00:05It is Friday, it's 5.52pm, and it is the end of the first week with my new clients, Alistair
00:13and Margot Hartnell.
00:14They say they're coming here as the last roll of the dice for them. They had been on the cusp
00:19of getting a divorce.
00:21Walk forward. Turn right. Turn right! Turn left. No, no, wait. No, sorry. That's my right.
00:27For God's sake, Alistair! Love has been replaced by hostility. You're useless at this! That's enough!
00:35Sorry, darling. All trust has gone. For sake! Sorry. Sorry!
00:39It's okay. It's okay. Compounded by the fact that they seem unable to communicate in a meaningful and a reciprocal
00:46way.
00:46I feel unheard when I talk to you about how I'm feeling.
00:53Well, often, when you do want to talk, I've got work on my mind, and that's important, too.
01:03So it's just a case of bad timing, that's all.
01:06Their marriage doesn't make sense to them anymore.
01:09Over the course of the coming weeks, I'd like to see if we can retrace the steps that led to
01:14this situation,
01:15and see if we can work out how they got here.
01:18Next, we have Luke and Stacey Warber.
01:22I believe the fault lines don't run as deep with them.
01:25I'm grateful for how patient you are,
01:28and that you're here with me now, doing this,
01:33because I know I'm not giving you what you need.
01:36That's so sweet, babe.
01:38On the surface, they have a loving marriage,
01:41but now can we try taking each other's hands, please,
01:46and maintaining that same eye contact?
01:49By their own admission, there are significant intimacy issues.
01:52Why can't you do this?
01:56I'm sorry.
01:58I'm sorry, sorry. Could I take five?
02:00It's okay. Of course.
02:02It's okay, Luke.
02:05Take your time.
02:06I mean...
02:07It's okay.
02:08It's all part of the process.
02:11It's Friday.
02:12It's the beginning of the weekend now,
02:14but Monday will be a big day.
02:16I have exciting plans.
02:18I think that there could be a real breakthrough.
02:23Hello.
02:24Darling.
02:27Mine's good.
02:29This looks nice, doesn't it?
02:31Yeah.
02:31Hi, everyone.
02:33Hi.
02:33I just wanted to say thank you very much
02:36for all your hard work
02:37and your commitment this week.
02:39You should be very proud of yourselves.
02:42There's more for us to do next week,
02:45but for now, enjoy your evening.
02:50Right, bon appetit.
02:52Cheers, everyone.
02:53Cheers.
02:56Cheers.
03:20I just feel like every single thing I say is wrong.
03:24Every word, every utterance.
03:26She pounces on it like a wild animal.
03:29Yeah.
03:30She certainly has a way with her words, your missus.
03:36I thought you'd never ask.
03:37It's only duty-free.
03:41It's Kira's stuff.
03:43Can't still be swimming, can she?
04:04It's Kira's stuff.
05:06Crime scene.
05:09Inspector, I don't think you should wear that to the crime scene.
05:12Why not?
05:12Because it's got I Heart St. Marie on the front of it.
05:19Hmm?
05:21Still haven't gotten your clothes back then.
05:23I must have left 50 messages for Solomon.
05:26This is the only shirt he didn't take.
05:27But I've got a mate from the Met to call in a favour,
05:30and I've got him to triangulate his phone for me.
05:32Yeah, that's a very good use of their resources.
05:35Hey, listen.
05:36He stole from me, and that is a crime.
05:41Inspector, I just think you should take the hat off.
05:44Yeah, all right.
05:54Victim is Kira Mayhew.
05:5642 years old, fully qualified clinical therapist.
06:00Ran a couples retreat here.
06:02Cars of death looks like a drowning.
06:04Went for a swim at 7 o'clock yesterday evening,
06:07and at 9 o'clock,
06:08two fishermen came across a body about 100 metres out,
06:11directly opposite this spot.
06:13They watched over the body until the paramedics arrived.
06:16Who else was here last night?
06:19About six people in total.
06:20Four residents, two staff, the chef and the waitress.
06:23There's some bruising around her neck and shoulders.
06:26Looks like finger marks.
06:27Paramedics say they're recent.
06:29More likely from someone forcing her down under the water.
06:32They reckon it's murder.
06:33That's why they called us.
06:35So what?
06:36She swam out to sea,
06:38and somebody was with her and did this.
06:39Or maybe somebody was waiting for her out there on a boat.
06:43Inspector, what would you say if I told you
06:45I just found a bingo ball at the crime scene?
06:48I'd say, have you actually found a bingo ball at the crime scene?
06:51And I would say yes.
06:53Yes, I did find a bingo ball at the crime scene.
06:5613.
06:58I'm looking for some.
07:01I mean, it probably doesn't have much to do with Kira Mayhew's murder, though, right?
07:06We don't know yet.
07:07Let's bag it.
07:08Oh, OK.
07:09The bingo ball's officially evidenced now.
07:11Bag in the bingo ball.
