00:13Excuse me.
00:16Can't you see we're busy, lady?
00:19I am a morality officer, and you are breaking the law.
00:23High Park closed to all at nightfall.
00:26Oh. Carousing in the park after sundown?
00:34Improper conduct in public in the length of that skirt.
00:40Oh, for Pete's sake.
01:01Who's there?
01:17Help. Someone, please.
01:20Miss Berger, are you all right?
01:22Does it look like I'm all right?
01:24No, not really.
01:25What on earth has happened?
01:27I was attacked.
01:28By who?
01:29Not by whom. By what?
01:31What?
01:31I wasn't attacked by a man. I was attacked by a beast.
01:53Start at the beginning.
01:54This happened while you were on patrol?
01:57It was the end of my shift.
01:59I was on the street outside High Park
02:05when I felt the presence behind me.
02:07I turned and saw...
02:10It was enormous.
02:11Eyes wild and drooling like I was its dinner.
02:15I ran, but the beast pushed me down.
02:17How did you manage to escape?
02:19I hit and kicked with all my might.
02:23I think you met the rabid coyote Miss Cherry has been writing about.
02:27Rabid?
02:29Does that mean...
02:30Do I have rabies?
02:32That is highly unlikely.
02:34Unless, of course, you were bitten.
02:36I don't think I was.
02:38Well, you're not afraid of water, so that's a good sign.
02:41Why would I be afraid of water?
02:44Hydrophobia is a symptom of the disease.
02:47More specifically, the fear of the pain of swallowing.
02:55That does hurt.
02:58You were likely screaming a great deal during the attack.
03:02Besides, it's much too soon for hydrophobia to set in.
03:06It's a symptom that occurs much later in the disease.
03:10But I will take you to the hospital just to be certain.
03:13Perhaps they can take a look at that scratch on your cheek as well.
03:17So, I could still have rabies.
03:29Miss Berger wasn't bitten, but the doctor vaccinated her just to be safe.
03:33Well, that's a relief.
03:34But since when did coyotes start attacking people?
03:37I've been warning about the inevitability of it for weeks.
03:41Dog bites man.
03:42That's right up your alley.
03:44According to Constable Roberts, Miss Cherry here has been covering the rabid coyote situation for the Sentinel.
03:50And still, it took one of your own being affected for you to care.
03:53A nuisance animal is not the constabulary's responsibility.
03:56Nor is it the responsibility of any city agency, apparently.
04:00But people are terrified of the beast.
04:01I thought it had just been stalking small dogs.
04:04Stalking is just the beginning.
04:06I've had numerous reports of it attacking dogs.
04:09A woman's terrier was killed the other day.
04:12I see.
04:13Thank you, Miss Cherry.
04:15Can I tell my readers that the constabulary is on the case?
04:17No, you cannot.
04:18Now, if you don't mind, good day, Miss Cherry.
04:22So, what's the plan, though?
04:24I thought I would start by calling the Humane Society.
04:28The do-gooders worrying about coats and drinking fountains for horses will be no use.
04:32Get yourself down to Hyde Park.
04:34Talk to anyone but Miss Cherry.
04:35See what you can find out.
04:45Here are Mrs. Newsome.
04:46Oh, I...
04:47I think you and your husband will be very happy in your new home.
04:50Oh, he's... he's not...
04:51The door!
04:52Someone open... quickly now, open the door!
04:54Open the...
04:55There you are.
04:56Apartment 402.
04:58Just up the stairs.
05:0040...
05:00No one told me there'd be stairs.
05:05Serum, cells, drafts, and devices.
05:08Crosby's Curative Creations has it all and always for a steal.
05:12And special today, coyote repellent made fresh this morning.
05:17Guaranteed to protect one and all from the beast of Hyde Park.
05:21Just what exactly is this coyote repellent comprised of?
05:25Well, it's a proprietary recipe, I'm afraid.
05:29But are you sure you will not be disappointed, sir?
05:33Uh...
05:35It's, uh, wolf urine.
05:37I beg your pardon?
05:38Unappealing though it may be,
05:40Apex Predator's scent is the only thing guaranteed to repel a coyote.
05:44Huh, seems like sound science.
05:47Not all traveling medicine shows are selling snake oil.
05:52Ah, where was I?
05:55You're still depressed about the divorce.
05:58I am not depressed about anything.
06:01Why else would you want to live near the park at a time like this?
06:05At a time like what?
06:06Do you read my papers?
06:08I do.
06:09I, I, I often do.
06:11I've just been very busy with the move.
06:14Well, you might want to get caught up.
06:16Learn something about protecting yourself against the beast.
06:20The what?
