I think that's my mother's
house. I've never met her.

Dorna passed away.
A few months back, it was.

It was an accident. A storm came in.

This is Dorna Bray.

I'm at sea.

She was talking about
scattering her dad's ashes

just on the beach out here.

Well, if that's true,
why did she then decide

to scatter them out at sea instead?

Has Selwyn told you about
what's happening tomorrow?

The person taking over
from him arrives.

I wish you the very best
with everything you do.

The Commissioner gave me the go-ahead
to reopen my mum's case.

I've already been down the harbour,

putting up posters asking any
new witnesses to come forward.

The thing that really gets me
with this -

why would anyone want her dead?

Good morning, Dorna.

Oh. Morning, Jamal.

That's for you. Thank you.

Look at you.

Hidden in the dark there.

It's not right, is it?

Maybe it's time I let you go.

Hmm...the weather not great, but...

..I reckon we'll be all right.

Harbour master.

This is Dorna Bray. I'm at sea.

I need your help now!

What are your coordinates?

I have no GPS.

There's no land in sight.

I don't know where I am.

Hello? Hello?

Hello, miss?

GULLS CRY

So this case,
the Inspector's mother -

must be really tough for him.
I reckon it must.

And I really want to
help him solve it. It's just...

..all we know
is that she drowned at sea.

There's no weapon...

..no suspects...

..no apparent motive.

Mm-hm.

So what exactly
are we searching her house for?

You know what?

I'm not entirely sure myself.

But maybe we'll know when we find
it.

Mrs Clemetson, we're moving forward

with the investigation into
Dorna's death,

so we might have some more
questions.

PHONE RINGS
Oh, sorry.

Um...
CLEARS HER THROAT
Sorry.

So you really think that
someone might have killed her?

We're working on that basis.

Well, then, whatever questions
you got, you feel free to ask.

Sarge, I've got the Inspector
on the line.

He wants to speak with you.

Said you're not answering your
phone.

Well, what's the point of voicemail

if you're not going to use it?

Sarge! Got the Inspector on the
line.

Wants to talk to you. Said
you're not answering the phone.

How is he even doing that?

I'm here, sir.
What do you need?

All right. Thanks,
Officer Rose. I've got her.

DS Thomas, I've found
something of interest.

You should head back to the station.

OK. Well, I'm almost done...

And he's hung up.

Your Inspector Wilson he's very...

BOTH: Yes, he is.

So I was going over
my mum's phone records.

And in the last year,
this number kept coming up.

17 phone calls, 28 texts.

It was registered to...

..a Roy Palmer.

I recognise him.

He runs and owns the Fishing Net.

That's the bar we were at last
night.

Go figure.

Anyway, I asked for the transcript

of their text messages
to be sent over,

and it looks like they were friends.

But it was the last text
that Dorna sent to Roy

that caught my interest.

"Thanks for coming by.
It was good to talk."

That was sent two hours before
she drowned, which tells me

he must have visited her
earlier that morning.

So he's a possible new witness?

HE EXHALES
Most definitely, yes.

PHONE RINGS

DS Thomas speaking.

OK.

Thanks for letting me know.

Sir, that was the lab.

They've got the boat wreckage
from storage.

Thought we'd give it a second look.

Are you heading to the harbour?

Yes, I am.

for some old-school dancehall vibes.

Finally, just a word of warning -

some bad weather coming in today.

Authorities have put a high
risk warning out overnight,

saying there's a Category 4
storm brewing up

just off the east coast.

So if you had any plans
to head out to sea today,

authorities are advising against it.

Best thing is to stay inside
and stay safe.

KNOCK ON DOOR

Hey, Dorna.

Eh-eh! Roy, what are you doing here?

I woke up this morning
thinking about your dad.

Doesn't get any easier, does it?

It just made me want to
come over, check in,

see how you're doing.

Come in. I'll make some iced tea.

So you didn't know
we were police

when we were in last night?

Ha!

I make a point
of not sticking my nose

in my customers' business,
Inspector. Fair enough.

Unless they're talking cricket,
in which case you cannot shut me up.

My specialist subject,
if I ever go on Mastermind.

Are you a fan at all?

I'm a football man myself.

Ah! And we were getting on so well!

