00:00Brace yourself. Alexa is taking a vacation.
00:02I see it, but I do not believe it.
00:04You said to come. Here I am.
00:06About six weeks ago, an expat Irish woman died.
00:09The woman's husband is someone who we almost put away.
00:12It's a great apprentice, isn't it?
00:13You were never able to prove anything.
00:15But it's going to be very entertaining watching you try.
00:17Was she an experienced scuba diver?
00:19You will be aware of the dangers.
00:21I'm not answering any more of your questions.
00:23This is where Ola died.
00:24I've checked it out, of course, but fresh eyes.
00:26A button from a tropical shed.
00:28And you know who has an extensive collection of those?
00:30What were you doing at the coast?
00:32I was with a patient.
00:33Denise, from New Zealand. That's all I know.
00:35He's got a shirt, missing a little tree button.
00:37No, still working on that one.
00:39Ola's death was a tragic accident.
00:41Ola! Ola?
00:44You're not in any danger.
00:46She won't direct me here.
00:47About six months ago, they had a visit from a private detective
00:50asking me about the case, ex-Australian homicide.
00:52What are you looking for?
00:53Please tell me it's not a shirt with a missing button.
00:56You've been lying to me, haven't you?
00:57Well, I'm sorry I wasn't honest about Graydon or moving here.
01:02I mean, I couldn't save Ola.
01:05Help!
01:10The doctors are not on site.
01:11I could try calling you again.
01:12He might be with Fia Collins from the spa.
01:14Have you got her number?
01:15Sorry, no.
01:16Okay, we'll try the restaurant and see who else you can find.
01:19Come on Jessie, wake up.
01:20Fia, Fia.
01:21Come on.
01:22Come on.
01:23Come on.
01:24Come on.
01:25Come on.
01:26Come on.
01:27Come on.
01:28Come on.
01:29Come on.
01:34Come on.
01:35Come on.
01:38Come on.
01:44Fia.
01:45It's Alexa Crow.
01:46Put Graydon on.
01:47Yeah, how is she? You hear from her?
01:50Uh, yes, I have.
01:51She's doing good. She's relaxing. Not giving us a second thought.
01:55Yeah, I think so.
01:59Do you remember this case from 2019?
02:04Oh, yeah. Doctor's wife died of cyanide poisoning.
02:07That's the one. Braden Prentiss.
02:09Apparently he lives in Fiji now.
02:12What, Alexa knew this?
02:13Well, the guy she's with did.
02:15She's with a guy?
02:16I'm pretty sure she is, yeah.
02:18What guy?
02:19Well, she wouldn't share his name.
02:23What happened?
02:24The orange juice. It has an almondy smell.
02:26I think it's been laced with cyanide.
02:28Who's he pissed off?
02:30Who else is he pissed off, I should say?
02:32Look, I want you here about as much as you want to be here.
02:35Can you treat him?
02:37Sodium nitrate should do it.
02:39I'll put a line in while we wait for the paramedics.
02:42Why wouldn't she just say she was with a guy?
02:46Why does it have to be so mysterious all the time?
02:50Harry, the great apprentice case?
02:52Right. Yeah, it wasn't one of mine.
02:54But I remember the team was sus because how does possum bait end up in a vegetable garden?
02:58But the police couldn't prove anything.
03:00Coroner ruled misadventure.
03:02And then we found out about the guy's previous two marriages and two dead wives.
03:07And guess who investigated the first case 25 years ago?
03:10Really? Elixir?
03:17Well, this is awkward.
03:20I'd offer a lift to the hospital, but...
03:22I don't do hospitals.
03:25So, I'll ask.
03:27Why is there cyanide in your minibar?
03:33Oh, so now I've done that too.
03:36And then what? Race to the rescue?
03:39Well, you could hardly refuse.
03:42Even you would have taken the Hippocratic oath.
03:49Jesse brought the orange juice from his place, so clearly it was him they were after.
03:53Unless they were planning to take out both of us.
03:57Whoever they are.
03:58Go back to New Zealand, Alexa. You're wasting your time.
04:02And mine.
04:07Join me!
04:10Wait.
04:12Standards.
04:17Who's going?
04:21Sm sunt.
04:26Mads.
04:26Hey. How are you?
04:28Having the time of your life?
04:29I think we've been going down the wrong path.
04:33Graydon Prentice didn't kill this wife or any of the wives?
04:36No, he definitely killed the first one in Melbourne.
04:39Jessie and I attended.
04:40Jessie? And who might Jessie be?
04:42He's an old friend.
04:45My first homicide partner, actually.
04:49Yeah, we were noobies together.
04:52Alexa, are you OK?
04:55Yes.
04:58So, Prentice's wives, two and three, you're working on.
05:03Wife number four.
05:05Yes?
05:07It's just, he signed the death certificate.
05:10And he took care of the body.
