Hudson and Rex (2019) s05e04 Episode Script

1
Yeah, okay.
No, no, no, hold on. I'm
heading into the shop.
Okay.
There you are.
- You don't have to come here!
- You're sure?
Me see you run round like a
chicken with its head cut off.
Me think me should have come up
- there to Newfoundland after all.
- No, no.
I know you no like the cold!
But it would have
been a good opportunity
for me to learn your
end of the business.
You do great for the
business in Jamaica.
Next time, I come there, okay?
Ah, me like to hear you say
there going to be a next time.
Serious now. You've been
working nonstop for what?
Four years now? You deserve the break.
The order is ready for pickup.
This shipment should
clear Mo'Bay tomorrow.
- Check.
- Two of the three accountants have confirmed.
- I'll send you the résumés and Skype links.
- Check, check.
Oh, Lord.
Oh, I sorry, Toni.
Nah, nah, I joke. It's not forever.
Things are not going to fall apart!
And you need to get your butt in gear!
Okay, I go. I go.
You nah need that at your
bougie Costa Rican retreat.
Okay, I'll leave it Inna me car!
Now woman, you nah
want miss your flight.
Okay, just one more quick stop.
What can be that important, Kadi?
Just a loose end.
And then I promise, I'll be off
the grid for two glorious weeks.
Safe travels my sister.
- Text when you land.
- I love you, girl.
Now, bring on those sunrise
meditations and sunset surfing!
According to the flight's manifest,
the shipment containing this
crate left St. John's International
two days ago at 7:30 A.M.
was unloaded at Sangster International
in Montego Bay six hours later.
Jamaican customs officials
are certain that this crate
was not tampered with on their end.
Any chance the person that
this belongs to is still alive?
I'd say not.
The hand appears to have
been severed post mortem
due to the clean, sharp edges
with no soft tissue hemorrhaging.
- Karma?
- There's no sign of inflammation.
Which means that the
remains we're looking for
could still be in Newfoundland.
Based on size, fingernails, and this,
we're looking for a female victim.
Poor creature.
It was shipped from Honest
to Cod on Water Street.
Honest to Cod? I know that place.
It's a salt fish company
down at the harbour.
It's run by a pair of sisters.
Kadi Barrett who works here
and her sister Toni,
who works out of Jamaica.
Okay. Well, we'll
treat the shop as a
potential crime scene.
- Will I meet you there?
- Yeah, I'm right behind you.
- Come on, pal.
- Yeah, just keep me posted.
Okay.
This is custom.
See, the wedding and engagement rings
have been soldered together.
Looks like an heirloom.
Oh, it's a special piece.
Okay.
I'll take the prints. And then,
- this is all yours to process.
- Great.
Hey, so, according to the manager,
Kadi Barrett is on
vacation in Costa Rica.
They packed up the shipment
the day before she left.
Ten crates were picked
up the next morning.
Nothing out of the
ordinary during or since.
My team found no blood on the premises.
And Rex agrees with them.
What's going on here? Let me through!
Can you tell me what's going on?
No sign of forced entry.
- There's keyless entry on both doors.
- Mm-hmm.
Well, the victim was
likely killed elsewhere.
Whoever shipped the hand
likely had had the entry code.
Please, you have to let me pass.
This is my place.
You don't understand. I am the owner!
Has anyone talked to the owner
since she left on vacation?
No, Kadi Barrett is likely the victim.
I'll um
Let me speak to
whoever's in charge here.
This is my business!
It's okay Officer. We have this.
I'm Detective Hudson
and this is Dr. Truong.
And my partner, Rex.
- Are you Kadi Barrett?
- I'm her sister, Toni London.
Kadi's on vacation. I promised
her I'd take care of everything
from our Jamaican office.
You just came from Jamaica?
I came as soon as I
heard about the package.
But I'm confused. All the customs
officials told me was human remains.
I thought maybe, an industrial accident?
What's happened?
Would you mind coming down to
the station with us, Ms. London?
So you and your sister have
been running this business
for some time now?
Two years.
And growing all the time.
Our countries have a
longstanding connection.
Saltfish has been a staple
of our diet since the 1800s.
Of course.
Slave owners used to use it as a
cheap source of protein
to feed their slaves.
And when you all were under prohibition,
my ancestors would trade rum for cod.