07:13All right.
07:14Sergeant Fletcher, you talk to the staff.
07:16Officer Rose, see if there's any security cameras in the place.
07:19And DS Thomas, let's talk to the guests.
07:23Oh.
07:24Oh.
07:29I'm sorry, did you just say murder?
07:31What, I thought it was an accident.
07:32Well, it wasn't.
07:34So we need to ask you where you all were between the hours of seven and nine last night.
07:37Are you saying we're suspects?
07:39When did you last see Kira Mayhew?
07:41Before dinner, we were having some aperitifs,
07:43and she came and told us to have a nice night.
07:45Enjoy your evening.
07:49What time was that?
07:51Just before seven.
07:51She went for a swim and didn't see her again until she was, was, um...
07:57Dead.
08:00Just say it.
08:03And was that a regular thing, her going for a swim at that time?
08:07Seemed to be, like, most evenings.
08:09Kira said it was her own therapy.
08:11Getting into the sea after a long day, she found it restorative.
08:16And during the two hours between you seeing her and her body being found, you were...
08:21We were all together having dinner.
08:26Look, it wasn't one of us, okay?
08:29Nobody told us that we were going to be grilled like this.
08:31None of us have even been to bed.
08:33And I took a sleeping pill.
08:38Don't apologise for me, Alistair.
08:40You know I hate it when you do that.
08:41Sorry, dear.
08:42And don't call me dear, either.
08:44No, of course not.
08:44Sorry.
08:45For God.
08:47Okay.
08:49Well, if you think of anything, let us know.
08:55God help us.
09:02I spoke with the staff who can alibi each other for the time of the murder.
09:06They were preparing dinner between seven and nine.
09:10You think you listening?
09:11I'm listening.
09:12Just checking, sir.
09:13What did they say about the victim?
09:15Well, that she was a decent boss.
09:16Always paid them on time.
09:18Was friendly.
09:19Any idea you'd want to harm her?
09:20No.
09:21They reckon she didn't really know anyone here.
09:23Never saw her go out much.
09:24Kept herself to herself.
09:26I checked her phone.
09:28All her texts and all her emails, work-related.
09:31Apart from her mum back in England.
09:33How's she doing?
09:34Not great.
09:36We said we'd speak tomorrow when she might be a little bit calmer.
09:39I found this.
09:43Date and time is yesterday.
09:465.52 in the afternoon.
09:49That's just over an hour before her swim.
09:59It's the weekend now, but Monday will be a big day.
10:03I have exciting plans, and I think that there could be a real breakthrough.
10:12My instinct on this is that a lie is being told.
10:17If I can draw out the truth, the fallout would be truly devastating.
10:27And only a couple of hours later, she's been murdered.
10:30You're thinking one of the guests here did it?
10:33I'm thinking maybe one of them did.
10:37On one hand, all the four guests were having dinner together at the time of Kira Mayhew's murder.
10:44Oh, look.
10:45There are only two cameras in the resort.
10:47Just before 7 o'clock, Kira Mayhew goes for a swim.
10:50But on the other hand, all the guests leave the table once during the evening.
10:54So, in theory, it could have been any one of them.
10:58All right.
10:59Now, here.
11:01At 18 minutes past 7, Mr. Hartnell goes to his bedroom to get his glasses.
11:06And in here, 7.46, Stacey Wava goes to the bathroom to check her makeup.
11:12And at 8.03, Mrs. Hartnell goes to grab her shawl.
11:16And after that, at 8.30, Luke Wava goes to his bedroom to get a bottle of rum.
11:23So, each of them had opportunity to kill the victim during the dinner?
11:27Except, on the other hand, no one leaves the table for more than two to three minutes.
11:33And they all returned dry as a bone.
11:36Okay, so how did one of them manage to leave the dinner table, run down to the beach, get themselves
11:42somehow out to sea 100 meters, drown Kira Mayhew...
11:46Then come all the way back, dry off, before returning to the table in less than a few minutes.
11:54Well, that's just not possible.
12:08All right, Sebastian.
12:09I'll read the victim's notebook.
12:11You make us start listening to these tapes.
12:14Focus on the ones recorded since the four suspects arrived.
12:17Yeah.
12:18Oh, these tapes are teeny tiny.
12:21Look.
12:21They make me look like a giant.
12:23Says the giants.
12:24Hmm.
12:25So, printed the victim's schedule the day of her murder.
12:29Trust exercises in the morning.
12:31Sounds fun.
12:32Lunch, followed by one-to-one sessions in the afternoon with Stacey Warbert, then Alistair Hartnell.
12:39Inspector, I came to check in on the murder case.
12:43The minister gets nervous when one of our resorts is hit by a crime.
12:47I'd like to reassure her it's in hand.
12:51Yes, sir.
12:53We're currently working on the basis that one of the four residents did it.
12:57We just need to work out which one it was, and how they did it.
13:00And why.
13:02So, pretty much everything.
