00:00Madison!
00:01It's early!
00:02I'm coming.
00:03Hello.
00:04When I said we could do with a couple more indoor plants, I meant like a small peace
00:10lily room.
00:11You didn't do this?
00:12How could I do this?
00:14Why would I do this?
00:15Morning, sis!
00:17Well?
00:18G'day.
00:19I slept on your couch, hope it was okay.
00:23You didn't buy some magic beans from a farmer and like, spill them on the carpet, did ya?
00:28Look, I can explain.
00:35What time do you call this?
00:38Don't start with me o'clock.
00:40Okay.
00:41You've got something in your...
00:44Oh.
00:45Oh.
00:46Will stole some trees while he retrieved them.
00:49And you were helping him?
00:51Absolutely not.
00:52You better have them out of my living room by the time I get home.
00:55Your living room?
00:56It's like an enchanted forest.
00:58I'm expecting bird life and deer to wander through.
01:01Sounds like you need a distraction.
01:03Oh God, please distract me.
01:05Meet Tiffany Maddox, young businesswoman of the year and woman to watch at the Auckland
01:10Corporate Awards.
01:11Seems too young to have achieved so much.
01:13Yeah, she crammed a lot into her life.
01:15Before she died?
01:16What happened?
01:17Two months ago she was found floating in a fresh water fish tank at the aquarium where she was general manager.
01:23Captain Pete's underwater wonderland.
01:25They've got sharks, rays, tropical fish.
01:29You know what they don't have?
01:31Urukandji jellyfish.
01:33The smallest and most deadly in the world.
01:36This guy's Australian, not even found in New Zealand.
01:40And yet here you are holding one.
01:43Tiffany died of multiple stings leading to a fatal brain hemorrhage.
01:48That little critter was in her clothing.
01:50So somebody imported an almost invisible murder weapon.
01:53Any idea how or who?
01:55Pretty good idea of the who.
01:59Well, hello.
02:00Find on the job.
02:02Jake Brookwell is a marine biologist.
02:04I mean, seriously, hello.
02:06Who has the knowledge and the means to bring this jellyfish into the country.
02:11In the weeks before Tiffany died, Jake had been on a trip to North Queensland.
02:15Dammit, Jake.
02:17Motive?
02:18Plenty.
02:19Tiffany was hired by the aquarium to rebrand.
02:22In other words, cut costs.
02:24Oh, she let him go?
02:25She replaced him with his younger and cheaper 2IC.
02:29Susette Crumb.
02:31So if everything's pointing to Jake, how come he's still going freely about his business
02:35looking good and I won't search him?
02:37Because the murder weapon is a jellyfish.
02:39The team searched his boat twice, but we can't find anything that's more than circumstantial.
02:44Alright, better leave it to me.
02:45Really, Lexan?
02:47Now you are so shallow.
02:49How very dare you.
02:51I'm interested in the jellyfish.
02:53Sure you are.
02:55Tiffany had worked for a supermarket brand, sports shoes, and completely modernised an energy drink company, which she won an award for.
03:17All before she was 30.
03:19But shoes and drinks.
03:21I mean, it's not like she was an expert in aquariums.
03:24Oh, he is very aesthetically pleasing.
03:27Also, the prime suspect, Jake Brookwell.
03:30He has a very nice...
03:33a boat.
03:35And also a video blog about sharks and sea mammals.
03:40Oh, I love a sea mammal.
03:42Shall we take a look?
03:43You know what I love?
03:44When the suspect tells you exactly how they feel about the victim.
03:48Okay, so this was a sanctuary and a sea animal rescue organisation founded by the great Peter Turlington.
03:54Who was a respected marine biologist.
03:57Not a pirate.
03:59Captain Pete's underwater wonderland.
04:01Who is Captain Pete?
04:03And whose idea was it to bring on some idiot with a marketing degree so she could destroy his legacy?
04:08Okay, so he was a little irked.
04:11Did not hold back a bit.
04:13Which isn't smart if you're about to murder the person you're ranting about.
04:17I suppose it could have been a heat of a moment, Crone?
04:20Tell that to the jellyfish who travelled 4,000 kilometres from northern Queensland to a tank at Captain Pete's.
04:25Yeah, true.
04:27And then is Tiffany's husband, Evan.
