Republic of Doyle (2009) s05e13 Episode Script
Welcome Back Crocker
Previously, on Republic of Doyle.
It's time that we tell him.
No.
You need to move out of my house today.
Move in with Jake.
What? I was not gonna shoot you, I was gonna shoot Becker.
I'm supposed to take the word of a murder? We had some good times.
Right up until you killed that woman in cold blood.
Someone was searching my computer for Jake Doyle.
I need to make sure that no one knows what I'm doing.
I knew he was in there, that crooked cop.
I'll be good for him.
Jake are you sure you don't mind me living with you? Of course I mind.
Jake! I'm joking.
I'm not joking.
Really? Yes Des it's be find, okay? I don't want it to be a permanent thing.
But it's fine.
This is all your fault.
Cool.
And you know, obviously, I'm not gonna stay here that long.
It's not like it'll be forever.
I mean, that would be weird.
Des.
Remember what we talked about.
I know.
You know what? I knows your not wicked for letting me stay here.
Smooth.
You've gotta tell him.
Remember the plan? No, no, no, no.
No.
Des.
Yes! He can't strangle you over the phone.
And I, um.
I need to tell you something.
What? I peed in the sink.
What? It's not the right time.
And I didn't pee in the sink.
He hung up.
I can't believe you moved him in with me.
Why didn't he just stay with you at the house? Where's the fun in that? Besides, it'll do you good.
Now, who's this mystery client we're meeting? This isn't about a woman, is it? No.
No.
Yes.
She is a woman.
But she's a client.
She hired us.
So Whatever.
We gotta go meet her.
And I suppose you gave her your usual discounted rate.
I'm your son.
Okay? I can't believe that you think that I'm not shallow.
No I don't think it.
I know it.
I'm starting to think your client missus isn't here.
This is the old Rec Centre.
Didn't I learn how to swim here? Been shut down for years.
I'm getting a bad feeling about this.
Yeah.
I think I know what you mean.
Inspector Smallwood? What's this about? What are you guys doing? How'd you know I'd be here? Buddy, what's on the go? Are you okay? I should have known you were involved.
You were his partner.
Are you high, or something? Who are you talking about, Craig? Well, he'd be referring to me.
Hi there Jake.
Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh yeah ee yay ee yay ee yay Oh yeah ee yay ee yay ee yay I'm Christina Lang.
You're a Crown Attorney here in town, right? I know who you are.
I'm looking for Inspector Craig Smallwood.
We were scheduled to have a meeting today.
He's not in at the moment.
Do you know where I can reach him? Give us a sec? I've been trying to call him for two days.
Do you have any idea where he is? No.
I knew you'd show, Jake.
Always a sucker for a damsel in distress.
Well you got me here.
Now what do you want? Well, I've been on the run for a long, long time.
And that's gonna end right here.
And you're gonna help me.
I'm not sure how you knocking a police inspector unconscious and kidnapping us is gonna help you, but-- Whatever.
What do you want? Well, we're all gonna work together-- to prove my innocence.
Sounds like fun.
Yeah? Oh, yes.
Yeah, you remember this place, don't you partner? It's here where they said I was supposed to have killed that hooker.
Lisa Younghusband.
How could I forget? All those years ago? Everyone thought I was guilty.
Maybe because you skipped town before the trial.
Well, you're awake, inspector.
You know, they made him an inspector after he framed me.
Isn't that crazy? Everyone believed you were guilty.
Well, the only problem with that conclusion, is-- it isn't substanciated by a dead body, which, as far as I remember, is kind of important to a murder investigation.
Keep talking.
But you.
You took care to make everything look like I was guilty.
Didn't you, Inspector? What are you talking about? Why don't you tell Jake and Malachy Doyle here what I am talking about-- Please, would you mind doing that for me? You're insane.
I'm at Smallwood's house.
There's no sign of him.
You know, it looks like he hasn't been here for a while.
No sign of him here either.
I'll keep looking.
I know a few places where he can be.
If you hear anything, you call me.
It could be that he's just on a bender.
Since his divorce, trust me, it happens.
No, there's something feels wrong.
I'll call you later.
Hood, wait.
Did Smallwood have a police cruiser? Yeah, he took out an unmarked car a couple of days ago.
Put a trace on it.
The GPS.
Text me the address.
Des? Des? Oh, oh.
Sorry.
Sorry.
I just, you know, me-- moving in with Jake.
I don't wanna be a burden.
To anyone-- And him.
So -- I just wanna make sure the place is clean.
He will appreciate that.
Yeah.
I think he will.
Yes.
But-- Could I ask that you vacuum later.
When I'm not trying to do paperwork.
Oh, yeah.
Duh, yeah.
I can totally do that.
Thank you.
That's awesome.
Sorry honey.
Did I upset you? No.
It's not you.
No.
I just-- If you had, like, a deep dark secret.
Like so dark that you felt like it would kill your best friend, what would you do? You're afraid to tell Jake that you and Tinny are a couple.
How do you know? Does everyone else know? Malachy told me.
Yeah, I think everybody knows.
Jake? Jake knows? That's why he wanted me to move in here.
He's gonna kill me when I'm not looking! No.
Jake doesn't know yet.
Are you sure.
Are you serious? Are you sure? Yeah.
I mean.
When he finds out he's gonna be totally annoyed and mad.
But, you know what? If you treat Tinny well, which I know you will, he's gonna be really happy for you.
Hello Darling.
How's your day going? Interesting.
Bit of an odd request.
I need you to look into some details around a murder.
Oh.
Dear God.
When did it happen? Thirteen years ago.
The victim's name was Lisa Younghusband.
Wait a minute.
Isn't that the woman that Kevin Crocker Yeah.
Dig up whatever you can.
And don't let anyone know you're doing it, if possible.
Love you.
Love you too.
Malachy-- Do I need to be worried here? No, no.
Just let me know if you find anything.
Okay.
We should be worried.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Good work fellas.
Okay, So-- to recap.
You help me or I kill him.
For real this time.
This one has an expiry date on him.
Let me go.
It's only a matter of time before my people come looking for me.
This is not the way to go about proving to people that you're not a crazy person.
Yeah.
There's my old partner.
Always had my back.
Don't give me that.
You pretty much confessed the whole thing to me at the time.
Remember? No.
Not really.
Because at the time, I had a whole lot of memory loss issues, because I had a lot of substance abuse issues.
- So if I did confess - You did.
Well maybe.
Or maybe I was just messing with you.
Solid defence.
Come on, Jake.
Look at this cop.
Look deep into his rat faced eyes.
You remember him.
The Professional Standards Bureau.
You were in the Rat Squad.
I knew I didn't like you for a reason.
And Mal, ask him about the murder weapon.
Go on.
If you guys don't help me get out of this, you're both going down with him.
Come on, Jake.
You're one of the best cops I ever worked with.
Look at this man, and tell me you trust him.
Prove my innocence.
And save a scumbag's life.
We all know what this one has to lose.
What about you two? Rehab, Walter.
He needs rehab, immediately.
And I'll lighten his sentence.
Thank you My Lord.
Now, working with you makes me regret going back into private practice.
You were a good Crown Attorney, Walter.
You still got a few good ones.
And some great ones.
Judge Richardson.
Giving another one of Walter McLean's drugged out clients a break? I believe in second chances, Ms.
Lang.
You know.
I was a Crown Attorney myself.
