00:14In Toronto's War on Crime, the worst offenders are pursued by the detectives of the Specialized Criminal Investigations Unit.
00:22These are their stories.
00:25All right.
00:26I'm just here and here.
00:30And that should do it.
00:35This isn't a big mistake, right?
00:37I'm gonna let you...
00:41...little secret, Melissa.
00:42There are no mistakes in Toronto real estate.
00:46He's not wrong.
00:47Nothing can be bought that can't be sold again.
00:50At a markup.
00:51Right.
00:52And if I just want a good home.
00:54Listen, it's nerve wracking.
00:56I get it.
00:56All this gobbledygook.
00:59But it's a great little home.
01:02You're gonna be very happy there.
01:05Mr. Henning, tell me how often do we get homebuyers having last-minute jitters?
01:10First time?
01:12Mm-hmm.
01:13Well, then I would be worried if you weren't nervous.
01:22And that covers it.
01:24How do you feel, Paul?
01:25I mean, yeah.
01:27Good.
01:27A lot of good memories here.
01:29But a new chapter awaits.
01:31Japan.
01:31That's exciting.
01:33When you think about going back?
01:34As soon as this is finalized.
01:36It won't be much longer now, right?
01:37No inspections.
01:40The fun should be released by tomorrow.
01:41Oh, excuse me.
01:48Samantha Morgan?
01:52Oh, my God.
02:33yeah whoa whoa whoa wait wait how's that even possible you checked yourself
02:48yeah leave it with me
03:33oh hey i'm sorry to bother you you wouldn't happen to have a flashlight on your cell phone would

03:58i bet you
04:21what the hell is oh my god guys guys
04:30so
04:40so
04:46so
05:12I'll see you next time.
05:19So who do we have here? White male, 40s, doesn't look like he was using the skate park.
05:29Wounds like a double-edged blade. Two, three, four quick jabs. The one on the groin would have finished him
05:36off.
05:36And blood trail suggests he was stabbed on the path, dragged here as he was dying.
05:46I don't see any defensive wounds. It wasn't much of a fight.
05:49Happened fast, maybe he was facing his attacker but didn't expect violence.
05:56You think he knew him?
05:57Well, a stranger approaches on a dark path, he puts your guard up.
06:01Friend approaches, you don't end up dead.
06:03Fair call. No visible tattoos, no discoloration of the skin to indicate mis-
06:10and watch your jewelry. Nondescript clothes, neutral color, shoes off the rack.
06:18Blake's sleep.
06:20Fingerprints aren't in the system and there's no match to missing persons.
06:24Doesn't come home last night, doesn't show up for work this morning.
06:27Nobody's missing this guy.
06:28Apparently not.
06:29Empty pockets, no car keys, no phone, no wallet, nothing.
06:33Simple mugging, clean them out.
06:35Oh, with the mugging you take the wallet and run, you don't drag the guy into the woods.
06:38Well, I'd say you don't have much to go on but this.
06:42This is nothing to go on.
06:44Report on your John Doe.
06:46Nothing much to write home about.
06:51It's on brand.
06:51But there is this.
06:57Black molars.
06:58That's silver diamine fluoride.
07:01Correct.
07:02Topical treatment for tooth decay and alternative to drilling.
07:05Stains the teeth.
07:06So, our John Doe didn't want to get cavities, so that's not exactly a lead.
07:11I hate to break it to you, but I see some canvassing in your future.
07:14Get a digital rendering made and go talk to the public.
07:18The public.
07:26Take a close look.
07:27Yeah.
07:28Yeah, he came in last night.
07:31Alright, so you've seen him before.
07:34No, but he tipped big, stuck around to eat, and said he just cashed in his chips.
07:40There.
07:41May I?
07:45Okay, 9.42pm.
07:52No calls, no texting, just dining alone.
07:55I don't know, fried chicken and Zadoku?
07:57Looks pretty good to me.
08:00Hey, look at that.
08:02The pen.
08:04Right there.
08:07He just throws it in the trash with everything else, but...
08:14He came in with it, see?
08:16Maybe there's a logo on it.
08:18House of reach, but it's something.
08:20This path leads us to...
08:22...a dumpster full of old chicken, isn't it?
08:24You're in luck.
08:25It was late.
08:26I already emptied the trash, so anything you tossed is still in the can.
08:30Could we borrow a pizza box?
08:35Talkin' to the public garbage search?
08:38This guy's startin' to bother me.
08:40Oh, come on, you love it.
08:46Uh...
08:47Oh, God.
08:51Hey.
08:53There we go.
08:56Samantha Morgan Wingrove Realty.
08:59Well, it's not nothing.
09:06I mean, it's Paul.
09:08Why? What's... what's happened?
09:10And how do you know it?
09:10I sold this house for him.
09:12I'm actually here, grabbing my staging materials.
09:14He cashed in his chips.
09:16Excuse me?
09:18Is he okay?
