1
00:00:39,639 --> 00:00:42,574
Spare five bucks
for breakfast?
2
00:00:42,642 --> 00:00:44,777
Oh!
3
00:00:44,844 --> 00:00:48,047
Elvis?
4
00:00:48,081 --> 00:00:50,749
Elvis... Jones?
5
00:00:50,817 --> 00:00:54,953
- Abby Knight!
- How are you?
6
00:00:55,021 --> 00:00:57,689
I'm good, real good!
7
00:00:57,757 --> 00:01:01,894
Uh... not really.
I'm... not good at all.
8
00:01:01,961 --> 00:01:06,065
- Elvis Jones.
- You took me to senior prom.
9
00:01:06,132 --> 00:01:07,933
I remember.
10
00:01:08,001 --> 00:01:11,804
- You were a real gentleman.
- We had so much fun that night.
11
00:01:11,871 --> 00:01:14,073
I lost track of you
after school.
12
00:01:14,107 --> 00:01:16,809
Yeah, well,
after school, I...
13
00:01:16,876 --> 00:01:20,679
kicked around a little.
Some bad choices,
14
00:01:20,747 --> 00:01:23,415
then in and out of
the system. Mostly in.
15
00:01:23,450 --> 00:01:26,051
I just got back
from a year of that.
16
00:01:26,086 --> 00:01:28,821
- I'm sorry, Elvis.
- Is this your shop?
17
00:01:28,888 --> 00:01:32,191
Yeah, it's new. But it's mine.
18
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,396
Hey, you know what? I kind
of look at life like, um...
19
00:01:37,464 --> 00:01:39,998
lilies. They're perennials.
20
00:01:40,066 --> 00:01:44,002
So if they don't bloom one year,
they always have the next year.
21
00:01:44,070 --> 00:01:46,605
They always have another chance.
22
00:01:46,639 --> 00:01:49,408
- Yeah. Lilies.
- That's cool.
23
00:01:49,476 --> 00:01:51,877
Thanks for that.
24
00:01:51,911 --> 00:01:54,746
I'm optimistic. Things
are gonna change for me.
25
00:01:54,814 --> 00:01:58,884
- Hey look, here. Here's ten.
- Thank you.
26
00:01:58,952 --> 00:02:01,053
Take care of yourself, Elvis.
27
00:02:04,023 --> 00:02:07,059
- Let me help you with that.
- Oh!
28
00:02:07,127 --> 00:02:09,595
Thank you.
29
00:02:40,493 --> 00:02:43,128
- Hey.
- Oh, Nikki, in a million years,
30
00:02:43,196 --> 00:02:46,732
you are never going to believe
who I saw this morning.
31
00:02:46,799 --> 00:02:50,302
- Elvis Jones.
- Wha... how do you do that?
32
00:02:50,370 --> 00:02:53,405
I saw him too.
33
00:02:53,473 --> 00:02:56,475
We dated. Model UN.
34
00:02:56,543 --> 00:02:59,678
And now... he just
got out of jail.
35
00:02:59,746 --> 00:03:02,481
Yeah, a year for
breaking and entering.
36
00:03:04,384 --> 00:03:07,586
- He asked me for money.
- What, like a hold-up?
37
00:03:07,654 --> 00:03:10,122
No, like a handout.
38
00:03:10,190 --> 00:03:13,959
He clearly needed it.
I gave him ten bucks.
39
00:03:14,027 --> 00:03:16,428
Ten bucks?!
40
00:03:16,462 --> 00:03:18,463
That's a nice breakfast.
41
00:03:18,531 --> 00:03:21,200
Man...
42
00:03:21,267 --> 00:03:24,903
He was a good kisser.
43
00:03:24,971 --> 00:03:28,140
Oh... Oh, wow!
44
00:03:28,208 --> 00:03:31,276
Fifteen orders so far.
That's pretty great
45
00:03:31,344 --> 00:03:33,812
- for a Tuesday.
- Yeah.
46
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,815
Look, four of the arrangements
are from...
47
00:03:36,849 --> 00:03:39,518
that cheating dentist
over on Sair.
48
00:03:39,586 --> 00:03:41,687
Guilt roses.
49
00:03:41,754 --> 00:03:44,223
I almost feel guilty
delivering them.
50
00:03:44,257 --> 00:03:47,159
I gotta jump out at noon.
51
00:03:47,193 --> 00:03:49,995
- Mother-daughter lunch.
- Ah, see,
52
00:03:50,063 --> 00:03:52,297
I told you Mills College was
a perfect choice for Sydney.
53
00:03:52,365 --> 00:03:55,901
Far enough away to live on campus,
but close enough for Mom to drop in.
54
00:03:58,037 --> 00:04:01,540
- So, are you eating right?
- Exercising,
55
00:04:01,608 --> 00:04:05,544
- getting enough sleep?
- Yes, I am, when I can.
56
00:04:05,578 --> 00:04:08,647
I'm so busy
with the flower shop,
57
00:04:08,681 --> 00:04:11,750
the empty nest,
the moving on...
58
00:04:11,818 --> 00:04:14,720
Don't make me worry about you.
59
00:04:14,787 --> 00:04:18,056
Oh, you're being
the mom, I'm sorry.
60
00:04:18,124 --> 00:04:21,193
OK, OK, look, I'm fine.
61
00:04:21,261 --> 00:04:24,963
What about you, huh? How you
doing? Semester's still tough?
62
00:04:24,998 --> 00:04:27,766
Some days I really
wonder why I'm pre-law.
63
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,436
Right now, the only bar I can conceive passing
is the kind with darts and a happy hour.
64
00:04:31,504 --> 00:04:34,740
I passed it; you'll pass it,
65
00:04:34,807 --> 00:04:37,009
OK? It's a few years off anyway.
66
00:04:37,076 --> 00:04:39,611
What if I end up working
in law as long as you did,
67
00:04:39,679 --> 00:04:42,180
and then end up
leaving it like you did?
68
00:04:42,248 --> 00:04:45,250
I left when I felt I had
stopped making a difference.
69
00:04:45,318 --> 00:04:48,320
Doesn't mean you will.
And when Dad died,
70
00:04:48,354 --> 00:04:51,690
none of it just seemed
as important.
71
00:04:51,758 --> 00:04:54,359
I think you miss it
a little bit.
72
00:04:54,427 --> 00:04:57,829
Just...
73
00:05:14,914 --> 00:05:18,984
Hey, Nikki, I'm back. I'm just
gonna run and get us some coffee,
74
00:05:19,052 --> 00:05:23,188
so... call me if you...
You know what?
75
00:05:23,256 --> 00:05:25,724
I'll get you coffee, but... Oh!
76
00:05:28,227 --> 00:05:31,229
84A1G...
77
00:05:31,297 --> 00:05:33,532
You idiot!
78
00:05:33,599 --> 00:05:35,767
Oh, no!
79
00:05:39,772 --> 00:05:43,909
- So you didn't see who did this.
- No, it all happened so fast,
80
00:05:43,976 --> 00:05:46,345
him racing out of
the alley... Thank you.
81
00:05:46,412 --> 00:05:49,047
Maybe he was
wearing a jacket
82
00:05:49,082 --> 00:05:52,684
with some kind of a logo on it,
and maybe he had, like,
83
00:05:52,719 --> 00:05:56,054
- curly dark hair.
- That's a lot of maybes.
84
00:05:56,122 --> 00:05:58,323
I just came
from New York.
85
00:05:58,391 --> 00:06:01,259
I've had that car since
before Sydney was born,
86
00:06:01,294 --> 00:06:03,662
not a scratch on it,
and now this.
87
00:06:03,696 --> 00:06:07,032
Just give the police a chance,
Abs. Maybe they'll find the guy.
88
00:06:07,100 --> 00:06:10,135
I have a feeling I'd ID the guy
faster if I put my mind to it.
89
00:06:10,203 --> 00:06:13,805
- OK, Sherlock.
- But before you do that,
90
00:06:13,873 --> 00:06:16,708
could you do me a favor first?
91
00:06:16,776 --> 00:06:19,211
Oh, I know that look.
92
00:06:19,245 --> 00:06:22,381
What do you want me to do that you know I don't
want to do but you'll get me to do anyway?
93
00:06:22,448 --> 00:06:25,751
- Good. Do you remember my cousin Penny?
- You've got so many.
94
00:06:25,818 --> 00:06:29,755
- Penny! Penny, with the hair...
- Oh, pixie? OK, yeah. - Yes!
95
00:06:29,789 --> 00:06:33,658
She was asking for some legal
advice and I thought of you.
96
00:06:33,726 --> 00:06:36,228
- I don't do that anymore.
- Come on! You know you hate
97
00:06:36,295 --> 00:06:39,064
to let all that amazing hard-
earned knowledge go to waste.
98
00:06:39,098 --> 00:06:41,099
All right, tell her
to stop by tomorrow.
99
00:06:41,167 --> 00:06:43,168
Great. I told her
you would say that.
100
00:06:43,202 --> 00:06:46,238
Why do you even ask?
101
00:06:46,305 --> 00:06:50,308
Hi, um, I'm just looking for the
owner of the... dented Mercedes?
102
00:06:50,343 --> 00:06:54,713
- Could be your lucky day after all.
- That's me. I'm Abby Knight.
103
00:06:54,781 --> 00:06:57,416
- I'm also the owner of Bloomers.
- Hi. Marco Salvare.
104
00:06:57,483 --> 00:06:59,618
Nice to meet you. - I'm the new
owner of the Chicago Bar and Grill.
105
00:06:59,652 --> 00:07:01,787
Oh, excellent,
we're neighbors!
106
00:07:01,821 --> 00:07:04,289
Nikki Bender,
assistant manager.
107
00:07:04,357 --> 00:07:07,993
Nice to meet you, Nikki Bender. That's
quite a handshake. So, listen, Abby,
108
00:07:08,060 --> 00:07:11,663
I saw you talking to the cop outside and I
just wanted to make sure everything was OK.
109
00:07:11,731 --> 00:07:15,667
Well, it would be great if I had the
complete license plate of the driver
110
00:07:15,735 --> 00:07:18,036
who hit me. - I can help
you get that information.
111
00:07:18,104 --> 00:07:21,039
Uh... how would you do that,
if you don't mind me asking?
112
00:07:21,107 --> 00:07:23,608
Well, you know, once a private
eye, always a private eye.
113
00:07:23,676 --> 00:07:27,345
- You're a private...
- Abby was a lawyer.
114
00:07:27,380 --> 00:07:30,081
- Was. - You would be a good team.
- I have a friend at the DMV.
115
00:07:30,149 --> 00:07:33,885
I can give her a call and she can help me
with those numbers. - That would be great!
116
00:07:33,953 --> 00:07:36,822
Um, can I tell you what
the license plate...
117
00:07:36,889 --> 00:07:39,858
- Sure.
- It's in the message.
118
00:07:48,201 --> 00:07:52,270
- Yeah, then there's a lot of bad words.
- OK, I got it.
119
00:07:52,338 --> 00:07:54,539
So, how can I repay you?
120
00:07:54,607 --> 00:07:59,077
Oh! Um, how about a dozen
roses? Purple, for passion.
121
00:07:59,145 --> 00:08:02,314
- Well, purple's for enchantment.
- Red's for passion.
122
00:08:02,381 --> 00:08:04,449
Dark red if
she's really special.
123
00:08:04,517 --> 00:08:07,152
Alright, then dark red it is. Can
you guys deliver to my bar? - Sure.
124
00:08:07,220 --> 00:08:10,155
And if I don't find the name of the
driver, trust me, you can bill me.
125
00:08:10,189 --> 00:08:13,525
- Fair enough. - Great. Nice to meet you.
- Thank you.
126
00:08:13,559 --> 00:08:16,628
You as well. All right.
127
00:08:16,662 --> 00:08:19,498
- Ciao, ladies. Have a good day.
- Bye-bye!
128
00:08:19,532 --> 00:08:22,501
Oh... my!
129
00:08:23,402 --> 00:08:25,704
You are married!
130
00:08:25,738 --> 00:08:29,241
OK, I was just window-
shopping. You can actually buy.
131
00:08:29,308 --> 00:08:31,643
Have you been talking to my daughter?
132
00:08:34,647 --> 00:08:38,483
What's that?
133
00:08:38,551 --> 00:08:40,752
Hold on just a second.
134
00:08:40,786 --> 00:08:43,321
I'll be right back.
135
00:08:45,758 --> 00:08:48,593
Officer Dunn? What happened?
136
00:08:48,661 --> 00:08:52,097
- Would you come with me? - What? Where?
- I'll explain on the way.
137
00:08:52,164 --> 00:08:55,667
What's going on? - We found a dead body
on Tanner Street. Eyewitness saw a man
138
00:08:55,735 --> 00:08:59,271
running from the old Hampton Arms headed up
the alley, the one that lets out right there.
139
00:08:59,338 --> 00:09:03,542
When? - A few hours
ago, around the time...
140
00:09:03,609 --> 00:09:07,579
My car was hit. Um, OK, let me get
my coat and I'll be right back.
141
00:09:07,647 --> 00:09:11,383
OK. That's affirmative. We're
on the way. Yeah, coming in.
142
00:09:16,656 --> 00:09:19,324
Thank you.
143
00:09:24,230 --> 00:09:26,932
Detective Corbison.
144
00:09:26,966 --> 00:09:29,067
- So, you're the one with the hit-and-run.
- Yeah.
145
00:09:29,135 --> 00:09:32,537
- What can you tell us about the driver?
- Not too much, but I believe
146
00:09:32,605 --> 00:09:36,942
he was driving a black Escalade. I got a partial
license plate and I've already given that to...
147
00:09:36,976 --> 00:09:40,445
We got that already. - Detective,
I've got another witness.
148
00:09:40,513 --> 00:09:44,115
She saw Elvis Jones leave this place
around noon today. - Elvis Jones?
149
00:09:44,150 --> 00:09:47,852
- Is he a suspect? - Why, you know him?
- For years.
150
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:52,290
In fact, I just spoke
with him this morning.
151
00:09:52,325 --> 00:09:55,393
- What time?
- Um, right before
152
00:09:55,461 --> 00:09:57,829
I opened my shop,
so a little before 9.
153
00:09:57,863 --> 00:10:01,399
That would give him plenty of time to
kill someone. - Trust me, Detective,
154
00:10:01,467 --> 00:10:04,235
Elvis Jones was not the guy
I saw coming out of the alley.
155
00:10:04,270 --> 00:10:07,973
I didn't say he was. Bring
Jones in for questioning.
156
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,208
I think you're making
a terrible mistake.
157
00:10:10,276 --> 00:10:13,078
Thanks for your time,
Ms. Knight.
158
00:10:13,145 --> 00:10:16,781
If you think of anything
relevant, give me a call.
159
00:10:24,423 --> 00:10:27,792
- Look at you, just...
- business as usual,
160
00:10:27,860 --> 00:10:31,630
as if you weren't just hanging
out at a murder scene.
161
00:10:31,697 --> 00:10:33,732
Something doesn't fit, Nik.
162
00:10:33,799 --> 00:10:36,034
And I hate mums, OK?
163
00:10:36,068 --> 00:10:39,437
- Whoa, hey, easy!
- They're just flowers.
164
00:10:39,505 --> 00:10:44,242
Elvis is a disaster,
but he's not a murderer.
165
00:10:44,310 --> 00:10:46,611
Well, he has a record,
166
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,347
he's served time,
167
00:10:49,415 --> 00:10:51,816
he's broke...
