Charlie One to 912 rescue.

We've identified a heat
signature, over.

Charlie One,
what's your location? Over.

Our current position is
51 degrees, 31 minutes north,

zero degrees,
51 minutes west. Over.

That's Bryce Farm.

All right, let's go.
Reece, come on.

This way, this way.

It is something. Right.
She's definitely in there.

There's a heartbeat.
Reece.

Hello, lovely girl.

You've had your family
worried sick.

There. You got her?

Charlie One, subject
located unharmed. Over.

It's going to be tight
if you want to get changed.

What? You don't think
this is a good look?

That's up to you.
It's your award.

-Are you coming to this lunch?
- I don't think so.

Oh, go on.
Daniella's waitressing.

I help him find the dogs,

I'm not going to sit there
bigging him up.

All right. It's okay.

Hello! Kitty, kitty, kitties!
Kitty, kitty, kitties!

Mummy's home.
Hello!

Oh, look at you.

Are you greeting party?
A little greeting party.

Aren't you lovely?
Hey, darling.

Ooh.

Look what mummy's bought
for you, hmm?

Ooh.

There you go.

Don't you look handsome?

Hmm?

Okay, Frank. That's great.
Nice smile, Frank.

Yeah.
Just chin up a little bit.

Yeah. Perfect.
Great. Yeah. Lovely.

Are you serious?
- I am so sorry.

This is brand new.

I really am sorry.
I tripped.

It runs in the family.

What?
Being clumsy.

Are you talking
about my brother?

No, of course not. I just meant
what your mother's always...

You meant Edison.
His accident.

Come on, sweetheart.
Just... Just calm...

No, Mum.
Why are you defending him?

I'm not defending him.
- No, you are.

Okay, Daniella,
go and get some fresh air.

Oh, I'm really sorry
about that.

It's fine.
- Let me help you with that.

I said, I'm fine.
Thank you.

Daniella.
I said, go outside.

You okay?

Not really.

So sorry.
Can I... Can I help?

Excuse me,
but I just need to...

No, it's ruined.
Sure. Yeah. Thank you.

I'm really, really sorry.
Sh-She didn't mean it.

It was an accident.

Paddy!
Paddy.

Look, through the tunnel.
Through!

Paddy.
Through the tunnel.

Such authority.

Paddy's determined to enter.

Dog agility competition?

Well, it's for a good cause,
I suppose.

Then let's donate the money
and skip the humiliation.

I've had enough of that
for one morning.

Oh, forensics training
with Fleur?

Oh, she was in such
a bad mood.

Quit the dating apps,
apparently.

Sworn off men.

She should get a dog.

Less work and better
standards of...

hygiene.

No luck on that stain?

What? Yeah.
Uh, no.

H-Has Frank
not come back yet?

No. Should someone check
the gents? He's been...

Tai!

Tai, what's happened?

Sir. Frank Bailey, 47.

Private investigator,

specializes in missing
pet cases.

A pet detective?
- Mm. A very successful one.

He was here with his wife
collecting a local hero award.

Hello there.
How's it, um...

Stab wound to the neck.

Right.
- Medium-sized blade.

Dead less than an hour.

You want more than that?
You'll have to wait.

I'm still looking
for the weapon.

I've got multiple witnesses

inside that said that
Frank was at his table

until a few minutes
before his body was found.

So he was stabbed almost
as soon as he went outside.

Yeah. I assume.

There would drag marks
into the kennel.

Difficult to do that without
getting covered in blood.

Difficult, but not impossible
if you have something

to cover your clothes.
Are these his?

Yes.
Mainly camera equipment.

Well, find out
what's on there.

-Who found him?
- Tai Yang over there.

He's a delivery rider
who spotted the body

when he came to collect
a lunch order.

He's also
the victim's nephew.

The girl that he's with is
a waitress, Daniella Saunders.

Apparently, Frank had
an altercation with her.

Really?
Uh-huh.

They've both given
DNA samples

and agreed to be interviewed
at Daniella's home.

Okay. You said the victim
had a wife.

I told him
it would end like this.

Those people
who steal dogs are dangerous.

Do you think this is linked
to Frank's PI work?

His body was found inside
the kennel of the dog

we were searching for.
Yes.

I think it might
be connected.

The family that owned
this restaurant have

a Czechoslovakian Wolfdog,
Storm.

She's been missing
for four days.

Frank was working the case.

Did he have any leads?

Sorry, I... I wasn't
trying to be funny.

Uh, we went hard on social
media, press, posters.

There's so much money
in dog theft now.

There's organized gangs
involved.

Pet detection is quite niche.

How did Frank get into it?

He used to be in tech.

He launched an e-signature
app type thing.

I don't know how it works.

I just know that,
by the time I'd met him,

it had made a lot of money.

He was supposed to retire
after he sold the company.

Then our dog, Mabel,
she was stolen.

Well, no offense,
but the police

would have done more
for a stolen mobile phone.

-So he found her?
- Yeah. Eventually.

She was being used
for breeding

on a farm near Cambridge.
It went in the local paper.

Some other people
started to ask for help.

It just went from there,
really.

Was there anyone outside
of his PI work

that Frank had
a problem with?

No.

He had a...

a feud with our next door
neighbor, William Fleming.

He's getting quite old.
He's getting slightly...

But he's harmless.

What about your
relationship with Frank?

Were you happy?

We were just...

normal.

I think.

I loved him.

Do you know why he left
the restaurant?

No. No, I thought
he'd gone to the loo.

We heard that Frank had
an argument

with one of the waitresses.

He was a bit offhand
when she spilled

some food on me.
It was nothing.

Look, I know that you need
to tick your boxes or whatever,

but Frank's body
was found inside Storm's kennel.

If you want to find
Frank's killer,

you need to find that dog.

Take it back.
Can I see that again?

So he went out the back door
into the car park.

We don't have any coverage
out there, I'm afraid.

It's a lot, you know,
living next door.

This is our home.

I'm okay.

You didn't see or hear
anything unusual?

