00:01Previously on R.J. Decker.
00:03R.J. freakin' Decker.
00:04They let you out already?
00:05I'm a P.I. now.
00:06Detective Aubreyu, hello, how are you?
00:08How is everything at the trailer park?
00:09You making new friends?
00:10I'm on trial.
00:12Good luck today.
00:14Thanks.
00:15Would you please state your name and relationship to the victim?
00:17I'm Emmy Ochoa.
00:18Lucas is my stepbrother,
00:19and that's the man who almost killed them.
00:21If I hadn't lied to protect Lucas,
00:23there would have been consequences.
00:25But it was still wrong, and I'm sorry.
00:27A sinkhole opened up outside your window
00:29three weeks ago, and you didn't come to stay with us then?
00:31You wanted to see me.
00:33You can stay here one week, and then you go.
00:36I was exonerated.
00:37The very first thing I did was I bought a scratcher,
00:40and that scratcher paid out a million bucks.
00:42I'm not released this day instead of the next.
00:44Who knows what comes of me?
01:17I'm not worked.
01:17Dear friend, if you want to feel better,
01:19don't let the devil make you toss this letter.
01:22If you've been crossed up by who do, who do, a wizard or a lizard
01:26You got family trouble, man trouble, woman trouble, no nice job of brother
01:31You're looking for a true friend, or a true lover
01:33Or if you've been living undercover
01:35Well, I'm coming to your town to break it all down
01:38Go, go, go, go
01:39Check out the lab
01:43Don't move, enter the air
01:49I'm here to turn all the walls down
01:56Hot damn, that's a lot of weed
01:58In case you were wondering which of your pals tipped us off
02:01It's an old lady, watch her dog around here
02:04Kept reporting suspicious activity like she was trying to win a radio contest
02:08Karen's, am I right?
02:10It's not cannabis, it's carnivorous
02:12I said it's not cannabis, it's carnivorous
02:16They're not marijuana plants, they're Venus flytraps
02:26Hey detective, over here
02:29Let's go
02:35Is that a meat grinder?
02:40You gotta see this
02:48Question for you son
02:51Who exactly have you been feeding to your plants?
03:03You're real bad at this, babe
03:05Okay
03:06Seriously, if breaking into cars with baseball, you'd be the Rockies
03:09Well, maybe if I had a better teacher
03:10You got the best in four loud
03:12Don't blame me for your old man finies
03:14Whoa
03:15I think you mean you were the best, right?
03:17Because you know what happens if I find out you're unretired?
03:19Tell my mom
03:20Yes
03:21Which is worse than telling the cops
03:23That's right
03:23Ain't happening
03:24I am D-O-N-E
03:26Done, son
03:29Stupid pick is broken or something
03:38Why'd you do that?
03:40What are you doing in my car?
03:41Oh, hey Kath, this is Darius
03:43He's helping me out with this new skill I might need as a PI
03:48It's 9 a.m. on a Monday
03:49Is it?
03:50Shouldn't Darius be in school?
03:51No, ma'am
03:52Some dude who lived near the school lost his ball
03:55We're all supposed to stay home until animal control finds him
03:58I'm so sorry
03:59Thanks
04:01Found the key to the file drawers
04:03Unless you'd like to pick that lock too
04:15Okay
04:16This is great
04:17I have a place to, uh, put all my files
04:24I take it things are still a little slow?
04:27Yeah
04:27Yeah, they're a bit slow
04:28They're picking up
04:29Wish texted me last night
04:30Said he had a new client for me
04:32Oh, shoot
04:33Actually, I gotta meet the guy in 20 minutes
04:36Will he be older than 12?
04:41Hey, where's the client?
04:45Oh, God
04:46Wish
04:48I mean, we've been over this
04:49I, I, I
04:50I need work
04:51I don't need charity
04:52This is a genuine case, Arch
04:54Genuine case?
04:55Really?
04:56Like, like the case of the missing deep fryer?
04:57You remember that one?
04:58He told me it was stolen
04:59But that was bull
05:00It was just out for repairs
05:01Then there was the time
05:02You wanted a list of names
05:04Background checks
05:04So they could work here
05:05Only they turned out to be
05:06The starting O-line for the 84 Dolphins
05:08I swear
05:09Had any of those gentlemen been interested
05:10I'd have hired them
05:12Wish
05:12I
05:16You remember me
05:17Telling you about
05:18Waylon Abernathy
05:20Yeah
05:21Yeah, of course
05:22He was your Sally
05:23The first time you got locked up
05:26Showed you the ropes
05:27Just like you did for me
05:29Prison being prison
05:30Where the wrong look
05:32At the wrong time
05:32Can get you
05:33A sharpened toothbrush
05:34Through the old Adam's apple
05:35I think you'll agree
05:37It's the sort of kindness
05:38You don't soon forget
05:40Hence why I want to hire you
05:42To get Waylon's son Marcus
05:43Out of a spot of trouble
05:46It's trouble
05:48It's where it's real
05:49Always real
05:52He even made the paper
05:57Yeah
06:01Whoa
06:03Look
06:14Let's go
06:17Go
06:18Go
06:21Go
06:22andеров
06:31Marcus, how you doing?
