00:00:00You
00:00:30I'm the killer.
00:00:40Yes, because the victim is Ainsley Trask.
00:00:46Ainsley Trask?
00:00:47You're saying she's coming to Mystery Island?
00:00:49That's what I'm saying.
00:00:50Who's Ainsley Trask?
00:00:51Would she be coming alone, or?
00:00:52With her husband.
00:00:54Janie, you cannot be serious.
00:00:56Em, hear me out.
00:00:57Did Ainsley Trask contact you?
00:00:59Time out.
00:01:00Who is Ainsley Trask?
00:01:01Ainsley Trask is the wife of Franklin Trask,
00:01:07who wants to bring several guests to the island for VIP package.
00:01:14Must have a few bucks.
00:01:15Yeah, he's quite well off, yeah.
00:01:17Hang on, is he the guy that...
00:01:19That I was once engaged to marry?
00:01:21Yes, he most certainly is.
00:01:24He runs Trask Global Management,
00:01:27a hedge fund that rivals Carlos in valuation.
00:01:30And Ainsley Trask is a powerhouse corporate attorney
00:01:33who also sits on the board of Trask Global.
00:01:36And they...
00:01:37They just got married last year.
00:01:40And she told me that she's quite keen to come to Mystery Island.
00:01:43Did she offer to play the victim in the murder game?
00:01:45Oh no, that was my idea.
00:01:47As was asking Em to be the killer.
00:01:49Which is perhaps a little on the nose.
00:01:51You think I'd want to kill Franklin's wife?
00:01:54It was my idea to end the engagement.
00:01:56And you haven't been in a long-term relationship since.
00:02:04Jamie, I respectfully request that my personal life
00:02:08not be considered as fodder for our mystery games.
00:02:10I was just brainstorming.
00:02:12Besides, I certainly won't be here when the Trask party attends.
00:02:17Ah.
00:02:19Well Ainsley has made your participation a condition to her package.
00:02:25You're joking.
00:02:26Is this my joking face?
00:02:27Why would she...
00:02:28Insecurity.
00:02:29She might worry that Franklin still carries a torch for you,
00:02:33so she's coming down here in the hopes of extinguishing that torch.
00:02:39Well, she is certainly playing with fire.
00:02:45I'm simply extending Jason's metaphor.
00:02:49Anyway, if you decide to go forward with this proposal,
00:02:54I will plan to be here that weekend as well.
00:02:57Oh, you don't need to.
00:02:58I don't.
00:02:59I want to.
00:03:03At any rate, Janie, we have more murder games to write if you don't mind.
00:03:06Yes.
00:03:07My office is yours.
00:03:08Of course.
00:03:31Jason said you might be out here.
00:03:33You went back to his houseboat?
00:03:35You did. He said you seemed to need some time and space to think.
00:03:39Ah, neither of which you're giving me.
00:03:42I'm a terrible friend, aren't I?
00:03:43The worst. But I have thought Scotch.
00:03:48You know, I only met Franklin a handful of times,
00:03:51but I dare say that Jason is correct about Ainsley wanting to come here
00:03:55to extinguish whatever flames your ex may still have for you.
00:04:01Then I think you're rubbing off on him.
00:04:03Who?
00:04:04Well, Jason, I don't recall him thinking so much about psychology
00:04:09when our paths first crossed.
00:04:11Yeah, I suppose that's true.
00:04:14And I think it's rather chivalrous of him to want to come out here
00:04:17when Franklin comes to Mystery Island.
00:04:20If Franklin comes, you mean?
00:04:22Well, do I? I mean, I don't know if you realise,
00:04:24but you too would do well to extinguish whatever stray embers
00:04:27you may still have for Franklin.
00:04:29There are no embers, Janie. Trust me.
00:04:32Well, oh, good. Then you'll have no problem supporting this venture.
00:04:36I see what you did there.
00:04:38What?
00:04:39Well played.
00:04:43Okay, fine.
00:04:45Tell Mrs. Trust they can come.
00:04:47Shall do.
00:04:48To, uh, torches being extinguished.
00:04:52Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
00:05:18We have an exciting weekend ahead,
00:05:21starting with full VIP conditions for the party of Franklin Trask.
00:05:26Additionally, disguised as a guest and amongst his party
00:05:29will be our COO, Baroness Jane Alcott.
00:05:33Thank you, Bennett.
00:05:35Well, I'm excited about this weekend for a plethora of reasons,
00:05:39but chief among them is that our brilliant game writers,
00:05:42Dr. Priestley and Detective Trent, will also be here,
00:05:45which hasn't happened for a while.
00:05:47The game will begin at the Hidden Hut.
00:05:51And this weekend, Amelia will be playing as herself,
00:05:54but Jason and I will be taking on fictitious roles in the narrative,
00:05:57and I will be disguised as Franklin Trask did meet me several years ago.
00:06:05And I will be playing the role of Professor Loretta Mabry,
00:06:11an archaeologist from California.
00:06:13And Jason will be cast very much against type as Sean Callaghan,
00:06:19a Boston businessman, which is a euphemism for gangster.
00:06:24And our VIP party consists of Vivica Bentley, COO,
00:06:30and Franklin Trask's right-hand woman at Trask Global Hedge Fund.
00:06:34Spencer Trask, a former NFL tight end who was briefly a VP at Trask Global
00:06:40until a month ago.
00:06:43Patricia Colacello, Spencer's model girlfriend.
00:06:47And Mickey Carlisle, a Des Moines schoolteacher,
00:06:50who has been best friends with Ainsley Trask
00:06:52since they were children.
00:06:55And finally, the host of the party, Franklin Trask,
00:06:59a billionaire with a capital B,
00:07:02and his newlywed wife, Ainsley,
00:07:06a successful corporate attorney.
00:07:11For those of you who don't know me,
00:07:13my name is Dr. Amelia Priestley, game author,
00:07:15and on behalf of our CEO, Carlos Del Fuego,
00:07:18I want to welcome you to Mystery Island
00:07:20and allow me to introduce our new new house manager,
00:07:23our major domo,
00:07:25and Simmons, her assistant.
00:07:26Oh, please, call me Bennett.
00:07:28Now, before we repair to the veranda for cocktails,
00:07:31if you could all kindly place your mobile phones
00:07:33into this black box Simmons has.
00:07:35Hang on.
00:07:36I promised my followers hourly updates.
00:07:38Oh, honey, hey, you remember that time
00:07:41when you got food poisoning and didn't post
00:07:42for, like, two days?
00:07:43You actually got more followers.
00:07:45Well, this is like that.
00:07:47Spencer, you're so smart.
00:07:51Take a copy.
00:07:57Amelia, a blast.
00:07:59It's lovely to meet you.
00:08:05It's not something I hear often.
00:08:08Oh, she is more beautiful
00:08:10than you led me to believe, Frankie.
00:08:14And no band on that fourth finger.
00:08:17I cannot believe you're still single.
00:08:19I see you're already playing detective, Mrs. Trask.
00:08:22I am all in.
00:08:23I even offered to bet Frankie
00:08:24I could solve the mystery first, didn't I, my love?
00:08:27You didn't take the bet,
00:08:28but I did.
00:08:30You're ready to pay up, Baines.
00:08:32If both of you wouldn't mind
00:08:33handing in your phones,
00:08:34we may proceed.
00:08:35Well, Spencer...
00:08:40It's, uh,
00:08:41good to see you, Emmy.
00:08:58Ladies and gentlemen,
00:09:11we hope you're all enjoying
00:09:13your first looks at Mystery Island.
00:09:15Your luggage has been taken care of.
00:09:17Bennett has your keys
00:09:18and you'll be shown to your rooms.
00:09:19Once you are all there,
00:09:21you will find the first clue
00:09:22that will begin the game.
00:09:23Can you tell us where the body is?
00:09:25That's all part of the mystery, Ms. Colacello,
00:09:27but I can assure you,
00:09:28among the people assembled here,
00:09:30there is a killer.
00:09:32Delightful.
00:09:33This is already so much fun.
00:09:35Come on, Franklin.
00:09:36Let's not waste time looking at views.
00:09:38I've got a murder to solve.
00:09:39You okay?
00:09:48Fine.
00:09:49You don't look fine.
00:09:50No?
00:09:51How do I look?
00:09:52Understandably addled
00:09:53at being face-to-face
00:09:53with a man you almost married
00:09:54and his abrasive new wife.
00:09:56You think she's abrasive?
00:09:57She makes sandpaper look like silk.
00:10:00Frankly, from one extreme to the other.
00:10:01Are you suggesting I'm not abrasive?
00:10:03Or obnoxious,
00:10:04or entitled,
00:10:05or any of Ains's other
00:10:06in-your-face qualities?
00:10:07Listen, I should tell...
00:10:09I told Vivica I forgot my key.
00:10:10She's already decided
00:10:11to be my partner in crime-solving,
00:10:13and she keeps pumping me
00:10:14with questions about archaeology,
00:10:15and I'm just inventing answers.
00:10:16Jamie, you were supposed to study.
00:10:19You know how I feel about studying, Em?
00:10:21What about you?
00:10:21Have they asked you about being a mobster?
00:10:22When someone asks me what business,
00:10:24I'm going to say,
00:10:24that's my business.
00:10:26Oh, no, that's good.
00:10:28Oh, and I must say,
00:10:29Franklin does seem quite into his wife.
00:10:31Well, he did manage to slip me this.
00:10:34What is it?
00:10:34I have to see you alone.
00:10:38Tell me where and when.
00:10:39I knew it.
00:10:40What did you know?
00:10:42Well, that he is still in love with you.
00:10:43You just said he was attached to his wife.
00:10:46Oh, he's overcompensating.
00:10:47Clearly.
00:10:48When are you going to meet him?
00:10:49I'm not sure that I am.
00:10:50I want one.
00:10:50Well, just to find out...
00:10:51Loretta, did you find your key?
00:10:54Sure did.
00:10:57Mr. Callaghan,
00:10:58you heard what Dr. Priestley said.
00:11:00We all have to unlock our doors
00:11:01to get the game started.
00:11:03Let's do it.
00:11:16You all got here rather quickly.
00:11:18Yeah, the riddle you had us work out
00:11:19wasn't hard.
00:11:20I thought it was.
00:11:22Yeah, you made that clear, Spencer.
00:11:24Once Ainsley pretty brilliantly figured out
00:11:26that each of the boards in our rooms
00:11:27featured a different part of an anagram.
00:11:29I remember having a hand in that deduction, Mickey.
00:11:32Yeah, I guess you helped a little.