04:30Oh, the restaurant owner.
04:32He went to sleep the night of thinking that his wife was working late.
04:36And didn't realise that he was alone until the police knocked on his door the next morning.
04:41He's in hospital and she works later than him.
04:44Why don't you take the widower? I'll take the marine biologist.
04:47Sounds like a fun Friday night.
04:49Madison, can you stop with jokes about boys?
04:54Madison?
05:04Jake Brookwell?
05:08I'm Alexa Crowe.
05:09Let me guess, huh?
05:10Well, retired.
05:12I'm just here with a few questions, if you don't mind.
05:20I heard this, but I didn't believe it.
05:22Which fool decided that Udukanji would make a good exhibit?
05:25Yeah, good question. Here's another one.
05:27Which marine biologist went to North Queensland two weeks before Tiffany was killed by this fish from North Queensland?
05:35I went to Queensland to assess coral. Not to catch marine wildlife. It's like the opposite of what I stand for.
05:42So you say in your blog. But you must understand how suspicious this looks.
05:46Tiffany made you redundant. You rant about her on your blog.
05:50And the next thing, she's killed by a fish. And who knows about fish? You, the fish guy.
05:54Did you just call me the fish guy?
05:57Yes. And I take it back. And I don't want to be called the murder woman.
06:02Do people call you that?
06:04Sometimes behind my back.
06:06Perhaps that's why I'm still single, I don't know.
06:11Look, I'm not great with change. I live alone on a boat because most people annoy me.
06:18Fair. But in your expert opinion, how did an Udukanji end up in an Auckland tourist attraction?
06:27It wasn't meant to be a tourist attraction. It was a rescue centre for rehabilitation breeding.
06:33But worthy causes aren't profitable, so they hired Tiffany.
06:37She knows about cash flow, apparently. Maybe she thought a dangerous jellyfish would bring in the crowds.
06:43So look at this. I mean, no offence jellyfish, but I just don't see you as a star of attraction.
06:49Try again, fish guy.
06:51How about I wouldn't have a clue?
06:53Some surplus to requirements at the aquarium.
06:56And somehow someone's died and I'm the one that's getting the blame.
07:06Excuse me.
07:08Oh, please wait to be seated, doll. Parallel tech character.
07:16Oh, I don't need a table. Are you Evan Maddox?
07:19Obviously.
07:20I wonder if we could just have a quick chat.
07:22Yeah, I don't do freebies for influencers.
07:25If you want to post about my establishment, make a reservation. Wait time is about six weeks.
07:28Like I said, I'm not after a booking. I just have some questions about your recent bereavement.
07:34I don't do reporters.
07:36It's just as well, I'm not one of those either.
07:39I guess you work crazy hours.
07:41Yeah, it goes with the territory.
07:43Well, your wife worked even crazier hours?
07:46It wasn't unusual for you to be home before her.
07:49Tiff liked to burn the midnight oil.
07:51That's why she was so successful at her job.
07:54Oh, that's nice.
07:57But you and Tiffany have always been fish fans?
08:00No, it was a gift.
08:02From Tiffany?
08:03From a client.
08:05Is there anyone you can think of who might have had a problem with Tiffany?
08:09I'm sure she pissed a few people off over the years in her line of work.
08:13Corporate downsizing.
08:15Okay, fair.
08:16But death by sea creature is very specific.
08:21I don't know what happened.
08:24But you do want to?
08:26Of course I do.
08:27I have a full restaurant out there.
08:31I lost my wife.
08:33But I have to keep going.
08:34Keep smiling.
08:37I don't have the luxury to fall apart.
08:42Thank you for looking into this.
08:44Hope you find an answer.
08:46One second.
08:47Excuse me.
08:48I'm so sorry.
08:49Hello.
08:50Uh, Alexa.
08:51And Madison.
08:52Suzette, how do you do?
08:53I'm the head aquarist here.
08:54And we still haven't hired a new general manager.
08:55So I'm currently that too.
08:56Thanks for making time for us.
08:57No, thank you for being here.
08:59I miss Tiffany so much.
09:00She really believed in me.
09:01And we were on our way to becoming a really kick ass team.
09:04Yeah, it must be hard for a head aquarist to also be in charge of the business side of things.