05:14He told me that all was different.
05:17That he loved her, and maybe he did.
05:22Or maybe I saw a ghost today.
05:25OK, you're slightly freaking me out.
05:30No, no, don't freak out.
05:33I actually think I'm getting somewhere, and somebody doesn't like it.
05:37What?
05:37Why?
05:37What happened?
05:39I'll be fine.
05:41OK, talk soon, eh?
05:50Hey, Maddie.
05:53I really will.
05:54What?
05:56I didn't have time to pack much.
05:57Alexa won't mind.
05:59When's she back anyway?
05:59How long have I got?
06:01That's a good question.
06:03You all right?
06:05You need a coffee?
06:07Something's going on with her.
06:09Yeah?
06:10My what?
06:11I don't know exactly.
06:12I wish I did, but...
06:14I'm asking myself, what would Alexa Crowe do?
06:17And?
06:18What would she do?
06:21She would find out.
06:21Is your fourth wife actually dead?
06:31Are you running some kind of insurance scam?
06:33What are you talking about?
06:34I wrote the death certificate myself.
06:36Yes.
06:37Very convenient.
06:39You see, most people, when they fake a death for insurance money,
06:43well, there's rarely ever a body.
06:45It's usually a missing, presumed death.
06:47You've really lost the plot, Detective.
06:49I saw Orla yesterday.
06:51Or someone who looked very much like her.
06:54What's the matter, Grey?
06:56Is she not supposed to be back yet?
06:58Is she messing with the plan?
07:01If you don't think Orla is dead,
07:03then you no longer believe I killed her.
07:06So do me a favor,
07:08and leave me the hell alone.
07:15Was Orla short of cash?
07:18Uh, no.
07:19Her parents were really well old.
07:21New money, old money.
07:24Other people's money.
07:26What on earth does that mean?
07:29Look, Orla was fine, financially.
07:33Being sick, her parents just paid for everything.
07:37Nothing in this is straightforward, is it?
07:42Are you okay?
07:44Hey.
07:44Yeah.
07:44What do you need?
07:46Do you need?
07:50Talk about tense, Alexa.
07:57Hey.
07:58How about a freebie?
08:02Hmm?
08:02You want to get your gear off, fly back, relax.
08:08Seeing as how the boss has bailed.
08:12Wait, fear's gone.
08:14Hmm.
08:14Yeah.
08:16She called this morning.
08:18Something about needing to fly back to New Zealand last minute.
08:24Well, I wonder if this had anything to do with Jessie.
08:26Hmm.
08:27Maybe scared her off.
08:29Oh, Jessie.
08:30Um, sorry.
08:33Did I cross a line?
08:36I don't know.
08:36Did you?
08:37Well, if you did, I kind of liked it.
08:39But I've got to pick somebody up from the hospitals.
08:41Okay.
08:42Um.
08:44Maybe I can come back for that freebie later.
08:46Do you think he'll need some help settling in?
08:57Or I could just bail, you know?
08:58It's no problem.
08:59Yeah.
09:00Sorry.
09:02You know, hospitals, it's a little bit triggering, you know?
09:05Gary.
09:06Yeah.
09:07Yeah, I was waiting there, expecting it to be a long night,
09:10and in the end, he didn't even need a bed.
09:13DOA.
09:13Ah, just straight to the morgue with him.
09:19You know, Alexi, you can't actually let your guard down with me.
09:22We've known each other long enough.
09:25Then you know that I'm not the kind to sit around and mop your brow, right?
09:28I do.
09:30But honestly, I'm fine.
09:33Good.
09:35But I do have one more question.
09:39All right.
09:40Alexa Crowe.
09:41Seeing you again has been incredible.
09:47I want to spend the rest of forever with you,
09:49and I think it would be a wild ride.
09:52So please,
09:54will you marry me?
10:00This is the poison talking.
10:01Or the medications.
10:03Either way,
10:04it's a bit much.
10:05No.
10:06I was going to ask you the other day.
10:07You've had a near-death experience.
10:09You're not thinking straight.
10:10I have never been clearer.
10:13Life has brought us back together again,
10:15and this time,
10:16I'm letting you go.
10:18I need some time to thank you.
10:21I'll be here.
10:22I said I needed a little more time, Jessie.
10:31Hola.
10:33What?
10:33What's the Fijian word for surprise?
10:35I don't know,
10:35but surprise.
10:37Oh, God.
10:38Come in, come in.
10:43So you're not mad I'm gate-crashing your vacation?
10:45Not at all.
10:47Only, uh,
10:48ooh, you did get your own room, right?
10:50Because I was thinking of having a massage therapist come by.
10:52Oh, good.
10:53So you're not just working?
10:54No, no, I am.
10:55Uh, mostly.
10:56And it'll be good to have another pair of eyes on this case.
10:59I thought you had another pair of eyes.
