The victim is the concert
pianist Pasha Verdinikov.

GUNSHOT
Can anyone think why
someone might want to kill Pasha?

You think it might have been one
of us that killed Pasha, don't you?

AS? Pasha wrote this in his own
blood. Could be someone's initials.

His killer's? Possibly.

This is the gun he used
to kill Pasha.

And what about fingerprints?

It's Aidan Shawcross.
He's been dead 20 years.

Neville, I think someone might
have broken into my house.

Police! Step away now!

I need to make a phone call.

I'll be there as soon as I can.

PHONE BEEPS

VOICEMAIL BEEPS

Aidan...

It's Grace.

We need to talk. Please.

As soon as you get this.

# It's the same song

# But a different feeling I get

# It's the same song... #

Sergeant Bordey, welcome back.

It's so good to see you.

So, how is Maman doing?

She's conscious now.
Shaken, as you would expect.

She's had a nasty
trauma to the head.

But the doctors are confident
she will make a full recovery.

OK.

# But a different feeling I get... #

Maman?

Cammy!

You're here.

It's so good to see you.

You really didn't need to come.

Of course I did.

I wouldn't be
anywhere else right now.

SELWYN CLEARS HIS THROAT

Oh, good morning, Commissioner.

Let me introduce
Detective Sergeant Camille Bordey.

As well as a fine detective,

she also happens to be
Catherine's daughter.

This is Sergeant JP Hooper.

It's so good to finally meet you.
I've heard so much about you.

And this is
Trainee Officer Marlon Pryce.

DS Bordey, it is
a pleasure to meet you.

And you know, just ignore
the whole trainee thing.

I'm pretty much
a full-blown...officer now.

No, you're not.

And over here,
we have DI Neville Parker.

DS Bordey!

Lovely to meet you. And you.

I'm looking forward to us
working together.

Working together?

As we lost DS Cassell to London,

DS Bordey has kindly offered
her services until she returns.

Oh, OK.

Great. Thank you.

But wouldn't you rather be
with your mother?

There will be plenty of time
for Maman and me to catch up.

Just as soon as I've caught
whoever did this to her.

Oui? Uh... Oui.

I mean, yeah. Oui.

Yeah.

Shall we get down to business? Yes.

Last night at 10:30,
Catherine Bordey, your mother...

Yeah. I know.

..was assaulted by an unknown
assailant in her own home.

Sergeant Hooper and Officer Pryce
processed the scene last night,

however... We found nothing to
indicate who might have done it.

But you think it's
connected to the previous murder?

We believe so.

We haven't yet questioned Catherine,
your mother...

You don't need to keep referring
to her as my mother.

I think we all know that.

Duly noted.

But I have a hunch that
Catherine knows something that might

lead us to the killer,

and that's why there was
an attempt on her life. Uh, sir,

I was thinking,
do you think that Aidan Shawcross

has something to do with it
in some way? I don't know, JP.

Maybe. Aidan Shawcross? Who is he?

Pasha Verdinikov, the victim,

wrote the initials AS in his own
blood shortly before he died.

Aidan Shawcross was an old friend
of Pasha's who died

in a car crash on the island
20 years ago.

And what's even stranger,
his fingerprints were on the gun

that was used to shoot
Pasha Verdinikov.

His fingerprints?

And this guy's been dead 20 years?

It's exactly
the same reaction we had.

That's why DS Cassell is in London.

Scotland Yard fraud unit have
a hefty case they were building

against Aidan Shawcross
when he died.

OK...

Any other possible suspects?

Ones that aren't dead?

Well, we focused in on
those closest to the victim.

First up, there's Delford Adams,

the Verdinikovs' gardener
and handy man.

He's been working with them
for a year now.

He's the only one of them
with a criminal record,

but nothing to suggest he might have
motive to kill the victim.

Then there's Maggie O'Connell,
the family housekeeper and cook.

She has no apparent motive herself,

but she was very keen to point us
in the direction of Pasha's wife.

And I sense that there's no love
lost between Ms O'Connell

and her boss, Grace Verdinikov.

The marriage initially
seemed pretty solid,

but it transpired that there had
been an affair in the past

between Grace and Aidan Shawcross.

Did her husband know about it?

Well, we were told he didn't,

but she does have a track record
of lying to us throughout this case,

and I believe there are still
some things she's not telling us.

Then there's Joseph Verdinikov,

Pasha and Grace's son.

There's definitely some issues
between Joseph and his father.

