Why couldn't I be on a dating app? Do I not deserve love?

No, you do deserve love.

Oh! A match!

No! I don't match with anyone! Why am I matching with someone?

Is that him? He's a lot better-looking than his photos.

Mackenzie? That is I!

There you go.

She does that to me all the time.

Come on. Good girl.

You are the only one that I need.

SINGING

LAUGHTER

CHATTER

There he is! Enjoy your stay in beautiful Dolphin Cove.

Alfie! Get here!

Oh, careful! Bit burnt! Ooh, after two days?!

Classic Englishman. Constable Soppy,

you're under arrest for being a div.

Ah, it's Detective Senior Constable, thank you.

And impersonating a police officer is a crime.

So is public nudity.

Are you going to charge yourself for that?

That was, er... That was over 15 years ago,

and well beyond the statute of limitations.

How are you, Liv?

Sick of this pair already.

Oh, come on!

HE SIGHS

Look at this pool. Should we jump in?

Well, they do say that going for a swim

after a long journey does help jet lag.

Are you joking?! I've got seven days off the leash.

Let's dump these bags and hit the pub!

Does she look familiar to you?

No.

Just round here, please, madam.

Three beers and a G&T.

So you were all here 15 years ago?

On this exact spot.

The start of your love affair with Dolphin Cove, Col?

How could we compete?

This place has everything, and Louth has...

Er, the best fish-and-chip shop in the whole of Lincolnshire?

It's her family's. Honestly, magic.

Hey, where have you been? We've been waiting ages.

Air-con not working in my room, so they moved me.

Still, things are looking up!

Er, Alfie, this is, er...

This is Daisy and this is Glenn.

The famous Glenn.

So what have you got planned while you're here?

Surfing. What else?

Oh, you should get him to take you out. He's pretty good.

Soppy? Unlikely.

Er, 6am tomorrow morning, I'll show you.

Ooh!

Finally, my best mates here,

together for the first time since...?

His wedding.

That long? Yeah!

Have you, um... Have you found the rings yet?

Argh! I lost them for, like, five minutes, tops.

All I'm saying is, I wouldn't have lost the rings.

Well, you'll finally get your chance

to be best man with Glenn's wedding, won't you?

Got a few things to iron out there.

A bit behind.

Um, to Dolphin Cove!

Yeah! Dolphin Cove, again! Cheers!

I just miss the Martin Gritton and Michael Reddy days,

do you know what I mean?

Like, that is how you guarantee Grimsby Town 30 goals a season.

Oh, it's brilliant having you here, mate. It really is.

Hello. Oh! DRINK SPILLS

Whoa, Liv! Come on!

Sorry!

LAUGHTER

Home time. Home time.

Quitters! Whatever.

But, Col, it was so ugly.

Hey!

I wore that scarf all the way through to sixth form.

In fact, I think I've still got it somewhere.

Well, for some reason, I can't see you needing it in Dolphin Cove.

Mm.

Oh...! I could...

Ow!

Ow, what are you doing? I just...

Just unhook it already! Stop still.

Um...

You should get some sleep.

Are you really going home?

I am really going home.

TAP RUNS

But not before I've delivered a lecture

on the importance of hydration in hangover prevention.

And marvelled at the surprising softness of this, er...

SHE SNORES ..robe.

And for the record,

I only wore that ugly scarf because you once told me...

..you liked it.

Soppy!

See you at six for our surf, yeah? Ambitious!

Hi, Trev. G'day, Col.

HE GIGGLES

He's not coming in, is he?

No.

All right, mate?

CHUCKLING Oh.

Shambles.

HE HUMS

Whoa!

HE YAWNS LOUDLY

HE LAUGHS

HE GROANS

Alfie!

Mate, some of us are trying to sleep!

Oh!

Brilliant.

Oh, wrong door.

ROHAN LAUGHS

Oi!

Surf's up, mate. We're leaving in five.

Come on.

HE GROANS

Olivia! Rohan!

Hey, what are you yelling about?

Who the hell is that? Oh, look closely.

No, it can't be her.

We haven't seen her in all those years.

And now she's dead on my bathroom floor.

You got here fast.

Er, the deceased is a female in her 50s.

