Hudson & Rex (2019–…): Season 3, Episode 11 - Blood on the Tracks - full transcript

Come on in,

and welcome to a favorite stop
on the Saint John's Ghost Walk.

The Laford Murders.

So about 20 years ago,

three men were found
murdered in cold blood

over the course of four days.

And each victim was found shot

and then marked with a red
X painted on their backs.

The first body was found in here.

And we were never able to find out

why the killer chose this location



because the police were
unable to apprehend him

before he took his own life.

Duane Laford's ghost has
been seen in the rafters.

So be careful, the killer
still haunts this place.

Uhh!

Stop! Wait! Everybody
just take a step back!

This is not a part of the tour!

What? What do you mean
it's not part of the tour?

Rex!

You are always ready to
work a late shift, hey?

Yeah, he never stops.
Us on the other hand,

- sometimes we need a little help.
- Oh, yes.

You are a life saver.

Mmmm.



Victim's in his late 50s.

He was shot twice with
a .38 calibre bullet.

There were no gunshots reported,

but he died less than four hours ago.

Hmm, do we have a name?

No, not yet. No wallet
and no cell phone.

So no ID.

Sounds like it could be a robbery,

but this is a pretty
strange place for it.

Well, here is where it gets interesting.

The Laford Murders.

I knew a fellow true crime fan
would be familiar with the red X.

I'm more than familiar with it.

I was obsessed with this in high school.

I mean, I'm talking, like, cutting
newspaper clippings out obsessed.

Anyway, what was it about
that case that drew you in?

I think it was something
about Duane Laford himself.

I mean, on one hand,
you have this artist.

He was an activist.
Worked with the community

and then, on the other hand...

Yeah, he was a cold-blooded murderer.

Yeah, it fascinated me
how those two extremes

could just live in the same body.

What have you got, partner?

In there?

Oh, I see it.

It's a cufflink.

With initials.

O.D.

It stands for Oswald Development.

A staple in the local real estate
scene for over 20 years.

Specializing in suburban development,

owned and founded by our latest victim.

Terrance Oswald.

His body found painted with a red X

just like the old Duane Laford murders.

- Jesse.
- Okay,

so Duane Laford was a popular artist

and a prominent member
of the Mi'kmaq nation.

Now back then, the press
referred to him as,

if you'll forgive my use of the
phrase, The Mad Mick-mack,

which is a derogatory term

based on an incorrect
settler's pronunciation.

Duane was a very vocal
Indigenous activist.

His civil disobedience and protests

made him a very familiar
face around the station.

Now his three victims were
high-rolling real estate developers

that worked for a company
called the Evermax Group.

Evermax. They had a monopoly
on real estate development

- back in the 90s.
- And they were looking to expand.

So when the Newfoundland
railway shut down in the 80s,

there was nearly a
thousand acres of land

that was up for grabs on
the outskirts of the city.

Now the land was once traditional
hunting territory of the Mi'kmaq.

So Duane Laford petitioned
the government

to have the land returned back
to the Indigenous community,

but Evermax put in an
offer that was too sweet

for the government to pass
up. So now the land is...

Well, it's this.

Ugh. My eyes are bleeding.

So Duane killed the
three execs in revenge.

It was one last act of protest
before he shot himself in his shed.

Okay, so how does this all
connect to our victim now?

The victim, Terrance, worked
at Evermax back in the day.

In fact, it was his
first job in real estate.

Now up until last night,

Terrance was the last remaining
survivor of the rail land projects.

That's an interesting connection.

Jesse, look into Duane Laford

and tell me if he has
any living relatives

- or friends.
- Okay.

Can you also pull up the old case files?

I want to compare the original
forensics to Terrance's murder.

- Got it.
- Can you also see

if there's any disputes
with Oswald Development?

Those are three very different
requests, just so you know,

but I'm on it.

Anyone notified Terrance's family yet?

His only relative in town
is his son, Andrew.

I don't think anyone's been
able to get a hold of him.

I guess that means you
drew short straw, Charlie.

Mmmm.

My dad was a hard man to get close to.