00:11:34These detective kits are so adored.
00:11:37Do we get to keep them?
00:11:38Yep.
00:11:39Yay!
00:11:39Okay, we're here at the Hidden Hut,
00:11:41so what next?
00:11:43Twelve years ago,
00:11:44when this island was just the home
00:11:46to Evelyn Murtagh and her son, John,
00:11:48the sommelier on their staff disappeared.
00:11:50His name was Ricardo Rinken.
00:11:53The Murtaghs only realized he was missing
00:11:54when the police came to the island
00:11:56looking for him.
00:11:57Ricardo had been identified
00:11:58as part of a gold smuggling operation.
00:12:00Did you live in the hut?
00:12:01Yes, he did.
00:12:02Ah, you keeping up, Ains?
00:12:05Of course, the police searched his lodgings,
00:12:06but they found no gold.
00:12:08Might you have a better look?
00:12:10Oh, you better believe we will.
00:12:34Some boxes we can go through.
00:12:36Yeah.
00:12:37Go for it.
00:12:38Looks like this is a big floor.
00:12:47Let's try this.
00:12:52Found something.
00:12:54That was fast.
00:12:56Hey, guys, over here.
00:12:57Whoa.
00:13:15Thoughts, Mickey?
00:13:19Mick teaches biology.
00:13:20Well, it's, uh, it's a human...
00:13:23Obviously, it's human, Mick.
00:13:26Yes, Spencer, if you'll let me finish.
00:13:28Human male.
00:13:32Judging by the degree of desiccation,
00:13:34I'd say he's been here for at least 10 years.
00:13:36Oh, so this definitely could be Ricardo Rinken.
00:13:40Yes.
00:13:40Do you know if Rinken was missing his three left fingers?
00:13:44Well, I didn't know him personally, but no, I don't think so.
00:13:48Okay, so maybe this is someone else.
00:13:50Or maybe this is Ricardo Rinken, and he was being interrogated right here.
00:13:55What do you think to that possibility, Sean?
00:13:57Why are you asking me?
00:13:59Well, you just seem like the kind of businessman who's been involved in some tough discussions.
00:14:05There are marks on his ribs.
00:14:08Knife wounds, I'd say.
00:14:10He's probably been stabbed many times.
00:14:14Here's a knife.
00:14:17There might be dry blood on him.
00:14:19Loretta, look at this.
00:14:22How old would you say this is?
00:14:24Oh, well, it isn't an artifact.
00:14:28Right?
00:14:30The double letter R on the hill.
00:14:33So possibly Ricardo's.
00:14:35Stabbed this man here.
00:14:37Or Ricardo was killed with his own knife.
00:14:39Look at this map.
00:14:41It's written in some sort of code.
00:14:43Franklin is brilliant with code.
00:14:47Hey, check it out.
00:14:48Some kind of journal.
00:14:49Like a diary.
00:14:51No, it's more like a log.
00:14:53It's in code, too.
00:14:54Well, maybe Franklin can help with that.
00:14:56He's brilliant with code.
00:14:57I'm brilliant at most things, Ains.
00:14:59I know you are, honey.
00:15:02It would be good to know more about Ricardo.
00:15:04Did he grow up poor?
00:15:06And that's why he turned to crime.
00:15:08Sometimes I think if I weren't beautiful,
00:15:11I would have been a criminal.
00:15:14Man, there's tons of files here.
00:15:16So if we take that and the map back to the house,
00:15:19get a better lookout.
00:15:19What do you think?
00:15:27The letters are clearly jumbled.
00:15:30Look at the dots.
00:15:32This could be a variant cipher.
00:15:33How did you learn to do this?
00:15:37In college, I was bored.
00:15:40That's so you, to learn code, because you're bored.
00:15:47You had such a swift victory locating the hidden room.
00:15:50Are you generously allowing others a chance at a breakthrough?
00:15:54Once you get to know me,
00:15:55you'll see what an absurd question that is.
00:15:58You said Ricardo Rincon was the sommelier?
00:16:02Mm-hmm.
00:16:03Where's the wine cellar?
00:16:06I'll show you.
00:16:10So, if I get to know you better,
00:16:12why would I realise that was an absurd question
00:16:14to think you might want to support the others?
00:16:16You're the psychiatrist.
00:16:18What do you think?
00:16:19I think you play to win.
00:16:21Always have.
00:16:22You know what?
00:16:25I get what Franklin sees in you.
00:16:28If we'd met under different circumstances,
00:16:30we might be good friends.
00:16:31Do you have many good friends?
00:16:34It's not been a forte of mine.
00:16:38I have Mickey,
00:16:39who clearly adores you.
00:16:41But then it is easy to be friends with people
00:16:43from your past who live a thousand miles away.
00:16:47You know what?
00:16:48Franklin warned me you didn't pull your punches.
00:16:50Yeah, I should tell you
00:16:53that the police did search this cellar
00:16:54when Ricardo disappeared,
00:16:56and that was years ago.
00:16:57Well, looks like they clearly missed this switch in here.
00:17:05Well, lookie there.
00:17:10Our boy Ricardo sure liked his hidden rooms.
00:17:14Shall we?
00:17:14Okay.
00:17:20Bingo.
00:17:23I wondered that well, Ainsley.
00:17:36Impressive.
00:17:37I'm not dumb.
00:17:40See these dust patterns on the floor?
00:17:42Some bigger,
00:17:43some not.
00:17:43Someone's been moving the gold out a bit at a time.
00:17:50Are you suggesting a staff member?
00:17:54I don't know.
00:17:55A piece of what's left of Ricardo's smuggled gold
00:18:06and the motive for his murder.
00:18:09Whoever tortured him in that basement
00:18:10below the hut that day
00:18:11must have finally gotten the gold's location out of him.
00:18:15That bar comes from a crate in a secret room
00:18:17off the wine cellar.
00:18:18But, based on dust patterns on the floor,
00:18:22there had to be more than one crate down there at a time.
00:18:25Someone's been moving the gold out gradually.
00:18:27That's what I thought, Frankie.
00:18:29Is she a genius or what?
00:18:33Ready to pay off on our bets, Spencer?
00:18:35Hey, whoa.
00:18:36You haven't won yet.
00:18:37We're supposed to find out who killed Ricardo.
00:18:39Well, Dr. Priestley thinks we should look at staff members.
00:18:43Well, that makes sense.
00:18:44Yeah, but if a staff member killed Ricardo,
00:18:46they would have been able to take the gold all at once.
00:18:49I think our culprit is more likely a person
00:18:52who's come down here several times
00:18:54in the last 12 years,
00:18:55who would have brought an empty suitcase here
00:18:58and taken it back, loaded with stolen gold.
00:19:02Sean, how many times have you been to Mystery Island?
00:19:05About a handful.
00:19:07You fly privately?
00:19:11Nice way to avoid TSA.
00:19:13And what business are you in, exactly?
00:19:18Import-export.
00:19:20So the mob.
00:19:22Can I go to your room and see if you have a,
00:19:24I don't know, an empty suitcase
00:19:26fortified for extra weight?
00:19:33Go for it.
00:19:34Okay, if we track this code to here,
00:19:51and then, Patricia, what have you got?
00:19:53Well, it doesn't look like Morse code.
00:19:54It's the Fibonacci sequence.
00:19:55Oh.
00:19:56Has anyone ever solved a game this quickly?
00:20:01Never on the first day, only once on the second.
00:20:03This is uncanny.
00:20:06Mrs. Strask is quite,
00:20:07well, she's quite something.
00:20:09Yeah.
00:20:10We worked so hard on the Red Herries
00:20:11getting the coding just right.
00:20:22What's the combination, Sean?
00:20:23Well, it wasn't completely empty.
00:20:37Sean is the smuggler,
00:20:38and likely the killer of Ricardo Rincon.
00:20:44Case closed.
00:20:46Well done, Ames.
00:20:47Loretta, are you involved?
00:20:58That's not Loretta.
00:20:59That's Amelia's best friend,
00:21:01Janie Alcott.
00:21:02The COO of Mystery Island.
00:21:04Indeed.
00:21:06Well, it's lovely to meet you all
00:21:07as my, uh, as my true self.
00:21:09And a hearty congratulations to Mrs. Strask
00:21:12for correctly solving the mystery.
00:21:14Impressive, Ayns.
00:21:15The quickest solve yet, I'd say.
00:21:19She is special.
00:21:20Did she get a special prize?
00:21:22Yes, all game winners get a special prize, yes.
00:21:25But allow me to introduce you to Jason Trent,
00:21:29who, along with Amelia,
00:21:31make up our game writing team
00:21:33and took on the role of Sean.
00:21:36It's nice to meet everybody.
00:21:37Clever narrative, you two.
00:21:38We thought so.
00:21:42Why don't we all meet on the veranda
00:21:44for a celebratory drink?
00:21:45Sounds good.
00:21:46Yes?
00:21:46Oh, and you were all getting caught up
00:22:00in maps and codes,
00:22:01and I just thought,
00:22:03well, you all know the expression
00:22:05follow the money.
00:22:05I'm not talking about you money.
00:22:08Huh.
00:22:09Forgive me, I don't follow.
00:22:12Ainsley's nickname for me is money
00:22:13because it's what I look after for Franklin.
00:22:16Anyway,
00:22:18Sean's big mistake
00:22:20was not figuring out a way
00:22:21all those years ago
00:22:22how to take the gold in one fell swoop.
00:22:25I mean,
00:22:26if you're going to rob somebody,
00:22:27don't do it a little bit at a time.
00:22:29Don't you agree, money?
00:22:30Too true, Ainsley.
00:22:32Anyway, Janie,
00:22:33about that partial refund.
00:22:35Ainsley,
00:22:36come on, please.
00:22:38There's still plenty to do
00:22:39on this gorgeous island this weekend.
00:22:41In fact, Janie,
00:22:43I'm so glad you're here.
00:22:44Now that the game is finished,
00:22:45I'd love to chat to you
00:22:46about a potential investment
00:22:47in this enterprise.
00:22:49What, from you?
00:22:50From Trash Global.
00:22:52I believe you know
00:22:53one of my board members,
00:22:55Piper Plunkett?
00:22:56Piper, yes.
00:22:57She's my second cousin
00:22:58on my mother's side.
00:23:00Well, how lovely.
00:23:02Gosh, I haven't seen her
00:23:03since her father's third wedding.
00:23:05Ladies and gentlemen,
00:23:07dinner will be served
00:23:07in the dining room
00:23:08in one hour.
