00:00Previously on The Rookie.
00:02You're back.
00:03Another crazy story.
00:04How could I stay away?
00:05It's gonna take long because, uh, we got work to do.
00:08I heard you were happy with how the last documentary came out.
00:10Oh, my God.
00:11It was so good.
00:12And, and...
00:13And I got so many compliments.
00:16Oh, that's great.
00:17How about you?
00:19Didn't see it.
00:21We found four kilos of black tar heroin inside.
00:24What?
00:26Yo, that's crazy.
00:27Um, that is disturbing.
00:36God, what is taking so long?
00:40Do I look okay?
00:41You look hot.
00:42Right?
00:42God, I mean, this lip balm, it's fire.
00:46So what are we doing here?
00:48Girl, you know what we're doing.
00:49I know.
00:50We're like, prosperity.
00:52I think it's posterity.
00:54Mm-mm.
00:55That don't sound right, girl.
00:56Okay, so, I'm waiting for Jake to get out of prison.
01:01Mm-hmm.
01:02He just did six months on a drug charge, and I found out today he's getting released early.
01:05Ooh, for good behavior.
01:07Girl, overcrowding.
01:09Oh, my God!
01:11Oh, my God!
01:13Mm.
01:15Baby.
01:16Oh, I missed you.
01:17Yeah, I missed you, too.
01:19Yo, Lisa!
01:20Yeah!
01:20What's up?
01:22How are you doing?
01:23I'm good.
01:24How are you?
01:24All right, all right.
01:25What do you want to do first?
01:26You know what I want to do first.
01:28No, after that.
01:29You know, you said you've been thinking in prison.
01:31Are we going straight or what?
01:33Nah, screw that.
01:34Let's be bad.
01:36Yes.
01:38You ready?
01:39What?
01:41Ah!
01:41Oh, my God, stop!
01:43Whoa, whoa, whoa!
01:44Shut the door!
01:45Whoa!
01:45Shut the door!
01:46Whoa!
01:46Get off me!
01:49Get off me!
01:50This was an assassination.
01:52Baby, baby, look out, look out, look out!
02:08Sergeant.
02:09Hey, good morning.
02:11Good morning.
02:12How you been?
02:13Fine.
02:14I'm busy.
02:15Yeah?
02:16Yeah.
02:16Um, I'm sorry.
02:18I'm still a little unclear what your documentary is about this time.
02:22I mean, what are the odds that two cops would end up arresting two criminals who look just
02:25like them?
02:26Small.
02:28Infinitesimal.
02:28And this is going to be like a whole movie?
02:30I hope so.
02:31All I can do is start filming and see where it takes me.
02:34There she is.
02:35Hi.
02:35God, I'm a little nervous.
02:40Why?
02:40You're an old pro at this point.
02:42I know, but, you know, the other documentaries, they weren't about me.
02:48You're not interviewing me with Tim this time?
02:50No, I thought it would be valuable to hear from you separately.
02:53Okay.
02:54So, how did you first meet Jake Butler?
02:57A case.
02:58My roommate Tamara bought a car at a police auction only to find drugs hidden inside.
03:02So, we traced that back to Jake and arrested him.
03:06Which brings us to the elephant in the room.
03:09Right, yeah, the whole look-alike thing.
03:11It's...
03:12He really didn't look that much like me.
03:16How can you say that?
03:17You look almost identical.
03:20Says you.
03:21Says me.
03:22They could have been twins.
03:24Why do you think they called him Dim?
03:26Wait, what?
03:29Oh, yeah.
03:30We nicknamed Tim's doppelganger Dim.
03:33That's funny, but also a little prejudicial, don't you think?
03:36In what way?
03:38I mean, the fact that you were denigrating his intelligence comes to mind.
03:41I mean, if the shoe fits.
03:43Look, when you have been doing this job as long as I have,
03:46it becomes very clear that most criminals are, well, dim.
03:51No comment.
03:52Well, just because you're too nice, I would say a good 70% of the people we arrest couldn't
03:59explain how a revolving door works.
04:03Okay, maybe 30%.
04:04Yeah, anyway.
04:05The job is super stressful, and cops have a dark sense of humor, so a nickname was born.
04:11Wait.
04:11If you called Jake Dim, what did you call Sava?
04:15Hello?
04:16Juicy.
04:17Juicy.
04:18Juicy.
04:21Juicy.
04:23They called her Juicy.
