- Previously on Warehouse 13...
- What'd that have to do with me being pregnant?
- Well, I've been thinking, you know,
Am I ever gonna have a family?
When it happens for real,
I think that you'll make a pretty great mom.
- You have been lying to me.
- Your sister--she's an incredibly dangerous woman.
- I haven't forgotten about claire.
I want to know about my sister.
- My whole life has been a lie.
- A little bit dramatic, don't you think?
- Steve, if you found out, suddenly,
That your sister was still alive,
It would be a pretty big deal for you, no?
- Of course, but-- - Okay, now multiply that
By about infinity, because the guy who's been lying to you
About it is the only real father figure
You've ever known. - Okay, your life is worse.
Congrats. But I'm sure that Artie
Had a good reason. - Yeah, me too.
This was a Warehouse case. Look at the angle of the wreck.
Have you ever seen a car fling itself into a tree
From a dead stop?
- Okay, so what do we do?
- Now that I know it's Warehouse,
I'd say give me a couple hours to decrypt the classified files,
And we can get to work. - Or you could let me show you.
- And that is the best gay news website that I'm--
Hey, Artie, is that a new brown jacket?
- All right, all right.
I know that you're researching claire.
And I also know no stern words or dire warnings
Are gonna stop you, so...
I've decided to show you claire myself.
- What? What's the catch?
- There's no catch.
This way I can keep an eye on you.
- Is he lying?
- No, he is not.
- Stop staring at me.
- I understand you've been given a clean bill of health.
- Yes, short of an occasional checkup,
I am free and clear. - Oh, good for you.
What about children?
[cups clatter] Is there still an option?
- Well, I, uh...
[laughs] Why do you ask?
- Well, sometimes in an event such as this,
A woman can reevaluate her priorities,
Ask herself if...
There's more to life
While there's still time.
- Oh.
Ah... Oh, no, Mrs. Frederic,
I am 100% here.
I am committed to my job.
I'm not really looking for anything more.
- Understood.
But there's no need to close that door forever.
Possibilities are what make life interesting.
- First I would have to find someone that I'm in love with
Or someone I-I'd at least consider
The possibility of having kids.
- What about me? - What?
Pete. Right.
See? I already have a child.
- No, I mean you could have kids with me.
- Ah. - We could totally do it
Without even having sex.
- That's enticing,
But...
Mrs. F...
And poof! - Whoosh.
- She's gone. How convenient.
I wish I could do the same.
- Okay, how about this?
If in ten years neither of us has found anyone--
- Oh, a murder-suicide pact--
Yes, that's a great idea.
Look, can we stop talking about this and just get back to work?
Hopefully, we'll find an artifact that will kill us
Before I have to do it myself.
- Who told you kicking someone's butt is the way to win his vote?
- Come on, congressman, if I let you win,
You wouldn't be able to trust me at all.
- No, but I'd like you a lot more.
- The point is, my clients have done the research
And provided the data. Fracking is absolutely safe.
[coughs]
We all have to live in this world to--
[coughing]
- Gavin.
What the hell?
Gavin!
Somebody get help.
[indistinct chatter]
- What? Simkins and meyer!
- What? Bering and Lattimer!
Both: Hey, hey, hey!
- Hey. - Hi. How are you?
- I'm doing great. - Good to see you.
Hey! [overlapping greetings]
- Oh, my, gosh, Myka, you look great.
- You too! - Oh, my, gosh.
You just disappeared into south dakota.
We couldn't find anything out.
- Yeah, but you tried, though, didn't you?
- No, not about that--
About you two. - What?
- That whole museum thing, the guys at the office
Had a pool going-- hook up or kill each other.
[chuckles] - Oh, well, neither one so far,
But I wouldn't rule out both.
What about you, partner?
- [chuckles] yeah. - Yeah.
- Uh, huh.
So what are you guys doing here?
Is the victim a v.I.P.?
- No, no. His name's gavin tager.
Oil and natural gas lobbyist .
But the vice president and two dignitaries were on site
When it happened. - Okay, so...
Suspicious incident, v.I.P.S all around, right?
Must have set off some alarms.
- Yeah, we're looking at a biological agent--
Eco or foreign terrorism.
The victim's lungs spontaneously filled with fluid,
And there's this.
- What is that?
Sand. - Yeah.
Coughed it up with the water.
