00:00:00Good evening, officers.
00:00:14You have been chosen to test our new transference technology.
00:00:18A murder has been committed.
00:00:20Seemingly impossible murder of businessman Martin Donovan, strangled in his own study
00:00:27while family members and guests are in the room next door.
00:00:30Every action, every decision you make will be monitored and graded.
00:00:35The winner gets to return home immediately and retain their new rank permanently.
00:00:40Transference is the most exciting innovation of our lifetime.
00:00:47Transference is the future.
00:00:55I'm doing this for us.
00:00:57No, you're doing this for yourself.
00:00:58I just have a really bad feeling about this.
00:01:01They're using you like guinea pigs.
00:01:03It's just wrong.
00:01:05It's the only way to get promoted.
00:01:08This is something I have to do.
00:01:10I know you think you're doing the right thing, but I don't.
00:01:15Can you please just listen to me just this once?
00:01:18Don't do this.
00:01:25You're early today, Richard.
00:01:35Have we met before?
00:01:36You could say that.
00:01:38Look, something's gone very wrong.
00:01:39My partner Steven Williams has disappeared and-
00:01:41And you're being told that there is no record of any such person?
00:01:44Yes.
00:01:45You've also noticed other mysterious happenings such as pigeons and other characters all disappearing.
00:01:51You're feeling lethargic and getting weaker all the time.
00:01:53How do you know all this?
00:01:54Have a seat, Richard.
00:01:56Please.
00:01:57What's going on?
00:02:06Our programme encountered a virus.
00:02:09We have no idea how it got through our defences or where it came from.
00:02:13This virus is corrupting our files at an alarming rate.
00:02:17Non-essential components such as objects, animals and eventually people have been wiped completely
00:02:22as a safety mechanism to protect the game's key players, like yourself.
00:02:27But you're all running below capacity.
00:02:30That's why you feel so weak.
00:02:32However, as the game deteriorates further, real detectives must be wiped in order of their
00:02:38priority.
00:02:40Steven Williams was low priority.
00:02:42Steve's been returned home.
00:02:43The only way to leave this world early is to win it.
00:02:47Steven Williams has been wiped from our records.
00:02:50He no longer exists.
00:02:53He's... he's dead?
00:02:55He no longer exists.
00:02:58Well, when will you get this virus under control?
00:03:00The game engine needs repair back in the real world, but we've never had any assistance.
00:03:05So, what do you think's gonna happen?
00:03:07I can tell you exactly what will happen.
00:03:09At 7.47pm, this game will immediately shut down and reboot.
00:03:14What does that mean?
00:03:15It means that in less than six hours, this entire day will begin again.
00:03:19And everything, including Steven, yourself, everything gets re-instigated, as if nothing
00:03:25has happened.
00:03:26So, everything can be saved?
00:03:29Thank God.
00:03:30Not quite.
00:03:32The virus is still in our system, so it simply begins to corrupt the game exactly as before.
00:03:38Everything begins to disintegrate again, and again, and again.
00:03:42Our world in here is stuck in a perpetual time warp.
00:03:46We are all living one endless day.
00:03:49How long have we all been stuck in here for?
00:03:52Weeks?
00:03:53Months?
00:03:54Years?
00:03:55Decades?
00:03:56I don't know!
00:03:58Just before the game shuts down, it sends me one final error report.
00:04:02But I'm only programmed to keep the last 365 days on my records.
00:04:06It could be a year and a day.
00:04:08It could be three million years.
00:04:10I just don't know.
00:04:12Lisa?
00:04:13Tommy, my parents, they could all be dead.
00:04:17They could be long gone.
00:04:20They could be waiting for you.
00:04:21This can't be happening.
00:04:24It already has happened, Richard.
00:04:37We're going to miss the five, two, three.
00:04:52And then let's move on here.
00:05:19my wife never wanted me here
00:05:29she knew the risks
00:05:31but I didn't listen
00:05:33I know
00:05:34so we have this exact conversation every day
00:05:37every single day
00:05:39what if someone solved the case before the game rebooted
00:05:42then that person would be exported from the game
00:05:44and back to the real world
00:05:45all the detectives are investigating the same case right
00:05:48correct
00:05:48then why don't we get everyone together
00:05:50all our resources
00:05:51there are hardly any left
00:05:53Stephen Williams isn't the only one who's been wiped
00:05:55well get all the detectives that are left
00:05:57it's not in the rules
00:05:58for f*** sake
00:05:59we're all inside a computer program richard and the programming can't be changed
00:06:11can't you do something
00:06:13anything I was designed so that no one can cheat of me richard you come up with this idea every day
00:06:20what if I team up with one other detective someone to replace Steve who else is left
00:06:27it's forbidden for me to tell you that but if you were to find that person yourself
00:06:36there's nothing to stop you forming an alliance with them
00:06:43then that's what I'll do
00:06:45do I always do the exact same thing you never give up you always think there's a chance
00:06:54but even if you do solve this murder you could be trapped here when the game reboots
00:07:00or you may die nothing's better than this
00:07:02I can tell you that Sherlock is still operating you will need his help to have any chance
00:07:08I can tell you that Sherlock is still operating you will need his help to have any chance
00:07:38Hi dad
00:07:44Hi Rich
00:07:46Hope the case is going well
00:07:48Everyone here misses you
00:07:50Bye dad
00:07:54I'll let you get back to your case
00:07:58Bye, Dad
00:07:59I'll let you get back to your case
00:08:01AVAILABLE NOW
00:08:31AVAILABLE NOW
00:09:01AVAILABLE NOW
00:09:31AVAILABLE NOW
00:09:35This is Cynthia Green, fiancé of the deceased, and William Connor, his lawyer.
