1
00:00:05,356 --> 00:00:08,392
Can you read that
all right, Hugo?
2
00:00:08,394 --> 00:00:10,360
You need glasses?
3
00:00:10,362 --> 00:00:12,029
It's an ad, I guess.
4
00:00:12,031 --> 00:00:13,997
Like, an online classified ad.
5
00:00:13,999 --> 00:00:16,066
You don't need to guess--
you placed it.
6
00:00:16,068 --> 00:00:18,135
IP address says it came
from the library
7
00:00:18,137 --> 00:00:19,536
down the block
from your apartment.
8
00:00:19,538 --> 00:00:21,738
"Wanted:
free spirits with dance moves.
9
00:00:21,740 --> 00:00:23,407
Make a memory and 50 bucks."
10
00:00:23,409 --> 00:00:25,542
You sent Raggedy Andy masks
like this one
11
00:00:25,544 --> 00:00:27,444
to everyone who responded.
12
00:00:27,446 --> 00:00:29,913
They thought they were gonna be
in a flash mob viral video.
13
00:00:29,915 --> 00:00:31,415
When in fact
they were participants
14
00:00:31,417 --> 00:00:32,816
in a human shell game.
15
00:00:32,818 --> 00:00:34,384
Your unwitting accomplices
provided cover,
16
00:00:34,386 --> 00:00:36,053
while you stabbed your boss
17
00:00:36,055 --> 00:00:37,220
in broad daylight.
18
00:00:37,222 --> 00:00:38,255
You then fled
19
00:00:38,257 --> 00:00:40,357
amongst the dispersing Andys.
20
00:00:40,359 --> 00:00:42,526
Nobody here thinks much
of your scheme,
21
00:00:42,528 --> 00:00:46,129
but your masks,
they're impressive.
22
00:00:46,131 --> 00:00:48,098
How long did it take you
to make 'em, Hugo?
23
00:00:48,100 --> 00:00:49,666
You think I can sew?
24
00:00:49,668 --> 00:00:51,201
Well enough
that it gave you away.
25
00:00:51,203 --> 00:00:53,370
Half the masks
we recovered bore these
26
00:00:53,372 --> 00:00:55,672
irregular stitches, here--
but only half.
27
00:00:55,674 --> 00:00:58,241
These defects bothered you enough
to seek out a replacement bobbin
28
00:00:58,243 --> 00:00:59,409
for your antique machine.
29
00:00:59,411 --> 00:01:01,211
You bought two
at the Stitch-rite
30
00:01:01,213 --> 00:01:02,646
down in the Garment District.
31
00:01:02,648 --> 00:01:04,014
It's on tape.
Go ahead, then,
32
00:01:04,016 --> 00:01:05,849
lock me up--
I got some bobbins.
33
00:01:05,851 --> 00:01:08,051
And...
34
00:01:08,886 --> 00:01:11,621
...a KA-BAR military knife.
35
00:01:12,657 --> 00:01:14,424
We recovered that
from the furnace
36
00:01:14,426 --> 00:01:15,792
at your mother's house.
37
00:01:15,794 --> 00:01:17,794
The leather handle
and the blood evidence
38
00:01:17,796 --> 00:01:19,830
have burned away,
but the serrated edge
39
00:01:19,832 --> 00:01:22,699
may as well as signed your name
on your victim's ribs.
40
00:01:22,701 --> 00:01:24,401
You want to give us
your confession,
41
00:01:24,403 --> 00:01:27,637
help us help you,
now would be a good time.
42
00:01:33,111 --> 00:01:34,344
Pat.
43
00:01:34,346 --> 00:01:35,479
Hey.
44
00:01:35,481 --> 00:01:37,013
No one told me
you were here.
45
00:01:37,015 --> 00:01:39,182
Heard you were in the box,
so I said
46
00:01:39,184 --> 00:01:41,084
I'd make myself at home.
Yeah.
47
00:01:41,086 --> 00:01:42,619
Close the door, would you?
48
00:01:42,621 --> 00:01:44,955
What brings you down?
49
00:01:44,957 --> 00:01:46,523
Nothing bad.
50
00:01:46,525 --> 00:01:48,758
Is it something good?
51
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,594
'Cause, uh...
52
00:01:50,596 --> 00:01:53,430
that's some top-shelf scotch.
I may not look
53
00:01:53,432 --> 00:01:55,565
like a fairy godmother, Tommy,
54
00:01:55,567 --> 00:01:58,235
but... looks can be deceiving.
55
00:02:00,138 --> 00:02:02,606
You and I are gonna have a chat
56
00:02:02,608 --> 00:02:05,008
about the future of this unit.
57
00:02:29,834 --> 00:02:33,503
I heard you found 12 mites
per hundred up at Hyde Park.
58
00:02:33,505 --> 00:02:35,972
Most of their hives
won't make it.
59
00:02:35,974 --> 00:02:38,608
I've been doing fieldwork
for the USDA for 15 years--
60
00:02:38,610 --> 00:02:40,243
I've never seen Colony Collapse
numbers this bad.
61
00:02:40,245 --> 00:02:42,412
I've got friends
in California
62
00:02:42,414 --> 00:02:44,514
say they're
gonna lose 20%, 25%.
63
00:02:44,516 --> 00:02:46,650
The winter was so cold
that folks up here
64
00:02:46,652 --> 00:02:47,784
are gonna lose twice that.
65
00:02:47,786 --> 00:02:48,852
Yeah.
66
00:02:48,854 --> 00:02:50,887
What do you think it is?
67
00:02:50,889 --> 00:02:52,856
Pesticides? Mites? What?
68
00:02:52,858 --> 00:02:54,224
You know, I don't know.
69
00:02:54,226 --> 00:02:56,359
But we're gonna get
to the bottom of it.
70
00:03:13,277 --> 00:03:15,045
Everett!
71
00:03:18,683 --> 00:03:22,819
What the hell have you done
to my bees!
72
00:03:26,524 --> 00:03:28,892
Oh, my God!
73
00:03:32,096 --> 00:03:34,164

Uh, understood.

I will, sir.
79
00:03:50,772 --> 00:03:54,140
If you guys work for the USDA,
why didn't you just say so?
80
00:03:54,142 --> 00:03:55,047
We don't.
81
00:03:55,071 --> 00:03:56,442
My partner's on a
beekeeping message board
82
00:03:56,444 --> 00:03:57,944
with a few of
their researchers.
83
00:03:57,946 --> 00:03:59,746
They asked us
to come and have a look,
84
00:03:59,748 --> 00:04:01,347
since it's one
of their colleagues that died.
85
00:04:01,349 --> 00:04:03,316
Guess I should apologize
for the misunderstanding.
86
00:04:03,318 --> 00:04:04,283
Oh, that's quite
all right, Officer.
87
00:04:04,285 --> 00:04:06,018
It was very rude of me
88
00:04:06,020 --> 00:04:08,054
to save your life
in such a brusque fashion.
89
00:04:08,056 --> 00:04:09,689
I'm not sure
you saved my life.
90
00:04:09,691 --> 00:04:12,892
Yanked evidence out of
my hand is more like it.
91
00:04:12,894 --> 00:04:14,627
If he hadn't, you'd be
suffering arrhythmia by now.
92
00:04:14,629 --> 00:04:16,796
If you kept smelling that egg
carton, it would've killed you.
93
00:04:16,798 --> 00:04:18,097
Now, you said
you could tell that thing
94
00:04:18,099 --> 00:04:20,500
was soaked in cyanide
by the scent?
95
00:04:20,502 --> 00:04:21,701
From ten feet away.
96
00:04:21,703 --> 00:04:23,336
Okay. So...
97
00:04:23,338 --> 00:04:25,404
somebody dropped that
in the guy's smoker,
98
00:04:25,406 --> 00:04:27,974
and then he goes off
to comb the swarm,
99
00:04:27,976 --> 00:04:32,211
and poof-- he's gassing
the bees and breathing poison.
100
00:04:32,213 --> 00:04:34,747
An eloquent summation. You might
want to tell your colleague
101
00:04:34,749 --> 00:04:36,816
that the apiarist
is not a strong suspect.
102
00:04:36,818 --> 00:04:38,084
The hell she isn't.
103
00:04:38,086 --> 00:04:39,318
She was the only other person
104
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:40,586
out here when
this thing happened.
105
00:04:40,588 --> 00:04:41,687
And as far as Watson and I
106
00:04:41,689 --> 00:04:43,055
have been able to discern,
utterly devoid
107
00:04:43,057 --> 00:04:44,257
of any motive--
108
00:04:44,259 --> 00:04:45,958
unlike the soulless
corporate golem
109
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,593
that is AgriNext.
110
00:04:47,595 --> 00:04:50,296
You think a company did this?
111
00:04:50,298 --> 00:04:52,064
It wouldn't be the first time
they'd harbored a killer.
112
00:04:52,066 --> 00:04:55,067
He's right-- we found one there
a few months ago.
113
00:04:55,069 --> 00:04:56,836
So what makes you think
they did this?
114
00:04:56,838 --> 00:04:58,871
Elevated levels
of Colony Collapse Disorder
115
00:04:58,873 --> 00:05:00,173
along the Northeast.
116
00:05:00,175 --> 00:05:01,908
You putting that
on AgriNext, too?
117
00:05:01,910 --> 00:05:03,543
Everett Keck did.
118
00:05:03,545 --> 00:05:05,311
His notes strongly suggest
that the company's
119
00:05:05,313 --> 00:05:08,147
neonicotinoid pesticides
are the cause.
120
00:05:08,149 --> 00:05:11,350
So this guy was killed
over some dead bees?
121
00:05:11,352 --> 00:05:13,152
A hundred million dead bees.
122
00:05:13,154 --> 00:05:14,787
The regional numbers
are so anomalous
123
00:05:14,789 --> 00:05:16,322
that an international
apiary summit
124
00:05:16,324 --> 00:05:18,157
has been convened
at Garrison University
125
00:05:18,159 --> 00:05:19,992
to discuss the problem
this week.
126
00:05:19,994 --> 00:05:21,594
Everett Keck's notes
suggest he was willing
127
00:05:21,596 --> 00:05:23,963
to cut short that debate
and lay the blame squarely
128
00:05:23,965 --> 00:05:25,064
at the feet of AgriNext.
129
00:05:25,066 --> 00:05:26,465
Officer,
need a hand here!
130
00:05:26,467 --> 00:05:28,835
So, are you good here?
131
00:05:28,837 --> 00:05:31,003
I'm done here, actually.
132
00:05:31,638 --> 00:05:33,139
Why?
133
00:05:33,141 --> 00:05:35,007
The captain wants to see me
at the station.
134
00:05:35,009 --> 00:05:36,809
He says he needs my help
with something.
135
00:05:38,312 --> 00:05:40,313
"Come by the office.
136
00:05:40,315 --> 00:05:41,647
No Sherlock."
137
00:05:41,649 --> 00:05:42,815
Come in, come in.
138
00:05:42,817 --> 00:05:43,983
Close the door.
139
00:05:48,322 --> 00:05:49,789
I'm sorry for the
cloak-and-dagger-- it's just,
140
00:05:49,791 --> 00:05:51,190
this is a little delicate.
