The first 200 lines.
And who would you rather I be sleeping with?
Not some community college straggler
working on her word processing skills!
Her word processing skills are sublime.
Your secretary is 11 years old.
She knows all her vowels...
Any idiot can read a picture book!
You know what? I take back everything I said.
I would be more offended if you were sleeping with someone
who actually knew "Moby Dick" was about a whale
because then your cheating really would be about me
and not the "blink and you miss it"
party in your pants!
I'm getting out of here.
You're gonna need to double bag your stuff
because you didn't buy two-ply!
I bought what you tell me to buy!
You give up now?
- Take whatever you want. - Money.
I've got about 200 in my wallet.
The money.
I don't know what you're talking about.
- Come on. - I don't.
Okay.
Well...
No safe on the walls.
And there's no safe in the closet.
You want me to Marco Polo this?
Well, am I getting warm?
Who would've thunk it?
What's the combination?
15, 4, 36.
She's full of surprises, isn't she?
Len, no, no, no, no, honey!
Please.
There we go.
I missed you, too, baby.
It'll be smaller than your wedding with Angelyne.
- Second marriages usually are. - Third.
It was over in two weeks... a real Hollywood type of thing.
Marie did my makeup.
- I can see that. - Beautiful.
Just a few pointers.
Tali's new school doesn't allow them to wear makeup.
It doesn't matter. We're all on Zoom.
LaCroix.
Yeah, yeah, I'm on my way.
I want you to take it off.
I will. Just wait.
Here, pick a card.
She's a real natural.
- Dad. - Go on, pick a card.
- Here, I'll pick a card. - No, no, no.
I've seen this trick 100 times before.
Nobody's picking any cards.
Dad, come on.
I'm sorry.
We worked really hard on this trick.
Um, let me pick a card.
Forget it. You ruined it.
Come on, Tali. I'm sorry.
Just show me the deck, and I'll pick a card.
I have school.
You know, with the makeup, we were just having girl fun.
Angelyne never wore any makeup,
so it's just different.
Well, that's the thing about fatherhood...
Something new to lasso every day.
I got to get to work.
You guys are good with the Wi-Fi?
- The remote works? - Yeah, we're good.
Go catch your bad guy.
We've got a UFAP warrant for a John Doe
wanted for murder, robbery, and kidnapping
last night in Maplewood, New Jersey.
His Toyota Camry was found a few hours ago
- in a lot in lower Manhattan. - Making this case ours.
The kidnapped woman is Avery Garnier,
married to the murder victim Len,
a mortgage broker.
We're looking for any connection
between the Garniers and our John Doe
so that we can ID him.
She grew up in Kansas City, Missouri,
went to KU,
moved here about eight years ago
when she got married.
She volunteered at the local theater company.
Parents are deceased, both teachers.
No trust fund, no lotto winnings.
If it's a kidnap, then why kill the husband?
Who's gonna pay for the ransom?
Our John Doe took her for another reason.
Ten dollar reason?
Her social media's all about wine,
but she's not a "rosé all day" drinker.
Her latest post was about scoring
- a 2001 Bordeaux. - I prefer the '95.
All her wine's from the same shop.
Vino Village, my kind of place.
What about the husband?
He's been with the same company
his entire career.
Pulled down 225k.
There's nothing shiny about these two.
They look like an ordinary couple.
Avery Garnier.
What is it?
I don't know.
The sooner we ID John Doe,
the better our chances of finding Avery alive.
Clinton and Crosby, see what you can find
at Garnier's office.
Barnes and I will go to the crime scene.
Hana, run the serial number on that Hamilton in the safe.
No note.
Nobody wanted this safe found, that's for sure.
Or used... The carpet over it's worn.
Whatever our John Doe got out of the safe,
it had been in there for years.
It isn't counterfeit, so why would he leave
a $10 bill for us?
Well, maybe there's something in the number ten.
We all have ten fingers, ten toes.
- There's ten commandments. - And the tenth one is?
- Thou shalt not covet. - Thou shalt not covet.
Did our John Doe covet Avery?
Could explain why he didn't kill her.
Semicolon.
The end of one chapter
and then the beginning of the next.
We need to find out when Avery got this tattoo.
Here are Len's accounts from the past year or so.
No external transfers?
Could we get a printout of this?
Sure.
Did you handle his cash deposits?
The only time cash was on the table
was when Champagne Girls in Hackensack
tried to pay down a point before closing.
Len wouldn't take the bribe. He was a real ethical guy.
Tell us more about him.
On Tuesday, he told me he loved me.
So he's an ethical guy cheating on his wife?
He said they were more like roommates.
Roommates who hated each other.
Thanks for your time.
Avery said theater was her refuge.
She worked on every production here.
I guess things were sort of rotten
in the Denmark of her marriage.
Her husband was having an affair.
I didn't know that.
She's very private.
- Her tattoo? - The semicolon.
Cool, isn't it?
Do you know when Avery got it?
I always assumed it was around the time
she moved here from Florida.
Florida?
I thought she grew up in Kansas.
That's not what she told me.
Her real name is Elyse Sidchuck.
I'm gonna screen share with you.
She was placed in witness protection
in 2003.
The Marshall’s gave her new ID and enough cash
to start over in Kansas.
Was she a witness, an informant?
She was a...
- What's the problem here? - Must be on DC's end.
Our up time’s great.
She was a hostage during a bank heist in 2002.
She was the best case the prosecutors had
against the perpetrator.
They must have wanted this guy badly.
He shot and killed an off-duty police officer
as he fled the bank. He's still at large.
Name's Maurice Hewitt.
Avery's the hostage from the Banar Bank heist?
She was...
Well, that's her.
She looks different now, but that's her.
How do you know so much about a bank robbery
in 2002?
I was there.
It was a Tuesday just after lunch
when Hewitt entered the bank.
Avery was waiting in line for a cashier's check
when he grabbed her.
Her purse falls to the floor.
He orders everyone to the ground,
calls for the manager to open the vault,
gives Avery a plastic bag, and keeps his gun on her
as she follows the manager into the vault.
She returns with $114,000.
Hewitt grabs the money, drags her to the entrance,
and he stops when he sees someone...
When he sees me.
He hauls her to the back. We come in the front.
