00:00:00What are you doing? Who are you? You? Haunting me to the grave, you and all the others. I
00:00:20told you. You will find nothing. You will get nothing. Not now, not ever. It's gone.
00:00:32Buried. I won't have it staining my name, my legacy. You hear me? I have tried to make
00:00:48amends. I've tried.
00:00:55No, seriously, Dad, I don't know why you ever signed me up for basketball. I believe you
00:01:18did that all by yourself. Well, why didn't you talk me out of it? As I recall, there
00:01:22was no talking you out of anything. Logan, we are sorry that your team didn't win, but
00:01:26you did your best. Now have some pizza. You'll feel better. Lemonade? Okay. I'm sorry, Dad.
00:01:35I'm just frustrated, you know? I mean, we have a decent team and all, we just can't
00:01:40get our offense in sync. Well, I'm sure the last thing you need right now is fatherly
00:01:45advice, so why don't we just sit here and enjoy the pizza? Lemonade? Oh, please. This
00:01:52looks delicious, honey. Is that a cinnamon and tomato sauce? Yes, with a little bit of
00:01:55garlic. Okay, go ahead. It's delicious. Dad, I'm giving you an open lane here. Oh, all
00:02:08right. Well, in my experience, at some point, someone has to step up and be the team leader,
00:02:14and in my opinion, I think that should be you. Me? No, Dad. You're a good ball handler.
00:02:19You're a solid passer. You know how to run the court, and most importantly, you're smart.
00:02:25You are really smart. I'll bet you that next piece of pizza there that you almost know
00:02:30the game as well as your coach. Wow. Daddy takes it. You are really good with him, Jason.
00:02:45Hey, I've been there. Wait, didn't your team win the league championship three years in
00:02:50a row? Yes, only to lose the state championship three years in a row, and back then, it was
00:02:56a world-level playing field. I wasn't going up against six-foot-ten monsters who could
00:03:00360 dunk. Like you said, Logan is smart. He'll figure it out. I'm just glad I asked you to
00:03:06lean on. Thank you. Oh. Who is it? Hannah. Hey, sweetheart. What's up? Mom, I know it's
00:03:15late, and I hate to hit you up, but my debit card just maxed out again, and I've got study
00:03:18group going on here, and caffeine is, like, super critical at this juncture, and besides,
00:03:22it's my turn to buy the next round, so... Hannah, maybe a J-O-B is in order here. A
00:03:26job? There's got to be something I can find part-time. Never mind, Mom. I've got this.
00:03:32Love you. Love you, too. Bye. Oh, boy. Kids in crisis. Film at 11. Well, hopefully, we'll
00:03:37be in dreamland by then. Rough night, Mr. Dwyer? We'll call it overtime. By the way,
00:03:57that's official. Alfreda Zane, Mr. Dietz. Hmm. Deathbed confession would have been nice.
00:04:07Well, at least now we can start liquidating the rest of the estate. Who knows? Maybe we'll
00:04:12find it. Yes, well, buried treasure aside, the auction is still only two days off. We'll
00:04:19do a thorough sweep of the residence, photograph anything left of value, then we'll email an
00:04:23addendum list to all those who are SVP'd. Shall I start in the library? Absolutely.
00:04:28Pack up the entire room. I'm going to need some time to sift through all this. Yes, sir.
00:04:32We should get going. Where's your backpack? It's just upstairs. Go grab it. Hannah, did
00:04:44you see this? Carl Dietz passed away last night. Oh, no. Dietz? Why do I know that name?
00:04:52The Dietz Recital Hall. The one your dad spent two years of his life building. Oh, right. Not only did Mr. Dietz fund it, he would follow me around and micromanage every detail. He was the ultimate perfectionist. He was also very generous. Danny and I are supposed to go to his estate sale later this week, and all the proceeds are going to the Dietz Recital Hall fund or local music programs. How long has it been on the calendar? About a month. Shouldn't you be, like, officially dead before your estate gets auctioned off? Not if you're 92 and in failing health. It's called getting your affairs in order.
00:05:22Anyway, the man was a friend, and he definitely made me a better builder. He'll be missed. Well, I'm definitely going to be late if I don't get a move on. Great pancakes, Dad. Pat on that recipe. Thank you. Maybe I will. What are you making for dinner?
00:05:42Whoa. Looks like someone sprinkled a little ambition in their morning coffee. Coffee and nudging from my damsel in distress.
00:05:52Well, my work here is done. You ladies have a nice day now.
00:05:59Um, I don't mean to break up the mood, but did you happen to sort through the bills? Yes, I put them in two piles. Pay now and pay later. Oh, pay later is rather large. That's what I thought. Oh, dear.
00:06:12Helen, so nice to see you. Good morning, Jennifer. A little bird told me you came across some pre-war dressed in china. Yes, that little bird was me. Well, thank you for the call, my dear. Shall I get it for you to look at? I'll be right back. By the way, did you hear Karl Dietz passed away? Yes, I read about that in the paper.
00:06:32A fellow Berliner, though I never much cared for the man. A bit stiff for a career diplomat, don't you think? I wouldn't know. We never met. Well, he did have excellent taste. I grant him that. Did you get a chance to look through his estate auction catalog? There's this landscape painting on page two.
00:06:54Oh, right. Of course. The Caspar David Friedrich. It's a bit pricey for us, but gorgeous. Jennifer, I can't shake the feeling that I saw this painting at our family home back in Germany. Really? Well, Helen, are you sure?
00:07:11Well, I can't be certain. I was only six when we fled East Berlin. But I do recall something quite similar hanging in an upstairs bedroom. This was after the war, of course. By then, everything had been destroyed, sold, lost. Helen, we can inquire about the painting's providence. Yes, that would be very helpful, my dear. But in the meantime, I am going to bid on it.
00:07:39Heaven knows mother and father would have.
00:07:45So, my math teacher, Mrs. Bellows, she hands us this really weird midterm assignment. She wants us to look at parts of our life that need improvement and use statistics to come up with a plan. Oh, that sounds interesting. Does that mean you're going to help? Oh, no. I'm done with high school. Dad?
00:08:01Oh, likewise. But remember what we talked about last night? Teen leadership. Maybe with some stats in hand. And it could help form a game plan. Yeah, you're right.
00:08:13She got a job, now she's okay. Now she can afford a double latte. Oh, Hannah, that's wonderful.
00:08:21Student tutoring, 15 an hour. Can you believe that? Seriously?
00:08:25Congrats. When do you start?
00:08:26Tomorrow. I've been assigned a football player who has a ton of makeup work to get through. Football? What's his name? Rick Nason. Rick Nason? Hannah, he's the starting quarterback. Well, not for long if he doesn't get his act together. He's already on academic probation. Okay, Hannah, look at me. Rick Nason is carrying the entire football team, okay? You cannot let him fail. Logan, look at me. He's not going to fail. Okay, look at me. Let's eat.
00:08:56Gosh, I've never seen a red carpet at an estate auction before. I feel a little underdressed. Oh, there's Dean. Hey. Hi. Hey, Jen, Danny. Did you bring your checkbooks? We did, did you? Are you kidding me? Did Hyden wear a wig? He did.
00:09:16Hi, Alan. Hey. Thank you.
00:09:24It's a good turnout. Yes, a nice fat commission in this offering, but a disappointment nonetheless.
00:09:32Sir, I went over every square inch of the Deeds' residence. I went through every drawer in his desk. I even pulled up the floorboards. I'm telling you, what you seek is what we've got. And I'm telling you there's more, Dwyer. King's ransom tucked away somewhere, probably. Right underneath our noses.
00:09:52Otherwise, why would he be here? Jack Grenier. Keep an eye on him. Yes, sir.
00:10:04Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. I am your host and auctioneer, Conrad Siles. Now then, let us commence with the Carl L. Deeds Charitable Estate auction.
00:10:28Item number one, an exceptional Edemeyer armoire wardrobe in pure walnut, circa 1840. And we will start the bidding at $6,000. $6,500. Do I hear $7,000?
00:10:50$7,000. Do I hear $8,000? $8,000 going, going, sold. $7,000 to the gentleman with paddle number 44.
00:11:08Next up, a delightful landscape painting from a true master of romanticism, Caspar David Friedrich. That's it. That's the one. Are you sure, Helen? Yes. Now I'm certain. And we will start the bidding at $15,000.
00:11:28Oh, dear. I'm afraid I'm too old to take out a second mortgage.
00:11:45If you break it, you still pay for it. Conrad Siles Bagman, I presume. And what did you bring home from the war, Sergeant? The cashier. It's that way.
00:12:10Next up, we have an accepted standing bid of $30,000. Lot number two is now sold. I'm sorry, Helen.