I thought I still had
time to change that.

- When was the last time you saw him?
- A month ago?

Our relationship had been rocky
since I left the business.

- You worked for him?
- For a while.

Dad wanted me to take over one day.

He was disappointed when I walked away.

Well, it looks like you put your
skills to better use elsewhere.

Sustainable vegan meal kits.

I just started the business off,

but veganism is a booming market.

- Impressive.
- Not to my dad.

He was old school.

Mm-hmm.

Excuse me for a moment.

Hey, Jesse. What have you got?

Oh, I got a lot. First, I was
able to find some threats

against Oswald Development
on social media.

And second,

city hall is in the middle
of a major legal battle

over the sale of some land in
Cedardale to Oswald Development.

And third, I was able to track down

the sole living relative of Duane.

Wow, that was a productive morning.

How'd you get all that so fast?

They're all the same person, Charlie.

- You're kidding.
- No.

No, Kiera Laford.

- What's the relationship to Duane?
- His daughter.

She works at the Eastern Door
Indigenous Community Centre

- in Cedardale.
- Oh, she's probably not too happy

about Oswald moving
into the neighbourhood.

No, no. They were trying to
build a townhouse development

right next door on some land

that the Indigenous community had
been using unofficially for years.

Send me that address.

And, hey, Jesse,

whatever you're putting in your cereal,

- I want some.
- Ah, you will never know.

Wh...?

Andrew.

Did your father ever mention

a townhouse development in Cedardale

next to an Indigenous community centre?

Yeah. The Centre was trying to
buy some land out from under him.

My dad never gave up
anything for anyone.

Okay. Well, thank you for your time.

Again, I'm very sorry for your loss.

Come on, pal.

Rex!

Can we take five?

Thank you.

Sorry about that. My, uh...
my partner finds new ways

to surprise me every day.

And today I learned that Rex,

he fancies himself a bit of a singer.

Oh, that's okay.

He has a lovely singing voice.

Well...

If you're here for the fundraiser,

it's not until 7:30.

Actually, I'm here to see Kiera Laford.

- That's me.
- Oh, well, I'm Detective Hudson.

You met my partner, Rex.

I just wanted to ask
you a few questions.

Do you know a man named Terrance Oswald?

Only by name.

He's building a neighbourhood
of townhomes in the area.

- Is that right?
- Well, not if I have anything to say about it.

What is this about?

- Terrance was murdered last night.
- What?

Oh, my God. That's awful.

He was found with a...

a red X painted on his back.

I don't know anything about that.

The murder last night mimicked
your father's crimes.

Kiera...

I just want to see if you can
help me connect it to the past.

I was 12.

What is it, Rex?

It's a beautiful mural.

My dad painted this.

It's a medicine wheel.

It symbolizes healing and balance.

He was very talented.

He's going to have to get down!

Rex, heel.

This red, it's very vibrant.

What shade is that exactly?

And, Kiera, earlier you said that
you knew Terrance by name only.

We did find some colourful comments

that you posted on social media.

Am I being accused of something?

I just need the questions answered.

And I have the right to remain silent.

So if you don't have a warrant,

he can't be sniffing around like that.

I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

Okay.

I appreciate your time.

We'll be in touch. Rex.

At the Indigenous Community
Centre, Rex picked up on a scent

in a mural that Duane painted.

I wonder if that paint that
was on Terrance Oswald

is the same as the paint that was
on Duane's victims back in the day.

It could be the mercury.

I ran some tests on the paint.

It's a pigment called cinnabar red

which hasn't been sold
in the country since 2002

due to its high mercury content.

You don't really think that
Kiera would still have cans

of her dad's paint kicking around
from that long ago, do you?

Well, I mean,

if she did, would that be
enough for a warrant?

You can buy vintage paint online.

Anyone could have bought some.

Okay, well, let's go with that.

Jesse, see if you can trace any
recent purchases of that paint.

Okay, yeah, on it.

If Jesse doesn't find anything,

we can talk warrants, Charlie.

Rex and I are going to talk to
the VP of Oswald Development.

- Keep me posted.
- Will do. Good luck.

