ANY BANKER MIGHT YIELD TO THE IMPULSE AND...

- STEAL A BODY? - YOU STOLE A BODY?

THERE'S A BETTER THAN EVEN CHANCE...

OH, MY GOD!

THIS IS THE BOTTLING SECTION OF THE WINERY.

DO YOU THINK WE LOST HIM?

YOU AIN'T SEEN NOTHIN' YET.

ACAPULCO!

I DON'T THINK THAT'S SAFE AT ALL.

SO WE'LL LIVE DANGEROUSLY. MM-HMM.

WATCH OUT!

TRY THIS FOR A DEEP, DARK SECRET...

THE GREAT DETECTIVE REMINGTON STEELE?

HE DOESN'T EXIST. I INVENTED HIM.

FOLLOW... I ALWAYS LOVED EXCITEMENT.

SO I STUDIED AND APPRENTICED...

AND PUT MY NAME ON AN OFFICE.

BUT ABSOLUTELY NOBODY KNOCKED DOWN MY DOOR.

A FEMALE PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR SEEMED SO... FEMININE.

SO I INVENTED A SUPERIOR.

A DECIDEDLY MASCULINE SUPERIOR.

SUDDENLY, THERE WERE CASES AROUND THE BLOCK.

IT WAS WORKING LIKE A CHARM.

UNTIL THE DAY HE WALKED IN...

WITH HIS BLUE EYES AND MYSTERIOUS PAST.

AND BEFORE I KNEW IT,

HE ASSUMED REMINGTON STEELE'S IDENTITY.

NOW I DO THE WORK, AND HE TAKES THE BOWS.

IT'S A DANGEROUS WAY TO LIVE,

BUT AS LONG AS PEOPLE BUY IT,

I CAN GET THE JOB DONE.

WE NEVER MIX BUSINESS WITH PLEASURE.

WELL, ALMOST NEVER.

I DON'T EVEN KNOW HIS REAL NAME.

LET'S GET THINGS GOING.

WHENEVER YOU'RE READY. FIRE AWAY.

MR. JEFFRIES, IT'S BEEN RUMORED THAT YOUR BANK IS THINKING...

OF FINANCING AN EXPANSION FOR VANDERMEER WINERIES...

TO THE TUNE OF $20 MILLION.

COULD YOU COMMENT ON THAT? I THINK IT'S SAFE TO SAY THAT IF WE DO PROCEED,

WE'LL HAVE NO DOUBT ABOUT PUTTING OUR FULL SUPPORT...

BEHIND A PRIZE-WINNING CABERNET LIKE THIS.

CRITICS HAVE PRAISED THIS VANDERMEER CABERNET...

AS A "LEGGY, FULL-BODIED WINE," WITH A "MARVELOUS NOSE,"

A "RICH RUBY ROBE," AN "ALMOST TRANSCENDENTAL FINISH."

THAT'S AN AWFUL LOT OF ADJECTIVES FOR GRAPE JUICE, WOULDN'T YOU SAY?

I THINK THE PERSON BEST QUALIFIED...

TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION IS THE MAN RESPONSIBLE...

FOR CREATING THE CABERNET, MR. CLAUDE VANDERMEER.

I'M GONNA STRETCH MY LEGS.

WHAT REALLY MAKES THIS VINTAGE SO EXCEPTIONAL, MR. VANDERMEER?

WELL, AS YOU REMEMBER...

WHEN WE PRESENTED THIS CABERNET AT THE COMPETITION LAST YEAR...

A MARVELOUS NOSE, RICH RUBY ROBE,

AND, OH... SO LEGGY.

GOOD MORNING, MISS WOLFE. ANY MATTERS HERE...

OF GREAT CONSEQUENCE THAT DEMAND MY IMMEDIATE ATTENTION?

THEY'RE BILLS, SIR. BILLS. GOOD.

AND HE'S WAITING FOR LAURA, SO I DON'T THINK YOU...

SHH. AH-AH.

REMINGTON STEELE. PERHAPS I CAN BE OF SOME ASSISTANCE.

MR. STEELE, WILL MISS HOLT BE IN SOON?

OH, ANY MOMENT, I'M SURE,

BUT YOU'RE WELCOME TO WAIT IN MY OFFICE, MR...

JEFFRIES, WILSON JEFFRIES.

THAT WOULDN'T BE A CABERNET YOU'RE WEARING BY ANY CHANCE, JEFFRIES?

ONE OF THE BEST.

I DON'T QUITE KNOW HOW TO SAY THIS, MR. STEELE,

BUT I... EH?

- I'M A BANKER. - A BANKER.

EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT OF MUTUAL GUARANTEE,

MANAGER OF CORPORATE FINANCES.

I...

- HOW IS SHE? - SHE?

- MISS HOLT. - OH, MISS HOLT. SHE'S FINE.

BUT AS FOR YOUR BANKING...

IT WAS MY PROPOSAL TO DIVERSIFY AND FINANCE THE WINERY.

CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, BUT I DON'T BELIEVE...

THAT BANKING IN ITSELF IS CAUSE FOR INVESTIGATION.

UNLESS, OF COURSE... I DID IT.

I CAN'T BELIEVE I DID, BUT I DID IT.

YOU DID SAY MISS HOLT WAS COMING IN SOON?

OH, YES, YES, YES. A BRIEF TRAFFIC DELAY AT WORST.

BUT ANYONE CAN APPRECIATE YOUR DILEMMA.

FACED WITH THE PROSPECT OF A VAST FINANCING, A BANKER,

ANY BANKER, MIGHT YIELD TO THE IMPULSE AND...

STEAL A BODY?

YOU STOLE A BODY?

GOOD MORNING.

THAT MIGHT BE A LITTLE RASH. HOW'S THAT?

I CAN'T FIGHT HIM ANYMORE, LAURA.

IF HE GETS HERE BEFORE YOU DO AND GRABS HOLD OF A CLIENT,

I WON'T BE HELD RESPONSIBLE.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT CAME OVER ME.

EXCUSE ME FOR BEING LATE, BUT...

OH, MY GOD!

THAT WAS MISS HOLT JUST NOW. WOULD YOU EXCUSE ME?

I DON'T BELIEVE IT.

IT'S NOT AS IF IT'S THE FIRST TIME I'VE SEEN A CLIENT BEFORE YOU DID.

DON'T YOU THINK YOU'RE OVERREACTING JUST A TOUCH?

WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE PROFESSIONALS.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? LAURA, I HAD NO IDEA THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN.

HAVEN'T I HEARD THAT FROM YOU BEFORE? I TAKE IT YOU ALREADY MET.

I HAVE TO TALK TO YOU. PRIOR CASE, NO DOUBT.

I DON'T THINK THIS IS THE PLACE FOR THAT. FRIEND OF THE FAMILY?

