Transcript
00:00:00And so, ladies and gentlemen, we have arrived at last to the person responsible for the
00:00:18murder of Mr. Kensington Culpepper.
00:00:22The killer is Loretta St. John.
00:00:27Am I correct, Fredericks?
00:00:31I'm sorry, Lady Alcott, but no.
00:00:33Seriously?
00:00:34I'm afraid so, Baroness.
00:00:36Would anyone else care to try?
00:00:40Em, this is my ninth case on Mystery Island, and I seriously cannot believe that I still
00:00:48haven't once correctly solved a whodunit.
00:00:50I'm sorry, Janie, but it is only a fictional murder.
00:00:54Well, yes, but given what I've told you, do you want to hazard a guess at who the killer
00:00:58is?
00:00:59I suppose I'd say, what's his name, the tennis player?
00:01:02Marcello.
00:01:03Yes, you're right.
00:01:04Okay, I need to ring off and go through security.
00:01:05Are you psychoanalyzing a real murderer today?
00:01:08That's why I'm here to find out.
00:01:17Inspector Hawthorne believes you killed your wife, Ken.
00:01:19Then he should prove it.
00:01:21Instead of wasting my time with a head shrinker.
00:01:24Psychiatrist.
00:01:25You don't like head shrinker?
00:01:26Only because it's inaccurate.
00:01:27I've no interest in making anyone's mind smaller.
00:01:32Funny.
00:01:34Did your wife make you feel like that, Ken?
00:01:39Because she was the breadwinner, did she make you feel small?
00:01:47Or should I say shrunk?
00:01:59I know people on the outside, Doctor.
00:02:05People that know you.
00:02:10And your family.
00:02:11Okay.
00:02:12Oi.
00:02:13Sorry.
00:02:14Did that make you feel small?
00:02:29Hi.
00:02:30I came straight from Heathrow as soon as I got your text.
00:02:46What did that monster say to you?
00:02:49He said he had people on the outside.
00:02:52People that know me and my family.
00:02:54That's it.
00:02:57You have got to stop working for the police.
00:02:59Believe it or not, I've had the same thought.
00:03:02But truly?
00:03:03I thought I was going to have to fight you on this.
00:03:06I actually told Hawthorne I need to take a break.
00:03:08Fantastic.
00:03:09Starting now.
00:03:11Too much on the docker already, but in three weeks.
00:03:14Splendid.
00:03:15You can come to Mystery Island.
00:03:18You're going back so soon?
00:03:20Oh, invitation for some of the investors.
00:03:22What do you say?
00:03:24I say I.
00:03:27I, unlike you, didn't inherit a disposable income.
00:03:31Oh, my treat.
00:03:32Jamie.
00:03:33Amelia.
00:03:34Just say you'll think about it.
00:03:36I leave in three weeks.
00:03:37You can tell me the day of.
00:03:38Mm-hmm.
00:03:39I cannot believe I said yes to this.
00:03:41Well, at risk of sounding like your mother, are you sure to take a vacation more than once
00:03:45every decade?
00:03:46It's only been six years, but that did sound like my mother.
00:03:48Well, be grateful I didn't add.
00:03:49You'll never have a full life without a man by your side.
00:03:51Oh!
00:03:52Sorry, I didn't see you there.
00:03:53No worries.
00:03:54Oh, you're American.
00:03:55Guilty.
00:03:56You, uh, on vacation as well?
00:03:57I think he lives here.
00:03:58How'd you reach that conclusion?
00:03:59Well, your turn for starters and the fact that you just got out of here.
00:04:01Oh, I'm sorry.
00:04:02I didn't see you there.
00:04:03No worries.
00:04:04You're American.
00:04:05Guilty.
00:04:06You, uh, on vacation as well?
00:04:07I think he lives here.
00:04:08How'd you reach that conclusion?
00:04:09Well, your turn for starters and the fact that you just got off a boat in the morning wearing
00:04:10a suit.
00:04:11Oh, I think you got it right, Em.
00:04:12She did, yeah.
00:04:13Well, you are going to crush it on Mystery Island.
00:04:14You want to Mystery Island?
00:04:15Yes.
00:04:16Have you ever been?
00:04:17Yeah.
00:04:18I am.
00:04:19Shame.
00:04:20I thought he wanted to carry on that conversation with you.
00:04:22Oh, I'm sorry.
00:04:23I'm sorry.
00:04:24I'm sorry.
00:04:25I'm sorry.
00:04:26I'm sorry.
00:04:27I'm sorry.
00:04:28I'm sorry.
00:04:29I'm sorry.
00:04:30I'm sorry.
00:04:31I'm sorry.
00:04:32I'm sorry.
00:04:33I'm sorry.
00:04:34I'm sorry.
00:04:35I'm sorry.
00:04:36I'm sorry.
00:04:37I'm sorry.
00:04:38I'm sorry.
00:04:39I'm sorry.
00:04:40I'm sorry.
00:04:41I'm sorry.
00:04:42I'm sorry.
00:04:43I heard waves from him with you.
00:04:44Byeコメント.
00:04:45Bye Rim.
00:04:46Bye.
00:04:47Bye better.
00:05:08Lady Alcott.
00:05:25Fredericks, this is...
00:05:27Dr. Amelia Priestley, yes.
00:05:29We received your email last night.
00:05:31Ladies, welcome to Mystery Island.
00:05:38Your luggage will be in your usual room, Baroness.
00:05:49Thank you, Fredericks.
00:05:52Let us show Dr. Priestley around, shall we, Janie?
00:05:55Yes, please.
00:05:57Our beautiful conservatory.
00:06:00Someone has a green thumb.
00:06:01That would be Lucia.
00:06:04Every group of visitors has a unique mystery to solve.
00:06:08Here's the opening weekend.
00:06:10Exactly five years ago today.
00:06:12Last time John was on the island.
00:06:15This weekend's for investors.
00:06:17How much did you put in?
00:06:19Only 5%, same as everyone else.
00:06:22Other than John, of course, he's got 80%.
00:06:25A wonderful place to research clues.
00:06:28Every Evelyn, Murtle, whodunit.
00:06:35All first editions.
00:06:40The dining room.
00:06:41Servatory, library, dining room.
00:06:55This game room is just missing the billiards table.
00:06:57It's pretty much clean.
00:06:58John Murtle, the founder of Mystery Island.
00:07:06Is he Evelyn, Murtle's son?
00:07:10Mrs. Murtle purchased this island over two decades ago and built this as a vacation home.
00:07:15Evelyn hoped that John would carry on her legacy writing whodunits.
00:07:20But when she died, John had the brilliant notion to turn this place into a destination vacation
00:07:26where people could live inside the murder mysteries,
00:07:30like the ones his mother could only put on the page.
00:07:34When do I get to meet him?
00:07:36Mr. Murtle lives in Montana.
00:07:37John hasn't come back to the island since the opening ceremony.
00:07:43He's eccentric, but of course genius.
00:07:47He has an IQ of 180.
00:07:49I imagine he told you that.
00:07:51What does that look mean you think he's lying?
00:07:54I think people who need to tell others how smart they are have a healthy ego
00:07:58which may be masking deep insecurities.
00:08:05Who's that?
00:08:06Ah.
00:08:08Pleased to meet you.
00:08:09Amelia.
00:08:10Carlos del Fuego.
00:08:12My wife, Morgan.
00:08:13How do you guys know each other?
00:08:14We were students together at Oxford.
00:08:16No way, so are Carlos and John.
00:08:18Are you and Mr. Murtle still close?
00:08:20I wouldn't go that far.
00:08:22Excuse us.
00:08:24He runs the biggest hedge fund in New York.
00:08:28Ah, looks like Phoenix made it.
00:08:30Is that?
00:08:31Phoenix Green.
00:08:32I don't mean to sound like a fangirl,
00:08:34but I've been doing your workout videos for years.
00:08:37Well, if so, you should show some skin.
00:08:42As I say in my workouts, flaunted.
00:08:45You've worked hard for it.
00:08:47Excuse me.
00:08:47I need to refresh my daiquiri.
00:08:52Oof.
00:08:53What did it they say?
00:08:54Never meet your heroes.
00:08:55I didn't know you knew her.
00:08:57I'm trying to forget I do.
00:08:58Carlos brought her in.
00:08:59This next invest is my favourite.
00:09:02Amelia.
00:09:02Jay Carrington Ellis, retired Royal Marine Sergeant Major.
00:09:05Pleasure.
00:09:06Do I call you Jay or Carrington?
00:09:08We like to call him Farge.
00:09:10He is the only four-time winner in the history of Mystery Island.
00:09:15Impressive.
00:09:17So there are two non-investors here then.
00:09:19Riley Peel.
00:09:20I'm with on the rink of beyond.com, the travel website.
00:09:23I'm here to cover for the anniversary weekend.
