00:01Okay, so what am I looking at here?
00:03The seeds that will blossom into the most kick-ass heist there's ever been.
00:07Because if we're going to get the diamond Gideon Varga wants, the plan needs to be meticulous.
00:12Okay, I know we only got this assignment yesterday, but do you actually think we can pull this off?
00:16It's insane and impossible, but we'll be murdered if we don't, so yes, we absolutely can.
00:20I admire your positivity.
00:21Which is lessening by the minute.
00:23I'm glad your dead mother is alive, but does she have to do that living in my kitchen?
00:27What's she doing? Whipping up a solution for 15 years of abandonment?
00:31Freaky!
00:32I understand that you're happy to have your mother back, but don't you think you're going a little easy on
00:36her?
00:36Of course! I'm angry at what she did.
00:39But it's my mom, and I have her back.
00:42So that's all I want to think about, that I have my mom back.
00:45Okay, be nice.
00:46Happy French Toast Friday!
00:49Oh my gosh, I forgot about French Toast Friday.
00:52They're shaped like little hearts.
00:54What is this alliterative breakfast event?
00:57Okay, so every Friday, no matter where we were, we would make French Toast.
01:00I would stir the batter, Mom and Dad would man the griddle.
01:03I love French Toast Friday.
01:05Speaking of which, I thought your father was coming.
01:09Something came up.
01:10Oh, like what?
01:11Resentment, anguish, the seething rage of betrayal.
01:13Ricky!
01:14Mom, he just needs more time.
01:16You know what? Totally understand.
01:18I was just hoping things would go back to normal.
01:21He'll come around.
01:23In the meantime, Ricky and I are very grateful that you and your French Toaster are back.
01:30Duty calls.
01:33Hey, Chief, what's up?
01:35Is that, uh, is that right, Ricky?
01:38Are you happy I'm back?
01:40Absolutely.
01:41You've taken millions of dollars from me and endangered my life.
01:44But bread soaked in egg and cinnamon makes it all worth it.
01:50You know, you do a lot more yelling when I'm the one making your breakfast.
01:53Well, I'm Mark's favorite.
01:54He trusts me.
01:57Mark, she's giving you tuna for breakfast.
01:58She's spoiling you.
01:59Well, I thought about bludgeoning a dock mouse for him.
02:01But tinned fish was less mess.
02:04Whoa, whoa, whoa.
02:05You're not gonna join us?
02:06I wish I could.
02:07I made myself a breakfast burrito to go.
02:09It's my first day back at the paper after Mexico.
02:11I still have to shower and change and brush my teeth.
02:14It works.
02:17Maybe I'll see you later.
02:27Chief Lee.
02:29Good morning.
02:30So what did Lou say this was?
02:31Someone dead in a warehouse?
02:33That's all I said, so I guess we'll just assess when we get there.
02:36Roger or Dodger?
02:41So, Jessica.
02:42She seems great.
02:44Yeah, she is.
02:46Listen, I'm sorry.
02:47I didn't bring her up earlier.
02:48I should have and I didn't and I'm sorry.
02:50I know that was a little bit awkward at the boat, but thank you for just being cool about that.
02:56No, it's fine.
02:57Don't even worry about it.
03:00So how did you two meet?
03:02When I first got down to Mexico, we were on the beach and I guess we ordered the same drink.
03:05So when the bartender put it down, we both reached for it at the same time.
03:09Oh, real life meet-cute.
03:12Yeah.
03:12We got to talking and figured out we had a lot in common.
03:15She's a journalist.
03:16She just finished this intense years-long investigation and I just...
03:22Solved Daniel's case.
03:24Yeah.
03:26We communicate really well.
03:27We get along great.
03:28And honestly, more than anything, it's just been really...
03:31easy.
03:32You know?
03:37Sorry, is this weird that we're talking about this?
03:39Because we do not need to talk about it at all.
03:41Why would it be weird?
03:43We're co-workers.
03:45And co-workers tell each other about their cool new girlfriend.
03:50Co-workers.
03:51Right.
03:56Looks like this is it.
04:03Detective Ellis?
04:04That's right.
04:05This is Max Mitchell, my consultant.
04:08I'm also really good at Parchuzzi, but he never mentions such people.
04:11You'll need these to get into the space.
04:14Follow me.
04:14Great. Thanks.
04:17Max, come on.
04:19It's too good to be true!
04:21What is?
04:22No, no. You don't understand.
04:23It's too good to be true.
04:25The boy band!
04:26Aren't they famous in, like, the 90s?
04:29Into the 2000s, but they're doing this worldwide comeback tour.
04:32Wait, um, is this where, uh, Too Good To Be True is rehearsing?
04:36Yeah.
04:37You're a fan, I take it?
04:39Okay, fan is an understatement.
04:40I knew every single move to their song, Our Love Is On The Line.
