00:00:00Man, these are so good.
00:00:02You like pinos, aren't you?
00:00:05I love the parsley she used.
00:00:07Oh, thank you, thank you so much.
00:00:09It's such a beautiful spread.
00:00:11Oh, you're welcome.
00:00:13Oh, yes, yes, nothing too good for your daughter.
00:00:16I'm loving these beef sliders, by the way.
00:00:18Actually, they're bison.
00:00:20Bison?
00:00:21Yeah, per the bride's request.
00:00:23Of course they are.
00:00:25Well, I better grab a couple more and get my money's worth.
00:00:28There you go.
00:00:30He's accepted Jess as his own.
00:00:33She looks so happy, doesn't she?
00:00:37With her band of besties.
00:00:42Well, I think it's really nice that so many people have found love a second time around.
00:00:48Can I get a scotch, meat?
00:00:50Chester, taking a break from all that wheeling and dealing?
00:00:53Work and wait.
00:00:55Tonight is all about sporting Jess.
00:00:57Right.
00:00:59Doubt it all you want.
00:01:01Jess and I make solid partners.
00:01:03We've got big goals for Whitetail.
00:01:05I don't doubt Jess's sincerity.
00:01:07I doubt yours.
00:01:09While she's distracted planning this wedding,
00:01:11you're quietly trying to poach her high-end clients.
00:01:14What are you talking about?
00:01:16I'm on to you.
00:01:18And as soon as this wedding's over,
00:01:20Jess will be too.
00:01:28And this is busting.
00:01:38I've got to talk to Tommy.
00:01:40Hey, Katie.
00:01:42Well, hello.
00:01:44Hello, hello.
00:01:46So good to see you.
00:01:47You too, you too.
00:01:48Have a seat.
00:01:49You look great.
00:01:51I really appreciate you coming, Tommy.
00:01:53Well, I appreciate the invite.
00:01:56Take a picture, Mom.
00:01:57It'll last longer.
00:01:59What?
00:02:01No, I see.
00:02:02I was, I was...
00:02:03You see back there?
00:02:04I was just trying to make sure that the waiter was,
00:02:06you know, doing the same thing.
00:02:09Uh-huh.
00:02:10Anyway.
00:02:12I'm headed to Charlotte's house.
00:02:13Her mom's here.
00:02:14Oh, okay.
00:02:15I love you.
00:02:17Text me when you get there, okay?
00:02:19Tell Charlotte's mom I said thank you.
00:02:21Yay!
00:02:24Whoa, hey!
00:02:25Oh, shoot, man!
00:02:27That's expensive.
00:02:29If looks could kill.
00:02:32It's a far cry from City Hall, huh?
00:02:34Oh, come on.
00:02:35City Hall worked.
00:02:36Worked?
00:02:37No, it didn't.
00:02:38We're divorced.
00:02:39Anyway.
00:02:40Water under the bridge now.
00:02:42This time, I'm doing it right.
00:02:44I hope he makes you happy.
00:02:46I hope the same for you, too, one day.
00:02:50Congratulations.
00:02:51Excuse me.
00:02:56Am I allowed in here?
00:02:58It's my kitchen.
00:03:00You can be here anywhere I am.
00:03:02Well, you did it again.
00:03:04Oh.
00:03:05And to put a smile on Jess's face?
00:03:08That's not easy.
00:03:10She wasn't that easy.
00:03:13I know.
00:03:14I know.
00:03:17She wasn't that bad.
00:03:20You know, it was, um, fun.
00:03:23You're a terrible liar.
00:03:25I know.
00:03:26This is why I'm the chef and you're the detective, right?
00:03:28No, I'm off-duty tonight.
00:03:29Is a cop ever off-duty?
00:03:31Stick around.
00:03:32You'll find out.
00:03:33But can you handle the heat?
00:03:35Try one.
00:03:37The heat?
00:03:38Yeah.
00:03:42Child's play.
00:03:43Mm-hmm.
00:03:47Mm-hmm.
00:03:49See, now this is fun.
00:03:52Yeah.
00:03:58Hey.
00:03:59Is that him?
00:04:00The famous detective?
00:04:02You're drunk and soaked in champagne.
00:04:05I'm celebrating.
00:04:07I'm getting married to the most gorgeous bride in Oak Park.
00:04:11There you are.
00:04:14Do they look like a couple to you?
00:04:17Does it matter?
00:04:19Look at you now, honey.
00:04:21I'd say you, you upgraded.
00:04:24Oh.
00:04:25Oh, easy.
00:04:27What?
00:04:28You're drunk.
00:04:29Take a walk, get some coffee.
00:04:32Dad.
00:04:40Hey.
00:04:41Hi.
00:04:42You leaving?
00:04:43I had fun.
00:04:44You did?
00:04:45I did have fun, yep.
00:04:48So, my fiancé is upset at me for some reason.
00:04:55Katie, how about you and I grab a drink for old time's sake, huh?
00:05:01Maybe you and I could give it another go?
00:05:05Ray, I'm just, I'm kidding.
00:05:07Lighten up, man.
00:05:08Lighten up.
00:05:09Is this a party or a funeral?
00:05:11Leave my girlfriend out of it.
00:05:13I'm gonna need you to handle that.
00:05:15Yeah, man.
00:05:16Yeah.
00:05:17I was just joking.
00:05:18Come on, man, I'm getting married tomorrow.
00:05:20Yeah, well, some things aren't funny, man.
00:05:22You know what's not funny?
00:05:24You ruined my watch.
00:05:25You don't see me complaining about that, okay?
00:05:28Oh, yeah, as you keep telling us, it's a Rolex.
00:05:30Well, what's a little champagne gonna do?
00:05:32You know what, I think you've had enough.
00:05:33No, I think it's past your bedtime.
00:05:35Okay, maybe if you hadn't spilled all my dad's champagne on your watch,
00:05:38you'd still have a functioning Rolex.
00:05:39What's your problem?
00:05:40With you?
00:05:41I don't know.
00:05:42You're entitled, spoiled, narcissistic, can't trust.
00:05:44Oh, those big words from a little man.
00:05:47You know what?
00:05:48Maybe you should sell some more of your daddy's flawed software to the town.
00:05:53Is that how you can buy your new Rolex, huh, big guy?
00:05:55Watch your mouth.
00:05:56Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:05:57Knock it off.
00:06:01Think of Jess.
00:06:07Tell him to think of Jess.
00:06:09Relax, all right?
00:06:14Hey, hey.
00:06:16Go home and sleep it off.
00:06:19You don't want to do this.
00:06:32Ugh, let's go make some coffee.
00:06:34I'll go make some coffee.
00:06:36500 unlucky white chocolate pearls need to be refashioned.
00:06:41Hey, come with me, I'll get you some ice.
00:06:43Thanks.
00:06:44Yeah.
00:06:45Should have gone home earlier.
00:06:53Goldie.
00:06:54Hmm?
00:06:55Have you seen Sterling?
00:06:57He's gone and not answering his phone.
00:07:05Yes.
00:07:13Oh, God.
00:07:26Hey, Quinn.
00:07:30Detective.
00:07:31Detective.
00:07:34Where's Jess?
00:07:35I can't find her.
00:07:36But I notified next to Ken, Sterling's parents.
00:07:38Send a squad car to her hotel room.
00:07:40We need to find her right now, Mason.
00:07:41I'll call Jess' mom, okay?
00:07:43Goldie and Marla are upstairs.
00:07:45Okay.
00:07:52Hey, ladies.
00:07:53Hey.
00:07:55You okay?
00:07:57You know where Jess is?
00:07:59No.
00:08:01I hope she's okay.
00:08:02Detective.
00:08:03Yes?
00:08:05Uh, sorry, boss.
00:08:08What you got?
00:08:09Nothing conclusive, but looks like blunt force trauma to his right temporal region.
00:08:14I won't know more until I do the autopsy.
00:08:16TOD?
00:08:17I'd estimate time of death within the last few hours.
00:08:20What's this?
00:08:22Some sort of rash.
00:08:23Forensic swabbed it.
00:08:24Strange, it's only on his right hand.