00:09:25So, Baroness, as one of the original investors, how involved are you in the running of Mystery Island?
00:09:31Well, not at all, thankfully.
00:09:33So just stay at home and collect the investment returns then.
00:09:41My fellow investors, friends, and our first-time visitors, let us celebrate the first five years of Mystery Island.
00:09:51May there be a hundred more.
00:09:52And to John, may he someday return to this magical place he built.
00:10:09Wow.
00:10:15Ladies and gentlemen, your rooms are ready.
00:10:19Please deposit your mobile phones in the basket.
00:10:21Is he serious?
00:10:23Oh, completely.
00:10:24That's to prevent cheating while accessing the internet.
00:10:27No.
00:10:28No one ever gets service here anyway.
00:10:31Oh.
00:10:38The game's afoot.
00:10:39Each room has a space for building a murder board, which we can use once we know who's dead.
00:10:49Mr. John Mariner requests your presence for supper at 7 p.m.
00:10:54Is John Mariner...
00:10:55It's a good chance he'll be the murder victim, played by an actor.
00:10:57Although sometimes the host is a misdirect and one of the staff ends up dead.
00:11:01Or sometimes the victim is a guest.
00:11:04But you know all the guests, not the reporter, and he seems like an actor to me.
00:11:09How much of the mystery is worked out in advance?
00:11:11Oh, I really don't know.
00:11:12That's John's department.
00:11:13He tailors every mystery to the specific people that are here, based on profiles we all provided.
00:11:21I didn't provide a profile.
00:11:23Oh, I took care of that for you.
00:11:24But I just decided to come here yesterday.
00:11:27Well, I took the precaution three weeks ago, in case you came to your senses.
00:11:31Which you did!
00:11:32Well, we'd better get dressed for dinner.
00:11:50Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Mariner has instructed us to play this.
00:12:20For you.
00:12:21Just like, and then there will be love.
00:12:37Good evening, all, and welcome.
00:12:39My name is John Mariner.
00:12:41I won't be joining you all tonight.
00:12:43I'm otherwise engaged with my old friend, Sheridan La Fanu.
00:12:47That's a clue.
00:12:47I don't know.
00:12:49He's an Irish mister.
00:12:50But remember, my door is always open to you.
00:12:53You need only knock thrice.
00:12:55Sheridan and I are occupied with a riddle, my friends.
00:12:59One that vexes me.
00:13:00I'm counting on you to solve it.
00:13:02Here we go.
00:13:03Hickory dickory dock.
00:13:05The mouse ran up the clock.
00:13:07The clock struck one.
00:13:08The mouse ran down.
00:13:10Hickory dickory dock.
00:13:11You may think you know the rhyme my voice has uttered, but look back.
00:13:17When a killer wishes to strike, beware.
00:13:20Timing, dear ladies and gentlemen, is your concern.
00:13:23The face has numbers set among numbers.
00:13:26It remained my business to save what us, mother and I, had built.
00:13:31But I fear that a wolf has crept into the flock.
00:13:35Set free your eyes and dare to see them, either man or woman.
00:13:39I can't tell.
00:13:41The next time is fire.
00:13:53The game is afoot.
00:13:57So, what do we do now?
00:13:59Eat, drink.
00:14:01Wait for someone to drop dead.
00:14:05Cool.
00:14:07Oh, I remember that.
00:14:12Different for me, Gregor.
00:14:15He's actually on a trap door.
00:14:17Oh, he's on.
00:14:20Oh, yes.
00:14:22Oh, yeah.
00:14:23So, here, here, here.
00:14:24Good luck.
00:14:32Yes, it's important.
00:14:33There's a lot going on.
00:14:35I like it.
00:14:35Where'd it be, Arby?
00:15:00No.
00:15:01You don't know.
00:15:02I'm going to stay.
00:15:03Frederick's.
00:15:07Where's Frederick's?
00:15:07In this post.
00:15:08Can I be of any assistance?
00:15:10Have you got a corpse with you?
00:15:11No, sir.
00:15:12Right.
00:15:12Well, I'm off to bed, then.
00:15:13Trust that John will provide us a body by dawn?
00:15:17Yes.
00:15:18We should all get some rest.
00:15:19Have you ever had to wait this long for a body?
00:15:38Yes.
00:15:39My second trip.
00:15:40The corpse didn't appear until midway through the Saturday.
00:15:44Although we did have several clues before somebody was murdered.
00:15:48Do you think that's happening now?
00:15:49Well, I certainly think that a big clue was that John Mariner mentioned a mystery writer who's been dead for over a century.
00:15:58Sheridan Le Fanu.
00:15:59Indeed.
00:16:00We read him in Book Club last year.
00:16:03The novel was called A Passage in the Secret History of an Irish Countess.
00:16:08That's an absurd title.
00:16:10Well, it's also the original locked room mystery.
00:16:14It predates Poe's murders in the Rue Morgue by three years.
00:16:19And the first game we played here...
00:16:22It was a locked room mystery.
00:16:25Well, who was the killer in that game?
00:16:27Fredericks, actually.
00:16:28Stop.
00:16:29The butler did it.
00:16:30Well, John loves nothing more than playing with preconceptions.
00:16:34Sometimes the correct answer is the obvious one.
00:16:36Oh.
00:16:37Well, maybe we should check the dock.
00:16:38The dock where the transport picked us up.
00:16:40Yeah.
00:16:41Mariner is from Marinus, of the sea.
00:16:43I really should have minored in Latin with you at Old Oxford.
00:16:47Speaking of, is there an OED in that library?
00:16:49Yeah, there are several dictionaries, actually.
00:16:53I thought so.
00:16:56Myrtle is Anglicized Gaelic for Mariner.
00:16:59And John is the English version of John.
00:17:02John Myrtle put himself into the game.
00:17:07Perhaps this means he plans to return to the island after all.
00:17:11Oh!
00:17:14A secret message.
00:17:16Triggered by the use of that dictionary.
00:17:19What is that?
00:17:20See if it works.
00:17:24Oh, ow.
00:17:25It's heavy.
00:17:27Oh!
00:17:29Shall we go?
00:17:30Yes.
00:17:31Oh, God.
00:17:31OK.
00:17:32There is no knob.
00:17:53Sharon, do you have to know?
00:17:54It's a locked room mystery.
00:17:56The body must be in there.
00:17:57I suspect there's a triggering mechanism somewhere.
00:18:02What did the Mariner say after he mentioned Sheridan Levin?
00:18:08My door is always open to you.
00:18:12Well, clearly not.
00:18:13Oh.
00:18:15But then he said something that jumped out at me.
00:18:18You only need knock thrice.
00:18:19Thrice.
00:18:31Oh.
00:18:33I knew you were too pretty in here.
00:18:35Shall we?
00:18:36Shall we go?
00:18:36Shall we go?
00:18:37OK.
00:18:37OK.
00:18:38OK.
00:18:38Oh, it certainly seems like the room of the mariner.
00:19:01Found the body.
00:19:05I guess the butler didn't do it this time.
00:19:14Can't seem to find a murder weapon.
00:19:16Maybe he was stabbed.
00:19:18Help me turn him over.
00:19:20Ah!
00:19:21Janie!
00:19:26The record!
00:19:28That's two murders.
00:19:30It's a double murder.
00:19:32You've been one of those in three years!
00:19:37Oh.
00:19:38Um.
00:19:39Bedvix?
00:19:40Um.
00:19:41OK.
00:19:43Oh.
00:19:44Lady Alcott.
00:19:46You're...
00:19:47You're not dead.
00:19:49Oh, no.
00:19:51He is.
00:19:54Just the one victim, then?
00:19:56No.
00:19:57Janie, the...
00:20:00This man is really and truly dead.
00:20:07I...
00:20:08I think that might be the murder weapon.
00:20:11I don't understand.
00:20:12Do you see that?
00:20:13Is that a...
00:20:14False beard?
00:20:15His nose might be false as well.
00:20:19Oh, it's that John Murta.
00:20:21Ah.
00:20:22Oh.
00:20:24I think it's the most difficult.
00:20:26Is that a real murder weapon?
00:20:33No.
00:20:34Yeah.
00:20:36Oh, it's that John Murta.
00:20:40Oh.
00:20:42Yeah, come in.
00:20:59Evening, Detective.
00:21:01Gloria.
00:21:01Sorry about the hour.
00:21:03But you look awake.
00:21:04I am, yeah.
00:21:05The Ruiz case thought your vacation started tonight.
00:21:09So, then I guess you wouldn't mind if I pulled you back in.
00:21:12Ghost broke his ankle tonight playing beach volleyball.
00:21:16And we got a homicide.
00:21:21Jason, bodies on Mystery Island.
00:21:25Diseased, is John Murta.
00:21:29I know you have some history with him.
00:21:31Well, that history is ancient.
00:21:33I haven't seen her spoken to Murta in six years.
00:21:35Good.
