셜록, 또 시작됐어요

 

Hey.

 

내 말 들려요?

 

헤드폰 빼도 돼요

 

옆집 사람들 또 시작했어요

 

또? 그만 둔 줄도 몰랐는데

 

-3일 연속이잖아요
-알아요

 

당신의 수면 시간이
너무 많은 것도 알아요

 

내 충고를 원한다면,
방해의 혜택을

 

받아들여서 잠을 포기하고

 

당신의 능력을 시험하는
활동을 찾아요

 

예를 들면, 정교한
억제구에서 탈출이라든지

 

저게 방해가 안되면 소음차단
헤드폰을 쓰는 이유가 뭔데요?

 

소음에 영향을 받지
않는다고는 안했어요

 

자극제로 이용하라고 말했지

 

리듬에 집착하는 이웃은
곧 그만둘 거예요

 

특정 리프를 익히려고 노력중이지만

 

마지막 시도에서 성공했다고 생각해요

 

거봐요

 

무사히 밤의 의식을 치를 수 있겠네요

 

저기

 

아니 됐어

 

자연은 우리에게 많은 기적을 내려요

 

하지만 나에게는
이게 가장 큰 축복이죠

 

실로시빈

 

버섯에서 얻어지는 천연유래성분으로

 

우리 마음을 열고

 

영혼의 영역에 도달할 수 있고

 

영원을 맛보게 허락해줘요

 

불행히도, 버섯 자체의 맛은 지독해요

 

하지만 맛이나

 

오심, 불편감을 느끼는 것도

 

또 하나의 경험이죠

 

매 단계마다 제가 함께 있을 겁니다

 

여행을 위하여

 

효과가 나타나려면
보통 30분 정도 걸려요

 

아마 처음 알게되는...

 

저건 체험의 일부가 아닙니다

 

이웃에 사는 멍청이죠

 

내가 해결할게요

 

채드, 비디오게임하는 동안

 

헤드폰을 사용해줄래요?

 

체험을 주최하고 있어서요

 

그러죠

 

나한테도 마법의 차를 가져다준다면

 

더이상 방해하지 않으면

 

아침에 가져다줄게요

 

내가 말했듯이, 한두번 토하지 않고는

 

우주가 쉽게 환희를 제공하지 않아요

 

안돼

 

911입니다. 무슨 일이십니까?

 

여보세요? 누구 없어요?

마약 파티가 잘못된 모양이야

 

조셉 발렌타인,
QBU의 식물학 교수지

 

이웃 말로는 일년에
2번정도 버섯 파티를 연대

 

파티라

 

이번엔 버섯을 잘못 골라서

 

본인과 고객이 모두 독살됐어

 

틀려요

 

강력반 자문탐정이래

 

그냥 나타났어

 

스캐너로 들었다고 하면서

 

저기 앉아있으라고 했어?

 

아니, 그냥 자기가 앉던데

 

증거를 훼손하고 싶지 않아요

 

눈을 돌리는 것도
피해야겠다 싶었고요

 

발렌타인 교수 부분에서
실수를 했어요

 

교수는 환각 버섯 전문가예요

 

여러권의 훌륭한 저서를 남겼죠

 

멍청한 신비주의만 빼면

 

뛰어난 진균학자로
환각버섯과 독버섯을

 

혼동하는 실수를
할 리가 없어요

 

토미 그렉슨이 5분만 시간을 주라는군

 

2분 줄게요

 

내 생각대로

 

교수가 차에 넣은 버섯은

 

psilocybe azurescens로
'블루 엔젤'로 알려져있어요

 

강하지만 상대적으로 드문 종으로

 

콜롬비아 강 삼각주에서 자생해요

 

독버섯은 아니에요

 

보기만 해도 말할 수 있어요?

 

버섯 감별은 좋은 탐정이

 

가져야할 주요 기술 중 하나죠

 

이 사람들 급사했어요

 

다양한 악취가 나오지 않아요

 

도움을 요청하려고 비틀거리거나

 

문을 긁은 사람도 없어요

 

쓰러져서 바로 죽었어요

 

고농도의 독에 노출되었다는 뜻이죠

 

살해됐네요

 

누군가 차에 독을 탔어요

 

그보다는 교수의 버섯에 독을 넣었겠죠

 

추측해야한다면,
amanita phalloides(알광대버섯)

 

일명 '죽음의 모자'
버섯 추출물이라고 봐요

 

주요 타겟은 교수였고,
학생들은 이차 피해자였을 겁니다

 

다행히 동기와 용의자를 이미 알고 있으니

 

두 사람을 만나서 즐거웠어요

 

실례해요

 

제가 깨웠나요?

 

지쳐보이네요. 아침 5시까지
베이스 연주하느라 힘들겠죠

 

옆집 사람이군요

 

-맞아요
-죄송해요

 

집주인이 벽이 두꺼우니까

 

맘대로 시끄럽게 해도
괜찮다고 했거든요

 

네, 근데 다 들려요

 

3주전에 벌인 파티

 

어린애들이 6시간동안
시끄럽게 떠들어댔잖아요

 

그건 우리가 아닌데

 

다 들었어요

 

아뇨. 다른 사람이 파티를 했어요

 

아이가 있는 다른 사람이요

 

우린 여기 5일동안 있었어요

 

5일이요?

 

네, 에이전트랑 음악
제작자 만나러 왔거든요

 

주말에 갈거예요

 

그럼 새로 이사온 사람들이 아니었어요?

 

네

 

손님이에요?

 

여기가 AwayKay인 건 알죠?

 

뭔지 몰라요

 

민박같은 건데

 

우리 드러머가 인터넷에서 찾았어요

 

AwayKay.com.

 

"파티 피플을 위한 파티장"

 

시끄럽게 해서 미안해요

 

하지만 앞으로도
계속 겪을 것 같네요

 

싸움 혹은 도주 반응은

 

시상하부에서 시작해서
2가지 방법으로

 

부신을 활성화시킵니다

 

화학적으로는 뇌하수체를 통해

 

신경 자극은 척수를 따라갑니다

 

이는 부신을 자극하여
아드레날린을 분비하고

 

최고조에 이르게 됩니다

 

다음주에 계속합시다

 

5장 꼭 읽어와요

 

수고했어요

 

무슨 일로 오셨습니까?

 

코르티졸은요?

 

부신은 두 개의 호르몬을 분비해요

 

에프네프린, 즉 아드레날린, 그리고 코르티졸

 

두 호르몬 모두 싸움 혹은 회피
반응에 중추적 역할을 해요

 

다음 수업에 대한 예고였어요

 

아드레날린이 코르티졸보다 더 섹시하죠

 

승인 검토 때문에 오셨나요?

 

다음 주에 올 줄 알았어요

 

저희는 NYPD입니다

 

조셉 발렌타인 살인사건에 대해

 

몇가지 질문이 있어서 왔어요

 

조의 연구로 인해 곤란해질
줄 알고 있었어요

 

하지만 살인이라니

 

예비검사에서

 

발렌타인 교수가 사용한 버섯에

 

다른 독버섯이 섞여있었어요

 

두 분이 3권의 책을 저술했더군요

 

2권은 실로시빈의 생화학
효과에 대한 탐구이고

 

1권은 실로시빈 화학 교재였어요

 

그리고 사이가 틀어졌죠

 

그렇게 말할 정도는 아니었어요

 

2년 전, 당신이 발간중인
"정신생물학 학술지"에서

 

조의 논문을 거절했어요

 

당신은 환각버섯에 대해

 

"위험한 비과학"이라고 평했죠

 

핵심을 제거했어요. 공동 저자로

 

책을 출판했을 때와는 전혀
반대의 입장으로 돌아섰어요

 

그 책들은 더이상 볼 수 없어요

 

시장에서 철수됐어요

 

조의 요청때문이었겠죠

 

인세로 수천달러는
벌 수 있었을텐데요, 그쵸?

 

저기

 

조와 전 각자의 길을
가기로 했다는 건 맞아요

 

하지만 그건 내 결정이었어요

 

조가 먼저 같이 책을 쓰자고 했어요

 

뇌 화학 전문가를 원했어요

 

계약에는 내가 직접 버섯을
먹는 게 포함되어 있었어요

 

내가 직접 경험하기를 원했어요

 

하지만?

 

난 실로시빈이나 다른 약을
하고 싶지 않았어요

 

약을 했을 때는 내가 어리석었어요

 

완전히 그만두고 싶었어요

 

출판 중단도 내 생각이었어요

 

조의 이론 지지에 내 이름이
기재되지 않길 바랐어요

 

어떻게 받아들였나요?

 

괜찮았어요

 

과학 언론에 비난해도 신경쓰지 않았어요

 

기존 이론에 반역자로 이미지가 딱이었죠

 

그래서 서로 감정이 상하지는 않았다?

 

조와 나는 같은 학부에 있어요

 

항상 오고가며 마주쳤어요

 

물어봐요. 다툼이 있었는지

 

우린 평화롭게 지냈어요

 

내가 뭘 놓쳤어요?

 

하퍼 교수는,

 

발렌타인 교수를 살해할
동기가 전혀 없어보여요

 

오, 당신이 틀렸네요

 

마커스가 하퍼교수의 말을 확인할 동안

 

발렌타인이 죽길 원했을 다른 사람에
대한 증거를 찾고 있었고

 

실패시, 버섯을 얻은 곳을 찾으려고요

 

합류할 거예요?

 

물론, 충분히 쉬었다면요

 

자고 있었던 게 아니라,
새 이웃을 만나고 왔어요

 

조용히 하라고 협박했어요?

 

했어요

 

근데 상관없는게,
단기 임대자였어요

 

일요일에 다른 사람들이 온대요

 

AwayKay라는 홈페이지에서 광고중이었어요

 

잘나가는 동네에서 파티장을 찾는
사람들을 모아주는 곳이죠

 

우리 집 근처에만 5-6곳이 있어요

 

고급 주택화의 또다른 불쾌함이군요

 

우리 지역 주민들의
활동을 격려해야겠어요

 

문제가 있는 건 우리만은 아니겠죠

 

동네 웹사이트를 확인해보니

 

AwayKays들에 대한
소음 불만으로 가득했어요

 

근처 호텔들도 장사가 안되고

 

옆집 주인을 찾아가서

 

불편하다는 얘길 해야겠어요

 

소파 안에 금고가 있어요?

