[birds chirping]

[soft foreboding music]

?

- Oh.

?

[theme music]

?

[pensive music]

?

- Is that Hannah?

- Winton.

Yeah, science teacher,
Brokenwood High.

- Oh, the fateful quiz night.

- She's been tied to the
harness with some sort of cord.

- Could be the tie
from her jacket.

- And I think it's safe
to assume she was already dead

before she started moving.

- Well, don't let Gina
hear you say that.

Never assume.

Right.

- Fraser, DSS Mike Shepherd
and Detective Sims.

What brought you here so early?

- Oh, I'm a pest buster.

It's like "Ghostbusters,"
but possums.

- You shoot them with
your proton pack?

- No, we lay poison.

But there's a whole series of
bait stations up along the path

through the bush.

- And that's what
brought you here?

- Yeah.

I mean, I could have
left it till later,

but I like to get up early.

It's the best part
of the day for me.

- You must know the area well.

- Yeah, well enough.

- And did you know
the zipline was here?

- Yeah.

That's part
of the adventure camp.

- Who uses the camp?

- Schools, youth groups mostly.

Reckon that's where
she came from.

- Probably.

- Although it doesn't
pay to assume.

- Mm.

- Mike, good morning.

- Gina.

Meet Hannah Winton.

- You have a positive
ID already?

- We've crossed paths
before, the exploding

pool shed investigation.

- Oh, yes.

The explosion
and the interesting burns and

the chlorine gas confusion.

- Let's get her down.

- Right, around then.

- Fraser, would you mind
showing DC Chalmers the path

that you took to get here?

- Yeah, sure.

This way.

- You and I are going
to take a walk up the hill.

Gina, Ms. Winton is all yours.

[soft music]

?

- Footprints everywhere.

Kids jumping on and off
all day, no doubt.

- No obvious drag marks, no
broken branches, or anything

else to suggest a struggle.

- Meaning Hannah walked here?

- Either by herself or with
someone she trusted.

- But why truss her up
and send her down the zipline?

I mean, what does it
say about our offender?

- Or what was the offender
trying to say about Hannah?

- Wow.

Rustic.

- Oh.

- Sorry.

We didn't mean to startle you.

I'm DSS Mike Shepherd,
Brokenwood CIB.

- Detective Kristin Sims.

- Ashley Phipps.

How can I help?

- We're investigating
an incident nearby.

Just checking who's
around for now.

- I'm a music teacher
at Brokenwood High,

and we're here on a leadership
camp with the new prefects.

- When you say we're here?

- Well, three days ago,
there were 14 of us,

and now we're down to 8.

Food poisoning, dodgy chicken.

Five of the kids
and Mr. Hamilton

were all packed off home.

Overreaction, if you ask
me, but it wasn't my call.

It was Hannah's, so.

- Hannah?

Hannah Winton,
the science teacher?

- That's right.

She's not here right now.

She's gone for a walk,
but she should be back soon.

- Oh, everything okay?

- Mr. Munroe?

- Hi.

- I'm afraid I have
some very bad news.

- Ella?

Prefect, eh?

Well done, you.

- What's going on?

- Mr. Munroe and I just need
some time with our visitors.

We won't be long, so.

Oh my god.

Are you sure it's her?

- Yes.

We'd met.

- I can't believe it.

- I'm sorry.

I know it's a lot to take in.

When was the last
time you saw Hannah?

- Last night around lights out.

- We made sure all
the kids were where

they were supposed to be.

- I suggested a wine,
but no one was keen.

- It was a long day.

We were all pretty knackered.

- So we just headed off to bed.

- You all had separate cabins?

- Yes.

- Tell me, you're here
as a parent helper.

Is that right?

- My daughter Georgia's
one of the prefects here.

- Could you tell me
which cabin was Hannah's?

We'll need to take a look.

- Yeah, sure.

It's the second on the left.

- Thank you.

[pensive music]

?

- They're getting antsy.

They know something's up.

- Yeah, we will need
to talk to them.

- It saddens me
to have to let you

all know that
our lovely Ms. Winton

passed away this morning.

She was found by a passerby in
the clearing near the zipline.

I know this is very
upsetting for you

all, and we're going to try and
get you home as soon as we can.

There'll also be
counseling for those

who want it in due course.

- Josh.

- Babe.

- Hi, I'm Detective Senior
Sergeant Mike Shepherd.

This is my colleague,
Detective Kristin Sims.

She'll need to take
some details from you,

but I promise you, we will only
keep you as long as necessary.

Thank you.

Anything?

- I can tell you one thing.

- One more thing than usual.

- She was almost certainly
already dead when she

was strapped to the harness.

There are no signs of any
kind of resistance,

but she died
recently and quickly.

- That's three things, Gina.

You're out of control.

- What about the redness around
her mouth and on her skin?

Is that-
- I tried.

She won't go there.
- Not yet.

Not even for you, Mike.

- Hannah's phone.

Only thing on her.

- How did you get
on with Fraser?

- Yeah, the pest-busting
thing seems legit.

- So you just pop the lid,
replace the bait as needed.

Easy.

I refilled that one
about an hour ago,

and then the next station's
a few minutes up the path.

- That address you gave me
is Walter Elliot's place.

- You know Walter?

- Yeah, we go back.

- Well, you must know his
nephew, then, Todd Taylor.

- I do.

- He's another pest buster.

- You see Walter
or Todd this morning?

- No.

- Did you see anyone else?

- No.

It was just me, just
the way I like it.

- So far, his story holds up.

- Did we get anything
from Hannah's phone?

- Nothing so far.

No outgoing calls
or texts since the camp

started four days ago.

- Is that weird?

- Mm.

The techies have her laptop.

Maybe there'll be
something in her emails.

She has a mother and a sister
in the South Island.

They've been notified,
but both claim they haven't

heard from her for weeks.

- She was devoted
to her job, apparently.

She's been acting principal
for the last couple of months,

and I spoke to all
the students.

Take a seat, Josh.

Got pretty much the same
story from all of them.

When was the last time
you saw Ms. Winton?

- Last night.

She had her torch out.

She was doing the rounds.

- It was after lights out.

She caught me and Ella
talking, so she sent

her back to her own cabin.

- Must have been
around midnight.

- Fair enough.

Some of us were
trying to sleep.

And it's not like they
hadn't been warned.

- What do you mean?

- A couple of nights
ago, Ms. Winton caught

some of the kids drinking.

Ella raided her mum's supply.

- Oh, it takes me back.

I mean, who hasn't indulged
in some illicit boozing

on school camp?

- Seriously?

- Well, you haven't
mentioned Ella.

What did she have to say?
- Oh, yeah.

Ella.

- I want my lawyer.

- Hmm.

Meaning her mother's lawyer.

- So we can expect a visit
from Miranda Temple.

- Well, Fiona's
on holiday in Bali,

licking the wounds from her
failed council campaign.

She's not due home
for another couple of days,

but she's trying to get
on an earlier flight.

Meanwhile, Ella is
staying with the Munroes,

and they'll have a full
house because Akikato Smith

is staying there too.

His parents are
working in Japan.

- I can't help thinking we're
missing a person of interest.

- Karl Munroe.

Hannah's quiz night fling.

- Yeah, my wife's back soon,
and that thing with Hannah

Winton was just a one-off.

- We have no reason
to talk to your wife.

