It wasn't supposed to be this way!
Come on, let's just talk about it!
You think it's too late to cook dinner?
Don't you even think about ordering delivery.
You promised risotto. I'm holding you to it.
Yeah, but I wasn't expecting to be at the station that late.
Rex, you break the tie.
What is it?
Wait, is someone inside?
Call for backup.
Yeah, hi, I've got a B and E and I need backup.
SJPD! Drop the weapon!
Drop the weapon now!
Sarah. We've got a gunshot wound.
His pulse is weak and thready. He's alive but barely.
Charlie.
I wanted to make it here in time but he tried to stop me.
It's coming for you, Charlie.
It's on the way.
He's gone.
Charlie, he knew your name. Who is he?
I don't know.
I've never seen this man in my life.
Yeah, I know, I know, pal.
We've just gotta let forensics do their job.
Charlie.
- Hey. - I came as soon as I heard.
- You're all right? - Yeah, I'm obviously taken off guard
but we're okay.
Okay, we're gonna have our best on this case.
- Did you give your statement yet? - Joe, I, um,
I think I need to be on the case.
That's not a good idea, Charlie.
We don't know yet why this man entered your home.
I heard he had a gun.
I don't think it was intended for me.
You can't know that for sure.
- Did he say something? - Yeah, he said that
he was trying to stop him
whoever that is.
And something is coming for me.
And that doesn't sound like a threat?
It sounded like a warning.
Joe, this man he found my address.
He came to the house. He called me by name.
He was here because he needed help.
I feel like I've got to follow that through.
Okay.
Okay, but I need you to stay sharp.
Hmm?
- Thanks, Joe. - Yeah.
Okay, pal. Good to go.
So, we got a name for our surprise guest?
No phone, no wallet, no ID.
Of course. How long was he here before we arrived?
Based on the rate of blood loss
I'd say about half an hour.
So, we just missed him.
Yeah.
What have you got?
Lock picking tools.
That explains how he got in.
John Doe wasn't shot here.
No. There was no sign of blood spatter.
He was shot with a 9mm caliber at close range.
That means he picked my front door lock
with a bullet in him.
That's a real professional.
With the shock he'd be in,
pro is putting it lightly.
I mean, he can't have gone far with that bullet.
That means he was shot nearby.
Rex.
Track it.
Hey.
The vehicle's abandoned.
Two shots. One got John Doe.
One took out a side mirror.
For a car that's no longer here.
Our John Doe drove here.
He was followed by a killer in that SUV.
The killer left the SUV behind
and took the car that John Doe drove.
It's not a carjacking.
Maybe there was something in the victim's car
the killer didn't want us to find.
Whatever it was,
the person who followed our victim
wanted to stop him before he got to me.
Still no ID on our John Doe?
No, no. Facial recognition software was a total bust.
Our victim isn't even in the database.
- No hits on his fingerprints. - Any info on the vehicles?
Well, the vehicle left at the scene
belonged to a single mother in Mount Pearl.
It was reported stolen earlier this week.
Usually you steal a car to sell it.
So, they were using it for something.
Maybe for whatever happened to John Doe
before he turned up at your place.
There were traces of someone else's blood spatter on his forehead.
His last words were "I tried to stop him."
He must have witnessed something.
And he wanted to tell you about it.
Witness to or involved in?
I also found traces of talcum powder
and plasticizer on his hands.
That could be used in rudimentary improvised explosives.
So, our John Doe was building a bomb?
Well, without signs of accelerant,
I'm not willing to say for certain.
Jesse, any luck tracing the car that the killer got away in?
Well, I checked all the traffic cams in your neighbourhood.
There's no sign of a vehicle with a broken side mirror.
Our killer couldn't have taken it far.
Right, we have a boundary that we know the car didn't leave.
And that's our search area.
Good job, Jesse. Come on, Rex.
Yeah, I see it.
Come on.
There's got to be some ID in here somewhere.
The VIN's scratched out.
What have you got?
Hmm.
- Charlie? - I found the getaway car.
I'm gonna take a photo of a lock picking set
we found in the back seat.
See if you can identify this logo.
Yeah, give me a sec.
Charlie, it's funny you've...
you found a lock because I've got a key for you.