- All right, so what are you guys thinking?
Since he's in the oil business,
This is some kind of twisted message or...
- Maybe. We want to know what you guys are thinking.
We heard you were into weird woo-woo kind of cases.
- Ohh... - ♪ woo ♪
- ♪ ah ♪ - So, uh...
We figure we'll share intel
Till we can put any terrorism fears to bed.
So, for now, we are all partners.
- Huh?
- Huh? Excellent.
[laughter]
- Artie, what is this? Is claire in the Warehouse,
Or are you just not taking us to her?
- Patience, and all will be revealed.
- I've heard about those.
Pete and jane went into her memories with them.
- Artie, I don't have a ton of memories of claire.
I mean, I was seven years old.
I didn't see my parents die, so...
- I...
I did.
I did. You're right, Claudia.
This was a Warehouse case...
My case.
You and I are both going back into my memories.
You're gonna find out what happened to claire.
- And that's supposed to replace you taking me to her?
I mean, you got her dna. You know where she is.
- How about we just start with this,
And hopefully you'll understand why I did what I did,
And then I won't have to put up with being stared at by steve
For the rest of my life.
- I might still do that, though, just for fun.
- Okay, you know what?
- All right, okay.
- You keep an eye on us while we're in there.
And, you, follow my instructions, for a change.
Remember, the danger of using these shoes
Is that we get seduced by the memories
So we don't want to come out.
You and I are going in there together
So that we both make it out.
Understood?
- Yes. Let's do this, please.
[commotion]
- It's okay. You're not really here.
- Help me! [kids shouting]
- This is claire's school-- her first incident.
Claudia...
This will be disturbing.
[clattering, thudding]
- Help!
- Claire, please stop.
Please, claire!
Stop. Please!
- Claire?
- [gasping] help me!
Aah! Help!
[object shatters]

- Energy freedom through hydraulic fracturing act.
- Oh, fracking-- drilling for natural gas.
- Yeah. - So this is the bill
That tager was trying to get passed?
- That's right--increases fracking on protected lands.
- Did he have any enemies?
Was anyone vehemently opposed to this bill?
- A few-- environmentalists,
Rivaling oil gas companies, opec.
- Right.
- Say, elise? - Yeah?
- I was wondering, uh... You busy tonight?
I thought maybe we could catch up on old times.
- Uh, can't. Sorry. I have a, uh, thing.
[clears throat] - A thing?
Yeah, well, I mean, I got a thing too.
I thought maybe we could combine our things.
- Oh, my thing's private.
In fact, um, ooh,
I should get going to my thing right now.
[drawer clangs closed] - Right.
Okeydoke, I'll be here, alone with my thing.
- Okay, so, uh, catch up with you guys tomorrow?
- Sure. - Great.
- What'd you say to her? - Nothing?
I asked her out, and she turned me down,
Which I find highly suspicious.
Hey, but don't worry-- me hitting on other women
Does not change my offer of platonic childbearing.
- I liked it better when you just stared at my boobs.
- I can do both. Whoa! Just did.
[chuckles] I'm kidding. Mykes, hey.
You freeze some eggs. I'll freeze some sperm.
It's all done with ice-cube trays and turkey basters.
- Oh, no, of course, mrs. Evans.
Ha! Well, I completely understand.
Mm-hmm.
Matter of fact, I have your letter with me right now.
Yeah, I'll take it up with my staff
First thing in the morning.
Oh, not at all!
It's what you sent me to washington to do.
Now you take care. [beep]
[coughing]
[retches]
- It's a good week for indoor drownings.
A senator this time--
Honorable john wilton, of missouri.
- Yeah, I heard. Field office wants some answers.
- Is that a parking ticket?
Why didn't your service plates stop the--
- Yeah, I'll get that fixed.
I got it running errands last night.
So I, uh, pulled wilton's phone records.
His last conversation was with a constituent--harriet evans.
Wrote to him about a zoning issue.
Said he promised he'd look into it.
- Yeah, that's the letter.
I think she's gonna be pretty disappointed
With her senator's follow-through.
- Oh, yeah.
- Salt.
- How's that?
- Nothing. Uh, Pete and elise
Are interviewing the senator's staff.
We should get going. - Yeah, sure.
- Yes, the senator ruffled some feathers, but--
[crash] [gasps] uh...