168
00:10:51,851 --> 00:10:54,252
It's not impossible.
169
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,588
High school was ages ago, Abs.
170
00:10:56,622 --> 00:10:59,124
Bring this over to Marco.
171
00:10:59,191 --> 00:11:01,860
- Ha, ha, ha!
- Me? No, no, no.
172
00:11:01,894 --> 00:11:04,763
You are gonna bring this
over to Marco. Come on.
173
00:11:04,830 --> 00:11:08,333
- I... - Just...
- OK, fine. Traitor.
174
00:11:08,367 --> 00:11:10,702
Just fix your hair
a little bit.
175
00:11:10,736 --> 00:11:13,071
Oh, you look nice.
176
00:11:21,814 --> 00:11:24,849
Now this is
what I call service.
177
00:11:24,917 --> 00:11:28,219
- Oh! Here you go.
- Thank you. They're beautiful.
178
00:11:28,287 --> 00:11:31,956
Can I get you a drink?
Let's say pinot grigio.
179
00:11:31,991 --> 00:11:34,893
- Beer. Draft.
- OK.
180
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,262
Hi, Emily. Can I get a couple
pints, please? Thanks.
181
00:11:39,198 --> 00:11:43,234
Look, I can't stay very long. - But you
look like you wanna talk about something.
182
00:11:43,302 --> 00:11:46,604
Can we sit? - I don't know,
do you have a reservation?
183
00:11:46,672 --> 00:11:49,808
- I'm kidding. Of course we can sit.
- Thank you.
184
00:11:53,512 --> 00:11:57,816
- So what's up?
- OK, here's the thing.
185
00:11:57,883 --> 00:12:01,653
Getting information about that SUV
might be a little bit tricky.
186
00:12:01,687 --> 00:12:03,588
OK, how so?
187
00:12:03,622 --> 00:12:06,224
Have you heard
about the murder?
188
00:12:06,292 --> 00:12:08,560
Uh, yeah, I mean, that's what
everyone's talking about.
189
00:12:08,627 --> 00:12:11,930
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
190
00:12:11,964 --> 00:12:15,266
Alright, well, did you hear
that a suspect was seen
191
00:12:15,301 --> 00:12:17,302
coming out of the alley
192
00:12:17,369 --> 00:12:19,571
just around the same time
that my car was hit?
193
00:12:19,638 --> 00:12:23,208
- Well, it could be a coincidence, Abby.
- Or not.
194
00:12:23,275 --> 00:12:25,143
You like to meddle,
don't you?
195
00:12:25,211 --> 00:12:28,580
OK, first of all,
I hate that word.
196
00:12:28,647 --> 00:12:31,216
And... where do we go from here?
197
00:12:31,283 --> 00:12:34,486
Oh, we are not going anywhere,
but I'm gonna go down to the DMV
198
00:12:34,553 --> 00:12:36,554
and see if my contact there
found anything.
199
00:12:36,589 --> 00:12:39,124
Is that who
the flowers are for?
200
00:12:39,191 --> 00:12:42,560
No, but that's
not a bad idea.
201
00:12:42,628 --> 00:12:46,531
- OK, so, uh...
- what's my assignment?
202
00:12:46,599 --> 00:12:48,666
Your assignment, Abby,
is to go back to work
203
00:12:48,734 --> 00:12:52,504
- and stay out of trouble.
- Cheers.
204
00:13:41,787 --> 00:13:43,955
- Latte, please.
- Abby.
205
00:13:43,989 --> 00:13:47,325
Hey. Our new florist out
for a morning latte.
206
00:13:47,359 --> 00:13:50,795
That's what I love
about small towns.
207
00:13:50,863 --> 00:13:52,831
If you don't know
what you're doing,
208
00:13:52,865 --> 00:13:54,766
- someone else tells you.
- Oh, you love it here,
209
00:13:54,834 --> 00:13:56,868
otherwise you never would've
left that big bad city.
210
00:13:56,902 --> 00:13:59,437
Big, yes. Bad, no.
211
00:13:59,505 --> 00:14:01,940
I'm glad to be back.
212
00:14:02,007 --> 00:14:05,310
So how's the flower game?
213
00:14:05,377 --> 00:14:08,279
- Blossoming?
- Really?
214
00:14:08,347 --> 00:14:11,249
That's the best joke a smart
aleck like you can come up with?
215
00:14:11,317 --> 00:14:13,718
It's great.
How's the DA's office?
216
00:14:13,786 --> 00:14:17,121
Never a dull moment. - Like
the murder at the Hampton Arms?
217
00:14:17,189 --> 00:14:21,659
Sure, for example. - Any
updates for a curious florist?
218
00:14:21,727 --> 00:14:25,263
Opportunist. - Well, I
might wanna send flowers.
219
00:14:25,331 --> 00:14:28,099
Well, we did
just ID the victim.
220
00:14:28,167 --> 00:14:30,401
His name hasn't been
released yet.
221
00:14:30,469 --> 00:14:33,972
Some 20-year-old kid who'd
just moved into the building.
222
00:14:34,006 --> 00:14:37,208
Have you heard anything
about a suspect
223
00:14:37,276 --> 00:14:39,644
who took off in
a black Escalade?
224
00:14:39,712 --> 00:14:43,781
- Should I have? - Don't ask me.
- Ask Detective Corbison.
225
00:14:43,849 --> 00:14:45,950
This is me.
226
00:14:47,853 --> 00:14:50,288
Well, hey, is there a chance
that maybe we could
227
00:14:50,356 --> 00:14:52,991
grab a drink one night, you
know, talk about old times?
228
00:14:53,058 --> 00:14:56,227
Oh, uh, I'm really
buried at the shop.
229
00:14:56,295 --> 00:14:59,230
Things are really sprouting.
I haven't "botany" time.
230
00:14:59,298 --> 00:15:03,134
- Yeah, I get it. OK, no more.
- I'll leaf you with that, OK?
231
00:15:03,202 --> 00:15:06,871
- You're a tough woman.
- No! Bye, Greg. - Bye.
232
00:15:11,510 --> 00:15:14,779
I am sorry. I'm late.
233
00:15:14,847 --> 00:15:16,781
But...
234
00:15:16,815 --> 00:15:19,384
I came bearing caffeine.
235
00:15:19,418 --> 00:15:22,553
- Oh my gosh, thank you. I love you.
- Thank you.
236
00:15:22,621 --> 00:15:26,124
Oh, uh... you got
a phone call.
237
00:15:26,158 --> 00:15:29,360
- A Detective Corbison.
- Hmm!
238
00:15:29,428 --> 00:15:31,763
I hope he wants
an arrangement.
239
00:15:31,797 --> 00:15:34,999
"Detective Corbison
240
00:15:35,067 --> 00:15:37,402
"leaving on vacation.
Any info or questions,
241
00:15:37,469 --> 00:15:40,705
call Detective Brand".
He's going on vacation
242
00:15:40,773 --> 00:15:43,775
in the middle of a murder
investigation?
243
00:15:43,809 --> 00:15:46,177
Well, maybe he had
244
00:15:46,245 --> 00:15:49,847
- non-refundable plane tickets or something.
- Yeah, or something.
245
00:15:49,915 --> 00:15:52,283
Hey, can you tell me something?
246
00:15:52,351 --> 00:15:55,153
Did everyone I went
to high school with
247
00:15:55,220 --> 00:15:57,655
move back? You're not gonna believe
who I ran into at Twigg's.
248
00:15:57,690 --> 00:16:00,658
OK, no, let me tell you.
Greg Morgan.
249
00:16:00,726 --> 00:16:03,628
- Gorgeous Greg?
- Mm-hmm.
250
00:16:03,662 --> 00:16:05,964
I don't know who had the
bigger crush on him, you or me.
251
00:16:06,031 --> 00:16:09,867
Oh, you, by far. You told me
not to or we'd never be friends.
252
00:16:09,935 --> 00:16:12,937
- I... I did?
- Ha, yeah, you did.
253
00:16:12,972 --> 00:16:15,606
Well, he's divorced.
254
00:16:15,641 --> 00:16:18,009
Honey, the only thing
that interests me
255
00:16:18,043 --> 00:16:21,179
about Assistant DA Greg Morgan is
what he can tell me about the murder.
256
00:16:21,246 --> 00:16:23,881
So you are playing detective.
257
00:16:23,949 --> 00:16:27,218
- Well, I just wanna know who hit my car.
- Mm-hmm.
258
00:16:27,286 --> 00:16:31,155
And why Elvis
is a suspect, and...
259
00:16:31,190 --> 00:16:33,424
why there was a murder.
260
00:16:33,492 --> 00:16:36,160
Abs!
261
00:16:36,228 --> 00:16:39,263
OK, seriously.
262
00:16:39,331 --> 00:16:41,199
Just...
263
00:16:41,266 --> 00:16:43,134
be careful, OK?
264
00:16:43,202 --> 00:16:45,636
I just got
my best friend back,
265
00:16:45,704 --> 00:16:47,705
and I would really
like to keep her.
266
00:16:47,773 --> 00:16:50,141
I promise.
267
00:16:50,209 --> 00:16:52,443
Promise.
268
00:16:52,478 --> 00:16:54,479
OK.
269
00:17:01,053 --> 00:17:04,022
Seriously?
270
00:17:10,496 --> 00:17:12,363
Hey, neighbor.
271
00:17:12,431 --> 00:17:15,166
Oh. It's you.
272
00:17:15,234 --> 00:17:20,071
You don't seem so enthused. - I'm sorry, I just
got a ticket when there was still time left.
273
00:17:20,105 --> 00:17:23,007
- That's fine, just fight it.
- I will. - Good.
274
00:17:23,042 --> 00:17:27,078
So, how'd it go with your
friend at the DMV? Any news?
275
00:17:27,112 --> 00:17:29,714
Oh yeah, we're actually gonna
meet tonight. I'll keep you posted.
276
00:17:29,748 --> 00:17:33,951
- None of the gory details, OK? Just...
- if you hear something. - Will do.
277
00:17:34,019 --> 00:17:38,322
Did you know that the lead detective
on the murder case went on vacation?
278
00:17:38,357 --> 00:17:41,926
I did, actually. Did you know
they ID'd the victim?
279
00:17:41,994 --> 00:17:44,095
- Yes.
- Really?
280
00:17:44,129 --> 00:17:48,366
- Uh-huh. Did you know his name?
- Billy Ryan.
281
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,203
- Wait, what? When did that happen?
- This morning.
282
00:17:52,237 --> 00:17:54,472
I think I win that round,
didn't I?
283
00:17:54,540 --> 00:17:56,908
I think I'm gonna like
this game.
284
00:17:58,811 --> 00:18:01,913
- Have a good day, Abby.
- Mm-hmm.
285
00:18:07,686 --> 00:18:12,023
OK, Penny, just tell Abby what
you need, OK? She's here to help.
286
00:18:12,057 --> 00:18:14,625
Thanks.
287
00:18:14,660 --> 00:18:17,528
It's simple: I want a divorce.
288
00:18:17,563 --> 00:18:20,998
- Divorce is never simple.
- What does he say?
289
00:18:21,066 --> 00:18:24,469
I don't know, he won't discuss
it. He won't discuss anything.
290
00:18:24,503 --> 00:18:27,605
- Is there someone else?
- I don't know,
291
00:18:27,673 --> 00:18:30,441
but there's definitely something
else. He's never home,
292
00:18:30,509 --> 00:18:32,710
he's always working,
always taking meetings,
293
00:18:32,778 --> 00:18:36,047
and if I ask him what it is that
he's so busy with, he just tells me
294
00:18:36,115 --> 00:18:39,283
not to worry, that
he's doing it for us.
295
00:18:41,220 --> 00:18:44,455
There's no us. Not anymore.
296
00:18:44,523 --> 00:18:48,292
Which is why I'm here.
297
00:18:48,360 --> 00:18:50,261
Where does he work?
298
00:18:50,295 --> 00:18:54,699
- He owns Green Thumb Nursery.
- He's that Tom?
299
00:18:54,766 --> 00:18:57,502
- He's... That's a great business.
- Believe me, I know.
300
00:18:57,569 --> 00:19:00,838
Look, Penny, I don't
practice anymore.
301
00:19:00,906 --> 00:19:03,941
But I can call this
lawyer, Dave King.
302
00:19:03,976 --> 00:19:06,410
He's one of the best attorneys I know.
I went to law school with him.
303
00:19:06,478 --> 00:19:09,714
See? I told you
Abby would help.
304
00:19:13,919 --> 00:19:17,889
- Your pork chops were amazing.
- Don't get too used to them.
305
00:19:17,956 --> 00:19:21,159
You just get them once a month. I
have to watch you. - I love 'em.
306
00:19:21,226 --> 00:19:25,363
Glad you picked up your mother's cooking
ability, God rest her soul, and not mine.
307
00:19:25,430 --> 00:19:28,332
Although I am king
of the microwave.
308
00:19:28,367 --> 00:19:31,035
- Dad, that's even worse.
- That's radiation.
309
00:19:31,103 --> 00:19:33,104
Oh, please.
310
00:19:33,172 --> 00:19:36,941
I'm serious.
311
00:19:36,975 --> 00:19:40,511
Hey, Dad, when you were,
um, on the force,
312
00:19:40,546 --> 00:19:43,347
did you ever work
313
00:19:43,382 --> 00:19:46,284
- with a Detective Al Corbison?
- Corbison, sure. Good cop.
314
00:19:46,351 --> 00:19:50,321
- Is he? - As far as I knew.
- Why do you ask?
315
00:19:50,355 --> 00:19:53,424
I, uh, I ran
into him yesterday.
316
00:19:53,492 --> 00:19:56,127
- At your flower shop?
- At a crime scene.
317
00:19:56,195 --> 00:19:59,897
Have you been following
the Hampton Arms murder?
318
00:19:59,932 --> 00:20:02,033
What there is
so far to follow.
319
00:20:02,067 --> 00:20:05,369
I did my share of investigating
at that place over the years.
320
00:20:05,437 --> 00:20:07,338
What were you doing there?
321
00:20:07,406 --> 00:20:09,840
Technically,
322
00:20:09,908 --> 00:20:12,176
I may be a material witness.
323
00:20:12,244 --> 00:20:14,946
- To the murder?
- It's complicated.
324
00:20:15,013 --> 00:20:16,914
Abby, what are you
involved in?
325
00:20:16,982 --> 00:20:19,016
Nothing yet. My car was hit
326
00:20:19,084 --> 00:20:21,886
by someone who may have been
fleeing the crime scene.
327
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,957
- Is that Corbison's theory or yours?
- Both. Neither. I don't know.
328
00:20:26,024 --> 00:20:28,893
They could be connected.
And get this.
329
00:20:28,961 --> 00:20:32,630
Corbison skipped town.
Allegedly went on vacation.
330
00:20:32,664 --> 00:20:35,866
- He didn't "skip town".
- He probably is on vacation.
331
00:20:35,901 --> 00:20:40,037
I did hear Elvis Jones
is a suspect.
332
00:20:40,072 --> 00:20:43,741
For real? That's ridiculous.
333
00:20:43,809 --> 00:20:47,878
Elvis Jones couldn't even... - Abby, Abby, just
stay out of this. Let the cops do their job.
334
00:20:47,946 --> 00:20:50,615
Fine.
335
00:20:52,584 --> 00:20:55,086
Oh boy...
336
00:21:40,332 --> 00:21:43,034
OK. Thank you very much.
337
00:21:43,101 --> 00:21:45,503
That was the Lutheran
Funeral Home.
