Transcript
00:00There are two kinds of folks who sit around thinking about how to kill people.
00:04Psychopaths and mystery writers.
00:06I'm the kind that pays better.
00:07Who am I?
00:08I'm Rick Castle.
00:09Castle.
00:10Castle.
00:10I really am ruggedly handsome, aren't I?
00:12Every writer needs inspiration, and I've found mine.
00:15Detective Kate Beckett.
00:16Beckett.
00:17Beckett.
00:17Nicky Heath.
00:18The character he's basing on you.
00:19And thanks to my friendship with the mayor, I get to be on her case.
00:22I'd be happy to let you spank me.
00:24And together we catch killers.
00:25Make a pretty good team, you know, like Starsky and Hutch.
00:28Turner and Hooch.
00:29She do remind me a little of the hoot.
00:30She do remind me a little of the hoot.
00:59Well, that was easy.
01:16All right.
01:17What do we do next?
01:18Set up your profile.
01:19Well, name, Martha Rogers.
01:22Sex, female, race.
01:25Colorblind.
01:27Why should I categorize myself?
01:29Shades of gray, darling.
01:30Age.
01:30Ageless.
01:31No, better yet.
01:32Timeless.
01:33Oh, you don't want to put that.
01:34It makes you sound like you belong in a museum.
01:36Oh, you have a point.
01:37Ah, I know.
01:38Type in old enough.
01:40Nice.
01:41What are you ladies doing?
01:42Alexis is assisting me in creating a MyFace account.
01:46I think you mean...
01:47Save your breath.
01:48I've been correcting her all morning.
01:49Well, it's MyFace, isn't it?
01:51It's not your face or someone else's face.
01:54I don't...
01:54Well, anyway.
01:56My fellow cast members have been raving about what fun it is, what a great networking tool
02:01it is, so here I am.
02:03And now you just need to select a photo for your profile page.
02:06Okay.
02:06Should we go dramatic or commercial or sassy?
02:13Don't you have anything from this century?
02:16Oh, you think the hair's a bit dated?
02:18Not exactly what I was getting at.
02:19I know what you were getting at.
02:21You're no spring chicken yourself, you know.
02:23Have you looked in the mirror lately?
02:24I have two words for you.
02:25Hairline and receding.
02:29Ah, made you look.
02:32She totally got you, Dad.
02:36Yes, Beckett.
02:37Either there's a dead body or you just want to hear my sultry voice.
02:41Dead body it is.
02:42Where?
02:45You got here fast, Castle.
02:46My side of town.
02:47So what do we got?
02:48May I?
02:49Be my guest.
02:50Our victim's name is Caleb Shamsky.
02:52Shamsky.
02:53Is that a name?
02:53Yeah, it's a name.
02:54And he was pulling a Kevin Bacon in Quicksilver when all of them.
02:57I'm sorry, what?
02:58Quicksilver.
03:00Kevin Bacon is a bike messenger who failed as a...
03:02Esposito, take him to school.
03:04The victim is Caleb Shamsky, an on-duty bike messenger.
03:07A masked suspect in a black four-door plows into him, killing him instantly.
03:11Then the suspect steals the messenger bag, jumps in his ride and jets off.
03:16See, that wasn't so hard.
03:17No, no, it's good.
03:18If you like the dull, non-best-seller version.
03:20I thought I gave it some flair.
03:22I'm assuming we have plenty of witnesses?
03:24Several.
03:24Three of them got the suspect's license plate number.
03:26Aw, man.
03:27It's like having a cheat code.
03:29You've got multiple witnesses and a license plate number.
03:31It's gonna take you all of, what, five minutes to solve it?
03:33I ran the suspect's plates.
03:34The car was reported stolen an hour ago.
03:36A masked man in a stolen car.
03:38Our thief planned this and obviously wanted what was ever in that messenger bag.
03:42Somewhere Vic was delivering a package or a box.
03:46Contact the courier company.
03:47I want to know what was in that bag.
03:48Whatever it was, it was important enough to kill the messenger.
03:52Sir?
03:52We got an APB out on the car, but Esposito and Ryan got nothing on the canvas.
03:56Do we know what was in the package?
03:57The courier company's looking into it right now.
03:59Whatever it was, somebody thought that it was worth killing for.
04:02Off the top of my head, I'm gonna go with nuclear launch codes,
04:05Dick Cheney's soul on its way to the devil.
04:07All good theories, Castle.
04:08All good theories.
04:10Um, sir?
04:12Are you okay?
04:13You seem a little distracted.
04:16No, I'm focused.
04:18Focused on the precinct being up for review.
04:20And our case closure rate being just under 1PP's new mandated minimum.
04:24Which, of course, doesn't take the budget cuts into consideration.
04:26Now, how the hell am I supposed to catch more bad guys with fewer detectives?
04:30Okay.
04:31The courier company said the Vic only had one package in his bag.
04:34Picked up from 2739 West 2nd, Apartment 3C.
