Original subtitles

Okay, well, I think I found a problem.

The ground wire's come loose from the harness.

You know, this is not how I expected

- to spend my morning off, Mark. - Yeah.

I owe you a coffee.

Better be a fancy coffee.

What does the phone say?

Well, right now, it doesn't say anything.

Let's see.

Here we go. Okay, it says we need a rivet tool.

And we need to use it to make a new connection

on the mainframe.

Are you sure about this?

Internet doesn't lie.

What if you don't have a rivet tool?

Rex. Can you leave it to the professionals, please?

You want to tie him up and throw him in the trunk?

Okay, Jesse. Hit it.

I think we know who the real professionals are.

All right! High five.

Here's the old man.

Jaden.

You know Dad hates being called old.

I'll speak for myself, Allen.

And you might stick to correcting your own mistakes.

Help yourself, son.

5:00 somewhere, right?

Yeah, should be in the Devereaux family crest.

Now where's your sister?

I can't abide tardiness.

Should really try to hit the gym, Dad.

It's great for anxiety.

Says the fitness guru.

Ten minutes late isn't really late in the real world.

Melanie, if you were still in the guest house

in the job I gave you, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

And I wouldn't have a life!

All right, what's with this emergency anyway?

I have a business to run.

Something to do with these, maybe.

There's one for each of us.

- It's an invitation. - To a surprise gin tasting.

And I expect you all to be there.

No excuses.

No exceptions.

Wait.

You're opening up a new expression?

Don't you think as head of marketing,

- I should have known about this? - Well, if he didn't tell the CFO,

- why would he tell you? - Wait a minute, Dad.

You're making a new gin?

A little behind on the time, sis?

It happens when you bail on your whole family.

Quiet!

All of you.

Wouldn't be a surprise if I told you all about it

now would it?

And gin is just the excuse for tomorrow's gathering.

I'm about to make a big announcement.

Something that will affect you all.

To Devereaux Gin!

Crying over the books again!

And I heard things were looking up.

Yeah, the, the fumes from the vat get to me.

And the salt air.

Well, let's just hope you're not sobbing

when you read my next review.

Hey, Jaden.

Is that Simone Sawyer?

- What is she doing here? - No idea.

Okay, where the hell is Dad?

I don't know.

Okay, look, let's just get this tasting over with

and then find out what the old geezer has to proclaim.

I haven't seen him in hours.

Typical.

I guess I've got to clean things up, as per usual.

Thank you.

Hello, everyone!

Good evening and welcome to Devereaux Distillery.

And on behalf of my father and my siblings...

And don't you forget about me!

And how can we forget our master distiller, Grant McGovern?

As hard as we may try.

But please, without further ado,

this gin will not taste itself.

Now grab another glass.

And follow me.

This way into the distilling room.

Okay, everyone, keep coming.

Please, please, please watch your step.

Beautiful.

All right, we're going all the way in the back here.

What is it?

Is that blood? My God!

Dad?

- Synced and corrected by chamallow - - www.addic7ed.com -

- Good morning, Jesse. - Mark.

Give me the rundown. What have we got?

Okay, well, Wilhelm Devereaux...

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

... Patriarch of Devereaux distillery found dead.

Family run business.

- Word is, he was a bit of a tyrant. - Okay.

And there was some kind of function?

Yeah. It was a surprise tasting party

for this new blend they have coming out.

Most of the guests have been interviewed and released.

Anyone see anything of interest?

But all said that Wilhelm was expected

- to make some big grand announcement. - Regarding?

No one had any idea.

He's got three grown children.

They all figured it was supposed to affect them in some way.

So, we're holding them and the master distiller to be interviewed.

Okay, great, you want to split them up after I look at the scene?

Yeah, yeah. Sarah's in the distillation room doing preliminaries.

Devereaux Distillery.

- What do they make, whisky? - Gin, exclusively.

They've made an excellent product for decades.

Traditional, pine forward, yet zesty and crisp.

You really know your gin.

I read the back of the bottle.

Sarah, walk me through it. What do you know so far?