11:01Uh, Jessie.
11:02Yes, he's, uh, recovering from cyanide poisoning.
11:05Harry didn't tell you?
11:06He did not.
11:07I figured we were getting close to something
11:09and somebody wanted to stop us.
11:11Well, stop Jessie, actually.
11:12The only thing I'm not sure about now is who.
11:15I'm so glad that I'm here.
11:16Is he okay?
11:17Is the poison going to have any lasting effects?
11:19Far from making him spontaneously propose marriage.
11:22Who did he propose to?
11:25You?
11:26Seriously?
11:26I had a speech and a ring and everything.
11:29I'm sorry, what?
11:30Don't worry, I didn't say yes.
11:32Okay, well, good.
11:34I said I'd think about it.
11:35Hey, who's looking after my cat?
11:38No, no.
11:39Don't change the subject, Alexa.
11:40You said that you'd think about it,
11:42so you're seriously considering this?
11:43You were the one who said I should find someone,
11:45and don't you change the subject.
11:47I meant like a no-strings fling or two,
11:49not a new husband.
11:50Madison, who is looking after my cat?
11:53Okay, so don't be mad.
11:55Madison.
11:56Oh, hey.
12:14Hey, I'm outside.
12:16You want to let me in?
12:17I can't, but we'll might.
12:19Well, if he's here, he's not answering.
12:21No, he wouldn't, in case you're Evangeline, the femme fatale.
12:25Well, it's Harry Henare, friend of Alexa and Madison's.
12:30I mean, I don't need to go in.
12:32Good deal with the coffee, though.
12:33Where are you, anyway?
12:35I'm in Fiji with Alexa.
12:37What, were you?
12:38You don't want to keep me in the loop?
12:40It was a sudden decision.
12:42I thought Alexa might need me.
12:43Well, you might be right.
12:45I just got the tox results back Alexa was wanting.
12:47Also why I'm here trying to visit you.
12:49And?
12:50Hefty amounts of cyanide.
12:52Her friend's lucky to be alive.
12:53Maybe that's why he proposed.
12:55Hey?
12:56He and Alexa have history.
12:59Really?
13:01Um, what's he like?
13:03I haven't met him yet.
13:04And Alexa hasn't said yes, but she also hasn't said no.
13:08Right.
13:09Anyway, I have to go, Harry.
13:10I've got work to do.
13:11Oh, it's okay, Chowder.
13:23The coast is clear.
13:24The nasty copper is gone.
13:26I know, I know.
13:27He's a buddy of Alexa's,
13:28but I've got a bit of a complicated relationship
13:30with the boys in blue.
13:33Oh, my God.
13:34Medicine's gone five minutes,
13:35and I'm talking to the cat.
13:38Oh, good morning.
13:45Can I help?
13:45You're the doctor, right?
13:47Great apprentice.
13:48I'm Madison.
13:49I think I'm allergic to something.
13:50I have these bites.
13:52Please.
13:53Have you been swimming in the ocean?
13:56No, I only arrived last night.
13:58I'm usually fine with antihistamines.
14:00Well, they have limited supplies here.
14:04I'll see what I can dig out.
14:07Do you usually get a reaction to mosquito bites, Madison?
14:11Uh, I do.
14:12I, um, I find them really annoying.
14:15Oh.
14:17You know what?
14:18Uh, I think I might go for prevention rather than cure.
14:21Do you have any, like, insect repellent?
14:23Well, they sell it at the gift shop.
14:25Oh, amazing.
14:26Thank you, doctor.
14:30Excuse me.
14:40Somebody drop this on the beach.
14:41They'll be missing it by now.
14:46Most interesting thing on Graydon's phone?
14:48A bunch of deleted emails from one N. O'Flannery.
14:52O'Flannery?
14:52That's all his maiden name.
14:54Mm-hmm.
14:54What did they say?
14:55Mr. O'Flannery described in colourful detail
14:57what he was going to do when he next saw Graydon.
15:00No, wait.
15:01Because in the will, Ola's dad was called Dermot.
15:04Mm.
15:05Well, and O'Flannery was also going on about some property
15:08that Graydon's stolen.
15:09He was saying,
15:10you can't keep ignoring us,
15:11you snivelling clotharda.
15:13What's a clotharda?
15:16What?
15:17She just passed by again.
15:19Who?
15:20Ola, the dead wife.
15:21Orla, get away with you.
15:50Who are you?
15:51Because you look just like someone who died here six weeks ago.
15:54I hate you.
15:54And people say me and Ola look alike.
15:56Makes me want to hurt him.
15:58What are you, a twin?
15:59Shite, no.
16:00She's 14 months older.
16:02Me big sister.
16:03I'm sorry for your loss.
16:05I'm Alexa Crow.
16:06Friend of Ola's.
16:08I never met her, but I'm looking into her death.
16:10Oh, Jesus.
