00:00Give me a tip, got a tip? Got any pocket money? Come on, give me a tip. Hey, no tip, no pack.
00:23It's all right girls, go on. Thank you. Oi, hey, who do you think you are?
00:28Someone who doesn't believe in demanding money from kids. What I do is a skill. Stamina, itchy nose, sore neck, a bloody seagull landed on me last week.
00:38And yet you'll break character to scam a couple of kids out of 50 cents.
00:42Well if you're so noble, why don't you tip me on their behalf? Here's a tip, be a better statue.
00:51How's your morning going? Fine. Kind of looks like you're arguing with a statue.
00:56So just another Thursday, man.
01:00Lawyer, Nick Dunbar-Jones. He was found dead in a recycling bin outside a bar called the Grosvenor.
01:07Fell from the balcony. Died on impact. High levels of intoxication.
01:13This doesn't look non-accidental.
01:16See those papers he's lying on? Discarded answer sheets from the pub quiz held at the Grosvenor that night.
01:21Still waiting?
01:22This particular answer sheet was found in Nick's mouth. It's the Sudden Death Round answer sheet.
01:29Stop.
01:31Well that's a statement of ever I saw. Any DNA evidence?
01:35None. Just a few dark red cotton fibres. We're still testing.
01:40Here we have the top two inches. Nick's trivia team.
01:44These beautiful people are a trivia team. Wait a minute. I know that guy.
01:51I figured it's always nice to reconnect with old enemies, right?
01:54Back so well. So he's not an enemy. He's just a bloody pest.
01:58Well he and his team were seen fighting with Nick.
02:01After the quiz, just before he died, these people threatened lawyers and letters from members of parliament every time I try to get a straight answer out of them.
02:08Just take a look for me.
02:09All right. I'll take a look. One look. But if Baxter Wells takes this as some kind of encouragement, I'm coming for you.
02:20Fair enough.
02:20This is unlike any quiz night that I've ever been to.
02:36I wouldn't know. I've never been to one.
02:38Well you've never... No, of course you haven't.
02:41Well this is more like a glam party with some questions thrown in.
02:44And I'll tell you what. No one else in the room that night was upset that the top two inches lost.
02:49Because?
02:50They always won. Like always.
02:53And some of these photos are pretty obnoxious.
02:55We've got Elliot Griggs, cosmetic surgeon to the rich and gorgeous looking to turn back time.
03:01Mm-hmm.
03:01Corey Michelle Sage. She owns that chain of pharmacies with the really annoying TV ads.
03:07Oh yeah.
03:07And your bestie, former real estate agent turned aspiring property tycoon, Baxter Wells.
03:14I'm assuming they all have alibis?
03:16Well they all went home alone to their separate homes where they all live alone.
03:21There's no husbands, wives, partners to back it up?
03:25Uh, divorced, single and sliding into my DMs every month with such regularity.
03:30I think he has a calendar alert.
03:33And this is the paper that was stuffed into Nick's mouth?
03:36Along with some dark red cotton fibres.
03:40Now the answers are written in Nick's own handwriting.
03:43He choked on his own words.
03:46It's called the sudden death round because if you get one answer wrong, you're dead.
03:50And I'm guessing one out of ten is not a score that wins you all the chocolates.
03:53Mm-mm.
03:57Someone's a sore loser.
04:00According to Harry, they shut down the quiz for a couple of months out of respect.
04:08They're kicking it off again tonight to remember poor Nick Dunbar Jones.
04:12Which means all our key suspects will be in one place.
04:14For the first time since the funeral.
04:17The place is owned and operated by Lydia Redfern.
04:21Should I know who that is?
04:22She's the glamorous face of hospital in this town.
04:24She inherited the grove no year ago when her husband passed away.
04:28And is that her there now?
04:30Bingo.
04:30Our ticket into the game.
04:41Yorah.
04:42You looking into doing us for lunch?
04:44Uh, actually we were hoping to score a table for the quiz tonight.
04:47Oh, I'm sorry.
04:48We're fully booked.
04:49Oh, no, that's a shame.
04:50I've heard it's meant to be the best quiz in town.
04:52It is.
04:53It's fully booked.
04:54Lydia.
04:54Alexa Crowe.
04:57Oh.
04:58We haven't met, but I know of you through lovely Nick Dunbar Jones.
05:01God, such a tragedy.
05:03Yes.
05:04Yes, it was.
05:05Sorry, you knew Nick?
05:07Through work.
05:07And I heard that you were throwing a special event for him.
05:11He did love a good trivia night.
05:14He certainly did.
05:15Unfortunately, it's all booked.
05:17Oh, um, Fletcher?
05:19I'm sure we can fit in a small team in the corner.