I'd be happy to give you a few pointers.
Or not.
Mr.
Honour.
Can we speak for a moment? If this is about your case, please have your counsel contact me.
No, no.
Nothing like that.
It's about an old case.
Back when you were a Crown Prosecutor.
We're PIs.
Investigators.
Private.
Okay.
How can I help you? It's about a murder.
From years ago.
Lisa Younghusband.
How could I forget? She was a call girl, yes? Murdered by a corrupt cop.
Yeah, see, that's the thing.
He was never convicted.
As I recall-- He skipped town before trial.
I'm not sure how I can help you.
Why are we talking about this? Well, we've been hired by someone.
If there are grounds for reopening this investigation.
And it could possibly shed new light on this case, by all means.
Call my assistant.
She'll give you access to the files.
Thank you so much.
You High-- Worship--ness.
Good luck.
Team Deadly.
Ow.
Add kidnapping to the list, Malachy.
Get me away from this lunatic.
We'll see if I can get them to go easy on you.
- Otherwise-- - Don't let him scare you, boys.
The only only one is gonna be facing Lady Justice when this is all over is this one.
'Cause you set me up.
And now you're gonna pay.
Take it easy.
Where are you taking us? We're going to his house.
I need the names of all the other rats who who were part of the frame up.
There was a tip.
I got a tip about a murder weapon.
What is wrong with you? You just knocked out our only lead.
Oh come on.
He's lying.
He'd say anything to get you two on his side.
Uh, b'ys.
What? What's that? Get out of the car.
Unless you want this to be the last thing that you ever see.
Smallwood's cruiser's out back.
Why does this place look so familiar? All I know is that there was a murder here years ago.
I remember reading about it.
A hooker.
Lisa something.
The one that Kevin Crocker killed.
Crocker? Smallwood was looking into Crocker.
That can't be a coincidence.
Something happened here.
Recently.
Kevin Crocker.
Come on.
It's time to go.
And don't even think about doing anything stupid.
Hold on, hold on.
Who are you? Don't worry about who I am, Mr.
Doyle.
Everybody okay? You're welcome.
Okay.
Come on.
Hold on a second.
Yeah, hello police.
I need to leave a message directly for Daniel Hood, or for Leslie Bennet please.
Let's go.
Okay.
The lady of the night.
Lisa Younghusband.
Right.
Was killed at the old Rec Centre.
Yes.
And, of course, - the man accused of murdering her is-- - My father.
What's going on, guys? Why are you looking into this? Honey-- We're not sure.
But-- We think Malachy and Jake are with Crocker.
Kevin Crocker is a wanted felon.
Is he back in town? Are Poppy and Jake helping him? Look, Tinny, we don't really have any info on this right now.
Malachy just asked us to look into it.
And he said it was urgent.
I'm guessing my phone being bugged had something to do with this.
Someone bugged your phone? Yeah.
I thought it had to do with Uncle Jake, but-- I guess whoever did it was looking for something on Crocker.
I've studied every inch of this case.
Honey, if we're getting into this-- there are ramifications-- if the cops know you're involved.
I know, but I never believed he did it.
Why? - He's my father.
I just-- - I think that the odds are stacked against him on this.
I mean, the day Crocker was arrested-- His tox screen showed that he was filled with drugs and alcohol.
I know.
Tinny.
He had the victim's blood all over.
I know.
All of this.
Okay? But there is one glaring issue here.
The body was never found.
How can you have a murder without a body? The Prosecution's working there was that he dumped it in the ocean and it just disappeared.
Okay, Tinny.
There's just one thing that you're skipping over here.
And it's a pretty big point, is that-- Crocker confessed the whole thing to Jake.
Malachy, what's going on? You have no idea how weird this whole thing is.
Can you run a track on a guy named Brian Mitchell? You don't think it's just a little bit odd? In the middle of all this, out of nowhere-- A hitman suddenly shows up looking for me.
So what? A guy's after you.
You're scum.
Scum attracts scum.
Law of the land.
Regardless of your attitude.
I appreciate the save.
Are we gonna let him go, or what? Nooo! Not until Smallwood here admits that he framed me for the murder.
And that he coughs up whoever it actually did it.
I mean, no murder weapon.
No body.
No case.
Until this one-- from-- the Rat Squad.
He suddenly-- shows up with the murder weapon? Hey, listen to me.
Nobody else could find it, right? I mean, they sent in teams, Squadrons, literally squadrons of guys scoured that centre.
Nothing.
And the him-- The guy who'd been investigating me for years.
He suddenly shows up with a gun? Kevin, you gotta calm down.
No, I will not calm down.
Because either somebody planted that weapon and told him where to find it.
Or he planted it himself.
I didn't plant anything.
I didn't frame you.
You did say that someone gave you a tip.
Right? Don't you find that a bit convenient? Look, I know it seems convenient.
And I know there seems to be something else going on here.
Alright finally, he's starting to make a little sense.
But for all I know, Crocker had an accomplice who helped him kill Lisa Younghusband.
Accomplice? And they say my theories are crazy.
You are crazy.
Rose tells me the mad gun man is a hired heavy.
Are you sure you never saw him before? No! Never.
What now? Now? Okay.
Now we are all gonna work together.
And we are gonna piece this thing.
Together.
Who's this? Hey buddy, wake up.
Ah! Son of a bitch.
Everything is in here.
Anyone I had spoken to.
Anyone involved in the case.
It's all here.
Who else had access to this? At this point, only me.
If you thought there was a problem, - why didn't you run this further up to chain.
- I don't know.
I'll admit.
It always felt to me that someone-- Maybe on the inside was working with Crocker.
Working with me? Like who? Jake here? Or Malachy? Or maybe no one.
Maybe just you.
Framing me.
Kevin.
Stop.
I wanna know who set me up.
And why.
And right now.
And you are the only one who can tell me.
Alright.
I started getting letters.
No return address.
About a year ago.
Signed by "Regret"? Yeah.
Proclaiming my innocence, taking guilt upon themselves.
And saying they should have come forward? How'd you know that? I got the same letters when I was in prison.
So we've no idea who sent them.
No.
But they certainly got my attention.
At first I thought they were from him.
My handwriting isn't anywhere near as nice.
Then I thought it was a plan of yours.
Getting your partner to send in evidence.
To get you out.
That's not a bad plan.
But I ran a trace.
They didn't come from the prison.
And they were connected to anyone-- he woulda called.
Or had contact with on the outside.
So? So-- The rat started digging.
Getting pieces of evidence.
It's all safe on my laptop.
Your laptop? Are the files encrypted? Yeah.
In case someone on the Force, or higher up was involved.
You wanted to be sure that no one could tamper with your investigation.
Where's the laptop now? It's in my car.
It's in a hidden compartment in my trunk.
Everything I've gathered so far.
Maybe.
Maybe, maybe it could help you.
I've been waiting for this for a long, long time.
If you're lying, I will not hesitate to end you.
Are we clear? Yeah.
Alright Jake, go with him Grab the laptop.
I'll stay with Malachy here.
You try anything, and I'll kill him.
You understand? Right.
For the record, I'm actually starting to believe you're innocent.
Jake, we need to run.
Yes, b'y.
I'm gonna leave my father alone with a crazy person.
We both know Crocker's not gonna hurt your father.
We get to my car.
We get some help.
Tell me the truth.
