[Maria] Previously on
"Recipes for Love and Murder"...

Marius Rabie is dead.

[Jessie] Why would he need
an autopsy for something obvious

like drunk driving?

Do they think he was murdered?

-He thinks I'm a killer, Ma.
-Stop it!

He cares more
about that damn badge

and being like his dead dad than

-he cares about his own family.
-Hey, enough!

Did you suspect
that Frank was having an affair?

-What?
-And then you and Frank met up?

I'm not proud about it, but yes.

You're sleeping with the woman

who was sleeping
with the murder victim.

[Jessie] "Just like Frank,

Marius was a sinner
who deserved to die."

I had hoped to present you
with a title deed

naming Aileen
as co-owner of this property.

Once they let
us into Marius Rabie's office,

we'll begin the sale process!

[tapping on glass]

[glass breaking]

[strains]

[softly] Honestly, Maria...

Ooh...

You could've
dressed better for this.

[keypad beeping]

[keypad beeping]

[keypad beeping]

[cellphone vibrating]

Maria, you wouldn't believe,
we got another...

-When's Dorette's birthday?
-What?

Maria, what are you on about?

Dorette's birthday. You did
a feature for the Gazette.

Was it in April?

-Hold on.
-[whispering] What's going on?

April 17th but, Maria, why?

Maria?

-Is everything alright?
-She just hung up.

-[keypad beeping]
-Bugger.

An anniversary, maybe.

-[beeping, unlocks]
-Gotcha.

[Maria] It's real, then.

[door unlocking]

What's going on?

[Maria] I'm terribly sorry
about the mess.

Broken glass
is a nightmare to clean up.

We must get my chicken before
the police impound my vehicle.

Hello, police?

There's an intruder.

Rabie Properties.

[whispering] Sorry.

Mm, I'll hold.

You often start work at 5 a.m.?

I didn't feel like sleep.
How did you know?

The security gate alerts me
when someone enters the code.

Come, I've had enough
of this. We've gotta talk.

-I'm just busy--
-Now.

[Piet] Sorry, Maria, but
you brought this on yourself.

[straining]

[scoffing]

What? You gonna fix me
like I'm a fucked-up Land Rover?

-I'm going to try.
-Ah...

It's too painful watching you
try and ignore everything.

[scoffing] I don't know
what you're talking about.

Yes, you do.
You're not an idiot.

So, what is it?

No rush.

I can do this all day.

[humming deeply]

[hushed] Piet? Piet...
Did I just see you arrest Maria?

For breaking and entering.

That hardly seems
like much of a crime.

Breaking and entering
is a crime.

Marius is dead. He's not
gonna press charges, Piet.

-This is Maria.
-I know,

but we can't just give everybody
the benefit of the doubt

just because we like them.

We can't afford to ignore
any possibilities, Regardt.

Not in cases like this.

It's about time we separate
our personal business

from police business.

[inhaling]

[humming deeply]

Hey, Jess, just thought
you might like to know...

Maria's been arrested.
Come to the station.

[kissing, moaning passionately]

[humming deeply]

-Okay, okay, fine!
-[humming stops]

For fuck's sakes!

Before I went to rehab,
I was using a lot.

I built up a lot of debt.

I promised
I'd deal for them but...

I don't know,
I just used it all myself.

And now, I owe them a fortune.

They left me alone in rehab,
but the minute I got out

they were hounding me.

They threatened to hurt my mom,
to frame Regardt with a crime...

So, you went on a robbing spree
the night of the fire?

I only took stuff

that I know people get money
back from the insurance for.

But then I dropped
my backpack and I lost my stuff.

And they were getting so mad,
and that's... that's why I...

You told them about my stash.

You knew?

It's pretty obvious, yes.

Why did you protect me?

I don't think jail will be
very useful for a guy like you.

So, you still owe them?

I promise, no more robberies.

And I'm clean now,
I promise you that too.

You can tick that
on your therapist card. A-plus.

I don't think
I can be your therapist anymore.

[scoffing] That's fine.

After settling my debt,
I am leaving town.

I think everyone
is better off without me here.

[door closing]

Mom, um,
I've gotta go. Okay? Okay, bye.

Mom always panics
when Jaco stays out.