- Thanks.

- He did seem genuine.

- He did, at the time.

- Such a shame.

The standard of science
teachers in this country

is not so great
that we can afford

to lose any of the good ones.

- If only that had occurred
to whoever wanted her dead.

- Now, note the pinkish foam
stained around her lips,

very faint, among
the blistering.

There, see?

Poison.

- Cyanide.

- Oxamide.

- Sorry?

- It's the brand
name of the poison

used by the pest busters.

- Talk to that
Fraser Lennox again.

And follow up on the food
poisoning at the camp.

Might be a practice
run gone wrong.

- Okay.

[mellow music]

?

- [non-English].

- Morning, [non-English].

Uncle Walter about?

- No, he's up north for a few
days, visiting family.

- Okay.

I'm actually looking
for a Fraser Lennox.

I believe he lives here.

- Oh, yeah.

No, he turned up about a year
ago looking for odd jobs.

The rest of the time,
we hardly see him.

Has he done something?

- He found a body this morning.

Apart from that,
nothing we know of.

Can you tell me
how to find him?

- If you cut through
this way, hang a left

at the fork in the path, then
take a right when the tree

line stops, then veer left,
and it's about a half a K

after that.

- No road access?

- No.

- Okay.

Thanks.

- Watch out for the bull.

Just jokes.

- You're not really
in a position

to be cracking funnies, Todd.

- Why?

What have I done?

- Just jokes.

[light music]

?

I can see why you
want to stay out here.

- Yeah, it's good for the soul.

But you're not here
for a wellness retreat.

- I need a sample of the bait
you were laying this morning.

- Why?

You can't be thinking-

no, man.

No way.

- It's a line of inquiry.

- Well, I keep it
locked up inside.

It's probably not
necessary out here,

but you know, safety first.

- I'm sure.

- Well, I found Mr. Hamilton
training for a marathon.

Fully recovered,
as are all the others,

and they all agree with Ashley
in blaming the dodgy chicken.

- Did anyone return to the camp
after being sent home?

- If they did, they're
not admitting to it.

And besides, they were
all under the watchful eye

of concerned family members.

- Well, I dropped off
the oxamide sample with Gina.

She'll run tests.

- Thanks.

[phone rings]

Mike Shepherd Ah, Ms. Temple.

Works for me.

I'll see you there soon.

Ella's ready to talk.

- This way.

Miranda's is
in the kitchen with Jenny.

- Detectives.
- Miranda.

- Hi.

- This is my wife, Jenny.

- DSS Mike Shepherd.

- Detective Sims.
Kristin.

- Nice to meet you both.

- Sorry it's not under
happier circumstances.

- Ella, where are you?

- I'm here.

- The police are
ready to talk to you.

Should we do this?

- Are you going to be okay?

- Yeah.
- Bye, love.

I'll see you later, then.
- Thanks, Josh.

See you, mate.

- Actually, Sims,
would you talk to Ella?

I wouldn't mind having a chat
with Mr. and Mrs. Munroe,

if that's all right?

- Of course.

Call me Jenny.

Lead the way.

Tea?

- Oh, thanks.

One, no sugar.

- You're being
very understanding

about Ella wanting a lawyer.

I did offer to sit
in with her myself,

but she's very much
her mother's daughter.

And after what she went
through earlier this year,

we didn't like to pressure her.

Georgia and Aki have been
in their rooms all afternoon.

I doubt we'll be disturbed.

- Yes, Aki.

I believe he lives with you.

- Yeah, his mum's
an old friend from uni.

- His dad got lured
back to Japan.

A job offer he
couldn't turn down.

- Taking Aki with
them would have meant

interrupting his schooling.

He and Georgia have
always been great mates,

so we offered to take him in.

- Yeah.

Why settle for one moody
teenager when you can have two?

- That's not fair.

They're good kids.

- We believe Ms. Winton
died some time sometime

around 7 o'clock this morning.

Where were you?

- My cabin.

Asleep.

- And was anyone else
in your cabin with you?

- No.

Me and Georgia had
cabins to ourselves.

- Luxury.

Did you like Ms. Winton?

- Is that strictly relevant?

- It might be.

I'm trying to find out.

- She was okay.

- We understand that
there was some drinking

on your school camp.

- Oh, come on.

Who hasn't indulged
in a little illicit boozing

at a school camp?

I haven't been able
to drink tequila since 1995.

- Ms. Winton confiscated
a bottle of alcohol.

- You think I killed her
because she took my vodka?

- Nobody's saying that.

- Other people had
better reason than that.

- What people?

What reasons?

- Everybody.

Nobody liked her.

- So, clearly,
a few issues there.

- Her mother's been paying for
counseling since the induction

but doesn't seem to have been
very present in Ella's life.

- Oh, darling, Bali is
beautiful this time of year.

- Reading between the lines,
a lot of the parenting

seems to have fallen
to Jenny Munroe.

- That's three teenagers
under her wing.

- On top of everything else.

- MS, if you're wondering.

I don't always need
the chair, but lately, there's

been more chair days than not.

- So Karl cheated
on his disabled wife.

- Biscuit?

- What a guy.

- Yeah, then bumped off
his girlfriend because she

was getting too keen.

- Well, that's one scenario.

- Or it could have
been the wronged wife.

- True, although Jenny says
she had an early morning

appointment with a specialist.

- Do you think she ever found
out about Karl and Hannah?

- Who knows?

It might be worth checking
Karl's phone records,

see if things really did
end when he said they did.

How did you get on with Gina?

- Yeah, she wasn't
thrilled to see me.

[light music]

?

- Toxicology confirms that
the cyanide in your blue pellet

matches the poison
which killed Hannah.

Tell Mike I'm available
if he needs to know more.

- And if I need to know more?

- Ask Mike.

?

- The poison was readily
available to the offender

if they knew where to look.

There was signposted bait
stations close to the camp.

- Which anyone could
have seen if they

were walking along that path.

- Check with Ashley Phipps.

- Okay.

Oh, thanks, Frodo.

Catch you guys later.

- Thanks, Frodo.

- You all right there, mate?

You seem a bit low.

- I'm just sad about Hannah.

She was a lovely lady.

- Of course.

You were on the same
team at that quiz night.

- She turned up here
about a week later.

She'd been a regular
ever since.

- Who was the Greek
god of love?

- Oh, oh.

Wait, hang on.
I know this.

It's on the tip of my tongue.

The little chubby dude
with the bow and arrow.

- Cupid?

- Yeah, that's him.

- I think he was Roman.

- Oh.

- Eros, as in erotic.

- Yeah.

I mean, that sounds right.

That was Hannah.

Lovely and smart.

- Yeah, everyone knew
about the possum bait.

I mean, it was
hard to miss, and

Hannah pointed it out herself.

- Everybody, note the sign.

I don't want anybody
straying off the path.

- What was that, miss?

- Not funny, Damion.

- Hannah was a real
stickler for the rules.

I mean, my philosophy
is you don't have to be

in teacher mode all the time.

You know, it's okay
to have a laugh.

- Was Hannah well
liked by her students?

Got it.

- But you don't think one
of the kids killed her?

[knocking]

- DSS Shepard.

Aki, isn't it?

Is Mr. Munroe home?

- I think so.

- Thanks, Aki.

- Sorry to bother you again.