IT CAN'T WAIT. WILSON, I WORK HERE.

A COUSIN PERHAPS? SKIING INSTRUCTOR?

I HAD NO CHOICE. WHY?

BECAUSE HE STOLE A BODY. YOU STOLE A BODY?

WELL, I TOOK A BODY. I MEAN, I HAVE A BODY.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU HAVE A BODY? WE ALL HAVE A BODY.

MINE'S IN THE TRUNK OF THE CAR.

LOOK AT ME. MY SUIT.

I'M FALLING APART. YOU CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT IT'S LIKE,

LIFTING A BODY FROM A VAT OF WINE.

I'M SURE THE BOUQUET IS OVERWHELMING. WHAT SIZE ARE YOU?

38, REGULAR.

YOU MEAN TO TELL ME...

WHITE BELTS, T-SHIRTS THAT SAY...

"BANKERS DO IT WITH INTEREST."

YOU STILL HAVE THOSE CLOTHES OF MINE?

YOU LIVED TOGETHER? I ASSUMED YOU HAD SOME HISTORY, BUT...

IT'S ANCIENT HISTORY NOW.

ALL RIGHT, WE'RE HERE. LET'S SEE IT.

BRACE YOURSELF. IT'S NOT AN EASY THING... OPEN IT.

OH, NO. NO. HE WAS RIGHT THERE.

I SWEAR IT! SOMEONE MUST HAVE TAKEN HIM.

FROM A MOVING CAR? THAT HARDLY SEEMS LIKELY.

PERHAPS IN LIGHT OF THE PERSONAL NATURE OF THIS AFFAIR,

WE SHOULD REFER WILSON TO ANOTHER AGENCY.

THERE'S NOTHING PERSONAL GOING ON HERE. I AM OVER IT.

ALL RIGHT. COMPLETELY.

ALL RIGHT, WILSON.

WE'RE BOTH ADULTS. BOTH PROFESSIONALS.

IF YOU INSIST THAT THERE WAS A BODY IN THAT TRUNK,

I THINK THE THING TO DO IS TO PROCEED...

WITH A SERIES OF STRICTLY PROFESSIONAL QUESTIONS.

ON THE WAY FROM THE WINERY, DID YOU STOP ANYWHERE?

NO.

YES. ONCE.

I HAD TO.

WHERE?

AH, WINE COUNTRY. WARM, FRIENDLY, INVITING.

CAN YOU DESCRIBE THIS BODY?

WELL, IT WAS... HEAVY.

I REALLY DIDN'T LOOK AT IT THAT CLOSELY.

SLOW DOWN. I THINK THIS IS IT.

YOU STOPPED HERE?

WELL, THERE WAS...

THERE WAS SO MUCH WINE AT THE PRESS CONFERENCE,

I DIDN'T KNOW WHEN I'D FIND A GAS STATION, SO...

YOU MEAN YOU NEEDED TO... YEAH, BY THAT TREE OVER THERE.

AH. MAYBE IT WAS THAT TREE. I DON'T KNOW.

IT'S SO DARK. I CAN'T TELL NOW.

OH. BUT I WAS ONLY THERE FOR A MINUTE OR TWO.

YOU DIDN'T HEAR OR SEE ANYTHING?

SURE I DID. I HEARD HARCOURT...

TEAR UP A YEAR'S WORTH OF WORK IN 10 SECONDS.

I HEARD THE BOARD KICK ME OUT OF THE BANK.

I HEARD MY WHOLE LIFE COMING DOWN AROUND MY EARS.

I SAW THAT BODY IN THE VAT, AND SUDDENLY I THOUGHT TO MYSELF,

"WHAT WOULD LAURA DO ABOUT THIS?"

SO YOU STUFFED HIM IN THE TRUNK OF A CAR AND RAN AWAY WITH IT.

ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THIS LAURA HERE?

THE LOAN IS SET TO GO THROUGH IN LESS THAN 48 HOURS.

THERE WERE REPORTERS ALL OVER THE PLACE.

I HAD TO DO SOMETHING!

WELL, THERE ARE SIGNS HERE OF TRUCK TREADS,

MAYBE SOME RUBBER BOOTS, A FEW HORSESHOE IMPRESSIONS,

BUT IN THIS AREA NONE OF THOSE IS UNUSUAL.

IN THAT CASE, I THINK WE SHOULD PROCEED TO THE WINERY...

AND INSPECT THE ORIGINAL SOURCE OF, UM, THE PROBLEM.

WHOA, ARNOLD!

WHOA! OW.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT? ONCE MORE, ARNOLD, MY PET,

ONCE MORE AND YOU'RE DOG MEAT, YOU HEAR ME?

- IS THAT YOUR CAR THERE? - IT'S MINE.

ARNOLD DOESN'T LIKE CARS. NEVER HAS. WHAT'S IT DOING THERE?

WELL, WE WERE JUST ADMIRING THE VIEW.

- WHAT VIEW? - TO STUDENTS OF NATURE LIKE OURSELVES,

EVEN THE MOST MUNDANE SURROUNDINGS...

CAN AFFORD A PANORAMA OF DELIGHT.

I WANT THAT CAR OUT OF HERE IN FIVE MINUTES.

- THIS IS A PUBLIC ROAD. - NOT WHEN IT RUNS THROUGH MY LAND, IT ISN'T.

DON'T YOU MOVE FROM THAT SPOT, ARNOLD. YOU HEAR ME?

WHAT AN ENGAGING ATTITUDE.

HERS? ARNOLD'S.

WONDERFUL WINE COUNTRY, HUH?

WELL...

WILSON.

THERE ARE A NUMBER OF PRIVATE VINTNER ESTATES

IN THE AREA, SO, WITH THE WAY YOU DRIVE...

WHAT'S WRONG WITH HER DRIVING ANYWAY?

WELL, YOU CERTAINLY TAUGHT THAT ROAD A LESSON IT WON'T SOON FORGET.

NO SENSE IN DRAGGING THIS THING OUT.

IT'S INSIDE. I'LL SHOW YOU.

OH.

IF YOU DON'T MIND MY ASKING, WILSON,

WHEN YOU AND MISS HOLT WERE...

"COHABITATING." YES.

WAS HER DRIVING ALWAYS SO... EXUBERANT?

IF ANYTHING, IT'S GOTTEN A LITTLE BETTER.

BUT I'M SURE YOU KNOW HOW SHE IS.

IMPULSIVE, UNINHIBITED,

ABSURDLY PASSIONATE.

IT MUST GET TRYING FOR YOU AT TIMES, KEEPING HER IN CHECK.

OH, WELL, I DO WHAT I CAN. HMM.

ABSURDLY PASSIONATE, EH?

WILSON, THANK GOD! I WAS SO WORRIED WHEN YOU DISAPPEARED LAST NIGHT WITHOUT A WORD.

