00:03Oh you're up early. I've been up all night. I hope it wasn't because you were sexting someone
00:08I know or gave birth to. The word is sexting and actually I was doing research for our outline
00:14which we only have four days left to write since you've completely blown off the first three. I
00:18haven't blown them off. I needed to buy a new car since my old one blew up. Which you may
00:22remember
00:23happened after the murder at my house. Which you may recall was after Nash Gilbert was pushed off
00:29a balcony. The point is none of that has anything to do with finding a murder for Selena and Ravenstone.
00:36Ravenstone? Selena's new assistant. One that keeps her boss grounded in forensic reality.
00:40I don't remember naming her Ravenstone. Which is exactly why you and I are getting out of here
00:45for the next four days. Because if we stay you're gonna end up taking up like mandarin or something.
00:52And wait until the last second to spit something out. That's how I do it. Now we have to figure
00:57out
00:58how we're gonna do things together. I've made hotel reservations. You've got ten minutes to pack.
01:02I'm guessing Paris. Nothing gets my mind working like a trip through the Musée d'Orsay. As much as I'd
01:06love to use my
01:07French passport, I booked us something a little more local. You have a French passport? Nine minutes to pack.
01:27No, no, no, no, no, no. Uh-uh. In summer camp, I had a terrible experience with a sack of
01:34spider eggs. I'm gonna give you my credit card and you're gonna find a place with more stars.
01:38Oh, I already used your credit card. Look at this place. It's perfect. There's nothing to do but write.
01:51Oh.
01:54Hello, ladies. Welcome to Granite Creek Chalet. You scored our two best cabins.
01:58Ah, the ones with running water and electricity. You got your own in-room crapper. Just be sure to yank
02:03the chain hard.
02:05Not too hard. Oh, I had a dime for every time a guy said that to me. Hello, the keys
02:09are under the mats.
02:10Okay. Here you go. I told you it was perfect.
02:33How much lawn does that man have? Please focus.
02:43I can see Lady Belle landing. Oh. Oh, they've got patio dining and a pool. Oh. Right first, spa later.
02:59That was our deal.
03:08Come on. I've shown you like over a dozen homicides for inspiration and none of them have wowed you.
03:13Because we need a crime that builds the relationship between Selena and Rhonda.
03:18Raven. That's what I said. We need to find something that showcases the push and pull between them.
03:22A crime where they don't see eye to eye. We don't see eye to eye, so that shouldn't be a
03:27problem.
03:28Okay. The problem is we don't really know who Raven is yet.
03:36Okay. Raven is smart. She's tough.
03:41She's been through a lot, hasn't she? Look, I'm not getting into the stuff about my mom if that's where
03:47you think this is going.
03:48It's compelling, Andy. Having a mother who not only disappears, but then erases all trace of her past.
03:55What do you mean by erases all trace of her past?
03:58Um, nothing. I was just, you know, building character. Like, riffing, it's what fiction writers do. We don't have to
04:03use any of it. Let's just get back to the murder, so...
04:05No. No, no, no, no, no. If you know something about my mom, I want you to spit it out.
04:09Fine. I asked Jack to do a little digging.
04:12You did what?
04:12Not only is there no record of Renee Walker since she disappeared, there's no record at all. No birth certificate.
04:21No nothing. It's like she never existed.
04:24I can't believe you'd intrude on my privacy like this.
04:26What privacy? You post Instagram photos of everything you eat. You tweeted about your UTI while you were giving a
04:34urine sample.
04:34Your entire life is on social media. Not this part of my life.
04:39I was just trying to help, Andy.
04:43You weren't getting anywhere by yourself and it has to be on your mind.
04:47It has to be because you bring that blanket that she made everywhere you go.
04:53How do you know my mom made that?
04:55First, it's obviously handmade because the stitches are not even.
04:58And it has a custom tag in the corner.
05:01And second, it's old because the yarn is starting to fuzz.
05:05And third, you just admitted it.
05:08I never asked you for your help.
05:10But you want to know what happened to her, don't you?
05:12Of course I do!
05:13Then what is the problem?
05:15You are the problem!
05:16Why am I the problem?
05:18Because you don't see me digging around in your private life like this.
05:20Oh, because my private life isn't private thanks to the internet. You don't hear me whining about it.
05:24Oh my god, you don't get it, do you?
