Whoah!

That sounds like gunfire!

Everybody! Into the water! Now!!

Take shelter behind the boat!

Everybody okay?

- Boone?
- Yeah!

- Cash?
- I'm okay!

- Damon?
- Me too!

- Niko?
- Niko! Where's Niko!

Niko!

Oh my God, Niko!

They shot Niko! They shot Niko!

- Niko!
- Guys, hustle hustle!

Get his head above water!

- Synced and corrected by chamallow -

Let's go, partner.

- What do we know?
- We've got two shots fired from the north side.

Target was the Men's
Coxed Four rowing team.

Their cockswain is dead.

We've got a suspected
sniper on the loose.

He can't be far. Based
on eyewitness testimony,

two shots came from the north bank

according to three
witnesses on the south bank.

Yeah, the sniper shot at 5:30 AM.
The grounds keeper called it in.

Night patrols were already present

on the road in either direction.

We have patrol units set up

here, here, and here, with
checkpoints surrounding the area.

So he's boxed in.

Yeah, so we hope.

Here, take this.

Don't worry. It's just a precaution.

We've got the SWAT team moving in.

They're going to sweep the
area starting at the water

and moving up the hill.

What I want you and Rex to do

is follow in behind them and see if Rex

can pick up a trace of gunpowder.

Maybe he can also find
the trail from there.

I'll drop you a pin of the
approximate sniper position.

Should be a hundred metres up the path.

But you cannot move in until
SWAT deems the area secure.

Sure.

What is wrong with this thing?

That one's not yours.

Ah.

Quite the wakeup call.

Yeah, you're telling me.

Meet...

Niko Fermi. Olympic hopeful in rowing.

He was only 21 years old.

Looks like a direct hit.

Yeah, right to the temple.

Severe cranial damage.
At least it was instant.

Do we have the bullet?

Unfortunately, it's a
straight through-and-through.

It likely went into the lake.

It's hard to give you much
more without a full autopsy.

Only thing I can say is
it's a hell of a shot.

Someone knew what they were doing.

And really wanted this kid dead.

- Everything just happened so fast.
- Yeah.

I know this is difficult, but...

You guys, did you see anyone?

Or hear anyone?

Think hard, guys.

It's important for the detective
to know all the details.

Uh, he gunshots came from the south.

- You're sure?
- Yeah.

We were going east.

And it came from our left.

Well, we have three witnesses

that said that the shots
came from the north side.

But...

you know, adrenaline
can mess with your head.

We're just lucky that Adler's
leadership instincts kicked in.

And stopped the shooter
from taking out any more.

Or it already hit his target.

Why was he in the cox?

Excuse me?

Well, the victim looked like he was

at least two hundred pounds.

Aren't coxes normally lighter?

Our cox is out of
town for the week, sir.

His grandmother died.

Sometimes during practice runs
we put a heavier man in the cox.

It helps build muscle.

Well, who decides who the heavy man is?

Hudson.

- We finished the sweep.
- Yeah?

Get Rex over there while
the scene is still fresh.

Hillside's been secured.

Rex and I are going to go find
where the shots were taken.

But do me a favour.

If your boys think of anything else,

- give me a call?
- Of course.

- Rex.
- You mean shot.

Not shots.

There was only one.

I'm sure of it.

Okay, thanks.

Rex.

Okay, buddy.

Get the scent.

Track it.

What is it, pal?

No, he couldn't have shot from here.

The sniper would have been seen, buddy.

Come on.

Yeah.

I should have known better
than to second-guess you, buddy.

What if that second shot was an echo?

- How do you mean?
- All the witnesses that weren't on the boat

said that they heard two shots.

But from where I'm standing

the echo sounds louder
than the initial sound.

That's not possible.

For acoustic energy to propagate

- it must excite a certain amount.
- Not now, Jesse.

I know it's an auditory illusion.

But it sounds real.

If the witnesses heard
that but focused on the echo

that was coming back at
them from the north shore...

We're looking in the wrong place.

Exactly.

The south side looks pretty wild.

See if anyone lives there.

Maybe they saw something.

Hudson. We've got another witness.

Come on, pal.

Let's go.

Sabrina Cullen?