Blunt force trauma to the back of the head

and shattered glass here on the floor.

It appears a full bottle of gin was the weapon.

Okay, so someone struck him from behind, here.

But judging by the blood smears on the floor...

He was then dragged to the vat

where he was shoved in head first.

I'll know more after the autopsy.

I'll be able to confirm cause and time of death.

Looks like the Devereaux's aren't the only ones with a nose for gin.

What is Rex up to?

I don't know.

Jesse said that the party was for a new recipe.

Send word when you've cleared out of here.

I want to see what Rex can pick up

- when he's got the scene to himself, okay? - Okay, will do.

Here, Rex. Let's go.

I have no idea what my father was set to announce, okay?

He said he wanted it to be a surprise.

Was that unusual behaviour for your father, Jaden?

No behaviour is unusual for my father.

He's a self made man.

You know, trusted his gut, and acted accordingly.

And you? You work here at the distillery?

I'm the CFO, the chief financial officer.

I run the business side of things.

Do you think your father's announcement

- might have been about the business? - What else?

That's all my father cared about,

was Devereaux Gin.

And the family, of course.

Willhelm was supposed to make an announcement.

Did you know about this?

I had no idea what was coming.

I worked for that man for 30 years.

I gave up trying to understand him decades ago.

Do you think he might have been retiring, selling the business?

Bah! Wilhelm?

Sell?

He'd rather die than give it to anyone else,

including those kids of his?

No.

Whatever he was planning to say,

must have had something to do with that hipster swill

he was going to befoul the company name with.

So you weren't involved in developing the new recipe?

Out with the old guard, I guess.

Yeah.

Always together in spirit.

To Wilhelm!

- Here you go. - I had no idea what my dad

was planning to announce.

I didn't even know there was a new gin until I got the invite.

So, you don't work at the company?

No, not anymore.

I left a couple months ago.

Started my own business.

- A rival gin? - God forbid.

All natural skincare products.

Locally sourced.

Why the big change?

Dad just had me doing desk work.

It was time to make my mark

and I hoped Island Aesthetics would do just that.

You had no idea what the announcement was about?

Yeah.

I was hoping Dad was announcing his retirement.

Handing the ring to us kids.

Let us make him proud.

- So, you're sales and marketing here? - Yeah, yeah yeah.

Up against the large producers every day

for distribution, shelf space, foreign markets.

- That must be a battle. - And one I intend to win.

I would do everything in my power

to honour my father's legacy

and keep this distillery alive.

I owe it to him.

Sarah said he was hit with a full bottle of gin.

I guess it must have evaporated.

Okay, Rex. You've got the place to yourself now.

Show me what we missed.

What is it, pal?

Mark! What are you guys doing up there?

Rex picked up a scent in the distillery room.

The murderer could have got gin on his shoes

and then came back out here.

Then climbed up there?

Apparently.

It's somebody's suit jacket.

Allen, you, recognise this?

No, no no. I don't think so.

Yeah, that's kind of strange because your,

your invite's in the pocket.

Dad got me to fill a couple of bottles

of the new expression

to give to the press for review.

I spilled some and didn't want to stink of gin all day.

So, you hid your jacket in some old barrels?

You never met my father.

He could freak out over the smallest thing.

Is that what happened?

He was angry with you?

So, you retaliated?

Are you suggesting that I drowned my father

in a vat of his own gin?

How could I do a thing like that?

Well, you live with him.

Work for him. I mean, he's a difficult man.

Could be a bit of a pressure cooker.

I admired my father more than anyone.

And I can't...

I can't believe what happened to him.

Inviting Simone Sawyer

must have been some kind of curse.

Should I know that name?

The world-renowned spirits critic.

One good review from her

and it could launch a gin worldwide.

No amount of advertising I'd buy could compare.

But you're surprised that Sawyer was there?

Shocked

would be the better word.

Let's just say,

we have history.

She hated my father.

Sorry to interrupt.

Your lawyer, I presume?

One of many on a Devereaux retainer.

We'll be leaving now.

Before you go, Allen, um...

I'm not buying your jacket story.

If you're involved in this, you should tell us now.

