00:13We say we want to go home
00:31We say we want to go home
00:35We want to go home
00:37We never find
00:40We want to go home
00:43Where we are too
00:46We want to go home
00:50We never find
00:52We want to go home
00:56We say, vivre, go, go,
01:00John, we say, vivre, go, go,
01:06how are you?
01:08We say, vivre, go, go,
01:12how are you?
01:15Viva.
01:26Morning, Henry. Sorry to disturb. Fleur wants us all clear.
01:32You know those parakeet flowers of yours?
01:34Mm-hmm.
01:35Not loving that spot.
01:36They'll stay where they are.
01:38Poor things, wilting away.
01:40I always say gardening is all about balance.
01:45Here I was thinking it was about enjoying peace and quiet.
01:48Or connecting with something bigger than yourself.
01:52Go on, where do you plant them?
01:54Well, they do best in partial shade.
01:57Plenty of morning light, but avoid the afternoon sun.
02:00Don't want them burning out.
02:02I shall bear that in mind.
02:03Back, sir. Drop everything.
02:06I've had 30 kilos of grog clay delivered, and it's baking in the sun.
02:10Be a darling and shift it for me, would you, before it turns to concrete?
02:15Hello, neighbor. Quiet morning.
02:18Was?
02:18Friday, 9.30, as usual.
02:20If you're late again, I'm leaving without you.
02:22Oh, you are cruel.
02:24Can you remind me to pick up starfruit?
02:26I've been experimenting with my smoothies.
02:29Right, Baxter, let's go.
02:30When the muse is upon me, I must strike while the clay is still soft.
02:38It's great.
02:39I was born and the senikins!
02:39I'm leaving without you even prolifery.
02:57It's hard to do better than others.
02:58There's a great amount of form, all this space is but here you have.
02:58That means we live in homepage.
02:58An hour's way of running?
02:59quêity.
03:02Oh, I did not go wrong?
03:05There weren't so many people in perhaps to talk to the site.
03:10Fancy a cold glass of homemade lemonade?
03:12I'd kill it for one.
03:30I think it came from down there.
03:33Did it come for a Henry's?
03:36Henry!
03:37Henry!
03:40I hope he's on.
03:42Henry!
03:44Henry!
03:46Henry?
03:47No!
03:52Who did this?
03:54Henry!
03:56Henry!
03:58Henry!
03:59Henry!
04:06Henry!
04:34Jeans down.
04:37Relax your faces.
04:40In Paris, we say, you don't take a photograph.
04:44You create it.
04:46Okay?
04:48You're really into this.
04:50Yes, makes a change.
04:51To be in a photo where my head won't get cut off.
04:54Every family photo ever.
04:56You see me, from the shoulders, down.
04:59Shall we try your hand on your hip?
05:05Less like you've stepped on a sea urchin.
05:08More like you just heard the rums on the house.
05:13Morning, Commissioner.
05:15Where is Inspector Wilson?
05:19We did try, sir.
05:22He said he's only here short term, so didn't think it was his place.
05:26Also, apparently football is on.
05:29And presumably, the prime rate drops every time his team plays?
05:35One can only hope, sir.
05:38The whole point of this initiative is to make the wider community feel that we are all in this for
05:48them.
05:48to strengthen their trust in us.
05:53How are we going to begin to do that when our senior detective can't be bothered to turn up for
06:01a team photograph?
06:02He better make it to the launch this evening.
06:07Um, I should get that.
06:09Excuse me, sir.
06:16Come on.
06:17Just give me the second half.
06:19It's not even a big game.
06:22PHONE RINGS
06:24PHONE RINGS
06:26What?
06:27The Commissioner is seriously not happy you missed your close up.
06:30Can't they just Photoshop me in?
06:32Something tells me he's not going to go for that.
06:35Is that all you came here for?
06:36No.
06:37There's been a shooting up in the hills.
06:43PHONE RINGS
06:47Stupid island.
06:51The victim's name is Henry Ashby, originally from the UK, moved to St Marie ten years ago.
06:58What else do we know?
06:59PHONE RINGS
07:00His neighbour, Fleur Edwards, and her gardener, Baxter Turton, heard the shot around 10.30.
07:06When they arrived, the doors were wide open, and they saw someone on a white moped speeding off through the
07:11trees.
07:12Miss Edwards said she saw the same moped outside the house last night.
07:16Even got a registration number.
07:18Sergeant Fletcher is on the case.
07:20Oh.
07:21There's mud on the floor.
07:25No sign of a forced entry.
07:28So, either the victim let the killer in, or the killer let themself in from the garden, shot Henry, and
07:37pegged it back the same way.
07:38That's a serious tattoo, boss.
07:41Do I feel like I've seen it somewhere before?
07:44Yeah, it's Pegasus.
07:45Oh!
07:46The flying horse mutant thing.
07:49Something like that.
07:50And the bloke riding him is Bellerophon.
07:52He's part of the parachute regiment in Signia.
07:54Mate of mine had one.
07:55He said the army trained him for anything.
07:59Which is why he now runs a soft plane Croydon.
08:04Yeah, he might be a military man, so let's check that out, shall we?
08:08Ten years on this island, and not even a vase in the gaff.
08:12A big read as well.
08:14Yeah.
08:15Man had a lot of books.
08:22Interesting.
08:23What is?
08:24This is a meticulously organized library.
08:27And he's filed his books alphabetically by author.
