00:01:18Allie! I thought my son was gonna be here
00:01:20to help you shoot the event tonight.
00:01:22No, I had a forensics class. He said I was running late.
00:01:24But he should be on his way.
00:01:26Okay.
00:01:27This is an amazing turnout, Camille.
00:01:29James Ryzand is one of the premier art collectors
00:01:32in the country, but he's also one of the most reclusive.
00:01:35We are very lucky to get him to agree
00:01:37to share his collection with us this evening.
00:01:39Well, I hope you like what I'm getting.
00:01:41You, my dear, are the best photographer in the city.
00:01:43How could I not?
00:01:45You know, we are organizing
00:01:47an emerging talent spotlight next month.
00:01:49I'd love for you to submit.
00:01:51That would be an honor. Thank you.
00:01:53Great. There's a spot for you on the wall
00:01:55right there when you're ready.
00:01:57Uh, pardon me. Pardon me.
00:01:59Ms. Addison. Yes?
00:02:01James is requesting one of the items under glass.
00:02:03Um, the Nazareth dagger.
00:02:05He wants it taken out of the display?
00:02:08It's his latest acquisition.
00:02:10I-I guess he means to show it off in person
00:02:13to some of his guests.
00:02:15Of course. Um, excuse us, Allie.
00:02:18Right this way.
00:02:20Excuse us, please.
00:02:23Uh...
00:02:25Hello?
00:02:27Hi.
00:02:29Hi.
00:02:31I thought I was the only photographer here.
00:02:33Yeah, no, you are.
00:02:35Well, what is that?
00:02:37I'm Daniel Drake. I work for the Gazette.
00:02:39Are you a reporter?
00:02:41Trying to be. It's a slow news day,
00:02:43but I am here covering the social page.
00:02:45Well, this is quite an event.
00:02:47Yeah, yeah, it's real who's that of Willow Haven.
00:02:49Speaking of which, you are?
00:02:51Allie Adams, Picture Perfect Studios.
00:02:53That's catchy.
00:02:55Well, I guess I'll see you around, Allie Adams.
00:03:00Okay. Have a good evening.
00:03:05I'm surprised James is being so casual
00:03:07about the Nazareth dagger.
00:03:09It's a very valuable piece,
00:03:11and he's usually so security conscious.
00:03:13Well, that's my brother for you.
00:03:16Predictably unpredictable.
00:03:22I hope he appreciates the trouble you've gone to.
00:03:25Oh, it's certainly no trouble.
00:03:27It's an honor to have the Ryzan collection in my gallery.
00:03:30Actually, would you mind if my security guard
00:03:32stayed with you while you had the dagger
00:03:34out of the display case,
00:03:36just as a precautionary measure?
00:03:38No, of course not, Miss Addison.
00:03:40Frankly, it would make me feel a lot better, too.
00:03:42Mm-hmm.
00:03:44Perfect.
00:03:46Shall we?
00:03:52Maya? What are you doing here?
00:03:55Uh, is that any way to greet your best friend?
00:03:58Oh, sorry. Maya, hello.
00:04:00What a wonderful surprise.
00:04:02What are you doing here?
00:04:04Camille gave me a ticket, and as an actor,
00:04:06it is my job to attend social events
00:04:09and study the many facets of human behavior.
00:04:13Plus free food.
00:04:15Yeah, there it is.
00:04:18Beautiful, isn't it?
00:04:20Mm.
00:04:22Hmm. A little showy for my tastes.
00:04:25I mean, what are you gonna wear that with?
00:04:27This is not an accessory.
00:04:29This is high art.
00:04:31The Manchester necklace.
00:04:33A series of flawless diamonds perfectly set in symmetry.
00:04:37Belonged to Catherine Stansbury-Reed.
00:04:39Heiress of the Stansbury steel fortune.
00:04:42She used her wealth to commission
00:04:44some of the most exquisite pieces of jewelry
00:04:46in historical record.
00:04:48This was her most cherished piece.
00:04:51I'm gonna take this outside, Gwendolyn.
00:04:53Can I get you anything?
00:04:55Champagne? Of course.
00:05:00You seem to know quite a bit about this particular piece.
00:05:03Catherine Stansbury-Reed was my great-grandmother.
00:05:06Oh.
00:05:08So why is that necklace under glass in a fancy art gallery
00:05:11and not around your neck?
00:05:14That's a very good question.
00:05:17Excuse me.
00:05:29So how long do you think he's going to want to, um...
00:05:33Show off? I have no idea.
00:05:35I ask because I have a gallery full of patrons and...
00:05:38I'll be fine here, Miss Addison.
00:05:40I've got your security guard to protect me.
00:05:42Are you sure you don't mind?
00:05:44Absolutely. Please.
00:05:46Oh, great. Thank you. Thank you.
00:05:48Oh!
00:05:50I'm sorry. Excuse me.
00:06:00Wow. You can just feel her sadness.
00:06:03Sadness?
00:06:05She's alone at the table.
00:06:07The building in the window is actually just a reflection,
00:06:09a memory of what she once had.
00:06:11When you look at the coffee cup, it's out of focus,
00:06:14representing a present in which she doesn't feel she belongs.
00:06:17You have a remarkable eye for detail.
00:06:19It's café reflections.
00:06:21One of my favorites, although I have never seen it in person.
00:06:25Until tonight.
00:06:27Well, I suppose I have James Risen to thank for that.
00:06:30You don't sound like you hold Mr. Risen in very high esteem.
00:06:34It'll be on display tonight and then back to his private collection.
00:06:38It's a shame, because art is meant to inspire.
00:06:43Welcome, everyone, to the Midnight Gallery.
00:06:47Ahem.
00:06:51Tonight, we are honored to be chosen to celebrate
00:06:55the remarkable, truly extraordinary collection of James Risen.
00:07:00So, without further ado,
00:07:03please join me in welcoming the man of the hour,
00:07:07Mr. James Risen.
00:07:09Yes.
00:07:11Uh, please.
00:07:18Thank you, Camille, and thank you all for joining us this evening.
00:07:22Art tells our stories.
00:07:25It connects us.
00:07:27Preserving these treasures has been my life's work.
00:07:29With the help of my brother Patrick,
00:07:31it is my great privilege to be their guardian.
00:07:35Uh, Camille, is this your subtle way of getting me to wrap it up?
00:07:39Uh, not at all.
00:07:49Are you okay?
00:07:51Oh! Oh!
00:07:53Oh, no, what's happening?
00:07:55We need an ambulance at the Midnight Gallery.
00:07:57Please, hurry.
00:07:58Are you all right?
00:08:00He said his name was White.
00:08:02Mr. White, can you tell me what's wrong?
00:08:04Oh, my God.
00:08:06Paramedics are on the way.
00:08:08Watch your head.
00:08:27Whoa, uh, what happened?
00:08:29One of the guests collapsed.
00:08:31Is he gonna be okay?
00:08:33He will be. It was angina.
00:08:35Luckily, he had his nitroglycerin pills with him.
00:08:37Are you sure you don't want to go to the hospital, get a quick check?
00:08:40I'm fine, just a little embarrassed.
00:08:42I seem to have gathered quite a crowd.
00:08:44Thomas, I want to leave.
00:08:46Okay.
00:08:47Mr. White, did you come with anyone tonight?
00:08:49Oh, no.
00:08:50Right now. Please.
00:08:52We can get him in a car.
00:08:53Oh, yeah, thank you.
00:08:55Okay, here we go.
00:08:58Okay, are you okay?
00:09:00Yeah.
00:09:02I got you.
00:09:05Camille, should we let him leave?
00:09:07If he refuses treatment, there's nothing we can do.
00:09:11I'll be right back.
00:09:13I should put this back in the case.
00:09:15I will help you.
00:09:17See you soon.
00:09:18Whoa, whoa, whoa, where's everybody going?
00:09:20I guess the event is over.
00:09:21Why do I always miss out on all the fun?
00:09:22Not all of it.
00:09:25No!
00:09:28What happened?
00:09:30The Manchester necklace.
00:09:32It's gone.
00:09:48Is this really necessary?
00:09:55Hmm.
00:09:57Hello, Detective Acosta.
00:10:02Ms. Adams.
00:10:04Hi.
00:10:06Hi.
00:10:08Have you really looked at this?
00:10:10It's incredible.
00:10:12It's amazing.
00:10:14You know, you're very chipper for a crime scene.
00:10:17There's a reason for that.
00:10:19Specifically, eight reasons.
00:10:21Nick is pulling all the security footage,
00:10:23and we should have our necklace thief any minute.
00:10:27How's the renovation on the house going?
00:10:29Um, you know, it's, uh...
00:10:31Oh, that good, huh?
00:10:33I had to call in some reinforcements.
00:10:35Oh.
