Emma Fielding Mysteries (2017) s01e01 Episode Script

[♪♪♪]
PROFESSOR FIELDING,
WE FOUND SOMETHING.
REALLY?
OH
LET'S TAKE A LOOK.
OH
WHAT DO YOU THINK,
PROFESSOR?
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
KIND OF
LOOKS LIKE
A SPOON.
SURE DOES.
SILVER?
YEP.
DEFINITELY SILVER.
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY
HOW OLD?
MAYBE 1710.
[EVERYONE SIGHS]
HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY!
WE'VE ONLY BEEN HERE A WEEK,
AND WE'VE ALREADY FOUND
A 300-YEAR-OLD ARTIFACT.
STILL A HUNDRED YEARS
AFTER THE COLONY AT JAMESTOWN
WAS ESTABLISHED.
OKAY, GUYS,
IF ARCHAEOLOGY
TEACHES US ANYTHING,
IT'S PATIENCE.
MY FATHER SPEN
THE LAST 25 YEARS OF HIS LIFE
LOOKING
FOR THIS LOST COLONY.
THIS SPOON IS A SIGN.
IT'S FLASHING "YOU'RE CLOSE.
KEEP DIGGING."
THIS IS GOOD NEWS.
OKAY.
WHO WANTS TO DO THE HONORS?
GO AHEAD.
[GIGGLING]
[EMMA]:
NOW THAT IT'S COMPLETE EXPOSED,
CAREY CAN GENTLY REMOVE
THE ARTIFACT.
[EMMA]:
OKAY, NOW.
CLOSE YOUR EYES.
KNOW THAT YOU ARE
THE FIRST PERSON
IN THREE CENTURIES
TO HOLD THAT SPOON.
IMAGINE THE VERY BEGINNINGS
OF A COLONY
THE MEN CLEARING BRUSH,
SURVEYING THE LAND,
MAPPING THE SETTLEMENT
THE WOMEN SETTING UP
AN OUTDOOR SCHOOL
AND PRESERVING FOOD
FOR THE COMING WINTER.
THE LAST PERSON WHO HELD THA
LIVED AND LOVED
AND FELT SUFFERING AND JOY.
WHAT YOU'RE HOLDING
IN YOUR HAND
IS SOMEONE'S
LIFE STORY.
THAT'S WHAT WE DO!
THAT'S WHAT WE DO.
WE FIND CLUES
ABOUT LIVES LIVED LONG AGO.
SO LET'S KEEP DIGGING!
THERE ARE STORIES UNDERGROUND,
JUST WAITING TO BE DISCOVERED.
HEY, YOUR MOM SHOWED ME
AROUND THE OTHER DAY.
SHE HAS REALLY GOOD TASTE.
PAULINE'S ACTUALLY
MY STEP-MOM,
SO, OBVIOUSLY,
MY DAD HAD GOOD TASTE, TOO.
WELL, THE FIRST TIME
I SAW OSCAR FIELDING,
I WAS LOOKING
THROUGH MY WINDOW,
AND I SAW
THIS STRIKINGLY HANDSOME MAN
WANDERING THROUGH MY FIELDS,
CARRYING A SHOVEL,
AND TALKING TO HIMSELF
ABOUT A LOST COLONY.
I FELL IN LOVE WITH HIM
RIGHT THEN AND THERE.
AND NOW HERE YOU ARE,
BACK IN MY FIELD,
CONTINUING THE WORK
THAT BROUGHT HIM HERE
IN THE FIRST PLACE.
SO, ANY PROGRESS TODAY?
GETTING CLOSER.
OH, WOW!
[EMMA]: YEAH!
WOULD YOU PLEASE PUT THIS
IN DAD'S OLD LAB?
I'VE GOT TO GE
THE KIDS BACK.
OKAY, I WILL.
THANK YOU.
'KAY, GUYS, DON'T FORGE
TO UPDATE YOUR NOTES,
AND, YES, THEY WILL COUN
WHEN WE GET BACK TO CAMPUS.
YOU KNOW, WE WOULD HAVE
GOTTEN TO THAT SPOON
A LOT SOONER
IF WE'D HAVE SENT UP
THE THERMAL-IMAGING DRONE.
YOU WANT TO SEE THE BEST TOOL
IN AN ARCHAEOLOGIST'S KIT?
[CLATTERING]
EMMA
I HEARD YOU WERE
BACK IN TOWN.
BEEN WONDERING
WHEN I'D SEE YOU.
IT'S NIKKI.
MY DAD USED TO
RUN THE GARAGE!
RIGHT, NIKKI!
OH, I'M SORRY.
IT'S JUST BEEN SO LONG.
WELL, YOU'VE
HARDLY CHANGED.
APPARENTLY, YOU CAN'T SAY
THE SAME THING ABOUT ME.
OH, NIKKI, I
[MAN]:
HEY, GORGEOUS.
HEY.
WHAT'S SPECIAL?
MY SHIFT ENDS AT NINE.
IF YOU'RE FREE,
MAYBE WE COULD
EXCUSE ME A SEC.
EMMA FIELDING.
WILL!
[LAUGHS]
WHAT BRINGS YOU
BACK HERE?
WORK.
I'M DOING A DIG.
I DIDN'T EXPEC
TO SEE YOU.
OH, YOU KNOW, JUST
WASHED UP WITH THE TIDE.
LAST I HEARD,
YOU WERE IN FLORIDA.
YEAH, ACTUALLY.
I JUST CAME BACK
A FEW MONTHS AGO.
DOING SALVAGE, RIGHT?
UH, WELL
UNDERWATER EXPLORATION
FOR A PETROLEUM COMPANY
UNTIL OIL PRICES DROPPED,
THEN ON TO SALVAGE, BUT
ANYWAY, WOKE UP ONE DAY
AND THEN SAID, IT'S TIME
TO MOVE BACK HOME.
I'M GLAD YOU DID.
IT'S SO GOOD TO SEE YOU.
YOU TOO.
SO, DO YOU FIND TIME
BETWEEN TEACHING CLASSES
AND RAIDING TOMBS
TO GET MARRIED
AND HAVE KIDS?
NOT MARRIED.
NO KIDS.
WELL, ACTUALLY, 11
MY DIG TEAM.
YOU?
LONG STORY,
TOO LONG,
BUT THE SKINNY
VERSION IS
WILL BRIGGS
IS RIDING SOLO,
AND, AS USUAL,
LOOKING TO REINVENT HIMSELF.
I'VE GOT TO SAY, COMING BACK
AND FINDING YOU HERE?
CHERRY ON THE SUNDAE.
OH, DON'T TALK TO ME
ABOUT CHERRIES.
THAT TIME WE ATE
A WHOLE BAG
YOUR MOM GO
TO PUT IN A PIE?
SHE STILL REMEMBERS THAT.
MY STOMACH REMEMBERS.
OH, MAN,
I COULDN'T WAIT FOR YOU
TO COME HERE EVERY SUMMER.
I REMEMBER, I USED
TO WRITE IT ON MY CALENDAR.
"EM-DAY."
FIVE MONTHS,
FOUR MONTHS, THREE MONTHS
AW, WE WERE SO YOUNG.
WE WERE TEENAGERS.
WE'RE NO
NOT-SO-YOUNG NOW.
UGH, TELL THA
TO MY STUDENTS.
HALF OF THEM THINK
I'M AN ANTIQUITY.
SO HOW LONG
ARE YOU HERE FOR?
SEVERAL WEEKS,
THEN BACK TO
KENZER COLLEGE.
I JUST HOPE I FIND PROOF
OF THE COLONY'S EXISTENCE
BEFORE THEN.
LOOK AT YOU, HUH?
PROFESSOR EMMA FIELDING.
THIS IS YOU?
YEAH.
GOOD.
HEY, SO LISTEN
YOU WANT TO DO
DINNER TOMORROW NIGHT?
WE SHOULDN'T GO ANOTHER 20 YEARS
WITHOUT RECONNECTING.
I'D LIKE THAT. SURE.
GOOD NIGHT.
GOOD NIGHT.
[MAN]: HEY! YOU GO
NO BUSINESS HERE.
WHAT?
YOU GO
NO BUSINESS HERE.
I REMEMBER YOU.
AUGIE, RIGHT?
WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE,
COMING BACK HERE
AND DIGGING THINGS UP,
THINGS THAT DON'
BELONG TO YOU?
HEY!
ARE YOU OKAY?
AUGIE!
AUGIE!
[PAULINE]:
EMMA?
OH, YOU'RE AN ANGEL
ON CAFFEINATED WINGS.
I TRY.
I HEAR YOU SAW
WILL BRIGGS LAST NIGHT.
VILLAGE NEWS FEED?
KNOWS ALL, SEES ALL.
YOU HAD QUITE A CRUSH
ON WILL ONCE, IF I RECALL.
I WAS A TEENAGER.
WORD IS, HE'S STILL
VERY ATTRACTIVE.
IT'S VERY SWEET OF YOU
TO BE INTERESTED
IN MY LOVE LIFE,
BUT AS YOU KNOW,
I'M HAPPILY SINGLE.
[PHONE BEEPS]
DO YOU REMEMBER
TONY MARKHAM?
HE WORKED
WITH YOUR FATHER.
YEAH, HE'S HEAD OF
MY DEPARTMENT NOW.
HE'S ON HIS WAY
TO OBSERVE
AND STAY OVERNIGHT.
TONY'S OKAY.
HE'S ALWAYS BEEN SUPPORTIVE,
AND VISITING DIG SITES
IS A PART OF HIS JOB.
IS HE STAYING AT THE MOTEL?
THAT'S THE
REAL PROBLEM.
WE'VE TAKEN
ALL THE AVAILABLE ROOMS,
AND TONY'S KIND OF PARTICULAR.
HMM.
HE CAN STAY IN MY GUEST ROOM,
I SUPPOSE,
IF THAT WOULD HELP YOU OUT?
REALLY?
HE WOULD LOVE THAT.
THANK YOU.
YOU'RE WELCOME,
BUT YOU KNOW I'D MUCH RATHER
HAVE YOU STAY HERE WITH ME.
I KNOW,
BUT I'M OLD-FASHIONED.
EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE POST-GRADS,
I FEEL LIKE I NEED
TO KEEP AN EYE ON MY KIDS.
ONE DAY, NO ONE'S
GOING TO BE DIGGING.
I MEAN,
THE TECHNOLOGY'S ALREADY THERE.
IT'LL BE DONE
THROUGH REMOTE SENSING,
TOTALLY NON-INVASIVE TECHNIQUES.
IT'LL BE SO REMOTE THA
YOU WON'T EVEN HAVE TO SHOW UP.
YOU'LL BE STARING AT A LAPTOP
IN YOUR PARENTS' BASEMEN
WHEN I CALL YOU
TO TELL YOU
I'VE MADE THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL
FIND OF THE CENTURY.
WITH YOUR TWO LITTLE HANDS,
RIGHT?
MM-HMM.
YOU'RE MORE LIKE
FIELDING EVERY DAY.
I ONLY WISH.
[MAN]: EMMA!
TONY.
GOOD TO SEE YOU.
THANK YOU.
I COULDN'T RESIS
COMING FOR A VISIT,
GIVEN WHAT WE HOPE
WE MAY HAVE BURIED HERE.
