00:18Oh, why?
00:38Oh, why?
01:00Every baker knows that a good recipe is worth its weight in gold.
01:07The right recipe is a perfect fit, not something you can force into place.
01:17People say it's about using the best ingredients, and that's true too.
01:26But if you don't put in the right ingredient with the precise amount at the proper moment,
01:32it can turn into a mess.
01:34Or worse, become inedible.
01:39But when you get it just right, it's magic.
01:50Is it just me, or is it busier than usual today?
01:53Don't worry, Lisa.
01:55We have plenty of time to get through all of our customers, and we will still have time
01:58to plan your Herman family reunion.
02:01Well, if anyone can do it, it's you, Hannah.
02:03But feel free to throw some cold water on my face in case I start to freak out.
02:07Deal.
02:08All we have to do is pick a location, find the games for the kids, and choose the desserts
02:11that you want.
02:13Do you need that cold water?
02:14It's just so important to me that this will go perfect for my family.
02:17I don't want any, um, mishaps.
02:22Of course there are not going to be any.
02:24Promise?
02:24Yoo-hoo!
02:25Oh, hello.
02:27Uh, welcome to the cookie jar.
02:28May I help you?
02:29I would like to order four of your banana cream pies for delivery to my home on Saturday,
02:34please.
02:34Four banana cream pies for Miss Basco.
02:36Oh, Victoria.
02:38Please, darling.
02:39I know you have supported several of the Murrayville Players' performances.
02:44Oh, yes.
02:44I love going to the plays, and you're wonderful in them.
02:47Okay, so four pies.
02:49That will be $50.
02:50And the delivery fee is on me.
02:52Oh, what a generous spirit you have.
02:55So old-fashioned.
02:56I'm the same.
02:57I hope you take checks.
02:59Mother!
03:01Oh.
03:01Hello.
03:02Hello.
03:03Are you in the mood for something special today?
03:07Oh.
03:13Dolores.
03:14I almost didn't recognize you.
03:16Haven't been sleeping?
03:18Hmm.
03:19Never better.
03:21But, Victoria dear, you must be careful with that squinting.
03:25What a beautiful hair clip.
03:28Is that an antique?
03:30It was a gift.
03:31It's perfect for my next role.
03:33My character is a famous tango dancer, and we were just working on the choreography.
03:39I thought it was an odd perfume.
03:42Ahem.
03:43Well, here's your seat.
03:44Thank you so much.
03:45And 3 p.m. on Saturday for the delivery.
03:48Oh, that's perfect.
03:51If you didn't have two left feet, you might have been cast.
03:54What a...
03:57Wreck-a-lake!
04:00How dare she?
04:01What is going on between you two?
04:03She is never going to treat me as an equal with the Murrayville players.
04:07Well, isn't she the...
04:08She bought four pies from you.
04:10On purpose, Sam.
04:11I...
04:12She wanted me to know.
04:13You...
04:16She's famous for her parties.
04:19Oh.
04:19Mother, maybe it's just a party for her family or her friends.
04:22No, it has to be for the actors.
04:25And she is keeping me out intentionally because I've been scooping up some fabulous roles lately.
04:32Oh.
04:32Victoria Basco cannot stand a little competition.
04:36Ugh.
04:37Well, it must be as you've always said to me.
04:39Thank you so much.
04:40Success is the best revenge, isn't it?
04:43Banana bun cake.
04:44Perfect.
04:44I'll put it in the case.
04:45You should slice up my mother some chocolate banana bread.
04:48I'd love to...
04:51Nisa.
04:52Yes.
04:53Do I look a little tired to you?
04:58Dolores.
04:59You've never looked better.
05:01Really.
05:02Really.
05:03Really, darling.
05:05Duh.
05:08Hi.
05:18Hello.
05:18Oh, thank you for coming.
05:19Oh, well, what's with all the secrecy?
05:21Why didn't you just tell me on the phone?
05:23Because.
05:23I didn't know if you were with Mother.
