00:01Ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you the Luska.
00:07This giant cephalopod-like sea creature, half octopus, half shark, is, many believe, the stuff of fantasy.
00:16The kind of fictional monster Jules Verne might dream up.
00:20But then, there are those more open-minded souls, like myself,
00:24who believe this gigantic cryptid to be as real as you or I.
00:30I will present to you the evidence I have collated, proving this animal is no mere figment of the imagination.
00:35And it all begins with the first sighting, off the coast of St. Marie in 1823, by this man.
00:44A pirate by the name of Pierre Lafitte.
00:55Yeah, Lafitte was my great-great-great-grandfather.
00:59I'll tell you no lies. Still got the journal he had when he was pirating away.
01:03Passed on from generation to generation.
01:06And that's why this is the only boat trip where you can experience the exact place my ancestor witnessed.
01:14The Luska.
01:16Roll up, roll up! You know you want to.
01:19And I promise you guys, you will not be disappointed.
01:24So how was it? You're a believer now.
01:28To be honest, I think I'm even less of a believer than I was before.
01:34I don't know why you're bothered.
01:36Because I want to be prepared.
01:39I'm afraid nothing can prepare you for my ex-husband.
01:48Either that's him, or we've come to a soup kitchen by mistake.
01:56Hello, Giles.
01:57Cara, it's been a while, hasn't it?
02:00Death?
02:01Oh, er...
02:03Stop me.
02:09This is Rory.
02:12Ah, yes. Didn't realise you were bringing him. Nice to meet you, Rory.
02:18It's great to finally meet you, Giles.
02:20Can't wait to hear all your stories about the Luska.
02:22Absolutely fascinated about it.
02:24Ah.
02:26Would you like a glass of wine?
02:28Just a cup of coffee will do me, ta.
02:31Erm...
02:32Let me see if I can find a waiter.
02:34Sit down.
02:41So how are you?
02:43I mean, you know, the...
02:45the anniversary.
02:47Feels strange to be back.
02:51Like it was only yesterday.
02:53I'm taking the boat out later, to where it happened.
02:57Fancy joining.
02:58You remember him together?
02:59No, I'd rather stay here.
03:01With Rory.
03:04No, I'd rather stay here.
03:21With Rory.
03:21Poor guy.
03:31All right, Milano.
03:34All right, Milano.
03:36All right.
03:59It's just a bad dream.
04:08How have you been?
04:10Just went for a walk, that's all.
04:14Thanks.
05:13Good morning, sir. You good?
05:15No, I am not good.
05:18What's wrong?
05:20Turns out, I am an uncle.
05:22Yes, Mum.
05:25But I came to visit Uncle Merv anyway.
05:28That's Eloise, the niece I didn't know I had.
05:31So you're her Uncle Merv.
05:34No, I'm not.
05:35I mean, yes, I am her uncle, but not Merv.
05:37Never Merv, understood?
05:39OK. Clearly touched a nerve there.
05:44So she's Solomon's daughter?
05:46I don't know why he couldn't just tell me that in the first place.
05:48He could have just said, well, as it happens, I do have a daughter.
05:51Are he and her mother together?
05:53Yeah, not for some time, apparently.
05:55She's supposed to be staying with her Auntie Vondra,
05:57but she doesn't like it there, so she ran away and came here.
06:01They've got a case, I assume?
06:03Oh, my God.
06:04It's not a murder case, is it?
06:07Please let me come on a ride along, Uncle Merv.
06:10Please.
06:11Right.
06:11So, firstly, you're not coming on any ride-along.
06:14And secondly, it's not Uncle Merv.
06:17It's Merv Inn.
06:18Remember?
06:20Hi.
06:21I'm Naomi, by the way.
06:23I work with your Uncle Merv.
06:27Right.
06:28Go pack your stuff, young lady.
06:30You've got a boat to catch.
06:31I am sending you back home to Antigua.
06:34Whatever you say, Uncle Merv.
06:35And it's not...
06:39I like her.
06:45Victim's name's Giles Parry, 58 years of age.
06:48Body was found floating six miles out of sea.
06:51Sergeant Fletcher's with the Coast Guard now.
06:53A couple of fishermen going out early this morning came across the body,
06:57but paramedics reckon he'd been in the water since last night.
07:01Thing is, this is already causing a stir on the heart.
07:05Why is that?
07:06Because of those marks on his body.
07:10They're all over his front and his back.
07:12And the bruising here.
07:14Some people are saying it was caused by the Loska,
07:18and that's what killed him.
07:19Sorry, what?
07:21It's a sea monster.