ROY CHUCKLES

So this case we're working on
Dorna Bray.

You knew her, right?

Yeah, yeah.

Um...to be honest, it was
her dad I was closer with.

He was a regular here.

And it was through him you met Dorna?

Yeah.

When Ervin got ill - dementia -
she moved back in with him,

and that was about a year
before he passed.

I used to, you know, check in

on the old boy pretty regularly.

And then when we lost him, I just...

..tried to be there
for Dorna as well.

It's just that Dorna texted you
the day she died,

said, "Thanks for coming by.
It was good to talk."

Oh. Yeah. What that was, I...

I'd popped round
earlier that morning, you know,

just to see how she was coping.

And how was she coping?

Well, still missing her dad
dreadfully, of course.

We both were.

Still am.

And did she mention to you

she was thinking of scattering
her dad's ashes that day?

No. She mentioned that
it'd been playing on her mind

that she hadn't done it yet.
But no more than that, no.

I mean, obviously, if I'd known

she was going to do it that day,

I would have warned her against it.

Going out to sea
with a storm coming in?

So she said to you

she was going to scatter
her dad's ashes at sea?

She must have at some point. I...

Do you remember when?
Um...not precisely, no.

It's just that we know
Dorna applied for a permit

to scatter her dad's ashes
on a beach. Mm.

And that was two weeks
before she went to sea.

So I'm just trying to work out why,

and at what point,
she changed her mind.

Yeah, yeah. No, I mean,
that does seem strange, yeah.

Actually, now I come
to think of it, er...

..I think probably...

..maybe it was in that last week

that she mentioned
doing it at sea. I think.

Yeah.

OK. Well, um...thank you, Mr Palmer.

If anything else comes to mind,
you'll let us know, yeah?

Look, Inspector, I...

If you're treating
Dorna's death as suspicious,

what exactly do you think's
happened?

I mean, she went out to sea
in a storm and drowned.

How could that possibly be anything
other than a terrible accident?

Well, we're working on that.

Thanks again, Mr Palmer.
You've been very helpful.

I just keep putting it off.

It's like the final goodbye.

I don't know if I'm ready for that.

I mean, if it's
any consolation at all,

I was exactly the same
when my mother passed.

But when I finally did it,
scattered her ashes...

..it just felt right, you know?

Like a...release. Mm-hm.

For her...and for me.

Hey.

Mm.
GLASSES CLINK

That's it.

Off you go.

DORNA: I need your help now!

HARBOUR MASTER:
What are your coordinates?

I have no GPS.
There's no land in sight.

I don't know where I am.

Hello?
Evening, Inspector.

Hello?

Can we check the GPS
on Dorna's phone,

verify the call came
from where we think it did?

OK.

You've just come back
from the search?

Yeah, but we didn't find anything

of relevance to the case,
I'm afraid. But, um...

..I did find these letters.

Your mum sent them 50 years ago,

not long after giving birth to you.

Right.

And I think they're to your father.

Charlie Wilson.

You...you know him?

I reached out, not long before
I came here, and, um...

..yeah...

..he didn't want to know.

It doesn't look like
he got them, though,

because they were sent back.

I assume it was Dorna
that opened the letters.

I started reading one,
but they're personal.

I think they might explain
why your mother gave you up.

Thank you.

Well, I'll leave you to it.

Mm-hm.

Yeah.

I'll maybe look at these tomorrow.

Yeah.

Definitely tomorrow.

And it's the fact
that Roy Palmer was

the last person to speak to my mum

before she went out to sea
and drowned.

I mean, what exactly
did he say to her?

Oh, no. Please not him.

Good morning!
My two favourite detectives.

DI Wilson and DS...

He's forgotten my name.

Good to see you both.

Definitely forgotten it.

Mr Fox.

Call me Sterling.

I thought we only had the pleasure

of your company
every other Wednesday.

I'll be around for a few days

while I'm still getting up to speed.

Well, aren't we the lucky ones?

I love that about you Londoners -

pretend you're being
all grumpy when you're not.

Cracks me up!

You know what? We should get a
drink sometime, the two of us.

"Shoot the breeze" kind of thing.

Oh, that would be nice for you, sir.

