00:00:28Hey, dude!
00:00:30Come on!
00:00:30You can't lie on the field, where are you?
00:00:31You're blocking the...
00:00:33No way.
00:00:43What the hell?
00:00:56Plant force trauma.
00:01:01Hey, Todd.
00:01:02You all right?
00:01:03Do you want to sit down for a minute?
00:01:04The circle.
00:01:05The crop circle.
00:01:06What did he say?
00:01:07Aliens made it.
00:01:08Crop circle.
00:01:09Jacob's lying in the centre of an alien crop circle.
00:01:11But in grass, not crop.
00:01:13You know this person?
00:01:15Nah.
00:01:15Well, only that his name's Jacob.
00:01:16He runs Jacob's Burgers in town.
00:01:19In the circle, what makes you think it's alien made?
00:01:22Because there's an aliens of people to convention 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, maybe.
00:01:35No.
00:01:35Because they died from overconsumption of vodka.
00:01:38They pickled their livers.
00:01:41Of course.
00:01:43Is this your boy, Todd?
00:01:45Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it is.
00:01:46And where were you when you hit this?
00:01:48Oh, God.
00:01:49You think my boy killed Jacob?
00:01:51It's possible.
00:01:51Nah.
00:01:52They came before me.
00:01:53Who's they?
00:01:54Aliens.
00:01:55He's dead centre.
00:01:56Dead in 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 that stuff anymore.
00:02:01Except that one time that I completely forgot about until you 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 in a crop circle.
00:02:10Crop circle.
00:02:10Oh, okay, we got it.
00:02:16Can I go?
00:02:17What's so important?
00:02:18I'm training for speed golf.
00:02:19Every four hours I've done nine holes.
00:02:21I've got the last ones going.
00:02:22Speed golf?
00:02:23Yeah.
00:02:24Three clubs, one ball.
00:02:25Fast 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've got to go.
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.
00:02:51Gina, safe to say that the victim died from his head injury?
00:02:55Nothing is safe, Mike.
00:02:57Not when he's lying in a circle of death.
00:02:59Best we get a grass sample.
00:03:00I am a pathologist, not a green keeper.
00:03:04Unless the possible link surrounding his cause of death and any chemical compound found on vegetation.
00:03:10Certainly, Mike.
00:03:12Good thinking.
00:03:15Well, I need a coffee.
00:03:25Good thinking.
00:03:47His name is Alfie 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.
00:04:00People 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?
00:04:09DC Chalmers, Brokenwood CIB.
00:04:11I'd like to ask you a few questions regarding this morning's incident.
00:04:15Grim.
00:04:16Janet Grim.
00:04:18You'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?
00:04:32Because you didn't have any golf clubs with him.
00:04:34No.
00:04:36Never played golf.
00:04:37He 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.
00:04:50The 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.
00:05:03Oh, he says he's a chef.
00:05:06Comay burgers, really?
00:05:08All chefs are a bit weird.
00:05:10You have a greenkeeper?
00:05:12Natasha.
00:05:13Best in the biz.
00:05:14Okay.
00:05:15Thanks for your help.
00:05:16And the 13th Fairway will have to stay closed for a while.
00:05:28Didn't expect you two to be UFO aficionados.
00:05:32It's always good to keep an open mind.
00:05:34Bad one about Jacob Lewis.
00:05:35Wow.
00:05:36Word spreads fast around here.
00:05:39Thanks, Frodes.
00:05:40Put it on the tab.
00:05:41Inspector?
00:05:42Uh, Detective Senior Sergeant, actually.
00:05:45Um, Mike Sheppard.
00:05:47Uh, Detective Christian Sims, broker with CIB.
00:05:49Zelda Belfand, president of Aliens, our people too.
00:05:52Opt.
00:05:53Opt?
00:05:54Yes.
00:05:54And 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, it sounds very much like a failed alien induction.
00:06:03The 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 whether or not the circle is in fact a crop
00:06:12circle.
00:06:13Oh, but most likely for sure.
00:06:16Oh, sorry, how rude of me.
00:06:17This is Christopher, a fellow member of Opt.
00:06:20Christopher Kramer?
00:06:21Yeah.
00:06:22We've met.
00:06:23Oh, I don't think so.
00:06:24It was a few years ago with regards to the Dishler clinic.
00:06:29Nope.
00:06:29I 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, Zelda's our guiding light on anything extraterrestrial.
00:06:46Oh, Christopher, please.
00:06:47Tell them.
00:06:48Go on.
00:06:48It 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.
00:06:59The cosmic beings and I communed, shall we say, connected on a very deep level.
00:07:07Several times.
00:07:09It was phenomenal.
00:07:12My life changed forever.
00:07:14And from that, I have a theory which explains how your man, Jacob, is it, might have died.
00:07:21Follow me.
00:07:27Zelda's my fiancée.
00:07:29Wow.
00:07:29Go you.
00:07:30No, no, no.
00:07:31Not go you.
00:07:32This is serious.
00:07:33It's a committed relationship.
00:07:34Okay?
00:07:35So, look, that guy you used to know, the old Christopher, he's history.
00:07:39Okay?
00:07:39And new Christopher, he's got it together.
00:07:41New Christopher is trying hard and succeeding to be a fully integrated member of society.
00:07:46New Christopher is the only Christopher that Zelda knows.
00:07:49Christopher!
00:07:53New Christopher, fully integrated.
00:07:55Got it.
00:07:59The convention is in the ballroom.
00:08:02New ARCT members.
00:08:03Why am I not surprised?
00:08:05Trudy.
00:08:10Oh, looking great, Kirk.
00:08:12Keep it up.
00:08:14Thanks.
00:08:16Brokenwood is in close proximity to Earth's magnetic south pole.
00:08:20Magnetic radiation passing overhead from the pole can disrupt an alien craft's navigation system.
