There's something in me,

it's... a burning hot ember.

It's...

Jasper,
you've taken some mushrooms.

You're in a safe place.

I've done something terrible.

I...I've gotta put it right.

Hey...

Just trying...
trying to stamp it out.

Hey, it's OK.
Let them go, Jasper.

- It's never gonna go.
- Jasper, you're in no danger.

- It's OK.
- It's never gonna let me go.

You are safe.

Marty!

Marty...

I've gotta tell him.

I've gotta tell Marty.

But once again,

we can confirm
that seven people...

Jeez, Beth.

...lost their lives
in this horrific incident.

Among the deceased, Dev Hannan,

the partner of Jay Jay Hayes,
founder of Hummingbird Retreat.

No other names have
been confirmed...

Attention.

Code blue - ward 2, room 5.

Code blue -
ward 2, room 5.

Hi, Jay Jay.

Hey.

I'm sorry about Dev.

How did this happen?

You did the drinking ceremony,
didn't you?

Where everyone shared?

Yeah, but that
was only kombucha.

I know Hummingbird
was offering magic mushrooms.

Psilocybin. It wouldn't have
that kind of effect.

It's... it's therapeutic.
It's not poisonous.

And, anyway, there were
no mushrooms in the drink.

We're just trying
to help people, you know? Fuck!

I can't be there without Dev.

I'm giving up Hummingbird.

Denise can have my share

and she and Tyson can just
develop the crap out of it.

OK, Jay Jay, I...

Uh, I'm sorry, but, um,

Ashton's bid
to develop Hummingbird,

is Tyson St Clair in on this?

Leave my sister alone.

Badgering her after
all she's been through?

Denise, something
is going on here.

Jasper's murder, Ashton's
disappearance and now this...

You want to write another story,
ruin Port Silver all over again?

I want to find out
who killed Jasper.

You're not welcome here, Marty.

You've done enough damage.

- Hey.
- Hey.

How's Mandy?

Oh, just waiting for
whatever it was to wear off.

How are you?

Pfft...

Good story.

Personal.

Yeah, a bit too personal
for my liking.

Why were you there?

Denise Speight invited me.

Right.

Good morning, fellow travellers.

Um... how's Mandy?

Oh...

Well, any, uh...
any thoughts on Amory Ashton?

Oh, no, not really.

Hm, Hummingbird update.
Here we go!

Who's Amory Ashton?

He's the subject
of Doug's cold case yarn.

- And part of this one?
- Don't know.

I think Jasper's murder

and what happened last night
could be linked.

In fact, I think Hummingbird

could be the connection
for all these murders.

All what murders?

Oh, Amory Ashton for one.

So he was developing
a proposal for Hummingbird

right before he disappeared.

And now it is Tyson St Clair,
who Jasper worked for,

who is desperate
to buy the place.

Then, last night, a whole bunch
of murders right on this beach.

So what if that's what...

Conspiracy theories
make great copy,

but we don't know what happened
to Ashton or last night,

so right now
the only murder is Jasper's.

Mate, just go be with Mandy.

Huh.

I did it, Mum. I won.

Oh, little bloke's
just fallen asleep.

- Oh, great.
- Um, I can wake him if you want.

Vern, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about your trawler

and, um, sorry for being
such a smart-arse

and... and for
leaving town like that.

After Mum and Emma, I...

...I was just so angry.

And I blamed this place for
everything that happened and...

...I never really
appreciated what you did...

...or what I did.

You were a kid.

What's been my excuse
the last quarter-century?

Come here.

- All good?
- Yeah, all good.

Thank you so much
for looking after him.

Oh...

It has really been
such a weight off our minds.

Mmm.

And Mandy's been through
the bloody ringer.

And if I can't find out
who really killed Jasper...

Marty, what...

...what have you been doing
for the last 25 years?

Asking people about stuff
they don't want to talk about.

Yeah, fuckin' ironic, I know.

And, um...

...uncovering the truth.

Get on with it, then.

You can't do anything
to help her here, can ya?

Yeah?

It's Martin Scarsden again,
Mr St Clair.

I'm still hoping to talk to you
about Jasper Speight.

Well, I'm still
not interested, mate.

Alright, well, if you prefer,

we could discuss your
involvement in visa fraud.

Port Silver's
Deep Throat,

still chucking mud, huh?

Were you a part of this?

No, I wasn't in
on poor old Amory's

creative vision for Hummingbird.

That was him and Denise Speight.

Denise? Right.

