A Canadiens supporter, over the poor play of his team.
A confrontation begins.
A death sentence.
A decade ago. Yet, the front door is secured
A few minutes ago,
A few of 'em show up on my lot
A man in Riverdale was murdered
A man is watching a hockey game in a bar in Harlem.
A man is watching a hockey game in a bar in Harlem.
A real shame, what happened to him.
A sniper outside will blow your head off.
A warehouse security guard named Connor Brunelle.
About what happened to your son,
Abraham Lincoln's birthday.
According to the DMV,
Afraid not.
After a few months, they kicked him out.
After that, I'd get messages
After that, the attacker can't be prosecuted.
After the statute of limitations has expired.
Agent McNally of the NSA. Shh.
Alcohol is consumed, threats are made.
All by himself.
All in the name of homeland security. Hmm.
All right, everybody, get your hands up!
All right, so why all the secrecy in the messages?
All right, well, what about your husband?
All right...
Alongside drugs and guns. I know.
Also, there were no trials in New York on February 12.
Ammo for everyone in the diner?
And a stolen wheel of priceless cheese.
And all the courthouses are closed.
And did nothing!
And do you know why?
And for the last five years,
And from there, it should be...
And good riddance, as far as I'm concerned.
And half a dozen other guys
And if you don't...
And if you're still unclear about the concept
And Jack Brunelle hasn't fired a shot.
And Joan Watson, or he was gonna start shooting people.
And no one's making any progress.
And say that you got some help from Everyone.
And tell me that I got to let them use my trucks
And that was that. I got rid of my tat, and I joined up
And that's gonna change real quick.
And the holding capacity of a dozen trucks,
And their fleet of drones.
And then disappear.
And then heroin.
And there are four Arecont Vision Dome Cameras
And they told us it was over, all right?
And those are barrels, right?
And violating federal customs laws.
And was dead less than a year later.
And was working at a warehouse in Red Hook
And watch the NYPD stomp a mudhole in those boys.
And we thought they were using it as as a gang front.
And we'll tell the D.A. how helpful you were
And what end is that?
And when he finally regained consciousness,
And who is he?
And yet I find myself drawn to this case
And you are?
And you drove back on Saturday.
And you think that someone is the Shoreline 99s.
And yours is... it's been lasered off,
Answer to your question,
Any idea what's inside 'em?
Apparently, you can't, either.
Are those boats?
Arguing a case there today, according to his Twitter feed.
Around the perimeter.
Arresting Frank Trimble for his assault on Connor Brunelle,
As are the lives of 20 other people.
As part of a murder investigation.
As part of a smuggling plot by a gang called the Shoreline 99s.
As well as a number of other places, I'm sure.
As well as two bouncers, a bartender, and a stray beagle
Assault, for example.
At a Montreal Canadiens playoff game
At least two.
At some pretty serious jail time.
At the Department of Corrections this morning.
At the end of the confrontation,
At the mecca of French Canadian hockey.
At the time of the attack.
At your stash house in Queens.
ATF agents found 20 tons of cocaine
ATF agents found 20 tons of cocaine
Beating up a bar all by himself is true.
Because it's across the street from the place
Before I left their building.
Before the statute of limitations expires.
Behind bars will not.
Best part is,
Between Connor and a Dario Canales.
Both streets in Brooklyn.
Building ain't there no more.
But a guy can hope, right?
But as of this morning, you can consider it defeated.
But doesn't look like anybody on the inside's noticed yet.
But doesn't look like Detective Andrews
But I didn't attack him.
But I sure as hell brought enough for him.
But I'm afraid human nature hasn't changed
But I'm afraid it isn't today.
But I'm sorry,
But I'm telling you right now I'm not your guy.
But it also punishes others because they're unable to sell
But it's possible you saw some evidence lying around.
But look, I was 16 years old, all right? I...
But that does not earn him
But the police treated it like
But the statute of limitations has expired. It's over.
But Watson and I are struggling to solve
But we're gonna find out,
But we're smack in the middle of something.
But you already know that, Mr. Trimble.
But you know...