No ID. We just knew her as Ivy.

You knew her? Er, we all did.

Me and my friends from home.

Oh, that's right, they're here, aren't they?

Arrived yesterday, and we went out last night.

Cool! How did you know Ivy?

Ivy was our surf instructor.

She took us out when we were backpackers,

but that was 15 years ago. Right.

So what was she doing here? I don't know.

You didn't meet up with her last night? No. Oh.

I know. Baffled.

She was found this morning by Alfie Grove,

one of my mates, in his room.

Alfie says that he passed out against his door

and didn't manage to get in until 6am this morning.

Really? He slept out there all night?

Not out of character, if I'm honest.

I got here just after he discovered the body.

We were supposed to go surfing.

Ah. I was here when they checked in yesterday, and then we went to the Surf Club.

And then, at the end of the night,

I walked my friend, Olivia, back to her room.

Right. What time did you leave last night?

Oh, Colin.

Tell me you left.

Of course I left!

I was only here a few minutes.

I put her to bed and I got a cab with Trev around one.

Hmm.

Pool of blood on the carpet.

Looking at a head injury.

Her arm's in a cast.

And there's this.

Looks like someone had it in for her.

OK. Time of death?

Five or six hours ago would be my estimate at this stage.

That's a lot of cash.

OK.

Killer moved the body?

Why?

Huh.

Chocolates, snacks, soft drinks.

No booze.

How did the victim get in if this isn't her room?

Could have been invited in? Maybe.

Yep. One keycard,

Er...

The second keycard.

Colin!

Boss.

Can I have a chat to you outside?

Didn't realise you'd be down here this morning.

Yeah, well, I've got a murder to solve,

and I'm one detective down because you are on five days' leave.

Well, the thing is, I'm, er... I'm already here!

Yeah, well, there's a bit of a conflict, potentially.

I mean, aren't these friends of yours?

Yeah, but they didn't have anything to do with it.

Have you established that?

Because there was only one other room occupied,

so there's not many potentials.

They couldn't have. I've known 'em since I was a kid.

Yeah, you see, that is my problem.

I'm professional.

I can put my friendship aside and...investigate.

Just do not let me down, Colin.

And put some pants on.

Let's go talk to your friends.

Nothing to do with me. Didn't even go in there.

You found her, though, didn't you?

Yeah. She was definitely dead.

What time was that?

Six. We were meeting Soppy for a surf.

Sorry, "Soppy"?

Did you have a few drinks in your room

before you left last night? No.

Well, there's snacks and soft drinks in your minibar,

but no alcohol. I didn't touch it.

OK, so, a few drinks at the Surf Club, then what?

A few beers. Caught up. Kicked out at last drinks.

I remember getting back, and I guess, falling asleep.

Would have been around...1am?

And then you two came back soon after?

Yeah, well, I went to bed.

Alfie didn't. Found him collapsed against the door.

Couldn't get my key to work.

And you slept against the door all night?

Bit of a habit of mine when I've had a few.

It's true.

Before. After.

Doesn't move a muscle.

It's incredible.

And no-one came in or out of your room in that time?

Well, I was leaning up against the door.

If it had opened, I would have cracked me head on the floor.

Even I can't sleep through that.

And then you recognised the victim after 15 years?

I'll never forget her.

She was so cool. She was just this amazing surfer

out there every morning. And none of you had seen her

before you found her body this morning?

So you have no idea at all

what she was doing at this motel in Alfie's room?

VACUUM CLEANER WHIRS

I spoke to the staff. None of them know who Ivy is.

No-one by that name checked in.

We're going to go chase down her surf hire place.

Here. See if these keys help you.

Only other guests are a family of three

staying in the room next door.

They were up most of the night trying to put their baby to sleep.

Did they see anything? No. Their curtains were drawn.

Thin curtains, according to the father.

And the baby woke up every time the security light came on.

Yeah, he reckoned there was a flurry of lights

just before one.

Well, everyone coming home?

That's about it.

Oh, we checked the CCTV footage in the reception.

You can't see the rooms,

but you can see a light in the distance.

It didn't come on again.

OK.

That fits with what your friends told us.

Alfie effectively locked the door when he fell asleep against it.