But when Amory
conveniently vanished,

you came on board.

I thought you
were here about Jasper.

I am.

But Jay Jay never wanted to
sell her share of Hummingbird.

Did you and Denise
send Jasper down there

to soften his auntie up?

As far as I know,
Jasper went to Hummingbird

to meditate on how to grow
a pair after his wife left him.

You want to see what real
creative vision looks like?

Hummingbird Waters.
It's the jewel in the crown.

It's a game-changer
for Port Silver.

Tourism, high-value retirees,
employment...

Did Jasper work on this for you?

International
development finance

was a bit out
of Jasper's league, Martin.

Well, you can
send in the excavators.

Heard Jay Jay's given up,
selling Denise her 50%.

Yeah, Denise told me
she met the deadline.

It's ironic.

The French investors
were pressuring

to get the land sale finalised.

Half a dozen corpses
littering the pristine shoreline

proved too rich
for their delicate PR stomachs.

What? So they're pulling out
of the development?

The cowards announced
on the ASX website an hour ago.

Stand to lose much?

I'll live.

What about Amory and Denise's
bid on Hummingbird?

Did Jasper work on that?

Jasper did whatever
his mum told him to.

Nick.

Just got a call
from a mate of mine

and they know what
the Hummingbird drug was.

Ketamine.

Ketamine doesn't
usually kill people.

But it does if it's cut
with enough fentanyl

to knock out
a herd of elephants.

Fentanyl? Shit.

Thank you.

Yeah, yeah, mate.

A hundred times
stronger than morphine,

50 times stronger than heroin.

It's lucky more people
didn't cark it.

- How's Mandy?
- Oh, she's still asleep.

I'll come see her. That alright?

Yeah, yeah, do that.

There's something
I need to check out.

- Hey, is Harry inside?
-Haven't seen him today.

Harry?

Hey.

Any leads?

Well, local drug dealer
Harry Drake just skipped town

with what I suspect
is a guilty conscience.

Not that
that proves much.

25 years ago,
I skipped town too.

You came back.

Oh, only 'cause Mandy
wanted to go to Hummingbird...

...make a fresh start.

I'll go find the doctor.

Hey.

It feels like I've moved
to the Bermuda Triangle.

Jasper's memorial...

Look, I'm sorry I didn't come.

Well, to be honest,

I didn't want to go either,

but Denise made it
impossible to say no.

Yeah, she just wanted
to celebrate Jasper,

but instead she ended up
getting poisoned.

That's so weird 'cause...

...I saw her
with the sharing bowl

and when it was her turn,
she barely sipped.

Your journo mate's up front.

He says it's important.

OK.

Scotty, so this
Hummingbird thing...

Jesus Christ.

Denise always wanted
to develop the place, right?

But Jay Jay
always refused to sell.

So last night
at Jasper's memorial,

a bunch of people share a drink

laced with ketamine
and fentanyl...

Hang on. How do you know
what the drugs were?

A source.

Nick bloody Poulos!

I bet she got the drugs
from Harry Drake.

He's her godson
and he's done a runner.

Scotty, Denise knew
the bowl was spiked.

Denise was taken to Longton
Hospital in an ambulance.

Yeah, she was pretending
to be affected.

Check her blood test, see if
she had fentanyl in her system.

Look, I know you think

you're cleverer
than the rest of us...

Come on, Scotty. For me.

OK, fair enough.
For Jasper, then.

I'm sure he'd appreciate you

accusing his mum of mass murder.

Jenny, can I have the victim
report from the hospital?

Already ahead of ya.

Thank you. Hmm?

She didn't have a blood test.

Refused one.

So...

...what does Denise Speight gain

from poisoning people
at Hummingbird Beach?

Well, it caused
a stink for Jay Jay,

got her to give up the land
Denise has wanted for years.

Denise had motive, means
and opportunity

to get the drugs into Dev's jug.

It makes sense
she's connected somehow

and maybe Tyson is too.

But killing seven people
is pretty psycho stuff.

Have you put out
an alert for Harry?

More useful advice.

- Yes, I've put out an alert.
- Alright, good.

Oh, thanks very much.

What about Jasper? How does he
get caught up in all of this?

Look, I don't know.

But that call he made, right,
just before he was killed?

There was something
he wanted to tell me.

And, look, I know I haven't

spoken to the guy
in 25 years, but...

...he didn't sound like himself.

He sounded ashamed or guilty.

And then five minutes later,
someone stabs him.

- And Mandy was at the house.
- Huh...