09:19I'm afraid he was found dead this morning.
09:22What?
09:23What on earth happened?
09:24Uh, we don't actually have a lot of details right now, but maybe you can help.
09:27If this image is a rendering, do you happen to have anything that could help us confirm that we're talking
09:33about the same person?
09:34I mean, that's him.
09:35I'm 100% sure that's him.
09:37Hold on.
09:47Yeah, that's our guy.
09:49Do you mind if I hang onto this?
09:50No, of course.
09:51Thanks.
09:57I'm sorry, I'm just a little confused here.
09:59He was on his way back to Japan.
10:01Uh, Japan?
10:02Yeah, that's where he worked.
10:04That's why he wanted to get rid of his place.
10:05He was spending most of his...
10:07...time there.
10:08Yeah, well that explains why no one misses him.
10:11Are there any photos of his friends or...
10:13...family?
10:14Any...any personal items?
10:16Usually we haul that stuff out by the truckload.
10:21But we actually had to bring some tchotchkes in.
10:24Yeah, there's not much character.
10:27Did you...
10:28Did you happen to meet anyone else in his life?
10:30No.
10:30We only met a couple weeks ago.
10:32Well, that deal must have gone through pretty quick.
10:34We priced it to move.
10:35He was eager to get back overseas.
10:37Mm-hmm.
10:43Listen, uh...
10:44Everyone's signed in line here, so...
10:46...just curious.
10:47Will this affect the sale?
10:50I...I don't mean to be crass.
10:52It's, uh...not matter.
10:55Yeah, it's Detective Bateman.
10:57I was hoping you could run a name for me.
10:59Yeah, Paul...
11:00...Paul Phillips, date of birth, March 23rd, 1981.
11:04Address, 227 Alton Drive.
11:06Search CPIC.
11:07Check your currencies.
11:08See what you can find on, uh...next-day emergency contacts.
11:12Thanks.
11:12None of the neighbors have seen this guy for months.
11:16Anything out of the ordinary lately?
11:18Oh, just the real estate people coming and going.
11:20One of the neighbors...
11:22...he was so irritated.
11:24The place sold for 1.5.
11:26Undermarket.
11:28He's a block.
11:29Poor thing.
11:30Yeah.
11:30Yeah.
11:35Okay, thank you so much.
11:38Paul Phillips has his sister in the scar room.
11:43The
11:43A modern day warrior means true.
11:51Today's Tom Sawyer mean, ME, three.
12:06The
12:06The
12:06Mind is not for end
12:08The wooden stone down is there again
12:11It's reserved a quiet defense
12:15Writing out the day's events
12:17The river
12:48I just can't make sense of it
12:51We're so sorry for your loss
12:53Who would do that to Paul?
12:54Oh, that's something we're hoping you might be able to help us figure out
13:00Lydia, because of the circumstances of your brother's death
13:04We do need to confirm his identity
13:06Is that something you're comfortable doing?
13:09Oh
13:09Oh, God
13:17Yeah, okay
13:22Jealous
13:26Opinion, what are the bruises around the stab wounds?
13:30Well, they're from the attack
13:31Looks like the murder weapon had a hilt
13:36Why, is something bothering you, detective?
13:38Hold me everything
13:49So, sit up in there
13:50You can take your time
13:51And we'll go in when you're ready
13:54Miss Phillips
13:56Were you aware your brother was back in town?
13:58No
13:58No, it was weird
14:00It was weird to let me know when he was coming
14:01At any rate
14:03Detective Graf
14:04And we will give you a moment to yourself
14:07Because we understand this is difficult
14:08Did you know he'd sold his house?
14:10He did?
14:12Yeah, he was in a rush to get rid of it
14:14It took far less than he could have
14:16How often were you two in
14:20Touch?
14:20Well, not daily
14:22But, you know, we shared the big stuff
14:24Like selling his home
14:26I would have thought so
14:27Yeah
14:28I think I'm ready to see him now
14:30He's right this way
14:32It was something else we shared
14:34We were both blind as bats
14:35Only
14:37Paul was brave enough to have the surgery
14:40He had laser surgery?
14:42Yeah, the same as stigmatism
14:43But Paul had his corrected
14:45Do you have a number for Paul in Japan?
14:49Yes
14:50But
14:50Aren't we going in now?
14:52Can you dial it?
14:54Please
14:56Okay
14:57I'm so sorry
14:58I'll be right back
15:03Hey
15:04What are you thinking?
15:05Stained molars
15:06This
15:07Silver diamide fluoride
15:09Dentists use it
15:10When a patient has an aversion to anesthetic
15:16If he can't have anesthetic
15:18He didn't get eye surgery
15:19Well, maybe he's not a blank slate after all
15:22Paul?
15:23Lidia?
15:24You're alive!
15:26Lidia, is everything okay?
15:28So who's
15:29In the morgue?
15:32An imposter
15:40Sant
15:42If that wasn't Paul Phillips
15:44Who was he?