 

네, 다행히 정교한 잠금 기술보다는

 

숨기려고 했던 것 같아요

 

무척 간단할걸요

 

됐다

 

발렌타인 교수의 은닉품

 

말린 버섯 3가지

 

이건 저품질의 마법의 버섯이군요

 

이건 불행하게 끝났던 의식에서
사용하지 않았어요

 

하지만 이건 블루엔젤이에요

 

교수의 차에서 발견했던 것과
똑같은 품종이에요

 

"교수님의 견해 기대하고 있어요,
Danke. C.K”.

 

발렌타인이 이끼류에 대해

 

입증하려던 논문들을 봤어요

 

샬롯 코니그(Charlotte Konig)라는
이름으로 쓰인 글이 있었어요

 

C.K.

 

여기서 기다려주시면
미터기 계속 돌려도 돼요

 

고마워요

 

대학교 기록에 따르면

 

샬롯 코니그는 독일 태생 생화학자로

 

발렌타인의 예전 조교였어요

 

학생시절의 사진이 있어요

 

문신을 하고 다녔죠

 

불이 켜져 있고, 음악소리도 들려요

 

마커스가 올 때까지 기다려야해요

 

샬롯이 발렌타인에게 버섯을 줬잖아요

 

살인범일 수도 있어요

 

그렇다고 해도 독살범이죠

 

먹거나 마시지 않으면
우린 무사해요

 

뭐해요?

 

버섯 냄새가 나요

 

훌륭해요, 하지만

 

택시기사 앞에서
무단침입을 하려고요?

 

버섯 냄새가 나요

 

버섯 냄새...

 

♪ And... crazy ♪

 

♪ And you think I'm putting on
some kind of act ♪

 

♪ But this is
me, me, me, me, me ♪

 

♪ And you know what's sick? ♪

 

♪ I kinda like it ♪

 

♪ That nobody I know... ♪

 

버섯 냄새가 난다고 했잖아요

 

독성검사 결과 "죽음의 모자"
중독으로 사망했어요

 

누가 버섯을 뿌려놨더군요

 

이게 샬롯 몸에서 자랐다고?

 

저희 생각에는, 죽어가다가

 

다 자란 버섯이 든 병을
쓰러뜨린 것 같아요

 

포자를 퍼뜨렸고, 그 포자가
샬롯의 몸에 자리잡은거죠

 

지금은 조셉 발렌타인이 아니라

 

샬롯이 독살범이 의도한
목표였다고 생각해요

 

이 사진들로 보면

 

판매용으로 보기에는 수량이 너무 적어요

 

자기 자신과 친구들의
선물용으로 재배했을 겁니다

 

샬롯이 발렌타인에게

 

버섯을 나눠줄 걸 알지는
못했던 것 같아요

 

또한, 실로시빈 잔여물이

 

차 주전자와 컵에 남아있는 걸로 봐선

 

꾸준히 먹었던 것으로 보여요

 

직접 버섯을 재배해서

 

꾸준히 먹는 걸 알 정도로

 

샬롯과 친한 사람을 찾아야해요

 

아니면 샬롯에 대해 엄청 연구했겠죠

 

그렇긴해도 샬롯의 연구는

 

간단한 노력이 아니었을 겁니다

 

식물학과 생화학에 대해 잘 알았지만

 

-전자공학은 별로 즐기지 않았어요
-맞아요

 

SNS도 하지 않고
심지어 휴대폰도 없어요

 

우리가 아는 건, 독일 태생으로

 

대학교 진학으로 미국으로 건너와
발렌타인 교수 밑에서 공부하고

 

학위를 딸때까지 저연봉, 단기직
연구실 일만 이어서 했어요

 

개인사에 대한 또다른 단서는 문신이죠

 

문신이 아주 많아요

 

어깨에는 새로 만든 그리핀 문신이 있고

 

목에는 옴, 팔에는 꽃이 달린
덩굴 문신이 있어요

 

등에 있는 건?

 

부검 보고서에 사진이 있을 거예요

 

“Rache.” 뭐지?
레이첼의 줄임말인가?

 

그럴 수도 있어요

 

하지만 샬롯은 원래 독일어를 써요

 

독일어에서 “rache”는
'복수'를 뜻해요

 

밴드 이름일 수도 있고

 

말 그대로 코니그양이 복수를 했을 수도 있죠

 

복수를 했다면, 그 대상자가

 

샬롯을 죽였을지도 궁금하겠지

 

실은, 벌써 좋은 생각이 있어요

 

샬롯 코니그가 당신 회사를
상대로 1억달러 소송 중이었죠?

 

해조류를 생물연료로 바꾸는 기술을
우리가 훔쳤다고 주장했어요

 

그랬나요?

 

당연히 아닙니다

 

'제라켐'에서 같은 시기에 같은 기술을

 

개발했어요. 우연의 일치입니다

 

코니그 의견은 아니던데요

 

소송에서 제라켐보다 6개월 전에

 

발표했다고 주장했어요

 

회사가 최고의 평판을 가진 건 아니죠

 

제라켐은 기업 스파이행위와

 

공무원 뇌물 혐의도 받고 있다고 들었어요

 

샬롯 코니그를 장애물로 봤다면
제거해야한다는 생각도

 

큰 일은 아니었을 겁니다

 

이건 샬롯 코니그의
변호사들의 철회된 발언입니다

 

우린 샬롯을 살해할 이유가 없어요

 

우린 재판에서 이기고 있었어요

 

샬롯이 당신이나 제라켐의 다른 사람을

 

협박하는 일을 직접 했나요?

 

그런 기록은 없어요

 

하지만 시도했더라도

 

우리가 죽일 리는 없어요

 

가처분 명령을 받았어요

 

질문이 있는데, 해도 될까요

 

샬롯과 다른 사람들이 모두
'죽음의 모자'로 독살됐나요?

 

독성검사에서 증명됐어요

 

부사장이 되기 전에
저도 생화학자로 일했어요

 

자연발생 죽음의 모자 독으로는

 

사람들이 그렇게 빨리 죽지
않는다고 알고 있어요

 

그 점에선, 동의합니다

 

현재 우리의 가설은 범인이

 

대량의 버섯에서 독소를 추출하여

 

치사량으로 농축했다는 겁니다

 

그 방법이 가능하지만
느리고 비효율적이죠

 

맨 처음부터 생화학 작실에서

 

독을 합성하는 방법이 있을텐데요

 

도움이 된다면,
근처에 그런 작업이 가능한

 

시설 목록을 드릴 수도 있어요

 

어서오세요

 

필요하신 게 있으면 얘기하세요

 

실은, AwayKay에 올려놓은
건물에 대해 얘기하려고 왔어요

 

기억나요

 

셜록의 여자친구죠

 

내가 이사 나오기 1년 전부터 동거했죠

 

여자친구는 아니에요

 

셜록과 아는 사이인지 몰랐어요

 

아니오

 

셜록이 이사오던 날 직접 내 소개를 했지

 

이름을 알고, 이메일을 받았어

 

그게 전부요

 

AwayKay에 집을 올려놓을 생각인가요?

 

쉬워요

 

내가 다 말해줄 수 있어요

 

소음때문에 힘들어요

 

들어오는 사람들이 항상

 

재밌어요?

 

미안해요

 

참 재밌군요

 

두 사람이 소음으로 불평하다니

 

어째서요?

 

왜냐면

 

내 집에서 살지 못하는 이유가 당신들이거든

 

세를 줘도 당신들 때문에

 

6개월이상을 버티지 못했어요

 

내 집을 AwayKay에 올려서 힘들다고?

 

참 안됐군요

 

당신들이 자초한 일이지

 

무슨 말인지 모르겠어요

 

당신들 때문에 이사를 갔지

 

더이상 견디지 못하겠더군

 

이상한 소음, 수상한 냄새,

 

폭발, 옥상에는 망할 놈의 벌까지

 

오, 저런,

 

처음 듣는 얘기인 척 하지 말아요

 

처음 들어요

 

AwayKay에 집을 올리는 게 문제가 아니라

 

입주민을 끌기 위한 방법이죠

 

광고 읽었어요
"파티 환영, 소음 문제 없음"

 

융자금 갚는 게 문제가 아니죠

 

모든 작용에는 같은 크기의 반작용이 있지

 

물리학이라오

 

말도 안돼요

 

오래 전부터 얘기를 했으면
고쳤을 수도 있어요

 

셜록에게 이메일을
수십번을 보냈어요

 

배려해달라고 애원하기까지 했지

 

하지만 더 심해지기만 했어요

 

그리고 그 수탉들이,
최후의 결정타였어요

 

수탉은 잊고 있었어요

 

그래, 나도 잊었어요

 

결국엔

 

이사 나오면서

 

보내셨던 이메일,
저한테 보여주실 수 있어요?

 

죽음의 모자 독을 합성할 수는 있지만

 

샬롯을 죽길 원하는 사람은
떠오르지 않아요

 

아는 사이였나요?

 

여기서 일했었어요

 

1년 전까지

 

다정하고, 생각하시는 것보다는
훨씬 조용한 편이죠

 

문신 때문에요

 

타인과 문제를 일으킨 적 있나요?

 

근무 일정이나 성희롱이나

 

어느 것이든지요

 

아뇨, 제가 알기론 없어요

 

고마워요, 무척 도움이 됐어요

 

저기요

 

난 경찰과 함께 일합니다

 

얘기를 나눴으면 해서요

 

무슨 일이죠?

 

샬롯 코니그에 대해서요

 

당신과의 동침이 살인에
영향을 미쳤는지 여부에 대해서요

 

이 곳 사람들은 아무도
몰랐는데, 어떻게...?

 

팔에 있는 문신이요

 

샬롯의 문신과 거의 같았어요

 

사실, 옆으로 대면

 

덩쿨이 서로 연결됐죠?

 

그러니 둘이 연인이었죠
의심의 여지 없이

 

문제는...

 

우린 거의 1년을 사귀었어요

 

절대 해치지 않아요

 

하지만 더이상 사귀는 사이가 아니죠

 

처음 사귀기 시작했을 때
샬롯은 재밌었어요

 

버섯을 먹고 환각제를 즐겼어요

 

화학자, 우리는 최고의
물건을 가졌어요

 

직접 만들었으니까요

 

샬롯은 논스톱 파티였었죠

 

중단할때까지는?

 

1년전쯤,

 

샬롯의 생체시계가 시끄럽게
울리기 시작했어요

 

아이를 갖고 결혼을 하는 것에
대해 말하기 시작했어요

 

당신은 흥미가 없었던 것들이죠?