06:32My name's R.J. Decker.
06:33I'm a private investigator.
06:35Yeah, I know.
06:35The guards told me.
06:36But if you're looking for work, I'm sorry.
06:38I can't afford you.
06:39I'm not sure I already paid for.
06:40I'm a friend of Wish Aikens.
06:42Mr. Aikens sent you?
06:43Yeah, he sure did.
06:45He tells me there's no way you could have done what they're saying.
06:47No, no, no, sir.
06:48Not in a million years.
06:50So far, all I know is what I've read in the papers.
06:53The police were expecting to find marijuana in your grow house.
06:56It wasn't my grow house.
06:58It was Clem's.
06:59Clem Crayshaw.
07:00He's the one who hired me.
07:01He's a fly trap poacher.
07:03He's a what now?
07:04Fly traps are rare.
07:06That's what makes him valuable.
07:08The only place they grow naturally in the whole world is the southeast corner of North Carolina.
07:12And that's where he would steal his.
07:14So you and this Clem guy, you guys were, what, partners?
07:17Clem was good at poaching.
07:18He's terrible with plants.
07:20He hired me out of the garden center I was working at.
07:23Just to make sure his plants were fed and watered right.
07:27And I knew it was wrong.
07:28And I just, my girlfriend Kelly Lynn, she just told me she was pregnant and I just.
07:33Don't worry about that.
07:34That's fine.
07:35But I gotta ask.
07:38How was it you didn't notice a freezer full of body parts?
07:43The freezer was in a storeroom that Clem kept locked.
07:45Before he hired me, he told me he was feeding the plants, ground up roadkill.
07:48I said that was no good.
07:50That the best thing for fly traps was mealworms.
07:52And so, then whenever I got there, there was a big bag of mealworms waiting for me.
07:57Well, according to the paper, the police found it with a big old bag of John Doe.
08:03Clem and I, we barely saw each other.
08:05And we spoke mostly of our Snapchat.
08:08I'd tell him what I needed, he'd make sure I got it.
08:10And then a couple of days ago, he sent me a message and said that he forgot to order the
08:15mealworms.
08:17And fly traps would have to go back to roadkill for a while.
08:24Don't you get it?
08:26Clem killed John Doe.
08:28And he was using me and the plants to get rid of the body.
08:30The cops, they want me to tell them who the dead guy is, but I can't.
08:34I don't, I don't know.
08:35Right, since they have to delete some messages after you read them, you can't prove Clem told you to do
08:40anything.
08:41You know, the night they arrested me, they made me look in the freezer.
08:45It was a torso, and the two arms and two legs, and the head and the hands were missing.
08:51But Clem didn't just cut the guy up, he carved him up too.
08:54What do you mean?
08:55The dead guy?
08:57His biceps and butt cheeks were missing.
09:00His biceps and butt cheeks were missing?
09:02But they have to be in that bag of meat that Clem gave me.
09:05Okay, them and the head and the hands all ground up.
09:07Please, I just want to go home to Kelly Lynn.
09:11I just want to help with the pregnancy.
09:14You have to find Clem.
09:25Yeah, look at those priors.
09:27She's not the one we're looking for.
09:29Print that for me, would you?
09:30It's just in the neighborhood.
09:31You want something?
09:32Well, can't a guy living in his ex-wife's pool house pay her new wife a visit without wanting something?
09:38I mean, please.
09:39If you didn't, you wouldn't be holding a bag of what I assume are pastelitos from my favorite bakery.
09:46All right.
09:47I caught a new case.
09:48Marcus Abernathy, he's accused of...
09:50Oh, yeah, turning some John Doe into plant food.
09:52Yes.
09:53Not my case.
09:53Can't help you.
09:54Okay, well, even if it is in your case, you could give me a wee peek at the case file.
09:58I got a lead on a new suspect I'd like for it.
10:01Clem Crayshaw.
10:01I just, I want to know if he's on your radar.
10:03That's all I want to know.
10:06Uh, meet me outside in ten minutes.
10:09I'll bring you the files.
10:10Really?
10:11No, idiot.
10:12Also, the house.
10:13Stop leaving the seat up.
10:15You leave with three women.
10:17Three, RJ.
10:24Kelly Lynn?
10:26It's Aloysius Aiken.
10:27I believe Marcus' public defender told you to expect me.
10:32So, um, Marcus' attorney said that you were friends with Marcus' dad or something?
10:38Yeah, Waylon.
10:39Yeah, me and him did a stretch together at Zephyril's Correctional about 20 years ago.