13:07You look smart, sir.
13:10Going somewhere nice?
13:11Yacht Club.
13:12Lobster night.
13:14Hmm?
13:17Lobster night, eh?
13:19That's why you're looking so snappy.
13:23You know, it's snappy.
13:26Like, claws.
13:27No, no, no.
13:27Lobster claws.
13:28I get the joke, Inspector.
13:30I just didn't find it very funny.
13:35Enjoy your evenings?
13:37You too, sir.
13:38Snappy.
13:39Like claws, you know.
13:43No, I need to get this.
13:46Hello, mate.
13:49Excuse me, Commissioner.
13:54Anton Bousset.
13:56How long has it been since we last...
13:58Crossed paths?
13:59Or were you going to say, crossed swords?
14:02I hadn't decided before you got me off.
14:07How can I help you, Mr. Bousset?
14:09Anton, please.
14:11We're going to publish an article about you, Commissioner.
14:14And I want to give you the right to respond.
14:18Here is a draft copy of the piece.
14:23Let me know when you're ready to talk.
14:30Inspector, that was your contact at the Met, wasn't it?
14:33You know where Solomon is?
14:35Palm Beach Hotel.
14:36I'm coming with you.
14:55It's something I could easily live without.
14:58But once you have your own private jet, it's hard to give that up, you know?
15:02I love it, ladies.
15:05It's a fun night, right?
15:11Solomon.
15:13Mervyn!
15:14Oh!
15:15I'm just seeing you here, man.
15:17We're just talking about you.
15:18Come, come, come, come, come, come.
15:20Meet Tashel and Tashana.
15:23This is my brother, would you believe?
15:25Murphy!
15:26We're half-brothers.
15:27Where's my stuff?
15:28You stole from me and I want my things back.
15:30I never stole anything.
15:32He gets confused sometimes.
15:34Had a bump to his head a few years back.
15:35Solomon!
15:37I'm not joking around.
15:38You get me my things now, or I arrest you.
15:41It's your choice.
15:43Okay, man.
15:44I understand.
15:46Let me just...
15:55Sir, are you okay?
15:56I'm fine.
15:57Come and get him!
15:58Come and get him!
16:22They can add assaulting a police officer to theft and breaking and entering.
16:26Mervyn!
16:26My brother, please don't do this to me.
16:29I'm sorry, all right?
16:31I just...
16:32I really needed the money.
16:34I'm in debt.
16:35And it's to the kind of person you don't much want to be in debt to.
16:41I'm sorry I let you down.
16:42I just...
16:45I didn't know what else to do.
16:47I just need my stuff back, Sol.
16:5024 hours.
16:52Otherwise, I'm pressing charges.
16:54Do you understand?
16:56Appreciate it, man.
17:12So, we dusted the bingo ball for prints, sir, like you requested, but got nothing from it.
17:18Oh, well, worth a try, eh?
17:22Right.
17:23What else we got?
17:24We've done background on both couples.
17:28The Hartnells live in Islington in London.
17:31He's a barrister.
17:32She runs a luxury interior design business.
17:35Ah, very Islington.
17:36They did a brief spell of grief counselling with another therapist shortly after their daughter died.
17:42She was only 17.
17:45Seems their marriage has been struggling ever since.
17:48What about the Warbur's?
17:50Also live in London.
17:52Luke works in finance, earns well.
17:54Has been married to Stacey for three years.
17:57I've been reading the victim's notes on both couples.
18:00She records a lot after her sessions with them, especially on the dictaphone.
18:04But it's okay.
18:06Officer Rose is working on it.
18:08Yes.
18:09Yes, I am.
18:10I am totally on top of it.
18:12So, don't you worry, Inspector.
18:15It seems the Warbur's came out here because they've been having intimacy issues.
18:21It's been 18 months since they were last intimate with each other.
18:26When you say intimate, you mean intimate.
18:29Yes.
18:30And according to the notes, the issue is entirely on Luke's side.
18:34And in one of their last sessions, Miss Mayhew got him to admit why he was like this.
18:41Go on.
18:4218 months ago, Luke was unfaithful.
18:44He had a one-night thing.
18:46Naughty, naughty boy.
18:48Mm-hmm.
18:49With him wife's sister.
18:51Cha-cha.
18:52Oh, sorry, what?
18:54Mm-hmm.
18:55And ever since, he's been wrapped with guilt and shame.
18:57Why?
18:58He's been a busy, busy man.
19:00I mean, that explains why he can't do the business.
19:03Mm-hmm.
19:04Now, Kira told him that he needs to confront it, that he can't ignore it anymore.
19:12She was suggesting he tell Stacey.
19:14I think she knew their marriage couldn't move forward based on a betrayal like that.
19:19Is that what Kira Mayhew was referring to when she said...
19:23My instinct on this is that a lie is being told.
19:27So, Luke killed her to silence her?
19:31Stop the truth coming out?