He didn't sleep
at home last night?

No, he left after dinner.

What's new on Frank and Marius
this morning?

I had to know the truth.

And you didn't think of
just calling the Deeds Office?

That ghastly man

kept saying they were
going to take my house,

and didn't know if he
was bluffing, if it was real.

And the not knowing, well...
it was just torture.

You're losing your house?

Yes, and...

depending on what they think
of the answers I gave to Piet

maybe going to jail.

I mean, really going to jail.

-What were you charged with?
-[Piet] Breaking and entering.

But she just made bail.

So, you're Mrs McClintock, huh?

[softly] Yes.

McClintock?

Been looking
at this name all morning.

It's not one you hear every day.

Ay, yes. That's me right there.

[Maria] I thought
Jessie or Hattie would be here.

Did you ask someone
to call them?

No, but who bailed me out, Piet?

They're releasing
your bakkie now.

I'll get somebody to drop it.

Tell them
to be careful with third gear.

It catches a wee bit.

Maria, maybe
between here and your house

we can just talk as friends.

[indistinct chatter
on police radio]

How are you?

How are you really?

Sometimes I just wish I never
started answering the letters.

Do you remember
how peaceful things were?

None of the rest of us
wishes that, Maria.

This town needs you.

I think
they'd do just fine without me.

I'm beginning to wonder if Eden
is really the place for me.

I mean,
if I don't have my house...

what is really keeping me here?

Morag, for starters.

[chuckling]

Chickens don't
live very long, Piet.

Where have you been? I thought
you were making breakfast.

Oh, no.
Um, I just popped to town.

You should've told me,
I'd have come with you.

Well, no, we needed some bacon,
so I didn't want to bother you.

I'll cook now.

Marius' assistant contacted me.

Sent through a copy of the deed.

It's official.
This house is half yours.

And the rest,
once we've dug your brother up

and sealed
the case against Maria.

It's everything we wanted.

It's finally happening.

Where's Maria?
I heard she was brought in.

She made bail already.
She left a while back.

Why was she arrested?

That's confidential, Jessie.
You know the rules.

-[Jessie] Mm...
-Hey, Jess. You made it.

Um, did you know

that Maria was planning
to break into Marius' office?

Um... we need to talk, Regardt.

-Okay.
-Outside.

-Hey...
-I'm sorry, I can't do this.

You've never minded
kissing in public before.

-I'd like to do a bit more--
-No, it's not that, it's just...

I'm sorry. We need to break up.

What?

Jessie...

Jessie, why? What happened?

It's complicated.
I just can't do this anymore.

It's not fair on you.

Let's just talk about it,
Jess. We can get through--

No, I can't, Regardt.

We want different things.

It's better this way.
Please, just try and understand.

Maria! Just in time.

Aileen and I are planning
on opening some bubbly

to celebrate
the house going on the market.

We're listing
the house immediately.

Marius had it all prepared along
with some pre-approved buyers.

It should fetch
a pretty penny, don't you think?

Oh, and dinnae fret...

Your share will be sent over
once it's off our hands.

So very kind of you, Aileen.

So generous.

You should start packing.
We need you out by next week.

-It's only business, after all.
-Business?

Is it?

It always feels very,
very personal to me.

Officer, I must ask...

Is any foul play
suspected in Marius' death?

Oh, for goodness' sake, Gordon!

You said in your statement

that Georgie has been
seeing you for a few months.

For religious counselling, yes.

Georgie has been struggling
with her faith. She needed

a safe space to explore
her relationship with God.

And, did Frank know
about her safe space?

No, of course not.

Leaving the Adventist Church

would've meant leaving Frank
too. Georgie couldn't risk that.

You care about her a great deal?

Absolutely.

She's a woman of God who
has been through a great deal.

Do you love her, Father?

-Of course.
-Not in a priestly way, but...

are you in love with her?

I'm a priest.

And what if Frank found out
she was lying to him,

sneaking off... What if
he saw the two of you together

and jumped to the conclusion
you were having an affair?

-We're not.
-What if he thought you were?

Threatened you,
threatened to tell your church.

Even the scandal of it
would destroy you, wouldn't it?

I know you're desperate
to solve your case, Officer,

but I didn't kill Frank.

