[dramatic violin music]

How do I look?

-Uncomfortable.
-Hm.

Beware all enterprise that
requires new clothes.

[chuckles]

Wasn't that Dr. Goldberg?

And now she is going to think
I am getting married.

[upbeat violin music]

How was it?

Yeah, it was good.

Fancy another coffee?

Why are we here?
It's not your...

No, no, no.

Clean bill of health.
-Oh, good.

I was hoping I might be able to
twist your arm.

Police fundraiser?

We'll just do a couple of tunes,
it'll be nice.

Dad, we've been over this so
many times, alright,

I've swapped shifts. It's done.

Oi!

Dan, I spoke to your boss.

If you don't want to say a few
words about Lisa you don't...

Dad, just drop it, alright?

[car hoots]
[thump, people scream]

Oh my God!

[suspenseful music]

Okay, call an ambulance.
My phone's on the table.

-Okay.
-Hey, hey, hey...stay back.

-He walked right in front of me.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know,

I know, I saw it.
Don't do that, don't do that.

Keep your eyes open.

That's it, look at me.

You're gonna be okay, alright?

I'm a police officer.

Just look at me.

LISA: Dan.

[sorrowful music]

I pushed him. I...

I killed him.
[siren wailing]

What?

Who, who, who did you kill?
Who did you kill?

No, no, no, come on,
don't do that.

Don't do that, don't do that.

Come on, look at me.

Look at me, look at me.

Don't do that, come on.

[theme music]

[doorbell rings]

I am not about to be betrothed.

Contrary to what you think you
may have witnessed

in the window of
the gentleman's outfitters,

uh, I am not getting married.

Your aunt?

Yes, I...I just heard.

Yes, exactly.

Uh...

well, um...

I must go. Um...

I assume you're here to
deliver my invitation...

to the wedding.

Oh, uh...

No.

Oh, right. [laughs]

Hmm.

Give your aunt my best.

[door closes]

Yeah, good. Oh, Dan,
I got some details

on that accident that you
witnessed.

The driver's record was clean.

There was nothing in his system

to suggest impaired judgment.

The deceased was Jay Morgan,

a second-year Land Economy
student at Cambridge.

DC Highsmith?

I'm okay, Ma'am, I'm just
waiting for DS Winters.

Well, he's right here. Come in.

Drew a blank.

On what?

I, uh, I asked Chloe

to check out hospitals,
mortuaries,

find out if they had any
admissions that, um...

That there might be signs they
were a victim of an, uh,

an assault.

Jay Morgan's last words were,
I killed him.

Yeah, we've got a murder to
investigate with no body.

No, we don't.

If we get a body,
then we investigate.

Our stats are just picking up.

Let's not invent work for
ourselves, please.

-Sure.
-Okay.

[light music]

[sheet swishes]

Cause of death,

intracerebral hemorrhage.

From the car or the fall?

You were there.
It could have been either.

Most of the samples haven't come
back from the lab yet.

[whooshing]

The way he was moving, um...

[dark music]

he seemed absolutely smashed.

MEDICAL EXAMINER:
Blood alcohol level

was just over the legal limit.

So, he shouldn't have been
unsteady on his feet.

Unless he had a very low
tolerance.

One sample, which we
did get back,

indicated raised diuretic
levels.

-Is that significant?
-Could be.

Diuretics are a way of masking
anabolic steroids.

Professor, I found this in your
recycling bin.

I had no idea your duties
included scavenging.

It's an invitation to
the Science Innovation lecture.

Lyndon Collins is giving a talk
on gene editing.

Which is why it was in the bin.

What he's proposing could
eradicate violent crime,

put you out of a job.

Tell him.

The Dean of Life Sciences thinks
Collins has a product that,

once approved,
would benefit the university.

And this concerns
Miss Snares...why?

I believe she's stepping out
with Mr. Collins.

-Ah.
-Impressive guest list.

Experts in neurology,
psychology, social sciences.

Oh, Dr. Goldberg.

Oh, oh, when is it?

Two o'clock, Wednesday.

Drinks to follow.

Hm.

[dog barking distantly]

[knocking on door]

DS WINTERS: I'm so sorry for
your loss.

So, Jay rowed for his college?