04:37Sent by 1S Nidal Matar.
04:39I ran it through the system.
04:40There's a secure Nidal Matar on the terror watch list.
04:43Could be the same guy.
04:44Where was the package going?
04:45614 East 72nd.
04:46East 72nd.
04:47That's the 64 precinct.
04:48Sir, that could be an attack.
04:49I need a full tactical alert.
04:50How do I evacuate the building?
04:51I coordinate with Homeland Security.
04:52This is Detective Beckett.
04:53This is Captain Roy Montgomery.
04:54I need to speak your task force.
04:55I'm 12-15-41.
04:57Get ESU over to the pickup address immediately.
04:58All units on alert.
04:59Yeah, this is my governor.
05:00I told him to say.
05:02Where's Nidal Matar?
05:07Shakir Nidal Matar.
05:08Where is he?
05:09There's no Shakir Nidal Matar here.
05:12Only Sally Niedermeyer.
05:15Ma'am, did you send a package by bike courier this morning?
05:18Yes, I did.
05:20S. Nidal Matar.
05:22S. Niedermeyer.
05:24Some bozo at the courier company wrote the name wrong.
05:27Our bad.
05:28I'm gonna...
05:28We can...
05:29Yeah, we can fix this.
05:31Sorry.
05:31Sorry.
05:35Mrs. Niedermeyer, somebody stole the courier bag that your package was in,
05:39and in the course of the crime, a bike messenger was killed.
05:42Oh, that's terrible.
05:44Yeah, we're trying to figure out why they stole the bag.
05:47You sent it to the 64th Precinct, is that right?
05:50Yes.
05:51Could you tell us what was in the package?
05:52No.
05:53No?
05:54No.
05:55No, you don't want to, or no, you don't remember or know what's in the package?
06:00Yes.
06:01To the second part, the don't know part.
06:05Where'd you get the package?
06:06From my favorite nephew, Brady.
06:10Okay, where can we find Brady?
06:12In prison.
06:13Prison?
06:14Prison?
06:15When did he give you the package?
06:16Ten years ago, just before they sent him upstate, Brady came over, handed me the package,
06:23and then he said, Mima, take good care of this package, don't tell anyone about it,
06:30and never, ever open it.
06:33Then why all of a sudden would you messenger it?
06:35Brady called about 7.30 this morning and asked me to send it right away to the man it was addressed to.
06:43The man who arrested him ten years ago, Detective Roy Montgomery.
06:51It's Captain Roy Montgomery now.
06:53Oh.
06:54You know him.
06:56Yeah, he's our boss.
06:59The package was coming to me?
07:00Yeah.
07:00What's his name again?
07:01Brady Thompson.
07:03It was back when you were a detective with the 6-4.
07:05Oh, yeah, it's ringing some bells, but why would he send me a ten-year-old package?
07:08Esposito's on the phone with corrections.
07:09He's trying to get an interview.
07:10Do you recall anything at all about him?
07:13He killed a lady, uh, pushing robbery gone bad.
07:15Open and shut case.
07:16I think we even got a confession out of him.
07:17The aunt said that he was pretty insistent about getting the package directly to you.
07:21Do you know why that would be?
07:22You'd have to ask him.
07:24Not unless you perform a seance.
07:26He's dead.
07:27Got shanked in prison this morning.
07:28This morning?
07:29That's no coincidence.
07:30Have records pull everything from the old case.
07:34If memory serves, Brady was married when he went away.
07:37See if the wife is still a wife and if she knows anything.
07:39Becky, call a warden.
07:40I want to see what they know about Brady's murder.
07:41And I need copies of all his phone calls.
07:43I want to know exactly what he said to Aunt Sally and anyone else for that matter.
07:46Okay.
07:47Hey, Becky.
07:49Paisley Shemansky's here to see you.
07:51That's a bike messenger's sister.
07:54Excuse me.
07:54How does she do that?
08:16Better than anyone I know.
08:24Are you okay?
08:28My brother died trying to get something to me.
08:31No, I'm not okay.
08:41The prison sent over the last two phone calls Brady made.
08:44Can't I just put it in the mail?
08:47No, Aunt Sally, you gotta take it down to yourself.
08:49My hip's been acting up again.
08:51Then call a messenger service.
08:53I'll pay you, okay?
08:53All right.
08:55I'll take care of you.
08:57I've gotta go now, okay?
08:59Take care now, Brady.
09:01Love you.
09:02Love you too, Mamma.
09:04I gotta go.
09:07Nothing about what was in the package.
09:09At 7.23, he makes this phone call to his wife.
09:12Yes, I'll accept the charges.
09:13Val.
09:14Hey, babe.
09:15Val, listen to me.
09:16Remember what we talked about last time you visited?
09:19I remember.
09:20It's going down today.
09:21You and Jerry get out of the house now.
09:23Brady.
09:23There's no time to talk.
09:24Just go.
09:25Everything's going to be all right.
09:27Keep trying to kiss my dad, okay?
09:28I love you.
