04:58Michael, look to me.
05:01Oh, my God, he's not breathing.
05:03Someone call an ambulance.
05:05No!
05:06Quick!
05:07Somebody call an ambulance!
05:12Good night.
05:40The next day.
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 good you enjoyed the
25:55the rest of your evening
25:58sergeant fletcher good morning where you got 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 there was a
26:31whole midsummer night's dream thing going on yeah yeah you should have seen some of the photos they
26:36posted on social media that was some dress she wore respectfully of course so how did jez feel about
26:42being replaced by michael hmm well according to the other cast members really not so good seems to be the
26:48answer look i don't know who said that but it's nonsense so when annie told you she was leaving you
26:59from michael you weren't upset sorry why is she here is that normal procedure to bring a uniform
27:05sergeant along it is yep yes it is okay fine so it's nonsense is it that you were upset about
27:13anya yes
27:14i mean annie is the one who's losing out not me all our mutual friends are siding with me
27:18she's the one who's gonna have to move in with her parents when she gets back home not me
27:22i mean it hurts yeah of course it hurt really hurt but i didn't kill michael because of it i
27:29wasn't
27:30looking for revenge ah this is my agent so i should probably take no you shouldn't okay she'll leave
27:39a voicemail this is a murder investigation mr gorman and your wife fell in love with the victim that's a
27:45very strong motive well that's what you're wrong actually they didn't fall in love i mean maybe she
27:51did i don't know but it wasn't reciprocated what makes you say that
27:58because he told me so
28:02a few nights before our final performance we all had a bit of a sesh at the hotel bar some
28:08of us went
28:09for a dip in the sea michael comes up to me and says he's going to end it with anya
28:13because
28:14he's got some off-broadway play and she's not what he needs right now and did he end it with
28:22her yeah
28:24five minutes before the beginning of our final show
28:28talk about timing eh
28:38thank you
28:40anya's in room 352. that was seb the security team at the crime scene say somebody tried to break
28:47into the dressing room area last night guess a description is that something that we could have
28:52missed right you and officer else get down to the crime scene let's go and talk to anya
28:58yeah when's the deadline yes said 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 it
29:11that was why we went up late so that was the technical edge we literally had five minutes
29:17before the performance was about to start mr dempster come on let's get you dressed fight fight
29:23so no matter michael just blurts it out i can't do this anymore i'm going to new york
29:32i'm going alone you gave up your marriage for michael you risked everything
29:40it must have hurt then when he told you it was over between you two
29:49what was it that drew you to michael it felt like a kindred spirit it was something i'd never
29:58had with jess in what way mikey cared so much about his work but it terrified him he was just
30:08striving to be as good as he could and knowing it could all be torn down by a a critic
30:13or the
30:13audience and that 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
30:29angry and within the hour he was dead what what you think i did it
30:36because of who i remember how even
30:43you think i carry around around a bottle of cyanide with me just in case i get dumped
30:49and if you've forgotten i drank from the same bottle as him
30:53why would i do that if i knew there was poison in it
31:01you know my mom's church has this dirty thing going on
31:06and sometimes think about doing a bit hard to myself you know it's just the words sometimes i
31:13really 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
31:29of prosper it did base me trespass base me trespass i mean what does that even mean like
31:36base me trespass like a boombox type of base less of the base and more of the searching sergeant fletcher
31:42commissioner afternoon afternoon 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
32:16he said what and when he turned you down twice you pursued him as a suspect in the case
32:24that is just not true we interviewed him because there was evidence to suggest he had a motive
32:33and it was mr gourmand who asked me out twice i swear to you sir he is making this all
32:39up
32:40i mean i would never do something like that sir you believe me right look sir ask officer rose
32:49he was there the first time mr gourmand asked me out he will tell you very well
32:57leave it with me
33:06exactly what am i looking for
33:10yes though cannot find a thing
33:28sarge i think i found something
33:32what is it
33:37it's a beach like a key
33:40there's a few of them two minutes of the road
34:03i'm assuming that's the cyanide
34:12it's in the throat bozenges
34:14you all right then mr dempster
34:23right mr dempster
34:26this lot has got your fingerprints all over it no one else's you care to explain
34:34it's thanks to michael farrah that i fell off the wagon sorry for this tour i've been sober 20 years
34:41what happened michael's offered this this off-broadway show it's gonna get him some
34:47good publicity in the states well at the same time we had the chance of
34:52extending our tour by three months to south america and you didn't want to lose your caliber no
34:56and i mean michael was contractually obliged to stay if further dates were added i'll refuse to
35:02release him well we know michael was very ambitious so i assume he wasn't happy about that
35:08it's our first day off in the caribbean trinidad we all spent the day by the pool
35:18cheers thank you i didn't realize till it was too late oh dear boy putting shots of vodka in my
35:25soft drink all day once i got the taste for it well double um double whiskey please 20 years without
35:34so
35:34much as a sip it all came crashing down nathan and dear anya they were first to realize i was
35:41back on
35:41the sauce took it in turn to bless him bring me to bed did you tell them what michael did
35:47yes i don't
35:49think anya believed me but nathan did nathan yeah there is definitely something he's not telling us
35:57he 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 wasn't
36:10just about his experience eight years ago i'm telling you this is all going to come back on you
36:15and sooner than you think mate it was also about what he'd been doing to you the irony of it
36:20is that
36:21funding fell through in the end tour was never extended michael got exactly what he wanted no i
36:27had the sense he usually did which brings us back to this little collection i think he poisoned one
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 diathlamine
37:00lsd
37:02the hallucinogen objecting one of the lozenges but not with cyanide i don't want to kill him i just
37:17i wanted everyone to see it i 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 what was a frenzy i ran to the beach lockers hit the evidence and
37:38so it was you our security saw 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 was added afterwards no sir
38:28so how come the other two that drank from the bottle didn't die and he did
38:42you've reached solomon leave a message i'll get back to you
38:47so 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
39:04right