So Ivy was already in the room, dead,

when we came back from the Surf Club.

Wait, hang on!

The baby woke up again at 3am.

They heard someone dragging something

along the floor next door.

No, that's wrong.

No, Ivy was dead by then. She couldn't have been moving.

They were sure. So...

..it's the killer moving the body.

Right? But there was no way in or out

with Alfie blocking the door at 1am,

and then he goes in at 6am to discover a body,

but no killer, so...

..how did the killer escape through a locked door?

These only open an inch. Mmm. No-one's escaping through there.

You know...

..this was supposed to be a special time.

I don't get to see my friends that often.

Two keycards...

Big trip for them. Rohan's got kids.

Mm, and now they're suspects in a murder.

Well, not just them.

Well, no-one else in this motel knew Ivy 15 years ago.

One card for Alfie.

What could their motives possibly be?

Good question!

And then, his spare...

What are you looking for?

This.

The third keycard.

Why would Alfie have three keys?

He wouldn't.

Hey, how's the wedding prep going?

Meeting the celebrant tomorrow.

Oh... Eh? Didn't you do that last week?

I, er... I forgot.

Bit of a shared calendar issue. Communication breakdown.

About that chat about best man last night.

Col, don't worry about it.

I promise you, I didn't put them up to it.

It's fine. And I know you've got friends

you've known longer than me. I mean, Rick, Jacko...

Whoever you decide to go for, you know, go for it.

You know, it's your wedding. This is a master key.

And it was under the bed. Why?

Er, maybe the killer used it to get in.

Or the victim?

One of those.

And all the minibars are stocked with alcohol,

except Alfie's.

Anything?

Apart from the obvious head wound, not yet.

I'll get all this back to the lab and let you know

if anything jumps out.

Hey, and don't forget the celebrant.

Last box to tick before they can get married.

You should set a reminder in your phone.

Good advice. Cheers.

You're welcome.

I'll call you.

Oh, "Shell Yeah"!

I reckon I'd read the reviews before booking a lesson.

Ah, so this must be Ivy's surf hire gear.

Car keys.

What do you reckon? Yeah.

First aid kit. She was prepared.

Hmm.

Got clothes... Hmm.

..sneakers.

And...

She was living in her car.

Alfie Grove, room eight.

Olivia Hattle, room nine.

Rohan Khatri, room ten.

There were no staff at the motel overnight,

so these are the people we are looking at

who had potential access to the victim.

All of them...

..old friends of Colin's.

Yeah, grew up on the same street.

Pretty much family.

All of them have a prior relationship to the victim.

So, somehow, Ivy ends up dead in Alfie's bathroom.

A threatening note left at the scene.

"It ends here."

Alfie asleep against the door the entire time,

so we don't know how the killer escaped through a door

that was essentially locked,

and we know very little about our victim.

So, Felix, enlighten us.

Er, Ivy Perry. We found her car.

A few bills in it, in her name.

A toothbrush, which suggests she's been living in it, too.

What ends here?

Ivy Sandra Perry...

..no fixed address. For ages.

This is weird.

Hmm. Her most recent chat, it's just a bunch of numbers.

Who's it from?

It just says "Dumpling."

What are the numbers?

14. 9. 11.

Anything over 15? No.

Is the most recent number 8?

How'd you know?

There's 15 rooms at the motel.

Someone was texting her room numbers.

Someone told her to be there.

The killer?

Let's find out what Ivy Perry was up to before she died.

Ivy. Yeah.

She was here last night.

What? When? What, you didn't see her?

No.

She had an argument with your mate, Rohan.

They were really going at it.

What about? I don't know.

I couldn't hear. And then, I had to get her chucked out. Er, why?

She was dealing.

How did you know that?

Cash in her pocket and a buyer who was still

under the influence when we spoke to him this morning.

Maybe he's sobered up by now.

Why not tell us what the argument with Ivy was all about?

Obviously because it would make him look guilty.

Right, Rohan?

I'm on holiday! Mate, cocaine?

I haven't had a week to myself since the kids were born.

And you bought it from Ivy? Yeah.

And it was less than I paid for. Not a big deal.

I'm not going to kill her over it.

