The Freemasons recently got proof
that an underground network of Indigenous women
secreted away Montezuma's treasure.
I'm good at solving puzzles. Once I start something, I can't stop.
I figured out that name on that unit.
I'm looking for Mr. Peter Sadusky.
I have something that belongs to him.
This holds a clue to a treasure of utmost importance.
After the woman hid the treasure,
they divided clues to its location into three relics.
It's been 20 years since Rafael Rios
-found that relic. - I'll find it.
A Grand Master Mason
wanted to give you the secret to a lost treasure.
- But who's, who's Liam? - It's the old man's grandson.
- Excuse us. - I didn't realize anyone was listening.
I think I know who you walked away from. Your grandpa.
- I have something from him. - You can burn it.
What about the girl?
No way she'd risk lying to an FBI agent.
Well, maybe she figured out you weren't real FBI agents.
- It's the fake feds. - And we're leading them
right to the treasure.
What is it?
It's, um... I have no idea.
That's the symbol on your necklace.
My name is Billie.
Your friend's life... for the relic.
Please don't hurt my friend.
Well, that's up to you now, isn't it?
Ah, you, you, you talking to Jess?
So, what's it going to be, Jess?
You know what?
I... completely spaced.
I actually have a thing. I gotta bounce.
I'm so sorry, Oren.
But we're enjoying your sparkling personality way too much.
Oren? Where are you?
Please let me go.
Oren?
Okay, Billie.
I don't know who you are or where you came from,
but let me tell you--
Ah, there she is. Tasha Rivers.
How do you--
How do I know who you are?
I do my homework, darling.
Then it won't be a surprise when I hijack all of your devices
and use them to destroy you.
I appreciate the heads-up.
But you should worry about your own firewall.
She hacked my computer.
Would you put Jess back on, please?
No, no, no...
You can have the relic.
Good girl. I'll meet you at three o'clock
at the Port of Baton Rouge.
We'll do the exchange there. Oren for the relic.
I...
No, I'm not doing that.
Excuse me?
You sent fake FBI agent's after me.
Kidnapped my friend.
And now you wanna meet at some scary, isolated dock?
No way.
It makes no difference to me where we meet.
Why don't you pick a place?
The USS Kidd?
We can meet at the museum gift shop.
Wonderful. I love museums. I'll be there in an hour.
Oh, and Jess?
If you go running to the police,
you'll never see your friend again.
Do you understand?
This isn't happening.
I think I'm gonna be sick.
Why the USS Kidd Museum?
I worked there, remember?
The museum gift shop has a designated MP assigned to it.
Billie won't be able to pull any surprises there.
Or a gun.
Oren is not built for this.
He must be so scared.
Maybe my plan is bad.
We should go to the FBI.
Uh-uh.
You heard her. She said don't go to the cops.
Yeah, because maybe she has an informant there.
She didn't say anything about the FBI, and this is literally their specialty.
Jess, you know what happens if we go to them?
We get put in their system, then they can
and will track every move we ever make.
You're being a little dramatic.
Am I?
One minute you attend a peaceful protest,
a month later, they charge you for participating in a riot.
- But in this case, the FBI has-- - I know. I know.
You wanna be in the FBI.
And how is your lifelong dream, my recurring nightmare?
It's Ethan.
Bet you anything he's checking on us.
We should go before he gets back.
Maybe he can help.
He got upset I tracked this relic down.
Imagine if we told him Oren got kidnapped
and that I set a ransom exchange with this kidnapper.
We just stick to the plan of going to the FBI.
I don't remember agreeing to that. Did I agree to that?
I promise, they're gonna help us get Oren back.
Listen, the only way I can do this is if we agree to tell them
as little as possible.
- They're gonna need some details. - Yeah, but not every detail.
Do you really wanna tell the U.S. government
that you stole that relic from a masonic lodge?
I didn't steal it. I found it.
I'll tell them whatever they need to know.
We gotta get Oren back.
Could be inside jobs.
Grill every teller, manager, janitor.
Someone knows something.
All right? Let's go.