06:23Here's a copy of the Sentinel.
06:26It'll tell you everything you need to know.
06:28You ask me, most trouble between humans and animals is on the biped, not the quadruped.
06:35You blame humans for the actions of a rabid coyote?
06:39Well, rabid or not, coyotes and other creatures are being forced into contact with mankind.
06:45How do you figure, Mr. Stanton?
06:46Well, this building boom is how.
06:49More homes for humans means fewer homes for animals.
06:53City's creeping in.
06:54Slow but sure.
06:56You seen the pool they're building out at the north end?
06:59Huh?
06:59Biggest in Canada, they say.
07:01Now, if you ask me, animals are...
07:04Was that a gunshot?
07:05Sounds like we both know no animals out here shooting a gun.
07:15You could have killed me!
07:16I thought I was saving your life!
07:18Toronto Constabulary, what is going on here?
07:21This maniac shot at me.
07:23I shot at the coyote that's been terrorizing people!
07:25That was my employer's German shepherd.
07:27The gunfire scared him off.
07:29Were either you or the dog injured?
07:31This boar missed by a mile.
07:33But if I don't find Klaus, he may as well shoot me.
07:37Stick around, I'll be happy to oblige.
07:39Sir, is that a threat?
07:41Call it what you want.
07:43I'm not leaving this park until I take the beast down.
07:46Suit yourself.
07:47You're coming with me.
07:51Klaus?
07:53It's only a matter of time before someone is killed either by the beast or by some idiot who's trying
07:57to kill it himself.
07:58This has to end you.
08:00All right, uh, the chief constable and myself have formulated a plan.
08:08We've divided the park into 16 equal segments.
08:11Two men per segment.
08:13The first step is to clear everyone out of the park.
08:17Let's leave no stone unturned, lads.
08:19Search every path.
08:21Look under every bush.
08:22Search up every tree.
08:23We're certain that everyone is out.
08:25We re-enter the park at dusk.
08:28Two men per segment.
08:30We find and eliminate the coyote.
08:34Any questions?
08:36Well, in that case, what are you waiting for?
08:38Let's get cracking.
08:38Chop, chop.
08:44Thank you, folks.
08:46What's going on here?
08:48That's a police matter.
08:50Has the beast finally claimed a human life?
08:53Thankfully, no, and we aim to ensure it never does.
08:56I hope you're not going to kill it.
08:59If it's the only way to restore public safety.
09:03The chain, that thing's been good for business.
09:06I beg your pardon?
09:07My competitors are just afraid to invest in land near the park right now.
09:11Oh.
09:11You're a developer.
09:13Bartholomew Prescott.
09:14Prescott Properties.
09:15And the owner of two prime lots on Parkside Avenue.
09:18Got them for a steal.
09:19Perhaps you should try to not be so glib, Mr. Prescott.
09:23This is a serious situation.
09:26The beast has attacked one of my colleagues.
09:28And that is awful.
09:29But I won't apologize for building more apartments
09:32before City Hall passes its terrible bylaw prohibiting them.
09:36Good day, Detective.
09:39Evacuation is complete.
09:41Ready on your word.
09:42All right.
09:42Let's do it.
10:22There. In the clearing. I guess we know what happened to Klaus.
10:28Sir?
10:29It's not important. You have a shot?
10:36I can, if I just...
10:41It's not well.
10:43No. Excess salivation, poor coordination.
10:47I think we've found our rabid coyote.
11:05It's for the best.
11:08I just saw this morning's sentinel. Is it true? Did you kill the beast?
11:13The poor thing wasn't very beastly, but yes, I did.
11:18Thank you, Constable Roberts.
11:21And thank you, Detective Murdoch, for making the park safe again.
11:25Well, I'm afraid we may not have done so just yet, Miss Berger.
11:29Constable Roberts, with me, please?
11:32Yes, sir.
11:43So much for reading the city of the beast.
11:55Ah, Mrs. Crabtree, uh, Miss Newsome.
11:57How are you settling into the new apartment?
11:59Better this morning.
12:01Louise had me worried yesterday with all that talk of the beast of High Park.
12:05You're living near the park?
12:06Just across the street.
12:07I'll have a housewarming once I've unpacked.
12:09Yeah.
12:10You might want to hold off on that.
12:11Louise, what are you doing here?
12:14I'm here to get a comment from the Chief Constable about the woman mauled to death in the park.
12:19I thought the rabid coyote had been killed.
12:22It has been.
12:23So it was another coyote that killed this woman?
12:26I'm not saying that.
12:27Then what are you saying?
12:28I'm not saying anything other than I don't want you telling your readers about this.