You'd like that, wouldn't you?

Well, I'm not...

Don't worry. I'll email
my secretary right now.

Put something in the diary.

So, er...you were looking
for something?

I dropped by to pick up
some case files.

I'm reviewing all current
and ongoing investigations.

Officer Curtis kindly obliged.

Anyway, I'll get out of your...hair.

STERLING CHUCKLES
Good to see you, Inspector!

Yeah... You're doing it again!

The whole London thing.

Kills me, man.

I cannot believe they got rid
of the Commissioner for...

That...ninny.

Morning, team.

Morning, sir. Morning.

How are we doing here?

Well...we started doing
background on Roy Palmer.

He moved to Saint Marie five
years ago and bought the bar.

Now, I reckon he needed
to leave his life in the UK -

he had just been made
redundant, recently divorced,

and was also done for drunk driving.

I wouldn't say he's exactly
made a go of it financially

since he got here. Checks show...

Just a sec. Sorry.

Officer Rose, what are you doing?

Oh, I saw something online.

It said if there's something
you don't want to forget,

pretend you're holding a doughnut

to remind you there's something
you need to remember.

It's called the doughnut technique.

OK.

Financial checks show

that Mr Palmer has been
overstretched on his mortgage,

and his business
isn't bringing in enough

to cover his outgoings.

OK. Interesting.

All right, Officer Rose.
Doughnut time.

Ohh!

Jaja!

All right.
So the passport records show

that Roy Palmer has been
to the island once before,

but, like, ages ago.

When, exactly?

April 1974.

He would have been 16 at the time.

Stayed at the Palm Royal Hotel
with his parents.

April '74.

That was nine months
before I was born.

You're...you're not saying
Roy Palmer might be...?

No. I'm not.

I know who my father is,
and he's not Roy Palmer.

But it is a coincidence.

Well, I asked the immigration people

to check out your mother,

and she was definitely
on the island April 1974.

Then your father
must have been here, too.

So my mother, my father
and Roy Palmer

were here on Saint Marie
at the exact same time...

..around 50 years ago.

Thanks for coming in, Mr Palmer.

So we know that Dorna Bray
had a relationship

with a teenage lad over 50 years ago.

He was staying here with his
family at the Palm Royal Hotel,

as were you at the exact same time.

Wow!

That is some serious digging
you've been doing.

Well, the first thing to say is,

it was a very long time ago,

so the memory's a bit hazy.
But, yes, you're right.

I did make friends with another lad

who was staying at the Palm Royal.

Charlie, his name was.

We'd spend our days at the beach,

you know, swimming, lazing about.

And there was a bar we hung out at,

called the Flying Fish.

A young local girl worked there.

Dorna. Oh, right.

Right, so she worked there back then?

Mm. Is that relevant?

It's just that we know it's a place

she used to go to more recently.

Somewhere she liked, you know?

I guess she had fond memories
of the place.

Anyway,

she and Charlie
just kind of hit it off.

She started hanging out with us
when she wasn't working,

and they had what I guess you'd call

a kind of holiday romance.

I mean,

it was more than that.

More?

Yeah, I think they fell in love.

They had a couple of weeks together,

saw each other every day, and
then...

..when it came time
for Charlie to go home...

We have to go.

..they had a very tearful goodbye.

OK, so fast-forward 50 years.

Why'd you come back here?

Ah...

I was having a tough time
back in the UK,

and I had some redundancy money,

and I read about a bar,
the Fishing Net,

being up for sale, and...

..I don't know,
after all these years,

it just felt right,
coming back to the island.

And it was just chance - you buy a
bar

where Dorna's father
happened to drink?

That's exactly what it was, yeah.

And eventually you put
two and two together...

I knew that Ervin had a daughter,

but I didn't know her name.

And I never met her, because
she lived on another island.

But then when she came back
to care for him...

It's a small world, isn't it?

Out of curiosity -

the day Dorna Bray drowned,

where were you when the storm hit?

I was at the Fishing Net.
With regulars.

We holed up there
during the bad weather.

I'll... I'll give you their details.

DARLENE: All right.
Thank you for your help.

Inspector?

Dalton Lee and Nathan Armstrong
both confirmed

that they were with Roy Palmer
at his bar

the entirety of the storm.

