Original subtitles

The true pirates of the Caribbean were feared by all,

and the most terrifying of them all

was Francois Le Clerc.

Now, in the summer of 1563,

heading home from the Azores, Le Clerc and his crew

came across the Spanish galleon, San Cristobal.

But they soon found themselves fighting not

ordinary merchant seamen

but the personal guard of King Phillip II of Spain.

Sorry. Carry on.

Though he finally won the day

and found a huge shipment of gold,

Le Clerc took heavy losses and was himself badly wounded.

He was forced to take refuge here, in Sainte-Marie.

However, neither the treasure nor Le Clerc

was ever seen again.

Some people believe the treasure is still buried here,

somewhere on the island. The treasure is said...

...to be cursed.

Cursed by Le Clerc himself.

It is said that whoever disturbs the treasure that

bears his blood

will then join him...

...in hell.

Daniel!

Move!

No, no, no! Chris, Chris, it might not be safe!

Dan! Daniel, can you hear me?

Okay...

Ah!

All right. Chuck us down some rope!

-There's been an explosion

up in the rainforest,

in one of the caves.

One of the guys was trapped inside.

-Broken his arm, gone to hospital.

Treasure-hunters.

Please tell me you're not serious.

We've just been to the museum.

Wait! You don't think that maybe...

No! You're right! It could be the pirate's curse!

Or maybe they were blown up by a gang of tree pixies?

Okay, do you want us to come with you?

BOTH: No.

Look, no-one died.

We'll take care of it. You enjoy the weekend.

-Benjamin! -Dwayne!

Long time, no see, man!

You still driving the love wagon?

Yeah, she's not getting much action these days, though!

Ah, you really forget how beautiful it is up here.

-Mm.

-This explosion... -Mm.

You know what happened?

No, no. I heard it but I was a way away.

-Yeah.

They've been up here a couple of weeks.

I've been fixing the truck's air con unit and stuff.

Dwayne, erm, this is Daniel.

He was the one that got hurt.

I drove him to the hospital to get fixed up.

Er, look, do you mind if we do this in the camp?

I could use some painkillers.

Sure.

Dwayne, if you need anything, you know where I am, yeah?

So, tell me, what happened this morning?

Okay, so, I was packing up some of our equipment over there.

Mm

-I was having a shower. -I was writing up notes

in the tent. So, you really looking

for Le Clerc's gold?

-It's what we do. -Hmm.

Kind of.

It authenticated around 1700, so we felt it was

worth following up.

It didn't mention Le Clerc by name, but...

...when we found out it was Sainte-Marie...

I have to admit, we got very excited.

Hey, listen...

This explosion...

-No.

Seems pretty clear it was an accident.

Maybe it will teach you all to have a bit more respect

for the explosives you have on site.

-It's Camille.

Are you busy?

Since you ask, I am finally

addressing some of my audiovisual issues.

- Okay. Only, there's been a murder.

Up in the hills

I'll be there as soon as I can.

Merci.

-Merci. -This way.

Ah.

RICHARD: Ugh!

Who's this?

Dr Ian Parks. He was the team's geologist.

His body was found here just after 9 am this morning

by his colleague Daniel Morgan,

this is Daniel's tent.

A single gunshot to the chest, entered between third

and fourth rib,

no exit wound that we can see.

No witnesses, no-one heard a gunshot, and he was last seen

around 11.30 last night.

What's this?

It's a single-barrelled flintlock pistol.

It was being restored by Dr Parks,

so we think he was cleaning it when it discharged.

You're saying it was an accident?

Well, it's the only thing that makes sense.

Someone's been, er, burning some paper in here.

-Preserve it without disturbing it if you can.

-Yes, sir.

How do we know that he was restoring the pistol?

-Dwayne spoke to Mr Morgan about it yesterday, sir.

The explosion Dwayne and Fidel attended.

-Yes, sir.

One caught in an explosion, the other one shot dead.

I hope they haven't wasted any money on the lottery.

So, er...

...these are actual treasure-hunters,

is that right?