08:31Reading's never really been my thing, you know.
08:33But if I have to read a book, I usually start at the last page first.
08:38You know what I mean?
08:39Swerve the sad endings.
08:40Hang on.
08:42There's one missing.
08:44This section is Charles Dickens' novels.
08:48Pickwick Papers, Our Mutual Friend David Copperfield, etc.
08:53There's one missing.
08:56Which one is it?
08:58I think it's tale of two cities.
09:00Yeah, it's definitely tale of two cities.
09:02Where can that have got to?
09:05Officer Rose, check the bedside table, yeah?
09:08He might have lent it to someone, or even lost it.
09:13Maybe.
09:13I don't know, Harry.
09:15Nothing in the bedroom, sir.
09:25I was taking up my boots.
09:28Then we both heard it.
09:30It's terrifying.
09:31I could feel it in my bones something awful had happened.
09:35We rushed straight over, but...
09:36We were too late.
09:38Next thing I know, I heard ties kicking up dirt.
09:42Couldn't get a look at the registration plate, but they were wearing a helmet and a black top.
09:48And you said you think you saw the same moped last night?
09:51I'm often at working late.
09:53From my studio, I can see Henry's.
09:56Someone was outside, lurking, peering through his windows.
10:00At first, I thought maybe it was the delivery driver.
10:05Wrong address.
10:06But something felt...
10:08Off.
10:09So I jotted the number plate down in my sketchbook.
10:12How long have you lived out here?
10:13Three months.
10:15Long enough to adore it.
10:17I needed space for my work, to find inspiration, and...
10:22Look.
10:24Of course, when I arrived, the garden was an absolute jungle.
10:27Hired me on the spot.
10:29Said the weeds were choking her genius.
10:32And Henry?
10:34Was he a good neighbor?
10:36He kept...
10:37Kept to himself.
10:38Didn't seem to want to get close.
10:40Still, he drove you into town on Fridays, right?
10:43Big shop day?
10:45That's the only thing on his calendar.
10:46He offered.
10:48I may have mentioned how tiresome I find driving.
10:51Having done it for years in London.
10:53And there's no Jubilee Line on St. Marie, right?
10:56Not quite.
10:58Anyone else ever stop by?
11:01Not that I know of.
11:03Flo is right.
11:04Mr. Asby wasn't much for company.
11:07Preferred books?
11:08Yeah, speaking of which, did he ever lend you any?
11:12Tail of two cities, maybe?
11:15Dickens?
11:17Inspector?
11:19We'll be in touch.
11:27So that moped's from my rental outfit.
11:30Moped and glory.
11:31Just spoke to the owner, Winston.
11:33Bit of a relic.
11:34But he keep our good records, you know.
11:35Bottom line?
11:37Driver's a tourist from the UK, arrived a week ago, but he provided an ID and a local address.
11:43Craig Pinnock, an accountant from Nunhead in London.
11:52Craig Pinnock.
11:54Want to step away from the bike, please?
11:59So, how can I help you, detectives?
12:02There's not a problem, is there?
12:03We need to establish your whereabouts this morning.
12:05Yeah, a fatal shooting just a few miles from here.
12:09A man called Henry Ashby was murdered.
12:12Do you know him?
12:14Well, no.
12:16Never heard of the guy.
12:18That's funny.
12:19A moped, just like the one you were scrubbing clean outside, was used to flee the scene.
12:25We also have evidence placing that same white moped and its driver outside the victim's house last night.
12:31What?
12:32Sorry.
12:33No, there must be some mistake.
12:36I, um...
12:37Look, I didn't shoot anyone.
12:40How do we clear this up?
12:42Let's start from the beginning, yeah?
12:46Last night, why was your moped seen outside the victim's villa, up in the hills?
12:52Right.
12:53Okay.
12:54Um, so I may have driven past that house last night, but only because I took a wrong turn.
12:59I was, um, I was looking for a property, a villa that I'd seen online, and, um, I thought there
13:05might be somebody in to point me in the right direction, but no answer.
13:09You were looking for a house for sale?
13:12After dark?
13:13Yes.
13:14I mean, it was supposed to have beautiful sunset views, and, um, well, I'm looking to buy out here.
13:20Yeah.
13:20Remote accounting, less stress.
13:22So you were at the victim's villa, but you never interacted with him?
13:26No.
13:27No, absolutely not.
13:28What about in the morning?
13:31It was definitely my moped that was seen.
13:34Our witnesses didn't get a registration, but the description matches.
13:38And the rider was wearing a black top.
13:43Okay, so I can see now why you might think it was me, but it wasn't.
13:48So it was just coincidence.
13:50Someone else was there this morning, dressed just like you, on a similar white moped, outside the same property you
13:57were visiting last night.
13:59Must be.
14:01That's bizarre, isn't it?
14:03But I can assure you detectives that I was nowhere near that house.
14:07Then where were you 10.30 when the shooting happened?
14:11Well, in coconut water.
14:12There's a street bender, and I'd stopped to make a work call.
14:16Felt thirsty, and this was definitely 10.30.
14:19Where was this?
14:20Crescent Cove.
14:23The opposite side of the island to the crime scene. Convenient.
14:28Convenient?
14:29Now, look, you've got the wrong person.
14:31I didn't shoot anyone. Check my phone.
14:34We will.
14:36Thank you for your help.
14:38We'll be in touch if we need anything further.
14:41Well, the vendor confirms he served Craig this morning.
