00:00:07Hi!
00:00:09Mike Shepard!
00:00:12Tony, isn't it?
00:00:13Tony Kinetti.
00:00:13You got it.
00:00:14Kinetti's the name.
00:00:15Cars on the game.
00:00:17You moved away from...
00:00:18Guns? Nah, never.
00:00:19Still love a good firearm, but
00:00:20cars are my true love.
00:00:22Let's face it, guns and cars mean what else makes a man?
00:00:26So you're finally ready for an upgrade, eh?
00:00:28I'm making some big changes.
00:00:31They've been having a few issues lately.
00:00:34Expensive? Yeah, I know.
00:00:35That's the good thing with buying new.
00:00:37Nothing ever goes wrong. And what are you thinking?
00:00:39One for you and for the missus? Ah, there is no missus.
00:00:42It's because of the car.
00:00:43Once we get you behind the wheel of a sexy new sedan
00:00:45or a sporty little number, you'll have a guaranteed harem
00:00:47of women hanging off every fender.
00:00:49So many, in fact, you might have to scale up to a Ranger.
00:00:51More room to keep them in the back.
00:00:53More wearing the bikinis, of course, and that is what a new car
00:00:55from Kinetti's will get you. That's your sales pitch, is it?
00:00:58New car and semi-naked woman.
00:01:01Too much.
00:01:02Have a great day, Tony.
00:01:03Wait, Mike, we haven't told finance.
00:01:05Not even a test drive, free roadside assistance,
00:01:07not that you need it.
00:01:09Good luck, Tony.
00:01:11Good luck.
00:01:12Come on, Mike!
00:01:13I haven't had a sale in six months!
00:01:29Hello?
00:01:30You okay in there?
00:01:33You're parked in a disabled spot, but you have no sticker!
00:01:58And you have no idea who he is?
00:02:00No.
00:02:02At least I've never seen him in the congregation.
00:02:04I wouldn't want to draw any conclusions,
00:02:06but you should know we hire out this hall to various groups,
00:02:10including a hot women's yoga.
00:02:12But, um, last night it was a ukulele group.
00:02:16Good to know.
00:02:18Thank you, Reverend.
00:02:19If we need anything else, we'll come back to you.
00:02:26Odd choice of murder weapon.
00:02:28Indeed.
00:02:30You know, this is usually where Mike talks to the deceased.
00:02:34Yeah, I know.
00:02:36Pass?
00:02:37Yeah, that's a Mike thing.
00:02:39Lena, good morning.
00:02:41Uh, unidentified white male.
00:02:42Roscoff Flynn.
00:02:44Sorry?
00:02:45That's Roscoscar.
00:02:47Oh, okay.
00:02:48Uh, if it is him, he's our victim, you know?
00:02:54I may have been the last person to see him alive after rehearsal.
00:02:57Good night, Rosco.
00:02:58Hi, Gina.
00:02:59Hey, lovely suggestion about doing that original song.
00:03:01Next week, we'll make it happen.
00:03:03I'm so happy.
00:03:04We're both in the ukulele orchestra.
00:03:07You're writing songs now?
00:03:10Just one.
00:03:11But I think it's quite good.
00:03:12Well, I'm a woman of many talents.
00:03:14Yes, so many.
00:03:16Uh, Gina, given you knew the victim, you okay to do what you came to do?
00:03:20Of course.
00:03:21There will be no problem with me performing my duties.
00:03:24Right.
00:03:25Um, well, we will need your statement after you...
00:03:29What?
00:03:30Do what you do, you know, at the mortuary.
00:03:35I'm having real trouble putting the words Gina and ukulele together.
00:03:43Yes, I said ukulele.
00:03:45That is not your standard murder weapon.
00:03:47No, it is not.
00:03:49Or anything that I would ever associate with Gina.
00:03:51Yet, she is our star witness.
00:03:54Or suspect, or something.
00:03:56What do you want to do about that?
00:03:58Have you done a welfare check with her?
00:03:59Yeah, she said she's fine to continue.
00:04:02Then I wouldn't argue.
