00:00can be a dangerous business.
00:06Every ingredient you include is a risk.
00:11A daring attempt to take perfectly ordinary elements,
00:15but with the exact right combination,
00:17turn them into something totally different.
00:20No matter how many times you achieve success,
00:29each new attempt invites jeopardy.
00:36You plan, you leave nothing to chance.
00:47But inevitably, there are always surprises.
00:58Unexpected developments that keep you on your toes.
01:05In fact, they can often lead to the best revelations.
01:15A whole new recipe from one unforeseen twist.
01:23But the thrill of it, the chance of success,
01:26always brings you back for more.
01:47All right, take five.
01:53Oh, great.
01:54Yeah, here.
01:56Can you help me?
01:57Oh, you're just in time.
01:58The actors are about to take a break.
01:59Oh, how are the rehearsals going?
02:01Well, stressful, to be honest.
02:03A lot of big personalities.
02:05Dolores, darling,
02:06would it be possible for you to stay still
02:09during the second half?
02:10Oh, Victoria, dearest.
02:12Is it getting harder for you to memorize
02:14your dialogue these days?
02:16You are playing the seamstress.
02:18You honestly think she would have a necklace like that?
02:21It is part of my character's
02:22inner dialogue motivation.
02:25Tanya, may I have a word with you, please?
02:28Yes.
02:28Yeah.
02:29You're so dramatic.
02:30Oh, my.
02:31Mother, I have some exciting news for you.
02:33I hope you said yes.
02:35You do?
02:36Yes, of course.
02:37Oh, Hannah, when a man like Chad asks you out,
02:40it is customary to accept.
02:43Have I taught you nothing?
02:44Who said anything about Chad?
02:45You did.
02:46When?
02:46Just now.
02:47No.
02:49What?
02:49Mother, never mind.
02:50Start over.
02:51Guess who's coming to Lake Eden?
02:52Mm-hmm.
02:53Connie Mack.
02:55Connie Mack?
02:57The queen of the kitchen?
02:58Connie Mack?
02:59Someone from her TV show called me
03:01because they want to film an episode
03:03at the cookie jar.
03:04I guess they need a location
03:06kind of last minute.
03:07Please tell me you said yes.
03:09Yeah.
03:09Oh, just think of the publicity I'll get.
03:13Yeah.
03:14Right.
03:15Uh-huh.
03:16The producer, he told me
03:17they're going to pay me
03:17to use the bakery for a couple of days.
03:21It's too bad that Andrea's not here
03:23to negotiate a better deal for you.
03:31Oh, Hannah?
03:33Our wardrobe designer, AJ, is here today.
03:36Uh, why don't you ask him
03:38to help you find something
03:39a little bit more appropriate
03:40for when the TV show was filming, hmm?
03:46Vintage.
03:48Oh.
03:56Okay, but did the producer say
03:58that we have to do anything special,
03:59you know, to get ready for it?
04:00No, I guess they're bringing
04:01everything they need.
04:03I mean, Hannah, this is Connie Mack
04:05in our kitchen using our ovens.
04:07I know.
04:08We should be scrubbing
04:09or painting or something.
04:10I don't think you need
04:11to do anything at all
04:12because the new place looks amazing.
04:14Thank you, Norman.
04:15I agree.
04:16Yes, but this is Connie Mack
04:17we're talking about.
04:18Okay, I'll bite.
04:19Who is Connie Mack?
04:21Who is Connie Mack?
04:25Who's Connie Mack, he says.
04:27She has only had her own cookie show
04:29for at least a decade.
04:31Oh, it's been almost two decades now.
04:32Don't tell her I told you.
04:34You must be Hannah Swenson?
04:35Yes, hi.
04:36We spoke on the phone.
04:37I'm Hunt Bantry,
04:38producer of Connie's show.
04:40Oh, and thank you so much
04:41for allowing us
04:42to come film here tomorrow.
04:43Yeah, of course.
04:44Oh, wow, it's tomorrow?
04:45That's so soon.
04:46That's just Hollywood for you.
04:47Can I get you some coffee
04:49or a cookie?
04:50Yeah, sure.
04:50I'll tell you anything
04:50you have that's sugar-free.
04:51Ah, good man, good man.
04:54He's a dentist.
04:56Ah, it's strong.
04:57I got too much sugar
04:58and carbs on set.
04:59It's a hazard of the job.
05:00If you have anything gluten-free,
05:01that's even better.
05:02Oh, yeah.
05:02Yeah, no problem.
05:03Why don't you find a seat
05:04and I'll bring something over.
05:06Sounds good.
05:06Norman, how about you?
05:07I am offering a special
05:08on blueberry muffins.
05:09I would love a blueberry muffin.
05:11Perfect.
05:14So I always have a little bit
05:15of paperwork for you to sign.
05:17Thanks, again, so much
05:18for making this all work
05:19last minute.
05:19Yeah, well, I love Connie Mack.
05:21I mean, I have been watching
05:22her bake since I was in college.
05:23Well, she gets that a lot.
05:25Tomorrow I get to meet her
05:25in person.
05:27Yeah?
05:28That's okay for me to stay
05:29and watch the filming?
05:30I'll do you one better.
05:31I want you to help out.
05:33Um, what do you mean help out?
05:35Connie doesn't have time
05:36to do all the baking herself.
05:37Imagine this.
05:38You and Connie side by side.
05:40It'd be like a dream come true,
05:41am I right?