They've been estranged
since Joseph moved to Paris.

Pasha invited him to Saint Marie

because there was something
he wanted to tell him,

but we don't know what that was.

Also, all four of the suspects
have rock-solid alibis

for the time at which
Pasha Verdinikov was murdered.

When he was shot in the music room,

everyone else was in the main house.

Grace and Delford
were in the living room.

GUNSHOT
And Maggie and Joseph

were both in the kitchen.

So if it was one of them,

quite how they managed to do it
is a question we have yet to answer.

Which brings us to Catherine,
your mother.

No, not your mother. I mean,
yes, obviously, your mother, but...

Stop prattling, Inspector.

Sorry. What I'm trying to say is,

if she's up to it,

I reckon it's time
we take Catherine's statement.

It's all very hazy now, but...

..I was on the phone
speaking to Neville.

I saw a reflection on the window,

then I felt a grip around my neck.

I couldn't breathe.

Did you see their face?

I tried to fight them off,

then I hit my head,

and everything went black.

Catherine...

Yesterday, at the church,

you told me there was something you
thought might be of use to the case.

What was that?

Before the memorial service,

when we were all talking,

Grace mentioned how
Pasha spent his last afternoon

doing what he loved -

playing the piano
in his practice room.

But it's not true.

I saw him
that same afternoon in Honore.

Really?

By the harbour.

What time was this?

It might have been
round three o'clock.

He was coming off a boat.

When I called to him,

he saw me and we talked.

Did he say where he'd been?

Who else knew about this?

No-one.

You're the only people I've told.

OK, sir. Sarge.

So it seems that
it was Busta's boat over there

that Mr Verdinikov hired.

Yeah. Pasha got Busta to
take him over to Sainte Helene,

about half an hour's ride from here.
When they got there,

Pasha took a taxi
and was gone for about two hours.

Does Busta know where Pasha went?
No, but it's not the first time

he's hired the boat.

Busta says that he's done it
a couple of times

over the last 18 months.
And he always takes a taxi,

comes back a couple of hours later.

We need to get to Sainte Helene,
speak to that taxi driver.

Yeah. Can you arrange transport
for us? We're on it. Yes.

Yes, that's no problemo for
the likes of me and my colleague,

DS Sergeant Bordey.

Or would you prefer if I, uh,
called you Camille?

Sarge is fine. OK.

Sarge it is, then.

Trainee Officer Marlon Pryce
at your service.

All right, then, buddy-boy.
Let's get to it.

Marlon... Hmm?

Didn't you do that before we left?

Yeah, I did.

But my policy is,
it's never too soon for a top-up.

I have something
of a hyper-sensitivity to the sun.

I'm sorry?

You're sensitive to the sun?

And you moved to the Caribbean?

The irony is not lost on me.

Yeah, but seriously...

..why are you living here?

Uh...

I guess you could call it a sort of
self-inflicted aversion therapy.

Right...

Not to say that it's all bad.

There are some things I do like.

The people...particularly.

And what about you?
You work in Paris?

Yeah.

I head up the undercover team there.
Oh. Yeah.

That's hard work.

Challenging but, uh,
I guess that's why I like it.

Do you miss Saint Marie?

Of course!

Sometimes.

Maman the most.

I mean to come and visit her more,
but it's hard.

I'm sure she understands. Hmm.

She's so proud of
everything you've achieved.

She never stops talking about you.

Sir. Sarge.

I've just spoken with
the Sainte Helene police force.

They've located the taxi driver.

They're waiting for us
at the harbour now. Good.

KNOCK ON DOOR

So the taxi driver
dropped Pasha off here

and once Pasha paid,
he just drove off.

Seems like nobody's home.

The car is still in the drive,
though.

OK. According to the neighbour,

the man who lives in this house
is called John Ward.

He's in his 50s.
Apparently he's a bit of a loner,

but she says that she hasn't seen
him for the last couple of weeks.

Seek and ye shall find, my brother.

Some people are just asking
to be taken advantage of.

But that's obviously not
what we're doing here, you know.

Police!

Anybody home?

Hey!

His phone.

Yeah. But the battery's dead,

and I can't see the charger.

Ah! Sir...

9mm.

For a semi-automatic, I'd say.

Exactly the same type of bullet
we recovered from Pasha's body.

I don't believe it!

What? John Ward's driving licence.

It's Aidan Shawcross.

I'm sure of it.

I mean, he's aged a bit, but...