10:44You know, Waylon took me under his wing, helped me understand what it took to survive.
10:49Taught you how to make shivs and stuff like that?
10:51No.
10:52Um, the opposite.
10:54You know, he taught me how to keep a low profile, avoid conferences.
10:58If it weren't for old Waylon, a, uh, decent and thoughtful man, despite his penchant for
11:04cloning credit cards, ain't no way I'd have made it through.
11:09Marcus never really talked about him.
11:11Yeah, well, Marcus never got to know him.
11:14Yeah, Waylon was already serving his sentence when Marcus was born.
11:18And a couple of years later, Waylon was diagnosed with leukemia.
11:24Uh, herefore, he died in the infirmary.
11:27He made me promise to, uh, keep an eye on his boy.
11:31Make sure he didn't line up where we had.
11:34How's that going?
11:39Well, uh, need anything else?
11:42Let me know.
11:49Darla Sims?
11:50Hi.
11:51Uh, my name's RJ Decker.
11:52I'm a private investigator.
11:54I-I was hoping I could ask you a-a few questions about your ex-husband, Clem Crayshaw.
11:58Uh, can you come back at five?
12:01That's when I close.
12:03I'll answer any question you like.
12:07I mean, is there any reason why we can't talk right now?
12:10I'm at work.
12:12When I'm at work, talk is for customers.
12:16No.
12:17No.
12:18Clem is a crook and a so-so lay, but no way could he kill anyone.
12:23I mean, let alone cut him in pieces.
12:26Well, there is a John Doe in the morrow, you might say otherwise.
12:30Frame-up.
12:31Frame-up.
12:31It has to be.
12:32The Clem I know wouldn't hurt a fly.
12:34Uh, I take that back.
12:35He must have hurt flies with all the damn fly traps.
12:38Okay, so you knew about them?
12:40Sure.
12:41Did you know he was a poacher?
12:43I even went on a few expeditions with him and his pal Gary to North Carolina.
12:47Sorry, who's Gary?
12:48Is Gary a business partner?
12:49Drinking buddy.
12:49He has that flower shop on Cordova, Gary's Flowers.
12:53He would help Clem keep the little buggers alive and drive back to Port Lauderdale.
12:58Have you heard from Clem lately?
13:01Last time was about a year ago.
13:03I texted him that he was late on an alimony payment, and he replies with this.
13:12Oh.
13:13Hey, Moon, do you?
13:15Okay.
13:17What are these?
13:18Are these tattoos?
13:19Clem is a big Doors fan.
13:22The one on the left cheek is supposed to be Jim Morrison.
13:24I see that, yes.
13:26And on the right, you got most of the lyrics to the end.
13:28Ah.
13:28I didn't think it was funny, but he sure did.
13:35Does Clem have any other tattoos?
13:40Hey.
13:41Hey.
13:41Wish.
13:42We got a problem.
13:46Is that someone's rear you're showing me?
13:47Yeah, it's the rear of the guy Marcus was working for, Clem Crayshaw.
13:52The one he said had to be the real killer?
13:54Look at the tattoo.
13:58In the end, oh, that's pretty good.
14:01Actually, it's bad.
14:02According to his ex-wife, the only other tattoos he had were on his arms.
14:06Stick a dynamite on each bicep.
14:08So?
14:09So the body the police found in the freezer, it wasn't just missing his head and hands.
14:13It was missing his butt and biceps, too.
14:15Because if I'm right, it's because the killer wanted to get rid of all of John Doe's identifying features.
14:20Teeth, fingerprints, and tattoos.
14:23I don't think Clem put the body in the freezer.
14:26I think Clem was the body in the freezer.
14:30Marcus told you this Clem guy had to be the killer.
14:33Finding him was how you were going to clear Marcus of John Doe's murder.
14:37But if Clem is John Doe, who the hell was sending instructions to Marcus over Snapchat?
14:44Well, you're assuming somebody was.
14:48Wish.
14:49In this case, it's not about a payday for me.
14:51You know that I want to do right by you as badly as you want to do right by Waylon.
14:56But?
14:56But?
15:00You sure Marcus couldn't have done this?
15:03Hell, you mad at him? What do you think?
15:04Look, hear me out.
15:06Marcus found out he was having a baby.
15:07Maybe he realized he needed to make more money.
15:10So what?
15:11He kills his boss to take over his fly trap business?
15:14Uh-huh.
15:29Marcus didn't do this.
15:30You stay in the course, find a way to figure it out.
15:32But if the police don't already know Clem is John Doe, they're going to know soon.
15:35And they're going to turn up the heat on Marcus.
15:37Well, then you're going to have to work fast now, won't you?
15:41Okay.
15:44Good morning.
15:51Morning.
15:52Shoot.
15:53Sorry.
15:54I tried your office.
15:55It wasn't open yet.
15:56So you figured you'd wait out here like a stalker?
