Previously on Recipe'’s for Love and Murder...

Let's see who needs our help.

I have a plan that'll allow my daughter and I to leave.

I'll be a real as your story so that's not

more important than actually finding the killer.

Two citizens been murdered and the big

bad detective has no idea who did it.

You ask a lot of questions.

She's a reporter, it's her job.

My cousin that works at Koop wants to talk about Martine.

- What about her? - He didn't say.

That's why I'm going over there.

I see your tabloid has run another article highlighting

a black worker claiming he's been mistreated.

I finally got that bloody lawyer on the phone.

Paper work's ready.

The three Koop franchises, we spoke about it.

Robertson Worcester 'O Siris, all yours.

The car... here.

Many gold four by fours are there in this town.

I miss you.

Miss talking about the old days.

I'll make it.

I'm married though.

How was that?

Fairly convincing.

So...

We're agreed?

Aye.

I don't see what any other options we have.

- And if you're right about the-- - I'm right.

Her mother died two months before Mickey did.

Then we have to do what's right.

For Mickey.

Right then.

Did she, uh, tell Bronwyn

anything about when she'd be home?

Hm-hm... nothing.

We still haven't been able to reach Jared.

He swopped out his shift at the hotel last night.

Are there any other family members you could call?

Call whoever you like.

I understand that you're upset.

We're doing everything that we can to--

My daughter is out there.

Probably in the hands of a killer.

Why are you two still sitting in my living room?

When you should be out there looking for her.

Mommy?

We won't rest until we find her, Celine.

Dead or alive?

The last time anyone saw her

was when she dropped her sister home.

Maria said she was going to meet her cousin at the Koop.

Were you able to find the cousin?

...email any work after that?

Did you pull all of her phone records?

I should've gone with her to the Koop.

- Keep in comms. - Okay. Okay.

You're going to tell me everything that you know.

Maybe you should just try to go to sleep.

Sleep?

You have used all sorts of bogus excuses

to keep us out of the investigation

and now Jessie is missing.

She's might even be...

We're going to talk.

And we're going to do so right now.

All our cops are on the ground now.

With more coming from Montagu and Robertson.

So let us know if you hear anything,

or think of anything else.

Thank you, Piet.

Bring her back to me.

I should've stopped her.

All this investigative business.

No! Ma... no.

I should've put a stop to that.

Ma... nobody can stop Jessie when she's decided on something.

It's gonna be okay.

Sounds like the only thing that you and Jessie

did not know about was the money.

The money?

Martine deposited small amounts of money

adding up to 100,000 into a new account weeks before her death.

F-f-from...

Well, there's lot of people that we know it wasn't.

Dirk... Anna...

- Marius Rabie? - No, it doesn't seem likely.

We checked his alibis for both murders.

And Piet's looking into the finances in case.

She wrote to me that... she had a plan

for her and her daughter to leave Dirk.

Well, a hundred thousand rands will definitely

help you with that.

It's a very small piece of land really.

Your great aunt sold the farmland off about a decade ago.

She probably got too old to run after sheep.

I know the house.

There's a beautiful garden.

Well, your mother would never sell.

Nostalgic business about growing up there.

I've spoken to the realtor there.

And I think it will sell very quickly.

I won't be selling either.

What...

Hattie! What?

Jessie's boots!

- Any sign of forced entry? - Not that I've seen.

- Who has the keys? - Umm...

Me, Maria, Jessie a-a-and Doep.

If someone has Jessie they could've taken her keys.

Fried.

That will really ruin your pan.

What kind of person do you have to be...

The Koop will be open soon, I'm going to go there

see if anyone saw her yesterday.

Maria, there are cops there this morning

interviewing the warehouse staff,

you should stay with me.

'Cause you've done such a great job

of keeping us safe so far?

Jessie's already missing. You want to join her?

- You should listen to me. - I have been listening to you.

- I'm trying to protect you. - I don't need protecting!

I think he's just trying to help, Maria.

Good, but, I'm going to the last place I know my friend went.

You be careful, Maria.

Is Jared September at work today?

Good morning, can I help you?

Is Jared September at work today?