00:08:27Yeah.
00:08:28Did you find a cell phone?
00:08:29They're searching the perimeter.
00:08:39Impact blood spatter.
00:08:41What you thinking, boss?
00:08:43I don't know, detective.
00:08:45What do you think I'm thinking?
00:08:47You want me to...
00:08:50Um...
00:08:51Medium velocity.
00:08:52Forward spatter.
00:08:54If the victim died from blunt force trauma, this may be our murder weapon.
00:08:57Very good.
00:09:00If it was foul play, don't jump to any conclusions.
00:09:04We still need to get statements, DNA swabs, and fingerprints.
00:09:07Okay.
00:09:13Ray, this is Detective Kildea.
00:09:16Mason.
00:09:21You okay?
00:09:22Yeah.
00:09:23Well, you can have a seat, Ray.
00:09:25Sure.
00:09:30So, when was the last time you saw Sterling?
00:09:35This morning, around nine.
00:09:38He stepped outside for a few minutes, but he never came back.
00:09:43Did he say he was meeting with anybody?
00:09:45No, we were ready to go to the church.
00:09:47I tried texting and calling, but he never responded.
00:09:50Have you seen or heard from Jess?
00:09:53No, not since last night.
00:09:56I was in the kitchen all morning prepping hors d'oeuvres.
00:09:58Nothing was off on my end.
00:10:01Well, from my end, something was off.
00:10:03I passed through the lobby, and that's when I found Sterling.
00:10:06And Ray checked for a pulse.
00:10:08We tried CPR, but, um...
00:10:12nothing worked.
00:10:13What time was that?
00:10:1410.30.
00:10:15Were the doors locked?
00:10:16Yes.
00:10:17No, Goldie had already opened them.
00:10:19Deliveries were coming in and out.
00:10:21I'll need a list of those vendors.
00:10:22What was Sterling's mood like the last time you saw him?
00:10:25Combative.
00:10:27He was in a great mood.
00:10:29He wasn't in a great mood.
00:10:31How'd you get that black eye?
00:10:33I tripped and fell.
00:10:34Hit my face right on the doorknob.
00:10:37Uh-huh.
00:10:39Did Sterling have any enemies?
00:10:41Everyone loved Sterling.
00:10:42Everyone hated Sterling.
00:10:43I liked Sterling.
00:10:45Anne didn't like Sterling.
00:10:47Call if you remember anything else.
00:10:50Is it just me, or are these people contradicting each other?
00:10:52Eyewitness testimonies are like slogging through mud.
00:10:54But somewhere in between lies the truth.
00:10:59Uh, boss?
00:11:00They found Sterling's cell a hundred yards from here.
00:11:02Jessamine's purse, key fob, and car keys were in her hotel room,
00:11:06signs of a struggle.
00:11:09No cell phone.
00:11:10No Jess.
00:11:12Tell them to seal off Jess's hotel room.
00:11:15Nobody goes in.
00:11:22No.
00:11:53Hey.
00:11:54Thank goodness you're here.
00:11:56Jess is missing.
00:11:57What is going on?
00:11:58We're gonna find her.
00:11:59Is it true?
00:12:00Is Sterling really dead?
00:12:04I'm afraid so.
00:12:05Yes.
00:12:07Who would want to do this to Sterling?
00:12:10And Jessamine?
00:12:11I don't...
00:12:13When did you last see Jess?
00:12:15This morning.
00:12:16We were all taking photos and drinking mimosas.
00:12:19She said she needed a moment and wanted us all out of her hotel room,
00:12:23so we gave her space.
00:12:25You know how she gets sometimes.
00:12:27What time was that?
00:12:28I don't know, eight-ish?
00:12:30Maybe?
00:12:31I started getting worried because when it was time to leave,
00:12:33she wasn't answering her calls.
00:12:34Yeah, Anne stayed here and I drove around looking for her.
00:12:40Where's Lawrence?
00:12:41He went home.
00:12:42Earlier he wasn't feeling well.
00:12:44Is there someplace Jessamine could have gone?
00:12:46She wasn't getting cold feet, was she?
00:12:48No.
00:12:50She loves Sterling.
00:12:52I mean, Jess has been known to take off.
00:12:56Remember Bali?
00:12:57She went there for two weeks without telling anyone.
00:12:59No, no, no.
00:13:00Just because.
00:13:01This is different.
00:13:02This is her wedding day.
00:13:05Lawrence.
00:13:08What about Jess? Any news?
00:13:09No.
00:13:10We have to treat Jess as a missing person.
00:13:19What is it?
00:13:21Find something?
00:13:22How do they fold a towel to look like a swan?
00:13:26Doesn't make sense.
00:13:27Mason?
00:13:29Focus.
00:13:30Sorry.
00:13:31Crime scene.
00:13:41Money and credit cards intact.
00:13:42It's definitely not a robbery.
00:13:43Boss, do you think it's possible?
00:13:45I'm not saying your ex is a cold-blooded killer or anything.
00:13:48But could Jessamine have done it and skipped town?
00:13:51Not a chance.
00:13:53She never left that Chanel purse behind.
00:13:59There's only one candle holder.
00:14:01It's a pair he's missing.
00:14:02Well, let's keep our eyes peeled for the other one.
00:14:04What else is off in Miss Quill's room?
00:14:07Oh, um...
00:14:09It's messy.
00:14:10It's messy.
00:14:11It's messy.
00:14:12Oh, um...
00:14:14It's messy.
00:14:16For a lady.
00:14:17You don't know Jessamine.
00:14:18Aside from that,
00:14:20her clothes are all here,
00:14:21but there's no suitcase.
00:14:31Hi, welcome.
00:14:32How you doing?
00:14:34I don't, uh...
00:14:35I don't get it.
00:14:36Is this a floral shop or a coffee shop?
00:14:39It's both.
00:14:40Both.
00:14:41Do you sell tires and skidoos, too?
00:14:43No.
00:14:44But you can find an abundance of sass, spunk, and shell shock.
00:14:49Sorry.
00:14:50It's been a long and trying day.
00:14:53What can I get you?
00:14:54Just a black coffee.
00:14:56Thanks.
00:14:58You, uh, sure you don't want to try one of our specials?
00:15:01It's all a bit, uh, exotic for my taste.
00:15:05I mean, the grilled cheese sounds okay,
00:15:07but why are you going to mess it up with truffle creminis,
00:15:10whatever those are?
00:15:11Creminis?
00:15:12Uh, they're mushrooms,
00:15:13and they are full of antioxidants.
00:15:16It's a pass on whatever those are, too.
00:15:18Just the coffee's good.
00:15:19Okay. Enjoy.
00:15:21Oh.
00:15:22Oh, you're good. Keep it.
00:15:25Oh, Marla.
00:15:26It's your lucky day.
00:15:27You can finally get those Gucci heels you wanted.
00:15:30It looks taller than I thought it would be.
00:15:32Yeah.
00:15:34Let me give you a boost.
00:15:36Why can't I give you a boost?
00:15:38I've been working out.
00:15:39You think I'm going in there?
00:15:42No.
00:15:43Don't argue, Mason. Come on.
00:15:44Get on my knee.
00:15:45Fine.
00:15:47Is that okay?
00:15:48Yeah. Knee on my shoulder.
00:15:49Yeah, there we go.
00:15:51What?
00:15:52Don't you have a breakfast?
00:15:53Oh, I'm sorry.
00:15:54I'm sorry.
00:15:55I'm sorry.
00:15:56I'm sorry.
00:15:57Don't you have a breakfast?
00:15:58Oh, my mom made me an omelet,
00:16:00but she ran out of hash browns.
00:16:01Use your rhetorical question, Mason.
00:16:06Oh.
00:16:07It's disgusting in here.
00:16:10Just stay focused.
00:16:11Dig.
00:16:12Oh.
00:16:13Wait, I see something.
00:16:15I got it.
00:16:18And look.
00:16:19There's blood and hair.
00:16:23Try to curb your enthusiasm that my ex might be dead.
00:16:27Okay.
00:16:38I hate to say it, but he had it coming.