 

헤어질 때, 샬롯이 어떻게 받아들였죠?

 

처음에는 힘들어했는데

 

극복했어요, 듣기로는
다른 남자를 만나서

 

결혼하기로 했대요

 

샬롯은 샬롯이 원하는대로
나는 내가 원하는대로

 

윈-윈이죠

 

약혼자의 이름을 알아요?

 

그날 뭘 먹은 상태라서
헷갈리는데

 

샬롯의 “rache”에 있는 사연 알아요?

 

"복수"라는 뜻으로 알고 있어요

 

그 얘기는 별로 안해

 

그리핀

 

뭐라고요?

 

갑자기 떠올랐어요

 

약혼자의 이름, 그리핀이에요

 

성은 알아요?

 

그건 몰라요

 

샬롯의 어깨에 있던 새 문신 기억하지?

 

그리핀

 

잘못 본 게 아니라면, 저 문신과
같은 문신가에게 받은거야

 

문신 가게 이름이 뭐죠?

 

진행상황은요?

 

진전이 있었고, 중요했어요

 

샬롯의 문신가인 아비브와 통화해서

 

샬롯과 새 남친 그리핀에 대해 들었어요

 

가게에 같이 갔었군

 

문신 바늘로 사랑을 영원히
남기고 싶은 사람들이 가는 곳이죠

 

절대 좋은 생각이 아니죠, 내 의견으로는

 

인생은 기념품을 남기기에는
너무 유동적이라서

 

내 배에 커다랗게 "모리아티"라고
써져있다고 상상해봐요

 

"아이린"이었겠지만
무슨 말인지는 알겠어요

 

어쨌든, 샬롯의 그리핀은
거침없이 그려졌지만

 

남친 그리핀 쪽은, 틀어졌다고 해요

 

신청서는 적었지만

 

바늘을 꽂기도 전에
마음을 바꿨대요

 

겁먹었네

 

그의 입장에서는

 

몰몬교도라고 주장했을지도 모르죠

 

문신을 성스러운 인체의
더럽힘이라고 생각하니까

 

샬롯이 실망스럽게도, 문신 가게를 나가서

 

다시 돌아오지 않았대요

 

하지만 신청서에 서명이 남아있다면

 

그리핀의 이름 전체와 주소가 있겠죠

 

샬롯이 실종된지 1주일이 넘었을텐데

 

난 이유를 알고 싶어요

 

아비브가 서류를 뒤져서
찾는대로 알려주기로 했어요

 

잘됐네요. 그럼 우리
얘기할 시간이 있죠

 

무슨 얘기요?

 

옆집의 AwayKay와

 

그 모든 일이 당신 잘못이라는 얘기

 

음

 

음? 그게 전부예요?

 

우리가 집에서 쫓아내다시피 했는데

 

고작 할 말이 "음"이 전부라니

 

이건 지금 쓰는 이메일
주소가 아니라는거 알죠

 

그래서요?

 

그래서, 처음 가비씨를
만났을 때, 난 중독상태였고

 

여기서 오래 살 생각은 없었어요

 

새 친구를 만들 생각도 없어서

 

90년대 후반 이후로 사용하지
않는 이메일 주소를 줬어요

 

전자우편으로 불만을 제기하는 대신

 

우리 집 문을 두드렸었어야죠

 

-당신을 어려워했어요
-내가 협박했대요?

 

협박했다고 해도 기억 못하겠죠

 

약에 취했었으니까요

 

가비씨가 이사를 결정했을 때는

 

당신이 여기 들어와서 산 지
2년은 됐을 무렵이죠

 

내 탓으로 돌리려고 그래요?

 

비난은 같이 받아야한다는 말이에요

 

시끄럽게 하는 사람은 당신이잖아요

 

당신은 날 막지 않았어요. 왜? 내가 하는
작업이 중요하다는 걸 알고 있으니까

 

다수의 선을 위해서라고
말한다면, 때려줄 거예요

 

런던에서 살던 내 집,
221B에 같이 갔었죠?

 

221A에 사는 사람에 대해
내가 말했었나요?

 

아뇨

 

그들도 날 이웃으로
좋아하지 않았어요

 

-어떻게 했어요?
-각별히 신경썼죠

 

무슨 뜻이에요? 신경썼다니?

 

문신가예요

 

그리핀의 개인정보를 찾았대요

 

샬롯을 죽였을리가 없죠
난 샬롯을 사랑했어요

 

맘에 안들겠지만, 별로 안 어울려요

 

샬롯은 다사다난한 과거가 있었죠

 

가끔 옛날 버릇으로 돌아갈 때도 있었지만

 

나도 완벽하지는 않았어요

 

과거는 묻어놓기로 하고 함께 일했어요

 

정확히 뭘 했었죠?

 

지역교구에서 함께 일했어요

 

인생의 변화도 고민했었죠

 

우린 결혼과 아이에 대해 얘기했어요

 

실례할게요. 화장실 좀

 

해야할 질문이 있어요

 

샬롯은 사망한지 1주일이 넘었는데

 

두 사람이 그렇게 행복했다면

 

왜 실종신고를 하지 않았죠?

 

가끔 잠수를 탔어요

 

다퉜을 때

 

보통 그런 일이 있을 때는, 한동안 사라져서

 

연락이 끊기고는 했어요

 

한 번은 저한테 말하지도 않고
독일 집으로 돌아간 적도 있었어요

 

그래서, 이번에도 그런 줄 알았어요

 

왜 그렇게 생각했죠?

 

싸웠나요?

 

샬롯이 저한테 문신을 받으라고 했어요

 

내키지 않아서, 거절했어요

 

샬롯이 화를 냈고, 우린 말다툼 끝에
샬롯이 먼저 가버렸어요

 

며칠 뒤에 집에 찾아갔지만

 

나오지 않았어요, 그래서

 

더 시간을 줘야겠다고 생각했어요

 

결국엔 돌아올 거라고 확신했었죠

 

항상 그랬으니까

 

뭐야, 저거? 이봐요

 

저런 짓을 하면 안돼죠, 이봐요!

 

뭐하는 짓이야? 무단침입이잖아!

 

그리핀, 모범적인 청년으로 보였는데

 

뒷마당에 약물 제조실이 있는
이유를 설명해줄 수 있을까요

 

샬롯의 아이디어였어요

 

우리 둘 다 곤란한 상황이었어요

 

돈을 더 벌어야했죠

 

그래서 불법 약물 제조를 시작했군요

 

불법이 아니라, 위조약품이죠

 

구체적으로는 위조된
발기불능 알약이지

 

주교가 뭐라고 말하려나?

 

좋아하시지 않겠죠

 

하지만 제약회사들이 그 약
한알에 얼마를 받는지 아세요?

 

40-50달러죠

 

대부분의 보험은 적용이 안돼요, 강도죠

 

 

그래서 당신과 샬롯이 큰 제약회사에
맞서싸우기로 결심했다구요

 

우린 5달러도 안되는 가격으로
비슷한 약을 만들 수 있어요

 

유통업자에게 개당 10, 15달러에 팔면

 

한 번에 10만달러는

 

쓸어모으겠네?

 

하지만 둘 다 아직 세를 살고

 

은행 계좌의 잔고가 늘지 않았던데?

 

샬롯이 합법적으로 버는

 

약간의 돈은 제라켐 소송을 돕는

 

변호사에게 들어가고 있었어요

 

학자금 대출 상환과

 

할머니의 의료비 때문에

 

당신도 거의 남은 게 없죠

 

여기서 생기는 질문:
돈은 어디로 갔을까?

 

난 몰라요

 

믿기 힘들어요

 

당신은 화학자로, 샬롯의 목숨을 앗아간

 

독소 추출에 필요한 기술이 있어요

 

난 그런 짓 안했어요

 

그럼 돈의 행방을 말해봐요

 

난 못해요

 

누구한테 파는지도 몰라요

 

샬롯이 돈을 다루고,

 

유통업자와의 거래,
다 알아서 했어요

 

내가 물어볼 때마다

 

계획대로 잘 되고 있다고 말해서

 

여생이 보장됐을 줄 알았어요

 

그것 뿐이에요

 

그리고 넌 샬롯을 믿었어?

 

오늘까지는요

 

아마 행복한 척 했을지도 모르죠

 

가끔은 그랬어요

 

아마도 샬롯과 같이
일했던 사람이 돈을 안 줘서

 

밀어붙이다가 살해됐을지도 몰라요

 

저는 모른다는 말이에요

 

그런 얘기 밖에는 설명이 안돼요

 

네

 

회계자문 보고서를 받았어요

 

위조약물로 번 돈을
그리핀이 숨긴 흔적은 없고

 

집이나 연구실에서

 

버섯독 합성에 필요한 전구물질을

 

다룬 증거도 없어요

 

그럼 그리핀의 진술이 다 확인됐네요?

 

네, 위약 제조 혐의는 있지만

 

살해범은 아니에요

 

샬롯의 유통업자를 알아내는
일은 잘 되고 있어요?

 

셜록 말로는 계획이 있대요

 

식료품점에 들러서 가는 길이라..

 

마커스, 내가 다시 전화할게요

 

-당신이 불내지 않았다고 말해요
-내가 불내지 않았어요

 

AwayKay 문제는 당신이
신경쓰겠다고 말했잖아요

 

민속 공예였어요

 

특히

 

전기톱 조각이요

 

나무 기둥을 전기톱으로 조각하는 것으로

 

곰이나 독수리를 만들어요

 

질이 낮고 매우 시끄러워요

 

창고에서 전기톱을 찾아서

 

기름칠하고 있었어요

 

화재가 시작됐을 때는

 

당신 알리바이는 전기톱 기름칠이었다구요

 

221A와의 문제 해결 방법이었어요?

 

민속 공예?

 

221A를 샀어요

 

현재 상황과 똑같이 할 수도 있지만

 

전기톱이 첫걸음으로 보였어요

 

미안하지만 난 당신이 방화범인 것 같아요

 

내가 용의자였죠

 

소방관은 화재는 전기에서 시작됐고,

 

앰프에서 시작됐다고 했어요

 

사고죠

 

다른 소식은, 여러 곳의

 

온라인 약국에서 발기부전
치료제를 배송주문했어요

 

샬롯과 그리핀이 제조한 약의 양으로 봐선,

 

대부분의 유통 과정이라고 보였으니까요

 

위약과 진품의 미묘한 차이를 봐요

 

샬롯과 그리핀의 약이
파란색이 약간 부족해요

 

같은 농도를 가진 약을 찾는다면

 

온라인 약국에 상품을 제공하는

 

유통업자를 찾을 수 있어요

 

그래요. 제가 부주의로
위조약을 팔았네요

 

경고인가요, 과태료?

