TVTranscript
00:05It is Friday, it's 5.52pm, and it is the end of the first week with my new clients, Alistair
00:13and Margot Hartnell.
00:14They say they're coming here is the last roll of the dice for them. They had been on the cusp
00:20of getting a divorce.
00:21Walk forward. Turn right. Turn right! Turn left. No, no, wait. No, sorry. That's my...
00:28For God's sake, Alistair! Love has been replaced by hostility. You're useless at this! That's enough!
00:35Sorry, darling. All trust has gone. For God's sake! Sorry. Sorry!
00:39It's okay. It's okay. Compounded by the fact that they seem unable to communicate in a meaningful and a reciprocal
00:46way.
00:46I feel unheard when I talk to you about how I'm feeling.
00:53Well, often, when you do want to talk, I've got work on my mind, and that's important, too.
01:03So it's just a case of bad timing, that's all.
01:06Their marriage doesn't make sense to them anymore.
01:09Over the course of the coming weeks, I'd like to see if we can retrace the steps that led to
01:15this situation,
01:15and see if we can work out how they got here.
01:18Next, we have Luke and Stacey Warber.
01:22I believe the fault lines don't run as deep with them.
01:25I'm grateful for how patient you are,
01:28and that you're here with me now, doing this,
01:33because I know I'm not giving you what you need.
01:36That's so sweet, babe.
01:38On the surface, they have a loving marriage,
01:42but now can we try taking each other's hands, please,
01:46and maintaining that same eye contact?
01:49By their own admission, there are significant intimacy issues.
01:52Why can't you do this?
01:56I'm sorry.
01:58I'm sorry, sorry. Could I take five?
02:00It's okay. Of course.
02:02It's okay, Luke.
02:05Take your time.
02:07I mean...
02:08It's okay.
02:08It's all part of the process.
02:11It's Friday.
02:12It's the beginning of the weekend now,
02:14but Monday will be a big day.
02:16I have exciting plans.
02:18I think that there could be a real breakthrough.
02:23Hello.
02:24Darling.
02:27Mine's good.
02:29This looks nice, doesn't it?
02:31Yeah.
02:32Hi, everyone.
02:33Hi.
02:33I just wanted to say thank you very much
02:36for all your hard work
02:38and your commitment this week.
02:39You should be very proud of yourselves.
02:42There's more for us to do next week,
02:45but for now, enjoy your evening.
02:50Right, bon appetit.
02:52Cheers, everyone.
02:53Cheers.
02:56Cheers.
02:58Wow.
03:20I just feel like every single thing I say is wrong.
03:24Every word, every utterance.
03:26She pounces on it like a wild animal.
03:29Yeah.
03:30She certainly has a way with her words, your missus.
03:36I thought you'd never ask.
03:37It's only duty-free.
03:41That's Kira's stuff.
03:43Can't still be swimming, can she?
03:45Thank you very much.
05:00Opening up more and sharing with each other.
05:04Nah.
05:05Ah, crime scene.
05:09Inspector, I don't think you should wear that to the crime scene.
05:12Why not?
05:12Because it's got I Heart St. Marie on the front of it.
05:19Hmm?
05:21Still haven't gotten your clothes back then.
05:23I must have left 50 messages for Solomon.
05:26This is the only shirt he didn't take.
05:27But I've got a mate from the Met to call in a favour,
05:30and I've got him to triangulate his phone for me.
05:32Yeah.
05:33That's a very good use of their resources.
05:35Hey, listen.
05:36He stole from me, and that is a crime.
05:41Inspector, I just think you should take the hat off.
05:44Yeah, all right.
05:53The victim is Kira Mayhew.
05:5742 years old, fully qualified clinical therapist.
06:00Ran a couples retreat here.
06:02Cars of death looks like a drowning.
06:04Went for a swim at 7 o'clock yesterday evening,
06:07and at 9 o'clock,
06:08two fishermen came across a body about 100 metres out,
06:12directly opposite this spot.
06:14They watched over the body until the paramedics arrived.
06:16Who else was here last night?
06:19About six people in total.
06:21Four residents, two staff, the chef and the waitress.
06:24There's some bruising around her neck and shoulders.
06:26Looks like finger marks.
06:27Paramedics say they're recent.
06:29More likely from someone forcing her down under the water.
06:32They reckon it's murder.
06:34That's why they called us.
06:35So what?
06:36She swam out to sea,
06:38and somebody was with her and did this.
06:40Or maybe somebody was waiting for her out there on a boat.
06:43Inspector, what would you say if I told you
06:45I just found a bingo ball at the crime scene?
06:48I'd say, have you actually found a bingo ball at the crime scene?
06:52And I would say yes.