SOMETHING SORT OF CAME UP SUDDENLY.

I GUESS WAITING FOR FINAL APPROVAL ON THE LOAN HAS US ALL A BIT STRAINED.

WELL, WILSON WAS SO EXCITED ABOUT SOMETHING IN YOUR WINE,

HE INSISTED WE COME UP AND HAVE A LOOK.

FORGIVE ME. CLAUDE VANDERMEER, THIS IS MISS HOLT AND...

LINSEY-WOOLSEY. NIGEL LINSEY-WOOLSEY.

WILSON ASKED US NOT TO SAY ANYTHING,

BUT I'M PREPARING THE DEFINITIVE TEXT ON CALIFORNIA WINES.

MISS HOLT IS MY ASSISTANT.

AND IF THE REPORTS CAN BE TRUSTED,

WE MIGHT DO A FEATURE ON YOUR CABERNET.

MIND IF WE HAVE A LOOK AROUND?

FOR A FEATURE WRITE-UP, I'LL GIVE YOU A GRAND TOUR.

WILSON, YOU CLEVER DOG, YOU.

WHEN YOU GRAB SOMETHING, YOU RUN WITH IT ALL THE WAY, DON'T YOU?

JUST AS FAR AND AS FAST AS HE CAN.

OF COURSE, YOU KNOW THAT WINE CONSUMPTION IN THE UNITED STATES...

OVER THE LAST 10 YEARS HAS MORE THAN DOUBLED.

MM-HMM, MM-HMM. THIS, OF COURSE, IS OUR BOTTLING AREA...

WHERE THE RESULTS OF MONTHS OF HARD WORK FINALLY COME TO FRUITION.

LAURA, FROM YOUR EXPERIENCE,

WOULD YOU SAY WILSON SEES THINGS FROM AN UNUSUAL PERSPECTIVE?

I DON'T KNOW ANYMORE WHAT HE SEES. WHY?

WELL, HE CLAIMS TO TAKE A BODY FROM A VAT OF WINE,

WHICH THEN MYSTERIOUSLY DISAPPEARS.

YOU DON'T BELIEVE HIM? NO, NO, IT'S NOT THAT,

BUT WITH ALL THE STRESS FROM THIS BUSINESS LOAN,

THE MAN HE FOUND MIGHT HAVE BEEN MERELY INTOXICATED.

BUT I SWEAT OUT EVERY INCH OF THE PROCESS,

SO THAT I KNOW THAT WHEN I PRESS THIS BUTTON...

ALL THE MONTHS OF CAREFUL FERMENTATION,

THE ENDLESS CHECKING AND BLENDING AND SAMPLING...

WILL PRODUCE THE MOST EXTRAORDINARY VINTAGE...

WILSON'S MADE A CAREER OUT OF BEING ACCURATE AND SPECIFIC.

IF HE SAID IT WAS A BODY,

THERE'S A BETTER THAN EVEN CHANCE...

WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?

- THE BODY. - WHAT?

THE BODY.

WHO... WHO IS IT? YOU DON'T RECOGNIZE HIM?

IT'S THE SAME ONE, ALL RIGHT. YOU RECOGNIZE HIM?

JUST FROM THE TRUNK OF MY CAR. BUT HOW DID HE GET BACK HERE?

BACK HERE? IT APPEARS TO BE A BLOW TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD.

ENOUGH TO MAKE HIM DROWN IN A VAT?

THAT WOULD BE MY PROFESSIONAL OPINION.

WHAT VAT? WHAT OPINION? SINCE WHEN DOES A WINE WRITER...

HAVE PROFESSIONAL OPINIONS ABOUT BODIES?

WILSON, WHAT IN GOD'S NAME IS HAPPENING HERE?

I WOULD LIKE TO BE MORE SPECIFIC WITH YOU ABOUT THAT,

- BUT AS FOR THE MOMENT... - JEFFRIES, YOU BACK THERE?

OH, NO. IT'S HARCOURT. THAT MEANS WESTFIELD.

THE WHOLE BOARD IS... I WAS EXPECTING THEM TODAY, BUT... OH, NO.

JEFFRIES! HELP ME!

GIVE ME AS MUCH TIME AS YOU CAN. GO ON, GO ON.

INTRIGUING PROBLEM, EH?

WELL, THEN, PERHAPS YOU GENTLEMEN WOULD LIKE TO START WITH SOME WINE?

WINE? PERHAPS LATER.

JUST NOW, WE'RE ANXIOUS TO HAVE A LOOK AT WHAT WE'RE BUYING INTO.

WHAT'S THIS WAY? AH, THIS WAY.

PUSH. PUSH. I'M PUSHING. THE ARM.

OH, GOD.

THIS IS THE BOTTLING SECTION OF THE WINERY...

WHERE THE WINE IS PUT IN BOTTLES.

OH. OH.

OH.

ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE THE NOTED WINE AUTHOR, NIGEL WOOLLY...

LENTIL.

CHESTER HARCOURT. NEVER HEARD OF YOU.

I DON'T PUBLISH THAT MUCH NOW IN THE COLONIES.

- AND HIS ASSISTANT, MISS HOLT. - HELLO.

BUT YOU DO SEEM FAMILIAR TO ME.

REALLY? I CAN'T IMAGINE WHERE WE WOULD HAVE MET BEFORE.

WELL, WE STILL HAVE A LOT TO SEE. SHALL WE?

IF YOU'LL EXCUSE US. I'LL JUST...

OOPS. HERE WE GO.

EXCUSE ME, LENTIL. I'M NOT USUALLY SO CLUMSY.

OH, YES. WELL, WE ALL MISS A STEP NOW AND THEN.

CARRY ON, WILSON.

THERE'S NO TELLING WHY HE TURNED UP BACK HERE.

SABOTAGE MAYBE? LET ME GET TO THE SIDE OF IT.

IT'S TOUGH TO KNOW WHY HE WAS KILLED...

IF WE DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO HE IS.

THAT'S THE TROUBLE WITH HARRY.

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK HIS NAME WAS HARRY? PARAMOUNT.

1955.

HEY! JOHN FORSYTHE, SHIRLEY MacLAINE.

THEY HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM, KEEPING UP WITH A ROVING CORPSE.

OH, I'M SORRY.

SHAKE THAT ANY HARDER, YOU'LL KILL IT FOR SURE.

AH. BUT THEN WHO SAID STUDENTS OF NATURE...

KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT HANDLING WINE.

AND HERE I THOUGHT YOUR FORTE WAS HORSES.

OR HAS ARNOLD GOT HIS BACK UP AGAIN?

WHEN YOU RUN AN ESTATE OF 12,000 ACRES,

YOU LEARN TO BE GOOD AT LOTS OF THINGS.