Mm-hm. How did Ivy feel about all of this?

Angry enough to fight with you about it?

Did she follow you back here? No.

I didn't see her again for the rest of the night.

I swear, I had nothing to do with this.

MOBILE PHONE RINGS

Felix?

Mate, what are you doing?

It's just a bit of gear.

It's possession!

It's an offence!

HE SIGHS

We're going to have to charge you. Col!

I'm a solicitor!

I'll lose my practising certificate.

This will end my career.

I've got two kids. I've got a mortgage.

How long have we known each other, mate?

Please, just help me out.

Holly Perry.

Any relation to Ivy? I don't know for sure,

but she was the one texting Ivy the numbers.

And guess where she works.

The Dolphin Cove Motel.

Holly Perry, how are you related to Ivy?

She was my mum.

So sorry.

Did you give her a master key?

I...

She was sleeping in her car,

so I was just trying to help her out a bit.

So how did it work?

You'd text her the number of a vacant room.

She had the master key.

We've read her messages. "Dumpling"

It's quite sweet.

I'd check the bookings.

She'd come in late and leave early the next day.

Mm-hm.

Then you'd clean her room first.

Remove all evidence of her stay.

It wasn't hurting anyone.

Holly, last night, you sent her to a room that wasn't free.

It was free.

Alfie's broken air-conditioner.

Hey, where have you been? We've been waiting ages!

Air-con not working in my room.

What, he wasn't meant to be in room eight?

They moved him at the last minute.

She liked to drink, your mum?

You cleared out room eight's minibar.

She needed help to stay on the straight and narrow.

An addict, sleeping in her car,

leaning on you to risk your job for free accommodation.

She's the only family I had.

I would have done anything for her.

Nothing on her phone.

No bank accounts.

She was basically living off the grid, so...

Oh, it's old-school, but I like it.

It's a long shot,

but maybe someone has some information

about what she's been up to.

You know, since the crime was so targeted.

Hey, you're really getting into

this detective stuff, aren't you?

I'm trying. Hmm. So, what's the plan?

Are you going to undermine Colin to the boss,

get him sent back to England,

and then you move in on his job?

No! Oh.

I was thinking of going for my Senior Constable promotion,

and then, eventually, applying

to sit the exam for detective training.

Oh, yeah, well, that'll work too.

Good on you, Felix. Thanks.

Just let me know if you need any help.

With detective training?

Honey, I taught Year 10 girls.

Understanding what goes on in their heads

is elite-level investigative work.

Seriously!

We know she was bludgeoned.

Toxicology shows high blood alcohol content.

No other drugs were found in her system.

But have a look at this.

Her arm wasn't broken!

There's no evidence of a fracture or a hairline break.

No sign of previous healing, either.

So this was just for show?

Why?

Pity?

Insurance, maybe?

PHONE RINGS Oh. Er...

Er, what have you got?

Glenn, don't forget the celebrant.

I won't forget the celebrant.

And then no turning back.

I don't want to turn back.

COLIN SIGHS

That was Felix. Mm-hm?

Guess who got hit by a car last week?

So Ivy was running a scam.

Someone backs into her in the car park.

Or they think they do. Uh-huh...

She turns up the next day, her arm in a cast and...

asks for money.

Felix said she was targeting backpackers.

I mean, you'd pay, too, if you were on a tourist visa.

You don't want to get mixed up with the police.

Maybe she scammed the wrong person

and they decided to finally stop her.

"It ends here." Mm.

Oh, hey, Colin! COLIN CHUCKLES

Mack.

I didn't expect you to be here.

Ah, no...

I... I didn't expect me to be here either.

Why am I here? What am I doing here?

Oh, no, she's not part of it. It's the...

It's the cake tasting for the wedding. Right. No.

Definitely not part of this.

No, you should stay. Or definitely shouldn't!

No, it's...it's fine.

You know, I'd like your opinion.

There you go. All right, so we have red velvet,

vanilla, fruitcake

a request from the mother of the groom.

It's a classic.

Scorecards are here.

I want them ranked in order.

OK?

Tick that off, and I just have the celebrant on my big jobs list.

Mmm!

Fruitcake. Fruitcake.