09:09Even just the whole interview process to replace me.
09:12I'm the head aquarist.
09:13I'm the head aquarist here.
09:14And we still haven't hired a new general manager.
09:15So I'm currently that too.
09:16Thanks for making time for us.
09:17No, thank you for being here.
09:18I miss Tiffany so much.
09:19She really believed in me and we were on our way to becoming a really kick ass team.
09:22It must be hard for a head aquarist to also be in charge of the business side of things.
09:25Even just the whole interview process to replace Tiff.
09:30When I haven't even been able to bring myself to clear her desk.
09:34Her husband hasn't been able to collect her things?
09:37He's a busy guy.
09:40Tell me about Jake Brookwell.
09:42Jake was old school.
09:44He never wanted to compromise.
09:46And that's what Tiff needed from us.
09:48All of us.
09:49So you think the police are right to focus on him?
09:5299% of me is sure that Jake had nothing to do with what happened to Tiff.
09:58And the other 1%?
10:00Is wondering how on earth that Erikanji got into our tank.
10:15Oh, this is where she was found.
10:17Sorry, I have to take this one.
10:22Oh, it is very calming in here.
10:25We should get an aquarium for home.
10:27We already have a rainforest.
10:30But imagine, just taking time to be mindful.
10:33Watching the little fish go back and forth.
10:35Change the screen server.
10:36Okay, cool.
10:37I can definitely do that.
10:39Okay, thanks. Bye.
10:41Hey.
10:42Alexa, meet Waru, the bad boy of the aquarium.
10:46Hello, Waru.
10:48He's been driving us crazy lately.
10:50Escaping at night and raiding the mollusk tank.
10:53Hey, what's up with the spiny sea dragons?
10:55The tank is empty.
10:57Sometimes they like to hide.
10:58I'll check with the junior I've just hired.
11:01They might be in the vet room.
11:04Oh, my God.
11:07Waru.
11:08Yeah, what did I tell you?
11:10You're such a brat.
11:12I hear you folk are more intelligent than a doll.
11:16Yeah, they have nine brains.
11:17One for each arm.
11:18They can use tools and build shelters and solve puzzles.
11:23But they need a lot of stimulation and entertainment.
11:26You and me both, Waru.
11:29So, did you see anything that night?
11:33Let me know.
11:38Suzette seemed worried that those spiny sea dragons weren't in their tank.
11:42Here's a theory.
11:43Could Jake Brookwell be liberating sea creatures from the aquarium?
11:47And Tiffany busted him doing it.
11:50Hey, Reuben.
11:51Do you have any pets?
11:52Hospital hours don't allow for that.
11:54What about a fish?
11:55I like my fish on a plate with lemon and pepper.
11:59Just don't tell this guy.
12:01Hey, Jake.
12:03You know Jake?
12:04The re-biotist.
12:05Of course.
12:06It's my neighbour.
12:09Less than one day.
12:11You can follow me around.
12:16I'm a regular at Reuben's.
12:17I've never seen you before.
12:19Yeah, I spend a lot of time on expeditions.
12:21But, I always take a couple of loaves of Reuben's sourdough whenever I set off.
12:25Oh, please.
12:26You're shameless.
12:28Reuben obviously told you that I make the sourdough.
12:31You make Reuben's sourdough?
12:33Which is why you said it.
12:34To win me over.
12:36What makes you think I'm trying to win you over?
12:39Well, you should because I'm conducting a murder investigation and you're a person of interest.
12:43To tell the truth, Alexa.
12:45You're pretty interested in yourself.
12:48Look, Jake.
12:49Fish have gone missing from the aquarium.
12:52They weren't rescued by a rebel marine biologist, will they?
12:55What fish?
12:56Spiny sea dragons.
12:58Well, they were bred there.
12:59They're only a year old.
13:01Is it true that the octopus gets out of his enclosure on a regular basis?
13:06Man, he's such a character.
13:07He used to squirt water at Tiffany whenever she walked past.
13:10Promise I didn't teach him to do that.
13:13You know, you really ought to stop talking about how much he disliked Tiffany.
13:16Look, I was perfectly pleasant.
13:19Too pleasant, according to a weasel of a husband.
13:22Evan Maddox?
13:23He's an up himself douchebag.