Excuse me, Agent Hendricks, sir.
Ross. How you settling in?
Cursing the day you got assigned to Baton Rouge?
- Settling in fine, sir. - Good.
So, maybe we should revisit a theory about the bank robbers.
I think they do work construction.
The residue from the first job was definitely plaster.
This was all in Wilson's report.
Which ruled out construction workers.
Yes, I know, but I was going back through--
You've got your own duties to attend to.
Speaking of which,
we've got a couple of walk-ins in the lobby.
Walk-ins?
Great.
I know you wanna make an impact.
Just...
let the game come to you.
I'm Agent Ross. How can I help?
Our friend was kidnapped, ma'am.
Kidnapped?
You should've told the front desk.
- Is there a ransom demand? - Yes.
They want this.
It's supposed to lead to a treasure.
I think.
You think?
That's what this old man, Peter Sadusky, told me.
He was a retired FBI agent.
But he actually died not long after.
And it was maybe under mysterious circumstances.
Then this woman named Billie called demanded this relic,
and said she's keeping our friend hostage until I give it to her.
Where are you supposed to meet her?
The USS Kidd gift shop in 30 minutes.
You're doing a ransom exchange in a museum gift shop?
It's a very public place.
Okay. Let's back up. What's the kidnapping victim's name?
- Sam. - Okay.
Sam what?
Sam Samuels.
Sam Samuels?
Junior. Yep.
And your names are?
I am Jane Doevers.
- And I'm Je-- - Jen...
Lopez.
All right, let's just make sure I have all this.
So, a retired FBI agent told you where to find a relic
that leads to treasure... you think.
Then, a woman named Billie took your friend Sam Samuels Junior
hostage for this relic.
The exchange is gonna take place in a museum gift shop.
And your names are Jane Doevers and Jen Lopez.
Did I leave anything out?
I'm sorry, you say all of that like you think that we are lying.
Look, I'm new here.
I know someone paid you off to prank me.
It's real funny everyone.
Hazing the new girl.
We're not pranking you.
Okay, then let's go inside and file a report.
But you should know that falsely reporting a kidnapping is a crime.
Even as a prank.
Whether you found that relic at a yard sale
or the pawn shop on River Road, that's going in the official FBI records.
No.
We don't wanna file a report.
I didn't think so.
But, hey, tell whoever put you up to this that...
...I actually needed a laugh.
So, thanks.
What did you just do?
Saved you from going on their permanent record.
- I lied to the FBI. - No, I lied. You didn't.
You're good.
Now we're on our own.
Before I hand this to Billie,
I just wish I could figure out how my dad is connected to this relic.
The sun symbol in the middle that matches your necklace,
that is way too unique to just be a coincidence.
I know.
You see these symbols that are in a circle?
Maybe that's not just a design.
Maybe they're dials.
But they don't move.
Unless...
I need to figure out where due north is.
Um. Hello. Every phone comes with a compass app.
Here.
There it is.
What was that?
It's a puzzle box.
There's a compass hidden inside.
Dials don't move until the box is pointed due north.
A box? Are you saying this opens?
Maybe the dots represent an eye.
Sadusky was a Mason,
and those guys are all about the All-Seeing Eye.
Mm.
Okay. So, the box is not Masonic.
But sometimes puzzles are stories.
What's this story?
We start with the sun.
Shining down on what?
Maybe, our friend the rabbit.
Then, our friend the rabbit hops on the...
ground as the sun shines on it.
And where does our friend the rabbit go to get out of the sun?
A briar patch.
Oh.
Like I said, you notice things no one else would notice.
Now, see the blue?
These look like sections of a map.
It does.
Mm.
These don't match up.
The ransom exchange is in 10 minutes.
And we don't have time to figure it out.
You know what?
- Good idea. - Yeah.
Mm.
Jess, there you are.
Buffy looks hungry.
Do you know where Oren is?
Oh, um...
- I think he went on a sneaker hunt. - Of course.
Hey, listen, um...
I'm sorry about earlier.
I felt like I was lecturing you.
You were just looking out for me, and honestly, I appreciate it.
