00:00Oh
00:30Oh, my God.
01:00Oh, my God.
01:30Nothing surprising to report he died of gunshot wounds inflicted from behind.
01:41He had an enlarged thyroid and a little arterial sclerosis.
01:46And his last meal of fried oysters and cake probably didn't help matters.
01:50He's the second Hill Ridge estate resident this month.
01:53The first one was identified as a Bill Donnelly.
01:56Kind of puts a new spin on their motto, security is our priority.
02:00Those gated communities are pretty strict.
02:03Maybe he put too much of that tan bark mulch on his lawn.
02:08Well, it was stuck to the bottom of his sneakers.
02:10Did you say the shot came from inside the community?
02:13Yeah, it looks like it.
02:14But the lawyers are so good, they've stolen all this, so they're getting anything.
02:18Is there any connection between the morning victim two?
02:21None so far.
02:22Except for the high probability there's the same killer.
02:25I'm sorry, ma'am, this area is restricted.
02:29Not again.
02:30Don't you know each other?
02:32Hi, I'm Shelby Turner.
02:34I'm a reporter.
02:35For Comet Magazine.
02:38Is that the zombies ate my babies?
02:40No, he's the scum of the earth, Comet.
02:42We do hard-hitting investigative journalism.
02:47Perhaps you read a piece of mine a few months back about the bigger staff crime family, Dr.
02:53Sloan.
02:55Sloan!
02:56You two are related!
02:57See how fast you made that connection?
02:59Boy, those zombie children didn't stand a chance.
03:03Who's this?
03:05Excuse me.
03:06It's Paul Foster, the guy you were bugging me about this morning.
03:10She abarched into the station and demanded to see the investigator in charge.
03:14Yeah, well, I'd finish the autopsy.
03:16Well, don't volunteer anything.
03:18So what leads have you developed?
03:20Nothing I'm going to share with you.
03:22Well, there's more to this story than you realize.
03:25Foster called me.
03:26He told me that there were alien replicants living in that community.
03:31You're missing the best of a lifetime.
03:39I'm the cover in a gated community of million-dollar homes.
03:48Captain, we're getting nowhere.
03:50We can't get past the lawyers, much less the front gate.
03:53I'm not questioning the need for an investigation to see the cover part.
03:57What are you going as?
03:59No, as a resident at the victim's house.
04:02Paul Foster, as far as we can tell, he has no known relatives.
04:05Until now.
04:06Well, what about places of business known enemies?
04:09The usual.
04:10Not dead ends.
04:11The guy just moved here.
04:12He lives off his investments.
04:13We can't come up with any reason why someone would shoot the guy.
04:16What about witnesses?
04:17Nah.
04:18Well, what's your cover going to be?
04:20A physician.
04:25Come on, now, think about it.
04:26It's perfect.
04:27My father's on staff at Community General.
04:29I can set up a practice there in two minutes.
04:31You can also perform a couple of surgeries and pick up a little extra cash on the side.
04:37Ear, nose, and throat guy.
04:38No scalpels.
04:39Just popsicle sticks.
04:41You know, your cover is supposed to be convincing.
04:44How are you going to plough being a doctor?
04:46Come on, Captain.
04:47I've been around hospitals and doctors all my life.
04:49For example, take that mole out of your cheek.
04:54What about it?
04:55It's a congenital nevus.
04:58If there's one chance in 50, that'll turn into a full-blown melanoma.
05:02Well, thanks for the warning.
05:04I'll cut it out later with an ice pick.
05:07Slightly misshapen.
05:09Flat to the skin.
05:10No hair follicles.
05:12Yeah, it's a problem waiting to happen.
05:14Especially if you have a history of severe sunburn.
05:18That, uh, hasn't changed shape recently, has it?
05:21Hey, now, why don't we lay off the mole, okay?
05:25It's part of my personality.
05:28So, I have your permission to go undercover?
05:31Yeah.
05:33Just remember, no malpractice suits, okay?
05:38Oh, and, uh, I'm serious about that mole.
05:41Out the door's waiting.
05:43Yep.
05:44Out the door's waiting.
06:14What's your name?
06:15Dr. Steve Foster.
06:19You, uh, protect us from killer bees?
06:24The gun.
06:25The joke.
06:34Welcome to Hill Ridge Estate, sir.
06:36Have a pleasant stay.
06:39Right.
07:09Ah, you must be Dr. Foster.
