Ghaaahh! GRACE: SJPD! Stop right there! Hands where I can see them! Uhh! (GUNSHOT) Ahh! Go.
Go! (REX BARKING) (REX BARKING) (SOFT MUSIC) (REX BARKING) (REX WHINING) (REX WHINING) (THEME MUSIC) (SEAGULLS) - CHARLIE: So what do you think, partner? - (REX BARKS) You like those ones? (REX BARKING) - Good choice.
- I agree.
Hey, Sarah.
I got your message.
Hey, Rex.
Thank-you for inviting me.
Well, you're a part of the team.
It wouldn't feel right to not have you be a part of it.
I really appreciate that.
Feel like a walk? It's a bit of a hike.
Yeah, I'd love to.
And you know what? It will give you time to tell me the whole story.
Because I only know bits and pieces of how you and Rex got together.
Oh.
Well It began with an abduction.
I'd been off duty.
But I got called in to assist.
- Excuse me.
- Okay.
By the time I responded, the search was underway.
I met Joe at the scene.
And things were looking grim.
What do we know so far? The boy's name is Sam Hansen.
Aged 13.
Lives with his mother, Emma Hansen.
He was walking home from a piano lesson when he was snatched off the street he lives on.
- Are we looking at a parental abduction? - No no.
The father's deceased.
Witnesses? Yeah, a neighbour saw him pushed into a white van.
Called it in.
Did they give a suspect description? Nothing helpful.
Male, medium build.
- Wearing a dark hoodie.
- Mm-hmm.
Have we got a Canine Unit tracking him? You haven't heard? Constable Grace Lindsay was shot and killed by the abductor.
What about the dog? Still tracking him? No.
That dog's proved to be a problem.
(REX BARKING) GUS: Then call K9 again! Would you please? We need someone down here now! I've got four months left running Forensics.
K9 is not my responsibility.
(REX BARKING) - You want to fill me in, Gus? - Yeah.
That dog won't let us anywhere near his partner's body.
(REX WHINING) He's trying to protect her.
Yeah, but he's also stopping us from processing the scene.
That piece of cloth lying next to him could tell us who did this.
Well maybe time to try a new approach.
What's the dog's name? Rex.
Rex? Seriously? Seriously.
Well time for Rex and I to have a little chat.
(REX GROWLS) - (REX BARKING) - Hey.
Easy.
Everybody just give Rex a little space.
Has Charlie ever even owned a dog? I have no idea.
- (REX BARKING) - Hey, Rex.
Hi.
Okay.
You must be hungry.
Are you ? Hey.
(REX WHINES) Look at this.
Granola bar.
- It's only half eaten.
- (REX BARKING) (REX SNIFFING) - (REX BARKS) - Hey! (REX BARKING) Enough of that! Understood? Yeah, I know.
We both have our issues to deal with.
Now is not the time.
Look.
I know you wanted to protect Officer Lindsay.
And you couldn't.
It's not your fault.
(REX BARKING) But now, other officers need your help.
I need you to come with us so that we can find out who did this.
- (REX YELPS) - Yeah.
And bring Sam home safe.
Okay? Gus, we're going to need your car.
- GUS: Be my guest.
- (REX BARKING) Okay.
- Okay.
- (REX BARKING) Come on.
Come on.
(REX YELPS) Don't worry.
We'll take good care of her.
Huh.
Good boy.
(REX BARKS) Alright Gus.
I need any DNA information you can give me, ASAP.
- Will do.
- Charlie, you're with me.
Yeah.
We're going to get this guy, Rex.
I promise.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC) SARAH: I remember you telling me Rex's original partner died in the line of duty.
But I didn't realize - it was part of a kidnapping.
- This is the street it happened on.
Sam was walking right over there when he got snatched.
- His mother must have been in agony.
- Yeah, she was.
Her name was Emma Hansen.
She and Sam lived in that house.
Right there.
It was the first place we went.
- How could I have let this happen? - Don't blame yourself, Emma.
It's not your fault.
What's happening now? Will the dogs find them? Well, with the amount of rain we've had lately, I'm afraid that they've lost the scent.
But don't worry.
They're still searching.
And hopefully they'll be able to - get the trail again.
- Hopefully? That's it? I'm sorry.
We didn't get your name.