Mmmm. Old school smuggling.
Those old-timers were creative.
140-proof would sit in barrels
until the wood absorbed the alcohol.
And they'd ship the
empty barrels up North,
fill them with hot water, and
Couple of weeks later,
they'd have some potent,
- what do you call it?
- Swish.
That's right.
Ms. London.
When was the last time
you spoke with your sister?
Mmmm. A few days ago.
Before she left for Costa Rica.
It's not too strange we can't reach her.
You know, she went one of these
digital detox retreats.
Hand over your phone when you arrive.
I promised her I would
take care of everything.
I'm supposed to be interviewing
for a new accountant.
Ready to go when she gets back.
Our team spoke with the airline.
Kadi didn't get on her
flight to Costa Rica.
You also haven't asked us what we found.
Do I want to know?
Ms. London, we found a woman's
hand inside the Honest to Cod crate.
And this woman is dead?
We have reason to believe so, yes.
You think it's Kadi?
Ms. London, do you recognize this ring?
It was my mother's.
Kadi wears it.
How did this happen?
And where is the rest of her?
Ms. London,
we intend to find out the
answers to your questions.
Yeah.
That's not an easy notification
- especially with so few details.
- Yeah.
I want to find her sister for her.
- Really?
- Okay. So we can establish
a window for the time of death.
Toni was talking to
her sister on Facetime
Tuesday at 6:00 P.M.
The shipment to Jamaica left the shop
6:00 A.M. Wednesday morning.
Okay, so we can presume she was killed
within that 12-hour window.
Jesse, let's see if we
can get eyes on Kadi's car.
Toni said that she was heading
to the airport after their call.
On it.
- You mind if I ?
- Yeah.
Yeah. This was definitely
somebody she knew.
Someone with access to the shop.
Yeah, and a reason to do it.
Look at how it's carefully
separated from the fish below.
The salt's packed tightly around it.
Whoever did this, they didn't
want it to shift during transport.
They wanted the person
opening it to find it just so.
Exactly. Like a message.
Yeah, like a horse head in a bed.
Toni was supposed to
pick up the shipment.
Wait.
If someone wanted to send her a message
and they find out that she's here
She might be in danger.
You know, my daughter gave me
some of your saltfish as a gift.
I have to say It's some of
the best I've had on this island.
And that's saying something.
Kadi would have loved
to hear you say that.
What made her decide
to come to Newfoundland?
She won a business scholarship
to Heritage University.
One year here,
she knew she wanted to start a
Canada-Jamaica import-export company.
So, she came up with the idea
for Honest to Cod while in school?
Her business plan was so good.
She got a startup loan.
She talked me into
running things back home.
Come in.
Did you find anything, Charlie?
Um, yes. Uh Ms. London,
can you think of anybody
who might hold a grudge against
both your sister and yourself?
- Me?
- Well, the crate was addressed to you
and if it wasn't for
the dog at customs
I would have opened it myself.
Uh-huh.
Evan Barrett.
Kadi's ex.
- Barrett.
- Her husband?
Kadi was divorcing him.
And he thought I talked her into it.
Not that she needed convincing.
His drinking was more
important to him than his wife.
Okay. We'll have a word with him.
In the meantime, in the
interests of your safety,
we'd like you to stay here until
we have Mr. Barrett in custody.
You think that is necessary?
We can't be too safe.
Come on, pal.
Evan Barrett.
Detective Hudson.
St. John's Police Department.
This is my partner, Rex.
- How can I help you?
- Well,
we have a report of a missing
vehicle belonging to your wife, Kadi.
I was wondering if you
might be able to help us out?
Kadi's car? No, I've not seen it.
When was the last time you saw Kadi?
We're not together anymore.
Did I say something to upset you?
Look, I don't know about her car
and I've got nothing else to say to you.
Hey.
You think you can meet
me down at the docks?
And bring your kit?
Okay.
What's going on?
My partner just found
blood in your truck.
We've the matched DNA from the hand
as a sibling of Toni London's.
So I can confirm that
it belongs to Kadi.
And the blood Rex found in Evan's truck
is also a match to Kadi.
Any blood anywhere else in the vehicle?
No, and not on his boat either.
Well, he had a few incidents of
drunk and disorderly on his record.
Seems like a guy with a temper.