We could talk at the station
if you'd rather.

- Yeah, sure.

Jenny's at the shop, but it
might be better not to add

any more stress to the kids.

- One more thing.

I'm going to need your phone
and laptop, if you don't mind.

- What, both of them?

I need them for work.

We'll be as quick as we can.

- You didn't say how she died.

Was she- did she kill herself?

- Given the way
the body was found,

that would seem unlikely.

Why do you ask?

- I was just-

- Had Hannah been
depressed lately?

- I couldn't tell you.

I mean, we weren't-

I didn't really know her.

- Well, that's not
entirely accurate, is it?

Did your wife know about
your liaison with Hannah?

- No.

I didn't want to hurt her.

- He thought Hannah might
have killed herself because

of their misguided shag.

Talk about ego.

- Could have just
been platonic concern.

- Well, assuming Karl was
telling the truth about it

just being the one time.

- The tech team didn't find
any messages between them

on his phone or his laptop.

- Well, that doesn't
mean they weren't there.

He might have deleted the apps.

- Yes, if the cops are going
to come calling, first thing

you'd get rid of.

- And some of those chat
apps, once deleted, there's

no way to recover them.

- But Hannah's phone didn't
have any evidence of contact

between them either.

- Speaking of chats,
I spoke to Todd

about pest buster's protocols.

Could hardly shut him up.

- Well, it's cool to get
outdoors, you know.

Just enjoy the serenity.

Be one with nature.

- Before you kill some of it.

- It's only pests.

It's the circle of life.

Hakuna matata.

- So how does it work?

- Well, anyone who's interested
in joining can just-

- No, no, no.

I mean getting the poison,
the base stations, that stuff.

- Oh, yeah.

We each have our own
stash locked up.

We use that for the traps,
and if there's

any old bait in there,
we get rid of that

and put in the fresh stuff.

- Right, so if no pests
get it, the bait can be

there for, what, a few weeks?

- Until the next round, yeah.

- Okay.

Can you show me where
you keep your bait?

- Yeah, yeah, sure.

Oh, I'm actually running low.

I'd be out, but I swapped
shifts with Fraser.

- Why did they swap?

- Fraser's idea, apparently.

- He asked a couple
of days ago.

Wasn't a biggie.

- Did he say why?

- No.

No no, no.

I don't know anything.

You ask him.

- I just wanted to get
out of town, that's all.

- Where to?

- Hadn't decided.

You know, just wanted
to hit the road for a bit.

- Did he swap shifts to give
him a reason to be in the area?

- With what motive?

There doesn't seem to be
any connection between him

and Hannah.
- Hmm.

The people with the closest
connection to her

were all at the camp,
Karl and the students.

- And according to Ashley,
she wasn't overly

popular with the students.

- Hannah just needed
to chill out a bit, you know?

- Well, how do you mean?

- Well, for example, the kids
pulled a prank on her at camp.

I would have laughed
but not Hannah.

- Keep walking.

Okay, now turn to the right,
kind of like angle

your body, yeah, and now
keep walking forward.

Okay, stop there.

Okay, you're coming
to a bit of a step.

- How big?

- It's a step down.

More of a jump, really.

- Okay.

- Take half a step forward.

Yeah, stop there.

You're right at the edge now.

Get ready and jump.

[laughter]

- I'm not sure that
constitutes sufficient motive.

- But, regardless,
Ella's headspace

doesn't seem to be great.

- Well, after being
abducted by Bev and Landry,

can't blame her.

- Sure, but maybe her little
prank wasn't as light-hearted

as we first thought.

- Let's talk to all
the students again.

- Well, if we're
looking for a snitch,

I know who to start with.

[upbeat music]

?

Wow.

They obviously don't
sell deodorant in here.

- Is that Toby?

- Yeah, and look
who his friend is.

?

- Gentlemen.

Hi.

Did you want to talk to me?

- No, actually, we want
to talk to this guy,

unless we're
interrupting something.

- No.

I know Toby likes
to hang around here,

so I thought I'd check in.

All the kids are pretty
freaked out, understandably.

- Kids.

- Do you want me
to stick around?

- I don't need a chaperone.

- We just have a few questions.

- Can it be quick?

I'm in my movement phase.

- Your what?

- The battle.

- Karl, I think
we're good here.

- Hang in there, champ.

Bye.

- So you mentioned Ella
brought alcohol to the camp.

Was there any other
behavior from her or anyone

else that was noteworthy
that might have brought them

into conflict with Ms. Winton?

- Well, take your pick.

There was Aki.

- What's distracting you?

A girl?

A boy?

Look, whatever,
whoever it is, you

need to consider
if a relationship is more

important than your studies.

- Must have touched
a nerve, I guess.

Or Josh.

- I've got you.
Got you.

Got you.
- I'm fine.

Don't touch me!

- His crush on her
was so cringe.

Oh, and Georgia.

- Come on, Georgia.

You can do it.

Everyone else has.

- Uh, hello?

- We're all waiting for you.

- I just- I need a minute.

- Yeah, well, we
don't have a minute.

Off you go.

- [screams]

- She wasn't ready.

- She was holding
up the schedule.

- She was fine.

Pretty pissed off
afterwards, though.

- You know, the real
battle in there

was between BO and body spray.

- Wow.

So Josh had a crush
on his teacher.

Is there a motive there,
thwarted romantic ambition?

- And then there's Ella,
his jealous girlfriend.

Did she take action?

- Yeah, and what did you
think of the Georgia story?

- Mm.

- Shall we?

- It's all a bit-

- Floral?

- Yeah.

I'll talk to Josh.

- Okay.

- Seemed respectful to close,
but I'm waiting for a delivery.

You know what
couriers are like.

- Well, this
shouldn't take long.

- Oh, I'm happy
to help however I can.

Poor woman.

Everyone's so shaken.

Karl's at home with
the other kids.

Don't really want to leave
them alone at the moment.

What do you need from me?

- Well-

- Oh, hello.

- Everything all right?

- Yeah.

The kids are fine.

They're glued to their phones.

I thought I'd do
a supermarket run,

seeing as we're
overrun by teenagers.

- Good call.
- Here you go.

- Thanks.

- What's going on?

- Oh, the detective just wants
to ask me some questions.

- You two, actually.

- Me?

- I can stick around.

- No need.

I'm here.

- Sure.

I'll see you at home.

- Hello?

- Sorry.

Dad's not very good
at tidying up after himself.

- Just you two here?

- Yeah.

Mum took off ages ago.

- Where is your dad?

- Working.

- What does he do?

- Plumber.

- Does he know about Ms.
Winton, camp being over?

- Yeah, but they're
in the middle of a new build,

and the client's really picky,
apparently, so, you know.

- So you must be here
on your own a lot.

- What did you need?

- Just a few questions.

Yeah, Josh's dad
seems pretty absent,

but proud of his son's
sporting achievements at least.

Pretty flash
on the field, then, eh?

- I do all right.

- You must be good
at the academics

too if you're going
to be a prefect.

I never got the balance right.

Barely scraped through
my science exams.

I might have done better
if I had a decent teacher,

but Mr. Donaldson
had bad breath and

a habit of leaning
over your desk

when he was trying
to explain something.

- Ms. Winton isn't like that.

She- she was awesome.

Really made sure I
understood what she

was talking about in class.

- She took extra time
with you outside of class?

