Previously, on allegiance...

Is this you?

This is me.

I have access
to the assistant crown's laptop.

Copy it.

okay, it's loading.

I saw you and the assistant crown.

You go home with the crown.

The next day, your father's exonerated.

The smallest rumour of us together...

It could send us both to jail.

160 people applied for this position,

And it is down to you
and two other candidates.

This is my brother, Ishaan sohal.

You're working in civilian investigations?

He's good.

We need more drinks!

How much has he had to drink?

Lucky?

Lucky!

Lucky!

Lucky!

Lucky!

9-1-1!

Let's get a doctor.

Then go on and do nothing.

And, so her parents...

They think she's sleeping over
at my house,

And we meet the guys
two blocks from here...

And her mom is there, pissed.

My god.

Aren't you glad.

That the days of sneaking around
are behind you?

I live with my dad and brother...

Maybe they are for you.

While your dad's out of town,

Are you thinking of bringing home, say,

A certain deliciously handsome
assistant crown attorney?

Nate?

Well, he's not not delicious.

It's zak.

Hey.

Yeah. Sure.

What's going on?

I gotta go...

To a wedding.

What do we know?

Attempted murder.

The victim is the groom... lucky Singh.

He was stabbed on the dance floor.

It was crowded, noisy...
no one saw it happen.

No weapon yet.

Uniforms are still searching.

How's he doing?

He's at surrey general,
lost a lot of blood.

His bride, harleen kaur, went with him.

Who was first on scene?

Brambilla, gabinski, and chen.

The hall's been contained,

But it's possible
the suspect's already fled.

Okay. Let's see what the cam's got,

Get it to command.

We're on it.

We're also checking social media posts.

The wedding's hashtag is "hargotlucky".

Hey, I thought it was your day off.

- This guy said he needed me.
- Did I said "needed"?

Well, we got a full guest list
from the wedding planner.

Well, you know that's more of
a suggestion, right?

I'm realizing that, yeah.

So we're doing
all the background checks,

Witness statements.

Everyone's consented
to getting fingerprinted.

Before we send them home.

I mean, it's so tough
to get some solid intel.

The bar's been open since six p.M.

Doing the best we can.

I'm gonna talk to the groom's family.

Can you head to the hospital?

I thought I was supposed
to connect with the community?

Absolutely.

Start with the bride, connect here after.

Sure.

- Nate?
- Hey.

What are you... were you a guest, or...?

Well, my dad and the bride's
are pickleball partners.

Well, I'm sorry. Are you okay?

Yeah. No, I'm okay.

I gave my statement already.

I, I didn't see anything
from my side of the room.

You don't have to stay.

Reena auntie... she's a little shaken up,

So I'm just gonna stick around,
make sure that she's okay.

That's nice of you.

Long shift?

No. It's supposed to be my night off.

I was actually...

On a dinner date.

With Gillian.

Okay.

We'd like to bring you into the precinct.

For a couple more questions, okay?

Is that all right?

Detective?

Hey. You got something?

Attempted murder weapon.

Concealed in the men's washroom.

A cake knife.

We'll get it to forensics.

Anyone could've grabbed this
off the table.

Yeah. So anyone could be a suspect.

Anyone who'd use the men's washroom.

All right. Thanks, guys.

No, I can't think of anyone
who would want to do this.

Lucky makes friends
everywhere he goes.

Were there any uninvited guests,

Or unfamiliar faces
near him when it happened?

No.

What does lucky do for a living?

He owns a restaurant.

Mexican fusion.

He calls it "tapastry". Like tapestry?

That's clever.

It hasn't opened yet.

He has investors on board...

They're just closing financing
before the big launch.

Does he have other business interests?

He had this big bollywood
project in the works.

He was an actor when we first met.

He even went to India a few times,

But it fell through,

So he-he moved on
and found a new dream.

You know, one second,
we were just dancing,

And my friends pulled me away,
and then I...

Thanks. Thanks, go pal.

Hi. Detective sohal.

You were at the wedding?

Yes.

Well, the guests were kept
for questioning.

As soon as the ambulance left,
I jumped in my car.

I didn't think she should be alone.

Can you think of anyone who
might want to hurt your son?

No.

He was really trying
to get his life together.

Starting a business.

What about harleen
and lucky's relationship?

Was there anyone who
wasn't happy about the union?

There was this guy... go pal...

Always hanging around.

She was with him before lucky.

I told my son.

He was trouble.

So... How do you know harleen?

We went on a few dates.
Our parents set us up.