13:25So he thought there was something going on between you and Tiffany?
13:28Told me it was wrong.
13:30Might have also laughed in his face.
13:39Will?
13:42Will Crowe!
13:43He's not here.
13:44Alexa, I have someone I want you to meet.
13:47This is my pet, Sprat Damon.
13:50Are you ready for pets?
13:52You don't do well with houseplants.
13:54Even I can look after a goldfish.
13:57So, tell me about Jake.
13:59What did he say?
14:01Where's Molly?
14:02The forearms are the forearms.
14:05Tiffany's husband, Evan Maddox, accused Jake of having an affair with her.
14:09Oh, and were they? Did they?
14:11No.
14:12I can't see it.
14:13He's not a fan.
14:14Not even in a sexy, I love you, I hate you way?
14:17Who does that?
14:18Oh, enemies to lovers is one of my favourite tropes.
14:21Along with friends to lovers, forced proximity and forbidden love.
14:25Anywho, Jake wasn't interested in Tiffany, but that didn't stop Evan from making the accusation.
14:31He could be the type to have a jealous streak, for sure.
14:34But exactly how jealous?
14:35Evan Maddox, this is my friend Alexa Crowe.
14:53And I'm assuming you still don't have a reservation?
14:55Why did you accuse Jake Brookwell of sleeping with your wife?
14:59Wow.
15:01You told the police that you and Tiffany were happy.
15:04That doesn't seem like the actions of someone in a secure relationship.
15:07There's no way I'm having this conversation here.
15:10In my stadium.
15:11On my stage.
15:12In my courtroom.
15:13So you and Tiffany weren't on good terms when she died.
15:19I was devastated when I lost Tiff.
15:22Then I found something out.
15:25Out of respect for her memory, I wasn't going to tell anyone.
15:28But a few days after Tiff's funeral, I went to her office at the aquarium to collect her stuff.
15:33And I found that she had a second phone.
15:38Do you still have it?
15:40Yeah.
15:42You'll have to charge it.
15:43It's filled with messages between her and some Randy guy.
15:46Do you have a name?
15:48Randy.
15:49His name's Randy Ellison.
15:50He's from Canada.
15:52Oh, an online thing, man.
15:54The bathroom's on the whole doll.
15:55This is the private office.
15:57Oh, yeah. Sorry.
16:00And you get a sign for that door.
16:01So until you found out about this Randy person, you thought Tiffany was 100% faithful to you.
16:08Correct.
16:10But you accused Jake Brookwell of sleeping with her.
16:14She'd started a new job.
16:17She's looking late every night.
16:19Have you seen the guy?
16:21She has.
16:23So we're back to not being on good terms with Tiff before she died.
16:27Okay, fine.
16:28I...
16:30I knew something was off.
16:32Husband's instincts.
16:34And now I can't even ask her what I did to deserve.
16:38You still have your wedding photo and pride a place though.
16:42Nice wedding ring.
16:44White gold.
16:47Same as mine.
16:48I just wish you'd keep me in the guts from going to grave.
17:00Hello?
17:02Follow the trail of breadcrumbs, Hansel.
17:05Wow, you weren't kidding about the enchanted forest.
17:09And you got a fish.
17:11Madison did.
17:12Sprat Damon.
17:14Hey, check out this picture of Tiffany's hand.
17:17Notice anything?
17:19Not apart from the nasty jellyfish stinks?
17:22She's not wearing her wedding ring.
17:24Ah.
17:25And according to her husband, Tiffany was having an affair.
17:28He never mentioned that in his statements.
17:30He only recently found out.
17:31Nasty surprise when he went through her...
17:34Burner phone.
17:35And discovered Randy from Vancouver.
17:39Randy's got away with words.
17:41So does Tiff.
17:43Be good to locate that wedding ring, eh?
17:45Yeah, I'll take another look at the victim's property list.
17:48So this online lover guy.
17:50Madison's tracking him down as we speak.
17:51Yeah, okay, mate.
17:52All right, we'll get it sorted.
17:53Okay.
17:54They'll be gone in a couple of hours.
17:55Found another buyer.
17:56Bye.
17:57Bye.
17:58Bye.
17:59Bye.
18:00Bye.
18:01Bye.