04:43My very first slow dance was to their song, Cuckoo Bananas, Girl You Drive Me Wild.
04:47This band was my childhood.
04:50Wait, wait, wait!
04:52Does this mean that one of the Too Good To Be True boys is dead?
04:54What if it's Rusty, the oldest one, or a drug relapse from Cody the Bad Boy?
04:58Between us, someone whispered something about, uh, Theo.
05:03Scan your badge here.
05:05Right.
05:05It can't be Theo, he's the hottest pop star there is!
05:10Bear with me.
05:16So hot, he burned to a crisp.
05:30Go for Rusty!
05:32Baby, I've been calling!
05:35Go for Cody!
05:36So tell me, are you falling?
05:39And Noah!
05:40Baby, I won't ever lose your number in this heart of mine!
05:45And Noah!
05:48And Noah!
05:50And Noah!
05:50And Noah!
05:50I was supposed to be Theo in that box.
05:55But it wasn't.
05:57Oh, thank God.
05:59Sorry, fangirl reaction.
06:01So who was killed?
06:03Buzz.
06:04Too Good To Be True's long-time tour manager.
06:06He's my mentor.
06:07Or, was.
06:09I can't believe this happened.
06:10What exactly is your role on the tour?
06:12I'm the assistant tour manager.
06:15Buzz was my boss.
06:16I've worked with him forever.
06:17He gave me my start.
06:19He was going to retire as soon as the boys got on the road.
06:21Finally relax.
06:23I don't know what we're going to do without him.
06:24What I'm going to do.
06:26What was Buzz doing on stage?
06:28We were about to do a tech run, but Theo got a call.
06:31Buzz didn't want to fall behind schedule, so he stepped in for him, of course.
06:34But it seems the smoke line into the prop phone booth got switched for a firelight.
06:39How does something like that even happen?
06:41You'll have to ask Pyro Poppy.
06:43Who?
06:45Poppy?
06:46Pyro Poppy.
06:47Pyro Poppy. Sorry.
06:48You do all the pyro techniques for the band, is that right?
06:51Yeah.
06:52So walk us through how something like this happens.
06:54Things like this don't happen to me.
06:55I installed those smoke lines myself and checked them 20 minutes before tech started.
06:59Now, were you in the rehearsal space in that 20 minutes before the tech run started?
07:03No, we were out back with the rest of the crew grabbing breakfast.
07:05They brought in a crepe truck for us.
07:08Buzz loved crepes.
07:09He was a real pal, you know?
07:10We started working together on that Too Good To Be True Tour boyfriend material.
07:15Classic album.
07:16Remember that tour, kid?
07:19This whole comeback is on your shoulders, but we're going to get through it together.
07:23Is there any way that those lines could have got mixed up by accident?
07:26No.
07:26No way.
07:27This was intentional.
07:28Wait, you're saying someone did this on purpose?
07:30Look.
07:31Wait, if that's the case and Theo was supposed to be in the box...
07:34Then Theo was likely the intended target.
07:36Where is he?
07:37He should be put under surveillance.
07:38He's with the rest of the band.
07:39We need to speak to them right now.
07:41Hey, honey.
07:42Okay, I got the biggest news.
07:43The biggest.
07:44Guess who I'm about to meet.
07:46Uh, Paul Lenka.
07:47What?
07:48No.
07:48David Beckham.
07:49No.
07:50Oh, that's too bad.
07:51Too Good To Be True.
07:53Oh, our favorite boy band?
07:56I know, isn't it amazing?
07:58I mean, I know it's for a murder investigation, but still, amazing.
08:02Oh, okay.
08:03I gotta go.
08:04I'll tell you more tonight.
08:06Who's that?
08:07My plumber.
08:08You know, pipes.
08:09Need maintenance.
08:11Okay.
08:12So, Axton, any thoughts on who might want to kill Theo?
08:16No clue.
08:17You never know.
08:18That's why we have our lanyard scanning system.
08:21Keep any crazy fans out.
08:23A boy band from the 90s still has crazy fans?
08:25Excuse me?
08:26Too Good To Be True is more than just a boy band, Ellis.
08:29They were the biggest group on the planet from 1996 to 2010.
08:32Think Beatlemania with Nokia phones and frosted tips.
08:36So what happened?
08:37One day they just became old news.
08:38The only one who walked away with a solo career was Theo.
08:40Okay, him I know.
08:41You?
08:42Knowing pop culture outside of Will documentaries?
08:44No, it's not by choice.
08:45I mean, you've seen news everywhere.
08:47I'm surprised he agreed to this tour.
08:49He was the only one holding out on the reunion.
08:51So, what changed?
08:53Well, he wanted to do the rest of the guys a solid.
08:55None of them had solo careers and they're family.
08:58Fun fact.