00:12:29Why, is that a Bastogne du Roc player piano? Yes, a 1910, to be exact. It's on the addendum list. Did you not get one? No. It was emailed to me last night. I didn't see one. It says it's in fair condition. Fair being code for barely functioning.
00:12:43Comes with six music rolls. I know someone who would pay a fortune for this piano once it's restored, of course. Hey, Helen, did you see this? There's a pair of landscape paintings, Sunrise and Sunset. It said the artist comes from the Munich School. Style could be reminiscent of Caspar David Friedrich.
00:13:02My, that sounds interesting. And they're probably affordable. Are you in? I'm in. Next, a Veston du Brat piano. And we will start the bidding at $2,000. $2,000. $2,200.
00:13:18Fun! Well, I'd say we've earned some champagne. Helen got her Sunrise and Sunset paintings, and Dean got his viola, and Rags to Riches now owns Kaiser Wilhelm's piano. Well, nice drink to that. Happy auction day, everyone. Happy auction day, everyone. Auction day.
00:13:37It doesn't look too bad. Some WD-40, some sandpaper, maybe a little duct tape. Oh, Dean, stop. Just give me about an hour to take a look at it and write up an estimate, factoring in the friends and family discount, of course. Thank you.
00:13:52Excusez-moi. May I have a moment? My name is Jacques, and unfortunately I was not in the room when they presented this marvelous piano, and I never received the addendum list. So I would like to know if you would consider an offer. I could go up 20%.
00:14:11Oh, well, thank you, but it's not for sale. 25%. That's very generous, but I'm not selling. Madame, this is very important to me. Please say your price.
00:14:26The lady said no. Well, that is a real shame.
00:14:41Dean?
00:14:42Dean?
00:15:05Dean?
00:15:09Dean, you back there?
00:15:12Dean?
00:15:19Dean?
00:15:28Dean!
00:15:30Oh!
00:15:35911, what's your emergency?
00:15:37Yes, operator. There's been an attack at 166 South Grove. The victim is unconscious. I need an ambulance right away.
00:15:44Frank, Dean is such a sweet guy. I don't know what would have provoked this kind of attack.
00:15:49It's most likely a robbery gone wrong.
00:15:52Let's see the till here.
00:15:57That's 500 or so dollars still left in the till.
00:16:00Strange.
00:16:02Gin?
00:16:03The piano.
00:16:05The front panels were yanked off.
00:16:08Yeah, Salem was probably looking for it.
00:16:19Oh.
00:16:20The piano.
00:16:27The front panels were yanked off.
00:16:29Yeah.
00:16:30Salem was probably looking for something.
00:16:32Money.
00:16:33Drugs.
00:16:34We've seen stranger things.
00:16:35Frank, Dean and I were approached after the auction by a gentleman.
00:16:36He said his name was Jacques.
00:16:38Medium height.
00:16:39French accent.
00:16:40He wanted to buy the piano.
00:16:41When I declined his offer, he got very insistent.
00:16:45Dean had to intervene.
00:16:46That definitely sounds like a motive.
00:16:48I take it he didn't give you his card.
00:16:51No.
00:16:52Oh, but I did see him place a winning bid on a Biedermeyer dresser, which means the
00:16:56auction house would have record of that purchase.
00:16:58Good.
00:16:59I'll follow up.
00:17:00In the meantime, I'm going to take a look around and see if anything else was taken.
00:17:05Frank, there might be a guitar missing.
00:17:11Look right there.
00:17:12Slot G4.
00:17:13Okay.
00:17:14All right.
00:17:16Let's see if Mr. Connick has any listed here on it.
00:17:21G3, G5, G4.
00:17:24It's a 1937 Martin D28 guitar.
00:17:28Sounds really expensive.
00:17:29A vintage Martin could be worth $8,000.
00:17:32Who's the owner?
00:17:33Is anything else listed here except the initials HN?
00:17:36Does that ring a bell?
00:17:37No.
00:17:38Look, if you don't need me, I'm going to go to the hospital and see how Dean is doing.
00:17:42Okay.
00:17:43I'm going to stick around and look at the security footage on the cameras.
00:17:46It's too bad they didn't have a camera mounted in the back.
00:17:49Yeah, it is too bad.
00:17:55How's Mr. Connick, Frank?
00:17:57He's conscious, but he's still in ICU.
00:17:59This is the neurologist in charge.
00:18:01She said he's not ready for visitors yet.
00:18:04Okay, thanks.
00:18:05Now, this man you mentioned, the one who approached you after the auction.
00:18:09Yes, Jacques.
00:18:10Okay, well, I may have found something.
00:18:17Check this out.
00:18:19Martin guitar's still there, slot G4.
00:18:21Yeah, I saw that.
00:18:23Here we go.
00:18:25That's him. That's Jacques.
00:18:27You sure?
00:18:28Yes.
00:18:29Okay, well, you have a bonafide suspect.
00:18:31I just hope that Mr. Connick can ID him.
00:18:35Like a dog after a bone.
00:18:36Or a man after a piano.
00:18:41All right.
00:18:43Fifty-eight seconds on camera.
00:18:45You think that was enough time?
00:18:47What, enough time to knock out your friend, tear the panels off your piano and do insurgencies?
00:18:51Yeah, plenty of time.
00:18:53Question is, what was he looking for?
00:18:57All right, I'm going to fast forward a little bit here.
00:18:59There was one other person that came in before you arrived.
00:19:03There he is.
00:19:04A rock and roller.
00:19:06Well, he looks familiar.
00:19:07H.N.
00:19:09H.N.
00:19:11You know what? I think that's Howie Nash.
00:19:13He's a local musician, very popular among Hannah's crowd.
00:19:16Oh, FYI, he plays folk, not rock.
00:19:18I heard his CD's pretty good.
00:19:20Oh, yeah? He's a very bad thief.
00:19:27Oh, that's not good.
00:19:30How long was he off camera?
00:19:32Sixteen seconds.
00:19:34Still within the time frame.
00:19:35Still a suspect.
00:19:40Seven, eight, seven, eight.
00:19:44Shannon, what are you doing? I didn't give the afternoon off. Let's go.
00:19:47I know, Coach, I know. I'm just crunching some data here.
00:19:50Yeah, did you know we're shooting almost 60% from the top of the key, but only 30% inside the paint?
00:19:54What are you, my statistician now?
00:19:56No, no, I'm just going over some math homework.
00:19:59Look, I was thinking, maybe we could work off some of these stats, you know?
00:20:03Design some new plays?
00:20:04Oh, yeah? I got a better idea.
00:20:06How about ten full court sprints?
00:20:09Let's go on the line. Ten sprints. Let's go. Hustle up.
00:20:12Let's go, let's go, let's go.
00:20:15Come on, kid. We have you on tape at the crime scene.
00:20:19Stop with the third degree, man.
00:20:21Me and Dean, you have no idea.
00:20:23Okay. Well, enlighten me.
00:20:26Yeah, maybe I'll start with theft, and then, you know, work my way up to assault.
00:20:30Or vice versa, whatever you...
00:20:31Your guitar is mine, okay?
00:20:34Look, this right here is a prepaid receipt for new strings and fret repair.
00:20:40Mr. Connick is the only human on the planet who ever touched my D-28.
00:20:45The man's a good friend.
00:20:47Been a mentor to me since I picked up a toy ukulele.
00:20:49Why would I want to hurt him?
00:20:51So why did you call 9-1-1?
00:20:53Because I had no idea he'd been ruled, okay?
00:20:55I thought I could hear him moving around in the back there.
00:20:57And the door was shut. Music was on.
00:21:00He was in work mode.
00:21:01Well, then you knock.
00:21:02No, you don't knock.
00:21:03He can hear the door, and she'll buzzer.
00:21:05If he's not there, when you walk in, you'll wait.
00:21:07It means he's busy.
00:21:09Could be holding a Stradivarius. You know what I'm saying?
00:21:11But you couldn't wait.
00:21:13I got a gig tonight. Are we done?
00:21:16I want to go by the hospital.
00:21:20You're wasting your time.
00:21:29Rick?
00:21:31Hey there. Don't think we've met.
00:21:33Hi. I'm Hannah, your new tutor.
00:21:36You're kidding.
00:21:38My coach said he'd handle this.
00:21:40He did. That's why I'm here.
00:21:43You do know that academic probation can lead to team suspension, right?
00:21:46Anyway, I visited all of your professors, and, wow,
00:21:50clearly we have a lot of mega work to get after.
00:21:53Yeah, well, I got practice in a couple minutes.
00:21:55Well, I can meet you at the library right after.
00:21:57I'll see you tomorrow.
00:22:02So why wasn't I informed?
00:22:04You had no right to hold an estate sale to sell off my family heirlooms.
00:22:08I had every right, Ms. Turner.
00:22:10I have here a letter from my grandfather written to my mother, Helga,
00:22:13six months ago, assuring us that everything,
00:22:15and I mean everything in his estate, would be left to us.
