00:01Welcome to the final episode of Small Town Scandal. I'm Toby Buchanan.
00:07I'm back at Dorleo Police Station following a fresh lead.
00:11As of last episode I discovered that the automated lawnmowers buzzing around Uncle Mitch's death scene have cameras.
00:17Which means they may have filmed the killer.
00:20Right now all we've got is the McKeith brothers swearing
00:23It was a demon.
00:24Which is not ideal.
00:25My dad is still suspect number one and facing a life sentence.
00:29And my old school buddy, local cop Matt McKenzie's ego is out of control after capturing serial killer Mrs Mott.
00:36And now he's gunning for a new trophy, my dad.
00:39Also the town's annual Philly Festival in Frocks in the Field is about to kick off.
00:43Which means chaos and mum stressed.
00:46So there's murder, lawnmowers, small town egos and a potentially award winning podcast all on the line.
00:52Actually scratch that.
00:53Note to self, don't put that part in.
01:03I had a plan which required me getting into the bowels of the Tohoiho Police Station.
01:14Unfortunately the place was crawling with cops.
01:17But fortunately I've discovered that this place isn't overly security conscious.
01:22And I have a naturally gymnastic ability which will help me sneak past the blue uniform brigade and infiltrate the
01:29heart of the beast.
01:39Okay, so it turns out that automated mowers have an inbuilt camera in them.
01:42I just need to find one.
01:49I need to know that this is a profit in it.
01:51I don't need to make a plan!
01:51I don't need to go with too much.
01:53I don't need to use that.
02:05Oh no!
02:06Oh no!
02:07Oh no!
02:08Oh no!
02:08No!
02:09Oh no!
02:09What?
02:09Oh no!
02:10Oh no!
02:12Oh no!
02:38So, I don't even know how to get to the camera, let alone see what's on it.
02:53Oh, hello. Hey, I'm actually really glad to bump into you.
02:57Oh no, something happened to Dad.
02:58Oh, I don't know. No, no, no, I just need your opinion on something to do with the trial.
03:03These ones? Or these ones?
03:06Um, I don't know.
03:07Which one of these is? Oh, I'm innocent more. These?
03:11All these ones?
03:13Um, I guess the rainbow leaf.
03:15Oh, really?
03:16Yeah.
03:16I really thought you would have gone for the purple fern.
03:18I'm not sure it matters too much, Misty.
03:21I beg your pardon?
03:22Well, whatever earrings you wear, it won't make a difference.
03:24We all know where this case is headed.
03:26Mind your business, Matt McKenzie.
03:28Anyway, I'll see you guys. Sorry, scusey.
03:30See ya.
03:30See ya.
03:30See ya.
03:32What's up at your top there, Tubbs?
03:33Ah, nothing.
03:34See ya.
03:34Bye.
03:35Tubbs!
03:35Tubbs!
03:36Tubbs!
03:38Tubbs!
03:40What are you going for?
03:42Police!
03:44All units!
03:45I'm in proceed!
03:47Tubbs!
03:48Back!
03:52Back!
03:53Back!
03:53Back!
03:54Back!
03:55Back!
04:05Back!
04:08Back!
04:09Back!
04:10Back!
04:10Back!
04:12Back!
04:14Back!
04:15Back!
04:15Back!
04:15Oh!
04:16Whoa, whoa, whoa!
04:17What are you doing?
04:18Bruce, you have to help me.
04:19The footage on this, we need to see it immediately!
04:21With this?
04:22Yes!
04:23Why didn't you tell me there are in-built cameras in there?
04:26I thought that was obvious!
04:27The footage on that one is the last piece in this crazy puzzle!
04:30There is no point.
04:32Camera, send the footage to Black Box.
04:35Black Box?
04:36It's the whole computer!
04:37It's not in there!
04:39Oh, God!
04:40Oh, God!
04:42Okay, I'm back at the HyperMega store, and I'm following another crazy twist where it turns
04:47out that in order to see the footage on the mowers, I need to go to Uncle Mitch's mansion
04:51and look on the home computer!
04:54Wait!
04:55Wait!
04:55What?