I'M SO GLAD YOU DID.
EVERYONE, YOU ALL KNOW
PROFESSOR MARKHAM, OF COURSE.
NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN, SIR.
WELL, NICE TO BE SEEN!
EMMA'S FATHER, OSCAR FIELDING,
WAS MY PROFESSOR,
AND HE TRULY WAS A GIAN
IN AMERICAN ARCHAEOLOGY.
NOW, THERE ARE THOSE
IN OUR FIELD
WHO DIDN'T BELIEVE HIS THEORY
OF A LOST COLONY,
BUT, WELL, THOSE OF US
WHO KNEW HIM
WERE MOVED BY HIS PASSION
AND SOMETHING THAT HIS
DAUGHTER INHERITED IN SPADES.
WOW, THAT WAS A TERRIBLE PUN.
I APOLOGIZE.
[LAUGHING]
GOING TO GIVE ME A TOUR?
SURE! SURE.
GREAT.
HAVE YOU FOUND
ANYTHING INTERESTING?
WE'VE MADE A FEW
18TH-CENTURY FINDS.
THAT'S SOMETHING.
I FEEL THE CLOCK TICKING.
I'D LIKE TO BE MOVING
A BIT FASTER.
WELL, I ALWAYS
FEEL THAT WAY.
WHAT IS IT?
HEY, DID
DID ANYONE COME BACK
LAST NIGHT?
NO.
NO.
SOMETHING'S NOT RIGHT.
THIS GROUND HAS BEEN
FRESHLY TURNED.
[GASPS]
OH, MY GOODNESS.
OH, NO.
SOMEBODY CALL 9-1-1.
YOU GO IT.
AUGIE
[SHERIFF] ALL RIGHT THEN,
I'LL FIND OUT.
EMMA?
EXCUSE ME.
THE CORONER'S OFFICE
HAS A FEW QUESTIONS
[MAN]:
EXCUSE ME.
SPECIAL AGENT JIM CONNOR.
I'M PART OF A RAPID
DEPLOYMENT TEAM
THAT DEALS
WITH THEFT, FORGERY,
AND TRAFFICKING,
OF ANTIQUITIES.
ARE YOU SAYING THAT AUGIE
HAD SOMETHING TO DO
WITH THE TRAFFICKING
OF ANTIQUITIES?
WELL, THAT'S
I'M HERE TO FIND THAT OUT.
SHERIFF, I'M NOT GOING
TO GET IN YOUR WAY.
WE'RE ACCUSTOMED TO DEALING
WITH THESE TYPES OF CRIMES.
ON ARCHAEOLOGICAL DIGS?
AT IMPORTANT ONES.
THE LOCAL OFFICE TIPPED
ME OFF ABOUT THE BODY,
THAT'S WHY I'M HERE.
[SHERIFF]:
I SEE.
WELL, I'LL BE HAPPY
TO COOPERATE.
HOPEFULLY,
THAT'LL BE A TWO-WAY STREET.
THIS IS EMMA'S PROJECT.
SHE'S THE ARCHAEOLOGIST.
I KNOW WHO YOU ARE.
NICE TO MEET YOU,
PROFESSOR FIELDING.
YOU TOO.
SHE'S ALSO THE ONE
THAT FOUND AUGIE
THE DECEASED.
MUST HAVE BEEN A SHOCK.
YEAH, OBVIOUSLY, MOS
OF MY FINDS ARE MUMMIFIED,
BUT I STUDIED FORENSICS.
SEEN MY SHARE OF DEAD BODIES.
SO, FORENSICS, HUH?
ANCIENT AND MODERN.
YOU CONSIDERING
THIS A HOMICIDE?
MOST LIKELY.
ANY IDEA OF THE CAUSE OF DEATH?
LARGE BRUISE ON THE FOREHEAD,
GASH IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD.
HIS CLOTHES
WERE SOAKED THROUGH,
AND I SAW THE BACK OF HIS HEAD
WHEN THE CORONER'S TEAM
WAS TAKING HIS BODY
OUT OF THE TRENCH.
SOMEBODY GAVE HIM
AN INCREDIBLY HARD WHACK.
SO THE BRUISE
ON THE FOREHEAD,
YOU THINK IT HAPPENED
AT THE SAME TIME?
NO.
NO? WHY?
I DID THAT TO HIM.
[EMMA]:
I SLAPPED HIS ARM AWAY,
AND HE LOST HIS BALANCE.
HE FELL,
AND THAT'S WHEN
HE DINGED HIS FOREHEAD.
SO HE THREATENED YOU?
YEAH.
WHAT'D HE SAY?
UM, HE SAID THAT I
HAD NO BUSINESS HERE,
THAT I WAS TAKING THINGS
THAT DON'T BELONG TO ME.
OKAY, THEN
I MAY HAVE TO ASK YOU
A FEW MORE QUESTIONS, EMMA,
BUT YOU'RE NOT GOING
ANYWHERE, ARE YOU?
NO.
GOOD.
SHERIFF?
HEY.
I'M WORRIED
ABOUT THE KIDS.
I'LL POST A DEPUTY UP HERE
DURING THE DAY
WHILE YOU'RE DIGGING, ALL RIGHT?
THANK YOU.
AGENT CONNOR?
- YEAH?
I'M NOT A SUSPECT, AM I,
'CAUSE OF THE BUMP
ON AUGIE'S HEAD?
WELL, LET'S SEE.
LAST TO SEE THE DECEASED.
FIRST TO FIND THE BODY.
DO YOU THINK THA
QUALIFIES YOU AS A SUSPECT?
NOT TO AN
ASTUTE DETECTIVE.
NO?
WHY WOULD I BURY
HIS BODY ON MY SITE?
THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION.
I HADN'T THOUGHT ABOUT THAT.
YOU HAD ME GOING THERE.
YOU HAVE A GOOD POKER FACE.
I PRACTICE IN THE MIRROR.
[TONY]: SO THE MAP YOU FOUND,
IT'S, UH,
IT'S HELPING?
WE WOULDN'T BE HERE
WITHOUT IT.
MY DAD KNEW THERE WAS A COLONY,
BUT HE DIDN'T KNOW
WHERE ON THE COAS
THEY'D SETTLED.
THAT'S WHY
HE NEVER CHOSE A SITE,
EVEN AFTER ALL THOSE
YEARS OF RESEARCH.
YEAH.
I JUST GOT LUCKY
TO FIND A MAP
THAT SEEMS TO PINPOIN
THE LOCATION OF THE COLONY.
YEAH.
YOU KNOW, YOUR FATHER
WAS TREATED POORLY
AT THE END OF HIS LIFE.
WHEN HIS COLLEAGUES
DISMISSED HIS THEORY
ON THE LOST COLONY,
WELL, HIS REPUTATION
TOOK A TERRIBLE HIT.
I ALWAYS THOUGH
THAT HE DESERVED BETTER
THAN THAT,
BUT I DO HOPE
THAT THAT'S NOT THE MAIN
REASON WHY YOU'RE HERE,
TO PROVE HIM RIGHT.
I'M GOING TO PROVE I
FOR MYSELF, TOO
NOT TO MENTION THE PRESTIGE
IT'LL BRING THE COLLEGE,
AND A FIND LIKE THIS
IS IMPORTAN
TO THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY.
OF COURSE.
I KNOW THEY'RE GOING
TO SOLVE THIS SOON,
AND WE WILL FIND EVIDENCE
OF THE COLONY.
I'M SURE YOU'RE RIGHT.
I'M THINKING THA
I'LL STICK AROUND
JUST TO BE SURE
THAT CONTINUING THE DIG
IS THE RIGHT DECISION.
[SHERIFF]:
SO, WHY WOULD AUGIE BE BURIED
ON THIS SITE, DO YOU THINK?
WELL, YOU CERTAINLY WOULDN'
WANT TO BURY A BODY
ON AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL DIG SITE
UNLESS YOU WANTED IT DISCOVERED.
THERE'S A MESSAGE THERE,
AND I'M BEGINNING TO THINK
IT'S AIMED AT EMMA FIELDING.
[KNOCKING]
THANKS.
I NEED TO REPORT A ROBBERY.
WHERE?
- AT THE DIG SITE.
SOMEBODY STOLE MY MAP.
WAS IT VALUABLE?
THE ORIGINAL IS,
BUT THAT'S BACK
AT THE STATE ARCHIVES.
THIS IS JUST A COPY.
WHY WOULD SOMEONE WANT IT?
I DON'T KNOW.
TURNS OU
YOU WERE RIGHT, EMMA.
CORONER'S REPORT SHOWS
AUGIE CLEMENTS DIED
OF BLUNT-FORCE TRAUMA.
HEY.
YOU GUYS WITH PROFESSOR
FIELDING'S TEAM?
UH-HUH.
THAT'S COOL.
HEY, WAS SHE STILL
OUT ON THE DIG SITE
WHEN YOU GUYS LEFT?
UH, I THINK SO, YEAH.
ONCE SHE STARTS WORKING,
SHE KIND OF LOSES
TRACK OF TIME.
A BIT OBSESSIVE, ACTUALLY.
SHE IS NOT OBSESSIVE.
SHE JUST LOVES HER WORK MORE
THAN ANYTHING ELSE, THAT'S ALL.
YEAH, THAT'S THE
IMPRESSION I'M GETTING.
THANKS.
OKAY, TOTALLY REASSESSING
PROFESSOR FIELDING.
WHEN SHE'S NO
IN THE TRENCHES,
SHE'S HANGING OU
WITH THAT GUY?
YOU ACTUALLY THINK
THAT OLD GUY IS COOL?
COME ON.
YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.
[LAUGHING]
SORRY I'M LATE.
ACTUALLY THOUGHT I'D LOST OU
TO A BIT OF OLD POTTERY
OR SOMETHING.
YOU OKAY?
[MAN]:
EVERYONE?
LISTEN UP.
QUIET DOWN.
WE LOST ONE OF OUR OWN
LAST NIGHT.
YOU ALL KNEW HIM.
HE DIDN'T DESERVE
TO PASS LIKE THAT,
AND, WELL
HERE'S TO AUGIE.
TO AUGIE!
DO YOU MIND
IF WE GET OUT OF HERE?
I'VE KIND OF LOST MY APPETITE.
YEAH.
SO WHAT'S GOING ON?
WHAT'S BOTHERING YOU?
I'M THE ONE
WHO FOUND AUGIE.
WHAT?
THEY THINK
HE WAS MURDERED.
WOW, THAT MUST'VE BEEN
HORRIBLE FOR YOU.
YEAH.
WOW.
I WAS ON MY BOAT ALL DAY.
I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW
AUGIE DIED
UNTIL THEY TOASTED HIM
A MINUTE AGO.
HE WAS BURIED
AT MY DIG SITE,
AND SOMEBODY STOLE MY MAP.
MAP?
YEAH, I FOUND I
IN THE MAINE ARCHIVES.
IT PINPOINTS
THE EXACT LOCATION
OF THE SETTLEMENT.
AT LEAST
I HOPE IT DOES.
ONLY MY STUDENTS
AND A FEW OTHER PEOPLE
HAVE EVEN SEEN IT.
YOU THINK THE
TWO ARE RELATED?
I DON'T KNOW.
SOMEBODY'S VERY INTERESTED
IN WHAT I'M DOING.