00:23:09A gentle reminder
00:23:10that we require all guests
00:23:12to be in formal wear
00:23:13for this evening's meal.
00:23:15Come on, babe.
00:23:16Let's go get ready.
00:23:23Well, that was quite unexpected.
00:23:25Ainsley solving the game
00:23:26in record time?
00:23:27No, no.
00:23:27Piper, my second cousin,
00:23:29being on Franklin's board.
00:23:31And, yes, Ainsley as well.
00:23:34Janie,
00:23:34I want to caution you
00:23:36in the strongest language possible
00:23:37not to entertain the idea
00:23:39of bringing these people
00:23:40into the company.
00:23:41Em, it isn't these people.
00:23:43It's a billion-dollar hedge fund.
00:23:45And I know it's managed
00:23:47by Franklin.
00:23:48Franklin isn't my problem.
00:23:49It's his wife.
00:23:51Yeah, I realise
00:23:52she can be brass.
00:23:53I don't care about that.
00:23:54I care about how she managed
00:23:56to solve our mystery
00:23:57so quickly.
00:23:57Okay.
00:24:00And I intend to find out.
00:24:04She's furious.
00:24:09Yes, well spotted, Jason.
00:24:18Ladies and gentlemen,
00:24:19please be seated.
00:24:34What are you doing?
00:24:56Meeting you,
00:24:57like you asked.
00:24:58Why didn't you use
00:24:58the normal path?
00:25:00Well, I didn't want people
00:25:01to know where I was going.
00:25:03Right.
00:25:05Sorry for being startled.
00:25:07Sorry for startling you.
00:25:10And thanks for the meet.
00:25:13Well, you can thank Ainsley
00:25:14for that.
00:25:16I don't follow.
00:25:18Is she a big mystery fan?
00:25:20Constantly reading
00:25:21whodunits?
00:25:23No, not at all.
00:25:26But, I mean,
00:25:26I didn't come here
00:25:27to talk about Ainsley.
00:25:29I came here because
00:25:30I made a huge mistake.
00:25:33Franklin,
00:25:33if this is about us...
00:25:34Of course it's about us,
00:25:35I mean.
00:25:37Look, I, um...
00:25:40I think I married Ainsley
00:25:41because I wanted to prove
00:25:43to myself
00:25:43that I still wasn't
00:25:44in love with you.
00:25:46The joke's on me.
00:25:50Because...
00:25:50Guess what?
00:25:52I'm still in love with you.
00:25:57I knew it.
00:26:02Wish I could say
00:26:03I was surprised.
00:26:07Ainsley, hang on.
00:26:11You okay?
00:26:13Not really.
00:26:15But we should follow them.
00:26:17You're being unreasonable!
00:26:19Don't gaslight me, Franklin.
00:26:20I know what I heard.
00:26:22What did you hear?
00:26:23My husband
00:26:24professing his love
00:26:26for his ex.
00:26:28I arranged this whole vacation
00:26:29to test him
00:26:30and you failed.
00:26:32You're a cheat!
00:26:34And you?
00:26:35Well, you were just
00:26:36ready to fall back
00:26:37into his arms.
00:26:38I did nothing of the sort.
00:26:40And there was no cheating
00:26:41going on.
00:26:41That's you projecting
00:26:42your own behavior.
00:26:43What's that supposed to mean?
00:26:44You don't like whodunits,
00:26:46yet you solved our game
00:26:47in record time.
00:26:47It's called being smart,
00:26:49which I thought you were.
00:26:51Ainsley, please,
00:26:52don't do this.
00:26:53I'm doing what needs
00:26:54to be done, money.
00:26:55I would like my own room
00:26:56tonight, please,
00:26:57and I'll be leaving
00:26:58tomorrow morning.
00:26:59When I get back to New York,
00:27:00I'll be filing for divorce.
00:27:01And I will bleed you dry.
00:27:03Thanks, buddy.
00:27:04I should go check on Ains.
00:27:12I'm sure she'll be back
00:27:27to her usual self
00:27:28by tomorrow.
00:27:30Oh, chap,
00:27:31I hate to break it to you.
00:27:32This is her real self.
00:27:36You've never liked her.
00:27:37And you're in love with her.
00:27:38What's that supposed to mean?
00:27:39Oh, please stop arguing.
00:27:41This isn't helping anyone.
00:27:49Bennett,
00:27:50is it possible
00:27:51one of your staff
00:27:51shared details
00:27:52of the mystery script
00:27:53with Ainsley?
00:27:54Oh, I do hope not.
00:27:56I'll start interviewing
00:27:57them immediately.
00:28:00I'd be shocked
00:28:00if one of the staff
00:28:01sold us out like this.
00:28:03I don't like the idea either,
00:28:04but I am certain
00:28:05Ainsley cheated.
00:28:06I will see what Bennett finds.
00:28:08In the meantime,
00:28:08I think we should all
00:28:09get some sleep.
00:28:09I don't think I'll ever
00:28:14get used to
00:28:15these shifting signs
00:28:18As time
00:28:19falls through
00:28:21my hands
00:28:23And the ground
00:28:28is giving way
00:28:29despite my best laid plans
00:28:32It's all
00:28:34out of
00:28:36my hands
00:28:38unraveling
00:28:42Sorry to wake you, Amy,
00:29:05but Ainsley's not in her room.
00:29:06I can't find her anywhere.
00:29:08Are you sure
00:29:09she's not
00:29:10already down at the dock
00:29:11waiting for the boat?
00:29:12No, she's not.
00:29:13Her bags are still
00:29:14in the room
00:29:14and I just don't...
00:29:15Franklin,
00:29:16you go for breakfast.
00:29:17We will swap this.
00:29:18Okay.
00:29:19Okay, thank you.
00:29:21Have you told
00:29:22Jenny and Jason?
00:29:23Yes.
00:29:24They're meeting
00:29:24at her room
00:29:25and I've got the staff
00:29:25searching the grounds.
00:29:26Okay.
00:29:27Let me get dressed
00:29:28and I'll meet them there.
00:29:34Toiletry's
00:29:34in the bathroom.
00:29:37And the bed's unmade
00:29:38so clearly
00:29:39she slept here.
00:29:41Didn't Ainsley
00:29:41have four pieces
00:29:43of luggage?
00:29:47And now there's
00:29:48only three.
00:29:49You're spotted, Em.
00:29:50We've searched
00:29:51every room
00:29:52and communal area
00:29:53in the mansion
00:29:54as well as
00:29:54the nearby grounds.
00:29:56There's no sign of her.
00:29:58We could press on
00:29:59to other parts
00:29:59of the resort.
00:30:00Let's do that.
00:30:00I want to check
00:30:01places we know
00:30:02Ainsley's bed.
00:30:03Start in the hidden hut
00:30:04and the wine cellar.
00:30:21Well,
00:30:21everything here
00:30:23is as we left it.
00:30:24Should we check
00:30:25the basement?
00:30:25She's dead.
00:30:49She's dead.
00:30:49The carotid park tree
00:31:02was cut.
00:31:03Kayla was angry.
00:31:04Or thorough.
00:31:06Time of death.
00:31:07All park
00:31:08between 12 and 2.
00:31:11Her hand.
00:31:12Yeah,
00:31:13I saw that.
00:31:14It looks like an S.
00:31:16With the guest,
00:31:17there's Spencer.
00:31:17And the only
00:31:18staff member
00:31:19is Simmons.
00:31:20I'll go and check
00:31:21the security camera
00:31:22and see what
00:31:22his movements were.
00:31:24Ray and I
00:31:25will go tell Franklin.
00:31:33Franklin,
00:31:34when I'm not writing
00:31:34murder games
00:31:35for Mystery Island,
00:31:36I'm a detective
00:31:36on the mainland.
00:31:37This is Ray Romero,
00:31:38the chief of police.
00:31:39I'm grateful to you both.
00:31:41Do you have any leads?
00:31:43I regret to inform you,
00:31:44Mr. Trash,
00:31:45that your wife
00:31:47was murdered last night.
00:31:50Murdered?
00:31:52Are you sure?
00:31:54Quite sure, sir.
00:31:56I don't, um,
00:31:57what happened?
00:31:59That's what we intend
00:32:00to find out.
00:32:02Where was she?
00:32:03The hidden hut.
00:32:04She was killed sometime
00:32:05between midnight and 2 a.m.
00:32:09This is, um...
00:32:10It's a lot to take in,
00:32:11I know.
00:32:11Look, I, um,
00:32:13I realize
00:32:13everyone in this room
00:32:15is thinking about
00:32:16what happened
00:32:16between Ainsley
00:32:17and I last night.
00:32:19And I want to be clear.
00:32:20I loved Ainsley.
00:32:23And absolutely
00:32:24would have given her
00:32:24the divorce
00:32:25if that's what
00:32:25she really wanted.
00:32:29And my guests
00:32:29and I will, um,
00:32:30will stay here
00:32:31on this island
00:32:31until the kill
00:32:32has been arrested.
00:32:33We appreciate
00:32:33that cooperation, sir.
00:32:37I need to interview
00:32:38everyone here.
00:32:38Starting with Spencer?
00:32:40You, actually.
00:32:44Everyone,
00:32:44could I have
00:32:44your attention, please?
00:32:46I'm a detective
00:32:46and this is Ray Romero,
00:32:47the chief of police.
00:32:49I regret to inform you
00:32:50that Ainsley's been killed.
00:32:55Oh, no.
00:32:56Okay, Amelia.
00:33:04To explain what we...
00:33:05I expect Jason
00:33:05told you
00:33:06that I was engaged
00:33:07to Franklin
00:33:07nearly seven years ago
00:33:08and Franklin gave me
00:33:09a note upon arriving here
00:33:10insisting we meet
00:33:12in private
00:33:12that he told me
00:33:13last night
00:33:14that he was still
00:33:14in love with me
00:33:15which Ainsley heard
00:33:16as did Jason
00:33:17and this led
00:33:18to the row
00:33:18that the Trasks had,
00:33:19her threats of divorce,
00:33:20et cetera, et cetera.
00:33:21Yes,
00:33:22so you understand.
00:33:23I do.
00:33:23And as Jason also knows,
00:33:25I was adamantly opposed
00:33:26to Franklin and his party
00:33:27coming to this island.
00:33:28It was me
00:33:29who ended our engagement.
00:33:31Why?
00:33:36It was a mistake.
00:33:37I was in love
00:33:38with Franklin at first
00:33:39but I wasn't willing
00:33:41to move to New York
00:33:42and he certainly
00:33:42wasn't going to go to London
00:33:43so we were long distance
00:33:44for nearly a year
00:33:45and then he
00:33:46suddenly proposed
00:33:48promising to relocate
00:33:50his business to London
00:33:51and I accepted.
