[SUNNY] He's your partner!
[TESS] Ex-partner.
You're the bravest person
I've ever known.
Tess, I'm taking the transfer
to Undercover.
No contact with anyone outside the unit.
[GUN FIRES]
[KYE] Sunny.
[FIONA] Let's talk about
your agoraphobia,
let's talk about your PTSD,
or at why you don't want
to talk about it.
[SCREAMS]
When I logged in on your computer,
you stole my password.
How could you do that?
Kye! Don't walk away from me!
[LUCAS] Craig and I are getting married.
You're supposed to congratulate me.
Look, Lucas, you and I
we were built to hurt people, okay?
We learned from the best.
You just have to be a better
judge of character in the future.
You were right about my brother.
Well, cheers to that.
[LUCAS] Tess! I messed up!
I'm in trouble!
[TESS] Lucas?
I lost everything!
It's over.
What's so French
about French toast, anyway?
It's just bread and eggs.
You get to add maple syrup.
So it's French-Canadian toast?
Just have another mimosa.
You'll get the hang of it.

[CRAIG] You know,
I wasn't going to say anything
about your stupid shirt
or your stupid necklace.
- Oh?
- But there you go.
I'll talk to you later.
What's up?
He's mad.
- [TESS] Everyone?
- Look
Here is something
that might resemble French toast.

Oh, girl, what'd you do?
Ransack a henhouse?
[TESS] Ha, ha.
This looks delicious, Tess.
This is a serious level-up, Tess.
You invited people into your home,
you fed them
it's like you're trying
to create community.
[LUCAS] There you go!
[TENSELY] I can plate
my own breakfast, Lucas.
[LUCAS] I'm just trying to help.
We all know how well that can turn out.
[SUNNY] Trouble in paradise?

Thank you. Cheers!

Whoo!
[SHOT FIRES]
There's something in the shadows ♪
[TESS] Is everything okay
with you and Lucas?
[CHUCKLES] Don't worry.
I'm not gonna cancel the wedding,
but your brother can't be trusted.
Craig, you know
he's really disappointed in himself.
Yeah, well, that makes two of us.
This really was a nice brunch, Tess.
[PHONE RINGS]
[PHONE CONCIERGE] Call from Leo.
- Hey.
- Tess.
When you were a baby cop,
did you do that module on plastic guns
at the Academy?
I did.
Okay, true confessions
at that time, I was deep in
a situationship
I do not regret to this day.
As a result,
I don't remember the module much.
Leo. Has there been a shooting?
Uh-huh.
Victim is Angela Devine.
Shot three times.
She was on the move
and I'm not saying that
just because she's wearing
$600 trail shoes.
F.I.S. dug out
two splintered plastic bullets
at the scene.
They're 0.9-millimetres,
which means any number of firearms
could've been used.
So, it doesn't necessarily mean
- But it could!
- Maybe.
All right. Uh
talk to me about the crime scene.
It's a wooded area.
Remote.
Bit of a runner's trail
weaving through the trees.
F.I.S. found the bullets north of,
and 20 feet from, the body.
Okay. Imagine a line drawn
through the victim's body
perpendicular to the bullets.
All right.
Now, on the side
opposite the F.I.S. team,
create four pie-shaped segments
that add up to 180 degrees.
Which quadrant has the most cover?
[♪♪♪]
Third quadrant.
There's a big tree,
lots of foliage for cover.
Check it out.
Look at you doing math and geometry.
Helps when you like pie.
Way too many trans fats.
I don't see anything.
Don't look.
Touch.
Feel.
So this is it, huh?
Chapter one in Tess Avery's
crime-solving manual?
Don't expect anything. Go slowly.
There's something on the leaves.
Tiny filaments. Spatter bumps.
What colour are they?
Blue.
Like the bullets.
That kind of residue
only comes from a gun.
Yeah, it's not a "maybe" anymore.
[QUIETLY] Pew.
[TESS] Untraceable
and fully functioning.
The killer used a ghost gun.