08:59Cody and Theo used to be neighbors growing up.
09:03So, this is the green room.
09:04The boys are in there.
09:05All right, we'll take it from here, Axton.
09:07That poster is their way too Y2K album cover.
09:11They're peak.
09:12So dreamy.
09:13Okay, Max, before we go inside, are you going to be able to keep it together on this one?
09:17I am nothing if not profesh.
09:29I am nothing if not profesh.
09:30You're here for Buzz?
09:31Yes.
09:31I'm Detective Ellis.
09:32This is Max Mitchell.
09:33I'm my consultant.
09:34I'm sorry for your loss, guys.
09:37Yeah.
09:37Poor Buzz.
09:38Life is so fleeting.
09:39It's like one menu you're doing a last minute audition for a Scorsese's new movie and then finding your tour
09:44manager's barbecue.
09:46I didn't even know it was going in for me.
09:48No, it was Buzz.
09:48It was always stepping up.
09:52Whoa, whoa, whoa.
09:55Where'd you go?
09:57You were here, now I don't know.
10:02Whoa, whoa, whoa.
10:05Where'd you go?
10:07My heart is shattered, now I'm feeling low.
10:15Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, we are not worthy.
10:20Max, what happened to profesh?
10:22I'm human, okay?
10:23That song was actually written for our producer's missing golden retriever, but it pertains.
10:28Okay, let's just focus here.
10:30Okay, gentlemen?
10:31I need your help with this investigation.
10:33Investigation?
10:34What do you mean?
10:35It was a horrible accident.
10:36It seems like one of the fire lines was intentionally switched and Theo was supposed to be in that box.
10:45You're saying someone tried to kill me?
10:47Given what we know, it's quite possible.
10:53You okay, man?
10:57It's just, my whole life is like flashing before my eyes right now.
11:03Why would anyone want to kill me?
11:05That's what we're trying to determine.
11:07Wait, where's Cody?
11:09The fourth member.
11:11I haven't seen him since this morning.
11:12He was really upset when he saw Buzz's body.
11:15He took off.
11:16Really?
11:17You don't think Cody did it, do you?
11:19We're investigating all possibilities.
11:26Okay, great, thank you.
11:27So as a general rule, let's just cool it on the breaking of the song, yeah?
11:32I appreciate your cooperation there, gentlemen.
11:34You got it, right?
11:35Yeah.
11:36Okay.
11:38Okay, let's not listen to Captain Buzzkill.
11:41One more time from the top.
11:45Would you rather eat a stink bug or make out with a llama,
11:49but with full-time?
11:51You know, I hate playing this game with you.
11:53Thank God.
11:55Alice, what's up?
11:56Simmons, I need you and Yates to track somebody down.
11:58He's a member of Too Good to Be True.
12:00That's, that's, uh, that, that boy band or something, right?
12:03Yeah, look, their tour manager, Buzz, was just murdered,
12:05but it looks like one of the band members was the real target.
12:07One of them just took off.
12:08Very suspicious.
12:09His name's Cody.
12:10Cody, huh.
12:12Uh, any, any leads where he might have went?
12:14He's been sober for ten years, but he's in and out of rehabs,
12:17and he's got a history of substance abuse.
12:18Yeah, copy that.
12:19We'll find the guy.
12:21We'll find the guy.
12:23Why'd your voice sound weird just now?
12:24It didn't.
12:25I know you better than you know yourself, Simmons,
12:26and I'm telling you it did.
12:31Wow.
12:32Those guys are good.
12:33Are you gonna stop fangirling for five minutes
12:34and actually do some work?
12:35Like, oh, I don't know, help me interview the band?
12:37Was Our Love Is On The Line a number one hit for 29 weeks straight?
12:42Yes, it was.
12:43Okay, look, we need to know where all the band members were
12:4520 minutes before the tech rehearsal started.
12:47Start with Rusty.
12:49What's his deal?
12:49He's the mature one.
12:52Sorry, it's my nebulizer.
12:54The steam helps with my vocal folds.
12:57A lot of singers use these.
12:58Sure.
12:59And Theo?
12:59Theo?
13:00He's the cute one, the star.
13:02So my Scorsese edition was super last minute.
13:04I mean, it was more of a creative call.
13:07Marty knows I can do the part.
13:08It's just a matter of scheduling or whatever.
13:10But after the call, I come back out.
13:14The bus was dead.
13:16What about Noah?
13:17Noah's the other one.
13:18I was in here before tech rehearsal,
13:20taking care of some administrative stuff for my portfolio.
13:23When the band broke up, I got into stocks and invested well.
13:25I'm on this tour for the music, not the money.
13:27Did you notice anything strange before the tech run started?
13:31Cody was a little off.
13:33Listen, I grew up with Cody.
13:35Like, we've been next-door neighbors since we were like two years old.