Well, sir, I'm afraid they are.

Do you believe they have a little bit too much time

on their hands?

So, if this wasn't Dr Parks' tent, what was he doing in here?

We've asked everyone that same question. No-one knows.

-Sure.

I don't think it was an accident.

-First, he was a clever man.

Only an idiot would clean a loaded pistol.

And secondly, if he was that stupid,

why isn't the cloth he was using to clean the gun

either on the floor beside him or in his hand?

I agree. And, if he accidentally

shot himself while cleaning the pistol,

why is there a bullet hole...

...in the tent?

What was he even doing in there anyway?

How the hell do I know

You two have been up to something for weeks.

I didn't realise we were under surveillance.

Liz has got a point, Dan. I've noticed it, too.

Maybe...you found something.

Like what?

-You tell us. -Ahem.

I'm, er, sorry for the death of your friend.

I wonder if you'd mind answering just a few questions.

-Not yet, miss,

but rest assured, we'll be leaving no stone unturned.

Er, yes, er...

Right, Mr Morgan, I understand it was you that

found Dr Parks this morning.

That's right. I broke my wrist yesterday in the explosion,

and didn't fancy sleeping in a camp bed last night,

so I got Benjamin

to drive me to the Bay Cove Hotel.

Who's Benjamin?

Benjamin Sammy. He lives down the mountain.

He helps out whenever we need a spare pair of hands.

Why not use your own breast? Er...

...vehicle?

The air con packed up. Benjamin was fixing it.

Carry on.

We left the camp about 11pm,

drove to the hotel, and Benjamin picked me up

this morning.

That's when I found him.

In my tent.

And you?

Er, we, the three of us, stayed up for a tipple...

Well, Chris and I did, Ian was teetotal.

Actually, it turned into a bit of a session.

Sorry...Are you saying that's why you didn't hear the gunshot

because you were intoxicated?

Well, I can't speak for Chris, but I was out for the count.

RICHARD: Can't even remember getting to bed?

Do either of you know why Dr Parks wasn't in his

own tent?

No. Hmm.

This...

...map...

This is what brought you here?

Yeah.

It was found on Pigeon Island, just off St Lucia,

an old pirate stronghold.

The idea was that whoever buried it

would remember the exact spot when they

came back to collect it.

And if they never came back?

Then the treasure stayed buried.

It's pretty much where we come in.

It's a big area, but we analyse soil

and rock samples,

that's where Ian came into his own.

Gold's inert, but not all treasure is going to be

exclusively gold,

and by testing the samples he could find traces

of other metals such as bronze and copper.

But you didn't find the treasure?

Nope.

We thought it could be in the caves under this land.

But now we'll never know.

Not after the explosion yesterday in the entrance

to the inner caves.

It's completely sealed off.

I see. Well, er, someone will come and take your statement

in full,

but, er, for now,

thank you for your time.

Oh, er, yes, I'm afraid we will have to ask you not to

leave the island.

Why?

We may need to talk to you again.

-No.

I'm saying we'd appreciate it if you didn't make any plans

to leave the island.

Now, do these people need permission to be up here?

Yes, Chief. The landowner is Joel Maurice, the house

we passed on the way up.

Good, well divide and conquer. You check the site for evidence.

Camille and I will start there.

Her.

-I just know.

Well let's arrest her right now. What do you suggest we...

-I'm not protecting her!

Just because she's attractive, doesn't mean she's telling

the truth.

Is she attractive? I...

Oh! You were ogling her like a schoolboy.

-I wasn't ogling. -Yeah, you were.

-I don't ogle. -You were!

That's ridiculous, I was just asking some

straightforward questions.

CAMILLE: Come on. Shut up!

Sorry.

Yeah, sure.

So what did your inspector say?

Does he think it was an accident?

Oh, I'm sorry, miss, but I really...

-Oh, sorry, I shouldn't really be asking.

-Yeah, no, it's okay.

Ian was cleaning the pistol though when it went off?

I'm really sorry, miss, but I can't talk about it.

