Reads words on screen

This show has touched so many hearts.

And it's been my privilege to play Anne for the last 25 years.

Do you want another angle?

Yeah?

Hey Tegan, over here!

Why'd you make the jump from reality TV to theatre?

Oh!

I just always wanted to try it.

Now make sure you get one of the girls

with our brilliant director!

And our Thursday show-

is almost sold out.

I put it in your piece

that people should get their tickets while they still can.

All right, now-

one of just me and Tegan, yeah?

You can't be serious.

I'm being upstaged by a reality show reject?

Actors.

Thanks everybody!

That's it for photo call.

Are you ready?

LX three going out!

Yeah.

Dress rehearsal starts in fifteen.

Mr. Frecker, before you go-

who's this week's celebrity walk-on?

Well I don't want to give away our secrets.

But if you buy a ticket-

I promise you that you will not be disappointed.

See you Thursday.

Thank you.

Can we just get another shot of the house here?

The tip of the tongue the teeth and the lips.

The tip of the tongue the teeth and the lips.

The tip of the tongue the teeth and the-

Don't mind me!

Got to replace that burnt out bulb now the once.

Sure.

The tip of the tongue the teeth and the lips.

The tip of the tongue the teeth and the-

You take your time.

Oh!

Good luck!

Actually, Jesse-

we don't say good luck in the theatre.

We say break a leg.

Oh right!

Sorry.

Yeah break a leg.

Obviously.

Could have been worse.

I could have said Macbeth.

Rex says break a leg.

Oh thanks buddy!

Joe.

It's so cool that they invited you to take part in this.

Yeah it's actually great to get back to my theatre roots-

and just do a little bit of PR for the department.

Well if you're photographed with Tegan Mansfield-

you'll be in all the gossip blogs.

You say that like it's a good thing.

I seriously hope she doesn't ruin it.

Jesse's obsessed with the show.

He goes like every year.

Yeah I don't understand.

Why do they do the same show every year?

It's tradition okay?

It's tradition.

It's like the Anne of Green Gables of Newfoundland.

It's the first show I saw when I moved here.

He's going to see it again next week.

I think-

he's got a crush on the leading lady.

I do not!

Jesse, you know all the lines.

Oh, I doubt he knows all these ones!

It's a good few changes this year.

You're in for a surprise, my son.

What does he mean by changes?

Uh-just-

This is your five minute call.

Five minutes please.

Thank you.

Okay, we should take our seats!

Why are you dressed like a pirate too?

I'll see you after the show Jesse.

Okay.

Come on pal.

The tip of the tounge the teeth and the lips

Excuse me, sorry.

Friends, family, press.

Welcome to our sneak peek dress rehearsal

of The Shipwreck of the Despatch's 25th year!

I am producer Samuel Frecker.

And this is our director, Lois Labonte.

You privileged few are first to see

the new, untold story of the Despatch.

And even more interestingly is that

after this year's local run-

we will be taking the show on its first ever national tour!

Would you like to say a few words?

Chekhov would say-

there is nothing new in art except talent.

Right.

Well, without further ado-!

Londonderry.

1828.

Two hundred souls set sail

in search of a better life in Quebec.

Ah!

He's good!

But little did they know that I would cause them to wreck.

Wow.

Um-so this is the show you love?

Definitely not.

Stirring choreography isn't it?

Sure!

Deep-!

In the belly of this terrible gale-

let dread Pirate Lancaster tell you a tale.

For never a more compelling tale will you catch

than that of the shipwreck of The Despatch!

One household in the Isle of the Dead

saved hundreds from an ocean grave-bed!

Anne!

And Thomasina!

With Hairy Man, her dog-

will guide us through this story's fog.

Okay well at least they still have Hairy Man.

Thomasina!

There's been a big wreck offshore!

Ready the rowboat!

I said, ready the rowboat, Tommy!

Oh, readying the rowboat!

Shhh.

Not now pal.

