00:00:00But training these dogs, it counts as being in service.
00:00:04Yeah, I see that every day here.
00:00:06We're going to hold questions
00:00:09until I'm finished with my opening statement,
00:00:11and I promise we will get to each and every one of you.
00:00:14The department has made a string of arrests.
00:00:16Don't you know that Hudson detective?
00:00:18Feels like a lifetime ago.
00:00:20-♪♪♪♪
00:00:22-♪♪♪♪
00:00:24Hello?
00:00:26Hey, Sarah, yeah, I'm, uh, I'm on my way.
00:00:28I'm in the car.
00:00:30Okay, see you soon.
00:00:32-♪♪♪♪
00:00:34-♪♪♪♪
00:00:36-♪♪♪♪
00:00:38-♪♪♪♪
00:00:40-♪♪♪♪
00:00:42-♪♪♪♪
00:00:44-♪♪♪♪
00:00:46-♪♪♪♪
00:00:48Finally.
00:00:50I am so sorry we're late.
00:00:52You're not late.
00:00:54I told you to come 30 minutes early.
00:00:57After 20 years of friendship, I know that you and your dogs
00:00:59have a tendency to run a little late.
00:01:01Fair. In my defense, it is much easier
00:01:03to stay on the clock in your world.
00:01:05-♪♪♪♪
00:01:07I rest my case.
00:01:09I will give you that and raise you a teen student
00:01:11who can't find her cell phone.
00:01:13Oh, yeah, those are high stakes.
00:01:15And then there's the PTA and the parents.
00:01:17Esther Academy has a reputation to uphold.
00:01:19Well, I think you're doing
00:01:21a wonderful job, headmistress.
00:01:25Is this your highly trained crime detection dog?
00:01:27Well, he's mid-training,
00:01:29but he's done this kind of demonstration before,
00:01:31so he'll be perfect.
00:01:33Okay, let's get you set up, then.
00:01:35-♪♪♪♪
00:01:37Oh, wow.
00:01:39It is so strange being back here.
00:01:41I feel like I'm 12.
00:01:43Everything looks the same.
00:01:45Well, there are lots of Academy rules
00:01:47about maintaining the integrity
00:01:49and the history of the building.
00:01:51There's only been a renovation to the gym,
00:01:53and we dealt with a burst pipe on the third floor last year.
00:01:55There's a third floor?
00:01:57Yeah, there is.
00:01:59I thought it would be the perfect location
00:02:01for your demonstration.
00:02:03I could have sworn
00:02:05the key to the third floor
00:02:07was the sixth key on the right.
00:02:09Ugh.
00:02:13Oh, Eddie,
00:02:15our custodian.
00:02:17He knows the building better than anybody else.
00:02:19Sorry, Eddie, I'm still getting used to these.
00:02:22Do you happen to know
00:02:24which key opens the door to the third floor?
00:02:26Why are you going up there?
00:02:28Oh, ambiance.
00:02:30Sorry, I'm jazz.
00:02:32Why is that animal in here?
00:02:34Forensic Science Club starts in minutes, Eddie.
00:02:36If you could please help me with the door.
00:02:38♪♪♪♪♪
00:02:46Ah, would you look at that?
00:02:50I'm just gonna go up first
00:02:52and open some windows and let some fresh air in.
00:02:54Oh, thanks.
00:02:58You know, if this works out,
00:03:00I could pitch the PTA on you teaching a class
00:03:02on crime awareness.
00:03:04Oh, thank you.
00:03:06I'm kind of focused on the dogs.
00:03:08I haven't really done firefighting or search-and-rescue
00:03:10in a long time.
00:03:12It's not like you've forgotten all your awesome skills.
00:03:14You loved it, and the girls would love learning from you.
00:03:16Plus, it would be fun working together.
00:03:18Well, that is true.
00:03:20My mom would love it if I was teaching.
00:03:22I'd be even further away from the line of duty.
00:03:24I love your mom.
00:03:26She just worries about you.
00:03:28She wants you to be safe.
00:03:30But it's not about being safe.
00:03:32My dad was safe.
00:03:34He followed protocol.
00:03:36That's exactly the point.
00:03:38Accidents happen even when you do follow protocol.
00:03:42Oh, thank you.
00:03:48Okay, you ready?
00:03:50Can I go gather the girls?
00:03:52Uh, yes.
00:03:54Zeus, you stay with Sarah.
00:03:56Don't make me late!
00:04:02Perfect ambiance.
00:04:18Every crime scene tells a story.
00:04:20There are clues and evidence left behind
00:04:22for investigators to find and to follow.
00:04:24But sometimes we might not even know
00:04:26that we're in a crime scene.
00:04:28And sometimes we may not even know
00:04:30that a key piece of evidence
00:04:32is right in front of us
00:04:34because there are some clues
00:04:36that we can't see or even smell.
00:04:38Oh.
00:04:40But that is where a crime detection dog comes in.
00:04:42Now, you all have met Zeus.
00:04:45And I'm fostering him
00:04:47while I train him to help find people
00:04:49in emergency situations.
00:04:51And unfortunately,
00:04:53sometimes uncover human remains.
00:04:55Does anyone have a guess
00:04:57on how much stronger
00:04:59a dog's nose is than a human's?
00:05:03Yeah.
00:05:05Ten times stronger?
00:05:07That's a very good guess.
00:05:09But try one hundred times stronger.
00:05:11Zeus here
00:05:13can pick up a scent
00:05:15over ten miles away.
00:05:17So today,
00:05:19I have hidden
00:05:21two human bones
00:05:23in this room.
00:05:25Let's see if Zeus' nose
00:05:27can help find them.
00:05:29Find.
00:05:41You got it.
00:05:43Good boy. Now the next one.
00:05:45Find.
00:05:57Yep.
00:06:01Zeus is indicating to me now
00:06:03that he's found something,
00:06:05but that's not where I hid
00:06:07the other specimen.
00:06:09Like you, Zeus is still in school
00:06:11so he hasn't finished his training yet.
00:06:13What?
00:06:17He might need a little more practice.
00:06:21Okay, ladies, that's all
00:06:23the forensics fun for today.
00:06:29What'd you find?
00:06:39Don't touch anything.
00:06:43This is a crime scene.
00:06:51The old-fashioned glasses,
00:06:53clothing, you don't think
00:06:55could have been here?
00:06:57I don't think so.
00:06:59I don't think so.
00:07:01I don't think so.
00:07:03I don't think so.
00:07:05I don't think so.
00:07:08You don't think?
00:07:10Could it be Miss Quinn?
00:07:12Uh, the renovation up there
00:07:14was done last May,
00:07:16June maybe,
00:07:18but Eddie, our janitor,
00:07:20would be able to give you exact dates.
00:07:22And no, Miss Quinn wasn't missing,
00:07:24as far as we knew anyway.
00:07:26Bernadette Quinn resigned abruptly
00:07:28last year and we had no reason
00:07:30to think we would ever see her again.
00:07:34Oh.
00:07:36Are you the guy I have to thank
00:07:38for all the overtime in my future?
00:07:40You know, when I heard
00:07:42the detection dog had uncovered a body,
00:07:44I had a feeling I might find you here.
00:07:46Wow, your detective instincts,
00:07:48sharp as ever.
00:07:50This morning I was hoping to see you.
00:07:52Your wish came true.
00:07:54You look good, Jess.
00:07:56Sarah, good to see you.
00:07:58Or should I say,
00:08:00Headmistress Carrington.
00:08:02Principal Carrington is fine.
00:08:04Oh, does the lab know
00:08:06when they're gonna get the results back for date of death?
00:08:08It'll take a couple days for DNA and forensics
00:08:10to get back to us, but I hear
00:08:12you've ID'd the body?
00:08:14Bernadette Quinn, um, she was a teacher here.
00:08:16We knew her as Miss Quinn,
00:08:18but we both recognize the glasses,
00:08:20the clothing.
00:08:22Iconic, Miss Quinn.
00:08:24It's a little early to call anything conclusive
00:08:26at this point, but let's talk about the teacher.
00:08:28I take it she's been marked absent
00:08:30for some time now?
00:08:33She resigned at the end of the school year last year.
00:08:35As far as we know, she never set foot
00:08:37in the building again.
