"What?" "You're not talking me out of this." "Stop harassing me." "You call me again, I'm going to the police." "I said not to call!" "Wow." "Nice chatting with you too, Victoria." "Tia." "Sorry, I thought you were someone else." "Are you mad at this person 'cause they forgot to meet you for drinks like a certain friend did with me?" " Oh, my God, was that tonight?" " Yeah." "I am so sorry, Tia." "It's just, you know, it's been a crazy couple of days at work." " Is it the Barret article?" " Yeah, it's complicated." "Look, can I call you back when I get things straightened out?" " Are you gonna forget?" " No, no, this time it's gonna" " be for victory drinks." " All right, well," " I'm looking forward to it." " Ok, ciao." "Bye." "Son of a bitch." "I'm glad I was free to be your backup plan." "Don't worry, you're never second choice." "She say why she couldn't make it?" "No, I don't know, I guess she was just working too hard." "Anyway, I'm sorry, it must be boring, talking about this person you don't even know." "Are you kidding me?" "I love this whole "my friends are crazy but you're gonna learn to love 'em" phase." "All right, so, how about our backup plan..." " Yeah." " we start with some Sushi" " and then see where it goes?" " That's a great idea." "All right." "Oh, my God." "Someone call 911!" "The Listener 04x03 Early Checkout Original Air Date June 12, 2013" "Hello." "Everybody decent?" "Hey." "Hey." "I'm just bringing back your iron." "What do you think?" "Yeah, looks nice." "Put it anywhere you want." "How was last night?" " Very good." "You?" " Oh, it was great." "Sandy came over, she cooked, overcooked, cajun style, I guess." "And we fell asleep on the couch watching Mob Wives, so, yeah." " Domestic bliss." " Absolutely." "Tia didn't stay over last night?" "No, no, no, no." "We're taking it nice and slow." "Well, I figured now that you're dating someone seriously, you'd wanna make hay while the sun's shining, you know?" "You're a farmer now?" "Actually, turks make excellent farmers, yeah." "It's in my blood." "I could snap my fingers and a fig tree would pop right up." "Get out." "Want me to do it?" "I could do it right now." " Hey." "What's up?" " Toby, oh, my God, I need you to meet me at St. Luke's." "What are you doing in the hospital?" " No, it's Victoria." "She's hurt." " All right." "I'm on my way." "Tia's friend's in the hospital." "I gotta go." "Hey, Tia, what happened?" "The police called me this morning." "I guess I was down as her emergency contact." "She fell from her apartment balcony." " How'd she fall?" " They think she jumped." "Hey." "So, uh, I just spoke with the surgeon." "Victoria's broken a number of bones, has some internal bleeding, extensive bruising, and serious head trauma." "Oh, my God." "Will she be ok?" "They won't know until they finish operating." "Tia, these are the best doctors in the country." "She's in good hands." "Toby, I can't believe this." " She'd never try to kill herself." " Tia, breathe." "Breathe." "This is the story she was working on." "It was published today." " Who is this guy?" " Brad Barret." "Self-made millionaire." "Lives in the lap of luxury." "Victoria broke a story about how he exploits foreign workers." "He must have been pretty furious when he read it." " What are you saying?" " She didn't try to kill herself." "Someone tried to kill her." "I know it in my gut." "She had enemies." "Metro won't look into this." "Will you?" "So, you want the IIB to investigate a suicide based on what," " a hunch?" " It's more than a hunch." "It doesn't make sense Victoria would attempt suicide." " Did Victoria suffer from depression?" " Not that I know of, no." "Metro pulled this off her computer." "You'll probably want to take a look." "It's a suicide note written on her computer?" "Are you kidding me?" "They also found sertraline in her medicine cabinet." "It's a probable sign of depression." "Toby" "I was a paramedic." "I've seen a lot of suicide notes;" "they're always handwritten, and because she has sertraline it doesn't make her suicidal." "Toby" "Tia said Victoria had no history of suicide attempts." "Will you let me finish?" "This is not a case that would normally fall under our purview." "But if you've got an instinct about it, go for it." "However, if you're gonna open a file on it, you gotta prove to me it's more than suicide." " Excuse me." " All right." "Thank you." "Well, I, uh, take it" "Tia didn't know about Victoria's depression." "Just because Victoria was depressed doesn't mean she has to tell everybody." "What about you?" "Did you get anything?" "Well, yeah." "If you look at these binders, they're all colour-coded according