Thank you.
Please.
Senator wilton was one of the natural-gas industry's
Most ardent supporters.
He and mr. Tager interacted on a daily basis.
- Then we'll need the senator's calendar
To compare with tager's, ms....
- Uh, diane hewlett.
I'm the senator's--
Uh, I was the senator's chief of staff.
I'll get the calendar. - Thank you.
- Please don't let him touch anything else.
- Hey! - Hey.
- Hi. - Hey.
- So... - So...
- I know we said share... - Promise to call
As soon as we get a lead-- - Share alike--
- We get it--yeah, we should check with the field office.
We're all good. - Okay, great.
- Great! - Awesome.
- Cool.
- So get this.
I found dried salt on senator's wilton's car.
Salt, sand--
I think these people are drowning in sea water.
- So what? A violin from the titanic,
A chariot wheel from the red sea...
[snaps fingers] Teddy kennedy's turn signal.
- Huh.
Look, I got, um, Artie to overnight an artifact
So we would have something to counter the drowning effect.
- If we can stay ahead of this guy and find out who's next.
Now, wilton and tager were both in favor of the same policies.
- Someone doesn't like natural gas.
- You mean besides you?
- I will cut you. - Yeah.
- Did you know them?
- No. This is as close as I got.
- I want to hear what they're saying.
- We can't.
We can only go where my memory can take us.
Listen, I've got to check her gym locker still,
But it doesn't look like
The artifact's anywhere here at the school.
- It must be quite powerful to have such a lasting effect.
I want to discuss this with the regents.
- Good. I'll finish up here and meet you at the car.
- Arthur, remember, she's highly volatile.
Do not engage until we know what we're dealing with.
- Right. Announce that I'm a secret government agent,
And the next object she hurls might be me.
- Precisely.
- So do you take over wilton's seat now that he's gone?
- I will keep his office functioning
Until the governor names a replacement.
But I have no interest in being the senator from missouri,
If that's what you're asking. - Why not?
Power, money, prestige?
- No, thanks.
I have done my time in this town.
- This is the same copy of the bill that gavin tager had--
Fracking rights.
- Senator wilton was one of the cosponsors of the bill.
Gavin was helping draft the language.
- How many cosponsors are there?
- About ten other senators.
- Okay, we're gonna need all their names,
Right now, please.
Ten senators, ten possible targets.
- Yeah, all hands on deck. I'm gonna call ted.
- I'm gonna do the same with elise.
- Straight to voice mail. - Yeah, her too.
- Mykes, why would they turn their phones off
If they were just stopping by the field office?
Why would they ever turn their phones off?
- You know, earlier today, ted was really evasive
About this parking ticket.
When I asked him about it, he actually hid it away.
- Yeah, well, elise refused to go out with me,
Said she had a thing.
- Pete, I hate to even think this,
But a pair of secret service agents--
They might be the perfect people to commit these crimes.
They had access to the health club,
To the senator, but why?
- We'll ask them after we stop them
From drowning their next victim.
Do you remember where that ticket was from?
- Judiciary square.
Pete, that's their car.
- Maybe the next victim's a judge
Who's in favor of fracking.
- In and out. - Yeah.
- Hands where I can see them. - Oh--
- Hold it right there. - What the hell?
- Wait. What are you guys doing? - What's that, huh?
Instruction label from the first life raft?
- Wait. What are you talking about?
- It's a certificate of marriage.
- What? - Um...
They just got married in the--in the courthouse.
- All right, fine. Sorry.
God, you guys have been acting so weird, you know,
Giving each other all these signals and stuff.
- Yeah, you both had your cell phones off during a case.
- Oh! I get it.
So that's, uh--that's why you wouldn't go out with me.
- Yeah, that's why.
- Sorry.
- We just--we had to keep it quiet, you know?
I mean, you guys know how the agency feels
If two agents get involved in a relationship.
- I hate to break this up, guys,
But we're gonna have to explain later.
There's been another victim.
- Oh, boy.
Oh, my god.
This is-- - Claire, come on, let's go.
- No. You said we were just going for a walk.
- Honey, come on. - No!
You're sending me away. I'm not going.
- Please, honey, we just want you to talk to a doctor.
- No one's sending you away, baby.
- You're lying, both of you.
- Please, honey, just get in the car.
- No. I don't believe you.
