As our episode begins, we find Magnus Advarsson, heir to the Solomon’s River Mines, collapsed on the floor of Rajiv’s Coffee House, his condition unknown. An EMT arrives, taking Magnus out to the ambulance, only to discover he has been teabagged; two teabags crammed into his throat in an effort to choke him to death!
Det. Smith’s brother Paul arrives in town unexpectedly and tells everyone she is not a detective; she just read a lot of Nancy Drew books as a child.
We find Magnus alive in the hospital as Father Flanigan takes confessions in the church. The EMT confesses that, for an as yet unknown reason, he in fact lied about Magnus; in fact, the EMT is trying to frame someone else for teabagging Magnus. Paul also confesses that he is sorry about trying to ruin his sister’s life, only to discover Fr. Flanigan has left the confessional and he is, in fact, talking to his sister, who promptly forgives him as they share a hug through the confessional window.
- Why is the EMT trying to frame someone for the attempted murder of Magnus Advarsson?
- Why is Paul being such a jerk?
- Why did Fr. Flanigan leave the confessional in mid-confession?
- Where is Rajiv?
