00:02Previously on Hudson and Rex.
00:04Well, it's five days to Christmas, St. John's.
00:07Laura, I took an earlier flight and wanted to surprise you.
00:09Merry Christmas.
00:11I'm not sure quite St. John's can compete with my mother's usual big city festive season.
00:16But I'm taking her to see that marble sculpture at the cathedral.
00:18No, the Veiled Madonna.
00:20It only comes out at this time of year.
00:22And as an art expert, your mother's going to absolutely love it.
00:24I know that man.
00:25He'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?
00:32He used the name Bob Ladron.
00:34Okay, mystery man laundering millions of dollars of his own money.
00:37Who is this Bob?
00:38He's a ghost.
00:41Why choose some random contractor in Halifax?
00:44I know how it might look suddenly leaving Halifax.
00:46You have to admit the timing's a little suspicious.
00:48I need to see in that box.
00:50Please don't tell my family.
00:52They don't know anything about this.
00:53Rex, meet Holly.
00:55Holly, meet?
00:56Yeah.
00:57I just wanted to give Cooper a magical Christmas before I go to prison.
01:00Nobody move!
01:02Take it easy.
01:02Easy, Rex.
01:03Just give me the box!
01:13Rex!
01:14All units be on the lookout for a black pickup truck, make and model unknown.
01:18Canine officer last seen in an open cargo bed.
01:21Driver is armed and dangerous.
01:23We've got to find Rex and Holly before Christmas.
01:43Matthew survived the shooting, but it's still unconscious.
01:46And there's no sign of the shooter.
01:48I've called in every available officer, but they may have already left the city.
01:51Man, disappeared into the maze of back roads in central Newfoundland.
01:54Mark, we're going to find him.
01:55Do we have the cell footage that Matthew's wife was recording when her husband was shot?
01:58Jesse's pulling it up right now.
02:00Right.
02:00Here's the exact moment that the shooter enters the Tibbs Eve party.
02:04Nobody move!
02:05You really think this was a targeted hit?
02:07Absolutely.
02:08See how he zeroes in on Matthew immediately, demands the president in his arms, and then
02:13shoots him, even though he's putting up no resistance.
02:15I don't think he had any idea what was in that box or cared.
02:18He certainly didn't know it was an innocent puppy.
02:20So do we think this guy just dressed up like the Mummer gang to lay the blame for the shooting
02:23on them?
02:24Not knowing that we had Santa Pants here in custody?
02:26But if that's true, then who sent the hitman to take care of Matthew?
02:29Well, everything points towards the international criminal that Matthew claims tricked him into
02:33committing a crime, the elusive Bob.
02:36We've only got a picture at the back of his head, so it's time to take a deeper look at
02:39our family man from Halifax.
02:41He may not be as innocent as he looks.
02:43All right.
02:45I'll head back to the inn, I'll collect his electronics, and check in with Sarah.
02:48I'll drop by the hospital.
02:50Maybe Matthew's wife knows more than she's saying.
02:52Yeah, we'll have helicopters in the air at first light looking for the shooter.
02:56We're going to find Rex.
02:58I know he can take care of himself, Joe.
03:02I'm worried of the risks that Rex might take if he's in protective mode.
03:04I mean, he is not going to let anything happen to that puppy.
03:27We're going to have to take care of him.
03:36We're going to have to take care of himself, Joe.
03:38So having the bullet will help track the shooter?
03:41Yeah. Examining the unique striations and pressed into the projectile from the barrel
03:45could help determine if the weapon was used in previous crime.
03:49You know, all these years I never worried about you and your work.
03:52But now that I see how dangerous it is, I...
03:55Mom, you don't need to be concerned.
03:57Oh, that's no longer an option, sweetheart.
03:59But I've never been more proud either.
04:06I think Matthew's laptop could help us track down Rex and the shooter.
04:10Poor little Holly, too. I feel so sorry for Cooper.
04:14Look, I'm sorry your whole inn has turned into a crime scene on Christmas.
04:19So it brought us back together.
04:23I actually have a confession to make.
04:24Yeah?
04:25Remember how I sat behind you in medieval history?
04:28Uh-huh.
04:29I prefer the Renaissance era.
04:32I just hoped we'd become friends.
04:35There's no crime in that.
04:44Hey.
04:46He's still unconscious. Nothing's changed.
04:49Okay.
04:49I need to talk to Matthew's wife, Dawn.