YOU MUST BE HERE FOR CLAUDE. I SHOULD'VE GUESSED THAT BEFORE.

- AND YOU MUST BE... - ALEXIS VANDERMEER.

- VANDERMEER? THEN YOU'RE... - HIS MOTHER? I'M AFRAID SO.

SOMEBODY HAD TO TEACH THE POOR CREATURE HOW TO MAKE WINE.

YOU WITH THE BANK THAT'S HOPING TO CASH IN...

ON THAT SO-CALLED CABERNET?

- AND WHAT IF WE ARE? - YOU'LL BE THROWING AWAY A LOT OF GOOD MONEY, THAT'S ALL.

LAND ON THIS SIDE OF THE VALLEY'S TOO SANDY.

ONE FREAK HARVEST OF GOOD GRAPES IS NOT GONNA CHANGE THAT.

I WARNED HIM IT WAS JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THE SOIL GAVE OUT...

WHEN HE INSISTED ON BUYING THIS PLACE.

YOU CAN SEE WHAT HE THINKS OF MY OPINION.

THEN IT'S SAFE TO ASSUME YOU DON'T WISH HIM EVERY SUCCESS.

I BROKE MY BUTT TO BUILD SOMETHING...

I COULD PASS ON TO CLAUDE.

AND HE THREW IT BACK AT ME.

WHAT WOULD YOU SUGGEST I WISH FOR NOW?

AND I'D PUT THAT CASK INSIDE IF I WERE YOU.

IT'LL DRAW FLIES IN THE SUN LIKE THAT.

SHE DOES HAVE A POINT THERE.

IT WOULD SEEM CLAUDE AND HIS MOTHER...

HAVE A VERY THICK AND STORMY PAST. MMM.

CAREFUL.

MIGHT THAT APPLY ELSEWHERE, DO YOU THINK?

IF YOU'RE REFERRING TO WILSON AND ME,

WE WERE ONLY TOGETHER FOR A YEAR... YEAR AND A HALF.

IT ENDED.

BADLY? I'M SORRY.

I'M HARDLY IN A POSITION TO QUESTION YOUR PAST.

I JUST NEVER THOUGHT IT CONTAINED VERY MANY... SURPRISES.

WE ALL HAVE OUR SECRETS AND OUR REASONS FOR KEEPING THEM.

THAT IS STILL YOUR PHILOSOPHY?

PERHAPS TO A FAULT.

WELL, THEN, UNTIL WE'RE READY TO BREAK WITH TRADITION,

I SUGGEST WE STAND HARRY BACK UP ON END AND CHECK IN ON...

COME ON.

AH.

YOU LOSE SOMETHING, MAYBE?

IN A MANNER OF SPEAKING, YES.

WE'D BE HAPPY TO PAY FOR THAT FENCE. THAT

WAS YOUR FENCE? DON'T PLAY THE FOOL WITH ME.

I KNOW HOW VANDERMEER LOVES TO TAUNT ME WITH HIS SUCCESS.

SO HE SENDS YOU WITH HIS PRECIOUS CABERNET...

IN MY NOSE TO RUB IT, YES?

BEG PARDON? CLAUDE HAD...

I'VE BEEN GROWING MY GRAPES FOR 40 YEARS, MEINE LIEBE KINDER,

LIKE MY FATHER AND MY GRANDFATHER ALONG THE RHINE.

AND THAT... THAT SCHTUNK, A KNOW-NOTHING MOVES IN,

AND IN THE SAME SOIL, UNDER THE SAME SUN,

GROWS A CABERNET GOOD ENOUGH TO DIE FOR.

YOU'RE NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO HIS EXPANSION, I IMAGINE.

NATURE HAS PLAYED A CRUEL JOKE ON ME.

BUT YOU TELL CLAUDE VANDERMEER,

WERNER SHUMANN DOESN'T NEED HIS PRIZES OR HIS WINE.

I DON'T SUPPOSE THERE'S AN EASIER WAY BACK UP THERE?

YES? NO.

WONDERFUL WINE COUNTRY.

WONDERFUL. YOU JUST GOTTA GET TO KNOW THEM, I SUPPOSE. OH, COME ON.

♪ THREE NIGHTS AND DAYS WE SAILED THE SEA ♪

♪ WE THINK OF HER CONSTANTLY ♪

♪ AND ON... ♪ ♪ LOUIE, LOUIE WHOA, WHOA, WHOA ♪

♪♪

IT WOULD APPEAR SOMEONE MIGHT BE USING HARRY HERE...

TO SABOTAGE YOUR DEAL.

HARRY? YOU FOUND OUT HIS NAME. THAT'S GREAT.

YES. WELL, I'M AFRAID IT'S MORE ENDEARING THAN ACCURATE.

THIS NEIGHBOR OF YOURS, WERNER...

DO YOU THINK HE MIGHT BE RESPONSIBLE?

WELL, HE'S NOT ONE OF MY BIGGER FANS,

BUT I CAN'T BELIEVE HE'S CAPABLE OF KILLING ANYONE.

MY MOTHER ON THE OTHER HAND...

THICK AND STORMY PAST, EH?

WHEN I WAS NINE, I SET UP A LEMONADE STAND.

MY MOTHER TOLD ME THE KEY TO GOOD LEMONADE...

WAS TO SCRATCH THE SUGAR AND DOUBLE THE SALT.

AND WHEN I HAD A PAPER ROUTE,

SHE USED TO GO THROUGH MY PAPERS EVERY DAY...

AND TAKE OUT THE FUNNIES.

SHE'S ALWAYS HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH ME SUCCEEDING.

SHE KNOWS THAT THIS WINE IS MY CHANCE...

TO FINALLY MAKE IT ON MY OWN.

I WOULDN'T PUT ANYTHING PAST HER.

NOT AFTER WATCHING HER DRIVE MY FATHER, ARNOLD, TO HIS GRAVE.

YOUR FATHER'S NAME WAS ARNOLD?

WAIT! WAIT, I'LL GET IT.

ALL RIGHT.

DAMN FINE BREW...

YOU'VE GOT HERE, VANDERMEER.

DON'T YOU THINK SO, LENTIL?

HUH?

OH, YES. IN A CLASS ALL BY ITSELF. YEAH.

BUT WE'RE RUNNING JUST A LITTLE BIT LOW.

AND THERE IT IS.

IN HERE, BOYS.

- FRESH SUPPLIES. - WE'LL GET YOU SOME MORE.

I DON'T THINK THIS WOULD BE TO YOUR LIKING. IT HASN'T AGED YET.

NONSENSE. I LOVE 'EM WHEN THEY'RE YOUNG.

AND BOTRYTIZED? OOPS. WHAT?

BOTRYTIS CINEREA. A FUNGUS FOUND ON CERTAIN SPECIES OF THE GRAPE.

