00:01You should have brought a real flashlight.
00:04I didn't want to draw attention to us.
00:05Uh, hello.
00:07What exactly are we hoping to find?
00:09Well, I think that maybe Rhonda was seeing someone,
00:12but Mother can't find out who.
00:14Don't blame this on me.
00:16I can only do so much.
00:18So I thought maybe there might be some sort of clue in the trash,
00:21like, I don't know, love letters or receipts or something.
00:25I'm just shocked she doesn't separate her recycling.
00:27Okay, Mother?
00:28I just feel like I'm running out of time to help Jed.
00:30I don't want him to take the fall for something he didn't do.
00:33And why are you so sure that it's not Jed?
00:35Because I have to believe that people can change and grow
00:38and that we're not doomed to repeat the same mistakes over and over again.
00:41Uh, are we talking about Jed or are we talking about Mike now?
00:43Not you too, Andrea.
00:45For what it's worth, Bill said that Ely can't be easy to work with.
00:47Oh, really? You and Bill are perfect.
00:49Bill would never do this to you.
00:51Are you kidding me? We've made plenty of mistakes.
00:54There's tons that we both wish we could take back.
00:56Hannah, you made your point.
00:58Mike is not going to make the same mistakes.
01:03You don't know that for sure.
01:07Look at this. She might have already won the sweepstakes.
01:10Oh, good.
01:11All right. It's time to go, girls.
01:13It's getting hot around here.
01:15Hot?
01:15When I picked her up, she was watching a black and white whodunit.
01:18It's like it was a master class.
01:21Okay.
01:25I'm sorry.
01:26Oh, no.
01:28I'm gonna go inside.
01:29What?
01:29Yeah, Rhonda invited me, right?
01:31So just a few minutes, five minutes, wait in the car, okay?
01:33Hannah, Louise.
01:34Uh-oh.
01:37Oh.
01:38Oh.
01:41Five minutes.
01:46Follow me.
01:52Okay.
01:53Four.
01:53Four.
01:54Four.
01:55One.
01:55One.
01:58One.
02:01One.
02:01I wish that I could come back any time.
02:36You okay?
02:38It's too cold for my vocal cords.
02:40It's a five-minute chat.
02:41No.
02:48Duck.
03:10Get out.
03:29Well, that was a quick five minutes.
04:08It's okay.
04:09It's okay.
04:10It's okay.
04:10It's okay.
04:15Fuck.
04:18Fuck.
04:53He's in the bedroom.
04:55I'm gonna get you out of here, okay?
04:57Okay.
04:58Okay.
05:03Okay.
05:06Just follow me.
05:25Okay.
05:35Police!
05:36Stop where you are!
05:43Well, what happened?
05:44Did he get away?
05:46No.
05:46We called 911.
05:47They're on their way.
05:49I canceled it.
05:50Why would you do that?
05:51Aren't you gonna arrest him?
05:52What went down in there?
05:54I convinced him not to press charges against Hannah.
06:00Me?
06:01That was Thomas Scharr, Fronda's brother.
06:04Oh.
06:05Oh.
06:06Oh.
06:08Yeah.
06:09Well, it was really dark.
06:10Oh, Hannah.
06:12Can I have the keys to his house, please?
06:19I think you guys should get out of here.
06:21Thank you for calling me, Andrea.
06:23Of course.
06:26Yeah, thanks for calling him.
06:28What are sisters for?
06:30Drive safe.
06:35So, you met Rhonda's brother?
06:40Sort of.
06:42Were they close?
06:43No.
06:44I don't think they have been for some time.
06:47It's one of the reasons Rhonda was anxious about attending her aunt's funeral.
06:51Was there a particular reason for the bad blood?
06:53From what Rhonda told me, they're just very different people.
06:57He's kind of stuck up.
07:01He works in finance.
07:03Finance?
07:04I would never have guessed that.
07:06Why not?
07:07He just didn't have that finance guy vibe.
07:11I saw them arguing at Rhonda's house the day before she died.
07:15Rhonda did mention that there were some disagreements about her aunt's estate.
07:20She felt outgunned by his team of lawyers.
07:24Over inheritance?
07:26Their aunt was very wealthy.
07:29Huh.