00:21:37Pineda took her vacation for real, so you're stuck with your chief as your partner.
00:21:42I'll manage.
00:21:56Chief Espinoza, thank you for coming.
00:21:58After all your boss has done to support the Police Benevolent Association, the least I can do.
00:22:04Just the three of you?
00:22:06We have eight cops on the mainland.
00:22:07Only three of them are detectives.
00:22:09One just flew up on vacation.
00:22:11One has a broken ankle.
00:22:14This is Ray Romeo, the coroner.
00:22:16And I think you know Detective Trent.
00:22:18Mr. Fredericks.
00:22:18Pardon me, but considering Detective Trent's history with Mr. Murtaugh.
00:22:22History which compels me to ask about your whereabouts at the time Murtaugh was killed.
00:22:26I was unconscious, having been rendered as such by an unseen assailant.
00:22:30I've taken great care not to wash up so that you may detect the chloroform that was used.
00:22:36I'd like to meet the guests who found the body.
00:22:43Oh, at last.
00:22:45Oh, it's you.
00:22:47Detective Jason Trent, this is Chief of Police Gloria Espinosa.
00:22:50I am Baroness Jane Olcott.
00:22:52And this is my dearest friend, Dr. Amelia Priestley, who happens to be an official consultant for the Metropolitan Police in London.
00:22:59Em was the one that discovered the secret door, which led us to poor John.
00:23:05And we are ready to be interviewed.
00:23:07Thank you, Miss Olcott.
00:23:08Lady Olcott?
00:23:10Lady Olcott.
00:23:11But I need to review the scene first.
00:23:15How many times has this passage been used in one of your games?
00:23:18This is the first time.
00:23:19No one knew about it other than myself and Mr. Murtaugh.
00:23:23And the people who built it?
00:23:24Well, yes.
00:23:25But they haven't been here since the renovation six years ago.
00:23:28I'll need to make sure of that.
00:23:29I'll need the contact information for your contractor.
00:23:32This is my assistant, Lucia Camarada.
00:23:34She's been making sure no one goes near the body.
00:23:39Time of death?
00:23:40Between 9 and 10.
00:23:42Poison?
00:23:43Has to be.
00:23:44No redness around the wound, so it was fired from a distance.
00:23:48How much of a distance?
00:23:49I'd say a good 10 feet at least.
00:23:51How quickly would he have died?
00:23:52Oh, depending on the poison.
00:23:55Several minutes.
00:23:56Possibly up to half an hour.
00:24:11Could he have made it to this phone, Ray?
00:24:14I can't say for sure until I've done the autopsy.
00:24:17Speaking of which, I should start prepping the body for transfer.
00:24:21I'll need another pair of hands.
00:24:23I will assist you.
00:24:30Where's the drone?
00:24:34Take this to the mainland and get it to Lorenzo and IT.
00:24:38Mr. Fredericks.
00:24:39Sir.
00:24:41You didn't see through Murtaugh's disguise?
00:24:43I haven't seen Mr. Murtaugh in person since the island's opening weekend.
00:24:46Why?
00:24:46Like many geniuses, he had his eccentricities.
00:24:50He believed that if he were ever to return to Mystery Island, something terrible would
00:24:54come to pass.
00:24:55And evidently, he was right.
00:24:58Any bad blood between the guests and Murtaugh?
00:25:00I do know that Mr. Ellis, also known as Sarge, fancies himself a mystery novelist.
00:25:06He's written several books, all self-published.
00:25:09And he flew to Montana several months back and demanded of Mr. Murtaugh that he be included
00:25:14in the writing of the games of the island.
00:25:16And Murtaugh wasn't game to collaborate on his murder stories.
00:25:19Hmm.
00:25:20Have you read the story he wrote for this weekend?
00:25:22Only the first part.
00:25:24The discovery of the body, which was supposed to be me.
00:25:26What's supposed to happen next?
00:25:28Mr. Murtaugh's instructions were that I was not to read any farther until after one of the
00:25:33guests had found me.
00:25:34Where's the document?
00:25:35The safe in my office.
00:25:36Should I awake, Janie?
00:25:52Not yet, no.
00:25:54What kind of police consultant are you, Dr. Priestley?
00:25:56A psychiatrist.
00:25:58My mom's a psychiatrist.
00:26:00My father's a policeman.
00:26:02What kind of consultant do you do?
00:26:04I specialize in talking to murder suspects.
00:26:06Well, maybe I can put you to use.
00:26:09Only if you clear me as a suspect.
00:26:14Those are the profiles the guests provided us.
00:26:17And now the story document.
00:26:18Oh, it's not possible.
00:26:38What?
00:26:40The document.
00:26:42It's gone.
00:26:43I'm the only one with the combination to the safe.
00:26:50Not Murtaugh.
00:26:51Well, yes, of course.
00:26:51What about Lucia?
00:26:52Well, I certainly didn't give it to her.
00:26:54Someone didn't just steal the document.
00:26:56No.
00:26:59This is our only connection to the internet.
00:27:01I need to see your security camera footage.
00:27:03There is none.
00:27:04What?
00:27:04People who pay $10,000 a day for this resort expect privacy.
00:27:10How are we doing?
00:27:11Not good.
00:27:12Someone stole the story document and the router's been destroyed.
00:27:14Our killer is very detailed.
00:27:17We transferred the body to the boat.
00:27:19I'll be back in the morning with forensics.
00:27:21Guest profiles.
00:27:22I don't have internet, so give these to go as.
00:27:25Tell them to run everyone down.
00:27:26Social media, public bios.
00:27:28Check to see if there's any lies in there.
00:27:30I need to commandeer your offers.
00:27:32And then M put the book back on the shelf,
00:27:34which triggered the secret door to open.
00:27:37And we went up and found Fredericks and John.
00:27:40And where were you and the other guests between 9 and 10 p.m.?
00:27:42We came in here straight from dinner.
00:27:49At half past eight?
00:27:50And we stayed in here?
00:27:51Playing games until Lucia told us that Fredericks wasn't returning.
00:27:55Which was about 10.
00:27:57To be accurate though, Janey, not everyone remained in this room.
00:27:59How do you know that?
00:28:00Because I was the only one who didn't leave the room.
00:28:03Well, I only went to the loo.
00:28:04Can't be gone more than five minutes.
00:28:06Phoenix also went to powder her nose,
00:28:08but she was gone for nearly half an hour.
00:28:09Sarge went searching for the body,
00:28:10and he was gone for easily 20 minutes.
00:28:13Carlos and Riley left in search of vintage brandy,
00:28:15and they were gone for quite a while.
00:28:17Morgan went looking for them and came back after they returned.
00:28:20Brandy-less.
00:28:22I hate clichés, otherwise I might say something about an apple and a tree.
00:28:26Good thing you loathe clichés so you don't have to.
00:28:28So, everyone had a chance to sneak upstairs and commemorate.
00:28:34Well, I swear I wasn't more than five minutes in the loo.
00:28:36Gotcha.
00:28:37Thanks, ladies.
00:28:38I suggest you get some rest,
00:28:40and please don't talk to your fellow guests until we meet for breakfast.
00:28:43For someone who might walk away from their work consulting in murder,
00:28:51you seem quite ready to assist in this one.
00:28:53She's trying to be helpful.
00:28:55Trying and succeeding.
00:28:58Detective Trent should get you to analyse the suspects.
00:29:01I'll suggest it.
00:29:02Jamie!
00:29:03What was that apple and tree business?
00:29:04Oh, he just meant that apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
00:29:07Well, yes, I got that.
00:29:08Who is talking about my dad?
00:29:09Well, yes, I got that as well.
00:29:11How did he know that your dad was a copper?
00:29:12We chatted while you were sleeping.
00:29:14He told me his mum's a psychiatrist.
00:29:17Well, I dare say that I was correct.
00:29:19About what?
00:29:19About you two on the dock?
00:29:21See, now, I don't hate clichés.
00:29:24Like, for instance, the one about first sight and love.
00:29:27Jamie!
00:29:28And the other one about men who like to marry women who are like their mothers.
00:29:33There's no data on that.
00:29:36Tell that to Dr Freud.
00:29:37And Detective Trent?
00:29:38I'm going to get ready for bed.
00:29:44It's horrific.
00:29:45Devastating.
00:29:46I'm in shock.
00:29:47I'm not.
00:29:49I knew it wouldn't end well for John.
00:29:50Fredericks, call the boat.
00:29:51Carlos and I will be leaving as soon as we're packed.
00:29:54Mrs. Del Fuego, Chief Espinosa and I need to interview all of you.
00:29:57You're not suggesting we...
00:29:58Our suspects.
00:30:00Yes.
00:30:01That's exactly what he's suggesting.
00:30:02That's ridiculous.
00:30:04We're all friends of John.
00:30:06And investors in his vision.
00:30:09Well, except for those two.
