00:03Ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you the Luster.
00:08This giant cephalopod-like sea creature, half octopus, half shark, is, many believe,
00:15stuff of fantasy, the kind of fictional monster Jules Verne might dream up.
00:21But then, there are those more open-minded souls, like myself, who believe this gigantic
00:27cryptid to be as real as you or I.
00:30I will present to you the evidence I have collated, proving this animal is no mere figment of the imagination.
00:35And it all begins with the first sighting, off the coast of St. Marie in 1823, by this man,
00:44a pirate by the name of Pierre Lafitte.
00:54Yeah, Lafitte was my great-great-great-grandfather.
00:57I tell you no lies.
00:59Still got the journey he had when he was pirating away.
01:02Passed on from generation to generation.
01:04And that's why this is the only boat trip where you can experience the exact place my ancestor witnessed.
01:12The Luska.
01:14Roll up, roll up!
01:16You know you want to.
01:17And I promise you guys, you will not be disappointed.
01:22So how was it?
01:24Are you a believer now?
01:26To be honest, I think I'm even less of a believer than I was before.
01:31I don't know why you bothered.
01:33Because I want to be prepared.
01:36I'm afraid nothing can prepare you for my ex-husband.
01:43Hello.
01:44Either that's him, or we've come to a soup kitchen by mistake.
01:52Hello, Charles.
01:53Cara.
01:54It's been a while, hasn't it?
01:56Oh.
01:59Stop it.
02:05This is Rory.
02:08Ah, yes.
02:09Didn't realise you were bringing him.
02:11Nice to meet you, Rory.
02:13It's great to finally meet you, Giles.
02:15Can't wait to hear all your stories about the Luska.
02:17Absolutely fascinated about it.
02:19Ah.
02:21Would you like a glass of wine?
02:23Just a cup of coffee will do, Rita.
02:26Let me see if I can find a waiter.
02:29Sit down.
02:35So how are you?
02:37I mean, you know, the...
02:39the anniversary.
02:41Feels strange to be back.
02:44Looks like it was only yesterday.
02:47I'm taking the boat out later, to...
02:49to where it happened.
02:50Fancy joining.
02:51You remember him together?
02:52No, I'd rather stay here.
02:54With Rory.
03:05I...
03:06I...
03:08I...
03:09...
03:14I...
03:22I'm not...
03:49It's just a bad dream.
03:58How have you been?
04:00Just went for a walk.
04:01That's all.
04:03Thanks.
04:30Morning, sir.
04:32You're good?
04:33No, I am not good.
04:35What's wrong?
04:37Turns out I'm an uncle.
04:39Yes, mom.
04:40Yes, sir.
04:41I'm starting.
04:42What, I came to visit Uncle Merv anyway?
04:45That's Eloise.
04:46The niece I didn't know I had.
04:47So you're her Uncle Merv.
04:50No, I'm not.
04:51I mean, yes, I am her uncle, but not Merv.
04:53Never Merv.
04:54Understood?
04:55Okay.
04:56Clearly touched a nerve there.
04:59Well, I kind of miss him.
05:00So she's Solomon's daughter?
05:02I don't know why he couldn't just tell me that in the first place.
05:04He could have just said, well, as it happens, I do have a daughter.
05:07Are he and her mother together?
05:09Yeah, not for some time, apparently.
05:10She's supposed to be staying with her Auntie Vondra.
05:12Well, she doesn't like it there, so she ran away and came here.
05:16They've got a case, I assume?
05:18Oh, my God.
05:19It's not a murder case, is it?
05:22Please let me come on a ride along on Camara.
05:24Please.
05:25Right.
05:26So firstly, you're not coming on any ride along.
05:29And secondly, it's not Uncle Merv.
05:31It's Mervyn.
05:33Remember?
05:34Hi.
05:35I'm Naomi, by the way.
05:37I work with your Uncle Merv.
05:41Right.
05:42Go pack your stuff, young lady.
05:43You've got a boat to catch.
05:45I'm sending you back home to Antigua.
05:47Whatever you say, Uncle Merv.
05:49And it's not...
05:52I like her.
05:58Victim's name's Giles Parry, 58 years of age.
06:01Body was found floating six miles out at sea.
06:04Sergeant Fletchers with the postcard now.
06:05A couple of fishermen going out early this morning came across the body.