00:08:27That's right.
00:08:27Alien planets may not have magnetic poles, so aliens wouldn't think to have polar navigational offsets.
00:08:32If the vessel descended too quickly with its door prematurely open, then it's likely that the leading edge of the
00:08:39door struck the man's head like so.
00:08:44It's got aborted alien abduction written all over it.
00:08:49Did either of you know Jacob Lewis?
00:08:53Know him?
00:08:53I don't think so.
00:08:55I'm vegan.
00:08:58It's interesting that you're holding a convention in Brokerwood and then a triple A event occurs.
00:09:04It's more than interesting.
00:09:05It's reinforcing.
00:09:07I'm constantly communing with cosmic beings and I put a lot of energy out.
00:09:13I'm hopeful that tomorrow night that 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.
00:09:37Nonbelievers?
00:09:39Infidels.
00:09:40They will come around.
00:09:43Excuse me, detectives.
00:09:44Ah, Dr. Plummer, Reverend 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.
00:10:06All yummy.
00:10:06The truffle thing's not to my taste.
00:10:10Lucas has another vice.
00:10:12And one holy sinner with double cheese, feta and beetroot fondue.
00:10:18Ah, dare I say it, a taste of heaven.
00:10:21Such 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.
00:10:33Believing is seen.
00:10:34I'm simply here to observe the power of human imagination.
00:10:38And you, Reverend?
00:10:39I can never resist a free cab.
00:10:42And of course, I'm also here to offer the church's perspective if needed.
00:10:45Ah, which is vague.
00:10:46It's a pest.
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?
00:10:55There 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 and a solar eclipse, Mike.
00:11:09I'm on my way.
00:11:14Bye.
00:11:23Excuse me?
00:11:25Lena, hi.
00:11:27I heard about Jacob.
00:11:28It's so awful.
00:11:30Oh, did you know him?
00:11:31Well, he used to hang out here, heading on me for a date.
00:11:34The golf course.
00:11:36Yeah.
00:11:37Come on, you'll love it.
00:11:37It'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?
00:11:45Well, you know, first date 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.
00:12:09I've got no idea.
00:12:10I'm more of a cat person.
00:12:11Do you like cats?
00:12:13Meow.
00:12:15I've got a catsuit at home.
00:12:23Looking for something?
00:12:25Just out for a casual walk?
00:12:27There's no crime in there, is there?
00:12:28Dogs are banned from the course.
00:12:30You need to leave.
00:12:31What dogs are banned, but pigs aren't.
00:12:32Talk 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 catsuit on a first date.
00:12:44The catsuit was me and Chad's thing.
00:12:47Still feels a bit soon, actually.
00:12:50Lena, 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 become, like, antique.
00:13:11Well, 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.
00:13:37A few questions about this morning's incident?
00:13:40Right.
00:13:40Right.
00:13:41Yeah.
00:13:42Shocking.
00:13:44What time did you start work this morning?
00:13:46Around 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 mowers 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 well do you know him?
00:14:06I 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.
00:14:15I 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!
00:14:26Sucker!
00:14:28I never did get that hole-in-one.
00:14:32And that's as close as you got to him?
00:14:34Too risky for him to get any closer.
00:14:36I'm way more accurate at chipping than driving.
00:14:39The 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.
00:14:59Could also 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.
00:15:11But 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.
00:15:21And the grass samples.
00:15:25The grass has been burnt, 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, so obviously we kill as
00:15:39a total no-go.
00:15:40However, why do you burn a circle of grass?
00:15:45I like polka dots.
00:15:46I'm going to burn them all over.
00:15:50I'm making a bunker.
00:15:52Step 1, burn off the grass.
00:15:53Step 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?
00:16:01Circles are the ultimate symmetrical shape.
00:16:05They're balanced.
00:16:06They evoke harmony.
00:16:08Symmetry actually helps calm the players.
00:16:10My next bunker's going to be an equilateral triangle.
00:16:13Thomas!
00:16:17Excuse me.
00:16:24Hey!
00:16:27Can I help you?
00:16:29I'm the detective.
00:16:30Hey!
00:16:31Hey!
00:16:33Hey!
00:16:34Hey!
00:17:01Starting a new hobby.
00:17:02I'm saving that treat for retirement.
00:17:04When 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.
00:17:14I'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.
00:17:44Aside from that, neither she nor the club manager, Janet Grimm, saw anyone on the course prior to Todd finding
00:17:50the 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?
00:18:12I'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?
00:18:36You 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 green keeper 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?
00:18:59Do you know if anyone wanted to harm Jacob?
00:19:03No, he was a cool guy.
00:19:06Did he owe anyone any money?
00:19:08Mm, 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, it's a bit antsy about the rising price of raw ingredients, but who isn't?
00:19:24Okay, well, um, thank you for your help.
00:19:28Can you cook?
00:19:30Can I cook?
00:19:32I'm just freaking out.
00:19:34Well, it turns out Jacob's Cafe have the contract for catering the art event and Faya is a little bit
00:19:41overwhelmed by the prospect.
00:19:42Good.
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?
00:19:52We have.
00:19:53Oh, good.
00:19:54Because when I saw her this morning it was really weird.
00:19:57What the hell, lady?
00:19:58Get the hell out of here, Gordon!
00:20:00So I figured maybe Janet and the alien forces might be working together.
00:20:04Because...
00:20:04She was threatening him.
00:20:05Next minute, he was struck by a spaceship.
00:20:07What was the yelling about?
00:20:08It's obvious, isn't it?
00:20:09It was about herding Jacob into the open space, while giving the spaceship a glass shot at him.
00:20:17Oh, too soon.
00:20:18Hey, I've got a train.
00:20:22Someone's telling porkies.
00:20:23Indeed.
