Announcer: reads words on screen

Coach Peters:
That's what we need-

every night.

A W.

Deller.

Good hard solid
work out there.

[crowds cheering]

Yes!

Deller:Yeah!

Ming!

It is a shame about
that hat trick tonight.

This close, right?

[crowds cheering]

And Luka!

It is good to see you
come as advertised son!

Agghhh!

Ming: Hey- pass!

Yeah, pass pass pass!

Damn!

[horn blowing]

[crowd cheering]

Announcer: St. John's goal!

With six seconds
left in the third!

67!

Luka Sokolov!

Coach Peters: So here
we have the game puck!

Now around here, Luka-

this is a
token of honour.

And tonight-

it is yours.

Teammate: Ooooh!

Thank you Coach.

Coach Peters: You're welcome.

You deserved it.

Right?

[teammates cheer]

Okay.

You guys have a
good time tonight.

There's a list on the
door of who's to be-

at the optional
practice tomorrow.

Okay?

So have a
good time.

But not too much.

Hey Coach.

Oi!

If practice is optional-

how come
there's a list?

Oh I thought you'd
want a chance-

to stop riding
the pine, Clive.

[all laugh]

Okay!

Coach Peters: Alright?

I guess we'll see
you at practice!

Guess I will be!

I'll see you there!

Okay!

Brayden: Welcome, bro.

Thank you.

Ming: Alright,
hey boys, boys!

I just realized
something eh?

We have
yet to give

our new Russian teammate
a proper St. John's hello.

So, who's up for a midnight
hike up Signal Hill, huh?

Yeah!

[all cheer]

Yeah you into it?

I'm into it.

I'm with you!

[laughing and cheering]

[birds chirping]

[Ming groaning]

[dramatic music]

[suspenseful music]

Oh hey Rex!

Time to start working
on your cardio hey?

One of these coffees
might be slowing me down.

[Sarah laughs]

Oh thank you.

I'll take that.

What have we got?

Luka Sokolov, twenty-five.

He's an NHL
first-rounder-

who now plays for
the Ice Pirates.

Apparently, he scored the
game-winning goal last night-

and came up
here to celebrate.

I think that's yours.

Oh.

We got a
murder weapon?

Look I don't even know
if we have a murder.

I mean, it's possible
that he just fell-

and struck his head.

There's a lot
of dried blood.

I won't be able to get
a good look at the wound-

until we get
it cleaned up.

So he's been
here for a while.

-Time of death-

is anywhere between
2:00 and 3:00 a.m.

Find anything on him?

His wallet
had $380 in it.

So likely not
a robbery.

Cell phone's on
its way to Jesse.

[Rex barks]

Hold on Rex.

They just need a
few more minutes.

Who called it in?

Thomas Ming.

I'll take it
from here.

So Thomas Ming-

what were you
doing here last night?

Well this hike is my
team-bonding go-to.

Great way for
out-of-towners-

to connect
with the Rock.

Uh-huh.

That always include vodka?

No.

The vodka
was Luka's idea.

But I'm the captain.

It's my responsibility.

When is the last
time you saw Luka?

Around 1:00.

He with anyone?

Yeah, a
bunch of us.

Get specific.

Yeah, there was like-

maybe like
five of us-

besides me and Luka.

Okay, and what-

you were just
up here-

enjoying the view?

-No, we were talking.

Passing the bottle around.

Everyone tried to
keep up with Luka.

That was a mistake.

Anything else?

No, nothing I remember.

I came here-

because I
needed to puke.

And then, must have laid
down after and fell asleep.

You notice any
friction between Luka

and any of your
other teammates?

No, why would
there be friction?

Luka just got here.

None of us
even knew him.

I thought this
was an accident.

You know
that for sure?

No.

But there were four guys left
who can probably back me up.

I thought you said
there was five.

Yeah five.

I don't know.

I just-

It was a long
night okay?

I'd have to
think about it.

I think it
might have been-

yeah it was
five of us.

It was five people
from the team.

And we were
just hanging out.

[Rex sniffing]

[Rex barks]

Pull up your sleeve.

Yeah it looks an awful
lot like blood to me.

-Well it makes sense.

I was trying to revive
Luka before I called 911.

Then why is there
none on your hands-

or your jersey?