00:09:41Both were dinner guests tonight.
00:09:43I'll go over the statements. You're looking on the crime scene.
00:09:45Right.
00:09:47He was strangled from behind.
00:10:11The body has then fallen forward.
00:10:14The shirt and tie have been removed because we noticed something on his back.
00:10:19What have you got so far, Doctor?
00:10:21Ligature strangulation.
00:10:22Death would have taken about one to two minutes.
00:10:25There's bruising and abrasions around the neck area from the victim's nails.
00:10:30There'll be a full autopsy report for you in the morning.
00:10:37We've been over this whole room.
00:10:39No prints anywhere.
00:10:40Death must have been around 6.15.
00:10:46Or 6.16.
00:10:47That's new.
00:10:58Lots of photos of Julia.
00:11:00Daddy's little princess, eh?
00:11:01Looks like his whole life was just his work and his daughter.
00:11:04How did the killer get in?
00:11:06Not the windows.
00:11:07They're completely sealed.
00:11:09It's a ten-story drop.
00:11:11So unless our guy's Spider-Man...
00:11:12There's no way this was an escape route.
00:11:13The only way in or out was that door.
00:11:15But that door was in view of the guests the whole time.
00:11:17So they all say.
00:11:33What have you got there?
00:11:42Looks like a piece of a document.
00:11:44See what the boys can make of that.
00:11:57Repeating our top story this morning.
00:12:00Prominent local businessman Martin Donovan has been murdered.
00:12:04He was found strangled in his apartment early yesterday evening...
00:12:07...during a dinner party with friends and family.
00:12:10Mr Donovan was the founder of the financial investment company Donovan Enterprises...
00:12:15...and was also involved in the wine and food industries.
00:12:19His daughter and sister are the local fashion designers Julia and Samantha Donovan.
00:12:23Samantha had this to say last night.
00:12:25This is a terrible tragedy.
00:12:28For the family and for the city.
00:12:30Martin was a wonderful and caring brother, father...
00:12:33...husband, employer...
00:12:35...and endorsed many fine causes throughout the community...
00:12:38...and supported them generously.

00:13:24I don't know.
00:13:54Good morning.
00:13:58Good morning.
00:14:16Good morning.
00:14:19Yes?
00:14:20Detective Richard Manning.
00:14:22I'm sorry for your loss.
00:14:25Dad and I used to play together here a lot.
00:14:28I just need to confirm a few things in your statement.
00:14:30I've already been through that.
00:14:32You were one of the last people to see your father.
00:14:35Yes.
00:14:36Who was in the room with you?
00:14:37Dad's fiance, Cynthia.
00:14:40Aunt Samantha and William Connor.
00:14:42He's Dad's lawyer.
00:14:43And who else was in the apartment?
00:14:45Angela, the housekeeper.
00:14:46She was in the kitchen then.
00:14:48And David was in the hallway.
00:14:50David?
00:14:50David Mitchell, CEO of Dad's company.
00:14:54You must know all of this.
00:14:56Just being thorough.
00:14:58Can you tell me exactly what happened once your father came into the living room?
00:15:01I was sitting on the couch.
00:15:04I played tennis today.
00:15:06I haven't played for ages.
00:15:07How was it?
00:15:08It was exhausting, actually.
00:15:11I'll play with my colleague, Glenn.
00:15:12He's very good.
00:15:13What about you?
00:15:14Do you play tennis?
00:15:15Excuse me.
00:15:16Julia, darling, would you like to come and help me set up for dinner?
00:15:18I'll have to give you a game on the court soon.
00:15:23Mm-hmm.
00:15:24Well, be prepared to lose.
00:15:26Oh, I wouldn't be so sure about that.
00:15:28I think we're going to have a lot of hours.
00:15:29Just let me write for me, yeah.
00:15:31It is one of a club.
00:15:32Yeah.
00:15:33Julia, why don't you go to your father and tell him that dinner is ready?
00:15:37I will.
00:15:38Here I go.
00:15:42Dad, dinner's ready.
00:15:45Dad?
00:15:45Dad, then we found him.
00:15:50There's only one door leading into the study from the hallway.
00:15:53Correct.
00:15:55And this door was in view the whole time your father was in there?
00:15:58Yes.
00:16:00And yet someone got into that room, killed him, and then got out again, completely unseen.
00:16:05I know, it doesn't make any sense.
00:16:07No, it doesn't.
00:16:09Can you think of any reason why someone would harm your father?
00:16:11When you're successful, you make enemies, but no.
00:16:15I can't think of anyone who'd want to kill Dad.
00:16:18How close were you two?
00:16:20I'm an only child.
00:16:22Mum died in a car accident when I was six.
00:16:24Since then, it's just been the two of us.
00:16:27There was a symbol left on your father's back.
00:16:30An Arubaris.
00:16:32It's an ancient symbol, the serpent swallowing its own tail.
00:16:35What does it mean?
00:16:36Well, it can represent this cycle of life, constantly recreating itself, beginning anew as soon as it ends.
00:16:44Why did you go into his study earlier that evening?
00:16:49Well, I knew Dad was changing his will before the marriage.
00:16:53I was curious to see what the changes were.
00:16:56What time was this?
00:16:56About five.
00:17:02Besides, Dad never included me in anything.
00:17:06He supported my own dreams.
00:17:08The suit he was wearing the night he died, that was my label.
00:17:10It was my last gift to him.
00:17:13If you think of anything else.