338
00:21:45,537 --> 00:21:47,938
They just ordered flowers
for Billy Ryan's funeral.
339
00:21:47,973 --> 00:21:51,942
Did you know that Billy's
parents are Alice and Carl Ryan?
340
00:21:52,010 --> 00:21:55,313
The couple we did all those
anniversary flowers for? - Yeah.
341
00:21:55,380 --> 00:21:58,983
- I didn't know they even had a son.
- No, they never mentioned it.
342
00:21:59,051 --> 00:22:02,820
Maybe I should call that Detective Brand
just to see if there are any new leads.
343
00:22:02,888 --> 00:22:05,656
About your car or about Elvis?
344
00:22:05,724 --> 00:22:09,727
OK, look, I just don't believe Elvis
would've done it. He's a good guy.
345
00:22:09,761 --> 00:22:12,363
He's made bad choices,
but he's not a murderer.
346
00:22:12,431 --> 00:22:16,567
Something else happened there.
347
00:22:32,551 --> 00:22:35,820
The saddest thing is...
348
00:22:35,887 --> 00:22:38,189
we hadn't spoken
to Billy in months.
349
00:22:38,256 --> 00:22:41,892
- He pulled away from us.
- I'm so sorry.
350
00:22:41,927 --> 00:22:44,228
I have a daughter, I...
351
00:22:44,296 --> 00:22:46,530
I can't imagine.
352
00:22:46,565 --> 00:22:49,900
The last year
was really tough.
353
00:22:51,803 --> 00:22:55,172
Billy changed. He dropped out of
college, he moved out on his own...
354
00:22:55,207 --> 00:22:57,408
I just don't
understand it.
355
00:22:57,476 --> 00:23:00,244
Why would anyone
want to kill Billy?
356
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,149
Are you kidding me? What?
357
00:23:05,183 --> 00:23:07,818
"Parked more than
18 inches from the curb."
358
00:23:07,853 --> 00:23:11,589
Seriously? - What? You're like
half an inch from the curb.
359
00:23:11,656 --> 00:23:13,924
- What are you doing?
- I'm taking a picture of it,
360
00:23:13,992 --> 00:23:17,161
because... that's legal.
Totally legal right there.
361
00:23:17,229 --> 00:23:19,997
Hi.
362
00:23:20,031 --> 00:23:22,032
I would like to appeal
these two tickets, please.
363
00:23:24,603 --> 00:23:27,204
Fill this out.
364
00:23:27,239 --> 00:23:30,074
Oh no, actually,
I would like an explanation
365
00:23:30,142 --> 00:23:33,344
from the person who issued these,
because they're clearly not right.
366
00:23:33,412 --> 00:23:36,080
- Fill out the form.
- It's all in there.
367
00:23:36,114 --> 00:23:39,383
OK, but you see, what I have is
a picture, and here in this photo
368
00:23:39,418 --> 00:23:42,353
you can see that my car is actually
almost parked on the curb,
369
00:23:42,421 --> 00:23:45,923
not... - You can pay the fine,
or you can fill out the form.
370
00:23:45,991 --> 00:23:48,359
You'll hear back
in about a month.
371
00:23:54,299 --> 00:23:56,267
Here you go.
372
00:24:01,206 --> 00:24:03,774
What's this? It's incomplete.
373
00:24:03,842 --> 00:24:05,943
Oh, that's my phone number.
374
00:24:06,011 --> 00:24:08,813
Please have the clerk of courts call me
or he will be hearing from my lawyer.
375
00:24:08,847 --> 00:24:11,882
- Who is that?
- Me.
376
00:24:11,917 --> 00:24:14,885
Thank you for the pen.
Dave King!
377
00:24:14,953 --> 00:24:18,255
Abby Knight. Hey, thanks again
for referring Penny Harding.
378
00:24:18,323 --> 00:24:20,791
Oh, my pleasure. How
do you think she's gonna do?
379
00:24:20,859 --> 00:24:23,994
Depends. Husband says he didn't
want to divorce, but once we filed,
380
00:24:24,062 --> 00:24:26,997
- he hired Ed Feinberg. - The Terminator?
- Yeah.
381
00:24:27,065 --> 00:24:30,935
Abby got real serious real fast. - Makes
sense, he's got a big business.
382
00:24:31,002 --> 00:24:34,705
Have you started discovery yet? - We're
putting subpoenas together as we speak,
383
00:24:34,739 --> 00:24:37,408
but I'm short-staffed right now.
It could take time.
384
00:24:37,476 --> 00:24:40,744
Well, you have set up an emergency
provisional hearing, yes?
385
00:24:40,812 --> 00:24:43,681
Boy, you sure take
the 'ex' out of ex-lawyer.
386
00:24:43,715 --> 00:24:47,351
Look, the hearing's already set up
for next week. It will get Penny
387
00:24:47,419 --> 00:24:50,554
- some temporary funds, at least.
- You're the greatest.
388
00:24:50,622 --> 00:24:53,057
Let me know if I can help
in any way, OK?
389
00:24:53,124 --> 00:24:55,826
You wanna find out where Harding
banks his nursery income?
390
00:24:55,894 --> 00:24:57,862
You got it.
391
00:24:57,929 --> 00:25:00,231
- I was kidding.
- I wasn't.
392
00:25:00,298 --> 00:25:03,834
You said you were shorthanded.
Consider me a hand.
393
00:25:03,902 --> 00:25:06,971
- Thank you.
- Bye.
394
00:25:10,075 --> 00:25:12,109
One pinot grigio.
395
00:25:12,177 --> 00:25:15,045
OK, so you were right
about the wine.
396
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,449
I'm sorry, I just don't like when people
think that they've figured me out.
397
00:25:18,517 --> 00:25:21,252
Really? - Yeah. Who's
the tank commander?
398
00:25:21,286 --> 00:25:24,588
- What's that?
- Who's the tank commander?
399
00:25:24,623 --> 00:25:29,460
Oh, that's Sergeant Major Marco
Salvare, 75th Army Ranger Unit.
400
00:25:29,528 --> 00:25:31,595
Wow! When? Where?
401
00:25:31,663 --> 00:25:35,466
First Gulf War,
Somalia, Haiti... Yeah.
402
00:25:35,534 --> 00:25:39,603
You know what they say: Join the army, see
the world. - Well, that's impressive.
403
00:25:39,671 --> 00:25:44,241
And I just thought that you were some guy
trying to push moderately priced pinot.
404
00:25:44,309 --> 00:25:46,610
See, we're the same. You
thought you'd figured me out.
405
00:25:46,678 --> 00:25:49,813
- Well... - Hey, enough about me.
- How was the rest of your day?
406
00:25:49,881 --> 00:25:54,351
Uh, my day... nothing special. I repotted
a coleus, I hit the flower mart,
407
00:25:54,419 --> 00:25:57,721
I promised Billy Ryan's parents
I'd find their son's murderer...
408
00:25:57,789 --> 00:26:01,058
Yeah, nothing at all, because you
don't have enough on your plate, right?
409
00:26:01,126 --> 00:26:04,595
No, because I have never seen
two such sad people,
410
00:26:04,663 --> 00:26:06,564
and believe me, I've seen sad.
411
00:26:06,631 --> 00:26:09,700
- And?
- And I'm thinking,
412
00:26:09,768 --> 00:26:13,904
Sergeant Major, that maybe you want
to help me with the investigation,
413
00:26:13,972 --> 00:26:18,042
you know, on a sort of
official, as needed, basis?
414
00:26:18,109 --> 00:26:21,145
- Because I don't have enough on my plate.
- No, because I think
415
00:26:21,212 --> 00:26:25,149
that we're actually pretty good at this.
And I think that both of us
416
00:26:25,216 --> 00:26:27,518
miss that part
of our job that was...
417
00:26:27,586 --> 00:26:29,887
a little dangerous.
418
00:26:31,790 --> 00:26:34,758
I'm free tomorrow.
419
00:26:39,598 --> 00:26:43,334
're telling me is you think Tom Thumb had
something to do with Billy's murder.
420
00:26:43,401 --> 00:26:47,605
Tom Harding. Green Thumb
Nursery. I don't know,
421
00:26:47,672 --> 00:26:49,707
but given that Billy worked
for the man whose divorce
422
00:26:49,741 --> 00:26:52,309
I'm kind of involved with, I thought
I'd do a little multitasking.
423
00:26:52,377 --> 00:26:54,345
And what does that mean?
424
00:26:54,412 --> 00:26:57,581
Tom's wife is a friend. She
wants a divorce, needed a lawyer.
425
00:26:57,649 --> 00:27:00,684
I hooked her up with a friend of mine. I'm
just kind of keeping an eye on things.
426
00:27:00,719 --> 00:27:03,487
And this is sort of just
typical behavior.
427
00:27:03,555 --> 00:27:05,723
Somebody hit my car;
428
00:27:05,757 --> 00:27:08,826
I want to find out who, and for
some reason, things just got
429
00:27:08,860 --> 00:27:10,995
a little muddier.
430
00:27:22,674 --> 00:27:25,576
OK...
431
00:27:25,610 --> 00:27:28,912
I'm gonna be real cool,
see if I can drum up
432
00:27:28,947 --> 00:27:33,717
- some intel, OK? Real cool.
- OK. Real cool.
433
00:27:38,790 --> 00:27:41,692
Ah! Ah!
434
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,229
- Aw, man... that's a mess.
- I'm really sorry.
435
00:27:45,296 --> 00:27:47,464
I just... I kind of
bumped it and it all...
436
00:27:47,532 --> 00:27:49,333
I'm really sorry.
437
00:27:49,401 --> 00:27:52,336
I'm so clumsy.
438
00:27:56,207 --> 00:28:00,544
Hey, it's a real shame about
what happened to Billy.
439
00:28:00,612 --> 00:28:04,048
- Yeah, it's...
- it was a real bummer.
440
00:28:04,082 --> 00:28:07,918
Were you two friends? - I
barely knew the guy. Him and Buzz
441
00:28:07,952 --> 00:28:11,055
- were pretty close, though.
- Buzz? - The store manager.
442
00:28:11,122 --> 00:28:15,893
- Oh, the big boss. - That's Mr. Harding.
- Buzz is like his right-hand dude.
443
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:19,163
- And that's him.
- Daryl!
444
00:28:19,230 --> 00:28:21,899
- Did you do all this?
- No, this lady did.
445
00:28:21,966 --> 00:28:26,036
I'm sorry. - No, forget it. Is
there something I can help you find?
446
00:28:26,071 --> 00:28:28,872
- Yes, I was...
- There you are, honey.
447
00:28:28,940 --> 00:28:31,308
What happened here? - I did that.
I already apologized,
448
00:28:31,342 --> 00:28:34,511
no need to bring it up.
449
00:28:34,579 --> 00:28:36,480
Real cool.
450
00:28:36,548 --> 00:28:39,116
Hey, I'm really sorry
451
00:28:39,184 --> 00:28:42,820
- about what happened to Billy Ryan.
- What's that?
452
00:28:42,854 --> 00:28:46,156
Billy? I was told that you two
worked together. I'm so sorry.
453
00:28:46,224 --> 00:28:49,426
- Yeah, no, it's pretty awful.
- How did you know Billy?
454
00:28:49,494 --> 00:28:53,363
- Oh, well, I... we...
- know his parents.
455
00:28:53,431 --> 00:28:55,632
Well,
456
00:28:55,700 --> 00:28:59,069
I guess no one's safe, even
in a nice town like New Chapel.
457
00:28:59,137 --> 00:29:02,072
- I heard he had a rough year.
- I wouldn't know.
458
00:29:02,140 --> 00:29:05,075
I only saw him here, never
really got to know him.
459
00:29:05,143 --> 00:29:08,178
Listen, I'm gonna get
some help with this, but...
460
00:29:08,246 --> 00:29:11,248
if you need anything else,
you'll track me down, right?
461
00:29:11,316 --> 00:29:14,184
- Promise.
- Alright.
462
00:29:15,687 --> 00:29:18,856
Hi.
463
00:29:18,923 --> 00:29:21,558
Just the plant.
464
00:29:23,428 --> 00:29:25,963
"I'm gonna be real cool".
465
00:29:26,030 --> 00:29:28,232
How was I supposed to know the
whole thing was gonna fall over?
466
00:29:28,266 --> 00:29:31,368
- That's 9 dollars and 26 cents.
- Oh.
467
00:29:31,436 --> 00:29:33,971
- Oh, can I write you a check?
- Sure. - OK, great.
468
00:29:34,005 --> 00:29:37,374
- Thank you so much.
- Check, huh? - Yep.
469
00:29:40,178 --> 00:29:44,348
I write a check, they cash the check, and
then bam! I have their account number.
470
00:29:44,415 --> 00:29:47,684
- Ah!
- Money trail.
471
00:29:47,719 --> 00:29:51,789
The old canceled check ploy. - Follow
the money, I like it. - Mm-hmm.
472
00:29:51,856 --> 00:29:56,059
I don't know if you noticed, but that Buzz
guy said he knew nothing about Billy's life,
473
00:29:56,127 --> 00:29:59,897
yet that Daryl kid said
that they used to hang out.
474
00:29:59,931 --> 00:30:03,500
I did notice, and either Daryl
is as dumb as a rake,
475
00:30:03,568 --> 00:30:08,105
- or Buzz is a lying sack of manure.
- I think he likes you.
476
00:30:08,139 --> 00:30:11,875
Oh, great. - I'm just saying, if
you're interested, I could set it up.
477
00:30:11,943 --> 00:30:14,711
- Thanks, but no thanks.
- I'm fine.
478
00:30:14,779 --> 00:30:18,448
What about you?
479
00:30:18,483 --> 00:30:20,884
Oh, unfortunately
he's not my type.
480
00:30:22,353 --> 00:30:26,123
I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
What about me? Um...
481
00:30:26,191 --> 00:30:28,258
Well, I'm pretty simple really.
482
00:30:28,326 --> 00:30:31,895
Married at 25,
divorced by 35,
483
00:30:31,963 --> 00:30:35,232
and flying solo ever since. You?
484
00:30:35,266 --> 00:30:37,601
My husband Chuck died
two years ago.
485
00:30:37,669 --> 00:30:40,103
I picked up the pieces,
and here I am.
486
00:30:40,171 --> 00:30:43,607
I guess that's what you meant when
you said "I've seen sad people", huh?
487
00:30:43,675 --> 00:30:47,744
My daughter, Sydney. Chuck's
dead was very tough on her.
488
00:30:47,812 --> 00:30:49,746
And...
489
00:30:49,781 --> 00:30:52,983
Yeah, it was for me too.
490
00:30:53,017 --> 00:30:55,619
Well, shall we?
491
00:30:57,522 --> 00:31:01,525
- Alright, well, thank you.
- That was that Detective Brand.
492
00:31:01,593 --> 00:31:04,127
Elvis is still a suspect.
493
00:31:04,162 --> 00:31:06,330
They have no new leads,
zero to report.
494
00:31:06,397 --> 00:31:10,667
Oh, and surprise, though: no
progress on my hit-and-run.
495
00:31:10,702 --> 00:31:13,270
Well, maybe it is good that you're
doing some digging on your own,
496
00:31:13,338 --> 00:31:15,405
now that you've got
GI Joe to protect you.
497
00:31:15,473 --> 00:31:18,342
Did you completely miss
the women's empowerment memo?
498
00:31:18,409 --> 00:31:20,677
It was sent when
we were, like, ten.
499
00:31:20,745 --> 00:31:23,313
- I am just saying.
