- With the investigation scratching at a web of old crimes originating inside the building, a mysterious young man turns the tables to spy on Charles, Oliver and Mabel.
- A young Theo Dimas watches his father listening to music on headphones. Teddy laments that his son can't hear the beautiful music and puts the headphones on him, turning the music louder and louder in an aggressive attempt to get Teddy to hear it.
Theo uses binoculars to spy on Charles, Oliver, and Mabel as they plan their next move. Later, he breaks in to Charles' apartment and takes a picture of their clue board, which includes his father as a prime suspect. He shows his father the picture and warns that the trio of podcasters is onto him. Teddy says that it's his job to look after Theo, not the other way around, and that he believes in the old adage of keeping your friends close but your enemies closer.
Oliver lures Teddy out of his apartment under the pretext of a lunch meeting about the podcast. While he's gone, Charles and Mabel break into the apartment. They find a hidden closet filled with urns from the Shine On Funeral Home. When Theo unexpectedly comes home, the two hide and manage to sneak out, although they leave behind one of the gloves they had worn. Theo flashes back to ten years earlier. Mabel and her Hardy Boys had broken into the apartment and Theo hid in the closet. Observing Mabel and her friends through a peep hole, he saw Zoe say that she thinks he's hot. She steals a ring and puts it on her finger. Theo makes a noise and Zoe sees the peephole and realizes he's watching. She discretely signs to him "I meant it when I said you're hot". On New Years Eve, Oscar and Zoe share an elevator with Theo and his father on the way to the party. Zoe discretely gropes Theo during the ride. When they get off the elevator, Zoe signs "Happy New Year" to Theo. Teddy sees the ring on her finger and confronts Theo.
While Charles is on a date with Jan, Oliver and Mabel attend a service at the Shine on Funeral Home. Seeing urns similar to those in the Dimas' apartment, they sneak into the basement and discover a secret storage room containing jars of jewelry and what appear to be gold fillings. Teddy comes down into the basement. Mabel and Oliver secretly observe him removing jewelry from a dead body. Teddy discovers them and they try to flee but find the door locked. Ten years earlier, at the New Years party, Theo observes Oscar and Zoe arguing. After Oscar leaves he goes and talks to Zoe, telling her that Oscar is no good for her. He asks for the ring back. Zoe signs that "It's not like you proposed with it." Theo replies that "I'll get you a ring one day, if you want." Realizing that Theo has feelings for her, Zoe laughs in his face, and apologizes for leading him on. When Theo advises her to stop trying to find happiness in other people she gets angry at him, signing that "you're very confused about which way the pity flows here." She angrily takes off the ring and gives it back to Theo. She begins hitting him and as he tries to restrain her he accidentally pushes her off the roof. A horrified Theo sees Tim looking on. A tearful Theo goes to his father, who asks him three questions: how bad is it? Are you responsible? Did anyone see you? Teddy confronts Tim Kono, advising him to stay quiet about what he saw or that he and Mabel might meet the same fate as Zoe.
Theo drives a van through the city. In the back are Mabel and Oliver, bound and gagged. He texts his father, warning Teddy that Mabel and Oliver know and have seen everything. Charles wakes up after having spent the night with Jan. There are a slew of text messages from Mabel and Oliver. Mabel tells him that the password to Tim's phone might be "Theo". Charles tries it and the phone unlocks. He says "we did it."