20:02It's a cliche, isn't it?
20:03It was like I was proving myself that I've still got it too, you know?
20:07But something in you must have wanted to come clean.
20:09Because you admitted it to Kira Mayhew.
20:12I thought she'd help.
20:13In what way?
20:14Absolve me of the guilt if I opened up.
20:17I think that's a priest you're after.
20:20But all she said was that the marriage couldn't survive if it was built on a betrayal like that.
20:26She was normally so calm and measured, but with that, it really bothered her.
20:32Like she wasn't going to let it go.
20:35And that's what worried you.
20:37Panicked you that she would tell Stacey herself.
20:40And then you'd lose your gorgeous wife completely.
20:42But you weren't going to let that happen.
20:44And that is why you murdered Kira Mayhew.
20:46No.
20:47No.
20:48That's why I've come to you.
20:49Because I know what it looks like.
20:52But it wasn't me who killed her.
20:55I swear to you.
20:58All right.
21:01That's all for now.
21:16What a moron.
21:18Sir?
21:22Inspector.
21:24Post-mortem's in.
21:26Confirms what we thought.
21:28Water in the victim's lungs confirms she died due to droning.
21:32Finger marks on her shoulders and neck suggest she was forced under the water.
21:38But how did the killer manage to do it?
21:39To leave from the dinner table here, run down to the beach, drown Kira, then get back to the dinner
21:47table, seemingly with not a spot of water on them?
21:49And in just a few minutes.
21:52And how does this figure into all of this?
21:54Why was it at our crime scene?
21:56You do know things get washed up on beaches all the time.
22:00Yeah.
22:01But a bingo ball?
22:04Officer Rose.
22:07Officer Rose.
22:11Officer Rose.
22:13Huh?
22:14Have you made any progress with the tapes yet?
22:16No progress as such.
22:18But I assure you, when I get something, you'll be the first to know.
22:21Inspector, I just spoke with the victim's mom, Sandra.
22:24Go on.
22:25To this day, her mom doesn't know why Kira left the UK.
22:30She didn't just want a change of scene?
22:32No, it was totally out of the blue.
22:34Overnight, Kira left her fiancé, announced that she was setting up a practice abroad, never even kept in touch with
22:40any of her friends.
22:42So it got me thinking, could Kira Mayhew's murder be connected to something that happened back in the UK?
22:48Hmm.
22:51Hmm.
22:52Also, sir, Kira's mom spoke with her just before that swim, while she was heading down to the beach.
23:02And she's...
23:04Officer Rose, see what's going on out there, will you?
23:11Anyway, she said Kira seemed distracted.
23:16Distant, even.
23:17Her mom said it was like she wasn't even present.
23:21Inspector, some big-headed brother in our sports car is asking for you.
23:35So, you got my stuff then?
23:37Not in a physical sense, no.
23:40What's that supposed to mean?
23:41Been a busy day.
23:42Bit of business here, bit of business there.
23:44Always somewhere I got to be in Salomon land.
23:49But, I know who has your thing, so...
23:54Jump in, and let's go get there.
24:05So, this is where all my stuff is?
24:07Nice.
24:08It's Myrtle Chastanet's place.
24:11You ever come across her?
24:12No.
24:13Funnily enough.
24:14She's the kind of person you go to if you have some things to sell that maybe other people may
24:18be less inclined to.
24:19So, she fends she's stolen goods?
24:20It's not for me to put a label on what...
24:22So, I say yes.
24:24We'll have you reunited with your stuff in no time.
24:27She's a very amenable woman.
24:31Who is it?
24:32Myrtle.
24:33It's Salomon Clark, remember me?
24:35Got my brother here with me.
24:37It was his stuff I sold you, and...
24:40We were wondering if we could get it back.
24:42No.
24:43No, clear up.
24:45Myrtle.
24:46Honey.
24:47Don't you honey me, buster.
24:48She's a lot more vexed than I remember her being before.
24:51Myrtle, I'm going to cut to the chase.
24:53You are currently in possession of items illegally taken from my home.
24:59Myrtle.
25:04Think she's thinking about it.
25:10What the...
25:12What's she doing that for?
25:13What is this stuff?
25:16It's in my eyes.
25:17It's burning.
25:19Hot sauce.
25:20Why'd she pour hot sauce over me?
25:22I don't know, man.
25:23But it got to admit.
25:25Kind of funny.
25:30No, I'm telling you what you're playing at.
25:31How much hot sauce has she got?
25:33Why has she got so much of it?
25:34I think it's some bullet things she got going on.
25:35And if there's no central package, then I will set Tiberius on you.
25:39Who's Tiberius?
25:42Feels like we come at a bad time.
25:44Maybe we should come back another day.
25:49They're threatening to publish this article.
25:54Doesn't hold back, does it?
25:57After everything I've done for this, I learn.
26:00This is the thanks I receive.
26:04And the fact that Anton Boussetty's sharpening the knives is of no surprise to me.