14:44And he was on his phone the whole time, that's why I remembers him.
14:48Craig's client also confirms they spoke at 15.30 UK time, which is 10.30 here.
14:54They spoke for five minutes, and it all tallies with the call log on Craig's phone.
14:58But it has to be Craig that shot Henry Ashby.
15:01His clothing was identified, and the bike, and he was outside Henry's the night before.
15:07And you saw what it was like at the villa. It was all over the place.
15:09But he has an alibi for the time of the murder, sir.
15:12So if it was him, then how did he do it?
15:30Craig's definitely holding back.
15:32So if we don't yet know how he managed to shoot Henry Ashby, let's focus on his motive.
15:37Why did he do it?
15:43Sergeant Fletcher, what have you got for us?
15:46Inspector, bit of a development at Henry's. Seems there's a little more to him than we first thought.
15:57A spy. I'm telling you, he has to be a spy.
16:01Henry was definitely mixed up in something murky. Surveillance perhaps?
16:05A spy. A hundred percent. I'm talking code names. You know? Drop-off locations. Secret hand shares.
16:13Exploding pens.
16:13His military records came in. Henry rose through the ranks quickly before a voluntary discharge fifteen years ago.
16:22Then, nothing. No paper trail, no fixed address. Vanished. Until... Saint Marie.
16:29What about his phone?
16:30Zero phone calls. The man had nobody checking in. I mean, it's like you just totally ghosted life.
16:37And his laptop? Locked down tight. But I've asked the lab and they're checking it out.
16:43But his bank account? Stucked. Living off-grid with serious money behind him.
16:49Makes you wonder who or what was he running from.
16:53I've got a mate in Organised Crime Command. I'll give her a call, see if what we've found triggers anything
16:58her end.
16:59But let's keep looking into Craig Pinnock. Now we know that the victim isn't what he seems.
17:05There must be a reason Craig wanted him dead.
17:09It's time we headed over to the Commissioner's launch. Ready, sir?
17:12Uh, I'll catch you up. I've got this phone call to make first.
17:16Okay. See you there.
17:21Don't be late.
17:28You know, Commissioner asked us to say a few words about what Saint Marie means to us.
17:34And I was like, man, I mean, where do I start, you know?
17:38So what did you go for?
17:40Officer Rose's top ten favourite places to fill your belly.
17:45Okay.
17:47Do you think that's quite what the Commissioner...
17:49Hmm?
17:51You know what? That is perfect.
17:56You're right.
17:59Big crowds.
18:01It tends to happen when you offer free snacks.
18:04Inspector's cutting it fine. We want to be in his booths when he arrives.
18:10It's a wonderful turnout, don't you think?
18:13Hi.
18:14What's all the phone calls?
18:17If only every idea came together so smoothly.
18:22I should have escorted him here myself.
18:26Mervyn made a commitment, no?
18:29Focus on your speech.
18:32And at number two, we have the grill bar.
18:36You know the one with the sweet, sweet curry goat?
18:38The one where the chef sings love songs that he cooks.
18:42I'm actually thinking about starting my own food tour.
18:46So at the end, all pretend best that we can speak.
18:49Thank you, thank you, thank you for that enthusiasm.
18:55Officer Rose, and thank you for coming.
19:00Thank you, everyone.
19:02Tonight is a new beginning.
19:05Since returning to Saint Marie, I have been made aware that I need to recommit.
19:14To reassure you that this island still matters to me.
19:23To us.
19:25And you.
19:27Its people matter even more.
19:30This is the first step.
19:32Rebuilding trust.
19:34Strengthening the relationship between myself and my team.
19:40And you.
19:41The people we serve.
19:47No answer.
19:50We will proceed with a Q and A as planned.
19:55First questions, please.
19:57Yes, I've got a question.
19:59Why did the detective not bother showing up?
20:03Um.
20:05Well.
20:07Um.
20:09Um, actually, Commissioner.
20:11Um.
20:12Can I take this one?
20:14Of course.
20:27D.I. Wilson's not here because he's working on a murder case.
20:33And knowing him, he's probably so deep into it, he hasn't realized the time.
20:41But that's because he cares about his work.
20:44All of us standing here care so much about what we do.
20:49It's, it's, it's not just about solving crimes.
20:52It's about doing it right.
20:54And that's why we show up.
20:57Because it's not just what we do, it's, it's who we are.
21:12Well done.
21:15Well done.
21:16Well done.
21:33Next question.
21:33The commissioner left ten minutes ago and he said he's very disappointed but not surprised.
21:38Direct quotes.
21:39Stop talking!
21:41Look, I've got some major intel on our victim.
21:44All right?
21:44I mean, it all makes total sense now.
21:46The military background, the fake passports, living off grid.
21:50I mean, I should have worked this out before.
21:52Worked out what?
21:53He was a spy.
21:54No, Officer Rose.
21:56Henry Ashby was a professional hit man.
22:03So, multiple passports were found in the victim's house.
22:07I don't believe it.
22:09Why is it so hard to get a book out of the library?
22:11Inspector.
22:12You do still work here?
22:14Yeah.
22:15Commissioner, look, I'm sorry about last night but I was doing what I thought was best for the case.
22:21Disappearing in the name of duty is still disappearing.
22:25I made my expectations very clear.
22:29Yes, Commissioner, I'm sorry it won't happen again.
22:31You might also offer thanks to DS Thomas, who covered for your absence with great aplomb.