Thanks, Jess.
So, I have a question for you.
Tasha and I are playing this online attorney role-playing game,
and we need help.
Sure. Hit me with it.
If a suspect kidnaps a person, but you can't prove it,
can you get them arrested for a smaller crime first, then prove it?
Sure.
Misdemeanor arrest lead to felony convictions all the time.
I gotta run.
Thanks.
What are you cooking up, Jess?
A way to bust Billie.
They take shoplifting very seriously at the museum gift shop.
I'm gonna turn her into a shoplifter.
Oren.
Do you remember what we told you?
Mm-hm. Mm-hm.
You know where me and my friends live.
You know where we work.
You know where we hang out.
And if anything goes wrong...
you're gonna kill us all.
Let's go meet your friends.
The plan's gonna work.
Just keep an eye out.
Good. We're early.
There's the MP.
Jess, and you are sure
"Mr. Military Man" will come through for us?
I'm sure.
The MPs here live to guard the gift shop.
Oh, I'll go get him back.
Uh, you need to stay here
and do your thing before Billie shows up.
And don't let her see your necklace, okay? All right.
Hi. Welcome to the USS Kidd gift shop.
Big sale today on USS Kidd keychains.
They don't float, but they do open bottles.
Oh, that could work. Thanks.
Yeah.
Uh, additional ten percent off
if you know what year the USS Kidd was launched.
February 28th, 1943.
Excuse me while I try this on.
Yeah, that's right. It was... It was a Sunday.
The USS Kidd is getting national historic landmark.
It is the only surviving American squadron.
Really?
Finding anything you like?
You're Billie.
- Who were you expecting? - I don't know.
But I didn't expect someone
who looks like they walk throughout the town in "Big Little Lies".
This isn't a television show.
Where's the relic?
Where's Oren?
Oren.
I've kept my side of the bargain.
Now, where's the relic?
Hi. Did you need something, ma'am?
Huh?
I don't. I'm all right, thank you.
So, what brings you here to the "Pirate of the Pacific"?
That's what the old tin can was called during World War Two.
Isn't that fascinating?
Excuse me, but you can't be in here. This is the men's room.
Well, excuse me for not being beholden to binary systems of oppression.
The women's room is just down the hall.
You don't wanna get me started on the misogynistic placements
of the female facilities, okay?
But I had nothing to do with that decision.
Oh, so since it wasn't your decision, you just get to ignore
how gender stereotypes keeps our society locked
in a cycle of patriarchal advantages?
- The bathroom is all yours. - Oh, thank you so much.
Because they would pluck downed pilots right from the water during the war
and then return them to their aircraft carriers
for a hefty ransom... of ice cream.
Ransom, how dreadful.
Well, you know, it was all in fun.
War is never fun.
You're stalling.
Which makes me think that you've already broken our deal
and spoken to someone you shouldn't have.
No, I didn't.
Here.
That's better.
Oren.
Oh, hey, hey, hey! Stop right there.
Excuse me, ma'am?
Officer, do I look like someone who needs to steal something?
Really?
Obviously, there's been a malfunction.
I'm gonna have to look inside your purse.
I don't have a purse, officer.
I'm sorry. You're good to go, ma'am.
Thank you.
- She kidnapped our friend. - Oh, don't be ridiculous.
Kidnapped?
Is this true?
Oren, tell everyone you were kidnapped by this woman.
Uh, I don't know what these girls are talking about.
I... I wasn't kidnapped.
Okay, you know, I'm gonna have to ask you all to leave, please.
Remind me, in "Big Little Lies" did they get away with murder?
What was that, Oren?
It's okay. At least we got him back.
No, we had a really good plan.
We were gonna get Billie arrested.
They were gonna kill us.
What?
Look, they know everything about us.
These people are for real.
They don't mess around.
I wasn't sure I'd see you again.
You saved our lives.
Oren, I'm so glad you're okay.
You really don't have to be here, Mom.
It's... It's cool you came and all.
But?
Ah, it's just...
not a big deal.
Your grandpa's death isn't a big deal?