26:10You and he have history?
26:13Because I have no respect for his gossip-mongering rag.
26:17This isn't journalism.
26:19This is attention-rubbing rhetoric.
26:25What?
26:29This island petitioned to get you your job back.
26:34And you walked away without any explanation, like you didn't care.
26:38And now, months later, you come back as if nothing happened.
26:43I do care.
26:45You know that.
26:47But others don't.
26:49All they know is that their commissioner of police abandoned them.
26:56It's up to you to change their minds.
27:00Oh, my eyes won't stop singing, man.
27:03Tell me about it.
27:04The sun should go down into my trousers.
27:09I'm telling you, Mervyn, there's hot sauce in place.
27:12This hot sauce is not supposed to go, Mervyn, man.
27:22That's some mighty fiery sauce Mervyn's been cooking up.
27:26I mean, look at us.
27:27We're covered in the stuff.
27:29Like a couple of chicken wings.
27:46You're a liability soul.
27:51You know that.
27:53My life has been turned upside down since you came into it.
27:57Yeah, I kind of have that effect.
28:02I can't live like that, man.
28:07I'm a detective inspector.
28:09Do you understand that?
28:13And I need my clothes back.
28:15And I need to not be chasing around after you.
28:21This is not how I...
28:30I'm sorry, Mervyn.
28:36I need you.
28:36I need you.
28:49What?
29:11Oh, hey, Sarge.
29:13Yeah, right there.
29:14Are you saying both?
29:15Yeah, just, um, yeah.
29:17What are you doing here?
29:18I've been having drinks with a friend from Jamaica.
29:21I was just on my way home when I see the lights are on and I realize Officer Rose is
29:26working
29:26late.
29:27Why is Officer Rose working late, I'm asking myself.
29:31Yeah, just, um, going through these tapes, still, still on these tapes.
29:41And which one you're on now then?
29:43Tape, tape number two.
29:47Two, tape two.
29:48Is that all?
29:49I'm sorry, Sarge.
29:50It's just every time I start listening, my mind just wanders somewhere else.
29:55Then I start thinking about other things.
29:57So then I rewind the tape to the beginning, but then the same thing happens all over again.
30:06It's just my brain, you know?
30:11Can get a bit fidgety sometimes.
30:13Like, I know what I'm meant to be doing and I intentionally try to do it.
30:18What my mind just does is own a thing.
30:23I just want to finish this.
30:28Hmm.
30:30Hmm.
30:30All right.
30:31How about we go through this together?
30:35You and me.
30:37You sure, Sarge?
30:38I know if it was me here needing assistance, you would do exactly the same thing, right?
30:48No.
30:51I'm just joking.
30:52Of course I would.
30:52No question.
30:54So there you go then.
30:57All right.
30:58Let's do this thing.
31:03My boy.
31:05Whew.
31:06So, you have a good time with your friend?
31:08Oh, it was cool, you know?
31:10Yeah?
31:11Nice to hear all the gossip going on back in Kingston.
31:15You know, you never did tell me why you left Jamaica.
31:26I left because of a guy I was seeing.
31:31Things got complicated between us.
31:35And, um, I just realized the best thing that I could do was just to turn and walk away.
31:46Come there?
31:48Hmm.
31:51Hmm.
31:52Mm.
31:52Hmm.
31:52Hmm, hmm, hmm.
31:58Hmm.
32:05Hmm.
32:09Hmm?
32:09Hmm.
32:10Hmm.
32:11Hmm.
32:11Hmm.
32:13Hmm.
32:26Good morning Isaac. Good morning. Good morning Clarence. Good morning. How was the catch this morning? So so. So so
32:36let me look let me look let me see.
32:38OK I want that one there. Good morning Sash. Morning. Inspector. I'm here. We got your message.
33:05So I was doing a bit of nosing around the old place and bingo literally. Oh so that's where it
33:11came from.
33:12Yeah apparently this place used to be a resort for the over 60s. So this must have been here since
33:17then.
33:17OK. So how do you explain one of those bingo balls ending up on the same beach as our crime
33:23scene?
33:24Well it didn't magic itself there did it? Somebody must have taken it from this. So we're gonna have to
33:30dust it for prints.
33:31I could do that for you sir. Oh nice one. How about you two? You got something?
33:38So the tapes Cara Mayhew recorded over the last week there was 10 hours of it. And throughout it all
33:45when she talks about Alistair and Margot Hartnell she doesn't once mention they lost a daughter.
33:50She was only 17. Seems their marriage has been struggling ever since.
33:58Which was kinda odd right? So we did some digging. Their daughter Charlotte was killed in a car accident. A
34:05hit and run.
34:06But the person who did it was never found. All that was known was that it was a female driver.
34:12Only the hit and run happened outside the family home in Islington.
34:17Cara Mayhew's practice was just over a mile away.
34:22Also it happened on the 1st of April 2021. And Cara Mayhew, she moved over here six weeks later.
