00:01Welcome to the final episode of Small Town Scandal. I'm Toby Buchanan.
00:07I'm back at Dorleo Police Station following a fresh lead.
00:11As of last episode I discovered that the automated lawnmowers buzzing around Uncle Mitch's death scene have cameras.
00:17Which means they may have filmed the killer.
00:20Right now all we've got is the McKeith brothers swearing
00:23It was a demon.
00:24Which is not ideal.
00:25My dad is still suspect number one and facing a life sentence.
00:29And my old school buddy, local cop Matt McKenzie's ego is out of control after capturing serial killer Mrs Mott.
00:36And now he's gunning for a new trophy, my dad.
00:39Also the town's annual Philly Festival in Frocks in the Field is about to kick off.
00:43Which means chaos and mum stressed.
00:46So there's murder, lawnmowers, small town egos and a potentially award winning podcast all on the line.
00:52Actually scratch that.
00:53Note to self, don't put that part in.
01:03I had a plan which required me getting into the bowels of the Tohoiho Police Station.
01:14Unfortunately the place was crawling with cops.
01:17But fortunately I've discovered that this place isn't overly security conscious.
01:22And I have a naturally gymnastic ability which will help me sneak past the blue uniform brigade and infiltrate the
01:29heart of the beast.
01:39Okay, so it turns out that automated mowers have an inbuilt camera in them.
01:42I just need to find one.
01:51I was about to find oneaway shooting.
01:53Just wandering away withè¦å¯Ÿ.
01:57One of them.
01:58Horn of them.
01:58All the rules.
02:07The rules.
02:08The rules.
02:09Which rules.
02:09The rules.
02:10What plan does this mean?
02:12What plans.
02:13The rules.
02:38So, I don't even know how to get to the camera,
02:39let alone see what's on it.
02:53Oh, hello. Hey, I'm actually really glad to bump into you.
02:57Oh no, something happened to Dad.
02:58Oh, I don't know. No, no, no, I just need your opinion on something to do with the trial.
03:03These ones? Or these ones?
03:06Um, I don't know.
03:07Which one of these is? Oh, I'm innocent more. These?
03:11All these ones?
03:13Um, I guess the rainbow leaf.
03:15Oh, really?
03:16Yeah.
03:16I really thought you would have gone for the purple fern.
03:18I'm not sure it matters too much, Misty.
03:21I beg your pardon?
03:22Well, whatever earrings you wear, it won't make a difference.
03:24We all know where this case is headed.
03:26Mind your business, Matt McKenzie.
03:27Anyway, I'll see you guys.
03:29Sorry, scusey.
03:30Hey ya.
03:31Hey ya.
03:32What's up at your top there, Tubbs?
03:33Ah, nothing.
03:34See ya.
03:34Bye.
03:35Tubbs!
03:36Tubbs!
03:36Tubbs!
03:38Tubbs!
03:40What are you going for?
03:42Police!
03:44All units!
03:45I'm in proceed!
03:47Tubbs!
03:48Back!
03:52Back up!
04:15Oh!
04:16Whoa, whoa, whoa!
04:17What are you doing?
04:18You should have to help me.
04:19The footage on this.
04:20We need to see it immediately.
04:21With this?
04:22Yes!
04:23Oh!
04:23Why didn't you tell me there ain't no cameras in there?
04:26I thought that was obvious.
04:27The footage on that one is the last piece in this crazy puzzle.
04:30There is no point.
04:32Camera, send the bulletin to black box.
04:35Black box?
04:36It's a whole computer.
04:37It's not in there.
04:39Oh, God!
04:40Oh, God!
04:41Oh, God!
04:42Okay.
04:43I'm back at the Arthur Megastore.
04:45And I'm following another crazy twist.
04:47Turns out that in order to see the footage on the mowers,
04:49I need to go to Uncle Winch's mansion and look on the home computer.
04:54Wait.
04:55Wait.
04:55What?
04:57Gotcha, Tubbs.
04:58Yeah.
04:59You're under arrest for stealing police evidence.
05:01Okay.
05:01Let me explain.
05:02No, no, no.
05:03Tubbs!
05:03Give up, mate.
05:04It's already over.
05:06Ah!
05:08Oh, shit!
05:10Ah!
05:11Ah!
05:11Ah!
05:12Ah!
05:13Ah!
05:13Oh!
05:14You have the right to remain silent.
05:16Okay, just gimme.
05:16Shush it!
05:17Tubbs!
05:18Do not ruin this for me.
05:19Okay, sorry.
05:20Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
05:26Get in there.
05:27Yeah.
05:37Once a criminal, always a criminal, eh, Toby?
05:41What are you on about?
05:41I bought this big jar of lollipops, with my own money, as rewards for my class.
05:48And young Toby here decided to have them all for himself.
05:51I was in your class 25 years ago.
05:54Can we let it go, please?
05:55I'm just pointing out, once a criminal, always a criminal.
05:58I'm a petty criminal at best, and you're the one that killed 39 people.
06:02Oh.
06:04Fair call.
06:09Been good to see you, Toby.