00:16:40Sterling waltzes into town,
00:16:42butter doesn't melt in his mouth,
00:16:44catering swanky dinners with ice sculptures and fountains,
00:16:47and my dad has to fork the bill.
00:16:48Again.
00:16:50Trust me, I am not losing sleep over either of those two freeloaders.
00:16:54Hi.
00:16:55I gotta go.
00:16:56Hi.
00:16:57I'm sorry, is this a bad time?
00:16:58No, no, not at all.
00:16:59Okay.
00:17:00Thank you so much for bringing the wedding cake.
00:17:02Yes, of course.
00:17:03Would have been a shame for it to go to waste.
00:17:05Well, the Hoops for Teens Foundation is grateful.
00:17:07We've had to shut down the programs for two weeks while the gym was being repaired,
00:17:10but the kids are back tonight, they're gonna enjoy the meal.
00:17:13You're really making a difference.
00:17:15Trying to.
00:17:27I'll talk to Quinn about the autopsy report.
00:17:29You look into the hotel footage, but first,
00:17:31bring the can, I'll hold it for forensics,
00:17:33even with a rush order, it could take a couple days.
00:17:35Well, it's still backlogged, huh?
00:17:36Shelton.
00:17:39Track.
00:17:41What are you doing here?
00:17:42Nice to see you, too.
00:17:44I've been, uh, transferred.
00:17:47Temporary assignment.
00:17:51Mason, this is Detective Dave Track from Third Precinct.
00:17:54Track, this is Detective Mason Kildea.
00:17:56Look at us, three seasoned detectives all in the same room.
00:17:59Yeah, I'd say two seasoned and one bland,
00:18:02but I'll let you geniuses figure out which one's which.
00:18:04Yeah, Tom's the best.
00:18:06He's taught me everything I know.
00:18:07I'm sorry to hear that.
00:18:09Tom, by the book, Schultz.
00:18:11No, that's better than Dave.
00:18:12Bend the rules, Track.
00:18:15Why are you here?
00:18:16Well, I mean, it seems that I'm in and you're out.
00:18:21You're officially out.
00:18:22You're out.
00:18:23You're officially on desk duty, Tom,
00:18:25so I'm gonna need the case files for Coyle and Bridgewater.
00:18:28What?
00:18:29The missing bride and dead groom.
00:18:32Yeah, I know who Coyle and Bridgewater are.
00:18:34Why am I off their cases?
00:18:36Conflict of interest?
00:18:38I mean, you're missing ex-wife,
00:18:41plus your association with the deceased.
00:18:45There's no way I'm compromised.
00:18:46Sheriff says otherwise.
00:18:48Sheriff?
00:18:52I bet you couldn't wait to come in here and tell me this.
00:18:55It's always the high-profile cases with you, huh?
00:18:57Beats traffic duty.
00:19:01Mason, give Track the case files.
00:19:03Bring him up to speed.
00:19:06Oh, honey, I'm so glad stop-all went well.
00:19:10Your backpack?
00:19:13I don't know, but I can check the car.
00:19:16Okay, hold on.
00:19:18Let me see.
00:19:21Oh, yeah, it is right here.
00:19:24Do you want me to leave it with Dad?
00:19:27Okay, I'll drop it off at X-Ray.
00:19:30The hotel fob says Jess has been entering her room at 10.40 a.m.
00:19:33Is there security footage?
00:19:35Mostly at the front, with a couple of blind spots at the side exits.
00:19:38So we never actually see Jess coming or going.
00:19:41She could have left on her own or been abducted.
00:19:45We also got an anonymous tip alibi.
00:19:50Anonymous, huh?
00:19:52Yeah, it was anonymous.
00:20:20Oh, Chester.
00:20:41Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.
00:20:43I saw you in X-Ray, but you're walking away so fast.
00:20:45Yeah, basements and hospitals aren't my favorite.
00:20:50What are you doing in X-Ray?
00:20:52Is it about the bruise?
00:20:54My ego is more bruised than this eye.
00:20:56But I got the all clear, it's not a concussion.
00:20:58Well, that's good.
00:21:00What did happen?
00:21:03Just a heated basketball game.
00:21:08Serves me right for trying to show up a bunch of teens.
00:21:11The morning of the wedding?
00:21:13That's brave.
00:21:15It was an early game.
00:21:17I coach underserved kids basketball.
00:21:20I didn't know that.
00:21:22Yeah, Hoops for Teens.
00:21:24Jessamyn signed me up.
00:21:26She said it would be a good image for our brand, but it's fun.
00:21:31I could have sworn Hunter said that the program was shut down for two weeks.
00:21:40Hey.
00:21:42What's up?
00:21:44Mason just ran into Chester.
00:21:46And you need to recheck his alibi.
00:21:48I think he's lying about how he got that eye.
00:21:50I wish I could.
00:21:52I'm off the case.
00:21:53What?
00:21:54Conflict of interest.
00:21:56I'm pushing paper now.
00:21:58Then who's running the case? Mason?
00:22:00No, they brought in an outside detective.
00:22:02This guy, Dave Track.
00:22:05You say his name like you know him.
00:22:07There's history there.
00:22:09He's done some shady things to solve crimes.
00:22:11Why would they bring someone like that in?
00:22:13You're in my control.
00:22:15I'm sorry.
00:22:16Look, whoever killed Sterling is also responsible for Jess's disappearance.
00:22:21The first 48 hours are crucial.
00:22:24Okay, so what can I do? How can I help?
00:22:29Break into Quinn's office and steal the autopsy report?
00:22:37What?
00:22:39No.
00:22:41I was kidding. You can't do that.
00:22:43Listen, I know you have to say what you have to say, but like, we...
00:22:46I got it. I got you.
00:22:48You can't.
00:22:49I hear you. Don't worry about it. It's going to be fine.
00:23:07Hey, Mason.
00:23:09Hey, Goldie.
00:23:10Are those snickerdoodle muffins?
00:23:12Those are, like, my favorite.
00:23:14Really? I didn't know that.
00:23:16Well, I was bringing them to the precinct, but here, help yourself.
00:23:20If you don't mind.
00:23:21Yeah.
00:23:26They're so good.
00:23:27Aw, thank you.
00:23:29You must be so busy with both cases.
00:23:31Yeah.
00:23:32Yeah.
00:23:33But I can't really talk about it, you know.
00:23:35Of course.
00:23:37I just can't stop thinking about Sterling and what happened and just the pain that he must have been in.
00:23:45I mean, he had blunt force trauma to the head, but Quinn found champagne in his lungs.
00:23:50Drowning's not as painful as you think.
00:23:52Sure, the champagne burns a bit, but then Sterling probably drifted off to sleep.
00:23:55So, you know, if it helps, I hear it's a peaceful way to go.
00:23:58So, cause of death was drowning.
00:24:04Boy, what's in these snickerdoodle muffins?
00:24:06Cheer serum?
00:24:08Gotta go.
00:24:10Oh, Mason.
00:24:12Oh.
00:24:15Thanks.
00:24:16Bye, Mason.
00:24:17Bye, Goldie.
00:24:32Here you go.
00:24:35Um, CCTV cameras around town showed no sign of chess, but the forensics came back on the candle holder.
00:24:41It's a matched adjustment to DNA.
00:24:43Thing is, there are multiple prints from the wedding party, plus a few partials, but they're too smeared to ID.
00:24:48No hits in CODIS.
00:24:50So whoever ditched the candle holder is likely our murderer.
00:24:53They're either very sloppy or brilliant.
00:24:57With all the prints, we would be just spinning our wheels going nowhere, and they know it.
00:25:02Whose idea was it to search the dumpsters outside the hotel?
00:25:05Tom's, but...
00:25:06There's also Tom's DNA on the victim's shoe, right?
00:25:08Yeah, but the...
00:25:09And guess who's the beneficiary of Jessamine's life insurance policy?
00:25:14I hate to say it, but it looks like we have a new person of interest.
00:25:25Oh, exactly.
00:25:26When does that happen?
00:25:27Hi! Can I help you ladies with anything?