WE FEAR THAT THIS BARREL MAY BE TAINTED.

YES. YOU THINK WE'VE HAD TOO MUCH, DON'T YOU?

OH, NO. NO, NOT AT ALL.

YEAH.

- MR. HARCOURT. - WILSON.

WILSON, MAYBE YOU HAVEN'T EXPLAINED THE SITUATION...

CLEARLY TO EVERYONE.

WE'RE THE GUYS WHO HAVE TO PUSH...

THE FINAL BUTTON ON YOUR LOAN.

NOW, YOU'RE NOT TRYING TO TELL ME...

THAT A COUPLE OF SHOTS FROM THAT BARREL...

ARE WORTH MORE THAN 20 MILLION, ARE YOU?

OF COURSE NOT, MR. HARCOURT.

IT'S JUST THAT CLAUDE HERE...

WOULDN'T HAVE YOU DRINK ANYTHING LESS THAN HIS VERY BEST, RIGHT?

WAIT A MINUTE. NOW I REMEMBER.

YEAH, I THOUGHT YOU LOOKED FAMILIAR. WILSON!

WILSON, ISN'T SHE... NO. NO.

ACAPULCO!

NO. YOU'RE THE GAL FROM ACAPULCO.

- ACAPULCO? - YEAH, YOU BROUGHT HER DOWN TO THE CONVENTION.

NO, IT WAS SOMEBODY ELSE. HEY, GUYS.

IT'S HER. REMEMBER THE GAL FROM ACAPULCO?

YOU KNOW, SHE DID THE BIG FAN DANCE ON THE BAR.

THE BIG FAN DANCE ON THE BAR?

THE DANCE WAS BIG, THE FANS WEREN'T. WAS IT?

IT IS ACAPULCO.

COME ON, BOYS. LET'S GET THE BARREL.

ROLL OUT THE BARREL. NO, NO.

CAREFUL. IT'S ALL OVER NOW.

I WANT YOU TO FORGET THE NEXT FIVE MINUTES OF YOUR LIFE. WHAT?

ALL RIGHT, BOYS. THERE'S NO SENSE IN DENYING THE PAST...

WHILE THERE'S STILL A FUTURE TO BE LIVED, RIGHT?

THINK ACAPULCO WAS FUN?

YOU AIN'T SEEN NOTHIN' YET.

MMM.

ANYTHING YOU CATCH, YOU KEEP.

ACAPULCO!

LAURA!

WHICH WAY DID SHE GO? WHICH WAY DID SHE GO?

LAURA! PSST. PSST.

TOUCHDOWN, ACAPULCO.

ACAPULCO. ACAPULCO.

HI, LOVER.

ACAPULCO.

OH. UM.

OW. LAURA, I APPRECIATE YOUR-YOUR ZEAL,

BUT WE CAN'T LET THE SITUATION GET OUT OF HAND.

IT'S ALL RIGHT. I CAN HANDLE THEM. THERE SHE IS.

JUST GET HARRY OUT OF HERE. OKAY. YES.

THAT WAY. YES.

THE BARREL. WHAT HAPPENED?

I DON'T KNOW. SOMEBODY HIT ME FROM BEHIND.

COULD IT HAVE BEEN ONE OF THE BANKERS? THE BOARD IS ALL BACK THERE.

STEELE, THE BARREL. DON'T TELL ME...

OH, NO. HERE YOU GO. COULD YOU...

YOU DIDN'T TAKE IT. NO.

I DIDN'T TAKE IT. NO.

THEY DIDN'T TAKE IT. UH-HUH.

OKAY, WHERE'D YOU PUT HIM? WHERE'D WE PUT HIM? STEELE?

YES, IT APPEARS SOMEONE THOUGHT ALL THE EXCITEMENT...

WAS MORE THAN HARRY COULD HANDLE.

OH, NO!

ARE YOU SURE YOU DIDN'T SEE WHO HIT YOU?

ALL I REMEMBER IS HARCOURT, RUNNING IN FRONT OF ME, SHOUTING "ACAPUL..."

YES, WE KNOW. THIS SOUNDS RIDICULOUS, BUT IS IT POSSIBLE...

THAT I SAW A MONK IN THERE LAST NIGHT?

A MONK? WHAT WOULD A MONK BE DOING HERE?

THIS IS HARDLY THE PLACE FOR A... RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE?

WAIT A MINUTE. ISN'T THERE A MONASTERY SOMEWHERE AROUND HERE, CLAUDE?

WELL, THERE'S THE ORDER OF ST. COSTELLO, OF COURSE,

BUT THE MONKS HARDLY EVER LEAVE THE MONASTERY,

AND I CAN'T IMAGINE THEM LUGGING A BODY AROUND.

WELL, WHOEVER TOOK IT MAY ALREADY HAVE TRIED TO PLANT IT BACK HERE,

WAITING TO LET IT DROP AT THE RIGHT MOMENT.

HARRY'S TIMING HAS BEEN RATHER PRECISE BEFORE.

I SUGGEST WE FIND HIM BEFORE HE FINDS US.

I WAS JUST, UH, CHECKING IN HERE.

ME TOO.

ALL RIGHT, WILSON, SAY IT.

MAYBE WE SHOULD JUST FORGET LAST NIGHT.

WHY? BECAUSE THERE WAS WILD, CRAZY LAURA...

MAKING A FOOL OF YOU IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE BANK?

LAURA, I KNOW I ASKED FOR YOUR HELP.

I JUST DIDN'T EXPECT ANYTHING LIKE THAT.

I NEVER EXPECTED YOU TO LEAVE ME.

IT JUST WASN'T WORKING OUT, LAURA.

FOR WHOM? FOR EITHER OF US.

I LIKE THINGS BEING ORGANIZED, REGULAR, PREDICTABLE.

YOU LOVE SPONTANEITY, BEING RECKLESS, LIVING DANGEROUSLY.

I ALSO LOVED YOU.

YOU THINK THIS WERNER CHARACTER COULD'VE TAKEN IT?

NONE OF US HEARD A CAR OR TRUCK LAST NIGHT.

AND HARRY DID DISAPPEAR RATHER QUICKLY.

YOU'RE NOT SUGGESTING THAT HE ROLLED IT ALL THE WAY DOWN HERE?

ANYTHING'S POSSIBLE.

IF WE'RE RIGHT ABOUT THIS TRACK,

HARRY SHOULD BE IN HERE SOMEWHERE.

HARRY COULD BE ANYWHERE.

THERE MUST BE HUNDREDS OF THEM.

MMM. IT SEEMS HARRY'S BENT ON CHALLENGING US, EH?

WELL, I GUESS I'LL CHECK DOWN THERE.

TELL ME IF YOU FIND ANYTHING.

LOOK, WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE WITH WILSON... UH, UH, UH.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO EXPLAIN, LAURA.