141
00:05:51,192 --> 00:05:53,059
Is everything okay?
142
00:05:53,061 --> 00:05:55,494
I've been offered a promotion.
143
00:05:56,530 --> 00:05:58,130
Wow.
144
00:05:58,132 --> 00:05:59,765
Downtown likes
the work we've been doing,
145
00:05:59,767 --> 00:06:02,235
and they want to bump me up
to deputy chief.
146
00:06:03,537 --> 00:06:06,172
That's incredible!
Do I give you a hug?
147
00:06:06,174 --> 00:06:07,240
No, no, no, no, no.
148
00:06:07,242 --> 00:06:08,975
You can, you can sit.
149
00:06:08,977 --> 00:06:10,443
This is not a done deal.
150
00:06:10,445 --> 00:06:11,477
Well, but you're
gonna say yes.
151
00:06:11,479 --> 00:06:13,512
Why wouldn't you?
152
00:06:13,514 --> 00:06:15,348
If I'm not leaving
my people in good hands,
153
00:06:15,350 --> 00:06:17,650
I'm not leaving my people
at all.
154
00:06:17,652 --> 00:06:20,820
Now, the name they've floated
to replace me is Ann Vescey.
155
00:06:20,822 --> 00:06:24,223
She's a C.O. of the five-one
squad, up in the Bronx.
156
00:06:24,225 --> 00:06:25,124
Do you know her?
157
00:06:25,126 --> 00:06:26,926
I know of her.
158
00:06:26,928 --> 00:06:29,061
She's, uh, got some heat.
159
00:06:29,063 --> 00:06:31,030
All the right people are fans.
160
00:06:31,032 --> 00:06:33,833
But I'm worried
about her home base.
161
00:06:33,835 --> 00:06:36,035
The five-one had
a property room scandal
162
00:06:36,037 --> 00:06:38,337
a couple of years back,
and although
163
00:06:38,339 --> 00:06:40,306
she wasn't implicated...
164
00:06:40,308 --> 00:06:42,241
You want me to check her out.
165
00:06:42,243 --> 00:06:44,176
Yeah.
166
00:06:44,178 --> 00:06:47,914
A few of her guys there had a habit
of skimming from a big coke bust
167
00:06:47,916 --> 00:06:49,649
that they had
in property lockup.
168
00:06:49,651 --> 00:06:52,218
They were careful,
took a little at a time--
169
00:06:52,220 --> 00:06:56,756
long story short is, IAB wasn't
sure that they got everyone.
170
00:06:56,758 --> 00:06:58,791
Now, Major Crimes
171
00:06:58,793 --> 00:07:00,493
has the biggest
discretionary budget
172
00:07:00,495 --> 00:07:02,228
short of Counterterrorism.
173
00:07:02,230 --> 00:07:03,896
I got to know
for sure that
174
00:07:03,898 --> 00:07:05,131
I'm not handing over the keys
175
00:07:05,133 --> 00:07:06,232
to someone with sticky fingers.
176
00:07:06,234 --> 00:07:07,934
I get it.
177
00:07:07,936 --> 00:07:11,170
I would've asked you
to bring Holmes, but...
178
00:07:11,172 --> 00:07:12,738
It's delicate.
179
00:07:12,740 --> 00:07:14,407
I'm happy to help.
180
00:07:15,442 --> 00:07:17,209
You told me on the phone
181
00:07:17,211 --> 00:07:18,945
this was about
the Barbara Conway case.
182
00:07:18,947 --> 00:07:20,479
It seemed unlikely
you'd be willing
183
00:07:20,481 --> 00:07:23,482
to talk about the real reason
for my visit, so I lied.
184
00:07:23,484 --> 00:07:25,785
I'm sure you'll return
the favor soon enough.
185
00:07:27,388 --> 00:07:28,988
I don't understand the
hostility, Mr. Holmes.
186
00:07:28,990 --> 00:07:31,057
You... you solved
the murder of our CFO
187
00:07:31,059 --> 00:07:32,892
and one of our
board members,
188
00:07:32,894 --> 00:07:35,027
and you still don't think
we'd meet with you?
189
00:07:35,029 --> 00:07:37,196
Because this place is
a malevolent hellmouth,
190
00:07:37,198 --> 00:07:39,131
and all who pass
through it
191
00:07:39,133 --> 00:07:41,534
are complicit in an ongoing
ecological onslaught.
192
00:07:41,536 --> 00:07:43,669
Or does AgriNext still deny
193
00:07:43,671 --> 00:07:46,005
that its pesticides are causing
Colony Collapse Disorder?
194
00:07:46,007 --> 00:07:48,307
Of course it does.
There's never been a credible link...
195
00:07:48,309 --> 00:07:49,709
So, the company
would have had
196
00:07:49,711 --> 00:07:51,577
motive to do away
with someone
197
00:07:51,579 --> 00:07:53,446
who was trying
to find the link.
198
00:07:53,448 --> 00:07:56,115
Everett Keck, for example.
199
00:07:58,518 --> 00:08:02,154
I doubt that anyone in this room
committed the actual crime,
200
00:08:02,156 --> 00:08:05,958
but in a pit such as AgriNext,
it takes time to determine
201
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,661
where one snake ends
and the next begins,
202
00:08:08,663 --> 00:08:10,796
so I'm going to give
your executives
203
00:08:10,798 --> 00:08:14,200
as much warning as possible:
come forward with information,
204
00:08:14,202 --> 00:08:15,968
you may be spared.
205
00:08:18,872 --> 00:08:20,639
You're right...
206
00:08:20,641 --> 00:08:23,743
about the company having
an awareness of Mr. Keck.
207
00:08:23,745 --> 00:08:26,779
Naturally, we knew about the
work he was doing for the ASI.
208
00:08:26,781 --> 00:08:28,547
We knew about his report.
209
00:08:28,549 --> 00:08:31,417
But trust me, nobody here
needed to hurt him.
210
00:08:31,419 --> 00:08:32,952
We were well prepared
211
00:08:32,954 --> 00:08:35,121
to counter any claims
he might make.
212
00:08:35,123 --> 00:08:36,856
Explain.
213
00:08:36,858 --> 00:08:40,192
We invested in some
oppositional research.
214
00:08:40,194 --> 00:08:43,496
As it turned out, Mr. Keck...
215
00:08:43,498 --> 00:08:45,664
was academically under-qualified
216
00:08:45,666 --> 00:08:47,266
for his position.
217
00:08:47,268 --> 00:08:49,001
He was a Buddhist
seminary dropout.
218
00:08:49,003 --> 00:08:52,138
Also an abuser of
recreational drugs.
219
00:08:52,140 --> 00:08:54,306
He also had
problems at work.
220
00:08:54,308 --> 00:08:55,841
He made enemies.
221
00:08:55,843 --> 00:08:58,677
At one point, the USDA
even had to suspend him.
222
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,180
So I could probably
provide you with the names
223
00:09:01,182 --> 00:09:03,382
of a few good suspects...
224
00:09:03,384 --> 00:09:07,153
but I'm afraid you haven't
put me in a very generous mood.
225
00:09:07,155 --> 00:09:10,122
So I think I'd rather
you just left.
226
00:09:17,298 --> 00:09:19,131
Hi.
227
00:09:19,133 --> 00:09:21,233
Is the captain leaving us?
228
00:09:21,235 --> 00:09:23,436
Do you have his office bugged
or something?
229
00:09:23,438 --> 00:09:24,970
So you don't deny it.
How could you...
230
00:09:24,972 --> 00:09:27,173
Timing and context.
The spring
231
00:09:27,175 --> 00:09:29,642
before an election is the NYPD's
traditional housecleaning season.
232
00:09:29,644 --> 00:09:32,678
And it was only a matter of
time before our clearance rate
233
00:09:32,680 --> 00:09:34,213
conferred glory
upon the captain.
234
00:09:34,215 --> 00:09:36,415
Not that he isn't
deserving of it himself,
235
00:09:36,417 --> 00:09:38,417
of course.
236
00:09:38,419 --> 00:09:40,519
You saw the personnel file.
237
00:09:40,521 --> 00:09:42,621
Lieutenant Vescey's name
238
00:09:42,623 --> 00:09:45,291
is familiar to me, as are most
names within the department.
239
00:09:45,293 --> 00:09:47,526
It's not a great leap to
imagine that the captain
240
00:09:47,528 --> 00:09:49,328
would want to vet his
potential replacement.
241
00:09:49,330 --> 00:09:51,197
Do you know much about her?
I know she's
242
00:09:51,199 --> 00:09:53,065
considered by many
to be a rising star,
243
00:09:53,067 --> 00:09:55,601
but as for the woman herself,
I've not had the pleasure.
244
00:09:55,603 --> 00:09:57,303
She came up
with a few bad apples--
245
00:09:57,305 --> 00:09:59,238
I'm supposed to find out
if they rubbed off.
246
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:00,806
Mm.
247
00:10:01,908 --> 00:10:04,710
That's it?
What's it?
248
00:10:04,712 --> 00:10:07,346
I tell you the captain
might be leaving, and nothing?
249
00:10:07,348 --> 00:10:10,216
Well, did you imagine he
would remain a captain forever?
250
00:10:10,218 --> 00:10:12,318
Do you think Marcus will
always be a detective?
251
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:13,652
You and I exist
252
00:10:13,654 --> 00:10:15,354
outside of the bureaucracy
of the department,
253
00:10:15,356 --> 00:10:16,922
and that is by design.
254
00:10:16,924 --> 00:10:18,824
Our colleagues
are as vulnerable to promotions
255
00:10:18,826 --> 00:10:20,960
as they are to demotions,
256
00:10:20,962 --> 00:10:22,661
and we can do little
257
00:10:22,663 --> 00:10:25,464
but honor the former
and mourn the latter.
258
00:10:25,466 --> 00:10:28,033
And what if Captain Vescey
doesn't think she needs
259
00:10:28,035 --> 00:10:29,768
a couple of consultants
hanging around?
260
00:10:29,770 --> 00:10:32,004
Then she will reveal herself
an idiot.
261
00:10:32,006 --> 00:10:33,305
And you and I
262
00:10:33,307 --> 00:10:34,907
shall find a new perch--
263
00:10:34,909 --> 00:10:37,710
presumably with the help
of a newly promoted friend.
264
00:10:39,112 --> 00:10:40,579
Oh...
265
00:10:40,581 --> 00:10:43,015
Looks like you opened up
a satellite office
266
00:10:43,017 --> 00:10:45,184
for the Department
of Agriculture in here.
267
00:10:45,186 --> 00:10:47,953
25,000 species of bee--
always much to learn.
268
00:10:47,955 --> 00:10:50,322
Well, if you're planning on
picking up where Keck left off,
269
00:10:50,324 --> 00:10:52,291
it might be nice
to solve his murder first.
270
00:10:52,293 --> 00:10:54,760
at I believe
I may have already done.
271
00:10:54,762 --> 00:10:57,463
I was gone for two hours.
272
00:10:57,465 --> 00:11:00,266
Our friends at AgriNext planned
273
00:11:00,268 --> 00:11:02,368
to run a smear campaign
against Everett Keck.