05:33This is my cabin. You go.
05:36I am not going anywhere and you are not either.
05:39I need some privacy, I mean it.
05:40Fine, have it your way, but we still need a murder in it and it just needs to serve us.
05:45Character and relationship, yeah, I know. See ya.
06:05Jack?
06:07That's right.
06:08You're staying here until you can find a place.
06:11Exactly. And you're here because...
06:14It's a long story.
06:16Well...
06:19I got time.
06:22Well done.
06:23Well done.
06:27That's mine.
06:29You're welcome.
06:34So my publisher wants a new Selina St. Cloud novel, No More True Crime.
06:39So, we had to chuck everything and start over.
06:41Oh.
06:42And Andy thinks that I will concentrate better away from the distractions of my home.
06:46Good plan.
06:47I don't know about that.
06:48Oh, I do.
06:49Your life is so filled with distractions.
06:51Honestly, I have no idea how you get anything done.
06:53Sometimes I think it's a part of my process.
06:55Like, not thinking about something is the best way to think about it.
07:00The more I try to not think about something, the more I do.
07:07Something like what?
07:09Are you and Andy getting work done?
07:11No.
07:14I told her about what you found out about her mother, and now she's mad at me because I didn't
07:18respect her privacy.
07:20Oh.
07:20But she said she had a French passport, so I thought maybe the mom was born in France.
07:24I'm guessing you didn't check the international database.
07:27I did not.
07:28But you could.
07:29Mm-hmm.
07:30But see, I'm no psychologist.
07:31Oh, boy.
07:32But it occurs to me that if Andy wants you to stay out of this...
07:34I'm already on her shit list.
07:36Oh.
07:36I got nothing to lose.
07:38She really wants to know what happened to her mom.
07:40And so do you, for some reason.
07:42The question is, why?
07:44Well, like a good mystery.
07:45That's not why.
07:46Okay, fine.
07:47A shrink would say, she's the daughter I never had, or my mom never helped me.
07:52I don't know.
07:52Could be either.
07:54We're both.
07:57Hey, Dave.
07:59You starting your final walkthrough?
08:02With you here, I don't know why I bother.
08:04It's like having free armed security.
08:06See ya.
08:14A pool.
08:15A pool.
08:17A pool.
08:21A pool.

08:52Oh my God.
08:53Oh.
08:54Oh.
08:57Shit.
08:58Shit.
08:58Shit.
08:59Shit.
08:59Shit.
09:03Hey!
09:04Oh!
09:04I saw a murder!
09:07Oh God!
09:07What the hell is wrong with you?
09:09I didn't see the killer.
09:10I just saw the necktie going around the victim's neck.
09:12He was strangled to death.
09:13Hope I'm not being too forward.
09:14Where?
09:15On your thigh.
09:16What?
09:16No, where?
09:16Where did you see a murderer?
09:18Lady Bell landing, third floor up, maybe second or third window over.
09:20Also, Jack, what are you doing here?
09:21I know.
09:22I asked myself the same question.
09:23Wait, how could you see a murderer at Lady Bell landing from here?
09:26I have binoculars.
09:27You were peeping into people's windows?
09:29The point is, there's a guy dead, so we should probably hurry.
09:31Are you sure you didn't just nod off while you were typing?
09:33I wasn't dreaming.
09:35I saw a dark blue bed spread and two hideous lamps and an anephalic painting of a lighthouse.
09:40But most importantly, I saw a guy getting strangled to death with a striped tie.
09:44Okay, okay.
09:44We'll check it out.
09:45But let me handle it.
09:46Okay.
10:05Easy, Nancy Drew.
10:06Oh, morning.
10:08Yes, what time is it?
10:09Hot breakfast in a few moments.
10:11Hot scones.
10:11No, no, it's not yet morning.
10:13I'm sorry to disturb you.
10:14I'm Detective Jack Kerrigan.
10:15Oh dear, is there something wrong?
10:17Oh, we have a report of a violent incident in one of the upstairs rooms.
10:20Not another raccoon in the laundry chute.
10:22More like a homicide.
10:23Oh, thank goodness.
10:25Those raccoons are impossible to get rid of.
10:27Okay, well we need to check it out. Is that okay?
10:29Oh, certainly.
10:30But you should know, this is more of a weekend getaway spot.
