILL TOASTY. MM-HMM. SPEAKING OF, I'VE DECIDED WHEN I GO, IT'S CREMATION ALL THE WAY. OKAY, I'LL BITE... WHY? IT'S MY LAST CHANCE AT A SMOKING BODY. THAT'S ACTUALLY ONE OF YOUR BETTER ONES. HOW CAN I HELP YOU TODAY? ELIZABETH AND TAMARA ANDRONICUS? THEY COULD BE HERE, BUT YOU DIDN'T HEAR I FROM ME, RIGHT? OH, OF COURSE NOT. I WAS CURIOUS ABOU THEIR TWO "ACCIDENTS". COULD THERE BE SIGNS THA THERE WAS SOMETHING ELSE? BY "ELSE," COULD YOU BE INSINUATING FOUL PLAY? COULD BE. NOTHING OFFICIAL. WE'RE STRICTLY TALKING "COULDS." WHILE THE HEAVY STRESS ON ELIZABETH'S HEAR WAS IRREGULAR FOR HER ILLNESS, NOTHING ELSE IS SHOWING UP SO FAR. IRREGULAR? ELIZABETH HAD A SUDDEN MASSIVE HEART ATTACK, BUT HER MEDICAL REPORTS DON'T INDICATE HEART DISEASE, WEAKNESS, OR ANY GENETIC ANOMALIES. HER ILLNESS STEMMED FROM BLOOD AND OSTEOSARCOMA CANCER COMPLICATIONS IN HER KNEES, AND THOSE COMPLICATIONS USUALLY LEAD TO BLEEDING IN THE BRAIN, AND THAT WOULD CAUSE A STROKE, NOT A HEART ATTACK. SO WHAT COULD'VE CAUSED ELIZABETH'S HEART ATTACK? SHE WAS GETTING UP IN AGE. ARE YOU SUGGESTING SHE WAS SCARED TO DEATH? OR IT COULD'VE BEEN AN ALLERGIC REACTION. I DID FIND A PEANUT ALLERGY HERE. EVEN JUST A SLIGHT INHALE FROM PEANUT VAPOR COULD TRIGGER AN ANAPHYLACTIC SHOCK. AND THAT SHOCK COULD CAUSE A HEART ATTACK? COULD HAVE, BUT THOSE MINIMAL PEANUT TRACES ARE EXTREMELY HARD TO FIND IN ANY AUTOPSY, IF EVER. WHAT ABOUT TAMARA? WELL, I DID FIND SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNTS OF MORPHINE SULFATE IN HER MOUTH. MORPHINE SULFATE? HEAVY PRESCRIPTION PAINKILLERS. SO AN OVERDOSE COULD HAVE LED TO HER FALL? COULD HAVE, BUT IT "COULD BE" STRANGE THAT ONLY THE POWDER FROM THE MORPHINE SULFATE PILLS WAS FOUND IN HER MOUTH. IT'S AS IF THE CAPSULE SHELLS WERE PULLED APAR MANUALLY, THE CONTENTS EMPTIED INTO HER MOUTH, AND THE SHELLS DISCARDED SOMEPLACE ELSE. SO THE MORPHINE COULD HAVE BEEN PLACED THERE AFTER TAMARA'S DEATH, MAKING IT LOOK LIKE AN OVERDOSE THAT LED TO THE FALL? A KILLER COVERING THEIR TRACKS? COULD, BUT YOU WON'T GE ANYTHING OUT OF ME. SO WHILE ELIZABETH'S DEATH COULD HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT, TAMARA'S IS MOST LIKELY A MURDER? NOW, THAT'S A VERY STRONG COULD. DANI, GO A LITTLE BIGGER. MORE DRAMA. LET'S REHEARSE IT. OKAY. MORE DRAMA? I CAN DO THAT. SAME QUESTION. SO, STILL NO SIGN OF THE MISSING PUZZLE BOX ANYWHERE IN THE STORE? WELL... WE KNOW IT MUST BE SOMEWHERE, BUT THAT SOMEWHERE ISN'T HERE. ALL RIGHT, UM... JUST A LITTLE BI LESS, OKAY? LESS? WELL, THE BOX MUST BE SOMEWHERE, BUT... THAT SOMEWHERE ISN'T HERE. PERFECT. OH... SORRY, KAT. I THOUGH I TURNED IT OFF. NO WORRIES. UM, DANI, THAT-- THAT WAS REALLY GOOD. RIGHT IN THERE IS GOING TO BE REALLY GOOD, 'KAY? A LITTLE "LESS IS MORE." I LIKE IT. OKAY. UH, LISTEN, GUYS, IF WE DON'T FIND THE PUZZLE BOX, IS THERE ANOTHER PIECE IN THE STORE THAT WE COULD MAYBE USE? IF WE DON'T FIND I BY THE END OF DAY, WE'LL ADJUST. ALL RIGHT. IS JENN GOING TO BE HERE SOON? I'LL GIVE HER A CALL. HEY, DANI. HI, HONEY. JOEL AND THE CREW WERE WONDERING WHERE YOU ARE. I'M AT THE ANDRONICUS HOUSE. LUCAS SHOULD KNOW THE PUZZLE BOX IS MISSING. I'LL BE BY THE STORE LATER. PLEASE BE CAREFUL. I WILL. UM, EXCUSE ME? SORRY, I DON'T MEAN TO BOTHER YOU. MY NAME IS JENNIFER SHANNON. I OWN RAGS TO RICHES. IS THIS ABOUT THE PUZZLE BOX AND JOEL'S SHOW? YES. I ALSO WANTED TO SAY I'M SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. THANKS. UM... WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU? TAMARA BROUGH THE PUZZLE BOX IN THE DAY BEFORE SHE PASSED. YEAH, I TOLD JOEL HE WAS FINE TO USE IT, AS LONG AS HE DIDN'T BRING OUR NAME INTO IT. AH, MIGHT MAKE A NICE TRIBUTE FOR MOTHER. SHE LOVED BUILDING THOSE. OH, YOUR MOTHER MADE THEM? IT WAS HER PASSION. WELL, UNFORTUNATELY, THE BOX HAS GONE MISSING FROM THE STORE. SOMEBODY TOOK IT? I DON'T KNOW. WE'RE STILL TRYING TO LOCATE IT, BUT I WAS CURIOUS... DO YOU THINK MAYBE THERE WAS SOMETHING VALUABLE INSIDE THAT SOMEONE WHO KNEW HER WANTED? WELL, THAT WOULD BE A BETTER QUESTION FOR MY BROTHER, QUIN. THEY LOVED BUILDING THEM TOGETHER. IS THERE SOME WAY I COULD CONTACT HIM? HE'S STAYING AT THE OVERVIEW. I'D CALL HIM FOR YOU, BUT WE'RE NOT REALLY TALKING A WHOLE LOT RIGHT NOW. I SEE. WELL, IF I CAN REPAY YOU FOR THAT PUZZLE BOX, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. THANKS. IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME, I'VE GOT SOME THINGS TO DO. I SHOULD REALLY GET BACK TO IT. OF COURSE. IT WAS A PLEASURE MEETING YOU. LYNWOOD. LEAVE A MESSAGE. FRANK... I FOUND A BOTTLE OF PEANUT OIL IN THE RECYCLING BIN AT THE ANDRONICUS HOUSE, AND LUCAS WAS CLEANING IT UP. CALL ME. THANKS. HE SHOULD BE HERE ANYTIME. HANNAH, HEY, I'M SORRY. I WANTED TO CALL, BUT A DRIVER WAS PINNED UNDER HIS CAR. HE'S OKAY NOW, BUT I HAD TO SIT WITH HIM UNTIL