00:30:10What are you suggesting, Phoenix?
00:30:12It's not complicated.
00:30:14Look, Detective.
00:30:15If we're not under arrest, then we're leaving.
00:30:17If you go, there might not be anything to come back to.
00:30:20Excuse me?
00:30:21Well, look how ready to run you all are and your investors with a stake in this place.
00:30:25I can't imagine anyone would want to spend ten grand a night to stay somewhere where they
00:30:28might be murdered and the original investors can't be bothered to care who done it.
00:30:35Detective, I've solved a record four cases here on the island, should you require my assistance.
00:30:41Thank you, Sergeant.
00:30:42We're going to start with fingerprints and DNA.
00:30:44Chief Espinosa and I will talk to each of you separately.
00:30:46When everyone's in their rooms, why don't we do some snooping for clues?
00:31:12Because it's illegal.
00:31:13More illegal than the murderer, which we're trying to solve.
00:31:17I'm not trying to solve anything.
00:31:19That's the detective's job.
00:31:21Fine.
00:31:23I shall return.
00:31:24No.
00:31:27Janie, you can't.
00:31:28Come over here.
00:31:29We have to go.
00:31:30Come on.
00:31:30I'm looking.
00:31:31Did you ask Fredericks for a copy of the John Mariner message?
00:31:34I did.
00:31:34And apparently Muratau were on the only count.
00:31:36My notes, if you'd like to make a copy.
00:31:38Thank you, Sergeant.
00:31:40I believe the key to solvers is in that message.
00:31:42I think that John said something that forced the killer's hand.
00:31:45We'll look into it.
00:31:47Is it true that you offered your services as a mystery writer and Muratau rejected them?
00:31:52Yes.
00:31:53But I knew he'd come around.
00:31:55And sure enough, he called me a few weeks ago to make certain that I'd be here for the weekend.
00:31:59The journalist is nobody, but I know that Janie's friend works with psychopaths and murderers.
00:32:16Maybe they rubbed off on her.
00:32:17I don't know, Phoenix.
00:32:18Oh, come on.
00:32:19Look at how fast she found the body.
00:32:21I'm going to tell the detective that I heard her saying at dinner she's always wanted to commit the perfect murder.
00:32:28Did you?
00:32:29Maybe I did.
00:32:30And listen, there's a dart gun in my room.
00:32:34We could plant it in hers.
00:32:36Hang on.
00:32:38You want to frame her for murder?
00:32:41If she's innocent, it'll all come out of the trial.
00:32:44And you think the detective will just believe she said that?
00:32:47You're right.
00:32:50Good point.
00:32:53We need some kind of evidence.
00:32:56Are you all right?
00:32:58Fine.
00:33:00Yeah.
00:33:17I, uh, I'm going to get some fresh air.
00:33:43Anyone who's looking for me?
00:33:45Right.
00:33:45Mr. Del Fuego?
00:33:57No, I'm not.
00:34:04John and I have been friends since we were 18.
00:34:07Naturally, we've had our ups and downs, but I'm invested in Mystery Island, and that means
00:34:11being invested in John Murtagh.
00:34:13Hello, Jane.
00:34:23You think I'm the killer and there's evidence in my room?
00:34:25I was planning on checking all the rooms.
00:34:27Watching your own investigation, I admire that.
00:34:29Well, search.
00:34:31I'll wait.
00:34:31You should know that Janey's shrink friend said at dinner last night that she'd love to commit the perfect murder.
00:34:57So you think she's the killer, not someone who actually knew Murtagh, like, yourself?
00:35:02Oh, but she knew John.
00:35:06This fell out of her purse last night, in the game room.
00:35:09That is John's handwriting.
00:35:11We'll confirm that.
00:35:12It's clear that she was jilted by him and contrived to come here to take revenge.
00:35:16Thank you, Miss Green.
00:35:18I'd like to know more about your relationship with Murtagh.
00:35:21Oh, I haven't seen John in forever, and we really had no relationship.
00:35:27I can't say the same about him and Morgan, however.
00:35:31Morgan Del Fuego.
00:35:32That's right.
00:35:34She and John were having an affair.
00:35:37It all came out last year at John's Christmas party in Montana.
00:35:44I couldn't find anything incriminating.
00:35:46It's because there's nothing to find.
00:35:48Or because you knew you'd be searched, and you hid the evidence elsewhere, which is why you could freely let me search.
00:35:54Either way, I think we should work together on this.
00:35:57Even though you don't trust me.
00:35:58Precisely because I don't keep your suspect close.
00:36:01Jane.
00:36:02You're finally starting to sleep like a detective.
00:36:32I'm convinced that John Mariner's message is the key.
00:36:41Why don't we compare the notes we both took on the recording?
00:36:45You realize that if we solve the murder of one of the most famous mystery figures on the planet...
00:36:51We'd be heroes.
00:36:53Yeah.
00:36:54Yeah.
00:36:54No, come on.
00:37:05No, come on.
00:37:09See you.
00:37:12Okay.
00:37:12We were not having an affair, but I don't expect you will believe me any more than my husband did.
00:37:28When's the last time you saw Murtau?
00:37:29At his Christmas party in Montana, when he drunkenly told me he was in love with me.
00:37:34Who told you?
00:37:35Carlos?
00:37:38No.
00:37:39It was Phoenix, wasn't it?
00:37:41We used to be best friends when she and John were dating.
00:37:43When was that?
00:37:44He ended it six months ago.
00:37:47A few weeks before Christmas.
00:37:49She wasn't happy.
00:37:50Detective?
00:37:57A word?
00:37:58Have a seat, Mr. Peel.
00:37:59I'll be right with her.
00:38:01What has it done?
00:38:02Amelia, please.
00:38:04In the game room, Mr. Peel found a message in his pocket that went outside.
00:38:09I followed him, and he met up with Lucia for a heated conversation.
00:38:12About what?
00:38:13I wasn't able to get close enough to hear, but I also wanted to ask if Phoenix Green told you that I allegedly said I wanted to commit the perfect murder.
00:38:21What would make you think she did?
00:38:24I overheard her saying she was going to tell you that.
00:38:26It's a lie.
00:38:27Did you have a relationship with John Murtaugh?
00:38:29I never met the man in my life.
00:38:30So this didn't fall out of your purse last night?
00:38:34No, it certainly did not.
00:38:36Well, we're going to test it for your friends, do you think?
00:38:39Good.
00:38:39You won't find them.
00:38:40I'm being set up.
00:38:41Phoenix Green gave you that as well?
00:38:46Excuse me, Amelia.
00:38:49Of course.
00:38:55Forensics phone and match for a fingerprint on the dark gun.
00:38:59It belongs to Phoenix Green.
00:39:11Oh, I know you don't want to get involved in the investigation.
00:39:20I've changed my mind.
00:39:22Oh.
00:39:23Why?
00:39:34Wait.
00:39:34What were you going to say?
00:39:36Sarge and I are joining forces because we both have a vested financial interest in catching the killer.
00:39:41Unless he is the killer.
00:39:43Well, yes, of course.
00:39:44But if we work together, it'll be much easier to see if he's meddling with the investigation.
00:39:48Good point.
00:39:48Yeah.
00:39:49Well, I thought so.
00:39:50Yeah.
00:39:50Now, what changed your mind?
00:39:52One of your fellow investors is trying to frame me for murder.
00:39:55What?
00:39:56Shh.
00:39:57Who?
00:39:58Phoenix Green.
00:39:59She's given Detective Trent this break-up note, supposedly from murder, to me.
00:40:04But you don't even know, John.
00:40:07Do you?
00:40:08No.
00:40:08Of course I don't.
00:40:09But if this story gets back to London, do you realise what it'll do to my reputation with Scotland Yard?
00:40:14But I thought you didn't want that work, anyway.
00:40:16Ah, me not wanting it isn't the same thing as it being taken from me due to a desperate smear campaign.
00:40:23Well, I will talk to Phoenix straight away.
00:40:26The police are already on their way to do that because they found her prints on the murder weapon.
00:40:33Well, what are we waiting for? Come on!
00:40:39Yes, I can explain it because I touched the gun when it was hanging right there.
00:40:44You can see the hook where it was.
00:40:46Why didn't you mention it was missing?
00:40:50I didn't know John died by poisoned dart until an hour ago, and I didn't notice it was missing until now.
00:40:55Are you saying you touched it yesterday, but didn't notice it was gone today?
00:41:00I touched half of these things.
00:41:03They're fun to handle.
00:41:04Miss Green, did Murtaugh actually write this letter to you that it's a dear phoenix on the part that's torn off?
00:41:11Don't be absurd.
00:41:12I told you, it fell out of that psychopathic psychiatrist's purse last night.
00:41:16Miss Green, we know you're lying about not seeing Murtaugh for years.
00:41:19We know you were dating him.
00:41:21Morgan blabbed, huh?