07:22A sea monster?
07:23Like a local legend kind of thing.
07:26Half shark, half octopus wraps its tentacles around you, drags you under.
07:30A sea monster.
07:32A sea monster?
07:32Not everybody believes in this thing.
07:34Most people don't, but...
07:36Do you?
07:37No, but it's still part of our history.
07:41Part of our culture.
07:42Right.
07:43Well, we can knock that theory on the head as a possible cause of death, alright?
07:46Except there's a little more to it than that, sir.
07:49That's why he's here.
07:57I've always wondered whether this would come back to haunt me.
08:01Seven years ago yesterday,
08:04Giles Parry's 16-year-old son, Benjamin,
08:08drowned at sea.
08:11The exact same location as Giles' body was found this morning.
08:17A local fisherman told me that Mr. Parry had sailed out to that spot yesterday to pay his respects.
08:26Then he ended up dead himself?
08:28Mm-hmm.
08:30Was he stormy yesterday?
08:32Called the harbour master.
08:34It was calm for the last 24 hours.
08:36And do we know what time he left the harbour?
08:38Just before seven o'clock, according to the GPS.
08:42Also, there's a boat mechanic who's been fixing Mr. Parry's engine.
08:45He saw him leave.
08:47He says there was definitely nobody else on the boat with him.
08:50It arrived at a final destination half an hour later.
08:54Radar shows no other boat near it at any point.
08:56So, what happened to him?
08:59How did he end up dead with all those weird markings on him?
09:03Unless, you know, it was the last girl.
09:08I hate to break it to you, Officer Rose, but sea monsters don't exist?
09:11No, yeah, I know.
09:14Well, it'd be cool if they did do all right.
09:17What's that?
09:26It's a bullet.
09:28Our victim wasn't shot, right?
09:31No.
09:32And there was no gun found on the boat?
09:34Not that tough one so far.
09:40So, what is that doing here?
09:50I don't know what happened on that boat, but the fact that we found this on it means it's suspicious.
09:58I think someone else was there, you know?
10:04I'm going to talk to Catherine.
10:07From what I know, James Parry was an isolated figure, but he did drink at her bar and he would
10:13talk to her.
10:15I'm also going to contact the Guadalupe police and request the Benjamin Parry case files.
10:22So, the search back then wasn't led by the St. Marie team?
10:25As it was, the Guadalupe Coast Guard, who was first contacted when the empty boat was discovered,
10:32they staked their claim.
10:35I bet that rankled.
10:36I did push for us to have a role, but the senior investigating officer wasn't interested.
10:46There's some people on St. Marie who think I should have pressed harder,
10:52especially when they ran into a dead end earlier on.
10:57It's always been felt more could have been done, not by me.
11:07Considering I am already persona non grata,
11:12I would like to do my bit to try and solve this case now and win back the community's trust.
11:20I've located the victim's ex-wife.
11:23She and her partner are staying at a hotel just outside Tom.
11:35We arrived here two days ago to mark the anniversary of Kara's son's passing.
11:41And I'm sorry to ask, Miss Smart, but your son Benjamin, why did he take the boat out on his
11:47own?
11:49Giles had always been into UFOs and aliens, that kind of thing.
11:54Our holidays were spent visiting Loch Ness or the Bermuda Triangle.
11:59The Losca here on St. Marie.
12:01Ben was getting even more fanatical than his dad.
12:04That's why he snuck out on his own.
12:07And he took the boat we'd hired out for a last ditch sighting of the Losca.
12:13The weather turned bad. The sea was rough. He never came back.
12:22I kept hoping they'd find him alive with a life jacket on just floating somewhere.
12:28As time passed, you have to accept that he's not coming back.
12:34So you returned home to England?
12:36After ten months, Giles and I were arguing non-stop by then.
12:40I just needed some space, some time to process it all.
12:46Whereas he...
12:50Giles was convinced the Losca took their son. He became obsessed.
12:56That's why he stayed on here when I left.
12:59To try and prove the Losca exists.
13:02And he really, truly believed in it.
13:07And yesterday, did you see Giles at all?
13:11We had an early dinner at five.
13:13It's great to finally meet you, Giles.
13:15And how was that? How was Giles then?
13:18It was fine. You know, quiet.
13:21Giles was Giles.
13:23Still as delusional as he ever was.
13:26Did Giles ever own a gun at all?
13:28Not like we were together.
13:30And I struggled to leave. He bought one while he was out here.
13:34What exactly happened to Giles?
13:36You said that he was found dead at sea.
13:38I assumed it was an accident.
13:40But is there more to it than that?