06:12Would've been better under better circumstances.
06:15Yeah.
06:16Yeah, it has been nice seeing you, Dad.
06:19I just wanted to apologise for getting off to a bad start.
06:27What do you mean?
06:29Well, it can't help that I was such a crappy parent.
06:32I'm sorry, son.
06:34Really, I am.
06:39It's okay, Dad.
06:40No, you tried.
06:42I was at the pub most of the time.
06:45You'd defend for yourself.
06:47But you're a fighter.
06:49You hang in there.
06:50Not me.
06:51I just give up when the going gets rough.
06:55You're a scrapper.
07:00As if...
07:01I am, son.
07:03You're a real scrapper.
07:05Thanks.
07:06And there's something else I've got to tell you.
07:09What?
07:12What's that?
07:13What the hell's that?
07:16You took your bloody time.
07:25What are you doing?
07:29You couldn't be in so much trouble.
07:39Good luck.
07:41You pricks.
07:56You're a punker.
08:01You're a punker.
08:03You're a punker.
08:04You're a punker.
08:09What the hell are they all doing here?
08:11It's the Philly Festival, Daddy.
08:12Oi!
08:13You get back here!
08:16Get away, you goddamn...
08:22I got you!
08:26Get out of it, you poof!
08:40Shit!
08:41Sorry.
08:58Oh, yeah?
08:59Yeah, yeah, yeah.
09:04Cheers, Toad.
09:04We could have been killed out here.
09:06Okay, we just need to get to Uncle Mitch's.
09:08If we can get a car, hopefully we can sneak out of town.
09:11No way.
09:12I'm totally outnumbered.
09:16These are your mum's frocks.
09:18Yes, they're for frocks in the field.
09:20She's doing a fashion show.
09:21She hasn't lost a touch, has she?
09:23Oh, what a talent.
09:25Look at all this.
09:29She's an extraordinary woman.
09:31We don't have time for this, Dad.
09:33We've got to get you out of here.
09:34It's no use, son.
09:36We're as good as dog tagging.
09:37Could you be positive for one second, Dad?
09:40Could you try that, please?
09:42I'm trying to save you from a life sentence.
09:45Sorry.
09:49I know my edit.
09:50Shut up.
09:51Fair enough.
09:52No, I mean shut up.
09:53I've got an idea.
09:59They're following me.
10:03Can I ride the horse?
10:04Piss off.
10:05Please.
10:06I said piss off, Kate.
10:08This way, Dad.
10:10This way, Dad.
10:11This way, Dad.
10:12And three.
10:13And, yes.
10:14Oh.
10:14No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
10:15This is the Phillies.
10:16The stallions are over there, please.
10:18Over there.
10:18Over there.
10:19Ah, ah, ah, ah.
10:21Katie, it's me.
10:23Toby?
10:24What are you doing here?
10:25The police are looking for you everywhere.
10:26You're in so much trouble.
10:28Can I borrow your car, please?
10:30What?
10:30No, why?
10:31Just give us your keys, Katie.
10:33We need the keys.
10:34If you don't give us your keys, I'm going to tell Matt that you touched my leg in the car
10:38the other day.
10:38Um, good.
10:40And a yes, and a go, and a dance, and a dance, and a...
10:44He would never believe you anyway, so you shouldn't.
10:46Do you want to try me?
10:52Good.
10:52Good.
10:53Um, smiling.
10:53Always smiling.
10:54Always going.
10:55And a going.
10:56Okay?
10:58Liz, that's got a bit of a sticky ignition, okay?
11:00So when you turn it on, forward, right, just before you feel kind of hits the...
11:05You have to hold it.
11:06Just...
11:06I'll take it.
11:07I'll take you, okay?
11:08I'll drive you to where you need to go.
11:11My car's over there.
11:12All right?
11:12All right?
11:13Good.
11:13Keep going.
11:14Keep going.
11:14Can you drill them?
11:15Keep going.
11:15A-da-da-da-da-da-da.
11:17Smile.
11:18Smile.
11:18Jesus.
11:19Bloody hot pain a horse's ass.
11:21Don't dip it down.
11:22They'll see you.
11:31McKenzie, run run run run I've got you now if you get on
11:43God I don't want to go to prison, oh my god
11:47You're not going to go to prison
11:48We could always tell them we kidnapped you by force
11:51Oh yes Bruce, that's a really good idea, thank you so much, you'll be great
11:55This thing can go any faster Katie
11:58Actually hold on, I think there is a button that I have always wanted to press
12:02Which is crazy because I feel like now is the kind of
12:06Is that faster?
12:07No I don't think it's going faster
12:08Okay this is it then
12:09Okay what's the plan boys, what's going on?
12:12Okay I'm hoping it gives hope is that the automated lawn mowers that mowed up Uncle Mitch
12:16Filmed whoever it was that killed him
12:18And that that footage is on the home computer in the home office
12:21Oh my god
12:21What?