00:04:07How's the big house move going?
00:04:09I'll get back to you.
00:04:12Let's...
00:04:12Mike is still on leave?
00:04:14Moving day.
00:04:16A fresh new start for him.
00:04:20So, you want to tell us about last night?
00:04:24When I arrived, Selina Dean, our teacher, and her niece Julie Jones were there first, as usual.
00:04:32Gina, that song you suggested about lions and leopards.
00:04:35I love it.
00:04:36It's not finished yet.
00:04:37Oh, no, I know.
00:04:38But it will be.
00:04:39And you will absolutely shine.
00:04:41Oh.
00:04:42And of course, Annabella was already there, as always.
00:04:45Roscoe's ex-wife.
00:04:46Sort of.
00:04:47Oh, definitely his ex-wife now that he's dead.
00:04:50Amicable?
00:04:51Who knows who divorce was go on under the surface.
00:04:55Why am I in this room?
00:04:57You're giving a statement?
00:04:58I prefer somewhere more comfortable.
00:05:06Gina, I don't think...
00:05:07Since Mike is not here, I'm sure he would like me to keep his seat warm for him.
00:05:14Um...
00:05:15Okay.
00:05:19Better.
00:05:20So, where were we?
00:05:22People arriving for last night's practice.
00:05:25Next was Frodo.
00:05:26Your oat milk latte, my lady.
00:05:29Frodo, you are such a darling, as usual.
00:05:32Thank you very much.
00:05:33He's enthusiastic, but lacks discipline.
00:05:35Becky, those cat videos you sent me are so funny.
00:05:39Becky and Josefa were next.
00:05:41Oh, you're gonna have a laugh, don't you?
00:05:44Hello, my friend.
00:05:45How are you doing?
00:05:46You know.
00:05:48Josefa was depressed.
00:05:49But then, he's always depressed.
00:05:51Okay, let's not wait any longer.
00:05:53We'll warm things up with a little stroll down Dominion Road.
00:05:56One, two, three, four.
00:05:59And then, Roscoe arrived.
00:06:01In the way that Roscoe always arrives.
00:06:04He's swept into a room like he owned it.
00:06:07And everyone in it.
00:06:11I know, late as usual.
00:06:13Traffic was horrendous.
00:06:14It's 7pm on a Monday in Broken Wood.
00:06:19Hey, trophy.
00:06:22Sorry.
00:06:23Trophy.
00:06:24As in, trophy wife.
00:06:26Charming.
00:06:27Behind his back, she's calling him her participation certificate.
00:06:31Okay.
00:06:33They had a complex relationship.
00:06:35A lot of hate on the surface.
00:06:36But definitely a lot still going on underneath.
00:06:39Like, when he joined the orchestra, he just walked in, sat down next to her, and started playing.
00:06:46Selena, our teacher, hated Roscoe from day one.
00:06:49And if Annabella had had a word in her ear, Selena would have kicked him out in a heartbeat.
00:06:56But she never said a word.
00:06:59But if Selena hated Roscoe, why didn't she just kick him out herself?
00:07:03Because there was a reason to keep him in.
00:07:06So, Dominion Road, was it?
00:07:08It's hard to tell, because all I could hear was except for playing some random chords.
00:07:11Oh, yeah. Hilarious, Roscoe. We all have dinner.
00:07:14Yes. Dominion Road.
00:07:16Nice.
00:07:17One, two, three, go!
00:07:26Dominion Road is bending
00:07:29Under its own weight
00:07:33Shining like a string
00:07:35Cut from a sheet
00:07:36Middle play
00:07:38Cause it's just been raining
00:07:40Say whatever you want about Roscoe Flynn
00:07:44His playing was excellent.
00:07:47And then...
00:07:49Lars Lowe arrived.
00:07:50All way down, all way down, all way down
00:07:55Dominion Road
00:07:59Yeah, oh
00:08:03Yeah, oh
00:08:10Another Kiwi classic slaughtered at your altar.
00:08:13Go away, Leslo. You know you're not welcome here.
00:08:15Lars Lowe Carsten. He used to be part of the BUO until he and Selena fell out.