Of course you can't.

But...

...if it did turn out not to be an accident,

I'm probably a suspect?

No.

So I'm not?

No.

Yes.

No. I don't know.

I mean I'm not sure we even have any yet,

so, you know.

It's Fidel, isn't it?

Er, me? Yes.

Is there a Mrs Fidel?

No.

Yes, there is, of course!

-We've got a baby. -Oh.

Anyway, erm, you know, it was really good talking to you,

but I must, I must go, you know. Work to do.

-I hope I didn't hold you up. -No, no, no.

You take care.

Bye.

Maybe they have found the gold and they're fighting

amongst themselves.

We've no proof they've found anything.

Agreed, but if they have found it,

it gives us three very clear suspects,

the other members of the group.

Someone else, not in the group, also discovered they'd found

Le Clerc's gold and wants them dead, so they can steal

it for themselves.

What do you want?

Detective Inspector Richard Poole,

this is Detective Sergeant Camille Bordey.

Of course I knew what they were after.

So you visited the camp?

Now and again, just to see what they were up to.

Up to?

Making sure that if they found anything,

they wouldn't forget to tell me.

I get half. That was the deal.

I see.

Can I ask where you were last night?

I was here.

Alone?

No.

I telephoned Beyonce,

she came over and we had a wild night of hot,

passionate sex.

I see, and this Beyonce can vouch for that, can she?

I can't believe you don't know who Beyonce is!

Why people can't just give a simple answer

to a simple question,

I'll never know.

Looks like he could use some money.

Stealing the treasure for himself could be

quite a motive.

That only works if we know for sure

they've found something.

And we don't.

A man shot by an antique flintlock pistol

is strange enough,

but the victim being found in the tent of a man

almost killed in an explosion on the same day?

So you think the killer failed to kill Daniel Morgan

in the explosion and came back later that night

to finish the job?

Which means Dr Parks was killed simply for being

in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Which of this lot is our killer?

Well, not Daniel, if he was the intended victim.

-We, er, we found some debris from the cave, sir.

-Excellent.

It looks like part of a detonator.

Check it for prints along with the pistol, would you.

-No there's nothing from the

camp or the surrounding areas.

Oh!

-Good afternoon, team. -ALL: Sir.

You're investigating the mystery of Francois

Le Clerc's missing gold?

RICHARD: Not exactly, sir.

We have a death that may or may not

be related in some way.

An explosion and a shooting?

Yes, that's right.

Accidental?

Well, it's a little too early to say for certain, but early

indications would suggest not.

You do know about the curse?

Yes.

Although for the time being I have decided to eliminate

all 400-year-old pirates from our enquiries.

I'm very pleased to hear it.

So, have we made any progress?

Well we were just reviewing the evidence when you came in.

Is there some problem, sir, or...

The legend of Francois Le Clerc brings a lot of tourists

to the island, inspector.

I'd appreciate you not doing anything to jeopardise that.

I'm not sure I understand, sir.

If it's a murder, then of course you must bring

the killer to justice.

Just don't do anything silly like proving Le Clerc

and his gold don't exist.

Or that he never came to Sainte-Marie after all.

Don't rock the pirate ship, sir.

That's exactly what I mean.

I'm simply asking that you be aware of the bigger picture.

The bigger picture, absolutely. We'll do our very best, sir.

Thank you.

Now, erm, don't let me hold you up.

-Carry on. -ALL: Sir.

Mark the commissioner down as a suspect, would you?

Bumping off people to boost local tourism.

Meanwhile, we must be thorough.

We can't assume that Dr Parks' death had anything to do

with this imagined treasure.

So, Dwayne, you'd better run background checks on everyone.

DWAYNE: Yes, chief.

RICHARD: Focus your efforts on Daniel Morgan first.

Who is he?

Why would someone want him dead?

Hello?

Liz?

Chris?

Agh!

What happened?

Drive me down, Benjamin, will you?

Daniel?

Where are you going?

Pathologist report's through and there are no surprises.

