S04E28 Counting Chickens
Nick and Dash go to Betty Freer's funeral to show their support, only to be taken aback by her two sons brawling over her grave. The younger son, Alex, has dedicated years to working on Betty's free-range farm, while the older son has just returned from America with plans to revamp the place, igniting a fierce rivalry. This altercation at the funeral highlights the growing discord within the family. When Betty's bedroom is vandalized and her jewelry goes missing, PJ and Maggie step in to investigate. Is Jerry Freer simply trying to intimidate Alex, or is it a case of theft? The situation escalates with the theft of $2,000 worth of feed. Dash uncovers a potential lead involving their neighbor, Griff Hoekstra, a pig farmer with motives that could force the Freers to sell. Tensions rise further when Jerry's son faces a near-fatal incident, pushing PJ to solve the case before things spiral out of control.
