05:32You know what they call you?
05:35I'll give up.
05:35God.
05:37One day.
05:38speakers
05:38People call an ambulance.
05:40Mal.
05:47Yes Thomas what's up are you at the shop sir I am practicing my darts oh can't say you don't
05:54need it since I got myself a decent set of arrows my form was improved get in I'm presuming this
06:03isn't a social call you got a case a suspected poisoning occurred doing a theater performance
06:08the victim collapsed on stage what you sure it wasn't an accident according to paramedics the
06:13symptoms suggest it's cyanide poisoning interesting no everything all right I think I might have just
06:23nearly killed Harry what are you doing man you can't play on here it's not safe Michael Farah 32
06:34years old suddenly collapsed halfway through the second act of the performance the tempest the
06:40poster said yeah last 10 months they've been touring beaches all over the world with it
06:45this was their final performance sergeant Fletcher's taking all the necessary statements
06:49Caliban I'll take it one sec let me check yes yes he was I mean two points for you inspector
06:58how did you work that out well he looks monster you know not human I assume the smell of almonds
07:06got
07:07the paramedics thinking it was cyanide which is fast acting so do we know what he consumed before he
07:12died well apparently he drank from this moments before it happened it's a fiasco I mean I'm trying
07:19my best here sir I haven't been here for long I just got here oh this is a fiasco oh
07:24it's a
07:25traditional Italian wine bottle he'll have drank from this in act two scene two the famous drinking
07:29scene let me check for you again boom shakalaka two more points for you again inspector it was
07:36indeed act two scene two oh the man knows this Shakespeare he does who knew cherry juice that'll be
07:44for the red wine so chances are we're looking at our murder weapon that's what you think right but it
07:50can't be because two others drank from the same bottle during the performance
07:55Stefano and Trinculo that one I don't know sir but based on your previous farm two pints again so
08:01what happened to the other two actors who drank from this not a thing the paramedics checked them out and
08:05they seem fine and um they recorded the show seen as it was the last performance so I will watch
08:12it back
08:13and check to see what happened but if they did drink from the same bottle then he must have ingested
08:19the
08:19poison some other way hmm let's see what the rest of the company have to say these are two that
08:32drank from the same bottle as a victim mm-hmm just Gorman and Anya Chambers she and the victim were
08:36in a
08:37relationship together and she's taking it pretty badly who are the others so this is Richard Dempster
08:44he directed this production and he also plays uh Prospero there comes a moment in every actor's life
08:52a certain character's call to you I had no choice I had to submit okay and this is Nathan Burns
09:02he's the
09:03company stage manager I swear if there was poison in that bottle it wasn't me that put it in there
09:09actually mr. Burns we're working on the basis that the poison was administered another way really oh
09:13thank god yeah the cyanide's fast acting so if it was in your system we'd pretty much know by now
09:19we'd
09:20like to know what else mr. Farr consumed in the 20 minutes or so before he died Mikey never ate
09:27for a show
09:27not for two or three hours did he drink anything I just sip water what did he drink from uh
09:35one of
09:36those water flask thingies um oh there it is okay so take me through exactly what happened this
09:47afternoon anything out of the ordinary we went up a bit late by about 15 minutes how come
09:55um just um technical hitch and once the show had started oh um Michael was um on stage in scene
10:06one
10:06he doubles as the bosun take in the top sail 10 to the master's whistle no no very very swift
10:15makeup
10:15costume change reappear as Caliban in act one scene two Anya helps um well helped with that and how did
10:25he seem then fine and what about before he went on stage and collapsed a bit nervous pacing buying his
10:34nails he always was before that scene there are a couple of tricky speeches in it but he wasn't looking
10:40ill can any of you think why someone might want to do this to mr. Farrar mikey was loved by
10:51the whole
10:51company very talented boy he had the whole world at his feet
11:07if we're working on the basis that the killer got the poison into Michael's system 15 20 minutes
11:13prior to him dying on stage and it must be one of the cast or a stage crew that
11:21sir why kill someone like that in front of an audience and on the very last show of the tour
11:29i mean after today they could all go home right they never have to see each other again
