Transcript
00:00:21Bring me my blanket. It's freezing down here.
00:00:35Hurry up. You forgot to put this heat on. Nurse, switch legs on your phone and do your job.
00:00:44You forgot to put this heat on your phone.
00:01:27Hey, Bobby.
00:01:28Edie, got a live one. You start today.
00:01:31Okay.
00:01:32I think you mean thank you, Bobby. I could really use the work.
00:01:40Sorry, I was at Hilga's wake yesterday, so I'm a little, you know.
00:01:47Okay, I'm ready.
00:01:49Lynette Versterberg, 84, bad legs, bad heart, brain fine. Address, 1512 Baldwin Road. Gate code 3950. Soon as possible. Empty
00:01:59house.
00:01:59Okay, you got it.
00:02:00Hey, show a little bit more enthusiasm when you meet the dinosaur. She's filthy rich. Whatever it takes to keep
00:02:06her happy. Capiche?
00:02:07Yep.
00:02:16Look at your truck.
00:02:21Okay.
00:02:36Ma'am.
00:02:37Ooh, I was gonna do coffee, but are you making tea?
00:02:42You know it. You're up early.
00:02:44I thought you were resting before the funeral.
00:02:47Yeah, uh, no funeral for me.
00:02:49Had another job. On the hills this time.
00:02:52Oh no, Edie already? Your last client's not even in the ground yet.
00:02:56How long do you have to live at this house?
00:02:59As long as she's got, I guess.
00:03:01Tell Bobby you need some time.
00:03:03I want time, but I need money.
00:03:06Student loans don't care that I'm grieving.
00:03:09Roomie, living nursing is a tough job.
00:03:12Even if you won't take my wise advice to throw it all away and start a tea shop,
00:03:17you still need to take care of yourself.
00:03:19I am taking care of myself.
00:03:21Doesn't count. I want to see you get paid for that liquid gold.
00:03:27Can't you at least ask Bobby for the weekends off?
00:03:29Claire, you know he would fire me for even asking.
00:03:33Honestly, it's all good.
00:03:35I've got my health, I've got a job, I have amazing friends.
00:03:39I'm lucky.
00:03:40My clients don't have any of that.
00:03:42They have money.
00:03:43Yeah, they have money.
00:03:44But what does that get them?
00:03:45A stranger who lives in their house and occasionally checks them for bed sores?
00:03:49Whose life would you rather have?
00:03:50Theirs are mine.
00:03:51Can you take game night off? It's one night.
00:03:54Yeah, I'll try.
00:03:57Man, Edie, you have got to open up a tea shop.
00:04:01Yeah, yeah, when I win the lotto.
00:04:22Hey, stop, stop, stop.
00:04:29Hi.
00:04:29I figured you didn't want to murder on your hands the first day of the job.
00:04:34You must be the new nurse.
00:04:35Yeah, and you must be the tire slusher.
00:04:39What?
00:04:41Oh, no, no, this is a tool.
00:04:43I forgot I was holding it.
00:04:45I'm the gardener.
00:04:46Forgetful gardener.
00:04:47Well, hey, as long as I'm not admitting you to memory care.
00:04:51Wait, what?
00:04:52Eldercare joke.
00:04:54I'm Edie.
00:04:56Oh, uh...
00:04:58Hey, I, uh, I'm Mateo.
00:05:01Nice to meet you.
00:05:01Nice to meet you.
00:05:02Welcome, good luck.
00:05:03She barely talks to me.
00:05:16Hello?
00:05:20Miss Fursterberg, I'm Edie, your new home pair aide.
00:05:31I'm with First Sunrise.
00:05:33They said you were notified.
00:05:35Is there no longer such thing as basic human dignity?
00:05:41What?
00:05:42You barred into my home, hollering down my halls, prowling around like a predator on the hunt.
00:05:48Mrs. Fursterberg.
00:05:50Ms.
00:05:50If I had married, my husband would be out there trimming those rose bushes.
00:05:55And not that overpriced idiot.
00:05:58Ms.
00:05:59Fursterberg, I am Miss Edie Brown.
00:06:02And I am sorry for barging in like that, but, I mean, that's protocol when a homebound client has been
00:06:08without care for several hours.
00:06:09Look, my job here is to be in service to your well-being and make sure you're as comfortable as
00:06:15possible.
00:06:15So, if you could...
00:06:16No thanks!
00:06:18Goodbye!
00:06:20Do you have someone else here in the house that's, uh, assisting you?
00:06:25I'm in the middle of arranging my finances and the last thing I need is a granny nanny to train.
00:06:32That's a good one.
00:06:33Um, but if there's no one else here that has a nursing license, I can't leave.
00:06:40You're trespassing.
00:06:41If you don't leave, I'll have you arrested.
00:06:46Okay, how about you start by hopping up out of that chair and tossing me out the door.
00:06:51What?!
00:06:51Great! Looks like your file's correct.
00:06:53No mental decline. Fully aware of your wheelchair dependence.
00:06:57I'm gonna take that to mean you understand why I can't leave you here alone.
00:07:01You... you don't...
00:07:02Great. I'm so glad that we have all of that cleared up.
00:07:05So, if you could just show me your bedroom, your primary bathroom, all of your medications,
00:07:09and anything else that you think might help me get you through your day-to-day.
00:07:13We can go ahead and get started.
00:07:17This way. Come.
00:07:21Okay.
00:07:25How long have you been a nurse?
00:07:27About six years.
00:07:29Remarkable.
00:07:31So, who all works here?
00:07:33Just that bozo in the bushes.
00:07:36So you have no housekeeper, no...
00:07:38They're all useless and expensive. Like you, I'm sure.
00:07:44Are you gonna get that?
00:07:46I only get junk calls.
00:07:51You have reached Bell Telephone. This number has been disconnected. Goodbye.
00:07:57You recognize that number?
00:07:59Stranger.
00:08:00Okay.
00:08:01Well, they are blocked.
00:08:04That's an unusual skill for a nurse.
00:08:07Ha ha.
00:08:12So, do doctors call you on your landline?
00:08:16They leave voicemails.
00:08:20Well, if doctors are calling on your landline, we can't just be ignoring calls.
00:08:27I can screen the numbers for you and block out all the spam numbers.
00:08:31Well, you edit my diaries too. Don't touch my phone.
00:08:35You got it, boss.
00:08:37So, if you could just show me your meds and then we can see my room?
00:08:40I do have one refill I need.
00:08:43I'm out.
00:08:45Okay.
00:08:49There's poor sales service on the property, so you'll need wifi.
00:08:52The password's over there on the dresser.
00:08:56Okay.
00:08:57After you finish some packing, we'll go to the bank.
00:09:00You got it, boss.
00:09:14What are you doing?
00:09:17Well, seems like you think I might be stealing something, so...
00:09:21take a look through my bag before we head out.
00:09:23Well, your assertiveness may prove useful at some point.
00:09:45Miss Versteberg, isn't it just the highest honor to have you
00:09:50visiting our modest establishment on this fine day?
00:09:53How can we help you?
00:09:55Here.
00:10:00Miss Versteberg, you know I hold you in the utmost regard,
00:10:03but are you aware that this request would dissolve all of your accounts with us?
00:10:07I filled the damn thing out, didn't I?
00:10:09Miss Versteberg, I must advise against this.
00:10:11Please, let us know what we can do to...
00:10:13I need to transfer my assets to a trusted advisor who can...
00:10:17And you don't trust me?
00:10:19You are not my financial planner.
00:10:22I see.
00:10:24Well, is this...
00:10:26Avery Simpson interested in opening an account with us?
00:10:30No, that's impossible.
00:10:31Avery Simpson is not based here.
00:10:34Miss Versteberg, perhaps I can secure some additional perks for your valued account.
00:10:39Give me just a moment.
00:10:39Stop wasting my time.
00:10:41I want to dissolve my accounts.
00:10:43I'm here in person to complete this request.
00:10:45I have my ID.
00:10:46Oh, I hardly think I need that, Miss Versteberg.
00:10:49I would know you anywhere, but please, just reconsider this...
00:10:53Listen to what I'm saying.
00:10:53Miss Versteberg?
00:10:55Water?
00:10:56Not now, Edie.
00:10:59See how that works, Mr. Kern?
00:11:01I asked if she wanted water, and she said no.
00:11:03And I respect her by not pressing her on it.
00:11:09The look on his face.
00:11:11He'd never been sussed by an aide before.
00:11:13Yeah, dude looked like he was gonna have an aneurysm.
00:11:15I was going to have an aneurysm if he kept mooning about my account.
00:11:19Oh, but he holds you in the utmost respect.
00:11:23We need to get out of here.
00:11:25Is everything okay?
00:11:28Hurry up!
00:11:37Well, it looks like your refill is ready.
00:11:39I can go pick that up.
00:11:40Here, take this.
00:11:43What is it?
00:11:44It's mace.
00:11:45You'll need it.
00:11:47Why?
00:11:48I'm being targeted.
00:11:49Last night it was an attempted robbery.
00:11:52Today, a man was watching us leave the bank.
00:11:56Someone or some group is trying to target me.