05:24Oh, corner's great.
05:26Fletcher will sign you up.
05:28Thank you, Lydia.
05:29See you later tonight.
05:30Team name?
05:33That is a good question.
05:46You named our team what?
05:48It was all I could think of.
05:49But there's one small problem.
05:51According to the very serious bloke at the bar,
05:53we need at least three people to entertain.
05:55Your usuals?
05:57Hey, Reuben.
05:58What's the smallest state in America?
06:01Um, it's Rhode Island.
06:04Reuben, you're in.
06:05In what?
06:06Because I'm busy that day, all night.
06:08He'll say yes.
06:09He will.
06:10Is this anything to do with murder?
06:11Calm down.
06:12It's a pub quiz, Reuben.
06:13It's a trivia night.
06:15Yeah.
06:16No.
06:17I think you'll find that the correct answer in this round is yeah.
06:28Swanky crow?
06:36Okay, keep a low profile.
06:37I need to do some digging.
06:38Wait.
06:40Begin.
06:41Alexa crow.
06:43My favorite detective.
06:45You were saying low profile?
06:47I had to listen.
06:48Back to the owls.
06:49How unexpected to see you here.
06:53Ah, you couldn't stay away, huh?
06:54Mm-hmm.
06:55Can I buy you a drink?
06:56Great idea.
06:57Let's go.
06:58I think we both know why you're here, Detective Alexa.
07:01You know, Nick, he is a good guy.
07:03Your secret's safe for me.
07:04That's very comforting.
07:05So, uh, I'm no suspect, right?
07:07I think that our shared history proves I'm a murderer.
07:10I'll keep that in mind.
07:12So, uh, who do you like for it?
07:14Oh, tell me it's Corey.
07:15I mean, she's a mate.
07:17But she is also about as sketchy as a $3 night, you know?
07:20Whoa.
07:21I need you to be cool, all right?
07:24You don't know me.
07:25Sure.
07:26Like I said, you're a secret safe for me.
07:30What?
07:32What are you looking at?
07:33It's a nice ties, all.
07:35What colour do you call that, burgundy?
07:37Mm-hmm.
07:37Maroon.
07:39Yeah, it's my lucky tie.
07:40Sold my first penthouse apartment wearing this bad boy.
07:42So you wear it to all the trivia nights?
07:45Sorry, why are you asking?
07:46Did you come here for the trivia back, sir, or the network?
07:51Ah, Team Texas pretty seriously, actually.
07:54And, yeah, Grosvenor's got some good prizes.
07:56$200 bar tab, pretty standard.
07:58Yeah, and the $18,000 tolls I've got running on the...
08:00Writing on the, uh, yeah, never mind.
08:03Who's we?
08:05Your team?
08:06Are you upping the stakes, or is it something else?
08:10Yeah, I forgot how intense you could be.
08:12Only when I feel like someone's hiding something from me.
08:15What, you just...
08:16You just said I'm not a suspect.
08:18No, I didn't.
08:19You did.
08:19To be honest, Baxter, I'm undecided.
08:32You all right?
08:33Oh, I was looking for the restrooms.
08:35Oh, you walked right past them.
08:37Here.
08:40Well, come on.
08:41Don't take too long.
08:42Fun and games are about to begin.
08:50Hey.
08:50She out of heads, really?
08:53So, Ruben, this is Baxter.
08:55He'll be joining our team tonight.
08:57Doesn't Baxter have his own team?
08:59Perhaps I prefer the company, yeah.
09:01So, according to Baxter, there was a bet amongst his former team members.
09:05The prize?
09:07Lydia Redford.
09:08Yeah, well, it all started when Nick asked how long after her husband died he should wait to ask her out.
09:13Oh, all class.
09:14Yeah, and then Elliot said he wanted to ask her out.
09:16And Corey, she starts boasting that she reckoned she could turn her.
09:21So they made a bet.
09:22Well, bet's an ugly word.
09:24Oh, sweepstakes.
09:26Which lucky punter would Lydia fall for next?
09:28Self-confidence is off the charts.
09:31And you were a part of that bet, too?
09:32Well, the thing is, I've just got so much respect for the ladies.
09:35Do you want me to show them the unsolicited DMs you've been sending me the last 18 months?
09:39Oh, actually, I'm not supposed to use our phones in here, just FYI, so maybe that back up.
09:44$80,000 to the lucky winner.
09:46Are you serious?
09:47And the heart of a recently widowed millionaire.
09:49You're making us sound like a bunch of monsters.
09:51Four monsters competing for money and love.
09:53And now one of them has been taken out of the game.
09:55And you know what that sounds like to me, Baxter?
09:58One very solid motive for murder.