11:34so why did he have to die on that stage today
11:40this is a public beach right well we're gonna need some security to keep an eye on the crime scene
11:46and get sergeant fletcher and officer rose to do a sweep of the place on it
11:58you all right mr dempster oh oh no 10 months on tour will do this you
12:07come on richard it's time to go
12:22well i recognize you from somewhere oh yeah it's a whole community police scheme thing we're doing
12:30sounds thrilling i didn't catch your name in the frenzy of it all sergeant mattie fletcher sergeant
12:38would you like to go for a drink with me uh while i'm on the island no that's inappropriate
12:44mr gorman you know with me being a police officer and you a possible suspect in a murder case right
12:51yeah well that makes sense um i hope that wasn't too embarrassing not for me it wasn't good good um
12:58i guess as an actor i lost all sense of shame a while ago
13:04did he just ask you on a date during a murder investigation that's a red flag right there
13:08maybe he's the killer maybe he's trying to get close to the police to keep an eye on the investigation
13:13or maybe he's just a bozo that's also a possibility
13:16uh-huh crazy man
13:19uh-huh
13:20uh-huh
13:32take a bow mikey because it's all over now i told you it was always gonna end this way
13:50oh that's great man i'll get the beers yeah yeah and some snacks nice what time should we say
13:55around seven ish yeah cool man all right nice one see you then i just arranged a dance night with
14:03daryl tonight he's gonna get his mates around it's gonna be a bit like being back home you know
14:08lads standing around the dartboard beers banter the only thing that's missing is a sticky pub carpet
14:14and some pork scratchings pork scratchings yeah they are the quintessential english pub snack
14:20it's fried pigskin i'll get some sent over for you oh no rush
14:28uh lab results uh yes and they confirmed the victim died from potassium cyanide poisoning
14:35no surprise there they checked michael's own water bottle and found no traces of the poison in it
14:41whatsoever nothing in his water bowl as for the fiasco cherry juice fairly high glucose levels
14:52they noticed but most importantly a lethal dose of potassium cyanide
15:00that is surprising poison was in the bottle that our victim and the other two actors drank from on stage
15:07so how can three people drink from the same poison bottle and only one of them die
15:12it doesn't make any sense
15:30well we can rule out the pretending to drink theory i mean these guys are drinking from the bottle for
15:35real no question so what if one of the other two actors slipped the poison in on stage just before
15:41michael drank from it yeah rewind it a bit okay play could it be jez now the bottle is in
15:50view the
15:50whole time and he's not adding anything to it oh so michael's not the last person to drink from that
15:56bottle seb's right anya drinks after michael so even if something had been added by jez and he would
16:02have consumed it as well how how do they all drink the same liquid with with poison in it but
16:13only michael farrah
16:14dies
16:17who's sergeant fletcher on the phone to oh an actor's agent back in the uk we misspoke with the rest
16:23of the
16:23cast this morning a um casey briscoe who plays miranda she said she saw nathan burns a casting the
16:31victim just moments before the show even started i'm telling you this is all gonna come back on you
16:36and sooner than you think and there's rumors going around that there's history between them so casey
16:40slash miranda said we should speak to this agent did you get anything from the search
16:46nothing interesting how suspicious you know he's been homing this little tune i've never seen him do
16:55this before me neither inspector what's this funky tune you've been homing god i don't know it's been
17:04in my head since yesterday i can't shake it i can't place it wait a minute
17:24bingo it was an advert it was on the telly about five years ago they kept playing it
17:34see that's what i was humming and why is this relevant wait as a woman i've seen my fair share
17:44that's why and i know they can leave a pretty nasty pong but now i found whiffuster i can leave
17:50that's nathan burns the stage manager man he's like a better actor than all of the others put together
17:56nathan burns was an actor and he has history with our victim i just spoke to an agent in london
18:03who used
18:04to represent nathan she remembers him as being super ambitious the whiffbuster ad wasn't the end of his
18:10rainbow then the agent said about eight years ago nathan had a really important audition for the
18:16production of macbeth at the national theater in london and he didn't get it but guess who did
18:23michael farrow and more than that nathan went to the police at the time