Mmm! Mm-hm.

How long have you had a thing for Olivia?

Hmm?

Your cologne. HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

Usually, it's quite aquamarine

but now, suddenly, it's leather and ylang-ylang.

Firstly, I'm just... trying something new.

And, I guess, years.

When we were out here backpacking,

I thought something might happen.

Why didn't it?

She's always had a thing for Alfie, I reckon.

And then we went back home and...

..off to uni. Well, the lads did.

Not Olivia?

No, she got in, then changed her mind.

Decided to stay in Louth and look after the family shop.

She was smarter than all of us.

I never understood it.

Can I ask? Mm?

"Soppy"?

I used to sweat.

A lot.

In school, at PE, the...

..rugby ball slipped through me hands and, er...

..they never let me forget it.

You don't like it.

It's just banter.

It's what mates do.

Aren't mates supposed to be, you know, nice?

Ooh!

You're learning!

You know...

..I thought it'd be fun, having them out here,

but, er...

Someone got murdered.

But...even before that.

I don't know, just...

They seem different.

Our cells are constantly regenerating.

Skin, bone, bits of brain.

It takes about seven years

for the body to almost entirely replace itself.

OK.

Since you last saw your friends, Colin,

you have literally become a different person.

Mm.

No, no!

Fruitcake, no.

No!

I've brushed my teeth four times and I can still taste it.

Holly's shift starts in five minutes.

Let's see if she knows who else her mum might have scammed.

Why did you come back?! Hey, hey, hey!

Whoa, whoa! Was it worth it?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Holly! Holly! Holly! Stop! Whoa! Stop! Stop!

Stop! Stop, you're OK. OK? Stop.

He shouldn't have come back.

Why would Holly be that angry with you, hmm?

Soppy, come on!

Just answer the question, please.

We had a thing back then,

Holly and me.

And it ended...badly.

Is that why we cut short our trip?

How did none of us know about this?

Holly didn't want her mum to find out,

so we kept the whole thing a secret.

Ivy was out for blood when she found out.

15 years ago, Holly was 18.

She's an adult, can make her own decisions.

Why would her mum take it so badly?

Holly ended up pregnant.

Ivy basically attacked me at the beach one morning.

Said she wanted $20,000, and then I could walk away.

Like a lump-sum child support payment.

And you paid it?

Dad sent the money.

And I never heard from Holly or her mum again.

Well, until...

Oh, that's why you were so late to the Surf Club.

You weren't just changing rooms.

Did you confront her?

INAUDIBLE

What did she say?

There was no baby, was there?

20 grand for a baby that never even existed!

What?! I can't believe it, mate!

She scammed you.

You had a tumultuous history with your mother.

SIGHS

All Mum had to do was stop drinking.

But, no, instead, every dollar that came in

just went out again.

So, when I had a thing with Alfie,

she saw a way of making money out of it.

And Alfie coming back, it brought all that up.

That was found near your mother's body.

"It ends here." Sums up how you feel.

I didn't kill her.

You think Alfie did? Well...

..he got moved to the room.

He found her there, OK?

He's got good reason.

Holly, so do you.

Motive and access.

I came to work and she was dead in one of the rooms.

And, yeah, she had her problems,

but she's my mother.

I loved her, OK?

How are you going on that possession case on Rohan Khatri?

Ah, I'm nearly done with the paperwork.

Er, but, boss...

..I can't find the drugs.

What do you mean?

Er, they were in the storeroom last night,

but this morning...

Right, who signed them out?

I did.

I weighed them again just to make absolutely sure.

We need this to be watertight.

I'll put 'em back.

And I want to see the paperwork for Rohan's possession charge

before the end of the day. Copy that, boss.

When we were 13,

someone pinched 20 quid from the till at Olivia's shop.

Someone.

Alfie.

Suddenly, he had £20.

He was bang to rights.

He denied it then, he'd deny it to this day.

Colin...

..do you think Alfie could have done this?

He's one of my best mates.

But the thing about Alfie is that...

..he always gets away with it.

How drunk was he at the Surf Club?

He fell asleep against his motel room door.

And the light would have come on if anyone opened it.

Plus Felix would have seen it on the CCTV.

