People say Ferdy Blake's a wild man,

but beneath that macho exterior,

all I can see is a total charmer.

SHE CHUCKLES

Ah! I never got invited to anything
when I was just a dog walker.

I guess this makes us Marlow VIPs.

What even happens at a book launch?

We'll find out soon enough.
Yeah, for free!

I'd have to take out a second
mortgage to afford that place.

Well, the prices are
a bit eye-watering. Mm.

But I do admire his
plant-to-plate ethos.

Everything locally sourced
wherever possible.

And I admire his rugged good looks.
SHE CHUCKLES

Shouldn't Becks be here by now?

I said we'd pick her up.

She needs rescuing from
her monster-in-law.

Ah, yes. The infamous Marian.

Oh, more convenience dinners,
Rebecca?

You'll need a bigger freezer soon.

I hope you got lemons.

In my day,

Colin was used to
cordon bleu dinners.

Cooked by our au pair,
who happened to be French.

Not always, darling!

We're both very busy,
so any time you want to help.

Well, I'd love to,
but I'm still so fragile

since your father passed on.

He's not dead, Mother.

He's in Frinton-on-Sea
with a new woman.

BECKS WHISPERS: And he's
never been happier.

I need ice, Colin.

What have you got there?

Pans, Chef.

I asked for knives.

When I ask for knives,
I want KNIVES!

Yes, Chef. Sorry, Chef.

I managed to forage
some ground elder

and lesser knapweed,
but no meadowsweet, Chef.

I don't like the word "no", Omari.

Are you going to explain
to our honoured guests

that the garnish is ruined

because you just
couldn't be bothered?

No, Chef.

How many times do I have
to tell you all?

In the pursuit of perfection,
precision is everything.

SAY IT!

Precision is everything, Chef.

Listen, I'll say this
because no-one else will.

I hope you're going to be more
charming to our guests

than you've been to the staff.

You're out of control, Ferdy.

Well, you know me, Isla. I can...

I can turn it on
when I need to.

Whatever you're selling,
we don't want it.

We're here to pick up Becks?

Rebecca?

Got to go. Church meeting.

What about dinner?

Well, you can surprise Colin

with one of your "cordon bleu
feasts". For old times' sake.

WHISPERS: Quick.
Before she comes after me.

MUSIC THUDS IN DISTANCE

Oh. Judith, we've got to try one.

It's Ferdy Blake's
signature cocktail.

LOWERS HER VOICE: The Devil's
Breath!

How delightfully botanical.
It's even got a flower in it.

It's a nasturtium.

It looks more like a science
experiment than a drink.

I think I'll stick to
the champagne. Thanks.

Oh.

SUZIE WHISPERS: I'll have hers, ta.

Everyone's ready, Chef.

Start the countdown.

Where's my blue steel?

HEAVY ROCK PLAYS ON HEADPHONES

She's actually doing
a profile, but...

Even DCI Greenly is here.

I cannot tell you what a relief it
is to get away from the vicarage.

Marian does seem rather...

Awful? She was only supposed
to stay for a couple of days,

but it's been two weeks now.

Another one of these,
and you'll forget all about her!

I think it'll take more than that.

Suzie, you've been doing
life coaching lessons.

Any strategies that might help?

Judith,
I'm only halfway through the course.

But we did learn last week
that it is better

to identify solutions rather than
focus on the problems themselves.

I fear that Marian is
a problem without a solution.

Oh, there's always a solution,
Becks. It'll come to you.

Oh, it's starting.

Excuse me. Excuse me.

SUZIE COUGHS

Are you OK?
I think I need to get out of here.

I'll come with you.
And here is the man of the moment...

No, no, no. I'll be fine. You stay.
..Mr Ferdy Blake!

BECKS WHISPERS: What's going on?
I've no idea.

SHE COUGHS

Where is he?

SHE EXHALES

Where is he?

Ferdy?

Everyone's waiting.
What's happening?

SCREAM IN DISTANCE

There you are.

Did you hear that scream?

What's going on?

Ferdy Blake's been murdered.

Nobody has been allowed into
the area where the body was found.

Forensics? On their way.

Who found the body?
Isla De Souza.

Ferdy Blake's ex-wife and
sous-chef.

The man with her is Damon Grady,

and he was running the event,
front of house.

