- Previously on wild cards.
- I need to get off that boat

And back to being
a full-time detective.

And you need to stay out of
prison. Best way we do that

Is to keep our heads down
and do as we're told,
think you can handle that?

- Absolutely. This is our first
official shift together.

You think hall and oates
walk on stage separately?

- Nice work, both of you.
- You hear that?
He said, "both."

If you couldn't be a cop,
what would you be?

- Nothing. My dad raised me to
be a cop. It's who I am.

(rhythmic music)

- There you go!
- Team-building day.

I didn't get the memo,
did you get the memo?

- Me neither.
You don't even work here,
why would you get the memo?

- Oh, and the crowd goes wild!
- Lucky catch.

- So do I get a shirt?
- No.

You see, ellis here
isn't exactly a team player.

- Oh, really?
- Well, he would be
if he had a shirt.

- We have any more shirts?
- We don't have any more shirts.

No. I still don't get
how you're here.

- Don't think about it too much,
okay? You'll strain yourself.

- Simmons, yates,
stop messing around.

Go split the squad up
into teams.

And you two...
- Trust fall? Escape room?

You know we could
really use shirts.

- Not for where you're going.
You know stanford township?

- That little town out in wine
country outside the city?

- That's it. Their local
butcher's gone missing.

- I'm sure they have their
own force, right?

- An entire force of two,
and they both just went
on their honeymoon.

- Together? That's so sweet.

- I assured
the commissioner we'd be
happy to step in and help.

So go help.

- If we find the butcher,
do we get shirts?
- No.

- Don't make this any worse
than it already is, okay?

What are you doing?

- What? We're a team,
we need building.

(rhythmic music)

Okay, what is your earliest
childhood memory?

- I'm not playing this game.

- Do you consider
yourself a masterpiece

Or a work in progress?

- Anybody who considers
themselves a masterpiece

Is not somebody
you want on your team.

- Fair enough. Okay, if you
could have any superpower,

What would it be?

- That's easy. The power to get
out of this conversation.

- Captain avoidance,
superpower: Deflection.

- We need to focus on him, okay?

- Okay.

Lucas mays.
34, no priors.

Volunteers for the elderly,
coaches little league,

And he looks like a hemsworth.

Ellis, we have got
to find this man.
- Oh, now you're focused.

- Well, what if he's
wandering the woods?

Lost with sunlight
glistening off his--

- Okay. We're here.

(gentle music)

Something about these small
towns, you know?

It's like a norman
rockwell painting.

- Have you ever looked at those
paintings? Decidedly creepy.

Thor lives in that trailer?

- Kidding me?
It's not just a trailer,

It's a classic
silver bullet.

- First class in
lack of commitment,

Any guy who lives in
a house on wheels

Is usually looking for
a quick exit.

- Lucas mays?

(birds chirping)

(knocking)

Police. Anybody home?

(tense music)

- Looks like things just
went from norman rockwell

To norman bates.

(mysterious music)

- Everything else looks pretty
untouched. No signs of struggle.

- Tell that to the previous
owners of those.

- They're not human. Cow or deer
would be my guess.

Anything some butcher or
hunter would have access to.

- All those abs, and he dusts...

Too bad he's a psychopath.

- I don't think he did this.

I'm gonna get forensics
to get some blood samples.

And then, I need to track down
whoever saw lucas last.

- Uh, uh, uh, "we" need to track
down. There's no "I" in team.

- Yeah, but there is
in infuriating.

- Actually, there's three...
I's.

But who's counting?

- One of lucas's employees
called in a missing person's
report.

Hoping we can shed
some light on--

- Look. The welcome center.

You know who works
at welcome centers?

People who like
talking to people.

And people who like talking to
people know all the hot goss.

- So much for teamwork.

(patrons): What is happening?
- Hurry up, where's my food?

- I've been here for 20 minutes.

- A wrong order!

- Honestly, daryl,
this bacon is all fat.

- I'm sorry, but like--
- this is mutton. Not lamb.

Where's lucas?
- Hi. I'm gonna need to speak
with you privately.

Everybody, this is now
a police investigation.

I'm gonna need you to clear
out, okay? Everybody, move.

Let's go. Thank you.

Alright. You filed the missing
person's report?

- Lucas didn't show up
for work yesterday.