To the contrary, Detective.

This interview is over.

So, you think Allen knows more than he's saying?

I would bet money on it.

Let's keep digging,

see what this announcement was about.

Meanwhile, can you look into a spirits critic who was at the party?

Yeah. Yeah, Simone Sawyer.

She left before the body was discovered.

So, before police arrived?

Yeah, she hasn't been interviewed.

Find her.

Any connection to Devereaux.

Allen said there was bad blood.

Sarah has the path results.

I'll be back.

Time of death was at least an hour after he was found.

Blunt force trauma was evident

but it wasn't the cause of death.

So, the blow to the head didn't kill him?

No. No occipital fracture, no brain bleed.

Looks like Devereaux did in fact, drown in his own gin.

So, he was alive when someone dragged him across the floor

and submerged his head in a vat. Cold.

- Decisive. - Well, but the attack may have begun

with pure rage. I mean, from a profiling perspective

it is multilayered.

And I found something else of interest.

Wilhelm was suffering from congestive heart failure.

Along with the gin, there was a significant buildup

of fluid in his lungs.

You're saying he didn't have much time to live?

Months. A year maybe.

I'll contact his physician.

See if Wilhelm was even aware of his prognosis.

That makes you wonder who else might have known

and why you would kill a man

who was on his way out already.

I saw the path report.

The deceased didn't have long to live?

Sarah's checking with Wilhelm's physician

to see if he was aware of the fact.

Maybe that had something to do with his announcement,

him selling the business. Passing it on to his kids.

- Retiring. - No one interviewed believes

he'd ever give up the company.

Yeah, well maybe someone made that decision for him.

Hey, I tracked that info on Simone Sawyer, the spirits critic.

Turns out she has a long history

of giving Devereaux Gin terrible reviews.

She compared Grant McGovern's traditional blend

to paint thinner with hints of artificial Christmas tree.

Wow.

So the question is,

why would Devereaux even bother inviting her to his gin tasting?

Yeah, that's going to be my first question.

Come on, Rex.

Mind me asking how you ended up at the party?

I have no idea why Devereaux invited me to the tasting

or what he was going to announce.

We weren't exactly close.

After the terrible reviews you've given his gin in the past?

In my humble opinion,

Devereaux Distillery has always been all talk, no gimlet.

Until now, that is.

Well, how's that?

The new expression is excellent.

Top of its class.

And with my effusive review,

it will take the international market by storm.

You seem pretty sure of that.

What makes the new gin so special?

Now that is another mystery.

See, all gin is just vodka

with a series of botanicals added in.

So citrus, herbs, spices.

But it's exactly what you add

that makes a good gin excellent.

So, what was added?

That's the million dollar question.

I can't quite define the singular note

at the back of the palate.

It's something unusual,

distinct

and distinctly unlike anything

that Devereaux's so-called master distiller

could ever brew up.

You mean Grant McGovern?

You don't think that he was involved

in developing the new recipe?

No. According to rumour, totally shut out.

So, my guess is that Wilhelm was going to announce

out with the old, in with the new.

And as we both know, Grant is as old and as stale

as a martini with no olive.

Got to take this.

Thank you.

Sarah, what have you got?

Yeah, Devereaux's physician got back to me.

She said she told Wilhelm about his failing heart only a week ago.

Did she know if he was planning to tell anyone?

Yeah, his estate lawyer.

Said he was making significant changes to his will.

Have Jesse track that.

See if Wilhelm was going to follow through.

- Okay, will do. - And check in on Melanie Devereaux.

She had a falling out with her father recently.

Might have been worried she was being cut from his will.

Okay.

Thanks, Sarah.

I was told this morning

by both the estate lawyer and the doctor.

So, you didn't know about your father's diagnosis

or his plans to change his will?

My father always pledged to leave the company

to all three of us.

I just can't believe he'd renege on that.

But,

you seem to be searching

for something in your father's office.

Are you concerned he made notes on his final wishes?

If he did, I would want them honoured.

Even if you were cut out?

Melanie, are you sure you didn't know about any of this

- before his death? - I told you I didn't.