It's your scene now, DI Malik.
Thank you, Ma'am.

Officers are waiting
to take your statements,

so thank you for your cooperation.

If you want to go over there,
and you guys over there.

Oh, here they come.
The spectres at the feast.

Oh. I had no idea you were familiar
with Shakespeare, Brendan.

Well, there's a lot about me
you don't know about me, Mrs Potts.

Like your secret dating life.

Becks!

Sorry!

Any news on that front?

No. I'm taking a break. Yeah, all
the women I've met have turned out

to be complete nut jobs.

Present company excepted.

Oh, thank you. I think. Yeah.

THEY CHUCKLE

Hmm, looks like I'm needed.

Can you explain exactly
what happened, Ms De Souza?

We were all at our stations,
ready to go.

Ferdy realised his blue steel knife
was missing.

He stormed off to get it.

When he didn't come back,

I went to see what was going on.

That's when I found him.

On the floor.

The knife in his chest.

Was anyone with him?

Cal Merson, the kitchen porter,
was at the sink.

Headphones on.

He only turned round
when I started screaming.

And where were you at the time,
Mr Grady?

We were all waiting in the dining
room for Ferdy's big entrance.

The clock counted down to zero,

but he didn't appear.

Then I heard a scream.

I went back of house and saw
Isla and Cal with Ferdy's body

in the wash area.

And where is he now?

He's in the staffroom.

I think he's in shock.

I'll go and talk to him, Guv.

It's this way.

Forensics have arrived.

Damon Grady said
they were all waiting for Ferdy

in the dining room.

But he wasn't.
When I went outside,

he passed me on his way back in.

Why absent himself
at such a critical moment?

And why lie about it?

According to the pathologist,
the bleeding's mostly internal.

So no trail, no footprints,
but there is a £50 note.

Cal Merson's completely shut down.

We're not going to get anything
out of him tonight.

Damon Grady's offered
to take him home.

We'll need to follow up
with both of them first thing.

Our main focus has to be on
the staff.

If anyone else had been
in this area,

they'd have stuck out
like a sore thumb.

Why kill him at such
a public event?

On a night that he's
the centre of attention.

Maybe they got off on
the thrill of being caught?

Or felt they had no choice?
Ferdy Blake had to die tonight. Mm.

And why the £50 note?

Must be a message of some kind.

Well, whatever the meaning,

the public nature of the murder
and the risk our killer took

shows how desperate they were.

So, I walked over here,

then I saw Damon Grady
go back inside.

And that's when you heard
the scream? Yeah.

It sounded like it was coming
from the back of the building.

So I walked round that side
to see what was going on,

and that's where you found me.

I suggest we split up

and take a closer look
around this area.

For what?

I'm not entirely sure.

We've collected all the guests'
details and sent them home.

The kitchen brigade all say they
were at their stations

at the time of the murder.
According to them,

the only people whose whereabouts
aren't accounted for

are Damon Grady,
Isla de Souza and Cal Merson.

And there's the kitchen gardener,
Omari Joseph,

but they said he left
20 minutes before the murder.

Tanika. Oh, look out.
Sherlock strikes again.

"This is your last warning.
Justice will finally be served."

Hey, Judith. Door was open.

I let Luna out into the garden.

Oh, that's fine.
Becks should be here soon.

Who's been sending you
fancy letters?

Oh, it's an old school friend,
Matthew Cartwright.

I haven't seen him in years.

He retired early
to the South of France,

and it seems his wife died recently,

and he's spending
the summer in Marlow.

What's his game, then?

Matthew was always
a quiet, unassuming man.

He must be lonely
with his wife gone.

Argh, argh!
Uh-oh. What's Marian done now?

Last night she took
the whole family out for

a champagne dinner at Lugano's.

She's never even bought me
a sandwich.

Well, don't let it get to you.

We'll find a solution.

In the meantime, we have to work out
who killed Ferdy Blake.

I know it's hard to believe,
but I swear to God,

I didn't see or hear anything.

How is that possible?
It happened right behind you.

Cause when I'm at work,
I wear noise-cancelling headphones.

I play really loud
to shut everything out,

but Isla's scream
cut through it all.

Tell us about your relationship
with Ferdy Blake.

Tell them the truth, Cal.

You've got nothing
to be ashamed of now.