 

별로 심각하게 생각하지 않네요

 

제 입장에서는 과태료는

 

사업비의 일부일 뿐이죠

 

살인은 어때요?

 

그것도 사업 전략 중 하나인가요?

 

누가 살해됐어요?

 

샬롯 코니그

 

그 약을 만든 여자였어요

 

독살됐어

 

당신은 면허 약사죠, 퐁씨

 

생화학 실험실도 잘 알고 있겠죠

 

내가 왜 살롯을 죽이겠어요?

 

좋은 물건을 만들어주는데

 

샬롯의 유통업자라는 건 인정하는군요?

 

네, 맞아요. 하지만 죽이지는 않았어요

 

그럼 돈은 어딨어요?

 

무슨 돈이요?

 

샬롯의 약에 지불해야했던 돈

 

수십만달러도 넘을텐데

 

내가 줘야할 돈은 한푼도
빼지않고 다 줬어요

 

부동산으로 지불했어요

 

보세요

 

뉴워크의 부동산을 사서

 

일종의 비밀 보험으로
쓰는 신탁에 넣었어요

 

모두 이자상환 대출이네요

 

내가 이자를 내면
더 많은 물건과 교환했어요

 

하지만 샬롯이 오래 갖고
있을 것 같지는 않았어요

 

이익을 남기고 팔기 위한
거래를 하려는 것 같았지만

 

자세한 얘기는 못 들었어요

 

저 부동산 지도가 있어요?

 

네

 

모두 제라켐 공장 근처네요

 

드디어 우리가 샬롯의 복수를 알아냈어요

 

샬롯의 부동산의 위치는 여기죠

 

제라켐 공장의 2곳과 맞닿아있어요

 

그렇군요

 

제라켐은 여기에 3개의 공장이 있어요

 

2개는 안쪽이고 하나는

 

퍼세익 강 옆에 있어요

 

각각 1/4마일정도 떨어져있어요

 

그렇죠?

 

맞아요

 

이 거리가 중요한 이유를
설명해줄 수 있어요?

 

환경보호국에 의해 개별
시로 인정받으려면

 

1/4마일 이상 떨어져있어야해요

 

더 가까우면

 

오염단속에서 1개로 세기 때문이죠

 

1개의 큰 공장은 3개의 작은 공장보다

 

엄격한 단속의 대상이 되겠죠

 

제라켐이 시에 제출한 계획서에 다르면

 

샬롯의 생체연료 공정은
이 공장에서 시행될 계획이죠

 

해조류 탱크는 여기,
공정은 여기

 

문제만 빼면요

 

확장에 의해 공장들의 간격이 좁아지면

 

환경보호국의 엄격한 단속을 유인하게 되고

 

매년 수백만달러가 들어가겠죠, 만약

 

이 두 공장을 내륙쪽으로
확장하지 않으면

 

환경보호국의 간격 측정은

 

경계에서 경계가 아니라
중심에서 중심까지니까

 

이 공장들을 이렇게 확장하면

 

제라켐은 과태료 지불이나 업그레이드 없이

 

원래 레벨을 유지할 수 있어요

 

샬롯이 당신들보다 먼저 알았어요

 

길을 막았어요

 

제라켐이 생체연료 공정에 지불해야
할 금액만큼 바가지를 씌울 생각이었죠

 

시세보다 1500만달러 이상

 

신탁이 부동산 가격으로
요구한 금액이었어요

 

이제 샬롯이 죽었어요

 

우리가 알기로는, 상속자가 없으니

 

은행에서 담보권을 행사하고

 

제라켐은 적정 시장가격으로
매입할 수 있겠군요

 

수백만달러를 아끼고

 

당신들을 괴롭혔던 잔소리꾼도 없애고

 

살인의 동기처럼 들리는군요

 

난 제라캠에서만 내 인생을 바쳤어요

 

회사가 할 수 있는 일에 대한

 

소문은 믿지 않았어요

 

실제 범법행위의 증거를 본 적이 없었어요

 

하지만 만약 샬롯 코니그가
신탁의 배후였고, 이제 죽었다면

 

사람을 죽이는 회사를
위해 일하지 않겠어요

 

뭘 원하죠?

 

협조하겠다는 겁니까?

 

제라켐을 전소시켜버리겠어요

 

미스 팰이 전부 줬어요

 

뉴 저지 확장에 대해
제라켐에서 썼던 모든 메모와 이메일

 

유용하게 쓸 수 있는 유일한 방법은

 

수천개의 새장 밑바닥에 깔려있어요

 

오, 아무 것도 못 찾았군요

 

훌륭한 거래를 찾았어요

 

이 모든 것들은, 십중팔구는

 

제라켐이 샬롯을 죽이지 않았다는 증거죠

 

겨우 2일 전에 고위 경영진들은

 

변호사들에게 부동산 신탁의

 

배후를 알아내라고 했어요

 

샬롯인 줄 몰랐군요

 

몰랐어요. 알았더라도

 

얻는 이익은 없었어요

 

1500만달러를 아낄 수 있잖아요

 

하지만 그렇더라도 특별 보너스를
받는 사람은 아무도 없어요

 

1500만달러 아껴도
제라켐 주식가격에는

 

전혀 영향을 미치지 않아요

 

스톡 옵션은 회사가 성공했을 때만
경영자가 받을 수 있어요

 

그러니 제라켐 자체에는 동기가 있지만

 

회사의 사람 중에는
아무도 동기가 없어요

 

그럼 다시 돌아가야겠네요

 

 

뭐죠?

 

트렌트 가비에게 온 이메일이에요

 

보험회사로부터 화재 보상을 거절당했대요

 

집을 단기 임대로 제공했기 때문에요

 

호텔로 임대했기 때문에

 

보상범위에 해당하지 않는대요

 

잘됐네. 플랜B로 넘어갈 수 있어요

 

플랜 221A,
매입하라. 이번엔 깎아서

 

냉정하다고 말할 수도 있지만

 

연락을 한 이유가 있어요

 

우리랑 맨처음 도착한 이웃 명단을 줬대요

 

그 이메일 전달해줘요
아침에 조사해볼게

 

약간의 잘못도 느껴지지 않아요?

 

-뭐에 대해서요?
-트렌트의 이사는 우리 잘못이잖아요

 

아직도 옆집에 살고 있었다면

 

보험에서 문제가 되진 않았을거예요

 

그게 세상의 이치예요, 왓슨

 

우리는 불가항력이었고
그는 움직이는 물체였어요

 

그가 움직였어요

 

죄책감 느끼고 싶다면

 

우린 5시간 전부터 샬롯의 범인에 대해

 

전혀 밝혀내지 못하고 있어요

 

샬롯이 목표가 아니었다면요?

 

샬롯이 발렌타인에게
버섯을 나눠줄 것을

 

범인이 알고 있었다면요?

 

새 용의자가 있어요?

 

원래 있었던 용의자예요

 

알스턴 하퍼를 너무 빨리
제외시켰는지도 몰라요

 

그와 발렌타인이 화해했다고 말했지만

 

누가 알아요?

 

다시 살펴보면

 

우리가 놓친 게 있을지도 몰라요

 

알스턴 C 하퍼
Alston C. Harper.

 

샬롯의 “rache”문신이요

 

다른 글자에 비해 R과 E가
더 진했던 게 기억나요

 

처음에는 디자인인 줄 알았는데

 

다른 이유가 있다면요?

 

당신이 맞다고 생각해요

 

하퍼를 다시 조사해볼 가치가 있어요

 

하지만 발렌타인을 노려서가 아니라

 

샬롯을 죽이려고 했기 때문이에요

 

하퍼가 샬롯을 왜요?

 

남자가 헤어진 부인에게 하는 짓이 뭘까요?

 

A.C.H.

 

Alston C. Harper

 

15분동안 강의는 시작되지 않아요

 

코르티졸 강의 들으러 오셨나봐요

 

아뇨, 개인의 싸움 또는
회피 반응을 보러 왔어요

 

당신은 샬롯 코니그 살해
혐의로 체포될 겁니다

 

내가 왜 대학원생이었던 애를 죽여요?

 

그냥 학생이 아니라 아내죠

 

환각제에 취해서 저질렀던

 

멍청한 짓 중 하나가
샬롯과의 결혼이었죠

 

알스톤 C 하퍼와 샬롯 코니그의 결혼 증명서로

 

4년전 독일 바트 톨즈에서 발행됐어요

 

이혼판정이 없으니

 

샬롯 사망 당시 법적으로

 

당신과 샬롯은 부부였어요

 

우린 별거중이었어요

 

조와 조의 열린 생활과 끝냈을 때

 

샬롯과도 더이상 지낼 수 없었어요

 

내게는 좋지 않았어요

 

샬롯은 원하지 않았죠?

 

아직 당신을 사랑했었으니까

 

어깨 뒤에 새긴 당신의
이니셜이 곤혹스러웠겠죠

 

당신과 헤어지고 나서

 

“A.C.H.” 에
“R”과 “E”를 추가해서

 

“RACHE”를 만들었어요

 

복수의 대상은 당신이었어요

 

샬롯이 이혼을 미루려고 했었죠?

 

당신 책에 나온 공정의
상당부분을 주장했어요

 

결국, 당신의 연구를 도왔던거죠

 

그래서 책을 없앴어요, 샬롯을 밀어내려고

 

전부 추측이죠

 

아닙니다

 

최근 사립탐정을 고용했죠

 

드웨인 위버

 

다행히도

 

사립탐정은 법적으로 고객의
비밀유지 의무가 없어

 

의뢰받은 일에 대해 경찰에게
자유롭게 진술할 수 있어요

 

몇달전 샬롯이 이혼을 결정했다고
하더군요. 아무 조건없이

 

의구심이 들어 드웨인을 시켜 조사를 했죠

 

불법이 아니오

 

드웨인은 일을 꽤 잘했어요

 

샬롯의 부동산 취득과

 

제라켐에 바가지를 씌우려는
시도도 밝혀냈어요

 

마침내 당신과 이혼을
결심한 이유였죠

 

사랑에 빠졌고, 부자가 됐고

 

더이상 복수를 하지 않아도 됐어요

 

당신이 복수를 원했어요

 

발목을 붙잡고 있던
시간에 대한 보상으로

 

복수도 하고 부자가 될 방법을 알아냈죠

 

샬롯의 법적인 배우자로

 

사망시 모든 재산을 상속받게 돼요

 

그 후에 제라켐에 팔 수도 있고

 

아무 증거도 없잖소

 

드웨인이 거짓말을 한거야

 

영장을 받을 정도는 됐어요

 

이미 당신의 대학 연구실을 조사했어요

 

뭘 찾았을까요

 

죽음의 모자 독을 합성했지

 

기구에서 잔여물을 발견했어

 

당신은 샬롯을 독살하고

 

우연히 발렌타인과 5명의
무고한 사람들을 살해했어

 

안녕하세요

 

내 제안을 들었나보군

 

계약하러 아니면 그냥 비웃으려고?

