Hey, Colter, you make it to Napa?

I did. So, tell me about the missing woman.

Quinn Ridgely, co-CEO of a new software company.

Her wife, Gray, is putting up the 50K reward.

They've gone for nine hours?

Actually, almost 10.

Reenie will fill you in when you get there.

She's how we got the job.

Almost at the property now.

Treat her nice.

Hey.

- Hey. You made good time. - Yeah.

- Thanks for doing this. - Of course, no problem.

Colter Shaw.

Elliot Rush. It's nice to meet you.

I'm Reenie's plus-one for the weekend.

Okay. Well, we should really, uh... We should get to work.

- Talk to the wife? - Yes, but before you do,

please know I had to vouch for you with the owner, okay.

He wasn't keen on bringing someone in.

- He wanted security to handle it. - Got it.

Great, okay, uh, I will catch up with you later?

- Sure. - Okay.

I'm here if you need me.

I did not want any surprises.

No, no, no, not at all.

I'm just surprised, actually, that Russell's not here.

- He told you about our dinner? - Told me.

Well, you know, he's not exactly a wine

and corporate retreat kinda guy.

No, not Russell.

It's not like that between us.

It's all good. It's... you know...

It is whatever it is.

But, uh, we should probably get to work.

We should.

- Okay. - Okay.

- What is this event anyway? - It's a corporate leadership summit.

Big wigs from various industries

to put their heads together.

Yacht measuring contest. Got it.

Actually, some real good has come out of things like this, okay?

They've stopped wars.

Brought the Internet to Third World countries.

They even workshopped the first smartphone from an event like this.

Hmm. Impressive. I didn't know your firm was on this level.

It isn't. Yet.

But I won a pretty big case at my last firm for the host of the event.

So, you know, scored myself an invite.

And Elliot? He seems nice.

You know, why don't we focus on the case?

Right. Quinn Ridgely, missing woman. What do ya got?

Well, her wife, Gray, thinks it was corporate kidnapping.

You're not so sure?

Corporate kidnapping? It's strictly a money play.

There's no ransom note, no call.

I don't know.

She could've wandered off or something.

- Yeah... Well, I don't want to mess with your process. - My process?

- That little thing you do. - I do a thing?

- Yeah, you do a thing. Uh-huh. - Okay, all right, well...

- Police? - No, a lot of high-profile people here

and the owner of the estate's afraid of bad press.

- Wants to keep the whole thing under wraps. - Understood.

- There's a lot of cameras. - Yeah.

What does security say? Looks like they're stacked up.

There was no sign of her near the bungalow nor on the grounds.

Reynolds'll give the download. He's head of security.

- So far, they have nothing? - Nope.

That's why Gray was able to convince him to let me bring you in.

- Where's Gray now? - In her villa.

Follow me.

This is the man I was telling you about. Colter Shaw.

- Thanks for coming. - Of course.

So, I need to know everything that happened around the time your wife disappeared.

Um...

I was on a sunset hike with some of the other CEOs.

Uh, Quinn didn't wanna come because she doesn't like that kind of networking thing.

Um, when I got back, uh, the shower in the bathroom was on

but when I called her name, but she didn't answer.

The door was locked, so I busted it open.

The room was trashed, there was blood on the floor, and she was just gone.

Reenie mentioned the idea of corporate kidnapping. Why would you think that?

Well, it's happened once before.

One of our top engineers from Lithuania got taken about six months ago.

And we ended up paying the ransom to get him back.

So, it's possible they were thinking,

"They paid once, they'll pay again."

We were advised against paying it, but, uh, Quinn didn't listen.

Any other indicators that you or your wife were being targeted?

Anything at all?

It hasn't been easy,

going from garage band to rock stars. I mean...

It happened so fast.

They developed some controversial applications

for identifying and killing deep fakes.

What started as a class project just blew up.

Quinn had a hard time dealing with all the attention,

let alone navigating the direction of the company.

- Any threats? - All kinds.

Quinn was really nervous about coming here in the first place.

But I convinced her that nothing bad could happen in a place like this.

I'm sorry, I have to ask.

Any domestic issues between the two of you? Anything at all?

No. Why?

Noticed the blankets.

Someone sleeping on the couch?

You two have a fight?

- It was a disagreement. - Hmm.

We have different opinions on the direction of the company.

I'm gonna do everything I can to bring your wife back to you.

I need to see where she disappeared from.

- Do you mind if we... - Over here.

This way.

After you.

Looks like there was a struggle.

Security thinks she fought back.

Yet no one heard anything.