It's a single shot to the right kidney, stomach and intestines.

Either shock or internal bleeding caused his death.

Ballistics have matched the shot to the pistol.

Also the wound showed fibres that matched

the victim's clothing

and what seems to be strands of a cleaning cloth

with traces of a lubricant, polyalkylene glycol.

Right. That must have been used to oil the gun.

Right. And we're waiting on fingerprints from the pistol

-and the debris from explosive material found in the cave.

Dr Ian Parks is attached to Cambridge university.

Not so much as a parking ticket and nothing so far

to suggest why anyone would wish him any harm.

Elizabeth Curtis and Chris Winchester

seem clean enough too.

Both from wealthy families, both travel extensively,

nothing on the police computer.

Daniel Morgan?

A few minor convictions for theft,

two of those for religious artefacts.

There's also a note on his police file.

Just before leaving the UK to come here,

he was being investigated by an insurance firm.

-It seems he was hired to

reclaim gold bullion from a ship

that sank off the coast of France.

By the time Daniel and his crew got down to the wreck,

they claimed they couldn't find the gold anywhere.

The insurance company think he got to it first?

That's what they suspect.

But then, they would.

They lost millions on the insurance.

And here we are again talking about missing gold.

Yet that still doesn't mean they found the treasure,

does it?

Okay, I admit, it looks like he was a crook in the past

maybe he even stole the gold from that sunken boat.

That doesn't mean that's what this case is about.

I know what you're doing.

Who haven't we spoken to yet?

The Bay Cove Hotel duty manager and Benjamin Sammy.

Good.

When you were in the camp, er, did you see any arguments?

Erm, any hostility between them?

No, not really. Well, not until today.

Uh

Apparently this big branch nearly fell on him.

-I guess so.

-After it happened, he just wanted to get out of there.

Lunch time!

Aw, he's so sweet!

-No, haven't got round

to it yet.

Oh, what about Richard?

Thank you, Camille. So, how did they contact you?

I think Joel gave them my number.

We get about half a dozen wannabe treasure hunters

out here every year,

not that I'm complaining.

It keeps this little lot in food.

The usual story is they thrash about the rainforest

for a few weeks looking for pirate treasure and then

they go home.

Quite funny, really.

And what do you do for them exactly?

Erm, driving, finding supplies, food. Whatever they need.

Er, Daniel said you took him to the Bay Cove Hotel

last night.

Yeah, that's right. About eleven.

He said his arm was playing up and he'd kill

for a soft, clean bed.

Maybe not literally.

Hm! But you can't be sure he stayed there all night?

No, but he was there when I went back in the morning.

What about you?

After you dropped him off last night, did you come

straight home?

No. I drove to the animal sanctuary in Honore.

You know it?

Picked this little fella up.

They didn't think he'd make it through the night.

So I was here, nursing him with milk

every hour on the hour.

Are you saying you want to use a goat as your alibi?

Feeding Richard.

Ah, sir, we've got a visitor.

Someone tried to drop a tree on me.

-So we hear. -It was cut at one end.

It looked like it had been held up with a vine until

I was underneath it.

Damn near killed me! Then I got to thinking.

The explosion in the cave, Ian getting shot

in my bloody tent.

Whoever it is, they're after me, aren't they?

Why do you think anyone would want to kill you?

I don't know,

but you've got my passport and I can't leave the island,

so until you catch them, I demand police protection.

What have I missed?

Fidel, did you preserve the waste paper basket

and burnt paper?

Yes, sir.

Then I'm going to need you to get these items for me,

if you would.

Most of it you should be able to get from a decent

photography shop.

The rest...

...clothes line and pegs,

red light bulb.

Well, I'll leave that to you.

My house...in one hour.

I passed the animal rescue centre on the way here

and they confirmed that Benjamin Sammy

was there last night.

Right.

I also checked with the hotel duty manager.

No-one at the hotel saw Daniel Morgan again

between him checking in and checking out

the next morning.

Good work, Camille.

MAN ON RADIO: The last three overs,

two wickets in hand.