12:32Why would I do that? The public deserves to know.
12:35You could be inciting a panic for no good reason.
12:37For all we know, the poor woman was killed by the coyote that Roberts shot.
12:40Well, you'll give me an exclusive when you're ready to share the news.
12:45Louise, that's blackmail.
12:47Nonsense.
12:48It's tit for tat and the world runs on it.
12:51So?
12:53If you were to whisper anything about this before my say-so...
12:56Consider my lips sealed and my pen capped.
12:59Oh, Miss Cherry, I dream about that regularly.
13:11Oh, perfect timing. Miss Hart was about to deliver her report.
13:15I hope it's good news.
13:16Depends on your perspective.
13:18The victim wasn't killed by a coyote or any other animal.
13:22What about the torn flesh and scratches?
13:25Might have been made by a coyote, but it wasn't inflicted until after she was dead.
13:29How do you know that for certain?
13:30They didn't bruise or bleed.
13:33If a coyote isn't responsible for this young woman's death, then what is?
13:38Her carotid artery was slashed.
13:42And very cleanly so.
13:45This laceration was made by a knife.
13:47So then it was murder.
13:49I have no doubt about it.
13:51She was killed sometime late last night.
13:53Right.
13:54Thank you, Miss Hart.
13:59I thought the park had been evacuated.
14:02I let the constables go after the rabid coyote was found.
14:06So sometime after, the young woman went back into the park and met a killer?
14:11Unfortunately, yes.
14:13Have you identified her?
14:15No.
14:15Henry's gone around visiting local dentists in the hopes of doing so now.
14:19So she's so far gone to necessitate using dental records?
14:23No, sir.
14:24But she did wear a retainer.
14:26A what?
14:27It's a dental apparatus for aligning teeth.
14:30If we can find the dentist who made it, then it will be that much easier to identify her.
14:34What about the bites?
14:36What about them?
14:37Well, the time of death means that they weren't inflicted by a rabid coyote.
14:42Perhaps there are other coyotes in the park?
14:45Well, even though the rabid coyote was killed, the public are still primed to be terrified of them thanks to
14:51Miss Bloody Cherry.
14:52You're worried the remaining creatures will be targeted?
14:55I know they will.
14:56And the last thing we need is an idiot running around the park shooting off a rifle.
15:00Right.
15:01What do you suggest?
15:03Well, that the rest of the coyotes are put down.
15:06Officially.
15:07I won't do it.
15:08I won't take a life, any life.
15:11Unnecessarily.
15:11This is a matter of public safety.
15:14I disagree.
15:15The remaining coyotes in the park have done nothing to indicate they're a danger.
15:18That's not the point.
15:19Sir, there may be another way.
15:21Give me one good reason why I shouldn't fire you on the spot for insolence.
15:24He's the best marksman we have at this station house for a start.
15:28And he's the only constable that I would trust with this at the moment.
15:32What is it?
15:33It's a non-lethal sedation device that I've been working on.
15:36No, you're missing the point, Murdoch.
15:39Lethal is the point.
15:40It doesn't have to be.
15:43This fires darts that are loaded with a powerful tranquilizer that will render the targets unconscious.
15:51But not dead?
15:53Not dead.
15:54Exactly.
15:55If this works, as I intend, we can sedate the remaining coyotes so that they can be moved out.
16:03At least until all of the panic dies down.
16:06Let me have a look at this.
16:08Oh, careful.
16:09I know how to handle weapons.
16:12Sir, it's...
16:15Henry, oh.
16:16Uh-oh.
16:17Oh.
16:18Sir, I don't...
16:19I don't feel...
16:20I don't feel...
16:21That's got a bloody head.
16:22Trigger that.
16:23All right.
16:24Higgins.
16:26Higgins.
16:27Wake up.
16:28Wake up.
16:29I'm afraid it's not that simple, sir.
16:31How long does this sedation thing last?
16:33Well, it depends on the target's body weight.
16:36In this case, I would estimate three to four hours.
16:41Bloody hell.
16:42Three to four hours?
16:43Let's get him in Troy's office.
16:45Put him on the sofa.
16:46Very good idea.
16:47Have one of the constables help you.
16:49Where are you going?
16:49To identify our victim.
16:53Robots!
17:05Is everything all right?
17:07That's good.
17:08I've been cleared to work.
17:10So you don't have rabies?
17:12Not yet.
17:13What do you mean?
17:15What if I'm attacked again?
17:17You've read this morning Sentinel.
17:19You don't have to worry about rabid coyotes anymore.
17:21Who knows how many more of those beasts are in there?
17:24Have you seen any before the other night?
17:27No, but...