06:53Yes, I did find a bingo ball at the crime scene.
06:5713.
06:58Unlocking for some.
07:01I mean, it probably doesn't have much to do with Kira Mayhew's murder, though, right?
07:06We don't know yet.
07:07Let's bag it.
07:08Oh, OK.
07:09The bingo ball's officially evidenced now.
07:11Bag in the bingo ball.
07:13All right.
07:14Sergeant Fletcher, you talk to the staff.
07:17Officer Rose, see if there's any security cameras in the place.
07:20And DS Thomas, let's talk to the guests.
07:22There.
07:23Oh.
07:24I'll keep on with that.
07:26Sure.
07:29Sorry, did you just say murder?
07:31What, I thought it was an accident?
07:33Well, it wasn't.
07:34So we need to ask you where you all were between the hours of seven and nine last night.
07:38Are you saying we're suspects?
07:39When did you last see Kira Mayhew?
07:41Before dinner, we were having some aperitifs, and she came and told us to have a nice night.
07:46Enjoy your evening.
07:49What time was that?
07:51Just before seven.
07:52She went for a swim and didn't see her again until she was...
07:56Was, um...
07:58Dead?
08:00Just say it.
08:03And was that a regular thing, her going for a swim at that time?
08:07Seemed to be, like, most evenings.
08:09Kira said it was her own therapy.
08:11Getting into the sea after a long day, she found it restorative.
08:16And during the two hours between you seeing her and her body being found, you were...
08:21We were all together having dinner.
08:26Look, it wasn't one of us, okay?
08:29Nobody told us that we were going to be grilled like this.
08:31None of us have even been to bed.
08:33Mama took a sleeping pill.
08:38Don't apologise for me, Alistair.
08:40You know I hate it when you do that.
08:42Sorry, dear.
08:42And don't call me dear, either.
08:44No, of course not.
08:45Sorry.
08:45For God.
08:47Okay.
08:49Well, if you think of anything, let us know.
08:55God help us.
09:02I spoke with the staff who can alibi each other for the time of the murder.
09:06They were preparing dinner between seven and nine.
09:10You think you're listening?
09:11I'm listening.
09:12Just checking, sir.
09:13What did they say about the victim?
09:15Well, that she was a decent boss.
09:17Always paid them on time.
09:18Was friendly.
09:19Any idea you'd want to harm her?
09:21No.
09:21They reckon she didn't really know anyone here.
09:23Never saw her go out much.
09:25Kept herself to herself.
09:26I checked her phone.
09:28All her texts and all her emails, work-related.
09:31Apart from her mum back in England.
09:33How's she doing?
09:35Not great.
09:36We said we'd speak tomorrow when she might be a little bit calmer.
09:40I found this.
09:43Date and time is yesterday.
09:465.52 in the afternoon.
09:49That's just over an hour before her swim.
09:59It's the weekend now, but Monday will be a big day.
10:03I have exciting plans, and I think that there could be a real breakthrough.
10:12My instinct on this is that a lie is being told.
10:18If I can draw out the truth, the fallout would be truly devastating.
10:27And only a couple of hours later, she's been murdered.
10:30You're thinking one of the guests here did it?
10:33I'm thinking maybe one of them did.
10:37On one hand, all the four guests were having dinner together at the time of Kira Mayhew's murder.
10:44Now look, there are only two cameras in the resort.
10:47Just before 7 o'clock, Kira Mayhew goes for a swim.
10:50But on the other hand, all the guests leave the table once during the evening.
10:55So, in theory, it could have been any one of them.
10:59Alright, um...
11:00Now here.
11:01At 18 minutes past 7, Mr. Hartnell goes to his bedroom to get his glasses.
11:06And in here, 7.46, Stacey Wabba goes to the bathroom to check her makeup.
11:12So, and at 8.03, Mrs. Hartnell goes to grab her shawl.
11:16And after that, at 8.30, Luke Wabba goes to his bedroom to get a bottle of rum.
11:22So, each of them had opportunity to kill the victim during the dinner?
11:27Except, on the other hand, no one leaves the table for more than two to three minutes.
11:34And they all returned dry as a bone.
11:36Okay, so how did one of them manage to leave the dinner table, run down to the beach, get themselves
11:42somehow out to sea 100 meters, drown Kira Mayhew...
11:46Then come all the way back, dry off, before returning to the table in less than a few minutes.
11:54Well, that's just not possible.
12:08All right, Sebastian, I'll read the victim's notebook.
12:12You make us start listening to these tapes.
12:14Focus on the ones recorded since the four suspects arrived.
12:17Yeah.
12:18Oh, these tapes are teeny tiny.
12:21Look, they make me look like a giant.