MAYBE THEY THINK
THERE'S SOMETHING OUT THERE
WORTH KILLING FOR.
LIKE WHAT?
GOLD COINS.
YOU MEAN,
LIKE WE USED TO LOOK FOR
WHEN WE WERE KIDS?
YEAH, CHEST FULL
OF GOLD COINS,
GIVEN TO THE COLONISTS
BY THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND.
EVERYBODY KNOWS
THAT'S A MYTH.
MAYBE NOT EVERYBODY.
[GASPS]
OH, NO.
HEY.
WHERE'S SHERIFF STANNARD?
HE'S AT THE CORONER'S OFFICE.
I JUST HEARD THE CALL COME IN.
CAME DOWN TO SEE
IF YOU WERE ALL RIGHT.
I'M FINE, BUT
ANYTHING MISSING?
I DON'T THINK SO,
BUT WHEN YOU ADD IT ALL UP
YOU, OR A
LEAST YOUR SITE,
IS BEING TARGETED
BY SOMEBODY.
YOU SEEM TO BE
FINISHING MY THOUGHTS
GREAT MINDS.
YOU KNOW
IF YOU REALLY BELIEVE THAT,
I HAVE A PROPOSAL.
OKAY, SOUNDS INTERESTING.
IT'S ABOU
YOUR INVESTIGATION
AN OFFER OF HELP.
YOU THINK I NEED HELP?
WELL, I MEAN
IT'S BEEN ALMOST A WHOLE DAY
SINCE I FOUND AUGIE,
AND DOESN'T THE TRAIL GO COLD
AFTER 48 HOURS?
OH, I SEE, AFTER 48 HOURS,
I HAVE TO DROP THE CASE,
BUT YOU CAN PICK IT UP
AFTER TWO CENTURIES?
IT'S NOT A COMPETITION,
AGENT CONNOR.
A COLLABORATION
WILL HELP US BOTH.
YOU GET TO SAVE YOUR CASE,
AND I KEEP
MY COLLEGE'S GRANT COMMITTEE
FROM SHUTTING DOWN MY DIG.
I'M WILLING TO TAKE TESTIMONY
FROM RELIABLE WITNESSES,
PROFESSOR FIELDING,
BUT I ALSO HAVE PEOPLE
I HAVE TO ANSWER TO,
AND THE BUREAU DOESN'T REALLY
ALLOW US TO
COLLABORATE
WITH AMATEUR DETECTIVES.
I'M HARDLY AN AMATEUR.
I'M A DETECTIVE
JUST LIKE YOU.
I INVESTIGATE,
AND I MAKE DEDUCTIONS
THAT LEAD TO SOLUTIONS.
MURDER AND THE MOTIVATION
BEHIND I
ARE THE SAME TODAY
AS WHEN HUMANS
LIVED IN CAVES.
LOOK, IT'S A ONE-TIME OFFER.
I'LL THINK IT OVER.
IN THE MEANTIME,
DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING IN HERE.
I'M GOING TO HAVE
A TEAM COME IN HERE
AND DUST FOR FINGERPRINTS.
HEY, EVERYBODY.
LOOK, I KNOW WHAT HAPPENED
AT THE DIG SITE
WAS UPSETTING
FOR ALL OF US.
THE SHERIFF IS INVESTIGATING,
AND HE'S POSTING
A DEPUTY AT THE DIG SITE
TO KEEP AN EYE ON THINGS,
BUT IF ANYONE FEELS
UNCOMFORTABLE GOING BACK,
I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND.
WE'RE WITH YOU, PROFESSOR.
OKAY. LET'S GO.
WHO COULD HE BE TRYING
TO IMPRESS, I WONDER?
IT'S GOING TO TAKE
MORE THAN HAIR GEL.
YOU THOUGHT ABOUT WHAT I SAID?
WHAT DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT EMMA'S MAP?
MAP? WHAT MAP?
YOU KNOW EXACTLY
WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.
AND I THINK
SHE'S VERY ATTRACTED TO YOU,
MR. BRIGGS.
I CALL THAT OPPORTUNITY--
IF YOU'RE BOLD ENOUGH
TO TAKE ADVANTAGE.
EMMA
THOUGHT YOU MIGHT'VE CONSIDERED
TAKING THE DAY OFF.
WE HAVE ARTIFACTS TO FIND.
THE STUDENTS
WERE ALL UP FOR IT.
WELL, IT'S ONE THING
WORKING YOURSELF TO EXHAUSTION,
BUT IT'S ANOTHER
TO HAVE THE EXPECTATION
THAT YOUR STUDENTS WILL.
IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO STOP,
AT LEAST GIVE THEM
THE REST OF THE DAY OFF.
WELL, I MEAN
WE STILL HAVE
A FEW HOURS TO GO.
GIVEN WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY,
I THINK IT'S BEST.
ALL RIGHT, GANG.
LET'S CALL IT A DAY!
I'LL MEET YOU BACK AT THE MOTEL
IN A FEW HOURS.
WHAT'S THAT ABOUT?
TOLD YOU YOU'D REGRE
NOT TAKING ME UP ON MY OFFER.
THAT'S NOT EXACTLY
WHY I'M HERE.
NO?
- NO.
I WAS HOPING THAT YOU COULD
SHARE SOME OF YOUR TECHNIQUES.
REALLY?
DETECTIVE TO DETECTIVE?
DETECTIVE TO DETECTIVE.
ALL RIGHT.
FIRST LESSON
IS THAT YOU'RE NEVER GOING
TO FIND ANYTHING
UNLESS YOU'RE WILLING
TO GET DOWN AND DIRTY.
GET DOWN HERE.
ALL RIGHT.
WE TAKE UP THE DIR
AN INCH AT A TIME
ACROSS THE WHOLE PIT.
IF YOU FIND SOMETHING,
EVEN IF YOU WANT TO,
DON'T TAKE IT OU
UNTIL IT'S FULLY EXPOSED.
THE DEPTH OF THE ARTIFAC
IS WHAT DETERMINES ITS AGE.
OKAY, INCH
AT A TIME.
YEAH, CAREFULLY.
THEN WE TAKE THE DIR
AND PUT IT IN THIS BUCKET.
WHEN WE'RE DONE,
WE SIFT I
THROUGH THESE SCREENS
IN CASE WE MISSED
ANY SMALLER ARTIFACTS,
LIKE BONE FRAGMENTS
OR BUTTONS.
MM.
SO
HOW'D YOU END UP
IN THE ANTIQUITIES DIVISION?
I GOT SHOT.
I WAS CHASING A BAD GUY.
WOW.
MUST'VE BEEN HARD
ON YOUR FAMILY.
IT WAS HARD ON MY SON
BUT YOU KNOW,
WE'D GROWN APAR
DURING THE DIVORCE
I HAD WITH HIS MOM,
SO THE SILVER LINING
TO TAKING A BULLE
WAS THAT IT BROUGHT US
BACK TOGETHER.
YOU KNOW, HE'S AT COLLEGE NOW,
BUT I SEE HIM A LOT.
SO THIS ASSIGNMEN
IS SORT OF LIKE
BEING PUT OUT TO PASTURE?
[LAUGHS]
THAT'S NO
THE METAPHOR I'D USE, NO.
SORRY.
I'VE GOT TO ADMIT, THOUGH,
I WASN'T THRILLED AT FIRST,
BUT IT SURE BEATS A DESK JOB.
AND NOW?
NOW I'M DIGGING IT.
YOU DID NOT JUST SAY THAT!
UGH, IT'S GOING TO BE
A LONG AFTERNOON.
SO, WHAT EXACTLY
ARE WE LOOKING FOR HERE?
PROOF THA
THERE WERE SETTLERS HERE
BEFORE THE COLONISTS LANDED
AT JAMESTOWN.
SO, HOW DO YOU KNOW
WILL BRIGGS?
WE'RE OLD FRIENDS.
SPENT SUMMERS HERE
AS A TEENAGER,
UP UNTIL COLLEGE.
WHY?
JUST GETTING A FEEL
FOR THE LOCAL POPULATION.
STOP!
WHAT?
I THINK
YOU'VE FOUND SOMETHING.
EARTHENWARE.
MADE ON SITE.
LOOKS LIKE THE RIGHT ERA.
HOW CAN YOU TELL THAT?
I MEAN, DO YOU GO
X-RAY VISION?
[LAUGHS]
NO, I'VE STUDIED THESE
A LOT OF 'EM,
SO EVEN IF IT'S BROKEN
OR INCOMPLETE,
I CAN TELL FROM THE RIM
WHAT IT SHOULD BE.
WELL, I GUESS I'M A NATURAL.
WELL, YOU HAVE
A VERY GOOD TEACHER.
[LAUGHS]
A BURIED PITCHER?
YOU THINK IT'S PAR
OF THE LOST COLONY?
IT MIGHT BE.
WE STILL HAVE TO UNCOVER IT,
DOCUMENT IT AND DATE IT.
THAT'LL TAKE A FEW DAYS.
YOU AND YOUR FATHER
ONLY PATIENT WHEN
YOU'RE DIGGING.
YOU ARE SO MUCH
LIKE HIM.
IT MAKES ME WORRY.
WORRY?
SOMETIMES, I THINK THA
YOU DON'T TAKE THE TIME
TO CREATE A LIFE FOR YOURSELF
HERE IN THE PRESENT.
I HAVE A LIFE.
MY WORK, MY RESEARCH,
MY STUDENTS
I HAVE YOU.
YOU DESERVE
TO FIND SOMEONE SPECIAL.
OKAY, LOOK
IT'S NOT LIKE
I HAVEN'T TRIED.
WITH THE WAY
I WORK AND TRAVEL,
IT'S REALLY HARD TO BUILD
A LASTING CONNECTION.
I KNOW.
I REMEMBER HOW
YOUR FATHER WAS.
HOW DID YOU TWO
MAKE IT WORK?
OSCAR AND I
WERE EQUAL PARTNERS.
WE SHARED IT ALL.
YOU COULD HAVE SOMETHING
THAT SPECIAL, TOO
SOMEONE WHO KNOWS YOUR HEART.
THAT DOES SOUND NICE
BUT, IN THE MEANTIME,
I'M GOING TO GO
CHECK ON THE DIG SITE
BEFORE I HEAD
BACK TO THE MOTEL.
AND I'M GOING
TO HEAD INSIDE.
[LAUGHING]
GOOD NIGHT, EMMA.
GOOD NIGHT.
OKAY. YOU BE CAREFUL UP THERE.
- I WILL.
OKAY. GOOD NIGHT.
[THUNDER ROLLS]
HEY!
THIS IS PRIVATE PROPERTY.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
NAME'S GRAHAM TICHNOR.
PAULINE KNOWS ME.
YOU'RE TRESPASSING,
MR. TICHNOR.
SHE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH ME
BEING AROUND HERE BEFORE.
SHE DOES NOW.
NOTHING HERE IS YOURS
UNTIL YOU FIND IT
IF YOU FIND IT.
[PAULINE]:
GRAHAM TICHNOR.
HE'S A PICKER.
HE SCOURS THE TOWNS
AND VILLAGES
FOR ANYTHING THAT THE DEALERS
DIDN'T GET TO FIRST.