You know what?

I'm going to need
you to take that off.

I'm also
going to need

the names of all your
other teammates.

Seriously?

-Yeah seriously.

Come on.

♪♪
[suspenseful music]

Okay so Owen
Blake, Amir Patel,

and Clive Billington

shared an Uber
home at 1:30 am.

The other guy, Jamie
Wagner, walked home.

Leaving Luka
alone with Ming.

-Well I mean-

not completely alone.

There were a couple other
guys according to Clive.

But he couldn't
remember who.

-Well Ming was
the only one

to wake up with
blood on him.

Okay well I'll just-

I'll check with
Owen and Amir-

see if they can
remember who was there.

So that was Isvestia,
the Russian newspaper.

The press has been
calling all morning.

Charlie: I never realized
that Luka was such a star.

Oh, a staris an
understatement.

This guy broke all
of Ovechkin's records-

with Moscow Dynamo
as an 11-year-old.

Charlie: Why isn't
he in the NHL?

Donovan: Well he
was supposed to be.

He was scheduled to be
drafted first overall.

But then rumours
of alcoholism

caused his stock
to take a plummet.

Spent about half a
season in the bigs.

Deemed an epic bust.

I heard he was looking
pretty good last night.

Yeah he was picked
up on waivers.

So he had incentive.

Uh- what are waivers?

Well waivers are when
an NHL team is interested.

So it's an opportunity for
him to get back to the show.

[phone buzzing]

Yeah, that's
the press again.

Good luck.

What are you
thinking Charlie?

Well I don't want to jump
to any conclusions.

But Ming's looking
pretty good.

He's the one that called
it in though right?

What would you do if
you'd killed somebody?

You'd just wait for the police
to get there themselves?

Look, full disclosure.

I um-

I know Ming.

We went to high
school together.

Jesse, why didn't
you lead with that?

I don't know, I didn't
think it was relevant.

[Rex barks]

Are you assuming innocence based
on a personal relationship?

There's no relationship.

I mean I haven't seen
the guy in five years.

Okay.

Well I'm just
letting you know-

to be careful
with this okay?

Follow the evidence.

Well actually, I just
cracked Luka's phone.

Got a text from
his wife at 2:00 am-

saying she'd
pick him up

right around
the time of death.

Is that evidence
enough for you?

[Rex groans]

Venus: I can't
believe Luka's gone.

[Venus crying]

I'm sorry.

But I need to-

find out what happened.

You answered a
text that Luka sent-

at 1:57 am.

Something about
picking him up.

-Um- yes.

I got to Signal Hill
around 2:15.

Found him singing Russian
songs with the captain.

I don't think I've ever
seen Luka so happy.

He apologized and said that
he wanted to stay longer.

He wanted to make friends
with his teammates.

Was anyone else
with them?

One other.

Slim.

Black-

or brown skin.

I've met him
once only.

And I have
forgotten his name.

Did he have any other
identifiable features?

Yes he
had a scar.

Coach Peters: A
scar you say?

Yeah.

-Alright,
let's see here.

They kind of
all have scars.

Oh.

Okay, here we go.

Brayden Deller.

Took a puck above the
brow a couple years back.

Yeah I'm going
to need his number.

Okay, sure.

I doubt he'll get back to you
until after the memorial though.

What memorial?

For Luka.

The boys are going to
want to send him off.

Here.

Walk with me?

Speaking of Luka-

Mm-hmm?

How well did
you know him?

-Well I mean-

I took him and his wife
to dinner a couple of times-

to make sure they
were settling in.

He seemed like
a good man.

Yeah?

You know-
troubled though, but-

How so?

Well-

a lot of these Russian players
come with a bit of baggage-

if you know
what I mean.

You ever see evidence
of this baggage?

Frankly, Detective-

we all have baggage.

But-

nothing serious.

No sir.

Not while I'm here.

I run a
clean ship.

Here, it's for the
love of the sport.

Yeah, there's nothing
to see here, sir.

The team's devastated by
this unfortunate accident.

And that is
what it is.

An accident.

So if you
don't mind-

I've got to
help set up.

You have a good
day, Detective.

We're here
if you need us.

Thanks.

Jesse.

Hey!

It's been too
long, bud!