I'm not going anywhere with you!
- L-listen, we s--we should go. - No, Artie.
- You--really, you don't know.
- I do. I need to see this.
- All right, you know what? That's it.
I've had enough. - No!
- [gasps]
- I remember coming in to find out if you were okay.
[door opens]
- Hi. You're Claudia, right?
- Something bad happened, didn't it?
- You d--you didn't see anything, did you?
- I heard it. It sounded bad.
- Huh.
- It was the music box, wasn't it?
It made claire mad.
- Frances farmer's music box.
H-how did you know?
- I just knew it was bad.
- You're right. It was.
It was very, very, very bad.
And you are a very special girl.
- Did you find the artifact, arthur?
- Frances farmer's music box causes telekinetic outbursts...
- Triggered by anger.
Uh, I've given claire a sedative.
She must come with us.
And I've asked the neighbor to watch Claudia
Until a relative arrives.
- Claudia, do--do you have a-a favorite toy?
Would you run and go get it?
She intuitively recognized the artifact.
- Rare.
We must keep our eyes on her.
- She's a very special girl.
- What happened to claire?
- The music box-- it infected her.
But it was destroyed, so we had no artifact to neutralize.
- So it stayed in her permanently.
- We tried everything.
We tried artifacts, antipsychotics--
Nothing worked.
The only solution was to put claire
In an artifact-induced coma.
I wanted you to see we had no choice.
- Is claire being like this my fault?
Artie, did I throw the music box into the fire?
You weren't in the room. It's not in your memories.
- Claudia, it doesn't matter.
- It matters to me!
I want to see things from my memories now.
- Oh, what possible difference could it make?
- [gasping] - You guys okay?
You were starting to get pretty agitated.
- What happened? Why'd we come out?
- Claudia, I think it was your mind
That was blocking the memories.
Remember, it's a very emotional day for you.
You lost--you--
- All right, so let me talk to my partner,
And I'll get back to you, okay?
Thanks.
Hey. So the guy's name is freddy olin.
He's a real-estate investor.
He bought and sold high-end listings.
Now, his assistant said he was on the phone with a buyer
When he said, and I quote...
[imitates choking]
- Any connection to the others? - No.
No, the guy's not political.
I asked his assistant where freddy stood on fracking.
She thought I meant on battlestar and giggled.
- So ted and elise aren't the only thing
We were completely wrong about today.
- Yep. We're two for two.
- How'd we miss it?
- Well, good partners are good partners.
Let's go.
- Hey. - Hey.
So, um, until abt a year ago,
This guy was a bartender. - Yeah, worked at the pool bar
At the palladium hotel.
- From frozen margaritas to a cheesy mcmansion--
That's a pretty big jump.
- God, the palladium hotel sounds familiar.
- Yeah, that's where we talked about putting up your mom.
- No, that's not it. - Yeah, it is.
- We were gonna put her up at the other one.
- I know the other one was-- - No, remember, I told you
She doesn't like the pools. - Yeah, the other place,
Then we went to the palladium-- - Guys, guys!
- Can we just go check it out?
- Yeah. - Sure.
- It was the-- - It was not the same one.
- It was the same one. - She said that she wanted--
And also, she said that she-- - No--
- No, no, no, freddy-- he just up and quit one day.
He kept talking about a big inheritance from his aunt.
Lucky bastard, right?
Well, I mean, you know, until today.
- Uh, Pete? - Yeah?
- Wow. Nice place.
[both clearing throats]
- Hey, you got a...? Diet coke, please--
Ice cold. - Yeah.
- Thank you, dolores. - Thanks.
- Hmm.
- So how did you and ted happen?
- Oh, uh, I don't know. We were partners for years.
And then one day we kind of just looked at each other and went,
"wow. We're partners."
- It just made sense.
We had a shorthand. We had each other's backs.
We're the most important person in the world to each other.
- And then I had a kind of scare.
- A scare? What kind of scare?
- Um, I thought I was pregnant.
- Oh. [laughs]
I mean, oh... - I wasn't.
- Right. - You know?
But it just makes you reevaluate your priorities.
Like, what do you want in life, you know?
- Yeah.
- So we decided to tie the knot.
- Wow. Seriously, dude, I'm--I'm really happy for you.
And, uh, I promise you, your secret is safe with us.
- Hey, thanks, man. - Yeah.