I can swear
on the Bible, if you like.

That won't be necessary,
but just stay in town for now.

Well, I'm not going anywhere.

[clearing throat]

I heard that Frank
was having an affair.

How did you hear that?

From Georgie.

Please keep
it to yourself, Father, but yes.

Did Georgie
ever suspect anything?

Never mentioned
a Jackie Baloyi to you?

No, never.

Interesting. Jackie?

I-- I thought that...

her and that chap who worked
with her, they were an item.

Who, Leonard?

He's always singing her praises.

I must've gotten
the wrong end of the stick.

Come.

-How can I help?
-I just came to get some clarity

on part of your statement about
when you found Marius' car.

This one is intense.

It reminds me of Marius' car,
the one you found.

Oh, artwork's my other lens.
A photograph captures a moment,

but a painting captures emotion.

This one is processing
the tragedy that I witnessed.

[Piet] Mm...

And this one?

Eden is burning...
That's quite something.

-That fire was so beautiful.
-Beautiful?

Look, I know a fire
is destructive and deadly,

but it's beautiful,
transformative.

African green pigeon.

That's about 10km
north of Eden, that picture.

-You know your way around.
-Eden is in my blood.

-Do you have any more photos?
-Of birds? Hundreds.

I built my own
darkroom in my basement

so I can work
on my own photographs.

A darkroom?

It's been a while since
I heard about anyone doing that.

Well, living alone,
a man needs a hobby.

Did you take any more pictures

at the crime scene
when Marius died?

If you did,
they could really help us.

I'll have a look at my negatives
and see if I find any.

Is there anything in particular
that you're looking for?

We'd just like to see
whatever you have.

Khaya, grabbing some lunch?

I've been meaning to ask...
How's Maria?

The arrest was a bit of a shock,
but she's alright.

Arrest? Surely you don't think

Maria's involved
in anything serious?

Maria's capable
of everything and anything

she sets her mind to.

Jessie, you're here.

Maria, I can't believe
they arrested you.

Arrested you?

Not for murder, I'm afraid,
despite your best efforts.

Maria, are you okay?
This place is in a state.

And you? Are you fine?

I'm good, honestly. It's just...

It's a bit of a mess,
that's all.

I've decided
to help her start packing

by emptying a few cupboards.

[bell jingling]

[cellphone vibrating]

Hey, Jess.

-Hattie, hi.
-Are you with Maria?

Yes, she's...

We're gonna
work from here today.

Of course.

You'll be okay
with the editorial work?

I've handled it
on my own for several years,

I'm fairly sure
I can manage one more afternoon.

Jessie, what is going on?

You can talk to me, you know.

Oh, um... There is
something I must tell you.

When I was
at the police station,

I saw the interview transcripts

-Klaasen was busy with.
-Mm-hm?

I know who Frank was
having an affair with... Jackie.

Jackie?

-With Frank?
-Mm-hm.

That-- Ooh... [scoffing]

I wonder
how Khaya's feeling right now.

I mean, Georgie.

Poor Georgie.
I don't think I'd like to know

who my partner's
cheating on me with.

Nobody wants to know that.

Jackie? Wow.

She must be
the primary suspect, then?

I'll do a background check,
see what I can find.

[Maria] Mm...

Hm.

[Gideon] Dear Tannie Maria,

you helped me once
and it changed my life.

I need your help again.

You see, I'm in love, Tannie.

But I worry.

Some of my family
aren't all that comfortable.

They tell me
that it doesn't belong here...

Two men loving one another.

They tell me
that stuff is for the city.

So tell me, Tannie,
how can I convince them that...

I'm as natural
as vellies and sunburn?

Please, Tannie.

I know that you'll have a recipe

that can make
things really awesome again.

Sincerely, Just an Oke.

-Jessie?
-Hm?

How about
we get out of here for a bit?

I need to go
see a man about an ostrich.

-[knocking on door]
-Come in.

Khaya, I brought
the chain-of-evidence paperwork

for Marius Rabie.

Thought it would be best
to bring it myself.

Thank you.

About your confession...
You and Frank?

-It's hard to digest.
-I know.

I know it was a shock, but I
wanted to tell you the truth.

We were getting really close,
and I value what we have, Khaya.