But interestingly, they said

they had already given a statement.

I, er...I recognise their names

from the coroner's report.

They were waiting at the bar
for Roy to open up

when they saw Dorna
heading out to sea.

They called out to warn her
about the bad weather,

but she didn't hear.

Roy arrived shortly after
and opened up.

It still comes back
to Roy Palmer again.

Something not right about it.

About him. About all of it.

But I have no idea
how he managed to kill a woman

who seemingly
ventured out to sea by herself

in the middle of a storm and drowned.

Excuse me.

All right, doughnut boy,
what have you got?

Totally forgot about that. Heh.

Oi!
CLEARS HIS THROAT

So, in April 1974,

while Roy Palmer was on holiday
with his family,

Palm Royal Hotel reported a theft.

One of their guests had
a very expensive ring stolen.

Now, it was never recovered,

the perpetrator was never arrested,

and it was insured for $80,000.

I'm sure it's worth a lot more now.

I've seen this ring before.

To you, Dorna. Mum.

DS Thomas, you're with me.

Officer Rose, I want you to
go back to Dorna Bray's house -

check all the photographs of her

to see if she's wearing
that ring in any of them.

All right.

See?

It's the same one.

Same shape, same stone.

PHONE RINGS

Seb. Talk to me.

I've got some photos of Dorna.

She looks about 18 in a couple.

And then some when she's a bit
older.

Early 30s, maybe.

And...she's wearing that ring...

..in all of them.

So what are you thinking, sir?

I'm thinking, "Where's the ring
now?"

Because it wasn't on her hand
when she was...

..pulled out of the sea.

So where is it?

You think Roy Palmer might have it?

CAR REVS

Uh... He's back again.

Afternoon!

Officer Curtis said
I'd find you here.

How can we help you?

The Dorna Bray case.

Been reading the file.

She's your mother, right?

Yeah, that's right.

Well, firstly, my condolences.

Truly, I am sorry for your loss.

But secondly, and I'm sorry
to do this to you,

I've spoken with
the Chief Commissioner,

and we need to close it down.

Sorry, what?

The case. You need to close it down.

Why?

Well, as far as the Chief
Commissioner and I can see,

it's costing us time and resources,

and there's not a single piece
of physical evidence

to suggest this is anything
other than an accident.

Well, no, not yet, there isn't,

but we're still waiting
for results to come back.

No, no. No, you're not.

I dropped by at the lab.

The phone call your mother made...

DORNA: I need your help now!

They've confirmed it wasn't a fake.

The phone company
checked GPS tracking,

and it was indeed made
two miles out at sea,

just before she drowned.

I get this case matters to you,
DI Wilson,

but I think your personal
connection with it

is clouding your judgement.

To be honest, we're surprised

Commissioner Patterson ever
gave you the go-ahead on it.

You can't do this.

Well, you see...

HE EXHALES SHARPLY

..I sort of can.

But you don't understand
what we're doing here!

Look! The Chief Commissioner
has spoken,

and there's no coming back on that.

So if you've got a problem with it,

you've got a week left
on your contract here -

we can call it a day right now,

get you back on that plane
to London real quick. Hm?

Mm.

Enjoy your evenings.

Inspector.

I can't believe he's done this!

I knew no good would come
of them replacing Selwyn.

Just two days he's been in charge,

and look what's happened.

He's not got a clue what he's doing.

Yeah, I mean, I know
I've made some mistakes,

and I've still got a lot to learn,

but this guy?

Real idiot!

Huh.

And what about Mervin? How is he?

He's not said much.

Went off on his own,
which is not unusual, but...

..I think he's feeling
pretty crushed.

STERLING: The phone call
your mother made.

They've confirmed it wasn't a fake.

THUNDER CRACKS AND ROLLS

DORNA: This is Dorna Bray.

I'm at sea!

I need help now! Please!
THUNDER CRACKS

HARBOUR MASTER:
What are your coordinates?

I don't... I have no GPS!

There's no land in sight!

I don't know where I am!
THUNDER CRACKS

Hello?

Hello?!

SHE SCREAMS

No!

THUNDER CRASHES
No!

Help!

Please! Someone help me!