04:57Gotcha, Tubbs!
04:58Yeah?
04:59You're under arrest for stealing police evidence!
05:01Okay, let me explain!
05:02No, no, no!
05:03Tubbs!
05:03Give up, mate!
05:04It's already over!
05:06Ah!
05:08Oh, shit!
05:10Ah!
05:11Ah!
05:11Ah!
05:12Ah!
05:13Ah!
05:13Oh!
05:14You have the right to remain silent!
05:16Okay, just give me-
05:16Shush it!
05:17Tubbs!
05:18Do not ruin this for me!
05:19Okay, sorry.
05:20Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
05:26Get in there.
05:27Ah!
05:37Once a criminal, always a criminal, eh, Toby?
05:41What are you on about?
05:41I bought this big jar of lollipops, with my own money, as rewards for my class.
05:48And young Toby here decided to have them all for himself.
05:51I was in your class 25 years ago.
05:54Can we let it go, please?
05:55I'm just pointing out, once a criminal, always a criminal.
05:58I'm a petty criminal at best, and you're the one that killed 39 people.
06:02Oh.
06:04Fair call.
06:09It's been good to see you, Toby.
06:12Would have been better under better circumstances.
06:15Yeah.
06:17Yeah, it has been nice seeing you, Dad.
06:19I just wanted to apologise for getting off to a bad start.
06:27What do you mean?
06:29Well, it can't help that I was such a crappy parent.
06:32I'm sorry, son.
06:34Right, I am.
06:39It's okay, Dad, I know you tried.
06:42I was at the pub most of the time.
06:45You'd defend for yourself.
06:47But you're a fighter.
06:49You hang in there.
06:50Not me.
06:51I just give up when the going gets rough.
06:55You're a scrapper.
06:59As if...
07:00They are, son.
07:03You're a real scrapper.
07:04Thanks.
07:06And there's something else I've got to tell you.
07:09What?
07:12What the hell, son?
07:14What the hell, son?
07:16You took your bloody time!
07:19Dad!
07:28What are you doing?
07:30You're going to be in so much trouble.
07:39Good luck, you pricks.
08:09What the hell are they all doing here?
08:11It's the Philly Festival.
08:12I'm dead.
08:12Hey!
08:13You got him!
08:14You get back here!
08:15Oh, shit!
08:16I'm right, you got them!
08:18You got me!
08:22I got you for your own!
08:24I got you for your own!
08:25Stop!
08:26Get out of it, you perks!
08:30Get out of it, you perks!
08:31Help me!
08:32Help me!
08:34Help me!
08:36Help me!
08:40Shit!
08:41Sorry.
08:46Shit!
08:48Fuck.
08:49Fuck.
08:58Fuck.
09:01Fuck.
09:03Fuck.
09:03Fuck.
09:04Fuck.
09:04Fuck.
09:04Fuck.
09:04Fuck.
09:04Cheers, Toast.
09:05We could have been killed out there.
09:06Okay.
09:07We just need to get to Uncle Mitch's.
09:08If we can get a car, hopefully we can sneak out of town.
09:11No.
09:11No way.
09:12I'm totally outnumbered.
09:15Well, these are your mum's frocks.
09:18Oh, yes, for Fox in the Field.
09:20She's doing a fashion show.
09:21She hasn't lost a touch, has she?
09:23Oh, what a talent.
09:25Look at all this.
09:27Oh.
09:29Oh, she's an extraordinary woman.
09:31Dad, we don't have time for this, Dad.
09:33We've got to get you out of here.
09:34It's no use, son.
09:36We're as good as dog tagging.
09:37Could you be positive for one second, Dad?
09:40Could you try that, please?
09:42I'm trying to save you from a life sentence.
09:45Sorry.
09:49I know my edit.
09:50Shut up.
09:51Fair enough.
09:52No, I mean shut up.
09:53I've got an idea.
09:59Don't follow me.
10:03Can I ride the horse?
10:04Piss off.
10:05Please!
10:06I said piss off, kid.
10:08This way, Dad.
10:10This way, Dad.
10:11This way, Dad.
10:12Three.
10:13Anna, yes.