So, I wanna be
open and honest with you.

Completely. No secrets.

I told Regardt and Piet
everything I could think of.

There's nothing wrong
about being honest.

So, why don't you
come over tonight

and we can have some wine
and just relax?

[Khaya clears throat]

Some reports
for you to sign off on, sir.

[Khaya] Mm.

Are you ever
going to tell me what's wrong?

-I broke up with Regardt today.
-What?

Oh, Jessie! I'm sorry.
Why? What happened?

I don't wanna
talk about it right now.

Right.

Well, let's talk
about the case, then.

Jaco... Would you say
you know him pretty well?

I mean, do you think
that he may have killed Marius?

The police seem to be taking
him seriously as a suspect.

Have you spoken to him recently?

I can see him stealing some
things, but that's about it.

You're in support group with
him. Has he said anything there?

I actually
haven't been in a while.

I should go tonight.

-Maria?
-Hm?

You're not really
gonna leave, are you?

I don't know, Jessie.
I really don't.

I always imagined
I'd be the one leaving,

then coming back
to tell you all about it.

Thank you so much for informing
us that you're back in town.

Are-- Are there
any updates on the case?

I know that the other...

Frank's mistress
has been identified.

Has she not been arrested?

Well, you'd have to speak
to the detective about that.

But he'll be out shortly.
He's just... busy.

Georgie, I need to say this...

I am profoundly sorry
for the pain that I've caused.

My involvement with Frank...
It was a mistake.

It was a lapse in judgement
which I regret every single day.

I didn't mean to hurt anybody,

especially not you
or your family.

My actions, my secrecy...

they've weighed heavily on me.

And if I could turn back time, I
would do everything differently.

I will pray for you.

For healing. For peace.

But I will pray for me...

That I'm not consumed
with anger and rage...

that I rip
your eyes from your face

and shove them down your throat.

Why has she not been arrested?

Adultery is not against the law.

Oh... [scoffing]

[handbrake engages, engine off]

-[Maria] Hello.
-[Gideon] Hi.

-Are you Gideon?
-Yes.

We've never met,
but my friend Doep says

you have the very best
ostrich in the Karoo.

It's exactly
what I need for a recipe.

-Are you... Tannie Maria?
-Yes.

Wait! Wait there!

Something I said?

Maybe he's getting a newspaper
for you to autograph.

Don't be daft.

Probably wants to correct me
on something I got wrong.

I get a lot of mail like that.

This... this is me.

-[laughing] You?
-Yes.

-The sex cake? And it worked?
-Yes.

-That cake was to die for.
-It changed my life.

-Aw...
-If it hadn't been for you,

my best friend would still be
Jemima over there, but now...

Now I have Nige.

Do you mean Nigel,
the retired pathologist?

Yeah, how do you know Nige?

He helped the police
with Frank and Marius' murders.

Yes, yes. Nige!

Nige, come
and meet Tannie Maria and..

Jessie September,
investigative journalist.

-Hello, lovely to meet you.
-Lovely to meet you too.

I'm so interested
in asking you a few questions.

I'm so curious about forensics.

Let's go inside. I can make you
a cup of tea, Tannie Maria.

-Oh, I don't know--
-Yes, please.

[Nigel] This way.

Thank you so much.

That's it, you're free to go.

Hasn't all that
been processed already?

-Doesn't hurt to check again.
-Suit yourself.

Boss, I need your help
obtaining a warrant.

A warrant? For what?

Leonard. I would like
to take a closer look

at what goes on in his house,
especially that darkroom,

but I need a warrant
and I need backup.

Leonard?
What's the probable cause?

Painting of Marius' car
and the town on fire.

And the tendency
to take pictures of things

other than just birds, like
attendees at a memorial service.

-And a bad feeling.
-Just leave it with me.

[Regardt, softly] Jaco...

One of the best ways
of determining the time of death

is by looking at the potassium

in the vitreous fluid
in the eye.

[Jessie] Oh?

You must have a very strong
stomach to do that kind of work.

Well, that's why I'm a vet now.

I don't mind helping out
every now and then,

but doing that all day,
every day? It was just too sad.

And putting your hands inside
cows and horses, that's happier?

[chuckling] Much happier.