04:25They?
04:25We did.
04:28We, I, I really tried not to, but it was a losing battle.
04:33And then you and Sergeant Bradford went undercover as your doppelgangers, Dim and Juicy.
04:37Yes.
04:38So, uh, Tim first, and then I joined him on a UC operation in Las Vegas where we put some
04:42very bad people behind bars.
04:44And was it around this time that you and Tim became intimate?
04:47No, no, no.
04:52We, we had to pretend at intimacy while we were undercover, but Tim and I were both in
04:56relationships at the time.
04:58We didn't start dating until after, you know, when, when we were both single again.
05:03I want to dial in on that.
05:04Do we have to?
05:05I, the odds of you and Tim coming face to face with Dim and Juicy are already astronomical,
05:11but for both couples to hook up.
05:13Interview's over.
05:14I need Chen.
05:15Oh, what's wrong?
05:17Not here.
05:17Excuse me.
05:20Yeah.
05:22It's okay.
05:28I don't know if the lady responded to a missing persons call.
05:31Who's Sava?
05:32Jake's missing.
05:33What?
05:39Oh.
05:41My boyfriend, Jake, he's missing.
05:42I, I, I can't find him.
05:45Hello, hello.
05:46Yeah, no, okay, yeah, uh, just.
05:47Slow down.
05:48Start at the beginning.
05:49Uh, uh, tell us what happened.
05:50Okay, uh, we were in the study.
05:52Uh, he was getting a beer, grabbing me my lobster salad, and, um, he just disappeared.
05:57I don't know where he went.
05:58Back up.
05:58Uh, what were Dim and Juicy doing at a Beverly Hills mansion?
06:01Have you seen the movie Parasite?
06:03Uh, after Dim got out of prison, he and Juicy started targeting rich people and celebrities,
06:08getting hired to work at their homes.
06:11Handymen, chefs, nannies.
06:13When you say celebrities,
06:15Lance Pass.
06:16I hired those two to take care of my house.
06:19Well, Jake first.
06:21Hey, guys.
06:22Uh, but then my sensualist quit, and, uh, Jake recommended Sava.
06:26I'm sorry, what's a sensualist?
06:29They optimize the pleasurability of your surroundings.
06:31Every element from the tactile to the olfactory.
06:34I have an incredibly stressful job, so I want every aspect of my home experience to be euphoric.
06:45More colorful.
06:46An alien would never dance like that.
06:50Uh, the mac and cheese.
06:53Sorry about that.
06:54No problem.
06:55So what happened after you hired them?
06:57I fired them.
06:58Why?
06:58During the three days they worked for me, they had sex on every surface of my house.
07:03By every, you mean every even vaguely flat surface.
07:07Floors, beds, couches, dressers, counters, the diving board.
07:12Even inside the dog crate.
07:14It was only after Dim and Juicy were gone that he discovered they'd also
07:18stolen several expensive watches and some jewelry.
07:22Were they arrested?
07:23No.
07:24By the time police questioned them, the stolen property was gone.
07:28Likely pawned, so there wasn't enough evidence to press charges.
07:31What we didn't know at that point was that Dim and Juicy were already casing out their next target.
07:38The Baudelaire's.
07:39Oh, baby, this place is perfect.
07:41Oh, no, it's on us.
07:43Ooh, right there.
07:44That's our in.
07:46Excuse me.
07:47You go back to that house, I'll shoot you in the face.
07:49Got it?
07:50Sent the guy packing, took his job.
07:57Well, they caught a break when Jake showed up to work on day one and discovered that the Baudelaire family had recently lost their nanny.
08:03So Juicy slid right in.
08:08What?
08:09That's just a really descriptive way to put that.
08:13How long did they work there before Dim went missing?
08:16Three weeks.
08:17And what can you tell me about the Baudelaires?
08:19They were made of money.
08:21And then he just disappeared.
08:22I don't know what happened to him.
08:25Karen, why is there a police car outside?
08:27Karen.
08:27I'm sorry, Mr. Baudelaire, but Skip is missing.
08:32Sorry, and by Skip, you mean Jake?
08:36Yes, yes.
08:38Skip and I, you know, we got pet names for each other.
08:40He calls me so I call him Jake.
08:42It's not...
08:42That's not even...
08:44Okay, hang on a second.
08:45I just...
08:45First of all, your name is Charles Baudelaire.
08:49And this is your house?