- Detective Hudson.
- My sister just heard.

Her and Niko were quite close.

I'm sorry you lost your friend.

You were there this morning?

Yeah, I came to the boat
house for my morning run.

What time was this?

Maybe a quarter past five.

Did you notice anything odd?

No, not at all.

Everyone was here.

Who is everyone?

All the rowers.

Niko, Boone, Cash, my brother.

Coach Reid, too.

I understand you heard the gunfire?

Hey.

I thought it was a car backfiring.

But I had my headphones in.

So I just kept running.

Running where?

Same place I run every morning.

On the south bank.

Along the waterline, then
up the trail heading east.

Niko waved as he passed like usual.

Then 30 seconds later I heard the shot.

And I didn't even bother looking back.

You didn't know, Sabrina.

I know this is difficult.

But I need to know
exactly where you were

when the gun was fired.

I was part way through my run.

By the big stump, where
it starts to get steep.

And this is important.

I need you to think very carefully.

Was there one shot or two?

One.

Do you remember where
you heard it come from?

From which direction?

Yeah, from the south.

The south?

- Okay.
- The sister's statement

also contradicts the other witnesses.

She heard the shots coming
from the south side as well?

Yes, but just one shot.

I suspect she was
outside the echo chamber.

That would make her correct.

Speaking of which, there are
people living on the south side.

Well, one person. One dude.

Jerry Auchincloss.

You think you can you
pin me the location?

- Yeah. Done.
- Thanks.

I'm going to check it out with Rex.

Easy, buddy.

I'm sure it'll be nothing.

Rex!

Rex!

Ah!

This is Detective Hudson!

SWAT's going to be
here in a few minutes!

Put your gun down immediately!

Do you understand?

I am done with you boys
trespassing on my land!

Well I'm not one of the boys!

I'm an officer of the law!

If you have an issue,

we can talk about it
in a secure environment!

Shoot that dog and I will shoot you!

Rex!

Ughh!

Rex!

Ughh!!

Stay down!

Come here.

Hey.

Hey.

Be more careful next time, huh?

Wait, hold still.

The bullet only grazed you.

You got very lucky.

Hey, do me a favour?

Next time you decide to
follow your gut, let me know.

You could've gotten yourself killed.

He's right. If it wasn't for Rex...

Yeah, thanks, pal.

Well, our man's in custody.

Hi name is Jerry Auchincloss.

He's a Gulf War vet.

His gun?

A .357 Magnum lever action rifle.

It's perfect for long-range hits.

We suspected the shooter was
high on the hills in the north.

So we assumed from that
trajectory that the bullet

ended up in the water. But if he
was shooting from the south side

and he was lower on the waterline...

The bullet should've ended
up on the north shore.

Rex was trying to tell
me something earlier.

Now I think I know what.

Come on, pal. Show us
where the bullet is.

Alright, partner.

One more time.

Track it.

He's supposed to smell under the water?

He'll find it. The shooting
was only this morning.

If the bullet is here,

Rex should still be able to
pick up traces of gunpowder.

What's he got there?

The sniper's spent bullet.

Good job, partner.

This coffee tastes like
swamp piss. You got any sugar?

You're not in a position
to bargain, Mr. Auchincloss.

And I don't take
kindly to being shot at.

It needs sugar.

Three. Please, I got a sweet tooth.

Why the rowers?

Been here twenty years.

And never had a problem
until them rowers.

Bad enough they disturb
my fishing traps.

But then they took my hat.

Okay. Look, I need you to
identify for me the man you shot.

That's him on the end. Right there.

Wearing all black.

Probably for all the
sneaking around he does.

That damned thief!

- You're sure?
- Affirmative.

Come by this morning for
my hat. 05:45 to the dot.

Can we forget the hat for a minute?

Did you shoot Niko Fermi in the
head today at 5:30 in the morning?

Yes sir.

I was standing there,

in the mud,

smell of rotten fruit everywhere.

I put that sucker in my sites.

I pulled the trigger. Bang!

He dropped like a ragdoll.

I didn't see any mud.

- You're sure that that's what happened?
- Sugar first.

Three.

Please.

Three.

No way this is our guy.

He could have put a
bullet in you, Charlie.