13:43Well, we're not sure yet.
13:46We're still working on that one.
13:56Hey, my friend's dad swears he saw the Losca one time.
14:00Okay, son. Come on.
14:01It's never the same afterwards.
14:04Keep our focus on the keys.
14:08Keep our focus on the keys.
14:09Stay on the keys.
14:23Stay on the keys.
14:37We're in the keys.
14:38We're in the keys.
14:42Vondra Vondra it's all right she's back at my place she's safe thanks okay look I'll call you
14:47back in a bit here uncle Mo hope you're hungry I ordered lots which reminds me I borrowed your
14:58credit card this morning needed it to pay for the board to get back to Saint Marie and dinner you
15:03really are your father's daughter right here I know right what's going on Eloise why are you back here
15:11because we need to talk about dad we could have done that this morning why didn't you mention it
15:17then I was waiting for the right moment and before I know it you're shoving me on a boat back
15:22home all
15:25right what about your dad we need to work out a plan uncle Merv a plan for what to get
15:33him out of
15:33prison to find evidence that proves he's innocent okay um what exactly did your dad tell you about
15:42him being arrested just that he was set up and shouldn't be in jail that it's a miscarriage of
15:51justice so we need to help him right why don't you go and get some plates and cutlery yeah
16:09so you idiots
16:31Solomon clearly hasn't told her about the scam he got caught up in that he is good as shot someone
16:37and held me hostage he's dressed it up like he was the victim and she obviously idolizes him
16:45what are you going to do I should just tell her the truth right just tell her in a nice
16:54way not in a
16:57your kind of way what is a my kind of way you know sometimes you can be a tiny bit
17:05insensitive insensitive
17:09me insensitive or that is rubbish I mean if anything it's everyone else who is too sensitive
17:15sure that's totally what it is
17:21hey Louise
17:24right um I'm off to work now so we can have dinner later yeah and we'll um we'll talk
17:34okay uncle Merv
17:39old school I like it
17:47right where we at with the case anything from the lab yet post-mortems estimating time of death
17:54between 7 30 and 8 p.m. so the victim leaves the harbour at 7 dies between 7 30 and
18:028 at sea just after he drops anchor and cause of death was internal bleeding due to a ruptured spleen
18:11which in theory could have been caused by something gripping him tightly like the tentacles of the
18:19loss or more likely something else same with the red markings kinda like friction burns but there's nothing that they
18:30seem to suggest what might have caused it what about the search of the victim's house
18:35uh Matty and Seb are just starting
18:37uh
18:39uh
18:40uh
18:45uh
18:48uh
18:49uh
18:53uh
18:54uh
18:54uh
18:54uh
18:55uh
18:55I have to see this
18:56ten-year-old Seb will be losing his mind right now
19:01like sea monster central in here
19:06this is gonna be the best search ever
19:08all right officer rules
19:10you start on the computer I'll hit the cabinets
19:12all right cool
19:20you all right Sarge
19:22yeah it's just my old boss from Jamaica I'll call him once we're done with this
19:26all right
19:37so what do we know about our victim
19:38Giles Parry worked as a paramedic back in the UK until he moved out here seven years ago spent all
19:46his savings buying a boat and earned a small income giving talks about the legend of the Luska
19:51what about these two any sniff of a motive yet
19:53we're still waiting on Mr Lyons's background and financial checks but he and Cara have been together just over a
20:00year met on a dating app
20:02now as he only met the victim for the first time yesterday I'm struggling to find a reason for him
20:08wanting Mr Parry dead but she's a different story
20:12Miss Smart previously worked as a teacher before giving that up to write a book a few years ago
20:17a memoir about losing her son
20:19I skim read it and she's very honest about how hurt and angry she felt about Giles' behaviour
20:27when I needed my husband's love the most he disappeared down the rabbit hole of fantasy casting me aside for
20:34his futile belief in a mythical beast
20:37I mean the guy had gone full on Looney Tunes didn't he
20:40what was that you said earlier about not being insensitive
20:44where it gets interesting is the books no longer bringing in any money she's basically broke
20:51I spoke to her literary agent in the UK and apparently a US TV production company has offered to make
20:58a documentary about her and Giles' son going missing
21:01it's worth a quarter of a million dollars
21:04I'm sensing a but
21:06it going ahead was dependent on Mr Parry agreeing to appear in the documentary too
21:14don't tell me
21:15he didn't want to
21:22so we spoke to the staff here
21:24well that dinner you had with Giles it wasn't as sedate as you said it was
21:29according to them you got quite worked up Miss Smart
21:32angry that your ex-husband was refusing to agree to the documentary
21:37well that's an exaggeration if ever I heard one
21:39no it's not it's the truth
21:40Charles please I need this
21:43why are you being so stubborn?