00:22:18And I have here a legally binding contract
00:22:21signed by your late grandfather, Karl Dietz, eight weeks ago,
00:22:25giving me permission to appraise, catalog, and auction
00:22:28all items listed here within,
00:22:30the net profits to be placed in his charitable trust.
00:22:34Two months ago? How convenient.
00:22:37Detective, ma'am, Mr. Siles is at the top of the stairs.
00:22:40He's expecting you.
00:22:45Hey, Jane, thanks for meeting me here.
00:22:47I figured you were an antique expert,
00:22:49so you should be able to speak Siles' language.
00:22:51Of course. Has Howie been cleared?
00:22:54For now.
00:22:55Well, clearly my contract supersedes your letter.
00:22:58Speaking of which, when was the last time you saw your grandfather?
00:23:01Nine? Ten years ago?
00:23:03How dare you?
00:23:04I'm sorry, your grief and concern is duly noted.
00:23:08And I have no doubt that you manipulated a sick, feeble old man.
00:23:11You'll be hearing from my attorney.
00:23:13Good evening, Ms. Turner.
00:23:15Ah, Detective, please, come in.
00:23:17Sorry about the spot of drama.
00:23:19Comes with the territory, I'm afraid.
00:23:21Sure.
00:23:23Now then, how may I be of assistance?
00:23:27Is that a Friedrich Eisenhof?
00:23:29Oh, why, yes. Um, circa 1836.
00:23:35Miss...
00:23:36Oh, Shannon, I love the von Hussle design.
00:23:41Jennifer owns an antique store in town, Rikester Ridges.
00:23:43Ah, yes, yes.
00:23:45Rumor has it you have the habit of unearthing a rare gem now and then.
00:23:48Well, I certainly unearthed one today.
00:23:51I'm the one who purchased Mr. Dietz's player piano.
00:23:54Oh, yes. Well, what a delightful and arcane instrument.
00:23:57Yes. Oh, of course, now I recognize you.
00:24:00And wasn't that, um, Dean Connick I saw you with?
00:24:05Actually, that's why we're here.
00:24:07Mr. Connick was assaulted this afternoon,
00:24:09shortly after transporting the player piano back to his shop.
00:24:12Oh, that is distressing.
00:24:14A witness.
00:24:17Same individual who placed the winning bid on the Biedermeier armoire.
00:24:21Also seems to have quite the zealous interest in Mrs. Shannon's piano.
00:24:26Says his name is Jacques.
00:24:29Vaguely recognize the face, Detective?
00:24:33But I'm afraid I cannot help you.
00:24:35A gentleman, if you can call him that, left without the armoire
00:24:39and did not leave a check to place it on hold.
00:24:41Therefore, we have no record of him, I'm afraid.
00:24:44He wasn't on the invite list?
00:24:45No, but we often get crashers, and this one picked up a paddle and made a bid.
00:24:50Um, sorry. I couldn't be of more help, Detective.
00:24:55And, Miss Shannon, please extend my heartfelt wishes to Mr. Connick
00:24:59for a full and complete recovery.
00:25:01Will do.
00:25:06Bye.
00:25:12Hey, hon.
00:25:13Oh, hey, sweetheart.
00:25:15I got your message about Dean.
00:25:17Any updates from the hospital?
00:25:19Uh, yes. He is still in ICU, but his MRI came back clear.
00:25:22Well, that's encouraging.
00:25:24Something smells good. What are you cooking?
00:25:26Oh, I'm trying that new delivery service that Danny keeps raving about.
00:25:29Oh, not the Don't Panic, it's Organic Express.
00:25:32Yes!
00:25:33Paneer vindaloo with eggplant.
00:25:37Oh, come on. Where's your sister?
00:25:39Oh, come on. Where's your sense of adventure?
00:25:41I just go easy on the curry.
00:25:43Are you working on a new project?
00:25:45Actually, it's an old one.
00:25:47Those are the original blueprints from the Dietz Recital Hall.
00:25:50I thought I'd donate them, you know, maybe get them framed and hang them in the lobby.
00:25:54Would you like me to get them framed for you?
00:25:56That's a terrific idea.
00:25:58His granddaughter's putting on a memorial service in a couple of days.
00:26:02They've asked me to help plan it since I know every square inch of the place.
00:26:06And there's a rehearsal tomorrow, so maybe if you could drop by, Danny.
00:26:09Oh, wow, a rush job. Oh, well, I'm on it.
00:26:16Hey, Jason, this isn't your handwriting.
00:26:18Those are Mr. Dietz's notes and adjustments.
00:26:21That's why I wanted to donate the prints.
00:26:23Like I said, the man was a perfectionist.
00:26:25He even brought his own people in to do the acoustics, stage flooring, VIP seats.
00:26:32What?
00:26:33What?
00:26:37Well, I was just thinking.
00:26:38Someone went to great lengths to search Karl Dietz's piano.
00:26:41They were even willing to hurt Deet.
00:26:43It makes you wonder.
00:26:45Did Karl Dietz die from something other than a heart attack?
00:26:48Jen, don't overthink this.
00:26:51Mr. Dietz had a history of heart trouble. He was in home hospice.
00:26:54Yes, but that wouldn't necessarily remove him from harm's way, would it?
00:27:04Tell me, Mr. Dwyer.
00:27:06How up are you on your philosophers?
00:27:08I've read a little Nietzsche, a little bit of Marcus Aurelius.
00:27:12I take it you've never heard of Yang Tzu?
00:27:15Fourth century, Chinese.
00:27:17Believed in a everything-for-myself outlook.
00:27:20Is there a point to this, sir?
00:27:23Not a point.
00:27:25A revelation.
00:27:28Tucked among the volumes, indeed.
00:27:31Tucked among the volumes in Dietz's library.
00:27:36A missing link to a missing fortune, perhaps?
00:27:39Outstanding.
00:27:41So, what have you found?
00:27:43Patience. I've just started sifting through it all, and my German is a little rusty.
00:27:47But I did find a note.
00:27:51A personal reminder regarding the two Munich school paintings we found hanging behind his desk.
00:27:56The sunrise and sunset landscapes.
00:27:59Yes.
00:28:01He asked for them to be moved to the vault for safekeeping.
00:28:06Fortunately, he never got around to it before his health took a turn for the worse.
00:28:10Unfortunately, I just sold them off at auction.
00:28:14And you think they may contain a clue to this vault?
00:28:18All I know is Karl Dietz kept his secrets very close.
00:28:23Perhaps hanging on a wall behind his desk.
00:28:27Who owns the paintings now?
00:28:29Mrs. Helen Bauer.
00:28:33How's that?
00:28:34Perfect.
00:28:35Thanks.
00:28:36Why don't you come on in? We're just finalizing some details.
00:28:39Okay.
00:28:42So after the Mendelssohn octet, we'll have the musicians leave with their chairs, and then we'll finish with the Mozart Fantasia. Agreed?
00:28:49Okay, wonderful. Thank you, everyone.
00:28:51Carolyn.
00:28:52Yes?
00:28:53I want to introduce you to my wife, Jennifer.
00:28:55Jen, this is Carolyn, Karl Dietz's granddaughter.
00:28:57It's nice to formally meet you.
00:28:59We crossed paths at the auction house earlier.
00:29:02I'm so sorry you had to witness my little temper tantrum there.
00:29:05It's bad timing, I'm afraid.
00:29:06Oh, excuse me, the backstage door is warped.
00:29:09Gotta make sure they fix the lock.
00:29:10It's always something.
00:29:12Oh my gosh, he's been such a help.
00:29:14Well, he worked very closely with your grandfather building this place.
00:29:18I'm so sorry for your loss.
00:29:21So I take it you had no idea there was going to be an estate auction?
00:29:24No, none whatsoever.
00:29:26I've been overseas on assignment these past few months.
00:29:28I'm a crisis manager with the CDC.
00:29:30Oh, wow, a real humanitarian.
00:29:33Oh, I mean, it can be rewarding.
00:29:36And exhausting.
00:29:38But, um...
00:29:40Yeah, I'm still working through a lot of the guilt and regret over not being able to get back before my grandpa died.
00:29:47He didn't treat my mother very well when I was growing up.
00:29:49I called him out on it, and that was that.
00:29:52He cut us both off.
00:29:54I'm sorry.
00:29:56About six months ago, my mom told me that Grandpa wanted to reinstate us in the will,
00:29:59and she gave me a letter to that effect from him.
00:30:02Really?
00:30:03Uh, my mom.
00:30:05She passed away a few months ago while I was overseas, and then Grandpa's health declined,
00:30:10and that's when Conrad Stiles swooped in.
00:30:13He's a professional vulture, that man.
00:30:16I'm sorry, I don't mean to vent.