07:32I'm Cliff Mulaney, head of the Hormonist Association here.
07:35I'm terribly sorry about what happened to your brother.
07:38Me too. It was a real shock.
07:41I don't know how long you and Mrs. Foster plan on staying,
07:44but for whatever that period of time, I'd like to welcome you to the community.
07:48Uh, Mrs. Foster?
07:50Hello, honey. I didn't think I'd see you till tonight.
07:55I didn't think I'd see you at all.
07:58I decided to come early.
08:00Well, she warned me.
08:01I didn't have time. I had to get groceries for the dinner party.
08:05Thanks very much for the invitation.
08:06I think this is a great way of remembering Paul.
08:10It was a pleasure to meet the both of you.
08:12Let me know if I can do anything, and always feel free to call security.
08:16They're extremely efficient.
08:18They have that reputation.
08:21Excuse me.
08:21You realize the position you put me in?
08:26The best possible one.
08:28We get to talk.
08:30Of course.
08:31Suitcases, darling.
08:34Wouldn't want to forget my suitcases, darling.
08:38That's a trip I've had.
08:40Where are you going?
08:41We need to talk.
08:42Not until we unpack your bags.
08:44The master bedroom's up here.
08:45You're going to love it.
08:46Better.
08:54And wait until you see the master bathroom.
08:56It's gigantic.
08:57From now on, we need to hear the shower running.
09:21It means I want to talk to you in here.
09:23Better acoustics.
09:24No, it's the only place that we can talk safely.
09:27Why, alien replicants don't like water?
09:30The place is bugged top to bottom.
09:33You've been reading too many of your own magazines.
09:35Paul Foster told me.
09:36He used to always call me from the bathroom with the water running.
09:41He said it was the only place that he felt safe.
09:43Well, maybe he felt safe here.
09:45I don't.
09:46What are you doing?
09:47I'm leaving.
09:48Steam is bad for my jacket.
09:49Didn't you hear what I said?
09:51Paul Foster was scared.
09:52He may have been scared, but he wasn't very smart.
09:55Cell phone conversations can very easily be intercepted.
09:58Well, I think he feels worse than anybody about that.
10:01Now that he's dead, that's a condition I'd like to avoid.
10:05Well, the way I feel is a condition I might consider helping you achieve.
10:09Ah, you need me.
10:12Oh, I can hardly wait to hear how.
10:14I already told them all that I was your wife.
10:17If you kicked me out, you'd blow your cover.
10:19And how did you find out about my cover?
10:22I have my sources.
10:24When this is over, you're going to jail for interfering with a police investigation.
10:29When this is over, you'll be happy I was here.
10:32Now, clean up.
10:32We have guests coming over.
10:34And remember, in case Foster was right about all the bugs, and he was,
10:39We are husband and wife, even when we're completely alone together.
10:44Unless we're taking a shower.
10:46You'll feel so much better.
10:47That's an interesting technique, picking up before it like that.
11:11Protects the monograms on the handles.
11:13Too many hands would just rub it right off.
11:16Well, these aren't monogrammed.
11:18It should be.
11:20It's an old habit you fall back into when you're trying to keep yourself busy
11:24after your brother lies.
11:27You know, it's funny.
11:29He never mentioned either of you.
11:31There was a strain between Paul and Steve.
11:35It's just a tragedy.
11:36They never patch things up.
11:38I know.
11:40She's very efficient.
11:55Obsessed.
11:56Pretty.
11:58Annoying.
11:59How do you mean?
12:00Well, for instance, she thinks a whole house is bug.
12:04Is it?
12:05Downfall.
12:07Did I shoot?
12:08No.
12:09I think I give her the benefit of the doubt.
12:11She's been two steps ahead so far.
12:13Excuse me, Dr. Foster.
12:14I've got some folks here I'd like you to meet.
12:17This is Charles and Frederica Harris.
12:19They're your next door neighbors.
12:21And Frank and Kathleen Wolverton.
12:23They live down the block.
12:24Right?
12:25Dr. Steve Foster.
12:26Hey, now, this is Dr. Mark Sloan.
12:29He's my boss at Community General.
12:31I said, it's quite a neighborhood you've got here.
12:33Yeah, sure it's nicer than our old place.
12:35Certainly more efficient.
12:36A doll.
12:37Every property is just like every other property.
12:40Fiskew lawns, shag carpets.
12:43There's blonde wood and marble everywhere.