16:12Don't tell me I'm talking to a police officer.
16:15Not anymore.
16:15I retired.
16:16Yeah.
16:17Sard of light.
16:18Well, I kind of had a crisis.
16:20So now I bake sourdough and I try to set things right, like Orla.
16:26Now, there are people here who say that her death is suspicious.
16:30Is that right?
16:34Niamh.
16:34Oh, Niamh, O'Flannery.
16:40What's a clathada?
16:43Graydon told you about me emails, did he?
16:45The bleating wheat packs?
16:46Well, I saw them.
16:48We'll put it like that.
16:50What did he steal from you?
16:54Orla had the O'Flannery heirlooms with her.
16:58To get passed down to the oldest O'Flannery girl in each generation.
17:02She'd brought it all here and then she went and died.
17:05And that's why you're here?
17:07To pick up a couple of antiques?
17:09I'd been politely telling him to ship him back to Dublin, but not a peep from him.
17:18Hey, I was asked to relax her.
17:20You must be bachelor number one.
17:22I'm Madison.
17:23I'm the famous Madison.
17:24I'm Jessie.
17:26Jessie Wrights.
17:28Hey, guess who I just met?
17:31Orla's sister, Niamh O'Flannery.
17:34Oh, of the colourful emails.
17:37What is Niamh doing back?
17:40You know about her.
17:41Yeah, she was visiting Orla a week before she died.
17:44If she left the day of, maybe Graydon waited until she'd gone before he...
17:49Well, he's in trouble now.
17:51What, you think she's here for revenge?
17:52That and some precious family heirlooms.
17:54I can't figure out if they're worth a million bucks or just sentimental.
17:58So is Niamh all talk?
17:59Or should Graydon be very scared?
18:02Possibly.
18:06Oh, uh, Madison.
18:07Jessie, Jessie Madison.
18:09Yes, we've met.
18:10Oh, situation at the spa.
18:12How dare you lay hands on my sister?
18:19I'm a massage therapist.
18:20It's literally my job to...
18:21What kind of...
18:21What kind of mass seems literally rubs their client to death?
18:23No, I did it, please.
18:24I loved all that.
18:25I gave her my kidney.
18:26Okay, let's calm down, eh?
18:28Come on.
18:28Hey, hey, hey.
18:29Ah!
18:30Jesus!
18:30Jessie?
18:31Yeah, it's okay.
18:32I'm good.
18:32Oh, my God.
18:35Oh, my God.
18:37What is it, Alexa?
18:38Are you okay, Louise?
18:40So much for Niamh being all talk.
18:42It's not the same without Orla.
18:50God, I don't even know why I'm still here.
18:53Now, Niamh is blaming you for her sister's death.
18:55Yes, because you told her there was something suspicious about Orla dying.
19:00That's what she took from our conversation?
19:02She's unhinged, Alexa.
19:04They're all unhinged.
19:06Oh, my God.
19:07Oh, my God.
19:10Poor Orla.
19:18Louise, I have to ask this.
19:22Your feelings, why?
19:27She was straight.
19:30Half from one fun night out in Bali, which I may have read too much into.
19:37We're my best friends, Alexa.
19:43And the truth is, she couldn't stand her family.
19:47Why else do you think that she moved all the way down here to a Pacific island?
19:52And I don't know why Niamh is here now, but I am not sticking around to find out.
19:57That's it for me.
19:58I am done.
19:59Where will you go?
20:01I don't know.
20:02Back to Auckland, I guess.
20:03So, yeah, we should swap numbers.
20:10I never did give you that free session.
20:16Did Niamh actually leave Fiji before Orla's death?
20:20Or is that just what everyone thinks?
20:22Thanks, Sinead.
20:26Hey, just speaking to an old gaming friend who works for the Garda in Dublin.
20:29She's about to send...
20:31Wait, there it is.
20:32Niamh's criminal record.
20:34She has one, huh?
20:35Oh, boy, does she have one.
20:37Well, she has fitted a lot in her young life.
20:40But did she kill her sister?
20:44I think maybe it's time we got Orla's side of the story.
20:47And through a medium?
20:50Do you have any of the heirlooms Niamh was asking about?
20:54I buried most of them with Orla.
20:58They clad her to wearing some jewellery.
21:00She always wore them.
21:01Well, what else was I meant to do with them?
21:07Send them back to Ireland would have been the correct answer.
21:10I just hoped that was the last I'd see of the O'Flannery's.
21:14So there's nothing you can give back to Niamh?
21:17Um, a timepiece and brooches and that ugly thing.
21:25It's a long way to come if you're not tied with your sister, which is what I heard.
21:29Oh, I see where you're going.
21:33You think Niamh might have heard Orla?
21:36I didn't say that.
21:38No, but you think it.
21:39Niamh was on a plane before Orla was even in the ground.