HE MUST'VE MEANT A GREAT DEAL TO YOU.

LAST NIGHT MADE THAT CLEAR ENOUGH.

YEAH, LAST NIGHT.

HE WAS IN TROUBLE AND, WITHOUT THOUGHT OF YOURSELF,

YOU RUSHED TO HIS AID.

FRANKLY, I... I RATHER ENVIED HIS PREDICAMENT.

WERE YOU SHOCKED?

WELL, I NEVER KNEW YOU'D BEEN TO ACAPULCO BEFORE.

NO.

BUT THERE WAS MORE THAN JUST HELPING WILSON IN THAT.

THERE WAS A LOT OF ME TOO.

YES, I SAW THAT.

WHERE DO YOU SUPPOSE THAT LAURA'S BEEN ALL THIS TIME?

HIDING.

SHE ALREADY COST ME ONE RELATIONSHIP.

I COULDN'T TAKE A CHANCE ON HER DOING IT AGAIN.

WATCH OUT!

LAURA? STEELE? ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

A FEW SPLINTERED NERVES, BUT UNHARMED.

COME ON.

YOU THINK WE CAN CATCH HIM?

WELL, IF LAURA DRIVES. I'M GETTING VERY POSSESSIVE ABOUT HARRY.

I DON'T SEE HIM ANYMORE. WE LOST HIM.

HE MUST HAVE DISAPPEARED SOMEWHERE BACK IN HERE.

EMPTY. DAMN! I WAS ALMOST GETTING USED TO SEEING HIM IN THERE.

IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. WERNER HAS HIM AND WE DON'T. THAT'S CLEAR ENOUGH.

WE'RE CHASING HIM. WHY WOULD HE STOP JUST TO TAKE HARRY OUT?

PERHAPS THEY DIDN'T STOP. AND THE BARREL FELL OUT?

THEN WHERE'S THE BODY? THAT'S THE PART THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.

HE JUST DIDN'T DUST HIMSELF OFF AND WALK AWAY.

I WOULDN'T SELL HARRY SHORT.

HE'S MANAGED TO GET AROUND FAIRLY WELL FOR A DEAD MAN.

- UNLESS HE DID WALK AWAY. - TO WHERE?

TO SOMEPLACE WHERE ROPE BELTS ARE IN FASHION?

- ST. COSTELLO'S? - LET'S GO DOWN THERE AND HAVE A WORD WITH THOSE PEOPLE.

I DON'T THINK THAT WOULD BE OUR WISEST CHOICE.

PEOPLE WHO TAKE BODIES HAVE A TENDENCY...

TO TRY TO CONCEAL THAT FACT, REMEMBER?

OH, RIGHT. BUT WE MIGHT WANNA HAVE A LOOK AROUND ON OUR OWN.

ANYONE HAVE ANY PLANS FOR THIS EVENING, HMM?

GIVE ME A MOMENT TO FIND A SOFT SPOT IN THEIR DEFENSES, OKAY?

LISTEN, LAURA, ABOUT LAST NIGHT...

WE'VE BEEN THROUGH THIS ALREADY, WILSON.

NO.

SEEING YOU CUT LOOSE THE WAY YOU CAN,

JUST MADE ME REALIZE HOW MUCH I MISS THAT IN MY LIFE NOW.

IF IT WEREN'T FOR YOU, I'D STILL BE SETTING OUT MY CLOTHES THE NIGHT BEFORE...

AND MAKING HOSPITAL CORNERS ON MY BED.

YOU'VE STOPPED? MM-HMM.

AND YOU KNOW, EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE I'LL CALL IN SICK...

SPEND THE WHOLE DAY AT THE MOVIES.

REALLY? MM-HMM.

IT'S FROM YOU, LAURA.

IT HAS TO BE. YOU AND YOUR...

TERMINAL FLIGHTS OF FRIVOLITY.

I GUESS YOU USED TO HEAR THAT FROM ME A LOT.

THAT, AND HOW IMPORTANT IT WAS TO BE LEVELHEADED,

CONSCIENTIOUS, KEEPING UP THE RIGHT SORT OF APPEARANCES.

PRETTY DULL. I DON'T KNOW.

I MEAN, LOOK WHAT'S HAPPENED TO ME SINCE THEN.

I'VE REALLY THROWN MYSELF INTO MY CAREER,

MOVED UP THE RANKS, STARTED MY OWN AGENCY.

WHEN WAS THAT?

OH, THAT WAS BEFORE I STARTED WORKING FOR MR. STEELE.

I'M SORRY IF I HURT YOU, LAURA.

I'M SORRY IT DIDN'T WORK OUT BETTER.

BUT WE'RE JUST TOO...

DIFFERENT?

IT'S NICE TO KNOW IT WASN'T ALL BAD.

NO, WASN'T ALL BAD.

I THINK I FOUND A SPOT.

WHAT'S EVERYONE LAUGHING ABOUT?

PROGRESS.

THERE'S A WALL AROUND THE SIDE THAT DOESN'T LOOK TOO DIFFICULT.

- YOU COMING, WILSON? - I'M STILL THE VICE PRESIDENT OF A BANK.

- I'LL STAND GUARD. - FAIR ENOUGH.

PERHAPS IT WOULD BE BETTER IF WE DRESSED FOR THE OCCASION.

YES. WELL, DO YOU REALLY THINK THE MEDIEVAL CUT IS CALLED FOR?

OOPS.

IT'S AWFULLY QUIET IN HERE.

I'VE YET TO EVEN HEAR SOMEONE TALKING.

IF I HAD TO WEAR ONE OF THESE ALL THE TIME,

I WOULDN'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY EITHER.

HELLO, HARRY. NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

AT LEAST WE KNOW WHERE HARRY IS NOW.

AND HIS WARDROBE'S CERTAINLY TAKEN A TURN FOR THE BETTER.

OOPS.

DO YOU THINK HARRY'S HERE TO STAY,

OR IS THIS MERELY ANOTHER STOP ALONG THE ROAD?

I DON'T KNOW.

WHAT WOULD THESE MONKS WANT WITH HIS BODY IN THE FIRST PLACE?

YES. PERHAPS THEY'RE PLANNING ON TAKING HIM BACK TO CLAUDE'S.

THAT WOULD MEAN THAT THEY WERE BEHIND THE SABOTAGE.

WELL, MONKS HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO DO STRANGER THINGS.

THINK OF RASPUTIN.

- RASPUTIN? - YES. RASPUTIN AND THE EMPRESS.

MGM, 1932. JOHN, LIONEL AND ETHEL BARRYMORE.

OH, WONDERFUL STUFF.

THE MAD MONK RASPUTIN TERRORIZES ALL OF RUSSIA.

