Ep. 25: Fujita investigates a Van Gogh painting in a basement bar during a police raid.
25

On a rainy night, Fujita takes shelter in the basement of Grain Bar, where only the owner and one female customer remain. Police wait outside for backup. After tasting aged Irish whisky, Fujita notices a copy of Van Gogh's Chair and offers to clean it for more drinks. He spots a different pipe in the artwork. The customer explains the artist was her father’s friend, who gifted him a pipe before they estranged and died. Fujita realizes the pipe in the painting is the one she bought her father, which he cherished for years. Approaching midnight, Fujita warns the owner about the police above, but the owner refuses to flee with customers present. As they leave, police raid the bar to arrest the owner for his involvement in a 100 million bank robbery years ago.