Well, Gray was on the sunset hike.

They do a meditation at the top of the mountain.

- Meditation, huh? - Yes, meditation.

I was there, too. It's sort of a hike with some mindfulness sprinkled in.

You should try it sometime.

Don't you think it's strange that nothing else in this room is broken, just the mirror?

I don't think she was pushed into it.

I think she hit it with her fist.

Okay. Why?

The blood starts here, right?

And then...

And then...

All the way to the window handle.

Meaning the window was opened from the inside after she was injured.

She easily could've climbed down from this ledge here.

I don't think Quinn was taken.

I think she left on her own.

- It's a wine tasting. Don't judge. - I'm trying hard not to.

I think you might even like it.

The wine or tasting wine with millionaires?

Both. And then we can work in a little yoga...

I'm good. Thanks.

- Are you really? - Is that what you've been doing with Elliot?

In your free time, you do wine tastings, yoga classes?

Yes. He's actually open to new things.

I love new things. Can't get enough new things.

Just, you know, not any of those new things.

Okay, here we go. Your 12 o'clock, William Locke.

He owns this whole place and he's hosting the event.

He's got security with him.

- Yup. Play nice. - Mmm-hmm.

- William Locke. - Colter Shaw.

Colter, meet Peter Reynolds, my head of security.

You spoken with Quinn's wife, Gray?

- I did. - How's she doing?

She's scared and looking for answers.

- Understandable. - She just wants to know where her wife is.

I've assured her my team is out looking for Quinn.

We've reached out to a corporate kidnapping consultant.

I don't think Quinn was taken by corporate kidnappers.

- I think she could still be on the premises. - I doubt that.

You scanned the entire property?

Yeah, better than that.

I combed through the security footage.

My team did a full grid search.

- No trace of her since last night. - Hmm.

I'd love to look at that footage.

I wish I could do that.

Why can't you?

I've signed a mutual NDA with our guests to protect everyone's privacy.

All security footage is off-limits to anyone outside of my team.

I'm sure we can find an exception. It's just paperwork.

That's not what's going on here.

It's, uh, something different.

You don't want me here.

You have to understand where I'm coming from.

Any leak or tweet and I'd have a mess on my hands.

Something like this gets out, it could tank our stock prices.

How long do you think you could keep a lid on something like this?

One of your high-profile guests is missing.

Either Quinn's been kidnapped or she's on the property.

Now I'm guessing both of those possibilities would up the drama.

That is, if it got out.

Is that a threat, Ms. Greene?

Need I remind you that you and your plus-one are guests here?

Good to know where I stand.

I was assured that this process would be fast and discreet.

It's the only reason I allowed for you and Gray to bring Mr. Shaw here in.

In order to do my job,

I need full access.

And you have it.

Full access to every inch of my property.

I just ask you conduct any searches discreetly.

I am confident that with the help of my security, you'll find Quinn.

I hope you're right.

Well, if you don't mind, I need to get back to my guests.

Thank you.

What's wrong?

I know when I'm being lied to.

They're hiding something.

Ooh!

Yeah?

Bobby, we need your help.

Damn, C. You got the worst timing.

I was just unboxing.

Huh? Do you need more time or can we get to work?

No, you already ruined the moment.

Go on.

- You get that winery I sent you? - Yeah.

Mr. CEO.

Wine, yoga. Place looks posh as hell.

It is and Colter's loving every minute of it.

I bet. So, what's up?

Head of security says there's nothing on the cameras,

but he won't let us take a peek.

And you want me to facilitate that?

Exactly.

Whoa!

Okay. I can't even get into it.

It's airgapped, meaning it's not connected to outside networks.

There's no way in at all?

The only way to see the footage is to get directly into the mainframe.

Can you get a location?

Running a power draw map now.

Got it. Sending it to you now.

Not for nothing, but there's gonna be a lot of eyes.

Luckily for me... that is a "you" problem.

All right, thanks, Bobby.

Well, you heard him. It's a "you" problem. Let's go.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

- I got this. - Wait. You got it how?

You gonna knock him out?

I'm not gonna knock him out. I'm not an animal.

- Put him to sleep. - Okay, calm down.

Just... There's a much better way to do this.

Watch.

Hi! Excuse me. Um, I was wondering,

is this where the aura cleansing is supposed to be?

Ma'am, you can't be in this area.

Oh, really? I...

Uh... I'm sorry. I just... I have no idea where I'm supposed to be

and I thought the event was here.

Whatever it is, it's gotta be back in that direction.

Oh, well...