00:11:59Now, what is it exactly that you think they're trying to do?
00:12:02I know what they're trying to do.
00:12:04They're trying to rob me.
00:12:05Or worse.
00:12:07Worse?
00:12:08My death would make a lot of people very rich.
00:12:11Okay, I think the police should probably be...
00:12:14The police were here last night when the guy got away.
00:12:16They know everything.
00:12:17Are you saying that he was here as in inside this house?
00:12:21Boss, that is terrifying.
00:12:23You can't even imagine.
00:12:25So take that.
00:12:27If a man follows you, don't hesitate.
00:12:30He saw us together.
00:12:31Just spray and run.
00:12:33You know what?
00:12:34I am sure that that pharmacy can deliver.
00:12:37No.
00:12:38I don't want anyone coming through that gate except you and the airhead plant man.
00:12:43So you go.
00:12:45I don't feel like that's a great idea.
00:12:47Well, just fine.
00:12:49Don't go get my medication.
00:12:50But no one is delivering it and I'm not going back out there.
00:13:09I'm not going back out there.
00:13:12Hey!
00:13:15Hi!
00:13:16How's the first day?
00:13:17Well, it's a lot.
00:13:20Yeah, yeah.
00:13:20She can be a lot.
00:13:21Or so I hear.
00:13:23I basically never see her.
00:13:24Actually, I had some questions for you.
00:13:27Are you going to the pharmacy?
00:13:28No, actually I'm sneaking into the art store.
00:13:31Oh, cool. You do art?
00:13:33Yeah, you know, like watercolors.
00:13:35No way. What do you paint?
00:13:36Turtles.
00:13:37I mean, I would if people stopped trying to turn him into roadkill.
00:13:40No, that's awesome. That's great.
00:13:42I mean, it's nice to have a hobby.
00:13:44Yeah, a hobby.
00:13:45Yeah, I guess you could say it's a hobby.
00:13:47And what would you call it?
00:13:49Dream job.
00:13:51Oh, wow.
00:13:53No, that's really cool.
00:13:54Good for you.
00:13:55Yeah, all right.
00:13:56You think I'm naive, but I'm telling you,
00:13:58all it takes is one rich person to see my stuff.
00:14:00I mean, it could happen.
00:14:01Speaking of rich people, I was going to ask you...
00:14:03Actually, I do have to go.
00:14:04They're about to close, but I will see you later, okay?
00:14:07Sure.
00:14:07Talk to you in a bit.
00:14:23Here you go.
00:14:25So, this break-in that happened, your old nurse was here when it all went down?
00:14:29She showed up just in time.
00:14:32Helped scare him off.
00:14:33And you didn't see his face?
00:14:34No, he was wearing a mask.
00:14:36And he didn't take anything.
00:14:37It happened so very fast.
00:14:39Very shocking.
00:14:40I'm sure.
00:14:41Do the police have any suspects, or do you have...?
00:14:44Is it your goal to give me nightmares?
00:14:47Of course not.
00:14:48We can talk about this tomorrow.
00:14:50What else is there to talk about?
00:14:53Someone broke into my home and scared me and my nurse half to death.
00:14:56Yeah, and then she just...
00:14:57Bounced on you?
00:14:58I mean, that's kind of messed up.
00:15:00What's messed up, as you put it, is that we're still talking about this.
00:15:04Unless you have secondary training as a detective, leave it.
00:15:09I'm handling it.
00:15:11Of course, boss.
00:15:12You ready?
00:15:12No.
00:15:14Hey.
00:15:16I've got you.
00:15:18I promise.
00:15:21One.
00:15:23Two.
00:15:24Three.
00:15:25All right.
00:15:26I'll be good.
00:15:27I'll switch you back.
00:15:28Okay?
00:15:31All right.
00:15:33See?
00:15:34Wasn't so bad.
00:15:35Stronger than I look.
00:15:36Are you calling me fat?
00:15:38What?
00:15:39Hell no.
00:15:40In fact, you've got killer muscle tone.
00:15:42You must have that athlete gene.
00:15:44A lot of good it did me.
00:15:47Okay.
00:15:48Night, boss.
00:15:50Night.
00:16:12Nice place.
00:16:19Hey, Claire.
00:16:19Sorry.
00:16:20You okay?
00:16:21Yeah, yeah.
00:16:22Totally fine.
00:16:22Just got lost in this maze of a mansion.
00:16:24God, I swear, it's like something straight out of Downton Abbey.
00:16:27At any minute, Lady Mary's gonna turn the corner and ask me what's for dinner.
00:16:30What is for dinner?
00:16:32Very funny.
00:16:33You'll be glad to know that I did not have to cook for her.
00:16:35How is she?
00:16:36How's the job?
00:16:38It's different.
00:16:39I mean, she's a smart lady.
00:16:40I'll give her that.
00:16:41But she has this crazy story about a break-in and someone stalking her, so...
00:16:45Oh my God, Edie, that's scary.
00:16:47That's what I said, but...
00:16:48I mean, she's got this big-ass security gate, and she has a burglar alarm, and I'm pretty sure
00:16:52that there are cameras everywhere, and some guy just waltzes past all that and doesn't get caught.
00:16:57I don't know.
00:16:58It doesn't make any sense.
00:16:59So you think she's making it up?
00:17:01Why?
00:17:02No, but hallucinations and paranoia, it's a sign of Alzheimer's.
00:17:07Oh, you think?
00:17:09I don't know.
00:17:11She seems really sharp.
00:17:12Like, she has jokes.
00:17:13I mean, she could be totally fine mentally.
00:17:15So she is being stalked?
00:17:17Yeah.
00:17:18I don't know.
00:17:19It seems like she was fighting with her previous nurse, which is also another sign of Alzheimer's.
00:17:23Okay, Edie, either way, this job sounds like bad news.
00:17:27Come home.
00:17:28You know I can't leave her like this.
00:17:29Edie, you have to stop acting like every one of these little old ladies is your grandmother.
00:17:34You know, I'm gonna see what I can do about game night, okay?
00:17:37Have you talked to her about it yet?
00:17:39Not yet.
00:17:40Edie, I'm gonna see what I can do, okay?
00:17:42I promise.
00:17:51Help, help!
00:18:00Mrs. Fursterberg?
00:18:05Hello?
00:18:06Help!
00:18:13Oh, my God.
00:18:44Okay, um, disable sleep mode on alarm system.
00:19:01Okay, 73189.
00:19:11Hey.
00:19:14Mateo, hi.
00:19:15Good morning.
00:19:15These are for Ms. V to help cheer her up on a recent scare.
00:19:20Well, that is super sweet of you.
00:19:22I'll let her know that you brought these by.
00:19:24No, you know what?
00:19:25Just put it somewhere she can see.
00:19:27I'm pretty sure she still thinks I'm part of the automatic sprinkler system.
00:19:30Oh, I was just coming out to grab the papers.
00:19:33Yeah, of course.
00:19:34No, I'll, uh, I'll leave you to your morning, okay?
00:19:36Oh, actually, um, just one thing before you go.
00:19:39You mentioned a scare.
00:19:41Do you know what happened exactly?
00:19:43Wait, she didn't tell you?
00:19:44I mean, I know Ms. V is private, but still.
00:19:46Well, I mean, she told me that there was some sort of a break-in.
00:19:49Yeah, scary stuff.
00:19:51I don't know much.
00:19:52You know, I work outside, but, yeah, her old nurse didn't talk much, but, I mean, she was hurt pretty
00:19:57bad.
00:19:58Hospitalized, I think.
00:20:00I'm sorry, her old nurse is in the hospital right now?
00:20:03Are you serious?
00:20:05Well, yeah, I mean, that's why you're here, right?
00:20:12Freaking Bobby.
00:20:17I mean, I knew there was an emergency.
00:20:19But, I mean, I had no idea.
00:20:21Well, I mean, you should know.
00:20:22In fact, you know, frankly, you should get that, uh, what's it called?
00:20:25You can get some hazard pay out of it.
00:20:27Yeah, right, that is, that is absolutely not happening.
00:20:31Okay, well, no, I get it.
00:20:32You know, we're both replaceable.
00:20:34It's a tough job market.
00:20:35It's just, be careful, okay?
00:20:37Um, I'd hate to see you get hurt.
00:20:42I will.
00:20:44Um, thanks.
00:20:46Thanks.
00:20:53No, smooth it out.
00:20:55Well, I'm not done yet.
00:20:57You've made me look like a mad scientist.
00:21:07Mateo mentioned that your old nurse was hurt the other night.
00:21:11How does he know?
00:21:13Said she was rushed to the hospital.
00:21:15Is that true?
00:21:16Yes, it is.
00:21:17She did.
00:21:18Wow.
00:21:20Well, don't blame me.
00:21:21I didn't hurt her.
00:21:23Of course not.
00:21:26That's why your room looked like you pitched a fit.
00:21:28Excuse me?
00:21:30You know, the clothes strewn about everywhere.
00:21:32You got yourself ready.
00:21:34Makes sense.
00:21:34That's right.
00:21:35She was rushed to the emergency room.
