00:06:52Beatrix, you're fishing. Now, you know, she always gets her inspiration from real life.

00:12:43Marie, hi.
00:12:46They brought me his mail by mistake.
00:12:49Enjoying yourself here?
00:12:50Yes, I am.
00:12:52I wonder if I could borrow some milk.
00:12:55Certainly, yeah.
00:13:00Wow, you haven't fixed it up.
00:13:04Did he?
00:13:05About the bedrooms.
00:13:07Um, well, actually, I don't know.
00:13:11Isn't this cozy?
00:13:13This is where you work?
00:13:14Yeah, I, um, work here.
00:13:17I didn't know you liked photography.
00:13:19Well, actually, it's, um, just a hobby.
00:13:30How about that milk?
00:13:35There you go.
00:13:37I owe you one.
00:13:38If there's ever anything, you know.
00:13:40Actually, you know what?
00:13:41Um, I have a question.
00:13:44The house next door.
00:13:46He's a cutie, isn't he?
00:13:48He lives there alone?
00:13:50Technically, it's his father's house.
00:13:52One of his little cottages.
00:13:55The Ellery's are the royalty of Christina Lake.
00:13:58Michael is even richer than he is handsome.
00:14:02How'd you like the muffins?
00:14:04Oh, they were fantastic.
00:14:12I had a, I had a couple.
00:14:23Well, dear reader, I must tell you that I am officially infatuated with the boy next door.
00:14:29Over these recent weeks, he has become my inspiration.
00:14:33My muse.
00:14:35With each passing day, I find myself irresistibly drawn to him.
00:14:41Mesmerized by his clear blue eyes and ready smile.
00:14:45Entranced by his broad shoulders, his sculpted arms.
00:14:50Watching him from my window, fantasizing about this mysterious stranger,
00:14:53I found the inspiration I needed for my next novel.
00:14:57But there's so much more to confess.
00:15:00Sometimes I lie in bed, wondering what it would be like if he were here.
00:15:07Finally, after such a long, long time, I feel completely and totally alive.
00:15:37I don't know, doesn't that feel, isn't it?
00:15:39I thought I'm okay.
00:15:47For heaven's sake.
00:15:50Oh, there she is.
00:15:52Oh, you like the display?
00:15:53Oh, you know what?
00:15:54We thought maybe you could do a little book signing.
00:15:57Well, I really wanted to stay low profile, if possible.
00:16:00How's the book going?
00:16:01Very good.
00:16:02I just finished chapter 10.
00:16:04Oh, well, you know what?
00:16:06I'm not going to ask you what it's about.
00:16:07I know that writers don't like to, you know, share.
00:16:10But who gets murdered?
00:16:12She's a mystery writer, Bea.
00:16:14Someone always gets murdered.
00:16:15Is it going to be her?
00:16:16Just pretend you're hard of hearing.
00:16:18That's what I do.
00:16:19Actually, I'm doing some research.
00:16:21I want to know if you guys could tell me anything about the Ellery family.
00:16:24What do you want to know?
00:16:25Well, I'm basing some of the characters in my book on them.
00:16:29Just some classic, wealthy, powerful figures.
00:16:33Well, wealthy and powerful both sums it up.
00:16:35He owns this building.
00:16:36What about his son?
00:16:38Michael.
00:16:38Yeah.
00:16:39Well, I know the old man would like him to follow in his footsteps, especially since the wife died.
00:16:43You know kids.
00:16:44Mines are their own.
00:16:45They just...
00:16:46Beatrix.
00:16:46She doesn't have any children.
00:16:48I read your blog.
00:16:50Love.
00:16:51Thanks, guys.
00:16:52Thanks.
00:16:53Have a good day.
00:16:53Bye.
00:16:53What do you mean?
00:16:55I read her blog.
00:16:55Research.
00:16:58Oh, jeez.
00:16:59Sorry.
00:16:59Sorry.
00:17:00It's okay.
00:17:02It's Sarah, right?
00:17:03Yeah.
00:17:04Guess I'll see you around.
00:17:09Guess I'll see you around.
00:17:42What do you mean?
00:17:45Oh.
00:17:46Oh.
00:17:47Oh.

00:21:40Let's go.
00:21:57We're here, over.
00:22:01Still waiting on you?
00:22:03Excuse me.
00:22:04Roger that.
00:22:06Hi.
00:22:10Can you help me?
00:22:12Yeah, what's, uh, what's going on?
00:22:15And you are?
00:22:17Sarah Wild.
00:22:19I'm just renting this house over here.