05:24Well, why didn't you just ask?
05:26It's because.
05:27If I asked you if Mother was there and she heard that, she would know I was up to something
05:30and she wouldn't give up until she found out what it was.
05:32Hmm.
05:32And what about Lonnie and Michelle if they weren't on their cruise?
05:35Well, Michelle told me not to call her unless it was an emergency.
05:37Oh.
05:38I see how it is.
05:39I'm just kidding.
05:39I'm sorry.
05:40You're my favorite sister and you're an expert in all these things.
05:43I know.
05:44Especially about this.
05:45So, you can get comfortable, maybe put your feet up, get cozy.
05:51Okay.
05:51I made some tea.
05:52Your favorite tea.
05:52Would you like some tea?
05:53Yeah, I would love that thing.
05:55That's so nice.
05:56Isn't this lovely?
06:03Aw, when?
06:05Tonight.
06:06Tonight?
06:07What?
06:07Are you insane?
06:09Whoa.
06:09How could you just bring this on me?
06:10How much time do we have?
06:12Wait, don't answer that.
06:13Not enough.
06:14We need to get your hair done.
06:15We need to find you an outfit.
06:17Are we kidding?
06:17You don't have anything to wear.
06:19Oh no.
06:20Where are you going?
06:21Lamour on third.
06:23Oh.
06:23I'm an asshole.
06:24This is a nightmare.
06:25I think it's going to be nice.
06:26Hannah, this is no time for jokes.
06:28Upstairs.
06:29Now.
06:29Not with the teacup.
06:30Mother will kill you.
06:31Oh God.
06:34It's hot.
06:35It's so hot.
06:37Okay.
06:37So you have to tell me that you're going to put this in your purse and reapply every
06:40hour.
06:40Every hour.
06:41Okay.
06:42Okay.
06:42Yeah.
06:43And he's early.
06:44Yeah, he's so early.
06:45Stop it.
06:46Stop it.
06:49Stop it.
06:50In your hair.
06:51Okay.
06:52Take a breath.
06:52I'm taking it out.
06:53Okay.
06:53Good.
06:54There we go.
06:56I'm coming.
06:58Take a breath.
06:59I got it.
07:00What about this?
07:01Here, Patrick.
07:02Oh.
07:04Oh.
07:05We're good.
07:06We're good.
07:11Hi.
07:12Hi.
07:13You're early.
07:14Oh.
07:14Yeah.
07:15Well, you can thank the Marine Corps for that.
07:16If you are on time, you are late.
07:19I can't wait in the car though.
07:20No.
07:21No, of course not.
07:22That would be crazy.
07:23Okay.
07:24Uh, I got these for you.
07:25Oh.
07:27Yeah.
07:27They were all out of spelt and whole wheat, so I had to go with the roses.
07:32That's what you did there.
07:34Should we put them in water before we go?
07:36Yeah.
07:37Of course.
07:39Uh, uh, come inside and, um, I'll put them in water.
07:46Okay.
07:49Oh, this is a great place.
07:51Oh, thanks.
07:52It's very you.
07:53Yeah, it's perfect for me and Moysha.
07:56Is this Moysha right here?
07:58No.
07:59Um, that's just, uh, something I got at the Lake Eden College Art Fair.
08:03But Moysha likes it, don't you, Moysha?
08:05Oh, there he is.
08:06Hi.
08:07Did you come to say hello?
08:09Hmm.
08:26You look beautiful.
08:31Should we get going?
08:32Um, yes.
08:33Yes.
08:34Let's.
08:34That would be great.
08:35I wish we could bring you with us, pal.
08:40Here, I got it.
08:40I'll tell them all about it after.
08:46So just to be clear, that is one of your sisters in the pantry, right?
08:51Yeah.
08:53Is she gonna stay in there all night?
08:56No.
08:56No.
08:57Andrea will come out as soon as we leave.
08:58Oh, Andrea.
08:59Okay.
09:00Goodbye, Andrea.
09:02Have so much fun.