10:34We don't do homicides here.
10:35It's always the first time.
10:39Okay, this has got to be the one with the second window over.
10:41Oh, it's registered to Kim Morrison.
10:44All right.
10:46Ms. Morrison.
10:50Oh, wow.
10:51Is this because I didn't pay for the minibar snacks?
10:54What? No, it's because of the-
10:55No, it's because of the corpse in your room.
10:57Did you say corpse?
10:58Oh, forget my friend.
10:59She's prone to night terrors.
11:02This is the wrong room.
11:04It's got to be the next one over.
11:06Okay.
11:06Did you happen to hear or see anything disturbing this evening?
11:09No.
11:09Did something happen?
11:10It's got to be this one.
11:11Is it safe to stay here?
11:12Look, we don't foresee any cause for concern at this point.
11:15Sorry for disturbing you, Ms. Morrison.
11:16Hey!
11:16Hey!
11:16It's this one.
11:17I was off by one window.
11:18You can't just go barging into people's rooms uninvited like that.
11:20You can't, but I can.
11:21Room 309.
11:22It's empty.
11:23They've not checked in yet.
11:25Great.
11:28This is the room.
11:29Okay, he was standing right there.
11:32Where's the body?
11:33It's got to be here somewhere.
11:36No sign of a struggle?
11:37Nothing in the bathroom?
11:38Nope.
11:39Okay.
11:40Okay, the body's gone.
11:40But I know what I saw.
11:41Check for DNA.
11:42You've got to find something.
11:43Okay, let's just be logical about this.
11:45The last thing I told you was to come up with a murder.
11:48So you fell asleep and you dreamt one up.
11:51And I'm telling you, I saw a murder.
11:55I'll call CSU and tell them we have an old body on the side.
11:57If anything happened in this room, they'll find it.
12:20You did find anything?
12:23Nothing.
12:24You didn't find anything?
12:26No evidence that a murder occurred in that room
12:29Or that that room has recently scrubbed
12:31Nothing
12:31So you both think I'm crazy
12:33No, I mean, no
12:34Of course not
12:35Look, it was late at night
12:36Could this be exhaustion?
12:38No, it wasn't
12:39I was awake, I saw him die
12:42You think I'm making this up, don't you?
12:43No, no, I believe you believe it
12:48But are you taking the poly, you know, like in the club
12:51Like, wake up, wake up, wake up
12:53It's Molly
12:55And no, I'm not
13:01It's not a bad idea
13:03If Selena and her assistant are at odds over a case where there's no body
13:07But there was a body, that's the whole point
13:09Exactly, that's exactly what Raven can say to Selena
13:13Raven has a lot she can say to Selena
13:14Oh, come on
13:16We're not getting anything done
13:17We've been at it all morning
13:19We need to do something different
13:20I'm not learning Mandarin
13:23We're going clamming
13:24What?
13:25We are going clamming
13:26What?
13:27Ew, no
13:28Yes, yes, yes
13:29Please, trust me
13:30I used to do it as a kid
13:32And when we get back
13:33I'll fix this Avangalee to die for
13:36Nobody's gonna die
13:37You're not gonna shut up about this until I agree to go, are you?
13:39No
13:45I've got everything you need, huh?
13:47Waiters
13:48Buckets
13:49I even got a laminated tie chart
13:52Clamming's the reason I bought this place
13:54Oh, well it brings back memories for me
13:56My grandpa used to eat the clams right out of the shop
13:59Oh, that's the part I'm gonna miss the most
14:01So, what?
14:02Moving to Florida?
14:03No, it's time
14:04I sold out to a hotel chain
14:06I'm looking forward to year-round sun
14:07Shuffleboard
14:08No more septic issues
14:11Have fun, huh?
14:12We will
14:13All right
14:18And then the water comes
14:20And
14:22Oh
14:22Look at that baby, huh?
14:30Got to admit that this is a lot better than arguing
14:33Oh, stop it
14:33Oh, I'm so sorry
14:34I lost my balance
14:35No, no worries
14:36I'm a little steady on my feet too
14:38It's the time
14:39Yeah
14:40Hey, are you Alison Chandler?