Did you set him up or not? Jake, we need to bring him in.
We'll work on what we have.
I need another trial.
We present the new evidence.
Keys.
Ah! Sorry, Jake.
Stop! No, Smallwood! No! You didn't deserve this Craig.
You were a good Cop.
And I owe so much to you in my career-- As a professional and as a friend.
I'm so sorry I let this happen.
I'm sorry.
Any word from Jake? No.
None of them are answering my calls.
And what about Hood? What in the hell is going on here? Get everybody in the bullpen.
We are finding whoever did this.
And we're gonna make them pay.
You gonna be okay? Yeah.
Lucky.
A lot luckier than Smallwood.
Just tell us now.
Did you arrange all this? Yeah, some sort of super revenge plot against us - and Smallwood? - You've been known to make crazier decisions, Crocker.
Did I hate him? Yes.
Did I want him to die? No.
Why? Because he's the only one who could prove my innocence.
You told us ten times you wanted to kill him.
Oh, come on.
Use your heads.
That was a bluff.
I was bluffing.
The only reason why we're not turning you in right now, is because of Tinny.
We gotta get off this road.
The cops are gonna be everywhere.
Good call.
Craig Smallwood was a father, a friend, and a great police officer.
We all, every one of us on this Force will feel his passing.
I know that.
It wasn't right.
But listen to me carefully.
We do not have time for any of that.
Not because it isn't the right thing to do.
Not because it isn't our right to grieve.
But because we will not waste a moment of our energy on anything other than finding whoever killed Craig Smallwood.
Is that understood? Go.
Get them.
And somebody find me Sergeant Hood now.
Doyle.
Come here.
Run this by Forensics.
See if you can find something to match whatever ignited Craig's car.
Please.
I don't know if this is relevant, or what.
But-- I got a good suspicion that my father is back in town.
A good suspicion? I haven't seen him.
But, yeah.
Kevin Crocker is back.
Smallwood, before he died, he said he was working on your father's case.
Sergeant.
I got a feeling this is all connect to this somehow.
Are you sure you're on the right side of this? In your head, I mean? What are you saying? We're talking about your family here.
I'm not sure you should be even near this case.
Leslie.
I know my father had nothing to do with Smallwood's death.
Let along Jake.
Is that from Dispatch? Someone sent a message-- directly to you and Hood.
Hood responded.
So, you're like-- definitely Tinny's father, right? She's nice.
She's great.
Signed, Regret.
Cryptic.
You got the same letters from the same person? And emails.
Once I got out of prison, whoever that is sent emails to that account.
Yeah, it's gonna be hard to track this, the wording of these emails is coded, I mean, I'm good, but I'm nowhere near that good.
You didn't try to meet with whoever was sending you these? No.
It could've been a trap.
Trying to lure me out of hiding.
But I came back anyway, because I was sick of running.
Now, Regret claims that he or she has irrefutable evidence that I did not kill Lisa Younghusband.
When you sent the emails, how long did it take for them to get back to you? Well, honestly, I'd send an email, I'd get a reply straight away.
What, are you thinking what I'm thinking? Email.
Bait.
We'll set up a meet right now.
Then we have our witness.
Or, if it's a fake, we'll have Smallwood's killer.
Message sent.
Let's talk now.
I debated putting a winky face there.
'Cause normally when-- I text Tinny, we do.
Hey, Rose.
The guy you pulled the cell phone from? Yeah, Brian Mitchell.
He's the hit man who almost killed us.
Yeah.
I tracked his phone to the store, uh, that it was sold at.
And uh, well, it cost me three hundred bucks.
But the clerk eventually caved.
- What is it? - Surveillance video from the past two days at the store.
Nice work.
Thank you.
I'm thinking whoever bought that phone-- likely is on that tape.
Oh, wait, wait, wait.
It's the Regret Person.
Ten minutes.
Gosling Library.
- Let's go.
- I'll start sorting through this footage.
Hood! I got it.
I think.
I went through all the vids of the security footage at the store where the phone was bought.
What's you find, honey? Well, in the past two days, buddy sold three phones.
I zoomed in on the faces of each buyer.
And only one bought a red phone.
And that is not Brian Mitchell.
That is Christina Lang.
St.
John's Crown Attorney.
And why is she buying a burner for a hit man? That's a heluva good question.
It is, isn't it? So, how do we know who we're meeting? I got a feeling they'll know you.
Lisa Younghusband.
- You're-- - Alive.
Yeah.
Kinda hard for you to be the murderer-- Of a person who's still alive? Yeah, I got that.
Thanks.
So, obviously, you've been alive all this time.
I have.
Yeah.
I have.
Would you mind terribly telling us exactly what is going on? Because that would be great.
You know, if it's not too inconvenient.
I don't know where to start.
How about you start around about the time when you and a bunch of other people decided to ruin my life.
Kevin, you know how messed up I was back then.
We both were.
I can-- At least until I got clean, I could barely remember anything.
Excuse me.
Dad, what do you got? We don't have the full story yet.
We think Christina Lang is the mastermind.
The Crown Attorney.
Yeah, we don't have much evidence, but we think she hired Mitchell to kill Smallwood.
That doesn't seem to fit her profile.
- Are you guys sure about this? - Pieces don't fit completely, but we have video evidence of her buying a burner phone.
We don't have enough that will hold up in court.
We need more before the cops can use this.
Okay, I'll look into it.
I'll get back to you.
What does Christina Lang have to do with any of this? More than you'd expect.
Explain.
Now.
Thirteen years ago, she paid me to disappear.
For good.
It was a lot of money.
It wasn't until I got clean that I put two and two together.
They framed you.
Lang was behind it all.
She got your DNA.
She planted the murder weapon.
She tipped off the cops.
What could you have done to Lang to piss her off that much? Honestly, I was using pretty heavily back then too.
I have no idea.
She said something about-- you being too close to something.
I don't know.
Something to do with a lawyer.
This all happened around the time that Lang got the gig to become a Crown.
I was investigating a case involving drugs connected to another case that had been thrown out of court.
So Christina Lang is the Kingpin.
She was using Mitchell to do her dirty work.
You know, look, fine.
You were a junkie.
So you flipped on me.
Framed me.
I get that.
But why did you take so long to come forward? I've been in jail, or I've been on the run ever since.
You and I had a lot of bad blood.
You're the one who pretty much got me hooked on H, remember? I guess I wanted you to suffer.
This has gone on long enough.
We need you to talk to the cops.
Right now.
- What is this? - It's the hit man.
What's going on? - You still got that gun? - Oh no.
Gentlemen! Let's not make this any harder than it needs to be! We gotta get the hell outta here.
Hold on, buddy.
You're gonna be fine.
Les.
Smallwood.
Smallwood.
You're gonna make it.
We're lucky we found you when we did.
What is this? Smallwood's watch? - Go.
- Alright.
He's gonna kill us.
Just calm down.
I'm running out.
I knew I shouldn't have come back.
This is all your fault.
Look.
I know this isn't an optimal situation.
But I need you to not run out into the open.
- We gotta get her back.
- I'm out.
We gotta bluff it.
This isn't over.
If you ever wanna see this one alive again, you'll find me.
Got it? Great.
I got the report on the wire you found in Smallwoods's driveway.
Just standard electrical.
I'll keep looking into it.
Did Hood have Inspector Smallwood's watch? What's the deal there? My guess was Smallwood was there before he died-- where they found Hood.