Have they done enough to win this...

Right, let's bring this back from the dead.

If you could just pass me those tweezers?

No, sorry, of course you can't. You don't have opposable thumbs.

That would be mad.

Like running a forensics lab in your kitchen.

Or talking to a lizard.

RICHARD: Camille?

Typical of her. No sticking power.

Uh, has it worked, sir?

Le Clerc's Treasure! PD46! Whoa, they found the treasure!

What's that?

Well, if I was a betting man, I'd say it looked like some

sort of map reference.

Find out where PD46 is, find the treasure.

So...it was about the gold after all.

Yes, quite possibly.

Now we have evidence, it does appear to be about the, um...

Gold. How was our visitor in the cells last night?

-Didn't get a peep out of him. -Mm.

Oh, you know what?

I've got all the treasure hunters' handwritten statements.

-We can find out who wrote this note.

-Good idea.

Has Fidel heard anything from the lab yet?

Actually, where is Fidel?

Yes, we've got the finger prints analysis back.

-All right. -Um...

No finger prints on the pistol, it was wiped clean.

But there were three prints from the detonator we found.

All belong to Daniel Morgan.

Why would he set explosives to blow himself up?

Okay, I know who wrote the note.

Dr Ian Parks.

-His handwriting's

pretty distinctive.

So, if Dr Parks found the treasure, then...

...maybe he was the intended target all along?

In which case, logic suggests the killer might be...

...Daniel Morgan.

First, he sets the explosives to make it look like he's been

caught in a rock fall,

giving him an excuse to check in to the Bay Cove Hotel.

Because if Dr Parks is killed that night...

We're going to think Daniel's the only person

who can't have done it.

Exactly. After Benjamin Sammy drops him off,

he leaves the hotel, goes back up to the clearing,

shoots Dr Parks.

So him coming here to claim that his life was in danger,

-Precisely!

Now all we have to do, is prove it.

Ah, Fidel. There you are.

Yes. What are all these?

Well, when the Chief found the map reference PD46,

I figured I'd try and find out where on the island

it referred to, right?

It couldn't have been on the treasure hunter's

own map, could it?

It doesn't have any grid references. So I went to

Honore Library.

-But, I'm so sorry, sir.

I've been through all these maps, and I mean all of them

and I can't find any kind of symbol,

landmark or reference

called PD, let alone PD46.

-Yes.

You worked all the way through the night?

-I'm getting the coffee. -Uh-uh-uh, no.

I'll get the coffee.

And Don't worry, Fidel.

The fact you couldn't work out where PD46 is shouldn't matter,

because we think we know someone who does.

Really

The murderer. Daniel Morgan.

Fetch him from the cells, would you?

We think Ian Parks found the treasure

and told Daniel Morgan,

who then murdered him so that he could keep it

for himself.

Hoping everyone would think it was an accident.

The pirate's curse. It all fits.

Um, Chief?

The ambulance is on its way.

It's too late.

Looks like an allergic reaction.

Swelling, blue tinge to the skin...

Look, it's an adrenaline pen.

So he should have a dog tag, or a bracelet.

RICHARD: Hmm.

"Medic alert, severe allergy to insect bites."

Anaphylactic shock.

Something has bitten or stung him, he had a reaction,

he used the pen, but it must have been too late,

or too little. Then he died.

Sir.

It's a kissing bug.

It hunts out warm-blooded creatures in the night

and sucks their blood.

You mean these things are just flying around, on the loose?

Don't worry, Chief.

They're no worse than any other things that suck blood at night.

Other things?

But if you've got the right kind of allergy,

the venom from a kissing bug can be fatal.

-You won't like it. -Try me.

The kissing bug is said to be the beetle

that Francois Le Clerc used on his flag.

Right, so, someone clearly wants us to believe

these are deaths brought about by a dead pirate's curse.

Fortunately, we're far too sensible to believe

such a thing.

Common sense tells us that strange as it may seem,

this is about four treasure hunters fighting over

their spoils.

And with two of them dead.

