00:00:01Hey!
00:00:02Hey!
00:00:02Hey!
00:00:02Hey!
00:00:19Hey!
00:00:28Hey!
00:00:29Dude!
00:00:30Come on!
00:00:31You're blocking the...
00:00:32No way!
00:00:43The hell?
00:00:45Whoa!
00:00:47Whoa!
00:00:48Whoa!
00:00:49Whoa!
00:00:49Whoa!
00:00:56Blood force trauma.
00:01:01Hey, Todd.
00:01:02You alright? Do you wanna sit down for a minute?
00:01:04The circle. The crop circle.
00:01:06What? What'd he say?
00:01:08Aliens made it. Crop circle.
00:01:10Jacob's lying in the centre of an alien crop circle.
00:01:12But in grass, not crop.
00:01:13You know this person?
00:01:14Nah.
00:01:15Oh, only that his name's Jacob.
00:01:17He runs, uh, Jacob's Burgers in town.
00:01:19And the circle, what makes you think it's alien made?
00:01:22Because there's an aliens of people too can meet in town.
00:01:24And now he's lying dead in the centre of an alien crop circle.
00:01:27Back home, many people are founded on crop circles.
00:01:30But we call them spirit circles.
00:01:32Because parrots rather than aliens made them.
00:01:35No.
00:01:36Because they died from overconsumption of vodka.
00:01:39They pickled their livers.
00:01:41Of course.
00:01:44This your boy, Todd?
00:01:45Ah, yeah, yeah it is.
00:01:46And where were you when you hit this?
00:01:49You think my boy killed Jacob?
00:01:51It's possible.
00:01:52Nah.
00:01:53They came before me.
00:01:54Who's that?
00:01:54Aliens.
00:01:55He's dead centre.
00:01:56Dead on a crop circle.
00:01:57Hey, Todd.
00:01:58Are you high?
00:01:59No.
00:02:00I've told you.
00:02:00I don't smoke their stuff anymore.
00:02:02Except that one time that I completely forgot about until he just triggered me.
00:02:04Okay, Todd.
00:02:05What's with all the alien stuff?
00:02:07What more evidence do you want?
00:02:09He's dead.
00:02:10In a crop circle.
00:02:10Crop circle.
00:02:11Okay, we got it.
00:02:16Can I go?
00:02:17What's so important?
00:02:18I'm training for speed golf.
00:02:20Every four hours I've done nine holes.
00:02:21I've got the last one to go.
00:02:22Speed golf?
00:02:24Yeah.
00:02:24Three clubs, one ball.
00:02:26Fast as you can.
00:02:26It's for my niece's school fundraiser.
00:02:28So this alien convention, where is it?
00:02:30At the croc.
00:02:31Hey, I gotta go, eh?
00:02:32My ball?
00:02:33No.
00:02:40Hi, Jacob.
00:02:42You seem to have come unstuck on the 13th hole.
00:02:47Truly unlucky for some.
00:02:52Gina, safe to say that the victim died from his head injury?
00:02:56Nothing is safe, Mike.
00:02:57Not when he's lying in a circle of death.
00:02:59Best we get a graph sample.
00:03:00I am a pathologist, not a greenkeeper.
00:03:04Unless the possible link surrounding his cause of death and any chemical compound found
00:03:09on vegetation.
00:03:10Certainly, Mike.
00:03:12Good thinking.
00:03:15Well, I need a coffee.
00:03:24This بت is done.
00:03:28Good thinking, why?
00:03:32We want to have a coffee.
00:03:34Which well do you have?
00:03:47His name is Elfie Gingernuts.
00:03:51You have a pig.
00:03:52He's not a dolphin, is he?
00:03:54Well, it's just a pig on a golf course.
00:03:57It's not what you'd expect, that's all.
00:03:58Well, he's a guard pig.
00:04:01People who tell you that dog is a man's best friend have never felt the love of a pig.
00:04:04And I don't mean my ex-husband when I say that.
00:04:08Cop, are you?
00:04:10Lucy Chalmers, Broken Wood CIB.
00:04:12I'd like to ask you a few questions regarding this morning's incident.
00:04:15Grim. Janet Grim.
00:04:19You'd better come in.
00:04:24How did you know Jacob Lewis?
00:04:26He'd be here about three times a week.
00:04:28Usually first thing.
00:04:30But not to play golf.
00:04:31Why do you say that?
00:04:33Because you didn't have any golf clubs with him.
00:04:36Never played golf. He isn't a member.
00:04:38Did you see him this morning?
00:04:40No, I didn't see him.
00:04:43What did he do here?
00:04:45Good question.
00:04:46I used to ask him, he'd say he was going for a walk.
00:04:48He'd be hanging out in the trees.
00:04:51The other members used to complain about him lurking.
00:04:53There he was.
00:04:54He was a voyeur of sorts.
00:04:56A golf foyer.
00:04:58Weird, eh?
00:04:59Most people watch it on TV.
00:05:02Then again, he's a chef.
00:05:04Oh, he says he's a chef.
00:05:06Gourmet burgers, really?
00:05:08All chefs are a bit weird.
00:05:11You have a greenkeeper?
00:05:12Natasha.
00:05:13Best in the biz.
00:05:14Okay.
00:05:15Thanks for your help.
00:05:17And the 13th Fairway will have to stay closed for a while.
00:05:28I didn't expect you two to be UFO aficionados.
00:05:32Well, it's good to keep an open mind.
00:05:34Bad one about Jacob Lewis.
00:05:36Wow.
00:05:36Word spreads fast around here.
00:05:39Thanks, Frodes.
00:05:40Put it on the tab.
00:05:41Inspector?
00:05:43Uh, Detective Senior Sergeant, actually.
00:05:45Um, Mike Sheppard.
00:05:47Detective Christian Sims, broker with CIB.
00:05:49Zelda Belfand, President of Aliens Are People 2.
00:05:52Opt.
00:05:53Opt?
00:05:54Yes.
00:05:55And I believe I can help you with your investigation.
00:05:57You have some information?
00:05:59From the account that I've been given,
00:06:00it sounds very much like a failed alien induction.
00:06:04The human body found at the dead center of the crop circle is the tell.
00:06:07Well, at this stage, it's still too early to conclude
00:06:10whether or not the circle is, in fact, a crop circle.
00:06:13Oh, but most likely for sure.
00:06:16Oh, sorry, how rude of me.
00:06:18This is Christopher, a fellow member of Opt.
00:06:21Christopher Kramer?
00:06:22Yeah, we've met.
00:06:23Oh, I don't think so.
00:06:25It was a few years ago with regards to the Dishler clinic.
00:06:29Nope, I can't say I recall.
00:06:32Well, it was a long time ago.
00:06:34Christopher.
00:06:35Oh, maybe that does vibrate a faint frequency,
00:06:37but the more important thing is you understand who you're in the company of.
00:06:40Now, if you need expert advice on alien abduction,
00:06:44Zelda's our guiding light on anything extraterrestrial.
00:06:46Oh, Christopher, please.
00:06:48Tell them.
00:06:48Go on.
00:06:49It was 2010.
00:06:50I was 22, and I was abducted by an alien spacecraft.
00:06:54The experience gave me an intimate understanding of alien life form.
00:07:00The cosmic beings and I communed, shall we say,
00:07:05connected on a very deep level.
00:07:07Several times.
00:07:09It was phenomenal.
00:07:12Well, my life changed forever.
00:07:15And from that, I have a theory which explains how your man,
00:07:19Jacob, is it?
00:07:20Might have died.
00:07:22Follow me.
00:07:27Zelda's my fiancée.
00:07:29Wow.
00:07:30Go you.
00:07:30No, no, no, not go you.
00:07:32This is serious.
00:07:33It's a committed relationship.
00:07:35Okay?
00:07:35So, look, that guy you used to know, the old Christopher,
00:07:38he's history, okay?
00:07:39And new Christopher, he's got it together.
00:07:42New Christopher is trying hard and succeeding
00:07:43to be a fully integrated member of society.
00:07:46New Christopher is the only Christopher that Zelda knows.
00:07:49Christopher!
00:07:50Christopher!
00:07:53New Christopher, fully integrated.
00:07:56Got it.
00:08:00The convention is in the ballroom.
00:08:02New ARCT members.
00:08:04Why am I not surprised?
00:08:05Trudy.
00:08:10Oh, looking great, Kirk.
00:08:12Keep it up.
00:08:14Thanks.
00:08:16Broken Wood is in close proximity to Earth's magnetic south pole.
00:08:20Magnetic radiation passing overhead from the pole
00:08:24can disrupt an alien craft's navigation system.
00:08:27That's right.
00:08:28Alien planets may not have magnetic poles,
00:08:30so aliens wouldn't think to have polar navigational offsets.
00:08:32If the vessel descended too quickly with its door prematurely open,
00:08:37then it's likely that the leading edge of the door
00:08:41struck the man's head like so.
00:08:44It's got aborted alien abduction written all over it.
00:08:47It's a AAA event.
00:08:50Did either of you know Jacob Lewis?
00:08:52Know him?
00:08:53I don't think so.
00:08:56I'm vegan.
00:08:58It's interesting that you're holding a convention in Broken Wood
00:09:02and then a AAA event occurs.
00:09:04It's more than interesting.
00:09:06It's reinforcing.
00:09:07I'm constantly communing with cosmic beings
00:09:10and I put a lot of energy out.
00:09:13I'm hopeful that tomorrow night
00:09:15that energy will be returned in the form of a visitation.
00:09:19Why tomorrow night?
00:09:20Oh, as part of the convention, we're staging a reach-out.
00:09:23Well.
00:09:26Oh, thank you.
00:09:28Good luck with that.
00:09:29Yeah.
00:09:30Good luck.
00:09:31I'm so glad I could help.
00:09:32Me too.
00:09:37Non-believers?
00:09:39Infidels.
00:09:40They will come around.
00:09:43Excuse me, detectives.
00:09:44Ah, Dr. Plummer.
00:09:46Reverend Green.
00:09:47Is it true about Jacob Lewis?
00:09:49Ah, Mr. Lewis was found dead on the golf course this morning, yes.
00:09:53You knew him?
00:09:54Not personally, no.
00:09:56We were well acquainted with his cuisine.
00:09:58Dining at his restaurant.
00:10:00Something of our Friday night treat.
00:10:02Triple truffle burger with mushroom filet and chipotle fries.
00:10:06Oh, yummy.
00:10:07The truffle clings not to my taste.
00:10:10Lucas has another vice.
00:10:12And one holy sinner with double cheese, feta and beetroot fondue.
00:10:16Ah, dare I say it, a taste of heaven.
00:10:22Such a huge loss to the gastro community.