39:06no one was shocked it seems jez wasn't the most faithful of husbands
39:10he saw it as a kind of open marriage
39:14right and what happens on tour stays on tour
39:17and after three years of marriage anya felt betrayed and humiliated just basically took her for
39:22granted but obviously never expected her to actually leave so when anya hooked up with michael that
39:28must 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
39:42between us you know when we last saw each other they weren't great in fact if i'm honest i kind
39:47of
39:47think it's because of me that we're going our separate ways then maybe you should go visit him in
39:52antigua you think yeah just go talk to him i'm heading to the lab you want me to drop you
40:00off at
40:00the shack uh no um take me to the high street please i need to get a bucket and spade
40:05as in a
40:09as in a kitty's bucket and spade for like the beach what other kind of bucket and spade is there
40:15so 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 jess garman complaint like you said the man's a
40:44total bozo and the commissioner will definitely see that car he can see through the lies
40:51you're not too sure about it
40:56there'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
41:12big time and and some my file and the commissioner knows about it so
41:20no no i'm not sure he's gonna have my back on this that's why you transferred
41:32well i mean look
41:35i wouldn't be so sure about that search
41:38because one thing i know for a fact is that the commissioner wants to give everyone a chance
41:45yes because i mean yeah he did with me best decision he ever made
41:52good morning sarge officer rolls
42:15oh say yes thomas sarge somebody's giving the inspector some here
42:22i never thought i see the day the man can have an afro whoever did this making a bold statement
42:38good morning inspector have you seen the poster someone's giving you a glow up yeah i've seen it
42:46that really brings out your cheekbones inspector kind of suits you oh and he's got his little kiddies
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
43:21how indeed sergeant fletcher is 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 i'll start 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
44:29the bottle you drank from as for the fiasco fairly high glucose levels and if that explains the ball
44:39then where did the poison come from you know 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 but officer rome's i need you to run another
45:09talks report on mr farrah but i need a glass of water first you're dehydrated no it's not
45:13a drink it'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
45:55anya you obviously thought he did
45:59because it was you that poisoned him
46:03no i absolutely did not
46:07the mystery we've been trying to solve throughout this case
46:11is how three people could drink from
46:15the same poison 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 i
46:35with 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
47:09during his wardrobe change from the bosun into his caliban costume makeup and painted fingernails
47:17nathan you said michael would get particularly nervous
47:21while waiting to go on stage for act two scene two yeah
47:24a bit nervous
47:25he would pace and bite his nails which after touring for 12 months together and having become
47:33intimate with him you also knew anya but but i told you michael only ended things with me
47:40half 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 it yeah
47:59maybe i'm with michael telling jez as much look i'm gonna end things with anya i think you overheard
48:06that conversation after everything i thought you should know and we believe that's when you decided
48:11to kill him then if michael's fingernails were poisoned well why was there poison in the bottle that
48:19was to misdirect us right to confuse us with the seeming impossibility that three people could drink
48:27from it but only one die why weren't they all killed i'm glad you asked me that mr dempster because
48:33to
48:33answer that we need to look to your own plan to get back at michael farrow we know miss chambers
48:39helped
48:40put you to bed a number of times when you've overindulged nathan the urania they took it in
48:46turns bless him bring me to bed and you admitted yourself you left the cigar box containing the
48:53syringe the lozenges i might have left it lying around and this little bottle lying around the place
49:00we believe you came across this box miss chambers okay rich a sip of water
49:09and that's when your plans started to take shape
49:14but instead of using lsd you used a fatal poison
49:22now i have to admit it didn't register with me at first the significance
49:27but when our lab tested the liquid in that poison bottle the cherry juice as for the fiasco they
49:35found the level of glucose in it higher 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
50:02and michael went on that stage for act two scene two you see as long as the lozenge was whole
50:09and hadn't dissolved it 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
50:54so for michael the kindred spirit that you'd risked everything for to humiliate you even further
51:02by finishing with you only a few months after getting together well a bit more than hurt
51:09and that's when you realized that perhaps the rumors you've heard about michael which you previously
51:17dismissed were actually true that mr dempster's claim that michael spiked him actually happened
51:27did you tell them what michael did yes i don't think can you believe me but and that nathan burns's
51:32own past running with mr farrow was more than mere gossip there's been gossip amongst the cast
51:37ideas history between them so you decided to do something that was long overdue and on behalf of
51:44yourself and everyone else here whose life he'd ruined you would give michael something he deserved
51:52to 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
52:29something which you later rely on
52:32you're not seeing enough of yourself already it's never enough
52:50uh return 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
53:07you know you could have lost me my job just because i wouldn't have a drink with you
53:13what kind of sick little messed up brain you have yeah that's pretty much what your commissioner said
53:18wait the commissioner yeah he was the one who insisted i apologize and said he was going to charge
53:23me with wasting police time he caught my agent he's a pretty terrifying guy actually oh and there he is
53:31okay well look i'd rather not have to deal with him again so i'm really sorry
53:48he apologized he did thank you sir i'm sorry i couldn't get him to drop his complaint sooner
53:58the man was clearly making it all up
54:03so you knew he was lying all along of course but one has to follow procedure in situations like this
54:15i just i just thought you didn't believe me sir
54:20you know after everything that happened before you made a promise to me that there were going to
54:29be no more mistakes and i tend to take people at their word you're a good sergeant i can see
54:37that
54:37so keep it up
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 some
55:30other bullseye and i'm definitely going to antigua
55:48i don't believe it
55:54well that's that then i guess it's really happening
56:02yes thomas
56:04i'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 sol
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