00:08:20Sorry, the BUO?
00:08:22The Brokenwood Ukulele Orchestra. Now he's the leader of Brokenwood's other ukulele group.
00:08:29Brokenwood has two ukulele groups.
00:08:32Newkelele Armageddon.
00:08:34How have I never seen either of them advertised anywhere?
00:08:37Because neither of them ever played live, yet.
00:08:40It is a race to be ready first.
00:08:43Very much like getting a man into space.
00:08:45Russia took that one.
00:08:47But the US landed on the moon.
00:08:49But did they?
00:08:51Really?
00:08:52The BUO was well in the lead.
00:08:54Mainly because Newkelele Armageddon was still a group of one.
00:08:58How can one person be a group?
00:09:00When you are Lars Lowe Carsten, you are already one of many.
00:09:04Coffee.
00:09:16You need to know.
00:09:18No one liked Laszlo.
00:09:20Look, Laszlo, no one wants to join your stupid group.
00:09:24You say stupid. I say the future.
00:09:27I don't want any of you as part of Newkelele Armageddon.
00:09:32Except, um...
00:09:33Come on, Roscoe.
00:09:34You and me together.
00:09:36What beautiful music we can make.
00:09:38Laszlo was there to steal Roscoe Flynn from the orchestra.
00:09:42Why? To go off and be like a ukulele wham?
00:09:46Oh, Laszlo's vision is much darker than ours or wham's.
00:09:50You have a vision.
00:09:53Sorry?
00:09:54Darkness is not what I seek with a BUO.
00:09:59Can I finish my story?
00:10:00I have work to attend to.
00:10:02Please, carry on.
00:10:03So, yes.
00:10:04Laszlo was trying to uplift Roscoe from our orchestra.
00:10:08Laszlo, mate.
00:10:09I've told you time and time again,
00:10:11I'm not into that metal meets uke mashup thing you want to do.
00:10:15I just play it because I want to have fun.
00:10:17Isn't that right, my sweet?
00:10:19Oh, yeah. Fun, fun, fun.
00:10:22You owe me.
00:10:23No, mate.
00:10:25You and me are a long time done.
00:10:28So, ta-ta.
00:10:32I'm not giving up.
00:10:35Laszlo departed the building.
00:10:36We rehearsed as usual for two hours.
00:10:39Right.
00:10:40Moving on to slice of heaven, I think.
00:10:43No more disruptions.
00:10:45Just like-minded people and their ukuleles.
00:10:49Now, I must go and autopsy Roscofflin.
00:10:53Uh, Gina, just one last thing.
00:10:55What is it you seek playing the ukulele?
00:11:00That's the word you used.
00:11:02Seek.
00:11:03What has this got to do with the death of Roscofflin?
00:11:06No, nothing. I'm just curious.
00:11:08Then it's nothing to do with you.
00:11:15I mean, I'm not wrong, am I?
00:11:18The ukulele is so not Gina.
00:11:20The ways of Gina perplexed us all.
00:11:22Hang on.
00:11:23Could you be very careful?
00:11:26I, uh, know Roscofflin.
00:11:28Oh, well, I've never actually met him, but I know who he is.
00:11:32A property developer.
00:11:33Oh, okay.
00:11:34Well, then the suspect list just got a whole lot longer.
00:11:36Ragsby something.
00:11:37I took a look at the size of the sort of buy-off for planes.
00:11:40It's not really me.
00:11:42Oh, hang on.
00:11:43It's okay.
00:11:43I can take those.
00:11:47So, uh, here.
00:11:48Call me if you need me.
00:11:49Will do.
00:11:50Tell you what.
00:11:50You said Joseph and Knight was part of the group.
00:11:53Uh, yeah. You know him?
00:11:55I do.
00:11:55In fact, he's just bought and sold houses for me.
00:11:58Why don't I talk to him?
00:12:00Especially seeing as he's just walked through my door.
00:12:03Yeah, okay. That sounds sensible.
00:12:05Back to you soon.
00:12:07Yosefa.
00:12:08Mike!