- So how about you guys?
I mean, come on, anybody can feel that vibe.
- What? - Yeah.
- Me and mykes? - Yeah!
- No. [laughs]
No. Seriously, no.
I mean, we care about each other, but...
No. No, no. - All I'm saying is,
That's what we said, and one day you just wake up,
You realize exactly what you want
Is staring you right in the face.
- Hey.
- What? - What?
Nothing.
What? - Nothing.
- All right.
- Oh, my god. - Elise?
- That's it.
That's--that's what familiar, the logo.
- Yeah, honey, 'cause this is-- - Do not start.
She does not like pools.
- The room service here is fantastic.
- Hey, guys, wait. This hotel...
It was in the news about year ago--
Some sort of political scandal.
Pete, come on.
- See? - And your mom was gonna--
Ow!
- So julia helmsworth disappeared last summer.
An anonymous tipster said that they saw her here
Partying at the hotel pool
With her boss, senator dean kelton.
- I remember that day.
The media went bananas, and they said that they thought
That he was either sleeping with her
Or there was blackmail or that maybe he killed her.
- Yeah, but it was all speculation,
Even though it ended up ruining his life.
I mean, I-it broke up his marriage.
He lost the reelection
And eventually he killed himself.
- Right. And our dead bartender,
Aka anonymous tipster,
Got his inheritance at the same time.
Whoa, mykes. Check this out.
Senator wilton, the guy they found dead in his car--
- Yeah. - He's the same guy
Who won that election and took over kelton's seat.
- So our victims
Ruined kelton to win an election,
And someone I-is taking them out.
- Yeah, but who's the next victim?
- Uh...
I'm gonna bet on nancy malloy--
The reporter that broke the story first.
- Artie, I want to talk.
- What do you want?
- Take me to the real claire.
I want to use the baby shoes with her.
Her memories can tell me what happened.
- No! Absolutely not.
It's too dangerous.
In perfect condition, the shoes can cause a psychotic break.
We have no idea how they'll interact
With a mind like claire's.
- Artie, you started this. - To finish it...
And to show you that some things, Claudia,
Just can't be fixed.
- What aren't you underst-- - Claudia...
- [clears throat]
Through no one's fault,
I have been completely deprived of my own history,
The truth about who I am and where I come from.
I'll leave it alone after this, I promise,
But I need to know what happened.
- All right, listen, w-what about this?
Would you at least agree to letting me go instead of you?
And I'll take the risk, and I'll tell you what I find.
- No, no. I need to see this for myself.
- Well, then how I'm supposed to keep you safe?
- Keeping me safe is not your job.
- Yes, it is!
It is precisely my job!
- I'll go! - What?
No! Why?
No. What? - Artie.
Artie, I was thinking that maybe,
Whether you meant it or not,
It's possible that you blocked Claudia
From seeing those memories to protect her--
Subconsciously. Subconsciously.
Now...
I would be a neutral party.
- Uh...
Uh...
- I'll take that as a yes.
[door beeping]
- What is all this?
- Joseph pilate's resistance bands--
They keep her circulation active,
And they keep her muscles from atrophying.
Oliver sacks' record player--
That's what keeps her in a perpetual coma.
- Is she conscious, like in the bronzer?
- No, no. As far as we know, she doesn't even dream.
This was the most humane thing we could do.
- What exactly are you insinuating?
- We are not--we are not insinuating anything, lady.
We're saying it outright.
Freddy olin was paid to be your anonymous source.
- Look, your life may be in danger.
Someone is getting revenge.
- Wilton, tager, freddy olin-- they're all dead.
We're trying to keep you from being next.
- Sorry. You're out of luck.
I was just reporting a story.
And if there was some vast conspiracy
Against senator kelton,
I had nothing to do with it.
Now, if you'll excuse me...
[coughs] I have to get ready.
- Mykes, she's drowning. - Pete--
- Silver from the mine's of the atacama desert.
It's the driest place on earth. - Okay.
- Okay, just breathe. - Good, good, good.
- Okay. - You're gonna be fine, okay?
- Just breathe. Okay.
Good.
- But why'd she start drowning at that moment?
I mean, no one did anything to her.
There was no artifact on her. She was just talking.
- Maybe it was something she said.
The last thing that she said
Was that she didn't know anything
About the conspiracy, right?