17:28Right, because coyotes like to keep their distance.
17:31As long as that's true, you have nothing to be afraid of.
17:33If that's true, then why are you still carrying around a gun?
17:37Actually, it's a non-lethal sedation device.
17:40It's a mouthful.
17:41But still, it's a weapon.
17:45Would you feel better if we patrolled together?
17:48It would.
17:48It would.
17:49Thank you, Constable Roberts.
17:51Of course.
17:59I told her.
18:01She didn't even need the thing.
18:05Her teeth were perfect.
18:07But you know how young women can be.
18:11How long had Adriana Fodor been your patient, Dr. Loboda?
18:17She wasn't simply my patient.
18:21She was my protege in the dental arts.
18:25Are you worked together?
18:27The last three years, yes.
18:30Can't believe it.
18:30She's gone.
18:33She was killed by a damn coyote.
18:37Was it unusual for Ms. Fodor to be in the park?
18:42No.
18:43Not at all.
18:44The poor girl moved house just to get closer to the place.
18:50She took walks there.
18:52Most every day.
18:54Even though she knew there was a rabid coyote about?
18:57Well, she said that her friend, Willie,
19:01told her there's no need to be concerned.
19:03Willie?
19:05You mean Mr. Stanton, the groundskeeper?
19:08Couldn't say.
19:09I never met the man.
19:11Thank goodness.
19:13Why do you say that?
19:14Because if I had,
19:16I would have choice words for him, though.
19:19At any moment, and...
19:23Excuse me, detective.
19:35What on earth?
19:40What are you doing?
19:42I guess the same thing,
19:44walking to a stranger's home.
19:45This isn't your home.
19:47It's mine.
19:48I'm afraid you're mistaken.
19:49I've already paid deposit
19:50and first month's rent on this unit.
19:52No, as did I.
19:53I have a receipt to prove it.
19:55As do I.
19:59Well, we can't very well both live here.
20:01Indeed so.
20:02Which is why I put your things out in the hall.
20:11We're so lucky to have a forest
20:13in the middle of the city.
20:15I'd have said the same thing two days ago.
20:17Hyde Park used to be a kind of sanctuary for me.
20:20It will be again.
20:22I don't think it will be.
20:24That's my own fault.
20:25How so?
20:29Promise you won't tell Detective Murdoch
20:31or anyone else?
20:32I promise.
20:35I wasn't attacked near the park.
20:38I was attacked in the park.
20:41All right.
20:43Don't you see?
20:44I was breaking the law.
20:46The park is off limits after dark,
20:47but it had been such a long day
20:49and I couldn't resist.
20:51That doesn't make what happened your fault.
20:53Of course it does.
20:54If I had just followed the rules,
20:56none of this would have happened.
21:01What is it?
21:03Do you hear something?
21:04Just listen.
21:14Cardinal.
21:17What was that you were saying about a sanctuary?
21:19What are you two up to?
21:22Patrolling.
21:22Same as usual.
21:24You don't have to lie to me, Constable.
21:25I know about the dead woman.
21:27Is that right?
21:28Yes.
21:29So you might as well tell me what exactly is going on here
21:32and why you have that gun.
21:34Actually, it's a non-lethal sedation device.
21:36That doesn't answer my question.
21:38Miss Cherry, I don't know what to tell you.
21:40All we're doing is...
21:43Aren't you going to ask me about my attack, Miss Cherry?
21:48Well, I have been curious.
21:50It was simply awful.
21:52Let me tell you, Miss Cherry,
21:54the way that I feared for my life
21:56was not like anything I've ever experienced.
22:02Do you think it could be the murder weapon?
22:05Certainly sharp enough to have killed Miss Fodor.
22:08And you say it was just laying in the grass?
22:11Yes, on the ground.
22:12Not too far from the groundkeeper's cabin.
22:14Mr. Stanton.
22:16Sir?
22:18He's the groundskeeper.
22:19And apparently, Miss Fodor was quite friendly with him.
22:24Come to think of it,
22:26he was whittling with a knife about this size
22:28when I spoke with him the other day.
22:31So he's likely to kill him?
22:33There's one way to find out.
22:49I'm so sorry, Mrs. Newsome.
22:51Miss Newsome.
22:53Yes, of course.
22:54It's my brains.
22:56It's hard to keep things in there sometimes.
22:58Now, how is it that two tenants came to rent the same apartment?
23:02What?
23:03No.
23:04That's not what's happening.
23:06It's, uh...
23:07No, no, no, no.
23:08It's my mistake.
23:08I assure you.
23:11Um...
23:12Ah, yes.
23:13Ha-ha.
23:13Here you are.