00:21:39You know how she's doing?
00:21:42She hasn't been able to speak.
00:21:47So where is the nurse that I'm replacing?
00:21:50Ungrateful brat never called.
00:21:52Yeah, Bobby, because she literally cannot speak.
00:21:54She is in the hospital.
00:21:55You know where she is?
00:21:56Why are you asking me?
00:21:58Which hospital is she in, Bobby?
00:22:00You know what?
00:22:00Look.
00:22:01How am I supposed to know?
00:22:02Bobby, I've got to go.
00:22:06What is it?
00:22:07Electronic lift.
00:22:09To move me from the chair to the bed.
00:22:11Okay, I don't understand.
00:22:13So you can leave.
00:22:15Be safe.
00:22:16Boss.
00:22:16I value my independence.
00:22:18You value your safety.
00:22:20Everybody wins.
00:22:23Thing is, I also happen to value your safety.
00:22:26How about we get breakfast started?
00:22:30By the way, what was the name of your last nurse?
00:22:34Mary something.
00:22:36Mary Shelley.
00:22:38Wait.
00:22:39No.
00:22:46Oh, a pen.
00:22:47That's brave.
00:22:49What was the local paper?
00:22:51Ah, well, that one is the easiest.
00:22:54Except for last Sunday.
00:22:57That one was hard.
00:22:58It was.
00:22:59Well, it's dumb hard, not clever hard.
00:23:01That one clue.
00:23:03Nice way to say hello.
00:23:05Yeah.
00:23:06Bonjour.
00:23:07But they hit the capitalization in the front, so we wouldn't know it was nice.
00:23:12It's idiotic.
00:23:14And then yesterday's puzzle.
00:23:16You're young.
00:23:17I bet you just powered through.
00:23:18No one uses the term e-girl.
00:23:21Isn't that what young people say?
00:23:24No one I know.
00:23:26Well, good.
00:23:26I'm not totally irrelevant yet.
00:23:28Not even close.
00:23:31That one has my favorite puzzles.
00:23:33Oh, those are objectively the best.
00:23:36It's even written about.
00:23:38Oh, I believe it.
00:23:44Fine.
00:23:45Go get it.
00:23:51Hello?
00:23:54Do you know of Preston?
00:23:56Scammer.
00:23:5980?
00:24:00I'm blocking the number.
00:24:01Just a sec.
00:24:03Okay.
00:24:07Where is the security footage from that night?
00:24:09Well, the police have it.
00:24:11But it was nothing.
00:24:12It was just the floodlights gone.
00:24:15You have a camera pointed right at the drive gate.
00:24:17How did he get in?
00:24:19I don't know.
00:24:20I don't know.
00:24:22I don't know.
00:25:24Where did you find the portal in Narnia?
00:25:26That must be how we got in.
00:25:29Oh, you mean the robber?
00:25:31Yeah, I mean, he didn't use the drive gate. He wasn't on any of the security footage.
00:25:35Do you think you could patch it?
00:25:36Yeah, absolutely. Easy.
00:25:37Thanks.
00:25:38Yeah.
00:25:40Hey.
00:25:41Yeah?
00:25:42If it was a portal, where would it go?
00:25:45What?
00:25:46Well, I mean, the hole. You know? What's the dream? You know, where do you want to be transported to?
00:25:52I don't know. I'm pretty rooted in reality, so...
00:25:54Come on, indulge me. How am I supposed to seal this hole? I don't know where it goes.
00:25:59Okay. Uh...
00:26:01It's used for time travel.
00:26:02Is it a time travel portal?
00:26:04Yep.
00:26:04I love it. Okay. Listen, I shall seal the portal.
00:26:08Okay.
00:26:08And restore the cosmic order of time.
00:26:10Bye, Mateo.
00:26:14Later.
00:26:20You really should hire a security guard.
00:26:22No.
00:26:23Well, why not?
00:26:25Do you know what they cost? My goal is to avoid being robbed blind.
00:26:30Pretty sure it's going to cost less than your entire estate and your life.
00:26:35I don't want people milling about, gawking at the poor old rich lady.
00:26:38Okay. Well, what if it's not a person?
00:26:49This is foolish.
00:26:51Well, it's the best option we have if you won't hire a real guard.
00:27:03Hey.
00:27:04Hi. I saw your pup's job. It looks great.
00:27:07Your wish.
00:27:08This is Michael Mann.
00:27:10Yes.
00:27:10Uh, right now, I'm just trimming around the camera.
00:27:12Just, you know, making sure you got a clear view.
00:27:14Awesome. It looks great. Pragmatic. I like it.
00:27:17Well, thank you. I'm trying.
00:27:19Well, goody, fix it. We can go back.
00:27:23We are going to go get a guard dog.
00:27:25That's perfect.
00:27:26I know.
00:27:27It's ridiculous.
00:27:29She's going to love it.
00:27:30My legs don't work, but my ears are just fine.
00:27:33I may tolerate it, but I will not love it.
00:27:36Boss, I bet your entire estate, you're going to love it.
00:27:40Gamblin' animals.
00:27:42What a circus.
00:27:45Okay. See you later.
00:27:56He's here.
00:27:58Are you sure?
00:27:59The black SUV.
00:28:01Hey.
00:28:02It's him. I know it.
00:28:04Stop.
00:28:06Excuse me.
00:28:08You'll catch up.
00:28:09Not a chance.
00:28:22Are you okay?
00:28:23We actually lost him.
00:28:25Oh, we need to keep moving.
00:28:26Good idea.
00:28:27I'm calling the police in case that guy is still lurking.
00:28:34Yes, officer.
00:28:35If you could just let me know when you've done the sweep.
00:28:39We good?
00:28:40Mm-hmm.
00:28:41Fine.
00:28:41You still want a dog, not a man?
00:28:44Oh, don't pin this idea on me.
00:28:46I don't want either.
00:28:49Guard dog it is.
00:28:55He's going to be great.
00:28:58We'll see.
00:28:59His bark is terrifying.
00:29:01He is very alert.
00:29:04Did they say he was trained?
00:29:07Yeah.
00:29:08I think he was the one.
00:29:10All right.
00:29:11So did you guys get your guard to the...
00:29:14Oh, man.
00:29:18He's very loud.
00:29:19Oh, no.
00:29:21You're very scary, aren't you?
00:29:22Yes, you are.
00:29:24What's his name?
00:29:26Killer.
00:29:30Hey there, buddy.
00:29:31I'm going to give you some treats and get on your good side.
00:29:38Oh, hello, sir.
00:29:49Oh, I'll just go ahead and lock up after you.
00:29:52I mean, there's no need.
00:29:53You got killer now.
00:29:54Right.
00:29:55Very funny.
00:29:57But seriously, you did good.
00:30:01Thanks.
00:30:02Killer's a good dog.
00:30:03You'll see.
00:30:04He's a fighter.
00:30:05Yeah, I don't know about that.
00:30:06But what I do know is you're really helping out Miss V.
00:30:11Well, it is literally my job.
00:30:14That's not what I mean.
00:30:16Look, she's never gone along with any of the staff.
00:30:18And you're really getting her to open up.
00:30:21I think it's great.
00:30:22I don't know.
00:30:23No, no, no, I do.
00:30:25This is the most I've seen her in.
00:30:27Jeez, like ever.
00:30:30Well, thanks.
00:30:31That actually means a lot to me.
00:30:34Yeah, sure, no problem.
00:30:35Yeah.
00:30:39Hey, where would you go first?
00:30:41Where would I go?
00:30:42Yeah, yeah, the time travel portal.
00:30:44Seriously, listen, I've been thinking about it all day.
00:30:46Wow, you're really something else, huh?
00:30:48Come on, you're going to have the time in mind.
00:30:52Okay, when I was a kid, Grandma's kitchen, making tea from scratch.
00:30:58Okay, making potions with Grandma, huh?
00:31:00That is exactly it.
00:31:01We used to do this entire thing where we would take the kitchen,
00:31:03and it would be Grandma's tea shop, okay?
00:31:06So I would come in, dressed up, all official.
00:31:08She would take my order.
00:31:09I would sit down.
00:31:10At the end, she'd bring me a bill,
00:31:12something I could pay in pebbles or something.
00:31:15No, pebbles are prime currency in Grandma's bill.
00:31:17100%.
00:31:18That and hugs.
00:31:20Wow, she sounds like a special lady.
00:31:23Yeah, she really was.
00:31:26It's a great memory.
00:31:28I have a lot of good memories with her.
00:31:30I always wish that I had more of them,
00:31:32but I was lucky I got a lot.
00:31:36Well, thank you, because now I've got that one too.
00:31:39Well, you're welcome.
00:31:41Yeah.
00:31:45Right.
00:31:46Yeah.
00:31:57All right, you have everything you need.
00:31:59Oh, do you want the dog with you?
00:32:01Who, killer?
00:32:01He'd probably just urinate in the bed.
00:32:05Pretty sure he's housebroken.
00:32:06He's better out there, guarding the premises.
00:32:09You got it, boss.
00:32:11Edie?
00:32:12Yes?