09:29I love you too.
09:31Bye.
09:32Brady was killed 45 minutes after those two phone calls.
09:35Yeah, but we don't have a why or a who.
09:37Or a how.
09:38It's related to your mystery package.
09:39Warden have any suspects?
09:41A whole prison yard full.
09:42He was shanked in the yard.
09:44There were no witnesses.
09:46Warden's less than optimistic about catching the killer.
09:48Brady have any beefs?
09:49Apparently he was the model prisoner.
09:51Then it must have been a hit.
09:52Order from the outside.
09:53By the same guy who killed our messenger.
09:56Any luck on tracking now Brady's wife?
09:58Big fat Zippo.
09:59But they left the apartment in a hurry.
10:00I pinged the cell phones, tracked the credit cards.
10:02She's off the grid.
10:03Maybe not completely.
10:05I just got off the phone with the son's school.
10:06According to the principal, Brady's kid misses class every Tuesday because he's got some kind of respiratory condition.
10:12Tomorrow's Tuesday.
10:12You get the doctor's name?
10:14It's set up on the office in the morning.
10:16I might get lucky.
10:18What you doing, mother?
10:20Working on your play?
10:22Oh, I wish I'd been bombarded with friend requests like a part-time job.
10:27And these exchanges are just ridiculous.
10:30Dot Ellison, who I have absolutely no desire to reconnect with, has just wasted 20 minutes of my life recounting the bravery of her cat passing a kidney stone.
10:42Well, it could have been worse.
10:44She could have sent you a video.
10:45Joining up with this fad was a terrible mistake.
10:48Nothing good comes from the internet.
10:50Nope.
10:51Just got another friend request.
10:52OMG.
10:53Chet Palliburn.
10:55Who's Chet Palliburn?
10:56Star athlete class president.
10:59Homecoming king.
11:00My high school sweetheart.
11:02And my first.
11:04I really didn't need to know that last part.
11:06Oh, oh, he sent a message with his request.
11:08I'm living in New York now and would love to see you.
11:11Martha, you haven't changed a bit.
11:14Oh, Chet Palliburn, can you believe it?
11:16And did you see that message?
11:18You do know that Chet's comments are based on a 20-year-old photo.
11:24Oh.
11:26Oh.
11:27Well, should I accept his friend request?
11:31I mean, the last time I laid eyes on him, I was 18 and now he sees this photo and now this and...
11:38What do I do?
11:40It's your call.
11:41There's always a dot under Kitty Cat's medical mysteries.
11:47Everything okay?
11:50Another dead end in the messenger case.
11:52Uniform's located the stolen car that ran him down, but CSU got buckets.
11:56No prints, no hairs.
11:58That's sounding more and more like a professional hit.
11:59Yeah.
12:00What about surveillance?
12:01Any cameras around where the car was done?
12:02Nah.
12:03Our masked man knew what he was doing.
12:05Well, at least our tip on the doctor paid off.
12:06Prison Vic's wife came in with her son first thing this morning.
12:09Captain and Beck are interviewing her now.
12:13I'm gonna go.
12:14I wouldn't do...
12:14Do you have any idea who killed him?
12:20We're working on it.
12:21Ms. Thompson, do you know anything about a package that your husband asked his Aunt Sally to send out foreign yesterday?
12:26Yeah.
12:28It was his insurance policy.
12:30He gave it to her when he went away.
12:32Insurance policy?
12:33It was proof he didn't kill the woman he went to jail for murdering.
12:36But he confessed.
12:37Well, he might have confessed, but he didn't do it.
12:39With all due respect, Ms. Thompson, half the men in prison will swear up and down they didn't do it.
12:43Do those men's wives get a package in the mail every month with $7,000 cash in it?
12:49Uh, your husband confessed to a murder he didn't commit for money?
12:52I know this will sound crazy, but we didn't know what else to do.
12:55Jarrett was born with a rare respiratory disease, and we didn't have the money or the insurance to get him the therapy he needed.
13:02If Brady hadn't done what he did, Jarrett wouldn't even be alive right now.
13:06Did Brady ever tell you who actually committed the murder he went away for?
13:09No.
13:09I don't even know if he knew who it was.
13:12Over ten years, you never asked who his contact was, who approached him, who was paying you?
13:15You just conveniently never bothered to ask?
13:17I asked, but Brady felt that the less I knew, the safer I would be.
13:21Even the packages didn't have a return address.
13:24Look, Captain, my husband was just killed.
13:28I'm telling you all I know.
13:29Okay, so what we know so far is that about four months ago, the payments to Brady started arriving late, short, and then finally, not at all.
13:40And according to the wife, that's when Brady decided to messenger over his insurance policy.
13:45That was supposed to prove his innocence.
13:47Well, Patsy, Brady had to be in communication with whoever was making payments.
13:50Prison should have a record of everyone Brady talked to.
13:52We already checked his phone logs.
13:53There's nothing there.
13:54How about email?
13:55We're running it down.