10:14No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
10:15This is the Phillies.
10:16The stallions are over there, please.
10:18Over there.
10:18Over there.
10:19Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
10:21Katie, it's me.
10:23Toby?
10:24What are you doing here?
10:25The police are looking for you everywhere.
10:26You're in so much trouble.
10:28Can I borrow your car, please?
10:30What?
10:30No, why?
10:31Just give us your keys, Katie.
10:33We need the keys.
10:34If you don't give us your keys,
10:35I'm going to tell Matt that you touched my leg in the car the other day.
10:39Good.
10:40And a yes.
10:41And a go.
10:42And a dance.
10:43And a dance.
10:43And a...
10:44He would never believe you anyway, so you shouldn't.
10:46Do you want to try me?
10:52Good.
10:52Good.
10:53Smiling.
10:53Always smiling.
10:54Always going.
10:55And a going.
10:56Okay?
10:58Liz, that's got a bit of a sticky ignition, okay?
11:00So when you turn it on, forward, right, just before you feel kind of hits the...
11:05You have to hold it, just...
11:06I'll take it.
11:07I'll take you, okay?
11:09I'll drive you to where you need to go.
11:11My car's over there.
11:12Alright?
11:12Alright?
11:13Good.
11:13Keep going, keep going.
11:14Can you drill them?
11:15Keep going.
11:17Smile!
11:18Smile!
11:19Bloody hot ping a horse's ass.
11:21Don't dip it down, they'll see you!
11:30Mackenzie!
11:31Go down, run, run, run, run!
11:34Oh!
11:35I've got you now, you get on!
11:37Where are you at?
11:38Run!
11:38Oh, jeez.
11:43God!
11:43I don't want to go to prison!
11:45Oh, my God!
11:47You're not going to go to prison.
11:48We could always tell them we kidnapped you by force.
11:51Oh, yes, Bruce.
11:52That's a really good idea.
11:53Thank you so much.
11:54You'll be great.
11:55Can this thing go any faster, Katie?
11:57Uh, actually, hold on.
11:59I think there is actually some button.
12:01I have always wanted a depressor, which is crazy,
12:03because I feel like now's the kind of...
12:06Is that faster?
12:07No, I don't think it's going faster.
12:08Okay, this is it then.
12:10Okay, what's the plan, boys?
12:11What's going on?
12:12Okay, I'm hoping against hope is that the automated lawnmowers
12:15that mowed up Uncle Mitch filmed whoever it was that killed him.
12:18And that that footage is on the home computer in the home office.
12:21Oh, my God.
12:22What?
12:22That is so clever.
12:24That is so...
12:24I never even thought of that, but it makes perfect sense.
12:28Oh, Toby.
12:29You're actually so smart.
12:32Oh, my God.
12:33And you're really smart too, Katie.
12:35Yeah.
12:37I also find you're really beautiful.
12:39Toby.
12:40I mean...
12:42Look, I, uh...
12:45You're a sweetheart, okay?
12:49And I know how you've always felt about me.
12:54But you just, you've got to get over this now, okay?
12:57You've got work to do.
12:59This is a big moment.
13:00This is your time.
13:02This is your time to shine.
13:03Right now.
13:04Katie!
13:04Isn't that the mansion there?
13:06Oh, yes, yes.
13:11Yeah!
13:19Oh, no!
13:21Oh, sorry.
13:22Okay.
13:24Come on, Bruce.
13:25Come on!
13:26Oh, go!
13:26Jesus, buddy, come on!
13:36Okay.
13:36Good.
13:40Yeah?
13:40Good.
13:41Okay.
13:42Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
13:43Um, okay.
13:45Okay.
13:46See ya.
13:47Fuck it.
13:48Oh, no, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry,
13:50shh, shh, shh, shh!
13:53Get out of here, bro.
13:55Yes, yes, yes, yes.
13:57Okay, I got it.
13:59Stop!
13:59Whatever it is you're doing!
14:01On your knees!
14:02Immediately!
14:03All of you!
14:03Now!
14:04Babe, babe, babe, we're just gonna watch a video, okay?
14:05Of Mitch's death!