00:10:24So your members are up?
00:10:26No.
00:10:27I prefer to think that aliens are their own unique species.
00:10:31I'm doing research for my next psychology book, Believing is Seeing.
00:10:34I'm simply here to observe the power of human imagination.
00:10:38And you, Reverend?
00:10:40I can never resist a free cab.
00:10:42And, of course, I'm also here to offer the church's perspective if needed.
00:10:45Oh, she's vague and it's pissed.
00:10:47We can discuss this later.
00:10:49Ah, it's Gina.
00:10:51Gina.
00:10:52Mike, I've done a preliminary examination on the victim's body.
00:10:55And?
00:10:56There are several sites of damage.
00:10:58I see.
00:10:59Mike, I think there may have been multiple aliens involved.
00:11:03Multiple aliens?
00:11:04I would bet a dwarf planet.
00:11:07And a solar eclipse, Mike.
00:11:09I'm on my way.
00:11:14Fine.
00:11:23Excuse me?
00:11:25Lena, hi.
00:11:27I heard about Jacob.
00:11:28It's so awful.
00:11:30Did you know him?
00:11:31Well, he used to hang out here.
00:11:33They're hitting on me for a date.
00:11:34The golf course.
00:11:36Yeah.
00:11:37Come on, you'll love it.
00:11:38It's beautiful at sunset.
00:11:39Lots of birds.
00:11:40Okay, sure.
00:11:41Why not?
00:11:42We could take Trudy's dog.
00:11:43Trudy's dog.
00:11:44Why?
00:11:46Well, you know, first aid and all, just might pay to have an adult in the room.
00:11:53He was an odd guy, but cute.
00:11:55Not as cute as Chad was, but still cute.
00:11:59Hey, do you know Campania as a sighthound or a scenthound?
00:12:02What?
00:12:03Well, hunting dogs are bred to be one or the other.
00:12:05Scenthounds have super sharp noses.
00:12:07You can train them to pick up on pretty much anything.
00:12:08I've got no idea.
00:12:10I'm more of a cat person.
00:12:11Do you like cats?
00:12:14Meow.
00:12:15I've got a cat suit at home.
00:12:23Looking for something?
00:12:25Just out for a casual walk?
00:12:27There's no crime in that, is there?
00:12:28Dogs are banned from the course.
00:12:30You need to leave.
00:12:31Well, dogs are banned, but pigs aren't.
00:12:33Talk about animal inequality.
00:12:34Read Animal Farm.
00:12:35You'll get the idea.
00:12:39Neither of us had read it, and Jacob admitted he wasn't into cats.
00:12:42Not that I'd wear my cat suit on a first date.
00:12:44The cat suit was me and Chad's name.
00:12:47Still feels a bit soon, actually.
00:12:50Uh, Lena, what was Jacob digging for?
00:12:52Lost golf balls.
00:12:53What else?
00:12:54Quite the romantic first date.
00:12:57I was an extra pair of eyes to scan for balls.
00:12:59Parnia was there to sniff for the buried ones.
00:13:01I wouldn't have thought that lost golf balls would be buried.
00:13:04Really old ones are.
00:13:05Jacob said the aged ones are the most valuable.
00:13:07Soil preserves them, and they've become, like, antique.
00:13:11Well, uh, thanks.
00:13:13We'll be in touch if we need to know more.
00:13:32Natasha?
00:13:33Tash.
00:13:34Yeah?
00:13:35Uh, DC Chalmers.
00:13:38A few questions about this morning's incident?
00:13:40Right.
00:13:41Right.
00:13:41Yeah.
00:13:42Shocking.
00:13:44What time did you start work this morning?
00:13:46Uh, around 7am.
00:13:48Did you notice anyone on or around the 13th fairway at that time?
00:13:53Uh, no.
00:13:54I was working in here.
00:13:55Busy doing maintenance work.
00:13:57The mullers constantly need oil and grease, so.
00:14:00No, I didn't see Jacob.
00:14:03But every other day I did.
00:14:05How old do you know him?
00:14:07I know him enough to know he's a self-entitled dick.
00:14:10That's a strong opinion.
00:14:11He was always damaging my fairways with his endless walking and lurking about.
00:14:16I warned him to get off my greens, but would be a right arsehole about it.
00:14:19Hey!
00:14:20I've had enough of you!
00:14:21Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
00:14:26Suck up!
00:14:28I never did get that hole in one.
00:14:32And that's as close as you got to him?
00:14:35Too risky for him to get any closer.
00:14:36I'm way more accurate at chipping than driving.
00:14:40The victim has a severe traumatic brain injury resulting from a blunt force to the head.
00:14:46Extensive fractures radiate from the central point of impact.
00:14:50Could a golf ball cause that injury?
00:14:52No.
00:14:53Too small.
00:14:54The trauma indicates that a large curved object impacted his head.
00:14:59Also be a golf club.
00:15:01But, as I was saying, he also has a welt-like injury on the side of his calf.
00:15:07From the same object?
00:15:09More tests, Mike.
00:15:12But the tissue damage suggested happened at the same time.
00:15:15At time of death?
00:15:16With no onset of rigor mortis when we arrived, I would estimate between 6 and 8 a.m.
00:15:22And the grass samples?
00:15:25The grass has been burned, not sprayed.
00:15:28But the victim, was his skin or clothing burnt at all?
00:15:31No.
00:15:33I burned the grass off with a flamethrower.
00:15:35We're one of the first golf courses in the world to be certified as organic.
00:15:38So, obviously, we kill as a total no-go.
00:15:42Why do you burn a circle of grass?
00:15:45I like polka dots.
00:15:47I'm going to burn them all over.
00:15:50I'm making a bunker.
00:15:52Step 1, burn off the grass.
00:15:54Step 2, let it sit for a week, let the roots dry out.
00:15:57And I dig a bunker.
00:15:59Why a perfect circle?
00:16:02Circles are the ultimate symmetrical shape.
00:16:05They're balanced.
00:16:06They evoke harmony.
00:16:08Symmetry actually helps calm the players.
00:16:11My next bunker is going to be an equilateral triangle.
00:16:14Thomas!
00:16:17Excuse me.
00:16:18Yeah.
00:16:24Hey!
00:16:26Can I help you?
00:16:29I'm a detective.
00:16:31Hey!
00:16:32Hey!
00:16:33Hey!
00:16:37Hey!
00:17:01Starting a new hobby.
00:17:02I'm saving that treat for retirement.
00:17:05When you won't be able to afford it.
00:17:06Very wise.
00:17:07Did I ever mention that I...
00:17:08Hate golf?
00:17:09Many times.
00:17:11We found this in the rough, not far from the crop circle.
00:17:15I'm guessing it broke and someone's dumped it.
00:17:17Be a pretty decent weapon in the wrong hands.
00:17:20Get Gina to see if that's a match for Jacob's wounds.
00:17:23As we were retrieving this, I saw a man loitering on the fairway.
00:17:27Didn't look like a golfer, and he took off once I tried to engage with him.
00:17:40I couldn't get a read on the number plate.
00:17:42Tash didn't recognise him either.
00:17:45Aside from that, neither she nor the club manager, Janet Grimm,
00:17:48saw anyone on the course prior to Todd finding the victim.
00:17:51So the fairways were empty.
00:17:53But for the aliens.
00:17:54Oh yes, on that note, in her shed Tash is hiding something strange under a drop cloth.
00:18:01How strange?
00:18:02Well, let's just say at this stage it remains unidentified.
00:18:07What's under the drop cloth?
00:18:09Uh, why do you want to know?
00:18:12Well, I'm intrigued by its contour.
00:18:16Uh, yeah, I can't tell you.
00:18:26You think it's a UFO?
00:18:30You do, don't you?
00:18:31No, all I'm saying is that...
00:18:33A flying saucer.
00:18:34Wow, come on.
00:18:35Why was she being evasive?
00:18:37You have that effect on people.
00:18:39There is no flying saucer.
00:18:40But if there is, I'll dress up as a little green alien.
00:18:44Well then, boss, we should get a warrant to find out.
00:18:47On the suspicion that a greenkeeper is harbouring alien fugitives in a spaceship.
00:18:51It's tenuous.
00:18:52But Kristen, as a little green alien, surely that's worth a shot.
00:18:55In your dreams.
00:18:58Uh, what about Jacob's cafe?
00:19:00Do you know if anyone wanted to harm Jacob?
00:19:03No, he was a poor guy.
00:19:06Did he owe anyone any money?
00:19:09Mmm, the cafe's doing well, so I doubt that.
00:19:11He was thinking of expanding.
00:19:13Wanted me to take over some of the cooking, but that's so not my thing.
00:19:17Did he seem more stressed than normal?
00:19:19Oh, he's a bit antsy about the rising price of raw ingredients, but who isn't?
00:19:25Okay, well, um...
00:19:27We out.
00:19:28Can you cook?
00:19:30Can I cook?
00:19:32It's just, I'm freaking out.
00:19:34Well, it turns out Jacob's Cafe have the contract for catering the art event,
00:19:39and Faya is a little bit overwhelmed by the prospect.
00:19:44Todd!
00:19:47Hey, I've been thinking about the crop circle, trying to make sense of it.
00:19:50Uh, have you spoken to Janet Grimm?
00:19:53We have.
00:19:54Oh, good.
00:19:54Because when I saw her this morning, it was really weird.
00:19:57Shut up!
00:19:57What the hell, lady?
00:19:58Get the hell out of here, go on!
00:19:59So I figured maybe Janet and the alien forces might be working together.
00:20:03Because?
00:20:04She was threatening him.
00:20:05Next minute, he was struck by a spaceship.
00:20:07What was the yelling about?
00:20:09It's obvious, isn't it?
00:20:10It was about herding Jacob into the open space, while giving the spaceship a glass shot at him.
00:20:17Oh, too soon.
00:20:19Hey, I've got a train.
00:20:22Someone's telling Porky's.
00:20:24Indeed.
00:20:25Let's bring in Janet Grimm.
00:20:30Pay the green fees.
00:20:31End of story.
00:20:32Capitalist coercion.
00:20:34This is probably stolen land anyway.
00:20:36No pay, no pay.
00:20:37Listen, this is so much bigger than us not paying green fees.
00:20:39We were this close to actual contact.
00:20:41This close.
00:20:42I smell bacon.
00:20:44You've upset him.
00:20:45It's okay, hon.
00:20:47It's okay.
00:20:48No, the actual pigs are here.
00:20:51Ms. Grimm.
00:20:53We need to talk.
00:20:54Can you arrest these clowns?
00:20:55For trespassing, not paying green fees?
00:20:57Anything will be good to get them out of my face.