18:29he was adamant that he was spiked before the audition
18:46so i get this big audition and i go down to london and stay in a cheap hotel near the
18:52theater
18:53michael staying in the same place me and him get chatting in the bar the night before what were
18:58you drinking just softs but michael insists on getting the last round i go to bed at 10. next
19:17what happened after that i never got another break like it did a bit of theater and education a couple
19:24of tv ads with buster yeah with buster
19:31then i quit so you tour with this guy for 10 months and it never comes up
19:41mr burns just before the last show you were seen arguing with michael saying
19:46it's all gonna come back on you and sooner than you think mate you're referring to him sabotaging
19:53your audition that's some revenge spiking his drink like he spiked yours i didn't kill michael
20:01because of what he did to me eight years ago still must have bothered you though right otherwise why
20:04bring it up what i just i couldn't stop myself i was never gonna see him again
20:16we'll be in touch
20:24there is definitely something he's not telling us you think
20:40rich
20:42the police have been asking questions i didn't tell them what he did to you but
20:50if there's heat on me again i don't think i can stay quiet any longer
20:57to thine own self be true hey
21:02oh delroy same again if you were okay no problem
21:16sir how come you know so much about shakespeare seems unlikely you know with you being a
21:23day of the match a match of the day kind of guy no disrespect when i was a kid
21:30i used to hang around outside the stage doors of western theaters yeah in case i saw someone famous
21:35yeah they meet vin diesel
21:37no i don't think vin diesel ever trod the boards of london
21:42anyway i got to know some of the staff and they would let me sneak in and watch whatever was
21:46on at the
21:47time so yeah i have seen my fair share of the board's works
21:54also i got talking to the actor sometimes and they would say how hard a gig it was you know
22:00the
22:00failed auditions the unemployment doing rubbish jobs just to make ends meet it was it was tough
22:06competitive as our first suspect found out well could it be that that pushed michael to do what
22:12he did to nathan but it also shows there's a dark side to our victim spiking someone's drink just so
22:17he can get the role he wanted that's ruthless well whatever it was that led someone to poison michael
22:23farrah well we still haven't got a scooby how we pulled it off i mean the man died on stage
22:28right
22:28in the middle of a performance drinking from the same bottle as these two but they didn't die he did
22:38do i wilson speaking yeah i can talk now okay
22:48yeah yeah i understand have you spoken to my brother about this he has right
22:58okay um well um thanks for letting me know
23:06so is everything all right
23:14i knew mum would leave everything to sovereign
23:18i just didn't think he'd put the house up for sale as soon as it was his
23:24i thought we'd at least chat about it first
23:28and what about your mother's things
23:31according to the solicitor is arranged for house clearance company to take everything and
23:35auction it all off
23:38it all seems so rushed to me
23:40of course it's going to feel well
23:42i would have liked at least a last look around the place
23:47maybe keep something of hers to remember her by
23:56then call your brother and tell him that's what you'd like to help him
24:01he's got to understand right
24:18hey you yes
24:21how can i help oh well actually i thought i could help you you know wind down after a hard
24:27day's
24:27police police in the streets
24:30got some beers picnic blanket and um yeah i thought we could find a quiet beach and
24:37get to know each other mr gorman yes did we not already have this conversation
24:43we did yes but i thought what was happening was you know you were on duty you had your
24:48colleagues around you and i think you were saying what you felt you had to say
24:53um no come on i'm not on this island for very long how often do you get to do this
24:59with someone
25:00like me let's just have some fun here we go here we go here we go hmm
25:07yes yes there you go
25:14cheers actually now that i think about it i did say that i was going to meet my friend
25:19what's the time now oh no you're spilling it you're spilling it oh what a shame i do have
25:25somewhere to be right now though
25:29do not bother me again unless it's related to the case mr gorman you understand now good you
25:39enjoyed the rest of your evening
25:58what are you doing so i've been doing background checks on the other cast members
26:03and i noticed anya chambers and jez gorman were in the same play back in 2021 and they ended up
26:11getting together and wait for it they only got married a year later hang on i thought any was with
