Shine on me

Shine on me
(LAUGHS)
RICK: Good times, boys.
- Oh, yeah.
- Yeah, boy! (WATCH CHIMES) Oh, oh, guess what.
- You having twins? - Ah.
- Very funny, my friend.
- (CHUCKLES) Very funny.
Nope.
Suzy is getting her ultrasound today, which means I'm gonna see the first pic of my kid.
Oh, nice.
What's the deal with you and Suzy, anyway? Uh, not really sure.
For now, she's gonna stay in San Diego, finish out her residency.
Whatever you two decide, that's gonna be one lucky baby.
You're gonna make great parents.
And obviously, you know, 'ohana's got your back; whatever you guys need.
All right, why don't you start saving for the college fund now, because by the time the kid turns 18, it's gonna cost a fortune.
You guys want to go to Sweet E's, get a bite? Nah, I gotta split.
Gonna have the talk with Cade today.
The talk? Isn't he 16? I think that ship sailed.
(SCOFFS) Not that talk.
The one about school.
I want to get him reenrolled so he can get his life back on track.
Well, I guess when I need some dad advice I'll come to you from now on.
You know what, I'm up for food.
All right, let's go.
Let's go.
Munchie waffles on me.
You need to sign here, and initial here, here and here.
Hey.
What's going on? Well, I am finally returning Robin's Nest to Robin.
After she signs all these.
Doesn't your visa hinge on you owning this place? Well, it did, but MI6 pulled some strings with the State Department.
They secured me a new visa and a fast track to citizenship as a thank you.
That's really great, Higgy, but, uh, I mean, honestly, what about me? If I wasn't there, Cavendish would have got away with the data and surely caused the unfortunate demise of queen and country.
Well, sadly, I think you're just gonna have to be satisfied with me no longer being your boss.
(PHONE CHIMES) Oh, it's Shammy.
He says he needs our help with something.
Sorry to drop in on you like this.
- Oh, no need to apologize.
- Oh, thanks.
So what's going on, Sham? Well, I don't know, exactly.
I've got this homeless buddy.
He goes by Dart.
He's been coming to my vet support group for, I don't know, about the past year or so.
Dart had a big job interview coming up last Tuesday.
And he was so excited, and promised to keep me posted on how it went, but then he didn't show up for this week's meeting.
And he never misses.
So I'm starting to worry.
What do you think might have happened? He had a lot riding on that job.
Maybe the interview didn't go well, and he spiraled.
I want to make sure he's okay, but I've got no idea where to even start looking for him.
I'm sure we can help.
Do you have a photo of Dart? Yeah, um this is from a couple weeks back.
That's him next to me.
HIGGINS: And is there anything else you can tell us about him? Any small detail that might help? (SIGHS) He lives in a homeless encampment.
Don't know which one.
Well, I mean, maybe he chose one near to the V.
A.
That would narrow it down some.
Well, actually, I wouldn't go down that road just yet.
- He's holding a drink from Mahalo Subs.
- Yeah.
Maybe the truck was parked near his encampment.
Okay, but that truck's in a different spot every day.
Which is why they always post their location to social media.
What? Have you not had their meatloaf bacon melt? It's delicious.
(CHUCKLES) All right.
Uh, what day did you take that photo? Um, the 12th.
Okay.
Mahalo Subs.
On the 12th, they were in Chinatown.
Well, yeah, I guess we start there.
Yeah.
We'll keep you updated if we find something.
I really appreciate this.
Hopefully he's okay, I just I know what it's like to be in a dark place.
I'm guessing you do, too.
Yeah, yeah, we've all been there.
Don't worry, Sham, we're gonna find him.
(MUSIC PLAYING SOFTLY) Hey.
Yo.
I thought you were going to Island Hoppers today.
Yeah.
Um, I am.
But there was something I wanted to talk to you about.
I was just thinking, now that you're more settled, maybe it's time for you to go back to school.
We're too late.
It's January.
A new semester already started.
I don't think that'll be a problem.
It'd be weird, though.
Plus, now that I'm 16, I don't have to go back.
I'd rather just get my GED and keep working full time.
Well, that's one option, for sure.
But you know, high school is about a lot more than just the diploma.
The whole experience has value.
I mean, friends.
Extracurricular activities.
Girls.
I've got friends.
And I meet more girls working here than I did in school.
As far as activities, I'm not really a chess club kind of guy.
Yeah, I-I hear you.
But you know, high school is just the beginning.
I mean, you could do anything with your life.
Especially with your hustle.
Man, education's gonna open up doors Okay, okay, look.
I'm not going back.
Just drop it, okay? It was a good talk.
Yeah.
You all right? Yeah, I'm fine.
Is it Lia? Just said I'm fine.
You did, but you were lying.
So, is she still on leave, then? No, she's been back for a few days now.
Well, that's good.
I'm glad that whole nasty ransomware stuff is behind her.
Not so sure about that.
Gordie said since she's been back, and everyone knows she's the daughter of a crime boss, she's not been too popular at the precinct.
It can't be easy.
How's she handling it? Not sure, exactly.
I haven't seen her.
She's been pretty busy catching up, trying to regain her co-workers' trust back.
That kind of thing.
What about your trust? I don't know.
I understand why she'd want to keep it a secret, but to keep that secret from me, what does that say about the relationship? Have you talked to Lia about it? No, no, I think before I have that conversation, I need to figure out exactly how I feel about it.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER) (SIGHS) This is gonna be like finding a needle in a haystack.
Maybe they can direct us.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Hi.
I'm Tom, this is Juliet.
We're private investigators.
I'm Maggie, that's Jill.
Don't get many P.
I.
s around here.
Is there something we can help you with? HIGGINS: We're looking for a man named Dart.
We think he might live here.
Do you happen to know him? Yeah, we know him.
Not well, but he seems like a nice guy.
Haven't seen him today, but his tent is right over there.
It's the tall one with the blue top.
American flag on the front.
Great.
Thank you.
Thanks for the help.
Dart? You in there? Anybody inside? Excuse me, are you Dart? No.
I'm Cam.
Dartster's been gone.
I'm just watching his stuff.
You mind if we talk to you for a second? All right.
HIGGINS: Hey.
Uh, did Dart tell you when he was gonna be back? Why? Are y'all with the guy with the Jag? Who's that? MAGNUM: Look, we don't mean Dart any harm.