And the baby would have woken up.

And there's no way he could have rearranged himself

into exactly the same position.

Or could he?

OK. You've made it night-time.

We need to make sure that door was locked

as we think it was locked.

It needs to be watertight.

OK, I just don't have that long.

OK.

You got fruitcake taken off the list.

I feel I owe you one.

CHUCKLES

Mm.

OK. Er, we assumed...

Alfie couldn't get in.

Supposedly, he was asleep against his door

in the same position the whole night.

So, if he moves, the light goes on,

which we know it didn't, so...

Mm.

Just...

OK.

All set?

Mm-hm. OK.

So...

All right.

Wait.

LIGHT CLICKS OK.

Light's off.

See if you can open the door, OK?

Got to go slowly...

Slow... OK. No.

Start again? All right.

OK. Wait....

Don't...move.

I'm not moving. Oh.

OK. Try again. Slowly.

LIGHT CLICKS

Mm. It's impossible, right? Mm.

I need to wash my hands.

Thank you.

It seemed like Alfie was drinking quite heavily,

but could you say exactly how much he drunk?

Oh, Colin, it was busy.

I served you.

I don't know what happened after that.

All I can tell you is that the boys were on the beers

and Olivia was on what she's drinking now, G&Ts.

What, she's here now?

DOOR CLOSES

OK, I'm the killer.

I kill Ivy in the room, and then I bring her in here.

Why?

Maybe you killed her in here.

Uh-huh.

But then, why is there blood out there?

Why is the hammer on the bed? Why write "It ends here"?

It's like the...

..killer was setting a scene, but...

..what did they want us to see?

I'll have to leave that with you. I've really go to go.

Oh, you are kidding!

Oh, just put it back in.

I can't put it back in. The spinner's gone on the other side.

What do you mean? You can't open it?

No, I can't open it because you closed the door.

Well, I didn't know you'd just yank it out!

Oh, I just yanked it, did I? Yeah, you did!

You yanked it because it's not in the door any more, is it?!

MOBILE RINGS

Hey.

No, no. I'm just running a few minutes late,

I haven't forgotten.

Yeah.

No, I know, um...

I'll be there, I promise.

OK. I love you, too.

He'll go back to his nine-to-five and pretend like this never happened.

Did you ever find out why our trip was cut short last time?

Alfie just wanted to get to the Barrier Reef, didn't he?

He had a thing with Ivy's daughter, Holly.

What happened?

Come on, it was years ago.

Surely you can give me a hint?

Holly told him she was pregnant.

And she wasn't?

Ivy pressured him into giving her 20 grand.

It was all a lie.

I had no idea. Me neither.

All right, Jude?

You've made quite a nice life for yourself here, haven't you?

It's impressive. And all I did was buy a ticket.

But you still think about coming home, don't you?

Er... Mm?

I know you've kept items of clothing that I like.

Like your old scarf.

Here's an idea.

You could...

..come here? Maybe.

If there's a good reason.

MOBILE RINGS

Felix? Alfie Grove lied.

He said his dad gave him 20 grand to pay off Ivy,

but the money didn't come from his dad's account.

Well, where'd it come from?

Everything OK?

You gave him the money.

It all makes sense.

You were supposed to go to uni, then suddenly you don't,

because you didn't have the money.

Because you'd given it to Alfie to pay Ivy off.

No, I didn't know what it was for.

He said it was an emergency. Why?

Why would you do that?

Because you've always had a thing for Alfie, haven't you?

CHUCKLES SADLY

I'm sorry. Hey.

Why apologise to me?

What kind of place are they running here?

There's no emergency alarm.

No staff around. Glenn...

Colin and Mum are going straight to voicemail.

Glenn! Glenn.

Maybe you should call Daisy back.

Any other motel would have a phone in here.

In a bathroom? What if I was having a heart attack?

You're not having a heart attack, OK?

You're feeling...claustrophobic.

I'm not feeling claustrophobic.

I'm just very conscious that this 2 x 2.5-metre room

only contains ten cubic metres of air,

and with an average human respiratory volume

of about six litres a minute, maybe 12 for the two of us,

maybe a little less, because you're small...