10:02So, you have to wait for Lydia to make the first move.
10:15Oh, yeah, yeah.
10:16We're not creeps.
10:18And then, bam, you want to take the whole price.
10:20Mm-hmm.
10:20Mm-hmm.
10:21So the stakes are high, but who are they highest for?
10:23Well, we'll soon find out.
10:25Is Elliot with one team or two?
10:26No, friends, please.
10:28You get one warning.
10:29But the quiz hasn't even started.
10:30And here's Nils.
10:33Shall I finish this elsewhere?
10:35If you would be so good.
10:36Welcome.
10:37Welcome back to the Grosvenor.
10:39As we remember, our good friend, Nick.
10:44But it's also a night to celebrate his life.
10:47As we know, the guy loved his trivia.
10:50But first, a toast.
10:52To Nick.
10:53To Nick.
10:54Now, Nick also loved to travel.
10:59So, in his honour, the picture round tonight asks you to identify the country by each luxury resort.
11:07And that shouldn't be a problem for most of you.
11:11Okay, go now.
11:12And the last quote in Who Said It is,
11:30I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member.
11:34Ask what?
11:36Oh, Shakespeare.
11:37That's always one of the two of them.
11:39That's a hint.
11:40Scratch her, Max.
11:41That's right.
11:41Looks like he's got a secret lip.
11:44Yeah, he seems like a great guy.
11:46Is he like a work friend?
11:47Tell me about your little pals over there.
11:50Well, there's Elliot, a superstar surgeon complete with a God complex.
11:54He took a total bath during his divorce.
11:57Really?
11:58What about Corey?
11:59She's a little more sus, if you know what I mean.
12:01She's basically a glorified pharmacist peddling a trauma on TV to appeal to the normies.
12:06And how did you get wound up in this little group?
12:09Well, I actually got Corey into the Azure.
12:11The Azure?
12:12Yeah, that's where I currently reside.
12:14It's a new take on waterfront living with unencumbered views of the Watanata.
12:19You know, I could get you there in 25 minutes if you've had enough of all this.
12:23Let's go.
12:24Really?
12:25Talk to them.
12:26Then.
12:26Oh, oh.
12:28Yorra.
12:30Well, what a night this is.
12:32It's like all of LinkedIn in one room.
12:35I'm Alexa Crow.
12:37Bax has told me so much about you.
12:39Elliot.
12:40Oh, yes.
12:42Corey.
12:45So, word on the street is that you are the team to beat.
12:50We used to be.
12:52It's more about meeting up with friends, making new connections.
12:55Yeah, I totally get that.
12:56I mean, Lydia's got quite a thing going here, hasn't she?
13:01She's amazing.
13:02I mean, really sad about her husband dying last year and all, but what a catch for some lucky guy or girl.
13:10Well, we don't think about it that way.
13:14No, I didn't.
13:16I mean, that's so crass.
13:17I mean, clearly you're dealing with your own loss.
13:20Yeah.
13:21Yeah, we are.
13:22Yeah, Nick was a great guy.
13:25Certainly not the kind to stab you in the back the first chance he got anyway.
13:28Ouch.
13:31Anyway, have a good night.
13:34And you too.
13:38The next round will start in one minute.
13:41Okay.
13:43So, according to my research, Corey is doing fine.
13:46Well enough to afford primetime commercials on multiple channels every night anyway.
13:50But Dr. Creepy over there, he might be head-to-toe bespoke, but his bank account says he's head-to-toe at Mo Roque.
13:56A brutal divorce will do that, though.
13:58Yeah.
13:59Wait, there's one more thing.
14:00Lydia's dead husband, Winston, he is not as flush as I was expecting.
14:04I wonder if he has a history.
14:08Alts, you were warned.
14:10Come on.
14:11What, are you serious?
14:12Yes.
14:13No phones.
14:14I'll think of something.
14:22Shh.
14:23How many official languages are there in New Zealand?
14:28There's three on Māori.
14:30And English.
14:31There's three.
14:32No, well, that's two.
14:33English, Māori, two.
14:35And sign language.
14:36Right, Alexa.
14:37Right.
14:37Anything else?
14:39Yeah, there are 50 volcanic cones in Auckland.
14:41Yeah, yeah, 50.
14:43All right, if you could get your answer sheets over to Fletcher at the bar, please, while we take a break.
14:49I'm just going to be a sec.
14:50I'm going to play nice.
14:56Ah, what a great place.
14:58Great view.
15:00Yes, yes, yes.
15:01And a great evening.
15:03Even if a vibe's a little off.
15:07It's hard to grieve when you're trying to remember the names of all five Bennet sisters and pride and prejudice.
15:12Well, we all grieve in our own ways.