Yeah, I know, pal.

Excuse me! I'm Detective Hudson.

Are you Mia Bailey?

You must be here to talk about Terrance.

- Yeah, we did call ahead.
- I know. I'm sorry.

There has just been so
much to take care of

with Terrance gone so unexpectedly.

Listen, do you have any idea where
Terrance was headed last night?

- No, I didn't see him at all yesterday.
- Ah.

Did he keep a schedule?

We couldn't find a cell phone.

Terrance didn't even own a cell phone.

He was old school.

Yeah, his son Andrew did mention that.

Yes, and he would know
better than anyone.

Terrance was pretty tough on Andrew

- when he was with the firm.
- Ah.

Terrance sounds like he was
a little difficult to work with.

Oh. Um...

He wasn't so bad, you just
had to figure out your place

- in the hierarchy.
- Where was yours?

Old school only takes a business so far.

My job was to fill in the gaps.

Ah.

That must've drove you crazy.

It kept me busy. I like to be busy.

What have you got, partner?

You mind popping your trunk?

Yeah, apparently you have been busy.

You know, I think we should
finish this conversation

down at the station.

Hey.

Rex was on the right track.

The paint on the signs in Mia's trunk

match the sample from Terrance's back.

Looks like Rex remembered the scent

and tracked it to her vehicle.

What are the odds that that same
rare paint ended up in her car?

Very slim. I scoured every
online source for vintage paint

and found no trace of cinnabar red.

- Hmmm.
- But I did find a piece of good news

that puts the real in real estate.

- Jesse.
- Sorry.

Terrance and Mia were not on good terms

- before his death.
- How bad are we talking?

She tried to petition with
the board of directors

to have him ousted from the firm.

I can work with that.

- Lawyer not joining us?
- That won't be necessary.

Oh.

Can you tell me where you were

between the hours of 6:00
and 10:00 p.m. last night?

I had reservations at Domenic's
on Water at 8:30.

- I was there until 11:00.
- Dining alone?

With a local competitor.

You know, keep your friends close,

- your enemies closer.
- Ah, which one was Terrance?

Your board of directors said

that meetings between you and Terrance

could get pretty heated.

We had some healthy disagreements.

Pushing a man out of his own
firm, that sounds unhealthy.

Terrance would funnel money
into developments on a whim.

He may have built that company himself,

but he was on track to destroy it.

- Oh, he didn't listen to you?
- No, he never valued my opinion!

I do all the heavy lifting.

I answer all the calls
he doesn't want to take,

but he always needed to call the shots.

So you had to go higher up.

You went to the board of directors

and maybe, if you could
somehow prove to them

that Terrance was bad for business,
maybe they'd listen to you?

Terrance did not need my
help building a bad rep.

We're an easy target for vandals

with our record of gentrifying.

So those signs that
were in your trunk...

Terrance asked me to take those down!

No one wants to buy into a
neighbourhood that seems hostile!

Okay. Let's say that I believe you.

Then you can tell me

where was the tagging the most frequent?

Uh... Westhaven.

The Juncture.

Cedardale especially.

Near the Indigenous Community Centre?

Yes. I'm overseeing that project.

Those signs need to be
replaced almost daily.

Huh.

Excuse me.

Have either of you seen Kiera?

No?

What have you got?

Look at that. Cinnabar red.

Detective Hudson, I told you last time.

Next time you come around here...

I'd need a warrant.

I think you'll find
everything's in order.

I'm going to need to take this paint.

Why would you want that?

Well, I have a feeling it's going
to match some of the samples

in our investigation.

I'm going to need you to
come down to the station

and make a statement.

I'm going to need to speak
with my lawyer first.

Of course. Rex and I will
be waiting here for you.

Come on, Rex, move!

I don't have time for this!

You're a persistent boy, aren't you?

- Yeah.
- Kiera?

Going somewhere?

Just looking for a little privacy
to make a phone call,

but apparently, your partner
here didn't like that too much.

Yeah, he doesn't like
it when people leave

without saying goodbye.

Why don't you give your lawyer a call?