09:09I'm sleeping on the floor because I don't want to wake up ten minutes earlier and make
09:12my bed every morning.
09:13Well, hospital corners take time.
09:17No.
09:18Exactly.
09:19And the gamble paid off for a while.
09:21And I was wondering why everybody wasn't doing this.
09:23And then one night I found out.
09:25Oh, no.
09:26Yeah, the drill sergeant came in at 2 a.m. for a spot inspection, yelling.
09:30But, I mean, that's normal.
09:31In the Marine Corps, everything's on a level 10.
09:33Okay, but what did he say?
09:34He said, I guess you like sleeping on the floor, son.
09:36I guess you don't need this bed.
09:38What?
09:38And he took the bed, the rack, the mattress, the pillows, blanket, everything, and threw
09:42it out into the closet.
09:43Okay, well, I mean, that's not that bad, right?
09:46Uh, if it wasn't pouring rain outside.
09:48What?
09:49It got soaking wet.
09:51He said, get your butt out there immediately, bring everything back in, and that's what
09:54you're sleeping on tonight.
09:55Don't ever let me catch you sleeping on the floor again, son.
09:59That is a harsh way to learn that lesson.
10:01One you won't soon forget.
10:02Okay, so you survived boot camp.
10:05Barely.
10:05And then you were deployed overseas?
10:07Yeah, yeah.
10:08I spent a little bit of time kind of living everywhere.
10:11What about you?
10:12What's your story?
10:14Definitely not as interesting as yours.
10:16I don't know about that.
10:18Have you always lived here?
10:19I'm from Lake Eden.
10:20I went to college in Minneapolis.
10:23I was going to go into advertising, if you can believe that.
10:26Absolutely.
10:27You'd be great at that.
10:28You just changed your mind?
10:31My father became male.
10:33So I...
10:36So I moved back home.
10:37I've always loved baking, so I went to culinary school.
10:40And I did get to travel a little.
10:42I went to these specialty courses in Paris and Milan.
10:45Wow.
10:46I found my dream.
10:48That's incredible.
10:49Right?
10:50Not many people can say they love what they do.
10:52I know.
10:53You do too.
10:54I do.
10:57I love the justice system and the reencore.
10:59You expect me to pay for this meal after this?
11:02Every chair in this place squeaks and scrapes,
11:06made worse by the overly loud music I've asked four times to be turned down.
11:10I want to speak to your manager.
11:11Right now.
11:12Come on.
11:14Wow.
11:15That was intense.
11:16Jeez.
11:17You know, I have those little felt squares you put under chairs.
11:19It helps prevent the noise.
11:21Also, keeps my hardwood floors from getting scratched up.
11:25Honey, I didn't notice my chair making a sound when I sat down.
11:28Oh, I did.
11:29But I picked the chair up when I scooted the back so you wouldn't have to hear the scrape before
11:32you sat down.
11:33Oh.
11:34You want dessert?
11:36How about just coffee?
11:43Do you think Mother survives standing on stage next to Victoria Basco?
11:47I honestly don't know.
11:48But if they can avoid throwing rotten tomatoes at each other, I think we should take that as a success.
11:53That's a pretty little bar.
11:54I know.
11:55Oh, hey.
11:56Ooh.
11:56VIP tickets.
11:57Where do we get those?
11:58Let's go find out.
11:59What?
11:59No.
12:00Hi.
12:04I'm Andrea Swenson.
12:10Yes.
12:11We're her daughters.
12:12We've met before.
12:13Hannah from the Cookie Jar.
12:14Hi.
12:14And this is my sister, Andrea.
12:16Do you have an envelope for us?
12:19No.
12:20You have to be VIP status to get reserved seats.
12:23But you can get season tickets or packages of five shows.
12:26So they bought the packages?
12:29Who are they?
12:30Are they someone's family?
12:31You mean them?
12:32Yes.
12:33Oh, no family.
12:34That is part of Victoria's broad fan base.
12:37It's part of Victoria.