06:09But paramedics reckon he'd been in the water since last night.
06:14Thing is, this is already causing a stir on the heart.
06:17Why is that?
06:18Because of those marks on his body.
06:22They're all over his front and his back.
06:24And the bruising here.
06:26Some people are saying it was caused by the Luska.
06:29And that's what killed him.
06:31Sorry, what?
06:32It's a sea monster.
06:33A sea monster?
06:34Like a local legend kind of thing.
06:37Half shark, half octopus.
06:39Wraps its tentacles around you and drags you under.
06:41Hence...
06:42A sea monster?
06:43Not everybody believes in this thing.
06:45Most people don't.
06:46Do you?
06:47No, but it's still part of our history.
06:51Part of our culture.
06:52Right.
06:53Well, we can knock that theory on the head as a possible cause of death, alright?
06:56Except there's a little more to it than that, sir.
06:59That's why he's here.
07:07I've always wondered whether this would come back to haunt me.
07:11Seven years ago yesterday,
07:12Giles Parry's 16-year-old son, Benjamin,
07:17ground that seal.
07:19In the exact same location
07:22as Giles' body was found this morning.
07:25A local fisherman told me that
07:27Mr. Parry had sailed out to that swamp yesterday
07:31to pay his respects.
07:34Then he ended up dead himself.
07:38Was he stormy yesterday?
07:40Called the harbour master.
07:42It was come for the last 24 hours.
07:44Do we know what time he left the harbour?
07:46Just before 7 o'clock,
07:47according to the GPS.
07:49Also, there's a boat mechanic
07:51who's been fixing Mr. Parry's engine.
07:53So I'm leaving.
07:54He says there was definitely nobody else on the boat with him.
07:57It's arrived at the final destination
07:59and half an hour later,
08:00radar shows no other boat near it at any point.
08:03So what happened to him?
08:05How did he end up dead
08:06with all those weird markings on him?
08:09Unless, you know,
08:11it was the lost girl.
08:14I hate to break it to you, Officer Rose,
08:16but sea monsters don't exist.
08:17No, yeah, I know.
08:20But it'd be cool if they did do all right.
08:23What's that?
08:36I don't know what happened on that boat,
08:57but the fact that we found this on it
08:59means it's suspicious.
09:01I think someone else was there, you know?
09:08I'm going to talk to Catherine.
09:10In what I know,
09:12James Parry was an isolated figure,
09:14but he did drink at her bar
09:16and he would talk to her.
09:18I'm also going to contact the Guadalupe police
09:21and request the Benjamin Parry case files.
09:25Well, so the search back then
09:26wasn't led by the St. Marie team?
09:28As it was,
09:29the Guadalupe Coast Guard
09:30who was first contacted
09:32when the empty boat was discovered,
09:34they stayed there late.
09:37How about that rankled?
09:38I did push for us to have a role,
09:40but the senior investigating officer
09:43wasn't interested.
09:48There's some people on St. Marie
09:50who think I should have pressed harder,
09:54especially when they ran into a dead end
09:56early on.
09:58It's always been felt
09:59more could have been done
10:02than by me.
10:08Considering I am already
10:11persona non grata,
10:12I would like to do my bit
10:14to try and solve this case now
10:17and win back the community's trust.
10:20I've located the victim's ex-wife.
10:23She and her partner
10:24are staying at a hotel
10:25just outside town.
10:34We arrived here two days ago
10:36to mark the anniversary
10:37of Kara's son's passing.
10:40I'm sorry to ask,
10:41Miss Smart,
10:42but your son Benjamin,
10:44why did he take the boat out
10:45on his own?
10:47Giles had always been into
10:50UFOs and aliens,
10:51that kind of thing.
10:53Our holidays were spent
10:54visiting Loch Ness.
10:55Or the Bermuda Triangle.
10:57The Losca,
10:58here on St. Marie.
10:59Ben was getting even more fanatical
11:01than he stood.
11:02That's why he snuck out
11:04on his own.
11:05He took the boat we'd hired out
11:06for a last ditch sighting
11:09of the Losca.
11:10The weather turned bad.
11:12The sea was rough.
11:14He never came back.
11:19I kept hoping they'd find him alive
11:22with a life jacket on
11:23just floating somewhere.
11:24As time passed,
11:25you have to accept
11:27that he's not coming back.