Tell them to meet us
down at the station.

Kiera, in my experience doing this job,

innocent people don't run.

Really?

Well, in my experience,
innocence isn't something

that seems to matter much around here.

Well, I can assure you it matters to me.

Yeah, well, people like me

can quickly lose control
of the narrative

when it comes you, cops.

Just look what happened to
my dad over 20 years ago.

Okay, yeah, let's look at your dad.

Do you know that the paint

that we found in your studio

is the same type of paint
that your father used

on his victims back in the 90s?

- That's a lie.
- It also matches the paint

we found on Terrance Oswald,

found dead last night.

Not to mention the
Oswald Development signs

- that you defaced.
- That's pure conjecture.

Yeah, I said that's a lie.

This paint is virtually impossible
to get your hands on.

Not to mention matched
with a near 100% certainty.

I'm not talking about the paint!

I'm talking about my father!

He never murdered anyone.

Are you aware of the
nickname they have for him?

You can't imagine how it feels

to see my father reduced to that.

He was a hero who always
stood up for our rights!

You still didn't answer my
questions about the paint.

So what if I vandalized those signs?

- Kiera.
- Vandalism is not murder!

- I did not murder that man.
- That's enough.

Unless you're charging my client,

we're done here.

We have her on a misdemeanour
for vandalism at best.

Then we need to let her go.

Her father being a confirmed
serial killer doesn't factor in?

Some studies have found that
psychopathy could be hereditary,

but they're far from conclusive.

So we stick to the evidence.
What do we know?

I looked into Mia Bailey's alibi.

I mean, she was dining downtown.

Just like she said.

Her record is squeaky clean.

She's worked for Oswald Development
for the past 15 years.

And Kiera?

Well, minor run-ins with
the SJPD in her teen years,

but nothing since then.

Except for the threatening comments

on Oswald Development's social media.

Yeah, yeah. Here.

"@OswaldDevelopment,

you're picking a fight you can't win!"

Try to steal our land
and you'll find out.

What goes around, comes around! #karma

Well, something came around.

Now Terrance Oswald is dead.

Hey. Get out of my chair.

Arlo.

Thanks for meeting me, man.

Hey! Anything I can do to help, Joe.

- Have a seat.
- So...

you've got a tough case
on your hands, huh?

Yeah.

I thought that you had put the
last nail in the Laford Murders

- back in, what, '98?
- Yeah, we did!

Someone's just playing a
Greatest Hits of the SJPD!

Hey, look, I know it's not easy.

The Laford Murders really shook
up this precinct back then.

Actually, tell me, do you happen
to have your old notes?

I have to check. You know,
after I got transferred to Fraud,

I lost track of some of the old files,

but, you know, I'll look into it.

I appreciate it.

Also, what do you remember
about Kiera Laford?

The Mad Mick-macks daughter, huh?

- Duane Laford's daughter, yes.
- Yeah.

Yeah. I remember seeing her hanging
around the station, you know.

Her mother would drag her along

when she had those sit-in protests.

Kiera...

she was quiet.

That's what I remember.

You think she had something
to do with this?

I'm not sure yet.

Chin up.

Don't worry, you'll get them
before the next stiff drops, huh?

- You're too good a cop.
- Well...

Hey.

Ah, another coffee?

Yeah, I fell down the
rabbit hole last night.

I started researching Indigenous
land claims near St. John's,

- and before I knew it, it was 4:00 a.m.
- Here's a wake-up call.

I managed to track down the restaurant

that Terrance was dining
at before he died.

Excuse me. We tracked it.

- We. That's what I meant.
- How did we figure this out?

We got the autopsy report.

There was a half digested steak

in his stomach with distinct
marbling. Kobe beef.

That's an expensive cut.

Only a few places in town
that would serve that.

Three, to be exact.

Turns out Terrance had a reservation
at Sutherland's for 8:30.

And the maître d' said
he made a very vocal call

- from their front desk landline.
- Right.

No cell phone. He would have
had to use the landline.

I shudder at the thought.

I got the audio from the security
camera near the front desk.