He enjoyed humiliating people
who worked for him.

Last night, he tore into Isla
for messing up the sauce,

and then Omari for not getting
the herbs he wanted,

and then I overheard him
threaten to fire Damon.

And why would anyone
put up with it?

Well, the brigade all thought
that he was a genius,

and working for him
was good for their career.

But for me, well,
it was the only job I could get.

Why is that, Mr Merson?

HE SIGHS

I had some problems with addiction,

so I lost my job.

The house. Everything.

Thank God Nicki managed to get me
into rehab.

But after that,
I couldn't even get a reference.

So, when Ferdy offered to
take me on, I was so grateful.

Do you have any idea why we found
a £50 note on his body?

No...No, he's a wealthy man.

That kind of money wouldn't have
meant much to him.

And what about the threatening
letter we found in his car?

Do you know anything about that?
No.

Ferdy was an abusive bully

whose behaviour would make anyone
want to kill him.

This sounds awful,
but I'm glad he's dead.

No, Nicki. She don't mean that.
I mean every word of it.

He went out of his way
to torment my husband.

Where were you when it happened,
Mrs Merson?

Here. I called Cal just
to check he was coping OK,

something I always did
before service.

He didn't pick up,
so I left him a message.

It had all kicked off by then,

so I just sent her a text
to let her know that I was OK.

Guv, Brendan and Jason
are back at Gastronomy.

The preliminary search of
the building is complete.

They want to know our ETA.

OK. We'll get that all that
checked out,

but if you remember anything else,
call this number.

I was in no fit state
to drive last night,

so my car's still at the restaurant.

I don't suppose you would be able
to give us a lift?

Sure.

Found anything?

Just a few fag ends
and a takeaway box.

I tell you what,
I'd be ordering in if I had to eat

the nonsense they serve here.
Have you seen the menu?

Sweetbreads and nettle sauce.

Dandelion and mealworm ice cream.

Ice cream!

And the prices -
talk about "Emperor's New Clothes".

You're so wrong, Brendan.

Ferdy Blake was a genius.

Is this a wind-up?

No. I had a table booked next week.

I'd been on the waiting list
for months. I'm absolutely gutted.

BRENDAN CHUCKLES
You had a lucky escape, mate.

You think trying a different brand
of ketchup is being adventurous.

I need to re-educate you.

Yeah. Good luck with that, mate.

What have you got?

Uh... Old takeaway box,
neoprene glove,

the usual fag ends and cans.

Probably just rubbish,
but you never know.

Any progress here?

Forensics say the only prints on
the knife were Ferdy Blake's.

Oh. Did you get anywhere
with Cal Merson?

Only that he overheard the victim
threaten to fire Damon Grady.

Oh. Well, Mr Grady's supposed
to be here giving us

a witness statement,
but he's already over an hour late.

And not picking up his phone.

Check out his home address.

Ms De Souza's in the office,
Guv, and she is refusing to leave.

Hello, there. Sorry to startle you.

We're civilian advisers supporting
the police investigation.

Is there anything
we can help you with?

No...No, I'd lost my car keys.

I must have dropped them
on my fag break or something.

Oh, I'm... I'm going to have to...

That was a bit odd.
Very odd indeed.

Let's take a look.

I can't see anything.
Me neither.

But I can.

Those flowers on the ground -

the nasturtiums from
the cocktails last night.

There were no guests outside,
so how did they end up here?

You can't continue to work here,
Ms De Souza.

But there's so much to do.

As you can see,
Ferdy was a chaotic mess.

We're very sorry for your loss,

but this is still
an active crime scene.

I don't need your condolences,
DI Malik.

I lost Ferdy long before
the divorce,

and as you've no doubt gathered,
he was an extremely difficult man.

But you carried on
working together?

Half the business is mine.

Ferdy was desperate to buy me out,

but I wouldn't give him
the satisfaction.

Not after everything he put
me through.

So, relations between you
were strained?

Well, that's a polite way
of putting it.

Ferdy could never love anyone
but himself.

If I can't be useful here,
I suppose I'd better go home.

A threatening letter was found
in Mr Blake's car.

Do you know anything about that?

No, Ferdy didn't confide in me
about anything.

Is there a safe in here?

In that cupboard,
but it's just work stuff.

We'll need the keys to it.

