1
00:00:25,995 --> 00:00:27,195
What?

2
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,399
Good morning, sunshine!

3
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,759
No, Alexa, it is not the morning.

4
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:33,353
Well, it is, but it's the part of the
morning

5
00:00:33,354 --> 00:00:34,799
where I'm meant to be asleep.

6
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,439
Hey, listen. If I need
to hook up a screen to a laptop,

7
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,359
do I need a USB to USB,

8
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,279
HDMI to HDMI or a C?

9
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,519
- What? Why?
- Why do you wanna do this?

10
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:46,039
Just in case I wanna screen mirror.

11
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,839
- Do you need to screen mirror?
- Well, I might.

12
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,559
It is 3.23, Alexa.

13
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:54,759
It is 3.23am.

14
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:56,360
Is that Madison?

15
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:58,399
Reuben says good morning.

16
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,959
- I say bonjour.
- How's things in France?

17
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:05,359
Tell him it's dark and quiet.
Almost as if everyone should be asleep.

18
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,176
Dis-moi ton secret. Dis-moi.

19
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,380
- All right, then.
- I'll let you go. Au revoir.

20
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:17,799
Isn't it the middle
of the night over there?

21
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,519
- Yeah. 12 hours behind.
- So, 3.23 in the morning apparently.

22
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,820
- So you called her because...?
- Cos I miss the sound of her voice.

23
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:30,199
Besides, she won't tell me why
she's suddenly on holiday en France.

24
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,611
So until she confirms my theories,

25
00:01:32,612 --> 00:01:35,337
I'm just gonna keep forgetting
about the time difference.

26
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:48,032
Let me guess. Professor Whatshisface
in the snail garden with a spade.

27
00:01:48,033 --> 00:01:49,096
- Nope.
- Beer.

28
00:01:49,097 --> 00:01:49,952
- Nope.
- Salt.

29
00:01:49,953 --> 00:01:51,239
Nope.

30
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,720
Sebastian Kent in the bush...

31
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:55,500
in a sculpture.

32
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,660
- What do you mean 'in a sculpture'?
- I told you it was macabre.

33
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:05,879
Sebastian Kent, bestselling author.
Disappeared a few weeks ago.

34
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,660
Oh, the crime writer guy?

35
00:02:09,920 --> 00:02:13,000
- I take it he's turned up.
- He sure has.

36
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,507
Found encased in a concrete sculpture

37
00:02:16,508 --> 00:02:18,799
on a bush trail near where he lives.

38
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,679
The sculpture just
appeared there one day.

39
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:25,780
If it hadn't been for flooding in
the area, he'd still be standing there.

40
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,011
Coroner found drugs in his system.

41
00:02:29,012 --> 00:02:33,799
He was sedated, coated in concrete.
Death by suffocation.

42
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,319
About four weeks ago.

43
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:36,531
Well, given his profile,

44
00:02:36,532 --> 00:02:39,319
you have done an
excellent job keeping the details quiet.

45
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,073
Well, the last thing we want is journos

46
00:02:41,074 --> 00:02:43,799
and obsessed Sebastian
Kent fans offering their theory.

47
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,039
- So what's the official theory?
- I wish I had something solid.

48
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:48,620
Nothing concrete?

49
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:53,120
- Had to.
- He had some enemies.

50
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,599
Ngaire Green, local lady.

51
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,931
They've been involved in a pretty public
war of words

52
00:02:57,932 --> 00:02:59,839
over a property development.

53
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:01,740
And who's Ngaire
Green when she's at home?

54
00:03:01,741 --> 00:03:04,220
Well, she's a sculptor.

55
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,940
We've been over and over her movements.

56
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:11,399
A sculptor hiding a body
in a sculpture. Bit obvious?

57
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,780
And Ngaire's only one of a dozen
locals who couldn't stand Sebastian.

58
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:21,159
The only person with anything nice
to say was his researcher, Adele.

59
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,399
She was away the night he disappeared.

60
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,860
But someone did this.
Put him right there in public view.

61
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,597
So you want fresh eyes on these two?

62
00:03:30,598 --> 00:03:33,279
Oh, come on. You know you want to.

63
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,360
You had me at 'macabre'.

64
00:03:50,820 --> 00:03:52,500
Check this out.

65
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,119
Ugh. People were walking past
a dead body for a month? Creepy.

66
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,236
Yep. The council's got

67
00:03:58,237 --> 00:03:59,599
no record of it being installed

68
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,679
and they've talked to
all the local sculptors.

69
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,559
God, who's that?

70
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,959
- Go away, you bloody people.
- No, no, no. Answer it.

71
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,171
Madison, the only person I
can tolerate at this time of night

72
00:04:09,172 --> 00:04:11,719
is en France, eating cereal.

73
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,919
Aw. It's almost like
you're missing me, Alexa.

74
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,719
It's OK. I'll be back before you
know it. Now answer it. It's Beth.

75
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,399
Come on. She'll think you're out.

76
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:25,080
Oh! You're right.
She is home. Hi. I'm Beth.

77
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,449
- She's here to help.
- Help who?

78
00:04:28,450 --> 00:04:29,480
You?

79
00:04:29,481 --> 00:04:32,199
So that you don't keep calling
Madison in the middle of the night.

80
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:33,660
What?

81
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:36,639
You didn't say she was scary.

82
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,199
- She's not.
- Most of the time she's not.

83
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,079
I- hang on. You work for Harry?

84
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:42,919
Sat next to Madison
at the police station?

85
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,039
Actually, I'm in between posts.

86
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,479
- Beth's a cryptologist.
- Navy intelligence.

87
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,039
Beth, Alexa's got a doozy.

88
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,399
A dead body found encased
in a concrete sculpture.

89
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:53,839
Amazing.

90
00:04:53,840 --> 00:04:55,719
You don't get that out at sea.

91
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,999
Yeah, the only clues are traces of
rat droppings in the concrete, and...

92
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,604
This is very confidential information

93
00:05:00,605 --> 00:05:02,919
you're giving to some
stranger in my lobby.

94
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:04,479
She's not a stranger. She's my friend.

95
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,359
And my security clearance
is higher than hers.

96
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,522
- Sorry, Mads.
- It's true. You're a star.

97
00:05:09,523 --> 00:05:11,119
Oh, you're the star.

98
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,759
Yeah, we're all stars.

99
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,079
Listen, I'm about to wrap my head
around a murder investigation.

100
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,319
I don't want to attend this intergen
affirmation party, all right?

101
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,079
- But I'm, I'm here to help.
- Beth is here to help.

102
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,180
- When I want help, I'll ask for it.
- Oh, wait.

103
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:29,890
Don't look at me like that.