But you still have the, uh, scar, so...
By boat, into New York.
By Detective Donald Andrews in the 107th precinct.
By phone.
Called “Santo Matón”,
Can you confirm that Connor would have been working
Can't exactly go walking into gang territory
Can't sleep?
Check my credit card statements.
City's many pancake dispensaries,
Cocaine?
Come here.
Connor had a hat with that written on it.
Connor needs your talents.
Connor was lying
Connor was murdered.
Connor was too embarrassed to tell anyone.
Could be anything.
Could you be of assistance?
Could you have your son maybe wait outside?
Crescent Moon Cafe in Greenpoint.
Dario was married.
Did this bruiser have a name?
Did you have to find a replacement that night?
Didn't ruffle any feathers.
Didn't see anything out of place.
Do what?
Do you have any idea what it's like to lose a child?
Do you really think that Connor would want you
Dodging bullets than we are selling coke.
Does that mean I'm gonna die soon?
Does, however, have a silver lining...?
Doesn't look like you've been treating it, either.
Doesn't matter what I think. Armed standoffs have a habit
Don't do that.
Don't have time for good ideas.
Don't you think?
Don't! Please!
Donald Andrews.
During my first year as a detective,
Emphasis on the “Killer.” Those guys are nuts, man.
Even if I wanted to find them, I wouldn't know where to look.
Even if you found the person who assaulted your son,
Even the most fanciful legends begin as a small grain of truth.
Every morning since Connor passed away,
Everyone?
Exactly.
Except he was attacked just after it happened,
Excuse me. Hey, Sherlock.
Failing tests.
Felt like living in a war zone.
Finally dug up the original paperwork
Five years ago is still active for exactly that amount of time.
Five years ago,
Five years ago, the Shoreline 99s smuggled a load
For the assault you committed against Connor Brunelle
For the time that you're away.
For the uniquely challenging foe it presents.
Found plenty more barrels, but not much else.
Fragment of the thousands of hours
Frank Trimble's hands. Frank is our culprit.
From committing a crime, leaving the country,
From shooting a diner full of people.
From the assault to his death,
From the Shoreline 99s?
From what I remember, Santo Matón was winning.
From year to year.
From your days as a member of the Shoreline 99s.
Get 'em up! Get your hands up!
Get 'em up! I said get 'em up!
Get in.
Get me a sniper.
Get on the ground.
Give you till midnight, right?
Go.
Good luck finding a second at the eleventh hour.
Good night, Sherlock.
Good night, Watson.
Got to think she's telling the truth.
Grimwald Partners, Hardcastle Beam,
Gross!
Groveton Cemetery.
Guilty of being a bad cop.
Guy didn't want a bunch of thugs being able to ID him
Guy's name is Jack Brunelle.
Half hour ago, a man with a shotgun walked in
Hands on the counter.
Hard enough finding one guy to do the job.
Has been for a decade now.
Have led us directly to our culprit.
Have you heard of tolling, Mr. Trimble?
He couldn't keep up with the work.
He died from an overdose less than a year later.
He died in a car crash about a year ago.
He doesn't want us dead.
He had all the details figured out.
He has been since New York passed
He just needed a bunch of guys to pull off the heist.
He never told you about that job,
He owed me a favor, I helped untangle a rather ugly incident
He owed me a favor, I helped untangle a rather ugly incident
He specializes in Mohs micrographic surgery.
He told the hostage negotiator
He told us this one story where, supposedly,
He wanted to talk to Sherlock Holmes
He wants us working.
He was a bruiser.
He was addicted to painkillers, right?
He was the overnight security guard.
He was working here at the time of his assault.
He'll just demand that we go in.
He's a budding computer scientist.
He's asked for our help many times.
He's at the New York County Supreme Court,
He's free.
He's got 20 hostages.
He's had ample opportunity.
He's helping me evaluate the artificial intelligence
He's not innocent!
He's not. I'm referring to time itself.
He's the detective who caught my son's case five years ago
He's the one who assaulted Connor Brunelle.
Hear.. what?
Helena Blavatsky.