I was going through the autopsy photos again
and there was a strange discoloration on the victim's bicep.
Under UV light I realized it's a tattoo.
Or it was, before it was mostly lasered off.
I recognize this tattoo.
- Really? - Mm-hmm.
From a guy named Lennie Tripp.
I arrested him five years ago
but not before he robbed eight of the wealthiest houses
in St. John's in under a week.
It seems too specific a design to be a coincidence, no?
Yeah, I'm gonna find out.
Lennie had a lenient sentence.
- I bet he's back on the street by now. - Oh!
I know where you might be able to find him, Charlie.
The logo belongs to Proudlok Security Solution.
A locksmithing business partly owned by Lennie Tripp.
Now we're talking.
Send me the address.
Hey, there.
What can I do for you?
Detective Hudson, SJPD.
That's my partner, Rex.
Darryl Gilbert.
Where'd you find that?
- You recognize it? - Yeah, of course.
Tools of the trade.
I've got mine right here.
But we don't sell these to the public.
They're for locksmith outcalls only.
Well, this one was found inside a vehicle
that had a connection to a murder last night.
A murder?
- Yeah. - Well, the only other person
I know who has one of these is my boss.
Is your boss Lennie Tripp?
No. That'd be his brother, Spencer.
What's he doing?
He's picking up on a scent.
Do you have a photo of Spencer?
Yeah.
Rex.
Your boss isn't coming in to work today.
He was murdered last night.
What can you tell me about Spencer?
Has he seemed off lately?
I don't know. He had a temper that could bite, if you crossed him.
Maybe a little more lately.
Money's been tight.
You haven't seen his brother Lennie around, have you?
Yeah, he comes by once in a while.
I actually walked in on them having a talk
and whatever it was, it seemed pretty serious.
Baby, why are you giving me such a hard time?
Come on!
What are you doing to me?
Lennie?
Been a while.
Not long enough, Detective.
Whatever it is,
take it up with my parole officer.
Will she be able to account for your whereabouts last night?
My tab at Greensleeves Pub can.
Trust me, I've been doing whatever I can
to keep my hands clean.
Well, that usually involves retaining employment.
You're not working at your family's locksmith business?
You know a convicted felon can't be a bonded locksmith.
It don't matter.
My little brother's taking care of the family business
while I'm on parole.
I have some bad news about your brother.
Lennie.
He was murdered last night.
He was shot by an unknown assailant.
When was the last time you spoke with Spencer?
About a year ago.
The employee at Proudlok said that you've been in recently.
Well, you've been misinformed.
My brother and I haven't exactly seen eye-to-eye
since you put me away.
That why he got his tattoo removed?
Removed?
Are you trying to suggest I had something to do with this?
There is evidence your brother was involved in criminal activity.
My brother hated my guts for getting put away.
When our father died,
he dealt with it alone while I was locked up.
So, take those accusations out of your mouth.
Or I will.
Lennie.
Your brother showed up on my doorstep last night.
Dying.
Carrying a gun.
If you know why,
you need to tell me.
I have no clue what kind of stuff Spencer was into.
But you caught me.
He must have thought you were pretty smart.
I am sorry for your loss.
Come on.
Hey Jesse.
- Yeah. - You think you can look into
Lennie Tripp's whereabouts last night?
And see if he's connected with that stolen SUV.
Yeah, you think he looks good for it?
Yeah, maybe. Maybe.
I saw him working on an old junker.
He may have lost his car
after that SUV was ditched last night.
My team has finished with their examination of your place.
It'll still be cordoned off for another 24 hours.
Well, it looks like Rex and I are your problem again tonight.
Oh.
A package came for you.
Huh.
It's from Proudlok.
It's coming to you. That's what Spencer said.
Think this is what he meant?
Charlie, the plasticizer.
What's going on?
Spencer may have been building a bomb
and it could be in this box.
Everybody out.
Now!
Everyone, evacuate!
- Yes, sir. - Right away!
- Yeah, let's go! - Everybody out.
Rex!
No, Charlie. We play this by the book.
We call in the bomb squad.
I know Rex's alert behaviours.
I don't think he's detecting explosives.
Charlie, do you really think that's the safest plan?
Yeah, easy, pal.