HE'S BEEN KNOWN TO FORGE
HIS OWN "ANTIQUES" OCCASIONALLY
FOR UNSUSPECTING TOURISTS.
SO WHY WOULD HE BE SNOOPING
AROUND THE DIG?
HE'LL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES
TO GET HIS HANDS ON ANYTHING
HE CAN SELL
TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER.
HE OFFERED ME $50
FOR MY GODDESS STATUE!
[TONY]:
GODDESS STATUE?
MY MOST PRECIOUS
GIFT FROM OSCAR.
I KEEP IT THERE
SO I CAN SEE IT EVERY MORNING.
LAKSHMI, GODDESS OF PROSPERITY.
ABSOLUTELY RIGHT, TONY.
SHE'S LOVELY.
THANK YOU.
[EMMA]:
TONY,
I THINK I MAY HAVE
FOUND SOMETHING
AT THE DIG SITE TODAY
A PIECE OF POTTERY.
IF IT'S WHAT I THINK IT IS,
IT MAY BRING US
SIGNIFICANTLY CLOSER
TO OUR GOAL.
WELL, THAT'S GREAT!
YEAH.
HEY, THANK YOU
FOR MEETING ME.
I GOT YOU
A COFFEE.
OH, THANK YOU!
SO, I'VE BEEN THINKING.
OH.
OKAY, GO ON.
OKAY, A BODY WAS BURIED
AT MY SITE,
THEN MY MAP WAS STOLEN,
AND MY HOTEL ROOM WAS TRASHED.
SO CONNECT THE DOTS,
THEY ALL CONNECT TO YOU.
OR MAYBE IT'S NOT ME.
WHAT IF IT'S MY DIG SITE?
I KEEP THINKING ABOUT SOMETHING
WILL BRIGGS SAID
ABOUT BURIED TREASURE.
BURIED TREASURE?
THE QUEEN'S GOLD COINS.
SUPPOSEDLY, SHE SENT THEM
WITH THE COLONISTS
TO HELP FUND
THE SETTLEMENT.
MY FATHER
DEBUNKED THAT STORY,
BUT WILL SAID A LOT OF PEOPLE
STILL BELIEVE IT.
SO THEY THINK THA
YOU'RE AFTER THE GOLD COINS,
NOT THE SETTLEMENT.
AUGIE SAID I WAS TAKING THINGS
THAT DON'T BELONG TO ME.
SO, THE COMPETITION
KNOCKED OFF AUGIE,
AND THEY STOLE YOUR MAP
AND SEARCHED YOUR ROOM
TO SEE
IF I'D FOUND ANYTHING.
IT'S PLAUSIBLE.
I MEAN, IT DOESN'T GIVE ME
A SUSPECT, BUT
GRAHAM TICHNOR.
HE'S A PICKER.
HE BUYS, STEALS AND FORGES
ANTIQUES AND ARTIFACTS.
I FOUND HIM POKING AROUND
MY SITE LAST NIGHT.
YOU "FOUND" HIM?
WELL, HE WAS TRESPASSING.
I WASN'T.
I THINK
WE NEED TO GO TALK TO HIM.
WE?
OR ME, IF YOU DON'T WAN
TO COME ALONG.
LISTEN, I APPRECIATE
THAT YOU WANT TO BE
INVOLVED IN THIS, I DO
A MAN MAY HAVE BEEN KILLED
BECAUSE OF WHAT I'M DOING.
OBVIOUSLY, I DON'T WAN
MY PROJECT SHUT DOWN,
BUT I ALSO DON'T WAN
ANYBODY ELSE
TO GET BROUGHT INTO THIS.
OKAY. ALL RIGHT.
I GET IT,
BUT I'VE GOT IT COVERED.
OH, NO
OH, NO!
SOMEBODY'S BEEN DIGGING.
OKAY
UH
I THINK THE BEST THING
WE CAN DO HERE
PHOTOGRAPH AND LOG
ANY UNAUTHORIZED DIGGING,
BUT FOR NOW,
JUST LEAVE EVERYTHING
AS IT IS.
EMMA, YOU KNOW,
BETWEEN THE MURDER,
AND YOUR MAP
WE'VE GOT TO THINK
OF THE STUDENTS.
THE STUDENTS COME FIRST.
I KNOW
AND I AGREE WITH YOU,
BUT THE SHERIFF'S DEPUTY IS HERE
ALL DAY.
THERE'S NO RISK
TO THE STUDENTS.
WELL
WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
TO TELL HIM ABOUT THIS.
I WILL.
EVERYBODY, COME HERE.
I WANT TO SHOW YOU
SOMETHING REMARKABLE.
WOW.
PROFESSOR?
HEY, AGENT CONNOR.
UM, I THINK
TICHNOR CAME BACK LAST NIGH
AND WAS DIGGING
AROUND MY SITE
LOOKING FOR SOMETHING.
I THOUGHT YOU WERE
GOING TO QUESTION HIM.
SHERIFF STANNARD'S
BRINGING HIM IN
THIS AFTERNOON.
DON'T WORRY.
I AM WORRIED.
MY DEPARTMENT HEAD
IS CLOSE TO SHUTTING ME DOWN
BECAUSE OF WHAT'S GOING ON.
DO YOU HAVE ANY NEW LEADS?
UH, NO MATCH FOR THE PRINTS
FOUND IN YOUR ROOM.
WHOEVER TRASHED I
WASN'T IN THE SYSTEM,
AND NO PRINTS AT THE SHED.
PROBABLY WORE GLOVES.
OKAY, WELL,
AUGIE'S CLOTHES WERE SOAKED.
WAS IT SEA WATER?
IT WAS.
IS THAT ALL?
WAS THERE ANYTHING
IN THE POCKETS?
JUST, YOU KNOW,
BITS AND PIECES.
PERFECT.
BITS AND PIECES
ARE MY SPECIALITY.
ALL RIGHT.
"ASSORTED CONTENTS,
UNKNOWN."
OH, MY FAVORITE KIND.
OKAY, WE'VE GOT COMB
DIME
DEFINITELY 21ST CENTURY
CREDIT CARD,
EXPIRED
[GASPS]
CAN WE OPEN
THIS EVIDENCE BAG?
LATE L600S
WINE FLASK.
YOU CAN TELL THA
BY LOOKING AT THAT?
YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T?
FUNNY.
THE QUESTION IS
WHAT WOULD THEY BE
DOING IN AUGIE'S POCKET?
YES, AND THEY WOULDN'T,
UNLESS HE WAS HANGING OU
WITH SOMEONE
WHO WAS DIGGING TEST HOLES
ON PAULINE'S LAND.
LIKE YOUR FRIEND, MR. TICHNOR.
EXACTLY.
CONNOR.
YEAH, OKAY.
I'LL BE RIGHT THERE.
THEY FOUND AUGIE'S JACKET.
YOU TWO A TEAM NOW?
NO, NOTHING LIKE THAT.
WE'RE NOT A TEAM.
OH, THAT'S A JACKE
AUGIE HAD ON
THE NIGHT I SAW HIM,
BUT NOT WHEN I FOUND HIM
THE NEXT DAY.
I, UH, I KNOW YOU'RE GOING
TO TELL ME ANYWAY,
SO
WHAT DO YOU THINK HAPPENED?
MAYBE THE JACKET CAME OFF
WHEN THE KILLER DRAGGED
THE BODY OFF THE BOAT,
THROUGH THE SURF,
AND UP TO THE DIG SITE?
AND THEN WHAT WOULD YOU
DEDUCT FROM THAT?
KILLER HAD ACCESS TO A BOAT.
KILLER HAD ACCESS
TO A BOAT.
SO IT COULD BE ANYBODY
IN MAINE.
OKAY, LET ME THINK
FOR A MINUTE.
IF I WAS GOING TO DRAG
A 190-POUND BODY
ALONG THE SAND
I'D HAVE
TO LEAVE SOMETHING.
CONNOR!
COME HERE. I WAN
TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING.
YEAH?
- LOOK THERE.
SEE IT?
IT'S A BEAD, THERE.
IT'S A BEAD.
MAYBE A TOURIST DROPPED IT.
NO, TOURISTS DON'T COME
TO THIS BEACH.
YOU CAN'T SWIM.
THE CURRENT'S TOO STRONG.
LOOK HOW IT'S WORN DOWN
ON THE OUTSIDE?
THIS IS FROM A STRING
OF GREEK WORRY BEADS.
YOU MOVE THEM AROUND
IN YOUR HAND,
AND THEY MAKE A RHYTHM.
THE BEADS SWING
AGAINST EACH OTHER
AND MAKE A CLICKING SOUND.
NAME'S GRAHAM TICHNOR.
PAULINE KNOWS ME.
[LIGHT CLICKING SOUND]
GRAHAM TICHNOR
HAD A STRING OF THESE BEADS.
I SAW THEM,
SO THIS BEAD COULD BE
WHAT LINKS TICHNOR
TO AUGIE'S MURDER.
UH
CIRCUMSTANTIALLY, MAYBE.
I MEAN, IF THAT WAS
GRAHAM TICHNOR'S BEAD,
HOW DO YOU KNOW
HE JUST DIDN'T DROP I
WALKING DOWN THE BEACH?
WELL, MAYBE SO, BUT
YOU KNOW,
YOU'RE RIGHT.
OUR CAREERS ARE MORE SIMILAR
THAN I THOUGHT,
BUT THERE'S ONE IMPORTAN
DIFFERENCE.
YOUR EVIDENCE HAS TO STAND UP
TO PEER REVIEW.
MINE HAS TO STAND UP
IN A COURT OF LAW,
AGAINST A DEFENSE ATTORNEY
SO A BEAD IS NO
GOING TO CUT IT.
LISTEN,
DON'T BE TEMPTED TO GO
CHASING AFTER THESE SUSPECTS.
THESE PEOPLE
ARE NOT PLAYING AROUND.
HEY!
WHAT'S GOING ON?
HAVE A LOOK.
[GASPS]
NO!
OH, NO,
THEY TOOK THE PITCHER.
BUT WE PHOTOGRAPHED IT!
AND DOCUMENTED IT.
WHICH MEANS
VERY LITTLE
WITHOUT THE
ACTUAL ARTIFACT.
THE EXTRACTION'S
BEEN COMPROMISED.
THERE'S NO WAY FOR US
TO KNOW THE SOIL LEVEL
THAT IT WAS FOUND AT,
OR BE ABLE TO CROSS-REFERENCE I
WITH OUR OTHER FINDS.
SO WE HAVE NO WAY TO DATE IT.
YEAH, AND EVEN IF
IT TURNED UP
WITH A
"PRIVATE COLLECTOR" SOMEWHERE
IT HAS
NO ARCHAEOLOGICAL VALUE AT ALL,
AS IF WE'D NEVER FOUND IT.
SO UNFORTUNATELY,
THIS BRINGS US BACK
TO SQUARE ONE
WHICH ONLY MEANS
WE HAVE TO WORK HARDER
THAN WE DID BEFORE, RIGHT?
ALL RIGHT,
LET'S DO IT.
GUYS, YOU KNOW
EVERYBODY'S ALREADY BEEN
WORKING A LOT OF OVERTIME,
SO I THINK PERHAPS
WE SHOULD TAKE THIS CHANCE
TO BE ABLE TO
RECONSIDER OUR OPTIONS.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S PULL
THE PLUG FOR TODAY.