08:50Yes.
08:52I know, right?
08:53Oh, Meredith, you have to try this cleanse.
08:55Like, I have dropped an entire size.
08:56And I have to get all my clothes tailored now.
08:58But, oh, my God, the cops are here.
09:00Look at this.
09:01And this is my wife, Camille.
09:04Karen says that Skip is missing.
09:06How awful.
09:08God, did you hear that?
09:09Apparently now our handyman is missing.
09:11Okay, I need to unpack all of this.
09:14I think the fastest way to do it
09:16would be to get a statement from you first.
09:19Officer Juarez, will you please take the Baudelaires
09:21into the living room?
09:22Sure.
09:23Sir, ma'am, do you mind?
09:24I'm super confused, but okay.
09:26Okay, Meredith, I have to go.
09:27But, girl, you have to try this cleanse.
09:29I'm serious.
09:30Man, this is why it took so long to call you guys.
09:32Because you're doing something illegal.
09:33No.
09:34No.
09:35Jake and I, we have gone straight.
09:37I am working here as a nanny.
09:40And he is a handyman.
09:41Like I said, a lot to unpack.
09:43Let's stay on track.
09:44You said Jake disappeared.
09:46Mm-hmm.
09:46Hey.
09:47Hey.
09:48Hey, what time?
09:50What time they back?
09:52Like, three?
09:53Three.
09:54All right, remind me to clear that security footage, right?
09:56We don't want another mishap like that last Halloween situation.
09:59Yeah, that's true.
10:01Oh!
10:02I'm gonna get me another beer.
10:04You want anything?
10:05Yeah.
10:07Can you see if they got that lobster salad?
10:09Lobster salad?
10:10Yeah.
10:11Yeah, I'll get you a lobster salad.
10:12Don't you want?
10:12Lobster salad!
10:13All day.
10:14Lobster salad, like...
10:16You love it.
10:17Lobster salad.
10:17Okay, so Dim walked into the hallway at 2.03 p.m.
10:21But there are no cameras in that hallway.
10:23Right.
10:24So he walked out of this shot at 2.03.
10:26And never emerged from the hallway.
10:29We have hours more footage of those two rooms, but Dim never reappears.
10:33That's unusual, to say the least.
10:35Do you have a theory on what happened?
10:37No, but Juicy sure did.
10:39Okay.
10:40Alien abduction.
10:42Oh, yeah.
10:43Later she added, uh, portal to another dimension.
10:46But she didn't appreciate your suggestion.
10:49Spontaneous combustion.
10:51Oh.
10:52Like the Dromerson's final tab.
10:53Thank you for getting the reference.
10:55So we opened up an investigation.
10:57Most likely the explanation is just that there was a glitch in the security system.
11:01Right.
11:01But why wouldn't he tell Juicy where he was going?
11:04Relationships are complicated.
11:05However, every couple has their secrets, you know, no matter how strong their moral compasses
11:10may be.
11:11Mm.
11:13Which is something Jake and Sala clearly didn't have.
11:16Do Tim and I keep secrets from each other?
11:18I mean, nothing big.
11:21I feel that honesty is the most important thing in a relationship.
11:24I'm literally sitting in this office because of a secret she kept.
11:28Despite everything, it really did seem like Dim and Juicy loved each other.
11:33Which made what happened next so tragic.
11:357 Lincoln 7, code 6 at 9-1-1 call location.
11:40Any clarity on the smell they reported?
11:42That's a negative, 7 Lincoln 7.
11:47I mean, it's an alley in L.A.
11:49They all smell.
11:50It'd be a miracle if it didn't.
11:517 Lincoln 7, center already in my location.
12:18An alert, Sergeant Gray.
12:19I just found a body.
12:20It's Sergeant Tim Bradford.
12:24No, it's not.
12:26I'm at the station.
12:28It was Dim, obviously, but, you know, in the moment, I thought it was Tim.
12:33And, um, you know, anybody could have made that mistake.
12:36He's not wrong.
12:37They looked so much alike.
12:39My mind broke a little when I saw Dim's body.
12:42Barbie there?
12:43We responded to Aaron's call for an ambulance, but there was nothing we could do.
12:48Dim was way dead.
12:49Yeah, rigor mortis had come and gone.
12:51Blo-fi eggs had been laid.
12:52But Harris-Libbage hadn't started yet, which placed the time of death approximately 30 hours
12:57before Aaron found the body.