05:42Yeah, I guess it is.
05:44Don't come wrong.
05:45Connie is still the genius
05:46behind everything we do
05:47on this show.
05:47She just can't be for her once.
05:49No, that totally makes sense.
05:50Good.
05:51Good.
05:52I'm glad we could make this work.
05:53The crew will be here
05:53by 6 a.m. tomorrow.
05:55Okay.
05:55Well, here's the key.
05:56Oh, thank you.
05:57Think of anything else
05:58with the tax here.
05:59Wow.
06:00Good reaction time.
06:05Wow.
06:06That was fast.
06:07I know.
06:07This whole TV show thing
06:08seems very straightforward.
06:10I know.
06:10I can't wait to see you on TV.
06:11It's going to be so great.
06:12But it's not me.
06:13It'll just be the cookie jar
06:14that's on TV, you know?
06:15But still, though,
06:15that's crazy.
06:16I know.
06:16It is pretty cool.
06:17Hi, Chad.
06:18Hey, Hannah.
06:19Norman, how you doing?
06:20Hey, I'm well.
06:21How are you?
06:21Good.
06:22Can I recommend
06:22the blueberry muffins?
06:23They're amazing.
06:24Oh, he doesn't eat the beans.
06:25Sounds great, actually.
06:27Well, not for me.
06:28For the employees
06:29at the office fair,
06:30you get a dozen,
06:31reward them for all their hard work
06:32and overtime during this trial.
06:34Oh, that's a good idea.
06:35Blueberry muffins
06:36are guaranteed
06:36to put a spring in your stick.
06:38Have to take your word for it.
06:41Hannah, how long
06:42are you going to be closed for?
06:43Oh, Hunt said that
06:44it might be a couple of days.
06:46You're closed in the bakery?
06:47There's a TV show
06:48that's going to be filming here
06:49starting tomorrow.
06:50What kind of show?
06:51It's like a cooking show
06:52or something?
06:53It is not just a cooking show.
06:55It is a Connie Mack show
06:56starring Connie Mack.
06:58Okay.
06:58She's inspired generations
06:59of cooks and bakers.
07:01I have several of her books.
07:02Oh, we're going to need them,
07:03by the way.
07:04For what?
07:05Well, we're actually
07:06going to get to bake
07:07some of the goodies
07:07that are going to be on the show.
07:09I mean, I guess Connie Mack
07:10doesn't do that so much anymore
07:11because she's busy
07:12doing showbiz stuff.
07:14Anyway, here's a cup of coffee
07:16on the house.
07:16An apology for the bakery
07:18being closed the rest of the week.
07:19Oh, that's very sweet.
07:20Thank you so much.
07:21Very sweet.
07:23All right.
07:24It's good to see you.
07:25Bye.
07:28Wow, Hollywood.
07:29I know.
07:30It's going to be great, right?
07:31But I have a kind of surprise.
07:33Oh, sorry.
07:33I'm not in line.
07:34Blueberry muffins?
07:37Thanks for the muffins.
07:38Yeah, you're welcome.
07:45Really caused quite a commotion
07:46bringing in these muffins.
07:47Yeah.
07:48I'm sure I'll never hear
07:48the end of it.
07:50I saw Phil and Lloyd Chassett case.
07:51Not all of it,
07:52but most of it.
07:54Never have enough time
07:54to prepare for trial,
07:55but when Judge Renfrew says
07:57we go on Monday,
07:58we go on Monday.
08:00We've got this guy.
08:01It's open and shut.
08:02He finally got sloppy
08:02and left his DNA
08:03at the burglary.
08:04I'm not trying to charge him
08:05with one burglary.
08:06I'm trying to prove
08:06that he did all 13.
08:08He's been running his operation
08:09in this county for years.
08:10It's the same scam.
08:11He busts out a window
08:12and then disappears.
08:13His MO and we got
08:15his cell phone location ping
08:16timed all of them.
08:17We also have a witness
08:19that says they saw him
08:20trying to fence his jewelry,
08:21but that's not enough.
08:22So don't let up.
08:24Get out there,
08:24chase down these leads
08:25and find me something else
08:26to tie Chassett
08:27to these break-ins.
08:28I'm on it.
08:38No, that's fine.
08:39I'll call back
08:39during regular Christmas hours.
08:41Hey, Lonnie.
08:42Michelle sent me
08:43with a care package.
08:44Coffee and a blueberry muffin.
08:51I feel horrible
08:52for canceling on Michelle.
08:53I've been running down leads
08:55for this Chassett case.
08:56Oh, yeah.
08:56The cat burglar, right?
08:57Lloyd, Chassett,
08:58my mother uses his name
08:59as a curse word.
09:00That's the one.
09:01He stalks women,
09:03waits for them to go out of town,
09:04and then breaks in
09:04and steals their best jewels.
09:06Yeah.
09:06No, I've heard all about him.
09:07Well, you know my mother.
09:08She cherishes her reputation
09:10as having some of the finest jewelry
09:11in Lake Eden.
09:13She's always terrified
09:14that he was going to come for hers.
09:15Well, she doesn't have
09:16to worry anymore.
09:17Chad has enough evidence
09:18to put this guy away
09:19for 20 years,
09:20but it's not enough.
09:21He wants more.
09:23Well, the prosecution
09:24has to convince 12 people
09:25that he's guilty.
09:26The defense only has to convince
09:28one that he isn't.