 

선물드리려고 왔어요

 

방화를 증명할 수 있으면

 

화재에 대한 보험을
받을 수 있어야해요

 

이게 도움이 될 거예요

 

봉고차 사진?

 

저희 보안카메라에 찍혔어요

 

손님이 집을 나갔을 때인데, 화재 발생

 

2시간 전쯤 저희 집 밖에
주차되어 있었어요

 

하지만 동네 주민 누구도 그날
전기기사를 부르지 않았어요

 

그리고 사실, 이 전기기사는 부띠끄 호텔인

 

'포인트 센터'에서만 독점적으로 일해요

 

오, 알아. 2블럭 밑에 있지

 

호텔 주인이 그 주변의 AwayKay 를

 

전부 폐업시키려고 했지

 

어제도 시도했어요

 

화재로 인해 AwayKays가 안전하지 않고

 

보험이 안된다는 걸
증명했다고 말했어요

 

호텔 주인이 전기기사를
고용해서 불을 질렀다고?

 

제가 화재 조사관에게 말했어요

 

전기기사는 이미 잡혔고

 

호텔 주인도 오늘 중으로
구속되어야해요

 

보험금만 받으면

 

재건할 수 있어. 팔지 않아도 돼

 

AwayKay를 다시 열수도 있지만

 

다시 이사를 오셨으면 해요

 

로버트 프로스는 울타리가
좋은 이웃을 만든다고 했어요

 

하지만 그 때는 방음장치가
없었기 때문일걸요

 

재건축을 하실 때, 저희가
뒤늦은 집들이 선물로

 

설치해드릴 수도 있어요

 

당신은 더 조용한 집,

 

저희에겐 이해해주는 이웃이 생기겠죠

 

날 알지도 못하잖소

 

저희가 원해요

 

좋아

 

보험금을 받으면 알려주리다

 

이건 셜록의 선물이에요

 

벌도 좋은 이웃이 될 수
있다는 걸 알아주시래요

 

 

(electric bass guitar
playing loudly)

 

(silverware clinking)

 

Sherlock, they're at it again!

 

(electric bass guitar
continues playing)

 

Hey.

 

Hey, can you hear me?

 

(shouts):
You can remove my headphones!

 

The people next door
are at it again.

 

Again?
I wasn't aware they stopped.

 

This is the third night in a row.
I know.

 

I also know that you spend
far too much time in slumber.

 

If you want my advice,
you should take advantage

 

of this disturbance,
forgo sleep,

 

and find an activity
which tests your abilities.

 

Escaping elaborate restraints,
for example.

 

If that doesn't bother you, then
why did you choose an activity

 

that included
noise-canceling headphones?

 

I didn't say I was
impervious to the noise,

 

I merely said
I was using it as an impetus.

 

In any case, our rhythm-obsessed
neighbor should be done soon.

 

He's been trying to master
a particular riff,

 

and I think that last attempt
was successful.

 

(electric bass guitar stops)

 

Yeah.

 

You can safely resume
your nightly rituals.

 

Could...

 

No, that's not...

MAN: Nature provides us

But for me,
this is her greatest gift.

 

Psilocybin.

 

A naturally-occurring compound

 

found in simple mushrooms,
which can open our minds

 

to the realm of spirit,
allowing us

 

to touch the eternal.

 

Unfortunately, the mushrooms
themselves taste like crap.

 

But the taste

 

and any nausea or discomfort
that you feel--

 

that's part of the
experience, too.

 

I'll be with you
every step of the way.

 

To the journey.

 

The effects usually take
about 30 minutes.

 

The first thing
you will probably notice...

 

(muffled gunfire,
shouting over TV)

 

That is not
part of your experience.

 

That is my oaf
of a neighbor.

 

I will take care of that.

Chad, might I ask you
to, uh,

 

don headphones

I'm hosting an experience.

 

Sure.

 

As long as you save

Uh, I'll bring you

@elder_man

 

DETECTIVE: Uh, looks like
a drug party gone wrong.

 

That's Joseph Ballantine,
botany professor at QBU.

 

Neighbor says he throws
these mushroom parties

 

a couple times a year.

 

Some party.

 

Yeah, I figure he picked the
wrong 'shrooms this time around,

 

poisoned himself
and his customers.

 

HOLMES:
Uh, wrong.

 

(clears throat)

 

That's some consultant
from Major Cases.

 

He just showed up.

 

Said he heard about it
on his scanner.

 

You made him
sit in a corner?

 

No, he did that himself.

 

I was asked not to disturb
any evidence.

 

I thought I might also
avert my gaze.

 

Your detective believes
this to be a mistake

 

on Ballantine's part,
but the professor

 

was an authority
on psychedelic mushrooms.

 

He wrote several excellent books
on the subject.

 

And despite
his idiotic mysticism,

 

he was a peerless mycologist
who would never mistake

 

poisonous mushrooms
for psychedelic ones.

 

(phone beeps)

 

Tommy Gregson asked us
to give you five minutes.

 

You've got two.

 

As I thought.

 

The mushrooms the professor
has in his tea

 

are pure psilocybe azurescens,
also known as Blue Angels.

 

They are a potent
and relatively rare species

 

native to
the Columbia River Delta.

 

There's not a toadstool
in the pot.

 

And you can tell that
just by looking?

 

Identifying fungi
is one of a host of skills

 

a good detective
should have.

 

These people died quickly.

 

Note the lack of smearing
in the various effluvia.

 

No one tried to stagger for help

 

or to crawl for the door.

 

They died where they fell,

 

meaning they were exposed
to a highly concentrated poison.

 

They were murdered.

 

Somebody put something
in their drinks.

 

More likely,
someone put something

 

in the professor's mushrooms.

 

If I had to guess, I'd say
extract of amanita phalloides,

 

the aptly-named
death cap mushroom.

 

That would make him

 

the likely target
and the students

 

collateral damage.

 

Fortunately, I've already got
a motive and suspect in mind,

 

so... it was a pleasure
meeting the both of you.

 

(doorbell buzzes)

 

I'm sorry.

 

Did I wake you?
You must be exhausted.

 

You were up till what,
5:00 in the morning

 

playing bass?

 

You live next door.

 

I do.
Sorry.

 

Our landlord told us
the walls were thick

 

and we could make
as much noise as we liked.

 

Yeah, well, I can
hear everything, okay?

 

That party you had
three weeks ago--

 

those little kids you had

 

screaming at each other
for six hours...

 

(chuckles)
Yeah, that wasn't us.

 

I heard you.

 

Uh, no.
Someone else threw that party.

 

And someone else
had the kids over.

 

We've only been
here five days.

 

Five days?

 

Yeah. Uh, we're just in town

 

to meet agents
and music executives.

 

We'll be gone by
the end of the week.

 

So you're not the new tenants?

 

No.

 

Are you guests?

 

You know this place
is an AwayKay, right?

 

I-I don't know what that is.

 

It's like, um,
vacation rental.

 

Our drummer
found it online.

 

AwayKay.com.

 

“Party pads for party people.”

 

I'm sorry about
the noise.

 

But... I think you're gonna
have to get used to it.

 

HARPER:
The fight or flight response

 

starts in the hypothalamus,
which activates

 

the adrenal gland
in two different ways.

 

Chemically,
via the pituitary gland,

 

and with a nerve impulse
via the spinal cord.

 

This triggers the adrenal gland,
the release of adrenaline,

 

and that's when things
really kick into high gear.

 

We will pick up with that
next week.

 

Remember to read chapter five.

 

Thank you.
(students murmuring)

 

Can I help
you gentlemen?

 

What about cortisol?

 

The adrenal gland
releases two hormones--

 

epinephrine, aka adrenaline,
but also cortisol,

 

and both of those
hormones are crucial

 

to the fight or
flight response.

 

I was just
teasing the next lesson.

 

And adrenaline is sexier
than cortisol.

 

Are you with
the accreditation review?

 

Because I wasn't
expecting you until next week.

 

We're with the NYPD.

 

We're here to ask
a few questions

 

about the murder of
Joseph Ballantine.

 

HARPER:
I always knew Joe's research

 

might get him into trouble.

 

But murdered?

 

Preliminary tests indicate

 

that the mushrooms he used
were infused with poison

 

from another mushroom.

 

The two of you wrote

 

three books together:
two explorations

 

on the biochemical
effects of psilocybin

 

and one textbook on
the chemistry of psychedelics.

 

Then you two had a falling out.

 

I wouldn't call it that.

 

Two years ago,

 

you published an article
in the Northeastern Journal

 

of Psychobiology
repudiating his work.

 

You called his stance
on the benefits

 

of psychedelic mushrooms
“dangerous pseudoscience.”

 

It was an evisceration;
and it was

 

a complete reversal
of the position

 

that the two of you took
in the books you wrote together.

 

Those books?
Not available anymore.

 

Pulled from the market.

 

HOLMES: I'm assuming
that was at his request.

 

And that would've cost you
tens of thousands of dollars

 

in royalties, right?

 

Look...

 

you're right that Joe and I
went our separate ways.

 

But that was my choice.

 

Joe invited me

 

to work on those books with him.

 

He wanted an expert
in brain chemistry.

 

Part of the deal was that
I take mushrooms myself.

 

He wanted me to have
first-hand experience.

 

But?
I didn't like

 

what the psilocybin
and other drugs did to me.

 

I did stupid things
when I was using.

 

I needed a
clean break.

 

Pulling the books was my idea.

 

I didn't want my name
on anything

 

that endorsed Joe's theories.

 

How did he take that?

 

He was fine.

 

And he didn't care when I ripped
him in the scientific press.

 

It fit with his image as a rebel
fighting the establishment.

 

So there were no hard feelings?