07:41Hannah.
07:42Any new clues?
07:43Well, Mother, I am here with Andrea, and we were thinking that maybe you would take her to the airport
07:49tomorrow so that I could attend Rhonda's funeral.
07:53Of course.
07:54The killer always turns up at the funeral.
07:58Right.
07:59Well, maybe.
07:59So, um, so you'll do it?
08:01You'll take her?
08:01Darling, you're gonna need backup at the funeral.
08:04Which is why I invited Michelle.
08:06She'll meet me there.
08:07Mother, I agree with you.
08:08I think you should go with Hannah.
08:09I'll just get a car.
08:11Ow.
08:11Thank you, Andrea.
08:13And please make sure that your sister wears something appropriate.
08:16Mmm.
08:18Thanks, Mother.
08:25Hello, Dolores.
08:27Oh!
08:28Ken!
08:29Hello.
08:31How are you today?
08:32Is there something I can help you with?
08:35I don't think so.
08:37Well, I've been told you've been talking to members of the Booster Club.
08:41asking questions about my relationship with Rhonda Scharf.
08:45Well, I've been talking to a lot of people about Rhonda.
08:49Her death came as quite a shock.
08:51I was there, if you must know.
08:54Well, if there is something you'd like to know, I prefer that you ask me directly.
08:59All right?
09:09I've been here for almost two days and you still haven't said anything about the new
09:13professor at the university?
09:16Why would I?
09:17Uh, nice try, Hannah.
09:20Michelle may have been too young, but I remember how much you had a crush on him at college
09:24and how hurt you were when he moved on.
09:27Listen, I'm not interested in Bradford Ramsey.
09:30I just want to be with Mike.
09:32I know.
09:33I just wanted to hear you say it.
09:39Mother!
09:40Ken Purvis threatened me.
09:41What?
09:42Oh, yes.
09:43I ran into him at Kane's shop.
09:45He demanded that I stop asking around about his relationship with Rhonda.
09:49Why were you asking about Ken Purvis?
09:52Well, Hannah mentioned that he missed an important meeting with her the night of the murder,
09:56giving him opportunity.
09:58I was curious if maybe he had a motive.
10:01Mother, I have to be honest, I'm not comfortable with you putting yourself in a dangerous situation
10:05like that.
10:08My, how the tables have turned.
10:10If I am ruffling feathers, it means that I am on the right track.
10:14I will not be intimidated.
10:16Well, that is definitely true.
10:18Do you want to tell us all about what you learned?
10:19Yes.
10:20Come sit.
10:25All right.
10:27Earlier this month, Ken Purvis fired Rhonda abruptly from her post on the Booster Club.
10:33Stranger yet, no one I spoke with knows why.
10:36Oh.
10:36That is good work, Mother.
10:38And that's not all folks.
10:41When I looked down into his basket, there was a bottle of Bay Harbor cologne.
10:48Really?
10:49Mm.
10:50My car is here.
10:51I gotta go.
10:52Oh.
10:53Oh, no.
10:54Keep me posted on what you find out at the funeral.
10:56Oh.
10:56And I will see you next month.
10:59My little Hannah, Tracy needs me.
11:02I love you.
11:03Love you too.
11:04I love you.
11:05I'll see you soon.
11:06And stay safe.
11:07I'll try.
11:08Okay.
11:09You're such a perfect daughter.
11:11Oh, stop it.
11:12Miss you already.
11:13I can hear you.
11:18So nice to see so many came out for this service.
11:21Seems like Rhonda had a lot of friends in this town.
11:24But you know who I didn't see?
11:27I didn't see Rhonda's brother.
11:30Perhaps he left because of an unpleasant home invasion.
11:33Oh, singer.
11:35Oh, Joanna, your poem recitation was so moving.
11:40Thank you so much.
11:41Yeah.
11:41Mike, what are you and the sheriff doing here?
11:43Well, the sheriff just wanted us to have a presence here.
11:46You know, keep an eye out.
11:47Hello, Hannah.
11:49Dolores.
11:50Did you know Rhonda well?
11:52She was one of Hannah's dearest customers.
11:55Right.
11:56Of course.
11:57I was hoping to offer my condolences to Rhonda's brother, but I didn't see him.