104
00:05:41,700 --> 00:05:42,700
Nothing on the body,

105
00:05:42,701 --> 00:05:45,036
so someone knew how
to kill him without leaving evidence.

106
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:50,239
Someone like his assistant
who researches all his crime novels.

107
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:51,763
Madison filled me in on the rest of
the details

108
00:05:51,764 --> 00:05:52,959
after you kicked me out.

109
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:54,959
- Hi. Coffee?
- No, she's not staying.

110
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,039
- No, I don't touch caffeine.
- And she's not staying.

111
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,239
Ooh, actually, I'll grab
some of that, though, please.

112
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,879
Alexa's bread? Sure. Toasted?

113
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:04,928
Ooh. Fresh. Splash of olive oil.

114
00:06:04,929 --> 00:06:06,519
- OK.
- Thanks.

115
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:07,999
It looks amazing.

116
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:12,260
- Madison tell you to say that?
- No, I'm just a huge fan of carbs.

117
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,607
Anyway, the assistant, Adele,

118
00:06:15,608 --> 00:06:19,300
has just been named as a
beneficiary in Sebastian's will.

119
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,439
She's been ruled out by the police.
They like the sculptor.

120
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,460
Here. You can see why.

121
00:06:25,893 --> 00:06:28,439
Left to feral NIMBYs...

122
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,440
- What's a NIMBY?
- Not In My Backyard.

123
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,380
- People who oppose change.
- Ah. Copy that.

124
00:06:36,280 --> 00:06:38,371
NIMBY leader is Ngaire Green,

125
00:06:38,372 --> 00:06:42,959
whose idealism is as simplistic
as the handicraft she hawks as art.

126
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,949
Ouch. Sebastian Kent wrote that?

127
00:06:45,950 --> 00:06:48,759
Yeah. And plenty others besides.

128
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,760
Ooh. Thank you.

129
00:06:54,433 --> 00:06:56,660
Oh my God. Shut up!

130
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:58,799
No, you shut up.

131
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:03,319
Look, Ngaire owns a sculpting studio.
Ngaire hated the victim.

132
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,291
All things point to Ngaire except Harry
and his team

133
00:07:06,292 --> 00:07:08,359
can find no hard evidence.

134
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,336
Nothing concrete?

135
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,568
Ngaire wasn't the only one that
Sebastian gave a hard time to.

136
00:07:14,569 --> 00:07:16,919
Check this out from eight months ago.

137
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:18,639
An assault on our town's character,

138
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,559
courtesy of billionaire Jack Sallinger,

139
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,439
who plans to build himself
a survival bunker

140
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,540
with no concern for the impact
it will have in our area.

141
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,879
He's a Doomsday prepper?
Oh, We have to talk to him.

142
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,465
Harry already did.

143
00:07:31,466 --> 00:07:34,079
He came forward
because he'd had a drink with Sebastian

144
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,199
before he disappeared and his prints
were confirmed at the scene.

145
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,005
Well, if he's got a bunker,
I wanna see it.

146
00:07:40,006 --> 00:07:41,359
I bet it's amazing.

147
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,691
You know, I've never understood
why people with obscene fortunes

148
00:07:43,692 --> 00:07:44,719
don't do good for the world

149
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,999
instead of gratifying their egos
with things like survival bunkers.

150
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,900
Well, if I had the money,
I'd totally get a bunker.

151
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,919
- What on earth for?
- Zombie apocalypse.

152
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,140
You do know that zombies
aren't real. Don't you?

153
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,300
- Wait, you don't have a survival plan?
- Nope.

154
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,639
Get this. Adele worked for
the victim, Sebastian, for 12 years.

155
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:17,628
So I reckon that,

156
00:08:17,629 --> 00:08:21,399
I assume that Madison told you
that I'm the one who does the talking.

157
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:22,740
Copy that.

158
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,079
Sebastian was very particular
about everything having its place,

159
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,679
his wardrobe's colour-coded,
books alphabetised.

160
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,559
Well, some people
colour-code their books too.

161
00:08:33,560 --> 00:08:34,991
I mean, it's a tough decision, right?

162
00:08:34,992 --> 00:08:37,620
Alphabetical or colour-coded,
because you can't choose...

163
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:39,719
both.

164
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:43,199
I keep expecting him just
to walk in. Ask me about a password.

165
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,940
How to buy capsules
for the coffee machine.

166
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,518
So you were his
assistant for a long time.

167
00:08:49,780 --> 00:08:51,399
Over 12 years.

168
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:55,199
Well, you must have been close
for him to leave you this nice house.

169
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:59,080
- We were close, but not like that.
- I had no idea.

170
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,160
That was Sebastian. He loved surprises.

171
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,460
Still, a house is next level, isn't it?

172
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:09,719
You can't think that I was involved.

173
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:11,761
The police said that they
couldn't confirm your alibi

174
00:09:11,762 --> 00:09:13,319
on the night he disappeared,

175
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,519
and you said you were in Auckland.

176
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,188
No, they spoke to the Airbnb owners

177
00:09:17,189 --> 00:09:19,199
and confirmed that's where I stayed.

178
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,399
I was at a concert, but I was
on my own, so I can't prove it.

179
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,500
Do you often go to concerts alone?

180
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,940
If I can't find anyone
who enjoys the same music, yes.

181
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:34,206
The ticket was actually a gift
from Sebastian. It was generous.

182
00:09:34,207 --> 00:09:35,351
Really?

183
00:09:35,352 --> 00:09:38,519
Look, I know that the police
still don't have any strong leads,

184
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,520
so I've made a list.

185
00:09:41,619 --> 00:09:43,509
All of the people he's ever fallen out
with.

186
00:09:43,510 --> 00:09:45,500
Anyone who might wanna hurt him.

187
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,920
Oh. This is helpful...

188
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,520
and meticulous.

189
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:58,039
No Ngaire Green. Didn't she
and Sebastian have a feud going?

190
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,919
Well, yes... Ngaire Green
is a tree-hugging vegan.

191
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:03,981
She couldn't murder a mosquito,
let alone a man.

192
00:10:03,982 --> 00:10:06,620
I wouldn't bother with
Ngaire if I were you.

193
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,612
We love your work, Ngaire.

194
00:10:11,613 --> 00:10:17,112
I am big on reclaimed materials,
you know, repurposing.

195
00:10:17,113 --> 00:10:19,645
Which gallery did you
say you were from again?

196
00:10:19,646 --> 00:10:22,249
Ah... Trumans.

197
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,952
Yep, we're new. We just opened.

198
00:10:24,953 --> 00:10:27,759
Yeah. Hey, I heard about that writer.

199
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,999
That must've been hard
on the arts community.