And where were you
when the stabbing happened?

I was in the bathroom.

Did you see anything?

No.

I ran out when I heard all the screaming.

I don't really know lucky,

But I don't hear a lot of great things.

Really? Harleen said the opposite.

She sees what she wants to see.

Lucky? Shady as shit.

He spent most of his life "fun employed".

Well, I heard
he was opening up a restaurant.

Well, at the sangeet,

I saw him arguing with one of
his dad's business partners.

Got pretty heated.

Rahim? Please. Have a seat.

Rahim is a good friend...

A business partner.

He's family.

Did lucky ever confide
in you about anything?

Any kind of... Trouble?

No. No. He's a good kid.

He insisted...

Pay for the wedding.

Our son didn't want a cent from us.

He sounds like a great son.

He's a big talker.

No way that restaurant
was ever gonna open.

Is it cool if I get back to her?

Yeah. Yeah, of course. Thank you.

Hey. Any news on lucky?

Nah. He's still unconscious, but stable.

How's reena auntie?

She's home safe.

I'm just sticking around,

Helping the family pack up a few things.

You know, maybe I could...

Give you a ride home, if you...

Well, I-I drove.

Right. Of course.

But thanks.

- I'll see you later?
- See you soon.

If you'll excuse me just a moment.

Hey.

Back at the hall.

We have a murder weapo.

It was the wedding cake knife,
hidden in the men's washroom.

I just spoke with the bride's ex, go pal.

He says he was in the bathroom
at the time of the stabbing,

And he conveniently got out of here.

Before we locked down the banquet hall.

There's also a family friend...
rahim khan.

He looked very uncomfortable,
discussing lucky.

And, apparently, lucky insisted.

On paying for the wedding himself.

But his restaurant's
not even up and running.

How is he paying for all of this?

Good question.

Sabrina?

Two sets of prints on the knife.

Two hits.

One of them's a server named kapil bedi.

The other belongs to... Rahim khan.

Zak, rahim and a server's prints...

They were both on the cake knife.

Now we're getting somewhere.

Card box... it's gone.

I gotta call reena auntie. Sorry.

Hey, hey. Hey, what's going on?

The card box... envelopes full of cash,

Blessings for the bride and groom...

It's been stolen.

How much cash?

This many people?

You're looking at a 100 "k," easy.

While everyone's distracted
by a knife attack,

Someone goes out of here
with $100,000.

I'm a server.

I handle silverware all day,
I set up the cake table...

Of course, I held the knife.

Okay, and where were you
when the stabbing happened?

Bringing people drinks!

It all happened so fast.

Kapil, are you sure
you don't want a lawyer?

No.

Okay, when did you move to surrey?

A few years ago.

And you're an international student?

On a student visa?

Meaning you're only allowed.

To work a certain number of hours?

And maybe.

The banquet hall's been
letting you exceed those hours?

Please

I'm only concerned about the stabbing.

Lucky didn't pay for this wedding himself.

His parents didn't either.

How much did you loan him?

200,000.

But it was a business loan.

It was for his restaurant.

Yeah, a restaurant that doesn't exist.

How has it been, studying here?

Okay.

Good.

And your family?

In India.

And you send them money?

They send me...

The tuition.

Where do you go to school?

Mna college.

We checked lucky's business application.

It never went through...

But you knew that, didn't you?

I got a call from my business partner.

A few weeks ago,

And then lucky started avoiding me.

I approached him at the sangeet

'cause I wanted to talk...

But he didn't tell you
what you wanted to hear, right?

Then you show up at his wedding,

You see more of your money
being splashed around,

You have a few drinks...

Okay, yeah, but I didn't stab him!

Then what are your prints
doing on that cake knife?

It was gold-plated!

Do you know how much
that thing costs?

I picked it up to look at it,
and I'm thinking,

"how do you have money for that,
but not enough to pay me back?"

So you're angry.

You have a knife in your hand,
you stab him,

And you take the money
that's rightfully yours.

No!

I was the one who told the family.

To put a tracker in the box.

Would I do that if I planned to steal it?

There's a tracker?

Good morning.

Morning.

It is now.

Double-bacon with cheese?

I think you're my favourite person.

I've been going over the footage,

I've been trying to narrow it down.

To the moments just before
and after the attacks.

- Anything good?
- No.

Too noisy, too dark,
too many bodies dancing,

And no one's camera was pointing
the right direction.

Okay. Can you check for any connection.

Between the server kapil bedi.

And the groom's investor, rahim khan?

Okay, but you think
they were both involved?