15:58I thought seeing me in a parking garage might bring back some pleasant memories.
16:04What do you want?
16:06Well, I have a new client.
16:08Marcus Abernathy.
16:09The police in the DA's office like him for murder, I don't.
16:13So?
16:14So the district attorney is a political ally of your dad's.
16:17I repeat, so?
16:20Listen, I'm flying a little blind here, okay?
16:23I want to know if the police have anything on Marcus other than him being in the vicinity of the
16:27body.
16:28I want to know if they looked at any other suspects.
16:30So you want me to flex a little Ochoa muscle, find out what the DA's office knows that you don't?
16:36Mm-hmm.
16:38So this is how we square things between us.
16:40Me doing you favors so you can make your 50 bucks an hour plus expenses.
16:45Oh, yeah.
16:46You know, you could go to prison for 18 months.
16:51Mm-hmm.
16:53What's your client's name?
17:02Knock, knock.
17:04I just wanted to come and say thanks for coming to see me yesterday.
17:09Brownies.
17:11Homemade.
17:14Well, aren't you sweet?
17:16Oh, please.
17:17For all you're doing, it isn't enough.
17:24Oh.
17:25Well, I can't believe that Marcus never told me that he knew an honest-to-goodness lottery winner.
17:33I did, um, Google you after you left.
17:37Saw your whole story.
17:38Oh.
17:39You know, I confess, I will never understand how so much good fortune landed on someone like me.
17:44But the Lord, like the Florida State Lottery Commission, works in mysterious...
17:52Like I said, the brownies aren't enough.
17:57No.
17:57No, no, no, ma'am.
17:59Uh-uh.
17:59No, no, no.
18:00Tell me that you don't like what you see?
18:04So, all I see, all I saw was a woman carrying the child of a young man who I care
18:11about like family.
18:12I'm not pregnant.
18:15I just told Marcus that to kick his butt into high gear.
18:19Get him making some real money.
18:24Did it ever occur to you that if you hadn't, then maybe he wouldn't have taken the job that ended
18:29up landing him in jail?
18:32Clothes back on.
18:34I will scream.
18:40I know that you care about Marcus, but he's a terrible provider.
18:45He promised me two years ago that we would move to Nashville,
18:49and now every time it comes up, it's just, oh, sorry, babe, can't afford it.
18:53And last month, when my car got impounded and I said that I needed it back, like, yesterday,
18:59oh, sorry, babe, can't afford it.
19:01Okay, so that's why you're here, because you think I got real money.
19:05No, it's because you're so good looking.
19:09If you're going to get Marcus out of jail, do it fast.
19:12We got bills piling up.
19:24Hey, how much for one of these?
19:26The big ones are 50, the small ones are 30.
19:29You know, it's funny, I didn't know fly traps were native to Florida.
19:33They're not.
19:36Oh.
19:38Let me guess, you have a guy.
19:39Uh, something like that.
19:41Is his name Clemmie Crayshaw, by any chance?
19:44Hi, I'm R.J. Decker, and I'm a private investigator.
19:47I probably should have started with that.
19:49You're Gary, correct?
19:50I got your name from Clemm's ex-wife, Darla.
19:53Am I in some sort of trouble?
19:54Well, Gary, that depends.
19:57You didn't happen to chop Clemm's head off so you could steal all his fly traps, did you?
20:03You really think that body they found was Clemm's?
20:07I do.
20:08Oh.
20:10Oh.
20:12You know those fly traps in there?
20:14Clemm didn't charge me for them.
20:16He would just come in sometimes and leave a few.
20:20And as far as killing him, for more?
20:22No.
20:23No, the ones inside, they've been there for weeks.
20:26Not really big sellers.
20:27Well, that's something I don't get.
20:29I mean, Clemm had thousands of them, and this girl has thousands.
20:32I mean, there must be a market for them.
20:34I don't know who Clemm sold his plans, too.
20:37I told him I didn't want to know.
20:38Well, if what you're saying is true, if Clemm really is gone, I'm not the one who did it.
20:56Hello.
20:57So tell me, what does a P.I. get up to while other people are out there doing his work
21:02for him?
21:02Well, this one's been looking up people arrested for a fly trap poaching in North Carolina to see if any
21:08of them may have drifted south to take over Clem Crayshaw's business.
21:11And?
21:12Well, I'm hoping you had better luck at the DA's office.
21:15Okay, I learned two things.
21:17First, you were right.
21:18The police do know John Doe as Clem Crayshaw.
21:21They were just waiting on DNA to confirm it.
21:23Second, Clem had a brother-in-law, Brody Weller.
21:27Last year, they got in a fight.
21:29Brody beat Clem Stupid.
21:30Clem's sister, Brody's wife, called the police.
21:33But when they got there, Clem declined to press charges.
21:37Now, look, I don't have your keen investigative mind, but I'd say that's a pretty good alternate suspect, wouldn't you?
