[theme music]

Let's go, partner.

What do we know?

We've got two
shots fired

from the
north side.

Target was the Men's
Coxed Four rowing team.

Their cockswain is dead.

We've got a suspected
sniper on the loose.

Jesse: He can't be far.

Based on eyewitness testimony-

two shots came from
the north bank-

according to three
witnesses on the south bank.

Yeah, the sniper
shot at 5:30 AM.

The grounds
keeper called it in.

Jesse: Night patrols
were already present

on the road in
either direction.

We have patrol
units set up

here, here, and here,
with checkpoints

surrounding the area.

So he's boxed in.

Donovan: Yeah,
so we hope.

Here, take this.

Don't worry.

It's just a precaution.

We've got the SWAT
team moving in.

They're going to sweep the
area starting at the water-

and moving
up the hill.

What I want

you and
Rex to do

is follow in behind
them and see if Rex

can pick up a trace
of gunpowder.

Maybe he can also find
the trail from there.

I'll drop you a pin of the
approximate sniper position.

Should be a hundred
metres up the path.

But you cannot
move in until SWAT

deems the area secure.

Sure.

What is wrong
with this thing?

That one's-

not yours.

[Rex barks]

Ah.

Quite the wakeup call.

Yeah, you're telling me.

Meet-

Niko Fermi.

Olympic hopeful in rowing.

He was only
21 years old.

Looks like
a direct hit.

Yeah, right
to the temple.

Severe cranial damage.

At least it
was instant.

Do we have the bullet?

Unfortunately-

it's a straight
through-and-through.

It likely went
into the lake.

It's hard to give you much
more without a full autopsy.

Only thing I can say is
it's a hell of a shot.

Someone knew what
they were doing.

And really wanted
this kid dead.

[Rex whimpers]

Everything just
happened so fast.

Charlie: Yeah.

I know this is
difficult, but-

You guys, did
you see anyone?

Or hear anyone?

Reid: Think hard, guys.

It's important for the detective
to know all the details.

Uh, he gunshots
came from the south.

You're sure?

Damon: Yeah.

We were going east.

And it came
from our left.

Well, we have
three witnesses

that said that the shots
came from the north side.

But-

you know-

adrenaline can mess
with your head.

Reid: We're just lucky

that Adler's leadership
instincts kicked in.

And stopped the shooter
from taking out any more.

Or it already
hit his target.

Why was he
in the cox?

Excuse me?

Well, the victim
looked like he was

at least two
hundred pounds.

Aren't coxes normally lighter?

Boone: Our cox is-

out of town
for the week-

sir.

His grandmother died.

Reid: Sometimes-

during practice runs we put
a heavier man in the cox.

It helps build muscle.

Well, who decides
who the heavy man is?

[cell phone buzzes]

Hudson.

-Donovan: We
finished the sweep.

Get Rex over there while
the scene is still fresh.

Hillside's been secured.

Rex and I are
going to go find

where the shots
were taken.

But do me a favour.

If your boys think
of anything else-

give me a call?

Of course.

Rex.

You mean shot.

Not shots.

There was only one.

I'm sure of it.

Okay, thanks.

Rex.

Okay, buddy.

Get the scent.

[Rex sniffing]

Track it.

[suspenseful music]

What is it, pal?

[Rex barking]

[Echo of Rex barking]

[Rex barks]

[Echo of Rex's bark]

[Rex barks]
[Echo]

No, he couldn't have
shot from here.

The sniper would
have been seen, buddy.

Come on.

[Rex barking]

[Echo of Rex barking]

[Rex barks]

[Echo of Rex's bark]

[crack]

[echo of crack]

Yeah.

I should have
known better

than to second-
guess you, buddy.

Charlie: What if that
second shot was an echo?

How do you mean?

All the witnesses that
weren't on the boat

said that they
heard two shots.

But from where
I'm standing

the echo sounds louder
than the initial sound.

That's not possible.