21:44because I know what they'll do
21:46make me have to look like some mad conspiracy theorist
21:48I hate you Charles
21:49so much
21:53I didn't just lose a son seven years ago
21:56I lost my husband as well
21:58he never once thought of me
22:00that maybe he needed to be there for me
22:04and even now years later I ask for his help because
22:08yes I need the money
22:09I thought at least he owed me that one favour but
22:13no not even that
22:15thing is Miss Smart we checked with the production company
22:17and that documentary has officially got the go ahead
22:20so now with Giles dying in suspicious circumstances
22:23and even the locals saying it was the Lusker that did it
22:26well it's an even more tantalising proposition than it was before
22:28you get exactly what you wanted
22:30no you're wrong
22:31I didn't kill Giles to get some documentary made
22:35I'm not that desperate
22:38I better take this
22:42so you want to tell me where you were two nights ago between 7.30 and 8?
22:46we were here at the hotel
22:48we were together in our room
22:52it wasn't me it just wasn't
22:56sir
23:02that was my tissues with the commissioner
23:04they've got something
23:14this is the closest I've come to actually seeing it
23:17the Lusker
23:18I'm still shaking from what happened
23:21if there was proof she's out there this is it
23:23I've moored my boat a few miles out
23:25the coordinates are
23:2716 degrees
23:2832 minutes
23:2929.8 seconds
23:30north
23:3161 degrees
23:3255 minutes
23:3301.8 seconds
23:34west
23:35there's a sinkhole on the seabed there
23:36I had previously identified as a possible home for the creature
23:39amazing
23:40it was just getting dark
23:42it was just getting dark
23:43when I heard it
23:43I felt it
23:44a thud
23:45as it hit the bow of the boat
23:46and again
23:47and then again
23:48I could hear it dragging itself along as it tried to pull away
23:51it was her
23:52I know it was
23:54the Lusker
23:56I'm going to go back again tonight
23:59totally amazing
24:06just to confirm
24:08no one here actually thinks it was the Lusker that was underneath Giles Parry's boat
24:13well I'm not ruling it out inspector
24:15apart from officer Rose
24:17no of course we don't
24:18but
24:19there is more to it
24:20Giles Parry uploaded this vlog to his website two days before his death
24:25we checked his GPS
24:27and he went back to the same exact location the next night
24:30here
24:33and this isn't the same location Giles' body was found
24:36where his son Benjamin went missing
24:39no that was two miles away here
24:41but the thing is
24:43when Giles got back
24:44he deleted this video straight away
24:46so why?
24:48Catherine spoke to him shortly after
24:50and he seemed troubled
24:54everything alright Giles?
24:57hmm
24:57he asked me about the commissioner
24:59knew I was friends with him
25:01and said he might need to speak with him
25:04is it to do with Benjamin's disappearance?
25:08I don't know
25:10maybe
25:18hang on these are the same codon as he talked about in his vlog
25:21I don't know what happened there
25:23but it's clearly
25:24of significance
25:28we should go out there
25:29do a reenactment
25:31yeah
25:31same time
25:31same place
25:32same boat
25:33find out what this X is all about
25:35I was so hoping you was going to say that inspector
25:38I can't believe you're going on a monster hunt
25:41that's not what we're doing
25:42that's not what you're doing
25:51I don't understand
25:53if you're going on a boat trip
25:55why can't I come?
25:56because it might be dangerous
25:58well then I really want to come
26:00well you can't
26:01you're staying with Catherine tonight
26:02and we're getting you home first thing in the morning alright?
26:05but we need to talk about dad still
26:11okay
26:13look about your dad
26:14I don't know what he told you
26:16but it certainly wasn't factual
26:18what he was arrested for
26:19it's serious
26:21and I should know
26:22because I was there when it happened
26:25what are you saying?
26:28hey Louise
26:31listen
26:31there was no miscarriage of justice
26:33alright
26:34he wasn't falsely accused
26:36your dad is guilty
26:38so no
26:39I can't help you find new evidence
26:42and he'll be in prison for a while
26:45I'm sorry
26:48so what happens now?
26:50I just go back home in the morning?
26:53yeah
26:53of course
26:55I mean that's where your mum is right?
26:57and you're
26:58you don't want to stay with me

28:04is that the Benjamin Perry case for?
28:06oh
28:06oh
28:07just arrived from Guadeloupe
28:09the commissioners making us start going through it all
28:33can I speak to you for a minute about the private master commissioner?