Yeah, it really has.

Uh, so listen.

Thanks for meeting me.

Yeah.

I'm guessing you heard
about Luka Sokolov.

Yeah, but look.

I really can't
talk about it.

Dude, yeah.

No, totally fair.

I get that.

It's just well-

I knew the cops questioned
some of the guys.

And I just wanted you
to know I didn't do it.

Girl: Pass it
over here!

Girl: Awesome save!

-Now watch this.

Charlie: Hey, Joe.

Any word on the
Sokolov autopsy?

Donovan: Yeah.

Sarah said that
there's a backlog.

So it might take
a couple of days.

Mmmm- I was hoping I'd
have something for tonight.

What- for the memorial?

-Yeah.

How'd you know
about that?

Jesse mentioned
it to me.

He said that Thomas
Ming invited him.

He's not
going, is he?

Thomas Ming
is a suspect.

I advised Jesse
not to attend.

But I left the
decision up to him.

And technically, Thomas Ming
isn't even a person of interest-

until we can come
up with a motive.

Girl: Watch this!

Charlie: Whoah!

[Rex barks]

Whoah!

That was amazing!

You should see him
play basketball.

Girl: Here boy!

Hey!

Good dog!

Ming: He was only
with us a short time.

But he's an Ice
Pirate forever.

Now-

he's lighting
it up in the sky-

where the ice is
always smooth-

and he can pull his filthy
dangles on the angels.

To Luka Sokolov!

Our brother!

[banging stick]

[banging sticks]

You think this is
appropriate, Detective?

They're not kids.

And there's no
good time to ask.

You of all people
should know that.

67 candles.

Same number as
Luka Sokolov's jersey.

The captain thought
of every detail.

Charlie: You know
Thomas Ming?

Enough to know he had nothing
to do with Luka's murder.

Well, I never said
it was a murder.

And what makes you so sure that
Ming had nothing to do with it?

Because he's
a team guy.

A helper.

Always there for a teammate
going through depression-

one torn up by a
parent's divorce-

and another when he
lost a brother to suicide.

Yeah, it still doesn't
mean he didn't do it.

And I'm curious why you know
so much about these kids.

I'm the Zamboni driver.

They're the home team.

We're family by proximity.

So you knew
Luka too?

Hmm?

We exchanged
a few words.

Got to try out
my Russian.

I took it back
in high school.

But I'm rusty.

Did he get along
with everyone?

Oh come on, Winston.

You have an opinion
on everything.

What are you thinking?

That I wish Luka
wore number four.

Wax on ice is
a nightmare.

Brayden: Yeah.

Luka and Ming were singing
when Venus came.

I tried joining.

But Russian drinking
songs are hard.

[Charlie chuckles]

Was there any tension?

-No.

But I was
pretty wasted.

So I grabbed
an Uber home.

Yeah.

Why are you
wearing your jersey?

It's not mine.

It's my brother's.

Right.

The one you
lost to suicide.

Yeah.

I wanted to
wear it tonight-

because well-

it just seemed right.

We know why
you're here.

This is a
tight team.

Word gets around.

So, I'm going to say what
everyone around here believes-

because I know
it for a fact.

Thomas Ming is innocent.

Okay thank you
for your time.

[Rex barks]

[Charlie sighs]

Jesse: I know, I know.

You don't
have to say.

Say what?

-That I shouldn't
have gone.

Hey look.

For what it's worth-

I was going
to skip it, but-

Ming needed a friend.

And an update
on the case.

Look I know what
I can and can't say-

to people involved
in the case Charlie.

Relax, Jesse.

I trust you.

Okay, but for the record,
Thomas Ming has zero motive.

Ah, well think again.

I just did some combing through
Ming's contract on a hunch.

And it turns out that
Luka's last game-

was also Ming's fiftieth.

And Ming had a
rider in his contract-

that paid him a 50
thousand dollar bonus-

for 50 goals
in 50 games.

He had 49 goals.

Charlie: Wait.

Didn't Luka refuse-

to pass to Ming
on his final goal?

Donovan: Exactly.

Which gives
our man Ming-

50 thousand reasons
to commit murder.

♪♪
[ominous music]

♪♪
[dramatic percussion]

♪♪
[suspenseful music]

Ming: Sure.