That leaves just two suspects.

Liz Curtis...

...and Chris Winchester.

We believe you found the treasure,

argued amongst yourselves, that argument turned to murder.

There were four, two are dead, that leaves you two

as our prime suspects. Did I miss anything?

I don't think so.

I've never heard anything so ridiculous in my entire life.

The only question remaining

is whether one of you worked alone, or if you're

in this together.

Perhaps you're lovers.

No! We're not...

I'm not a killer.

Did anyone else know about Daniel Morgan's allergy

to insect bites?

It wasn't a secret, we all knew about it.

Did you or did you not find the treasure?

No!

Well, we didn't.

What does that mean?

Me and Liz started to notice that Ian and Daniel were

up to something.

They were always huddled together talking,

but they'd clam up whenever we went anywhere near.

So you thought that maybe they'd found something?

Well, yes, it had crossed our minds.

Which would give you a strong motive to kill them both,

wouldn't it?

Have you got a problem with me?

Yes. I don't think you've been telling us the truth.

May I remind you both this isn't a fanciful

pirate story,

it's a murder enquiry.

LIZ: Look, this is stupid.

It doesn't matter anymore, anyway.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I have no interest

in finding the treasure.

All right? The truth is, I never had.

-I didn't come to Sainte-Marie

to hunt for treasure.

I was investigating Daniel Morgan.

-Yes.

Daniel Morgan is responsible for a very substantial claim

last year

and I'm part of the team investigating it.

Call my supervisor on that number.

He'll verify everything.

Thank you.

He confirmed everything.

She was sent here to keep track of Daniel Morgan.

Which means I was right.

-I told you she was

hiding something.

-Yes, yes, you did. -Say it then.

-That I was right.

-You were right. -Thank you.

-Please.

Okay, so we're being led to believe

there have been a series of accidents.

It started with an explosion,

then someone was supposedly killed while cleaning an

antique pistol,

then a falling tree.

Finally, a man known to have a severe allergy to insect bites

was bitten by a beetle while in a police cell.

All of these events happening between four people

within the space of 48 hours.

The odds against this sequence of events truly

happening accidentally

in that time frame are tens of millions to one.

-Agreed. -So we're left with two

possible explanations.

First, they are indeed the result of a curse left

by a one-legged pirate

400 years ago.

Or second, we have two murders, perpetrated

by a single assailant, or one or more people

working together.

So, who stood to gain the most from the deaths

of Dr Ian Parks and Daniel Morgan?

Well, whoever knew they'd found the treasure.

But that's a dead end, isn't it, Chief?

Seeing as young Fidel here pretty much proved

PD46 isn't on any kind of map.

Wherever the gold is buried, it isn't on Sainte-Marie.

Wait!

Dwayne, you're right.

That's exactly what Fidel proved.

There was a small plastic container

full of soil and rock samples, it's not here.

It wasn't there when I got back to the camp site.

Of course it wasn't.

Autopsy report, where is it?

Ha! It wasn't just Dr Parks in the wrong tent,

everything's wrong, it's all upside down.

Dwayne, Fidel, I want you to pick everyone up.

Well, everyone who's still alive anyway.

Liz Curtis, Chris Winchester, Benjamin.

I want everyone at Joel Maurice's house

in an hour.

In the words of our pirate brethren,

"We need to parlay."

Um, is this about the treasure or not?

Yes. And no.

Come on.

JOEL: Can you tell me what's going on?

I mean, why does everyone have to be here?

Because this is where it all began.

The land you own holds the secret that unlocks

this mystery.

I must say, this has been a tricky case from the start.

Firstly, because of the treasure.

How could the murder not be about it?

And secondly, because to begin with

we could never really be sure who the intended victim was.

Was it Daniel

Or was Dr Parks the target all along?

Then it struck me.

What if it was both?

Chris.

You said that Daniel and Ian were often huddled

together, conspiring.

Yes.

CAMILLE: So let's imagine, what if they discovered

the treasure...

RICHARD: And rather than share their findings with the rest

of the group,

they decided to keep it for themselves?