GOOD WORK, EVERYBODY.
OKAY, SURE.
IT'S UNFORTUNATE.
EMMA, I KNOW
THAT YOU'RE UPSET.
TONY, I KNOW THIS
IS YOUR DEPARTMENT,
BUT THIS IS MY MAP,
MY GRANT, AND MY DIG,
AND I'LL TELL MY STUDENTS
WHEN THEY'RE DONE.
I HAD TO STEP IN, ALL RIGHT?
AND I WILL AGAIN IF YOU PUSH
YOUR STUDENTS, OR YOURSELF,
BEYOND WHAT THE COLLEGE DEEMS
TO BE ACCEPTABLE LIMITS.
THIS IS IMPORTANT.
YOU KNOW WE'RE NEVER GOING
TO GET THE FUNDING
OR THE PERMISSION
TO DO THIS DIG AGAIN.
THIS IS THE LAST CHANCE
TO PROVE THE SETTLEMENT EXISTED,
TO PROVE MY FATHER WAS RIGHT.
EMMA, I HATE TO SAY THIS,
BUT YOU ARE FAR TOO INFLUENCED
BY YOUR DESIRE TO RESCUE
YOUR FATHER'S REPUTATION.
DON'T YOU THINK MY REPUTATION'S
ON THE LINE, TOO?
OF COURSE IT IS,
AS IS MINE.
I LOBBIED THE BOARD HARD
TO HAVE THEM APPROVE THIS DIG.
YOU HAVE TO PULL
YOURSELF TOGETHER.
I THOUGH
YOU WERE HERE TO SUPPORT ME.
OF COURSE I AM.
BY MAKING ME DOUBT MYSELF?
BY SAVING YOUR CAREER.
IT FEELS LIKE
YOU'RE TRYING TO END IT.
EMMA, I'M AT A LOSS
THAT YOU COULD SAY THAT TO ME
AFTER ALL I'VE DONE
TO CHAMPION YOU.
WHEN THE BOARD SHUTS YOU DOWN,
DON'T EXPECT ME TO DEFEND YOU.
[CELL PHONE BEEPS]
BRIGG'S DIVE SHOP?
NOT BAD, HUH?
IMPRESSIVE
COULDN'T WAIT TO SHOW YOU.
YOU KNOW,
YOU'RE THE FIRST PERSON
I EVER WENT ON A DIVE WITH.
AW.
IT'S A BIG STEP.
AS IN,
"ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?"
AS IN, I APPLAUD YOUR COURAGE.
THANK YOU.
COME IN,
I WANT TO SHOW YOU AROUND.
I DID MY RESEARCH.
TOURISM'S UP.
I JUST NEED THE RIGHT WEBSITE,
AND I'M GOING
TO BE BOOKED SOLID
WHICH IS WHERE YOU COME IN,
OR AT LEAST, I HOPE SO
THAT STORY
ABOUT THE GOLD COINS
AND THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND
I MEAN,
NOTHING LIKE A LITTLE MYTH
TO GET THE TOURISTS EXCITED.
I WAS THINKING THAT MAYBE
YOU COULD WRITE SOMETHING
FOR THE WEBSITE,
SOMETHING ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY
OF THERE MAYBE BEING
A CHEST FULL OF COINS?
YOU KNOW,
YOU BEING AN ARCHAEOLOGIST,
IT WOULD REALLY
MEAN A LOT.
LOOK, I KNOW
WE HAVEN'T SEEN EACH OTHER
IN A LONG TIME,
BUT
SEEING YOU THE OTHER DAY,
REALLY BROUGHT IT BACK,
YOU KNOW
HOW I USED TO FEEL ABOUT YOU.
LOOK, WILL,
I'D LIKE TO HELP YOU OUT.
I REALLY WOULD, BUT
TO PUT MY REPUTATION
BEHIND A LIE
I JUST CAN'T DO IT.
I'M SORRY.
EMMA, I'M GLAD I CAUGHT YOU.
YEAH, IT'S REALLY BLOWING HERE.
I'M WORRIED ABOU
YOUR EQUIPMENT, YOUR TARPS,
ANYTHING NOT TIED DOWN.
I'M ON MY WAY.
DON'T TRY TO DO
ANYTHING ON YOUR OWN.
BE RIGHT THERE.
[PAULINE]:
OKAY. BYE.
OH, MY GOD!
I NEED TO REPORT A FIRE!
PAULINE FIELDING'S HOUSE,
TWIN COVES POINT!
PLEASE HURRY!
PAULINE!
[GASPS IN PAIN]
PAULINE!
NO!
NO, NO, NO!
PAULINE!
[COUGHS]
OH, NO.
OKAY. OKAY.
OKAY
ARE YOU OKAY?
PAULINE
CAN YOU HEAR ME,
SWEETIE?
OKAY.
THEY'RE COMING.
THEY'RE COMING.
PAULINE?
IT'S EMMA.
THEY'RE TAKING YOU
TO THE HOSPITAL.
I'M GOING TO BE
RIGHT BEHIND YOU.
LET ME DRIVE YOU
TO THE HOSPITAL.
THANK YOU.
[DOCTOR]: SMOKE INHALATION
AND MINOR BURNS.
WE'LL KEEP HER HERE FOR NOW
JUST TO BE SURE THA
THERE AREN'T ANY COMPLICATIONS.
NOW, WITH SOME CARE, I'M SURE
SHE SHOULD BE JUST FINE.
OH, THANK GOODNESS.
WHAT ABOUT TONY MARKHAM?
SUPERFICIAL BURNS,
AND HE'S ABOUT TO BE RELEASED.
WHEN CAN I SEE PAULINE?
SHE NEEDS TO REST RIGHT NOW.
I'LL LET YOU KNOW
WHEN YOU CAN SEE HER.
OKAY.
HERE WE GO.
OH, THANK YOU.
SO YOU AND PAULINE
ARE REALLY CLOSE, HUH?
YEAH.
YEAH, MY, UM
MY PARENTS GOT DIVORCED
WHEN I WAS 10.
MY MOM GOT REMARRIED,
AND MY DAD AND I WERE JUS
SORT OF LOST FOR A WHILE.
THEN PAULINE CAME
INTO OUR LIVES.
I JUST CAN'T IMAGINE MY LIFE
WITHOUT HER.
TONY
HEY.
- HEY.
I AM SO SORRY.
I DIDN'T MEAN
TO ACCUSE YOU OF
NO, NO.
I UNDERSTAND.
I DO, I UNDERSTAND.
I KNOW IT'S BEEN
DIFFICULT FOR YOU.
THANK YOU
THANK YOU
FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING,
BUT MOSTLY,
THANK YOU FOR SAVING PAULINE.
I WILL NEVER FORGE
WHAT YOU DID.
I SPOKE WITH THE SHERIFF,
AND HE SAID THAT THE FIRE CHIEF
WAS CONVINCED
THAT THIS WAS ARSON.
EMMA, I MEAN,
A MURDER, VANDALISM,
AND NOW THIS
I MEAN, FOR THE COLLEGE
AND FOR THE KIDS AND FOR YOU,
I CAN'T ALLOW THIS
DIG TO CONTINUE.
I KNOW HOW HARD IT IS,
AND I JUST
WELL, I HOPE
THAT YOU UNDERSTAND.
YEAH.
OKAY.
PAULINE?
PAULINE,
IT'S EMMA.
IT'S OKAY, SWEETIE.
YOU REST.
PROFESSOR FIELDING.
[JOE] WE WERE
TALKING LAST NIGHT.
EVERYONE'S REALLY UPSE
ABOUT BEING SHUT DOWN.
WE'RE CONVINCED
THAT WE WERE THIS CLOSE
TO PROVING
THE COLONY WAS HERE.
IF WE COULD JUST
PROFESSOR MARKHAM
IS WORRIED ABOUT YOUR SAFETY.
SO AM I.
THAT HAS TO BE OUR PRIORITY.
HOW'S PAULINE?
BETTER.
RESTING.
HOW ARE YOU?
OH, I'M ALL RIGHT.
BURN'S A LITTLE LESS
THAN PLEASANT.
DID THE SHERIFF
OR AGENT CONNOR
HAVE ANY NEWS?
UNFORTUNATELY, NOTHING SO FAR.
I'M SORRY, EMMA.
YEAH.
[KNOCKS]
[TEARFUL] I SENT
SENDING YOU MESSAGES.
YEAH, EVERY 15 MINUTES.
YEAH, I KNOW.
PAULINE ALMOST DIED
IN THIS FIRE,
AND IT MUST HAVE BEEN
TICHNOR WHO SET IT.
HE'S THE ONLY ONE
IT WASN'T TICHNOR.
HE HAS AN ALIBI.
I CHECKED IT OUT.
IT'S SOLID.
BUT PAULINE'S STATUE!
PAULINE'S STATUE,
IT'S ALWAYS THERE,
AND IT'S GONE,
AND PAULINE SAID
THAT TICHNOR WANTED IT.
ARE YOU POSITIVE
ABOUT HIS ALIBI?
HE WAS DOWNTOWN.
SIX DIFFERENT PEOPLE CONFIRM
THAT THEY SAW HIM.
LISTEN, I WANT TO TALK
ABOUT WILL BRIGGS.
WHY DO YOU KEEP
ASKING ME ABOUT HIM?
WELL, DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT HIS LAST JOB?
YES, SALVAGE DIVING.
FOR GOLD COINS
OFF THE COAST OF FLORIDA.
HE KNOWS THAT GOLD COIN STORY IS
NONSENSE.
WE TALKED ABOUT IT.
DID YOU KNOW THAT HE DID TIME?
WHAT?
- YEAH.
NO.
FOR DIVING A RIG THAT WASN'T HIS
WITHOUT A PERMIT,
WHICH WAS
TANTAMOUNT TO THEFT.
THERE HAVE TO BE TWO SIDES
TO THAT STORY.
WHEN YOU GROW UP WITH SOMEONE,
EVEN IF
I JUST SPENT SUMMERS HERE,
YOU KNOW THEIR CHARACTER.
WELL, PEOPLE CHANGE.
I MEAN, SOMETIMES,
THEY DO DESPERATE THINGS
WHEN THE GOING GETS ROUGH.
NO.
I DON'T BELIEVE IT.
LOOK, I UNDERSTAND HE'S
HE'S YOUR FRIEND.
YOU WANT TO BELIEVE
THAT HE'S A GOOD GUY.
ARE YOU INVESTIGATING HIM?
I SUGGEST THAT YOU KEEP
YOUR DISTANCE FROM HIM.
LISTEN, UH
I'LL MAKE AN INQUIRY
ABOUT PAULINE'S STATUE.
I'LL FILE IT WITH THE BUREAU.
EMMA
- HI.
HEY.
I HEARD ABOUT THE FIRE.
I TRIED CALLING YOU.
HOW'S PAULINE?
IS SHE OKAY?
SHE'S BETTER,
BUT SOMEBODY'S BEEN DOING
EVERYTHING THEY CAN
TO GET MY PROJECT SHUT DOWN.
THEY DON'T SEEM TO CARE
THAT PAULINE WAS HUR
IN THE PROCESS.
THAT'S TERRIBLE.