- I get it, OK?
500
00:31:23,381 --> 00:31:27,117
Maybe it isn't the worst thing
that one of us has seen combat.
501
00:31:27,185 --> 00:31:29,553
- Morning, ladies.
- Wow!
502
00:31:29,621 --> 00:31:32,522
Hey, Marco, we were just talking
about you! - No, we weren't.
503
00:31:32,590 --> 00:31:35,726
- Wow, look at these. These are beautiful.
- Yeah, except for the mums.
504
00:31:35,793 --> 00:31:38,228
- So, what's up?
- Oh, um,
505
00:31:38,296 --> 00:31:41,098
name and address
on our mystery SUV.
506
00:31:41,165 --> 00:31:44,101
- Good work!
- Thank you, Miss DMV.
507
00:31:44,168 --> 00:31:46,503
The power
of a dozen roses.
508
00:31:46,571 --> 00:31:49,806
Actually, truth be told, Nikki,
those roses and those flowers
509
00:31:49,841 --> 00:31:52,876
were for my mom's birthday. Thank you
very much, she absolutely loved them.
510
00:31:52,911 --> 00:31:56,813
I unfortunately had to use
my so very charming wit.
511
00:31:56,881 --> 00:32:00,350
And she still decided to help you?
512
00:32:00,385 --> 00:32:04,154
Yeah, crazy, huh? So listen, as far as this DMV
information goes, it's only half the battle.
513
00:32:04,188 --> 00:32:08,125
Gotta make sure it's accurate,
so I was thinking a stakeout.
514
00:32:08,159 --> 00:32:10,160
- A stakeout?
- Yeah.
515
00:32:10,228 --> 00:32:14,164
You and me, alone
in a dark car, for hours.
516
00:32:14,198 --> 00:32:16,099
Abby, if you don't go, I will.
517
00:32:16,167 --> 00:32:19,703
Uh, what time...
518
00:32:19,737 --> 00:32:22,472
partner?
519
00:32:35,420 --> 00:32:39,323
Wow! Did you pack
for a vacation?
520
00:32:46,731 --> 00:32:50,434
Well, failing to prepare
is preparing to fail.
521
00:32:50,501 --> 00:32:53,236
- Benjamin Franklin.
- OK.
522
00:32:53,304 --> 00:32:56,606
So, where are we going? - Uh,
we're going to county commissioner
523
00:32:56,674 --> 00:32:59,876
Louis Vertucci's house. DMV gave me two leads.
I figured that was the best place to start.
524
00:32:59,911 --> 00:33:03,680
Yeah, but Vertucci's like 60. He's got
gray hair. The guy I saw was young.
525
00:33:03,715 --> 00:33:06,583
So? Maybe he had
someone else drive the car.
526
00:33:25,870 --> 00:33:29,172
Now we wait.
527
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,174
We could be here for hours,
you know that, right?
528
00:33:31,242 --> 00:33:33,210
Don't think I didn't
take that into consideration.
529
00:33:33,277 --> 00:33:37,848
I've got...
530
00:33:37,882 --> 00:33:41,385
two meatball parm.
Four stars on Yelp.
531
00:33:41,452 --> 00:33:44,121
We can eat healthy.
532
00:33:44,155 --> 00:33:47,357
Three bags of pistachios.
533
00:33:47,425 --> 00:33:50,627
Shuck, and then just throw the shells
on the ground. It looks really cool.
534
00:33:50,695 --> 00:33:54,598
I've got two thermoses
of coffee, black.
535
00:33:54,632 --> 00:33:57,567
- Oh, thank you very much.
- And newspapers
536
00:33:57,635 --> 00:34:02,272
- to litter the dash.
- You're hysterical.
537
00:34:02,306 --> 00:34:05,942
- Well, we could be here for hours.
- Here's to teamwork.
538
00:34:14,585 --> 00:34:16,887
So, um...
539
00:34:16,954 --> 00:34:20,323
why'd you ever quit being
a private investigator?
540
00:34:22,226 --> 00:34:24,594
Oh... wow, um...
541
00:34:24,662 --> 00:34:27,030
I actually fell
into being a PI.
542
00:34:27,098 --> 00:34:30,834
And then, uh... I was working solo, and
then I ended up working for this company.
543
00:34:30,902 --> 00:34:34,004
But to tell you the truth,
544
00:34:34,072 --> 00:34:37,441
it was just... it was just the
loneliest job in the world.
545
00:34:37,475 --> 00:34:40,343
- I can imagine.
- So I took a leap of faith,
546
00:34:40,411 --> 00:34:44,081
grabbed my life savings, and
bought the Chicago Bar and Grill.
547
00:34:44,115 --> 00:34:47,984
- Oh, OK. - What about you?
- Why'd you quit being a lawyer?
548
00:34:49,887 --> 00:34:53,256
Well, I... I love the law.
549
00:34:53,324 --> 00:34:56,660
Yeah. I love how
it can help people,
550
00:34:56,727 --> 00:34:58,795
how it can improve their lives,
551
00:34:58,863 --> 00:35:01,331
but I hate it when it's unfair,
552
00:35:01,365 --> 00:35:03,533
which, for me, started to feel
553
00:35:03,601 --> 00:35:05,936
like too much
of the time.
554
00:35:06,003 --> 00:35:09,573
And then when Chuck died, I just
decided life was too short.
555
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,509
So I followed my bliss,
as they say,
556
00:35:12,577 --> 00:35:15,445
and opened a flower shop.
557
00:35:15,513 --> 00:35:19,049
And here we are, drinking thermos coffee,
558
00:35:19,117 --> 00:35:23,587
waiting for someone who probably has nothing
to do with anything, to maybe show up.
559
00:35:23,621 --> 00:35:26,089
Well, clearly
we're thrill seekers.
560
00:35:26,157 --> 00:35:29,693
Clearly.
561
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:33,130
Wait. Wait, wait, wait, wait,
wait. Garage door's opening.
562
00:35:33,164 --> 00:35:36,199
What do you see? - I don't
see anything yet. Hold on.
563
00:35:36,234 --> 00:35:40,904
Oh! Same car, it has to be! - Yeah, it's
the Escalade. - I can't see who's driving.
564
00:35:40,972 --> 00:35:44,241
- OK, here. - The car's driver...
- OK.
565
00:35:44,308 --> 00:35:47,077
- You see it?
- I see absolutely nothing.
566
00:35:47,111 --> 00:35:51,148
Abby, you've got the lens caps on!
567
00:35:51,215 --> 00:35:54,050
Let me try. Let me try.
568
00:35:54,118 --> 00:35:56,419
I can't see, these things are...
569
00:35:56,487 --> 00:35:58,622
Oh, no! Cops!
570
00:35:58,689 --> 00:36:02,592
Look, do me a favor, don't say
anything, OK? Let me handle this.
571
00:36:06,998 --> 00:36:10,433
Hi, Officer. Is there a problem?
572
00:36:10,468 --> 00:36:12,869
Just making the rounds. We've got
some concerned neighbors calling.
573
00:36:12,937 --> 00:36:16,239
Oh no, we were just sitting
talking, having some coffee.
574
00:36:16,307 --> 00:36:20,143
Having a picnic,
Mr., um, Blasko.
575
00:36:20,211 --> 00:36:22,045
- Detective.
- Detective.
576
00:36:22,113 --> 00:36:25,282
You know, you're not supposed
to be parked here. - Really?
577
00:36:25,349 --> 00:36:29,152
I totally missed it, sir. So
sorry. It'll never happen again.
578
00:36:29,220 --> 00:36:31,988
- Good night.
- Good night.
579
00:36:34,725 --> 00:36:38,762
Well, he was a charmer.
We'll be back, buddy.
580
00:36:40,731 --> 00:36:43,833
Alright... OK, what?
581
00:36:43,901 --> 00:36:46,369
"Don't say a word"? What?
582
00:36:46,437 --> 00:36:49,439
Were you afraid that the little
lady was gonna flap her gums? - No.
583
00:36:49,507 --> 00:36:53,476
I've been dealing with beat cops for years. I
just thought I could expedite matters, OK?
584
00:36:53,544 --> 00:36:56,379
Good save. Don't do it again.
585
00:36:56,414 --> 00:37:00,984
OK. Roger that, soldier.
586
00:37:58,876 --> 00:38:01,778
Dave King.
587
00:38:01,812 --> 00:38:04,648
I found Tom's bank account info.
588
00:38:04,682 --> 00:38:08,018
It's under "The Sprout Corp."
I got a number.
589
00:38:12,290 --> 00:38:15,892
OK. Bye.
590
00:38:22,199 --> 00:38:25,302
Hi. I'm from Bloomers.
591
00:38:25,369 --> 00:38:28,672
I'm just delivering there.
Is Greg Morgan around?
592
00:38:28,739 --> 00:38:32,075
- I'll check. Can I tell him who's here?
- Yes. Oh!
593
00:38:32,109 --> 00:38:35,145
Abby, hey. You shouldn't have.
594
00:38:35,212 --> 00:38:37,781
I didn't.
595
00:38:37,848 --> 00:38:40,383
Do you have time for me?
596
00:38:40,451 --> 00:38:43,153
Uh, may I speak
with you for a moment?
597
00:38:43,220 --> 00:38:46,589
Of course, yeah. Come on in.
598
00:38:46,657 --> 00:38:49,993
- Have a seat.
- Thank you.
599
00:38:50,061 --> 00:38:51,961
So,
600
00:38:51,996 --> 00:38:55,965
- can I get you anything?
- Yes, actually.
601
00:38:56,033 --> 00:38:59,235
I... I need some information
602
00:38:59,303 --> 00:39:01,171
about the Ryan investigation.
603
00:39:01,238 --> 00:39:04,341
Abby, you know I can't say
anything about that.
604
00:39:04,408 --> 00:39:06,309
I'm just curious.
605
00:39:06,344 --> 00:39:09,112
Why did Detective Corbison
take his vacation now?
606
00:39:09,180 --> 00:39:11,114
It was a planned vacation.
607
00:39:11,148 --> 00:39:14,818
With his family. A dead man
isn't going anywhere.
608
00:39:14,885 --> 00:39:18,221
By the way, I did ask Corbison
about that black Escalade.
609
00:39:18,289 --> 00:39:20,790
- And?
- Dead end.
610
00:39:20,858 --> 00:39:23,360
And why didn't you tell me about the
hit-and-run? Maybe I could've helped you.
611
00:39:23,394 --> 00:39:26,096
Well, maybe you still can.
612
00:39:26,163 --> 00:39:29,399
Yeah, OK. I'm
late for a meeting right now,
613
00:39:29,467 --> 00:39:31,634
but how about we pick this up
over dinner tonight?
614
00:39:31,702 --> 00:39:35,638
I'm having dinner with my father
tonight, but how about lunch tomorrow?
615
00:39:35,706 --> 00:39:38,274
That works. Italian?
616
00:39:38,342 --> 00:39:40,443
- Great.
- Alright, I'll set it up.
617
00:39:40,511 --> 00:39:43,947
Abby, even if you're right, this
is not worth getting mixed up in.
618
00:39:43,981 --> 00:39:47,150
I've seen too many of these cases go
south and drag everyone down with them.
619
00:39:47,218 --> 00:39:50,920
Dad, if you had seen the look in Billy's
parents' eyes, you would want to help them too.
620
00:39:50,988 --> 00:39:55,058
Believe me, 40 years on the force, I know
that look. You can't bring back their son.
621
00:39:55,126 --> 00:39:58,061
I know, but then there's
Elvis. They wanna pin it on him!
622
00:39:58,129 --> 00:40:01,998
Abby, just leave it
to the cops!
623
00:40:02,066 --> 00:40:06,302
Commissioner Vertucci! - Please,
don't get up. - Commissioner,
624
00:40:06,370 --> 00:40:09,172
how are you, sir? - Detective Knight,
I miss seeing that mug of yours.
625
00:40:09,240 --> 00:40:12,409
- How's retirement?
- Oh, great for the golf game.
626
00:40:12,476 --> 00:40:16,146
You know my daughter Abby? She
moved back, opened up Bloomers.
627
00:40:16,180 --> 00:40:19,315
- Oh, the flower shop! - Nice to meet you.
- Nice meeting you. Fantastic.
628
00:40:19,350 --> 00:40:23,620
Your shop's getting a lot of attention in
town. - For the right reasons, I hope.
629
00:40:23,654 --> 00:40:26,990
Good business is good for New Chapel.
630
00:40:27,057 --> 00:40:29,592
This strapping young man
here is my nephew Tony.
631
00:40:29,660 --> 00:40:33,096
Just moved here from Chicago,
helping me out on a big job.
632
00:40:33,164 --> 00:40:37,333
- What kind of big job, son?
- CPC. County Paving Project.
633
00:40:37,401 --> 00:40:40,570
Tony is our crew
supervisor. Good kid.
634
00:40:40,638 --> 00:40:42,539
I wonder,
635
00:40:42,606 --> 00:40:45,642
what does a young hip crew
supervisor drive these days?
636
00:40:45,709 --> 00:40:49,813
What does he drive? He drives
me crazy, don't you, Tony?
637
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:51,981
Anyways,
638
00:40:52,049 --> 00:40:54,083
I'll let you folks
get back to your food.
639
00:40:54,151 --> 00:40:56,619
Abby, it was very nice meeting
you. If I need flowers,
640
00:40:56,687 --> 00:40:59,522
- I'll know who to call.
- Why in the world
641
00:40:59,590 --> 00:41:02,492
would you ask Tony Vertucci
what he drives?
642
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:04,961
I was just being friendly.
643
00:41:04,995 --> 00:41:07,897
Oh. Mm-hmm.
644
00:41:09,667 --> 00:41:12,635
That was the car that hit me,
and that was the guy driving it,
645
00:41:12,703 --> 00:41:15,672
I am almost positive. - Well, I'm sorry,
counselor, but that's not gonna hold up
646
00:41:15,706 --> 00:41:18,708
- in a court of law, I'm afraid.
- Tony Vertucci
647
00:41:18,776 --> 00:41:21,744
has been living and
working with his uncle.
648
00:41:21,812 --> 00:41:25,181
He could've been driving his SUV
that morning. - OK, remember the DMV
649
00:41:25,249 --> 00:41:29,018
had a second possibility? Turns out the
driver of that Escalade was Father O'Shea
650
00:41:29,086 --> 00:41:31,788
- from St. Cecilia's Church, so...
- Great.
651
00:41:31,856 --> 00:41:35,391
- Well, I'm not gonna stake out a priest.
- Gentlemen, thanks.
652
00:41:35,459 --> 00:41:38,628
Good night. - I do think
that we should find out
653
00:41:38,696 --> 00:41:42,532
where Tony Vertucci was the morning
my car was hit... rule him in or out.
654
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:46,336
You'd like me to ask around. - Sure,
and maybe my friend the DA can help.
655
00:41:46,403 --> 00:41:50,540
I'll ask him tomorrow. We're
having a... lunch... date.
656
00:41:50,608 --> 00:41:53,510
That's great. Just do me a favor
and spare me the gory details, OK?
657
00:41:53,577 --> 00:41:56,546
Fair enough. - Actually, I have a great
idea. Why don't you bring him here?
658
00:41:56,614 --> 00:42:00,817
- I can meet him and tell you if I approve.
- Uh... not on your life.
659
00:42:00,885 --> 00:42:04,053
It could get very romantic.
660
00:42:04,121 --> 00:42:06,055
Oh, I see.
661
00:42:06,123 --> 00:42:08,391
Bye.