12:46But it did put you into redecorating overdrivers.
12:49You should see a wheel of those credit cards.
12:52Frank complains, but I've made the house feel just like we're back in Miami.
12:57You ever said that he did a nice job at this house?
12:59Yes, but it's not warm.
13:01I told Paul he really should have used more color.
13:06We are so sorry about your brother.
13:09It was a terrible tragedy.
13:11Thank you very much.
13:13Did you know Paul Votter's name?
13:15Um, well, you know, I don't think anybody really knew Paul.
13:20True words were never spoken.
13:24Thanks for having us, Doctor.
13:25We're going to take a look.
13:27Thank you all for coming.
13:28I think I'll go fresh with my soul.
13:30Good night.
13:33That's, uh, one long-suffering man.
13:37But I'm not.
13:37I know what you are.
13:41I know what you're doing here.
13:43Stay, and I'll tear your heart out and eat it with some berries and cream for breakfast.
13:51Ah, Shelby.
13:53Great dinner party.
13:54Thanks so much for having us.
13:55Thank you for coming.
13:56Absolutely.
13:57Wouldn't have missed it for the world.
13:58Oh, darling.
14:11I need your help with the shower.
14:14Oh, darling.
14:15I need your help with the shower.
14:18I don't see anything wrong with the shower.
14:46Here.
14:49Wouldn't it be easier to stick those in a dishwasher?
14:51That would wash the fingerprints off.
14:53Oh, along with the gravy and those little bits of ham.
14:57Just run these.
14:58We need to find out who these people really are.
15:01You set up this party just to get fingerprints?
15:03There is a conspiracy going on in this community.
15:06I can feel it.
15:07There is no conspiracy.
15:09There is one bad guy, and I've got a pretty good idea who he is.
15:12Who?
15:13Charles Harris.
15:14You threatened to kill me?
15:16Like you're trying to do with his speed.
15:18That's wonderful.
15:20Well, thank you for your concern.
15:22Did you say anything about the mothership?
15:24Signals from the shower nebula?
15:25No, but he did mention the trilateral commission and the earthquake machine the Russians have been using.
15:32Okay, fine.
15:33Don't take me seriously.
15:34Don't come crying to me when replicants take over.
15:38You were right about one thing.
15:39The house is bugged.
15:42I found a transmitter in the intercom.
15:44And?
15:45And I found a transmitter in the intercom.
15:48Would it kill you to say thanks for the warning?
15:51Yes.
15:53Now, uh, how far are we going to go with this little, uh, marriage deception?
15:59Because the people that are listening are not going to stop just because the sun went down.
16:05Don't worry.
16:06I've got it all figured out.
16:16How can you be so insensitive, you pig?
16:21You can sleep on the couch again tonight.
16:27Until I change my mind.
16:31Men.
16:41No, no, no.
16:44Oh, come on, Amanda.
16:45You don't even know what I'm going to ask.
16:46I don't do windows.
16:47I do not do dishes.
16:49So forget about it.
16:50Look, this is a dirty silverware from last night's party.
16:53I've got to get the fingerprints off of it.
16:55I can't go anywhere near the station as long as I'm posing as Dr. Stephen Foster.
16:58Otolaryng...
16:59Otolaryngologist.
17:01Whatever.
17:02All right, I'm going to work with you.
17:04I'll squeeze this in between the stroke victim and the guy who got hit by a train.
17:09You're welcome.
17:10Hey!
17:10Your congratulations are in order.
17:14What are you talking?
17:15A wife and a medical degree all in one day?
17:18And I'm counting the hours so they don't have either.
17:21All right, I have the chart on Donnelly here, the first Hillridge victim.
17:25The circumstances were almost identical to Foster's killing.
17:28They both were shot twice.
17:30Went to the base of the skull and the second time through the heart.
17:33And they both were shot from behind at long distances.
17:36We're looking for a professional sharpshooter.
17:39Sounds like a warm and welcoming community you live in.
17:44Amanda Bentley, pathology.
17:48Yes, he'll be right down.
17:51Steve, you're not going to believe this.
17:52You have a patient waiting for you downstairs.
17:55Right.
17:56I'm not joking.
17:57They want you down there, stat.
17:59That means fast.
18:01I know.
18:01What am I going to do?
18:12What are you going to do?
18:12You treat him.
18:13Examine him.
18:14Comfort him.
18:15Most importantly, don't hurt him.