LOOK, ABOUT THE OTHER DAY
I'M SORRY THAT I ASKED YOU
TO MAKE UP A STORY
ABOUT THE COINS.
I SHOULDN'T HAVE DONE THAT.
FORGET IT.
LISTEN, I NEED YOU TO TELL ME
ABOUT GRAHAM TICHNOR.
WILL, HELP ME.
TELL ME WHAT YOU KNOW.
I MEAN, TICHNOR'S TROUBLE.
ALWAYS LOOKING FOR AN ANGLE,
A WAY TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK.
WHAT?
HE'S BEEN ASKING ABOUT YOU.
MENU?
UH, NO, THANKS.
JUST A COFFEE TO GO, PLEASE.
THANKS.
SORRY TO HEAR
ABOUT YOUR STEP-MOM.
[EMMA]:
THANK YOU.
[NIKKI]:
SHE GOING TO BE OKAY?
[EMMA]:
SHE IS.
SO WITH ALL THE PROBLEMS
UP AT THE DIG SITE,
DOES THAT MEAN YOU'RE GOING
TO HAVE TO LEAVE SOON?
NOT FOR A WHILE.
OH.
WELL, THAT'LL MAKE
WILL HAPPY, HUH?
YOU TWO SEEM PRETTY TIGHT.
HARD NOT TO BE.
WE'VE KNOWN EACH OTHER FOREVER.
HEY, WHAT DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT GRAHAM TICHNOR?
NOT MUCH.
LIKE MOST PEOPLE AROUND HERE,
HE TAKES CARE
TO MIND HIS OWN BUSINESS.
OKAY.
THANK YOU.
FIRST PERSON TO RESPOND
GETS TO COME
ON AN ADVENTURE WITH ME.
MRS. FIELDING?
AGENT CONNOR, RIGHT?
YEAH. I HOPE
YOU'RE FEELING BETTER.
MM.
I CAME TO ASK YOU
A FEW QUESTIONS
ABOUT THE GODDESS STATUE.
MY STATUE?
YEAH, EMMA
I MEAN,
PROFESSOR FIELDING MENTIONED
THAT IT WAS MISSING
AFTER THE FIRE.
OH, NO.
MY HUSBAND, OSCAR, FOUND I
ON A DIG IN BANGLADESH
ABOUT 20 YEARS AGO.
CAN YOU PROVIDE
ANY MORE DETAILS?
I'LL SEARCH FOR OSCAR'S FILE
WHEN I GET HOME.
IT'LL HAVE EVERYTHING YOU NEED.
YOU CAN ALWAYS COUN
ON AN ARCHAEOLOGIS
TO BE DETAIL-ORIENTED.
YES
I KNOW.
UH
PROFESSOR FIELDING,
HAS SHE ALWAYS BEEN SO
UH
CHALLENGING?
IF SHE WEREN'T
WOULD YOU FIND HER
AS INTERESTING?
THANK YOU.
WHY ARE WE SPYING
ON PROFESSOR FIELDING?
BECAUSE EMMA FIELDING
IS IN TROUBLE.
THE BODY
AT THE DIG SITE,
THE STOLEN MAP.
THE FIRE
AT PAULINE'S
LOOK. SHE MUST BE
ON TO SOMETHING.
WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THAT?
BECAUSE
THAT'S WHAT I WOULD DO.
WAIT, SO WHAT DO WE DO?
WE FOLLOW.
I DON'T KNOW, CAREY
COME ON
AND GET YOUR DRONE.
[CAR APPROACHING]
[DOORBELL RINGS]
[DOORBELL RINGS]
[GRAHAM]:
SHOPPING FOR COLLECTIBLES?
YES, MR. TICHNOR,
I AM LOOKING FOR COLLECTIBLES,
BOTH EXTREMELY RARE
AND MISSING.
AND YOU THINK
YOU'LL FIND THEM HERE?
YOU'RE PERFECTLY WELCOME
TO LOOK AROUND.
THERE'S NO NEED TO BE
NERVOUS, MS. FIELDING.
COULD YOU TAKE
ANY LONGER?
YOU WANT IT DONE FAST,
OR DONE RIGHT?
JUST GET THE THING
IN THE AIR, WILL YOU?
SO, DONE RIGHT, THEN.
[CAREY]: THERE'S HER CAR,
BUT WHERE'S THE PROFESSOR?
I DON'T KNOW.
I'D OFFER YOU REFRESHMENTS,
BUT I DON'T THINK
IT'S THAT KIND OF VISIT.
TOO BAD.
TEA MIGHT HAVE BEEN NICE
WHILE WE DISCUSS
WHAT YOU TOOK
FROM MY STEPMOTHER
AND MY DIG.
IF YOU'RE ACCUSING ME
OF LARCENY,
YOU'RE BARKING UP
THE WRONG TREE.
I DON'T BARK,
MR. TICHNOR
I BITE,
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU NEARLY
KILLED SOMEONE I CARE ABOUT.
SO NOW I'M AN ARSONIS
AND MURDERER
AS WELL AS A THIEF.
I WAS NOWHERE NEAR
HER PLACE LAST NIGHT.
AGENT CONNOR KNOWS
MY ALIBI IS ROCK SOLID
AND NOW, PROFESSOR
I'M AFRAID IT'S
CLOSING TIME.
[CAREY]:
IT LOOKS LIKE SHE'S LEAVING.
HMM, GUESS SHE DIDN'
NEED US AFTER ALL.
STAY ON HIM.
MAKE SURE HE DOESN'
GO AFTER HER.
[ENGINE STARTS]
[CONNOR]: YOU'VE REACHED
AGENT JAMES CONNOR.
LEAVE A MESSAGE.
CONNOR, I'M GOING
TO MEET PAULINE AT THE HOSPITAL.
CAN YOU MEET ME?
IT'S URGENT.
EMMA!
HEY!
I JUST GOT SOME GOOD NEWS
FROM THE DOCTOR
ABOUT YOUR LUNGS.
SAID YOU'RE DOING
MUCH BETTER.
WHAT HAPPENED?
I DON'T KNOW.
I COULDN'T FIND MY WAY OUT.
EVERYTHING WAS SUCH A BLUR.
I'M SO HAPPY
YOU'RE OKAY.
THE POLICE THINK
THAT SOMEONE MAY HAVE
SET THE FIRE INTENTIONALLY.
REALLY?
YEAH, I'M
I'M AFRAID
THIS IS ALL BECAUSE OF ME
MY DIG, MY INVESTIGATING.
I JUST CAN'T DO THIS
IF IT'S GOING TO--
NO, DON'T YOU BACK DOWN NOW.
YOU DO
WHAT YOU DO BEST
UNCOVER THE TRUTH.
NO.
LOOK, THE DIG IS IMPORTANT,
BUT IT'S NOT AS IMPORTAN
AS YOU.
I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF I'M RIGHT.
WHEN YOUR FATHER PUBLISHED
HIS FIRST PAPER
ABOUT THE LOST COLONY,
IT WAS SCOFFED A
BY THE ENTIRE
ARCHAEOLOGICAL COMMUNITY,
BUT YOUR FATHER KNEW
IN HIS HEAR
THAT HE WAS ON TO SOMETHING.
EVEN THOUGH IT SEEMED CRAZY?
I KNEW ANYONE
WITH THAT MUCH CONVICTION
AND DETERMINATION,
THEY COULDN'T BE WRONG.
THAT'S WHY I BELIEVE
IN YOU TOO, EMMA.
HEY, PROFESSOR!
OH, HEY, GOOD,
YOU GOT MY MESSAGE.
LISTEN, I WANTED
TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT SOMETHING.
THERE'S BEEN
ANOTHER SUSPICIOUS DEATH.
WHAT?
GRAHAM TICHNOR.
I JUST SAW HIM!
YOU WHEN? WHERE?
AT HIS HOUSE,
ABOUT TWO HOURS AGO.
WELL, THAT'S WHEN
THE MEDICAL EXAMINER ESTIMATES
THAT HE WAS KILLED.
YOU MAY HAVE BEEN
THE LAST PERSON
TO SEE HIM ALIVE.
EXPLAIN IT TO ME, EMMA.
WHAT WERE YOU DOING HERE
IN THE FIRST PLACE?
I WAS CONVINCED
HE SET THE FIRE AT PAULINE'S,
AND I THOUGHT, IF I COULD FIND
HER STATUE
[SHERIFF]:
DID YOU?
NO
BUT I DID FIND BEADS
THAT MATCH THE ONE
I FOUND ON THE BEACH.
THEY'RE RIGHT OU
ON THE TABLE.
CONNOR TOLD ME
ABOUT YOUR BEAD THEORY.
JUST NOT SURE
THAT IT ACTUALLY ADDS UP
TO PROOF OF ANYTHING.
IN ANY CASE, YOU'RE GOING
TO HAVE TO MAKE A STATEMENT.
GRAHAM TICHNOR
WAS ALIVE AND KICKING
WHEN I SAW HIM LAST.
THAT'S MY STATEMENT.
NOT QUITE GOOD ENOUGH.
AGENT CONNOR,
YOU MIND?
OKAY, YEP.
LET'S GET IT OVER WITH.
WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON?
JUSTICE DOESN'T TAKE SIDES.
THE FACT THAT I WAS
AT A CRIME SCENE
IN BOTH INSTANCES
IS MORE THAN A COINCIDENCE.
I UNDERSTAND THAT.
LOOK, I'M SORRY.
I DON'T MEAN TO BE
CONDESCENDING TO ME?
I ALREADY SAID I'M SORRY.
I'M JUST SAYING
THAT I'M THE COMMON LINK,
WHICH MEANS I COULD BE NEXT.
DON'T THINK FOR ONE SECOND
I'D LET THAT HAPPEN
UNLESS, OF COURSE,
YOU DO SOMETHING CRAZY.
SUCH AS?
WELL, HOW 'BOUT GOING
TO MEET A SUSPEC
WITHOUT ME BEING THERE.
OH, NOW TICHNOR'S
A SUSPECT?
YOU SAT THERE NODDING
LIKE A BOBBLE-HEAD
WHEN STANNARD
WAS SAYING
"OH, HE HAS NOTHING TO DO
WITH ANY OF THIS!"
I DIDN'T NOD
LIKE A BOBBLE-HEAD.
OKAY, LOOK, LOOK
WILL SAID THAT TICHNOR KEP
TRYING TO INVOLVE HIM
IN SOME SCHEME.
WELL, IF TICHNOR'S
THE MASTERMIND,
THEN WHO KILLED HIM?
I HAVE NO IDEA.
LISTEN, YOU'VE GO
TO STAND DOWN, EMMA
PROFESSOR.
EMMA PROFESSOR.
HAS A NICE RING.
YOU HAVE A TALEN
FOR DETECTION
AND A PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY,
BUT
EIDETIC.
WHAT?
I HAVE AN EIDETIC MEMORY,
AN ENHANCED ABILITY TO VIVIDLY
RECALL IMAGES FROM MEMORY.
OKAY.
THAT YOU AND TONY WANT ME
TO PACK UP AND GO HOME, KNOW
BUT I CAN'T LEAVE
NOT WHEN PAULINE'S
IN THIS KIND OF SHAPE.
OKAY, I UNDERSTAND THAT,
BUT YOU NEED
TO JUST TAKE YOURSELF
OUT OF THE LINE OF FIRE
LITERALLY.