- Yeah, sometimes.

- I had a teach it like that.

She really got me.

I was gutted when she left.

- Tell me more
about this teacher.

- Seems like Toby was
right about Josh's crush.

- Was he right about Georgia
on the zipline as well?

- Not according to Georgia.

There was an incident between
you and Ms. Winton at camp.

She pushed you down
the zipline, apparently.

- Oh, right.

- She pushed you?

- It wasn't a big deal.

I was being chicken.

- Teachers can't lay
hands on students.

That's wildly inappropriate.

- She didn't lay hands on me,
and anyways, is that really

what's important right now?

- Hey, we're going to do
something for Ms. Winton,

like a memorial or something.
Do you want to come?

- Yeah, sure.

It's a lovely idea.

What are you going to do?

- Not sure yet, but there's
a bunch of us getting together.

- So can I go?

- Sure.

We're done, for now.

- Text me if you need anything.

- I will.

- It'll be good for them
to express their grief.

- I'm not actually sure it
was grief for all of them.

- Well, it seems
pretty real for Josh.

- I haven't felt like
this since Mum and-

I know, I know sounds stupid
and I know it's not the same,

but I just-

I don't know.

- It's another loss.

Grief is its own thing.

You don't have
to explain it to feel it.

[soft music]

?

[beep]

?

- They want me to go with them.

Is that- is that cool?

- Yeah, of course.

Yeah.

- Okay.

- Sounds like there might
have been some mummy issues

mixed in with Josh's crush?

- Maybe, but a crush
is a crush.

Ella can't have
been happy about it.

- We need to talk
to her anyway.

What do the teens have
planned for the memorial?

- Some sort of vigil
up by the crime scene.

You okay with that?

Winiata and Crumb are on site.

- Sure.

Let them do their thing.

[guitar playing]

- ? I'm ready now,
won't you please ?

? take me down to the river?

? Wash my body, cleanse
my soul down in the river ?

? Wash away my sins,
let them flow away ?

? Till I'm purer than
I was before I came ?

? Wash over me

? Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm

? Wash over me, wash over me

? Wash over me

? Mm, mm, mm

- Not a bad turnout.

People always get more
popular when they die.

- This is yours.

Yours is coming.

- Thanks.

What's up with him?

- Oh, I'm keeping
my eye on him.

- Why?

- Well, he's missing Hannah.

It's never easy losing
the love of your life.

I'm just going to go
check up on him.

- Mm-hmm.

A lot of engagement
with these vigil posts.

Whoa.

- What?

- Well, it's mostly
what you'd expect.

So sad, she'll be missed, rest
in peace, et cetera, et cetera.

But then there's
this speculation

that she was having an affair.

- Who with?

- Well, depending
on who's posting,

another teacher,
a student, or a horse.

Maybe they're studying
Catherine the Great in history.

- Anonymous accounts,
I'm guessing?

- Yeah, of course.

And they're not holding back.

"Karma's a bitch."

"Pedos deserve payback."

- Thanks for the heads-up.

- She's just in here.

We're about to head
to the vigil.

- Hey, I need to have
a chat with Ella.

How are you going?

- Is that one
of your official questions?

- No, just checking in.

You've been through a lot
in the last few months.

- What do you want to ask me?

- Okay, if we're going
to be official,

do you want your lawyer here?

- It's cool.

- What about another adult?

I could ask Mr. Munroe.

- Hey.

I thought I heard voices.

What's up?

- A few questions for Ella.

Take a seat.

There were rumors Ms.
Winton had an affair.

Had you heard them?
- Yeah.

I don't know who with, though.

Just that it was kind of dodgy.

- Where'd you hear that from?

- Everyone was talking
about it by the end.

- Your boyfriend Josh
was fond of Hannah.

- God knows why.

Ms. Winton was ancient.

- Sorry, Detective, where
are you going with this?

- It helps to establish
the attitudes

of people close to the victim.

- Look, I didn't
like Ms. Winton,

but I didn't kill her, okay?

In fact, I'm going back to her
vigil now, if I'm allowed.

- I can drop you off.

- I need another word
with you, actually.

- Oh, thanks, Frodo.

So you had feelings
for Hannah Winton?

- Bit more than
feelings, actually.

We dated.

- Really?

- After quiz night, she'd
come here most days.

We'd have a chat.

I kept trying to make
the foam on her latte

in the shape
of a Bunsen burner,

but it always came out
looking really wrong.

- Oh, thanks.

- It's a Bunsen burner.

- [weak laugh]

- And that's what
drew you two together?

- No, it was singles night
when things started looking up.

[bell ringing]

- That's your two minutes.

Gentlemen, move one
space to the right.

- Hannah had said she
wanted to try something new.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- How you doing?
- Good.

How are you?

- She was in a good mood too.

Really chatty.

So what are you looking
for in a relationship?

- True love.

Easy, right?

I had my heart broken
before I came to Brokenwood.

Coming here was supposed
to be a fresh start,

but I was still
pretty messed up

because I ended up in a
situation that was not good.

- Well, how come?

- It didn't align with
my values, shall we say?

But I'm ready to move
on now, meet my Mr. Right.

- She didn't take my card,
so, unfortunately, we

weren't a match.

What we had was brief,
but it was beautiful.

- So the situation that didn't
align with Hannah's values.

Karl?

- He's denied it
multiple times.

- And did so again when I
asked him about it today.

- The thought gives
me the ick, but

do we need to consider
Josh as the secret affair?

- And then it got twisted,
or his girlfriend Ella did.

- Maybe leaving the body
like that was a way to make

her look stupid, undignified.

- The offender
definitely wanted

someone to find her that way.

- Visitor for Chalmers.

- Hello.

- Use my office.

- Thanks.

Is it okay if Detective
Sims sits in?

- Sure.

- This way.

- Right, I guess I'll
make coffee then.

- Yeah, I'll have
a bickie too, thanks.

- I wasn't sure if I was
going to say anything.

Mr. Munroe got a bit
funny about it.

- Why is that?

- He said it would be more
respectful to Ms. Winton

not to keep talking
about the rumors.

- Okay.

- But I don't want
you thinking I

had anything to do with her
dying, so I'm here to help,

even if it gets me in trouble.

- We appreciate that.

- You wanted to know
who started the rumors?

It was Ms. Phipps.

- This is ridiculous.

They're saying the most
horrible things.

- Kids say stuff all the time.

They don't actually mean it.

- You are the only
one who knew.

And now everybody does.

Whispers when I
walk into a room.

No respect for a teacher.

- Did you really think
that you could just fool

around and not get found out?

- If you want to find Ms.
Phipps, she'll be at the vigil.

[non-English singing,
light guitar music]

?

- Sorry to interrupt.

- I hope this isn't a problem.

I think it's healthy
for the kids.

- Well, it's good
of you to be here.

- You and Hannah were
overheard arguing at camp.

- About you being
the source of some rumors

that were spreading about her.

- Okay, It's not what you
think.

A while back, we
ran into each other.

- How many more times
do I have to say it?

It's over.

Please don't call me again.

- Pizza.

- Boyfriend trouble?

Secret affair?

- No.

- Come and have a wine with us.

You can tell us all about it.

- No!

And it's not an affair.

- When was this?

- A month ago.

It was my birthday, and we
were having some drinks.