- _ - We don't know what's on this thing.
So, this laptop
is not connected to the station servers.
Better to be safe. Right, Charlie?
- Uh... - It's a video file.
Detective Hudson.
My name is Spencer Tripp.
You don't know me but I know you.
My brother Lennie wouldn't shut up about you
when I'd visit him in prison.
And he needs our help now.
A week ago, a man named Darryl arrived at the shop.
Darryl was at the shop this morning.
He wanted my help with a job
but didn't say what it was.
He said if I refused,
that my brother would be killed.
He said if I went to the police
or if I tried to talk to Lennie,
Lennie would be killed.
And he said if anything happened to him,
his business partners would follow through
and kill Lennie.
He does look genuinely frightened.
Darryl's watching.
I don't know how but he's tracking my movements.
So, I can't come to the station.
I can't call you.
But I can send you one of these videos
with the regular Tuesday shipments from the shop.
Darryl hasn't given me specifics.
I don't know what the plan is
or when it's going down.
But I'll try to get proof.
And I'll send you another video as soon as I can.
We've got to catch Darryl in the act
and make sure Lennie doesn't get hurt.
- Jesse. When was this recorded? - Let me see.
Monday night.
It doesn't look like he had the chance to record another.
He didn't have to.
I have everything I need from this.
We've got to catch Darryl in the act
and make sure Lennie doesn't get hurt.
After a year of silence,
I really thought Spencer was through with me.
Who is this guy Darryl to you and why is he threatening to kill you?
I didn't act alone in those burglaries five years ago.
Darryl cased the joints.
I picked the locks and got the goods.
You understand that if you had given Darryl up,
you could have taken years off your sentence.
Yeah. I thought I was doing myself a favour.
Darryl's not the kind of guy you want to cross.
Which is why Spencer believed
Darryl would follow through on this threat to kill you?
I got a visit from Darryl
just before my release in prison.
He wanted to start up a new job for when I got out.
But I refused.
And he just took no for an answer?
I thought so.
But with you out, he needed a new partner.
If I'd have known
that Darryl would have sunk his hooks into my little brother,
I would've done whatever he asked me to do.
But why go to Spencer?
He's not a criminal.
He had the same skill set as you.
Ah.
Yeah, our father taught us the trade.
Spencer didn't want my life.
He was honest.
You've got to promise me you're gonna make Darryl
pay for killing my brother!
All right, partner.
Hopefully something at Spencer's place will tell us
what Darryl had planned.
A GPS tracker.
Spencer was right. Darryl was keeping an eye on him.
Good find, partner.
- Hey, Joe. - Yeah, Charlie.
I've got Sarah here.
I've got news on the getaway car.
I managed to reconstruct the scratched-out ID number.
Yeah, it belongs to a man named Aaron Sumner.
He works for Avalon National Bank.
Well, maybe Aaron is a part of Darryl's crew.
Inside guy at the bank?
Have we located him yet?
We spoke to his wife
and she said that he moved out a few weeks ago.
Okay, well, we'll go check the bank.
And I found a GPS tracker in Spencer Tripp's car keys.
Sarah, did you find a tracker in the SUV?
I don't think so
- but we'll double-check. - Okay, thanks.
Charlie Hudson, SJPD.
This is my partner, Rex. I'm looking for Aaron Sumner.
You and me both.
He hasn't been in today. I've been trying to reach him.
Carmen Silva, regional bank manager. What's this about?
We found Aaron's car abandoned this morning.
What does he do here at the bank?
He's the operations manager,
in charge of internal services and data systems.
Hmm, would you mind if I took a look at his office?
Sure. Right this way.
Biometric scanners on the locks? That's pretty high tech.
Yeah. We're actually a subsidiary of a Saudi Arabian national bank.
They spared no expense. This is Aaron's office.
I heard Aaron moved recently.
- Do you have his new address? - No.
But he did mention he was looking at an Airbnb on Falkland Street.
What was hanging here?
Family photos.
Aaron's been having some trouble at home.
I think it was too painful to keep them up.
Has he been acting strangely lately?
A little. But I just
chalked it up to his marital problems.
If he was getting a divorce,
it could have caused financial pressure.
Listen, is there something I should be concerned about?