04:52I offered to represent her as the wife of an existing client.
04:57Of course you did.
04:59We can talk out here.
05:01Yeah, sure.
05:03Dawn, Mark may have to ask you some difficult questions.
05:08But why question me?
05:10Shouldn't you be out there looking for this mummer gang?
05:12We believe your husband may have been targeted, Dawn.
05:15But the crime is only staged to look like the mummer robberies.
05:18You think someone meant to kill Matthew?
05:24Do you know why anyone might want to harm your husband?
05:27Could it have something to do with, uh, this man?
05:30Bob?
05:31The criminal Matthew claims he only met once.
05:35I would advise you to be forthcoming.
05:37The shooter is still out there.
05:40You need to protect your family.
05:42I...
05:43Matthew is a good man.
05:44He's a good husband and a good father.
05:48But I questioned his reasons for the sudden trip to St. John's.
05:52You think he might have come here and meet with Bob?
05:54We have reason to believe that he's also in St. John's.
05:57I don't know.
05:58But there were mysterious phone calls before and after we got here.
06:03Okay.
06:05I confronted him, but the surprised puppy seemed to explain all that.
06:15What?
06:16The night before last, I woke up in the night and Matthew was gone.
06:20I looked all over the inn, but...
06:24He came back about an hour later.
06:27How did he explain his absence?
06:29He said he just went out for a walk.
06:31Look at the Christmas lights.
06:33Soaking in the last of his freedom.
06:36But you didn't believe it?
06:37I know Matthew would never do anything that might harm me and Cooper.
06:42But I think he's in trouble.
06:45And then it's getting worse.
06:47Is my dad gonna wake up soon?
06:52Hom.
06:53He's gonna give me a puppy for Christmas.
06:56You know about Hom?
06:57I saw her, but now she's gone.
07:00Hom.
07:01We're gonna do everything we can to set this right.
07:04Okay, Cooper?
07:05Promise?
07:06Mm-hmm.
07:07My partner Rex is also on the job.
07:14It's okay.
07:15It's gonna be okay.
07:17It's gonna be okay.
07:17I promise.
07:25Copy that search one.
07:26Starting the first leg of the Great Search.
07:45Bob.
07:46All set.
07:47Everything went as planned.
07:49Is that so?
07:50Well, I've got news for you, Oliver.
07:52What?
07:53He's still alive.
07:54Listen.
07:55Ah.
07:56Look, I'm sorry.
07:57Wait, I saw that guy go down.
07:58Just get to the rendezvous spot and meet me there.
08:00And Oliver, dump whatever you took at the end.
08:02I don't want anything connected to that botched shooting.
08:04Okay.
08:05Yeah.
08:05Will do.
08:44I don't want to know.
08:45Oh, I don't want to know.
08:47Oh, my gosh.
08:48Oh, my gosh.
08:50Oh, my gosh.
08:51Oh, my gosh.
08:53Oh, my gosh.
09:01Oh, my gosh.
09:22What have we got?
09:23We've got helicopters searching for wrecks in the shooter, setting up a grid, Joe's supervising.
09:27I ran the bullet stations through the system, but no matches in the Canadian database.
09:31I'm going international.
09:32Have we tracked Matthew's movements the night that he left the inn?
09:34Through cell phone and CCTV.
09:37I pick him up intermittently.
09:38He head south from the inn, and I lose him in the park.
09:42But then I pick him up again on the other side.
09:45There.
09:46But now he's got some kind of crate?
09:48And where is he going with it?
09:50Straight uphill.
09:51To the cathedral?
09:52Where he has a key to the underground vaults.
09:55Why would he be sneaking into the cathedral in the dead of night?
09:59Because he plans to bring something back out.
10:00You mean steal from the church?
10:02It could be, because 15 minutes later, he leaves with the crate.
10:06If Matthew did steal something, what is it?
10:10Remember how I said I was taking my mom to see the statue they put on display for Christmas?
10:14Yeah.
10:15The veil of Madonna.
10:16The veil of Madonna.
10:17The veil of Madonna.
10:18Okay, a marble sculpture by Italian artist Giovanni Strasa primarily resides at the presentation convent.
10:24But is transferred to the cathedral for Christmas services.
10:27So, we think that Bob got Matthew to steal the Madonna, and then he tried to have Matthew kill to
10:32cover his tracks.