21:43Any idea where I can find him?
21:45All I got was a work address, but if you're going to go there, you should probably bring some singles.
22:06Do you like what you see?
22:11Sorry, what?
22:12I said, do you like what you see?
22:14For a hundred box, Hanson, he'll dance just for you.
22:17Oh, well, yeah, hey, good to know, good to know.
22:20Actually, no, I'm looking for an old buddy of mine, Brody Weller.
22:23Don't tell me.
22:24You two used to dance together.
22:26Very good, very good.
22:27Little place down in Orlando.
22:28You're not looking for more work, you're not looking for more work, are you?
22:30Because I could always use another horse in the stable.
22:35You know, sadly, I blew up my knee years ago.
22:39Well, take it from an expert, you've still got it where it counts.
22:43Whoa!
22:44Oh, my goodness.
22:45Uh, is Brody around for any chance?
22:48At least taking the stage at this very moment.
22:50Look at you!
22:53If you're going to stick around, it's a $20 cover charge and a two-drink minimum, even for old buddies.
23:00Okay.
23:16Yes, what's up?
23:18You know, I get detective work isn't cheap, but I'm looking at this tab I'm running, and I had to
23:23ask, are you really trying to expense a pedicure?
23:27One, yeah, I am. Two, I'm kind of in the middle of something.
23:30Oh, what, a massage and a little problem with therapy, perhaps?
23:34No, I'm waiting to talk to a new suspect, Cresha's brother-in-law.
23:38He doesn't get off work for a few hours, so I thought I'd take a peek inside his car.
23:41If he is the one that chopped up Clem, there might be blood evidence.
23:44You planning on getting inside his car how, exactly?
23:48You really want to know?
23:49Need I remind you, you're on conditional release.
23:53You get caught breaking into a car, they'll violate you back to prison.
23:56Oh, that's a good thing I'm not very good at picking locks.
23:58Arge?
23:59Look, I knew when I got into this line of work, there might be the occasional bend of the law.
24:03This isn't a bend, okay? This is a break, as in breaking and interning.
24:08Would you rather Marcus go to prison instead?
24:10Right, that's what I thought. Okay, I gotta go. I'll call you if I find something.
24:12Okay, but Arge?
24:17I did it!
24:19Yeah, you did.
24:25I don't get why we don't just call the cops.
24:27Oh, really, Stevie? Well, I can think of plenty of reasons.
24:30Like you having more HGH in your locker than, I don't know, a hundred pharmacies, for example?
24:34Listen, she's right, guys. You don't need to call the cops.
24:37I'm not a car thief. I'm a private investigator.
24:40Yeah, right, right. And Ramone here? Ramone's a real boxer.
24:43Well, I only came to ask Brody here a few questions about his brother-in-law.
24:47Clem? Why the hell do you want to talk about Clem?
24:51Well, because he's dead.
24:53Clem's dead?
24:55I still can't believe Clem's gone.
24:58First Lacey, now him.
24:59Who's Lacey?
25:02My wife. Clem's sister.
25:04She passed a few months ago.
25:06Hodgkin's lymphoma.
25:08I'm truly sorry about that.
25:10You came here because you thought maybe I killed Clem, right?
25:13Well, yeah, you did beat him up pretty bad last year.
25:16Once upon a time, we were pals.
25:19That all changed after Lacey got diagnosed.
25:22I wanted her to do every little thing the doctors told her.
25:25But Clem was so damn sure that his stupid fly traps were the answer.
25:29I'm sorry.
25:30How would Clem's fly traps have helped with Lacey's cancer?
25:33I don't get that.
25:34You know who he was selling them to, right?
25:35I mean, I assumed it was people that collect exotic plants.
25:39A buddy of his made it sound like that wouldn't explain the volume of his crop, so I don't know.
25:44There's this holistic medicine company, Venusian Health.
25:47They would buy Clem's fly traps in bulk and then, I don't know, grind them up or something,
25:53sell what's left as an extract.
25:55Here in the U.S., they're allowed to promote it as an immunity modulator.
26:00But that's only because that's all the FDA will allow.
26:03In other countries, places with looser standards, they're allowed to say that it can do a whole lot more.
26:08What, like treated cancer?
26:09Something about how the extract can eliminate abnormal cells without harming the normal ones.
26:14Clemden used to be all holistic.
26:16Over the years, the more Venusian Health bought from him, the more he started to buy what they were selling.
26:20The idea that fly trap extract could help or even save people like Lacey.
26:24That's why I kicked him out of our house that night.
26:26I just couldn't listen to it anymore.
26:29Man, the thing is, though, after Lacey passed, Clem did a 180.
26:34He said he was going to do like a deep dive into all things Venusian Health.
26:37Can I tell you what he meant by that?
26:39No.
26:42But last week, he left me this voicemail.
26:46Brody, I just wanted to say I'm sorry.