00:21:00Fellas, can I have a word?
00:21:03Janet, we have a witness who saw you shouting at Jacob Lewis this morning on the golf course.
00:21:09Who said that?
00:21:10That's not relevant.
00:21:11What is relevant is why you said you hadn't seen anyone on the course when you had.
00:21:15Well, with all the police activity, it must have stripped my mind.
00:21:18What were you arguing about?
00:21:20He was doing his usual lurking in the trees, but he was also digging up the grounds.
00:21:24I had enough.
00:21:25Why would he be digging?
00:21:26No idea.
00:21:28Just what he does.
00:21:29He digs.
00:21:30He lurks.
00:21:32We're going to need a formal statement from you.
00:21:34Down at the station.
00:21:35Oh, I can't leave Alfie.
00:21:36I'll talk to Tash.
00:21:38I'm sure she can hold the fort.
00:21:39Don't fret, honey.
00:21:41Don't be long.
00:21:44Christopher, you may claim not to remember me, but I certainly remember you well enough
00:21:49to know that you are not a golfer, as evidenced by your attire.
00:21:53We wanted to blend in.
00:21:54To sneak onto the golf course.
00:21:56Why?
00:21:56To pay our respects to the dead guy.
00:21:58So, sneaking into a crime scene?
00:22:00An aborted alien abduction is not a crime scene.
00:22:02A AAA event is the scene of an accident.
00:22:04We came to be at one with the crop circle.
00:22:07Beautiful.
00:22:08They were here.
00:22:10Right here.
00:22:11Which means we're only a few hours behind actual contact.
00:22:14Aliens were here.
00:22:15Aliens were here.
00:22:18Oh.
00:22:20It's like the yolk of a giant alien egg.
00:22:23It's just oozed down into the grass.
00:22:25I mean...
00:22:25Oh.
00:22:27Oh.
00:22:28It smells so good.
00:22:30Christopher, check the radiation.
00:22:32Oh.
00:22:38Affirmative.
00:22:40Turned out to be 0.001 MSVs.
00:22:43So, about the same as eating a banana, then?
00:22:45They still left their mark.
00:22:47And you still disregarded a police cordon.
00:22:49Plastic tape.
00:22:50Big deal.
00:22:51Detective, you don't have to tell Zelda about this, do you?
00:22:53I just don't want to stress her out.
00:22:56I think we can keep it between us.
00:22:58Great.
00:22:59And remember, I may...
00:23:00You're a fully integrated member of society.
00:23:03Yeah.
00:23:04So act like it.
00:23:07Chris.
00:23:08Don't talk to pigs.
00:23:10They're not like us.
00:23:11They're animals.
00:23:15Hello?
00:23:36Once again,
00:23:37what were you and Jacob arguing about?
00:23:39His attitude.
00:23:42Digging up and wrecking your golf course.
00:23:44I'll start, wouldn't you say?
00:23:46What was he digging for?
00:23:48Golf balls.
00:23:49Let me guess,
00:23:50the buried ones are aged,
00:23:52and therefore worth more.
00:23:54A golf ball's a golf ball,
00:23:56as far as I'm concerned.
00:23:57Hey.
00:23:58Hey, you're ripping me off big time.
00:24:00Supply and demand.
00:24:01Supply and demand,
00:24:01that's all it is.
00:24:03Take it or leave it.
00:24:05Supply and demand of what?
00:24:06Golf balls.
00:24:08I bought them off Jacob for a dollar.
00:24:11I sold them at the club room shops for five dollars.
00:24:13He thought the markup was too high,
00:24:14he wanted more money.
00:24:15I refused.
00:24:17I don't pretend to understand how his mind works,
00:24:19but he was digging up my course.
00:24:21We shouted at each other,
00:24:23and end of story.
00:24:28Hi there.
00:24:30How do you feel?
00:24:32Like I've been hit in the head with a shovel.
00:24:34Well, that's a good sign,
00:24:36because that is what happened.
00:24:38So, at least your memory hasn't been affected.
00:24:41Great.
00:24:42Why did you feel the need to hit me?
00:24:43I thought you were a prowler.
00:24:46What do you think you were doing, anyway?
00:24:48I came to see you.
00:24:49No, you were snooping.
00:24:51I'm a detective, you know that.
00:24:53I did have a prowler here last week.
00:24:57I did have a prowler here last week.
00:24:58Oi!
00:24:59What do you think you're doing?
00:25:00Uh, lost my keys.
00:25:02Like hell you did.
00:25:03Get out of here!
00:25:04He was casing the place,
00:25:06looking for a way to break in.
00:25:08Snooping.
00:25:09For what?
00:25:13Foreign objects.
00:25:14Such as?
00:25:15Let's just say,
00:25:17some things belong in this world,
00:25:18and some things don't.
00:25:27Hey.
00:25:29Hey.
00:25:31What's with you?
00:25:33Oh, I got a bit of a bump to the head.
00:25:36By the leading edge of a spaceship's prematurely open door?
00:25:39Uh-huh.
00:25:41I went to talk to Tash.
00:25:43I was in her shed.
00:25:44It was dark.
00:25:45She thought I was a prowler.
00:25:46She whacked me with a shovel.
00:25:50What a nasty bruise.
00:25:52No broken skin, though.
00:25:54Get checked for a concussion.
00:25:56Do you want to charge her?
00:25:57Well, technically I was trespassing.
00:26:00No warrant.
00:26:00Trying to get a peek at her flying saucer.
00:26:02Well, she did mention something about not belonging to this world.
00:26:06Daniel, come on now.
00:26:08Let it go.
00:26:08Did she get anything more useful than a possible concussion?
00:26:12Not much.
00:26:14This morning,
00:26:16are you sure you didn't see Jacob Lewis?
00:26:18I already told you no.
00:26:20Well, it's just that you
00:26:21burn a circle in the grass,
00:26:23and the guy you didn't like ends up dead in it.
00:26:26Put it over the head.
00:26:27I'm wondering if there's a pattern here.
00:26:30Was it your shovel?
00:26:31Well, if it was, I wasn't swinging it.
00:26:35Did you ever see him
00:26:36digging up the golf course?
00:26:38No.
00:26:40Although Janet reckoned she saw him,
00:26:42and there was some damage around the place.
00:26:43Although that'd be Alfie.
00:26:45Because I, if your course manager owns a pig,
00:26:47what do you expect?
00:26:48It is odd, though, isn't it?
00:26:52Why bring a pig
00:26:54to a golf course?
00:26:59And whatever Janet and Jacob were arguing about,
00:27:01I doubt it was the price of lost walls.
00:27:03Perhaps we should take a closer look
00:27:05at the three amigos,
00:27:08Chris Kramer,
00:27:10Kirk Rollins,
00:27:11and Luke Lamarro
00:27:13all snuck onto Brokenwood Golf Course today.
00:27:15Did they say why?
00:27:16To commune with the alien crop circle.
00:27:19Well, they were looking for something.
00:27:21Yeah, like that golf club.
00:27:22That, or whatever they used
00:27:24to kill Jacob Lewis
00:27:25earlier that morning.
00:27:26But why kill the caterer?
00:27:28Maybe it didn't matter who,
00:27:30just someone.
00:27:32Someone to die in the crop circle
00:27:34to prove their crazy beliefs.
00:27:38Aliens have come.
00:27:48Thanks, Frodo.
00:27:50How's your X-File progressing?
00:27:51The alien abduction line of inquiry
00:27:53is not something we're pursuing right now.
00:27:56Zelda won't be happy.
00:27:57I don't think Zelda will be truly happy
00:27:59until she's back aboard
00:28:00the Battlestar Galactica.
00:28:03I'll see you in there.
00:28:04I don't want to miss any revelations.
00:28:09You're not really going to go in there, are you?
00:28:11Bunch of crazies.
00:28:13Trudy, you're not catering the event.
00:28:15Thankfully.
00:28:16I wouldn't trust that fruitcake to pay up.
00:28:18You will get your money
00:28:19when we're satisfied with the service.
00:28:22Just shop Porky Pigeon Pizzas
00:28:23if you don't care about the quality.
00:28:24Hey, keep your voice down.
00:28:27They're not vegan.
00:28:28If there is no connection
00:28:30with the Cosmic Overlords tomorrow,
00:28:32it will be because
00:28:32my energy flows are disrupted.
00:28:34And I will hold you
00:28:35personally responsible.
00:28:38Now look what you've done.
00:28:39Hey, hey, pay up
00:28:40and I'll play it up.
00:28:42With venue hire,
00:28:43you can lock them out.
00:28:44With food, they can scoff and run.
00:28:46Did they pay out?
00:28:47Don't know.
00:28:48What I do know
00:28:49is they have desperation
00:28:50written all over them.
00:28:51So watch your backs.
00:28:53The Cosmic Overlords
00:28:55are observing the way we live
00:28:57and think.
00:28:59Right now,
00:29:00our culture
00:29:01is too destructive
00:29:03to be of any use to them.
00:29:04We must strive
00:29:05to achieve
00:29:06a greater sense of harmony.
00:29:08Only then
00:29:09will they begin
00:29:11to purify us.
00:29:13Now, Lucas, now.
00:29:15Reverend.
00:29:16Your mention
00:29:17of the aliens
00:29:18helping us to be better
00:29:20into planetary beings
00:29:21resonates with
00:29:22the Christian idea
00:29:24of humanity
00:29:24being prepared
00:29:25for eternal life.
00:29:28I wonder
00:29:29if God
00:29:30rather than
00:29:31your cosmic...
00:29:32Cosmic
00:29:33Overlords.
00:29:34Yes.
00:29:35I wonder
00:29:36if God
00:29:37might make
00:29:38a much better job
00:29:39of that transformation.
00:29:40I actually believe
00:29:41that God
00:29:42is an alien.
00:29:44A cosmic
00:29:45overlord.
00:29:46So,
00:29:46you might be on
00:29:47to something there,
00:29:48Reverend Christopher.
00:29:50How long
00:29:51did you commune
00:29:51with the cosmic overlords?
00:29:53It's hard to say.
00:29:56You lose all
00:29:57sense of time.
00:29:59It's like you're
00:29:59traveling into the past
00:30:01and the future
00:30:02simultaneously.
00:30:03So,
00:30:04in Earth time,
00:30:05I'd estimate
00:30:05around 10 days.
00:30:07Were the aliens
00:30:08naked?
00:30:10Yes.
00:30:11Were you
00:30:13naked?
00:30:14Christopher,
00:30:15I told you,
00:30:16I was at a music festival.
00:30:17Of course I was naked.
00:30:18But you know
00:30:18you can't handle this.
00:30:19Did the aliens
00:30:20have genitals?