THE FIRE DEPARTMEN COULD COME AND CUT HIM OUT. OH, NO. I'M SORRY, I WANTED TO CALL, BUT THAT'S PART OF WHY I DON'T REALLY GET OUT MUCH. WHAT'S THE OTHER PART? TO BE HONEST, I, UH... I JUST GOT OU OF A RELATIONSHIP, AND I HAVEN'T REALLY DUG BACK INTO THE DATING SCENE YET. I HEAR YOU. IT'S NOT REALLY MY THING EITHER AT THE MOMENT. SO WHAT DO WE DO? MAYBE WE JUST HANG OUT. NO PRESSURE, EXPECTATION... NO ROMANTIC DINNERS OR FLOWERS... NONE OF THOSE DATING RITUALS. YOU WILL NOT, I REPEAT, NOT HOLD A DOOR OPEN FOR ME. FINE, I WON'T. LET'S DO IT. I'M IN. SOUNDS GOOD. I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER. BYE. HI, ANDI. HEY, JENN! I'M LOOKING FOR A GENTLEMAN BY THE NAME OF QUIN ANDRONICUS. HE MIGHT HAVE CHECKED IN TODAY OR EVEN YESTERDAY. ACTUALLY, MR. ANDRONICUS CHECKED IN CLOSER TO FOUR DAYS AGO. YES, SATURDAY, BUT YOU JUST MISSED HIM. DO YOU WANT TO LEAVE A MESSAGE? DID YOU SAY SATURDAY? THANKS FOR COMING IN. HOW CAN I HELP YOU? WELL, MAYBE YOU CAN TELL ME WHY YOUR BROTHER, LUCAS, HAS A RESTRAINING ORDER AGAINST YOU? BECAUSE OF TAMARA. A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO, I SAID SOME THINGS ABOUT HER THAT I PROBABLY SHOULDN'T HAVE. THINGS GOT HEATED, BUT I GUESS THAT'S WHAT SHE WANTED. SHE WAS ALL ABOU DIVIDE AND CONQUER. SHE DIVIDED THE FAMILY? WHERE THERE'S MONEY AND OPPORTUNITY, THERE'S TAMARA. SHE PITTED ME AND MY BROTHER AGAINST EACH OTHER FROM THE BEGINNING. I'M SURE YOU'VE SEEN HOW HIGH SHE ROSE IN THE FAMILY BUSINESS. SHE NEVER LOVED LUCAS. SEEMS LIKE YOU'RE NOT HER BIGGEST FAN. THAT DOESN'T MAKE ME HER KILLER. WHERE WERE YOU THE DAY SHE DIED? MAKING FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS FOR MY MOTHER. WITH YOUR BROTHER, RIGHT? HE WAS THERE FOR A BIT, YES. HOW LONG IS A BIT? I'D SAY ABOUT 20 MINUTES. THEN HE LEFT. GUESS IT WAS A LITTLE TOO MUCH FOR HIM TO HANDLE, BUT I WAS THERE THE WHOLE TIME. YOU CAN CHECK WITH THE UNDERTAKER. WHY DON'T YOU TALK TO THEIR LAWYER, ALLAN DEMETRY? HE'D BE MY FIRST STOP. AND WHAT'S MR. DEMETRY GOING TO TELL ME? SOMETHING I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL THEM FOR A VERY LONG TIME. THANK YOU. I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING, BUT I DIDN'T JUST ASK YOU HERE TO TALK ABOUT THE CASE. OH, REALLY? IS IT BECAUSE OF MY WINNING SMILE? MM? OKAY, IS THERE ANY PARTICULAR SUSPEC YOU'RE LEANING TOWARDS? WELL, LUCAS HAD SAID HE WAS MAKING FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS AT THE TIME OF TAMARA'S DEATH, BUT HE LEF THE FUNERAL PARLOR EARLY. HE COULD'VE DRIVEN HOME TO SEE HER. HE WAS IN TOWN FOR BOTH DEATHS, SHOWS UP AT THE SCENE WITH A RIPPED SHIRT, PLUS HE WAS THE ONE WHO WAS CLEANING OUT THE RECYCLING WHEN YOU NOTICED THE PEANUT OIL. COULD HE REALLY NOT HAVE SEEN IT? WELL, HE DIDN'T WAN TO CALL ATTENTION TO I WHILE I WAS THERE. THAT'D BE MY GUESS, BECAUSE WHEN I SPOKE WITH THE FORMER CHEF, HE SAID THE PLACE WAS A PEANUT-FREE ZONE, AND THE WHOLE STAFF WAS LET GO BEFORE ELIZABETH DIED. SO SOMEONE OTHER THAN THE STAFF COULD HAVE SLIPPED THE OIL INTO SOMETHING? WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT LUCAS' BROTHER, QUIN? WELL, I KNOW THAT LUCAS HAS A RESTRAINING ORDER AGAINST HIM, A FIGHT THAT TURNED VIOLEN ABOUT A YEAR BACK. QUIN LEFT TOWN. HE NOW WORKS AS A LINGUISTICS AND HUMAN STUDIES PROFESSOR ON THE WEST COAST. HE'S BACK IN TOWN TO HELP PLAN HIS MOTHER'S FUNERAL. WHICH PUTS HIM HERE AT THE TIME OF TAMARA'S DEATH. TRUE, BUT WITH QUIN'S ALIBI, THERE'S NO WAY THAT HE COULD HAVE BEEN AT THE HOUSE BETWEEN THE TIME YOU LEF THE STORE AND FOUND TAMARA, BUT HE DID BRING UP THE FAMILY LAWYER, ALLAN DEMETRY, WHOM I'VE CALLED AND HASN'T BEEN SEEN SINCE THE TIME OF TAMARA'S DEATH. WENT BY THE HOUSE... NO ANSWER. SO EITHER HE'S ON THE RUN, OR... OR ANOTHER VICTIM. MM. YOU KNOW WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND? WHAT'S THAT? IF QUIN WAS IN TOWN TO PLAN HIS MOTHER'S FUNERAL, WHY DID HE CHECK INTO A MOTEL A DAY BEFORE HIS MOTHER DIED? WELL, THAT DOES MEAN ONE THING... BOTH BROTHERS WERE IN TOWN FOR BOTH MURDERS. MM-HMM. NO CANDLES, NO MUSIC. JUST TACOS. I DON'T KNOW, WAYS TO MY HEART... ONE, BUY ME TACOS, TWO, MAKE ME TACOS, AND THREE, BE A TACO. FINE, YOU'RE BUYING YOUR OWN. ONE TACO, PLEASE. SAME, THANKS. SO... SINCE WE'RE JUST HANGING OUT, CAN I ASK YOU WHAT'S UP WITH YOUR EX? YOU CAN. I JUST DID. WHOA. UM, I DON'T KNOW. THANK YOU. WE NEVER REALLY ARGUED. SHE JUST WOULD EXPLAIN REALLY LOUDLY WHY SHE WAS ALWAYS RIGHT. BEEN THERE. YEAH... AND THE WEIRDEST PAR IS THAT I'VE HAD THIS LAUNDRY BASKET, FULL OF HER THINGS JUST SITTING IN MY CLOSET, AND I HAVEN'T REALLY HAD THE HEART TO GIVE IT BACK. HMM. YEAH, IT'S A LITTLE WEIRD, I KNOW. NO, IT'S... OKAY, IT'S A LITTLE WEIRD. WELL, WHAT ABOUT YOU? I'M NOT USUALLY ONE TO GO LOOKING. I MEAN, I THINK WHEN YOU'RE ACTUALLY LOOKING FOR