00:32:13Thank you for your help today.
00:32:16Of course.
00:32:18Night.
00:32:45Are you okay?
00:32:46Where is he?
00:32:47Did you see him?
00:32:49Okay.
00:32:49Um, the alarm is going off, so that means the police are on their way.
00:32:54Hi, lock the door so we will stay right here, okay?
00:32:56Boss, I think you're having a bit of a panic attack.
00:32:59Have some water.
00:33:00I got you, boss.
00:33:02You're safe.
00:33:02We're safe.
00:33:05Is it him?
00:33:06Is he here?
00:33:08He's in the house.
00:33:10Oh, no.
00:33:11Kill her.
00:33:12What are we doing?
00:33:14Police, open up.
00:33:19Oh, no.
00:33:21Oh, no.
00:33:21Oh, no.
00:33:22Oh, no.
00:33:24Oh, no.
00:33:24Oh, no.
00:33:25Oh, no.
00:33:27Oh, no.
00:33:30Same guy?
00:33:31Do you mean to say you still haven't found him?
00:33:33No, ma'am.
00:33:34Did he confront you again?
00:33:36Well, you didn't see him.
00:33:38I didn't.
00:33:38Did you?
00:33:39No, I came straight to you first.
00:33:41You were in her room?
00:33:42Yes.
00:33:43And what did you see?
00:33:44In her room?
00:33:46Well, nothing.
00:33:47But there were noises.
00:33:48We heard noises, and Killer heard noises.
00:33:51The Killer?
00:33:51No.
00:33:52Killer is our guard dog.
00:33:53You have a guard dog?
00:33:55Yes.
00:33:56And he was pursuing the so-called intruder?
00:33:58He was barking.
00:34:00So-called?
00:34:01Look.
00:34:02We searched the house.
00:34:03We reviewed Mrs. Westerberg's footage.
00:34:05There's no sign of entry.
00:34:07Now, it is possible that, um...
00:34:13Killer, I presume.
00:34:18This is a very big house for two ladies to live in all alone.
00:34:22Well, yeah, it's really big, but...
00:34:24And it's completely understandable if you feel like you need a little extra security.
00:34:28So here's what we're gonna do.
00:34:31That goes direct to my desk.
00:34:33Okay, I mean no disrespect here, but this is the second break-in attempt, and you haven't
00:34:39caught the guy, so shouldn't you be out patrolling the streets around here instead of sitting
00:34:43behind your desk?
00:34:45I can make that request.
00:34:47Yeah.
00:34:47We should do that.
00:34:49Of course.
00:34:51Now, you ladies just need to relax.
00:34:54Take a bubble bath, watch some TV, unwind.
00:34:57There's nothing for you to worry about.
00:34:59And if you do feel worried, or feel like you need to talk, you have my number.
00:35:05You know what?
00:35:06Thanks for stopping by.
00:35:08Oh, don't forget to lock after I leave.
00:35:14That guy thinks we're just lonely.
00:35:16The ego he must have to imagine that we're preoccupied with him.
00:35:20Boss, I am so sorry.
00:35:22Re-arm the alarm.
00:35:24Make sure all the doors are secure.
00:35:50What are you doing?
00:35:55Edie, get out of there once.
00:35:58Sorry, I must have gotten turned around.
00:36:00I guess the cop left the door open.
00:36:03What is that awful smell?
00:36:05It's probably dead rats.
00:36:07Mateo just put down poison.
00:36:09Get up here immediately.
00:36:10Hurry.
00:36:11I mean, shouldn't I clean this up first?
00:36:13Also, I busted my phone.
00:36:14Leave that.
00:36:15We'll do that later.
00:36:17Okay.
00:36:27Now, what if we hire a security guard that just works the night shift?
00:36:31That's pointless.
00:36:32Security guards are just cops without training.
00:36:36But at least someone would physically be here.
00:36:39I mean, that's worth something, right?
00:36:41You heard the man last night.
00:36:43We're getting a patrol car.
00:36:45You're not budging on this, are you?
00:36:55There's a pencil over there.
00:36:58What is this?
00:37:02Seems my printer makes copies, too.
00:37:05This is very nice of you, Lynette.
00:37:07I don't need you breathing down my neck all morning.
00:37:14No peeking.
00:37:15In your dreams.
00:37:36Come on, Lynette.
00:37:39Hey, can I get that basement key?
00:37:42You're trying to give me a heart attack.
00:37:44Sorry.
00:37:44What do you need in the basement?
00:37:46I was going to go clean up that glass.
00:37:49That.
00:37:49Never mind that.
00:37:51Here.
00:37:52Go get a new phone.
00:37:55This is way too much for a new phone.
00:37:57Well, it's for a new phone and to also compensate you as you leave this post.
00:38:02Boss.
00:38:03I won't tell your supervisor a thing.
00:38:06Get out now before you get hurt.
00:38:08I'm not going to abandon you.
00:38:09And if it is actually that risky, you need to hire a guard.
00:38:13Edie, what exactly do you think this relationship is?
00:38:19What?
00:38:20I'm not your mother.
00:38:21I'm not your friend.
00:38:23You don't owe me anything.
00:38:24It is my job to keep you safe.
00:38:27And if drinking bleach were your job, would you do that?
00:38:30I'm a nurse.
00:38:31And that is a noble calling.
00:38:33But when the job goes beyond what could be reasonably asked of a human being, the contract is broken.
00:38:39You must move from performing your duties to preserving your dignity.
00:38:44So, take the money and run.
00:38:49I will take what I need for a new phone, and I'll be right back.
00:38:53Friends or not, I like you, boss.
00:39:01Hey, so, bad news.
00:39:03I'm not going to be able to make game night.
00:39:05Aw, boo.
00:39:06Why not?
00:39:07Because the threat is real.
00:39:09I can't leave her here alone.
00:39:10It's too dangerous.
00:39:13Edie, this is above your pay grade.
00:39:16Get out of there.
00:39:17Seriously.
00:39:18I can't.
00:39:19Edie, can you call me here so I know you're over?
00:39:22Hey, I'm losing you.
00:39:24I'll call you right back, okay?
00:39:25Love you.
00:39:26Bye.
00:39:40Excuse me.
00:39:41I'd just like to ask you a question or something.
00:39:43Oh, oh, oh, oh!
00:39:55Finish this one.
00:39:56You guys, I need to...
00:39:58Edie, come sit.
00:39:58We're looking for my birth certificate.
00:40:00You can share from my pile.
00:40:01And I'm famished.
00:40:02I want to finish this stack before lunch.
00:40:04And I promise to make this Q bonus, right?
00:40:05You think these days they could scan my retina for high security accounts, but apparently not.
00:40:10You guys, something happened.
00:40:12What's wrong?
00:40:13I'm calling the cop.
00:40:15Officer Clement?
00:40:16Yes, he came back.
00:40:17No, he did not come back to the house, but he broke into my car.
00:40:20Technically, he did not break into my car, but he attacked me while I was in my car.
00:40:25Well, he grabbed the car door, and then I maced him.
00:40:28But he was the attacker.
00:40:29It wasn't me.
00:40:30Can you put him on speaker?
00:40:31Yeah.
00:40:32To help you, I'm just having trouble understanding what happened.
00:40:35What was the provocation for you to draw your weapon?
00:40:36Are you listening to Edie?
00:40:38She said she was attacked.
00:40:39Who is this?
00:40:39Oh, I'm Edie's friend.
00:40:42Can you guys get serious about this case?
00:40:43Look, we take every allegation serious, but you gotta understand all I hear from her is circumstantial information.
00:40:49I've got nothing to pursue.
00:40:51If you have something, please give it to us.
00:40:53What about the burglar alarms?
00:40:54Like I said before, that alarm can be confusing.
00:40:57There's no shame in struggling with the technology.
00:41:00What are you even talking about?
00:41:01Okay, let me ask you guys this question.
00:41:03What do you need from us to make a case?
00:41:04Bring me any real evidence?
00:41:06Not just what she says, a foul play, and I will do everything I can to work with that.
00:41:10Thank you, Officer Clement.
00:41:15Okay, I don't understand.
00:41:16How can you say there's not evidence?
00:41:17They have the footage from last night.
00:41:19I mean, that dude has to be on it.
00:41:21Can we see it, boss?
00:41:22Well, I have no idea how.
00:41:25They have their own access at the company.
00:41:28Okay, well, where is your security room?
00:41:29Security room?
00:41:31Your monitors.
00:41:32Monitors?
00:41:33This isn't the Pentagon.
00:41:35The footage is on there, but I can't remember the login.
00:41:39Well, this is your password book, right?
00:41:46Here it is, security.
00:41:48Do you mind?
00:41:49Would you look at that?
00:41:51Ooh.
00:41:53I'm having a hunger pain.
00:41:55Cubanos.
00:41:56Yes.
00:41:57Right? Cubanos.
00:41:58It's that time.
00:41:58Come on.
00:42:00Wait, but...
00:42:01I told you I was famished.
00:42:03You ready?
00:42:04All right.
00:42:08So the key is this second cast iron.