For acoustic energy
to propagate-

it must excite a
certain amount.

-Not now, Jesse.

I know it's an
auditory illusion.

But it sounds real.

If the witnesses
heard that-

but focused
on the echo-

that was coming back at
them from the north shore-

We're looking in
the wrong place.

Exactly.

The south side
looks pretty wild.

See if anyone
lives there.

Maybe they saw something.

Donovan: Hudson.

We've got another witness.

Charlie: Come on, pal.

Let's go.

[Sabrina crying]

Sabrina Cullen?

Detective Hudson.

My sister just heard.

Her and Niko
were quite close.

Charlie: I'm sorry
you lost your friend.

You were there
this morning?

Yeah, I came to the boat
house for my morning run.

What time was this?

Maybe a quarter
past five.

Did you notice
anything odd?

-No, not at all.

Everyone was here.

Who is everyone?

-All the rowers.

Niko, Boone,
Cash, my brother.

Coach Reid, too.

I understand you
heard the gunfire?

Hey.

I thought it was
a car backfiring.

But I had my
headphones in.

So I just
kept running.

Running where?

Same place I run
every morning.

On the south bank.

Along the waterline, then
up the trail heading east.

Niko waved as he
passed like usual.

Then 30 seconds later
I heard the shot.

And I didn't even
bother looking back.

You didn't know, Sabrina.

I know this
is difficult.

But I need to know
exactly where you were

when the gun
was fired.

I was part way
through my run.

By the big stump, where
it starts to get steep.

And this is important.

I need you to think
very carefully.

Was there one
shot or two?

One.

Do you remember where
you heard it come from?

From which direction?

Yeah, from the south.

The south?

Okay.

Charlie: The sister's statement

also contradicts
the other witnesses.

She heard the
shots coming

from the south
side as well?

Yes, but just
one shot.

I suspect she was
outside the echo chamber.

-That would
make her correct.

Speaking of which-

There are people
living on the south side.

Well, one person.

One dude.

Jerry Auchincloss.

-You think you can
you pin me the location?

Yeah.
-Thanks.

Done.

I'm going to check
it out with Rex.

Easy, buddy.

I'm sure it'll
be nothing.

[gunshot]

Rex!

Ah!

This is Detective Hudson!

SWAT's going to be
here in a few minutes!

Put your gun down

Do you understand?

-I am done with you boys
trespassing on my land!

-Well I'm not
one of the boys!

I'm an officer

Come here.

Hey.

Hey.

[Rex barking]

Be more careful
next time, huh?

Sarah: Wait, hold still.

The bullet only
grazed you.

You got very lucky.

Hey, do me
a favour?

Next time you decide
to follow your gut-

let me know.

You could've gotten
yourself killed.

[Rex barks]

He's right.

If it wasn't
for Rex.

Yeah, thanks, pal.

Well, our man's
in custody.

Hi name is
Jerry Auchincloss.

He's a
Gulf War vet.

His gun?

Donovan: A .357 Magnum

lever action rifle.

It's perfect for
long-range hits.

We suspected the shooter
was high on the hills

in the north.

So we assumed from that
trajectory that the bullet

ended up in the water.

But if he was shooting
from the south side

and he was lower
on the waterline-

The bullet should've ended
up on the north shore.

Rex was trying to tell
me something earlier.

Now I think
I know what.

Come on, pal.

Show us where
the bullet is.

Alright, partner.

One more time.

[Rex sniffing]

Track it.

[Rex sniffing]

Donovan: He's supposed
to smell under the water?

He'll find it.

The shooting was
only this morning.

If the bullet
is here-

Rex should still be able to
pick up traces of gunpowder.

[Rex sniffing]

What's he got there?

The sniper's spent bullet.

Good job, partner.

[Rex barks]

[door buzzer]

This coffee tastes
like swamp piss.

You got any sugar?

You're not in a
position to bargain-

Mr. Auchincloss.