00:33:55But as the months passed
00:33:56it became clear
00:33:57I was just another deal
00:33:58he needed to close
00:33:59so I ended it.
00:34:01So why did you meet
00:34:03with him in secret
00:34:04down on the beach?
00:34:06Because I believe
00:34:07Ainsley cheated at the game
00:34:08and I had some questions
00:34:10I wanted to ask Franklin
00:34:11to help me prove it.
00:34:12Did you succeed?
00:34:14I learned she's not
00:34:15in the least bit
00:34:16interested in whodunnits.
00:34:17What do you think
00:34:21about this theory?
00:34:23I think Amelia's right.
00:34:27And where were you
00:34:28between midnight
00:34:29and 2am?
00:34:30Asleep.
00:34:32I had an aperitif
00:34:34in my room
00:34:34to take the edge off
00:34:36and it did its job
00:34:37rather thoroughly.
00:34:39Okay.
00:34:40Well
00:34:40thank you Amelia.
00:34:42I hope you understand
00:34:44that we can't
00:34:45at this time
00:34:46include you
00:34:46on this side of the table.
00:34:49Could you ask
00:34:50Franklin to join us?
00:34:51Of course.
00:35:01I had an aperitif
00:35:02last night as well
00:35:03and it did quite
00:35:04a number on me.
00:35:05I passed out
00:35:06in the chair
00:35:07in my room.
00:35:07I don't know
00:35:08why anyone
00:35:08would want to drug us
00:35:09but I need to order
00:35:10a few tox screens.
00:35:13Sure.
00:35:19Franklin
00:35:19the police would like
00:35:21to talk to you
00:35:21in the dining room.
00:35:25Cheney.
00:35:28What is it?
00:35:29I think I'm being
00:35:29treated as a suspect.
00:35:31Why is of course
00:35:32I assumed so
00:35:32given them questioning
00:35:33what you do.
00:35:34Jealousy is a powerful
00:35:35motive for murder.
00:35:35I haven't seen Franklin
00:35:37in seven years.
00:35:38And the first day
00:35:38that you do
00:35:39you're exchanging
00:35:39love declarations
00:35:40on the beach.
00:35:41Not exchanging
00:35:42it was him to me.
00:35:43Oh no I'm darling
00:35:43I don't think
00:35:44in a million years
00:35:44you had anything
00:35:45to do with Ainsley's murder.
00:35:46I'm just positing
00:35:47the kind of hypotheticals
00:35:48Jason is.
00:35:49Oh Jason
00:35:50who knows me.
00:35:51Yes and I don't think
00:35:52for a moment
00:35:53that Jason thinks
00:35:53you're the suspect either
00:35:54but he has to do
00:35:56his due diligence
00:35:57as a detective.
00:35:58Wouldn't you agree?
00:35:59Yes of course.
00:36:00I did tell Ray
00:36:02about my suspicions
00:36:03that Ainsley cheated
00:36:04but I'm not sure
00:36:06he's convinced
00:36:06it's connected
00:36:07to her murder
00:36:07and won't pursue it.
00:36:11Then we shall.
00:36:13So there are some
00:36:14motives among these guests
00:36:15for perhaps wanting
00:36:16Ainsley dead.
00:36:17Yes.
00:36:18Starting with her husband
00:36:19who hardly convinced me
00:36:20with his stoic speech.
00:36:21Before we go there
00:36:22we should think about
00:36:23how Ainsley cheated.
00:36:24I know after her interviews
00:36:26Bennett said her staff
00:36:27were above reproach
00:36:28but I would
00:36:30kind of like
00:36:32to search their rooms.
00:36:34Well Em
00:36:34I'm COO
00:36:35that's corporate property.
00:36:58Jamie.
00:37:01Ainsley's full suitcase.
00:37:11It appears my theory
00:37:13was correct.
00:37:13$50,000.
00:37:27And this is likely
00:37:28just the payout.
00:37:29I bet Ainsley gave
00:37:30the same amount
00:37:30in advance.
00:37:32What are you doing?
00:37:39Get Jason.
00:37:40Jason?
00:37:47Jason?
00:37:59Amelia.
00:38:00Amelia, wake up.
00:38:04Hey.
00:38:06Hey.
00:38:07What's going on?
00:38:10Janie came running
00:38:11to tell me
00:38:12that you were chasing
00:38:12Simmons.
00:38:14Right.
00:38:16Oh.
00:38:17Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:38:18Lay back.
00:38:21Yeah.
00:38:21I think that might be best.
00:38:23You've got quite a knot
00:38:24on the back of your head.
00:38:26Did you see Simmons?
00:38:28Oh, he must have been
00:38:28waiting for me.
00:38:30Got behind me.
00:38:32We'll find him.
00:38:33We need to get you
00:38:33to the infirmary.
00:38:34I can carry you.
00:38:35Okay.
00:38:37Oh.
00:38:37Hang on.
00:38:43Thank you
00:38:44for being here.
00:38:47Of course.
00:38:48And listen,
00:38:49I'm sorry we had
00:38:50to grill you
00:38:50like that earlier.
00:38:52I'm sorry
00:38:52if I was a bit short
00:38:53with you.
00:38:54More with Ray.
00:38:58Do you really think
00:38:59I murdered
00:39:00the wife of my ex?
00:39:02Do you really think
00:39:02I think you did?
00:39:04No.
00:39:05I know you're
00:39:05just doing your job.
00:39:06Do you have conflicted
00:39:10feelings about Franklin?
00:39:12I do.
00:39:14The feelings in conflict
00:39:15are a great deal
00:39:17of pity,
00:39:18a small amount
00:39:18of nostalgia
00:39:19and confusion
00:39:20at how I ever
00:39:22could have said yes
00:39:22to marrying him.
00:39:23I can think of a few reasons
00:39:25someone would marry the guy
00:39:26but I don't think
00:39:28you care about those reasons.
00:39:29You know me well.
00:39:30I think I can stand up now.
00:39:34I think I can stand up now.
00:39:34Go slow.
00:39:40Oh,
00:39:40um,
00:39:41the suitcase and money
00:39:42in Simmons' room.
00:39:43Janie and Ray
00:39:44are taking care of that.
00:39:45I was thinking
00:39:45it was the payout.
00:39:46We'll definitely check
00:39:47to see if Simmons
00:39:48opened an offshore account
00:39:49in the last month
00:39:49where Ainsley
00:39:50could have wired
00:39:50the advance
00:39:51but it looks like
00:39:52you were right.
00:39:53She's so competitive
00:39:54she spent a hundred grand
00:39:55to win a game.
00:39:56I think it's more
00:39:56than competition.
00:39:57I think she wanted
00:39:58to prove to Franklin
00:39:59that she's smarter than me.
00:40:00I think she knew
00:40:01Franklin was still
00:40:02in love with you
00:40:02and if she spent
00:40:03all that money
00:40:04just to hear him
00:40:04declare that love to you
00:40:05then maybe she went
00:40:07to Simmons
00:40:07and asked for her money back.
00:40:08And perhaps he refused.
00:40:09She threatened him
00:40:10and he killed her.
00:40:12Are you going to bring
00:40:12more police over
00:40:13to search for him?
00:40:14I think a better use
00:40:15of manpower
00:40:15is to shut down the dock
00:40:16so he can't get off
00:40:17the island.
00:40:18He didn't plan for this.
00:40:20He'll get hungry
00:40:20and thirsty
00:40:21sooner than surface.
00:40:23But now I don't know
00:40:24why anyone drugged
00:40:24our aperitif.
00:40:26Our aperitifs?
00:40:26Yeah.
00:40:27I had mine last night.
00:40:28Same reaction.
00:40:29I fell asleep
00:40:30way too fast.
00:40:31I have Ray running
00:40:31tox cream.
00:40:33Ready to head back?
00:40:34Get a few more
00:40:35suspects to interview.
00:40:36I'm happy to help
00:40:37with that.
00:40:38I'm sure you are
00:40:39but technically
00:40:39you're still a suspect.
00:40:41Of course.
00:40:42So if you and Janie
00:40:42want to continue
00:40:43your investigation...
00:40:45We just might.
00:40:46Just don't chase anyone
00:40:47into the jungle, okay?
00:40:49Look straight ahead.
00:40:53Hello?
00:41:00Good news is
00:41:01you're not concussed.
00:41:05For the headache.
00:41:07And you need to rest.
00:41:09Thank you, Rosie.
00:41:09You're welcome.
00:41:12So, to your room.
00:41:14Oh, I'm not resting.
00:41:15There's a killer among us.
00:41:17But Simmons.
00:41:19I'm not convinced
00:41:20it was him.
00:41:22So.
00:41:23So.
00:41:25Jason and Ray
00:41:26are doing interviews.
00:41:27We should do our own.
00:41:28Aren't we?
00:41:31Look,
00:41:32I watch a lot of true crime.
00:41:34And I know the husband
00:41:35is always suspect
00:41:36numero uno.
00:41:37Okay, but I'm telling you
00:41:38Franklin isn't a good guy,
00:41:39okay?
00:41:40He's a great guy.
00:41:41Yet,
00:41:42you left his company
00:41:43a month ago.
00:41:45That had nothing
00:41:45to do with Franklin, man.
00:41:49What'd I have to do with?
00:41:50Ainsley!
00:41:51She wanted me out.
00:41:52So I got out.
00:41:54Look,
00:41:55before you go thinking
00:41:55that's a motive,
00:41:56I make a ton of money
00:41:57in my endorsements,
00:41:58and now I got more time
00:41:58for Patricia,
00:41:59so it's all good.
00:42:00Why would Ainsley
00:42:00want you out?
00:42:01I mean,
00:42:02look,
00:42:03I don't want to speak ill
00:42:03about the dead,
00:42:04okay?
00:42:06But she was
00:42:06a controlling monster.
00:42:09But look,
00:42:10the NFL's full of people
00:42:11like her, okay?
00:42:11No biggie.
00:42:12Where were you
00:42:13between midnight
00:42:13and 2 a.m.?
00:42:14Passed out.
00:42:15Me and Patricia both.
00:42:16Jet lag, I guess.
00:42:18Hey, listen.
00:42:19Frankie said that Ainsley
00:42:20paid up a member of staff
00:42:21to cheat the game.
00:42:23Was it that Simmons guy?
00:42:24How would you think that?
00:42:26Well, you know,
00:42:26suddenly he's not around.