200
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:34,639
Oh, it was, but, um... we're all a bit
sick of talking about it, to be honest.

201
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,239
Really? I would've thought you'd
be dining out on that for years.

202
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:42,439
I mean, famous author, dead inside
a statue. That's pretty juicy.

203
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,520
Where did you hear that?

204
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,159
- Where did we hear that?
- Oh, um...

205
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,919
- Yeah. Down the village.
- Mrs Haveachat.

206
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:51,967
OK, why don't you tell me what you're
really doing here.

207
00:10:51,968 --> 00:10:54,439
What are you, a reporter?

208
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,359
- Police consultant.
- And this is Beth.

209
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,279
Well, I don't really know what Beth
does. I just found her actually.

210
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,480
God, I'm so sick of being questioned.

211
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,599
Yes, I thought Sebastian
was an arrogant pig.

212
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,600
No, I didn't kill him.

213
00:11:10,227 --> 00:11:11,785
But if you had,

214
00:11:11,786 --> 00:11:14,298
last place you'd hide
him is in a statue.

215
00:11:14,299 --> 00:11:16,380
- Am I right?
- Exactly.

216
00:11:17,213 --> 00:11:18,851
So, in your expert opinion,

217
00:11:18,852 --> 00:11:21,373
why did that thing fall
apart at the first fall of rain?

218
00:11:21,374 --> 00:11:22,731
Well, when you work with concrete,

219
00:11:22,732 --> 00:11:25,279
you have to make sure
that the shape inside is solid.

220
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,534
If you skimp on the coating, it leads to
thin concrete,

221
00:11:27,535 --> 00:11:29,220
which can easily crack.

222
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,719
- Are we done here?
- One more thing.

223
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:37,039
What size space would you need to
produce a piece of rubbish like that?

224
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:41,479
A space about this size. You could
do it in a bloody garage.

225
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,880
Sebastian was a, a vile, two-faced jerk.

226
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,499
Is the world better off without him?
Yes.

227
00:11:47,500 --> 00:11:50,559
Would I risk everything
to get rid of him?

228
00:11:50,560 --> 00:11:52,180
No way in hell.

229
00:11:54,493 --> 00:11:56,100
Thank you.

230
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,260
What a lovely spot to hide a body.

231
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,719
Our peace-loving vegan
sure is carrying a lot of rage.

232
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,479
Question is, did she let it
get the better of her?

233
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:11,959
Or there's, um... an obsessed fan
who stalked Sebastian for a year.

234
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:16,359
A reviewer who he sued.
A local butcher he slandered.

235
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,900
Harry already ruled out the stalker.

236
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,599
So did Adele put herself on that list?

237
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,159
You reckon she's dodgy?

238
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:28,079
Meh, she seemed awfully keen
to move us past her lack of alibi.

239
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,079
Maybe she's just desperate to help.

240
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,188
I think she takes a lot
of pride in being clever.

241
00:12:32,980 --> 00:12:35,799
Our killer thinks they're clever too.

242
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,279
- Well, how do you know?
- The crime is hidden in plain view,

243
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,388
and yet they weren't
clever enough to consider

244
00:12:41,389 --> 00:12:44,359
that all that heavy rain would
make the statue unstable.

245
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:48,020
- How did they even get it up here?
- They'd have to be pretty strong.

246
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,319
A bunch of local
Sebastian haters did it together.

247
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,839
I mean, there are
a lot of people on this list.

248
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:59,020
- Including the crypto billionaire?
- The Doomsday prepper?

249
00:13:00,386 --> 00:13:02,620
No. He's not.

250
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:04,860
That's a shame.

251
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,514
Hey, Beth. How's it going down there?

252
00:13:10,515 --> 00:13:11,639
Oh, yeah, it's going great.

253
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,039
She's letting me talk to some locals.

254
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,867
Ah, she's getting rid of you for a bit.

255
00:13:14,868 --> 00:13:16,919
No, I'm being useful.

256
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:20,959
I've spoken to a butcher,
a real estate agent and a florist,

257
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,839
but I just really wanted
to meet the prepper.

258
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,479
- There's a prepper?
- Oh, now I'm jealous.

259
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,571
Yeah. Did you know that Alexa doesn't
have a zombie apocalypse

260
00:13:28,572 --> 00:13:29,999
survival plan?

261
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,039
I'd let that go if I were you.

262
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:33,924
Yes, but I would appreciate
it if you could tell me

263
00:13:33,925 --> 00:13:35,999
when Mr Sallinger might be back.

264
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:37,451
He's out of the country,

265
00:13:37,452 --> 00:13:40,279
and I'm not privy to his travel plans.

266
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:41,700
Righto.

267
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:43,820
Thank you.

268
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,439
Excuse me.

269
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,799
This is private property.

270
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:01,800
How did you even get in?

271
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,119
- Do I need to call the police?
- No, I'm actually with the police.

272
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,685
I've just come to talk to Mr
Sallinger about a recent case.

273
00:14:07,686 --> 00:14:09,780
He's not here.

274
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,731
All right, well,
I can get out of your hair

275
00:14:13,732 --> 00:14:15,999
if you just tell me when
he's gonna be back.

276
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,000
I have no idea.

277
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:20,700
K.

278
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,300
You know, your blink rate
goes up when you're lyin'.

279
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,480
- OK, Adele.
- What exactly are you selling?

280
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:43,280
- Gidday., Hey, how was the prepper?
- Not home. Whatcha doing?

281
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,230
OK. So it turns out

282
00:14:45,231 --> 00:14:48,359
Adele made 9 grand
selling Sebastian Kent memorabilia.

283
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:49,820
Mm. Hm.

284
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:52,679
Ooh.

285
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,519
- What's this?
- Oh, I always bring a packed lunch.

286
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,518
But I thought it was gonna be
awkward eating in front of you,

287
00:14:58,519 --> 00:15:01,100
so I made you one too.

288
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:02,996
If you don't want it,
you don't have to have it.

289
00:15:02,997 --> 00:15:05,540
No, no. I think I love it.

290
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,601
It's just a bit weird.
You're kinda like my Gen Z grandma.

291
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,851
9 grand selling signed
manuscripts on eBay

292
00:15:12,852 --> 00:15:15,879
using the vendor name Crimebabe Adele,

293
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,199
but she could've been
selling on his behalf.

294
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:19,314
Nah, I doubt it.

295
00:15:19,315 --> 00:15:22,900
He's a rich cheapskate, and she's
the doormat who made his life run.

296
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:24,952
So she forged his autograph

297
00:15:24,953 --> 00:15:28,079
and flicked
his manuscripts for some extra cash?

298
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,159
Well done, Beth.
I think I'm glad I brought along.

299
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,438
Madison actually gave me some
pointers on remotely accessing...