to story." "But there's a section missing." "That's a bit obsessive." "And I found this purple sticky note:" ""B.B. Guilty." Brad Barret." "Purple sticky notes, no purple section." "Or maybe it was never here." "Hey, Toby, check this out." "There's scuff marks on the window sill here." "Could be from when she threw herself out." "Could be from when she was thrown out the window." "There's no definitive proof this was attempted homicide." "There's no definitive proof it wasn't." "Yeah." "Ok, we're gonna need a full workup on Victoria's apartment." "Yeah." "Ok, bye." "So, Dev checked Victoria's phone records." "Guess which hotelier called her three times yesterday." " Brad Barret?" " Let's go talk to "B.B."" "Can I help you?" "IIB." "We need to speak with Mr. Barret." "I've been staying in the wrong hotels." "There's Barret." "Wait here." "Look who he's with." "All heavy hitters." "Fortune 500, all of them." "That's Michael Tillman, the developer." "He's a big mover in the port lands." "And that is Jay Levinson, the biggest" " hedge fund manager in town." " What's he doing with Barret?" "Barret is building a hotel empire, right?" "For that he needs capital." "Levinson has more money than God." "Sergeant McCluskey," "IIB." "This is Special Consultant Logan." "Very pleased to meet you." "I must ask you to excuse my concierge..." "she's very protective of me." "No problem." "That's quite the group you got there." "Yes, we're just closing a deal on a new hotel." "When we're finished, the city will have a hotel experience the likes of which has never been seen before." "That's exciting." "We're here to ask you questions about Victoria Chan." "The reporter?" "What about her?" "She fell off of her balcony last night." "Oh, uh, is she all right?" "She's in critical condition." "Well, that's, um, that's terrible, but I'm not sure how I can help." "She wrote an article about you that was not that flattering." "I can imagine you weren't too happy." "Barret!" "You can't run away." "I have ways of dealing with people like you." "Miss Chan had an axe to grind." "She tried to humiliate me, made accusations... false accusations... that I mistreated the foreign workers on my staff." "Now, I'm not saying these are the best jobs in the world, but I assure you," " our HR practices are industry standard." " Where were you last night?" "I was working late in my office." "As always." "And he said to me, "you're right"." "I was angry with her, but if I wanted revenge, that's what I use my lawyers for." "Sorry to interrupt." "Brad, we need you back to the table." "Investors are getting a little anxious." "Can't quite hold a candle to your razzle-dazzle, brother." " We're not quite done here." " Well, I imagine it can wait." "Actually, it can't." "Ok, well, I'll, uh, keep the party going." "Let me know when you're done." "Look, I am sorry for Miss Chan, I really am, but I do have some pressing business to attend to, so, please, come by sometime, have a glass of wine." "Oh, there's the wine list and the wine list." "Tell the maître d' that Bradley sent you." "And you're a beer man, right?" "Craft beers for you." "Ok, you doing good over here?" "How is everyone?" "Unless secretaries dress like escorts, he was nowhere near an office last night." "Ok, so, the good news is he's lying." "The bad news is he has an alibi." "He could have hired someone." "I saw him arguing with Victoria." "I'll see if Dev can find anything else out from her computer." "Toby, I reread Victoria's story, and something's not right." " What do you mean?" " Well, sure, it wasn't flattering, but there was nothing of substance in it." "There was nothing in it that would have made her so upset." "You think someone tampered with it?" "And knowing Victoria, that would have made her crazy." "The person to ask about it would be her editor, Patrick Donovan." "Victoria's the last person I thought would do something like this." "Why is IIB investigating an attempted suicide?" "Unless you suspect otherwise." "It's our understanding that Victoria was upset" " with the Barret article." " What she wrote was slanderous." "Talked about Barret sexually harassing his employees, misappropriating funds." "That sounds like a powerful story, like you would sell a lot of papers." "Yes, but she drew some of her facts from off-the-record conversations." "It opened us to litigation, so I had to rewrite it." "How'd she feel about your changes?" "Wasn't happy but conflict between writer and editor is nothing new." "Happens 10 times a day around here." "You know, um, Barret wasn't the first person to have a problem with one of Victoria's exposés." "Are you referring to