KurzfilmeTranskript
00:00Commissioner! Thanks for coming!
00:03Kathre, what a picture! Like a young Grace Kelly!
00:08You do exaggerate, Mr. Boussaint.
00:10Merely appreciative of beauty when I see it.
00:13I've been meaning to thank you. Without your admirable journalism,
00:18a community initiative wouldn't have happened.
00:22Thanks, Peters.
00:24For Kentz, our guest of honor.
00:29Simply stunning, like a young Grace Kelly.
00:31Oh!
00:34It all looks wonderful, Anton.
00:36Only what you deserve for your dedicated service to this island.
00:41One last favor, s'il vous plaît.
00:43I want to change my final column to this one.
00:46It's already gone to press, I'm afraid.
00:48Oh, don't be afraid. Just make it happen.
00:51Oh, come on, Bernie.
00:55Do 24 years of marriage count for nothing?
00:59Mm-hmm.
01:11After 30 years solving this island's problems,
01:15our beloved Agony aunt is retiring.
01:19Oh.
01:19And so, please put your hands together to show your gratitude for this wonderful woman.
01:26Oh, dear!
01:28You don't know what it is! You don't know what it is!
01:30You don't know what it is! You don't know what it is!
01:31You have to be.
01:31Thank you to all of you, my esteemed readers,
01:35for entrusting me with this precious task for so many years.
01:41But now I'm looking forward to spending more time with my daughter, Esme.
01:54Let's see if, for the first time in his life, that embassy was true to his word.
02:18Good morning, Esme. How was the party?
02:21Good item. Me at Earth's. That's weird.
02:25Okay. Maman? Maman? Maman?
03:14We're done.
03:17Fifteen more minutes.
03:20Right.
03:21Are we going to talk about anything today?
03:31Um...
03:33No.
03:36No, thank you, but...
03:38No.
03:47Yes, Thomas.
03:50It's work.
03:57Oh.
03:59So I take it therapy's going well, then?
04:03Um...
04:04I mean, sitting in front of a total stranger, talking about feelings...
04:09It's just not for me, you know?
04:11But you were kidnapped by your own brothers or almost killed.
04:16Look, I'm here now, aren't I?
04:18The best thing for me to do is just forget it ever happened.
04:20It sounds healthy.
04:23It sounds healthy.
04:23Look, I'm English.
04:24Yeah?
04:25That's what we do.
04:30The deceased is Hortense Leroux.
04:33She writes an agony aunt column for the local paper.
04:36Agony aunt?
04:37That's a blast from the past.
04:40Good morning, boss.
04:42Sarge.
04:43Paramedics say Madame Leroux was poisoned.
04:45Who found her?
04:46Her daughter Esme, who had plans to go on a walk with her mother, and the housekeeper,
04:51Kim Woods, who was just starting her shift.
04:54This wee.
04:56So, the victim.
04:58She has a few tiny red spots on her finger, which leads me to believe that the poison came
05:06from something she touched.
05:09So, she sat down for breakfast, boiled egg and toast, read her column where someone writes
05:19in about a friend's betrayal, and dear Hortense replies with avoiding revenge.
05:27Let sleeping dogs lie.
05:29Sir, she was retiring.
05:31This would be her last column?
05:33Tragic coincidence?
05:35Tragic, certainly.
05:37Coincidence, not so much.
05:40Does this look discoloured to you?
05:47You think the poison is on the paper?
05:49Possibly.
05:50Where did this come from?
05:51We'll check with the housekeeper.
06:02Egg and soldiers.
06:04In the breakfast hall of fame.
06:06That's right up there.
06:07Dipping a piece of buttered toast into a gooey yellow egg.
06:10Hey, but.
06:12You're fine, sir.
06:26This egg's harder than Vinnie Jones.
06:28Dipping a soldier into that would be impossible.
06:36Es ist nicht möglich.
06:37Sir, wenn man an den Detail spürt,
06:39dann denkt man,
06:40wir werden wieder zurück.
06:42Aber jetzt ist es,
06:44wie es das möglich sein könnte?
06:48Alles ist relevant, Officer Ravs.
07:02Und der Papel ist, jederzeit?
07:05Bei einem Boy called Clayton Powell.
07:08Kann ich ein bisschen holen, bitte?
07:10Esme!
07:13Es ist ein Terrible, Terrible News.
07:16Anton Bouzet,
07:17Editor of the San Marie News
07:19und Hortensi's ex-husband.
07:21D.I. Wilson.
07:22Ich habe viel über dich.
07:25So, was ist das?
07:26Wir arbeiten an die Theorie,
07:28dass Miss Lerue was poisoned?
07:30Was?
07:31Deliberately?
07:32Wie kann jemand das tun?
07:35Sie war wirklich adored.
07:37So, wie hat sie sie gesehen,
07:39hat sie gesehen,
07:39hat sie gesehen?
07:40Hat sie gesehen?
07:40Hat sie verstanden?
07:41Well, sie hat mixed feelings
07:42über retiring, natürlich.
07:45Es war etwas,
07:47bei der Party.