John Ward is...

This is Aidan Shawcross.

So Aidan Shawcross is still alive.

But how can that be?

We've got a whole
case file of evidence

that proves a man died
due to a car crash.

I don't know. But it would explain
a whole load of things,

like why Aidan's fingerprints
were on the gun

that shot Pasha Verdinikov.
It would also make sense

of Pasha writing
Aidan's initials before he died.

Because it was Aidan who shot him?
Yeah.

Sir. Sarge.

So the officers ran
a routine check on John Ward

to see what it flagged

and, um... What is it?

We know where he is.

Hello, Aidan.

Merci.

The nurse said he was diagnosed
with lung cancer two years ago.

In the last couple of months,
it spread to the brain,

and they admitted him
into the hospice a few weeks ago.

He doesn't have long left,
they think.

Did she know
if Pasha ever visited him at all?

When he came to the island
a week ago,

he brought Aidan a few things
from his house,

but Aidan had already
slipped into a coma.

Wait!

So he was comatose and bedridden
the night of the murder? Yeah.

Which means...
He can't be our killer.

I just don't understand
how Aidan Shawcross is alive.

I went through
the entire case file again.

All the evidence confirms he died
in a car accident 20 years ago.

I know, sir.

But that was him
lying in that bed today.

It was clearly a big case the fraud
team were building against Aidan.

A lot of evidence that he had
misappropriated millions of pounds

from his hedge fund group.
So why didn't they act on it?

They were ready to make
the arrest on his return to the UK.

But he never came back.

The case was shut down
when it was confirmed

that Aidan had died in a car crash.

So he must have known
the police were on to him.

That's why he faked his own death,
to avoid going to prison.

Except we are missing something.

If Aidan Shawcross never died,
then whose was the dead body

we recovered from the wreckage
of that car 20 years ago?

Sir...

..I think we need to request
a warrant to exhume the body.

I'll speak to the district judge.

Give your mum my best wishes.
I hope she's doing OK.

Thank you.

Oh! Actually, I almost forgot.

I thought this might keep Catherine
entertained while she's here.

Ohh!

Huh? Yeah. It's the definitive text
for general knowledge aficionados

like myself.

There's many an hour I've spent
in a doctor's waiting room

distracting myself with
that little beauty. Well, um...

Merci!

I'm sure Maman will be...delighted!

Sir...

You mustn't beat yourself up
about this.

We can only follow
the evidence before us and...

Don't patronise me, Inspector!

I now see that, 20 years ago,

someone clearly
played me for a fool.

And I'm damn well not
going to let that happen again.

We need to solve this case,
Inspector.

Sherman Harbottle's
Big Book Of Brilliant Facts.

CAMILLE LAUGHS

I mean, seriously?

What was he thinking?

You know, I can
think of another detective

who might have liked
a book like that.

Richard Poole.

All the facts and history.

Oh, yeah!

I guess he would have.

Do you ever think of him, Cammy?

Now and then.

Yeah.

Sometimes I can
hear his voice in my head...

..moaning about the weather,

getting grumpy over a cup of tea,

telling me
I'm getting it wrong on a case.

Yeah.

Always makes me feel better.

Hey...

You're pale, Maman.

And hot.

I'll get the nurse. I'm fine, Cammy.

Just tired.

All I need is some sleep,
c'est tout.

Here...

Come and lie with me
for a moment before you go.

Oh, yes.

Hmm...

CAMILLE LAUGHS

It's such a strange gift
to bring someone in hospital.

Neville means well.

And you know, if it wasn't for him

coming to my rescue last night,

I might not be here.

I guess so.

CATHERINE SIGHS

Huh!

Hello, stranger.

Do you remember me?

It's good to see you too.

Inspector?

Are you up?

Sir?

Oh, morning, Camille.

Huh?

Um...

What are you doing?

Just trying to get the old brainbox
firing on all cylinders.

By standing on your head?

Well, the brain's the largest
consumer of oxygen

in the human body.

More facts - perfect!

And inversion makes the oxygen-rich
blood flow more freely

to the head, which creates
better brain function. Mm-hm. Yes.

But is it working?

Mmm.

No. I've been doing this
on and off for half an hour.

I've still not got a sniff
of an idea of how the killer did it.

It just doesn't make sense, Camille.

Pasha was shot
inside his music room,

when all of our suspects were
inside the house, nowhere near him.

So if one of them fired the gun,

just how did they do it?

Mm-hm.