00:30:18No, it's perfectly all right.
00:30:21I figure I'll just leave it to the lawyers to sort it out.
00:30:24Well, I'm very sorry that you're having to go through this,
00:30:27but if it's any consolation, your grandfather meant a great deal to this community,
00:30:31and I think it's lovely that you're honoring his memory and his contributions.
00:30:38Now if I could just do something about my nerves,
00:30:41I volunteered to play the Mozart Fantasia in D minor.
00:30:44Oh, my!
00:30:46Yeah, it was my grandpa's favorite.
00:30:48He taught it to my mother and then to me.
00:30:50I am sure you will be fine.
00:30:53I should really get back to work.
00:30:55I'll see you at the memorial.
00:30:56Of course you will.
00:31:02Well, to be honest, I can understand Carolyn's frustration.
00:31:05Do you think Stiles might have manipulated Dietz into an estate auction?
00:31:09Our lawyers certainly think so.
00:31:11The department was just notified that he's preparing to file charges against Stiles
00:31:14for defrauding the grandfather of what she considers her rightful inheritance.
00:31:19We've already drawn up a list of items, assets from the estate.
00:31:23Piano included?
00:31:24Piano included.
00:31:26She's also expressed her displeasure at the department for not releasing Dietz's body yet.
00:31:31And you haven't because?
00:31:34Because there are questions, which I don't care to comment on.
00:31:39The paper said he died of heart failure.
00:31:41A cardiac arrest.
00:31:42According to Dr. Trammell, he was triggered by an embolism.
00:31:46I mean, Jim, come on, the guy was almost 100 years old.
00:31:5092.
00:31:51Close enough.
00:31:53Let's turn the page here for a second.
00:31:55I went and paid your friend a visit, Mr. Connick.
00:31:59According to him, he was clubbed from behind, so that's why he didn't see the assailant.
00:32:03It seemed a little strange to me, considering the sight lines of the door.
00:32:06I told one of my tech guys to go over there and check out the rear window of the shop and, well, according to the evidence, it was jimmied.
00:32:14So the attacker had an entry and exit point.
00:32:17Yes, which leaves me at a dead end until I find Jacques.
00:32:22Who left through the front door?
00:32:24Well, probably because he noticed the surveillance cameras, but that doesn't mean he couldn't have walked around to the back.
00:32:29So we have Jacques at the auction, looking for something inside the Biedermeyer dresser.
00:32:33He doesn't find it, so he chucks it.
00:32:35Then he sets his sights on your piano, which he tracks down at Dean's shop.
00:32:39As it looks, he...
00:32:40Not a very thorough one.
00:32:42Well, it's either he found what he's looking for or someone spooked him.
00:32:45Maybe it was Howie.
00:32:47He said Dean's workshop door was closed when he got there and he thought he heard someone moving around inside.
00:32:51Which he assumed was Mr. Connick.
00:32:53But it might have been Jacques.
00:32:55This attack had a goal, a purpose, and all clues seem to lead to Carl Dietz's piano.
00:33:03Oh, excuse me. Can I get a slice of mud pie for my friend? Thank you.
00:33:08I didn't say I wanted a mud pie.
00:33:10You didn't say you did.
00:33:26Welcome to Rags to Riches.
00:33:28It's a nice shop. Very charming.
00:33:32Didn't I see you at the auction the other day?
00:33:34Oui. I'm here about the piano.
00:33:37Ah, the piano. The piano isn't actually for sale.
00:33:41Well, I will take a look anyway.
00:33:43Oh.
00:33:47Hello, Rags to Riches.
00:33:49Oh, hey, Danny. Has the piano arrived yet?
00:33:51May we? Yes, we have a customer looking at it right now.
00:33:55It's Jacques, isn't it? He's there.
00:33:57Oui.
00:33:58Yes.
00:33:59Yeah, you got it, sister.
00:34:00Dispatch?
00:34:01Make any available unit at 9179 Main Street ASAP.
00:34:05Danny, remain calm. Frank is on his way there, and the police are en route.
00:34:08Oh, that's wonderful news.
00:34:11I would like to see the piano bench and the music scrolls, madame.
00:34:15Ah.
00:34:16Oh, Drew. Oh, Drew, I'm so happy to see you.
00:34:19Oh, I told you I'd be dropping off the new light fixtures.
00:34:22Drew, this is Jacques. He's interested in the pianos.
00:34:25Bournvitable Jacques. Hey, let's start it up.
00:34:27Where'd you put those music rolls? They're in the piano bench, right?
00:34:29Let's go get them.
00:34:30I'm sorry, I forgot to have another appointment. Perhaps some other time.
00:34:47My travel bag?
00:34:48No, just a minute.
00:34:51Hmm.
00:34:52You're quite the world traveler, huh, Mr. Grenier?
00:34:55Well, for now, in our zip code at least.
00:34:57You're facing felony assault.
00:35:00Well, I have not assaulted anyone.
00:35:02Well, we have surveillance footage of you confronting Mr. Connick before he wound up in the ICU.
00:35:07We also have witnesses who can testify to your keen interest in the player piano that was at his shop.
00:35:13The one that was slightly damaged after the attack.
00:35:16I merely inquired about the piano.
00:35:18Yes. Three times on my last count.
00:35:21It must hold deep sentimental value to you.
00:35:24As I said, if I could retrieve my travel bag...
00:35:28Ah, here it is. Merci, monsieur.
00:35:40What do we have here?
00:35:43A Reta 9mm.
00:35:45My service weapon.
00:35:46And what service would that be?
00:35:48European Ministry of Criminal Affairs.
00:35:51Ministry of Criminal Affairs.
00:35:53My permit and ID are also in the bag.
00:36:05The MCA, huh?
00:36:08So what brings you here, Inspector?
00:36:11Besides an old armoire and a player piano.
00:36:14Carol Deeds.
00:36:16I've been pursuing him for a very long time.
00:36:18Why?
00:36:19You call it restitution.
00:36:22Well, you're a little late for that.
00:36:25The man is dead.
00:36:27Right.
00:36:28Now if only the dead could talk.
00:36:31What does that mean?
00:36:33It is my turn now, Detective.
00:36:35Tell me, what do you know about the late Carl Deeds?
00:36:39All right.
00:36:40German-born.
00:36:42Worked as a diplomatic liaison for NATO.
00:36:44Retired out here about 20 years ago.
00:36:46Was a friend of the mayor.
00:36:48He's a very generous benefactor of the community.
00:36:51Underwriting the local recital hall, the orchestra.
00:36:54Yes, yes, I'm sure he's a true patron of the arts.
00:36:57You take the note of sarcasm there.
00:37:00This man you speak of is a retired diplomat.
00:37:05He's a magnanimous benefactor.
00:37:08He's a masquerade.
00:37:10A reinvention.
00:37:12The Carl Deeds I know is someone else entirely.
00:37:16Someone who took full advantage of the dire situation that followed the war in Germany.
00:37:22Could you be a little more specific?
00:37:25He abused the powers and privileges bestowed upon him.
00:37:29And for that, he will atone.
00:37:32Even from the grave.
00:37:34Now, Detective.
00:37:37Tell me, do I need to contact an attorney?
00:37:47Oh, just let me know if you need any help.
00:37:51The Vestone.
00:37:53It's here.
00:37:55Yes.
00:37:57We just got that at an estate auction.
00:38:00Are you familiar with the Vestone, the Brock model?
00:38:03Very familiar.
00:38:05This was my grandfather's. He taught me how to play on it.
00:38:08Mr. Deeds was your grandfather?
00:38:10Yes.
00:38:12Sorry, I'm Carolyn.
00:38:14Carolyn Turner. I met Jennifer at the memorial rehearsal.
00:38:16Oh, I'm Dani. I'm her partner.
00:38:18Oh, great. I'm actually here because I need an appraisal on some of the items from the Deeds estate auction, including this piano.
00:38:25Oh.
00:38:27It's very nice of you.
00:38:29A bit awkward.
00:38:31Awkward, yes.
00:38:34And regrettable.
00:38:41You again.
00:38:42What's this?
00:38:43My letter of resignation as your tutor.
00:38:45Paragraph two cites your lack of cooperation, violating your academic probation.
00:38:49So have fun worming the bench.
00:38:51Wait, come on. You don't have to come down so heavy here.
00:38:54I don't want to.
00:38:56But if you're not willing to help yourself...
00:38:58Look, for me, I lose a paycheck.
00:39:00So what?
00:39:01But for you, your team, there's a whole lot more at stake here.
00:39:14You okay, hon?
00:39:16Oh, yeah. Yeah, I was just thinking.
00:39:19If we lived until we were 92, how many grandkids do you think we'll have?
00:39:25I have no idea.
00:39:29Did Carl Deeds ever talk about his family?