They're just there.

She seems remarkably unaffected
by her ex-husband's death.

Yeah, doesn't she?

This would be the perfect escape
route for our killer.

Sh. Someone's coming.

To let you know that
your job is safe.

Look, we need to handle this
very carefully.

I know.

But the police are still here,

sticking their noses
into everything.

Best if I come to you.
Usual place? Five minutes?

What does Isla De Souza
need to "handle"

and who is she planning to meet?

We're not going to find out by
standing around here, are we?

What have you got?
So far, just restaurant contracts,

deeds for this place.

Guv? Look at this.

More threats.

Looks like the same handwriting
as the note Judith found.

Get them to forensics.

Who's he?

That's Omari, the kitchen gardener.

I recognise him from
the staff photograph.

His bio says he runs
a foraging course in the woods.

They work together,
so why the secret assignation?

Maybe Omari killed Ferdy
as some sort of favour to Isla,

and now they're having
some sort of debrief?

Do you think he'd do
the same for me?

Turns out Marian
didn't pay for dinner.

Colin and I did.

She's convinced Colin she'll
pay us back, but she never does.

You've got to help me, Suzie.

We did this lecture in week two

about removing toxic people
from your life.

You need to focus on
setting clear boundaries,

prioritise your wellbeing,

then gradually reduce contact.

But how can I do that?
She's living in my house.

Yeah, I see your point.

LUNA GROWLS
Luna. Are you all right, girl?

LUNA WHINES
Luna.

LUNA BARKS
Luna, come back here now. Luna!

I don't understand it.
Luna is not a bolter,

and she's got brilliant recall.

LUNA BARKS

Oh.

Sounds like she's this way
somewhere. Come on.

What about that sign?

What sign?

LUNA BARKS

She's closer. Definitely.

It's OK, girl. We're coming.

It's all right, Luna.
I'm coming, girl.

Oi, stop!

For goodness' sake!

Oh, no. I am so, so sorry!

We'll pay for any damage.

There's no point.
It's too late in the season.

Luna. Good girl. Get out, go on.

She's not normally like this.

Have you got any food stored here
or in the woods?

Cheese maybe? Luna loves cheese!

No...Nothing like that.

I'm so sorry we've caused you
even more upset

after last night's terrible events.

We were guests at
the book launch.

Must've been a dreadful shock.

I still can't believe it.

You must've worked
very closely together.

We did.

The relationship between chef
and kitchen gardener

was at the heart of
Gastronomy's menu.

But from what I hear,

Mr Blake could also be
quite...difficult at times.

Great chefs like him
are always perfectionists.

Volatile in the heat of service.

But I rarely saw that side of him.

So, rumours of him being
a bit of a monster aren't true?

Well, he was always good to me.

How are the rest of
the staff taking it?

I don't know. I haven't seen anyone
since it happened.

Please, let me help you with this.

Thank you, but I'd rather be alone.

I'm so sorry.

Luna. Good girl.

Sounds like Ferdy Blake
was charismatic

but a nightmare to work with.

A man with more enemies
than friends.

We heard that last night,
he had altercations

with Isla De Souza, Cal Merson,
Omari Joseph and Damon Grady.

Any news on the elusive Mr Grady?

Uh, well, we went to his house,
but no joy.

So, I pulled his phone records
to see if we can track him down.

What do we have on him?

Background checks show
he's an ex-offender

on a return to work
placement scheme.

He's got form for burglary and
fraud, but nothing with violence.

But from what we've heard,
Ferdy Blake's behaviour

could make anyone turn into
a cold-blooded killer.

Nicki Merson would agree.

She called Ferdy "an abusive bully".
Seemed happy he was dead.

Her claim that she spoke to Cal
Merson at Gastronomy checks out.

Her call came from their home phone,

nine minutes after
Ferdy Blake's murder.

The Mersons live 30 minutes' drive
away. She couldn't have been there.

What have we got on Isla De Souza?

There is an interesting clause
in their divorce settlement.

If one of them dies,

the business automatically reverts
to the other party.

So, Ferdy Blake's demise was
very much to her advantage.

After she left you, we overheard
her arranging to meet someone.

It all seemed a bit...underhand,
so we followed her into the woods.

She told us she was going home.
Who did she meet?

Omari Joseph.

