Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency

Yes, I was awake.

Where are you? It's time.

I'm...

I'm on my way, is where I am,

and almost there already,

so everything's great.

Good morning, buttercup!

Where is my money?

Dorian!

Dorian! Dorian, stop! Stop!

Stop, stop, stop, stop!

Stop!

Where's my money!

I gave you your money, Dorian.

Where's the goddamn rent?

I paid you the rent, I paid you yesterday!

Don't tell me what you did or didn't do!

You don't know what happened yesterday,

- you're not a historian! - I'm just... okay...

Are you a historian?

- No, but... - No!

600 bucks, or I swear to god, I will kill you.

If you screw with me again...

Damn it.

What are you gonna do, you gonna call the cops?

Go ahead.

No, you won't. No, you won't.

You know why?

'Cause I got you,

I. Got. You.

Money!

I want my money!

Today! My 600 bucks!

The spring family is notoriously reclusive

Where's the goddamn rent?

My 600 bucks!

I swear to god, I will kill you!

Where's my money?

Are you a historian?

Mr. Palacios...

I need you to get up to 745...

Yes, I will, I just...

Welcome to the Perriman grand.

Allow us to help you with that.

If I could get my check a little early this month?

What? Why? Are you okay?

Yeah, I could just... Use the money.

Yeah, look, Todd, I need you to get up to 745 right away.

There's some kind of a drunk woman up there

acting crazy,

and do me a favor,

they've had a "do not disturb" since 2:00 P.M. yesterday.

You still have your master key?

No, I-i misplaced it.

Take mine.

745, and then the penthouse.

Okay, but then we can talk about the check?

Later, yes.

Later, hmm?

Okay.

...yeah, well, I'm here on assignment,

so just...

No, I was just...

Get out of the way.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Oh.

Do I have to leave?

Or could I just sit here for a second?

Take your time.

Can you just

hang out... with me?

For a second?

I hate men.

I'll be out of here in an hour.

Todd.

: I hate voice-mail!

Hey, sis, it's me.

Listen, I'm not ignoring you,

I just...

I don't know if I have the money right now,

and I know I promised you,

but there have been some...

Unforeseen circumstances.

I'm going to get past it, and I'm gonna get you the money,

and you'll be able to...

Time machine!

No, you lied to me.

And now you've screwed both of us.

No! Silence! No!

Don't you say a word. I don't want to hear...

Holy shit, this is when it happened. That means...

Come on!

: Todd?

Where the hell are you, Todd?

I... I don't know.

Have you checked out the penthouse?

I mean, I'm... I'm on my way.

I'm on my way.

Estevez.

Zimmerfield.

Missing persons.

Missing persons?

This is a homicide, or...

Something.

This homicide has possible ties to an ongoing...

Probable ties to an ongoing missing persons case...

Wait.

What do you mean "or something?"

It is strange in here.

What are those, are those burns?

The guy in the bed was torn in half.

The other guy

had his arm torn off.

There are bite marks on the ceiling.

Like... An animal, or a weapon?

There are multiple bite marks on the ceiling.

They say the noise only went on for 10 or so seconds.

Zim, what the hell does this in 10 seconds?

A man was bitten in half.

Bitten in half?

They say they got a witness.

Oh, yeah?

How big are his teeth?

When the key left your possession?

I'll be honest, it doesn't look great, Todd.

Late to work, late getting to the penthouse,

no key.

It all seems very, you know...

Confluent.

Yeah.

Adding up to me raising my eyebrows like...

Like that.

See, I can't do it. Only Zimmerfield can.

Only Zimmerfield.

Security tapes are badly scrambled

but we did manage to pull this.

Before you arrived in the penthouse.

Is that your key?

I don't think so.

Wait, is he wearing a gorilla mask?

You didn't...

see anything weird this morning,

did you, Mr. Brotzman?

Yes.

No.

M-maybe. I don't know.

You just gave every possible response to that question?

If I were you, I wouldn't leave town.

Hmm?

Is there...

is there any way you could get the security footage

for the 18th floor?

That the security footage was badly scrambled.

Any particular reason you want that, Todd?

Did something happen on the 18th floor?

No, I...

Okay, no.

You didn't touch anything

at the scene,

did you, Todd?

No.

Don't leave town.

I won't.

Seriously.

Don't leave town.

Okay.

Todd!

Hey, man, snap out of it.

Yeah, sorry, what?

They think it's connected to something bigger.

What, like the mob?

No.

While you were in there,

did you see any kind of an animal?

Animal?

They said they found paw prints.

Paw prints?

Like a dog?

No.

Also, you're fired.

Your involvement in all of this,

it's complicated.

You can't fire me.

I just opened a door.

Well, some doors shouldn't be opened.

Okay, okay, okay,

is there any way... Please-

you can give me my final check today,

well, it's a same-day termination,

same day? What do you mean same day?

Yes, today is the day that is the same,

today is the day that it happened.

Right, but any day that it would've happened

would've been the day it happened...

Yes, but it's a same-day termination.

It's always a day, right?