Well, that's what I'm trying to figure out.
Have you seen either of these two men
talking with Aaron here?
No, sorry.
Now, you know what being frozen out feels like.
You know where to find me.
Oh, ransomware!
What does an electronic attack have to do with Spencer?
He's a lock and key guy.
If I can get past this, I might be able to find out.
You were right about the stolen SUV.
We found a tracker behind the wheel well.
Are we able to get the history from it?
- Jesse's working on it. - Done.
Yeah, it looks like every day for the past week
the SUV drove to a residential street
and parked from 9:00 to 11:00.
Yeah.
That's Lennie's old M.O.
when he was on his burglary spree.
They were casing the place.
Well, look. There's the trip to your neighbourhood last night
ending where Spencer Tripp was shot.
And starting on Falkland Street.
Is that significant?
It's where we're gonna find Aaron Sumner. Rex.
It could be any one of these houses. So, we'd better start knocking.
Or we'll do it your way.
Aaron Sumner?
SJPD. We're coming in.
Lividity suggests Aaron Sumner died last night.
Likely within hours of Spencer Tripp's death.
And possibly, with the same weapon.
A 9 millimetre casing.
I'm thinking Darryl and Spencer brought these zip-ties...
and planned on restraining him.
But Aaron fought back.
Aaron came at them with a knife.
Got shot.
Spencer was an unwilling participant.
He was just trying to gather evidence on Darryl.
Probably wasn't expecting this level of violence.
Darryl shoots Aaron.
Spencer now has blood on his hands. So, he panics.
He swipes Aaron's keys.
And then Spencer drives to your house.
Darryl follows him in the stolen SUV.
But then what was all this for?
Like why case this place and then come in
when Aaron is home?
They wanted him to be home.
He was the target.
Something to do with his role at the bank?
Yeah. Yeah, that would make sense.
Darryl's graduated from
cat burglaries to something much bigger.
A bank heist.
Looks like some kind of residue on his hands.
We should test to see what Rex is alerting to.
I know what you're gonna find.
Plasticizer and talcum powder.
It wasn't bomb components.
They were here to steal Aaron Sumner's handprint.
Is it even possible to duplicate someone's handprint?
It cannot be that simple to fool a biometric security system!
There was heavy duty epoxy putty
all over Aaron's hand and fingertips.
I mean, it could produce an accurate mold.
Well, both of these murders had to do with bank heists.
Yeah, and Charlie thinks Darryl still might make a move on the bank.
- Why? - Darryl took care to hide the connection
between Aaron and Spencer when he tried
to destroy the VIN on Aaron Sumner's car.
But we've had no luck tracking Darryl down.
Well, Charlie's on the way to warn the bank's manager.
Aaron's handprint gave him access
to the servers, the vault, everything.
We believe his handprint was stolen.
And that's why he was killed?
The man who's involved in this is very dangerous.
I have to get back to the bank
and make sure Aaron's clearance is revoked
and that handprint is useless.
I have another idea.
Hey, Jesse. You working late?
Yeah, I couldn't walk away from this ransomware, Charlie.
It's a nice bit of coding but I finally found a decryption tool.
Traced it to a source.
Elijah Arneaux.
An IT coder who was recently fired from Avalon Bank.
Okay, so the ransomware could have been
retribution for being fired
and it had nothing to do with Darryl's plan.
Yeah, I'd agree, except Elijah Arneaux's name
also pops up on Proudlok's accounts.
He made a purchase at the shop a few days before the murders.
Okay, Jesse. Why don't you bring in Elijah
- and see what you can find out? - Oh, yeah.
I'd like to meet this guy.
Charlie. Is the bank closed?
Yeah. Carmen just locked up.
We've got one security guard inside.
Back up in position?
Yeah, they're out of sight.
All right. Well, let's hope Darryl feels comfortable.
Elizah, do you know why you're here?
Isn't all of this a bit of um...
overkill for pirating one season of Death Note?
Look, piracy is a crime.
But this is about Aaron Sumner.
Aaron?
Aaron filed a police complaint,
over the little gift I sent him?
Look, that wasn't... embedded.
It wasn't a back door attack.
- It was just... - No no, but it was attached
- to an email with your name on it. - Yeah.