So, how is your mum this morning?

Um, she didn't sleep too well.

Her temperature was up. Oh, no.

Well, the nurses aren't worried,

so I think she'll be all right.

Good.

And, um, Maman tells me
if it wasn't for you getting there

just in time the other night,

she might not have survived.

Sounds like you saved her life,
so...

merci.

Well... I mean...

You know...

I'm sure if I hadn't
have got there, JP would have.

I mean, it's no biggie, really. Ohh!
What?

The English!

You're so awkward
when someone is complimenting you.

Just modest, DS Bordey.

Nothing wrong with that.

BEEP

Aidan, it's Grace. We need to talk.
As soon as you get this.

This was sent yesterday
morning at 6.53.

We finally charged up Aidan's mobile

and, clearly,
Grace Verdinikov's been lying to us.

She knew Aidan was still alive.

Well, the inspector's going to be
very interested when he finds out.

DS Bordey, good morning! How are you
this bright day? You good?

You look good. Yes. How's
your mother? She doing all right?

You know, I have been sending
positive vibes all night.

Even said a little prayer before
I went to bed. Oh, yes! Amen!

Uh...

Well, thank you.

And, um...

Good morning to you too. Thank you.

We were just talking about how Aidan
Shawcross has managed to convince

the world he's been dead for
20 years. And all I can think is,

there must have been some falsified
documentation at some point.

So, would one of you be able
to accompany DS Bordey

down to the mortuary
to check through Aidan's file?

Oh! I can make that work, yeah.

If I just move some things
around my schedule, you know?

Shall we? Yes. Sorry, yes.

What news your end, JP?

Uh...

I booted Aidan's phone.

And there is a voicemail
that you have to listen to.

I was desperate.

No-one else to talk to

and I thought that, somehow,
Aidan might know what's going on.

Maybe we should start
from the beginning, Mrs Verdinikov.

I guess that would be about...

..six weeks ago...

..which was when Pasha told me
that Aidan Shawcross was...

..that he was still alive.

You really didn't know until then?

No.

I know I've lied to you
and covered things up,

but I swear that is
the first I knew of it all.

And Pasha knew all this time?

20 years ago, it was Pasha who
helped Aidan fake his own death.

Because Aidan was facing
charges of fraud back in the UK?

Any idea how they managed it?

Pasha found it hard to talk about.

Said there was
another man's body in the car.

That someone else had been killed.

Do we know who that might be?

And that's what you were
arguing about the day of the murder.

It's why he wanted Joseph here.

Wanted to let him know all about it

before it became public knowledge.

If Pasha had been
keeping this secret for 20 years,

why tell you now?

About six weeks ago,
he was in his practice room,

and I hadn't heard a note
played all day

and I went and knocked.

And he fell into my arms.

I'd never seen him like that before.

And we sat all night.
He talked, I listened.

And he said he couldn't
live with it any more,

that he wanted to confess.

What caused this change in him?

I think when Pasha learned
that Aidan was going to die,

he realised he'd be the only one
carrying that burden.

So he was just going to go to
the police and admit to everything?

I tried to persuade him not to.

Told him that what he had to give
to the world, his talent,

that that should always come first.

But he was determined.

He, uh, wanted...

..needed...

..to purge.

I mean, I just can't really be sure,
you know?

It's over 20 years ago now.

Yes, but you were here
the night of the car crash?

When the body was brought in?

I must have been, yes.

But like I say, I don't remember it.

Listen, how long
are you going to be in there?

I ain't got all day, man.

I will be as long as it takes
to find what I'm looking for...man!

You seem very on edge, Mr James.

No, I don't.

You are sweating. Because it's hot.

Yeah. Sarge, I can't find it.

Aidan Shawcross file.

I do have the folder
it should be in, though.

Even has his name on it - look -

but...no file.

What a thing.

I wonder where it could have got to.

OK, stop messing us around!
Where is it?

I mean, I guess, it could have ended
up in the overflow storage room.

I could go and have a look
if you want.

If that's not too much effort!

What's going on with that guy?
I know!

Talk about twitchy, eh? Yeah.

JP, I'm just on the way
back from the Verdinikov house.

Just wanted to see if there's any
developments your end.

Well, what about
DS Bordey and Marlon?

Any joy at the mortuary?

Right. Well, I'm sure they'll let us
know if they find anything.

What the...

TYRES SCREECH

Ohh!

Stay on him!

OK, drive!