We're just concerned about him, that's all.
Okay.
I mean, Dart, he keeps to himself usually.
But last week, this guy in a golden Jaguar, he-he cornered him, tried to get him in his car.
Got arguing.
It got heated.
Suddenly Dart, he-he shoved the guy.
I've never seen him act like that.
You know, he just, like, lost it.
Then what happened? You know, a couple more words were said, and the guy took off.
Did Dart say who this man was? No.
He was pretty shooken up, though.
And a couple days later, Dart, he disappeared.
And I haven't seen him back since.
Well, thanks.
Okay.
It really begs the question, did Dart disappear on his own? Or did somebody make him disappear? Anything useful? Uh, there's a lot of stuff to sift through in here.
Pretty sad.
His whole life is in here.
Yeah.
Wedding band? Yeah, it's pretty heavy.
I think it's it's platinum.
It's got to be worth a couple thousand dollars.
It must mean something to him if he didn't pawn it.
It's got the maker's mark on the inside.
Might help track down the jeweler.
Yeah, but what are the odds they'd remember who they sold it to? Well, it does have an engraving on the inside, too.
HIGGINS: "Double Stuff.
" Inside joke? I don't know.
Whatever it means, I think it's getting us that much closer to finding a name.
You know, you didn't have to buy me lunch.
It's the least I can do.
You're my resident expert here.
- Yeah.
- (CHUCKLES) I thought you might know a way I can get through to Cade on this one.
Okay, how about this? Okay.
Ask him to just try school - for two weeks, that's all.
- Mm-hmm.
All right? Easier to convince a teenager if there's an end point.
He won't want to leave after that, but if he does, you gotta be okay with it, and so do the foster parents, of course.
What? See, the thing is, Cade didn't want to go back in the system, so Where's the boy living? I've been looking for an apartment, but I haven't found the right one yet.
So I just converted the office at Island Hoppers.
I-It's just temporary.
Cade's been sleeping in your hangar? Child Protective Services would have a field day with that.
Oh, come on.
He's comfortable and safe.
And I'm right outside in my trailer, so he's not really alone.
Still, it's no way for a kid to live.
Look, I understand.
I get it.
It's just temporary.
As soon as I find an apartment No, TC, you don't get it.
I'm in a tight spot now.
I gotta tell CPS.
Come on.
I'm confiding in you as a friend, not a cop.
I can't just look away.
Cade is a minor.
I am a mandatory reporter.
Look, I'm sorry, TC.
You have 48 hours to get Cade back into the foster system.
- Or what? - Or I'll have to do it.
(SCOFFS) So I just got off the phone with the jeweler, and the "Double Stuff" engraving did jog his memory.
It was for a wedding set he made 21 years ago for a couple named Karl and Lucy Dartan.
Hence "Dart.
" Brilliant.
Okay.
Well, let's see what we can find on Lucy Dartan.
Here we go.
Seems she's still married to Dart.
She lives in the house that they bought together, and his name is still on the deed.
So this guy's living on the street, but still owns the house.
Maybe Lucy could tell us why.
The man who fought with Dart drove a gold Jag.
Can't be a coincidence.
Hmm-mm.
(KNOCKS ON DOOR) Hi.
Can I help you? Yeah.
Sorry to bother you, but we're here about Karl.
Come in, please.
Dart.
That's his Army nickname.
He enlisted, uh, right after 9/11.
He loved the Army.
He really did.
He reupped a few times, but on his last tour, something something bad happened.
He came home in 2015, but he just He wasn't the same.
I'm guessing he had trouble reacclimating to civilian life.
Yeah.
You don't have to get into it if you don't want to, honey; it's too much.
Yeah, we're really sorry to ask you to dredge up painful memories.
Really, it's-it's okay.
You know, I-I want to help.
Uh, you're right.
He-he did have trouble.
He wasn't sleeping because of the nightmares, and, uh, he was just so angry.
He would lash out all the time.
He would just snap over the smallest stuff.
Were you ever able to get him any help? I tried.
The V.
A.
diagnosed him with PTSD.
He went to therapy, he did EMDR.
They put him on meds.
Nothing worked.
You know, he He hated what it was doing to me.
Seeing me walk on eggshells, afraid to set him off.
He knew I was not gonna give up on him.
But he felt that he was, uh ruining my life.
So, one day, he just He-he disappeared.
I'm so sorry.
You know, I searched for him for years.
And, eventually, I just (SNIFFLES) You know, I just had to force myself to move forward.
But for over six years I lived with that guilt of not knowing what happened to him until a few weeks ago.
What happened a few weeks ago? My car was in the shop, so I Ubered to work, and, uh, the driver took another route and we passed one of those homeless encampments.
And, uh that's when I saw him.
God, it was like seeing a ghost.
And I-I got out and I approached him, but he he didn't want anything to do with me.
And was it a similar sort of thing for you, Martin? What-what are you talking about? That is your Jag in the driveway? You went to see Dart, too.
(SIGHS HEAVILY) Lucy was heartbroken after she saw him.
I was, too.
He and I were friends first, so I went to see him.
Why didn't you tell me? Because you were so upset.
I-I didn't want to make it worse if it didn't go well.
Well, apparently it didn't go well, 'cause we did hear about the shoving match.
No.
Okay, no.
It-it wasn't like that.
I begged him to let us help, okay, and he refused.
But then he he got agitated.
How did you leave things? Uh (SIGHS) we made a deal.
I agreed that we'd never bother him again if he agreed to God accept a prepaid debit card.
I am so sorry for not telling you.
We're gonna need that card number.
I'm running Dart's debit card number now.
Oh, okay, I got it.
There are several charges, including one from nine minutes ago at Rainbow Drive-In.
Hi.
- I don't see Dart anywhere.
- Mm.
You said the charge was for $24.
95, right? Yeah.
Why? I think that guy's got his card.
He's got the Mahi Mahi Plate, the Loco Moco Bowl, chili fries and a drink.
Adds up to $24.
35.
Wow.
Hello.
Uh, sure, you can sit at my table.
We're private investigators.
We're working on a missing persons case.
What's that got to do with me? Well, the debit card which you paid for this meal with belongs to a man named Karl Dartan.
He's currently missing.
How'd you end up with his card? Okay, I I took it, but it's not like he was gonna use it.
Why's that? 'Cause he's dead.