274
00:11:02,370 --> 00:11:04,637
They claimed
he had a drug problem,
275
00:11:04,639 --> 00:11:06,405
and he'd been suspended
from work.
276
00:11:06,407 --> 00:11:07,773
Keck's tox screen confirmed
277
00:11:07,775 --> 00:11:10,543
he was indeed
a habitual marijuana user,
278
00:11:10,545 --> 00:11:13,245
and that he died
with Viagra in his system.
279
00:11:13,247 --> 00:11:16,882
I enquired of the USDA
as to his work troubles.
280
00:11:16,884 --> 00:11:19,885
Everett Keck received
a week's paid leave
281
00:11:19,887 --> 00:11:22,621
whilst enquiries were made
to accusations levied
282
00:11:22,623 --> 00:11:25,691
by a Poughkeepsie beekeeper
named Darryl Jarvis.
283
00:11:25,693 --> 00:11:28,994
This guy thinks
that Keck killed his bees.
284
00:11:28,996 --> 00:11:30,996
By introducing deadly
varroa mites into his hives.
285
00:11:30,998 --> 00:11:32,665
During the course
of the investigation,
286
00:11:32,667 --> 00:11:34,133
it became clear, though,
287
00:11:34,135 --> 00:11:35,968
that Darryl Jarvis was
a paranoid schizophrenic.
288
00:11:35,970 --> 00:11:39,505
Some speculated that his claims
were just results of delusions.
289
00:11:39,507 --> 00:11:42,408
So that probably made Jarvis
even angrier.
290
00:11:42,410 --> 00:11:44,677
That wasn't enough, have a look
at Mr. Jarvis's address.
291
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,213
Everett Keck examined hives
at an apiary
292
00:11:47,215 --> 00:11:49,215
across the street
the day before he died.
293
00:11:49,217 --> 00:11:51,183
So Jarvis would have had
ample opportunity
294
00:11:51,185 --> 00:11:52,851
to tamper with the smoker.
295
00:11:52,853 --> 00:11:55,554
Seems like a man
worth talking to.
296
00:11:59,726 --> 00:12:02,361
It's never wise to wait for
rubbish collection, Mr. Jarvis.
297
00:12:02,363 --> 00:12:04,797
It's always better
to burn the evidence.
298
00:12:04,799 --> 00:12:06,832
What do you mean?
299
00:12:06,834 --> 00:12:09,702
The ground apple seeds you used
in preparation of your cyanide,
300
00:12:09,704 --> 00:12:12,504
the other half of the egg carton
you soaked in it.
301
00:12:12,506 --> 00:12:13,973
You stuffed the other half
302
00:12:13,975 --> 00:12:15,341
in Keck's smoker yesterday
303
00:12:15,343 --> 00:12:17,209
when he was working
across the road.
304
00:12:22,415 --> 00:12:24,783
I couldn't sleep.
305
00:12:24,785 --> 00:12:27,920
That's why I answered
the door so fast.
306
00:12:29,789 --> 00:12:31,857
I was lying in bed,
307
00:12:31,859 --> 00:12:35,227
thinking about
turning myself in.
308
00:12:35,229 --> 00:12:39,431
The minute I heard it worked,
I wished I hadn't done it.
309
00:12:39,433 --> 00:12:42,134
Even after what he did
to my hives.
310
00:12:43,470 --> 00:12:46,138
Even after
no one believed me.
311
00:12:48,842 --> 00:12:51,110
You think I'm crazy,
too, don't you?
312
00:12:51,112 --> 00:12:53,479
We're aware of your condition.
313
00:12:53,481 --> 00:12:56,081
I'm a schizophrenic.
314
00:12:57,784 --> 00:13:02,087
That means I'm in good shape
for an insanity defense, right?
315
00:13:03,757 --> 00:13:06,425
I haven't
gone off my meds in years.
316
00:13:08,428 --> 00:13:10,996
When I put that carton
in Keck's smoker,
317
00:13:10,998 --> 00:13:13,132
I was in my right mind,
318
00:13:13,134 --> 00:13:15,567
just like I was
319
00:13:15,569 --> 00:13:19,071
when I saw him
put those mites in my hives.
320
00:13:19,073 --> 00:13:21,507
Just like I am now.
321
00:13:23,944 --> 00:13:26,445
Feel free to put all that
in your report.
322
00:13:26,447 --> 00:13:27,813
Why would he have done it?
323
00:13:27,815 --> 00:13:29,948
Keck?
324
00:13:29,950 --> 00:13:32,384
Why would he have wanted
to harm your hives?
325
00:13:32,386 --> 00:13:36,388
I don't have any idea.
326
00:13:36,390 --> 00:13:38,957
I just know what I saw.
327
00:13:51,571 --> 00:13:54,006
No, I'm a consultant
with the NYPD.
328
00:13:54,008 --> 00:13:57,943
But a warrant could be arranged
pursuant to my request.
329
00:13:57,945 --> 00:14:00,946
Or, if you prefer,
a formal summons could be issued
330
00:14:00,948 --> 00:14:03,415
in response
to this needless obstruction.
331
00:14:08,154 --> 00:14:11,757
No, don't me on hol...
332
00:14:11,759 --> 00:14:13,559
Oh.
333
00:14:13,561 --> 00:14:15,627
That didn't used to be here.
334
00:14:15,629 --> 00:14:17,429
I'm on hold.
335
00:14:17,431 --> 00:14:18,664
Oh, what's with the files?
336
00:14:18,666 --> 00:14:20,099
We closed Keck last night.
337
00:14:20,101 --> 00:14:21,700
I didn't dream that, did I?
338
00:14:21,702 --> 00:14:23,969
I think Darryl Jarvis was right.
339
00:14:23,971 --> 00:14:26,805
Everett Keck did kill his hives.
340
00:14:26,807 --> 00:14:30,976
I thought the USDA investigated,
and they didn't find anything.
341
00:14:30,978 --> 00:14:32,745
They didn't, but they may have
342
00:14:32,747 --> 00:14:34,913
if bee stings didn't bear
some resemblance
343
00:14:34,915 --> 00:14:36,415
to hypodermic marks.
344
00:14:36,417 --> 00:14:38,684
What are you talking about?
345
00:14:38,686 --> 00:14:41,019
I rendered the latter
with a pin.
346
00:14:41,021 --> 00:14:43,589
Can you tell the difference
from the bee stings?
347
00:14:43,591 --> 00:14:46,925
You're getting stung
by bees on purpose?
348
00:14:46,927 --> 00:14:48,137
Obviously.
349
00:14:48,161 --> 00:14:50,261
I don't have enough
caffeine in my system
350
00:14:50,297 --> 00:14:52,264
to understand you
right now.
351
00:14:52,266 --> 00:14:54,800
The Department of Agriculture
never officially closed
352
00:14:54,802 --> 00:14:56,602
its investigation
into Everett Keck.
353
00:14:56,604 --> 00:14:58,270
It simply withered on the vine
354
00:14:58,272 --> 00:15:00,873
when the supervisor in charge,
Calvin Barnes,
355
00:15:00,875 --> 00:15:02,674
suffered a heart attack,
356
00:15:02,676 --> 00:15:04,777
and subsequent
anoxic brain injury.
357
00:15:04,779 --> 00:15:06,345
He took early retirement.
358
00:15:06,347 --> 00:15:07,746
The matter was dropped.
359
00:15:07,748 --> 00:15:09,181
Okay.
360
00:15:09,183 --> 00:15:11,517
Calvin Barnes
ran two marathons last year.
361
00:15:11,519 --> 00:15:13,952
His cardiovascular health
was excellent.
362
00:15:13,954 --> 00:15:16,755
But it was reported, he
sustained several bee stings
363
00:15:16,757 --> 00:15:18,957
in the field on
the day he collapsed.
364
00:15:18,959 --> 00:15:20,359
Some people thought
365
00:15:20,361 --> 00:15:22,628
that he suffered
a delayed allergic reaction.
366
00:15:22,630 --> 00:15:24,530
I, myself, do not.
367
00:15:24,532 --> 00:15:26,331
I've been negotiating
with the hospital
368
00:15:26,333 --> 00:15:28,700
that treated Mr. Barnes
to release his records.
369
00:15:28,702 --> 00:15:30,903
When they do,
I suspect his blood work
370
00:15:30,905 --> 00:15:33,906
will show elevated levels
of potassium and chlorine.
371
00:15:33,908 --> 00:15:36,608
Hold on. You're saying
that someone poisoned him?
372
00:15:36,610 --> 00:15:38,644
To bring on the heart attack.
Precisely.
373
00:15:38,646 --> 00:15:41,647
But the injection mark was lost
amongst the bee stings.
374
00:15:41,649 --> 00:15:45,918
So you think that Keck
tried to kill his boss
375
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,020
to cover up poisoning
a few bee hives?
376
00:15:48,022 --> 00:15:49,087
More than a few.
377
00:15:49,089 --> 00:15:50,422
I've come to believe
378
00:15:50,424 --> 00:15:51,790
that Everett Keck
was not just studying
379
00:15:51,792 --> 00:15:53,392
Colony Collapse Disorder.
380
00:15:53,394 --> 00:15:57,796
Everett Keck was Colony
Collapse Disorder incarnate.
381
00:16:03,570 --> 00:16:06,405
You might recall
my recent concern
382
00:16:06,407 --> 00:16:08,640
over varroas
in my own hives.
383
00:16:08,642 --> 00:16:10,843
These fears were born
out of rumblings on
384
00:16:10,845 --> 00:16:12,211
BeeCircuit.com.
385
00:16:12,213 --> 00:16:13,745
Most of the talk
386
00:16:13,747 --> 00:16:15,948
on the spike of this season's
colony death rate
387
00:16:15,950 --> 00:16:18,250
centered around the spread
of deadly mites.
388
00:16:18,252 --> 00:16:21,653
Okay, but I thought Keck was
gonna prove it was pesticides.
389
00:16:21,655 --> 00:16:23,288
That's what his note suggested.
390
00:16:23,290 --> 00:16:25,624
That's what he intended
to report, but
391
00:16:25,626 --> 00:16:28,293
but the data suggests that
the parasites were appearing
392
00:16:28,295 --> 00:16:30,696
in greater than expected numbers
everywhere he went.
393
00:16:31,764 --> 00:16:34,233
You did all this
overnight?
394
00:16:34,235 --> 00:16:36,001
You know I outsource arithmetic
to Harlan.
395
00:16:36,003 --> 00:16:37,803
Okay, so, that's Keck.
396
00:16:37,805 --> 00:16:40,672
And there are three other
ASI researchers.
397
00:16:40,674 --> 00:16:42,441
He found more mites
than the others.
398
00:16:42,443 --> 00:16:44,209
Many more.
According to Harlan,
399
00:16:44,211 --> 00:16:46,345
the variance between Keck
and his colleagues
400
00:16:46,347 --> 00:16:48,413
cannot be explained away
by known confounds.
401
00:16:48,415 --> 00:16:51,049
The odds
that Mr. Keck was not actively
402
00:16:51,051 --> 00:16:52,851
spreading varroa mites
everywhere he went
403
00:16:52,853 --> 00:16:54,686
approaches one in 29,000.