And I don't take kindly
to being shot at.

It needs sugar.

Three.

Please- I got
a sweet tooth.

Why the rowers?

Been here twenty years.

And never had a problem
until them rowers.

Bad enough they
disturb my fishing traps.

But then they
took my hat.

Okay.

Look, I need you
to identify for me-

the man you shot.

That's him
on the end.

Right there.

Wearing all black.

Probably for all the
sneaking around he does.

That damned thief!

You're sure?

-Affirmative.

Come by this
morning for my hat.

05:45 to the dot.

-Can we forget the
hat for a minute?

Did you shoot Niko
Fermi in the head today

at 5:30 in
the morning?

Yes sir.

I was standing there-

in the mud-

smell of rotten
fruit everywhere.

[Rex whines]

I put that sucker
in my sites.

I pulled the trigger.

Bang!

He dropped
like a ragdoll.

I didn't see
any mud.

You're sure that
that's what happened?

Sugar first.

Three.

Please.

[Rex growls softly]

Charlie: Three.

[Rex whines]

No way this
is our guy.

He could have put a
bullet in you, Charlie.

After firing at
least five times.

I don't even think he
knew what he was doing.

-Well, what does
ballistics have to say?

They haven't tied the
bullet to the gun yet.

But they were able to
extract some tissue

from the bullet itself.

It was a match
to Niko.

See?

There you have it.

The guy's got early
onset Parkinson's.

You saw his hands.

He could barely
hold a cup of coffee.

It was a 300 metre shot
at a moving target.

It is a bit fishy.

Charlie: It's
more than fishy.

He did this in
a single shot.

Then he starts talking
about mud and rotten fruit.

It was bone
dry today.

Jesse: I think
I know why.

I pulled Mr. Auchincloss's

medical records
from the military.

And, turns out he
was discharged

from the Gulf War.

Anyone want
to guess why?

I'll take PTSD
for five hundred.

Jesse: Bingo.

Yeah, he was traumatized

by a kill
shot he took

on January 21st, 1991.

Sarah: Let me guess.

It was during a
nerve gas attack?

Jesse: Two for two!

Yeah, how'd
you know that?

Discharge from nerve gas

mimics the smell
of rotten fruit.

So Jerry's been reliving his
most vivid and horrible day.

He's still military.

So?

So military is
trained for details.

He thinks the
coach stole his hat.

A lead is still
a lead, Charlie.

So there was no
hat-stealing incident.

No, there was.

Ten years ago.

I was a rower
then myself.

It was part of
our hazing ritual.

They made me
steal his hat-

because Jerry drove
us nuts back then.

He was always
threatening to sue us

for disrupting
his fishing traps.

To think he held that
grudge all these years.

Well.

Assuming he
pulled the trigger.

You don't think
it was him?

Was there any
friction between Niko

and any of the
other rowers?

If there was they
wouldn't tell me.

You are the coach.

-Who was also
once a rower.

What happens
in the boat-

stays in the boat.

Why was Niko
in the cox?

Like I told you,
for the weight.

You have to understand.

My boys are athletes.

All they care about
is being their best.

Niko was an
outstanding rower.

Why else would he have
scored that scholarship?

What scholarship?

You know, I don't have
all of those details.

But if I
were you-

I'd talk to Heather
Whitlock, the Dean.

It's called the
Ned Hanlon AFA.

Or Athletic Financial Award.

People like Niko wouldn't
be here otherwise.

What do you mean
people like Niko?

Rowing is a
rich kid's sport.

Niko grew up
in poverty.

Scholarships help
level the playing field.

Did that ever
cause any friction?

No.

Students at Heritage care
only about excellence.

Niko was an
exceptional rower.

Some groups like to cut
down their tall poppies.

-Not at Heritage.

But what if I told
you the war vet

might not be
behind his murder?

What is it?

It's probably crazy.

Try me.

Niko had a difficult
upbringing.