I was upset that he
didn't pass it to me.

I've got a
mortgage to pay.

And I was
wide open.

But I didn't
kill him.

-Well I mean, nobody's saying
that you did it on purpose.

But maybe you took some
of that anger to the hill.

Maybe the vodka
brought it out.

I had two goals
and an assist.

And Luka was in
on all of them.

Yeah, but he took
your fiftieth.

That's 50 grand.

That's enough
to spark the fuse.

You see, we've confirmed that
your teammate Brayden Deller-

he took an Uber
at 2:28 a.m.

That makes you
the last person-

to see Luka alive.

I'm am not
a killer.

Just ask Jesse.

About that.

When's the last time-

you saw your
good friend Jesse?

-Not sure.

Couple of years?

-He says it's
been five.

Didn't realize
it's been that long.

Okay.

You're free to go.

Don't go too far.

Still waiting on
the full autopsy.

But I did manage to
get some initial findings.

Now, you see that?

-Mm-hmm.

-It's an imperfect
jagged laceration.

It's likely
from a rock.

But it didn't match any of
the terrain at the scene.

So there's another weapon.

That's what I'm thinking.

But Rex already
combed the area.

Okay well-

what if the killer had time to
take it away from the scene?

I mean, even
Rex has limits.

[Rex whines]

But the killer
doesn't know that.

What if we
put out word-

that Rex is doing
a wider search?

The killer might decide
to move the weapon.

And all we need is somebody
who knows the suspect.

[Rex barks]

Ming: Well hey.

At least the detective
made me realize, dude-

it's been five years
since we hung out.

Right?

So what I'm
saying is-

when this
is all over-

we need to
change that.

Yeah.

Yeah, that'd
be really cool.

Really cool.

Hey uh-

thanks for this.

Yeah it's nice not to have to
talk about Luka for a change.

Don't worry.

I promise I won't push
you for any more updates-

or any of
that noise.

I mean, look.

There's not
much to tell.

This will all be over
after the wide search.

The wide search?

Yeah, with Rex-

our K-9 officer.

Yeah, they'll get him to
track the victim's blood.

Then do a
drive around-

just in case the weapon's
hidden away from the scene.

That dog's got
great range.

I tell you.

How crazy are
we talking?

Oh- 50 miles.

Maybe more.

Even when evidence is buried
or hidden under water-

it doesn't
get past him.

It's nuts.

Huh!

Who knew?

Hey?

Oh man.

You know what?

I didn't even
realize the time.

I've got to
get going.

Oh.

Here.

I've got it.

You don't-

Let's do this
again soon yeah?

Alright.

Cheers buddy.

Yeah, you bet.

Take care.

[phone beeps]

Hey um-

He's on the move.

Charlie: Copy that.

Good work, Jesse.

Yeah.

♪♪
[suspenseful music]

Ming: Come on, come on.

Let's go.

Rex.

Find him.

[Rex sniffing]

Track it.

You looking for this?

[Rex barking]

Thanks for leading my partner
straight to the murder weapon.

[Rex barks]

Sarah: I wouldn't
do that.

You might be
able to outrun us.

But you can't
outrun Rex.

[Rex barks]

So why don't you
come out of there?

We'll have a little chat
down at the station.

[Rex barks]

Hmm?

Come on.

♪♪
[suspenseful music]

Sarah: The shape of
the rock is consistent-

with Luka's head wound.

And the blood on
it was a match.

So it looks like the
captain's our guy.

Yeah well we all
know this play.

Alcohol and testosterone
do not mix.

Sarah: Especially when
you add jealousy-

and a loss
of 50 grand.

Charlie: So a fight
must've broken out

after the other
teammates left.

And Ming ended
it with a rock.

He fled the scene to
get rid of the rock.

Came back to
cover his tracks.

Okay, he hid
the weapon, yes.

But it doesn't mean
he did the deed.

[Rex barks]

Charlie: Yeah, technically
that is true Jesse.

But sometimes-

the simplest explanation
is the right one.

No, Jesse's right.

We have to let
him go soon.

We don't have enough
to charge him yet.

Well, yetbeing
the key term.

I'm going to see what
else I can get out of him.

Are you going
to talk to him?