300
00:15:33,439 --> 00:15:35,319
I'm talkin' about this.

301
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,320
Oh. Right.

302
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,079
So Adele is hawking
Sebastian memorabilia...

303
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,260
- and doing quite well out of it.
- Mm-hm.

304
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,719
What about recently?
Getting better prices now, I reckon.

305
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,500
Because you know how to make
an artist's work more valuable?

306
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:54,980
You kill 'em.

307
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,660
Adele.

308
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,759
- Adele.
- Oh.

309
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:09,832
I'm just heading to an exercise class,

310
00:16:09,833 --> 00:16:12,100
but I could give you five minutes.

311
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,100
I can see that you take
your workouts seriously.

312
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:19,839
I've been doing a transformational
programme for the last six months.

313
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:23,180
According to eBay, you've been
transforming your finances too.

314
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,640
I needed to make ends meet.

315
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,880
By selling your boss' stuff?

316
00:16:30,513 --> 00:16:32,101
Sebastian was so stingy.

317
00:16:32,102 --> 00:16:34,673
He hadn't given
me a pay rise in six years. He owed me.

318
00:16:34,674 --> 00:16:37,159
Adele, you said he was generous.

319
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,760
A concert ticket! One ticket.

320
00:16:40,219 --> 00:16:42,579
I couldn't have taken
a friend even if I had one.

321
00:16:42,580 --> 00:16:43,895
And do you know what he said to me

322
00:16:43,896 --> 00:16:46,100
the
last time I asked him for a pay rise?

323
00:16:46,101 --> 00:16:48,159
I'm guessing, 'No'?

324
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,919
He said I should be grateful that
he'd employed me all these years,

325
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,359
that I would never find
a better situation.

326
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:57,439
Ah. So that justified
selling the signed manuscripts.

327
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,780
I wasted a third of my life
in service to his career.

328
00:17:01,327 --> 00:17:05,527
I was planning on leaving.
I didn't get the chance.

329
00:17:06,686 --> 00:17:10,686
Now, if you'll excuse me,
I have somewhere to be.

330
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:21,460
Thank you.

331
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,960
Who goes to an exercise class

332
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:26,784
in hiking boots?

333
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:37,860
Wanna guess who she's waiting for?

334
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,239
Well, they both had reasons
to want him gone.

335
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:53,959
Makes sense that they're working
together. But why come back now?

336
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:55,509
Checking they didn't leave any evidence?

337
00:17:55,510 --> 00:17:57,780
Or planning to plant some?

338
00:18:10,140 --> 00:18:12,140
Or just remorse?

339
00:18:19,239 --> 00:18:22,719
Adele was out of town the night
that Sebastian disappeared,

340
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,959
and Ngaire, according to Harry,
was at the studio working.

341
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,533
But what if they tag-teamed?
Like, Ngaire did the murder

342
00:18:28,534 --> 00:18:30,319
and Adele came back
later to move the body.

343
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,258
I mean, that way they
would never be seen together.

344
00:18:32,259 --> 00:18:33,439
That is brilliantly sneaky.

345
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:34,999
Yeah.

346
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:36,694
Find out how long those
two have been friends.

347
00:18:36,695 --> 00:18:37,900
Copy.

348
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:41,240
Hello. Mm-hm.

349
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,880
Oh, that sounds amazing.
Yeah, I'd love to.

350
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,760
K. See you soon.

351
00:18:53,813 --> 00:18:56,460
Our crypto billionaire
heard I'm looking for him.

352
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:15,239
I appreciate you meeting me here.
I like to avoid prying eyes.

353
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,199
- Oh, yeah? Local NIMBYs got you in their sights?
- Oh.

354
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,480
Wow.

355
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,192
You wouldn't believe some of the stuff
I've heard Jack Sallinger

356
00:19:24,193 --> 00:19:25,393
gets up to.

357
00:19:26,427 --> 00:19:29,690
Though I gather that you managed
to win over

358
00:19:29,691 --> 00:19:31,879
one of the local detractors.

359
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:33,879
Sebastian Kent?

360
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:35,519
Yeah.

361
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,759
We, uh-We had a rocky start,

362
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,760
but once we met,

363
00:19:40,046 --> 00:19:41,486
we were fine.

364
00:19:41,487 --> 00:19:45,055
I just hoped that him
supporting my building plans

365
00:19:45,056 --> 00:19:48,119
didn't have anything to do
with what happened, you know?

366
00:19:48,120 --> 00:19:50,180
Well, why would that get him killed?

367
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:55,320
Uh, because some
of these people are nuts.

368
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,720
There's a reason
I got CCTV running 24-7.

369
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,388
I gave the police a copy
of the last month's tapes

370
00:20:02,389 --> 00:20:04,460
in case there was anything helpful.

371
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:08,879
Was there any particular nutter
giving him problems?

372
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,759
Ngaire Green is the obvious candidate,
but you'll already know that.

373
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:16,799
Look, I get why Sebastian
got up people's noses.

374
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,279
He had a sharp tongue.
But he was a friend to me.

375
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,016
He even helped me with my novel.

376
00:20:23,360 --> 00:20:25,811
So not content to be a cryptocurrency
mogul,

377
00:20:25,812 --> 00:20:28,559
he writes and he paints too.

378
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,119
That is beautiful. I can't get over
it. Is there anything you can't do?

379
00:20:32,120 --> 00:20:36,879
Yes. Yes. Get the local council
to approve my building plans.

380
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:38,252
You'd think in this day and age,

381
00:20:38,253 --> 00:20:41,239
people would respect your
concern for climate catastrophe.

382
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,679
Right? I'm investing
in the future of the human race.

383
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,160
You want people like me
around to rebuild.

384
00:20:49,773 --> 00:20:52,011
Well, if you don't mind my saying,
this place is

385
00:20:52,012 --> 00:20:54,133
absolutely spectacular.

386
00:20:54,134 --> 00:20:55,760
May I have a tour?

387
00:20:55,761 --> 00:20:58,740
Well, I don't mind at all.
And yes, you may.

388
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,920
I needed a big chunk of land
to sustain a vertical garden,

389
00:21:07,921 --> 00:21:11,109
but I made the mistake
of clearing native bush.

390
00:21:11,110 --> 00:21:12,359
Uh-oh.

391
00:21:12,360 --> 00:21:13,839
Yeah, and then Ngaire Green,

392
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,199
she got it in her head that construction
would affect land stability,

393
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,319
and now she's hellbent
on blocking whatever I wanna do.

394
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,260
- That sounds about right.
- Check this out.

395
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,640
Thank you.

396
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,520
- So no bunker.
- Oh, everything's postponed.

397
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:38,799
But it looks like you were underway.