13:56Well, whatever Brady said, it worked.
13:58Payments started up again, then a month ago, nothing.
14:00I think maybe Brady got fed up with the situation.
14:03Figured if whoever he made the deal with wasn't holding up their end of the bargain, why was he?
14:06Then he calls up his aunt Sally, asks her to send the evidence that proves his innocence to the arresting officer.
14:11Is it possible someone was monitoring his calls?
14:13I mean, whoever killed our bike messenger had to have been tipped off.
14:15The package was in motion.
14:16The only people that monitor calls are prison staff.
14:18$7,000 a month for ten years is almost a million total.
14:22Whoever we're dealing with obviously has the means to buy somebody off.
14:25Get the duty roster from the prison.
14:27See who was working when Brady made his calls.
14:29Set up a protection detail for the wife and the kid.
14:31It's already done, sir.
14:39Captain, you had the confessions, the evidence.
14:41Anyone would have come to the same conclusion.
14:43I didn't push hard enough.
14:45I knew this case was off.
14:47Everything just fell into place so perfectly.
14:48Now what have we got?
14:49An innocent bystander with no connection to the killer.
14:52And without physical evidence, there's no way of tracking who was driving that car.
14:55And catching a break on a prison murder.
14:57That's a long shot, especially if you're dealing with a corrupt guard.
14:59Okay, but we still have the original murder from ten years ago.
15:02Everything started there.
15:03Two fresh bodies and you want to look at a murder ten years cold.
15:06Uh, when I'm writing a story, the beginning is always the hardest.
15:11But if you nail that, the rest of it could just fall into place.
15:15Castle, this is not one of your books.
15:16No, but it is a mystery.
15:18And all mysteries are the same.
15:20Motive, opportunity, cover-up, conscience.
15:23These murders today were to cover up one ten years ago.
15:26That's where your leads are going to be.
15:27Come on, Captain, what do you say?
15:29Let's take a little trip down memory lane.
15:33Olivia DeBiasi, 20 years old.
15:35Neighbors found her bludgeoned to death in her apartment.
15:38Hmm, there's some things missing from her apartment.
15:40Whoever killed her tried to make it look like a robbery gone wrong.
15:42There should be something in there about a handyman that we looked at for it.
15:45You know, he had a criminal record. He's worked in the building.
15:48If it was him, I'm in the wrong line of work.
15:50$7,000 a month for a handyman?
15:52We moved off him once we moved on Brady.
15:54An anonymous tip came in.
15:55It felt like a break at the time.
15:57Brought him in, leaned on him for, what, maybe a half hour before he broke?
16:01You know, it's funny.
16:01I never actually even looked at some of these reports.
16:03Because once the canvassing detectives turned him in,
16:05we already had Brady in custody.
16:07Well, it says here that Olivia went to a party earlier the night she was killed.
16:10It says here to Pearson Club.
16:12Pearson Club.
16:13That's high society. That's creme de la creme.
16:16My money goes in banks. Their money buys banks.
16:18Sir, listen to this.
16:20A waitress gave a statement saying that she saw Olivia having a heated argument with a man at the party.
16:25The blood thickens.
16:26Mm-hmm, there's no name, but according to the description she gave,
16:28he was in his mid-twenties, medium build, wearing a blue blazer and an orange striped tie.
16:32Ooh, I don't know about you guys, but I am getting a delicious millionaire playboy vibe here.
16:37A waitress was under the impression that he arrived with Olivia.
16:39Olivia's best friend was a gal that she worked with.
16:42Maybe she could tell us who Olivia hung out with.
16:44Perlmutter just finished reviewing Olivia's autopsy report from back in the day.
16:48He says he found something.
16:49You guys take tomorrow. I'll follow up on Olivia's friend.
16:52Thank you, sir.
16:52I've gone through Ms. Debbie Oste's files, and her autopsy was fairly limited.
16:58I assume when Brady confessed, the Emmy decided not to be thorough.
17:02Did he miss something?
17:03It's hard to say.
17:04What does your gut tell you?
17:05My gut tells me I'm hungry, but I'm not going to be able to eat until I'm done with the two of you,
17:10so why don't I just tell you what my keen Emmy training tells me?
17:13All right. Brady said he hit Olivia with a baseball bat.
17:16But look at these.
17:19When I look at these wounds and the skull fracture pattern, I'm just not seeing a baseball bat strike.
17:24Brady lied about killing her. He might have lied about what was used to do it.
17:28Can you determine how she was killed?
17:30I'd only be speculating.
17:31To do it properly, I'd have to x-ray the skull and examine the remains.
17:34You want to exhume the body?
17:35The only way to do it right. Plus, who knows what else I might find.
17:39Olivia was raised by a single mom who's deceased as well, so let me call the next to kin and see what I can do.
17:46Excuse me. Beckett.
17:49You sure it's sanitary to be eating here?
17:52You know the strength of the disinfectants we use here?
17:55This is the cleanest room in the city.
17:58I couldn't.