I'm down on Water Street
for dinner right now,

and I just happened to see
you walking into Domenic's

with our main competitor!

I am not putting up with this, Mia!

I don't give second chances!

Turns out Terrance was
dining with his lawyer.

And he confirmed that they were meeting

to discuss ousting Mia from the firm.

And that's motive.

Let's bring Mia in, partner.

Hi! You've reached Mia Bailey

at Oswald Development.

I'm not able to answer your call,

but please leave your name, number

and a brief message at the tone.

They've killed Mia Bailed.

History repeats itself.

Looks like we really do have
a serial killer on our hands.

Anything that can tell us
if it's the same person

that killed Terrance? I mean,
aside from the big red X?

It's the same calibre bullet,

and the paint looks
like cinnabar red again,

but we won't know until we test it.

Someone really is following
in Duane's footsteps.

Two victims. We need to stay
one step ahead of them.

I might have an idea, actually.

We found this lone file
in the passenger seat.

This was the development that
Kiera Laford was trying to stop.

Check the front page
for the listing agents.

- Terrance and Mia. Both dead.
- There's another name.

This is why I walked away.

I knew real estate was ruthless,

but this is ridiculous.

Why was your name on
the townhouse project?

No, it's not anymore.

That was supposed to
be my first big project

for my dad's company,

but it's turned into an ugly mess.

It's one of the reasons I left
to start my own business.

What was so ugly about it?

Well, when Kiera found
out about the project,

I agreed to sit down with her

and we could discuss removing
one small parcel from our deal.

But she used that information
to block our deal with the city

delaying the entire project.

That sounds expensive.

Yeah, totally threw off our
projected fourth quarter profits.

To my dad that went beyond
business. That was personal.

Do you remember anything about
those conversations with Kiera?

She started off cordial,
but she got aggressive fast.

Do I need to be worried here?

I think you'll be fine
if you just stay in the house

and keep the doors locked

- until we figure out what's going on.
- Oh, my God.

Is she coming after me next?

Hey, don't jump to any conclusions.

We don't know exactly
who's behind this yet.

I hope it's not Kiera.

From what I've seen,

she does whatever it takes
to get what she wants.

Please tell me you found something
in Arlo's old case files.

I looked into the forensics
on Duane's suicide,

and I can't find a shred
of paperwork on it.

Yeah, and I can't find any record
of any witness testimony

that puts Duane at the
scene of the crime.

I couldn't even find a witness name

until I did find this listing

in the evidence lock-up.

Terrance Oswald?

So our first victim was
their lead witness

back in '98?

Yeah, but you just talked to Arlo.

Would he not have said
something about it?

Ahh, this is funny, Joe.

Back in the day, it used to
be me calling you in here.

I'm sure you heard the news.

That your killer's two-for-two? Yeah.

Any luck finding those old notes, Arlo?

I'm sorry, Joe, but no luck.

Because there's only
so much we can glean

from those old case files.

Well, I'm here, hmm?

What do you need to know?

Okay.

How the witness testimony
place Duane at the scene?

Uh, you know, Duane was
driving an old beater truck,

and we found a guy who placed
it at the first crime scene.

Doesn't it concern you that your
eyewitness is our first victim?

Uh...

It slipped my mind.

Hmm.

According to the evidence logs,

you accessed the case files

exactly one month after
the case was solved.

Well, you know, you've got to
cross your T's and dot your I's.

- You know that.
- If you're so concerned with details,

why is the witness statement

and the forensic data on
Duane's death missing?

Why are you suddenly all concerned

about this Mad Mick-mack?

- Stop using that name.
- Come on, huh?

Enough with the PC crap.

It's just you and me talking here.

We no longer accept that kind
of language in this unit.

Yeah.

We are going to keep digging, Arlo,

so just tell us what
we're going to find.

My advice?

You stick to the present and
you leave the past alone.

I was ultimately able to find

the bullet trajectory report
from Duane's suicide in '98.

I compared it with the autopsy report

and I went over it again and again,

but something wasn't done right.

So, if it was a suicide,

the stipplings would
be spread like this.