13:38Like, I love the guy.
13:39But he was acting like a weirdo all morning.
13:41Sure, Cody was behaving differently.
13:44But I don't believe he would have killed Theo.
13:46Cody wouldn't hurt a fly.
13:48Besides, we're a family.
13:51We're family.
13:52We're family.
13:56Okay, Noah and Rusty don't have alibis,
13:58and Cody, well, he's in the wind,
13:59so he looks more guilty than all.
14:01Do you really think one of the band members tried to kill Theo?
14:04The only reason this tour is even happening
14:05is because Theo agreed to do it.
14:07There's no too good to be true without Theo.
14:09That would be like Journey without Steve Perry
14:11or Queen without Freddie Mercury.
14:13You know, both of those bands have replaced their lead singers
14:15and still toured.
14:16Okay, well, you heard the guys.
14:17They're like a family.
14:25Axton, what's going on here?
14:27Look.
14:27I'm so sick and tired of you, man.
14:29I am in.
14:30You know it.
14:30Oh, shut the hell up.
14:35Okay, so they're like a dysfunctional family.
14:42Baby, I've been calling
14:46So tell me are you falling
14:50Baby, I won't ever lose your number in this heart of mine
14:55Never when our love is on
14:59Our love's on the line
15:07I gotta say, the Noah guy can kind of sing.
15:09Yeah, low-key.
15:11He's the best singer in the group.
15:12So why wasn't he the front man?
15:13Because Theo's the cute one.
15:15And cute trumps pipes in a boy band.
15:18Hey, guys.
15:20What's up?
15:21You mind explaining this?
15:22I'm so sick and tired of you, man.
15:24I am in.
15:25You know it.
15:25Oh, shut the hell up.
15:28When Too Good to Be True was formed,
15:30I was the lead singer.
15:31Then when Theo joined, the label wanted him as front man.
15:34I took a back seat for the good of the band.
15:36But this tour was supposed to be different.
15:38I was promised I would get to perform the one song where I'm lead.
15:42Too Hot to Chillax.
15:43You know it?
15:44Yeah, it's only my favorite Too Good to Be True song.
15:47Wow.
15:49That means a lot.
15:50Thanks.
15:51Okay, Noah, look.
15:52Why did you punch Theo?
15:54He decided to cut Chillax from the set list.
15:56Said it wasn't the right fit for the concert.
15:58It's always about control with him.
15:59You seem really mad at him.
16:01Listen, did I hit Theo?
16:03Yes.
16:04And he deserved it.
16:06But I would never kill him.
16:08We're brothers.
16:11Okay, maybe I'm crazy, but I think he's telling the truth.
16:15Me too.
16:15It's hard to believe anybody could be that good at lying.
16:18Except for maybe me.
16:19Because truthfully, Noah sounds great on Chillax,
16:22but as a song, it's incredibly mid.
16:25You told him it was your favorite song.
16:27Of course I did.
16:27Would you tell Jane Goodall that her guerrilla sign language was only just okay?
16:32Jane Goodall, we'll put you in Ben C's.
16:33I'll have you know.
16:34Okay?
16:35Same thing.
16:38Chief Lee, got any updates?
16:40Based on security footage,
16:41looks like an unknown person entered the warehouse just before the murder.
16:45The car license plate is assigned to a Wallace Marvovich.
16:48He's bringing them in now.
16:50Okay, we'll see you back at the station.
16:53We're running out of bars to check.
16:54Where the hell is this guy?
16:55Yeah, maybe we're looking in the wrong places.
16:58Like how?
16:59Just because he's a recovering addict doesn't mean he relapsed.
17:02Okay, well, what do you suggest?
17:03If you were, what's his name?
17:04Cody.
17:04You know his name is Cody.
17:05Okay, where would you go?
17:08Maybe, maybe someplace sentimental.
17:10Sentimental how?
17:12Someplace to do with his childhood.
17:15What is happening right now?
17:16Look up his hometown.
17:19Are you looking it up?
17:22Wait, he's from here.
17:24I'm no kidding.
17:25Specifically the neighborhood you just turned left into.
17:28What?
17:29How about that?
17:37Oh, a clown.
17:39There's got to be a way I can make this up.
17:41I can pay.
17:42I can pay.
17:43Whoa, whoa, easy there.
17:44We don't take bribes for murder charges.
17:46Right?
17:47Well, uh, murder?
17:51I thought this was about my unpaid parking tickets.
17:53The work has been unsteady.
17:55What kind of work is it that you do?
17:57I sing at kids' birthday parties.
17:58But there's a new magician in town,
18:01Mondo the Great.
18:02He makes a donkey disappear.
18:04And suddenly I'm old news.
18:06It's been a struggle to make rent.
18:08What were you doing at Too Good to Be True's rehearsal space?