[LEO] Angela Devine was killed
by an untraceable
3D-printed plastic gun.
She is the first victim
to be killed by a ghost gun
in this city, ever.
It's usually gangs
that traffic in ghost guns.
Yeah, gangs would be better
than "citizen with a grudge
and a 3D printer."
[OWEN] Mia famiglia!
I have just returned from the '80s,
where finance bros are still a thing,
even if you're a sis,
and our victim was the bro-iest.
She was married to her work,
drove an Arancio Borealis Lamborghini,
and was christened
"King of the Jag-offs" 00
also still a word,
although now it's gender-neutral.
So she was well-liked?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Demanding, humorless, aggressive
and she led all her team
to million-dollar bonuses,
so, yeah, there were real tears
there today.
Long live the King.
[SUNNY] "Explain to Rigby's wife
about our affair."
No. That's a big one.
"Reach out to Mother."
Gargantuan.
"Apologize to Kye."
Yeah.
Yes! I can do that, right now.
[PERKILY] "Hey, Kye!
It's me, the recluse from 93.
It's been a minute."
[QUIETER] "Hey there."
It's Sunny
in case you deleted me,
which I can't blame you for."
"I would really
like to try to connect."
- [CLICK]
- [WHOOSH]
[♪♪♪]
"Of course, take your time."
- [CLICK]
- [WHOOSH]
[♪♪♪]
Come on, Kye.
Don't make me talk to my mom.
[♪♪♪]
[SIGHS]
God, Angie
I can't believe it.
Should've lived forever.
You were on a ferry this morning?
Oh, ferry ran late.
I spent three hours
in the parking lot
two on the boat.
Un believable. Unbelievable!
See, this is why
I come in on Sunday mornings.
Rolling in late on a Monday
is not a good look.
So Ms. Devine's not someone
you want to disappoint?
The "Werewolf of Wall Street"?
You sure as hell don't.
She'll rip your throat out.
But everyone wants to work for her.
Nerves of steel,
which you need
when you're betting millions.
And making millions?
Yeah! Even in a bad year.
Nice suit.
Did she have it in for anyone?
We made money.
No one wants to turn that off
especially in this economy.
Can I roll now?
Market never sleeps.
I'll walk you out.
Oh! Sorry.
- You okay?
- Yeah, I'm
I'm so sorry for your loss.
Thanks. Yeah. It's It's sad.
Mm.
See ya.
"See ya"?
You know, I know everyone
walks out of that room
with an elevated heart rate,
but that guy's pulse was racing.
Oh? We'll check his alibi.
And the rest of the "bros".
[OWEN] Hey.
There was a shooting in Strathcona
a 42-year-old man.
He survived, but the surgeon
dug out a plastic bullet for a souvenir.
Guess the lucky colour?
That's on the other side of town
from this morning's shooting.
And it was the second one
in less than 24 hours.
I can't remember,
does two make "a spree"?
- It's how a spree starts.
- Mm-hmm.
[♪♪♪]
Would be murder ♪
I saw nothing.
Which is the goal, right?
Whatever you can remember and describe
would be useful, Mr. Maz.
Oh. Call me "Maz".
Just Maz.
You guys know who I am, right?
[LEO] "Shoe by Maz".
[MAZ] You know my work?
Uh, last shoe I name-checked was, um
that guy
- with heels.
- Uh-huh.
[MAZ] Somebody cares.
Maz, did you hear anything, or
notice any movement after you were shot?
Uh, I know the shot came from
the back of the property.
There's this gap
between the security door
and a utility pole.
You work in a very competitive business.
A lot of people can get jealous.
Maybe shoot-you jealous?
Pfft. Those gutless hacks?
They ain't got the stones.
Or the ovaries.
Last week, I took out
another massive loan
to start my new line.
I am comfortable with risk.
Money isn't freedom
art is.
Any impression at all of the shooter?
I caught a glimpse of his hand.
Looked white.
- "His"?
- You're right.
Could've been a woman.