- Sorry, Sims, we're going
to need you to check this out.

Can you follow me?

- Sure.

Excuse me.

- And you shared
what you'd heard

with your group of friends

- Well, Hannah was hardly
the hot topic of conversation.

- Some of the kids at school
got wind of an affair.

Did they get that from you?

- It's a small town.

Everyone knows everything.

- Uh, there's
a surveillance camera.

[pensive music]

?

- A cannabis plot
located near the clearing

where Hannah's body was found.

Whoever installed the security
camera, presumably

the owner of the plot,
probably saw

us arrive and is
therefore lying low,

but the camera is
with the techies.

- Is it too much
to hope that the camera

caught Hannah's killer?

- Well, they would have had
to have made quite the detour.

- Unless that's
where they came from.

- There's no
record of any calls

on Hannah's phone from
the day that Ashley

overheard her talking to him.

[mellow music]

?

Toby.
Hi.

- Hey.

- Toby just popped by to see
Georgia and the others.

They're not here.

I'll tell the others
you came by.

Back so soon?

- We didn't take any food.

I'm starving.

- Help yourself.

- What's he doing here?

- I came to hang out.

- Why?
- Forget it.

It was a dumb idea anyway.

- He's such a creep.

- What do you mean?

[whispering]

- He makes music.
- Oh, yeah?

Really?

- Have you heard
the whole album?

- Shh!

I heard something.

[tense music]

?

- Who's there?

?

Hello?

Hello?

[knocking]

?

[screaming]

- Nobody bought
the sleepwalking thing.

It's just the only way he'd
ever get to see a girl in bed.

- We should go.

- I've got a headache.

I'm staying.

- I'm sorry about all that.

What can I do for you?

- Your phone and your laptop,
with apologies for the delay.

- Did you find anything?

- No.

- But we're now
confident that Hannah

was seeing someone regularly.

If you're not the mystery
man, any idea who is?

- If I knew anything more
about Hannah's love life,

don't you think I'd
have told you by now?

- Well, if Ella's reaction
is anything to go by,

Toby definitely wasn't there
to hang with his mates.

- That's the second time I've
seen Karl and Toby together.

What's that about?

- Meanwhile, the techies
came back on the weed camera.

It was placed there
as surveillance

by our friend in Riverstone,
Constable Graham Watts.

- Oh, really?

- Well, technically,
it's his territory.

- Yeah, but would it have
killed him to tell us?

- A member of the public
stumbled upon the plot

on their morning walk.

They filed a 105 report online.

Guess who?

Hannah Winton.

And it gets better.

Constable Watts placed
the camera two days ago

and today recorded this.

- Fraser Lennox.

- Yeah.

- So Hannah must have
been on one of her morning

walks from the camp
when she found the crop.

If Fraser saw
her, he could have

worked out who dobbed him in.

- And sought her out
to exact revenge?

- Bring him in.

- I told you, I'd
never seen that woman

until I found her body.

- But you admit
to growing the cannabis?

- For my own use!

- You'll be charged
with cultivation.

We'll need to search your house
too, unless that's a problem?

[upbeat country music]

? Spin your head around
and turn it upside down ?

? Talk of golden days
and their winning ways ?

? Allow your dreams to grow

- Personal use is
a bit of a stretch.

?

- Mike?
Yeah.

Hi.

He's definitely dealing.

Yeah, I'll just-
I'll call you back.

- Hi.

- Hi there.

- We got lost.

We're trying to find
our way back to the vigil.

- Yeah, we saw this place.

We were going to ask
for directions.

- Personal use, eh?

Oh, come on, Fraser.

We know you've been dealing.

And I'm assuming Hannah Winton
wasn't one of your customers.

It's unlikely, given
how anti she was.

So much so that she dobbed
in your little plantation

when she came across it.

I need your phone, please.

Thank you.

Oh, and you'll be
facing further charges.

- Should I be worried
by the sudden influx of police?

- Some new information
has come to light.

- Oh.

- This may seem left
field, but what was

Hannah's attitude to drugs?

- She never touched them.

Honestly, if there
were kids around,

you were lucky to have
a glass of wine.

I mean, I dared
to open a bottle of red

on the first night of camp.

The look she gave me.

And then when she
caught the kids boozing,

talk about over the top.

[upbeat music]

?

- Oh.

I can't.

That's disgusting.

- Look at this.

- All right, all
right, all right.

?

[laughter]

- Ella!

What would your mother say
if she could see you now?

- Like she cares.

She got done for snorting
coke in the school

toilets, remember?

[laughter]

- You should be ashamed
of yourselves, all of you.

You're supposed to be
Brokenwood High's best and

brightest, and this
is how you behave.

If I catch anyone
breaking the rules again,

they will be stripped of their
prefect badge and sent home.

Is that clear?

Give me the bottle.

Get up.

Go to your cabins, now.

- I mean, just quietly, I
think she let acting principal

get to her head.

You know, I would have been
way more chill, you know?

Let the hangover
be the punishment.

[phone ringing]

- Oh.

[gentle music]

?

- You okay?

- Oh, yeah.

Yeah, I just thought
I'd check on the kids.

Georgia hasn't been
answering her texts.

- Oh, well, she and Aki got
lost for a little while,

but they're fine now.

Maybe they lost reception.

- Yeah.

?

- The tech guys have
identified a series

of calls from Brokenwood
High to Karl's work phone

over the last three months.

We can't prove
it's Hannah, but-

- But what are the chances?

- Excuse me, Mr. Munroe

- I need to talk to you.

We did see each other again.

Not at first.

I tried to put her
out of my mind.

But then a few weeks later-

- Oh, sorry.

- Sorry.

Hello.

- Hi.

- How are you?

- Good.

- She told me she'd been
promoted to acting principal.

Said she'd been
finding it a bit tough.

I asked her if she
wanted to talk about it,

and that's how it started.

- An affair?

- But I felt guilty, and I
didn't want to hurt Jenny,

and I couldn't risk
losing Georgia,

so eventually, I built
up the guts to end it.

- When was this?

- A month ago.

- And you ended
the relationship?

- Yeah.

- And how did Hannah
feel about that?

- She was upset.

- Okay, guys, we're going to
stop for a quick drink and a snack,

and then we'll
make our way back.

- At camp, she avoided me.

- Just a heads-up, we may
have to talk to Jenny.

And if we do, I can't guarantee
that what you've just told

me will stay out of bounds.

Karl said Hannah was upset.

What if Hannah didn't
accept that the relationship

was over and wanted more?

Maybe he felt trapped by her.

What if she threatened
to tell Jenny?

- Well, we can't rule
out Jenny either.

I mean, yeah, she had
a hospital appointment

and mobility
issues, but she also

could have had an accomplice.

- Well, let's not
forget that Karl wasn't

Hannah's only love interest.

- You can't mean Frodo?

- Josh.

I talked to him again.

I was thinking about what
you told me about Ms. Winton.

- Yeah?

- We found out that she
was having some kind

of inappropriate relationship.

With who, we don't know.

- Not me.

- Okay, guys, we're going
to stop here for a quick snack

and drink, and then
we'll make our way back.

[soft music]

?

- I'm sorry about before
the obstacle course.

I didn't mean to offend you.

- I'm fine.

Don't touch me!

I'm sorry too.

I shouldn't have
been so abrupt.

I know you meant well.