00:10:37Yeah, my Uncle Luis, he's gonna come in,
00:10:39taking a break from his isle of retirement.
00:10:41Does he know much about construction?
00:10:43I don't know.
00:10:45But I figure that two heads are better than one, right?
00:10:47Yeah.
00:10:49Um...
00:10:51I still haven't found a decent cup of coffee anywhere.
00:10:53Sorry?
00:10:55In Willow Haven. I've been here, what, three months?
00:10:57Nobody does coffee New York style.
00:10:59No one.
00:11:01New York style?
00:11:03The coffee here is just too polite.
00:11:05What do you mean?
00:11:07Well, it just sits there in the cup
00:11:09and just waits for you to drink it.
00:11:11Well, what do you want it to do?
00:11:13I don't know. I like a cup of coffee
00:11:15that smacks me in the head and says,
00:11:17I'll get back to you on that.
00:11:19Yeah?
00:11:21Yeah.
00:11:23I might have a lead for you.
00:11:25Well, I hope somebody does, because we've got a problem.
00:11:27Hi, Ellie. Hi.
00:11:29Security footage dropped out for almost two minutes.
00:11:31Take a while to guess when.
00:11:33Our head? Yep.
00:11:35Is there another angle? Nope.
00:11:37How does two minutes of security footage just disappear?
00:11:39With someone's help.
00:11:41Yeah.
00:11:47Yo!
00:11:49There he is.
00:11:51Willow Haven PD's newest recruit.
00:11:53Wish I was still working here.
00:11:55It's good to see you.
00:11:57Good to see you.
00:11:59Hey, how's retirement treating you?
00:12:01Palm trees, miles and miles of sand and surf.
00:12:03Nothing to do but sit back and relax.
00:12:05You're going nuts.
00:12:07It's a nightmare.
00:12:09But I got you something.
00:12:11Okay.
00:12:13From the islands.
00:12:15From the islands.
00:12:17Oh, wow.
00:12:19Thanks.
00:12:21You don't got to thank me.
00:12:23Okay.
00:12:25Yikes.
00:12:27Good to be here.
00:12:33So this is your home, huh?
00:12:35You fixing it up?
00:12:37Yeah.
00:12:39You know, I thought I'd be a little further along with the renovation by now,
00:12:41but, you know.
00:12:43Well, what's left on your to-do list?
00:12:45We got floors.
00:12:47Walls.
00:12:49Got to patch the roof.
00:12:51Your roof leaks?
00:12:53Only when it rains.
00:12:55We got upstairs plumbing, downstairs plumbing.
00:12:57Got to retile both of the bathrooms.
00:12:59Anything crossed off your list?
00:13:01I fixed the sink.
00:13:07Okay, well, I got to get to work.
00:13:09I'm glad you're here.
00:13:11I'll bring us some dinner.
00:13:13You make yourself right at home.
00:13:41Hey, Mom.
00:13:43Hey, honey.
00:13:45Hey.
00:13:47You okay?
00:13:49I'm okay.
00:13:51You need help with anything?
00:13:53We're gonna be fine.
00:13:55Okay.
00:14:01Noah.
00:14:03Hey.
00:14:05Oh, hey.
00:14:07Sorry, I meant to call you.
00:14:09What are you doing?
00:14:11Well, James Risen is holding my mom personally responsible
00:14:15for the burglary last night.
00:14:17Well, I'm sure he has insurance to cover it.
00:14:19Well, money's not the problem.
00:14:21Okay, the art community's very small,
00:14:23and he's threatening to warn away artists
00:14:25from displaying their pieces at the gallery.
00:14:27You know, my mom worked really hard
00:14:29to earn the reputation that she has,
00:14:31and just one word from James Risen
00:14:33could all be gone.
00:14:35Just like that.
00:14:37Well, it's still early,
00:14:39and the police have leads.
00:14:41They are gonna find this necklace.
00:14:43I hope so.
00:14:45Because if they don't find it,
00:14:47that means that gallery's as good as closed.
00:14:53Now, how does somebody steal a necklace
00:14:55from a locked box?
00:14:57They pick the lock.
00:14:59Well, our display cases need a special key,
00:15:01and the lock's supposed to be almost impossible to pick.
00:15:03But not completely.
00:15:05Not completely, yeah.
00:15:07Who else knows about this key?
00:15:09Well, it's me, my mom,
00:15:11the security guard,
00:15:13and, um...
00:15:15And?
00:15:19And somebody we should talk to.
00:15:27We locked down the site and all the guests were searched.
00:15:29All of them?
00:15:31Well, no, there was a window of time before we got there.
00:15:33Invite only so that there's a guest list.
00:15:35But we already have all the names on it.
00:15:37Okay. Well, let's check in with Risen,
00:15:39see if there's anyone on his radar with an interest in the necklace.
00:15:41All right.
00:15:43Oh, and when you go through that list,
00:15:45let's start with the guests with the conveniently-timed heart attack.
00:15:47You got it, Chief.
00:15:51Miss Aspen told us
00:15:53you were given the gallery's security key.
00:15:55I was. We removed an item
00:15:57from one of the display cases,
00:15:59a dagger, at James' request.
00:16:01Did it ever leave your possession?
00:16:03I returned it to her right after I used it.
00:16:05The security guard at the gallery
00:16:07was with me the entire time, was he?
00:16:09Mm-hmm.
00:16:11We spoke with him,
00:16:13but he can't seem to confirm your whereabouts
00:16:15after the lights went out.
00:16:17But I can.
00:16:19Patrick was right beside me during the theft.
00:16:21The landscapers are waiting to be paid.
00:16:23Will there be anything else?
00:16:25I think we're good. Sure.
00:16:31Detectives,
00:16:33as you are no doubt aware,
00:16:35every moment that passes
00:16:37takes the Stansbury-Reed necklace farther from reach,
00:16:39which causes me to wonder
00:16:41why you are currently here,
00:16:43in my home,
00:16:45questioning my own brother
00:16:47when time is of the essence.
00:16:49Well, seeing as there's no eyewitnesses,
00:16:51we needed to broaden our line of questioning.
00:16:53Room full of people, and no one saw a thing.
00:16:55Unbelievable.
00:16:57Uh, please, not so close.
00:16:59This is a 19th-century Macedonian corsia.
00:17:01Mr. Risen, the insurance adjuster's on the phone.
00:17:05Uh, my assistant Rebecca
00:17:07will provide you with whatever information you need.
00:17:09Anything at all, you can have it.
00:17:11Detective Acosta. Yes?
00:17:13That necklace, it's, um, one of a kind.
00:17:15Irreplaceable. I must have it back.
00:17:17You're on it.
00:17:23Don't touch!
00:17:25Yep. Yep.
00:17:29Griff Rickard.
00:17:31Worked as a security guard for six months at the gallery.
00:17:33Always came in late,
00:17:35always fell asleep on the job,
00:17:37so my mom fired him.
00:17:39So he would know the layout of the gallery.
00:17:41Security features, blind spots.
00:17:43Yeah, an opportunity to make some money
00:17:45and ruin my mom's reputation.
00:17:47This. This is our guy.
00:17:49So what's your plan? You're just gonna go up there
00:17:51and see if he stole the necklace?
00:17:53I can tell when people are lying to me.
00:17:55Oh, that's a great idea.
00:17:57I have a better one.
00:17:59He had motive.
00:18:01Let's find out if he had opportunity.
00:18:09Hi. Uh, I'm looking
00:18:11for Griff Richards.
00:18:13Rickard.
00:18:15I'm here to take
00:18:17the new badge photo.
00:18:19I wasn't told anything about new badges.
00:18:21It's just like management.
00:18:23Sorry. Don't have time today.
00:18:25Okay.
00:18:27Well, if you could just let your boss know
00:18:29that I won't be able to get back in here for another three weeks.
00:18:31Hopefully he won't be too mad. I know he was very eager
00:18:33to get this done quickly. You know,
00:18:35um, I can spare a minute.
00:18:37Perfect.
00:18:39I can just take it right here if you stand up.
00:18:41Is here all right?
00:18:43Yeah, just
00:18:45move over a little.
00:18:47And then back up
00:18:49just a little bit.
00:18:51Perfect.
00:18:55Hey, Griff.
00:18:57We need you at the boat launch.
00:18:59He's taking the new badge photo.
00:19:01What new badge photo?
00:19:03What was your name again?
00:19:05Um...
00:19:07Alarm on dock three.
00:19:15Well, it took you long enough.
00:19:17You try finding a boat with an alarm on it.
00:19:19You're too trusting these days.
00:19:25Griff was on shift that night.
00:19:27Four to midnight.
00:19:29Okay, well, it doesn't mean he was there. It just means he was supposed to be.
00:19:31Right, but as far as alibis go,
00:19:33it's a pretty good one.