Did he say anything else
over the phone, anything at all?

He said he wanted
to see my ugly mug,

get together
and "shack it out".

"Get together and shack it out"?

Yeah, you know,
like the old times.

And I thought
you were the brainy one.

Huh, Jasper's brew
kettle has migrated outside.

I was here
the other day.

I didn't see anything.

Why did you become a cop?

You know what it was like
growing up here poor.

Try adding black to the mix.

I wanted to even out
the playing field

and I didn't want
to turn my back.

And Jasper...

...the brewer who hated maths,
became an accountant.

Ah, speaking of naughty,

remember how excited he was

when he found this
mull buoy for you, huh?

Hey, hey.

Did Amory Ashton drive a Merc?

Fake accounts.

Shelf companies.

Obscuring Denise Speight's
dodgy financial transactions.

Most of what came in went
out again, to God knows where.

But a lot of it went
to one particular account.

Amory Ashton.

OK.

Amory, who five years ago,
got the cash together

to make a bid
on Hummingbird with Denise...

...and loses the lot
and just vanishes.

You don't think Jasper,

gentle, daggy Jasper,
murdered Amory Ashton

over Hummingbird, over money?

It is a long way
to come to brew beer.

Where was Amory's car found?

A few bays over.

That brew kettle...

...did that look kind of like
a gravestone to you?

What?

Who the hell would hide a body
and then mark the spot?

Someone who wants it found.

Scotty.

Jen.

I'm gonna need you
to get a forensic team.

The old fishing shack
at Whalers Bay.

Hey, Scotty?

I don't know
if Jasper killed Ashton

or if Denise did

or if they got
someone else to do it.

But Jasper knew.

He was just about to tell me
right before he was killed.

By who?

Harry Drake, Denise...

Denise?

Marty...

...this is evidence

that Denise may be guilty of
tax evasion with Amory Ashton...

...but not of his murder
and certainly not Jasper's.

Well, what about her involvement
in the Hummingbird poisonings?

- Circumstantial at best.
- Hang on.

Circumstance is all
you had against Mandy

when you brought her in!

Wait. You still
don't think she did it?

No. No, I don't.

Good.

You're ready.

"Once more unto the breach."

And we are waiting
outside the hospital

to see if we can
have a word to Mandalay Bond,

who once again finds herself

in the middle
of a murder investigation.

Not even a word.

Mandalay, have you got
anything to say

to Mr Speight's family?

Back, please. Stay back.
Give us room.

Let them pass, please.
Stay back.

So you really think Denise is
behind the Hummingbird deaths?

Yeah, it makes sense to me,

and then maybe
she killed Jasper too.

You agree?

Except for the bit
where she stabbed her own son.

No mother could do that.

Scotty's building a case.

He's got Jasper's USB
with the money records

and Ashton's car keys.

Tell you what, if she did do it,

I'd like to shove
those keys down her throat.

Maybe that's not a bad idea.

-No, it won't work.
-Yes, it will.

I've deliberately kept
finding Ashton's body quiet.

Yeah, but we need an alternate
narrative to draw her out.

She's the only one connected to
Hummingbird, Amory and Jasper.

Come on, mate!

We used to take big
fuckin' risks all the time.

But it's not really
me and you taking it, is it?

Hello.

Hello, Denise. It's Mandy.

Mandy!
Uh, what can I do for you?

So when the police
finally returned my bag,

the one I'd had
with me at Jasper's,

I found something in there -

a set of car keys
with a double 'A' fob.

I found something else
in there too -

a USB with a bunch of files
linking you and Amory Ashton

to hundreds of thousands
of dollars in tax evasion.

I have no idea
what you're talking about.

Bullshit.

Look, I don't give a fuck
about you or Ashton.

This whole thing's
destroyed my relationship.

I just want to get away
from here and Martin

and make a new start.

So we have something
to offer each other.

Money.

50,000.

I'll ditch the keys,
you get the USB

and I leave Silver with my son.

So the Cape Lighthouse
at 6 o'clock.

Please be there or I'll have
to give this to Scotty Waalitj.

No admission.

No, so we'll have to catch her
in a lie or a guilty act.

She has to actually
take the USB?

Mm-hm.

Will that be enough
to convict her?

It's not as good
as a confession,

but it'll help
strengthen the case.

Right, let's get you
wired up, hm?

OK.

Hello.

Where are you,
Harry, love?

You said that you just
wanted to make people sick...

...make them pass out.

That is all I wanted.

I didn't know your ket
was full of fentanyl.