15:17Nick's friends seem particularly upset.
15:21Friends?
15:23Those three couldn't stand Nick.
15:25I mean, he wasn't perfect, I mean, he wasn't perfect, but he was decent, you know?
15:29A lawyer with a conscience.
15:32That lot just used him.
15:34All because none of them have a head for world history.
15:37Well, if they're so awful, how come you're so chummy with them, Lydia?
15:42Especially Corey.
15:43I'm the one who asked the questions, Alexa.
15:52How did you say you knew Nick?
15:54Well, it's Baxter, I know, really.
15:56We did sensitivity training a while back.
15:58You might want to ask for a refund.
16:01Excuse me.
16:09So I was thinking, all of the answer sheets get handed into the bar.
16:12So how did the victim end up with one stuffed into his mouth?
16:16According to bar staff, one of the team grabbed it back after they marked that round because it was a source of the argument.
16:23Yeah, he lost them the quiz.
16:25That flimsy motive for murder, I know.
16:27Don't worry, Harry, we're finding the stakes were a bit higher than the wrong answer at trivia night.
16:31I'm looking forward to hearing about it.
16:33Anything else you need from me?
16:35No idea. I've been kicked out. They thought I was cheating.
16:39So you and Alexa are being subtle as always, then?
16:41Of course we are, Harry. And don't worry, I'll blag my way back in.
16:44Yeah, I have no doubt.
16:46There you go. Now, I'm getting hints of pear and maybe an undercurrent of maybe citrus. How about you?
16:52This glass is chipped.
16:53And the answer to who said not all those who wander are lost...
16:58Definitely a cheering. Definitely a cheering.
17:00...is, of course, J.R.R. Tolkien.
17:03Ah, well...
17:04Yeah.
17:04All right, we're going to take another short break now. There are snacks in the dining room.
17:11Do you want me to get you a new glass, Lisa?
17:12Yeah, just water, please.
17:14I'll take one.
17:17Gosh, I thought he'd never leave. Alone at last.
17:20What kind of a lawyer was Nick Dunbarjana's? Family lawyer, by chance?
17:24Why?
17:25I'm just trying to connect the dots.
17:27You see, maybe he represented Elliot in the divorce, and maybe he didn't do a good job.
17:31Eh, incorrect.
17:32Maybe he represented the ex-wife.
17:36Correct.
17:37How do you do that?
17:39You see, there's motive right there.
17:41And in the sudden death round, a medical question, you took Nick's word over an actual medical practitioner.
17:47Well, Elliot must have been furious.
17:49Elliot's default motive is furious.
17:51And yet, you want me focusing on Corey and not him, because you're his property guy?
17:57You don't want to upset a buyer?
18:00You know what? I've tried to be nice, but I feel like you're just using me for information.
18:04Correct. Go on.
18:07You know what? I'm done. I'm out.
18:10Good luck on your own.
18:11Okay.
18:13Ed Sheeran.
18:14Hi.
18:26Um, look.
18:27Thank you. Thanks very much. It's... It's all right.
18:33Yes.
18:34Um, excuse me, Lydia.
18:46I've just finished on the phone with my elderly aunt in Australia.
18:49She was nervous about a doctor's appointment.
18:51I didn't realise about the no phones rule.
18:54When I saw it was her calling, I just had to answer.
18:56Fletcher asked you to leave.
18:58Yeah, I feel a bit silly, but, you know, she, um...
19:01She was recently diagnosed with a heart condition.
19:05Oh, I, uh, lost my husband to a heart attack out of the blue.
19:09I'm sorry.
19:11Look.
19:13Fletcher can be a bit of a stickler.
19:14He's ex-military, which can come in quite handy when the bars are out here.
19:19Please, come back in. I'll hospital out here.
19:31Oh, Elliot, don't make it too easy.
19:39How are the snacks?
19:41Average.
19:42Miss Groen.
19:43Yes.
19:44A reminder that your team must have at least three members.
19:48And I've been informed that Mr. Wells has left your team.
19:53To go back to his old team.
19:54We've only had two players all night.
19:57So what about them?
19:58Oh, don't worry, Reuben.
20:00I think our third has just arrived.
20:02Lydia?
20:04She was asked to leave.
20:05It's fine, Fletcher.
20:07She was cheating.
20:08She was using her phone.
20:09I was checking on my elderly aunt.
20:11Oh, really? Can you prove that?
20:13Fletcher, honestly.
20:14Apologies, but perhaps dear old aunt could wait till after the quiz.
20:20Absolutely.
20:21Come through.
20:36I think you and I should talk.
20:39Baxter told me what you've been saying about...
20:42Oh, really?
20:43Do you think I murdered Nick?
