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.

I come there, okay?
Ah, me like to hear you say-
there going to be a next time.

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 long-standing 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?
[crying] 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-
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 start-up 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 anyone 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 self-park 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.
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.
Ah-ha-hah!
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 C-note.
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!
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.
Thank you.
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
non-stop 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
resumes 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 long-standing 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?
[crying] 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-
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 start-up 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 anyone 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 self-park 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.
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.
Ah-ha-hah!
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 C-note.
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!
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.
Thank you.