No, we were short-staffed.

We were both dashing around.

You ran this place together?

It feels like it sometimes,

but this is Eshani's thing.
I'm a mortgage broker.

And you own Storm, the dog
Frank was searching for.

Is that right?

Can you imagine what our kids
are going through?

We did report it
to the police, but...

Was Storm taken
from the kennel outside?

No. From the cemetery.

I usually pop back
and walk her in my lunch break.

There was a noise
from the bushes.

She ran towards it,
and the next thing I knew,

she was gone.

It wasn't your fault.
- It happened on my watch.

That's why I agreed
to use Frank.

It was awkward, obviously.

Kim wasn't happy,

but under
the circumstances...

Sorry. Um...

I assumed somebody'd
already told you.

I'm Frank's ex-wife.

W-We weren't even close.

It's... It's just
the shock of it.

I... I thought he was still
alive, so I tried to help him,

but...

He was still warm.

Had your uncle fallen out
with anyone?

I don't think so. I...
I mean, he argued with Kim,

like a lot, accusing her
of cheating and stuff, but...

I think that was
just their thing.

I moved out in the end.

So you used to live
with Frank?

Only for a month.

I moved to Midsomer
to be with Daniella.

Then the neighbor
let me rent his caravan.

William Fleming.
- Yeah.

Did Kim tell you about
the dog poo wars?

I heard there was a feud.

It was about dog excrement?

Williams got this
really nice garden.

He's obsessed with it.
But he's going nuts

because Frank's dogs
keep getting in.

He's a sweet old guy,
though, isn't he?

We're friends
with his grandson, Reece.

Are you aware of Frank having

a disagreement
with anyone else?

So, obviously,

I guess people have been
talking about earlier.

I was the waitress for his
table, but things got kind of...

Um, Madeline Saunders.
Hi.

I'm Daniella's mum.
I'm sorry to interrupt,

but I was there
when she got a bit upset.

It was a misunderstanding.

He was asking me.

I know, I just want to make
sure they know, that's all.

You've never been
in any trouble.

She's a straight-A student,
a place at medical school.

'Cause there's never been
a killer with good A-levels.

Daniella.

I'm not going to med school.

Not this year, anyway.

I would like to hear
from Daniella if possible.

He said something
about my brother, Edison.

Or at least I thought he did.

Four years ago,

when he was hiking
near some cliffs,

he was trying to take a photo
and he tripped.

He died.

So, when I tripped over,
I thought that Frank

was making fun of him.

I went outside to calm down.

Did you see Frank
out there or hear anything?

I was at the front
by the parasols.

I had my music on.

Daniella, this is the time
to speak up.

If you were upset,

if the argument
carried on outside.

My daughter is not a liar.
- I am actually.

Sometimes.

But not about this.

Eshani Hughes divorced Frank
12 years ago

after he had
an affair with Kim.

Frank's wife was originally
the other woman.

So our pet detective wasn't
just left in a dog kennel.

He was left in a dog kennel
belonging to his ex-wife.

If the killer put the body there
to send a message,

then it must
have been planned.

They knew Frank was going
to leave the restaurant.

Or they lured him out there.
Any messages on his phone?

No. Nothing to imply
that he was lured.

But he did have his satnav open,
and he'd entered this address.

That's here.
Mm.

Why would he be going
to Madeline Saunders' house

when Madeline and Daniella
were both at the restaurant?

Should we go back in
and ask them?

No. Let's do some
more digging first.

Get the kitchen staff to check
if they're missing any knives

and ask forensics
to give the once over

to any knives they do have.
- Sir.

He was talking to me!
- I didn't butt in.

I just wanted him to know
what was going on.

Well, he didn't need to know.

Dad?
Dad, can you help me?

Hold on, Zadie,
I'll be out in a second, okay?

Mm. Another beer?

Oh, please.

Is this, um, dog agility
thing that Betty saw

run by Madeline Saunders?

Yeah, she's the woman we use
for Paddy's obedience classes.

The one who made you cry?

They were tears of pure
frustration.

He's a delinquent.

Well, just be extra careful
on walks, okay?

There have been a few
dognapping cases.

Really? Round here?

Yes. So you stay close,
all right.

You might be a delinquent,
but you're our delinquent.

Oh, what's this?

We can do this.

No, Toronto.
- No.

Why not?
- No, because I want to go over there.

Yeah, but we can get there
if we go this way.

It's getting late, isn't it?

I told Tai
he could stay over.

You know the rules.

It's okay.

Was Daniella having a listen?

Uh, yeah.
Do you want to...

Anytime.

You know that.

There he is.

Well done, Yarra.
Well done.

Right. So if you
could all pick

a piece of equipment,
and then...

Well, off you go.

Madeline. Hi.

I'm giving these out.
Could you put some up?

Yeah, absolutely.

Charlie. Come on.
Good boy.

And then, perhaps people
will listen to me

about the importance
of recall training.

Storm was stolen.

Had nothing
to do with her recall.

I'm sorry, Eshani,

but a dog that stays close
can't be stolen.

I'll do what I can to help,
though, of course I will.

Come on.

Sir.

These were taken
on Frank's camera 24 hours

before he was killed.

Do we know who she is?
- Not yet.

Well, judging from that,
we need to find out.

Did you check if anyone
at the restaurant

had been in trouble before?

Tai Yang was on the database.

Anonymous allegation of drug
dealing earlier this year.

But no charges?
- There was no evidence.

There's a lot on this
neighbor feud, though.

Frank and Mr. Fleming
accusing each other of theft,

trespass, criminal damage,
dangerous dog offenses.

In the end, they were
referred to arbitration.

And, also, Mr. Fleming has
a caution for a pub brawl

that happened years ago.
Nothing to do with Frank.

Sounds like you need to pay
Mr. Fleming a visit.

Dr. Perkins.
Flying visit.

I'm going to disappoint you,
I'm afraid.

Never.

The lab is busy,
so DNA will take a while.

Cause of death, as suspected,
was the visible stab wound.