20:48You seem like the sort of guy who likes finer things in life, Elliot.
20:52And I think that Nick helped your ex-wife take a lot of them away.
20:56Well, Valencia filled his mind with rubbish.
21:00Nick cost you a fortune.
21:03And he damaged your ego and he wouldn't let you answer that medical question.
21:07And did you think that he stood a better chance with Lydia in that awful little bet you all came up with?
21:13Not all.
21:14It was Corey's idea.
21:15I think some of the fibres from that hanky will be a pretty decent match for the ones that ended up in Nick's mouth.
21:25Along with the wrong answer that was stuffed down his throat.
21:28These...
21:28These are life savers.
21:32They save lives.
21:33You're a cosmetic surgeon, Elliot.
21:36Look, even if I wanted Nick dead and I didn't, why would I risk him damaging these?
21:41I don't know.
21:41You tell me.
21:45Okay.
21:46Don't, don't, don't, just don't touch the hands.
21:49Okay.
21:55Definitely not our guy.
21:56Nick was attacked from the front.
21:58That guy's too scared of me to try anything face to face.
22:00Yeah, well, you are pretty scary.
22:03Oh.
22:04Hey, you know that whole Lydia's next love sweepstake?
22:07Apparently it was Corey's idea.
22:10Corey from the TV commercials.
22:13Why?
22:14Okay, I asked for some more details from Harry about Winston Redfern stuff.
22:19Heart attack.
22:20Yeah, out of the blue, Lydia said.
22:22But it was caused by an overdose of Afrazil.
22:25It's an injectable treatment for diabetes.
22:28And was Winston a diabetic?
22:29I'm thinking not.
22:30And double or nothing, what condition does Corey specifically mention in her commercials?
22:35And as a lifelong diabetic myself, I understand how important a trustworthy chemist is for you and your family.
22:42I see you at the table.
22:51Oh, I, you need some backup.
22:53Where's?
22:54Oh, yeah, just be careful.
23:00Evening, Corey.
23:01So, you're investigating what happened to Nick.
23:07I think we all know what happened to Nick.
23:09It's like someone shoved some quid answers down his throat and pushed him off a building.
23:15What I'm investigating is, was it you?
23:19Well, no, it was right.
23:22You're deranged.
23:23It's not very nice, Corey.
23:25Tell me about Winston Redfern, Lydia's husband.
23:28Yeah, I know who he is, thanks.
23:30Was he diabetic?
23:32Did you take the same medication as you?
23:34Did you share your medication with him that night?
23:37Just enough to kill him?
23:40Oh.
23:45Well, that was a bit OTT.
23:48You don't like where I was going with that?
23:57Oh, that ain't good.
23:58So, she threw her glass at the bathroom mirror.
24:09Well, at my head, really.
24:11And smashed the whole thing.
24:12What was she thinking?
24:13Don't worry, I'm fine.
24:15These bloody people, they come in here and think that they can just trash the place.
24:18Lydia, it's okay.
24:19I can deal with it.
24:20Fletcher, it's not okay.
24:21This was meant to be a special night.
24:24And now I've got punters hurling glassware and...
24:28I don't care who Corey is.
24:32She's out.
24:32Hey, no, don't kick her out.
24:35I mean, she's grieving and I can be a little insensitive.
24:39Well, insensitive how?
24:41Well, like you suggested, that training didn't really work for me.
24:44But, anyway, tonight is about remembering Nick, so let's just focus on that.
24:51I'll certainly be giving her an invoice for the mirror.
24:54Yeah, and the glass.
24:55Exactly.
24:58Gosh, you're good at this.
25:00Your nurse?
25:01Ambo?
25:03Combat medic.
25:04Oh, what made you trade that for a bartender?
25:07I thought there'd be less bloodshed.
25:11Look, this is pretty superficial.
25:13You just finish bandaging it and, uh, pop on a coke.
25:17Easy.
25:19Pretty eventful old trivia night at the Grove now, huh?
25:22How long have you been running these things?
25:24Ah, a couple of years.
25:27I write the questions, telly the schools, handle the team fees, but...
25:31Lydia's the real star.
25:33Mm-hmm.
25:34What about Corey?
25:36You must have spent a bit of time around her, huh?
25:40Oh, come on, I think I've earned an answer or two.
25:44Look, Nick could be a handful after he's had a drink or two, but Corey, she's the only one out of that whole group that I've ever actually been scared of.
25:52Whoa, whoa, what, what happened?
25:59Nothing, just an occupational hazard.
26:01Are you serious?
26:02I told you to be careful.
26:03Stop it.
26:04I was.
26:05I ducked fast.
26:06Alexa.
26:07Come on.