Proudest day of my life when he
got accepted to Cambridge.

Such a relief.

Why was it a relief?

[sighs]

This neighborhood.

Nothing to do.
-Thanks.

Kids get drawn into things.

What sort of things?

Oh...

Jay used to drink 'cause
he was bored.

Would you say he had a problem?

No, once he got fit, he rarely
touched the stuff.

There's a lot of pressure on
athletes to bulk up.

Do you know if Jay took anything
to help with his physique?

No. My Jay was totally against
all that.

How'd he fit in?

At university?

[exhales]

It was hard.

He got a sports scholarship in
the first year, but...

this year was...

financially hard.

And, um...

was he close to anyone
on the rowing team?

He didn't talk to me about
university.

He was there, and...
[melancholic music]

I was here, and...

there was a river between us.
Sorry. [sobs]

-That's alright, don't...
-[ironic chuckle]

[oars splashing]

[dramatic music]

COACH: Come on!

Long, fluid strokes!

Long, fluid strokes.

Come on, yes, yes.

DS Winters.

I called your office.
-Nobody told me.

-It's about Jay Morgan.
-I'm busy.

-Do you know about Jay?
-Of course, I know.

I've lost half my team.

This is my priority.

[oars splashing]

Did Jay have a problem with
alcohol?

What about steroid use, is that
an issue at this level?

A day like today, and you come
here with rubbish like that.

I'm trying to find out why
a young man

walked in front of a car.

Well, let me know when you do.

[phone rings]
Come on.

Bring it in. Alright, come on.

-Winters.
DC HIGHSMITH: Tina Northam.

Jay Morgan's rowing instructor.

Yeah, I've just been talking
to her.

She was one of the coaches on
the US Great Lakes rowing team.

Quit two years ago after
she was accused

of encouraging some of the team

to use performance-enhancing
drugs.

Are you gonna bring her in?

I think I'd better run it past
DCI Goswami.

Okay. See you later.

Alright.

Professor.

Two things you should know
before you sit in judgment.

Lyndon Collins is developing
a product

that will be worth millions.

He has refused to take part in
any future revenue streams.

Why? Because he's doing it
to honor his brother

who was killed following
an unprovoked violent assault.

Why are you telling me this?

Lyndon would like to deliver
a lecture to your students.

Thus, gaining him credence with
the regulatory agency.

The product has already been
approved in other countries.

Mr. Collins' reputation precedes
him somewhat.

That was 10 years ago.

People change.
-Do they?

The least you could do is listen
to what he has to say.

I intend to. Wednesday at two.

Hmm.

He's fine, by the way...

my father, if you're asking.

I'm sorry?

Despite you persuading your aunt

not to marry him.

I did nothing of the sort.
[upbeat music]

You can tell your aunt
I've never seen him happier.

The new manager at his residence

has relaxed the rule on dogs.

He's got himself a dandy
Dinmont.

I suggested he call it Zelda.

[knocking on door]
Ma'am.

Hm-mm. Oh, never a good sign

when you start with Ma'am.

Look, I know you said to drop
the Jay Morgan thing,

but the preliminary path report

said that his diuretic levels
were raised.

And why is that significant?

He was on the university
rowing team.

And his coach, Tina Northam,
she's...

she's got a reputation for
giving drugs

to her teams.

Where's all this coming from?

Oh, you've still got
DC Highsmith roped in.

[door closes]
In the US,

Tina Northam claimed
she was using natural products

to enhance performance.

But the other coaches said that
she was using

masking agents.
-Diuretics.

Masking for what?

BOTH: Steroids.

And you think that's why
Jay Morgan

walked out in front of a car?

Oh, I don't know, but...

what I do know is, steroids...

If he was on them.

If he was on them, yes.

Steroids can cause aggression,

mood swings, paranoia.

And you're gonna tell me
connects to this notion

that he thinks he killed
someone.

Yes.

Has anyone been reported missing
in the last 48 hours?

Not that we're aware of.

Okay, there is no case.

Chloe, I suggest you start
focusing on your exam.

It's your last chance.

Dan, I know you don't want to
let this go,

but there's nothing
to investigate.

I don't know what you mean,
I don't want to let this go?