12:59So around 6 p.m., the day of Jake's disappearance.
13:02Did it bother you seeing his body?
13:04What do you mean?
13:06To see a version of yourself dead in a dumpster, no matter how much you protest, that you don't
13:10see the resemblance.
13:11I mean, it had to be a little disconcerting.
13:14A little, I guess.
13:16I have nightmares.
13:18Do you think Tim does?
13:19No.
13:21You know, he's been doing the job a lot longer than I have, so his walls are pretty high.
13:26But, you know, they have to be.
13:28Otherwise, the constant violence would just consume you.
13:31Sounds like a part of you is envious, that he can divorce himself from feeling a lot more
13:35easily.
13:36No.
13:37I...
13:38Listen.
13:39Empathy can be painful.
13:42But the alternative, at least for me, is unthinkable.
13:46I do this job to help people.
13:48You know, I have to feel for them.
13:49Do the walls make it hard to be in a relationship with Tim?
13:52No.
13:53But that's because I know behind those walls, he's just a big softie.
14:00Do I look like a big softie?
14:03No, sir.
14:04Officer Thorson found the body.
14:06Dem disappeared from the mansion at 2 or 3 p.m. and was killed four hours later.
14:10So we had new mysteries to solve.
14:12How did Dem get out of the house?
14:14Where was he for those missing four hours?
14:16And how did he end up shot dead in a dumpster?
14:19Unfortunately, there were no security cameras around the alley, so they have no idea who
14:24dumped the body.
14:25It was at this point that Detective Lopez and I were assigned to the investigation.
14:30Yes, we will thank you for coming in.
14:32Yes, sure.
14:33What's with all the cameras?
14:35They're filming a documentary.
14:36I would love to interview you at some point.
14:39Don't worry about them.
14:39Let's go talk.
14:41Uh, you want water, coffee, anything?
14:44No, thank you.
14:46Okay, this way.
14:47Go, go.
14:47Get ahead of them.
14:55Did you guys find anything?
14:56Uh, we're following up on a couple leads, but we need your help to get some clarity on
15:02some things.
15:03Do you mind if we report this?
15:05No, whatever you mean.
15:09How are you holding up?
15:10Yeah, I'm not going to lie.
15:15You know, I'm struggling.
15:17I still can't believe he's dead.
15:19Look, we know you, Mr. Butler, were engaged in a host of illegal activities, but we're not
15:25focused on that right now.
15:26Yeah, all we care about is catching the person who killed him.
15:29So if you are holding back because you're afraid that you're going to get in trouble,
15:33stop.
15:34You need to come clean.
15:35Hey, sorry to intrude.
15:39Uh, did you get a second?
15:40Uh, yeah, excuse us.
15:48What's up?
15:49They found another body.
15:54In the days following Dem's disappearance, officers were searching the property looking
15:58for him.
15:59In the confusion after finding Dem's body, the call to stop the search wasn't made.
16:04Whose body did they find?
16:12Holy s**t.
16:14It's about a there's nanny, Holland Poe.
16:17What?
16:17I thought she was out of the picture before Sava and Jake showed up.
16:22Maybe they popped her before Dem beat up the handyman.
16:25Well, the nanny's been dead over a month.
16:27The handyman got beat up three weeks ago.
16:29Why kill her and then wait to strong arm him?
16:32Let's go ask her.
16:33Tell me about Holland Poe.
16:42Who's that?
16:43The Baudelaire's nanny.
16:44Before you.
16:46Oh, I mean, I never met her.
16:48She was gone before we even knew about the Baudelaire's.
16:51Can you prove that?
16:52Turns out she could.
16:54Yeah.
16:55Tim and Juicy were actually on vacation in the Caribbean at the time of the nanny's murder.
16:58Paid for by the sale of the property they stole from Lance Bass.
17:01Which turned our attention to the most obvious suspects.
17:06The Baudelaire's.
17:08Sorry.
17:08No, you can say.
17:09No, I just thought I had some momentum I was building up and kind of jumped in there.
17:12That's all right.
17:13Sorry.
17:18It's uncanny.
17:19It's freaky is what it is.
17:21You look like twins.
17:23Okay, let's get back on track here.
17:25You say that Holland did not show up for work that Tuesday.
17:28And you never heard from her?
17:29That's right.
17:30No call, no text, no email, no Snapchat, no Clip Talk.
