00:01Previously on Hudson & Rex.
00:03Well, it's five days to Christmas, St. John's.
00:06Laura.
00:07Took an earlier flight. I wanted to surprise you.
00:09Merry Christmas.
00:10I'm not sure quite St. John's can compete with my mother's usual big city festive season.
00:15But I'm taking her to see that marble sculpture at the cathedral.
00:18Oh, the Veiled Madonna.
00:20It only comes out at this time of year.
00:21And as an art expert, your mother's gonna absolutely love it.
00:24I know that man. He's not supposed to be here.
00:27This guy is a client of yours?
00:29I negotiated a plea bargain for him on money laundering charges.
00:32What about the buyer?
00:33Use the name Bob Ladron.
00:35Okay, mystery man. Laundering millions of dollars of his own money.
00:38Who is this Bob?
00:39He's a ghost.
00:42Why choose some random contractor in Halifax?
00:45I know how it might look suddenly leaving Halifax.
00:47You have to admit the timing's a little suspicious.
00:50I need to see in that box.
00:51Please don't tell my family.
00:53They don't know anything about this.
00:55Rex, meet Holly.
00:56Holly, meet?
00:57Molly.
00:58Yeah.
00:59I just wanted to give Cooper a magical Christmas before I go to prison.
01:03Nobody move!
01:03Take it easy.
01:05Easy, Rex.
01:05Give me the box!
01:15Rex!
01:16All units be on the lookout for a black pickup truck.
01:19Make and model unknown.
01:21Canine officer last seen in an open cargo bed.
01:23Driver is armed and dangerous.
01:26We've gotta find Rex and Holly before Christmas.
01:47Matthew survived the shooting, but it's still unconscious, and there's no sign of the shooter.
01:52I've called in every available officer, but they may have already left the city.
01:55And disappeared into the maze of back roads in central Newfoundland.
01:58Mark, we're gonna find him.
02:00Do we have the cell footage that Matthew's wife was recording when her husband was shot?
02:03Jesse's pulling it up right now.
02:04Right.
02:05Here's the exact moment that the shooter enters the Tibbs Eve party.
02:09Nobody move!
02:10You really think this was a targeted hit?
02:13Absolutely.
02:13See how he zeroes in on Matthew immediately?
02:16Demands a present in his arms, and then shoots him, even though he's putting up no resistance.
02:21I don't think he had any idea what was in that box, or cared.
02:24He certainly didn't know it was an innocent puppy.
02:26So, do we think this guy just dressed up like the Mummer gang to lay the blame for the shooting
02:30on them?
02:30Not knowing that we had Santa Pants here in custody?
02:32But if that's true, then who sent the hitman to take care of Matthew?
02:35Well, everything points towards the international criminal that Matthew claims tricked him into committing a crime.
02:41The elusive Bob.
02:43We've only got a picture of the back of his head, so it's time to take a deeper look at
02:46our family man from Halifax.
02:48He may not be as innocent as he looks.
02:50All right.
02:52I'll head back to the inn, I'll collect his electronics, and check in with Sarah.
02:55I'll drop by the hospital. Maybe Matthew's wife knows more than she's saying.
03:00Yeah, we'll have helicopters in the air at first light looking for the shooter.
03:04We're gonna find Rex.
03:05Yeah.
03:06I know he can take care of himself, John.
03:10Worried at the risks that Rex might take if he's in protector mode.
03:12I mean, he is not gonna let anything happen to that puppy.
03:48So having the bullet will help track the shooter?
03:51Yeah.
03:52Examining the unique striations pressed into the projectile from the barrel could help determine if the weapon was used in
03:57previous crime.
04:00You know, all these years, I never worried about you and your work.
04:03But now that I see how dangerous it is, I...
04:05Mom, you don't need to be concerned.
04:07Oh, that's no longer an option, sweetheart.
04:10But I've never been more proud either.
04:13Mom.
04:18I think Matthew's laptop could help us track down Rex and the shooter.
04:21Poor little Holly, too.
04:23I feel so sorry for Cooper.
04:26Look, I'm sorry your whole inn has turned into a crime scene on Christmas.
04:31So it brought us back together.
04:35I actually have a confession to make.
04:36Yeah?
04:37Remember how I sat behind you in medieval history?
04:40Uh-huh.
04:41I prefer the Renaissance era.
04:44I just hoped we'd become friends.