00:22:23Did you know Michael Ellery, Ms. Wild?
00:22:25He's my neighbor. Why?
00:22:28Mike Ellery's body washed up on North Beach early this morning.
00:22:33What?
00:22:36He's dead?
00:22:38How well did you know Mr. Ellery?
00:22:39Did you have much contact with him?
00:22:41Uh, I didn't...
00:22:43Ma'am?
00:22:45No.
00:22:46No, no, no, no, not, not, not really.
00:22:51Did you see anyone suspicious hanging out at the house?
00:22:55I saw a motorcycle here last night.
00:22:57Motorcycle?
00:22:58What kind of motorcycle?
00:23:00I don't know.
00:23:02It was just parked in front of the house.
00:23:05Okay.
00:23:06Anything else?
00:23:10He had a date the other night.
00:23:13Date?
00:23:15How exactly would you know that, Ms. Wild?
00:23:17I was inside the house.
00:23:19I heard a car.
00:23:20I looked out the window and I saw her.
00:23:24Okay.
00:23:25Well, here's my card.
00:23:27If you didn't get anything else, I'll be in touch.
00:23:30I'll be in touch.
00:24:18Yeah.
00:24:23All right, watch that.
00:24:24Okay.
00:24:27What do we know?
00:24:28Emmy says time of death was two nights ago.
00:24:31What else?
00:24:32The amount of water in his system.
00:24:34He figures the body was in the water for about a day post-mortem.
00:24:39You still thinking the dam?
00:24:43Fibers found on Michael's body suggest that he was wearing a silk shirt.
00:24:46We find the shirt, we might be able to pull some of the killer's DNA.
00:24:49Well, keep looking.
00:24:52Get a hold of Wilson.
00:24:53Get him to spray the scene with luminol.
00:24:54See how meticulous he was.
00:25:04Walsh, any sign of forced entry?
00:25:06No, sir.
00:25:08Doors, windows, locks, everything was pristine.
00:25:20What about the neighbor?
00:25:23She said she didn't see anything, but she acted a little strange when I told her what happened.
00:25:30All right, keep me informed.
00:25:33Yes, sir.
00:25:43What surprised me was the camera.
00:25:46I mean, in her office, up above, in the window, and across the way.
00:26:19It's terrible, isn't it?
00:26:20You're not safe anywhere anymore.
00:26:23I wouldn't do such a thing.
00:26:29I heard his father was going to post a reward.
00:26:31How much?
00:26:33I don't know.
00:26:34A million? Two?
00:26:36Heck of a question though, huh?
00:26:37How much is your son worth?
00:26:41You, uh, want a refill?
00:26:43No.
00:26:44No, I'm fine, thanks.
00:26:45Okay.
00:27:02Ms. Wild!
00:27:08Yes?
00:27:10Chief Serres.
00:27:11I wonder if I could escort you back to the station for a little chat.
00:27:15Please.
00:27:44Where were you the night before last?
00:27:46Miss Wilde. Look, I already told you, deputy. Humor me. I was home. Alone? I was writing.
00:27:55Writing? My new novel. All night? Yes, all night. So you never saw or heard anything?
00:28:06He had a date. Can you describe the date? Medium height, dark brown hair.
00:28:16What else? I saw a motorcycle parked outside his house last night.
00:28:20Can you describe it? Color, license plate.
00:28:24No, it was dark. I saw him arguing with somebody on his boat a couple days ago.
00:28:31Let me guess. You have no idea who that was either? Nope.
00:28:37A lot of leads, nowhere to go, don't you think? What was your relationship with Michael Ellery?
00:28:42Wait a second. What are you getting at?
00:28:43Well, you might have been the last person to see him alive.
00:28:48Am I a suspect?
00:28:49I'm just trying to put the pieces together.
00:28:51I told you everything that I know.
00:28:53You haven't told me about your relationship with Michael.
00:28:55There was no relationship. He lived next door.
00:28:58Never contacted him?
00:28:59We introduced ourselves. We said hi a couple of times. That is it.
00:29:03Okay.
00:29:09How's the new book coming?
00:29:12Fine.
00:29:14What's it about?
00:29:15Murder mystery.
00:29:17All my books are mysteries.
00:29:19Involving romance?
00:29:22Sometimes.
00:29:23This time?
00:29:25Yeah.
00:29:27About what?
00:29:29Older woman and a younger man?
00:29:32I took a look at your book.
00:29:34We got a search warrant for your house.
00:29:36Confiscated your computer.
00:29:37Wait a second. You were in my house?