Especially if I get to help
foals and calves into the world.

I can't help
thinking about Marius' death.

I believe his face turning black

was a dead giveaway
of him being poisoned.

Did you spot that immediately?

That was spotted
before I even got there.

It was Leonard
who pointed it out.

It still seems odd that it was
only so close to the surface.

But I noted
all of that in my report.

Here you go, Tannie.

I hope whoever that recipe
is for, it really helps.

Thank you, I hope so too.

[Leonard] I put
all my photographs

of the African green pigeon
for you in a box upstairs.

Kasin...

Leonard, what is this?

Why do you
have so many pictures of Jackie?

Those are reference pictures
of a series of portraits

that I'm planning to do.

Jackie, she's such an
inspiration, you know.

-My muse.
-[Piet] Reference pictures?

Leonard, this looks more
like surveillance photos.

[Klaasen] These are way beyond
reference photos, Leonard.

That's harassment.
There are whole TikTok accounts

warning others
about people like you.

[Leonard] This is art.
This is... This is what I do.

I capture life as it is.

Unposed, natural.

I promise you,
it's nothing sinister.

We'll take these photos

and we'll search
the house for any more.

[Maria] Dear Just an Oke...

we are going
to put together something

that is 100% made in the Karoo.

The best ostrich
there is, and something

that's maybe a little bit
unusual around these parts.

But wouldn't life be boring

if we all cooked
our ostrich the same way?

Mm...

You're going to need to boil
your vinegar, white wine,

water, spring onion
and tarragon mixture.

Then let it simmer and reduce.

This sauce is one that
might not be obvious at first...

but it grows on you.

Put the bowl in a pot
of simmering water to heat.

Add some egg yolks.

Not too much heat,
and there's no need to rush.

It's the same
when you tell people

things they might
not expect to hear.

Piet, is everything okay?

I need to talk to you
about something important.

[Maria] Give them time.

-Are they all of me?
-Yes.

Seems Leonard has been observing
you for quite some time.

[Maria] If you don't want
your sauce to split...

Oh...

Oh, well.

You be careful, Jackie. We
don't yet know the full extent

of his fascination with you.

[Maria] But here's
a little secret...

Even if things
don't go the way you planned,

it's possible to save them.

You can bring a sauce back
with just a little persuasion.

[mom] Mm...

Nice.

[Maria] And you can convince
your family you're right

with a little persuasion too.

Nigel's been working
very hard lately.

-I'm very proud of him.
-And so you should be.

He's a smart man.

[Maria] I'm certain of it.

Your sauce is nearly there now.

So, add some butter.
Watch how it really transforms

into something magical
at the last minute.

Mm...

-[mom] The sauce, yes.
-The sauce...

[Maria] Having put all that time
and effort into the sauce

the steaks are just
a quick sear on the hot griddle.

Two delicious stars of the show,
unmistakeably Karoo.

It feels a wee bit
like a last supper.

Doesn't it, Morag?

Uh, before we eat...

I just-- I just wanna...

I just wanna say...

Nigel is moving in with me.

Here.

Does this mean we get...

family discount
during lambing season?

-[scattered chuckles]
-Absolutely.

[all laughing]

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

-[Piet] Khaya...
-Yeah?

I see you've got a new set of
tyres. That's a recent change.

I had to replace them.
Got slashed one night.

Was it the same night
this photo was taken?

-Where did you get this?
-Leonard.

Zindzi...

You okay, baby?

Let's talk tomorrow.

Mama loves you so much.

[Mrs Snyman] I found all this
in Jakkie's room.

Regardt, what's all that?

This is Marius' stuff, Ma.

He kept lying to my face.

-Regardt!
-Ma...

Regardt, you can't go
to the police.

You have to promise me.

Deal with this yourself
and help your brother.

I can't make that promise, Ma.

If Jaco's involved in this
stuff, I can't just cover it up.

It's what your pa would've done.

No, it's not, Ma.
Dad was a good cop.

Your pa knew
when to turn a blind eye.

-Regardt!
-[door opening]

-[quadbike starting]
-Regardt, please don't do this!

[Ricus] Jaco, anything you want
to say before you leave us?

It's a safe space.

Uh...

I've made mistakes. Big ones.