14:42The author of the Selina St. Todd novels
14:44Not lately
14:45Yes, I am
14:46We're here on a writer's retreat
14:48We're trying to get an outline done
14:49As you can probably tell
14:51Oh, I love Selina
14:52So keep up the great work
14:53Thank you
14:54Bye
14:56You should follow her advice
14:58And you should give this a try
15:00That's not going to happen
15:01Try right over here
15:02Whoa
15:03Whoa
15:04Whoa
15:05Whoa
15:06Oh, that's a guy I'm so strangle
15:10Oh
15:10Oh
15:11Oh, this is so going in the book
15:23The deceased is George Slate
15:25The truck and trailer registered to him
15:27Found his boat washed up about a mile north
15:29And two suitcases in the truck
15:31With clothes and toiletries
15:33This
15:35Was in his pocket
15:36Lady Bell Landing, room 309
15:39Oh my god
15:40He was there
15:40Just like I said
15:41Well, how did he end up
15:42Sleeping with the clamps?
15:44We don't know
15:44Still working on that
15:49Hey
15:50How tall was Slate?
15:51Six feet
15:52Okay, then he didn't drive this car here
15:54Whoever did was
15:55Five, five, tops
15:56And you know that because
15:57Well, look
15:58The seat's pushed all the way forward
15:59The wheel's tilted down
16:00It's all wrong for someone six foot
16:04Okay, so who drove him here
16:06And from where?
16:07I don't know who
16:08But it had to be from the hotel
16:14It's just awful
16:16I mean, Mr. Slate came here every year
16:19He loved fishing
16:20Not so surprised that he stopped on his way
16:23But you're sure that he never checked in?
16:25Yes
16:26How did he end up with a key to room 309 in his pocket?
16:28Well, he owns the place
16:30He owns the keys to all the rooms
16:31But that room was his particular favorite
16:34Oh, really?
16:35Never mentioned that before?
16:36Well, you didn't ask, did you, dear?
16:38Does anyone else have keys to the rooms?
16:40Only Mr. Slate
16:41And myself, of course
16:44What will happen now that he's gone?
16:46Do you think I'll still have my job?
16:48I really don't know, ma'am
16:49Would you put in a good word for me?
16:52With who?
16:53Mr. Slate
16:55He's dead, ma'am
16:57That's right
17:00So soft
17:07Excuse me
17:08Hello
17:10Maybe George Slate actually was here last night
17:14Not maybe
17:15He was, I saw him
17:16Hey, I don't mean to be a busybody
17:18But did you find the thing you were looking for?
17:21The corpse washed up on the clamming beach this morning
17:23Oh, no
17:24Are they going to cancel the Flea Fest?
17:26The what?
17:27Uh, Founders Flea Festival
17:28It's an antiquing thing that happens every year
17:30I never miss it
17:31I'm sorry, I couldn't help overhearing
17:34And you are?
17:35Seth Atkins
17:35I'm here for the festival, too
17:37Please tell me that it's not being canceled
17:38No worries
17:39It's still on
17:40So you two are antique hunters, huh?
17:42It's my passion
17:43For me, it's more like an addiction
17:46I bet you two are looking for one of those 1939 Founders Cove Rolltop desks
17:50They're really hard to find
17:51Guilty as charged
17:53The Holy Grail
17:53I'm sorry, did you say that someone drowned at the beach today?
17:56No one drowned
17:57They were murdered
18:00Oh
18:05Okay, hear me out
18:05Kim was the right size to have driven George's truck
18:07She's on the short side for strangling a man from behind and carrying a body
18:11Well, Seth could have strangled him and then helped her move the body
18:14They would have had to pass Wilma, but she's got the keys to everything
18:17You know, she may be sharper than she lets on
18:19Who's Seth?
18:20Seth Atkins, the guy who overheard us talking to Kim at the hotel
18:22Sorry, do you think that Kim and Seth are in on this together?
18:25Oh, they're together, they're so together
18:26How do you know that?
18:27Body language
18:28Kim and Seth were standing fewer than three feet apart
18:31Which is unusual for people who don't know each other
18:34And they subconsciously married each other's gestures
18:38Which is a dead giveaway
18:39Not only that, they're lying about why they're here
18:42There is no such thing as a Founders Cove Rolltop desks
18:46So the real question is
18:48What's really going on and why are they trying so hard to pretend they're not together?
18:52Even if all of that is true, it does not make them killers
18:55All I know is that they are hiding something
18:58Maybe if you do a little digging
19:03Are you guys supposed to be working?