- I already talked to the cops. - I'm not a cop.

I'm afraid he's not on the schedule for today.

I'm sorry about your friend, eh. Police said she's missing.

- Did you see Jared yesterday? - Yes.

But there was nothing unusual, he was just working.

Took a few smoke breaks.

- And Jessie? Did you see her? - I don't think so.

- You don't think so? - I often see her here.

But I think the last time I noticed Jessie was...

A few days ago, she was in here with her brother and sister

arguing about... that I suppose or something.

- Could I see Martine's office? - I don't know about that.

That you must ask Mr. Van Wyk.

He's on his way.

- Okay, thank you. - Thank you.

You make sure you knock on every door on that side.

You do the same this way. Okay?

- Hey - Hey, dad, how's the murder?

It's not a joke, Khazi.

Jeez, it's not my fault your job is gross.

Listen, things are hectic here, what do you need?

- Is everything okay? - Well, there's woman is missing.

And most likely the murderer has her.

What do you need? Is 500 rand enough?

Yeah, 500 is fine.

I-I-I hope you find her.

Me too.

- Morning, sir. - Morning.

- Should you be here? - It's my shift, sir.

Your girlfriend is missing. You haven't rested.

- I'm not going to. - I understand that.

But are you able to fulfil your police duties--

Please, okay. I need to be here.

I need to find her, I'm taking the calls and I'm dealing

with walk ins, but I'll escalate to Piet if need be.

But I have to be here.

The briefing packs for Robertson, do you have them?

Yes, sir, it's... um, it's packed and ready.

- If Maria-- - Should I...

Should I get her on the phone for you, sir?

No, you call her. Just make sure she's okay.

She'll hate it if I do it.

Thought your colleague who was the investigator.

Always zooming around town on that lil' scooter of hers.

Digging for clues.

- We're a team. - Oh!

Yeah.

This's the first time anyone's been in here since the police.

Found any clues, Tannie Sherlock?

Mr. Rabie, I wasn't expecting you.

Perhaps you've been underestimating me.

I'm sure I don't know what you mean.

I should've expect you to act all innocent.

- But I'm on to you. - Mr. Rabie.

I'm having an incredibly stressful day.

Because my colleague and friend is missing

presumed kidnapped by a known killer.

So if you have something to s-say, can you just say it?

Typical woman. Trying to use your emotions on me.

This is why you'll never succeed as chair of the business forum.

You really are pathetic, aren't you?

You can keep your business forum, Mr. Rabie.

I know all about your plans.

I'm going to meet with Mr. Van Wyk today

to ensure that we put a stop to this uprising.

Could you just leave now?

You'll be sorry.

I'm sorry about a lot of things.

Upsetting you is never gonna be one of them.

You can't lock me up forever.

No...

But you'll probably get about six months or so.

For what, being a better shot than Dirk?

Unlicensed firearm?

Reckless endangerment?

Then there's a few years for stealing an ambulance.

We were always going to give it back.

Assaulting a police officer.

There's definitely a few months for that.

I'm not sure about the charges concerning John, but...

the boss is talking about conspiracy to commit murder.

You don't know what it's like.

Losing the love of your life.

Nothing matters anymore.

Step away.

- I want Tannie Maria. - Hey!

We're not playing these games with you anymore, okay?

- I'll only talk to her. - She's busy.

I really don't think there's a story here.

Well, you can go, I can lock up after.

Security first, I'm afraid.

I won't steal anything, I promise you.

Okay, look, ahem, I do have a meeting coming up very soon.

I'm going to have to do some preparation for it.

Thank you. You've been very kind.

I-I'll get out of your hair straight away.

Hope this wasn't a waste of time.

No, definitely not!

Boss!

- It's not Marius. - Definitely not?

He handed over his financials willingly.

That might be arrogance.

The forensic accountants seems satisfied.

Guy might be criminal in other regards, but I have to admit...

his books are clean. Every cent accounted for.

Plus he has alibis for both murders.

- Could have hired someone. - I really don't think so.

Maria? Did Regardt speak to her?

She's not picking up.

But I'll send a car over to her house.

- Maybe she's just be mad at us. - At me you mean.