00:41:22I didn't lie, detective.
00:41:24I said I hadn't seen him in forever, which translates to a few weeks when you live a life as busy as mine.
00:41:29Morgan, and it's true, we have no relationship.
00:41:34But it's good to know that my so-called friend is trying to get me arrested.
00:41:40Morgan is a sociopath.
00:41:42Did she happen to mention that at all?
00:41:45Morgan, this whole room needs to be processed.
00:41:48I think I'd like to talk to Mrs. Del Fuego.
00:41:50He's going to talk to Morgan.
00:41:51Okay, yes, ma'am.
00:41:52She told you I was a sociopath?
00:42:22Why do you call one of the strangers fired and ask them what she is?
00:42:25So you're suggesting she is?
00:42:27She's a narcissistic sociopath with borderline personality disorder.
00:42:31Did you ever see her and Murtaugh together?
00:42:33He hated New York.
00:42:34She usually flew to Montana.
00:42:36Except the day they broke up.
00:42:38He showed up at her apartment when I was there.
00:42:40I said I'd leave, but he said it wasn't necessary.
00:42:42That it wouldn't take long.
00:42:44And told her it was over.
00:42:45He flew to New York just to break up with her.
00:42:51Why'd she take it?
00:42:52She said if I see you again, I won't be responsible for what I do.
00:42:59Morgan!
00:43:00Get over here.
00:43:02Morgan!
00:43:03You will come down.
00:43:03Let go of me!
00:43:05What did you tell him?
00:43:06The truth.
00:43:08Ms. Green, did you say to John Murtaugh,
00:43:11if I see you again, I won't be responsible for what I do?
00:43:14I only meant that I would beg him to get back together.
00:43:17But he'd already moved on to her.
00:43:20Lock her in one of the storage rooms.
00:43:21You know Murtaugh didn't send me that note, right?
00:43:32Like I said, I gotta check it out.
00:43:51You know Murtaugh didn't send me that note.
00:44:21Carlos!
00:44:24Go back inside!
00:44:26I'm doing this for the both of us.
00:44:51Police!
00:44:53Police, stop what you're doing, step away from the papers!
00:45:23Hey!
00:45:36Oh, come on, my God!
00:45:51Help!
00:45:54Please help!
00:45:57Sounded like him.
00:46:00Help!
00:46:02Help!
00:46:04Help!
00:46:07Help!
00:46:09Amelia, what's going on?
00:46:18This woman stole my property!
00:46:20Property?
00:46:21He went deep into the jungle to burn!
00:46:24What are they?
00:46:26They appear to be love letters from John Murtaugh to Morgan Del Fuego.
00:46:33Dr. Priestley found Mr. Del Fuego trying to burn this.
00:46:36That's a bit incriminating.
00:46:38Yeah.
00:46:39I think I'd like to talk to Mrs. Del Fuego.
00:46:41Do you mind?
00:46:42Come on, sir.
00:46:43We can shut inside.
00:46:45On the letter front, your prints and DNA were not on a scrap of the one Phoenix gave me.
00:46:54Ah, but I bet hers were, right?
00:46:56I'd like to officially offer my services to help you correctly identify the killer.
00:47:01Well, you're not convinced the killer's the woman who tried to frame you?
00:47:03I think she wanted to get off the island, but I'm not convinced it was to avoid a murder conviction.
00:47:07Sergeant, I would like to help as well.
00:47:09Or we could just listen in, as we did when you were talking to Phoenix and Morgan.
00:47:17I told you I wasn't having an affair with John, but that didn't stop him from sending me handwritten love letters, which I never responded to.
00:47:24But you brought the love letters to the island?
00:47:26No.
00:47:27Those are copies of the ones he sent me, which Carlos found.
00:47:31In here.
00:47:34It is Carlos' favorite novel.
00:47:36He noticed it on the shelf after you all had left with Phoenix.
00:47:39He picked it up and found the letter.
00:47:41He had a fit.
00:47:42Search all the books.
00:47:44I heard you two arguing.
00:47:45Yes.
00:47:47I suggested we bring this to you, Detective Trent.
00:47:49Carlos said they had nothing to do with the murder.
00:47:51It was just John playing mind games.
00:47:54Would John have known this was your husband's favorite novel?
00:47:56Absolutely.
00:47:57Hang on.
00:47:59Secrets hidden in books and secret passageways triggered by books.
00:48:04This isn't just a mind game.
00:48:05This is part of the murder game.
00:48:07Detective, there must be some other clue hiding in some other book on this island.
00:48:10That thought had occurred to me.
00:48:12Oh.
00:48:17Oh.
00:48:18This is light.
00:48:26Hello.
00:48:27Oh.
00:48:29Hi.
00:48:37What the you do.
00:48:49You.
00:48:50Oh.
00:48:53Oh, it's you.
00:49:06Good evening, all, and welcome.
00:49:09My name is John Mariner.
00:49:10I won't be joining you all tonight.
00:49:12I'm otherwise engaged with my old friend Sheridan LaFannou.
00:49:18Uh, he's the author of the first locked room mystery.
00:49:23Ladies and gentlemen, dinner will be served at six.
00:49:28Detective, I've laid places for you and Chief Espinosa.
00:49:32And I have a tuxedo for you.
00:49:36Seriously, I'm in the middle of a murder investigation.
00:49:39The victim himself would insist on a formal dinner, sir.
00:49:43Yeah, he's right.
00:49:53Ladies.
00:49:58Where's Morgan?
00:49:59Not feeling too well.
00:50:01Can I get you another refill?
00:50:04Good idea.
00:50:06I'm all right.
00:50:06You clean up well.
00:50:25So do you.
00:50:26Isn't dinner that way?
00:50:27Yes, but Carlos told me Morgan wasn't feeling well,
00:50:33so I was going to go check on her.
00:50:36I'll join you.
00:50:37Okay.
00:50:52Carlos said you're ill.
00:50:54Uh, I'm just, it's just a summer cold.
00:50:59It often happens a day or two after a long flight.
00:51:02I'll be fine.
00:51:03Heading to bed.
00:51:04You lost a mail.
00:51:07Did I?
00:51:08Must have been when I was reshelving the books.
00:51:11All right then.
00:51:11Good night.
00:51:16She didn't sound like she had a cold.
00:51:18No.
00:51:19When they hand through the hair,
00:51:20suspects tend to do that with them.
00:51:21Mom, nice work, Spartan.
00:51:23Nice and mail.
00:51:28I just got off the phone with Coase.
00:51:31Riley Peel doesn't work for
00:51:32on the brink of beyond that calm.
00:51:35He's never done any travel writing.
00:51:37But that's not all.
00:51:38Lucia didn't turn up for dinner.
00:51:40No one has seen her since this afternoon.
00:51:44I'm going to start a search for Lucia.
00:51:50I'll, uh, talk to Riley.
00:51:54Are you headed to dinner?
00:51:57I suppose so.
00:51:59You'd rather come with me to talk to Riley, wouldn't you?
00:52:03Guilty.
00:52:03What kind of consulting did you do for the London police?
00:52:06I talk to people they've arrested
00:52:07to assess their psychological character
00:52:09and determine whether or not
00:52:10they are likely to have committed murder.
00:52:12That's rough work.
00:52:13But you must enjoy it.
00:52:15I did.
00:52:16Uh, I'm not sure I still do.
00:52:18Janie offered me this weekend a way
00:52:20to consider my future.
00:52:22Did something happen?
00:52:25I was threatened by a killer in custody.
00:52:28You knew you?
00:52:29Yeah.
00:52:30It's happened once before.
00:52:31I was stalked and my family threatened,
00:52:34but the truth is,
00:52:36I was already feeling worn down by the work.
00:52:38I just feel like I need to reconsider everything.
00:52:44Well, you seem quite good at it.
00:52:46Be ashamed if you walked away.
00:52:50Then I suppose I'm coming with you to talk to Riley.
00:52:58Not coming for dinner, Mr. Peel?
00:52:59I'm just running behind.
00:53:02Would you mind if Dr. Priest and I have a word?
00:53:05Run it on.
00:53:13Does every room have a different decor?
00:53:15Yeah.
00:53:16They're all inspired by the settings
00:53:18on the different Emily Murtaugh novels.
00:53:20They're completely renovated twice a year.
00:53:22That can't be cheap.
00:53:23Is that something you'll include in your article
00:53:25for On the Brink of Beyond?
00:53:26Yes.
00:53:27Except you don't work for On the Brink of Beyond, Mr. Peel.
00:53:30You lied to police officers
00:53:32in the course of a homicide investigation.
00:53:34Hang on.
00:53:35I did pitch the story for On the Brink of Beyond.
00:53:37They said if I could get onto the island
00:53:39and if I could get some good stuff,
00:53:40they'd probably publish my story.
00:53:42Who got you here?
00:53:43It was Lucia, wasn't it?