Here's what I don't get.
Hey, Captain.
Hey.
Hey. August 23, 2009.
Hi, how can I help you?
His father didn't know. Nobody knew.
Hmm.
Hmm.
Hmm.
Hmm. So, he was assaulted
Hold the entry.
How are we going to arrest Frank Trimble?
How did it go with CSU?
How is Frank Trimble a “uniquely challenging foe”?
However angry that you are
However this thing turns out, Ramesh can help you.
Hoyt Trial, February 12, 9:00”.
I am really sorry...
I can only apply my talents where they are most needed.
I can open the cash register.
I caught a couple gang shootings that went down
I count a dozen tractor trailers.
I did and we shall.
I didn't know where they went or what they were used for.
I don't know if you're actually gonna kill anybody.
I don't know.
I don't plan to kill all the hostages if your partner fails.
I don't want money
I doubt there's much here that's gonna help us.
I even posted online.
I gave you plenty of time.
I guarantee you the answer would be yes.
I guess he got tired of being polite about it.
I had enough of his excuses for one lifetime.
I hate to cast judgment on a brother in blue,
I have photos, too.
I have scaled an unscalable peak.
I just did what I was told so I didn't get hurt.
I just plan to kill him.
I just want you to know that if you tell me
I know it gets better with time.
I know nothing's happened yet, Tommy.
I know you're busy, but it would only
I loved him.
I mean, mostly. But you know, five years ago,
I mean, you could shave your own head,
I need your talents.
I only pay an overnight guard
I poked around a little inside,
I really am.
I receive many inquiries like yours.
I remember, he told me I owed him money,
I require her counsel.
I send a team in, we're all safe at home inside an hour.
I stopped hearing from them
I suspect Connor and Dario were lovers.
I suspect the affair ended poorly.
I think the purpose of Connor's assault
I think they might be using that place.
I think Watson's life is at stake,
I thought it was a law firm.
I told you I was on vacation in Aruba when it happened.
I told you last night, as adversaries go,
I tried to say no, they threatened to kill me.
I waited on you.
I wake up and I wish it was me instead of him.
I was hoping he could help identify my son's attacker.
I was hoping he could help me with a case
I was seeing Connor,
I was wondering if the Shoreline 99s' vanishing act
I wasn't involved in any smuggling plot.
I wish I could.
I wrote letters. I printed flyers.
I'd love nothing more than to sit back
I'll answer your questions all day long,
I'll call you back.
I'll check in with you
I'll keep her close to me.
I'll send patrol over there, see if we can get the name
I'll start shooting.
I'm doing exactly what I said I was gonna do.
I'm gonna take a wild guess,
I'm hoping this will give me
I'm Jack Brunelle.
I'm looking for Sherlock Holmes.
I'm not a threat.
I'm not asking you
I'm not gonna pretend I know
I'm not treating my skin cancer.
I'm not your friend.
I'm sure people would have figured it out soon enough,
I'm the guy who's a half a day away
I'm told you're looking for us.
I've been around plenty of people who have.
I've been loyal ever since.
I've been trying to get you to help me for years.
I've spent hundreds of hours
If Brunelle doesn't have a reason
If Brunelle wanted to kill us,
If Dario was unhappy about the breakup,
If he's got priors, it could be decades.
If I can identify a batch of syrup from one of the...
If I don't deliver,
If Shoreline 99 is using this spot as a front,
If that's how it went down in this case,
If they would die in place of a daughter or a son,
If we don't solve this case?
If you ask any parent
If you don't deliver.
If you take another step,
In a Californian warehouse.
In a hospital bed, half dead,
In a ski mask outside a deli in Queens.
In Aruba when it happened.
In Canada, which means you crossed an international border
In Kentucky v. King grants us probable cause
In other words, you're under arrest.
In saving the lives of 20 people.
In the area with a fleet
In the neighborhood around our company.
In this diner.
In which case the clock stops
In your neighborhood.
Including Terrell Martin's silent partner.
Interesting move for a group that dealt in cocaine.