23:15Newsome.
23:16Ha-ha.
23:19Apartment 204.
23:20Ha-ha.
23:21I gave you the wrong key yesterday.
23:23Well, that's quite a big mistake.
23:25Yes.
23:26I have a form of the numberless blindness.
23:29I swap things in my mind sometimes.
23:32Yeah.
23:37Here is the correct key.
23:39Yeah.
23:39You can, of course, move in immediately.
23:44Toronto Constabulary.
23:46You're in here, Mr. Stanton.
23:48Show yourself.
23:49Yes.
23:50Yes.
23:51Yes.
23:51Yes.
23:51Yes.
23:52Yes.
23:55Yes.
24:05Sir.
24:07I've found something.
24:14The bites and scratches were made post-mortem.
24:17The cause of death was a severed carotid artery,
24:19just like the first victim.
24:21Time of death?
24:23Given the rigor and body temperature,
24:25I'd say right around the same time
24:26Ms. Fodor was killed.
24:28Yes.
24:29Ms. Fodor's body was discovered
24:31just a few hundred meters from here.
24:33You think the groundskeeper killed her
24:35and then himself?
24:37I don't believe so, no.
24:39So who did?
24:40And how did they get their hands
24:41on Mrs. Stanton's knife?
24:42Both excellent questions.
24:44But I'm more interested in this.
24:49Do my eyes deceive me, Ms. Hart,
24:52or is this shape of bite mark
24:56unusual for a coyote?
24:58It's more than unusual, Detective.
25:00It's impossible.
25:04Unless...
25:04Unless it was made by a human.
25:12I don't know why I keep expecting
25:14Ms. Cherry to keep a word.
25:15Have a look at that.
25:17Yes.
25:18At least she hasn't learned
25:20the identities of the victims.
25:21Or that there's a murderer on the loose.
25:24Is a murderous coyote any better?
25:26Well, sir, it does provide us cover
25:27to investigate without alerting the killer.
25:30But what good is that
25:31if we have no idea who the killer is?
25:33I believe I have made some headway
25:35in that direction.
25:35Or at least I've found a way
25:37to find the killer.
25:41What do a set of dentures
25:42have to do with all this?
25:43Ms. Hart has confirmed
25:44that the bite marks
25:45on Ms. Fodor's body
25:47were indeed human.
25:48But the teeth marks themselves
25:51were not human.
25:53Go on.
25:54These belonged to our second victim,
25:58Willie Stanton.
25:59They are made of
26:00filed-down coyote teeth.
26:03So you think the killer
26:04used these to make it look
26:05like a coyote killed the poor sod?
26:07Not quite.
26:08I believe he had
26:09a similar set made
26:10but then did not file down
26:12coyote teeth.
26:14So actually, yes.
26:17Didn't you say
26:17that the first victim
26:18had a connection to a dentist?
26:20I certainly did.
26:22You make dentures,
26:23do you not, Dr. Lobota?
26:25I do.
26:26Why?
26:28Did you make this set?
26:33Certainly not.
26:35How can you be sure?
26:37For starters,
26:38the craftsmanship,
26:38it's very amateurish.
26:41And I wouldn't even know
26:42what to source animal teeth.
26:44You use alternate materials?
26:46Porcelain.
26:48Like most professionals.
26:55Doctor, please tell me more
26:59about your relationship
27:00with Adriana Fodor.
27:02She was a fine student
27:05and a nice girl.
27:08Did you have feelings for her?
27:13Why are you asking me about this?
27:15Humor me.
27:18Had I hoped that
27:20one day we might?
27:23Yes.
27:25But she made it perfectly clear
27:26that she was only interested in me
27:28as a teacher.
27:30And how did that make you feel?
27:34Detective,
27:34I've had quite enough of this.
27:37I insist.
27:38You tell me what is going on.
27:40Adriana Fodor was murdered,
27:41as was Willie Stanton,
27:43the groundskeeper.
27:44What about the coyotes?
27:48Their deaths were made
27:49to look like animal attacks,
27:50using a set of dentures,
27:52not unlike bees.
28:00No, no, you don't think that...
28:03Detective, it wasn't me.
28:05I did not kill Adriana,
28:07nor anyone else for that matter.
28:08No?
28:09No!
28:11But if someone did,
28:13my money
28:13would be on Bartholomew Prescott,
28:16the developer.
28:17Yes, they were an item.
28:19Don't ask me why.
28:20I mean, he treated her awfully.
28:22When did you last see
28:24the two of them together?
28:25Well, he picked her up from work
28:27the day that she died.
28:31Miss Berger.
28:33Miss Berger.
28:33Constable Roberts.