So Dart's death was an accident? No, I said hit-and-run.
That was no accident.
What makes you so sure? The car was idling.
When that homeless guy walked by, it followed him.
He noticed, tried to get out of the way, but they swerved towards him and floored it.
Poor bastard never stood a chance.
- When was this, exactly? - Tuesday night.
What kind of car was it? Silver sedan.
Older model.
- Did you see the driver? - Too dark.
I checked the homeless guy, found the debit card.
He was dead, so I called the cops.
Gave 'em a location, described the car, but they asked my name, so I-I hung up.
Why? I might have an outstanding warrant or two.
Look, I'm really sorry.
Here.
Y-You can have it back.
You know what, go ahead and keep it.
Serious? Thanks for telling us what you saw.
Enjoy your lunch.
What kind of person would run over a homeless guy? And why is there no record of Dart's death in the system? Probably haven't ID'd his body yet.
(EXHALES) Yeah, it's him.
(SIGHS) (LOCKER SHELF ROLLS) (LOCKER CLOSES) Sorry for your loss.
Take your time.
- I'll be in the office.
- HIGGINS: Thank you.
Dart survived combat just to come home and get run down? That's (EXHALES) He was so excited about that interview.
He-he really felt like things were about to turn around for him.
Look, we know it was a hit-and-run, so there's no doubt the cops are gonna be investigating this.
And now that we've ID'd Dart and we know that it was deliberate, HPD has more information.
I'm not holding my breath.
Hit-and-runs are tough to crack.
And when the victim's homeless, I'm not sure how motivated they are.
Well, that's why we're gonna stay on this case until we figure out who Dart's killer is.
- Yeah.
- Thanks, guys.
Really, I appreciate it.
- MAGNUM: Of course.
- Of course.
Excuse me, just one question before we leave.
Did Dart have any possessions on him? Sure.
I handed it all over to the detective assigned to the case.
Who is that? You're saying this was deliberate? According to the eyewitness, yes.
Lia, will we be able to take a look at Dart's personal effects? Yeah.
Thanks.
(PLASTIC CRINKLING) What's this? MAGNUM: Address and a phone number.
That was in his pocket.
I tried the number, - but it's disconnected.
- (CAMERA CLICKS) What about the address? It's around the corner from where he was killed.
Commercial building with 60% vacancy.
Unis canvassed with a postmortem photo of Dart, but nobody recognized him.
And any idea why he would've had this address in his pocket? Well, Shammy did say that Dart had a job interview last Tuesday.
Same day he was killed.
Is it possible that somebody lured Dart to this location with the promise of employment only to mow him down? (SIGHS) Who would go through such an elaborate scheme? Well, I mean, the most obvious suspect is Martin Hadley, Lucy Dartan's boyfriend.
Maybe he felt like Dart resurfacing was some kind of threat to him and Lucy's relationship.
I'll look into Martin Hadley.
See where he was when Dart was killed.
Well, I mean, I could do that.
We would like to work with you on this, if that's all right.
Look, my rep has already taken a hit, and if it looks like I have to go outside HPD to do my job Nobody has to know.
Well, from what you said, Dart served his country with honor.
We owe him justice.
Screw how it looks.
(CHUCKLES SOFTLY) Uh, I'll head back to the car and start the background on Martin Hadley.
- I-I'll see you there.
- Yeah.
Um Uh, we should You want to talk? Yeah.
(CHUCKLES) Really? - (CHUCKLES) - Interrogation room, huh? It's the only private room.
(CHUCKLES) Hope we're not being recorded.
So What's going on with us? I don't know.
(SIGHS) I mean, I'm just a little messed up right now.
I worked so damn hard to get where I am, and now it feels like I'm just starting from square one.
No, no.
The officers, the detectives here, they know what kind of cop you are.
It doesn't matter.
I'm not the cop they know anymore.
I am Jonny Kim's daughter.
I think it's less about who your father is and more about the fact that you lied to everybody.
Including me.
I did.
I was scared.
I didn't trust that the people around me would see me for me, and now I'll never know if they would've.
I'm sorry, Thomas.
Apology accepted.
(CHUCKLES SOFTLY) So, where do we go from here? (PHONE CHIMES) Damn.
Uh, I'm wanted upstairs.
Can we pick this up later? Of course.
(DOOR CLOSES) CADE: What's up? There's no easy way to say this.
I screwed up.
I was just looking for advice on how to get you to go back to school.
And I went and talked to my friend Gordon and You went to a cop? Yeah, I know.
Look, I'm sorry.
I didn't know he would He's calling CPS, isn't he? He's giving us 48 hours.
It's the law.
- Look, I'm really sorry.
- Yeah.
You said that.
(SIGHS) Look, you got every right to be mad.
But I'm-a do everything I can to make sure that you land with a good family.
No, I'm not going back to foster care.
Not ever.
Must've been a really good reason why you ran the last time, huh? (EXHALES) After my mom left, my friend told our teacher.
She called the cops, who put me in the system.
That's why you didn't want to go back to school.
It's not that I didn't want to.
It's why I can't.
My foster dad, he was mean.
All right? And when he got drunk, he If I didn't run, he would've killed me.
I'll take my chances out on the street.
But I won't go back in the system.
(EXHALES) HIGGINS: So, it looks like Martin has an alibi for the murder.
He was attending a Rainbow Warriors game when Dart was struck, so couldn't have been him.
He could've hired somebody.
Yeah, or he's telling the truth and he really did want to spare Lucy - any further heartbreak.
- (PHONE RINGING) Hey, Lia.
You got me and Higgins.
I think our killer might be a woman.
- MAGNUM: Why's that? - I just got a call from the ME.
Seems a woman stopped by the front desk an hour ago, asking if they had any John Does fitting Dart's description.
- Was it Lucy, Dart's wife? - LIA: Nope.
Said they were a business associate.
- Business associate? - LIA: Gets better.
When the clerk told Mystery Lady Dart's body had just been ID'd, she seemed thrown, then asked for a copy of the death certificate.
What name did she use to sign in? Molly Glass.
But it's fake.
And unfortunately, cameras are out, so that's all we've got.
How did this woman know about Dart's death before anybody in his life did? Well, if she killed him, she'd know.
Yeah, but then why risk exposing herself to ID his body at the morgue? Well, it's clear that her main objective was to obtain the death certificate.
It must be valuable to her.