00:39:31No, I didn't know he had a family until I met Carolyn.
00:39:34Maybe they didn't heal that family rift.
00:39:38We are not going to let that happen here.
00:39:41We're going to stay connected.
00:39:43We're going to stay close.
00:39:45And whatever we have at the end of the journey, it's going to stay in the family.
00:39:50Deal.
00:39:51Deal.
00:39:56Hello?
00:39:57Helen, are you okay?
00:39:59Oh, no.
00:40:01Are the police here?
00:40:03Helen, are you okay?
00:40:05Oh, no.
00:40:07Are the police there?
00:40:09Well, that's good.
00:40:11What? No. No, it's no trouble.
00:40:14Okay.
00:40:16That's Helen Bower. Someone broke into her house.
00:40:18The police are there, but I think she could use some hand-holding.
00:40:21Of course. Go.
00:40:24I was in bed when my dog Mimi heard a commotion.
00:40:29Ran downstairs, bit the thief, and ran him off.
00:40:33But not before he did some damage.
00:40:35Helen, was anything taken?
00:40:37Not that I know of.
00:40:39Where is the sunset painting?
00:40:41Oh, it's tucked behind the couch.
00:40:43I was going to hang it tomorrow.
00:41:00Frank?
00:41:02Can I see the back of that for a second?
00:41:04Sure.
00:41:11The canvas stretcher on the sunset painting is thicker than this one.
00:41:14Can we take this out of the frame?
00:41:16Yeah, let's see. Let's break it out.
00:41:24There's a whole other painting in here.
00:41:30Oh, wow.
00:41:33I think this is a Hermann Herzog.
00:41:37An original Hermann Herzog.
00:41:39And if it is original,
00:41:42this painting is worth ten times what Helen paid for these other two paintings.
00:41:51What do you think?
00:41:53I mean, you would have to take it to a professional to get it authenticated,
00:41:57but given the linen canvas, the layers of paint, and the signature of the artist,
00:42:01I think it's a genuine Hermann Herzog.
00:42:04I'm surprised Conrad Siles never caught this.
00:42:07But then again, not everyone has your eye.
00:42:11Frank, these paintings came from the Dietz estate.
00:42:14If anyone knew a masterpiece was being concealed, it would be...
00:42:17Carl Dietz.
00:42:19And obviously someone else as well.
00:42:21What about that Caspar David Friedrich painting?
00:42:24You ask me?
00:42:26I think that auctioneer is up to no good.
00:42:36Bonjour, Sergeants.
00:42:38We want Jacques.
00:42:40I was the same thing as you.
00:42:42Everything that Carl Dietz neglected to place on the auction table.
00:42:47Missing art, missing antiquities, missing jewels.
00:42:53Come, Sergeants, our interests here could be benefited mutually, no?
00:42:58Unless you prefer to continue being the minion of that charlatan, Conrad Siles.
00:43:06Well, think about it.
00:43:09A bientot, Sergeants.
00:43:22A bientot, Sergeants.
00:43:52A bientot, Sergeants.
00:44:23Find anything new, sir?
00:44:25I have here a letter written by Dietz's daughter Helga...
00:44:29a little more than three months ago, shortly before her passing.
00:44:33She outright rejects her father's offer to reconcile their differences...
00:44:37or to have her or her daughter Caroline reinstated in his will.
00:44:42That certainly heads off any lawsuit coming your way.
00:44:45Yes.
00:44:47She says here, and I quote...
00:44:50I do not want your precious piano...
00:44:53and I will not have Caroline made liable for your ill-gotten gains.
00:44:58If you had any integrity left at all, you will make amends...
00:45:01and offer restitution to those you have wronged.
00:45:04Then maybe we can all die in peace.
00:45:08It's the vest owned to Brock Player Piano, Dwyer.
00:45:11It must contain the key to Dietz's hidden vault.
00:45:14That's why Jacques René broke into Dean Connick's shop.
00:45:17Makes sense.
00:45:19Yes, but now he's wanted by the police, which gives us the advantage.
00:45:23Are you suggesting liberating another item?
00:45:26You have a problem with that?
00:45:28No.
00:45:30I have a problem with that.
00:45:32What is it?
00:45:34Are you suggesting liberating another item?
00:45:37You have a problem with that?
00:45:39No, sir.
00:45:41I believe you'll find the piano in a shop called Rags to Riches.
00:45:46By the way, how's the arm?
00:45:48Could probably use a few stitches.
00:45:50Yes, we'll see to it.
00:45:52I want this taken care of as quickly as possible, Dwyer.
00:45:55We've already missed one opportunity here. Do not fail.
00:45:59No, sir.
00:46:05It's a good find.
00:46:07How can we be certain it belonged to Dietz?
00:46:09Well, it was found in his piano bench.
00:46:11The contents are written in German and it's Dietz's handwriting.
00:46:14Well, I compared some notes that he scribbled onto Jason's recital hall blueprints.
00:46:18Okay. I'm convinced.
00:46:21Do you know the dates, places?
00:46:25Berlin, Dresden, Leipzig?
00:46:28And names. Some of them famous artists.
00:46:31Goya, Menzel, Delacroix. Oh, and look here.
00:46:36Casper, David Friedrich, and Hermann Herzog.
00:46:40So this is what Jacques was after.
00:46:43Why don't you think about it?
00:46:46So this is what Jacques was after.
00:46:49Why didn't you say so, Inspector?
00:46:52Frank, what's wrong?
00:46:54Jacques? He lied to me, Jen.
00:46:56I found out that he's actually ex-EMCA.
00:46:59He had been fired over a year ago for using excessive force on suspects connected to an art theft case.
00:47:05Specifically, the Karl Dietz case.
00:47:07However, I did find out that he was recently hired by the Stolen Art Recovery League.
00:47:14Ever heard of them?
00:47:15Yes, they were formed towards the end of World War II.
00:47:17They're responsible for recovering hundreds of lost and stolen artworks.
00:47:21Who knows? Maybe he used them as a cover for his own agenda.
00:47:26What I do know is I don't trust the guy.
00:47:29Nor have I been able to locate him again.
00:47:32Good news?
00:47:34We have both the Herzog and Friedrich paintings logged in here.
00:47:38So that gives me due cause to get a search warrant for the Siles auction records.
00:47:45SILES AUCTION RECORDS
00:48:04Here we go.
00:48:06That's probably what's going to happen.
00:48:08Oh, finally.
00:48:15SILES AUCTION RECORDS
00:48:19Sorry for the early hour, Mr. Dwyer.
00:48:22Cold. Rang the bell. No answer.
00:48:24Well, Mr. Siles is a heavy sleeper.
00:48:27Especially after a couple glasses of port.
00:48:30What's this about, sir?
00:48:34I have a warrant signed by Judge Mallory to search all records pertaining to the Dietz estate auction.
00:48:42You'll find everything is in order.
00:48:54Mr. Siles!
00:48:57Mr. Siles!
00:49:00Call it in.
00:49:03Do you have a permit for that gun?
00:49:06Arms out, away from your sights.
00:49:13Something wrong with your arm there, Mr. Dwyer.
00:49:16That's just some tendinitis.
00:49:18You wouldn't mind rolling up your sleeve.
00:49:29Hmm.
00:49:31Meet any dogs lately?
00:49:34Cuff him.
00:49:43SILES AUCTION RECORDS
00:49:49Got a hold of your military jacket here, Sergeant.
00:49:53Let's have a look.
00:49:56Four tours in Iraq.
00:49:59But a special detachment charged with securing and protecting high-value art and antiques in combat zones.
00:50:06That's why Mr. Siles hired you.
00:50:08I didn't kill him.
00:50:09What will that ballistics weigh in on that?
00:50:11You are wasting your time.
00:50:14I hear that a lot.
00:50:16For the record, where were you last night?
00:50:18Besides the Eastside Urgent Care Clinic.
00:50:21Yeah, I have the treatment summary right here.
00:50:25Hmm. Really glad you got that dog bite taken care of.
00:50:29Anyway, last night?
00:50:32I had a beer. Petey's Tavern.
00:50:34Oh, yes. The local Marine Corps watering hole.
00:50:38Hmm. You've read me my rights.
00:50:41When do I get my phone call?
00:50:43Just a few more questions.
00:50:46Did Carl Dietz ever ask your boss to handle any artwork of questionable providence?
00:50:51Not that I'm aware of.
00:50:53What was inside the empty letterbox?
00:50:55I'm guessing letters.
00:50:58Belonging to Dietz or Siles?
00:51:00No idea.
00:51:01Hmm. Here's my guess.
00:51:05They belong to Dietz.
00:51:07Something had to clue your boss in as to the whereabouts of the Herzog painting?
00:51:12How else would he have known to ask you to steal it back?
00:51:18Lawyer.
00:51:20Right.