404
00:16:54,688 --> 00:16:56,154
So, there isn't a spike
405
00:16:56,156 --> 00:16:58,190
in Colony Collapse
Disorder after all.
406
00:16:58,192 --> 00:17:00,125
Every dead hive is a tragedy.
407
00:17:00,127 --> 00:17:03,662
But outside of one nefarious
USDA field researcher,
408
00:17:03,664 --> 00:17:07,266
no, the CCD baseline
would not be inflated at all.
409
00:17:07,268 --> 00:17:09,635
Why would he do something like this?
I don't know.
410
00:17:09,637 --> 00:17:12,137
I'm fairly certain, however,
he had help.
411
00:17:12,139 --> 00:17:14,139
The heart attack
that almost killed Calvin Barnes
412
00:17:14,141 --> 00:17:17,476
occurred whilst Mr. Keck was
doing his rounds in Connecticut.
413
00:17:17,478 --> 00:17:18,677
He had a partner.
414
00:17:18,679 --> 00:17:20,112
We've solved one murder.
415
00:17:20,114 --> 00:17:22,381
Now we just have
the remaining 100 million.
416
00:17:35,275 --> 00:17:39,946
I wish Cal was here
to help explain this.
417
00:17:40,579 --> 00:17:43,580
I-I mean, really here.
418
00:17:43,582 --> 00:17:45,515
In short, Mrs. Barnes,
we think that your husband
419
00:17:45,517 --> 00:17:47,217
was on the verge
of uncovering a plot
420
00:17:47,219 --> 00:17:49,119
to kill off the Northeast's
bee population.
421
00:17:49,121 --> 00:17:51,121
Did he ever
talk to you about someone
422
00:17:51,123 --> 00:17:52,489
named Everett Keck?
423
00:17:52,491 --> 00:17:55,091
Sure, he was looking
into Everett
424
00:17:55,093 --> 00:17:57,694
around the time
of his heart attack.
425
00:17:57,696 --> 00:18:00,196
We think that might have been
more than just a coincidence.
426
00:18:00,198 --> 00:18:02,032
I don't understand.
427
00:18:02,034 --> 00:18:04,934
Are you saying that you think
Everett did this to him?
428
00:18:04,936 --> 00:18:08,571
Not Mr. Keck, a partner
whom we have yet to identify.
429
00:18:08,573 --> 00:18:11,274
Oh...
430
00:18:11,276 --> 00:18:15,312
Well, that actually
makes... sense.
431
00:18:15,314 --> 00:18:16,846
When I found Cal,
432
00:18:16,848 --> 00:18:20,617
that's-that's
what I thought, too.
433
00:18:21,686 --> 00:18:24,187
What do you mean?
434
00:18:24,189 --> 00:18:27,957
Well, just the-the things
that I saw...
435
00:18:27,959 --> 00:18:29,326
This mirror was smashed.
436
00:18:29,328 --> 00:18:30,827
It had to be replaced.
437
00:18:30,829 --> 00:18:33,163
There was a bump
on his head.
438
00:18:33,165 --> 00:18:35,398
I thought they were signs
of a struggle.
439
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:39,936
But the paramedics told me
that sometimes this happens.
440
00:18:39,938 --> 00:18:42,806
Someone will have
a heart attack, fall down,
441
00:18:42,808 --> 00:18:44,741
knock things over.
442
00:18:44,743 --> 00:18:47,010
So where was he lying
when you found him?
443
00:18:47,012 --> 00:18:49,112
Right here, with his,
444
00:18:49,114 --> 00:18:50,947
um, head towards
the living room.
445
00:18:50,949 --> 00:18:52,716
All right.
446
00:18:52,718 --> 00:18:59,489
Here?
447
00:19:05,763 --> 00:19:07,597
Was this door open?
448
00:19:07,599 --> 00:19:09,966
No, it was closed.
449
00:19:09,968 --> 00:19:11,868
Closed.
450
00:19:11,870 --> 00:19:14,537
What about this gash
in the molding here?
451
00:19:14,539 --> 00:19:15,972
Is that new?
452
00:19:15,974 --> 00:19:18,675
I think perhaps your husband
fell against the door?
453
00:19:18,677 --> 00:19:20,410
No, that shouldn't be there.
454
00:19:20,412 --> 00:19:23,313
We had this place painted
right before Christmas.
455
00:19:23,315 --> 00:19:24,914
It was perfect.
456
00:19:26,418 --> 00:19:28,685
Would you excuse me
for a moment?
457
00:19:32,022 --> 00:19:33,690
So, what do you think?
458
00:19:33,692 --> 00:19:37,193
I think there was a struggle
that started here by the closet.
459
00:19:37,195 --> 00:19:39,195
And I'm now more certain
than ever
460
00:19:39,197 --> 00:19:42,132
that Mr. Keck's partner injected
a potassium chloride solution
461
00:19:42,134 --> 00:19:44,334
to stop Mr. Barnes's heart.
462
00:19:47,772 --> 00:19:51,674
None of our unsolved cases
interesting enough, huh?
463
00:19:51,676 --> 00:19:55,445
Got me turning heart attacks
into attempted homicides now?
464
00:19:55,447 --> 00:19:57,680
Well, that's just
one more case for the pile,
465
00:19:57,682 --> 00:19:59,649
but we are gonna
help you close it.
466
00:19:59,651 --> 00:20:02,118
CSU isn't. They just got back
from Calvin Barnes's place.
467
00:20:02,120 --> 00:20:04,454
There's plenty of blonde hair
and fingerprints,
468
00:20:04,456 --> 00:20:06,489
but nothing you wouldn't expect
inside the home
469
00:20:06,491 --> 00:20:08,425
of two blonde people
with a golden retriever.
470
00:20:08,427 --> 00:20:09,893
The attack was four weeks ago.
471
00:20:09,895 --> 00:20:11,628
That foyer has been cleaned
by housekeepers,
472
00:20:11,630 --> 00:20:13,830
- if not the assailant himself.
- You any closer
473
00:20:13,832 --> 00:20:15,398
to telling me why
someone would want
474
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,467
to kill a bunch of bees
up and down the Northeast?
475
00:20:17,469 --> 00:20:20,136
Well, my most promising theory
was that it was an attempt
476
00:20:20,138 --> 00:20:21,704
to manipulate
the commodities exchange.
477
00:20:21,706 --> 00:20:23,173
New York is the second largest
478
00:20:23,175 --> 00:20:25,041
grower of apples
in the United States.
479
00:20:25,043 --> 00:20:27,210
The business is reliant
on pollination by bees,
480
00:20:27,212 --> 00:20:29,412
so, it would most assuredly
be impacted.
481
00:20:29,414 --> 00:20:33,016
But, as it turns out, no one has
been shorting the industry.
482
00:20:33,018 --> 00:20:34,384
So you're back to square one.
483
00:20:34,386 --> 00:20:36,553
Well, maybe one and a half.
484
00:20:36,555 --> 00:20:37,921
I have another theory.
485
00:20:37,923 --> 00:20:39,355
You know that apiary summit
486
00:20:39,357 --> 00:20:41,458
you were talking about
in Garrison?
487
00:20:41,460 --> 00:20:43,693
Every researcher
attending has motive.
488
00:20:43,695 --> 00:20:45,228
How do you figure?
489
00:20:45,230 --> 00:20:47,464
Colony collapse rates
have improved since 2011.
490
00:20:47,466 --> 00:20:49,399
Research funding has begun
to dry up.
491
00:20:49,401 --> 00:20:51,334
This new scare
could be the work
492
00:20:51,336 --> 00:20:53,336
of an academic
rattling his tin cup.
493
00:20:53,338 --> 00:20:56,072
It's worth a trip to New Jersey
to find out, right?
494
00:20:56,074 --> 00:20:58,875
You seriously think someone
495
00:20:58,877 --> 00:21:00,643
from the USDA is behind
these numbers?
496
00:21:00,645 --> 00:21:03,179
Evidence is quite compelling,
is it not?
497
00:21:03,181 --> 00:21:06,716
No. No way. You can't just
write off a global issue
498
00:21:06,718 --> 00:21:08,117
because one guy went
on a bee-killing spree.
499
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,220
I share your concerns
500
00:21:10,222 --> 00:21:12,655
about Colony Collapse Disorder
writ large, I do.
501
00:21:12,657 --> 00:21:14,691
I have hives of my own.
502
00:21:14,693 --> 00:21:16,759
But your degree
is in entomology, and, uh,
503
00:21:16,761 --> 00:21:18,628
the mathematicians have spoken.
504
00:21:18,630 --> 00:21:22,799
Uh, Griff? Come here.
You should hear this.
505
00:21:22,801 --> 00:21:24,434
This is my husband,
Griffin Parker.
506
00:21:24,436 --> 00:21:26,102
He's a professor here, too.
507
00:21:26,104 --> 00:21:27,570
They think some USDA guy...
508
00:21:27,572 --> 00:21:30,673
Everett Keck.
They think he was dropping mites
509
00:21:30,675 --> 00:21:34,043
in hives all over New York and
Connecticut the past few months.
510
00:21:34,045 --> 00:21:36,379
The purpose of your summit is
to study this year's spike
511
00:21:36,381 --> 00:21:39,282
in Colony Collapse Disorder
and find answers.
512
00:21:39,284 --> 00:21:41,918
We submit you might be holding
those answers in your hands.
513
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,454
So, this guy's, what, insane?
514
00:21:44,456 --> 00:21:45,989
Or just a canny fund-raiser.
515
00:21:45,991 --> 00:21:48,424
We think he has a partner
who may have a way
516
00:21:48,426 --> 00:21:50,159
to cash in on the
higher CCD numbers.
517
00:21:50,161 --> 00:21:53,062
Do you know if any
of your attendees
518
00:21:53,064 --> 00:21:55,064
are writing grant proposals
to study the outbreak?
519
00:21:55,066 --> 00:21:58,101
Offhand, no,
but it's a safe bet someone is.
520
00:21:58,103 --> 00:22:00,169
But the outcry
for this summit
521
00:22:00,171 --> 00:22:02,338
has come from all corners.
I mean, everyone
522
00:22:02,340 --> 00:22:03,773
is worried about
what's happening here
523
00:22:03,775 --> 00:22:05,375
in the tri-state area,
where it goes next year.
524
00:22:05,377 --> 00:22:07,744
Well, you're not wrong
about the funds drying up.
525
00:22:07,746 --> 00:22:09,812
We're the only entomology
department in the radius
526
00:22:09,814 --> 00:22:12,081
of the outbreak that had
the cash to host this thing.
527
00:22:12,083 --> 00:22:14,817
To our point-- many of your
colleagues, less fortunate.
528
00:22:14,819 --> 00:22:16,553
It would be a great help
to us if you could give us
529
00:22:16,555 --> 00:22:18,354
a list of your
esteemed guests.
530
00:22:20,457 --> 00:22:23,560
The people you're talking
about... are scientists.
531
00:22:23,562 --> 00:22:25,161
Not murderers.
532
00:22:25,163 --> 00:22:27,196
The frequency of overlap
between those two vocations
533
00:22:27,198 --> 00:22:28,698
might surprise you.