12:37People come from everywhere to watch her perform.
12:40Ugh.
12:40And they actually buy VIP tickets?
12:43Oh, yeah.
12:44She single-handedly keeps this place in the black.
12:46Wow.
12:47No idea.
12:48We rent the place out for other events, too.
12:50But with Victoria around, I don't even have to worry about that.
12:55Others could close her eyes.
12:57Yes.
12:58Let's get a drink.
12:59Okay.
12:59Oh.
13:00Popcorn?
13:00Yeah.
13:13Oh.
13:14Hi.
13:14I swear I'm late.
13:15Wow, you look beautiful.
13:16Oh, thank you.
13:19Has it started?
13:20Am I late?
13:21Oh, uh, it started about ten minutes ago.
13:24She'll know I'm late.
13:24She'll see I'm not in my seat.
13:25Oh, don't worry.
13:27I'm sure it's not that bad.
13:27You don't understand my aunt.
13:29Last time I was late, she threatened to cut me out of her will.
13:31I love my aunt, of course.
13:33I mean, maybe when she's gone, I'll have them change the name.
13:36The Victoria Theatre.
13:37That's nice, right?
13:38Yeah.
13:39Sure.
13:40The scene change.
13:44That's our cue, too.
13:48Okay, we don't have to commit to the location until you've had a chance to see it.
13:51No, Hannah, it sounds perfect.
13:53This time of year, you just can't depend on the weather,
13:54and these reunions are so important to my whole family.
13:57Oh, I'm sure they are.
13:58Hey, the cupcakes are cool, so will you grab the icing?
14:01Yes.
14:02And the Murrayville Community Hall has a break in their schedule between plays,
14:06so there shouldn't be any conflicts.
14:07Oh, perfect.
14:08Lisa, Lisa!
14:11Look at you!
14:12Jennifer.
14:14Hi.
14:15This is a surprise?
14:16What?
14:16No hug for your favorite cousin?
14:20Just, yes, let me put this down.
14:25Hi, I'm Hannah Swenson.
14:26Oh, I know all about you from Lisa!
14:32Aunt Sissy didn't tell me you were in town.
14:34Oh, I actually haven't seen them yet.
14:36Really?
14:36Are you excited for your family reunion?
14:38Of course.
14:38Can't wait.
14:39Been years since I've seen you, Lisa.
14:42You haven't changed a bit.
14:45Let's get you some coffee and a cookie on the house.
14:49How about one of those?
14:52Oh.
14:52Uh, of course.
14:54Yeah.
14:55It's fine.
14:56Help yourself.
14:58Oh, where are my manners?
15:00Thank you, Hannah.
15:01No problem.
15:05So, are you staying with your mom?
15:09Actually, I was hoping that I was staying with you.
15:12With me?
15:13Really?
15:13Yeah.
15:14It would be like old times when we used to have sleepovers
15:16and build forts in the backyard.
15:18Well, I am not sleeping in the backyard this time.
15:20You know what I mean.
15:21It'll be fun.
15:23Yeah.
15:24Yeah, it'll be fun.
15:26Can't wait.
15:55Woo!
15:56Woo!
16:26Oh
16:26Help you have to send an ambulance please as soon as possible
16:32I smell something burning. Oh, no
16:57Now what exactly did you touch here in this kitchen? Oh
17:01No, no, no. Just tell me right right the pan. I took that
17:07T-cloth and and moved it and took it off the burner. I mean the burner was on full
17:11But you say nothing was in it right? No, I mean you could tell the pan's never been used before
17:17It doesn't even have a ring for a watermark
17:19And you're sure the door was locked. Yes
17:21I'm totally sure that I would not have broken a window if the door was unlocked. Okay. Okay. I know
17:26guys do your thing
17:28Let's sweep this place top to bottom
17:30You did the right thing you had to try and save her. Yeah, thank you
17:36Uh, you broke that window?