26:08No.
26:08It's just a little bit of shrapnel.
26:09I knew this was competitive, but oh my gosh.
26:12Now, for my dear departed Winston's favorite round, sports and games.
26:18Oh, kill me now.
26:19In poker, a dead man's hand consists of pairs of what?
26:25Two cards.
26:26This is innate.
26:28Hey, anything else about Corey Michelle?
26:30Aside from the violent tendencies you made?
26:33Talk about an alpha.
26:34She's ducks of her high school, New Zealand Business Award honoree.
26:37Doesn't like to lose.
26:39Her newspaper called her chain of pharmacies the second most successful in the country.
26:43She sued them for not saying that she was the most successful.
26:46I owe her a little payback.
26:50Ruben, another question for you.
26:52Yes?
26:52Someone picked up some pretty swanky candle holders from Lydia a bit before.
26:57Ouch.
26:58They have a ton of thing on Trade Me.
26:59Times must be tough.
27:00Can you find out how to?
27:03Well, the hospital grapevine.
27:05Can make a couple of calls.
27:06Yeah, just not at the table.
27:08You do not want to be kicked out.
27:09Oh.
27:10Next question.
27:12Michael Jordan wore what jersey number for the Chicago Bulls?
27:19From the lady at the bar.
27:26Cute.
27:27Thanks, I thought so.
27:28Who is the only New Zealand driver ever to be Formula One world champion?
27:35Bruce McLaren.
27:36Denny Hume.
27:38I like things that go fast.
27:41I bet you do.
27:43How was your wrist?
27:45I don't need to see.
27:46I just, um, I didn't like you inferring that I would do anything to upset Lydia.
27:53And of course now, I have upset Lydia.
27:57I offered to pay for the mirror, but...
28:00Why were you all fighting the night that Nick died?
28:03Because he was being a total arse.
28:05And he cost us a quiz.
28:07Right.
28:07The first loss ever for your team.
28:10You don't like coming second, do you?
28:12What was the arse behaviour about?
28:15Everything.
28:17But honestly, we all said some stuff and then we all went home.
28:20The end.
28:21So Nick's death had nothing to do with her.
28:24Read the room, hon.
28:26Everyone in here makes everything a competition.
28:29Does Lydia know about the sweepstakes?
28:32Nick was going to tell her the night he died.
28:35But he would have made it sound sleazy, which it wasn't.
28:39Those three idiots thinking they're going to be the next Mr. Redfern.
28:42As opposed to you, who's going to be the next Mrs.
28:48You know, Lydia and I have a connection.
28:51And you didn't want Nick to destroy that.
28:54Look, what do I have to do to prove to you that you're wrong?
28:58Come with me, hon.
29:08Really?
29:09A bathroom hooker?
29:10I mean, I'm not opposed.
29:12Want to see the damage?
29:14I'll just take this bandage off.
29:20Okay, just breathe.
29:22Breathe.
29:26God, you really can't stand blood, can you?
29:30Mm-mm.
29:31How are you with needles?
29:33Not good.
29:34Not for a diabetic.
29:37Do you have a pump or something?
29:38I do now.
29:39As a kid, I had to go to the GP every time I needed to get a shot of insulin, which was every single day.
29:45Just the thought of injecting Winston or what happened to Nick, just...
29:50Well, that all makes sense, but it's hardly definitive.
29:53There was no blood when Nick died.
29:55I was with someone the night the police say he was killed.
30:01Mm-hmm.
30:02Valencia.
30:03Valencia, Elliot's ex-wife.
30:05She's a very captivating woman.
30:07My number.
30:13Let's see if I want to get a drink or something.
30:15Or maybe I'll see you here next month.
30:18Except you won't.
30:19There is no next month for the Grosvenor.
30:21Look.
30:23Ruben checked with some of his hospital mates.
30:25We're pretty sure that Lydia's shutting up shop.
30:28Alexa, if we don't solve this tonight, they're all going to scatter.
30:32Corey has an alibi.
30:34Elliot couldn't kill a fly.
30:36What, that leaves us with Baxter?
30:38And Lydia.
30:39Leaving Nick aside, I don't think her marriage was all wine and roses.
30:43Okay.
30:43And Corey told me that Afrazil has another purpose.
30:48Weight loss.
30:50Well, the story is that Winston Redfern got drunk, went to bed, injected himself,
30:54then forgot that he'd injected himself and did it again.
30:57Two used doses were found, along with two injection sites on the body.
31:00He forgot, says who?
31:02Lydia and Fletcher.
31:04But why would Lydia kill Nick Dunbar-Jones?
31:07Well, we know that he was getting ready to tell her about this little bed.
31:11Maybe she didn't take it well.