someone specific?" "A man named Jarod Lucic." "He owned a boutique in Yorkville." "Victoria wrote a story about him selling high-end counterfeit clothing." "Did he serve time?" "A witness changed her testimony... probably paid off." "But the bad press drove away his clientele and he went under." "He always blamed Victoria." " Did he harass Victoria?" " I'd say so." "Do you know if she told the police?" "I'm hope that's something you can ask her sometime soon." "Thank you for your time." "Sure." " Jarod Lucic?" " Hey." "IIB." "We need to ask you a few questions." "Uh, yeah, ok." "Let me put some pants on." "He was wearing pants." " I'll take this way." " I got this way." "Okay." "Hello again." "Nice pants." "So, Mr. Lucic, tell us about Victoria Chan." "That bitch that ruined my business and my marriage?" "She wrote about you selling knockoff clothing." "That's lies." "All of it." "I take it you didn't like her very much." "Yeah, she ruined my life." "I hate her." "Enough to throw her off her balcony?" "Whoa, whoa, where's this coming from?" "She was found outside her apartment building last night." " Where were you last night?" " I was having a drink at my local." " What time?" " Look, I don't remember." "It was late." "Look, I had a few." "Maybe you don't remember throwing Miss Chan off her balcony either." "Look, ask Mugsy's, all right?" "They'll tell you." " Oh, we will." " Look, I admit I wanted revenge on her." "Hell, I wanted it on that whole newspaper for what they did to me." "But I did not do this." "You know, most people are murdered by someone they're close to." "Yeah?" "So, what, you a cop now?" "I'm just saying, you might want to take a closer look at her personal life." "Oh, you mean like you did?" "We're going to need to see his camera." "So, Victoria was having an affair with her editor?" "How do you know?" "Well, luckily or not, Lucic was stalking them." "He was taking photos of them." "Gonna want to check that out." "That puts a new angle on things." "So, maybe the argument wasn't just about the article." "Maybe their romance was in trouble." "Yeah, I took a look at Victoria's work emails with Donovan." "Everything was above board." "And then" "I found her private email account." "Pretty spicy stuff." " Ok." " Donovan ended the affair about a week ago and she was not very happy about it." "Then he rewrote her story on top of it?" "Might be enough to send her over the edge." "So What?" "You're going back to suicide?" "Absolutely not." "Forensics already confirmed that the laptop was wiped clean of fingerprints." "So someone wrote the suicide note as a cover." "Well, we definitely have a case here." "Who had motive?" "Barret lied about what he was doing that night." "Maybe Victoria threatened to tell Donovan's wife about the affair and he decided to get rid of her." "Check out Lucic's alibi." "Find out where Donovan is." "Have a little man-to-man with him." "There might be more skeletons in his closet." "Mr. Donovan." "Your assistant said I'd find you here." "It's nice of you to visit Victoria." "I understand how you'd be concerned." "She's more than an associate." " She's a friend." " Yeah, well, even friends can have problems with each other, can't they?" " How could you do this to me?" " This is just business!" "This isn't about business;" "This is about you and me!" "It's about us!" "I don't understand." "Well, I should let you know that this is now an investigation into an attempted homicide." "You think someone tried to kill her?" "What does that have to do with me?" "Your affair with the victim is quite relevant." "What are you saying?" "We know you and Victoria were seeing each other." "Look, a high-pressure job, a married man, a young woman, working closely together." "Things happen." "How'd she act when you broke it off with her?" "She was upset." "Look, if I thought our relationship was relevant, I would have told you." " Were you at her apartment last night?" " I resent that line of quest..." " Just answer it." " I was at home with my wife." "Do you know anything about a purple notebook?" " You seem a little upset." " Look, I came here to see a woman I care about, and you accuse me of trying to..." "I have to get back to work." "Donovan may have been at home with his wife last night, but at some point he was in Victoria's apartment and took her binder and files." "But why?" "Was there something in them about the affair?" "Or did it have something to do with the Barret article?" "He's hiding something." "All right, well, see if you can place them at the scene." " All right." " I'll check out surveillance" " and traffic cams." " And I'll work on a warrant for his home