LOVE, YOU NEVER FIND IT. WELL, I THINK I'VE FOUND TRUE LOVE RIGHT HERE. SCATTER MY ASHES. DONE. HEY, LOGAN. I WENT THROUGH THOSE NUMBERS, AND I FOUND A PRETTY INTERESTING ONE. HOW INTERESTING? THE ANDRONICUS FAMILY LAWYER, ALLAN DEMETRY. I'LL TEXT YOU HIS NUMBER AND ADDRESS. LOGAN, YOU ARE THE BEST. THANK YOU SO MUCH! FRANK! NO, I JUST SAW A BODY MOVING THROUGH THE STORE, SO I... YOU OKAY? OH, I'M FINE. WAS ANYTHING STOLEN? IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THEY TOOK ANYTHING. OKAY. WELL, THIS IS GOOD. UH... BUT? LOOKS LIKE THEY RETURNED SOMETHING. THE MISSING PUZZLE BOX? I CAN GUARANTEE YOU, THAT WAS NOT THERE BEFORE. WHY WOULD SOMEBODY STEAL I AND THEN RETURN IT? I'M NOT SURE. WELL, I CAN DUST I FOR FINGERPRINTS, BUT IT'S NO TECHNICALLY EVIDENCE UNTIL WE CAN PROVE THAT IT'S TIED TO EITHER DEATH. DETECTIVE LYNWOOD? WHEN HE SAW US, HE RAN. AM I UNDER ARREST? YES, I'D SAY A CHAT IS IN ORDER. WELL, THAT'S A LONG LIS OF GREATEST HITS HERE. RIOTING, A DROPPED ASSAULT CHARGE ON A PEACE OFFICER... OH, AND BREAKING AND ENTERING. THERE WAS NO BREAKING AND ENTERING. THAT CHARGE WAS TRESPASSING AT MOST. HOW SO? I WAS PROTESTING THE CONSTRUCTION OF A SKYSCRAPER OVER IN ALDERGROVE. I WAS ON PRIVATE PROPERTY, CLIMBED OVER A FENCE, AND GOT GRABBED FROM BEHIND BY AN OFF-DUTY COP. DID YOU EVER STEAL ANYTHING FROM MRS. SHANNON'S STORE... SPECIFICALLY, A PUZZLE BOX, THEN FOR WHATEVER REASON BRING IT BACK? NO. I'M NOT A THIEF, OR ANYTHING THAT SHEET SAYS. THE REAL CROOKS WEAR SUITS, COME INTO SMALL TOWNS, BULLDOZE EVERYTHING IN SIGHT. HENCE THE ANDRONOCORP PROTEST, AND BY ALL ACCOUNTS, IT'S SOMETHING YOU SEEM FAIRLY ANGERED AT... I'D EVEN SAY OBSESSED. "OBSESSED" IS A WORD LAZY PEOPLE USE TO DESCRIBE THE DEDICATED. OOH, THAT'D BE A GREAT TAGLINE FOR ONE OF YOUR SIGNS. OH, SPEAKING OF TAGS, I'M GUESSING THA THE SPRAY-PAINT IN YOUR BAG AND WHAT YOU'VE GO ON YOUR HANDS THERE IS THE SAME AS ON THE ANDRONICUS GATE. OH, AND I'VE EVEN HEARD ACCOUNTS OF OTHER ANDRONOCORP BUILDINGS BEING DEFACED ALL OVER TOWN. IT IS WHAT IT IS, BUT I NEVER BROKE INTO ANY STORE. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU WERE AT THE ANDRONICUS RESIDENCE? DID YOU SEE OR HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE DEATHS OF EITHER ELIZABETH OR TAMARA ANDRONICUS? NO, BUT THE FEWER OF THAT FAMILY IN THIS WORLD, THE BETTER. IF YOU'RE WITHHOLDING, IT'S OBSTRUCTION. I WAS TAGGING THEIR GATE. I SAW A CAR SPEED INTO THE DRIVEWAY AND SLAM ON ITS BRAKES. A WOMAN CAME OU OF THE HOUSE. I TOOK OFF BEFORE HE GOT OUT OF THE CAR. DID YOU HEAR WHAT THEY SAID? NO. WAS THE WOMAN OLDER OR YOUNGER? YOUNGER. AND THE DRIVER? LIKE I SAID, NEVER SAW HIM. WHAT ABOUT THE CAR? UH, SILVER... GRAY... SEDAN? AND THIS WAS YESTERDAY? YEAH. WHY DIDN'T YOU GO TO THE POLICE? 'CAUSE I KNEW YOU'D SEE THOSE PRIORS, AND I'D END UP NEVER WALKING OUT OF HERE. LOOK... I KNOW I HAVE RED ON MY HANDS.. BUT NONE OF IT'S BLOOD. BUT IF ZACH BROKE INTO THE STORE, WOULDN'T HE HAVE AN INJURED LEG FROM THE FALL? TRUE, BUT HE COULD JUS BE LYING ABOUT THE ARGUMEN TO COVER UP FOR HIMSELF. HE WAS THERE AROUND THE TIME OF TAMARA'S DEATH. NO, JUST BECAUSE HE'S PASSIONATE ABOUT A CAUSE DOESN'T MEAN HE'S A KILLER. OKAY, THEN WHO? I FOUND A NUMBER FOR THE ANDRONICUS FAMILY LAWYER, THE SAME NUMBER THAT TEXTED TAMARA SAYING, "I'M SORRY." ALLAN DEMETRY WAS THE "I'M SORRY?" HE WAS. MAYBE QUIN WAS ON TO SOMETHING WHEN HE SAID DEMETRY WAS INTERESTED IN TAMARA. WELL, IF WE CAN EVEN FIND DEMETRY AND GET THE CELL, THEN I'LL BE ABLE TO APPROXIMATE THE AREA WHERE HE MADE THAT TEXT FROM. WHICH WOULD PUT HIM AT THE SCENE OF THE CRIME, OR SOMEWHERE ELSE. WELL, THIS GUY, HE HASN'T RETURNED ANY OF MY CALLS, HASN'T SHOWN UP AT WORK, AND ALL THE NEIGHBORS SAY THEY HAVEN'T SEEN HIS CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY SINCE TUESDAY. YOU GOT ANYTHING ON TAMARA'S CELL? NO, STILL WAITING ON A WARRANT. CAN'T LUCAS GIVE YOU PERMISSION TO ACCESS HER PHONE? I WISH IT WAS THAT EASY. DETECTIVE, THE BOX HAS BEEN WIPED DOWN. NO FINGERPRINTS. YOU THINKING THERE'S SOMETHING INSIDE, THAT'S PERTAINING TO THE INVESTIGATION? I'M NOT SURE, BUT IF YOU WANT ME TO STAY WITH IT AND GET IT OPEN, I CAN FIND OUT. GIVE IT TO HER. COME TO ME FIRST. I ALWAYS DO. AH. YEAH, RIGHT. HEY, DANI. CAN YOU COVER FOR ME AT THE STORE TOMORROW MORNING? COPPER! MITTENS! LL DROOL J, COME ON. DID YOU OPEN UP A DOG PARK IN OUR BACKYARD? YEAH, IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A DOG-WALKING BUSINESS. I... I THOUGH IT WOULD BE EASIER. IT JUST SEEMS LIKE THE END GOAL IS GETTING FARTHER AND FARTHER AWAY. DON'T WORRY, YOU'LL GET THERE. ANYTHING WORTHWHILE TAKES TIME. YOU THINK SO? I KNOW SO. LET ME HELP YOU OUT. COME HERE, GUYS. COME HERE, YOU. WHAT'RE YOU DOING? STOP. YOU'VE REACHED THE LAW OFFICE MOBILE OF ALLAN DEMETRY. LEAVE YOUR