A young person died in
your arms, Dan.

Just after being hit by a car.

[dramatic music]

I know, but what hap...

what happened has got nothing
to do...

Jay Morgan said,
"I killed him." Alright?

If you're asking me to ignore
a dying man's last words,

maybe I'm in the wrong job.

[door slams]

[wind whistling]

Good workout.

-Have you got a minute?
-No.

You told my colleague you lost
half your team.

Apart from Jay Morgan,
who else did you lose?

They're students,
they come and go.

Yeah, but you're very driven.

Got your own methods.

The Americans said you gave your
team masking agents.

[suspenseful music]

I just need the answer
to one question.

Who quit the team?

That was a long lunch.
Where have you been?

[clears throat]

I, um...

Chloe?

I went to speak to Tina Northam.

Shall we take this in here,
considering it concerns you?

Whose idea was it for Chloe to
see Tina Northam?

BOTH: Mine.

One of Tina Northam's rowers

didn't show up for practice
today.

-Has he been reported missing?
-No.

Get back to me when he has,
yeah?

[door slams]

She's only trying to help,
it's not her fault.

I know it wasn't her fault.

Of course she's trying to help.

I'm trying to help,
the Professor's trying to help,

your dad's trying to help.

Everybody's trying to help, Dan,

except you.

[dramatic music]

[mouths] I'm sorry.

[soft Italian singing]

[music increases in tempo]

CHLOE: Sorry.

[door closes with echo]

[melancholic music]

Jasper.

I need to see you.

I raised my voice at my
commanding officer.

You don't do that.

Is that why you're here?

A young guy got...hit by a car.

I tried to save him but, um...

he died.

I heard, um...

I heard someone call my name.

In here.

In moments of high stress,

auditory hallucinations
are not uncommon.

But what it tells me is there
may be an underlying cause.

Thought I should be over that
by now.

Should you?

Don't we just gradually learn to
live with tragedy?

Why is it so hard?

[soft music]

Life's complicated.

Contradictory.

It's often absurd.

And sometimes...

in order to survive,

we just need to accept that.

I've made such a mess.

I can't face Wilfred.

Perhaps you are experiencing
first-night nerves.

Adelaide's painting, the one
that was damaged,

Wilfred had it restored.

He's my sister's loyal
companion.

And he will remain so
once he is married.

Ever since I told Adelaide
that Wilfred had proposed,

she hasn't returned
a single call.

I have had the same problem.

How could I even think of coming
between them?

How could I have been so
selfish?

That is a very good question.

Why were you so selfish?

I was selfish because
I was in love.

Is that not reason enough?

No.

No, it's not.

Yes, it is.

Love is enough.

How'd it go?

I guess we'll find out tomorrow.

Did you answer all the questions
this time?

Nope.

How come?

Chloe?

I was late.

Just got this in from
the path lab.

Jay Morgan...

he showed low levels of
protein C and S.

Now, these proteins
aid blood clotting,

and he died from
a cranial bleed.

Which had nothing to do
with diuretics.

Nothing to do with steroids.

Well, don't get ahead of
yourself,

'cause based on what
you told me,

I requested some
more information.

These steroids can cause
blood clots.

So, to counteract that,
they add anticoagulants.

Bang on.

So, Tina Northam's still
in the frame?

[suspenseful music]

You got your case.

Go crack it.

Tina, our information indicates

a steroid may have been
responsible

for Jay Morgan's death.

I never gave anyone I trained

anything that could harm them.

Natural supplements,
that was all.

Okay.

What was in these natural
supplements?

Creatine, hibiscus,
caraway seeds.

Hibiscus and caraway seeds
are diuretics.

Well done, queen of
the internet.

Used to mask the use of
steroids.

Hibiscus and caraway
boost energy.

Did you get that far?

You told us you lost half
your team.

Now, the lads I spoke to
at the river,

they told me that Alex
Healey was the team captain.

-Alex quit.
-Why?

Get a second job.
His student loan

wasn't enough to survive on.

Were Jay and Alex friends?

I don't know.
They had a huge row

when Alex said he was quitting.

DS WINTERS: It all slots
together.

Masking agent, steroids,

aggression, Alex quits,
Jay attacks him.