and office." "Let's see if anything purple shows up." "Ok, so, paper from the editor's office all comes through here?" "Everything?" "Guys, we're looking for Victoria's notes." "Keep an eye out for anything in purple." "You know what, this is the binding." "I need all these." "I need all these." "You know what, just bring everything." "Everything in these bins." "Why is it always the cross-cut shredder?" "All right, kids, call home, call your folks, see if you can sleep over." "It's looking like an all-nighter." "Hey." " Hey." " How are ya?" "So, is this our new hangout?" "Well, I thought if Barret's involved, I'd immerse myself" " in his world." " But where's the TV?" " Ok, I think I might have something." " What?" "I had a look at Victoria's desk at the office." "How'd you get to sneak around her office?" "I'm her emergency contact, so they gave me access." "No kidding." "I found this under her keyboard." ""TG2BT?" What is that?" "Is that a password?" " You're not a prince fan?" "It's an acronym." " Ok." "Too good to be true." "On purple." "That's interesting." "Compliments of Mr. Barret." "Ah, it's nice to see you here for pleasure rather than business, Mr. Logan." "Uh, it is for pleasure, I take it?" "Actually, I'm here on business." "I'm Tia Tremblay." "I'm a reporter." "Victoria Chan is my friend." "Ah, I see." "And, um, how is Victoria?" "As good as one can be in a coma." "I'd love to ask you a few questions." " Well, of course." " Great!" "How about now?" "Well, I'd love to, but right now I have some investors waiting." "But please promise me you'll schedule an appointment with my personal assistant, hmm?" "It's good to see you again." " Enjoy the drinks." " Cheers." "I guess he's not in the mood to talk." "He sure lays on the charm, doesn't he?" "The decor, the atmosphere... it's too good to be true." "Thank you for that." "Now you can leave the investigating up to IIB." "This is my job." "Victoria knew something, and now she's in a coma." "I'm not buying Prince Charming's act one bit." "He's not the only one with a motive, Tia." "What are you talking about?" "Why didn't you tell me that Victoria and Donovan were" " having an affair?" " Donovan, her editor?" " Yeah." " 'Cause I had no idea." "I thought you knew." "I guess I didn't know her as well as I thought." "There ya go." "Come on, will!" "There ya go!" "There ya go!" "What are you doing here?" "Ok." "Thank you." "So, a jogger found the body this morning." "Donovan's wallet was found in the ravine..." "cash and credit cards were missing." "He lives like two blocks from here, so Metro figures he was out walking his dog and then got mugged." "Or somebody wanted it to look that way." "There's no sign of a struggle." "And if he gave up his valuables, why shoot him?" "He was killed for more than his wallet." "Something's up here." "Two lovers, one thrown off her balcony, the other one shot in the chest." " Let's talk to his wife." " Yeah." "I woke up this morning, and there was this scratching sound." "It was our dog." "He wanted in." "And you didn't notice that your husband was gone all night?" "Patrick often worked all night in his study, or he... he stayed at..." "at the office." "He didn't come home often?" "Not as often as I would have liked." "You know your husband was having an affair with Victoria Chan?" "Yeah, I, um..." "I found out recently." "This man came to our door." "Jarod Lucic." "He didn't tell me his name;" "He just gave me some photographs." "I confronted Patrick when he came home." "It was... it was horrible." "Ok, you know how..." "how this looks to us, right?" "Your husband shot, Victoria falling off of her balcony..." "Patrick told me everything." "I mean, he begged my forgiveness." "That's a really beautiful ring." "Looks new." "How many carats is that?" "Three carats." "Patrick went overboard." "It was an apology and a promise." "What the hell?" "How's your arts-and-crafts project coming?" "Well, we've got most of the notebook isolated." "Now we're just working on putting together sentence fragments, and once that's finished, the real fun starts." "My cursive construction software..." "Will tell us exactly what was in Victoria's notes." "Guys, come on, pick up the pace." "Let's get it together." "So, is our grieving widow a suspect?" "Well, I think her grief is genuine." " She wanted to work it out." " So did he." "He got her a three-carat apology ring." "I spoke to the woman at the jewellery store." "It set him back $40,000." " Forty grand?" " Yeah." "Editors don't make that kind of money." "Did we check his financials?" "Yeah." "Nothing was taken from his bank accounts." "It was paid for in cold, hard