Hit the carotid artery,
so death would have been speedy.

You're looking
for a fixed blade,

20 centimeters, maybe.
Kitchen knife territory.

No missing knives
from the restaurant.

I'll... call you
when I have more.

Or just if you need a chat.

Oh. I-I mentioned to Sarah
that you seemed a bit...

A bit... what?

She had a good idea,
actually.

She thought
you should get a pet.

Wow. That's extraordinarily
patronizing.

One bad date does not make me
some lonely old spinster.

I'm sure she didn't mean
it like that.

If you were going to get a pet,
what would you get?

I'm 100% a cat person.
- Really?

Mm-hmm.
- I'd have put money on you being team dog.

Hmm. I get that.

Dogs are loyal, enthusiastic,
good companions.

But studies suggest that
cat people are more intelligent.

Exactly. That's why I thought
you'd be a dog person.

They get in over there
and cause mayhem.

But when I complained,
well, it was all out war.

He even trained
his dogs to sh...

do their business on my lawn.

It went
to arbitration, right?

Well, Frank had to pay
£500 compensation.

Oh, well,
look how he paid it.

Good, eh?

Dumped it on dad's doorstep
in a wheelbarrow.

Then he tried to get away
with a land grab.

What do you mean?
This.

He was ordered
to erect a fence,

a new fence, but he did it
while I was away last weekend.

So when I came back,
he put it up at the wrong angle.

The way he'd done it,
he got five feet extra garden.

Where were you yesterday
lunchtime?

Now, wait a minute.
I didn't do anything.

I was going to confront him,
but he was with his fan club,

rescuing some dog
from a hole.

So I decided to wait.

So you were where
around 2:00 PM?

He was here.
I cooked his lunch.

Everything okay?

Police about Frank.

You both live here
with William?

No. We've got a house
up in the village.

I own the garden center.

Green fingers runs
in the family?

No, just looking for a way
of getting out of the rat race.

So we've got the business,
and we do holiday lets

with the caravan
and the narrow boat.

Which Frank complained about.
- Reece Fleming, right?

Your name came up
in a list of people

that volunteered with Frank.

Yeah, yeah, but only
'cause her mum made me.

I work for Madeline
with the dog training,

so she got me to sign up,
despite Frank.

Not a fan?

He was bullying
an old man, so...

I'm not going pretend it was
nice just because he's dead.

Sorry, Tai, but I'm not.

We've logged any
reported sightings,

but it's been five days now.

I think she's been sold on.

There were some photos
on Frank's phone

of this woman.

That's Lorna McIntosh.

Frank was investigating her
for a cat seduction.

Cat seduction?

Enticing other people's cats
into her home

and keeping them there.
It's theft, essentially.

She's hardly a killer, though,
despite the rumors.

Which are?

Oh, wait, it's just a joke.

People say that she fed
her husband to the cats.

Apparently she was married
to a professor.

Her neighbor said the post
still arrives for him,

but nobody's ever seen him.

Right.

Yeah, it looks like Frank
put Madeline Saunders' address

into his satnav
yesterday afternoon.

Do you know why
he might have done that?

He must have wanted
to look for evidence

while they were both out.
- Evidence of what?

Frank noticed a pattern.

All of the dogs
stolen recently,

they were all clients
of Madeline.

Yeah, she's got
pretty strong opinions

when it comes
to dog behavior.

As in,
any problem with the dog

is actually a problem
with the owner.

Frank wondered if she was taking
the dogs, but not for money.

To rehome them
with other families?

That was his theory.

Did Storm's owners
use Madeline?

Yeah, because of her barking.

Madeline thought it was

because they weren't
giving her enough exercise.

Are you aware that someone
used your home computer

to research divorce
lawyers last week?

I'm sorry.
I thought we were talking...

Were you aware of it?
Yeah.

Yeah, it was me.

I was angry
when I first found out

that Frank was helping Eshani.
I got over it.

Because she's his ex-wife.

He was to have zero contact.
That was our deal.

But you were all
at her restaurant.

Yes, I know.
"The Gazette" booked it.

Was there still something
between them?

No.

Briefly, they rekindled.

Or whatever it is
you want to call it.

Not long after
Frank and I were married.

That was over a decade ago.
He hasn't spoken to her since.

And then, suddenly,
she's his new client.

Like I said, I got over it.

There is something that I wanted
to mention, actually.

Frank's solicitor phoned
and his nephew, Tai,

the one that found him,

he's entitled to 50% of
Frank's estate when he turns 21.

Is this something
Frank discussed with you?

I think he tried to.
He just wasn't very clear.

Probably knew how I'd react.

What do you mean?
- Well, he told me

that he wanted
to leave something for Tai,

and did I mind?
I said "No, of course not."

But I thought we were talking
about a-a flat deposit

or something.
Not half.

It must have been
quite a shock.

I might have to sell
the house to pay his share.

Has made me reflect
a bit though.

On him moving to Midsomer
to be with Daniella.

I mean, it's a bit unusual, no?
To move halfway

across the country
to be with some girl

that you met in the pub
on Christmas Eve.

You think Tai killed his uncle
in order to inherit?

I mean, I c...
I can't...

I can't think like that.

But at the same time, it's hard
not to think like that.

Tai Yang is living
next door, right?

Yeah. He's there now.
- I need to speak to him.

Have you seen this from the
editor of the "Causton Gazette"?

Oh, tell them
no comment for now.

No, no, no.
She said that she received

an anonymous letter last week

telling her to look into
nondisclosure agreements

at Frank's old
software company.

He was issuing
gagging orders. Why?

Don't know yet, but he's
obviously got something to hide.

Look into it.
But I need you to go here first.

It's the woman from the photos.
Her name's Lorna McIntosh.

You did say you're
a cat person, right?

Coming.

Can I help you?

I just wanted to say...
sorry.

About Frank.

About everything.

Look, I know I've
no right to ask this, but...

I've got two kids at home
sobbing their eyes out.

You want me to keep looking?