- Right, which I'm betting is a total lie.
- A lie.
A lie.
There was a-a letter in--in wilton's car.
He promised this woman he would look into an issue,
And then he tore it up.
Pete, maybe it's triggered by lying.
- Well, that would be a perfect artifact, right?
'cause the perp wouldn't even have to be around
When it happened. - Right.
Um, guys, can you just hold up?
Thank you. - Thanks.
- Nancy, we think that you were attacked
With sort of a, um-- a truth serum
That reacts to your nervous system when you lie.
- Yeah, so do you want to tell us the truth this time?
- Okay, freddy olin was paid to say
That he saw senator kelton at the hotel with a girl.
Were you paid too?
- Okay, good.
Now, tell us who paid you,
Because we think they're next on that list.
- Hewlett, his chief of staff.
- No one thought
That senator kelton would kill himself.
We were--we were just trying to win an election.
- So that's why you're retiring?
- [sighs] I don't have the stomach for it anymore.
- And what about julia helmsworth,
The girl who disappeared?
- No idea. Dead, for all I know.
Wilton and tager and I heard about her disappearance,
And we saw it as an opportunity.
Oh, god.
- All right.
Now, we are gonna secure this office,
And you are gonna tell me who else knew what you did
So that we can find this guy.
- Claire...
I don't know if you can hear me
Or if this is even gonna work,
But I need to see something maybe only you know.
So, if you can hear any of this,
Try to focus on the music box.
I need to see what happened to the music box.
- I'll be monitoring her vitals.
First sign of trouble,
I'm pulling you both out, understood?
- I'll make sure we get home okay.
- All right.
- Where are we? Did it work?
- I-I don't know.
This looks like some kind of yard sale.
Claire, is this the right place?
- Hey, don't electrocute yourself, okay?
I'm the one who's gonna get in trouble.
- I don't need you to protect me.
- I'd know that 'tude anywhere.
- Fixed it.
- It's the music box.
- It worked. Claire took us here.
- Claire, that thing's bad. You should put it down.
- No, it's not bad, Claudia. It's just old.
I want to see if it works.
- Claire. Claire, put it down.
I don't like it. [music box playing]
- Well, good. Then you'll leave it alone.
[chuckles]
Okay, let's go. Come on.
- Here you go, sweetheart.
- Thanks.
- What, you're still not done with that?
- Oh, no, no, no. No, you did the eye-roll thing
When I said I remembered the hotel.
- I did not do the eye-roll thing.
- You so did! I'm just sorry
That you feel threatened when I'm right.
- You want to hit me again? - Kind of.
- You know, I am so glad that we have boundaries.
Work is work, and personal's personal.
It's much better that way.
- Boundaries, yep.
We work together every day
And live next to each other in a b&b.
- You know, I still wish that you would close your bathrobe
In the morning.
- That's involuntary, Myka, okay?
All guys wake up like that.
- Is that a weapon?
- A long time ago.
It's just a souvenir now. See?
Veterans affairs gave it to me years ago.
I guess I'm just thinking about more honorable times.
- All right, well, just, uh--
Just don't turn this into a suicide watch, hmm?
- Don't worry about me.
- That hotel
Is also where we talked about putting up your mom.
- [laughs] had to have the last word.
- Don't think I didn't catch that thing between you and Pete.
- What? That was before we even knew each other.
And what about you? You were ogling girls
At the pool, like, before the ink had even dried
On our marriage certificate. - I was not!
[coughs, wheezes]
- Ted, ted.
- Hey!
[Ted gags and wheezes]
- This is special agent elise meyer.
I need an ambulance at the russell building.
Got an agent down.
[Ted gasping, wheezing] - Hewlett took off.
- What is that? - Something that will help him.
Ted, listen to me. I need you to relax.
Okay, now, did hewlett do anything--anything strange?
Did she have any strange objects?
- [hoarsely] part of sword--
Broken, just the hilt,
Military, ceremonial.
- Just the hilt.
- Okay. Breathe.
Pete? - Just the hilt, right?
There's a little statue in paris.
It's, like, world war I-ish, right?
I saw it a few years ago.
It's, uh, uh, alfred, uh...
- Alfred dreyfus? - Yes.
- Falsely accused of spying-- the dreyfus affair.
- That's right. That's right.
Well, they framed this guy, right?