12:01Hannah, I'm not sure that's such a great idea.
12:03Thomas?
12:04Who's just over there?
12:05I can introduce you.
12:08Um, great.
12:17Thomas.
12:20What were you holding up?
12:21As well as can be expected.
12:23It's very good to see you, Joanna.
12:25I'd like to introduce you to...
12:27Ms. Swenson.
12:30We are so very, very sorry about your loss.
12:36Uh, Rhonda was such a lovely woman.
12:38Thank you so much.
12:39My sister would have been heartened to see how many people showed up to celebrate her life.
12:44Uh, if you excuse me, thank you all for coming.
12:52That is not Rhonda's brother.
12:54What?
12:55Yeah, I saw him at Rhonda's house the day before she died, and that is not Thomas Scharf.
13:01Well, does she have another brother?
13:03No.
13:05Hannah, I assure you, I've known him for many years.
13:08I don't know who you think you saw, but that is Thomas Scharf.
13:14I'll wait.
13:24I don't understand what you're telling me.
13:26You think that the man that was at Rhonda's funeral, who's actually staying at her house, you think he's an
13:30imposter?
13:30Yes.
13:31Well, no.
13:34Maybe.
13:35It's just, it's just he's not the man that Rhonda claimed was her brother.
13:39So you think he's lying?
13:40Or Rhonda was.
13:41And what would she have to gain?
13:43What would he have to gain?
13:45Hannah, I checked his identification when he first gave me his name.
13:48Those can be faked, can't they?
13:50This is an ongoing criminal investigation.
13:52We have done our due diligence.
13:54No, of course.
13:55I get that.
13:57It just feels like something weird is going on here.
13:59Joanna told me that Thomas has taken Rhonda's house off the market.
14:03That does not seem weird to me.
14:05He just lost his sister.
14:06He probably wants to go through her belongings.
14:08Is there any chance that you misheard what Rhonda told you?
14:27Hannah?
14:28Ken Purvis is here.
14:34Here are the most popular options.
14:37Go ahead.
14:38Try.
14:41We'd like to choose four to six different options.
14:44We'll make sure your guests have plenty of variety.
14:47What do you think of the cannoli?
14:48That's amazing.
14:49Amazing.
14:50Add it to the list, please.
14:51Okay.
14:51Also, do you make, what is it called, a pastry tower with spun sugar?
14:59Oh, croquembouche.
15:00That's right.
15:01My wife and I recently got back from Versailles.
15:04It was our anniversary.
15:05Oh.
15:05And we saw one in a patisserie window.
15:08It made quite a statement.
15:09They sure do.
15:10I do know my way around a profiterole.
15:12I'd be happy to price that up for you.
15:14Please.
15:14Okay.
15:16My mother mentioned that she saw you at Kane's shop the other day.
15:21I'm afraid I might have been a little curt.
15:24You have to understand, Hannah, this is a small town.
15:27Rumors have a tendency to catch having my name associated with a murdered woman.
15:33I heard that Rhonda had been fired from the Booster Club.
15:36Can you tell me why?
15:38I don't like to speak ill of the dead.
15:43Rhonda was an invaluable member for years.
15:46She ran points on many of our fundraisers.
15:49She just became unreliable.
15:53Unreliable?
15:54How?
15:55Late for meetings, sloppy bookkeeping.
15:58She just seemed distracted by something else going on in her life and it affected her work.
16:05It was nothing against her personally.
16:07I just couldn't justify having her in that position.
16:11Of course.
16:12I understand.
16:15Help yourself to a micron.
16:17Do you want to add those to Liz too?
16:19Please.
16:20Great.
16:29I don't get it.
16:30We have Sawyer at the crime scene.
16:32We have his wrench.
16:33Why is the DA dragging his feet on this?
16:35He wants a motive.
16:36Case is purely circumstantial.
16:38Bring Sawyer in for another round of questioning.
16:40This time, press the story.
16:44Kingston.
16:45Uh, Detective, this is Thomas Scharf.
16:47Mr. Scharf, I'm sorry.
16:48I don't have any updates on your sister's case.
16:50I'm not calling about Rhonda's murder.
16:53Okay.
16:54So then how can I help you?