Well, you only two things from the death certificate.
A bereavement fare or a payout on a life insurance policy.
Wait, so this is an insurance scheme? Maybe.
I mean, what better target than a homeless person? Somebody no one's gonna miss.
Basically invisible.
So you take out the policy on them, wait for it to mature and kill them.
Okay, well, there's only one way to be sure.
I'm gonna have to hack into the Hold on.
We're doing this one by the book, - right? - Right.
Commerce keeps records of all life insurance policies in the state.
If Dart has one, I can get a subpoena.
Force the company to identify the beneficiary.
And we have our killer.
I got to say, I'm a little surprised that Gordie reacted like that.
Yeah, but he's right, though.
A hangar's no place for a kid.
Cade won't go back into foster care.
(CHUCKLES) And I sure as hell won't let him live on the street.
I don't know what to do.
Of course.
I mean, you care about him.
And you lived your own version of what he's going through now.
- Yeah.
- You want a do-over.
For him.
Makes sense.
What if there's another option? You're already playing the role of parent in Cade's life.
Why not make it official? (CHUCKLES) There's a big difference between keeping an eye on the kid and becoming his foster dad.
I'd be responsible for his everything.
You're already doing that now.
(CHUCKLES) Nah, man.
It's different.
My whole life would change.
Buddy, your life changed the moment you stepped up for Cade.
I mean, you're already his guardian in every other way.
Fostering him will just make it legal.
Found a policy on Dart issued by Greystone Insurance Corporation.
They complied with the subpoena and sent it over.
Emailing it to you now.
Great.
In the event of Dart's death, there would be a $3 million payout.
The beneficiary is an LLC named Banyan Enterprises, Oahu.
I'm assuming that's a shell company.
Yeah, but here's the kicker.
Dart is listed as an officer.
Safe bet Dart didn't know that.
You would think a payout that big would get flagged.
Who was the underwriter? Name's Russell Newman.
MAGNUM: Okay, well, I think we got to pay Russell Newman a visit.
- Yeah.
- LIA: Let's divide and conquer.
I'll take the office.
You take his house.
- Sounds good.
- Great.
- (PHONE CHIMES) - Not many underwriters can afford a Maserati.
It's Lia.
She said Newman left 90 minutes ago.
Apparently, he was feeling sick.
Or he was spooked by the subpoena because he's in on it.
- Mr.
Newman? - Hello? MAGNUM: Well, looks like you were right.
Lia's subpoena's on the computer.
I guess he felt the walls were closing in and decided to run.
Hmm.
Magnum? I stand corrected.
Guess he chose another way out.
Newman's smartwatch gave us his precise time of death.
3:54 p.
m.
He knew he was about to get busted for insurance fraud, took his own life.
Something still doesn't feel right here.
We don't know who the mystery woman from the morgue is, but she had to be involved somehow, right? Right.
I mean, someone drove the car into Dart, and it wasn't Newman.
He was working late that night.
HIGGINS: Hey.
I searched his phone, and laptop for clues as to who his coconspirator might be.
No luck, but I did find this.
LIA: A suicide note in an email.
But it was sent at 4:02 p.
m.
That's eight minutes after he died.
Newman's suicide was staged.
So, he gets the subpoena, panics and then contacts his partner? They meet here to regroup.
The partner kills him, makes it look like a suicide.
MAGNUM: Great.
We have a theory but have no idea who the partner is.
Well, maybe the gun can give us some answers.
Any idea how long ballistics is gonna take? Couple hours.
But there might be a faster way.
A killer may wipe down a gun after using it, but a lot of them forget about the ammo inside.
Let's see if we get a hit.
Got one.
You know this person? You could say that.
All right, sweetie, this form is gonna get you an EBT card.
I just need your full name, date of birth and social.
I can fill out the rest.
Okay, so that's how you do it.
Beg your pardon? You steal homeless people's information by pretending to sign them up for government assistance programs.
HIGGINS: Then you use that information to take out life insurance policies on them without their knowledge.
You're back.
Did you find your friend? Yeah.
At the morgue.
Thanks to her.
Are you accusing me of murdering a homeless man? After everything I've done for this community? Technically, they're the ones accusing you of murdering the underwriter.
Jill Picone, you're under arrest for the murder of Russell Newman.
- I've never even heard of him.
- Yeah, that's really odd, because you two have been pulling this scam off for years.
You get the marks, he signs off on the fraudulent policies.
HIGGINS: Newman's paper trail leads to two other homeless people with life insurance policies who mysteriously died in the last 18 months.
I'm guessing you killed them, too.
I need to speak to my lawyer.
("PACIFIC" BY ROO PANES PLAYING) You have the right - to remain silent.
- (HANDCUFFS CLICKING) Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
You have the right to an attorney.
If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be Love's the Pacific Full of SHAMMY: I'm sorry for your loss.
Dart was a good guy.
He didn't deserve this.
Thank you.
(SNIFFLES) You know, it actually helps a little to know that he he still had people in his life who cared about him so much.
He, uh, he kept this ring for all these years.
Drown ourselves under our own waves It's for the peace He, uh he still cared about you, too.
- Feeling of being with you - (CRYING) And it gets confusing (CRYING) When yesterday You were in my hands We're on the shores Of a different land It's weird how you always know exactly where to find me.
I wish I could say I was a psychic, but (CHUCKLES) I just used Find My Friends.
- Anyway, I'm sorry for - No, you don't have to be sorry.
You did so much for me.
Nobody ever You were just trying to help.
Look, I don't want to get you into any trouble.
I promise I won't let that happen.
I'll figure it out.
I think I already figured it out.
What if I could get you back in the system and you wouldn't have to go to another foster home? How? I didn't start the paperwork yet 'cause I wanted to make sure you were on board.
What do you say to me becoming your foster dad? Seriously? You don't have to do this just to fix your mistake.
This ain't about me fixing any mistake.
I want to foster you because I care about you.
I know what it feels like to be left behind.
I don't want that to ever happen to you again.
Look, bottom line is I want to do this because I want to do it.
(CHUCKLES): I wouldn't if I didn't.
But the question is, do you want this? ("LET ME DANCE ON" BY RON ARTIS II & THUNDERSTORM ARTIS PLAYING) There's a forest beyond the sea And I go there when I need peace City is grand, lots of people Go there But I don't like it 'Cause all the people don't let me be And I stand up And a thousand people try to find a way to just sit down I stand and say (CHUCKLES) Oh, it's official, Juliet.