12:23Says the giants.
12:26So, printed the victim. Schedule the day of her murder.
12:29Trust exercises in the morning. Sounds fun.
12:33Lunch, followed by one-to-one sessions in the afternoon with Stacey Walbert, then Alistair Hartnell.
12:39Inspector, I came to check in on the murder case.
12:43The minister gets nervous when one of our resorts is hit by a crime.
12:48I'd like to reassure her it's in harm.
12:52Yes, sir. We're currently working on the basis that one of the four residents did it.
12:57We just need to work out which one it was, and how they did it.
13:01And why.
13:02So, pretty much everything.
13:07You look smart, sir.
13:10Going somewhere nice?
13:11Yacht club.
13:12Lobster night.
13:14Hmm?
13:17Lobster night, eh?
13:19That's why you're looking so snappy.
13:23You know, snappy.
13:25Like, claws.
13:27No, no, no.
13:28Lobster claws.
13:28I get the joke, Inspector.
13:30I just didn't find it very funny.
13:36Enjoy your evenings?
13:37You too, sir.
13:38Snappy.
13:39Like claws, you know.
13:43Nope.
13:44I need to get this.
13:46Hello, mate.
13:49Excuse me, Commissioner.
13:54Anton Boussette.
13:56How long has it been since we last...
13:58Crossed paths?
13:59Or were you going to say crossed swords?
14:03I hadn't decided before you caught me off.
14:07How can I help you, Mr. Boussette?
14:09Anton, please.
14:11We're going to publish an article about you, Commissioner.
14:14And I want to give you the right to respond.
14:18Here is a draft copy of the piece.
14:23Let me know when you're ready to talk.
14:30Inspector, that was your contact at the Met, wasn't it?
14:33You know where Solomon is?
14:35Palm Beach Hotel.
14:36I'm coming with you.
14:55It's something I could easily live without.
14:58But once you have your own private jet, it's hard to give that up, you know?
15:02I love it.
15:04Ladies, here's for a fun night, right?
15:11Solomon.
15:13Mervyn!
15:14Oh!
15:15Francis seeing you here, man!
15:17We're just talking about you.
15:18Come, come, come, come, come, come.
15:20Meet Tashel and Tashana.
15:23This is my brother, would you believe?
15:26Mervyn!
15:26We're half-brothers.
15:27Where's my stuff?
15:28You stole from me and I want my things back.
15:30I never stole anything.
15:32He gets confused sometimes.
15:34Had a bump to his head a few years back in that.
15:36Solomon!
15:37I'm not joking around.
15:39You get me my things now or I arrest you.
15:41It's your choice.
15:43Okay, man.
15:44I understand.
15:46Let me just...
15:54Oh!
15:55Oh, God!
15:55John, are you okay?
15:56I'm fine!
15:57Come on, get him!
16:22Now you can add assaulting a police officer to theft and breaking and entering.
16:26Mervyn!
16:27My brother, please don't do this to me.
16:29I'm sorry, all right?
16:31I just...
16:32I really needed the money.
16:34I'm in debt.
16:35And it's to the kind of person you don't much want to be in debt to.
16:41I'm sorry I let you down.
16:42I just...
16:45I didn't know what else to do.
16:47I just need my stuff back, Sol.
16:5124 hours.
16:53Otherwise, I'm pressing charges.
16:54Do you understand?
16:57Appreciate it, man.
17:13So, we dusted the bingo ball for prints, sir, like you requested, but got nothing from it.
17:18Oh.
17:19Oh, well.
17:20Worth a try, eh?
17:22Right.
17:23What else we got?
17:24We've done background on both couples.
17:27The Hartnells live in Islington in London.
17:31He's a barrister.
17:32She runs a luxury interior design business.
17:35Oh, very Islington.
17:36They did a brief spell of grief counselling with another therapist shortly after their daughter died.
17:42She was only 17.
17:45Seems their marriage has been struggling ever since.
17:48What about the Warbers?
17:50Also live in London.
17:52Luke works in finance, earns well.
17:55Has been married to Stacey for three years.
17:57I've been reading the victim's notes on both couples.
18:00She records a lot after her sessions with them, especially on the dictaphone.
18:04But it's okay.
18:06Officer Rose is working on it.
18:08Yes.
18:09Yes, I am.
18:10I am totally on top of it.
18:12So, don't you worry, Inspector.
18:15It seems the Warbers came out here because they've been having intimacy issues.
18:21It's been 18 months since they were last intimate with each other.
18:26When you say intimate, you mean intimate?
18:29Yes.
18:30And according to the notes, the issue is entirely on Luke's side.
18:35And in one of their last sessions, Miss Mayhew got in to admit why he was like this.