09:30You're starting to sound
09:31a lot like Chad.
09:34Yes, I'm here.
09:39Oh.
09:50Chad.
09:52I thought I'd miss you.
09:54No, I saw your car.
09:55I thought I would wait,
09:57say hi.
09:58Hi.
09:59Hi.
10:01So you're done
10:02with work for the night?
10:03No, I gotta go to Minneapolis
10:05and talk to this cell phone expert.
10:06Oh, right, for your big trial.
10:08Alani was telling me about it.
10:09Hmm.
10:10Yeah, I'm sure he's not
10:10too happy with me right now.
10:12Not at all.
10:12He's not afraid of hard work.
10:14You need to get a conviction.
10:15I totally get it.
10:16Yeah, I need to connect the dots
10:17on all 13 of these burglaries
10:18if the jury only convicts
10:19on one and not all 13 felonies.
10:21Makes a big difference
10:22with sentencing.
10:24Exactly.
10:25I know my mother
10:26will rest easier at night.
10:28And so will I.
10:31Right.
10:32Um, okay, so...
10:35Hey, what's your schedule
10:37like next week?
10:39Oh, well,
10:40I usually close the bakery
10:42around 6 p.m.,
10:44so I'm free after that.
10:45During the daytime.
10:48Oh, right.
10:49During the day.
10:50Court's at 9 a.m.
10:51Opening statement
10:52on the chastity trial
10:53that you might want to come.
10:54Yeah.
10:55Watch you in court?
10:56I didn't even know
10:57that was a thing.
10:58Yeah, it's in the 6th Amendment.
11:00Right.
11:01We haven't known each other
11:02that long, but, uh...
11:05Something tells me
11:05you really like court.
11:08Sounds great.
11:10Talk to you soon.
11:13Bye.
11:22Sorry.

12:05Hi.
12:07Um, I'm happy to pitch in.
12:09Just tell me what to do.
12:11Great.

12:14Oh, that's so cool.
12:16These are the recipes
12:17for today's episode,
12:18so take a look at that.
12:19I need to get this
12:20no-bake blueberry cheesecake

12:22Mmm.
12:23Is that the only freezer
12:24you have?
12:25Yeah.
12:25Sorry.
12:26You can move anything around
12:28and make space.
12:29Great.
12:30Yeah, okay.
12:31That looks spectacular.
12:34I'm sure you can make
12:35one better than that.
12:38And you still wouldn't eat it, right?
12:39Mmm.
12:40Probably not.
12:41Do you want to stay
12:42and watch the filming?
12:43I wish I could.
12:43It all looks very exciting,
12:45but I have to get back
12:45to the office.
12:46Okay.
12:47Take care.
12:48See ya.
12:53Oh.
12:58Excuse me.
12:59Hi.
12:59Sorry.
13:00Uh, but we noticed
13:02that, um,
13:02something was missing
13:03in this recipe.
13:05Oh, yeah?
13:06Yeah, yeah.
13:06We've made chocolate
13:07mashed potato cake before.
13:08Oh, yeah.
13:08A bunch of times.
13:09We love it.
13:10We love it.
13:10Uh, but you know
13:11how you're supposed
13:12to prepare the potatoes
13:13separately?
13:14Can you straighten them,
13:14mash them,
13:15then blend them back in?
13:16Yeah, of course.
13:18It doesn't list that step
13:20in this recipe.
13:21Huh.
13:22Good catch.
13:23Thanks.
13:23I'll have somebody fix this.
13:24Have you seen her?
13:25Not yet.
13:26Who?
13:28Oh, nothing.
13:29Nothing to worry about.
13:30Just want everything
13:30ready when Connie arrives.
13:32Right.
13:32I noticed on the schedule
13:33it said she was supposed
13:34to be here at 7 a.m.
13:35Oh, no, no.
13:36Don't worry about that.
13:37That's, uh,
13:37she's on her way.
13:38It's just for the network.
13:39She'll be here in time.
13:41Have a taste of this.
13:42Give her a shot.
13:43Mm-hmm.
13:45Mm-hmm.
13:46Definitely a winner.
13:47Putting it in the menu.
13:48Mm-hmm.
13:49All right.
13:50Can't have any food allergies
13:51with this, Joan?
13:52All right.
13:54Oh, Connie.
13:57Mother.
13:57Um, mother,

14:00closed today.
14:02Delora Swenson.
14:04I'm in the business, too.
14:06Actor.
14:09Uh, I think I'll just sit over
14:11by the monitors
14:12in Video Village.
14:15Carry on.
14:16I'm so sorry.
14:18That's my mother.
14:18Is it okay if she stays
14:19and watches?
14:20It's fine.
14:21I like her.
14:22I have a couple scripts
14:23to pitch later, too.
14:24All right.
14:29Connie.
14:30She's here.
14:32Shall we begin?
14:33We're ready for you.
14:35Oh, no, boy.
14:37Okay, thank you.
14:39Okay, Connie.
14:39Let's just get your hands.
14:40Oh, she's so standing.
14:41Here she is.
14:43Okay, so...
14:43Well?
14:44Why are we standing here?
14:46Show her her work.
14:47Please.
14:48Connie.
14:49Connie.
14:49Smile.
14:51Smile.
14:52Mother.
14:52Can you get her flashcards, please?
14:53Uh, that is Hannah's mother.