19:07Work
19:12Raven sees the murder in Chapter 5
19:14No, no, no, no, no
19:16I say we don't hold back
19:18Let's drop the body in Chapter 1
19:20You hook an audience that way
19:23I love fiction
19:24Okay, the problem is
19:26Selina doesn't know Raven all that well
19:28How does she know she can trust her?
19:30How does Raven know she can trust Selina?
19:32Selina has more experience
19:34Raven has new ideas
19:35Not all of them good ideas
19:37Selina can't always be the smartest person in the room
19:40No, but she can
19:42Her name is on the cover
19:43Why aren't we getting anything done?
19:46I just typed three pages in the last five minutes
19:48It's because you've been holding down the space bar
19:53Oh
19:56Hey Dave
20:01Is he ever going to stop mowing?
20:04It's the only thing keeping me awake right now
20:06Something's got to be wrong
20:08Maybe if we just have a quick little nap
20:10Why are we both so tired?
20:12It's like we've been drunk
20:14Oh, it was a candy bar
20:16Something in the air
20:19We'd smoke gas if the stove was on
20:21Oh, oh my god
20:23Handy
20:24The mower
20:25Oh, the exhaust from the mower is carbon monoxide
20:29It's odorless
20:30Oh my god
20:32Open that door
20:38What's wrong?
20:40It's stuck
20:42Oh, shit
20:43Oh
20:44Oh
20:45Oh
20:45Oh
20:47Oh my god
20:49Allie
20:49The window's nailed shut
20:51Oh
20:53I'm sorry for what happened yesterday
20:55I really didn't need to make you upset
20:57About your mind
20:58Wait, wait
20:58Are you apologizing to me right now
21:00Because you think we're going to die?
21:01I was covering my house in case
21:03I'm sorry too
21:04I got really mad at you
21:07Allie
21:08Allie
21:11Sorry, you were falling asleep
21:15I'm not falling asleep
21:17Okay
21:18I had a sex room about Jack
21:21I wasn't falling asleep
21:22Sorry
21:23Why are you telling me that?
21:24I just want someone to know in case this is it
21:30Not today
21:39What was that?
21:39I don't know
21:41Everything okay in there?
21:44Somewhere
21:45Champ Malatch
21:57Andy
21:59Andy
22:04Oh
22:07Thanks, man
22:09Yeah
22:09Yeah
22:09You took a big risk going back in there
22:11Probably
22:13So
22:14What happened?
22:15Someone just tried to get rid of the only evidence
22:17That
22:17It's like what's killed at
22:19The hotel
22:20Guy witness
22:25So it looks like someone ran a hose from the tailback of the mower to the vent under the cabin
22:29Any prints?
22:30We'll dust the mower and let you know
22:33Yep
22:33Good
22:40This is my fault
22:42I keep that lawnmower outside
22:43I should have locked it in the shed
22:45Well, no one's ever tried to steal it before
22:47No one's blaming you, Dave
22:51So
22:52What did the MAs say about Sleight?
22:54What?
22:57What did the medical examiner say about Sleight?
22:59She confirmed he was strangled
23:00And he had severe cervical vertebrae decay
23:02At the bottom of his suitcase
23:05We found this
23:07That's the necktie
23:08That's the murder weapon
23:09That's what I thought
23:09Did you find anything out about Wilma?
23:11Wilma's husband died a few years ago
23:14From carbon monoxide poisoning
23:16That's a coincidence
23:17Right
23:18One more wrinkle
23:19Sleight was not the sole owner of Lady Val Landing
23:21There were two other investors
23:39So
23:39How's antiquing going?
23:42Kim found a Wallace Nutting hand-colored photograph today
23:45Not a Nutting
23:46Oh
23:47I am undone
23:48Wish I could be more excited
23:49But I can't help thinking about what happened on the beach
23:52Any news, detective?
23:54We identified the victim
23:55George Sleight
23:56Who?
23:57Don't pretend that you don't know George Sleight
23:59He owned the hotel
24:00And you two were his partners
24:03Silent partners
24:04Silent partners
24:06Who lied about tracking down a roll-top desk
24:08That doesn't actually exist
24:11So
24:12What's going on?