00:17:14Good morning, Richard.
00:17:44Morning.
00:17:45Morning.
00:18:14Morning.
00:18:15Morning.
00:18:42Hi, God.
00:18:43Hey, Rich. Hope the case is going well. Everyone here misses you.
00:18:50I just wanted to say that we shouldn't have left things the way they were.
00:18:56We'll discuss things when you get back.
00:19:00Say bye to Daddy.
00:19:01Bye, Dad.
00:19:05We'll let you get back to your case.
00:19:13Just for once, I'd like to beat you in in the morning.
00:19:18This is early for you. Well done.
00:19:22God, I hate mornings.
00:19:24So do I today.
00:19:26I feel like I got a hangover.
00:19:27You had a late one too?
00:19:30No.
00:19:31How did you make that pig sign one day?
00:19:34It's a gift.
00:19:36Did you get my text last night after I interviewed the housekeeper?
00:19:39Yeah, thanks.
00:19:40I confronted Julia about it this morning.
00:19:42And?
00:19:43She said she wanted to look at the new will.
00:19:45Didn't feel comfortable just asking Daddy.
00:19:47Do you believe her?
00:19:48Well, it fits.
00:19:48She suspected the will was going to be changed.
00:19:51She was curious.
00:19:53Interviewing suspects 101.
00:19:55Everyone lies about something.
00:19:59I just can't get my head around this case, Rich.
00:20:01Yeah, me neither.
00:20:03You're doing better than me.
00:20:05You've got nowhere.
00:20:12God, it's quiet here.
00:20:20Can't get used to it.
00:20:22It's the attraction of this place, isn't it?
00:20:24Hmm.
00:20:24Come on, mate.
00:20:26Might need a coffee.
00:20:38I talked with Sherlock last night.
00:20:41Already?
00:20:41Christ.
00:20:42Look, I'm supposed to be the senior officer here.
00:20:44And all our ideas have been your ideas.
00:20:46I'm feeling like a fifth wheel.
00:20:48We're in this together, mate.
00:20:51Was Sherlock helpful?
00:20:53No.
00:20:54He said, and I quote,
00:20:55without any concrete ideas or theories,
00:20:57he couldn't help me.
00:20:58It was a waste of time.
00:21:00I wasn't smart.
00:21:02Now I can't speak to him until the very end.
00:21:04Have you got any ideas?
00:21:05Well, look,
00:21:06the killer's definitely one of the guests.
00:21:08I mean, I've got no idea who or why.
00:21:12How the thing was done.
00:21:14Exactly.
00:21:15And the killer gets in and out like a ghost.
00:21:16We wouldn't be here if it was easy.
00:21:20So, boy Wanda,
00:21:21what have you got planned for us today?
00:21:23Why don't we split up?
00:21:24I'll interview Samantha.
00:21:25Well, she knew Martin better than anyone
00:21:26and we need to know more about him.
00:21:28And me?
00:21:29Why don't you talk to David Mitchell?
00:21:30I know his phone alibi checks out,
00:21:31but he's the only guest that was alone for any time.
00:21:38See you at 12.
00:21:52I never expected a chance this early.
00:21:55You know,
00:21:55to be the youngest ever chosen,
00:21:57it's a great opportunity.
00:22:01Mm-hmm.
00:22:02Great.
00:22:03And if I solve this case,
00:22:04it means a promotion.
00:22:05We can move out of that shoebox apartment.
00:22:08I'm doing this for us.
00:22:09No, you're doing this for yourself.
00:22:12We barely see you as it is.
00:22:14And now we're volunteering for this.
00:22:16I just have a really bad feeling about this.
00:22:18They're using you like guinea pigs.
00:22:20It's just wrong.
00:22:23It's the only way to get promoted.
00:22:26This is something I have to do.
00:22:27Lisa.
00:22:40Lisa.
00:22:42Come on.
00:22:43I know you think you're doing the right thing,
00:22:46but I don't.
00:22:48Can you please just listen to me just this once?
00:22:50Don't do this.
00:22:52Don't do this.
00:22:53Don't do this.
00:22:54Don't do this.
00:22:55Don't do this.
00:22:56Don't do this.
00:22:57Don't do this.
00:22:57Don't do this.
00:22:58Don't do this.
00:22:58Don't do this.
00:22:59Don't do this.
00:22:59Don't do this.
00:23:00Don't do this.
00:23:00Don't do this.
00:23:01Don't do this.
00:23:02Don't do this.
00:23:03Don't do this.
00:23:04Don't do this.
00:23:05Don't do this.
00:23:06Don't do this.
00:23:08Don't do this.
00:23:09Don't do this.
00:23:10Don't do this.
00:23:11Don't do this.
00:23:12Don't do this.
00:23:13Don't do this.
00:23:14Don't do this.
00:23:15Don't do this.
00:23:16Don't do this.
00:23:17Don't do this.
00:23:18Don't do this.
00:23:19Hello again.
00:23:20Hello.
00:23:21You're always ahead of me.
00:23:23Face going well?
00:23:24You know we can't discuss that.
00:23:27Still early days.
00:23:29Plenty of time to catch up.
00:23:32What I need to do is I'm going to go to the bathroom.
00:23:37I'm going to go to the bathroom.
00:23:40I'm going to go to the bathroom.
00:23:43I'm going to go to the bathroom.
00:23:45I'm going to go to the bathroom.
00:23:48What I need to know is what kind of a man Martin really was.
00:23:52Martin was unique.
00:23:54He was 12 years older than me and the only family I ever had.