28:44of course
28:45of course
28:45I got a couple of missed calls
28:48from my old bus in Jamaica today
28:49and I haven't called him back
28:52because I think I know what it's to do with
28:55he phoned me as well actually
28:59Damond Dyer was acquitted on all costs
29:03he's a free man
29:06I'm sorry
29:08have you told any of the team?
29:13uh
29:14Seb knows I had a boyfriend that I broke up with before I came here
29:18and
29:19I told him that I had messed up on a case
29:23but not that the two were connected

31:16inspector

31:28your keys
31:29let's see if one of these fits
31:31shall we?
31:35your box
31:47cocaine
31:48I'm guessing
31:49around two kilos
31:51you'll be charged for this
31:55look
31:56I'm just a middle man
31:58alright
31:58I don't sell it
31:59I don't buy it
32:01I just make some extra money
32:02moving it from A to B
32:03Giles Parry was on to you
32:05wasn't he?
32:06at first he thought it was the Luska
32:08making those noises beneath his boat
32:13I didn't know he'd moored above me
32:15couldn't stop myself from hitting it
32:17when I came back up
32:18that's what he heard
32:19me banging against the bottom of his boat
32:21and when he went to the same location
32:23a second time
32:25to try and catch sight of it
32:26sir
32:27the Luska
32:28I'm gonna go back again tonight
32:29he discovered what you were up to
32:31that's why he was talking about going to the police
32:34said he might need to speak with him
32:37I didn't know he'd seen me
32:39when I went back to the harbour
32:40I know what you're up to Kelvin
32:43I pleaded with him not to say anything to the police
32:47got to know Giles quite a bit over the years
32:49helped him with his research a couple of times
32:52so I thought he might give me a chance
32:55and?
32:56he told me he'd think about it
33:00but didn't reckon he could ignore it
33:02the next thing he's found floating six miles out of sea dead
33:06I didn't do that to him I swear
33:08this gun of yours
33:10what calibre is it?
33:12it's a nine millimetre
33:13why?
33:14because he found a nine millimetre bullet on Giles Perry's boat
33:17is that a coincidence Mr Mason?
33:19yes it is
33:20I wasn't anywhere near his boat when he died
33:23Mr Mason you were questioned seven years ago
33:27when Giles' son disappeared as a witness
33:30everybody around the harbour was
33:32what's that got to do with anything?
33:34so that also is just a coincidence
33:38yes it is
33:40look if it wasn't you then where were you at 7.30 the night Giles Perry was murdered?
33:45um
33:46I was taking a drink with a guy who works for me
33:49um
33:50a fella named Jackson
33:52you fancy another?
33:54call him ask him he'll tell you
33:55I swear
33:59but
34:01there's something else you all need to know
34:03something that happened before Giles took his boat out
34:07poor guy
34:08I went
34:09to speak with him
34:11to see if he changed his mind about talking with the police
34:16when I turned the corner
34:17he was arguing with someone
34:20Giles called him
34:21Rory
34:22I know your game Rory
34:24Giles said he had evidence of some kind
34:27I didn't hear
34:28what
34:29but he took out this folder
34:30and he gave it to him
34:32now that the Rory fella he didn't seem too happy
34:35he got a bit
34:36physical
34:38he shoved Giles
34:39Giles fell over and hurt himself
34:42then what did you do?
34:44I turned and left
35:00right
35:01right let's get over to the hotel
35:02let's interview our new suspect
35:09sir
35:10with respect
35:11shouldn't we just focus on solving the Giles Perry case right now?
35:15this isn't a cold case investigation
35:17and we've got a new lead now
35:19I just have this feeling the answer lies right here in front of me
35:23if only I knew what it was
35:25okay
35:30I admit we argued
35:32Giles and I
35:33it was more than an argument Mr Lyons
35:36from what we were told
35:37things
35:38might have got a bit physical
35:39but what he was saying upset me
35:42which was what exactly?
35:43no
35:43that I was only with Cara
35:45for her money
35:48Rory only told me about this last night
35:51Giles had
35:52scrabbled together enough money
35:54to
35:55pay a private investigator
35:56to look into Rory
35:57and his
35:58ex
35:59that's what he found
36:03so your previous partner
36:06invested in your business
36:08which went bankrupt
36:11but
36:11she's still chasing you for money
36:13it was a total mess I made
36:16financially
36:17and personally
36:19everything in that file
36:20it's all true
36:22apart from the suggestion
36:23that I'm doing the same again with Cara
36:25because I'm not
36:26I think that's why Giles wouldn't agree to the documentary
36:29he thought that Rory would take the money
36:31but I don't
36:32I don't want a penny
36:33I just want to be with Cara
36:36so what did you follow Mr Perry down to the harbour?