Yeah, maybe one of them.

Stabbed the groom as a distraction,

And the other grabbed the card box...

The one with the tracker
that's conveniently offline?

I'll call in warrants
for both of their homes.

Vince is headed to kapil's,
to talk to his roommates.

Let me know as soon
as the warrant comes in?

Yeah, you got it.

You're the sucker Svetlana hired.

Aiden.

Hey. Ishaan.

The hacker-slash-coder?

People talk.

Python man, actually.

So, slacktivist keyboard warrior?

Try active military deployment overseas.

Let me guess

"rust" guy?

Ooh!

I live.

Knew there was a reason they hired you.

You mean, beyond data entry?

That's just to warm you up. But no.

They hired us as
overqualified worker-bees,

So once we earn the queen's trust,

She'll transition us to the front lines.

Of something big
going down with the cfpc.

Really?

You gonna spill that tea, or...?

I'm talking about the possible
"future face of policing"...

The great paradigm shift?

Come find me eod and I'll fill you in.

Nice fit, by the way.

Hi. Detective sohal.

We have a warrant
to search the apartment.

Can we come in?

What is this about?

Your roommate, kapil.

Is he okay?

Kapil's fine. He's in our custody.

Puraj.

Straight-"a" student.

"mna college"?

Canada day?

When we first arrived.

Go to English bay to see the fireworks?

Who's that? Is that
another one of your roommates?

Naina. Naina sundal.

Was she working at
the banquet hall last night.

With kapil?

Mind if we, take a picture of this?

Okay.

Where is she now?

She's studying. She starts very early.

She goes to the coffee shop.

Which one?

Stanley's coffee.

It's good coffee.

Hey.

Hey.

No sign of the money at kapil's house,

But a roommate of his, naina sundal,

Was serving last night,
and she's unaccounted for.

Do you recognize her from the footage?

No, she doesn't look familiar,

But I can take a closer look.

Okay. I'll send it to you.

Any luck at rahim's house?

Try "mansion."

No card box,

And only a couple hundred in cash.

He's not lying about not needing it.

Seems like he was just
trying to do lucky a solid,

And didn't realize he was a bad bet.

I wasn't able to track any connection.

Between the two suspects,

Aside from them both being
at the wedding last night.

There! There. Stop.

That's her.

Naina wasn't processed
by any of the uniforms on scene.

She must've slipped out.

In the ten minutes before we got there.

- With a box of cash?
- Maybe.

Okay.

The missing ten minutes... Hang on.

There she is.

And... She's got a backpack.

We need to find naina.

Vince? Tell me you found her.

She wasn't at stanley's...

But I did secure a dark roast.

One milk, one cream?

No one to pick it up for me anymore.

Sohal? We're on the move.

What is it?

Tracker's online.

It's at the banquet hall,
nine blocks from here.

Vince, get there fast.

On my way! Not far.

The tracker's offline again.

How far out are you?

Two minutes.

Gun it!

The cash is about to walk out the door.

I'm getting floor plans.

I'll check upstairs.

I'll take the back.

No.

Both halls are clear.

She's not out here.

Naina.

My name is Sabrina.

I am not going to hurt you.

Naina!

Naina! Naina!

Stop!

Stop!

She's outside!

Naina!

She's gone.

Cctv has her heading north,

Past the banquet hall parking lot,

On foot, but then we lose her.

- No luck with her phone?
- No.

It's either turned off or an older model...

No gps.

Hey, you've got the card box?

Yeah. She hid it in the ice machine.

Right!

Tracker wouldn't transmit
through industrial steel.

And she left nearly $80,000
in there when she ran.

You see any connection
between naina and the stabbing?

You said he lives
in a cramped basement,

Studies all day,
works weddings every night.

He is constantly surrounded
by people flaunting jewelry,

Money being tossed around.

That would be hard to watch.

And so what's the harm in taking a little.

Back for himself?

You know, maybe he and naina
came up with a plan.

Maybe the other roommate's in on it, too.

Cause a distraction on the dance floor,

And grabbing a cake knife.

Doesn't really feel premeditated.

I think we need to split
the stabbing from the theft.

They came here.

With their family's dreams
on their shoulders.

Why risk their visa, jail time,

For just enough to maybe cover
a year of living expenses,

Split three ways?

You know, I've lived here my whole life.

I've never heard of mna college.

Seems like your basic private college...

Mostly international students.

Where is that?

Is that even in surrey?

Gotcha!

Stock photos.

That's a college in Massachusetts.