18:17Part of the Hippocratic Oath.
18:19I never took a Hippocratic Oath.
18:21You kidding me?
18:22In that cool jacket?
18:24That fancy name tag?
18:25You could have fooled me.
18:27You're enjoying this, aren't you?
18:28Yes, I am.
18:29All those times you dragged me into doing police work.
18:31All those times I stood face-to-face with death.
18:34You never stood face-to-face with death.
18:36All the times I mistakenly thought I was standing face-to-face with death.
18:40This is payback time.
18:41There's some rubber gloves and that dispenser on the wall in case you need them.
18:46In case I need them for what?
18:48Probing.
18:50You're coming with me.
18:51I can't write notes.
18:52I need a console.
18:54Here's his chart.
18:58Doctor.
19:01Well, hiya, Doc.
19:02I hope you don't mind what I remembered you said.
19:05Your nose and throat guy.
19:08Well, I've been putting off getting this sinus thing checked out for the longest time.
19:12But who better to check me than Paul's brother?
19:14Yes, who better?
19:18Mr. Maloney, this is Dr. Travis.
19:20He's a promising young physician here.
19:23Learning at the feet of the master.
19:25Wow.
19:26Guess I picked the right doctor.
19:29So where did you transfer from?
19:33Private practice.
19:34So, uh, Dr. Travis, what would your first diagnostic move be?
19:44Well, I think I would begin by examining the patient.
19:49Good answer.
19:50Oh, you're right.
19:51He's a smart one.
19:53You know, Paul never spoke too much about his family.
19:57What do you think he takes after your dad?
20:00Our sister.
20:01Uh, now then, uh...
20:05Which end of the depressor do you use?
20:12Uh, this one.
20:14No.
20:15Wide?
20:16Should you be examining the patient?
20:19Well, I need a baseline for the, uh, purposes of comparison.
20:23Say, ah.
20:24Ah.
20:25Uh, yeah.
20:28Mm-hmm.
20:28Well, it's a good thing I decided to take a look.
20:31This tonsil back here is pretty inflamed.
20:34Oh.
20:35This one back here.
20:36Blah!
20:37We'll, uh, discuss that tonsil later, doctor.
20:40But I'm afraid I may have to take it out.
20:42Whatever you say, doc.
20:44You know, it's a terrible shame about Paul.
20:47I just can't imagine why anyone would want to harm a man like your brother.
20:51Neither can I.
20:52All righty then, let's, uh, just have a look, shall we?
20:56Uh-huh.
20:56Uh, can I get a new one of those?
20:59That one's kind of wet.
21:00Oh, you know what?
21:01We won't even use a tongue depressor.
21:03That's how good he is.
21:05Yeah, we get it.
21:06Uh-huh.
21:07You know, I think I'll refer you to one of our allergists.
21:10Huh?
21:11We only have one allergist.
21:13Mm-hmm.
21:13That's the one I'm going to refer you to.
21:15Oh, good.
21:17Because I'd like to get to the bottom of this.
21:18Mm-hmm.
21:19See you to it, will you, Dr. Travis, and, uh, make it snappy.
21:21We're late for a while.
21:25It's the best.
21:26It's the best.
21:56We're late for a while.
21:59What?
22:04No.
22:06No.
22:11No.
22:12No.
22:15No.
22:20No.
22:21No.
22:23No.
22:23No.
22:23No.
22:23Hi, I'm Paul Foster's sister-in-law.
22:36The house around the corner, the stucco one with the tile roof.
22:44They're all stucco, and they all have a tile, ma'am.
22:50450.
22:50The TV's broken. I think the cable's out.
22:56I'm not going to have a look.
23:09Sorry, we're late. Dr. Travis invited me to go on rounds with her.
23:13Oh, please stop discouraging him.
23:15The doctor invited himself.
23:17Yeah, I gotta maintain my cover. Someone's already come to check on it.
23:20With my luck, the whole community will show up for an exam.
23:23Well, while you guys were on your rounds, we were busy getting the fingerprint analysis done.
23:28That was fast work.
23:30Deceased, deceased, deceased.
23:33What's going on?
23:34All the guests at the party were already dead.
23:36Well, that's impossible. They didn't look dead, and they ate it, breathed it, and didn't even smell bad.
23:42And he says he isn't a doctor.
23:45Oh, come on. You guys cooked this up, didn't you? This is a joke.