Exactly.
So, if he opened it and downloaded it,
that's kind of on him.
Well, maybe he opened it because he knew you.
You worked for him for months, right?
He opened it because he's computer illiterate.
Okay, like the man's supposed to be the head of digital security.
Like, what a joke, right?
I worked there for two days.
And I found massive holes in the internal infrastructure.
I ran some White Knight
hacker test runs
to demonstrate some of the flaws.
And then Aaron flips out and is like,
"Ah, you compromised the system!"
"You're destroying company confidence!"
The moron fires me.
- And now I can't pick up a job anywhere. - Elijah.
Aaron was killed last night.
- I didn't have anything to do with that. - No, I know. I know.
We're picking up the guy who's behind it tonight.
- So, why am I here then? - Well, because,
I took a look under the hood of your code
and it's really complex stuff.
But it turns out, it granted you access to Aaron's email remotely
which the Canadian Criminal Code
basically treats as a break-and-enter.
You're under arrest.
Yeah, I know. It's another nine hours 'til the bank opens.
Don't fall asleep on me now.
- Oh! Life saver! - Hey.
Here you go. I've got something for you too.
Anything yet?
Yeah, no sign of Darryl.
Security guard inside is checking in every 15 minutes.
He's on to something.
Go.
The security guard is a fake.
Darryl's in the bank. All units, I repeat, Darryl is in the bank!
Go, go, go, go!
Rex!
Lennie, stop!
I know, I know, buddy.
A wig and a stolen uniform.
Darryl posed as a security guard to get into the bank.
He was here the whole time.
Well, it gave him plenty of time to use this.
A handprint mould.
It's supposed to set off a silent alarm
but we never got a notification.
No. And the real security guard ID'd Darryl.
Said he jumped into his vehicle on his way to work.
Hit him over the head, took his uniform and then
locked him in the trunk. He woke up and started pounding
and that's when Rex heard him.
And Darryl knew that we were watching.
He got into the bank before it was locked.
But that was Lennie's car. What was Lennie doing here?
I guess he was the getaway driver.
That means that Lennie's still mixed up with Darryl.
So, Darryl accessed the vault?
No.
He wasn't after the vault.
It's an APT. Advance Persistent Threat heist.
What you do is you infect a bank's servers.
You monitor the transfers and then figure out
how to discretely transfer the funds out.
- This doesn't seem discrete to me. - No, no.
It's a sledgehammer. $18.5 million gone before we shut it down.
So, where's the money?
Well, it looks like it's in one account
belonging to Spencer Tripp.
Someone converted it to Bitcoin moments ago.
Can you trace the transaction?
Can do.
Huh. Yeah, it looks like it happened at ProudLok.
Rex and I will check it out. Come on, pal.
18 and a half million.
How did he pull that off?
Well, that's the easy part.
He plugged a USB into a computer
with access to the bank's servers.
The hard part was writing the program that was on the USB.
And where's your ransomware programmer?
He's in holding.
Morning.
You know, if I'm right, you're a richer man than you were yesterday.
What was your cut of the Avalon heist?
I don't know what you're talking about, man.
Come on Elijah. Don't be modest.
This is seriously impressive stuff.
Bypassing customer authentication.
Overriding maximum transfer limits.
You've got a gift!
Yeah, I told you, the Avalon system has like major holes in it.
So, you admit you programmed the code?
Okay, Elijah.
Talk now and it might buy you a lesser sentence.
Well, I...
Okay, yeah.
Yeah, I did.
I just didn't think anyone was gonna die over this!
How'd you get involved?
I just got a call with an offer.
And then I met with this locksmith guy, Spencer.
They just told me to drop the code
- at the same spot on Monday. - Monday?
Totally reasonable deadline. Right?
And then two days later,
I get a different call from a different guy
saying he needs it the next day!
So, I stay up all night working.
But you got it done.
Did you you deliver it to this man?
I just brought it straight to the bank.
They told me to put the USB in a planter in the lobby.
And then two hours later, there's officers at my door
and I'm here with you.
Did Darryl pick up the USB from there?
I don't know, man. I haven't heard the name Darryl
like once in all of this.
You got a cold call to start this whole thing.