Mm, kills him.

Yeah, gets drunk, hit by a car,

confesses. Is this it?
-No, it's that one down there.

Oh.

You do realize that if Alex is
here, that's your theory blown.

DS WINTERS: Excuse me.

Sorry, we're looking for
Alex Healey?

He's not in his room.

DC HIGHSMITH: Do you know where
he is?

No.

When d'you last see him?

Uh, a couple of days ago.

Why?
-Was he with anyone?

Yeah, a friend came by carrying
some beers.

And then I saw the same guy
by the river,

like an hour later.

Seemed pretty wasted.

Thank you.

[sinister music]
[crickets chirping]

I'll do the river.

Okay.

[tense music]

DS Winters.

Dan!

Hi, uh, this is DS Winters...

[birds singing]

[students chattering]

Good afternoon.

I am Lyndon Collins.

For the past four years,
I've been involved

in the development
of a product called...

Topranitzol.

Medication has been used to
modify gene expression

in the treatment of substance
abuse.

The medication I am here
to talk about today

will use the same methods
to prevent

individual acts of violence.
[dramatic music]

You see, the brains
of violent criminals

show striking anomalies.

In most cases, parts of the
amygdala are underdeveloped.

Through gene editing,
we can change this.

Alex Healey, 21-years-old,

no marks, no bruises
to the face, torso...

What about his arms?

Minor bruising on both forearms.

Jay Morgan said he killed
someone, said he pushed him.

Someone pushes me, I fall over,
that's where I land.

Bruising like this would never
cause the death

of a young, healthy man.

But because of
the Jay Morgan case,

I fast-tracked the protein test.

Low levels of protein C and S?

Unusually low.

Much lower than with Jay Morgan.

What's that mean?

With values this low,

a minor internal bleed
could cause

someone to go into shock
and die.

Especially if they had
a pre-existing condition.

Alex Healey had
thrombocytopenia,

a low blood platelet count.

Not usually life-threatening.

Unless someone gave him
something that made it worse.

Exactly.

Can we hold Tina Northam for
another 24 hours?

DSI GOSWAMI: Do we have
the grounds?

Yeah, it looks like Jay Morgan
and Alex Healey

were having a drink, right.

Jay's pushed Alex, he's fallen,

gone into shock and died.

And what's this got to do with
Tina Northam?

Uh, alcohol had an unusually
potent effect on Jay, and, um,

Alex has died from bruises

he normally wouldn't have
even noticed.

And?

They died because their blood
had been thinned

to an abnormal degree.

I think Tina Northam
gave them steroids

laced with anticoagulants.

[suspenseful music]

[people chattering]

No, thank you.

I've just spoken to
the Chancellor.

Two of our students have been
found dead.

She's wondering what you could
find out from the police.

Mm.

I treated those young men

like I would my own son.

One of those young men
died in my arms.

Everything I did
was to help them

become the men they could be.

Two of them will never achieve
that now,

will they?

So, how did blood thinners
get in their system?

By the time you admit you've got
this wrong,

my career will be over.

Jay Morgan died thinking he
killed his best friend,

and you're worried about
your career?

[people chattering]

I, I, I really think a further
lecture, properly publicized,

will help to sway public opinion

and expedite approval for the
product.

Mr. Collins thinks a talk

delivered to your students
would be beneficial.

Beneficial to whom?

The problem with this product,
of course,

is that one cannot
prove a negative.

Unless instances of violent
crime show a marked decrease.

The same could be achieved by
funding community projects.

I spoke with DS Winters,

two Land Economy students,

Jay Morgan and Alex Healey.

Oh.

Two of our students found dead.

Do the police know what
happened?

They have their theories.

They are waiting for the full
forensic reports.

MISS SNARES: Oh no,
that's awful.

Yes, it is.

But could we discuss the
possibility of another lecture?

Properly moderated, I am open to
the idea of a further talk.

Moderated by whom?

By myself, perhaps.

In order to undertake such
a role, I would, of course,

need sight of your research
materials.

We could do that now.

Er, I'm afraid that doesn't work
for me.

First thing in the morning,
come to the lab?

I look forward to it.

Um...

don't you have a wedding
to attend?

Oh.