Oh, yes boss, I thought it would be rude to say so.

Just do what you need to do.

Is she okay?

I couldn't tell you.

Sometimes wish Martine had never written to her.

I'd hate for Jessie and Maria to be killed just because...

Please tell your uncle that, uh, it's a kind offer.

But I don't think money will help.

He's willing to offer a big reward.

Big rewards for information lead to big lies.

No, I understand, you might not have faith in our policing

but we're trying everything in our power to solve this case.

I know, we just thought that...

Jared, thanks for calling back.

You also need to eat, Bronnie.

I'm so sorry, Auntie Charlene.

I was out of town, and I had no idea Jessie was gone until now.

Dirk?

Hello?

Maria, Tannie Maria, was she here?

Yes, she was in here earlier.

She asked me if I'd seen her friend.

And she asked if she can see in Martine's office.

- Mr. Van Wyk opened it for her. - Is he here?

So what else can you tell me?

I didn't tell her that I saw Jessie last night.

I thought that's a police investigation

th-that's not just something you tell the public.

And when did you see Jessie?

Jessie came in around closing to speak to Jared.

- You know what about? - I don't know, they're cousins.

Maybe they were just having a catch up.

I didn't hear it, but...

I think he told Jessie about the pomegranate juice.

I only noticed because...

I was the one who had to sign for the stock

when we take it to the shelves.

And everyone kept saying that Martine bought the juice

or Anna bought the juice.

I told you Anna bought it.

Mr. Can Wyk said he was certain, he said he saw her

and I thought I remembered it.

But I checked.

And we never signed the stock onto the shelves.

So it was still in the warehouse.

Or it should've been.

There's only one person that can take stock

without signing for it.

Dirk, it's okay, it's just me. It's just Maria...

And that's the boss.

Give me the phone.

I said give me the phone.

Back... move, Tannie Maria, move... move!

Come on, that's it.

Quickly.

That's it, keep going.

That's it, keep going.

To the car please, Tannie Maria.

- Where are we going? - Just somewhere, quiet.

'Til I get back the stuff Martine stole from me.

Maybe you know where it is.

Where's Jessie?

You're a good little girl, maybe your colleague will live.

No, no, no, no, you drive. You drive.

Quickly.

You need to come into the station to make a statement.

My shift only finishes at five.

You're going to come with me right now.

Or I'll arrest you for obstructing justice.

There's no need to be like that. I'm not the killer, officer.

- Come. - Sheryl, look here.

Come, come, come, let's go.

I'm a cashier not the killer.

Let's go.

Why didn't you tell the police this?

I told them now. I called them. And I'm gonna go there.

But I had to come here and see you, Auntie Charlene.

And say sorry.

So, you told Jessie first because

she wanted to know the scoop.

Jessie always wanted to know first.

I thought I could give her the headlines.

She would've said something last night.

I didn't have any signal.

And I only just got back into town.

I'm so sorry, Auntie Charlene.

Are you sure?

I think it was blackmail.

I want a lawyer, stop holding me.

Piet, I know who paid Martine.

I know who drugged the pomegranate juice.

- Van Wyk. - Van Wyk.

Get out.

No, not there.

You can wait in here.

Jessie?

Where is she?

- Where is she? - Sorry its stuffy in there.

Open, I can see it.

Jessie!

Not this again.

You've got to stop moping over your mum's death.

She's only been dead a week.

It's sad. I understand.

But nobody wants to look at a sad face all day long, do they?

Of course not, sorry.

Mickey, give it to me.

- No, no... - Give it to me.

Mickey, don't. No, please, please.

The look on your face.

Ah!

Cheer up love.

How would you like your eggs today?

Scrambled.

I can't really trust you to poach them

when you're gonna like this.

Um...

Okay.

I'm sorry. No, don't!

You're sorry?

You obviously know Mr. Van Wyk well.

Excuse me, there's nothing going on with us.

- I'm an engaged woman. - No, no, no.

I meant you're smart, you pay attention.

Have you ever been to Mr. Van Wyk's house?

He had a staff party there two years ago.

It's actually lovely.