After firing at least five times.

I don't even think he
knew what he was doing.

Well, what does ballistics have to say?

They haven't tied the
bullet to the gun yet.

But they were able to extract
some tissue from the bullet itself.

It was a match to Niko.

See? There you have it.

The guy's got early onset Parkinson's.

You saw his hands. He could
barely hold a cup of coffee.

It was a 300 metre
shot at a moving target.

It is a bit fishy.

It's more than fishy. He
did this in a single shot.

Then he starts talking
about mud and rotten fruit.

It was bone dry today.

I think I know why.

I pulled Mr. Auchincloss's
medical records from the military.

And, turns out he was
discharged from the Gulf War.

Anyone want to guess why?

I'll take PTSD for five hundred.

Bingo. Yeah, he was traumatized
by a kill shot he took

on January 21st, 1991.

Let me guess. It was
during a nerve gas attack?

Two for two! Yeah, how'd you know that?

Discharge from nerve gas

mimics the smell of rotten fruit.

So Jerry's been reliving his
most vivid and horrible day.

He's still military.

- So?
- So military is trained for details.

He thinks the coach stole his hat.

A lead is still a lead, Charlie.

So there was no hat-stealing incident.

No, there was.

Ten years ago.

I was a rower then myself.

It was part of our hazing ritual.

They made me steal his hat

because Jerry drove us nuts back then.

He was always threatening to sue us

for disrupting his fishing traps.

To think he held that
grudge all these years.

Well, assuming he pulled the trigger.

You don't think it was him?

Was there any friction between Niko

and any of the other rowers?

If there was they wouldn't tell me.

You are the coach.

Who was also once a rower.

What happens in the
boat stays in the boat.

Why was Niko in the cox?

Like I told you, for the weight.

You have to understand.

My boys are athletes.

All they care about is being their best.

Niko was an outstanding rower.

Why else would he have
scored that scholarship?

What scholarship?

You know, I don't have
all of those details.

But if I were you, I'd talk
to Heather Whitlock, the Dean.

It's called the Ned Hanlon AFA.

Or Athletic Financial Award.

People like Niko wouldn't
be here otherwise.

What do you mean people like Niko?

Rowing is a rich kid's sport.

Niko grew up in poverty.

Scholarships help
level the playing field.

Did that ever cause any friction?

No.

Students at Heritage care
only about excellence.

Niko was an exceptional rower.

Some groups like to cut
down their tall poppies.

Not at Heritage.

But what if I told you the war vet

might not be behind his murder?

What is it?

It's probably crazy.

Try me.

Niko had a difficult upbringing.

You should speak with
his mother, Greta Fermi.

He was only a boy when it happened.

We were still living in Toronto.

I was working as a hairdresser.

Lorenzo was unemployed.

- Your husband?
- Niko's father.

He said he was taking
shifts as a labourer.

At night, he was gambling.

He put up all of our money and lost.

Found himself on the run from the mafia.

One day,

Niko comes home from school

and finds his father in
the shed, shot in the head.

Both of them. The same way.

This can't be a coincidence.

Mrs. Fermi, I'm sorry that
I have to keep pressing.

But did your son ever have
an issue with gambling?

Yes.

The apple doesn't
fall far from the tree.

But the minute he picked up that oar,

everything changed.

Everything changed.

He swore he was done with the gambling.

To think I believed him.

Do you think that any of this

has to do with why your son got shot?

He said he had a line on some money.

What else could it
have been than gambling?

No mother should have to bury her son.

Training already?

I needed the distraction.

So this is the space where
you guys once engaged in

uh... initiation rituals.

Yeah.

That was before my time.

Huh.

How can I help you, Detective?

Did Niko ever mention gambling?

No.

Why do you ask?

Well, his father was
killed over gambling debt.

It's odd he'd never mention that.

No, I mean Niko only
ever cared about rowing.

What have you got, buddy?

Is that blood?

It's rower hands.

The calluses can get ugly.

Huh.

You're sure you never played cards here?

- I mean, this would make a great gambling den.
- I mean,

boathouse closes at nine.

Only Coach Reid has the keys.

Huh.

Any friction between
Niko and the other rowers?