Look, I know this is a lot to ask,

but would you be willing to walk me there?

I just really don't want to get lost again.

Please?

Okay.

Oh, thank you so much.

You know, I can't tell you how much I appreciate you doing this for me.

I mean, you're just so helpful and going out of your way.

Such a...

Nice.

How'd you get rid of the guard?

You have your thing, I have mine.

- Ah. - I've got about five minutes.

Hmm.

So, Elliot. How'd you guys meet?

He is a lawyer at my old firm.

We used to have a thing, but it got kind of messy, so I broke it off.

And then we started texting

and since I'm not at the firm anymore and own my own outfit,

I invited him here.

I see.

What? You have thoughts?

No.

No. Just curious, is all.

Hmm, 'cause notice, I didn't ask about you and Billie.

It's professional. You know, she needed my help...

- No need to explain yourself. - I'm not explaining myself.

- And you never do. - Just focus on the work?

Mmm-hmm.

You see anything?

Maybe.

Look right here.

Watch the tree. Ready?

Someone messed with the footage.

Someone spliced something out.

- Bobby, you're up. - What's popping?

Someone cut something out of the footage. Can you retrieve it?

Yeah, I could. I'd have to break into the server.

You'd have to plug me in.

Any port on the server should give me access via your phone.

Okay.

That do anything?

In like Flynn.

Let the magician do his work.

All right. Looks like I got it. Check your screen.

Playing back now.

That's definitely Quinn.

Yeah, but who is that?

Who would she be meeting in the middle of the night?

Where the hell would she go?

That's the only video footage I got.

Can you rewind that for us so we can watch it again?

All right.

Here you go.

I don't get it. Why didn't she try running or fight them off?

She knows him.

That's why Reynolds lied about the footage.

Aura cleansing, huh?

- I found 'em. - That's your boss?

Let's go talk to him.

Why did you lie to us about the security footage?

- You deleted evidence. Why? - Who are you protecting?

I don't answer to you.

Thanks.

Okay. I got your text.

I came as fast as I could.

- Hey. Elliot Rush, attorney at law. - You called your lawyer?

Oh, he's not for us.

No she called me here for you, man.

Why would I need a lawyer?

To state the obvious, there's a missing woman out there.

And you tampered with evidence, so you're suspect numero uno.

Wait, um, stop.

Stop. You said nothing about tampering with evidence.

Are you kid... That's like serious jail time, depending how this ends.

But he might have a way out of it.

If you answer our questions.

I know I'm not technically your lawyer yet,

I advise you to take this deal.

So, who are you protecting?

We need to talk, don't we?

We know you have Quinn. We saw the footage.

Uh, what footage?

Reynolds gave you up.

Where is she?

And don't wave that NDA in my face.

Um... Thank you.

So, look, I didn't do anything to hurt her. I swear.

She came to me looking for help.

She had some stresses in her life

- that she was having a hard time dealing with. - Like what?

Her and Gray had just had a huge fight.

Selling a big stake in the company

and Gray wanted to sell to the highest bidder,

but Quinn, she was having an ethical dilemma.

And she comes to you for guidance.

She knew that I'd helped people resolve difficult issues in the past

using, um...

well, therapeutic substances.

Drugs. What drugs?

Well, it's not heroin.

Toad venom.

Like actual toad venom?

Yeah. That's not something you wanna mess around with.

Well, it has its uses.

Uh, so after she fought with Gray and had a bit of a temper tantrum,

you know, smashed her fist against the mirror,

climbed out of the window and she came to see me.

I gave her the toad venom and I directed her

to take it over by the lookout point, near the pond.

So why lie if you didn't hurt her? Why not just come clean?

I was freaked out. I didn't know what happened to her.

You don't understand. I was trying to help her.

I feel terrible about what happened,

and I wanna make it right.

So please, just tell me what to do.

Well, you can start by taking us to that lookout point.

I'm telling you, my guys have searched that entire area.

I don't care.

I need you to show me exactly where you told her to go.

Yeah. Yeah, okay.

Uh, this way.

The lookout point is about a quarter of a mile away.

We turn left at these tractors and head up the hill.

I don't think she went that way.

How do you figure that?

I think something made her go off this way.

Look at these branches, see, they're broken

and there's blood on the edge all the way up here.

It's on the wire here. See that?

I'm guessing she came through here. She wasn't stable,

and she was using the vines and the wire for support.

It's over here. Blood... look at this.

You see that? So, she...

Yeah, she went off this way.

Maybe the drugs you gave her kicked in.