HEY, GET YOU SOMETHING?
JUST A BLACK COFFEE.
ANY NEWS ON
YOUR INVESTIGATION, AGENT?
I MEAN, THA
YOU CAN TALK ABOUT?
HEY
HAVE YOU HAD ANY INQUIRIES
FROM COLLECTORS
OF RECOVERED ARTIFACTS?
NOT RECENTLY. WHY?
[CONNOR]: WE THINK
THAT THIS MIGHT BE THE WORK
OF AN INTERNATIONAL
ART THEFT RING.
WE'VE BEEN TRACKING THEM
IN THE NORTHEAST.
THERE'VE BEEN ROBBERIES
AT MUSEUMS, DIGS.
REALLY?
SO YOU DON'T THINK
IT'S SOMEBODY LOCAL
FROM HERE, NO?
WELL, THAT'S THEIR METHOD.
THEY HIRE LOCAL PEOPLE
TO DO THE DIRTY WORK.
THAT WOULD EXPLAIN
THE AUGIE-TICHNOR CONNECTION.
HUH, THAT'S INTERESTING.
[LOUD THUD]
HELLO?
HELLO?
[SCREAMS]
TONY!
EMMA!
YOU SCARED ME.
WELL, I GUESS WE'RE BOTH
A LITTLE BIT JUMPY.
[EXHALES]
THANK YOU FOR LOOKING
BEFORE SWINGING, THOUGH.
I APPRECIATE THAT.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
CLEANING UP.
YOU?
OH, I JUST HAD
TO PICK UP SOME FILES.
HOW'S PAULINE?
IMPROVING.
THEY WANT TO MONITOR HER LUNG
FOR A COUPLE MORE DAYS.
THAT'S UNDERSTANDABLE, I GUESS.
YEAH.
IT'S INFURIATING
THAT THEY HAVEN'T FIGURED OU
WHO'S RESPONSIBLE.
AT LEAST THE FIRE WAS CONTAINED
TO THE SECOND FLOOR, THOUGH.
I BUMPED INTO AGENT CONNOR.
HE HAD SOME INTERESTING
THINGS TO SAY
THAT MAY SHED SOME LIGH
ON THE SITUATION.
REALLY?
YEAH.
NEWS TO ME.
LOOK
I'M SORRY ABOUT HOW ALL OF THIS
HAS PLAYED OUT.
YEAH.
WELL, GOOD NIGHT.
HEY, PROFESSOR?
HEY!
WE'RE HEADING BACK
TO THE DIG.
I WANT TO MAP THE SITE
ONE MORE TIME WITH MY DRONE.
DO YOU WAN
TO COME WITH US?
SURE.
SO, CAREY,
SOUNDS LIKE JOE'S WINNING YOU
OVER TO HIS SIDE.
NOT ENTIRELY.
HEY, IS THERE ANY NEWS
FROM AGENT CONNOR YET?
GOING TO HAVE
TO ASK HIM YOURSELF.
WHATEVER HE KNOWS,
HE'S NOT TELLING ME.
[CONNOR]:
PROFESSOR?
CONNOR! LOOK, LOOK!
I FOUND A BEAD.
IT'S A MATCH TO THE WORRY BEADS,
AND TICHNOR DROPPED I
RIGHT HERE, RIGHT WHERE
HE WOULD HAVE BEEN
DRAGGING THE BODY
INTO THE TRENCH
WE HAVE SOMETHING
MORE IMPORTANT TO TALK ABOUT.
THE TOXICOLOGY REPOR
CAME BACK.
TICHNOR WAS POISONED.
WHAT?
AGROSTEMMA GITHAGO, A PLAN
THAT'S FOUND IN THIS AREA.
I KNOW WHAT IT IS.
I WROTE A PAPER ABOUT IT.
YOU WROTE THE DEFINITIVE PAPER
ON ITS USE AS A POISON
IN THE 17TH CENTURY.
I KNOW.
[SHERIFF]:
PROFESSOR FIELDING?
GOING TO HAVE TO ASK YOU
TO COME WITH US.
WE HAVE SOME QUESTIONS
ABOUT THE MURDER
OF GRAHAM TICHNOR.
[SHERIFF]: IT'S MUCH MORE
THAN A COINCIDENCE, EMMA.
GRAHAM TICHNOR, POISONED,
WITH A PLAN
THAT YOU'VE RESEARCHED,
AFTER YOU WERE THE LAST ONE
TO SEE HIM ALIVE.
BUT ANYBODY WHO READ MY PAPER
WOULD KNOW ABOUT THAT POISON.
MAYBE SO,
BUT WE KNOW YOU WERE THERE
AROUND THE TIME HE DIED,
AND YOU HAVE A MOTIVE.
WHAT MOTIVE?
AGENT CONNOR SAYS YOU
WERE PRETTY WORKED UP
ABOUT HIS RAIDING YOUR SITE
AND NEARLY KILLING PAULINE.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
[CAREY]: HAVE YOU
PEOPLE LOST YOUR MINDS?
PROFESSOR FIELDING
NEVER COULD HAVE--
WHAT SHE MEANS TO SAY,
AGENT CONNOR,
IS THAT WE HAVE PROOF
THAT PROFESSOR FIELDING
IS INNOCENT.
PROOF?
TAKE A LOOK.
WATCH THE TIME CODE.
SHE WAS IN TICHNOR'S HOUSE
FOUR MINUTES.
SHE LEFT,
AND HE FOLLOWED HER OUT.
SEE?
[JOE]: THE POISON
TAKES EFFECT IMMEDIATELY,
SO IF SHE GAVE IT TO HIM
WHILE THEY WERE TOGETHER,
HE COULDN'T HAVE WALKED
OUT OF HIS HOUSE
A FEW MINUTES LATER.
TICHNOR WAS ALIVE
WHEN THE PROFESSOR LEFT.
GOOD WORK.
[TONY]:
COME ON IN, EVERYBODY.
I JUST WANTED TO SAY MY GOODBYE.
I'M HEADED BACK TO THE
COLLEGE THIS AFTERNOON,
AS YOU CONTINUE
TO WRAP UP THE SITE,
AND THOUGH WE WERE
UNSUCCESSFUL HERE,
I THINK THAT YOU ALL GAINED
INVALUABLE EXPERIENCE
WORKING UNDER OUR MOST LAUDED
PROFESSOR EMMA FIELDING.
[EMMA]: THANK YOU.
THANK YOU, PROFESSOR MARKHAM
AND I JUST WAN
TO THANK ALL OF YOU
FOR DIGGING YOUR HEARTS OUT.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.
THANKS, PROFESSOR.
THANK YOU.
AW, NICELY DONE.
[CAREY]: I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE
THIS IS THE END.
ALL OUR WORK DOWN THE DRAIN.
IT'S NOT SO BAD.
LIKE PROFESSOR MARKHAM SAID,
WE DID GAIN
VALUABLE DIG EXPERIENCE.
OKAY, YEAH, IT'S PRETTY BAD.
GUYS
I HEARD AGENT CONNOR TALKING
ABOUT THE CASE LAST NIGHT.
HE WAS SAYING THIS WHOLE THING
COULD BE THE WORK
OF AN INTERNATIONAL RING
OF ART THIEVES.
THEIR TECHNIQUE IS
TO USE LOCAL PEOPLE
TO STEAL
PRECIOUS ARTIFACTS.
WAIT, BUT AUGIE AND TICHNOR
ARE BOTH DEAD,
SO WHO COULD
THE LOCAL PERSON BE?
LAKSHMI,
GODDESS OF PROSPERITY.
WHO?
PAULINE'S
GODDESS STATUE.
SHE SHOWED IT TO ME.
PROFESSOR FIELDING
SAID IT WAS MISSING.
YOU'RE THINKING
THEY'D BE AFTER THAT STATUE.
SO IF WE FIND THE STATUE
WE FIND THE THIEF.
GOT IT!
THAT'S THE ONE?
YUP. THERE ARE ONLY FOUR
IN EXISTENCE,
INCLUDING PAULINE'S.
OKAY.
SO
WHO HAD THE MOTIVE
AND THE OPPORTUNITY?
PROFESSOR FIELDING'S
ALWAYS SAYING
IT'S NOT JUST HOW TO DIG,
IT'S WHERE TO DIG.
HMM.
[FOOTSTEPS]
HEY
DOES LOOKING LIKE
A BAD BOY SUGGEST
THAT YOU REALLY ARE BAD?
[MOTORCYCLE REVS]
ENJOY.
NIKKI?
I NEED TO TALK
TO YOU OUTSIDE.
I CAN'T GET AWAY.
WE'RE TOO BUSY.
IT'S ABOUT WILL.
COVER FOR ME,
WILL YA?
SO WHERE ARE WE GOING?
I DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME.
TRUST ME, YOU'RE GOING
TO WANT TO HEAR THIS.
GET IN.
IT'S IMPORTANT.
WHAT?
I NEED TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING.
NO WAY.
I CAN'T GO WITH YOU.
CAN'T, OR WON'T?
WHAT'S THE MATTER, NIKKI?
AFRAID THERE'S SOMETHING
WRONG WITH MY CAR?
I KNOW YOU CUT MY BRAKE LINE.
WHAT?
ARE YOU TRYING
TO SCARE ME?
LIKE HOW YOU TRASHED
MY HOTEL ROOM?
I DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.
YOU KNOW, AGENT CONNOR
HASN'T FOUND A MATCH
FOR THOSE FINGERPRINTS.
BET HE'D LOVE TO CHECK YOURS.
YOU CAN TALK TO HIM,
OR YOU CAN TALK TO ME.
IT'S YOUR CALL.
IT'S WILL
YOU SHOULD BE QUESTIONING.
WHY?
YEAH, YOU DON'T KNOW.
YOU WERE ONLY HERE SUMMERS.
HE'D SEE YOU
AND GET ON
HIS BEST BEHAVIOR.
YOU DON'T WAN
TO BELIEVE IT?
YOU WON'T BE
THE FIRST WOMAN
TO FALL FOR HIS LIES.
HE LOOKS TOTALLY DISTRACTED.
LET'S GO FOR IT.
IT'S LOCKED.
OKAY, HE'S DOWN
IN HIS BOAT.
MAYBE WE COULD BREAK IN.
WE COULD ALSO DO
A FIVE-YEAR STRETCH
FOR BREAKING AND ENTERING.
I SIGNED UP FOR AN ADVENTURE,
NOT A FELONY.
OKAY, WELL, MAYBE
HE HID THE STATUE
OUTSIDE THE SHOP.
THAT WAY, IF HE GOT BUSTED,
HE COULD CLAIM IT WASN'T HIS.
SURE, I MEAN, IT'S A LONG SHOT,
BUT WHAT THE HECK.
YOU KEEP AN EYE ON THE BOAT.
GOT IT.
HEY, CAREY!
WHEW.
SORRY.
OKAY! JUST
WILL?
HEY, EM.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
EXACTLY WHAT I CAME HERE
TO ASK YOU.
WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.
WHAT'RE YOU DOING?
WE'RE DRIFTING FROM THE DOCK.
YEAH, JUST TAKING HER
FOR A TEST SPIN.
I JUST TUNED HER UP.
NO, NO, WILL, FORGET IT.
I CAN'T
WE'LL BE QUICK.