You should speak with
his mother, Greta Fermi.

He was only a boy
when it happened.

We were still
living in Toronto.

I was working
as a hairdresser.

Lorenzo was unemployed.

Your husband?

Niko's father.

He said he was taking
shifts as a labourer.

At night, he
was gambling.

He put up all of our
money and lost.

Found himself on the
run from the mafia.

One day-

Niko comes
home from school

and finds his father in the
shed, shot in the head.

Both of them.

The same way.

This can't be a
coincidence.

Mrs. Fermi, I'm sorry that
I have to keep pressing.

But did your son-

ever have an issue
with gambling?

Yes.

The apple doesn't
fall far from the tree.

But the minute he
picked up that oar-

everything changed.

Everything changed.

He swore he was done
with the gambling.

To think I
believed him.

Do you think
that any of this

has to do with why
your son got shot?

He said-

he had a line
on some money.

What else could it have
been than gambling?

No mother should
have to bury her son.

♪♪
[sad music]

Training already?

I needed the distraction.

[Rex sniffing]

So this is the space where
you guys once engaged in-

uh- initiation rituals.

Yeah.

That was
before my time.

Huh.

How can I help
you, Detective?

Did Niko ever
mention gambling?

No.

Why do you ask?

-Well, his father was
killed over gambling debt.

It's odd he'd
never mention that.

[Rex sniffing]

No, I mean Niko only
ever cared about rowing.

[Rex sniffing]

[Rex barks]

What have you
got, buddy?

Is that blood?

It's rower hands.

The calluses
can get ugly.

Huh.

You're sure you never
played cards here?

I mean, this would make
a great gambling den.

I mean-

Boathouse closes at nine.

Only Coach Reid
has the keys.

Huh.

Any friction between Niko
and the other rowers?

No, why
would there be?

-Well, you're upper class.

He wasn't.

A rower
is a rower.

And Niko was
the best of us.

Then how did he
end up cockswain?

-That was a last
minute decision.

Who made the decision?

We flipped.

Niko and Damon's
times were similar.

-That's interesting.

Because I'm looking here.

And it says-

that Niko was
consistently the fastest.

While Damon
was the slowest.

[Rex barks]

Charlie: Hey Damon?

Want to wait up?

Rex, go!

♪♪
[dramatic music]

[Rex barking]

[Rex barking]

[Rex barking]

Charlie: He's
not a big fan

of impromptu jogs.

And neither am I.

[Rex barking]

Yeah, I'm going to need
to see your fanny pack.

[Rex barking]

[click]

[zip]

Yeah, you and I are going
to need to have a little talk.

We matched the
blood to Niko Fermi.

But then I suppose-

you already knew
that, huh?

It's not what
it looks like.

-So you weren't planning

to row out into the
middle of the lake

so you could sink
the evidence?

Okay.

It is what it
looks like.

But it's not
what you think.

-Then help me
to understand

how your best rower
ended up in the cox

and you ended up with a
shirt covered in blood.

There's five of us fighting
for four spots on that boat.

It was between Niko and I
to take our turn as weight.

And neither of us
wanted to do it.

Why not?

-Acting as
cockswain means

we don't get as
much training time.

We need every edge we can get
with speed trials coming up.

So to decide it-

we played Put Up
or Throw Up.

Uhh-

First guy to 500 metres
on the rowing machine

makes the other
guy do a shot.

You keep going until-

I got the rest.

I regret the
entire experience.

Niko was so drunk.

He couldn't even stand.

He face-planted.

And then-

he busted his nose.

It was gushing everywhere.

He was laughing
the entire time.

And that's how the
blood got on his shirt.

Yeah.

And all made it for
your morning row.

Yeah.

With Niko as cox.

That was the deal.

One thing I don't
understand-

is why hide
the evidence?

Well, we didn't.

But then Niko
got shot.

I thought it would look
bad with the bloody shirt.

So I took it and I
hid it in my dorm.