00:30:21Christopher.
00:30:22Okay.
00:30:23How did you communicate
00:30:24with the aliens
00:30:26if there was
00:30:27a lack of
00:30:28common language?
00:30:30By touch.
00:30:33And if you must know,
00:30:34I loved it.
00:30:36And so did they.
00:30:38Alright, everyone.
00:30:40That concludes
00:30:40my presentation.
00:30:42Now,
00:30:43let's move on
00:30:44to planning
00:30:44tonight's event.
00:30:45Now that the lights
00:30:46and equipment
00:30:47are sorted,
00:30:48then there's only
00:30:49one thing left to do
00:30:50to attract
00:30:51an alien spaceship.
00:30:52Can I please
00:30:53have a volunteer
00:30:54from the audience
00:30:55to offer themselves
00:30:56up as an abductee?
00:30:59Oh, Christopher.
00:31:01No, sorry.
00:31:01We already have
00:31:02a volunteer
00:31:03and we don't want
00:31:04the Cosmic Overlord
00:31:05staff to choose
00:31:06between the two of you.
00:31:06Alright, everyone.
00:31:07Let's please give
00:31:09a round of applause
00:31:10to our hero,
00:31:11Luke.
00:31:12Yes.
00:31:14Luke,
00:31:15your bravery
00:31:15is truly commendable.
00:31:17If abducted,
00:31:19I can truly say
00:31:20that your life
00:31:21will be enriched
00:31:22beyond imagination.
00:31:24Bring it on.
00:31:25Yes.
00:31:28My abduction
00:31:29will be further proof
00:31:30not only
00:31:31that aliens exist,
00:31:33but they are here
00:31:34for good,
00:31:34not evil.
00:31:38I am willing
00:31:39to stake my life on it.
00:31:42Aliens are people too.
00:31:44Yes.
00:31:44Aliens are people too.
00:31:45Aliens are people too.
00:31:47Aliens are people too.
00:31:48Aliens are people too.
00:31:49Aliens are people too.
00:31:52Yeah.
00:31:53Hey, everyone.
00:31:55Thank you
00:31:55and see you tonight
00:31:56at the Designated Zone.
00:32:01Special bunch of humans.
00:32:03Cosmic-politan?
00:32:05Uh, no.
00:32:07Thanks.
00:32:07Very okay, Lena.
00:32:10Why were you two in there?
00:32:11Uh, we came to ask
00:32:12a couple of questions.
00:32:14While infiltrating our meeting.
00:32:15You two were on the golf course
00:32:17yesterday?
00:32:17Yes.
00:32:18You saw us.
00:32:18They're slow learners.
00:32:20Were you there earlier in the day?
00:32:21Say, around 7 a.m.?
00:32:22Wow.
00:32:23Diversion tactic.
00:32:24Who do you work for?
00:32:25Secret Service?
00:32:26CIA?
00:32:26CIB, actually.
00:32:28They like to keep it local.
00:32:29Well?
00:32:30Asleep in my motel.
00:32:32Alone?
00:32:32No.
00:32:33I was with my dreams.
00:32:35And you?
00:32:36I was with Zelda.
00:32:37Don't ask what he was doing, though.
00:32:38Eh, Christopher?
00:32:39X-rated.
00:32:41Is there a problem?
00:32:42The police, or should I say
00:32:44government plants,
00:32:45have been spying on us.
00:32:46We have nothing to hide.
00:32:48Good.
00:32:48Where were you yesterday?
00:32:49Between 7 and 8 a.m.?
00:32:50Uh, why are you looking at Luke?
00:32:52I've told you it was
00:32:53an aborted alien abduction.
00:32:55A triple A event?
00:32:56Yeah, we are the experts
00:32:57in this field.
00:32:58Trust us.
00:32:59I can handle this.
00:33:00I was at the motel
00:33:02prepping for my keynote speech
00:33:03tomorrow, titled
00:33:04Your neighbor is an alien.
00:33:06In fact, you're more than welcome
00:33:07to attend to hear my proof.
00:33:09And what proof would that be?
00:33:10Leaked top-secret documents
00:33:12detailing how aliens
00:33:13are living among us,
00:33:14here and now.
00:33:15We are so blinkered by normality
00:33:17that we can't see them.
00:33:18If Jacob Lewis saw them,
00:33:20I'm sure of it.
00:33:21Whatever Jacob saw
00:33:22killed him,
00:33:23but alien interference
00:33:24is unlikely.
00:33:26Then how do you explain
00:33:27the crop circle?
00:33:28Burn off with a flamethrower
00:33:29by a greenkeeper.
00:33:30Routine.
00:33:31Conspiracy of doubt.
00:33:33Ms. Belfan,
00:33:34you said you didn't know
00:33:34the victim,
00:33:35but you were seen
00:33:36arguing with him
00:33:37the night before he died.
00:33:39Hey, hey,
00:33:40and I'll play it up!
00:33:41Oh, sure, we met.
00:33:42However, I didn't know him,
00:33:44and we weren't arguing.
00:33:45We were negotiating.
00:33:46But you had a problem
00:33:47with Mr. Lewis.
00:33:48Oh, there was no problem.
00:33:49In fact,
00:33:49the food should be here soon.
00:33:51Sussan and Svrow,
00:33:52big night ahead.
00:33:59Kirk Rollins is a creep.
00:34:00Passionate in his delusion,
00:34:02at least.
00:34:06Rocky mistake.
00:34:07Should have parked
00:34:08the car closer
00:34:08to the front door.
00:34:10Sorry, this is
00:34:10Detective Shepard.
00:34:12Hey.
00:34:12Hello.
00:34:13I see you've had
00:34:14some success.
00:34:15It's a disaster.
00:34:16Jacob's famous
00:34:17truffle tofu pasta
00:34:19without any truffles.
00:34:21Wait, you forgot
00:34:22to add them.
00:34:22No, we've run out.
00:34:24I substituted mustard for it.
00:34:25I'm hoping they won't notice.
00:34:27Your supplier
00:34:28let you down?
00:34:29No idea.
00:34:29Jacob sourced them.
00:34:31I've got to get in there.
00:34:32See ya.
00:34:33Good luck.
00:34:35What do people
00:34:36with steel rods
00:34:36and pegs
00:34:38reading around trees
00:34:38have in common?
00:34:43What?
00:34:45Healthy.
00:34:51Jenna.
00:34:53How can I help?
00:34:55Jacob Lewis
00:34:56didn't supply you
00:34:57with golf balls,
00:34:57did he?
00:34:58I'm not sure
00:34:58what you're getting at.
00:34:59He was hunting
00:35:00for the same thing
00:35:01that you hunt for.
00:35:02And what would that be?
00:35:04Truffles.
00:35:06Jacob was digging
00:35:06for truffles,
00:35:07but unlike you,
00:35:09he didn't find any.
00:35:10Truffles?
00:35:11They need black walnut trees,
00:35:12don't they?
00:35:13Or English oaks?
00:35:14We don't have any
00:35:14on the course.
00:35:15You seem to know
00:35:16a lot about it.
00:35:18We can have a search team
00:35:19here within the hour
00:35:20with a warrant.
00:35:21If they find any,
00:35:22it could put you
00:35:22on the frame
00:35:23for Jacob Lewis' murder.
00:35:24How?
00:35:25Motive.
00:35:28The search team
00:35:29will do their best,
00:35:30but it could get messy.
00:35:32All right.
00:35:33All right.
00:35:36Guess we do this
00:35:36at the station, huh?
00:35:37But Alfie...
00:35:38Alfie seems happy to me.
00:35:39Come on.
00:35:40Let's see.
00:35:46Hello, Janet.
00:35:50Truffles.
00:35:52Found on the root system
00:35:53of some trees,
00:35:54including a certain
00:35:55variety of pine.
00:35:57What are they?
00:35:58They can fetch
00:35:59up to $3,500 per kilo.
00:36:01If one had their own supply,
00:36:03it's understandable
00:36:04that they might not like
00:36:05others helping themselves.
00:36:07And how far might one
00:36:09go to protect
00:36:10that supply?
00:36:14It was an accident.
00:36:16The discovery.
00:36:17Let us.
00:36:19Alfie, what have you found?
00:36:21Tuba Milano spora.
00:36:24Hairy god black truffles.
00:36:29Otherwise known as black gold.
00:36:32I'd seen Jacob
00:36:33offered truffled mushrooms
00:36:34on his menu,
00:36:35so I thought
00:36:35he might be interested.
00:36:37Offered him a private deal,
00:36:3840% of the going rate.
00:36:40He was happy.
00:36:42He expanded his menu
00:36:43around truffles,
00:36:44and the cafe was a success.
00:36:47Then I raised my prices.
00:36:48I'm only fair to share
00:36:49in his success.
00:36:50Why?
00:36:51What do you think
00:36:52you're doing?
00:36:53I know exhaustion
00:36:53when I see it.
00:36:54You're forcing me
00:36:55to take matters
00:36:55into my own hands.
00:36:56Well, you won't find
00:36:57anything here.
00:36:58Come on, Janet.
00:36:58The golf course
00:36:59has got to be your source.
00:37:00I mean, look at Alfie.
00:37:01He's onto one right now.
00:37:02You get off my land
00:37:03right now.
00:37:05But he got greedy.
00:37:06Stuck his little nose
00:37:07and I wouldn't let go.
00:37:08I don't know how many times
00:37:09I chased him off.
00:37:10I told you to get out of here.
00:37:12What ifs?
00:37:14What the hell, lady?
00:37:16Let the hell out of here.
00:37:17Go on.
00:37:18I detest it
00:37:19when people say whatever.
00:37:21What ifs?
00:37:23Like fingernails
00:37:23down a blackboard.
00:37:25Well, manners
00:37:26and bad grammar aside,
00:37:29you still seriously
00:37:30assaulted Jacob.
00:37:31Whatever.
00:37:32We had it coming.
00:37:34The blow to his leg
00:37:35or the blow to his head?
00:37:37The one that killed him.
00:37:40You had a weapon
00:37:41and you admit
00:37:42to beating him
00:37:43on the leg.
00:37:46I swear I only
00:37:47hit him the once.
00:37:49I would never
00:37:49take someone's life.
00:37:51Not for all the troubles
00:37:53in the world.
00:37:55Janet Grimm,
00:37:55we need you to remain
00:37:56in Brokenwood
00:37:57while we ascertain
00:37:58whether your pole
00:37:59delivered the fatal blow
00:38:00to the victim's head.
00:38:05If word gets out,
00:38:06it'll be like
00:38:07the Gold Rush days.
00:38:08To a chef
00:38:09that's end of a truffle
00:38:10awakens a hunger
00:38:11as primal as bloodlust.