00:20:25Let's bring in Janet Grimm.
00:20:30Pay the green fees.
00:20:31End of story.
00:20:32Capitalist coercion.
00:20:33This 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.
00:20:46It's okay.
00:20:47No, the actual pigs are here.
00:20:51Ms. Grimm.
00:20:52We need to talk.
00:20:53Can 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've had enough.
00:21:25Why would he be digging?
00:21:26No idea.
00:21:27Just what he does.
00:21:28He digs.
00:21:29He lurks.
00:21:31We'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.
00:21:37I'm sure she can hold the fort.
00:21:39Don't fret, honey.
00:21:41Don't be long.
00:21:43Christopher, 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.
00:21:55Why?
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.
00:22:09Right 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.
00:22:19Oh, it's like the yolk of a giant alien egg.
00:22:22It's just oozed down into the grass.
00:22:24I mean, oh.
00:22:27Oh, it smells so good.
00:22:30Christopher, check the radiation.
00:22:32Oh.
00:22:37Affirmative.
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.
00:22:46And 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 have...
00:23:00You're a fully integrated member of society.
00:23:03Yeah.
00:23:04So act like it.
00:23:07Chris, don't talk to pigs.
00:23:09They're not like us.
00:23:11They're animals.
00:23:15Hello?
00:23:36Once again, what were you and Jacob arguing about?
00:23:39His attitude.
00:23:41Digging up and wrecking your golf course.
00:23:44Golf star, 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 and therefore worth more.
00:23:54A golf ball's a golf ball as far as I'm concerned.
00:23:57Hey.
00:23:57Hey, you're ripping me off big time.
00:24:00Supply and demand, that's all it is.
00:24:02Take it or leave it.
00:24:04Supply and demand of what?
00:24:06Golf balls.
00:24:08I bought them off Jacob for a dollar.
00:24:10I 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.
00:24:16I 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 and...
00:24:23End of story.
00:24:28Hi there.
00:24:30How do you feel?
00:24:32Like I've been hit in the air with a shovel.
00:24:34Well, that's a good sign.
00:24:35Because that is what happened.
00:24:38So, at least your memory isn't a bit 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.
00:24:52I did have a prowler here last week.
00:24:54I did have a prowler here last week.
00:24:57Oi!
00:24:58What 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 chasing 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,
00:25:16some things belong in this world
00:25:18and some things don't.
00:25:27Hi.
00:25:28Hey.
00:25:31What's with you?
00:25:33Bit of a bump to the head.
00:25:35By the leading edge of a spaceship's prematurely open door?
00:25:39Ah, I went to talk to Tash.
00:25:42I 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.
00:25:53Get checked for a concussion.
00:25:55Do you want to charge her?
00:25:57Well, technically I was trespassing.
00:25:59No 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.
00:26:05Daniel, come on now.
00:26:07Let it go.
00:26:08Did you 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.
00:26:19Well, it's just that you
00:26:21were in a circle in the grass
00:26:23and the guy you didn't like
00:26:24ends up dead in it.
00:26:26Bit 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,
00:26:32I 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
00:26:41and there was some damage around the place.
00:26:43Although that'd be Alfie.
00:26:45Because hey,
00:26:46if your course manager owns a pig,
00:26:47what do you expect?
00:26:48It is odd though.
00:26:49Isn't it?
00:26:52Why bring a pig
00:26:53to a golf course?
00:26:59And whatever Janet and Jacob
00:27:00were 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.
00:27:19Or they were looking for something.
00:27:20Yeah, 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.
00:27:49How's your ex-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 the 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,
00:28:14you'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.
00:28:21Just shop Porky Pigeon Pizzas
00:28:23if you don't care about the quality.
00:28:24Hey,
00:28:25keep 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,
00:28:40pay 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,
00:28:44they can scoff and run.
00:28:45Did they pay up?
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,
00:28:52watch 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
00:29:19to be better
00:29:19interplanetary beings
00:29:21resonates with
00:29:22the Christian idea
00:29:23of 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 Overlords.
00:29:34Yes.
00:29:34I wonder
00:29:35if God
00:29:37might make
00:29:37a much better job
00:29:38of that transformation.
00:29:40I actually believe
00:29:41that God
00:29:42is an alien,
00:29:44a cosmic overlord.
00:29:46So,
00:29:46you might be on
00:29:47to something there,
00:29:48Reverend Christopher.
00:29:50How long
00:29:50did you commune
00:29:51with the cosmic overlords?
00:29:53It's hard to say.
00:29:56you lose
00:29:57all sense of time.
00:29:59It's like
00:29:59you're traveling
00:30:00into the past
00:30:00and the future
00:30:01simultaneously.
00:30:03So,
00:30:04in Earth time,
00:30:04I'd estimate
00:30:05around 10 days.
00:30:07Were the aliens
00:30:08naked?
00:30:09Uh, yes.
00:30:11Were you
00:30:12naked?
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.
00:30:22Um,
00:30:23how did you communicate
00:30:24with the aliens
00:30:26if there was
00:30:27a lack of common language?
00:30:29By touch.
00:30:32And if you must know,
00:30:34I loved it.
00:30:36And so did they.
00:30:38All right, everyone,
00:30:39that concludes
00:30:40my presentation.
00:30:42Now,
00:30:43let's move on
00:30:43to 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
00:30:50an alien spaceship.
00:30:52Can I please
00:30:53have a volunteer
00:30:54from the audience
00:30:55to offer themselves up
00:30:57as an abductee?
00:30:59Oh, Christopher.
00:31:00No, 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
00:31:05between the two of you.
00:31:06All right, everyone.
00:31:07Let's please give
00:31:08a round of applause
00:31:10to our hero, Luke.
00:31:11Yes!