And, like, he didn't open
the shop this morning either.

- You didn't think to
check his place.

- Dude's not
answering his phone,
he's not gonna answer his door.

I've been looking for his
special dry rub recipe
all night.

Mrs. Gaskill out there
ordered ribs for her
daughter's birthday.

What the heck am I gonna rub
her ribs with now?

- Okay, take a deep breath.
Did lucas ever bail on you
like this before?

- No way. That's why
I got freaked, man.

He's never even missed a day.

- Was lucas into anything
weird or strange?

- He's into farm to table, and
nose to tail,

And beer, he likes beer.

- Did he have any enemies?
- No way. He grew up here.

Took over the shop from his dad.

He even gave me a job when I got
fired from the fudge shop.

The guy even makes
his own deliveries.

Like, in person.

Oh, yeah, our
van's missing, too.

- Okay, well, I'm gonna need
the licence plate to that van

And a list of all the deliveries

That lucas made on his
last day, alright?

- You got it, officer.

- Can I be honest?
- Mmm?

Purple is def you.

- You're too sweet. Are you in
town for our wine fest?

- That's one of the reasons.

Hey, I don't mean to snoop,
but that book,

It saved my life when
my ex ran out on me.

- Yeah, um, the heart chakra
affirmations are helping,

But if I'm honest,
it's my fault.

I never learn.

- Listen, I don't usually tell
people this, but...

I can read auras.

And yours is like
this brilliant pink.

I don't know,
is it like an indigo?

- Really?
- Yes!

You're loving,
caring, empathetic,

You're the total package.

You're not the problem.
It's them.

- Oh, uh... Thank you.

- Can I ask you a question?

Your hunky butcher is
burning up the socials.

And I hear he's gone awol.
- What? I had no idea.

- Weird, right?
Do you know him?

- Yeah, everybody knows
everybody around here.

But are you sure he's missing?

- I made a special trip for his
insta-famous sausage rolls.

- They are delicious.

But if you will excuse me,
I have a ton of work to do.

Feel free to help yourself
to a brochure.

(mysterious music)

- Hey.
- Grape lady was definitely
sleeping with lucas,

But I don't think it ended well.

- She told you that?
- She didn't have to.

She's realigning
her heart chakras.

And every time she talked about
him, she played with her hair.

Textbook tell.
- Lucas's van is missing, too.

I just put out a bolo.

And I got a list of
all lucas's deliveries
the day he disappeared.

His last stop was at a
restaurant named "tralicci"
at the local winery.

- Shut up.
Check out this graphic.

Has the same stick figures
in the background.

- Just like the ones we
found in lucas's trailer.

- Look at us, two investigators
coming to the same conclusion.

Two minds thinking as one.
Otherwise known as...

- Coincidence.
- Teamwork.

Synchronicity. Kismet?

(classical music)

- You're here about lucas?
- What makes you say that?

- It's a small town.
News travel fast.

No, I said julienne.

A baby with a chainsaw could
have done better than this.

Start over, now!

- The day lucas disappeared,

Your restaurant
was his last stop.

- Well, you're more than
welcome to look around,

But unless he's in
the walk-in fridge...

- You're not concerned
he's missing?

- He's a grown man.
I'm not his keeper.

- Anybody who might have had it
in for lucas?

- Everyone loves lucas.
Everyone.

- We saw some stick figures

That were very similar
to these in lucas's trailer.

- Oh, it's just
local superstition.

The totems represent
the harvest blessing.

It's total nonsense, but you
know the tourists eat it up.

- Siobhan, siobhan! What in
the world are you thinking?

- We will talk about this later.
I am prepping the lunch rush.

- No, we'll talk now. You turned
the restaurant vegetarian

Without consulting me?
- I've gone off meat.

- But what even
is celiac carpaccio

And cool robbie sorbet?

- It's celeriac and kohlrabi.
They're vegetables. Keep up.

- What kind of wine am I
supposed to pair with that?

- I don't know, harlan. Okay?

- Put the regular menu back
or you no longer have a job.

Carpaccio?

- You are?
- Harlan stanford.

- Like the town?
- Yes.

My grandfather founded the town,

And my father
founded the winery.

- We're investigating
the disappearance of lucas mays.

When was the last time
you saw him?

- Uh, a week or so ago.