398
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,189
You see the archery range over there?

399
00:21:42,340 --> 00:21:45,079
They can't stop my survival training.

400
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:49,279
And so far, I'm good at almost
hitting trees.

401
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,060
You think of everything.

402
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,100
I do.

403
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:59,319
Look, I got a call with Tokyo, but
why don't you come back tomorrow?

404
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,199
I'll take you up to
where the helipad will be.

405
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,340
Sure, I'd love that.

406
00:22:03,973 --> 00:22:05,420
Me too.

407
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,159
Hello again.

408
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:21,404
Alexa. Hello.

409
00:22:21,405 --> 00:22:25,100
Why didn't you tell me that
you and Ngaire were best buds?

410
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,119
I kept it a secret
because Sebastian hated her.

411
00:22:29,120 --> 00:22:32,196
So Sebastian was allowed to
control who you were friends with?

412
00:22:32,197 --> 00:22:34,159
Not exactly.

413
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,839
There was a history with he and Ngaire.

414
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,832
Oh, I thought I was getting a rejected
lover vibe from her.

415
00:22:39,833 --> 00:22:41,439
So what happened?

416
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,519
- Jack Sallinger.
- Interesting fellow.

417
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:48,800
Interesting? He's an up-himself idiot.

418
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,959
Somehow Jack and Sebastian
became drinking buddies.

419
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,479
And then suddenly Sebastian was
publicly supporting his building plans.

420
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,879
- All of it, and Ngaire was devastated.
- Right.

421
00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:00,972
So she dumped him.

422
00:23:00,973 --> 00:23:04,799
Well, how did Sebastian feel
about that? Was he upset? Angry?

423
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:06,215
More interested in boasting

424
00:23:06,216 --> 00:23:09,079
that Jack had offered him a place
in the bunker when it was built.

425
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,331
Jack Sallinger loves surrounding
himself with famous people.

426
00:23:11,332 --> 00:23:13,340
It feeds his ridiculous ego.

427
00:23:14,120 --> 00:23:16,700
So what did Sebastian see in him?

428
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:19,771
Everyone has a price.

429
00:23:19,772 --> 00:23:23,020
The dollar signs are big
enough; we all forget our ethics.

430
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,900
So Adele and Ngaire remained
friends, but on the downlow.

431
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,380
They didn't wanna upset
poor, sensitive Sebastian.

432
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:34,291
But if Adele wanted to kill him,

433
00:23:34,292 --> 00:23:36,559
well, surely there's easier ways, right?

434
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,479
I mean, she had access to his schedule

435
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,599
to his food, to his drink.

436
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,180
Then why go to all the palaver
of putting him in a statue?

437
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,400
- Harry, Beth. Beth, Harry.
- Hi., Hey.

438
00:23:50,360 --> 00:23:51,530
What you got for me?

439
00:23:51,531 --> 00:23:54,599
Nothing.
I just wanted to see the new girl.

440
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,029
Madison speaks very highly of you.

441
00:23:56,030 --> 00:24:00,599
Aw, I love her.
We met in Stardew Valley.

442
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:01,919
Can't say I've heard of it.

443
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,600
- Wait, you met on a game?
- Mm-hm.

444
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:10,620
- Have you ever met her in real life?
- Not yet. But Madison is iconic.

445
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,720
K, watch out. It's hot.

446
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,040
- So the sculptor.
- Anything I missed?

447
00:24:18,386 --> 00:24:21,039
Our billionaire prepper
thinks she's mad enough to do it.

448
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,379
Ah,
so you've met old mate Jack Sallinger.

449
00:24:23,380 --> 00:24:24,319
Mm.

450
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,519
- What did you think?
- Terrible painter, thinks he's great.

451
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,606
But he is building a ventilation system

452
00:24:29,607 --> 00:24:31,239
that he didn't want me anywhere near.

453
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,319
Ventilation. The number
one pre-req for a survival bunker.

454
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,377
The bunker he can't get
permission to build, so...

455
00:24:36,378 --> 00:24:37,439
Ooh.

456
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,220
Maybe he's building
an underground rat-breeding lab.

457
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,959
Rats are ideal microlivestock
in apocalyptic times.

458
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:46,316
Well,
I suppose if they're bred properly,

459
00:24:46,317 --> 00:24:47,839
they could be a good source of protein.

460
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:49,840
Exactly.

461
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,319
Well, he may not have his bunker,
but he's definitely hiding something.

462
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,331
Why would a guy with all that power
and cash

463
00:24:57,332 --> 00:24:59,380
risk it all by killing someone?

464
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:03,100
- Boredom. Revenge.
- Notoriety. Fun.

465
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:04,839
- Bread and butter.
- All right.

466
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:06,733
Well, the last thing we want is an angry
billionaire

467
00:25:06,734 --> 00:25:08,359
making our lives difficult.

468
00:25:08,360 --> 00:25:10,539
In other words, I can't piss him off,

469
00:25:10,540 --> 00:25:12,519
but
that's why I've got you, right, Alexa?

470
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:14,520
Oh, don't worry.

471
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,720
Jack Sallinger thinks I'm lovely.

472
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,879
OK, so this is around 8.30.
It fits the story Jack told Harry.

473
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,324
Went to Sebastian's place,

474
00:25:30,325 --> 00:25:33,439
had a drink,
came home early, parked in his garage.

475
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,759
- Well, maybe he's telling the truth.
- I'll soon find out.

476
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:38,760
Well, I should come.

477
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:42,359
I mean, you're not really down with
the whole Doomsday prepping thing.

478
00:25:42,360 --> 00:25:45,119
Well, that's cos I'm not a lunatic
obsessed with the end of the world.

479
00:25:45,120 --> 00:25:47,599
Yeah, but I bet
you've got a basic survival kit.

480
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,980
May have a torch around here somewhere.

481
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,599
You'll need to put this on.

482
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,232
Well, lucky I spent all that
time doing my hair this morning.

483
00:26:07,120 --> 00:26:11,800
- Whoo-hoo!, You've done this before.
- Never like this.

484
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,760
- Where are you taking me?
- You'll find out.

485
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:25,440
- Can't believe this is all yours.
- We've seen nothing yet.

486
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:27,720
- Whoo-hoo!
- Whoo!

487
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,080
- Oh, wow!
- Huh?

488
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:37,372
Well, congratulations on buying
the most spectacular view in the area.

489
00:26:37,373 --> 00:26:38,780
Thanks.

490
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,211
Well, the helipad's a work in progress,

491
00:26:42,212 --> 00:26:45,100
obviously,
but I'm up there all the time.

492
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,959
Can't do much
until the permit comes through.

493
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:52,239
Must be so frustrating to have
all this resistance to your vision.