00:31:14Luke, your 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 that aliens exist,
00:31:33but they are here for good,
00:31:34not evil.
00:31:37I am willing
00:31:38to stake my life on it.
00:31:42Aliens are people too.
00:31:43Yes!
00:31:44Aliens are people too.
00:31:45Aliens are people too!
00:31:46Aliens are people too!
00:31:47Aliens are people too!
00:31:48Aliens are people too!
00:31:49Aliens are people too!
00:31:52Yes!
00:31:52All right, everyone!
00:31:54Thank 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.
00:32:07We're okay, Lena.
00:32:09Why were you two in there?
00:32:11Uh, we came to ask
00:32:12a couple of questions.
00:32:13While infiltrating our meeting.
00:32:15You two were on the golf course yesterday.
00:32:17Yes.
00:32:17You saw us.
00:32:18They're slow learners.
00:32:19Were you there earlier in the day?
00:32:21Say, around 7 a.m.?
00:32:22Oh, a diversion 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?
00:32:30In my motel?
00:32:31Alone?
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.
00:32:40Is there a problem?
00:32:42The police, or should I say
00:32:43government plants,
00:32:45have been spying on us.
00:32:46We have nothing to hide.
00:32:47Good.
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 a
00:32:53aborted alien abduction.
00:32:55A triple A event?
00:32:56Yeah, we are the experts in this field.
00:32:58Trust us.
00:32:59I can handle this.
00:33:00I was at the motel
00:33:01prepping for my keynote speech tomorrow
00:33:03titled
00:33:04Your neighbour is an alien.
00:33:06In fact, you're more than welcome
00:33:07to attend to hear my proof.
00:33:08And what proof would that be?
00:33:10Leaked top-secret documents
00:33:11detailing how aliens
00:33:13are living among us
00:33:14here and now.
00:33:15We are so blinkered by normality
00:33:16that 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,
00:33:22but alien interference
00:33:24is unlikely.
00:33:26Then how do you explain
00:33:27the crop circle?
00:33:27Burn off with a flamethrower
00:33:29by a greenkeeper.
00:33:30Routine.
00:33:31Conspiracy of doubt.
00:33:32Ms. Belfan,
00:33:33you 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.
00:33:39Pay up
00:33:40and I'll plead 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, the food
00:33:49should be here soon.
00:33:51Sustenance, Rao.
00:33:52Big night ahead.
00:33:59Kirk Rollins is a creep.
00:34:00Passionate and misdelusion,
00:34:01at least.
00:34:05Rocky mistake.
00:34:07Should have parked
00:34:07the car closer
00:34:08to the front door.
00:34:10Rao, this is
00:34:10Detective Shepard.
00:34:11Hey.
00:34:12Hello.
00:34:13I see you've had
00:34:14some success.
00:34:14It'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.
00:34:23I substituted mustard
00:34:24for it.
00:34:25I'm hoping they won't
00:34:26notice.
00:34:27Your supplier
00:34:28let you down?
00:34:28No idea.
00:34:29Jacob sourced them.
00:34:30I've got to get in there.
00:34:32See ya.
00:34:33Good luck.
00:34:35What do people
00:34:35with steel rods
00:34:36and pegs
00:34:37rooting around trees
00:34:38have in common?
00:34:43What?
00:34:45Healthy.
00:34:51Janet.
00:34:52How can I help?
00:34:55Jacob Lewis
00:34:55didn't supply you
00:34:56with 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.
00:35:05Jacob was digging
00:35:06for truffles
00:35:07but unlike you
00:35:08he didn't find any.
00:35:10Truffles?
00:35:11They need black walnut
00:35:12trees, don't they?
00:35:12Or 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.
00:35:17We can have a search team
00:35:19here within the hour
00:35:19with 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.
00:35:35Best 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 of it?
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 go
00:36:09to protect that supply?
00:36:14It was an accident.
00:36:16The discovery.
00:36:17That is.
00:36:19Alfie, what have you found?
00:36:21Tuba milanospora.
00:36:25Perigold black truffles.
00:36:29Otherwise known as black gold.
00:36:31I'd seen Jacob
00:36:33offered truffled mushrooms
00:36:34on his menu
00:36:34so I thought
00:36:35he might be interested.
00:36:36Offered 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.
00:36:46Then I raised my prices.
00:36:48I'm only fair to share
00:36:49in his success.
00:36:50Boy!
00:36:51What do you think
00:36:52you're doing?
00:36:52I know extortion
00:36:53when I see it.
00:36:54You're forcing me
00:36:54to take matters
00:36:55into my own hands.
00:36:56Well, you won't find
00:36:56anything 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
00:37:02right now.
00:37:04But 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?
00:37:15Get the hell out of here,
00:37:16go on.
00:37:18I detest it
00:37:19when people say whatever.
00:37:21What ifs?
00:37:22Like 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.
00:37:51You know,
00:37:52not for all the troubles
00:37:53in the world.
00:37:54Janet 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
00:37:59blow to 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
00:38:08the scent 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.
00:38:23I'd appreciate it
00:38:24if we keep it
00:38:25just between ourselves.
00:38:50do you see Chalmers?
00:38:52Yeah, it's Tash.
00:38:56I think I found something.
00:39:03Your alien friends
00:39:04must be very small
00:39:05to fly in that.
00:39:07You said they were big?
00:39:10Tash found this
00:39:1120 metres downhill
00:39:12from the crop circle.
00:39:14Fingerprints made a match
00:39:15on a Bud Johnson.
00:39:17Judging by this,
00:39:18I'm sure he's the man
00:39:20I saw in the fairway.
00:39:21Why wouldn't you own up
00:39:22to looking for a discus?
00:39:24When you use your discus
00:39:25to 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,
00:39:32we'll do the job.
00:39:33And 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
00:39:57earning a commendable
00:39:59fourth place.