No, why would there be?

Well, you're upper class. He wasn't.

A rower is a rower.

And Niko was the best of us.

Then how did he end up cockswain?

That was a last minute decision.

Who made the decision?

We flipped. Niko and
Damon's times were similar.

That's interesting.
Because I'm looking here.

And it says that Niko was
consistently the fastest.

While Damon was the slowest.

Hey Damon? Want to wait up?

Rex, go!

He's not a big fan of impromptu jogs.

And neither am I.

Yeah, I'm going to need
to see your fanny pack.

Yeah, you and I are going to
need to have a little talk.

We matched the blood to Niko Fermi.

But then I suppose you
already knew that, huh?

It's not what it looks like.

So you weren't planning to row
out into the middle of the lake

so you could sink the evidence?

Okay.

It is what it looks like.

But it's not what you think.

Then help me to understand

how your best rower ended up in the cox

and you ended up with a
shirt covered in blood.

There's five of us fighting
for four spots on that boat.

It was between Niko and I
to take our turn as weight.

And neither of us wanted to do it.

- Why not?
- Acting as cockswain means

we don't get as much training time.

We need every edge we can get
with speed trials coming up.

So to decide it,

we played Put Up or Throw Up.

Uhh...

First guy to 500 metres
on the rowing machine

makes the other guy do a shot.

You keep going until...

I got the rest.

I regret the entire experience.

Niko was so drunk.

He couldn't even stand.

He face-planted.

And then,

he busted his nose. It
was gushing everywhere.

He was laughing the entire time.

And that's how the
blood got on his shirt.

Yeah.

And all made it for your morning row.

Yeah. With Niko as cox.

That was the deal.

One thing I don't understand
is why hide the evidence?

Well, we didn't.

But then Niko got shot.

I thought it would look
bad with the bloody shirt.

So I took it and I hid it in my dorm.

But Niko was killed on the boat.

There's no need to hide anything.

Why bother?

It just felt like a bad omen.

Something doesn't feel right.

Niko and his mates
partake in a hazing ritual.

And a few hours later,

- a sniper takes him out?
- Yeah. It's hard not to think it's connected.

I'll tell you what I see.

A group of privileged kids
taking out the runt of the litter.

The one who doesn't belong.

Stay with me for a second.

Everyone on that boat
comes from old money,

except for Niko.

For example, I looked
into Damon's family.

Turns out, he's a Fairchild.

They've given over two
million dollars to Heritage U.

You don't think it's mob-related?

No, I doubt the mob would follow Niko

all the way to St. John's.

What's more likely is
they did it themselves.

That's why they put him in cockswain.

It's the spot furthest
away from everyone else.

So they hired a sniper to take him out?

Feels reckless.

And we have no evidence.

Oh, maybe we do. Check it out.

I got into the university's
athletics data site

so I could access the
rowers' training logs.

Turns out they altered the
route that morning only.

Their consistent routine is
to train on the western route.

But that was changed on
the day of the shooting.

So they could row past
Jerry Auchincloss's house.

Take out the poor kid.

And frame a guy who has been a
thorn in their side for years?

Two birds, one stone?

Whose call was it to change the route?

Probably the coach.

Well I think it's time
we rattle his cage.

Mmm.

There was a headwind.

That's funny because we
checked your training logs.

And you've never changed routes

- when there'd been headwinds before.
- Okay.

I'm not sure what you're implying.

- Besides, that was the cockswain's call.
- Yeah, you're the only one

who knew about the history
with Jerry Auchincloss.

- So?
- So, you knew that the authorities would assume

that he was behind the sniper hit.

Okay.

Are you suggesting that
we staged Niko's hit

and framed Mr. Auchincloss?

Yeah, Jerry still thinks
he's in the military.

He claims that you were there at 5:45.

Maybe it wasn't to steal a hat.

But maybe it was to plant a gun

that killed Niko at his house.

Okay, well, this is a university.

And not a gangster movie.

It is an understandable pressure.

A lot of money came from Damon's family.

Oh, this is about money now?

Well, Niko was the better rower.

How else do you explain
how Damon took his spot?

I told you. The boat decides that.

While I wouldn't even
know how to handle a gun

let alone make that kind of shot.