494
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,926
Visionaries always
have to endure mockery

495
00:26:54,927 --> 00:26:57,999
from those without ideas of their own.

496
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,280
- Right.
- Sebastian got it.

497
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,300
He was clever.

498
00:27:04,360 --> 00:27:06,916
One of the scariest
things I've ever done was,

499
00:27:06,917 --> 00:27:10,759
uh ask him to look at my novel.

500
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,588
Let me guess. Cyber thriller.

501
00:27:12,589 --> 00:27:16,959
No. Hard-boiled crime.
Didn't even take me that long.

502
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,351
Sebastian said it
showed a lot of promise,

503
00:27:19,352 --> 00:27:21,279
which-high praise coming from him.

504
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,319
Well, I'm looking forward
to reading it when it's published.

505
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,340
I'll send you a signed copy.

506
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,420
So what's the plan with these NIMBYs?

507
00:27:32,120 --> 00:27:34,066
Well, everybody wants something.

508
00:27:34,067 --> 00:27:38,279
So everyone has their price?,
You ever met anyone whodidn't?

509
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,280
Yeah. Me.

510
00:27:43,860 --> 00:27:45,380
Mm?

511
00:27:45,381 --> 00:27:47,381
I will pay you...

512
00:27:48,120 --> 00:27:49,740
anything...

513
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,300
for that bread recipe.

514
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:56,020
Well, how about I just give it to you?

515
00:27:56,992 --> 00:27:59,832
Well, you're going to need
bread-baking skills down in that bunker.

516
00:27:59,833 --> 00:28:00,931
Oh, you keep that up,

517
00:28:00,932 --> 00:28:03,620
I'm gonna think you're
angling for a place down there with me.

518
00:28:06,120 --> 00:28:08,571
Guess who has an appeal the decision
on his bunker plans

519
00:28:08,572 --> 00:28:10,016
for over a year.

520
00:28:12,120 --> 00:28:15,269
So he already has a
bunker and screw the permits.

521
00:28:15,270 --> 00:28:16,199
Mm-hm.

522
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:20,239
And if he does it on the downlow,
the locals can't do a thing.

523
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,398
And the cops can't search
a place they don't know exists.

524
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:28,340
I always say the best murder site
is one that no one knows is there.

525
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:37,639
Sebastian was offered
a place in Jack's bunker.

526
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,359
The bunker that hadn't been built yet.

527
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,460
Well, I suppose he thought
he'd win the battle to build.

528
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:44,758
So when Sebastian went up there,

529
00:28:44,759 --> 00:28:47,559
did he say anything about it?
Had he noticed anything?

530
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,479
I mean, a show-off's
gotta show off, right?

531
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:52,820
- You think he was already building?
- Yeah, maybe.

532
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,940
Well, Seb didn't
mention anything. Sorry.

533
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,743
I thought you said
that he was fastidious

534
00:28:58,744 --> 00:29:00,319
about the way he ordered his books?

535
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,180
About everything. Why?

536
00:29:03,533 --> 00:29:06,013
This book. It's upside down.

537
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,400
Oh my God.

538
00:29:08,799 --> 00:29:10,500
Ngaio Marsh.

539
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:13,879
All the other books
are alphabetised by surname.

540
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:17,639
- Why is this in with the Ns?
- How did I not notice that?

541
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,460
I mean, I've been in and out
of here pottering about.

542
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,211
- What's this?
- It turned up anonymously in a gift box

543
00:29:24,212 --> 00:29:25,399
a while back.

544
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,879
Sebastian was convinced it was
a peace offering from Ngaire.

545
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:32,679
- And was it?
- I don't like to cast aspersions.

546
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:34,679
For God's sake, Adele.

547
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,159
This book, of all books,

548
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:38,999
was left out of place.

549
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:40,999
That's not a coincidence.

550
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:42,719
A message from the grave?

551
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,799
OK, so on the night he died, Sebastian
was in here drinking with Jack,

552
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,600
and at some point, he was drugged.

553
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,679
And he starts to feel that something's
wrong, so he staggers in here,

554
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:56,879
and he's desperately trying to find
the book clue for you, Adele.

555
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,480
But the killer notices,
and they pick it up,

556
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:02,794
and before they drag Sebastian away,

557
00:30:02,795 --> 00:30:06,199
they put it back. Only they
put it back in the wrong place.

558
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,252
Leaving a clue without even knowing it.

559
00:30:08,253 --> 00:30:09,679
Right.

560
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,780
Telling me that it was Ngaire?

561
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,799
I'm actually working, if you don't mind.

562
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,784
Did you give Sebastian this book?

563
00:30:18,785 --> 00:30:23,439
So what if I did? Better than
a flaming poo in a box, isn't it?

564
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,220
- What about this?
- It's Latin.

565
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:30,140
'A rich man is either a knave
or the heir of a knave.'

566
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:35,079
And a knave is another name
for a jack in the deck of cards.

567
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:38,559
So what is this? A warning
to stay away from Sallinger?

568
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:42,799
- It's a shame Sebastian ignored it.
- Still, they deserved each other.

569
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:46,980
Entitled egomaniacs.
Now, if you don't mind.

570
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,000
Adele's story pans out.

571
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,079
Now, if Ngaire did it,
it'd be in a rage.

572
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:58,171
A messy crime of passion,
not meticulously planned out.

573
00:30:58,172 --> 00:31:00,700
Meticulous planning points to Adele.

574
00:31:02,786 --> 00:31:07,079
OK. So we have an email
from Adele to Sebastian.

575
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,719
Should I read
Jack Sallinger's manuscript too?

576
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:11,519
And Sebastian's reply,

577
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:12,973
I would never do that to you.

578
00:31:12,974 --> 00:31:15,420
It's hours of your life
you'll never get back.

579
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,559
Wait. I thought you said
Sebastian liked Jack's novel.

580
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,439
No, Jack said Sebastian liked it.

581
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:27,300
Mind you, according to Jack,
I also fancy the pants off him, so...

582
00:31:27,301 --> 00:31:28,660
Ooh.

583
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:30,719
You know, this book...

584
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:32,163
Ngaire's warning to Sebastian

585
00:31:32,164 --> 00:31:34,951
is all about
a millionaire trying to build a mansion.

586
00:31:34,952 --> 00:31:36,097
Really?

587
00:31:36,098 --> 00:31:40,000
So is the warning from
the grave about Ngaire...

588
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,279
or Jack?

589
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:43,980
The knave.

590
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:48,559
I think we take a trip out there
tomorrow, see if there's a bunker or not.

591
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,560
- We?
- Wear something comfortable.

592
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,040
Yes.

593
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,264
Beth? You still breathing?