I knew it.

We found part of a detonator at the scene of the explosion,

covered in Daniel Morgan's fingerprints.

But why would Daniel want to blow himself up?

The key was to separate the facts and look at them

not together,

but individually.

First, why would Daniel want to set the explosives?

Well, seeing as they started a rock fall

which then partially sealed the cave,

maybe that's all he was trying to do.

So that's it! That's where the gold is, in the cave!

Will you please sit down and no, the gold isn't in the cave.

CAMILLE: But the fact that he was caught up

in the blast suggests

someone else set it off, before Daniel could get clear.

I hope you're not going to suggest it was me.

The moment we confirmed your story...

Yes, you're right.

It was unlikely you could be our killer.

Which meant we were down to only two suspects.

But without any prompting from us,

you told us about Daniel Morgan and Dr Parks'

secretive behaviour.

Why would the killer draw our attention to that?

So we're left with someone in financial trouble

who readily admitted he already suspected the victims

of trying to cheat him out of what was rightfully his.

Unless...

This isn't about the treasure at all.

As unlikely as that seems.

Because once you remove the tantalising appeal

of missing gold from the equation, then there could

be other motives.

Indeed, there could be a motive where in terms

of cold hard cash,

the killer gains absolutely nothing. Does he, Benjamin?

What?

RICHARD: It was you, wasn't it?

First, you attempted to murder Daniel Morgan

by setting off the explosives but failed.

You had no such trouble with Dr Parks who you

shot in cold blood,

before finishing the job you set out to do,

by murdering Daniel Morgan in a police cell.

And um, and empty out his pockets, would you?

You see, Benjamin of all the people in the camp

was most likely to get wind of what Daniel

and Ian were up to.

Once you knew their secret, you watched them.

And seeing Daniel set the explosives was too good

anopportunity to miss.

RICHARD: Although Daniel survived,

the fact you knew he was spending the night

in the Bay Cove Hotel

gave you the opportunity to come back for Dr Parks.

We checked. You left the animal sanctuary

shortly after midnight.

BENJAMIN: I was feeding the goat through the night.

It would've died otherwise.

RICHARD: Which is the most puzzling thing of all.

A killer who understands the sanctity of life.

If you missed one feed with your goat,

it was a risk worth taking, wasn't it?

You were often in the camp, so had ample opportunity

to steal the pistol.

This time there was no mistake.

Knowing that Dr Parks was trying to restore

the pistol,

by leaving it behind with a cloth,

you hoped it would appear there'd been a terrible accident

while the gun was being cleaned.

But you made one very simple mistake. Camille?

You cleaned the gun yourself, didn't you

We found traces of the oil you used,

both on this cloth and on the shot.

It didn't register at first. Why would it?

But, er, the oil we found wasn't gun oil, was it?

You used something else, didn't you? Polyalkylene glycol.

Most notably used for?

Air conditioning systems in cars, sir.

And we already know you were fixing

the air conditioning unit in the Land Rover.

First you attempted to murder Daniel Morgan and failed.

You then shot Dr Parks dead, but now, what to do with Daniel.

RICHARD: The little episode with the falling branch

was opportunistic and never likely to succeed.

It provided you with one more opportunity when

suspecting his colleagues,

Daniel asked you to drive him in to town.

First you had to make sure t hat Daniel's emergency

adrenaline pen was empty.

He'd only been on the island a few weeks.

Most of the time he'd been in the rain forest,

so only the three people he came with

and you would've known about his allergy to insect bites.

Your plan was surprisingly simple.

You had no way of knowing where Daniel would spend that night,

so you just made sure that wherever he was,

as soon as he sat down for his evening smoke,

he'd release the bug...

and with it, bring about his own death.

Potentially brilliant.

After all, it was indeed the kissing bug...

...that killed Daniel Morgan.

But, er, this cleverest of murders...

...will now prove your guilt.

There it is.

RICHARD: Because you had to steal Daniel's

lighter, didn't you?