18:41Go on.
18:4218 months ago.
18:43Luke was unfaithful.
18:45He had a one-night thing.
18:47Naughty, naughty boy.
18:48Mm-hmm.
18:49With him wife's sister.
18:51Cha-cha.
18:53Oh, sorry, what?
18:54Mm-hmm.
18:55And ever since, he's been wracked with guilt and shame.
18:57Why?
18:58He's been a busy, busy man.
19:00I mean, that explains why he can't do the business.
19:03Mm-hmm.
19:04Now, Kira told him that he needs to confront it, that he can't ignore it anymore.
19:12She was suggesting he tell Stacey.
19:14I think she knew their marriage couldn't move forward based on a betrayal like that.
19:19Is that what Kira Mayhew was referring to when she said,
19:23My instinct on this is that a lie is being told.
19:27So, Luke killed her to silence her?
19:31Stop the truth coming out?
19:37It's a cliche, isn't it?
19:39Saying something's the biggest mistake of your life.
19:42How did it happen?
19:43I don't know.
19:44I just...
19:46People flirt, you know?
19:48With Stacey, we go for a night out and the blokes swarm in.
19:53I mean, you've seen her.
19:54She's gorgeous.
19:55She could have anyone if she wanted.
19:58And what happened with me and Shell, her sister,
20:01it felt like I was...
20:03Like I was proving myself that I've still got it too, you know?
20:07But something in you must have wanted to come clean
20:10because you admitted it to Kira Mayhew.
20:12I thought she'd help.
20:13In what way?
20:15Absolve me of the guilt if I opened up.
20:18I think that's a priest you're after.
20:20But all she said was that the marriage couldn't survive
20:22if it was built on a betrayal like that.
20:26She's normally so calm and measured, but with that...
20:30It really bothered her.
20:32Like she wasn't going to let it go.
20:35And that's what worried you.
20:37Panicked you that she would tell Stacey herself.
20:40And then you'd lose your gorgeous wife completely.
20:42But you weren't going to let that happen.
20:44And that is why you murdered Kira Mayhew.
20:46No.
20:47No.
20:49That's why I've come to you.
20:50Because I know what it looks like.
20:52But it wasn't me who killed her.
20:55I swear to you.
20:59Alright.
21:02That's all for now.
21:16What a moron.
21:18It's her.
21:23Inspector.
21:25Postmortem's in.
21:26Confirms what we thought.
21:28Water in the victim's lungs confirms she died due to droning.
21:32Finger marks on her shoulders and neck suggest she was forced under the water.
21:38But how did the killer manage to do it?
21:40To leave from the dinner table here, run down to the beach, drown Kira, then get back to the dinner
21:47table, seemingly with not a spot of water on them.
21:49And in just a few minutes.
21:52And how does this figure into all of this?
21:54Why was it at our crime scene?
21:56You do know things get washed up on beaches all the time.
22:01Yeah.
22:01But a bingo ball?
22:05Officer Rose.
22:08Officer Rose.
22:11Officer Rose.
22:13Have you made any progress with the tapes yet?
22:16No progress as such.
22:18But I assure you, when I get something, you'll be the first to know.
22:22Inspector, I just spoke with the victim's mum, Sandra.
22:25Go on.
22:26To this day, her mum doesn't know why Kira left the UK.
22:30She didn't just want a change of scene.
22:32No, it was totally out of the blue.
22:35Overnight, Kira left her fiancé, announced that she was setting up a practice abroad, never even kept in touch with
22:40any of her friends.
22:42So it got me thinking, could Kira Mayhew's murder be connected to something that happened back in the UK?
22:52Also, sir, Kira's mum spoke with her just before that swim, while she was heading down to the beach.
23:02And she's...
23:05Officer Rose, see what's going on out there, will you?
23:11Anyway, she said Kira seemed distracted.
23:16Distant, even.
23:17Her mum said it was like she wasn't even present.
23:20Inspector, some big-headed bird in a sports car is asking for you.
23:35So, you got my stuff, then?
23:38Not in a physical sense, no.
23:40What's that supposed to mean?
23:41Been a busy day.
23:42Bit of business here, bit of business there.
23:44Always somewhere I got to be in Salomon land.
23:49But, I know who has your thing, so...
23:54Jump in, and let's go get there.
24:05So, this is where all my stuff is?
24:08Nice.
24:09It's Myrta Chastanets, please.
24:10Yes.
24:11You ever come across her?
24:12No.
24:13Funnily enough.
24:14She's the kind of person you go to if you have some things to sell that maybe other people may
24:18be less inclined to.
24:19So, she fancy stolen goods?
24:20It's not for me to put a label on what...
24:22So, that's a yes.