cash." "Forty K in cash?" "Ok, so, look, Barret knows that this negative article is gonna be published, right?" "What can he do to stop it?" "You're suggesting that he paid Donovan 40k" " to rewrite it." " But for that kind of money, you'd think the article would be a little bit more flattering." "Maybe Victoria had something even more incriminating on Barret." " Why, do you have something?" " Tia found a note in Victoria's office that said Barret was too good to be true." "Which is maybe why Donovan took Victoria's research." "What about our friend Mr. Lucic?" "Well, we know that he showed up at Donovan's house and showed his wife those photos." "What about his alibi for the night that Victoria was pushed?" "He arrived at the pub a little after 11." "Well, that would give him plenty of time to show up at her apartment." "Bartender said he came in ranting all the time about how Victoria and her editor ruined his life." "Maybe he tried to ruin theirs." "I'll have Metro pick him up again." "So I showed the wife a couple of pictures." "Is that a crime?" " No, but stalking is." " You hated Patrick, didn't you?" "Yeah, I hated him." "That bastard printed slander, which I beat in court." "The way we hear it, the victims were paid off." "You wanted to hurt Donovan and Victoria." "Yeah, I did." "And the beauty of them having the bed sweats for each other meant I could hurt them both at the same time." "You see, the thing about revenge, Jarod, is it's never enough." "But ruining his marriage and making him break it off with Victoria, that wasn't enough for you, was it?" "So you pushed Victoria off her balcony." "That's crazy, I didn't murder anyone." "And then you shot Donovan in the chest to finish it off." "Ok, whoa." "Yeah, I wanted to hurt them, but I didn't want to go to jail." "All right, they ruined my life once already;" "I wasn't gonna let them do it again." "He's twisted, but he's not a murderer." "All right, something else came up." "Forensics called." "Patrick Donovan was killed with a .22-caliber bullet." "Now, according to the gun registry, Barret owns a .22." " Ok, do we have a warrant?" " Ask and you shall receive." "Get me something I can use." "Hey." "Toby, it's me." "I'm at the hotel." "Listen," "I've been talking to Barret's employees." "They're all shutting me down." "Well, that's not surprising." "Their boss is a suspect in Victoria's fall." "Look, Tia, you gotta stay away from Barret." "Stay away?" "Are you kidding me?" "We're handling the investigation." "It would be a lot safer if you leave it to us." "Toby, I'm a reporter." "This is what I do." "Yeah, you're also too personally involved." "I'm getting answers." "Apparently something's wrong with Barret's finances." "Investors are starting to walk away." "I think that might be what Victoria's story was really about." "Now, listen, you don't want to share information about the case," "I respect that, but I won't stop chasing this story." "Tia's all over Barret." "There's something wrong with his finances." "Well, let's find out for ourselves." "That doesn't sound like a business meeting." " You got the password?" " Warrant." "Right here." "Thank you." " Ok." " Shareholder's meeting?" "Oh... oh!" "♪ Ah yeah ♪" "I want to speak with my lawyer." " That's probably a good idea." " ♪ ah yeah ♪" "How's she doing?" "The doctors seem hopeful." "How are you?" "I just wish there was more I could do." "I wish I could help take down whoever did this to her." "We arrested Brad Barret last night." " You did?" " There's some evidence that makes it look like he might be involved." "We haven't interrogated him yet, but he might be the kind of guy we can't keep our hands on for too long." "Listen, anything you need, let me know, I'll be happy to help." "Tia, you're doing too much already." " What's that supposed to mean?" " You should back off." "I can't believe I'm hearing this." "This guy might be responsible for what happened to Victoria and Patrick." "This is very dangerous." "This is my job," "Ok?" "I've done it for 10 years." "I can look after myself." "I don't want you getting hurt for some good scoop." "This isn't about a scoop!" "This is about a friend that I respect and that I care about who nearly died for this story." "So I owe it to her to look into this." "Not if you get killed." "Please." "Tia, back off." "Tia..." "I..." "I know what I'm doing." "That's a very interesting business meeting that you were having, Mr. Barret." "You had no legal right to come into that room, so without a warrant..." "you have nothing." "Ah." "Well, actually, we did have a warrant." "And as we speak, forensics is going over a .22-caliber handgun that