00:08:39And who all had access to the third floor?
00:08:41I've been told that I have the only key,
00:08:43but that room isn't insulated or practical
00:08:45for students, so it's sat empty for years.
00:08:47Okay.
00:08:49I'm gonna need to see Miss Quinn's resignation letter,
00:08:51any security footage,
00:08:53whatever will help with the investigation.
00:08:55Ugh.
00:08:57I need a minute.
00:08:59Meet in my office in ten?
00:09:01Okay.
00:09:03Let's take a moment.
00:09:07Couldn't the universe give you, like, heads up
00:09:09when you're gonna run into your ex-boyfriend?
00:09:11I know.
00:09:13You're right.
00:09:15I still miss him.
00:09:17It's been three years.
00:09:19We were great together.
00:09:21You're right about that, too.
00:09:23We were great until you weren't.
00:09:25Oh, Eddie.
00:09:27Hey.
00:09:29What'd you find up there?
00:09:31Um, Suze found a body.
00:09:33A body?
00:09:35Where?
00:09:37In the floor.
00:09:39In the floor?
00:09:41Yeah, the police said it's probably been there for a while,
00:09:43maybe a member of the faculty.
00:09:45What, Miss Quinn?
00:09:47They don't know who it is yet.
00:09:49Why do you say her?
00:09:51She was unlikable, I guess.
00:09:53But everybody hated her.
00:09:55Everybody?
00:09:58Everybody?
00:10:00No.
00:10:02It's much more peaceful now that she's gone.
00:10:04Retired.
00:10:06I'm sure the police will know who it is soon enough.
00:10:08Right.
00:10:10You should get a leash on that dog.
00:10:12Okay.
00:10:16Okay.
00:10:20Okay.
00:10:24Let's go.
00:10:26That means Jones is here to pick you up.
00:10:34That's quite the file.
00:10:36Standard records,
00:10:38performance reports, time off request.
00:10:40It adds up over a 30-year career.
00:10:42Um, Miss Quinn's resignation letter
00:10:44will be on the top there.
00:10:46It was on my desk when I returned to school
00:10:48at the end of summer break.
00:10:50I had to scramble to find a replacement.
00:10:52Dated June 22nd.
00:10:54Well, it's a pretty standard resignation letter.
00:10:56Any idea why she resigned so suddenly?
00:10:58Miss Quinn was nearing retirement
00:11:00and was not necessarily
00:11:02in good standing with the school.
00:11:04Really?
00:11:06Why was that?
00:11:08She was...
00:11:10old school.
00:11:12Strict.
00:11:14Bernadette Quinn had a hard time
00:11:16relating to the students.
00:11:18She was unflinching about the roles
00:11:20and the students had a hard time
00:11:23living up to her impossibly high standards.
00:11:25Even the parents complained about her attitude.
00:11:27Yeah, Eddie told me you overheard
00:11:29the students complaining about her a lot.
00:11:31I'm sorry, Eddie? Who's Eddie?
00:11:33Oh, the caretaker.
00:11:35It was becoming clear that Miss Quinn
00:11:37was no longer a good fit for Astor Academy.
00:11:39And as the new principal,
00:11:41I tried to reason with her.
00:11:43I even offered her a generous retirement package,
00:11:45but Miss Quinn couldn't accept
00:11:47that her former least favorite student
00:11:49was now in charge.
00:11:51Why were you her least favorite?
00:11:53It was nothing.
00:11:55Just a silly prank.
00:11:57Decades ago, but Miss Quinn
00:11:59couldn't seem to let it go.
00:12:01What exactly happened?
00:12:03Surely you have better things to do
00:12:05than rehashing a prank
00:12:07that happened years ago?
00:12:09Were you involved in this prank, too?
00:12:11You're not insinuating
00:12:13Sarah had something to do with her murder, are you?
00:12:15You found the body.
00:12:17Sarah's the only one left.
00:12:19Sarah's the only one with the key to the third floor.
00:12:21And right now,
00:12:23that's all I really have to go on.
00:12:25But you'll come off the list
00:12:27once new evidence makes it so.
00:12:29Yeah, well, maybe you should start digging up evidence
00:12:31and stop looking for headlines.
00:12:33Will do.
00:12:35Miss Ramsey.
00:12:37Listen.
00:12:39Miss Quinn rubbed a lot of people
00:12:41the wrong way.
00:12:43Someone would have had to
00:12:45really hate her to kill her.
00:12:48Stuffing her to the floor like that,
00:12:50it just felt personal.
00:12:54Or they were trying to hide something.
00:13:02I'll be in touch.
00:13:04Oh, this is not good.
00:13:06Does Nick really think
00:13:08I had something to do with this?
00:13:10No, no.
00:13:12He's just in his, like,
00:13:14broody detective mode.
00:13:16He's a good investigator.
00:13:18He'll do his job.
00:13:20Hey, do you remember
00:13:22when Miss Quinn threw us in detention
00:13:24for a giggle bit?
00:13:26The madder she got, the harder
00:13:28we laughed.
00:13:30I certainly wouldn't be principal now
00:13:32if Miss Quinn had anything to do with it.
00:13:34Um, you would still be in detention.
00:13:36You never got a break.
00:13:38She was a good teacher, though.
00:13:40Taught me a lot.
00:13:42How to work hard.
00:13:46She wouldn't have taught here for over 20 years
00:13:48if she wasn't a good teacher.
00:13:50She just...
00:13:52wasn't a good teacher for me.
00:13:56It's still early
00:13:58in the investigation, but I can assure you
00:14:00there is absolutely no risk to the students
00:14:02of Astor Academy or its staff.
00:14:04A meeting will be held tomorrow for any parents
00:14:06that may have concerns, but I can promise you
00:14:08we will not rest until we have found
00:14:10the answers.
00:14:12Jazz!
00:14:14What's going on?
00:14:16Well, let's just say they won't be inviting me
00:14:18back to teach the kids anytime soon.
00:14:20Huh.
00:14:22Did you find the body?
00:14:24No, actually, Zeus did.
00:14:26Brownie points for graduation.
00:14:28How awful.
00:14:30It's all over the news.
00:14:32It's nothing I haven't seen before, Mom.
00:14:34I don't know why
00:14:36you insist on working in such a dire
00:14:38profession.
00:14:41Why can't you just be a regular old dog trainer?
00:14:43If you train dogs to find bodies,
00:14:45well, they're gonna find bodies.
00:14:55Your dad and I could see the spark.
00:14:57The spark was never the problem.
00:14:59If anything,
00:15:01seeing him today just confirmed that, but he's still
00:15:03entirely wrapped up
00:15:05in his work.
00:15:07Well,
00:15:09he's missing out.
00:15:11Did you come all this way for a mother-daughter pep talk?
00:15:13Um...
00:15:15Fire Chief Eaton
00:15:17dropped off the contents
00:15:19of your dad's locker today.
00:15:21I think he would have
00:15:23wanted you to have that.
00:15:27No, his locker was his memorial.
00:15:29It's supposed to stay there forever.
00:15:31And it did.
00:15:33For three years.
00:15:35But, well, now the building
00:15:37needs repair.
00:15:39Okay, so what, they just bulldoze
00:15:41through Dad's memory and move on?
00:15:43It's going to be a gorgeous
00:15:45renovation, and your father
00:15:47would have approved of a new
00:15:49wing for the fire station.
00:15:51It's better for the crew.
00:15:53It's better for the community.
00:15:55Okay, look, I can't deal with this right now.
00:15:57I need to close the center. Zeus needs dinner.
00:15:59Why don't I take
00:16:01Zeus to my place for a sleepover?
00:16:04You could have some time to yourself.
00:16:06And I could
00:16:08finally be a grandma for the night.
00:16:12Okay. Thank you.
00:16:14You're the best.
00:16:16I know.
00:16:24What's so funny?
00:16:28Oh, it's just Robert.
00:16:30Robert?
00:16:32Um, Robert
00:16:34is a friend that I meet for lunch
00:16:36sometimes.
00:16:38Like a friend date?
00:16:40Chaz,
00:16:42I refuse to be sad for the rest
00:16:44of my life.
00:16:46You know, your father's legacy
00:16:48is more than what was in that locker.
00:16:50Clearly
00:16:52you know this.