You must know how
Frank did it.

Are you there now?

Yeah, I'm on my way.

DCI Barnaby.

We've already spoken
to the police.

Is Tai still here?

Down there. Why?

I need a quick word.

Are you okay?

Hay fever.

Sorry. Where?

Half?
As in half of everything?

On your 21st birthday.

That's the week after next.

You didn't know?

But you're aware how much
your uncle sold his company for?

What are you asking me here?

You were covered in his blood.
- 'Cause I tried to help him.

I had no idea about his will.

A man with no children,
no other nieces or nephews.

Yeah, maybe I'd get something,
but not half.

No, no.

Stay there, stay there.

Charlie. Charlie.
You stay.

Good. Good Charlie.

Sorry.

Uh, there you go.

Ah. Thank you.

And you don't have to
shut them in the kitchen.

I don't mind.

Not everyone appreciates
the full clowder.

Clowder?

The collective noun for cats.

Hmm. How many do
you have here?

Oh, it varies.

They all belong to you?

You don't own a cat.
You simply borrow

their attention
for a short while.

Right. It's just that
some of your neighbors

have said that your cats are,
in fact, their cats.

That's absurd.

Do you feed other
people's pets?

If I see that an animal
is malnourished, I put food out.

Of course I do.

It's just that at least
three local families

have asked you
to give their pets back,

and you've refused.

Cats choose their people,
not the other way round.

But if I was made aware

that a family was
missing their animal,

I would reunite them.
That goes without saying.

Hmm.
Uh...

Is this really
a police matter?

Oh, potentially.

Where were you around
2:00 PM yesterday?

I was here, alone.
Why?

Is this you?

Indeed it is.

Can you tell me what's
happening in this photograph?

A... A vulnerable woman

is exercising her
right to self-defense.

You're threatening
the photographer?

I-I was minding
my own business

when suddenly there's a man
in the garden with a camera.

Hmm. Well, the man
who took this photograph

was gathering evidence
about the kidnap of local cats.

He was a private investigator.
Frank Bailey.

Well, yesterday afternoon,
he was killed.

Stabbed in the neck.

I'm sorry he lost his life.

But if he made a habit
of this kind of thing,

I'm not entirely surprised.

Hey, I decided
to finish early today.

Well, I say finish.
I just sort of gave up, really.

Are you okay, Eshani?

Right. We have to go
to the police.

No. Hold on.
He says...

No, the police need
to see this right now.

Hello.

Yeah, the solicitor I spoke
to earlier, your colleague.

He said it takes a while for
the inheritance to come through,

but is there any way
I can get some now?

Like today.

Sir, I've just been
to the spot

where Aden said
that Storm was stolen

and Father Hinton was there.

Yeah. He said that he saw
Frank and Aden

arguing by the cemetery
gates on Monday afternoon.

Now, he couldn't hear
what they were saying,

but he felt,
from their body language,

that it looked like Aden
was... was pleading with Frank.

There's more to this
than a missing dog, sir.

No. Frank knew me.

He knew I could never
harm an animal.

His theory was that you steal
the dogs because you care.

You want them
to have better lives.

I've been tempted,
believe me.

They're intelligent
creatures.

Paddy!

Paddy!
- Paddy!

Paddy!
- Paddy!

I can think
of some exceptions.

These are animals that can
keep a blind person safe.

Or spot that a person
is about to have a seizure.

My Labrador is being trained
to sniff out bowel cancer.

So if a client gives it
five minutes on a lead

and wonders why it has
behavioral problems,

then, yes, I do feel
like taking it away.

But I don't.

Where were you
when Frank left the table

at the restaurant?

Sitting with the journalist.
I didn't move.

Ask anyone.
Are you accusing me?

I'd like to know more about
your dealings with Frank.

Were you friends?

Work friends.

Well, personally,
I-I liked him.

But it was a bit tricky
with everything with William.

The neighbor feud,
why would that affect you?

My son,

Edison, was an organ donor,

and the only good thing
to come out of his accident

was Reece over there.

He'd been on the transplant list
for over a year,

and then Edison's
heart saved him.

Reece has your son's heart?

Yeah. He extended
the lives of five people.

Reece was one of them.

You must be extremely proud.

He'd just finished his
third year at medical school

when he died.

So he was always
going to end up

helping people
one way or another.

And you're close to Reece
and his grandfather now?

The whole family.

They're the reason
we moved to Midsomer.

When the transplant coordinators
put us in contact,

we just felt right.

And what about your
daughter's boyfriend, Tai?

What do you know about him?

Enough to know
she deserves better.

Well, not... better.
I don't mean to sound...

It's just that she worked
so hard for those grades,

and now he wants her
to go round Canada with him.

She'd be throwing
it all away.

Do you think Daniella
was the only reason

he came to Midsomer?

Is there something I need
to know about Tai?

You have to tell me.

If he's a...

danger to my daughter.

Did he do this to Frank?

Five grand in cryptocurrency
for the safe return of Storm.

She wants to use our savings.
- Don't do that.

If it gets her back?

How do we even know
it's for real?

There's a chance that we can
trace where this came from.

But it says we have to pay
by tomorrow

if we want
to see Storm again.

Leave it with us.

But in the meantime,
I did want a word.

Perhaps in private?

We don't have secrets.

Mm.

It's about a conversation
you had with Frank the day

before he was murdered.

A witness saw you
in the cemetery.

You were pleading with him?

I spoke to him,
yeah, but I wasn't pleading.

I told him to be professional
with his Eshani.

You what?

I didn't want him playing
the hero, taking advantage.

Because if he did manage
to get our dog back,

I'd obviously want
to run off with him?

You got back together with
Frank after your marriage ended,

is that right?

Yeah.
That was 10 years ago.

And it was a mistake,
believe me.

Did you arrange
to meet Frank?

No.
I just bumped into him.

In the cemetery?

It's where Storm went missing.
I was retracing my steps.

Look, no one was happy about
being in touch with Frank again,

but he was the best person
to get Storm back,

and that's all we care about.
We just want her home.