00:53:45You noticed that, detective?
00:53:47Hand through the hair.
00:53:48Indicates deception.
00:53:49I saw you meeting with Lucia in the jungle.
00:53:52You looked quite upset.
00:53:54Of course I was upset.
00:53:55The subject for my story had just been murdered.
00:53:58Well, the story's about Murtaugh, not the island.
00:54:00My story's no puff piece.
00:54:02It's an expose.
00:54:04So how this place isn't what it appears to be.
00:54:06This whole indulgence,
00:54:07and cleave with a super ridge,
00:54:09but it is in fact an overextended failure.
00:54:11What do you mean?
00:54:12Murtaugh's supposedly this creative genius.
00:54:15And maybe he is.
00:54:16But he's a financial idiot
00:54:18that's made this place cost ten times as much
00:54:20to run as it earns.
00:54:22He's taking on that like a third world country.
00:54:26And if he continues this way,
00:54:27he'll be forced to declare bankruptcy.
00:54:29So his investors...
00:54:31Lose their investments?
00:54:32Yeah.
00:54:38Do you believe him?
00:54:39About the article, yeah.
00:54:41But he's not telling us everything.
00:54:44I got that too.
00:54:46And I stand by my apple and tree, come.
00:54:49My dad would be happy to hear that.
00:54:51I'm happy to tell him.
00:54:58Dad passed away.
00:55:00Last year.
00:55:03I'm so sorry, Amelia.
00:55:08He was at work.
00:55:10He'd just made an arrest.
00:55:11And he had a massive coronary at his desk.
00:55:19He loved his work, so it's...
00:55:23I just mean, I think
00:55:24he would be quite happy to know
00:55:27that was how he left this world.
00:55:31I just wish...
00:55:33Yeah.
00:55:35I thought I was finished with the tears part.
00:55:41I don't mind.
00:55:45No.
00:55:47I can see that.
00:55:49Thank you, Detective.
00:55:51Jason.
00:55:52Jason.
00:55:55And your parents?
00:55:56Alive and well.
00:55:58Living in Boston.
00:55:59So I've got to ask.
00:56:00How did you end up down this way?
00:56:02My mentor in Boston,
00:56:05Detective Ruiz,
00:56:06he grew up here,
00:56:07on the mainland.
00:56:08I mean...
00:56:10Eight years ago,
00:56:12he retired,
00:56:13came home,
00:56:14and was murdered.
00:56:19And you...
00:56:20took the job on the mainland?
00:56:22To find his killer.
00:56:24Yeah.
00:56:26Still looking.
00:56:32Do you really want to go to this fancy party?
00:56:35I'm going to imagine
00:56:44you don't miss the Boston winters.
00:56:46The weather down here is pretty great,
00:56:48but I think he missed my ex-wife a lot.
00:56:50Oh, I'm sorry.
00:56:51No, it's cool.
00:56:53The high school sweethearts
00:56:54who probably shouldn't try
00:56:55to make it last about his graduation.
00:56:58You?
00:56:58You never seen our wedding band.
00:57:00Was there ever one?
00:57:01There wasn't.
00:57:02There was an engagement ring.
00:57:05Mysterious.
00:57:06Tell me more.
00:57:07He would have told you
00:57:09I loved the work more than him.
00:57:11Would you disagree?
00:57:12No.
00:57:13I mean, not then.
00:57:14Back then, I really did love it.
00:57:17It's funny.
00:57:19My engagement ended on an island.
00:57:21Crete.
00:57:22I clearly didn't want to be there,
00:57:24and as we were having another argument,
00:57:26I realized
00:57:27it wasn't just the place I didn't want.
00:57:30It was him.
00:57:32I haven't been on a vacation since.
00:57:34Six years.
00:57:35It's been six years
00:57:36since I was on this island,
00:57:37and that wasn't a vacation.
00:57:38Someone was assaulted.
00:57:40Murtaugh assaulted Fredericks.
00:57:41What?
00:57:42That's how Fredericks got the eye patch.
00:57:44Murtaugh was a champion fencer at Oxford,
00:57:46and I guess he didn't like
00:57:47that his butler beat him
00:57:48three days in a row.
00:57:49We went to the hospital
00:57:50after Frederick's surgery
00:57:51to see if he pressed charges.
00:57:52Let me guess.
00:57:53Murtaugh gave him a big, fat raise,
00:57:54and Fredericks decided to let it go.
00:57:56Yeah.
00:57:56I pushed him,
00:57:58but my boss,
00:57:59the chief before Gloria,
00:58:01reminded me that Murtaugh
00:58:02gives a lot of money
00:58:03to the police benevolent association.
00:58:05Wow.
00:58:06I can see why you're not a fan of this place.
00:58:08I just don't like people
00:58:09turning murder into a puzzle game.
00:58:11So then I suppose you're not a fan
00:58:12of the Evelyn murder books either.
00:58:14Never read one.
00:58:15My dad was the same.
00:58:17Mystery writers try as they might,
00:58:20they never get it right.
00:58:21He's right.
00:58:22Yeah.
00:58:25I think he would have liked you very much.
00:58:27I think I'd have felt the same way.
00:58:34Jason.
00:58:36This hat.
00:58:45Is it possible it was an accident?
00:59:05She was an excellent swimmer.
00:59:07And she was hit on the head.
00:59:09Jason said the coroner is on the way
00:59:10and he'll be able to determine
00:59:11whether that happened pre- or post-mortem.
00:59:14It doesn't make sense.
00:59:16First murder was well planned.
00:59:18This one is sloppy.
00:59:29What?
00:59:31What is it?
00:59:34What happened?
00:59:39Lucia has been killed.
00:59:44What?
00:59:58What?
00:59:58The friend you see me.
00:59:59Oh, no.
01:00:00Wait, wait, wait, no.
01:00:01There, there.
01:00:04I don't know.
01:00:23Jason, you smell that?
01:00:26Chlorophon.
01:00:28Did she knock out Fredericks and kill Morta?
01:00:32Jason.
01:00:36We met a few years ago.
01:00:38Her brother, Miguel and I, we went to the same writing program.
01:00:43She came to visit and we connected.
01:00:47I'm sorry.
01:00:48It's all right.
01:00:49You've been together since then.
01:00:53We wanted to get married.
01:00:55But my student loans.
01:00:58How could I ask her to leave this and come live with me
01:01:00in a shoebox?
01:01:02So I had to get my career breakthrough.
01:01:05And you thought the expose on Mystery Island would have been that?
01:01:09Yeah.
01:01:10So Lucia was your source for all the dirt about this place?
01:01:15Did she change her mind about the expose after Morta was killed?
01:01:19Is that why you two were arguing?
01:01:21Not exactly.
01:01:23Meaning she, well, she found a way to make money, more money, real money.
01:01:32A lot more than what the expose would have paid.
01:01:34What way?
01:01:36Blackmail.
01:01:39She said she had something on one of the guests.
01:01:41Who?
01:01:42I don't know.
01:01:43I told her I didn't want to know.
01:01:45A man had already been killed.
01:01:47And I just wanted us to...
01:01:51I'm pegging time of death between four and five this afternoon.
01:02:04You sort of blown for a stride on her head.
01:02:07Cause of death?
01:02:09I don't know once I've gotten the body back to the lab.
01:02:16Riley has to be left alone.
01:02:18Here.
01:02:19Myrta autopsy results.
01:02:22He was cyanide.
01:02:24Would have killed him up to 30 minutes after the dark hit him.
01:02:27Why just sit there?
01:02:29Why not try to get downstairs for help?
01:02:30Maybe the murderer make sure he couldn't go anywhere.
01:02:33Amelia said no one left the game room for more than 30 minutes.
01:02:35Well, I said up to 30 minutes.
01:02:38Maybe it was faster for Myrta.
01:02:41He had a tumor in his stomach, the size of a grapefruit,
01:02:44and I found cancer cells in his bones.
01:02:47No traces of chemo or radiation.
01:02:50So, I call his doctor in Montana.
01:02:53Apparently Myrta's a doctor foe.
01:02:57He hadn't seen the guy in over a year.
01:02:59Wouldn't he be in a lot of pain?
01:03:00Oh, sure.
01:03:02And he wasn't a very healthy diet of over-the-counter painkillers.
01:03:05I've seen this before.
01:03:07Guy think he's got an ulcer or something.
01:03:09Doesn't go to the doctor.
01:03:10Two months later, he's dead.
01:03:14Anyway, forensic guys are waiting with the body on the boat.
01:03:18I'll walk you out.
01:03:20Yeah.
01:03:21Lucille was killed while we were searching the library.
01:03:29Well, that means Janie and Sarge are in the clear.
01:03:32And Phoenix, of course.
01:03:34For this killing anyway, we need to check alibis.
01:03:36I was alone in my room.
01:03:41You don't think I...
01:03:43I have to ask.