Let's say 11. OK, Glenn! Glenn, look at me.

Look at me, OK? We're not going to run out of air, OK?

We're not going to run out of air.

No, um. OK.

All right, hey, let's, um...

Let's... Let's get on the floor.

Let's sit on the floor. Let's get down here, OK?

Yeah.

Deep breaths. You're going to concentrate on something else.

I can't concentrate on something else.

OK. All right, um...

OK.

26.

37.

14.

8.

93.

Go.

That's 85 plus 93.

178. Mm-hm.

6 by 8 in one bracket,

minus 12,

plus 19,

plus 6 in the other. Go.

That's 48, take 37.

11.

Square root of 95...

I will accept an estimate.

..er, times the answer to the last one.

Square root of 100 is 10.

Of 81 is 9.

95 is in between.

I'm gonna say 9.7.

Times 11, times 10...

...is 97...

plus 9.7.

106.7.

Do you have anything harder?

Hello! Hello?

Mackenzie? Glenn?

Yeah, we're in here.

Put the knob back in the door.

Oh, yeah.

Oh...

Um, the money Alfie got to pay off Ivy

it didn't come from his dad.

It came from Olivia.

Huh.

There's no robe in here.

Everything all right?

Yeah.

Fine.

There was no robe in there.

But there is a robe in here.

There always was.

Er... What if we've been looking at this...

wrong, huh?

We...assumed that what happened is what it looked like.

That someone killed Ivy in Alfie's room.

Isn't that what happened?

What if it was...

..the exact opposite?

We've been looking in the wrong places.

The wrong questions,

the wrong motives, the wrong...

Er, the night of the murder, what were you all drinking?

Well, we've had the same drinks order

for as long as I can remember.

Er, Olivia was on the G&Ts

and we were on the beers.

Oh, no.

"It ends here."

It certainly ended for Ivy Perry.

Bludgeoned in room eight of the Dolphin Cove Motel.

A room notable for its working air-conditioning,

empty minibar and bright security light.

Ivy was murdered by a killer who somehow

escaped through a door that was essentially locked

by Alfie asleep against the other side.

Why was she killed, huh?

Well, plenty of people had reason.

She was dodgy in her drug deals.

She frittered away her money,

exploiting her daughter in scams.

One scam, 15 years ago,

netted her $20,000 from Alfie.

She was murdered in your room, Alfie. Mm.

Was it revenge?

No.

Well, it was revenge.

But not on Ivy. And, no, not by Alfie.

Alfie wasn't the killer

and Ivy wasn't the intended victim.

Was she, Olivia?

What?

What are you asking me for?

Alfie wasn't the only person that learnt something that night.

You learned that the 20 grand that you gave him

wasn't for an emergency at all.

It was for that baby that didn't exist.

20 grand for a baby that never even existed!

What?! I can't believe it, mate!

Mate... I can't believe it.

So, yes, it was revenge, but not on Ivy.

On the friend that made you give him that money.

And it cost you everything.

University.

The life you wanted.

So you decided, Alfie, he was no friend at all.

And you decided to kill him.

You saw me, Col.

I was so drunk, I couldn't even stand up straight.

You'd stopped drinking.

You threw your gin and tonics in the garden.

Faked being drunk.

You knew I'd walk you home, like I always did.

Easy alibi.

Asleep in your room.

Except you weren't asleep.

Cos you remembered what I'd told you about my ugly scarf.

I only wore that ugly scarf because you once told me...

..you liked it.

But I told you that after you started snoring.

You mentioned it at the Surf Club.

I know you've kept items of clothing that I liked.

How would I even get in? Alfie's spare keycard.

Which you lifted when you spilled your drink on his wallet.

It is beautiful having you here, mate.

Oi-oi!

ALL EXCLAIM

You waited in his room until he came through the door

and then you pounced.

Except it wasn't Alfie.

It was Ivy, using her master key to get into a room

that Holly had told her would be empty.

And that is when Alfie did come home.

HE YAWNS

You did everything you could in the moment

to stop from being discovered,

but then Alfie fell asleep against the door,

trapping you in.

And we...we kept asking why?

Why did the killer move the body?

Why was the hammer placed on the bed in full sight,

for everyone to see?