I don't know
how you think I can help.

You must be able to do something.

But what?

I no longer have any sway.

You're still the Commissioner
of Police, though,

for a few more days.

Yes, but if Sterling Fox has
the Chief Commissioner's ear,

then I'm as good as outranked.

Even if others still need you?

People have to get used to not
relying on me like they did.

50 years of service to this island,

and now you can just walk away?

Not care any more?

Maybe that's what I need to do.

Maybe that's how I get through this.

By not giving a damn.

Is that really
how you want this all to end?

By turning your back

on everything you used to stand for?

Hmm.

I think you should go now.

There is nothing further
for us to discuss.

Ah...

Selwyn.

Mervin came to Saint Marie
looking for answers.

If he has to leave
without finding them...

..then this island has let him down.

DOOR CLOSES

'Ere, sir.

Do you want to tell us
what's going on?

I'm here to get the case reopened.

How?

Let's just say I have a plan.

Selwyn.

Good morning.

What a beautiful day, right?

You got your uniform on.
HE LAUGHS

You having a leaving party,
or something?

We're here, Mr Fox,

because I'm going to arrest you.

You're going to what? For the damage
you caused my car.

Did he just say
he's going to arrest him?

This is a joke, right?
You know, I think he did.

You're joking. Sterling Fox,

I'm arresting you
for criminal damage.

You do not have to say anything...

Oh, you're not joking.
..but it may harm

your defence if you do not...

Is this actually happening,
or am I dreaming right now?

You know, honey...

..it's really happening.

Officer Rose, handcuffs, please.

Take Mr Fox to the cells.

Best day of my life.

Selwyn, you're making
a big mistake right now.

The Chief Commissioner
is not going to be happy.

Stop!

No!

You can't do this. Ohh, I can.

And I have!

And if you do not let Officer
Rose put the cuffs on you,

I'll also charge you
with resisting arrest.

This is crazy.

You're crazy.

I can probably string this out
for the rest of the day.

So you have until then
to solve the Dorna Bray case.

So that was your plan?

Arrest the new boss,
then put him behind bars?

You have a better one?

MERVIN SIGHS
No, sir, I don't.

SIGHS: This island.

STERLING: Let me out of here!

Please, can we not
just talk about this?

All in good time, Mr Fox.

But you'll have to wait
while I gather evidence

from the crime scene,
which may take some time.

The crime scene's parked
right outside.

How long can it take?

It's been a while
since I've been so hands-on.

STERLING SIGHS
I have a feeling

I may be a bit...rusty.

BARS CLANG
You're killing me in here!

Now,

first things first...

..a nice cup of coffee.

Ah!

And maybe...

..a biscuit too.

Inspector, if you tell me
what it is you're looking for,

perhaps we could
speed things up a bit.

No, we're good as we are, thanks.

Is that your boat?

Yeah.

You know, I hadn't realised at
first.

Same surnames.

Inspector Wilson,

Charlie Wilson.

And then I mentioned to
a couple of my customers

that you were asking after
Dorna, and they filled me in.

Your point? Oh, no point.

I'm just saying, I didn't know
Dorna was your mother.

Five years sober.

Mm.

That's another reason
for my moving here.

Things had got
a little bit out of control.

I needed to sort myself out.

You know, I can't imagine
how hard it must have been,

having never known your mother,

to come all this way

and find out she'd...passed on.

She never mentioned you, you know,

in the time I got to know her.

Didn't even tell me that
she and Charlie had a baby.

Maybe she chose to
put all that behind her.

Out of sight, out of mind.

Why are you telling me this?

No reason.

I just thought
you might want to know.

NAOMI: Sir!

I've got something.

This is interesting, Mr Palmer.

An email exchange
with a jeweller's in the US

requesting a valuation
on a ring that was

previously in Dorna Bray's
possession.

Two million dollars. Care to explain?

Very happy to.
Dorna and I were reminiscing.

She was talking about Charlie,

and she showed me
the ring he gave her -

a promise ring just before
he went back to England.

Go on. Well, it took me a moment,

but I was looking at it,
and I thought, "How on earth

"does a teenage Charlie Wilson

"afford a piece of jewellery
like that?"

Then it came back to me.