14:56Connie, here's the list of food,
14:57ingredients and recipes
14:59for the first act.
15:00Oh, darling,
15:01you always come through.
15:02You're wonderful.
15:03Final touches,
15:04final looks, everyone.
15:05Quiet on the set, please!
15:07Connie?
15:08Mm-hmm?
15:09Yeah, we're on in five.
15:10Okay.
15:10Four.
15:12Three.
15:13It's all on here, yes?
15:15One.
15:17One.
15:19One.
15:29Hello, America.
15:30Welcome to another day in Connie's kitchen.
15:33Today, I am so excited to be coming to you live
15:35from the adorable and delicious
15:38cookie jar bakery in Lake Eden, Minnesota.
15:42Today, we have a couple of fantastic recipes
15:46to share with you.
15:46We are making a Minnesota favorite
15:50chocolate mashed potato cake.
15:53I know.
15:54I heard y'all flinch.
15:55I did.
15:57But you are going to love it.
15:59Just trust me on this one.
16:03It's incredible.
16:04Um, excuse me.
16:06I hate to interrupt.
16:07But Connie, uh, you were whipping together
16:10the ingredients for the red velvet cake?
16:12Hannah, maybe you know I could just discuss this over.
16:14Stop.
16:15Wait, I'm sorry.
16:16What?
16:17What were you saying?
16:18Please go on.
16:20Oh, the egg whites.
16:21Uh-huh.
16:22You know, they're delicate.
16:25So, they're meant to be, um, folded in, not whipped.
16:32Oh, my.
16:35We have an expert here.
16:39Thank you for telling me how to do my own show.
16:46Hannah.
16:46Hannah.
16:47Uh, you're welcome.
16:56So, for the filling, you're going to whisk
16:58your eggs together, and you're going to put in some crema fresh.
17:01Now, everything has to do with quality.
17:04You can source your ingredients locally.
17:07You will always find winning ingredients.
17:12Well, after all that hard work, I bet you're excited to see just how good and delicious this pie is
17:18going to look.
17:19We have the most amazing ingredients locally sourced.
17:24Now, this is what I call a delicious-looking blueberry pie.
17:41And we'll be back after this quick commercial break.
17:49Thanks for meeting me here.
17:50I just wanted to bring up about...
17:52Ah, and you guessed.
17:53Hi, Hannah.
17:54Can I grab you anything?
17:55Oh, no, thanks.
17:56No, no, no.
17:56Let me buy you dinner.
17:57I'm so sorry about what happened today.
17:59Hannah and Connie just assumed that you would catch the pipe.
18:01Right, no, I'm sure...
18:02I actually already have dinner plans.
18:03Thank you, though.
18:05I could have used a little heads-up about how everything works.
18:09Well, you're right.
18:10Definitely need to work on that for next time.
18:13It does seem like your team, the crew, all work together very well.
18:17And by tomorrow, you'll have it all down, too?
18:20But, well, Connie...
18:22I could tell she doesn't know anything about baby.
18:26Wait, wait a minute.
18:26Does everybody know that the show is...
18:30Peace?
18:32By everyone, you mean the crew?
18:37No.
18:38No one knows.
18:40And I hope you'll help me keep it that way.
18:42Oh, yeah.
18:43I won't say anything.
18:45There's a system.
18:46My mentor, Buddy, was a brilliant chef.
18:49But he chose Connie to present his work on camera because he felt having a woman host would create a
18:55better connection with a female audience.
18:57Even though she doesn't know anything about cooking.
18:59You didn't have that on-screen magic.
19:02Connie does.
19:03So she just always shows up late, so it's an excuse for everyone else to prepare the food.
19:07Never meet your heroes.
19:16Um, so, anyway, yeah, it felt like I was part of a magician show, or maybe a mind show, or
19:21both.
19:22Because I had to be quiet the entire time while Connie was hosting the show.
19:26But meanwhile, I'd run around getting everything done.
19:29Oh, it was just so exciting to watch.
19:31Now, she is such a professional.
19:34Wearing her signature necklace.
19:36Girls, that is true grace under pressure.
19:40Oh, everyone was feeling the pressure.
19:42Oh, why was she so late, though?
19:44Didn't you say she arrived, like, right before it started?
19:45Maybe she was having a bad hair day.
19:47Oh, could be.
19:48I got the sense that she always cuts it pretty close.
19:51But the producer, Hunt, and Evan, who does the food styling, they had everything under control.
19:57Oh, Leanna, listen to you.
19:59Honey, you sound just like an old Hollywood pro already.
20:02I'm so proud.
20:04Sorry, I gotta get going.
20:05Oh, are you still working on Chad's case?
20:07I've got a lead on who Chastity might have been selling the stolen jewels to.
20:10Uh-huh.
20:11Follow the money, is what I always say.
20:14I will keep that in mind.
20:16All right, I'm gonna get back to the station.
20:17Bye.
20:19So cute.
20:20See you later.
20:20Hey, do you think, uh, I could come by tomorrow and watch for a bit?
20:24Oh, yeah.
20:25Yeah, I don't know why not.
20:27You can have a chair right next to me.
20:28I will make sure it helps.
20:31My mother has a hookup.
20:32Okay.
20:36Good morning, everyone.
20:42Oh, why is the door locked?
20:45So sorry that Hunt didn't let you in.
20:47I gave him a key to the bakery, but maybe he's just running a little bit late.
20:55You better stay there.