Oh my God!

Oh my-!

I can't believe she's gone!

She was such a sweet girl-

even if she didn't know her lines!

Here.

Oh!

It's just awful.

Thank you!

There was nothing we could have done.

She was killed instantly.

Hmmm.

Find it.

Come on.

Excuse me.

Do you have any idea what happened?

It was working perfectly this morning!

But when I called the cue tonight-

it's like the boat had a mind of its own.

It just crashed!

You ever have a problem like this before?

Never!

I check everything before every run!

You did a check tonight?

Not since the tech run this morning!

Frecker had me changing lighting cues all day!

And with all of his changes I just didn't have time to-

It's been a bit of a disorganized process.

That's not an excuse!

These actors trust me to keep them safe!

I failed them!

You know Charlie-

Frecker's been changing things all the time.

I've been rehearsing all week

for what was supposed to have just been a walk on part.

Tegan died.

Died doing what she loved.

In light of this tragedy-

We're cancelling the show?

Somebody's dead.

We need to do an investigation.

I don't want anybody on the stage.

I don't want anybody touching the fly

until we give the go ahead.

Of course.

Nothing will be touched on the fly system

until we do a full check.

But the show must go on!

We open in two days!

I don't think you understand Mr. Frecker.

What Detective Hudson is trying to tell you

is that this show does not go on without our say-so.

We shall prepare for the best.

Rehearsal starts at ten tomorrow.

It's what Tegan would have wanted.

I think Tegan would have wanted to live.

Can I come through with you?

I need to take a look at the fly lines.

I'm afraid this area is off-limits for now.

It just-

I don't know how this happened!

We're going to figure out what went wrong, I promise.

Uh-do you know what this is?

It's a record of the install and my safety checks-

how many weights on each line-

the time I last checked them-

the condition they're in.

Okay I'm going to need to borrow this.

How much did the rowboat weigh?

317 pounds.

And the counterweights

are supposed to balance the set piece.

Right?

Yes.

They make it so the line doesn't move unless you pull on it-

even if you release the brake.

Who would have been in this area

between the safety check and the dress?

Anyone in the theatre has access.

And where were you?

Running lighting cues with the designer.

And then the photo call.

Why?

You've had quite a shock.

You should get some rest.

Thank you for your help.

Hey Sarah.

You find anything?

Yeah the line holding the rowboat was unbalanced.

I think that's why it crashed.

That's a pretty big oversight.

Unless it's not.

There's 150 pounds less here

than is listed in these records

from the install and safety check.

So if that's correct-

Then someone removed the weights

between this morning and tonight?

Pretty hard to remove

150 pounds-

Yeah.

By accident.

So what we're looking at is murder.

Well I don't care if nobody likes me.

I'm not here to make friends.

I'm here to win.

You don't win by making friends-

and being sweet-

and making alliances.

You win by pretending to make alliances.

And then at the perfect moment-

stabbing them in the back-

so that I go further.

This is right after the episode

where Tegan tries to steal Krissy's boyfriend

in the hot tub by taking off her-

Morning!

Hi, we're just researching the victim.

She seems like someone who may have had a few enemies.

Don't make assumptions, Jesse.

Reality shows are not real.

Producers and editors pump up the drama for ratings.

Everyone has a persona.

I'm not assuming!

I'm just-

you know-identifying potential suspects.

Right.

Do you have fingerprints on the fly system?

No.

I'm going to meet Charlie and Rex at the theatre-

see if I can find the weights that are missing.

And take a look at Tegan's dressing room.

Okay-she may have had a few enemies there.

On that note-

the sound technician recorded some rehearsals

to help Tegan learn her lines.

So I am going to see what sort of juicy gossip-

I mean leads-

I can find on it.

Okay.

In the meantime, I'm going to go back to rehearsal

while they train Tegan's understudy.

I just want to keep an eye on things.

The show's not cancelled?

I mean social media is blowing up about Tegan's death.