There had been a theft reported

at the hotel we were staying at.

A rather valuable ring.

I realised...

..that was it.

So why did you request a valuation?

Because Dorna wouldn't
believe me when I told her

it was valuable. So you discussed it
with her?

The fact that this was stolen?

Yeah. And I told her she
should hand it over to the police

so that it could be returned
to the woman who owned it.

What did she say?

Well, she refused.

She said it was hers,
and she was going to keep it.

I don't believe you.

Well, you wouldn't, would you?

Dorna was your mother.

Of course you want to think
the best of her.

But, and I say this with the
utmost sympathy, Inspector,

you didn't know her.

You never even met her.

And where's the ring now?

Because it's not at Dorna's house

and it wasn't found on her body.

Ah!

So, this is the reason you've been

turning my villa upside down, hmm?

You think I have it?

If you'd told me what it was
you were looking for,

we could have saved
a whole load of time.

Because it's not here,
and I don't know where it is.

Honestly, I don't.

But that's about all.

We'd say hello to each other,
but no more.

How are you getting on?

I'm afraid Miss Clemetson
can't help us much.

She recognises Roy from the photo,

but never had much to do with him.

He was friends with Dorna's father,

but that's all that I knew.

Never really took to him,

if I'm honest with you, Inspector.

You and me both.

All right.
Well, it was worth the ask.

Thank you, Miss Clemetson.

Thank you.

Seb's finished searching
Roy Palmer's bar,

and the ring isn't there either.

So if he's got it, he's hidden it.

Come on!

Sorry.

Sorry, it's not you. It's just...

We're so close to solving this.

We know who did it.

We think we know why.

I just can't figure out
how Roy Palmer

made Dorna travel out to sea

when she knew
there was a storm coming.

HE SIGHS

I don't know.

I feel like I'm blocked.

I can't join the dots.

Something's holding me back.

Like what, Inspector?

I think...

I think there's something
I should have done, but I haven't.

Just bear with me, yeah?

Inspector?

Everything all right? I don't know.

Not really.

There's these letters
my mum sent to my dad...

..years ago now.

I think there's answers in here
about stuff.

I just can't bring myself to...

Maybe...

..I could for you.

Come.

So...

..how would you like to do this?

Um...
CLEARS HIS THROAT

Just give me the headlines
to start with.

The letters were written
just after you were born.

They were sent from Saint Marie,

and your mother talks about
being back here

after some time in London
with Charlie and his parents

when you were born.

Right.

She seemed to have cared
for your father a lot.

But, um, his parents weren't
happy with the situation.

That he got a girl pregnant

when they were both still so young.

It was them who insisted
that she and Charlie

give the baby up.

It wasn't her decision?

I don't believe so.

Here.

She says...

"I know they are just
looking out for you

"and think they are doing
the right thing,

"but it hurts,
and it's not what I wanted."

"I'm never going to be the same
person I was after this."

Um...

"It's broken me."

Also, I think you should hear this.

She mentions the ring
you told me about,

but she says,

"I have not taken it off
since I got back here,

"and I'm never going to.

"I'm always going to wear it,

"and whenever I look at it,

"I'm always going to think
of our little boy."

I don't think she ever forgot you.

I, um... I need a minute.

CLEARS HIS THROAT

HE SIGHS DEEPLY

"I'm never going to be
the same person I was after this."

She said she wasn't the same person.

She... She couldn't be.
She wouldn't be.

And if she wasn't, then...

..every part of this changes.

We know Dorna applied for a permit

to scatter her dad's ashes
on a beach.

Oh, come on, Mervin.

NAOMI: They were waiting
at the bar for Roy to open up

when they saw Dorna
heading out to sea.

Where's the connection?

Where's the ring now? It's not here.

And I don't know where it is.

Where?

If he's got it, he's hidden it.

The harbour.

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

Too many people would know.

Um, somewhere else.

Five years sober.

That's another reason
for my moving here.

Things had got a little bit
out of control.

That's where.

Sir, you wouldn't happen to know

where the local AA meetings
take place?

As it happens, I do.

My local church hosts them.

Of course!

We're going to need to get
Roy Palmer to the station.

You've solved it?

Yeah.

Yes, I have.