00:25:29Just looking for now. Thanks.
00:25:31It honestly is so weird.
00:25:32I know. The lab results were so random, but I saw Quinn emptying the stomach contents myself.
00:25:38Newly dead on his wedding day. Poor guy.
00:25:40He had a swollen tongue, contact dermatitis on his hand, but no food in his stomach? It's plain weird.
00:25:46Hey, how about this? Your mom loves lilies.
00:25:49Do this one.
00:25:52And...
00:25:54I had to.
00:25:56Does it ever stop?
00:25:58No. No!
00:26:01Well, thank you for feeding me. You know, you didn't have to.
00:26:06Have you met me?
00:26:08Yeah, your food's good, but your company's even better.
00:26:14Goes both ways.
00:26:18How are you, um, holding up?
00:26:20I mean, I know you and Jess aren't together anymore, but still, this has to be hard.
00:26:26I might not be in love with Jess still, but I just don't want anything bad to happen to her, you know?
00:26:30Of course not. No one does.
00:26:35I feel stuck now that I'm desked. I feel lost without my murder board.
00:26:51What?
00:26:52What?
00:26:54Not again. Goldie...
00:26:57Okay, listen, don't do that, alright?
00:27:10I, uh, you know, printed out the pictures of the bridal party and used Marla's leftover flowers,
00:27:16and then they threw the seating chart out, so I took that and, well, those are just pretty,
00:27:21and I, uh, you know, made a, um, murder board. Yeah.
00:27:27Well, it's certainly the prettiest murder board I've ever seen.
00:27:31Thank you. You're not gonna lecture me, are you?
00:27:35I think it's downright brilliant.
00:27:38Well, in that case...
00:27:47Okay. Blunt force trauma. Cause of death? Drowning?
00:27:55Wait, are you just guessing?
00:27:58It's a little more than a hunch. Um, allergic reaction, that's a question mark.
00:28:03How did you get your hands on the autopsy report?
00:28:05Nothing illegal. Um, stomach was empty.
00:28:09Goldie, you're something else.
00:28:12Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
00:28:14It's definitely a good thing.
00:28:19Okay, so, Hunter was saying something about selling bad software. You know anything about that?
00:28:25Oh, yeah. Well, when Sterling's family moved here from New York,
00:28:29his dad convinced a lot of people to fund a startup whose software was supposed to be fail-safe.
00:28:35Well, they didn't read the fine print, and he wanted it that way,
00:28:39because in the end, his bad software caused, well, pretty much everybody to lose their money.
00:28:44The only people that made money was Sterling's family, who then skipped town.
00:28:47Wait, that was years ago. Sterling was just a teenager. It was his father that scammed them, not Sterling.
00:28:52It's Elk Park. It's a small town. I mean, did people remember these things?
00:28:57Yeah. Revenge is a timeless motive for murder.
00:29:00I wonder which families were affected.
00:29:03Good question.
00:29:04One second.
00:29:06No.
00:29:08Hi, ma'am. I'm Detective Track. Sorry to intrude.
00:29:12Hi, Goldie. Marla said Tom would be here.
00:29:14She did, did she?
00:29:18Mason? Track? What's up?
00:29:21Tom, in light of new evidence, we need to hand in your badge and gun and come with us.
00:29:26My badge? What new evidence? What do you mean?
00:29:29Yeah, what evidence? And also, you are clearly making a mistake here.
00:29:33Furthermore, I don't like how you're going around town...
00:29:35Goldie, it's okay. It's okay. It's okay. I'm coming.
00:29:43Hey.
00:29:45Go to City Hall. Search land registry records for foreclosures around the time of the scam.
00:29:49Okay.
00:29:52Stay safe.
00:29:53Let's go, Schultz.
00:29:54Yeah. I'm coming.
00:29:56Sorry, boss.
00:30:04♪♪♪
00:30:26Piece of cake, Orenberry.
00:30:29Oh.
00:30:35All right. Maybe not a piece of cake.
00:30:58♪♪♪
00:31:13Yes!
00:31:14♪♪♪
00:31:24♪♪♪
00:31:34♪♪♪
00:31:44♪♪♪
00:31:54♪♪♪
00:32:04♪♪♪
00:32:13Anne lost her house?
00:32:15♪♪♪
00:32:20The evidence points to you. Motive, opportunity, intent.
00:32:25Confess, and maybe you'll get leniency on sentencing.
00:32:35Jess called you in the morning. She disappeared at 10.03. Why?
00:32:39I told you.
00:32:41She left the voicemail. I called her back and she didn't answer.
00:32:44Is it normal for a bride to call her ex the morning of her wedding?
00:32:47Nothing about Jess is normal.
00:32:50What's your angle?
00:32:51Tom, kill Sterling when Jess is gone, collect her life insurance?
00:32:55Or is it that she's waiting for you and that this was her plan with her all along?
00:32:58That's your theory?
00:33:00It's absurd.
00:33:02Mason, you still looking for her?
00:33:06Okay. We're gonna play this my way.
00:33:11I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, huh?
00:33:14Who knows? Maybe you and your old man will be cellmates.
00:33:20It's been, what, 25 years?
00:33:2324. But who's counting?
00:33:25Where's Jessamyn?
00:33:26Sterling cut my hand.
00:33:28So yeah, there'd be blood transfer on my shoe as well as the champagne glass.
00:33:33As for the life insurance policy, Jess obviously forgot to change the beneficiary.
00:33:38You know, the DA hasn't filed charges yet, which means your case has too many holes.
00:33:45So unless you arrest me, you can't keep me here any longer.
00:33:51So I'm leaving.
00:33:54What?
00:33:55What?
00:34:03Don't leave town.
00:34:08It wasn't right.
00:34:10Turning off an audio recorder during an interview?
00:34:13You never get far if you play by the rules.
00:34:15Evidence gathered deceitfully is inadmissible in court.
00:34:18God, wake up. Judging by that deer caught in the headlight slug, you didn't even know Tom's dad was in Slammer.
00:34:24That's just, that's just my normal look.
00:34:27Look, I'm just saying maybe you don't really know your mentor that well.
00:34:33I'm gonna need you to tail him.
00:34:41Room service.
00:34:43Goldie, what a nice surprise.
00:34:45Ah, I have a question.
00:34:48Would you think less of me as a mother if I had you surgically attach this to our daughter's back?
00:34:55She gets her absentmindedness from me. I'm sorry I muddled the gene pool.
00:35:00Are those Eclairs?
00:35:03Okay, what do you need?
00:35:04Who said I needed anything?
00:35:06Goldie, we've known each other for a very, very long time.
00:35:10I love hate that about us.
00:35:13Tom got suspended.
00:35:15What? What happened?
00:35:17There's this new cop, and he is trying to pin Sterling's murder on Tom.
00:35:22Wow.
00:35:23And he would never, ever, ever, ever ask, but he really needs our help.
00:35:39You know, Goldie, I would really love to help Tom. You know I would.
00:35:47But I can't tell you anything about someone from the wedding party who came to my office Saturday afternoon with a broken hand and a really lame excuse on how that happened.
00:35:58Mm-hmm.
00:35:59See, I could lose my license.
00:36:01Of course.
00:36:02Yeah.
00:36:03Yeah.
00:36:04So I'm just gonna go look for a coffee to pair with my Eclair.
00:36:08Okay.
00:36:09Yeah, I might be ten, maybe fifteen minutes.
00:36:17Okay.
00:36:29Ray.
00:36:34Oh, hey.
00:36:35Hey.
00:36:36Are you cleared?
00:36:37Yeah, no. No, not yet.
00:36:39Thanks for coming to get me.
00:36:40Yeah, I was so worried.
00:36:43Maybe you should keep your distance.
00:36:46Stop. Don't even do that. No, nobody believes that you had anything to do with this.
00:36:51It's not that. It's something Track said about my dad.
00:36:56What about him?
00:37:01I haven't shared this with anyone, but my dad's in prison.
00:37:13See, that's the look. That's why I don't talk about it.
00:37:15I'm sorry. I, um, I have a lot of questions.
00:37:23But first, how does Track even know about this?