00:38:13I'll be fending off
00:38:14a stampede of chefs
00:38:15in their kitchen hands
00:38:16mining up the fairways.
00:38:18It's just a little
00:38:19sideline, you see,
00:38:21for my retirement.
00:38:24I'd appreciate
00:38:24if we keep it
00:38:25just between ourselves.
00:38:50Do you see traumas?
00:38:53Yeah, it's Tash.
00:38:56I think I found something.
00:39:03Your alien friends
00:39:04must be very small
00:39:06to fly in that.
00:39:07You said they were big?
00:39:10Tash found this
00:39:1120 metres downhill
00:39:13from the crop circle.
00:39:14Fingerprints made a match
00:39:16on a Bud Johnson.
00:39:18Judging by this,
00:39:19I'm sure he's the man
00:39:20I saw on the fairway.
00:39:21Why wouldn't you own up
00:39:23to looking for a discus?
00:39:24When you used your discus
00:39:26to kill someone.
00:39:27Get Gina to check
00:39:29the curvature of that discus
00:39:30against Jacob's head injury.
00:39:32Bash with that,
00:39:33we'll do the job.
00:39:34And Bud Johnson
00:39:35has a prior for assault.
00:39:36He got 12 months
00:39:37home detention for it.
00:39:38His ankle bracelet
00:39:39came off six months ago.
00:39:40Hang on,
00:39:41I think I've read about him.
00:39:42Is discus
00:39:43a decathlon event?
00:39:44I think so.
00:39:47Yeah.
00:39:48Yeah, look.
00:39:49Brokenwood decathlon star
00:39:51flies high.
00:39:53Bud Johnson
00:39:54showcased his prowess
00:39:56at the National Athletic Championships
00:39:58earning a commendable
00:39:59fourth place.
00:40:13Hi, Bud Johnson?
00:40:15Yeah.
00:40:16Detective Kristen Sims.
00:40:18Brokenwood CIB.
00:40:19I don't believe you've already
00:40:20met my colleague,
00:40:21DC Chalmers.
00:40:22We think we have
00:40:23some lost property
00:40:24belonging to you.
00:40:25It's a track and field discus
00:40:27that was found
00:40:27on the golf course.
00:40:28It could be mine.
00:40:29Can I see it?
00:40:30Yeah, it's back at the station.
00:40:31Why?
00:40:32We were hoping
00:40:33you could help us with that.
00:40:35How?
00:40:35A man was found dead
00:40:37on the golf course
00:40:37this morning.
00:40:38So I lose a discus
00:40:39and next minute
00:40:40I'm a murder suspect?
00:40:41Oh, you didn't say that.
00:40:43Yeah, but you're thinking it.
00:40:44Today when I called out to you
00:40:45you ran off
00:40:46and then you drove away
00:40:47from me in a reckless manner.
00:40:49Why?
00:40:49Yeah, look, I've learnt
00:40:50the hard way.
00:40:51If I don't say any words
00:40:51you can't twist them.
00:40:53Surely that's only a problem
00:40:54if you've actually
00:40:55done something wrong.
00:40:57I suggest you come back
00:40:58to the station with us
00:40:59and make a statement
00:40:59about how your discus
00:41:01ended up on the golf course.
00:41:03Recorded words
00:41:03are harder to manipulate.
00:41:13Were you on the golf course
00:41:14early yesterday morning
00:41:15around sunrise?
00:41:17Yes.
00:41:18What were you doing there?
00:41:19I was discus training.
00:41:21And did you see anyone else
00:41:22at the golf course
00:41:23during that time?
00:41:24No.
00:41:25Why did you leave
00:41:26your discus there?
00:41:27I just made my first throw
00:41:29of the morning
00:41:29when I got a call
00:41:30about an accident.
00:41:31To get the job
00:41:31I got to be the first
00:41:32toey in the scene.
00:41:33I didn't have time
00:41:34to look for my discus.
00:41:35What fairway number
00:41:36were you on?
00:41:37No idea.
00:41:38The man was found dead
00:41:39on the golf course.
00:41:40He died from a severe
00:41:41head injury
00:41:42at the time you were there.
00:41:47We know you have
00:41:48a conviction for assault.
00:41:50We know that the man
00:41:51you assaulted
00:41:52was in hospital
00:41:53for over a week.
00:41:55Do you know why
00:41:55I assaulted him?
00:41:57Enlighten us.
00:41:58The drunk prick
00:41:58was my neighbour's ex.
00:41:59He came to beat her up again.
00:42:01I made sure
00:42:02it was the last time
00:42:02he hurt her.
00:42:04I've done my
00:42:05anger management course
00:42:06and I'll admit
00:42:06the ninth step
00:42:07is the hardest.
00:42:08What is the ninth step?
00:42:09To develop empathy
00:42:11for the other's perspective.
00:42:12I still don't have
00:42:13empathy for my neighbour's ex.
00:42:15But I'm trying
00:42:16to change my ways.
00:42:17That's why I'm
00:42:17training so hard.
00:42:18It's a way of releasing
00:42:19all the negativity.
00:42:21Do you know this man?
00:42:26I don't remember him.
00:42:35Gina, you want to see me?
00:42:37Always, Mike.
00:42:38Good evening.
00:42:39Evening.
00:42:40The curvature of this
00:42:41type of discus
00:42:42matches the victim's
00:42:43head injury.
00:42:47The dick athlete,
00:42:49Bud Johnson.
00:42:50I've seen his photo
00:42:51in the paper.
00:42:53Handsome.
00:42:53He reminds me of a
00:42:55volleyball player
00:42:55I knew in Vladivostok.
00:42:56Well, Bud Johnson
00:42:58was convicted
00:42:59for serious assault
00:43:00and depending on
00:43:01what you tell me
00:43:01perhaps more
00:43:03convictions will follow.
00:43:05I will do what
00:43:06I can for you, Mike.
00:43:07If you allow me
00:43:08to show you my melons.
00:43:09Uh, sure.
00:43:14Imagine this melon
00:43:15is the victim's head.
00:43:26A very accurate
00:43:27throw that struck
00:43:28at full speed
00:43:29could also kill.
00:43:31World champion
00:43:32discus throws
00:43:33travel at speeds
00:43:34of 26 meters
00:43:35per second,
00:43:36which is
00:43:3793.6 kilometers
00:43:38per hour.
00:43:39So it's like
00:43:40being hit in the head
00:43:40by a very small car.
00:43:42A two-cagey car
00:43:43with no wheels
00:43:44that flies, yes.
00:43:45The impact force
00:43:46at high velocity
00:43:47leads to certain
00:43:48cranial fracture.
00:43:52If Bud Johnson
00:43:53threw his discus
00:43:54from a very short range
00:43:56it would have been
00:43:57a lethal act.
00:44:00But did he have intent?
00:44:02Bud Johnson stated
00:44:04he didn't know
00:44:04Jacob Lewis
00:44:05so where's the motive?
00:44:07So, uh,
00:44:08freak accident?
00:44:09Well, if you're training
00:44:10you're going to watch
00:44:11the full flight of your throat
00:44:12to see how far it flies.
00:44:13You would have had
00:44:14to have seen it
00:44:15strike Jacob.
00:44:16teach him
00:44:17or exit him
00:44:18to either way
00:44:18it's a hit and run.
00:44:23Let's bring him in
00:44:24tomorrow.
00:44:46I fail to see
00:44:48a meaningful distinction
00:44:49between belief
00:44:50in extraterrestrial life
00:44:51and belief in God.
00:44:52there is no empirical
00:44:53evidence to suggest
00:44:54that either exists.
00:44:55I'm not concerned
00:44:56with the belief
00:44:56it's the worshipping
00:44:58of aliens
00:44:58that's the issue.
00:44:59Worship is belief
00:45:00times a few degrees.
00:45:02Roger, you're hogging
00:45:03the blank.
00:45:04Lucas, please, I'm not.
00:45:14When did Luke learn alienese?
00:45:16I taught him yesterday.
00:45:18Uh-huh.
00:45:20Out of all of us,
00:45:21I think that Luke
00:45:22is the best mate,
00:45:23for want of a better word.
00:45:26He's strong mentally,
00:45:28physically.
00:45:30you feel a little feeble
00:45:31in comparison.
00:45:32But you're not at all.
00:45:34I haven't communed
00:45:35with aliens in 16 years.
00:45:38I make you all
00:45:39follow me up and down
00:45:40the country,
00:45:41promising alien encounters
00:45:43that never evacuate.
00:45:44But they will.
00:45:47I wonder if Luke
00:45:48would be a better leader.
00:45:49If I stood down,
00:45:51we could make him president.
00:45:52No way.
00:45:54We follow you
00:45:55because we believe in you.
00:45:58There could be
00:45:58a million reasons
00:45:59why aliens haven't visited us
00:46:01and none of them
00:46:01would involve you.
00:46:02You remain our one degree
00:46:03of separation
00:46:04to another life form.
00:46:06You're phenomenal.
00:46:08Really?
00:46:09Yes.
00:46:10Yesterday,
00:46:10Jacob Lewis came
00:46:11this close to being abducted.
00:46:12That is no coincidence.
00:46:14They are looking
00:46:15for you.
00:46:18They are coming.
00:46:19But it'll be you,
00:46:21not Luke.
00:46:22Who they'd beam up
00:46:23into their ship.
00:46:24And I wouldn't say no.
00:46:27Thank you, Christopher.
00:46:46Nicely.
00:46:47Lost together.
00:46:48Amazing.
00:46:49Here we go.
00:46:50Oh!
00:46:51Oh!
00:46:55Ah!
00:46:57Ah!
00:47:21Oh, man, it's too much.
00:47:52I take it this was the venue Arpt chose for their reach-out?
00:47:56Interesting choice given Jacob Lewis's demise.
00:47:59This is my fault.
00:48:01Why?
00:48:02I found both bodies.
00:48:04I tapped into some kind of dark energy vortex.
00:48:07Well, I think that was just a weird coincidence.
00:48:12It's draining time again.
00:48:14Really?
00:48:17No way.
00:48:18I'm done with speed golf.
00:48:20Water count's too high.
00:48:23Time of death?
00:48:25Judging by his body temperature may be between 3 and 5 a.m.
00:48:30How similar are his injuries to the first victim?
00:48:33He has a head injury on his right temple and symmetrical marking on his forehead.
00:48:38But look, Mike.
00:48:39He has burn marks on both hands.
00:48:44Course?
00:48:45Too early to say.
00:48:52Did you burn another circle yesterday on Fairway 6?
00:48:56No.
00:48:57Did you see anyone this morning on the course?
00:48:59No.