04:48Well, there's no crime in that.
04:57Hey.
04:59He's still unconscious. Nothing's changed.
05:02Okay.
05:03I need to talk to Matthew's wife, Dawn.
05:06I offered to represent her as the wife of an existing client.
05:11Of course you did.
05:13We can talk out here.
05:15Yeah, sure.
05:17Dawn.
05:19Mark may have to ask you some difficult questions.
05:22But why question me?
05:24Shouldn't you be out there looking for this mummer gang?
05:27We believe your husband may have been targeted, Dawn.
05:30That the crime is only staged to look like the mummer robberies.
05:33You think someone meant to kill Matthew?
05:39Do you know why anyone might want to harm your husband?
05:42Could it have something to do with, uh, this man, Bob?
05:46The criminal Matthew claims he only met once.
05:50I would advise you to be forthcoming.
05:53The shooter is still out there.
05:55You need to protect your family.
05:59Matthew is a good man.
06:00He's a good husband and a good father.
06:04But I questioned his reasons for the sudden trip to St. John's.
06:08You think he might have come here and meet with Bob?
06:10We have reason to believe that he's also in St. John's.
06:13I don't know.
06:15But there were mysterious phone calls before and after we got here.
06:20Okay.
06:22I confronted him, but the surprise puppy seemed to explain all that.
06:32What?
06:34The night before last, I woke up in the night and Matthew was gone.
06:38I looked all over the inn, but...
06:42He came back about an hour later.
06:45How did he explain his absence?
06:47He said he just went out for a walk.
06:50To look at the Christmas lights.
06:52Soaking in the last of his freedom.
06:54But you didn't believe it.
06:56I know Matthew would never do anything that might harm me and Cooper.
07:01But I think he's in trouble.
07:04And then it's getting worse.
07:07Is my dad gonna wake up soon?
07:11Mom.
07:12He's gonna give me a puppy for Christmas.
07:16You know about Holly?
07:17I saw her, but now she's gone.
07:20Mom, we're gonna do everything we can to set this right.
07:24Okay, Cooper?
07:25Promise?
07:27My partner, Rex, is also on the job.
07:35It's okay. It's gonna be okay. I promise.
07:46It's okay.
07:47Copy that, search one. Starting the first leg of the grid search.
08:07Bob! All set.
08:10Everything went as planned.
08:12Is that so?
08:13Well, I've got news for you, Oliver.
08:15He's still alive.
08:18Listen, uh...
08:19Look, I'm sorry.
08:20Wait, I saw that guy go down.
08:21Just get to the rendezvous spot and meet me there.
08:23And Oliver, dump whatever you took at the inn.
08:25I don't want anything connected to that botched shooting.
08:28Yeah, will do.
08:52I don't want anything to do there.
08:59I'm sorry.
08:59They're all right.
08:59And are you there?
09:00You don't want anything to do with the speed?
09:01Well, this is their use of the right,
09:01but they're all right.
09:01They're all right.
09:10Let's go.
09:49What have we got?
09:50We've got helicopters searching for wrecks in the shooter, setting up a grid.
09:54Joe's supervising.
09:55I ran the bullet stations through the system, but no matches in the Canadian database.
09:58I'm going international.
09:59Okay, have we tracked Matthew's movements the night that he left the end?
10:02Through cell phone and CCTV.
10:04I pick him up intermittently.
10:06He head south from the inn, then I lose him in the park.
10:10But then I pick him up again on the other side.
10:13There.
10:14But now he's got some kind of crate?
10:17And where is he going with it?
10:18Straight uphill.
10:20To the cathedral?
10:21Where he has a key to the underground vaults.
10:24Why would he be sneaking into the cathedral in the dead of night?
10:28Because he plans to bring something back out.
10:29You mean steal from the church?
10:31It could be, because 15 minutes later, he leaves with the crate.
10:35If Matthew did steal something, what is it?
10:40Remember how I said I was taking my mom to see the statue they put on display for Christmas?
10:44Yeah.
10:45The Veil of Madonna.
10:46Veil of Madonna.
10:46Veil of Madonna.
10:48Okay, a marble sculpture by Italian artist Giovanni Strasa primarily resides at the presentation convent.
10:54But is transferred to the cathedral for Christmas services.
10:58So we think that Bob got Matthew to steal the Madonna, and then he tried to have Matthew kill to
11:02cover his tracks.