Well, you said it earlier,
it's possible that he
did it somewhere else
and only moved the hand in his truck.
Actually, that might account
for the limited amount of blood.
Her ex.
He'd have the key code.
A supplier for Honest to Cod,
he'd know the shipping routine.
Let's see what he has
to say for himself, huh?
What the hell is going on?
What does blood in my truck have
to do with Kadi's stolen car?
I didn't steal her damn car.
We didn't even argue
over it in the divorce.
What did you argue over?
I didn't carry anything out of our house
that I didn't bring into it, okay?
But you didn't want the divorce.
Who wants to get divorced? Would you?
No.
And I think it would make me mad.
Mad at Kadi. Mad at
her sister too maybe.
- Her sister?
- Yeah.
Didn't she encourage
Kadi to kick you out?
What has Toni got to
do with any of this?
You were mad about the divorce.
- What did you do about it?
- Nothing.
How am I going to blame Kadi?
She gave me plenty of chances.
It's my own fault I couldn't
get my act together.
How did Kadi's blood get in your truck?
What is Kadi telling you?
It's from months ago.
We went on a hike. She
fell and she cut herself.
I carried her back to the truck.
What's this about?
Kadi's car is missing and
we haven't been able to reach her.
Well, she's on that
retreat in Costa Rica.
We have reason to believe
that's not the case.
What reason?
Has your ex-wife been
having problems with anyone?
Anyone who might want to harm her?
Detective, please. Just
tell me what's happened to her.
He said he thought
she was on her vacation
- and I believe him.
- Okay, where does that leave us?
Well, Evan said that Kadi had
been receiving threatening calls
from an unknown number. Racial slurs.
Warnings to leave town.
Scared her enough that she let
him sleep on her couch one night.
He have any idea what it was about?
No, neither of them knew.
She wasn't dating anybody new.
No arguments with anyone.
There had been a couple of
incidents of vandalism at the shop.
- Guys?
- Yeah.
Here.
I've got something right here.
Last ping from Kadi's
cell was at the airport.
And take a look at this.
In the selfpark lot. That's Kadi's car.
- But that's not Kadi.
- Or Evan.
Good job, Jesse.
Kadi's body may be in her car. Rex!
Come on, pal.
Mr. Barrett. We appreciate
your cooperation.
And you'll call me when
you hear anything new?
Toni's here?
- Look, I don't think this is a good time
- Toni.
Toni. Look .
I don't even know what to say.
- You're releasing him?
- I had nothing to do with this.
You've got to believe me.
I don't know what to believe, Evan.
Look, Mr. Barrett is not
a suspect at this time.
At this time? I told
you how he treated her.
No no, Kadi and I, we were
working through things.
To be civil, you know?
Maybe one day, even friends.
I'm your main fish supplier.
Would she have kept me on
if things were that bad?
She renewed your contract?
She didn't tell me that.
She thought that you would judge her.
Think that she was a pushover.
I only wanted what was best for her.
I know.
I know.
But I would never lay a
hand on her, much less
I'm sorry for your loss, Toni.
Mr. Barrett gave us some
really good information.
Your sister was receiving threats.
She never told me about any threats.
Nothing in Kadi's car
except for her luggage
but Rex did find this.
Okay, I'm just on the line
with Kadi's service provider
with the dates and times of the calls,
we should be able to
track the blocked ID.
So you were saying that the phone calls
- started about a month ago.
- Yeah, started once in a while
but then she's been getting
them a few times a week.
Hey, hey. Yeah yeah, I'm still here.
Oh, great. You're a rock
star, Lou. Thank you.
Okay, looks like the blocked ID
belonged to someone
called Archibald Parsons.
Sorry, Archie Parsons?
Why do I know that name?
He donates to the police
memorial fund every year.
What's his connection to Kadi?
Well, his family is in saltfish.
Has been for generations.
The Parsons plant employs
over a hundred people.
You think he has a
problem with Honest to Cod?
I'll call him in.
I'll sit in with you Charlie, but,
we have to tread lightly on this one.
Friends in high places and such.
Hmm!
Here you go, bud.
That's weird.
Where you going, buddy?
And what can I do for you?
Okay okay.
Ahhahah! I got you!
Uh am I not supposed
to be feeding him?
Is that ?
Is that gourmet jerky?
Am I in trouble?