- So whoever planted the bomb in his car-- - Likely shot Hood.
What is it? Look familiar? It's an SD card for a smart phone.
Find a way to get into this completely on the down low I know just the way to do it.
Look, what are you doing? We need to find Mitchell, if Lisa dies, then this entire thing is is for nothing.
Christina Lang please.
You know, compassion really is your number one quality.
Oh, okay thank you.
Thank you very much.
Lang didn't show up to the office today.
She's not at work.
If she's behind this, she'll know where Mitchell has taken Lisa.
I guess we'll need her home address.
Nothing.
You got anything? Yeah.
You could say that.
Hey.
I know how this looks.
It looks bad.
Bad? Kevin Crocker, a dead body, a dead police inspector.
And now Hood is in the hospital fighting for his life.
Would you not touch anything? Please.
So however bad you think this is, Jake-- it is much, much worse.
We thought that Christina Lang was behind this whole thing.
But that doesn't make any sense, now, because of course she's dead.
It looks like she was strangled with the same gauge and and grade of wire that I found in Smallwoods's driveway.
The car bomb.
Whoever killed Lang-- killed Smallwood.
That would be Mitchell.
The hit man.
And he's got Lisa held hostage.
Lisa Younghusband is dead.
Wrong.
Wrong? As far as I recall, you're the chief suspect in her murder-- for which you skipped trial.
And are now on the run from the law.
We, we met Lisa.
And I can assure you, she is very much alive.
- Sorry.
- Is that a joke? No, it's dad.
Oh well.
Sorry.
It's dad.
Go ahead.
Go on.
What do you got? So, we looked into Christina Lang's cases.
She has the lowest conviction rate amongst the Crown when it comes to drug related cases.
What does that mean? Smallwood was holding on some secret court transcripts - that were supposed to be sealed.
- Okay.
They're plea deal conversations, involving Christina Lang.
It's her pleading out drug cases.
And there was another lawyer involved.
Who? Richardson.
We're on the edge of uncovering a massive drug conspiracy here.
I'll call you back.
I have some information that I'm pretty sure you're not gonna like.
And you have proof? You know I'm a judge, yes? I'm not accusing you of anything.
I'm asking you for your help.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
And it certainly does seem that you're accusing me of conspiring with Christina Lang to throw out drug related convictions.
No one is accusing you of anything, Judge.
Where is she, anyway? She's dead.
We found her body a short while ago.
She's She's dead? I know you two were-- You worked many cases together.
I'm sorry.
Is that all? That's all, for now.
If there is a next time, make sure you have something to ask me about.
You got me? What now? Now we hope that he leads us to Mitchell and Lisa.
Come on.
Shouldn't we be calling in your backup? Mitchell might have already killed Lisa by now.
If Richardson is involved in this, I have no idea how deeply this goes into the Department.
We're gonna have to take him down ourselves.
So.
Plan? You two stay here.
I'll take care of things.
I'll check it out first.
Do not go in there.
Real plan? We're gonna let her go in there.
Face a hit man alone? Not likely.
Let's go.
Isn't this the place everyone thought you died the first time? Yes.
Ironic.
That you're actually gonna die here for real.
Maybe it was meant to be.
Mitchell.
You have been making a very, very large mess.
You know that? Shooting up a library? Putting a bullet in that bald cop.
Not to mention-- killing Christina Lang.
She was a liability.
And she was supposed to have killed this one - years ago.
- Let's just get it over with.
Get rid of her.
Find Crocker.
And then tell your employers we won't have any of these kind of problems again.
Kneel down.
No.
You don't have to do this.
Yes.
I do.
Now, kneel down.
Are you sure it's a good idea to shoot her in here? In a few days, they're gonna turn this place into condos.
So? So.
They're gonna pour entirely new cement floors.
We shoot her, wrap her up in the tarp, tear up a couple of floor boards and we stick her in.
No.
Please.
Shut up.
She'll be buried here for a hundred years.
Plus.
I like the irony of her ending being here.
Don't you? Look.
I don't know anything.
Okay, I'll disappear.
I'll never come back.
I promise.
Whatever.
Just do it quickly.
No, no.
You're gonna do it.
And if you don't-- well-- there's lots of floor space for you down below.
Sorry.
- Hold it.
- Easy, easy.
You got me.
Yeah, I got you.
That's for Inspector Smallwood, you piece of shit.
If I was you, I'd get the hell out of here.
No! Kevin.
Don't do it.
Why? He deserves to die.
Crocker, drop it.
Look, buddy.
We spent all day, you know, trying to clear you of one murder.
So please.
Why don't we just call it a day? I just wanna ask you one question.
Why didn't you just kill me? Why did you have to pin a murder on me? It was easier to make the world believe you were a corrupt cop.
We kill you-- and I got fifty of her breathing down my neck.
It was-- It was business.
That's all.
Kevin? Kevin, knock it off.
If you kill him, your daughter, Tinny.
She's gonna kill me.
So.
Why don't you just give me the gun? Thanks.
You look good.
Thanks.
So do you.
Being vindicated on a murder charge does give a fella a certain glow.
I guess it would.
Listen.
Thanks for not being as bad as everyone thought you were.
Well, I don't know.
I have had my moments.
But-- murder was never one of them.
Well, I'll take that.
Sorry to interrupt some quality father-daughter time, but-- - That's okay I should get back to work-- - I'll see ya.
You know I think it's gonna be easier for you and me to see each other these days.
Yeah.
Me too.
Congrats.
Thank you.
Kevin, I-- I don't know what to say.
Well, how about you start with I'm very sorry I thought you were an unrepentant homicidal maniac.
Then, we can just move on.
- I am.
- Done.
So what next? Well.
I'm an escaped convict, so I supposed they gotta keep me locked up in here until they process whatever needs to be processed.
But I'm hoping in a couple of weeks, I'm free as a bird.
Good for you.
So Tinny tells me you have a daughter too.
She does, huh? Sloan.
Is that her name? Yeah.
Been a heluva couple of years for us, hasn't it? Sure has.
I guess we're just really lucky.
Ah well, my assistant here tells me it's time for me to go back inside.
Thanks.
Partner.
Jake.
Are you here to see Hood? Yeah.
How's he making out? He lost a lot of blood.
But he's on the mend.
Good.
I'm glad to hear it.
You should know.
He insisted you not see him.
He said you'd likely send him back to intensive care.
Yeah, well-- I'm here to see you anyways.
I got you these.
Congrats on the fixed prostate.
Gary? In retrospect, I probably should have removed that card when I stole those flowers.
But, you know, it's the thought that counts.
Yeah.
How are you doing? Smallwood was a good cop.
He deserved better.
Yeah, he did.
They gave me his job.
Acting Inspector.
But according to the brass, they want to make it permanent.
And how do you feel about that? I feel a whole lot of things.
What do you way we get outta here and I take you home? I would really, really like that.
See that's the kind of response I was hoping for for.
No, Jake, not like that! Well, you can't blame a fella for being enthusiastic.
- Hi.
- Hi Des.
What are you--? I'm dating Tinny.
What? - Next Wednesday - Who are you? Bill Murdoch, who are you? Yannick Bisson, that's Detective Murdoch to you, guest stars in a special episode.
- I lost him.
- You lost him.
That was a different place, at a different time.