I've hurt
the people I care about.

I've lied, I've stolen...

Even from my own brother.

Something really valuable.

And now
I don't know how to fix it.

Admitting our mistakes
is the first step.

It's about facing them,
not running away.

I thought my till was short R50
when you came past last week.

[Ricus] Not now, Lucille.

[clicking tongue]

I want to make things right,

I'm just scared
that it's too late.

[Ricus] We all know what it's
like to mess something up badly.

To feel like we're
unworthy of forgiveness.

[Maria] Yes.

We do.

It was great seeing you
again tonight. I've missed you.

Oh, I'm... I'm sorry.

I haven't felt very... groupy.

That's nothing
to be sorry about.

You can visit me even if
you don't feel like group.

Oh, I wouldn't
want to bother you.

Khaya told me
you'd been arrested.

You wanna sit a bit longer
and catch me up?

Hm?

Sure.

-[Ms September yawning]
-Tough night tonight?

Mm, difficult childbirth,
but all healthy in the end.

I waited until baby was out.

I didn't want to leave
Christine alone to handle that.

-That's kind of you, Ma.
-It's what we do, hey?

Ma, I need to apologise.

I've been very hard on you
about Craig, and I'm sorry.

I understand, Jessie,

and I do appreciate
you looking out for me.

But I also
just want to be happy, Jess.

Like Regardt
makes you happy, hm?

Actually, I broke up with him.

What? Why?

Honestly,
the more I think about it...

He wants to carry on living
the exact life he has now.

He wants to stay in his parents'
house and be a cop like his dad.

And I don't know
if I'll stay in Eden at all.

I just feel like I'll end up
hurting him really badly,

and he doesn't deserve that.

Well, you know...

we all get hurt, Jess.
That's part of loving.

Risking being hurt.

-But that sucks, Ma.
-Yes.

Yes, it does.

It's so peaceful here,
it would almost fool you.

-Yeah, that's the trick.
-[chuckling]

My father always told me
to be like a duck.

Keep calm on the surface,
and paddle like hell underneath.

-Sounds like a wise man.
-Oh...

Clever, definitely.

Intelligent, yes.
I'm not so sure about wise.

Why are you here?

In the Karoo.

Because I didn't like
where I was before.

[chuckling]

Good answer.

So many come here.

We blow into town
like tumbleweed, but...

Can tumbleweed
ever really belong to a place?

Does it have a home.

You wanna belong somewhere?

How about right here?

It would be so beautiful, Maria.

Um, I'm sorry...

No problem.

The offer will always be there.

There's something else, though,
I need to tell you, about Jaco.

Regardt's Jaco? What about him?

I was with Jaco.

Not just together,
but... together.

And Regardt doesn't know.

-Oh...
-I've betrayed Regardt, Ma,

and I don't know how to face it.

Jessie, we all
make mistakes, my love.

This is gonna tear
them apart, their whole family.

And what if Regardt hates me?

Regardt, he may be hurt, yes.

But the truth
is better than a hidden lie.

No matter how painful.

[Regardt] Jaco,
you have to come with me.

I don't have
a choice anymore, man.

Mom found Marius' things.

There's something
I need to tell you.

-No. What?
-Reg, please...

-What? Say it!
-Please.

The night of the fire, I was...

I was stealing from people.

Different houses...

My bag was getting heavy,

so I dropped it
outside the guesthouse.

I climbed the wall
to see what they had, and--

No. Just stop, Jaco!

-Give your confession to Piet.
-No, wait!

What I saw, was Frank.

Face down, in the swimming pool.

I tried
giving him mouth-to-mouth,

just like you showed me.

Come on, Frank! [straining]

But...

I realised
I was putting my mouth

over the mouth of a dead man.

[distant sirens wailing]

I wanted to be sick.

He was so cold,
and like something alien, and..

not a real human being anymore.
[sobbing softly]

I kept thinking of you and Dad.

You finding Dad.

I'm so fucking sorry
that happened to you.

You kept me from seeing him,
you wanted to save me from that.

And I never said thank you.

[Regardt] Jaco Snyman,
you're under arrest

for being in possession
of stolen property.

You don't have to say anything,

but anything you do say
can and will be used against you

in a court of law.