But the chef deals with
all the food deliveries

So you should ask her,
while she still has a job.

- You don't really think
he'd fire you, do you?

- You know, in high school,
harlan was a rich, entitled
little prick.

And that hasn't changed.

- So when did you switch
to vegetarian?

- Couple days ago.
- So right after lucas'
last delivery?

- Yeah. I told him that I was
cancelling our account.

- How did he react to that?
- Well, he wasn't thrilled.

We are all eating too much meat.

Meat, meat, meat!

It couldn't go on forever.
I mean, it had to stop.

(plate shattering)

Idiot!

- Thanks for your time.

- Go lucas. First mona,
then the hot chef in town.

- Yeah, there's
differently a history there.

- I mean, you saw the way

She was punching that dough
every time she talked about him.

I think that lucas was playing
hide the kielbasa with siobhan.

- Not anymore.

- Hey, look.

This bottle from 1922 sold
to a collector for 50 grand.

- Don't get any ideas.

- When my father first started
this winery, it was a humble,

Three acres, small store.

But thanks to the support of
this incredible community,

And maybe a little business
brilliance on my behalf.

(applauding)
oh, it's alright.

The stanford winery
can proudly say

We have over 100 acres of vines,

An award-winning restaurant,

And are currently being sold
across north america.

What's more, today,

I'm excited to announce our own

Recently discovered
vintage wine.

Unseen by human eyes
for almost a hundred years.

And now, you'll
please excuse me. Enjoy.

I would like you to remember
we sell by the case

And drink up.

Pam, pam!

Do not put these up here.

- Wow. Small town, big drama.

- Have you seen my wolf?
Her name's tala.

She's a grey timber wolf.

Um, somehow she got loose.
- Pam? Pam!

- You see her--
- pam! Hi, how you doing?

You're scaring the clientele.
You can't tape these up.

It's private property.

- Hey, is there a problem here?

- Yes, this woman is
trespassing. Please arrest her.

- Shut it, harlan.

I run the wolf rescue next door.

- And one of your wolves is
missing?

- She's not just missing,
she vanished.

I can't understand how.

- Look, just because you can't
control your animals

Is no reason
to scare my clientele.

You know how important wine fest
is to this town.

So if I do see your damn--
(gunshot)

- What the heck was that?
- Bird cannon.

They're shooting birds
out of a cannon?

Is that like a small town thing?

- No, it's a noise maker to keep
the birds away from the grapes.

- Usually, it goes off
a couple times a day.

- Well, how come it isn't
scaring off those birds?

- Red-tailed hawks? They're
probably circling prey.

- Tala...

- Excuse us.
- By all means.

- Anyone else getting creepy
red riding hood vibes?

- Wolves don't usually
attack unless provoked.

And carrion birds, they wouldn't
fly that close to the wolves.

They must have found
something big.

- Wow. Your discovery
channel subscription's
really paying off.

- I like to leave the tv
on for the cat, you know?

He likes those
animal documentaries.

- I'm sure marc really
appreciates it.

- Stay back.
- Why? What is it?

No!

(mysterious music)

(indistinct radio chatter)

- There's no way
my wolves did this.

They know lucas.
He was a kind, wonderful...

I can't believe.

- We'll find whoever did this.

You go back to the house.
We'll join you in a minute.

- Hey, you can't say that.
- Say what?

- "I promise we're gonna
catch the bad guys."
you can't say that.

- Someone she knows
was gruesomely mauled.
What was I supposed to say?

- Cops can't make guarantees
like that, max.

Plus, pam could be
the murderer for all we know.

- Pam? No. What you looking at?

- Not much.
Was hoping for some footprints
but not in this grass.

There's hardly any blood either.

- How does someone get ripped
to shreds and not bleed?

- When someone's killed, they
only keep bleeding so long
as their heart keeps pumping.

- So lucas was dead by
the time the wolves got to him?

- Which means this
missing person's case
just became a murder.

- And wine festers
are headed to a town

Where a killer
and a wolf is the loose.

- Exactly, so we
need to act fast.

I think he was killed somewhere
else and then dumped here.

- Ew, do you think the murderers
were hoping the wolves

Would finish off
their dirty work?

- Maybe but it doesn't make any
sense.

There's high fencing all around
the property,

So how did lucas's body appear
and a wolf disappear

All from within
a secure facility?