00:37:29It was his dad that put my dad away.
00:37:33And you're afraid he's gonna use that information against you.
00:37:37Look, I just, I wanted you to know before anybody else.
00:37:43I'm sorry.
00:37:45Thanks.
00:37:46You are not your dad.
00:37:49And whatever you did, it doesn't change who you are.
00:37:52Or what you mean to me.
00:37:57Or, you know, people, other people.
00:38:02And hey, welcome to the club.
00:38:05Everyone in Elk Park has been a suspect for murder at some point in this past year, including me.
00:38:11And you're still talking to me.
00:38:13Well, the night's still young.
00:38:17Let's go get your car.
00:38:26So, Ray showed up the morning of the wedding with a busted hand.
00:38:30But he didn't have a cast. He flinched when Mason shook his hand.
00:38:33Which begs the question, when exactly did Ray do it, and how?
00:38:37Well, I'm headed to the ground search right now, and Ray will be there.
00:38:41So why don't you go home, and then you come back later, and we can put our heads together.
00:38:48Okay.
00:39:03Look out, coming through.
00:39:07That's Ray's wedding.
00:39:08Calm down, come on.
00:39:09You need to listen to me, Ray.
00:39:13Ray, I...
00:39:20Here, you and I will go up here.
00:39:26Remember these woods?
00:39:28We'd come here, me with Sterling, you with that freckly ginger.
00:39:32Are you ready?
00:39:33Oh my gosh, yes. Such innocent and happy times.
00:39:38Until it wasn't.
00:39:41I couldn't help but notice you and Ray earlier.
00:39:45Is everything okay?
00:39:47I found an engagement ring in a suitcase.
00:39:51And when I asked about it, Ray admitted he was going to propose this weekend.
00:39:57That's wonderful.
00:40:00But I said I'm not ready.
00:40:02But he didn't buy it. He thinks there's something more.
00:40:06Is there?
00:40:07No, no. Timing is everything, and with all this going on...
00:40:15Well, relationships are hard, even on their good days.
00:40:19You'll get through it.
00:40:21Yeah. He's my person, but Ray can be insecure.
00:40:27Yeah, Sterling's ribbing at the rehearsal dinner about getting back together with me didn't help.
00:40:32Anyway, it's like Ray and I always say, there's nothing more important than love.
00:40:37Never take it for granted, because it can be too late.
00:40:42I'll never love again.
00:40:44Of course you will.
00:40:46No. I'll never love again. It's a book.
00:40:51Wait, Jess was reading that. I lent it to her.
00:40:55Don't touch anything, flag it, and I'll grab a cup.
00:41:08Oh, that's Jess's cell.
00:41:10She loved her Zurovsky crystals.
00:41:12Loved?
00:41:14You referred to her in the past tense.
00:41:16You know what I mean.
00:41:19Why would I ever want anything to happen to her?
00:41:22You'd get sole possession of Whitetail Realty, for one.
00:41:24With her gone, my workload has just doubled.
00:41:26I have to take on all of her clients.
00:41:28And we all know you weren't a fan of Jess or Sterling.
00:41:30I have nothing against them. We just had different priorities.
00:41:32And I'm tired of them taking my dad for a ride.
00:41:34Hey, will you just stop it, the both of you?
00:41:36Can't you see what you're doing to my wife?
00:41:40My apologies.
00:41:41So are you.
00:41:47God, this is just so distressing.
00:41:49What can I do to help?
00:41:52Um, we're holding a candlelight vigil outside our home this evening.
00:41:57Do you think you could do a rush order on some finger foods?
00:42:00Just whatever you can move.
00:42:01Of course. I'll drop them off later.
00:42:05I'm a mess.
00:42:07Where's my, where's my Jess? I mean, where could she be?
00:42:10You'll find her. You'll find her.
00:42:22No.
00:42:34Hi, Goldie.
00:42:35Hi.
00:42:36Your food was a huge hit with the kids. Thanks again.
00:42:39And, um, I'm sorry about earlier at the park with Chester.
00:42:42I, uh, got carried away.
00:42:44You don't need to apologize to me. I understand.
00:42:48Emotions are running high right now.
00:42:50Yeah. Feels like it's been one non-stop fight since the wedding came to town.
00:42:54First the one at the reception, then the one in the parking lot after.
00:42:57What, what happened in the parking lot?
00:43:00Well, I only caught the tail end of it, but Chester and Sterling were at it again.
00:43:05And obviously Chester didn't come out of it too well.
00:43:09See ya.
00:43:10Yeah.
00:43:15Hey, one doppio double espresso macchiato.
00:43:21Let's get to work.
00:43:22Yes. I've been working on Anne's rushed order.
00:43:26Oh, hold on.
00:43:29Hey, Marla.
00:43:30He's right outside my shop.
00:43:33Who's right outside your shop?
00:43:35Ray! You said you wanted to talk to him. If you hurry up, you can catch him.
00:43:39Just be careful, because Mason and Draco are here.
00:43:41Okay. Thank you.
00:43:43What's up?
00:43:44Ray is outside Marla's shop.
00:43:46Well, let's go talk to him.
00:43:47You can't be seen interrogating Ray.
00:43:50And I can't leave my dough where the baking powder will go flat.
00:43:57I have a crazy idea.
00:44:05Okay, you want to preheat the oven to 350.
00:44:08You're going to roll the dough evenly.
00:44:10Then you're going to add a teaspoon of the filling.
00:44:14First the cheese, then the mushroom mixture.
00:44:17You want to pinch the edges of the dumpling,
00:44:19and then brush each dumpling with the egg wash.
00:44:22Then you bake.
00:44:24Are you good?
00:44:25You lost me after preheating the oven.
00:44:28You'll be fine. Just don't overwork the dough.
00:44:33But you know, that goes for you too, okay?
00:44:35Don't press Ray too hard or he's going to clam up.
00:44:37Okay.
00:44:38Find out how he broke his hand, but act natural.
00:44:41Act natural.
00:44:43Got it.
00:44:44Got it.
00:44:45All right, I see him.
00:44:49Switching to Bluetooth.
00:44:51Okay.
00:44:52Well, there's the $300 charge on my credit card that I never authorized.
00:44:55I'd like the charges reversed, please.
00:44:58Car key replacement?
00:44:59What are you talking about?
00:45:01The contract never said that.
00:45:04Fine.
00:45:06Stupid car rental agencies.
00:45:08Sheesh.
00:45:10Ray!
00:45:11Hi!
00:45:12So funny meeting you here.
00:45:14Hey, Goldie.
00:45:15I said act natural.
00:45:17Whoa, you're cast.
00:45:19How did that happen?
00:45:20Easy, Barry.
00:45:21It's too heavy-handed.
00:45:23I'm trying.
00:45:25You're trying?
00:45:27Focus, Goldie.
00:45:29Trying to understand what happened to your hand.
00:45:35You look like you got yourself in a pickle.
00:45:37A pickle?
00:45:38It's nothing.
00:45:39I just fell in the shower.
00:45:42Wow, it just must have been a really hard fall.
00:45:48You lost him, Barry.
00:45:50You did it.
00:45:51You overworked the dough.
00:45:53I cannot do this with you in my ear, okay?
00:45:56Just don't burn my pastry, Schultz.
00:46:01Barry.
00:46:03Goldie?
00:46:06You know what?
00:46:07Let me help you.
00:46:10Of course.
00:46:14Oh, got some orange smudge on your cast.
00:46:17Oh, yeah.
00:46:18It was these cheesy crackers Ann was giving everyone.
00:46:21We were all snacking on them.
00:46:23Cassa.
00:46:24Cassava.
00:46:26They get everywhere.
00:46:28Yeah.
00:46:29Probably not a good idea to have everyone sign my cast afterwards.
00:46:31Hmm.
00:46:37We missed you at the Crown Search.
00:46:41Yeah, I just needed some time alone.
00:46:45I can't believe he's gone.
00:46:47Some best man I turned out to be.
00:46:52Ray, this was not your fault.
00:46:55Yeah.
00:46:57I'm so sorry.