18:11You know about that?
18:12That was supposed to be top secret.
18:13Top secret according to who?
18:15Theo.
18:15He said that it couldn't get out that I was auditioning for the band.
18:18Like replacing somebody?
18:19Who?
18:20They didn't say.
18:20They just sent the audio file and I learned the part.
18:23And you were with Theo the whole time during the audition?
18:25He stepped out for like five minutes to take a phone call,
18:27but other than that, yeah, he was with me.
18:29And you have no idea who you were supposed to be replacing?
18:32Could you sing your part of the song for me?
18:36Yeah.
18:40I'm not one for the pieces.
18:43And I need you and I know you need this.
18:45Okay, that'll do.
18:50You know I was part of this, don't you?
18:51Was Theo once engaged to a Kardashian?
18:56Yes, he was.
18:58Hey, right.
19:06But I'm not one for the pieces.
19:11Because I need you and I know you need this.
19:13I'm not supposed to let anyone in for this session.
19:15Cut the music.
19:17But I'm not one for the pieces.
19:23Theo's replacing me.
19:24So you didn't know?
19:25Of course I didn't know.
19:27I've been busting my ass and he's going to toss me aside?
19:30Oh, that is classic Theo.
19:32I don't get it, Rusty.
19:34I've seen millions of videos of you online singing beautifully.
19:37Yeah, that was then.
19:37Now I have vocal fold nodules.
19:41My vocal cords are strained and it's damaged my ability to sing.
19:44Hence the nebulizer?
19:45And the meditations.
19:47And the acupuncture.
19:48I've been doing everything I can think of to be two already.
19:51But Theo, he's pissed because my voice isn't fixed yet.
19:54I didn't think he was going to kick me out.
19:58What happened to being a family?
19:59That must be hard.
20:01Having the thing you love most taken away from you.
20:04I've been singing my whole life.
20:07I don't know who I am without it.
20:10I just wish we could go back to how things were.
20:22I'll get you a water, a sandwich, coffee.
20:24How do you take it?
20:25I'm okay.
20:26Thanks.
20:27Yeah.
20:27Okay.
20:29You're offering our suspect a snack?
20:32Standard practice.
20:35No, it's not.
20:37Okay, Cody.
20:39What were you doing in the car where we found you?
20:40I was parked in front of the house I grew up in.
20:43I just needed to clear my head.
20:44After committing a murder.
20:45Hey.
20:46Whoa.
20:47Easy.
20:49I'm sorry about my partner.
20:51Your bandmate said that you were acting weird leading up to Buzz's death.
20:54Is that because you knew what was about to happen?
20:56Not that we're accusing you of anything.
20:58Is this a good cop-bat cop thing?
20:59No, it's, uh, we're both cops, so why are you acting like this thing?
21:05I know how it looks, me running, and I have been acting weird.
21:09Why is that?
21:10I have been sober for ten years, but I have never performed sober.
21:14Not even during the 1997 MTV Music Awards when you were driving that motorcycle around the
21:18Ring of Fire with a bowl constrictor around your neck.
21:20You remember that?
21:20I was high as a kite for that.
21:22Really?
21:23I never would have guessed that.
21:24That's crazy.
21:26Look, back in the day, getting wasted helped me feel free, but now that I'm sober, there
21:32was nowhere to hide.
21:33It's just me.
21:36And you were scared to relapse?
21:37That's why I was on a FaceTime with my sponsor, Lloyd, uh, for that hour leading up to the
21:42tech rehearsal.
21:43Lloyd said if I got overwhelmed to get out of there for the sake of my sobriety, so when
21:48I saw Buzz die in front of me...
21:51You bolted.
21:52Otherwise, I was going to dive headfirst into some really terrible decisions.
21:57Ah, what is wrong with me?
21:58I don't want to relapse, but the idea of letting Theo down is driving me crazy.
22:03Yeah, I heard he's a real jerk.
22:04Theo can be a lot, but he's looked out for me, man.
22:08I mean, he even offered me a cameo on his solo tour last year until things fell apart.
22:18What do you mean things fell apart?
22:23Okay, so what'd you learn from the interrogation with Cody?
22:26Oh, just that, uh, Simmons is a giant, mega, possibly stalker-esque, too-good-to-be-true
22:31fanboy.
22:32What?
22:33Simmons?
22:34You've been holding out on me?
22:36Okay, fine.
22:37You got me.
22:38I had every album.
22:39I knew all the dance moves.
22:40So what?
22:40You should have seen him.
22:41He was all nervous and accommodating, saying things like, uh, oh, can I get you a drink,
22:45a sandwich, my firstborn?
22:47Listen, I was a quiet kid, okay?
22:49Bit of a loner.
22:50But when Our Love's on the Line came out, I learned all those dance moves, I performed
22:53it at the school talent show, and I won.