662
00:42:08,459 --> 00:42:10,760
Bye.
663
00:42:19,737 --> 00:42:21,738
Elvis?
664
00:42:21,772 --> 00:42:23,873
- Oh...
- How's it going?
665
00:42:23,941 --> 00:42:26,843
Hi, Abby.
666
00:42:26,911 --> 00:42:29,913
Hey. - Hey. - Can I buy
you a cup of coffee?
667
00:42:31,849 --> 00:42:34,217
Why are you the lead suspect
668
00:42:34,285 --> 00:42:37,253
- in the Billy Ryan murder?
- Lead suspect.
669
00:42:37,288 --> 00:42:40,423
That's rich.
670
00:42:40,491 --> 00:42:43,359
I was camping out in the
basement of the Hampton Arms.
671
00:42:43,427 --> 00:42:46,663
I used to live there,
so I know
672
00:42:46,730 --> 00:42:50,900
all the good hiding places. Bigmouth landlady
saw me leave the next morning, told the cops.
673
00:42:50,935 --> 00:42:54,871
Did you know Billy? - I've
done a lot of bad things, Abby,
674
00:42:54,939 --> 00:42:57,507
but I would never kill anyone.
675
00:43:01,645 --> 00:43:03,947
Thank you.
676
00:43:04,014 --> 00:43:08,251
- This is nice, Abby. - Yeah, it is.
- I love this restaurant.
677
00:43:08,319 --> 00:43:10,753
- Even as a kid, I loved it.
- I...
678
00:43:10,788 --> 00:43:12,922
I meant this. Us.
679
00:43:12,957 --> 00:43:16,125
OK. Uh, so...
680
00:43:16,193 --> 00:43:18,461
should we pick up
where we left off?
681
00:43:18,529 --> 00:43:21,864
What do you mean, like 10th grade,
me asking to copy your homework?
682
00:43:21,932 --> 00:43:24,300
That's hysterical. No.
683
00:43:24,368 --> 00:43:26,903
Um... I meant
the Ryan case.
684
00:43:26,971 --> 00:43:29,439
You... you really
wanna talk about that?
685
00:43:29,506 --> 00:43:32,008
Or we could talk about
my case, the hit-and-run.
686
00:43:32,042 --> 00:43:35,144
OK, um...
687
00:43:35,179 --> 00:43:37,080
What about it?
688
00:43:37,147 --> 00:43:39,549
I think the cops are
giving us the runaround.
689
00:43:39,617 --> 00:43:41,985
And by "us",
you mean Marco Salvare,
690
00:43:42,052 --> 00:43:44,954
the bar owner slash
failed private eye?
691
00:43:44,989 --> 00:43:46,990
Not failed,
692
00:43:47,057 --> 00:43:49,392
just over it. And how do you
know he was helping me?
693
00:43:49,426 --> 00:43:53,329
I guess I've just got my finger
on the pulse of New Chapel.
694
00:43:53,397 --> 00:43:56,032
Oh, well...
695
00:43:56,100 --> 00:43:59,802
I think the cops know more
than they're letting on.
696
00:43:59,870 --> 00:44:03,940
When I mentioned the SUV to Corbison, he was
already trying to bury the information.
697
00:44:03,974 --> 00:44:07,310
- You told me he knew nothing about it.
- And you believed him!
698
00:44:07,378 --> 00:44:10,780
- Any reason I shouldn't have?
- I don't know. You're the one
699
00:44:10,848 --> 00:44:12,815
with your finger
on the pulse of New Chapel.
700
00:44:12,883 --> 00:44:15,785
Look, Abby.
701
00:44:15,819 --> 00:44:18,588
Around here,
the police are the good guys.
702
00:44:18,656 --> 00:44:22,158
And you should remember
that my dad was a cop,
703
00:44:22,226 --> 00:44:25,461
so I know all about them,
good and bad.
704
00:44:25,529 --> 00:44:27,363
I know it's only
temporary support
705
00:44:27,431 --> 00:44:30,333
- but I feel so much better!
- It's a great first step.
706
00:44:30,367 --> 00:44:33,636
Yes, and Big Dave here sure
got that judge to see
707
00:44:33,704 --> 00:44:36,739
- right through Tom's poverty act.
- Once Judge Mead took a look
708
00:44:36,807 --> 00:44:38,841
at those business statements,
even the Terminator didn't
709
00:44:38,909 --> 00:44:40,643
- stand a chance.
- Penny!
710
00:44:40,678 --> 00:44:42,779
You may have won this round.
Don't expect to win any others.
711
00:44:42,813 --> 00:44:44,714
Pleasure doing business
with you too, Tom.
712
00:44:44,748 --> 00:44:46,649
And you.
713
00:44:46,717 --> 00:44:49,385
You dragged my wife into this,
didn't you?
714
00:44:49,453 --> 00:44:52,155
- No. It was all Penny.
- Really?
715
00:44:52,222 --> 00:44:55,658
Because until she met you, there
wasn't one word about a divorce.
716
00:44:55,726 --> 00:44:59,328
Don't blame Abby, Tom. Blame yourself. You
made the business more important than us.
717
00:44:59,396 --> 00:45:01,297
I don't need you to tell me
how to run my business.
718
00:45:01,365 --> 00:45:04,634
Fine. You're on
your own now.
719
00:45:07,538 --> 00:45:09,772
I think it's best to stay out
of other people's lives.
720
00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,875
Well then you should
absolutely do that.
721
00:45:12,943 --> 00:45:15,011
- Let's go, Tom.
- There's no need for this.
722
00:45:20,350 --> 00:45:23,986
- Thank you.
- You're great!
723
00:45:24,054 --> 00:45:27,023
You're great! Come on!
724
00:45:44,041 --> 00:45:46,042
He took one look at my car
725
00:45:46,110 --> 00:45:47,977
and he panicked.
726
00:45:48,045 --> 00:45:49,946
And the jacket
logo matches
727
00:45:49,980 --> 00:45:52,782
- the one on the SUV driver!
- Are you sure?
728
00:45:52,850 --> 00:45:55,284
Yes! As in very,
definitely, yes, I'm sure.
729
00:45:55,352 --> 00:45:57,754
I think...
something strange.
730
00:45:57,821 --> 00:45:59,722
I think
they're connected!
731
00:45:59,790 --> 00:46:02,191
I think my car,
hit by Tony,
732
00:46:02,259 --> 00:46:05,194
Tony running
from the apartment building,
733
00:46:05,262 --> 00:46:08,397
Billy Ryan found dead
in said apartment...
734
00:46:08,432 --> 00:46:11,367
Hmm. How many reruns
of Columbo did you watch
735
00:46:11,435 --> 00:46:13,536
- last night by the way?
- Very funny.
736
00:46:13,604 --> 00:46:15,838
They were
Murder She Wrote.
737
00:46:15,906 --> 00:46:18,407
Okay! Speaking of Tony,
I actually dug up
738
00:46:18,475 --> 00:46:20,510
- a little information on him.
- Do tell.
739
00:46:20,577 --> 00:46:23,045
Turns out he was charged with
aggravator assault last year
740
00:46:23,113 --> 00:46:26,015
in Chicago. Bar fight,
charges dismissed.
741
00:46:26,083 --> 00:46:28,518
Two years ago,
he was charged with four counts
742
00:46:28,552 --> 00:46:31,053
of illegal gambling,
also dismissed.
743
00:46:31,121 --> 00:46:33,055
I bet uncle Louis
stepped in somehow.
744
00:46:33,090 --> 00:46:34,991
Tony is bad news.
745
00:46:35,025 --> 00:46:37,193
You're not gonna'
like this one.
746
00:46:37,261 --> 00:46:39,095
I also heard that he was
at a construction site
747
00:46:39,163 --> 00:46:41,030
in Granville
when your car was hit.
748
00:46:41,098 --> 00:46:44,133
Hearsay, your honor, and what
about his reaction to my car?
749
00:46:44,201 --> 00:46:47,203
I don't know. Maybe he, uh,
hates vintage Mercedes.
750
00:46:47,271 --> 00:46:50,139
The point is,
we need to spy on Tony!
751
00:46:50,207 --> 00:46:52,441
We need to gather
some intel,
752
00:46:52,476 --> 00:46:55,411
maybe even get a photo of him
driving the SUV.
753
00:46:55,479 --> 00:46:58,214
- We need a stakeout!
- Abby, don't you think
754
00:46:58,282 --> 00:47:00,817
- you're going a little too far with this?
- Not on the street this time.
755
00:47:00,884 --> 00:47:03,152
And definitely away
from that bully Blasko. Look.
756
00:47:03,187 --> 00:47:06,355
I Google map
Vertucci's house and...
757
00:47:06,423 --> 00:47:08,958
look! We can sneak up
right up to it
758
00:47:09,026 --> 00:47:10,993
from the lot behind.
759
00:47:13,630 --> 00:47:15,498
You're dangerous,
you know that?
760
00:47:15,566 --> 00:47:17,433
I'm thinking tomorrow,
late afternoon.
761
00:47:17,501 --> 00:47:20,403
I checked and Tony's shift
ends at 4.
762
00:47:20,437 --> 00:47:23,339
Well? What do you say?
You in?
763
00:47:25,242 --> 00:47:28,778
- I...
- Yes!
764
00:47:43,026 --> 00:47:45,528
Okay! Should we just
leave the car here?
765
00:47:45,596 --> 00:47:47,830
I don't know. At this point,
I'm just following your lead.
766
00:47:47,898 --> 00:47:49,765
You're
finally learning.
767
00:47:49,833 --> 00:47:51,767
- Ha! Ha! Yeah.
- Okay!
768
00:47:51,835 --> 00:47:53,736
- What are you doing?
- What do you mean?
769
00:47:53,770 --> 00:47:55,705
Stop crouching. You're
crouching down like you're
770
00:47:55,739 --> 00:47:58,708
chasing a bear or something.
Just act natural. Calm down.
771
00:47:58,775 --> 00:48:02,044
Alright, do me a favor.
772
00:48:02,112 --> 00:48:04,313
Sit tight and I'll signal you
when it's safe to follow.
773
00:48:04,348 --> 00:48:06,215
- Hey, wait!
- What?
774
00:48:06,283 --> 00:48:08,351
I thought now you were
all about following me.
775
00:48:08,418 --> 00:48:12,188
- What? - I'm kidding. Go.
- Oh! Jokes. Okay, good.
776
00:48:23,467 --> 00:48:25,368
Okay.
777
00:48:25,435 --> 00:48:27,737
- What do you see?
- That's Vertucci's Bentley.
778
00:48:27,771 --> 00:48:29,805
If we're lucky, Tony's gonna'
be in his uncle's SUV.
779
00:48:29,873 --> 00:48:31,874
We'll catch him
when he gets back here.
780
00:48:31,942 --> 00:48:33,943
- Ah, fingers crossed!
- Okay. Let's go over here.
781
00:48:37,848 --> 00:48:39,715
- Oh! There's a car.
- Car?
782
00:48:39,783 --> 00:48:42,351
There's a car.
783
00:48:44,855 --> 00:48:47,490
- What do you see?
- It's an Escalade.
784
00:48:47,557 --> 00:48:49,992
- I know it's an Escalade.
- Who's driving?
785
00:48:50,060 --> 00:48:52,595
It's Tony and Vertucci
in the Escalade.
786
00:48:52,629 --> 00:48:56,198
- Really?
- Yeah.
787
00:48:56,266 --> 00:48:58,935
- Hey, buddy! How are you?
- Hey, come here. Come here.
788
00:48:59,002 --> 00:49:01,704
Come here, buddy!
What are you doing? Sit. Sit.
789
00:49:01,738 --> 00:49:04,340
- I hate dogs, Abby.
- That's a big dog.
790
00:49:04,374 --> 00:49:06,776
Wait, there's
another car!
791
00:49:10,213 --> 00:49:13,082
- It's Blasko.
- What is he doing here?
792
00:49:13,150 --> 00:49:15,051
Okay. They're talking.
793
00:49:15,085 --> 00:49:17,253
Vertucci just handed him
an envelope!
794
00:49:17,321 --> 00:49:19,188
With money in it!
795
00:49:19,256 --> 00:49:22,024
- Yup!
- Hurry up!
796
00:49:23,794 --> 00:49:25,962
- You know what, Abby?
- We just witnessed a pay-off.
797
00:49:26,029 --> 00:49:29,265
- Thank you, perfect timing!
- Hey! Do you think
798
00:49:29,333 --> 00:49:31,200
Vertucci paid Blasko
to cover up the murder?
799
00:49:31,268 --> 00:49:33,135
Look, let's not get ahead
of ourselves, alright?
800
00:49:33,203 --> 00:49:35,071
All I got is Blasko accepting
cash. Why is anybody's guess.
801
00:49:35,138 --> 00:49:36,973
Would it kill you
to agree with me?
802
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:39,208
I'm agreeing with you!
803
00:49:41,645 --> 00:49:45,147
- Oh! Oh!
- Come on! Hurry up!
804
00:49:48,585 --> 00:49:50,853
- Hurry up!
- I am hurrying!
805
00:49:55,792 --> 00:49:58,728
Mom? You look beat.
806
00:49:58,795 --> 00:50:00,963
Were you up all night watching
a Lojak marathon again?
807
00:50:00,998 --> 00:50:03,265
It's not Lojak, it's Kojak.
808
00:50:03,333 --> 00:50:05,301
And no, I was just out late...
809
00:50:05,369 --> 00:50:07,269
with a friend.
810
00:50:07,337 --> 00:50:09,438
Okay. Who's the guy?
811
00:50:09,506 --> 00:50:12,241
Oh! He's... Alright, look,
he's just a friend, okay?
812
00:50:12,309 --> 00:50:14,543
It just started off
as a business thing.
813
00:50:20,584 --> 00:50:24,086
- Honey, I'm gonna' have to go.
- I'll, uh... I'll call you.
814
00:50:24,154 --> 00:50:26,689
Have a good day.
I love you, sweetheart.
815
00:50:28,892 --> 00:50:30,993
Police have arrested
Elvis Jones.
816
00:50:31,061 --> 00:50:33,029
Jones, a known transient,
817
00:50:33,063 --> 00:50:34,964
parolee and drug offender
818
00:50:34,998 --> 00:50:37,233
was taken to county jail today
819
00:50:37,267 --> 00:50:40,236
and charged
with second degree murder.
820
00:50:40,270 --> 00:50:42,138
- This is wrong.
- Elvis Jones is being framed.
821
00:50:42,205 --> 00:50:44,073
He's an
easy target.
822
00:50:44,141 --> 00:50:46,242
There's gotta' be
more to it!
823
00:50:46,309 --> 00:50:48,744
Maybe you can get Gorgeous
Greg to spill a thing or two.
824
00:50:48,812 --> 00:50:50,713
Hey!
825
00:50:50,747 --> 00:50:52,648
- Morning, ladies.
- Hey.
826
00:50:52,716 --> 00:50:55,651
Looks like Elvis is
gonna' be doing
827
00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:58,988
a little jailhouse rock. - Yeah. What's
your take on it? - I don't know, Abby.
828
00:50:59,056 --> 00:51:01,524
It obviously looks a little
too easy for me.
829
00:51:01,558 --> 00:51:03,959
Well, I think
Detective Blasko framed him.
830
00:51:04,027 --> 00:51:06,162
- Okay, uh, look.
- Just sit tight, okay?
831
00:51:06,229 --> 00:51:08,998
I'll put my fielders
all around town on Blasko
832
00:51:09,066 --> 00:51:10,966
- and see what we can find out.