Well, yeah! You're going to
spend half your pay cheque
if you keep giving him that.
Uh, I thought if I want to
make friends with the team,
- then I should start with Rex.
- Yeah, you're not wrong.
And look, it is okay to feed Rex.
Even if Rex doesn't go
for my treats anymore.
Did you follow him here?
I'm Jesse.
Karma.
Hi.
Okay, okay.
Here you go.
Call me Archie.
- I'm very happy to be of help.
- Great.
You made several phone
calls to Kadi Barrett.
What was the subject
of those phone calls?
Ms. Barrett is a colleague.
- Colleague?
- Yeah.
Or competitor?
Detective. Competitor? I mean,
a bear doesn't look at a
toy poodle as competition.
Yeah, a bear doesn't make calls
in the middle of the night.
Ms. Barrett and I talked about business.
I'm happy to mentor young entrepreneurs.
Hmm. Well,
all the phone calls were
from your phone to hers.
And her husband said that she
mentioned she was being threatened.
I can't explain what
she told her husband.
Maybe you should ask her yourself.
Well, we can't ask her ourselves
because she's been murdered.
What?
That's awful!
Where were you three nights ago?
Superintendent. You said this
was going to be a friendly chat.
This is just merely a formality, Archie.
We just need to eliminate you
from all the inquiries. That's all.
Well
three nights ago, I was at
my cottage with the wife.
Feel free to ask her.
Now, I am truly sorry about Ms. Barrett.
But anything else I have
to say on this matter,
I will say to the chief.
Gentlemen.
- Tread lightly, I said.
- Hey, Joe.
We have him dead to rights on the calls.
There's no way to know what
was said though, Charlie.
All we have is the
word of the ex-husband.
You think they were
sharing saltfish recipes?
Archie Parsons runs a
huge operation. I just
I can't see a motive here.
That man killed my sister!
What exactly did he say?
He offered his condolences
and then he said to call him
if I need help closing down our shop.
- He offered you his help?
- Hmm.
Yes. Then he shook my hand
and he said I had elegant fingers!
You see?
He was talking about
Kadi's hand. The message.
If you could see the look
in his eyes when he said it!
That was a threat!
Do you know why Archie Parsons
would have a problem with Kadi?
We just secured a big
hotel contract in Jamaica.
- Parsons used to supply the chain.
- Okay.
We'll have a look into that.
Why, you don't believe me?
No, no. That's not what we said.
It's just that a handshake's not enough.
- We need evidence. That takes time.
- No!
You know what? I done!
Mm-hmm.
Ms. London.
Listen, Joe, you may be a good guy,
but me come from a place where
rich men like Archie Parsons
can slip a cop a Cnote
and he get off, Scott free.
Charlie Hudson is not like that.
With all due respect,
you can find corruption upon any force.
All I can say is that,
if it were my sister
Charlie's the first person
I'd want on the case.
You really think he will
do all that is necessary
to bring Kadi justice?
If anyone's going to get to the
bottom of this, it is my team.
You have my word.
Now listen. You have had
a long and difficult day.
I have an officer
here who is standing by
to take you your hotel.
I'm counting on you, Superintendent.
That's why I'm here.
Now go on.
Get some rest.
Okay, thanks for your time.
The General Manager of
the Ocean Shine hotel chain
did confirm that she recently
awarded her fish contract
- to Honest To Cod.
- Did she say how Parsons took it?
Said he was professional.
Well, what do you think?
Do you think Toni was right
- and he's involved somehow?
- I don't know.
Something doesn't feel right.
I wish we had confirmation
of the harrassment in Kadi's emails.
Well, I searched every possible keyword
in your basic harasser's dictionary.
A couple of new ones too.
Nothing popped up.
Well, I did find a thread
between her and her accountant.
It starts out generic
enough but gets heated.
Toni mentioned hiring a new accountant.
Ah, here! Yeah, look!
Kadi fired this guy last week.
She asked him to return all
their books before her trip.
What's his name?
Craig Fields?
Craig ? Okay, guys. Look at this.
Location tracking from Kadi's cell.
Between Honest to Cod and the airport,
she made a 25 minute stop
at an address belonging to
- Craig Fields.
- Craig Fields.
I said it first.
Hey!
You okay?
Uh
Some of my victim's
personal items are missing.