No not yet.

And I don't want it to get out

that this is a murder investigation.

Last thing I want is the media jumping all over that.

Okay, let's go.

Well that's thorough.

Marly's got a real penchant for safety.

Sin she couldn't enforce the same attention for detail

when it comes to historical accuracy.

I know!

I know, right?

I mean Thomasina?

Come on!

Anne's supposed to have a brother!

And you only saw the first five minutes.

Yeah, 48 people died.

It just changes the story so much, I mean-

I hear you.

Some shockin'

Can I ask you something?

Did you see anyone backstage near the fly yesterday

before the accident?

It was a dress rehearsal.

Sure, everybody was there.

So everyone's a suspect.

Track it.

Guys, you've got to hear this.

You find something?

Oh did I!

Yeah the sound technician left the actors' mics on

for twenty minutes

after rehearsal ended.

It's like its own reality show!

Listen to this.

No Sam.

I'm done waiting.

We've talked about this.

You need to tell her!

I will.

Just not yet.

You have to give me time!

That's Tegan's voice.

She said Sam.

She's talking to Frecker.

Yeah but who's her?

And what does she need to know?

Sarah?

That's an odd spot to keep a script.

I can see why.

Tegan has all of Anne's lines highlighted.

You think Tegan was trying to take over Joy's role?

Could Tegan have been pushing Frecker

to tell Joy that he was taking the lead role away from her?

If that's the case-

maybe Joy decided it was curtains for Tegan.

I killed the captain!

And he was my brother!

You think I won't kill you too, maiden?

I think it can go bigger.

Are you serious?

Bigger than that?

Just do what feels right for the character.

Yes but-

pump up the drama.

This is theatre-

Right.

After all!

But remember to act natural!

Oh I didn't know-

it was bring your pet to work day!

He's not a pet.

He's a highly-trained law enforcement animal.

Anyway.

You guys have had a lot of change in the production.

I thought maybe you could Rex-

instead of the stuffed dog.

Right!

Yes, I think

having a real-life scene partner

would really make my performance more realistic.

Interesting!

Can he take direction?

Can he?

Rex!

Save the passengers.

He's perfect!

You know what?

Whatever you want!

Let slip the dogs of war!

Got her all fixed up!

Now there will be absolutely no flying!

The boat is just going to glide in!

Now Joe, we're going to have to change your blocking.

Good job partner.

People are going to be careful what they say around Joe.

So you've got to be our extra eyes and ears.

Okay?

Excuse me, Ms. Jamieson?

Can I have a word?

Anything for a fan.

Especially a handsome one.

Oh wow.

Our 20th performance.

That was a good one!

You were there?

Yeah yeah, you know what?

I have been every year since.

I really can't imagine anyone else in the role of Anne.

Oh.

Well you won't have to soon.

They're replacing me after the local run.

I-

I can't believe they'd do that to you after all these years!

All these years playing a 17-year-old?

Tegan would have been

a more age-appropriate Anne.

Well, I mean-

she's no Joy Jamieson!

Well-

Come on!

And you're okay giving up the part?

Mm-hmm.

I am.

I mean I wasn't thrilled

they were giving it to someone so green, but-

Yeah I mean Tegan did seem inexperienced.

Yeah.

I noticed you pushed her last night.

She couldn't find her mark.

Honestly, I don't want to tour.

I love my life in Newfoundland.

My family is here.

And I have a new show coming up.

I'm sorry.

I um-

I've love this show.

And-

to leave-

like after all this time, with this just terrible tragedy-

It's-

Sneaking out of rehearsal early?

Frecker can finish it.

I wanted to ask you a couple of questions.

Um-

What did you think of Tegan as an actor?

That's of concern to the SJPD?

It's of concern to me.

I felt she had a lot of water in her soul.

What does that mean?

It's the opposite of fire.

Oh so if people were thinking

that you cast her in a national tour-

that would be pretty frustrating.

Yeah, it was.