18:02Bye.
18:03Bye.
18:04Bye.
18:05Bye.
18:06Bye.
18:07Bye.
18:08Bye.
18:09Bye.
18:10Bye.
18:11Bye.
18:13Bye.
18:14Bye.
18:15Bye.
18:16Bye.
18:17Bye.
18:18Bye.
18:19Bye.
18:20Bye.
18:21Right.
18:22No, not really.
18:23I'm selling for less than I paid for them.
18:24You want me to go and see his dodgy client and rough him up a bit?
18:28Ooh, like in a police capacity?
18:30No, not in a police capacity.
18:32Nah.
18:33You kind of didn't get what he ordered.
18:35These aren't native New Zealand trees, they're doppelgangers.
18:38Tried to rip them off.
18:40Well no, I got ripped off.
18:41I thought I was buying native New Zealand trees.
18:43And in my defence, it's a common mistake.
18:44I google it.
18:46Well, then it's fine.
18:47So you got scammed by dodgy suppliers?
18:49It happened.
18:50happened. Yeah, but now the client's accusing me. They look me up. I don't have a leg to stand on.
18:54That's not fair. People can change. Yeah, but should they? That's the question I keep asking.
19:05Hey, do you want to go and rough up these dodgy suppliers instead? Happily. Except they ghosted
19:10me. They're on Facebook Marketplace. I know. It was a good deal, right? Too good to be true and
19:16right. Aside from this one very lonely Facebook profile with only two friends,
19:25I can't find Randy from Vancouver. No online presence at all? Nothing. So he's a catfish.
19:30Yeah, but you saw the message from Tiffany about how nice it was to meet Randy and to
19:34do other things to Randy. They met in real life, so not a catfish, but a fake name.
19:41I'll keep looking. And did you get the pics I airdropped to you, the papers from Suzette's desk?
19:46There's one that looks like a profit report and a bunch of invoices, but I'm not sure if there's
19:50anything you saw. Me neither. I don't think I know someone who can shed some light.
19:55I bet you do. Madison, now what do we say? No giggling about boys.
20:02No, I'm not giggling. I'm just teasing. Besides, I'm not making an excuse to see him.
20:07He invited me to lunch.
20:10What?
20:10What?
20:10What?
20:10What?
20:10What?
20:16What about this one? Anything out of the ordinary there?
20:22Bet bills have gone down.
20:25Is that good?
20:26Good. Yeah, if you're no longer focusing on rescue and rehab, but trying to become something
20:32of a circus, that's sure.
20:34In your opinion, was Tiffany the sort of person to have a raunchy online affair?
20:38You know, if they're cutting costs like this, I get Tiffany wouldn't care, but Suzette, I
20:45train Suzette.
20:48And what if Suzette wasn't okay with the cutbacks? You see the sort of person to take a stand
20:53to disagree with Tiffany?
20:55Now, Suzette did it?
20:58I'm going to ask the question.
21:00Okay, so does that mean I'm off the hook or...?
21:03There are other people on my radar.
21:07It's good when you meet just a potential murder suspect.
21:11My friend Madison says that I have to expand my social circle, so I'm here.
21:19Fine.
21:26How are you enjoying the view, Spratt Damon? Is everything to your liking?
21:30Thank goodness, it's so nice to move without a branch in my face.
21:34Well, that was a long lunch.
21:36Now I have you in my face.
21:37Did Jake get a good grilling?
21:40You know, this catfish, not catfish thing, the messages just don't match up with the picture
21:46of Tiffany I'm getting.
21:47What, nice girls can't be naughty?
21:49No, that's not what I mean.
21:50It's just...
21:52Seems like she was too busy to be naughty.
21:54Yeah, I can relate.
21:57And...
21:58You're right.
21:59To tell.
22:01Tiffany's IP address and Randy's IP address are the same place.
22:07And I bet I can guess where.
22:12Whoa!
22:14No, no, no.
22:15This is a staff-only area.
22:17Good evening, Evan.
22:18Put that down and get out.
22:21After you tell me this,
22:23why did you invent a fake internet lover for your wife?
22:27Sorry?
22:27I write months' worth of fictional texts.
22:30You really missed your calling as an erotic fiction writer.
22:34Get away from my wine collection.
