    Episode 39: The Vanishing at the Fair


    At the Santa Cruz County Fair, the woman who headed the art exhibit has vanished without a trace. Detective Billy Armi is called in and finds that Flinx — a mild-mannered Flight 1080 caller known for his pencil sketches and fair-minded ideas — may have created artwork that listens, remembers, and takes revenge. When Armi inspects the hall after dark, he discovers the woman’s scream etched into Flinx’s drawings, and even a twisted reflection of her crawling inside his own painting. What begins as a disappearance unravels into a chilling reminder: some art doesn’t just imitate life… it punishes it.

    ep 38- The Return of The Fence Ripper


    In Episode 38, Detective Billy Armi investigates the shocking return of the Fence Ripper — but this time, the target isn’t just fences. Manny, the humble and well-loved former chief of police, is found where his backyard border once stood. What begins as a case of stolen posts turns into a story of obsession, ritual, and community loss. With Cypress Coast Fence, Righetti’s Hardware, and even a viral beaver video creeping into the mix, Armi follows the trail of fences stacked like soldiers — and a killer who thinks he’s tearing down lies.

    Downtown Owl, a familiar voice on Flight 1080, is found dead in the Watsonville gazebo — his body drained of blood. Detective Billy Armi is called in to investigate, and what he uncovers is stranger than fiction. The infamous Killer Klowns from Outer Space have returned, and the streets of Watsonville are littered with cotton candy cocoons, acid pies, and balloon animals with sharp teeth. While locals cheer, thinking it’s a Hollywood sequel, the body count climbs. Can Detective Armi stop the carnival of carnage before Watsonville becomes the clowns’ permanent sideshow?