00:12:09How's the big move going?
00:12:10Pretty good.
00:12:11Nothing too damaged that can't be fixed.
00:12:13Nah, they're good boys, these ones.
00:12:15They're best in town.
00:12:16My research led me to believe they're the only ones in town.
00:12:19Wait.
00:12:19Just because they're the only doesn't mean they can't also be the best.
00:12:22I guess that's true.
00:12:24Now, I have a little tradition on every moving in day that I'm involved in.
00:12:27A little housewarming gift.
00:12:28It's very nice.
00:12:30Why don't you and I share a drop?
00:12:32After we've had a wee chat, what do we have left to chat about?
00:12:36Are not our chatting days done?
00:12:38This is about Roscoe Flynn.
00:12:41What about Roscoe?
00:12:43And the fact that last night, he died.
00:12:53Here.
00:12:54To help deal with the news.
00:12:56Is this your stuff?
00:12:57My humble offering to the gods of wine.
00:13:00Are we alone?
00:13:02Yeah.
00:13:10Oh, sorry about the bottle before.
00:13:12I'll get you another.
00:13:13Nah, not to worry.
00:13:15So, you're a member of the Broken Wood Ukulele Orchestra?
00:13:19Yes.
00:13:20Yeah.
00:13:21I wouldn't have picked that.
00:13:22I wouldn't have picked that.
00:13:22Not my idea.
00:13:24Whose was it?
00:13:25Annabella's.
00:13:26She was worried I was depressed.
00:13:28Thought getting a bit of pass figure into my life might cheer me up.
00:13:30I tried to explain I'm always depressed, but once Annabella makes a decision that stays
00:13:35decided.
00:13:36I'm a terrible player, but strumming away, you know, does have a certain calming effect.
00:13:40And you worked with Roscoe?
00:13:42I wouldn't say with.
00:13:43Well, I saw your name on a sign up at the Ragsby development.
00:13:47Ragsby Gardens.
00:13:49Yeah, I had the exclusive listing rights, but I'm not actively working on the project.
00:13:54In fact, Roscoe and I, we rarely spoke.
00:13:57But you were in the orchestra together.
00:13:59I was doing the ukulele thing for a while.
00:14:02Roscoe arrived on the scene much later.
00:14:04Hmm.
00:14:05Before or after he and Annabella got divorced?
00:14:08They're not divorced.
00:14:09Yet.
00:14:10We're going through the process.
00:14:12But yes, after proceedings began, then they started coming along.
00:14:17So you're getting divorced, then you join your wife's music group?
00:14:21You have to talk to Annabella about that.
00:14:24The ukulele, that was a them thing.
00:14:26Hmm.
00:14:29How were they last night?
00:14:32Do you think she killed him?
00:14:33I don't think anything at the moment.
00:14:35I just want to know if anything was out of the ordinary.
00:14:39Well, apart from that Norwegian death ukulele freak show, Laszlo turning up trying to steal Roscoe from the group.
00:14:47No, it was very much a normal session.
00:14:50And then Roscoe Flynn ended up dead?
00:14:52Yeah.
00:14:54Okay, that was a little different.
00:15:00I used to play the ukulele.
00:15:05Your secret is safe with me.
00:15:08At school.
00:15:08Wasn't half bad.
00:15:10Anything leaping off the screen?
00:15:13Yosefa Knight has a whole heap of speeding tickets against his name.
00:15:17It's not exactly a homicide, is it?
00:15:19Julie Jones, meanwhile, has many convictions, including assault, and in fact, is not long out of prison.
00:15:27Hmm, that's more like it.
00:15:29Conditions of her parole include residing with her aunt, Selena Dean.
00:15:34Do I have Roscoe Flynn's address?
00:15:36Yep.
00:15:37There first, then swing by Miss Jones for a quick word.
00:15:40I reckon.
00:15:47Who says there's no honesty in advertising?
00:15:50And this is definitely Roscoe Flynn's given address?
00:15:53I'm guessing that counts, is it?
00:15:59I thought this guy was rich.
00:16:02I mean, it's quite a nice caravan.