31:12And the feels a bit...
31:14Flimsy.
31:15Yeah.
31:17If only somebody could look around her apartment.
31:20I was already on my way, Alexa.
31:23Love your work, Madison.
31:26It's just through here.
31:42So, any big leads in the case here?
31:53Well, I know that the only thing Nick was guilty of is having crap-tasting friends.
31:57Oh.
31:58No, I just had a sneak peek at the quiz results.
32:01Want a spoiler?
32:03Not really.
32:03Your team has done really well.
32:06Nothing wrong with second place.
32:08Trust me, Baxter.
32:10By the end of the night,
32:12you'll get what's coming to you.
32:14See you later.
32:23See you later.
32:34Hey!
32:34Another water?
32:52Pletcher, did you know anything about this bitch situation?
32:57I mean, you seem to be across absolutely everything that goes on in this place.
33:00What are the odds you miss something like that?
33:02Yeah, you know, I...
33:04I heard rumblings.
33:06So did Nick and Lydia find a moment alone the night that he was killed?
33:11They met briefly in her apartment before the quiz.
33:16But if you're implying that they fought or that she had anything to do with it...
33:20Oh, no, no one's implying anything.
33:22Tell me about Winston.
33:24What was he like?
33:26He's a good boss, decent company, terrible husband.
33:31Infidelities, you mean?
33:32No, no, nothing like that.
33:33It's just that he criticised everything she said.
33:37Everything she wore.
33:39I'm surprised she coped as long as she did.
33:42She deserves better.
33:44Whoa, what were you doing?
33:57Whoa, what were you doing?
34:01Well, you weren't here before.
34:14Whoa, what were you doing?
34:19Alexa, whatever this is, I haven't got long.
34:37I thought it was time we had one of those tough conversations.
34:41Chipped glasses, auctioning off whatever you can, and cutting corners on the food.
34:47A spring roll straight from the freezer section.
34:51How badly in debt are you, and what are you willing to do to get out of it?
34:55Who are you?
34:57What are you doing here, because it's sure as hell not quiz night?
35:00True.
35:02I work with the police.
35:04Really?
35:05Well, why not just say that?
35:07Because it tends to make people less enthusiastic about chatting.
35:11So, a few weeks ago, you wrote to your clientele, practically begging them to buy gift vouchers before the end of the month.
35:20So what? What's that good to do with anything?
35:22Well, that's an old hospital trick, isn't it?
35:25Get some ready cash on hand to cover your outstanding taxes, and then hope that you make the money back in the next quarter.
35:31You never quite catch up, do you?
35:37This is Winston's final gift.
35:40A pub mired in debt.
35:44Top marks for you, Alexa. You worked it out.
35:47I'm screwed.
35:49Losing your business, that's got to be top.
35:51It's heartbreaking, is what it is.
35:54I worked my guts out for 30 years for this.
35:56For my train, for my own place.
36:02I didn't know Winston was mismanaging the money.
36:05When the quiz night took off, you'd think he'd be pleased, but no.
36:11I started getting all this attention.
36:14You mean from Nick and those other numpties?
36:16Even after Winston died, especially after Winston died.
36:23So you knew about the bed?
36:26I'm no idiot.
36:30You think Nick was pushed from the balcony, and you think I did it?
36:34Well, did you?
36:36Am I capable of murder?
36:38Sometimes I think so.
36:41Nick had the good grace to tell me about their little wager, and I was angry, but I didn't kill him.
36:46And I would never have hurt Winston.
36:50And I would never have hurt Winston.
36:51Never.
36:53If I hadn't have started this bloody quiz, Winston wouldn't have got jealous and started taking those stupid injections.
37:01So you really think that Winston overdosed by accident?
37:04There shouldn't have been any accidents.
37:07It's the whole reason that we hired Fletcher.
37:09Excuse me.
37:11What is it?
37:19It's not what you think, I promise.
37:21And the last question for the evening.
37:35How many bones does the human body contain?
37:40Alexa?
37:42Alexa, are you okay?
37:43All right, time's up.
37:45If everyone could please hand in their answer sheets and we'll tally the final scores.
37:51Sorry, what?
37:53Somebody left this at Lydia's apartment.
37:56It's a note, in case you ever feel like the real thing, and an unlabeled blue keycard.
38:01It's not blue.
38:03It's pretty poo to me.
38:04Nope.
38:05It's a zero.
38:06Alexa, are you sure you're all right?
38:08Oh, I have never been better.
38:09You know, now that the quiz is over and you can use it fine again, I need you to do one
38:14more thing for me.
38:16Ladies and gentlemen, the results are in.
38:20Our final leaderboard in third place, Risky Quizness.
38:26Yes.