Yes.

So, he came and knocked
on your door

to tell you he wasn't
getting married?

Yeah.

Doesn't that seem rather
telling?

No. I think it's rather him.

You signed him off?

Yes.

How did you feel?

Felt rather odd.

He made some remark,
which I took to be about

his drum therapist, and left.

-Drum therapist?
-Yes.

You said he didn't have
a sense of humor.

He doesn't.

He never smiles.

Well, he did smile...
on that occasion.

[soft music]

[laughs]

The smile you're mirroring.

Helena, it would seem that you
have genuine feelings

for this man.

No.

No, I...I, uh...

no, I, I...I refuse to allow it.
-Why?

Because I have a professional
reputation to think of.

Is that all?

No.

There's also, and I can't
emphasize this enough,

the ick factor.

The idea of a therapist
and a client in a relationship.

He's no longer a client.

Former client.

So, embarrassment
and professional probity

is preventing you from
doing something

that could bring you happiness.

[sighs]

[soft music continues]

[tuts]

I can't do it.

And I'm not going to.

[clears throat]

-Dan?
-Yeah?

Young lad there.

On the rowing team.

Tina Northam spoke to him about
taking steroids.

Really?
[suspenseful music]

He said he'll make a statement.

We've got her.

[exhales loudly]

[bell tolls]

[upbeat music]

[taxi engine rumbles]

[taxi door opens]

[door closes]

I thought Cambridge was supposed
to be safe.

Your car?

Two laptops, my phone,

slides, half a dozen USBs
all gone.

My life's work stolen.

Hm.

Is there any material at the lab

that I could look at?

It was all in there. Everything.

Hm. Have you reported it
to the police?

No, not yet.
[car door closes]

In that case, allow me to give
you a lift.

I insist.

[taxi engine starts]

[background chatter]

Professor, you wanted to see us?

A colleague of mine,

Professor Lyndon Collins,

has been trialing a new drug
called Topranitzol.

Collins has been testing
the drug on student volunteers.

I believe Jay and Alex were
amongst them,

and it proved fatal to them.

This Topranitzol has been
sold in...

nine countries.

On prescription,
with strict warnings.

What are the warnings?

That it must not be taken
with alcohol

and contains anticoagulants.

Jay was drunk, and Alex Healey
had a low blood platelet count.

Okay, let's get him in.

PROFESSOR T: He is already here.

I thought it best not to
waste time.

It is an important day.

[chuckles]

This is preposterous.

The back window of my car
was smashed.

You used Jay Morgan
and Alex Healey

as subjects for your
experiments.

I used many students.
[dramatic music]

I would check my records,
but as...

DC HIGHSMITH: Those have
been stolen.

It's convenient.

[DS Winters clears his throat]

Alex Healey...

he suffered from a, uh,
from a...

from a...from a condition that
slows clotting, you know,

so he should, uh...

he should never have been
a part of the trial.

And, uh, Jay Morgan was...

was, um...

was mowed down by a car.
[loud hooting]

[brakes squealing]
Oh, God.

[panicked breathing]

Don't do that. Don't do that.

Come on, look at me.

Look at me, look at me.

Don't do that. Come on.

[dramatic music]
[panicked breathing]

Dan.

[clattering]
[door closes]

Interview terminated.

[distant siren wailing]

Let me take over the interview.

No, no. I've got to do this.

Maybe this has just got
too much.

If I don't go back in there,
I might as well give up.

Okay. Alright.

You need to go.

You have obligations
of your own.

The fundraiser.
No, I'm not doing it.

Collins, he's too confident.
It's like...

it's like we've got nothing.

When he heard that Jay and Alex
were dead,

I could detect in his reaction

echoes of guilt, shame,
possibly even remorse.

[dramatic music]

Lyndon Collins

knows the impact of a sudden,

unexpected tragedy.

[door opens]

My solicitor is not here.

That's okay, um...

I'm here to...to chat.

Uh, informally, um...

I'll sit here.

[chair scrapes]

A year ago, um...

I lost someone I was close to.

And I'm telling you this
because...

I know what happened to
your brother.

Pressure on you...

to fill that void.

