4	!The Present
5	Olive is enjoying life at the convent, but the peaceful days are upended when one of the sisters turns up dead. Olive asks Emerson to investigate; he does, but brings along Ned and Chuck against her wishes. The three detectives, posing as Vatican special forces, discover that the late nun had been trying to artificially create the convent's white truffles, the source of its wealth.

7	!Tropes
8	* AllGermansAreNazis: Invoked and averted. Emerson thinks that Hans is a bloodthirsty "Angry German"--but he's Swiss, and harmless.

14	* GilliganCut: Olive insists to Emerson that he not bring Ned or Chuck with him to the convent. Cut to Emerson, Ned, and Chuck at the convent.

17	* ImGoingToHellForThis: Ned's reaction to having to ''chase down and re-dead'' a nun.
18	%%* LiteralCliffhanger
19	%%* LiteralMetaphor
20	* MakingLoveInAllTheWrongPlaces: Alluded to, but not seen. For which Emerson is grateful.
21	* NunTooHoly: Sister [=LaRue=] is running a side-business selling truffles, having an affair with a chef and using him to smuggle in contraband. Aunt Lily hides her hip flask in a bible while visiting.
22	* SoundEffectBleep: A church bell obscures some convent-unfriendly language.
23	* SupremeChef: Hans. Plus, in a cute character note, we see that Ned is a ''serious'' foodie.