21:43Make of that what you will.
21:44She didn't take any of the family heirlooms.
21:48What was the hurry?
21:50Exactly, McAngryface.
21:53The smart one.
21:54Although you've taken an eternity to see what's in front of you.
21:58You know, you're very rude.
22:01And how are those insect bites, little Miss Marple?
22:04Or were you just clumsily scoping out the enemy?
22:06Actually, I nicked your phone and you didn't even notice.
22:09Okay.
22:11Um, thanks Graydon for your help.
22:13So you came all the way here to see your sister.
22:23You left without saying goodbye.
22:26And now you've come back.
22:28That sounds implausible.
22:30That git has her clatter ring.
22:33It was buried with Orla.
22:34What?
22:36Do you have a flannery sword?
22:38Above ground.
22:40Good.
22:41Belonged to my great-great-grandfather.
22:43He was in the military?
22:44No.
22:45He was a debt collector.
22:46Is it true that Orla moved here to put some distance between her and her family?
22:58She was ashamed of us.
23:00She'd married a well-to-do doctor.
23:03Suppose she thought she was too good for us after that.
23:09Did you know that Orla was Graydon's fourth wife?
23:12And that all of his previous wives died unexpectedly.
23:20No, Alexa.
23:23I was not aware.
23:25Oh, hey.
23:26Hey.
23:27Niamh O'Flannery claims not to have known about Graydon's history.
23:30Okay, am I missing something here?
23:32Why are we looking into Niamh now?
23:33Because Orla doesn't match the profile of Graydon's other victims.
23:36But she was his wife and now she's dead.
23:38You don't get more profile-matchy than that.
23:40He didn't stand to gain anything from her dad.
23:42Okay, I'm listening to you because you're usually right.
23:44Always right.
23:46But I just don't get why Niamh would want to poison me.
23:51Reasonable point.
23:54Hey, Croke, one other thing that's been troubling me is...
23:58I asked this woman to marry me, and then she's left me hanging.
24:03So what do you think I should do?
24:08This is quite big for me.
24:12I only just started liking people again.
24:15Oh, okay.
24:16I get it.
24:18You need time.
24:19Just, uh, hold on to this while you make up your mind.
24:30It's gorgeous.
24:43Are you going to wear it or just look at it?
24:47Yeah, I can't really see you leaving the big city and staying here forever.
24:51Why would I?
24:52It's hideous.
24:54I suppose there's got to be less homicide.
24:56That's a bonus.
24:57But you must, um, you love him, right?
25:04Why do you say that?
25:06You haven't said no yet.
25:10Oh, crap.
25:17Yeah, yeah.
25:20Okay.
25:23All right.
25:23Cheers.
25:24Oh, Niamh.
25:30What have you done?
25:37Niamh never took the family sword.
25:40Aye.
25:41Super police have taken over.
25:43Niamh's fingerprints all over the front door.
25:45There we go.
25:46She boarded a flight back to Dublin, but they can intercept her at a stopover in Auckland.
25:50Yeah, that'll be Harry and his team.
25:51So, case closed.
25:53Graydon killed Orla.
25:55And when Alexa told Niamh about his history, she saw red.
25:58As much as I would have loved to see that man spend the rest of his life rotting in prison,
26:03I guess the planet just rid itself of one evil prick.
26:06Oh, the planet did it.
26:07Come on, Alexa.
26:08So you didn't solve the case.
26:10I would have liked that too, but what are you going to do?
26:12Agreed.
26:13Graydon had form, but he messed with the wrong family.
26:16All right.
26:16Well, don't mind me.
26:17It's just a lot to think about.
26:19Well, I can help you with that if you want.
26:21I could make you dinner tonight.
26:24You two go ahead.
26:25I'm going to stay in and order room service.
26:31It's a date.
26:34See you tonight, Jessie.
26:35See you tonight, Jessie.
27:05See you tonight, Jessie.
27:35With the good eyes seeing you I learned to love you
27:41From a distance
27:45In the light I conjured up
27:51Bless all of us right here
27:57Morning.
27:58You were up very early.
28:00Yes.
28:01Well, we don't want to miss our flight.
28:03Well, you're going back to Auckland today?
28:05Mm-hmm.
28:06But don't panic.
28:07You're coming with me.
28:08I am.
28:09Sure.
28:10I am sorry that I have not got an answer for you yet,
28:14but at home I've got a life and friends and a cat.
28:19Oh, you're asking me to meet your cat.
28:23What do you say?
28:25Do I get to take home a souvenir?
28:27Absolutely.
28:28Well, go pack.
28:30We've got a plane to catch.
28:31All right?
28:39I will never go away without you again,
28:41my handsome, handsome ginger prince.
28:43I promise.
28:44I hope Jessie's a cat person.
28:48So should I, uh...
28:51Do you want me to find somewhere else to live?
28:55No.