17:59Homemade.
18:00I couldn't.
18:01Caught a break. Captain talked to the friend.
18:04Does she remember who Olivia was with?
18:05Jeff Dillahunt, who's had his fair share of run-ins with the law, and he has a trust fund worth millions.
18:10You're going to have to pay $7,000 a month.
18:13Bingo.
18:13Booyah.
18:15I met Olivia at a nightclub.
18:18She hadn't been in town long, but she seemed like a real party girl.
18:22Were the two of you dating?
18:24No, just friends.
18:27What, can't a guy and a girl just be friends?
18:29Please.
18:30Are you two together?
18:32Not yet.
18:32Absolutely not.
18:36Look, it was no big deal.
18:38I happened to mention that a school friend of mine was having a family reunion here at the Pearson Club and asked me to stop by.
18:45Olivia really wanted to come, so I took her.
18:47Who would want to go to someone else's family reunion?
18:49Well, I suppose that all depends on the family. In this case, it happened to be the Wellesleys.
18:55The Wellesleys, Wellesleys? The rich and powerful Wellesleys? The conservative New York Wellesleys?
19:01Wasn't that one of our senators?
19:02Yeah, he was. Senator Casper Wellesley. He died early 90s. His kid's running for a seat again this year.
19:08Well, I'll tell you what. Next time I'm invited, I'll take you.
19:12Mr. Dillahunt, where were you between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. the night that she was killed?
19:17Okay, well, a couple of Wellesley cousins and I bailed early and went clubbing.
19:23I believe there may have been Bolivian marching powder involved. We got picked up for public intoxication.
19:29My father got the charges dropped, but there's still a record of our arrest.
19:33If you can't find it, I have a framed copy at home.
19:38Did you have an argument with Olivia that night? Or see anyone else who did?
19:42No.
19:43A witness saw Olivia having it out with a man in a blue blazer and an orange striped tie.
19:48Do you remember anyone who fit that description?
19:51Actually, I do.
19:53All Wellesley family events have a strict dress code.
19:56The blazers are standard, but Lanann Wellesley, the family matriarch, handpicks the men's ties.
20:03Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
20:07Yep. We got a hell of a lot of suspects.
20:12Yes, Chief. Now, I know Chief. As soon as I possibly can, Chief.
20:19They cut our staff 20%. They get upset when our closure rate drops 3%.
20:23You ask me, we're working miracles to do what we're doing.
20:25Sir, we can do this later if you have a higher priority.
20:27Never let the job get in the way of the job. Where were we?
20:30Well, Braden's contact communicated through a dummy e-mail account.
20:34And we tried to trace the address, but it was a dead end.
20:36Where are we with reviewing the guards?
20:38Nowhere.
20:38The warden refuses to provide us with a duty roster.
20:41Said he was offended we assumed one of his men was dirty. Wanted to handle it in-house.
20:44Yeah? Well, that doesn't work for me.
20:47Do any of these men look like the one that you saw arguing with Olivia the night of the party?
20:51Look, it was a stupid waitress job 10 years ago. Do you remember what you were doing 10 years ago?
20:56Can you recall any details? Was he wearing glasses? Did he have a tattoo?
21:00All I know is that the man was yelling at the girl. He got so riled up he spilled his wine.
21:04And I ended up cleaning it off the carpet.
21:07Did he spill any on himself?
21:08I don't know. Maybe.
21:10Maybe.
21:15Him.
21:19Trent Wellesley. I'm Detective Kate Beckett, NYPD. I need to have a word.
21:23Yes. My old friend Jeff said I might be hearing from you.
21:26Police. Are they the police?
21:28Yes, Grandmother.
21:30My ring was stolen.
21:31Oh, oh. They're not here for you, Grandmother.
21:34My ring was stolen. It's expensive.
21:37Trent, perhaps you should take this conversation elsewhere.
21:40Of course, Frank.
21:42She gets a little confused sometimes.
21:48Okay. Let's get this over with.
21:50It was me.
21:51It was you? What?
21:52I was the one who had the argument with the girl that Jeff brought to the reunion that night.
21:56The girl who was killed.
21:58I didn't care for her behavior, so I asked her to leave.
22:01Girls like that hang around families like mine for a reason.
22:05They want something.
22:07Jeff brought her as his plus one.
22:09But he had left by then, and she stayed.
22:12She tried to chat up more than one of my relatives.
22:14Anyone in particular?
22:16You're barking up the wrong tree.
22:17No one in my family had anything to do with what happened to her.
22:20Someone paid almost a million dollars to cover up her murder.
22:24That makes everyone in your family a suspect, including you.
22:28Trust me. If I had that kind of money to throw around, I wouldn't be here sucking up to the old lady.
22:33Nice.
22:35You think I'm rich because my last name's Wellesley.
22:38But my dad died when I was a kid.
22:40Mom and me had to pretty much survive off the handouts of relatives.
22:43Well, I suppose getting a job would be out of the question.