Like the ring from the hand
and now, a watch from another body.
Oh!
Well, I mean, there's got
to be a logical explanation.
I've looked everywhere!
Has anything like this
ever happened here before?
I don't think so.
What if somebody thinks
that I stole them?
- Oh, nobody's going to think that.
- Well, I'm new here.
That's what I would think!
Yeah.
Maybe you just need
a second set of eyes.
- Yeah?
- Okay, yeah. Come on!
So, you were here alone
for the whole night?
- Three nights ago, you say?
- Mm-hmm.
Uh yeah, yeah! All alone!
Just me and my shows
and my bag of popcorn.
Hmm.
How long did you work for Kadi Barrett?
Oh, uh
Let me think now. Um
A year? A year and a half maybe?
Lovely woman. Great. We
worked great together.
And you know what?
Here's the thing.
I've balanced the books for a lot
of little businesses over the years.
And some people think it's all numbers.
But it really brightens up
the work when it's for someone
as passionate about her product as Kadi.
Great business sense too!
Look, it made my job
a heck of a lot easier.
Let me tell you.
Any idea why she fired you last week?
Uh
Where's your dog going? I'm not
picking up after him. He can't
just go out there, you know?
He's just doing his job.
Why did Kadi Barrett fire you last week?
Oh, I wouldn't say that she fired me.
It was more of a misunderstanding!
About the numbers! You know
how bad women are with numbers!
- Not in my experience.
- Right, right.
Just kidding. Not funny.
But it was a misunderstanding.
We were going to talk
about it after she got back.
Were going to ?
Is there a reason why you can't
talk to her when she gets back?
Well if she
Well, I Look, anyway,
Honest to Cod is just one contract.
I've got loads of other clients!
No hard feelings, you know?
What's your dog's name?
- Rex.
- Rex!
Rex!
What is it?
Hey.
We're going to need a forensic
team down here immediately.
Good job, partner.
And you're sure you
removed all the items?
Definitely.
Sarah even commented on Kadi's ring.
And as for the watch
Look!
See? It's gone!
Yeah, it is.
Um, I think we should
look somewhere else though.
Oh my goddess.
Ugh.
Jesse, I'm so sorry I thought
you were used to cadavers by now.
I usually deal with more of the
computer-based side of the murders.
Right, yeah.
I forget that not
everybody is weird like me.
Oh, I didn't say I wasn't weird.
- Did you draw these?
- Yeah.
- Cool! These are really good!
- Thanks!
- And thanks for your help too, by the way.
- Oh.
I really don't think we're going
to find these personal effects.
I think someone must have stolen them.
You know, I find it hard to believe
that someone working here
would steal something. But,
you know just in case,
let me see your earrings.
Where do you keep the
personal belongings?
Uh
Okay.
What are you up to?
Ye Ole classic bait and wait.
Hey, Sarah. Your team just
finished sweeping Craig's place.
Somebody wiped the floor with bleach
- but Rex's nose didn't betray him.
- Detective.
Yeah, I've got to go.
Yeah.
Kadi Barrett.
The victim's carotid artery
was severed with a sharp blade.
Possibly the same blade
that severed her hand.
She would have died very quickly.
- Within minutes.
- Leaving behind a lot of blood.
Yeah, it fits with what we
found at Craig Fields' house.
I'd like you to release Kadi's ring
now that we've discovered her remains.
I want her sister to have it.
Don't we need that for the trial?
I'm going to make an exception.
Right. Of course.
I'll bring that up to you as
soon as I've cleaned up down here.
Thank you.
I'm being framed. I swear!
Anyone could have gotten
into my yard! Put her there.
Little would I know!
But we found blood in your house, Craig.
Maybe they did it while
I was out and cleaned up!
Location tracking on Kadi's phone
said she arrived at your house at 6:15.
You said you were at
your house all night.
Right. Okay. Okay, right. Yes, yes.
She did drop off some documents
but then she left to go to the airport!
Well, this is you dropping her car
off at the airport just before 7:00.
We found Kadi with her
jacket over her face.
You know what that tells us, Craig?
It tells us that you had
remorse for what you did.
- I'm framed!
- You're caught!
Blood in your house. Photo on CCTV.
You even had the key code
to get into the shop so
you could plant the hand.
Oh God, the hand!
Yeah.