16:56I'd like to report a theft.
16:59So what happened with Joanna Grimes?
17:02It was good work, Hannah.
17:03I paid for the materials.
17:04Then she just stiffed me.
17:06She says you didn't show up.
17:07And that she's gonna have to pay to have the work finished.
17:09I take pride in my work.
17:12I shouldn't have walked away.
17:14I needed to cut my losses.
17:19When you were working at Rhonda's, did you notice anything unusual?
17:22No.
17:24Did she ever mention her brother?
17:29You know, now that you mention it, when I was there, he kept calling her cell phone, but she wasn't
17:33answering.
17:34She just sent it to voicemail.
17:36Like she was avoiding him?
17:37She certainly wasn't doing it as a courtesy to me.
17:41I got a warrant to search the premises.
17:47When Rhonda was in San Francisco for her aunt's funeral, she took something from the estate.
17:53Took as in stole?
17:54Yeah.
17:54A box of antique coins.
17:55They were worth a lot of money.
17:57Thomas claims that they were supposed to split them, but Rhonda disappeared before the lawyer got there.
18:01And I guess Thomas turned the house upside down looking for him.
18:04Wait, doesn't that give Thomas a motive?
18:06Yeah, but he would have had no way to get his hands on Jed's tools in order to frame them.
18:10I think I know where those coins are, Mike.
18:15They were right here.
18:16Did she have a safe deposit box?
18:18No, I've already spoken to the bank.
18:21If you saw them the day before she died, then they've definitely been stolen.
18:27Hannah, those coins were worth six figures.
18:29If Rhonda caught Jed trying to steal them, that is grand larceny.
18:32He'd be going back to prison for a long time.
18:35Which gives him a motive for murder.
18:48Hi.
18:49Bradford.
18:50Hello.
18:50Welcome back.
18:51What'll you have?
18:52I will have the same again, thanks.
18:54The tea cake was delicious.
18:56I'm so happy to hear that.
18:57But I do have a rule about repeat orders, Professor.
19:00Really?
19:01What kind of rule?
19:01I like to encourage people to try at least three different things before they get hooked on one
19:06and then they just order the same thing over and over again.
19:08I like that rule.
19:09In that case, I'll have a slice of lemon meringue pie, please.
19:13Okay.
19:14Sounds good.
19:15What's this?
19:16That is a logo that I saw on a t-shirt.
19:19I'm just trying to remember as much detail as I can because it would be great if I could identify
19:24the company.
19:25Here you are.
19:28My sister thinks it looks like a turtle.
19:29I think I know what this logo is.
19:33Really?
19:34Yeah.
19:36Is that what you saw?
19:39That's exactly it.
19:40Yes.
19:41Thank you so much.
19:44Lemon meringue is on me.
19:46Oh, thank you very much.
19:49Thanks.
19:53It's a logo for a construction company in Bloomington.
19:57And you saw this on his shirt?
19:59Definitely.
20:01Do you think you'd recognize the guy if you saw him again?
20:05Let's take a ride.
20:12So how'd you figure out the logo?
20:14Oh, well, I've been trying to sketch out what I remembered from that t-shirt design.
20:18Not my best work, but a customer recognized it.
20:20A customer?
20:22Yeah, it's someone I knew from college and has moved to town.
20:27Huh.
20:38So what do you mean by huh?
20:42Three separate people have told me about the new university professor that has been coming into the cookie jar every
20:49day.
20:50Sometimes living in a small town is very difficult.
20:53I agree with that.
20:54But I'm sure you noticed that you were choosing to withhold information from me.
20:59It's not the same.
21:00Okay.
21:01Well, then why didn't you tell me about an old college flame that moved to Lake Eden?
21:04Okay, because there's nothing to tell.
21:06I haven't spoken to Bradford in 20 years and he just showed up and he was definitely not an old
21:10college flame.
21:12And we just dated briefly.
21:18I'm very happy to hear that.
21:23And, Hannah, I wish that I handled the McDowell case differently.
21:30I am so sorry that I didn't tell you about the pressure the sheriff was putting on.
21:38Thank you, Mike.
21:41That means a lot to me.
21:46And I think we could both work on being more honest with each other.