But you and your father had a recent falling out.

Excuse me?

Are you implying that I would harm my father

before he had a chance to disinherit me?

Someone killed your father.

And they may have been motivated

by his sudden intention to change his will.

All I've ever wanted was for my father to take me seriously.

Not scoff at every single one of my ideas.

It was never about the money!

Never!

So, you think that Wilhelm was going to announce my ouster?

What then? I killed him?

Well, being pushed aside after all these years,

could make a man snap, do something rash.

I would never stoop so low.

I am a man of integrity through and through.

What is up with him?

What, does the dog like coffee?

Yeah, I'm not sure it's java in your mug.

Rex has got a nose for the new gin.

Tattletale.

Well, I have to admire your taste.

The gin is excellent.

I didn't think you were a fan of the new recipe.

No, that's until I tasted it.

And now I understand why Wilhelm was so excited.

He said it was going to change everything.

When did he say all this?

A couple of weeks ago, when all the secrecy began.

You know, he wouldn't even tell me what was in it.

It's nothing I'd ever used before.

Singular.

Some kind of...

unique botanical.

Simone Sawyer said the same thing.

She's going to give the new gin a glowing review.

Now it all makes some sense.

- What's that? - Well, I did not understand

why Wilhelm had invited her to the tasting.

Even gave her a bottle in advance!

You wondered why he would risk another bad review.

But if the gin is excellent, where's the risk?

You don't understand how critics like Simone work.

Only bad reviews

- are free. - And good ones?

Yeah, well...

I think my old pal Wilhelm lowered his standards, and...

Got out the grease.

So, Melanie claims to have known nothing

about her father's intention to change his will?

She denies that she feared he was going to make an announcement

she was being cut out.

Like her brother Allen,

we have no concrete evidence linking her to the crime.

Maybe Jesse's got something for us.

Apparently, Simone Sawyer was on the take.

Yeah, so...

I've been combing through security footage

of both the estate and the distillery,

and I found this.

So, here's Simone leaving the Devereaux house

the day of the tasting party.

Bottle of the new gin in one hand

but what's in her other hand?

An envelope?

Could be the invite.

Could be cold, hard cash.

Grant was surprised that Wilhelm would break his principles

and cave to the old payola.

Could be interesting to find out if and why he did.

Yeah, my thoughts exactly.

Come on, Rex.

Let's go!

503.

Hold.

SJPD.

Simone?

Simone?

Envelope full of cash still here.

No, Simone!

All right, she's alive, Rex but she needs help.

Go!

Doctors think Simone was poisoned

and are not sure when she'll wake up.

The lab is doing a workup of the Devereaux Gin found at the scene.

They're looking for known toxins.

Okay, well, judging from the label,

it looks like the same bottle Simone left the Devereaux mansion with.

She'd already sampled the gin when we met.

She talked about a unique botanical.

Well, so it couldn't have been poisoned, then.

Plus, there's this.

Hotel surveillance footage of the hallway

outside of Simone's room.

Okay, here she is, leaving her hotel room earlier that day...

To meet up with me. Check the time stamp.

Okay, and then...

Someone's covering their tracks.

To break into her room and poison the open bottle.

Any prints?

Only Simone's, on the bottle and the envelope of money.

Well, hotel management is asking all their staff

to check their keycards. One may have been stolen.

What's the common thread?

What motivated both attacks?

Well, everything leads back to the announcement. Right?

What Wilhelm was going to say?

We may have to go back further than that.

Wilhelm told Grant that the new ingredient in the gin

changed everything.

Yeah, but nobody seems to know what it is.

Could that be what the announcement was about?

Well, it can't hurt to find out.

The lab could isolate it,

but I mean, it would take weeks.

Well, no offence to your department

but there is a quicker way.

Let's put Rex to the test.

You actually found a dog-sized bar?

It's technically a media console

destined for the police auction but, you know,

I couldn't resist.

Okay, so the goal,

is to make sure that Rex

can distinguish the different blends.

Well, it looks straightforward

So, each glass contains a different gin?

Yes. And only one contains the new Devereaux expression.