Because for the bullet's angle,

Duane had to be holding the gun here.

In the autopsy report

there are no stipplings on his body.

Which would mean that the
gunshot that killed him

would have had to have been
at least six feet away.

So you're saying Duane
didn't die by suicide?

Is it possible that he is not the killer

but the fourth victim?

Which means the real killer
could still be out there.

Jesse, any luck finding
those missing documents?

I did find this. May I?

Thank you. Okay.

- Here we go.
- Can you state your name

- for the record?
- Terrance Oswald.

Mr. Oswald, can you take
us through your experience

the night of October 22nd?

I left the bar around 9:30. Walked east.

I heard a truck backfire. I looked up,

I saw a brown pick-up

heading west in a hurry.

You sure about the time?
You're sure it wasn't a little later?

Yeah, I meant 11:30.
You know, I misspoke.

Okay, there's a big difference

between 9:30 and 11:30.

Jesse, go back to the moment

- where Rex barked.
- Sure.

Rex can hear high
pitched unusual sounds.

- There's definitely something there.
- Okay.

You sure about the time?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's right.

There's a spike in
the levels right here.

I looked up, I saw a brown pick-up

heading west in a hurry.

You sure about the time?

You're sure it wasn't a little...?

The tape was stopped for a second!

Arlo was guiding the witness.

Is this just shoddy police work?

Or is this a cover up?

We may never find out.

Arlo's been shot.

He might not make it.

He was found in his yard
with a red X on his back.

- What's Arlo's status?
- His vitals were holding steady

when he arrived at the hospital.

Paramedics say if they were
there a few minutes later,

he'd be gone.

And as of now, Kiera's our best suspect

and patrol is bringing her in.

- I'd like to hear her alibi.
- Yeah, about that...

The squad car just called in.

Kiera's gone missing.

Dr. Langmear, please call the pharmacy.

Dr. Langmear, call the pharmacy.

You're lucky to be alive.

Who says running the Fraud Department

doesn't have its risks, huh?

Did you see who shot you?

My back was turned.

Arlo, we've got a killer on the loose.

What are you keeping from us?

It's as clear as day.

Duane's suicide was
an admission of guilt.

No. My team ran the ballistics.

Duane's wounds were not self-inflicted.

And why did you guide
the witness statements?

Terrance mixed up some of the
info he initially shared with us.

I just nudged him back on track.

Cops don't nudge.

To get a guy like Duane? Come on.

Hold on. What do that mean?

Oh, here we go.

No, what do you mean a guy like Duane?

Would you have treated him
differently if he was white?

Ahhhhh, blaahhhh. Blahhh, blahhh.

Do you know how much pressure we
were under to close that case?

And don't you forget

you were as excited as anyone
when we found him dead. Huh?

When Duane was dead,
the murders stopped.

Except they didn't.

Yeah, thanks, Joe. Keep us posted.

- Any news?
- We're still in the dark.

Hey, pal.

Is that a microphone?

Shhhh.

Okay, yeah.

Joe said there's nothing
more for us to do tonight,

so you might as well pack up.

Okay. Thank God. I'm beat.

Gimme!

Charlie!

I need to check in with Sarah.
You want to watch Rex for me?

- Huh?
- Yeah!

Um...

Rex, you just sit on your perch.

I'll bring you some water!

Yeah?

How's the water?

Yeah, it's okay.

It's okay, bud. I'll get you more.

SJPD!

SJPD! Hands up!

Kiera?

Hands up, now!

Ughhh!!

Easy.

Are you okay?

Here.

Ah!

It's Andrew!

Thanks for coming to
the rescue, Detective.

Drop your weapon.

- Kick it over here, Detective.
- Just...

Yeah.

You're early.

I guess I'm going to have to improvise.

You know, my friend told me

that psychopathy can be hereditary.

I guess she was right.

We were just looking
at the wrong family.

Hey.

Your dad,

your father Terrance,
he was the person responsible

for the so-called Laford Murders, huh?

Now that all makes sense!

Terrance killed my dad

and then made him take
the fall for everything!

How long have you known about that, huh?