10:33If we're right, we're a step closer to catching these guys and getting Rex home for Christmas.
11:17Do you think Bob got Matthew to steal the veil of Madonna from the cathedral?
11:20Mark's on his way there now to confirm.
11:21If the mayor was enraged by the Mummer gang, she's going to be absolutely nuclear over this one.
11:25Wait, so Bob may be a high-end art thief?
11:27Well, makes sense.
11:29He steals the art, sells it, then needs to launder the proceeds.
11:31Well, we need to get an idea and track this Bob down.
11:33Jesse, send me a list of suspected art thieves who are still at large.
11:36I'll get my mom to reach out to other high-end designers.
11:38You think an interior designer would know an art thief?
11:40Well, the art most likely ends up decorating wealthy mansions.
11:43Designers like to talk.
11:44I couldn't track Matthew's return from the cathedral.
11:46He took a different route.
11:47Now, uniforms, they comb the park.
11:49I'll get them to search the inn for that lost crate.
11:53I'm guessing you would have told us if there was any sign of Rex out there.
12:20I'm guessing you would have told us if there was any sign of Rex out there.
12:27I'm guessing you would have told us if there was any sign of Rex out there.
13:07We discovered the door to the vaults unlocked this morning,
13:10but didn't imagine that someone might have stolen the veiled Madonna.
13:13She's been venerated in this parish for generations.
13:16Where and what exactly are the vaults?
13:18Old tunnels that connect various buildings on the ground.
13:22It's a maze down there.
13:23Now, I understand the statue resides at the convent, for the most part.
13:27It's here only a few days leading up to Christmas Eve.
13:29I suspect a thief may have been aware of this.
13:31Would anyone outside of the cathedral have access to the vaults?
13:34There's an entranceway on the grounds, but the key's been lost for years.
13:38Does your name Matthew Flanagan mean anything to you?
13:40Not that I know of.
13:42There was a Malcolm Flanagan employed here for decades.
13:45He was the groundskeeper.
13:47Might have had a grandson named Matt.
13:50I'll be sure to look into that.
13:52The statue is supposed to be under here.
13:55I think you better brace yourself, Father.
14:12She's here.
14:15I don't understand.
14:16Neither do I.
14:17But I think I know who might be able to help.
14:31You're looking for the wooden crate that Matthew had?
14:34Yeah, yeah.
14:34It's a bit bigger than a bread box.
14:37I always found that phrase odd.
14:38Bread box.
14:39Well, I mean, it's from a popular 1950s game show.
14:42Sort of like 20 questions.
14:43You know, asking is it bigger than a bread box sort of became a running gag.
14:48Because bread boxes, they were ubiquitous in kitchens at the time.
14:50And I realize now that I'm just rambling so much.
14:53Don't be sorry.
14:55I like your explanations.
14:57You know, I'm sorry all this has ruined your first holiday season in St. John's.
15:04I'm trying not to think about it too much.
15:06But everyone else is going through so much worse.
15:08Yeah, but you're allowed to feel sad, too.
15:16Hey.
15:18I have a question for you.
15:21Yeah.
15:25Would you like to come to my Christmas movie marathon?
15:29Only if you're showing It's a Wonderful Life.
15:31It's my favorite.
15:33Really?
15:33I am showing that.
15:35Okay.
15:36I think an angel just got away.
15:38And?
15:40Okay.
15:41I'm, uh, I'm going to go back to work.
15:43Yeah.
15:43Help find that mystery wooden crate.
15:46Oh, this is yours, actually.
15:47Okay.
15:48Okay.
16:04Bye-bye.
16:06Bye-bye.
16:07Bye.
16:16Bye-bye.
16:20Bye-bye.
16:38Who's there?
16:40Bob?
17:09Bob, I'm here.
17:10All set.
17:11Everything tying me to the Mummers is a counter for.
17:14I'm on my way to collect the merchandise, and I wouldn't mess up again if I were you.
17:28So, you have some mug shots you want me to look at?
17:32Suspected art thieves.
17:33Oh.
17:34Mostly surveillance photos.
17:37Well, I have a very wide circle of friends, Sarah, but I don't think it includes out-and-out thieves.
17:45Here.
17:47Take your time.
17:48It can be difficult to recognize someone out of context, and some of these shots are years old.
17:53You just have to swipe up.
17:57Huh.
17:59Nobody looks particularly familiar.