It's okay.

Oh, sorry we're later
than last night.

Good night?

I've deleted the dating apps.

I'm going to get a pet.

Hang on. When I suggested
that you said it was...

Oh, Fleur thinks
it's a great idea.

And to test drive
dog ownership,

I'm taking you
for a walk this week.

Walkies!

He'll come round.

He was found by William Fleming
just after 9:00 AM.

Electric dog training collar.
Banned in the UK.

They usually emit a low-level
electric shock using batteries,

but this one
has been tampered with.

It was wired up to the mains?

Looks like it.

Electric burns on the neck.

And those scratch marks?
- Probably defensive.

So he was trying
to claw the collar off.

He knew what was happening.

Given the degree of rigor,

I would usually say he'd been
dead for at least eight hours.

But with electrocution,
the violent muscle contractions

cause rigor to set in earlier,
so it could be closer to four.

Giving us between 2:00 AM
and 6:00 AM.

Roughly.

I'll let you know
when I have more.

Go on, after you, sir.

Mind your head.

Okay. Uncle and nephew killed
two days apart,

both involving
some sort of pet paraphernalia.

We need to find out if Tai was
involved with Frank's PI work.

We're still treating him as
a suspect in his uncle's murder?

We can't rule him out.
He was covered in his blood.

And Frank's death
was going to make him

a very wealthy young man

if he made it
to his 21st birthday.

Or, assuming
that Tai was innocent,

he turned up moments
after Frank had been stabbed,

and maybe
he witnessed something.

Hmm.

Look at this.

It's been ripped off,

presumably how
the killer gained entry.

Then why isn't there evidence
of a struggle inside?

You'd think smashing the door
would alert Tai to an intruder,

wake him up if he was asleep,

and then, surely,

he'd fight back to stop
the collar going on.

Hmm. Unless the door was smashed
after the event.

Which the killer would
only do if...

They wanted to disguise
the fact that Tai let them in.

Or that they had
a set of keys.

How long had Tai been renting
the caravan from you?

Since Easter.

He said he wanted
to save some money.

He wanted to go traveling.
He had all sorts of plans.

Did anything change with him
over the past few weeks?

Any unusual visitors?
No, no.

I mean, his girlfriend
had come to see him.

And my grandson, Reece.

And were you here last night?
- I was in bed.

You didn't see
or hear anything at all?

His bedroom's at the front.
He wouldn't have heard anything.

You all right, Dad?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm fine, I'm fine.

Police behaving themselves.

Have you been drinking,
Mr. Fleming?

No. Just don't want you
interrogating him.

Who has keys to the caravan?

Well, me, obviously.
And you've got one, haven't you?

And we keep a spare
under a rock.

And...

I believe they've actually
got one next door

from before we fell out.

Yeah.

So, well, I'm not sure
if there's been an error

or I'm just looking
at the wrong thing,

but we are definitely
not overdrawn.

I'm sure.

I mean, should I have
security or something?

It's like they're working
their way through the family.

We still don't know
why Tai was killed.

Did he ever help out with
any of Frank's investigations?

No, he wasn't interested.

But he was found wearing
a dog collar, right?

They have to be connected.

There are other
possibilities.

Did you ever see evidence of Tai
using or dealing drugs?

No, not at all.

He was due to turn 21
in a couple of weeks,

but as he's died
before reaching that age,

he won't become eligible
for his inheritance.

You won't have to worry
about selling the house

or splitting the estate
after all.

And your logic
is what exactly?

What, that I killed him
before he could inherit?

It would be helpful to know
where you were overnight.

Asleep.

Is there any way that you can
prove that you were at home?

My husband has been
dead less than 48 hours.

I was in bed alone.

He had a delivery shift
on his bike last night.

Then he was going to meet us
in the park.

But he texted.

He said he was going
straight home.

And when you say "us"...

Me and Reece.
We were having some beers.

She was home by 10:45.
Reece dropped her off.

Not that you're keeping tabs.

Daniella, did Tai
tell you anything

about finding Frank's body

that he might not have
shared with us?

No.

It's possible that he saw
something and that

that's what got him killed.

So if there's anything
at all.

There isn't.

Were you two getting on okay?

We were fine.

Better than fine.
He was like...

He was my best...

Oh, sweetheart.
- No, you don't get to do this!

You did everything
you could to undermine us.

That's not true.
- Mum!

You reported him to the police
for dealing drugs.

That came from you?

Tai... loved Daniella,

I'm sure he did,
but he could be controlling.

He gave her these packets
of white powder

to look after for him,

and luckily, I found them
and I flushed them away.

Those weren't Tai's.
They were mine.

He just took the blame
when you found them.

Daniella!
She's upset.

If anyone was a bad
influence, it was me.

They were my drugs.

Think about
what you're saying.

They won't let you be a doctor
if you have a criminal record.

That's a good thing,
then, isn't it?

Because Edison is the one
who wanted to be a doctor,

not me!

She's angry.
She's impulsive.

You can imagine how that row
with Frank could have escalated.

You think she snapped?

She grabs a knife on the way
out of the kitchen,

follows Frank out, and then Tai
turns up and witnesses it.

He covers up for her
to begin with,

but then maybe Daniella and Tai,
they fall out.

He's going to talk.
- It's a credible scenario.

Let's see if Reece knows anything.

He's friends
with both of them.

What's all this
from the "Gazette"?

Oh, I haven't seen that yet.

I asked the editor to send
over everything that she had

on gagging orders
at Frank's old software company.

Well, she certainly
delivered.

She says two lawsuits
were started against Frank

and then suddenly dropped,

presumably because he paid
to make them go away.

The first litigant is one
Perry Fleming.

William's son?

He apparently spent
six years employed

as Frank's office manager
before trying to sue him.

Somewhat unfortunate
he forgot to mention that.

Look who the second
litigant is.

"The future
of digital encryption.

Professor Lorna McIntosh."
That's our cat lady.

So she isn't married
to Professor McIntosh.