22:35Oh!
22:36Ah!
22:37A lot of fingers.
22:38You know, sometimes I am so clumsy.
22:39Please, please, just give me the 19th century older you are.
22:43You know what makes me clumsy?
22:46People not telling the truth.
22:47No!
22:47You can't even get that bottle in New Zealand.
22:50Do you have any idea the strings I had to pull?
22:52Your wife was not having an affair.
22:55And someone wanted to make it look like she was.
22:58Why?
22:58Why would anyone do that?
23:00Well, you tell me,
23:01because guess where Tiffany and Randy did their sexing from?
23:03How the hell would I know?
23:05Right here, Evan.
23:07Your restaurant.
23:09Your office.
23:09You created a murder suspect.
23:13Randy from Vancouver doesn't exist.
23:14Wait, did you not know this?
23:22This is news to you.
23:25So if you didn't write the fake messages,
23:27then who did?
23:29I don't know.
23:29Liar.
23:32No, no, not the 98 Gannett Ridge.
23:34Oh, the 98 Gannett Ridge?
23:36Okay, fine, fine.
23:38There is someone else that has access to my office.
23:41It could have been her.
23:43Finally.
23:44Who's there?
23:47Come on, Madison.
23:48We've got a mermaid to catch.
23:51Won't be a sack.
23:52Want a coffee here or get takeaway?
23:55Might as well have it here.
24:02What did you know?
24:03I just checked the kids' entertainment section of Captain Pete's website and his mermaid is...
24:09We're out of milk.
24:10Let's just go to Reuben's.
24:12Okay, I'll sneak my sunglasses.
24:13Okay.
24:14Allow me.
24:18Don't do it, Rachel.
24:19So, Angel Strawn is a drama student who works here part-time and Evan told you they were
24:26having an affair for about six months?
24:28And Angel created this whole catfish scenario before Tiffany died.
24:33Probably hoping that Evan would leave his wife for her.
24:36And she planted the burner phone in Tiffany's desk.
24:38But Evan didn't see anything that she created until after Tiffany died.
24:44So did Angel get tired of waiting.
24:46Decided to get rid of the wife.
24:47Well, you really think she's a serious suspect?
24:49I talked to her.
24:51Oh, my God.
24:52That's her.
24:54A mermaid eating pork and pastry.
24:57She is so wrong.
25:02Well, I guess she got the heads up from Evan.
25:06Do you want to go or should I?
25:09Yeah, I can go.
25:18I just have some questions about Tiffany Maddox.
25:22Why?
25:23Why do you want to talk to me?
25:24Because he was sleeping with Tiffany's husband.
25:26What the actual?
25:28Who told you that?
25:29Tiffany's husband.
25:32I'm not here to judge you.
25:33Well, not for that anyway.
25:35But maybe for the fake profiles you created and the messages you sent.
25:39Tiffany and Randy from Vancouver?
25:41It's quite the steamy romance.
25:45Really?
25:46Tiffany was having a thing with the Canadian guy.
25:49You wanted Evan to leave his wife, so you pulled a double catfish.
25:53Look, who hasn't pulled the old double catfish?
25:55And it's really not a thing that normal people do.
25:57Yeah, well, look, it doesn't even matter.
25:59Because Evan never snooped into her messages.
26:01And now he's upset because he thinks Tiffany actually cheated on him.
26:04That's what you wanted him to think.
26:06Yeah, but when Tiffany was still alive, so he'd leave her.
26:10And how do you know that Evan only saw the messages after Tiffany died?
26:13What if he did see them just before?
26:15Well, then he would have left her.
26:17Or killed her.
26:18Excuse you.
26:20Evan didn't do that.
26:22And you're so sure because what?
26:25Because I was with him that night.
26:28In his office.
26:30We made love.
26:31And you were together all night?
26:33We fell asleep.
26:34And when we woke, it was morning.
26:36And Evan freaked because he thought he'd have some explaining to do.
26:39But when he got home, Tiffany wasn't there.
26:41There you go.
26:46No second helpings for you, Buster.
26:49And get that glint out of your eyes.
26:53She'll never even notice.
26:57Okay, so Angel is a bit of a confused mermaid.
27:01But it does seem that she and Evan are each other's alibis.
27:04So they're not working as a team?