- Unless...
- What?

Lucas was the wolf.

- Okay. You're not helping.

- All my wolves are chipped
so I can track them.

- And they're all
accounted for except for--

- Tala. Her tracker's
disappearing
and reappearing constantly.

- How's that possible?
- I've walked the grounds.

There's no gap in the fencing.
The gates are secure.

One minute she was there,
the next, gone.

- Have you known lucas for long?

- We went to
high school together.

We didn't really travel
in the same circles.

He was handsome,

Star jock, prom king.

- Let me guess,
you were the shy, nerdy kid

Who would rather hang out
with animals over people.

- Does it still show?
- You wear it well.

- Talk to me about
after graduation.

- I left town for college.

Studied zoology and became
fascinated with wolves.

Last year,
I inherited this land,

And decided to move back,
and open the sanctuary.

- And you said your wolves were
familiar with lucas?

They knew him?

- He made deliveries
a couple times a week.

So they got to
know the sound of his van.

He'd always drop
the meat off here with me.

He never went out
into the property.

Certainly not by himself.
It's just not fair.

Lucas was one of the good guys.

And they are few
and far between.

- When was the last time
you saw him?

- The day he disappeared.

He swung by with my delivery,

But when he heard
that tala was missing,

He said that he would
help find her.

(electronic ping)
that's the wolf tracker.

- Let me guess, you think pam
was sleeping with lucas, too?

- There was definitely something
simmering there.

(mysterious music)

- She's back.
Tala's back.

- Where?
- Outside the sanctuary.

Tala!

- So we're wolf hunters now?

- We just need to
confirm her story.

- She disappeared again.
I don't understand.

- She was heading in this
direction, right?

- That's lucas's van.
Do you smell that?

- Yeah, it's hard not to.

- Tiny hearts?

- Chicken hearts.
- Catching on to a theme here.

But who would buy a box
of chicken hearts?

- Somebody named peter millford,
at 435 west valley lane.

- That guy's so into hearts,
maybe he's the one

That put them in lucas's
trailer.

- I use the hearts in
my dissection class.

- Makes me glad I was
homeschooled.

- How well did you
know lucas mays?

- We grew up here.
Went to this school together.

Class of 2009.

I couldn't believe it when I
heard about his murder.

- Who said it was a murder?

- Oh, well, everybody was
talking about the body, I--

- Right. Small town.
- I just assumed that it was...
You know?

- You want to open up a window?
You're just looking
a little hot.

- I'm fine, but I do have
a parent-teacher meeting
I should get to so...

- Right, well, we won't take too
much more of your time.

Can you think of anyone that
would want to harm lucas?

- No. I mean when I heard
the body was found on
pam's land, I...

You don't think she...

- Do you?
- What? No.

We were all kids together.

Pam was a bit of a loner
back in school.

We didn't really hang out much.

But I know she tutored
lucas in math.

Now if you'll excuse me,

I really should get
to that meeting.

You can see yourselves out.
- Sure. Thanks for your time.

- Call me crazy...

- You say that like it's
supposed to be a leap of logic.

- You saw the way he was
cleaning his glasses every time
we talked about lucas.

- Maybe he's just nervous
because he's the one
who killed him.

- Or maybe he was hiding another
secret.

- Such as?
- Mona from the welcome center,
siobhan, the winery chef,

And peter, hunky
science school teacher.

I think they were all getting
a piece of grade a lucas.

I mean, look at them all here
rocking those hot y2k looks.

All except for pam,

Who's clearly marching to
the beat of her own drum.

- I don't trust him.

C'mon, grab the book, let's go.

Parent-teacher meeting,
you really buy that?

- Nope. His hand
was shaking too much.

- What the...

Someone broke into my truck.

- My bag is missing.

And my shawl and my hat.
- So is my uniform.

(engine revving)

- Hey. That's peter.

(tense music)

- Well, unless his parent
teacher meeting is a mobile one,

I think we got ghosted.

You gonna pull him over?

- No. I wanna see
where he's going.

- I wonder what you were
like in high school.

Quarterback,
unexpected drama club star.

- You just keep on poking
the bear, don't ya?

- It's either that
or we play "I spy."

- I was a regular kid, max.
Average grades, nothing special.

- Boring.
- Yeah, boring. Exactly.