00:19:35I'm not saying he's not our guy. I'm just saying
00:19:37maybe we want to cast a wider net.
00:19:39Well, with nearly a hundred
00:19:41guest artists and caterers,
00:19:43we're gonna need a big net.
00:19:51You sure this is the place?
00:19:5322?
00:19:55Yep.
00:19:57Mr. White.
00:19:59Willow Haven PD.
00:20:01Hello?
00:20:03Mr. White.
00:20:07You know the gallery event
00:20:09was a thousand bucks ahead?
00:20:11This isn't exactly the house of a high ruler.
00:20:13Well, if it is, he certainly didn't spend any money on landscaping.
00:20:15You're telling me.
00:20:17Hold on.
00:20:19Ma'am?
00:20:21Are you from around here?
00:20:23Mm-hmm. Four houses down.
00:20:25The craftsman with the green shutters.
00:20:27Do you know Arthur White?
00:20:29Doesn't ring a bell.
00:20:31Are you sure? Because he lives right here.
00:20:35No one's lived in that house for years.
00:20:39Yeah.
00:20:43Big smile.
00:20:45There we go.
00:20:47Margaret,
00:20:49how many years have I shot your photo
00:20:51for the university yearbook?
00:20:53Since I became provost.
00:20:55Do you think it's time that maybe we try something different?
00:20:57Different?
00:20:59Yeah, you know, a little less buttoned up.
00:21:01I don't know. I want to put a good foot forward.
00:21:03Well, what makes a better first impression
00:21:05than a little personality?
00:21:07Why don't you try living
00:21:09a little dangerously?
00:21:17That's spirit.
00:21:27Whoa.
00:21:29What is this?
00:21:31Oh, I thought maybe if I laid out the photos
00:21:33from the event, it'd give us a timeline.
00:21:35I made a security camera stop rolling, but you didn't.
00:21:37Oh, good.
00:21:39So, where do we start?
00:21:41Good morning.
00:21:43Good morning.
00:21:47Aren't you two a little old
00:21:49for collages?
00:21:51We're viewing photos
00:21:53from the gallery.
00:21:55Try to narrow down suspects.
00:21:57We're trying to catch a thief.
00:21:59Well, then you
00:22:03should start here.
00:22:05Why? Who's this?
00:22:07It's the woman who took the necklace.
00:22:09And you know this how?
00:22:11She was here all night.
00:22:13She said it was a family heirloom.
00:22:15Did you happen to catch a name?
00:22:17Uh, Gwendolyn?
00:22:19Noah, can your mom get us a copy of the guest list?
00:22:21Yeah.
00:22:27Mr. White's invitation
00:22:29was sent to that abandoned house.
00:22:31He needed it in hand to get into the event that night.
00:22:33Yep.
00:22:35Mr. White is most likely an alias.
00:22:37Most likely.
00:22:39We've got to find out who picked up that letter.
00:22:41And how he got on the guest list in the first place.
00:22:43Right.
00:22:45Oh, yeah.
00:22:47Good to see you.
00:22:49Hey.
00:22:51Wow.
00:22:55Luis!
00:22:57How are you, Nick?
00:22:59Good to see you, man.
00:23:01What are you doing here?
00:23:03I brought you lunch.
00:23:05Acosta.
00:23:07Acosta?
00:23:09Yeah.
00:23:11Sorry, force of habit.
00:23:13Chief.
00:23:15You calling him back up?
00:23:17No, no, no. He's just leaving.
00:23:19You're leaving, right?
00:23:21Mr. Acosta, nice to see you.
00:23:23Great to see you too, Chief.
00:23:25Okay.
00:23:27Forensics get us any leads on the gallery thief?
00:23:29Not yet.
00:23:31The display case had a bunch of prints on it,
00:23:33so we're going to run it through our system
00:23:35Actually, a necklace was stolen from the Midnight Gallery.
00:23:37Oh.
00:23:39Even if it is what he didn't accomplish
00:23:41to get into the security room,
00:23:43only two people have cards.
00:23:45Yes, Miss Addison and the security guard.
00:23:47That's it.
00:23:49Are the card left unattended?
00:23:51On the middle of times.
00:23:53You checking with Carmichael?
00:23:55Uh, who?
00:23:57Carmichael.
00:23:59Gavin Carmichael.
00:24:01We picked him up more than once for pickpocketing.
00:24:03Odds are that he is...
00:24:05On parole.
00:24:07He's got a point.
00:24:09You got something for me?
00:24:11Yeah, an apple.
00:24:13Really missed you, buddy.
00:24:17Follow the lady.
00:24:19Jokers don't pay.
00:24:21Keep your eyes on the queen.
00:24:23Could be your lucky day.
00:24:27Place your bet, pal.
00:24:33You sure?
00:24:35Last chance.
00:24:37Oh, too bad.
00:24:39We'll get him next time.
00:24:41Who else wants to try their luck?
00:24:43I'll give it a shot.
00:24:45Step right up.
00:24:47Excuse me.
00:24:49Could you help me find
00:24:51the Sinclair Museum?
00:24:53I seem to have got myself turned around a little bit.
00:24:55Of course.
00:24:57It's in here somewhere.
00:24:59Keep those eyes on the prize.
00:25:01So...
00:25:03What'll it be?
00:25:07Moment of your time.
00:25:13Over there.
00:25:17Oh, could take a...
00:25:19Bridge.
00:25:23No, no, no. It's over here.
00:25:25Actually, Highland is a little busy this time of day.
00:25:27You're better off taking Hunter.
00:25:31Hunter?
00:25:33Well, where's Hunter?
00:25:35Excuse me a moment.
00:25:37Ow!
00:25:39My arm!
00:25:41Told you you'd run.
00:25:43Move it.
00:25:45Got him.
00:25:47Okay.
00:25:49Got the guest list.
00:25:57But no Gwendolyn
00:25:59on it.
00:26:09I was at home,
00:26:11watching the game.
00:26:13Yeah, there was a tough break for the Sox.
00:26:15Thought they could pull it off.
00:26:17They did. Walk off homer in the ninth.
00:26:19So you were home all night?
00:26:21Can anyone confirm this?
00:26:23My wife, Sherry.
00:26:25She got off her shift at six,
00:26:27and I got off on Monday.
00:26:29The time?
00:26:31No, the art gallery.
00:26:33Somebody pulled a job, stole a necklace.
00:26:35I don't do that anymore.
00:26:37Learned my lesson.
00:26:39Got a wife, a job. Flat and straight.
00:26:41Really? Then why are you pulling a cards game in the park?
00:26:43It's not like I keep any of the money.
00:26:45No?
00:26:47No. I give it all to the animal shelter.
00:26:49It's like Robin Hood, only with dogs.
00:26:51Yeah, something like that.
00:26:53So tell me, why'd you run?
00:26:55Solid alibi.
00:26:57Checks in with his parole officer twice a month.
00:26:59But you're not quite ready to write him off yet.
00:27:01Fits his M.O.
00:27:03Be nice to put him in the area.
00:27:05I think I might know someone who can help.
00:27:15Everything we shot that night.
00:27:17Ah.
00:27:19Thank you very much.
00:27:21Any leads?
00:27:23Uh, a few.
00:27:25Like?
00:27:27Why are you fishing?
00:27:29Natural curiosity.
00:27:31You know what they say.
00:27:33Curiosity killed the cat.
00:27:35Yes, but satisfaction brought it back.
00:27:37Everybody forgets that part.
00:27:39That's good.
00:27:41Yeah, I'm just trying to help.
00:27:43Oh, you've helped enough.
00:27:47So you know about the former midnight guard,
00:27:49with an axe to grind and access to the security layout.
00:27:51Griff Rickard, yes.
00:27:53We got his alibi this morning.
00:27:55Confirmed?
00:27:59You know what?
00:28:01Are you free on Saturday?
00:28:03Saturday?
00:28:05Yeah, you promised me coffee.
00:28:07Uh, right. Yeah.
00:28:09So Saturday.
00:28:11You can pick the place.
00:28:13Okay.
00:28:15Okay. See you then.
00:28:17Hey.
00:28:21That was Detective Acosta, right?
00:28:23Uh-huh.
00:28:25Any progress on the case?
00:28:27Leads, clues, anything?
00:28:29I think I got a date.
00:28:31Huh?
00:28:33I thought I just heard you say you think you got a date.
00:28:41Can you get me my phone?
00:28:43Huh.
00:28:51Thanks, Margaret.
00:28:53Her name is Gwendolyn Cox.
00:28:55Why wasn't she on the guest list?
00:28:57Maybe she was a plus one?
00:28:59Found her.
00:29:01She's a contracts lawyer.
00:29:03Works downtown.
00:29:05Wow. Stanford.
00:29:07Rhodes Scholar. Greenpeace.
00:29:09Not really the resume of a thief.