17:34We get it.
17:35And you were never aware that she went missing?
17:37No, we were paying her under the table, so I guess no one knew to contact us.
17:41We have our lawyer here.
17:42That's up to you.
17:43But then it becomes a whole thing.
17:44Yeah, right now we are just trying to get some clarity.
17:46It can't be a coincidence that two people that work for you showed up murdered.
17:51You're looking at the wrong people.
17:52I mean, we were scammed by Karen and Skip, Jake and Sava, whatever their real names are,
17:57we're the real victims here.
17:58Of course, but without another suspect, you can see why we are talking to you.
18:03Jesse.
18:05Who's Jesse?
18:06So, Mr. Long, you worked for the Baudeliers as a contractor for three years.
18:12That's right.
18:13What exactly did you do for them?
18:16I'm sorry, I can't say.
18:18I signed an NDA.
18:20I don't want to get sued.
18:21Getting sued is the least of your problems right now.
18:24Let's just say that I handled everything from repairs to new construction.
18:29What can you tell me about Helen Poe?
18:32What do you want to know?
18:35I mean, she works as a nanny while I did some repairs on the house.
18:40Nice girl.
18:41Did you two get along?
18:44Yeah.
18:44I mean, I didn't see her much.
18:46You know, you stopped working for the Baudeliers less than a week after she disappeared.
18:51Got a better gig.
18:52We found Holland's body hidden in the greenhouse yesterday.
18:56That's horrible.
18:59Before that, we found the handyman.
19:00Murder.
19:02Leah?
19:03No, Jake.
19:04Um, Skip.
19:06I don't know who that is.
19:09Look, I'm going to put our cards on the table.
19:12We got a warrant for Holland's cell phone records.
19:15We have dozens of texts from you harassing her, threatening her.
19:20And the Emmy found your DNA under her fingernails.
19:25We are going to arrest you for murder.
19:27I'm so sorry.
19:41I didn't, I didn't, uh, I didn't mean to kill her.
19:45It just, it all got out of hand.
19:47I understand.
19:50But the best way to honor her memory is to come clean.
19:54Tell us everything that happened.
19:55Okay.
19:59Including what you did to Jake.
20:00I told you, I don't know that guy.
20:03I swear.
20:05You said he was murdered?
20:07Yes, after he vanished into thin air at the Baudeliers' mansion.
20:11Did you check the...
20:13Check the what?
20:19Hey, guys.
20:20Wait, hold up.
20:25What do you got?
20:37Let's check it out.
20:38Be careful.
20:44Hey, stay back.
20:45Weird tunnel.
20:59Whoa.
21:00What is this?
21:03It's dusty.
21:08Oof.
21:08What is it?
21:12No way.
21:13Greg.
21:14Oh.
21:17What is it?
21:19Uh.
21:23You gotta be kidding.
21:26Oh, my God.
21:28It looks just like you.
21:29It's called the Lost Emperor.
21:35Ferdinand had it for a while, but it went missing after World War I.
21:40Rumor has it that Hitler had it for a short stint, but it got looted from the Führerbunker.
21:46We believe it depicts the Haitian Revolution's Battle of the Vertiaire, when the Haitian rebels defeated the French in November 1803.
21:55The painting is one of the generals, Gabard, Capoy, possibly even the great liberator, Jean-Jacques Dessalines, I think George Washington.
22:08They say certain traits are genetic, leadership, strength, the ability to inspire people.
22:16So, I'm not aware of any connection between Dessalines and my family, but, uh, I wouldn't be surprised.
22:26Why are you smiling?
22:28No reason.
22:28I just, your reaction to the painting has been pretty priceless.
22:32Go back to work.
22:52Harlequin's head by Picasso.
22:57Stalin's Bible, Charles Manson's jockstrap.
22:59What is all this stuff?
23:01Stolen art, uh, antiques, and cursed curiosities, all bought on the black market by Charles and Camille.
23:10Yeah, they were all worth a fortune.
23:11Which would explain why they didn't tell us about the hidden vault.
23:14But the most valuable thing we found in that moment...
23:17I got something.
23:19...was the hatch.
23:20And that's how Dim got out of the house.
23:31The ladder led up to a hidden grate in the bushes.
23:34And from there was a clear path with no cameras to get off the property.
23:37But one question remained.
23:39Where did Dim go?
23:41And who killed him?
23:43Look alive, guys.
23:43Here she comes.