NAME AND NUMBER, AND I WILL RETURN YOUR CALL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. MR. DEMETRY? HELLO? MR. DEMETRY? THANKS. HEY, FRANK. YOU OPEN THE BOX ALREADY? UH... NOT EXACTLY... FRANK, I'M AT ALLAN DEMETRY'S HOUSE. WELL, IS HE THERE? NO, BUT THE SIDE DOOR WAS OPEN, AND SOME FURNITURE'S BEEN OVERTURNED, AND... WELL, FRANK, IT LOOKS LIKE THERE WAS A STRUGGLE. I'M CONCERNED SOMETHING MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED TO MR. DEMETRY. I'LL SEND SOMEONE OVER A.S.A.P. OH, AND, FRANK, ONE MORE THING. I THINK TAMARA AND ALLAN WENT TO A CABIN. I'M GOING TO SEND YOU A PHOTO. LOOK CLOSELY. HER REFLECTION IS IN HIS SUNGLASSES. OKAY, THANKS, BUT PLEASE GET SOMEWHERE SAFE. LOON LAKE... THAT'S NOT TOO FAR. PUT THE PHONE DOWN! WHO ARE YOU? I'M A FRIEND OF THE ANDRONICUS FAMILY. THEY DON'T HAVE FRIENDS. THEY HAVE EMPLOYEES. I KNEW TAMARA. I'M SORRY. I CAN GO AND PRETEND I NEVER SAW ANYTHING. WHY ARE YOU HERE? YOU'RE THE LAST PERSON TO SEND TAMARA A MESSAGE. I WAS HOPING YOU COULD SHED SOME LIGH ON THE "I'M SORRY" TEXT. IF YOU CAN FIND ME, HE CAN FIND ME. WHO'S HE? SAME PERSON WHO GAVE ME THIS... HER HUSBAND. LUCAS. HE'S COMPLETELY LOST IT. HE'LL DO ANYTHING TO ANYONE AT THIS POINT. EVEN KILL? YEAH. WHEN DID LUCAS COME AFTER YOU? UH, TUESDAY. THE SAME DAY TAMARA DIED. HE CAME OVER IN A RAGE, THINKING SOMETHING WAS GOING ON. TAMARA WOULD NEVER ADMI ANYTHING ABOUT US, BUT, APPARENTLY, HIS BROTHER SAW ME SNEAKING OUT OF THE HOUSE ON SATURDAY, AND... TO BE HONEST, AFTER A YEAR OF HIDING IT, I HAD TO TELL HIM THAT I LOVED HER. I LOVE HER. HOW DID YOU GET AWAY? I HAD TO PROMISE TO TEXT AND BREAK IT OFF, AND THEN HE STORMED OUT THE FRONT. THAT'S THE "I'M SORRY." I, UH... I DIDN'T KNOW IF HE WAS GOING TO CHANGE HIS MIND AND COME BACK. I WAS SCARED, SO I BOLTED OU AS QUICK AS I COULD. DO YOU THINK LUCAS WENT BACK AND KILLED TAMARA? I DO... MR. DEMETRY, I KNOW THE DETECTIVE ON THIS CASE. MAY I CALL HIM AND GET YOU SOME HELP. IF THERE'S ONE, THERE'LL BE MORE. I GET THAT IT HURTS... I REALLY DO... BUT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PROFESSIONAL AND AN AMATEUR IS THAT THE PRO PLAYS HURT. ARE YOU LISTENING? SHE WAS REALLY SOMETHING, WASN'T SHE? THEY BOTH WERE. WE'RE GOING TO SURVIVE THIS. WE ALWAYS DO. LUCAS ANDRONICUS, YOU'RE UNDER ARRES FOR THE ASSAUL OF ALLAN DEMETRY. AH, THE SINGLE LIFE. GREAT, ISN'T IT? A FREEDOM TO IT. NO PRESSURE, NO STRESS AT THE END OF THE DAY. YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT REAL FREEDOM'S NOT HAVING TO UPDATE YOUR ONLINE RELATIONSHIP STATUS. OR TAKING THAT PERFEC COUPLE PROFILE SELFIE YOU KNOW THEY TOOK A MILLION TIMES JUST TO GE THAT ONE. I'M ACTUALLY IN A LONG-TERM RELATIONSHIP WITH FUN AND ADVENTURE. ME TOO. AW. WE SHOULD GE OUT OF HERE. YEAH, IMMEDIATELY. HMM. HI. JENN! WE'LL KEEP ROLLING. JOIN US? OH... OKAY, BUT... IF THIS PUZZLE BOX TURNS OUT TO BE EVIDENCE, WELL, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO CLEAR IT WITH THE POLICE TO USE ANY OF THIS FOOTAGE. I'LL CHECK INTO THE LEGALITIES OF IT, JENN, JUST IN CASE. OKAY. HEY THERE. OOPS, SORRY, DARLING. YOU'RE JUST... YOU'RE STANDING IN MY LIGHT. THERE WE GO. YOU'RE REALLY WARMING UP TO THE CAMERAS, HUH? "I'M READY FOR MY CLOSE-UP..." BUT I ACTUALLY AM. I CAN SEE THAT. OKAY, THAT'S, UM... OW... LET'S GET READY TO GO. ARE YOU OKAY? OH. YEAH, YEAH, IT'S JUS AN OLD FOOTBALL INJURY. FLARES UP ONCE IN A WHILE. I DID FIND SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNTS OF MORPHINE SULFATE IN HER MOUTH. ALL RIGHT, WE'RE READY. LET'S GET TO IT. ALL RIGHT, SO... THE PUZZLE BOX MAGICALLY REAPPEARS. SEEMS THERE'S SOMETHING MORE TO THE MYSTERY AFTER ALL, DON'T YOU THINK? UM.. YEAH, UH... CUT? UM... YOU KNOW, THE FAMILY HAS BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH. ARE YOU SURE THERE'S NOT A WAY WE CAN'T RESTRUCTURE THIS EPISODE AND FOCUS ON ANOTHER ANTIQUE IN THE STORE? UH, WELL, JENN, THE BOX IS THE EPISODE... BUT, I MEAN, THEIR NAME WON'T BE ON IT. I DEFINITELY DON' HAVE THE MONEY TO FIGHT THE ANDRONICUS FAMILY IN COURT. FAMILY. OH, I KNOW THAT LOOK. THE FAMILY CREST, OF COURSE. THE CRES IS THE FIRST CIPHER! YES. WELL, I WAS HOPING FOR SOMETHING MORE THAN THAT. OH, IT'S OKAY. YOU'LL GET IT. THAT'S LUNCH, EVERYONE. WHAT? JOEL'S LEG. IT'S THE SAME ONE THE STORE THIEF FELL ON WHEN HE WAS TRYING TO RUN AWAY. HAS HE BEEN LIMPING THE WHOLE TIME? NOT THAT I NOTICED, BUT WHY WOULD JOEL STEAL THE BOX? I DON'T KNOW. IN THE MEANTIME, WE'LL KEEP AN EYE ON JOEL FOR ANYTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY, ESPECIALLY IF IT HAS TO DO WITH THE ANDRONICUS FAMILY. RIGHT. ANDRONICUS FAMILY! QUIN ANDRONICUS... HE USED TO DO THESE PUZZLE BOXES WITH HIS MOM. MAYBE HE COULD HELP ME FIGURE IT OUT. IS THAT SAFE? WELL, I'LL MEET HIM IN A PUBLIC PLACE. A VERY PUBLIC PLACE. THE LOBBY OF HIS MOTEL, AND I'LL LET FRANK KNOW WHERE I AM. ALL RIGHT. I KNOW WHERE YOU ARE, TOO. YOU LOOK GOOD FOR YOUR CLOSE-UP. THANK YOU. NEW HOME-REPAIR BUSINESS? 