18:02But dubious characters in high-end art do tend to go hand-in-hand.
18:06Of course, I'm always very careful when purchasing.
18:09Make sure that there's a clear chain of title.
18:11I remember being a little girl and going to the charity auctions with you at Christmas.
18:15Watching you outbid everyone else, it was very exciting.
18:18Oh, I'm glad.
18:21I'm sorry I wasn't home with you more, though.
18:23Don't be.
18:24Having a successful, talented mom was great inspiration.
18:29Well, I wish I could be more help here, but...
18:33Wait.
18:34Wait, this man.
18:37I think he used to sell high-end art in London decades ago.
18:41Could be he was stealing that art himself.
18:43What was his name?
18:44Robert.
18:46Robert Chisholm.
18:47Last I heard, he moved to Monaco, and that was years ago.
18:51Mark, hey.
18:53I think we may have an idea on Bob.
18:54Well, that's great.
18:55Fill me in when you bring the forensics team to the cathedral.
18:58It'd be great if Paige came, too.
19:01I have something I need her to look at.
19:02Okay.
19:03Okay.
19:23So Bob really is an international art thief.
19:26Just to come back to me, confirm that Malcolm Flanagan was Matthew's grandfather.
19:30Presumably showed him a secret way into the cathedral as a boy.
19:34Well, you really think this might be a fake?
19:36I don't think about him. What better way for Bob to cover his tracks?
19:40Swap out the real statue for a fake so no one notices it's even gone.
19:44Well, that's what I want your mother to determine.
19:46It's right in here, safe and sound.
20:03Well, I've reached a conclusion. I have no doubt at all.
20:07This is the real Veil of Madonna. And it's priceless.
20:12This is the fake.
20:14What?
20:15Yeah, no, I picked it up in the park just like you said.
20:18The grain in the marble. It's not right.
20:20This is the one Matthew was supposed to leave behind at the cathedral.
20:23And if I don't deliver the real one to the Byron Boxing Day,
20:29I'm a dead man.
20:31And so are you.
20:33Are you sure, Mom?
20:35Yes, I'm quite certain.
20:36You can't get this kind of Carrara marble anymore.
20:39So what was Matthew doing here in the middle of the night?
20:41Saying a Christmas prayer?
20:44Laura.
20:45Mark, Matthew's awake and he's trying to leave the hospital.
20:48I'm on my way. Come on, Rice.
20:55We'll find him.
21:02Yeah, Matthew's not going anywhere.
21:04The hospital has no right to keep him.
21:07He can leave against medical advice.
21:09If I have anything to do with it.
21:12Matthew, are you sure this is a good idea?
21:14I'm fine.
21:14Don, I just want to get us home to Halifax.
21:16Not before you asked a few questions, Matthew.
21:18About your late night trip to the cathedral.
21:21You know about that?
21:22Um, why don't you two come wait in the other room?
21:26Come on.
21:28Tell me everything, Matthew.
21:30Why you really came to St. John's.
21:32Why you went to the cathedral in the middle of the night
21:34and your real relationship to Bob.
21:36I'm sorry, Matthew, but as your attorney,
21:39I would advise you to remain silent.
21:40Excuse me?
21:41I don't think my client should say anything more
21:43until we've had a chance to debrief.
21:45You know we need to find Bob and Rex.
21:47I know, and it kills me to be the one to get in the way of that,
21:50but I have a client and his family to protect.
21:53As a lawyer, I took an oath, Mark.
21:55And as a police officer, I took one too.
21:57Matthew Flanagan, you're under arrest for breaking and entering.
21:59Give me your hands.
21:59It's all right, I'll come willingly.
22:02I have to come clean, Laura, about everything.
22:04But promise you will protect my family,
22:07no matter what happens to me.
22:09I'll have an officer take them back to the inn
22:11where they'll be safe.
22:11Okay, let's go.
22:19Because of your incompetence,
22:20I have to go and steal the real Madonna
22:22and find a way into that cathedral myself.
22:25What if Matthew talked?
22:26He could be crawling with cops by now.
22:28You better hope he hasn't.
22:30See, that's why I don't let anybody see my face.
22:33And live.
22:42Search one, still no sign of a black pickup heading further north.
23:04Hey.
23:07I'm on my way to a briefing.
23:09Seeing what additional measures we can implement in the search.
23:12Yeah, Laura's having a debrief with Matthew.