28:34I was hoping to run into you.
28:36I wanted to thank you
28:37for your help distracting Miss Sherry.
28:39I could tell you didn't want her
28:40to see whatever you found.
28:42I hope it's helped with the case.
28:44Uh, yes, and no,
28:46but Detective Murdoch
28:47gets to the bottom of things.
28:49Shall we control it together again?
28:51Um, I've been reassigned
28:53to the ward.
28:55You don't seem happy about that.
28:57Oh, no, no, it's fine.
28:58Um, I'm grateful for the job.
29:02I didn't say your word.
29:04It's just,
29:05the ward can be so overwhelming.
29:08The city, really.
29:10Being assigned to the park
29:11was a nice respite for me.
29:13Even with the coyotes.
29:15Having a friend
29:16with a non-lethal sedation device helps.
29:19If the city is so overwhelming,
29:21why become a morality officer?
29:23To help make it less so for others.
29:31Yes, I met Adrienne
29:33after work Tuesday.
29:34What of it?
29:36You may well be the last person
29:38to have seen her alive.
29:40What are you?
29:42Adrienne is dead?
29:45The woman killed by that coyote
29:47was her?
29:50I've been telling her
29:51to stay away from the park for weeks.
29:54Until what time
29:55were you with Miss Fedora on Tuesday?
30:00Just long enough for her
30:01to tell me she didn't want
30:01to see me anymore.
30:03No.
30:04She ended things.
30:06She said she needed to focus
30:07on her studies.
30:09Obviously, she didn't feel
30:10she needed to give up
30:11her precious walks
30:12with that wild man Stanton.
30:14And where did you go
30:16after the two of you
30:17parted ways?
30:18I went back to my office
30:19to review designs
30:20for my next building.
30:23Can anyone corroborate this?
30:25No.
30:27Why are you asking this?
30:29Mr. Prescott,
30:30you told me that
30:31this rabid coyote
30:34had been good for business.
30:36Mary.
30:37And just how far
30:38would you be willing
30:39to go to keep
30:40business booming?
30:43I don't know
30:43if I need it,
30:44I suppose.
30:51What's going on here?
30:52You're under arrest
30:53on the suspicion
30:54of the murders
30:55of Adrienne Fodor
30:56and Willie Stanton.
31:03Excuse me, sir.
31:05We're just finishing up.
31:06Another five minutes.
31:08Oh, no,
31:08I'm not ticketing you.
31:10Then what do you want?
31:11Some help, actually.
31:13There are some crates
31:14very important
31:15to the constabulary
31:16that need moving.
31:17I ain't doing
31:18any free work today, copper.
31:19I've already done
31:20double than what I expect.
31:21You and me both.
31:22My friend,
31:23I mean the constabulary,
31:25we're giving the keys
31:26to the wrong apartment.
31:28Well, that's nothing.
31:29Our client just found out
31:30his apartment had been
31:31rented by someone else.
31:32Now we've got to
31:33cart everything down
31:34three floors
31:34and back out again.
31:36Three floors is a lot.
31:38I only have to go up
31:38and down one flight.
31:41Well, have a good day.
31:47Constable Roberts,
31:48how goes the morning's patrol?
31:51Uneventful.
31:52I haven't caught
31:53a glimpse of the coyote.
31:54And your interview
31:55with Loboda?
31:56Fruitful.
31:57I've arrested
31:58Adriana Fedor's
31:59former beau,
32:01Bartholomew Prescott,
32:02on suspicion of murder.
32:03So the case is closed?
32:05Not quite.
32:06Although Mr. Prescott
32:07does have strong motive,
32:09I don't think
32:10he would stoop
32:10to wearing coyote teeth
32:12and wandering around.
32:13Did you say coyote teeth?
32:14And murder?
32:15Have you been following me?
32:17A journalist does
32:17what she has to do
32:18to get the scoop.
32:19And this is the scoop
32:20of the year.
32:21No, the decade.
32:22Miss Cherry,
32:23if you print a word of this,
32:25I will have you arrested.
32:26If you do that,
32:27then I'll never tell you
32:28what I know
32:29about Adriana Fedor's
32:30final movements.
32:31You saw her
32:32on the day she died
32:33and you didn't disclose that?
32:35Well, I didn't know
32:36the relevance.
32:37But now that I know
32:38she's been murdered...
32:40Tell us what you know.
32:41Or what?
32:42You'll throw me in jail.
32:45Fine.
32:46She was with Parker Crosby.
32:48That man selling a coyote
32:49repellent outside the park.
32:51Yes.
32:51And it seemed rather heated
32:53if you asked me.
32:58Oh, Detective.