00:16:54You've been following in his footsteps
00:16:56your whole life.
00:16:58But now it's time to
00:17:00take steps forward
00:17:02on your own path.
00:17:04That's what your dad would have wanted
00:17:06for both of us.
00:17:14Here he is.
00:17:18Alright, I'll see you
00:17:20later. Come on, Zeus.
00:17:22Do you like candy?
00:17:24No. No candy.
00:17:30Hey.
00:17:32Hey.
00:17:34This is an impressive center you set up here.
00:17:36Oh, thanks.
00:17:38It's also quite the departure from your time
00:17:40in the fire department.
00:17:42All your volunteer work with search and rescue.
00:17:44Yeah, the daily dose of danger
00:17:46and tragedy got to me after a while.
00:17:48Plus, my heart couldn't take it
00:17:50after my dad died.
00:17:53Yeah, Jess, I was, uh, really sorry
00:17:55to hear about your dad.
00:17:57Would have been nice to hear you say that
00:17:59three years ago.
00:18:03I'm sorry. Uh...
00:18:05No, you know what?
00:18:07You don't have to explain.
00:18:09It doesn't matter.
00:18:11We have both clearly moved on
00:18:13and we should continue to do so.
00:18:15So, any movement on the case?
00:18:17No.
00:18:19Okay.
00:18:21So, any movement on the case?
00:18:23Well, I'm pretty certain
00:18:25that you're not the killer.
00:18:27Oh, thank goodness.
00:18:29No, it's all preliminary right now.
00:18:31Just waiting on the lab techs to finish their work.
00:18:33But we ran through all the missing person files
00:18:35in the whole state
00:18:37and there's no report for Bernadette Quinn.
00:18:41How is that possible?
00:18:43How can someone go missing for months
00:18:45and no one even notices?
00:18:47She must have had acquaintances,
00:18:49family.
00:18:51It's sad, but it happens more than you think.
00:18:53Surely someone knows something.
00:18:55Well, you're right about that.
00:18:57Your friend Sarah failed to mention
00:18:59that she tried to fire Miss Quinn
00:19:01and in return, Quinn threatened
00:19:03to sue the school.
00:19:05Did she ever talk to you about that?
00:19:07No. Why would she?
00:19:09Yeah, I guess that makes sense.
00:19:11She was the new principal.
00:19:13It would have been in her best interest
00:19:15to keep the whole incident quiet.
00:19:18Father, one of the students,
00:19:20complained that Miss Quinn was giving his daughter
00:19:22unwanted attention.
00:19:24Singling her out in class,
00:19:26pushing for too many tutoring sessions.
00:19:28By all accounts, the father was a bit of a squeaky wheel.
00:19:30But it would have been a PR nightmare
00:19:32for the school
00:19:34and it could have led to Sarah losing her job.
00:19:36Yeah, but there has to be more to that story.
00:19:38That's my best friend you're talking about.
00:19:40I'm just following the facts.
00:19:42What about the father who made the complaints?
00:19:44I mean, he must be a suspect too.
00:19:46Yeah. I'm going to talk to him right now.
00:19:48Good. I'll come with you.
00:19:50What?
00:19:52Oh, you heard me, Nick.
00:19:54I'm coming with you.
00:19:56Good morning!
00:19:58Nellie?
00:20:00I thought you were looking to step back
00:20:02from tragedy and danger.
00:20:04Yes.
00:20:06But I thought about it last night.
00:20:08Miss Quinn was tough
00:20:10and a lot of students didn't like her.
00:20:12But I did.
00:20:18The homework was too hard?
00:20:22Things aren't always going to be easy for you.
00:20:26Life is hard.
00:20:28But if you apply yourself,
00:20:30you can handle it.
00:20:32You are in control of your future.
00:20:34I don't care about grammar.
00:20:36I want to do search and rescue
00:20:38or be a fire chief like my dad.
00:20:41Why?
00:20:43I want to help people
00:20:45when they need it most.
00:20:47Now that's honorable work.
00:20:49But it isn't easy work.
00:20:51It takes focus,
00:20:53diligence,
00:20:55and grit.
00:20:57Can you do that?
00:21:01Good.
00:21:03Now let's see it.
00:21:05She never let me settle.
00:21:07She pushed me
00:21:09when I didn't want to be pushed
00:21:11to be my best.
00:21:13And that helped me to get where I am.
00:21:17It's all about perspective.
00:21:19And you could use a little perspective
00:21:21on this case.
00:21:23Is that right?
00:21:25Plus I need to convince you to take my best friend
00:21:27off the suspect list.
00:21:29I guess it would be kind of cool to see you back in action.
00:21:31Like the old days at the academy.
00:21:33But a homicide investigation
00:21:35is very different
00:21:37than fire and search and rescue, okay?
00:21:39It moves at a slower pace.
00:21:41You're going to need a little patience, Jess.
00:21:43And you let me do the talking.
00:21:49Good, detective.
00:22:01Just give me one minute.
00:22:03Yeah.
00:22:06What's going on? What's up?
00:22:08Robert is in the hospital.
00:22:10He's fallen and broken his arm.
00:22:12Robert? Like Robert from your date?
00:22:14You're his emergency contact?
00:22:16Yes.
00:22:18Robert is someone special, a very nice man
00:22:20who I like spending time with.
00:22:22Okay, Mom.
00:22:24I don't have time to apologize to you
00:22:26for wanting to be happy, Jess.
00:22:28I need you to get over here and pick up Zeus.
00:22:30Okay, I'll be right there.
00:22:36Everything okay?
00:22:38Yeah, I just need to make a quick stop first.
00:22:40Okay.
00:22:46Sorry, buddy. Only a short ride this time.
00:22:48Good.
00:22:52Hey, now, don't be too grumpy about it.
00:22:54Listen here, Zeus.
00:22:56We're going to find answers.
00:22:58I don't want you finding any more bodies today.
00:23:00Got it? Okay.
00:23:02Let's not get too chummy, you two.
00:23:04We're taking him to the center to drop him at his kennel.
00:23:06No fraternizing.
00:23:12You will hang out with Jones
00:23:14while we talk to Mr. Maynard.
00:23:30Mr. Maynard?
00:23:32Detective Nick Kolsoff.
00:23:34This is my associate, Jazz Ramsey.
00:23:36Just have a few questions for you.
00:23:38Now's not really a good time.
00:23:40I got to get these boxes to the shipper.
00:23:42It'll only take a minute.
00:23:44When are you moving?
00:23:46Saturday.
00:23:48Oh, so Maddy will get to graduate with her class at Aster.
00:23:50You know, they say that moving
00:23:52is one of life's more stressful events.
00:23:54That's a lot,
00:23:56but it's worth it.
00:23:58Promotion for me and a new chapter for Maddy.
00:24:01Just leave all this behind us.
00:24:03Can you tell me about what led to you
00:24:05filing a complaint against Ms. Quinn
00:24:07at the school last year?
00:24:09The principal assigned Ms. Quinn
00:24:11to tutor Maddy to help her with her dyslexia.
00:24:13They had private sessions for a reading comprehension.
00:24:15And how did Maddy respond to the 101 teaching?
00:24:17Got her grades up to where they needed to be for college.
00:24:19Maddy felt like her old, happy self again.
00:24:23How so?
00:24:25Maddy's always felt misunderstood
00:24:27and a bit of an outsider
00:24:29because she was adopted.
00:24:31It got worse when her mother and I divorced two years ago.
00:24:33And is Maddy's mother
00:24:35still involved in your life?
00:24:37She's out of the picture.
00:24:39Maddy took it pretty hard,
00:24:41so I guess the attention of Ms. Quinn,
00:24:43she liked it.
00:24:45Makes sense. She missed her mom.
00:24:47You mentioned unwanted attention
00:24:49from Ms. Quinn beyond the tutoring?
00:24:53Quinn was always calling on Maddy in class,
00:24:55singled her out.
00:24:57She even gave her books
00:24:59to help her with her reading.
00:25:01Books from an English teacher
00:25:03doesn't seem...
00:25:09I ended the sessions, but Quinn wouldn't stop
00:25:11calling on Maddy in class. Maddy felt singled out.
00:25:13Even the other students
00:25:15started making fun of her because of it.