23:49No joke and no mistake.
23:51Honey, I'm home.
23:57Why did you knock?
24:16Really? Couples don't knock. They barge in.
24:19At least that's what my ex-husband did.
24:21It's one of the reasons I divorced him.
24:23And where have you been all day?
24:26I would expect to be abandoned by my ex-husband like that, but you're a cop.
24:29You're supposed to be a more responsible spouse.
24:33Aren't you getting into this marriage role just a little too much?
24:36For your information, while you were out playing doctor all day, I was busy investigating.
24:42There were people walking with their dogs.
24:45The dogs looked like a drug.
24:47So did the people for that matter.
24:49Really?
24:50There were workmen.
24:51There were supposed to be workmen.
24:53They weren't working.
24:54They were watching me.
24:56Why wouldn't they watch you?
24:57You're new here.
24:58You're pretty.
25:01You really think I'm pretty?
25:04Just get to the point, will you?
25:07There were milkmen.
25:08Delivering milkmen.
25:09Now, who delivers milk these days?
25:11Uh, milkmen.
25:13Okay, how about this one?
25:14I asked the cable repairman to come check my reception.
25:18He came without an appointment.
25:20Now, that is strange.
25:23Did you run those prints?
25:26Yeah, we ran a prints.
25:28Well, are you going to tell me about it willingly and get over with, or am I going to have to
25:31piss her it out of you?
25:32Well, we don't have the whole story yet.
25:35And I'm sure there's a perfectly good explanation.
25:39But the fingerprints of every resident at that party last night belong to someone who was, uh,
25:45already deceased.
25:47Dead people?
25:48Let's not rush to judgment.
25:50Let's just get the facts.
25:51This is better than alien replicants.
25:54I've got to call my editor.
25:55No, you're not calling anyone.
25:57The story's too big to sit on.
25:58You don't have a story, unless you're going to make one up.
26:01We're talking dead people.
26:03I'm not letting you run into this room until you promise me you're not going to call anyone.
26:08I just don't want to get scooped.
26:10You won't.
26:11Whatever this place is hiding, they've been doing it for a long time, and they'll do anything
26:15to protect it.
26:16We have to be careful.
26:19Now, promise me.
26:23Okay, I promise.
26:26I'm just a comment report to remember.
26:27I trust you.
26:31I'll change in a light bulb.
26:58He's dead.
27:26It's a room.
27:28The cause of death looks accidental.
27:32Mr. Harris broke his neck the moment he fell.
27:35There's nothing anybody could have done for him.
27:37I wonder.
27:39You think the alien weapon can score him?
27:44I think your wife needs you.
27:53Are you okay?
27:53I'm tired.
27:55I'm tired.
27:58This one looks upset.
28:00I've seen enough death for one lifetime.
28:04Take me home.
28:05Where are you going?
28:29To sleep on the couch again.
28:33Remember?
28:35Don't, please.
28:37After everything that happened today, I really don't want to be alone.
28:42Would you mind staying up here tonight?
28:44Not at all.
28:48Honey.
28:54But I'm not ready to have you back in my bed yet.
28:58It's all right.
29:02I'll, uh, sleep in the recliner.
29:07Let's just, uh, try and get some sleep, okay?
29:10Always loved recliners.
29:27Good night, honey.
29:38Good night, darling.
29:43Good night, darling.
29:43Good night, darling.
29:47Good night, darling.
29:48Good night, darling.
29:49Good night, darling.
29:50Good night, darling.
29:51Good night, darling.
29:52Good night, darling.
29:53Good night, darling.
29:54Good night, darling.
29:55Good night, darling.
29:56Good night, darling.
29:57Good night, darling.
29:58Good night, darling.
29:59Good night, darling.
30:00Good night, darling.
30:01Good night, darling.
30:02Good night, darling.
30:03Good night, darling.
30:04Good night, darling.
30:05Good night, darling.
30:06Good night, darling.
30:07Good night, darling.
30:08Good night, darling.
30:09Good night, darling.
30:10Good night, darling.
30:11Good night, darling.
30:12Good night, darling.
30:13Good night, darling.
30:14Good night, darling.
30:15Thanks.
30:45I gotta go, but, uh, do me a favor, will ya?
30:49Stay out of trouble.
30:51I'm a waltz around the neighborhood.
30:55What's a new day?
30:56Something terrible is going on in this neighborhood, or I intend to find out what?