17:38Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry if I ruined evidence
17:42Not at all. I'm actually, uh, very impressed
17:44I'm sure Eileen's team can get to the bottom of this with or without your fingerprints everywhere. Right, Sheriff?
17:50Yeah, of course. I believe we already have your prints on file, uh, breaking and entering at a junkyard if
17:56I recall
17:59Really?
18:01Just don't touch anything else. Hey, are you cut? Do you need to see a medic?
18:05No, I'm fine. I just wish
18:07Hey, it's okay. Okay, listen if anybody could have saved her, it would have been you, Hannah
18:13Norton, we need to talk
18:17Right, yeah, um, I gotta get back to work. Right. I'm so sorry. Uh, bye
18:27Well, Murphy picked a bad time to go for a cruise. You got another detective of mine to take over
18:32the case?
18:32No, Victoria was a hometown celebrity. I better handle this myself
18:36I don't want a bunch of bad press for letting some rookie get involved
18:39And I'm sure Victoria's family would be happy to know you're handling this. She has that one nephew, but he
18:43has been notified
18:45All right, let me show you this
19:02Oh, Hannah, I should have known when I heard all those sirens rushing past that you were involved
19:07Well, I had no idea that you and Victoria were practically neighbors
19:11Every time I say you're Victoria and what is the name of your neighbor? Oh, Jacob Tesling
19:15Right, Mr. Tesling. Always looking for an excuse to see who's arriving in the neighborhood. Oh
19:21Really? Well, I don't think that Victoria was caught off guard by a thief
19:26Or anything like that. I think she opened the door to the killer. Oh, that's horrible. Why would you think
19:32that, Hannah?
19:32She had her fine china out. Two mugs, both filled. But didn't you say she was in a dressing gown?
19:38I don't know if it was a dressing gown. What do they call them? The things, the flowy things you
19:41wear in the morning
19:42Oh, honey, that's not a robe. That's a captain
19:45Well, whatever you call it. And she was strangled by the belt?
19:48No, it was with her scarf. It was right there next to her
19:51Well, at least that tells us that the killer did not bring their own murder weapon
19:55Spontaneous crime?
19:56Maybe the killer just wanted to make sure they didn't leave any evidence behind. Very likely that the killing happened
20:01in the heat of the moment
20:02Victoria had that effect on people. Oh
20:05Andrea, please. I need some cookies, honey. It's brain food. Help me think. Poor Smother. I will be right. Thank
20:11you
20:11Oh, and before I forget, she was in the kitchen when it happened. Victoria was cooking something
20:17Maybe she was trying to get ready for the party she was throwing tonight
20:20It's highly unlikely
20:22Victoria was known as the diva of delivery. In fact, Tessling, our neighbor, always used to complain that
20:28all the delivery drivers every night would knock on his door instead of trying to find her address
20:33Thank you, Andrea
20:34Don't you see, so
20:35How are we gonna find out what that party was all about?
20:38That party is our first big lead
20:41Well, you should ask the actors if they were invited to the party
20:45What?
20:45And I can't stop thinking about that pan. It was smoking when I got there
20:48It would have been bad for the whole neighborhood
20:50Huh
20:51Well, maybe that's it. Maybe it wasn't Victoria. Maybe it was the killer trying to start a fire
20:55You know to cover his tracks. It's a very good way to cover one's tracks
21:04I don't have any new details in this article
21:11Hello? Hey, how are you?
21:14Hi, Chad
21:16You know, just thinking about how if I left the bakery five minutes earlier, I might have been there in
21:20time to save her
21:21Yeah, but you also might have put yourself in danger if you did that
21:24I know
21:24You're right
21:26Were you there with your sister?
21:55No, she offered, but I kind of wanted to be alone
21:57No, I just, um
22:00You know, want to hear your voice, see how you were
22:05Oh
22:07And I can hear you're doing great, so I should, uh, you know, get back at it
22:13Okay
22:15I'll see you tomorrow though, huh?
22:17I'll see you tomorrow
22:18Goodnight
22:21Did you hear that?