00:29:38You took my computer?
00:29:40Michael's death really gave you a lot to write about, didn't it?
00:29:44Oh, thank God.
00:29:45I also took a look at your blog.
00:29:50I find myself mesmerized by his clear blue eyes, entranced by his broad shoulders and sculpted arms.
00:29:57You've got to be kidding me.
00:29:59Sound like anyone we know?
00:30:01Where are you going with this?
00:30:04You see, I have a theory, Miss Wilde.
00:30:08Only divorcee moves to a quaint town, rents a cottage in the water beside a very handsome, very wealthy guy
00:30:15who happens to be quite a bit younger than her.
00:30:18So, she chooses not to pursue, but she watches.
00:30:24Writes about it in her blog, bewares what he eats, who he dates, who's hanging out at his house.
00:30:31And then one day, frustration of this hidden lust, having taken its toll, drives her into a jealous rage.
00:30:40I'm not a writer or anything. What do you think?
00:30:44I'm a writer.
00:30:46I draw inspiration from the things around me.
00:30:55In this divorce file, your ex-husband claimed that you were unstable. Are you still taking your medication?
00:31:00Okay, okay, you know what? I've had enough of this. Am I being charged or not?
00:31:04No.
00:31:05Great.
00:31:07Miss Wilde.
00:31:08Don't leave town? You got it.
00:31:11Something like that.
00:31:12Did you take those blood samples to the lab?
00:31:33You weren't letting her go?
00:31:36Edward, I've got nothing to hold her on.
00:31:38What about her writings? Huh? What about that stuff on the internet?
00:31:43For all we know, she murdered my boy.
00:31:46I understand you believe that.
00:31:48But we don't have enough evidence to...
00:31:50You know what? I will call Mayor Warnwright if I have to.
00:31:53You do what you need to do.
00:31:55My job is to conduct a proper investigation.
00:31:57We will find out who killed your son, Edward.
00:32:00I know her body.
00:32:01I don't want to kill her.
00:32:09I've got enough evidence to kill you before.
00:32:12I know.
00:32:13I know.
00:32:17Is that real?
00:32:24How many help are you anymore?
00:32:25Are you going to approve me?lichenenanigans.
00:32:27What am I gonna
00:32:29tell you guys anymore?
00:32:31Oh, my God.
00:33:13Oh, my God.
00:33:33Oh, my God.
00:33:35Oh, my God.
00:33:39Oh, my God.
00:33:50Oh, my God.
00:34:01Oh, my God.
00:34:18Oh, my God.
00:34:47Oh, my God.
00:35:17Still, it's the sun we're talking about, Walsh.
00:35:21Looks like you have a visitor.
00:35:22I guess you made quite an impression.
00:35:25I'll catch up with you, Dave.
00:35:28Hi.
00:35:29Hi.
00:35:29What's up?
00:35:30Can I help you?
00:35:31Well, I would really love to have my laptop back.
00:35:34I'm sorry about your computer's evidence.
00:35:37Look, I haven't been charged.
00:35:39All right, you've seen what you want to see.
00:35:40I just need it to work.
00:35:42If you'd like, I could just file for a motion under rule, I could save you all the headaches on
00:35:49the paperwork, and you could just give it to me.
00:35:50What do you say?
00:35:51All right.
00:35:52Wait here.
00:36:02I shouldn't be doing this, but...
00:36:04I really appreciate it.
00:36:12Chief, don't we need that computer for evidence?
00:36:16Don't worry.
00:36:17We've copied everything on the hard drive.
00:36:23We've got some images.
00:36:30We've got some pictures.
00:36:37We'll see you next time.
00:36:37We're going to see you next time.
00:36:49I don't know.
00:37:11TUNES
00:37:13TUNES
00:42:30Jason, where can I find him?
00:42:32What do you want with that guy?
00:42:33I've got so much I can offer you.
00:42:36Lewis, please.
00:42:41I'll be right back, I'll be right back.
00:43:07I'll be here when he breaks your heart.
00:43:25I'll be right back.
00:43:42Hi.
00:43:48You're that woman, you're that woman, you're that woman that killed Michael.
00:43:52I saw you at his house the other day.
00:43:55I don't know what you're talking about, I know what you're talking about, I know what you're saying?
00:44:02I know what you're talking about.
00:44:30You're right, you're going to ask for him.
00:44:30You're going to help me.
00:44:32You're going to say, dude.
00:44:34You're right.
00:44:37You're right.
00:44:38Who'd you kill?
00:44:39At the movies.