She is professor McIntosh.

Yeah, I worked for him.

A long time ago now.

And you didn't feel the need
to mention this to my sergeant?

Nobody asked me
for my employment history.

You tried to take
legal action against Frank.

Why?
Someone had to.

The whole environment
in that place was toxic.

What did he do
to you specifically?

Well, let's see.
Outed me to clients.

Humiliated me in front
of me colleagues.

Constant homophobic remarks,
banter, as he called it.

So you were suing
for constructive dismissal?

I wanted to.

But Reece was waiting
for his heart transplant,

and things with my ex, Noah,

well, that was all
falling apart.

In the end, it was just
easier to take the money

and sign the NDA.

Frank paid you off.

I needed to move on
with my life.

-And did you?
- What do you mean?

Well, Frank forced you
out of your job,

but he was still living
next door to your father,

bullying him in his own home.

It seems like you couldn't
get away from him.

I don't know where
you're going with this, but...

Now Frank is dead,
and the person

most likely to have
witnessed his murder

is also dead
on your father's property.

Nothing to do with me.

And the letters
to the local paper?

What?

Sending complaints about
Frank's local hero award.

Hardly the action of someone
who's moved on.

I don't know what you mean.

Really?
Because those letters

referred to the nondisclosure
agreements.

How many people
knew about those?

I did.

Bah, it made me sick.
Calling him a hero?

I wanted people to know
what he was really like.

And I don't care.
I'll say it.

I'm glad he's dead.

But that doesn't mean
either of us killed him.

It was another life.

Can you put it away, please?

I looked you up online.

You developed
encryption software,

lectured on cyber security.

But then you left academia to
help Frank launch his company.

What... What did you do
for him, exactly?

Come here, bunny.
Do you want a cuddle?

Yes?
Is it time for a cuddle?

Hmm?
Professor McIntosh?

I wrote encryption algorithms
for identity verification.

Uh, when you sign
something online,

you need software
that will keep

that signature secure
and legal.

That's what I was working on.

Frank turned it into an app.

Right. So you were the technical
brains behind Frank's startup.

But less than a year
after this photo was taken,

you tried suing Frank.
What happened?

I loved that company.

The idea of building
something from scratch.

So I didn't want to admit
what was going on there,

who he was.

Did Frank do
something to you?

Not me.

Well, not to start with.

Perry Fleming?

Frank would humiliate him
in front of the entire office

and then pretend
it was all a joke.

We have it on record
that you and Perry

started legal action
against Frank,

but then you both withdrew.

I tried to stand up
for Perry,

but once I did,
there was a target on my back.

Did Frank bully you out, too?

If I stayed,
it would be hell.

He made that quite clear.

And so...

You didn't want
to go back to academia?

Oh, no, no, I did,

but... but everything
with Frank left me...

I don't know.

I've been struggling.

With people.

Cats are more
straightforward.

Oh, I know
what they all say about me.

The crazy cat woman thing.

But if it keeps people away,
then fine.

I'm not crazy.

I just want to be left alone.

When I asked you yesterday
about Frank,

you concealed the fact
that you knew him.

Are you having a lovely cuddle?
Are you enjoying it?

You... You deliberately
withheld information.

Are you?
Oh, you're beautiful.

Oh, you're my little beauty.

I can't get
a hold of Reece Fleming, sir.

I've left a message.
Okay.

A pet detective stabbed
in the neck

and left inside
the kennel of the dog

he was trying to find.

Who belongs to his ex-wife.

And now the murder
of his nephew,

who may or may not have
witnessed his uncle's death.

And there's something
about Aden's encounter

with Frank in the cemetery,
something he wasn't saying.

See what you can
dig up on him.

Hmm.

How does that link into Tai?

I don't know.

There are other possibilities.
Frank's wife, for one.

We know that she was
contemplating divorce.

And the fact that Tai
didn't live

to see his 21st birthday
saved her inheritance.

You always say look
for the simplest explanation.

I'm a simple man.

But that's Daniella, surely

She had an argument
with Frank moments

before he was killed.
We know that

she went outside, passing
a kitchen full of knives.

And then, victim number two
is her boyfriend.

The timing works
that he saw her killing Frank.

You're forgetting
one thing... blood.

In this version of events,
Daniella is killing

in a fit of rage.
She hasn't planned it.

She hasn't taken steps
to cover her clothes.

So why wasn't she
soaked in blood?

Hmm. Her mother then?
Premeditated.

Perhaps Frank was right

that she was stealing
her clients' dogs,

and she knew
that he was on to her.

He was trying
to get to her house, right?

Rock solid alibi, though.
Several people confirmed

she didn't leave the table.

I'm wondering if this is
actually about Frank's life

before he became a PI.

His software company?

Perry Fleming
and Lorna McIntosh

both have a long history
with him,

and both of them
lied about it.

My initial assessment was correct.

Ventricular fibrillation
leading to cardiac arrest

caused by electrocution.

Not even 21.

He was saving up
to go traveling.

You know the rule.
We don't go there.

I can't do this
if I let myself do that.

Sorry.

We've got blood
under the fingernails,

but before you get excited,
it could turn out to be his own.

Oh, from scrabbling
around the collar.

Exactly.
The lab's taking a look.

Thank you.

I hope I didn't
outstay my welcome

at your place
the other night.

Although that second bottle
of Malbec was Sarah's idea.

Oh, she's a terrible influence,
that woman.

Are you still taking Paddy out
this lunchtime?

I'm not sure about the dog
thing, actually.

That was possibly
the wine talking.

But I promised him you'd do it.
He'll be crushed.

And on the subject
of overenthusiastic mutts.

Sorry I'm late.
I know that you asked me

to do a full 360
on Aden Hughes.

What have you got?

I... I spoke to HR
at the mortgage broker

where he said that he works,

and apparently he doesn't
work there anymore.

He was fired over a month ago.
- What for?

Turning up late,
failing to turn up at all,

and getting high
at lunchtime.