OK, he's heading to the harbour.

You need to go to
the end of the main street

and then turn right,
then right again.

TYRES SCREECH

Hit the brakes NOW!

Ooft!

HE GROANS

Godrell James, you're under arrest.

Oh... What happened?

Oh...

She's quite a piece of work,
isn't she?

She's amazing, sir.

She's just so amazing. Yeah.

NEVILLE SIGHS

Well, Godrell's not talking.

Literally won't say a word.

Which makes me think
he must know something about

what happened 20 years ago. Well,
if Godrell James was implicated

in faking Aidan Shawcross' death,

and Pasha was about to confess, that
does give Godrell motive. Hmm.

But if it was Godrell
that shot Pasha,

it still doesn't explain why
Aidan's prints were on the gun.

And we're still left asking,

if Aidan didn't die
in that car crash...

Then whose dead body was found
in a burnt-out car wreck in 2001?

And I'm afraid I'm unable to provide
an answer to that question.

The grave was exhumed first thing

and initial comparison
of dental works

with our missing persons' files
has produced no match.

So, as of now,

we have a second possible
murder victim on our hands,

but no idea who it is.

PHONE RINGS

Oh, that's the hospital.

I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah.

Yes?

Yes, Camille speaking.

OK.

Yeah. I'll come now.

Is... Is everything all right?

Um...

There's a complication.

A bleed, they said, on the brain.

I'm sorry, I need to go.

Maman, tu vas bien.
Je suis la, d'accord?

Tu vas bien. J'attends ici.

Tu vas bien!

HE SIGHS

OK, sir.

Yeah, thanks.

They're taking her into theatre

to try and reduce
the build-up of pressure of blood.

They'll call if there's any news.

I think maybe it's time
we pressed pause on this case.

If it's all right, sir,
we'd like to keep on working.

Just until we know Catherine's
going to be all right. Yeah.

We need to catch
whoever did this to her. OK.

So, what have we got?

Well, actually, sir,

Marlon and I came up with
a possible new lead. OK.

So, I was going through
the photos on Pasha's laptop,

and there's this photo
from 20 years ago

when Aidan was staying at the house.

We noticed in one of them
that there's somebody else there

working for the Verdinikovs.
Marlon called the family accountant

and he dug out her info. It turns
out it's somebody Maggie took on

to help out with the housework.

Her name is Francelle Adams.

Adams?

As in Delford Adams?

She's Delford's mum.

And check this. After working
there for a couple of years,

there was a big
falling-out in the house

and then they sacked her.

So Delford has cause for grievance
with the Verdinikovs.

Look, my mum didn't steal nothing.

I know that's what they said when
they let her go, but it ain't true.

Why are you working for
the Verdinikovs all this time later?

I assume
neither Grace nor Maggie know?

So her name didn't ring any bells?

They never cottoned on.

So, why are you
working for the same family

that fired your mum 20 years ago?

Everything went wrong for me
after Mum lost her job.

And that's when
you started turning to crime?

I wanted to help with the rent.

Stealing or dealing
was the only way I could.

And you've been in
and out of prison ever since.

It's the first proper job I had.

And it felt all right, you know?

Regular money, not looking
over my shoulder all the time.

And Mr and Mrs Verdinikov
were good to me.

So you just forgot about
what happened to your mum?

Inspector, I swear to you, I would
never have shot Mr Verdinikov

over what he did
to my mother 20 years ago.

I just wouldn't.

OK.

That's all for now, Delford.

What does Francelle have to say?

Well, she had no idea
he got the job with the Verdinikovs.

She didn't know what to make of it.

But interestingly, though, it still
rankles her after all these years,

her getting fired. Yeah. She swears
blind she didn't steal a thing.

She's innocent. She reckons
she was set up by the family.

Just no clue as to why.

Hmm.

Who are you praying for?

For me?

For all of us.

There's no news yet, Inspector.

We're just waiting and hoping.

Um... I'll call you back shortly.

She's out of surgery and, um...

What? What? What is it?

Well, it went as well as it could,
but with something like this,

there's a chance she, um...

Well, if the brain was left damaged,
she might not come round,

and if she doesn't wake up...
It's OK.

It's OK.

It's going to be OK.

OK. It's going to be OK.

The last couple of days,
all I keep thinking is

how I've put off
coming back to visit.

Life's busy, I tell her.

I'll come another time.

Now all I want...

..is to make it up to her.

Spend more time together.

The two of us.