 

Joe and I were in the
same department here.

 

We ran into each
other all the time.

 

Ask anyone--
there was never any trouble.

 

We made our peace.

 

WATSON:
So what did I miss?

 

Professor Harper,
it seems,

 

did not have motive to kill
Professor Ballantine after all.

 

Oh, so you were wrong.

 

While Marcus confirms
Harper's story,

 

I've been casting
about for clues

 

as to who else might have
wanted Ballantine dead,

 

and, failing that,
where he acquired

 

his lethal mushrooms.

 

Would you care
to join me?

 

I mean, if you're sufficiently
rested, of course.

 

I wasn't sleeping in,
I was meeting our new neighbors.

 

Did you intimidate them
into silence?

 

I did.

 

But it doesn't matter;
they're short-term renters.

 

New people are
coming in on Sunday.

 

The building is advertised
on a Web site called AwayKay.

 

They cater to people looking for

 

party pads
in trendy neighborhoods.

 

They have five or six locations
within a few blocks of us.

 

Another unfortunate sign
of gentrification.

 

Perhaps we should
encourage our local muggers

 

to increase their activity.

 

We are not the only
ones with a problem.

 

I checked the
neighborhood Web site,

 

and it is filled
with noise complaints

 

about the AwayKays.

 

And local hotels
are losing business.

 

I'm gonna talk to the owner
next door tomorrow

 

and let him know
we are not happy.

 

There's a safe inside the sofa?

 

Yeah. One that relies
on concealment

 

rather than a sophisticated
locking mechanism,

 

fortunately.

 

Should be simple enough.

 

(dial clicking)

 

There.

 

Professor Ballantine's stash.

 

WATSON: Three bags
of dried mushrooms.

 

These are poor quality

 

psilocybe cubensis.

 

This is not what was used
in his ill-fated ceremony.

 

But these are
Blue Angels.

 

This is the exact same
strain I found in his tea.

 

“Looking forward
to your thoughts. Danke.

 

C.K”.

 

I saw a manuscript
that Ballantine was proofing

 

about lichen.

 

It was written by someone
named Charlotte Konig.

 

C.K.

 

(rock music playing faintly)

 

If you could just wait here,
sir, and keep the meter running.

 

Thanks.

 

According to
university records,

 

Charlotte Konig
is a German-born biochemist

 

and Ballantine's
former teaching assistant.

 

Here's a photograph of her
in her student days.

 

She's the one with the tattoos.

 

The lights are on. I hear music.

 

(doorbell rings)

 

(knocking)

 

WATSON: Hey, maybe
we should wait

 

till Marcus gets here.

 

I mean, Charlotte gave
Ballantine those mushrooms.

 

She could be a murderer.

 

Even if she is,
she's a poisoner.

 

Just don't eat or drink
anything; we should be okay.

 

(lock clicking)

 

What are you doing?

 

I smell mushrooms.

 

That's really great, but, um,

 

is it really enough to break and
enter in front of our cabbie?

 

I smell mushrooms.

 

He smells mushrooms.

 

(lock clicking)

 

(door creaking)

 

(rock music playing loudly)

 

♪ And... crazy ♪

 

♪ And you think I'm putting on
some kind of act ♪

 

♪ But this is
me, me, me, me, me ♪

 

♪ And you know what's sick? ♪

 

♪ I kinda like it ♪

 

♪ That nobody I know... ♪

 

Told you
I smelled mushrooms.

 

HOLMES: Toxicology confirms
she died from death cap poison.

 

Someone sprayed
her entire crop with the stuff.

 

These were growing on her?

 

WATSON: We think,
as she was dying,

 

she knocked over a jar
of mature mushrooms.

 

They spored, and the spores
landed on her body.

 

HOLMES:
We now think that she was

 

the intended target of the
poisoner, not Joseph Ballantine.

 

As you can tell
from these photographs,

 

her crop was too small for her
to be a dealer-- she grew

 

just enough for her own use and
occasional gifts for friends.

 

Seems unlikely the
person who did it

 

would've known she
would share her crop

 

with Ballantine.

 

Also, there was
psilocybin residue

 

in her tea kettle and cups,

 

which indicates
she was a regular user.

 

We figure it must be
someone close to her,

 

someone who knew
she grew her own mushrooms

 

and used them regularly.

 

HOLMES: Or someone
who studied her extensively.

 

Having said that,
a study of Charlotte

 

would be no simple endeavor.

 

She might have been a whiz with
botany and biochemistry, but...

 

she was not keen on electronics.
WATSON: Yeah.

 

She didn't use social media.
Didn't even have a cell phone.

 

What we know so far is
she was born in Germany,

 

came to the U.S. for college,
studied under Ballantine,

 

then had a series of low-paying,
short-term lab jobs

 

since she got her degree.

 

Another clue to her personal
life might be her tattoos.

 

She had a lot
of them.

 

There's a fresh griffin tattoo
on her shoulder,

 

an om on her neck,
vines on her forearm,

 

assorted flowers.

 

What's that on her back?

 

Uh, I think there's a
photo in the MLI's report.

 

“Rache.” What is that,
short for Rachel?

 

HOLMES:
That's possible.

 

But Charlotte's native language
is German.

 

And in German, that word is
“rache,” which means “revenge.”

 

Maybe it's the name of
a band or somethin'.

 

Or the ink could speak for itself
and Fraulein Konig craved revenge.

 

If she did, you got to wonder

 

who killed her
to keep her from getting it.

 

Actually, we may already
have a pretty good idea.

 

Charlotte Konig
was suing your company

 

for $100 million, correct?

 

She claimed we stole her process
for turning algae into biofuel.

 

Did you?

 

Of course not.

 

Zerakem developed
the same process she did

 

at roughly the same time;
it's coincidence.

 

That's not how Ms. Konig saw it.

 

Her lawsuit claims
she published her process

 

almost six months
before Zerakem announced theirs.

 

WATSON:
Your company does not have

 

the best reputation.

 

We've heard accusations
that Zerakem engaged

 

in corporate espionage, as well
as bribing government officials.

 

HOLMES:
It's not such a great leap

 

to think that if you saw
Charlotte Konig as an obstacle,

 

you might have had her removed.

 

These are denied motions
from Charlotte Konig's lawyers.

 

We had no reason
to kill her.

 

We were crushing her in court.

 

WATSON:
Did Charlotte ever try

 

to take matters
into her own hands,

 

threaten you or anyone else
at Zerakem?

 

I have no
record of that.

 

But even if
she did try,

 

we wouldn't have her killed.

 

We'd get a restraining order.

 

I have a question of my
own, if that's all right.

 

You think that Charlotte
and those other people

 

were killed by death cap poison?

 

Toxicology proved it.
Before I made VP,

 

I worked my way up
as a biochemist,

 

and I know for a fact
there's no way

 

naturally-occurring
death cap poison

 

could kill those people
so quickly.

 

HOLMES:
On that, we agree.

 

Our current theory
is that the killer

 

extracted mycotoxin
from a large number of mushrooms

 

and then concentrated it
to produce a lethal dose.

 

That is one way to do it,
but it's slow and inefficient.

 

A better way would be
to synthesize the poison,

 

build it up from scratch from
biochemical building blocks.

 

I mean, if it helps,
I could give you a list

 

of facilities around here
that do that kind of work.

 

(doorbells jingle)

 

Welcome.

 

If I can help you with
anything, let me know.

 

Um, actually, I was hoping
I could talk to you

 

about the building
you turned into an AwayKay.

 

I remember you.

 

You're the girlfriend--
Sherlock's.

 

Yeah, you moved in with him
about a year before I left.

 

Uh, I'm not his girlfriend.

 

And I didn't realize
you two knew each other.

 

We don't.

 

I introduced myself on
the day he moved in.

 

Got his name, his e-mail.

 

That's it.

 

Are you thinking of turning
your place into an AwayKay?

 

It's easy.

 

I can tell you all about it.

 

We've been having
some problems with noise.

 

People coming in
at all hours. It...

 

(chuckles)

 

Is there something funny?

 

I'm sorry, it's...

 

That's rich,

 

you two
complaining about the noise.

 

How so?

 

Because...

 

you're the reason that I can't
live in my own building.

 

You're the reason that I
can't keep tenants in there

 

for more than six
months at a time.

 

You're not happy that I turned
my place into an AwayKay?

 

Yeah, too bad.

 

You brought it
on yourselves.

 

I don't know
what you're talking about.

 

I moved out because of you two.

 

I couldn't take it anymore.

 

The weird noises,
the strange smells,

 

the explosions, and the
damn bees on the roof.

 

Oh, come on, please.

 

Don't pretend that
this is news to you.

 

Actually, it is.

 

Look, you didn't just
list your place on AwayKay.

 

You went out of your way
to attract problem tenants.

 

I read the ad. “Parties welcome.
Noise not an issue.”

 

This is not just about
paying the mortgage.

 

Every action has an equal
and opposite reaction.

 

That's physics.

 

That's crazy.

 

We could've talked about this
and fixed it a long time ago.

 

I e-mailed Sherlock
dozens of times.

 

I practically begged him
to be more considerate.

 

But it only got worse.

 

And then the... the roosters--
that was the last straw.

 

I forgot about the roosters.

 

Yeah, I did, too.

 

Eventually.

 

By moving out.

 

Those e-mails you sent--
could you show them to me?

 

I suppose we could
synthesize death cap poison,

 

but I can't imagine anyone
wanting to kill Charlotte.

 

You knew her?

 

She used to work here.

 

Until about
a year ago.

 

She was sweet, and much
quieter than you'd think.

 

All those tattoos.

 

Um, she have any issues
with anyone?

 

Conflicts over work duties,
sexual harassment,

 

anything like that?

 

WOMAN:
No, not that I'm aware of.

 

Thank you, Doctor,
you've been most helpful.

 

Excuse me.

 

Uh, I work with the police.

 

I was hoping
we might have a chat.

 

About?

 

About Charlotte Konig.

 

And whether
your sleeping together

 

had anything to do
with her murder.

 

Nobody knew about us here,
so how did you...?

 

Your forearm tattoo.

 

It's almost identical

 

to the one that Charlotte had.

 

In fact, if you were
to line them up,

 

those vines would interconnect,
would they not?

 

So the two of you were lovers.
That's not in any doubt.

 

What is in question is...

 

We were together
for almost a year.

 

I would never have hurt her.

 

But you're not together anymore.

 

When we started hanging out,
she was fun.