534
00:22:30,167 --> 00:22:31,634
Thank you.
535
00:22:33,537 --> 00:22:34,871
His Highness
Sheik Nasser Al-Fayed
536
00:22:34,873 --> 00:22:36,239
is making an appearance?
537
00:22:36,241 --> 00:22:37,941
Supposedly.
538
00:22:37,943 --> 00:22:39,409
Nasser is an emir.
539
00:22:39,411 --> 00:22:41,411
He's a member of the royal
family of Al Qasr
540
00:22:41,413 --> 00:22:43,413
in the United Arab Emirates.
541
00:22:43,415 --> 00:22:45,248
He's a black sheep.
He's not trusted
542
00:22:45,250 --> 00:22:47,450
with state business,
like his brothers.
543
00:22:47,452 --> 00:22:51,054
He's also got the most expensive
apiary on the planet.
544
00:22:51,056 --> 00:22:53,423
State-of-the-art hives.
He's a recluse.
545
00:22:53,425 --> 00:22:55,992
Rumors on BeeCircuit.com
are that he never leaves
546
00:22:55,994 --> 00:22:58,161
his family's estate.
Well, I wouldn't, either.
547
00:22:58,163 --> 00:23:02,098
He has almost 1,000 species.
Uh, we were surprised
548
00:23:02,100 --> 00:23:04,000
he RSVP'd, but I guess
he made the trip,
549
00:23:04,002 --> 00:23:06,135
'cause he asked for a car
service to pick him up
550
00:23:06,137 --> 00:23:07,937
in the city tonight.
Staying here in New York?
551
00:23:07,939 --> 00:23:09,872
The Cardiff. Downtown.
552
00:23:12,109 --> 00:23:14,077
You keep checking your watch.
553
00:23:14,079 --> 00:23:17,080
Yeah. I forgot how long it
takes to get over the river.
554
00:23:17,082 --> 00:23:18,548
I managed to get a copy of
555
00:23:18,550 --> 00:23:20,216
the five-one's
property room log book.
556
00:23:20,218 --> 00:23:22,719
I'm supposed to meet
a handwriting expert in 30 minutes.
557
00:23:22,721 --> 00:23:24,320
He's gonna tell me
whether or not
558
00:23:24,322 --> 00:23:27,156
Ann Vescey has forged
any signatures in it.
559
00:23:27,158 --> 00:23:29,058
You cohabitate with
one of the foremost
560
00:23:29,060 --> 00:23:31,194
forensic document examiners
on the planet.
561
00:23:31,196 --> 00:23:32,996
You might have saved
yourself the expense.
562
00:23:32,998 --> 00:23:35,231
You're not supposed to know
any of this, remember?
563
00:23:35,233 --> 00:23:36,799
Well, should you require
a second opinion,
564
00:23:36,801 --> 00:23:38,501
I'll be at the Cardiff.
565
00:23:38,503 --> 00:23:40,036
Oh, so you're looking
into that sheik, right?
566
00:23:40,038 --> 00:23:41,237
He's loaded.
567
00:23:41,239 --> 00:23:43,106
So if he wanted money
for research,
568
00:23:43,108 --> 00:23:44,807
why couldn't he just
use his own?
569
00:23:44,809 --> 00:23:45,975
You're right-- Nasser Al-Fayed
570
00:23:45,977 --> 00:23:47,710
and his family
are indeed loaded.
571
00:23:47,712 --> 00:23:49,412
They stay that way thanks
to their many business holdings.
572
00:23:49,414 --> 00:23:52,281
For example, they own several
agribusinesses in Turkey,
573
00:23:52,283 --> 00:23:55,084
which would benefit greatly
if New York's apple orchards
574
00:23:55,086 --> 00:23:56,953
were to suffer
from underpollination.
575
00:23:56,955 --> 00:23:58,921
Hm.
576
00:23:58,923 --> 00:24:03,026
I guess I could think of worse
reason to kill 100 million bees.
577
00:24:03,028 --> 00:24:04,861
Are you sure?
578
00:24:04,863 --> 00:24:08,631
Look at the bold garlands.
The-the-the short, nubby arcades
579
00:24:08,633 --> 00:24:10,566
in the N's.
580
00:24:10,568 --> 00:24:12,335
Same hand, no question.
581
00:24:12,337 --> 00:24:15,371
Not what you wanted
to hear, is it?
582
00:24:15,373 --> 00:24:18,174
To be honest, I'm not really
sure what I wanted to hear.
583
00:24:20,378 --> 00:24:22,545
Excuse me.
584
00:24:26,417 --> 00:24:28,184
Hey.
Did you talk to the sheik?
585
00:24:28,186 --> 00:24:31,120
I did not.
No one's seen him in 24 hours.
586
00:24:31,122 --> 00:24:32,622
Did he check out?
587
00:24:32,624 --> 00:24:34,123
Not exactly.
588
00:24:34,125 --> 00:24:36,826
Yesterday morning,
guests on this floor
589
00:24:36,828 --> 00:24:40,663
were questioned by panicked
Arab men wearing suits.
590
00:24:40,665 --> 00:24:42,799
Mr. Al-Fayed's bodyguards
591
00:24:42,801 --> 00:24:45,134
were trying and failing
to locate him.
592
00:24:45,136 --> 00:24:46,602
This was troubling,
593
00:24:46,604 --> 00:24:48,571
so I availed myself
of a maid's key card
594
00:24:48,573 --> 00:24:51,207
to have a look
around his suite.
595
00:24:51,209 --> 00:24:53,543
I'm now reasonably certain
596
00:24:53,545 --> 00:24:55,745
the emir has been kidnapped.
597
00:25:02,403 --> 00:25:04,431
I was told you needed
my assistance
598
00:25:04,432 --> 00:25:06,332
in contacting Sheik Nasser.
599
00:25:06,538 --> 00:25:07,538
Now this gentleman says
600
00:25:07,539 --> 00:25:08,939
that he has been
kidnapped.
601
00:25:08,941 --> 00:25:10,240
You'll have to excuse
my colleague,
602
00:25:10,242 --> 00:25:12,075
uh, Mr. Al Shamsi.
603
00:25:12,077 --> 00:25:15,545
The NYPD isn't ready
to go that far.
604
00:25:15,547 --> 00:25:18,215
For now, we consider this
a missing person's case.
605
00:25:18,217 --> 00:25:20,150
We were hoping that you would
be able put us in touch
606
00:25:20,152 --> 00:25:21,785
with the sheik's
security detail.
607
00:25:21,787 --> 00:25:24,855
One of his guards,
Rasheed Musharakh,
608
00:25:24,857 --> 00:25:27,057
is of particular
interest to us.
609
00:25:27,059 --> 00:25:28,291
Why?
610
00:25:28,293 --> 00:25:30,727
Because we feel
he may be responsible.
611
00:25:30,729 --> 00:25:32,429
Every guest on
the sheik's floor
612
00:25:32,431 --> 00:25:33,930
was questioned.
A few remembered
613
00:25:33,932 --> 00:25:35,365
a guard stationed
614
00:25:35,367 --> 00:25:37,367
outside his door
two nights ago-- Rasheed.
615
00:25:37,369 --> 00:25:39,302
The next day, when all the
other guards were rushing
616
00:25:39,304 --> 00:25:41,505
around in a panic,
Rasheed was nowhere to be seen.
617
00:25:41,507 --> 00:25:43,940
And now he just
cannot be found.
618
00:25:43,942 --> 00:25:46,410
And this hearsay
is the basis of your contention
619
00:25:46,412 --> 00:25:48,111
that Mr. Musharakh absconded
620
00:25:48,113 --> 00:25:50,680
with his charge?
There was no blood at the scene,
621
00:25:50,682 --> 00:25:52,049
no sign of a struggle.
622
00:25:52,051 --> 00:25:53,717
But then, there
wouldn't be if Rasheed
623
00:25:53,719 --> 00:25:56,086
had just walked him
out of a fire exit.
624
00:25:56,088 --> 00:25:58,488
Well, nor would there be
if he just checked out
625
00:25:58,490 --> 00:26:00,357
and found
alternate accommodations.
626
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,059
A possibility.
627
00:26:02,061 --> 00:26:04,861
If he had not
abandoned his epinephrine
628
00:26:04,863 --> 00:26:06,596
with the rest
of his toiletries.
629
00:26:06,598 --> 00:26:08,732
It's prescribed for
a deathly peanut allergy
630
00:26:08,734 --> 00:26:11,601
and I doubt he would willfully
travel without it.
631
00:26:11,803 --> 00:26:13,103
Do you have
numbers for either
632
00:26:13,105 --> 00:26:15,205
of them--
something we could trace?
633
00:26:15,207 --> 00:26:16,740
I'm afraid
it would be impossible
634
00:26:16,742 --> 00:26:18,575
to provide you
with such information.
635
00:26:18,577 --> 00:26:19,342
Why is that?
636
00:26:19,344 --> 00:26:21,044
Well, as you said,
637
00:26:21,046 --> 00:26:23,413
we can't say for certain
a crime has been committed.
638
00:26:23,415 --> 00:26:25,181
Our U.N. mission
does not exist
639
00:26:25,183 --> 00:26:27,450
to strong-arm our citizens
640
00:26:27,452 --> 00:26:29,219
into American police stations.
641
00:26:29,221 --> 00:26:32,122
A more likely explanation is
that your government has already
642
00:26:32,124 --> 00:26:34,624
commenced negotiations
for the sheik's safe return.
643
00:26:34,626 --> 00:26:38,662
On that point, among others,
you are entirely mistaken.
644
00:26:39,964 --> 00:26:41,064
What I wish to know is why
645
00:26:41,066 --> 00:26:42,098
you sought an audience
646
00:26:42,100 --> 00:26:43,266
with the sheik to begin with.
647
00:26:43,268 --> 00:26:45,435
We have questions
regarding a plan
648
00:26:45,437 --> 00:26:49,306
to foment colony collapse
disorder here in New York.
649
00:26:49,308 --> 00:26:52,909
Are you actually suggesting that
a member of our royal family
650
00:26:52,911 --> 00:26:55,512
is involved in a plot
to kill American...
651
00:26:55,514 --> 00:26:57,213
bees?
652
00:26:59,717 --> 00:27:02,152
And so this meeting
has come to an ignoble end.
653
00:27:02,154 --> 00:27:04,154
Please, Mr. Al Shamsi,
654
00:27:04,156 --> 00:27:05,555
we are not accusing anyone.
655
00:27:05,557 --> 00:27:07,357
We just want
to talk to the sheik.
656
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:08,958
If you will excuse me.
657
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,428
I have a busy day
at the mission.
658
00:27:11,430 --> 00:27:12,896
I'll, uh...
I'll walk you out.
659
00:27:19,804 --> 00:27:22,272
Anyone ever tell you
you're not much of a statesman?
660
00:27:22,274 --> 00:27:24,741
Some statesmen have.
What was that in there?
661
00:27:24,743 --> 00:27:26,509
What makes you think that
they're already negotiating
662
00:27:26,511 --> 00:27:27,977
to get the sheik back?