00:16:21I'm guessing she ended up with a marital property.
00:16:26Ragsby Gardens, where divorced men come to die.
00:16:30Let's get out of here.
00:16:31Fair call.
00:16:44Julie Jones?
00:16:48Should we chase after her?
00:16:50Why?
00:16:51It's a pretty suspicious behaviour.
00:16:54Fill your boots.
00:16:56I want to know why someone runs before I chase after them.
00:16:59Yeah, I can work with that.
00:17:17Hello?
00:17:17Selina Dean?
00:17:19Yes?
00:17:20Detective Kristen Simms.
00:17:21This is DC Chalmers.
00:17:23Was it the person there working on the Jeep?
00:17:26Julie Jones?
00:17:27She was here, yeah.
00:17:28What did you want to talk to her about?
00:17:30The same thing we'd like to speak to you about.
00:17:33The death of Roscoe Flynn.
00:17:37Roscoe?
00:17:39And you were the last to leave the hall?
00:17:41I set the alarm locked up.
00:17:43As per usual.
00:17:44And Roscoe was still in the car park?
00:17:46Yes.
00:17:48Whatever you say.
00:17:50Yeah.
00:17:51Yeah.
00:17:54Night, Roscoe.
00:17:56Okay.
00:17:57Yeah.
00:17:58Alright.
00:18:02Maybe.
00:18:04Any other cars still there?
00:18:06No, just Roscoe's.
00:18:09Anything out of the ordinary in the session?
00:18:12Rehearsal?
00:18:13No.
00:18:14Not even Laszlo's little visit was at first.
00:18:17He was trying to poach Roscoe, is that right?
00:18:20Among other things.
00:18:21Such as?
00:18:23Laszlo's still not thrilled I kicked him out of the orchestra.
00:18:25Why did you kick him out?
00:18:27Have you met Laszlo yet?
00:18:28No.
00:18:29You'll figure it out.
00:18:31So Roscoe replaced him in the group?
00:18:33No, there was an overlap.
00:18:34Which is why Laszlo wanted Roscoe for his little art project?
00:18:39Whatever he's calling it.
00:18:40Ukulele Armageddon.
00:18:41Stupidest name ever.
00:18:43Roscoe was your best player.
00:18:46By some margin, unfortunately.
00:18:49And how was he last night?
00:18:50Same as usual.
00:18:51Last to arrive.
00:18:52First out the door at the end.
00:18:53He left first.
00:18:55From memory, he, Annabella and Josefa left together.
00:19:00Night, Josefa.
00:19:01Great rehearsal tonight, Selena.
00:19:03I really feel we're getting close.
00:19:05Close to what?
00:19:06Performing in public.
00:19:08Opinion is divided on whether we're ready.
00:19:10In what way?
00:19:11They all want to, but I don't think we're anywhere near it yet.
00:19:14Is that a bone of contention?
00:19:16Yeah.
00:19:17Mainly with Roscoe, who'd just like to show off.
00:19:20How did Annabella take it when he joined the orchestra and started throwing his weight around?
00:19:25In her stride.
00:19:26The way she does everything.
00:19:28She's a friggin' saint.
00:19:30That's high praise.
00:19:31She's worth it.
00:19:32Like, when Julie came to live with me, I'm sure you know the circumstances.
00:19:37We do.
00:19:39Annabella was the only one around here that gave her the time of day.
00:19:42She even gave her a job doing gardening and stuff.
00:19:44Which is a hell of a lot better than doing break-ins, I'm sure you'd agree.
00:19:47Undoubtedly.
00:19:48Well, tell Julie we'd like a word.
00:19:51When she comes back from wherever she needed to be in such a hurry.
00:19:58You know, I get the appeal of the ukulele.
00:20:01If it's playing in the background when you're in Hawaii.
00:20:04Laying on the beach, sipping Mai Tais.
00:20:06Well, I am more partial to a daiquiri myself.
00:20:12Okay.
00:20:13Roscoe Flynn's phone records tell the story.
00:20:16Oh, so who did he talk to last before he died?