26:49All the false hope I gave Lacey, all the false hope Venusian gave me, I want you to know they're
26:55not going to get away with it.
26:56I love you, brother.
26:59Last Tuesday.
27:00Is that important?
27:02Well, as far as I've been able to tell, that's right around the last time anyone saw Clem alive.
27:11Is that you, RJ, or does my wife need to get her gun?
27:14It's me.
27:15No need for gunplay.
27:16Well, matter of opinion.
27:23Hey.
27:24Oh.
27:24Oh, my God.
27:25What happened to your face?
27:25No, forget the face.
27:26Why do you smell like stripper?
27:29The answer to both questions is it's complicated.
27:31Uh, are you free tomorrow morning?
27:34Why?
27:35Oh, he needs a favor.
27:36I can smell that on him, too.
27:38Actually, I'd be the one doing the favor.
27:40Uh, I may have a story for you in the Herald.
27:43A big one.
27:45One thing that never ceases to amaze me is the number of people who think the idea of treating disease
27:50with carnivorous plants is just some passing fat.
27:54The fluid from unopened monkey pitchers has been used to treat incontinence for centuries.
27:59In renaissance, Italy, the best, most effective aphrodisiac was a cordial water made from drossera rotondafolia.
28:11Uh, do you need me to spell that?
28:13No, thanks.
28:14I'll look it up.
28:15Not most in the mainstream media tend to look down their noses at alternative medicine.
28:19I commend the Broward County Herald for exploring what we do instead of trying to tear it down.
28:24Well, like I said on the phone, I guarantee the piece I'm writing isn't about the efficacy of your product.
28:29But I couldn't help noticing that in other countries it's advertised as treatment for cancer.
28:34Here in the U.S. it's only ever described as an immunity booster.
28:38Uh, my lawyers, they're very good.
28:41They'd probably tell me I shouldn't even dignify that question.
28:44And they would definitely tell me it would be wrong to suggest that the American FDA is deep in the
28:49pocket of big pharma.
28:51I think your photographer's a little lost.
28:54Hey, not much for you to see back there.
28:55Oh, yeah.
28:56Do you want to get one of me near the logo?
28:58Great.
29:04Here?
29:05Uh, that would be great, yeah.
29:06Yeah, that's good.
29:08Yeah, right there.
29:09Good.
29:10Hydrogen peroxide, I don't suppose that's one of your secret ingredients?
29:13Why would it be?
29:14Based on my research, some homeopathic practitioners say it can treat dementia and enhance immune system function.
29:20This despite the fact that toxicity from the stuff can lead to hemorrhagic gastritis and organ rupture.
29:25You're forgetting mucosal blistering.
29:27That's why our hydrogen peroxide is just to clean the floors around here.
29:31The, uh, the fly traps you use to make your extracts, they come from a grower named Clem Crayshaw.
29:38Is that right?
29:40Well, the name rings a bell, but I'd have to go back and check on that.
29:43Why is he asking me questions?
29:45Clem Crayshaw was murdered last week.
29:48The police think he was killed by a kid who worked for him, but an anonymous source left me with
29:52the impression it might be someone else.
29:53There was a break in here last week, yeah?
29:56Your assistant called it in, told the police your computer was missing, then you showed up, said it wasn't, you
30:00just took it home to do some work.
30:01Point being?
30:02Well, I just, I don't know, I just, I can't help but wondering.
30:06Was it Clem that broke in here?
30:08It was.
30:09Did he take your computer?
30:12And if he did, what do you find?
30:16I found rumors that the approvals you received to promote your extract as a cancer treatment in Belgium, Hungary, and
30:22Portugal could only have been the result of bribes.
30:25Okay.
30:25If the rumors are true, maybe there was some record of those payoffs on your computer.
30:29This interview's over.
30:31But please, don't forget what I said.
30:34My lawyers are very good.
30:42So, is he a guy?
30:43Oh, no doubt about it.
30:50George, thanks for coming.
30:52My pleasure.
30:53Detective Abreu, but it's still Georgiana.
30:56So, you said in your email that you wanted to talk about the Marcus Abernathy case, but if memory serves,
31:00it isn't yours to discuss.
31:02You got me, Georgiana.
31:04Or do you prefer ADA Ballard?
31:06Either will do.
31:07The case is Detective Canty's, but he and I spoke, and he agreed you should hear what my associate has
31:14to tell you.
31:14Why do I recognize that man?
31:18Probably because your office prosecuted him for assault a couple years ago.
31:23So, if I'm following, you believe that Marcus Abernathy is innocent.
31:28You think the more likely perpetrator is this man, Remington Aubrey.
31:33Like we said, there's been rumors of bribes in other countries.
31:35Rumors don't tend to mean much in a courtroom.
31:38Look, give us some time to dig up more evidence on Aubrey.
31:41That's all we're asking.
31:41Clem Creshaw was sending instructions to Marcus over Snapchat.