 

She liked to take mushrooms,
drop acid, do Molly.

 

Chemists--
we get the best stuff,

 

'cause we make it ourselves.

 

Charlotte was a nonstop party.

 

Until she wasn't?

 

About a year ago,

 

her biological clock
started ticking, loud.

 

She was talking about
wanting kids, getting married.

 

BELL:
Which didn't interest you?

 

Well, how did Charlotte take it
when you broke things off?

 

Not well, at first,
but then she got over it,

 

'cause last I heard,
she'd met some guy,

 

and they were gonna get married.

 

So, she got what she wanted,
and I did, too.

 

Win, win.

 

You know her fiance's name?

 

(sighs)

 

I was on something that night.
It's fuzzy.

 

Do you know the story behind
Charlotte's “rache” tattoo?

 

I know it meant “revenge.”

 

Aside from that, she didn't
really like to talk about it.

 

Griffin.

 

Excuse me?

 

Just came to me.

 

New guy's first name-- Griffin.

 

What about his last name?

 

I don't think it ever came up.

 

You remember the newly-inked
tattoo on Charlotte's shoulder?

 

A griffin.
Mm.

 

If I'm not mistaken,
it was by the same artist

 

that did that tattoo.

 

What was the name
of the tattoo shop?

 

Any progress?

 

Incremental, but significant.

 

I was able to contact
Charlotte's tattoo artist, Aviv,

 

who told me the tale of
Charlotte and her newest beau,

 

Griffin.

 

So they went into
the shop together.

 

As people are wont to do
when they wish

 

to immortalize their love
via the tattoo needle.

 

Never a good idea,
in my opinion.

 

Life is far too fluid
for such mementos.

 

Imagine me with a giant
“Moriarty” across my stomach.

 

It would have said “Irene”"
but I take your point.

 

Anyway, Charlotte's griffin
went on without a hitch,

 

but when it was Griffin's turn,
things went awry.

 

He filled out the release,
but no sooner

 

had the needle gun started up
than he had a change of heart.

 

He chickened out.
In his defense,

 

he invoked his membership with

 

the Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-day Saints.

 

They view tattooing as
a defilement of the body temple.

 

To Charlotte's dismay,
he left the tattoo shop

 

uninked, never to return.

 

But he signed the release.

 

If Aviv kept it, that means

 

he has Griffin's full
name and address.

 

More than a week passed without
him reporting her missing,

 

and I would like to know why.

 

Aviv is searching his files and
will get back to us presently.

 

Good. So we have
some time to talk.

 

About what?

 

About the AwayKay
next door

 

and how the whole
thing is your fault.

 

Hmm.

 

Hmm? That's it?

 

We chased some poor guy
out of his home,

 

and all you can say is “Hmm.”

 

You do see that this is not
my current e-mail address.

 

So?

 

So, when I first met
Mr. Garby, I was on drugs,

 

didn't think I'd be
living here for very long.

 

I had no desire to
make any new friends,

 

so I gave him
an e-mail address

 

I hadn't used since
the late '90s.

 

Instead of issuing his
grievances electronically,

 

he could've just knocked
on our front door.

 

He was afraid of you.
Did I threaten him?

 

You don't even remember
if you threatened him.

 

I was on drugs.

 

May I point out that by the time
Mr. Garby vacated his premises,

 

you had been living here
for almost two years.

 

What, you're trying
to blame this on me?

 

I'm saying there's plenty
of blame to go around.

 

You are the one who makes
all the noise. And you're the one

 

who never stops me. Why? Because
you know that the work I do

 

is important. It's for...
Okay, if you say

 

it's for the greater good,
I am gonna punch you.

 

You accompanied me once

 

to my former residence
in London, 221B.

 

Did I ever tell you about
the people in 221A?

 

No.

 

They didn't like having
me for a neighbor, either.

 

What did you do?
I took care of it.

 

What do you mean, (phone chimes)
you took care of it?

 

(sighs)

 

It's the tattoo artist.

 

He's located Griffin's
personal information.

 

I couldn't have
killed Charlotte.

 

I loved her.

 

If you don't mind me saying so,

 

you seem like a...
you seem like an unlikely match.

 

I mean, Charlotte had
a checkered past.

 

And sometimes she fell
back into old habits, but...

 

I wasn't perfect, either.

 

We were working
to put all that behind us.

 

How were you doing that
exactly?

 

GRIFFIN: We started going to services
together at the local ward.

 

She was considering
converting.

 

We were talking about
getting married, having kids.

 

Sir, excuse me.
I just need to...

 

bathroom.

 

(door opens)

 

I have to ask.

 

Charlotte has been dead
for over a week.

 

If you two were
so happy together,

 

why didn't you
report her missing?

 

(sighs)

 

Sometimes she'd slip.

 

We'd fight.

 

Usually when that happened,
she'd disappear for a while,

 

she wouldn't return my calls.

 

Once, she even went home
to Germany without telling me,

 

so... I just thought it was
the same thing this time.

 

And why did you think that?

 

Did you two have a fight?

 

(sighs)

 

She wanted me
to get a tattoo.

 

Uh... it just felt wrong,
so I said no.

 

She got upset,
we argued, she left.

 

I went by her place
a few days later, but, uh...

 

she didn't answer the door,
so...

 

I just decided
to give her some space.

 

And I was sure
she would come back eventually.

 

She always had before.

 

What the heck? Hey.

 

Hey! Hey, he can't
do that! Hey!

 

Hey, what are you doing?!
That's breaking and entering!

 

Griffin, you seem like
an exemplary young man,

 

so perhaps you'd
like to explain to me

 

why you have a drug lab
in your backyard.

 

GRIFFIN:
It was Charlotte's idea.

 

We were both struggling.

 

We needed to earn
some extra money.

 

So you began
to manufacture illegal drugs.

 

Not illegal. Counterfeit.

 

Counterfeit
erectile dysfunction pills,

 

to be specific.

 

What's your local bishop
going to have to say about that?

 

He's not gonna like it.

 

But do you know how much the
pharmaceutical companies charge

 

for just one of those pills?

 

$40 or $50.

 

And most insurance
won't cover them.

 

That's robbery.

 

So you and Charlotte decided

 

to strike a blow
against Big Pharma.

 

We can make pills every bit
as good as the real thing

 

for under five dollars each.

 

GREGSON:
Assuming you sold them

 

to a distributor
for ten, $15 a pill,

 

you would have
raked in about...

 

100 grand a batch?

 

Yet, the both of you
are still renting,

 

there's no appreciable increase

 

in your bank accounts?

 

What little money
that Charlotte made

 

from her legitimate jobs
was going to the lawyers

 

handling her Zerakem lawsuit.

 

And between paying off
your student loans

 

and your grandmother's
medical bills,

 

you're barely getting by.

 

Which raises the question:
where did the money go?

 

(sighs)
I don't know.

 

HOLMES:
That's hard to believe.

 

You're a chemist, as well,
so you have the requisite skills

 

to create the mycotoxin
that took her life.

 

I would never do that.

 

Then explain
where the money went.

 

I can't.

 

I don't even know
who we were selling to.

 

Charlotte handled the
money, she dealt with

 

the distributor,
all of it.

 

Whenever I asked,

 

she said everything was
going according to plan,

 

and that we would be
set for life.

 

That's it.

 

And you believed her?

 

I did until today.

 

But maybe she was putting
a happy face on things.

 

You know, she did that
sometimes.

 

Maybe... whoever she was
working with wasn't paying,

 

she pushed, and they killed her.

 

I mean, I don't know.

 

That's the only thing
that makes sense to me.

 

(phone ringing)

 

Hey.

 

BELL:
Hey. So I just got a report

 

from the forensic accountant.

 

There's no sign
Griffin's been hiding the money

 

from those counterfeit
E.D. pills,

 

and there's no evidence
in his home or his lab

 

that he's handled
the precursors you'd need

 

to synthesize
the mushroom poison.

 

So his story checks out?

 

Yeah. We're holding him

 

on the drug charges, but
I don't think he's our killer.

 

So, I don't suppose you
and Sherlock have had any luck

 

identifying Charlotte's
distributor?

 

Well, Sherlock said
he had a plan.

 

I just took a break to get some
groceries, so I'm almost...

 

(indistinct police radio
chatter, distant shouting)

 

Marcus, I'm gonna
have to call you back.

 

Tell me you did not start that fire.
I did not start that fire.

 

You said that you were
gonna take care

 

of the AwayKay problem.

 

Through folk art.

 

Specifically,

 

chain saw sculpting.

 

One uses a chain saw
to artfully sculpt

 

entire tree trunks
into a bear perhaps

 

or an eagle.

 

All rather kitsch
and extremely loud.

 

I'd retrieved my chain saw
from storage,

 

and I was in the process
of oiling it

 

when that fire broke out.

 

So your alibi is that you were
oiling your chain saw.

 

Is this how you solved
your problem at 221A?

 

Folk art?

 

I bought 221A.

 

I was quite willing to do the
same in our current situation,

 

but the chain saw seemed
like a logical first step.

 

(sighs) Well, I am sorry
that I accused you of arson.

 

Well, I was
the obvious suspect.

 

The fire marshal believes
that the fire was

 

electrical in nature, started
by a faulty amplifier.

 

An accident.

 

In other news,
I've placed express orders

 

for erectile dysfunction
medication

 

from several dozen
online pharmacies.

 

Given the volume of pills
Charlotte and Griffin

 

were manufacturing,
it seems like

 

the most likely route
for distribution.

 

Note the subtle difference

 

between the counterfeits
and the real thing.

 

Charlotte and Griffin's pills
are a little less blue.

 

Hmm. If I can find pills
in the same shade,

 

I might be able to identify

 

which online pharmacy they were
using to distribute their wares.

 

Okay. So I inadvertently sold
some counterfeit medicine.

 

We talking a warning, a fine?

 

You don't seem
very concerned.

 

In my line of work,
fines are just

 

part of the cost
of doing business.

 

What about murder?

 

Is that part
of your business model as well?

 

Who got murdered?

 

Charlotte Konig.

 

The woman who
made those pills.

 

HOLMES:
She was poisoned.

 

You're a licensed pharmacist,
Mr. Fong.

 

I assume you know your way
around a biochem lab.

 

Why would I kill Charlotte?

 

She made a great product.

 

So you admit to being
her distributor?

 

Yeah, fine,
but I didn't kill her.

 

So where's the money?

 

What money?

 

The money
that you should've paid her

 

for her product-- hundreds of
thousands of dollars.