150 BUCKS PER COMPUTER. MOSTLY SOFTWARE ISSUES SO FAR. THAT'S A GREAT START. YEAH... BUT COMPUBARN HAS THE MARKE COMPLETELY CORNERED AROUND HERE. I'LL BE LUCKY TO FIND A FEW MORE CUSTOMERS, AND EVEN THEN, I'M GOING TO COME UP SHORT. YOU CAN ALWAYS DIVERSIFY. WHAT COULD I DO? SOMETHING THAT YOU ALREADY KNOW AND LOVE. THAT'S IT. THE FAMILY BUSINESS. A ONE-DAY ONLINE MASSIVE GARAGE SALE. ALL MY COLLECTIBLES AND COMICS. ONLY IF YOU'RE SURE. YEAH, I'M SURE. GOOD. AND THEN YOU JUST JUMPED INTO THE AIR AND TACKLED HIM, RIGHT THERE. I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT. I PLAYED A LOT OF FOOTBALL IN HIGH SCHOOL. WELL, AS FAR AS HANGOUTS GO, THAT ONE IS GOING TO BE A HARD ONE TO TOP. SO I GET ANOTHER HANGOUT? OF COURSE... IF YOU WANT ONE. OF COURSE. SO... SO... YOU HAVE MY NUMBER. WE SHOULD... HANG OUT. A LOT. WE SHOULD. CALL ME. I WILL. CAN I MAKE YOU DINNER SOMETIME? ANYTIME. PERFECT. BYE. LYNWOOD. LEAVE A MESSAGE. OH, HEY, FRANK, IT'S JENN. I'M AT THE OVERVIEW MOTEL. CAN YOU DO ME A FAVOR AND RUN A BACKGROUND CHECK ON JOEL JACOBS, THAT PRODUCER FROM THE STORE? HE STARTED LIMPING RIGHT AFTER THE BREAK-IN, AND HE WAS THE LAST PERSON TO TOUCH THE PUZZLE BOX BEFORE IT WENT MISSING. I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE THERE'S A CONNECTION. I'LL CHECK IN WITH YOU LATER. BYE. I'M ASSUMING YOU'RE JENN? I AM. QUIN. HOW CAN I HELP YOU? YOUR MOTHER'S WORK WAS SO INTRICATE. SHE WAS THE BEST... AT EVERYTHING. I WAS SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT HER PASSING, AND LUCAS' ARREST. THEY ARRESTED HIM? ON WHAT? ASSAULT. I'M SORRY, I THOUGHT YOU KNEW. WAS IT ALLAN DEMETRY? WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THAT? IF YOU SAW THE WAY DEMETRY LOOKED AT TAMARA, YOU'D KNOW THERE WAS ALWAYS SOMETHING THERE. LUCAS JUST NEVER SAW IT, OR MAYBE HE DIDN'T WANT TO. NOT MEANING TO PRY... PRY AWAY. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU TALKED TO LUCAS? UH, WELL... HAVEN'T SPOKEN TO HIM MUCH IN THE LAST YEAR. I DID SPEAK TO MY MOM EVERY DAY. I WAS TALKING TO HER FRIDAY WHEN THE CALL DROPPED. I TRIED TO PHONE BACK, BUT THERE WAS NO ANSWER, AND THEN I REACHED OUT TO LUCAS. HE HADN'T HEARD FROM HER EITHER, SO... WHEN NONE OF MY TEXTS, EMAILS, OR CALLS WERE RETURNED, I DECIDED TO FLY HOME, AND THAT'S WHEN I SAW TAMARA AND DEMETRY. DID YOU TELL LUCAS WHAT YOU SAW? I DID. NOW I'M GUESSING MY CALL ALONG WITH MOM'S SILENCE MADE HIM FLY OUT. DO YOU THINK IT'S POSSIBLE THAT LUCAS COULD HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH TAMARA'S DEATH? I DON'T THINK HE'D HUR THE ONE PERSON HE LOVED MORE THAN HIMSELF. YOU KNOW THE WORST PART? I'M NOT EVEN SAD SHE'S GONE. OH, I'M SORRY, I'M... INQUISITIVE. IT'S FINE. I'M THE SAME WAY. I JUST NEED SOME TIME TO REFOCUS. OF COURSE. DO YOU KNOW THE PATTERN? NO, BUT I KNOW THE SYMBOLS, AND I KNOW THE WAY SHE THOUGHT. WHATEVER MOM WAS HIDING MUST'VE BEEN IMPORTANT. HIDING FROM WHO? I DON'T KNOW... YET... BUT THIS SPIRAL DRAWN THIS WAY MEANS "FAMILY", BUT IF YOU TAKE THE SAME SYMBOL AND TURN I UPSIDE DOWN, THEN IT MEANS "DANGER." IT'S LIKE SHE WAS SENDING US RIDDLES FROM THE GRAVE. ALMOST LIKE SHE KNEW SHE WAS IN DANGER? THESE TWO TEAR SYMBOLS... IF YOU PUT THEM SIDE-BY-SIDE, THEY BECOME THE INFINITY SIGN. COUPLED WITH THE SWIRL FOR "FAMILY" AND THE GREEK VERB FOR "IS," IT BECOMES... "FAMILY IS FOREVER." I'M SORRY. UH, I HAVE TO GO. IF YOU'D LIKE, I COULD TAKE IT AND WORK ON IT TONIGHT. WELL, ACTUALLY, I'D LIKE TO HANG ON TO IT, BUT MAYBE I COULD COME BY TOMORROW? SURE. JUST BE CAREFUL. THE LAST PEOPLE TO TOUCH I TURNED UP DEAD. HEY, FRANK. DEMETRY LET US PING HIS CELL, WHICH GAVE US THE LOCATION OF WHERE HE SEN THE "I'M SORRY" TEXT. WHERE WAS HE? HE WAS AT HOME, AN HOUR AWAY FROM THE ANDRONICUS HOUSE. DID YOU FIND ANYTHING ON JOEL? CALLED AROUND. IT SEEMS YOUR PRODUCER FRIEND IS IN SOME SERIOUS DEB WITH SOME VERY BAD PEOPLE. HOW BAD? WORST. LOAN SHARKS. STEEP INTEREST, BIG CONSEQUENCES. SO JOEL MIGHT NEED MONEY IF THE SHOW FALLS THROUGH TO PAY OFF HIS DEBT? WELL, YEAH. JOEL MIGHT HAVE GONE OVER TO ASK FOR SOME CASH. SOMEHOW, THINGS GET HEATED. WHICH WOULD GIVE HIM MOTIVATION TO KILL EITHER ONE OF THEM. IF QUIN'S ALIBI HOLDS, ONLY JOEL AND LUCAS ARE LEFT AS SUSPECTS. TRUE, AND? FRANK, IS IT POSSIBLE THAT JOEL COULD HAVE KILLED ELIZABETH FOR MONEY, AND LUCAS KILLED TAMARA OUT OF A JEALOUS RAGE? YOU'RE SUGGESTING TWO DIFFERENT KILLERS? MAYBE... WITH TWO DIFFERENT MOTIVES. HMM. WELL, MAYBE I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I KNOW. I KNOW THAT TAMARA WAS HAVING AN AFFAIR FOR A WHILE, SOMETHING YOU PROBABLY ALREADY ASSUMED WAS GOING ON, WHICH LED YOU RIGHT OVER TO ASSAULT ALLAN DEMETRY. I ASSUME YOUR SHIR GOT RIPPED IN THAT FIGH AND NOT IN THE CAR DOOR LIKE YOU ORIGINALLY TOLD ME. I WAS LYING BEFORE. NOT NOW. AND AFTER THE FIGHT, WELL, YOU WERE FEELING RILED UP, SO YOU WENT BACK HOME AND SETTLED THE SCORE WITH YOUR WIFE. I WOULD NEVER... MY CLIENT IS ONLY TO BE QUESTIONED FOR THE ASSAULT. OKAY. SO... DID YOU ASSAULT MR. DEMETRY? WELL, WOULDN'T YOU? SHE WAS EVERYTHING TO ME, MY LIFE. HE TOOK THAT FROM ME. SO YOU TOOK IT BACK FROM HIM, RIGHT? 