20:57Hunt.
20:59What?
21:01Hunt.
21:02Hunt.
21:05Wait outside.
21:06I'm calling the sheriff.
21:07Uh, hey, guys.
21:08What's up?
21:09Send an ambulance to the cookie jar.
21:11And the sheriff.
21:12I think a man is dead.
21:21What time did you arrive at the cookie jar this morning?
21:23Crew call time is 6 a.m.
21:25And you're on time?
21:27I'm always on time.
21:29What was your relationship like with Mr. Batry?
21:32I, he was my boss.
21:34You understand that this can be a difficult time, Mr. Sinclair?
21:38Hi.
21:39Hey.
21:40It must have been shocking.
21:43He was just huddled in the corner.
21:45Lonnie brought everybody here to take their statement?
21:47Yeah, he wanted to start with people who are new to town first.
21:49Well, that's good thinking.
21:50You know, I saw the headline about the Chastley trial coming up.
21:53I hope this investigation doesn't interfere with that.
21:56Nah, that'll be good.
21:57We'll be in touch.
21:58Yeah.
21:59Sure.
22:03So, any early indications as to the cost of death?
22:06As far as I know, the Emmy's going to declare it natural.
22:09Hunt wasn't even 35 years old.
22:11He seemed pretty healthy.
22:12Well, I'm sure Lonnie will investigate this as a criminal matter until we can confirm otherwise.
22:16Exactly.
22:17So, until further notice, Hannah, the cookie jar will have remained closed.
22:20What?
22:21Until we can prove otherwise, we have to treat the bakery like a crime scene.
22:25Stop your statement.
22:28I'm sure he'll wrap this up soon.
22:30Yes.
22:31Hey.
22:32Good luck.
22:37And they don't have any idea how he died?
22:39Not yet.
22:40I mean, there were no obvious signs, no injuries.
22:43There was a little blood, but nothing major.
22:46Oh.
22:48Well, it is uncommon for a young man to just die like that, but it's not impossible, right?
22:52I mean, heart attack, maybe?
22:54Oh, you know what else?
22:56There was signs of a struggle.
22:58Some of the chairs were knocked over.
22:59His papers were everywhere.
23:01His laptop on the floor.
23:02Well, that changes everything, right?
23:04What if he had any enemies?
23:06I don't know.
23:07He seemed pretty well-liked.
23:10Except.
23:13What?
23:15Whatever your instincts are telling you, Hannah, I think you should follow them.
23:19I worked mostly with this guy, Evan.
23:21He's the food stylist.
23:24Oh, a chef, huh?
23:25Yeah, he was a trained chef, but now he makes food for the Connie Mack show.
23:29And I got the feeling he didn't like Hunt very much.
23:33Okay, so here's a guy who's a chef, and he gets forced behind the scenes.
23:39That could build resentment, maybe, right?
23:41Yeah.
23:41Right?
23:42Right.
23:43Hey, what about Connie Mack herself?
23:45How do you feel about her?
23:47You never told me.
23:48You know me too well.
23:50I guess I should just say she's not at all what I expected.
23:55I hate to say it, but she does have a motive to silence Hunt.
24:03Where are we with tracking down Chasley's stents?
24:06The pawn shop owner's given me several leads that I'm working on.
24:08And we need to talk about the suspicious death of the cookie jar.
24:11Sheriff's Department in Los Angeles are still looking for Hunt Bantry's wife.
24:15Ainsley Bantry.
24:15Wait, hold on.
24:16They still haven't notified her about her husband's death?
24:18They can't find her.
24:19The deputies have been to their home in Hollywood and have left messages on their known numbers.
24:23Haven't heard back.
24:24This show gets a lot of press.
24:26Between the social media and the gossip sites, they're going to pick up on this story quick.
24:29There's too many people to keep the choir for long.
24:31Agreed.
24:32They need to find her.
24:33And we need a toxicology report and an autopsy to minimize speculation.
24:37I'll check in with you, Emmy.
24:39After I follow up about the stolen jewelry by her.
24:41Okay.
24:42We go to trial on Monday.
24:43I want to know if I can include this in my opening statement.
24:45I'm on it.
24:54Hey, Chad.
24:55Oh, I know you're busy.
24:58Oh, not at all.
24:59I'd be happy to take a break.
25:01Sometimes I just get tunnel vision.
25:03I need to take a step back.
25:05I can imagine.
25:06This looks like when I was writing term papers in college.
25:08Yeah, that's what it feels like.
25:10I got a lot of facts that I want to present in my opening statement.
25:12I just don't know what order, how much detail.
25:15How does the jury remember everything you say?
25:18Do they take notes?
25:19That's a very good question.
25:21Some of them do.
25:21Most of them don't.
25:23And if I feel like I'm losing them when I'm making my statement, I just kind of switch
25:26it up.
25:27That's a lot to think about.
25:29Yeah.
25:30You will get to see action on Monday.
25:32Oh, I'm really looking forward to it.
25:33Yeah, me too.
25:35When brings you by?
25:36Have a seat.
25:37Oh, thank you.
25:39Yeah, I realized that I never told you where I saw the headline about the Chasley trial.
25:46It was on Hunt's laptop.
25:48He was reading about the trial?
25:49His laptop was open to the front page of the Lake Eden Journal, and I saw the headline
25:53about the trial when I found him.
25:55I just wanted to talk to you about it because it felt so odd.