00:51:22Thought so.
00:51:28So, I've been suspended. Happy now?
00:51:31No. You know, it's not too late to turn your situation around.
00:51:35I have your schedule here.
00:51:37And I noticed that you have an hour between two of your morning classes and an hour between two of your afternoon classes.
00:51:44As well as an hour lunch break.
00:51:46That gives us at least three hours a day to work together and get you back up to speed.
00:51:51I have given you my game plan. What's yours?
00:52:01Wait.
00:52:04You sure you can stay on me for three hours a day?
00:52:08As long as they're paying me.
00:52:22Dr. Tramiel.
00:52:23Ah, Jennifer. I got your text. Oh, thank you.
00:52:25Sorry, I only have a minute. Busy day. People just dying to get in here.
00:52:30So, who are we visiting today?
00:52:34Oh, going once. Going twice. And, um...
00:52:42Two close-range gunshot wounds. That's personal, isn't it?
00:52:46Well, you can read into it however you like. And you can check with ballistics if you want specifics. They got the bullets.
00:52:52Anything else?
00:52:54Carl Dietz. Detective Linwood said you concluded he died from cardiac arrest.
00:52:58Well, pulmonary embolism has been known to trigger such things.
00:53:01Even in elderly people with chronic heart failure?
00:53:04Why not?
00:53:05Then why are you holding on to the body?
00:53:07Oh, you are a crafty one. Sorry. Time's up.
00:53:12Oh, just two more questions. I'm assuming you have a copy of Carl Dietz's hospital records.
00:53:17Yes. One down, one to go.
00:53:20Would you mind telling me who he put down for his emergency contact?
00:53:23Jennifer, shame on you. That would be a violation of doctor-patient confidentiality.
00:53:27Even if the patient is dead?
00:53:29Touché. Mr. Dietz's emergency contact was, uh...
00:53:34What do you know?
00:53:37Conrad Siles.
00:53:39All right. You win.
00:53:41I am holding on to Mr. Dietz's body because I'm still nagged by the fact that his ventricular assist machine didn't sound the alarm sooner.
00:53:49This is a digital readout of his cardiogram and O2 sat readings recorded at the time in question.
00:53:58Uh, see how his heart rate moved sharply into a-fib here?
00:54:02That's probably when the embolism struck.
00:54:04When did the alarm go off?
00:54:06Here. Eighteen seconds later.
00:54:08Which suggests that there was a glitch in the machinery.
00:54:12Or perhaps sabotage.
00:54:14Oh, you just had to go there.
00:54:17Well, the alarms on these machines can be switched on and off, right?
00:54:20No.
00:54:21Just saying.
00:54:24Hey, Frank. What's up?
00:54:27Hey, Jen. I thought you should know the ballistics reports came back.
00:54:31Mars Barretta is not a match for the bullets that killed Siles.
00:54:34Well, you can still charge him with the break-in at Helen's, right?
00:54:37Yes, I'm confident we can get an indictment there once the lab finishes processing all the key evidence.
00:54:42Bad news? Barmaid bail.
00:54:45Oh, no.
00:54:46Afraid so.
00:54:47So, the screenshots you sent me?
00:54:51The logos match.
00:54:53Means that Dietz was an officer in an East German security service.
00:54:58I had thought after my interview with Jacques that, well, maybe Dietz was a cop before he was a diplomat.
00:55:03Maybe a corrupt cop.
00:55:05Jacques said Dietz abused the power and privilege that was bestowed upon him.
00:55:09It could be.
00:55:12I mean, at the very least, you know, Dietz's journal appears to be a log for stolen artifacts.
00:55:18It's just so hard to believe after everything he's done for the community.
00:55:22Yeah, I know.
00:55:24How's the research going on the Herzog painting?
00:55:26Well, according to the Stolen Arts Recovery League, it went missing soon after the war.
00:55:30Interesting. And then there's Mrs. Bower's claim regarding the Casper David Friedrich provenance.
00:55:35You know what? I'm going to find a German translator to break all this down.
00:55:40Frank, there's something bothering me about Dietz's death and the timing of all of this.
00:55:45Would you mind if I took a look around his house?
00:55:55Okay, don't touch anything.
00:55:57What, am I new?
00:56:01You know what? The IV pump had three lines.
00:56:05One for saline, one for abrobidine, I think that's how you say it, and dopamine for pain.
00:56:13Where did you say the nurse's call button was found?
00:56:16Um, beside the bed, right next to a syringe wrapper and an end cap.
00:56:24On the table there, there's three syringes, one of them used in CPR, a Heparin injection.
00:56:31Was the wrapper a match to the one on the floor?
00:56:35Well, let's see, you've got a photo here.
00:56:45That's interesting. A generic wrapper.
00:56:49Hey, Frank. Take a look at this. Looks like there's a puncture mark on this tube.
00:56:56Circular. Very clean. Looks like it could have been done by a needle.
00:57:05Okay, this is just a theory, but could someone have come in and turned off the alarm?
00:57:10And given Mr. Dietz an unscheduled injection?
00:57:13Dr. Trammell said it was a pulmonary embolism that triggered cardiac arrest.
00:57:17Well, if what you're saying is true, we're not just talking about a heart failure.
00:57:21We're looking at premeditated murder.
00:57:42Bonjour, Mrs. Shannon.
00:57:44Inspector Grenier. How did you get in here?
00:57:49How did you get in here?
00:57:51There is a front door.
00:57:52Which was locked.
00:57:53Was it? If so, not very well.
00:57:56My friend, Detective Linwood, is looking for you.
00:57:58I'm sure. I understand you have recovered a Herzog painting.
00:58:03I do have my sources.
00:58:05Through the EMCA, right? I have my sources, too.
00:58:09Well, I would very much like to finish my examining of your Gaston piano.
00:58:14And the music scroll. Zero grade.
00:58:17Why?
00:58:18It pertains to a case I'm working on.
00:58:21A case involving the late Karl Dietz?
00:58:23It was his piano. Stands to reason.
00:58:27You know, I think you know more than you're letting on.
00:58:30I know that Mr. Dietz was a former East German policeman.
00:58:33How corrupt was Ishak?
00:58:36The man betrayed everyone in his path.
00:58:38Including members of his criminal organization.
00:58:41Now, may I?
00:58:45I would feel better if Detective Linwood was here.
00:58:48I have him on speed dial. We can make an appointment.
00:58:51I'm sorry, but I prefer to pursue this investigation on my own.
00:58:54And I would prefer if Detective Linwood were here.
00:59:09So Ishak's still around, huh?
00:59:11Still on the hunt.
00:59:13You have to know where he's staying.
00:59:15No, but I got the make, model, and license plate of his rental car.
00:59:19That's very well done.
00:59:22By the way, our CTs found evidence that the ground floor window of the auction house had been jimmied.
00:59:29From there, the assailant would have made their way up to Siles' study.
00:59:33I think we're looking at a real pro here.
00:59:35Not to mention a killer.
00:59:37Speaking of, Dr. Tramiel has now changed the cause of death for Colonel Dietz.
00:59:42He's now saying that the embolism was purposely induced by an air bubble,
00:59:47most likely by a wine-bore syringe.
00:59:50You know, a double homicide on my hands?
00:59:53Very unhappy, Mayor.
01:00:01Guys!
01:00:03We need to feed off from the top of the key.
01:00:05And cross-court pass to the corners.
01:00:07Hey, hey, hey, what in the wide, wide world of sports is going on here?
01:00:11Uh, they're just helping me with my homework, Coach.
01:00:14Your homework?
01:00:15Yes, sir.
01:00:16This is a statistical analysis of all their shooting percentages and best passing lanes.
01:00:21And you took it upon yourself to work up some new plays?
01:00:24Based on these stats here, yes.
01:00:30I like what I'm seeing here, but give me the whistle.
01:00:33Give me.
01:00:37All right, guys, run the play. Let me see it. Let's go.
01:01:04She was so good.
01:01:06Jason, you did an incredible job with this place.
01:01:10I forgot how much I love the theater.
01:01:12Do you remember when we were seniors and I was the lighting designer and the stage manager?
01:01:16Hello, do you remember that kiss we shared in the catwalk?
01:01:19I knew you'd go there.
01:01:20You guys, I'll meet you outside.
01:01:22I'm just going to talk to Carolyn.
01:01:27Carolyn, I just wanted to say thank you.
01:01:31Carolyn, I just wanted to say that that was wonderful.
01:01:34It's such a beautiful performance.
01:01:37And I know this might not be the right time or place, but I'd like to talk to you about the piano that you bought at the auction.
01:01:42Yes, my partner Danny did mention that.
01:01:44I'm sorry, it's been a really emotional time and I don't know how else to say this, but I'd like to get back some of my family heirlooms, especially that piano.