00:49:00Was the circle a perfect circle?
00:49:04So, who died?
00:49:06I can't say.
00:49:08It could have been the thief.
00:49:09What thief?
00:49:10I just called into your station to report it.
00:49:12Last night, someone broke in here and stole my flamethrower.
00:49:15And my favourite drop cloth.
00:49:17Hence the tarpaulin.
00:49:19Well, modesty is important.
00:49:20I'll get fingerprints in here to see if they can pick anything up.
00:49:23Until then, don't touch anything.
00:49:26But I already put the tarp on, so technically I've touched it.
00:49:29I can see that.
00:49:33So, if I was to slowly approach that shape and pull the tarp off, would you try and hit me
00:49:39with a shovel?
00:49:39I truly am sorry about that.
00:49:44No, hold on.
00:49:45I'll do it.
00:49:56You can't tell anyone.
00:49:58It's a surprise for me, kids.
00:49:59It's going to be a float for their school fundraiser.
00:50:02So, when you said some things don't belong in this world...
00:50:05I just don't want Janet finding out.
00:50:08Last year, I made a Thomas the Tank Engine.
00:50:10You should have seen this thing.
00:50:12It was so good.
00:50:13It was...
00:50:14Anyway, Janet busted me.
00:50:16She accused me of using this shed for moonlighting and she threatened to fire me.
00:50:20She can't know.
00:50:21I can work with that.
00:50:24And you know it's perfect, right?
00:50:26Really?
00:50:27Yeah.
00:50:28It was absolutely perfect.
00:50:35Tash claims she didn't burn the circle, but her flamethrower and her drop cloth were stolen last night.
00:50:41Shut the entire course down.
00:50:43I'll be there.
00:50:43I'll put a search team together.
00:50:46Gina, can you get me some grass up?
00:50:48Mike, you should know by now that I always know what you want.
00:50:51What the hell's going on here?
00:50:52Another person has been found dead.
00:50:54Walk with me.
00:50:55Who was it?
00:50:57And what's all this gear on my fairway?
00:50:59It's too early to tell.
00:51:00Have you seen anyone on the golf course this morning?
00:51:02Your cop on the gate turned away the first players about 20 minutes ago.
00:51:05Okay.
00:51:05Have you been on the fairway this morning?
00:51:06No.
00:51:08We need to close the entire golf course until further notice.
00:51:12When can I get my walking pole back?
00:51:15When you stop assaulting people with it.
00:51:19Get on with it, man.
00:51:21A little more.
00:51:22A little more.
00:51:23Oh, too much.
00:51:25Uh, Ms. Belfin.
00:51:27Could we have a word, please?
00:51:29This is about Luke, isn't it?
00:51:31He's been abducted.
00:51:32We came by looking this morning, but we didn't get a warm reception.
00:51:35Did you see flashing lights indicating the spaceship's departure?
00:51:39He's already said he's been told to say nothing.
00:51:41Maybe he's a robocop that missed getting the speech chip installed.
00:51:43Kirk, please be respectful.
00:51:44I think his silence is a really good sign.
00:51:47The cops are in full-on cover-up mode.
00:51:48Luke has been abducted.
00:51:50He's probably communing with the cosmic overlords right now.
00:51:54Detective, please.
00:51:55There is no need to cover this up.
00:51:57It's positive news.
00:52:00Luke Lomaro's body was found on the course this morning.
00:52:04Oh, damn.
00:52:05Damn, damn.
00:52:06My god, it's another triple-A event.
00:52:08There's no evidence to suggest that.
00:52:10Two deaths, days apart, at the same location?
00:52:13Of course it's another abduction attempt.
00:52:15Is there a crop circle?
00:52:16Once again, there was a burnt circle of grass, which appears to be man-made.
00:52:21But you can't be sure.
00:52:22How stupid are you?
00:52:23Can you not see the parallels?
00:52:24Did he have a head injury?
00:52:26And an unusual marking on his forehead.
00:52:28There you go.
00:52:29God damn it, we missed it.
00:52:30Damn it.
00:52:32Zelda, could I look at your model spaceship again, please?
00:52:34Yeah, Christopher, please.
00:52:38Do you think he suffered?
00:52:40No.
00:52:40I should never left him alone.
00:52:44Oh!
00:52:45Identical.
00:52:46That says it all.
00:52:47They came for me after all they're here.
00:52:49Oh!
00:52:50Oh!
00:52:52And Detective Shepard, please follow me.
00:52:56But why is he dead?
00:52:58Well, that's a good question.
00:52:59And when we find the offender, we will be asking them that.
00:53:02Just as a matter of interest.
00:53:04Where were you two this morning between 3 and 5 AM?
00:53:07Asleep in my motel, missing all the action.
00:53:09Alone with your dreams, I guess.
00:53:11You got it.
00:53:11Mm-hmm.
00:53:12And you, Christopher?
00:53:13Ripping up the sheets, eh, Chris?
00:53:15Yeah, I was with Zelda.
00:53:17Oh!
00:53:18Oh!
00:53:19Oh!
00:53:21Oh!
00:53:21Christopher, you are something out of this world.
00:53:25Yes, I was, uh, occupied.
00:53:28Stop pointing your finger at us.
00:53:29They killed Luke.
00:53:31They killed Luke because he was going to reveal top secret intel today in his keynote speech.
00:53:35He had proof that aliens live among us.
00:53:38When you say they...
00:53:39You!
00:53:40They!
00:53:40Them!
00:53:41The SIS, CIA, FBI, governments.
00:53:45Luke's blood is on their hands.
00:53:47Your hands.
00:53:48Every last one of them.
00:53:50Your overhead projector's on fire.
00:53:52Here's the original.
00:53:54Luke's marking is exactly the same as the crop circle the aliens made in 2010 at the music festival
00:54:00when I was abducted.
00:54:02And you were found in that circle?
00:54:04Yes.
00:54:05Oh, my God, it's a message.
00:54:08Marking Luke with your design is saying they want you.
00:54:11Why would they kill him?
00:54:12Well, miscalculation.
00:54:13Unintentional, I'm sure.
00:54:14Military assassination, more likely.
00:54:16Everyone's opinion is welcome.
00:54:19Down at the station.
00:54:29Sir, what were you guys doing at the golf course last night?
00:54:31I was in charge of the lighting and sound system.
00:54:34And playing the music?
00:54:35Yeah, playing the music.
00:54:38Impressive.
00:54:39Yeah.
00:54:40I did great one piano as a kid.
00:54:41I know my way around the keys.
00:54:42It's not about how many notes.
00:54:44That's playing them or feeling.
00:54:46And staying awake.
00:54:47Oh, come on, break too soon.
00:54:48Todd!
00:54:50You had one job.
00:54:52Look, playing score intergalactically could be my big break.
00:54:55Like, the biggest stage.
00:54:55Actually, the biggest.
00:54:56And it's still expanding.
00:54:59How well did you know the victim, Luke Lemaro?
00:55:01Uh, not at all.
00:55:03Nah, but he was awesome.
00:55:04Yeah, yeah, real nice guy.
00:55:05Yeah, hanging in there even after Zelda shut it down and sent us home.
00:55:08Yeah, so brave.
00:55:09Paid the ultimate price.
00:55:11For man and alien kind.
00:55:20I understand that Luke was some kind of offering to attract the aliens.
00:55:25But not a sacrificial one.
00:55:27Luke was to be abducted, just as I was, to be used as an interspecies cultural exchange
00:55:34before being returned to us safely.
00:55:36Was there anyone in your group, perhaps, Earth-based, shall we say, who had any issues with Luke?
00:55:43Of course not.
00:55:44We were all rooting for him.
00:55:46And we all wanted him to succeed.
00:55:48Did you and Luke get along?
00:55:50Sure.
00:55:51He's a believer.
00:55:52A bit mainstream, but committed.
00:55:55You're very committed too, aren't you, Kirk?
00:55:57I believe in alien life.
00:55:59It's no crime.
00:56:01I didn't say it was.
00:56:04Why didn't you volunteer to be abducted?
00:56:07My time will come.
00:56:09Zelda has the connection.
00:56:11She believed Luke was the one.
00:56:13How did that make you feel?
00:56:16Fine.
00:56:16Your relationship with Christopher Kramer.
00:56:19He's such a sweet man.
00:56:21Yet you didn't choose for him to be abducted.
00:56:25He wasn't ready.
00:56:27Christopher can be a little anxious at times, and the aliens seek constancy.
00:56:33Or maybe you were fearful of losing him.
00:56:35Why would I think that?
00:56:36Perhaps you knew that whoever went into that circle would die.
00:56:41How well did you get on with Luke?
00:56:44As well as I did with any of the other members.
00:56:47Do you know if he had any enemies?
00:56:49Anyone he didn't get on with?
00:56:51No.
00:56:52Well, yes.
00:56:54Actually, um, maybe.
00:56:58Is that multiple choice?
00:57:03Do you have something you want to share?
00:57:07Do I want to?
00:57:08No.
00:57:10Should I?
00:57:11I don't know.
00:57:12Will I?
00:57:13I mean, I could.
00:57:16Look, this has to stay between us.
00:57:18Well, that depends on whether or not what you've got to say is any value.
00:57:22If it's just more conspiracy theory, then sure, it won't go any further.
00:57:25No, it's not.
00:57:25Really, Christopher?
00:57:27Are you sure you're not just wasting my time?
00:57:30What I say and believe has value.
00:57:32I am a fully integrated member of society.
00:57:35Then prove it.
00:57:36What do you know?
00:57:38I saw Luke and Kirk the other night.
00:57:41Arguing.
00:57:42About alien weaponry, or?
00:57:44I don't know.
00:57:45I couldn't make it out, but it was heated and tense.
00:57:50When was this?
00:57:52Three nights ago.
00:57:53Where?
00:57:54Here.
00:57:55On the side of his station.
00:57:57What were they doing?
00:57:59Kirk had petrol.
00:58:01He wanted to burn the station down into Luke's front stone.
00:58:04And why would Kirk want to do that?
00:58:06Because he knows a lot.
00:58:08Every station has one.
00:58:09It's criminal.
00:58:10Like a scrambling device.
00:58:11An electronic beacon.
00:58:13Sprays the night sky to interfere with the extraterrestrial spacecraft.
00:58:17Police stations don't have those.
00:58:19I'm starting to wonder about you.
00:58:21You committed or not?
00:58:24And you just happened to be across the road while Kirk was trying to torch the place.
00:58:31Yes.
00:58:33Doing my best to be a fully integrated member of society.
00:58:43There you go.
00:58:4511.27pm.
00:58:46Three nights ago.
00:58:49Chris Kramer was telling the truth.
00:58:51First time for everything.