Involving Belgium, the Dalai Lama,
Is he really gonna shoot 20 people
Is it just me, Detective Bell, or do you hear that?
Is it okay if I make some coffee?
Is that it?
Is that why you're taking this risk?
It doesn't matter anymore!
It has a woody, vanilla essence, with a hint
It is Montreal's Canadiens against New York's Rangers.
It is, but I was on vacation
It made it impossible to see each other.
It was just another mugging.
It will be because she stays.
It's 10:30,
It's 12:05.
It's a legal term.
It's a marker for basal cell carcinoma.
It's a nod to the intersection in Queens
It's all “Shoot first, ask questions never” with them.
It's an advanced technique
It's because it's easier.
It's coming from inside that building.
It's easier to die than it is to be left behind.
It's five after 8:00.
It's just that the statute of limitations
It's maple syrup.
It's New York from above.
It's not because of honor,
It's past midnight. You failed.
It's Sherlock.
It's ten minutes past the deadline
It's too big for the closet.
It's undefeated.
Jack Brunelle's clock is ticking.
Jack, stop!
Jack, what are you doing?
January 29, 2012.
Just as a means to an end.
Just hours before his shift was due to start.
Just in case something went wrong.
Just like that.
Just past Brinkerhoff.
Knew how to make sure he didn't
Knew where to get the syrup, how to get the boats,
Landing that big score allowed them to cash out and move on?
Law school didn't work out,
Let me guess, you're already two steps ahead of me.
Let's get you on the phone first.
Let's go.
Like, four bouncers, two Rottweilers,
Listen, Jack.
Long and bumpy history with them,
Long way to go to hire a couple of detectives,
Look at these.
Lost much sleep on this one.
Make sure she doesn't miss a call.
Make sure teenagers don't vandalize it,
Manager says she hasn't seen him in years.
Maple syrup. I had an idea.
Marcus!
Mason is not my offspring
May I?
Maybe he did, too.
Maybe he goes easy on you when the time comes.
Maybe two years ago.
Meet him where?
Midway through, three Ranger fans start mocking our man,
Might be a good place to start.
Might give you a view into the diner.
Mm hmm. This is the warehouse
Mm, you know, Linden and Hoyt are
Modulates production of the stuff.
Morgan and Holt.
Morgan and Holt.
Mr. Brunelle, I admire your persistence,
Mr. Brunelle, I understand your dilemma.
Mr. Brunelle, it's over. We've solved your case.
Mr. Brunelle, maybe you can come back another time?
Mr. Brunelle, yes.
Mr. Brunelle, your son failed out of law school
Mr. Brunelle? By way of an update,
Mr. Canales appears to be a lawyer of some kind.
Mr. Canales, you're a lawyer.
Mr. Sherlock Holmes.
My ascent, however,
My colleague and I,
My name's Jack Brunelle
My son was assaulted in January of 2012,
My son was attacked exactly five years ago today.
New York is one of seven states
No more gang wars, no more shootings.
No more Shoreline 99s.
No point in writing that down, man.
No, a friend of his. This guy, you know,
No, man. They just cut us loose. All right?
No.
No. You go.
Nobody does.
None of it made a difference.
Not a whole lot of product coming through the door.
Not really.
Nothing to hide. They're not using that place.
Now you gonna wait on me.
Now, at first glance, the messages,
Now, given the sheer number of barrels,
Now, let's get on with it.
Now, these quotas have no doubt helped some artisans,
Now, you can draw a straight line
Now, you don't have enough ammunition
Obviously, that's what the Shoreline 99s' leadership
Of covert surveillance footage recorded by the FBI
Of crushed leaves.
Of ending unpredictably.
Of ending unpredictably.
Of it varies wildly
Of killing everyone here.
Of maple syrup into New York.
Of Quebec Maple Syrup Producers
Of smuggled goods on record is the 1989 Sylmar bust.
Of some businesses from that area.
Of that doll,
Of the first metacarpophalangeal joint here.
Of those specific vehicles.
Of tolling, don't worry, because the 20 odd years
Of whoever's delivering their syrup.
Of your personal life, I discovered
Oh, I'm truly sorry.