That'll do it.
- But she also said

that I wasn't the first person
to ask about Aden this week.

Frank called on Monday,
asking the same questions.

What did she tell him?

She wouldn't give him
any detail,

but Frank obviously
knew something about Aden

because he was doing
his own investigation into him.

I was clean for
about 10 years,

but then it crept back in.

And your wife doesn't know?

No, and she can't find out.

She's always said,
once we had kids,

if I went back to it,
it'd be game over.

She thinks you're still
going out to work every day.

I'm hoping to line
something else up,

and I can say I was headhunted,
can't I?

And in the meantime?

I put on my suit,

wave good-bye,
park up near the cemetery,

walk the dog at lunch,
and wait for the day to end.

And you're still using?

Some days.

Some days I manage not to.

Frank cottoned on, didn't he?

He called your employer asking
if you still worked for them.

He must have seen me.

Is that what you were arguing
about at the cemetery gates?

He said,

"If the father of Eshani's kids
was using drugs,

then she had
a right to know."

He gave me till the end
of the week to tell them.

Which, by your own admission,
would end your marriage.

So what did you do?

Did you find a way
to silence him?

Of course not, no.
I...

Did Tai know that
you were using, too?

All the delivery riders used
the cemetery as a shortcut.

Did he see you?
Blackmail you?

You're both completely wrong.

I didn't touch
either of them.

And I...

I actually have an alibi
for when Frank was killed.

I was with Dani.

Daniella Saunders?
Where?

We were round the side
of the restaurant, had a smoke.

I asked her not
to tell you because, um...

Because you were buying
drugs off her!

Perry!
Sorry.

I probably should have
called or something.

Of course not.
Don't worry. Come in.

Good boy, Paddy.
Oh!

Good boy, Paddy.
Good boy.

Uh, no, no, no.

Give it to me. That's it.

Now fetch!

Paddy.

Paddy!

Hello?

Who's there?

Paddy!

Paddy!

Look at him. He's milking it
for all he's worth.

Well, at least he's safe.

I think I'll pass
on dog ownership.

Not my idea of a hobby.

You didn't manage to get
a look at whoever it was?

Sorry.
I found this though.

They must have taken it off
to crawl into the bushes,

then decided running away
from me

was more important
than going back for it.

If I was being chased by you,

I'd definitely prioritize
getting away.

Mm.

Collar. Muzzle. Treats.

It's a dog catching kit,
isn't it?

That's what I thought.

I'll see if the lab
can get anything from it.

Hmm.

We had a key ring like this
when we went sailing.

The cork stops the keys...

from sinking if you drop them
in the water.

You think the thief's keeping
the dogs somewhere near water?

Where's that map
that Kim gave us?

Yeah, there were a number
of sightings along the river.

Kim said that Storm
was a problem barker.

That would make her difficult
to hide, wouldn't it?

If she stays in one place,

the noise would
attract attention.

Yeah, but if they
kept her moving.

Then she's never in one place
long enough for it

to be an issue.

She's being kept on a boat.

William Fleming's canal boat was
moored at the end of his garden

when I was around Wednesday,
and yesterday it was gone.

Shall we?

Okay, Dad?

I thought you might like
a bit of company.

Anything need doing?

Oh, it's pretty quiet,
to be honest.

Shouldn't you be taking it easy
after everything yesterday?

A bit of a distraction
is probably for the best.

Plus, it helps stop you
being on your own.

Oh, I'm all right.
Are you?

It was spotted opposite
the Mallard Pub.

Is that it up ahead?

Stay right there.

I've been taking
good care of her.

How many times
have you done this?

She's the third.

I do feel bad for the owners.

No, you don't. You saw
an easy way to make money,

so you stole a member of
someone's family.

I needed to help a friend.

Sh...
Th-They owe money to people

Like, people you don't want
to owe money to.

Daniella? We know
about the drugs.

She just sort of spiraled
after exams finished.

Like, once that
focus was gone,

everything with
her brother just...

Grief.

It's like she's got this
self-destruct button.

And now she owes money
to someone?

This kid from school.
H-His older brother sells pills,

and he said that
she could have 'em for free

if she held on to
a package for him, only...

Only Madeline
found the drugs,

thought they were Tai's,
and flushed them away.

Yeah.

Yeah. S-So...

So he said that she had
to pay him back.

But it was so much.
Like, Tai was working

extra delivery shifts
to help.

And then, I remember

this guy I met
at this dog training thing.

He said he was looking
for specific breeds

to sell and that...

he wouldn't ask questions
if I ever...

found one.

We'll need his details.

What happens now?

We arrest you.

And if you're lucky,
you'll be released on bail.

Who else knows about this?
- No one.

I told Daniella I was getting
the money from my dad.

Where did you learn to use
such sophisticated encryption?

What?

The ransom note.
Tech team were impressed.

You used some kind
of dark web proxy.

What... I-I didn't send
a ransom note.

Honestly, that wasn't me.

I'm not going to pretend
to know what a Tor node IP is,

but you're the expert,
aren't you?

Professor McIntosh.

Our digital team can take it
from here if you prefer.

They'll do a deep dive.
- There's no need.

I sent it.

I've been feeling sick
ever since.

Why did you do it then?

After everything with Frank,
I wanted to get back to work,

but I...

I get very anxious now.

It's all got a... a bit
out of control.

I-I stopped opening them
months ago,

so I'm not sure
how bad it is.

You thought Storm's family
could pay your bills?

Their photos were
all over the papers.

They looked like
they were well-off.

And they're dog lovers,
aren't they?

What's that got
to do with it?

I thought they'd pay.

Dog people are crazy.

Go on.

Thank you so much.

-Eshani Hughes called it in.
- Yeah, at 3:48.

Apparently, when uniform
returned Storm to the family,

they told her where the ransom
note came from.

They did what?!

I know. Eshani said
she came here to confront Lorna.

That's when she found her.

Can you get rid of that?

They're all over
the forensic field.

Come, come on.

It's for catching dogs, isn't it?