Maybe something grabbed her attention.

Is this part of the property?

Uh, yeah. Yeah, uh, I'm having some villas built.

Permits finally came through. We break ground next week.

No cameras?

There's no need. There's nothing here yet.

- Mmm-hmm. - Reynolds and his team searched this area already.

They didn't find anything.

Got a cistern here?

Yeah, it's an old water trap.

One of the quirks of being an older vineyard.

How long has it been boarded up?

Years. I mean, as long as I've had the property.

But we keep it covered so there's no accidents.

Someone's been messing with these boards. Here, look at this.

See these screws? That one's missing. Here, right.

That doesn't make any sense.

Construction hasn't started yet.

Someone's been down here.

It doesn't look like there's anyone down there.

- You mind? - Yeah.

Thanks.

What is it?

Quinn's glasses.

What was she doing down there?

There's something else.

There's no way that's Quinn's foot.

- How can you be so sure? - Quicklime.

It's used to decomposed bodies.

That's the white residue you see.

And judging by the way that foot looks,

it's been buried for three months.

Plus the soil around it, no other body parts buried with it.

Wait. But if it's not Quinn's, whose is it?

- And where the hell is she? - Maybe she saw something she shouldn't have.

- You were planning on breaking ground next week? - Yeah.

This whole area was about to be dug up.

Whoever buried that body knew they were up against the clock.

They had to move it.

They weren't expecting Quinn to come stumbling through.

- Catching them in the act? - Why leave all the evidence?

Maybe Quinn interrupted him midway through the removal.

He had to hurry.

Judging by the amount of quicklime and the organic matter in that soil,

more than one body was buried down there.

What the hell is happening?

- Why are there so many bodies buried on my property? - I don't know.

We need to figure out a way to find Quinn and fast.

What is it?

Tire tracks. They look fresh.

From a utility vehicle, I guess,

something small enough to not make a ruckus,

but powerful enough to carry something heavy out of here.

Yeah, we have things like that all over the property.

The grounds people use them all the time.

Where's your maintenance shed?

Right... Just down that way.

And, uh, Reynolds is fully at your disposal.

Nobody knows the property like him.

Thank you.

I think I need to get the police involved.

And for that, I'm gonna need a lawyer.

I'll draw up the contract now.

But you owe me one.

Thank you.

Excuse me.

- Can I help you? - Maybe.

Is this yours?

We have a fleet of them.

But I'm sorry, guests really aren't supposed to be in this part of the grounds.

So, if you don't mind...

I'm not a guest, actually. Colter Shaw.

- Rona. - Rona.

I was wondering if you could help me out with something.

Depends.

Could you tell me who moved that ATV last night?

I was off yesterday.

But I can certainly ask around.

Thank you. Thank you. I appreciate that.

While you're doing that, uh,

can you find out who moved those three barrels that were resting over there?

Barrels?

Yeah, if you look at the floor there, you see those rings?

That indicates that there were three metal barrels

up until recently, say maybe yesterday.

There were three metal barrels resting right over here.

If you look at these marks here...

See that?

These right here would indicate that the barrels were tipped over on their side

and then rolled out right toward the UTV.

Which, of course, is usually the best way to roll barrels like that,

since they're generally pretty heavy.

How did you know that?

Occupational hazard.

Part of my job.

Strange line of work you must be in.

You have no idea.

Anyway, would you mind looking into that?

Who might have moved these barrels?

Well, it's a winery. A lot of barrels.

But I'm happy to ask.

Thank you.

Appreciate it.

- Thanks again. - Mmm-hmm.

All right.

Hey. Yeah, we got a problem.

Find out who she's calling?

Working as fast as I can here, my guy. Not exactly easy what I do.

- We're kind of on a time crunch. - Always is.

Okay, I can't get an ID. Whoever she's calling is using a burner.

But I am getting a ping from inside the property.

Any location?

Barrel room, basement level. Dropping you a pin.

I don't wanna hurt you any more than I have to.

Who sent you?

Give me a name.

Give me a name!

Pardue. Jessie Pardue.

- I work for him. - Doing what?

- He's a builder. - He pay you to move those barrels?

Were you there when he dug up those bodies?

What did you do with Quinn?

Nothing, man... I'm telling the truth.

Last I saw her, she was alive.

Where is she?

Where is she?

You ready?

I warned your guy, Haddock, about Shaw snooping around looking for her.

I told him to move the barrels.

What if Shaw finds them?

What are you doing? I thought we had a deal.

I'll get you your money in two days.

You don't understand.