11:03If we're right, we're a step closer to catching these guys and getting Rex home for Christmas.
11:50You think Bob got Matthew to steal the Veil of Madonna from the cathedral?
11:53Mark's on his way there now to confirm.
11:54If the mayor was enraged by the Mummer gang, she's going to be absolutely nuclear over this one.
11:58Wait, so Bob may be a high-end art thief?
12:00Well, it makes sense.
12:02He steals the art, sells it, then needs to loan to the proceeds.
12:05Well, we need to get an idea and track this Bob down.
12:07Jesse, send me a list of suspected art thieves who are still at large.
12:10I'll get my mom to reach out to other high-end designers.
12:12You think an interior designer would know an art thief?
12:14Well, the art most likely ends up decorating wealthy mansions.
12:17Designers like to talk.
12:18Well, I couldn't track Matthew's return from the cathedral.
12:20He took a different route.
12:21Now, uniforms, they comb the park.
12:23I'll get them to search the inn for that lost crate.
12:28I'm guessing he would have told us if there was any sign of Rex out there.
13:01Let's see how he sets the inn for it.
13:08I don't know.
13:45We discovered the door to the vaults unlocked this morning, but didn't imagine that someone might have stolen the veiled
13:51Madonna.
13:52She's been venerated in this parish for generations.
13:55Where and what exactly are the vaults?
13:57Old tunnels that connect various buildings on the grounds.
14:01It's a maze down there.
14:02Now, I understand the statue resides at the convent, for the most part.
14:06It's here only a few days leading up to Christmas Eve.
14:09I suspect a thief may have been aware of this.
14:10Would anyone outside of the cathedral have access to the vaults?
14:14There's an entranceway on the grounds, but the key's been lost for years.
14:18Does the name Matthew Flanagan mean anything to you?
14:20Not that I know of.
14:22There was a Malcolm Flanagan employed here for decades.
14:26He was the groundskeeper.
14:27Might have had a grandson named Matt.
14:30I'll be sure to look into that.
14:33The statue is supposed to be under here.
14:36I think you better brace yourself, Father.
14:54She's here.
14:56I don't understand.
14:58Neither do I.
14:59But I think I know who might be able to help.
15:13You're looking for the wooden crate that Matthew had?
15:16Yeah, yeah.
15:17It's a bit bigger than a bread box.
15:19I always found that phrase odd.
15:21Bread box.
15:22Well, I mean, it's from a popular 1950s game show.
15:25Sort of like 20 questions.
15:27You know, asking, is it bigger than a bread box, sort of became a running gag.
15:31Because bread boxes, they were ubiquitous in kitchens at the time.
15:33And I realize now that I am just rambling so much.
15:37Don't be sorry.
15:38I like your explanations.
15:41You know, I'm sorry all this has ruined your first holiday season in St. John's.
15:48I'm trying not to think about it too much.
15:50What everyone else is going through is so much worse.
15:53Yeah, but you're allowed to feel sad, too.
16:01Hey.
16:03I have a question for you.
16:06Yeah.
16:10Would you like to come to my Christmas movie marathon?
16:15Only if you're showing It's a Wonderful Life.
16:17It's my favorite.
16:18Really?
16:19I am showing that.
16:21Okay.
16:22I think an angel just got her wings.
16:24Uh-huh.
16:26Okay.
16:27I'm, uh, I'm going to go back to work.
16:29Yeah.
16:30Help find that mystery wooden crate.
16:32Oh, this is yours, actually.
16:33Okay.
16:33I'm, uh, I'm, uh.
16:43Hey, everybody.
16:46Sit down before me.
16:48Yeah.
16:50I'm fine.
16:52Bye.
16:55Bye.
16:55Bye.
16:55Bye.
16:55Bye.
16:56Bye.
16:57Bye.
16:57Bye.
17:27Who's there?
17:28Bob?
17:59Bob, I'm here.
18:01All set.
18:02Everything tying me to the Mummers is accounted for.
18:04I'm on my way to collect the merchandise, and I wouldn't mess up again if I were you.
18:20So, you have some mug shots you want me to look at?
18:23Suspected art thieves.
18:25Mostly surveillance photos.
18:29Well, I have a very wide circle of friends, Sarah, but I don't think it includes out-and-out thieves.
18:37Here.
18:39Take your time.
18:40It can be difficult to recognize someone out of context, and some of these shots are years old.
18:45You just have to swipe up.