Why was the note near the body?

It was all... It was so deliberate.

Because it was deliberate,

starting with making Ivy look like the intended victim,

so no-one would suspect that she was murdered by accident.

And then you moved the body

into the bathroom, damaging the door handle

along the way.

And then you put the hammer on the bed

so that when Alfie eventually did wake up

and walk in the door, he would see the hammer

and his attention would be drawn to the bathroom...

..where he wouldn't be able to see you escape.

You had seconds before Alfie raised the alarm.

Just enough time

to get into your room, and then emerge.

In Alfie's robe,

covering your blood-stained clothes from the night before.

And then you joined Rohan and Alfie in discovering Ivy.

Your victim.

No, it can't be her. No, you know it is.

You can't prove any of this.

Colin, she can't prove any of that. You have to tell her.

I wouldn't do anything like this. You know that.

Never made it to the wash.

If you look closely, you'll see the tiniest stain of blood.

Right here.

Ivy's.

And a few strands of hair.

We've sent them to Forensics and, er...

they've confirmed they're yours.

Your plan...

..it failed tragically.

But your cover-up...

..almost worked.

How could you?

We grew up next door to each other.

We've been friends for 30 years.

You don't have any friends!

Friends, they care about each other.

You never even said thank you!

Olivia Hattle...

..you're under arrest for the murder of Ivy Perry.

Colin...

Colin, stop, please.

You don't have to say or do anything,

but anything you do or say may be used as evidence against you.

Colin, please. This way.

Thought I was taking three of youse.

HE SIGHS

Just the two, Trev.

Okey dokey.

See you, Soppy.

Don't call me that.

I've...

I've never liked it.

I'll see you back here for your hearing.

Bye, then. Yeah.

HE CLEARS THROAT

Give us a shout when you're next home.

I am home.

That's what they said!

Hey, Col! Over here.

Oh! Did your friends get off OK?

Yeah...

Probably not the holiday they were expecting.

Wouldn't have thought so, no.

Hmm.

Shall we do this now?

Yeah. Yes.

Detective Senior Constable Cartwright,

I've been informed by HQ that today,

it's been five years since you started with us

at South Coast Police.

Therefore...

Ooooh!

Ta-da!

Oh!

Dolphin cake!

No way! Amazing!

Um, who wants some?

Oh, yes, please. Oh, go on, then.

Here we go.

Fruit cake! Yes! Ooh!

Fruit cake... Incredible.

Well, we are done!

Boxes ticked, we're finally ready for the wedding.

Oh, as if it was ever in doubt!

And while we've got you here,

today, when I was in a bit of strife,

you were the one who saved the day, Col.

Oh! You're the best.

Cheers!

The best...man.

Yeah, you just said that. Yeah...

You're joking?!

HE BABBLES

What about... What about Jacko?

Useless. Er, Rick? He's even worse.

So it is me? It's you, mate.

Oh, brilliant!

Oh, Gordon Bennett! I've got to get cracking

on a buck's night.

Ooh, yes!

The buck's night!

Hi.

Hi.

So we should...

..probably... Daisy and I are going away after the wedding,

obviously. Honeymoon.

Great.

So I was thinking you should probably take Frankie,

if that's OK?

Yeah, of course.

Permanently.

I just think it's easier...

..for Frankie...

DOG WHINES

..not having to go back and forth all the time.

She knows where she stands. She's not...

..pulled between two people.

Won't you miss her?

I will.

Quite a lot.

But...

I've got other things to focus on now.

I'll still get to see her all the time.

Definitely.

So it won't make that much of a difference.

No.

So that's that, then?

Looks like it.

Good girl, Frank.

See you, girl.

Probably tomorrow.

You've got to be at the Surf Club for seven.

Our buck's night. It's going to be debauchery and chaos.

Let's go! CHEERING

There's nothing as lethal as a woman's love.

Writer of crime novels gets brutally murdered.

The only people who could have done it had guest access,

and they were all on that panel.

How's Frankie? She misses you.

WHINING Frankie?

Snake! Oh, Colin, I've got to get her to the vet!

Since you've come home, everything is harder.

Oh, your life, it would just be so much easier

if I'd never come back.