You're very sweet.

[tense music]

Josh, no!

Don't ever do that
again, all right?

?

- So yet another
bruised male ego.

- And a wounded female heart.

Ella definitely knew
about the crush,

even if she didn't know
he'd put the moves on.

- I've got you.

- And nobody can vouch
for either of them

at the time of the murder.

[mellow music]

?

Tech report from
Fraser's phone.

There seems to be a symbol on
his contacts list denoting all

the names of his customers.

- Leaf emoji.

Cute.

- And one of those names was on
Brokenwood High's prefect camp.

- Georgia or Aki.

- Has to be.

- Yeah, I didn't buy
their little Hansel

and Gretel act when they turned
up at Fraser's yesterday.

Yeah.

I'll call you back.

- Yeah, it's Aki's
name on the list,

and there are texts between
him and Fraser arranging

a pickup early Friday morning.

- What time?

- 7:00 AM, at the clearing
where Hannah's body was found.

Ah.

I'm sorry to bother you again.

Is Aki about?

- He's at the shop with
Georgia covering for Jenny.

- Oh, is she having a bad day?

- There are things that she and
I need to discuss in private.

- I see.

- Look, I've told
you where he is now.

What do you want?

- Well, we can't
actually interview

Aki without an adult present.

- Right.

Give me half an hour,
and I'll meet you there, okay?

- Appreciate it.

Oh, and just
so you know, we may

need to talk to Georgia too.

- Fine, fine.

[door closes]

- Yeah, see you tomorrow.

And thank you so much
for putting your trust in me.

It means a lot.

Bye.

Sorry.

- No worries.

- That was just the chair
of the school board.

They've made me
acting principal.

You know, we did have
to make a decision about

opening tomorrow, and I
think it's best to carry

on as normal, don't you?

There will be
an assembly first thing

to talk about poor Hannah,
so I'll have to spend

tonight writing something.

I mean, it's
the least I can do.

- I'll try not to keep you.

I'm just following
up on a conversation

you had with my boss
around Hannah's attitude

towards drugs.

We now believe that
a student arranged

to meet with a dealer
at the zipline on the morning

of Hannah's death.

We're just trying
to find out what

Hannah or anyone else on the
camp may have known about that.

- Huh.

It's news to me.

I thought I was pretty clued up
with what the kids get up to.

I'm going to have to keep
a sharper eye out now

that I'm in charge, won't I?

[mellow music]

?

- Come in.

You can close
the door behind you.

- Thanks.

I'm glad you're both here.

It'll make things
easier, if you don't

mind sitting in with Georgia.

- No, not at all.

- [non-English speech]

- Is there another
room we can use?

- Yeah, sure.

This way.

- We've arrested
a local drug dealer.

Your name was one
of his contacts.

- Really?

- Aki?

Okay.

- There are texts
between the two

of you organizing a meetup
at the zipline on the morning

of Ms. Winton's death.

- I didn't go.

- Well, yes, that's
what you said at first,

but then after
canceling the meeting,

you then reinstated it.

- Yeah, I didn't go.

- That's not what
the text says.

- I changed my mind.

Ms. Winton was cracking down
after the drinking thing.

- If I catch anyone
breaking the rules again,

they will be stripped of their
prefect badge and sent home.

Is that clear?

- I didn't want to get
caught, so I bailed.

- Okay.

If you didn't go,
where were you?

Originally, you said
you were in your cabin.

Is that true?

- I was with Georgia.

- What?

- That early in the morning?

What were you doing?

- Yeah, what were you doing?

- We were in my cabin.

- We could be alone there.

- Alone to do what?

- Not that.

Being at camp just gave us a
perfect chance to be together.

- Did anyone see you together?

- No.

- When did this start?

- I'll ask
the questions, thanks.

When did this start?

- It's pretty recent.

- I've always
kind of liked him.

- Have you?

- Is Aki in trouble?

- Not for missing a drug deal.

The dealer confirmed that this
particular deal didn't happen.

- But there were others?

- I'll leave you two to talk.

- Well, I wouldn't want to be
sitting at their dinner

table tonight.

- Isn't it convenient
that Aki and Georgia can

suddenly vouch for each other?

- I don't know.

Teen hormones running wild.

Probably telling the truth.

- Is that-

- Toby Burrows?

Yeah.

This is his happy place.

We don't have to go
inside, do we?

Because my nostrils
have only just

recovered from the last time.

- Can I speak to Detective
Shepherd, please?

- Jenny, come on through.

- I'm worried what
this all means for Aki.

His parents are already
stressed about what's going on.

Dreading having to tell
them that their son has

come to police attention
for buying weed.

- For what it's worth, Aki's
drug buying is not really

a priority for us just now.

I imagine things at home
are fraught at the moment.

- Karl told me
about the affair.

It's a lot to take in.

- You had no idea before this?

- None.

Boy, do I feel
stupid about that?

My MS symptoms have
been getting worse.

It's- it's distracting,
to say the least.

Karl was behaving differently.

I- I didn't notice.

- How did it end?

Did he say?

- He realized what he stood
to lose and called it quits.

Perhaps I should be
grateful for that.

- When was this?

- A few weeks ago, he said.

Month.

- Karl told her the same thing
he told us about the affair

and when it ended.

- So if she's only
just finding out now,

then she didn't have a motive.

- Or she's lying,
she had motive,

and would have
needed an accomplice.

Okay, see you.

Any idea where he's going?

- Huh.

- Cool.

I'll just talk to myself then.

- Come on.

I'll help you
write a bio, and we

can take a photo that
is isn't a selfie

looking up at your nose.

- I don't know.

- [non-English].

There's plenty
of fish in the sea,

but you have to get
in the water, or in this case,

signing up to a dating app.

- I wouldn't know about that.

- What you had with
Hannah was special,

but she'd want you to be happy.

- Frodo, a quick word.

You told me that
Hannah mentioned

a recent relationship.

- Yeah, that's right.

- Did she tell
you how it ended?

- Well, she called time.

It wasn't right for her,
and she knew it.

You got to love a woman who
knows her own mind and heart.

- And she definitely
wasn't dumped?

- Who would dump her?

- Thanks, Frodo.

Oh, good luck with that.

And don't rush into marriage.

[phone rings]

Sims.

- Hey, Mike.

You know how we never release
the details of how Hannah died?

- Yes?

- There's several
social media posts

with the hashtag #RIPMsWinton.

There's a bit of speculation
about her death,

how her body was found.

But the thing is, somebody
has got it exactly right.

- Fraser didn't mention
anyone else in the clearing

that morning.

- Well, maybe there
was and he didn't know,

or maybe he got chatty
with someone later.

- One of the students?

- I got the tech team to trace
the IP address of that account.

Well, just hang on a minute.

Sorry.

What's up?

Hey, Mike, Karl Munroe
just made a 111 call.

Toby Burrows was
found unconscious

behind the game shop.

[pensive music]

?

- Hey.

- How's he doing?

- Yeah, mild concussion
and memory loss.

He was unconscious for a while.

- What happened?

- I don't know.

I was headed to Jenny's
shop from the back car park,

and I saw the poor guy just
collapsed on the ground.

- Right.

- His parents are worried
it might be something

neurological, to do
with his sleepwalking,

so they've asked
for further tests.

- Fair enough.

- Doctor says he needs
to rest, so no questions.