00:29:11Yeah, but maybe this might explain it.
00:29:13While researching the necklace,
00:29:15I found out that Ryzen purchased it
00:29:17at an auction last spring.
00:29:19That's pretty nasty.
00:29:21I'm gonna give you one guess who he beat out.
00:29:23Okay, so...
00:29:25Ryzen steals the necklace from under Gwendolyn.
00:29:27She steals it back.
00:29:29Yeah, but how did she get it out?
00:29:31Everybody was searched.
00:29:33No, not entirely.
00:29:35Gwendolyn and her date left with Mr. White
00:29:37before anyone knew the necklace was missing.
00:29:39Do we have a name for her date?
00:29:41She might have one for us.
00:29:43Ooh, that's him. That's him.
00:29:45Well, no caption, no tags, no name.
00:29:49Shh.
00:29:51I think I have an idea.
00:29:53Okay.
00:30:23Mm-mm-mm.
00:30:25Mm-mm-mm.
00:30:27Mm-mm-mm.
00:30:29It's 5 a.m.
00:30:31I thought I'd let you sleep in.
00:30:35How do you like your eggs?
00:30:49Ha!
00:30:51Da-da-da-da-da!
00:30:53Da-da-da-da-da!
00:30:55Da-da-da-da-da!
00:31:07Hello.
00:31:09What can I get you boys?
00:31:11Five minutes of your time.
00:31:13If you can spare.
00:31:15Of course.
00:31:17Is Gavin Carmichael your husband?
00:31:19Did he talk to you on Friday night?
00:31:21Around 10 p.m.?
00:31:23Uh, yes, he was.
00:31:25Is my husband in some kind of trouble?
00:31:27Not yet. No.
00:31:29No trouble.
00:31:31He mentioned you two stayed in,
00:31:33watched some movies.
00:31:35Is that true?
00:31:37Um, um, maybe.
00:31:39When I went to bed, he was still watching the game.
00:31:43Great. Thank you.
00:31:45Watching the game.
00:31:47Stories line up.
00:31:49Well, he could have got there first.
00:31:51Guess we'll have to keep an eye on her.
00:32:05It's me.
00:32:07We need to talk.
00:32:09Her date
00:32:11was Thomas Wake.
00:32:13What, she told you that?
00:32:15No, I had a friend run his plates.
00:32:17Ooh, the cute cat.
00:32:19No, we're not.
00:32:21He would never. It's a private eye friend.
00:32:23I shot his author's photo for his true crime novel.
00:32:25Okay, so
00:32:27Thomas Wake?
00:32:29Yes. Two years ago, he sold his startup tech company for millions.
00:32:31He wouldn't need to steal a necklace.
00:32:33Except he lost half of it in bad investments
00:32:35and the other half at the roulette table.
00:32:37So, we think he helped her?
00:32:39Or maybe he was just a patsy.
00:32:41I'll wait for her to get in.
00:32:43But he'd gain a lot from stealing that necklace,
00:32:45so there's only one way to find out.
00:32:59Okay, maybe nobody's home.
00:33:01Uh, well, his car's in the driveway.
00:33:03Okay, this is the type of house of somebody who has at least three cars.
00:33:05Fine, maybe he's dodging us.
00:33:07Hi!
00:33:09Hi!
00:33:11I was hoping you could help us.
00:33:13Uh, we are from Best Homes Magazine
00:33:15and we are doing a piece on Mr. Wake's house
00:33:17and he was supposed to meet us here for a photoshoot,
00:33:19but he's not answering.
00:33:21Best Homes?
00:33:23Mm-hmm. Yeah, I'm the photographer. See?
00:33:25Mr. Wake didn't tell me anything about this.
00:33:27You know, I think it's because he's so modest
00:33:29he just didn't want to say anything.
00:33:31Modest. Mr. Wake.
00:33:33Now, I know you're lying.
00:33:35Get out of here before I call the police.
00:33:45Best Homes Magazine.
00:33:47It usually works.
00:33:49Okay, we need a better cover story.
00:33:51Okay, fine.
00:33:53Over-eager real estate agents.
00:33:55Or lost tourists.
00:33:57Yes, so we can have accents.
00:33:59Luna.
00:34:01Oh!
00:34:05Okay, now what?
00:34:07Okay, so we're gonna go to the door and...
00:34:09I don't know, I don't know.
00:34:11I just kind of make this up as I go along, okay?
00:34:13What?
00:34:15Hello?
00:34:17Um, hey, lady?
00:34:19You okay?
00:34:21Yeah, I don't hear anything.
00:34:23Okay, she sounds like she's in trouble.
00:34:25We should go.
00:34:27Noah?
00:34:35What?
00:34:37Shh.
00:34:43Okay, you go this way.
00:34:45I'll go over here.
00:34:47Okay.
00:34:53Hello?
00:34:55Hello?
00:35:05Is everything okay?
00:35:13There's someone in the kitchen!
00:35:15When?
00:35:17Mr. Wake.
00:35:19What about Mr. Wake?
00:35:21He's dead.
00:35:25Miss Adams?
00:35:27Do I want to know why you're at another crime scene?
00:35:29Probably not.
00:35:31You guys call it in?
00:35:33We were here when the maid found him.
00:35:35What happened?
00:35:37Launched trauma to the back of the head.
00:35:39Hey.
00:35:41Hey.
00:35:43Miss Phillips is heading back to the station to give her statement.
00:35:45I guess we're lucky she didn't clean up after crime scene
00:35:47before she spotted the body.
00:35:49No, it seems like someone was trying to kill her.
00:35:51I don't know.
00:35:53Well, we're going to need a statement.
00:35:55Officer.
00:35:57Oh, I don't know anything.
00:35:59Well, then it won't take too long.
00:36:03You too, my friend.
00:36:05Me?
00:36:07Yep.
00:36:09Officer?
00:36:11Ma'am, this is an active crime scene.
00:36:13I can't have you here.
00:36:15I know.
00:36:17I've got something I think you might want to see.
00:36:19My security camera
00:36:21sees the front of his house.
00:36:23Here.
00:36:29I can't make out who it is,
00:36:31but she was only in the house five minutes.
00:36:37But didn't ask the taxi to wait.
00:36:39Like she wasn't expecting you to leave so soon.
00:36:41I don't know.
00:36:43I don't know.
00:36:45I don't know.
00:36:47Like she wasn't expecting you to leave so soon.
00:36:49I went through the rest of the night.
00:36:51No one else came through.
00:36:53At least not through the front door.
00:36:55Hey, can you back up a few frames?
00:36:57Okay.
00:37:01Can, uh, forensics get a clearer picture of that?
00:37:07You don't have to.
00:37:11You can't be here.
00:37:13I know who that is.
00:37:17So how long were you two dating?
00:37:19Two months.
00:37:21We met in an auction.
00:37:23We both bid on the same painting.
00:37:25I won.
00:37:27He bought dinner.
00:37:29Nice.
00:37:31I just don't know why anyone would want to hurt him.
00:37:33You attended the Midnight Gallery event together?
00:37:35He was invited.
00:37:37And you?
00:37:39I was his plus one.
00:37:41Thomas know...
00:37:43knew Patrick Reisand.
00:37:45They went to school together.
00:37:47You know, we have security footage of you
00:37:49leaving his house that night.
00:37:51You seemed to be in quite a hurry.
00:37:53It's not what you think.
00:37:55What do I think?
00:37:57That I killed him.
00:37:59Did you?
00:38:01No.
00:38:03I loved him.
00:38:05Then why'd you send the taxi away?
00:38:07We had planned on having a late dinner after the event.
00:38:09He promised me that he was going to cook for me.
00:38:11But when we got back to his house, he was...
00:38:13It was very confusing.
00:38:15It was like he was a different person.
00:38:17Did you get in a fight?
00:38:21He told me that he was no longer interested
00:38:23in seeing me.
00:38:25That it had been a mistake.
00:38:27He asked me to leave.
00:38:29So I did.
00:38:33You believe her?
00:38:35That he broke her heart?
00:38:37She was convincing.
00:38:39Also a good reason for a quick exit.
00:38:41And a motive for murder.
00:38:43And a motive for murder.
00:38:51The Great Jewel Heist?
00:38:53Every good mystery needs a name.
00:38:55No, we're not calling it that.
00:38:57I think it's catchy.
00:38:59I voted for the case of the Perloy necklace.
00:39:01Okay, you are not helping.
00:39:05Maya, why is your picture on the board?
00:39:07Because I'm part of the mystery now.
00:39:09It was from two years ago
00:39:11when I auditioned for a local production
00:39:13of The Hound of Baskervilles.
00:39:15Did you get it?
00:39:17Still waiting to hear.
00:39:19Oh, how did it go with Thomas?
00:39:21Did he talk?
00:39:23No.
