Garage Sale Mystery: The Beach Murder

Locals only, bud.

No one owns the ocean.

True, that.

Nice car, man!

Man...

would you look at that.

Those little punks?

Here, let me help you clean this.

Don't.

Look, I'm just trying to help you out here--

you touch the car, and it's on.

All right, I'm sorry.

Hey, you, um,

you should probably know that this...

that this spot here, it's... it's dangerous.

The rocks are right under the surface.

Hell, you might end up getting hurt?

Thanks for the advice.

You should take it.

They're beautiful, aren't they?

They're a lot like ones we have.

Supposed to be one of a kind.

They were a wedding gift,

years ago.

These are ours.

My wife must have brought them in.

What is she doing?

I don't know.

She wants a divorce.

These were a wedding gift.

That's the only thing that makes sense.

I guess they're yours now.

Well, someone has put a deposit down,

so, technically, the new buyer owns them.

Fine.

Two can play this.

But do me a favor,

call whoever bought them.

These have sentimental value to me.

I want them back.

Of course.

Thank you.

It's not just e-sports, it's professional e-sports.

You get paid for playing video games?

Yeah.

Yeah, they're live-streaming

the entire championship this year...

dude...

she totally smiled at you.

Don't even think about it.

She's, like--

out of our league.

Dream on.

I heard she's going to be an actress.

She's drama club.

You?

You're computer club.

Swans fly with swans.

Ducks fly with ducks, right?

These funeral fans are fabulous.

1930's?

1920's, complete collection from a Kansas funeral home.

$100 for the whole set.

this one's a little frayed,

and it's torn there...

you're asking 40 for this?

That's pretty optimistic.

What do you want to pay?

Less.

30.

I can't give you more than 20.

You are tough.

Fine.

20. - Done.

Remind me,

when was the last time somebody came in

looking for a surfboard?

This isn't going to the store.

Anne Winters' husband, Steve,

collects these old surfboards.

Would he want one like that?

It looks pretty beat up.

Hannah and I were watching "gidget"

the other night,

and moondoggie had a surfboard

just like this one.

I already texted Anne a picture,

and she offered $100.

And you paid...?

20.

Nice work, partner.

Now...

how am I going to get this in the car?

Okay, watch your step.

Where would you like this?

On the table is perfect.

What happened to Steve's car?

I'll let Steve explain.

He was out surfing this morning.

Ooh, surfing?

A little cold for that, isn't it?

Wetsuits.

They go out year 'round.

It's crazy.

I'll let him know the board's here.

Wow, wow, wow!

Do you know what this is?

It looked like the one in "gidget."

Same maker.

This is an original velzy.

Too cool. Thank you, Jenn.

Well, it had your name written all over it.

Hey, what happened to your car?

Young punk surfers,

they don't know any better.

They get territorial over their favorite spots.

I don't want you going out there again.

They're just lucky I didn't catch them.

Well, I'm glad you didn't.

Hey...

are you and Jason doing anything Saturday night?

No.

...and it fulfills my science requirement.

It sounds interesting.

Volcanoes, too?

Yeah. All natural disasters.

We just studied Krakatoa.

Volcanoes are cool.

Actually, they're hot.

Or not.

Dormant is cool.

Only at the surface.

Logan, are you doing a project

for computer club this year?

Actually, um, I was thinking

about going out for my school play,

so... that'll be kind of fun.

What's the play?

It's, "Romeo and Juliet."

I haven't read it before,

but I heard Shakespeare is pretty good,

generally.

Why would Logan be trying out

for the school play?

And Shakespeare?

I'm not sure.

I found out

it's a contemporary version,

so there's that.

Maybe he inherited my acting skills.

When were you an actor?

Grade six.

Cinderella. I was "Prince Charming".

Of course you were.

I still remember my lines.

You want to hear them?

"The shoe fits! The shoe fits!

"We shall be married,

and you will be my Queen."

Sounds like something you once told me.

And it worked.

Well, "Prince Charming",

I have some shelves that need to go up at the store.

And we have dinner plans

on Saturday.

As you wish.

Long live the Queen.

So, who legally owns them?

You do.

You bought them from the owner.

Doesn't the husband own them, too?

He is. She is.

They both are.

You know, either can legally sell them.

The husband wants to buy them back.

He says they have sentimental value.

Sounds like he doesn't want to get a divorce.

Whatcha doing?

I can't make any sense of this Shakespeare stuff,

it's like french or something.

I thought you were doing a modern language version.

No, we haven't got our copies yet.

I went online and looked at this old film,

and... the sword fighting was cool.

The rest was pretty sappy.

So, why the sudden interest in drama?

I don't know...

I just thought it would look good

on my college application, you know?

You are such a little liar.

Who is she?

I don't know what you mean.

We can talk when you're ready.

Hey, sweetie,

which ones?

It's casual, you can wear your jeans.

Love it.

So, how do you know these people?

Anne comes in the store a lot.

She loves antiques.