28:57No, no.
28:58Hey.
29:00You're back.
29:01Well spotted.
29:02Start talking.
29:03Sure.
29:04Uh, you're welcome, sis.
29:05It was no problem taking care of Childa.
29:07Happy to do at any time.
29:08What kind of trouble are you in?
29:10Well, maybe I just wanted a change of scenery.
29:12How was your vacation?
29:13You looked a picture of serenity.
29:15You must have really relaxed.
29:18What the hell was that?
29:19Oh, that's Alexa got engaged.
29:22Hey?
29:23Haven't said yes yet.
29:24What, who's this?
29:25Some bloke you met on the beach?
29:26Nah, there's something going on.
29:28It's a trick, right?
29:29Or she just met someone and has fallen in love,
29:32just like a normal human.
29:34What's really going on, Lex?
29:35Stop deflecting.
29:36What did you do to this Evangeline woman?
29:38Try to rip her off?
29:39Double cross it?
29:40You know what?
29:41I'm going to go feed my friend Childa.
29:43At least he likes me.
29:47So, Alexa Crow took a vacation.
29:50Uh-huh.
29:51Two dead bodies, a cyanide poisoning
29:53and a marriage proposal.
29:55Am I missing anything?
29:56No, that about sums it up.
29:58What about the part where you drag Mr. Wright back home with you?
30:01Is nothing a secret?
30:03What, you were planning on hiding him in your apartment?
30:05He's in a hotel for now.
30:07Thank you, Ruber.
30:09Thank you, Harry.
30:10Mm, so it's true then?
30:12Oh, this?
30:14I'm leaving him hanging for now.
30:16Ah, woman's prerogative, I guess.
30:19Shall we?
30:26Give me a buzzer when you're ready.
30:27Yeah.
30:30Enjoying New Zealand?
30:31I'm not loving it.
30:33That's a shame.
30:36I didn't kill that prick Graydon.
30:38You went to his house, though.
30:39Your prints were on the door handle.
30:41Yes.
30:42I went there.
30:43To take back my family belongings.
30:45And what happened when you got there?
30:48I thought he was too chicken shite to answer the door to me,
30:51so I let myself in.
30:53And there he was.
30:55The O'Flannery sword sticking out of his chest.
30:57And you didn't think to call anyone?
30:59I don't know anyone on the island.
31:01A police, Nev.
31:02That's what people normally call when they find a dead body.
31:06You've got to help me, Alexa.
31:09Look, I didn't do this.
31:12I know.
31:14So I'm gonna need you to hang tight.
31:17You believe me?
31:18Well, I think that if you were going to kill Graydon Prentice,
31:21you wouldn't have used the family sword.
31:23Exactly!
31:24Why do you use a big caravan knife?
31:26You might want to tone it down while you're a guest of the New Zealand government.
31:30I need you to do me a favour.
31:31Uh-huh.
31:32Tonight I want to spend a little bit of time alone with Jessie,
31:34and I don't want to boot Madison out.
31:36She's a bit, you know, out of sorts, I think.
31:38Yeah, I get that.
31:40Would you look at that?
31:42That is Graydon and Denise of West Auckland smiling on her 70th birthday despite a coral cut.
31:47Well, not what you were expecting.
31:49It doesn't matter now.
31:50He's dead.
31:52Anyway, tonight?
31:53Yeah, sure. We'll go out for dinner.
31:54Oh, thanks.
31:56Hey, love, a spoiler.
31:58What are you gonna say to this Jessie guy?
32:07I'm just gonna say yes.
32:12Are you really going to town here, huh?
32:14Are you still here?
32:15Oh.
32:16Oh, I'm sorry.
32:17I wasn't expecting you to bring some dude back to New Zealand and be all engaged.
32:20Just say the word, I'll leave.
32:22The word.
32:26Alright, Lex, this whole thing with Evangeline, it's not what you think.
32:29You're hiding in my apartment from your former grifting partner, Will.
32:32That's what I think.
32:35Alright, did I ever tell you about the year that I got three and a half European cars for free?
32:42Oh, no, no, no. Sweet.
32:44I'd go through the newspaper obituaries.
32:47Identify a mark.
32:48Dead guy, obviously.
32:49Had to be rich, elderly.
32:51Then I'd approach the dear old widows, introduce myself, offer my condolences.
32:55Please, God, let them be a happy ending.
32:57I'd tell them I knew John or Bob or Dick or whoever he was from the country club or the golf club or tennis club.
33:04You know, tell them that I worked there as a bartender or a caddy or a coach, you know.
33:10Tell them how he was a great guy.
33:12A really nice man and how I'd always admired his car.
33:15And I'd love to buy it.
33:16I mean, it'd be an honour.
33:17You creep.
33:18And if you think about it, which I have been a lot recently, uh, who really got hurt?