And with the help of your
mother, by the sounds of it.

Look, I've had enough of this.

I'm calling the Chief Commissioner.

No, Sterling.

It's Mr Fox, actually, now,
if you please.

You're going to sit down there

and watch what's about to happen.

No ifs, no buts.

They're just in here, Mr Palmer.

Quite the crowd that's gathered.

This is Commissioner Patterson.

Hmm.

Must be important if you're
bringing the big guns out.

Oh, it is, Mr Palmer.

Trust me, it is very important,

because I'm about to arrest you

for the murder of Dorna Bray.

HE SCOFFS

Right.

Well, I'm curious to know

how you reached that conclusion.

Take a seat.

We'll get started.

Now, working out
the motive in this case,

why you committed murder,
wasn't that difficult.

You needed the money.
You were in debt,

and it was growing by the minute.

But then Dorna Bray
came back into your life

after...50 years...

..with a two-million-dollar
ring on her finger,

just waiting for you
to get your hands on it.

But that was the problem,

because Dorna hadn't taken
that ring off her finger

since it was given to her
all those years ago,

so it's not like you could just
stage a burglary and take it.

No.

If you were going to get hold
of that ring and sell it,

you decided you were going to
have to kill her.

But you knew you had to be clever

if you were going to
get away with it.

You decided if you were going
to commit murder,

you wanted it
to look like an accident.

And with Dorna mentioning
to you that she needed

to scatter her father's ashes,

that's when your plan
started to take shape.

To make it look like she died
at sea in a storm.

So how to pull it off?
How do you make it look like

this woman travelled out to sea
alone,

only to drown when bad weather hit?

Well, I'll admit,

that is a question that had me
well and truly baffled

all these weeks.

But today, finally, I realised.

You weren't acting alone

when you murdered
Dorna Bray, were you?

You had someone helping you.

So?

Who was it?

PHONE VIBRATES

Officer Curtis?

Sir...

..I found the ring.

She had it.

You see,

what I've learned about you, Roy,

is that your life is lived
mostly around that harbour.

Your bar, your friends
you go fishing with.

So if you were going to
get away with that murder,

your accomplice needed to be someone

who wasn't part of that world.

Someone who wouldn't be
recognised down there.

And the only thing in your life
I've come across

that isn't connected
to that harbour...

..your weekly AA meetings.

Which happen to take place
at the same church

Brianna Clemetson attends
and helps out at.

You probably don't remember me,

but we've crossed paths
at church a couple of times.

Yes, of course.

And having spoken
to the pastor there,

he told us he'd seen
you and Brianna together,

that you two got close
over the last year.

He said Brianna always seemed
lonely,

sad, struggling to find
some meaning in life.

I thought it would bring me
some happiness.

With the money we'd get,

he said it would help me
find a life for myself.

And you realised you could
take advantage of that.

I got nothing. No friends, family.

All I wanted was a life.

Money can give you that.

I'm not sure it can, honey.

Miss Clemetson, I'm going to
have to arrest you now

and then take you to the station.

So we have the who.

We have the why.

All that's left is the how.

On the morning of Dorna Bray's death,

you went to visit her,

knowing that that particular morning

there was going to be
a massive storm.

Roy! Hey, Dorna.

NAOMI: And two things occurred
when you got there.

Firstly, you convinced her

to scatter her father's
ashes that same day.

It just felt right, you know?

And secondly,

we think you slipped Dorna
a sedative.

FYI, the lab still have
a sample of Dorna's hair

from the original postmortem.
It's being tested as we speak,

and any trace of sedative
in her system will show up.

So I'm going to pre-emptively
call that exhibit A.

Now, we know Dorna checks
the weather that morning,

and we know she was intending
to scatter the ashes

on the beach,
which is why she set out,

knowing if she went early
in the morning,

she'd miss the bad weather.

But what she didn't know

was that you were
following her, Mr Palmer,

and that soon she'd need to
pull over, feeling drowsy.

We think you then drove
a now-unconscious Dorna

back to her house, where behind
the closed gate on the drive,

Brianna Clemetson
changed into Dorna's clothes.

You recovered your own car,
drove back to Dorna's house

so you could place her body into it.

You then drove to
a quiet section of the beach

where your boat was already moored.

