The Doyle in the Iron Mask

Jake discovers there is a new, more successful, more handsome PI in St. John's. Jake uses his years as a blacksmith apprentice to make an iron mask for the gentleman. Jake then has Leslie arrest him on a false charge, and bribes the guards at the pen to keep the mask on the man, so that the ladies may never set their eyes on him.

His position once again secure, Jake goes about detecting with gusto, and while examining a metal pail for clues, gets his head stuck in the bucket. Jake is really stuck, but manages to make the best of it, getting custom sunglasses for the bucket.

Jake is better protected from the hits to the head he frequently gets, and uses the bucket to gain sympathy with the Florence Nightingale types, increasing his success with the ladies. Will Jake ever get the bucket off his head? Will St. John's ever find out about the PI in the iron mask? Yes and no (suspense is not the show's strong suit).