So, telling it from the rest

means that Rex can pick out the one secret ingredient.

Exactly.

And here, I'm gonna...

I'm going to let you sniff it right from the bottle.

Got that?

Okay, Rex.

Time to put your nose to the test.

Did he get it? Is he... ?

Is he right?

100%.

Wow.

- Good boy! - Yeah!

Rex can definitely isolate the secret ingredient.

Now, if you could just tell us what it is,

that'd be great.

Well, I guess we're going on a hunt!

Call me if you and Jesse dig up anything new.

Okay.

Bah!

He's not going to damage anything.

He's a highly-trained officer of the law.

What is he looking for?

Well, that is exactly what we're here to find out.

He's on to something. He's picked up the scent

of the secret ingredient.

What's in there?

Equipment, ingredients.

Things that I barely use

but that I would rather not have broken!

What have you got there?

The secret ingredient is...

some kind of weeds.

But what kind?

I've no idea.

I've never seen this botanical before in my life.

Appreciate it.

Hey, hey, hey. Have you heard from Mark?

Yeah! He thinks Rex may have identified

the secret ingredient in the gin.

I'm headed to the lab to prepare to analyse it.

I thought pinpointing the ingredient took weeks.

Well, having a botanical in hand and identifying it

is way faster than trying to identify

one unknown essential oil mixed with others in a bottle of gin.

I'll take your word for it. By the way,

I have been doing a deep dive into the history of artisan gin

and did you know that juniper flavoured spirits

- date back to the Middle Ages? - I did not.

Yeah, monks and alchemists,

they experimented with it for medicinal purposes.

And that eventually led to the gin craze

of the early 17th century

and led to the readily available spirit

being nicknamed Mother's Ruin

which was very popular amongst the female population.

But now we are in a brand new gin craze, okay?

And these artisan companies,

they have grown tenfold over the last ten years.

And the idea is to build this brand

and sell it to these big conglomerates.

You know lock, stock and two smoking gin barrels.

Doesn't sound like that was Wilhelm's idea.

He wanted to keep the family business up and running.

Maybe that's what got him killed.

I still haven't found a connection

between Wilhelm and Simone but I'll keep digging.

Okay. Sounds good.

Just try not to get too deep in the juniper weeds.

Could get lost in there.

Its scientific name is rhododendron groenlandicum.

It's from a plant commonly known as Labrador tea.

So it grows locally?

All across the island and the Big Land.

First Nations people discovered it and used it as tea

and then it was later adopted by European colonists.

Okay, now it's somehow become the secret ingredient in Devereaux Gin.

But it can also be toxic if consumed in

high concentrations.

Toxic enough to leave someone fighting for their life?

Like Simone Sawyer?

I'll alert the hospital of the possibility.

And our own lab is still working

on identifying the toxin in Simone's bottle of gin.

Meanwhile, let's see who knows

about Wilhelm's secret ingredient.

Hold on, someone tried to kill Simone Sawyer

- with some dried up weeds? - Well, that's not confirmed.

But the... the new ingredient in your father's gin is Labrador tea

and there's little doubt the two crimes are connected.

You must have known about this!

Yeah, you were always pressuring Dad

to put out a new artisan gin.

Whooey, marketing gold!

Excuse me for wanting to follow trends.

You would have sold out years ago if Dad let you.

What do you... ? First of all, you need to stop with all that.

Hey man, not right now.

Sorry I'm late. There was a crush at the gym.

Whoah, excuse me!

Does your dog think I have treats or something?

I doubt that's what Rex is looking for.

Do you mind letting him take a look in your purse?

Yeah. I mean, he already is.

Rex.

Island Aesthetics Hand Cream.

Made with Labrador tea.

I'm sorry.

You're saying you found it in Grant McGovern's lab?

Rex did.

And we've confirmed that the secret ingredient

in your father's new gin is Labrador tea.

I can't believe it.

Was that your idea, Melanie?

I mean, it seems like a huge coincidence otherwise

since you're using the botanical, too.

Dad always scoffed at my ideas. That's...

That's why I left the company.