When my colleague, um...

colleague...

she was the woman
I was gonna marry,

I can't even say her name.
[voice breaks]

When she was killed,

I tried to do the job the way
she did, but...

I put people in danger.

I spoke to Jay Morgan's mother,

she sacrificed...

so much...

just to give him the chance
to go to university.

You know, she...

she needs to know what happened.

Alex Healey's parents too,
you know, they...

they need closure.

We all need closure.

Jay and Alex were the same age
as your brother.

[melancholic music]

20.

The button's right there,

if you choose to go on
the record.

You paid Jay and Alex,

as soon as we connect their bank
accounts to yours, it's over.

I'm not a bad person.

I know.

Say her name.

Lisa.

[sobs]

I wanted to make
the world a safer place.

[dramatic music]

Full confession.

You know, Lisa would have been
really impressed.

Maybe. [sniffs]

Ah, yeah.

Is that your result?

Oh, mate, I'm sorry.

[light music]
[sobbing]

Dan, I passed.

-You passed?
-Yeah. [laughs]

Oh, hey. Oh.

Well done.

Thank you.

It's alright.

[laughs, sobs]

For once, I seem to lack
the appropriate words.

What does one say to a colleague
whose paramour

has been charged with murder?

[scoffs]

You know what Collins
said to me?

He told me his work comes first.

I told him this dame plays
second fiddle to no one.

He was history long before
the unpleasantness.

[applause]
[car toots]

[joyous music]

-Dan.
-Hi, Dad.

Oh, I'm glad you decided
to come.

I solemnly declare that I know
of no lawful impediment

why I, Zelda Radclyffe,

may not be joined in matrimony

to Wilfred James Hamilton.

Would you like now to
exchange rings.

And if you wish, you may kiss.

[applause]

[cheering]

Ooh.

Aunt, I will see you
at the reception.

Where are you going?

I cannot believe I'm doing this.

Try not to crash.

WILFRED: Uh, Mrs. Hamilton,
the bouquet.

Uh, sorry, say that again?

-The bouquet.
-Not that bit.

-Mrs. Hamilton.
-Mm.

Oh wow.

[applause]

As many of you know, a year ago

we lost one of our most valued,

respected, and loved colleagues
in the line of duty.

And so, I'd like to dedicate
this event

to the memory of Detective
Inspector Lisa Donckers.

-To Lisa.
-ALL: To Lisa.

And now the band will play one
of Lisa's favorite tunes.

[applause]

I think maybe you...
you should do this.

Would you take one of your
students' exams for them?

-No.
-You've got this.

[dramatic music]
Mate, feel it.

[somber music]

[band performs]

[cheering & applause]

[light music]

[guests chattering]
Oh, he's here.

Yes. Jasper.

Your aunt was wondering
if you'd care to

make the inaugural speech.

Hm.

Ladies and...
[microphone feedback]

ah, the traditional burst of
feedback.

Ladies and gentlemen,
as the first person to speak,

I believe it behooves me
to welcome you all.

Of course, an occasion such
as this

could not be complete
unless blessed

by one unique woman.

Surprise! [laughs]

Zelda, the only reason
I exposed my plants

to the dubious ministrations
of Wilfred

is because I knew
you'd be there.

I was playing Cupid.
[laughter]

I first took notice of Zelda
when I was six.

I was upset about something,

and this little thing sat down
next to me

and took my hand.

Since that day, I've always
felt Zelda's hand in mine.

Growing up, I was amazed by her
sense of adventure,

and the talent that took her
around the world.

She showed me a different way
to live,

which is why I'm here.

And Wilfred, you watering my
plants is why you're there.

To my beloved sister and my
dearest, dearest friend

all my love.

From a place I've always
wanted to visit...

Adelaide.
[laughter, applause]

Chin-chin.

Ladies and gentlemen, would you
please charge your glasses

as I propose the first toast
to Zelda and Wilfred.

Zelda and Wilfred.
[applause]

Thank you so much. Thank you.

[dance music]

You received my invitation.

Mm.

[romantic music]

Are you gonna ask me to dance?

-Dr. Goldberg...
-Helena, I think, don't you?

Helena, may I have the pleasure?

Oh, goodness.

How do you feel?

I feel rather wonderful.

[romantic Italian song]