00:23:58You were near the door when he entered the study?
00:24:01Yes, he came over to me.
00:24:14I've just got a little bit of work to finish off.
00:24:16But let me know when dinner's ready.
00:24:17Sure.
00:24:18I'm starving.
00:24:23Excuse me.
00:24:24Julia, darling, would you like to come and help me set up for dinner?
00:24:27You two are very close.
00:24:29Very.
00:24:30She's more than just my niece.
00:24:32Her mother died in a car accident when she was young and, well, I've been there for her ever since.
00:24:37After the accident, your brother stopped trading.
00:24:49He sold most of his investments.
00:24:51They'd been out for dinner.
00:24:52He went back to the office and Adrian was driving back with Julia.
00:24:56It was a wet night.
00:24:57She lost control and crashed.
00:24:59How was Martin's relationship with Julia after that?
00:25:01No chance has ever been more loved or more protected.
00:25:04What do you think of Cynthia?
00:25:06They'd been engaged for a year.
00:25:07She's a very smart woman.
00:25:09She must be devastated all her hard work's gone for nothing.
00:25:12You believe that she was only marrying your brother for his money?
00:25:15No, of course not.
00:25:16But you wouldn't consider her a suspect?
00:25:17Look, I don't consider anyone a suspect.
00:25:19We're all each other's alibis.
00:25:21It had to be an outsider.
00:25:24Excuse me.
00:25:42Good afternoon.
00:25:55Hi.
00:25:56Uh, table for two.
00:25:58Sure.
00:25:59Follow me.
00:26:00Pretty quiet in here.
00:26:13Is it?
00:26:22So, what's so urgent?
00:26:23I thought you'd be out celebrating.
00:26:25Look, I can't do it.
00:26:27You're the youngest ever officer to get this opportunity.
00:26:30Yeah, I know.
00:26:31But?
00:26:32Would you do it?
00:26:37What was your main aim, your only aim, when you joined this place?
00:26:42To make detective.
00:26:44And here's your chance.
00:26:45Years before most people get an opportunity.
00:26:48You want to throw that away?
00:26:49Stay on the same crappy wage?
00:26:51Support your family on that forever?
00:26:53Lisa's begging me not to do it.
00:26:54Oh, she's been melodramatic.
00:26:56She's scared.
00:26:59That hacker's death sparked a lot of anger out there.
00:27:02We could have hung you out to dry.
00:27:04And if you don't take this chance now,
00:27:06do you think you'll get another one?
00:27:08Some very senior people gave you this chance.
00:27:11I wouldn't want to piss them off.
00:27:16They say it's really beautiful there.
00:27:18The air's pure.
00:27:20It's space.
00:27:21Steve's grateful for this second chance.
00:27:23He signed on this morning.
00:27:25Oh, Jeff.
00:27:26It's face.
00:27:27I am sorry.
00:27:28It's in amir with Chamberlain,
00:27:50Hello?
00:28:20Have you seen Steve?
00:28:32Who?
00:28:33Stephen Williams, where is he?
00:28:59I can find no record of a Stephen Williams, are you sure he works in this building?
00:29:03Of course he does.
00:29:07He's my partner on the Donovan case.
00:29:10There is no record of anyone working with you.
00:29:12It's ridiculous, he was here this morning.
00:29:15You must be mistaken Richard.
00:29:17No, you're mistaken, Steve's a police officer, a detective, you can't just lose someone
00:29:22I mean.
00:29:23I'm sorry Richard, there is no Stephen Williams in our records.
00:29:29I want to speak with Help Desk.
00:29:37Help Desk can only be activated in an emergency.
00:29:39Let me speak with Help Desk, right now.
00:29:43Help Desk has been activated, please wait.
00:29:56Help Desk is ready.
00:29:57Please go to your office.
00:30:03Help Desk has been activated in a city.
00:30:06Tell me in a little bit.
00:30:07Help Desk is ready for a check.
00:30:11Sooners, the police have been activated in a city.
00:30:20I'm not sure what you're doing.
00:30:25Thank God. You're still here.
00:30:28Do you know what's going on?
00:30:30I don't know.
00:30:31Look, surely you must have noticed how weird things are today.
00:30:36Who are you waiting for?
00:30:38I don't know.
00:30:39I don't know.
00:30:40I'm sorry.
00:30:41I'm sorry.
00:30:42I don't know.
00:30:43I'm sorry.
00:30:44I'm sorry.
00:30:45I don't know.
00:30:46I'm sorry.
00:30:47I'm sorry.
00:30:48Who are you waiting for?
00:30:50My partner.
00:30:51She's not going to turn up.
00:30:53What do you mean?
00:30:54Look, you'll never believe me.
00:30:55I'll explain in the car we-
00:30:56I'm not going anywhere.
00:30:57I don't know who you really are.
00:30:58You need to talk to help desk.
00:30:59Help desk?
00:31:00I don't have time to explain.
00:31:01I'm going to see David Mitchell.
00:31:02I'll be at the vineyard.
00:31:03We need to work together.
00:31:04Trust me.
00:31:18And listen to the song,
00:31:23follow me on top.
00:31:29And then that's what you want to do.
00:31:33The song,
00:31:34whatever you want to do.
00:31:36The song,
00:31:38the song is linked to the song.
00:31:41The song is linked with a song.
00:31:45I need to be there for the meetings with the initial on this.
00:32:11Yes.
00:32:12Yes, of course.
00:32:13And here I am stuck in a vineyard because...
00:32:15I think that's not my problem.
00:32:18Forget it.
00:32:19I'll do it myself.