In which case, uh,
girlfriend could use some sun ♪
[♪♪♪]
So, Maz is sitting in his backyard,
bullet hits him in his left shoulder,
and as he's going down,
he sees the shooter's finger
on the trigger.
So the shooter
was tucked behind the shed
the gun was sticking out
around the corner,
which means they are left-handed.
With Angie's killer
behind the big cedar,
that's a natural swing
for a left-hander.
Doesn't rule out
a right-handed shooter, guys.
But what we do know is,
the killer was low to the ground
when Angie came into view.
The shots all angled up, remember?
Right, but they angled down
for the shoe maestro,
which normally suggests
an experienced shooter,
except F.I.S. dug out
as many bullets from the trees
as were found in the victim.
Farley's alibi checked out.
CCTV from the parking lot
and the ferries.
Okay, so, he's out as a shooter.
Where are we on the 3D printer front?
Ah, we got uniforms
visiting public-use printers,
but everyone's got
a home printer these days.
[EYESUP RINGTONE BEGINS]
Oh.
Hey. What's up?
[SUNNY] So I dug up what I could
on Maz's business,
which is hard to do,
since he's a private company,
but he's re-financed his business twice,
barely paid off the loans.
Talk about being devoted to your art.
Sunny, they're shoes.
They are sculptures that you wear.
Anyhow, he's basically broke,
which seems like
a badge of honour for him.
- Good luck.
- Thanks.
- [BEEP]
- All right, well,
Sunny just confirmed
Maz is as bad with money
as he's good with shoes.
Where do these vics connect?
Different financials,
different fields
Different neighbourhoods.
Very different backgrounds.
Yeah, Angie's rich,
and Maz is still drinking
in dive bars on East Hastings.
[LEO] Angie's dead and Maz is alive.
Do we really have nothing?
They're called ghost guns for a reason.
[SIGHS]
[MACHINES CHUGGING]
Oh, my God! I want all those shoes.
[TESS] How long have you worked here,
Robbie?
Uh, two years, four months
12 days.
That's very specific.
Thank you.
What kind of a boss is Maz?
He's a visionary.
There's nobody better.
I quit a top internship
at ArcBlade Financial to work here.
You know, every day,
I know how lucky I am
to have been given this opportunity.
People would kill for
sorry.
Kill for the job?
Yes. In which case,
they should shoot me, not him.
He is a big personality,
but he shows an interest, you know?
I mean, this place
is basically grad school,
but for shoe design,
even if it's a little bit old-fashioned.
How's that?
If he modernized,
he'd see his market share
increase by 400%, easy.
Robbie's reacting to Chloe
she looks worried.
Is Chloe right?
Could the business do better
if it modernized?
I'll tell you what Maz would say
"every shoe must be shaped,
and no machine can do that."
Come on, Robbie!
If Maz went public,
he would make a fortune.
If Maz went public,
he wouldn't be in control
not that he's in control
of his finances
I mean, look at this place.
Can you tell us
where you were yesterday,
between six and eight p.m.?
Uh, yes.
I was actually at my dragon boat club
end-of-season party.
My team took second.
I have to check.
[LEO] It was 18 hours ago.
[MOUSE CLICKS]
Hmm!
Chloe's left-hand dominant.
Oh, you were going
to your mom's for dinner.
Yeah, I was supposed to,
but, basically
I crashed really early
and
My roommate probably saw me.
You know, Chloe's
the only person we met, so far,
where art and finance cross paths.
[SUNNY] So she's planning a takeover?
Well, it sounds dumb
when you say it like that,
but
it could connect the killings
possibly.
Hey. It's Owen Sorry.
So all the finance bros
who worshipped Angie
have been alibied as is her family,
scattered and otherwise,
that includes
Angie's
ex-husband, who mentioned
that she was not a big fan of Farley.
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.
How "not big"?
Management confirmed there was
a restructuring coming.
Farley was on the chopping block.
That's sort of irrelevant,
given his alibi.
Yeah, but that's
one hell of a motivator.
Mm-hmm.