Republic of Doyle, next Wednesday at 9:00 on CBC.
Premiering January 23rd at 9:00, NHL Revealed.
A season like no other.
Take a shot.
It's time that we tell him.
No.
You need to move out of my house today.
Move in with Jake.
What? I was not gonna shoot you, I was gonna shoot Becker.
I'm supposed to take the word of a murder? We had some good times.
Right up until you killed that woman in cold blood.
Someone was searching my computer for Jake Doyle.
I need to make sure that no one knows what I'm doing.
I knew he was in there, that crooked cop.
I'll be good for him.
Jake are you sure you don't mind me living with you? Of course I mind.
Jake! I'm joking.
I'm not joking.
Really? Yes Des it's be find, okay? I don't want it to be a permanent thing.
But it's fine.
This is all your fault.
Cool.
And you know, obviously, I'm not gonna stay here that long.
It's not like it'll be forever.
I mean, that would be weird.
Des.
Remember what we talked about.
I know.
You know what? I knows your not wicked for letting me stay here.
Smooth.
You've gotta tell him.
Remember the plan? No, no, no, no.
No.
Des.
Yes! He can't strangle you over the phone.
And I, um.
I need to tell you something.
What? I peed in the sink.
What? It's not the right time.
And I didn't pee in the sink.
He hung up.
I can't believe you moved him in with me.
Why didn't he just stay with you at the house? Where's the fun in that? Besides, it'll do you good.
Now, who's this mystery client we're meeting? This isn't about a woman, is it? No.
No.
Yes.
She is a woman.
But she's a client.
She hired us.
So Whatever.
We gotta go meet her.
And I suppose you gave her your usual discounted rate.
I'm your son.
Okay? I can't believe that you think that I'm not shallow.
No I don't think it.
I know it.
I'm starting to think your client missus isn't here.
This is the old Rec Centre.
Didn't I learn how to swim here? Been shut down for years.
I'm getting a bad feeling about this.
Yeah.
I think I know what you mean.
Inspector Smallwood? What's this about? What are you guys doing? How'd you know I'd be here? Buddy, what's on the go? Are you okay? I should have known you were involved.
You were his partner.
Are you high, or something? Who are you talking about, Craig? Well, he'd be referring to me.
Hi there Jake.
Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh yeah ee yay ee yay ee yay Oh yeah ee yay ee yay ee yay I'm Christina Lang.
You're a Crown Attorney here in town, right? I know who you are.
I'm looking for Inspector Craig Smallwood.
We were scheduled to have a meeting today.
He's not in at the moment.
Do you know where I can reach him? Give us a sec? I've been trying to call him for two days.
Do you have any idea where he is? No.
I knew you'd show, Jake.
Always a sucker for a damsel in distress.
Well you got me here.
Now what do you want? Well, I've been on the run for a long, long time.
And that's gonna end right here.
And you're gonna help me.
I'm not sure how you knocking a police inspector unconscious and kidnapping us is gonna help you, but-- Whatever.
What do you want? Well, we're all gonna work together-- to prove my innocence.
Sounds like fun.
Yeah? Oh, yes.
Yeah, you remember this place, don't you partner? It's here where they said I was supposed to have killed that hooker.
Lisa Younghusband.
How could I forget? All those years ago? Everyone thought I was guilty.
Maybe because you skipped town before the trial.
Well, you're awake, inspector.
You know, they made him an inspector after he framed me.
Isn't that crazy? Everyone believed you were guilty.
Well, the only problem with that conclusion, is-- it isn't substanciated by a dead body, which, as far as I remember, is kind of important to a murder investigation.
Keep talking.
But you.
You took care to make everything look like I was guilty.
Didn't you, Inspector? What are you talking about? Why don't you tell Jake and Malachy Doyle here what I am talking about-- Please, would you mind doing that for me? You're insane.
I'm at Smallwood's house.
There's no sign of him.
You know, it looks like he hasn't been here for a while.
No sign of him here either.
I'll keep looking.
I know a few places where he can be.
If you hear anything, you call me.
It could be that he's just on a bender.
Since his divorce, trust me, it happens.
No, there's something feels wrong.
I'll call you later.
Hood, wait.
Did Smallwood have a police cruiser? Yeah, he took out an unmarked car a couple of days ago.
Put a trace on it.
The GPS.
Text me the address.
Des? Des? Oh, oh.
Sorry.
Sorry.
I just, you know, me-- moving in with Jake.
I don't wanna be a burden.
To anyone-- And him.
So -- I just wanna make sure the place is clean.
He will appreciate that.
Yeah.
I think he will.
Yes.
But-- Could I ask that you vacuum later.
When I'm not trying to do paperwork.
Oh, yeah.
Duh, yeah.
I can totally do that.
Thank you.
That's awesome.
Sorry honey.
Did I upset you? No.
It's not you.
No.
I just-- If you had, like, a deep dark secret.
Like so dark that you felt like it would kill your best friend, what would you do? You're afraid to tell Jake that you and Tinny are a couple.
How do you know? Does everyone else know? Malachy told me.
Yeah, I think everybody knows.
Jake? Jake knows? That's why he wanted me to move in here.
He's gonna kill me when I'm not looking! No.
Jake doesn't know yet.
Are you sure.
Are you serious? Are you sure? Yeah.
I mean.
When he finds out he's gonna be totally annoyed and mad.
But, you know what? If you treat Tinny well, which I know you will, he's gonna be really happy for you.
Hello Darling.
How's your day going? Interesting.
Bit of an odd request.
I need you to look into some details around a murder.
Oh.
Dear God.
When did it happen? Thirteen years ago.
The victim's name was Lisa Younghusband.
Wait a minute.
Isn't that the woman that Kevin Crocker Yeah.
Dig up whatever you can.
And don't let anyone know you're doing it, if possible.
Love you.
Love you too.
Malachy-- Do I need to be worried here? No, no.
Just let me know if you find anything.
Okay.
We should be worried.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Good work fellas.
Okay, So-- to recap.
You help me or I kill him.
For real this time.
This one has an expiry date on him.
Let me go.
It's only a matter of time before my people come looking for me.
This is not the way to go about proving to people that you're not a crazy person.
Yeah.
There's my old partner.
Always had my back.
Don't give me that.
You pretty much confessed the whole thing to me at the time.
Remember? No.
Not really.
Because at the time, I had a whole lot of memory loss issues, because I had a lot of substance abuse issues.
- So if I did confess - You did.
Well maybe.
Or maybe I was just messing with you.
Solid defence.
Come on, Jake.
Look at this cop.
Look deep into his rat faced eyes.
You remember him.
The Professional Standards Bureau.
You were in the Rat Squad.
I knew I didn't like you for a reason.
And Mal, ask him about the murder weapon.
Go on.
If you guys don't help me get out of this, you're both going down with him.
Come on, Jake.
You're one of the best cops I ever worked with.
Look at this man, and tell me you trust him.
Prove my innocence.
And save a scumbag's life.
We all know what this one has to lose.
What about you two? Rehab, Walter.
He needs rehab, immediately.
And I'll lighten his sentence.
Thank you My Lord.
Now, working with you makes me regret going back into private practice.
You were a good Crown Attorney, Walter.
You still got a few good ones.
And some great ones.
Judge Richardson.
Giving another one of Walter McLean's drugged out clients a break? I believe in second chances, Ms.
Lang.
You know.