24:24We'll have you reunited with your stuff in no time.
24:27She's a very amenable woman.
24:31Who is it?
24:32Myrta Chastanets, it's Salomon Clark, remember me?
24:35Got my brother here with me.
24:37It was his stuff I sold you, and...
24:41We were wondering if we could get it back.
24:43No!
24:43No, clear up!
24:45Myrta!
24:46Honey!
24:47Don't you honey me, monster!
24:49She's a lot more vexed than I remember her being before.
24:51Myrtle!
24:52I'm going to cut to the chase.
24:53You are currently in possession of items illegally taken from my home.
24:59Myrtle!
25:04Think she's thinking about it.
25:11What the...
25:12What's she do that for?
25:14What is this stuff?
25:16It's in my eyes.
25:18It's burning.
25:19Hot sauce.
25:19God!
25:20Why'd she pull hot sauce over me?
25:22I don't know, man.
25:24But she got to admit.
25:25Kind of funny.
25:30Myrtle, I know what you're playing at!
25:32How much hot sauce has she got?
25:33Why has she got so much of it?
25:34I think it's some bootleg thing she's got going on.
25:36If you first go set your packet, then I will set Tiberius on you.
25:39Who's Tiberius?
25:42Feels like we're coming at a bad time.
25:45Maybe we should come back another day.
25:49They're threatening to publish this article.
25:54Doesn't hold back, does it?
25:57After everything I've done for this island, this is the thanks I receive.
26:04And the fact that Anton Bucetti's sharpening the knives was of no surprise to me.
26:11You and he have history?
26:13Because I have no respect for this gossip-mongering rag.
26:17This isn't journalism.
26:19This is attention-running rhetoric.
26:26What?
26:30This island petitioned to get you your job back.
26:34And you walked away without any explanation, like you didn't care.
26:38And now, months later, you come back as if nothing happened.
26:43I do care.
26:46You know that.
26:47But others don't.
26:50All they know is that their commissioner of police abandoned them.
26:56It's up to you to change their minds.
27:00Oh, my eyes won't stop singing, man.
27:03Tell me about it.
27:04The sun should go down into my trousers.
27:09I'm telling you, Mervyn, there's hot sauce in places.
27:12Hot sauce is not supposed to go, Mervyn, man.
27:22That's some mighty fiery sauce Mervyn's been cooking up.
27:26I mean, look at us.
27:27We're covered in the stuff.
27:29Like a couple of chicken wings.
27:47You're a liability, Saul.
27:51You know that.
27:54My life has been turned upside down since you came into it.
27:58Yeah, I kind of have that effect.
28:02I can't live like that, man.
28:07I'm a detective inspector.
28:09Do you understand that?
28:13And I need my clothes back.
28:16And I need to not be chasing around after you.
28:21This is not how I...
28:31I'm sorry, Mervyn.
28:37Come on.
28:54Oh, my God.
28:56Oh, my God.
28:57Oh, my God.
29:12Oh, hey, Sarge.
29:13Yeah, all right there, you same boat?
29:15Yeah, just, um, what are you doing here?
29:19Been having drinks with a friend from Jamaica.
29:21I was just on my way home when I see the lights are on.
29:24And I realize, Officer Rose is working leaves.
29:27Why is Officer Rose working leaves? I'm asking myself.
29:31Yeah, just, um, going through these tapes.
29:36Still, still on these tapes.
29:41And which one you on now, then?
29:44Tape number two.
29:47Two? Tape two? Is that all?
29:49I'm sorry, Sarge. It's just every time I start listening,
29:53my mind just wanders somewhere else.
29:55Then I start thinking about other things.
29:57So then I rewind the tape to the beginning.
30:00But then the same thing happens all over again.
30:03It's...
30:07It's just...
30:09My brain, you know?
30:11Can get a bit fidgety sometimes.
30:13Like, I know what I'm meant to be doing and I intentionally try to do it.
30:19But my mind just does its own a thing.
30:23I just want to finish this.
30:28Hmm.
30:30All right.
30:31How about...
30:33We go through this together.
30:35You and me.
30:37You sure, Sarge?
30:39I know.
30:40If it was me here needing assistance,
30:43you would do exactly the same thing.
30:45Right?
30:48No.
30:51I'm just joking.
30:52Of course I would.
30:53No question.
30:54So there you go, then.
30:58All right.
30:59Let's do this thing.
31:03Let's do this thing.
31:03My boy.
31:07So, you have a good time with your friend?
31:09Oh, it was cool, you know.
31:10Yeah?
31:11Nice to hear all the gossip going on back in Kingston.
31:16You know, you never did tell me why you left Jamaica.
31:25I left because of a guy I was seeing.
