Sally sells seashells by the seashore.
How's that?
Wait, you're doing a tongue twister
for the talent show?
- Good luck. - It's a sound check, Jin.
I knew that.
Kumu, I think it sounds great,
but to really test the sound system,
I think we're gonna have to hear a little bit of your act.
- Ooh. - Nice try, Thomas.
But you'll have to wait till tonight like everyone else.
Guys.
- Suzy texted. - Ooh.
Oh, really? What did she say?
Wait, wait. Rick's love life is so bad right now
that we're celebrating girls' texts?
Whoa, take it easy.
He's been giving Suzy a little space
since she left for San Diego.
Thank you, Theodore. I just wanted to, you know,
let her focus on her artist residency.
We've been texting, but haven't really connected in a while.
So, what did she text?
"Hiii." Three I's.
"FaceTime tonight?"
Uh, three I's is a good sign.
Yeah, and a planned FaceTime, also nice.
Well, I don't want to read too much into it,
but I know you're all invested,
so I'll be sure to keep you up to date.
- Great. - All right.
W-Wait! Before you guys go, since I have you here,
I wanted to ask you guys something.
Please, grab a seat.
Here we go.
Hi.
Hi. Uh, I'm Jin.
Welcome, investors.
I am seeking
a $5,000 investment for ten percent
of my new company Jin-Dog,
the premier dog-walking app on the island.
Question.
Yes, the good-looking investor in the front row.
There's nothing
proprietary about dog walking.
So with tons of dog walkers on Oahu,
what makes your business special?
That's a very good question.
Well, what I can say is that,
out of all the dog walkers on the island,
I one hundred percent want to make more money than them.
Oh, a business
that makes money, ah, now that's a business plan.
Thank you, Rick.
Uh, no, Jin, I think what he meant
is that without a proper business plan,
it will be difficult for you to attract actual investors.
Yeah, u-um, actually, I'm struggling financially,
and I've had a hard time because my wife left.
Jin, you've never been married.
Yeah, I know that, but I really do need money,
so I need to create a sob story
to pitch it to the new investors.
All right, let me, uh,
confer with my associates here.
What do you guys think?
Well, after careful consideration,
I regret to inform you we are not going to invest.
Oh. That's a little melodramatic with the rejection,
- but I understand. - No, listen, Jin.
Whilst we're not going to be investing,
we do believe in you, so I will download the Jin-Dog app
and hire you.
I mean, the lads could use an outing today.
Yes! You will be my first customer,
and I would love to spend the day with Zeus and Poseidon.
It's Zeus and Apollo, man.
Yeah, I know that. Apollo and I are best friends.
Jin, just please don't make me regret it, all right?
Okay.
We got to get going and meet the client.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
Jin, meet me at Robin's Nest.
I'll go over all the details about the lads with you.
Sounds good. I won't let you down.
Welcome.
You must be Thomas and Juliet.
Thank you for coming on such short notice.
Of course, Sister.
- Very nice to meet you. - Father Tulua is away
at a conference, and when something urgent came up,
he said I'd be in good hands with you.
Oh, that's always nice to hear.
Um, why don't you tell us how we can help you?
For months, our church has been trying
to raise funds for a life-saving medical procedure
needed by one of our parishioners,
Sierra.
She's a 15-year-old girl with a rare condition
called mitochondrial depletion syndrome.
I've never heard of this syndrome.
How bad is her condition currently?
She's getting by for now, but it won't be long
before she starts losing basic motor skills like talking,
or even eating.
And the disorder only worsens from there.
That must be awful for Sierra and her family.
Yes, but there's hope.
Treatment is available,
but it's on the mainland and it's very expensive.
Well, it's a worthy cause.
I-I don't have much, but I'd love to make a donation.
Yeah, as would I.
Thank you, but there's no need.
We actually surpassed our goal of $80,000
just this morning.
That's actually why I called you.
I found this next to the fundraiser display
this morning.
There was no name attached.
No note. Nothing.
It's over $100,000.
We get anonymous donations all the time,
but never this much.
And when I started to count the money...
...I found this.
It's got blood on it.
This money could save Sierra's life,
but we don't know if it was stolen,
or if someone was hurt over it.
I've been praying about it all morning and...
We'd just like to know where it came from
before we decide what we should do with it.
Of course. We saw a security camera
at the front of the church.
It captured the donor dropping off the bag,
but unfortunately, you can't make out his face.
I wish I had something more for you to go on.
Well, the security footage may still prove useful,
and there's the bag of cash.
We have actually solved cases with less.
I've heard.
Now, I don't want to rush you,
but with a disease like Sierra's, every day matters.
No, we understand, Sister.
And trust us, we're gonna do our best to figure this out
and get Sierra that treatment as soon as possible.
Just dropped off the bills with Noelani for analysis.
Any luck with the security footage?
Well, Sister Adina was right.
We can't see the face of the mystery donor,
but we do know that he arrived
at 5:07 a.m. and can approximate his height at six-one.
- Hi. - Hey.
Higgins, I got your text,
and trust me, the lads and I are having a grand old time.
Check this out.
Zeus and Apollo, sit.
Okay. Hey, boys?
Focus, look. All right, sit.
Sit.
Stand.
Good boys.
Wow, Jin, you really are a natural.
I was actually texting you about something else.
We're investigating a bag of cash
that was dropped anonymously at a church this morning.
Some of the stacks of bills had fresh blood on them.
It wasn't me.
Uh, Jin, you're not a suspect.
- Oh. - We just want your opinion.
Uh, anything about this stand out to you?
Well, are you asking me as a former cash cleaner
or a former criminal?
Mm, whatever produces a lead.
Okay.
The cash was laundered by Dolla Bill Tellez.
Well. That's a colorful nickname.
Who is he?
He's one of the biggest money launderers on the island.
He runs his operation
out of a dry cleaner.
How do you know it's him?
Because those are definitely his laundry bags.
And the clients put the cash in those bags.
And I can give you the address.
Oh, that is very helpful, Jin.
Yes, thanks, Jin. Now, you boys have a good day.
Lads, sit.
Really?
Aloha. How can I help you?
We're here about a pickup. You have the ticket number?
Uh, I'll bring it up. Do you have Wi-Fi?
Yeah.
Great.
You know, actually, maybe it-it's better
to just describe what was dropped off.
It was about a $100,000 cash in a white bag
very similar to the ones