It was the only way you could be sure

he would open the match box and release the bug.

And the beetle was perfect,

wasn't it? Because all along you've wanted people to think

this was all about Le Clerc's treasure, haven't you?

But it's got nothing to do with it, has it, Benjamin?

Because despite Daniel and Dr Parks' conspiring,

Francois Le Clerc's treasure was never found.

But I thought... -Shut up!

CHRIS: Okay, look, I don't get it.

If Ian and Dan didn't find the treasure,

why did he kill them?

Oh, Benjamin has a motive, it's just nothing to do

with Le Clerc's treasure, is it?

I believe we have enough physical evidence

to convict you of the murder of Dr Parks, but we both know

you're also responsible for the death

of Daniel Morgan.

So, um, I'll give you a choice.

Either you confess to both murders,

or in setting out my case against you,

I'll reveal your true motive. Understand?

And if I do confess?

Then the subject's closed.

You swear it?

Yes, you have my word.

And I dare say a confession will make the court more lenient.

All right then, I did it. I killed them both.

I shot Ian and I killed Daniel with the kissing

bug like he said.

Thank you.

Dwayne, Fidel,

read him his rights, get him to the station

and take his confession.

Yes, sir.

What about Le Clerc's bloody treasure?

Well, it's been hidden for the last 400 years.

Doesn't that rather imply that it's still out there?

-Somewhere... -Mm-hm.

-Mm-hm.

Well, Benjamin's confessed to both murders.

He says they treated him badly and he snapped.

He confessed, but I don't believe it.

Come on, Chief. What was his real motive?

-Sure. -Well, I'd forgotten

something very simple.

Dr Parks was a geologist.

We all got so carried away with the romantic notion

of pirate treasure, haven't we,

that we presumed PD46 had to be a local map reference?

PD is a chemical symbol, 46 is an atomic number.

Together they represent the thing

that Daniel and Ian found in the cave.

-I still don't get it. -Palladium.

It's used in every mobile phone and laptop in the world

and is vanishingly rare.

As such, it's one of the most precious metals on Earth.

I think that's what Daniel and Ian found

in those caves.

-Almost certainly.

And that's why Daniel tried to seal the cave

with an explosion.

Wanted to prevent any further exploration

till they could come back, maybe make Joel an offer

for the land. Benjamin didn't want

anyone else to find out what they'd discovered.

The Palladium would've been extracted using

an open cast mine.

It would have decimated the rain forest.

Benjamin loves that place.

RICHARD: When Benjamin overheard their plan

to seal the cave,

he decided to do the same thing,

but with Daniel in it.

-He murdered Ian Parks

and Daniel Morgan

so that their discovery would die with them.

CAMILLE: His motive wasn't greed.

He killed two men to stop his rain forest

being pulled down.

-But it's still murder. -RICHARD: Of course.

But so long as he goes to prison for it,

I don't see the need to pull down the jungle, as well.

Do you?

Now, anyone fancy a drink?

Try going left a bit.

Left a bit!

Ever wondered what makes our experts tick?

Oh, be still my beating heart. Fiona Bruce! Yes, yes! You...

-Oh. Ah...

-It's just Antiques Roadshow...

Here, in this room, I had Antiques Roadshow.

You're trying to watch English TV?

Is there any other kind?

Let me try.

-Oh, very well, thank you, sir.

Must be an expensive business, taking care of two women.

Yes, it is.

So if it's all right with you

and in light of your excellent work, on both this and every

other case

I've had the privilege to work with you on,

I'd like to put you forward to take your sergeant's exams.

Me

Well, thank you, sir.

You're very welcome.

-CAMILLE: Ready! -Got something.

-Perfect. -Ah.

Camille?

Camille!

What have you done to my TV

You can't stay in there all day.

Okay, I'm sorry.

I said I order you to come and put my television back

as it was.

I suppose you want to ogle that Fiona Bruce too?

-I told you, I do not ogle... -Yes, I've seen you ogling...

You don't even know who Fiona...

-You don't even know... -I can't hear you!

If you want...