21:56Now, why don't you tell me what you have on this construction company?
22:02Well, I've done a lot of research.
22:04Yeah.
22:05Because I found out about them.
22:07How much time do you have?
22:0820-minute drive to Bloomington I got all the time.
22:17You want to see the best in people.
22:19You want to live in a world where Jed is a good guy.
22:23He comes over and he fixes your oven and you give him a box of macaroons.
22:28Macarons.
22:29What?
22:29I gave him a box of macarons.
22:31Are we not saying the same thing?
22:33Macarons are a little French cookie, a sandwich cookie.
22:36Macaroons are made with coconut.
22:38Okay, that's not really relevant.
22:40It's an entirely different cookie, Mike.
22:42The point is, I think you should start preparing for the very real possibility that Jed is not the person
22:48that you think he is.
22:49But he might be exactly the person that I think he is.
22:53Hey, hey, that's him right there.
22:56Are you sure?
22:56Yes, 100%. That's the guy.
22:59Excuse me.
23:01Can I speak to you for a minute, please?
23:04Is there a problem, officer?
23:05No problem. Mr...
23:08Abrams. Clint.
23:10Mr. Abrams, I'd just like to ask you a few questions about Rhonda Scharf.
23:15I don't know a Rhonda Scharf.
23:18Really? Why were you at her house the other day?
23:20We have an eyewitness that, um, put you at 32 Cedar Drive in Lake Eden a few days ago.
23:27Me. I'm the problem.
23:29Hi.
23:32Right. Rhonda Scharf. Now I remember.
23:34She wanted some work done in her kitchen, called me in for an estimate.
23:37Then why did she say you were her brother?
23:39You said that you gave her an estimate? I'm assuming you have some paperwork on that?
23:44Yeah, I'm sure I have something.
23:46Do you mind if I take a look?
23:48With a warrant, sure.
23:51I'm not about to volunteer myself for a criminal investigation.
23:55Now if you'll excuse me, I'm late for a job across town.
23:58Thanks for your time.
24:01What a liar.
24:03Yeah, why would anyone get an estimate on a renovation after you put your house up on the market?
24:08Yeah, well, that too.
24:12But he's wearing Bay Harbor cologne.
24:17A lot of it.
24:29Psst.
24:30Mother.
24:31Can I get you something?
24:33I'm hot on the trail.
24:35I need a double chocolate stat.
24:39Okay.
24:40Why?
24:41What are you up to?
24:43I've been tailing Ken Purvis.
24:45I always think better with a cookie.
24:48You know, he was in here earlier.
24:50Oh, no.
24:51I've been tracking all his movements.
24:54I do think he's hiding something.
24:55He was very quick to jump into all of Rhonda's faults.
24:58Of course he's hiding something.
25:00He was having an affair with her.
25:02Oh, I actually don't think that was him.
25:04I think that might have been a different man.
25:07My.
25:08Now the plot thickens.
25:10So where did you see Ken?
25:12I got the drop on him over at the chameleon.
25:14He was giving Ellis a hard time for putting tuna in his salad.
25:18This was.
25:19But that doesn't make any sense.
25:21The whole point is to have tuna in a Niswa salad.
25:24Exactly.
25:25Turns out that our Ken Purvis is a vegetarian.
25:29Wait, Mother.
25:31Are you sure?
25:32Really?
25:33But that's the least of it.
25:35I will not stop until I uncover all his secrets.
25:38For Rhonda's sake.
25:41Put on my tab, honey.
25:44You don't have a tab!
25:46So you think Rhonda was dating this clink guy?
25:49Well, the cologne fits.
25:51Okay, but Ken Purvis also had the same cologne.
25:53So maybe it's just that popular?
25:55Right, I forgot.
25:57My Ken Purvis theory is in the trash.
26:00Turns out he's a vegetarian.
26:02Ah, so it's a no-go on the Asabuco.
26:04Exactly.
26:05So, what did you and Mike talk about on your way to Bloomington?
26:09The case, mostly.
26:11Mostly.
26:13We also talked about us.
26:15And did Mike apologize?
26:17What's this all about?
26:18I thought you were team Mike.
26:20The only way for you two to move forward is to confront what split you up head on.