12:22That is so clever
12:23That is so, I never even thought of that but it makes perfect sense
12:27Oh Toby, you're actually so smart
12:31Oh my god
12:33And you're really smart too Katie
12:34Yeah
12:37I also find you're really beautiful
12:39Toby
12:40I mean
12:43Look, I uh
12:46You're a sweetheart, okay
12:49And I know how you've always felt about me
12:54But you just, you've got to get over this now, okay
12:57You've got work to do
12:59This is a big moment
13:00This is your time
13:02This is your time to shine

14:00Ah
14:00Ah
14:01On your knees
14:02Immediately
14:02All of you
14:03Now
14:03Babe, babe, babe, babe, we're just gonna watch a video, okay, of Mitch's death
14:06Come on
14:07Babe, um, please
14:08Please, baby
14:09Baby, my love
14:10My, my, my baby love
14:11I am on the edge
14:13It's important, okay
14:14You gotta see this
14:17Babe
14:21Okay
14:21Everything hinged on this
14:22If my investigation was wrong, Dad got life and I might be joining him
14:27Okay, so here, you everyone's here, you comfy?
14:29Yeah
14:30Ready?
14:30Yeah
14:31No
14:35It's the bloody McKeith brothers
14:36It was the McKeith brothers
14:38It was the McKeith brothers
14:51Yes
14:51It was the McKeith brothers
15:04She's picked up the camera
15:09The horse is
15:12Oh my god
15:18Oh, Crocky
15:19Oh
15:28A demon
15:33And the clowns just drive off
15:36Hang on, who's that?
15:37This must be where I'm making an appearance
15:40Yeah, that's me
15:42Bruce
15:44And I'll just put it down, see?
15:48I knew you were innocent, Dad
15:50I told you I didn't do it
15:51And then, so...
15:54Wait, Katie?
15:56Um, look, I'll just, I'll explain later, okay?
15:58Yeah, it all makes sense, Maddy
16:00Hang on, you, you knew about that
16:01So there I am
16:03And then I'm like, what?
16:04And then I go
16:05So then, if you can, which is very clear
16:08That I just go straight to the path
16:17Wow-wee, would you look at that
16:19I'd done it
16:20I'd managed to prove Dad's innocence
16:24I'd finally succeeded and closed the case
16:26But the feeling was bittersweet
16:30Petal, my childhood horse
16:32The only real friend I'd ever known
16:33Was a killer
16:37What we uncovered here today
16:39Is going to take our small town
16:40A long time to get over
16:42Probably days
16:46But before that
16:48I had some gloating to do
16:50Or maybe just some emotional management
16:54I guess no one would have suspected a horse, hey?
16:57What?
16:59Are you alright, mate?
17:01Yes, fine, I just couldn't hear you
17:04I was just saying
17:05I guess no one would have suspected the horse
17:07But
17:08I guess now
17:10Proofs that we were right about Dad being innocent, hey?
17:13So
17:15So
17:16So?
17:17So I told you so
17:21Not, you know
17:22But you still managed to find out who Mrs. Moth was
17:24And catch her
17:25Which is, you know
17:27Amazing
17:28Until she got away
17:29But still
17:33Shut up, Tubbs
17:39Let's go home
18:03And so
18:04Our small town scandal
18:05Came to a close
18:06Although the dust had begun to settle
18:09On our wild scandal
18:10I couldn't stop worrying about Petal's future
18:13So I stole her away from Uncle Mitch's
18:16And anonymously released her
18:18On an ethical farm for abused animals
18:19And didn't tell anyone about it
18:22And now she's pregnant
18:23To a hot stallion
18:25Sue's frock designs
18:26AKA Mum's dresses
18:28Were shown in the background of the news footage
18:30Of Mrs. Moth's escape
18:31And her orders have gone up tenfold
18:34Mum says
18:35Cousin Carol will be taking my room permanently
18:38So they can fulfil all the orders
18:41Meanwhile
18:41I'm proud to say
18:43I'm self-producing this podcast
18:44And really want to do a shout out
18:46To the nearly ten people
18:47Who have already listened
18:49Liked and subscribed
18:52Well
18:53That's all from me
18:54And our small town of Te Hoiho
18:56Until next time
18:57Goodbye
19:02Goes on a bit doesn't it
19:04But overall
19:08Not bad hopes
19:09And hopefully
19:11One of your listeners
19:12Can offer you a proper job one day
19:14And then you can finally move out
19:16But yes
19:17I
19:20You've done well
19:24Anyway
19:25I suppose I should try and get some sleep
19:27You should too
19:28You look exhausted
19:30And stay away from that bridge
19:33Goodnight
19:36So with the podcast in the can
19:38I was at a bit of a loss
19:39At what to do next
19:40Sure I enjoyed the medium of podcastery
19:43But you needed a good story to tell
19:45And I was clean out of those
19:47So I was just happy to lie back and relax
19:50Well until tomorrow morning at least
19:52When I'd have to find some way of making cash
19:55So I could move out of home again
20:10Hello Subrakanan here
20:16Who's been murdered
20:19And they've no idea who did it
20:23That sounds positively gruesome
20:26Oh what a scandal