00:42:28Bet he's got to be
00:42:29top of the suspect list, right?
00:42:40Franklin?
00:42:42How are you doing?
00:42:46Honestly,
00:42:47we wrung out.
00:42:49Your detective friend
00:42:50asked me about a prenup,
00:42:52which of course we had.
00:42:53Ainsley was bluffing
00:42:54when she threatened
00:42:55to believe me financially
00:42:56in a divorce.
00:42:57Is that typical of her?
00:42:59Bluffing?
00:43:00Well, she's a corporate lawyer.
00:43:01It's what she does.
00:43:03Did.
00:43:05Every day.
00:43:05I'm sorry.
00:43:11No, don't apologize.
00:43:12Please.
00:43:13It's just I know I told you
00:43:14my marriage was a mistake.
00:43:17That doesn't mean
00:43:17I didn't care about her.
00:43:20And it's hard not to think
00:43:21that one of the people
00:43:21I brought here
00:43:22is responsible.
00:43:24Franklin,
00:43:24it seems that Em
00:43:27was correct.
00:43:29Ainsley was cheating
00:43:29at the game.
00:43:30I was thinking about that.
00:43:32Ainsley came down here
00:43:33to the mainland
00:43:33a few weeks ago
00:43:34supposedly to see a client,
00:43:36but now I'm not sure.
00:43:38It does appear
00:43:38that she was paying
00:43:39one of our staff
00:43:40quite a lot of money.
00:43:41Well, there you go.
00:43:44Why?
00:43:45Why would she want
00:43:46to win so badly?
00:43:47To humiliate
00:43:48the game's author?
00:43:49And humiliate me?
00:43:51She's been trying to do that
00:43:52since my honeymoon was over.
00:43:54That's why she brought
00:43:55Mickey with us.
00:43:56I'm pretty sure
00:43:57they're having an affair.
00:43:58I told Detective Trent.
00:44:01Where is Mickey?
00:44:02Uh, I think he's just
00:44:04gone to talk
00:44:04to the detectives.
00:44:06Thanks, Franklin.
00:44:11I'm not comfortable
00:44:15breaking into a guest room.
00:44:17You are not breaking in.
00:44:23We're just going in there
00:44:24to retrieve my property.
00:44:30I can't.
00:44:31Well, I'm going in.
00:44:38Ainsley and I
00:44:39were high school sweethearts.
00:44:40We split up
00:44:41freshman year of college.
00:44:43It was her idea.
00:44:44And I hadn't seen her
00:44:45for years
00:44:46until our class reunion
00:44:47last year.
00:44:48Then a month after that,
00:44:49I was in New York
00:44:50for a conference
00:44:50and we connected.
00:44:52She just got back
00:44:52from her honeymoon.
00:44:54How did she see?
00:44:55Usual.
00:44:56Intense.
00:44:58Driven.
00:44:59Funny.
00:45:00Like,
00:45:01ten steps ahead
00:45:02of everyone else.
00:45:03How many times
00:45:04did you see her
00:45:05after that?
00:45:06A few.
00:45:09And your relationship
00:45:10was strictly platonic.
00:45:13Why would you ask that?
00:45:15Ainsley is...
00:45:17was totally committed
00:45:20to her husband.
00:45:21She seems
00:45:21so ready to divorce him.
00:45:26Ains was the president
00:45:27of the theater club
00:45:28in high school.
00:45:30She's a drama queen.
00:45:31I figured she and Franklin
00:45:33would kiss and make up.
00:45:34Where were you last night
00:45:36between midnight and two?
00:45:38I went to my room
00:45:39around eleven.
00:45:40I tried to finish my book
00:45:41but I nodded off
00:45:42pretty fast.
00:45:47Thank you, Mickey.
00:45:49Vivica,
00:45:50can we chat?
00:45:51Of course, Detective.
00:45:53I was hoping there'd be a
00:46:15tranche of love letters
00:46:16between him and Ainsley.
00:46:17Well, this isn't that
00:46:24but it is quite curious.
00:46:27John's book?
00:46:29He probably borrowed it
00:46:30from our library.
00:46:31No, this is Mickey's
00:46:31personal copy.
00:46:33And it's quite annotated.
00:46:34I don't know.
00:47:04We need to follow him. He's going to commit another murder.
00:47:32I'm just devastated. I adored Ainsley. She was a real ally on the company board.
00:47:40Were you friends outside of work?
00:47:44But she had that nickname for you.
00:47:47Money?
00:47:50Detective, you must be assuming that that is derogatory.
00:47:54In our world, it's really quite the compliment.
00:47:57Can you imagine why anyone would want to do this to her?
00:48:00Oh...
00:48:04I'm sorry to ask, but...
00:48:06Where were you between midnight and two?
00:48:09Ah...
00:48:11I was sleeping. I rarely make you past 11.
00:48:14I didn't press.
00:48:24No, it's not. It's okay.
00:48:26No, it's not. It's okay.
00:48:27No, it's not okay.
00:48:28He's dead. He's stuck on his island. I...
00:48:30That way.
00:48:31No, I am old. I'm old.
00:48:32I'm old. I'm old.
00:48:33I've got Mickey.
00:48:34I've got Evica.
00:48:35I've got Mickey.
00:48:36I've got Evica.
00:48:37I've got Evica.
00:48:38I've got Evica.
00:48:39I've got Evica.
00:48:40I've got Evica.
00:48:41I've got Mickey.
00:48:42I've got Evica.
00:48:43I've got Mickey.
00:48:44I've got Evica.
00:48:45I've got Evica.
00:48:58I've got Evica.
00:49:00I've got Evica.
00:49:09Hello?
00:49:17Is there anyone in there?
00:49:20Can I help you?
00:49:21I wanted to turn this in.
00:49:25You make sure it's not the murder weapon.
00:49:27We'll take a look.
00:50:10I tried being a good sister to her, but she's zero time for me.
00:50:14So, whatever, I moved on.
00:50:16Were you upset when she forced Spencer out of Franklin's company?
00:50:19How did Spencer tell you that?
00:50:22Who runs the company?
00:50:24So you're saying Franklin forced out his own brother?
00:50:26I'm saying he brought Spencer in there because NFL players are a big deal.
00:50:31They get people excited, right?
00:50:32Which is what Spencer was doing.
00:50:34But then Franklin comes to Spencer and says he believes he's trying to edge Franklin out of his own company.
00:50:39Which Spencer was totally not doing, obviously.
00:50:42Even though he's totally smart and could do it.
00:50:44And Spencer would maybe be upset with me for telling you this.
00:50:48But I was furious with Franklin for a minute there.
00:50:51I mean, I could have killed him.
00:50:53Literally.
00:50:54But I calmed down.
00:50:57Spencer always says family first.
00:50:59So, anyway, all good now.
00:51:02Except Ainsley being murdered.
00:51:05Except that.
00:51:05Okay.
00:51:06Let's go.
00:51:06Let's go.
00:51:07Let's go.
00:51:07Let's go.
00:51:28Let's go.
00:51:28There you are.
00:51:37So, I tailed Vivica back here where she met up with Franklin and gave him a very familiar shoulder massage.
00:51:45How did he receive it?
00:51:47Quite comfortably.
00:51:49And then he poured them some wine and they went up to his room.
00:51:53I noticed them being comfortable yesterday.
00:51:56Hey, what about Mickey?
00:51:57Well, he went to the Hidden Heart.
00:52:00What, are you joking?
00:52:02Isn't that where the forensics people are?
00:52:04Yes, they are. Which is why he went. He turned in.
00:52:09He turned in the knife.
00:52:11The one who threatened Vivica with.
00:52:14I'm not sure he was threatening her.
00:52:17He most certainly was threatening her.
00:52:20Think about his body language.
00:52:22He backed away from her. He held the knife low and close to himself and then he bolted from her.
00:52:27After shouting that she owed him.
00:52:29He actually said, I'm owed.
00:52:31Which, not to be a language obsessive, doesn't necessarily mean Vivica's the one who owes him whatever he feels like he's owed.
00:52:37Fair point.
00:52:39Miss Criminal Psychiatrist.
00:52:41Dr. Miss Criminal Psychiatrist, please.
00:52:44Okay, so he handed in the knife and then what?
00:52:49He went to the beach and looked at the ocean.
00:52:51Is he still there?
00:52:53I don't know.
00:52:54While I was watching him I had a thought so I went and got his murder book and look what I found among the annotations.
00:53:03Even an amateur, a person utterly unskilled at murder, can walk up to a seated person from behind with a sharp four inch blade and cut their carotid artery as easy as slicing a lemon.
00:53:12Ray said that Ainsley's carotid artery is what the killer cut.
00:53:18But this is hardly proof we can take to Jason.
00:53:22Yeah, you're right.
00:53:24We need to get back to our murder board and think this all through.
00:53:27Now I know it's a cliché but before Mickey's book I was thinking that Franklin was the prime suspect and his motive was to get out of his marriage.
00:53:45And do you think he's capable of murder?
00:53:48Every human being is capable of murder given the right circumstances but I'm not sure these are them for Franklin.
00:53:53Right, okay so pivoting to our second suspect, Mickey, who was studying how to cut a carotid artery.
00:54:02What if he was still in love with Ainsley the same way that Franklin is still in love with you?
00:54:07Ainsley threatens divorce, Mickey goes to Ainsley, professes his love.
00:54:11But she rejects him and he kills her.
00:54:14Extreme but possible. We also need to know what he's owed.
00:54:17Oh definitely.
00:54:18And Spencer who is clear on his dislike of Ainsley is our third suspect.
00:54:23And fourth suspect...
00:54:25Is obviously Simmons.
00:54:27He was being paid by Ainsley to help her cheat.
00:54:32Maybe she didn't pay him the second half after everything blew up and he killed her for the money.
00:54:39That's a big maybe.
00:54:40We also know he was in his room from midnight until 2am.
00:54:44Speaking of which, did I tell you I fell asleep crazy fast last night?
00:54:48Apparently Jason did too so he's running toxicology on the aperitif syndrome.
00:54:51Oh come on, I also fell asleep uncommonly early, having drunk my aperitif.
00:54:55Really?
00:54:57Yes, what if this was the murderer putting the three investigative geniuses on the island out of commission so that the murder could be committed?
00:55:02Well Jason needs to test my aperitif as well.
00:55:06Okay, well someone would have had to have stolen a passkey from housekeeping.
00:55:10That's hardly impossible.
00:55:11And gotten into our rooms yesterday evening to spike the drinks.
00:55:15Oh.
