Almost Paradise - Old Times

Setting up events for the season finale, “Old Times” features Alex (Christian Kane) looking into a murder at the Villegas Casino after both Ann (Max Collins) and the local authorities asked him to stay away from this case. Alex traces the unusual style of the murder back to that of a longtime assassin who he links to an elderly hotel guest (Kim Knuckey) and his wife (Carolyn Bock). What he doesn’t realize is the elderly couple are stringing him along and that he, not Ann, is their target. Alex’s interactions with the couple, while honestly liking the pair but attempting to pump them for information, are the highlights of the episode.