Yeah, why?

Do you mind if
I take a swing?

Hey.

You played me, Jesse.

Okay.

You're the one who
lied about the rock.

So, if you
want to level-

it's a good
time to start.

Okay.

After Brayden left-

me and Luka took a drunk
hike around the hill.

I know the terrain.

It gets pretty ugly.

But he was cocky.

And I wanted
to scare him.

Did it work?

No.

No, he just
kept going on-

about how the hills
were harder in Russia.

So I challenged him to
a race back to the point.

I took a
different route.

Lost track of him.

Got there in
like 20 minutes.

Then you passed out.

Yeah.

I woke up to find
the bloody rock

in my hand-

and Luka's dead
body beside me.

I panicked.

I drove home, tossing
the rock on the way.

But then I realized how
guilty that made me look.

So I went back
and I called 911.

I didn't
do it, Jesse.

Someone must have
planted the rock.

Do you know
that for a fact?

I know I'm
not a killer.

Then you have to give
us another place to look.

Okay, was anyone
else after Luka?

I told you, man.

We barely knew him.

He was in town a few weeks
before his first game.

Actually-

he said he was
meeting someone.

Yeah he was
doing that a lot.

He was always quick to
disappear after practice.

Did he say where
he was going?

We just kind of assumed
he had a girl on the side.

Did you
get a name?

I overheard him speaking Russian
on the phone a couple times.

I don't know.

One call got
really heated.

And he kept mentioning
the name Scarlett.

Autopsy's in.

So our initial findings
were mostly correct.

But there are a couple of
interesting new developments.

So lividity set in the
left of his ribcage.

But the body was
laying on the right.

And nearly 30% of his
blood had been drained.

But there wasn't much
blood at the scene.

So the body
was moved.

We both know
what this means.

There's another crime scene.

Mm-hmm.

This must be the
thatch of bushes.

So, left up
this path.

But this is the route
that Ming took back.

Luka went another way.

There's only so many
ways to the point.

Rex may not be able to
smell blood from 50 miles.

But his range
is pretty good.

-Better than mine,
that's for sure.

Look why didn't he pick up
the second crime scene-

when we were
there before?

Well, this area
is downwind.

That might have
thrown him off.

Plus his nose was
probably overwhelmed

by the blood at the
other crime scene.

Still, he could stand
to cast a wider net, eh?

[Rex barking]

Oh look!

He found something.

♪♪
[ominous music]

-That's blood.

[Rex barks]

Good job pal.

Looks like we
found a winner.

[siren in distance]

Lots of jagged quartzite rocks
similar to the one Ming tossed.

Well, if Ming is
telling the truth-

then our mysterious perp would
have assaulted Luka here-

before he
moved the body.

Well it's plausible.

We found a
few footprints-

most belonging
to Ming or Luka.

But we also found
a partial print

that doesn't
belong to either.

Looks like it was made
around the same time.

You think we can get
anything from it?

I'm having it cast and
sent to Jessie right now.

It's a Newport Megaracer.

Men's size ten.

I mean the good news is
that it's not very common.

The bad news is it's an
80s fashion nightmare.

It's blue-

with a cheesy lightning
bolt running through it.

Well all the
better for us.

Text me a pic.

And I'll follow
up later.

Yeah sure.

-And hey Jesse.

Head home okay?

You've earned
yourself a beer.

[Jesse laughs]

Um- you know what?

I might actually hang.

There's something
I want to check out.

Yeah, you do you.

Girl: Sorry!

Hey here
you go, kid.

Thanks.

Hey mister.

Huh?

We need a goalie.

I'm more of
a defenceman.

What about your dog?

[Rex barks]

Maybe another time.

-Alright, game on!

Coach Peters: Attaboy!
Let's go, let's go!

Skate skate skate!

You call
that a pass?

[whistle blowing]

Ming!

Finish the drill!

Alright boys,
you heard the man!

I want to see
some hustle!

Let's go go go!

What can I
do for you?

I need a favour.

Anything in particular?

Alright come on boys.

Hike them up.

Detective Hudson here wants
to have a look at our shoes!

So we're going
to be good lads.

And we're going
to show him right?

Right!

Okay!

The floor
is yours sir!

[Rex sniffing]

Charlie: Any of you
seen these shoes before?