We hadn't talked in a long time.
I can't believe you still blame him for your dad's death.
Well, I can't believe you still don't.
Liam, honey, your dad was a grown man
who made his own decisions.
No one forced him to go looking for...
Just forget it.
Maybe some good will come from this.
If I get any money, I'm moving to Nashville.
Nashville?
That's where I've gotta be if I wanna break in.
There's nothing for me here in Baton Rouge.
There hasn't been for a while.
Sorry, I'm late.
Peter's paperwork was disorganized, but it's all sorted now.
- This, uh, this won't take long, right? - Nope.
Your grandfather left you his house.
I thought he was gonna leave me a few grand or something.
Oh, honey, it's worth way more than that.
- Eventually. - Eventually?
To sell that house, there's probate,
renovations, tax liabilities.
You're looking at two, three years.
I'm stuck here for the next three years?
What kind of grandpa screws you from the great beyond?
Triple-cheese pepperoni...
No way.
- ...with cheesy breadsticks. - No way. No way.
- And the extra dipping sauce. - Yeah.
I mean, if this wasn't the worst day of my life,
it would totally be the best day of my life.
- Oh, my god. - Yeah.
I'm sorry you had to give that thing to that woman.
Hey, don't even worry about it.
I got pics and our girl figured out it was a map.
- Like a, a treasure map? - Uh-huh.
And it's all tied into Jess's shady daddy.
- We're not sure he's shady anymore. - Wait.
So, we're talking like an honest-to-God treasure map?
- Yeah. - Oh.
But Billie has it now,
and she's way ahead of us.
Okay.
So, she's ahead of us, right?
And she's got crazy funds.
Did you see her shoes? Those are special edition Christian Dior.
You could fly into space with what those cost.
- Yeah. - Those were her kidnapping shoes.
We've just gotta be scrappy.
Zig when she zags.
So, I ask what is our next move?
You were just traumatized, Oren. What's going on?
That's very fair.
Okay, first, let me clarify.
Was I scared? Yes.
Am I still sweating in places that I'd rather not think about?
Not sure why I shared that.
But now that I'm safe,
all I wanna do is help Jess decode secret maps.
Hunt for long-lost gold.
Find the X that marks the spot.
Yo, this is a real deal Holyfield treasure hunt.
That lady wouldn't have kidnapped me if it wasn't.
Yeah.
He's got a point.
Really?
You guys are still in this with me?
- Yeah. - Yes.
What is our next move?
I don't really know.
But I have an idea where to start.
That crazy old man's crazy old house?
- It's where the first clue came from. - Yeah.
Maybe there are more clues there.
And while you do that, I'm gonna dig into Billie.
I gotta figure out exactly who we're up against.
Love that. And as for me,
I am going to finish the triple cheese hottie,
and then I am on the clock.
You've earned it.
Oh, and, uh,
don't tell Ethan.
Don't you worry. I got that on lockdown.

Anyone here?
Hello?
Mr. "I'm a ghost."
Kinda weird to say that now.
This holds a clue to a treasure of utmost importance.
Are there more clues here?
You can't blame a girl for asking.
That's the symbol on your necklace.
Did you want me to find this?
Oh, I thought you were a burglar!
Oh, you're the girl that was bugging me at the club.
I'm sorry. I didn't know anyone was home and--
What? You just break into my grandpa's house?
Oh.
This is way past stanning.
What? I'm not stanning you.
I didn't even know you'd be in here.
- And... I didn't break-in. - Oh.
- The door was open. - That changes everything.
You can't just walk into people's houses uninvited.
You're right.
And I'm sorry, but I decoded the picture.
- The one I told you to burn? - Well, I didn't.
I found this relic.
Turns out it's a puzzle box.
Impressive.
When you open it,
the pieces look like a treasure map.
And I wanted to see if your grandfather left anything that would explain
what to do with these pieces because he said that the--
The relic leads to an important treasure?
Unreal.
Now, even on his deathbed, he convinced another idiot
to embark on a treasure hunt.
Did you just call me an idiot?
Let me tell you where that thing leads.