BUT WHY WOULD A GROUP OF MONKS WANT TO SABOTAGE A WINERY?

BECAUSE THEY HAVE A WINERY OF THEIR OWN, HMM?

MMM. AND A VERY GOOD VINTAGE TOO.

MMM. IT IS GOOD.

VERY FAMILIAR. YOU KNOW, IT MAKES ME THINK OF... WHAT?

I DON'T THINK I SHOULD SAY. IT MIGHT SURPRISE YOU.

CONSIDERING RECENT EVENTS, I DON'T THINK THAT'S POSSIBLE.

DO YOU THINK THERE'S ANY DANGER IN FEELING TOO MUCH TOO SOON?

IT ALL DEPENDS ON, UH, WHAT YOU'RE FEELING.

SOMETHING LIKE THIS.

I DON'T THINK THAT'S SAFE AT ALL.

SO WE'LL LIVE DANGEROUSLY.

THAT'S HIM! AH-AH. GOT YOU. GOT YOU.

ICY CALM. ICY CALM.

NO, NO. WE DON'T WANT TO HURT YOU.

WE ONLY WANT TO TALK TO YOU. REALLY. NO?

"THE ORDER OF ST. COSTELLO HAS TAKEN A VOW OF SILENCE.

THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING."

A VOW OF SILENCE? OH, WONDERFUL.

HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO QUESTION HIM, PRESS HIM

FOR FACTS, ELICIT INFORMATION VITAL TO THE CASE?

- I DON'T KNOW. - AH, THAT'S JUST A CLEVER PLOY, ISN'T IT?

YOU KILLED HIM, DIDN'T YOU? HMM? HMM?

US? YOU THINK WE KILLED HIM?

THAT'S A RASH STATEMENT, IF EVER I HEARD ONE.

WE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH HIS DEATH. WE DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO HARRY IS.

THE FELLOW UPSTAIRS. YOU KNOW WHO HE IS?

HMM?

UNFORTUNATELY, CHARADES HAS NEVER BEEN ONE OF MY STRONG POINTS.

ALLOW ME. UH, BODY. PERSON. BODY UPSTAIRS.

IS YOU? IS... NO.

IS LIKE YOU? IS LIKE YOU.

LIKE YOU. WHO COULD THAT BE?

TRY BROTHER.

BROTHER? BROTHER. OKAY, HIS BROTHER.

HIS BROTHER MONKEY? MONKEY? HIS BROTHER MONKEY. MONK.

HARRY WAS A MONK?

HE WAS A MONK. OH.

NO.

TWO SYLLABLES. FIRST SYLLABLE.

SOUNDS LIKE. SOUNDS LIKE. UH, TALK.

- CHATTER. BABBLE. BLABBER. - BLAB. TALKS, TALKS.

BLAB? BLAB? BL-BL-BLAB.

BLA-BLA... BL-AB-AB-AB. AB-AB. AB?

AB. AB.

FIRST SYLLABLE, AB. SECOND SYLLABLE. YOU'RE DOING WONDERFUL.

SECOND SYLLABLE.

CIRCLE. DUST.

BOWL. CHAMBER.

POT. POT? POT.

AB-POT? AB-POT. AB-BOT. ABBOT?

ABBOT. HARRY WAS THE ABBOT?

OOH. SHH. WELL DONE, LAURA.

IF THAT'S THE TRUTH, THEN HARRY WAS THE ABBOT OF COSTELLO.

SORRY. COSTELLO. SORRY.

DO YOU KNOW WHO KILLED YOUR ABBOT OR WHY?

OH. WELL, THAT SIMPLY LEAVES US WITH THE BODY. AGAIN.

MAYBE THAT'S THE KEY.

WE'VE BEEN CHASING ALL OVER TOWN AFTER HARRY.

DON'T YOU THINK IT'S TIME HE DID A LITTLE SOMETHING FOR US?

LAURA, I REALIZE THAT HARRY HAS BEEN A BIT ELUSIVE AT TIMES,

EVEN UNCOOPERATIVE, BUT THE MAN'S DEAD.

DO YOU REALLY WANNA KNOW WHO KILLED YOUR ABBOT?

HOW BADLY?

DAMN. ARE YOU STILL CONVINCED THIS IS A GOOD IDEA?

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THE KILLER WILL RETURN FOR HIM?

HE HAS EVERY OTHER TIME. DID YOU CONTACT EVERYONE?

YES, YES. I TIPPED A FIELD HAND TO PASS ON THE NEWS...

OF HIS SHOCKING DISCOVERY TO ALL THE RIGHT PEOPLE.

THEY'LL KNOW HE'S HERE. I BEST CHECK TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE.

EVERYTHING IN ORDER? NO PUN INTENDED.

GOOD. IT WAS AWFULLY GENEROUS OF YOU TO LOAN US HARRY...

I MEAN, YOUR ABBOT, LIKE THIS.

YES, I SUPPOSE JUSTICE IS THE POINT HERE.

YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO WHEN THE TIME COMES.

OH.

YES, SOMETHING TO WARD OFF THE CHILL, EH? GOOD MAN.

IT SHOULDN'T BE LONG NOW. HERE, HOLD THIS.

GOOD THINKING. IT'D NEVER OCCUR TO ME...

TO TURN SOMETHING LIKE THIS INTO A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE.

WHAT SHALL WE DRINK TO? CATCHING THE CULPRIT?

- HOW ABOUT HARRY? - HOW ABOUT... LAURA?

TO LAURA.

FUNNY THING ABOUT WINE.

SOME YOU ENJOY WHEN THEY'RE YOUNG, IMPUDENT, BRASH.

OTHERS MELLOW WITH AGE. AND THEN THERE ARE SOME...

THAT NEVER LOSE THEIR MYSTERY, NO MATTER WHEN YOU FIND THEM.

HERE'S TO... MYSTERY.

NOW!

SO, WERNER. JUST AS I SUSPECTED, EH?

BITTER ABOUT CLAUDE'S SUCCESS, YOU MURDERED THE ABBOT...

AND USED HIM TO CRUSH THE EXPANSION.

I KILLED NO ONE! THERE'S NO SENSE IN LYING.

WE KNOW YOU TOOK THE BODY FROM THE WINERY LAST NIGHT.

NEIN. I STEAL A BARREL OF WINE TO TEST,

TO ANALYZE THIS CABERNET.

AND WHAT DO I FIND? HIM. DEAD, GOTT IM HIMMEL.

BUT YOU TOPPLED THE BARRELS DOWN ON THEM BEFORE YOU RAN.

I WAS FRIGHTENED. I THINK MAYBE YOU CAME...

TO BLAME WERNER FOR THE BODY, OR KILL HIM TOO, YES?

AH, YES, UH, COME HERE.