Did you find out that your father had stolen your idea?

That he was changing his will and might cut you out?

Look, I had nothing to do with any of this.

You have to believe me.

I don't care if Dad stole my idea

or was going to take credit for it.

I mean, I just can't believe he finally heard me you know, like,

saw what I was capable of.

That there was more in me than he ever acknowledged.

Knowing that means everything to me.

You think she's telling the truth?

Or she's a great liar.

Yeah, well we've met a lot of those.

She had motive. She had opportunity.

Yeah, but the link between her and Simone is tenuous at best.

We need something stronger.

Someone linked to both attacks.

Hey, guys.

Guess what I found on a Japanese spirits forum?

Jesse's been digging up info on Devereaux Distillery.

He's been digging hard, by the looks of it.

Arigato, auto translate.

What did you learn?

Okay, so there's rumours

that a big Japanese mega-distillery

is interested in buying them out.

Hold on, Wilhelm was thinking of selling?

Everyone we interviewed was adamant

that Wilhelm would never sell.

But there's no evidence that he even knew about the rumoured deal.

So, someone other than Wilhelm was managing the sale.

Any idea who?

Well, I checked the travel records of our key suspects

and guess who flew to Tokyo three times in the past year?

Jaden Devereaux.

CFO and eldest son.

Guess who was in the seat beside him?

Simone Sawyer.

Well, maybe that's why she was going to give the new gin

such a good review. They're in a deal together.

Right she promotes, he sells.

And they both make a killing.

And none of it works with Wilhelm in the way.

Yeah, and with him gone, why keep Simone around?

Right, as CFO, it's his job to limit liability

especially if she's asking for more money

- to keep her silence. - Yeah, but it's all still conjecture.

We've got nothing we can charge

Jaden with.

Sarah's got something.

Hey!

I just got the tox screen results

from the gin found in Simone Sawyer's room.

- Labrador tea? - Not even close. Tetryzoline.

It's almost tasteless.

Lethal if ingested in sufficient doses

and it's a key ingredient in eye drops.

Jaden Devereaux.

But so do millions of other people.

I mean, he could just claim that he was being framed.

Yeah.

Yeah, there's a story there I can't quite read.

I mean, last time, Rex's nose got us out of a dead end.

Maybe he can again.

There's one scent that he hasn't tracked down.

None of us saw it but it was in plain sight.

Okay, ready? Rock, paper, scissors.

You always pick rock. I should know this.

Jesse, bring up that shot of the hotel surveillance camera

- being painted out. - Yeah!

I don't get it, Mark. How is Rex's nose gonna help us with this?

All spray paint is basically the same chemical makeup, right?

Yeah, the most commonly used are alkyds and acrylics.

And it's an easy test to find out which one.

And you've got a sample of the dried paint?

- Of course. - Hold on.

How is any of this useful?

My money is on Jaden for both of these crimes.

Now, let's sniff out the truth and prove it.

Okay, buddy, let's give this a shot.

Go easy. This stuff is powerful.

Got it?

Go track it.

Excuse me!

If you have any more questions,

you should contact our lawyers.

Yeah, Rex and I just wanted to do

a quick sweep of the house.

Then you can get a warrant.

What do you want?

Get back in the house, Allen.

I thought you might be interested

in finding your father's killer.

Of course we're interested.

But there is a limit.

- You can't just... - It doesn't have to come to this, okay?

- Let me talk to him. - Al, no.

- Is that Jaden's car? - No, it's mine.

You sure about this alert, Rex?

Black spray paint.

Look, I've never seen that before.

Is this what you used to cover the surveillance lens

before you poisoned Simone?

No, no, I had nothing to do with Simone.

And what happened with my father was an accident, all right?

- An accident? - Al.

Listen, Mel, I can't have you taking any blame for this.

I'm responsible for my father's death.

Mind if I have a drink?

Hearing all this in the course of an hour,

I think I'll need it.

Allen told you what happened?

Because you questioned me.

Look, I need to set things right.

Melanie had nothing to do with any of this.

Explain how your father's death was an accident.