Veronica Majors.
I'm president of the Neighbourhood Association.
And I run the Neighbourhood Watch.
I'm sorry I snapped at you.
I just feel like we've totally let Emma down.
Well, I can assure you that we have the full resources of SJPD on this case.
Well that's reassuring.
Hmm? Emma, do you mind if I have a look in Sam's room? Of course.
It's just down the hall.
(SOFT MUSIC) (OMINOUS MUSIC) Has anything unusual happened in the neighbourhood? - I'm sorry.
I can't think of anything.
- It's okay.
Even the littlest thing? No matter how small? Um Emma, perhaps I can get you a cup of tea or something ? Yes.
Veronica, perhaps you can show me the way.
Of course.
The kitchen's through there.
DONOVAN: Thank you.
I appreciate it.
Hi, Emma.
I was just wondering if I could ask a few more questions.
If that's okay? Of course.
Is it just you and Sam? Yes.
Sam's dad died in a car accident when he was four.
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
Is there anybody new in Sam's life? - Or yours? - No.
No one.
I am very careful about that.
We live a very quiet life.
Why do you ask? It's this painting.
Do you have any idea who this is? No.
Uh It's just a painting of Sam's.
Did you ever talk to him about it? I don't understand.
Sam likes to paint.
VERONICA: He's good at it, too.
May I take a look? CHARLIE: Sure.
I haven't seen this one.
He mustn't have done it in class.
Class? I teach a weekend art class.
Sam's been coming for years.
DONOVAN: Okay, well if you think of anything further, please let us know.
Of course.
Anything at all.
I will.
Thank you.
Here, darling.
CHARLIE: Sam's mother is holding back on us.
- What makes you say that? - Well, showing her the painting, she seemed to recognize something about it.
So why didn't she say something? - Exactly.
- Guys! It's finally here! What's here? The new digital board! It finally arrived! It's going to completely revolutionize the way we work.
I mean it's going to be great! Here, check this out.
Oh no.
That's not that's not what you want.
No.
No no no no no.
One more time.
That's so funny how that happens, eh? Okay, one more.
I'm going to try again.
DONOVAN: Jesse.
Why don't we just do things the old fashioned way until you've worked the kinks out? That's yeah.
Probably a good idea.
Okay.
Look, I did a background check on everybody connected to Sam.
And so far, nothing jumps out as unusual or suspicious.
Well, I've got another name for you to check out.
Emma Hansen.
- Sam's mother? - Sam's mother.
Okay, sure.
Oh, by the way, Gus from Forensics wants to see you.
CHARLIE: Oh.
Alright.
Jesse, why don't you put this up on your board? JESSE: What's this? I think it's a picture of the kidnapper.
CHARLIE: Gus.
- Hey.
- Hey, Rex.
How are you doing, pal? GUS: He's still a bit confused.
- But who wouldn't be? Poor guy.
- Yeah.
Hey.
Did you get a DNA sample from that piece of cloth? Yeah, but there's no match in the system.
But I did find something interesting though.
That's the piece of cloth.
Just show it to Rex.
Here.
Smell it.
Sniff.
Here.
Come here, boy.
(REX SNIFFING) - (REX BARKING) - Hey hey! Rex! (REX BARKING) What's gotten into him? - That's how he reacts to the kidnapper's scent.
- Why would he do that? Because he's been so negatively imprinted with it.
The important thing is not only can Rex track the kidnapper's scent He'll bark at whatever he smells it on.
(REX BARKING) JAN: You can't just take Rex! He belongs to the Canine Unit.
CHARLIE: But he's an eyewitness who can identify the kidnapper.
JAN: He's not trained to perform those sorts of duties! - It's not protocol! - Well, screw protocol! - We're trying to bring a young kid home! - Okay.
Everybody just calm down.
Charlie, exactly what are you proposing? That Rex works with me.
- Works with you? How? - CHARLIE: Yes.
CHARLIE: I take Rex everywhere with me.
He can react to whatever the killer has touched.
A coat.
A car.
Joe.
Look, Rex could find something that we'd never even considered.
JAN: Have you ever even owned a dog? Jan, unfortunately, time isn't on our side.
We have everything to gain.
- Nothing to lose.
- (BANG) Yes.
There's a bigger problem.