And I was at the docks.

And there are witnesses.

- And you know that.
- Then help me to understand.

No, I'm done helping.

Any further communication with me

will be done through my lawyer.

Alright.

38 minutes.

- You beat me.
- You made the entire trek?

Yeah, all the way from the
sniper position to the boathouse.

What do we know about the
coach's whereabouts this morning?

Well, Adler's sister Sabrina
placed him at the boat house

exactly 15 minutes before the shooting.

Which is too short a window.

So it couldn't have been the coach.

Yeah. Nor anybody in the boat.

If we're right about a conspiracy
between coach and rowers...

There needs to be another player.

Okay, we're missing something.

Okay, well let's try this again.

So it's 5:15.

The rowers are on the water.

And they head east.

Due east.

Now, passing a groundskeeper.

Mm-hmm.

Woman with stroller...

Well, she doesn't
really have a stroller,

and a male jogger.

Okay.

And Adler's sister, Sabrina,

who says that she was just
starting the steep part of the path.

By the big stump where
it starts to get steep.

Where did you get these figurines?

Well, I mean...

And now,

as the boat approaches
Jerry Auchincloss's house.

They hear...

Whoah!

The gunshot from the
sniper position. Right here.

Now, due to the echo chamber

all four witnesses mis-identify
the origin of the sniper hit.

- Three.
- Three?

The sister, Sabrina,

Sabrina says that it
came from the south.

And swears she heard a single shot.

Which is odd, because,

I mean, it looked like she
was inside the echo chamber.

Mmm.

Can you read me her statement again?

Yeah.

Okay. You ask where she ran.

And she responded by saying:

Same place I run every morning.

Along the water. Up
the trail heading east.

Niko waved to me as
they passed like usual.

I heard the gunshot.

But didn't look back.

Niko waved as they passed like usual.

Yet they only altered
the route that morning.

Which makes the sister a liar.

I didn't kill him.

Why am I here? I don't understand.

Why did you lie about where
you were when the rowers passed?

Look, if I got a detail
or two wrong, I'm sorry.

I was worried for my brother.

You're an Olympic hopeful.

Yeah, many of us are.

You specialize in biathlon.

That's the one that combines
skiing with sharp-shooting.

Is that correct?

Yeah, well it was enough for a warrant.

They're searching your room now.

Did you know that gunpowder signatures

can be traced back to the
residue in a gun's barrel?

And you're probably
aware from your training

with high-accuracy rifles

that gunpowder doesn't come
out when it's laundered.

So Rex will still be able to smell it.

I didn't kill him.

So you've said.

I didn't kill him.

I didn't kill him!

I didn't kill him!

- I...
- Yeah, I think you need some new material.

Like, I want to talk to my lawyer.

Looks like we have our shooter.

Rex was right about the
gunpowder he sniffed out.

Yeah, it was on Sabrina's shirt.

And it's definitive. She hadn't
even bothered to launder it.

So Sabrina was the sixth
member of the conspiracy.

The boys corroborated Sabrina's alibi.

And Sabrina corroborated the coach's.

I guess this is over.

I know that look. What's going on?

I hate to be the bearer of bad news.

But this isn't the slam
dunk you're looking for.

Here, I got the autopsy results.

Sabrina wasn't lying when
she said she didn't kill Niko.

Because Niko

was already dead.

So Niko was already dead.

Freaks me out to think about it.

They took their morning
row with a dead man.

And all of them knew it.

Well, at least we know
why he was put in the cox.

So they went past all
those witnesses on purpose.

All so they would verify
that Niko was alive.

It explains the singing.

To draw attention to themselves.

And no one noticed that the
fifth man didn't have a voice.

The whole capsizing of
the boat was just a trick.

- An act.
- A cover-up.

Which means there's a
whole other crime scene.

And I think I have an idea where it is.

I just can't believe
Niko was already dead.

That's a gruesome revelation.

I'm going to need a list of all people

who have keys to the boathouse.

It's a short list. Just
Coach Reid and myself.

When is it shut?

- Nine o'clock sharp.
- Well, guards are easily bribed.

And as we've established,
rowing is a rich man's sport.