But my opinion on the subject didn't seem to matter.

It's Frecker's world after all.

The rest of us just live in it.

How very Zen of you.

Has Frecker always been such a hands-on producer?

Hardly.

He's taken a sudden interest since he was bewitched.

You mean by the lure of Tegan's celebrity?

Call it that if you want.

I'm not one for television.

But I've seen the girl's show.

She had ways

of getting what she wanted.

And besides-

Frecker's always had a thing for blondes.

TV Announcer: This fall-

we're getting ready to shack up on Bungalow of Love.

Sarah.

Hey, you find anything out about the counterweights?

The missing 150 pounds from the rowboat

are still unaccounted for.

Maybe the killer took them off site?

Mmm.

All these hours of watching Tegan on screen-

only for her story to end right in front of us.

I mean it's just hard to believe.

And from what I can tell-

behind the scenes-

her Bungalow co-stars seemed to liked her.

I wonder who she was when she wasn't playing a part?

Well she wasn't as well-liked by her co-stars in the theatre.

Did Joy tell you that?

Yeah.

But she has a one-woman musical opening next month.

Oh so she must have been planning for months!

Right.

But I don't think the conversation

between Tegan and Frecker

was about her taking over Joy's role.

I mean Frecker had to know

that she wasn't planning on touring with the show.

Frecker's married, right?

I think so.

Yeah why?

Well Lois told Charlie that Tegan bewitched him

into giving her the lead role.

She seems to think that they were an item.

Okay I will look into Tegan's phone records

for conversations with Frecker.

See if they were closer than producer-actor.

Okay.

One household on the isle of the dead-

One 'ouse'old on the isle of the dead-

One 'ouse'old on the isle of the dead!

Which one do you prefer huh?

You know, I can't rely on you for anything.

Am I interrupting something?

Uh-no!

I was just on my lunch break.

Oh right, sorry.

Well look-

Frecker's all over the news urging people to buy tickets

after the theatre's terrible tragedy.

I mean they're selling like hotcakes.

We didn't even given him the okay to go ahead yet.

Hey.

Jesse, you pull anything off Rex's collar mic?

No not yet.

But I did find something

in Tegan's phone records.

Calls with Frecker.

Okay?

Oodles of them.

All hours.

Long ones.

That sounds like more than a professional relationship.

Well maybe the recording was Tegan trying to convince Frecker

to tell his wife about her.

Which he wouldn't want to have wanted to do.

And now he's capitalizing off her death.

Sounds like motive.

Rex, come on!

We're are fighting through our grief.

The show will be dedicated to Tegan's memory.

As you can imagine-

the cast is very shaken.

Ah!

Here's our latest cast member!

Rex will be playing Hairy Man-

who was the heroic dog

who helped pull victims of the shipwreck to shore.

Say hello, Rex!

Rex is working.

And you and I need to have a word down at the station.

What's this about?

Your affair with Tegan Mansfield.

Please, shut off the camera.

Detective, you don't understand.

We weren't having an affair.

Oh really?

Tegan was my daughter.

No, Sam.

I'm done waiting.

We've talked about this.

You need to tell her.

I will.

Just not yet.

You have to give me time.

That was you and Tegan, three days before she died.

What were you talking about?

Tegan was tired of being a secret.

She wanted people to know that she was my daughter.

But I just didn't know how to break it to my wife.

She didn't know you'd had an affair?

Gloria knew there were dalliances.

But a child?

That's a whole other thing.

I just didn't want to rush it.

But Tegan was pressuring you to.

And that's why you killed her.

To keep her from telling your wife herself.

Kill her?

No, I would never-!

Tegan's death-

it was an accident.

An equipment malfunction.

Our investigation says that's not the case.

I loved Tegan.

I would never do anything to hurt her.

This last day has been unbearable.

Not so unbearable that it kept you

from doubling down on promoting your show.

Do you have any idea how tenuous producing theatre can be?