- There's a security camera.

We've got some footage.

- Not much use, though.

- The camera points
towards the alleyway,

but there's no angle
on where Toby was found.

- No one in the alleyway in the
moments before the assaults.

I mean, did the offender
teleport in?

- Or they walked through
the back door like we did.

- The alleyway leads
to the main car park,

directly in the camera's
line of sight.

If Karl came the way
he said he did,

he should be on that footage.

- But he's not.

- If your story was true, that
camera would have seen you.

- Toby will be
ready to talk soon,

and we'll be very interested
to hear what he has to say.

- Given all that, Karl, what
do you want to tell us now?

- I'd like a lawyer.

- What's this about?

- An anonymous account
has posted details

online about how Ms. Winton's
body was found, details

we haven't made public.

That account was traced
back to Georgia's phone.

- Georgia?

- So was it just uncannily
accurate speculation,

or is there something
you're not telling us?

- Answer the question, hon.

- I was there.

[heavy music]

?

- Why didn't you say anything?

- Because I didn't want
to get in any more trouble.

So I told Aki to tell people
that we were together.

- Oh, darling.

- What were you doing there?

- I was there to get bud.

- What?

- I knew Aki had a dealer, and
I wanted to set up a meeting,

but he wouldn't.

- Ms. Winton's on the lookout.

- I don't care!

- I do.

I don't want her
calling my parents.

You know they'll take
me out of school, make

me move over there with them.

Just leave it, okay?

[tense music]

?

- Sweetheart, you
shouldn't have done that.

- You need it.

I wanted to help.

- You need it?

- Cannabis helps
with my MS symptoms.

But how did you know that?

- Aki.

- And how did Aki know
that cannabis helped?

I found him smoking
one day at home.

I confiscated it,
then got curious.

There's a lot of talk
in the online groups I

follow about how weed
helps with pain and sleep,

so I tried it.

It helped.

And then Aki busted me smoking.

- So Aki and you shared
a secret and Aki effectively

became your supplier?

[phone rings]

- Sorry.

Excuse me.

- Aki.

Georgia's just
finished telling me

that you two weren't,
in fact, together the morning

Ms. Winton's body was found.

Where were you?

- The cabin, boy's cabin.

- Did you know the whole
time that you've been here

and said nothing?

- Know what?

- That was Karl.

He needs a lawyer.

- Are you feeling up
to answering some questions?

- Mr. Munroe.
- Huh?

- You want to know
who assaulted me.

Mr. Munroe.

- Are you sure?

You're not still-

- My mind is perfectly clear.

First thing I saw when
I came around, his face.

- I'll give you
anything you want.

Yeah, double it.

Just don't say anything
about any of this.

- Why would he do that?

- Before I say any
more, I want to know

that I can get a plea deal.

- A what?

- A plea deal.

If I say anything
that incriminates me,

I want to know that I'll
get a lesser sentence.

Fine.

Mr. Munroe and I had
made an arrangement.

I wouldn't disclose
certain intel I'd acquired,

and in return, he would fund
my next tactical campaign.

- You were blackmailing him.

- If you have to put
a label on it, I suppose-

- You were blackmailing
him because?

- Because he was having
an affair with Ms. Winton.

- Mr. Munroe claims that the
relationship ended weeks ago.

- Not from what I saw.

- We can't keep doing this.

- No, no.

- No, no.

No more.

No, no.

We can't- no.

Toby, are you all right?

- It's okay.

He sleepwalks.

Yeah, come on, mate.

Let's get you back
to your cabin, eh?

That's it.

This way.

Okay.

- You can remember what
you see when you sleepwalk?

- I'm one of the rare few.

- And you realized
you could use what you

saw to blackmail Mr. Munroe.

- Oh, I see it more
as a strategic advantage.

Yes, I blackmailed
him, and he paid up.

- How much?

- Just enough for a few
essential items.

One doom merchant
and two soul hunters.

They're essential
on the battle plains.

It's over now, isn't it?

I should have asked
for more up front.

- I should never have gone
along with it the first time,

but I panicked.

- And then he came
back asking for more?

- Yeah.

- I'm going to need more money.

- No.

- I have more gear
that I want to buy.

- Well, then get a job.

- But why when this is
working out so well?

- It's not working anymore.

My wife knows, so no.

No leverage, no money.

- Do the police know
you were hooking up?

- What did you just say?

- I'm sure they'd be interested
to learn that you were

having an affair
with a woman who

was murdered the next morning.

- Don't you dare say a thing.

- [groans]

- My client did
the right thing.

He called for help.

- He did.

Doesn't mean he didn't
assault him first.

Just the latest in a series of
lies from you, isn't it, Karl?

For once, Miranda didn't
get to say charge him or let

him go because I charged him.

- Assault so he can hang
on to him for a bit.

- Okay, so an assault charge
and then a homicide charge.

Karl killed Hannah
because she couldn't have her.

Man, this guy just
gets better and better.

- Yeah, I kind of buy
him poisoning her,

but strapping her to a zipline
is pretty sadistic for a guy

who claims to love her.

- I do not ever want
to be loved like that.

- I still think
Hannah being trussed

up like that was a message.

If Karl killed her, who
was that message for?

- Georgia.

- Why would Karl do that
to his own daughter?

- Okay, what if it was
her message to him?

She was there
hoping to buy drugs

from Fraser to alleviate
her mum's MS symptoms,

and she lied to us.

Remember, at her mum's shop?

- [non-English speech]

- I'd be willing
to bet she was telling

him to stick to their story.

Maybe she knew
about the affair.

- Senior.

- Jenny.

How can I help you?

- Aki has something
he wants to tell you.

- Ah, your timing
couldn't be better.

Come through.

We already know
that you weren't

with Georgia on the morning
that Ms. Winton died.

- That's not all.

- Go on.

- Mr. Munroe arranged to meet
Ms. Winton that morning.

- How do you know that?

- I heard them.

[footsteps]

- It's all right, mate.

Toby was sleepwalking again.

He's lucky that Ms. Winton
and I were still up.

Otherwise, he could have
wandered off anywhere.

That's it.

Into bed.

And you should be asleep too.

Night.

- I couldn't sleep.

I needed to use the bathroom.

- Hannah, listen.

- Karl, I just don't think
we can do this anymore.

- Can we just talk?

Come on.

Give me a chance, please.

- Not now.

- Okay.

What about tomorrow morning,
early, when no one else

is around?

I'll meet you at the zipline
by the bottom platform.

- We take separate tracks.

6:45.

If you're not
there, I won't wait.

- Talk to Toby.

- You okay?

- How long have you known this?

- Only a couple of hours.

Aki was a mess when he told me.

- You should have
come to us sooner.

- I couldn't.

I didn't- I didn't want
to think it was true.

Mr. Munroe is like a dad to me.

Better than my real dad.

He actually cares, you know?

[gentle music]

?

- What have you got?

- Yeah, Toby
confirmed Aki's story,

but he didn't see
him leave the cabin.

He was asleep, like Aki said.

- Thanks.

I'm sorry to keep you waiting.

We have a witness who claims
to have overheard you and

Hannah planning to meet
on the morning that she died,

at the site where
her body was found.

- What witness?

- One we're
inclined to believe.

- Okay, yes, we agreed to meet.

- What time was this?