26:18michael she was she left jez for him during the tour they've been on why did this not show up
26:25sooner
26:25because it wasn't officially registered yet they had a vow ceremony in the forest somewhere
26:30there was a whole midsummer night's dream theme going on yeah yeah you should have seen some of
26:35the photos they posted on social media that was some dress she wore respectfully of course so how did
26:41jez feel about being replaced by michael hmm well according to the other cast members really not so
26:47good seems to be the answer
26:55look i don't know who said that but it's nonsense so when annie told you she was leaving you from
26:59michael you weren't upset sorry why is she here is that normal procedure to bring a uniform sergeant
27:05along it is yep yes it is okay fine so it's nonsense is it that you were upset about anya
27:13yes
27:14i mean annie is the one who's losing out not me all our mutual friends are siding with me she's
27:19the
27:19one who's gonna have to move in with her parents when she gets back home not me i mean it
27:23hurts yeah
27:25of course it hurt really hurt but i didn't kill michael because of it i wasn't looking for revenge
27:33ah this is my agent so i should probably no you shouldn't okay she'll leave a voicemail this is a
27:40murder investigation mr gorman and your wife fell in love with the victim that's a very strong motive
27:46well that's what you're wrong actually they didn't fall in love i mean maybe she did i don't know but
27:52it wasn't reciprocated what makes you say that because he told me so
28:02a few nights before our final performance we all had a bit of a sesh
28:06at the hotel bar some of us went for a dip in the sea michael comes up to me and
28:11says he's gonna end
28:12it with anya because he's got some off-broadway play and she's not what he needs right now
28:20and did he end it with her yeah five minutes before the beginning of our final show
28:28talk about timing eh
28:38thank you ania's in room 352 that was seb the security team at the crime scene say somebody
28:46tried to break into the dressing room area last night guess her description is that something
28:52that we could have missed right you and officer else get down to the crime scene let's go and talk
28:56to
28:58yeah yeah when's the deadline yes sir yeah i'm sure i can get something to put me on tape
29:06mikey and i had gone to collect rich from this bar he drinks in
29:11that was why we went up late so that was the technical edge we literally had five minutes before
29:18the performance was about to start mr dempster come on let's get you dressed fight fight
29:24michael just blurts it out i can't do this anymore i'm going to new york i'm going alone
29:34you gave up your marriage for michael you risked everything
29:40you must have hurt then when he told you it was over between you two so no
29:49what was it that drew you to michael it felt like
29:54the kindred spirit it was something i'd never had with jess in what way
30:02mikey cared so much about his work but it terrified him he was just striving to be as good
30:09as he could and knowing it could all be torn down by a critic or the audience
30:15that vulnerability drew me to him because i feel it too in everything
30:22okay so in that moment when he told you'd finished with you you must have felt betrayed
30:28uh you're angry and within the hour he was dead what what you think i did it
30:36because of i remember how even
30:43you think i carry around around a bottle of cyanide with me just in case i get dumped
30:48and if you've forgotten i drank from the same bottle as him why would i do that if i knew
30:54there was
30:54poisoning it
31:01you know my mom's church has this dirty thing going on and sometimes think about doing a bit
31:09to act to myself you know it's just the words sometimes i really struggle with words like um
31:21the winds did sing it to me and the thunder that deep and dreadful organ pipe pronounced the name of
31:29prosper it did base me trespass base me trespass i mean what does that even mean like base me trespass
31:38like
31:38a boombox type of base less of the base and more of the searching sergeant fletcher commissioner afternoon
31:44afternoon sir might i have a word
31:53how is the investigation going we're making progress sir we've already got a few suspects in mind
32:00is everything all right sir a complaint has been made accusing you of unprofessional conduct
32:10by who jess gourmand claims you tried to initiate a romantic relationship with him he said what and when
32:18he turned you he turned you down twice you pursued him as a suspect in the case that is just
32:26not true we interviewed
32:28him because there was evidence to suggest he had a motive and it was mr gorman who asked me out
32:35twice