31:45Somehow that correspondence continued after he was dead.
31:48If we're right, it's because Aubrey took his phone after he killed him.
31:51He's the one who told Marcus to feed the plants that bag of Clem's remains.
31:55If it hadn't have been for the raid, Aubrey would have kept using Marcus until every last bit of Clem
31:59was gone.
32:00Get a subpoena.
32:01Search Aubrey's home, search his business.
32:03Who knows, maybe we find Clem's phone.
32:04There's no point.
32:06How could you look at all this and say there's no point?
32:08Because Marcus Abernathy took a plea deal this morning.
32:11He confessed to everything.
32:13He's our killer.
32:16Sorry, guys.
32:17I had a long talk with my lawyer.
32:19But this way they'd take the death penalty off the table.
32:23No more murder charge.
32:26Just...
32:28Aggravated manslaughter.
32:30Just 30 years.
32:32But with good behavior, I could be out in 20.
32:36And you know I'm going to be well-behaved, Mr. Akin.
32:41You didn't do it, Marcus.
32:43Yeah, I mean, of course I didn't.
32:45But come on, guys.
32:47I got a good woman at home.
32:49I got a kid on the way.
32:50It's too much to live for to take a chance on a trial.
32:54Right?
32:56Hey.
32:57I could get him a new lawyer.
32:59Tell him Marcus changed his mind.
33:00He wants to plead not guilty.
33:02Well, you can do that, but that won't make the confession go away.
33:05The DA's office will still be able to use it at trial.
33:09Hey.
33:10I'm right here.
33:14And I told you.
33:15I'm okay.
33:17It's all going to be okay.
33:21Do you guys know who's taking care of the plants now?
33:24What's that?
33:25They're fly traps.
33:26I was thinking about them yesterday.
33:28Do you know if the police are tending to them or if...
33:31Uh...
33:31Well, I can look into that for you.
33:34Yeah.
33:34Just make sure they're not overfeeding the old guys.
33:37I mean, last count, there were 24,338 plants.
33:39That works out to 10.2 pounds of food per feeding, one feeding per week.
33:42Anything more and you're going to lose a few.
33:44Um...
33:44Jayden.
33:47Did you work all that math out yourself?
33:50Huh?
33:51Yeah.
33:52The day Clem told me he was going to bring me that bag of meat, I had to tell him
33:56more
33:57than once.
33:5810.2 pounds, Clem.
33:59Nothing more.
34:01And, uh, I guess it wasn't actually Clem, it was the other guy.
34:06But, uh, still, I mean, he listened.
34:07Next time I weighed the bag, it was just right.
34:11Did you know the human head weighs eight pounds?
34:15Look.
34:17Jay McGuire, the cute little kid with glasses of blonde hair.
34:20Remember him?
34:20Uh, yeah.
34:21I didn't see that one.
34:22Hold on, I'll show you a gun.
34:26The average human head actually weighs 11 pounds.
34:29Oh, that's great.
34:30Well, next maybe you can tell us the, uh, airspeed and velocity of an unladen swallow.
34:34No, no, no, no, no.
34:35If you add up all of Clem's body parts, head, hands, butt cheeks, biceps, all of his missing
34:40parts, it must weigh, what, 20 pounds, more?
34:42Marcus just said the bag that Aubrey left for him weighed exactly 10.2 pounds.
34:46If that was the case, then where's the rest of Clem?
34:51Why hasn't it turned up yet?
34:56Hey.
35:00How's the food here?
35:05Hey.
35:06As much fun as it was to meet ADA Ballard today, do you know anyone else that can get us
35:10a warrant
35:10to search Remington Aubrey's warehouse?
35:13Why?
35:14Pretty sure I know how we can prove he killed Clem Creshawn.
35:23Mr. Aubrey.
35:25Detective, I would hate you.
35:26I believe you already met Mr. Decker.
35:28Hello.
35:29I was asked to be here by 9.
35:31It's Holmes 11.
35:32Is it?
35:33If the lack of common courtesy isn't on the list of reasons to defund you people, it should
35:37be.
35:39Well, I'm not a cop.
35:40I'm a PI.
35:41But if it makes you feel any better, I am pretty defunded.
35:44Reason we're late is my colleagues needed a little time to execute a search warrant at
35:49your warehouse.
35:51What could the police possibly have been looking for at my warehouse?
35:54Uh, the rest of Clem Creshawn?
35:57When you were using his phone to pretend to be him, Marcus Abernathy told you that Clem's
36:01flat traps could only take 10.2 pounds of food per feeding.
36:04Problem was, you had at least twice that, didn't you?
36:07Most of Clem was found in his freezer.
36:09A little more was in the bag Marcus was holding when he was arrested.
36:12But some of Clem was still out there.
36:15And the question was where and why?
36:18Part of the why was Marcus' insistence in only feeding the plants 10.2 pounds of meat.