00:32:21Can I help you?
00:32:22I'm investigating the Donovan case.
00:32:24I've got a few questions.
00:32:26Be as quick as you can.
00:32:28As I'm sure you can appreciate, there's a lot for me to do now Martin's gone.
00:32:31Was this one of Martin's investments?
00:32:33This was just a hobby.
00:32:37A status symbol.
00:32:39Martin didn't even drink.
00:32:41I oversaw this place and all his other investments.
00:32:44Now that evening you spoke with Martin in the hallway before he came into the living room.
00:32:48Yes, I'd taken a call there.
00:32:50Martin must have come out of his bedroom.
00:32:53He was wearing that new suit Julia had made him.
00:32:55What did you talk about?
00:32:56He was unhappy with our last quarterly result.
00:33:01We lost over five million.
00:33:03Martin wanted somebody's head.
00:33:05I don't care if there's no one to blame.
00:33:07We can't have a loss like this and do nothing.
00:33:09It makes us look weak.
00:33:10Someone has to carry the can.
00:33:12Okay.
00:33:13Who should I fire?
00:33:14It's your problem.
00:33:15Make an executive decision for once.
00:33:17Open up.
00:33:32Yeah, g'day.
00:33:33It looks like we're going to have to cancel my appointments for tomorrow.
00:33:36And this call lasted from 6.15 to 6.19.
00:33:38Phone records on your PA confirmed this.
00:33:40Yes.
00:33:41And then I joined the others in the living room.
00:33:43Soon after that we found Martin.
00:33:47That must have been a shock.
00:33:48Still can't believe it.
00:33:50Who do you think did it?
00:33:51An intruder, obviously.
00:33:52Not one of the guests.
00:33:53Impossible.
00:33:54We were all together the whole time.
00:33:56Except you.
00:33:58Except me.
00:33:59But tell me this.
00:34:01How did I walk past several witnesses,
00:34:03strangle Martin,
00:34:04walk out past the same witnesses,
00:34:06all while still on the phone?
00:34:09So what happens to the company now?
00:34:11Does Julia inherit everything?
00:34:12She's meeting with the lawyers this afternoon,
00:34:14but I'm expecting her to take ownership.
00:34:16And how will that affect you?
00:34:18Well, Julia knows nothing about this company.
00:34:20She's only interested in clothes,
00:34:22so I'm assuming she'll take her hands off a pro.
00:34:25Which will mean more work for me.
00:34:27And a lot more power for you.
00:34:30I think we're done here.
00:34:42I can't stop thinking about my family.
00:34:58My son has just turned three.
00:35:01He had just turned three.
00:35:04What about you?
00:35:05No, kids.
00:35:08But the thought of not seeing my parents or my sister again?
00:35:12Look, I know it's tough,
00:35:13but we've got to stay focused.
00:35:14It's our only chance.
00:35:15Help Desk doesn't give us any chance.
00:35:17We're both still here.
00:35:20That means we know a lot more than the others.
00:35:22So who's your prime suspect?
00:35:31David Mitchell.
00:35:33He's the only guest unobserved for several minutes.
00:35:35Now Martin's gone,
00:35:36he'll probably control the company.
00:35:38But David was on his phone then.
00:35:40How did he strangle Martin at the same time
00:35:42and get in and out of the study?
00:35:43His elbow's solid as a rock,
00:35:45but something's not right about it.
00:35:47What about you?
00:35:49Who's your pick?
00:35:50Julia.
00:35:51Maybe she found his new will,
00:35:53saw how much Cynthia was getting,
00:35:55so then destroyed it
00:35:56and made sure Martin wouldn't write a new one.
00:35:59What about the others?
00:36:00Angela, the housekeeper.
00:36:02Like David,
00:36:03was also unobserved for several minutes.
00:36:05Then there's Cynthia.
00:36:06She has the least motive.
00:36:07Why would she kill Martin before they've married
00:36:09and she's not even in the will?
00:36:11Maybe Martin was going to end the relationship,
00:36:13so she took revenge?
00:36:15But that seems unlikely.
00:36:17Everyone says he was besotted with her.
00:36:18Or William and Cynthia could be in on it together.
00:36:21Maybe he wanted her for himself.
00:36:23If she's short of money,
00:36:24he might think he has a chance with her now.
00:36:25And as Martin's lawyer,
00:36:27he could have easily siphoned off money over the years.
00:36:29They both stayed in the living room the whole time.
00:36:31So did Samantha.
00:36:33And I can't see an alliance of those three.
00:36:35Could Samantha be the killer?
00:36:37Maybe she's always hated living in her brother's shadow
00:36:39and she'll certainly benefit from his death.
00:36:42But how could she,
00:36:43or any of them,
00:36:44get in and out of that study?
00:36:45It's so hard to concentrate.
00:36:48I'm so tired.
00:36:51We're wasting time.
00:36:52We need more information.
00:36:55I'll talk to William.
00:36:59He's seeing Julia about the will.
00:37:01It should give us some clues to motive.
00:37:03Good idea.
00:37:04I'll talk to our dark horse, Angela.
00:37:05So you're married, with a child.
00:37:11Why risk it all coming in here?
00:37:13There was a case Stephen and I were working on.
00:37:16A hacker got caught trying to break into our server.
00:37:19We suspected he was a small part of something much larger.
00:37:22So we began an interrogation to see if he was working with anyone else.
00:37:25And was he?
00:37:26We never found out.
00:37:28He killed himself on my watch.
00:37:31A suicide ring was hidden in the evidence.
00:37:33They could have thrown me out for negligence.