26:24You can't keep avoiding the elephant in the room.
26:26It'll just come back to haunt you.
26:29He did apologize.
26:31Sincerely.
26:32Good for him.
26:33And by the way, I am team Hannah.
26:36Aww.
26:36Now, let's see what I can dig up on bachelor number two.
26:40You know what I don't get?
26:41Is why Rhonda had to keep it a secret from her friends.
26:44If she's dating Clint, why wouldn't she just tell them?
26:48I may have a theory on that.
26:51Hey!
26:52Isn't that Karen, the bartender from Alfredo's?
26:54Mm-hmm. Mother was right.
26:57Romantic entanglement.
26:59Affair de coeur.
27:00Ugh.
27:01Okay.
27:02Get it.
27:04She was keeping it a secret.
27:05I remember.
27:06Yeah.
27:06We can't ever tell her she was right.
27:08No, definitely not.
27:15I told you, Rhonda wasn't here.
27:17The police have her credit card statements.
27:19You're telling me they're not gonna find a charge from this restaurant on the night of her murder.
27:25She may have been here.
27:26The restaurant gets very busy.
27:28Did you know that she was seeing Clint?
27:31What do you mean?
27:33Well, you were dating Clint Abrams, right?
27:37How do you know that?
27:38Do you know Clint?
27:40He did some roof work for a friend.
27:43Did you talk to Rhonda that night?
27:45Is that what you don't want me to know?
27:53He was seeing her for six months behind my back. How would you feel?
27:57When did you find out?
28:00Two weeks ago.
28:02She left something in his car.
28:04Maybe she did it intentionally so I'd see.
28:07I don't know.
28:08What did you do?
28:10I confronted Clint.
28:11He swore that he'd end it.
28:13But when I saw her in here the other night ordering two meals to go.
28:16You assumed the worst.
28:18I followed her into the parking lot and we argued.
28:21She told me that she hadn't spoken to Clint in weeks.
28:24But you didn't believe her?
28:26No.
28:29Look, I'm sorry that I lied.
28:31Just when she turned up dead, I got scared that someone hurt a spite.
28:37Do you think that Clint met with her that night?
28:40I don't know.
28:41I haven't heard from him since.
28:54Hello.
28:55What a surprise.
28:57Please, come in.
29:02I just brewed a pot of tea. I'd love you to join us.
29:05Us?
29:05Good morning, dear.
29:07Mother.
29:07Hello.
29:08Are those croissants?
29:09No, they're ginger apple scones.
29:12So what are you doing here?
29:14Thomas was just telling the most delightful stories about Rhonda.
29:18Oh.
29:18Were you too close?
29:20Well, as children I suppose, but siblings grow up and apart.
29:23One of my sisters lives in my guest room.
29:26Yes.
29:27Oh, how unique.
29:33Would you mind if I...
29:35She needs to...
29:38Third door on the left.
29:41Lovely.
29:41Mm.
29:48I understand your daughter doesn't share my suspicion about Jed Sawyer.
29:55Oh.
29:55We don't.
29:57So who has aroused suspicion then, if not the last person to have been seen with her?
30:00There are multiple suspects.
30:02We have a few theories, but nothing...
30:07concrete.
30:08Oh, pardon me.
30:09Would you like some honey?
30:10Oh, no.
30:11I'm a purist.
30:13You know, they searched Jed's entire property and never found your box.
30:19Well, maybe he sold it.
30:21Oh.
30:21It's not a stereo or a flat screen TV.
30:25You and I both know that you can't sell something like that without a paper trail.
30:29You'd have to fence it.
30:31What is it you do exactly, Miss Swenson?
30:35Dolores, please.
30:37Uh, do you think that Rhonda planned to sell those coins?
30:41No, my sister was sentimental.
30:43The idea of those coins being in someone else's possession would have hurt her deeply.
30:47Oh.
30:48But not you.
30:49Well, unlike my sister, I don't have time for sentimentality.
30:52I don't see any sense in holding on to the past.
30:54That money could have been invested for both of our futures.
30:57My sister always had a hard time letting go.
31:00Oh.
31:00Oh.
31:02Oh, pardon me.
31:05Hello?
31:16Mother, I can't.
31:17Whoa!