00:42:11That's how you get that nice melding of flowers.
00:42:13You act like it's rocket science.
00:42:16What?
00:42:18What?
00:42:23Mateo?
00:42:24I've got something.
00:42:30Hmm?
00:42:32Well, I just watched the footage.
00:42:35Our one and only chance at giving the cops any hard evidence, and...
00:42:38Well, look at this.
00:42:40The driveway cam looks like this since yesterday.
00:42:43What?
00:42:44That's strange.
00:42:46Yeah.
00:42:47It is strange, especially considering that Mateo went through all that trouble,
00:42:50trimming the leaves, so we could see.
00:42:57Oh, my God.
00:42:58What did I do?
00:43:00Yeah, Mateo, just go fix it.
00:43:02Okay.
00:43:03Mm-hmm.
00:43:04Edie, bring the password book to the library.
00:43:07Okay.
00:43:15Open this bottom cabinet.
00:43:17Grab the new English dictionary.
00:43:20Okay.
00:43:27What is that?
00:43:30Let's see.
00:43:32Let's see.
00:43:34Okay.
00:43:39Oh!
00:43:43Now, this is better together.
00:43:48Just look for the birth certificate.
00:43:50Don't bother with anything else.
00:43:56What is this?
00:43:57That was my first trip to Europe.
00:44:00I love that vote.
00:44:01How old were you?
00:44:04Six, I think.
00:44:05Is there a year written on it?
00:44:08I don't think so.
00:44:10Oh, my goodness.
00:44:11Look at you.
00:44:12That is my boarding school picture.
00:44:14My parents sent me there when I was seven years old.
00:44:16Wow.
00:44:17That is really young.
00:44:18I was the youngest kid there.
00:44:20I spent all my time wondering what I'd done wrong for them to get rid of me like that.
00:44:25Lynette, I'm sure they thought you were better off at school than you were at home.
00:44:29Well, maybe, but I didn't see it that way.
00:44:31I just threw myself into making myself as useful as possible.
00:44:35I was doing all my chores best and fastest, acing all my tests, making myself necessary.
00:44:42I didn't want to be sent away again.
00:44:47It's fine.
00:44:48It made me who I am today.
00:44:50Now I call the shots and not them.
00:44:53Oh, what can you do?
00:44:54Parents, they mess you up.
00:44:57Yeah, that's a fact.
00:44:59Oh, I found it.
00:45:01Here it is.
00:45:04Who is Avery Simpson?
00:45:07Oh, it's my financial planner.
00:45:09He's helping me move all my stocks into what he calls stable accounts.
00:45:14Women my age don't need to take big risks, he says.
00:45:18What, so no wheelchair chase escapades for Avery?
00:45:22That's way too fun for Avery.
00:45:42Oh, oh.
00:45:45Everything all right, boss?
00:45:47Oh, just old age.
00:45:50Any sonia there?
00:45:52No, it's all quiet out here.
00:45:55You ready?
00:45:57May I give you some advice about aging?
00:46:00Please.
00:46:00Don't.
00:46:01Avoid old age at all costs.
00:46:04Come on, it's not all bad.
00:46:05Yes, it is.
00:46:06Everybody knows it.
00:46:08That's why they try to make us disappear and shove us in the nursing homes and retirement communities.
00:46:13Those places are to help people thrive.
00:46:15No, they exist because society can't stand seeing bodies decompose when someone's still living inside it.
00:46:22Well, I think age is cool.
00:46:25It's powerful.
00:46:26When you've lived some life, you've got street cred, you know?
00:46:29You've got aches and bones you never knew existed.
00:46:32Are you telling me I'm going to discover bones as I age?
00:46:34See what I'm talking about?
00:46:35That's badass, boss.
00:46:45Where are we?
00:46:47We're at my place.
00:46:48We're not going to go back to yours.
00:46:49What do you mean?
00:46:50We're officially hiding out.
00:46:51And bonus, it's game night.
00:46:54Absolutely not.
00:46:55This is the safest place for you to be.
00:46:57Look, everyone expects you to be at your house, not at my place across town.
00:47:02No one is going to find you.
00:47:03I don't want to see inside whatever dingy hovel you call home.
00:47:07I happen to keep my hovel fairly clean, so...
00:47:09This is kidnapping.
00:47:11Well, I packed you an overnight bag.
00:47:12You're going to sleep in my room, and I'm going to take the couch.
00:47:15Oh, God, no.
00:47:17Okay, look, I know it's not your idea of luxury, but it's got to be better than dead.
00:47:23What about killer?
00:47:24Killer's with Mateo, so he's going to be just fine.
00:47:26This is an ambush.
00:47:28And your timing.
00:47:29I have a bag full of valuables on my lap, and I'm quite sure you have no way of safekeeping
00:47:34them.
00:47:34Actually, I do have a place for valuables.
00:47:37I got you, boss.
00:47:42Hey, hey, we made it for game night.
00:47:45Yay!
00:47:46Oh, I'm so glad you made it.
00:47:48And you must be Miss Wursterberg.
00:47:50I've heard so much about you.
00:47:52That's unfortunate.
00:47:54Edie.
00:47:56Oh, yes.
00:48:04Oh, you can't be serious.
00:48:06Oh, come on.
00:48:07Do you actually think anyone is coming here looking for a payday?
00:48:10No.
00:48:24All right.
00:48:26I'll go ahead and get my room ready for you.
00:48:28Claire, do you want to fill her in on game night?
00:48:30Sure.
00:48:31Yes.
00:48:34Let's see.
00:48:35Have you ever played Dungeons and Dragons?
00:48:37I did come of age in the 60s, but my sex party days are long gone.
00:48:43Edie!
00:48:45First of all, that is just a game.
00:48:47Claire, she's not our age.
00:48:49Right.
00:48:50Got it.
00:48:51Let's start over.
00:48:53What do you do for fun?
00:49:05That is me and my grandma, right after I graduated high school.
00:49:10She looks tough.
00:49:11Oh, she was tough.
00:49:12And loving.
00:49:13She practically raised me.
00:49:15My parents weren't really in a position to do that.
00:49:18Unfit.
00:49:20You could say that.
00:49:21And they couldn't afford boarding school, so I went to grandma.
00:49:25That's lucky for you.
00:49:26Yeah.
00:49:27I really was.
00:49:28I loved her.
00:49:30She's gone?
00:49:32Uh-huh.
00:49:33She passed while I was away at college.
00:49:35I could have gone somewhere close by, stayed home with her, but I, um, I didn't.
00:49:43And that's why you do this work.
00:49:50Edie, can you let them in?
00:49:51Yeah.
00:50:01Hi.
00:50:02Can I help you?
00:50:03Hi.
00:50:03I'm just here to talk.
00:50:05Sorry I frightened you earlier.
00:50:07How did you find us?
00:50:08It's my job.
00:50:10Please, may I?
00:50:18You stay right there.
00:50:20What are your intentions with Miss Fursterbird?
00:50:22To keep her safe?
00:50:24Who hired you?
00:50:25A friend of Miss Fursterbird, who's concerned about her well-being.
00:50:29Why'd you bring her here?
00:50:30To keep her away from you.
00:50:31Are you telling me you're not trying to kill her?
00:50:34Are you kidding me?
00:50:35No.
00:50:35I just want to make sure she's okay.
00:50:37Why were you running with her?
00:50:38She could have been hurt.
00:50:39Because you were chasing us?
00:50:43I think we're on the same side.
00:50:45I think you're trying to trick me.
00:50:46Are the phones working okay?
00:50:48My client's been calling the house to check up on her, but she never picks up.
00:50:51Maybe my client doesn't want to speak to your client.
00:50:54That's highly unlikely.
00:50:55They're very close.
00:50:56Unless she's suffered some kind of paranoid break, which, given who you think I am, tracks.
00:51:01Paranoid?
00:51:02Why would you say that?
00:51:04Pressing my client heard that she was the victim of a break-in a few days ago.
00:51:07Right after that, she stood him up for a coffee date, and now he thinks that she's blocked his number.
00:51:13What about you?
00:51:15What's your relationship to Ms. Forsterberg?
00:51:17I'm her home care aide.
00:51:18I'm sorry, did you say your client's name was Preston?
00:51:22Did she mention him?
00:51:26Do you know what Preston?
00:51:28Scammer.
00:51:31And that...
00:51:33I...
00:51:33I should have caught it.
00:51:36Caught what?
00:51:37Mr. Metzler.
00:51:40My client doesn't seem to remember your client anymore.
00:51:44He did call the house the other day, and she thought he was a scammer.
00:51:48So what are you thinking?
00:51:50Dementia?
00:51:52Yeah, somebody else mentioned that she wasn't acting herself lately, and I guess I just completely ignored the signs.
00:52:00I'm really sorry.
00:52:01I see.
00:52:02I'm going to go ahead and take her home now, and I will call memory care first thing in the
00:52:06morning and make sure she gets all of the help she needs.
00:52:09Actually, would you do me a favor and ask your client to please visit her?
00:52:13I know she doesn't remember, but I swear it helps.
00:52:16I'll be sure to let him know.