00:44:41Alone?
00:44:43With a girl.
00:44:45And she could testify to that?
00:44:46Yeah, yeah. I'd show you the stubs if the chief didn't take them already.
00:44:50Can I get the check?
00:44:51What about Michael?
00:44:54Did he have a girlfriend?
00:44:55I mean, do you know of anybody that would have run over to his house that night?
00:45:00He was loaded and famous, okay? He got plenty of tail.
00:45:03Yeah.
00:45:06Names?
00:45:08You really want to know?
00:45:10I do.
00:45:13Nicole Warner, right there.
00:45:16Warner.
00:45:17Who's she?
00:45:19They had a thing a while ago, but I don't think she ever got over him.
00:45:24Not even after her husband beat the crap out of him.
00:45:27Husband?
00:45:28Have fun.
00:45:31No, um...
00:45:32Who is her husband?
00:45:34Who were you married to?
00:45:36Who were you married to?
00:45:40Who were you married to?
00:46:02Hey, can I get a, uh, coffee to go?
00:46:05I need a basket.
00:46:07Thanks.
00:46:18Oh, sorry.
00:46:20Sarah, wait.
00:46:22Please.
00:46:25How are you holding?
00:46:26Not too bad, considering the entire town thinks I'm a murderer.
00:46:31Well, I don't.
00:46:32And I, that is B.
00:46:33You've been reading your books for years.
00:46:36You're better than anyone in this town.
00:46:38You didn't kill that kid.
00:46:42So, the police, they have any leads?
00:46:45I don't know.
00:46:46I'm not really in the loop.
00:46:48Then why didn't you just leave?
00:46:50I can't.
00:46:50I, uh, I don't think that would look too good.
00:46:54It doesn't look very good now.
00:46:57I don't know.
00:46:58I got a point.
00:47:00And did you ever hear anything about Mayor Warner going after Michael?
00:47:03The mayor?
00:47:04No.
00:47:05But you know, if it's gossip you want, you've got a doctor to be.
00:47:09I might just do that.
00:47:10Oh, thanks.
00:47:13Okay.
00:47:13I don't know.
00:47:59Get off the tail!
00:48:13Get off the tail!
00:48:23Get off the tail!
00:48:29Get off the tail!
00:48:44Get off the tail!
00:49:07Get off the tail!
00:49:17Right on my tail.
00:49:18Just trying to run me off the road.
00:49:20Funny, I don't see anyone.
00:49:24No, but that's...
00:49:26They're gone already.
00:49:28Right.
00:49:29You know, if I were you, I'd think about trying to keep a low profile.
00:49:33Stay out of trouble.
00:49:37Okay.
00:49:38I'll be right back.
00:50:11I'll be right back.
00:50:55Stop.
00:50:57Stop.
00:50:58What?
00:50:59Well, obviously, whoever killed Michael thinks that I'm onto them.
00:51:02Then why is that?
00:51:04You don't think I'm just going to sit here and let you tighten the noose around my neck,
00:51:07do you?
00:51:08I know a thing or two about investigation.
00:51:10Some people think I should have already arrested you.
00:51:13So why haven't you?
00:51:14Because unlike them, I believe people are innocent until proven guilty.
00:51:17Did your deputy tell you about the little incident with the car?
00:51:21You mean the speeding ticket?
00:51:22I was being chased.
00:51:23I never saw anyone.
00:51:24They sped off.
00:51:25Miss Wilde...
00:51:26What has to happen here before you'll open your eyes and see that there is something going
00:51:29on?
00:51:30What, a conspiracy?
00:51:32I'm being set up.
00:51:34It's obvious.
00:51:35By who?
00:51:37I assure you, we are investigating every possible angle.
00:51:40Right.
00:51:41Okay.
00:51:41Well, are you investigating this angle in here?
00:51:44Huh?
00:51:48It's quite the mess.
00:51:51It's quite the mess.
00:51:53It's quite the mess.
00:51:53That's it?
00:51:56You're not going to dust for prints or check for witnesses or anything?
00:51:59It's just quite the mess?
00:52:02Miss Wilde, I'm in the middle of a rather large, rather important murder investigation.
00:52:07Now, as much as I would love to be able to claim that I have the type of omniscient crime
00:52:11lab that one might encounter in, say, one of your novels, I again assure you, my men
00:52:17are working as hard as they can.
00:52:19Yeah.
00:52:20Yeah, your deputy looked really overworked when he wrote me that speeding ticket.
00:52:25You know, anybody could have written that note.
00:52:29Maybe even you.