31:17We need to develop a better code system.
31:20Your signals are simply inadequate.
31:22Later, okay?
31:23Look at this.
31:24I found a letter that she sent to the Vice President of the Booster Club, but she forgot to put
31:28a stamp on it, so it was returned.
31:29Oh, so sorry about that.
31:31Mm-mm.
31:32Now, where were we?
31:35Scones.
31:52Officer.
31:53So you got your warrant?
31:54Hmm.
31:55We subpoenaed Rhonda's phone records, and there were dozens of phone calls made to and from your cell phone number,
32:02dating back the last six months.
32:05So you want to tell me the real reason you were at Rhonda's house that day?
32:10I was having second thoughts about breaking it off.
32:13I told Rhonda that I wanted to be with her instead of Karen, but she said she was moving away.
32:20Did she say why she was moving?
32:23All she said was she had something to do and that was going to cause some trouble.
32:27Didn't want to be around for the fallout.
32:30Fallout?
32:30She got mean, but she seemed pretty upset.
32:34Hmm.
32:37And where were you the night that Rhonda was killed?
32:39Fishing.
32:40Out on Lake Eden.
32:43At night?
32:45Best time for walleye.
32:48Anyone with you?
32:50Nope.
32:59In this letter, Rhonda talks about how she discovered discrepancies in the Booster Club's finances and how she went to
33:04Ken Purvis thinking that he would want her to investigate.
33:07Instead, he fired her.
33:10So she immediately became suspicious.
33:13So Ken Purvis was embezzling money from the Booster Club?
33:16And using the money to jet set to Versailles for croquembouche.
33:19At least that's what Rhonda thought.
33:20I mean, everybody knows you go to Paris for croquembouche, but...
33:23I just think the timing is suspicious, you know?
33:25I mean, she gets murdered right when she was about to blow the whistle.
33:29I mean, no wonder Rhonda wanted to skip town.
33:32Her boss was a crook.
33:34Her boyfriend was a cheat.
33:35I thought I'd gone yesterday.
33:37Well, Thomas did say she had trouble letting go of the past.
33:48Hold on.
33:50This photo shows the calendar on May.
33:53That's weird.
33:54We're only halfway through the month.
33:57And in your photos, I could have sworn...
34:03Yeah.
34:05In your picture, the calendar is on April.
34:08Wait, but how is that possible?
34:09Those photos are taken less than 20 minutes apart.
34:11I think I know who killed Rhonda.
34:17Mike, I'm at Rhonda's.
34:19I...
34:19Oh, I gotta go.
34:22Sorry to bother you. Can I come in?
34:23Uh, I'm afraid this isn't a good time.
34:25It'll just take a minute.
34:36I do think that Rhonda was killed because of the coins, but not by Jed Soya.
34:40But how can you be so certain?
34:41Because when I was on the tour with my sister, she was taking photos of the house.
34:46And she took a picture of this kitchen, and you could see that the calendar was on April.
34:51But now it's on May.
34:52I don't understand what you're implying, and what does a paper calendar have to do with anything?
34:55Well, there was no sign of forced entry.
34:57And when we were here, there were two takeout containers in the fridge.
35:01So I think Rhonda invited the killer in.
35:05I think they had planned to meet.
35:15Meet with Joe?
35:18Joanna?
35:19Yeah, I can show you that property some more on a phone.
35:22Okay, bye-bye.
35:28You killed Rhonda?
35:31It's not what you think.
35:32It's exactly what I think.
35:34You wanted to rip April off the calendar because Rhonda's note proves that you were at the scene at the
35:39time of her death.
35:41You told me that you only spoke to her on the phone the morning that she died, but that's not
35:45true.
35:45You came here that night.
35:46You two had dinner together.
35:50And then she told you about the coins.
35:52And she showed you where they were, didn't she?
35:54Just like she showed me.
35:56I only took a few of them.
35:57Just a few.
35:58I didn't even think she would miss them.
36:00But she caught you.
36:03She threatened to phone the police.
36:04You wouldn't listen to reason.
36:06Why?
36:08Because houses are sitting on the market for months, and you work on commission.
36:12That's why you didn't pay Jed Sawyer, right?