You?
- I didn't go to school.

- Never?
- We were always on the move.

Paris, lisbon, barcelona,
pine bluff, arkansas.

That was a tough year.

- So you grew up
on the run, huh?

- We weren't
running from anybody.

We moved because we wanted to.

New languages, cultures.

How many kids get that chance?

I learned more than I
ever would have in school.

- Like how to pick a lock
in seven languages?

- Mais oui.

(chuckles)

- Where's he going?

Looks like he ditched his car.

(door shuts)

- Are we really gonna be one
of those couples who get out

Of their car in a deserted
country road in the night

And chase a chicken heart
freak into the woods?

- Here, take this.
- "why yes, max! Yes, we are."

Okay, perfect. What's next?

Going down into a dark basement
to check on the fuse box?

- Quiet.

- Ignoring that creepy doll with
the eyes that follow you.

(shushing)
- listen.

(indistinct chanting)

- What's that?
- You hear that?

He's chanting.

- Yes, that's definitely
chanting.

And this is me,
definitely leaving.

- Wait. C'mon, look.
There's smoke up ahead.

- You know what they say,
"where there's smoke, there's...

Ritual sacrifice?"

- Wait a minute. Those...
Those are our clothes.

- It's us.
They're burning us.

(chanting continues)

- We, uh... We did it.

Oh, my god. I'm so sorry.

- Are you saying that the three
of you killed lucas mays

And then dragged his
body into the wolf rescue?

- What?
- We were all in love with him.

- So when you found out he was
sleeping with other people,

You all decided to kill him.
- No, no. We all knew.

You all knew that you were
all sleeping with him?

- Yeah. It's not the 90s.

Ethical non-monogamy
is the norm now.

- Maybe I do like this town.

- But then a few days ago,
things changed.

Out of the blue, he told us he
couldn't be with us anymore.

- He said he met someone.

Someone he loved.

- Someone he wanted
to be monogamous with.

He wouldn't tell us who.

Only that being with any of us

Would betray his
feelings for them.

- We never meant to hurt lucas.

We never, ever would.

I was happy that he found
that kind of love.

- But you wanted it
for yourself.

- Yes, but love is wanting
what's best for someone.

Still it hurt, and we needed
to find a way

To move on and so we...

So we turned to--
- witchcraft.

Mona, and peter, and I have
been in a coven for years.

- Maybe I love this town.

- But we would never
use it for evil.

We cast a spell to banish
him from our hearts.

Not to hurt him.

- So the three of you set up
that altar in lucas's trailer,
is that right?

- Three hearts for the ones
that he shattered.

- But then he went missing.

And when you found his
body, we knew--

- Our spell... It backfired.

We didn't banish lucas
from our hearts.

- We banished him from
the face of the earth.

- Alright, so this spell you
performed in the woods.

Why did you need to
steal our clothes?

- Oh, that was just
a protection spell

To stop you from
figuring out what we did.

- "let prying eyes pay
us no heed."

(knocking)
- excuse me.

- Hypothetically speaking.
How does one join a coven?

- Alright, what do you got?

- Pathology results.

Your victim died from a gunshot
wound through the heart

Approximately three days ago.

Bullet went right through him.
And that's not all.

- He had some black powder
on his clothes.

Modern bullets don't leave
that kind of residue.

Must have been an old gun.
- Very old. Probably an antique.

(phone ringing)

- Alright, well,
their alibis check out.

They work in a high school
carnival the entire day

And night of the murder.

- So golden boy lucas
starts a new relationship
and winds up dead...

Maybe there's another jealous
ex that we didn't notice?

Or maybe his new lover
turned out to be dangerous.

- And we still don't know
how lucas or the wolf got
in and out of the property.

- Hey, reception called.
They got a couple witnesses

Downstairs who want to
come forward on your case.

- Great, who?
- Oh, umm...

An old guy named dumbledore
and a small child

With a little wand named potter.

- Very funny.
- Chapter 8 of
the team building manual.

- Just drop it, max.

- "the struggle of one is the
struggle of the entire team."

- Yeah, we're not
the ones struggling.

Your best suspects
so far have been witches.

- You guys are making

This entire station
look like a circus.

- He is busy trying to solve a
murder. What are you two doing?

- Oh, he's got himself
a cheerleader.