Neither did I.

I need you to come back, Harry.

Look, I...I know
you're upset, but I've...

...I've lost Hummingbird

and I've lost Jasper.

And you're the closest thing
I've got to a son.

And now Mandalay Bond is...

Hello?

-Have you got the USB?
- Yes.

OK, just remember, you just have
to get her to take it, alright?

I know.

I'll be alright.

- I love you.
- I love you.

- Go. Alright.
- OK.

Hello, Denise.

Change of plan!

Get to your cars!
Let's get moving!

Oh, Mandy.

She's moved the
meeting to Ashton's factory.

What? Why?

Doesn't want to be seen with me.

Reckons the lighthouse
is too public.

I'm heading to the factory now.

No, no. Mandy, Mandy,
you can't do that.

Scotty will have heard.
He'll be on his way.

But you're closer.
I'll get her talking.

No, no, no! The plan was if
anything changed, you pull out.

Mandy, you've got no backup.

I need to find out
if she killed Jasper.

I can't have this
hanging over me.

I've got enough fucking baggage
to pass on to Liam as it is.

Just hurry, OK?

No, no, no! Wait, wait!

Wait! Shit!

Certainly
a lot less public.

Have you got it?

So you're selling your soul
for 50,000 pieces of silver.

I had you picked
as holier-than-thou,

just like your boyfriend.

Ex-boyfriend.

And you're in no position
to judge me.

You killed him, didn't you?

And all those people
at Hummingbird.

How could you kill
your own child?

I thought you were just
interested in the money.

Huh! You framed me
for his murder, Denise.

Fuck this.

I did everything for him

and he still turned on me!

Hey, Marty, I just

really need to see you, OK?

If we could just get together

and shack it out,
like old times, OK?

Who are you texting?

Um, just Sue.

Oh, what did she want?

Oh, you know, just...

...just, you know,
kids, arrangements.

Still walking all over you!

But, you know,
you make your choice,

this is what you get.

I can't. I can't
do this anymore, Mum.

Can't do what?

Have nightmares.

I keep seeing his face.

Jasper, for heaven's sake.

I can't stop thinking about it.

And every... every time
I see his car keys...

You kept them? Why on earth?

I don't know!

A reminder maybe of...
of what I did.

I think about it
every single day.

I think about him,
I think about his family and...

...that maybe if we just go to
the police and we can explain...

What? That you murdered
Amory Ashton?

- It was self-defence.
- I should hope so.

I sent you there to scare him,
not kill him.

But, of course, as usual,
you stuffed that up too!

I can't go on living like this

and neither can you.

Don't tell me
what I can or can't do!

I am trying to help you.

I am trying to help us!

For God's sake,
you couldn't help

an old lady across the street!

Ashton, the tax evasion,

all of it...

Marty's on his way here now.

I'm gonna tell him everything.

Martin Scarsden?

It's time for the truth, Mum.

Jasper, don't be ridiculous!

Fuck this. I'm gonna
tell him right now.

Don't you dare!

Huh?

Jasper!

It was all for him.

Hummingbird, all of it.

It was for Jasper!

And then he spat it back at me

because Marty Scarsden decided
he wanted a holiday in Silver.

Do you know,
that guy is a bottom feeder.

I have never understood
why Jasper admired him so much.

You are so much
better off without him.

Shall we?

Of course.

Oh, you lying bitch.

Ugh!

Mandy?

Mandy?

Mandy?!

Mandy?

Mandy!

Mandy?!

Mandy?

Arggh!

Oh, my God. Mandy?

OK, Denise...

Denise, Denise, put it down.

Denise,
the police heard everything.

They know you killed Jasper.

It's over. It's over, OK?

It's over.

Denise, it's over.

OK?

Denise...

I did love my son.

Denise, don't! No!

Oh, my God!

No, no, no, no!

Oh! Oh, my God!

They caught Harry
at the airport.

He's been charged with
dealing class A narcotics

and manslaughter.

And Tyson?

Immigration's
investigating the visa fraud,

but St Clair's got
some pretty fancy lawyers.

Oh, surely
not fancier than Nick.

Just a bit.

Well, he tried
to do the right thing.

In the end.

Yeah.

- To Jasper.
- To Jasper.

- Oh, he did love a brew.
- He did.

Although I preferred...

Shit!

You really have loosened up.

Yeah, it's having you around.
Brings out the worst in me.

So what?

You staying?

I don't know.

Maybe.

I've got some family shit
to sort out.