00:55:21Janey, Ray and I are ready to talk to you.
00:55:24Oh yes, of course.
00:55:25I'm making headway?
00:55:26And some.
00:55:27Anything you can share?
00:55:29Nothing I can share.
00:55:30Of course.
00:55:31I'm glad you all are doing this and not chasing people through the jungle.
00:55:35Janey thinks her drink might have been spiked too.
00:55:37The aperitif?
00:55:38Yes.
00:55:39We're testing the residue from all the glasses.
00:55:42Janey.
00:55:46You back him?
00:56:01Are you busy?
00:56:02Just get out the bath.
00:56:03Come on in.
00:56:04I'll just pop to the loo while you get dressed.
00:56:06I'll just pop to the loo while you get dressed.
00:56:13Oh-
00:56:17Let's go.
00:56:47So, what's up?
00:57:06I was wondering if I could show you my favourite place on the island to look at the night sky.
00:57:10Yeah, sounds great.
00:57:11So, how did Mrs. Trask communicate with you prior to this weekend?
00:57:19All via email, which made it much easier to appear incognito as Loretta Mabry, archaeologist from California.
00:57:30Do you like the accent?
00:57:31Impressive.
00:57:32Janie, in any of those communications, did Ainsley ask for an employee list?
00:57:37Yes, in fact, she did.
00:57:40Are you thinking that's how she got to Simmons?
00:57:42Yeah.
00:57:43Well, she just said she had security concerns and that she was paying VIP prices, so I gave a fist.
00:57:51But, as I said to her, none of our employees have a criminal record.
00:57:56That is true, but we learned from Bennett that Simmons' sister is a single mother battling cancer.
00:58:01He started an online fundraising campaign for her about a month ago.
00:58:04So, that might be his motive for selling secrets to Ainsley?
00:58:09I believe it is.
00:58:13Well, suddenly I'm feeling terribly for Simmons.
00:58:23Wow.
00:58:25Lovely.
00:58:26It is lovely.
00:58:27Hard to believe this is where I found the corpse of Mystery Island's founder.
00:58:31Gosh, I mean, that must have been awful.
00:58:33Not my first time seeing a corpse.
00:58:36Right, of course.
00:58:38Well, today was my first day.
00:58:41Identifying her body.
00:58:45Why'd you bring me up here, Emmy?
00:58:48Emmy?
00:58:51You know, nobody's called me that since...
00:58:53Since you broke up our engagement?
00:58:57Are you trying to dodge the question?
00:58:58I brought you up here to what I thought you'd think was a decidedly romantic locale.
00:59:05But is, in fact, for me, something quite the opposite.
00:59:10Okay, so this is an object lesson in how incompatible we are.
00:59:13I said I didn't want you to come to Mystery Island, but a part of me did want to see you again because I wanted closure, and I wish you could admit that you need that, too, because you are not in love with me.
00:59:27Did you forget what I told you on the beach?
00:59:30No, and I'd like to know why that happened, but here's the thing.
00:59:35If you're so in love with me, why wait for your wife to bring you to my place of work and then make your move?
00:59:42Yeah.
00:59:45It's a good question, isn't it?
00:59:48I have a reply.
00:59:51I believe you wanted Ainsley to see you with me.
00:59:54I think you told her you were going for a walk on the beach.
00:59:57I think it might have been Ainsley who was no longer in love with you, who no longer adored you.
01:00:03I've been thinking a lot about our relationship, about why it remained transatlantic for so long.
01:00:13Our jobs?
01:00:15No, that's the surface answer.
01:00:18The deeper one is absence makes the heart grow fonder.
01:00:25So you're speaking in cliches now?
01:00:27There are only cliches because they're true.
01:00:28I think you liked the distance because it allowed me to keep adoring you, and you want to be adored, Franklin.
01:00:40Okay, Emmy.
01:00:43So tell me then, did I kill Ainsley?
01:00:49I mean, that's the deeper reason why you brought me up here, isn't it?
01:00:52To press my buttons, see how I respond, see if I fit into your psychological profile for my wife's killer.
01:01:05Did you kill Ainsley?
01:01:07I loved Ainsley.
01:01:12And I believe...
01:01:16I'm still in love with you.
01:01:22You're right.
01:01:26I absolutely love to be adored.
01:01:31But I did not kill my wife.
01:01:35Do you believe me?
01:01:41Help!
01:01:42Help!
01:01:43Help!
01:01:47Help!
01:01:47Please!
01:01:48Mr. Trask!
01:01:50Stop that!
01:01:50Spencer!
01:01:51Buddy, enough!
01:01:52Okay, okay, I'm good.
01:01:53Is he all right?
01:01:54I think not.
01:01:55He needs to go to the infirmary.
01:01:56What are you doing?
01:01:57What am I doing?
01:01:58This guy killed your wife!
01:02:00We don't know that.
01:02:01Yeah?
01:02:01Well, you also didn't know what I know.
01:02:03The rats always go back to their holes.
01:02:06So me and Patricia waited for him.
01:02:07He was trying to sneak back in.
01:02:08Is that true?
01:02:08Of course it is.
01:02:10Spencer doesn't lie.
01:02:11He grabbed him and told him to go confess to you for killing Ainsley.
01:02:15He said he didn't kill Ainsley.
01:02:17I was like, then why'd you go on the run?
01:02:18And then he actually tried to headbutt Spencer.
01:02:20We have security cameras in the dorm hallway.
01:02:23We know Simmons was in his room from midnight to two.
01:02:25Oh, he could have snuck back in that window.
01:02:27He's got a point.
01:02:28He does.
01:02:29But Spencer, not only are you a suspect, you were under arrest for assault.
01:02:33Are you joking?
01:02:34Patricia, I'm investigating a homicide and your husband is interfering with that investigation.
01:02:38Do I need to put these on you or you come in peacefully with me back to the jail?
01:02:42Yeah, no need, man.
01:02:44Come on.
01:02:53I think Jason needs our help.
01:02:54He needs to show me Mickey's book.
01:02:56Yeah.
01:02:58Well, be prepared to face this wrath when we tell him how we got it.
01:03:02Wrath I can handle.
01:03:03We need to solve this case before somebody else winds up the pit.
01:03:20Hey.
01:03:23How's he doing?
01:03:24Stable, but not talking yet.
01:03:26What's up?
01:03:26Can we talk?
01:03:27Of course.
01:03:28I spoke with Franklin earlier.
01:03:33I wanted to see if I could get him to tell me the truth.
01:03:35About Ainsley or about you?
01:03:37Both.
01:03:38And about himself.
01:03:39How'd he do?
01:03:40Well, with most people, the tell that they're lying is a gesture of obfuscation.
01:03:45Yeah, playing with their hair, fidgeting.
01:03:48Exactly.
01:03:49But with Franklin, the tell that he's lying is he doesn't seem to be obfuscating at all.
01:03:53He just looks at you with the most penetrating gaze.
01:03:55So he's a sociopath.
01:03:57I don't think so, no.
01:03:59Just a man of profound conviction.
01:04:00And he did this penetrating gaze thing when he was telling you what?
01:04:04That he was in love with Ainsley.
01:04:06And with me.
01:04:07So you think?
01:04:09Franklin's always had one true love, himself.
01:04:12But I don't think he killed Ainsley.
01:04:14Who do you think did?
01:04:15Well, Janie thinks Mickey's a strong candidate.
01:04:18The knife he gave to forensics.
01:04:20How do you know about that?
01:04:21Uh...
01:04:21We saw him in the jungle, meeting with Vivica.
01:04:27Amelia.
01:04:28We kept a safe distance, but they were arguing about something.
01:04:31What?
01:04:32Well, it was hard to hear.
01:04:33Because we were keeping a safe distance.
01:04:35But he did shout, I'm owed.
01:04:36And then he showed her this knife, which concerned me.
01:04:38So I followed him to the hut, and I saw him turn it in.
01:04:41There was no blood on it, but we're having to check for DNA and prints.
01:04:45Okay.
01:04:45Well, he's also been reading this.
01:04:47And how did you come about this?
01:04:49Does that matter?
01:04:50For a chain of custody in a trial, it certainly does.
01:04:52Well, we can discuss that later, but you see all the notations?
01:04:56Well, he is a school teacher.
01:04:58Maybe it's his first class.
01:04:59He teaches biology, not creative writing.
01:05:01And look at this passage.
01:05:03Cut their carotid artery as easy as slicing a lemon.
01:05:08Yeah.
01:05:08Oh, also, there's a prescription for Ainsley for Tamazepan,
01:05:12the sleeping medication, in Franklin's bathroom.
01:05:14Well, how do you...
01:05:16Well, I was using his bathroom, and I searched his toiletries.
01:05:19It was definitely Ainsley's.
01:05:20Definitely.
01:05:21I'm thinking of our aperitifs.
01:05:23Yeah, me too.
01:05:24We'll know for a fact in the morning.
01:05:28What?
01:05:30Even when we're not working together, you deliver.
01:05:33Well, I do have Janie.
01:05:35She might be a bit of an investigative upgrade.
01:05:37Trying to make me jealous.
01:05:39Is it working?
01:05:40Really well.
01:05:49Em.
01:05:51Did you just call me Em?
01:05:54I did.
01:05:55Janie calls you that all the time.
01:05:56Is it a problem?
01:05:58Quite the contrary.
01:05:59Good.
01:06:00Yeah.
01:06:00So, what is it?
01:06:04Oh, uh, Ray got back to me with the toxicology reports.
01:06:07Janie, you and I all had our aperitifs spiked,
01:06:09which means you are no longer a suspect.
01:06:11And Franklin's your prime suspect.
01:06:13I'll go fetch him.
01:06:14Meet me in the dining room.
01:06:15No one's in there right now.
01:06:20Have you had a breakthrough?
01:06:21Of sorts.
01:06:22Well, what's that mean?
01:06:24Have a seat.
01:06:25I'm fine standing.
01:06:27Sit down.
01:06:31Are you...
01:06:32Dr. Priestley's consulting on the case.
01:06:35Okay, then.
01:06:36So, what's this about?
01:06:39These sleeping pills prescribed your wife
01:06:42were not found with her things in her room.
01:06:44They were found in your dop kit in your room.
01:06:47You were spying on me.
01:06:48Franklin, I want to catch your wife's killer.
01:06:50And you think it's me?
01:06:51Why were these in your room?
01:06:52What does it matter?
01:06:54Ainsley didn't die from an overdose of sleeping pills.
01:06:56It's interesting that you're not answering my question.
01:06:59What do those pills have to do with their murder?