22:23He was calling a check on me
22:47Dolores
22:47Oh
22:48Are you looking for something?
22:49Oh, no, just a little lost
22:52Well, have you heard the terrible news?
22:54Oh, my yes
22:55I read about it in the paper this morning
22:58You must just be devastated and all the actors
23:00I can't even imagine what you're going through
23:03Thank you, Tanya, for your compassion
23:06This will be difficult for us, we Mariville players
23:10To weather this storm
23:11Of course
23:12Well, let me know if there's anything I can do
23:15Yes
23:15Well, uh, actually, uh
23:18Tanya, you know everything that goes on here
23:21Was Victoria on bad terms with anyone?
23:25Besides you?
23:29Ours was just a classic rivalry between actresses
23:33Crawford never really wanted to hurt Betty Davis, you know
23:36Well, I can't imagine it
23:37I mean, everyone loved her
23:39Did you see the latest reviews?
23:40This show was going to be another sellout
23:42Yeah
23:43I know
23:45Yeah
23:47Well, uh, if you think of anything, please just let me know
24:12Sheriff
24:13Sheriff
24:15Oh
24:16Uh, uh, what a surprise
24:20Uh, Miss Swenson, I am sorry to interrupt at a bad time, but I need to ask you a few
24:25questions
24:25Oh, oh, of course
24:26Uh, uh, where are my manners?
24:29Uh, please, uh, please, uh, come on in and pull the door shut, will you?
24:32May I offer you, uh, uh, some coffee or perhaps a cookie?
24:37They're both from the cookie jar
24:39Uh, no, ma'am, thank you
24:40Uh, I am here on a professional matter
24:43Oh, I knew it
24:46Oh, I knew it
24:47Uh, I am so glad to be of service
24:50Uh, excuse me?
24:51Uh, however my little detective agency can help
24:54We are here
24:56Ready for duty
24:59Oh, uh
25:00Uh, actually, I am not quite ready
25:02Now, I need to get gussied up again, but I am so fast
25:05I'll be ready lickety-split
25:07No, you look beautiful
25:08Uh, how long have you known Victoria Basco?
25:12Oh, who can keep track of the years
25:15Try
25:17Okay, uh, since I moved to this neighborhood, eight years, maybe ten
25:22And would you say you and Miss Basco got along well?
25:25Well, we never even really knew each other until I joined the Murrayville Players
25:30The truth is, Victoria did not like sharing the spotlight
25:35But at our core, we loved each other as all actors do
25:39Part of the trials and tribulations of being in the theater, you might say
25:45Is there something specific I could help you with?
25:52I'm going to ask you not to leave town, Miss Swenson
25:56Oh, okay, why?
25:58You're a person of interest in the death of Victoria Basco
26:09How could Sheriff Ealing just accuse you like that?
26:12He has to know you're not capable of killing anyone
26:15Well, everyone has their limits, darling
26:19But if he thinks that he's going to scare me away from this case, he's got another thing coming
26:24Well, if he told you not to investigate, you probably shouldn't
26:29A2, brute A
26:31I have to side with mother, Hannah
26:33You're not really in the best position to suggest anybody else stay out of it
26:37All right, all right, I'm in
26:40So where do we start?
26:41First, we have to establish who Victoria was closest to
26:45We met her nephew, Roger, at one of your performances
26:48What was it like?
26:50It was kind of odd, actually
26:51We had just met him, but Joy is still on stage performing
26:54But already he was talking about how he was going to spend her money when he inherited it
26:58Wait, we?
27:00Chad and me
27:02Really?
27:03Yeah, yeah, he makes your plays, mother, I told you that
27:06And is there anything else you want to reveal to me, Hannah Louise?
27:12You told her
27:13Oh, I didn't want to tell her, she tricked me
27:15No, you always do this
27:16I always confide in you
27:18It's always just
27:18All right, girls, girls, stop
27:21Hannah, this is no time to go into your escapades
27:25We need to get down to business
27:26Now come on
27:28All right, I will investigate Roger
27:30All right, and I will begin a hell of an investigation
27:34A what?