00:52:31But damn, Miss Wilde.
00:52:42So I've got that information for you from my friend at the DMV.
00:52:45There are exactly six Mustangs registered in that town.
00:52:49Really, six?
00:52:50Mm-hmm.
00:52:51Three vintage, two convertible, and one non-operational.
00:52:54I'm sorry, darling.
00:52:55I wish I had better news.
00:52:56What did you need this for?
00:52:58Uh, it's not really important.
00:53:00Listen, thanks anyway, okay?
00:53:02I'll talk to you later.
00:53:03Okay.
00:53:03Bye.
00:53:20Bye.
00:53:23Bye.
00:53:49Marie, what are you doing here?
00:53:51Somebody broke into my house.
00:53:52What?
00:53:53When?
00:53:54Today.
00:53:55You didn't see anything?
00:53:57No.
00:53:59Did they take anything?
00:54:00No.
00:54:02No, but they pretty much ransacked the house and killed my computer.
00:54:08Why?
00:54:10I'm thinking that somebody's trying to frighten me.
00:54:14Are you sure you didn't hear anything?
00:54:17Nothing.
00:54:18But, uh...
00:54:20Why?
00:54:23You're not exactly the town's favorite resident right now.
00:54:27So that makes it okay?
00:54:29No.
00:54:30Of course not.
00:54:33But I don't want to see something happen to you.
00:54:36The LREs, they're a very powerful family.
00:54:42I didn't kill anybody.
00:55:00I really appreciate you letting me use your computer.
00:55:03Look, look.
00:55:04I am sorry that we ever doubted you.
00:55:06I feel like I've been sucked into one of my own novels.
00:55:10Have you had a chance to call the police?
00:55:12Yeah.
00:55:13And they're, um, looking into it.
00:55:15Figure I must be onto something if I've made them nervous.
00:55:20Okay, so how can I help you?
00:55:23Well, I actually want to talk to you about Michael's relationship with Nicole Warner.
00:55:26Nicole Warner?
00:55:27Oh.
00:55:28That's old news.
00:55:29How old?
00:55:30Oh.
00:55:31He and the mayor, they got into it, what, about six, eight months ago outside of La Repa?
00:55:35Remember?
00:55:36I don't remember.
00:55:36Wait a second.
00:55:37Wait, um, the mayor?
00:55:38Yeah.
00:55:39He and the LREs, they've always had a difficult relationship.
00:55:42This did not make anything easier.
00:55:43Did he hit him?
00:55:45Yeah.
00:55:46They'd both been drinking.
00:55:47There was words exchanged.
00:55:48I mean, nobody knows who hit who first, but, um, the chief had to pull them apart.
00:55:53And nobody brought this up when Michael turned up dead?
00:55:57Well, their relationship was over.
00:56:00I mean, wouldn't you know that the mayor patched things up with his wife before his pre-election campaign, you
00:56:04know?
00:56:05But, but you know what?
00:56:06This whole thing, it really affected Michael's relationship with his father.
00:56:15What if it wasn't over?
00:56:18What do you mean?
00:56:20I took this photo the night Michael went missing.
00:56:26Well, it certainly looks like Nicole.
00:56:29Oh, yeah, it does.
00:56:32Wait a second.
00:56:34Hang on, that's not there anymore.
00:56:36What's not there?
00:56:37This.
00:56:38This photo here, behind them.
00:56:41It wasn't there when I went to his house.
00:56:48What do you think the mayor would do if he found out?
00:56:50Are you kidding?
00:56:51That man's famous for his temper.
00:56:53Doesn't mean he'd kill someone.
00:56:54You certainly think about it.
00:56:55Well, it would certainly impact his chances for re-election.
00:56:58No, no, personally, I would be afraid of what Edward would do to his son.
00:57:02I mean, this whole thing cost him a lot of valuable real estate contracts.
00:57:05Hold on, when I was at the police station, I overheard the deputy telling the police that the two were
00:57:09not on speaking terms.
00:57:10You see?
00:57:11Please.
00:57:11I mean, the man might sell out his grandmother, but he's not gonna kill his own son.
00:57:15You don't know what those people would do.
00:57:17You don't.
00:57:18You don't.
00:57:19I do.
00:57:20You don't.
00:57:21It's time to.
00:57:25I think you're gonna get older.
00:57:27I think it's good.
00:57:30You don't, you don't.
00:57:32It's beautiful.
00:57:34You, Ben.
00:57:35Absolutely.
00:57:40Did you, Ben?
00:57:42You know, Ben.