Mr.
Masters signed off.
You're no longer the owner of Robin's Nest.
- Phew.
- (ALL CHUCKLING) (PHONE CHIMES) Oh.
Hey, guys, do you want to see a picture of my kid? ALL: Yes! - (CHUCKLES) - (KUMU GASPS) RICK: What do you think? I mean, I know it's an ultrasound, but looks a lot like me, right? Minus the beard? - (ALL LAUGH) - Right? It looks like a jelly bean.
(ALL LAUGH) Come on, Kumu, - a very handsome jelly bean.
- Yes! - Very handsome.
- RICK: Thank you.
- (KUMU CHUCKLES) - RICK: Let's see.
Jelly bean? - Hey.
Lia's here.
- Really? I-I'm not getting that.
I'm not getting jelly bean.
I'm getting, uh I'm getting a stud.
That's what I'm seeing.
From the way Ready for a drink? Mm, nah.
Can't stay long.
Paperwork.
I just wanted to let you guys know that Jill copped to killing Newman.
And Dart.
Thank you, guys, for helping me crack the case.
Well, we're really glad we could help.
Always dreaming of Uh, I'll go tell Shammy.
Let me run You want to talk outside? Yeah.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER) So, about our talk earlier I think I've got some soul-searching to do.
See if my inability to trust is about my past or if it's about Us? Yeah.
(EXHALES) Maybe it's for the best.
I mean, ever since this thing happened with your dad, you and I, we just feel different.
And I don't think it's just me.
It's not.
But I really wanted this to work.
Yeah, me, too.
Sometimes it's just not in the cards.
It's not goodbye.
I mean, I'm gonna run into you at HPD, right? We know that.
If you're asking, yes, I will still do the occasional favor for you.
Okay, good.
That's exactly what I was asking.
Come here.
See you around, Thomas.
See you around.
(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING) - Hey.
- Hey.
Just saw Lia leave.
Is everything okay? We decided to take a break for a bit.
Oh.
I'm really sorry.
Nah, don't worry about it.
Well, uh To being single.
To being single.
(CHUCKLES)
- Oh, yeah.
- Yeah, boy! (WATCH CHIMES) Oh, oh, guess what.
- You having twins? - Ah.
- Very funny, my friend.
- (CHUCKLES) Very funny.
Nope.
Suzy is getting her ultrasound today, which means I'm gonna see the first pic of my kid.
Oh, nice.
What's the deal with you and Suzy, anyway? Uh, not really sure.
For now, she's gonna stay in San Diego, finish out her residency.
Whatever you two decide, that's gonna be one lucky baby.
You're gonna make great parents.
And obviously, you know, 'ohana's got your back; whatever you guys need.
All right, why don't you start saving for the college fund now, because by the time the kid turns 18, it's gonna cost a fortune.
You guys want to go to Sweet E's, get a bite? Nah, I gotta split.
Gonna have the talk with Cade today.
The talk? Isn't he 16? I think that ship sailed.
(SCOFFS) Not that talk.
The one about school.
I want to get him reenrolled so he can get his life back on track.
Well, I guess when I need some dad advice I'll come to you from now on.
You know what, I'm up for food.
All right, let's go.
Let's go.
Munchie waffles on me.
You need to sign here, and initial here, here and here.
Hey.
What's going on? Well, I am finally returning Robin's Nest to Robin.
After she signs all these.
Doesn't your visa hinge on you owning this place? Well, it did, but MI6 pulled some strings with the State Department.
They secured me a new visa and a fast track to citizenship as a thank you.
That's really great, Higgy, but, uh, I mean, honestly, what about me? If I wasn't there, Cavendish would have got away with the data and surely caused the unfortunate demise of queen and country.
Well, sadly, I think you're just gonna have to be satisfied with me no longer being your boss.
(PHONE CHIMES) Oh, it's Shammy.
He says he needs our help with something.
Sorry to drop in on you like this.
- Oh, no need to apologize.
- Oh, thanks.
So what's going on, Sham? Well, I don't know, exactly.
I've got this homeless buddy.
He goes by Dart.
He's been coming to my vet support group for, I don't know, about the past year or so.
Dart had a big job interview coming up last Tuesday.
And he was so excited, and promised to keep me posted on how it went, but then he didn't show up for this week's meeting.
And he never misses.
So I'm starting to worry.
What do you think might have happened? He had a lot riding on that job.
Maybe the interview didn't go well, and he spiraled.
I want to make sure he's okay, but I've got no idea where to even start looking for him.
I'm sure we can help.
Do you have a photo of Dart? Yeah, um this is from a couple weeks back.
That's him next to me.
HIGGINS: And is there anything else you can tell us about him? Any small detail that might help? (SIGHS) He lives in a homeless encampment.
Don't know which one.
Well, I mean, maybe he chose one near to the V.
A.
That would narrow it down some.
Well, actually, I wouldn't go down that road just yet.
- He's holding a drink from Mahalo Subs.
- Yeah.
Maybe the truck was parked near his encampment.
Okay, but that truck's in a different spot every day.
Which is why they always post their location to social media.
What? Have you not had their meatloaf bacon melt? It's delicious.
(CHUCKLES) All right.
Uh, what day did you take that photo? Um, the 12th.
Okay.
Mahalo Subs.
On the 12th, they were in Chinatown.
Well, yeah, I guess we start there.
Yeah.
We'll keep you updated if we find something.
I really appreciate this.
Hopefully he's okay, I just I know what it's like to be in a dark place.
I'm guessing you do, too.
Yeah, yeah, we've all been there.
Don't worry, Sham, we're gonna find him.
(MUSIC PLAYING SOFTLY) Hey.
Yo.
I thought you were going to Island Hoppers today.
Yeah.
Um, I am.
But there was something I wanted to talk to you about.
I was just thinking, now that you're more settled, maybe it's time for you to go back to school.
We're too late.
It's January.
A new semester already started.
I don't think that'll be a problem.
It'd be weird, though.
Plus, now that I'm 16, I don't have to go back.
I'd rather just get my GED and keep working full time.
Well, that's one option, for sure.
But you know, high school is about a lot more than just the diploma.
The whole experience has value.
I mean, friends.
Extracurricular activities.
Girls.