00:52:18Thank you so much.
00:52:19Yeah, I'm sorry.
00:52:28So I can be a wizard?
00:52:30You can be.
00:52:31Strange game.
00:52:36Where are we?
00:52:37Oh, um...
00:52:40We're going.
00:52:42Really?
00:52:42Oh, my.
00:52:44Finally.
00:52:48Mateo!
00:52:51There's my favorite creature.
00:52:54Oh!
00:52:55I love you.
00:52:57Don't tell anybody.
00:53:00Where is he?
00:53:01I saw his truck out back.
00:53:02He's a hungry boy.
00:53:04Did that doofus not feed him?
00:53:06Well, I'm texting him now.
00:53:09Are you good while I get his food?
00:53:11We'll be fine.
00:53:13Such a baby.
00:53:36You might as well go back to your friends.
00:53:38I can put myself to bed.
00:53:41Uh...
00:53:41Boss, do you remember Preston?
00:53:44The scammer on the phone the other day?
00:53:46Yes, but...
00:53:48Do you know him?
00:53:54You think I'm lying?
00:53:55No.
00:53:56No, I do not think you're lying.
00:53:58You think I'm crazy?
00:53:59I do not think you're crazy.
00:54:01I think you may be a little confused,
00:54:02which is totally normal
00:54:03for an 84-year-old
00:54:05to have the occasional moment of confusion.
00:54:07I'm not confused.
00:54:09I'm sharp as a tack.
00:54:11What's gotten into you?
00:54:13The man who was following us
00:54:15is a private investigator.
00:54:17He was hired by Preston
00:54:19because you've been ignoring his calls.
00:54:21He wanted to make sure
00:54:22that everything was all right.
00:54:23What else did he say?
00:54:25This P.I.
00:54:28Well...
00:54:30He said that Preston
00:54:31heard about the break-in.
00:54:32You didn't show up to a coffee date,
00:54:34so he was worried.
00:54:36Is that ringing a bell?
00:54:40It's all true.
00:54:42We were very close.
00:54:45And he's a scammer.
00:54:47How so?
00:54:48He's a romance scammer.
00:54:50I know, it's just so foolish.
00:54:53He was courting me, I suppose.
00:54:55Or at least pretending to.
00:54:58We hadn't even kissed,
00:54:59and he proposed to me.
00:55:02Wow.
00:55:03Yeah, I couldn't believe it.
00:55:05An old coot like me, desire.
00:55:07Oh, stop it.
00:55:08That is not what I meant.
00:55:09Well, it turns out
00:55:09he just wanted my money.
00:55:11Maybe he would have
00:55:12pretended to love me,
00:55:13or maybe he would have
00:55:14just treated me badly
00:55:16once we were married.
00:55:18Whatever the case,
00:55:19I was being played the fool.
00:55:21I'm really sorry
00:55:23that that happened to you, boss.
00:55:24And I'm sorry that I doubted you.
00:55:25The whole P.I. thing,
00:55:27I don't know,
00:55:27it threw me for a loop.
00:55:30I just didn't want to
00:55:31get into it all with you.
00:55:33I totally understand that.
00:55:34And you know what?
00:55:35Screw that guy.
00:55:37Serves me right
00:55:38for entertaining thoughts
00:55:39of romantic notions
00:55:40at my age.
00:55:42Looking back,
00:55:43it was just so obvious.
00:55:45To be fair,
00:55:46romance can mess
00:55:47with your judgment
00:55:48at any age.
00:55:49Tell me about it.
00:55:52I'm you entrusting Mateo
00:55:54with the care of a dog.
00:55:57No, there's, there's,
00:55:58um, there's no romance there.
00:56:00Oh, okay.
00:56:01I have not touched a hair
00:56:02on that man's head.
00:56:03Oh, look at your face light up.
00:56:07Oh, I don't blame you.
00:56:08He's sweet.
00:56:09We're just friends.
00:56:12Where is he, though?
00:56:14Are you good?
00:56:15Are we good?
00:56:16We're good.
00:56:17Go find him.
00:56:18I'm just concerned.
00:56:20Yeah, of course, of course.
00:56:22I am too.
00:56:23Go find Mateo.
00:56:24Then you can go back
00:56:25with your friends.
00:56:28You trying to get rid of me, boss?
00:56:31I will be right back, okay?
00:56:49Mateo!
00:56:59Mateo!
00:57:00Killer, come here.
00:57:01Come on.
00:57:10Killer!
00:57:10Oh, shit.
00:57:24Boss, there's someone in the basement.
00:57:25Edie, how do you know?
00:57:27Did you see something?
00:57:28No, but Killer was going crazy at the door.
00:57:29Just give me your keys.
00:57:30I need to get down there.
00:57:31Mateo is not answering me.
00:57:33Edie, put the knife down
00:57:34and take a breath.
00:57:35Killer, we must admit,
00:57:37is not a real guard dog.
00:57:38Well, then why would he be
00:57:39barking like that?
00:57:40Well, he probably has PTSD
00:57:42from when you almost
00:57:43broke your neck on the stairs.
00:57:46Just calm down.
00:57:47What about Mateo?
00:57:48Who knows?
00:57:49If I got scared every time
00:57:50he wasn't where he was supposed to be,
00:57:51I died of fright ages ago.
00:57:56You're probably right.
00:57:58I'm sure he's, I don't know,
00:58:00out there chasing fireflies or something.
00:58:03And you thought I was the one
00:58:04losing my marbles.
00:58:06Yeah, look at me.
00:58:07I'm the paranoid one now, huh?
00:58:10That's only natural.
00:58:11It's frightening being targeted.
00:58:14I cannot believe that Bobby
00:58:15didn't tell me anything about this.
00:58:17Your supervisor?
00:58:19He sounds like a real gem.
00:58:22You have no idea.
00:58:24You know what?
00:58:25How about you take a rest?
00:58:26I'll tidy up and then
00:58:28I can make us some tea.
00:58:30Sounds good.
00:58:32Then we can all relax.
00:58:35Goodness.
00:58:38Okay.
00:58:39Here we go.
00:58:40A flower.
00:58:41Oh, my.
00:58:46That'll do.
00:58:49So, if this P.I.,
00:58:51Kurt Metzler,
00:58:52isn't our guy,
00:58:53who do you think is?
00:58:54So many people want my money.
00:58:57Okay, I have to admit,
00:58:58I don't get it.
00:58:59How does this work?
00:59:00What?
00:59:01The money.
00:59:02I mean, who gets it when you die?
00:59:04Sorry.
00:59:05Oh, that's fine.
00:59:07You know,
00:59:08I don't really have any family to speak of.
00:59:11Same.
00:59:12So, I suppose
00:59:13I was yearning for that bond.
00:59:16So, I did one of those
00:59:17ill-advised genealogy test things.
00:59:21Which one did you do?
00:59:23Oh, it's the purple logo one.
00:59:25I did the same thing.
00:59:26Really?
00:59:27Yeah.
00:59:27Did you get a promotional credit in the mail?
00:59:30Yes.
00:59:30It sucked me right in.
00:59:32Well, on mine,
00:59:33several distant relatives popped up,
00:59:35any of whom could inherit my wealth
00:59:37when I die.
00:59:39Do you not have a will?
00:59:40Doesn't that state
00:59:41who gets to inherit the money?
00:59:43Well, I revoked that will long ago.
00:59:45My intended benefactor
00:59:46just broke my heart.
00:59:48I haven't been very lucky in love.
00:59:51Again, same.
00:59:54Can I see your genealogy chart?
00:59:56Well, it's on my computer.
00:59:58Oh, I've got you.
01:00:00I have the app.
01:00:01What is your login?
01:00:02I want to know
01:00:03what our suspect list is.
01:00:05Another login.
01:00:07Who could remember them all?
01:00:10Your password book
01:00:11is still in your bag, right?
01:00:14Here it is.
01:00:16Let's see here.
01:00:20What is that awful noise?
01:00:22Weird.
01:00:24Lynette?
01:00:25What happened?
01:00:29Are you okay?
01:00:30I'm fine,
01:00:31but what's happening?
01:00:33You stay right here.
01:00:35Front door is locked.
01:00:35I will be right back.
01:00:38Where's Killer?
01:00:39Killer!
01:00:42Killer!
01:00:43Killer!
01:00:54So...
01:00:55Oh, no.
01:00:56Ah!
01:01:06Huh?
01:01:30Whoa.
01:01:32Yini?
01:01:33What are you doing here?
01:01:34Mateo, I was so worried.
01:01:35I thought you were, like, kidnapped or dead or something.
01:01:38Where were you?
01:01:39Well, I'm just in the yard, downing a sick tree.
01:01:42Are you okay?
01:01:43Yeah.
01:01:44I'm just freaked.
01:01:46The power went out.
01:01:47Yeah, when the tree came down, it hit the power lines.
01:01:50Hey, is Miss V inside?
01:01:53Why are you downing a tree?
01:01:55It's the middle of the night.
01:01:56I thought you guys were still out.
01:01:58Plus, Miss V hates loud machines.
01:02:00Yeah, she makes me use a manual on more.