Who knew you were the right guy for the job, Elijah?
Beats me.
This was so stupid.
No such thing as easy money, is there?
- Aaghh! - Darryl, freeze!
Agghh!
Well, that must have hurt.
Good job, partner.
Come on.
We've been looking for you everywhere, Darryl.
You're under arrest.
You're telling me that Lennie Tripp
is the mastermind behind this whole thing?
- That's the truth. - Ha.
Well, Spencer Tripp has a different story.
He sent me a message before he died
that said that you threatened to kill Lennie
if he didn't go along.
Lennie got me to say that to Spencer to keep him in line.
Yeah and what did he say to you to keep you in line?
Hmm?
You're trying to tell me that...
that Lennie killed Aaron Sumner and his own brother?
Lennie's looking for a big score, okay?
The kind of score that sets you up
on an island for the rest of your life.
Lennie is, huh?
There's just one problem with that, Darryl.
Yeah, what's that?
The bank manager, Carmen.
Ahhh.
She let you into the bank last night
as if she didn't recognize you weren't the regular security guard.
She also lied to me
about having Aaron's Sumner's handprint removed from the system.
I guess he's got something on her, too.
But I'll tell you something.
You better hope that he's planning on sharing
because otherwise, you've got a guy
with a gun you can connect to two deaths.
Three, if you're not already too late.
Do you believe him?
Whether Lennie masterminded the whole thing
or he caught up with Darryl to get revenge for Spencer's death,
- Darryl was right about one thing. - Carmen was in on it.
Yeah, she knew to hire Elijah to program the virus
and she helped Darryl intercept the Guard
who was on duty last night.
You think Lennie will do something stupid?
Not if we find him first.
All you've got to do is tell the truth!
And nobody gets hurt!
I told you! I don't know what you're talking about!
Lennie, you don't want to do this.
I know what I want, Detective.
I want everyone who dragged Spencer into this to pay.
We found Darryl where you left him.
You want to get revenge?
He's gonna go away for a long time.
For killing my brother?
It's not enough.
You weren't involved in this heist from the beginning?
You think if I knew about it, I'd let Spencer take the fall?
How'd you end up as Darryl's getaway driver?
I told him I wanted in.
No offense, Detective, but I have a little less faith
in you than Spencer did. I needed to ride sidesaddle on this
to make sure Darryl didn't get away with it.
But then he leaves the bank empty-handed.
I don't see what I have to do with any of this.
Give it up, lady!
You already gave me the Bitcoin key!
You're in this for the money?
It's not about the money!
She put the idea in Darryl's head!
She may as well have put a bullet in Spencer herself!
Okay. Okay, Lennie.
You've caught her.
You're done now. We're taking this.
Spencer died trying to protect you.
Life in prison isn't what he wants for you.
Easy, Carmen.
I'm gonna get in my car.
I want the Bitcoin and I want Darryl released.
We've got plane tickets.
That's not how this works.
I've come too far to give up now, Detective.
You knew the flaws in the bank's security, huh?
Convinced Darryl that you needed Aaron's handprint.
And he brought in Spencer so no one could trace
the breaking back to me.
Darryl should have listened to me sooner.
I told him as soon as you have the key,
- get rid of that do-gooder, Spencer. - I'll kill you.
Oh!
Don't move.
Good job, Rex.
How did you get mixed up with Darryl in the first place?
He came into the bank looking for a business loan.
Just a guy looking for a second chance.
I take it the loan was denied?
Darryl doesn't have any assets,
except for his good looks.
Good match.
Officer.
You know I'm gonna have to take you in, too.
Yeah, I figured as much.
Look...
I had to make sure the people who killed Spencer got caught.
Runs in the family.
But...
you got me Darryl, so,
I'm gonna see if I can get a judge to drop the accessory charges.
You know,
this might help.
It's the USB key for the Bitcoin.
I got it from Carmen just before you guys showed up.
Just don't say I never gave you anything.
I've got something for you too.
_
Tripp Brothers Security.
Your brother believed in you.
He wanted you two to run the company together.
Yeah.
I'll never get bonded though.
Maybe that's my angle!
I mean, who better to install a security system than a thief?
I know what works best at keeping bad guys like me out.
Funny you should mention that.