07:48Ich möchte meine letzte Malen
07:50zu dieser.
07:52Do you know warum?
07:53Nein.
07:54Wir sehen uns die originalen Lettern.
07:56Es wird in der Studie.
07:57Okay, so, um,
07:59talk me through her morning routine,
08:01please.
08:01Well, she was up with the lark,
08:03made breakfast.
08:05Boiled egg and soldiers,
08:06yeah?
08:07Clayton would deliver the paper,
08:08then she would like to read her column
08:10over breakfast.
08:12And the egg,
08:13how long did she cook it for?
08:15Oh,
08:16I'm not sure.
08:18Do you know, love?
08:19Dreaming it, Cecil?
08:21She liked it to be perfect.
08:23Yeah.
08:24That's who she was.
08:25Deep breaths, darling,
08:26deep breaths.
08:28Here you are, Esme.
08:29Look here, Inspector.
08:31Why the focus on eggs?
08:33Can I suggest that you concentrate on what is actually important?
08:37Finding the person who did this.
08:39I'm merely trying to establish the facts, Mr. Bousset.
08:42I mean, as a journalist,
08:43it surprises me you don't appreciate that.
08:50I'm sorry, the little man doesn't like strangers.
08:53sensible chap.
09:01She really liked purple.
09:10So what's with the egg thing?
09:13Look, Hortense was the sort of woman who liked everything just so, right?
09:18Even down to how she set out her breakfast.
09:21People are funny, aren't they?
09:23Yes.
09:24People are.
09:25It's still bothering me why the egg was hard boiled.
09:29Maybe she got distracted.
09:31Overcooked it.
09:32She had an egg timer which she clearly used.
09:35And even if she had overcooked it, she could have made another one.
09:40Now you say it, it is a little odd.
09:44You know, I used to think these letters were fake.
09:46But people actually write in with their problems.
09:50And according to the housekeeper, she replied to every single one.
09:54Felt like it was her duty.
09:58Whoa!
10:02Seems she kept every single letter as well.
10:05This is the letter she wanted to publish last minute.
10:08Dear Hortense, I've suffered a great betrayal by a friend.
10:13Well, that's different.
10:14What is?
10:15Well, all these other letters are signed anonymously.
10:18But this one is signed by Sophie Martin.
10:22So Sophie Martin wanted her friend to know she'd written this letter.
10:27Why?
10:28To send a message?
10:30Or a warning.
10:35Yes, Vector.
10:38Thank you.
10:40Okay, so that's Clayton and here's the tea.
10:44He picked up the papers from Mr Purdy's newsagent at 7am.
10:48There are various papers in the stack, the St. Marie News only being one of them.
10:53He then cycled straight here, delivered the newspaper to Madame LaRue at 7.15am.
11:00And did he actually see her pick it up?
11:02He did, just like always.
11:05And we know she came inside and sat at the dinner table to read the paper.
11:09Do we know how many St. Marie News were in his stack?
11:12He said six.
11:13And none of the other people who get the paper are ill.
11:17But if so, assuming it was a targeted attack, how did he get the one poisoned newspaper to Hortense?
11:24Maybe they intercepted Clayton on the way knowing he'd be coming to Madame LaRue's house first.
11:30Clayton swears he did not meet anyone en route.
11:33The only thing of note, his bike had a bust up with a pats hole and all his papers fell
11:38out his back.
11:39But even if the killer had poisoned the first paper in the stack, they're all jumbled up now, right?
11:46Which means they couldn't guarantee that the poisoned paper would get to Madame LaRue.
11:53A one in six chance.
11:56Don't like the sound of those odds, do you?
12:07Hortense LaRue, St. Marie's favourite agony aunt, poisoned, apparently, by her own column.
12:13So, who would want to murder her?
12:16All that meddling in people's lives would make you some enemies.
12:19I read that she moved from Paris to St. Marie 30 years ago with her baby daughter, Esme.
12:26Anton Bassett, Esme's stepfather.
12:30They met in 1996 when she started her column at the St. Marie News.
12:35Then there's this.
12:37Now, why would Hortense be so keen to publish it?
12:40It was posted on St. Marie, so likely the author lives here.
12:44So, our priority, find Sophie Martin.
12:52Copy that, sir.
12:53There were letters at the house. Looks like she kept them all.
12:57Might be worth checking those too?
12:59Yes, where would you put that on the priority list?
13:02I'm thinking maybe three or four.
13:06We've got it, Sarge, as soon as we check through the victim's form.
13:10Can't help feeling Sophie is key to all of this.
13:13Making progress already?
13:15Oh, Commissioner, well, you know, it's early days.
13:19Madame LaRue was highly regarded.
13:22Only last night, Catherine and I attended her retirement party.
13:26As such, the island will be watching our investigation keenly.
13:31Ah. Excellent.
13:33I'm assuming you've met Anton Bousset.
13:37We've had the pleasure.
13:38He won't miss an opportunity to put pressure on us.
13:43Or rather, me.
13:45Let me know when you're ready to talk.
13:49So, let's keep things as professional as we can.
13:53Of course.
13:55D.I. Wilson.