32:36i swear to you sir he is making this all up i mean i would never do something like that
32:42sir you believe me right

34:41what happened michael was offered this this this off broadway show was gonna get him some good
34:48publicity in the states well at the same time we had the chance of extending our tour by three months
34:54south america and you didn't want to lose your caliber no and i mean michael was contractually
34:58obliged to stay if further dates were added i'll refuse to release him well we know michael was very
35:04ambitious so i assume he wasn't happy about that it's our first day off in the caribbean
35:12trinidad we all spent the day by the pool
35:18thank you i didn't realize till it was too late oh dear boy putting shots of vodka in my soft
35:25drink
35:26all day once i got the taste for it well double um double whiskey please 20 years without so much
35:34as a
35:35sip it all came crashing down nathan and dear anya they they were first to realize i was
35:41back on the source took it in turn to bless him bring me to bed did you tell them what
35:47michael did
35:47yes i don't think anya believed me but but nathan did nathan yeah there is definitely something
35:55he's not telling us he said that michael had done something not dissimilar to him once spiked his drink
36:03so that's what nathan was holding back when he confronted michael before the final show it
36:09wasn't just about his experience eight years ago i'm telling you this is all going to come back
36:14on you and sooner than you think mate it was also about what he'd been doing to you the irony
36:20of it
36:20is that funding fell through in the end tour was never extended michael got exactly what he wanted
36:25no i had the sense he usually did which brings us back to this little collection i think he poisoned
36:34one
36:34of these lozenges gave it to michael backstage then added poison to that wine bottle on stage after he
36:40died to misdirect us make us think that's what killed him afraid my little plan wasn't quite so smart
36:48well and not so deadly bottle doesn't contain cyanide contains lysergic acid diethylamine
37:01lsd the hallucinogen objected one of the lozenges but not with cyanide i don't want to kill him
37:09i just wanted him to feel how he made me feel all powerless
37:17well i wanted everyone to see it
37:21i would cover that i am i didn't go through with it
37:27and when michael collapsed on stage and we were called
37:31what was i panicked all your frenzy i ran to the beach lockers hit the evidence
37:37and say it was you our security sword trying to get into the dressing room
37:41to get that key did you tell anyone else about your plan so smashed half the time
37:47i could i might have left it lying around i don't know inspector
37:56just a moment
38:03i think he might be telling the truth we've re-watched the video and after michael collapses
38:10no one goes near the bottle he drank from and look jez garman puts down the bottle here
38:15and no one touches it again until i do there so the poison was in the bottle all along
38:24nothing nothing was added afterwards no sir so how come the other two that drank from the bottle
38:30didn't die and he did
38:42you've reached solomon leave a message i'll get back to you
38:47sol it's me again can you call me back please
38:56so i just heard back from a few of jez and anya's friends in the uk trying to get a
39:01handle on their
39:02marriage breaking up
39:05right no one was shocked it seems jez wasn't the most faithful of husbands he saw it as a kind
39:11of
39:13open marriage right and what happens on tour stays on tour and after three years of marriage
39:19anya felt betrayed and humiliated just basically took her for granted but obviously never expected
39:24her to actually leave so when anya hooked up with michael that must have really thrown him
39:34still haven't heard from your brother
39:37you know what i think he's actually ignoring my calls i keep thinking about how things were between
39:43us you know when we last saw each other they weren't great in fact if i'm honest i kind of
39:47think
39:47it's because of me that we're going our separate ways then maybe you should go visit him in antigua
39:53you think yeah just go talk to him
39:57i'm heading to the lab you want me to drop you off on the shack
40:01uh no um take me to the high street please i need to get a bucket and spade
40:07as in a kiddie's bucket and spade for like the beach what other kind of bucket and spade is there
40:15sir um is this for the case or are you having a break now probably both
40:30right well that's me done
40:38sarge you don't need to stress yourself over this jez garman complaint like you said the man's a total
40:44bozo and the commissioner will definitely see that car he can see through the lies
40:51you're not too sure about it there's something that you don't know about me