00:25:17We would bump into her in the neighborhood
00:25:19out on the weekends. Couldn't have been a coincidence.
00:25:21And Sarah Carrington was so dismissive.
00:25:23Quinn was a good teacher,
00:25:26but her obsession with Maddy was weird.
00:25:28The school completely mishandled
00:25:30this whole situation.
00:25:32Did Maddy ever mention anything
00:25:34unusual happening?
00:25:36No, she never said anything.
00:25:38I'll be excusing me.
00:25:42Thanks for your time.
00:25:50Adults ain't not going your way.
00:25:52I saw that Maddy's dad's
00:25:54still angry at Ms. Quinn.
00:25:56He has motive.
00:25:58It makes sense he'd be protective of his daughter.
00:26:00But was he even at the school that day?
00:26:02How would he have known about the third floor?
00:26:04We got in the key and
00:26:06there's motive, but not much opportunity.
00:26:08Maybe there's some
00:26:10other way to access the third floor
00:26:12that we don't know about.
00:26:14My officers checked. There's no other access.
00:26:16But I like where your head's at.
00:26:18Outside the box thinking.
00:26:21Why leave the body
00:26:23in the floor?
00:26:25That's the question.
00:26:27Hey, you want to grab some lunch?
00:26:29Talk through some theories?
00:26:31I don't know if I'm ready for lunch.
00:26:33Not ready for lunch in general?
00:26:35Or lunch with me?
00:26:37I'm going to go to the school
00:26:39and talk to Sarah about the lawsuit.
00:26:41Okay.
00:26:43She's more likely to open up to you than me anyway.
00:26:45But if you talk to her,
00:26:47try and remain objective, impartial.
00:26:49Ask leading questions, but let her do the talking.
00:26:51Okay.
00:26:53You're going to do great.
00:27:09Oh, hey.
00:27:11Can I talk to you for a few minutes?
00:27:13I'm helping Nick with the investigation.
00:27:15Ooh.
00:27:17Not like that.
00:27:19I just need to clarify a few things.
00:27:21It'll have to be later.
00:27:23I'm actually about to start the assembly
00:27:25in the auditorium.
00:27:27Let the parents and students know
00:27:29the police are investigating.
00:27:31And we'll be offering extra protection.
00:27:33What are you going to say if they ask
00:27:35if the victim's Miss Quinn?
00:27:37That the police haven't confirmed
00:27:39the victim's name yet?
00:27:41I'm actually relieved about that
00:27:43because if everybody knew it was Miss Quinn,
00:27:46all the students and the faculty
00:27:48will be in the auditorium.
00:27:50So if you need to look around, now's a good time.
00:27:52Up!
00:27:54Let's go.
00:28:10I brought him back after the weekend safe and sound.
00:28:12I appreciate that, Sarah.
00:28:16And I can see you even cleaned out his cage.
00:28:20Then who is responsible for this reckless act?
00:28:22Leaving the door open to the hamster cage
00:28:24is the act of an imbecile.
00:28:28Where is this poor, innocent creature?
00:28:32It's probably out there cold and hungry,
00:28:34missing its home.
00:28:38Speak up now.
00:28:40Speak up now.
00:28:42There are consequences for your actions.
00:28:44They must be punished.
00:28:54Sarah.
00:28:57Okay.
00:28:59Objective commercial.
00:29:27Sarah. Careless.
00:29:33Caught ya.
00:29:35If you want some candy, you could just ask...
00:29:37Wait, were you...
00:29:41You think I did it?
00:29:43Jazz, not you too.
00:29:45No, I'm just trying to stay close to the case
00:29:47to keep you off the suspect list.
00:29:49Look, I know this world,
00:29:51I know the cops, and I can help.
00:29:53But it doesn't help if it seems like
00:29:55I'm not hiding things.
00:29:57Then why didn't you mention Miss Quinn
00:29:59almost sued the school?
00:30:01You have to tell Nick these things,
00:30:03even if you don't think they're relevant.
00:30:05Okay, look, I...
00:30:07I didn't bring it up
00:30:09because the situation basically resolved itself.
00:30:11Okay.
00:30:13I was supposed to meet Miss Quinn
00:30:15and her attorney after school
00:30:17on the last day of classes,
00:30:19but the meeting was canceled last minute.
00:30:21And then she resigned.
00:30:23Assumed that her lawyer advised her not to sue.
00:30:25Well, what did
00:30:27Maddie Minard have to say about it?
00:30:29Maddie's a great kid with a bright future,
00:30:31but she's quiet.
00:30:33Keeps to herself.
00:30:35Her dad is strong-minded.
00:30:37He's the one who pushed for Miss Quinn to be fired,
00:30:39but there was no evidence to support his accusations.
00:30:41And since Maddie opposed it,
00:30:43I...
00:30:45I tried to move Miss Quinn to the library.
00:30:47She spent so much time there anyway.
00:30:50Who's that?
00:30:56Oh, just the usual chaos?
00:31:00Who's that man?
00:31:02Hello?
00:31:04Can I help you?
00:31:08Excuse me?
00:31:12Watch it.
00:31:14Sorry, Eddie.
00:31:20Okay.
00:31:38I have no idea where he went.
00:31:40So you've never seen that man before?
00:31:42Positive.
00:31:44All of the parents know that they or any guests
00:31:46need to sign in at the office.
00:31:48Was he here for the memorial?
00:31:50He could have known Miss Quinn.
00:31:52No. Why come late? Why run away?
00:31:54You gonna tell Nick about the man?
00:31:56No, not yet.
00:31:58Well, he's keeping things from the investigation now.
00:32:00All right.
00:32:02I kept a note about the man with the limp,
00:32:04but I don't even know if he's connected to the case.
00:32:06And they say Nick's gonna stop answering my calls
00:32:08if I call him every five minutes
00:32:10with a vaguely possible-ish clue.
00:32:12I highly doubt Nick would ever not answer the phone for you.
00:32:14Well, once he realizes
00:32:16I don't know what I'm doing, honestly.
00:32:18Search and rescue was like running a race
00:32:20from A to B.
00:32:22Investigation is like stumbling through a maze blindfolded.
00:32:26Can you even read that?
00:32:28Yeah.
00:32:30Miss Quinn's laughter.
00:32:32No.
00:32:34Oh, lawyer.
00:32:36Yeah, that's the lead.
00:32:38The lawyer might be the last person who saw her alive.
00:32:46Why is it I don't believe a word that he said?
00:32:48Wait.
00:32:50Deirdre Mason with the law firm Kennedy & Kline.
00:32:54Did you actually meet her?
00:32:56A few times.
00:32:58She'd come into the school for meetings with Miss Quinn
00:33:00and I presumed to get a feel for the school.
00:33:02How many times?
00:33:04She was in three times last spring.
00:33:06So it's feasible
00:33:08that she knew her way around the school?
00:33:10Wait a minute.
00:33:12It looks like she also signed in
00:33:15at 3 p.m. on June 22nd.
00:33:17It's odd that she would be in the building that day
00:33:19but cancel our meeting.
00:33:21Yeah.
00:33:23What time does she leave?
00:33:25The logbook doesn't say
00:33:27but it's not unusual for guests to forget to sign out.
00:33:29Signing in is more important.
00:33:31Okay.
00:33:33Do you have security cameras?
00:33:35Some way that we could corroborate timelines
00:33:37when people came and left?
00:33:39Yep.
00:33:41Usually footage is only stored for three months
00:33:43but the school's attorney made me copy the files
00:33:45around that time
00:33:47in case Miss Quinn took legal action.
00:33:49Um...
00:33:51But I gave all of this to Nick already.
00:33:53That's weird.
00:33:55He didn't tell me.
00:33:57Anyway, can I see it?
00:33:59Mm-hmm.
00:34:01There she is with Miss Quinn.
00:34:03Deirdre Mason, always in a business suit.
00:34:05All right.
00:34:07She enters at 3 p.m.
00:34:09just like the digital logbook says.
00:34:11Uh, there's me and the other teachers
00:34:13leaving between 4 and 4.45
00:34:15and Deirdre at 5.45
00:34:17followed shortly after by Eddie.
00:34:19After that,
00:34:21no one enters or exits the building
00:34:23until a few weeks before the end of summer break.