What's that? When a canine loses the partner they've trained with, they often become unstable.
Overly aggressive.
Therefore, regulation suggests that we retire Rex.
Retire? Wait.
Do you mean put him down? JAN: There will be an assessment.
And then a final decision will be made.
CHARLIE: Joe! No! - (REX WHINES) - I'm not letting this happen.
JAN: It's not up to you.
When will this assessment take place? Within 48 hours.
CHARLIE: Renley.
You have to leave Rex with me.
At least until then.
Okay? He might be the only way we find Sam.
I'll see what I can do.
Guys.
I have something.
Turns out your hunch about Sam's mother was right.
- CHARLIE: What do you mean? - I found a photo of Emma Hansen.
That is not Sam's mother.
JESSE: That's correct.
See, whoever this woman claiming to be Sam's mom is, - it is not Emma Hansen.
- (REX WOOFS) - Are you sure? - JESSE: I'm positive.
Emma Hansen died of cancer eight years ago.
Then who the hell is this woman? (DRAMATIC PERCUSSION) SARAH: So, Sam's mom was living under a false name? - For years.
- Pulling that off must have taken a lot of work.
Social insurance numbers, health cards, passports, driver's licenses.
She had them all.
Why was this woman doing it? - Because, as it turns out - (CROWD CHATTER) she herself was a kidnapper.
CHARLIE: You lied to us.
Hmm? The real Emma Hansen is dead.
Your name is Lisa Crawford.
Your son's name is Sam Crawford.
And your husband, Henry Crawford, has a warrant out for you in Michigan for child abduction! - (REX WHINING) - It's okay, Rex.
He's going pretty hard on her.
He has to.
Every second counts in a kidnapping case.
- LISA: You don't understand anything.
- Then tell me the truth! I stole my son in a dead woman's name to get Sam away from that man.
You're telling me that you took your son to protect him from his father? Henry is violent.
He wasn't at first.
I thought things would change.
But it only got worse.
One day I came home and Sam was crying.
He had a black eye.
He was only four years old.
Check her story out.
Why didn't you tell me this before? I should have.
All I hoped was that you would find Sam before you figured out I don't have custody.
Is that Henry? Is that Sam's father? I thought Sam believed that his father was dead.
But he never stopped looking for us.
He sent messages to everyone who'd ever known me, - trying to find me.
- Hmm.
He got private detectives all over the US.
He even offered a reward for Sam's return.
A hundred thousand dollars.
Did Sam know about that? Maybe.
I saw a search for his father's name on his computer.
That is when I knew that I had to come clean about everything.
But I made him promise not to tell anyone.
I'm not sure he kept that promise.
Is this the dog whose partner was killed? His name is Rex.
I'm sorry, Rex.
I'm so sorry.
JESSE: This is Henry Crawford Lisa's estranged husband.
Six charges of assault in the States.
So she just took Sam and ran.
And Henry tried to track them down.
Well I'm not so sure about that.
The neighbour who saw the kidnapper said he was medium build.
But from this file, Henry is a tall man.
Well maybe someone else kidnapped Sam and tried to collect the $100,000 reward.
Hopefully that someone still has to deliver - Sam to his father.
- JESSE: How? I mean the airports and ferry terminals are completely under surveillance.
So whoever snatched Sam can't get out and Henry Crawford can't get in.
They must be making the exchange another way.
What else do we know about Henry? Well, he's a real outdoorsman.
He hunts, fishes.
Owns a truck, a boat.
Holds a pilot's license.
- A pilot's license? - Yeah, small planes.
Can't get into the airport.
Jesse, can you pull up a topographic map of the area the kidnapper ran away with Sam? Can I? Can you? Oh, now? Yeah, sure.
(JESSE TYPING) DONOVAN: Okay, those lakes are water access only and there's some cabins not too far away in the woods.
So the kidnapper holes up in one of these until things blow over.
Henry flies in with a floatplane and picks up Sam.
Jesses, contact these cabins and see if anyone's made any reservations in the last couple of weeks.
Keep a special eye out for anyone who's paid using US funds.
I'm on it.
Whoah, what's up with him? (REX BARKING) Looks like someone's hungry.
- Oh, right.
- (REX BARKING) - Yeah.
- (REX BARKING) Yeah, uh let me see.