36:23But I think the rest of it had to do with how damn hard it would have been to get
36:26a human
36:27head inside of a meat grinder.
36:29Clem was my sole supplier of Venus flat traps.
36:32Why would I kill him?
36:33Why would I hurt my own business?
36:35Probably because he was about to hurt a lot more.
36:37He stole your computer.
36:39And there was something on it that would have proven your company isn't on the level.
36:43So you killed him.
36:47Hey, you ever heard of Piranha Solution?
36:51No.
36:52It's basically sulfuric acid on crack.
36:54I learned about this stuff when they did time with a guy that tried to use it to burn through
36:57the top of a safe he was breaking into.
36:59Did he just say he was an ex-convict?
37:01This guy's plan did not work out so well.
37:03All he made to do was start a fire.
37:05See, Piranha Solution can be a little unpredictable when it comes to metal.
37:08But what it's really good at, almost 100% of the time, is turning bone and flesh into soup.
37:15Piranha Solution only has two ingredients.
37:18One, Mr. Decker already mentioned, sulfuric acid.
37:21And the other is hydrogen peroxide.
37:23Yesterday, you said you had a barrel of that stuff to clean the floors.
37:26But see this one here?
37:27See this barrel here?
37:28See where it's all turned to the wall.
37:29And you can just make it at the SUL.
37:31And that got me thinking, what if it's filled with sulfuric acid?
37:34After you realized you couldn't use Marcus and the fly traps to get rid of a human skull,
37:39you ordered both of these barrels through your company, you mixed their contents in the sink
37:43at your warehouse, and then in went Mr. Crayshaw's head.
37:51Or was there some of the reason you didn't want me taking pictures of it?
37:55These are two partially dissolved teeth CSU found in the sink's drain trap a little while ago.
38:01And this is the bullet for a nine-millimeter pistol.
38:07You're the registered owner of a nine-millimeter pistol, aren't you?
38:19Scott, your message, but if you ask me to come here because you're having second thoughts
38:26about us getting together...
38:27I most assuredly am not.
38:31Okay.
38:32And why am I here?
38:33Our boy Marcus is about to be released from jail.
38:36Police finally realize he isn't a killer.
38:38You could have just said so in your text.
38:40Hey, hey.
38:42How's my timing?
38:43In the nick of, buddy.
38:45You know, this goes on my bill, right?
38:51Anything else?
38:52Uh, yeah.
38:53I'm throwing Marcus a little welcome home party on the beach tonight.
38:58The reason I wanted to tell you in person is...
39:00So I wanted to make sure you weren't there.
39:06Well, last time I checked, this is America, and I can go where I want.
39:09Well, it is, and you can.
39:13Actually, it's the other reason why I wanted you to stop by.
39:22My car?
39:25Well, you got it out of impound?
39:29I paid.
39:31My friend handled the transport.
39:33You know, the other day, you said you'd rather be living in Nashville, but you didn't
39:38say why.
39:43My sister lives there.
39:45It's not like we're close or anything, but she writes me sometimes and makes it sound...
39:53I don't know.
39:55Nice.
39:58Go there.
39:59Try to find nice.
40:01So whatever you're looking for right now, it ain't here in Fort Lauderdale, and it ain't
40:07with Marcus.
40:11All I've been is bad to you.
40:13Why are you being so good to me?
40:16You remind me of someone.
40:21I loved her, and yet, had someone sent her off to Nashville way back when, well, things
40:30would have ended up better for the both of us.
40:38You drive safe now.
40:40You drive safe now.
40:42You're not done.
40:43You drive safe now, but not everybody knows you.
40:44You drive safe now.
40:45You're all in need with the people.
40:46Let go.
41:03You're all in need with the people.
41:07You're all in need with your family.
41:09No, no I would not.
41:11What happened to your eye?
41:13This?
41:15Misunderstanding.
41:19You want a beer?
41:20No. No? I'm not staying.
41:22You're not staying?
41:24Mostly just came to see if we're even now.
41:26You gave me a name. You gave me one name.
41:29One name.
41:30Turned out the guy didn't even do it.
41:32What's your obsession with us getting even? What is that?
41:34If we get even too fast, there won't be any reason
41:37for me to call you anymore.
41:38No, I mean...
41:40Is that what you want?
41:42Getting too close to a family like mine
41:44could earn you a return trip to Appalachee.
41:47Is that what you want?
41:48I don't know what I want.
41:53Not yet.
41:56Well, then for tonight, it's probably best
41:58to just celebrate what we've got.
42:01In my case, an 8 o'clock reservation
42:03staccato.
42:05You and the other dirtbags have fun.
42:32You and the other dirtbags have fun.
42:44It's a huge part, right?
42:45You might need to have fun.
42:47It's just been a bit more fun.
42:47I think I have to go home.
42:47I could do anything.
42:47You and the other one.
42:49You