23:15Maybe he can give us some idea of where to look.
23:18Right.
23:21It's not exactly the kind of holiday any of us are planning on, is it?
23:25No, not exactly.
23:27Yeah.
23:29You know, my mother,
23:31she had it harder than me growing up.
23:33The struggle was real.
23:35Christmas was rough.
23:36Growing up without anyone or anything.
23:41But she always had hope in her heart.
23:45No matter what.
23:47She always brought that with her.
23:49And she didn't wait for it to come.
23:54Don't be afraid to hope, Mark.
23:57Yeah.
23:58Thanks, Joe.
24:07Matthew's ready to be interviewed.
24:10Just to be clear about the evidence we have against your client,
24:13we have surveillance footage of Matthew heading into the cathedral at night.
24:20We have cell phone records showing multiple calls to an international burner phone.
24:26Bob's, perhaps.
24:27And it turns out that your client's grandfather, who he visited as a boy,
24:31was a groundskeeper at the church who would have known the vaults beneath like the back of his hand.
24:37Thank you for being so forthcoming, detective.
24:42Before you begin questioning, my client has a statement to make.
24:46I'm all ears.
24:50I'd just like to say that everything that I told Laura and the judge in Halifax is true.
24:56I only met Bob once.
24:58And he tricked me into breaking the law for him.
25:01When did you learn that he was an art thief?
25:06Two weeks ago, he contacted me out of nowhere and threatened me.
25:12Threatened you how?
25:14He said I had to do a job for him or my family would be in danger once I start
25:19my prison sentence.
25:21What was the job?
25:23To come to St. John's and steal the veiled Madonna and swap it out for a fake.
25:30I'm not sure I understand we've had an art expert examine the veiled Madonna at the cathedral.
25:37It's the real one.
25:40I did everything I was told until the last minute.
25:43I entered the church through the vaults, navigated in the way my grandfather taught me.
25:47But when it came to swapping the statue, I just froze.
25:54I mean, what kind of husband and father had I become?
26:00Stealing from a church at Christmas.
26:11And then I realized how perfect the replica looked.
26:16And I decided to return the fake to the drop spot.
26:19You double-crossed an international criminal and then stuck around for a Tibbs Eve party?
26:24The most suspicious thing I could do was run.
26:27And Bob could have just as easily tracked me down in Halifax.
26:32The replica looked so perfect I thought he would just sell it and no one would know the difference.
26:36And at no point did you think you should inform the police instead or you're a lawyer.
26:43I was frightened for Don and Cooper.
26:47And I guess you didn't know that the last part of Bob's plan was to silence you forever.
26:57But now I know none of us will be safe until he is behind bars.
27:03Sorry to interrupt.
27:04A uniform just found Holly's blanket on an off-grid road.
27:12A helicopter's standing by to take you to the location.
27:15Okay.
27:15I'll update the mayor.
27:17Good luck.
27:18Yeah, well I don't need luck, Joe.
27:19I've, uh...
27:21I've got hope.
27:24Be careful out there.
27:26I had you all home safe and sound for Christmas.
27:33Hope there's room in the chopper.
27:36For sure.
27:37Come on.
27:56Rex!
27:58Rex!
28:03Canine unit's still on route, but...
28:05I mean that's definitely two sets of paw prints.
28:08Yeah, temperature's dropping fast.
28:12But Rex wouldn't just head out into the woods with a puppy.
28:15No.
28:16No, not without a plan.
28:19But if he thought he could get her somewhere safe...
28:27Let's see if we can drag him.
28:37There must be some way I can steal the real statue.
28:40We gotta go, Bob.
28:42Like, we gotta get right off the island.
28:43You said you had the money being wired, right?
28:45We will get the money and then go, but not empty-handed.
28:48Well, let's just...
28:48Let's just take this and go.
28:50Don't...
28:50Don't touch her.
28:55Don't touch her.
28:57Don't touch her.
29:09Don't touch her.
29:11You have to put that down.
29:13Is this what you want?
29:16Just give him a puppy, man, before he tears us apart.
29:18You won't do anything.
29:19You might let this little one get hurt.
29:21Will you, huh?
29:28Well, we got company.
29:29Cops, take care of them.
29:30Now.
29:36Just move alive.
29:46I got it.
29:48Rex!
30:08Hey, it's okay.
30:10It's okay, we'll catch up to him.
30:12What?