15:45Let's start with a different question
15:47How does one sell a house they don't own?
15:50He had ID
15:51I
15:53Showed him
15:54Two pieces
15:55That's a requirement
15:56Which you didn't authenticate
15:57I check his photo
16:00I look at his face
16:01I mean
16:02I'm not Interpol
16:03You met him
16:04Two weeks ago
16:06He came to you
16:06Is that right?
16:07He saw my bus that bad
16:08Told me he was in a hurry
16:10And that I should take any reasonable offer
16:12Nothing about that seems suspicious
16:14That's a motivated seller
16:17That's music to my ears
16:19Keep everything moving so fast
16:20That nobody notices anything's off
16:22Like clearing a house
16:23Of all personal items
16:25Not a single keepsake
16:26That might identify
16:27The real Paul Phillips
16:28His name was on the title
16:30Funny you should say
16:31Say he spelt his name wrong
16:33On the purchase agreement
16:35Use the common spell
16:38Philips
16:39Two L's
16:40Rather than
16:40The one L
16:42That the real Paul Phillips used
16:45Repeats the error a few times
16:47Obviously
16:48I didn't see that
16:50Samantha have you heard of anything like this
16:52Happened before?
16:53I mean
16:53Heard of it but
16:54No not to anyone I know
16:56Who do you like in financial crimes?
16:59Like
17:00Stronghold
17:02Chase is all right
17:04Thank you
17:08The title
17:09Thank you
17:12Booming business
17:13That's what you get
17:14When a starter home
17:15Cost a million bucks
17:17Save
17:18Guards have
17:20Guards have
17:21The money
17:21And the bad guys
17:22Have taken note
17:23Have a seat
17:27In this case
17:28The fraudster
17:29Opposes the homeowner
17:31Fake
17:31Fake
17:32Owner overseas
17:34Right
17:35Obviously
17:36They target vacant properties
17:39Unmowed lawns
17:40Jung mail piling up
17:41They do a title search
17:42Find out the owner's name
17:43A little
17:44A little bit of rudimentary
17:46Identity theft
17:46And they are well on their way
17:48Here
17:5030 homes
17:52In the GTA
17:53In the last three years
17:54Sold or mortgaged
17:55Without the owner's consent
17:56Oh Jesus
17:57Was this guy
17:58Involved with any of them?
18:03I don't think so
18:05But that face rings
18:06The bell
18:12Move
18:15There was a similar scheme
18:16In Vancouver
18:18There was a
18:20There was a
18:21Who rented an apartment
18:22To 19 people at once
18:23Collected rent from all of them
18:25And then left
18:25Before anyone
18:26And got wise
18:28Is that him?
18:30Yeah, it's the guy
18:32Vancouver Regional Police
18:33Never caught him
18:34But they appealed to the public
18:35And they did get a name
18:37Timothy Fox
18:40Was Paul
18:40This was Paul Phillips, huh?
18:43Who are you working with
18:44In financial?
18:46Oh, well, Graf
18:47Is a
18:49Piece of reasoner
18:50Yeah, one more day
18:51And Fox
18:52Would have got away with it
18:53But luckily the house
18:53Is still in escrow
18:55So the sale
18:56Never went through
18:56Well, that's your angle
18:58Somebody solved that problem
18:59With a knife
19:00Yeah, most of the
19:00Funds at risk
19:01Were the banks
19:02All insured
19:03However, the buyers deposit
19:04Gotta be over
19:06A hundred
19:09Oh, that's killing
19:10Money
19:11Go meet the buyer
19:17Yeah, I've been looking
19:19For months
19:20God, I'll bid so many times
19:22Finally
19:23An offer
19:24Accepted
19:25And then
19:25This happens
19:26It's bad luck
19:28Yeah, is it true
19:30That this
19:31Imposter guy
19:32Was murdered?
19:33That's what my real estate agent
19:34Told me
19:34Melissa
19:35How much money
19:36Did you put down on the house?
19:38A hundred and fifty thousand
19:40That's a big
19:41Number
19:42Yeah, with a big
19:43Loan on top of that
19:44I bet
19:46Can I ask where you work?
19:48Harborview Lounge
19:49On Wellington
19:50I'm a bartender
19:52Oh yeah?
19:53What's your favorite cocktail?
19:55Not to mix
19:55But to drink
19:58I'm fond of a gin ricky
19:59Well, I'm not drinking
20:01Much these days
20:01Yeah, because you're pregnant
20:04Excuse me?
20:05That's why you want
20:06More living space
20:07Baby on the way
20:08And how rude
20:09To be to make that leap
20:11Oh, the leap
20:12Happened earlier
20:14From this
20:19Paris
20:22Clay powder
20:25Mounting plaque
20:26I don't see any other
20:27Crafting supplies about
20:28So, uh
20:30I'm assuming
20:31It's a molding kit
20:32For a baby foot
20:33That was a leap
20:36The no drinking part
20:38Just, uh
20:40Confirmed it
20:41Or
20:42Did I get it wrong?