22:56Wow.
22:57Overnight, everybody looked at me differently, and that's when it hit me.
22:59It wasn't about the dance moves.
23:01It's about confidence.
23:01That's what Cody and that boy band, they showed me what true confidence really looked
23:04like.
23:05You know the dance?
23:06Yeah.
23:07Do it right now.
23:08I'm a grown man.
23:08Well.
23:09That's not gonna happen.
23:10Don't be ashamed.
23:11This is a too-good-to-be-true safe space.
23:13The point is, Cody is alibied.
23:16He was on FaceTime with his sponsor before the tech run.
23:18But, juicy reveal, Theo's tour last year was canceled due to low ticket sales.
23:23So, that's why he's back with the band.
23:26Golden Boy was floundering.
23:28Right, but where does this get us on the case?
23:29I mean, it's not like Theo was trying to orchestrate his own murder.
23:32No, but maybe this was all a publicity thing for this tour.
23:35Axton said there was renewed press interest after Buzz's death.
23:38Maybe Theo tampered with the fire line and made sure he was in the entrance box.
23:42All to create more buzz.
23:44Oh, pun intended.
23:46Right, because a near-death thing for Theo would garner a lot of attention for him and
23:50the tour.
23:50What?
23:50Theo with that birthday singing guy before the run even started?
23:54Yeah, well, birthday singing guy, aka Wallace, said that Theo stepped out for a five-minute
23:58phone call.
23:58Just enough time to mess with the power of techniques.
24:00Look, it's late, but let's put in a request for Theo's phone records.
24:03They won't come in until the morning, but maybe they'll give us a better sense of what's
24:05really going on here.
24:06All right, we're on it.
24:08Mom!
24:12What?
24:13This is amazing!
24:15I want to do something special.
24:18And, your favorite.
24:19All I need is just one night, baby, I'll be calling.
24:24Tell me, are you falling?
24:28One, two.
24:29Baby, I won't ever lose your number in this heart of mine.
24:34Never when love is falling.
24:39I'm lost on the line.
24:42Ah, amazing!
24:44Ah, okay, that's the mac and cheese with extra cheese, also your favorite.
24:50You know what might be fun?
24:51If we went to see the Too Good To Be True concert.
24:55Yeah!
24:57That would be great.
25:10You have truly enlightened me to the peaceful joy of nature documentaries.
25:14I told you.
25:15Plus, who knew that orcas were actually members of the dolphin family?
25:18I mean, we definitely knew that.
25:20Right, Mark?
25:22Hey, Mark.
25:25Ugh, it's getting late.
25:27I should probably get home.
25:29Oh.
25:31Okay.
25:33I've just been staying over a lot.
25:35I don't want to invade your space.
25:39Right.
25:40Okay.
25:41I get it.
25:43Okay.
25:45Okay, here I go.
25:50See you tomorrow?
25:51See you tomorrow.
26:15What is all this?
26:18Oh, this is funny to you?
26:19Yeah, it's real funny.
26:20I spent five hours last night sourcing all this crap.
26:22Five hours?
26:23That's not dedication.
26:24That's a cry for help.
26:25You need a hobby.
26:26I have hobbies.
26:27No, appropriate hobbies.
26:28I have appropriate hobbies.
26:30Ooh!
26:32Look at all this.
26:33Can I have this?
26:34Mm-hmm.
26:35Oh, there's a lot more where that came from.
26:37Well, I want one of each.
26:38Oh, yeah.
26:38I got you.
26:40Good morning.
26:42Good morning.
26:43How was your night?
26:44Yeah, it was great.
26:45Um, how was yours?
26:47Oh, so great?
26:48That's so great.
26:50Max, tell us.
26:51We got a situation.
26:52Get down to the rehearsal space.
26:53Now.
26:54Okay.
26:55Well, what's up?
26:57Something happened to Cody?
27:00Is he okay?
27:01I don't know.
27:04How are we going to do this?
27:06Can I make a suggestion?
27:06Can I make a suggestion?
27:07This guy right here?
27:08I'm over it.
27:09I'm over it.
27:09I can't.
27:10I know me.
27:11This is all your fault.
27:13How is this my fault?
27:14What did I do?
27:15Uh, you tried to kick me out of the band?
27:16Yeah.
27:17You sound awful.
27:18So?
27:19What's going on?
27:20Disaster.
27:21The label postponed the tour.
27:22They say it's too dangerous to move forward with a killer on the loose.
27:26You guys aren't taking it well.
27:28All right.
27:28Let's go.
27:29See, it's good the tour's off.
27:31We were crazy to think we could go back to how things work.
27:33Wait, wait, wait.
27:34This is juicy.
27:34And the idea of being stuck in a tour bus with this jackass is a literal nightmare.
27:38Well, joke's on you because I was going to play private.