33:00Nice to see you again.
33:01How can I help you?
33:02You can start by telling me
33:04what you and Adriana Fedor
33:05argued about two nights ago.
33:08I wouldn't call it an argument
33:10or more of a discussion.
33:12Tell me,
33:13do your curative creations
33:15extend to dentistry,
33:16Mr. Crosby.
33:18Well, sometimes.
33:20Why do you ask?
33:21Let's have a look
33:22inside this wagon.
33:23Oh, I don't think
33:24that's necessary, Detective.
33:25I'd be more than happy
33:27to answer any questions you have.
33:28Keys, please.
33:30You see, the thing is,
33:31Detective, I...
33:36I...
33:36Oh, I tailbone.
33:42I'm sure you have a salve
33:44that can take care
33:45of any bruising.
33:56Apple juice?
34:01Is this why
34:02you wouldn't let me
34:03into the back of the wagon?
34:05I thought you were gonna arrest me
34:07for selling a false product.
34:09I swear,
34:09I was only swapping it out
34:10until I...
34:10My next batch of wolf here
34:12and arrived next week.
34:13Do you make dentures or not?
34:15Not.
34:16But I need a set.
34:18That's what Miss Fodor and I
34:19were talking about the other day.
34:21You're a patient of Dr. Loboda's?
34:24I couldn't afford the sort he made.
34:26But Miss Fodor,
34:27she found me here
34:28after my appointment
34:29and said she'd help.
34:30Help how?
34:31Said she'd been learning
34:32how to make them herself.
34:34She made a set for a friend
34:35using coyote teeth
34:36and offered to do the same for me.
34:39Where is that set now?
34:41I have no idea.
34:43That's why I was upset
34:44I was supposed to go
34:45to her apartment
34:46for my final feeding
34:47last Tuesday night.
34:48When she canceled last Monday?
34:50What happened?
34:51All she said was
34:52there was trouble
34:53at her new apartment.
34:57I'll be needing that address.
35:04Miss Newsome?
35:07Hello.
35:09Are you here to help Henry?
35:11Help Henry?
35:13Oh, sir.
35:16I could very much
35:17use your help.
35:20I was told that this apartment
35:21belonged to Adriana Fodor,
35:23the young lady
35:23that was killed in High Park.
35:26I think you're mistaken.
35:27There's a lot of that
35:28going around, sir.
35:29You got lucky
35:30only having to move floors.
35:32Is this not the apartment
35:34that you initially rented?
35:36No.
35:37There was a mix-up of keys.
35:39At least you got to stay
35:40in the building.
35:41Some poor sap
35:41lost out on his apartment entirely.
35:43Yes, it's terrible.
35:45It is.
35:47And it could explain
35:48the situation
35:49that Miss Fodor was in.
35:51I'd like to speak
35:52with the superintendent.
35:53I'll join you.
35:58I'll just get more crates.
36:03Hello?
36:07Well, shall we wait?
36:11And while we do,
36:17Adriana Fodor.
36:20These must be her things.
36:23I don't see the dentures
36:25that she was working on
36:26with Mr. Crosby.
36:28I am several steps behind here.
36:31Could you please
36:32bring me up to speed?
36:33Oh.
36:36Can I help you?
36:38Detective William Murdoch,
36:40Toronto Constabulary.
36:41I'm investigating the death
36:42of Adriana Fodor.
36:43Yes.
36:44I believe these are her things?
36:46They are.
36:48I, um,
36:50I've begun cleaning out
36:51her apartment.
36:52Poor thing.
36:54Malled to death by coyotes.
36:56What apartment did she reside in?
37:00Uh, 204.
37:03But that's my apartment.
37:08I gave you a room with a view.
37:10Your deposit was for a unit
37:12facing away from the park.
37:13But you said yesterday,
37:15Mr. Pascoe,
37:16that you had always intended
37:17for me to be in 204.
37:21Did I?
37:24I'm so terribly sorry.
37:25I, uh, um,
37:26my mind is so scrambled these days.
37:28Because you're running
37:29some sort of rental scam.
37:32Aren't you?
37:36I, uh,
37:38yes, I,
37:39I may have taken more deposits
37:41than there were apartments.
37:42And you killed
37:43Adriana Fodor
37:44when she found out as much.
37:46What?
37:46No, no!
37:48I, uh,
37:48I never had any trouble
37:49with Miss Fodor.
37:51Mr. Pascoe,
37:52you gave me the keys
37:53to her apartment
37:53before the news
37:55of the deaths
37:55in High Park
37:56was broken.
37:57The names of the victims
37:58have never been published.
38:01You,
38:02now,
38:02you must be mistaken.