- C'mon, let's get out of here.

- Go team!

- You have so much discipline.
I don't know how you do it.

It's not healthy to keep
all this anger in you.

And you should be angry.
Okay, let's do some roleplaying.

Not the sexy kind,
the therapy kind.

I'll be yates,
and you'll be you.

And go.
- And stop.

- C'mon. You can't take that.
It's us against them.

- There's no us, okay?

We're not partners,
we're not a team.

And right now, we're nowhere
on this case. Alright, nowhere.

- I guess you're right.

I'll see you in the morning.

(emotional music)

(sighs)

(rhythmic music)

- Hey.
- Hey.

Forensics sent us lucas'
belongings.

- Thanks.
Say hi to sam for me, okay?

(mysterious music)

- What's wrong, baby girl?
- Nothing. I'm fine.

- Oh, c'mon. Talk to me.
- It's okay, I'm...

I'm just tired. Don't worry.

- I always worry.
- You never worry.

You're worry free.

- Okay, I'm giving away
a father secret here.

You said you were fine.
That's your tell for "not okay."

Now dish.

Just pretend we're back
on the cote d'azur

And you're crying
about little françois

And how he broke your heart.
- He was so cute.

- I'm all ears.

(doorbell rings)

- There's someone at the door.
- I got 15 more minutes.

- I'll be fine.
I gotta go. I love you.

- I love you--

- New mansion, huh?

- Variety is the spice of life.

- Can I come in?

- Sure. Wait, wait, wait.

- I'm assuming this gesture
is your unspoken apology?

Or am I totally off base

And you just came here
to snap at me again?

- No.
- No, I'm not totally off base?

Or no, this isn't your
unspoken apology?

- Please, stop talking.
The first one.

I'm sorry I snapped at you.
Alright?

- Apology accepted.
You hungry?

- I could eat.

So I was looking through lucas'
belongings, and he...

My god, that's amazing.

- I came up with
the recipe a few years ago.

I snuck into the vip lounge
at a harry styles concert.

A few hours later, I was
on a long-haul flight

On his private jet
cooking for the whole crew.

You know his song "adore you"

Was written about this
very grilled cheese.

Look, I'm sorry. You were right.

I know you have a lot
of history with those guys

And a lot of stuff going on
inside that I don't know about.

And you don't have to
tell me about it.

I'll just be more mindful
the next time

She's such a colossal jerk.

- Look at this.

Found it in lucas's belongings.

He was carrying it
around in his wallet.

(mysterious music)

- Lucas kept one half
in his wallet.

- Why do you have the other
half of this wish bone?

- It's hard to grow up
in a small town.

You get labelled early on,

And that's who you are
and always will be.

I went to school with lucas
since the first grade,

And I don't think we ever spoke

Until I was assigned to
tutor him in senior year.

- I think I know
where this is going.

- Of course I fell for him.

He was kind, sweet,

And so much smarter than
he was ever given credit for.

The night before
I left for college,

I found a love letter
with one half of a wish bone

That he'd left for me.

It said that if I felt
the same way he did,

Then I should
meet him at midnight

In the middle of town square.

- This is like the best
john hughes movie ever.

- I went there,
and I waited for hours.

And he never showed up.

- Scratch that. It's like the
worst john hughes movie ever.

- When I moved back
over a decade later,

He showed up at my
door and apologized.

Said he got scared.

- Scared of what?

- He didn't think he was smart
enough or good enough for me.

I was leaving to do
all these things,

And he was going to work
in his dad's butcher shop.

We started talking
every time he came by.

It was just like old times.

We spent over a decade apart
because we were scared to talk.

If we'd just been
honest with each other.

(tracker dinging)

- Is that your wolf tracker?

- That's not possible.
- What?

- Tala's back in the sanctuary.

(tracker beeping)

She's here.

- What?
How did she get back inside?

(tense music)

- Hi, baby girl.

(light growl)

- There's a tunnel.

- I've never seen that before.

That's how tala got in
and out of the sanctuary.

- She must have chewed
her way through.

- That's how the murderer
dragged in lucas's body

Without getting caught.

- Please don't tell me
we're going inside.

- Oh, we're going in.

(mysterious music)

- Creepy, drippy cave.
Very apropos for murder, yes,

But for once, can a crime
take place in a bakery?