20:45I'm four months pregnant
20:47Did your parents
20:48Co-sign for the house?
20:50No
20:52It's none of your business
20:53What about father-to-be?
20:55Not in the picture
20:55And even less
20:56Of your business
20:58Where were you?
20:59Two nights ago?
20:59Is he serious?
21:00Well, the man who
21:01Tried to steal a hundred and fifty
21:05Fifty dollars from you
21:06Was killed
21:06So
21:06He's quite serious
21:10I was
21:10At work
21:12Mondays are slow
21:13So maybe only
21:14Three hundred people saw me
21:15Would you like their names?
21:17Let's start with
21:17Your manager's phone number
21:26You went, uh
21:27Pretty hard at her
21:29I mean, I'm not getting
21:30Stabbing
21:32No, but she's definitely
21:33Hiding something
21:34She didn't even ask
21:35If she was getting
21:36Her deposit back
21:39The money's dodgy
21:40Let's follow it
21:45Yes
21:46I was the advisor
21:47Of Ms. Harbach's file
21:48Meaning you
21:49Approved the loan
21:50I processed it
21:51Is there a difference?
21:52Detectives, I'm sure you
21:53Understand you've got us
21:55In a spot here
21:55We can't discuss
21:57The personal finances
21:58Of a client
21:59Without a court order
22:00The finances
22:01Of a single bartender
22:03Who buys a house
22:03For 1.5 million dollars
22:05I know it can seem
22:05Opaque from the outside
22:06But the industry
22:07Uses something called
22:08A GDS ratio
22:09Gross
22:10Debt services
22:11The percentage of income
22:13That goes toward housing
22:14You know your stuff
22:15I do
22:17Yeah, I learned the hard way
22:18When I tried to
22:19Buy in Ronci
22:20On a cop salary
22:21But, uh
22:22By
22:24My math
22:24To get approved
22:26For that loan
22:26Melissa Auerbach
22:27Would have to be making
22:28Over
22:30$200,000 a year
22:31She's a charming lady
22:33But, uh
22:33That's a lot of tips
22:35She had all the records
22:36To back it up
22:36Bank statements
22:37Tax returns
22:39Yep
22:39And you authenticated these
22:41We asked for official documents
22:43And she supplied them
22:44Detective
22:45As the bank's manager
22:47I have to insist
22:47Get a court order
22:49And you can look at the records
22:49Yourself
22:51If you insist
23:02Someone definitely
23:03Cooked the books
23:04Made the
23:04Finance
23:08No one blinked
23:11What is it?
23:13Maybe that
23:13Was Timothy Fox's mistake
23:15His con
23:16Ran into an even
23:17Bigger con
23:21An imposter
23:22Meets a forger
23:23In a dark alley
23:24And blood spills
23:25Maybe it's time
23:26We run a con
23:26Of our own
23:29You still interested
23:30In buying a house?
23:33Have you been
23:33Looking long?
23:35I just started
23:36Do I look like a deer
23:38In the headlights?
23:39You'll get the hang of it
23:41You just need some good help
23:43About that
23:44I
23:45Actually don't have an agent yet
23:47And my friend Melissa
23:48Recommended you
23:49Well then
23:51I'm always charming
23:53But now I'll really
23:54Pour it on
23:56Is this the kind of place
23:57You're looking for?
23:58Oh
23:58I mean it's
24:00Beautiful
24:02But
24:03I don't know
24:05See here's the thing
24:07Our finances
24:08Are a bit
24:09Tricky
24:10I'm a gallery owner
24:11My husband has
24:13He's a carpenter
24:14We're doing fine
24:16But a lot of our income
24:17Is in cash
24:18Meaning it doesn't
24:20Necessarily all
24:21Make its way to the book
24:22So that's between you and God
24:25Okay
24:27It's just on paper
24:28We don't qualify
24:28For much of a mortgage
24:32None of my business
24:33But what you're describing
24:34I see it all the time
24:36In fact I
24:37I know someone who
24:39Helps clients in your situation
24:41Like a mortgage broker?
24:43More like an advisor
24:44He'll help you
24:45Organize your books
24:46Oh
24:49I mean we don't want to do
24:50Anything unethical
24:51Of course not
24:52You just want a home
24:55You'll make your payments right?
24:56Of course
24:57Then no one gets hurt
25:02Jesse
25:03Grayson
25:06Let him do his thing
25:07Let him do his thing
25:07You'll have the home of your dreams
25:09Before you know him
25:13So what would you do?
25:15My idea for a restaurant
25:16Is vegan on one side
25:19Snout to tell meat on the other
25:20Perfect
25:21Offend everyone
25:23Appeal to everyone
25:23That's the move dad
25:25Respect their boundaries
25:26But all together
25:27And the servers would use
25:28Like a demilitarized zone
25:29Down the
25:30Oh josh
25:33Who is it?