18:50Huh.
18:51Oh, nobody looks particularly familiar.
18:55But dubious characters in high-end art do tend to go hand-in-hand.
18:59Of course, I'm always very careful when purchasing.
19:02Make sure that there's a clear chain of title.
19:05I remember being a little girl and going to the charity auctions with you at Christmas.
19:09Watching you outbid everyone else, it was very exciting.
19:12Oh, I'm glad.
19:15I'm sorry I wasn't home with you more, though.
19:18Don't be.
19:19Having a successful, talented Mum was great inspiration.
19:23Well, I wish I could be more help here, but...
19:28Wait.
19:28Wait this man.
19:32I think he used to sell high-end art in London decades ago.
19:36Could be he was stealing that art himself.
19:38What was his name?
19:40Robert.
19:41Robert Chisholm.
19:43Last I heard, he moved to Monaco, and that was years ago.
19:47Mark, hey.
19:48I think we may have an idea on Bob.
19:50Well, that's great.
19:51Fill me in when you bring the forensics team to the cathedral.
19:54It'd be great if, uh, Paige came too.
19:56I have something I need her to look at.
19:58Okay.
20:20So Bob really is an international art thief.
20:23Jessica back to me and confirmed that Malcolm Flanagan was Matthew's grandfather.
20:27Hmm.
20:28And presumably showed him a secret way into the cathedral as a boy.
20:32Well, you really think this might be a fake?
20:34Oh, think about him.
20:34What better way for Bob to cover his tracks?
20:37Swap out the real statue for a fake so no one notices it's even gone.
20:42Well, that's what I want your mother to determine.
20:44It's right in here, safe and sound.
21:02Well, I've reached a conclusion.
21:04I have no doubt at all.
21:06This is the real Veiled Madonna, and it's priceless.
21:12This is the fake.
21:13What?
21:14Yeah.
21:15No, I picked it up in the park just like you said.
21:18The grain in the marble.
21:19It's not right.
21:20This is the one Matthew was supposed to leave behind at the cathedral, and if I don't deliver
21:25the real one to the buyer on Boxing Day, I'm a dead man.
21:32And so are you.
21:34Are you sure, Mom?
21:35Yes, I'm quite certain.
21:37You can't get this kind of Carrara marble anymore.
21:40So what was Matthew doing here in the middle of the night?
21:42Saying a Christmas prayer?
21:45Laura.
21:46Mark, Matthew's awake, and he's trying to leave the hospital.
21:49I'm on my way.
21:50Come on, Rice.
21:57We'll find him.
22:04Yeah, Matthew's not going anywhere.
22:06The hospital has no right to keep him.
22:09He can leave against medical advice.
22:11If I have anything to do with it.
22:14Matthew, are you sure this is a good idea?
22:16I'm fine.
22:17Don, I just want to get us home to Halifax.
22:19Not before you asked a few questions, Matthew.
22:21About your late night trip to the cathedral.
22:24You know about that?
22:25Um, why don't you two come wait in the other room?
22:29Come on.
22:31Tell me everything, Matthew.
22:34Why you really came to St. John's.
22:35Why you went to the cathedral in the middle of the night
22:37and your real relationship to Bob.
22:40I'm sorry, Matthew, but as your attorney,
22:43I would advise you to remain silent.
22:44Excuse me?
22:45I don't think my client should say anything more
22:47until we've had a chance to debrief.
22:49You know we need to find Bob and Rex.
22:51I know.
22:51And it, it kills me to be the one to get in the way of that.
22:55But I have a client and his family to protect.
22:57As a lawyer, I took an oath, Mark.
23:00And as a police officer, I took one too.
23:01Matthew Flanagan, you're under arrest for breaking and entering.
23:04Give me your hands.
23:04It's all right.
23:05I'll, I'll come willingly.
23:06I have to come clean, Laura, about everything.
23:10But promise you will protect my family,
23:12no matter what happens to me.
23:14I'll have an officer take them back to the inn
23:16where they'll be safe.
23:18Let's go.
23:24Because of your incompetence, I have to go and steal the real Madonna
23:28and find a way into that cathedral myself.
23:31What if Matthew talked?
23:32Could be crawling with cops by now.
23:34You better hope he hasn't.
23:36See, that's why I don't let anybody see my face.
23:40And live.
23:49Search one.
23:50Still no sign of a black pickup heading further north.