25:59I mean, why was Hunt reading that particular article?
26:02Yeah, it does feel odd.
26:04Make sure you get in the file, though.
26:05Otherwise, I can't use it in court.
26:07If there even was a crime, right?
26:09We don't even know what the cause of death was.
26:12That's true.
26:13Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself.
26:14No, no, no, no.
26:15These are the things that help solve the case.
26:19I wouldn't be surprised if you were the one that figures this all out, though.
26:29Where is she?
26:30I got some pics of them coming out of Kane's shop.
26:32What figure do you want to know?
26:33You've always been my favorite sister.
26:35Oh, I know.
26:36All right, let's get closer.
26:37Okay.
26:39Just to confirm this, this is the woman that dropped a pie on you, right?
26:42Yeah, she's not very nice.
26:44Great.
26:44Unfortunately.
26:46Hello, Connie, Louise.
26:47Hi, this is my sister, Michelle.
26:50Hi.
26:51Hello, both of you.
26:54Hannah, you know, you really are such a dear.
26:57Yeah, and Michelle, is it?
27:00Yeah.
27:00It must be so nice to have a sister like Hannah.
27:04I bet you never run out of delicious cookies.
27:07No, I guess I don't.
27:09It's very devastating what's happened.
27:11It is.
27:11It must be so difficult for you.
27:13Hunt loved working with you.
27:15He raved about it.
27:16He said you taught him so much about business.
27:18Oh, it really is such a tragedy.
27:21He had just gotten the hang of how I like to do things.
27:24And he was so young.
27:26Do you know his wife, Will?
27:28We have reached out several times to offer our condolences.
27:31Oh, but she hasn't picked up any of Connie's calls.
27:33She was never very friendly.
27:34Maybe she just can't right now.
27:36I mean, that is completely understandable.
27:38Completely.
27:39Of course.
27:40Well, if there's anything I can do to make your stay in Lake Eden more comfortable, please let me know.
27:44Hannah, that's so sweet of you.
27:45If I can think of anything at all, I'll let you know.
27:51Oh.
27:54Oh, please.
27:56You know I like her.
27:58Figures.
27:59She just has a good energy about her.
28:03You know, she kept doing that.
28:06She kept touching her jaw.
28:08But what does it mean?
28:09I don't know, but she wasn't doing that the first day.
28:12Oh, you're right.
28:13She didn't do this while she was filming.
28:16It's almost like it hurts her.
28:20Do you think she could overpower Hunt in a struggle?
28:23No.
28:25With the right incentive, anything's possible.
28:40I'm sorry, Hannah, but you can't have it back yet.
28:42Why not?
28:43Because it's a crime scene.
28:44What?
28:44But is it?
28:46Officially?
28:46The Emmy hasn't filed the report yet, but yes, it is being deemed a homicide.
28:49So the bakery is still off limits.
28:58I don't know what I'm going to do.
28:59I'm running out of cookies.
29:00You can break at home, right?
29:02That's not ideal.
29:02Yeah, I know.
29:03I know.
29:03I just don't have all...
29:04That's Evan.
29:05Um, yeah, Evan.
29:08Um, he's right there at that table.
29:10Okay.
29:10You just stay here.
29:11I'm going to go see if I can see what he's doing.
29:12Okay.
29:13Okay.
29:14Okay.
29:15Okay.
29:17Okay.
29:17Okay.
29:18Okay.
29:19Okay.
29:20Okay.
29:20Okay.
29:21Okay.
29:23Okay.
29:23Okay.
29:25Okay.
29:26Okay.
29:26Okay.
29:37Louise.
29:38Hello.
29:38Hi, Hannah.
29:39Are you leaving town?
29:41Uh, no, of course not.
29:43Connie's made the difficult decision that the show must go on.
29:46She's doing what's best for her crew.
29:47Well, my mother's in the theater, so I understand.
29:50Oh.
29:52Oh, you met her.
29:53She, um, she came to the taping of the TV show.
29:56Red dress, diamond necklace.
29:58Yes, yeah, I remember her.
30:00So is Connie coming down soon?
30:02No, no, she doesn't stay here.
30:04I'm actually just on my way to her right now.
30:06Hello?
30:07Hello?
30:07Oh.
30:08I...
30:08Okay.
30:11Hey.
30:13Who's that?
30:14Oh, that's Louise.
30:15She does the costumes or whatever they call it.
30:18Okay.
30:19Hi there.
30:20Hey.
30:20Hello.
30:21How are you?
30:21And do you have a reservation?
30:23We don't, actually.
30:24Uh, do you have any vacancies?
30:26Sorry, we are completely booked for tonight.
30:28No!
30:29I heard the TV crew was staying here.
30:32Yeah, we saw the...
30:34Ooh, we're not allowed to share information about our guests.
30:37Oh, right.
30:38Of course not.
30:38That totally makes sense.
30:39I mean, privacy and all that, yeah.
30:41But I did hear that your staff is working really hard,
30:45so I brought you some cookies from my bakery for everyone.
30:48Multiple choice bar cookies.
30:50These ones have walnut,
30:51and then this is peanut butter with marshmallow.
30:54They're so good.
30:56These look delicious.
30:57Oh, they are.
30:58Trust me, you should try the triple toasted coconut surprise.
31:01They are amazing.
31:03Thank you, but I still can't get you a room.
31:07Your room is just completely sold out.
31:09Oh, of course.
31:11But I've seen you before.