31:00This is a murder investigation.
31:03I don't want to come back here and find out who you're the latest victim.
31:07It won't be.
31:09I promise.
31:11I mean it, Shelby.
31:12I know you don't.
31:33Charles Harris had a contusion on his forehead undoubtedly caused by the fall from the latter.
31:39He also had a badly twisted ankle from the same fall.
31:42But what killed him was a broken neck, plain and simple.
31:46I couldn't find anything else.
31:48I looked.
31:49Trust me.
31:50I just don't buy this as an accident.
31:53The guy that threatened me at the party just happens to die in his own house changing a light bulb.
31:58You found cases of Synthroid in Harris' system.
32:01Nothing significant, just a therapeutic dosage.
32:04What's Synthroid?
32:05It's a thyroid replacement drug.
32:07Well, didn't you say Paul Foster had an enlarged thyroid?
32:09Yes, but he died from gunshot wounds, not thyroid disease.
32:13Yeah, but I still think we ought to do a few more tests to find out what else our two bodies have in common.
32:18All right, this is a partial gene sequence on both men, but the number of correlations is no fluke.
32:27What's the percentage?
32:28You tell me.
32:30I'll highlight them.
32:31Three out of four.
32:36What's it mean?
32:39Well, if a man were to run a test on you and me, we'd match up about 50% of the time.
32:44Because I'm your father, I contributed 50% of your genetic material.
32:49Your mother contributed the other half.
32:51So there's only one way that two people can match up 75% of the time.
32:55They were brothers.
32:58And they kept that a secret, even though they lived across the street from each other?
33:02Why?
33:03What the hell is going on?
33:05I don't know.
33:07It certainly puts a different spin on Harris' threat.
33:10You know, he knew you were an imposter.
33:13You probably thought you had something to do with Paul's death.
33:15He was terrified of you.
33:17Did Shelby ever explain why Paul Foster contacted her, of all people?
33:22Well, I assume it's because she was the only person that would listen to a story about alien replicants.
33:28A wonder.
33:28A wonder.
33:28A wonder.
35:20Well, she said he called from Hill Ridge Estates.
35:23I think she knew it long before he ever arrived at Hill Ridge.
35:27You're kidding.
35:29Look at this.
35:30Just after the article on the rat people living in the sewers of New York, there's a genuine piece of journalism right there.
35:37About the bigger staff crime family in Miami she mentioned.
35:41This was written seven months ago, four days before a big bus took that family down.
35:48Now, the dog father family goes on trial this week in Miami.
35:52So you think Foster was the unnamed source that she mentions in the article?
35:56I think when he found himself in trouble, he called the one person you don't have to trust.
36:01Well, a kind of troll.
36:03And don't say alien replicants.
36:06But in this Miami newspaper, the four principal witnesses in the bigger staff case have been put under protective custody.
36:12And all the residents at the Hill Ridge Estates have assumed names.
36:18And all the fingerprints match up with dead people.
36:20Are tax dollars that work?
36:21Uh-huh.
36:21Except, out of the four protected witnesses, three are dead.
36:25Well, our tax dollars don't work that well.
36:27Well, at least we know how the three victims are connected and why they were killed.
36:31Well, we don't know who the fourth witness is and we don't know who's trying to kill us.
36:36Headed back to Hill Ridge.
36:37Yeah, I think it's time to find out what's really going on.
36:50Hello, Dr. Foster.
36:51Hey, Phil.
36:52Can you hit the gate for me?
36:55I can't believe in the field.
36:57Uh, it was a geranium twasman.
37:01I was supposed to plant Narcissus.
37:09Kevin Steve Sloan.
37:11LAPD.
37:13Want to talk to the man in the shark?
37:15That's good, because he wants to talk to you.
37:20We already know who you are, Lieutenant.
37:23Well, thanks for your willingness to share.
37:25Oh, and thanks for the soda.
37:28It's a well-stocked kitchen you've got here.
37:31Now it's your turn for the ID.
37:33And not to one of those Clifton Maloney.
37:36Your real ID, your FBI vets.
37:39Who said anything about FBI?
37:41Unless you guys have turned the witness protection program over to the Forest Service.
37:46You're FBI.
37:46I assume you've increased security on the fourth witness in the bigger staff trial.
37:58Well, that's very good, Lieutenant.
38:00But since you're fishing for his name, I'll just cross you off the list of potential assassins.
38:04I appreciate that.