24:14It's
24:16Complicated
24:18We're both married
24:19Just not to each other
24:26This is our annual escape
24:27This is where we first met
24:28And why we keep coming back
24:29We bought a stake in the place
24:31So we'd have an excuse every year
24:32To come and check on our investment
24:34Mostly we did it
24:35So we'd always have the same room
24:36Same time
24:38No questions asked
24:39We're romantics at heart
24:42Look, I'm not proud of what we're doing
24:45But adultery isn't illegal
24:46No
24:48But murder sure is
24:49And divorce costs a lot of dough
24:51So if George threatened to reveal your dirty little secret
24:54We didn't murder anyone
24:55I feel terrible about George
24:57He was the sweetest man
24:58So you don't know anyone that would want to kill him?
25:01God, no
25:02This may sound crazy
25:03But you talk to Wilma
25:04George said he was going to leave her 25% of the place when he died
25:07Maybe she'd get tired of waiting
25:18Wilma
25:19I hear congratulations are in order
25:21On what?
25:22Thanks to George Slate
25:23You now own 25% of this inn
25:25I guess you don't have to worry about your future anymore
25:28Well, at my age, dear
25:30That really is all one worries about
25:32You can certainly understand that, dear
25:34Oh, I would, actually
25:37Because I was nearly killed by carbon monoxide poisoning
25:40It's the same way your husband died
25:43Coincidentally, Slate was killed at this hotel
25:46And his body was somehow moved
25:48And then somehow his room was cleaned within 10 minutes
25:50So, whoever did it must have had to kill both rooms
25:53It's gone
25:54They're egg rolls
25:57I'll pass
25:58Actually, I'll have
25:59Come on
26:02They did it
26:03Kim and Seth, they killed George Slate
26:05And with some help from Wilma
26:07Okay, but until I can prove how they killed George Slate
26:09I can't do anything about it
26:10So, look
26:10I think you two should head back to town
26:12There's, yeah, there's absolutely no way
26:14No, no, no, we're not going anywhere
26:15Because I knew you would say no to that
26:17I've arranged for security
26:21Great
26:22See ya
26:24I'll walk you down
26:25Thanks
26:25Well, actually
26:26You know
26:28We could meet back at my place
26:29Have a glass of wine
26:31Oh
26:34Just wine
26:36Yeah
26:36Yeah, okay
26:37Uh, yeah, yes
26:39Okay
26:39But I need an hour
26:41Just to write some notes
26:44On the carbon monoxide thing
26:46You know, for the novel
26:48And for the deadline
26:49Okay
26:50Take your time
26:51Okay
26:51Okay
26:52Okay
27:07Wow
27:07Wow
27:07Wow
27:07Wow
27:07Wow
27:07Wow
27:09Let's go.
27:47Where are you going?
27:48Getting some air.
27:50Not alone, you're not.
28:05Any work done?
28:06Some.
28:07Um, but I'll probably rewrite it all tomorrow morning.
28:11Right.
28:14There you go.
28:17You're welcome.
28:20Okay, we're looking for loose floorboard, a secret compartment, maybe a hidden room anywhere Mr.
28:27and Mrs. Death could have hidden a body.
28:29Let's do this right.
28:30I'm not used to a man bringing protection.
28:40You look very nice tonight.
28:42Oh, thank you.
28:42I mean, I just, you know, I was...
28:45Yeah.
28:49Yeah.
28:51Yep.
28:55Now what are you looking for?
28:56Just checking to see if maybe the ceiling is a little bit hollow so they can just hide a body
29:01up here.
29:02Careful.
29:03I'm working!
29:04I'm working!
29:07So, uh...
29:09Should we talk about the case?
29:11Oh, I'd rather think about it without talking about it.
29:15Hmm.
29:20Look at that.
29:23What am I looking at?
29:24Wait, wait.
29:27Look.
29:28There's a patch under this painting that's a different color than the rest of the wall.
29:32That's because the painting protected it from getting bleached by the sun.
29:34Okay, sure.
29:35But this patch, this is smaller than the actual painting hanging here.
29:43Look at this nightstand.
29:45It was also bleached by the sun, but the base of this lamp is square, not round.
29:48So there was another lamp there.
29:51I know how they did it.
29:54Look, about what happened the first time.
29:58What happened the first time?
29:59Well, I mean, it didn't happen.
30:00But it could have happened.
30:01But then you spilled the drink.