I've got friends.
And I meet more girls working here than I did in school.
As far as activities, I'm not really a chess club kind of guy.
Yeah, I-I hear you.
But you know, high school is just the beginning.
I mean, you could do anything with your life.
Especially with your hustle.
Man, education's gonna open up doors Okay, okay, look.
I'm not going back.
Just drop it, okay? It was a good talk.
Yeah.
You all right? Yeah, I'm fine.
Is it Lia? Just said I'm fine.
You did, but you were lying.
So, is she still on leave, then? No, she's been back for a few days now.
Well, that's good.
I'm glad that whole nasty ransomware stuff is behind her.
Not so sure about that.
Gordie said since she's been back, and everyone knows she's the daughter of a crime boss, she's not been too popular at the precinct.
It can't be easy.
How's she handling it? Not sure, exactly.
I haven't seen her.
She's been pretty busy catching up, trying to regain her co-workers' trust back.
That kind of thing.
What about your trust? I don't know.
I understand why she'd want to keep it a secret, but to keep that secret from me, what does that say about the relationship? Have you talked to Lia about it? No, no, I think before I have that conversation, I need to figure out exactly how I feel about it.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER) (SIGHS) This is gonna be like finding a needle in a haystack.
Maybe they can direct us.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Hi.
I'm Tom, this is Juliet.
We're private investigators.
I'm Maggie, that's Jill.
Don't get many P.
I.
s around here.
Is there something we can help you with? HIGGINS: We're looking for a man named Dart.
We think he might live here.
Do you happen to know him? Yeah, we know him.
Not well, but he seems like a nice guy.
Haven't seen him today, but his tent is right over there.
It's the tall one with the blue top.
American flag on the front.
Great.
Thank you.
Thanks for the help.
Dart? You in there? Anybody inside? Excuse me, are you Dart? No.
I'm Cam.
Dartster's been gone.
I'm just watching his stuff.
You mind if we talk to you for a second? All right.
HIGGINS: Hey.
Uh, did Dart tell you when he was gonna be back? Why? Are y'all with the guy with the Jag? Who's that? MAGNUM: Look, we don't mean Dart any harm.
We're just concerned about him, that's all.
Okay.
I mean, Dart, he keeps to himself usually.
But last week, this guy in a golden Jaguar, he-he cornered him, tried to get him in his car.
Got arguing.
It got heated.
Suddenly Dart, he-he shoved the guy.
I've never seen him act like that.
You know, he just, like, lost it.
Then what happened? You know, a couple more words were said, and the guy took off.
Did Dart say who this man was? No.
He was pretty shooken up, though.
And a couple days later, Dart, he disappeared.
And I haven't seen him back since.
Well, thanks.
Okay.
It really begs the question, did Dart disappear on his own? Or did somebody make him disappear? Anything useful? Uh, there's a lot of stuff to sift through in here.
Pretty sad.
His whole life is in here.
Yeah.
Wedding band? Yeah, it's pretty heavy.
I think it's it's platinum.
It's got to be worth a couple thousand dollars.
It must mean something to him if he didn't pawn it.
It's got the maker's mark on the inside.
Might help track down the jeweler.
Yeah, but what are the odds they'd remember who they sold it to? Well, it does have an engraving on the inside, too.
HIGGINS: "Double Stuff.
" Inside joke? I don't know.
Whatever it means, I think it's getting us that much closer to finding a name.
You know, you didn't have to buy me lunch.
It's the least I can do.
You're my resident expert here.
- Yeah.
- (CHUCKLES) I thought you might know a way I can get through to Cade on this one.
Okay, how about this? Okay.
Ask him to just try school - for two weeks, that's all.
- Mm-hmm.
All right? Easier to convince a teenager if there's an end point.
He won't want to leave after that, but if he does, you gotta be okay with it, and so do the foster parents, of course.
What? See, the thing is, Cade didn't want to go back in the system, so Where's the boy living? I've been looking for an apartment, but I haven't found the right one yet.
So I just converted the office at Island Hoppers.
I-It's just temporary.
Cade's been sleeping in your hangar? Child Protective Services would have a field day with that.
Oh, come on.
He's comfortable and safe.
And I'm right outside in my trailer, so he's not really alone.
Still, it's no way for a kid to live.
Look, I understand.
I get it.
It's just temporary.
As soon as I find an apartment No, TC, you don't get it.
I'm in a tight spot now.
I gotta tell CPS.
Come on.
I'm confiding in you as a friend, not a cop.
I can't just look away.
Cade is a minor.
I am a mandatory reporter.
Look, I'm sorry, TC.
You have 48 hours to get Cade back into the foster system.
- Or what? - Or I'll have to do it.
(SCOFFS) So I just got off the phone with the jeweler, and the "Double Stuff" engraving did jog his memory.
It was for a wedding set he made 21 years ago for a couple named Karl and Lucy Dartan.
Hence "Dart.
" Brilliant.
Okay.
Well, let's see what we can find on Lucy Dartan.
Here we go.
Seems she's still married to Dart.
She lives in the house that they bought together, and his name is still on the deed.
So this guy's living on the street, but still owns the house.
Maybe Lucy could tell us why.
The man who fought with Dart drove a gold Jag.
Can't be a coincidence.
Hmm-mm.
(KNOCKS ON DOOR) Hi.
Can I help you? Yeah.
Sorry to bother you, but we're here about Karl.
Come in, please.
Dart.
That's his Army nickname.
He enlisted, uh, right after 9/11.
He loved the Army.
He really did.
He reupped a few times, but on his last tour, something something bad happened.
He came home in 2015, but he just He wasn't the same.
I'm guessing he had trouble reacclimating to civilian life.
Yeah.
You don't have to get into it if you don't want to, honey; it's too much.
Yeah, we're really sorry to ask you to dredge up painful memories.
Really, it's-it's okay.
You know, I-I want to help.
Uh, you're right.
He-he did have trouble.
He wasn't sleeping because of the nightmares, and, uh, he was just so angry.
He would lash out all the time.
He would just snap over the smallest stuff.
Were you ever able to get him any help? I tried.
The V.
A.
diagnosed him with PTSD.
He went to therapy, he did EMDR.
They put him on meds.
Nothing worked.
You know, he He hated what it was doing to me.
Seeing me walk on eggshells, afraid to set him off.
He knew I was not gonna give up on him.