You know, the only place
where it might come together
is your girl
from Maz's workshop Chloe.
All the other employees,
their alibis check out.
Chloe's the only one with
her foot in both worlds, though.
She doesn't have an alibi
for either shooting.
She's barely worked there
long enough to hate her boss.
She is left-handed, though,
which is all we know
about Maz's shooter so far.
- Right.
- [PHONE CHIMING]
- Oh.
- In the photos
from Chloe's desk,
there was a MakersMarket card
which is
"a membership-based club
for creative creation".
That's a whole lot of redundant.
Yeah. Hey!
[OWEN] Yeah?
My guide says Chloe was
part of a "digital creation"
membership club.
Digital creation, meaning 3D printers?
- Top of the line.
- [TESS] Yeah.
[TESS] I guess
I'm going back to the workshop.
I'll talk to my guy
about the printer records.
You have "a guy"?
[TESS] Maybe you should get one, Owen.
All right.
[SUNNY] Six steps straight ahead.
Oh, Robbie's seated to your right.
You're closing early?
Mm.
Well, Maz decreed an early close
out of respect for himself,
so I lit a candle and kept working.
You said working here
is a great opportunity
for young designers?
Yeah. I mean, the hours are long,
and he expects a lot
[SUNNY] Tess!
The heels on Chloe's desk!
Do you know where Chloe is
right now?
[ROBBIE] That's one of Chloe's.
Isn't it beautiful?
It's like the Eiffel Tower.
[TESS] These ridges
I understand that's typical
with 3D printing?
Yeah. It's just a little
nothing-hobby of Chloe's.
She knows Maz would never go for them.
He's all about artisanal craftsmanship.
[♪♪♪]
Is there a printer here?
No. He would never
[♪♪♪]
[PHONE RINGING]
You calling about the printer records?
Wish I wasn't.
You remember clubbing?
Live shows?
Or that time that you forced me
to cycle to Squamish and back?
Ha! Oh, man.
That feels like a hundred years ago.
And I didn't "force" you.
[SNICKERS] Yeah, you totally forced me.
Listen, we'll do it again, okay?
- I promise.
- Mm-hmm.
So any luck with the?
The MakersMarket 3D printer specs? Yeah.
[WHACKS KEY]
Found Chloe's account.
So do you wanna hear
about all the 3D shoe heels
that she pushed through that printer?
Damn it.
Maybe I'll just skip ahead
to the gun she printed
along with a couple dozen bullets.
Smart shooting,
an untraceable weapon
and then our potential shooter
falls apart in the post-game?
Chloe printed the gun. She has no alibi.
We haven't found the gun.
Nor have we seen her on CCTV.
And she has no motive.
Yeah. A few hours in an actual cell,
she'll find one.
Or
Or they're separate incidents?
These bullets look like
they came from the same batch.
They can't be unconnected.
Can they?
"So I realized
that the hardest thing that I learned
the first year
that I left
was that I didn't have
to listen to you anymore"
"because you weren't
really there, Mother,
even though you were still in my head."
Harsh.
But not untrue.
[♪♪♪]
[LINE RINGING]
Hi, it's Kye. Leave a message.
[BEEP]
Hi!
Uh so I realize
that texting is cowardly
but I wanted to say thank you
and I didn't know how else to do it
that was sort of in-person.
Because of you,
I'm working with a therapist
and she's helping.
And I'm so sorry
that I took advantage and that I lied.
And Kye, no matter what
I will never do that again.
[♪♪♪]
[EYESUP RINGTONE BEGINS]
We don't have it yet.
So we keep telling it till we do.
[SUNNY] Let's start again.
Chloe shoots Maz
Chloe's working at a financial firm.
She jumps into the shoe business.
Her main concern is
how Maz could mechanize
and make more money.
But her heels were beautiful.
She's the real deal.
[OWEN] Chloe shows up at Angie's firm,
says she's got a takeover target.
Yeah. Angie buys in.
The two women talk to Maz about it.
Maz agrees at first
they start spending real money
on due diligence,
which illuminates
Maz's shaky financial past
and kills the deal.