Where even are we?

- My guess? These are old
rum-running tunnels.

They used to smuggle
booze in prohibition.

- No signal.

- Hey, look at this.

- Animal prints.
- Wolf tracks.

- Tala.

Hey, do you remember when tala's
signal kept disappearing?

- She was probably running in
and out of these tunnels.

(glass clanking)

- Hello darkness,
so not my old friend.

Hey, look.

(buzzing)

- Huh.
- Wow.

We must be under harlan's
vineyard now.

- Bordeaux grand cru 1922.

This bottle's the real deal.
- Yeah? How can you be so sure?

- Paper is the hardest
thing to counterfeit.

- I don't think any of these
have ever been used.

Yeah, these are all clean.

- Oh, my merlot.

- What?

- I think harlan is filling
these with box wine.

A little "cardboardeaux"
if you will.

Corking it and selling
it for 50 grand.

- It's exactly what he's doing.
- Genius.

- Not it's fraud.
- Fine, fraudulent genius.

- Okay, so if pam's wolf tala
found this tunnel, I bet

Lucas did too and that's when
he caught harlan in the act.

- Why murder someone over
a $50,000 bottle of wine?

- You mean a $50,000 counterfeit
scheme? It's a federal crime.

That's just for one bottle.

He gets caught doing this,
it's an end to that money train.

Not to mention some
pretty serious jail time.

- Picture it. Harlan's a legacy
kid who runs this town.

Everything in it bears his name.

One wrong move and his name
would be forever tainted.

I mean, you get it.
You're a legacy kid.

- No, I'm not.
- Your dad's a cop,
you're a cop.

I mean, isn't part of the reason
you want your desk back

To restore your family name?

- Okay, look,
we have a theory, alright?

But not a bullet, a crime scene,
or anything that suggests

Harlan saw lucas
the night of the murder.

- Okay, here's a thought.
I get out of this creepy,
gross, bad tunnel.

- Really?
- Let me finish.

And then I'll go call for backup
and keep an eye on harlan.

- While I look for the bullet
and anything that can tie

Harlan to lucas's murder.

- See? The team is built.

We're like one machine.
Like rapinoe and morgan.

- Who?
- Do you not watch
women's soccer?

- Okay, look, just be careful.

Any backup is at
least an hour away.

- Got it, big cheese.

Yates, enough with the sabrina
jokes, the moment's passed.

We need backup so floor it.

- And when I added
the restaurant

And elongated the cellar,

I made a fascinating discovery.

A prohibition era
cache of vintage wine

Almost a hundred years old.

- You know what that
son of a bitch did?

- Harlan, what?
- He fired me.

- I'm so sorry.
- It was long overdue.

I'm actually kind of relieved.

When it comes down to it,

I have given this place
the best years of my life.

What did I get in return?

Besides callouses, back pain,
and mild drinking problem.

- I'm sure.

- And I've always wanted to
leave this small town

And open my own shop. I guess
now I don't have an excuse.

- Good for you.

- You know what I think I'm
gonna call it? "siobhan's."

- That has a nice ring to it.
- Thank you!

- Damn it! Look, okay,
I got to go.

Um, text me for the grand
opening, okay?

- Do you know where harlan is?
I need to talk to him.

- He had to get something
from the basement.

Everyone, the wine tour
will be starting

In just a "prosecco-nd."

Like just a second
but with prosecco?

(clears throat)

I'm gonna take a break.

(tense music)

(airy chuckle)

(gun clicking)

- What are you doing here?

(tense music)

Put your gun on the ground
and kick it over.

Slowly.

That's it.

(gravel rustling)

What you doing?

- Just admiring your counterfeit
operation you got.

Guess lucas did, too, and that's
when you killed him, right?

- I offered to cut him in,

But the idiot had morals
and wouldn't bite.

He left me no choice.

- There's always
a choice, harlan.

This isn't just about
the money, is it?

It's about what happens
if this winery goes down.

- We built an empire here.

- Well, your daddy
built an empire.

Now you're about to lose it.

A hit like that would be pretty
devastating to your reputation.

- I'm the king of this city.

People look up to me.

- For now. But your father
was a true wine maker.

He left you a legacy.

You just turned this place
into some tourist trap

That sells
cheap wine at a premium.

You get caught with this
counterfeit crap,

You're done.