30:15That's Holly's blanket, that's how we found you.
30:18Hey.
30:23Wait, he still has her.
30:27Hey, you did a good job, okay?
30:31We'll do everything we can to bring her back.
30:33I promise you, I promise you.
30:45Hey, there's a good boy.
30:48Hey.
30:49Well, I hope he got lots of extra treats.
30:51Hey, it's so great to have you back.
30:53It's time for Christmas.
30:55Hey, what's wrong, Rex?
30:56Is he okay?
30:56No, he's fine, physically.
30:59Until we get Holly back, I think he feels like he failed.
31:02No, no, you didn't fail, big guy.
31:05No, you kept Holly safe despite all odds.
31:07Now it's up to the whole team to bring her home.
31:09And we do that by finding Bob.
31:11Uh, we've got a bolo out on that SUV, but without plates,
31:14it's hiding amongst hundreds of others like it on the island.
31:17The airport and ferries are covered.
31:18And our shooter, a.k.a. Oliver Guthrow, has been transported back.
31:22Let's see what he has to say about his elusive boss.
31:29That's okay, bud.
31:30We're happy you're home.
31:34Yeah.
31:35Things aren't looking too good for you, Oliver.
31:38We have footage of you shooting Matthew.
31:40We found them on our disguise you wore.
31:43Not to mention your Glock 17, and I'm
31:46pretty sure that the bullet we pulled out of the wall of the inn is going to be a match.
31:51I've got nothing to say.
31:54You really want to go down for all this and let Bob go free?
31:58You're not worried that he might put a hit out on you?
32:00That's why I don't let anybody see my face.
32:03And live.
32:05Just like you did with Matthew?
32:09You help me, I tell the judge you cooperated.
32:13Silence gives you nothing.
32:16Where can we find Bob?
32:21Look, I don't know where he is.
32:23But he told me that he had to find the real statue.
32:28You really think he's going to try and steal the veil of Madonna again?
32:31Told me he's a dead man if he doesn't deliver by Boxing Day, so...
32:38Mind answering a question for me?
32:41What's that?
32:42Where'd that dog come from?
32:44Back in the building?
32:46And that little puppy?
32:49Let's just call them Christmas miracles.
32:55So Oliver's convinced that Bob is going to try to steal the statue again?
32:57And today's the last day the statue's going to be on display at the cathedral?
33:00And after midnight mass on Christmas Eve, he goes back to the convent on the other side of the grounds
33:04where security is a lot tighter.
33:05Do we think he's going to try to steal it on route?
33:08He's got to know what we're going to be watching.
33:10It's a suicide mission.
33:11Yeah, so I was failing to deliver it according to Oliver.
33:14I learned more about our art thief.
33:18Robert Chisholm.
33:19This photo is from two decades ago when Chisholm was suspected of dozens of heists.
33:23No mug shots?
33:24No.
33:24Never caught, never arrested.
33:26Oh, so he's got the resume for the job.
33:27Yeah.
33:28Why don't we simply ask the priest to remove the statue early?
33:32Just keep it under lock and key.
33:34Right, the mayor is going to love that.
33:36The centuries-old tradition of Newfoundland mummering tarnished,
33:39not to mention the city's most precious statue, isn't on display Christmas Eve.
33:42We need to capture Bob tonight before we miss our last chance to put him behind bars.
33:48Oh, Holly's blanket.
33:54We haven't forgotten about Holly.
33:59We have to remember that maybe Bob is...
34:01What were you saying before about hope?
34:05Okay.
34:07We'd have to run this by Father Francis.
34:09Ultimately, the decision on how much to risk the statue is up to him.
34:15Yeah.
34:16Meanwhile, Jesse, why don't you have a long talk with Matthew?
34:20We need to know about every nook and cranny in the cathedral if we're going to capture this
34:23master art thief in his own game.
34:25You got it.
34:28Everything's almost ready for Christmas.
34:30I thought it would really feel like Christmas once Rex was found.
34:34But not a present's been opened.
34:37She's been through so much.
34:39Having her dad with her and Holly back would be a big comfort to her.
34:42And having Bob behind bars would be a comfort to her family.
34:45Sarah and the team weren't at work.
34:47There's still time.
34:58We expect that the thief will make his move when the statue is being transported back to the convent.
35:03I suppose the wise thing to do would be to use the replica you recovered?
35:08Undeniably.