27:35A fishing net
27:36I don't get it
27:38Information gathering
27:41Must I explain everything?
27:42Oh, well, that one
27:44I mean, it was just
27:45You want to do something
27:47I won't even show enough back till next week
27:49Me?
27:49I thought this was a we
27:52Okay, I got peanut butter for Blake
27:54Got a double chocolate for Roxanne
27:57And, um, hi
27:59Do you know everyone's favorite cookie?
28:01Everyone except you that I'm working on
28:06Double chocolate
28:07I'm glad you stopped by
28:09Yeah, I can't believe everyone's here working on a sundae
28:11Not just you
28:12I know, one of my colleagues, another prosecutor
28:14Had to take an unexpected leave of absence
28:17So
28:17Ah
28:19As you can see, I have a few new cases on my desk
28:22Oh, wow
28:23Yeah, that's a lot
28:25Anything interesting I might want to watch in court?
28:28Well, hopefully Lucas will be back before these go to trial
28:30But I'll let you know
28:32So I want to talk to you about the Victoria Basco case
28:41This is not new information, right?
28:43This is something you've already told Healing
28:44Yes, yes, I told Sheriff Healing everything
28:47Okay, good
28:48Shoot
28:49The pan on the stovetop
28:51The one that was smoking
28:52Could have caused a fire
28:54Exactly
28:55But I was wondering
28:55What if it wasn't the killer
28:57Trying to cover his tracks by starting a fire?
29:00What if it was Victoria herself?
29:03Then why would you think that?
29:04Maybe
29:05She was trying to create a distraction
29:07It's an interesting theory
29:09It would be a smart way to signal for help
29:11By setting off the smoke alarm
29:12Right, exactly
29:14Okay
29:15And where are you going with this?
29:16Because it could be argued in court that it was an accident
29:18Plenty of people
29:20They forget to turn the burners on their stove off all the time
29:22Right
29:24But either way
29:25It just proves that there was someone alive inside that house right before I got there
29:30The pan was smoking
29:31It wasn't burnt yet
29:32Which means it could only have been five minutes, ten minutes tops
29:35And that burner was on full blast
29:37So in your theory it was either Victoria signaling for help
29:41Or it was the killer trying to start a fire
29:43Right, either way it happened only minutes before I arrived to deliver those pies
29:48I do need your testimony and the forensic evidence from the burning pan to establish a timeline during the trial
29:54We just have to find the right suspect for you to take the trial
29:58Ealing needs to find?
29:59Is that what you meant to say?
30:02How did that go, by the way, given your statement?
30:04It was fine
30:04I mean, I told him everything I could remember, which unfortunately isn't very much
30:08All right, just keep thinking about it
30:11Were there any cars in the parking lot?
30:13Were there any other people there, even if you thought they might have the right to be there?
30:16Like a gardener or maybe a, I don't know, electrician, painter?
30:20You know about my mother, don't you?
30:25Yeah
30:29Ealing said that he learned that she and Miss Basco were not on the best of terms
30:36My mother didn't do anything to hurt Victoria Basco and I am going to prove it
30:41Okay
30:44Look, just keep going over the details of that day, all right?
30:48Even if you don't think they're important, they might be important to the investigation
30:50And anything that you find out, you tell Ealing
30:57Okay, I'm going to get back to work
30:59Um, right, of course
31:01Thanks for taking the time
31:04Thank you for stopping by and feeding my staff
31:06Yeah, sure
31:13Oh
31:19Snickerdoodle?
31:22It's worth a shot
31:51Dolores, there's no time for all hot flesh
32:04What's that?
32:05Oh
32:05Oh
32:09Not contagious
32:10You're not even supposed to be up here
32:11Oh, so sorry, sir
32:13I will, uh
32:14I will just, uh, skedaddle on down to the dressing rooms then and just, uh, uh, no worries
32:21I'll, uh, be out of your hair very soon
32:25Jackson
32:26Jackson, let's reset this table to the stage
32:30Oh
32:43Our dressing room is so much better than mine
32:52All right, Victoria
32:53So what secrets are you hiding in here?