00:46:58I know he was your best friend.
00:47:01You know, I always envied Sterling.
00:47:03Thought he had it all.
00:47:05And the night before the wedding,
00:47:07he was getting cold feet.
00:47:10I think he had his mind made up by then.
00:47:13So, what did he do?
00:47:16He went out for air after midnight.
00:47:19Next thing I know, it's morning and he's in full tux ready to go to the church.
00:47:24Someone or something changed his mind.
00:47:32Well, it's not a perfect dumpling.
00:47:38Not exactly sure what it is.
00:47:41Um, I'll add parsley.
00:47:44Yeah.
00:47:45Okay.
00:47:46Yeah.
00:47:47Thanks for hanging out with me, by the way.
00:47:49You were distracting me.
00:47:50You were going rogue.
00:47:51You want to talk about somebody going rogue?
00:47:53Stick to our day jobs.
00:47:54Deal.
00:47:55Okay.
00:47:56I think we're going to need something more than parsley.
00:48:01Did he get cold feet?
00:48:06Mm-hmm.
00:48:07Got the candle holder right here.
00:48:09Mm-hmm.
00:48:12You still have some flour on your face.
00:48:14Hold on, Neil.
00:48:16Thanks.
00:48:17Yeah.
00:48:22Um.
00:48:24Ray was jealous.
00:48:26Yeah.
00:48:27Yeah.
00:48:28Missing, um, suitcase.
00:48:32We need to find out what caused Sterling's allergic reaction.
00:48:35I think we should.
00:48:36Yeah.
00:48:37Yeah.
00:48:38Yeah.
00:48:39Yeah.
00:48:40Yeah.
00:48:41Yeah.
00:48:42Yeah.
00:48:43Yeah.
00:48:44What caused his allergic reaction?
00:48:45I did find an orange substance in the back of Sterling's hand.
00:48:48Orange?
00:48:49Yeah.
00:48:50Are you sure?
00:48:51Positive.
00:48:52Because Ray had an orange substance on his cast.
00:48:53He said it was from eating cassava crackers.
00:48:55But cassava, it tastes nutty, but it's not from the nut family at all.
00:49:02We need to talk to Chester.
00:49:04Yeah, let's see what he's up to.
00:49:08Orange powder.
00:49:10Wow.
00:49:11Chester's realty business is booming.
00:49:15Yeah?
00:49:16Someone's making a killing in commissions this month.
00:49:23Want to go have something?
00:49:25Always.
00:49:27Let's go.
00:49:41Nice house.
00:49:42Yeah.
00:49:43Above my pay grade.
00:49:44Same.
00:49:50Well, let's take a look around.
00:49:52We'll be back here in 20.
00:49:53Okay.
00:49:56You go that way, I'll go this way.
00:49:57Okay, I'll go this way then.
00:49:58As you can see, there's a spectacular chef's kitchen.
00:50:01Newly renovated with slide-out shelves.
00:50:05I'll let you folks walk around, though.
00:50:06Let me know if you have any questions, okay?
00:50:09What a nice surprise.
00:50:10I can see you working your magic in here.
00:50:12Oh, well, unless that magic increases my bank account, I think I'm going to have to stay put.
00:50:19So what brings you by?
00:50:23We're friends, right?
00:50:24Of course.
00:50:26I just needed to ask.
00:50:29Why didn't you come clean about Sterling hitting you?
00:50:33Because he didn't.
00:50:34Because he didn't?
00:50:37Chester, I know you didn't get the black eye playing basketball like you said.
00:50:45Sterling didn't hit me, Goldie.
00:50:48He was fighting with Ray in the parking lot after the rehearsal dinner ended.
00:50:51And when the groomsmen and I went in to break them up, my eye hit Ray's fist.
00:50:57Sorry I lied.
00:50:58I didn't want to look suspicious.
00:51:00Why was Sterling fighting his best man again?
00:51:03I'm sorry, Goldie. I have to work.
00:51:08I want to find Jess, too.
00:51:10But what about Hoops for Teens?
00:51:11If you're willing to spend that much on Jess's over-the-top wedding, then why not put it towards something more meaningful?
00:51:16Now is not the time or place.
00:51:18When is the time, Dad?
00:51:21I have done everything you asked.
00:51:23And kept it quiet all these years.
00:51:26What's up, fellas?
00:51:28You kept what quiet?
00:51:30I wouldn't have thought this type of house would interest you, Tom.
00:51:34Well, lots of things interest me.
00:51:37What are you doing here?
00:51:39I happen to own this house.
00:51:41This was supposed to be Jess's listing, but Chester has it now.
00:51:45Well, why does it say it's under Westco property?
00:51:49Yes, it's one of my holding companies. Is that a problem?
00:51:52It's not a problem. I'm just wondering what the big secret is.
00:51:56Did you happen to be involved in the failed software company?
00:52:01This is sounding like a police interrogation.
00:52:04You don't have your badge, do you?
00:52:06It's just a friendly observation.
00:52:08Well, I think it's time for you to leave.
00:52:12Ah. Okay, well, hey. Good luck with the listing.
00:52:26I still think Chester is hiding something, but at least now we know how and when Ray broke his hand.
00:52:32We just don't know why.
00:52:34Well, in my experience, when two guys fight after a few drinks, it's usually over a woman.
00:52:38We still don't know how Lawrence and Hunter fit into all of this.
00:52:41And also, what is Hunter hiding?
00:52:43Well, I think we're getting close to the truth based on Lawrence's reaction.
00:52:46Do you really think that Lawrence is involved in all of this?
00:52:50I think that if he was an investor, he sure didn't lose his shirt like everybody else.
00:52:54We need to get our hands on the police records.
00:52:56Yeah.
00:52:57Yeah.
00:52:59What's the one thing that's in abundance at weddings?
00:53:01Puff pastry.
00:53:03Puff? Puff pastries?
00:53:05Photos. Goldie, photos.
00:53:08Oh, photos. That's much better.
00:53:10We need to talk to the photographer.
00:53:12Okay.
00:53:14Beautiful. Yes. Smile. Show me some teeth. Yes.
00:53:18Excuse me. Hi.
00:53:19You.
00:53:21You're early. The station said a detective would swing by later. I'm in the middle of a photo shoot.
00:53:25He is the detective.
00:53:27I'm the detective?
00:53:29Yep.
00:53:31Let's get it over with. I'll pull up the files.
00:53:35Oh, man.
00:53:37Breaks my heart a little to see these.
00:53:39You have to attach yourself in an investigation.
00:53:41Can't let it affect you.
00:53:44Look at this.
00:53:50Hey, hey, hey. Track is here.
00:53:53We gotta hurry.
00:53:57Look, look at this.
00:53:59Oh.
00:54:00Yeah.
00:54:01Is that sweet, gentle, hand-slapping her soon-to-be husband?
00:54:06Yeah.
00:54:08Oh.
00:54:09Yeah.
00:54:10Is that sweet, gentle, hand-slapping her soon-to-be son-in-law the night before he was killed?
00:54:17Get a picture.
00:54:21Come on. Close it up.
00:54:26Thank you very much.
00:54:38Hey, you got Ray. Leave a message.
00:54:41Ray, where are you? We're starting.
00:54:51I hope wherever Jess is, she can feel the love.
00:54:58Let's buy the crackers.
00:54:59Oh, the crackers. Yes.
00:55:00No, now. It is not the time.
00:55:02Yes, now. It's the time.
00:55:04Come on. Come on.
00:55:05And?
00:55:06And?
00:55:09This is the silliest of questions, you know, considering.
00:55:14But where did you get these crackers?
00:55:18I think from Hunter.
00:55:22Maybe the bridal party. I don't remember. Would you like some?
00:55:26That would, yes, that would be great.
00:55:28You know, it's always good to learn about new snacks for parties and…
00:55:32Events.
00:55:33And charcuterie boards.
00:55:34Charcuterie boards and…
00:55:35We were throwing parties. You weren't here again.
00:55:37I am here. I'm at so many parties.
00:55:38I think you'll like these then. They're cassava and cheddar.