25:35It's just a
25:36A colleague
25:38Why don't you head in
25:39I'll be right there
25:39Okay
25:46What are you doing here
25:47Grayson
25:47What did you say to the cops?
25:49You're following me?
25:50I had to make sure
25:51You weren't getting cold feet
25:52Cold feet?
25:54I did not tell you
25:55To kill that guy
25:56I told you to take care
25:57Luck
25:58I just came here
25:59So you understand
26:00The reality behind all this
26:03It's you and me now
26:06Us
26:06Adrian
26:07You understand?
26:10I didn't say anything
26:11And I won't
26:14You stay away from my family
26:17Later buddy
26:23This Grayson guy's got this
26:27Pretty
26:29Ration doctoring people's finances
26:31Until Timothy Fox comes along
26:34With his own scheme
26:35And threatens to blow the whole thing up
26:37Is that your theory?
26:38Yeah, if Fox had managed to sell
26:41It would have sparked a huge investigation
26:43Once the real
26:43Owner got home from Japan
26:45And that would have exposed
26:46The whole operation
26:47Yeah
26:47We're thinking Grayson killed Fox
26:51Before
26:52Nullified the sale
26:53Thinking that's the end of that
26:54Problem solved
26:54That's him
26:57We got him
26:57Location data
26:58From Grayson's phone
27:02He was at Weston skate park
27:03At the time of the killing
27:16Jesse Grayson
27:18Armed officers
27:19We're coming in
27:36Bring him in
27:37Bring him in
27:37Bring him in
27:38Bring him in
27:38Bring him in
27:40Bring him in
27:41Bring him in
27:41Bring him in
27:43Bring him in
27:43Bring him in
27:45Bring him in
27:46Bring him in
27:46Bring him in
27:47Bring him in
27:48Bring him in
27:49Bring him in
27:49Bring him in
27:50Bring him in
27:54Alas, poor Grayson.
28:00A single blow to the head.
28:03That's what most likely brought him down.
28:08Followed by...
28:12Repeat blows.
28:15Finish him off.
28:18Left no doubt.
28:21Killer drops the weapon.
28:26Washes up with alcohol and hightails it out of here.
28:30Not before taking the computer.
28:42Forged T4.
28:44Artificially aged.
28:45Coffee ring and all.
28:48This must be where Grayson did his work.
28:51It's a good bet that all the clients were...
28:54Drive.
28:55One of them didn't want it found.
28:56This crime scene is a mess.
28:58The baton was a weapon of opportunity.
29:02He came from here.
29:03Grayson was prepared.
29:05For...
29:06Yeah.
29:06For a lifetime of not dating.
29:09That's interesting.
29:13Double-sided blade.
29:14Quick jabs.
29:15Bruising from the guard.
29:20A weapon that killed Timothy Fox?
29:22Could be.
29:23So if Grayson killed Fox...
29:27Who killed Grayson?
29:30Someone didn't want Grayson's handiwork to come to light.
29:33That's why they took his computer.
29:34Yeah, someone with enough skin in the game to go all the way to murder.
29:38Murder.
29:40Attracts.
29:41Grayson's services would appeal to all kinds of bad actors.
29:44You can get a mortgage.
29:45You can...
29:46You can...
29:47Launder a million.
29:48A million.
29:49It takes to flip a condo.
29:50Do you have his phone?
29:51I got his call history from his provider.
29:56Nothing?
29:57A couple of maybes.
29:58Some number of companies.
30:01Some foreign owners.
30:02A couple of pay...
30:04As you go as...
30:05You go next to real estate.
30:07Or criminal associates.
30:09We thought somebody of your expertise might be able to spot something...
30:16How many listings are we talking about?
30:22All right, let me sit with it.
30:24Well, I think we...
30:25Alone.
30:35Hey Bob, how's the treehouse coming along?
30:37The kids want a second floor, and plumbing.
30:40Let me know if you need help with financing.
30:44Yeah, have a good night Adrian.
31:13Sorry, sorry Tamara, I had to work late.
31:23And I should have called.
31:25Would have been nice.
31:38Hey, I'm sorry.
32:02You think she's okay in there?
32:04Well, I offered her food and she made a sound I didn't recognize.
32:09Bateman, grab!
32:18What do you mean?
32:19It's not one of Grayson's clients.
32:21He starts the loans, yes.
32:24But someone still needs to underwrite them.
32:26So I looked at the land title registry, and that's when I saw it.
32:31The lending institutions, the same ones keep coming up over and over again.
32:35And that's what Grayson would have shown you.
32:40They are all getting their dodgy financing from Hemisphere...
32:47...saves and loans.
32:48So our big fish isn't a gangster.
32:52He's a banker.
32:58Hot diggity damn.
33:03It's a beautiful view.
33:05It's a beautiful home.
33:07Yeah, what can I do for you?