00:39:25He's dead.
00:39:27Oh. I guess he's off the board.
00:39:29Well, he was alive
00:39:31when the necklace was stolen.
00:39:33Do you think they're related?
00:39:35I don't know.
00:39:37Who knows?
00:39:45Aardvark. Aardvark.
00:39:47What do you got?
00:39:49Finally got to the guest list.
00:39:51Checking against criminal histories.
00:39:53Mostly speeding tickets, but one did jump out.
00:39:57Mr. Clint Baxter.
00:39:59No criminal file, but get this.
00:40:01He was the person of interest
00:40:03in two larceny cases in the last three years.
00:40:05Well, maybe we should pay Mr. Baxter a little visit.
00:40:07All right.
00:40:13Wow. Nice boat.
00:40:1530-footer?
00:40:1731.
00:40:19Must have set you back.
00:40:21Well, I married well and divorced better.
00:40:23Something I can help you gentlemen with?
00:40:25Willow Haven PD.
00:40:27Just wanted to ask you a couple questions
00:40:29about the Midnight Gallery art show.
00:40:31Can I offer you gentlemen a drink?
00:40:33No, thank you.
00:40:35I'll take one.
00:40:39Last December, you were sought after
00:40:41in connection to a piece of stolen artwork
00:40:43from the Heinsberg Museum.
00:40:45Yeah.
00:40:47Wrong place, wrong time.
00:40:49Had a couple of those, huh?
00:40:51Yeah.
00:40:53But you were also questioned in the theft
00:40:55of a diamond necklace from a private collection.
00:40:57And cleared on both.
00:40:59I travel in wealthy circles, gentlemen.
00:41:01I'm looking for valuable things.
00:41:03I hope you're not suggesting
00:41:05I had something to do with the missing necklace.
00:41:07No, but you were at the gallery the night it was stolen.
00:41:09I was also there after, where I was frisked.
00:41:11I want to be your man very thoroughly.
00:41:15Mr. Baxter, is everything all right?
00:41:17I do believe the officers were just leaving.
00:41:19Yes, we're just leaving.
00:41:21Leaving. Appreciate it.
00:41:31I don't know how you do things in New York,
00:41:33but in Willow Haven, we don't drink on the clock.
00:41:35This isn't for me.
00:41:37I figured the lab might want a fresh set of prints.
00:41:45And then we'll just reschedule the photo booth.
00:41:47Detective Acosta!
00:41:49How do you get this kind of detail?
00:41:51Um, it's just a wide aperture,
00:41:53and then you select a focal point in the background.
00:41:55I'm gonna go get some coffee.
00:41:57You want anything?
00:41:59No. No, I'm good.
00:42:01All right. What about you, man?
00:42:03I'm okay.
00:42:05All right. I'ma be five minutes.
00:42:07Make that ten.
00:42:09You ever show any of these at the gallery?
00:42:13No, but Camille wants me to submit to her showcase,
00:42:15so when I have the right picture, I will.
00:42:17Hey, Allie.
00:42:19Mm-hmm?
00:42:21I already saw it.
00:42:23Is this the part
00:42:25where you tell me to leave the investigating to you?
00:42:27Is this the part where you pretend
00:42:29that you didn't hear what I said?
00:42:31Sorry.
00:42:33Look, I-I just came to check in on you.
00:42:35You know, walking up in a crime scene like that,
00:42:37it's, uh, it's a lot.
00:42:39Emotionally.
00:42:41Is it normal for cops to come in
00:42:43and check on people's well-being?
00:42:45I'm not here as a cop.
00:42:47But either way,
00:42:49I'm just here as, uh, as a friend.
00:42:53Thanks.
00:42:55Um, no, I'm good.
00:42:57We're good. Thank you.
00:42:59Good. Uh, and, um,
00:43:01I just think maybe I should give you my number in case you...
00:43:03Oh, no. I have it.
00:43:05Okay. Yeah. So...
00:43:07It's just nice to know that I can use it.
00:43:09I'm gonna see my way out.
00:43:15Patrick Risen.
00:43:17James' brother.
00:43:19I did some digging into their family history.
00:43:21And we found out that they've been locked in a legal battle
00:43:23for years after their parents passed away.
00:43:25Yeah, the family estate was worth millions,
00:43:27and they left it all to James.
00:43:29Wow. That's got to sting.
00:43:31I don't know.
00:43:33I don't know.
00:43:35I don't know.
00:43:37I don't know. It's got to sting.
00:43:39But Patrick works with James.
00:43:41Uh, for him.
00:43:43As a peace offering, Patrick was given a role
00:43:45in his brokerage firm.
00:43:47And my mom said that Patrick had the security key that night.
00:43:49Well, he was standing next to James when it happened.
00:43:51I saw him.
00:43:53Mm, maybe he gave it to someone?
00:43:55Okay, so...
00:43:57Younger brother, with an ax to grind,
00:43:59steals older brother's most prized possession.
00:44:01Patrick manages the family's property,
00:44:03Tupper Estate.
00:44:05Tupper is the name on the mother's side.
00:44:07No, no, no, I-I know Tupper Estate.
00:44:09We've shot weddings there. It's beautiful.
00:44:11Too bad you're not shooting one now.
00:44:19Mr. Ryson, we'll be with you shortly.
00:44:21Oh, thank you.
00:44:23May I offer you anything to drink?
00:44:25Some water? Some soda?
00:44:27Oh, I'm okay, thank you.
00:44:29Oh, well, I'll get it.
00:44:31No, we're good.
00:44:33Oh, these are beautiful.
00:44:35You shoot any of these?
00:44:37I don't know, probably.
00:44:39The Rogers-Carter wedding.
00:44:41Peter's bishop wedding.
00:44:47Oh, he was at the gallery that night.
00:44:49Oh, who's he?
00:44:51I don't know, but I recognize his face.
00:44:53This was your responsibility.
00:44:55I understand.
00:44:57I don't care that you're my brother.
00:44:59I don't care.
00:45:01I understand.
00:45:03I don't care that you understand.
00:45:05Tell me again why I should trust you.
00:45:11I apologize for the wait.
00:45:13Oh, no, you're fine.
00:45:15I know you, don't I?
00:45:17Um...
00:45:19Allie Adams.
00:45:21Of course.
00:45:23You were at the gallery the other night at James' show.
00:45:25Uh, yeah, I was. I-I was.
00:45:27So, now you're going to be photographing
00:45:29the Fisher-Manning wedding.
00:45:31Exactly, yes. Um, and thank you for making time for us.
00:45:33We have a client with a lot of specific needs
00:45:35that we would like to accommodate.
00:45:37Happy to help.
00:45:39Question. I-I recognize him.
00:45:41Is this Ryan Sullivan?
00:45:43No.
00:45:45Clint Baxter.
00:45:47Oh.
00:45:49My mistake. It could be his twin.
00:45:51As you can see,
00:45:53he's a bit of a bon vivant.
00:45:55He never met a social circle
00:45:57that he couldn't charm his way into.
00:46:01You don't seem particularly charmed.
00:46:03He stole something very precious from me.
00:46:05My fiancée.
00:46:07Their marriage didn't last long,
00:46:09and after they got divorced,
00:46:11he took half her fortune,
00:46:13so I suppose I got the last laugh.
00:46:15Yeah, that's the spirit.
00:46:19So, where would you like to begin?
00:46:21Noah, can you pull up the specs for the wedding?
00:46:23Yeah.
00:46:25What's the Wi-Fi password here?
00:46:27Oh.
00:46:33It is amazing what you can get from somebody's phone
00:46:35when you connect it to the same network.
00:46:37That's scary.
00:46:43I thought she was his assistant.
00:46:55No cell phone calls.
00:46:57No e-mails.
00:46:59No messages to the police or his insurance company.
00:47:01Or his brother.
00:47:03You got all of this from tapping into his Wi-Fi?
00:47:05Suddenly I feel like locking my phone in a drawer
00:47:07for the rest of my life.
00:47:09He didn't make any phone calls after 10.15.
00:47:11Which is when the necklace was stolen.
00:47:13His brother's priceless antique goes missing,
00:47:15and he doesn't make a single phone call.
00:47:17Maya lost her favorite purple sweater last week
00:47:19and called me, like, 50 times.
00:47:21Okay. It goes with everything.
00:47:25Maybe he was in shock.
00:47:29Maybe he wasn't.
00:47:35Chief.
00:47:37Sam. Gavin Carmichael's file.
00:47:39Already checked it out. Got his alibi.
00:47:41Take a look at the arrest report.
00:47:43The one that sent him away?
00:47:45No. His first offense. Two years ago.
00:47:47He was nabbed for pickpocketing by the marina.
00:47:51The victim.
00:47:53Thomas Wake.
00:47:55I'm on him.
00:48:07He's not budging from his alibi.