But Niko was
killed on the boat.

There's no need
to hide anything.

Why bother?

It just felt like
a bad omen.

Charlie: Something
doesn't feel right.

Niko and his mates
partake in a hazing ritual.

And a few
hours later-

a sniper takes
him out?

-Yeah.

It's hard not to
think it's connected.

I'll tell you
what I see.

A group of
privileged kids

taking out the
runt of the litter.

The one who
doesn't belong.

Stay with me
for a second.

Everyone on that boat
comes from old money-

except for Niko.

For example-

I looked into
Damon's family.

Turns out,
he's a Fairchild.

They've given over two
million dollars to Heritage U.

You don't think
it's mob-related?

No, I doubt the mob
would follow Niko

all the way
to St. John's.

What's more likely

is they did
it themselves.

That's why they put
him in cockswain.

It's the spot furthest
away from everyone else.

So they hired a sniper
to take him out?

Feels reckless.

Sarah: And we
have no evidence.

Jesse: Oh,
maybe we do.

Check it out.

I got into the university's
athletics data site

so I could access the
rowers' training logs.

Turns out they
altered the route-

that morning only.

Their consistent routine

is to train on the
western route.

But that was changed on
the day of the shooting.

So they could row past
Jerry Auchincloss's house.

Donovan: Take
out the poor kid.

And frame a guy who has been a
thorn in their side for years?

Two birds, one stone?

Whose call was it to
change the route?

Probably the coach.

Well I think it's time
we rattle his cage.

Mmm.

There was a headwind.

That's funny.

Because we checked
your training logs.

And you've never
changed routes-

when there'd been
headwinds before.

Okay.

I'm not sure what
you're implying.

Besides, that was
the cockswain's call.

-Yeah, you're
the only one

who knew about the history
with Jerry Auchincloss.

So?

-So, you knew-

that the authorities
would assume

that he was behind
the sniper hit.

Okay.

Are you suggesting that
we staged Niko's hit

and framed Mr. Auchincloss?

Yeah, Jerry still thinks
he's in the military.

He claims that you
were there at 5:45.

Maybe it wasn't
to steal a hat.

But maybe it was
to plant a gun

that killed Niko
at his house.

Okay, well, this
is a university.

And not a
gangster movie.

-It is an understandable
pressure.

A lot of money came
from Damon's family.

-Oh, this is about
money now?

-Well, Niko was
the better rower.

How else do you explain
how Damon took his spot?

I told you.

The boat decides that.

While I wouldn't
even know

how to
handle a gun-

let alone make
that kind of shot.

And I was
at the docks.

And there are witnesses.

And you know that.

Then help me
to understand.

No, I'm done helping.

Any further
communication with me

will be done
through my lawyer.

Jesse: Alright.

38 minutes.

You beat me.

You made the
entire trek?

Yeah, all the way

from the sniper position
to the boathouse.

What do we know about

the coach's whereabouts
this morning?

Jesse: Well-

Adler's sister Sabrina placed
him at the boat house

exactly 15 minutes
before the shooting.

Which is too
short a window.

So it couldn't have
been the coach.

Yeah.

Nor anybody
in the boat.

If we're right
about a conspiracy

between coach and rowers-

There needs to
be another player.

Okay, we're missing something.

Okay, well let's
try this again.

So it's 5:15.

The rowers are
on the water.

Jesse: And they head east.

Due east.

Now, passing-

a groundskeeper.

-Mm-hmm.

Woman with stroller-

Well, she doesn't
really have a stroller-

and a male jogger.

Okay.

-And Adler's sister-

Sabrina-

who says that she was

just starting the steep
part of the path.

Sabrina: By the big stump-

where it starts
to get steep.

Where did you get
these figurines?

Well, I mean-

And now-

as the boat approaches
Jerry Auchincloss's house.

[Rex whines]

They hear-

[gunshot]
Whoah!

the gunshot-

from the sniper position.