22:45Who are you protecting? You already admitted to arguing with her.
22:48It really does not look good.
22:50You have to understand.
22:52He's like the only father I have.
22:55Who are you talking about, Trent?
22:57My Uncle Winston.
22:59He'd just been through a bad breakup, and he's the kind of person that people try to take advantage of.
23:04People like who?
23:06Olivia or poor relations looking for a handout?
23:09I'd seen her with him before.
23:11Yes, it was terrible what happened to that poor girl.
23:18Could you tell us about the kind of relationship you had with her, Mr. Wellesley?
23:22Was the reunion the first time that you two met?
23:25Actually, I believe I met Olivia at a cocktail party a few weeks before that.
23:30Was it MoMA? I don't recall.
23:33Anyway, I took a shine to her.
23:36Charming, ambitious, rough around the edges.
23:39But I felt I could mentor her.
23:41And by mentor, you mean?
23:43What are you suggesting?
23:44Your nephew Trent said that he saw her hitting on you the whole night.
23:48Well, that's Trent for you.
23:50He's always been very protective of the family.
23:53Where were you between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. on the night she was murdered?
23:57Are you seriously asking me, Winston Wellesley, for an alibi?
24:03Apparently you are.
24:05Fine. I was home.
24:06Can anyone corroborate that?
24:08Yes. God.
24:10Mr. Wellesley, your car is ready.
24:14Hmm.
24:15As delightful as this conversation has been, I must take my leave.
24:19I have to meet my brother at his campaign headquarters.
24:22Ah, yes.
24:23Blake Wellesley running for Senate again.
24:25Mm-hmm.
24:26And we'd appreciate your support.
24:28Don't forget to vote.
24:33I have no doubt he was having an affair with Olivia.
24:36But why would he kill her?
24:37Do you think maybe he was upset that she came with someone else?
24:40Hmm.
24:41Jealousy.
24:42Money.
24:43Murder.
24:44You want to exhume my niece's body?
24:47We believe that there was evidence overlooked during the autopsy that could lead to her killer.
24:51Well, you told me you caught the man. You told me it was over.
24:55I thought it was, but whoever killed Olivia just murdered two more people.
25:00Your niece deserves justice, and so do they.
25:04She was such a special girl.
25:07She quit school to take care of her mother when the cancer got bad.
25:12That says a lot about her.
25:14After her mother passed, it was like she had to get away.
25:19When she moved to the city, I was just so happy for her.
25:26But then...
25:31You'll bury her back the way she was?
25:34Of course.
25:38At least she had the funeral she deserved.
25:41Thank God for Mr. Wellesley.
25:43Mr. Wellesley?
25:45The man who paid for everything.
25:47Which Mr. Wellesley was that?
25:51Winston Wellesley.
25:53Paid for her funeral?
25:54Did anyone say guilty conscience?
25:56Yeah.
25:57Hey Esposito, run down Winston Wellesley's alibi.
25:59Talk to doorman, chauffeurs, the whole gamut.
26:01See what I can do.
26:03Prison duty roster.
26:04How'd you pull it off, sir?
26:06They didn't make me captive just because I look good behind a desk.
26:08Run all the guards on that roster.
26:10Look for anything out of the ordinary.
26:12Sir, I'm gonna call the cemetery to make arrangements to exhume the body tomorrow.
26:15You know what I don't get?
26:17Whoever is behind this, why'd he stop paying Brady?
26:19These Wellesley's have plenty of money.
26:21If the money hadn't stopped, Brady never would have set off this triggering domino that started all this.
26:24Let me let you in on a little secret.
26:26You know how rich people stay rich?
26:27They are cheap.
26:28Why pay for Brady for the rest of his life when you can kill him for a fraction of the price?
26:32But then why would he wait ten years?
26:34Something changed.
26:35Something must have happened.
26:36Yeah.
26:37Captain Montgomery.
26:38Blake Wellesley.
26:40Hate to bother you, but do you have a minute to chat?
26:43I speak for the entire Wellesley family when I say you can expect our full cooperation in this investigation.
26:49But?
26:50You can tell.
26:51There's a but coming.
26:52Not a but.
26:53However, like I said, we'll cooperate.
26:55However, we request that these unannounced interviews come to a stop.
27:00Here we go.
27:01Beckett.
27:02Let's hear him out.
27:03I apologize if I'm coming off like one of those guys, Detective.
27:06It's just that these impromptu visits are a bit awkward.
27:10My nephew Trent said you spoke to him when he visited my mother.
27:13Mother became very confused, very upset.
27:16I'm sure there's a better way to facilitate this.
27:18Like what?
27:19I propose that all further interviews be coordinated by me and conducted in my offices.
27:24What do you think?
27:27Thank you for your offer, Mr. Wellesley.
27:29It's very nice of you.
27:30Not at all.
27:31I'll give you my number.
27:33Hold on.
27:34I, too, have a however.
27:36Thank you for your offer, however.
27:38My detectives will conduct their investigation in any manner they see fit.