11:30So you returned to England?
11:33After ten months,
11:34Giles and I were arguing
11:35non-stop by then.
11:37I just needed some space,
11:39some time to process it all.
11:42Where is he?
11:46Giles was convinced
11:47the Losca took their son.
11:49He became obsessed.
11:51That's why he stayed on here
11:52when I left,
11:54to try and prove
11:55the Losca exists.
11:57And he really,
11:58truly believed in it.
12:02And yesterday,
12:03did you see Giles at all?
12:05We had an early dinner
12:06at five.
12:08It's great to finally meet you,
12:09Giles.
12:10And how was that?
12:11How was Giles then?
12:12It was fine.
12:14You know,
12:14quiet.
12:15Giles was,
12:16Giles,
12:18still as delusional
12:18as he ever was.
12:20Did Giles ever own a gun
12:21at all?
12:22Not why we were together.
12:24And I struggled to leave.
12:26He bought one
12:26while he was out here.
12:27What exactly happened to Giles?
12:30You said that he was
12:30found dead at sea.
12:32I assumed it was an accident,
12:33but is there more to it
12:34than that?
12:36Well,
12:36we're not sure yet.
12:39We're still working
12:39on that one.
12:49Yeah,
12:49my friend's dad's
12:50where he's just
12:50at the Losca one time.
12:52Okay,
12:52come on.
12:53There's nobody
12:54to see him afterwards.
12:56Let's keep our focus
12:57on the Giles.
13:24Auntie Vondra.
13:25I mean,
13:26Vondra.
13:32Vondra,
13:33Vondra,
13:33it's alright.
13:34She's back at my place.
13:35She's safe.
13:36Thanks.
13:36Okay,
13:37look,
13:37I'll call you back
13:37in a bit.
13:39Mo?
13:41Hey,
13:42Uncle Mo.
13:43Hope you're hungry.
13:44I ordered lots.
13:45Which reminds me,
13:47I borrowed
13:47your credit card
13:48this morning.
13:49Needed it to pay
13:49for the boat
13:50to get back
13:50to St.
13:50Marie.
13:51And dinner.
13:52You really are
13:53your father's daughter,
13:53aren't you?
13:54I know,
13:55right?
13:56What's going on,
13:57Eloise?
13:57Why are you back here?
13:59Because
14:00we need to talk
14:01about Dad.
14:03We could have done
14:03that this morning.
14:05Why didn't you
14:05mention it then?
14:06I was waiting
14:07for the right moment.
14:08And before I know it,
14:09you're shoving me
14:10on her boat
14:11back home.
14:13Alright.
14:15What about you,
14:17We need to work out
14:18a plan,
14:18Uncle Mo.
14:19A plan for what?
14:20To get him out of prison.
14:22To find evidence
14:23that proves
14:24he's innocent.
14:25Okay,
14:27what exactly
14:28did your dad
14:29tell you
14:29about him
14:30being arrested?
14:31Just that he was
14:31set up
14:32and shouldn't be
14:33in jail.
14:34That it's
14:36miscarriage.
14:37A miscarriage
14:38of justice.
14:40So,
14:41you need to help him,
14:42right?
14:46Why don't you
14:47go and get some
14:47plates and cutlery,
14:48yeah?
14:56solve you,
14:57idiots.
15:16Solomon clearly hasn't told her
15:17about the scam
15:18he got caught up in.
15:19That he's got to
15:20shot someone
15:22and held me hostage.
15:25He's dressed it up
15:26like he was the victim.
15:28And she obviously
15:29idolizes him.
15:30What are you going
15:31to do?
15:32I should just tell her
15:33the truth,
15:33right?
15:35Just,
15:37tell her in a nice way.
15:39Not in a
15:41your kind of way.
15:43What is a
15:44my kind of way?
15:44You know,
15:45sometimes you can be
15:46a tiny bit
15:48insensitive.
15:50Insensitive?
15:52Me?
15:52Insensitive?
15:53That is rubbish.
15:55I mean,
15:55if anything,
15:56it's everyone else
15:56who is too sensitive.
15:58Sure.
15:59That's
16:00totally what it is.
16:04Hey, Louise.
16:07Right,
16:08I'm
16:09off to work now.
16:10So,
16:11we can have
16:12dinner later,
16:13yeah?
16:13And we'll
16:16talk.