663
00:27:27,979 --> 00:27:29,713
He didn't bat an eyelid
when I told him
664
00:27:29,715 --> 00:27:31,681
a member of the royal family
had been kidnapped.
665
00:27:31,683 --> 00:27:33,850
I don't believe
even the gifted diplomat
666
00:27:33,852 --> 00:27:35,318
could maintain
that kind of equanimity
667
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:36,686
unless his office
668
00:27:36,688 --> 00:27:38,121
had already been
contacted with demands.
669
00:27:38,123 --> 00:27:39,689
Makes sense, right?
670
00:27:39,691 --> 00:27:42,826
The kidnapper has already had
the sheik for 24 hours.
671
00:27:42,828 --> 00:27:44,928
If the plan was to
ransom him, why wait?
672
00:27:44,930 --> 00:27:47,330
What I'd like to know is what
the hell any of this has to do
673
00:27:47,332 --> 00:27:49,199
with Everett Keck
killing a bunch of bees.
674
00:27:49,201 --> 00:27:52,702
So you thought that the sheik
was his partner, right?
675
00:27:52,704 --> 00:27:54,304
It's a distinct possibility.
676
00:27:54,306 --> 00:27:56,506
How his abduction relates
to the colony collapse hoax--
677
00:27:56,508 --> 00:27:58,742
whether it relates at all--
is, at the moment,
678
00:27:58,744 --> 00:28:01,544
a Gordian knot of seemingly
unrelated threads.
679
00:28:01,546 --> 00:28:03,546
Well, let's put the bee thing
aside for now
680
00:28:03,548 --> 00:28:04,881
and find this Rashid guy.
681
00:28:04,883 --> 00:28:06,216
If he's got the sheik,
682
00:28:06,218 --> 00:28:07,684
chances are he's got
some answers, too.
683
00:28:07,686 --> 00:28:09,686
We'll see how the detective
is coming along.
684
00:28:09,688 --> 00:28:10,854
I need a minute.
685
00:28:12,690 --> 00:28:14,858
Can you talk?
686
00:28:17,728 --> 00:28:20,196
I take it you're done
looking into Ann Vescey?
687
00:28:20,198 --> 00:28:21,431
I am.
688
00:28:21,433 --> 00:28:22,966
And as it turns out,
689
00:28:22,968 --> 00:28:24,534
you couldn't ask
for a better replacement.
690
00:28:24,536 --> 00:28:26,669
Great boss, loved and respected
by all of her people.
691
00:28:26,671 --> 00:28:28,471
And as far as that
property room scandal,
692
00:28:28,473 --> 00:28:30,540
the only discrepancy in the log
693
00:28:30,542 --> 00:28:31,875
that wasn't accounted for
694
00:28:31,877 --> 00:28:33,743
was the work of
a female undercover,
695
00:28:33,745 --> 00:28:35,779
who has already taken
forced retirement, so...
696
00:28:35,781 --> 00:28:38,448
Congratulations,
if you want to move on.
697
00:28:38,450 --> 00:28:40,784
Uh... you'll be leaving the 11th
in good hands.
698
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:43,953
Hmm.
699
00:28:46,690 --> 00:28:48,124
Okay.
700
00:28:53,864 --> 00:28:55,365
You're having second thoughts?
701
00:29:00,771 --> 00:29:02,705
You know, I know a thing or two
702
00:29:02,707 --> 00:29:05,708
about big career changes.
703
00:29:05,710 --> 00:29:07,610
Maybe I can help.
704
00:29:07,612 --> 00:29:10,580
I love what we do.
705
00:29:10,582 --> 00:29:12,682
You, me, Marcus, Holmes,
706
00:29:12,684 --> 00:29:15,118
everyone--
what we do
707
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,387
for the city,
people that need our help.
708
00:29:17,389 --> 00:29:20,723
It's not just some report
that shows up on my desk.
709
00:29:20,725 --> 00:29:22,325
I see it.
710
00:29:23,727 --> 00:29:26,262
I'm a part of this.
711
00:29:28,766 --> 00:29:30,900
Whatever decision you make,
712
00:29:30,902 --> 00:29:33,470
I have no doubt
it'll be the right one.
713
00:29:37,875 --> 00:29:39,976
That's right. We've been calling
currency exchanges
714
00:29:39,978 --> 00:29:42,245
all over the city,
looking for Mr. Musharakh.
715
00:29:43,581 --> 00:29:45,248
Well, we don't know
the guy he kidnapped
716
00:29:45,250 --> 00:29:47,884
is traveling with UAE Dirhams,
but he's a sheik.
717
00:29:47,886 --> 00:29:51,588
"Stands to reason" is how
one of my colleagues put it.
718
00:29:51,590 --> 00:29:54,123
Yeah, okay.
Thanks.
719
00:29:54,125 --> 00:29:55,992
No luck on Staten Island?
720
00:29:55,994 --> 00:29:58,595
Not a high destination for
vacationing emirs, apparently.
721
00:29:58,597 --> 00:30:00,363
Not on vacation.
722
00:30:00,365 --> 00:30:03,633
Yeah, well, I'm starting to feel
like a telemarketer here.
723
00:30:04,702 --> 00:30:05,935
I may have something.
724
00:30:05,937 --> 00:30:08,004
Atlas Exchange in Parkchester.
725
00:30:08,006 --> 00:30:09,772
A clerk there saw a man
726
00:30:09,774 --> 00:30:11,074
matching Rashid's description
727
00:30:11,076 --> 00:30:13,576
come in with $20,000 Dirhams
last night.
728
00:30:15,312 --> 00:30:17,814
Well, the detective and I
will investigate posthaste.
729
00:30:17,816 --> 00:30:18,982
Why do you get to go?
730
00:30:18,984 --> 00:30:20,917
Because I stood up first.
731
00:30:20,919 --> 00:30:23,152
And as tiresome as calling
these establishments may be,
732
00:30:23,154 --> 00:30:24,854
one of us has
to finish the list.
733
00:30:24,856 --> 00:30:26,736
We can't put all our eggs
in one basket, can we?
734
00:30:31,328 --> 00:30:33,329
I've interviewed blind men who
were better witnesses than that.
735
00:30:33,331 --> 00:30:35,465
Three of them.
No, four.
736
00:30:35,467 --> 00:30:38,134
Can't fault the owner for having
a broken surveillance system.
737
00:30:38,136 --> 00:30:39,469
Of course I could.
738
00:30:39,471 --> 00:30:40,737
If it had been broken.
739
00:30:40,739 --> 00:30:43,139
Footage was black.
740
00:30:43,141 --> 00:30:44,874
That man's fleecing
his customers.
741
00:30:44,876 --> 00:30:47,510
He wiped the tape himself when
he heard we were en route.
742
00:30:47,512 --> 00:30:50,179
Didn't want to hand us
a record of his crimes.
743
00:30:52,783 --> 00:30:54,183
Holmes.
744
00:30:54,185 --> 00:30:56,686
Indulge me a moment, would you?
745
00:30:56,688 --> 00:30:58,321
Yeah, that, uh...
746
00:30:58,323 --> 00:30:59,822
that might have been
the guy who was in here.
747
00:30:59,824 --> 00:31:01,891
Really?
Yeah.
748
00:31:01,893 --> 00:31:03,226
Because the watch
in this photograph,
749
00:31:03,228 --> 00:31:04,527
the same one
that you have
750
00:31:04,529 --> 00:31:05,962
on display here,
751
00:31:05,964 --> 00:31:07,564
could lift 100
752
00:31:07,566 --> 00:31:09,265
of Nasser Al-Fayed's
countrymen out of poverty,
753
00:31:09,267 --> 00:31:10,934
and he's probably got
a drawer full of them,
754
00:31:10,936 --> 00:31:13,403
so I doubt that he pawned
this one here in the Bronx.
755
00:31:13,405 --> 00:31:15,638
You sure you didn't
buy it off this guy?
756
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,307
He was selling off
the sheik's assets
757
00:31:17,309 --> 00:31:19,175
up and down this block
last night.
758
00:31:19,177 --> 00:31:21,978
- I can't be sure. Uh...
- Look, man,
759
00:31:21,980 --> 00:31:24,213
we don't care if you didn't ask
for proof of ownership.
760
00:31:25,617 --> 00:31:26,883
Yeah, this was the guy,
right here.
761
00:31:26,885 --> 00:31:29,018
Yeah, he brought in the watch.
762
00:31:29,020 --> 00:31:31,187
How much he take for it?
Six.
763
00:31:31,189 --> 00:31:32,655
And a laptop in trade.
764
00:31:34,425 --> 00:31:35,825
Now, I hope you're
not gonna tell us
765
00:31:35,827 --> 00:31:37,493
your surveillance
system's broken.
766
00:31:37,495 --> 00:31:39,629
No. What, are you kidding?
I've been robbed
767
00:31:39,631 --> 00:31:41,297
ten times in
the last couple years.
768
00:31:41,299 --> 00:31:42,665
These cameras stop working,
so do I.
769
00:31:42,667 --> 00:31:44,400
You mind getting the tape
from last night for us?
770
00:31:44,402 --> 00:31:45,835
I think we can do
better than a tape.
771
00:31:45,837 --> 00:31:48,371
There's anti-theft
tracking software
772
00:31:48,373 --> 00:31:49,939
on all the electronic
goods here.
773
00:31:49,941 --> 00:31:51,975
Well, like I said,
we've had robberies.
774
00:31:51,977 --> 00:31:55,545
Do you deactivate the software
once a sale is made?
775
00:31:55,547 --> 00:31:57,547
...and Chamberlain
will send it forward,
776
00:31:57,549 --> 00:31:58,549
down the right side.
777
00:31:58,550 --> 00:32:00,350
Alvarez there to collect.
778
00:32:00,352 --> 00:32:02,318
But no,
Muncie powers him off it,
779
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,287
and there's no foul; Alvarez--
780
00:32:05,590 --> 00:32:07,824
Hands up!
Get on the ground, now!
781
00:32:07,826 --> 00:32:08,891
Give me your hands!
782
00:32:08,893 --> 00:32:10,493
Clear!
783
00:32:10,495 --> 00:32:12,028
There wasn't any sign
of the sheik?
784
00:32:12,030 --> 00:32:13,529
Nope.
785
00:32:13,531 --> 00:32:15,732
Still no answer
at the UAE's mission.
786
00:32:15,734 --> 00:32:17,200
Nobody knows anything,
787
00:32:17,202 --> 00:32:18,701
and Rashid's got a bridge
he wants to sell us.
788
00:32:18,703 --> 00:32:19,969
What do you mean?
789
00:32:19,971 --> 00:32:21,604
Rashid...
790
00:32:21,606 --> 00:32:23,172
tell these people
what you told me.
791
00:32:23,174 --> 00:32:25,742
What?
That's I'm innocent?
792
00:32:25,744 --> 00:32:26,809
I told this man
793
00:32:26,811 --> 00:32:27,844
I did not take the sheik.
794
00:32:27,846 --> 00:32:29,779
I don't know anything.
795
00:32:29,781 --> 00:32:31,748
Well, we might as well get a full
account of what you don't know,
796
00:32:31,750 --> 00:32:33,516
so let's start at
the beginning, shall we?