594
00:32:09,265 --> 00:32:12,599
Flashbacks to Navy training drills,
but I'm OK.

595
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:16,799
OK. I've accessed his
security system and jammed the CCTV.

596
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,778
No one will notice the same
footage on loop for an hour.

597
00:32:19,779 --> 00:32:21,300
Attagirl.

598
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,399
- Alexa.
- I've been looking forward to this.

599
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,199
- Me too.
- Come on in.

600
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:31,900
- Now, this is the important bit.
- This is your sourdough starter.

601
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:34,520
You've got to think
of it like a pet bacteria

602
00:32:34,521 --> 00:32:37,420
that you have to feed to keep it alive.

603
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:43,500
I've even named her for you.
This is Martha, after Martha Stewart.

604
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,399
The ex-felon? What are you implying?

605
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:50,753
Well, if you had spent all
your millions saving the world,

606
00:32:50,754 --> 00:32:52,679
I would have called it Gandhi.

607
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,159
Hey.

608
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:55,879
I do my bit.

609
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:57,879
Oh, I know you do.

610
00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:01,439
Anyway, Martha ought to expand
to twice her size.

611
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,319
You've just got to feed her
every eight hours,

612
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,011
a little bit of flour, maybe a little
bit of water,

613
00:33:06,012 --> 00:33:08,719
and that's about it.

614
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,000
So now we wait.

615
00:33:12,433 --> 00:33:14,713
What do we do while we wait?

616
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:20,559
I mean, I'd have lunch made,
but I give the staff weekends off.

617
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,319
- You do value your privacy.
- Exactly.

618
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:27,620
I mean, what if I wanna, you know,
invite someone over on a date

619
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:29,679
or, uh...

620
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,679
plan a murder?

621
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,079
I don't know
which I should be more afraid of.

622
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:35,463
The latter obviously.

623
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:56,753
This is from my own vineyard.

624
00:33:56,754 --> 00:34:00,056
A vintner now. Why am I not surprised?

625
00:34:05,073 --> 00:34:07,273
Sorry. I need to take this.

626
00:34:07,686 --> 00:34:09,340
Yeah, of course.

627
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:11,180
Yes?

628
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,140
- Yeah, no. Great, great.
- Let's talk tomorrow.

629
00:34:36,720 --> 00:34:39,199
You're not leaving?

630
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:42,199
I'm sorry. I just realised the time.

631
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,410
But look, leave Martha out,
feed her tonight

632
00:34:44,411 --> 00:34:46,079
and I'll be back to
check in the morning.

633
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,673
Was it the wine?
No, I know it wasn't the wine.

634
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:51,639
I know it wasn't my company.

635
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,840
Both were perfect. See you tomorrow.

636
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,411
- Beth?
- The CCTV is now reactivated.

637
00:35:09,412 --> 00:35:12,359
There is no evidence
that I was ever here.

638
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:14,140
Excellent.

639
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,771
So our 'Jack' of all trades
has got himself a bunker after all.

640
00:35:19,772 --> 00:35:20,799
Mm-hm.

641
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:24,380
An underground bunker is
the perfect place to stage a murder.

642
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:31,319
Now is there any way that
Jack Sallinger would be stupid enough

643
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,999
to write about suffocating
someone in a statue

644
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,086
and then actually do it in order
to prove a point to Sebastian.

645
00:35:38,087 --> 00:35:39,239
He's that stupid.

646
00:35:39,240 --> 00:35:41,820
- OK. So then why?
- Boredom.

647
00:35:42,240 --> 00:35:44,240
Fun. Notoriety.

648
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,280
- That would be...
- Ludicrous.

649
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,239
Impenetrable plot.

650
00:35:51,240 --> 00:35:53,089
The twist at the end of this chapter

651
00:35:53,090 --> 00:35:56,639
is more commonly seen in the work
of over-sexed high school students.

652
00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:00,520
- Whoa. Harsh.
- That's Sebastian's feedback.

653
00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:04,239
I had a history teacher
that used to mark essays like that.

654
00:36:04,240 --> 00:36:07,159
But I mean, that was a teacher,
not a friend.

655
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:11,440
- Can you imagine a friend...
- I know what happened.

656
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,679
Oh my! How she's grown.

657
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:29,199
I experimented with rye flour
due to its high amylase.

658
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,300
As you can see,
the results are impressive.

659
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,130
Well,
you're an expert after only one lesson.

660
00:36:36,240 --> 00:36:38,900
That's not intimidating at all!

661
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:42,171
So now that you know all my secrets,

662
00:36:42,172 --> 00:36:44,660
why don't you tell me one of yours?

663
00:36:45,333 --> 00:36:48,740
I noticed that your ventilation
systems are working.

664
00:36:49,666 --> 00:36:52,220
Jack, do you have a bunker already?

665
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:54,996
Once a cop, always a cop, huh?

666
00:36:54,997 --> 00:36:58,140
Oh, come on.
I won't tell anyone obviously.

667
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:00,840
I just wanna see it.

668
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:05,640
Bet it's incredible.

669
00:37:08,146 --> 00:37:09,940
Oh, you got me.

670
00:37:12,720 --> 00:37:14,771
It still needs some finishing touches,
but

671
00:37:14,772 --> 00:37:17,879
Sebastian was impressed
when I showed him.

672
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,620
Like you said, he was someone
who respected big ideas.

673
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,480
Oh my gosh. This place is incredible.

674
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,054
Well, this floor has six rooms,

675
00:37:31,055 --> 00:37:33,359
but ultimately will be another 20 rooms.

676
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,559
For your special guests.

677
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:37,441
I wouldn't wanna be down
here without good company.

678
00:37:37,442 --> 00:37:39,020
No, indeed.

679
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,519
We also have a lockdown feature
that secures the bunker

680
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:46,576
in case of attack
or a significant weather event.

681
00:37:55,146 --> 00:37:59,860
There we are. You and I, locked
away from the rest of the world.

682
00:38:00,472 --> 00:38:02,472
Well, isn't that fun?

683
00:38:03,619 --> 00:38:07,939
Uh, next level up will be
a swimming pool, rec centre.

684
00:38:07,940 --> 00:38:11,491
Level three is food storage
and the remaining floors,

685
00:38:11,492 --> 00:38:13,199
water filtration and med bay,

686
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,574
but they're just big concrete
spaces at the moment.

687
00:38:15,575 --> 00:38:17,119
Wow.

688
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,340
I bet that'd be a great place
to murder someone.

689
00:38:22,289 --> 00:38:25,999
That's, uh-That's...
That's pretty dark, Alexa.

690
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:30,340
Suffocating someone in a statue,
I mean, it doesn't get much darker.

691
00:38:33,007 --> 00:38:34,700
What are you talking about?