- And I'll, uh...
833
00:51:11,034 --> 00:51:13,903
I'll see what I can drum up
on other things.
834
00:51:13,937 --> 00:51:17,306
- Cool!
- And oh! Marco?
835
00:51:17,374 --> 00:51:20,609
- Yes.
- Um, "sit tight" is second only
836
00:51:20,677 --> 00:51:23,512
to "don't say a word"
on the offensive scale.
837
00:51:23,580 --> 00:51:26,115
Okay!
838
00:51:26,149 --> 00:51:28,384
Um, I'm gonna' go
and uh,
839
00:51:28,452 --> 00:51:31,187
sit tight
and not say a word.
840
00:51:31,254 --> 00:51:34,857
- Good idea.
- Yeah.
841
00:51:34,925 --> 00:51:36,826
Ciao!
842
00:51:36,893 --> 00:51:38,794
Ciao!
843
00:51:38,829 --> 00:51:42,465
And one for Abby!
844
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:52,708
On the house. Because,
you know, as a proprietor,
845
00:51:52,776 --> 00:51:54,643
you can never can
give away enough free stuff.
846
00:51:54,711 --> 00:51:58,447
Ha! Ha! Yeah, but think
about how happy it makes people.
847
00:51:58,515 --> 00:52:02,051
- Is it making you happy?
- Well, as a matter of fact,
848
00:52:02,119 --> 00:52:03,986
- it is!
- Good!
849
00:52:04,054 --> 00:52:05,921
Oh! I got another
850
00:52:05,989 --> 00:52:08,424
- absurd parking ticket today.
- Abby, I wanted to ask you.
851
00:52:08,458 --> 00:52:11,794
You don't think you're being harassed,
do you? - Somebody's trying to tell me
852
00:52:11,828 --> 00:52:15,698
something and I don't think it's "you don't
know how to drive". - Then who is it?
853
00:52:15,765 --> 00:52:17,600
Well, the tickets started
after I reported
854
00:52:17,667 --> 00:52:19,502
my hit and run,
so maybe it's somebody
855
00:52:19,569 --> 00:52:21,837
who wants me to forget
all about it.
856
00:52:21,905 --> 00:52:23,772
Well, it could be somebody
who's got some...
857
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:25,908
pull in local
traffic enforcement.
858
00:52:25,942 --> 00:52:29,111
Like our
county commissioner.
859
00:52:29,179 --> 00:52:31,680
Abby, for your sake,
I hope it's not the case.
860
00:52:34,151 --> 00:52:37,386
- That was great!
- Yeah, it was fun!
861
00:52:37,454 --> 00:52:40,723
Ah! It's so nice to have
a place to go to after work.
862
00:52:40,757 --> 00:52:42,658
Well, we love having you.
863
00:52:42,692 --> 00:52:44,760
Thank you.
864
00:52:53,003 --> 00:52:55,804
Uh, listen, Abby. I was just
wondering if maybe you and I
865
00:52:55,839 --> 00:52:58,874
could, uh, grab dinner sometime.
You know, not connected
866
00:52:58,942 --> 00:53:01,944
to the crime scene
here in New Chapel.
867
00:53:02,012 --> 00:53:04,013
- Oh! Um.
- That would be nice!
868
00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:06,782
- Let me think about it.
- Okay, yeah. Sure.
869
00:53:06,850 --> 00:53:08,851
No, absolutely. Alright!
Have a good night!
870
00:53:08,919 --> 00:53:10,920
Thank you.
871
00:53:13,857 --> 00:53:17,359
What's wrong?
872
00:53:17,427 --> 00:53:19,228
I don't know. My...
873
00:53:19,296 --> 00:53:21,497
- What's going on?
- My brakes aren't working.
874
00:53:21,565 --> 00:53:23,766
- Okay. Hold on.
- Don't move.
875
00:53:25,769 --> 00:53:28,070
Be careful.
876
00:53:32,842 --> 00:53:34,910
Okay. Abby,
your brake lines have been cut.
877
00:53:34,978 --> 00:53:38,380
- What?
- Oughta' call 9-1-1.
878
00:53:41,585 --> 00:53:43,652
Hi. Uh, listen. Can I get
a police officer or somebody
879
00:53:43,720 --> 00:53:46,021
to come down here
to Chicago's Bar and Grill?
880
00:53:46,089 --> 00:53:48,057
A friend of mine's car.
Their brake lines have been cut.
881
00:54:33,603 --> 00:54:36,005
No! Wha... No!
882
00:54:37,907 --> 00:54:39,908
Thank you!
883
00:54:47,217 --> 00:54:50,052
- I know, okay. I just heard.
- Do you believe it?
884
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:51,987
- I don't know what to tell you.
- The guy confessed.
885
00:54:52,055 --> 00:54:53,922
- That's a huge move, Abby.
- Elvis Stone looked me
886
00:54:53,990 --> 00:54:56,091
right in the eye
and he said that he would never
887
00:54:56,159 --> 00:54:58,827
murder anybody, and guess what?
I believe him!
888
00:54:58,862 --> 00:55:00,763
Yeah. Did he tell you he loved
you on your prom night too?
889
00:55:00,830 --> 00:55:02,698
- Oh, you know what?
- A) That's mean.
890
00:55:02,766 --> 00:55:06,335
B) I think Louis Vertucci
paid off a cop to extract
891
00:55:06,403 --> 00:55:09,838
that confession to cover up
for Tony's involvement,
892
00:55:09,906 --> 00:55:12,741
and that cop
is Blasko.
893
00:55:12,809 --> 00:55:14,977
Why would Tony want
to kill Billy Ryan, huh?
894
00:55:15,045 --> 00:55:18,414
Why would Elvis Jones want to? And it
would not be Vertucci's first cover-up.
895
00:55:18,448 --> 00:55:21,550
Come on, Abby! It was a misuse
of public funds and you know it.
896
00:55:21,584 --> 00:55:23,485
That's far from murder!
He was cleared
897
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:25,854
of those charges.
I did my homework.
898
00:55:25,922 --> 00:55:28,724
But there is
still precedent,
899
00:55:28,758 --> 00:55:30,859
just like
with Tony's assault charges
900
00:55:30,927 --> 00:55:33,162
and all signs point
to Tony hitting my car
901
00:55:33,229 --> 00:55:35,264
after fleeing
the scene of the murder.
902
00:55:35,332 --> 00:55:38,067
Abby, Tony's uncle gonna'
get in protection
903
00:55:38,134 --> 00:55:40,369
and there's nothing you and I
can do to change that. Alright?
904
00:55:40,403 --> 00:55:43,305
Just do me a favor: go back
to your fantastic flower shop
905
00:55:43,340 --> 00:55:45,207
and forget about
this whole murder case.
906
00:55:45,275 --> 00:55:47,142
Fine. Then why don't you
go back to your fantastic
907
00:55:47,210 --> 00:55:50,012
watering hole, and I will
send up a flyer if I need you.
908
00:56:35,258 --> 00:56:37,493
Yikes!
909
00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:39,528
They're everywhere!
910
00:57:05,822 --> 00:57:07,723
Help you?
911
00:57:07,757 --> 00:57:09,625
- No! No, thanks.
- I'm fine.
912
00:57:09,692 --> 00:57:11,560
I'm just
buying a mum.
913
00:57:11,628 --> 00:57:14,396
I love mums!
They may be my favorite flower!
914
00:57:14,464 --> 00:57:16,465
What does
a florist need with a mum?
915
00:57:16,533 --> 00:57:18,767
Why does a nursery manager
need a gun?
916
00:57:18,835 --> 00:57:21,403
Well, you
never know
917
00:57:21,471 --> 00:57:23,338
what crazies might come
into the store.
918
00:57:23,406 --> 00:57:25,507
Okay! Uh,
on that note,
919
00:57:25,575 --> 00:57:27,476
I'm going
to leave.
920
00:57:27,544 --> 00:57:30,012
And I'm gonna' go pay
for this mum.
921
00:57:30,079 --> 00:57:33,182
You sure you don't want
a fresher one?
922
00:57:33,249 --> 00:57:36,985
- That one looks a little wilted.
- I like this one.
923
00:57:44,127 --> 00:57:47,896
- So, how's my favorite lawyer?
- Intrigued.
924
00:57:47,931 --> 00:57:51,099
I just got the articles of
incorporation from the Sprout Corp.
925
00:57:51,167 --> 00:57:55,370
It seems that Harding also has
a sub-company called Roots Corp
926
00:57:55,438 --> 00:57:57,673
- and the CEO is Ed Feinberg.
- Harding's lawyer?
927
00:57:57,707 --> 00:58:00,209
- Hmm-hmm.
- Well, that's convenient.
928
00:58:00,276 --> 00:58:02,244
- Yeah.
- Okay, but why have
929
00:58:02,278 --> 00:58:04,947
a separate business
from his nursery business?
930
00:58:05,014 --> 00:58:08,684
- What's he doing? Hiding money?
- Don't know. There's no indication.
931
00:58:08,751 --> 00:58:11,420
Have you subpoenaed
the records yet?
932
00:58:11,488 --> 00:58:13,822
You do realize
it's only 9AM, right?
933
00:58:13,890 --> 00:58:16,258
Yeah. I'm gonna' go
talk to my plants.
934
00:58:16,292 --> 00:58:18,193
Check in with you later, okay?
935
00:58:18,261 --> 00:58:21,296
- I'll talk to you soon, kiddo.
- Dave King.
936
00:58:23,766 --> 00:58:25,767
I am really
enjoying this, Abby.
937
00:58:25,835 --> 00:58:29,338
- I'm glad you said yes. Again.
- Well,
938
00:58:29,405 --> 00:58:31,573
I believe everybody deserves
a second chance.
939
00:58:31,641 --> 00:58:34,243
Tell that
to my two ex-wives.
940
00:58:34,277 --> 00:58:37,145
Two? I thought
it was only one!
941
00:58:37,213 --> 00:58:39,748
Some detective
you are!
942
00:58:39,782 --> 00:58:43,485
Well, I actually am
a pretty good detective
943
00:58:43,553 --> 00:58:45,420
in my ex-lawyer
turned florist way.
944
00:58:45,488 --> 00:58:48,457
- Really?
- Yeah. Uh...
945
00:58:48,525 --> 00:58:51,760
Go ahead. Ask me about...
the Ryan murder.
946
00:58:51,828 --> 00:58:54,863
You wanna' talk
about the Ryan murder?
947
00:58:54,898 --> 00:58:56,765
- Yes. Please.
- Please, just be honest
948
00:58:56,833 --> 00:58:58,800
with me. Is this payback
for ignoring you in high school?
949
00:58:58,868 --> 00:59:01,603
Because if you want an apology,
I can do that. I've had therapy.
950
00:59:01,638 --> 00:59:04,740
This is
not payback.
951
00:59:07,377 --> 00:59:09,478
No apology needed,
952
00:59:09,546 --> 00:59:11,446
but therapy is good.
953
00:59:11,514 --> 00:59:14,550
Okay, look. I know
that Elvis Jones confessed
954
00:59:14,617 --> 00:59:17,486
to the murder,
but did he give a reason why?
955
00:59:17,554 --> 00:59:20,689
- I'm not at liberty to say.
- Oh!
956
00:59:20,757 --> 00:59:22,624
But, bottom line,
957
00:59:22,692 --> 00:59:25,694
his fingerprints were found
in Billy Ryan's living room.
958
00:59:25,728 --> 00:59:28,830
- And those were the only ones?
- Yeah.
959
00:59:28,898 --> 00:59:30,766
The only ones
that matched any on file.
960
00:59:30,833 --> 00:59:33,602
- Right. Look.
- Let's just...
961
00:59:33,636 --> 00:59:36,271
suppose that Elvis
was involved, okay?
962
00:59:36,339 --> 00:59:39,207
What if
I told you...
963
00:59:39,242 --> 00:59:41,143
that he didn't
act alone?
964
00:59:41,210 --> 00:59:44,079
Well, I'd say
you're nosy,
965
00:59:44,113 --> 00:59:46,114
but I didn't
peg you
966
00:59:46,182 --> 00:59:48,150
as a conspiracy nut.
967
00:59:50,353 --> 00:59:53,188
Okay, so, who's
this co-conspirator?
968
00:59:55,224 --> 00:59:57,292
Tony Vertucci,
the commissioner's nephew.
969
00:59:57,360 --> 00:59:59,227
- Oh, please don't!
- Come on! Listen to me!
970
00:59:59,295 --> 01:00:01,964
Listen to me. My hit and run,
the morning of the murder.
971
01:00:02,031 --> 01:00:04,266
I would bet my shop
that it's Tony.
972
01:00:04,334 --> 01:00:07,035
He supposedly has an alibi.
I don't buy it.
973
01:00:07,070 --> 01:00:09,938
- Uh, please, Abby.
- Fingerprint him!
974
01:00:10,006 --> 01:00:12,074
Fingerprint him
and I guarantee you
975
01:00:12,108 --> 01:00:14,142
that there will be
a match on file.
976
01:00:14,210 --> 01:00:17,112
Implicate the commissioner's
nephew? You're asking me
977
01:00:17,146 --> 01:00:19,481
- to commit career suicide!
- Okay!
978
01:00:19,549 --> 01:00:21,950
Alright, well,
what if I...
979
01:00:22,018 --> 01:00:24,186
told you that...
980
01:00:29,425 --> 01:00:31,460
I have photos
that prove
981
01:00:31,527 --> 01:00:34,296
that the Vertuccis
were involved?
982
01:00:34,330 --> 01:00:37,699
Photos? What kind
of photos?
983
01:00:43,072 --> 01:00:44,940
No! Absolutely not! You can't
just go flashing around pictures
984
01:00:45,008 --> 01:00:47,309
making random accusations
like that, Abby. You know that.
985
01:00:47,343 --> 01:00:50,012
I also know that right now,
justice is not being served.
986
01:00:50,079 --> 01:00:53,548
Okay, look. Until we're 110%
convinced of what we saw
987
01:00:53,616 --> 01:00:55,484
[at the Vertucci's,
those pictures are off-limits,
988
01:00:55,551 --> 01:00:57,452
Well, you should be aware
989
01:00:57,487 --> 01:00:59,388
that I called my insurance agent
990
01:00:59,455 --> 01:01:02,157
and I told her to file the claim
against Vertucci.
991
01:01:02,225 --> 01:01:05,794
See, Abby, right there. I mean, you
just put your whole safety at risk.
992
01:01:05,862 --> 01:01:08,497
You know what? I'm done. I don't
know if I can do this anymore.
993
01:01:08,531 --> 01:01:10,565
Fine.
994
01:01:10,633 --> 01:01:12,734
Bye.
995
01:01:12,802 --> 01:01:15,771
Bye.
996
01:01:15,838 --> 01:01:19,341
Thank you
for choosing Bloomers.
997
01:01:19,409 --> 01:01:22,210
Our first wedding!
998
01:01:22,278 --> 01:01:24,146
And at the country club,
no less!
999
01:01:26,315 --> 01:01:29,518
Welcome to Bloomers!
1000
01:01:29,585 --> 01:01:31,920
How can I
help you?
1001
01:01:31,988 --> 01:01:34,423
- County building inspector.
- Do you own the shop?
1002
01:01:34,490 --> 01:01:36,358
Yes, but we had
1003
01:01:36,426 --> 01:01:38,460
an inspection
a couple months ago.
1004
01:01:38,494 --> 01:01:41,496
No record of filing. You just
showed up on my schedule.