And why'd you do that, Craig?
Okay. It looks like
Boris isn't our thief.
That's a relief.
Well, I'm glad for Boris
and his honest heart.
But he was my last hope.
I've been a fill-in pathologist
all over this province.
I don't know what it is about me!
No one took me seriously.
Not until Dr. Truong.
Yeah, it must be hard to
always be the new kid, huh?
I want to work in one place.
A place where I
fit in.
I mean if it's any consolation,
I didn't fit in here for like
the first three years.
So
you know what it's like, then.
Yeah, I do.
But you know what?
I mean, I found my footing.
And you will too. Definitely.
Should we try again tomorrow?
- Sure.
- Good. Because my legs are falling asleep.
Let's see your report, okay?
Thank you very much. That's good.
You found her?
And we have a culprit in custody.
It was Archie.
It was Craig Fields. The accountant.
And we have a really
solid case against him.
You think he killed my sister
over a couple thousand dollars?
Sorry, what are you talking about?
Craig skimmed from our tax rebates.
- That's why Kadi fired him.
- Why didn't you tell us this?
But it was only a couple of thousand.
She wasn't even sure she
was going to report him.
Does that seem like a reason to kill?
- Actually, it might.
- What do you mean?
Well, if he was reported,
that means they would
have had to do an audit
on all of his clients.
And HST is both a Federal
and Provincial tax,
which means that he
would have been charged
with defrauding both governments.
Lost his accounting license
and faced certain jail time.
That sounds like a
damn good motive to me.
Craig Fields was eyeballs-deep
in stealing from Honest to Cod
and a few other clients.
I'm checking for the rest.
Craig Fields's prints are
on Kadi's coat and her car.
Her blood was in his house.
Now, her throat was
cut with the same knife
used to remove her hand.
So if we find that knife
Yeah but even without it, it
seems like an open and shut case.
Yeah. We certainly have a
lot of evidence against Craig.
I'm sensing a but.
But why send the hand?
Toni didn't rate him as a suspect.
What did he have against her?
What did he say when you asked him?
He didn't have an answer
and that's another thing about him too.
He's got a weak stomach.
You think he had an accomplice?
I think he's protecting somebody.
Jesse. Do you have a
list of Craig's clients?
Yeah, sure thing.
Well, he's going to have to name names.
And then some.
Ughh. This is not looking like
we're going to be able to
get you off here, Craig.
The only question now is,
what is the charge going to be.
And how much time?
How much do you think it will be?
First degree murder?
The jury is not going to
like the dismemberment.
I'm guessing life in prison.
I was not built for jail, Detective!
Well, there is accessory after the fact.
The judge has a little leeway with that.
They tend to use their discretion
for people who cooperate.
Accessory after the fact!
You know what happened!
You know, I did notice that
Archie Parsons is your client list.
Did you skim from his taxes, too?
Never mind jail. I would have to have
a death wish to talk about Archie.
Yeah? What was Archie's
problem with Kadi?
It was the hotel contract.
That's what set him off.
And he had you set up a meeting?
He told me that if I could convince her
to sell Honest to Cod to him,
then he would make me the CFO.
I thought that maybe
everything would work
out good for everyone.
Kadi, look there's no
reason to talk about
anybody firing anybody, okay?
- It was a mistake!
- Okay, listen, Craig.
This is months I've been
telling you about this.
I've been asking you
numerous times to stop
and it's done! We are done, Craig!
I swear.
I had no idea what he was going to do.
And it was his idea to
send the hand to Jamaica.
If I didn't, he would turn
me in for the tax fraud.
All the evidence is
at your house though.
It's his word against yours.
No one is going to believe me!
I'm not sure that's true, Craig.
You see, I want to put the right
person behind bars for Kadi's murder.
And you're going to help me.
Archie, I'm freaking out!
We've got to meet somewhere today.
No, no. Somewhere public.
The pub on Adelaide Street?
Yeah.
Yeah, okay.
- All set.
- Okay.
Okay, Craig.
There we go. Now if you
can just do me a favour
and speak into the mic.
Make sure this works.
Today's the day I'm going to die.
Today's the day I'm going to die.
Excellent, he's all yours.
Okay. Just breathe, okay?
Try and act natural. You
don't want to spook him.
You just want to get him talking.
- I forget what I'm supposed to say.