23:45Thanks for meeting me.
23:49Thanks for meeting me.
23:50Of course.
23:54And you're okay with the cameras?
23:57Oh, God.
23:58I guess.
23:59Um, I'm a little confused as to why you're coming to me and not the police.
24:05I don't trust them.
24:07If I showed them this, they would find some way to use it against me.
24:11I'm not so sure about that, but I'm happy to take a look.
24:14What exactly are you going to show me?
24:17It's a video.
24:17Two days before Jacob went missing, um, somebody tried to kill us.
24:25You okay?
24:26I love you, bro.
24:28I love you, baby.
24:29No, but baby, you've got to say it to the camera.
24:31I'm driving, baby.
24:32Baby.
24:33All right, I'm talking to you.
24:34I love you, baby.
24:38Hey, what the hell was that?
24:40Oh, babe, babe, watch out.
24:42What the...
24:43Oh, God!
24:45Oh!
24:45Oh, God.
24:53Baby.
24:54Yeah?
24:54We got us to go.
24:55Okay.
24:56Baby, we got to go now.
24:57Okay, okay, okay.
24:57Oh!
25:02They didn't report it.
25:03They just abandoned it.
25:04Well, we tracked down the abandoned car, but the paint scrapings that we took from the impact point
25:09showed the most common brand of automotive paint.
25:13Which means we had added another mystery to the case.
25:16Who was the driver?
25:18But that question took a back seat.
25:20Oh, because the text came.
25:22You have to show this to the police.
25:24Oh, jeez.
25:36Stay with her.
25:39What's up?
25:40A text was sent from an unknown number to Dim and Juicy, demanding the item that had
25:46been promised.
25:46And the text went on to threaten violence if Juicy didn't turn the item over.
25:50It seemed likely that whomever sent that text killed Dim, so it was time for me to go undercover.
25:56You had no idea what you were walking into.
26:05That's working undercover.
26:06Doesn't that scare you, walking in by yourself?
26:08But I wasn't by myself.
26:15You see us in play.
26:16Adds up, this could be our guy.
26:37Okay.
26:37Okay.
26:46Do you have it?
27:10Nope.
27:13What do you mean, no?
27:13Whatever you were into with Jake, he didn't share it with me.
27:18I got no idea who you are or what you want.
27:21And now Jake is dead.
27:26That's all my problem.
27:28I need what he promised.
27:31Are you going to learn what battery acid tastes like?
27:35Is that what you said to Jake before you killed him?
27:39Enough.
27:41You're coming with me.
27:42Good.
27:42Move in.
27:43Get on the ground.
27:47Drop the gun.
27:48Get on the ground right now.
27:49Police, don't move.
27:50Stay where you are.
27:51I got him on this side.
27:53Are you getting an order?
27:54Hey, hey, hey.
27:56Stay where you are.
27:57Everybody freeze.
27:58Whoa, whoa, whoa.
27:59Drop your weapon.
27:59This is a target.
28:00Right there.
28:00Drop the gun.
28:01Whoa, whoa, where?
28:02LAPD.
28:03Who the hell are you guys?
28:04CIA.
28:05Thanks for taking the time to speak with me.
28:12My pleasure.
28:13The agency is committed to transparency wherever possible.
28:16Great.
28:17So what can you tell me about Amir Sadiq?
28:18Nothing.
28:20Come on.
28:21It's common knowledge that Mr. Sadiq is a Turkish national who works for Meyer Balik, an infamous international arms dealer.
28:27I'm not prepared to speak on that.
28:28Okay.
28:29Can you explain the connection to Jake Butler?
28:31I'm not prepared to speak on that.
28:34How about the mystery item that Amir was so intent on getting from Mr. Butler and Ms. Wu?
28:38I'm not prepared to speak on that.
28:40Then why did you agree to the interview?
28:42The agency is committed to transparency wherever possible.
28:45It turns out, Dem and that arms dealer...
28:52Meyer Balik?
28:54Yeah.
28:54That's the guy.
28:56Dem and Meyer were distant cousins.
28:59I found out through a back channel source at the DOD that the agency had been surveilling
29:04Amir for months now, while he and Meyer were working on a massive arms deal for the Iranians.
29:11But during the deal-making process, Amir went to Barbados.
29:14Where he met with Dem.
29:15But not Juicy.
29:17That's what she says.
29:20How are you holding up?