1005
01:01:41,564 --> 01:01:43,732
I'll just have
a look around.
1006
01:02:04,821 --> 01:02:08,356
You have some violations.
Unfortunately, I'm gonna'
1007
01:02:08,424 --> 01:02:10,392
- have to shut you down.
- What kind of violations?
1008
01:02:10,426 --> 01:02:12,728
How can this be happening?
1009
01:02:12,795 --> 01:02:15,063
This is harassment!
1010
01:02:15,131 --> 01:02:18,667
Lady, I just go
where I'm told.
1011
01:02:28,411 --> 01:02:31,113
That inspector works
for the county,
1012
01:02:31,180 --> 01:02:34,116
meaning he works
for the commissioner...
1013
01:02:34,183 --> 01:02:36,418
who just decided
1014
01:02:36,486 --> 01:02:38,520
to play
his trump card.
1015
01:02:52,702 --> 01:02:54,603
So then, can you afford
to be shut down?
1016
01:02:54,670 --> 01:02:57,639
- What do you think?
- Alright, well, that leaves you
1017
01:02:57,707 --> 01:02:59,775
two choices,
then, Abby.
1018
01:02:59,809 --> 01:03:02,677
One, you drop your insurance
claim against Vertucci
1019
01:03:02,745 --> 01:03:06,381
or, two, you call his bluff
and keep going.
1020
01:03:06,449 --> 01:03:08,984
The key is why is it
so important
1021
01:03:09,051 --> 01:03:10,919
to Vertucci
that I drop the claim?
1022
01:03:10,987 --> 01:03:13,388
Well, at the very least,
it's a political embarrassment.
1023
01:03:13,422 --> 01:03:16,491
A close family member being
charged with a hit and run.
1024
01:03:16,526 --> 01:03:19,861
Right, and at worst,
he's covering up
1025
01:03:19,896 --> 01:03:22,097
that his nephew Tony was
involved in a murder.
1026
01:03:22,165 --> 01:03:24,432
Look, Abby. Um...
1027
01:03:24,500 --> 01:03:27,202
You can't save the world.
1028
01:03:27,270 --> 01:03:30,472
No, but I can
get an interim stay
1029
01:03:30,540 --> 01:03:33,575
and sue the county
for phony building violations.
1030
01:03:33,643 --> 01:03:35,811
- You wanted my advice, right?
- Okay, here it is.
1031
01:03:35,878 --> 01:03:37,779
Call off
the dogs, Abby.
1032
01:03:37,814 --> 01:03:39,714
Re-open up
your shop.
1033
01:03:39,782 --> 01:03:42,150
Well, what happened
to that army ranger
1034
01:03:42,218 --> 01:03:45,520
who made a career
out of fighting back?
1035
01:03:45,588 --> 01:03:49,825
I guess he figured there were certain
things in life not worth fighting for.
1036
01:03:49,892 --> 01:03:52,861
Well.
1037
01:03:52,895 --> 01:03:54,930
I wish
he thought I was.
1038
01:03:56,833 --> 01:03:58,834
Abby, come on.
1039
01:04:01,170 --> 01:04:04,840
- Thank you.
- So, dear daughter,
1040
01:04:04,907 --> 01:04:06,975
would you like
to tell me why
1041
01:04:07,043 --> 01:04:10,312
there's a "closed for repair"
sign on your shop door
1042
01:04:10,346 --> 01:04:13,582
- or do I have to guess?
- Well, you could guess or...
1043
01:04:13,649 --> 01:04:15,617
I could just
make something up.
1044
01:04:17,720 --> 01:04:20,388
So in the very
few months
1045
01:04:20,456 --> 01:04:22,324
you've been
back here,
1046
01:04:22,391 --> 01:04:25,126
you're going after Vertucci
for harassment,
1047
01:04:25,161 --> 01:04:27,462
your shop
has been closed
1048
01:04:27,530 --> 01:04:29,431
for violations
and you're involved
1049
01:04:29,465 --> 01:04:31,366
- in a murder investigation?
- Dad, I know
1050
01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:34,002
that have made a mess
for myself, okay?
1051
01:04:34,070 --> 01:04:35,937
But I just...
You know what?
1052
01:04:36,005 --> 01:04:38,139
I know
that I'm onto something.
1053
01:04:40,509 --> 01:04:42,744
You're just like
your mother, Abby.
1054
01:04:42,812 --> 01:04:45,347
Heart of gold,
spine of steel.
1055
01:04:45,414 --> 01:04:49,050
What did I get
from you?
1056
01:04:49,085 --> 01:04:52,654
Oh, good cops need
to see the bad guys pay.
1057
01:04:52,722 --> 01:04:56,291
Tough trade
in this world of ours.
1058
01:04:56,325 --> 01:04:59,094
So give me
your professional opinion, huh?
1059
01:04:59,128 --> 01:05:01,062
Doesn't this
all seem suspect?
1060
01:05:01,130 --> 01:05:03,531
Yeah.
1061
01:05:03,599 --> 01:05:05,934
It is.
1062
01:05:06,002 --> 01:05:08,637
I just want you
to be careful.
1063
01:05:08,671 --> 01:05:11,306
- I will.
- I promise.
1064
01:05:18,614 --> 01:05:21,116
What is it, honey?
1065
01:05:21,183 --> 01:05:24,252
Oh! Oh! Nikki.
1066
01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:27,088
She's locked out of her house
and her husband's out of town,
1067
01:05:27,156 --> 01:05:29,758
and I'm the only one
with a key, so...
1068
01:05:29,825 --> 01:05:31,960
Go! Take care
of your friend.
1069
01:05:32,028 --> 01:05:34,262
And I'll order
some disgusting dessert
1070
01:05:34,330 --> 01:05:36,898
you wouldn't
let me have.
1071
01:05:36,933 --> 01:05:39,734
- Don't overdo it!
- You too, sweetheart.
1072
01:05:39,769 --> 01:05:43,104
I mean it. Okay?
1073
01:05:46,909 --> 01:05:49,644
And touchdown!
1074
01:06:00,690 --> 01:06:04,526
Abby! What happened? - I was out with my
dad. I heard the alarm and came to check.
1075
01:06:04,593 --> 01:06:08,330
Oh! Oh!
1076
01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:14,269
We have got
to stop meeting like this.
1077
01:06:14,337 --> 01:06:16,004
- What happened?
- Looks like an intruder
1078
01:06:16,072 --> 01:06:18,139
forced open
your fire escape door.
1079
01:06:18,207 --> 01:06:20,208
Your back area's kind of a mess.
1080
01:06:26,449 --> 01:06:28,550
It's hard to tell
1081
01:06:28,584 --> 01:06:30,685
if anything
actually was taken.
1082
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:32,921
It's not exactly a leap
to wonder that whoever
1083
01:06:32,989 --> 01:06:34,990
cut her brakes could
have done this, right?
1084
01:06:35,024 --> 01:06:37,225
Not a total leap, no,
but typically,
1085
01:06:37,293 --> 01:06:40,195
- they are very different crimes.
- Ms. Knight, would there be
1086
01:06:40,229 --> 01:06:42,897
anyone looking to retaliate
against you for any reason?
1087
01:06:42,932 --> 01:06:45,800
- No. Not offhand.
- I mean,
1088
01:06:45,868 --> 01:06:47,769
we don't get many
disgruntled customers
1089
01:06:47,837 --> 01:06:49,704
if that's what you mean.
1090
01:06:49,772 --> 01:06:53,341
Well, we noticed the "closed
for repair" sign on the door.
1091
01:06:53,409 --> 01:06:55,877
- Any trouble from that?
- No.
1092
01:06:55,945 --> 01:06:58,446
Not at all.
1093
01:06:58,481 --> 01:07:00,715
Gentlemen, we'd like
to actually take some time
1094
01:07:00,783 --> 01:07:03,651
and look around, so if we find
that there's anything missing,
1095
01:07:03,686 --> 01:07:05,887
we'll be sure
to give you a call, okay?
1096
01:07:05,955 --> 01:07:09,057
- Please do. Goodnight, folks.
- Thanks guys.
1097
01:07:11,460 --> 01:07:13,361
I don't know why
I was nervous. I didn't do
1098
01:07:13,396 --> 01:07:15,663
- anything wrong.
- Of course not, no.
1099
01:07:15,731 --> 01:07:17,632
- Oh, what? So this is my fault?
- I didn't say that.
1100
01:07:17,700 --> 01:07:20,168
- Not directly or anything.
- Okay, well, I happen to know
1101
01:07:20,202 --> 01:07:22,470
that it's not Tony Vertucci
because I saw him tonight
1102
01:07:22,538 --> 01:07:24,472
at the Elbow Room
and he was sitting at the bar
1103
01:07:24,540 --> 01:07:26,408
and he was watching the game
and then, guess what?
1104
01:07:26,442 --> 01:07:28,309
He went nuts
when his team lost!
1105
01:07:28,377 --> 01:07:30,245
- He went nuts...
- Crazy, smash-a-bottle nuts!
1106
01:07:30,312 --> 01:07:32,947
- Because he's a die-hard fan!
- Look, he's also a gambler.
1107
01:07:33,015 --> 01:07:35,517
- He probably took a major hit.
- Really? Or maybe this is
1108
01:07:35,551 --> 01:07:37,485
just another one
of Blasko's specials!
1109
01:07:37,553 --> 01:07:39,988
Abby,
1110
01:07:40,022 --> 01:07:41,956
how bad do things have to get
before you realize
1111
01:07:41,991 --> 01:07:43,858
you gotta' back off
on Commissioner Vertucci, huh?
1112
01:07:43,926 --> 01:07:45,760
If you had just let me
release those photos,
1113
01:07:45,795 --> 01:07:47,695
he could have been halfway
to jail right now.
1114
01:07:47,730 --> 01:07:50,565
- You are impossible!
- I like the word "committed".
1115
01:07:50,633 --> 01:07:53,668
Good! I'm glad you like that word,
because you should be. Committed.
1116
01:07:58,274 --> 01:08:00,608
Look. Um...
1117
01:08:00,676 --> 01:08:03,511
I got a bar to run,
so just...
1118
01:08:03,579 --> 01:08:05,580
- Goodnight.
- Bye.
1119
01:08:21,063 --> 01:08:22,964
"Elvis Jones dead"?
1120
01:08:23,032 --> 01:08:24,999
"In his cell"?
1121
01:08:25,034 --> 01:08:28,770
"Preliminary reports say
that Jones died of hanging."
1122
01:08:28,804 --> 01:08:32,540
Oh no! No, no!
1123
01:08:38,013 --> 01:08:41,149
- Abby! Abby, slow down!
- Hey, hey, hey!
1124
01:08:41,217 --> 01:08:43,118
Hey, slow down!
1125
01:08:43,185 --> 01:08:45,019
What's wrong?
You okay?
1126
01:08:45,087 --> 01:08:47,622
Have you heard?
1127
01:08:47,690 --> 01:08:50,758
No, heard what?
1128
01:08:50,826 --> 01:08:53,695
Elvis is dead.
1129
01:08:53,729 --> 01:08:55,697
He hanged himself
in his cell last night.
1130
01:08:57,633 --> 01:08:59,467
Abby, I'm so sorry
to hear that.
1131
01:08:59,535 --> 01:09:01,402
I'm sorry.
1132
01:09:01,470 --> 01:09:04,239
He was killed, Marco!
1133
01:09:04,273 --> 01:09:06,474
Somebody murdered him.
1134
01:09:06,542 --> 01:09:09,043
Okay, look.
1135
01:09:09,078 --> 01:09:12,447
Calm down, alright?
Let's uh... Let's...
1136
01:09:12,515 --> 01:09:14,516
Let's just relax
for a second, alright?
1137
01:09:16,418 --> 01:09:21,356
He was a mess,
but he wasn't suicidal.
1138
01:09:21,423 --> 01:09:25,126
- How do you know that, Abby?
- Because I talked to him!
1139
01:09:25,194 --> 01:09:27,695
He was upbeat.
He was optimistic.
1140
01:09:27,730 --> 01:09:29,631
Well, he could have had
a breakdown too.
1141
01:09:29,698 --> 01:09:31,499
Don't play
devil's advocate with me!
1142
01:09:31,534 --> 01:09:33,334
- Alright, alright.
- The guy was murdered.
1143
01:09:33,402 --> 01:09:35,637
Well, I...
1144
01:09:35,704 --> 01:09:37,572
I think I'm starting
to agree with you.
1145
01:09:37,640 --> 01:09:39,541
Oh!
1146
01:09:39,608 --> 01:09:41,476
Was that
so difficult?
1147
01:09:41,544 --> 01:09:44,946
I keep coming back
to Blasko on this.
1148
01:09:45,014 --> 01:09:47,482
On most things,
really. I...
1149
01:09:47,516 --> 01:09:49,450
What does
that mean?
1150
01:09:49,485 --> 01:09:52,854
I do a little of my own research
on our good friend Detective Blasko.
1151
01:09:52,922 --> 01:09:55,757
I found out
that Gilbert Blaskovich
1152
01:09:55,824 --> 01:09:58,293
It turned out he was a cop
in Ohio one time
1153
01:09:58,327 --> 01:10:01,062
before he was bounced
on extortion charges.
1154
01:10:01,130 --> 01:10:04,566
And yet he was
still hired here?
1155
01:10:04,633 --> 01:10:07,502
I guess he was running away from his
past and he reinvented himself, yeah.
1156
01:10:07,570 --> 01:10:10,972
- What did he extort?
- Money from a drug dealer.
1157
01:10:12,741 --> 01:10:15,977
Do you think Commissioner
Vertucci's in the drug business?
1158
01:10:16,011 --> 01:10:19,614
- I doubt it. It's too sordid.
- I mean, he might be involved
1159
01:10:19,682 --> 01:10:21,950
in something... or he might
not be involved in anything.
1160
01:10:21,984 --> 01:10:23,918
You see, the fact of the matter
is, you and I don't know.
1161
01:10:23,953 --> 01:10:26,621
And until we do know, we need to
keep this to ourselves, okay?
1162
01:10:28,524 --> 01:10:30,558
Look, Abby.
1163
01:10:30,593 --> 01:10:32,594
We're partners,
aren't we?
1164
01:10:35,231 --> 01:10:37,232
Yeah.
1165
01:10:44,273 --> 01:10:47,809
On the plus side, it's giving
us a chance to get reorganized.
1166
01:10:47,876 --> 01:10:50,778
Sweetie.
1167
01:10:50,813 --> 01:10:53,114
Thanks, but you don't have
to put a happy face on this.
1168
01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:00,488
- What's wrong, Abs?
- Have you seen the yellow mum
1169
01:11:00,556 --> 01:11:03,591
that I got from the nursery
the other day?
1170
01:11:03,626 --> 01:11:07,161
- Yeah, I put it in the big fridge.
- It was looking a little droopy.
1171
01:11:19,975 --> 01:11:22,277
It's not here anywhere!
1172
01:11:31,186 --> 01:11:33,054
Well, hello, Dave King!
1173
01:11:33,122 --> 01:11:35,156
I hope you're having
a better morning than I am.
1174
01:11:35,224 --> 01:11:37,058
Actually, it's a great morning
for Penny Harding.
1175
01:11:37,126 --> 01:11:40,895
- Tom Harding, not so much.
- Why? What's going on?
1176
01:11:43,098 --> 01:11:46,301
Harding is hiding over
8 million bucks in that account.
1177
01:11:46,368 --> 01:11:49,237
That's 4 times as much as what
showed in his Sprout Corp.