Right here.

Now, due to the
echo chamber

all four witnesses
mis-identify the origin

of the sniper hit.

Three.

-Three?

The sister-

Sabrina-

Sabrina says that it
came from the south.

And swears-

she heard a
single shot.

Which is odd, because-

I mean, it looked like she
was inside the echo chamber.

Mmm.

[Rex whines]

Can you read me
her statement again?

Yeah.

Okay.

You ask
where she ran.

And she responded
by saying-

Same place I run
every morning.

Along the water.

Up the trail
heading east.

Niko waved to me as
they passed like usual.

I heard the gunshot.

But didn't look back.

Niko waved as they
passed like usual.

Yet they only altered
the route that morning.

-Which makes
the sister a liar.

I didn't kill him.

Why am I here?

I don't understand.

-Why did you lie-

about where you were
when the rowers passed?

Look, if I got a detail
or two wrong, I'm sorry.

I was worried
for my brother.

You're an Olympic hopeful.

Yeah, many
of us are.

-You specialize in biathlon.

That's the one
that combines

skiing with sharp-shooting.

Is that correct?

Yeah, well it was
enough for a warrant.

They're searching
your room now.

Did you know that
gunpowder signatures

can be traced back to the
residue in a gun's barrel?

And you're probably
aware from your training

with high-accuracy rifles

that gunpowder doesn't
come out when it's laundered.

So Rex will still
be able to smell it.

I didn't kill him.

So you've said.

I didn't kill him.

I didn't kill him!

I didn't kill him!

I-

Yeah, I think you need
some new material.

Like- I want to
talk to my lawyer.

Looks like we
have our shooter.

Rex was right about the
gunpowder he sniffed out.

Yeah, it was on
Sabrina's shirt.

And it's definitive.

She hadn't even
bothered to launder it.

-So Sabrina was
the sixth member

of the conspiracy.

The boys corroborated
Sabrina's alibi.

And Sabrina
corroborated the coach's.

I guess
this is over.

[Rex moans]

I know that look.

What's going on?

-I hate to be

the bearer of
bad news.

But this isn't
the slam dunk

you're looking for.

Here, I got the
autopsy results.

Sabrina wasn't lying when
she said she didn't kill Niko.

Because Niko-

was already dead.

♪♪
[dramatic music]

Jesse: So Niko
was already dead.

Freaks me out to
think about it.

They took their morning
row with a dead man.

And all of
them knew it.

Donovan: Well, at
least we know why

he was put
in the cox.

So they went past all those
witnesses on purpose.

All so they would verify
that Niko was alive.

It explains the singing.

To draw attention
to themselves.

And no one noticed that the
fifth man didn't have a voice.

The whole capsizing of
the boat was just a trick.

An act.

A cover-up.

Which means there's a
whole other crime scene.

And I think I have
an idea where it is.

Heather: I just can't believe
Niko was already dead.

That's a gruesome revelation.

I'm going to need
a list of all people

who have keys to
the boathouse.

-It's a short list.

Just Coach Reid
and myself.

When is it shut?

Nine o'clock sharp.

-Well, guards
are easily bribed.

[Rex growls]

And as we've established-

rowing is a
rich man's sport.

I can't see Reid allowing
boys in here to do a hazing.

He's as much
against it as I am.

Does this look like it's
been moved to you?

I don't know.

[scrape]

[clang]

-Look at that.

[Rex sniffing]

A bullet hole.

They didn't haze Niko.

They shot him.

It wasn't a
hazing ritual

that you were
covering up.

The blood didn't come
from Niko's nose.

It came from a bullet
wound in his head.

And we have proof.

Damon, right now-

at the very best,
you're guilty of

Obstruction of a
Police Investigation-

Obstruction of Justice-

and Indignity to
a Human Body.

And judging
by your silence-

I'm guessing that you're the
one that pulled the trigger.

No!

-He was
better than you.

And you wanted
him out.