01:02:02Wait, you're kidding.
01:02:03Like an old-timey one?
01:02:05Push lower.
01:02:06No motor.
01:02:07I mean, it takes forever.
01:02:09Come on.
01:02:15It's okay, sweetheart.
01:02:16I'll keep you safe.
01:02:19Hi, boss.
01:02:20We're safe.
01:02:22I found your culprit.
01:02:24Sorry.
01:02:24Oh, yes, hello.
01:02:26We have a couple of downed power lines.
01:02:28Yeah, no, no.
01:02:29He's on the phone with the power guys.
01:02:31Well, there's matches over there in the cabinet.
01:02:32On it.
01:02:36Edie, go to your game night.
01:02:39Boss, you should know this by now.
01:02:43I'm not going.
01:02:45Don't be so stubborn.
01:02:47You first.
01:02:48Yeah, okay.
01:02:50Thank you very much.
01:02:52Okay.
01:02:53So, tomorrow morning is the best they can do.
01:02:54Apparently, Windstorm took over the whole grid a few towns over.
01:02:57They sent all the emergency workers there.
01:02:59Well, there's some more candles in the kitchen on top of the fridge.
01:03:02Yes, ma'am.
01:03:07Edie, there's no need for you to sit in a dark house with an old woman and no internet.
01:03:12Go.
01:03:13Have fun with your friends.
01:03:15I'm not going.
01:03:16Please don't.
01:03:17You're doing too much, Edie.
01:03:19You need a break.
01:03:20And frankly, I need a break.
01:03:21See you in your dwelling space.
01:03:23It was more than I had bargained for when I engaged your services.
01:03:28All right, you know what?
01:03:29I'm just going to go unpack your bag.
01:03:54Lynette.
01:03:55What is this?
01:03:57I've had this for ages.
01:03:58Figured I'd pull it out and ride a new wheel.
01:04:01See if I can stop the vultures from circling.
01:04:03No.
01:04:04What is this?
01:04:07I don't like how they make me feel.
01:04:09How do they make you feel?
01:04:11Forgetful.
01:04:12Tired.
01:04:13You know I need to be alert.
01:04:15We can call your doctor and see what our options are.
01:04:18But you can't just stop taking your medications.
01:04:21You need it.
01:04:24Let's just wait and see what the doctor says.
01:04:29Look, I cannot force you to take them.
01:04:31But if you don't, I can't leave your side, not even for a second, until we speak to your doctor.
01:04:36It's too risky.
01:04:39If I take those, will you leave me alone for the night?
01:04:43Sure.
01:04:44Resuming your regimen would be adequate preventative care.
01:04:47So if that's what I need to do to get you to take your meds, I'll go.
01:04:59Really sick of me, huh?
01:05:00These are the drive gate.
01:05:02The keypad doesn't work, and there's no electricity.
01:05:06Please call me if you need anything at all, okay?
01:05:10Goodbye.
01:05:19All right, cash or spill?
01:05:22Nat 20?
01:05:23That's good.
01:05:24Hey, guys.
01:05:26There she is.
01:05:27Edie, you made it.
01:05:28Now we have a game.
01:05:30Hey, are you making hot toddies?
01:05:32She just left work.
01:05:33Let her chill out.
01:05:34Making them does chill me out, so.
01:05:36Chills her out.
01:05:39So, Edie's patient client is the target of, what is it, Edie?
01:05:44A robber?
01:05:45Yeah, something like that.
01:05:47People suck, and that lady is a national treasure.
01:05:50She's really rich, huh?
01:05:52Yeah, and she's also really smart and unexpectedly cool.
01:05:56Is she single?
01:05:57Ew, that's not funny.
01:05:59So sensitive.
01:06:00Look, I literally thought there was someone inside the house tonight trying to kill her, okay?
01:06:05Wait, what?
01:06:05What happened?
01:06:06Yeah, um, it's a long story.
01:06:28Patel?
01:06:36And that is the sad story of Lynette Fursterberg.
01:06:42Okay, so where were we?
01:06:45Wait, wait, Edie.
01:06:46This is an insane job.
01:06:48Thank you, Greg.
01:06:49That's what I keep trying to tell her.
01:06:51Well, it is insane that people will try to take advantage of her because she is old and lonely.
01:06:55Sure, or counterpoint.
01:06:57It's messed up that she has so much money that she might actually have to die over it.
01:07:01I'm sorry, you cannot be serious right now.
01:07:03I mean, it's just working stiffs like us who are just trying to get our fair share.
01:07:06Greg, not cool.
01:07:08We know that you love...
01:07:09You know, if it's like a modern Robin Hood, like redistribution of the wealth, that's
01:07:12a different story.
01:07:13Hold on.
01:07:14Why are we assuming that the criminal is somehow our hero here?
01:07:17Because it's impossible to have rules in a corrupt society.
01:07:20This is not about rules.
01:07:21This is about being a decent human being and protecting society's most vulnerable.
01:07:27Greg's imagining some disenfranchised father of six just trying to put food on the table.
01:07:32Maybe.
01:07:33I mean, could be.
01:07:34I mean, there's plenty of vulnerable people out there, Edie.
01:07:36Hey, you know what?
01:07:36I actually happen to have her genealogy chart right here.
01:07:40It'll be a bunch of other rich people.
01:07:42They stick together.
01:07:44Concentration of wealth.
01:07:45This is what I'm talking about.
01:07:46If she's so good, why don't she just redistribute her wealth amongst the masses?
01:07:49Maybe that's what she's doing.
01:07:50She is working on her will tonight.
01:07:52Really?
01:07:53What if she leaves it all to you?
01:07:56You could open up your tea shop.
01:07:58Yeah, no.
01:07:59She's going to do something big.
01:08:00I don't know what, but something that'll make the papers and let all of her relatives know
01:08:04that killing her would not make them rich.
01:08:06Who might donate it all to charity?
01:08:08Yeah.
01:08:09Honestly, would not be shocked if she donated it all to the animal shelter that her guard dog came from.
01:08:26Mateo, where are you?
01:08:31Mateo, where are you?
01:08:42Mateo, where are you?
01:08:47Well, I've been meaning to talk to you, but Lynette, right?
01:08:52It's Mateo.
01:08:53Katie?
01:08:54I have to go.
01:08:56I can't believe I missed that.
01:08:57Missed what?
01:08:58It's him.
01:08:59What?
01:09:04Boss, pick up.
01:09:06Pick up.
01:09:14This is Clement.
01:09:15Officer Clement, I know who it is.
01:09:17Who am I talking to?
01:09:19Hello?
01:09:20Hello?
01:09:21Come on.
01:09:23What?
01:09:24I know I locked that gate.
01:09:31Clement?
01:09:33Clement?
01:09:34Clement?
01:09:35Clement?
01:10:05I'm sorry, Edie.
01:10:07I didn't want to have to do this.
01:10:08Where is Mateo?
01:10:10Mateo?
01:10:11Mateo's taking Killer to the 24-hour pet hospital three times over.
01:10:15What?
01:10:16What happened?
01:10:17I gave the dog chocolate so I could get them both out of the house.
01:10:20No reason for them to suffer.
01:10:22Suffer?
01:10:23Suffer what?
01:10:24I also gave Mateo my new will so he could mail it to the lawyer.
01:10:29That's thanks to you, Edie.
01:10:32You're such a good accomplice.
01:10:35I...
01:10:36What are you talking about?
01:10:38But I did wonder if I could effectively replace Lynette's original.
01:10:43What a mess.
01:10:44I don't understand.
01:10:46Edie, you deserve to.
01:10:48You see, I thought I had to transfer all the funds to myself.
01:10:52But this is so much easier.
01:10:55If it works.
01:10:56If what works?
01:10:58Of course, the whole thing would have been so much easier if I hadn't felt the need to tell Bobby
01:11:02off.
01:11:03But you know how it is.
01:11:04We got in this big shouting match.
01:11:06And he made me turn in my keys.
01:11:08How do you know Bobby?
01:11:10Bobby never speaks directly to our clients.
01:11:13First Sunrise wouldn't even have any clients if he did.
01:11:16He is such a jerk.
01:11:18Even when he's trying to be nice.
01:11:21True.
01:11:26You're not Lynette Versterberg.
01:11:28Oh.
01:11:29So I didn't give you a concussion.
01:11:31I was wondering.
01:11:33So, what?
01:11:34Are you, like, her case manager?
01:11:36Played her pretty well, though, didn't I?
01:11:38Why on earth would you?
01:11:39Somebody saw us on the street and thought I was her sister.
01:11:42So I got this idea, you know.
01:11:43I thought maybe.
01:11:45I was just so nervous about it.
01:11:46I didn't think I could play it off.
01:11:49Transfer funds.
01:11:52Who is Avery Simpson?
01:11:55Oh, it's my financial planner.
01:11:58You're Avery Simpson.
01:12:00Lynette's former nurse and future benefactor.
01:12:03What have you done?
01:12:05You know, I can barely believe it myself.
01:12:08And I was so terrified when I had to break back into the estate and replace her.
01:12:13What did you do?
