Just what it looks like. Wolves got him.

Maybe a grizzly with insomnia,

but I couldn't find any tracks.

Well, would it surprise you to learn

that his brother tried to cash

in his policy not two weeks ago?

What are you trying to tell me

that Mr. Barnell chewed off

his brother's leg?

Well, doesn't it make you the least

bit suspicious that maybe...

Mr. Watters, I don't know thing one

about insurance...

but I'm guessing it's your job

to find a way not to pay these poor people.

This is a nice, simple ending.

We like nice, simple endings.

Chief? Good news, bad news.

The good news, he's dead.

Bad news, he disappeared.

Proof, Jimbo. You got one week.

It was our first time.

Nobody gets it perfect their first time, Dave.

Mr. Branch, this is not a standard case.

You were there when the guy came in

and tried to cash in.

I mean, come on. It stinks.

Watters, if the police say

that this guy was...

Eaten by wolves, sir.

...eaten by wolves,

then we've got no case.

Did you happen to see

Mr. Barnell on the news last night?

The police told us what happened.

How are you folks holding up?

Well, my wife is too upset to be here.

Paul? Who's out there?

As I said, she's very upset.

Paul? The door's stuck.

It's tough, though,

'cause you have to ask yourself...

Who f***ed with the f***ing door?

You see how stressful his has been.

I have to go now because

we have a service to plan. Excuse me.

Hi.

Well, what we don't need is bad PR.

I don't want this thing Valdezing on us.

Mr. Branch I'm sure that head office

would take a rather dim view

of our approach to...

Corporate's view will be what I tell them.

Okay.

Yes, sir. Color us "called off" as of now.

Thanks, Cam. Thanks a lot.

Thanks for, all the back up.

You got a strange way of bucking

for a promotion, my friend.

Look, I'm gonna start on the Johnson file.

You wanna do up

the paperwork on Barnell?

Where you going?

Lunch.

At nine-thirty?

Yeah.

We got seven joints here.

We got a card place,

we got a Great Escape Travel, hair joint.

Which one you figure'd

wanna take our friend?

The police say they found Raymond's

wallet and that's how they tracked you down.

- Yes, that's right.

- Any idea what he was doing out there?

He'd take walks. Hikes.

Hiking.

How sporty.

- Can I get you a cup of coffee?

- No, thank you.

Was he a big hiker?

I'm sorry, I don't follow.

Well, would he hike more than once

a week or was this just a one time thing?

May I ask why you need to know all this?

Just trying to tie up

some loose ends, Mr. Barnell.

You know, the police they say

my brother died in the attack.

Now, you do cover

that sort of thing, don't you?

Yes, sir, Mr. Barnell, and it shouldn't