I can't see Reid allowing
boys in here to do a hazing.

He's as much against it as I am.

Does this look like
it's been moved to you?

I don't know.

Look at that.

A bullet hole.

They didn't haze Niko.

They shot him.

It wasn't a hazing ritual
that you were covering up.

The blood didn't come from Niko's nose.

It came from a bullet wound in his head.

And we have proof. Damon, right now,

at the very best, you're guilty of

Obstruction of a Police Investigation,

Obstruction of Justice

and Indignity to a Human Body.

And judging by your silence,

I'm guessing that you're the
one that pulled the trigger.

- No!
- He was better than you. And you wanted him out.

- No!
- Then tell me who pulled the trigger!

He pulled the trigger himself!

Everything I told you was true.

We did play Put Up or Throw Up.

Just neither of us wanted to give up.

When did the gun come in?

Somewhere around midnight.
We were both pretty drunk.

Who brought it?

Niko.

He had an idea for a new game.

Something to settle the draw quicker.

Russian Roulette?

I thought everyone was joking.

Everyone seemed so calm about it.

I just assumed it was a fake.

And then everybody started
talking about the rules

like it was actually going to happen.

And what were the rules?

Spin the chamber once.

Point the gun at your head.

And pull the trigger.

Once and only once. To
show your ultimate loyalty.

And you didn't think of quitting?

I beat out thousands of applicants

for twenty spots in this school

all for a shot at the Olympics.

It's all I've ever wanted.

Enough to let a friend die?

I thought he would have given up.

And then he took the gun, and he...

pointed it to his temple.

And I tried to stop him.

I tried to pull the gun
away from his head, but...

everything I touch, I make it worse.

Listen Damon.

What you're talking about
right now is an accident.

Your charges would be relatively minor.

But here's the thing.

You would need to tell me exactly

how all your teammates fit into this.

They're my brothers.

And brothers don't turn on one another.

I know about the Russian Roulette.

Damon told me everything.
You'd be smart to do the same.

Yeah, I don't think so.

You know, they say
silence is akin to guilt.

You want that to go in my report?

You do what you've got to do.

I'll take my chances in the court.

It's better to come
from you than from Damon.

Damon isn't ratting out anybody.

You really want this to go to trial?

No matter how this thing rolls,

I'm going to turn up just fine.

Well, your sister is a different story.

We have her on multiple charges.

Her Olympic dream is over.

And that's on you.

I mean, talk and we can help her.

You wanted Niko out of that boat.

Didn't you?

Hmm?

We did conspire to get
somebody off the boat.

But it wasn't Niko.

It was Damon.

One tenth of second, you know?

That's enough to make a difference

between being nobody or Olympic glory.

So we had to put our best foot forward.

And Damon wasn't your best foot.

He's good.

But the rest of us are great.

Especially Niko.

So when Coach Reid told
us that Damon was a lock...

It meant that one of was going
to be pushed out of the boat.

Right?

Right before speed trials.

We needed to do something.

So you thought that you'd
scare him into stepping down.

It had to be Damon's idea.

So Niko came up with a plan.

Niko? Wait.

This was Niko's idea?

He had the trick gun.

When you spun the cylinder

it always skipped the fourth chamber

which was slightly discoloured.

Plus...

supposedly the bullet was fake anyway.

Then why did it fire?

I don't know.

It doesn't make any sense.

Well, maybe you can
help me make sense of it.

Where did you put that gun?

None of this was my idea.

When my boss tell me Damon
is a lock on the rowing team,

I have to listen.

Well, that lock could have
cost them their Olympic dreams.

You think I don't know that?

I have been with those boys

every single step of the way.

I watched them row
until their hands bled

and their bodies collapsed.

I wanted them to hit the Olympics

even more than they did.

So you came up with a plan.

No.

No, I closed an eye.

And gave them the keys to the boathouse?

They told me that they were going

to scare Damon into stepping down.

I thought this was just
some dumb hazing thing.

But then I get this panicked phone call.

And I show up at the scene.

I love those boys.

I loved Niko.

What happened then?

I couldn't let this accident
destroy the rest of their lives.

So I kicked into protection mode.

I knew a troubled war vet who would

make a perfect fall guy.