Could you hear anything?

No. But we managed to speak
to him in the kitchen garden.

He seemed positive about his
relationship with Ferdy.

But based on what everyone else
says, that seems unlikely.

He also claimed he hadn't
seen anyone from Gastronomy

since the murder,
which we know was a lie.

We need to focus on
the message behind the £50 note.

It proves the murder
was premeditated.

DC KENNEDY: I think you
should all see this.

It's just gone live
on a tabloid website.

You know how much I love this pan,
don't you?

Yes, Chef.
And how I've asked you very nicely

to take extra special care of it?
Yes, Chef. Then why haven't you?

Look at this. Sorry, Chef. My
mistake. It won't happen again.

Yeah?

Do them again. Just to make sure.

We need to work out where
that video came from

and why Omari Joseph is lying
about meeting Isla De Souza.

I reckon it's time we paid both
of them a visit.

I've just had the tabloid's editor
on the phone.

He claims we're putting
undue pressure on them

to reveal their sources.

We really need that information.

Well, we can keep trying, but
the press always dig their heels in.

Which reminds me - remember
to get your profile booked in.

Ma'am.

Are you all right, Tanika?

The Bucks Chronicle are trying
to arrange a time for an interview.

They want me to talk about my life
away from work.

Why would anyone be interested?

Because you're a successful,
multi-tasking woman

who's so much more than
her job title.

Suzie's started
a life coaching course.

Seems she's got
quite a flair for it.

I ain't been doing it for long.

I mean,
I've still got a lot to learn.

I need all the help I can get.
Oh, go on. Give it a go.

Well, if you're up for it,
I could try. Yeah, sounds good.

I'd better go. Alice is waiting.

I suppose that leaves us with Damon.

If he's an ex-offender,

he might be avoiding the police
out of fear or lack of trust.

Or because he's guilty as hell.

Well, either way, maybe we'll
have more luck talking to him.

Who was the last person to see him?

Oh, Cal Merson. Damon gave him
a lift home last night.

So, they must be good friends

if Damon's the person Cal turned
to in his hour of need. Shall we?

Mr Joseph?

DS Perry.

How can I help?

We've been asked to search
the Gastronomy estate.

I've already told you
everything I know.

Not quite.
A clause in your divorce agreement

has come to our attention,

and I quote, "Ownership of the
business automatically reverts to

"the other partner upon death".

This gives you motive.

Why didn't you tell us?

Because it's none of your business.

You've already stated that relations
between you and the victim

were strained, and now it's clear

you had a lot to gain
from his death.

As he would from mine.

But I didn't kill him.

Let's talk about your relationship
with Omari Joseph.

What relationship?
He's just an employee.

When was the last time
you spoke to him?

This morning. After I'd seen you.

You told us you were going home.

I changed my mind.

I knew he'd be worried
about his future.

I went to tell him his job was safe.

That, when we're able to reopen,
he would still be a part of it.

I've spent years building
the Gastronomy brand.

I refuse to let it die
along with Ferdy.

Good morning, Mr Merson.

Just thought we'd follow up
and see how you're doing.

Must have been pretty traumatic,

being there when it happened
and not seeing anything?

It was, yeah. I was hoping
it might take my mind off it,

going through all this old stuff.

Need to make a fresh start.

There was one thing you might be
able to help us with.

The police are looking
for Damon Grady.

We believe he dropped you home
last night?

There's no way he's involved.
Damon wouldn't hurt anyone.

I'm sure you're right. But we know
he's been in trouble before,

and he has questions to answer.

If he keeps hiding from the police,

then he might breach
the conditions of his release.

If Damon needs to clear his head,
he goes fishing on the river.

Down near Hampton's Marina.
Thank you.

I'm pretty sure that's him.

It's going to take ages
to walk all the way round to him.

Are you sure you don't need
some sort of qualification

to take this out?
Any idiot can hire one.

It's the equivalent of
a bumper car on water.

Just go easy on the bumps, Becks,
because I'm feeling a bit queasy.

Mr Grady?

What are you lot doing over here?

The police are trying
to contact you.

Becks?
Oh. Just give me a second.

You agreed to meet them at
the restaurant this morning.

Yeah, well. I had stuff to do,
didn't I?

BOAT ENGINE STALLS
Oh!