31:31Things got complicated between us.
31:35And, um...
31:38I just realized the best thing that I could do
31:43was just to turn and walk away.
31:47Hmm.
31:48Hmm.
31:49Hmm.
31:55Hmm.
31:56Hmm.
32:06Hmm.
32:10Hmm.
32:12Hmm.
32:16Hmm.
32:26good morning isaac good morning good morning clarence good morning ah how was the catch this
32:34so so so let me look let me look let me see okay i i want that one there that
32:41big one
32:46good morning sarge morning inspector i'm here we got your message
33:05so i was doing a bit of nosing around the old place and uh bingo literally oh so that's where
33:11it came from yeah apparently this place used to be a resort for the over 60s so this must have
33:16been here since then okay so how do you explain one of those bingo balls ending up on the same
33:22beach as our crime scene well it didn't magic itself there did it somebody must have taken it
33:28from this so we're gonna have to dust it for prince i could do that for you sir oh nice
33:34one
33:35all right how about you two you got something so the tapes care of me who recorded over the last
33:41week there was 10 hours of it and throughout it all when she talks about alistair and margot hartnell
33:48she doesn't once mention they lost a daughter she was only 17. seems their marriage has been
33:55struggling ever since
33:58which was kind of odd right so we did some digging their daughter charlotte was killed in a car accident
34:05a hit and run but the person who did it was never found all that was known was that it
34:10was a female
34:11driver only the hit and run happened outside the family home in islington kira mayhew's practice was
34:19just over a mile away also it happened on the first of april 2021 and kira mayhew she moved over
34:27here
34:28six weeks later is it possible that that's what it was kira was behind a car accident
34:37that's good work a pair of you well done you go and get that dusted and uh we're going to
34:42talk to the
34:43heart knows so who's going to hold this then we didn't come here because we suspected kira mayhew was
34:52a woman who killed our daughter we came in a last ditch attempt to save our marriage truly we did
34:59then why did you never mention to miss mayhew the fact that you lost your daughter by your own
35:04admission your relationship problem started five years ago the same time
35:11we didn't talk about it with her because we never talk about it it's easier if we don't
35:18margot tries bless her or used to you know to try to get me to open up but i just
35:24can't bear it
35:28i don't want to lose her i want to fix our marriage but i can't if i have to churn
35:34all that up again
35:37i'm just not strong enough it's all right my love
35:51if the hartnalls didn't come here for revenge then the question still remains why did kira mayhew leave
35:56london five years ago what happened to make us suddenly up sticks and move to the other side of
36:00world please give me a call when you get this just just let me know you're okay
36:11so it's stacy i think she's had a meltdown i haven't seen her since yesterday
36:17i think she knew i think kira told her about me and her sister
36:24mishnah everything all right we'll look into it
36:42i saw she was upset crying so i went over as soon as she said she was staying at the
36:49conference retreat
36:50i've called you couldn't get much from her except she didn't want me to phone her husband
36:59yeah well that's hardly surprising
37:02uh sir um maybe i should take this one
37:21everyone knows don't they only us may i
37:31can you tell me when you found out mrs warburg
37:37thursday night i went to get some air on the beach and kira was there
37:42she'd been drinking she's not seen it like that she'd always been so composed she could hardly stand
37:49up so i helped her back to her bungalow she was sort of rambling talking about some guy who had
37:56betrayed her back in england before she moved here i've been cheating on her i got her home and put
38:02her on
38:02the couch and she looked me in the eyes and spoke to me like it really mattered don't be like
38:10me
38:11don't be stacy there was just something in the way she'd said it
38:16then i knew she'd had a one-to-one session with luke that day and maybe whatever he'd said had
38:20like
38:21triggered her reminded her of her own betrayal that's why she was drunk
38:27so when she was asleep i saw her notebook
38:33i felt sick couldn't even process it couldn't even breathe
38:42so i just pretended i didn't know stacy you've been through a lot in the last couple of days
38:51if you were in denial if kira was pressing you to confront what you'd found out no i didn't
39:00i admit there was all this pent up stuff inside me but i didn't kill kira i swear
39:15all right well thank you for talking with me mr shaw what did the ex-boyfriend have to say for
39:20himself the ex-fiancé the affair he was having had been going on for three whole years behind kira's
39:28back when she found out wow that must have flawed her i mean her job is to provide relationship advice
39:34and all the time she was blind to a three-year-long deception explains why she suddenly upped and left
39:40for another country and why luke's betrayal triggered her so much and why she had one or three over
39:46the limit but it still doesn't explain why she was murdered three nights ago inspector ds thomas i think