Hmm?

Take a good look.

No?

No?

Okay.

We're going to find these
one way or another.

So withholding information
doesn't help anybody.

Okay, Coach Peters
has my number-

if any of you should
remember anything.

Clive Billington?

I'd like to have a
word with you please.

Yeah.

Charlie: I know
you were with Luka-

the night he
died on the hill.

I already told the other officer
everything I can remember.

Yeah but you didn't
tell him much.

And we're getting
conflicting reports.

If I'd known there would
have been an accident-

I would have paid
closer attention.

But you know something
about this shoe right?

You sure you've
never seen it before?

Clive!

Answer the question.

I-

Listen man.

You got something to
say to the Detective-

better say it.

Clive: I'm not much
of a fashion guy.

I don't notice
that stuff.

Right.

Clive: Sorry.

Yeah.

Why do I
get a feeling-

that you called a team
meeting after I arrived?

No way.

Then why am I getting
the cold shoulder?

Maybe we're all
sick of the suspicion.

This team's a family.

And no one did anything
to Luka except Luka himself.

♪♪
[suspenseful music]

Charlie: Running shoe
lead was a dead end.

So we're back
to square one.

No, not quite.

Well I'll let
Jesse fill you in.

He did all
the legwork.

Oh yeah okay.

Um-

So-

Ming overheard Luka
talking to a Scarlett.

I found nine Scarletts
in St. John's.

All dead ends.

But-

there is a
Scarlett Club.

So on a whim, I
checked their CCTV.

Sure enough-

Luka's a regular.

Now The Scarlett
Club leases out-

to private companies.

Most frequently-

a Skyhawk Enterprises-

which isn't even
a real company.

It is a front
linked to this man.

Have you heard of
Semion Mogilevich?

Unfortunately, yes.

He's Russian mafia.

♪♪
[dramatic music]

It's standard
Russian mafia M.O.

They keep tabs on ex-pats
who are becoming successful.

Charlie: Yeah they squeeze
them for payments-

if they want to keep
their star rising.

And with pro-
hockey contracts-

the players
become a big target.

Donovan: Yeah.

You know, Alexander
Mogilny, Pavel Bure-

Artemi Panarin.

These guys have all had run-
ins with the Russian mob.

Of course that
didn't stop Bure

from posting back-to-
back 60-goal seasons.

I mean that guy-

was a monster.

Donovan: Yeah.

But suffice
it to say-

these guys use old-school
Russian intimidation tactics.

So for those who can't
or aren't willing to pay-

they make
them disappear.

Well that might explain
why nobody's speaking up-

on the case.

Except with the mob-

I mean, why make
the death ambiguous?

Isn't the idea to
send a message?

Donovan: Either way, we
shouldn't jump to conclusions

until we can confirm
Luka's involvement.

Maybe it's time I pay
his wife another visit.

[Rex barks]

Yes he did owe
the mob money.

But they wouldn't
hurt him over that.

I made sure the
debt was paid.

Well then, what was your husband
doing at the Scarlett Club?

Luka knew how to find the
Russian clubs in every city.

And whatever he was doing,
I prefer not to know.

I thought you two
were soul-mates.

-That doesn't mean-

we didn't have problems.

I pack up my life
to follow Luka-

to make a nice
home for us.

He was supposed
to be a millionaire.

But instead-

I pay all
the debt-

while he wastes money
on gambling and booze.

Ah that must've
made you angry.

Are you saying
I'd hurt my husband?

I loved him.

Although he didn't
make it easy.

You ever see someone-

wearing these
shoes before?

No.

You're sure?

Yes.

Is that it?

Thanks for your time.

Rex.

[Rex yelps]

[Rex sniffing]

[Rex barks]

Ah.

You a smoker?

I had quit.

I bought a pack-

when Luka died.

Stress will do that.

Come on pal.

Jesse: She's lying.

Charlie: Hmm?

I found a social
media post-

where Venus listed smoking
as one of the four things

that she would
never do-

along with
getting a tattoo,

sky diving, and jazzercize.

Which means she's
hiding something.

Or, someone.

Someone in the
Russian mob?

She claims that Luka's
debts have been paid in full.

But she may be
lying about that too.