00:58:57it's worth millions in the first six months alone and you almost lost it all because of your son's
00:59:02behavior my son did not force that woman to do anything against her will instead of directing his
00:59:10anger at me Alan should be looking to his own bed to hell he loses the damn election and a
00:59:16part of you

01:00:53I'll see you later.
01:00:54Okay.
01:01:11Enjoying the party?
01:01:13It's wild.
01:01:14Don't worry.
01:01:15This won't take long.
01:01:16I just want to ask you a couple of questions about Michael Ellery.
01:01:19Well, what happened to him was a tragedy, and I hope that whoever did it is adequately punished.
01:01:24You know him.
01:01:25My husband is the mayor.
01:01:27I know a lot of people.
01:01:29I saw you at his house tonight, but he was murdered.
01:01:33If you'll excuse me, I think this conversation's over.
01:01:35I have a photograph of the two of you in his kitchen.
01:01:47What do you think your husband would do if you found out?
01:01:50What are you doing?
01:01:52Just trying to find the truth.
01:01:54What do you want me to say?
01:01:55Yes, Michael and I had a relationship.
01:01:59Michael had many relationships.
01:02:00Were they serious?
01:02:02What was the plan?
01:02:04To elope?
01:02:06To run away where your husband couldn't find you?
01:02:08What are you talking about?
01:02:09I don't believe we've had the pleasure.
01:02:12Miss Wilde.
01:02:13Good evening, Chief.
01:02:15Why are you not surprised to see you here?
01:02:18Miss Wilde, I'd like to propose that we spare us both the embarrassment of having you escorted out of here.
01:02:25Of course you're in.
01:02:29Always a pleasure, Chief.
01:02:35Sorry about that, ma'am.
01:02:36I'll make sure Miss Wilde keeps her distance.
01:02:38No, I don't think that'll be necessary.
01:02:40Right, honey?
01:02:43Honey?
01:02:47Oh, no, no, it's fine.
01:02:52Matt?
01:02:52Mrs. Warner?
01:02:55So, what was that all about?
01:02:58Look, she was just asking me questions about the town.
01:03:08Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:03:30Let me see you.
01:03:34Sorry about that.
01:03:37Oh, no, no, no, no.
01:08:47Jason Kelly.
01:08:49That's a name I'd rather not hear again.
01:08:54I tried to keep Michael away from him.
01:08:58What is that?
01:09:00He's a bad influence.
01:09:03Is that it?
01:09:05My son had a gambling problem.
01:09:07Jason merely exacerbated it.
01:09:09Is that why you cut him off?
01:09:12Ms. Wilde, uh...
01:09:15I really appreciate your efforts in trying to solve this case.
01:09:18But I hope you can understand that I have not the least been interested in discussing my late son's indiscretions.
01:09:25Now, if you will excuse me, I have funeral arrangements to make.
01:09:31Of course.
01:09:48I have funeral arrangements to make.
01:09:52He never did.
01:09:53We hope...
01:10:03We hope you'll do this time.
01:10:03We'll be next time.
01:10:03Listen to the work for Alan.
01:10:03Use the simple horse.
01:10:04The Frenchmanā¦
01:10:07But
01:10:07I'll be right back. Seven
01:10:0800h.
01:11:25So you don't think she did it?
01:11:27I'm not saying that.
01:11:28I'm just wondering, what's the motive?
01:11:32Research.
01:11:33See if she'd get away with it.
01:11:35Why here?
01:11:36Why now?
01:11:38Maybe she got too involved across the line.
01:11:42I mean, you read what she wrote in her blog.
01:11:44Could have been a crime of passion.
01:11:45Yeah, but why would she go from a woman with a simple crush to a full-fledged murderess?
01:11:50There was no physical relationship between the two, and there's not a shred of evidence that she was there the
01:11:54night he disappeared.
01:11:56You remember that Giordano case?
01:11:58Upstate a couple of years ago?
01:12:00Doesn't take much to push someone over the edge.
01:12:02No, it's not the same.
01:12:04She doesn't fit the profile.
01:12:05Why, because she's rich?
01:12:08No, because she's smart.
01:12:11She's just seen that cottage.
01:12:12Someone did a real number on it.
01:12:14Like you say, she's smart.
01:12:15She could have done that herself just to throw us off.
01:12:20Possible, I suppose.
01:12:22I still think we're missing something.
01:12:24You want me to go through the files again?
01:12:26Maybe there is someone else.
01:12:28Someone who wants us to think it's wild.
01:12:31You want me to take a close look at that Jason kid?