13:56A word.
14:04How are the counselling sessions going?
14:07Oh, erm...
14:09Extremely useful.
14:10Yeah, we're really getting to the...
14:12the heart of the matter.
14:14Is that so?
14:16What I've heard is directly to the contrary.
14:20You haven't said a word.
14:22I thought that was confidential.
14:25Inspector, take it seriously.
14:28Look, I'm just not into the whole going over the past stuff.
14:33The effects of trauma don't just magically go away.
14:37You've got to work through it.
14:40I know.
14:41Because I did.
14:46You had therapy.
14:48And like you, I had dogs.
14:51Men of my age, we tend to crack on with things too.
14:57Give in to it, Inspector.
15:00You may be surprised.
15:03Okay.
15:05But I assure you, I am completely, totally, 100% fine.
15:23We've got a situation.
15:25Oh!
15:28Solomon.
15:31Shut up!
15:51Working overtime, mate.
15:53Any leads?
16:05What if...
16:10You're the only two friends.
16:13Who?
16:13I mean...
16:18Who?
16:20Who?
16:22Who?
16:23Who?
16:23Who?
16:24Who?
16:24Who?
16:24.
16:35Morgen, campers. Gather round.
16:38I have a break-through.
16:44Right, so.
16:46This stamp was conveniently hidden beneath this St. Marie stamp.
16:50The original stamp is from France.
16:55Hmm. So what does that mean?
16:56That it was posted from somewhere else first?
16:59Maybe Sophie meant to post it from somewhere else, but didn't for some reason.
17:02Then brought it to St. Marie to post. Why? Who knows?
17:05My stamp man in Kentish Town is on the case, and he's going to...
17:08And three.
17:11You all right, sir?
17:13Yeah, why?
17:14You seem a little energetic.
17:16Oh, that's the coffee. I've had three already. That's my fourth.
17:22Bad night?
17:23Uh, no. I was just up, looking into this.
17:28Any update on Sophie's whereabouts?
17:30None on the island, and no mention in the victim's contacts either.
17:34Post-mortem's in.
17:36Cortens was poisoned, as we thought. Contact poison.
17:41Cone snail venom, in fact.
17:44Cone snail? That's new.
17:45Yeah, I mean, they live in the shallow waters around here.
17:48I mean, you're warned about them as a kid.
17:50If it's in a cone, leave it alone.
17:52The toxin paralyzes the victim first, then they die a painful death.
17:59Nice.
18:00So, whoever did this wanted Hortense to suffer.
18:04It says here that the poison was only on page 35 of the newspaper.
18:09Which means we're looking at one hell of a gambler.
18:11Somehow poison one page in one paper of a pack of six.
18:15Then pray to the gods of vengeance that that paper is delivered to its victim.
18:20Risky as anything.
18:21It's more than risky. It's almost impossible.
18:24Did Hortense touch anything else?
18:25Lab's still testing. They'll get back to us tomorrow.
18:28In the meantime, Officer Rose and I have been working on something.
18:31Yes, the daughter. Esme, eh?
18:34I mean, totally bankrolled by her mummy.
18:36She's never had a job.
18:38She just gets her big juicy allowance every month and, I mean, she's living her life.
18:42Well, it seems Esme might have disagreed.
18:45She'd applied for a job at a publisher's inn Barbados.
18:48Then, plot twist, we find emails from Hortense to the managing director saying Esme was not fit to work
18:58and that she would sue them if her daughter had a breakdown.
19:02They took back the job offer pretty quickly after that.
19:05So, mummy blew her chances of a promising career.
19:17Must have been a blow.
19:19She was right. I... I wouldn't have coped.
19:22Real life and me somehow never work, so...
19:25What made you apply for the job then?
19:27Anton encouraged me. He helps me with all sorts of things.
19:32Can't help noticing you're wearing the same clothes as yesterday.
19:36Late night, was it?
19:37My mum just died. I'm allowed to grieve.
19:41Of course you are.
19:44Look, what do you want from me?
19:45You're 31, never been anywhere, everything you own, all paid for by your mother.
19:50It's unusual. Some might say a little controlling.
19:54She wasn't. She loved me.
19:57People get away with a lot under that label.
20:01Papillon. Papillon. Come away from there.
20:05Papillon.
20:07Needs to be careful of those cone snails.
20:10I hear they're deadly.
20:11My mum was always paranoid he'd get stoned.
20:14Like to keep him close.
20:16Bit like you then.
20:17Please, not least.
20:18A bright new future.
20:19Suddenly, snatched. No.
20:21Stolen away by your meddling mother.
20:23That'd have made me angry.
20:24But that made you angry, DS Thomas.
20:25Definitely.
20:26Maybe the anger got too much.
20:27Maybe one day you just snapped.
20:29No.
20:30That's not true.
20:36We'll be in touch.
20:42Never underestimate the quiet ones.
20:49Alright, mate.
20:50What you got?
20:52For real?
21:01Curious and curious, as they say.
21:04Le Cloche de Saint-Azure, pardon my accent, was printed in Paris 30 years ago.