00:34:25Miss Quinn never left the building that day.
00:34:29Why wouldn't Nick tell me about this?
00:34:31Why don't you head home?
00:34:35I have to prep my fake smile
00:34:37to welcome the angry parents
00:34:40to the emergency PTA meeting.
00:34:42Apparently, they are not pleased
00:34:44that a murder suspect
00:34:46is running their daughter's school.
00:34:48Yikes.
00:34:50Good luck.
00:34:52It's all right.
00:34:54I'll just tell them what they need to hear.
00:34:56Gotta love damage control.
00:34:58Oh, that reminds me.
00:35:00Sorry, what?
00:35:02Damage control.
00:35:04The parents did not love that I let you hide
00:35:06real human bones in the room
00:35:08Oh, no, I left him the bones in the room.
00:35:10What?
00:35:12I told him it was all gone, Jazz.
00:35:14You have to go get it.
00:35:16I can't take any more heat from these parents.
00:35:18I'm hurrying.
00:35:22Do you ever feel bad about the prank
00:35:24we played on Miss Quinn?
00:35:26No, never.
00:35:28I honestly thought she would be happy
00:35:30that there was another hamster in the classroom,
00:35:32but Miss Quinn happy?
00:35:34Should have known better.
00:35:36Yeah.
00:35:40Sarah, we have to tell the truth.
00:35:46There. The hamster isn't lost anymore.
00:35:48Miss Quinn can't be mad.
00:35:50We'll never get caught because she won't know the difference.
00:35:52But you let your ten-year-old cousin have it.
00:35:54Lies are okay if they make other people feel better.
00:35:56Just put on a smile and act normal.
00:36:06Come on.
00:36:36Come on.
00:37:06Come on.
00:37:36Come on.
00:37:46Asher?
00:37:48The PTA meeting is in the auditorium.
00:37:50I am aware, Miss Ramsey.
00:37:52Maddie snuck out of Memorial and ran home
00:37:54without grabbing her stuff from her locker.
00:37:56Was she upset?
00:37:58I honestly don't know what Maddie's thinking
00:38:00half the time these days.
00:38:02She doesn't talk to me. She's always on the computer.
00:38:05This Quinn nonsense was supposed to be over.
00:38:09You know what? It is over.
00:38:11In a few days, this will all be behind us.
00:38:29Jess?
00:38:31Nick?
00:38:33What are you doing here?
00:38:35Putting in a little face time, PTA meeting.
00:38:37Helping with some nerves.
00:38:39You all right?
00:38:41Look like you've seen a ghost.
00:38:43Yeah, um...
00:38:45Sarah asked me to remove the bone I had forgotten on the third floor.
00:38:47And while I was up there, someone unlocked the door and came in.
00:38:49So there's another key.
00:38:51I knew it.
00:38:53Yeah, someone who knows their way around a crime scene, apparently.
00:38:55They could still be inside.
00:38:57Using the PTA meeting as cover.
00:38:59All right, I'll take a look.
00:39:01See if there's anything suspicious.
00:39:03Um, and check out Asher Menard.
00:39:05And Eddie.
00:39:07Eddie's always around.
00:39:09He knows the school
00:39:11and he's had ample opportunity to make a copy of the key.
00:39:13Well, Eddie's on my radar.
00:39:15I'm going to talk to him.
00:39:17Look, Jazz,
00:39:19I spoke to my superiors.
00:39:21They want me to take care of this meeting,
00:39:23but then I'm going to have to shift my focus
00:39:25to more higher priority cases.
00:39:28High priority?
00:39:30Given Miss Quinn's
00:39:32status,
00:39:34there's less pressure
00:39:36from family and the media.
00:39:38So what?
00:39:40She just doesn't matter?
00:39:42Someone just broke into a crime scene.
00:39:44Obviously, there's still something going on here.
00:39:46And I'm going to check it out.
00:39:48But until we get answers back from forensics,
00:39:50how she died, when she died,
00:39:52we're kind of spinning our wheels here.
00:39:54And I can see this is getting to you.
00:39:56It might be a good idea
00:39:58for you to take a step back, too.
00:40:00Well, I'm not going to do that.
00:40:02Because she was important to me.
00:40:04She's important to the students.
00:40:06This is so typical of you.
00:40:08If there's not a camera or a press conference,
00:40:10it's not worth your time.
00:40:12Okay, that's not true.
00:40:14Look, I know this is important to you.
00:40:16It's important to me.
00:40:18And I'm going to do what I can.
00:40:20In the press conference,
00:40:22you said you would do everything you could.
00:40:24Do you mean anything you say?
00:40:28Jazz,
00:40:30my media presence helps everyone.
00:40:32Okay?
00:40:34The city needs a sense of security and trust
00:40:36and community involvement leads to tips,
00:40:38which leads to arrests.
00:40:40Yeah, only in high-priority cases, apparently.
00:40:42It's out of my hands, Jazz.
00:40:44Look, I became a detective
00:40:46because I want to help people.
00:40:48You know me.
00:40:50No.
00:40:53I knew you.
00:40:57You still know me, Jazz.
00:41:01The Nick I knew
00:41:05would have come to my dad's funeral.
00:41:08He said he cared about my parents.
00:41:10He said he loved me.
00:41:14You changed.
00:41:18And it hurt me.
00:41:20Yeah.
00:41:22You were so devastated
00:41:24by your father's accident.
00:41:26So was your mommy.
00:41:28We all were.
00:41:30And I just didn't know
00:41:32how to make it better.
00:41:34When we had broken up,
00:41:36I thought in that moment
00:41:38you two needed each other
00:41:40more than you needed me.
00:41:42That was never true.
00:41:44Sorry.
00:41:46I gotta get in this meeting.
00:41:50But I'll tell you what.
00:41:52One morning after my shift,
00:41:54we can meet up, okay?
00:41:56We'll go over some evidence.
00:41:58I want you to read on this.
00:42:00I need your help.
00:42:14♪♪♪
00:42:16♪♪♪
00:42:18♪♪♪
00:42:41Phone ringing
00:42:45Jez, I'm glad you called.
00:42:47you called. Someone's been planting flowers at dad's grave. That was me honey. You can't even
00:42:54keep a cactus alive. Gardening was dad's thing. Well I've had a lot of time on my hands since
00:43:01your dad died. I thought I would take up gardening. You did that for dad? We find our own way to honor
00:43:09those we love. I'm sorry I was so hard on you the other day. I'm sure Robert is very nice.
00:43:18How's he doing by the way?
00:43:23He's just fine. It turns out his arm wasn't broken. Soft tissue damage is still painful.
00:43:32Really I'm sorry. She's having a tough day.
00:43:38It's been a tough couple of years if I'm being honest. I'm sorry. I really miss dad.
00:43:43Me too.
00:43:50What would he say if the two of you were talking right now?
00:43:58Shut up Jazzy.
00:44:08Let me call you back mom. Okay. All right I love you.
00:44:12You too.
00:44:25Hey have you been following us? You can try running away but I don't think you'll get far.
00:44:33What are you doing at the school today?
00:44:35I know I shouldn't have been there. But I was starting to get worried about Bernadette.
00:44:42Bernadette's been gone for how long? The police think a little over a year. You with the police?
00:44:48No no no I'm just helping with the investigation. I'm Jaz. Ramsey. Sam. Sam Tilner.
00:44:57Sam. Sam Tilner. Bernadette was my cousin. Well estranged cousin.
00:45:09When was the last time you saw Bernadette?
00:45:13We'd summer together. The family cottage. Thick as thieves. As kids.
00:45:20We haven't really spoken for many years. I fell on some hard times a few years back.
00:45:28Found myself unhoused. Instead of offering to help me Bernadette judged me for the decisions
00:45:37that led me there. She wasn't kind.
00:45:44Do you and Bernadette have any other family?
00:45:46No. I'm the last of the living. She didn't have any friends either.
00:45:53A hard person to get along with? She chose to live that way. Always kept people at a distance.
00:46:02She can't be blamed for that. Bernadette changed. She was never the same after the accident.
00:46:10What accident?
00:46:14Doors open. Morning. Morning. Um did you get my messages? Uh yeah. It's uh 7 a.m. you know.
00:46:26Yeah but you said you had evidence for me. I was thinking maybe we could talk about us first.