22:40Thank you, DS Thomas.
22:42Right, are we done?
22:44No.
22:45You will make amends with some community outreach work.
22:50Mrs Desiree, one of our most senior residents, was in attendance last night.
22:56She told me she was in need of a little police assistance.
23:00I said would pay her a visit.
23:05That is her address.
23:10Oh.
23:12A tale of two cities.
23:14Have you read it before?
23:16I know, but I used to work weekends with a guy who ran Dickens tours.
23:21Like all his best, redemption, hope, the destructive nature of revenge.
23:27Not a million miles from this case.
23:29Ah, DS Thomas was updating me.
23:32Your victim is a hitman.
23:34Yeah, organised crime linked Henry Ashby to a shelled case.
23:38He's the prime suspect in a historic hit job in Putney, made to look like a break-in.
23:44The victim was a shop owner with ties to loan sharks.
23:46Henry made it look like a break-in?
23:49The theory goes, Henry's the guy you call in when things get heavy.
23:52There's other suspected hits, but the evidence is non-existent.
23:55I went through the victim's bank statements, Commissioner.
23:58There were years of large cash deposits.
24:01No employer, just drops.
24:03Why did they never catch him?
24:04I expect because he was good at his job.
24:06All they had on the guy was some grainy CCTV footage and the description of a very distinctive tattoo.
24:12Pegasus!
24:13Look, I still feel like I've seen that tattoo somewhere before, you know.
24:17I'm just not sure where.
24:22So, I did some digging into our suspect, Craig Pinnock.
24:27Turns out, Craig's a widower.
24:30This was his wife, Lucy Pinnock, died ten years ago on the 2nd of July.
24:35So?
24:36She was shot. A home-breaking gone wrong.
24:40No suspect, no motive, just a robbery-turned-fatal.
24:44Two robberies, two deaths, same MO.
24:47Well, that's no coincidence.
24:49And here, three days before Lucy's death, the last cash drop.
24:54So, if Henry was a contract killer and Lucy Pinnock was one of his last jobs, then...
25:01Craig Pinnock suddenly has really good motive to want Henry Ashby dead.
25:09They were trying to scare me.
25:11Who was?
25:12Loan sharks.
25:14I'd started gambling and, um, told myself I could get her under control, but I owed so much money.
25:21And they were starting to hound me.
25:22And when they came to collect what you owed them, you didn't have it.
25:25And your wife was collateral.
25:29I hate myself every day for what they did to her.
25:35For what I caused.
25:36But you didn't tell the police.
25:38Must have been eating you up alive inside.
25:41The shame.
25:42The guilt. The rage.
25:44And so you decided you'd hunt down Henry Ashby yourself.
25:47I knew that the police would never find him.
25:50Because they didn't know the full truth.
25:52That it was a professional hit.
25:54Not an easy job.
25:56I mean, the trail was cold, wasn't it? For years.
25:59The killer was hiding out here, on St. Marie.
26:03How did you find Henry?
26:06Well, the people I owed money to, I did some digging.
26:09Eventually, I found out who they paid to do their dirty work.
26:13So, you knew exactly who Henry was.
26:17And you came anyway.
26:20If there was a chance, I could look him in the eye.
26:23Get him to answer for what he did.
26:24So, revenge.
26:25That was your plan.
26:27You knew exactly whose house you were at that night.
26:29Okay, look, I admit.
26:31I went there to confront him.
26:32But I never laid eyes on him.
26:34He wasn't there.
26:35You went back the next morning to finish the job.
26:37No.
26:38I've already told you this.
26:39I was on the other side of the island.
26:41Look, whoever went there that morning to shoot him,
26:44it was someone else.
26:44It wasn't me.
26:54Something wrong, Officer Rose?
26:56Or are you just exercising your thumb muscles?
26:58Hey, I'm working, actually.
27:00I had to scroll through this group chat to find this video.
27:02Although I did briefly get sidetracked by this chicken-wearing carnival police.
27:06Please, beat it around the bush some more, Officer Rose.
27:08Sir, that tattoo.
27:10You know how I thought I recognised it from somewhere?
27:12Boom.
27:13Three months ago.
27:15Henry saved a woman who was caught up in a riptide out at Turtle Bay.
27:19He did no photos, no press.
27:22But somebody filmed it and the video went viral.
27:25The man went in twice.
27:28Once for the old lady.
27:31Once for the little dog.
27:32I printed these off.
27:34You can see the Pegasus tattoo in boat.
27:35So we have a trained assassin who saves poodles in his spare time.
27:39But it means literally anybody looking for Henry Ashby
27:44could have seen that video and come to the island for revenge.
27:48All right, so maybe someone else on a white moped wearing a black top
27:54did go to Henry Ashby's place that morning and shoot him.
27:58Okay, we're gonna have to check all routes to the woods behind Henry's place
28:01and any road cameras along the way.
28:04We should also look into who else knew Henry.
28:07Mm-hmm.
28:08Got it.
28:21It's me.
28:26The police are gonna wanna talk to me.
28:29But I don't want you to worry.
28:38Still no jaya with the moped?
28:40No sign of anyone else on a white bike who could have possibly shot Henry.
28:45What about Fisherman's Way?
28:47Hey, it's the fastest route to the house.
28:49The only camera along there has been busted for weeks.
28:52So it's the perfect time for lunch.
28:54Hey, hey.