There was a real chance that

the tour would fall apart after Tegan's death.

I couldn't face losing both my babies on the same day.

Anyone in the company have an issue with Tegan?

Of course not.

Everyone loved her.

Somebody meant for that rowboat to come crashing down.

What about your wife?

Is it possible she found out about your secret

and took matters into her own hands?

Absolutely not!

Gloria's been away all month.

Plus she never steps foot in the theatre.

She's been on me to sell it for years.

If only I'd listened and sold it

when I had an offer in the spring.

Tegan would still be alive today.

One household on the Isle of the dead-

saved hundreds from an ocean-grave bed.

You in for rehearsal again?

Yeah.

Yeah, just a small one.

Lois wants to make a few adjustments

now that we're using a real dog!

Oh!

Hey.

It's nice to have a pup around.

But he doesn't look a thing like the dog

from the actual story.

What do you mean?

A Newfoundland, Hairy Man was.

You don't know that-

I'm guessing that means

you don't know the real story of First Mate Lancaster either.

I just know what the script tells me.

Ughh.

Well he wasn't a pirate, for starters.

And he didn't cause the wreck.

He tried to help the passengers!

Your pup alright?

What is it, buddy?

Rex?

Oh no!

Stay there buddy.

Jeez.

Hold on.

Oh, give me a second here.

Okay.

That's a good job, Rex.

We almost had a fire on our hands.

That's the second time this month

we've had problems with our wiring.

This doesn't look like an accident.

Looks like somebody tampered with that.

Where the hell is Lois?

And why is the generator running?

Well the fuse box was just on fire.

I think you guys need to call an electrician.

I'll take care of it.

Wait hold on.

You said this was the second time

in two months?

Have there been other issues at the theatre?

It's an old building.

Things are always going.

Like what?

Flood last month.

Damaged a ton of costumes.

Don't forget the air conditioning

up and dying in the middle of a heat wave.

It's almost as if someone upset the theatre ghost.

Yeah, something tells me

a theatre ghost is not responsible for this.

We were supposed to go over Frecker's new sound cues

at 9:30.

You know I do morning pages between nine and ten.

And if Frecker wants more changes-

he can discuss them with you himself.

Well I don't think he can, actually.

Last I saw, he was on his way to be questioned by the police.

Why's that?

Is this about Tegan's death?

Has he been arrested?

Frecker is not being detained at this time.

Then I'm sure he'll be in soon-

to discuss strobe lights-

or whatever nonsense he's cooked up this time.

In the meantime, we have work to do.

Let's go.

Come on buddy.

The fuse box was definitely tampered with.

Well thank goodness Rex was there.

Yeah well that's not all.

Apparently there's been a whole host of other issues

at the theatre.

Marly seems to think

it has to do with the building's age.

You don't sound convinced.

Well, given Tegan's death-

Those problems aren't accidents either.

But who'd have reason

to tamper with equipment at the theatre?

Well Frecker was saying that he wanted to sell the building

before Tegan showed up.

Maybe-

the buyer wasn't happy with his change of heart.

So they tried a few acts of vandalism

in order to get Frecker to reconsider.

And when that didn't do the trick-

they upped the ante and tampered with the fly?

Tegan was the big draw for the show.

It would make sense that somebody would think

that killing her would slow ticket sales.

We need to figure out who this potential buyer is.

I might be able to help with that.

It looks like the buildings

on either side of the theatre

were sold six months ago

to a developer named Theo Schwab.

I recognize that face.

He was at the dress rehearsal.

That gives him opportunity.

Jesse, can you get me an address?

Oh yeah.

I can do you one better.

His cell phone just pinged

west of Quidi Vidi lake in Pleasantville.

Great.

Rex.

Ah, he looks like he's up to no good.

Let's check it out.

Well that sure looks like breaking and entering to me.

You know what to do pal.

Ahhh!

Aghh!

Aghhh!

That's enough pal.

Theo Schwab?