41:01from before i uh i came back to see a marine in jamaica i i messed up on a case
41:11big time and
41:14and saw my file and the commissioner knows about it so no no i'm not sure he's gonna have my
41:23back on
41:23this that's why you're transferred
41:32well i mean look
41:35i wouldn't be so sure about that search because one thing i know for a fact is that the commissioner
41:42wants to give everyone a chance because i mean he did with me best decision he ever made
42:13morning sirs officer rolls oh say yes thomas sad somebody's giving the inspector some here
42:22i never thought i see the day the man could have an afro whoever did this making a bold statement
42:39morning inspector have you seen the poster someone's giving you a glow up yeah i've seen it yeah that
42:46really brings out your cheekbones inspector kind of suits you oh and he's got his little kiddie's
42:51buckets and spades four of them in fact one bottle one dose of poison
43:04three people drink the same liquid from the same bottle
43:10now how come only one of them ingest the poison and the other two don't well that's not possible
43:16why not they're standing all of them or poison so how how indeed sergeant fletcher
43:26is that from the lab yes oh
43:32confirms the liquid in the bottle we found in mr dempster's cigar box was lsd
43:40not legal but definitely not murder oh sir your buckets oh
43:57the seas washed all the sand away
44:02it's like it was never there
44:08hang on
44:13the water made the sand disappear
44:17or did it actually disappear i mean what if it was there all along i think you poisoned one of
44:24these lozenges and added poison to that wine bottle on stage after he died no one goes near the bottle
44:30you drank from as for the fiasco fairly high glucose levels and if that explains the ball
44:39then where did the poison come from no no very very swift makeup costume change reappear as caliban in
44:46act one scene two and with my long nails i'll defeat
44:51eat us
44:56you know who did it
44:59and i think i know why but what about the whole inspector i mean that's what the whole biggie is
45:04about right i'm pretty sure i know the how as well uh but officer romes i need you to run
45:09another
45:09talks report on mr farrah but i need a glass of water first you're dehydrated no it's not a drink
45:14it's just a little experiment that will finally prove what really happened on stage three days ago
45:20one glass of water coming right up
45:30now i don't want to talk ill of the dead however i think it's fair to say that michael farrah
45:37was a
45:38selfish and self-interested individual who only cared about what he wanted in life
45:44and how he was going to get it but did the malicious and hurtful things he did to each of
45:50you
45:51really mean he had to die
45:56anya you obviously thought he did because it was you that poisoned him
46:01what no i absolutely did not the mystery we've been trying to solve throughout this case
46:11is how three people could drink from the same poisoned bottle yet only one of them dies
46:21we didn't know it but the answer has been right in front of us from the start
46:26and in a way mr farrah gave it to us in his dying breath and with my long nails i'll
46:34dig the pig and
46:35i with my long nails will dig the pig nuts
46:40because that's the thing about caliban he was a monster right and as part of michael's makeup to
46:46help make him look more monstery his nails are painted and that's how he was poisoned
46:54we need to get this to the lab but we've already had michael's fingernails tested and it was confirmed
47:01there were traces of cyanide in the dried varnish it was administered anya by you during his wardrobe
47:10change from the bosun into his caliban costume makeup and painted fingernails
47:18nathan you said michael would get particularly nervous while waiting to go on stage for act two
47:23scene two yeah a bit nervous he would pace and bite his nails which after touring for 12 months together
47:32and having become intimate with him you also knew enya but but i told you michael only ended things with
47:40me half an hour before he died how could i plan his murder in that time you're right michael's murder
47:47was planned in advance but now we know the killer had to be you then it follows that you'd already
47:53found out michael was planning to end his relationship with you you're getting in yeah maybe and with michael
48:01telling jez as much look i'm gonna end things with anya i think you overheard that conversation after
48:07everything i thought you should know and we believe that's when you decided to kill him then if michael's
48:14fingernails were poisoned well why was there poison in the bottle that was to misdirect us right to confuse
48:23us with the seeming impossibility that three people could drink from it but only one die why weren't