31:12Uh, do you work in the restaurant?
31:14Because I was there the other night with...
31:17The dead guy.
31:18He sure has blocked off his room under investigation.
31:22Did they really?
31:22Wow.
31:24So, do you usually work in the restaurant?
31:27I cover shifts sometimes.
31:29Right, that must be frustrating.
31:30I mean, so much going on,
31:32and then someone doesn't show up for work,
31:33and you have to cover their shift?
31:34What is with people?
31:35I mean, they booked the rooms last minute.
31:38It's been crazy trying to get extra staff to come in.
31:40If I knew about it, even last week,
31:42I could have rearranged schedules.
31:44Yeah, make arrangements for it, sure.
31:46That's it.
31:46There he goes.
31:48How's that peanut butter?
31:50Yeah.
31:53Let me eat and burn in.
31:54How may I help you?
31:57It's crazy.
31:58Yeah.
31:59So, isn't it just me?
32:00It doesn't seem like a lot of extra work
32:02to bring everyone in last minute.
32:03You didn't think they'd make travel arrangements
32:04like a long time ago.
32:05Then why would they come to Lake Dayton last minute?
32:11Oh, we don't know much yet, do we?
32:14It's a bit like particle theory.
32:17What?
32:18You know, minuscule particles in random motion.
32:22No, we just have to wait and see how they interact.
32:25Right.
32:26Okay.
32:29Who was he closest to?
32:31Well, he was close to Connie on the show,
32:35and he was married.
32:37Wait, he was married?
32:39Mm-hmm.
32:41Have you met her yet?
32:42What was your first impression?
32:43No, I didn't meet her.
32:44She didn't come to the show.
32:45In fact, I don't even think she came to Lake Eden.
32:47Now, that is an unexpected particle.
32:51Mother, I am not following your physics analogy here.
32:55It is very odd, Hannah,
32:57that the widow did not come to town
32:58to collect the body.
33:01You're right.
33:02That is odd.
33:03What a great alibi.
33:05Sneak into town,
33:06murder your husband,
33:08disappear again.
33:10Right.
33:11We don't even know if she has a motive, though.
33:14Wives always have a motive.
33:21The sheriff's office in Los Angeles
33:23hasn't gotten back to me,
33:24and they still haven't made the death notification
33:26to his wife yet.
33:27She still doesn't know?
33:29No.
33:29We're trying to keep it out of the media today,
33:31but not sure how long that'll last.
33:33We'll do whatever you got to do,
33:34because she cannot read about her husband's death online.
33:36Patrick's death is officially a homicide.
33:39Cause of death?
33:39The ME won't come right on set
33:41until the toxicology report
33:42and blood tests come back,
33:43but I'm just pretty sure it's poison.
33:45Hmm.
33:46Well, if it is poisoning,
33:47he could have been poisoned hours before his death.
33:49You think Hunt was poisoned?
33:52We don't have an official statement yet,
33:54Miss Swenson.
33:56As a professional chef,
33:57what do you know about poisoning?
34:00Well, anything can be poisonous
34:01if you're allergic,
34:02but Hunt told me specifically
34:04that he wasn't allergic to anything.
34:06Did you put that in your statement?
34:07No.
34:08I mean, I just thought of it now.
34:10I'll add it.
34:10Thank you, Hannah.
34:11Also, Hunt had a job
34:13where he ate a lot of food
34:14prepared by other people.
34:15I mean, when they were filming,
34:17people would just walk up to him,
34:18hand him a plate of food,
34:18and he would try it.
34:21What else?
34:22Do you know what kind of poison was used?
34:24What brings you to the station, Miss Swenson?
34:27Oh.
34:28I just came to find out
34:30when I get my bakery back.
34:33We've had to send in the forensics team
34:35for another sweep.
34:36I'm sorry, Hannah,
34:37but I don't have an exact timeline
34:38for you right now.
34:39But it is soon, though, right, Eileen?
34:42Yes.
34:43Of course.
34:46Got it.
34:56I got paperwork.
35:00Hey, Hannah.
35:02Hannah, hold up one sec, okay?
35:04Listen, don't worry about Eileen.
35:05He's going through this divorce stuff.
35:08Okay?
35:10I know this is frustrating.
35:11No, it's okay.
35:12I understand.
35:13Well, you can understand.
35:14I'd still be frustrated.
35:16True.
35:17We're going to get you
35:18to the bakery back
35:18as soon as possible.
35:20Thanks.
35:20Yeah.
35:21I saw Connie Mack in town today.
35:23She kept touching her jaw.
35:24She kept touching her jaw like it hurt.
35:26Do you think that mess had to do with a fight?
35:29Hmm.
35:29Did you see any bruising?
35:31No, but she could have covered it with makeup.
35:34Hmm, maybe.
35:35Yeah.
35:36Maybe the poison didn't happen at the bakery.
35:38Sometimes it takes hours
35:39to see the effects of poison.
35:41Well, sure.
35:41But then what was the mess?
35:44I don't know.
35:45Didn't look like a fight to me, though.
35:47Another explanation
35:48could be the severe side effects of poisoning.
35:50You've got dizziness
35:52and shortness of breath,
35:53sharp pain.
35:54It's terrible to even think about.
35:56I know.
35:57We're going to find out
35:58who did this.
36:08Well, certainly there are a lot
36:10of prescription-grade poisons
36:11we've studied in med school.