36:39after dinner
36:40because he was being so unforgiving towards Cara
36:42saying that
36:43she was using their son's tragedy
36:45to line her own pockets
36:46I wanted him to know the truth
36:53we're adopting a baby
36:56starting a family
36:57and it's taken all the courage in the world for her to do this
37:00and you told him
37:09all Cara wants is to be a family
37:16I think it threw him
37:18then he picked up his things and got on his boat
37:20and that's the last time you saw him?
37:25Mr Lyons?
37:27Rory?
37:29he phoned me
37:31when I got back to the hotel about half an hour later
37:35he was out at sea
37:38what did he say?
37:40he asked if I loved Cara
37:43like he needed to get it confirmed
37:47and you said?
37:51yes I do
37:53so very much
37:59then he just hung up
38:19so a few minutes before he dies
38:21Giles Perry phones his ex-wife's new partner
38:24to ask if he loves her
38:26that doesn't sound like he was being attacked by a sea monster
38:29or murdered
38:30no
38:30no
38:30it sounds to me like a guy who'd
38:32finally made his peace with the world
38:35which kind of makes me wonder
38:37you know
38:39did Giles Perry take his own life?
38:41but then try to make it look like it was the Lusker that did it
38:44to prove to everyone that it was right all along
38:48that doesn't feel right
38:50anyway that doesn't explain the bullet
38:52why was that there?
38:54so what happened?
38:55he was alone on that boat
38:57six miles out at sea
38:58and our three suspects were all on dry land when he died
39:02how and why
39:05did he end up dead?
39:08maybe these two have the answer
39:11just come straight from the lab
39:13please tell me it's good news
39:15there are no striation marks on the bullet
39:18so they can't match it to Kelvin Mason's gun
39:21same make, same calibre but
39:22hang on
39:23no striation marks at all
39:25said they've been worn away
39:27by
39:29incrustation of marine organisms
39:31corrosion patterns suggest
39:33that bullet has been on the seabed for six to eight years
39:36basically they're just saying the bullet is some sea debris
39:39but that doesn't explain how we ended up on the boat in the first place
39:49did Giles Pire take his own life?
39:52the two liferings there are missing their ropes
39:54Giles Pire worked as a paramedic back in the UK until he moved out here seven years ago
39:59no the Rory fella he didn't seem too happy
40:02got a bit physical
40:04is it to do with Benjamin's disappearance?
40:07I don't know
40:08he asked if I loved Kara
40:11Bingo
40:13I know what happened to Giles
40:14and how he ended up dead like that
40:30sir
40:31we cracked the case
40:33Benjamin Parry's disappearance
40:35I think I know what happened
40:41spot the difference
41:03we have a lot to thank this little bullet for
41:05Well, it's helped us make sense of the present and the past.
41:10In the present, it's what solved the mystery of your ex-husband's death, Miss Smart.
41:15Leading me to finally understand why and how Giles Parry's body was found dead in the water,
41:21looking like the Lusker, the legendary sea monster he'd spent seven years searching for,
41:27had finally caught up with him.
41:28And in terms of the past?
41:31We'll come to that, surely.
41:33Throughout this case, we've worked on the basis that whatever happened to Mr. Parry,
41:39it all happened at the same time while he was out at sea.
41:43But we've now realised that his injuries were actually sustained in two separate locations.
41:51The first injury, the bruising to his stomach and the rupturing of his spleen,
41:56that happened on dry land, down by the harbour, when you and he tussled Rory.
42:03You're saying it was me?
42:04You will be charged with involuntary manslaughter.
42:07We know you didn't mean to kill Giles. Far from it.
42:11However, his subsequent fall from your push caused a serious internal injury.
42:20He just didn't know it at the time.
42:22Oh, my God.
42:24Giles was totally unaware that his life was slipping away.
42:28That's why he walked away from you, got on his boat and went out to sea.
42:34He was probably already a few miles out when he started to feel ill.
42:38Initially, some discomfort in his abdomen, feeling faint, feverish.
42:45But it was only by the time he reached his destination six miles from land that he fully comprehended what
42:53was happening.
42:55We know Giles used to be a paramedic, so it's safe to assume he worked out what was wrong.
43:02That he had minutes left to live.
43:06I'm so sorry.