01:07:01Answer the question, Franklin.
01:07:03Actually, I don't think I will.
01:07:06I think I'm going back to my room.
01:07:08I want your outside landline
01:07:09so I can call my lawyer and a pilot to my plane.
01:07:12Franklin.
01:07:13You've been manipulating me since I got here.
01:07:15That's projection.
01:07:17This is not the behavior of an innocent man.
01:07:19It's the behavior of an annoyed man.
01:07:21Now, I'm going to talk to Vivica
01:07:23and we're going to hire the best private detectives in New York
01:07:26to come down here and do your job for you.
01:07:29They'll be here tomorrow along with my lawyers
01:07:30who will have my brother released.
01:07:34I am done cooperating.
01:07:38I don't know, Roland.
01:07:39I better call Ray and let him know what happened.
01:07:41I doubt the others will talk to us now either.
01:07:43Mickey might.
01:07:45We just have to get him alone.
01:07:46Now.
01:07:47And do what?
01:07:48Employ a psychological technique
01:07:49to get him to tell us about what he's owed.
01:07:51What is this psychological technique?
01:07:54It's called...
01:07:56bluffing.
01:08:02Has something happened?
01:08:03Why?
01:08:04Franklin just charged into the game room,
01:08:06grabbed Vivica, and left.
01:08:08The investigation may have taken a turn.
01:08:10Is Mickey with them?
01:08:11He's still in there with Patricia.
01:08:12I don't feel like being accosted about Spencer.
01:08:15Could you grab him for us, Bennett?
01:08:16That's right away.
01:08:18So, how do we bluff?
01:08:21I had a thought.
01:08:22Would you like to share it before he...
01:08:23Mickey!
01:08:25Um, would you like to take a stroll with us?
01:08:28Um...
01:08:29Let's go this way.
01:08:31So, I'm supporting Detective Trent in his investigation now.
01:08:35Oh, that's good?
01:08:36Yes, it is.
01:08:37Um, and I just wanted to tell you
01:08:39that I'm sympathetic to what you're going through.
01:08:42Not just for the loss of Ainsley,
01:08:44but also for Vivica betraying your trust.
01:08:48She told you?
01:08:49Hmm.
01:08:51She seemed quite upset
01:08:52because according to her,
01:08:53it was all your idea.
01:08:56That's a lie.
01:08:57Vivica approached me.
01:08:59Well, you know,
01:09:01she thinks you believe she owes you.
01:09:03Because she does?
01:09:05Okay, maybe to her,
01:09:06to all these people,
01:09:07it's not a lot of money,
01:09:08but to me it is.
01:09:09She said ten?
01:09:10Ten?
01:09:10No, it's 25 grand,
01:09:12and I can prove that.
01:09:14We have a contract.
01:09:15Did you remind her of that contract?
01:09:17She said it's not valid
01:09:18because I didn't get Ainsley
01:09:20to fall in love with me.
01:09:24Right.
01:09:25You know, Vivica didn't actually tell us
01:09:27why she wanted Ainsley
01:09:28to fall in love with you.
01:09:30Because Vivica's in love with Franklin.
01:09:32You can't make me go.
01:09:36We cannot go.
01:09:37Let me go.
01:09:38Calm down.
01:09:39What is happening?
01:09:40These heartless monsters
01:09:41want to go back to New York
01:09:42and leave Spencer in your jail.
01:09:44We're sending lawyers down.
01:09:45You think you can buy your way
01:09:46out of anything?
01:09:47Stop.
01:09:48We may not be pressing charges.
01:09:50When I left Simmons,
01:09:51he was stable.
01:09:52Bennett, how is he now?
01:09:53He's much better.
01:09:54He's managed a few words,
01:09:55but the nurse says
01:09:55he needs to rest a bit more.
01:09:56That's good news.
01:09:57When can I see him?
01:09:58I'd say in an hour.
01:09:59I'll have a conversation with him,
01:10:00which will quite possibly result
01:10:02in Spencer being released.
01:10:03Franklin, we have to stay.
01:10:05You have one hour.
01:10:12Jason and I were hoping
01:10:13to talk to you
01:10:14about your contract with Mickey.
01:10:18You told him about our contract.
01:10:22You told him about our contract.
01:10:24Oh, Mickey.
01:10:25Yes, let's chat.
01:10:35Yes.
01:10:37The contract was for Mickey
01:10:40to get Ainsley
01:10:40to fall in love with him.
01:10:42He got $25,000 on signing
01:10:45and would receive the second half
01:10:47when Ainsley left Franklin.
01:10:50Yesterday, you told me
01:10:51you and Ainsley were friends.
01:10:52We are.
01:10:55We're.
01:10:56That's how I knew about Mickey.
01:10:58And you didn't think
01:10:58to tell me about this contract.
01:11:00It has no relevance
01:11:01to Ainsley's murder.
01:11:02That is for me to decide.
01:11:06It's obviously...
01:11:08It's quite embarrassing.
01:11:10You really did all this
01:11:11because you're in love
01:11:12with Franklin?
01:11:14Mickey told you everything.
01:11:17It's quite ironic
01:11:18I'm speaking to you
01:11:19about this
01:11:19who threw away
01:11:20the most wonderful man
01:11:21in the world
01:11:21and still he travels
01:11:23thousands of miles
01:11:24just to see you again.
01:11:27I've seen the way
01:11:28you two look at each other.
01:11:30Don't tell me
01:11:31you don't know
01:11:31what it's like
01:11:32to be attracted
01:11:32to a work colleague.
01:11:35And then, Amelia,
01:11:35imagine Detective Trent here.
01:11:37He...
01:11:38He gets married
01:11:39to someone you think
01:11:40is impressive
01:11:41and likable.
01:11:44But she's not you.
01:11:45Is she?
01:11:46And then,
01:11:47imagine you find a way
01:11:49to just change things.
01:11:51Murder would also
01:11:52be a way to do that.
01:11:55Of course it would.
01:11:57But then why would I bother
01:11:58to sign a contract
01:11:59with Mickey?
01:12:01And anyway,
01:12:02I didn't need Mickey
01:12:03to get Ainsley
01:12:04to Lee Franklin.
01:12:05I needed you.
01:12:11Now,
01:12:11if that is all,
01:12:12I have some calls
01:12:13to make on the landline
01:12:14regarding private detectives
01:12:16we're hiring.
01:12:17Of course.
01:12:27Hard to argue
01:12:28that if she wanted Ainsley
01:12:29to leave Franklin...
01:12:30She had no motive
01:12:31for murder.
01:12:32Janie and I both noticed
01:12:33her being quite touchy-feely
01:12:34with him.
01:12:35Yeah,
01:12:35in tracks,
01:12:36but I don't know.
01:12:36These people are...
01:12:37Twisted?
01:12:39Yeah.
01:12:40That was clever
01:12:41what she did
01:12:42trying to turn it around
01:12:43on us.
01:12:43Very clever.
01:12:45And she's not wrong.
01:12:47If you got engaged again,
01:12:49I...
01:12:49might try to end it.
01:12:53Doctor's given the all clear.
01:12:54You can see Simmons now.
01:12:55No.
01:12:55Hey.
01:13:05I was just telling Simmons
01:13:06that we know
01:13:07what he did for his sister.
01:13:08Hold on, Janie.
01:13:11Simmons,
01:13:11you need to tell us
01:13:12what you did.
01:13:13I gave Ainsley to ask
01:13:16the answer to the game
01:13:17you guys wrote
01:13:18in exchange for
01:13:20a hundred grand.
01:13:21To pay his sister's
01:13:22medical bills,
01:13:23which, Simmons,
01:13:24you really should have
01:13:25come to us about that.
01:13:26I appreciate that,
01:13:27but...
01:13:29Jason, I swear,
01:13:29I had nothing to do
01:13:30with her murder.
01:13:32When's the last time
01:13:33you were with Ainsley?
01:13:36Before dinner.
01:13:37Friday.
01:13:39She gave me the money
01:13:40and the pills.
01:13:41Pills?
01:13:42Did Ainsley have you
01:13:44drug the aperitifs
01:13:44in our three rooms?
01:13:46I put the pills
01:13:48in everyone's drinks.
01:13:51Well,
01:13:52everyone except
01:13:53Ainsley and
01:13:54someone else.
01:14:08We're closing in
01:14:09on an hour.
01:14:10I'm aware of that,
01:14:11Mr. Trask.
01:14:12They're just tying up
01:14:13some loose ends.
01:14:14All right, then.
01:14:14We'll be leaving in two minutes
01:14:15and we'll be heading
01:14:16down to the dock.
01:14:16Without Spencer?
01:14:17Patricia,
01:14:18we agreed an hour.
01:14:19And Spencer has no one
01:14:21else to blame but himself.
01:14:22Patricia!
01:14:24Spencer!
01:14:25Hey, honey.
01:14:27Oh, did you miss me?
01:14:29Yeah.
01:14:31Hey, great news.
01:14:32They've decided
01:14:33not to press charges.
01:14:34Terrific.
01:14:35We're going now.
01:14:39Hey, Frankie,
01:14:39hold up.
01:14:39Simmons.
01:14:43Look, I, uh,
01:14:45I'm real sorry
01:14:47for losing my temper.
01:14:48I guess we both
01:14:49made mistakes.
01:14:50Takes a big man
01:14:51to admit that.
01:14:53Tough one, too.
01:14:54I gotta tell you,
01:14:54I hurt my hand there.
01:14:55You're made of steel.
01:14:56I appreciate that.
01:14:57That's very gracious,
01:14:58Simmons.
01:14:59I'm glad you're okay.
01:15:00Now,
01:15:01we are leaving.
01:15:02Don't go, Franklin.
01:15:13Not until we've told you
01:15:14who the murderer is.
01:15:23Is this some stall tactic?
01:15:24Not at all.
01:15:25And I promise if you stay,
01:15:27you'll get your money's worth.
01:15:28Yeah,
01:15:28because that's what
01:15:29this whole weekend
01:15:29has been about,
01:15:30after all.
01:15:30not love.
01:15:33Money.
01:15:34Franklin,
01:15:35this really isn't
01:15:35worth your time.
01:15:36We need to...
01:15:37Hang on, dear.
01:15:39Emmy,
01:15:39what do you mean
01:15:39this weekend's
01:15:40been about money?
01:15:42Janie?
01:15:43Right.
01:15:44Well, as you know,
01:15:45Ainsley reached out
01:15:46to me with a plan
01:15:47for you all
01:15:47to come down here.