36:14Because when the time came, you couldn't afford it.
36:17My life would be ruined, Hannah.
36:19Who would let me show their house after I was branded a thief?
36:23I didn't want to hurt her.
36:25I didn't.
36:25But you did.
36:26Huh?
36:27Thomas.
36:28She trusted you.
36:29She considered you a friend.
36:30We both did.
36:31How could you do this?
36:33No, Thomas, no.
36:34You can't do this.
36:35Please.
36:35She killed my sister.
36:37I know, but you...
36:38Police!
36:39Thomas, put the gun down.
36:41Put it down.
36:45Put it down.
36:45Put it down.
36:48Step away.
36:49Keep your hands up.
36:50You, keep your hands where I can see them.
37:10Just going 10-15.
37:11I'm sorry.
37:13I don't know what came over me.
37:15Oh, it's okay.
37:17She was your sister, and you loved her.
37:19Thank you, Hannah.
37:21You make a strange first impression.
37:23I've heard that before.
37:25But I'm glad to have met you.
37:32Cutting it close.
37:33Traffic.
37:37Hey, when I told you to call me before you run headlong into danger,
37:40I should have specified a head start might be nice.
37:44Next time.
37:50I wanted to deliver this lemon meringue in person.
37:53Is this going to be a weekly order?
37:56Rhonda always wanted me to join her mahjong club.
37:59It's just a little way to honor my friend.
38:01I think that's so nice.
38:03Thanks, Hannah.
38:04For everything.
38:05You don't have to thank me.
38:06Who you are shouldn't be determined by a past mistake.
38:09Maybe not.
38:11We only get the second chances that other people give us.
38:28I tried to warn you about using Joanna as your realtor.
38:31You have good instincts, Andrea.
38:33So Joanna led us into that house knowing that her victim was right there inside.
38:37How dare she use us like that?
38:40Well, she wanted to control how the body was found.
38:42And she knew that if her name appeared on a forensics report,
38:46it would only be because she was showing Michelle the house.
38:48Hmm.
38:49So what about Ken Purvis?
38:51The sheriff is having Mike investigate him.
38:54And I am sure his comeuppance is on the way.
38:57Cracked your own case, Mother.
38:59Yeah, Mother.
38:59You really came through.
39:01Yeah.
39:01If you hadn't distracted Thomas while Hannah found that letter,
39:03we might never have gotten to the truth.
39:05Hmm.
39:06Well, Hannah, I've always suspected that your analytical mind
39:09is an inherited trait, honey.
39:12Oh, no.
39:13How is my little ballerina?
39:14And I love your ensemble today.
39:17Okay, so tell me all about my...
39:26Mike.
39:28Hi.
39:32Um, I just wanted to tell you that Joanna turned in the coins,
39:37and Thomas is very grateful.
39:42Wow.
39:43That's great.
39:47Hey, um, Hannah.
39:50Turn it around, Mother.
39:51Let me see.
39:53Turn the phone.
39:54Shh.
39:58Yeah?
40:00I miss you.
40:06I miss you, too.
40:09Can we just start again?
40:11Yeah.
40:12And just take things day by day.
40:15You know, you and me being...
40:18Us?
40:21Yeah.
40:23What do you think?
40:26I'm working on a new recipe, Mike.
40:30I could use an impartial judge.
40:33Well, I mean, I'm your guy.
40:36Thanks.
40:41Mistakes will be made.
40:44Souffles fall.
40:45Cakes burn.
40:46Custards break.
40:47But some recipes are always worth another try.
40:51Hmm.
40:52So it's part eclair, part danish.
40:55Kind of a profiterole thing.
40:57What do you think?
40:59Give me a minute.
41:01These things can't be rushed.
41:05Honestly?
41:07Yeah.
41:09Incredible.
41:11Thanks.
41:13It's the truth.
41:17I'm gonna have to look for it now.
41:18Yeah, please help yourself enjoy it.
41:21How long?
41:21Oh, Mike, I have a meeting to show you.
41:24Mm-hmm.
41:26Look who loves his new house.
41:30He's so happy.
41:32I know.
41:34That's actually the way he gets me when I come over and I come over the door.
41:38He knows that you need them.
41:40He knows that you need them.