Looks like it.
Come on, mate. What's going on?

What are you doing? I'm trying
my best. Take it gently, Becks.

Hold on.

You do know that
if you push the lever up,

you'll put it in neutral?

Look, whatever I say,
the police won't believe me.

So, what's the point?

Why should they believe you?

You've already lied to them.

You said you were front of house
when Ferdy Blake was murdered,

but I saw you walk back in
just after it happened.

Yeah, well, I needed some air.

Doesn't mean I topped him, does it?

You must've felt like it sometimes.

No. Never.

So, his rants never got to you?

They got to everyone else.

I've dealt with far worse than
Ferdy inside.

It's water off a duck's back.

We heard he threatened
to fire you last night.

What was that about?
It was just Ferdy being Ferdy.

Five minutes later, he'd be fine.

But five minutes later,
he was dead.

Sorry. I can't help you.

You need to talk to
the police, Damon.

You have my word
they'll give you a fair hearing.

Just leave it.

Oh.

Almost done, Mr Joseph.

If there's anything
I can help you with, let me know.

Well, we need you to account
for your movements

from yesterday evening.

I delivered some produce
to the kitchen,

and then came back here. That's it.

And you haven't seen anyone from
Gastronomy since the murder?

No. No-one.

You're sure about that?

Because we have some witnesses
that saw you earlier today,

with Isla De Souza.

Oh, yes. I forgot.
I just bumped into her.

In the middle of the woods?

Ferdy Blake was receiving
a series of threatening notes.

And earlier today, someone
uploaded a video online

that wasn't very flattering,
to say the least.

We reckon the person behind it
worked for Gastronomy.

Any idea who that might be?

Sorry, I can't help.
I keep myself to myself.

My number,

in case there's anything else
you've forgotten.

Alice.
Hmm?

Look at this.

Turns out Omari changed his surname
from Laronde to Joseph

just before he started
work at Gastronomy.

Why would he do that?

Any news about your old boyfriend?

Matthew was never a boyfriend.

Who's Matthew? Some rich bloke
from the South of France

who's coming all the way to Marlow
to see Judith.

Even though she's already got
the Professor on the go.

I do not have anyone "on the go".

And we're not here to discuss the
complications of my private life.

We're here to talk about the case.

I like talking about
your complications.

No millionaires ever turn up
on my doorstep.

PHONE ALERT PINGS AND VIBRATES

Oh, it's from Brendan.

Damon is at the station now.

It seems our bankside intervention
got through to him.

So, these are our key suspects.

Damon's been hiding from the police.

Isla's been in secret conversations
with Omari,

and the video demonstrates the
extreme bullying Cal had to endure.

So, they all had a motive.

And they all had opportunity.

I think it's time
for some thinking outside the box.

Guv?

Well? What did Mr Grady
have to say for himself?

Well, he apologised
for giving us the runaround.

Claimed he freaked out
because of his past record.

Thought we'd assume he'd done it.

And he point-blank denied
any involvement in

the murder of Ferdy Blake,
or the videos.

Do you believe him?
Without any evidence,

we have no choice. For now.

I did some digging into
Omari Joseph,

formerly known as Omari Laronde.

A Jackson Laronde worked
with Ferdy Blake

at his first restaurant, Synthesis.

Turns out he's Omari's dad.

Is he now?
What do we know about him?

Only that he left under a cloud,

but that's got to be more
than a coincidence. Surely?

Great work, Jason. Keep digging.

What about the threatening
letters, Alice?

We got the report back from
the forensic document examiner.

There were no fingerprints,
but they did find a hair.

Why did you tell those women
where I was?

Because you not talking to
the police was making things worse.

You'll end up back inside.
Look, from now on,

we keep our heads down
and our mouths shut.

Got it? Are you coming or not?

Are you sure we really have time
for this, Judith?

Croquet requires
extreme concentration,

which allows the creative part
of the brain to roam free.

Come on. At the end of the day,

it's just hitting a ball
through a hoop.

Oh, it's far more than that, Suzie.

Croquet is about outsmarting
your opponent at every turn.

It's a strategy we employ every time
we solve a case.

But when everyone has means,
motive and opportunity...

..how do we get to the truth?

Luna definitely picked up
a scent in Omari's garden.

But if it wasn't cheese,
what was it?