21:09Does that mean that this letter is also 30 years old?
21:13We can only assume so.
21:14But if that's the case, why would Sophie Martin wait to send us now?
21:19Maybe she knew Hortense's retiring and this was her last chance?
21:23Well, look for any Sophie Martin's who lived in Paris 30 years ago.
21:26Yeah, keep me posted.
21:27Any news from the lad?
21:29No poison found on anything else she could have touched.
21:32So this newspaper was definitely the murder weapon?
21:34It looks like it.
21:36Something interesting, though.
21:38No fingerprints found on Hortense's glasses, wiped clean.
21:42Hmm.
21:43What would that be?
21:46Right.
21:47Until we know who Sophie Martin is, let's look for anyone with a motive, yeah?
21:50I found something on the victim's phone.
21:52In the trash.
21:54And like my uncle, little Terrence always says,
21:56one man's trash is another man's treasure.
21:59Yes, we know. Get on with it, Officer Rose.
22:01Sir!
22:01Sorry.
22:04Go on.
22:05Some anonymous text going back three weeks ago.
22:08You'll get what's coming to you.
22:10You don't deserve to live.
22:12And then just before our retirement party,
22:14wear the amethyst earrings.
22:16They bring out your eyes.
22:18Someone was out for blood.
22:20But who?
22:21A reader with a grudge, maybe?
22:23Maybe.
22:24Clearly whoever it is was watching the house the other night
22:26while Hortense was getting ready for a big bash.
22:29First thing tomorrow, talk to the neighbours.
22:32Maybe they saw someone hanging around.
22:34Mm-hmm.
22:34Cool, cool.
23:11You want to give up, don't you?
23:13I'm here when you're ready.
23:16Look, why don't you just ask me something?
23:20Just...
23:21ask me a question.
23:23Please.
23:25What are your feelings about your brother?
23:29Okay.
23:33Something akin to anger, I'd say.
23:38You know, every time I'm near that guy,
23:41something happens it shouldn't.
23:43And sadness.
23:45In fact, I'd say mainly sadness.
23:49I wanted it to work.
23:50Yeah, believe me.
23:51I wanted us to work.
23:56But you know what?
24:00We just don't.
24:01I do not trust that guy.
24:04And if you can't trust family, then who can you trust?
24:07Would it be more helpful to talk to him about what happened?
24:11I don't know where I'd even start.
24:14Sometimes, if talking's difficult, writing it down can help.
24:19Write him a letter.
24:24Yeah, writing him a letter.
24:26Yeah, could work.
24:32A letter.
24:33It'd be a waste of time.
24:35Why don't you tell him what kind of brother you wanted?
24:39Right.
24:40Because it's a fantasy.
24:42He can't be that brother.
24:46So I need to just accept it and move on.
24:51And, sir, how will you do that unless you're honest with him?
24:54And even more so, with yourself?
24:58Catherine, you were at Hortense's party.
25:02Yeah.
25:02Did you know her well?
25:04Not really.
25:05And the family? Esme.
25:08Anton Busset.
25:09Oh, Anton.
25:12Men like him.
25:13Hungry lions.
25:15Looking at you like your tasty steak at a buffet.
25:18Oh, have you two got history?
25:21He'd like that.
25:23Do you want another drink?
25:25Oh, no thank you.
25:27I think I'll have an early night.
25:29Perhaps you should too, sir.
25:31Why's that?
25:33Seeing that you're having trouble sleeping.
25:35Another cold one for me, please, Catherine.
25:54I'll speak to him, and you take the house over there.
25:57Then we'll get to those letters, sound good?
25:59Cool.
26:00See you later, alligator.
26:18Oh, come on, come on, come on.
26:28What are you doing?
26:29Huh?
26:29Nothing.
26:30What's behind your back?
26:31Hi, cupboard.
26:32Don't lie to me, there's a mirror right behind you.
26:37I just promise you won't laugh, alright?
26:39I promise.
26:41Dear Hortense, there's this girl I like.
26:44Like, if she were a chicken wing, she'd be extra hot.
26:47All summer we've chilled, but now she's gone quiet.
26:50I'm confused.
26:51She keeps watching my stories.
26:53Once she commented with a tomato emoji, what does that mean?
26:58I just want to know where I stand.
27:01You're Sebastian Rose.
27:05You know this is supposed to be a meaningless.
27:07I know that, no.
27:08Well, did Hortense write back?
27:09She did.
27:10She said something about allowing space for roots to grow or something.
27:15And happy?
27:17No.
27:18Cause she might be waiting for you, you know.
27:20That tomato emoji couldn't mean this girl's interested.
27:24You can't sit back, you've got to lean in.
27:26Yeah, it may be alright.
27:29The neighbor did tell me something pretty darn spicy.
27:32Yeah?
27:32Mm.
27:41What are you doing?
27:42A game of probability.
27:44A killer somehow gets a poisoned copy of the St. Marie News
27:48into Clayton's stack of newspapers,
27:50in which there happens to be five other copies of the St. Marie News.
27:53And from which she pulls one copy of the St. Marie News at random
27:57and delivers it to Hortense.