But he felt that he was, uh ruining my life.
So, one day, he just He-he disappeared.
I'm so sorry.
You know, I searched for him for years.
And, eventually, I just (SNIFFLES) You know, I just had to force myself to move forward.
But for over six years I lived with that guilt of not knowing what happened to him until a few weeks ago.
What happened a few weeks ago? My car was in the shop, so I Ubered to work, and, uh, the driver took another route and we passed one of those homeless encampments.
And, uh that's when I saw him.
God, it was like seeing a ghost.
And I-I got out and I approached him, but he he didn't want anything to do with me.
And was it a similar sort of thing for you, Martin? What-what are you talking about? That is your Jag in the driveway? You went to see Dart, too.
(SIGHS HEAVILY) Lucy was heartbroken after she saw him.
I was, too.
He and I were friends first, so I went to see him.
Why didn't you tell me? Because you were so upset.
I-I didn't want to make it worse if it didn't go well.
Well, apparently it didn't go well, 'cause we did hear about the shoving match.
No.
Okay, no.
It-it wasn't like that.
I begged him to let us help, okay, and he refused.
But then he he got agitated.
How did you leave things? Uh (SIGHS) we made a deal.
I agreed that we'd never bother him again if he agreed to God accept a prepaid debit card.
I am so sorry for not telling you.
We're gonna need that card number.
I'm running Dart's debit card number now.
Oh, okay, I got it.
There are several charges, including one from nine minutes ago at Rainbow Drive-In.
Hi.
- I don't see Dart anywhere.
- Mm.
You said the charge was for $24.
95, right? Yeah.
Why? I think that guy's got his card.
He's got the Mahi Mahi Plate, the Loco Moco Bowl, chili fries and a drink.
Adds up to $24.
35.
Wow.
Hello.
Uh, sure, you can sit at my table.
We're private investigators.
We're working on a missing persons case.
What's that got to do with me? Well, the debit card which you paid for this meal with belongs to a man named Karl Dartan.
He's currently missing.
How'd you end up with his card? Okay, I I took it, but it's not like he was gonna use it.
Why's that? 'Cause he's dead.
So Dart's death was an accident? No, I said hit-and-run.
That was no accident.
What makes you so sure? The car was idling.
When that homeless guy walked by, it followed him.
He noticed, tried to get out of the way, but they swerved towards him and floored it.
Poor bastard never stood a chance.
- When was this, exactly? - Tuesday night.
What kind of car was it? Silver sedan.
Older model.
- Did you see the driver? - Too dark.
I checked the homeless guy, found the debit card.
He was dead, so I called the cops.
Gave 'em a location, described the car, but they asked my name, so I-I hung up.
Why? I might have an outstanding warrant or two.
Look, I'm really sorry.
Here.
Y-You can have it back.
You know what, go ahead and keep it.
Serious? Thanks for telling us what you saw.
Enjoy your lunch.
What kind of person would run over a homeless guy? And why is there no record of Dart's death in the system? Probably haven't ID'd his body yet.
(EXHALES) Yeah, it's him.
(SIGHS) (LOCKER SHELF ROLLS) (LOCKER CLOSES) Sorry for your loss.
Take your time.
- I'll be in the office.
- HIGGINS: Thank you.
Dart survived combat just to come home and get run down? That's (EXHALES) He was so excited about that interview.
He-he really felt like things were about to turn around for him.
Look, we know it was a hit-and-run, so there's no doubt the cops are gonna be investigating this.
And now that we've ID'd Dart and we know that it was deliberate, HPD has more information.
I'm not holding my breath.
Hit-and-runs are tough to crack.
And when the victim's homeless, I'm not sure how motivated they are.
Well, that's why we're gonna stay on this case until we figure out who Dart's killer is.
- Yeah.
- Thanks, guys.
Really, I appreciate it.
- MAGNUM: Of course.
- Of course.
Excuse me, just one question before we leave.
Did Dart have any possessions on him? Sure.
I handed it all over to the detective assigned to the case.
Who is that? You're saying this was deliberate? According to the eyewitness, yes.
Lia, will we be able to take a look at Dart's personal effects? Yeah.
Thanks.
(PLASTIC CRINKLING) What's this? MAGNUM: Address and a phone number.
That was in his pocket.
I tried the number, - but it's disconnected.
- (CAMERA CLICKS) What about the address? It's around the corner from where he was killed.
Commercial building with 60% vacancy.
Unis canvassed with a postmortem photo of Dart, but nobody recognized him.
And any idea why he would've had this address in his pocket? Well, Shammy did say that Dart had a job interview last Tuesday.
Same day he was killed.
Is it possible that somebody lured Dart to this location with the promise of employment only to mow him down? (SIGHS) Who would go through such an elaborate scheme? Well, I mean, the most obvious suspect is Martin Hadley, Lucy Dartan's boyfriend.
Maybe he felt like Dart resurfacing was some kind of threat to him and Lucy's relationship.
I'll look into Martin Hadley.
See where he was when Dart was killed.
Well, I mean, I could do that.
We would like to work with you on this, if that's all right.
Look, my rep has already taken a hit, and if it looks like I have to go outside HPD to do my job Nobody has to know.
Well, from what you said, Dart served his country with honor.
We owe him justice.
Screw how it looks.
(CHUCKLES SOFTLY) Uh, I'll head back to the car and start the background on Martin Hadley.
- I-I'll see you there.
- Yeah.
Um Uh, we should You want to talk? Yeah.
(CHUCKLES) Really? - (CHUCKLES) - Interrogation room, huh? It's the only private room.
(CHUCKLES) Hope we're not being recorded.
So What's going on with us? I don't know.
(SIGHS) I mean, I'm just a little messed up right now.
I worked so damn hard to get where I am, and now it feels like I'm just starting from square one.
No, no.
The officers, the detectives here, they know what kind of cop you are.
It doesn't matter.
I'm not the cop they know anymore.
I am Jonny Kim's daughter.
I think it's less about who your father is and more about the fact that you lied to everybody.
Including me.
I did.
I was scared.
I didn't trust that the people around me would see me for me, and now I'll never know if they would've.
I'm sorry, Thomas.
Apology accepted.
(CHUCKLES SOFTLY) So, where do we go from here? (PHONE CHIMES) Damn.
Uh, I'm wanted upstairs.
Can we pick this up later? Of course.