28:54Cold case.
28:55Hot prawns.
28:57No, seriously, you have to try one of these.
28:59Captain Crustacean's Fire Cracker Prawns.
29:02But thank you.
29:03But if you want real flavour, ooh, you got to go to Old Man Baptiste behind the cricket ground.
29:10My father used to take us after school. Baptiste had this secret marinade.
29:15Legendary.
29:15Mm.
29:17All right.
29:17Take your time.
29:18They're spicy.
29:23My man's got a little bit of a kick.
29:27Oh, are you okay?
29:29All right.
29:30If we're speedy, we'll make it to Old Man Baptiste before he shots.
29:34Me need milk.
29:39Interesting.
29:48Listen, I didn't get to say this properly before, but thank you for covering for me last night.
29:56Whatever it was you did or said.
29:59That's okay, sir.
30:01I, uh, I know you're maybe not feeling like yourself at the moment.
30:08Yeah.
30:09Well, um, it's, uh, it's not been the best few weeks.
30:14Finding her brother, then him going away again.
30:17But, you know, mate, I don't let those things get to me, right?
30:22Right.
30:23No.
30:24Sure you don't.
30:26What?
30:27Well, we haven't seen you much in the last week, sir.
30:34All you do is stay in your shack and watch football.
30:37I like football.
30:39I know.
30:40But it's a lot of football.
30:44Yeah?
30:45Well, there's a lot of games.
30:47Listen, let's just focus on the case.
30:50What have you got?
30:52Well, actually, those weekly shopping trips Henry used to take, he was pulling out $500 like clockwork.
31:01That's some major coinage for groceries.
31:05And guess who was depositing the exact same amount into their account the same day every week?
31:11Fleur.
31:12Baxter.
31:15Henry was bankrolling Fleur's gardener?
31:18Why?
31:19Well, doesn't look like it was for fertilizer.
31:25Hush money.
31:26Maybe.
31:28But the payment stopped.
31:30One was due Friday.
31:32Never came.
31:34And a couple of days later, Henry's dead.
31:43It's true.
31:49Henry gave me money.
31:52But you never thought to mention it?
31:56Why was he paying you?
31:59He said it wasn't charity.
32:01He had money sitting there, doing nothing.
32:04We're not talking about a few bob here, Mr. Turton.
32:07This is thousands.
32:09It sounds a lot to me like leverage.
32:12Extortion.
32:13No, no, no.
32:13That's not what it was.
32:14I would never.
32:15He stops paying you.
32:16You get angry.
32:17Decide to punish him.
32:18And that's why you-
32:19That's my son.
32:20Rio.
32:22He was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma.
32:26He got it early, but he still turned everything upside down.
32:30The bills, the waiting, trying to keep things normal for him.
32:34I was barely holding it together.
32:37So then Henry started helping, paying for treatments.
32:40Wouldn't take no for an answer.
32:42And last week, Rio got the all clear.
32:47And the final thing Henry said to me was that he didn't want a penny back.
32:58Do you get the sense Henry was trying to atone for his actions?
33:03Saving that woman and her dog?
33:05Paying for Baxter's kids' healthcare?
33:07I mean, for a man who killed for a living, he seemed to suddenly find a moral code in life.
33:13Detectives.
33:15Sorry.
33:16There's something I need to tell you.
33:19I wasn't sure whether to say anything.
33:21Fleur's been great to me, really.
33:24But...
33:25It was a few weeks ago.
33:28Fleur was pretty out of it.
33:30I tried to help her out of the sun and-
33:33Men like him always think they can get away with it.
33:37She started muttering about Henry.
33:40She wasn't making a lot of sense.
33:42I doubt she meant anything by it.
33:44But it's been playing on my mind.
33:49I told you there was a shark caught along Fisherman's Way.
33:52I'm pretty sure you broke the stone barrier.
33:54No.
33:56No.
33:59Thank you for the memories.
34:01Oh, I'll never know if it lived up to his hype.
34:07Sorry, Sarge.
34:07Makes me realise how long I've been away from St. Marie.
34:11Come back expecting everything to be the same.
34:15But things change, right?
34:17You don't regret coming back, do you, Sarge?
34:19No.
34:20I couldn't stay in Jamaica anymore.
34:22It was right to leave.
34:26Do you miss him?
34:29Your ex?
34:30No.
34:32It just doesn't feel the same here, you know?
34:35That's all.
34:37Getting used to it.
34:43Right, come on.
34:44Let's go back to the station.
35:08Let's try the boat.
35:14Miss Edwards.
35:16Oh, hello.
35:18Apologies for the mess.
35:23They come as a pair, Inspector.
35:26Not really my taste, to be honest.
35:29What he really means is, he's not much of an arts collector.
35:36Please, they're fragile.
35:38Like your relationship with Henry?
35:40Yeah, your gardener told us about your drunken threats.
35:44Who knew I'd hired Chatty Cathy?
35:47What did you mean when you said, men like him always get away with it?
35:54He tried it on with me, didn't like being rejected.
35:57It sounded like you wanted to punish him for more than just making a pass at you.
36:03What aren't you telling us, Miss Edwards?
36:07All I'm guilty of, detectives, is bruising Henry's delicate ego.
36:12I don't believe you.
36:14I think you knew exactly who he was.
36:16Didn't you?
36:17I haven't the foggiest idea what you're talking about.
36:20I saw someone on a moped outside Henry's place.