And in a fit of rage,
Chloe shoots them both.
I'd listen to that podcast.
Yeah.
Yeah, but we gotta find
a direct connection.
Uh okay, Sunny
can you go online again?
Can you dig around for any gossip
on how Maz treats his employees
especially the women?
I did. He's squeaky-clean.
Not a whisper anywhere.
[SIGHING] Not a whisper
which is weird.
Chloe shoots Maz,
and then shares her homemade gun
with someone
who would want to kill Angie.
What if
[♪♪♪]
Pretty sure Reddit has a, uh, subthread
on shared murder weapons.
[♪♪♪]
[SIGHS]
Chloe meets someone who hates Angie
at church?
Competitive chess!
Hey, Tess? I'm gonna send you a picture.
- [PHONE CHIMES]
- Oh. Hey, Leo?
Can you take a look at this?
It's from my guide.
What, she's doing a little
backseat detecting?
Okay, she's got a crimeboard.
She's got a string
crossing from Chloe to Angie
killer to victim?
[OWEN] She's got Chloe shooting Angie?
There's a second string
leading from "Unknown Shooter"
to Maz.
The strings are crossing.
Yeah, they cross.
Mm. Criss-cross
[REALIZING] It's a Hitchcock movie!
What what's the one uh
[TESS AND OWEN STAMMERING]
Uh, the Strangers on a Train!
Strangers on a Train!
In the movie,
two unhappy strangers meet.
They get to talking about
who they'd like to see dead
they swap murders!
Right. Right! I remember it.
And neither killer has a connection
to the potential victim.
And each guy has a perfect alibi
for their own target's time of death.
Criss-cross criss-cross.
Hey, you guys know who had
a perfect alibi for the morning
of Angie's murder?
Say it.
I have an alibi, so why am I here?
I know. It's hard to believe
it was just the other day, huh?
Mm. A few of us went out for
a little mini-wake that night.
Oh, we know. Your co-workers told us.
You don't think
someone at the firm did this?
I thought you financial guys
were "killers".
We are emotionally-stunted men
and women.
So, the wake started at 6:00.
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.
But you didn't show up till 7:33.
Whoa, 7:33, huh?
Huh!
- [PEN RUMBLES]
- [CLICK]
Hey Tess?
Hey, Owen!
Was that the sound of a pen
being caught by a left hand?
[TESS] It sure was. Wow!
Hey, Farley.
Where were you before the wake?
At home.
[♪♪♪]
Is that near your home?
Yeah. Not not too far.
Uh
I was out for a little walk.
[TESS] Maple and 22nd?
That's that's quite a ways
from your place.
Not too far from Maz's house.
Is that a gun in your pocket?
I had nothing to do
with Angie's death, okay?
But someone shot Angie,
and we think it was for you,
and these photos
make it look like
you were returning a favour.
[TESS] I guess you failed
your assignment, Farley.
Any worries that your partner
might be coming after you?
Or does this all land on you?
Who asked you to shoot Maz?
Who shot Angie for you?
Who is your partner?
[BLURTS] I don't know him!
[♪♪♪]
We've never met.
You don't scare me, Mother!
[♪♪♪]
Criss-cross
for the win!
And everybody goes like ♪
Wow! ♪
[WHEEZING]
- "And"
- [TYPING]
"I know that the separation
was good for me."
[WHEEZES]
"And I wish you every happiness,
Mother."
Just send it
Just send it.
Just
Oh, God. What did I do?
[DOOR THUDS]
I talked to my lawyer.
I don't have to say anything.
Hope you don't mind if we do?
Yeah, we want to just
make sure your lawyer
explained your culpability
in Angie's murder.
Maybe you didn't pull the trigger,
but you did plan it.
This is where you hope
we're good at our jobs.
Because if we don't find your partner
You're not just an accessory
you're also responsible.
I'm not scared of you guys.
Start crunching those numbers, Farley,
'cause they start at five-to-ten,
and they go all the way to life.