No!

Then tell me who
pulled the trigger!

He pulled the
trigger himself!

Everything I told you-

was true.

We did play Put Up
or Throw Up.

Just neither of us
wanted to give up.

When did the
gun come in?

-Somewhere around midnight.

We were both
pretty drunk.

Who brought it?

Niko.

He had an idea
for a new game.

Something to settle
the draw quicker.

Russian Roulette?

I thought everyone
was joking.

Everyone seemed
so calm about it.

I just assumed
it was a fake.

And then everybody started
talking about the rules

like it was actually
going to happen.

And what were
the rules?

Spin the chamber once.

Point the gun
at your head.

And pull the trigger.

Once and only once.

To show your
ultimate loyalty.

And you didn't
think of quitting?

I beat out thousands
of applicants

for twenty spots
in this school-

all for a shot at
the Olympics.

It's all I've
ever wanted.

Enough to let
a friend die?

I thought he would
have given up.

And then he took
the gun, and he-

pointed it to
his temple.

And I tried
to stop him.

I tried to pull the gun
away from his head, but

Everything I touch-
I make it worse.

Listen Damon.

What you're talking about
right now is an accident.

Your charges would
be relatively minor.

But here's the thing.

You would need
to tell me exactly

how all your
teammates fit into this.

They're my brothers.

And brothers don't
turn on one another.

♪♪
[soft music]

Charlie: I know about
the Russian Roulette.

Damon told me everything.

You'd be smart
to do the same.

Yeah, I don't
think so.

You know, they say
silence is akin to guilt.

You want that to
go in my report?

You do what
you've got to do.

I'll take my chances
in the court.

It's better to come from
you than from Damon.

Damon isn't
ratting out anybody.

You really want
this to go to trial?

No matter how
this thing rolls-

I'm going to
turn up just fine.

Well, your sister is
a different story.

We have her on
multiple charges.

Her Olympic
dream is over.

And that's on you.

I mean, talk and
we can help her.

You wanted Niko
out of that boat.

Didn't you?

Hmm?

We did conspire to get
somebody off the boat.

But it wasn't Niko.

It was Damon.

One tenth of a second.

That's enough to
make a difference

between being nobody
or Olympic glory.

So we had to put our
best foot forward.

And Damon wasn't
your best foot.

He's good.

But the rest of
us are great.

Especially Niko.

So when Coach Reid told
us that Damon was a lock-

it meant that one of was going
to be pushed out of the boat.

Right?

Right before speed trials.

We needed to
do something.

So you thought that you'd
scare him into stepping down.

It had to be
Damon's idea.

So Niko came
up with a plan.

Niko?

Wait.

This was Niko's idea?

He had the trick gun.

When you spun
the cylinder

it always skipped
the fourth chamber

which was slightly
discoloured.

Plus-

supposedly the bullet
was fake anyway.

Then why
did it fire?

I don't know.

It doesn't make
any sense.

Well, maybe you can
help me make sense of it.

Where did you
put that gun?

None of this
was my idea.

When my
boss tell me

Damon is a lock on
the rowing team-

I have to listen.

Well, that lock could have cost
them their Olympic dreams.

You think I don't
know that?

I have been
with those boys

every single
step of the way.

I watched them row
until their hands bled

and their bodies collapsed.

I wanted them to
hit the Olympics

even more
than they did.

So you came up
with a plan.

No.

No, I closed an eye.

And gave them the
keys to the boathouse?

They told me that
they were going

to scare Damon
into stepping down.

I thought this was just
some dumb hazing thing.

But then I get this
panicked phone call.

And I show up
at the scene.

I love those boys.

I loved Niko.

What happened then?

-I couldn't let
this accident

destroy the rest
of their lives.

So I kicked into
protection mode.

I knew a troubled
war vet who would

make a perfect
fall guy.

But you needed
one more.

No, I never would
have involved Sabrina.

But Adler had
already called her.