00:20:19The ex-wife.
00:20:20In fact, Roscoe and Annabella talked to each other a lot for a couple going through a divorce.
00:20:25They had some stuff to sort out.
00:20:26Hmm.
00:20:27Some might say that's why God gave us lawyers.
00:20:31Most divorced couples I know, the last thing they want to do is talk to each other.
00:20:35You know a lot of divorced couples, do you?
00:20:37More than I would like.
00:20:38Another frequent caller.
00:20:41Usually unanswered.
00:20:43A number belonging to Laszlo Carlson.
00:20:46Hmm.
00:20:47Roscoe wasn't keen on talking to Laszlo then.
00:20:56Gina.
00:20:57I need to talk to Mike.
00:20:58Why'd you call me then?
00:20:59He didn't pick up my call.
00:21:01That's because, as I explained, Mike's on the sidelines for this one.
00:21:06Then you need to know that Roscoe Flynn was killed by ukelele.
00:21:10Hmm.
00:21:11Yeah, I think that was quite obvious, Gina.
00:21:13But this ukelele was engineered to kill.
00:21:17For Roscoe Flynn, death had four strings.
00:21:25Yeah, I know those moving guys.
00:21:27They come here quite a bit.
00:21:28They reckon when you're fully caffeinated you move stuff faster.
00:21:31Just safer is all I'm after.
00:21:33Yeah.
00:21:33Well, you don't want to believe everything you're hearing.
00:21:36But is the news true about Roscoe Flynn?
00:21:38Word gets around.
00:21:38Not a word, Frodo.
00:21:41Reverend Green has sworn me to secrecy so I cannot share what I know.
00:21:45But...
00:21:50Roscoe Flynn was found dead this morning.
00:21:52No way.
00:21:53How?
00:21:54Frodo, I cannot say.
00:21:56Strangled to death with a broken ukelele.
00:21:59Far out.
00:21:59Why would somebody want to kill Roscoe?
00:22:01He's a bit of a dick at times, but he was always okay with me.
00:22:05When exactly did you last see Roscoe Flynn?
00:22:08When me and Mrs. Baker were leaving rehearsal.
00:22:11Nailed it tonight, Frodo.
00:22:12Hey, thanks man.
00:22:13Where have I heard that from?
00:22:15Never mind, I played well tonight, Roscoe.
00:22:17Oh, no.
00:22:18Yeah, totally.
00:22:18You were killing it.
00:22:20Not that I mean Mrs. Baker killed her.
00:22:23Well, I'm sure she didn't.
00:22:24That'd be weird.
00:22:25It would.
00:22:26Have you met Annabella yet?
00:22:28Not yet.
00:22:29She's like the coolest and nicest person on the planet.
00:22:32Positive, full of encouragement.
00:22:34Like with Gina and her song.
00:22:36What song is this?
00:22:38Uh, nothing.
00:22:39Just the way she plays.
00:22:41Like songs and stuff.
00:22:43Frodo, why is Gina on their ukelele?
00:22:45I have customers.
00:22:54Gina.
00:22:55Oh, you're making house calls.
00:22:56I would like to demonstrate something to you.
00:22:59Cause of death for Roscoe Flynn.
00:23:01Ligature strangulation.
00:23:03Ligature meaning a device was used as opposed to manual strangulation by the hands.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:08Thanks, you know.
00:23:10It was done with enough force to fracture the hyoid bone.
00:23:15Injury to its hands consistent with trying to fight the ligature.
00:23:19But it would have been over very quickly.
00:23:21So, obviously the assailant was big enough and strong enough.
00:23:24No, no.
00:23:24Not obviously.
00:23:25Sit.
00:23:28Why don't you use DC Chalmers to demonstrate and I can take notes?
00:23:32I was thinking the same thing about being the one taking notes.
00:23:34But I was thinking it as your senior officer.
00:23:44Roscoe Flynn sits in the front seat.
00:23:47Has no idea someone is behind him.
00:23:50Oh!
00:23:51See?
00:23:52Exactly as Roscoe Flynn did.
00:23:54I think anyone would.