I already told you I don't know him.
Yet, somehow, you met.
Agreed to a conspiracy.
We met online.
In a game.
Hang tight.
So they plotted a murder inside a game?
It's guaranteed anonymity.
Farley referred to his partner as "he".
And Farley knows more
about his co-conspirator
than his pronouns guaranteed.
Level up, anyone?
"Bones of Dogs" is my go-to game.
It's violent, it's nihilistic,
it's the best way I know
how blow off steam.
I met "Berstarkers" during a stakeout.
Amazing player!
We talked.
And then
we talked.
I had work pressure.
He had personal trouble.
Such as?
He He said that that shoe guy, Maz,
came on pretty strong to his wife
like assaulted her.
She'd quit her job
and she was too afraid to go out,
and she wasn't getting any better.
You covered all of this
in an online game?
Yeah, there's a lot of lying in wait.
- You get deep.
- Ahem.
So, you-you kept talking to Berstarkers?
Yeah.
I told him that Angie had it in for me.
I knew that there were cuts coming.
I didn't see a better job in my future.
I mean, it's impossible to be
a "Young Turk" at 35, you know?
I was scared.
Did Berstarkers know it?
Yeah, it might've come up.
So
uh, one night, another stakeout
he asks me if I've seen this movie,
Strangers on a Train.
I read the synopsis. I got it.
Swap murders. Perfect alibis.
It was fun to talk about.
I kind of liked the idea
of helping out his wife.
And this entire time,
you two stayed strangers?
I mean, I might not have
known the guy's name, but
I felt really close to the guy.
For real.
Then, he says
he's got an untraceable gun
and that he'll take out Angie for me,
and then he'll pass the gun to me
and I'll do the same for him.
And I'm, like,
"Sure. It's a nice fantasy."
But you just thought
it was it was talk,
it wasn't really gonna happen?
Except, I'm on the ferry,
and my phone blows up,
and Angie's dead,
and the police want to see me,
and all I can think about is, "I'm
I'm supposed to kill Maz."
I know the time, the place
At this point,
I'm I'm scared of Berstarkers.
So I do it.
I go to the place,
and the shoe guy's sitting there,
meditating
And then you shoot him?
No, but I missed!
I mean, I hit him a little bit,
but I was trying to miss.
I couldn't kill a person! I-I couldn't.
Where's the gun now?
He told me to dump it in a bin
behind a strip mall on Fraser.
I'm scared he's gonna come after me.
I'll hit the strip mall,
see if the gun is still there.
Okay. I'll work Maz's employee files,
see if I can find the wife
or girlfriend who was assaulted.
You know, it's so specific,
it's so personal
telling somebody
your wife was assaulted.
I met my second wife in an online game.
It's amazing, the things you talk about.
So Sunny checked all the socials,
and nothing came up
about Maz being anything other
than a design genius.
Nothing negative at all?
A bad-boy shoe designer
in the fashion world,
yet, somehow,
he's led a blameless existence?
I hear what that sounds like now.
Sorry. I'll dig up some more.
Thanks, Sunny.
Hey, how'd your homework go?
Well, I haven't really heard from Kye,
and, um
I
I sent my mother a letter!
Wow. That's the first time
in years, isn't it?
Yeah. I don't think she's gonna respond.
I mean, I was more direct
than I've ever been.
Are you gonna tell me what was in it?
Of course.
You know, out of
all the couples at brunch,
I think we might be the strongest.
In each other's heads
anticipating one another's needs.
Yeah, ready to turn each other off
with the push of a button
it's perfect.
That part needs work.
[CHUCKLES]
So where are you headed?
We are headed to Matt's office,
to play a video game
called "Bones of Dogs".
It's the game where
Farley met his partner in crime.
He doesn't know
Berstarkers's real identity,
but other players might.
Farley gave us the green light
to use his avatar.
So you're looking for
a murderer inside a video game?
If it gets out
the police couldn't solve this,
who's gonna print the next ghost gun?
[SIGHS]
God, Tess.