27:58A one in six charts.
28:00Morning.
28:02Our only clue is the egg.
28:05Why was it hard-boiled when Hortense likes it to be perfectly dippable?
28:10Sophie Martin is a very popular name.
28:13There were about a hundred Sophie Martins in Paris around that time.
28:18Look, for any connections with St. Marie, yeah, we have to find this woman.
28:22Will do.
28:27Sorry, it's not you, it's me.
28:30So the beers didn't help then?
28:33Surprisingly, no.
28:38And the letter?
28:41No, it's not a good idea.
28:43And that's an end of it.
28:44Okay?
28:48Sergeant Fletcher?
28:49We know who's been sending those messages.
28:52The neighbour was taking out the bins on the day of the party
28:55when he overheard an argument between Kim and Hortense.
29:00Did he hear what was said?
29:02Certainly did.
29:03It's you, isn't it?
29:05You have been sending these foul messages.
29:07Who else would know those things?
29:10And guess what?
29:11Hortense said she'd report her to the police the next day.
29:20I would never do anything so stupid.
29:23So why would Hortense think it was you?
29:25No clue.
29:26Those texts contain personal details that only someone close to her would know.
29:30So how long have you worked with Ms. LaRue?
29:32Oh, about six months or so.
29:34Was she a good boss?
29:35Madame was a diamond.
29:37It's a tragedy that she's gone.
29:38From what we've heard, she was more dragon than diamond.
29:42She certainly gave her daughter a hard time, didn't she?
29:44Well, she was a mite overprotective.
29:46But she cared, which is more than most.
29:48If she was like that with her own flesh and blood,
29:51it's not a stretch to imagine she'd do the same to you.
29:53Perhaps you decided to get your own back.
29:57Frighten her.
29:58But then she found you out, didn't she?
30:00You'd have faced criminal charges.
30:02You'd have lost everything.
30:04So I killed her?
30:07You've got this all wrong, officers.
30:09I've been around the block more times than I care for.
30:12Life's good here.
30:13Better than I hoped.
30:14Why would I risk losing that?
30:19You know what I said to her?
30:21Go ahead.
30:22Report me.
30:23Any decent investigation team would discover that I didn't send those texts.
30:27Convenient.
30:28What is?
30:29Well, she never got the chance, did she?
30:31And now here you are, free as a bird.
30:41She does have a point.
30:43I don't see what she gains from scaring Hortense.
30:46Well, who else?
30:49Well, I'm not overly thrilled about talking to Anton Busset.
30:52But if it was an angry reader who sent those texts, then you're gonna have to.
30:57Huh?
30:57Sir, you're sure you can keep cool?
31:03As a cucumber.
31:14So, Hall Tens Leroux didn't mention anything to you about these text messages?
31:19Ever since the divorce, we didn't have the same intimacy, you understand.
31:24Please, sit down.
31:25No, I'm all right standing, thank you.
31:27Any hate mail sent to the office?
31:29Complaints?
31:30People calling in to talk to her?
31:31You don't give up, do you?
31:34Oh, she deceptively heavy.
31:35Is this real gold?
31:36Can you put that down?
31:39I've already said I don't know who was sending these messages.
31:42And whoever she is won't be easily found.
31:45She?
31:46You just said whoever she is.
31:49I misspoke.
31:50They.
31:51Unusual for a man in your line of work to misspeak.
31:54Unusual for a man in your line of work to behave like an amateur.
31:58Excuse me?
31:59Let me be crystal clear.
32:00Stop wasting time asking obtuse questions.
32:04And go about doing your actual job.
32:08Let me be crystal clear.
32:09These obtuse questions are to find out who murdered your ex-wife.
32:13Sir?
32:13But the fact that you can't see that is because your head is so far up your own b-
32:19You can't see it.
32:20Well, that escalated.
32:21Look.
32:23I get it.
32:24Sir, what you went through was something no one should ever have to.
32:29But you can't keep pretending like-
32:31Pretending?
32:32Yes.
32:32Pretending like you're okay.
32:34I am-
32:34Your judgement is clearly off because you're not sleeping.
32:38And you're not sleeping because you have this thing with Solomon hanging over your head.
32:42What do you suggest?
32:42I don't know.
32:44Write the letter.
32:45Whatever.
32:46Get it off your chest.
32:47We have a murder to solve.
32:49Alright.
32:50Fine.
32:52I'll do it.
32:52Thank you.
32:58So what are we going to do about Mr. Busset?
33:01He obviously suspects who's sending those texts.
33:05Well, we need a tactical rethink.
33:12I have an idea.
33:23Who knew St. Marie was so high-tech?
33:26Found it in the back of the evidence store.
33:29Don't think it's been used for a while.
33:31You surprised me.
33:34It's from 1986.
33:36Can't beat quality.
33:37Thanks for doing this, Miss Baudet.
33:39A pleasure.
33:40I feel like one of Charlie's angels.
33:43Now, remember, you're there to find out who Anton thinks is behind the text messages.
33:48But don't go straight in for the kill.
33:50Act natural.