27:43Captain, I can get the commissioner on the phone in under a minute.
27:46But tell him I said hi.
27:48And I really could use raise.
27:50I think we're done here.
28:02That was awesome!
28:03Whatever you guys are doing, keep doing it.
28:05They're circling the wagons.
28:08Awesome!
28:09Ignore.
28:10Accept.
28:11Accept.
28:12Accept.
28:13Ignore.
28:14Accept.
28:15Ignore.
28:16Accept.
28:17Ignore.
28:18Oh, mother.
28:19Come on.
28:20Accept the man's friend request already.
28:22Using that old photo was a horrible idea.
28:23Why didn't you stop me?
28:24Since when I've ever had the power to stop you from doing anything?
28:26What will Chet think if he expects 1980s Martha and present-day Martha shows up?
28:27You tell anyone I said this and I'll deny it and I'm only going to say it once.
28:291980s Martha was pretty great.
28:31But present-day Martha is pretty spectacular, too.
28:35Did you just accept that?
28:36Yeah.
28:37Well, take it back.
28:38I'm sorry.
28:39I cannot.
28:40No, but since it's done, why don't you take a visit to Chet's page and see what he looks
28:42like nowadays?
28:43Uh, just like this?
28:50Press that.
28:51Oh, good.
28:52Well, that's Chet, but I don't know if I can't.
28:56Why don't you take a visit to Chet's page and see what he looks like nowadays?
29:01Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
29:06Uh, just like this?
29:08Press that?
29:09Oh, good.
29:10oh good well that's chet but how old is that photo turnabout is fair play mother
29:20chet what are you thinking man city workers brought the coffin in an hour ago all right
29:27winston didn't spare any pennies with this box of wood this is the bentley of caskets
29:31shopping ahead research derek storm in storm warning finds a murder weapon buried in a
29:37coffin a year before the murder occurs of course who am i talking to you know this back in the
29:42non-fiction section we have a real casket that's been sealed for 10 years so there's going to be
29:47some serious decomposition when i crack this open expect the foulest of foul stenches
29:53is the body missing or did you just pull off an awesome magic trick you are amazing sir
30:23nope no prints whoever removed olivia's remains was careful how do these people manage to stay one
30:31step ahead of us olivia's aunt said it was an open casket funeral so her body must have been in here
30:37at one point the mortuary company must have switched out the bodies between the funeral and the burial
30:41yeah but the company's out of business so there's no way of finding out winston had to have paid to
30:45get rid of the body just in case prady ever wanted to come clean with the police looks like it this
30:50guy's got contingency plans for his contingency plans feels like we're battling a super villain
30:54excuse me dynamic duo what am i doing with this well it depends what can you get for a second-end
31:01casket these days i'll call olivia's family and find out what they want to do seriously though i
31:06wonder what you could get for a slightly used coffin that thing is top of the line did you check the drawer
31:11what drawer high-end coffins often have a small drawer hidden somewhere in the lid that way families can
31:17place momentous in there or psychotic killers can hide evidence
31:29thank you
31:38nothing suspicious it's just a bunch of family photographs
31:42what does that button say looks like a political button
31:47edna dubiasi isn't it dubiasi olivia's mother
31:53let me borrow your magnifying glass
31:55i don't have a magnifying glass isn't that standard issue for detectives
31:59no not since sherlock holmes you can use mine
32:03of course
32:09casper wellesley senate 78
32:12olivia's mother worked on the campaign all roads lead to wellesley
32:19are you looking at porn i use ryan's computer for that i've been searching a periodical database look
32:23what i found in this article talks about how during his 1970s senate run casper had his sons blake and
32:29winston heading up his campaign headquarters in ithaca where olivia's mom worked she and winston had to have
32:34crossed paths exactly now why would winston keep that from us
32:44we ran all the guards names off that duty ross you got us from brady's prison he's the only one
32:48that red flagged name's patterson made a deposit last month for five thousand dollars cash then the
32:55day brady was killed he makes another deposit in cash this time for ten if it's anything i hate
33:00it's a dirtbag in uniform so where you guys at with winston wellesley's alibi we have a few leads
33:06keep pushing on that i'll push on this
33:08mr wellesley we are going to find out the truth and the amount of dust that we kick up doing that
33:17is entirely up to you i do seem to recall making her acquaintance you're telling us half truths again
33:26we already know that you paid for olivia's funeral we know that you knew her mom either you start
33:30telling me the truth or you're going to spend the last few weeks of your brother's campaign issuing
33:34denials after i release what i know to the press fine i knew her mother after her mother passed olivia
33:42set about to unravel the mystery of her origins olivia was clever she put together clues found out her
33:51father was a wellesley a wellesley and actually truth is i'm olivia's father
34:02i know i had the same look on my face when olivia told me 10 years ago and olivia's mother didn't
34:09tell you hmm didn't tell olivia either i was just on the verge of telling everyone when she
34:18she was tragically killed it is a tragedy when a father kills his daughter isn't it what what do
34:23you know about olivia's missing body nothing that's obscene who would do something like that you
34:31so no one would ever find out the truth of who she really was i didn't kill her and i certainly