01:03:44Between four and five, I was overseeing dinner preparations with the staff.
01:03:48When did you notice Lucia was missing?
01:03:50Lucia...
01:03:51Pardon me.
01:03:53Lucia said she had a headache around three and wanted to lay down.
01:03:58In the staff dormitory?
01:03:59I assume so, yes.
01:04:00But you didn't see her go there.
01:04:01After my interrogation with Chief Espinoza, I returned to my room.
01:04:07Morgan wasn't feeling well, so we had a nap.
01:04:10How well do you know Lucia?
01:04:12I see her a few times a year, whenever I came back.
01:04:16And your wife?
01:04:17You're sick in bed where she's been all afternoon.
01:04:21I told you.
01:04:22Are we done?
01:04:24I'd like to go and check on her.
01:04:26Sure.
01:04:31Two dead now.
01:04:51And one of these people is the killer.
01:05:02Hickory Dickory Dock.
01:05:04The mouse ran up the clock.
01:05:05The clock struck one.
01:05:07The mouse ran down.
01:05:08Excuse me, Baroness.
01:05:11What is it, Fredericks?
01:05:12Would either of you care for a cup of tea?
01:05:15Oh.
01:05:16Yes, please.
01:05:17No, thank you.
01:05:19Fredericks, did Lucia have access to the record before John played it to us on Friday night?
01:05:23She's the one who tested it on the player when it arrived.
01:05:26Lucia had the record for days, Em.
01:05:32What if she managed to decode the message and then confronted the killer on the beach?
01:05:37I mean, has Detective Trent thought of this?
01:05:39No, they mentioned.
01:05:41Well, when we crack it, I promise we'll go straight to him as Holmes and Watson would with Lestrade.
01:05:47Lorenzo says he was flown from Mystery Island to about two miles west in the middle of the ocean.
01:05:52Ray, can you ask Officer Martinez to take his diving girl to that spot and see if he finds anything?
01:05:58You bet.
01:06:00Now to Lucia.
01:06:02She has some subdermal scratches on her face, so there may be someone in that island with Lucia's DNA under their fingernails.
01:06:09She was fighting before the fatal blow.
01:06:11Right.
01:06:12And there were some chips of some sort of volcanic rock or sediment in her head wound.
01:06:17Though, the blow wasn't fatal.
01:06:19So she did die from ground.
01:06:21Yes, but...
01:06:22It's fresh water.
01:06:25What if her body came down the river here and out to the ocean?
01:06:29Slightly.
01:06:30If Frederick saw her at three and she was killed just after four,
01:06:34then where on that river takes about an hour or so to walk to from here.
01:06:43Got something!
01:06:48Several pieces of glass.
01:06:54And it smells like chloroform.
01:06:56There's a lot of volcanic rock and sediment.
01:06:59Is that blood?
01:07:04It sure looks like it.
01:07:06We need to get samples of that.
01:07:07On it.
01:07:14Jason.
01:07:21Gee.
01:07:29Are you going to deny this nail is yours?
01:07:37The chief is going to scrape your other nails and we're going to find Lucia's DNA on them, aren't we?
01:07:43Do you mind rolling up your sleeves?
01:07:49Lucia found the bottle of chloroform here in your room, didn't she?
01:07:53Yes, but it wasn't mine, which I told her.
01:07:55She brought the bottle back to her room as she decided what to do.
01:07:58Option one would be to tell us the police.
01:08:01Option two would be to blackmail you, which is what she proposed when she met you at the river, wasn't it?
01:08:05I told her I didn't believe that the chloroform was in my room.
01:08:07She said maybe my husband brought it, but either way she was going to be paid.
01:08:13I told her she was a fool.
01:08:15She got aggressive shoving the bottle into my face.
01:08:17So I found this in your room.
01:08:19I swatted it away.
01:08:21It smashed.
01:08:22Then she lost it.
01:08:24She grabbed me, scratched my arm.
01:08:26We struggled.
01:08:29She slipped and fell.
01:08:31Hit her head on a rock and fell into the river.
01:08:33If it was an accident, why not come forward?
01:08:35I didn't think anyone would believe me.
01:08:37You told Carlos and he agreed to cover for you, didn't he?
01:08:40And your wife is sick in bed, where she's been all afternoon.
01:08:44He said it was an accident.
01:08:47And we have enough bad press for the island already.
01:08:50He could lose millions.
01:08:52I thought he was just a 5% shareholder.
01:08:54No. Not anymore.
01:08:57We know Murtaugh was overextended.
01:09:00Mystery Island was going to have to declare bankruptcy, but you bailed him out.
01:09:03Even though he was trying to seduce your wife.
01:09:06You wouldn't understand.
01:09:07Explain it to me, then.
01:09:08I love Mystery Island.
01:09:11I think it's a brilliant idea.
01:09:13That his brilliant creator didn't know how to manage from a financial standpoint.
01:09:18I did bail John out.
01:09:19Secretly.
01:09:20I set up an angel investment group to buy the controlling shares
01:09:24to try to save the island from its creator.
01:09:26So Murtaugh had no idea you were the island's saviour?
01:09:30Not at first.
01:09:31But he's very clever.
01:09:34He found out, confronted me at his Christmas party.
01:09:38I've never seen him so angry.
01:09:40He told me I was a philistine who only cared about money.
01:09:44That I would ruin everything that is special about Mystery Island.
01:09:48How would you do that?
01:09:50Volume.
01:09:51We do 10 weekends a year now.
01:09:54We increase that to 52.
01:09:56We become profitable.
01:09:58That's a lot of original mysteries to write.
01:10:01Obviously we'd do some recycling.
01:10:03All this made John furious.
01:10:05He said he wouldn't let me destroy the island.
01:10:09He'd destroy me.
01:10:10And that's when he started to pursue Morgan.
01:10:16Did you find out Murtaugh would be here for the anniversary and plan to come here and kill him?
01:10:21No.
01:10:23John and I, I've told you, we've been friends since Oxford.
01:10:28I was used to him losing his mind doing stupid things.
01:10:33And I knew to just wait until he came to his senses.
01:10:38Mr. Del Fuego, I'd like for you to come and pass back to you.
01:10:42I found traces of fluorforming here.
01:10:51Yeah, different links.
01:10:58I noticed that.
01:11:13Built-in storage box.
01:11:21I've never seen that before.
01:11:25Mr. Del Fuego, you need to come with us.
01:11:28That isn't mine.
01:11:30I'm being set up.
01:11:31Sir, there are two people dead.
01:11:35I can put you in handcuffs like I did with Miss Green if you like.
01:11:47Detective Trent.
01:11:48Goaz, what do you got?
01:11:50That's terrific.
01:11:51Thank Martinez.
01:11:54Officer Martinez found the drone in the water?
01:11:56The coordinates with the remote said it would be.
01:11:58It certainly seems like Carlos is your man.
01:12:01Yeah.
01:12:01So why don't I feel right about it?
01:12:04Maybe because Carlos doesn't feel small?
01:12:08You're not talking about his height, are you?
01:12:10The killer in custody.
01:12:12He'd killed his wife because she was successful and he wasn't and she made him feel small.
01:12:16Carlos is an incredibly wealthy self-made man.
01:12:20By contrast, Murta inherited his money and he squandered it.
01:12:24What about Morgan, Murtaugh, the letters?
01:12:26Yeah, what about the letters?
01:12:29If Murtaugh was pursuing Morgan, why write her letters?
01:12:33Actual mailed letters.
01:12:35He was a recluse.
01:12:36But then he flies himself to New York to break up with Phoenix?
01:12:40Yeah, that is strange.
01:12:45What if he went to New York for a different reason?
01:12:47We need to rearrange this.
01:13:12He said yes.
01:13:13So he did it.
01:13:13Um, detective.
01:13:17We've cracked the case.
01:13:23Well, who done it?
01:13:25We were hoping to assemble everyone in the main room and reveal it there.
01:13:29Seriously?
01:13:30It's on brand, detective.
01:13:33You know what? Why not?
01:13:36Wonderful.
01:13:37The key to this case is right here.
01:13:45The John Mariner message.
01:13:46We found a second record hidden in these books.
01:13:50This message reveals that John expected to be killed, not killed fictively, killed in reality.
01:13:57John foresaw his own death, like the genius that he was.
01:14:01180 IQ.
01:14:05Good evening, all, and welcome.
01:14:07My name is John Mariner.
01:14:09I won't be joining you all tonight.
01:14:10I'm otherwise engaged with my...
01:14:12My name is John Mariner.
01:14:13M figured out the beginning of the clue.
01:14:17That John Mariner translates to John Myrtle, which led us to the secret room and to John's body.
01:14:24But this name code wasn't only about the secret room.
01:14:28It is the key to the entirety of a longer coded message.
01:14:31But beginning with the hidden name, M, what language is Myrtle?
01:14:37Gaelic, from Scotland.