'CAUSE IF YOU CAN'T HAVE HER, NEITHER CAN HE. DON'T ANSWER THAT. I DIDN'T KILL MY WIFE. I LOVE HER. I ALWAYS WILL. CAN YOU TELL ME WHY THERE WAS A BOTTLE OF PEANUT OIL IN YOUR RECYCLING, DESPITE YOUR MOTHER BEING SO DEATHLY ALLERGIC TO IT? I'VE NEVER SEEN ANY OIL, AND I WOULD NEVER BUY IT. WHY DON'T YOU ASK THE STAFF? OH, THEY SAID THE SAME THING. MY MOTHER DIED FROM FALLING DOWN THE STAIRS. WHILE POSSIBLY HAVING A HEART ATTACK CAUSED BY ANAPHYLACTIC SHOCK BROUGHT ON BY PEANUT OIL. WE'RE STILL WAITING TO HEAR BACK THE FINALIZED AUTOPSY, BUT... THIS ISN'T LOOKING GOOD FOR YOU. I WAS AT DEMETRY'S. I WASN'T ANYWHERE NEAR THAT HOUSE WHEN TAMARA DIED. DEMETRY'S HOUSE ACROSS THE BRIDGE? YES. SO? SO IT'S A TOLL BRIDGE. MEANS THERE'S A TIME-STAMPED PICTURE OF YOUR CAR CROSSING EITHER WAY. WHICH WILL SHOW YOU THAT I WASN'T ANYWHERE NEAR TAMARA. LET'S HOPE FOR YOUR SAKE. HELLO? HEY, HANNAH. WHAT'RE YOU UP TO? I WAS THINKING OF HANGING UP THE HANGOUTS. YOU SAID DINNER ANYTIME, SO WHAT ABOUT NOW? WELL, I AM STILL IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD. GIVE ME ABOUT 10 MINUTES OR SO? I'LL SEE YOU THEN. OKAY, BYE. HOW'S IT GOING? I KIND OF DON' WANT TO SELL THESE. I DON'T KNOW. IT'S LIKE MY YOUTH GONE, MAYBE? 1980 MONGO BMX. WHAT? STUNT BIKE. BLACK RIMS, CHROME PAINT. IT WAS THE COOLEST THING ON TWO WHEELS, AND THOSE LAST DAYS OF SUMMER, JUMPING AT THE TRACK, I THOUGH I COULD TOUCH THE SKY IF ONLY I GO HIGH ENOUGH. YOU USED TO JUMP? OH, YEAH. I WAS WAY COOLER BACK IN THE DAY, YOU KNOW, BEFORE RESPONSIBILITIES AND BILLS AND LIFE AND ALL THAT STUFF. WHY DID YOU STOP? BROKE MY COLLARBONE IN THREE PLACES. OUCH. THEN GRANDMA MADE ME RETIRE. SHE MADE YOU SELL THE BIKE? NO, BUT I DID END UP SELLING IT. GOT A DECENT AMOUNT OF CASH FOR IT BACK THEN, CASH THAT I USED AS A DEPOSI ON MY FIRST CAR. I'M GUESSING LIKE THE CAR I SMASHED OUTSIDE? EXACTLY... BUT THAT'S WHEN I LEARNED THAT THOUGH MY BMX DAYS WERE OVER, THERE WAS STILL A LOT OF GREAT THINGS YET TO COME, LIKE MEETING YOUR MOM, HAVING THE TWO OF YOU... IT'S STILL THE BEST TRADE I'VE EVER MADE. SO I GUESS MY COMICS AND MY COLLECTIBLES, THEY'RE MY BMX? YEAH... AND YOU'RE GOING TO TRADE UP, TOO. I AM. YEAH. HANN... NOT. SURPRISE! AVA! OH, I'M SORRY I'M LATE, EVERYONE. IS EVERYTHING OKAY? I'M NOT SURE. FRANK'S ON HIS WAY HERE. LADIES, WE READY TO GO? YES. MR. SOSNIAK! IT'S GOOD TO HEAR FROM YOU. YOU KNOW, I HAVE TO TELL YOU, I WAS CUTTING SOME FOOTAGE LAST NIGHT, AND IT IS REALLY COMING TOGETHER. -THAT'S GOOD. -THAT'S WONDERFUL. YOU KNOW, I WASN'T SURE BEFORE THE LOCATION SCOU THAT COMING ALL THIS WAY WAS GOING TO BE WORTH IT, BUT THIS TOWN, IT'S... IT'S REALLY GROWN ON ME. LOCATION SCOUT? OH, YEAH, THAT'S WHEN CREWS GO TO PLACES BEFORE WE SHOO JUST TO MAKE SURE THE LOCATION'S WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR. I THOUGHT JOEL KNEW ABOUT THIS TOWN BECAUSE HE GREW UP HERE. OH, HE DID, BUT HE STILL HAS TO SELL I TO INVESTORS AND MAKE SURE THE ACTUAL LOCATION IS THE RIGHT FIT. WHEN WAS THIS SCOUT? WELL, I MEAN, MY FIRST ONE WAS PROBABLY FOUR DAYS AGO? FOUR DAYS AGO? AND JOEL WAS WITH YOU THEN? YEAH. WHY? OH, NO REASON. I'M JUST INTERESTED IN THE PROCESS. CAN WE SHOOT YET? YES, WE'RE READY. OKAY, LET'S DO IT. ALL RIGHT. CAMERA'S UP. SOUND SPEED. JENN, BRING US UP TO DATE. YES, WELL... WE DISCOVERED THE COMBINATION FOR, "FAMILY IS FOREVER." NOW, UNFORTUNATELY, THIS DIDN'T OPEN THE BOX, BUT PERHAPS ONE OF THE FINAL CIPHERS HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH FAMILY. SORRY TO INTERRUPT. CUT. MR. JACOBS, A WORD? UH, SURE. MEET YOU OUTSIDE. FRANK, JOEL WAS IN TOWN AROUND THE TIME OF ELIZABETH'S DEATH, AND HE TAKES THE SAME MEDS THAT WERE FOUND ON TAMARA. MAYBE THERE'S SOME CONNECTION? YEAH, I'D SAY SO. F.Y.I., LUCAS WASN'T AT THE SCENE OF TAMARA'S DEATH. HOW DO YOU KNOW? TIMES ON THE TOLL BRIDGE CAMERAS. THERE'S NO WAY HE COULD'VE BEEN THERE. THAT'S QUITE THE LIMP YOU GOT THERE. YOUR MORPHINE'S FOR THAT? NO, IT'S FOR MIGRAINES. JUST... KNEE'S AN OLD SPORTS INJURY. HOW'S THE SHOOTING GOING? IT'S COMING ALONG. SO YOU'LL BE ABLE TO PAY MR. SOSNIAK. HE'S A TOUGH GUY. BIG CONSEQUENCES FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T PAY BACK THEIR LOANS. WELL, WHAT WE DO FOR THE THINGS WE LOVE, RIGHT? WHAT ELSE DID YOU DO? WHAT DO YOU MEAN? WELL, YOU WERE IN TOWN DURING BOTH DEATHS. WE BOTH KNOW THAT