Oh, I'm, uh, reexamining the paperwork
Oh, my God.
Oh, one more thing.
Oh, wait. Holmes, you...
Oh. As rivals go,
Okay, look...
Okay, this is your last chance...
Okay? Yes.
On a particular night five years ago.
On Connor Brunelle's assault.
On his assault runs out at midnight.
On my son's case is getting close,
On Shoreline 99 turf.
On spec last night, but when we are finished
On the Connor Brunelle assault.
On those guys in Harlem after the bar fight
On top of that,
Once we've paid a visit to Morgan and Holt.
One day, they were crawling all over our turf,
One night, around ten years back,
One of them is a friend of mine.
Or as we know him better, Frank bloody Trimble.
Or at least some version of it. I began exploring the notion
Or duty,
Or I'm gonna shoot all of these people.
Or parental responsibility.
Our Canadiens fan battles all three Ranger enthusiasts,
Over a priceless Mongolian fossil.
Over the drug game in South Queens.
Part of your plan involved assaulting
Partners in everything, I suppose, Watson.
Perhaps the two events are related.
Please.
Poof, gone.
Public records indicate that building was foreclosed on
Pull the biggest smuggling caper in American history
Put the gun down.
Ramesh is a friend from med school.
Retired NYPD.
Right after this smuggling thing you're talking about.
Said he knew where to find the guy,
Said he used to come here all the time.
Said they knew where I lived.
Same distance between the major and minor knuckles, here.
Same irregular shape
Same length of the fourth metacarpal, here.
Santo Matón would be
Santo Matón. Yeah. Killer Saint.
Saying to leave keys in certain vehicles.
Says he absolutely needs to talk to you.
Says the photographs you're holding.
Says who?
See if he can make contact with the Nicaraguans.
Several of the belligerents were arrested,
She was right, and thankfully so, as her words
Sherlock, Joan.
Sherlock, that was the captain who called.
Sherlock, you're on speaker.
Shipping barges.
Shoreline 99 does control.
Should give you plenty of time to work it out.
Show up for work.
Signing trucks in and out, scheduling maintenance.
Since your last visit.
Sit.
Skin cancer.
So he brought it to Terrell.
So he took some job at a warehouse in Red Hook.
So he wanted to meet up.
So he's gonna get the surgery he needs.
So here's the deal.
So it ends up getting sold on the black market
So it's safe to assume, then,
So Terrell Martin is the only person
So that means the statute of limitations
So the Canadiens play
So the Shoreline 99s
So there's a dozen Kenworth T440 trucks
So what happened?
So when our leader, Terrell, said he had a way to get out,
So where is Terrell now?
So why do I have to do it? Mm...
So yes, as I was looking through the details
So you think they were hunted to extinction?
So, are we doing this?
So, how long have you been sick, Jack?
So, I'm gonna read you the names
So, no.
So, ten of us pulled the heist,
So, the assault on Connor Brunelle
So, what do you do for work?
So, you said that they used to run cocaine
So, you tell me, Joan,
So?
So?
Some coffee, maybe a bathroom break.
Some insight as to why someone
Some of Connor's old things.
Some tech savvy friends of mine found this footage
Someone has gone to a lot of bother
Started missing classes,
Statute of limitations has expired.
Sticking their noses where they don't belong,
Still, we're kind of in the middle of something right now.
Stop me if anything sounds familiar.
Stop moving, Jack.
Stop telling me what I'm thinking!
Stop, please. Don't hurt anyone
Strangled to death and dumped in a river.
Such as?
Syrup never goes bad.
Take a few minutes.
Take a few minutes.
Tell us more about this warehouse where he worked.
Terrell asked Reggie to meet him at this donut shop,
Terrell holds his meetings here
Terrell Martin's story about his silent partner
Terrell picked ten of us and sent everybody else home.
Terrell was sure his friend could handle it.
Terrell wouldn't tell us.
Text messages from five years ago
Thank heavens the Supreme Court 2011 ruling
Thank you very much.
That 'cause you wiped them all out?