YOU PROBABLY HAVEN'T BEEN
ON THE WATER
SINCE YOU'VE BEEN BACK.
SHE'S LEAVING
WITH HIM.
THIS ISN'T GOOD.
YOU CAN SAY THAT AGAIN.
REMEMBER WHEN WE USED
TO COME TO THIS COVE
WHEN WE WERE KIDS,
TALK ABOUT WHAT WE'D DO
WITH OUR LIVES?
I USED TO DREAM ABOUT THA
BACK WHEN I WAS
IN JAIL?
YES, ACTUALLY.
WHAT HAPPENED?
DESPERATION MET STUPIDITY
ON THE CORNER OF BACK LUCK.
NO EXCUSES.
ONLY REGRETS.
WILL, I HAVE TO ASK YOU
SOMETHING.
EM, LOOK,
I HAD NOTHING TO DO
WITH ANY OF THIS.
TICHNOR TALKED TO YOU.
NOW HE'S DEAD.
MY DIG'S BEEN SHUT DOWN.
YOUR GIRLFRIEND, NIKKI,
SABOTAGED MY CAR.
SHE WHAT?
OKAY, FIRST OF ALL,
SHE'S NOT MY GIRLFRIEND,
SO WHATEVER SHE DID,
I KNEW NOTHING ABOUT IT.
SO TICHNOR, AUGIE, NIKKI
EVERYBODY'S GUILTY BUT YOU?
OKAY.
I HAVEN'T EXACTLY BEEN
FORTHCOMING,
I'LL ADMIT IT.
TICHNOR WANTED
TO GET HIS HANDS ON YOUR MAP,
BUT I TOLD HIM I WANTED
NOTHING TO DO WITH IT,
AND THAT I WOULD REPORT HIM
IF HE TRIED.
THEN WHEN I FOUND OU
THAT YOUR MAP HAD BEEN STOLEN,
I CONFRONTED HIM.
HE SWORE UP AND DOWN
IT WASN'T HIM.
AND YOU BELIEVED HIM?
DIDN'T MATTER
IF I BELIEVED HIM OR NOT.
I CAN'T AFFORD ANY TROUBLE,
NOT WITH MY RECORD.
SO YOU LE
TROUBLE COME TO ME?
HE RENTED MY BOAT
TICHNOR.
PAID ME A LOT OF MONEY.
I DIDN'T ASK HIM
ANY QUESTIONS,
DIDN'T KNOW WHERE
HE WAS GOING WITH IT,
AND THEN THE NEXT DAY,
WHEN I WAS OUT ON THE WATER,
THE DAY AUGIE'S BODY
WAS FOUND
I SAW WHAT WAS GOING ON
OVER AT YOUR DIG SITE.
YOU LIED TO ME ABOUT THAT.
I SAW A YELLOW JACKET,
THE ONE THAT AUGIE WORE.
IT WAS ON MY BOAT,
SO I FIGURED
HE WAS ON HERE WITH TICHNOR.
LOOK, I DIDN'T WAN
TO GO TO JAIL,
SO I THREW IT OVERBOARD.
WHY DIDN'T YOU COME TO ME?
WHAT COULD YOU HAVE DONE?
THEY WOULD HAVE SAID THA
I WAS AN ACCESSORY TO MURDER,
A MURDER THAT I SWEAR
I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH.
WILL
THEY'RE NOT GOING
TO BELIEVE ME!
I'M A CRIMINAL, RIGHT?
EVEN YOU THINK THAT.
[PHONE BEEPS]
WHAT?
WHAT IS IT?
THEY FOUND MY MAP
AND PAULINE'S STATUE
HIDDEN BEHIND YOUR DIVE SHOP.
NO.
THAT'S NOT RIGHT.
DID YOU SET THE FIRE?
NO!
I LOVE PAULINE.
DID YOU KILL AUGIE?
- NO!
TICHNOR?
ABSOLUTELY NOT!
EMMA, COME ON, IT'S ME!
YOU KNOW ME!
WHAT DO I KNOW, WILL?
LOOK, I HAVE MADE SOME MISTAKES
IN MY LIFE,
BUT I AM NOT ABOUT TO LET YOU
SEND ME BACK TO JAIL!
[EMMA]: TAKE ME BACK.
TAKE ME BACK.
LOOK, I'M SORRY.
EM I
[POLICE SIREN WAILS]
EVERYTHING I TOLD YOU
IS THE WHOLE TRUTH.
I PROMISE, I HAD NOTHING
TO DO WITH THE MURDER,
THE FIRE,
OR ANYTHING ELSE.
HEY!
HEY.
- YOU OKAY?
YEAH.
GOOD TIMING ON
THAT POLICE BOAT.
OH, WELL, YEAH.
YOU HAVE TO THANK JOE AND CAREY
FOR THAT,
AND FOR RECOVERING
YOUR STATUE AND YOUR MAP.
IT WAS A
WILL'S DIVE SHOP.
I DON'T THINK
HE'S THE ONE WHO TOOK THEM.
YOU THINK
HE'S NOT INVOLVED?
NO, NO,
I THINK HE'S INVOLVED.
I JUST THINK
THERE'S SOMETHING MORE,
SOMETHING WE'RE MISSING.
OKAY.
I'M GOING TO GO
TALK TO HIM NOW.
I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER.
OKAY.
I'M GOING TO GO TAKE
ONE LAST LOOK AT THE DIG SITE.
EMMA.
I SEE YOU DIDN'T LEAVE TOWN.
COULDN'T WAIT TO GE
YOUR HANDS DIRTY, HUH?
EVERY TRENCH NEEDS
A PROPER HARD EDGE
TO MEASURE DEPTH.
MY FATHER TAUGHT ME TO KEEP
THAT EDGE FACING THE SUNRISE.
TAUGHT YOU, TOO.
LESSONS FROM
THE GREAT OSCAR FIELDING.
YEAH, APPARENTLY,
YOU SLEPT THROUGH
SOME OF YOURS,
OTHERWISE YOU MIGHT'VE
LIVED UP TO YOUR POTENTIAL,
MADE SOME DISCOVERIES
OF YOUR OWN
INSTEAD OF KILLING
TO STEAL MINE.
WELL, THE FBI SEEMS TO BE
UNDER THE IMPRESSION
THAT THERE IS
AN INTERNATIONAL ART THEFT RING
AT WORK HERE.
YEAH.
THAT WAS AGENT CONNOR
SOWING A LITTLE MISINFORMATION,
LIKE YOU DID
WITH AUGIE AND TICHNOR
WHEN YOU TOLD THEM
I WAS SEARCHING
FOR THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND'S
GOLD COINS.
IS THAT HOW YOU GOT THEM
TO INTERFERE WITH MY DIG?
THEN THEY GOT OU
OF YOUR CONTROL?
AUGIE THREATENED ME.
TICHNOR STARTED SEARCHING
FOR THE TREASURE ON HIS OWN.
SO YOU KILLED THEM BOTH,
THEN YOU SET THE FIRE
AT PAULINE'S,
FRAMED WILL.
THAT'S QUITE A MESS
OF ACCUSATIONS.
AND WHY WOULD I DO THAT?
THIS WHOLE TIME,
YOU'VE BEEN TRYING
TO SHUT DOWN MY SITE,
TAKE THE GLORY FOR YOURSELF.
YOU KNEW WE WERE GOING
TO FIND SOMETHING HERE,
PROVE MY FATHER RIGHT.
YOUR FATHER MAY HAVE BEEN
AN ABSOLUTE SAINT TO YOU,
BUT HE WAS NOT TO ME.
HE CRITICIZED MY RESEARCH.
HE DISMISSED MY PROPOSALS.
HE BELITTLED ME
AT EVERY TURN.
HE DID EVERYTHING
THAT HE COULD
TO ENSURE MY FAILURE.
I JUST NEEDED
SOME ADDITIONAL PROOF HERE
THAT THIS IS THE RIGHT PLACE.
AFTER SOME TIME,
I'D SECURE SOME MORE FINANCING
AND REOPEN THE DIG
MY DIG.
DO YOU REALLY THINK
I'M NOT GOING TO SAY ANYTHING?
DO YOU THINK I'M GOING
TO LET YOU TAKE ALL OF THIS
AWAY FROM ME?
WELL, I HAD HOPED
THAT YOU WOULD BE SMART.
LIKE I SAID BEFORE,
YOUR DRIVE, YOUR URGE
TO PROVE YOUR FATHER RIGH
IS FAR TOO GREAT,
SO, UNFORTUNATELY,
I WON'T BE ABLE
TO LET YOU LEAVE HERE ALIVE.
EMMA!
THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY
THIS IS GOING TO END.
EMMA!
THERE'S NO POIN
IN RUNNING.
BEST GIVE UP NOW.
YOU CAN'T WIN THIS.
WE'LL SEE.
[CONNOR]:
I DON'T KNOW, MARKHAM.
MY MONEY'S ON EMMA.
I APPRECIATE YOU
SHOWING UP WHEN YOU DID.
YOU HAD HIM.
GLAD YOU THOUGHT SO.
WHY'D YOU COME OUT HERE?
OH, I BROUGHT YOU
SOMETHING
I THINK YOU'RE GOING
TO WANT TO SEE.
THERE WE GO.
A PRESENT?
UH, NOT YET,
BUT MAYBE SOMEDAY.
IT'S ACTUALLY EVIDENCE.
CAN WE GO INTO
YOUR FATHER'S LAB?
YEAH.
SO, WHAT'S GOING
TO HAPPEN TO WILL?
TAMPERING WITH EVIDENCE.
HE'LL NEED A GOOD LAWYER.
WILL HE GO BACK
TO JAIL?
THAT'S HARD TO TELL.
IT WOULD HELP IF HE HAD
A RENOWNED ARCHAEOLOGIS
AS A CHARACTER WITNESS,
IF YOU HAPPEN TO KNOW ONE.
THINK I JUST MIGHT.
I, UH
I FOUND THIS AT TICHNOR'S.
IT'S THE PITCHER
I DISCOVERED!
IT'S THE PITCHER
I DISCOVERED
I DISCOVERED THE PITCHER.
I FOUND THE PITCHER.
NO, YOU DIDN'T EVEN
KNOW WHAT IT WAS
UNTIL I TOLD YOU.
I ADMIT, PROFESSOR
WE WORK WELL TOGETHER.
WE DO.
I THINK
WE DESERVE A LITTLE FUN.
OKAY.
YOU MAY THINK THIS IS FUN,
BUT MY BACK IS NOT AMUSED.
HEY, LESS COMPLAINING,
MORE SIFTING.
YOU ARCHAEOLOGISTS,
YOU KNOW, BUST INTO TOMBS
FIGHT SNAKES
AND BAD GUYS
AND MAKE OFF
WITH PRICELESS OBJECTS.
YEAH, WE DO
IN THE MOVIES.
[CHUCKLES]
CONNOR!
WHAT?
LOOK.
WHAT IS THAT?
IT'S A THEODOLITE.
IT'S A SURVEYOR'S INSTRUMENT.
IS THIS THE PROOF
THAT YOU AND YOUR FATHER
WERE LOOKING FOR? DID
YEAH!
IT IS?
YES!
CONGRATULATIONS!
WELL DONE, EMMA
EMMA PROFESSOR.