33:24Someone's about to in a sec when I smack him with my dough hook.
33:29Okay, yes, I'm hiding out from Evangeline, all right?
33:32But it's because if she finds me...
33:34She'll kill you.
33:35She'll have to get in line.
33:36No, if she finds me, I'm worried that I'm going to say yes.
33:39All right?
33:40She's trying to...
33:42She's trying to drag me back in and I...
33:45I don't want to do it, all right?
33:47I've changed.
33:48She's very hard to say no to.
33:50I don't want to scam people anymore.
33:53It's just...
33:54There's only so much temptation a man can take.
33:59You have changed.
34:02Yeah, well...
34:04For better or worse, people do.
34:09Okay, Will, you can stay here as long as you need, but not tonight, all right?
34:12I need the place to myself.
34:14Yeah, you've got the big night with the hubby to be, eh?
34:16Still holding the dough hook, Will.
34:17Yeah, all right. You have a good night.
34:18See you.
34:29I love your place.
34:31Mm-hmm.
34:32And I love Chowder.
34:34Which I think is good.
34:37Because I suspect he is a deal breaker.
34:41Well, it's definitely one of them.
34:43One of the others.
34:44Because I could really get used to this.
34:46Hold that thought.
34:48I'm gonna slip into something more comfortable.
34:59This is me now.
35:01Being booted out so Alexa and Jessie can be alone.
35:04So you think you might move out?
35:05Well, she said no, but...
35:07I don't know.
35:08I hope she'll still want to help me out from time to time.
35:11Of course she will.
35:12Maybe.
35:13Marriage changes, people.
35:14I'm not Alexa.
35:16Although today she was so laid back she was almost laying down.
35:19Today?
35:20Yeah, she reached a dead end in their investigation.
35:22What dead end?
35:23She heard from the woman Graydon treated for a coral cut the day his wife died.
35:28Denise?
35:29So wait, Alexa's confirmed Graydon's alibi?
35:31Yeah, she was surprisingly fine about it.
35:33No, no, she wasn't.
35:35She didn't bend an eyelid.
35:36Harry, think about it.
35:37Um...
35:38I'm lost.
35:39Alexa wouldn't rest until she solved the case.
35:42And if Graydon didn't kill Orla, then who did?
35:45And if Alexa isn't asking that question...
35:47She already knows the answer.
35:48She solved it.
35:50And she wanted me and Will out of the house.
35:53Shit.
35:58So?
35:59Do you like it?
36:02Guess what?
36:04It's missing a butt.
36:05You can't be serious, Alexa.
36:08Are you that desperate for an answer?
36:10I'm not desperate.
36:11Not like you've been.
36:13Reflecting on your career.
36:15The highs, the lows, the one that got away.
36:17Graydon killed Orla.
36:19And then her crazy sister did him in.
36:22Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm.
36:24Now you've been feeding me clues since I got to Fiji.
36:27And we both got regrets about the previous case.
36:30But some of us put those regrets behind us.
36:33Not you, no.
36:35You couldn't stop thinking about it.
36:38So you packed up your life and you followed him to Fiji.
36:42Yeah, because I knew what he was gonna do.
36:44Ah, but he didn't.
36:46No.
36:47You watched and you waited and nothing happened.
36:50Except for Graydon taunting you every second.
36:53The name calling, the gloating, the getting away with murder 25 years ago.
37:00Graydon knew you couldn't do a thing about it.
37:02So did you.
37:03So you took matters into your own hands.
37:06Orla would be collateral damage.
37:09Really, Alexa?
37:10Do you think I would go that far?
37:12I know you did.
37:14When Graydon took off for the Coral Coast, you made your move.
37:18You waited till she was alone.
37:20And then you suffocated Orla.
37:23But the scuba dive.
37:26This embolism thing.
37:28The death was ruled a tragic medical event.
37:32Disaster.
37:35You had killed someone for nothing.
37:40No one was looking at Graydon.
37:42No one even knew it was a murder.
37:44And that's where I came in.
37:47The best detective you've ever met.
37:50I mean, I'm not bad.
37:53But better than you thought.
37:55Because you never imagined that I'd figure out what really happened.
37:59Well, you're not match fit, mate.
38:01If you think any of this is even vaguely plausible.
38:04Cut the crap, Jessie.
38:06When I found that button, you thought, I'm gonna get that shirt out of my wardrobe.
38:10But, uh...
38:12I found this receipt in your wallet.
38:15And so the other night in your house, I went looking.
38:21And guess what I found?
38:25And I'll never know why you didn't destroy this.
38:27I guess you were just too damn cocky.
38:30There's always the little things with you, wasn't there?
38:34Things a normal person would never think to look at.
38:37Well, I like to go down every road.
38:39That's why I looked into Fear and Louise.
38:41But that didn't suit you.
38:43No, you had to take drastic action.
38:46You poisoned yourself.