And during the ceremony where they stripped him of his rank,
They snapped his sword in half.
Now, the--the statue is of him holding this broken sword.
- Right. - But I can't figure out
The connection to the salt water.
- He was imprisoned on devil's island for ten years.
The only escape was a nine-mile ocean swim.
- Okay, hello? Hey!
So you're saying that a-- that a broken old sword
Is what made ted almost drown?
- No. - Yes.
- No?
- Should I ignore the fact that that just sounds insane?
- Uh...
I mean, you're welcome to giggle a little.
But it's--it's true. - [clears throat]
- Okay, let's say we buy that.
You're also suggesting
That hewlett is killing her cohorts. Why?
- Remorse.
She said that she didn't have the stomach for it anymore.
- Well, why now? And why attack ted?
- My guess is,
Is that she needed to finish the job.
There still must be someone out there
That she needs to punish. - That girl.
- What girl?
- From the paper-- um, uh, julia...
Both: Helmsworth.
- Yeah.
Myka, maybe she's still alive.
[car horn honks]
- Honey, we're sure your teachers are exaggerating.
- They're lying. It makes no sense.
- We just want you to talk with someone.
- You're sending me away.
You don't like me anymore, so you're getting rid of me.
- It's the music box.
The music box is making claire bad.
- Everything's fine, sweetie. Just put on your sweater.
We're gonna go for a little drive.
- No, you're lying to me.
- [groaning] - Claudia, look.
Maybe she doesn't want to be here anymore.
- Just a little bit longer, claire.
- I'm not going.
- We'll stay with you the whole time.
You'll come right home. You'll see.
- No.
- Please, claire, the music box is hurting you.
- Who cares about the stupid music box?
There, now it's gone, okay?
- What the hell happened? You were all shaking.
- It wasn't my fault. It wasn't my fault.
Claire threw the music box into the fire herself.
- Oh, thank god.
- She stayed, though.
Even though she was in pain,
She stayed long enough to show me.
- Okay, thank you.
Hey, um, I just talked to reagan general.
Nancy malloy's lungs are slowly filling back up with fluid.
- Okay, you're gonna have to split the time with the necklace
Between nancy and ted and just stick by him.
- Couldn't get rid of me if he tried.
- All right, now, hewlett has to have some intel
About julia helmsworth here.
- Right. - Hey, hey, ted.
Where did she get the hilt?
- Right there, desk drawer.
- Here we go. - Okay...
Here.
- Ah, ha ha ha!
Paper trail-a-palooza. - Okay.
We have meetings with wilton and tager
And payoffs to malloy and the bartender.
- Mykes? - Yeah?
- Checks made out to julia helmsworth.
- Bingo.
- Julia, it's okay. - Someone knows, don't they?
You know, I never wanted to be a part of this.
You people forced me into it. - That's why I'm here.
Go and pack a bag.
I'm going to take you someplace safe.
Julia, you trust me, don't you?
- Freeze, hewlett! - Who are you?
- Julia, don't say another word.
- Hewlett, come on out, okay?
There's no place else to go.
- It's okay.
I'm coming out.
- Hewlett!
- I'm innocent. I haven't hurt anyone.
[gagging]
- Hewlett! [thud]
Mykes, grab it.
Liar.
Well, sorry you couldn't punish yourself.
I guess we'll see what a jury can come up with.
- So ted and elise wrote in their report
That hewlett used an unidentified toxin
On her victims.
- Yeah, well, you know,
We keep their secret, and they shall keep ours.
- [giggles] sir.
Good. - All right.
All right, so, hey, mykes, um...
Speaking of partners who, you know, work things out--
- Pete. - What?
- No. - Don't--
- Come on. - Wait, wait, wait,
Wait, just--just-- - I--
- Hear me out.
- Okay.
- Look, I know that I...
Joke around a lot.
But, um...
In regards to this whole baby thing,
I just-- I just wanted to tell you...
You know, for real, just once, so that you know...
Look, mykes, you--you are the most important person
In my life.
So, if you ever want to, you know,
If you ever want to talk seriously...
About any version of...
You know, uh...
We can do that.
Or not. I'm, uh--
I mean, I could be wrong, okay?
I-I won't mention it again. I got to go. Bye.
- I know Artie says he tried everything,
And he means well...
But you're my sister...
And there's no way I'm leaving you like this.