00:40:13Hi, Bud Johnson?
00:40:15Yeah.
00:40:16Detective Christian Sims,
00:40:18Brokenwood CIB,
00:40:19and I believe you've already
00:40:20met my colleague,
00:40:21D.C. Chalmers.
00:40:21We think we have
00:40:23some lost property
00:40:24belonging to you.
00:40:25It's a track and field discus
00:40:26that's found on the golf course.
00:40:28It could be more.
00:40:29That's 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.
00:40:34How?
00:40:35A man was found dead
00:40:36on the golf course this morning.
00:40:38So I lose a discus
00:40:39and next minute
00:40:40I'm a murder suspect?
00:40:41Oh, he 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 from me
00:40:48in a reckless manner.
00:40:48Why?
00:40:49Yeah, look,
00:40:50I've learned the hard way
00:40:50that if 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
00:40:54done something wrong.
00:40:56I suggest you come back
00:40:58to the station with us
00:40:58and make a statement
00:40:59about how your discus
00:41:00ended 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?
00:41:16Yes.
00:41:17What 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
00:41:28of the morning
00:41:29when I got a call
00:41:29about an accident.
00:41:30To get the job
00:41:31I've got to be the first
00:41:32toy 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.
00:41:38A 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
00:41:42you were there.
00:41:47We know you have
00:41:47a conviction
00:41:48for assault.
00:41:50We know that
00:41:51the man you assaulted
00:41:52was in hospital
00:41:53for over a week.
00:41:54Do you know
00:41:55why I assaulted him?
00:41:56Enlighten 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
00:42:01it 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 part.
00:42:08What is the ninth step?
00:42:09To develop empathy
00:42:10for the other's perspective.
00:42:12I still don't have empathy
00:42:13for my neighbour's ex.
00:42:15But I'm trying
00:42:15to change my ways.
00:42:16That's why I'm training
00:42:17so 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.
00:42:35Gina, you want to see me?
00:42:37Always, Mike.
00:42:38Good evening.
00:42:39Evening.
00:42:40The curvature
00:42:41of this type of discus
00:42:42matches the victim's
00:42:43head injury.
00:42:47The dick athlete
00:42:49Bart Johnson.
00:42:50I've seen his photo
00:42:51in the paper.
00:42:52Handsome.
00:42:53He reminds me
00:42:54of a volleyball player
00:42:55I knew in Vladivostok.
00:42:56Well,
00:42:57Bart Johnson
00:42:58was convicted
00:42:58for serious assault
00:42:59and depending on
00:43:00what you tell me
00:43:01perhaps
00:43:02more convictions
00:43:03will follow.
00:43:04I will do
00:43:05what I can for you, Mike.
00:43:07If you allow me
00:43:08to show you my melons.
00:43:09Uh,
00:43:11sure.
00:43:14Imagine
00:43:14this melon
00:43:15is the victim's head.
00:43:26A very accurate throw
00:43:27that 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
00:43:3693.6 kilometers
00:43:38per hour.
00:43:39So it's like
00:43:39being hit in the head
00:43:40by a very small car.
00:43:41A two-cagey car
00:43:43with no wheels
00:43:43that flies,
00:43:44yes.
00:43:45The impact force
00:43:46at high velocity
00:43:47leads to certain
00:43:48cranial fracture.
00:43:51If Bart 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?
00:44:02Bart Johnson
00:44:03stated he didn't
00:44:04know Jacob Lewis
00:44:05so where's the motive?
00:44:07So,
00:44:08a freak accident?
00:44:09Well,
00:44:09if you're training
00:44:10you're going to watch
00:44:10the full flight of your throat
00:44:12to see how far it flies.
00:44:13You would have had to
00:44:14have seen it strike Jacob.
00:44:16Intentional
00:44:17or accidental
00:44:17either way
00:44:18it's a hit and run.
00:44:23Let's bring him in tomorrow.
00:44:46I fail to see
00:44:48a meaningful distinction
00:44:49between belief
00:44:49in extraterrestrial life
00:44:51and belief in God.
00:44:52There is no empirical evidence
00:44:53that suggests
00:44:54that either exist.
00:44:55I'm not concerned
00:44:56with the belief
00:44:56it's the worshipping
00:44:57of aliens
00:44:58that's the issue.
00:44:59Worship is belief
00:45:00times a few degrees.
00:45:02Roger,
00:45:02you're hogging the blanket.
00:45:03Lucas, please,
00:45:04I'm not.
00:45:13When 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.
00:45:25Lord, he's strong
00:45:26mentally,
00:45:28he'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.
00:45:37I make you all
00:45:38follow me up
00:45:40and down the country,
00:45:41promising alien encounters
00:45:43that never evacuate.
00:45:44But they will.
00:45:47Wonder if Luke
00:45:48would be a better leader.
00:45:49If I stood down,
00:45:50we could make him president.
00:45:52No way.
00:45:54We follow you
00:45:55because we believe in you.
00:45:57There could be
00:45:58a million reasons
00:45:59why aliens haven't visited us
00:46:00and 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.
00:46:07Really?
00:46:08Yes.
00:46:09Yesterday,
00:46:10Jacob Lewis came this close
00:46:11to 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 beam up
00:46:23into their ship.
00:46:24And I wouldn't say no.
00:46:26Thank you, Christopher.
00:46:45Take this.
00:46:46Let's see.
00:46:47Perfect.
00:46:49Here we go.
00:47:21Red, 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've tapped into some kind of dark energy vortex.
00:48:07Well, I think that was just a weird coincidence.
00:48:12It's training time again.
00:48:13Really?
00:48:16No way, I'm done with speed golf.
00:48:19Water count's too high.
00:48:23Time of death?
00:48:24Judging by his body temperature may be between 3 and 5 am.