He told me when I was a boy.

He trusted me with his secret

because he expected me
to build on his legacy.

But when the Cedardale project
started bleeding money,

my dad pinned it on me.

But he knew from the beginning
the community would fight it.

Of course we would.

You nearly cost me everything!

- Hey!
- My dad was making plans

to kick me out of the inheritance.

What's rightfully mine.

I couldn't let you do that to me.

So with my dad out of the way,

you make an easy frame.

All I had to do was steal
one of your paint cans.

The cops couldn't wait
to believe you did it.

You'll be forever known
as a cold-blooded killer.

Just like your father.

Sure, and I understand
why you went after Mia.

She was next in line to
take over the company,

but what about Arlo?

Why would you target him?

I knew if Arlo told you my
father's statement was a fraud,

it would lead back to me eventually.

And I knew you were closing in,

because I planted a mic on your partner.

When I shot Arlo,

I knew it would look like
Kiera was taking revenge

on a bad cop who smeared
her daddy's name.

And it's your own fault for
ruining my business deal.

Everything you have was
built on stolen land

and my family's suffering!

My dad always used to
say, "Take what's yours."

So I took it.

Oh.

I guess you thought about everything.

Uh. Almost everything.

Ughh!

Don't move!

Uhhh!

Thanks, partner.

Thank you, Officer.

The paramedics check you out?

Yeah.

That's good.

Kiera, I'm sorry.

I'm not ready to accept your apology.

I understand that.

I need to say it anyway.

I'm sorry I didn't believe you.

Or your father.

Words are cheap, Detective.

22 years ago,

my father was denied justice.

Were you about to make the same mistake?

You okay?

No, I've been better.

When Rex and I went
over to Andrew's house,

I saw Andrew and Kiera
struggling through the window

and I thought that she was the threat.

Well, she was in the wrong house.

You were just following the evidence.

No.

I made an assumption.

I can't help but wonder if I would
have made a different decision

if she were white.

Every police officer has to worry
about racial profiling, Charlie.

Even me.

Those biases are rooted deep in society.

That's why people of colour are arrested

and incarcerated at a much higher level.

I think I lost sight of that.

I can't make that mistake again.

Our mistakes give us
an opportunity to grow.

The real question is whether
you're willing to put in that work

to make things better.

That's the real challenge.

For all of us.

I think I have a good
idea where to start.

We host a lot of our
workshops over here.

And by the fire over here

we have elders every
Friday to share stories.

I'm happy we were able to help you

meet your fundraising
needs to save this space.

I can understand why you've been
fighting so hard to save it.

Yeah, it's special, isn't it?

This is a meeting place between us

and everyone who was here before.

Like your father.

I saw the statement that
you posted in the media,

and finally the world sees
who my father really was.

Thank you.

I'm glad we got a chance
to set the record straight.

And it doesn't make up for
what we've put you through,

but that's why I'd like to
do more if you'll let me.

More how?

Well, I want to learn more about
the people that I'm paid to protect.

So if there's any volunteer work

that needs to be done
here at the Centre,

Rex and I would love to help out.

Well, we have Indigenous
cultural seminars once a month.

How about we start there?

- I'd like that.
- You know what? Count me in too.

All right.

Well, come on. Let me show
you some of our hiking trails.

Hey, Rex!

Want to go for a hike?

Hey!

- Rex loves hikes.
- Oh, sure.

Yeah, you had him at hike.

Yeah.

What do you say?

Next time on Hudson & Rex...

Who's best in show?

- Glockenspiel. That's who.
- What have we got?

Dog owner competing for a spot
in the upcoming nationals.

- His name is Francis Norton.
- Francis was wealthy.

His entire three million dollar estate

is going to Glockenspiel.

- The dog?
- Rex, take note.

Do you know of anyone that
had issues with Francis?

- No!
- The dog show circuit were his family.

- You and Francis were close?
- I had nothing to do with this.

- Then why did you run?
- I was scared.

- Of getting caught?
- Of being murdered!

Who would have a reason
to put a hit out on you?

Anton, get off the course!