What if I don't get the chance?

I... I need some air.

Please...

..just make her well.

I, uh...

I'm sure she'll be
all right, you know?

Not that I'm a doctor.

Or medically trained
in any way, for that matter.

But you're offering
your opinion nonetheless.

Just trying to help, that's all.
Yeah. Well, just don't.

No, of course.

Fair enough.

It's just my point was - or is -

that they're a hardy bunch,
the French, aren't they?

What?

Stoic. Always have been.

Look at Joan of Arc.

Or Napoleon.

He didn't give up without a fight.

Obviously, there was Waterloo,
but even that didn't quite

finish the little fella off.
Do you really think this is helping?

Probably not, no.

Sorry.

Never been my strong suit,
this sort of thing.

You can say that again!

But if there's one thing
I know more than anyone,

one thing I've learned...

..it's that feeling regret

about things you never did...

..or you never said...

..it's...

Well, it's a waste of time.

All that matters is how
we act in the here and now.

In this moment.

What should I do?

Take this chance while you have it.

To go and be there with her.

To hold her hand and just...

Just let her know that...

..that you love her.

And then what?

I...

I think if you do that, then...

..maybe she'll be all right.

It's as simple as that?

Cammy...

SHE GASPS

Maman?

You're awake.

Are you all right?

Nurse!

ALARM BEEPS
Nurse!

Hey...

Selwyn!

What are you doing here?
We were worried about you.

But it seems we didn't need to be.

I should give you both some time.

And there's something
I need to go and do.

Hey...

It was 20 years ago.

I was called to
this very stretch of road.

I was a DI back then.

And down there, we found
the burnt-out shell of a car.

Inside it, we found
the charred remains of a body.

That same body
you identified, Godrell,

as being Aidan Shawcross.

SELWYN LAUGHS

Ah...

I am sick and tired
of playing games.

I nearly lost a dear friend of mine
last night.

This has to stop.

And it has to stop now.

It was Aidan
who approached me first.

I knew there was
another guy involved,

but I didn't realise
it was that pianist fella.

I was just a mortuary
assistant back then,

but I reckon
that's why they chose me.

Because I was...persuadable.

Money? 50,000.

I ain't never seen
that much in my life.

I thought, "All I've got to do
is fake some papers."

Ain't like it's me killing anybody.

What documents did you forge?

The fella they were going to
get drunk and put in that car,

I got his medical
and dental records and I...

Altered Aidan's records to match.

And this man,

the one they murdered,

who was he?

Just some drunkard they knew.

Might even have been homeless.

The whole point was,

it was no-one anyone was
going to miss, you know?

And his name?

I think it began with an L.

Like ...o or Leon or something.

The Aidan Shawcross file was
missing from the mortuary archives.

Why?

A couple of weeks back,

I came into work and
the mortuary had been broken into.

When I saw the door to
the archive busted open,

I knew someone was
digging up the past.

And it wouldn't be long
before I was sat here...

..in front of you.

Take him to the cells, please.

Come on.

So someone was on
to Aidan and Pasha,

suspected what they'd done,

stole Aidan Shawcross's
mortuary file as proof.

So was it revenge, then?

Is that why Pasha had to die?

But who wanted revenge?

We're still no closer to working out
just who it was that did this.

Or how they did it.

Thank you.

Commissioner, what's going on?

Why is everyone cleaning,
and why are you watering the plants?

It's the inspector's idea.

And a real bottom-of-the-barrel
one at that.

As we hit a brick wall, he thought
that by distracting ourselves

from the problem at hand,

it might inadvertently
help us solve it.

By cleaning?

He likes to clean.

DS Bordey! You're back.

Yeah.

But no success
with the case, I gather.

I'm afraid not.

We're trying the rather unorthodox
approach of distracting ourselves.

Hmm.
BOOM!

Sir, did you put
something in the microwave?

Yeah. I'm cleaning it.

One part vinegar and one part water.

Put it on high for seven minutes
and it steams off all the grease.

Well, it looks like you've got

an exploding bowl, sir. Yeah!

Yeah...

It does, doesn't it?

One part vinegar to one part water.

Yeah. That might do it.

Pop it all in the microwave,

push the button
and then all you have to do is...

..wait for it to go ping!

But in that case, that means
the answer lies in the past.

JP, can I use this to
access birth records? Uh, yeah.

Let me...

KEYBOARD CLICKS

I'm just logging in.

There.