24:12Hey.
24:15I'm on my way to a briefing, seeing what additional measures we can implement in the search.
24:21Yeah, Laura's having a debrief with Matthew.
24:23Maybe he can give us some idea of where to look.
24:26Right.
24:30It's not exactly the kind of holiday any of us are planning on, is it?
24:35No, not exactly.
24:36Yeah.
24:38You know, my mother, she had it harder than me growing up.
24:43The struggle was real.
24:45Christmas was rough growing up without anyone or anything.
24:51But she always had hope in her heart.
24:55No matter what.
24:57She always brought that with her.
25:00And she didn't wait for it to come.
25:05Don't be afraid to hope, Mark.
25:07Yeah.
25:08Thanks, Joe.
25:18Matthew's ready to be interviewed.
25:21Just to be clear about the evidence we have against your client,
25:25we have surveillance footage of Matthew heading into the cathedral at night.
25:32We have cell phone records showing multiple calls to an international burner phone.
25:38Bob's, perhaps.
25:39And it turns out that your client's grandfather, who he visited as a boy,
25:44was a groundskeeper at the church who would have known the vaults beneath like the back of his hand.
25:50Thank you for being so forthcoming, detective.
25:55Before you begin questioning, my client has a statement to make.
25:59I'm all ears.
26:04I'd just like to say that everything that I told Laura and the judge in Halifax is true.
26:09I only met Bob once.
26:12And he tricked me into breaking the law for him.
26:15When did you learn that he was an art thief?
26:21Two weeks ago.
26:23He contacted me out of nowhere.
26:25And threatened me.
26:27Threatened you how?
26:28He said I had to do a job for him, or my family would be in danger once I start
26:34my prison sentence.
26:35What was the job?
26:38To come to St. John's, and steal the Veiled Madonna, and swap it out for a fake.
26:46I'm not sure I understand we've had an art expert examine the Veiled Madonna at the cathedral.
26:52It's the real one.
26:56I did everything I was told until the last minute.
26:59I entered the church through the vaults, navigated in the way my grandfather taught me.
27:04But when it came to swapping the statue, I, uh, I just froze.
27:11I mean, what kind of husband and father had I become?
27:17I was stealing from a church at Christmas.
27:29And then I realized how perfect the replica looked.
27:34And I decided to return the fake to the drop spot.
27:37You double-crossed an international criminal and then stuck around for a Tibbs Eve party?
27:42The most suspicious thing I could do was run.
27:45And Bob could have just as easily tracked me down in Halifax.
27:50The replica looked so perfect, I thought he would just sell it, and no one would know the difference.
27:55And at no point did you think you should inform the police instead, or you're a lawyer.
28:00I...
28:03I was frightened...
28:05for Don and Cooper.
28:07And I guess you didn't know that the last part of Bob's plan was to...
28:10silence you forever.
28:17But now I know...
28:19none of us will be safe until he is behind bars.
28:23Sorry to interrupt.
28:24A uniform just found Holly's blanket on an off-grid road.
28:33A helicopter's standing by to take you to the location.
28:35Okay.
28:36I'll update the mayor.
28:37Good luck.
28:38Yeah.
28:39Well, I don't need luck, Joe.
28:40I've, uh...
28:42I've got hope.
28:45Be careful out there.
28:47I'll get you all home safe and sound for Christmas.
28:54Hope there's room in the chopper.
28:56For sure.
29:19Rex!
29:22Rex!
29:26Canine unit's still en route, but...
29:28I mean, that's definitely two sets of paw prints.
29:31Yeah, temperature's dropping fast.
29:35Rex wouldn't just head out into the woods with a puppy.
29:38No.
29:40No, not without a plan.
29:43But if he thought he could get her somewhere safe...
29:52Let's see if we can drag him.
30:01There must be some way I can steal the real statue.
30:05We gotta go, Bob.
30:06Like, we gotta get right off the island.
30:08You said you had some money being wired, right?
30:10We will get the money and then go, but not empty-handed.
30:13Well, let's just...
30:13Let's just take this and go.
30:15Don't...
30:15Don't touch her.
30:21What the hell?
30:30How did you get here?
30:36Don't fall off the map.
30:38Push that down.
30:39Is this what you want?
30:43Just give him a puppy, man, before he tears us apart.
30:45You won't do anything that might let this little one get hurt.
30:48Will you, huh?
30:55We got company.