She'd do anything
for her brother.

So she came.

She helped us
clean up-

the mess.

And we came up
with a plan.

♪Way hay and
up she rises♪

The boys would make their
turn at exactly 5:30 AM-

at which point Sabrina

would pull the trigger-

missing wildly.

[gunshot]

The theatrics on the
water would be enough

to distract while I ran back
to Jerry's to return the rifle.

By planting the bullet with
Niko's DNA on the other side

we assumed our story
would be airtight.

Yeah.

-Last question.

Who made the call to
put Damon on the boat?

Heather: You have
to understand.

Rowing is not like
hockey or basketball.

It doesn't generate
a lot of income.

It's one of our
biggest sports.

In the Olympics.

That's every four years.

And brilliant rowers
don't grow on trees.

It costs hundreds of
thousands of dollars-

which is where families
like Damon's come in.

To help fund
the sport.

Which pays for
people like Niko.

It's awful to think

I may have indirectly set
this tragedy in motion.

Speaking of Niko-

One thing I
can't figure out.

Modifying a revolver

so that it would only stop
on the fourth chamber-

That's an expensive undertaking.

How would someone like Niko get
his hands on a gun like that?

Maybe through his
mob connections.

No, he didn't have
any mob connections.

Then I have
no idea.

I think you do.

See, I did a little
bit of digging.

And it turns out-

that Damon's family

didn't just donate two million
dollars to the university.

They also paid
for his spot

in the program.

An extra half-
million dollars.

But it's not
just him.

There's dozens of
people at this school

who've been given spots
that they don't deserve.

That's a heck of a cash
cow you've got there.

You have no idea
what it costs

to fund a place
like Heritage.

-Yeah, but Heritage

never sees any
of the money.

How do you
explain that?

I don't have
time for this.

I think you'll
make time.

Because we traced the serial
numbers of that rigged gun

back to a Montreal
gun specialist.

And the payment came
from a numbered account

that belongs to you.

Even more interesting
is Niko was told that

when he spun
the cylinder

it would never stop on
that fourth chamber-

and that the
bullet was fake.

But the bullet
was real.

And the gun was rigged to always
stop on the fourth chamber.

Niko told his mom he had
a line on some money.

I think that
was you.

Because he found out
you were taking bribes.

He was squeezing
you for money.

That's why
he had to die.

-Are you through, Detective?

Because I think
we're done here.

Not quite.

Just one last
thing to say.

[Rex barking]

You're under arrest.

[Rex barking]

Thank you.

Hell of a week.

Sarah: It's
hard to think

such a promising
rower like Niko

is gone because
of greed.

Donovan: Well-
the world does tilt

to the rich and
privileged like Damon.

Well, Damon's as much a
victim as everyone else.

He was devastated when he
found out that his parents

had bought his
spot on the team

when more deserving
kids were denied.

Sounds like a
bunch of talk to me.

It's more than talk.

He's putting up
his own money

to help fund the next
generation of rowers

in honour of Niko.

He invited us to the
unveiling, actually-

and Niko's mom.

I think he even
reached out to Jerry.

Jesse: It's hard to make
a regatta from jail.

Donovan: Actually-

Jerry's in a rehab
centre for veterans.

He's back
on his meds.

He's doing quite well.

Sarah: It's nice to hear

a happy ending
for once.

We're so lucky no
one else got hurt.

Yeah, my bullet wound
is healing nicely.

Thanks for asking.

Okay.

Charlie: I got shot.

It was a graze.

What?

A small graze.

Donovan: Okay okay.

So-

This unveiling.

When is it?

[soft music]

I know it's of little
consolation, Mrs. Fermi.

But at least you know your
son never lied to you.

He never did fall
back on gambling.

Actually, it
means a lot.

Damon: Welcome, everyone.

Thank you all for
coming to the kickoff

and the unveiling
of a new skull

for a very
special program

in honour of a very,
very special rower.