 

I paid Charlotte
every dime that I owed her.

 

I just did it in real estate.

 

Look.

 

She had me buy up a bunch
of rundown properties in Newark,

 

put them in a trust

 

where she was a secret
sole beneficiary.

 

Those are all
interest-only loans.

 

And I pay the interest,
in exchange for more product.

 

But I don't think she was gonna

 

hold on to the properties
for long.

 

I got a feeling
she was working on a deal

 

to unload them at a profit, but
she never told me the details.

 

You got a map
of these properties?

 

Sure.

 

WATSON:
Those are all near

 

Zerakem facilities.

 

I think we've finally found
Charlotte's revenge.

 

HOLMES: Note the location
of Charlotte's properties here.

 

All of them bordering
these two Zerakem facilities.

 

I see.

 

Now, Zerakem has three
facilities in the area, right?

 

These two, further inland,
and this main one here

 

by the Passaic River.

 

These are separated by a little
over a quarter of a mile.

 

Correct?

 

Correct.

 

Right. Could
you explain

 

to us why that distance
is important?

 

For these facilities to be
considered separate entities

 

by the EPA,
they have to be more than

 

a quarter of a mile apart.

 

If they're any closer,
they count as one facility

 

for the sake of
pollution regulation.

 

And one larger facility
is subject to much more

 

stringent regulation
than three smaller ones.

 

Mm-hmm.
Now, according to plans

 

Zerakem's filed with the city,
they plan to implement

 

Charlotte's biofuel process
at this plant here.

 

Algae tanks here,
processing here.

 

WATSON:
Except there's a problem.

 

By expanding,
you close the gap

 

between the facilities,
which will trigger

 

much more stringent
EPA regulations

 

that will cost you
millions per year, unless...

 

We expand these two facilities

 

further inland.
HOLMES: Mm.

 

Because the EPA measures
the distance between facilities

 

not from border to border,
but from center to center.

 

So if you expand
these facilities like so...

 

And Zerakem can continue
to pollute at their old levels

 

without paying fines
or making upgrades.

 

BELL: Charlotte figured
that out before you did.

 

She roadblocked you.

 

She was trying
to gouge Zerakem

 

into paying her the money
that she believed she was owed

 

for her biofuel process.

 

$15 million above market--

 

that's what the trust that holds
these properties was demanding.

 

Except now Charlotte is dead.

 

As far as we can tell,
she has no heirs,

 

so the banks will foreclose
on her properties,

 

and Zerakem will be able
to purchase them

 

at fair market value.
HOLMES: Thus saving millions

 

and avoiding paying off a gadfly
who's been making you suffer.

 

Sounds like a motive
for murder to me.

 

I have worked my entire
adult life at Zerakem.

 

I've never
believed the rumors

 

about what the company
is capable of.

 

I-I've never seen any real
evidence of any wrongdoing.

 

But if Charlotte Konig

 

is behind the trust
and now she's dead...

 

I won't work for a company
that murders people.

 

What do you need?

 

You're offering to cooperate?

 

I'm offering to burn Zerakem
to the ground.

 

Miss Pal gave
us everything.

 

Every memo that anyone
at Zerakem ever wrote

 

about the New Jersey
expansion, every e-mail.

 

The only way any of
it would be useful

 

is lining the bottom of
several thousand birdcages.

 

Oh, you're not
finding anything.

 

I found a great deal.

 

All of it indicates that,
in all likelihood,

 

Zerakem did not kill
Charlotte Konig.

 

As recently as two days ago,

 

the senior management were
instructing their lawyers

 

to attempt to identify

 

the principals
behind the land trust.

 

They didn't know
it was Charlotte.

 

They did not,
and even if they had,

 

they would not have been able
to profit from it.

 

The company would have
saved $15 million.

 

But no one at the company
was in line

 

for a specific bonus
over the deal.

 

The $15 million savings
would not have moved

 

Zerakem's stock price one iota.

 

And stock options are

 

the only way the
executives could share

 

in the corporation's
success.

 

So while Zerakem itself
has motive,

 

no human being
at the company does.

 

So we're back
to the drawing board.

 

Mm-hmm.

 

(phone chimes)

 

(phone clicks)

 

What is it?

 

Uh, it's an e-mail
from Trent Garby.

 

He's saying that
his insurance company

 

is refusing
to pay out on the fire,

 

because he was using his
property for short-term rentals.

 

So it was technically a hotel.

 

He doesn't have
the right coverage.

 

That's good. We can
carry out plan B,

 

aka plan 221A: buy the
place, now at a discount.

 

I would say
that you're a callous jerk,

 

but that's actually
why he's reaching out.

 

He's giving us and the other
neighbor first crack.

 

Forward me the e-mail, I'll
investigate it in the morning.

 

(groans)

 

Don't you feel even a little bit bad?
About?

 

I mean, it's our fault
that Trent moved out.

 

If he was still
living next door,

 

he wouldn't have this issue
with his insurance.

 

That's the way
of the world, Watson.

 

We were an irresistible force,
he was a movable object.

 

He moved.

 

If you want to feel
bad about something,

 

feel bad about the fact that
we're no closer to identifying

 

Charlotte's killer
than we were five hours ago.

 

What if Charlotte
wasn't the target?

 

What if the killer knew
that she was gonna share

 

her mushrooms with Ballantine?

 

You have a new suspect in mind?

 

Old one, actually.

 

Maybe we gave up too quickly
on Alston Harper.

 

I mean, he said he and
Ballantine buried the hatchet,

 

but who knows?

 

Maybe we should take
a look at him again,

 

see if we missed anything.

 

Alston C. Harper.

 

Charlotte's “rache” tattoo.

 

I seem to remember the “R”
and the “E” incrementally darker

 

than the other letters; first,
I thought that was by design.

 

What if there was
another reason?

 

I think you're right.

 

Harper is worth
looking at again,

 

but not because he wanted
to kill Ballantine,

 

because he wanted
to kill Charlotte.

 

What would Harper have
against Charlotte?

 

What does any man have
against his ex?

 

A.C.H.

 

Alston C. Harper.

 

Uh, class doesn't start
for another 15 minutes.

 

I assume you're here
for the lecture on cortisol.

 

No, we're here to see

 

the fight-or-flight response
in person.

 

You're being arrested

 

for the murder
of Charlotte Konig.

 

Why would I murder
my former grad student?

 

Not just a student, your wife.

 

Apparently, one of
the stupid things you did

 

when you were on hallucinogens
was marry Charlotte.

 

BELL: Marriage certificate
for Alston C. Harper

 

and Charlotte Konig,

 

issued four years ago
in Bad Tolz, Germany.

 

There's no divorce decree
on file,

 

so legally you and Charlotte
were still husband and wife

 

at the time of her death.

 

We were estranged.

 

When I made my break

 

from Joe and his...

 

expanded lifestyle, I couldn't
be with Charlotte anymore.

 

It wasn't good for me.

 

HOLMES: She didn't like
that though, did she?

 

She was still in love with you.

 

I mean, she'd already
gone to the trouble

 

of having your initials tattooed
on the back of her shoulder.

 

WATSON:
After you broke her heart,

 

she added an “R” and an “E,”

 

turning “A.C.H.” into “rache.”

 

You were the one she wanted
to take revenge against.

 

She tried to hold you up
on the divorce, right?

 

Claimed a chunk of
the proceeds from your books.

 

After all, she helped you
do the research.

 

That's why you had them pulled,
to spite her.

 

This is all conjecture.

 

HOLMES:
No, it's not.

 

You recently hired
a private detective,

 

one Duane Weaver.

 

Fortunately for us,

 

P.I.s are not legally bound
by client privilege.

 

They're quite free to discuss
their cases with the police.

 

Duane told us Charlotte
approached you a few months ago

 

and finally offered a divorce,
no strings attached.

 

You got suspicious and hired him
to look into her.

 

That's not illegal.

 

HOLMES:
Duane's more than competent.

 

He uncovered Charlotte's
real estate holdings

 

and her attempts
to strong-arm Zerakem

 

into a generous buyout.

 

WATSON:
That's why she was

 

finally willing
to grant you the divorce.

 

She was in love,
she was about to get rich;

 

she didn't need
to seek revenge anymore.

 

Only, you wanted
revenge against her,

 

for the years she'd held
your feet to the flames.

 

You realized
that you could have it

 

and get rich in the process.

 

As Charlotte's legal husband,
you would inherit

 

all of her properties
when she died.

 

Then you could
sell them to Zerakem.

 

You have no evidence.

 

Duane is lying.

 

We have enough for a warrant.

 

We already searched
your on-campus lab.

 

Guess what we found.

 

You manufactured
synthetic death cap poison.

 

We found residue
in your equipment.

 

You poisoned Charlotte,
and then you inadvertently

 

killed Ballantine
and five innocent people.

Hi.

 

I take it you
got my offer.

 

Here to talk terms
or just gloat?

 

Bearing gifts, actually.

 

If you can
prove arson,

 

you should be able to collect
insurance for the fire.

 

So... this should do it.

 

Pictures of a van?

 

Captured by
our security cameras.

 

This van was parked
outside our brownstone

 

a few hours before the fire,
when your guests were out.

 

But no one in the neighborhood
hired an electrician that day.

 

And in fact, this electrician
works almost exclusively

 

for the Point Center,
a boutique hotel.

 

Oh, I know it; it's a
couple of blocks down.

 

In fact, the owner of
the hotel has tried

 

to get every AwayKay in the
neighborhood to shut down.

 

Yesterday he tried again.

 

He said that your fire proved

 

that AwayKays were
unsafe and underinsured.

 

He hired an electrician
to start the fire?

 

I spoke to
the arson investigators.

 

The electrician is in custody,

 

and the hotel's owner should be
in jail by the end of the day.

 

Well, if I get an
insurance settlement,

 

I-I can rebuild, I-I
don't have to sell.

 

You can also reopen
your AwayKay,

 

but we would much rather
you moved back in.

 

Robert Frost said that fences
make good neighbors.

 

But maybe that's
because there wasn't

 

sound-dampening
insulation back then.

 

Since you are rebuilding anyway,
we can have it installed for you

 

as a belated housewarming gift.

 

So a quieter home for you,

 

and a neighbor who knows
what he's getting into for us.

 

You don't even know me.

 

We'd like to.

 

All right.

 

When I get the insurance
settlement, I'll let you know.

 

This is from Sherlock.

 

He wants you to know that bees
can be good neighbors, too.