16:17Okay,
16:17Uncle Mark.
16:21Old school.
16:22I like it.
16:28Right,
16:29where we at
16:30with the case?
16:31Anything from
16:31the lab yet?
16:33Post-mortem's
16:34estimating time
16:35of death
16:35between 7.30
16:36and 8.00 p.m.
16:37So,
16:38the victim
16:39leaves the harbor
16:40at 7,
16:41dies between
16:427.30 and 8,
16:43out at sea
16:44just after
16:45it drops anchor.
16:46And,
16:47cause of death
16:48was internal bleeding
16:49due to a ruptured spleen,
16:51which,
16:52in theory,
16:53could have been caused
16:54by something
16:55gripping him tightly
16:57like
16:57the tentacles
16:59of the Lusk.
17:00Or,
17:02more likely,
17:03something else.
17:04Same with
17:05the red markings,
17:07kind of like
17:07friction burns,
17:08but,
17:08there's nothing
17:09that they seem
17:10to suggest
17:10what might have
17:11caused it.
17:12What about
17:13the search
17:13of the victim's house?
17:15Mattia and Seb
17:16are just starting.
17:32Sarge,
17:32you have to see this.
17:34Ten-year-old Seb
17:35will be losing
17:35his mind right now.
17:38I've seen one
17:39that's central in here.
17:44This is going to be
17:45the best search ever.
17:46All right,
17:47so Rose,
17:48you start
17:48from the computer,
17:49I'll hit the cabinets.
17:50All right,
17:50cool.
17:57All right,
17:58Sarge?
17:59Yeah,
18:00it's just my old
18:00boss from Jamaica,
18:01I'll call him once
18:02we're done with this.
18:13So what do we know
18:14about our victim?
18:15Giles Parry
18:16worked as a paramedic
18:17back in the UK
18:18until he moved out
18:19here seven years ago,
18:21spent all his savings
18:22buying a boat
18:23and earned a small income
18:24giving talks about
18:25the legend of the Lusk.
18:27What about these two?
18:28Any sniff of a motive yet?
18:29We're still waiting
18:30on Mr. Lyons'
18:32background and financial checks,
18:33but he and Cara
18:34have been together
18:35just over a year,
18:36met on a dating app.
18:37Now,
18:38as he only met the victim
18:39for the first time yesterday,
18:40I'm struggling to find
18:42a reason for him
18:42wanting Mr. Parry dead,
18:44but she's a different story.
18:46Miss Smart
18:47previously worked
18:48as a teacher
18:48before giving that up
18:49to write a book
18:50a few years ago,
18:51a memoir
18:52about losing her son.
18:54I skim read it
18:55and she's very honest
18:57about how hurt
18:58and angry she felt
18:59about Joust's behavior.
19:01When I needed
19:02my husband's love
19:03the most,
19:04he disappeared down
19:05the rabbit hole
19:05of fantasy,
19:06casting me aside
19:07for his futile belief
19:09in a mythical beast.
19:10I mean,
19:11the guy had gone
19:11full on Looney Tunes,
19:12didn't he?
19:13What was that
19:14you said earlier
19:15about not being insensitive?
19:18Look, I'm not...
19:18Where it gets interesting
19:19is the book's no longer
19:21bringing in any money.
19:22She's basically broke.
19:24I spoke to her
19:25literary agent in the UK
19:26and apparently
19:27a US TV production company
19:29has offered to make
19:30a documentary
19:31about her and Joust's son
19:32going missing.
19:33It's worth a quarter
19:35of a million dollars.
19:37Oh, I'm sensing a but.
19:39It going ahead
19:40was dependent
19:41on Mr. Parry
19:43agreeing to appear
19:44in the documentary too.
19:45Don't tell me.
19:47He didn't want to.
19:54So we spoke
19:54to the staff here.
19:56Well, that dinner
19:56you had with Joust,
19:57it wasn't as sedate
19:59as you said it was.
20:00According to them,
20:01you got quite worked up,
20:03the smart.
20:03Angry that your ex-husband
20:05was refusing
20:06to agree to the documentary.
20:08Well, that's an exaggeration
20:09if ever I heard one.
20:10No, it's not.
20:10It's the truth.
20:11Joust, please.
20:12I need this.
20:13Why are you being so stubborn?
20:14Because I know