27:06No, I don't think...
27:07What was our fish doing there?
27:08Sprat Damon, you're a pit.
27:12But that's not Sprat Damon.
27:14It is.
27:15I'm telling you that it's not.
27:17For goodness sake, Madison.
27:19How can you possibly tell?
27:20Or goldfish look alike.
27:22Because Sprat Damon went down the toilet.
27:24Yeah.
27:25He was floating belly up last night, so I flushed him.
27:27You did what?
27:30Did you just try to deceive me, Alexa?
27:33Deceive you?
27:33You thought that Chowder had eaten Sprat Damon
27:36and you could just replace him with another goldfish
27:39and I'd never know.
27:40Hello?
27:40Have I told you lately that your investigative skills
27:42have really come along?
27:44Alexa, Crow, you are busted.
27:46I'm not going to let you forget it.
27:48Chowder.
27:49What's going on?
27:50Oh, just caught Alexa lying.
27:52That is very harsh.
27:53About a dead fish that apparently leapt from the toilet bowl
27:55back into its tank.
27:56You should just be grateful that I care enough
27:58to protect your feelings.
27:59Can I just jump in here?
28:01Yes, Harry.
28:01Please go on.
28:02I'm all ears.
28:03There was an incident last night.
28:04Someone broke into the aquarium.
28:07It was your mate, Jake Brookwell.
28:13I was worried about the marine life,
28:16so I went in to check in on them.
28:17You couldn't do that in regular business hours?
28:19Not if I wanted to access all areas.
28:21The thing is, Jake,
28:24if I'm trying to prove that someone did
28:26or didn't commit a murder,
28:28then it would be good if they would fly under the radar
28:30just a little bit.
28:32Well, I didn't kill anyone.
28:33You must know that.
28:35How must I?
28:37Well, because...
28:39I'm not sorry for breaking in, Alexa.
28:44I think there's a fish missing.
28:46Only one?
28:47Yeah, that I noticed.
28:49Stephanie is a beautiful blue damselfish.
28:52She comes all the way from Palawan in the Philippines.
28:55So you haven't been at the aquarium for a while.
28:57Could Stephanie have died?
28:58Well, no.
28:59If fish are dying,
29:00there should be reports, autopsies,
29:02to see why.
29:03You don't just flush them down the loo.
29:05I'm kidding, obviously.
29:09Come with me.
29:10Where?
29:11Well, murder woman wants to see fish guy
29:13in his natural habitat.
29:15Come on.
29:16Let's go.
29:18I'm going to catch up with you in a minute, eh?
29:27Hi, Angel.
29:28I'm Alexa Crowe.
29:30I know who you are.
29:31Your friend said some pretty awful things
29:33about my boyfriend yesterday.
29:35Oh, your boyfriend?
29:36Evan Maddox.
29:38So he forgave you for the catfish stuff?
29:41We had an amazing talk last night,
29:43and he got that I only did it
29:44because I loved him so much.
29:48Hey, I like your earrings.
29:51Thanks.
29:52They're basically the most expensive thing I own.
29:54He even knows a guy who can get him a deal.
29:58So the mermaid finally got her man.
30:00Stephanie's tank.
30:11Uh-huh.
30:13Was that her then?
30:15No, that's not.
30:17It's male for a start.
30:20All right.
30:21So what if something did happen to the damn squish,
30:24and somebody maybe just replaced it,
30:27hoping no one would notice?
30:29Well, who would do something like that?
30:31Someone who meant well.
30:33I mean, not me, obviously.
30:36Oh, shoot.
30:37A little letter for the warning, but...
30:38What warning?
30:39Stay away.
30:41Bye.
30:41Hey!
30:42Hey!
30:43Hey!
30:43Jake!
30:45Jake!
30:48That octopus is a good shark.
30:51I know you're loyal, but come on, Waru.
30:54I was only going to warn Jake
30:55that the board are thinking about officially trespassing him.
30:59Well, he was just trying to help me out.
31:01I had some questions about fish turnover.
31:04I can answer those.
31:06How did the blue damselfish turn from female to male?
31:10What's this got to do with Tiffany?
31:11Maybe nothing, maybe everything.
31:17The species is dichromatic.
31:20So males and females are different colours.