01:12:35You know what?
01:12:37I'm going to go back down there.
01:12:38Walk down the water.
01:12:39See if I can find anything.
01:12:41You want me to go with you?
01:12:42No, no, you grab your coffee.
01:12:43Give me a chance to think when it's over.
01:12:45Thanks, though.
01:12:46No problem, Chief.
01:12:49Sheriff, hi.
01:12:51Miss Wilde, what are you doing here?
01:12:53I came to show you something.
01:12:55You see that?
01:12:57That's my car.
01:12:59Wow.
01:13:00Yeah.
01:13:01Yeah, wow.
01:13:01Well, if you'd like to file a report.
01:13:04A report?
01:13:05You mean the same kind of report that I filed after the break-in?
01:13:08Is that kind of a report?
01:13:09Miss Wilde, just...
01:13:10Look, don't you see?
01:13:11The killer is still out there.
01:13:13And they're afraid that I'm on to them.
01:13:15Then file a report.
01:13:16I...
01:13:18Did you know that Michael owed Jason Kelly money?
01:13:21He owed a lot of people money.
01:13:22Yeah, but this was a lot of money, okay?
01:13:24Look, look.
01:13:24I mean, this was tens of thousands.
01:13:26Check it out.
01:13:31This couldn't mean anything.
01:13:33Besides, look.
01:13:33My deputy has already gone down to the theater and talked to people, okay?
01:13:36You can check his report if you want.
01:13:37Five people confirmed that he was there, never left.
01:13:40Not even to go to the bathroom, okay?
01:13:42Yeah, but I...
01:13:43I just...
01:13:44Miss Wilde, if you'd like to file a report, please talk to my desk sergeant.
01:13:49Otherwise, allow me to finish my investigation.
01:14:03I am so glad you came to see me today because I've got a great selection at the moment.
01:14:09So with the occasion, you got into an accident?
01:14:12Vandalism.
01:14:13Not to worry, because we've got some pretty fancy rides.
01:14:15Well, I don't want anything too fancy.
01:14:16Just something that's cheap that gets good gas mileage.
01:14:19Sure, because when I look at you, I see a woman with taste.
01:14:25I like this one.
01:14:27Just got it back yesterday.
01:14:30Really?
01:14:31Yeah, uh, I haven't had a chance to clean her out yet, but...
01:14:34Well, what do you say?
01:14:36We shave off a couple of bucks off the top, and, uh, I overlook the mess.
01:14:40Deal.
01:14:41Deal.
01:14:43Shall we?
01:15:01That's one flashy car.
01:15:04Yeah, well, you know, us girls just want to have fun.
01:15:23Vanilla hazelnut latte.
01:15:25Double sugar, double soy milk.
01:15:35Christina Lake Police Department.
01:15:37Yeah, hi, it's Sarah Wilde calling.
01:15:39Yes, Ms. Wilde, how can I help you?
01:15:40I need to speak with the chief.
01:15:41Is he around?
01:15:42It's an emergency.
01:15:43Oh, the chief's not here.
01:15:44Would you like to talk to the deputy?
01:15:46No, no, no, no.
01:15:47I mean, look, it's just, it's important that I speak with the chief and the chief only, okay?
01:15:51Um, just tell him that I know who killed Michael Ellery.
01:15:56What?
01:15:57Okay, you know what, better yet, just have him come to my house, okay?
01:16:00He knows where I live.
01:16:01All right?
01:16:02Sure.
01:16:02Great, thanks.
01:16:06Okay.
01:16:07I don't know.
01:16:41Oh, thank God you're here.
01:16:42Oh, sorry.
01:16:52I told you to stop.
01:16:54I had to play detective, didn't you?
01:16:58Just getting started.
01:17:08Any messages?
01:17:09Sarah Wild.
01:17:10She says she knows who killed Michael Ellery.
01:17:12Don't talk to anybody about you.
01:17:13Said to have you call her back as soon as possible.
01:17:25Hi.
01:17:25You've reached Sarah.
01:17:29I'm going back out there.
01:17:30If you hear from her, you'll let me know immediately.
01:17:57Sarah?
01:18:08Sarah?
01:18:09Sarah.
01:18:10It's Chief Sass.
01:18:11You hear?
01:18:14You hear?
01:18:29It's the Chief.
01:18:30I need you to run a GPS on Deputy Walsh's car.
01:18:33I want to know exactly where he is.
01:18:47Easy.
01:18:47Don't hurt yourself.
01:18:51Is your brother right now?