00:37:35Steve too.
00:37:36He was the senior officer.
00:37:37Instead they offered us this.
00:37:39A second chance.
00:37:40They had something on you too.
00:37:43What do you mean?
00:37:44I suppressed a piece of evidence on a case.
00:37:49Child molester.
00:37:50We knew we had the right guy.
00:37:52They found me out.
00:37:52And given the same choice as me.
00:37:54Maybe every cop in here has got a black mark against their name.
00:37:58We're all expendable.
00:37:59Now my family's alone out there.
00:38:02Look.
00:38:03Let's just stay with the case, okay?
00:38:06There's one part I just don't understand.
00:38:07This Aruba is...
00:38:10It just seems so abstract.
00:38:12But it has to mean something.
00:38:19Good luck.
00:38:20I'll pick you up in an hour.
00:38:37Just in time for the will.
00:38:49Is everyone here for it?
00:38:51I assume so.
00:39:02How's the investigation going?
00:39:04Slowly.
00:39:05Why is that?
00:39:08Well, because no one's really being that honest with me.
00:39:11Does that really surprise you?
00:39:17Julia.
00:39:19Please.
00:39:20Have a seat.
00:39:25Does he need to be here?
00:39:27Of course he needs to be here.
00:39:28He's trying to find Martin's killer.
00:39:30I'll get right to it.
00:39:34This is Martin Donovan's last will and testament.
00:39:38It was signed in this room on February the 4th last year.
00:39:42February last year?
00:39:44He hasn't made another one since?
00:39:46No.
00:39:47As you all know, Martin Donovan was an extremely wealthy man.
00:39:50The beneficiaries are as follows.
00:39:52To Martin's sister, Samantha Donovan, a lump sum of $14 million.
00:40:00Everything else, including all of Martin's share, cash and property portfolios,
00:40:05he leaves to his daughter, Julia.
00:40:07He's left me everything.
00:40:10This is ridiculous.
00:40:12He promised me I'd be looked after.
00:40:14He barely knew you last February.
00:40:20I'm not mentioned at all.
00:40:22Not once.
00:40:23This is not over.
00:40:40There's not much else to say.
00:40:42Julia, there'll be a lot of documents for you to sign in the coming days,
00:40:45and I'll make the arrangements for that.
00:40:47Thank you, William.
00:40:49We'll see you at the wake this evening?
00:40:50Of course.
00:40:52Congratulations.
00:40:52You and I have a lot to talk about now.
00:41:04There's a wake tonight?
00:41:05In Martin's honour.
00:41:07Ironic, really.
00:41:09He never set foot in a church all the time I knew him.
00:41:11You are Martin's oldest friend.
00:41:12You don't feel hard done by in the will?
00:41:14Martin's will does make one other stipulation.
00:41:17That I remain as executor and Julia's legal advisor for the next three years.
00:41:21For which you'll claim a salary?
00:41:23A modest one.
00:41:24Was Martin planning on making a new will?
00:41:26He was.
00:41:27What was in it?
00:41:28Martin didn't confide things in advance to anyone.
00:41:31Even me.
00:41:32Maybe he'd guessed your feelings for Cynthia.
00:41:35What do you mean?
00:41:35How long have you two been seeing each other?
00:41:39A couple of months.
00:41:40It wasn't serious.
00:41:42And Martin didn't know?
00:41:43We were the least of his worries.
00:41:44Like what?
00:41:46I've said as much as I'm prepared to.
00:41:49Look, I don't have time for this.
00:41:50What was Martin worried about?
00:41:51Let me go.
00:41:52You're hurting me.
00:41:53Ah, what the?
00:42:02If you can't tell me what Martin was planning, then I'll know you're lying about him and that
00:42:06means you're the killer.
00:42:06No, you've got it all wrong.
00:42:08Tell me who Martin was worried about.
00:42:09You wouldn't believe me.
00:42:11That's for me to decide.
00:42:12I was beginning to think I'd lost you.
00:42:25Not yet.
00:42:33How do you feel?
00:42:34Curable.
00:42:35But at least I'm still here.
00:42:37How did you get on with Angela?
00:42:38I don't think the housekeeper's involved.
00:42:40No opportunity.
00:42:41How did you get on?
00:42:44Better.
00:42:45I had to bend a few rules, but I'm pretty sure I know who did it.
00:42:48Just not how it was done.
00:42:51I still need some answers.
00:42:52From who?
00:42:55A killer.
00:43:08He should be home by now.
00:43:09Look, Richard, I'm really struggling.
00:43:12I don't know if I can...
00:43:13Hey, hey, hey.
00:43:13Hang in there.
00:43:15We're near the end, okay?
00:43:17I promise.
00:43:17I'll check the house.
00:43:30Hello?
00:43:35David?
00:43:36I'll check the house.
00:43:44I'll check my house.
00:44:06You okay?
00:44:36The game's already shutting itself down.
00:44:49Things have disappeared inside as well.
00:44:51We've got to access Sherlock.
00:44:54We need some new theory or he won't help us.
00:44:57Maybe...
00:44:58Hi.
00:44:59Maybe.
00:45:00You're getting stronger again, aren't you?
00:45:05Well, you must have some new theory.
00:45:09I just thought of something.
00:45:11What?
00:45:12Let's go.
00:45:14Let's go.
00:45:21Let's go.
00:45:22Let's go.
00:45:23Let's go.
00:45:24Let's go.
00:45:25Let's go.
00:45:26Let's go.
00:45:27Let's go.
00:45:28Let's go.
00:45:29Let's go.