797
00:32:33,518 --> 00:32:35,885
Are you aware
of a plot to spread
798
00:32:35,887 --> 00:32:37,220
colony collapse disorder
in New York?
799
00:32:37,222 --> 00:32:38,254
Colony what?
800
00:32:38,256 --> 00:32:40,023
Do the names Everett Keck
801
00:32:40,025 --> 00:32:41,658
and Calvin Barnes
mean anything to you?
802
00:32:41,660 --> 00:32:42,660
No.
803
00:32:42,661 --> 00:32:44,127
All I know is simple:
804
00:32:44,129 --> 00:32:46,229
Two nights ago, I was assigned
to the emir's door.
805
00:32:46,231 --> 00:32:48,665
He was inside, with a...
806
00:32:48,667 --> 00:32:50,767
a prostitute.
807
00:32:50,769 --> 00:32:52,101
His taste.
808
00:32:52,103 --> 00:32:54,937
Blonde. Tall.
809
00:32:54,939 --> 00:32:56,973
A beauty mark above the lip.
810
00:32:56,975 --> 00:32:58,875
I never left my post,
811
00:32:58,877 --> 00:33:01,110
but in the morning,
they were both gone.
812
00:33:01,112 --> 00:33:02,712
Vanished
into thin air.
813
00:33:02,714 --> 00:33:05,448
I only ran because
I know it makes no sense.
814
00:33:05,450 --> 00:33:07,283
The sheik was
my responsibility.
815
00:33:07,285 --> 00:33:08,985
If you turn me over,
816
00:33:08,987 --> 00:33:11,254
I'll be lucky to be buried
with my head.
817
00:33:11,256 --> 00:33:12,889
We can't promise
you anything.
818
00:33:12,891 --> 00:33:15,892
But the NYPD can petition
the DA for lenience
819
00:33:15,894 --> 00:33:17,994
and refugee status
for helpful witnesses.
820
00:33:17,996 --> 00:33:20,396
Hold up. You're buying this?
821
00:33:20,398 --> 00:33:22,432
I said earlier
this case was a Gordian knot.
822
00:33:22,434 --> 00:33:24,267
This man has just given us
a sword
823
00:33:24,269 --> 00:33:26,002
with which to cut it.
824
00:33:26,004 --> 00:33:28,738
When he says the sheik
and his courtesan vanished
825
00:33:28,740 --> 00:33:30,540
into thin air,
I believe him.
826
00:33:30,542 --> 00:33:35,478
I also think
I know where they materialized.
827
00:33:42,337 --> 00:33:44,211
This is from BeeCircuit.com.
828
00:33:44,212 --> 00:33:46,546
It's a thread about the
evolution of leafcutter bees.
829
00:33:46,548 --> 00:33:48,481
Why are you showing this to me?
830
00:33:48,483 --> 00:33:50,149
Page four,
831
00:33:50,151 --> 00:33:53,236
post 103.
832
00:33:53,336 --> 00:33:55,224
You'll see the moment
that you decided to lure
833
00:33:55,225 --> 00:33:58,092
Sheik Nasser Al-Fayed
to the United States.
834
00:33:58,094 --> 00:33:59,861
You proposed a meeting
in person.
835
00:33:59,863 --> 00:34:02,397
This? This was
just me being nice.
836
00:34:02,399 --> 00:34:05,433
So nice he invited you
to tour his hives in Al Qasr.
837
00:34:05,435 --> 00:34:07,268
"I'll fly you in.
Ticket for one.
838
00:34:07,270 --> 00:34:08,837
You can't bring
your husband."
839
00:34:08,839 --> 00:34:10,438
I turned him down
in the next post.
840
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,240
Probably because you knew
it would be easier
841
00:34:12,242 --> 00:34:15,310
to abduct and ransom him here,
away from his family compound.
842
00:34:15,312 --> 00:34:16,188
What?
843
00:34:16,212 --> 00:34:17,813
Three nights ago,
he disappeared,
844
00:34:17,814 --> 00:34:20,181
shortly after his guards
let a prostitute,
845
00:34:20,183 --> 00:34:22,984
matching your description,
into his hotel suite.
846
00:34:22,986 --> 00:34:24,786
Please tell me you didn't ask me
to come here
847
00:34:24,788 --> 00:34:27,288
just because I got some unwanted
attention on a message board.
848
00:34:27,290 --> 00:34:29,757
You gave as good as you got.
Privately, of course.
849
00:34:29,759 --> 00:34:32,126
I'm friendly with the moderator
of BeeCircuit.com.
850
00:34:32,128 --> 00:34:34,295
You deleted
your private messages,
851
00:34:34,297 --> 00:34:36,030
but he was able to dredge these
852
00:34:36,032 --> 00:34:37,599
off the server.
853
00:34:37,601 --> 00:34:39,601
There are hundreds of messages.
854
00:34:39,603 --> 00:34:41,336
A dozen invitations to New York.
855
00:34:41,338 --> 00:34:42,871
You even dyed your hair blonde
856
00:34:42,873 --> 00:34:44,539
after you found out
that's what he likes.
857
00:34:44,541 --> 00:34:47,542
You were quite eager
to show off your new look.
858
00:34:50,846 --> 00:34:52,947
No.
859
00:34:52,949 --> 00:34:54,782
I, uh...
860
00:34:54,784 --> 00:34:56,551
actually hadn't seen these.
861
00:34:56,553 --> 00:34:59,053
But I was
aware of them.
862
00:34:59,055 --> 00:35:03,291
Tara told me about
the... flirtation.
863
00:35:03,293 --> 00:35:06,427
But that's-that's all
in the past now.
864
00:35:06,429 --> 00:35:08,229
Our relationship is great.
865
00:35:08,231 --> 00:35:09,030
Really?
866
00:35:09,032 --> 00:35:10,431
Yeah. We just booked
867
00:35:10,433 --> 00:35:11,966
a second honeymoon in Vietnam.
868
00:35:11,968 --> 00:35:14,402
A non-extradition country.
How heartwarming.
869
00:35:14,404 --> 00:35:16,271
And all it took
to bring you closer together
870
00:35:16,273 --> 00:35:18,239
was a kidnapping
and an attempted murder.
871
00:35:18,241 --> 00:35:20,708
So Griffin is in on it with me?
872
00:35:20,710 --> 00:35:22,844
Someone had to work the winch.
What winch?
873
00:35:22,846 --> 00:35:24,846
The one that was attached
to the balcony railing
874
00:35:24,848 --> 00:35:26,714
above the sheik's room.
875
00:35:26,716 --> 00:35:28,850
Someone had to work it
to haul you both up,
876
00:35:28,852 --> 00:35:30,451
away from Nasser's guards.
877
00:35:30,453 --> 00:35:31,586
It wasn't the third member
878
00:35:31,588 --> 00:35:33,254
of your cabal, Everett Keck.
879
00:35:33,256 --> 00:35:34,756
He'd been murdered
the day before.
880
00:35:34,758 --> 00:35:36,558
The guy
who killed all those bees?
881
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,693
Oh, so we're part
of that thing now, too?
882
00:35:38,695 --> 00:35:40,728
Your online seduction
was not sufficient.
883
00:35:40,730 --> 00:35:42,797
The sheik was unwilling
to leave his kingdom.
884
00:35:42,799 --> 00:35:45,199
So, knowing
that his first passion was bees,
885
00:35:45,201 --> 00:35:48,102
you set in motion
an apiary apocalypse.
886
00:35:48,104 --> 00:35:51,105
Everett Keck caused a spike
in CCD so drastic
887
00:35:51,107 --> 00:35:53,841
that the sheik had no choice
but to come to your summit.
888
00:35:53,843 --> 00:35:56,945
Killing bees
to lure an oddball sheik.
889
00:35:56,947 --> 00:35:58,646
Really?
890
00:35:58,648 --> 00:36:01,482
I admit, it's a plan
almost too deranged
891
00:36:01,484 --> 00:36:04,619
to describe out loud, and yet...
892
00:36:04,621 --> 00:36:06,154
it worked.
893
00:36:06,156 --> 00:36:07,388
Eventually.
894
00:36:07,390 --> 00:36:09,324
Only real speed bump
was Calvin Barnes.
895
00:36:09,326 --> 00:36:11,626
He was catching on to Keck,
896
00:36:11,628 --> 00:36:14,028
so while Keck alibied himself
in Connecticut,
897
00:36:14,030 --> 00:36:15,663
you ambushed Barnes in his home,
898
00:36:15,665 --> 00:36:17,332
and shot him up
with potassium chloride
899
00:36:17,334 --> 00:36:18,933
to give him a heart attack.
900
00:36:18,935 --> 00:36:20,501
I've never seen that man before.
901
00:36:20,503 --> 00:36:23,237
And I didn't do any
of the things you say I did.
902
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:26,107
You should know we've got you
and your husband on video,
903
00:36:26,109 --> 00:36:28,710
checking into the sheik's hotel
the night he disappeared.
904
00:36:28,712 --> 00:36:30,778
We know you were in the
room right above him.
905
00:36:30,780 --> 00:36:32,313
And we found damage
to the railing
906
00:36:32,315 --> 00:36:33,681
where the winch was attached.
907
00:36:33,683 --> 00:36:34,916
You've gone back
908
00:36:34,918 --> 00:36:36,417
to your natural color.
909
00:36:36,419 --> 00:36:37,952
Did you do that
after the kidnapping
910
00:36:37,954 --> 00:36:39,754
to avoid being identified?
911
00:36:42,458 --> 00:36:44,659
Has anyone tried calling him?
912
00:36:44,661 --> 00:36:46,461
Has anyone tried calling who?
913
00:36:46,463 --> 00:36:47,528
The sheik.
914
00:36:47,530 --> 00:36:48,796
I mean, sure,
915
00:36:48,798 --> 00:36:50,665
Griffin and I were
at the same hotel.
916
00:36:50,667 --> 00:36:52,333
That's not a crime.
917
00:36:52,335 --> 00:36:54,135
You've obviously done a lot
of work here.
918
00:36:54,137 --> 00:36:57,038
But has anyone actually talked
to Nasser?
919
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:58,940
Kidnapped men are difficult
to get hold of.
920
00:36:58,942 --> 00:37:00,541
Well, I think
you should keep trying.
921
00:37:00,543 --> 00:37:02,543
In fact, I think you
should try right now.
922
00:37:02,545 --> 00:37:06,514
Maybe you could spare yourself
any more embarrassment.
923
00:37:07,850 --> 00:37:09,150
The United Arab Emirates
924
00:37:09,152 --> 00:37:11,686
and their spokesman,
Mr. Al Shamsi,
925
00:37:11,688 --> 00:37:14,389
would like us to know
that Sheik Nasser is resting
926
00:37:14,391 --> 00:37:18,593
on his plane home and is
unavailable for questioning.
927
00:37:18,595 --> 00:37:20,061
They paid the ransom.
928
00:37:20,063 --> 00:37:22,363
But they're claiming
he was never taken.
929
00:37:22,365 --> 00:37:24,432
Why?
Because if word gets out
930
00:37:24,434 --> 00:37:25,867
they negotiate with kidnappers,
931
00:37:25,869 --> 00:37:27,368
it'll be open season
on their people.