01:18:52I didn't have to do this by yourself.
01:18:55Alan worked his ass off for this town.
01:18:57He didn't deserve to lose the most important thing in his life for that punk.
01:19:01Well, I saw her with that punk.
01:19:02It didn't seem like she was suffering.
01:19:04Shut up.
01:19:05The marriage was fine until he showed up.
01:19:09So you killed him?
01:19:10No.
01:19:10No.
01:19:10I gave him a chance to walk away.
01:19:11He wouldn't listen.
01:19:13What was I supposed to do?
01:19:15Alan always protected me.
01:19:17He looked after me.
01:19:20I would.
01:20:00What do you think is going to happen when your number one suspect turns up dead?
01:20:03Come on, move.
01:20:03Huh?
01:20:04You don't think that's going to seem a little suspicious?
01:20:08After all the guilt over what you've done, combined with your incredible sense of loss,
01:20:13it's only a matter of time before you're driven to take your own life.
01:20:18Suicide.
01:20:18I'm not quite the way you are, but I'll try to do you justice when I write the note.
01:20:22Go to hell.
01:20:23After you.
01:20:25Move.
01:20:27Hey.
01:20:31Whoa!
01:20:54This is the chief.
01:20:56We're in a situation down at the dam.
01:20:58While she's taking a hostage, don't ask any questions.
01:21:00Just get some men down here immediately.
01:21:06You're hurting me.
01:21:13Get down!
01:21:14Get off!
01:21:24What's wrong?
01:21:25Shut up.
01:21:26What's the matter?
01:21:27No plan B.
01:21:28Just shut up!
01:21:34Look out!
01:21:39Dave, come on.
01:21:41I just want to talk.
01:21:43Get up!
01:21:45Go!
01:21:56Move!
01:21:57Go!
01:21:58Move!
01:22:10Down!
01:22:13Down!
01:22:21Ah!
01:22:25Go!
01:22:28Ah!
01:22:30Ah!
01:22:37Enough!
01:22:43Come on.
01:22:45Yeah.
01:22:48Got him?
01:22:56You all right?
01:22:58Yeah.
01:23:03Thanks.
01:23:04Come on.
01:23:24Sarah, I want to apologize.
01:23:29I should have listened to you.
01:23:33You did what you had to do.
01:23:38And we solved our case.
01:23:41Yeah, we did.
01:23:46So what now?
01:23:47Can I finish the book?
01:23:51I think I finally found a way to end it.
01:23:56Send me a copy?
01:23:59Sure.
01:24:02Thanks, Sarah.
01:24:04Good night.
01:24:05Good night.
01:24:26Hey, Lewis.
01:24:28I knew you'd be back.
01:24:33Thanks.
01:24:35Darling, great news.
01:24:36The publisher's already going back to press.
01:24:38They say this is going to be your biggest book yet.
01:24:41It's fantastic.
01:24:42So when are you coming back to the city?
01:24:43I've got some good deals in the pipeline for you we need to talk about.
01:24:48Unless you...
01:24:48Sarah.
01:24:49Come on.
01:24:50I know this town is cute and quaint and all that, but it's time to get back to work.
01:24:55I can work here.
01:24:57Sorry that I already started my next book.
01:25:00Really?
01:25:01Then what's it about?
01:25:03Well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
01:25:08Hello, Chief.
01:25:10Excuse me one minute.
01:25:14Ms. Wilde?
01:25:18If you would.
01:25:21And who shall I make it out to?
01:25:24Darren.
01:25:26Darren.
01:25:31We'd be in town for a while.
01:25:33I might be.
01:25:35Good.
01:25:35There's a case I'd like to talk to you about.
01:25:38A case, huh?
01:25:40That is, if you're interested.
01:25:43Sure.
01:25:45Good.
01:25:46Why don't we discuss it over dinner tonight?
01:25:48Why don't we?
01:25:50Pick you up at seven?
01:25:52Sounds good.
01:25:59Whatever happened to...
01:26:01I just need a little peace and quiet so I can concentrate on my writing.
01:26:06Well, you know I like unpredictable endings.
01:26:10I'll call you tomorrow.
01:26:12You got it.
01:26:15Murray.
01:26:17To my dear neighbor and friend.
01:26:21No, okay.
01:26:23Yes, thanks for the muffins.
01:26:43And a fuck, I'll call you your next too.
01:26:45mop up and wait.
01:26:56So let's have an update today.
01:26:57You would like to upload a video to find a podcast.
01:26:57And I'll see you out there.
01:26:59I'll see you down there.