43:08And if his imminent death wasn't a grim enough prospect,
43:11Mr. Parry also realised that if his body was found on deck,
43:15we would start to question how he was fatally injured.
43:18And the post-mortem would more than likely lead back to the altercation he had with you, Mr. Lyons,
43:23and subsequently some time in prison.
43:26And knowing what you told him about yourself and Kara wanting to start a family,
43:32well, he didn't want to inflict any further suffering on you both.
43:36That's the way he phoned.
43:38And asked Rory if he loved me.
43:40That's why he needed to know, to be sure.
43:44Do you love her?
43:46He could protect you both by making it look like he killed himself.
43:54It was D.S. Thomas here who noticed the ropes were missing from the life rings on Giles' boat.
43:59The two life rings there are missing their ropes, so let's hope no one goes overboard.
44:04I didn't think anything of it at first.
44:06But then when I started to understand what happened that day,
44:10that's when I realised why those ropes weren't there.
44:18And hopefully this call will confirm it.
44:22Yeah.
44:23They found the ropes tied to the boat's spare battery on the seabed.
44:27Okay. Thank you, Sergeant Fletcher.
44:32So, we think Giles knew that if he tied those ropes around his body tightly enough,
44:38then leave red markings.
44:40Friction burn.
44:41And therefore, when his body was found, he hoped this would also explain his internal injuries.
44:47The bruising.
44:48All so it would misdirect from you, Mr. Lyons.
44:53Any similarities to the Luska was a coincidence.
44:57If that's what happened, why was his body found floating on the surface?
45:01Because of this.
45:04As Giles sank to the seabed, by some quirk of fate, he saw this bullet.
45:12Maybe it's got caught under a rock or wedged in some coral.
45:17Well, we can't be sure, but there it was, a single bullet in the same spot his son went missing.
45:27And after his recent discovery of the smuggling that was going on out at sea, not far from the same
45:32spot,
45:33Giles was already beginning to suspect that his son's, your son's disappearance might have been for more sinister reasons.
45:40Is it to do with Benjamin's disappearance?
45:43Maybe.
45:44So we believe he loosened the rope, grabbed the bullet, and allowed himself to float to the surface, determined to
45:54cling to life as long as possible.
45:57But by then, it was already too late for him to climb back on board his boat.
46:01So with his life ebbing away, Giles did one last thing.
46:06One final attempt to let everyone know what he discovered on the seabed.
46:12He threw this bullet onto the deck.
46:15A message from him to us to not give up on his son.
46:19But maybe Ben's killer was still out there.
46:24That's what you meant about the bullet helping with the past.
46:28My son's case.
46:31And has it?
46:40That bullet we found, it turns out it's been sat on the seabed for the last seven years, in the
46:49exact same location, Giles Zankara's son went missing.
46:54It was fired from your gun to kill Benjamin Parry.
47:00But he drowned at sea.
47:02Why are you no saying he was shot?
47:10This photograph was taken the day before Benjamin went missing.
47:16It's of him and his father outside your office.
47:22And this was taken by one of the Guadalupe police officers the day after he disappeared.
47:30Your witness statement is unremarkable in every way, apart from this photograph.
47:38I had to get the magnifying glass out to really notice.
47:44But in this photograph of Benjamin and his father, the wall behind your desk is set farther back from the
47:54window than it is in this photograph of you, where it appears 40 or 50 centimeters closer to it.
48:03Which left me wondering, why, less than 48 hours later, your office had seemingly shrunk.
48:14The only conclusion I could draw was because a new wall had been built.
48:21Leaving Benjamin's body at sea would have meant there was a possibility he could be found.
48:27And if he was, then it would be discovered that he'd been shot.
48:35Whereas if you hid his body, and everybody assumed he drowned at sea, then maybe you'd get away with it.
48:47But where to hide it?
48:50We have a team at your office, as we speak, about to tear down that wall.
48:59So, if I'm wrong about what's been hidden behind it the last seven years, you have nothing to worry about.
49:07But if I am right, now is your chance to start talking.
49:26That morning, seven years ago, it was real early.
49:36But when I got back up with the day's delivery, he was there recording me on his phone for evidence.
49:47I mean, stupid idiot.
49:49Why would you do that?
49:50Because you left me no choice.
49:53I had to act fast.
49:55So, I got the lockbox.
49:57Which you moved to a new location, two miles away, where your smuggling continued,
50:06until Giles Parry discovered what you were doing all these years.
50:11And Benjamin Parry's body?
50:14Well, I took it ashore.
50:22I put him in one of the cases we stole the diving gear.
50:28It's airtight, so...
50:30I spent the whole day getting everything I needed for that wall.