- That's never gonna happen.

- Even your gun's
prohibition era.

You sure that dusty old
thing still shoots?

(gunshot) okay.
Yeah, that definitely shoots.

Look, if you shoot me
with that gun,

Powder residue will match
the wound on lucas's body.

Not to mention the bullet
in the barrel.

- Well, I'll just have to make
sure they never find you.

- Don't do anything
stupid, alright?

I got backup on the way.

- C'mon. We both know that
there's no backup.

(max):
Alright, right this way folks.

Watch your step,
mind your neighbour,

And check your attitudes
at the door.

What do we have here?

A recreation, no doubt,

Of a very special event that
happened at this very winery.

Okay, so hang back people.
And get your phones rolling.

Definitely not gonna
want to miss this.

This story of yore
begins as such.

Youngest member of the
most prominent family

Struggles to keep
the business afloat.

And spoiler alert, he sucks,

So he fakes a buried treasure.

Makes a barrel of money,

Until he's discovered
by the local butcher

Who's actually
the town's most beloved son.

Money usually gets him
out of everything,

But the butcher's a good,
decent, hot, incorruptible man.

Everything the loser son is not.

So the butcher has to die.
- Would you shut her up?

(gun clicking)

- Oh, believe me, I've tried.

Harlan stanford,
you're under arrest

For the murder of lucas mays.

Turn around, put your hands
behind your back. Now!

(applauding)

We went over harlan's
financials,

Turns out his vineyards
were growing mostly spoiled
crops over the years.

- Sounds like he was up
to his ears in debt.

- Exactly. Which is why he
started selling these so-called

"vintage bottles"
every few months.

Just to keep the place afloat.

- It turns out it was just bad
luck that lucas found him out.

The butcher was genuinely
a good, decent guy.

- Not many of those left.
- Nope, there aren't.

- I got a meeting.
Out of my office.

- So, what do you want
to do to celebrate?

Toilet paper yates's house?

- I'd save it for yourselves.

Both of your careers are getting
flushed down the drain.

- She helped me catch a
murderer today, what'd you do?

- She solved today's wordle.

- Oh.
- Oh.

You hungry? I'm buying.

- I got it in four tries.
The word was "foyer."

Probably couldn't
get that if you tried.

- Couldn't solve that.
You couldn't solve that!

- Why didn't you say it sooner?
They're not even here anymore.

- I don't know,
they turned the corner.

- If you're gonna have my back,
have my back right away.

- It's not your grilled cheese,
but it'll do.

- Nothing is like
my grilled cheese.

- So, you said you moved
around a lot growing up,

Must have been
hard to make friends.

- My parents are my friends.

- Okay, so...

If you didn't go to school and
you didn't have any friends,

What were you doing while your
parents were out, um...

- I was never alone.

I played with holly golightly,
john mcclane, sarah connor.

I sang with mick and keith,
salt and peppa.

I hung out with
dawson, pacey, joey.

Until things got weird. There
was always so much drama.

- Yeah, but those
aren't real people.

- They were to me.
- Sounds lonely.

Sorry to hear that.
- I had a wonderful childhood.

My folks were
really great people.

- Do you really not see it?
- See what?

- Max. Your parents
were criminals.

They put you in a position
where they could've been

Taken from you at any minute.

That wasn't a normal childhood.

- My parents loved me.

They gave me
everything I needed.

- Like what?

- They taught me
to never punch down,

Never work a mark that
wasn't deserved,

And to always lend out
my hand to anyone within reach.

So don't tell me that my
parents aren't good people.

They taught me to survive in a
world where no one has your back

Unless they want
something from you.

We looked out for each other.

We were a team.

- I'm glad you
were on mine today.

Thanks for having my back.

- Back at ya.

So...

Since we're
temporarily teammates.

- That's a hard no.
I'm not putting that on ever.

- They're not giving
us matching t-shirts,

We got to have our own swag.

Just put it on once,
I'll close my eyes.

- What? No, I'm
not gonna put that on.

- Please!
- When did you even have
time to do that?

- Partners in wine.
Partners in crime.

- You're kidding, right?
No, I don't do hats.
I don't like it.

- They're so cute.
It was expensive.

- Well, then,
you wasted your money.

- Okay, just keep it.
You know, it'll grow on you.