692
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:37,719
You killed Sebastian.

693
00:38:38,906 --> 00:38:40,906
Oh.

694
00:38:41,613 --> 00:38:44,461
Oh,
I didn't-I didn't pick you for crazy.

695
00:38:44,462 --> 00:38:46,780
Well, that was your first mistake.

696
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:49,458
I believe you drugged Sebastian

697
00:38:49,459 --> 00:38:52,660
during one
of your wine club sessions at his house.

698
00:39:08,479 --> 00:39:12,199
After you made the mistake of putting
the book away in the wrong place,

699
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:15,000
you led Sebastian out to your car.

700
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:17,971
Covered him up so there was no evidence
on your CCTV

701
00:39:17,972 --> 00:39:20,300
of him arriving here,

702
00:39:21,240 --> 00:39:24,780
and you could confidently hand over
the footage to the police.

703
00:39:26,020 --> 00:39:30,020
Once he was inside the bunker,
no one would ever find him,

704
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,100
because no one knows this place exists.

705
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,080
You encased him in concrete.

706
00:39:42,353 --> 00:39:44,353
And you watched him set,

707
00:39:45,692 --> 00:39:47,683
then painted it with rust paint

708
00:39:47,684 --> 00:39:51,340
to seal it and disguise
it as a sculpture.

709
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,159
Then you drove to the site
in the middle of the night.

710
00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:56,734
No one was around, and besides,

711
00:39:56,735 --> 00:39:59,919
people were used to seeing you
shipping materials back and forth.

712
00:39:59,920 --> 00:40:02,180
You'd been doing it for months.

713
00:40:04,293 --> 00:40:09,013
You knew a sculpture would put Ngaire
in the frame if the body was ever found,

714
00:40:09,014 --> 00:40:11,192
but that was just insurance.

715
00:40:11,193 --> 00:40:14,580
You placed your masterpiece
on public display.

716
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:16,719
But then...

717
00:40:16,720 --> 00:40:18,140
the flood.

718
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:23,079
Oh, you must be furious
when the statue dislodged.

719
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,771
I mean, it could have survived, but.

720
00:40:25,772 --> 00:40:29,159
God, it was just so poorly made,
I mean...

721
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:33,260
What did you do? Watch a YouTube
video on how to make a sculpture?

722
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:41,620
Oh, this is ludicrous.
I mean, this is...

723
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:45,340
- laughable.
- Like the plot of your novel.

724
00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:51,360
Isn't that what Sebastian said?
Ludicrous, yeah. Ludicrous.

725
00:40:53,173 --> 00:40:55,999
But you showed him.

726
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,681
I mean, really,
you showed him, didn't you?

727
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,239
This was almost
the perfect murder. Mm-hm.

728
00:41:02,240 --> 00:41:06,220
And it was a just punishment for
someone who would criticise your work.

729
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:10,919
You're an idiot if you think
anybody will believe any of this.

730
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,879
I'm not amazing at everything,
like you, Jack,

731
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,519
but I'm pretty good at
putting together a case.

732
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:17,811
You got conjecture,

733
00:41:17,812 --> 00:41:20,519
and I've got an
army of lawyers who will destroy you.

734
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:22,990
I'm sure the cops when they enter this
bunker,

735
00:41:22,991 --> 00:41:24,959
that they don't know exists,

736
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,479
will find all the evidence they need.

737
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:31,100
If you really think I'm a murderer,
why did you come down here?

738
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:34,420
You're in a prison no one knows about.

739
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:39,200
I have this new friend,
well, associate, Beth.

740
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:41,274
She follows me around everywhere.

741
00:41:41,275 --> 00:41:43,599
I cannot
shake her. She's upstairs as we speak.

742
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,820
Great. Well, she can tell them
where to pick up your body, then.

743
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:49,780
Jack.

744
00:41:53,279 --> 00:41:54,580
Jack.

745
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:57,320
You asked me this week,

746
00:41:57,840 --> 00:41:59,840
what's my price?

747
00:42:01,893 --> 00:42:03,893
To make this go away?

748
00:42:05,720 --> 00:42:07,980
Well, you know, I can give you
anything you want.

749
00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:12,079
Just name it.

750
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:14,253
I kind of want you to spend your entire
fortune

751
00:42:14,254 --> 00:42:16,220
on a global marine sanctuary.

752
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,000
All right?

753
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:23,420
But as we've discovered,

754
00:42:24,313 --> 00:42:25,940
I'm crazy.

755
00:42:40,013 --> 00:42:42,978
Oh, good. She got the sourdough starter.

756
00:42:42,979 --> 00:42:44,979
OK, let's move on in.

757
00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:47,080
Good luck getting him out of there.

758
00:42:47,081 --> 00:42:48,780
Always up for a challenge.

759
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:51,559
Here. You drive.

760
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:53,340
- Me?
- You.

761
00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:02,694
If this is what you based your survival
plan on,

762
00:43:02,695 --> 00:43:04,119
you might wanna reassess.

763
00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:05,626
It's OK, Chowder.

764
00:43:05,627 --> 00:43:07,420
They only eat people.

765
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:12,919
- Oh, hey!
- Hey.

766
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:14,759
We're just watching a zombie movie.

767
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,319
- It's so implausible.
- I don't know where to start.

768
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:21,095
Wait. You got Alexa to watch a
zombie movie? How did you do that?

769
00:43:21,096 --> 00:43:22,759
I called it research.

770
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:26,100
I'm indulging her because
she comes highly recommended.

771
00:43:26,720 --> 00:43:30,696
- You wanna watch this with us, Mads?
- Yeah. Go on.

772
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:35,759
Ooh. This is a good one. Nice choice.

773
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,060
Oh, thank you.

774
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:44,599
The picture of the killer,

775
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:46,959
- Lord Flight.
- Well, that makes things easier.

776
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:48,639
Todd Nicholson was found in the stall

777
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:50,199
with the horse standing over him.

778
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:51,828
There's no way Flighty
would've got hooves on him.

779
00:43:51,829 --> 00:43:53,159
Toddy had the measure of him, eh?

780
00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:55,199
We've come up with
an excellent cover story.

781
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:56,882
And if Todd threatened to go to the
police,

782
00:43:56,883 --> 00:43:58,319
that'll be reason to kill him.

783
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:00,799
- Anything to confess?
- But I've got nothing to hide.

784
00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:02,039
Looks like love to me.

785
00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,039
- You think it's a crime of passion?
- Jealous mare.

786
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:05,719
So, if you wanna arrest me,
you go ahead.

787
00:44:05,720 --> 00:44:08,479
Look, can we stop faffing
around or should I go?

788
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:09,820
Hyah!