33:08Uh, tell me, uh, Mr. Henning, a man in your position, is your compensation tied to the performance of your
33:16branch?
33:21...dentist structure, yes.
33:23So if, uh, branch does well, you do well.
33:26And it's obvious that...
33:30...do one very well.
33:31I have a good team.
33:33Transferred there three years ago, we gelled right away.
33:35Uh, but Mr. Henning, we're here because we found evidence of widespread fraud at your branch.
33:40I have no idea what you're talking about.
33:43No, we also have reason to believe that these crimes are connected to two murders.
33:46Would you care to comment on that?
33:48Ah, f**k.
33:50I wouldn't know how. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm stunned.
33:53Well, that...
33:54That watch, that's a rarity.
33:58Your eyes, those years, and especially none of that vintage.
34:00Would you mind if I took a closer look?
34:02He's crazy about watches.
34:06Oh, sure.
34:07Ooh.
34:08Well, it looks like someone's been playing with dark toxic chemicals.
34:12Caught you red-handed, so to speak.
34:13What?
34:14Isopropyl alcohol.
34:17In pure form, it can cause skin rashes if you were to use it to clean your skin.
34:24What? Blood, maybe?
34:26Detectives, I am a banker.
34:28I use sanitizer after every hand I shake, and I shake a lot of hands.
34:32Mm-hmm.
34:33If you wouldn't mind, I would appreciate if you directed any other questions to my lawyer.
34:37Mm-hmm.
34:38I do.
34:39Uh, but in terms of getting to work on time, I wouldn't worry.
34:42So, we took your advice.
34:45It's a copy of the search warrant that's gone to your branch.
34:49So, we might beat you there, but either way, see you soon.
35:07The regularity's all over the place.
35:10Here's a student claiming $400,000 in overseas.
35:15Well, this client owns three homes on 2.4 million borrowed occupations.
35:23Patient.
35:24Hair dresser.
35:26Ooh.
35:27Coffee ring and all.
35:29Oh, my God.
35:30If you tried this at my bank, they would taser you in the face.
35:33And then they'd file a suspicious transaction report.
35:46Adrian Henning.
35:48Placing you under arrest.
35:50On what charge?
35:52Today, a conspiracy to commit to fraud and money laundering.
35:56But we'll see what tomorrow brings.
36:06Mr. Grayson's network funneled dozens of fraudulent clients towards Mr. Henning's bank.
36:13Where's there a rubber stamp for loans?
36:15Allegedly.
36:17The initial audit suggests it's been happening for over a year.
36:21Now, are you telling me your client-
36:23Theo, I thought we were having lunch.
36:26You want to talk hypotheticals?
36:29I'm all ears.
36:30Otherwise-
36:31All right.
36:31All right.
36:33Okay.
36:38Hypothetically speaking.
36:43I killed Jesse Grayson to hide his own criminal activity at Hemisphere Savings and Loans.
36:47Mr. Henning has denied any part in that fraud.
36:50And if you come at us claiming he planned to murder Jesse-
36:54Traffic cams put him at the condo on the night.
36:58Prints and DNA-
37:03All over the murder weapon.
37:04You see cold-blooded intent.
37:07Perhaps I see something else.
37:12What would that be?
37:14Well, if I were to say-
37:15And let's be clear, I'm not-
37:21The client knew of a dangerous man that was defrauding his bank.
37:25And asked the-
37:29Dan to stop.
37:31Um, uh-
37:32If that's your defense.
37:35That man would have to be pretty dangerous for a murder charge to go away.
37:40I forget who was it that brutally killed Timothy Fox with an illegal-
37:44We-
37:45Oh, right.
37:46Jesse Grayson.
37:48When your delusions subside, call me.
37:50We'll start talking in absolutes.
37:54Thanks for the shawarma.
38:04Self-defense.
38:06He's looking that way.
38:10Where a murder weapon came from Grayson's armory.
38:13Okay, but you know that just because it's not premeditated does-
38:16It's not-
38:17Mean-
38:19Mean-
38:20Yeah, all they have to do is convince the jury that Henning feared for his life.
38:23If Caldwell does that, he'll walk.
38:26No-
38:26No, no, no, no.
38:27Grayson was- was attacked from behind by surprise.
38:30He had a whole arsenal of weapons, but, uh, none in hand.
38:35He wasn't the aggressor.
38:36Yeah, not this time.
38:38Exactly.
38:39That's the issue.
38:40Grayson's a killer.
38:41Henning, at best, is a f-
38:43First, Robin Hood giving houses to the poor.
38:46We need to dismantle the folk hero-
38:48narrative-
38:50narrative-
38:51narrative-
38:51and put the blood back on his hands.
38:53Not this time.
38:54What?
38:55What she said-
38:57Grayson wasn't the aggressor this time.