To a basement under an abandoned school,
and then a cave with the river of lava,
and then a thousand-year-old tree.
And once you make it to that tree,
you can bang your head against it for the rest of your life.
There's no treasure, okay?
And searching for it is dangerous.
I know it is.
Look, my dad died when I was a baby.
Okay? And the only thing he left me was this necklace.
That's the same symbol as the one on the puzzle box.
I don't know what you want me to tell you.
- So, if you don't mind... - Don't worry.
I'm leaving.
Can I borrow this?
Only if you throw it away when you're finished.
Here we go.
She put a keychain inside.
It's a puzzle box and that girl opened it.
Sadusky must have told her how.
But why her?
Not as though Sadusky would just throw a dart and pick whoever it hits.
The old man thought she was his grandson.
Be certain we haven't missed something on this girl.
Thanks again for letting me and Buffy crash.
Looks like you're situated.
Guess you struck out on your sneaker hunt, huh?
Haven't heard a peep about any new shoes.
The Avex 1,000s?
Don't come up for another week.
So, you weren't on a sneaker hunt yesterday?
No.
Is that what Jess told you?
Yeah, that's what she told me.
Right. The, the sneaker hunt. Yeah, um...
Yeah, dude, that thing was a bloodbath, let me tell you.
- So, what did you get? - Uh, the, uh...
Galaxy Inversions.
- Huh? - Yeah.
- Extra Jordans. - Mm.
Dude, I can't tell you where I was.
Why was Jess covering for you?
She wasn't covering for me, okay?
What happened to me, actually, was because of her.
Wait, something happened to you?
I shouldn't have said that either.
I'm fine now, don't you...
Wait.
Was this because of that treasure hunt?
I got the files you requested on Peter Sadusky.
Ah, thank God.
The only thing I can find on him
is that he was a supervisory special agent in D.C.
- Hope that helps. - Thank you.

So, I figured out the role-playing game was fake.
Besides spilling the beans, is Oren okay?
I mean, he's fine, but I'm here to see if you're okay.
I can't believe that happened.
Well, I can finally breathe again.
The pit in my stomach is gone.
I never thought any of this would put my friends' lives in danger.
Why didn't you tell me?
I'm sorry. It was really scary and stressful, Ethan.
It's just...
we've never had secrets between us.
I know.
Like Meena?
How long have you guys been dating?
About six weeks.
Wow.
You must really like her.
Yeah. I do.
I'm not sure why I didn't tell you about her.

But there are other symbols which might be Mayan and Incan,
which is confusing.
Now it's confusing?
Aztecs and Mayans weren't exactly best friends.
Not even frenemies?
Nope.
And Incans were way south.

Hey, Stan, before you ask,
I changed all the locks on my stick and since--
What are you doing here?
Working.
Poof!
"OMG" as you kids say.
Oh, I forgot to call you.
Same as you forgot to call me.
- What are you talking about? - You missed yesterday.
First day of the month.
Never been busier.
No, seriously, I had to work like a dog,
and you know all about my sciatica.
I switched shifts with Vince.
Yeah, well, maybe you should've picked somebody more reliable
than Vince Madurski.
He never showed.
So...
guess who takes the fall.
Your grandpa was such a passionate collector.
You mean crazy hoarder?
You wanna tackle the bookcase next?
No, I'll deal with it later.
I just wanna help you get a head start on all this before I go to the airport.
But I will be back for Grandpa's wake.
- Wake? - Yeah.
It's important.
People need to mourn.
Remember the good stuff.
Sometimes that's worse.
Oh, right. I gotta get to the club.
How often do you play there?
- At the club? - Yeah.
A few times a week.
Does it pay the bills?
Not yet.
Liam, I, I'm...
I'm worried that you've been drifting since your dad died.
What? I was 12.
I just think you have so much potential.
Like your dad did.
But he went from being a war hero to someone totally obsessed
with finding treasure.
What does it have to do with me?
He went all-in on an unattainable dream.
And I would just hate to see you look back
and regret wasting all these years
on something that's never gonna happen, honey.