That afternoon,

before going to the tasting,

I stumbled on my father's notes for his announcement.

I was here, at the family home,

in my dad's office.

He talked about the exceptional new gin,

how he changed his mind about so many new things.

I'd given my whole life

to my father and the company.

But he was changing his will.

He was cutting you out and...

leaving everything to Melanie.

I tried harder than anyone to please him

while every day he put me down.

Yeah, you must have been very angry.

So I confronted him.

And he said such awful things.

Why? What can I do?

Stop bellyaching!

You've whined since you were a little boy.

Pushing me.

Just pushing me.

Why don't you show some Devereaux spirit

and do something for a change?

I just snapped.

I was over in a second.

I just lost control.

So, you admit you struck him on purpose?

Yes.

But I swear he was alive and on the floor when I left.

You didn't call for help?

I know it was wrong, but I was terrified.

I just hid the gin-soaked jacket

and went back to the party.

I never dreamed he'd get up and stumble into a vat of gin.

And that's what you assume happened.

How else did he get there?

Then we all went into the vat room for the tasting

and saw him like that.

I was so shocked. You have to believe me.

I didn't mean for Dad to die.

But it was all my fault.

Well, I'm not sure it is, Allen.

Not entirely your fault.

What do you mean, Detective? How could it not be?

Well, because we didn't share all the forensic evidence with the family.

We know that your father was dragged

- to the vat that he drowned in. - Dragged?

By who?

So, I was convinced it was Jaden.

But that changed when Melanie told me you confessed to her

just an hour ago.

What's wrong with that? It's the truth.

Yeah, but, um...

I mean, I assume that...

Jaden doesn't know about any of this.

No, he's not even home.

So only the person who really poisoned Simone

would have the spray paint. And...

that same person got the idea to pin both crimes on you

once you confessed to killing your father.

Okay, this is insane.

Melanie?

It's ironic.

You had no idea your father was thrilled

with your suggestion for the new gin

when you found him unconscious on the vat room floor, did you?

That he was planning to leave everything to you?

Or that he didn't have long to live?

You just saw an opportunity and took it,

thinking he was going to cut you out.

Did you find out about Jaden and Simone's dealmaking

after the murder?

Used the eye-drops to point to Jaden

so we'd start looking at him for your father's murder, too?

These accusations are insane, and you can't prove any of it.

No. But...

Rex can. You mind if he smells your hands?

Whoever put the spray paint in Allen's car,

- did it in the last hour. - Hey!

I'm home!

Melanie!

Stay away from me, you stupid mutt!

Up on your feet.

You are under arrest for murder

and attempted murder.

I never tried to kill Simone!

She was just supposed to get sick and point the finger at Jaden!

I'm sure she'll appreciate that.

As will your brother.

I was sure it was Jaden who left Dad like that in the vat room.

And that made it okay to drown your own father?

He tore me down my whole life.

I thought he was going to humiliate me

in front of everyone. Make fun of me for trying to break away.

Give it up, Melanie. You're done.

And Rex is no mutt.

He's my partner.

Let's go, pal.

Hey! That's a great job, team!

Allen and Melanie are in custody,

although they're both lawyered up to the hilt.

And I hear Simone's recovering

but she woke up thinking it was Jaden who poisoned her?

I think that was Melanie's plan.

After finding out about the Japanese deal,

she saw a way of pointing suspicion toward Jaden.

Poisoning Simone with the eye drops

made him look like the prime suspect

for his father's murder too.

Then Allen threw a wrench in it by announcing

that he was going to confess

and Melanie put the spray paint in his trunk

to frame him for both.

What a family.

You know, I'm just glad that mine enjoys watching the game

and having a slice of pizza.

Well, at least Jaden's had a change of heart.

He's backing out of the Japanese offer,

keeping Grant on as master distiller

and renaming the new expression Wilhelm's Blend.

That's nice.

Well, let's have a taste.

- This one's got to be to Rex - Yeah.

who has the best nose of all of us.

- To Rex. - To Rex!

Mmmmm!

- Boy! - Wow!

That is something!

What do you think, Rex?