KEYBOARD CLICKS

Liam Anthony Baskin.

Who is he?

He's the man whose body
we exhumed from the grave yesterday.

He's also the man that Aidan
and Pasha killed 20 years ago.

So you know who killed Pasha?

Yes, sir, I think I do.

NEVILLE CLEARS HIS THROAT

Sorry to have kept you all waiting,

but you'd never have forgiven me if
I hadn't got all my ducks in a row.

I take it you're about to reveal
who it was that killed my husband?

Yes! And also, why they did it.

Because the motive in this crime
can also help us to solve

the murder of a man called
Liam Anthony Baskin.

20 years ago,
Liam Baskin was the boyfriend

of a young woman who worked here.

Her name was Francelle.

I remember her.
I took her on to help me out.

But do you remember her surname?

No.

It was Adams.

Francelle Adams.

She's the mother of Delford Adams.

And Liam Anthony Baskin
is Delford's father.

It's certainly what it says
on your birth certificate.

Ms O'Connell, perhaps you can
help me fill in some of the details.

What do you remember
about Francelle's boyfriend Liam?

Well, occasionally,
he'd turn up to meet her.

Always the worse for wear

and asking for money.

Then we wouldn't see him
for months on end.

He was trouble, that man.

Which is how I assume
Aidan and Pasha became aware of him,

and why they chose him
to be the man that they got drunk

and put in a car
one fateful night in 2001.

Completely oblivious
to what was going on...

..Liam was driven over
the cliffs at Baho Point.

CRASH!

To put it bluntly,
he was collateral damage,

considered expendable,

in the attempt to fake
Aidan Shawcross's death.

EXPLOSION

Now, can anyone remember
why Francelle was sacked

around the same time?

Mr Shawcross said
he'd seen her stealing money.

Which was a lie.

I can only assume that
he and Pasha felt that

the girlfriend of the victim
was best out of the way.

Which, of course,
is why we're all here, isn't it?

Because with dogged determination,
you, Delford,

you solved a murder case that
the police didn't even know existed.

The murder of your father.

Liam Baskin.

When we spoke to Francelle just now,

it seems that
you weren't ever really convinced

that Liam had just
gone off the radar,

like he had so many times before.

His father was absent for
a lot of Delford's childhood.

You always felt
there was more to it,

and we can't be exactly sure
how you worked it all out,

but we do know two things.

Two weeks ago,
the local mortuary was broken into

and Aidan Shawcross' file
was stolen.

We believe it was you
who committed the break-in.

Because you needed proof that
Aidan's records had been doctored

to match those of your father's.

So you took the file and
compared it with Liam's old dental

and medical records. They confirmed
everything you suspected.

And getting
a job at the Verdinikov house

meant that you could have access
to any extra information you needed.

Including the opportunity to snoop
and find Pasha's secret mobile.

You knew Pasha was
still in contact with Aidan.

For final confirmation,
all you needed to do

was follow Pasha the next time
he went to visit Aidan.

Which brings us to
the day of the murder

exactly a week ago.

On that day,
Pasha was in his music room,

but he planned that afternoon to go
to Sainte Helene to visit Aidan.

Of course, he couldn't
let anyone know what he was up to.

When we recovered
Pasha's CD player from the seabed,

there was a CD inside it.

Pasha's music.

I think Pasha put that CD
on repeat before he left

and you, Delford, followed him.

We asked around the harbour.

Pasha wasn't the only one
who hired a boat on that day.

DELFORD: I had to see for myself.

So I followed Pasha
to Sainte Helene.

To Aidan Shawcross' house.

And that's where
you came across Aidan's gun

and, I assume,
the silencer that accompanied it.

When Pasha visited
his friend at the hospice,

you must have been thrown
to discover

that Aidan was already dying.

And I guess, seeing that he only had
a few days left to live,

you felt that
his punishment had been served.

As for Pasha, you could still
make him pay in the way you wanted.

So, that evening,
when Pasha was in his music room...

..you forced open the locked door...

This is for my father.

..and pulled the trigger.

With the gun silenced,
nobody heard the shot.

With Pasha dying, you took
the expensive music equipment

to make it seem like a burglary.

You then ran the few minutes
to the nearby cliffs

and disposed of both
the stolen gear and the gun.

Now, we didn't find
a silencer on the seabed,

but that's because
we wasn't looking for one.

I'm pretty sure when we go back
it'll be there.

But if Delford had used
the silencer,

then who fired the gunshot
that we heard? No-one did.