14:06Babe, um, please.
14:08Please, baby.
14:09Baby, my love.
14:10My baby love.
14:12I am on the edge.
14:13It's important, okay?
14:14You've gotta see this!
14:17Babe!
14:21Everything hinged on this.
14:22If my investigation was wrong, Dad got life, and I might be joining him.
14:27Okay, so here, you everyone's here, you comfy?
14:29Yeah.
14:30Ready?
14:30Yeah.
14:35It's the bloody McKeith brothers.
14:36It was the McKeith brothers.
14:38Well, we'll be here soon to be, dog bugger.
14:42That's all.
14:46Come on.
14:48Yes!
14:49Wait, she's gonna be made into pet food.
14:54Jesus!
14:55I didn't see all that in the morning.
14:57Why isn't he moving?
14:57He's probably stunned.
15:02Oh!
15:04Oh!
15:04She's picked up the camera!
15:06Oh!
15:08Oh!
15:09Oh!
15:12Oh!
15:13Oh!
15:23Oh!
15:24Oh!
15:25Oh!
15:25Oh!
15:25Oh!
15:26Oh!
15:27Oh!
15:29Oh!
15:30Oh, hang on, who's that?
15:37This must be where I'm making an appointment!
15:40Oh yeah, that's me!
15:42Bruce!
15:43Oh!
15:44Oh!
15:45Oh!
15:48Oh!
15:57okay yeah it all makes sense maddie hang on you you knew about that so there i am
16:03and then i'm like what and then i go so then if you can which is very clear that i
16:08just go straight
16:17wow wee would you look at that i'd done it i managed to prove dad's innocence
16:24i'd finally succeeded and closed the case but the feeling was bittersweet
16:30petal my childhood horse the only real friend i'd ever known was a killer
16:37what we uncovered here today is going to take our small town a long time to get over probably days
16:46but before that i had some gloating to do or maybe just some emotional management
16:54i guess no one would have suspected a horse hey what are you all right mate yes fine i just
17:03couldn't hear you i was just saying i guess no one would have suspected the horse but i guess now
17:10proofs that we were right about dad being innocent hey so so so i told you so
17:21not you know but you still managed to find out who mrs moth was and catch her which is you
17:27know
17:28amazing until she got away but still
17:33so
17:33shut up tubs
17:39let's go home
18:03And so, our small town scandal came to a close.
18:07Although the dust had begun to settle on our wild scandal, I couldn't stop worrying
18:12about Petal's future.
18:14So I stole her away from Uncle Mitch's and anonymously released her on an ethical farm
18:19for abused animals and didn't tell anyone about it.
18:22And now she's pregnant to a hot stallion.
18:25Sue's frock designs, aka Mum's dresses, were shown in the background of the news footage
18:30of Mrs Moth's escape, and her orders have gone up tenfold.
18:34Mum says Cousin Carol will be taking my room permanently, so they can fulfil all the orders.
18:41Meanwhile, I'm proud to say I'm self-producing this podcast, and really want to do a shout
18:46out to the nearly ten people who have already listened, liked and subscribed.
18:52Well, that's all from me and our small town of Tohoiho.
18:56Until next time, goodbye.
19:02Goes on a bit, doesn't it?
19:05But overall, not bad hopes.
19:10And hopefully, one of your listeners can offer you a proper job one day and then you can
19:15finally move out.
19:16What?
19:16But yes, I...
19:20You've done well.
19:24Anyway, I suppose I should try and get some sleep.
19:27You should too.
19:28You look exhausted.
19:30Stay away from that bridge.
19:33Goodnight.
19:36So with the podcast in the can, I was at a bit of a loss at what to do next.
19:41Sure, I enjoyed the medium of podcastery, but you needed a good story to tell, and I was
19:46clean out of those.
19:47So I was just happy to lie back and relax.
19:50Well, until tomorrow morning at least.
19:52When I'd have to find some way of making cash so I could move out of home again.
20:10Hello, Subrakanan here.
20:16Who's been murdered?
20:19And they've no idea who did it?
20:23That sounds positively gruesome.
20:26Oh, what a scandal.