01:01:51I'm willing to make a very fair offer.
01:01:53Well, as you know, I did promise the piano to a client, but let me call him and see what I can do.
01:02:00That would mean so much to me.
01:02:03Of course.
01:02:04Your grandfather would be proud.
01:02:16You want your inheritance?
01:02:20I can help.
01:02:22What is this?
01:02:23I have information. You have information.
01:02:27We could partner up.
01:02:29I don't know what you're talking about.
01:02:41I'll just give that to you.
01:02:43Miss Turner.
01:02:44Yes?
01:02:45Detective Linwood. I got your voicemail.
01:02:47Thank you for seeing me.
01:02:48Yeah, no problem.
01:02:49So you had a run in with Mr. Dwyer at the recital hall.
01:02:52I read in the papers this morning that his boss was found murdered.
01:02:56Should I be concerned?
01:02:57I've already contacted his attorney about the altercation you two had.
01:03:00He's being issued a summons.
01:03:02I'm beginning to think it's time for me to get back to my job at the CDC, Detective.
01:03:06Battling plague outbreaks seems a lot safer than sticking around here.
01:03:09Alright, well we're on it. Not to worry.
01:03:13I've got to take this.
01:03:15Hey Jan, thanks for calling back.
01:03:17It seems that Dwyer has been stalking Dietz's granddaughter.
01:03:20She filed a restraining order.
01:03:22Oh no.
01:03:24What happened to Jacques?
01:03:26A slippery Frenchman.
01:03:28I don't know what to make of the guy.
01:03:30On the one hand, he lied to me.
01:03:32On the other hand, he actually checks out.
01:03:35In fact, I just received an official request from the Stolen Art Recovery League
01:03:38to hand over the Herzog painting to him.
01:03:41You know I don't trust him.
01:03:42Actually, you know, I've got to go.
01:03:44Okay, I'll talk to you later.
01:03:45Okay.
01:03:48So Helen will be by to pick up the dresden tomorrow.
01:03:50And I tucked Jason's blueprints down there.
01:03:53Oh, thank you.
01:03:55What's wrong with this picture? Why am I not hearing music?
01:03:58Gene!
01:04:00It's so good to see you.
01:04:02How about some Brahms?
01:04:04The perfect antidote for a migraine.
01:04:06Oh, I would like you to sign this for me.
01:04:08How about some Brahms? The perfect antidote for a migraine.
01:04:11Oh, I would like you to meet my chauffeur slash virtuoso caregiver, Howie Nash.
01:04:16I think his bedside guitar picking has worked miracles.
01:04:21Nice to meet you, Howie.
01:04:23Gene, shouldn't you be home though, taking it easy?
01:04:25And what do you know about that?
01:04:27Touché.
01:04:29So, does it work?
01:04:31Well, it did at auction, but I haven't tried it since it was vandalized at your store.
01:04:36Brahms, was it?
01:04:37Always a good place to start.
01:04:39Oh, you know what? I'm a little partial to Mozart.
01:04:41Fantasia in D minor, if you don't mind.
01:04:43Let me do that for you.
01:04:45Oh, thank you. It's right there on the left.
01:04:50You see prongs on each side of the window there?
01:04:54Okay.
01:04:56It should pop right in.
01:05:04Oh, so that's how you do it.
01:05:05Boy, we had that really wrong.
01:05:07Yeah, really wrong.
01:05:09And the switch is right below the keyboard to your right.
01:05:13All set?
01:05:16Ooh!
01:05:18Oh, what is that?
01:05:20Fragile people here.
01:05:24Huh.
01:05:26Maybe I put it in wrong.
01:05:28Do you mind if I take a look at that for a second?
01:05:32Gene, look at this.
01:05:33The Mozart looks like it's on different paper stock.
01:05:36Oh, it's definitely newer paper.
01:05:38Maybe a few years old, as opposed to the Brahms, which was yellow at the time.
01:05:41Could it be from a different piano, maybe? A newer model?
01:05:44Possibly.
01:05:46But why would the rolls be in with these?
01:05:48This was Dietz's favorite piece.
01:05:50He taught it to his daughter, his granddaughter.
01:05:52I think this is here for a reason.
01:05:55A mystery wrapped up in Mozart.
01:05:57You gotta love it.
01:05:59Dean, I better get you home.
01:06:00What?
01:06:02Oh, come on, things are just starting to get interesting.
01:06:04I promised your doctors.
01:06:06Say so long.
01:06:08So long, everyone.
01:06:10Dean, I'm glad you're doing well.
01:06:12So am I.
01:06:14We're outta here.
01:06:16Bye.
01:06:18Listen, I'm gonna take off too.
01:06:20We have dinner reservations. Are you okay to lock up?
01:06:22I am fine. You have fun.
01:06:24Okay.
01:06:31Hey, Jen.
01:06:33Hey, guys. What a nice surprise.
01:06:35We thought we'd stop by before the big game.
01:06:37Oh, that's right. Good luck, Logan.
01:06:39Oh, you won't need any luck.
01:06:41According to Coach Byers, Logan's come up with a winning game plan.
01:06:44Yeah. Tell me that after the final buzzer.
01:06:49What's this?
01:06:51Well, it's supposed to be Mozart's Fantasia in D minor, but turns out it's just a bunch of noise.
01:06:56I'm fairly certain there's a code embedded in here.
01:07:00I just don't know how to figure it out.
01:07:02Do you have any other authentic rolls of music?
01:07:04I do. I have a piece by Brahms.
01:07:06Well, then print off the Brahms sheet music off the internet,
01:07:09and, you know, mark down the correct notes alongside each perforation.
01:07:13And that way I can cross-reference to see which note each perforation represents.
01:07:19Logan, you are a genius.
01:07:21What if the piece is written in D minor?
01:07:23Well, then D would represent the number 1, and E the number 2, you know, so on and so forth.
01:07:29What about sharps and flats?
01:07:31It could be letters.
01:07:33Yeah, D sharp could represent the letter A.
01:07:36Or maybe it's the first sharp or flat after D minor.
01:07:40I don't know. You'll have to play with it.
01:07:42And we have a game to play, so we should go.
01:07:44Right. So, good luck, Mom.
01:07:46Good luck to you too, Logan, and just have fun.
01:07:48Hannah. Hey, Hannah. You did it. I got a B.
01:07:53You did it, Rick.
01:07:55High five.
01:07:56Logan, you did it. I got a B.
01:07:59You did it, Rick.
01:08:01High five.
01:08:02High five.
01:08:25Logan.
01:08:27Brilliant. Well done.
01:08:29Thank you, sir.
01:08:30You got yourself quite the strategist here, Mr. Shannon.
01:08:32You told me I know it.
01:08:35What did I tell you?
01:08:37You stepped up, and you're the right person to do it.
01:08:40Thanks for the encouragement, Dad.
01:08:42And all the support. It means a lot.
01:08:45Anytime, son.
01:08:47Now, go on. Party with the guys.
01:08:50Woo!
01:08:54Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
01:08:57Woo!
01:09:01Sharps, flats.
01:09:04That comes before D minor. I think that's a C.
01:09:16Frank, Dwyer just broke into my store.
01:09:19Mr. Dwyer, I've called the police.
01:09:21Frank, are you there?
01:09:23I'm still here, Jen. Units are about a block away. I'll be arriving shortly.
01:09:31Frank.
01:09:37You're having all points out on Dwyer now.
01:09:39And I'm going to keep a patrol unit here at your shop.
01:09:41Do you want one at your residence?
01:09:43Absolutely. Thanks, Frank.
01:09:46Yeah, no problem.
01:09:48Hey, I hear congratulations are in order.
01:09:50Oh yeah, Logan's team won their first game.
01:09:52Hey, we'll give it my best.
01:09:54I will.
01:09:58Crack it yet, Mom?
01:10:00I hope so.
01:10:02I think I'm getting close, but there could be three lines of code.
01:10:05You see these two columns that are vertical right here?
01:10:07They're the only two grouped together on the entire roll.
01:10:10And the numbers in the letters, they match up perfectly.
01:10:12Hmm. Both alphanumeric.
01:10:16Wait.
01:10:18Those look just like GPS coordinates.
01:10:20You think?
01:10:22Hold on.
01:10:31Yep. See?
01:10:34Logan, that's Deet's recital hall.
01:10:38This is incredible.
01:10:40Do you have any idea what these numbers might be?
01:10:43Well, it's not longitude or latitude.
01:10:46There's not enough digits there.
01:10:48So, uh...
01:10:50Yeah, I haven't got a clue. Sorry, Mom.
01:10:52That's okay, Logan. You have been a big help.
01:10:54I'm going to grab your dad's set of blueprints from my store,
01:10:56and I'm going to call Frank. Thank you.
01:11:01Hi. Hi.
01:11:03Hi.