The croquet is doing its job.

You're thinking outside the box.

Before Iqbal had her,
Luna was selected for training

as an airport sniffer dog,

but she couldn't handle
the engine noise.

We found her in the kitchen garden,

but the scent that she originally
followed was in the woods.

MOBILE PINGS AND VIBRATES

It's from Tanika.

"A hair found on
the threatening notes

"has been identified
as a boar bristle."

Luna was trying
to tell us something.

Yeah, but what?

I don't get it.

That the answer to this puzzle
lies somewhere in those woods.

Right.

I win. I'll see you
tomorrow morning.

Not for a rematch, please.

Wear outdoor clothes,
and bring Luna.

We're going...foraging.

Judith. Darling!

How wonderful to see you again
after all this time.

Matthew! Is it you?

Well, I have changed somewhat
since we last met.

For the better, I hope.

You did get my note?

I did, but I had no idea
your visit was...imminent.

I'm a man of impulse, Judith.

When I want something,
I go for it.

Hence the remarkable success
of my business ventures.

The thing is, Matthew,
I-I was just about to leave.

Can't you get out of it?

I want to see as much of you
as I possibly can.

Starting now!

Guv?

Ferdy Blake's bank records flag up
something interesting.

Regular withdrawals
of large amounts of cash

over the past six months,
increasing in size.

Do you think it connects with
the money pinned to his body?

Could do.
No-one uses cash any more,

unless it's for something dodgy.

Speak to the staff, his suppliers.

Did anyone see Ferdy Blake
flashing the cash?

Someone must know
what the money was for.

Can you believe it's over 40 years
since our halcyon school days?!

You with your long, flaming
red hair. Always such a beauty.

Not quite so long or flaming now,
but thank you.

I thought I heard voices.

Darius, you're back.

Yes. Finally.

I thought I'd call in to tell you
all about the Welsh dig.

Right. Well, your timing's
a little off, I'm afraid.

Judith and I were enjoying
an intimate tete-a-tete

after many years apart.

I'm sure you understand.

Yes, of course.
I'll leave you to it.

No, do stay.
You've come all this way.

No, honestly. It's fine.

Our chat can wait.

Please. I'll call you!

Now, where were we?

Well, perhaps we should speak
over lunch.

As I've said,
there's somewhere I need to be.

All right. Well, what about dinner
tomorrow night, then?

We can celebrate our reunion
with champagne.

Fine.

It's so kind of you to arrange this
at such short notice.

And don't worry, no dog this time.

Good.

Follow me.

Foraging is the act of
searching for and collecting

wild, edible plants,
fungi and other resources

from the natural environment.
This way.

This is near to where Luna bolted
the last time.

Time to activate phase one.
Roger that.

Oh, I'm so sorry.
I need to call my daughter.

I'll catch you up.

Follow me.

Hi, Zeta. What's the problem?

Oh, not again!

This is pineapple weed,

also known as wild chamomile.

It can be infused to make tea.

But the fresh flower heads
can also be eaten raw.

Oh!
The heads look like tiny pineapples.

Hence the name.

You don't think...

I do, yes. Text Tanika.

There you go.
They smell like pineapple, too.

Oh!

BARKING IN DISTANCE

I thought you said
the dog wasn't here.

Er, I don't know what's happened.

I-I'm so sorry, Mr Joseph.

This has to stop!

LUNA BARKS

Go on, girl.

It's from Becks.

Looks like our boar bristle
could have come from the brush

on Omari Joseph's foraging knife.

Makes sense, Guv.

Forensics just ID'd
the ink used in the notes.

It's UV and water-resistant,

typically used
in garden marker pens.

They're with him now in the middle
of the woods somewhere.

We need to get to them.

BIRD CALLS

Where is it, Luna?

What you found?

CROWS CAW

DOOR HINGE CREAKS

LUNA BARKS

Luna?

What is it, Luna? What you got?

Put that down.

Police!
Police!

Are you OK, Suzie?

Are you sure
you're all right, Suzie?

Yeah, we are now. Aren't we, girl?

Impressive work.

A little too risky for my liking,
but we got a result.

Detective Luna was
the real hero of the hour.

Thank you, Luna.
PHONE VIBRATES

DI Malik.

We're on our way.

We need to get back to
the restaurant. Now.