Scam schools...
it's a fast-growing enterprise.

Fraud's starting
a province-wide crackdown.

These are massive
international operations...

Millions in profit a year.

You saying mna's a front?

We've heard about intimidating students,

Falsifying travel documents...

Extortion?

Innovation, culture.

In Canada, any dream
is possible with hard work.

That's lucky.

Mna college...

That's how you know lucky.

What happened at mna college, kapil?

There's evidence
linking you to the crime.

Connection to the victim...

Or hey.

Maybe you're just the kind of guy.

Who likes to go around stabbing people.

I got an acceptance letter
in the mail from sf...

My family was so happy.

They saved up.

Then, when I arrived,

A-and he said that there was a mistake...

I-I didn't get into sfu

I had been... "wait-listed."

But-but he said it's okay,

There were hardly any classes.

They kept demanding more money!

What was I supposed to do?

Going home wasn't an option.

No! Go home, and tell my family what?

That all their money was wasted?

I couldn't.

I mean, going through all that,

And feeling like
you couldn't tell your family...

A few weeks ago,

I couldn't take it anymore.

So I told them the truth.

They told me not to bother coming home.

But I don't blame them.

All their money...

What do you want with a son like that?

Kapil...

When you saw lucky at the wedding,

What happened?

I didn't recognize him at first.

I couldn't believe it.

That was him.

My recruiter, on the dance floor...

Just laughing, drinking,

Like-like a king.

I just wanted to ask him why,

And he looked at me like I was nothing.

He said,

"you wanted to come to Canada...

You're in Canada!

Be grateful."

The cake table... it was right there.

I didn't think.

I did it. I stabbed him.

Kapil...

What about the money?

The wedding money naina stole,
from the card box...

Was it for the school?

No. Naina wouldn't...

She did,

Kapil, can you think of where.

W-we used to make the tuition
payments at the school.

Vince? Naina may be heading
to mna with the money.

Copy. We'll head over right now.

I'm sorry.

For what?

You should've had a chance
at your dream.

Kapil, we recommend.

I'll try naina again.

That "bollywood gig"
that harleen mentioned,

The one that kept taking lucky overseas,

Yeah.

I was really hoping
that naina would trust me.

Why?

Because you're brown?

No, because I can relate to her.

I was seven when my family immigrated.

I got here thinking I'd have just as many,

But no one wanted to talk to me.

Funny accent, didn't know the customs.

I didn't come here
knowing I didn't belong...

And so did these students,

the school seemed okay at first.

I didn't really know it wasn't normal.

Then they said I didn't pay my tuition,

Even though my parents
sent them the money.

They drove me to an atm,
made me pay cash.

The cost went up each semester.

Looks like they left in a hurry.

The mna classes were useless.

We audited classes at sfu
when we had time.

We even did the assignments.

And what about naina?

Naina really believed.

We were all afraid to tell the truth.

So the money she stole,
that was for the school?

In the commotion,
she saw an opportunity,

She took the box and she ran.

Did you know?

Puraj, did naina come home
and tell you what she did?

Naina said she could cover all of us,

If she could go back into the banquet hall.

As soon as it opened.

Then, she left, to wait.

Someone from the school came.

They said they'd hurt us.

I didn't have a choice.
I didn't have the money.

I told them what naina did.

So, the people from the school,

They know that naina has the money?

Looks like they shut it down in a hurry.

They've escalated to violence.

We need to know she's safe.

Is naina going to be okay?

Okay, so.

Bryce rowley,

A "faculty support specialist" for mna.

Bryce rowley and his associates
have ties to organized crime.

Fraud's been closing in on these guys.

They went to serve a warrant
last week, and they got away.

Maybe this "graduation fee"
is a smash-and-grab?

Extort as much as they can
before they leave town?

No, I wouldn't want
to mess with these guys...

Theft, aggravated assault.

That must be
who naina's on her way to pay.

She can't.
She doesn't have all the money.

But the scammers don't know that...

They think that naina stole
the money from the banquet hall.

They think she's paying
for all three students.

She's still not answering.

What do you think happens
when she shows up.

With only a fraction of what they want?

We need to reach her first.

Puraj, can I have your phone?

This is naina?

Thanks.

Puraj?

Naina, this is Sabrina.

Detective sohal. Please don't hang up.

Mna college has been
extorting you and your friends.

They're not affiliated with education.

They are involved with organized crime,

And they are dangerous.

You will not be getting
your degree from them.

Naina? Where are you, right now?