- Oh, so he's a good boss to you. - Yes, he's a good boss.

And apart from that time that you were at the house

did you ever see Mr. Van Wyk outside of work?

Now, I know, that you're not in that

kind of a relationship with him.

But you're a trusted employee.

Well, he took my dad hunting once.

Is that something he enjoyed? Hunting.

Yeah, my dad said

he managed to hit the kudu but he only wounded it.

But Van Wyk, yo!

He took it down with one hit, my dad was so thrilled.

He'd only ever managed to kill something small

like a rabbit before.

So was there...

any particular place that he liked to go hunting?

He took my dad to his cabin.

Where's this cabin?

I don't know.

Somewhere in the mountains, but not far.

He picked my dad up and then he took him there.

- Could you call him and ask him? - I can't.

Someone's life is on the line here!

He's dead!

My dad passed away last year.

I'm hungry.

Get up.

What recipe would you recommend, hmm?

Shut up, you don't say a word, do you hear me?

Marius.

Did you forget our appointment, Cornel?

No, it completely slipped my mind.

Something else came up for me at the last minute.

Yeah, well, Hattie's planning to overthrow me

and she's coming for your job too.

No for sure.

I'm certain we'll come up with a plan

to put Hattie Wilson in her place.

Good, I'm sick of the women in this town.

Oh, and uh, thanks for the deposit.

But uh, when will you be paying the rest?

I'm working on it.

Ill call you tomorrow.

Now as I was saying, I'm hungry.

Maria!

Maria!

You tell me where your friend is.

You're gonna cook for me.

Where's Jessie? What've you done with her?

Jessie?

She interviewed me last night.

- Things got a little heated. - Where is she?

- I haven't seen her all day. - You're a liar.

Dear Tannie Maria

an employee of mine wouldn't keep her nose

out of my business and when she kept demanding more bribes

I had to let her go.

Ah! Ah, Jessie!

Ah! God!

Open the lid, open it.

Now, fresh.

Killed today. Hmm?

Killed with this little beauty, hmm?.

So, Tannie Maria.

When you're ready.

Martine, Martine is like me, really.

She accused me of stealing

from the employee's pensions.

But then she kept demanding... blackmail money,

where did she think that was coming from? Hmm?

I was gonna pay everything back

as soon as the deal went through.

I care for my staff, Tannie.

But Martine was so very greedy.

But I had to steal more from the pension fund.

She only thinks about herself.

I-I-I even took her...

her favourite juice, the pomegranate juice.

She was gonna expose me.

She was gonna make sure I was going to prison.

Splash my name across all the front pages.

It's all Martine's fault.

Lawrence, Jessie too, all her fault.

I like my steak medium rare.

Now, please!

- For Jessie. - Oh, Jessie.

Yeah, she thought she was so damn bright.

She didn't even figure out that Martine was blackmailing me.

Did she do that?

Yeah.

I gotta give you credit.

Hmm... you spotted the blackmail.

Smart little cookie.

You see all those carcasses out there in the shed.

I did that, I killed everything here.

That's how I knew I could do it.

That's how I knew I could kill a human.

Should've used the crossbow though.

Thwack!

I had to make it look like a lover's fight.

I knew everyone would blame Dirk.

You are charged with weapons and danger, come on.

It was her!

Maria must've figured out Martine

has been blackmailing Van Wyk.

And Van Wyk found Maria.

Lawrence-Lawrence you see,

he saw my car when I was dealing with Martine.

Thought he was so clever, began to threaten me.

No, please, please--

Selfish selfish man.

Just like Martine.

I was gonna leave it all there.

Then you bloody women, you wouldn't let it go.

I tried to warn you, I really did.

I tried to make Hattie listen.

If only Hattie would listen.

Sweet Hattie!

We would be so good for each other.

You-you-you should tell her that.

You tell her that I am not like Dirk Burger.

I don't like hurting women.

Jessie!

Did you even work out what kind of meat that is?

Very lean.

Too lean for kudu.

It's not even a kind of buck.

But it is a fresh kill.

I had to do a very different kind of hunting today.

Thank you for the steak.

But I'm afraid it's too late for Jessie.