00:58:57A witness claims that several nights ago you and Luke Lamarro had an altercation outside this police station.
00:59:04He was preventing you from committing arson.
00:59:10We have it on CCTV.
00:59:17So what?
00:59:19Undo it?
00:59:20But you were clearly very angry with Luke.
00:59:22Yeah.
00:59:23He stopped me from setting things right.
00:59:26I know what goes on here.
00:59:27I know you have an electronic beacon on the roof of this building sending interference scrambling into planetary communications.
00:59:33That interference is probably what caused the malfunction on the spacecraft which led to the death of Luke and the
00:59:38other guy.
00:59:40It's you who are responsible.
00:59:42You're right, Kirk.
00:59:43We do have an electronic beacon on the roof.
00:59:45Okay.
00:59:46You actually admit it.
00:59:47It's called a shortwave radio.
00:59:49We use it in emergencies in a bid to help save lives.
00:59:53You're going to be charged with attempted arson.
00:59:55What?
00:59:56I didn't do it.
00:59:57I think the key word here is attempted.
01:00:00I'll be back shortly with the paperwork.
01:00:04Wow.
01:00:05And I thought Chris Kramer was crazy.
01:00:08Hmm.
01:00:09We still don't have enough.
01:00:13Kirk and Luke would butt heads occasionally, differing opinions, but Kirk would never go that far not to hurt Luke.
01:00:20Well, he was prepared to burn down the police station.
01:00:23Yeah.
01:00:24Posturing, I'm sure.
01:00:26Back to last night, you called off the ceremony.
01:00:28Why?
01:00:29We were feeling the cold.
01:00:31I'm guessing it was around...
01:00:322am.
01:00:39Fear I have failed you again.
01:00:41It's not your fault.
01:00:43Maybe it's Luke.
01:00:44He's just not ready.
01:00:49Everyone, listen up.
01:00:52Frodo, please.
01:00:56I think we should call it a night.
01:00:58I apologize to you all.
01:01:00I've led you all down another blind alley.
01:01:04In this case, a cold, dark alley without cosmic light.
01:01:10Tomorrow I will resign as the president of...
01:01:12Zelda, you can't.
01:01:13No, it's too late.
01:01:14I'm too tired to talk.
01:01:15Let's pack up and go.
01:01:18Wait, wait, wait.
01:01:20I'm staying.
01:01:21I'm certain they're coming for me.
01:01:24I'm happy to stay on my own.
01:01:26Oh, gosh.
01:01:27Luke, your dedication is so moving.
01:01:32I want you to take over from me.
01:01:34You must lead up from here.
01:01:36But you...
01:01:38Just...
01:01:38Think about it.
01:01:46I'll say a big conflitazzi to the masters from you.
01:01:51Thank you, Luke.
01:01:52You are a hero.
01:02:00Come on, people. Let's go.
01:02:06Look at this.
01:02:07Oh.
01:02:09Oh.
01:02:12Oh.
01:02:18That was the last time I ever saw Luke.
01:02:22So self-absorbed I didn't even look back.
01:02:25He's such a brave man.
01:02:29You and Christopher, you went home?
01:02:31Back to Christopher's.
01:02:32Yes.
01:02:37Excuse me.
01:02:41Kristen Sims?
01:02:42Hi.
01:02:43It's Freya.
01:02:50I hope you didn't call me here just to help with these.
01:02:54I'm so over it.
01:02:55You know, washing dishes is a little outside my job description.
01:03:00Lucky you.
01:03:04So...
01:03:04It could be nothing.
01:03:06Try me.
01:03:07I was unloading the car just before.
01:03:09Need a hand there?
01:03:12Um...
01:03:12No, I'm all good.
01:03:13So that thing the other day with your boss?
01:03:15It's no biggie, right?
01:03:17Jacob's dead.
01:03:18I know.
01:03:19And it had nothing to do with me.
01:03:20I didn't even know the guy.
01:03:22If you say so.
01:03:23I do.
01:03:24So we all good?
01:03:28What did he mean by that thing the other day?
01:03:32Jacob used to park outside on the yellow lines.
01:03:35He'd always get tickets.
01:03:36Then a few days ago he was getting towed and it got ugly.
01:03:40You can't tow me, man.
01:03:41This is my restaurant.
01:03:42I park here all the time.
01:03:43Hey!
01:03:43Hey!
01:03:44You're a thug, you know what I mean?
01:03:46Cross the line, mate.
01:03:47Don't ever start while you can't finish.
01:03:49Just breathe.
01:03:51Breathe.
01:03:52Don't ever grab someone from behind.
01:03:54That was a dumb move.
01:03:59There may be nothing, but...
01:04:01No.
01:04:01Thanks, Frey.
01:04:02You've been a big help.
01:04:03Oh, and the dishes?
01:04:04What if I could?
01:04:14Hi, bud.
01:04:16We need to talk.
01:04:25You lied to me, bud.
01:04:29About not knowing Jacob Lewis.
01:04:32We have a witness who saw you tow his car from outside his burger restaurant.
01:04:38So do you admit to towing Jacob Lewis' car?
01:04:42Yes.
01:04:43And do you admit to punching Mr Lewis in the stomach?
01:04:48Do you know why I like my job?
01:04:51Tell me.
01:04:52Because it's a job.
01:04:53After my conviction, it was the only job I could get.
01:04:56I need a job to pay my rent while I'm training.
01:04:59I'm training to be a decathlete.
01:05:00That's my dream.
01:05:01I wouldn't do anything to jeopardise that.
01:05:03That doesn't really answer my question.
01:05:05Did the witness also say it was self-defence?
01:05:07That Lewis had a go at me first, or nah, they left that part out?
01:05:14I'm going to ask you again.
01:05:16The day before yesterday morning, did you see Jacob Lewis between 7am and 8am at the Brokenwood Golf Course?
01:05:23No.
01:05:25After you got the towing call out, which direction did you leave the course?
01:05:29Towards the car park, of course.
01:05:35If this is the car park, where were you training?
01:05:39I don't know.
01:05:39I'm not a golfer.
01:05:41I'm just looking for open space, you know?
01:05:43Jacob Lewis was found dead on the 13th fairway.
01:05:47We know he was killed by a blow to the head, the wound matching the curvature of your discus.
01:05:53We know that you and the victim argued the day before, which leads us to believe there was some intent
01:05:59behind the discus hitting Mr Lewis.
01:06:01No.
01:06:02Oh, come on bud.
01:06:04You lost your cool that had happened before.
01:06:07I videoed myself.
01:06:09What?
01:06:09I filmed myself, so I can watch my form.
01:06:15It was a new perfect throw by the way.
01:06:18Felt right on the money.
01:06:21That's when I got the phone call.
01:06:25See ya bud?
01:06:26Yeah.
01:06:26Free for a job?
01:06:27Yeah, for sure.
01:06:28Car v car.
01:06:29No, tell us.
01:06:30I'll tell them more.
01:06:31I'll be there fine.
01:06:32Copy.
01:06:38We will need a copy of this video.
01:06:40The weapon could be a golf club, but hard to say without the actual club to make a match.
01:06:45But the head injury was fatal.
01:06:47No, Mike.
01:06:49The cause of that was cardiac arrest.
01:06:51He suffered severe arrhythmia.
01:06:52Caused by?
01:06:53It was triggered by an electrical shock.
01:06:55See?
01:06:56This indicates the entry point of the electrical current.
01:07:01Given the storm last night, could he have been struck by lightning?
01:07:04Highly unlikely.
01:07:05For him to be struck by a lightning bolt on both hands, he must have been playing volleyball.
01:07:10Volleyball?
01:07:11Like this or this.
01:07:14I love volleyball.
01:07:15Have you ever played, Mike?
01:07:16Not in a very long time.
01:07:19Could Luke's hands and the grass have been burned by the same source?
01:07:23No.
01:07:24A naked flame burned the grass.
01:07:26Oh.
01:07:28And the mark on his head?
01:07:31Freshly done.
01:07:32Within the last 18 hours.
01:07:33The ink is mark a pen.
01:07:37Beach volleyball is my favorite.
01:07:39The men wear swimming briefs.
01:07:41In Russia, they are called plafki.
01:07:44And they are?
01:07:45Budgie smugglers, Mike.
01:07:47Very athletic.
01:07:49keep.
01:07:50Keep your feet thick.
01:08:04That's it!
01:08:0768 metres!
01:08:21The tow truck call-out centre verified that Bud Johnson received a call from them at 7.04am.
01:08:28And his video puts him exactly here.
01:08:31He's our man.
01:08:39We're satisfied there was no intent to injure Jacob Luce.
01:08:43And I swear no one's that accurate.
01:08:4668 metres.
01:08:47At the point of contact, yes.
01:08:49Wow.
01:08:50I know.
01:08:51I looked it up.
01:08:53Connor Bell's New Zealand record is 69.5 metres.
01:08:57Repeat 68 and you'll qualify for the Commonwealth Games.
01:09:01I still killed a bloke though, didn't I?
01:09:07It played out then.
01:09:09Death by a careless use of an Olympic-approved sporting implement.
01:09:13One down, one to go.
01:09:16Are we calling it?
01:09:17It's another homicide.
01:09:18Luke Lamara was electrocuted.
01:09:21Senior?
01:09:22Oh, thanks.
01:09:25Is that what a Belfin's on her way in?
01:09:28Do you perhaps need Christopher as your support person?
01:09:32No, no, I'm fine.
01:09:35We've been so shaken by Luke's death.
01:09:39He's struggling as well, I can tell.
01:09:42And, uh...
01:09:43I'm struggling to conceal it from him.
01:09:48What do you need to conceal?
01:09:52That, um...
01:09:55I'm responsible for Luke's death.
01:09:58Both deaths in actuality.
01:10:01Go on.
01:10:03It started with a seed of negativity.
01:10:06Depressive thoughts stemming from the disappointment that I have been unable to physically reconnect with the aliens.
01:10:13And from that seed, there has been slow but malignant growth.
01:10:17That growth creates negative energy vibrations which in turn quaver out into the cosmos.
01:10:27The rest I'm sure I don't need to explain.
01:10:31No, uh...
01:10:32Please enlighten us.
01:10:34Well, the aliens absorb those vibrations.
01:10:36They involuntarily act upon them by travelling here, creating an interspecies, co-killing, unwittingly orchestrated by myself.
01:10:51They are the bullet.
01:10:53But I am most definitely the gun.
01:10:57Well, it may come as some relief to know that, with regards to Jacob Lewis's death, there was no alien
01:11:06involvement.
01:11:07You seem sure.
01:11:08I am.
01:11:09Mr. Lewis was killed by an Earth-based object.
