IT MAKES IT HARDER

FOR THEM TO IMAGINE

IT AS THEIRS.

EXCUSE ME.

THEY'LL NEVER KNOW

I'M HERE.

PASSED OUR IN THE BUSHES

OR THE TIME YOU WERE

NAKED IN THE POOL?

I WASN'T NAKED.

BRADY OLINSON.

HI.

YOU MAY KNOW HIM

AS REX STEPHENS.

OH, THE RIVER GAMBLER.

I READ THAT. IS THAT YOU?

MM-HMM. DON'T TELL

ANYBODY, THOUGH.

THE THRONGS WOULD

RUIN MY AZALEAS.

IT WAS VERY POPULAR

WHEN IT CAME OUT.

YEARS AGO.

BUT YOU KNOW:

WHAT THEY SAY--

IT ONLY TAKES ONE HI TO MAKE A NAME.

BUT IT TAKES A FEW HITS

TO MAKE A CAREER, RIGHT?

BINGO. I LIKE

THIS ONE ALREADY.

I LOVE MYSTERIES,

ALL THAT SORT OF

PROBLEM-SOLVING STUFF.

PEOPLE LIKE:

A GOOD PUZZLE.

AMY, DID YOU SEE THE GARDENS

WHEN YOU DROVE UP?

YES, I DID,

AND THERE IS:

A LOT OF LAND.

THAT IS SOMETHING

TO CONSIDER.

IS THERE A GROUNDSKEEPER?

I COULD ALWAYS:

COME BACK.

YOU'D THANK ME

WHEN THE MUMS BLOOM.

I KNOW SOME:

EXCELLENT GARDENERS.

THANK YOU.

I WAS JUST ABOU TO GIVE AMY

THE GRAND TOUR,

SO...

AH, OKAY, GREAT.

WELL, DON'T TELL HER

ANY REAL-ESTATE

LIES, BETH.

THE HOUSE SPEAKS

FOR ITSELF.

I WANT TO MAKE SURE

SHE KNOWS WHA SHE'S GETTING.

NICE TO MEET YOU.

ENJOY THE TOUR.

I'LL CALL YOU.

OKAY.

HE SEEMS NICE.

HE USED TO BE:

REALLY GRUMPY.

HOW LONG HAS THIS PLACE

BEEN ON THE MARKET?

ABOUT A YEAR.

PUT THINGS:

IN PERSPECTIVE,

THE ESTATE:

ACROSS THE STREET--

FIVE YEARS.

WHY IS HE:

SELLING IT?

HE HAD A REALLY HARD TIME

AFTER HIS DIVORCE.

APPARENTLY,

THE EX-WIFE WAS

JUST REALLY AWFUL.

AND SO AFTER THAT,

HE TRIED TO STAR WRITING AGAIN.

THE POOR THING:

HAD 10 YEARS

OF WRITERS' BLOCK.

AND NOW THE NEW:

BOOK'S NOT SELLING.

I JUST THINK HE WANTS

TO START A NEW LIFE.

RIGHT. THERE WAS

A MURDER HERE.

THINK I CAN:

GET A DEAL?

EVERYTHING YOU SEE

COULD BE INCLUDED.

I LIKE THE CHANDELIER.

NEEDS A LITTLE WORK.

IT'S VENETIAN.

FROM VENICE.

HERE'S THE MASTER

BEDROOM.

IS THERE CENTRAL AIR?

YEAH, OF COURSE.

IS THAT ROOSEVELT?

OH, YEAH. HE'S ONE

OF THREE PRESIDENTS

TO STAY IN THIS ROOM.

WHO ELSE DID?

UM, "W."

BUSH?

AND THAT'S

THE LAST NAME...

WASHINGTON?

UM... WILSON.

WOODROW WILSON.

YEAH, YEAH.

AND THE BUILDER,

JOHN CONWAY, WAS...

A WORLD WAR I:

PROFITEER.

I LOOKED THAT UP.

GUN MANUFACTURER.

DO THEY STILL HAVE

A SHOOTING RANGE

IN THE BASEMENT?

OH, NO.

IT'S A THEATER

AND A GAME ROOM:

AND AN EXERCISE ROOM.

THE PLACE IS SO BIG,

EACH DIFFERENT OWNER

HAS EITHER ENDED UP

REDECORATING ROOMS

OR THEY JUS LEAVE THEM ALONE.

REALLY?

AND MR. CONWAY WAS

QUITE THE HUNTER.

OH, MY GOD.

Beth:

TROPHY ROOM.

Amy:

THIS IS A 1920s

MAN CAVE.

1927, TO BE EXACT.

WOW.

DON'T GET ANY IDEAS.

ALL THESE HEADS:

ARE GOING WITH ME.

MR. OLINSON,

THAT IS GOOD NEWS.

CALL ME BRADY, PLEASE.

SOME OF THESE WERE HERE

WHEN I BOUGHT THE PLACE,

BUT THESE TWO:

I BAGGED MYSELF.

I LIKE THE OLD FURNITURE.

YOU DO?

WELL...

THAT IS A WILD COW

THAT YOU'RE SITTING ON.

THIS IS A COMFY COW.

BETH SAID ALL YOUR

FURNITURE WAS AVAILABLE.

SHE DID?

NOT MY RED ANGUS.

NO, NO, NO.

THIS ONE I HAD:

MADE SPECIAL MYSELF.

GO AHEAD, FEEL IT.

OH, YES, IT'S NICE.

NICE, HUH? YEAH.

ONCE I WRESTLED HER

TO THE GROUND, I KNEW.

I WAS SPLAYED OU ACROSS HER,

THINKING TO MYSELF,

"THIS IS MORE COMFORTABLE

THAN MY EX-WIFE.

I'M GONNA MAKE

A SOFA OUT OF YOU."

DID YOU HOGTIE HER?

MY WIFE OR THE ANGUS?

BRADY!

YOU CAN'T HOGTIE A COW.

THAT'S RIDICULOUS.