Well, this is not the freshest, but Want some? (DONOVAN CHUCKLES) - CHARLIE: Make yourself at home! - JESSE: Charlie.
- Yeah.
- JESSE: I think I found the cabin.
Coffee break's over, Rex.
Back to work.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC) - (KNOCKING ON DOOR) - SJPD! We're coming in! All clear, Charlie! (REX BARKS) What is it, Rex? (REX BARKING) Food on the table is still warm.
So whoever it was, we just missed them.
Sam and his kidnapper.
Sam's clay figure.
Yeah, Rex found it.
He's pretty handy to have around.
I'm calling for a search team.
Wait, Joe.
Joe.
Joe, I think we've got one here.
Rex.
You smell someone you don't like, don't you? - (REX BARKS) - Yeah? Go.
Find it.
Apparently you need to know the magic word.
Search? - Rex track! - (REX WHINES) - Now what? - I guess we try and keep up.
(DRAMATIC PERCUSSION) (REX BARKS) (DRAMATIC MUSIC) (RUSHING WATER) (REX BARKING) Rex stop! Stay! Whoah whoah whoah! Just don't get close to that cliff! (REX BARKING) Oh yeah.
Pease tell me they did not go this way.
- Come on.
We're going around.
- (REX BARKING) Rex.
(REX WHINING) Rex, you're not seriously thinking what I think you're thinking.
- (REX BARKS) - Rex! No! Hey! Charlie! Stop! Hey! Charlie! No, you can't do that! - Rex could drown! - Yeah, but dogs are great Ahhhhh! swimmers.
Uhh I need a search and rescue team at my coordinates! Come on! Come on! You didn't tell me you could swim! (REX BARKS) Ahh.
Uhh.
Aghh! Yeah, don't worry pal.
Yeah.
We're going to find Sam and that person who killed your partner.
You and me.
Just next time, why don't you let me come up with the plan, huh? (CHARLIE SIGHS) SARAH: But Charlie, what about Sam? The drop? The river? How could he survive, unless ? Oh.
He never went over.
- It was a trap.
- Mm-hmm.
And Rex and I fell right into it.
Of course! The kidnapper knew you'd have his scent from the sleeve and would keep trying to track him.
So he left his scent trail right to the edge of the cliff to make it look like they'd both jumped off.
Only he doubled back over his trail and that gave him time to get away.
I wish that you were part of the team back then.
You might've saved us from a very chilly swim.
(SARAH LAUGHS) Okay, so you had the kidnapper on the run.
Yeah.
It wasn't looking good.
- Why, what happened? - It had gotten dark.
We were wet.
There was no leads.
And on top of all that, Joe was not very happy.
What you did was crazy! You could have gotten yourself killed jumping off that cliff! - It was his idea.
- (REX BARKS) No, I don't have another sandwich.
Oh, hey, did you have you heard back from Canine about his assessment? Yeah, I'm asking.
- I know.
- Yeah.
Yeah, they'll make a final decision tomorrow.
We can't let him be retired.
- I've got a couple of ideas.
- Just leave it with me.
But in the meantime Charlie, you go home.
- Get yourself some rest, okay? - (CHARLIE SIGHS) Hey.
That's an order.
(CHARLIE SIGHS) - CHARLIE: Hey.
- (REX BARKS) Rex.
What's wrong? Police dogs are supposed - to live with their partners.
- Yeah.
- Really? - Yeah.
I suppose we could find him a cage for the night.
Okay, this is it.
Make yourself at home.
I find the couch is pretty comfy.
What do you say I try and find us some food, huh? How do you feel about ordering pizza? (REX WHINES) You still miss your partner, huh? Yeah.
I know.
I know.
Sometimes, they go away.
(REX WHINES) It'll take a while to get over them.
Huh? Okay.
Okay, yeah.
Knock it off, pal.
Yeah.
It's gonna be okay.
- (REX BARKING) - JESSE: Oh, hey Rex! - How's it going, buddy? - Hi! CHARLIE: Hey, Jesse.
You're just the man I'm looking for.
Yeah.
How did it go last night? Uh Great! I found out that Rex likes pizza.
- (REX BARKS) - Yeah.
- He really likes pizza.
- Ah! Listen, I need to ask you a favour.
Yeah, sure.