50:36Spent the whole night building it.
50:40And I have lived with it every day since.
50:44Mind how you go?
50:45Uh-uh.
50:46Y'all let me know how it went, huh?
50:48You're with real pirate royalty now, huh?
50:51Knowing that poor boy is stuck behind that wall will haunt me forever.
51:02Galvin Mason, I'm arresting you for the murder of Benjamin Parry.
51:07You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defense if you do not mention my question.
51:13Something that you should leave.
51:21This call is from a person currently in prison in Antigua.
51:28Solomon.
51:29Mervin.
51:30No, I know you said you didn't want anything to do with me no more, but this isn't about me.
51:33It's about Eloise?
51:35I know she ran away from her aunt and came to you because she doesn't like it there.
51:39No, it's because you told her you were innocent and I'd get you out.
51:42You lied to her.
51:43Maybe I was a bit free and easy with the truth, but...
51:46She's there because she needs you.
51:48She doesn't even know me.
51:50She does a bit.
51:51I told her some things.
51:54That you were...
51:56a good man.
51:58Solomon, I can't...
52:02I know I'm not.
52:04I have made a mess of pretty much everything in my life, but that's why I'm asking you this
52:08one thing.
52:09This one fear of her.
52:12Her mom and aunt are cool, but she's her dad's girl, you know?
52:16Me and her...
52:18We're something special.
52:21And her stupid father's got himself stuck in prison, so what?
52:25She really needs her uncle in her life right now.
52:29Because you're the closest thing she's got to me.
52:40So, that's the queen.
52:42She's the one to keep her eye on.
52:45All you have to do is find the lady.
52:56This one.
53:05Wrong again was here all along.
53:25I've had people arrested in Covent Garden for that, you know?
53:28Your dad taught you, I assume.
53:33Look, I'm...
53:35I'm not good at this kind of thing, okay?
53:38Maybe because I've never been an uncle before.
53:44What I'm trying to tell you...
53:45You don't know what you're doing.
53:49When you haven't had a proper family in your life, like I haven't,
53:55you kind of grow up assuming people don't want you or need you.
54:01But when you came to me, I should have been there for you, and I'm sorry that I wasn't.
54:07But if you're up for giving your uncle Merv a second chance, then maybe we can try again.
54:15And I can get to know my niece properly, because however it might have looked, I would really, really like
54:24that.
54:25You want a shake on it?
54:28We can do better than that.
54:32After all this time, I've given up any hope of my son's body being returned to me.
54:37So to stand here knowing my boy will be returned home to England, it means the world to me.
54:45So I'd like to thank the St. Marie Police Force for all their hard work in achieving this.
54:52It's a divert from the station.
54:56Yeah.
55:01But I'd especially like to thank Commissioner Selwyn Patterson for uncovering a truth that no one else was able to.
55:11And we'll be forever grateful.
55:20It's for you.
55:22You're the man.
55:34So, uh, that diverged.
55:35It's for you.
55:37Some guy named Damon?
55:38I mean, set to give him a card when he gets a charm.
56:01I'm going to go eat, Inspector.
56:03Sarge, Inspector's niece.
56:05Catherine invited us all.
56:06It feels like there's a lot to celebrate.
56:09And you can build up a hunger when you're hunting sea monsters, you know?
56:13Sea monsters?
56:14You didn't tell me we're hunting sea monsters.
56:17That's because we weren't.
56:18Well, not all of us anyway.
56:20All right, Eloise, this is Commissioner Patterson, my boss.
56:23It's a pleasure to meet you.
56:26You too.
56:27Right, let's go.
56:28Come on.
56:29You like playing card games, Commissioner Patterson?
56:31All right, let's not start going down that road, young lady.
56:34It demands speak for himself.
56:36As it happens, I do like playing cards.
56:39Yeah, but not the kind of card she wants to play.
56:41Honestly, Commissioner, in fact, everyone, do not play cards with this girl.
56:44Uncle Merv!
56:53Was she just trying to hustle the Commissioner?
56:56Yeah.
56:58Welcome to my family.
57:02You're wondering now what to do.
57:06Now you know this is the end.
57:11You're wondering how you should be
57:16For the way you did behave
57:23The curtain has fallen
57:25Now you're on your own
57:31You won't return again
57:33Forever you must pay
57:38You're wondering now
57:41What to do
57:42Now you know
57:44This is the end
57:46Yes, sir!
57:47Yes, sir!
57:51Yes, sir!
57:53Thank you
57:53Mother
57:54You're jeering
57:56I'm
57:56You're
57:56I'm