38:06What I don't appreciate is you keeping it secret from the local authorities.
38:11Specifically me.
38:12It's federal jurisdiction.
38:13Dead bodies keep turning up in my jurisdiction.
38:16Oh, I suppose that justifies you coming in here undercover and potentially blowing the entire thing.
38:21Oh, no, you guys are doing a great job of that all by yourselves.
38:24Three dead witnesses out of four.
38:27You ever consider it might be an inside job?
38:29Now, wait a minute.
38:30It seems to me you could use some help from some objective.
38:33Like the LAPD.
38:35Okay.
38:36You want in?
38:38You find out what your lady friend was doing here the night Paul Foster was killed.
38:45See, our perimeter surveillance cameras caught her on film.
38:49She lured him to the north fence.
38:51He was shot on his way there.
38:53Those shots came from behind.
38:55She couldn't have done it.
38:57No, but she's obviously involved, so she wouldn't have been there at all.
39:00She's probably involved in two other murders as well.
39:03Well, we just can't get her to tell us how.
39:06Where is she?
39:07She's here.
39:09She's fine.
39:10She better be.
39:12Get her.
39:17You know, you really should have brought me in on this earlier.
39:20Took us a while to check you out, Lieutenant.
39:23And then we were hoping she was going to slip up and tell you something.
39:26And all you got was the sound of running water.
39:29She's a very attractive woman.
39:31You got enough to charge her?
39:34Not yet.
39:35But we will.
39:37Steve.
39:39Thank God.
39:44You all right?
39:46Yeah.
39:48Good.
39:49Shelby Turner, I'm placing you under arrest.
39:52You have the right to remain silent.
39:54What?
39:54What do you think you're doing, Lieutenant?
39:57I'm arresting her for interfering with the police investigation.
40:00You can't do that.
40:01Will you prefer I take her in as a material witness in a homicide?
40:04I prefer you leave her here.
40:06I've got legitimate charges I can bring against her.
40:08You don't.
40:09As soon as you do, let me know.
40:11I'll return her to your custody.
40:12In the meantime, she's my prisoner and she's going to my jail.
40:15You're interfering with the federal investigation, Lieutenant Sloan.
40:23Under the circumstances, it's my sworn duty to interfere.
40:27You can't keep your own witnesses alive.
40:31This isn't over.
40:33Got that right.
40:34As soon as he uncuffs me, I'm going to strangle him.
40:41Keys.
40:41Give him the keys.
40:53If you take me to jail, I'll kill you.
40:55I swear it.
40:57But tell me you don't believe him.
40:59You make it kind of hard when you keep threatening to kill him.
41:11You make it kind of hard when you keep threatening to kill him.
41:23You've been playing this sullen cop for 45 minutes.
41:26Are you going to uncuff me and we can talk about this or not?
41:30I really should arrest you, you know.
41:32I didn't kill Paul Foster.
41:36I know.
41:37Well, then why are you pulling this, it's my sworn duty thing on Maloney?
41:43Because I can't leave you with someone who might have already killed three people.
41:47Now, tell me about Paul Foster and this time tell me everything.
41:51He was my source inside the bigger staff crime family.
41:55Seven months later, he calls me up and he tells me he's got this even bigger story.
42:01His life is in danger.
42:02And he needs me to help him survive.
42:06So he arranged for you to meet him outside the Hill Ridge Estates that night.
42:10I didn't lure him to his death.
42:12I didn't have anything to do with any of it.
42:15You believe me, don't you?
42:17You make it difficult.
42:21I know.
42:22I mean, really difficult.
42:25I know.
42:26I know.
42:32I can't believe this.
42:35But that you're falling for the scum of the earth.
42:38No.
42:41I can't believe I'm falling for someone who would call me the scum of the earth.
42:46I never said that.
42:48Are you sure?
42:49Absolutely.
42:51Well, then...
42:53You know, I really believe in spontaneous human combustion.
43:07Let me show you how it works.
43:13Oh.
43:14I see you're still on the Hill Ridge Estates case.
43:19You know, he's not really a doctor.
43:21So let's do the tent.
43:40So then, I opened up the back of the phone truck.
43:43And I see all this equipment inside.
43:46Miniature cameras.
43:47Parabolic microphones.
43:50Even ammunition.
43:51All of a sudden, a couple of guys grabbed me and they tossed me inside.
43:56The truck was parked in front of the Wolverton house, wasn't it?