00:48:29How similar are his injuries to the first victim?
00:48:32He has a head injury on his right temple and symmetrical marking on his forehead.
00:48:38But look Mike, he 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?
00:48:55No.
00:48:56Did 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.
00:49:08Could 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.
00:49:19Modesty's 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.
00:49:32So if I was to slowly approach that shape and pull the tarp off, would you try and hit me
00:49:38with a shovel?
00:49:39I truly am sorry about that.
00:49:43No, hold on.
00:49:45I'll do it.
00:49:56You can't tell anyone.
00:49:57It's a surprise for me kids.
00:49:59It's going to be afloat 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.
00:50:07Last year I made a Thomas the Tank Engine.
00:50:10You should have seen this thing.
00:50:12It was so good.
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.
00:50:23And you know it's perfect, right?
00:50:26Really?
00:50:27Yeah.
00:50:28It's absolutely perfect.
00:50:35Tash claims she didn't burn the circle.
00:50:37But 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?
00:50:48Mike, you should know by now that I always know what you want.
00:50:50What 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?
00:50:58It'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 place about 20 minutes ago.
00:51:05Have you been on the fairway this morning?
00:51:06No.
00:51:07We need to close the entire golf course until further notice.
00:51:12When can I get my walking paw back?
00:51:15When you stop assaulting people with it.
00:51:18Get on with it then.
00:51:20A little more.
00:51:22A little more.
00:51:23Oh, too much.
00:51:26Miss Belfin, could we have a word please?
00:51:29This is about Luke, isn't it?
00:51:30He'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.
00:51:40Maybe he's a robocop that missed getting the speech chip installed.
00:51:43Kirk, please be respectful.
00:51:44Miss, I think his silence is a really good sign.
00:51:46The cops are in full-on cover-up mode.
00:51:48Luke has been abducted.
00:51:50He's probably communing with the Cosmic Motherboards right now.
00:51:54Detective, please, there is no need to cover this up.
00:51:57It's positive news.
00:52:00Luke Lamara's body was found on the course this morning.
00:52:04Oh, damn.
00:52:05Damn, damn.
00:52:06Oh my 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.
00:52:20But you can't be sure.
00:52:21How 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.
00:52:31Zelda, could I look at your model spaceship again, please?
00:52:34Yeah, Christopher, please.
00:52:38Do you think he's suffered?
00:52:39I should never left him alone.
00:52:44Oh!
00:52:45Identical.
00:52:45That says it all.
00:52:46They came for me after all.
00:52:48They're here.
00:52:49Oh!
00:52:50Oh!
00:52:52Oh!
00:52:53Detective Shepard, please follow me.
00:52:56But why is he dead?
00:52:57Well, 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?
00:53:06Asleep in my motel, missing all the action.
00:53:09Alone with your dreams, I guess.
00:53:10You 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.
00:53:20Christopher, you are something out of this world.
00:53:25Yes, I was occupied.
00:53:27Stop 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.
00:53:42CIA.
00:53:43FBI.
00:53:44Governments.
00:53:44Luke's blood is on their hands.
00:53:47Your hands.
00:53:47Every last one of them.
00:53:50Your overhead project is 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 when
00:54:00I was abducted.
00:54:02And you were found in that circle?
00:54:04Yes.
00:54:05Oh, my God, it's a message.
00:54:07Marking Luke with your design is saying, I want you.
00:54:10Why would they kill him?
00:54:12Well, miscalculation, unintentional, I'm sure.
00:54:14Military assassination, more likely.
00:54:16Everyone's opinion is welcome.
00:54:18Down at the station.
00:54:29So, 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.
00:54:44It's playing them or feeling.
00:54:45And staying awake.
00:54:47Oh, come on, break too soon.
00:54:48Todd!
00:54:50He had one job.
00:54:52Look, playing score intergalactically could be my big break.
00:54:54Like, 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.
00:55:02Nah, 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.
00:55:17Like me.
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.
00:55:30To be used as an interspecies cultural exchange before 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?
00:55:42Of 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.
00:55:50He'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.
00:56:10She believed Luke was the one.
00:56:13How did that make you feel?
00:56:15Fine.
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.
00:56:24He wasn't ready.
00:56:26Christopher can be a little anxious at times.
00:56:30And the aliens seek constancy.
00:56:32Or 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, maybe.
00:56:57Is that multiple choice?
00:57:03Do you have something you want to share?
00:57:06Do I want to?
00:57:08No.
00:57:10Should I?
00:57:10I don't know.
00:57:12No?
00:57:13I mean, I could.
00:57:15Look, this has to stay between us.
00:57:18Well, that depends on whether or not what you've got to say is any value.
00:57:21If it's just more conspiracy theory, then sure, it won't go any further.
00:57:24No, it's not.
00:57:26Really, 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.
00:57:49Intense.
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.
00:58:00He wanted to burn the station down and Luke was from a store.
00:58:03And why would Kirk want to do that?
00:58:05Because he knows a lot.
00:58:07Every station has one.
00:58:09It's criminal.
00:58:10Like a scrambling device.
00:58:11An electronic beacon.
00:58:12Sprays the night sky to interfere with the extraterrestrial spacecraft.
00:58:17Police stations don't have those.
00:58:18I'm starting to wonder about you.
00:58:20Are you 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.
00:58:4411.27pm.
00:58:46Three nights ago.
00:58:49So Chris Kramer was telling the truth.
00:58:51First time for everything.
00:58:56A witness claims that several nights ago you and Luke Lamarro had an altercation outside this police station.
00:59:03He was preventing you from committing arson.
00:59:10We have it on CCTV.
00:59:17So what?
00:59:18I didn't do it?
00:59:20I thought you were clearly very angry with Luke.
00:59:22Yeah.
00:59:23He stopped me from setting things right.