- 6:45 AM, lower
platform of the zipline.

But I didn't go.

- Why not?

- Well, the dumbest
reason in the world.

I slept through my alarm.

- Please.

- No, it's true.

Maybe my subconscious
already knew

that Hannah was a lost cause.

- It doesn't sound like
you did end the affair.

- No.

Hannah ended it.

- And you weren't
ready to let her go.

And if you couldn't
have her, then no one

else could have her either.

- No.

I loved her, and she
loved me too.

But she just couldn't bring
herself to split up a family.

- And you could?

- I didn't see
Hannah that morning,

and God knows, I
didn't kill her.

- But if you did,
why did you feel

the need to strap her to the
zipline and send her flying?

- One more time, it wasn't me.

[country music]

? I pass you on the street,
and my eyes go down ?

? And your number's
on the screen, ?

? so I let the call ring out

? You say you want to see me,
say you want to be my friend ?

? But something
doesn't feel right ?

? I won't pretend,
I won't pretend ?

? What if I'm wrong?

? What if I'm wrong?

? What if I'm wrong?

? Always go with
what my bones say ?

? And my bones say
follow your heart ?

? Always go with
what my bones say ?

- Kristin, I'm going
to swing by the Munroe house.

- Okay.

Say hi to your mum for me.

Bye.

Josh is taking Ella
to the airport.

Her mum finally
got a flight back.

- No one's getting
lost in that, are they?

- It's Karl's.

- Would have been
handy at camp.

- Hmm.

What can I do for you?

- Something's
been bothering me.

Hannah's death
wasn't pleasant, but

the way her body
was discovered,

that was just cruel.

I think Hannah's killer
intended for someone

to find her that way.

But who?

I mean, we know Georgia
was in the area,

but would Karl do that
to his own daughter?

- He wouldn't.

- He had an appointment
with Hannah

and no one to confirm
his story about sleeping

through his alarm.

- It's all I've been
able to think about.

- Alternatively, it
could have been Karl

who was meant to find Hannah.

After all, her death would
have hurt him the most.

- But it wasn't Karl
who found the body.

- True.

- I'm not sure why you're
telling me all this.

- I just have a few
more questions.

- Fine.

Take a seat.

- My questions are for Aki.

- You told us you were
on the way to the toilet

when you overheard
Mr. Munroe and

Ms. Winton arranging to meet.

- Yeah.

- But the ablutions block
is in the opposite direction

to the campfire.

- I saw them talking.

Mr. Munroe's body language
was kind of aggressive,

so I stopped to listen.

- Mr. Munroe told us that
he didn't go to that meeting

with Miss Winton.

It's true that he
doesn't have anyone

to corroborate his
whereabouts that morning,

but then, neither do you.

- And for a while,
you and Georgia

were telling us that you were
together, but that was a lie.

- Being a prefect is
important to Georgia.

We didn't want anyone finding
out about the drug deal.

- It was only when
that story fell apart

that you came forward with what
you knew about Karl and Hannah,

to divert attention
away from yourself.

- Pure speculation.

- Indulge me.

The only person,
apart from Karl,

who knew that Hannah would be
at the zipline that morning

was you.

- You don't know that.

She could have told Ms. Phipps.

- Ms. Phipps, who's
all but admitted

to spreading rumors about her?

I don't think so.

- You left your cabin
that morning.

You intercepted Hannah
on her way to the zipline.

[tense music]

?

- Oh, Aki.

You're up early.

Is everything okay?

- Fine.

I- I've just-

I've been thinking about
what you said, about my work,

about being distracted.

You're right.

- Oh, good.

It's like I said, I
want you to do well.

- You persuaded her to go
to the top of the zipline

rather than the endpoint.

You'd already had
time to prepare.

?

- Wow.

- It's so pretty, right?

- You're going to do so well
if you put your mind to it.

- Drink?

- Oh, thanks.

Oh my god.

What have you done?

[groaning]

[tense music]

?

- She would have
succumbed to the poison

in less than a minute.

?

But that minute must
have felt like an hour.

?

You then readied
Ms. Winton to send

her down to meet Mr. Munroe.

But Karl never showed up.

Fraser was wearing the same
kind of yellow parka

that you'd seen Karl wear.

Easy mistake to make.

Georgia was at the clearing
and saw Hannah's body arrive.

Later, when she
needed a cover story

as to where she
was that morning,

you were happy to help because
you needed a cover story too.

- And when Georgia
came clean, you

needed to deflect attention
away from yourself

by implicating Mr. Munroe.

- That's quite
the tale, Detective.

I can't wait to hear what
you think Aki's motive

could possibly be.

- Well, it depends on whether
Aki was acting alone.

He and Jenny have already
admitted to keeping

one secret, smoking dope.

Perhaps Jenny found out about
Karl's affair year earlier than

she's admitted and enlisted
Aki's help to see

off a threat to her marriage.

- No, no.

I did my best to make
sure she didn't know.

- About the affair?

But you knew.

How?

- I wasn't supposed
to, but one day, I

saw Mrs. Morpeth,
the school librarian,

dropping something
in the letterbox.

I was worried it was
about my school grades.

If my grades were
down, my parents

said I'd have to move
with them to Japan.

[foreboding music]

?

- I'm still waiting
to hear a plausible motive.

- To take Hannah
out of the picture,

and to punish Karl
for playing reckless

with your adoptive family, the
place you feel safe and loved.

But catching them
together late at night

tipped you over the edge.

- When we turned
up to the camp,

you couldn't understand why
Karl hadn't found the body.

You couldn't imagine
him revealing the affair

or becoming a serious suspect.

After all, the plan was to keep
the Munroe family together, not

split them apart.

- That would have meant
going back to Japan

for your last year of school.

- You don't know what
that's like for me.

My parents-

I don't have a life there.

- Can I see him?

[soft music]

?

? I've got to tell you,
and I must be honest ?

? It hurts sometimes

? I've felt anger,
but not in a while ?

? But the sadness
hangs around ?

? Well, he's running,
and he's hiding ?

? From the water
and the grief ?

? You could ask him,
ask him about it ?

? And he'll lie
through his teeth ?

? We're trying to repair

? Something that's not there

? Love

? Oh, oh, oh,

? Love

? Oh oh, oh

- Hey, morning, gents.

- Hey.

You seem more chipper today.

- Well, I realized something.

My own heart might
be hurting, but I can

still help others find love.

- Aw.

How?

- You do this job long enough,
you start to get an insight

into people's personalities.

Yeah, from what they order.

You put the right
orders together

with a bit of coffeeology,
and you get a love match.

- Oh.

- Don't believe me?

Have a look over there.

Macchiato and a soy latte.

Match made in heaven.

Over there, two ristrettos
vibing perfectly.

- What about these two?

- Decaf latte and triple
shot long black.

Classic case
of opposites attract.

- I did order
takeaway, didn't I?

- Yeah.

What can I get you guys?

- I'm good.

- Long black, please,
but I'm not looking for love.

- Come on.

I know you're
a romantic at heart.

How many times have
you been married?

- Too many.

- Mike.

What a good way
to start the day.

A triple shot cappuccino
with cinnamon and chocolate.

- Sure.

- What does that mean, a long
black and a cappuccino?

- Triple shot?

You put those two together,
and you either get fireworks

or you burn the house down.

- Oh, I love fireworks.