01:14:38Hickory Dickory Dock. The mouse ran up the clock.
01:14:42Hickory Dickory Dock. Why that rhyme?
01:14:45He wanted us to pay attention to time.
01:14:48Misdirection. Remember the key to the code.
01:14:50A name contained in a book.
01:14:56Hickory Dickory Dock was a popular rhyme in Scotland,
01:15:00but not exclusively for children.
01:15:03Scottish shepherds used the rhyme as a counting scheme to keep track of their flock.
01:15:08Except they began the rhyme using the Gaelic words,
01:15:11Hevera, Devera, Dick, or 8, 9, and 10.
01:15:15Now, Mariner said that he was counting on us to solve his riddle.
01:15:20The name code has led us to the number key, 8, 9, 10.
01:15:24Sorry I'm late.
01:15:25That's fine. I'm sure that Detective Trent will catch up, Speed Chief.
01:15:27Sorry, I'm confused. What does 8, 9, 10 have to do with anything?
01:15:31Well, let us enlighten you.
01:15:35So, this is the entirety of John's message after the nursery rhyme.
01:15:39Now, when I first heard it, I thought it was just dog roll,
01:15:42that John was just trying to sound poetic.
01:15:44It verges on nonsense.
01:15:46But that is a clue, of course, that it contains a hidden message.
01:15:49You just need to know the code.
01:15:51Hickory, Dickory, Dock.
01:15:53Hevera, Devera, Dick.
01:15:558, 9, 10.
01:15:56Now, if you count out every 8th, 9th, and 10th word, it reveals a hidden message.
01:16:01My killer is among us.
01:16:08A free man, fire.
01:16:13What does that mean?
01:16:13Well, fire is your surname, Morgan.
01:16:18Fuego.
01:16:19You think I...
01:16:20Sorry, no, we haven't finished yet.
01:16:21So, this has brought us full circle back to the name book.
01:16:30Free man is...
01:16:31What my name means.
01:16:32Charles.
01:16:33Carlos.
01:16:36Free man.
01:16:36That's right.
01:16:37John knew Carlos was going to kill him as revenge for John's affair with Morgan for the last six months.
01:16:48So, you are the reason John left me.
01:16:51We were not having an affair.
01:16:52Well, whether you were or you weren't, Carlos believed that you were.
01:16:56Yusea found the chloroform bottle in your room, and the police found the poison and the darts.
01:17:00Hang on.
01:17:01So, you're saying Merton knew Carlos was going to kill him?
01:17:06He was a genius.
01:17:07Right, 180 IQ, I remember.
01:17:09So, this genius came to Mystery Island where he knew Carlos would be.
01:17:13And that I'd be to solve the crime.
01:17:15And me.
01:17:16Yes, Janie has been surprisingly helpful.
01:17:18You're right that Merton needed you here because you are part of the story.
01:17:21Story.
01:17:22Carlos, what's your IQ?
01:17:24I have no idea.
01:17:25But you're clever enough to know not to hide incriminating evidence in your own room.
01:17:29Are you suggesting that Carlos isn't the killer?
01:17:32We are, yes.
01:17:33Now, there is no question that what you have laid out is very on-brand for Mystery Island.
01:17:39You've got an elaborate game, a secret hiding spot for a murder weapon, and the very human motive
01:17:45of revenge.
01:17:46Now, the real solution to this crime features the same elements.
01:17:49Elaborate game, hiding spot for a murder weapon, revenge.
01:17:53I'm sorry, real solution.
01:17:55The job of an actual detective, not people playing games, is to look for the seemingly
01:18:00dull, simple details. Like, why is there a drone remote control three feet away from a dead man
01:18:07with no drone to go with?
01:18:08We found this offshore, intentionally crashed in the water.
01:18:13Even genius killers make simple mistakes.
01:18:16This killer should have found out a way to destroy the remote control,
01:18:20because it has been the undoing of the entire mystery.
01:18:23What are you talking about? That Carlos did something with the drone?
01:18:27No, not Carlos. He's not the killer.
01:18:29So, who is?
01:18:31Well, let's go back.
01:18:35Who knew about the secret passage?
01:18:36No one else other than myself and Mr. Murtaugh knew about it.
01:18:40The story that Murtaugh wrote, starting with the secret room,
01:18:43was stolen from the safe in Frederick's office.
01:18:45I'm the only one with the combination to the safe, not Murtaugh.
01:18:48Well, yes, of course.
01:18:50So, Frederick's did it. The butler did it, just like the first weekend.
01:18:54And you said the motive was revenge for his eye.
01:18:58The killer did want revenge for having something taken from him.
01:19:02Not an eye. An eye land.
01:19:05Murtaugh's supposed to be this creative genius, and maybe he is.
01:19:09But he's a financial idiot.
01:19:11I set up an angel group of investors to buy the controlling shares,
01:19:15and try to save the island from its creator.
01:19:18But he found out what Carlos had done.
01:19:20He said he wouldn't let me destroy the island.
01:19:24He'd destroy me.
01:19:25Murtaugh thought of himself as a creative genius.
01:19:29He feared Carlos' focus on the bottom line would turn his precious creation into a generic tourist trap.
01:19:35Carlos had control and money.
01:19:39He made Murtaugh feel so small.
01:19:42The only way for Murtaugh to take back control was to make Carlos a criminal,
01:19:46to frame him for murder.
01:19:49Murtaugh knew the combination to the safe.
01:19:56He built the desk in Carlos' room.
01:19:58He built the secret room.
01:20:00He waited for Frederick's to go up there, sticking to the script, and chloroformed it.
01:20:05But he couldn't shoot himself at close range with a dart.
01:20:07It wouldn't work for the story.
01:20:09The drone.
01:20:17He shot himself, released the gun over the railing, and flew the drone out to sea and crashed.
01:20:22Well, that's a locked room mystery twist worthy of Sheridan Le Fanu.
01:20:27He was meticulous in his planning, but life doesn't work like a game.
01:20:31He didn't predict that Lucia would go digging for evidence in the rooms and find the chloroform before we did.
01:20:38Or that she would try to blackmail Morgan.
01:20:40No, I warned her.
01:20:41I didn't kill her, I swear.
01:20:44She attacked me when I said I wouldn't pay.
01:20:46Lucia fell.
01:20:47Her death was an accident.
01:20:49Murtaugh also couldn't have expected Detective Goose to break his ankle and that Jason will be here.
01:20:56Or that Amelia would be here and be as helpful as she's been.
01:21:00Including calling her friend at the number one oncology center in New York.
01:21:04What now?
01:21:05The autopsy revealed Murtaugh had terminal cancer.
01:21:09What if the doctor phobe finally realized it might not be an ulcer and he flew to the top cancer hospital in the world?
01:21:15Tony, it's Amelia Priestley.
01:21:17I have a deceased patient and I'm wondering if he might have come to you guys for a diagnosis.
01:21:22That's why Murtaugh was in New York.
01:21:24Not to break up with you, Phoenix.
01:21:26So, John Murtaugh found out he was dying.
01:21:31And he used what time he had left to congoct a scenario.
01:21:35To get revenge on the man that he believed would destroy his dream.
01:21:41Well done, you too.
01:21:57If you ever come to the UK, you have a room in my castle.
01:22:03Ciao.
01:22:06Surely I have a castle?
01:22:07More than one.
01:22:10I wanted to thank you.
01:22:11Thank you, ma'am.
01:22:12The proper response is, you're welcome.
01:22:15What are you thanking me for?
01:22:17For reminding me that what I do, as hard as it can be, matters.
01:22:22And I'm not walking away from it.
01:22:25You're welcome.
01:22:27And thank you.
01:22:27I couldn't have done this without you.
01:22:30Listen, I owe you two a lot.
01:22:34And I want to say that for a genius, John could be pretty stupid.
01:22:38I'm not going to change Mystery Island.
01:22:40Just make it profitable.
01:22:41And I'm not going to be CEO.
01:22:46Frederick's is.
01:22:46Congratulations.
01:22:47Thank you, ma'am.
01:22:49But I'll need someone to craft the mysteries.
01:22:51I'm sure Sarge is ready to go.
01:22:53And Jane.
01:22:54I was actually thinking of the two of you.
01:22:56I appreciate that, but I have a job.
01:22:58As do I.
01:22:58You'd be consultants.
01:23:00You could do it over the weekends.
01:23:01And the pay.
01:23:04Oh my goodness.
01:23:07We'd split this.
01:23:08No, that's for each of you.
01:23:10Think about it.
01:23:11It's quite flattering.
01:23:17And I guess you'd have to come down here every so often.
01:23:19So that we could meet.
01:23:21I'm at work.
01:23:23I'm at work.
01:23:24Right.
01:23:53And you'd have to talk to us.
01:23:54Say.
01:23:55All right.
01:23:55I think that you're welche.
01:23:56Stop and keep in on.