00:59:25I 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.
00:59:39It'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. You 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.
01:00:08We still don't have enough.
01:00:12Kirk and Luke would butt heads occasionally, differing opinions, but Kirk would never go that far not to hurt Luke.
01:00:20While he was prepared to burn down the police station.
01:00:24Posturing, I'm sure.
01:00:25Back to last night, you called off the ceremony. Why?
01:00:29We were feeling the cold.
01:00:30Guessing it was around 2am.
01:00:39Here I have failed you again.
01:00:41It's not your fault.
01:00:42Maybe 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. I'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, Luke, your dedication is so moving.
01:01:31I want you to take over for me.
01:01:34You must lead up from here.
01:01:36But you-
01:01:37Just think about it.
01:01:46I'll see a big conflitazi to the masters from here.
01:01:51Thank you, Luke.
01:01:52You are a hero.
01:02:00Come on, people. Let's go.
01:02:06Look at this.
01:02:07Look at this.
01:02:10Look at this.
01:02:12Look at this.
01:02:13Look at this.
01:02:13Look at this.
01:02:14Look at this.
01:02:18That was the last time I ever saw Luke.
01:02:22I'm so 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.
01:02:40Kristen Sims?
01:02:42Hi, it's Freya.
01:02:50I hope you didn't call me here just to help with these.
01:02:53I'm so over it.
01:02:55You know, washing dishes is a little outside my job description.
01:02:59Lucky you.
01:03:03So?
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?
01:03:11Um, no, I'm all good.
01:03:13So that thing the other day with your boss, it's no buggy, right?
01:03:17Jacob's dead.
01:03:18I know.
01:03:18And it had nothing to do with me.
01:03:20I didn't even know the guy.
01:03:21If 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.
01:03:34He'd always get tickets.
01:03:36Then a few days ago, he was getting towed and it got ugly.
01:03:39You can't tow me, man.
01:03:41This is my restaurant.
01:03:41I park here all the time.
01:03:43Hey, hey, you're a thug.
01:03:44You know that, mate?
01:03:46Hey, cross the line, mate.
01:03:47Don't ever start while you can't finish.
01:03:49Just breathe.
01:03:50Breathe.
01:03:52Don't ever grab someone from behind.
01:03:54That was a dumb move.
01:03:59There may be nothing, but no.
01:04:01Thanks, Frey.
01:04:01You've been a big help.
01:04:02Oh, and the dishes?
01:04:04What if I could?
01:04:13Hi, bud.
01:04:16We need to talk.
01:04:25You lied to me, bud.
01:04:29About not knowing Jacob Lewis.
01:04:31We have a witness who saw you tow his car from outside his burger restaurant.
01:04:37So do you admit to towing Jacob Lewis's 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.
01:04:58I'm training to be a decathlete.
01:05:00That's my dream.
01:05:01I wouldn't do anything to jeopardize that.
01:05:03That doesn't really answer my question.
01:05:04Did the witness also say it was self-defense?
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?
01:05:38I don't know.
01:05:39I'm not a golfer.
01:05:40I'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, it had happened before.
01:06:07I videoed myself.
01:06:09What?
01:06:09I filmed myself, so I can wash my form.
01:06:15It was a near perfect throw by the way.
01:06:17Felt right on the money.
01:06:21And that'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, it's ours.
01:06:30So tell him more.
01:06:30No, I'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.
01:06:48The cause of that was cardiac arrest.
01:06:50He 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 lightning bolt on both hands, he must have been playing volleyball.
01:07:10Volleyball.
01:07:10Like this or this.
01:07:13I love volleyball.
01:07:15Have you ever played, Mike?
01:07:16Not in a very long time.
01:07:19Could Luke's hands in the grass have been burnt by the same source?
01:07:22No.
01:07:23A naked flame burned the grass.
01:07:25Oh.
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-o-pen.
01:07:36Beach 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.
01:08:04That's it.
01:08:0668 meters.
01:08:20The tow truck call-out center verified that Bud Johnson received a call from them at 7.04 AM.
01:08:27And his video puts him exactly here.
01:08:31He's our man.
01:08:39We're satisfied there was no intent to injure Jacob Lewis.
01:08:43And I swear no one's that accurate.
01:08:4568 meters.
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 meters.
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.
01:09:15Are we calling it?
01:09:16It's another homicide.
01:09:18Luke LaMaro was electrocuted.
01:09:21Senior.
01:09:22Thanks.
01:09:25Is that what a Belfin's on her way in?
01:09:28Uh, do you perhaps need Christopher as your support person?
01:09:31No. 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.
01:10:02It started with a seed of negativity.
01:10:05Depressive 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.
01:10:37They involuntarily act upon them by travelling here.
01:10:41Creating a...
01:10:43interspecies, co-killing, unwittingly orchestrated...
01:10:47orchestrated...
01:10:48by 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...
01:11:01with regards to Jacob Lewis's death, there was...
01:11:04no alien involvement.
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.
01:11:41Christopher.
01:11:42What?
01:11:43You lay awake with Christopher.
01:11:45I didn't hear him.
01:11:47But...
01:11:48you were in bed together.
01:11:49Did he tell you that?
01:11:51Awkwardly, 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...
01:12:03he's not ready for some things.
01:12:06And...
01:12:07nor am I in that regard.
01:12:10Even though he's your...
01:12:12fiancé?
01:12:13Christopher would like to be my fiancé.
01:12:17But...
01:12:18perhaps one day when we're both ready.
01:12:22Oh, sir, I'm confused.
01:12:24I'm still married.
01:12:26I have been for 16 years.
01:12:40Ah, just the man we wanted to see.
01:12:41Well, 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.
01:12:53Ah...
01:12:53Convention'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.
01:13:03Yeah.
01:13:03Questions are good.