Well, she's not lying
about her money troubles.

I dug into the Sokolov's
financial situation.

and they are
deep in debt.

Luka's was paid his
salary in advance.

And they were struggling.

I mean, is that
motive for Venus?

Well it is if you
factor in this.

New Leaf Insurance.

Venus took out a 500K
insurance policy on Luka-

on Wednesday.

Two days before
Luka was murdered.

That's not
fishy at all.

Except the print that we found
on the scene belongs to a man.

[Rex barks]

Well she could be
working with someone.

Well I guess we just
need to figure out

who our mystery
smoker is.

You know what?

I can help
with that.

Hello?

Charlie: Venus, this is
Detective Hudson calling.

Listen.

We've found the
owner of that shoe.

And I don't think you've
been straight with us.

I'm giving you a chance to
revise your statement.

Do you understand
what that means?

Yes.

And my statement stands.

[phone beeps]

[texting]

[phone ringing]

[computer beeps]

Damn it!

I didn't get it.

Well at least
we've got a voice.

Can you send me
that audio file?

I'll see if anyone at
the arena can I.D. him.

Arena's closed.

-You're here.

-I work here.

-Yeah well we're
working too.

And maybe
you can help.

Have you ever heard
this voice before?

[man speaking in Russian]

Doesn't ring a bell.

That could be anybody.

Yeah anybody speaking Russian.

Come on.

You were brushing up
on the language.

Your ears
would perk up

if you heard that voice
around the arena.

I've got selective hearing.

I know when to tune
out for my own good.

Yeah like when the
Russian mafia is involved?

Hockey's a rough sport.

I'll take that
as a yes.

How wrapped up
are you with them?

Are you suggesting-

I had something to do
with the kid's death?

Well you know-

the mob is a
tricky thing.

You hear the wrong thing
in the right language-

then all
of a sudden-

you're asked
to do a favour.

Detective, I would never
do something like that.

These players are
like family to me.

Okay then help me
find this killer.

Nobody's going to
know that we talked.

But they will.

Some people can
sniff out a rat

better than even your
partner's nose could.

At least let us
poke around a bit?

Come on!

I'm going to go
spread the snow dump.

What you do is none
of my business.

Yeah.

the garbage?

What the-?

♪♪
[dramatic music]

[Rex barks]

Ughh!

[Rex barking]

[Coach Peters speaking Russian]

Rex doesn't speak Russian.

Come on.

[Rex barks]

Okay okay!

You shouldn't have
run, Mr. Peters.

Or should I say,
Andrei Petrov?

Born in Volgograd.

Moved here at 23.

You must have worked hard
to get rid of that accent.

But in the 90s-

you were in Budapest
working for the Russian mob.

I took a summer job to try to
help my mother make ends meet.

I had no idea what kind of
people I was working for.

And yet you moved to Canada
to continue their work.

No, no.

I came here
to escape them.

I've been in hiding
ever since.

And I have done everything
in my power to avoid them.

Including getting
rid of Luka?

No!

You knew that he was getting
tied up with the mob.

Maybe he'd
blow your cover.

I was trying
to protect him.

And Venus too, right?

-Yes.

Yes, she came
to me for counsel.

Luka was getting out of
control with his drinking-

and his gambling.

Mm-hmm.

And somewhere along
the way you fell for her.

Yes I did.

Yes I did.

And I'm not
proud of it.

Look, I don't know how
much debt Luka rang up.

But I know what it's like
to be in the mob's grip.

And I was trying to
save him from that.

You know the people
that run the place?

-Not by name.

Only by reputation.

And that is
enough to know

that they could be
behind Luka's death.

What happened that night?

Venus came to me in the
middle of the night crying.

Saying Luka was up to
his old tricks again.

She said that he texted her
to come and pick him up.

And when
she got there-

he was drunk.

He became verbally abusive.

Vodka used to bring
out the worst in Luka.

How'd the blood
get on your shoes?

She sent me up there
to bring him home.

What time was that?

-I'd say-

around 5:30.

I didn't find him.

I found blood.

And that's the Russian
mafia's signature move.

They just make
people disappear.

So you didn't
see Luka?

I only saw blood.

And I stopped looking.

Venus has paid
Luka's debt.