29:23I'm heartbroken.
29:25I thought I knew him.
29:27I thought he loved me.
29:29To find out he had this whole other life, I mean...
29:31I've been drunk the whole week.
29:35So you had no idea that the Baudelaire's weren't just a random target?
29:41Jake just said they were crazy rich and that we'd be able to potty for a year off of what we'd get out of the house.
29:48Well, what we now know is that Amir pointed Jake at the Baudelaire's.
29:52But it wasn't connected to the Iranian arms deal that the CIA was so keen to stop.
29:56It turns out among the stolen antiquities in the Baudelaire's vault was a very special rifle.
30:01The Mikulet, one of the earliest and most sturdy flintlocks ever made.
30:07And the most famous Mikulet belonged to the Turkish Sultan Osman II, or Osman the Young.
30:13I like to read.
30:15You sure do.
30:17But history lesson aside, as a proud Turk and a professional weapon aficionado,
30:22Amir Balak had been hunting for the Sultan's rifle for decades.
30:26And somehow, he discovered that the Baudelaire's had it.
30:30So he called up Cousin Jake and set up a meeting with Amir in Barbados.
30:35I was probably getting a massage at the time, or a facial, or a seaweed wrap, or a body scrub.
30:53I spent most of that trip just getting pampered, you know?
30:56Yeah, once we learned about the rifle's existence, we quickly found the crate it had been stored in.
31:14But the rifle was gone, which meant that Dim had taken it before he had snuck out of the Baudelaire's house.
31:19But he hadn't delivered it to Amir.
31:23No, Amir hadn't even landed in the U.S. by the time Dim was killed.
31:26Which means Dim took it somewhere else.
31:29Yeah, the question was, where?
31:31To whom?
31:32Whom?
31:32Yeah, and what happened to it?
31:34You were about to find all that out, though, weren't you?
31:36Yes, in the most terrifying way.
31:40Drop the gun!
31:43Baby, baby, look out, look out!
31:44With Amir out of the picture as a suspect, we went back to the car crash.
31:52Somebody tried to run Jake and Sava off the road two days before Jake was killed.
31:57If it wasn't Amir, who was it?
32:00Well, we had previously gotten warrants for Jake's phone records,
32:04but Sava told us that Jake always carried a burner phone with him, and we didn't have that number.
32:09Until the incident with Amir.
32:11Exactly.
32:11Even though the CIA kept us from interrogating Amir, they did search Amir's cell phone records
32:16and came up with an anonymous number that we ultimately tracked back to Dim.
32:22Let's just say that there were several text messages sent to and from that phone that were very revealing.
32:30What do you mean?
32:31Jake was clearly cheating on Sava, and he was the Shakespeare of sexting.
32:39Would you read some of those texts for me?
32:41Yeah, you...
32:49No, I can't. I'm sorry.
32:50I can't say any of this on camera.
32:51My Nana's gonna watch this.
32:53You could...
32:53Yeah, sorry.
32:54Couldn't you read some of these texts to me?
32:56Are you kidding me?
32:57Put that away.
32:58No, you couldn't get Lucy to read them.
32:59What makes you think I'm gonna read them?
33:01I'm serious.
33:02Okay.
33:03I'm not reading them.
33:03Okay.
33:04Would you mind reading some of these texts out loud?
33:11Um...
33:12I can't say that.
33:14I'm not saying that.
33:16I have no idea what that even means.
33:18Let me just find some PG content for you.
33:20Oh, here we go.
33:22Stop calling.
33:23I told you it's over.
33:24The breakup texts.
33:27It was the, uh, proverbial smoke and gun.
33:30The text that would determine Dim's fate.
33:33And just for clarity, who was Dim sending these texts to?
33:37Who was he having an affair with?
33:39Lisa Miller?
33:41Lisa Miller?
33:42That's Juicy's BFF.
33:43So what are we doing here?
33:45Girl, you know what we're doing.
33:46I know.
33:47We're like, prosperity.
33:50I think it's posterity.
33:52Mm-mm.
33:52That don't sound right, girl.
33:54Okay, so...
33:56I'm waiting for Jake to get out of prison.
33:59Mm-hmm.
33:59He just did six months on a drug charge,
34:01and I found out today he's getting released early.
34:03Oop, a good behavior.
34:04Girl, overcrowding.
34:08Oh, baby!
34:09Baby, oh, I missed you.
34:16Yeah, I missed you, too.