00:23:55But too late.
00:23:56The ligature is already biting into the neck.
00:23:59All the person behind him needs to do is lean back.
00:24:02And if necessary, put their knee in the back of the seat.
00:24:06Yeah.
00:24:06Okay.
00:24:07Got it.
00:24:07Relax.
00:24:08I'm not actually going to kill you.
00:24:10Just showing that the offender doesn't need to be big and strong.
00:24:14Because physics is doing the work.
00:24:16Now, with the head trapped against the headrest, they cannot rush around.
00:24:21Snap.
00:24:23Higher-eat bone.
00:24:24Quick and clean.
00:24:28Physics got it.
00:24:30So why the unusual choice of murder weapon?
00:24:33The ukulele.
00:24:35It's an instrument of love.
00:24:37Men and women serenading each other to its gentle, soothing sounds.
00:24:43But this ukulele was re-engineered for one purpose only.
00:24:47To kill.
00:24:48The strings were super-glued into the bridge.
00:24:51And tied off to the tuning pegs.
00:24:53Just to make sure they didn't come loose during the act.
00:24:56Turning a ukulele into an instrument of death.
00:24:59That's definitely sending a message.
00:25:02Especially this ukulele.
00:25:03What's so special about it?
00:25:05This is a nainoa.
00:25:07Made in Hawaii from the wood of koa tree.
00:25:11As such, it can only be purchased in Hawaii.
00:25:14This is a very expensive, very special ukulele.
00:25:18How expensive?
00:25:19In the thousands.
00:25:21This was found in the footwell of the victim's car.
00:25:24Is it the same?
00:25:24This is Roscoe's ukulele.
00:25:27This is a twin of this one.
00:25:30As I said, message.
00:25:33Thanks, Gina.
00:25:34I must go now.
00:25:35In my excitement, I forgot to put him in the fridge.
00:25:41Start of a ten.
00:25:43Who does Gina want to serenade with her ukulele of live?
00:25:47Hmm, I couldn't possibly say.
00:25:59The thing is that when I came here, seems like a lifetime ago, the plan was to ease into retirement
00:26:07making wine.
00:26:07Although the retirement thing never quite happened.
00:26:10And the wine?
00:26:12Hmm.
00:26:12Well, it is what it is.
00:26:14My dad says it is what it is, means it is what it shouldn't be.
00:26:18Sure.
00:26:19Merlot.
00:26:20Yes, but I'm moving on now.
00:26:22And there's only two cases left.
00:26:24And I'm thinking, what better place for them to end up than...
00:26:28Than here?
00:26:29Hmm.
00:26:30Keep it local.
00:26:32No charge.
00:26:32I'd be happy knowing they found a good home.
00:26:43Trudy will get back to you.
00:26:49Maybe it's a cultural thing with Gina.
00:26:52Being in a ukulele orchestra.
00:26:54Instruments with less than six strings.
00:26:56Brokenwood doesn't have a balla-laika orchestra, so she went for the next best thing to express her love.
00:27:03Laszlo Carlson, not his birth name, he changed it.
00:27:07From?
00:27:09Liam Ragsby.
00:27:11Of Ragsby Gardens.
00:27:12Or a strange coincidence.
00:27:16Heads up.
00:27:18Oh, the track star returns.
00:27:24So, Roscoe Flynn is dead?
00:27:27He is.
00:27:28How'd he die?
00:27:29That's currently under investigation.
00:27:32Oh, you don't know.
00:27:33We do.
00:27:35Do you?
00:27:38Okay, can we cut the crap?
00:27:40Roscoe was a douchebag, yeah?
00:27:42But I didn't kill him.
00:27:43Why was he a douchebag?
00:27:45For what he did to Aunty Selina.
00:27:47It all got sorted out.
00:27:48Yeah, thanks to Annabella.
00:27:52A couple of years back, I was thinking about selling my place.
00:27:56I liked the look of what Roscoe was proposing at Kegans Bay.
00:27:59And so, I put a deposit down.
00:28:01Off the plans.
00:28:02Once he had no intention of ever building.
00:28:04No.
