Episode 15: Duet

Mitamura visits an art collector and finds that he is dying. Dalem, a shady art dealer prepares to privately auction the Vermeer painting "The Concert" for his boss Leone. It was stolen 15 years ago, from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and Scotland Yard's Inspector Roger Warner disguises himself as the art collector Mr Peters to trap Dalem. Meanwhile Fujita, with Mitamura disguised as his secretary, meet in London to retrieve the painting on behalf of the museum. Fujita proposes to the fake Mr Peters that they cooperate to keep the bid price low. They confirm the painting that is the original is not a fake by the famous forger Jacques van Meegeren. It is the original, but damaged, so Fujita offers $6 million for the painting which is worth a possible $100 million. Dalem is warned that Peters is a Scotland Yard agent and prepares to kill him, but Fujita pulls his fake gun and shoots first, appearing to kill him. It is revealed later that Fujita was acting for the collector who is dying, and after his death, he promised that the fully restored painting would be donated to a museum.