I was a Crown Attorney myself.
I'd be happy to give you a few pointers.
Or not.
Mr.
Honour.
Can we speak for a moment? If this is about your case, please have your counsel contact me.
No, no.
Nothing like that.
It's about an old case.
Back when you were a Crown Prosecutor.
We're PIs.
Investigators.
Private.
Okay.
How can I help you? It's about a murder.
From years ago.
Lisa Younghusband.
How could I forget? She was a call girl, yes? Murdered by a corrupt cop.
Yeah, see, that's the thing.
He was never convicted.
As I recall-- He skipped town before trial.
I'm not sure how I can help you.
Why are we talking about this? Well, we've been hired by someone.
If there are grounds for reopening this investigation.
And it could possibly shed new light on this case, by all means.
Call my assistant.
She'll give you access to the files.
Thank you so much.
You High-- Worship--ness.
Good luck.
Team Deadly.
Ow.
Add kidnapping to the list, Malachy.
Get me away from this lunatic.
We'll see if I can get them to go easy on you.
- Otherwise-- - Don't let him scare you, boys.
The only only one is gonna be facing Lady Justice when this is all over is this one.
'Cause you set me up.
And now you're gonna pay.
Take it easy.
Where are you taking us? We're going to his house.
I need the names of all the other rats who who were part of the frame up.
There was a tip.
I got a tip about a murder weapon.
What is wrong with you? You just knocked out our only lead.
Oh come on.
He's lying.
He'd say anything to get you two on his side.
Uh, b'ys.
What? What's that? Get out of the car.
Unless you want this to be the last thing that you ever see.
Smallwood's cruiser's out back.
Why does this place look so familiar? All I know is that there was a murder here years ago.
I remember reading about it.
A hooker.
Lisa something.
The one that Kevin Crocker killed.
Crocker? Smallwood was looking into Crocker.
That can't be a coincidence.
Something happened here.
Recently.
Kevin Crocker.
Come on.
It's time to go.
And don't even think about doing anything stupid.
Hold on, hold on.
Who are you? Don't worry about who I am, Mr.
Doyle.
Everybody okay? You're welcome.
Okay.
Come on.
Hold on a second.
Yeah, hello police.
I need to leave a message directly for Daniel Hood, or for Leslie Bennet please.
Let's go.
Okay.
The lady of the night.
Lisa Younghusband.
Right.
Was killed at the old Rec Centre.
Yes.
And, of course, - the man accused of murdering her is-- - My father.
What's going on, guys? Why are you looking into this? Honey-- We're not sure.
But-- We think Malachy and Jake are with Crocker.
Kevin Crocker is a wanted felon.
Is he back in town? Are Poppy and Jake helping him? Look, Tinny, we don't really have any info on this right now.
Malachy just asked us to look into it.
And he said it was urgent.
I'm guessing my phone being bugged had something to do with this.
Someone bugged your phone? Yeah.
I thought it had to do with Uncle Jake, but-- I guess whoever did it was looking for something on Crocker.
I've studied every inch of this case.
Honey, if we're getting into this-- there are ramifications-- if the cops know you're involved.
I know, but I never believed he did it.
Why? - He's my father.
I just-- - I think that the odds are stacked against him on this.
I mean, the day Crocker was arrested-- His tox screen showed that he was filled with drugs and alcohol.
I know.
Tinny.
He had the victim's blood all over.
I know.
All of this.
Okay? But there is one glaring issue here.
The body was never found.
How can you have a murder without a body? The Prosecution's working there was that he dumped it in the ocean and it just disappeared.
Okay, Tinny.
There's just one thing that you're skipping over here.
And it's a pretty big point, is that-- Crocker confessed the whole thing to Jake.
Malachy, what's going on? You have no idea how weird this whole thing is.
Can you run a track on a guy named Brian Mitchell? You don't think it's just a little bit odd? In the middle of all this, out of nowhere-- A hitman suddenly shows up looking for me.
So what? A guy's after you.
You're scum.
Scum attracts scum.
Law of the land.
Regardless of your attitude.
I appreciate the save.
Are we gonna let him go, or what? Nooo! Not until Smallwood here admits that he framed me for the murder.
And that he coughs up whoever it actually did it.
I mean, no murder weapon.
No body.
No case.
Until this one-- from-- the Rat Squad.
He suddenly-- shows up with the murder weapon? Hey, listen to me.
Nobody else could find it, right? I mean, they sent in teams, Squadrons, literally squadrons of guys scoured that centre.
Nothing.
And the him-- The guy who'd been investigating me for years.
He suddenly shows up with a gun? Kevin, you gotta calm down.
No, I will not calm down.
Because either somebody planted that weapon and told him where to find it.
Or he planted it himself.
I didn't plant anything.
I didn't frame you.
You did say that someone gave you a tip.
Right? Don't you find that a bit convenient? Look, I know it seems convenient.
And I know there seems to be something else going on here.
Alright finally, he's starting to make a little sense.
But for all I know, Crocker had an accomplice who helped him kill Lisa Younghusband.
Accomplice? And they say my theories are crazy.
You are crazy.
Rose tells me the mad gun man is a hired heavy.
Are you sure you never saw him before? No! Never.
What now? Now? Okay.
Now we are all gonna work together.
And we are gonna piece this thing.
Together.
Who's this? Hey buddy, wake up.
Ah! Son of a bitch.
Everything is in here.
Anyone I had spoken to.
Anyone involved in the case.
It's all here.
Who else had access to this? At this point, only me.
If you thought there was a problem, - why didn't you run this further up to chain.
- I don't know.
I'll admit.
It always felt to me that someone-- Maybe on the inside was working with Crocker.
Working with me? Like who? Jake here? Or Malachy? Or maybe no one.
Maybe just you.
Framing me.
Kevin.
Stop.
I wanna know who set me up.
And why.
And right now.
And you are the only one who can tell me.
Alright.
I started getting letters.
No return address.
About a year ago.
Signed by "Regret"? Yeah.
Proclaiming my innocence, taking guilt upon themselves.
And saying they should have come forward? How'd you know that? I got the same letters when I was in prison.
So we've no idea who sent them.
No.
But they certainly got my attention.
At first I thought they were from him.
My handwriting isn't anywhere near as nice.
Then I thought it was a plan of yours.
Getting your partner to send in evidence.
To get you out.
That's not a bad plan.
But I ran a trace.
They didn't come from the prison.
And they were connected to anyone-- he woulda called.
Or had contact with on the outside.
So? So-- The rat started digging.
Getting pieces of evidence.
It's all safe on my laptop.
Your laptop? Are the files encrypted? Yeah.
In case someone on the Force, or higher up was involved.
You wanted to be sure that no one could tamper with your investigation.
Where's the laptop now? It's in my car.
It's in a hidden compartment in my trunk.
Everything I've gathered so far.
Maybe.
Maybe, maybe it could help you.
I've been waiting for this for a long, long time.
If you're lying, I will not hesitate to end you.
Are we clear? Yeah.
Alright Jake, go with him Grab the laptop.
I'll stay with Malachy here.
You try anything, and I'll kill him.
You understand? Right.
For the record, I'm actually starting to believe you're innocent.
Jake, we need to run.
Yes, b'y.
I'm gonna leave my father alone with a crazy person.
We both know Crocker's not gonna hurt your father.
We get to my car.
We get some help.