34:18Yo, Lisa!
34:19What's up?
34:21At that point, it all started coming together.
34:24Lisa couldn't handle the fact that Jake was breaking up with her,
34:27so she tried to run them off the road.
34:30And when that failed, she called up Jake,
34:32begged for his forgiveness, and asked him to meet her.
34:35Yeah, when he showed up,
34:36she shot him with a .22-caliber pistol,
34:39then dumped his body in the dumpster.
34:41So we went to arrest her.
34:44I think that's her.
35:04Police!
35:05Show me your hands!
35:06Move in on her! Move in!
35:08Whoa, whoa, drop the gun!
35:09Whoa, whoa, drop the gun!
35:10Whoa, whoa, drop the gun!
35:13Whoa, whoa, whoa, drop the gun!
35:13Get in there.
35:16Officer, down.
35:17We need an R.A.
35:18Flower and Lincoln.
35:20Done.
35:22Oh, my goodness.
35:27Roll me back. Roll me back.
35:31Catch, my breath.
35:33I'm good.
35:36The thing about old guns is that they're very imprecise weapons and the muzzle velocity was significantly less than even the most modern, smallest handgun.
35:46Translation, there is no way that the McClay bullet could have punched a hole in no one's bulletproof vest.
35:51He's just lucky she didn't shoot him in the face.
35:54Uh, not getting shot in the face. That's a daily goal.
35:56Yeah, that's true. The first thing he taught me was, don't get shot in the face.
36:00All things considered, though, I do. I got very lucky. Yeah. It could have been so much worse.
36:05Yeah, like it was for Sergeant Gray.
36:08He's probably not gonna love what you said.
36:11This painting captures a moment in world history where freedom won out over oppression, which is why its recovery is so important.
36:20It is my honor to present The Lost Emperor.
36:23You son of a bitch.
36:40Shame on you. Shame on you.
36:46Bollares are people, too.
36:49this was an assassination I'm sorry I need a minute I just please I still have
37:00this
37:06sorry sergeant you're needed in the bullpen the hell is this about
37:19what do we have here well we all know how much you love that painting
37:25well unfortunately it was completely destroyed so we had another painting
37:30it reflects the way that we see you with my shirt off as a dragon slayer
37:44well so Lisa was going to prison for the murder of Jake and the attempted murder of Nolan but we
38:02were left with the question of what to do with juicy at the end of the day it didn't make sense
38:06to charge her we could prove dims involvement but all we really hit on juicy was conspiracy
38:12these office debated for a while but ultimately we decided to cut her loose how did you feel about
38:18that on the whole good whatever her faults juicy Sava had suffered a great tragedy betrayal murder
38:32I'm hopeful that she'll take this opportunity to learn from the experience you know the change
38:40of course she said that listen people never change okay Sava is going to end up in cuffs one way or another
38:48you make good money doing documentaries I do okay you do better than okay
39:01I looked you I looked you up you're not the only curious one around here
39:05award-winning filmmaker
39:08vacation home on the Amalfi coast I mean
39:13Karen what
39:15you gotta go
39:17you're parasiting again
39:19girls gotta eat
39:21uh give him my number give him my number you call me okay
39:24does it shake you at all the fact that your doppelgangers relationship was so dysfunctional
39:31that's an unfair characterization it wasn't dysfunctional I mean Jake cheated with Sava's
39:39best friend after trying to cut her out of a big money deal fair enough but that doesn't change the
39:44question what are you implying that we might suffer the same fate because of a couple of people
39:50who looked a tiny bit like us they were misfits I think it's a reasonable question
39:55you're working too hard okay I get it all right you're invested in a certain answer because it makes
40:03for a better documentary but we are not Jake and Sava okay I mean they are criminals whose lives
40:11were based on deceit of course that duplicity infected their relationship but
40:15we are in a very different place and what place is that
40:21if you don't know then you haven't been paying attention I mean
40:26okay so a place of honesty respect love yeah I mean those are those are good words but do those
40:34qualities guarantee the relationship will succeed where theirs failed oh wait well you know of course
40:40not but at this moment I mean Tim and I are in a really beautiful place and that's all that
40:48matters yeah but the thing you learn early on as police officers is that your future is never
40:55certain yeah anything can happen to anyone at any time especially if they overstay their welcome
41:01oh oh oh does that mean yeah we're yeah we're done sorry that's right sorry guys