33:50Rain check is your code word if anything goes wrong.
33:54It won't.
33:55Trust me.
34:04We good?
34:10The golden goose has landed.
34:18Anton.
34:19How lovely to see you.
34:21Likewise.
34:22I was surprised when you called me.
34:25Pleasantly surprised, of course.
34:28Thought a drink would help take your mind off things.
34:31Much appreciated.
34:35That clown inspector was at the office today.
34:39poking his nose in where it's not wanted.
34:42Oh, like a dog without a bone.
34:45What is she after saying?
34:46Shh, wait.
34:47She knows what she's doing.
34:49Did the police have a theory today?
34:52Oh, they were bothered about what these nasty messages Hortense was receiving.
34:57Thank you.
34:59Thank you.
35:00You seem like a woman of good sense and judgment.
35:03I like to think so.
35:05This stays between us.
35:07A few years ago, Hortense told me something.
35:11Esme isn't her child.
35:13She took her from Paris when she was a baby.
35:15This is big.
35:16Sadly, the mother wasn't able to take care of her.
35:19A drug addict.
35:21I'm assuming she agreed to this.
35:24The way Hortense told it sounded like she was too out of it to notice.
35:28Hortense couldn't have children.
35:31But the authorities, did they not realize?
35:34She came here, forged her papers.
35:37She was Esme's mother in all but flesh and blood.
35:41And Esme has no idea?
35:43No.
35:43And I wanted to stay that way.
35:45This would break her.
35:47So, you suspect it's Esme's birth mother sending those messages?
35:54Who else?
35:58Enough doom and gloom.
36:00Would you do me the honor of a dance?
36:02Oh, well, um...
36:04It might be better.
36:05If I rain check.
36:07No reason.
36:09I doubt that very much.
36:10Come on.
36:11Sorry, Anton.
36:12I must rain check.
36:17We've lost her.
36:18Sergeant Fletcher.
36:23Why do you keep saying rain check?
36:37Sorry, Mathieu.
36:38I tried.
36:40This won't be the last to hear of me.
36:42I'll be calling your commissioner.
36:45Qu'est-ce qu'il s'est passé?
36:46I was saying the Coldwell.
36:47It was a technical hitch.
36:49I am so sorry.
36:52We can now assume that the friend's betrayal written about in Sophie Martin's letter is referring
36:58to Hortense stealing Sophie's baby 30 years ago.
37:02Which means Sophie is Esme's real mother and finally explains why Hortense was so desperate
37:08to publish the letter.
37:09She knew it was Sophie coming for her.
37:12Her response?
37:13Back off.
37:14Esme's mine.
37:15But why wait 30 years to send this?
37:18Don't know yet.
37:19But we will.
37:20And if Miss Martin is also behind the text messages as Anton suspects.
37:25You'll get what's coming to you.
37:27You don't deserve to live.
37:28She's here on this island with one hell of a motive.
37:32But where?
37:44I hope you don't mind Angel.
37:46Oh no.
37:47Not at all.
37:48Such a great loss.
37:50If you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here.
37:55You're kind.
38:16Solomon, I've been thinking about what to say for a while, but I haven't managed to
38:21find the right words.
38:23Across the street, across the way, it flows.
38:28Just like a mirror, it seems to show.
38:35Heaven, I'm afraid.
38:38Yes, I see beaucoup.
38:41Morning.
38:43Morning, sir.
38:44That was the Paris police.
38:46My thinking was, addicts are more likely to have criminal charges.
38:50And, there are three Sophie Martons on file.
38:55Two for possession, one for aggravated robbery.
38:57I've asked them to send over the records.
39:00Good work.
39:01What's that, sir?
39:03Oh, erm...
39:05This is it.
39:06My letter to Solomon.
39:08I've got it off my chest.
39:10Did it help?
39:13Er...
39:15Yeah, it did actually.
39:17You know what I realised?
39:19I want...
39:19No.
39:21I need my space from it.
39:26I'm so sorry, sir.
39:27No, no, no.
39:27It's all good.
39:28It's for the best.
39:29I just needed a little time to accept it.
39:32That's all.
39:35Where is everyone?
39:37Following a lead.
39:39If Sophie Martin was outside Madame Rourou's house that night,
39:42it's possible she followed her to the party.
39:45So, we went through the photos online.
39:49And, look at this one.
39:55Yes, she does look about the right age that Sophie will be.
39:58An uninvited guest.
40:01The waiter said she got into a green VW camper van
40:04and, luckily, Matty knows the one garage that fixes them.
40:11Yeah.
40:12Talk with the devil.
40:14We think we found Sophie.
40:15So, someone matching her description came into the garage last week.
40:19Goes by the name of Calypso.
40:21Said she normally parks up by Coral Beach.
40:24We need to get there pronto.
40:25You already here, sir?
40:27You got an eyeball.
40:32Are you hearing you good?
40:33You think that I'm that shy girl's mother?
40:37You're mad.
40:38I don't even know this woman you're talking about.
40:42Then why did you sneak into the party that night?
40:45Just passing.
40:47Felt thirsty.
40:48It's not a crime.