Tell me the truth.
Did you set him up or not? Jake, we need to bring him in.
We'll work on what we have.
I need another trial.
We present the new evidence.
Keys.
Ah! Sorry, Jake.
Stop! No, Smallwood! No! You didn't deserve this Craig.
You were a good Cop.
And I owe so much to you in my career-- As a professional and as a friend.
I'm so sorry I let this happen.
I'm sorry.
Any word from Jake? No.
None of them are answering my calls.
And what about Hood? What in the hell is going on here? Get everybody in the bullpen.
We are finding whoever did this.
And we're gonna make them pay.
You gonna be okay? Yeah.
Lucky.
A lot luckier than Smallwood.
Just tell us now.
Did you arrange all this? Yeah, some sort of super revenge plot against us - and Smallwood? - You've been known to make crazier decisions, Crocker.
Did I hate him? Yes.
Did I want him to die? No.
Why? Because he's the only one who could prove my innocence.
You told us ten times you wanted to kill him.
Oh, come on.
Use your heads.
That was a bluff.
I was bluffing.
The only reason why we're not turning you in right now, is because of Tinny.
We gotta get off this road.
The cops are gonna be everywhere.
Good call.
Craig Smallwood was a father, a friend, and a great police officer.
We all, every one of us on this Force will feel his passing.
I know that.
It wasn't right.
But listen to me carefully.
We do not have time for any of that.
Not because it isn't the right thing to do.
Not because it isn't our right to grieve.
But because we will not waste a moment of our energy on anything other than finding whoever killed Craig Smallwood.
Is that understood? Go.
Get them.
And somebody find me Sergeant Hood now.
Doyle.
Come here.
Run this by Forensics.
See if you can find something to match whatever ignited Craig's car.
Please.
I don't know if this is relevant, or what.
But-- I got a good suspicion that my father is back in town.
A good suspicion? I haven't seen him.
But, yeah.
Kevin Crocker is back.
Smallwood, before he died, he said he was working on your father's case.
Sergeant.
I got a feeling this is all connect to this somehow.
Are you sure you're on the right side of this? In your head, I mean? What are you saying? We're talking about your family here.
I'm not sure you should be even near this case.
Leslie.
I know my father had nothing to do with Smallwood's death.
Let along Jake.
Is that from Dispatch? Someone sent a message-- directly to you and Hood.
Hood responded.
So, you're like-- definitely Tinny's father, right? She's nice.
She's great.
Signed, Regret.
Cryptic.
You got the same letters from the same person? And emails.
Once I got out of prison, whoever that is sent emails to that account.
Yeah, it's gonna be hard to track this, the wording of these emails is coded, I mean, I'm good, but I'm nowhere near that good.
You didn't try to meet with whoever was sending you these? No.
It could've been a trap.
Trying to lure me out of hiding.
But I came back anyway, because I was sick of running.
Now, Regret claims that he or she has irrefutable evidence that I did not kill Lisa Younghusband.
When you sent the emails, how long did it take for them to get back to you? Well, honestly, I'd send an email, I'd get a reply straight away.
What, are you thinking what I'm thinking? Email.
Bait.
We'll set up a meet right now.
Then we have our witness.
Or, if it's a fake, we'll have Smallwood's killer.
Message sent.
Let's talk now.
I debated putting a winky face there.
'Cause normally when-- I text Tinny, we do.
Hey, Rose.
The guy you pulled the cell phone from? Yeah, Brian Mitchell.
He's the hit man who almost killed us.
Yeah.
I tracked his phone to the store, uh, that it was sold at.
And uh, well, it cost me three hundred bucks.
But the clerk eventually caved.
- What is it? - Surveillance video from the past two days at the store.
Nice work.
Thank you.
I'm thinking whoever bought that phone-- likely is on that tape.
Oh, wait, wait, wait.
It's the Regret Person.
Ten minutes.
Gosling Library.
- Let's go.
- I'll start sorting through this footage.
Hood! I got it.
I think.
I went through all the vids of the security footage at the store where the phone was bought.
What's you find, honey? Well, in the past two days, buddy sold three phones.
I zoomed in on the faces of each buyer.
And only one bought a red phone.
And that is not Brian Mitchell.
That is Christina Lang.
St.
John's Crown Attorney.
And why is she buying a burner for a hit man? That's a heluva good question.
It is, isn't it? So, how do we know who we're meeting? I got a feeling they'll know you.
Lisa Younghusband.
- You're-- - Alive.
Yeah.
Kinda hard for you to be the murderer-- Of a person who's still alive? Yeah, I got that.
Thanks.
So, obviously, you've been alive all this time.
I have.
Yeah.
I have.
Would you mind terribly telling us exactly what is going on? Because that would be great.
You know, if it's not too inconvenient.
I don't know where to start.
How about you start around about the time when you and a bunch of other people decided to ruin my life.
Kevin, you know how messed up I was back then.
We both were.
I can-- At least until I got clean, I could barely remember anything.
Excuse me.
Dad, what do you got? We don't have the full story yet.
We think Christina Lang is the mastermind.
The Crown Attorney.
Yeah, we don't have much evidence, but we think she hired Mitchell to kill Smallwood.
That doesn't seem to fit her profile.
- Are you guys sure about this? - Pieces don't fit completely, but we have video evidence of her buying a burner phone.
We don't have enough that will hold up in court.
We need more before the cops can use this.
Okay, I'll look into it.
I'll get back to you.
What does Christina Lang have to do with any of this? More than you'd expect.
Explain.
Now.
Thirteen years ago, she paid me to disappear.
For good.
It was a lot of money.
It wasn't until I got clean that I put two and two together.
They framed you.
Lang was behind it all.
She got your DNA.
She planted the murder weapon.
She tipped off the cops.
What could you have done to Lang to piss her off that much? Honestly, I was using pretty heavily back then too.
I have no idea.
She said something about-- you being too close to something.
I don't know.
Something to do with a lawyer.
This all happened around the time that Lang got the gig to become a Crown.
I was investigating a case involving drugs connected to another case that had been thrown out of court.
So Christina Lang is the Kingpin.
She was using Mitchell to do her dirty work.
You know, look, fine.
You were a junkie.
So you flipped on me.
Framed me.
I get that.
But why did you take so long to come forward? I've been in jail, or I've been on the run ever since.
You and I had a lot of bad blood.
You're the one who pretty much got me hooked on H, remember? I guess I wanted you to suffer.
This has gone on long enough.
We need you to talk to the cops.
Right now.
- What is this? - It's the hit man.
What's going on? - You still got that gun? - Oh no.
Gentlemen! Let's not make this any harder than it needs to be! We gotta get the hell outta here.
Hold on, buddy.
You're gonna be fine.
Les.
Smallwood.
Smallwood.
You're gonna make it.
We're lucky we found you when we did.
What is this? Smallwood's watch? - Go.
- Alright.
He's gonna kill us.
Just calm down.
I'm running out.
I knew I shouldn't have come back.
This is all your fault.
Look.
I know this isn't an optimal situation.
But I need you to not run out into the open.
- We gotta get her back.
- I'm out.
We gotta bluff it.
This isn't over.
If you ever wanna see this one alive again, you'll find me.
Got it? Great.
I got the report on the wire you found in Smallwoods's driveway.
Just standard electrical.
I'll keep looking into it.