01:15:49Now, the one requirement
01:15:49was that Amelia
01:15:50be on site and included.
01:15:52So it seemed obvious
01:15:54that Ainsley
01:15:54wanted you, Franklin,
01:15:55to be reconnected
01:15:56with your former love
01:15:57to ensure
01:15:58that you weren't
01:15:59still holding a flame
01:16:00for her.
01:16:01And when Ainsley
01:16:01won the game
01:16:02by cheating,
01:16:03this seemed
01:16:03it was to prove
01:16:04to you that she,
01:16:06your current love,
01:16:06was better than me.
01:16:07We thought maybe
01:16:08a flame had been
01:16:09rekindled between Ainsley
01:16:10and her high school
01:16:11sweetheart, Mickey.
01:16:12But then we learned
01:16:13that Mickey had been
01:16:14hired by Vivica
01:16:14to woo Ainsley
01:16:15away from you
01:16:16because,
01:16:17according to Vivica,
01:16:18she's in love
01:16:19with you.
01:16:21Whoa.
01:16:22Excuse me?
01:16:25Viv, is this?
01:16:26Not how I wanted
01:16:27you to learn it, Franklin.
01:16:29So it's true?
01:16:31Mickey?
01:16:32Yeah, it's true.
01:16:38Franklin, I'd really
01:16:39rather prefer to discuss
01:16:41this on the flight home.
01:16:42We'll get there.
01:16:43Believe me.
01:16:44Continue, please.
01:16:45Love is obviously
01:16:48one of the biggest
01:16:49motives for murder,
01:16:50but when we questioned
01:16:51Vivica, she
01:16:52abdly disproved
01:16:53that she could have
01:16:54killed Ainsley.
01:16:55I'm glad you agree.
01:16:57And you were so close.
01:16:59She gave you
01:16:59that complimentary
01:17:00nickname,
01:17:01money.
01:17:02And money is the
01:17:03other top motive
01:17:03for murder.
01:17:04So what if that was
01:17:05the motive for
01:17:05Ainsley's murder?
01:17:06Not the $50,000
01:17:08that Vivica was
01:17:09paying Mickey.
01:17:09Or the $100,000
01:17:10Ainsley paid Simmon.
01:17:12I mean, to most of you,
01:17:12those numbers
01:17:13are just rounding errors.
01:17:14But to commit murder,
01:17:17there needed to be
01:17:17a much bigger prize
01:17:18at the end.
01:17:19Yeah.
01:17:21Like Trask Global.
01:17:23My company.
01:17:25Do you remember
01:17:26what Ainsley said
01:17:27about our
01:17:27fictitious gold smuggler?
01:17:29If you're going
01:17:29to rob someone,
01:17:30don't do it
01:17:31a bit at a time.
01:17:32Don't you agree,
01:17:33money?
01:17:37Ainsley was right.
01:17:38The character
01:17:39I was playing
01:17:40would have been smart
01:17:40to find a way
01:17:41to take all the money
01:17:42in one fell swoop.
01:17:43Which is what
01:17:44would have happened
01:17:44if someone had
01:17:45forced Franklin
01:17:46out of his own
01:17:47company
01:17:47and taken control
01:17:49of Trask Global
01:17:49for over a billion dollars.
01:17:51Hey, whoa, Frankie,
01:17:52I swear I did not
01:17:53try to do that.
01:17:53Even if Spencer
01:17:54had been angling
01:17:55to take over
01:17:55Franklin's company
01:17:56months ago...
01:17:57Uh-uh, Spencer wasn't.
01:17:58We know he didn't
01:17:59kill Ainsley.
01:18:01He was fast asleep.
01:18:02Where were you
01:18:03between midnight
01:18:03and 2 a.m.?
01:18:04Passed out.
01:18:06Me and Patricia vote.
01:18:06In fact,
01:18:09many people
01:18:10had a hard time
01:18:10staying awake
01:18:11that night,
01:18:11including
01:18:12Jason, Janie
01:18:12and myself.
01:18:14Because they
01:18:14were drugged
01:18:15with Tamazepam.
01:18:17Toxicology confirmed it.
01:18:18Naturally,
01:18:19we thought the killer
01:18:19drugged us
01:18:20to keep us out of the way
01:18:21so the murder
01:18:22could be committed.
01:18:23But in a quite
01:18:23stunning twist,
01:18:24it wasn't the killer
01:18:24who drugged us,
01:18:25it was the murder victim.
01:18:26Which the killer
01:18:27wouldn't have known,
01:18:28of course.
01:18:29And Simmons clarified
01:18:30that Ainsley
01:18:30didn't just pay him
01:18:31to give away
01:18:31the plot of the game.
01:18:33She paid him
01:18:33to drug all the drinks
01:18:34in our room.
01:18:35All of them,
01:18:36but one person's.
01:18:39Vivica.
01:18:40Are you serious?
01:18:45Yeah,
01:18:46they're serious.
01:18:48Ainsley had me
01:18:48drug all the drinks
01:18:50except for hers
01:18:51and yours.
01:18:53Well,
01:18:54I don't see
01:18:54how this matters.
01:18:55It matters
01:18:56because it means
01:18:56that Ainsley
01:18:57was planning on
01:18:57meeting with you
01:18:58after midnight
01:18:58when Bennett,
01:18:59Simmons and the rest
01:19:00of the staff
01:19:00were in their rooms
01:19:01and when all the guests
01:19:02were sleeping
01:19:02a deep, deep sleep.
01:19:04I was sleeping, too.
01:19:05Simmons has no motive
01:19:07for lying.
01:19:08While we were at dinner,
01:19:09he drugged
01:19:09everyone's apartheid,
01:19:10then put the temazepam
01:19:11back into Franklin
01:19:13and Ainsley's room.
01:19:14Before their fight
01:19:15and before Ainsley
01:19:15moved rooms.
01:19:16But he mistakenly
01:19:17put the pill bottle
01:19:18back in Franklin's
01:19:19dobget.
01:19:20Ainsley had Simmons
01:19:21do this
01:19:22because she wanted
01:19:23complete privacy
01:19:24when she presented
01:19:25you with a contract
01:19:26that would pay her
01:19:27what we can only imagine
01:19:28is a very large sum
01:19:30of money
01:19:30for her vote.
01:19:31You weren't in love
01:19:32with Franklin.
01:19:34You wanted to take
01:19:35over his company
01:19:35and you spent months
01:19:38wooing board members
01:19:39away from Franklin.
01:19:40And then you got rid
01:19:41of Spencer
01:19:42and pinned that
01:19:42on Ainsley.
01:19:43This is an absurd
01:19:44fantasy.
01:19:45But it isn't, though.
01:19:46Don't you remember
01:19:47my second cousin
01:19:48is on your board,
01:19:49Piper Plunkett?
01:19:50She just told me
01:19:51all this on the phone
01:19:51before I walked in here.
01:19:53You needed one more vote
01:19:54to force Franklin out.
01:19:55You tried to hire Mickey
01:19:56to get leverage
01:19:57over Ainsley
01:19:57but that failed.
01:19:58Ainsley didn't love Mickey.
01:19:59Ainsley didn't love
01:20:02Franklin either.
01:20:02Ainsley loved money.
01:20:04And once you understood
01:20:05that, you knew what to do.
01:20:07But then something
01:20:08must have happened.
01:20:09Did Ainsley change
01:20:10the deal at the last minute?
01:20:12Did she want more money
01:20:13than money was willing
01:20:14to pay?
01:20:15And if money didn't pay,
01:20:16Ainsley would simply
01:20:17tell Franklin
01:20:17what money had been up to.
01:20:19Ainsley out-negotiated money.
01:20:21That's what Ainsley
01:20:22was trying to write.
01:20:23It's not an S.
01:20:24It's the beginnings
01:20:24of a dollar sign.
01:20:25Ainsley was trying to tell us
01:20:27that her killer
01:20:28was money.
01:20:29This is more fantastical
01:20:30than one of your
01:20:31mystery game plots.
01:20:32A brilliant woman
01:20:32like Ainsley
01:20:33would have taken payment
01:20:34with a cashier's check
01:20:35for maximum secrecy.
01:20:37Unlike a wire transfer,
01:20:38cashier checks
01:20:38leave no digital trace.
01:20:40Give me the check.
01:20:43Give me the check.
01:20:44Ten million dollars
01:21:07made out to Ainsley Trask.
01:21:09Oh.
01:21:11And endorsed back to you
01:21:12with what I can only expect
01:21:14is Ainsley's forged signature.
01:21:17Vivica Bentley,
01:21:18you are under arrest
01:21:19for the murder
01:21:20of Ainsley Trask.
01:21:28No.
01:21:29Listen, please accept
01:21:39my apology for my behavior.
01:21:41You got as twisted
01:21:42as we did
01:21:43with Vivica's lies.
01:21:45Thanks for that.
01:21:46And for all you did.
01:21:47Just doing our job.
01:21:49I hope it's not
01:21:50another seven years
01:21:51until I see you again.
01:21:53Our paths may cross
01:21:54at Vivica's trial.
01:21:56Take care of yourself, Emmy.
01:22:05Well,
01:22:06I realize the three of you
01:22:07have been through this before,
01:22:09but an actual murder
01:22:10in the midst
01:22:11of fictitious ones.
01:22:13If you need a couple of days
01:22:14to recover, Bennett.
01:22:15Oh, no.
01:22:16Quite the contrary.
01:22:18I am extremely proud
01:22:20to be in the company
01:22:21of three such brilliant
01:22:22investigative minds.
01:22:27Why don't we all
01:22:28have a bottle of champagne?
01:22:30Oh, why not?
01:22:32Amelia and I will
01:22:33join you on the veranda shortly.
01:22:36Oh, all right.
01:22:38In it, shall we?
01:22:38Oh, Baroness, after you.
01:22:42What is it?
01:22:43I just wanted to say that
01:22:44you handled Franklin
01:22:46really well.
01:22:47Oh, as did you.
01:22:48I was impressed
01:22:49you made it through
01:22:49without smacking him.
01:22:51Oh, I was tempted.
01:22:52I'm sure you were too.
01:22:54I believe I have the right
01:22:55to remain silent
01:22:56on that detective.
01:22:59Jason.
01:23:00Em.
01:23:01Earlier in the library
01:23:02when you said...
01:23:03That if you got engaged again,
01:23:04I would try to stop it.
01:23:05Did you want to say why?
01:23:07You're the psychiatrist.
01:23:08I'm sure you'll figure it out.
01:23:09Well, here's your recommendation in the library.
01:23:23I love you.