01:11:06Frank, I'm on my way to the recital hall.
01:11:08I hope you can meet me there.
01:11:31Bonjour, Miss Shannon.
01:11:33We meet again.
01:11:35So we do.
01:11:37The Herzog painting.
01:11:39Where is it?
01:11:41Safely in the hands of the Austrian consulate.
01:11:43Soon to be returned to its rightful heir.
01:11:45A Jewish family from Vienna.
01:11:47Whose parents had it taken from them
01:11:49during the Anschluss of 1938.
01:11:51That's good news.
01:11:54So what are you doing here, besides stalking me?
01:11:56Stalking? No, Madame.
01:11:58I am merely here to offer assistance.
01:12:01You see, Karl Dietz was not the only one.
01:12:04To keep a journal.
01:12:07Detective Linwood indicated to my superiors
01:12:10that you found his journal,
01:12:12so I thought now would be a good time to compare notes.
01:12:15Now, do any of these names or dates,
01:12:19artists, look familiar?
01:12:22No.
01:12:23Goya, Menzel.
01:12:28You knew about the Caspar David Friedrich?
01:12:31Well, I did not just merely sit behind the desk
01:12:35at the EMCA for all those years.
01:12:38Now, what brought you here with your husband's blueprints?
01:12:45Of course.
01:12:47It's perfect.
01:12:49The recital hall.
01:12:50And Dietz helped to make it.
01:12:52And the piano? Did the piano have a map?
01:12:56A code.
01:12:58In a piano roll.
01:13:00Mozart's Fantasia in D minor.
01:13:03I knew it!
01:13:05I knew it!
01:13:07Let me show you.
01:13:09This is the data entry.
01:13:11These are shipping and creating services.
01:13:13Cargo container ID numbers.
01:13:15I traced them all back to a time
01:13:17when Karl Dietz was a NATO liaison.
01:13:18You see, his diplomatic status allowed him
01:13:21to bypass US customs.
01:13:23I believe he used his privilege
01:13:25to smuggle art and stolen jewels out of Germany
01:13:29into this country piece by piece.
01:13:31So that's how he did it.
01:13:33Yes. However, a few years ago,
01:13:35the EMCA received an anonymous tip,
01:13:37which I believe came from Dietz's daughter Helga.
01:13:39But before the FBI could file a search warrant,
01:13:43Dietz hid his stolen goods.
01:13:45But where?
01:13:47That was always the mystery.
01:13:49Now, what's out in D minor directed you here?
01:13:56I think the lock on this stage door might be broken.
01:13:59Follow me.
01:14:16I guess Jason fixed the lock.
01:14:18Well, he is efficient.
01:14:20Allow me, madame,
01:14:22sometimes to catch a thief,
01:14:25you have to play the thief.
01:14:33Voila.
01:14:46This first set of numbers.
01:14:51It's too short to be a tracking number or a zip code.
01:14:58There has to be some correlation to the recital hall.
01:15:08Jacques, my husband said that Karl Dietz
01:15:11had his own specialist who did the acoustics,
01:15:13the stage flooring and the VIP seats.
01:15:19Here's Karl Dietz's chair.
01:15:21B-9.
01:15:23S-L-R-1.
01:15:25B-9, of course.
01:15:27It's stage left, row 1, B-9.
01:15:29We have a match.
01:15:34Hey.
01:15:36There is an electrical conduit running under each seat.
01:15:40Perhaps it's just for the light.
01:15:41Wait a minute.
01:15:43It looks like there might be a switch down here.
01:16:00Allow me, madame.
01:16:09Karl Dietz's vault.
01:16:12At last.
01:16:14Bless you, Miss Shannon.
01:16:16Our words cannot express how I feel.
01:16:19You must understand, this is what my life,
01:16:22what my work is all about.
01:16:24Restitution.
01:16:26Oui.
01:16:28Restitution.
01:16:35Wait a minute.
01:16:41Oh, here it is.
01:16:43The original Mozart Fantasia in D minor,
01:16:47which confirms that Karl Dietz manufactured the other one.
01:16:52Oh, wait a minute.
01:16:55It's Carolyn.
01:16:57Carolyn.
01:16:59She had to have known.
01:17:01That's why she's been on me to buy back the Vestone.
01:17:03Actually,
01:17:05I've always hated that wheezing excuse for a piano.
01:17:09But thanks to you, Jennifer,
01:17:12I now have my inheritance.
01:17:15Which you assumed was yours all along, didn't you?
01:17:19I mean, you had
01:17:21a letter from your grandfather to your mother
01:17:24informing her that you had been reinstated in his will.
01:17:31But after your mother died,
01:17:33after you returned from overseas,
01:17:36you suddenly found out that things had changed.
01:17:39That your mother and grandfather didn't heal their rift.
01:17:43And that your grandfather decided to sell his estate for charity,
01:17:46leaving you cut off once again.
01:17:48Yes?
01:17:53What's he doing?
01:17:56Who are you?
01:18:01You're
01:18:03haunting me to the grave, you and all the others.
01:18:06So you decided to retaliate.
01:18:09And you ended his life.
01:18:11He was a horrible man who had outlived his usefulness.
01:18:14And you had what you needed.
01:18:16His letter to your mother
01:18:18and the clue to his hidden treasure,
01:18:20the player piano.
01:18:22Which is why you broke into my friend's shop and assaulted him.
01:18:37But your search was cut short when Howie Nash arrived.
01:18:40You had to get out of there in a hurry.
01:18:44Then things became more urgent
01:18:46when you learned the Herzog painting had been found,
01:18:48tucked away inside a relatively worthless piece of art.
01:18:50Yes, well, according to mother,
01:18:52Grandpa was a very clever smuggler.
01:18:54You mean criminal.
01:18:56Do I look like I care?
01:18:58Jacques was right. Things did get much more urgent
01:19:00because you realized that Siles
01:19:02had secured everything in your grandfather's library,
01:19:04including his personal correspondence.
01:19:06I believe there was another letter
01:19:08from your mother to your grandfather.
01:19:10One in which she outright rejected
01:19:12his offer of an inheritance.
01:19:14Now you're just speculating.
01:19:16Am I?
01:19:18Then why weren't you listed as next of kin
01:19:20on his hospital papers?
01:19:22Your mother wanted nothing to do with your grandfather.
01:19:24And the irony is,
01:19:26she was trying to protect you from his crimes.
01:19:29But when you realized Siles
01:19:31had her letter,
01:19:33you couldn't afford
01:19:34to let him expose that.
01:19:41Collateral damage, I'm afraid.
01:19:43As are you.
01:19:45Shut the hatch.
01:19:54All right, let's go.
01:19:56Stage right, if you will.
01:19:58Come on, go.
01:20:00May I ask you what led you to the Mozart in D minor?
01:20:02Mother's letter to Grandpa.
01:20:04Thanks for cracking the code, by the way.
01:20:06Your mother was the one who contacted the MCAs.
01:20:08Yes.
01:20:10She was the one who wanted everything
01:20:12returned to its rightful owner.
01:20:14Mother always had a wayward sense of morality.
01:20:16Where's yours, Miss Turner?
01:20:24Jen!
01:20:26Are you two all right?
01:20:28Yes, yes, we're...
01:20:30Magnifique.
01:20:32Oui.
01:20:36Helen!
01:20:38Jennifer.
01:20:40Lovely to see you.
01:20:42Lovely to see you.
01:20:44How is my husband's driving?
01:20:46Excellent.
01:20:48Right in here.
01:20:50Oh, my.
01:20:52Jennifer, what's going on here?
01:20:54It's not my birthday.
01:20:56Helen, I would like you to meet Inspector Jacques Rene.
01:20:58It's a pleasure, madame.
01:20:59He used to work for the European Ministry of Criminal Affairs,
01:21:01but now he is with the Lost Art Recovery League.
01:21:04He's responsible for tracking down
01:21:06a lot of the artwork that Mr. Dietz illegally confiscated.
01:21:09Still so shocking.
01:21:11Hard to believe.
01:21:13Fortunately, the DNA was a match to Carolyn
01:21:15in the syringe wrapper found in her grandfather's bedroom.
01:21:17The DA will be indicting her for murder.
01:21:19Oh, and as far as Mr. Dwyer is concerned,
01:21:21he was found and apprehended.
01:21:23He will be facing burglary charges.
01:21:25Well, now for some even better news.
01:21:27Logan, since you helped crack the code,
01:21:29would you like to do the honors?
01:21:36Recognize this, Mrs. Bauer?
01:21:38Of course.
01:21:40The prominence was forged, Helen.
01:21:42Jacques and I found the original
01:21:44certificate of ownership in Mr. Dietz's files.
01:21:46It belonged to, and still belongs to,
01:21:48the Bauer family.
01:21:50Oh, my goodness.