40:50No. The stalking is.
40:52See, our theory is you are Sophie Martin.
40:54You assumed a new identity to come to St. Marie and enact revenge on Hortense LaRue,
41:01starting with Phil's threatening text messages.
41:04Uh-uh.
41:05I just like to stay off-grid, that's all.
41:08We should be free to roam, as the birds do.
41:11You know we can trace the sim to the shop you bought it in.
41:14Check their CCTV.
41:17Okay.
41:18Here's the truth.
41:20That woman you're talking about.
41:22Sophie Martin.
41:24That ain't me.
41:25But those texts?
41:30I sent him.
41:31Not for the reason you think though.
41:33Why then?
41:35Two months ago, I sent dear Hortense a letter.
41:40Hortense told me to cut my mother out of my life.
41:44Toxic mothers shouldn't be allowed to act that way, she said.
41:48A bit hypocritical coming from her.
41:50I did what she said.
41:52Know what?
41:54My mother died, alone in her bed.
41:58If I hadn't listened to that loud-mouthed woman, I would have been there.
42:02That must have made you angry.
42:04Not enough to kill her.
42:05I wanted to scare her.
42:07Make her suffer.
42:09The same way I've been suffering.
42:11Walking about this earth with a perfect life.
42:14Little care for the people whose life she ruins.
42:24Miss Jones, with no disrespect, but...
42:28It kind of seems like you're more angry at yourself.
42:33Look, I'm no expert, but...
42:36It doesn't help to hold onto things.
42:54So, we're still having a scooby how the killer pulled off this murder.
42:57A stack of six papers, and they managed to poison one,
43:00and have it delivered practically straight into Hortense LaRue's hands.
43:03And let's not forget about the egg.
43:05What happened that morning to make her ruin a perfectly good breakfast?
43:09Sir...
43:10Hold that thought.
43:11I'm late.
43:15I'll be back.
43:16Okay.
43:23How do you feel?
43:26Um...
43:26Better.
43:28Definitely better.
43:30I mean, everything here is just, um...
43:35You know? Gone.
43:36All I need to do now is post it.
43:39Well done.
43:40Okay.
43:41Now, can we talk a little more about your life here?
43:45How long have you got?
43:47About half an hour.
43:49No, I meant...
43:57She timed it?
43:59Why didn't she take it out?
44:02And the egg, how long did she cook it for?
44:04Three minutes, social.
44:06He then cycled straight here, delivered the newspaper to Madame LaRue at 7.15am.
44:11I'm sorry, the little man doesn't like strangers.
44:14There were no fingerprints found on Hortense's glasses.
44:17I wanted to scare her.
44:19I wanted her to suffer the same way I've been suffering.
44:22Of course.
44:23Well, that's the reason why.
44:25Why what?
44:26The egg was hard boiled.
44:27I can see everything clearly now.
44:33Thanks for your patience.
44:36I know who the killer is.
44:37I know how they did it.
44:39Those photos are from the Paris police.
44:40Have they come through?
44:41Just in.
44:42Right, we need a search warrant.
44:44And then we can have a little family reunion.
44:53Agony Arts are known for giving advice to help solve difficult problems.
44:58However, I doubt they've ever been asked to advise on a problem as difficult as this one.
45:04Hortense LaRue was poisoned.
45:06Effectively by her own column.
45:08But we had no idea how the killer managed to poison the newspaper and get it delivered straight to her.
45:15When the paper boy took one at random from his stack.
45:20But, with the help of a hard boiled egg...
45:23Not this again.
45:25We finally cracked it.
45:29You, Kim.
45:31It was you who murdered Hortense.
45:33Me?
45:35No.
45:35I told you.
45:36I was telling the truth.
45:38As Miss LaRue's housekeeper, you knew her morning routine.
45:41That she liked to read her column whilst having her breakfast.
45:45You also knew that Clayton drops the paper on the porch at 7.15am.
45:51And Papillon barks to alert Hortense as he always does when someone's at the door.
45:56So, earlier that morning, you went to another newsagent.
46:00And bought a copy of the St. Marie News.
46:04Let's call this Paper A.
46:07You then laced the problem page with cone snail poison.
46:11Something you knew about from Hortense's fear of her dog getting stung by one.
46:15My mum was always paranoid he'd get stung.
46:17Then you dropped Paper A onto the porch sometime before Clayton usually arrived.
46:24Hortense must have been in the middle of preparing her breakfast.
46:29Papillon barked as normal, so she went outside to collect the newspaper she thought had just been delivered.
46:39She went back into the kitchen, eager to see if her request to change her final column had been carried
46:44out.
46:45In doing so, she came into contact with the poison and subsequently died.
46:51A painful death by all accounts.
46:56You then came into the house, through the back.
47:00And put on Hortense's purple gown, a wig matching her hair with a purple headband.
47:06And finally, the item that was unmistakably Hortense, her statement, purple glasses.
47:15As usual, at 7.15, Clayton delivered the newspaper, Paper B, and Papillon barked.
47:23Kim, now dressed as Hortense, opened the door and waved to him.