30:56Cops, take care of them.
30:58Now.
31:05That's right!
31:07Get on!
31:09Get off!
31:13No!
31:15Ow!
31:15I got him.
31:16Rex.
31:18Hey!
31:20Rex?
31:37Hey, it's okay. It's okay. We'll catch up to him.
31:42But...
31:44Oh, that's Holly's blanket. That's how we found you.
31:48Hey.
31:53Wait, he still has her.
31:58Hey, you did a good job, okay?
32:01We'll do everything we can to bring her back.
32:03I promise you. I promise you.
32:16Hey, there's a good boy. Hey.
32:20Hey.
32:21Well, I hope he got lots of extra treats.
32:23Hey, it's so great to have you back. It's time for Christmas.
32:27Hey, what's wrong, Rex? Is he okay?
32:28No, he's fine physically.
32:30Until we get Holly back, I think he feels like he failed.
32:34No, no, you didn't fail, big guy.
32:37No, you kept Holly safe despite all odds.
32:40Now it's up to the whole team to bring her home.
32:41I'm going to do that by finding Bob.
32:43We've got a bolo out on that SUV, but without plates, it's hiding amongst hundreds of others like it on
32:49the island.
32:49Airport and ferries are covered.
32:51And our shooter, a.k.a. Oliver Guthrow, has been transported back.
32:55Let's see what he has to say about his elusive boss.
33:02That's okay, bud.
33:04We're happy you're home.
33:08Yeah, things aren't looking too good for you, Oliver.
33:12We have footage of you shooting Matthew.
33:14We found him on our disguise you wore.
33:17Not to mention your Glock 17, and I'm pretty sure that the bullet we pulled out of the wall at
33:22the inn is going to be a match.
33:26I've got nothing to say.
33:28You really want to go down for all this and let Bob go free?
33:32You're not worried that he might put a hit out on you?
33:35That's why I don't let anybody see my face and live.
33:40Just like you did with Matthew?
33:44You help me, I tell the judge you cooperated.
33:49Silence gives you nothing.
33:52Where can we find Bob?
33:57Look, I don't know where he is, but he told me that he had to find the real statue.
34:05You really think he's going to try and steal the veil of Madonna again?
34:08Told me he's a dead man if he doesn't deliver by Boxing Day.
34:11So.
34:14Mind answering a question for me?
34:18What's that?
34:19Where'd that dog come from?
34:21Back in the building?
34:23And that little puppy?
34:27Let's just call them Christmas miracles.
34:32So Oliver's convinced that Bob is going to try to steal the statue again.
34:35And today's the last day the statue's going to be on display at the cathedral?
34:38After midnight mass on Christmas Eve, it goes back to the convent on the other side of the grounds where
34:42security is a lot tighter.
34:44Do we think he's going to try to steal it en route?
34:46He's got to know who we're going to be watching.
34:48It's a suicide mission.
34:49So he's failing to deliver it, according to Oliver.
34:53I learned more about our art thief, Robert Chisholm.
34:58This photo is from two decades ago when Chisholm was suspected of dozens of heists.
35:02No mug shots?
35:03No.
35:04Never caught, never arrested.
35:05Oh, so he's got the resume for the job.
35:06Yeah.
35:07Why don't we simply ask the priest to remove the statue early?
35:11Just keep it under lock and key.
35:14Right.
35:14The mayor is going to love that.
35:15The centuries-old tradition of Newfoundland mummering tarnished, not to mention the city's most precious statue, wasn't on display Christmas
35:22Eve.
35:22We need to capture Bob tonight before we miss our last chance to put him behind bars.
35:29Holly's blanket.
35:35We haven't forgotten about Holly.
35:40We have to remember that maybe Bob is...
35:42What were you saying before about hope?
35:46Okay.
35:48We'd have to run this by Father Francis.
35:51Ultimately, the decision on how much to risk the statue is up to him.
35:56Yeah.
35:58Meanwhile, Jesse, why don't you, uh, have a long talk with Matthew?
36:02We need to know about every nook and cranny in the cathedral if we're going to capture this master art
36:06thief in his own game.
36:07You got it.
36:11Everything's almost ready for Christmas.
36:12I thought it would really feel like Christmas once Rex was found.
36:16Not a present's been opened.
36:19She's been through so much.
36:22Having her dad with her and Holly back would be a big comfort to her.
36:25And having Bob behind bars would be a comfort to her family.