34:29Is it possible that that's what it was? Cara was behind a car accident?
34:37That's good work. A pair of you. Well done. You go and get that dusted and we're going to talk
34:42to the Hartnells.
34:46So who's gonna hold this then?
34:49We didn't come here because we suspected Cara Mayhew was a woman who killed our daughter.
34:54We came in a last ditch attempt to save our marriage. Truly we did.
34:59Then why did you never mention to Miss Mayhew the fact that you lost your daughter?
35:03By your own admission, your relationship problem started five years ago at the same time.
35:11We didn't talk about it with her. Because we never talk about it. It's easier if we don't.
35:18Margot tries, bless her. Or used to, you know, to try to get me to open up. But I just
35:24can't bear it.
35:28I don't want to lose her. I want to fix our marriage. But I can't if I have to churn
35:34all that up again.
35:37I'm just not strong enough.
35:38It's alright, my love.
35:51If the Hartnells didn't come here for revenge, then the question still remains.
35:55Why did Cara Mayhew leave London five years ago? What happened to make her suddenly up sticks and move to
35:59the other side of the world?
36:01Please give me a call when you get this. Just, just let me know you're okay.
36:10So, it's Stacey. I think she's had a meltdown. I haven't seen her since yesterday.
36:17I think she knew. I think Cara told her about me and her sister.
36:24Mishnah, everything alright?
36:27We'll look into it.
36:42I saw she was upset, crying. So, I went over. As soon as she said she was staying at the
36:49conference retreat, I called you.
36:52Couldn't get much from her. Except, she didn't want me to phone her husband.
36:59Yeah. Well that's hardly surprising.
37:03Sir, um, maybe I should take this one?
37:21Everyone knows, don't they?
37:22Only us. May I?
37:31Can you tell me when you found out, Mrs Warbur?
37:37Thursday night.
37:38I went to get some air on the beach and Cara was there.
37:42She'd been drinking.
37:44I've not seen it like that.
37:45She'd always been so composed.
37:47She could hardly stand up, so I helped her back to her bungalow.
37:52She was sort of rambling.
37:54Talking about some guy who had betrayed her back in England before she moved here.
37:59I'd been cheating on her.
38:01I got her home and put her on the couch.
38:04And she looked me in the eyes and spoke to me.
38:07Stacey.
38:08Like it really mattered.
38:09Don't be like me.
38:11Don't, Stacey.
38:12There was just something in the way she'd said it.
38:16And I knew she'd had a one-to-one session with Luke that day and maybe whatever he'd said had
38:20like, triggered her.
38:23It reminded her of her own betrayal, that's why she was drunk.
38:27So when she was asleep, I saw her notebook.
38:34I felt sick.
38:37Couldn't even process it.
38:39Couldn't even breathe.
38:41So I just pretended I didn't know.
38:45Stacey, you've been through a lot in the last couple of days.
38:51If you were in denial, if Kira was pressing you to confront what you'd found out...
38:58No. No, I didn't.
39:00I admit there was all this pent up stuff inside me, but I didn't kill Kira.
39:05I swear.
39:14All right.
39:16Well, thank you for talking with me, Mr. Shaw.
39:19What did the ex-boyfriend have to say for himself?
39:21The ex-fiancee.
39:23The affair he was having had been going on for three whole years behind Kira's back when she found out.
39:30Wow. That must have flawed her.
39:32I mean, her job is to provide relationship advice, and all the time she was blind to a three-year
39:36-long deception.
39:38Explains why she suddenly upped and left for another country.
39:41And why Luke's betrayal triggered her so much.
39:44And why she had one or three over the limit.
39:46But, it still doesn't explain why she was murdered three nights ago.
39:52Inspector, deus Thomas, I think we got something.
40:02Patrick Campbell, therapist. Consultation fee, $150.
40:08He's based in Guadeloupe. Specializes in hypnotherapy.
40:12Kira called him Friday afternoon, asking for advice.
40:16He offered to share their conversation as part of our investigation.
40:20On what?
40:22She said a client of hers, Margot Hartnell, had just opened up to her, and was struggling with the memory
40:27of an event of her recent past.
40:29Because she had completely blocked it out.
40:31Which, apparently, is not uncommon for people dealing with traumatic experiences.
40:35And according to Mr. Campbell, it's a pretty unorthodox approach for Kira to resort to hypnotherapy so early on in
40:42the process.
40:43But she was convinced it was necessary.
40:46So, this forgotten memory, do we know what it's to do with?
40:49The night their daughter was killed in a hit and run five years ago.
40:53Mrs. Hartnell does not remember a thing about it.
40:57But ever since, she's been growing this feeling of guilt, you know?
41:02Like, maybe she might have done something bad that night.
41:07Wait, you don't mean...
41:11All that was known was that it was a female driver.
41:15Mrs. Hartnell wanted it all off the record.
41:18That's why there was nothing in her notes or recordings.