27:41Oh, my God.
27:42Dude, you're the worst.
27:51The detonation occurred right over here.
27:53So are we thinking?
27:54Pipe bomb, Molotov cocktails, some anarchist cookbook type stuff?
27:59I was a firework set off by a remote detonator.
28:04What's with all this red stuff and the debris?
28:06These are metal salts.
28:08They would give color to the fireworks.
28:11It's Simmons.
28:12I'll go talk to Poppy.
28:13Okay.
28:15All right.
28:23Oh, my God.
28:25You're right.
28:26There is a firing unit missing.
28:28This is your gear, though, right?
28:29You don't think I did this?
28:31Both incidents have involved your equipment.
28:33I'm just...
28:33I would never hurt these guys.
28:35They're like sons to me.
28:36Okay, okay.
28:37Like nephews, like hot 40-year-old singing nephews, but all I ever wanted to do was my
28:42job.
28:43Me and Buzz, we started out together.
28:45We were going to finish this tour together, but then...
28:47Finish this tour together?
28:49I thought Buzz was retiring as soon as the band got on the road.
28:51His plan changed.
28:53Yesterday morning, he comes to me with the good news that he's going to stay around for
28:56the full tour.
28:57What made him change his mind?
28:58Well, you've met these guys, right?
29:00They're sweet, but they're a handful.
29:03Buzz knew they needed them.
29:04There's no way they could pull off this tour without him.
29:06What about Axton?
29:08Wasn't he going to just take over?
29:10Buzz loved Axton, but he didn't feel like he was ready.
29:14And truthfully, Buzz, you know, I never thought he would retire.
29:17Retirement and aid for people like me and him.
29:19What are we going to do?
29:20Join a book club?
29:21No, our work is who we are.
29:26You can't arrest me, dude.
29:28I did not do this.
29:29I would never.
29:33Excuse me.
29:37Hey.
29:38So, Simmons got a hold of Theo's phone records.
29:41He was on a FaceTime call with his agent for the five-minute window when he stepped out
29:44of the room.
29:45So, Theo didn't have anything to do with this?
29:47Well, there was a text message that I found that was interesting.
29:50Here.
29:57So, this plus Buzz's retirement story is all different than what we were told before.
30:00I think we need to take a look at today's CCTV footage.
30:03Okay, great.
30:06Oh, yeah.
30:07No, just...
30:08Hang back for a second.
30:10Hey!
30:10I got the band together like you asked.
30:12Great.
30:13Where's Max?
30:14I don't know.
30:22Max, what are you doing?
30:24What?
30:24This is my chance to make a pop star entrance.
30:26Get over here.
30:28I'm doing it your way.
30:30So?
30:31Who's trying to kill me?
30:32No one.
30:33Because you were never the target.
30:35If Theo wasn't the target, then who was?
30:38Theo, why was your audition with Wallace moved up?
30:40I was told that was the only time I could do it.
30:42Who said that?
30:43Axel.
30:44Axel, you texted Theo an hour before the tech round.
30:46Hey, man.
30:47Audition for new Rusty's moving up to 9.50.
30:51If the tech round was supposed to start at 10, I mean, Theo never would have made it.
30:53New Rusty?
30:55Sorry, man.
30:55The schedule's always shifting, especially close to tour.
30:59And, I mean, we have a clear suspect, right?
31:03Pyro Poppy is the obvious culprit.
31:05You little Judas!
31:07Pyro Poppy's gear was used, yes, but she's not the one that set off the explosion.
31:12Axel, why are you wearing a different shirt than you were this morning?
31:15What do you mean?
31:16I'm not.
31:17Well, security gave us CCTV footage from outside the warehouse,
31:20and you're wearing a different shirt than you're wearing right now.
31:23We found this shirt in your office.
31:25You know, the one you changed out of.
31:28Pyro Poppy, mind telling us what this looks like right here?
31:30Yeah.
31:31Color fireworks sometimes stain the clothes.
31:33And our forensics team just confirmed that this is the same metal salt residue we found at the explosion site,
31:37which means that was you that set off that explosion.
31:39You wanted to make sure the tour continues, so you made sure Theo wasn't in his trailer when the explosion
31:44went off,
31:44and you framed Pyro Poppy.
31:45People are crazy.
31:46I mean, why would I do any of this?
31:48Poppy told us that Buzz shared he wasn't retiring anymore.
31:51He was going to stay on with you guys.
31:53He was?
31:54Yeah, he loved you guys.
31:55He wanted to be there for you.
31:56But Buzz only shared that news with two people, Pyro Poppy and you, Maxton.
32:00You've been Buzz's assistant for years.
32:02You knew a promotion like this would be huge for your career.
32:04Until yesterday morning, when he told you he wasn't retiring anymore.
32:07In fact, he might never retire.