we found in your room." "Now, that was the same caliber" " that was used to kill Donovan." " Patrick Donovan?" "Do you think I'd be so stupid as to keep a murder weapon with me?" "Look, I keep telling you, I had nothing to do with what happened to him or that reporter." "You paid Donovan to rewrite Victoria's article." " I did no such thing." " It had to be published;" "otherwise Victoria would have made a stink." "You just made sure that it made as little damage as possible." "That is crazy." "I have nothing to hide." "Ah." "So, Victoria wasn't gonna write about your cocaine and hooker parties?" "Are these parties the reason you're beginning" " to lose investors?" " Damn it, Martin!" "Some investors have unreasonable expectations." "They expect double digits or they move on." "You can't please everyone." "It's all part of the business." "I need a word." "Forensics came back." "Barret's gun is not the murder weapon." "Ok." "I can see why Victoria called him "Too good to be true"." "So, what, you think she was gonna write about the drugs and prostitutes?" " I do." " Well, with or without the gun, we still have enough to hold him until we find out more." "And I got a little read." "I think I got the first name of an investor." "Martin." "Last name Reynolds." "Self-made millionaire who made his fortune" " in the '90s real estate boom." " Must have a nose for investment." "You think he smelt something bad and pulled out of Barret's operation?" "Maybe he's the missing piece of the puzzle." "Do you think he's a suspect?" "He's definitely a person of interest." " I'd say a little more than that." " Ah." "The arts-and-crafts project." "Now, from what I've gathered from Victoria's research, Reynolds was a major investor in Barret's empire." "It must have really hurt" " when he pulled out his capital." " Let's track him down." "Mr. Reynolds." "IIB." "We'd like to speak with you about Brad Barret." "I really don't have time for this." "I have a meeting in a few minutes." "We'll keep it brief." "Please, let's stay warm." "Why did you leave Barret properties?" "I had some... difference with one of the principals." " Barret?" " I can't say." "This is a house of cards, Levinson!" "You said your piece." "Now go." "Levinson." "I won't confirm that it was Levinson, but I won't deny it either." "What was the issue between you and Jay Levinson?" "I'm sorry." "I've already said too much." "If you're withholding information relevant to this investigation, we can charge you with obstruction." "Levinson manages a hedge fund holding over $500 million." "He bought a big stake in Barret properties and paid for it in units of his fund." "If his fund tanks, then Barret properties tumbles like a house of cards." " But his fund didn't tank." " No, quite the opposite." "These figures just don't add up." "No fund can perform that well." "In my experience, if something is too good to be true, it probably is." "What was in Barret who was too good to be true was Levinson." "Did you tell Victoria Chan about Levinson's investment scheme?" "I may have leaked a file or two before I signed my NDA." "She was convinced that Barret was guilty of some financial impropriety, but he was simply oblivious." "I said just as much to another journalist" " just this morning." " Who's the other journalist?" "Tia... something." "Tia Tremblay." "What did you tell her, exactly?" "She said she was working her way down a list of investors, looking for dirt on Barret." "She asked me about Levinson, and I said he was worth talking to." "I think he was next on her list." "Dev, we need a location for Tia." "Her cell's off, or maybe she's just not taking my phone calls right now." "Ok." "I'll triangulate her phone and get her 20 to you." " As quick as you can, Dev." " Hey, guys, I finished my little project, and you're never gonna guess who Victoria's expose was about." " We know." "Jay Levinson." " Way to steal my thunder," "Michelle." "Thank you." "But here's something you may not know." "Victoria drilled down deeper under Reynolds' suspicions" "Now, some of the companies that are investments aren't even real companies." "And a high-visibility investor like Barret's, it makes the whole thing look real." "Ok, so Levinson would have been ruined." "He was the one who bribed Donovan to change the story." "Yeah, but that wasn't enough, so he had to tie up loose ends, so first goes Victoria, and then Donovan." "Which explains why I didn't read guilt off Barret... he didn't do it." "We're gonna need Levinson's address." "He's staying at a suite at Barret's hotel." "She could be with Levinson right now." " We don't know that, Toby." " She has no idea he's