My company is set to sell in 48 hours.

It is worth more money than you could spend in your whole life.

You just need to wait.

I don't think I have time anymore.

I'll give you whatever I have now.

I'll empty my bank account.

I need a phone and I can literally wire it to you in 10 minutes.

You must think I'm pretty dumb, don't you?

Giving you a phone so you can call for help?

I would never.

I promise, if you let me go, I will never say a word to anyone about what I saw.

I promise.

I can't take that chance.

I can't believe I missed it.

I fired a contractor a few years back

for not adhering to safety protocols.

The guy's name was Jessie Pardue.

Did some work around here.

That explains how he knew where to bury the bodies

where no one would look for 'em.

Plus, he had an in with the groundskeeper. Right?

He could sneak out of the property.

Just can't believe I missed it.

What matters now is that we find Quinn before they get rid of her.

- Reenie? - Hey, how far are you?

On our way to Pardue's house right now. ETA, five minutes.

The cops are on their way, too. They might make it there first.

Anything else from Pardue's guy?

No. Says he won't talk without his lawyer.

But in the meantime, I did some digging

and it sounds like several workers mysteriously disappeared over the years.

I've got Velma pulling files now.

No one looked into it?

Rumor had it that they were migrant workers

who returned to their home country so no one thought to look into it.

I just got word, police are arriving at Pardue's place now.

Did you hear that?

Got it.

Go, go, go!

Entry clear!

Clear!

Kitchen clear.

- Clear. - Clear.

- Clear. - All clear.

- Look in the bedroom. - Clear!

All rooms clear. No one's here.

Everything okay? What is it?

The house is empty. Quinn's not there.

Then where the hell is she?

- Hey, Colter. - I need your help and fast.

I know Renee's got you looking at files on Pardue.

Already on it. What are you looking for?

Remote job sites he was working on.

Got one.

He's not answering. He was supposed to move those barrels.

Something must've happened.

Shaw must've found them.

- We gotta kill her and get out of here. - What if we don't?

What if there's a plan B?

I've been thinking. Maybe we should reconsider the lady's offer.

The kind of money she's talking about, we can go anywhere.

- You think the cops will just stop looking for us? - We could explain.

What happened to those guys were accidents.

Things like that happen on construction sites all the time.

You didn't actually kill anyone.

- You just buried their bodies. - Don't you get it?

I gave the orders to cut corners.

Those guys died on my watch. I covered it up.

We're not murderers.

You're right.

No, no, no.

Do not do this.

What are you gonna do after you shoot?

People are looking for me.

You can't just hide the body anymore.

They'll find it.

I don't think that's gonna be an issue with this wood chipper.

Let's split up.

No! No! No!

- No! No, no! - Hey!

Right there, that's far enough. Stop.

I'm not here to arrest you. I just want Quinn.

Just hand her over and we'll leave.

I don't think you're in a position to negotiate.

Now, drop that gun!

You know I can't do that.

I'm not a threat.

Those other bodies,

accidents, right?

Construction's dangerous. I get it.

No one else has to get hurt. Just give me Quinn and we'll leave.

A lot of nerve you got,

saying that pointing your gun at me.

She's innocent. You wanna kill an innocent woman?

I'll do what I have to do.

Hey!

Ahh!

That's what you get, you son of a bitch.

Let's get you home.

You're all right.

You're all right.

Thank you.

I'm sorry.

Love you.

I wasn't sure how this was gonna shake out.

It worked out.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I misjudged you. I'm sorry.

All good.

- Quinn's safe and sound, right? - The other bodies?

You were right. They were all missing migrant workers.

At least the families have closure.

Can you imagine going years not knowing what really happened?

He's around here somewhere.

There he is.

- Ta-da! - Hmm.

Your payment.

Gray wanted me to say how grateful she was for everything you've done.

She even offered some stock options,

but I told her that you always prefer traditional payment.

And did you take the same deal for your cut?

No, I did not.

What can I say? I like options.

So, uh, you guys heading out?

Yeah, Elliot has a deposition he has to prep for.

This, uh, wasn't exactly the restful weekend that we had in mind.

No, but I did have a surprising dose of adventure.

It's not everyday you can say you helped find a missing woman.

It's incredible, what you do.

Thank you and thanks for letting us rope you in. It was good to meet you.

Yeah, likewise. It was, uh, really nice to put a face to the name.

I've heard a lot of interesting things.

I'll meet you at the car.

I just wanted to say thank you.

You know I can really count on you... especially with work.

Hope he knows how lucky he is.

Oh, he knows.