30:03I mean, maybe I spilled it.
30:03And I tried cleaning it off of you and trying to help you and wipe it off your pants.
30:08And that must have made you feel really uncomfortable.
30:10And I'm just...
30:13Look.
30:15You know what I think?
30:16I know how they did it!
30:18Oh!
30:19Oh!
30:20Oh!
30:21Incoming!
30:22Again?
30:23Well, I'm officially out of pants.
30:24They didn't move the body.
30:26What are you talking about?
30:28They switched the room.
30:28The reason there was no evidence of the murder in room 309 is because it didn't happen there.
30:32Slate was strangled in room 308, just like Andy said he was.
30:36Kim's room.
30:36The room we saw first.
30:38What fooled me was that none of the furnishings matched.
30:40You're saying they swapped everything?
30:43The phallic painting and the lamps and the bedspread with stuff from room 309?
30:48Slate's body was probably still in Kim's room when CSU was going through room 309.
30:54Exactly.
30:55So after we all left, Kim and Seth moved George's body, probably in a laundry cart, down to George's truck,
31:00which Kim drove to the boat launch and then they dumped his body in the water.
31:02When they came back to Kim's room, they scrubbed the place clean to get rid of the evidence.
31:07And Wilma probably helped them.
31:09Yep.
31:09Exactly.
31:10Case closed.
31:12Go make the arrest.
31:14I can't make the arrest with that.
31:15Not in these pants.
31:16Why not?
31:17They're all wet.
31:17No, the arrest.
31:18There's no physical evidence.
31:20Have you not been listening to anything?
31:21We've got more than enough evidence.
31:23Maybe in one of your books.
31:24Not in real life.
31:25We don't even have enough for a search warrant.
31:27So what happens now then?
31:28Now I'll try to prove they're guilty in some other way, but it's not going to happen overnight.
31:31Or ever.
31:32Right?
31:33Even though you have an actual eyewitness?
31:34We need physical evidence, and I need, to change these pants.
31:43Back to my post.
31:45Night.
31:57So, you going to tell me what happened with Jack?
31:59Nothing happened with Jack.
32:01Okay, all right.
32:03Are you kidding me?
32:04You had a sex dream about him.
32:05And now you're having drinks together?
32:08I think that you should go for it.
32:09Okay, it was a glass of wine, and you're crazy.
32:12Selina St. Cloud would go for it.
32:14Selina is a character in a book.
32:17Wait.
32:18Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
32:19Jack said that Slate had a problem with his neck even before he got strangled.
32:23One of my ex-husbands had the same thing.
32:26Cervical vertebrae decay.
32:27Okay.
32:28He used to have to travel with some special pillow.
32:30But Jack said that there was luggage with just clothing.
32:34So you think that George left his special pillow in the hotel room?
32:37Maybe this sounds crazy, and I know it's the whole life imitating our thing,
32:40but I wrote something for Selina that I think that we could use to trap these two adulterous antikers.
32:47Great.
32:48I'm in.
32:49You want to hear it so you can criticize it?
32:51No.
32:51It's time to go rogue, baby.
32:52Okay.
33:06Wilma.
33:07Oh, um, can we talk to you in private?
33:10What's that mean?
33:12Okay.
33:17What kind of pillows do you use in your hotel?
33:20Down, of course.
33:22No secret there.
33:23Six hundred and fifty fill.
33:24Not a featherless.
33:26You know, my mother used to make us down pillows.
33:30From the ducks we ate.
33:31Oh, I've never slept on something that I've ate.
33:35Oh.
33:36The thing is, Wilma, we think the two of your guests murdered George Slate,
33:39but they made a grave error that's going to put them away for good.
33:41Well, what sort of error?
33:42When they were clearing George's room of his things,
33:44they forgot that he has a very special neck pillow that he travels with.
33:47And it was in a pillowcase, so they probably didn't even know it was there.
33:51If you can find it, it proves the police need to put them away.
33:54Oh, but be careful.
33:55And call Jack Kerrigan at the sheriff's office right away.
33:59Jack, yes, sheriff.
34:01Yes.
34:01Hello.
34:02Yes.
34:05Yes.
34:07Sheriff.
34:07Jack.
34:10Hello.
34:15All of this, just to get out of a bad marriage.
34:18Frankly, I don't understand why people even get married anymore.
