- Parker: Who's that?
- Eliot Spencer: His name's Leonard. It's Madigan's right-hand guy.
- Parker: He's got a very punchable face.
- Eliot Spencer: Yeah, I noticed that.
- Alec Hardison: There's the full non-disclosure agreement that Kristen's required to sign in order to get her settlement. That thing's a hundred pages longer than the one you sign for the CIA. The winery's just trying to get her to shut up.
- Sophie Devereaux: And how did you get your hands on the CIA contract?
- Alec Hardison: You ask too many questions.
- Alec Hardison: Charmer we heard, that's Frank Madigan. He recently bought the Bee Meadow Winery. Basically, he fired all the staff and hired a bunch of part-timers.
- Sophie Devereaux: Where'd he get his money?
- Alec Hardison: He used to run a chemical manufacturing company. They made acrylics, adhesives, dyes, epoxies, fertilizers.
- Nathan Ford: What's his safety record?
- Alec Hardison: He's got several worker fatalities. He... he's basically trying to pull the same thing he did there; paying for silence. I mean, if his old company was a person, he'd be doing time for murder one.
- Alec Hardison: Okay, so here's the loan that Madigan took out to buy the winery. Now, it says here he put up his wine collection as collateral. Can he do that?
- Sophie Devereaux: If you have a strong collection made up of certain vintages, it can easily be worth millions.
- Nathan Ford: Yeah, some of the biggest cases I investigated were wine insurance payouts.
- Sophie Devereaux: What is the jewel in his crown?
- Alec Hardison: That would be a bottle previously owned by Thomas Jefferson.
- Sophie Devereaux: Excuse me?
- Alec Hardison: It's the only one of its kind. Appraised value is... priceless.
- Nathan Ford: When Eliot and Parker find out Madigan's secret, that bottle is what we'll use as leverage.
- Sophie Devereaux: Let's got steal a bottle!
- Nathan Ford: No, no, no, no. We... not steal. No, no. I mean, a wine like that, a Thomas Jefferson bottle, that collection is gonna be heavily insured. So if we steal it, I mean, we're just gonna be handing him a fat insurance payout. No, I think we need to maybe ride with him through the loan. If his wine collection is the collateral, let's make the collection worthless.
- Sophie Devereaux: If the bank finds out the collection's a fraud, Madigan loses the winery.
- Alec Hardison: Yeah, we just take a two hundred year old bottle of grape juice and turn it into two-buck chuck.
- Nathan Ford: Let's go fake a bottle.