38:49Just enough to get sick.
38:50Just enough to make it look like Graydon had tried to take you out.
38:54To turn my attention back to him.
38:57But mainly to take the heat off yourself.
39:00Because I was starting to wonder.
39:02And I didn't want to, Jessie.
39:05Didn't want to be right.
39:07Come on, Alexa.
39:11And then Nev turned up and gave you an opportunity.
39:14Justice at long last.
39:17Great apprentice gets what he has deserved for a long, long time.
39:22And Nev takes the blame.
39:24You know, I've always loved the way you work.
39:27But do you truly think that I'm capable of any of this?
39:32Today I called an old friend in the Australian police.
39:35You didn't retire, Jessie.
39:37You were let go.
39:39Crossing lines, planting evidence.
39:43You see, Graydon was on the other side of the island when Orla was murdered.
39:48And when he showed up with a sword through his chest...
39:52Well...
39:54The CCTV at the airport and hotel were clearing leave soon enough.
39:58I'm a good person, Alexa.
40:07I'm on the right side.
40:09You killed an innocent woman, Jessie.
40:11I needed to stop Graydon.
40:13And I did.
40:14He's never gonna hurt anyone else ever again.
40:17You're just like me, Alexa.
40:21I've heard your stories.
40:23I know what you're willing to do.
40:25And I love you for it.
40:29I love you.
40:33And this?
40:34This?
40:38I meant this.
40:48Don't answer that.
40:49We're nothing like Jessie.
40:58Nothing at all.
41:01If I've got this horribly wrong and just interrupted a big moment...
41:08It's a very big moment for Jessie.
41:10Bye, Wrightson.
41:14G'day.
41:15Dr Finare.
41:16Came for a chat at the station, but you probably know the drill.
41:35You alright?
41:38Yeah, sure.
41:41Alexa, when did you know?
41:46Couple of days ago.
41:48Maybe more.
41:49I'm sorry your old friend...
41:52turned out to...
41:54not be the man you thought he was.
41:56Well, the thing about old friends is...
41:59you're trusting your younger self to choose your people.
42:04I think present Alexa has much better taste.
42:11Well, I'm not gonna argue with that.
42:20Hey.
42:23Hey.
42:25I was just writing you a note.
42:27I'm outta here.
42:28I'm outta here.
42:30Temptation got too much, eh?
42:34Nah.
42:35Nah, it's safe to go home.
42:36Angeline's on her way to the Gold Coast.
42:39Oh.
42:41That's good.
42:43Yeah.
42:46I knew it was a trip.
42:48The engagement ring, the Aussie bloke.
42:50That was a good one.
42:52It was impressive.
42:53Bringing them over here, reeling them in.
42:55That was beautiful.
42:57You know, if you ever wanted a career change, you and I would make a great team.
43:04Two of us.
43:06Grifting together.
43:08Think about it.
43:10You're a brilliant liar.
43:11Maybe even better than me.
43:15You know...
43:16You're right.
43:17We would be unstoppable.
43:20And no one would suspect us.
43:22Really?
43:23No, it just...
43:25You did it again.
43:26Brilliant.
43:27Alright, very nice.
43:28Well done.
43:29Very good.
43:32Hey.
43:34Have I ever said...
43:37I'm proud to be your brother?
43:39Get your hand off it, Will.
43:46I'm proud of you too.
43:47That's the truth.
43:48I know.
43:50Till next time, sis.
43:52Till next time.
44:17Anyone for Squid Rings?
44:19No, thank you.
44:20No way.
44:21Okay, starter for ten.
44:22What is the national sport of Fiji?
44:25Oh, bobsledding.
44:27No, rugby, of course.
44:28Exactly.
44:29And there's just been a vacancy open up for a cop, so...
44:32You thinking of taking it?
44:33He's just toying with us.
44:36Nah, you don't want to give up all this.
44:38I mean, why would you?
44:39Look at the city.
44:40Sounds like someone's happy to be back home.
44:42Yes.
44:43Home is alright.
44:44Though I am thinking of giving up on the dating scene.
44:47Fair enough.
44:48There's not a lot out there.
44:49We have to kiss a few dogs to get a prince.
44:51Or frogs even.
44:53It's just...
44:54It's gotta be about the chemistry, right?

45:10Yes.
45:11Life murder balance.
45:12Uh-huh.
45:13To life murder balance.
45:14I'll believe it when I see it, Alexa.
45:16Yeah.
45:18Her love shines over my horizon.
45:22She's a slice of heaven.
45:23Warm moonlight over my horizon.
45:26She's a slice of heaven.
45:27Warm moonlight over my horizon.
45:30She's a slice of heaven.
45:32Of the sky's of heaven.
45:33La la la, la la, la la la, la la la.
45:36La la, la la la, la la la.
45:37La la la, la la la, la la, la la la.