LIMP ISN'T BECAUSE OF SOME OLD SPORTS INJURY, AND YOU KNEW THE ANDRONICUS FAMILY. YEAH, I KNEW THEM... A LONG TIME AGO, SURE. I MEAN, WE USED TO PLAY CARDS TOGETHER. ONE NIGHT, I WON A LO OF MONEY OFF OF LUCAS, AND WHEN THEIR FATHER FOUND OUT, LUCAS TOLD THEM THAT I'D CHEATED TO WIN IT, THAT I'D VIRTUALLY STOLEN IT. OF COURSE, HARVEY LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT, AND AFTER THAT, NO ONE WOULD TRUST OR HIRE ME. WHICH IS WHY YOU LEFT TOWN? YEAH. SO MAYBE NOW IS A GOOD TIME TO TELL ME WHY YOU STOLE THE PUZZLE BOX? I DON'T KNOW WHAT... DURING THE TIME OF ELIZABETH AND TAMARA'S DEATH, WHERE WERE YOU? WELL, WHEN TAMARA DIED, I WAS IN A PRODUCTION MEETING WITH MY CREW. I MEAN, THEY'LL VERIFY THAT, AND THE NIGH THAT ELIZABETH DIED, KAT AND I WERE OUTLINING AN EPISODE AT THE DINER FROM DUSK 'TIL DAWN. ASK HER. YOU CAN EVEN ASK THE STAFF. OKAY, I WILL... BUT ALL I REALLY WANT TO KNOW IS WHY YOU TOOK THE BOX? UH-OH. IS THIS A PROBLEM THAT CAN BE SOLVED BY CHOCOLATE CHIP MINT? THINKING AT LEAS DOUBLE CHOCOLATE FUDGE. WHOA. SCHOOL, GUY, OR OTHER? GUY. DOUBLE FUDGE IT IS. I'LL GET THAT. OH, HEY. OFFICER... RYAN. IS HANNAH HERE, BY CHANCE? YEAH, SURE. HANNAH, YOU'VE GOT A VISITOR. YOU OKAY? WHAT'S GOING ON? I THOUGHT YOU WERE COMING BY? I DID. WAS SHE YOUR EX? YEAH. LOOK, I GET IT. YOU WEREN'T READY. I PUSHED YOU INTO IT. NO, WITHOUT YOU, I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN ABLE TO MOVE ON. WHAT DO YOU MEAN? YOU REMEMBER THAT LAUNDRY BASKE FULL OF HER THINGS SITTING IN MY CLOSET? YEAH. SHE CAME BY, WANTING TO MAYBE MAKE THINGS WORK, BUT THE ONLY THING I COULD THINK OF WAS YOU AND THAT LAUNDRY BASKET, AND JUST GETTING I OUT OF MY LIFE, SO THAT I COULD BRING YOU IN. YOU REHEARSED THA ON THE WAY OVER HERE, DIDN'T YOU? I TOTALLY DID... 'CAUSE I WAS HOPING THAT MAYBE WE COULD TRY ONE OF THOSE REAL DATES. YOU MEAN THE ONE WITH EXPECTATIONS, ROMANTIC DINNERS, FLOWERS? IT DOES SOUND PRETTY TERRIBLE, DOESN'T IT? TOTALLY... BUT I'M IN. UH, KAT? JENN, DANI, UM... LOOK, I OWE YOU ALL AN APOLOGY. AS YOU KNOW, I PUT EVERY PENNY, CREDIT CARD, EVERY DROP OF SWEA INTO THIS SHOW. MY FAMILY, MY HOUSE, EVERYTHING ON THE LINE, BUT I BROKE UNDER THE PRESSURE. I THOUGH THAT A MYSTERIOUS BOX GOING MISSING WOULD BE GREA FOR THE EPISODE, THAT IT WOULD HEIGHTEN THE TENSION, BUT THEN IT GO INVOLVED IN A MURDER... AND I'M GUESSING YOU PANICKED AND RETURNED IT? YEAH. LOOK, I JUST WANTED TO DO SOMETHING GREAT IN THIS TOWN, AND I'M SORRY THA I SCARED ANYONE, SO I'LL PACK UP THE CREW AND WE'LL LEAVE BY TONIGHT. YOU RISKED EVERYTHING FOR RATINGS? WELL, JOEL WAS SAYING THAT YOU AND THE CREW WERE WORKING TOGETHER DURING THE NIGHTS OF BOTH DEATHS. IS THAT TRUE? YEAH. I WAS WITH HIM BOTH NIGHTS. I'M SURE THE REST OF THE CREW CAN VERIFY THAT. JENN? ARE WE PRESSING CHARGES? DO YOU HAVE ENOUGH FOOTAGE TO FINISH THE SHOW? WELL, I NEED TO KNOW WHAT'S IN THE BOX TO MAKE THE EPISODE WORK. WELL, IT'S NOT WORTH LOSING YOUR HOUSE OVER. NO, I THINK WE CAN TRY TO FIGURE OU THE FINAL CIPHER. WAIT A MINUTE... REALLY? SO WE'RE ALL GOOD? YES, FRANK, THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT, I'LL LEAVE YOU TO IT. KAT, I'M REALLY... I'M SORRY... BUT I DO THINK THAT WE CAN MAKE THIS WORK. LET'S DO THIS. OKAY, CAMERA'S UP. SOUND SPEED. ACTION WHEN YOU'RE READY, JENN. TALK US THROUGH IT. OKAY. WELL, RIGHT HERE, WE HAVE THE COMBINATION FOR "FAMILY IS FOREVER," BUT THIS SYMBOL UPSIDE-DOWN MEANS "DANGER," SO MAYBE WHAT SHE WAS TRYING TO SAY IS NOTHING IS AS IT SEEMS. EVERYTHING IS UPSIDE DOWN. SO NOW, IF I... IF I ALIGN THE SYMBOL WITH "DANGER" AND THE SYMBOL FOR "HOME," AND I SLIDE OVER THE SYMBOL FOR "IN," WELL, THEN I HAVE... I HAVE, "HOME IN DANGER." OH! IT'S EMPTY. THERE'S NOTHING IN IT. WAIT A MINUTE. THE ANSWER IS NOT IN THE BOX. THE ANSWER IS THE BOX. WHY... IF YOU LOOK INSIDE, THESE LINES AND THE COLORS, THIS IS A PLACE. IT'S A ROOM, AND I'VE BEEN THERE. UH, JENN... DON'T WORRY, I'M CALLING FRANK. SO YOU'VE REALLY SOLVED IT? ALMOST. LOOK FAMILIAR? IT'S AN EXACT RE-CREATION OF THIS LIBRARY. YES, SHE HID HER MESSAGE IN THE PUZZLE BOX, SO THE CLUES ARE PROBABLY IN THIS ROOM. THEY MAY BE ON THE WALLS OR IN THE WALLS. WHAT MESSAGE? THE INFINITY SIGN. THAT MEANS FOREVER... AND THAT'S THE GREEK SYMBOL FOR "IS." YES, OF COURSE. THE FAMILY PORTRAIT. "FAMILY." THAT'S ONE OF THE EARLY CIPHERS. "FAMILY IS..." FOREVER. SHE ALWAYS SAID THAT. "WE MUST LEARN TO LIVE TOGETHER AS BROTHERS OR PERISH TOGETHER AS FOOLS." THAT WAS DEFINITELY HER. NO, NO, NO, THAT CAN'T BE RIGHT. THERE HAS TO BE MORE. IT'S A LETTER FROM YOUR MOTHER. WHAT ARE YOU DOING? I WANT TO KNOW WHAT SHE KNOWS. MR. ANDRONICUS... DETECTIVE LYNWOOD IS ON HIS WAY. WHY DO YOU HAVE A GUN? SHE'S GOING TO TELL US. GO. I THINK IT STARTED ABOUT A YEAR AGO, WHEN LUCAS AND TAMARA CUT OFF CONTACT FROM QUIN BECAUSE