00:48:09At his house.
00:48:11All night.
00:48:13At the time of the theft,
00:48:15and later for the murder.
00:48:17You buying it?
00:48:19I don't know. When I told him Thomas Wake was dead,
00:48:21he looked surprised. Spooked.
00:48:29I think this is water damage.
00:48:31You ought to call someone in.
00:48:33Check for mold.
00:48:35How am I supposed to take care of something like that?
00:48:37Well, look, you got mold in that wall.
00:48:39You don't clean it up.
00:48:41You knock it down.
00:48:45You know, is it still considered a fixer-upper
00:48:47if you don't fix anything?
00:48:49Yeah.
00:48:55Good news?
00:48:57Uh, yeah, yeah.
00:48:59I'm just, you know, following up on something.
00:49:01Hey, Sam, how's that midnight case coming along?
00:49:03It's good.
00:49:05You know, I could take a look at it if you want some fresh eyes on it.
00:49:07No, no, no, no, no. Hey, I got it.
00:49:11I think it's time for the new faucet.
00:49:13Okay.
00:49:15I think it's in a box in the living room.
00:49:17Okay.
00:49:47What is it?
00:49:49I found this.
00:49:51Gabrielle Russell.
00:49:53Now, you told me
00:49:55you stepped away from this case, Sam.
00:49:57You said that you left New York
00:49:59because you wanted to have a fresh start.
00:50:01Yeah, I do.
00:50:03Then why are you bringing the pass with you?
00:50:05Where did you find that?
00:50:07In one of those boxes.
00:50:09It probably got mixed up in the move.
00:50:11I don't know.
00:50:13You know what, Sam?
00:50:15You can have the pass,
00:50:17but you can't carry them with you forever.
00:50:25Acosta.
00:50:27Yeah, I'll be right in.
00:50:31Mr. Risen was going through his correspondence.
00:50:33He thought you might like to see these.
00:50:37So...
00:50:39What exactly am I looking at?
00:50:4126 e-mails.
00:50:43The letters on the necklace
00:50:45with increasing hostility.
00:50:47Really? Gwendolyn Cox.
00:50:49She wanted that necklace.
00:50:51Made it very clear she wouldn't stop
00:50:53until she got it.
00:50:55Sure looks like it.
00:51:01We've got Gwendolyn Cox
00:51:03at two crime scenes in one night.
00:51:05What are the odds that she's tied up in one?
00:51:07Or both.
00:51:09Maybe the motive for Thomas Leake's murder
00:51:11wasn't so great.
00:51:13Maybe he found out about the necklace
00:51:15and put him to tell.
00:51:17Or he's working with her,
00:51:19and we got ourselves a good old-fashioned double-cross.
00:51:21You don't understand, Philip.
00:51:23I've got nothing to lose.
00:51:25Nothing but my heart.
00:51:33Um...
00:51:35I could try it a different way if you'd like.
00:51:37Nope. I think we got it.
00:51:41Okay.
00:51:43It says here you know how to ballroom dance.
00:51:47It does say that, yes.
00:51:53We're gonna have you read
00:51:55opposite the actor we've cast as the grandfather.
00:51:57Oh, sure.
00:52:01And where is my mark?
00:52:03Oh, yes.
00:52:05Oh, hello.
00:52:07He-he-he.
00:52:11So your name isn't White.
00:52:13Alexander Brickie III.
00:52:15He responded to a casting call
00:52:17for the role of wealthy man about town.
00:52:19Well within my range.
00:52:21I played Torvald in the Cook County Players
00:52:23production of A Doll's House.
00:52:25Met with rave reviews.
00:52:27So you didn't think it was weird
00:52:29that you were being asked to fake a heart attack?
00:52:31I don't fake anything.
00:52:33Acting's a craft.
00:52:35Oh.
00:52:37He thought the gallery was a place
00:52:39He thought the gallery was doing performance art.
00:52:41He assumed they were in on it.
00:52:43A live immersive experience
00:52:45is the way it was described.
00:52:47By who? Who hired you?
00:52:49Who? Um, a woman.
00:52:51Did you get her name?
00:52:53Oh, she may have said.
00:52:55I don't recall.
00:52:57All right, well do you have any sort of documentation
00:52:59like a pay sub or a contract?
00:53:01Oh, nothing like that.
00:53:03I got paid in cash.
00:53:05Oh, I'm afraid that's all I remember.
00:53:09Oh.
00:53:11There was one other thing.
00:53:13She had a tattoo
00:53:15on her wrist. What was it of?
00:53:17I don't know. Could you draw it?
00:53:19No, what I mean is I couldn't see it.
00:53:21It was covered up.
00:53:23So you saw a tattoo that wasn't there.
00:53:25I've been doing theater for nearly 40 years.
00:53:27I know stage
00:53:29makeup when I see it.
00:53:31Cool.
00:53:35You all like that?
00:53:39Yes.
00:53:45What?
00:53:47Yes.
00:53:49Oh.
00:53:51So I pull back the covers and right there
00:53:53is a lizard in the bed.
00:53:55No. Oh, no.
00:53:57Sam, it's about
00:53:59time you got home.
00:54:01What are you doing here? Are you kidding me?
00:54:03This is your uncle? You know my uncle
00:54:05Luis? Yes.
00:54:07Of course, because you live in Willoughby.
00:54:09Ali has been shooting
00:54:11all the station's Christmas parties
00:54:13for years. Of course. Luis makes
00:54:15an excellent elf. How nice.
00:54:17Coffee's almost ready.
00:54:19Sam, why don't you show Ali
00:54:21what you've done with the place?
00:54:23Yeah. Yeah.
00:54:25Oh, okay.
00:54:27I'll show you the living room.
00:54:29Let's just go this way and
00:54:31I'll show you.
00:54:33So yeah,
00:54:35if we just, this is
00:54:37the living room. Oh, new paint.
00:54:39Yeah, it's getting there. Right.
00:54:41Oh.
00:54:43This is interesting. Yeah, it's
00:54:45actually from my uncle Luis. He brought it
00:54:47from the islands.
00:54:49I have a friend who's an interior
00:54:51decorator if you need her number. No, no.
00:54:53I got this.
00:54:55I'm good.
00:54:57So,
00:54:59why exactly are you here?
00:55:01Well,
00:55:03please meet
00:55:05Mr. Bricky.
00:55:07Okay. He's an actor,
00:55:09mostly regional theater, but he also does commercials.
00:55:11And I care
00:55:13about this, why? Because you may know
00:55:15him better as Mr. White, and
00:55:17because he was hired to fake a
00:55:19heart attack during the Ryzen theft.
00:55:21What, hired? Mm-hmm. He doesn't
00:55:23know the name of the woman who set it up, but she did
00:55:25have a tattoo on her wrist.
00:55:27That right there is a bona fide lead.
00:55:29Miss Allie, you're amazing. I can't believe you did that.
00:55:31I don't know how I did it. Okay.
00:55:33All right, here we are.
00:55:35Steaming hot. Okay.
00:55:37Where's yours? You know I hate coffee.
00:55:41So? Okay.
00:55:43Well,
00:55:45I should definitely not be saying this,
00:55:47at least not officially.
00:55:49Nice work.
00:55:51Thank you, Detective. Thank you, Miss Adams.
00:55:53Mm-hmm.
00:55:55You remember that thing I said
00:55:57about New York coffee? Mm-hmm.
00:55:59This ain't it. Nope.
00:56:05All right, what's
00:56:07a six-letter word for a pair of teeth?
00:56:09Sherry Lane.
00:56:11Does it fit? No, no, no.
00:56:13Sherry Lane. That was five
00:56:15years ago. You know her as Sherry Carmichael.
00:56:17An app for shoplifting at Riverside Mall.
00:56:19Tattoos.
00:56:21Mm-hmm. Guess we gotta head back to the bar.
00:56:29Okay. Thanks for all your help.
00:56:33Manager says Sherry called off her shift today.
00:56:35She got a number?
00:56:37Sure does. And he's happy to give it
00:56:39to us when we come back with a warrant.
00:56:41Let's get out of here.
00:56:47Please reconsider. You have my personal
00:56:49reassurance that...
00:56:51I understand.
00:56:53Yes. Goodbye.
00:56:55It's the third exhibitor to back
00:56:57out today.
00:56:59Our entire winter schedule.
00:57:01I've hired additional security,
00:57:03installed new cameras.
00:57:05Camille, I'm so sorry.
00:57:09I opened this gallery when Noah was still
00:57:11in diapers. It's always been
00:57:13my dream.
00:57:15And now it could all go away.
00:57:17Miss Addison. Hi, Daniel Drake
00:57:19from the Gazette. We met the
00:57:21other night. I was hoping I could
00:57:23ask you a few questions about that burglary.