If you turn yourself in now,

I can't promise,

But I will do everything I can
to get your charges reduced.

Drop-off's happening.

By the parking lot at king George.

Copy. We're on our way.

Naina, we're sending help.

Stay on the line.

Naina.

Vince, the drop's happening right now.

Here it is.

My graduation fee.

Mind if I borrow that?

They've got her.

This barely covers your fee!

Give me that!

Give me my diploma first!

I said, where's the rest of it?

Okay?

Hey. Your roommate said.

You had the money
to cover all three of you.

Take us where you've hidden it.

The police stopped me.

I don't have the rest.

They have it now, okay?
So just please let me go.

Sure you want to tell us that kind of lie?

We know where
you and your friends live.

So I hid it
somewhere they wouldn't find it.

Take us.

Hey, Vince!

The tracker's just come online...
the one from the card box.

Wait, what?

Going away from the drop-off point.

She's signaling us!

She's headed north
on king George boulevard.

Looks like a left on 108.

Is she going back to the banquet hall?

That's the last place she saw the money.

She would know that it's not still there.

But the guys with her wouldn't.

Vince, we'll meet you there!

I hid it in here.

Let's see.

Okay, great.

You can come collect
your diplomas tomorrow.

It's okay. You're safe now.

- Hey!
- Don't move.

Put your hands up!

You were so smart...

To let us know where you were.

I didn't think
you could make it here in time.

They said it was gonna be
too much money, but I...

You didn't know, naina.

They said stay close to the family.

What will I do out here all alone, right?

But I convinced them,
I made them believe in me.

I should've listened. I should've known.

It's just I wanted so badly...

Fake college, fake visa...

The classes you attended at sfu,

How you fought to get an education...

That's real.

You know, back at home, they...

They line these up
in front of the gurdwara,

As a prayer offering...

So that the kids of punjab
get to leave punjab.

The first thing I owned in Canada.

What will I tell them?

The truth.

That someone took advantage of you...

That this isn't your fault.

Yes, but...

Kapil's parents

I know, and it's awful...

But, naina, you can't keep this
inside of you forever.

Whatever happens,

It's better that the truth is finally out.

Okay. Okay.

Will you stay with me?

While I make the call?

Of course.

Hello?

Ta-dah.

As promised... the motherlode.

30 years of civilian complaints
on the cfpc.

Excessive use of force,

Withholding evidence,
coerced confessions...

What does this have to do with
"the future face of policing"?

The cfpc is digitizing their archives.

So are we.

This is how we get ahead
of the program.

What program?

Predictive software
drawing on historical data.

It'll help enforcement agencies
anticipate criminal activity.

You're talking a.I.?

Ding-ding.

So basically,
a high-tech version of carding?

Confirmation bias on steroids.

The assistant commissioner's
gunning hard for it.

Assistant commissioner Campbell?

You did your homework.

But if we can get ahead of it,

We ride at dawn.

Or we could start right now.

Naina, can you wait in here a second?

- Okay.
- Thank you.

Harleen.

How's lucky?

He's gonna be okay.

The wedding money in the card box.

Is being processed as evidence,

But as soon as we can,
I'll get it back to you.

And what about the students?

Are they in trouble?

Well, with what they went through...

The courts are gonna consider all of that.

Before they make their decision.

After what lucky did

I want to help, if I can.

The wedding money...

Maybe that could be used towards
them getting a real education?

Maybe at least something good
can come from this?

Hey.

Hi!

A little update for you...

Since lucky pulled through,

Kapil's charges will be dropped
to aggravated assault.

You've been keeping up with the case?

Yeah. Yeah, he's been connected
to a public defender,

And we'll be pursuing a case
against lucky and mna.

The fraud department's already on it.

Thanks.

That's good.

You must be exhausted.

Yeah, I'm.

. Sorry.

- No, it's fine.
- I can come back...

There's the dad joke
that I was waiting for.

Looks like we're gonna be able
to get naina off.

With a slap on the wrist.

Sorting out her false visa, though,

That's gonna be a whole other story.

Yeah. Years of legal battles.

Just to stay in a country
she rightfully belongs.

This morning
feels like it was a month ago.

You know...

Work won't be there
waiting for you at home,

After an all-night shift.

I mean...

The people who care about you...

Th-they're worth more than anything.

You talking about Helena?

Yeah, it's open!

Hey.

You forgot your jacket at the wedding.

That's not my jacket.

I know.

And I'm not here...

Because this isn't
something that can happen.

What isn't?

Wait.

What?

I need to put my laptop in the safe.