36:23That's who killed him.
36:24Did you ever catch them, Inspector?
36:26I'd sleep much better knowing you did.
36:29Us too.
36:31We'll be in touch.
36:41Fleur's story isn't sitting right with me.
36:44But she has an alibi.
36:45Baxter was with her in her house when Henry Ashby was shot.
36:49And Baxter's account checks out.
36:51I spoke to the hospital.
36:53Everything he said about his son real is true.
36:56Which brings us back to Craig Pinnock,
36:58who has motive coming out of his ears, but he also has an alibi for the murder.
37:02So, what you're saying is, the three people who could have shot Henry Ashby
37:07couldn't have shot Henry Ashby?
37:09Exactly that.
37:10Inspector, one laptop, lab fresh, fully dead.
37:15That's what he heard said.
37:15No, that's more like it.
37:17I don't think so, Inspector.
37:18You have somewhere to be, if you haven't forgotten, which I sense you have.
37:24Mrs. Desiree, how about I give you a lift there?
37:27Make sure you don't get lost.
37:29Maybe I should take this.
37:38Good luck, Inspector.
37:40Inspector!
37:44I bump into Mrs. Desiree in church every now and then.
37:51She makes the most superb ginger cake.
37:55Good for her.
37:57You seem confused, Inspector.
38:00Well, it's just that I thought you said she needed police assistance.
38:05Fixing her gate, that's a handyman's job.
38:08Perhaps.
38:10But if you hadn't realised the reason I asked you to do this
38:15was in the hope that you might learn something from it.
38:20Yeah.
38:21Yeah, I figured as much.
38:22Going that extra mile for the community.
38:24Improving police relationships, et cetera, et cetera.
38:28Actually, this was more about you than my community initiative.
38:35Me?
38:36Inspector, I know the last week or so has been tough on you
38:40and might have had you even thinking about why you stayed on,
38:45on this island.
38:48Maybe.
38:50Look, I'm not going to lie, okay?
38:52Now that Solomon and I have parted ways,
38:55yeah, it has had me wondering.
38:57Which is perfectly understandable.
39:01But, hiding away, avoiding people,
39:06not being part of this island's life,
39:09you're missing out.
39:11Yeah, yeah, I hear you.
39:13But, you know, fixing some old lady's gate,
39:17you really think that's the answer?
39:18Tea, Commissioner?
39:19Oh, yes.
39:21I'll be right with you.
39:25In answer to your question,
39:29I suppose you'll find out, Inspector.
39:38Don't I get any iced tea?
39:47Speed in tickets.
39:50Where'd them catch you?
39:51Fisherman's way.
39:52Must have been when we were going to Old Man Baptiste.
39:55I thought you said that camera was broken.
39:58It's been taped off for months.
40:05If it's working, then maybe that's the route the killer took.
40:09Let's go.
40:15Inspector.
40:20At Mrs Desiree's gate bit back.
40:23Ah.
40:24So,
40:27spent half the night going through Henry's laptop.
40:30He was researching Fleur, social media,
40:33old exhibitions, personal records.
40:36It doesn't sound like a crush.
40:37No.
40:38He was looking for a connection.
40:39And now,
40:41I know to what.
40:44Fleur and Lucy Pinnock were housemates.
40:48Same university.
40:49Seemed super close.
40:51Lucy was using her maiden name.
40:54So, three months ago,
40:55Fleur moves in next door to the man who killed her best friend,
40:59and now he's dead.
41:03She was like her sister.
41:06Must have been a shock when she died.
41:10It didn't make sense.
41:12A robbery.
41:14Nothing really taken.
41:15And she'd never be caught up in anything dangerous.
41:18So, what did you do?
41:20The day before it happened,
41:24Lucy told me she thought a man was following her.
41:27It spooked her.
41:28She...
41:29She described him, his height, his build.
41:34Said he had a tattoo, a winged horse on his forearm.
41:37I told the police, they dropped it.
41:40But you never forgot.
41:42And then, years later, you saw a news story.
41:47Henry leaving a woman and her dog.
41:49All of a sudden, there he was.
41:52So, you tracked him down to St. Marie,
41:55casually moved in next door and then made nice.
41:57I wanted to understand how someone like that could keep on living.
42:02And when you couldn't understand, you killed him?
42:04In case you'd forgotten, Inspector, I was making lemonade.
42:08Something I was about to offer you, but I'm thinking better of it.
42:11Hang on, so you're telling me the man who robbed Lucy of her life
42:14was on your doorstep and you did zilch?
42:16Of course I wanted him to pay.
42:19To see the shame in his eyes when he realised I knew who he was,
42:23what he'd done.
42:24But I never got the chance.
42:26I didn't kill him.
42:28Lucy's husband is out here too.
42:32Craig's on St. Marie.
42:33Bit of a coincidence, don't you think?
42:35You two turning up on the same island?
42:39You knew he was here.
42:42Okay.
42:45The night before Henry died, I did see someone on a moped outside his house.
42:51It looked like Craig.
42:53My heart almost stopped.
42:55I told myself, if it was him, whatever he was up to, I wanted nothing to do with it.
43:03And then Henry turned up dead.
43:06I gave you the number plate.
43:09Hoping and praying that I was mistaken.
43:12And that Craig wasn't involved.
43:18He's at the centre of everything.
43:20Just never where we need him to be.
43:22Inspector, you're going to want to see this.