32:09And you didn't like that, did you?
32:10You wanted him out of the way so that you could be the tour manager.
32:12And that's when you decided to kill him.
32:15How could you do that?
32:16You monster.
32:16You were a part of our family, man.
32:19Family?
32:21I don't even like you people.
32:24You're a bunch of entitled has-beens.
32:27And screw Buzz.
32:29Do you know how much of a control freak that guy was?
32:33He never trusted me with anything.
32:36So yeah, I took matters into my own hands.
32:39I moved the audition and I switched the lines.
32:41Because I knew that Buzz would step in for Theo.
32:44And he did.
32:46It's his own fault.
32:47We'll see how well that holds up in court.
32:51Hey!
32:57Well, thanks kids for cracking this one.
33:01Totally thorough, relentless, completely annoying.
33:05Just like my buddy Buzz.
33:07Thank you, Poppy.
33:08You're free to go.
33:11Later, guys.
33:16I got something to say.
33:23Axton was right.
33:24What?
33:25Not about, like, doing murder.
33:28I have been acting entitled.
33:30More like crazy.
33:33I've just been spinning out ever since my solo tour fell apart.
33:36And I just, I was terrified.
33:40I'm not what I used to be.
33:42Truth is, you're not what you used to be.
33:44And Rusty's not what he used to be.
33:47Or Cody.
33:48Or me.
33:49It's been 15 years.
33:51Gotten married.
33:53Divorced.
33:54Gotten sober.
33:55Had kids.
33:57Things have changed.
33:58But that's not a bad thing.
33:59It's not about pretending it's 1998 again.
34:02It's about moving forward.
34:04Embracing who we are now.
34:05Together.
34:07I love you guys.
34:09Can you forgive me?
34:12Are we going to group hug or what?
34:18Come on.
34:19Let's get out of here.
34:22Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
34:34Okay.
34:35Well, the dishes are all done.
34:37I would have helped, but...
34:39Yeah, I get it.
34:40Cat and Laps makes the rules, right?
34:45Oh, well.
34:46I guess Mark has spoken.
34:48I should probably go home.
34:51Uh, don't go.
34:54Really?
34:55Because last night when I went to leave, you didn't stop me.
34:58But I wanted to.
35:01And I didn't want to push it.
35:02But I, I know that things are different now that we're not on vacation.
35:05It is different, but in a good way.
35:08Look, I was nervous to ask you to stay the other night because...
35:15Sometimes it's hard for me to open up to women.
35:17Because the last time I did, I got burned.
35:20Ah.
35:22He has trust issues.
35:24Yes, he has trust issues.
35:26But I trust you.
35:27At least, I want to.
35:29I want it to be different with you.
35:31And I want to hold back.
35:34Okay.
35:36Let's promise to always be honest about what we're really feeling.
35:41I'm a journalist.
35:42Truth is in my bones.
35:44I can't do it any other way.
35:46Okay.
35:47Deal.
35:48Okay.
35:49I, um...
35:51Got you something.
35:54Oh.
35:55I did kind of break the bank on this one, so don't be expecting anything for Christmas.
36:05I thought that you could keep it here for the nights that you decide to stay.
36:11Because I'd like that.
36:15Never been swept off my feet by routine dental hygiene.
36:18Well, what can I say?
36:20I'm a romantic kind of guy.
36:34Hey, Mom.
36:35Ah, honey.
36:36Good news.
36:37I found some of the most chaotic interviews from Too Good to Be True's 90s era.
36:43Rusty and the Hiccups is so insanely funny.
36:47Mom, can we talk?
36:49Of course.
36:52Last night, you mentioned going to the Too Good to Be True show.
36:56And I'm not sure if you remember, but 15 years ago, we had tickets to go to the concert.
37:04But we didn't.
37:06Because you died.
37:09Oh, my God.
37:10I'd completely forgotten about that.
37:12I am so sorry.
37:13I was just so happy to have you back.
37:16I wasn't thinking about how all of this must feel for you.
37:20The situation is complicated.
37:21I mean, there's no self-help book when your mom comes back from the dead.
37:26Trust me, I've looked.
37:29I just can't pretend that no time has passed between us.
37:32We're not the same people that we were 15 years ago.
37:35But I'd like to get to know you now.
37:39That sounds wonderful.
37:41So tell me something about you that I don't know.
37:45Honestly?
37:46Yes.
37:49I don't like Too Good to Be True.
37:51I love how excited they make you, but I just can't with their music.
37:56Wow.
37:57Okay.
37:58So what music do you like?
38:00Ska.
38:00Ska?
38:01Like with the trumpets and the fedoras?
38:04Yes.
38:04It's a grossly underrated genre, by the way.
38:06And I will make you a playlist.
38:08You know what?
38:09Deal.
38:10Deal.
38:11Deal.