00:55:41They're the only things that would settle Lawrence's stomach.
00:55:44I got it. Thank you. Thank you so much.
00:55:50Ed, after the rehearsal dinner you met Sterling in the hotel foyer, what exactly did you say to him?
00:55:58I don't recall. It was a busy day.
00:56:01Oh.
00:56:05I don't mean to make you uncomfortable, but…
00:56:11You slapped him.
00:56:15Timestamp at 12.05am.
00:56:18I think what Tom is trying to say is we would understand if you had resentment towards Sterling's family.
00:56:27I mean, after all, you lost your house.
00:56:31Gosh, no, that's ancient history.
00:56:35I mean, yeah, it was hard.
00:56:37Some people didn't get over it, but many of us did.
00:56:42I mean, yeah, it was hard.
00:56:44Some people didn't get over it, but many of us did.
00:56:48Look at Jess and Katie.
00:56:50Katie?
00:56:51She and Sterling were once engaged.
00:56:54Well, Katie moved on.
00:56:56Her dad never forgave Sterling's family after almost losing his farm for investing in that stupid startup.
00:57:02I'm sorry. I didn't know that Sterling and Katie were engaged.
00:57:08It didn't last long.
00:57:09I mean, Katie broke it off with Sterling after she followed him to San Francisco.
00:57:14I mean, her dad would have never given his blessing, but it all worked out in the end.
00:57:18She met Ray, and my Jess ended up with Sterling.
00:57:23So why were you so mad at Sterling?
00:57:25He said he was going to call off the wedding.
00:57:28And I wouldn't let him do that.
00:57:30So, yes, I lost my temper, but I set him straight because I'll do anything for my daughter. Anything at all.
00:57:37Why didn't you tell us this before?
00:57:40Because it wasn't my finest moment.
00:57:44Anne, I, uh...
00:57:46Wait.
00:57:48What's going on?
00:57:51Anne? What's happening?
00:57:53Did you find Jess?
00:57:54No.
00:57:56What did you do to upset my wife?
00:57:58I've asked her some questions, Lawrence.
00:58:00You know, I've just about had enough out of you.
00:58:03Now, get out of here and stay away from my family.
00:58:05We're gonna go. We are leaving. Come on.
00:58:12Alright, so Lawrence was involved in the startup scam.
00:58:14He gets in a fight with Ray.
00:58:16Chester stands to get Whitetail Realty.
00:58:19And then Hunter stands to inherit.
00:58:22Anne slaps Sterling.
00:58:24And also, she might be responsible for the orange crackers.
00:58:28So what am I looking at?
00:58:29I tried to recreate Anne's crackers.
00:58:31Both she and Ray said that they were cassava, but they're not.
00:58:35So I whipped together three different recipes.
00:58:37I need you to try them, starting with her original.
00:58:43Okay.
00:58:44Now, try the corn flour.
00:58:50It's not that one.
00:58:51Cauliflower?
00:58:56Not it either.
00:58:58Now, try the one in the middle.
00:59:05It's that one?
00:59:06Yeah.
00:59:07That's it?
00:59:08Yeah.
00:59:09What is it?
00:59:10Avocado.
00:59:11Okay, what does that mean?
00:59:12It means someone is lying.
00:59:13They're not cassava crackers.
00:59:14And the interesting thing is that people with tree nut allergies, a lot of them, are severely allergic to avocados.
00:59:20So Sterling was likely exposed to the allergen around 9 a.m.
00:59:23And I'm willing to bet that someone saw something.
00:59:26Well, outside of security cameras, what's the next best way to get eyes on people?
00:59:31Spy glasses.
00:59:35Or loitering teenagers on skateboards.
00:59:37That's better.
00:59:38Yeah.
00:59:47There he is.
00:59:49Mom, promise you won't embarrass me.
00:59:51What?
00:59:52Me?
00:59:54Okay, fine.
00:59:57All right, you stay in the car.
01:00:06Hey, Lucas.
01:00:08I'm Goldie, Olive's mom, and, um, this is my friend Tom.
01:00:14What's up?
01:00:15Yeah, I know who he is.
01:00:17We can skateboard here.
01:00:18No one said we couldn't.
01:00:19Relax.
01:00:20Relax.
01:00:21We're just trying to figure out what happened to Sterling Bridgewater.
01:00:23Yeah, have you seen anything suspicious the last few days?
01:00:27Nope.
01:00:28I already told the cops.
01:00:30Lucas, it's okay.
01:00:32You can trust Tom, and my mom's the best, and you can trust me.
01:00:37If there's anything you know, just tell them.
01:00:43The morning of, I was grinding with my board somewhere I shouldn't have.
01:00:46Please don't tell my mom.
01:00:48And I saw the groom.
01:00:49He was, like, arguing with the bride before she kissed him, and he sort of pushed her away, and she kind of, like, fell backwards, so...
01:00:55So you saw the bride and groom together the morning of the wedding?
01:00:59Most def.
01:01:00She was in a fancy dress, with a jacket that said besties on it, with flowers, and he had it on his tux, so...
01:01:08What time was that?
01:01:09Nine, ten-ish.
01:01:11You know what they were arguing about?
01:01:13Uh, no, I tail-slipped past them.
01:01:15Can you take us to where that happened?
01:01:17Yeah.
01:01:27It was here.
01:01:28After he pushed her, the groom walked that way.
01:01:31The bride was on the ground, but she was, like, alive and everything.
01:01:35Okay.
01:01:36Okay.
01:01:37Thank you, Lucas.
01:01:40Mom, is it okay if me and Lucas walk back to the van?
01:01:47Sure!
01:01:49Yeah, yeah.
01:01:50But go directly to the van and text me when you get there.
01:01:53Okay.
01:01:57I'm not a cool mom.
01:02:00Alright, so, the morning of the wedding, Jess and Sterling come out here.
01:02:05Emotions are running high.
01:02:08They had a big fight the night before, so maybe they come out to talk.
01:02:13Okay.
01:02:14Jess, she goes in, she goes to kiss him.
01:02:20Then he, uh, pushes her.
01:02:24Right, she goes down.
01:02:27Sterling had an orangey rash on the back of his hand.
01:02:30What do you do when you want to wipe a kiss off your face?
01:02:37Are we missing?
01:02:45Rental car keys.
01:02:47Jessamyn would never rent a car.
01:02:50She's always chauffeured.
01:02:53Something tells me this car is parked at the hotel.
01:03:09Go to the hotel.
01:03:10Okay.
01:03:12Schultz.
01:03:13What's up, Track?
01:03:14What's up, Track?
01:03:15Let's go.
01:03:17I'm the Colorado Law Section 18-8-1-12.
01:03:19I'm arresting you for a Class 6 only offensive impersonating a police officer.
01:03:23You're making a big mistake.
01:03:25No.
01:03:26No, Tom.
01:03:27You did when you interfered in an active investigation under suspension as the prime suspect and posed as a cop to a photographer.
01:03:34That's a mouthful.
01:03:36Let's go.
01:03:39You'll be okay.
01:03:44Let's go.
01:04:15Let's go.
01:04:16Let's go.
01:04:18Here.
01:04:43There's a $300 charge on my credit card I never authorized.
01:04:48She was in a fancy dress with a jacket that said Besties on it.
01:04:51She and Sterling were once engaged.
01:04:53Well, Katie moved on.
01:04:55Her dad never forgave Sterling's family after almost losing his farm for investing in that stupid startup.
01:05:01There's nothing more important than love.
01:05:03Never take it for granted because it could be too late.
01:05:08Detective.
01:05:09The last call Sterling made was to Jess before he dropped the cell.
01:05:12According to a fall detection alert software.
01:05:14And Jess...
01:05:18Why is Tom here?
01:05:20There's suspects in custody.
01:05:21He just needs to confess her whereabouts.
01:05:23But we have new evidence that could help us crack both cases.
01:05:26They all killed Anne.
01:05:28I don't know.
01:05:29I don't know.
01:05:30I don't know.
01:05:31I don't know.
01:05:32I don't know.
01:05:33I don't know.
01:05:34I don't know.