1178
01:11:49,271 --> 01:11:53,074
- Wow, talk about deep roots!
- What kind of business is it?
1179
01:11:53,142 --> 01:11:56,344
Well, there's still no info, but it's
definitely lucrative and secretive.
1180
01:11:56,412 --> 01:12:01,015
That's always a shady mix. - Exactly. Listen,
I'll keep digging. I'll let you know, OK?
1181
01:12:01,083 --> 01:12:04,786
Alright, I'll catch you later.
1182
01:12:04,853 --> 01:12:07,855
New Chapel authorities have said
today there will be no investigation
1183
01:12:07,890 --> 01:12:10,758
into the apparent suicide
of Elvis Jones.
1184
01:12:10,793 --> 01:12:13,728
Jones was in jail for the murder
of William Ryan.
1185
01:12:13,796 --> 01:12:16,631
Well, isn't that convenient.
1186
01:12:16,699 --> 01:12:20,668
I was hardly cleaned out.
An old laptop, 80 bucks...
1187
01:12:20,736 --> 01:12:24,739
Oh, and an ugly mum plant that I
can't even swear the intruder took.
1188
01:12:24,807 --> 01:12:27,342
- Mum? Like chrysanthemum?
- Yeah.
1189
01:12:27,409 --> 01:12:31,145
- It's a pretty common plant, right?
- Yeah, really common, why?
1190
01:12:31,213 --> 01:12:35,383
No reason, except one was collected
from the Ryan murder scene.
1191
01:12:35,417 --> 01:12:37,652
Someone from Tom's Green Thumb Nursery
came to claim it the other day.
1192
01:12:37,720 --> 01:12:40,388
- I guess it was just a coincidence.
- Why would they want
1193
01:12:40,422 --> 01:12:42,557
Billy's mum? They already
have a ton of their own.
1194
01:12:42,591 --> 01:12:46,627
And wait... you released
murder evidence?
1195
01:12:46,695 --> 01:12:51,232
Not me. One of the investigators clearly
decided it didn't matter to the case.
1196
01:12:51,300 --> 01:12:55,436
Abby, it's a crummy potted
plant. It was half dead.
1197
01:12:55,471 --> 01:12:59,307
- You alright?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
1198
01:12:59,341 --> 01:13:03,845
I just have to get back to the
shop. I'll see you around, Greg.
1199
01:13:06,281 --> 01:13:10,218
What if Buzz or Harding or somebody from the
nursery wanted my mum for the same reason
1200
01:13:10,285 --> 01:13:12,353
they wanted Billy's mum?
1201
01:13:12,421 --> 01:13:15,156
And why were they bringing
the mums out of the greenhouse
1202
01:13:15,224 --> 01:13:17,959
that day instead of in?
1203
01:13:17,993 --> 01:13:21,295
What is that? Is that some kind
of reversed delivery process?
1204
01:13:21,363 --> 01:13:24,899
I don't know. Maybe somebody ordered a whole
lot of mums and they were just picking them up.
1205
01:13:24,967 --> 01:13:27,402
Or maybe there was something
about those off-limit mums
1206
01:13:27,469 --> 01:13:29,937
that made them extra special,
you know,
1207
01:13:30,005 --> 01:13:32,774
really valuable and worth
robbing or...
1208
01:13:32,808 --> 01:13:36,911
killing over. There's only one way to
find out: I'm gonna storm the greenhouse
1209
01:13:36,979 --> 01:13:40,748
and get another one of those mums.
Why does it have to be mums?
1210
01:13:40,816 --> 01:13:44,752
OK, what is it
with you and mums?
1211
01:13:47,156 --> 01:13:50,158
OK. When Chuck died,
1212
01:13:50,225 --> 01:13:53,961
I was a mess. I was depressed,
obviously, but...
1213
01:13:54,029 --> 01:13:57,198
you know, people came over
and they hugged and they cried
1214
01:13:57,266 --> 01:13:59,634
and they sent flowers,
1215
01:13:59,701 --> 01:14:04,138
and there was this one huge
arrangement of mums,
1216
01:14:04,206 --> 01:14:07,442
and they were mums,
just wilting mums...
1217
01:14:10,646 --> 01:14:15,149
...reminding me that
he was... dead.
1218
01:14:17,519 --> 01:14:20,688
- Abby, I'm so sorry...
- So, uh...
1219
01:14:20,756 --> 01:14:23,357
I'm good. I'm fine. And...
1220
01:14:23,425 --> 01:14:25,793
Do you want to come with me,
1221
01:14:25,828 --> 01:14:28,596
be my lookout or something? - Yeah, of
course. What time? - Now. Let's go now.
1222
01:14:28,664 --> 01:14:30,932
I can't right now.
1223
01:14:30,999 --> 01:14:33,301
It's almost lunch rush, I have
to be here. Can I come after?
1224
01:14:33,335 --> 01:14:35,703
- Don't worry about it, it's OK.
- You sure?
1225
01:14:35,737 --> 01:14:38,005
I'm gonna go in by myself,
I'll get in, I'll get out.
1226
01:14:38,073 --> 01:14:41,008
Just... keep your phone on you,
1227
01:14:41,076 --> 01:14:43,411
- in case...
- Alright, I will. Good luck.
1228
01:15:39,201 --> 01:15:42,003
Orchid bulbs.
1229
01:15:54,116 --> 01:15:57,285
"As thousands of new plants can
be reproduced from a single bulb,
1230
01:15:57,319 --> 01:16:01,589
"the rarest or most endangered of
orchids can command up to $50,000
1231
01:16:01,657 --> 01:16:04,225
apiece on the black market."
1232
01:16:39,394 --> 01:16:43,764
I need
help. I'm at Bloomers, on Franklin.
1233
01:16:51,039 --> 01:16:54,108
Where are you? Come on,
I just wanna talk.
1234
01:16:56,111 --> 01:16:59,213
Put the lights on,
for God's sake. Find them.
1235
01:17:09,224 --> 01:17:13,260
Ohh... What do we
got here, huh?
1236
01:17:13,328 --> 01:17:15,496
Come on, get up, get up.
1237
01:17:15,564 --> 01:17:18,432
- Gimme the phone.
- Take it easy.
1238
01:17:18,500 --> 01:17:20,635
Take it easy.
1239
01:17:25,073 --> 01:17:27,141
I'm curious.
1240
01:17:27,209 --> 01:17:29,610
What part of "stay out of other
people's lives" didn't you understand?
1241
01:17:29,645 --> 01:17:33,648
- What do you want?
- I'm pretty sure you know.
1242
01:17:33,715 --> 01:17:37,518
I saw you leave the nursery today
and you weren't empty-handed.
1243
01:17:37,552 --> 01:17:39,987
Oh, that mum?
1244
01:17:40,055 --> 01:17:43,057
Well, I bought it.
You want a receipt?
1245
01:17:43,125 --> 01:17:46,360
- You're about 50 grand short.
- Enough. Where is it?
1246
01:17:48,296 --> 01:17:51,966
It's behind those pots.
1247
01:18:00,108 --> 01:18:03,444
Gimme the word, I'll end it. - Put that
gun away, I don't want another mess!
1248
01:18:03,512 --> 01:18:05,813
Hey, I told you that kid jumped
me, alright? It was an accident!
1249
01:18:05,881 --> 01:18:09,817
Shut up, you idiot. Now go
and get the rope in my car, now!
1250
01:18:09,851 --> 01:18:13,320
Now!
1251
01:18:13,355 --> 01:18:16,724
So, what?
1252
01:18:16,792 --> 01:18:19,393
- Buzz killed Billy Ryan, huh?
- What are you talking about?
1253
01:18:19,461 --> 01:18:22,530
Billy found out about your little orchid
scheme and tried to blow the whistle on you,
1254
01:18:22,597 --> 01:18:25,900
blackmail you, so you ordered
Buzz to get rid of him.
1255
01:18:25,967 --> 01:18:28,969
I wouldn't be so quick to defend
Billy Ryan. He was no boy scout.
1256
01:18:29,037 --> 01:18:32,506
- Yeah, what was he into that you weren't?
- He ran a sweet little
1257
01:18:32,541 --> 01:18:36,343
sports betting operation, if you must know.
Very entrepreneurial, I'll give him that.
1258
01:18:36,378 --> 01:18:39,480
So you weren't the only
illegal businessman in town.
1259
01:18:39,548 --> 01:18:41,082
Get up.
1260
01:18:41,149 --> 01:18:43,217
Let's go!
1261
01:18:49,624 --> 01:18:51,659
Ah!
1262
01:18:51,727 --> 01:18:54,495
You alright?
1263
01:18:54,529 --> 01:18:57,565
Yeah, I'm fine, I'm fine. - When I called
it went straight to voicemail, so I thought
1264
01:18:57,599 --> 01:19:01,435
I'd come around and make sure
everything was alright. My hand hurts.
1265
01:19:01,470 --> 01:19:04,038
Your hand hurts?
1266
01:19:04,072 --> 01:19:08,042
- I just...
- What?
1267
01:19:08,110 --> 01:19:10,978
- Look at it. Look at it.
- Oh, I can imagine.
1268
01:19:21,990 --> 01:19:24,391
- Don't worry about those two.
- They ain't going anywhere.
1269
01:19:24,459 --> 01:19:27,261
- Thank you. - Thank you, Officer.
- Have a good night.
1270
01:19:30,499 --> 01:19:33,501
Wow, huh? You OK?
1271
01:19:33,568 --> 01:19:37,772
Yeah. "Wow" is right. Man...
1272
01:19:37,839 --> 01:19:40,508
I still cannot figure out
1273
01:19:40,542 --> 01:19:43,244
how the police pegged it
on poor Elvis.
1274
01:19:43,278 --> 01:19:45,746
- Abby!
- Greg?
1275
01:19:45,814 --> 01:19:48,516
- What are you doing here?
- Marco texted me.
1276
01:19:48,550 --> 01:19:50,785
Told me to get here ASAP. - What?
You two don't even know each other.
1277
01:19:50,852 --> 01:19:53,654
Actually, we do. As of today.
1278
01:19:53,722 --> 01:19:56,223
Yeah, we talked this morning and it
got me thinking about the Ryan murder.
1279
01:19:56,291 --> 01:19:59,860
Maybe a beat might have been missed, especially
when it concerns Commissioner Vertucci.
1280
01:19:59,928 --> 01:20:03,030
He came by the bar and he wanted
me to show him the payoff pictures.
1281
01:20:03,098 --> 01:20:05,032
What happened
1282
01:20:05,100 --> 01:20:07,935
to career suicide? - I figured
I could be as brave as you.
1283
01:20:08,003 --> 01:20:11,472
And Marco added Blasko
to the mix
1284
01:20:11,540 --> 01:20:13,541
and I confronted him.
1285
01:20:13,608 --> 01:20:17,211
He folded and admitted
to harassing you,
1286
01:20:17,279 --> 01:20:19,914
the tickets, the dead flowers,
the cutting of the brake lines...
1287
01:20:19,981 --> 01:20:22,383
all his handiwork.
1288
01:20:22,450 --> 01:20:24,418
And Elvis' arrest
1289
01:20:24,486 --> 01:20:26,720
and confession, ordered
1290
01:20:26,788 --> 01:20:29,390
by the commissioner. - Yeah. He paid
Blasko off for the whole shebang.
1291
01:20:29,424 --> 01:20:32,827
And Elvis' death... - I suspect
Blasko had a hand in it as well.
1292
01:20:32,894 --> 01:20:37,131
But believe me, this part of the
investigation is just starting.
1293
01:20:37,199 --> 01:20:39,433
- Thanks to you, Abby.
- Abby,
1294
01:20:39,467 --> 01:20:41,869
Tony Vertucci did hit your car,
1295
01:20:41,903 --> 01:20:44,171
but he didn't kill anyone. He
actually went over to Billy's...
1296
01:20:44,239 --> 01:20:47,875
Tony went to Billy's
to place a sports bet,
1297
01:20:47,943 --> 01:20:50,945
saw Billy dead,
got scared and ran.
1298
01:20:50,979 --> 01:20:54,782
Harding told me all about
Billy's side job,
1299
01:20:54,816 --> 01:20:57,151
so the Tony piece
fits right in.
1300
01:20:57,219 --> 01:21:01,055
Tony's got a huge gambling debt
and his uncle tried to conceal it.
1301
01:21:01,122 --> 01:21:04,959
But with his visit to Billy
and your hit-and-run,
1302
01:21:05,026 --> 01:21:08,195
he was afraid that it might
place Tony at the murder scene.
1303
01:21:08,263 --> 01:21:11,799
And it would give Tony
a motive for killing Billy,
1304
01:21:11,867 --> 01:21:15,836
whether he did or didn't. Who
wants that before an auction day?
1305
01:21:15,904 --> 01:21:20,107
So does that mean the inspector was all
a part of the commissioner's plan?
1306
01:21:20,175 --> 01:21:23,143
And...
1307
01:21:23,211 --> 01:21:25,846
that means that I can
open my shop again?
1308
01:21:25,881 --> 01:21:29,783
- Absolutely. You're back in business.
- Congratulations, Abby.
1309
01:21:29,851 --> 01:21:31,719
- Yay!
- Hug?
1310
01:21:31,786 --> 01:21:34,788
- Oh... - For old time's sake.
- OK.
1311
01:21:34,856 --> 01:21:39,026
Nikki is going to be jealous.
Alright, let go.
1312
01:21:41,796 --> 01:21:44,865
- See you soon. - Thanks, Greg.
- Have a good night, man.
1313
01:21:44,933 --> 01:21:47,668
Alright, you too.
1314
01:21:47,736 --> 01:21:50,571
Wow...
1315
01:21:50,639 --> 01:21:52,907
Nice work, partner.
1316
01:21:52,941 --> 01:21:55,142
Well, I couldn't
have done it without you.
1317
01:21:55,210 --> 01:21:57,444
As a matter of fact, I wouldn't
have done it without you.
1318
01:21:57,479 --> 01:22:01,515
Me neither. - You have to
promise me one thing, though.
1319
01:22:01,583 --> 01:22:04,385
No more amateur sleuthing, OK?
1320
01:22:04,452 --> 01:22:06,754
Please.
1321
01:22:06,821 --> 01:22:10,858
I cannot make a promise
that I can't keep.
1322
01:22:10,892 --> 01:22:14,295
OK, then can you promise
to let me take you
1323
01:22:14,362 --> 01:22:16,931
on a proper date?
No stakeouts, no fistfighting,
1324
01:22:16,998 --> 01:22:19,967
no fake plant shopping. Please.
1325
01:22:20,035 --> 01:22:22,770
It would be nice. - Now what
would the fun in that be?
1326
01:22:22,804 --> 01:22:25,639
Come on.
1327
01:22:25,674 --> 01:22:29,643
You're terrible. - Alright,
I can promise you something
1328
01:22:29,678 --> 01:22:32,880
- regarding the date.
- Mm-hmm?
1329
01:22:32,948 --> 01:22:36,750
And I can promise you
it'll be a date.
1330
01:22:36,818 --> 01:22:39,820
Thank you.
1331
01:22:41,823 --> 01:22:45,025
- Very much.
- Don't you have a bar to run?
1332
01:22:48,863 --> 01:22:51,231
Yeah, I do.
1333
01:22:51,299 --> 01:22:53,701
Ciao.
1334
01:22:59,441 --> 01:23:03,344
What are you looking at?
1335
01:23:03,411 --> 01:23:06,080
You're not so bad.