43:59How'd you know?
44:00Just a guess, because at your dinner party, Kathleen Wolverton said they're all clammy.
44:05Where the bigger staffs operated.
44:09Nice guess.
44:10You want to drive with the Comet?
44:12No, thanks.
44:12So we know that Frank Wolverton was the fourth witness, but we're still no closer to finding
44:18the killer.
44:19I think the FBI is behind it all.
44:23I think this is a conspiracy that reaches to the highest levels of our federal government.
44:28Sorry.
44:36Sometimes I can't help myself.
44:39Did you see Frank Wolverton at all the day?
44:42No, I did see his wife, though.
44:44She said he was hiding while the workmen buffed running hardwood floors.
44:47She's obsessed.
44:51More than that.
44:55You noticed what you thought you noticed.
45:00Amanda?
45:02I'd like you to do a rechecking on autopsy for me.
45:05I'm giving her back.
45:12I already called Maloney.
45:13He knows what's coming.
45:16Boy, the wolves really have a nice place.
45:20She's not in handcuffs.
45:22When I changed my mind about arresting her, I decided to start dating her instead.
45:30Well, Mrs. Wolverton, you were absolutely right to redecorate places with me.
45:35Thank you, Dr. Sloan.
45:36Tiffany, do I have to just love them?
45:40And a Persian rug?
45:42Oh, much more attractive than shag.
45:44You stop by for the home and garden tour?
45:47I agree.
45:48Shag sheds, and it's hard to vacuum.
45:51Although, you know, Persian rugs will shed, too, especially if they're hand-tied like this one.
45:56I had the medical examiner recheck the autopsy report on that first murder victim.
46:01Sure enough, the same time he caught the fibers on his pants, but...
46:05Really?
46:07He must have been visiting the Atleys.
46:09I believe they have new rugs as well.
46:11And the hardware floors, they sure can make your house a home, can't they?
46:15That is, when the varnish dries.
46:18They do tend to stay tacky for a while.
46:21You know, even when the varnish sits, it still can be really sticky on your shoes.
46:26Yes, I guess.
46:28Mm-hmm.
46:28That's why we found tan bark from your lawn on the bottom of Paul Foster's shoes the night he was murdered.
46:35It stuck to the varnish that he had picked up from your new floors.
46:40Foster wasn't here the other night.
46:43At least, I didn't see it.
46:45Your wife did.
46:47He probably told her he was leaving here.
46:49He was scared that he could be the next victim.
46:52And your wife made sure he was.
46:54And forensics also found some varnished flecks on the entryway to Charles Harris' home.
47:00You sacked it in when you went there to kill him.
47:05I'm being set up.
47:10Frank, I'm listening to him, please.
47:14Kathleen, what have you done?
47:17She used to design her touching all three of the other witnesses.
47:21That's what she did.
47:22And you were next.
47:23I don't understand.
47:26Of course you don't.
47:29I wanted my life back.
47:31Couldn't stand to live here for another day.
47:34When I found out about the amount of money the bigger stocks were offering for witnesses,
47:39I couldn't pass it up.
47:42That says you're a back shot.
47:45Skeet.
47:45Of the back of daddy's yacht.
47:48I thought you loved me.
47:53I loved you in Miami.
47:56I didn't love you in California.
47:59This isn't home, Frank.
48:00No matter how much for decorating I did, it would never be home.
48:04You would trade my life for a house in Miami.
48:09The right house.
48:18Put her in handcuffs.
48:19How'd you figure this one out?
48:23Good forensics.
48:24Logical deductions.
48:26One very big kiss.
48:28I'm just going to make a great story.
48:33You know what's so cool about it?
48:35What's that?
48:37There aren't any mutants in it.
48:39I thought you loved mutants.
48:41It's not a job requirement for working at the Comet.
48:44I think I might sit on this story for a week or two.
48:48What do you think about that?
48:49Why would you do that?
48:53Give the FBI a chance to relocate some of its witnesses.
48:57Well, how about that?
48:59A reporter with integrity.
49:02How about that?
49:04A cop with attitude.
49:06I left my makeup in the bathroom.
49:12I'll be right back.
49:14Then we can stop playing Dr. and Mrs. Foster.
49:19Yeah, I guess we can.
49:36There's, uh, no one listening anymore, you know?
49:54I know.
49:55I don't know.
50:08I don't know.
50:09I don't know.