There was no gun fired,

apart from the silenced one
that was used to kill Pasha.

But I heard it. We all did.

Well, there was a fire burning
the evening of Pasha's murder.

And I think that, before you brought
the flowers in for Grace...

..you dropped a bullet
into the smouldering embers.

It wouldn't take long
for it to heat up and explode.

It wouldn't actually fire the bullet
but it would have sounded

exactly like it had.
BANG!

And that's why it had to be
a burglar that killed Pasha,

because you were with his wife Grace
when he appeared to be shot.

Except for one thing.

One last dying act on Pasha's part.

Knowing he had only
a few seconds to live,

he staggered over to his music stool

and he left us a message.
Two letters - AS.

We know Pasha was about to
confess his involvement

in faking Aidan Shawcross' death
20 years ago.

And that's how he did it.

JP, Marlon, make the arrest.

Leave it!

I want to talk to him.

You nearly took my mother
away from me.

I want to hear it from you.

Why?

I saw her talking to Pasha
that day on the harbourside,

and I realised if she ever told
anyone she'd seen him,

or it came out he'd been to
Sainte Helene to visit Aidan,

then everything would unravel.

That's when I knew
I had to stop her from talking.

So you decided to kill her?

My father was murdered!

And for what?

To be buried in a grave
with someone else's name on it!

He was used!

Like a piece of meat
thrown to the dogs!

So why should I care about
anyone else's life...

..when no-one...

..no-one care about his?

You know...

..you are an immensely annoying
human being, Inspector.

Yes, sir.
You've mentioned that before.

I know. It bears repeating.

But you are also
an excellent detective,

and despite my many reservations,

you are beginning to
prove yourself rather valuable

to our police force.

I'm glad to hear that, sir.

So, as I'm due some leave,

I thought maybe
we could go away, the two of us,

find a quiet island somewhere

and do some catching up?

I'd like that so much, Cammy.

I know you would!

Oh, hey, guys!

Come on in!

Have a seat.
Drinks are on the house.

Is that right, Maman? Evidemment.

Oh, you're back!

I can't believe you're here.
I'm so happy to see you.

I'm so happy to see you too!

Neville told me what happened.
I mean, are you OK?

Is Catherine all right? Yes, look.

She's fine. Just has to
take it easy for a while.

Oh, which means...

I'm covering the bar!

And they want drinks,
so excusez-moi!

I'll give you a hand. Thank you.

So, when are you heading
back to Paris?

Oh, not for a couple of weeks.

Maman and I are going to go away
and spend some time together.

Something I'm going to make sure
we do a little bit more of

in the future.
Yeah. It's not easy, is it,

living thousands of miles away
from your loved ones? No.

But then, sometimes
we don't have that much of a say

in our life choices. We just
go where we feel we should be.

Yeah.

Although Maman tells me
there is someone here

who could be
a loved one for you, perhaps?

I don't know what you're talking
about. Come on, it's obvious.

The way you look at her.

You like her.

Shouldn't we be
getting these drinks over?

Oh, here comes
the English modesty again.

I told you before, DS Bordey,

nothing wrong with that.
Yeah, I guess.

Hey! Hey! Drinks.

Yes, nice. Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you.

Oh, Neville, I must return
the book you lent me.

Oh, great, thanks, Catherine.

Um... You know what?

While we've got it here,

why don't we have a bit of
an impromptu pub quiz?

Nice. Oh, yes.

OK. Here we go.

Question one. Where
in the world would you find a car

with a vehicle registration plate
containing the letter V?

Vatican City.

Ohh! One point to the commissioner.
Wow! Well done, sir.

OK. Question number two.

How many sides does
a heptadecagon have?

17.

How the hell do you know that?

OK. Question three.

Which is the only letter in Scrabble
to be worth five points?

K. Come on!

No, no, no. That's too quick.

That's not humanly possible.
He must be cheating.

Yeah. Can you see the answers
from where you're seated, sir?

Maybe you should move seats,
Commissioner.

I'll do no such thing.

Cheers to the champion!

Oi-oi!

All aboard HMS Party! Woohoo!

BOTH: Three, two, one...

THEY YELL

A harpoon through the chest.

What a way to go.

The Pan-Caribbean
Police Training Board

are reviewing your training scheme.

Nothing says co-operation more than
a group of drunk Brits abroad.

You need to take this seriously.

I shouldn't be enjoying
her company this much.

We need to talk about this.