You took her out to sea,

where the storm was heading,

and left her there before
returning to shore in a dinghy.

Once you got back to shore,
Miss Clemetson

drove to the harbour in Dorna's car,

where she proceeded to take the
ashes

and get into Ervin Bray's
fishing boat.

The harbour was pretty much
empty that day

because of the incoming storm,
but you knew

your two regular customers
would be there

waiting for you to open up,

and would see a woman
carrying an urn,

getting into a boat,
and heading out to sea.

Now, Miss Clemetson

is roughly the same height
and build as Dorna,

but whether or not the two witnesses

recognised her as Dorna
doesn't really matter.

Because when they recovered
her dead body

and brought it to shore
wearing the same clothes,

they'd just assume
it was the same person.

Having headed out to sea where
you left your boat, Mr Palmer,

Brianna then removed
the clothes she was wearing

and put them back on Dorna.
Once she'd done this,

she moved Dorna's body
into Ervin's fishing boat

and then returned to shore
in your boat,

leaving Dorna Bray unconscious

in her father's fishing boat
with a storm about to hit.

You both knew
it was a Category 4 storm -

that Dorna, now unconscious
in that little boat,

had no chance of surviving.

THUNDER RUMBLES

But something went wrong
with your plan.

The sedative wore off and Dorna
regained consciousness.

THUNDER RUMBLES

DORNA WHIMPERS

She had her mobile
phone in her handbag

and she called the harbour master.

I need help!

Fortunately for you,
the signal was poor...

Hello?

..and the line cut out
before anything incriminating

was said. Hello?

Now, I don't know exactly what
happened out there that day.

SCREAMS

Only that Dorna Bray...

Help!
SHE SOBS

..my mother...

Help!

Help me!

..didn't come back alive.

FOOTSTEPS

I... I had to tell them.

HE LAUGHS

DARLENE: Sir.

Exhibit B.

I assume the reason
you haven't sold this yet

is because you were waiting
for the right price.

It wasn't going to be easy
to find a buyer

for a piece as rare as this.

Stand.

Look...

..for what it's worth...

..I am sorry.

It was never personal.

Maybe not.

But this is.

Roy Palmer, I'm arresting you

on suspicion of the murder
of Dorna Bray.

CUFFS CLICK
You do not have to

say anything, but it may harm
your defence

if you do not mention when questioned

something you later rely on in court.

Anything you do say
may be given in evidence.

Look, I'm glad you caught the
guy that killed your mother,

but that does not excuse
what went on today.

So when I get back to Jamaica,

I'm going to make the Chief
Commissioner fully aware.

Well, with respect, Mr Fox,

I'd like to point out
that if we did things your way,

a man guilty of murder would be
walking free right now.

Which I'm sure the Chief Commissioner
would be very interested to hear.

We don't have to be like that
about it.

You know what would fix this,
Sterling?

When you go back to Jamaica,

you tell your boss that to avoid any
more mistakes like this

being made by your good self,

he needs to reinstate
the Commissioner.

I'll, uh, think about it.

I will let you know.

ENGINE STARTS

You didn't need to do that.

Yes, sir, I did.

I wish I could have done more.

Because if it wasn't for you,
today wouldn't have happened.

This has been owed to you
for a very long time.

HE SIGHS

"As I'm writing this letter,

"I am wearing the ring
you bought me."

DORNA: In fact, I've not taken it
off

since I've got back here.
And I'm never going to.

I'm always going to wear it.

And whenever I look at it,

I'm going to think of our little
boy.

Wherever he is, whatever he's doing,

I'm going to think of our son

and remember the love
I feel for him right now.

ALARM BEEPS

ALARM STOPS

DORNA YAWNS

Two more hours, mate,
and it's bye-bye, Saint Marie.

Rosa Martinez, a volunteer

at the turtle conservancy.

How did her body
end up at the shack?

You were the last person in
here before the body was found.

Of course. I'm a suspect.

They have offered me my job back.

I'm so happy for you!

If a species disappears
from a habitat,

the natural order
of things can be disrupted.

SELWYN: I'm asking you to
reconsider your decision

to go back. You are not at the end

of your journey,
but at the beginning.

Who's "S"?