01:11:12An accident.
01:11:13I detect cynicism, detective, and I thought we were past that.
01:11:18Not cynicism.
01:11:19Fact.
01:11:20And Luke?
01:11:22That is more perplexing.
01:11:26I left him out there like a lamb to the slaughter.
01:11:31I lay awake trying to stop those negative vibrations emanating.
01:11:36Holding them back.
01:11:37Good to no avail.
01:11:40With Christopher.
01:11:42What?
01:11:43You lay awake with Christopher.
01:11:45I didn't hear him.
01:11:47But you were in bed together.
01:11:49Did he tell you that?
01:11:52Awkwardly, yes.
01:11:53Yeah, I was with Zelda.
01:11:57Occupied.
01:11:58Christopher, bless him.
01:12:00What do you mean?
01:12:01Well, Christopher is an interesting man.
01:12:03But he's not ready for some things.
01:12:06And nor am I in that regard.
01:12:10Even though he's your fiancé?
01:12:14Christopher would like to be my fiancé.
01:12:17But, well, perhaps one day when we're both ready.
01:12:22I'm sorry, I'm confused.
01:12:25I'm still married.
01:12:26I have been for 16 years.
01:12:40Ah, just the man we wanted to see.
01:12:42Well, I don't want to see you.
01:12:43Ah, Kirk, the feeling is entirely mutual.
01:12:46We're not interested in you, you can bugger off.
01:12:47You can't say that.
01:12:48I just did.
01:12:49Go on.
01:12:49Get out of here.
01:12:54Convention's finished.
01:12:54We're holding a visual for Luke tonight.
01:12:56A few questions first.
01:12:57Sure.
01:12:58I'll just put this in the car.
01:12:59No, no.
01:13:00Questions first.
01:13:02Sure, yeah.
01:13:04Questions are good.
01:13:04They provide answers like,
01:13:07how long is a piece of string...
01:13:08And what's in the box?
01:13:11No idea.
01:13:11It's not my box.
01:13:12I'm just holding it for a friend.
01:13:13Oh, let's take a look then, shall we?
01:13:18Allow me.
01:13:22Hey!
01:13:24Hey!
01:13:24Hey!
01:13:26Where's the height?
01:13:27Hey!
01:13:31Come on.
01:13:37You've got nothing.
01:13:39You can try, but you'll never take me down.
01:13:43What was that last bit?
01:13:44I didn't quite hear you.
01:13:45This is your car, Christopher?
01:13:47No!
01:13:52No.
01:14:02Oh, Christopher.
01:14:34Sorry to keep you waiting, Christopher.
01:14:36We just had to verify a few things.
01:14:44This is the property of the Broken Wood Golf Course.
01:14:48How did it end up in your car?
01:14:51Never seen it before?
01:14:53Even though your fingerprints are all over it.
01:14:55Strange.
01:14:58This drop cloth and this golf club,
01:15:01again, the property of the Broken Wood Golf Club,
01:15:04were also in your car.
01:15:05How do you explain that?
01:15:08Obviously, someone's broken into my vehicle
01:15:10and put them both there.
01:15:11Who?
01:15:12I think it might be Kirk.
01:15:14Why would Kirk want to do that?
01:15:17Ask him.
01:15:18We might just do that.
01:15:20And while we're at it,
01:15:21ask him how we managed to get your fingerprints
01:15:23all over the items.
01:15:24But are they really?
01:15:26Yep.
01:15:27Here they are.
01:15:29And the other interesting thing about this
01:15:31is the grass residue.
01:15:33There is a pattern.
01:15:36Here to here.
01:15:40It's like the grass has all been flattened
01:15:42in the one direction.
01:15:43A flow from the outside to the center.
01:15:47Which in itself might mean very little, except...
01:15:51This grass is a definite match to the samples from the fake crop circle.
01:15:57That place is this drop cloth at the crime scene.
01:16:03From now on, no more extraterrestrial excuses, Christopher.
01:16:08We're dealing in facts.
01:16:10Your fingerprints on stolen items traceable to the crime scene.
01:16:14Did you kill Luke Lamarro?
01:16:18No.
01:16:19Christopher, where were you between 3 and 5 a.m. this morning?
01:16:22In my home.
01:16:24Alone?
01:16:25No, I was with Zelda.
01:16:28In the same room or separate?
01:16:29The same room.
01:16:30In the bedroom?
01:16:31Yes, of course.
01:16:32Was she sleeping?
01:16:34Why does that matter?
01:16:35If she was sleeping, she wouldn't be able to verify
01:16:38that you remained in the house between 3 and 5 a.m.
01:16:43She...
01:16:43was not sleeping.
01:16:45You sure about that?
01:16:46Yes, of course, because...
01:16:48we were...
01:16:50you know...
01:16:51What?
01:16:55We were...
01:16:57expressing our...
01:16:58love.
01:16:59Sex.
01:17:01For two hours.
01:17:04Yes.
01:17:05Two hours.
01:17:07Wow.
01:17:07That's a lot of love.
01:17:09Given you had such a big night waiting for a close encounter with alien kind.
01:17:13Well, she was feeling down and she, um, she needed comfort.
01:17:17The thing is, Christopher, that doesn't really line up with Zelda's version of events.
01:17:21I'm still married.
01:17:23Married to...
01:17:25When I was abducted aboard the alien spacecraft,
01:17:29there was a marriage ceremony.
01:17:32Sadly, we didn't have time to consummate.
01:17:35So I have been keeping myself ready for that day.
01:17:40So, uh, no.
01:17:42Christopher and I are in a platonic relationship,
01:17:46and...
01:17:46to make things easier on Christopher, we do not share a bit.
01:17:50They... they will comfort him.
01:17:53I'm not so sure anymore.
01:17:55Goodnight.
01:17:57Goodnight.
01:17:59So, if...
01:18:00in between 3 and 5 a.m.
01:18:03you weren't comforting your almost-but-not-quite-yet fiancé with two hours of your...
01:18:09manhood, then what were you doing?
01:18:12Let me jog your memory.
01:18:14You were feeling overlooked.
01:18:16Can I please have a volunteer to offer themselves up as an abductee?
01:18:21Oh, Christopher!
01:18:22No, sorry.
01:18:23We already have a volunteer.
01:18:25We don't want the cosmic overlords to have to choose between the two of you.
01:18:29As Zelda's most devoted follower must have hurt you a little.
01:18:33Hurt choosing Luke over you.
01:18:34Teaching him agonies.
01:18:40Favouring him over you.
01:18:43I want you to take over from me.
01:18:45You must lead up from here.
01:18:48Bitch.
01:18:49Just... think about it.
01:18:53Luke, you are the chosen one.
01:18:57Klaxcalan.
01:18:58Any martyrs?
01:18:59Plenty of gorn.
01:19:02Oranges.
01:19:05So, even with Zelda lying awake, the fact that you didn't share a room...
01:19:10meant that you were able to slip out of the house.
01:19:16Into the Greenkeeper's shed where you knew a flamethrower was kept.
01:19:21And any number of potentially lethal weapons.
01:19:23Well, it ain't a carnation, but the flower was red.
01:19:28I followed him down like the message had said.
01:19:31And lived it all to Junior who was soft in the head.
01:19:35Singing only the dead die young.
01:19:39Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
01:19:42Do I just have to let it go?
01:19:46Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
01:19:49Do I just have to let it go?
01:19:56What better way to validate Zelda's beliefs?
01:20:02And remove your competition?
01:20:10But it didn't kill him, did it, Christopher?
01:20:14That blow?
01:20:16Didn't kill him, did it?
01:20:21No.
01:20:23I, um...
01:20:24I, um...
01:20:24I had to make it look like they'd been a visit.
01:20:27My cousin McMaster.
01:20:28You can't have to put her on both sides of her pretty.
01:20:32Cause choose yourself a head for your sizable head.
01:20:35And choose another lover for that side of the beard.
01:20:39We'll stay out and never go home.
01:20:42But...
01:20:43Pisky gloves.
01:20:46Do what you said to tell him no.
01:20:50Ooh, ooh, ooh.
01:20:53Pisky gloves.
01:20:54Pisky gloves.
01:20:58Pisky gloves.
01:21:08Ah.
01:21:10Ah.
01:21:32What does this mean?
01:21:35It means you killed Luke Lamarrow to embrace your girlfriend.
01:21:42I'm no longer a fully integrated member of society.
01:21:47Am I?
01:22:09I'm no longer a fully integrated member of society.
01:22:18I don't know what you'll find out there.
01:22:19For a record?
01:22:20I hate golf.
01:22:21But the beach volleyball, Mike.
01:22:23I don't think you would be a natural.
01:22:33I don't know what it is with this dog.
01:22:35He keeps circling back to these burgers.
01:22:36I have a triple truffle supreme.
01:22:39I'm rather hoping you still offer the holy sinner double cheese.
01:22:42Well, it's better and beetroot fondue.
01:22:44Coming right up.
01:22:46Marvelous.
01:22:47Yummy.
01:22:47Oh, God.
01:22:48I so love pigs.
01:22:50And cats, of course, as you can see.
01:22:52But pigs, they're the cutest thing.
01:22:55Interesting fact.
01:22:56If you died and fell into his pen, he'd eat all of you over time.
01:23:00Leaving only your teeth and your hair.
01:23:03And pigs don't eat hair.
01:23:04Lovely as your service.
01:23:07Oh.
01:23:08Okay.
01:23:08That is...
01:23:09Interesting.
01:23:12As promised.
01:23:13Oh, you took your time.
01:23:15Well, since Jacob Lewis is no longer with us, no charges will be laid.
01:23:19I should hope not.
01:23:20Juffle's still on the menu there, I see.
01:23:22Oh, seems like a nice girl.
01:23:24Deserves a break.
01:23:25Doesn't strike me as a lurker.
01:23:27Hmm.
01:23:27Speaking of which, where's your off-sider?
01:23:30Victor Sims.
01:23:31Yeah, she should be here.
01:23:33Right about now.
01:23:34Oh.
01:23:35Oh.
01:23:36Woo!
01:23:37Woo!
01:23:38Woo!
01:23:43Standing on the corner way down here.
01:23:46Watching days go by.
01:23:49Gotta pick up the threads somewhere.
01:23:52Follow to the end of the line.
01:23:54Follow to the end of the line.
01:23:57We're coming to Peacerville.
01:23:58There's a thousand faces on this road.
01:24:02No, you're too sick.
01:24:03No, you're too sick.
01:24:04Woo!
01:24:05My wind will burst all right...
01:24:08He is walking by us!
01:24:12Dutch!
01:24:21What!?
01:24:22Ai!
01:24:25Lawå­¦s!