34:37didn't hide her body yet 10 years after her death you're still trying to hide her existence
34:43you have to understand i have a family to protect olivia was family
34:52winston wellesley you did it he might have but we don't have the evidence to prove it that's because he
34:58didn't we were able to verify winston's alibi he really was home alone oh he was home but he wasn't
35:06alone winston had some romantic company that night well then if he had an alibi why didn't he just say so
35:11from the start maybe because of who his romantic company was stanley jenkins is stanley a unisex name
35:18now or is winston and gay uh yeah he's gay he lied to us who is he protecting well he said it himself
35:28family
35:31you have to understand that this young woman olivia i hardly knew her maybe i shook her hand at the
35:36party but that's all and now you're telling me her mother and i worked the same campaign 30 years ago
35:41you and your brother were in ithaca july and august of 78 olivia was born may 79 that's nine months
35:47later your brother claimed paternity but i think we all know that's highly unlikely winston what the
35:53hell is going on here blake it's time to get the lawyers involved what did you know about this
35:57winston this is not the time or the place i never saw edna after that summer she never told me anything
36:06so you admit to sleeping with her she must have not wanted to rock the boat hurt my father's campaign
36:11with a scandal involving his son blake you've said enough i just found out i had a daughter i never
36:17knew about a daughter who was murdered and whose killer apparently is still at large why did you tell
36:22the police you were her father why actually the question is why did he tell olivia that 10 years ago
36:31you have to understand blake this was during the first senate run
36:35scandal would have killed the campaign i lost the damn election anyway you had no
36:38right to make that decision without only looking out for your best interests we
36:44winston who is we
36:52mother do you remember olivia olivia debiase of course i do i have my mind
36:59mrs wellesley we need to ask who are you
37:01that's not olivia yes mother this is a police detective oh yes my ring was stolen
37:11it was very expensive yes ma'am uh but before we can deal with that we need to ask you a few
37:17questions about olivia debiase of olivia came to me looking for a father so i gave her winston
37:26a child would go a long way to butch up his image but she was my daughter mother
37:32you were too special you're going to be a senator maybe even president someday mrs wellesley what
37:41happened to olivia the night of her murder oh so many questions about i don't care for
37:48questions olivia questioned me oh the gall of that girl mr wellesley your mother is ill she can't handle
37:55this oh shut it frank i can handle anything it's dangerous for her to get this riled up i'm getting
38:03her medication from the car what does any of this have to do with my stolen ring
38:12mother did you go to olivia's apartment that night she crossed me had to be stopped what did you do
38:20mother mrs wellesley did you kill olivia debiase kill her why would i kill her no i said take care of
38:37it and it was taken care of
38:45and who did you ask to take care of it well well well if it isn't frank davis
38:50sorry pal got the wrong guy i don't think so pal i just spent the better part of the day sweating
38:55a guard named patterson who works in the prison where brady thompson was killed i don't know any
38:58brady thompson and i don't know any patterson that's funny because he knows you said that you
39:03paid him to monitor brady thompson's calls about a package nope no no no so did you pay them to have
39:10a life or put a shiv in brady thompson's back now you tell me how i got the wrong guy cuffs
39:16so frank was the family hitman but more like the family fixer he cleaned up all types of dirt for
39:22senator wellesley back in the day he knows where all the bodies are buried and which ones needed to
39:25be dug up and then after he got rid of olivia when mrs wellesley's orders he called around all his
39:30low-life connections till he found someone desperate enough to cut a deal then why after 10 years would
39:34he suddenly stop paying brady to do his jail time when mrs wellesley lost her faculties blake was granted
39:38power of attorney frank couldn't get the money to make the payments anymore so he stopped figuring
39:43brady would just disappear and when he found out brady had evidence to prove his innocence frank
39:47panicked he stole mrs wellesley's ring and hocked it to finance his plan to shut brady up permanently
39:52by the way took a look at the precinct's numbers three closed cases puts us just over the mandated case
39:57closure rate right in time for the review tomorrow you know it's even better than that after 10 years
40:02i can call olivia's end and tell her that we really got the guy finally
40:12and you get to give the messenger sister some closure too
40:16no i don't suppose having answers makes it any easier it does in time
40:32i can't believe how many lives were ruined over one woman's need to protect her family's reputation
40:48you will never have this problem between grams and myself our family reputation's already in ruins
40:53mm lucky me yeah what's gonna happen to brady's son well there's a silver lining there when blake
41:00wellesley found out why brady sold his freedom he pledged 20 million dollars to a local kids charity
41:05who agreed to handle brady's son's care that's so sweet and wow looking good grams hot date dining and
41:15dancing with chet pallor burn what if he turns out to be bloated and ugly oh how superficial do you
41:22think i am intensely mother what is going on present day martha is going on i've had filthy stinking rich