38:04How could I have known
38:05unless,
38:06um,
38:07unless
38:09you're a murderer?
38:17Henry!
38:18Why didn't you stop here?
38:19No, Kutcher,
38:20I can't see over the crates!
38:21Put those down!
38:22Let's go!
38:34Mr. Pascoe,
38:35stop!
38:38All right.
38:39Henry,
38:39follow him in.
38:40I'll cut around
38:41and see if I can stop him
38:42at the other end of the park.
38:49Ugh!
38:50Ugh!
39:06Mr. Pascoe?
39:14Ugh!
39:16Ugh!
39:17Bloody rock!
39:18Ugh!
39:20Ugh!
39:20Ugh!
39:21Ugh!
39:27Ugh!
39:33Ugh!
39:33Ugh!
39:33Mr. Pascoe?
39:34Ugh!
39:35Stop!
39:35Ugh!
39:37Ugh!
39:37Ugh!
39:40Ugh!
39:41Ugh!
39:41Ugh!
39:42Seemed only fair.
39:43I got a chance to try it, sir,
39:44after being shot with it.
39:46Henry.
39:53I heard your dark gun proved to be useful.
39:55It did indeed.
39:57And the superintendent admitted to it all then, did he?
40:00Once he regained consciousness, yes.
40:02I can see why he killed Miss Fodor,
40:03but why the groundskeeper?
40:05Necessity.
40:05She fled to his cabin after confronting Mr. Pascoe.
40:09And the horrible dentures?
40:11An afterthought.
40:12They just happened to be amongst Miss Fodor's things.
40:15Lucky for him that she had yet to file down the coyote teeth.
40:18Or unlucky for her.
40:20Well, that's another case closed, me old mucker.
40:23You deserve a night off.
40:25Are you going to Miss Newsome's housewarming party?
40:27I am.
40:28Um, how did she convince Mr. Prescott to let her stay in the building
40:32if Mr. Pascoe stole her deposit?
40:35I had a word with a friend down at city council
40:37about that by-law that Prescott's worried about.
40:40Expect more apartment blocks on major streets.
40:43I have no issue with them.
40:44As long as they don't infringe on any more parkland.
40:50You detain me and then you give my exclusive to the Gazette?
40:53I had absolutely nothing to do with the latter.
40:56You.
40:58That, Miss Cherry, is called tit for tat.
41:00And the world runs on it.
41:02How dare you twist my words.
41:03Doesn't feel very nice, does it?
41:05Maybe now you've learned your lesson.
41:07Well, yes, if the lesson is that the police are-
41:09How about we get you a drink?
41:11I'm sorry.
41:15Feeling overwhelmed?
41:17Pardon me?
41:18By the party, I mean.
41:20Thought you might be taking respite by looking at the park,
41:23like you said the other day.
41:25Why would I need respite from a party?
41:28I don't know.
41:29I thought maybe-
41:30Well, you thought wrong.
41:32I'm watching a pair of lawless boys gambling right out in the open.
41:37I think they're playing knuckleballs.
41:40Sounds filthy.
41:42I intend to put a stop to it.
41:46I'll come with you.
41:48Thank you for all your help this week, Henry.
41:50I know it was a lot.
41:52Oh, it was hell.
41:53I don't know if my back will ever be the same.
41:56I don't know how I can ever repay you, but here.
41:59It's a token of my appreciation.
42:03Well, I suppose it's a start.
42:07Miss Newsome, a housewarming gift.
42:11You didn't have to do that.
42:13It's an automatic bread toaster.
42:15Automatic?
42:16Yes.
42:17I designed it myself.
42:19The mechanism allows for the bread to be toasted to perfection before releasing it.
42:24But do be careful.
42:26The release mechanism is somewhat enthusiastic.
42:30Understood.
42:36So, how have you been faring?
42:40Settling into a smaller space, you mean?
42:43Among other things.
42:48Have you spoken to him?
42:50Once or twice.
42:52It seems to be adjusting well to life in St. John's.
42:59I'm happy to hear it.
43:01As was I.
43:05Well, I must be off.
43:08Thank you for the invitation.
43:10Well, thank you for coming.
43:14This place feels more like home already.
43:22Affie, you must tell me where you got that laugh.
43:25It's not.
43:26Which one?
43:27Oh, that was my grandmother's.
43:30Yeah, ladies.
43:31Oh.
43:32No whiskey?
43:33Oh, no, no, no, no.
43:34One take.
43:36Splash.
43:37Go on.
43:55Oh, no.
44:02Go Gab
44:04Yeah.
44:04That day.
44:05Yeah.
44:09Okay.