OF THE FIGH AND THE RESTRAINING ORDER. QUIN THOUGHT TAMARA WAS HAVING AN AFFAIR. LUCAS DIDN'T WANT TO LISTEN. READ THE LETTER. ELIZABETH SAW ALLAN DEMETRY AND TAMARA EARLY FRIDAY MORNING. TAMARA COULD ONLY ASSUME THAT ELIZABETH'S NEXT PHONE CALL WOULD BE TO LUCAS... A PHONE CALL THAT WOULD LEAVE HER PREPARING FOR A MESSY DIVORCE, LOSING MONEY AND STOCK IN A VERY VALUABLE REAL-ESTATE COMPANY... AND SHE COULDN' LET THAT HAPPEN. QUIN'S REPEATED ATTEMPTS TO GET IN TOUCH WITH ELIZABETH GO UNANSWERED, SO HE FLIES HERE SATURDAY MORNING TO CHECK ON HER... ONLY WHEN HE ARRIVES, HE SEES ALLAN LEAVING THE HOUSE IN THE EARLY HOURS OF THE MORNING. HE CAN'T CONFRONT TAMARA BECAUSE OF THE RESTRAINING ORDER, SO HE CALLS YOU, LUCAS, OVERSEAS, ABOUT DEMETRY, HOPING THIS TIME, YOU WILL BELIEVE HIM. TO KEEP ELIZABETH FURTHER CUT OFF FROM THE WORLD... TAMARA FIRES THE REST OF THE STAFF ON SATURDAY. ELIZABETH KNOWS THAT SHE HAS TO HIDE HER MESSAGE IN A PLACE THAT TAMARA WON'T BE ABLE TO FIND. SHE PUTS THE CLUES IN THE PUZZLE BOX, HOPING THAT QUIN WILL BE ABLE TO SOLVE THEM. KNOWING YOU BOTH WILL BE HOME EVENTUALLY... TAMARA KNOWS SHE HAS TO GET RID OF ELIZABETH AND COVER HER TRACKS... AND WITH ELIZABETH'S FAILING HEALTH, SHE HOPES IT WILL LOOK LIKE NATURAL CAUSES INSTEAD OF AN ALLERGIC REACTION TO PEANUT RESIDUE OR VAPORS THAT ARE UNTRACEABLE IN AN AUTOPSY. LUCAS, YOU ARRIVE HOME ON SUNDAY NIGH TO FIND ELIZABETH DEAD... BUT SOMETHING DOESN'T SIT RIGHT. MAYBE THERE'S TRUTH IN WHAT QUIN HAS BEEN TELLING YOU. I, I... I DON'T KNOW. I WAS UPSTAIRS. I JUST... I CAME DOWN, AND I... TAMARA, OF COURSE, DENIES THE AFFAIR... TEXT HER, RIGHT NOW! OKAY, OKAY. RIGHT NOW, RIGHT NOW. LOOK, I'M GOING TO DO IT, OKAY? YOU CONFRON ALLAN DEMETRY, AND HE CONFESSES IMMEDIATELY. YOU THREATEN HIM. YOU TELL HIM TO BREAK IT OFF VIA TEXT. HARVEY... YOU HEAR ABOUT ELIZABETH'S DEATH AND POSSIBLY THE AFFAIR FROM LUCAS... AND YOU TAKE THE NEXT FLIGHT HOME, BUT YOU ARE ENRAGED. YOU! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE? I DON'T KNOW WHA YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. YOU GO UPSTAIRS, MAYBE LOOKING FOR LUCAS, NOT REALIZING THAT HE'S GONE TO SEE ALLAN DEMETRY. WHAT'S GOING ON? DID ELIZABETH SEE YOU TWO TOGETHER? DID YOU TAKE HER FROM ME? I DON'T KNOW WHA YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. OH, YOU'RE JUST GOING TO LOOK ME IN THE FACE AND SAY IT WAS AN ACCIDENT? I LOVE HER. WHATEVER YOU THINK HAPPENED, DIDN'T. I KNOW THIS IS GOING TO BE HARD FOR ALL OF US, BUT I'M HERE. IT'S GOING TO BE OKAY. DON'T TOUCH ME! IT COULD'VE JUST BEEN AN UNFORTUNATE ACCIDEN THAT HAPPENED IN THE HEAT OF THE MOMENT, BUT YOU KNOW WITH YOUR REPUTATION HOW IT WILL LOOK IN THE PRESS, SO YOU GO INTO PROBLEM-SOLVING MODE. YOU TAKE THE PILLS FROM YOUR RECENT HIP SURGERY, AND YOU TRY TO MAKE IT LOOK LIKE AN OVERDOSE... BUT MY ARRIVAL CUTS THAT SHORT. TAMARA? TAMARA? AND LUCAS, I'M ASSUMING YOU DIDN'T TELL THE POLICE ABOUT THE AFFAIR BECAUSE YOU KNEW THEN YOU WOULD BE THE NUMBER-ONE SUSPEC IN YOUR WIFE'S DEATH. HOW COULD YOU? SHE TOOK MY WIFE, MY NAME. EVENTUALLY, SHE WOULD'VE TAKEN EVERYTHING I BUILT. WE BUILT. WE BUILT. I'M SORRY. THE LETTER WAS A WARNING TO ALL OF US ABOUT TAMARA. MOTHER WANTED ALL OF US TO STICK TOGETHER... YOU, ME, QUIN. SHE WOULDN'T HAVE WANTED ANY OF THIS. MR. ANDRONICUS... YOU CAN MAKE THIS RIGH FOR ELIZABETH. PUT THE GUN DOWN, DAD. PLEASE. DAD... PLEASE... THE GUN WON' SOLVE ANYTHING. OKAY. THANK YOU. SHE LOVED YOU ALL. HER FINAL WORDS... FAMILY IS FOREVER. WE CAN MAKE IT RIGHT. WELCOME! HELLO. -HI, SALLY. -HOW ARE YOU? OH, IT'S A HECTIC WEEK. WELL, "STRESSED" IS "DESSERTS" SPELLED BACKWARDS AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT DESSERT CAN'T FIX. THAT IS MY MOTTO. I'LL JUST TAKE THAT THROUGH TO THE KITCHEN... IF IT MAKES IT THERE. YEAH. SO? SO... SIGNED CONFESSION FROM HARVEY. THE BROTHERS ARE TALKING AGAIN, AND, WELL, QUIN HAS CONVINCED LUCAS TO COMPLY WITH MAIN STREET'S BUILDING HEIGHT CODES. HUH. GREAT JOB AS ALWAYS, JENN. RIGHT BACK AT YOU. OH, I MADE YOUR FAVORITE DISH. HONEY GARLIC RIBS? OKAY, YOUR SECOND FAVORITE. IS IT WEIRD THAT OUR FIRST ACTUAL DATE IS MEETING MY ENTIRE FAMILY? TOTALLY... BUT I'M IN. AND I'M DONE. HEY, I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT. YOUR DAD AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT WE'RE VERY PROUD THAT YOU REACHED YOUR GOAL. WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN YOUR BIGGEST FANS. AND NOW, WE'RE YOUR BIGGEST BUYERS. WE WANT YOU TO GROW UP, BUT YOUR PAST IS A BIG PAR OF WHO YOU ARE. IT'S NOT ALL THERE... JUST ENOUGH. SWEET. THANKS. OH, IT'S ON! IT'S ALL HAPPENING! A STAR IS BORN. I WILL BE SIGNING AUTOGRAPHS AT THE END OF THE PRESENTATION. ARE YOU GOING TO REMEMBER US LITTLE PEOPLE NOW THA YOU'RE BIG AND FAMOUS? WHAT'S YOUR NAME AGAIN? |