00:46:33I think we've already talked enough about us. Let's just focus on work.
00:46:36I think we've already talked enough about us. Let's just focus on work.
00:46:41Okay. Um I'm still waiting to get the full report but the lab sent this over.
00:46:48Just photos of everything that was found of the victim.
00:47:00Wait.
00:47:01Oh. I want to show you something.
00:47:14Okay.
00:47:20This is our class photo. That's Miss Quinn with the cat eye glasses.
00:47:23She always used to wear them on a chain around her neck. Okay.
00:47:26Okay. So the glasses do suggest that the victim could be Miss Quinn
00:47:33and the dental records agree with it.
00:47:39So it's definitely Miss Quinn. Dental records say so but I like the wafer DNA.
00:47:46Well you're thorough. I'll give you that. So what do you got for me? Okay.
00:47:5220 years ago Miss Quinn was hit by a drunk driver. Her husband and daughter were killed in the
00:47:57accident. Thanks. Okay now I'm awake. Her daughter was only 14 at the time.
00:48:05Man that's tragic. And you think this is relevant to the case somehow?
00:48:11It's just Miss Quinn had this whole life outside of school that no one knew anything about and then
00:48:17she lost it. It's feasible that she fought so hard not to retire because her job was all she had.
00:48:23I think that's relevant. Yeah I agree. I just want to pull up the police report.
00:48:33Okay. It says here the person that was driving the car that hit them was a young woman named Susan Harper.
00:48:39She was intoxicated. Susan's lawyer argues that there was ice on the road. The car skidded out.
00:48:48Miss Quinn stood before the hit. But how is that relevant? Susan was intoxicated. Well it was her
00:48:54first offense so she did jail time and it was a lenient sentence. The question is what do you want
00:49:02me to do with all this? I don't know yet. I'm thinking about Miss Quinn's life. I mean she must
00:49:09have lived somewhere before she disappeared. Wouldn't it be pretty obvious to a landlord
00:49:14or the city if she just stopped paying rent or property taxes? That's a good point.
00:49:20Got you. 2276 King Street, Cleveland. Looks like she purchased the property with her husband in the late 90s and hasn't been on the market since.
00:49:42The property's still listed under her name. Utility bills, property tax, it's all been paid in full the last year.
00:49:49The question is by who? I don't know. I'm gonna find out. Well I think we should do it together.
00:49:57I don't want you taking any unnecessary risk like you did at school yesterday. That's a good idea.
00:50:01I'll drive. I can't go now. I gotta be in court all day testifying on another case. It's gonna have to
00:50:07wait till tonight. Seriously? Jess, I'm giving you everything I can here. I'm all yours outside of
00:50:14office hours. Is that your best offer? Yep. Fine. I'll take it. I'll see you tonight. I'll meet you at the house.
00:50:35Adulting, not going your way? CUNHEALTH. An Ensure Complete with 30 grams of protein.
00:50:40Did you know your skin barrier is more receptive to skin? She doesn't want to eat. There's no faking it with her.
00:50:45We sent you Blue Team's number and nav again.
00:51:03Kennedy and Klein, how can I direct your call? Hey, may I please speak to Deirdre Mason?
00:51:08Miss Mason no longer works at the firm. She resigned last year.
00:51:12Oh, well, um, do you happen to know what firm she moved to or how I could reach her?
00:51:17No idea. She sent a letter of resignation and then never came back.
00:51:22Really, um, could you maybe tell me how- I'm not your personal search engine, ma'am,
00:51:26and I cannot give out information about former employees.
00:51:29I'm really going to need Nick's badge for that resignation letter. What am I missing?
00:51:50Hello? Hey, where are you? I'm at the house. The house?
00:51:54Miss Quinn's house. You forgot. Nope, I did not forget. You're going to have to sit tight
00:52:02because I have some paperwork to do. I just got out of court and the captain's waiting on it.
00:52:06Well, I don't know if it slipped your mind, but sitting tight isn't exactly one of my strong suits.
00:52:11Maybe make it your strong suit, at least until I get there.
00:52:14Look, Jess, I told you, investigations, they take time.
00:52:17Yeah, but the lights are on in the house. I mean, whoever's in charge of the lights,
00:52:21Yeah, but the lights are on in the house. I mean, whoever's living in Miss Quinn's house
00:52:25is right in front of me. I could just knock on the door.
00:52:28Jess, I would not do that.
00:52:37Okay, fine. I promise I won't knock on the door.
00:52:38Excuse me?
00:52:53Sam.
00:52:56Funny running into you again.
00:52:58So you've been squatting here since last summer?
00:53:09Squatting? How's sitting?
00:53:14Bernadette sent me a message to watch her cat for a while.
00:53:17She was retiring and taking a trip to our family's country home, so I did what she asked.
00:53:24And?
00:53:24She never came back.
00:53:28You didn't think that was odd?
00:53:31I thought retirement to the country had been good to her, and she decided to stay.
00:53:35And leave you her house?
00:53:37I actually thought she was taking pity on me. Bernadette shamed me for the choices that I made
00:53:42in my life. She knew that all I needed was a break, some help to get me back on my feet.
00:53:48When I heard about the body at the school, I thought about how long she's been away.
00:53:53I got worried.
00:53:55So you've been paying all her bills?
00:53:58It only made sense.
00:54:00I know it seems strange.
00:54:02But Bernadette used to say that this house hasn't really been her home since her family was killed.
00:54:10Did Miss Quinn leave any personal items behind?
00:54:13All kinds of stuff.
00:54:15I just cleaned her desk and some random stuff she had lying about.
00:54:20So that it would all be in one place when she got back.
00:54:28Her daughter sure was a lovely girl.
00:54:31No, this is Miss Quinn's student, Maddie.
00:54:35This one's Layla.
00:54:37I remember Bernadette taking this like 20 years ago.
00:54:41A little more, maybe?
00:54:58Ah!
00:55:19What's that?
00:55:28Jazz, I told you to wait.
00:55:34The exciting stuff happened in the park after.
00:55:37Are you okay?
00:55:39How badly are you hurt?
00:55:40No, it's just a few scrapes.
00:55:44I need to show you what I found in Miss Quinn's house.
00:55:50Exhibit A, Miss Quinn's student.
00:55:53Exhibit B, Miss Quinn's daughter.
00:55:56The one that was killed in the drunk driving accident?
00:55:58Yeah, the resemblance.
00:56:05That's uncanny.
00:56:07Now, we don't know the extent to which Maddie knew Miss Quinn's investment in her,
00:56:12but if her dad did, she'd know that they're moving out of the country.
00:56:16And if they leave, we won't get them back.
00:56:18We won't be able to question them.
00:56:21All right, this is something.
00:56:23We're getting closer.
00:56:24Then there's Sam Tilner.
00:56:25You know, he had a lot to benefit from Miss Quinn's disappearance.
00:56:28He had a place to live and a fresh start to life.
00:56:31There's Eddie.
00:56:32Eddie just pops up everywhere.
00:56:34There's a lawyer, you know, in her resignation letter.
00:56:37Jazz, Jazz, take a breath, okay?
00:56:39Slow down.
00:56:39No, no, I'm fine.
00:56:41You're not fine, Jazz.
00:56:44You gotta be aware of your surroundings.
00:56:46You can't help people if you need help yourself.
00:56:51We're gonna fix you up, then we'll look at the case.
00:56:55Weeknights.
00:56:56This is just wonderful.
00:56:58Solve along with...
00:57:02They got you pretty good up here.
00:57:05Just use the surface wound, it'll heal.
00:57:08It's the stuff underneath you can't see that really hurts.
00:57:19How's your mom holding up?
00:57:22Same as me.
00:57:24Heartbroken.
00:57:28Your dad was such a good man.
00:57:31I looked up to him.
00:57:34I really didn't think you would have wanted to see me at that funeral.
00:57:39All I wanted was to see you.
00:57:43You to just show up and prove me wrong.
00:57:47I wanted to.
00:57:50I was devastated too.
00:57:54And then I got pulled into a big case and...
00:57:59For what it's worth, I get why you broke it off with me.
00:58:04I wasn't able to be the boyfriend you deserved.
00:58:07I had to focus so much on my career.