I didn't realized you thought my dad was a failure.
- That's not what I said. - Yeah.
And you think I'm just like my dad.
Uh, you know what? I gotta go.
Ah...
Hello, hello. Check it.
So, the remote access Trojan Billie used on my computer was a weak sauce.
I reverse-engineered her attack and got all her deets.
Full name is Billie Pearce, a.k.a. "Queen of Cryptocurrency".
Also, an antiquities dealer.
- Mm. - Hm.
What's wrong with you?
Uh, I haven't seen that look on your face since you mixed up Luxembourg
and that other country in Model U.N.
You mean Liechtenstein?
It's just a bunch of letters thrown together.
- I got fired. - Oh.
You've never been fired for anything in your life.
Exactly.
I need a new job.
You'll find one.
We don't stay fired, we get fired up.
- Do we? - Yes.
Uh, Squeaky Pete's, where we saw hottie musician man?
There was a "Help wanted" sign on the window.
They're looking for a waitress.
Liam Sadusky works there.
He's the last person I wanna see every night.
Well, we gotta do something, Jess.
I mean, I guess we could always try to get a dance to go viral on TikTok.
For some extra cash.
- Is that what you wanna do? - No.
Or you wanna go to Squeaky Pete's?
- Okay. - Okay.
Let's figure it out.
No. No.
Because a man's entire career cannot be redacted.
That makes no sense.
No, thank you.
Ross, it's late.
Didn't think you'd still be here.
Hey, you, you ordered a toxicology report concerning Peter Sadusky's death.
Why?
Do you remember those walk-ins?
Mm-hm.
They had this crazy story that I thought was a prank.
They mentioned Agent Sadusky
may be dying under mysterious circumstances.
I looked him up.
He arrested the guy who stole the Declaration of Independence.
That Peter Sadusky was an American hero.
That's why I thought I should investigate his death, sir.
Well, Ross, um...
I was friends with Peter.
I worked with him on a couple of really big cases.
And then his son died, and he was never the same.
He was eventually dismissed from the FBI.
That's really sad to hear.
Oh, it was heartbreaking.
Peter Sadusky had a turbulent last decade fighting dementia.
Finally passed away peacefully in his sleep.
You want me to cancel the toxicology report?
Let's give the man some dignity.
Night, Ross.
Night.
Okay.
Well, everything's in order, but the job is mostly waiting tables,
and, uh, I don't see any of that on your resume.
No, but I've worked at a lot of places.
As you can see, I've swept floors, stocked shelves, bagged at a--
No, no, no, you have a ton of experience.
But this job takes training,
and I just don't have the time.
I'm sorry.
Can I just say, I've only been here a few minutes,
and I've already noticed that table one needs extra napkins
because that lady has never eaten barbecue before.
The sodas from the fountain are flat, so the machine needs CO2.
And that stool at the bar has a wobbly leg,
it won't make it through the night.
Wow.
Any chance you can start right now?
That'd be great.
Good. I'll get you a server's apron.
Welcome to Squeaky Pete's.
Thank you, sir.
Jimmy, go back and change those tanks for me, would you?
Never gonna leave me alone, are you?
I just started working here.
And before you ask, no,
it's not so I could talk to you about treasure hunts.
I needed a job. Got it?

Yeah, I'm thinking of doing karaoke.
Karaoke?
Really?
Wait, you want drunk college students mangling "Sweet Caroline" every night?
Hey, man, look, you've been a...
You've been a musician slash bartender long enough, huh?
You gave it a good shot,

When do you get off?

Another secret compartment?
Uh...
Not... exactly.
Is this all connected to the same treasure?
Yeah.
Has to do with conquistadors and Aztecs.
Like your dad's necklace.
All these years,
my mom never told me what it meant.
Why not?
She didn't want me to end up like my dad.
I think you're gonna find we have a lot in common.
So, where did all this come from?
My dad got most of his information from an unpublished academic paper
written in Mexico a couple of decades ago.
I don't know if you speak Spanish but...
This is what started it all.
What is it?
Is something wrong?
No.
I just...