- Hey.
How about that your conscience
just got the better of you? Okay?
Hey. Craig.
Don't worry. Archie's not going to
do anything to you in a public place.
He values his image too much.
You don't know Archie.
You don't know what he's capable of.
Well, I suppose you do know that part.
Craig. You're going to be fine.
Okay? And just remember.
You've got our secret
weapon by your side.
Testing testing.
Jane. I'll take a pint.
Who's your friend?
My new guard dog.
So, what're you afraid of little Craig?
You have proven to be
a bit of a wild card.
Ah, thank you so much.
What's the emergency?
I can't sleep.
I can't eat. I can't drink. Can you?
Mmm.
So good.
- What seems to be bothering you?
- The guilt!
- It's eating me alive!
- Have you tried talking to a shrink?
What would I tell them?
That's entirely up to you.
How about I tell them
how long it took me
to clean the blood up?
Would that be a good start?
- Come here.
- What?
Come here.
Ughh!
You take me for a real fool.
I can't go to jail for this, Archie!
I told that Jamaican girl
to go back where she came from.
She thinks she can come in here
and do things better than we've
been doing for generations? No.
You saw what I did to her.
And you come here thinking
you can outsmart me?
- They made me do it!
- Yeah.
I am sorry that you've gotten
yourself into trouble, Craig.
Mmm! But
I can't help you.
- Hey, Archie.
- Huh!
Hudson.
- Mmm.
- Well, you've got nothing on me.
No. I think we have enough. You see
you forgot one.
She thinks she can come in here
and do things better than we've
been doing for generations? No.
You saw what I did to her.
This is when you turn around.
Come on.
Ughh!!
Rex.
Move!
Let's try this again, shall we?
Archie Parsons.
You're under arrest for
the murder of Kadi Barrett.
Come on.
Fun to switch it up every
now and again huh pal?
Nothing.
I was hoping the shift change
would prove more fruitful.
I don't know, Karma. I mean, I've
worked with these guys for years.
They're good people.
Okay. I'll tell Superintendent
Donovan that I lost the ring.
And I'll just hope that with his
wealth of experience and wisdom,
that he'll recognizes
my clear conscience.
Shhh. Do you hear that?
- Uh
- Shh!
Rex!
Ohh.
Oh, you don't have to apologize!
I shouldn't have left it
out where you could get it!
It's just too tempting!
You're not the first person to
make that mistake, right, buddy?
Okay!
There you go.
Take a look.
Oh my goddess!
Oh my yeah!
- Her.
- Oh my!
Rex!
You
You are sneaky Rex. That's for sure.
Cedar smudged cod. Margarita inspired?
- Mmmm.
- We should pick some up.
Yeah, I think Rex would like some too.
Whatever you'd like to try.
I insist. Take some home.
Can we chat?
Yeah.
Come. Come with me.
It's pretty nice of you to host us.
It's what we do back home.
Toast and eat to
celebrate our loved ones.
Well our traditions
aren't that different.
Fish and rum.
It's perfect.
I'm sorry I doubted you, Charlie.
My judgment was clouded.
Yeah, no need to apologize.
And as for your judgment,
it was spot on about Archie.
We have a very strong case against him.
I hope that brings you some comfort.
Come.
Let's eat while it's still warm.
So, what do we have here?
It's ackee and saltfish.
Jamaica's national dish.
Oh! And homemade pepper sauce.
Proceed with caution.
It's really good. Hot,
hot, hot, hot, hot!
Once Kadi's body is released,
I'll take her back to Jamaica.
But I'll be back.
Someone's going to have to
carry on with the business.
It's what Kadi would want, you know?
I agree.
And I for one will
be a regular customer.
Thank you all for being here
to celebrate my sister, Kadi.
To Kadi.
To Kadi.
To Kadi.
- To Kadi.
- To Kadi.
To Kadi.
Thank you.
Next time on Hudson & Rex
Your dog attacked him, you know.
- Osgood?
- Your dog jumped me for no reason.
He could have been killed.
Your dog has an agression problem.
Rex isn't reacting to Osgood,
he's reacting to you reacting to Osgood.
Internal Affairs has spoken.
I'm sorry Charlie, but
Rex is off the team.
Maybe now you can take a
crack at being a real cop.
Everyone just needs to calm down.