36:13Right.
36:13Like lead, mercury.
36:16Mm-hmm.
36:16What else?
36:17Well, did you know
36:18and the freeze is poisonous?
36:19A small amount can do it.
36:21Or that.
36:22Based on what we saw
36:24during the Connie Mack show,
36:25can you imagine Connie Mack
36:26knowing how to poison
36:27Hunt's banana cream pie?
36:29Hmm.
36:31What do you mean?
36:33The truth is,
36:34Connie Mack doesn't know
36:35anything about cooking.
36:36She's a fraud, mother.
36:38I knew it.
36:40You did?
36:41Of course.
36:42I can smell it a mile away.
36:44I knew there was something off
36:45about that woman
36:46from the beginning.
36:48I knew it, too.
36:48He was protecting her secret.
36:50And that food stylist, Evan,
36:52I mean, he had to know.
36:53Okay, why try to kill your producer
36:55if he's the one
36:55protecting your secret?
36:56Well, maybe he was
36:58blackmailing her.
36:59Oh.
37:00That's an interesting theory.
37:02Remember,
37:02poison has always been
37:04a woman's weapon.
37:06Is that even still a thing?
37:08Mm-hmm.
37:09Okay, but if Connie Mack
37:10really doesn't know how to cook,
37:11I think poison would be
37:12a risky choice.
37:14Right?
37:14It's just like dentistry.
37:15That's all about where and when.
37:17Hold on.
37:19Absolute point,
37:20but let's march on.
37:22Okay.
37:22Any news on the wife's whereabouts?
37:24No, Lonnie hasn't given me an update,
37:26but I do know
37:27that the sheriff's department
37:28in Hollywood
37:29was having trouble
37:29fining her
37:30to give notice
37:31about Hunt's death.
37:32Well, that's very suspicious.
37:34Yeah, we actually went
37:35to the Lake Eden Garden Inn,
37:37and they had just booked
37:37all the rooms
37:38for the crew on Sunday.
37:39That's right.
37:40That's the same day
37:41that Hunt called me
37:41about filming
37:42at the cookie jar.
37:43Talk about spur of the moment.
37:44I thought they had a location
37:46that fell through.
37:47Yeah.
37:47That last-minute travel,
37:49booking that,
37:49very expensive.
37:50Yeah, and why Lake Eden?
37:52You know that Hunt
37:53was reading
37:54the Lake Eden Journal
37:55when he died?
37:57How'd you know that?
37:58I saw it on his laptop
37:59when I found him.
38:00It was an article
38:00from the Lake Eden Journal
38:02about Chad's trial.
38:03Okay, wait.
38:04Chastly trial date announced.
38:06Is this the article
38:07you're talking about?
38:08Everyone's following that case,
38:10that ghastly man.
38:10I lived in terror
38:12that he would come
38:12after my beloved bubbles.
38:14Don't you worry, Mother.
38:15Chad's going to see to it
38:16that he is behind bars
38:17for a long time.
38:18I know.
38:19Now we just have to find out
38:20who killed Hunt.
38:21Was it his wife
38:23or his star?
38:25I mean, I wouldn't rule out
38:26the professional chef.
38:27That's the person
38:28with the skill
38:28to pull something like this off.
38:30Okay, team.
38:34We can't just wish
38:36or hope.
38:37We're gonna have to work
38:38for this one.
38:42Churchill?
38:43Estee Lauder said that.
38:46Well, I think
38:47it's inspiring.
38:50We all do.
38:53Well, are you gonna
38:54box up those cookies
38:55or just eat them?
38:56You're not paying me, Hannah.
39:00We're going through
39:01Bantry's phone records.
39:03Anything jump out
39:03the night that he died?
39:04A lot of calls.
39:06The host, Connie Mack,
39:08several people from work,
39:08his wife,
39:09but nothing irregular.
39:11One of the deputies
39:12did get a hold
39:14of the widow,
39:15Hainsley Bantry.
39:17She just was apparently
39:18at a yoga retreat.
39:20But they did a full interview,
39:21right?
39:21Yeah, but it's
39:22a little convenient.
39:24She just happens
39:25to be off the grid
39:26in OG,
39:27the night her husband's murdered.
39:28OG.
39:29Oh, Ojai.
39:31Yeah, I know
39:32that may seem unlikely,
39:33but they love
39:33their stuff in Hollywood.
39:34And how do you know Ojai?
39:36Well, I just happen
39:37to be stationed
39:37in Southern California
39:38at Camp Pendleton,
39:39and they love
39:40their retreats,
39:41their meditation retreats,
39:42their wellness retreats,
39:43their yoga retreats.
39:44And we'll have
39:45to take your word for it.
39:45Hey, you're following
39:46up on that though, right?
39:47Yes, I have a video
39:48conference call
39:49with the manager
39:50of the retreat in an hour.
39:51I want to make sure
39:51that Mrs. Bantry
39:52was seen by the staff
39:53the entire time.
39:54Okay, good.
39:55All right.
39:56Oh, Lonnie,
39:58I want to make sure
39:58you're ready
39:58for this Chastley trial
39:59on Monday.
40:01Okay.
40:02I'm calling you
40:02as my first witness.
40:03I want to make sure
40:04that we start
40:04with our strongest evidence first,
40:05establish forensics,
40:06make sure you're good to go.
40:08Yeah.
40:09Yeah, no problem.
40:11All right.
40:20All right.