The world seems like
such a scary place sometimes.
Yeah.
[PHONE CHIMES]
It's Kye.
Go. I'll check in later.
[♪♪♪]
This is Farley's character's voice.
Try it.
[TESS] Ahem.
[MENACING] Worship me
as your lord and master.
[MATT SNICKERS]
And I was thinking you lost your edge.
[NORMAL VOICE] Come on, dude. Never.
All right.
I'm gonna operate the avatar.
You just question the players.
You ready?
Yeah, let's do it.
Okay.
W-W-Wait. What's my character name?
B-S-D, dollar sign,
dollar sign, dollar sign.
Of course it is.
[BOLD GAME THEME RISES]
[MATT] We're in.

Susan Gill
spokes-thingy
let's find out who you are.
What exactly did you "clean up"?
[♪♪♪]
Greetings.
Are you storming the castle
or destroying the bridge?
[MODULATED] Bridge.
Have you seen Berstarkers?
[WARRIOR] Dude, you should
be there already
and Berstarkers's over there.
Tell him we could use him at the castle.
- He's here.
- I'm recording.
[TESS] That's our killer.
Where have you been?
[MODULATED] I left the gun
where you told me to.
[BERSTARKERS] Let's walk.
So you're that bad a shot?
The man was sitting down.
Motionless.
[MODULATED] I tried.
I did. I can try again.
[BERSTARKERS]
This has fallen off the rails.
[MODULATED] Yeah, man. I'm gutted.
How's your wife doing?
[BERSTARKERS] She's very determined.
[TO SELF] "Determined."
[♪♪♪]
"Oh, honey, take it easy."
"Robbie-bear, you're so cute
when you're drunk."
"That party was NSFW."
[♪♪♪]
Oh, God. Robbie.
[BERSTARKERS]
I kept my part of the deal.
You have to try again.
I want you to do
what you said you would.
[MODULATED] Yeah, I can take
another shot at him.
Tell me where to meet you for the gun.
[BERSTARKERS] Meet outside the game?
No.
One trap was enough.
- [GRUNTS]
- [SWISH]
[HEAD THUDS]
I was not expecting that.
- [EYESUP RINGING]
- Yeah.
Sunny?
Hey, Tess. Listen.
There's no dirt on Maz
because he pays someone
to scrub him clean
and he needs to,
because he abuses
the women who work for him.
Keep going.
Well, I put the pieces
of the story together,
and one post leads to another
which leads to another,
and, then, suddenly, you see it all.
I found
pictures
that seem to add up
to Robbie being assaulted by Maz.
For years.
"One trap was enough."
Robbie's dream job became her trap.
And it's why she said nothing
until she broke.
Did you found the ghost gun?
[OWEN] It wasn't in the bin,
which was still full of trash.
Looks like someone retrieved it.
Thanks.
So Farley's online partner was
a woman pretending to be a bro
so that she could enlist another bro.
Three more steps.
- [MAZ] What more do you want?
- [SUNNY] Tess
[ROBBIE] I'm running out of patience!
[SUNNY] Oh, my God.
There's blood on the floor.
Okay. 1:00.
11 steps and then
you'll be where they are.
But, Tess, wait.
Wait for back-up.
[ROBBIE] I wish I would've done this
years ago when you started.
[SUNNY] Robbie's pointing a gun at Maz.
He's on the floor.
There's there's bruising on his face.
[CHAIR HITS DESK]
- She's a cop!
- The gun's on you.
Robbie, I'm here to help you.
I don't want to shoot you.
Then don't shoot me
or him.
- The bitch is out of control!
- Shut up!
She's pointing the gun on Maz.
He's five steps away
10:00.
[TESS] Let's all take a breath.
There are police on their way.
Put the gun down, Robbie.
I don't want things
to get worse for you.
Worse?
"Worse" was
a long time ago.
"Worse" was
when he started tearing me down,
piece by piece.
I was teaching you!
You were grooming me!
[GASPS]
He was nice in the beginning.