38:27And in second place, missing out by only two points, the Chowderheads.
38:33Oh, that sucks.
38:35Which means our winners are, once again, the top two inches.
38:41Yes!
38:43I just want to thank everyone and let you know that our quiz night will go on a hiatus
38:49for a little while, but if...
38:52Well, that's unfortunate, isn't it?
38:54But it's been a great night, Lydia.
38:56And to the victors, the spoils.
38:57But I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask everybody who isn't the top two inches or Chowderheads
39:03to leave.
39:09Yes, this means you.
39:10Bye-bye.
39:15Uh, Fletcher, can you stay a minute?
39:17What the hell, Alexa?
39:19There's being a bad loser, and then there's this.
39:22Sit down, Baxter.
39:23It's time for the bonus round.
39:24So, who killed Winston Redfern and Nick Dunbar-Jones?
39:33And this one's for all the marbles.
39:36Okay, start with an easy one.
39:39Question one.
39:40Did Lydia know about the sweepstake you guys had running?
39:44Of course she did.
39:46She's not an idiot.
39:47But unfortunately, she also needed cash due to the dead horse that Winston saddled her
39:52with, and so she agreed to a proposition from Baxter Wells to pretend that he had won your
39:59bet in exchange for half the winnings.
40:02What?
40:03So Baxter got to keep pretending that he's God's gift to women, and Lydia kept the Grosvenor
40:08open a while longer.
40:09It's a win-win.
40:11No way.
40:12She's making it up.
40:12You left that upstairs, genius.
40:17And also, you sent this picture of you in Lydia's bed under the covers just for proof.
40:25No.
40:26You are a dead man, Wells.
40:27Well, she's been sleeping with your ex.
40:30What?
40:30What, you and Valencia?
40:31You and Valencia.
40:32Strap yourselves in, kids.
40:34I'm not even to the good bed yet.
40:35Okay, question two.
40:37Who here knew that the Grosvenor was in serious debt?
40:40I mean, Lydia, clearly.
40:43And Baxter probably put two and two together, am I right?
40:45Because of how much she needed the money.
40:47And, um, well, Fletcher.
40:49He runs the quiz nights, he pays for all the supplies, and he handles the team fees, right?
40:55Hmm.
40:55Question three.
40:57How many people are in all the photos out there in the hall?
41:02Me and Winston.
41:03Um, well, somebody else.
41:07Somebody else.
41:08Just off to the side.
41:10In every picture.
41:13Four.
41:14Who guessed that Fletcher has a medical background?
41:19I know I did.
41:21Fletcher was a medic in the army.
41:24Fletcher who gave up their career to make drinks for rich people.
41:27And Fletcher who was in charge of monitoring Winston's weight loss injections.
41:30And Fletcher, who couldn't stand to see the way that his boss treated Lydia.
41:38Fletcher who conveniently was the last person to see Winston alive.
41:43And the one who found his body the next morning.
41:45Final question.
41:49Who saw Nick leaving Lydia's apartment that night before the quiz?
41:53Nothing happened.
41:55Of course not.
41:55No.
41:56I mean, Nick was there to confess about this immoral little game that you guys were playing.
42:01He was trying to do the right thing.
42:03Do the right thing.
42:05As if any of those pricks do the right thing.
42:08Exactly.
42:10Because in your mind, Nick was leaving her room after having taken advantage of her.
42:16The beautiful woman that you were infatuated with.
42:20So that night, when Nick confronted you about some silly trivia question.
42:25You saw Red, and so did he.
42:28And you took that bar towel, and you shoved his words back in his face before you pushed him over the balcony.
42:39Fletcher.
42:45I only ever wanted to protect you, Lyds.
42:47You deserve better.
42:51Better than Winston.
42:53Better than any of this lot.
43:15Not sure I'll be heading out to another trivia night anytime soon.
43:17So, thank you for that.
43:19Luckily, we've got the next best thing.
43:21I think we're pretty much set.
43:23We've just got to pick the teams.
43:24Ruben, shotgun, I've said it first.
43:27Wow, thanks a lot.
43:29Harry.
43:30I'm going to take Harry.
43:31All right.
43:33Oh, you guys have no idea what you're in for.
43:36I think we do.
43:37We're orange.
43:38We're orange.
43:47Still got my heartbeat.
43:50I know you know, I know that the life of the party, the little.
43:56Tish Willopy Doll is based on the Toymaker's Childhood Imaginary Friend.
44:00I found everyone's imaginary friends came to life.
44:03Hi, I'm Tish.
44:04Want to be friends?
44:05Uh, unlikely.
44:06It's my day off, Alexa.
44:07We can call it a date.
44:08A freak accident.