932
00:37:27,370 --> 00:37:29,237
Cheaper in
the long run
933
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:31,673
to pretend none of this ever happened.
Not to mention
934
00:37:31,675 --> 00:37:33,675
less embarrassing.
They also said
935
00:37:33,677 --> 00:37:35,943
this was the last time
they'd take any of my calls.
936
00:37:35,945 --> 00:37:37,211
Perhaps it's time
937
00:37:37,213 --> 00:37:39,147
to involve DHS.
938
00:37:39,149 --> 00:37:41,816
See if we can get a warrant
to seek out any large transfers
939
00:37:41,818 --> 00:37:43,851
emanating from Al Qasr.
940
00:37:43,853 --> 00:37:46,254
We may be able to tell whether
the Parkers secured their bounty
941
00:37:46,256 --> 00:37:49,157
in Switzerland or the Cayman Islands.
Why?
942
00:37:49,159 --> 00:37:51,325
Justice?
I'm familiar with the concept,
943
00:37:51,327 --> 00:37:53,528
but it's gonna be difficult
to prosecute a crime
944
00:37:53,530 --> 00:37:56,264
where the victim is gonna swear
it didn't take place.
945
00:37:56,266 --> 00:37:57,865
They didn't just kidnap
the sheik.
946
00:37:57,867 --> 00:37:59,967
There's Calvin Barnes,
the bees...
947
00:37:59,969 --> 00:38:02,603
Then get me some proof
of any of it.
948
00:38:02,605 --> 00:38:06,140
'Cause as it stands now,
I got to cut the Parkers loose.
949
00:38:06,142 --> 00:38:08,242
If you do, they'll be on
the next flight to Haiphong.
950
00:38:08,244 --> 00:38:09,544
Then you
better hurry.
951
00:38:09,546 --> 00:38:11,279
'Cause I got no choice.
952
00:38:16,485 --> 00:38:18,820
Okay, those
are not evidence.
953
00:38:18,822 --> 00:38:20,188
Aren't they?
954
00:38:20,190 --> 00:38:22,924
Of low self-esteem? Definitely.
Of a crime...?
955
00:38:22,926 --> 00:38:25,059
What did the lab have to say
about the stray hairs found
956
00:38:25,061 --> 00:38:26,461
at Calvin Barnes's home?
957
00:38:26,463 --> 00:38:28,896
Most of them belonged
to his wife, a few to the dog,
958
00:38:28,898 --> 00:38:32,467
and there was one
that was not a match for anyone.
959
00:38:32,469 --> 00:38:34,102
It was dyed blonde.
Just like Tara Parker's hair.
960
00:38:34,104 --> 00:38:36,404
She was there
the night he was attacked.
961
00:38:36,406 --> 00:38:38,506
I would say we should get
a DNA sample to confirm,
962
00:38:38,508 --> 00:38:40,041
but what would be
the point?
963
00:38:40,043 --> 00:38:41,676
When there's no proof
that a crime was committed,
964
00:38:41,678 --> 00:38:43,177
and as far as the world
is concerned,
965
00:38:43,179 --> 00:38:45,546
Calvin Barnes
just had a heart attack.
966
00:38:45,548 --> 00:38:47,749
And as far as Sheik Nasser is concerned,
he was never kidnapped.
967
00:38:47,751 --> 00:38:50,718
The Parkers have a knack
for committing crimes
968
00:38:50,720 --> 00:38:53,521
that cannot be
identified as such.
969
00:38:53,523 --> 00:38:55,556
Probably why they're gonna
spend the rest of their days
970
00:38:55,558 --> 00:38:58,292
sipping drinks on
a Vietnamese beach.
971
00:38:58,294 --> 00:39:01,395
They're not good-- they're lucky.
I don't disagree.
972
00:39:01,397 --> 00:39:03,331
Otherwise Everett Keck
would still be alive,
973
00:39:03,333 --> 00:39:05,233
and they'd have to split
their money three ways.
974
00:39:05,235 --> 00:39:08,402
As it is, they get
to keep the whole pot.
975
00:39:10,472 --> 00:39:12,840
You're not seriously
gonna leave those up all night.
976
00:39:19,581 --> 00:39:21,749
Everett Keck.
977
00:39:21,751 --> 00:39:23,885
The day he died, he was wearing
a T-shirt that said,
978
00:39:23,887 --> 00:39:26,287
"Buddhists do it
to attain Inner Peace."
979
00:39:26,289 --> 00:39:28,089
So?
His autopsy report
980
00:39:28,091 --> 00:39:30,992
also revealed he'd taken Viagra
the night before.
981
00:39:30,994 --> 00:39:32,627
Okay, I'll bite.
982
00:39:32,629 --> 00:39:34,495
What does Buddhism have to do
with erectile dysfunction?
983
00:39:34,497 --> 00:39:37,398
If I'm right, Watson,
everything we want it to.
984
00:39:38,801 --> 00:39:40,935
Mrs. Parker, do you
understand your rights
985
00:39:40,937 --> 00:39:42,570
as they've been read to you?
986
00:39:42,572 --> 00:39:44,071
Yes.
987
00:39:44,073 --> 00:39:46,140
What I understand
is that you're desperate.
988
00:39:46,142 --> 00:39:47,708
Griff and I leave for
our trip tonight.
989
00:39:47,710 --> 00:39:49,010
You want to try to delay us.
990
00:39:49,012 --> 00:39:50,111
It's funny
you should mention Griff.
991
00:39:50,113 --> 00:39:51,345
He's the reason we're here.
992
00:39:51,347 --> 00:39:52,346
He gave you up this morning.
993
00:39:52,348 --> 00:39:53,748
Sure, he did.
994
00:39:53,750 --> 00:39:55,349
You don't believe us?
995
00:39:55,351 --> 00:39:56,784
I know how this works.
996
00:39:56,786 --> 00:39:58,686
Right now, some other cop
is arresting him,
997
00:39:58,688 --> 00:40:00,488
saying I gave him up.
998
00:40:00,490 --> 00:40:02,490
You want us to turn against
each other, but we won't.
999
00:40:02,492 --> 00:40:04,058
We didn't do anything.
1000
00:40:04,060 --> 00:40:05,326
But you did,
as a matter of fact.
1001
00:40:05,328 --> 00:40:07,028
You both got
master's degrees.
1002
00:40:07,030 --> 00:40:08,496
What are you talking about?
1003
00:40:08,498 --> 00:40:10,598
Well, you both have your
degrees in agriculture.
1004
00:40:12,367 --> 00:40:15,069
But this scarlet academic hood
that you're wearing
1005
00:40:15,071 --> 00:40:17,705
denotes a degree in theology.
1006
00:40:17,707 --> 00:40:20,174
It belongs to your lover,
Everett Keck.
1007
00:40:20,176 --> 00:40:21,943
Like many a theology major,
1008
00:40:21,945 --> 00:40:24,245
Keck ultimately had to find work
in another field.
1009
00:40:24,247 --> 00:40:26,647
So he put his minor
in entomology to good use,
1010
00:40:26,649 --> 00:40:28,316
joining the USDA.
1011
00:40:28,318 --> 00:40:29,684
Your husband knew
you were sending
1012
00:40:29,686 --> 00:40:30,918
racy pictures to Sheik Nasser.
1013
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:32,286
He was okay with that.
1014
00:40:32,288 --> 00:40:33,621
What he wasn't okay with
1015
00:40:33,623 --> 00:40:35,489
was you taking this one
at Keck's house,
1016
00:40:35,491 --> 00:40:37,425
wearing Keck's robe.
1017
00:40:37,427 --> 00:40:39,927
Until this morning, he'd never
taken a good look at this.
1018
00:40:39,929 --> 00:40:43,064
But when we were able
to procure this very robe
1019
00:40:43,066 --> 00:40:45,566
from Keck's residence,
along with dyed blonde hairs
1020
00:40:45,568 --> 00:40:47,735
from his shower and bed,
1021
00:40:47,737 --> 00:40:49,770
Griff became quite talkative.
1022
00:40:49,772 --> 00:40:51,539
You got away
with kidnapping the sheik.
1023
00:40:51,541 --> 00:40:54,008
You won't get away with
what you did to Calvin Barnes.
1024
00:40:54,010 --> 00:40:56,110
Or millions of bees.
1025
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:00,882
I don't understand.
1026
00:41:00,884 --> 00:41:03,918
You're giving this back?
1027
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:05,386
I can't take the promotion, Pat.
1028
00:41:05,388 --> 00:41:06,888
I'm grateful-- to you,
1029
00:41:06,890 --> 00:41:10,558
to the commissioner--
it's just not rig for me.
1030
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,093
Not right now.
1031
00:41:12,095 --> 00:41:13,527
Tommy, offers
1032
00:41:13,529 --> 00:41:15,196
like this don't come around
every day.
1033
00:41:15,198 --> 00:41:16,564
I get that. And I get
1034
00:41:16,566 --> 00:41:18,599
that one may not
come my way again.
1035
00:41:18,601 --> 00:41:20,301
But the truth is,
1036
00:41:20,303 --> 00:41:23,604
the 11th is where
I want to be.
1037
00:41:25,073 --> 00:41:28,075
Youngest detective in
the history of the 14th Squad.
1038
00:41:28,077 --> 00:41:30,578
Head of Major Case at 40.
1039
00:41:30,580 --> 00:41:32,713
Lacks ambition?
1040
00:41:32,715 --> 00:41:33,981
Am I missing something?
1041
00:41:33,983 --> 00:41:36,350
My ambition's being met.
1042
00:41:36,352 --> 00:41:38,286
Right here.
1043
00:41:41,089 --> 00:41:43,925
I guess you're right.
1044
00:41:43,927 --> 00:41:46,627
I should take this back.
1045
00:41:51,333 --> 00:41:54,368
Moves like this, Tommy--
people coming, people going--
1046
00:41:54,370 --> 00:41:56,637
they get made two ways:
1047
00:41:56,639 --> 00:42:00,408
Sometimes it's the carrot,
sometimes it's the stick.
1048
00:42:00,410 --> 00:42:02,610
What the hell
is that supposed to mean?
1049
00:42:02,612 --> 00:42:04,912
It means
I've been around a long time.
1050
00:42:04,914 --> 00:42:07,615
I think I know a lifeboat
when I see one.
1051
00:42:07,617 --> 00:42:10,718
Are you saying somebody wants me
off this desk?
1052
00:42:10,720 --> 00:42:12,853
I just know
that this came from on high.
1053
00:42:12,855 --> 00:42:15,923
It was something
that was supposed to happen.
1054
00:42:15,925 --> 00:42:18,726
Why?
1055
00:42:18,728 --> 00:42:23,764
Maybe there are problems in
the 11th you don't know about.
1056
00:42:23,766 --> 00:42:27,935
Maybe Ann Vescey
has more friends than you do.
1057
00:42:28,837 --> 00:42:31,238
Or maybe I'm just wrong.
1058
00:42:31,240 --> 00:42:33,441
It has been known to happen.
1059
00:42:38,648 --> 00:42:41,316
Be happy here, Tommy.
1060
00:42:41,317 --> 00:42:43,918
Just... don't be comfortable.