48:29they all killed i'm glad you asked me that mr dempster because to answer that we need to look to
48:35your
48:35own plan to get back at michael farrow we know miss chambers helped to put you to bed a number
48:41of times
48:42when you've overindulged nathan the urania they took it in turns bless him bring me to bed and you
48:49admitted yourself you left the cigar box containing the syringe the lozenges i might have left it lying
48:56around and this little bottle lying around the place we believe you came across this box miss chambers
49:09and that's when your plans started to take shape but instead of using lsd you used a fatal poison
49:22so i have to admit it didn't register with me at first the significance but when our lab tested the
49:29liquid in that poison bottle the cherry juice as for the fiasco they found the level of glucose in it
49:38higher than normal that's where this comes in
49:43just over an hour ago i dropped one of mr dempster's throat lozenges in this glass of water
49:49and now look it's gone dissolved
49:57and that's exactly what you did anya with that wine bottle just before yourself jez and michael went on
50:03that stage for act two scene two you see as long as the lozenge was whole and hadn't dissolved
50:12it was safe to drink from which you all did
50:18but by the time we arrived at the crime scene and sent the bottle to the lab to be tested
50:24lozenge had already melted away releasing the poison making it seem like it had been there all along
50:34but why why did you kill him
50:39anya when you and michael got together you were still feeling hurt and embarrassed
50:48by your husband's ongoing infidelities him taking you for granted so for michael the kindred spirit
50:58that you'd risked everything for to humiliate you even further by finishing with you only a few
51:04months after getting together well a bit more than hurt and that's when you realized that perhaps the
51:13rumors you've heard about michael which you previously dismissed were actually true
51:20that mr dempster's claim that michael spiked him actually happened did you tell them what michael did
51:28yes i don't think anya believed me but and that nathan burns his own past running with mr farrell
51:34was more than mere gossip there's been gossip amongst the cast ideas history between them
51:39so you decided to do something that was long overdue and on behalf of yourself and everyone else here
51:46whose life he'd ruined you would give michael something he deserved to make him the one to finally suffer
51:56his own downfall his own humiliation right there on that stage for all the world to see
52:05and that miss chambers is why you killed him
52:17and your chambers i'm arresting you for the murder of michael farrow
52:22you do not have to say anything but it may harm your defense if you do not mention when questioned
52:30something which you later rely on
52:32you're not seeing enough of yourself already it's never enough
52:50return of the bozo could could we have a quick chat please
52:59i uh i just want to let you know that i officially dropped my complaint this morning and um
53:04and i wanted to say i'm sorry you know you could have lost me my job just because i
53:11wouldn't have a drink with you what kind of sick little messed up brain you have yeah that's
53:16pretty much what your commissioner said wait the commissioner yeah he was the one who insisted
53:21i apologize and said he was going to charge me with wasting police time he caught my agent he's a
53:26pretty terrifying guy actually oh and there he is okay well look i'd rather not have to deal with
53:34him again so i'm really sorry
53:48sir he apologized he did thank you sir i'm sorry i couldn't get him to drop his complaint sooner
53:57the man was clearly making it all up so you knew he was lying all along of course but one
54:08has to follow
54:08procedure in situations like this it's i just i just thought you didn't believe me sir you know after
54:21everything that happened before you made a promise to me that there were going to be no more mistakes
54:31and i tend to take people at their word you're a good sergeant i can see that so keep it
54:39up
55:02okay if i get a bullseye on this next row i'll book a ticket to antigua and i'll go and
55:09see soul
55:25um maybe make it best to three yeah another bullseye and i'm definitely going to antigua
55:48i don't believe it
56:02yes thomas i'm just letting you know i won't be coming in tomorrow
56:08i'm actually taking your advice as it goes i'm going to see soul
56:14yeah well i mean i don't even know if he wants to see me but hey what's the worst that
56:20can happen
56:35i think it rather suits him yeah that's the same thing i said sir looks like one of the jackson
56:41five
56:42and it is rather amusing isn't it
56:52sir yes thomas what is it i think something has happened to the inspector