00:28:05I sincerely believe he had the best of intentions.
00:28:07It's just, you know, the economy.
00:28:10Besides, the money got paid back eventually.
00:28:12So, Annabella Flynn paid off her husband's debts on that project?
00:28:16Just me.
00:28:18I think she felt partially responsible because she put me in contact with him.
00:28:22And now she's given you a job.
00:28:25She's a good person.
00:28:27What else can I say?
00:28:29Last night, you arrived first, yeah?
00:28:32Yep.
00:28:33With Aunty Selina.
00:28:34You didn't notice anything other ordinary, apart from Laszlo Carlson's visit during the rehearsal?
00:28:40Roscoe was as obnoxious and not all as usual, so...
00:28:44No.
00:28:45Same old, same old.
00:28:47And then you were the last to leave, along with Selina.
00:28:51Uh, no.
00:28:52I left earlier.
00:28:54I decided to walk home.
00:28:56You didn't mention that.
00:28:58You never asked.
00:28:59It didn't occur to me.
00:29:01Julie often walks home.
00:29:02It's not that far.
00:29:03It's not that far enough.
00:29:03It helps me calm down.
00:29:06After...
00:29:09Roscoe.
00:29:11I like to walk.
00:29:21Good night, Julie.
00:29:24Pleasure as always.
00:29:28Actually, there was one thing that was kind of odd.
00:29:30Like, just down the road.
00:29:32Yusufa had pulled over.
00:29:34He was talking, like, on the phone, maybe.
00:29:36Or maybe to himself.
00:29:37I don't know.
00:29:38Whatever it was.
00:29:39He did not seem happy.
00:29:42Then I got home.
00:29:44And Aunty Selina was already there.
00:29:46We said goodnight.
00:29:48I went to sleep.
00:29:49The end.
00:29:52Once upon a time, according to your record, these late night walks sometimes ended up in other people's houses.
00:30:02None of that here, I hope.
00:30:05That was the old me.
00:30:08I don't have any desire to go back there.
00:30:16One steak and cheese.
00:30:18Thanks, Lena.
00:30:21My dad says they're the king of pies.
00:30:23Your dad sounds like an interesting man.
00:30:25Thanks.
00:30:26Yeah.
00:30:27He takes after me.
00:30:29Lena.
00:30:34Detective Shepard?
00:30:36Mrs Baker.
00:30:37Can I offer you a wine?
00:30:39Is that Merlot?
00:30:40Yes, the king of wines.
00:30:41Oh, God.
00:30:43Well, I, um...
00:30:46Don't drink red.
00:30:48Truly love.
00:30:49A sauf blanc when you have the time.
00:30:52Moving day out of here?
00:30:53Yes.
00:30:54Using the local mob?
00:30:56Didn't have much choice.
00:30:57Oh.
00:30:58You've heard the story about how they once delivered everything to the Roman trees.
00:31:03But I wouldn't worry about it.
00:31:05Oh.
00:31:06Do you mind if I ask you a couple of questions?
00:31:09About Roscoe Flynn.
00:31:11Terrible, terrible thing.
00:31:13I mean, I know he wasn't the most lovable human on the planet, but still.
00:31:17It happened after rehearsal, right? In the car park?
00:31:20There are things that I can neither confirm nor deny.
00:31:22You know about Julie, right?
00:31:24That girl has a past.
00:31:25Yes, we're aware of that.
00:31:27Oh, she's troubled that one.
00:31:28You can tell just by looking at her.
00:31:29Oh, thanks, love.
00:31:30I mean, Laszlo.
00:31:31I mean, he was dark when he was in the group.
00:31:33And then Roscoe George and he got even darker.
00:31:35And then Selina had to ask him to leave because we all agreed that he was creepy.
00:31:39Except for Annabella, of course, because she always sees the best in everyone.
00:31:43And now, it's like he just drags this big dark cloud around him wherever he goes.
00:31:47And you see that?
00:31:48I mean, he is weirdly devoted to Annabella.
00:31:52He's like a love-struck puppy around her.
00:31:53Oh, man.