But who knows what new
debts Luka has racked up-

at the Scarlett Club?

Let's say that
you're right.

Why would the Russian mob
want to frame the team captain?

That's a question
I've been asking myself.

Brayden Deller.

Can I have
a word?

If this is about
Coach Peters-

I had no idea
he was Russian.

No no.

It's not about that.

It's just a follow-up from
the night that Luka died.

Luka's wife-

initially she told me-

that Luka and Ming were
singing Russian songs-

when she went
to go pick him up.

I found out
she was lying.

That's weird.

-Yeah, what's
even weirder is-

you corroborated that lie.

Any particular reason?

I was pretty wasted.

Guess my memory's
a little fuzzy.

You know, it's just-

it's an oddly detailed
story to go along with.

It's like you wanted me
to stop asking questions.

I just want to
know the truth.

That night-

Ming really tried to
get into Luka's head.

Drinking contests.

Making fun of him.

All kinds of
verbal abuse.

Nobody said anything?

You don't know Ming.

Once he gets started-

he's hard to stop.

And he wanted to
teach him a lesson-

about not
making that pass.

So Venus was
there that night.

What happened
after she left?

Ming challenged Luka
to take the cliff trail.

They were both hammered.

I knew it
was stupid.

I tried to
stop them.

I told Ming to text
me once they made it.

But he never did.

So I biked back.

I wasn't even sure I
was going the right way.

But then I
found him.

Our best player, dead.

He must have slipped
and hit his head.

Help! Help!

I tried to
revive him.

But I was
too late.

Ming pushed him too hard,
like he does with everyone!

And I couldn't let him
get away with it again!

Does this have anything
to do with your brother?

Tyler wanted to
quit back in Bantam.

He had too
small a frame-

and kept getting
concussions.

But Ming refused
to let him quit.

But those concussions
started taking a toll.

They changed him!

Tyler was shy and goofy
and full of life.

But he started having mood
swings, getting depressed.

And then one day
my little brother-

You blame the captain
for your brother's suicide.

Yeah.

And seeing Ming
drive Luka to oblivion-

just like he
did with Tyler-

I just snapped.

Ming never once admitted what he
had to do with Tyler's death.

The idea of that
happening again-

So I picked up the
bloodiest rock I could find

and took it
with me.

I carried Luka's body.

And I put it down
next to Ming.

This time he'd be
held accountable.

♪♪
[dramatic percussion]

I know what
I did was wrong.

That's why I walked it back
the next day when you asked me.

And that's why you wore
your brother's jersey.

Because yours was
covered in blood.

No.

I would've worn my
brother's jersey anyway.

Yeah.

So I just spoke
with the RCMP.

They said he Scarlett Club
should be shut down

by the end
of the week.

And you think that'll drive the
Russian mob out of St. John's?

I doubt it.

They'll probably
spring up at a new HQ.

Like Whack-a-Mole.

Well exactly Jesse.

But that's our job-

is to just keep bringing
down the hammer.

Charlie.

What's the verdict?

Well, Deller and Coach Peters
are both going to be charged

with obstruction of justice.

But their sentences
are likely to be light.

Well they're lucky they
got a judge with a heart.

Charlie: Yeah, well
Coach Peters helping us

corner the Russian mafia
definitely helped.

And Deller's probably going
to get community service

instead of jail time.

Well let me talk to my contacts
at the Suicide Distress Centre.

See if his
service can be-

talking to students
about his brother's story.

Mm-hmm.

Donovan: Good work.

Jesse: But hey,
I mean-

you're off the hook.

Yeah, thanks buddy.

For sticking by me.

You don't seem
happy about it.

I just thought that pushing
my teammates would make me-

a good captain.

I never realized the
harm I was doing.

I mean-

it's not too late
to change.

Yeah but that won't
bring back Luka or Tyler.

They'd still be alive
if it wasn't for me.

Look remember-

remember how I said
that you helped me too?

You were the one that convinced
me to apply to the SJPD.

You know, I
didn't want to.

But you made me.

And look-

since I've been here, I've
helped crack dozens of cases.

And I've even
saved a few lives.

So-

that wouldn't have happened
if it weren't for you.

I think you and
Deller need to talk.

Ming: I know.

But I don't think
I can do it alone.