36:29Sarah and the team are at work.
36:30There's still time.
36:42We expect that the thief will make his move when the statue's being transported back to the convent.
36:47I suppose the wise thing to do would be to use the replica you recovered?
36:53Undeniably.
36:53But our thief, Bob, knows how to tell the difference.
36:56Besides, if we scare him off with a fake, I'll be looking over my shoulder every Christmas wondering if he's
37:01come back.
37:02Well, we can't let that happen.
37:04We need to trap him tonight.
37:06You'll have your officers watching her at all times.
37:08Oh, every second.
37:10Because I have no doubt that Bob will be watching back.
37:18Thanks.
37:25Rex, come on.
37:30It looks like your canine friend is still on the job, Pop.
37:35You may come in very useful.
37:42For now, at least.
37:49The last of the parishioners have left, Joe.
37:52Sarah and I are in position outside.
37:55Special Ops Christmas edition is a go.
37:57Copy that.
37:59Plan is a go.
38:00Time to move the Madonna back to the convent.
38:05Mark, a group of nuns just entered the cathedral.
38:08Yeah, I'm watching.
38:09Rex is aware.
38:13He's picked up a scent.
38:28Jesse, target's on the move.
38:32Stop!
38:32FQTD!
38:33Stay where you are!
38:35Oh my word, you scared me!
38:37I apologize, sister.
38:39I have to ask.
38:40Where did you get that puppy?
38:43Someone rang the bell and left her on the stoop.
38:46We are bringing her to Father Francis.
38:49Wait, Rex was tracking Holly, not Bob.
38:53A decoy.
38:54Which means...
39:01Well, he certainly flushed him out all right.
39:06He's doing target!
39:20Give it up, Bob.
39:22There's nowhere to go.
39:23You take me down!
39:24She's going with me.
39:26Set the statue down.
39:28It's over.
39:29You shoot me, and I will drop her.
39:31And you will have robbed the city of its most sacred possession.
39:34You want that on your conscience?
39:36To destroy a beloved part of this island's Christmas tradition?
39:41You're right.
39:43There's no way we can let that happen.
39:45Luckily, we still have a few tricks up our sleeve, too, Bob.
39:52It's a statue.
39:54How could you just...
39:56She's worth a fortune.
39:58Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
40:02This is not right.
40:03This is not right.
40:03Because it's your fake, Bob.
40:05No.
40:05The real statue was switched out right after Mass.
40:09Yeah, Phil, Madonna and Holly are both safe.
40:11And you, sir, have sinned.
40:14No, no, no, no, no.
40:16Fuck, no.
40:18You can't be.
40:19Send in the uniforms, Joe.
40:20Pick up this character.
40:22Then let's go save a little girl's Christmas.
40:32So much fun.
40:33So much fun.
40:35So much fun.
40:38I really love all this stuff.
40:41Christmas is absolutely my favorite time here.
40:43Oh, oh, oh, oh.
40:49And it just hit me there
40:54I didn't know what I was missing until I saw you there
41:01Come, sweetie
41:07We missed you
41:09Go ahead
41:17I hope Matthew's on the right path now
41:19I'm sure the charges will be dropped
41:22Or at least his sentence commuted
41:23I mean, he's fully cooperated
41:26And I hear he has an excellent lawyer
41:30Well, hopefully the judge agrees
41:32But
41:35Sneaky
41:35In the meantime
41:37Let us have a very merry Christmas
41:40Oh, Ray says she's keeping the bullet hole in the mama
41:43As a conversation piece
41:45Not sure I approve the design
41:48So we had a fake out of our own
41:50Our thieves, they've used deception since the dawn of time
41:55Jump
42:03You know, thank you so much for all of your input, Paige
42:06You know, you should become an official police consultant
42:09As a present to myself and my daughter
42:12I respectfully decline
42:16Hey, guys, team photo, Mark
42:18You guys want to get together?
42:19Yeah, sure, of course
42:20Yeah, of course
42:21Rex, of course
42:23Yeah, all right
42:24Get around
42:25Come on, team Christmas photo
42:27Rex
42:27Mm, all right
42:28Oh, there
42:30Oh, my goodness
42:31There we go
42:32Yep
42:32All right
42:33Thanks
42:34All right
42:35Okay
42:37You got her, buddy
42:40Smile
42:43Merry Christmas, everyone
42:59Bye, everyone
