Jesse: Joe, hi it's Jesse.
Sorry to bother you.
I know you're taking a personal day.
Yeah, I wouldn't exactly call transporting a prisoner-
halfway across the province a personal day.
No no, I know.
I know, I just meant-
Well, I mean-
you insisted that you be the one to handle this yourself.
And not make it a team thing.
Also, you weren't really forthcoming-
about why you volunteered to be the one to-
Jesse, is there a reason you called?
Yes, right.
Okay, do you remember the Clynburg case?
Clynburg.
Yeah, well it rings a bell.
80 thousand dollars worth of stolen music memorabilia.
Right right.
The cold case from about six years ago?
Eight years ago.
Time flies, right?
Anyway look.
One of the stolen items-
a hollow body guitar-
just made its way to the black market.
Donovan: Okay.
I mean it's the lead we've been waiting for.
Look, the guitar is in my hands as we speak.
So-
how do you want to proceed?
I don't know Jesse.
I'll get back to you.
Just take care of it, all right?
Thanks.

He didn't mention it to you?

was a disc-

the only reason you're here-
is to make this trip-
as miserable as possible.
It's more of a perk than a reason.
[Watson chuckles]
Funny guy.
So why are you here, Joe?
The moment I heard-
they were transferring you to a different prison-
I immediately thought you were going to try something.
Seriously?
You think I got a price on my head on purpose?
You tried to sell the leader of the Aryan Brotherhood
up the river.
Didn't think that wasn't going to get back to him?
Come on man.
Well I'm off my game.
12 years behind bars will do that to a guy.
Yeah, well you know what I think?
Enlighten me.
I think-
that you intentionally got on the wrong side of a killer-
so that they would have no choice but to transfer you.
Why would I do that?
It's easier to escape from a transfer-
than it is from the inside of a prison cell.
So I figured you would do that.
I've got less than 14 months left on my stretch.
Why would I try to escape-
when I can walk away a free man, huh?
Tell me that?
If you ratted out the Brotherhood-
we both know you're not going to survive 14 months.
So here we are.
You and me, man.
You and me.

You can't guarantee my safety on the inside.

No I can't.

Let me make one thing really clear okay?
I'm here for one reason.
That is to get you to Corner Brook without incident.
Change of venue?
Huh?
Yeah.
Yeah I just needed another place to think.
What do you have?
Okay so the robbery took place between 7:00 AM and 4:00 PM.
Now the owner, David Clynburg-
he was at the hospital for some planned surgery.
But when he got home-
the door was locked.
No signs of tampering.
First thing he notices-
is that the music memorabilia collection is gone.
Not a single other thing in the apartment-
was out of place.
Okay so it wasn't a random B&E.
His collection was targeted.
Probably by somebody Clynburg knew and trusted.
Right.
Which brings us to our suspects.
Here, have a seat.
Okay, suspect number one.
Ah- yeah.
This lady.
Tammy Markov.
She's Clynburg's neighbour.
He would have her over for tea and chess.
He also entrusted her with his spare condo key.
Anyone else have his key?
His family?
No, his wife passed away several years previous.
He had a son.
But they were estranged at the time.
Okay well so aside from the key-
what makes Tammy Markov such a compelling suspect?
Okay so Tammy-
she was moving out that exact same day.
She had movers coming and going-
in and out of the condo-
at the time of the robbery.
One of her movers-
this guy here-
Victor Hess-
he's had two priors for theft.
I mean what if he and Tammy were working together?
Stolen memorabilia just goes right out the front door-
in one of those moving boxes-
without anybody batting an eyebrow.
Makes sense.
The original investigators-
did they ever look into Tammy and Victor?
No, see here's the thing.
Tammy or Victor were never formally charged.
There was no trail to follow-
and no trace of the stolen memorabilia.
Until today.
So what's your next move?
Well I mean we're still waiting for the guitar-
to come back from forensics.
But in the meantime-
I'm thinking that we pay a visit to the condo.
Maybe the new owner will let us take a look around-
have a lay of the land, so to speak.
Okay.
Let me know how it goes.
Yeah?
That the right next move, yeah?
Can't hurt.

and oh- also-
insanely expensive album.
Unless-
Unless your copy and Mr. Clynburg's copy-
are one and the same.
How could I have robbed him?
I don't have a key.
And he had an alarm system.
Yes.
But it wasn't activated Miss Harris.
I couldn't have known that.
That's fair.
But you didn't actually need to go through the front door.
Did you?
See Mr. Clynburg's apartment had a wall adjacent to yours.
So I'm betting-
judging by this phenomenal repair work-
if I move your stove away from the wall-
we would just be able to go right into-
Mr. Clynburg's apartment.
Isn't that right?
Shall we take a look Miss Harris?
Are you even a real cop?
I'm a special constable-
assigned to this case.
What kind of cop doesn't carry a gun?
I mean, for all I know-
you're here to rob me.
I'm not.
A woman alone in her home has a right to defend herself.
Watson: I could really use a drink.
Yeah.
Yeah, you and me both.
[clinking bottles]
It's a shame these are empty man.
Yeah well if they weren't they'd probably be skunky by now so-

Oh man-
still better than the toilet gin they serve at club Fed.
Hey.
A toast.

You know man, I spent years-
blaming you for everything that went wrong in my life.
Well the part of me that's still your friend-
can't help but feel guilty for how I things went down.
I should have handled them differently.
I should have protected you.
Yeah, from myself.
No.
Fact is-
you're a good cop, Donny.
You did what you needed to do.
You know I'm serious about what I said before.
I can help you.
[bottles clinking in distance]
They found us.
Stand back.
Hey hey.
Maybe it's your guys?
No no.
They would have identified themselves.
[clinking bottles and cans]
Okay listen.
You need to get out of here.
Okay?
Uh-
I need you to keep your head down.
And stay as far away from St. John's as possible.
What about you?
I'll be fine.
I'll create a distraction-
a diversion-
give you some time to escape okay?
Just- be safe.
You sure?
I'm sure.
You be safe partner.
Okay?
Go on.

they have a search team en route.

You know, you should be thanking me.

Knox would have shot him-
killed him.

Wait.

It wasn't you who pawned off the guitar, was it?
Why do you say that?
Well I mean if it was-
then you must have known-
the police would be back to investigate.
You would have been more careful to hide the stolen record.
Who were you working with?
Look Miss Harris.
If you cooperate-
I mean, you can make a deal.
Probably get probation instead of prison.
Why would you want to defend the person-
foolish enough to lead the police to your front door?
That's-
a good point.
It was Clynburg's son's idea.
[Harris sighs]
He knew his dad was sick.
And he didn't want to see his inheritance-
handed over to a museum.
Wait- so you gave him access-
to his Dad's unit through your kitchen.
Yeah.
He packed up everything in here and left with it.
One of the other owners was moving out at the same time.
So no one noticed that he was carrying out boxes.
What about the Clifford Brown record?
It's all I wanted.
[Shawna sighs]
You risked a lot for it.
The curse of being a collector.
Just knowing I have it-
makes me feel like I've accomplished something.