We need to have a talk.

Look, this is all a big misunderstanding.

Oh so you weren't breaking into private property?

Sit down.

Now what were you planning to do

with all of this?

It's not what you think.

I'm a developer.

Tundra Properties?

I'm sure you've heard of us.

Here.

No?

Well, I'm in talks to buy the building.

I was inspecting the condition of the property.

Were you inspecting the condition

of the Calvert Theatre as well?

No idea what you're talking about.

Oh you were planning to buy that too.

But Sam Frecker-

he changed his mind.

Not the end of the world.

There's lots of other properties out there.

Yeah.

But that's the only one keeping you

from building an entertainment complex on that block.

Coincidentally, they've been having a few issues lately.

There was a flood.

Somebody was-

tampering with the wiring.

Look.

We have your fingerprints on the fuse box.

You're on the hook here.

Okay.

Maybe I did a little futzing to give Frecker a nudge.

I thought if bills started piling up-

maybe he'd be persuaded to sell.

Mmm.

But when he wasn't persuaded-

you decided to go after Tegan Mansfield?

What are you talking about?

That was an accident, right?

No no no.

That was murder.

See, somebody tampered with the fly system.

Wait and you think-?

It wasn't me!

I don't even know what a fly system is!

You were at the theatre that night.

Along with thirty other people!

You had reason to want the show to fail.

I could care less about the show!

It's the building I want!

Look.

I messed with the fuses, I admit it.

But I did not hurt that girl.

Aghhhh!

Bark all ye want!

Not one passenger is getting in to shore until I get me gold!

Remind me not to get on his bad side.

Joe or Rex?

Oh both, for sure.

Hey take it easy pal.

Hey what did Theo Schwab have to say?

He copped to the vandalism.

But he claims he doesn't even know what a fly is.

Do you believe him?

Well, I mean-

he's slippery.

But I don't think he's a killer.

Besides, he cares about the building.

He's not interested in the show.

Yeah I wish more people had that attitude.

Uh, what do you mean?

This year's Despatch is a wreck.

If you thought drowning at sea was bad-

wait until you see this show.

Oh, Joe.

I'm sure-

they don't mean your performance.

There are comments like this

on every single article about the show.

I'd throw myself overboard if I were this cheesy pirate

they've added to this revisionist history.

So insensitive.

The show is not even open yet.

How can so many people have an opinion on it?

Well they're sock puppets.

Sorry?

Yeah yeah.

They're fake online personas create by a single user

to influence public opinion.

So someone with an axe to grind.

Maybe the same someone who tampered with the fly?

The question is who.

You know, a handful of these

were posted this morning

before 10:00 am

from an IP address belonging to Dunne's Donuts.

I'll see if I can get the CCTV.

No there's no need Jesse.

I think I know who posted them.

Miss Labonte won't like this.

Well if she has an issue with it-

she can take it up with Superintendant Donovan.

Come on pal.

Okay Rex.

Yeah?

Sarah.

The missing counterweights.

This doesn't make any sense.

Why would Lois

try and sabotage the show?

She's been directing it for years.

Well maybe it has something to do with this.

The Seagull.

It's full of notes.

A rehearsal schedule, proposed set designs.

Yeah, according to this rehearsal schedule-

this show is supposed to be playing right now.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Do you know anything about this?

Ugh.

It's a right shame.

Miss Labonte had been waiting years to direct that show.

And what happened?

Frecker cancelled it.

Said the Despatch needed extra rehearsal time-

because of the tour.

You're not hitting your mark for your monologues.

If you don't hit your mark, I can't see you.

Okay?

Uh, yeah.

You're not grounded in the penultimate scene.

So why don't you try rocks in your shoes again?

Okay?

Take the air out of it.

Just take it out.

Everyone please.

Pick up your cues!

No!

No no no, we don't need you today!

We're working with the puppet!

You're work's done for the day, Lois.

And why is that?