35:09But our thief, Bob, knows how to tell the difference.
35:12Besides, if we scare him off with a fake, I'll be looking over my shoulder every Christmas wondering if he's
35:17come back.
35:17Well, we can't let that happen.
35:19We need to trap him tonight.
35:21You'll have your officers watching her at all times.
35:23Oh, every second.
35:25Because I have no doubt that Bob will be watching back.
35:33Thanks.
35:39Rex, come on.
35:44It looks like your canine friend is still on the job, Pop.
35:49You may come in very useful.
35:55For now, at least.
36:02The last of the parishioners have left, Joe.
36:05Sarah and I are in position outside.
36:07Special Ops Christmas edition is a go.
36:10Copy that.
36:11Plan is a go.
36:13Time to move the Madonna back to the convent.
36:17Mark, a group of nuns just entered the cathedral.
36:20Yeah, I'm watching.
36:21Rex is aware.
36:25He's picked up a scent.
36:39Jesse, target's on the move.
36:42Stop!
36:43F2TV!
36:44Stay where you are!
36:46Oh my word, you scared me.
36:48I apologize, sister.
36:49I have to ask.
36:50Where did you get that puppy?
36:54Someone rang the bell and left her on the stoop.
36:57We are bringing her to Father Francis.
36:59Wait, Rex was tracking Holly, not...
37:01not Bob.
37:03A decoy.
37:06Which means...
37:11Oh, he certainly flushed him out all right.
37:13Oh, he's doing target.
37:29Give it up, Bob.
37:31There's nowhere to go.
37:32You take me down.
37:33She's going with me.
37:34Set the statue down.
37:36It's over.
37:37You shoot me, and I will drop her.
37:39And you will have robbed the city of its most sacred possession.
37:42You want that on your conscience?
37:43What?
37:44To destroy a beloved part of this island's Christmas tradition?
37:49You're right.
37:50There's no way we can let that happen.
37:52Luckily, we still have a few tricks up our sleeve too, Bob.
37:59It's a statue.
38:01How could you just...
38:03You split the fortune.
38:05Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
38:08This is not right.
38:09This is not right.
38:10Because it's your fake, Bob.
38:11No.
38:12The real statue was switched out right after mass.
38:15Yeah, failed.
38:16Madonna and Holly are both safe.
38:17And you, sir, have sinned.
38:20No, no, no, no, no.
38:22Oh, no.
38:24Come be.
38:24Send in the uniforms, Joe.
38:26Pick up this character.
38:28Then let's go save a little girl's Christmas.
38:37So much fun.
38:38So much fun.
38:43I really love all this stuff.
38:45What?
38:46Christmas is absolutely my favorite time of year.
38:49I can't get enough.
38:51I really need it, right?
38:52I can't get enough.
38:54And it just hit me there.
38:58Oh.
39:04Come, sweetie.
39:08Hi.
39:11I missed you.
39:13Go ahead.
39:15Oh.
39:16Ha!
39:17Ha!
39:18Ha!
39:18Ha!
39:18Ha!
39:21I hope Matthew's on the right path now.
39:23I'm sure the charges will be dropped, or at least his time's commuted.
39:26He's fully cooperated, and I hear he has an excellent lawyer.
39:33Well, hopefully the judge agrees.
39:36But...
39:37In the meantime...
39:39Let us have a very merry Christmas.
39:42Oh, Ray says she's keeping the bullet hole in the mama as a conversation piece.
39:47Not sure I proved the design.
39:49So we had a fake out of our own.
39:52Our thieves, they've used deception to dawn the time.
39:56Let's jump.
40:04You know, thank you so much for all of your input, Paige.
40:07You know, you should become an official police consultant.
40:10As a present to myself and my daughter, I respectfully decline.
40:16Hey, guys, team photo, Mark.
40:18You guys want to get together?
40:19Yeah, sure, of course.
40:20Yeah, of course.
40:21Rex, of course.
40:23Yeah?
40:24All right.
40:24Get around.
40:25Come on, team Christmas photo.
40:27Rex.
40:27All right.
40:29Oh, there we go.
40:30There we go.
40:32Yep.
40:32All right.
40:34All right.
40:35Okay.
40:37We got her, buddy.
40:39Smile.
40:40Wow.
40:42Merry Christmas, everyone.
40:44Merry Christmas, everyone.
40:45Merry Christmas.
40:45Merry Christmas.