01:13:04They provide answers like...
01:13:06How long is a piece of string?
01:13:08And what's in the box?
01:13:10No 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!
01:13:23Hey!
01:13:24Hey!
01:13:26Where's it?
01:13:26Hey!
01:13:31Come on.
01:13:37You've got nothing.
01:13:38You 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.
01:13:55Oh, 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.
01:14:57This drop cloth and this golf club, again, the property of the Broken Wood Golf Club were also in your
01:15:04car.
01:15:05How do you explain that?
01:15:08Obviously, someone's broken into my vehicle and 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, ask him how we managed to get your fingerprints all over the items.
01:15:23Are they really?
01:15:25Yep.
01:15:26Here they are.
01:15:29And the other interesting thing about this is the grass residue.
01:15:33There is a pattern here to here.
01:15:40It's like the grass has all been flattened in 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, it's a definite match to the samples from the fake crop circle.
01:15:57That places this drop cloth at the chrome sand.
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?
01:16:17No.
01:16:19Christopher, where were you between 3 and 5am this morning?
01:16:22In my home.
01:16:24Alone?
01:16:24No, I was but, you know, Zelda.
01:16:27In 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 that you remained in the house between 3 and 5am.
01:16:43She was not sleeping.
01:16:45You sure about that?
01:16:46Yes, of course, because we were, you know...
01:16:51What?
01:16:54We were expressing our, uh, love.
01:16:59Sex.
01:17:01For two hours?
01:17:04Yes.
01:17:05Two hours.
01:17:06Wow.
01:17:07That's a lot of love.
01:17:08That'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.
01:17:16The 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 you.
01:17:24When I was abducted aboard the alien spacecraft, there 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, um, Christopher and I are in a platonic relationship.
01:17:45And to make things easier on Christopher, we do not share a bit.
01:17:50They, they will come for him.
01:17:53I'm not so sure anymore.
01:17:55Good night.
01:17:56Good night.
01:17:58So, if in between 3 and 5 a.m. you weren't comforting your almost but not quite yet fiancee
01:18:07with two hours of your manhood, 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.
01:18:24Here, we 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 agonese.
01:18:40Favouring him over you.
01:18:43I want you to take over from me.
01:18:45You must lead on from here.
01:18:47I bet you.
01:18:49Just think about it.
01:18:52Luke, you are the Chosen One.
01:18:57Klax Galong.
01:18:58Many martyrs.
01:18:59Plenty of gorn.
01:19:01You are the Chosen One.
01:19:05So, even with Zelda lying awake, the fact that you didn't share a room meant that you were able to
01:19:11slip out of the house.
01:19:16Into the Greenkeeper's shed where you knew a flamethrower was kept.
01:19:20And any number of potentially lethal weapons.
01:19:24Well, it ain't a carnation but the flower was red.
01:19:28I followed him down like the message had said.
01:19:31And left it all to junior who was soft in the head.
01:19:35Singing only the dead die young.
01:19:41Oh, do I just have to let it go?
01:19:48Oh, do I just have to let it go?
01:19:51Oh, do I just have to let it go?
01:19:52Oh, do I just have to let it go?
01:19:57What better way to validate Zelda's beliefs?
01:20:02And remove your competition?
01:20:10But it didn't kill him, did it, Christopher?
01:20:13That blow?
01:20:16Didn't kill him, did it?
01:20:20No.
01:20:24I, um...
01:20:24Had to make it look like there'd been a visit.
01:20:26My cosmic master.
01:20:30It's a culture.
01:20:34Who would you like?
01:20:35And choose another lover for their side of the beard?
01:20:39We'll stay out and never go home?
01:20:43Pisky gloves.
01:20:45Do I just have to tell it no?
01:20:50Yeah.
01:20:53Pisky gloves.
01:20:56Pisky...
01:20:58Pisky...
01:21:00...Gloves.
01:21:00Oh, he says to let it go
01:21:04Oh, he says to turn on
01:21:32What does this mean?
01:21:35It means you killed Luke Lamarro to impress your girlfriend
01:21:42I'm no longer a fully integrated member of society
01:21:47Am I?
01:22:11Not him to Todd
01:22:14Nah
01:22:15We put in the hard yards though
01:22:16No way
01:22:17You never 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'd be a natural
01:22:33I don't know what it is with this dog
01:22:34He keeps circling back to these burgers
01:22:36I have a triple truffle supreme
01:22:38I'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
01:22:46Marvellous
01:22:46Yummy
01:22:47Oh, God, I 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
01:22:58He'd eat all of you over time
01:23:00Leaving only your teeth and your hair
01:23:02And pigs don't eat hair
01:23:04Lovely as yours is
01:23:07Oh, okay
01:23:08That is interesting
01:23:11As promised
01:23:12Oh, you took your time
01:23:15Since Jacob Lewis is no longer with us
01:23:17No charges will be laid
01:23:18I should hope not
01:23:20Truffle's still on the menu there, I see
01:23:22Seems like a nice girl
01:23:23Deserves a break
01:23:24Doesn't strike me as a lurker
01:23:27Speaking of which, where's your off-sider?
01:23:30Dr. Sims
01:23:31Yeah, she should be here
01:23:33Right about now
01:23:34Oh, God
01:23:43Standing on the corner way down here
01:23:46Watching days go by
01:23:49Gotta pick up a threat somewhere
01:23:51Follow to the end of the line
01:23:53Follow to the end of the line
01:23:56We're coming peace, Earthlings
01:23:58There's a thousand faces on this road
01:24:00No, it's the same
01:24:04Topping with a master road
01:24:06Is what we're supposed to be
01:24:08Yeah
01:24:09Is what we're supposed to be
01:24:11Yeah
01:24:16What?
01:24:22What?
01:24:23What?
01:24:26What?
01:24:28What?