40:01we got signed patrick campbell therapist consultation fee 150 dollars he's based in guadeloupe specializes in
40:11hypnotherapy kira called him friday afternoon asking for advice he offered to share their conversation as
40:18part of our investigation on what she said a client of hers margot hartnell had just opened up to her
40:26and was struggling with the memory of an event of her recent past because she had completely blocked it
40:31out which apparently is not uncommon for people dealing with traumatic experiences and according to
40:36mr combo it's a pretty unorthodox approach for kira to resort to hypnotherapy so early on in the process
40:43she was convinced it was necessary so this forgotten memory do we know what it's to do with the night
40:50their daughter was killed in the hit and run five years ago mrs hartnell does not remember a thing about
40:56it but ever since she's been growing this feeling of guilt you know like maybe she might have done
41:04something bad that night wait you don't mean all that was known was that it was a female driver mrs
41:16hartnell
41:17wanted it all off the record that's why there was nothing in her notes or recordings right we need to
41:24talk to mrs hartnell and that therapist we need him here sharpish come on
41:30well at first it was just guilt i felt our grief counselor said it was normal as a parent to
41:36feel
41:36a sense of responsibility look whatever i did five years ago i want the truth to come out if you
41:43think
41:43i killed kira mayhew because i wanted to stop that happening you're wrong she arranged for me to have
41:49hypnotherapy today well that can still happen mrs hartnell we've arranged for a hypnotherapist to speak
41:56with you if you feel you're able inspector if you wouldn't mind going with sergeant fletcher yeah
42:09i guess all we can do now is wait
42:18ah we're back to the bingo ball inspector sarge just got back from dusting off the bingo ball machine
42:26for prints unfortunately nothing
42:34what's up with the inspector am i right
42:41inspector everything all right sir you've got something
42:46sir what are you doing
42:50it's a little experiment the bingo balls float
43:13okay so why take it out of the bingo ball cage thingy and bring it to the sea to the
43:21water's edge
43:22was it just to see if it floats or maybe it's to see where it goes
43:33in which case so how did one of them manage to leave the dinner table run down to the beach
43:39somehow get themselves 100 meters out to sea drown kira mayhew none of them left the table for more
43:45than two to three minutes at a time and was that a regular thing or going for a swim at
43:51that time
43:52most evenings she said kira seemed distracted
44:01of course that's why you were there you little beauty
44:09okay i need to speak to a fisherman or an oceanographer ologist type of person basically anyone who knows
44:15the currents in this bay ds thomas i need a toxicology report done on kira mayhew officer
44:20rose i need you to collect some evidence from her office but you know who did it i do and
44:27i know
44:27how they managed to drown kira mayhew 100 meters out of sea without even stepping a foot in the water
44:34come on
44:38for those wondering why margot hartnell isn't here with us it's because she's currently with a
44:43hypnotherapist doing what she was always supposed to be doing today
44:47trying to recover a buried memory of what really happened five years ago the night her daughter died
44:55why am i telling you this because margot's therapy sessions were meant to be conducted by kira mayhew
45:03until somebody tried to stop the truth from coming out by murdering her mr hartnell
45:13me i i did no such thing oh oh but you did i know you did but how i was
45:20at dinner when it happened
45:21on dry bloody land yeah you were which is why it was so clever of you but now that i've
45:27got a better
45:27understanding of what's gone on i believe you created a small window of opportunity
45:32in which to commit murder but not 100 meters out at sea you drowned kira mayhew right outside your own
45:41bungalow because from the very start of this case we've worked on the assumption that as miss mayhew's
45:49body was discovered 100 meters out at sea in a straight line from where she swam that's where she
45:55was drowned but what if actually when miss mayhew went for her evening dip she preferred to swim along
46:03the shore rather than out from it that would mean she'd have to swim past your bungalow farther along
46:11the beach and that would give you opportunity to commit murder
46:17but when i told you i was at dinner when it happened yeah we have security camera footage
46:23that shows you leaving the dinner table to get your glasses at 18 minutes past seven i was gone
46:31what a couple of minutes three minutes at the most you're not seriously suggesting i was able to
46:37physically drown a fit and healthy woman in that time without getting soaked in water yeah sounds
46:43impossible right but i don't think miss mayhew was as fit and healthy as she might normally be i believe
46:51you sedated her we know that your wife uses sleeping pills none of us been to bed and i took
46:58a sleeping
46:59pill and we also know that you are the last person to have a one-to-one session with miss
47:04mayhew that day
47:05at 5 pm one-to-one sessions in the afternoon with stacy warber then alistair hartner and while there