39:01This whole thing's-
39:02When one fraud collided with another, if Henning, in any way-
39:07in any way-
39:08can-
39:08inspire-
39:09to-
39:11kill-
39:12foster-
39:13Your self-defense goes out the window.
39:17Yeah, you-
39:17You connect-
39:19Connect Henning-
39:21to-
39:21Timothy Fox.
39:23I can put him away.
39:24Hmm.
39:25Back to fraud number one.
39:30Joy of Joyce.
39:36Hey.
39:40How's, uh-
39:41How's Josh?
39:42He's scared.
39:46Adrian, these things that they're saying that you've done, make it-
39:50make sense.
39:52I was protecting us.
39:54Don't you, dear.
39:55Remember the other night we were coming home from dinner and there-
39:58there was that guy up front of our house, you remember that?
40:00He was threatening us tomorrow.
40:02He threatened to hurt you and Josh.
40:04What?
40:05I-
40:06I need-
40:08I need you to tell him what you saw.
40:10Okay?
40:15The bank's lawyers advise us not to talk to you guys.
40:17Oh, don't worry, you can tell the bank's lawyers that we're not-
40:19Talk about mortgage fraud.
40:20We're here to talk about two dead bodies.
40:22What was Adrian Henning's involvement with-
40:24the 227 Alton Drive?
40:27Mr. Henning kept a close tab on that file.
40:30When the purchase agreement came in, something agitated him.
40:34Something like a guy who couldn't spell his own last name?
40:36Is it normal for him to read purchase agreements?
40:38No.
40:38He's a manager.
40:40He doesn't handle customer transactions.
40:42Yet here he is going over this particular file with a magnifying glass.
40:45This one-
40:45This one mattered to him.
40:47Why?
40:49I don't know what to tell you.
40:50You make it all sound so dirty.
40:52It does sound dirty.
40:53We help people buy homes.
40:54People like Melissa Auerbach, a bartender just trying to build a life.
40:58Um, you-
41:05Henning discovered the seller was sketchy.
41:07He looked into him, found out he was an imposter.
41:09Yeah, he alerted Grayson, told him to take care of it.
41:13Conspiracy to commit.
41:14If we can prove it.
41:18Yeah, excuse me, but, um, Henning told us that he was transferred to this branch a couple of years ago.
41:25Do you know where from?
41:26Uh, Wellington Street branch? Downtown?
41:29That's right across from the Harborview Lounge.
41:31We know what works there.
41:35We get all types of money guys at the bar.
41:39But, Adrian seemed different.
41:42He was open and curious.
41:45And married.
41:45And he never tried to hide that.
41:47We talked about it.
41:48The ups and downs.
41:50We talked about everything.
41:52Melissa, Adrian Henning has been accused of some very serious crimes.
41:58I'm still struggling to believe that.
42:00You don't think he's capable of such things?
42:03Maybe I didn't know him as well as I thought I did.
42:09I know how this sounds.
42:12But I'm not some deluded ex.
42:14I'm not pining.
42:18But our thing.
42:20While it lasted.
42:22I don't know.
42:24Adrian inspired me to imagine a life for myself.
42:30Yeah.
42:30A bigger one.
42:32And I didn't need it to be real.
42:34But then...
42:35But then it became real.
42:37Yeah.
42:37You got pregnant.
42:37He got cold feet.
42:39Yeah.
42:40And you weren't about to be cast aside with nothing.
42:44I wasn't looking to punish him.
42:45I just wanted what he promised me.
42:47What he said was in reach.
42:53What was that?
42:55A home.
43:05Counselor.
43:07We've come across some new information and...
43:11Wanted to give Mr. Henning a chance to respond.
43:14Why is Mrs. Henning here?
43:16Mrs. Henning has some new information as well.
43:19We hoped Forrester would be here.
43:21So we put this all to bad.
43:24But...
43:25Tomorrow.
43:28Six nights ago, Adrian, Josh and I were walking home from the restaurant.
43:33And this Jesse Grayson fellow, he threatened us.
43:38He threatened our son, Josh.
43:40And he threatened to kill us all.
43:42So whatever...
43:46Whatever...
43:47Whatever happened, he did out of self-defense.
43:51Thank you, Mrs. Henning.
43:56Would you be prepared to say all that again in a court of law in front of a...
44:03Strangers, a jury of your peers, the press?
44:06Yes.
44:07Because it's the...
44:09Truth.
44:10Truth.
44:13Mrs. Henning, would you mind excusing us? We have some...
44:20...matters to discuss with your husband.
44:25No. No, I'll stay.
44:30We don't have any secrets. Not anymore.
44:37Um...
44:38Okay, uh, no secrets.
44:41Um...
44:42Mr. Henning, who is...
44:45...to you?
44:49Uh...
44:52You spoke with her?
44:53We did.
44:55And...
44:55You should know that if this case goes...
44:57...to trial, she will be...
44:59...called to testify.
45:00My client's relationship with Ms. Auerbach...
45:06...has...
45:06...no bearing.