00:57:27I'm sorry I have no comment at this time.
00:57:29Please excuse me.
00:57:31Okay. Uh, listen.
00:57:33When she is ready to sit down,
00:57:35she can reach me at this number.
00:57:37You just don't give up, do you?
00:57:39Well, as a matter of fact, no, I don't.
00:57:41Well, Camille is a friend of mine,
00:57:43so I would appreciate it if you just left her alone, okay?
00:57:45Okay.
00:57:47But as a friend, you should let her know that
00:57:49James Risen has not been shy with his comments.
00:57:51So either she controls
00:57:53the story, or he will.
00:57:55Excuse me.
00:57:59Yeah.
00:58:01Wait, are you sure? I mean, I don't know.
00:58:03It's just, it's hard to move.
00:58:05Yeah, okay. Yeah, yeah, give it to me.
00:58:13Yeah, yeah, okay.
00:58:15Okay, I got it. Okay, bye.
00:58:37Sam.
00:58:39There's someone here to see you.
00:58:41Who?
00:58:57We just want to thank you very much for coming in.
00:58:59It really shows some good faith.
00:59:01It sure does.
00:59:03We want to help you, and make it as easy as possible.
00:59:05I appreciate that.
00:59:07Of course. All our cards are out on the table.
00:59:09We know about Mr. White
00:59:11and how he was hired for the art show
00:59:13and given very specific instructions.
00:59:15We want to help you get the best deal with the D.A.
00:59:17Deal?
00:59:19A deal, guaranteed.
00:59:21But he's going to want to sign confession.
00:59:23I'm not here to confess.
00:59:25You're not?
00:59:27No, I didn't do anything wrong.
00:59:31Oh, you think I did something wrong.
00:59:33Oh.
00:59:35Do you...
00:59:37Do you recognize this man?
00:59:39No, no.
00:59:41You have the wrong idea.
00:59:43Okay, well, then give us the right one.
00:59:45Why did you come in?
00:59:49I told you the truth
00:59:51when I said I saw Gavin
00:59:53on Friday evening.
00:59:55I worked double the night before,
00:59:57and I went to bed at eight.
00:59:59He was still home when I went to sleep.
01:00:03But I can't confirm that he stayed there.
01:00:05What, you think he left?
01:00:07I don't know.
01:00:09I mean, he said he didn't.
01:00:11But he also promised
01:00:13that he'd stop the card games in the park.
01:00:15And that was a lie.
01:00:19I have made a lot of mistakes,
01:00:21but I've tried really hard
01:00:23to fix them.
01:00:25So where's Gavin right now?
01:00:27He called out from work,
01:00:29and he's not answering his phone.
01:00:31It's like he just...
01:00:33disappeared.
01:00:47Sam, this came for you
01:00:49from the coroner's office.
01:00:51Wow.
01:00:53I didn't think that we'd get Wake's autopsy report
01:00:55until next week.
01:00:57Not Cook County, Manhattan District.
01:00:59Right.
01:01:03I'm just looking into an old cold case.
01:01:05The assistant DA?
01:01:07New York City cop drops everything
01:01:09and comes to Willow Haven.
01:01:11He asked some questions.
01:01:13It's a tough one, huh?
01:01:15Yeah.
01:01:19Her name was Gabrielle Russell.
01:01:21She was prosecuting a case.
01:01:23These thugs with mafia links
01:01:25knocked over some convenience stores.
01:01:27She'd have been a slam dunk, right?
01:01:29She wanted to go for the big fish.
01:01:33Wanted to flip them, which made everybody nervous.
01:01:37She never...
01:01:39never made it to trial.
01:01:43A car was found at the bottom of an embankment.
01:01:45Brake lines were cut.
01:01:49And he never found a body.
01:01:51There were no witnesses.
01:01:53The water washed away any physical evidence.
01:01:55Once the leads went cold,
01:01:57the department just closed the case, and that was it.
01:01:59But not for you.
01:02:01Yeah, because she dedicated her life to justice,
01:02:03and I couldn't even get that far.
01:02:05Three Jane Doe's show up,
01:02:07I pull some strings, get the files,
01:02:09and that's what that's about.
01:02:11Hey, we all have those cases.
01:02:13Yeah, well, this one's different.
01:02:15Trust me.
01:02:17I know.
01:02:25I know.
01:02:35Hi.
01:02:39Detective Acosta.
01:02:41Hi.
01:02:43I wanted to speak to you in person.
01:02:45I tried calling your house, but your uncle said
01:02:47you were still at work.
01:02:49Ah. Okay.
01:02:51Well,
01:02:53what can I do for you?
01:02:55No, it's not what you can do for me.
01:02:57It's what I can do for you.
01:02:59Allie, you gotta stop.
01:03:01Look, this is all my fault, okay?
01:03:03I...
01:03:05I encouraged it, but I should've stopped it
01:03:07a long time ago.
01:03:09You cannot be involved in any of this.
01:03:11Oh, well, I mean, it's a little late for that.
01:03:13This isn't a game, Allie.
01:03:15We're likely dealing with some serious career criminals,
01:03:17dangerous people.
01:03:19Ew, I can take care of myself.
01:03:21The man is dead.
01:03:25See, I thought that this is what we did.
01:03:27You know, you and me together, we help each other out.
01:03:29Kind of like partners.
01:03:31No.
01:03:33No, no, no, no, no, no.
01:03:35You and me,
01:03:37we're not partners.
01:03:39Look, if you wanna help,
01:03:41then drop it, and let me do my job.
01:03:51All right.
01:04:21All right.
01:04:51All right.
01:05:21All right.
01:05:51Busy place tonight, huh?
01:05:55What are you doing here?
01:05:57Well, I could ask you the same thing.
01:05:59I'm just following up on a lead.
01:06:01Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
01:06:03Where'd you get this lead?
01:06:05It's confidential.
01:06:07Right.
01:06:11That dog is 50 feet away.
01:06:13You'll be lucky to get anything
01:06:15other than a blurry face with bat lines.
01:06:17This isn't my first takeout.
01:06:27So what are we waiting for?
01:06:29You know, I've been asking myself that very same thing
01:06:31since the moment we met.
01:06:33No, I mean,
01:06:35what is happening on Dock 3
01:06:37at 10 p.m.?
01:06:39I got a tip.
01:06:41Who's such a hothead?
01:06:43Damn.
01:06:45I got a tip.
01:06:47With such a high-profile necklace,
01:06:49there's very few players capable
01:06:51of fencing it under the radar.
01:06:53And you didn't think to bring this to the police?
01:06:55Well, I don't make a habit of burning my sources.
01:06:57Besides, the police can read all about it
01:06:59in the afternoon edition.
01:07:01If your guy shows up.
01:07:03No, no, not if.
01:07:05When.
01:07:07She has this infuriating
01:07:09habit of just showing up
01:07:11at crime scenes.
01:07:13It's like she can't just leave
01:07:15well enough alone.
01:07:17If I didn't know any better,
01:07:19I'd think she was actively
01:07:21seeking out trouble.
01:07:23Sounds like someone I know.
01:07:25No, no, no, no, no.
01:07:27It's different, okay?
01:07:29It's my job.
01:07:31Allie's smart.
01:07:33You're just not giving her enough credit.
01:07:35I am just trying to protect her.
01:07:37By pushing her away.
01:07:39By pushing everyone away.
01:07:41It's gonna be
01:07:43a lonely ride if you do.
01:07:53Eleven o'clock.
01:07:57I guess I got cold feet.
01:07:59Or I got bad information.
01:08:05Let's go.
01:08:11Sorry your lead fizzled out.
01:08:13Well, it wasn't a total loss.
01:08:15You figure.
01:08:17Good company.
01:08:19Hey, are you free tomorrow night?
01:08:21Oh, for another stakeout?
01:08:23No, for a date.
01:08:25Oh.
01:08:27Yeah, yeah, you're
01:08:29seeing somebody.
01:08:31Of course you are.
01:08:33It's just kind of complicated.
01:08:35Yeah, no, no, no, I get it, I get it.
01:08:37Uh, listen, this has been fun.
01:08:39Goodnight.
01:08:53My phone.
01:09:03Ah!
01:09:15Thought I heard something.
01:09:21Kill the light, will you?
01:09:25Come on.
01:09:33Come on.
01:09:51Ah!
01:09:53Would you stop doing that?
01:09:55Isn't it a little late to be taking pictures?
01:10:03Oh.
01:10:13Well, looks like we've got ourselves
01:10:15a party crasher.
01:10:17She's the girl
01:10:19from the security company.
01:10:21No, she's the wedding photographer.
01:10:23So which one is it?
01:10:25Both, actually. I like to multitask.
01:10:27What are you doing out here?
01:10:29I was taking pictures of the water.
01:10:31Sometimes people don't like having their picture taken.