I felt like I was finally
where I was supposed to be
and then he started tearing me down
telling me how terrible I was.
I was afraid I would lose everything
and that's when
he said he could help me.
He could shape me.
And that's when he started
sexually abusing you?
She's lying. What I did
was give her this career,
and this is
- how she repays me!
- [GUN FIRES]
- [MAZ] My hand!
- [SUNNY] She shot him.
She's still pointing the gun at Maz.
I think she's gonna kill him.
You wanted to protect Chloe.
But then you used her club membership
to print the gun,
and she became a suspect.
Yes, but that's not what I wanted.
She didn't do it, and now you know that,
so, um
she can have her life back.
Robbie, I want you to tell your story
in court
when Maz is on trial
for sexual misconduct.
That'll work.
What, he'll get a year
and then he'll walk
then he won't stop.
Her hand's shaking.
I don't think she wants to do this.
Tess
he's 15 feet away
directly in front of you.
Tess! No!
Get out of the way. Get out of the way!
Robbie
I know what a tough year is like.
I'm pretty deep into mine.
Every day tears me down,
and all I have to fight back
is my own fear and self-doubt.
What happened to you?
I lost my sight.
So I know what
the worst thing feels like
but I'm still here.
I'm not letting it destroy me.
If you're blind, then how
[TESS] I have a guide, a partner.
She's been through a lot, too.
Maybe I'm not as strong as you.
You're still here, too
so I'm guessing you are.
We will take him down together.
I will be right there with you
in the courtroom.
[SOBS] I killed that woman
a stranger.
I did that to see him dead
and all I ever wanted
was just to make something beautiful.
I know.
[WEEPS]
I know. I know.
[ROBBIE BEGINS WEEPING INCONSOLABLY]
[APPROACHING SIRENS WAILING]
[WEEPING CONTINUES]
[♪♪♪]
She just walked past her partner.
And she doesn't even know it.
They're perfect.
Oh, great! Okay.
'Cause they looked like your colours
- Yeah.
- to me.
- I'll get a vase.
- Okay.
Oh, I ordered from
this new place on 71st.
They specialize in wild game,
and I hear that their venison
is fantastic.
- Oh! Never had venison before.
- [PHONE CHIMES]
Is that deer?
Bad news?
No news.
You can tell me. It's okay.
I treasure you.
Oh.
Geez.
Um
I-I'm a little overwhelmed.
I'm a little overwhelmed.
I guess I'm "whelmed".
I'm whelmed, too.
[CHUCKLES]
What kinda news were you hoping for?
I ahem.
I reached out to my mother,
and, um, she hasn't answered,
and I guess I just feel like
I took a step out in the world,
and it sure feels like
the world doesn't care.
Well, that can't feel great.
Oh, God.
I didn't want to do this!
I didn't want to do this
I wanted to show you
my fun new therapized self.
That's fine by me.
Yeah? What do you think?
Um, I think
that you should
put those flowers in a vase.
Is that all?
No.
We're gonna turn this night around.
How much of this night?
All of it.
[♪♪♪]
What about dinner?
- What?
- Dinner?
Oh, the door guy'll get it.
Oh. [CHUCKLES]
Oh, boy.
This place is a dump,
and not even a fun one, so thank you.
You're welcome.
I thought Lucas would be
more comfortable here.
It's the kind of place
my mom would have run.
Stop neggin' on Mom.
She preferred to drink at home
with unsavory men.
I am so mad at you.
Of course, and you're right
I'm a screw-up of epic proportions.
You know, sometimes, I can
enjoy your juvenile behaviour,
because I can see the adult in you
the man
like this chrysalis
just begging to be cracked open.
He's so articulate.
- This isn't a joke!
- I'm not joking, okay?
It's part of the reason why I love you.
I want to be as good for you
as-as you are for me.
I took a job at a call centre.
It's not gonna buy us a wedding venue
Wait. You got a job at a call centre?
That is the most boring thing
you've ever done.
I'm just terrified for anybody
who picks up their phone.
I'm proud of you, Lu.