That bulge in your jacket pocket,
That had wandered into the bar.
That makes him pretty guilty in my book.
That one.
That sort of thing.
That the night he was attacked,
That time is “tolled.”
That true, Reggie?
That was part of the deal.
That was the Shoreline 99s.
That would give him motive to want to hurt Connor.
That would murder innocent strangers.
That's a match.
That's all we can charge him with assault, not murder.
That's an extra box of shotgun shells.
That's because they disappeared.
That's precisely the question
That's why we're here.
The barrels are being loaded onto trucks.
The best source of info on our missing gangsters.
The biggest smuggling caper in American history.
The case was opened on January 29, 2012,
The dark cloud that you find yourself under
The final messages grow tense.
The gang from South Queens, those Shoreline 99s?
The graveyard shift, and he worked crazy hours.
The guy got into a bar fight and wound up taking down,
The hell am I doing here?
The humiliation will fade.
The idea's to get my guys inside before anything does.
The idea's to get my guys inside before anything does.
The leader of the gang, Terrell,
The Linden Law Review is not a real publication.
The man in the diner, you said he'd
The man who assaulted Connor Brunelle.
The manager remembers Terrell Martin.
The Marriage Equality Act.
The moment it is reported and continues to count down
The motive for the most gruesome of crimes.
The next,
The night Connor was attacked.
The night that he was assaulted?
The problem with maple syrup is that the natural production
The question is, what does that have to do with this?
The red lesion behind your right ear,
The rental company you work for is the only business
The satisfaction of putting Frank Trimble
The secret weapon of the NYPD.
The Shoreline 99s disappeared because they pulled
The Shoreline 99s.
The single biggest cache
The single largest smuggling payload in American history.
The sound of evidence being destroyed?
The state of New York allows you five years
The syrup heist was his idea?
The tablecloth came down
The triangle on your... neck.
The trucks vanished that night,
The ultimatum, the hostages?
Their surplus supply.
Then returning Scot free
Then these young guns show up, start muscling in on our turf.
Then what do you want?
There a... reason you've got a totem pole in your bathroom?
There are 20 hostages
There are 20 hostages inside that building.
There are several clues, however, that indicate
There are several outstanding warrants for your arrest
There might come a time when we can offer some help,
There must be a thousand barrels.
There. That's you, Mr. Trimble,
There's a lot of it.
There's something you should see.
These are more than just scheduling banalities.
These bruises were made by the same hands.
These guys at the top, they gathered us all together
These texts could be setting up meetings.
These trucks were used in a smuggling plot,
They agreed to let Ramesh
They bulldozed it.
They do so over many major U.S. cities.
They dropped off the map.
They say why?
They set production quotas.
They tell me Mr. Holmes is
They used to roll out of a spot down on 160th,
They used to run cocaine
They were at war with a Nicaraguan gang
They were disbanding the gang.
They were kind enough to lend their assistance
They were taken the night of the operation.
They're doing a hell of a good job hiding it.
They're quite harmless.
This could dwarf that.
This guy was at the door.
This is a bad idea.
This is a small
This looks like some kind of smuggling operation.
This particular clip was recorded
This place was left unguarded
Those are my trucks, but I swear to you,
Those things can carry 80,000 pounds apiece.
Though, to be honest, there wasn't much for him to guard.
Time itself was undefeated...
To a friend in Narcotics,
To bring hundreds of steel barrels
To combat this issue, the Federation
To drive off with them?
To find his attacker
To find the man who attacked my son.
To get to the game.
To keep an eye on the building at night.
To kill an innocent man?
To kill an innocent man?
To kill anybody, I don't want you giving him one.
To kill everyone here, because you have no intention
To marks found on Connor Brunelle.
To move their drugs around or whatever.
To paraphrase: no myth is wholesale fable.
To remove basal cell carcinoma.
To roll out the unwelcome mat.
To search the premises in precisely this situation.
To set everyone free, just...
To start assault proceedings.
To that game, you left the country for 27 hours.
To The Crescent Moon Cafe in Greenpoint,
To what could be
Today is the last day anyone can help Connor.