Did Hood have Inspector Smallwood's watch? What's the deal there? My guess was Smallwood was there before he died-- where they found Hood.
- So whoever planted the bomb in his car-- - Likely shot Hood.
What is it? Look familiar? It's an SD card for a smart phone.
Find a way to get into this completely on the down low I know just the way to do it.
Look, what are you doing? We need to find Mitchell, if Lisa dies, then this entire thing is is for nothing.
Christina Lang please.
You know, compassion really is your number one quality.
Oh, okay thank you.
Thank you very much.
Lang didn't show up to the office today.
She's not at work.
If she's behind this, she'll know where Mitchell has taken Lisa.
I guess we'll need her home address.
Nothing.
You got anything? Yeah.
You could say that.
Hey.
I know how this looks.
It looks bad.
Bad? Kevin Crocker, a dead body, a dead police inspector.
And now Hood is in the hospital fighting for his life.
Would you not touch anything? Please.
So however bad you think this is, Jake-- it is much, much worse.
We thought that Christina Lang was behind this whole thing.
But that doesn't make any sense, now, because of course she's dead.
It looks like she was strangled with the same gauge and and grade of wire that I found in Smallwoods's driveway.
The car bomb.
Whoever killed Lang-- killed Smallwood.
That would be Mitchell.
The hit man.
And he's got Lisa held hostage.
Lisa Younghusband is dead.
Wrong.
Wrong? As far as I recall, you're the chief suspect in her murder-- for which you skipped trial.
And are now on the run from the law.
We, we met Lisa.
And I can assure you, she is very much alive.
- Sorry.
- Is that a joke? No, it's dad.
Oh well.
Sorry.
It's dad.
Go ahead.
Go on.
What do you got? So, we looked into Christina Lang's cases.
She has the lowest conviction rate amongst the Crown when it comes to drug related cases.
What does that mean? Smallwood was holding on some secret court transcripts - that were supposed to be sealed.
- Okay.
They're plea deal conversations, involving Christina Lang.
It's her pleading out drug cases.
And there was another lawyer involved.
Who? Richardson.
We're on the edge of uncovering a massive drug conspiracy here.
I'll call you back.
I have some information that I'm pretty sure you're not gonna like.
And you have proof? You know I'm a judge, yes? I'm not accusing you of anything.
I'm asking you for your help.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
And it certainly does seem that you're accusing me of conspiring with Christina Lang to throw out drug related convictions.
No one is accusing you of anything, Judge.
Where is she, anyway? She's dead.
We found her body a short while ago.
She's She's dead? I know you two were-- You worked many cases together.
I'm sorry.
Is that all? That's all, for now.
If there is a next time, make sure you have something to ask me about.
You got me? What now? Now we hope that he leads us to Mitchell and Lisa.
Come on.
Shouldn't we be calling in your backup? Mitchell might have already killed Lisa by now.
If Richardson is involved in this, I have no idea how deeply this goes into the Department.
We're gonna have to take him down ourselves.
So.
Plan? You two stay here.
I'll take care of things.
I'll check it out first.
Do not go in there.
Real plan? We're gonna let her go in there.
Face a hit man alone? Not likely.
Let's go.
Isn't this the place everyone thought you died the first time? Yes.
Ironic.
That you're actually gonna die here for real.
Maybe it was meant to be.
Mitchell.
You have been making a very, very large mess.
You know that? Shooting up a library? Putting a bullet in that bald cop.
Not to mention-- killing Christina Lang.
She was a liability.
And she was supposed to have killed this one - years ago.
- Let's just get it over with.
Get rid of her.
Find Crocker.
And then tell your employers we won't have any of these kind of problems again.
Kneel down.
No.
You don't have to do this.
Yes.
I do.
Now, kneel down.
Are you sure it's a good idea to shoot her in here? In a few days, they're gonna turn this place into condos.
So? So.
They're gonna pour entirely new cement floors.
We shoot her, wrap her up in the tarp, tear up a couple of floor boards and we stick her in.
No.
Please.
Shut up.
She'll be buried here for a hundred years.
Plus.
I like the irony of her ending being here.
Don't you? Look.
I don't know anything.
Okay, I'll disappear.
I'll never come back.
I promise.
Whatever.
Just do it quickly.
No, no.
You're gonna do it.
And if you don't-- well-- there's lots of floor space for you down below.
Sorry.
- Hold it.
- Easy, easy.
You got me.
Yeah, I got you.
That's for Inspector Smallwood, you piece of shit.
If I was you, I'd get the hell out of here.
No! Kevin.
Don't do it.
Why? He deserves to die.
Crocker, drop it.
Look, buddy.
We spent all day, you know, trying to clear you of one murder.
So please.
Why don't we just call it a day? I just wanna ask you one question.
Why didn't you just kill me? Why did you have to pin a murder on me? It was easier to make the world believe you were a corrupt cop.
We kill you-- and I got fifty of her breathing down my neck.
It was-- It was business.
That's all.
Kevin? Kevin, knock it off.
If you kill him, your daughter, Tinny.
She's gonna kill me.
So.
Why don't you just give me the gun? Thanks.
You look good.
Thanks.
So do you.
Being vindicated on a murder charge does give a fella a certain glow.
I guess it would.
Listen.
Thanks for not being as bad as everyone thought you were.
Well, I don't know.
I have had my moments.
But-- murder was never one of them.
Well, I'll take that.
Sorry to interrupt some quality father-daughter time, but-- - That's okay I should get back to work-- - I'll see ya.
You know I think it's gonna be easier for you and me to see each other these days.
Yeah.
Me too.
Congrats.
Thank you.
Kevin, I-- I don't know what to say.
Well, how about you start with I'm very sorry I thought you were an unrepentant homicidal maniac.
Then, we can just move on.
- I am.
- Done.
So what next? Well.
I'm an escaped convict, so I supposed they gotta keep me locked up in here until they process whatever needs to be processed.
But I'm hoping in a couple of weeks, I'm free as a bird.
Good for you.
So Tinny tells me you have a daughter too.
She does, huh? Sloan.
Is that her name? Yeah.
Been a heluva couple of years for us, hasn't it? Sure has.
I guess we're just really lucky.
Ah well, my assistant here tells me it's time for me to go back inside.
Thanks.
Partner.
Jake.
Are you here to see Hood? Yeah.
How's he making out? He lost a lot of blood.
But he's on the mend.
Good.
I'm glad to hear it.
You should know.
He insisted you not see him.
He said you'd likely send him back to intensive care.
Yeah, well-- I'm here to see you anyways.
I got you these.
Congrats on the fixed prostate.
Gary? In retrospect, I probably should have removed that card when I stole those flowers.
But, you know, it's the thought that counts.
Yeah.
How are you doing? Smallwood was a good cop.
He deserved better.
Yeah, he did.
They gave me his job.
Acting Inspector.
But according to the brass, they want to make it permanent.
And how do you feel about that? I feel a whole lot of things.
What do you way we get outta here and I take you home? I would really, really like that.
See that's the kind of response I was hoping for for.
No, Jake, not like that! Well, you can't blame a fella for being enthusiastic.
- Hi.
- Hi Des.
What are you--? I'm dating Tinny.
What? - Next Wednesday - Who are you? Bill Murdoch, who are you? Yannick Bisson, that's Detective Murdoch to you, guest stars in a special episode.
- I lost him.
- You lost him.
That was a different place, at a different time.
