Glenn from the diner?

about six years ago

00:12:57,888 --> 00:13:00,355
and ordered a bowl
of my famous chili.

And then he sent it back
because there were beans in it.

True chili shouldn't
have beans, he said.

his sorry butt for life.

he tries to give me a gift,

00:19:06,922 --> 00:19:09,455
But my uncle
took me in after that,

486
00:19:09,555 --> 00:19:11,021
and he gave me a job here.

487
00:19:11,088 --> 00:19:13,054
Morgan says
I'm wasting my potential,

488
00:19:13,121 --> 00:19:15,188
but he was there
when I needed him.

489
00:19:17,655 --> 00:19:18,855
-Fred, what...

490
00:19:18,922 --> 00:19:21,188
what happened
to all the first editions?

491
00:19:21,254 --> 00:19:22,388
-I don't know.

492
00:19:22,455 --> 00:19:24,254
I noticed they were
missing last night.

493
00:19:24,321 --> 00:19:26,388
My wife thinks that
they might be the reward

494
00:19:26,455 --> 00:19:28,555
that Uncle Glenn was
talking about in the video.

495
00:19:28,621 --> 00:19:29,888
-I can understand why.

496
00:19:29,955 --> 00:19:31,755
The first edition of
A Christmas Carol alone

497
00:19:31,822 --> 00:19:32,888
is worth big money.

498
00:19:32,955 --> 00:19:34,388
-Yeah.

499
00:19:34,455 --> 00:19:37,388
Morgan says that those books
are our inheritance

500
00:19:37,455 --> 00:19:40,855
and that nobody else
is entitled to them.

501
00:19:40,922 --> 00:19:42,588
But if that's what
Uncle Glenn wanted,

502
00:19:42,655 --> 00:19:44,221
who am I to say otherwise?

503
00:19:51,221 --> 00:19:54,621
-"There sat a jolly giant,

There's a lot of water.

I think a pipe must've burst.

513
00:20:14,154 --> 00:20:15,722
Can you just cover
the front for me?

514
00:20:15,788 --> 00:20:16,722
-Sure.

515
00:20:18,822 --> 00:20:19,722
-Oh, geez.

to deserve this?

Oh, who am I kidding?

518
00:20:25,922 --> 00:20:27,555
I've done plenty
to deserve this.

All of the books

that you can only see
with a UV light.

The same kind of light that
all of us retailers have

-No, I--

I'd rather not say why--

a look at the crime scene,

so I was close.

-Well, if I hadn't,

00:22:41,688 --> 00:22:43,254
your entire store
would have flooded.

Good news is, pipe didn't burst,
it's just loose.

Uh, okay, okay.
I'm on my way.

-You're just... you're just
gonna leave me with this mess?

594
00:22:59,855 --> 00:23:03,121
-There was a break-in
at Glenn's lawyer's office.

595
00:23:03,188 --> 00:23:05,121
-That might have something
to do with Glenn's game!

596
00:23:05,188 --> 00:23:06,488
I should probably go.

597

-No, I'm serious.
Not gonna happen.

SAM: The door was forced,

599
00:23:11,621 --> 00:23:13,154
which means they weren't
worried about noise.

600
00:23:13,254 --> 00:23:15,555
They were planning to act fast.

601
00:23:15,621 --> 00:23:17,755
TALIA: But there's nothing here
worth taking.

602
00:23:17,822 --> 00:23:19,455
-So they left empty-handed?

603
00:23:19,521 --> 00:23:20,922
-Not quite.

604
00:23:20,988 --> 00:23:23,254
-So much for your promise
to stay quiet and observe.

605
00:23:23,321 --> 00:23:26,254
-They took the drive
that had Glenn's video on it.

606
00:23:26,321 --> 00:23:28,388
Strangely, they ignored
the envelope of petty cash

607
00:23:28,455 --> 00:23:30,154
in the drawer right next to it.

608
00:23:30,254 --> 00:23:31,555
-Who else knew
about Glenn's plans?

609
00:23:31,621 --> 00:23:32,755
-Nobody.

610
00:23:32,822 --> 00:23:34,755
Even I didn't know
what was on the video.

611
00:23:34,822 --> 00:23:36,455
I was told there were
five invitations delivered.

612
00:23:36,521 --> 00:23:38,421
Only four are accounted for.

613
00:23:38,488 --> 00:23:41,254
-But wait, there were
five people at the meeting.

614
00:23:41,321 --> 00:23:44,655
Emily, Brooke, Harvey,
Fred and his wife, Morgan.

615
00:23:44,755 --> 00:23:45,988
-Morgan doesn't have an invite.

616
00:23:46,088 --> 00:23:48,154
She's here as part of Fred's.

617
00:23:48,221 --> 00:23:51,288
-Okay.
Thank you.

618
00:23:51,355 --> 00:23:52,988
-So that means there's
another player out there

619
00:23:53,054 --> 00:23:54,621
unaccounted for.

620
00:23:54,688 --> 00:23:57,621
-And for all we know, they have
Glenn's blood on their hands.

621
00:24:05,755 --> 00:24:07,588
must have barely squeezedr

622
00:24:07,655 --> 00:24:09,254
through the door, huh?

623
00:24:09,321 --> 00:24:10,521
It's very impressive.

624
00:24:10,588 --> 00:24:12,688
-Thanks!
Glad you could come.

625
00:24:12,755 --> 00:24:14,455
-I ran into this one
at the diner.

626
00:24:14,555 --> 00:24:15,955
She pretty much insisted.

627
00:24:16,054 --> 00:24:17,254
-[laughs]

628
00:24:17,321 --> 00:24:20,054
Emily, what happened
to your wall?

629
00:24:20,121 --> 00:24:21,888
-Um... oh,
don't even worry about it.

630
00:24:21,955 --> 00:24:25,254
Okay, it looks like each
of our books has three unique

631
00:24:25,321 --> 00:24:27,254
invisible words in them.

632
00:24:27,321 --> 00:24:29,121
So, assuming
the pattern continues,

633
00:24:29,221 --> 00:24:30,621
Fred's book
will have three more.

634
00:24:30,722 --> 00:24:33,588
-Yes, but didn't you say
we're also missing a fifth book?

635
00:24:33,655 --> 00:24:36,588
-Right, but I'm thinking that
the words will form a phrase,

636
00:24:36,655 --> 00:24:38,588
so it's possible
we could still figure it out.

637
00:24:38,655 --> 00:24:41,054
-Hmm!
-[door bells jingle]

638
00:24:41,121 --> 00:24:42,855
-Ah, Fred!

639
00:24:42,922 --> 00:24:44,555
Thanks for coming.
Can I see your book?

640
00:24:44,621 --> 00:24:46,121
-I'm sorry.

641
00:24:46,221 --> 00:24:50,955
I came to tell you that Morgan
and I won't be taking part.

642
00:24:51,021 --> 00:24:53,955
-Are you sure
that's in your best interest?

643
00:24:54,021 --> 00:24:56,621
It seems pretty clear that we're
supposed to solve this clue

644