But you needed one more.

No, I never would have involved Sabrina.

But Adler had already called her.

She'd do anything for her brother.

So she came. She helped us clean up...

the mess. And we came up with a plan.

♪ Way hay and up she rises ♪

The boys would make their
turn at exactly 5:30 AM

at which point Sabrina
would pull the trigger,

missing wildly.

The theatrics on the
water would be enough

to distract while I ran back
to Jerry's to return the rifle.

By planting the bullet with
Niko's DNA on the other side

we assumed our story would be airtight.

Yeah.

Last question.

Who made the call to
put Damon on the boat?

You have to understand.

Rowing is not like hockey or basketball.

It doesn't generate a lot of income.

It's one of our biggest sports.

In the Olympics.

That's every four years.

And brilliant rowers
don't grow on trees.

It costs hundreds of
thousands of dollars,

which is where families
like Damon's come in.

To help fund the sport.

Which pays for people like Niko.

It's awful to think I may have
indirectly set this tragedy in motion.

Speaking of Niko,

one thing I can't figure out.

Modifying a revolver so that it
would only stop on the fourth chamber,

that's an expensive undertaking.

How would someone like Niko get
his hands on a gun like that?

Maybe through his mob connections.

No, he didn't have any mob connections.

- Then I have no idea.
- I think you do.

See, I did a little bit of digging.

And it turns out, that Damon's family

didn't just donate two million
dollars to the university.

They also paid for his
spot in the program.

An extra half-million dollars.

But it's not just him. There's
dozens of people at this school

who've been given spots
that they don't deserve.

That's a heck of a cash
cow you've got there.

You have no idea what it costs
to fund a place like Heritage.

Yeah, but Heritage never
sees any of the money.

How do you explain that?

I don't have time for this.

I think you'll make time.

Because we traced the serial
numbers of that rigged gun

back to a Montreal gun specialist.

And the payment came
from a numbered account

that belongs to you.

Even more interesting
is Niko was told that

when he spun the cylinder it would
never stop on that fourth chamber,

and that the bullet was fake.

But the bullet was real.

And the gun was rigged to always
stop on the fourth chamber.

Niko told his mom he
had a line on some money.

I think that was you.

Because he found out
you were taking bribes.

He was squeezing you for money.

That's why he had to die.

Are you through, Detective?

Because I think we're done here.

Not quite. Just one last thing to say.

You're under arrest.

Thank you.

Hell of a week.

It's hard to think such a
promising rower like Niko

is gone because of greed.

Well, the world does tilt

to the rich and privileged like Damon.

Well, Damon's as much a
victim as everyone else.

He was devastated when he
found out that his parents

had bought his spot on the team

when more deserving kids were denied.

Sounds like a bunch of talk to me.

It's more than talk.

He's putting up his own money

to help fund the next generation
of rowers in honour of Niko.

He invited us to the unveiling,
actually, and Niko's mom.

I think he even reached out to Jerry.

It's hard to make a regatta from jail.

Actually, Jerry's in a
rehab centre for veterans.

He's back on his meds.
He's doing quite well.

It's nice to hear a
happy ending for once.

We're so lucky no one else got hurt.

Yeah, my bullet wound is healing nicely.

- Thanks for asking.
- Okay.

- I got shot.
- It was a graze.

- What?
- A small graze.

Okay okay. So...

This unveiling.

When is it?

I know it's of little
consolation, Mrs. Fermi.

But at least you know
your son never lied to you.

He never did fall back on gambling.

Actually, it means a lot.

Welcome, everyone.

Thank you all for coming to the kickoff

and the unveiling of a new skull

for a very special program

in honour of a very, very special rower.

Next time on Hudson & Rex...

He was a big shot on the
food and wine circuit.

He was killed in St. Pierre and Miquelon

the French islands off
our coast, this morning.

Detective Valerie Bertrand
reporting for duty.

- His name is...
- Paolo Rose.

You knew him?

I'm a fan.

So I comped his meal and then
he invited me back to his hotel.

The booze on that table is
worth more than your house.

Some of these bottles, they're not real.

And you can tell the difference?

That dog can.

Don't make this harder for yourself!

Rex!