43:24But we just checked the speed camera on Fisherman's Way and it caught something.
43:30Okay.
43:31So this is about six minutes away from the victim's house.
43:3310.21 the morning of the murder.
43:36Just wait for it.
43:38Boom! Right there, sir.
43:39Guy in a blacktop on a white moped with the same registration plate as the one Craig Pinock hired.
43:44So Craig Pinock did it.
43:45We now know he drove to the victim's house at the time of the murder.
43:50Wait.
43:51Why did the street vendor say he was buying coconut water when it happened?
43:58Okay.
43:59Let's play this out.
44:01DS Thomas, you be the victim.
44:02Over there, please.
44:04Officer Rose, you be Craig.
44:06Just there.
44:07And Sergeant Fletcher, you be the vendor.
44:09Right.
44:10Phone.
44:13Okay.
44:14Go.
44:14Yes, bro.
44:15Just grabbing a coconut water now, innit?
44:18Yeah.
44:18I'll send over them figures soon.
44:21Definitely not going to shoot nobody today.
44:23Remind me never to take your undercover.
44:27That's it.
44:29It's simple.
44:30Craig wasn't actually on a call.
44:32He was pretending like Officer Rose was just now.
44:35He made sure he was seen and heard so that when we asked the vendor...
44:39We were told the story Craig wanted us to hear, not the truth.
44:43The vendor never knew the time, only that Craig was on the phone.
44:49Confirmation bias.
44:50Exactly.
44:50The real call was made at 10.30, but from somewhere else.
44:55Craig shot Henry.
44:56Rode a short distance.
44:58Made the call as planned at 10.30.
45:00Finally, his alibi has crumbled.
45:05I'm telling you, I'm innocent.
45:07You lied about your alibi and they want us to believe you.
45:11Okay.
45:11Yes.
45:12I haven't been telling the truth, but...
45:15Come on, please.
45:16You have to give me one more chance.
45:1830 seconds.
45:20Okay.
45:21So, yes, I went to Henry's house and I took a gun.
45:25I was working myself up to killing him, okay?
45:28I admit it.
45:29But then I heard a gunshot, okay?
45:31And I thought he'd see me.
45:32I thought maybe he was shooting at me.
45:34But I didn't stick around to find out.
45:36I just, I got on the moped and I went away and I didn't look back.
45:40And this gun, your gun, where is it now?
45:43Well, I chucked it in the sea.
45:45Look, I can show you exactly where.
45:48Please.
45:48You have to believe me.
45:50It wasn't me.
45:58I believe it.
45:59Even though he's repeatedly lied to us throughout this investigation.
46:04Yep.
46:04Even though he admits to being at the victim's house at the time of the murder.
46:08With a gun.
46:09And a motive.
46:10Yep.
46:11So, if you think he didn't know it, sir, then...
46:15Who did?
46:15Having a Scooby.
46:17Because it also can't be either of these.
46:18And I'll tell you what's really bugging me about all this.
46:22The victim's copy of this book was missing from his bookshelf.
46:25And it hasn't turned up anywhere during the investigation.
46:28So, where is it?
46:30Wait, you read the whole book in the last few days?
46:32Well, I just speed read it.
46:34So, what was the story about?
46:37Well, basically, it's about a guy who tries to make things right.
46:41And the only way he feels he can do that is if he...
46:45Whoa.
46:47Wait a minute.
46:50Because if you look at it that way, that changes the whole perspective on everything.
46:56A tale of two cities.
46:58Redemption.
46:59Hope.
47:00The destructive nature of revenge.
47:01Do you get the sense Henry was trying to atone for his actions?
47:05They were trying to scare me.
47:06Who was?
47:07Loan sharks.
47:07I'd started gambling, and I had so much money, and they were starting to hound me.
47:12It's my son.
47:13Real.
47:14He was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma.
47:17So then Henry started helping, paying for treatments.
47:20Wouldn't take no for an answer.
47:22If I have to read a book, I usually start at the last page first.
47:26So I have to start endings.
47:28Which would mean...
47:29You worked it out.
47:31I have.
47:32And if I'm right about all this, in a funny way, the answer's been there the whole time.
47:38The book?
47:39Yeah.
47:40I think I know where it might be.
47:41And that explains everything.
47:47Thanks, Charlie.
47:48Appreciate it.
47:52Ready, boss?
48:08Second time lucky, ya?
48:29A book.
48:34A book.
48:39And a bullet.
48:52Let's start with this, shall we?
48:55A tale of two cities.
48:57A story about redemption and sacrifice.
49:02And at the back of this book, Henry Ashby left a story of his own.
49:07The main character in this story, he dies in the end.
49:11But he gave up his life to atone for what he'd done.
49:16For a while, we were looking for a killer that was never there.
49:20Because Henry Ashby wasn't murdered.
49:23He took his own life.
49:27Henry's final words.
49:30A suicide note addressed to you, Miss Edwards, written in the back of the book.
49:34But also a confession to Lucy Pinnock's murder.
49:40But why would Henry take his own life?
49:44And why now?
49:46The past caught up with him.
49:50Fleur, you found the viral video, recognized Henry, and you shared it with Craig, didn't you?
49:55You finally found the man who murdered Lucy after all these years.
50:00But you didn't wait for Craig.
50:02You came out to Saint Marie alone.
50:04You conveniently moved in next door to Henry.
50:08All this to get closer to the man who killed Lucy.
