hunting for the treasure.

So Nolan was right.

I'm sorry, if you say that
again, I can record it.

People actually think that
this will lead them

to buried treasure?

Yes, because Stuart Packer
claims to be the author.

Why does that name
sound familiar?

He pulled the Joseph & Wells
robbery back in '03.

Ronnie Wick was
the lead detective.

I was there when they brought
Stuart in, the little snot.

He wouldn't tell us where
he hid the gold coins.

Gold coins?

We never recovered the coins.

of people climbing

diving into Echo Park Lake.

Alright, we need
to find this gold

and to end the chaos
as quickly as possible.

Now, Chen, you deciphered
the first clue.

How'd you do it?

Well, i-it -- it first clicked
when I realized that

"angle" could mean
"fishhook."

The pier is
a favorite fishing point,

and fisherman are also
called anglers.

Don't let him shame you.
That was a great catch.

Thank you, Jerry.Okay.

What about the rest
of the stanza?

Uh, "Next find the lens
thru which you'll spy

the West Coast's
greatest view."

I mean, the lens is obviously
the viewfinder at the pier.

Yes, and, uh, um,
this next line,

"The fee you pay," refers to
the fee of the viewfinder,

which is 75 cents,

so we just need to change 75
into a-a year.

But what century?
That could be 1775 --

It's 1975.
It's the Year of the Rabbit.

Call me a nerd.
I dare you.

Well, uh, the poem states,
"The fee you pay becomes

the year of Rabbit
minus two,"

so 1975 minus 2 is 1973.

Okay, okay, okay.

What does it mean?

1973 could be
the combination of a safe,

uh, the number of
a storage locker.

Uh, it's not
gonna make sense

until we solve
the second stanza.

The third stanza
says that,

once we put
those two clues together,

we will find the gold.

Harper and Chen, I'm putting you

The facts are that he was

don't they?

"The husband
always did it."

across the street.

Marcus is

for a stretch,

he keeps an eye on
my place --

waters my plants,
eats all my ice cream.

Okay,
that happened one time

and I will never
hear the end of it.

He ran off to Nevada
over the summer

for, like, two weeks.

He left his fridge full
of chocolate mint fudge.

What am I supposed to do?

That sounds like
extenuating circumstances.

I'm sorry. I don't think
a jury would convict.

Hey, you're low on ice.

Uh, there's more in

I'll go grab it.