YOU THINK HE'S LYING? I DON'T KNOW. WHAT HE SAYS MAKES SENSE ENOUGH,

AND I CAN'T FIGURE WHY HE'D KILL THE ABBOT.

YOU MEAN, IF HE WAS DESPERATE ENOUGH TO COMMIT MURDER...

WHY NOT KILL CLAUDE HIMSELF?

- NOW! - WHO'S THERE?

A LITTLE LATE FOR RIDING, DON'T YOU THINK, MRS. VANDERMEER?

JUST AS I VERY NEARLY SUSPECTED.

ANXIOUS TO GET CLAUDE BACK UNDER YOUR THUMB,

YOU KILLED THE ABBOT AND USED HIM TO POISON CLAUDE'S DEAL.

- THAT'S A DAMNED LIE. - WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE, MRS. VANDERMEER?

ALL RIGHT! I WANTED CLAUDE'S DEAL TO FALL THROUGH.

I THOUGHT IF IT DID HE MIGHT COME BACK TO ME.

IS IT SO WRONG FOR A MOTHER TO WANT THAT?

- IT IS IF SHE KILLS FOR IT. - I DIDN'T KILL ANYONE. I MOVED HIM, BUT I DIDN'T KILL HIM.

- THEN WHERE DID YOU GET THE ABBOT? - FROM HIM.

I WAS ON MY WAY INTO THE PRESS CONFERENCE WHEN I SAW HIM COME OUT WITH IT.

I FOLLOWED HIM THROUGH THE WOODS ON ARNOLD,

AND WHEN HE STOPPED, I PULLED IT OUT OF THE TRUNK AND PUT IT BACK IN THE WINERY.

THEN I CAME BY THE NEXT DAY TO WATCH THE FIREWORKS.

THAT WAS THE LAST I SAW OF IT UNTIL NOW.

YES. EXCUSE US, WILL YOU, PLEASE?

WELL?

IT ALL TRACKS. WHAT DO YOU MEAN, IT ALL TRACKS?

THIS PLAN WAS SUPPOSED TO ISOLATE THE KILLER, REMEMBER? LOOK.

WE GOT HARRY BACK FROM THE MONKS. MM-HMM.

THE MONKS GOT IT FROM WERNER. WERNER GOT IT FROM US.

WE GOT IT FROM WHERE THE MOTHER HID IT.

THE MOTHER GOT IT FROM WILSON. SO, HARRY MAKES FRIENDS EASILY. NOW WHAT?

WE STILL DON'T KNOW HOW IT GOT INTO THE VAT...

OR WHY SOMEONE WOULD KILL THE ABBOT IN THE FIRST PLACE.

OH.

SHH. WE DRAW ANY MORE OF A CROWD UP HERE,

WE'LL HAVE TO THROW A DINNER PARTY.

WHAT'S HAPPENING, STEELE? JUST PASS THE WINE...

AND PRAY THAT HARRY DIDN'T COME FROM A LARGE FAMILY.

NOW!

COME HERE. GOT YOU.

CLAUDE!

JUST AS I... NO, I NEVER SUSPECTED HIM AT ALL.

LET HIM GO. MOTHER. WERNER. WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

THE QUESTION IS WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

- AND WEARING THE ABBOT'S ROBES? - I DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER THAT.

YOU KILLED THE ABBOT AND PUT HIS BODY IN THE VAT TO SABOTAGE YOUR OWN EXPANSION, EH?

- THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. - THAT'S NOT ALWAYS THE DECIDING FACTOR IN THESE CASES.

BUT WHY WOULD HE WANNA SABOTAGE A CHANCE TO EXPAND ON HIS OWN CABERNET?

- THAT'S NOT HIS WINE. IT'S HIS WINE. - WHAT DID YOU SAY?

I SAID THAT'S NOT HIS WINE, IT'S... IT'S HIS WINE.

HMM. I'VE DONE IT AGAIN, HAVEN'T I?

- YES, MR. STEELE, YOU HAVE. - I TOLD YOU, WILSON.

THERE WASN'T GOING TO BE ANY EXPANSION, WAS THERE?

BECAUSE THAT PRIZE-WINNING CABERNET WASN'T YOURS.

IT WAS REALLY MADE BY THE MONKS.

YOUR LAND WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH FOR THOSE GRAPES. WERNER KNEW THAT.

I STARTED BUYING WINE FROM THE ABBOT A FEW YEARS AGO,

JUST A LITTLE AT FIRST.

LAST SEASON AT THE COMPETITION, I ENTERED SOME UNDER MY OWN LABEL.

I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS GONNA TAKE FIRST PRIZE.

YOU TRIED TO CONVINCE THE ABBOT TO GO ALONG WITH YOUR EXPANSION.

BUT WHEN HE FOUND OUT WHAT YOU'D BEEN UP TO...

HE THREATENED TO EXPOSE THE WHOLE THING.

SO YOU KILLED THE ABBOT AND HID HIS BODY IN THE VAT, EH?

IF WILSON HADN'T STUMBLED INTO IT AND TAKEN

HIM, I WOULD'VE BURIED HIM LATER THAT NIGHT.

SPEAKING OF WHICH, UM...

YOU THINK WE SHOULD, UM...

SO LONG, HARRY. PEACE, HARRY.

THE RUNNING'S OVER, OLD BOY. GET A GOOD REST.

LAURA, I REALLY WANT TO THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING.

YOU FOUND HARRY. IF IT WEREN'T FOR YOU,

CLAUDE WOULD'VE RUN AWAY WITH THE MONEY FROM THE FINANCING.

YOU'RE A HERO, WILSON.

HARCOURT AND THE BOARD SEEM TO THINK SO.

THEY'VE GIVEN ME ANOTHER PROMOTION. OH.

SAVE THEM ENOUGH MONEY AND THEY HAVE TO.

LOOK, SOMETIME WHEN I'M IN TOWN,

I'D LIKE TO GIVE YOU A CALL AND...

AND WE'LL HAVE DINNER. I'D LIKE THAT.

OH, ABOUT THIS BOSS OF YOURS... STEELE.

HE'S A NICE GUY, BUT A LITTLE RESERVED.

UH-HUH.

SEE IF YOU CAN LOOSEN HIM UP A LITTLE. A LITTLE.

I'LL TRY.

LAURA, I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS FAN DANCE YOU DID IN ACAPULCO.

AH. I MEAN, JUST HOW... "FANNY" WAS IT?

YOU REALLY WANNA SEE IT, DON'T YOU?

WELL, BEING A CONNOISSEUR OF EXOTIC DANCING,

I ALWAYS LIKE TO EXPLORE NEW FORMS. UH-HUH.

MAYBE SOMEDAY. AH, I SEE.

MM-HMM. EVERYTHING IN ITS OWN TIME AND PLACE, I SUPPOSE.

WELL, NOT EVERYTHING.