31:22And so Stephanie was a juvenile when she first arrived here,
31:26and then she suddenly started to develop this yellowy-orangey tail,
31:31and we realise...
31:32She is he.
31:34Hmm.
31:34Stephanie became Stefano.
31:36Hmm.
31:37Ah.
31:38That is bullcrap.
31:40Stephanie wasn't a juvenile.
31:41She had a black spot on the base of her hindmost dorsal ray in clear fins.
31:45I mean, any half-decent hobbyist could look at her and tell you that.
31:48So either Suzette doesn't know what she's talking about,
31:51or she's counting on me not to know what she's talking about.
31:56Hey, where does Captain Pete's get their fish?
31:58We had an Aussie company who offered tank bread species.
32:02Or we'd catch individuals sustainably.
32:04Is it expensive to buy only tank bread?
32:06Um, about three times the price.
32:08Why?
32:09Just wondering.
32:10How did it go with the fish guy?
32:12He doesn't much like being cool, that.
32:15This is a peppermint angelfish.
32:17Status symbol for high-end home aquariums.
32:20It's pretty.
32:21Well, I wouldn't be letting you anywhere near him.
32:23He's worth $30,000.
32:24What?
32:25If you can find one.
32:26That is one expensive cat treat for chowder.
32:29He was innocent.
32:30He's capable.
32:32Well, anyway, I was thinking that maybe Tiffany got herself involved in something...
32:36Do not say fishy.
32:39Shady.
32:40I was going to say shady.
32:51Hey, Suzette.
32:52We're closed.
32:53Do you mind?
32:55Look, do you work 24-7 or what?
32:59You were close to Tiffany.
33:01Was she selling fish?
33:04What?
33:05Were you doing it together?
33:07Are you still doing it?
33:08Is Jake putting you up to this?
33:10Nobody puts me up to anything.
33:13It's just Jake knows his fish.
33:15And Stephanie and Stefano are not the same guy.
33:21Is there something you want to confess?
33:23Yes.
33:24Let's go somewhere nice.
33:26You can tell me all about it.
33:28I think Waru has been stealing more than just crabs.
33:31You're blaming the octopus.
33:34About two weeks ago, I arrived in the morning to find that we were down half a dozen crabs.
33:39And no Stephanie.
33:41And no Stephanie.
33:45Has Waru ever eaten another fish?
33:47No.
33:47But Waru did steal my watch off of my desk a couple of months ago.
33:54I found it in his tank.
33:56What does he have against you?
33:57I took his best friend's job, I guess.
34:01Look, I know Jake thinks that Tiff was all cost-cutting and no ethics.
34:04But that's not true.
34:07You know, not long after she started, there were these cheaper, newer supplies that approached her.
34:11And when I told her about their practices, she got it.
34:14She said no.
34:15And did Tiffany know that Evan was cheating on her?
34:18Well, he was.
34:21How do you know?
34:22His new girlfriend told me.
34:24The mermaid.
34:25Are you serious?
34:26Yeah, she had her suspicions.
34:31She was sure he was lying about all those late nights here.
34:36The mermaid, really?
34:38Tiff hired her.
34:39She...
34:40Thanks, Suzette.
34:56Hey.
35:17I was reading this article about you and your mates.
35:20It said you can differentiate humans.
35:23Like you can like or dislike us.
35:26And cats can do that, too.
35:28My child is an excellent judge of character.
35:32But anyway, this article was talking about one octopus who squirted the same lab assistant every time he passed.
35:40I mean, he didn't like him.
35:42Might have been a reason.
35:43Maybe there wasn't one.
35:46I mean, some people can be a bit annoying.
35:48Yeah.
35:55What?
35:59Hey, what's up?
36:02What's up, Rebecca?
36:08What you got there?
36:11Hey?
36:11What is it?
36:12Oh, good boy.
36:24Rosebank Business Park.
36:27Thanks, Waru.
36:29You're the second best co-investigator I ever had.
36:32Thanks, Waru.
36:48Thanks, Waru.
36:48Thanks, Waru.
37:05Thanks, Waru.

38:35wine someone mentions they're looking for let's say a blue damsel fish and you let slip that your
38:42wife runs an aquarium are you with me so far so you would take tiffany's access card to get in there