01:05:35I don't know.
01:05:36I don't know.
01:05:43Hey.
01:05:44Hey.
01:05:45So, just got back from Whitetail like you asked.
01:05:47I compared what you found at the land registry to the MLS listings.
01:05:51And guess who bought most of the defaulted properties after Sterling's family skipped out?
01:05:55Westco Realty.
01:05:57Lawrence gave out a lot of private loans for business owners to save their properties.
01:06:01So Tom's hunch about Lawrence was right.
01:06:03He was involved with a startup and there's something he's not saying.
01:06:05But it doesn't matter because I think I know who did it.
01:06:08You think this is going to work?
01:06:10Only if Jess is alive.
01:06:11But we know how small towns work.
01:06:12We tell one person one thing and before we know it, it gets all over town and flushes out the killer.
01:06:18Hopefully.
01:06:36Ah!
01:06:44Detective?
01:06:45Hmm?
01:06:46Witnesses come forward with new evidence on the Sterling murder.
01:06:49What witness?
01:06:51What evidence?
01:06:52They only want to speak with you.
01:06:56I'm Detective Track.
01:06:58Hi.
01:06:59You.
01:07:00Hmm.
01:07:01Before we begin, I'm a little parched.
01:07:03Can I have some water?
01:07:05Sure.
01:07:06Sparkling or still?
01:07:07I'll get it.
01:07:08Well, thank you, Mason.
01:07:16Hey.
01:07:18What took you so long?
01:07:20I went as fast as I could.
01:07:26Mason!
01:07:30Okay, what's going on?
01:07:32What is this?
01:07:33Well, I've got some new evidence for you.
01:07:36You've been barking up the wrong tree, Davy.
01:07:38Have a seat.
01:07:39This might take a while.
01:07:42It's a miracle.
01:07:43Jess escaped.
01:07:44We are meeting at Elk Park Hotel Lobby.
01:08:04What?
01:08:15Where's Jess?
01:08:16Is she okay?
01:08:17I don't know.
01:08:18She hasn't shown up yet.
01:08:34Okay.
01:08:47Kaldi?
01:08:48Where's Jess?
01:08:50I don't know what you're talking about.
01:08:52Everybody else is at the hotel, but you came here.
01:08:56Because you wanted to see if Jess had actually escaped.
01:09:00So where is she?
01:09:04How'd you figure it out?
01:09:06There was a witness who saw Jess and Sterling kissing the morning of their wedding.
01:09:13But someone as superstitious as Jess would never see the groom before her wedding.
01:09:21It was you who was kissing and arguing with Sterling after you had eaten avocado crackers.
01:09:29And after you kissed him, he pushed you away.
01:09:38You lost your keys, which is why Ray was charged for an extra set.
01:09:44This whole time, you have been in love with Sterling.
01:09:48You heard him, Kaldi.
01:09:50He talked about getting back together.
01:09:52He wasn't serious, Katie.
01:09:54I know that now, but between that and hearing he had cold feet, I thought he wanted me back.
01:10:04Where's Jess?
01:10:06What did you do to her?
01:10:09Sterling called her to confess that I kissed him.
01:10:12He was sorry for having doubts and fighting with her.
01:10:18But Jess went off on me.
01:10:21She was going to tell Ray.
01:10:22She was going to tell Ray.
01:10:24I don't even remember what happened next.
01:10:28Jess was on the floor and I was holding a bloody candle holder.
01:10:33So you panicked. Instead of coming clean, you kidnapped her.
01:10:39You brought her somewhere here.
01:10:41I saw the mud and the hay on your tires.
01:10:45You planted her phone.
01:10:48Her book.
01:10:50You had everyone thinking they were cassava crackers.
01:10:53You spread rumors about Tommy lost his badge.
01:10:56I didn't know what to do.
01:10:58Did you just decide that since you can't have him, then no one else can?
01:11:02No, I didn't know people with nut allergies could have a problem with avocados.
01:11:08I only found out later.
01:11:12Well, unfortunately, it was too late, Katie.
01:11:20No!
01:11:32Put that down. Drop it.
01:11:39Got it.
01:11:41Katie, where's Jessamine?
01:11:43I'm done talking.
01:11:47Look, she could be anywhere.
01:11:49I used to play hide-and-seek with Katie on this farm when we were little and I would never find her.
01:12:03Jess?
01:12:07Jess?
01:12:12Jess?
01:12:14Jess?
01:12:16Jess!
01:12:18Jess!
01:12:20Tommy!
01:12:22Jess, we're coming!
01:12:23We're coming in.
01:12:35Jess, it's okay. It's okay.
01:12:37Are you okay?
01:12:40Jess?
01:12:42Where's Sterling?
01:12:43Where's Sterling?
01:12:46Where's my mom?
01:12:48You're safe now, Jess.
01:12:51Wait, you were actually going to wear that to my wedding?
01:12:59A hamburger is not a sandwich.
01:13:02It is the literal definition of sandwich. Bread, meat, bread, sandwich.
01:13:06That is not how this works!
01:13:07It...
01:13:12Should we go?
01:13:13Yeah, okay.
01:13:28What's going to happen to Katie?
01:13:30She's going to be charged.
01:13:33But hopefully she gets the help that she needs.
01:13:36It's so sad, you know?
01:13:39All she ever wanted was to love and be loved.
01:13:43Thomas.
01:13:45Hey.
01:13:47I just want to thank you both for bringing Jess back.
01:13:52And I want to apologize.
01:13:54No, no need, Morris.
01:13:56It's okay. I misjudged you.
01:13:58I should have said something back in New York when I discovered that Sterling's dad's startup was a scam.
01:14:06But I didn't.
01:14:09Anyway, thanks again.
01:14:11You're welcome.
01:14:22Oh, man.
01:14:29Schultz?
01:14:31Track?
01:14:32I was told to apologize.
01:14:37So this is me apologizing.
01:14:41I've been reinstated.
01:14:45I don't know how you two did it, but the case is closed.
01:14:49We did it because Goldie and I make a really good team.
01:14:54Jess is under medical evaluation, but I got her statement.
01:14:58Boy, did she have a lot to say.
01:15:02Hey.
01:15:04I should be mad, but I'll let it slide since you did what I would have done.
01:15:09Break a few rules.
01:15:11No hard feelings then?
01:15:13Oh, there's definitely hard feelings.
01:15:15Should have put you on traffic duty for the next month.
01:15:20Sorry, Mason.
01:15:22So, does this mean you'll be staying in town?
01:15:25Depends if hamburgers make it on your sandwich board.
01:15:28Oh, I didn't stick around to find out.
01:15:32Can I give you a lift?
01:15:34Yeah, thanks.
01:15:47I don't know how I feel about that.
01:15:54Goldie, I want to thank you.
01:15:57You don't need to thank me.
01:15:59No, no, I do need to thank you.
01:16:02You never once stopped believing in me.
01:16:09Goldie, will you go out on a date with me?
01:16:17If your plate has any room left on it, that is.
01:16:22You know what you feel like when you have the really big meal
01:16:27and you are so full that you couldn't possibly eat another bite?
01:16:32You make room for dessert.
01:16:34Are you suggesting that I'm the dessert?
01:16:39Because I'm okay with that.
01:16:46I'm going to hold you to it.
01:16:48Okay, Miss Barry?
01:16:50Okay.
01:17:02Hello everyone, welcome to my channel.
01:17:05Today, let's paint a picture of a man.
01:17:10First, I'm going to paint his hair and two hair clips.
01:17:32Okay.
01:17:54Hey!
01:17:57You got it?
01:17:59Give me a few minutes.
01:18:02Okay.
01:18:17Hey!
01:18:19Hey!
01:18:21I forgot to tell you that I'm going to make a sausage.
01:18:25What?
01:18:27I'm going to make a sausage.
01:18:29Give me a minute.
01:18:30Where should I put this?
01:18:43Give me a sec!
01:18:45Do you want to watch it together?
01:18:48Let's watch it later.
01:18:54Let's watch it together later.
01:18:56Let's set it up first.
01:19:00Let's see, how is it though?