What's up? Well, I realized last night that Rex can only track the kidnapper.
So if they do manage to get Sam to his father Then Rex won't be able to track Sam.
Yeah, so I need something with Sam's scent on it.
I can get it from his mother.
Can you watch him till I'm back? - Yeah yeah! For sure! - (REX WHINES) Yeah, he can hang out here with me and all the other cool kids.
- Right? - (REX BARKING) (JESSE LAUGHS) We'll have fun.
- Thanks, Jesse.
- We'll have fun, right? CROWD: Bring Sam home! Bring Sam home! - Bring Sam home! - Thanks for the T-shirt.
You'll find him.
Won't you? You and Rex? We're going to do everything we can.
CROWD: Bring Sam home! Bring Sam home! Bring Sam home! Bring Sam home! Hey, Jesse.
How did it go with Rex? - Oh yeah.
Great great.
- Oh good.
I thought it would.
- Hey! Whoa! - (REX BARKING) Rex! Easy! Easy! Whoa! - What what what's gotten into him? - I don't know.
(REX BARKING) - What's going on? - I don't know.
- Why is he acting like that? - I don't know! I don't know! - (REX BARKING) - I went to go pet him.
And then he - He just went crazy.
- (REX BARKING) It's like he'd smelled the kidnapper on me, or something.
Well how is that even possible? (REX BARKING) SARAH: You touched them! When you were leaving Sam's house! Going through that crowd, you touched the abductor! Yeah, we finally had a solid lead, but, my biggest question was why did they go to Lisa's house? This is footage a news team shot of you leaving.
Bring Sam home! Bring Sam home! CHARLIE: Who is that? The guy I just passed there? - (REWIND) - JESSE: Oh, that's Lisa's boss.
Runs a paper company.
Nothing more serious than a traffic ticket.
- CHARLIE: Can you go back a little? - (REWIND) Wait.
I touched that guy.
Who is that? I don't know.
I don't have anything on that guy.
Jesse, roll the footage ahead.
If this is our guy, I want to see what else he's up to.
Bring Sam home! Bring Sam home! Bring Sam home! CHARLIE: Is that Veronica Majors he's talking to? (REX WHINES) DONOVAN: Looks like they know each other.
Veronica ran an art class that Sam attended.
What are you thinking? What if Veronica asked Sam about the figure in the painting? Lisa made Sam promise not to tell anybody about the internet reward.
Veronica is the type of person that Sam would feel safe to share a secret with.
Veronica was in on it.
Yeah.
And she had help from this guy.
Whoever he is.
We need to stop Veronica before she takes off.
Find out who this guy is, Jesse.
Track him down.
- Yeah, on it.
- We're going to need a warrant - to search Veronica's house.
- I'm already ahead of you.
- Rex! Come! - (COMPUTER PINGS) - (REX BARKING) - Wait, guys, guys, guys.
Hold up.
I just got an alert on my computer.
I know where Veronica Majors is.
(OMINOUS MUSIC) DONOVAN: She's been shot.
Think Veronica had a falling out with her partner in crime? Yeah, that would be my bet.
The question now is where's he got Sam? (DRAMATIC PERCUSSION) So, this mystery man murdered Veronica.
Yeah.
But why would he do that? I mean I get the motive to keep all the money for himself, but why then? It would have been super risky.
We figured that the exchange was about to happen and he wanted to tie up all the loose ends.
Hmmm.
Okay, so you were running out of time and you had no idea how to find Sam.
- (REX BARKS) - Yeah.
It wasn't looking good, but, we knew we were close.
We just needed to pick up the trail again.
And how'd you do that? A little help from your predecessor in the Forensics Department.
GUS: The victim was shot at close range.
One shot to the chest.
There was no defensive wounds.
Suggests she was taken by surprise.
Maybe she trusted her killer.
You got a time of death? Uh The body is pretty warm.
The blood has barely congealed.
I'd say maybe half an hour ago.
Did you find anything else in the car? Yeah.
I found a suitcase in the trunk.
CHARLIE: Warm clothes.
A raincoat.
Looks like they were packed for inclement weather.
(REX SNIFFING) (REX BARKING) What have you got? You got something, Rex? (REX BARKING) Good find.
Did you smell that? Dimenhydrinate.
