I have called this emergency meeting of the town council
to announce a momentous discovery
that's going to make tomorrow's Founders Day celebrations
our best ever. I have unearthed
the original town charter
written by our founders
Nathaniel and Meredith Merriwick.
In consideration of this wonderful turn of events,
I've hired an historian to come in and document
our town's illustrious past for our website.
Abigail, this must be
especially exciting for you,
seeing the words of your relatives
in all their original glory.

Hello, Natalie. - Hi! You must be Cassie.
Martha's told me all about you.
- Martha told me you're here to write about Middleton's history.

- There's plenty to write about. - And plenty to see.
I'm Vincent. - Hi. Natalie.
Nice to meet you.
- Oh! Vincent! Just the man I was looking for.
It is imperative that the Middleton treasure
is unearthed in the next 24 hours,
so that I can announce its discovery at Founders Day.
- The Middleton treasure? - Legend has it
that Nathaniel and Meredith Merriwick--
- Our town's founders.
- Had a trove of riches when they arrived here
from the Old World. - But its location was lost
with them in the Great Flood. - Now I know that you have
sailed the high seas, and I would imagine
with all your thrilling expeditions that you must know
someone who has a, shall we say, knack for finding things.
- You're in luck, I know the guy.
- Wonderful! Who? [whimsical music]
- You're looking at him. - Oh!
Well, may I ask what your credentials are?
- Well, I was once contracted to find
a sunken pirate ship from the 18th century.
Never had treasure in it,
but my crew and I were able
to track it down in the middle of the Mediterranean.
- That's impressive. - Very impressive.
You're hired! Guard this with your life.
I believe the first clue to the treasure was revealed
with a secret water mark.
- I start the search right away. - If you don't mind me
tagging along, it'd make for great material for my research.

to the Middleton treasure.
- And you volunteered to try and track it down?
- You're kidding, right?

- No flowers? - I figured it was your turn.
- Were you expecting an apology?
- Your son made it clear that sorry is not part
of your vocabulary.
- You're aware that Donovan wants to be governor someday?
- I'm sure you must have a point.
- My point
is that your relationship could jeopardize everything.
- It isn't my birthday. - This is far from a gift.
Your father's stint
in prison could derail Donovan's political future.
- I highly doubt that. - You're willing to take
a lot of risks with my son's career.
- This has nothing to do with my father, does it?

- No inscription symbols, nothing.
- Yeah. I had my doubts the town founders
would leave an answer key. - Hey, you never know.
One time, I found a section of a map etched
into a pirate's wooden leg.
- You must be a terrible poker player.
- You believed me for a minute. - More like ten seconds.
- Alright, we got a fire symbol and an X.
Could mark the spot.
Maybe the treasure's in a fireplace.
- It'd have to be one that was built 225 years ago.
- Well, information on buildings from back then
would be somewhere here in the archive.
- Or X could stand for ten.
- Fire plus ten. Ten fires.
That would generate a lot of heat.
We should check if anything burnt down back then.
- The town's first windmill went up into flames.
Read about it in my preliminary research on Middleton.
- There's a plaque dedicated
to the windmill out near Foster's Wood.
I've hiked by it a few times.
You see something? - What?
No. I was just thinking
maybe you should go check out the area around the plaque.
- What, you're not coming? - I'm supposed to interview
Mrs. Stanley, Middleton's oldest resident.
- Are you sure? I'd hate to find the treasure without you.
- I'll catch up with you later.
[electronic door chime]
- You know what I like about roses?
They have a built-in defense mechanism.
- They're not the only ones. - Is it that obvious?
A surprise from Donovan's mother.
She wants me to back off.
- Because of your father? - For starters.
- Did you tell her that you and Donovan tossed
a coin in the well? - I didn't get a chance.
It's like the harder I fall for Donovan,
the more things seem to go wrong. Ow!
- Ohhh... You should put something on that.
[Abigail sighing] [Cassie sighing]
You know, you are focused too much on the negative.
- That's because everything happening to me
right now is negative. - You can't have a positive life
with a negative mind. [electronic door chime]
- Abigail, I have to tell you something.
- That doesn't sound good.
- It's not.
The only reason Luke was interning at the mayor's office
was to get information on you. He was working for--
- Dottie Davenport. - How do you know?
- Let's just say it's been a pattern.
- Grace, I'm so sorry. Are you OK?
- No.
Not really, but...
talked to Sam. He's a great listener.
- One of the many reasons I married him.
- You know there is a Merriwick solution to all of this...
The pralines are mine.
- Cheers.
- I don't think that sundial's gonna make for a good interview.
- How did you know I was here?
- Something about the way you were looking
at the town charter told me you may have cracked the clue.
- I wanted to make sure I was right before I wasted your time.
- Hahaha! Time being the key.
Now imagine the face of a clock
on the front of this.
The date, October 12th, is
12 o'clock.
That puts the X in the 10 o'clock position.
The fire symbol could stand for light.
- And light plus time of day brought you to the sundial.
- Which has been here since the town was founded.
- I guess great minds think alike.

as selling that clay tablet that I had on consignment.

when he was hiking in Morocco. - Seems like a lot of people

My Monte Cristo sandwich is the best in the world.

- Tell you what,
we should make one, and the best Monte Cristo
is the signature sandwich for the launch.
- You're on.
- Any luck? - It's all Greek to me.
- Or Latin actually.
"Veritas intus jacet." The truth lies within.
- That makes sense. The fire symbol and the X
were hidden within the charter.
- Hmm, is that what led you to the sundial?
- Yeah, and this shadow
of four horizontal lines, which looks like the symbol for air.
- So the clues are based on the four elements.
- And air's literally everywhere.
- Leaving you nowhere.
- I just hope Natalie is as lost as I am.
- Who's Natalie? - Martha hired her
to write about Middleton,
but she's really trying to get the treasure.
- You told Martha? - I was hoping
to find the treasure first and avoid that conversation.
- Well, let's figure this out. [both sighing]
The symbol looks a little like a flag.
- OK, flags hang at, uh,
post offices, schools, city hall...

Ah, that stained glass window.

- There may be a passage in here.
- Haha! So what's next? More treasure hunting?
- Another treasure hunt isn't happening any time soon.
- Why not? - The Middleton treasure
was gonna buy me a boat.
- Maybe I can help. ♪♪
I've got a 30-foot sailboat docked in a marina
that's just dying to get out on the water.
- Where?
- Have you ever been to Miami?
- We've been looking everywhere for you two.
- Here we are.
- But not for long.
- I really miss the ocean.
- You just got here.
- Well, it's not for good. - Promise?
- Promise. We'll be back for Grace's graduation.
- She would love that. ♪♪
- Bye. - Bye-bye.
- Am I glad to see you two. Would you mind giving me a hand?
- Lead the way.
- Much as I look forward to Founders Day,
I'm always slightly relieved when it's over.
- Oh, it was one of the best ones yet.
- Agreed.
It was one of Middleton's finer moments.
"Veritas intus jacet."
Our motto right here in the charter.
Latin for "The town will triumph."
- Hmm, it actually means, "The truth lies within."
- Oh! Really?
What truth could that be?
Clearly, it's not the secret of the treasure.
- Um, looks like the motto remains a mystery.
♪♪ - Hmm. A mystery.
Hey, do you mind?
You know,
every great detective story
has a red herring.
And if you look closer...
...the truth lies within. [Martha gasping]
Looks like the town motto was more of an instruction manual.
- I wonder what it unlocks. - I guess we'll find out.
- Could be your next great discovery.