00:45:33Good evening, Richard.
00:45:36Access Sherlock.
00:45:37Sherlock can only be accessed once.
00:45:39Are you sure you wish to?
00:45:41Access Sherlock!
00:45:43Let's go.
00:45:44Thank you, Richard.
00:45:46Sherlock is ready.
00:45:50It's okay.
00:45:51You're gone.
00:45:52It's okay.
00:45:53You're gone.
00:45:57It's okay.
00:46:09It's okay.
00:46:10You're gone.
00:46:12It's okay.
00:46:13It's okay.
00:46:14A lovely piece, don't you think?
00:46:29The opening of Monteverdi's Orfeo,
00:46:33the earliest opera on record,
00:46:35dated 1607.
00:46:38And it's a great story, too.
00:46:40The legend of Orpheus's journey to the underworld.
00:46:43His wife, Eurydice, dies of a snakebite
00:46:47the day after their wedding.
00:46:49Stricken with grief,
00:46:50Orpheus makes the perilous journey down to the underworld
00:46:53to bring her back.
00:46:54After much suffering and sacrifice, he fails.
00:46:59So he goes to his father, the god Apollo,
00:47:01and asks for his help.
00:47:04Apollo tells him that he'll be able to see
00:47:07his wife's image in the star.
00:47:09But he'll never be with her again.
00:47:11You know your classics.
00:47:14Excellent.
00:47:17You should have left her behind.
00:47:25We're solving this together.
00:47:26Honorable but foolish.
00:47:28She's doomed.
00:47:30You need to think of yourself.
00:47:31We're getting out of this together.
00:47:32Who are they?
00:47:36Some people to help us if need be.
00:47:38Normally we'd have a larger crowd,
00:47:40but as Help Desk told you,
00:47:42we're not running at full capacity today.
00:47:45Help Desk told me a lot today.
00:47:47What's really going on here?
00:47:52What do you think is going on?
00:47:56I know that I'm real, but apart from that...
00:47:58How do you know that?
00:47:59What an arrogant assumption.
00:48:01Back in the real world, you are real.
00:48:04In here, all bets are off.
00:48:07We're both in a game we can't control.
00:48:11However, I have the advantage of knowing I can never be real.
00:48:14You do not.
00:48:19So what do I do?
00:48:22Your only chance is to play the game and win.
00:48:24Just play the game, Richard.
00:48:31I'm so glad you have an artistic side to you.
00:48:35It's such a vital part of one's soul.
00:48:38And one's profession.
00:48:39Especially if that profession is the detection of crime.
00:48:43We need your help with this case.
00:48:46Of course you do.
00:48:47You've just discovered David Mitchell's body.
00:48:50And he was your chief suspect.
00:48:53Yes.
00:48:54A second murder either complicates matters or clarifies them.
00:48:59Which is it?
00:49:02Clarifies.
00:49:03I know who killed Martin Donovan.
00:49:06But not how it was done.
00:49:09There is one infallible method of detecting crime, Richard.
00:49:14A psychology of human nature.
00:49:17Every human act, large or small,
00:49:20is the direct expression of one's personality.
00:49:22Just as an expert can analyze a piece of music,
00:49:26so can a great criminologist analyze a crime
00:49:30and tell you who committed it
00:49:33and for your sake,
00:49:34how it was committed.
00:49:35First,
00:49:38let us look at the method of the crime.
00:49:43Would you agree that our friend here
00:49:44is the same body type as the victim?
00:49:47Yes.
00:49:48Strangulation is a very intimate form of killing.
00:49:51The murderer came up from behind.
00:49:53What are you doing?
00:49:54I'm helping you, Richard.
00:49:56I'm standing behind him.
00:49:57What else?
00:49:57You're not used a great deal of upper body strength.
00:50:00Physically, the killer could be anyone.
00:50:01Correct.
00:50:04These points should help you
00:50:05when you make your final accusation.
00:50:07What about how the crime was committed?
00:50:09The murder of Martin Donovan
00:50:11is a work of art.
00:50:13It is, from any standard viewpoint,
00:50:16an impossible crime.
00:50:18Which implies what?
00:50:22I need a different viewpoint.
00:50:24Tell me, Richard.
00:50:25Have you read Watson's stories about me?
00:50:28Yes, when I was young.
00:50:30What was my famous motto,
00:50:32the one I use to solve many crimes?
00:50:36Come on!
00:50:37Come on!
00:50:39Once you have eliminated
00:50:40all other possibilities,
00:50:43whatever remains must be the truth.
00:50:47Well, not my exact words,
00:50:49but close enough.
00:50:51And yet you have failed to apply this
00:50:53to your own case.
00:50:56Ten seconds after Martin entered his study,
00:50:58there's no way the killer could have escaped.
00:51:03They all swore blind
00:51:05they saw someone enter the study.
00:51:06someone.
00:51:14But that means...
00:51:15Yes.
00:51:20You're welcome.
00:51:23And take my other advice
00:51:24and leave her.
00:51:26You can't win this game together.
00:51:28You know that.
00:51:29He's right.
00:51:32We're getting out of this together.
00:51:34No.
00:51:34It's over for me.
00:51:41Sherlock!
00:51:42You have to assist me too.
00:51:45I demand to speak to you alone.
00:51:47What are you doing?
00:51:49I don't want him here.
00:51:55Get out of this nightmare
00:51:56for all of us.
00:52:01Gentlemen.
00:52:01Gentlemen.
00:52:04It's going to be a lovely evening.
00:52:25It's going to be a lovely evening.
00:52:34Do you have plans?