the killer." "Hi, I'm Tia Tremblay." "I'm a friend and colleague of Victoria Chan." "I'm following up on some research she did for a recent article about Brad Barret." "May I come in?" "Of course." "Always eager to meet with the press." "All right." "Come on, Tia, pick up." "Guys, I triangulated Tia's phone." "Bad news." "She's inside the hotel." "Get me hotel security, please." "I'm going to get them to search the hotel, see if they can find her." "Ok." "Come on." "Come on." "You caught me in the middle of a late lunch." " Some wine?" " No, thank you." "Ok, now, I haven't had the pleasure of meeting Miss Chan, but I understand" " she was quite the journalist." " Is." "She's" " still alive." " Forgive me." "Poor choice of words." "I did read her piece on Barret, though." "more bark than bite." "You know, I agree." "I think there was more to that story." "I think that Victoria was on to something much bigger." "Really?" "I'd be fascinated to hear what grand mystery Victoria was on to." "There are some rumors that some of the investors are dissatisfied." "Dissatisfied with what, exactly?" "Well, I'm supposed to be asking the questions, Mr. Levinson." "Is it true that there's been some dissension among Barret's investors?" "You've been talking to Reynolds." "I can't divulge my sources." "Of course not." "But I interrupted you." "You were about to share with me what Victoria had uncovered." "You need to come with us." "Take us to Levinson." "Still nothing from Tia." "You seem reluctant to share with me." " You seem anxious to know." " Anxious?" "Not anxious." "Just curious." "I have an emergency." "Really?" "I haven't answered your questions." "You did." "And I have to go." "I need to go." " Now." " I'm still curious, though." "I'd really love to know what was so terribly important to Victoria that she'd throw herself from a fourth-floor window." "How did you know it was the fourth floor?" "I don't remember that being reported anywhere." "I suppose I found out some other way." "Thank you for speaking to me, Mr. Levinson." "I have to go now." "So soon?" "I think that you and I should just talk a little more." "Ah!" "No." "Thank you." "It's Tia." " Drop the knife!" " Can't do that." "Put down the knife down or I put you down." "I've seen my partner drop people from twice as far away." "Yeah, well, I'm calling her bluff." "You don't want more blood on your hands, Levinson." "What is this?" "The part where you talk me off the ledge?" "We know about Victoria." " You can't buy me off like Patrick." " Oh, yeah?" "You don't know anything." "We know about Patrick Donovan too." "You were waiting for him in High Park." "You shot him." "And the gun..." "We found the gun in a garbage at the entrance to the park." "It's over." "Let her go at the count of three or my partner is gonna drop you." "One..." "Two..." "Ugh!" "Oof!" "Turn around." "On your stomach." "Now." "You all right?" "He fully tackled the guy." "Ok, so what you're saying is you brought a him to a knife fight?" "No, no, no, Tia was the star of the show." "Really, she..." "So, you brought a Tia to a knife fight?" "The gun was recovered from the garbage can." "Thank you, Toby, as you predicted." "It was a black-market piece;" "the serial numbers were ground off, but a partial print on a chambered bullet matches Levinson's." "What's going on with Barret?" "Well, Levinson's accounts have been frozen, his assets have been seized." "As he falls, so goes the whole house of cards." "Barret's empire will tumble." " Couldn't happen to a nicer fellow." " A shame." "And, uh, guys." "Good job." "You keeping vigil?" "Relief is on the way." "Her parents have just landed from Shanghai." " How is she?" " Well, the surgeon says, with intensive therapy, she should recover." " That's great." " Yeah." "It'll be a long road, but if anyone can do it, she can." "She's a fighter." "She heard me." " You feel better?" " Yeah." "Much better, thank you." "Good." "Um, so, Toby, this is kinda weird, but, um, you said, when you were talking Levinson down, you said something about the gun." "Yeah." "What's weird about that?" "You knew it was in the garbage." "Yeah, I know the area." "It just seemed like the most logical place he'd have dumped the gun." " So you're saying you bluffed?" " I bluffed." " That accurately?" " I'm that good." "So, what do you really do for the IIB?" "Just bluff?" "Or do you really read faces?" "Can you tell me what I'm thinking right now?" "You want a coffee..." "Black, two sugars." "Not even close." "I was thinking that my boyfriend is gonna take me out for a really nice dinner tonight." " See?" "I'm not that talented." " Oh, no." "Oh." "Ok." "Hey."