01:12:15What I had to do.
01:12:17And then you showed up.
01:12:19And you were so adamant about staying and helping.
01:12:22So, I made it look like the intruder returned.
01:12:26I thought it would scare you off, Edie.
01:12:36Are you okay?
01:12:39So you weren't having a panic attack?
01:12:42No.
01:12:43So this was all a lie?
01:12:44The wheelchair?
01:12:45The intruder?
01:12:46The boarding school story?
01:12:47That one was true.
01:12:50Yeah, I hadn't really told anyone else that.
01:12:53But it was a group home.
01:12:56I'm not a boarding school.
01:13:03Avery, just...
01:13:06Just take me to wherever you have, Lynette.
01:13:09We can talk this through.
01:13:13We can't.
01:13:19Look, I know, I know that it sounds impossible right now.
01:13:21But, but we can figure this out, okay?
01:13:23We can, we can find a solution.
01:13:25We can undo this together.
01:13:27At least you never had to work for her.
01:13:30What a monster.
01:13:34How so?
01:13:35She was a classic rich bitch.
01:13:39Demanding.
01:13:41Judgmental.
01:13:43I'm sure you know the type.
01:13:45So she never let up, huh?
01:13:47She didn't even learn my name.
01:13:49And I'm nine years younger.
01:13:51She has everything, and I have nothing.
01:13:55Turns out, hard work doesn't mean squat
01:13:58if you don't have the right pedigree.
01:14:00The system is stacked against people like us, Edie.
01:14:05So what, you decided to buck the system?
01:14:07I decided to take my life back.
01:14:38After Bobby took my access keys,
01:14:39I had thought of my life.
01:15:01I had time it all out.
01:15:03I had ten minutes to finish the job.
01:15:05It would take two minutes for her to go unconscious.
01:15:08I'd deal with the rest later.
01:15:10Come on.
01:15:18Police!
01:15:19Open up!
01:15:21Police!
01:15:23Police!
01:15:25Police!
01:15:25Police!
01:15:26We're coming in!
01:15:28Stand back.
01:15:28I'm going to kick it in.
01:15:32Mrs. Husterberg?
01:15:33Yes, officer.
01:15:38Ma'am, are you all right?
01:15:40What are you doing on your knees?
01:15:42Go find the burglar.
01:15:44He went out the back.
01:15:46Follow him.
01:15:53That cop had just seen me a week before when I was timing the alarm system.
01:15:57He didn't even notice.
01:16:00Like I said, Edie, no one looks at you when you're old, especially when you're a woman.
01:16:07But if you have money, they have to pay attention.
01:16:12So I came up with the perfect plan, a victimless crime.
01:16:17Till you showed up.
01:16:20Why'd they have to send you, Edie?
01:16:22Hi.
01:16:23I figured you didn't want to murder on your hands.
01:16:25There was no time to check the rooms for anything that would tip you off to my game.
01:16:29So I kept the doors locked, just in case.
01:16:36And now, the locked doors will slow down the firefighters.
01:16:42So, that's it.
01:16:46Avery, where is Lynette now?
01:16:55Oh, relax.
01:16:56Like you haven't seen a dead body before.
01:17:04You have to burn the body.
01:17:10I can't leave anything to Optopsy.
01:17:14You killed her?
01:17:15Your job was to help her, and you killed her?
01:17:17Edie, Lynette was an heiress.
01:17:20Does she deserve to die?
01:17:22She certainly didn't deserve that money.
01:17:25Even though she thought she was better than everyone else.
01:17:29And you think you deserve it?
01:17:30I need it.
01:17:32I transferred half the funds to myself, her financial planner.
01:17:36Hopefully the rest will come through the wheel, but if not...
01:17:39Well, with half her family fortune, I can enjoy my sunset years.
01:17:46Oh, my God.
01:17:49You think you're going to get away with this?
01:17:53I know I will.
01:17:56I tried to get you out, Edie.
01:17:58I just wanted to make it look like she died in a fire.
01:18:01That's all.
01:18:01Avery, no!
01:18:02I even told First Sunrise that I, Lynette, gave you the night off so you wouldn't get
01:18:07in trouble for the accident.
01:18:09Please, please, Avery, just stop, please!
01:18:12I can't.
01:18:14I've given my whole life to other people.
01:18:17It's time for me to put myself first.
01:18:21Avery, there has to be another way!
01:18:23Please, please, stop!
01:18:25Please, Avery, this isn't you!
01:18:27Avery, please!
01:18:28Avery, stop!
01:18:31I'll miss you, Edie.
01:18:33You're a spitfire.
01:18:35Remind me of myself.
01:18:36No, no, this isn't you!
01:18:38This isn't you!
01:18:39Oh, Edie, you don't know me at all.
01:18:43I do!
01:18:44I do!
01:18:44I know you!
01:18:45I know that you're tough as nails, and that you're smarter than most, and that you have
01:18:49a wicked sense of humor!
01:18:53It doesn't matter.
01:18:54Avery, it matters!
01:18:56You matter!
01:18:58You asked me what our relationship was?
01:19:01You and I are family.
01:19:04Not by blood, sure.
01:19:06But whatever you are going through right now, if you were to show up at my door, I would
01:19:10let you in.
01:19:13Even now?
01:19:14Yes.
01:19:16Even now.
01:19:17You can stop.
01:19:18I can help.
01:19:20It's too late.
01:19:21No, Avery.
01:19:23It's just too late.
01:19:26No, Avery!
01:19:28Avery!
01:19:29Avery!
01:19:29Avery!
01:19:30Avery!
01:19:33Oh, my God.
01:20:18Oh, no, you don't.
01:20:40Oh, thank God.
01:20:41I spent three years in this house, Edie.
01:20:43I know every direction you can go.
01:20:44Avery, don't do this.
01:20:46You're going to regret it.
01:20:47I bet you a million I won't.
01:21:05I bet you a million I won't.
01:21:21Avery, just stop, okay?
01:21:24Just stop.
01:21:25Avery, enough.
01:21:26Enough.
01:21:35It's over now.
01:21:39Avery, it's over.
01:21:44We can face them together.
01:21:46I didn't want to kill you.
01:21:49I know.
01:21:50And you didn't.
01:21:52So let me help you.
01:21:53I don't.
01:21:53I don't.
01:21:54I don't.
01:22:08I don't want to kill you.
01:22:16I love you.
01:22:17I love you.
01:22:40Edie's a really nice girl.
01:22:42Well, I look forward to meeting her.
01:22:45Don't miss me.
01:22:46Kurt, what are you doing here?
01:22:48Just closing out my contract.
01:22:50Preston, please meet Edie Brown.
01:22:52She was a nurse on duty the night your cousin was found.
01:22:55And Edie, this is my client, Preston Preston Burke,
01:22:57Lynette's cousin.
01:22:58How do you know Mateo?
01:23:00The gardener?
01:23:01Yes, I saw you two together in front of the art store last morning.
01:23:04Oh, yes.
01:23:05I spotted him in town, recognized him from here.
01:23:08He told me, erroneously, that Lynette was alive.
01:23:13Well, why do you ask?
01:23:15Well, that is a long story.
01:23:20Well, I had something, uh, let me see.
01:23:23Here, it's what Lynette would have wanted had she met you.
01:23:30I'm sorry for your loss, Mr. Westerberg.
01:23:32Well, you couldn't save my cousin, but you caught her killer.
01:23:38I won't forget you, Miss Brown.
01:23:41Uh, we should finish up, uh, before the Christie's people arrive.
01:23:46Take care.
01:23:47Bye.
01:24:08Hey, you.
01:24:09Hey.
01:24:10I just met your new boss.
01:24:12Yeah.
01:24:13Yeah, he's gonna keep me on until he finds someone to buy the things.
01:24:15Oh, that's great.
01:24:16You know, he's really generous.
01:24:17You should show him your paintings.
01:24:18Funny that you should say that, because, um...
01:24:33Wow.
01:24:34Mateo.
01:24:34I was gonna give it to you, but then, you know, everything happened and I wasn't sure.
01:24:40It's beautiful.
01:24:41I'm sorry if it's weird, you know, I just...
01:24:43No, this is...
01:24:45This is a good memory.
01:24:47It's who she wanted to be, you know?
01:24:49Yeah.
01:24:50This is her dream.
01:24:52I'm still trying to figure out what was real and what wasn't.
01:24:56I really do feel like the friendship was real.
01:25:00I don't know, it's messing with my head.
01:25:03Do you want to talk about it sometime?
01:25:05I mean, uh, uh, with me?
01:25:10I want that.
01:25:10Yes.
01:25:12I'll call you.
01:25:14Perfect.
01:25:15I'll talk soon.
01:25:34From the permit office?
01:25:43It's my cafe permit.
01:25:45I'll call the crew.
01:25:47We gotta go out and celebrate.
01:25:51Killer.
01:25:55Hello.
01:25:57Hi.
01:25:58Okay.
01:26:01Ready?
01:26:02There you go.
01:26:04Good boy.
01:26:24But who won't ask him.
01:26:24Who won't ask him?
01:26:35Maybe.