00:52:43I'm ready to submit my final report.
00:52:45If you're wrong in any way,
00:52:47you lose all your points.
00:52:48I understand that.
00:52:52I'm ready.
00:52:52Very well.
00:52:54You'll need to address your suspects.
00:52:56Please go to them.
00:52:56I know where they are.
00:52:57I know where they are.
00:52:57I know where they are.
00:53:17I know where they are.
00:53:18In Eastville, oh yeah!
00:53:20Oh yeah!
00:53:24Oh
00:53:45Oh
00:53:54Where are they?
00:54:24I have to be here. It's the wake tonight. I've solved the case! Am I supposed to pray? Beg for forgiveness? What's going on? The virus? The Arubarus. It's the only piece that doesn't fit. The symbol of eternity.
00:54:54Repeating over and over. Does it have any relevance to your father? Nothing. It's their signature. The hackers. Got no rights and they can hold you forever. Who are you protecting?
00:55:24I, Richard Manning, officially submit in my report that the Arubarus is your signature. You created this virus to punish us. To put us under pressure, under exhaustion, under misery. You want to treat us all like rats in a maze. Damn you!
00:55:43I have to get back to my family. They're not your enemy. I'm not your enemy. Now let me finish this. Then I'm going home.
00:55:59Who are you talking to?
00:56:11Good evening. It's been one hell of a day.
00:56:15Look, this is hardly the time. I know who killed your brother. I know how and why it was done. That person also killed David Mitchell this afternoon.
00:56:25Who is it?
00:56:26First, I need to tell you how I came to my conclusions. The key has never been whodunit, but how it was done.
00:56:33And why? Why did the killer wipe the whole room clear of fingerprints?
00:56:39It's as if the killer wanted to highlight that they'd been in the room for some time.
00:56:44Why?
00:56:46Once you've eliminated all other possibilities, whatever remains must be the truth.
00:56:52Let's apply that rule to this case.
00:56:54Martin Donovan entered the study at 6.14pm. Julia, you and Samantha went into the dining room about ten seconds after that, correct?
00:57:03Yes, no more than that.
00:57:05So, applying our rule, that's the only time our killer could have escaped.
00:57:10But that's impossible. It took longer than that just to kill Martin.
00:57:13Unless that Martin Donovan was already dead. And the man you saw entering the study was not Martin.
00:57:20This is crazy!
00:57:21Are you saying we're all lying?
00:57:23Not all of you.
00:57:25Let's review the facts. Martin spoke with David in the hallway. He then entered the living room, spoke briefly with Samantha, then went into his study.
00:57:34Julia, William, Cynthia, did any of you actually speak with Martin?
00:57:39No, but I saw him.
00:57:40I did too.
00:57:42Me too.
00:57:43What you saw was a man of Martin's size and build, wearing the same glasses and identical suit. The lights were low.
00:57:50You were across the other side of the room, focused on other things. And why shouldn't it be Martin? Who else could it be?
00:57:58If my theory is correct, it means that David was lying when he said he spoke with Martin in the hallway.
00:58:04It also means that someone else is lying. The person that planned this entire thing.
00:58:09You waited until Martin entered the study. Then you went in there.
00:58:24What do you want, Samantha?
00:58:37Samantha?
00:58:38I was listening to him.
00:58:47Oh, oh!
00:58:51Oh, oh!
00:58:53Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
00:58:54Oh, oh!
00:58:55Oh, oh, oh!
00:58:57Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
00:59:00Oh, oh, oh!
00:59:02It's time.
00:59:32It's time.
01:00:02It's time.
01:00:03Wish me luck.
01:00:17Excuse me.
01:00:20I'm going to go to a club.
01:00:33Yeah.
01:00:34I'm going to have a chair.
01:00:38So that's how you killed your brother.
01:00:42Ingenious, but very risky.
01:00:44I like taking risks.
01:00:46Initially I thought David and Julia could be involved, but it was obvious from the way he talked about her that he didn't have any respect for her.
01:00:52Well, William confessed to me that he'd seen you two together.
01:00:57I offered him the two things he's always wanted.
01:01:01Company.
01:01:03And me.
01:01:04But you had no intention of him having either.
01:01:07This afternoon, after the will reading, you both went back to his place to celebrate, he thought.
01:01:13Instead, you slit his throat.
01:01:15What proof do you have?
01:01:17David was foolish.
01:01:18He kept the duplicate you made of Martin's suit.
01:01:23It's hanging in his wardrobe.
01:01:25That doesn't link me.
01:01:27It does if your hair and fibres are found in the lining.
01:01:29Which they will be if you made it.
01:01:32Why would I want to kill my brother?
01:01:37Inheriting 40 million dollars is a good incentive.
01:01:41Martin's new will would have reduced that considerably.
01:01:43I know he wrote a new will, because I found a fragment you missed clearing up.
01:01:48But that's not the main reason.
01:01:50You've always been dependent on Martin financially, something you've always resented.
01:01:55And then he was going to marry someone who would make sure you got even less money in the future.
01:01:59You killed Martin to get your inheritance, and as revenge for the way he treated you.
01:02:04Is that it?
01:02:05He left you out in the cold.
01:02:07Your own brother.
01:02:09You felt trapped in this existence.
01:02:12You saw your chance to take everything.
01:02:14Kill Martin.
01:02:16Escape.
01:02:17But you failed.
01:02:29Congratulations, Richard.
01:02:35Congratulations, Richard.

01:03:56Is this the virus?
01:03:58Is there no end?
01:04:08Why can't I stop this?
01:04:10Can't I stop this?