47:15we believe you spiked her drink when she wasn't looking we didn't believe kira was drugged because
47:24the finger marks on her neck suggested she was held down by force and drowned we're awaiting the toxicology
47:29report and results from the glass kira drank from and have no doubt we'll get confirmation that there
47:35were significant traces of sleeping pills in her system and so while miss mayhew was swimming she
47:43suddenly felt drowsy and swam ashore when you returned to your bungalow under the pretense of
47:52getting your glasses you ran down to the beach where miss mayhew was lying unconscious on the sand
47:58and then you did two things first you grabbed her neck and shoulders making sure to leave bruises
48:05so it would look like someone had strangled her and forced her under the water before moving her into
48:13the sea for her to be carried away making sure that she was face down so that still unconscious her
48:20lungs
48:20would fill with water it took less than a minute all you had to do now was hurry back to
48:28the dinner
48:28table and leave kira to drown and let the sea do the rest of the work for you we checked
48:36with a local
48:37oceanologist at the university and the current in this bay moves in a north westerly direction which
48:44means it would have carried miss mayhew's body diagonally taking her from your bungalow here to
48:52where her body was discovered here and with her clothes being left on the beach here we'd all assume
48:59she swam in a straight line now you had no idea where the currents would take kira's body
49:06so you had to test it first didn't you you went and found this
49:14and you threw it into the sea to observe which route it took which was conveniently in a north
49:19westerly direction from your bungalow directly to where kira began her nightly swim and that's
49:24when your plan finally came together kira's body was found still at sea not long after she drowned
49:32but this ball left overnight ended up washing up ashore and that was your undoing but why would he do
49:40this
49:40to her because he didn't want kira to help his wife remember well remember what what he did
49:54i remember
49:55i remember all of it
50:02all the horror of it
50:05you rushing in and telling me someone had hurt our little girl
50:11and i remember the ambulance and the police and the shock and the pain
50:20and i remember you coming in
50:25and holding me and tears shaking
50:30but it was heartbroken
50:35and i remember in that moment
50:39the smell of alcohol on your breath
50:46and i remember coming back inside
50:51and seeing you
50:58i checked the original case file mr hartnell
51:02and the phone call to the police in which the hit and run driver was described as female
51:08came from an anonymous caller
51:11that was you wasn't it trying to direct suspicion away from yourself
51:23i would have lost everything
51:33alistair hartnell
51:35i'm arresting you on suspicion of the murder of kira mayhew
51:38you don't have to say anything but it may harm your defense if you do not mention when questioned
51:43something you later rely on in court
51:58i never want to see you ever again
52:16well well well good evening to you both good evening

52:52saying i agree with every single word you've written

53:16own making so i will be the one to fix it and how will you do that as of tomorrow
53:23i will be commencing
53:25an initiative with my team and with a little help from the islands mayor an initiative to strengthen

54:00well
54:00i
54:00well
54:29well
54:32Sorry, mate. That's my hat.
54:54Hey, Sol.
54:57Look, I just got home and I saw you brought all my stuff back.
55:01Oh, you know, work the old Solomon Clark magic.
55:06Yeah, well, I just wanted to say thank you.
55:08Did you have to give Mertle their money back?
55:10I mean, you're not in debt still, are you?
55:12Ah, don't worry yourself.
55:14Anyway, man, got to get the boat back to Antiga.
55:17Got some business over there that needs attending to.
55:20Of course you have.
55:21I mean, there's always something going on in Solomonland, right?
55:25You said it.
55:32Look, what about us now?
55:35I mean, what do we do next?
55:39I don't know, man.
55:41Like you said, I am troubled.
55:43A detective doesn't need that in his life.
55:45So, I didn't mean...
55:47Maybe I shouldn't have said, Dan...
55:50No disrespect to you, bro, but...
55:53Ain't much good to me having a police officer around.
55:57Got a reputation to keep.
55:58Yeah, yeah, no, I...
56:00Tell me I understand.
56:03Look, man.
56:05We tried this and...
56:08Maybe it just wasn't meant to be here, no?
56:11Look after yourself, brother.
56:12Yeah, you do.
56:14Look, Solomon, I...
56:41Maybe I'm gonna help...
56:44You do.
56:57Hello, neighbor. Quiet morning.
57:00Was.
57:01Henry Ashby moved to St. Marie ten years ago.
57:04Henry was definitely mixed up in something murky.
57:06The victim's copy of this book was missing from his bookshelf.
57:09So, where is it?
57:10I need to reassure you that this island still matters.
57:16Why did the detective not bother showing up?
57:18Why was your moped seen outside the victim's villa up in the hills?
57:22Did you ever catch them, Inspector? I'd sleep much better knowing you did.
57:25It wasn't me!
57:54And Tony Taylor, let me see you.
57:57How was your moped seen outside the inn?
57:57You