47:27As Clayton cycled away, he wouldn't have known that it was in fact you waving at him and not Hortense.
47:33You then came back into the kitchen and returned Miss LaRue's glasses, wiping away any prints first.
47:42Now, we come to the egg, and your ultimate downfall.
47:46You see, in your haste to stage the scene before Esme arrived, you almost forgot Miss LaRue's egg was still
47:53boiling away on the stove.
47:54You needed everything to look exactly as it should, to fit the timeline of Hortense making breakfast, then reading her
48:02column.
48:03So, you hurriedly took the now hard-boiled egg out of the pan and clumsily put it in the egg
48:10cup.
48:11Then you left the house, through the back, the same way you came, got into your car that was parked
48:17around the corner,
48:17and drove her on the front to time perfectly with Esme's arrival.
48:24You later disposed of Paper B and the wig at your home.
48:31We found these in the bin on your street.
48:34An audacious, yet brilliant plan.
48:38But why go to such lengths?
48:43Kim Woods isn't your real name, is it?
48:47You are, in fact, Sophie Martin.
48:52Thirty years ago, Sophie Martin moved to Paris from the UK with her boyfriend who was escaping some trouble back
49:01home.
49:01She was living in a commune in Montmartre, and it's there she met Hortense, an ambitious writer.
49:12Sophie was a drug addict with a newborn baby.
49:17You were doing your best, no doubt. But from what we now know about Miss LaRue, she had a saviour
49:25complex.
49:26Through our undercover investigation, we discovered her secret.
49:31Hortense stole your baby in the night, and went as far away as she could.
49:38To St. Marie.
49:40To St. Marie.
49:41That baby was you, Esme.
49:45You're my mother.
49:49Hortense was my friend, and she offered to look after you.
49:55And yes, I was struggling, but I loved you so much.
50:00And then one morning I woke up and you was gone, and I didn't sleep today searching for you.
50:08But then you found out Hortense was here, didn't you?
50:12Through her column.
50:13So all those years ago, you wrote this letter to dear Hortense.
50:20The same letter Hortense wanted to publish at the very last minute for her final issue.
50:28I wanted her to know I was coming for her.
50:31Then you were arrested?
50:33The guy I was going out with at the time, he told the police that I was involved in an
50:38armed robbery and someone got really badly hurt.
50:41And it was all lies.
50:43I had nothing to do with it, he was not a good man, and I didn't get a chance to
50:48send the letter.
50:50It put me away for years.
50:53Time after time, my parole was refused.
50:56And I lost all hope.
50:58Until one day, I finally got myself together, got myself clean.
51:03That day came.
51:05And I knew what I had to do.
51:08I had to find you.
51:10No hurt Hortense for what she'd done.
51:13I came to St Marie.
51:16First place I went was the newsagent and I saw the ad for her housekeeper.
51:20It felt like fate.
51:22Come in.
51:24You bided your time.
51:26Working out the perfect murder plan.
51:29When Hortense received your letter, she must have known you were gunning for her.
51:35You read her response.
51:37She didn't regret it.
51:40No one bit.
51:44Esme, I don't expect you to forgive me.
51:47But I would really like you to understand that what she did destroyed me.
51:54Killing her was the only way I could ever have a relationship with you.
52:00Officer Rose?
52:03Officer Martin, I'm arresting you for the murder of Hortense Leroux.
52:08You don't need to say anything.
52:10But it may harm your defense if you do not mention one question.
52:13Something which you later rely on in cause.
52:15You think you do say it may be given in evidence.
52:18So my whole life been alive.
52:23Hortense's love for you?
52:25That was real.
52:56Hortense's love for you.
52:59T-climmitator's love for you.
53:05You can't find us everywhere.
53:09You can't find us.

53:13Until you get here.
53:13You can find us.
53:17You can find us.
53:19You have one other person.
53:27Hey!

53:36Mervin, ja?
53:38Ja?
53:40Didn't you hear me knack?
53:42No, I was sleeping, actually. Deeply.
53:46You're older than I imagined.
53:48Sorry, who are you?
53:50Just one second.
53:52Come on! Just give it up, man.
53:57Finally!
53:59Stupid boy's been holding out,
54:01and all he's got is a pair of sixes.
54:04Amateur.
54:06Is that a gambling app?
54:08I don't think you should be playing, then.
54:10Don't sweat it. It's cool.
54:13Dad said you were a goody-goody,
54:15but I guess that come to the job, right?

54:21who your dad is,
54:22and what you're doing on my property,
54:24where I'm arresting you for trespass.
54:26And you being the detective?
54:28It's me, Eloise, Yanis.
54:33Sorry, what?
54:34Yanis?
54:35Eloise?
54:37Did Dad not mention me to you?
54:40No, he...
54:41No-one mentioned you.
54:47Well, I'm sure he was going to.
54:49He's a busy guy, you know.
54:51Lot on his plate.
54:54So, what would you prefer when I call you?
54:59Uncle Marvin?
55:01Uncle Merv?
55:03Just Merv?
55:09What's for breakfast?
55:17Hey, don't touch anything!