01:10:35Gerard will be here soon.
01:10:37He might take off if he sees her.
01:10:39What do you suggest we do?
01:10:41Well, I suggest
01:10:43that we take care of her.
01:10:45Whoa, I didn't sign up for that.
01:10:47Oh, let's not be hasty about this.
01:10:49I'm sure there's another way.
01:10:51Sure.
01:10:53Ask Thomas if there's another way.
01:10:55No loose ends.
01:10:57I cleaned up one mess.
01:10:59I'll clean up another.
01:11:01Hello?
01:11:13You said there'd be three.
01:11:15She's no one.
01:11:17Thanks.
01:11:19Shut up.
01:11:21Show him.
01:11:23Hmm.
01:11:25Nice.
01:11:27Very, very nice.
01:11:29Ow!
01:11:31Get the necklace!
01:11:33Grab her!
01:11:35Split up!
01:11:41Amateurs.
01:11:53Go.
01:12:01Going somewhere?
01:12:03Help!
01:12:05You can scream all you want.
01:12:07See, the security guard's with us.
01:12:09Police!
01:12:11Hands where I can see them.
01:12:13Well, looks like we've found ourselves
01:12:15in quite a complicated situation, officer.
01:12:17Not really.
01:12:19Just let her go.
01:12:21Ow!
01:12:33Come back where tide's low?
01:12:35Hey, where's the necklace?
01:12:37Where's the girl?
01:12:39Swimming.
01:12:41Let's get out of here before more cops show up.
01:12:43Police?
01:12:45Drop your weapon, hands in the air.
01:12:47Why don't you drop yours?
01:12:49This is my property.
01:12:51Don't make me ask you again.
01:12:53That was three against one.
01:12:55I like those odds.
01:12:57Better count again.
01:12:59Told you.
01:13:01Drop it.
01:13:07Run back!
01:13:11Allie, Allie, Allie, Allie, Allie.
01:13:13What?
01:13:15You okay?
01:13:17I thought you were...
01:13:23I was on the varsity swim team.
01:13:35Okay.
01:13:37Okay, we should go.
01:13:39We should go.
01:13:47I...
01:13:49I want my lawyer.
01:14:11I'll tell you anything you want to know.
01:14:18When Patrick Risen decided to steal his brother's prized possession,
01:14:22the first call he made was to Clint Baxter.
01:14:25Baxter had a reputation of delivering complicated acquisitions
01:14:28because you can't put professional thief on a business card.
01:14:31His next call was to Thomas Wake,
01:14:33an old schoolmate desperate for a financial boost.
01:14:37And with her relentless pursuit of the necklace,
01:14:39they found a perfect one in Gwendolyn Cox.
01:14:42Thomas recruits Gavin Carmichael to lift Camille's card
01:14:45having first-hand experience with his abilities.
01:14:48They knew the layout and protocols thanks to Griff Rickard.
01:14:51Clint brought him into the fold
01:14:53after hearing his falling out with the Midnight Gallery.
01:14:58Everything had to be timed to the second for this to work.
01:15:05The blackout gave them less than a minute of controlled chaos.
01:15:08But for somebody like Clint, that was more than enough.
01:15:12Alexander Bricky, an actor who believed he had been hired
01:15:15for some performance art piece, provides additional distraction
01:15:18and a way to slip the necklace out, unnoticed.
01:15:23Using the paramedics' bag.
01:15:26All they had to do now was cover their tracks.
01:15:31Patrick and Clint stay behind
01:15:33to ensure that they are frisked and questioned by the police,
01:15:36thus cementing their alibis.
01:15:39The necklace is taken from the gallery by the unsuspecting paramedic.
01:15:50And Griff and Gavin make a clean getaway with the necklace.
01:15:56And Thomas Wake?
01:15:58He made a critical error. He fell in love.
01:16:01Rookie mistake.
01:16:03Thomas couldn't follow through with the frame job on Gwendolyn.
01:16:06He missed the rendezvous. They sent Clint to check on him.
01:16:09He went through the back door to avoid suspicion.
01:16:12Thomas told him he wanted out, so he killed him.
01:16:15After years of stealing from the rich and powerful,
01:16:18he knew exactly how to leave a crime scene without a trace.
01:16:27Here you go. Thank you.
01:16:29How are you feeling? A lot drier.
01:16:32Hey, um, I'm, uh, I'm really happy that you're okay.
01:16:35Well, thanks to you.
01:16:38Did you guys find the missing necklace?
01:16:40Yes, we did. Good.
01:16:42The divers found it pretty quickly.
01:16:44And James Risen's assistant, she's here.
01:16:46She ID'd it, so we're good to go.
01:16:48I think we're all gonna be pretty happy to put this one to bed.
01:16:58I think you have one more stop to make, Detective.
01:17:03Just take a look here.
01:17:08Detectives!
01:17:10I didn't expect you to deliver the necklace to me personally.
01:17:13Oh, no. We are not dropping off, Mr. Risen.
01:17:16We're picking out.
01:17:20I'm afraid I don't understand.
01:17:22Well, you'll have plenty of time to mull it over on the way to the station.
01:17:25James Risen, you're under arrest.
01:17:28On what charge?
01:17:30Let's start with fraud and then go from there.
01:17:33You have the right to remain silent.
01:17:35Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
01:17:38You have the right to an attorney.
01:17:42So James Risen stole the necklace from himself.
01:17:45He was the real mastermind behind the whole thing.
01:17:47He had a $10 million policy he was looking to collect.
01:17:49Which is insurance fraud.
01:17:51And a black market buyer overseas.
01:17:53Combined, he stood to make double the value.
01:17:55Wow.
01:17:57Whatever Risen did to your reputation, it's not going to last.
01:18:01I can't thank you enough.
01:18:03Both of you.
01:18:05How about dinner? My treat.
01:18:07Brain check? I have to be somewhere.
01:18:09She's got a date.
01:18:10Oh.
01:18:11It's not a date. It's coffee.
01:18:13Okay, then can I come?
01:18:14No.
01:18:15Enjoy your date.
01:18:17It's coffee.
01:18:27Okay.
01:18:57Hey.
01:19:15Hey, hi.
01:19:16Yo, what's up?
01:19:18Will you pass me the remote?
01:19:20I want to watch my show.
01:19:21Yeah. Wait, your show?
01:19:23Yeah.
01:19:24Today is the big wedding.
01:19:26Between the nurse and the ambulance driver.
01:19:28They met during a big thunderstorm.
01:19:30And it was love at first sight.
01:19:32But then he got kidnapped.
01:19:34Wait, wait, wait. This sounds like a telenovela.
01:19:36Well, it is.
01:19:37Since when do you watch soap operas?
01:19:39Well, let's see.
01:19:41I retired on a Monday.
01:19:43Okay.
01:19:44So it would have been on a Tuesday.
01:19:47Hey, I thought you had a coffee date.
01:19:49Yeah, I changed my mind.
01:19:51Oh, yeah?
01:19:53Yeah.
01:19:54You know, I don't feel like coffee.
01:19:56Mm-mm.
01:19:59You know, when your tÃa Carmen passed,
01:20:01I didn't want to see anybody.
01:20:03I didn't even want to leave the house.
01:20:05Wait, really?
01:20:06Mm-hmm, yeah.
01:20:07But you know what changed my mind?
01:20:09What?
01:20:10I kept imagining that I could hear her voice speaking to me.
01:20:16And you know what she would say?
01:20:18What'd she say?
01:20:19Luis, get out of the house! Get off that couch!
01:20:22Go do something for crying out loud.
01:20:24Stop feeling sorry for yourself.
01:20:28The thing is, stuff happens.
01:20:31Some of it's good, some of it's bad.
01:20:34But the one sure thing is, you got to keep going.
01:20:39Even if it's just for coffee.
01:20:49Hey.
01:20:50Hi.
01:20:51I am, uh, I'm so sorry I'm late.
01:20:54Um, hi.
01:20:55Hi.
01:20:56Honestly, I didn't think you were going to make it.
01:21:00Uh, you know, actually, uh, I wasn't.
01:21:04Okay.
01:21:05Well, what made you change your mind?
01:21:08I don't know.
01:21:09I don't know.
01:21:10I don't know.
01:21:11I don't know.
01:21:12I don't know.
01:21:13I don't know.
01:21:14I don't know.
01:21:15I don't know.
01:21:16I don't know.
01:21:17I don't know.
01:21:18What made you change your mind?
01:21:19Okay, well, um, the thing is, I, uh...
01:21:29You promised me a great cup of coffee.
01:21:31Are you still going to deliver?
01:21:34Well, I always keep my promises.
01:21:36Good.
01:21:37I'm counting on it.
01:21:48Next Sunday Night at 9, Jesse Metcalf returns in an all-new Martha's Vineyard Mystery.