00:58:13Well, that aside, I'm happy for you.
00:58:19The TV, the promotion.
00:58:22You got everything you wanted.
00:58:25Yeah.
00:58:27Well, not quite yet.
00:58:35But you seem like you're in a better place now.
00:58:39Yeah.
00:58:40Training the dogs, it's healing.
00:58:45And if I can help bring closure to other families
00:58:47who are missing their loved ones, then that's meaningful.
00:58:54You're also turning into quite the investigator.
00:58:56Okay.
00:58:57But I have to insist we work together on the Quinn case here on out.
00:59:02Well, I thought you said this case wasn't a priority.
00:59:05Well, maybe you are.
00:59:13I kept thinking when I was laying there.
00:59:17All I have to come home to is a freezer full of human remains and samples for the dogs.
00:59:24No, I'm serious.
00:59:26I don't want to end up alone like Miss Quinn.
00:59:31It's impossible.
00:59:38I guess I should let you get some sleep.
00:59:40Yeah.
00:59:41We can start fresh on this in the morning.
00:59:46Goodnight.
00:59:48Goodnight.
00:59:54Here.
01:00:06Nice.
01:00:09I got a call today from your teacher, a strict one.
01:00:13Miss Quinn?
01:00:17She thinks Sarah's a bad influence on you.
01:00:20Because she convinced you to pull the old hamster switcheroo?
01:00:25Yeah, she's upset because you and Sarah thought she wouldn't notice a difference.
01:00:32All our actions have consequences, Jazz.
01:00:37But it seems to me like you and Sarah, you guys are trying to make things right, yeah?
01:00:42But you feel bad about lying, don't you?
01:00:47Where do you feel that?
01:00:48You feel that in the pit of your stomach?
01:00:50Yeah, that awful feeling?
01:00:53That's today's consequence.
01:00:57Shut up, Jazzy.
01:00:59You're gonna make mistakes.
01:01:03But you're gonna get it right.
01:01:07Mm-hmm.
01:01:09Mm-hmm.
01:01:21So
01:01:48Good morning, Sleepyhead.
01:01:50Morning.
01:01:52Make yourself comfortable.
01:01:54I was beginning to worry you had a concussion.
01:01:57You, uh, making an omelet?
01:01:58Ha ha.
01:02:00How'd you get in here?
01:02:01I forgot, I actually still have a key.
01:02:03Gave it to me for emergencies.
01:02:05You really should change your locks every few years.
01:02:08It's too early for lectures.
01:02:09It's not too early to solve this case.
01:02:11I already contacted the offices of Kennedy and Klein.
01:02:14They're gonna send over a copy of the teacher's resignation letter.
01:02:17Thank goodness for that badge of yours.
01:02:19I'm also gonna get that fabric that you ripped off the attacker,
01:02:21bring it to the lab, see if we can lift any DNA off it.
01:02:25Okay, now you're just showing off.
01:02:27I'm gonna pick up Zeus, uh, go into the school.
01:02:30I think Sarah Nash and Renard should know about the photos Ms. Quinn had of Maddie.
01:02:34Yeah, good idea.
01:02:42Uh, Jez, what happened to your head?
01:02:45I'll tell you later.
01:02:46Um, any chance you contacted Maddie's dad?
01:02:48He said he couldn't join us till later.
01:02:50What is this about?
01:02:51We're gonna need a quiet place to talk.
01:03:00Zeus!
01:03:01I told you I can't stand dogs!
01:03:20Eddie, the dogs are strained.
01:03:22Hey, open the door, show me your hands, and come out slowly.
01:03:25What is with you, Ramsey?
01:03:30I'm just trying to do my job, but you can't just stick your dog on me!
01:03:37Come on, he's probably just looking for some chicken I had for lunch yesterday.
01:03:41Zeus!
01:03:55Looks like Zeus found what he was looking for.
01:04:02You attacked me.
01:04:04Well, no, no, why would I do that?
01:04:06You tell me.
01:04:09I'm saying nothing.
01:04:10I haven't done anything!
01:04:12We'll see about that.
01:04:16I'm telling you, I had nothing to do with the murder.
01:04:19So you'll attack a woman walking alone, but murder?
01:04:23That's a step too far for you?
01:04:25I was only trying to send Jazz a message.
01:04:28You're not telling me the truth, Eddie.
01:04:30I'm not lying!
01:04:32My officers found a bag full of cash and poker chips in here.
01:04:35You want to explain that one to me?
01:04:37That does not make me a murderer.
01:04:39Maybe not, but it's pretty suspicious, don't you think?
01:04:44It's an inheritance.
01:04:46I swear, look, I keep it upstairs with the books.
01:04:50No one goes up there, no one else had a key.
01:04:52I just like to keep it safe, that's all.
01:04:54Or maybe you have a gambling problem.
01:04:58Maybe you're into something illegal.
01:05:01And maybe Miss Quinn figured it out.
01:05:05Or she at least had her suspicions like I do.
01:05:07So maybe she threatened to report you and you needed to keep her quiet.
01:05:11Now, she was on the outs with the school anyway.
01:05:14You knew about the renovations, you had plenty of time to make a copy of that key.
01:05:18You had motive, opportunity.
01:05:21I think you killed her and put her body in that floor so you could keep your secrets.
01:05:24I did not kill her.
01:05:25Eddie, I've seen the footage.
01:05:27You were the last person to walk out of this building before the summer break.
01:05:31Look, okay, fine.
01:05:34Look, I take a bit of money from the school and I use it to gamble.
01:05:38But I always put it back.
01:05:40I am not a killer.
01:05:50You can tell me all about that down at the station.
01:05:51I guess you never really know someone.
01:05:54Eddie was always so chill and easygoing.
01:05:56I mean, he was unreliable and got around to things in his own time.
01:06:00But it's all starting to add up.
01:06:04It is a relief to get to the bottom of this though, so we can just put it behind us.
01:06:10Eddie attacked me because he didn't want me to expose he was stealing money from the school.
01:06:14But it's rash, short-sighted.
01:06:19To kill someone over it.
01:06:23Oh, Asher, thank you so much for coming in.
01:06:27You again.
01:06:29Detective Kolosov was pulled off on an urgent matter.
01:06:31He'll be joining us soon.
01:06:32When will Maddie be joining us?
01:06:35As soon as you call her from our classroom.
01:06:37Maddie's not at school today.
01:06:39What do you mean she's not at school?
01:06:42I already checked.
01:06:43She never signed in.
01:06:45I already checked.
01:06:46She never signed in.
01:07:15So,
01:07:35they're identical.
01:07:37Miss Quinn's teacher Mason's two different women, the exact same resignation letter.
01:07:45Kennedy and Klein.
01:07:53Yes, this is Detective Kolosov.
01:07:56Yeah, I'm looking at the resignation letter you sent over earlier.
01:07:59Can you offer me any insight as to why Deidre Mason resigned?
01:08:03You'd have to ask her.
01:08:04She left without warning.
01:08:06Never even cleaned out her desk.
01:08:08The whole thing was totally unprofessional.
01:08:10And would you consider that to be out of character for her?
01:08:14Well, it was odd because everyone at the partners say that Deidre works so hard to
01:08:17turn her life around and do some good.
01:08:19They should really do better background checks on the people they hire.
01:08:24Thank you very much.
01:08:32She's not answering.
01:08:32Something's wrong.
01:08:34Let's not jump to conclusions.
01:08:35Did Maddie say or do anything?
01:08:38Did Maddie say or do anything unusual this morning?
01:08:41I told her to stay home and pack, but she insisted on coming to school.
01:08:44She said she had to pack her books up and she needed to stay late for a club or something.
01:08:49And how is she feeling about your upcoming move?
01:08:52She was really excited about it for a few weeks.
01:08:54And then recently she got very overdramatic.
01:08:56Said she was nervous about moving so far away.
01:08:59Kids her age can struggle with being uprooted.
01:09:01They long for familiarity, stability.
01:09:04Then why would she run away?
01:09:05Well, if she was upset, then maybe she's seeking comfort with family, friends.
01:09:11She's close to some cousins, sort of, but they're out of town.
01:09:17The other day, Maddie mentioned to me a friend that she spoke to a lot.
01:09:23Yeah, she had mentioned this friend.