(DOOR CLOSES) CADE: What's up? There's no easy way to say this.
I screwed up.
I was just looking for advice on how to get you to go back to school.
And I went and talked to my friend Gordon and You went to a cop? Yeah, I know.
Look, I'm sorry.
I didn't know he would He's calling CPS, isn't he? He's giving us 48 hours.
It's the law.
- Look, I'm really sorry.
- Yeah.
You said that.
(SIGHS) Look, you got every right to be mad.
But I'm-a do everything I can to make sure that you land with a good family.
No, I'm not going back to foster care.
Not ever.
Must've been a really good reason why you ran the last time, huh? (EXHALES) After my mom left, my friend told our teacher.
She called the cops, who put me in the system.
That's why you didn't want to go back to school.
It's not that I didn't want to.
It's why I can't.
My foster dad, he was mean.
All right? And when he got drunk, he If I didn't run, he would've killed me.
I'll take my chances out on the street.
But I won't go back in the system.
(EXHALES) HIGGINS: So, it looks like Martin has an alibi for the murder.
He was attending a Rainbow Warriors game when Dart was struck, so couldn't have been him.
He could've hired somebody.
Yeah, or he's telling the truth and he really did want to spare Lucy - any further heartbreak.
- (PHONE RINGING) Hey, Lia.
You got me and Higgins.
I think our killer might be a woman.
- MAGNUM: Why's that? - I just got a call from the ME.
Seems a woman stopped by the front desk an hour ago, asking if they had any John Does fitting Dart's description.
- Was it Lucy, Dart's wife? - LIA: Nope.
Said they were a business associate.
- Business associate? - LIA: Gets better.
When the clerk told Mystery Lady Dart's body had just been ID'd, she seemed thrown, then asked for a copy of the death certificate.
What name did she use to sign in? Molly Glass.
But it's fake.
And unfortunately, cameras are out, so that's all we've got.
How did this woman know about Dart's death before anybody in his life did? Well, if she killed him, she'd know.
Yeah, but then why risk exposing herself to ID his body at the morgue? Well, it's clear that her main objective was to obtain the death certificate.
It must be valuable to her.
Well, you only two things from the death certificate.
A bereavement fare or a payout on a life insurance policy.
Wait, so this is an insurance scheme? Maybe.
I mean, what better target than a homeless person? Somebody no one's gonna miss.
Basically invisible.
So you take out the policy on them, wait for it to mature and kill them.
Okay, well, there's only one way to be sure.
I'm gonna have to hack into the Hold on.
We're doing this one by the book, - right? - Right.
Commerce keeps records of all life insurance policies in the state.
If Dart has one, I can get a subpoena.
Force the company to identify the beneficiary.
And we have our killer.
I got to say, I'm a little surprised that Gordie reacted like that.
Yeah, but he's right, though.
A hangar's no place for a kid.
Cade won't go back into foster care.
(CHUCKLES) And I sure as hell won't let him live on the street.
I don't know what to do.
Of course.
I mean, you care about him.
And you lived your own version of what he's going through now.
- Yeah.
- You want a do-over.
For him.
Makes sense.
What if there's another option? You're already playing the role of parent in Cade's life.
Why not make it official? (CHUCKLES) There's a big difference between keeping an eye on the kid and becoming his foster dad.
I'd be responsible for his everything.
You're already doing that now.
(CHUCKLES) Nah, man.
It's different.
My whole life would change.
Buddy, your life changed the moment you stepped up for Cade.
I mean, you're already his guardian in every other way.
Fostering him will just make it legal.
Found a policy on Dart issued by Greystone Insurance Corporation.
They complied with the subpoena and sent it over.
Emailing it to you now.
Great.
In the event of Dart's death, there would be a $3 million payout.
The beneficiary is an LLC named Banyan Enterprises, Oahu.
I'm assuming that's a shell company.
Yeah, but here's the kicker.
Dart is listed as an officer.
Safe bet Dart didn't know that.
You would think a payout that big would get flagged.
Who was the underwriter? Name's Russell Newman.
MAGNUM: Okay, well, I think we got to pay Russell Newman a visit.
- Yeah.
- LIA: Let's divide and conquer.
I'll take the office.
You take his house.
- Sounds good.
- Great.
- (PHONE CHIMES) - Not many underwriters can afford a Maserati.
It's Lia.
She said Newman left 90 minutes ago.
Apparently, he was feeling sick.
Or he was spooked by the subpoena because he's in on it.
- Mr.
Newman? - Hello? MAGNUM: Well, looks like you were right.
Lia's subpoena's on the computer.
I guess he felt the walls were closing in and decided to run.
Hmm.
Magnum? I stand corrected.
Guess he chose another way out.
Newman's smartwatch gave us his precise time of death.
3:54 p.
m.
He knew he was about to get busted for insurance fraud, took his own life.
Something still doesn't feel right here.
We don't know who the mystery woman from the morgue is, but she had to be involved somehow, right? Right.
I mean, someone drove the car into Dart, and it wasn't Newman.
He was working late that night.
HIGGINS: Hey.
I searched his phone, and laptop for clues as to who his coconspirator might be.
No luck, but I did find this.
LIA: A suicide note in an email.
But it was sent at 4:02 p.
m.
That's eight minutes after he died.
Newman's suicide was staged.
So, he gets the subpoena, panics and then contacts his partner? They meet here to regroup.
The partner kills him, makes it look like a suicide.
MAGNUM: Great.
We have a theory but have no idea who the partner is.
Well, maybe the gun can give us some answers.
Any idea how long ballistics is gonna take? Couple hours.

Beg your pardon? You steal homeless people's information by pretending to sign them up for government assistance programs.
HIGGINS: Then you use that information to take out life insurance policies on them without their knowledge.
You're back.
Did you find your friend? Yeah.
At the morgue.
Thanks to her.
Are you accusing me of murdering a homeless man? After everything I've done for this community? Technically, they're the ones accusing you of murdering the underwriter.
Jill Picone, you're under arrest for the murder of Russell Newman.
- I've never even heard of him.
- Yeah, that's really odd, because you two have been pulling this scam off for years.
You get the marks, he signs off on the fraudulent policies.
HIGGINS: Newman's paper trail leads to two other homeless people with life insurance policies who mysteriously died in the last 18 months.
I'm guessing you killed them, too.
I need to speak to my lawyer.