45:07Sometimes the least of our sins speak the loudest, Mr. Henning.
45:12That's poetry, detective.
45:13When your affair with Ms. Auerbach ended, uh...
45:19...you felt responsible.
45:21You wanted to help her out.
45:24But, uh...
45:25...you could buy a house for some bartender you'd knocked up.
45:30Uh...
45:31Sorry, I guess you let that part out.
45:35When you...
45:36...hel...
45:38...melissa and...
45:39...your baby...
45:40...you had to do it at arm's length.
45:42So you put...
45:44...her...
45:45...her antenna could make that happen.
45:47Grayson doctored the papers and, um...
45:50...she got her mortgage.
45:52You could help her with the money and it all looked clean, but bad luck.
45:58Melissa tried to buy the house on Alton Drive...
46:01...where the seller was...
46:03...an...
46:05...p...
46:06...you caught the con just in time...
46:09...and informed Grayson to, uh...
46:13...take care of it.
46:14I just wanted the guy to back off.
46:17No, Grayson took it too far.
46:19Things were spiraling.
46:21Cops everywhere and your lies...
46:24...woven into this whole mess.
46:25Maybe he didn't go to Grayson's that night to kill him.
46:29I...
46:30...didn't.
46:31Maybe you just wanted him to...
46:32...smarten up, shut down his operation...
46:36...and...
46:36...all...
46:37...grace...
46:39...was lay low, but not this guy.
46:41No, he's a...
46:42...head case, a loose cannon...
46:44...and his...
46:46...long...
46:47...as he...
46:48...everything you held dear was at risk.
46:51Exactly.
46:52Mr. Henning feared for...
46:53...his life...
46:55...himself.
46:56A decent man in a bad spot.
46:58That's right.
46:59Beautiful family.
47:00Good job.
47:02Even the mortgage staff, that's a victimless crime, right?
47:04I mean, we're talking about real estate here.
47:06Everyone's on the take.
47:07You were just...
47:08...keeping up with the flow of traffic.
47:10That's all the jury's gonna hear, right?
47:12Right?
47:12Except, um...
47:14...it doesn't work that way anymore.
47:16Melissa Auerbach changes it.
47:20Make your point, detective.
47:22The real victims are the point.
47:25Right there in your own home.
47:27Your wife tomorrow.
47:29Your son, Josh.
47:30He believes in that.
47:32Well, they're right in the middle of it, Mr. Henning, because...
47:35...you...
47:35...put them there.
47:37Think about every...
47:38...time you came home late and you saw the pain on their faces.
47:42Every lie.
47:43Every bad excuse.
47:44I made a mistake.
47:46A mistake?
47:47No, no, no, Mr. Henning, you're a cheat.
47:50You cheat on your wife.
47:52You cheat your unborn child out of a father by bribing your mistress with a house.
47:58Not a home.
48:00Hush money.
48:02Gracing was a threat to my family.
48:05A threat?
48:05Yes!
48:05Well, why didn't you go to the police?
48:07Huh?
48:08Sure, you've broken the law, but isn't a slap on the wrist better than committing...
48:14...murder?
48:15I told you, Grayson went too far.
48:17No, you went too far.
48:18It wasn't a fake document.
48:19...you were hiding.
48:21It was Melissa Auerbach's name.
48:23That was the reason that you wanted all of this to stay hidden forever.
48:28You knew.
48:29The jury wasn't gonna see some benevolent Robin Hood giving houses to the poor.
48:35They would see a lying banker, a cheating husband.
48:39They would see you bashing a fallen man's skull in until you can see his brains.
48:45That's enough, detective!
48:46No!
48:47That's overkill.
48:48Counselor, that is intent.
48:49The man was down.
48:51He was not a threat anymore.
48:52And if you take this to trial, this all comes out.
48:56And your family will have to live through that horror in public.
48:59And for what?
49:01A moment of bliss?
49:02To have your ego stroked by a beautiful young woman?
49:05Detective Graf!
49:07So how much more pain do you want them to go through, huh?
49:10I'm so sorry.
49:12I'm no Theo Forrester, but let's pretend.
49:16Excuse me.
49:17I'm sorry.
49:17I'm sorry.
49:19I'm sorry.
49:19I'm sorry.
49:21But how did you find out your husband was having an affair?
49:26Did he accidentally whisper to you one night?
49:29Did he tell you she was pregnant?
49:33And what will your relationship be with your husband's love child?
49:38Welcoming?
49:38What do you think?
49:44What do you think?
49:46What do you think?
49:47Somebody!
49:48Let me!
49:49Let me!
49:51Let us!
49:53Oh no!
50:02I just spoke with Forrester.
50:05He got a guilty plea from Adrian Hennings.
50:08Second degree.
50:10No trouble.
50:12I guess Henning found his heart.
50:14Or he just looked at the numbers.
50:21You going home, Graf?
50:28I am.
50:38All right.