You're under arrest for the murder of Tegan Mansfield.

Frecker has been calling non-stop

to see if the show can still open as planned.

Hey, where are we at with Lois?

She admits to writing the negative comments-

but swears she had nothing to do with the fly.

Claims that somebody must've planted the weights

in her office.

But she had motive.

Her cancelled Seagull show.

And it was obvious

she didn't like Tegan.

Was there a window

where she could've removed the counterweights from the arbour?

Yeah, cell phone records put her at the theatre for an hour

the day of the accident when she was the only one there-

according to the security logs.

And listen to what I picked up from Rex's collar mic.

No, this has got to be the end of the Despatch.

Between Tegan and those comments I posted-

there's no way the show can continue.

So hopefully we can start rehearsing as soon as next week.

Taken together it's pretty damning.

I don't know.

I wish I had a confession.

But under the circumstances-

I'm comfortable with letting the show go on.

Oh yes!

What-I'm excited to see Joe in his big scene.

Yeah you too, Rex.

You too.

Could I have everyone's attention please?

Uh-

I know it's been a hard few days.

And I appreciate all your perseverance.

Tegan wasn't just a company member.

She-

she was my daughter.

Didn't see that one coming.

Tegan would want the tour to go on.

And so it will-

with our wonderful Joy Jamieson

continuing on in the role-

she originated.

Yes, Joy.

We dedicate tonight to Tegan-

and to the Newfoundlanders whose lives we honour with our show.

I want to pay special tribute to the descendants

of this tragedy who work alongside us.

Aislinn.

Billy.

Justina.

And of course, Sean-

whose great-great- great grandfather

will be played tonight by Superintendent Joe Donovan.

All right everyone.

This is your fifteen minute call.

Fifteen minutes till showtime!

Uh, here we go again.

Cue light four.

Go.

Cue Donovan.

Go.

Deep in the heart of this terrible gale-

let dread pirate Lancaster tell ya a tale.

For never a more epic tale will you catch

than this of the shipwreck of The Despatch!

One household on the Isle of the Dead

saved a hundred lives from an ocean grave-bed.

Anne!

What's going on?

They can't find Joy!

Cue Joy!

Go!

Anne Harvey!

She was only seventeen years old!

Fire!

Everybody stay calm!

Stay in your seats while we contain the fire!

Joy, can you hear me?

What happened?

Who did this to you?

I was checking my props in the cabin.

He was there.

Who?

Who was there?

He said-

we have to stop the show.

That we're not telling the real story anymore.

The real story-

what are you talking about?

Wait wait.

Whoever did this was motivated by the changes in the show.

It wasn't Lois.

Sean.

The maintenance guy.

Why would Sean do something like this?

Jesse said-

Frecker changed his ancestor from victim to villain.

The pirate captain.

He was furious.

Easy there pup.

Nice pup.

Ah ah ah!

Looks like the jig is up Sean.

Good boy.

I didn't want to kill Tegan.

I just needed Frecker to cancel the tour!

I couldn't let the country think that this was

the real story!

Okay, that's enough Sean.

Let's go.

He turned my great- great-great grandfather

from a hero to a pirate!

A man who killed his brother!

He made a mockery

of our history!

And you let him!

Liars!

Vultures!

All of you!

Who gave you the right to change our story?

Take him.

Come on.

Hey.

You know, I thought updating the Despatch

was going to make Tegan a star.

But all it did was get her killed.

And now Joy.

How is she?

She's going to be fine.

She's going to be released from the hospital tomorrow.

Thank goodness.

Will the tour still go on?

If it does, there's not going to be any pirates.

I've learned my lesson.

Truth makes the best story.

As a long time fan-

I'm very happy to hear that.

Well we'll be first in line to buy tickets.

Well there won't be any need for tickets.

I want you two on stage-

opening night!

What do you say, Rex?

I think Rex and I have had enough of the spotlight

for the time being.

Isn't that right pal?

Ah.