50:12And those drunken threats you aimed at Henry that the gardener witnessed.
50:16Henry hadn't tried it on with you at all, had he?
50:18What was eating away at you was the thought that this man had got away with murdering your best friend.
50:25So you insisted Craig fly to Saint Marie.
50:30Henry was on to you, wasn't he?
50:33Something felt different.
50:35He seemed off with me, drove in silence.
50:39So you had to strike before he fled the island or did something even worse.
50:45And together, you orchestrated your revenge.
50:49The plan was simple.
50:51Craig, you would arrive at Henry's place just before 10.30.
50:55You both arranged your alibis.
50:57Fleur, you knew Baxter would be at yours for his shift.
51:01And Craig, you arranged a work call that you'd take at 10.30 after you shot Henry,
51:07then made out that you were buying coconut water at the same time.
51:11But then something unexpected happened, didn't it?
51:14Because Henry worked out what you had in store for him.
51:18Craig, when you sculpted out Henry's the night before his death,
51:21we believe Henry, as a trained killer, was watching you.
51:25Your actions, Craig, tipped Henry off that his time was up.
51:31The past, the guilt, it was all coming back to haunt him.
51:37And as a man who lived in control, he chose the only thing he felt he could still command,
51:42the ending to his own story.
51:47It's not the right way, but in his mind, it was the only option.
51:51So, sometime before 10.30 the following morning, Henry shot himself.
51:59Fleur, you must have been confused.
52:01Had Craig arrived early?
52:04But when you found the body, you also found the book.
52:09And inside it, something you weren't expecting.
52:14The truth, in a note left for you.
52:18And once you'd read it, you knew there and then that you couldn't let this die with him.
52:22So you proceeded to stage a crime scene to make it look like Henry had been murdered.
52:28You took his gun, the one thing he kept for protection, given his past.
52:32And you left the doors wide open.
52:34You even scattered mud from the garden.
52:37Before firing a second gunshot at 10.30 from your kitchen,
52:41breaking a plant pot and creating a false time of death.
52:47A second bullet from a second gunshot, which you recovered from your garden later that morning.
52:53All that was left was to steer us toward the right culprit.
52:58The moped number plate was smooth, but why go to all that trouble?
53:07Her death haunted me most.
53:10Usually they had it coming, but not her.
53:15You see, that's what's so heartbreaking about it, isn't it, Craig?
53:19Because Lucy was a real victim here.
53:23And it's just as I suspected.
53:26I spent my life following orders.
53:29But this one was the cruelest.
53:32Your friend was an innocent woman.
53:34And you should know the truth.
53:36The hit was commissioned by her own husband.
53:44You see, the order didn't come from faceless loan sharks, but from you.
53:49You're the reason she's dead.
53:52I'm sorry, you've got this all wrong.
53:54When will you finally stop lying?
53:57You played the grieving husband, seeking revenge, when all you really wanted was silence.
54:03You hired Henry Ashby, a professional hitman, to stage a botched armed robbery so you could cash in your wife's
54:10life insurance and pay off your gambling debts.
54:14You're the only one.
54:15Fleur, I assume you held on to these?
54:20The book?
54:22The gun?
54:23As your plan B?
54:25In case your plot to stitch up Craig was exposed?
54:29You framed him for Henry's murder because you couldn't go to the police without having to admit you and Craig
54:34planned to kill Henry.
54:36So, yeah.
54:39This confession will ensure Craig finally faces the murder charges for your best friend.
54:46However, I'm afraid your attempt to pervert the course of justice can't be overlooked.
54:53Craig Pinnock, I'm arresting you for conspiracies and murder.
55:01She loved you and you sentenced her to death.
55:06I hope it haunts you for the rest of your life.
55:28So, as soon as Mervyn arrives, we'll be ready to go.
55:32May I ask?
55:35I'm sure he'll be here, sir.
55:38So, Sarge, I did some digging and asking around.
55:44I got you this.
55:48Old Man Baptiste's secret recipe.
55:51As much as anyone could remember.
55:57Thought you might want to taste at home, you know?
55:59Hmm.
56:00I just need to learn how to cook now.
56:02Now this will really burn your eyebrows off your face.
56:08Sorry, sorry.
56:10Better late than never, Mervyn.
56:13Go and stand beside the Commissioner.
56:18Sorry I'm late, Commissioner.
56:20I had a visitor.
56:22Mrs. Desiree dropped by.
56:23She made me a cake, Lockie York.
56:27It's a nice cake as well.
56:30And yeah, I get it.
56:33Look out, not in.
56:36Right?
56:37Everyone's ready?
56:41Three, two, one.
56:46Smile?
56:52I got an accidental death by St. Vincent's Church, which is Seb's mother's church.
57:00You think it's suspicious?
57:02That's not possible.
57:03The church was all locked up from the inside.
57:05Nobody could get in our old.
57:07There is a dark secret that has been buried for too long, and it's time the truth came out.
57:12Your head is pinging around all over the place.
57:14But Sarge, I need to show you more.
57:16But you're not helping right now.
57:18Not one person is who I thought they were, but I never thought you would be one of them.
57:44But along one person, deal you never thought.
57:49Because it is.
57:49And that of you, have been new.
57:50It's too close to you.
57:50And now all learning 2 seems.
57:51Despite theonomy and 뭘 they're doing,
57:51But it normally don't spend European ideas or any more Quizá but if not be a game changer.
57:51You do well.