41:23Right, we need to talk to Mrs. Hartnell and that therapist.
41:26We need him here sharpish.
41:28Come on.
41:30Well, at first, it was just guilt, I felt.
41:33Our grief counsellor said it was normal as a parent to feel a sense of responsibility.
41:39Look, whatever I did five years ago, I want the truth to come out.
41:42If you think I killed Kira Mayhew because I wanted to stop that happening, you're wrong.
41:47She arranged for me to have hypnotherapy today.
41:50Well, that can still happen, Mrs. Hartnell.
41:53We've arranged for a hypnotherapist to speak with you, if you feel you're able.
41:59Inspector!
42:01If you wouldn't mind going with Sergeant Fletcher.
42:04Yeah.
42:09I guess all we can do now is wait.
42:17Ah, we're back to the bingo ball.
42:20Inspector!
42:21Sarge, just got back from dusting off the bingo ball machine for prints.
42:26Unfortunately, nothing.
42:34What's up with the inspector?
42:36Am I alright?
42:40Inspector!
42:41Everything alright, sir? You've got something?
42:45Sir, what are you doing?
42:49It's a little experiment.
42:52The bingo balls float.
43:08The bingo ball floats.
43:13OK, so why take it out of the bingo ball cage thingy and bring it to the sea? To the
43:20water's edge?
43:22Was it just to see if it floats?
43:25Or...
43:26Maybe it's to see where it goes.
43:33In which case...
43:35So how did one of them manage to leave the dinner table, run down to the beach, somehow get themselves
43:40a hundred metres out to sea, drown Keira Mayhew?
43:43None of them left the table for more than two to three minutes at a time.
43:47And was that a regular thing, or going for a swim at that time?
43:51Like, most evenings?
43:53She said Keira seemed distracted.
44:00Of course!
44:02That's why you were there, you little beauty!
44:05Mwah!
44:09OK, I need to speak to a fisherman, or an oceanographer-ologist type of person.
44:14Basically anyone who knows the currents in this bay.
44:16Dears Thomas, I need a toxicology report done on Keira Mayhew.
44:19Officer Rose, I need you to collect some evidence from her office.
44:23But you know who did it?
44:25I do!
44:26And I know how they managed to drown Keira Mayhew a hundred metres out of sea, without even stepping a
44:32foot in the water!
44:33Come on!
44:38For those wondering why Margot Hartnell isn't here with us, it's because she's currently with a hypnotherapist, doing what she
44:45was always supposed to be doing today, trying to recover a buried memory of what really happened five years ago,
44:52the night her daughter died.
44:55Why am I telling you this?
44:57Because Margot's therapy sessions were meant to be conducted by Keira Mayhew, until somebody tried to stop the truth from
45:05coming out.
45:06By murdering her.
45:08Mr Hartnell.
45:13Me?
45:14I...
45:14I...
45:14I...
45:15I...
45:15I did no such thing.
45:16Oh.
45:16Oh, but you did.
45:17I know you did.
45:19But how?
45:19I was at dinner when it happened, on dry bloody land.
45:22Yeah, you were.
45:24Which is why it was so clever of you.
45:26But now that I've got a better understanding of what's gone on, I believe you created a small window of
45:31opportunity in which to commit murder.
45:34But not a hundred metres out at sea.
45:37You drowned Keira Mayhew right outside your own bungalow.
45:43Because, from the very start of this case, we've worked on the assumption that, as Miss Mayhew's body was discovered
45:49one hundred metres out at sea, in a straight line from where she swam, that's where she was drowned.
45:56But what if, actually, when Miss Mayhew went for her evening dip, she preferred to swim along the shore, rather
46:04than out from it?
46:06That would mean she'd have to swim past your bungalow farther along the beach.
46:12And that would give you opportunity to commit murder.
46:17But when?
46:18I told you I was at dinner when it happened.
46:21Yeah, we have security camera footage that shows you leaving the dinner table to get your glasses at 18 minutes
46:28past seven.
46:29I was gone, what, a couple of minutes, three minutes at the most.
46:33You're not seriously suggesting I was able to physically drown a fit and healthy woman in that time, without getting
46:40soaked in water?
46:41Yeah. Sounds impossible, right?
46:44But I don't think Miss Mayhew was as fit and healthy as she might normally be.
46:49I believe you sedated her.
46:53We know that your wife uses sleeping pills.
46:56None of us been to bed, and I took a sleeping pill.
47:00And we also know that you are the last person to have a one-to-one session with Miss Mayhew
47:04that day at 5pm.
47:06One-to-one sessions in the afternoon with Stacey Warbur, then Alistair Hartnell.
47:12And while there, we believe you spiked her drink when she wasn't looking.
47:21We didn't believe Kira was drugged because the finger marks on her neck suggested she was held down by force
47:27and drowned.
47:27We're awaiting the toxicology report and results from the glass Kira drank from.