GUS: That's an anti-nauseant.
It's for motion sickness.
Or sea sickness, maybe? - Maybe they were taking Sam out by boat.
- (REX BARKING) Yeah.
But from where? So they've turned Veronica's house upside down - and they found nothing.
- (PHONE BUZZING) You got something Jesse? JESSE: Yeah, I did some digging into Veronica Majors.
Turns out her bank accounts are empty and credit cards are completely maxed out.
So she needed money.
JESSE: Yeah.
I also found a link to Henry's $100,000 reward on her IP.
Sounds like motive.
Hey, Jesse.
Did you find anything on that guy that we saw Veronica talking with on the video? JESSE: I did.
I did.
His name is Jackson Waters.
He's got a long record of assault, fraud, extortion.
The guy's a real charmer.
I mean, most of his victims are women he was romantically involved with.
So were he and Veronica a couple? JESSE: I did find some pictures of them on his social media.
How'd she get mixed up with a guy like that? Well, one of the conditions of his parole was that he had to undergo counseling, so, he decided to take art therapy.
Veronica's weekly art classes.
- I'll call you if anything else comes up.
- Thanks, Jesse.
Okay.
So, Jackson gets his claws into Veronica and she ends up deep in debt.
She's desperate for money and then Sam mentions his dad and the reward.
Mm-hmm.
Then Veronica goes to Jackson and they hatch a plan nut she has no idea that Jackson plans to kill her and keep all the money for himself.
Yeah, but why would Jackson - chance coming back to Sam's house? - I don't know.
- Maybe Rex has an answer.
- (REX BARKS) Veronica was my best friend.
She couldn't have been part of this.
There's little doubt that she was.
Also a man named Jackson Waters.
- Jackson? - CHARLIE: Uh-huh.
LINDA: That's her boyfriend.
I let those monsters take my son? Don't do that to yourself.
We're close to finding Sam but we need you to think.
Has Jackson been here the last few days? Just after you visited.
Okay.
Well, I'd like to have Rex take a look around.
Anything to help.
Alright, pal.
Do your thing.
Track.
(REX SNIFFING) (REX BARKING) What's in here? That's where I kept Sam's real passport.
It's empty.
Oh no.
If Jackson needs Sam's real passport in order to make this plan work that must mean they need to get him across the border.
Border Patrol would be looking for a young boy named Sam Hansen.
- (PHONE BUZZING) - Not Sam Crawford.
Talk to me, Jesse.
JESSE: I just found out that Jackson is staying in a house he inherited from his gran.
It's across the harbour in Fort Amherst.
Right by the pier.
Boats.
That's where they're making the exchange.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC) (SCREECHING TIRES) Hopefully, we're not too late.
Rex.
Rex, come here.
(REX SNIFFING) - (REX BARKS) - Track it! I'll follow Rex.
You look around.
- You got it.
- (COCKING GUN) (DRAMATIC MUSIC) (REX BARKS) - (REX BARKING) - Help! Shut up! Shut up and move! Let's go! SAM: Uhh! (REX BARKING) SJPD! Stop right there.
Stop right there! Hands where I can see them! That's it Rex, go! - CHARLIE: Stop right there! - SAM: Help! (GUNSHOT) (REX BARKING) (DRAMATIC MUSIC) JACKSON: Ughh! - (REX BARKING) - Ughhh.
Don't move! Sam, you okay? - Yeah.
- Get up! Hands behind your back! (REX WHIMPERS) Where's Henry Crawford? It was supposed to be so simple.
No one was supposed to get hurt.
You've got a lot of nerve saying that.
You abducted a boy! You killed a cop and your partner! If you've got a shred of decency, you're going to tell us exactly where we can find Sam's father.
(SIREN) He's in a boat offshore, waiting for me to bring him the kid.
You got coordinates for that boat? Yeah.
I'll contact the Coast Guard.
Let's go.
Hey, Sam.
He never stopped looking for me.
He saved me.
(REX WHINES) Sam! Mom! (SOFT MUSIC) Not a bad day's work, partner.
(REX BARKING) (CHARLIE SIGHS) It's okay to be a little nervous.
I get a little nervous about assessments too.
Yeah.
You did a great job, you know? I don't care what the decision is.
I'm not letting anything happen to you.