01:09:24I haven't met her yet.
01:09:25She hasn't come to the house.
01:09:28Layla, that's her name.
01:09:30Layla.
01:09:32Maybe I can find her online.
01:09:36So, does Maddie spend a lot of time online?
01:09:52Playing apps, games.
01:09:54She doesn't have a lot of friends.
01:09:55Here, Maddie's friends list.
01:09:57Oh.
01:09:58Okay, Layla.
01:10:01Here she is.
01:10:05She doesn't have any other friends and her profile picture's a cat.
01:10:09What teenage girl do you know that doesn't have a single photo of themselves online?
01:10:13I don't think this is a real profile.
01:10:14I think it's a catfish.
01:10:20I think I know where Maddie is.
01:10:24Sam is here.
01:10:27I'm gonna go check the house.
01:10:29Okay.
01:10:35Peter Mason is Susan Harper.
01:11:05Maddie, are you okay?
01:11:17Jasmine Ramsey.
01:11:19As I live and breathe.
01:11:22I wish I could say I was happy to see you.
01:11:25Feeling is mutual, my dear.
01:11:28But if you'll excuse us, Layla and I have a plane to catch.
01:11:33Layla, your daughter is dead.
01:11:36I don't know what you're doing here, but this has to stop.
01:11:40Do you have a daughter, Jasmine?
01:11:44No.
01:11:45Then you can't begin to imagine the love a mother feels for her daughter.
01:11:50The pond?
01:11:54You'll never understand the loss I feel
01:11:56and the sacrifices I have had to endure to get her back.
01:12:06Come on, Jasmine. Pick up.
01:12:09Come on.
01:12:12You're right.
01:12:15I don't understand, but I'd like to try.
01:12:18Susan Harper destroyed my life in an instant.
01:12:21She deserved to pay for her sins.
01:12:23Susan Harper served her sentence.
01:12:26She was filled with remorse.
01:12:28Then why was I the one living a life sentence without my family?
01:12:31Why did she get to live a reformed life when she took the lives of two beautiful people?
01:12:39Because life is just hard.
01:12:44You taught me that.
01:12:47So I took control of my life.
01:12:50When I realized that God gave me a second chance with Layla,
01:12:55my daughter reincarnated in Paddy.
01:12:58I knew I had to reform my life, and that Susan Harper's had to end.
01:13:06Put your bag on, Layla, dear.
01:13:07Please don't do this.
01:13:09Jas?
01:13:10Nick!
01:13:11Jas, you okay?
01:13:13Put it down.
01:13:14Paddy is innocent in this.
01:13:15Innocent?
01:13:17Of course my Layla is innocent.
01:13:18She deserved to live with her mother.
01:13:21Not like that Susan.
01:13:22She didn't deserve anything.
01:13:23Susan didn't deserve a life sentence.
01:13:25She turned her life around.
01:13:27She couldn't change the past, but she wanted to help people,
01:13:29and she never stopped speaking out about drunk driving.
01:13:32No!
01:13:32She was a monster!
01:13:34You tracked her for years, didn't you?
01:13:37Imprisoned.
01:13:37And then law school.
01:13:39And then when she changed her name to Deidre Mason.
01:13:42Deidre Mason was the body in the floor.
01:13:46So who are you?
01:13:48Susan Harper, Deidre Mason, how does this work?
01:13:51I'm not Deidre Mason.
01:13:53Deidre Mason, how does this work?
01:13:55That's actually a good question.
01:13:58Susan.
01:13:59Deidre Bernadette.
01:14:01Which iteration should I be?
01:14:04Making Deidre disappear was easy enough.
01:14:07Just a simple switcheroo.
01:14:10Thanks to you and your friend Sarah for that idea.
01:14:14Sarah and I had nothing to do with any of this.
01:14:17A classroom hamster.
01:14:20Don't you remember Jasmine?
01:14:22Sarah put a new one in his place and thought I'd never know the difference.
01:14:28No, that was a prank.
01:14:30At worst, Sarah's cousin begged us to take care of the classroom pet.
01:14:35We thought you'd assume he got lost in the school,
01:14:38but you were so upset, so we replaced him,
01:14:40but we never killed anyone.
01:14:42That was you.
01:14:45I'll take full credit.
01:14:47I had all the resources I needed in the library.
01:14:57And Deidre Mason was more than happy to help.
01:15:04I mean, she wasn't very happy as the final pieces fell into place.
01:15:16What's with all this?
01:15:29What's going on?
01:15:30It's a terrible truth that as women age,
01:15:34they become invisible in the eyes of society.
01:15:40But this time, it worked in my favor.
01:15:46Alas, it's time for me to disappear again.
01:15:53Now that I have my daughter back,
01:15:56it's time for my happily ever after.
01:16:00And in case you didn't get the hint, no one is going to stop me now.
01:16:06Ah!
01:16:07No!
01:16:12You're okay.
01:16:13You're okay.
01:16:14Linda!
01:16:15Okay.
01:16:16Okay.
01:16:21It scares me how much planning Miss Quinn put into hurting Deidre.
01:16:25She looks exactly like her there.
01:16:27I know.
01:16:28The clothing, the wig, the camera angle.
01:16:31She thought of everything.
01:16:33You know, she even hacked the dental records.
01:16:36You should not have gone in alone.
01:16:39I know.
01:16:39Never go in without backup.
01:16:41I just...
01:16:42I thought I knew Miss Quinn.
01:16:44You know, if I saw her, I could calm her down that she wouldn't hurt Maddie.
01:16:49I'll never do it again.
01:16:50Promise.
01:16:53If you had been hurt, I couldn't have lived with that.
01:17:14Dad would have really loved all these flowers.
01:17:17He would.
01:17:19He does.
01:17:23Chin up, right, Dad?
01:17:26He's so proud of you.
01:17:28I am too.
01:17:31Training crime dogs?
01:17:33Catching a killer?
01:17:36That, Jasmine Ramsey, is a path only you could walk.
01:17:40Thanks, Mom.
01:17:43Hey, do you want to go get something to eat at that Italian place down the street?
01:17:47Yeah, that sounds good.
01:17:50That's a relief.
01:17:52Because I invited Robert.
01:17:53He's probably already there.
01:17:56Jazz?
01:17:59Are you sure you're ready for that?
01:18:03Definitely.
01:18:07I am learning things are not always as they seem.
01:18:10And I want to meet the man that makes my mom so happy.
01:18:14Because you deserve to be happy, Mom.
01:18:17You do too, sweetie.
01:18:21All right, let's eat.
01:18:23We have a graduation to get to.
01:18:26You're going to miss him, won't you?
01:18:28It's going to be hard sending him off to his new life.
01:18:32But that's my service.
01:18:35Okay, come on.
01:18:37Service, huh?
01:18:39I got a garden that could use a little bit of that service.
01:18:44I never thought I'd see this day.
01:18:48Zeus really stepped it up.
01:18:50He's such a good dog.
01:18:51You're a great trainer.
01:18:54But Zeus does almost all the important work.
01:19:00It's Nick.
01:19:01He's outside.
01:19:07Hey.
01:19:08Hey.
01:19:09What are you doing here?
01:19:10I thought you might want to know the DNA results came back.
01:19:13Confirms that the body on the third floor was Deidre Mason's.
01:19:19Cold comfort, but closure.
01:19:25You know, I couldn't have solved this case without you.
01:19:28We couldn't have solved this case without Zeus.
01:19:31That's true.
01:19:36Any word from Maddie?
01:19:38Yeah, her and her dad made it safely to South America.
01:19:41I think she was ready for a change after all of this.
01:19:44She actually asked if Zeus and I would be her pen pals.
01:19:48Although I suspect she just wants cute pictures of Zeus.
01:19:51I think you're right.
01:19:54So what happened to Zeus?
01:19:56Well, Zeus is going to a canine unit in Georgia.
01:20:00They're very excited to have him.
01:20:03And what about you?
01:20:04Me?
01:20:06I love training dogs.
01:20:08There will always be more pups to foster and train, so.
01:20:11I thought you might say something like that.
01:20:18Hey, buddy.
01:20:23Just a little something for the future.
01:20:27For me?
01:20:29Yeah.
01:20:32New partner, new friend.
01:20:37Oh my goodness, hello.