47:33And I've no doubt we'll get confirmation that there were significant traces of sleeping pills in her system.
47:39And so, while Miss Mayhew was swimming, she suddenly felt drowsy and swam ashore.
47:48When you returned to your bungalow under the pretense of getting your glasses, you ran down to the beach where
47:55Miss Mayhew was lying unconscious on the sand.
47:57And then you did two things.
48:00First, you grabbed her neck and shoulders, making sure to leave bruises so it would look like someone had strangled
48:08her and forced her under the water.
48:11Before moving her into the sea, for her to be carried away, making sure that she was face down, so
48:19that still unconscious, her lungs would fill with water.
48:22It took less than a minute.
48:25All you had to do now was hurry back to the dinner table and leave Kira to drown and let
48:31the sea do the rest of the work for you.
48:35We checked with a local oceanologist at the university, and the current in this bay moves in a north-westerly
48:43direction,
48:43which means it would have carried Miss Mayhew's body diagonally, taking her from your bungalow here to where her body
48:52was discovered here.
48:54And with her clothes being left on the beach here, we'd all assume she swam in a straight line.
49:02Now, you had no idea where the currents would take Kira's body.
49:06So, you had to test it first, didn't you?
49:11You went and found this.
49:14And you threw it into the sea to observe which route it took, which was conveniently in a north-westerly
49:20direction,
49:20from your bungalow directly to where Kira began her nightly swim.
49:24And that's when your plan finally came together.
49:27Kira's body was found still at sea, not long after she drowned.
49:32But this ball, left overnight, ended up washing up ashore.
49:36And that was your undoing.
49:38But, why would he do this to her?
49:41Because he didn't want Kira to help his wife remember.
49:45Or remember what?
49:46What he did.
49:54I remember, Alistair.
49:58I remember all of it.
50:02All the horror of it.
50:05You rushing in and telling me someone had hurt our little girl.
50:11And I remember the ambulance.
50:14And the police.
50:16And the shock and the pain.
50:20And I remember you coming in.
50:25And holding me in tears shaking.
50:29But it was heartbroken.
50:34And I remember, in that moment, the smell of alcohol on your breath.
50:45And I remember coming back inside.
50:51And seeing you.
50:58I checked the original case file, Mr Hartnell.
51:02And the phone call to the police, in which the hit and run driver was described as female, came from
51:08an anonymous caller.
51:11That was you, wasn't it?
51:13Trying to direct suspicion away from yourself.
51:23I would have lost everything.
51:33I would have lost everything.
51:45All the time.
51:58I don't know.
51:59I never want to see you ever again.
52:01I don't know.
52:09I don't know.
52:16well well well good evening to you both good evening catherine we spoke at marion

53:00sorry after receiving some sage advice from my good friend here as i say in my statement
53:07it hurt to think that the bond i had forged with this island had been broken but the circumstances
53:15were of my own making so i will be the one to fix it and how will you do that
53:22as of tomorrow i will
53:24be commencing an initiative with my team and with a little help from the islands mayor an initiative
53:30to strengthen our relationship with the community so if you'll excuse me i have work to do good evening

53:57good news enjoy your evening
54:14oh
54:32Sorry, mate. That's my hat.
54:54Hey, Sol. Look, I just got home and I saw you brought all my stuff back.
55:01Oh, you know. Work the old Salomon Clark magic. Yeah, well, I just wanted to say thank you.
55:08Did you have to give Myrtle their money back? I mean, you're not in debt still, are you?
55:12Ah, don't worry yourself. Anyway, man, got to get aboard back to Antigua.
55:17Got some business over there that needs attendant. Of course you have.
55:21I mean, there's always something going on in Solomonland, right?
55:25You said it.
55:29Um, look, what about us now? I mean, what do we do next?
55:38I don't know, man. Like you said, I am troubled. A detective doesn't need that in his life.
55:45Look, Sol, I didn't mean... Maybe I shouldn't have said that.
55:50Dan, no disrespect to you, bro, but ain't much good to me having a police officer around.
55:56Got a reputation to keep.
55:58Yeah, yeah, no, I... Tell me I understand.
56:03Look, man. We tried this and...
56:08Maybe it just wasn't meant to be, you know?
56:11Look after yourself, brother.
56:12Yeah, you too.
56:14Look, Solomon, I...
56:15Or, why, why?
56:30I...
56:40What?
56:41Why?
56:57Hello, neighbor. Quiet morning.
57:00Was.
57:01Henry Ashby moved to St. Marie ten years ago.
57:04Henry was definitely mixed up in something murky.
57:06The victim's copy of this book was missing from his bookshelf.
57:09So, where is it?
57:10I need to reassure you that this island still matters to me.
57:16Why did the detective not bother showing up?
57:18Why was your moped seen outside the victim's villa up in the hills?
57:22Did you ever catch them, Inspector? I'd sleep much better knowing you did.
57:25It wasn't me!
57:42To be continued...