34:21Oh, I don't know.
34:23Love, companionship, security.
34:26Yeah, you could get all of that without entering into a culturally imposed monogamy
34:29that is so inherently suffocating that people will resort to murder to break the shackles.
34:34I call bullshit.
34:35They just can't keep their zippers zipped.
34:37I gotta pee.
34:38But you got it back here.
34:39I'll just be a minute.
34:41What are you gonna use to wipe?
34:43You don't wanna know.
34:44Oh.
34:46You're supposed to pee before a stakeout.
34:49Oh, for God's sake.
34:50Here they come.
34:52It worked.
34:53The pillow must be in the suitcase.
34:55And they're gonna ditch it in the woods.
34:57Will you hurry up?
34:59I'm coming.
35:00Oh.
35:00Geez.
35:04Super.
35:07Was Wilma with them?
35:08Wilma wasn't in on it.
35:10Lady, this is no time for an aneurysm.
35:12I figured it out when I saw Kim and Seth.
35:14And then I yelled at you to hurry.
35:16Not falling.
35:17I warned you that something was happening.
35:19The same way that somebody saw you with the binoculars and then warned Kim and Seth.
35:23That's why they switched the rooms.
35:24Okay, but who would have seen me?
35:25Well, it'd have to be Dave.
35:27He was doing his security rounds and he was on his way to your cabin.
35:30He had to have called them.
35:31The whole carbon monoxide thing, that was him too.
35:33Yes.
35:34Well, why didn't he try to save us?
35:35Because of Jack.
35:36He wanted to make sure he was ruled out as a suspect.
35:38Okay, but that doesn't explain why he'd want to kill George Slate.
35:40Dave was selling Granite Creek, remember, to some big hotel chain.
35:44My guess is that the same developer needs both properties, the Ladyville Landing and the Granite Creek cabins,
35:50to build one big resort where the deal's off.
35:52And Slate wouldn't sell, so it ruined the deal for everyone.
35:54Exactly.
35:58Yeah, aren't you a couple of smart cookies?
36:04Maybe a little too smart.
36:06Just take it easy, okay?
36:07Oh, honey, I don't think you're in any position to be calling the shots right now.
36:20Freeze!
36:23Hey, is everybody alright?
36:25Yeah.
36:26Oh, you just saved our lives.
36:35Just a quiet trip to get some writing done.
36:39Life's all about the detours.
36:41You were right.
36:43Got those in the suitcase.
36:44Yeah.
36:46Hey, just seeing how you two were doing.
36:48We're still breathing, thanks to you.
36:50This is Melissa Grant.
36:52Melissa's a park ranger.
36:53Yeah, we met clamming.
36:55Right.
36:56Yeah, I was heading into town after putting some tracking collars on some mountain lion cubs,
37:00but when I saw that dude pointing a gun at you, I just hit the gas without any thinking.
37:05Well, I'm glad you did.
37:06Yeah.
37:06Well, you might see me around.
37:08I'm going to be staying in the cove until I finish with my project.
37:10So, take care.
37:11Bye.
37:12See ya.
37:12Thanks, Melissa.
37:13Speaking of projects, I have a little more information about your mother,
37:16and I completely understand if you think it's none of my business.
37:20I live in Founders Cove, so my life is everyone's business.
37:25Okay.
37:25When I was working on trying to find your mother last week,
37:27I was not researching international databases.
37:30Allie has the hunch that maybe your mother was French.
37:32You have a French passport.
37:33That's a good guess.
37:34My mom was born in Marseille.
37:35There you go.
37:37Well, and not.
37:38The French citizens are fingerprinted when they're kids for their national identity card.
37:42Right, and your mother had not been wiped from that system, so I ran it through APHIS.
37:47I got a hit.
37:49Is she still alive?
37:51That's it three years ago.
37:52Yes.
37:54Her niece Chantelle Walker was in a Montpelier, Vermont donut shop that June.
37:58Do you know that for sure?
37:59Actually, yes.
38:00CSU had dusted that shop for prints after an armed robbery.
38:04Your mother was not there at the time, but her prints were on the front counter.
38:07A lack of degradation indicates that it was recent.
38:10That's Derek's donuts.
38:11It's right across from Chester College, where I went to school.
38:17Three years ago, I graduated in June.
38:24My mom was there.
38:36I graduated in June.