33:02Nice touch

33:56Sorry, I scared ya
33:57No, you're not
33:59So did you ever get any time off, or what?
34:01Well, yeah, actually, Herb and I were waiting around for you last night
34:03You said you were joining us at the movies
34:06Oh, right
34:07Yeah, I forgot
34:09I'm sorry, Wisa
34:10I really did forget
34:11It's just there's been a lot going on for me since I got back
34:14Yeah, I've noticed
34:15I just really hope you're not getting yourself involved in anything that's
34:19Dangerous
34:19I was gonna say illegal
34:22Oh, please
34:24You always wear such a worry wart
34:26I'm out
34:27Bye
34:33Wow, this backstage area is great
34:36I mean, I could use it to set up my kitchen area
34:38Oh, this place is very versatile
34:39So if you need extra space, just let me know
34:41Yeah, great
34:42Thank you
34:46Oh, and we have a crew that can help clean up during the event if that's useful to you
34:49Um, yeah, uh, I think that would, uh, uh, really be useful to me
34:55Uh, uh, sorry, my nose is just
35:00Uh, reunion, uh, uh, yeah, major cleanup at reunions, messy people
35:06Um, uh, uh, uh, this place is just so
35:09How did he know it was a reunion?
35:10Oh, he must have heard us talking about it
35:13This place is so great
35:14And all this work you've done on the theater
35:16Did you originally want to be an actor?
35:18Oh, me?
35:19No, no, I enjoy bringing the shows to life, but I could never be on stage
35:23Oh, me neither
35:25Right, and I'm so sorry for what you're going through
35:27What everyone must be feeling right now
35:29How long did you know Victoria?
35:31Well, I don't think anyone really knew Victoria
35:34She was very mysterious, always disappearing after rehearsal
35:38Really?
35:40Um, she has a nephew, right, Roger?
35:43He came to every performance, very devoted
35:45Yeah, yeah, I met him at her last performance here
35:48He told me he had big ideas for this place
35:51Yeah, he said that he wanted to be a patron of the theater
35:56Uh, I'm sorry, I, I really have to get back to work
35:59Is there anything else that you want to see?
36:02Any measurements?
36:03Uh, no, no, this has been great
36:05I really appreciate your time
36:07Thank you
36:10Mother
36:15Sheriff, hi
36:18No
36:19No what?
36:20No, I'm not going to give you any updates on the case
36:23Well, I'm here to update you, actually
36:28All right, what is it?
36:34I learned more about Roger, Victoria's nephew
36:37And I think he has a motive to want her gone
36:40Do you remember anything else from that thing?
36:42Is there anything else you'd like to add to your statement?
36:44No, I haven't been able to think of anything
36:46Don't give up
36:48Wait, what about my mother?
36:50What about her?
36:52Well, you don't honestly believe that my mother murdered Victoria Basco
36:56I have witness statements
36:58Who?
36:59I'm not going to tell you that
37:00But just understand that the feud between them was much bigger than she claimed it was
37:06Okay
37:07Even if it was, what, what does that prove?
37:11It shows Dolores had means, motive, and opportunity
37:15She's a suspect
37:44What do you think you're doing?
37:46No, nothing
37:48No, I mean, I was, I was, I was just looking
37:51Yeah, well, we've had nothing but look at those around here since it happened
37:53Why don't you just get out of here?
37:56I, I think I just got off on the wrong foot here
37:58I'm Hannah Swenson, I'm the one who found Ms. Basco
38:01Oh, oh, oh, you did, huh?
38:03Yeah, I was delivering her banana cream pies
38:06Oh, well, it's probably for one of her parties
38:08She was always making noise
38:09She always had a, a group of people hanging around
38:12She was like, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
38:12oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
38:12oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
38:12oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
38:12oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
38:14oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