They call them snare poles,
I believe.

The noose closes around the neck
to hold the animal.

I was here interviewing her
just over an hour ago.

What time did you leave?

2:45.
Well, look at this.

It operates on a timer,

and it's set to dispense
dry cat food at 3:00 PM.

So those crumbs
on her hand...

She was dead on the floor
by the time it went off.

Her cats ate
the food off her.

Lovely.

But it does at least
pinpoint time of death.

The doors were all locked,
weren't they?

Yeah, but that window was open
and that plant pot

had been knocked over.

Hmm.
Killed through the window.

Which might tell us
something psychologically.

They're trying to keep
their distance?

Potentially, which is a...
a shift in mind-set.

Frank and Tai were both killed
at very close quarters.

So what was special
about Lorna?

Maybe her murder is not
connected to the others.

A dog kennel,
a training collar,

and then a dog snare
is too much of a coincidence.

Okay, but Lorna doesn't have
any connection to Tai

that we know of.

She didn't have any connection
to anyone quite deliberately.

There was one visitor,
though, sir.

Neighbor said that Lorna
let a man into her house

at lunchtime today.

Early 40s, slim,
blue beanie, and a beard.

Lorna?

Are you sure?

I mean, obviously you're sure,

but why would anyone
want to hurt Lorna?

Who's Lorna?

Someone your dad
used to work with.

Come on, let's leave him to it.
- But I want to...

Reece, you're in no
position to argue.

I still can't believe
what he's been up to.

We knew nothing about it.

Did you visit Lorna
at home today?

Yeah.

At lunchtime. I was there
for about half an hour.

Is that a regular thing?

No, I hadn't seen her
for probably about a year.

So why the visit today?

Gossip, basically.

Our old boss
had just been murdered,

and I know it's not very nice
to pick over it, but...

he wasn't very nice, so...

Did Lorna have theories
about why Frank was killed?

Well, if he was still behaving
the same way around women,

her money was on his wife.

And where were you between
2:45 and 3:00 PM today?

You think
I'm involved in this?

Help us out.
Where were you?

On dad's boat.

When Reece phoned
us from the station,

told us what he'd been doing,

he said the dog
had caused some damage.

I've got someone renting it
from tomorrow,

so I thought I'd go
and do some repairs.

Did anyone see you?

I was inside the boat,
wasn't I?

You didn't see anyone at all?

Do you want me
to make something up?

No.
I didn't see anyone.

No alibi.

Clear motive for Frank's murder.
Access for Tai's.

And the only person with
a clear connection to Lorna.

We need to know if he was
really on that boat.

-Hmm.
- Fleur.

Hi. The blood under
Tai's fingernails,

it's a familial match
for William Fleming.

So William's son
or his grandson?

The genetic relatedness
is exactly 50%.

It can only be his son.

And we've just
let him drive away.

That's his truck.

Perry?

Perry, we need you
to open up.

Winter.

It won't look good
if you run.

We have DNA.

Look, this is harassment now.

I'll say it again.

There's DNA.

When Tai fought back,

when you put that collar
around his neck,

he scratched you.
No.

Someone's made a mistake.

Then show me your arms.

I didn't want to hurt Tai.

Or Lorna. It was
only ever about Frank.

So this was revenge
for what he did to you at work?

And for what he did
to my dad.

Because people like that,
they don't stop, do they?

Not unless
somebody stops them.

And Tai saw you?

He saw the blood
on my clothes.

I promised him cash,

but then he was getting
that inheritance.

He didn't need
my money anymore.

The only way to silence him
was to kill him.

And Lorna?

She knew how much I despised
Frank... she worked it out.

You left his
company years ago.

When I saw him going
after my dad,

it was like it was
all starting up again.

And I couldn't let that happen,
could I?

Not when I wasn't going to
be there to protect him.

What do you mean
you weren't going to be there?

What are those?

It's private.

These are all for Reece.

You're writing them
now because...

Because I've left it
too late.

I knew I had symptoms, but...

head in the sand.

Cancer?

It's fairly...

you know.

I'm not going to be there
in person, so...

Sorry.

Do your family know?

Nobody does.

Reece's heart transplant's
not going to last.

He's going
to need another one.

And my dad's going to need
to get him through that.

I can't have him thinking
about Frank.

My sergeant is going
to place you under arrest now.

Am I looking
at life for this?

I would think so, yes.

Hopefully not too long then.

I just had to pay
for that guy's dinner

because someone jumped up
and stole his sausage roll.

We've all been there.

Seriously, Paddy,
you know that there are...

there are dogs who can lead
blind people across the road,

rescue people from mountains,
sniff out disease.

All we ask you to do is sit in
the pub without causing chaos.

-Sir.
- Did you see what he just did?

Perry's alibi for Lorna's murder
checks out.

He was on his boat.

The pub's CCTV, it points
straight across there.

You can see his boat
and that he was on it.

Well, why did he just confess
to killing her?

Maybe he's trying
to protect someone.

His father, his son.

Neither of them
could have killed Lorna.

Reece was in our custody suite
and William was there

to collect him.
- Who else would Perry lie for then?

If Betty needed
an organ transplant,

if her life was saved
by someone's sacrifice,

I'd do almost anything
for them.

Madeline Saunders.
- Without her son's heart,

Reece wouldn't be here.

But why would Madeline
want to kill Lorna?

And how does that connect
to Perry killing Tai and Frank?

I mean, we do still think
that it's Perry, right?

It's Perry's blood
under Tai's fingernails.

Why would...

Paddy!

Madeline told me that her dog
could sniff out cancer.

Perry said no one knows
about his diagnosis.

But what if Madeline did know

and used that knowledge
to her advantage?

U-Used it how?

What if Madeline is the one
with the motive, not Perry,

and she persuaded him
to kill for her?

But why would Madeline
want to kill Frank?

I don't think she did.
But she hated Tai, didn't she?

She tried everything to keep him
away from her daughter.

And Tai turned up in that
car park moments after Frank.

Two men of the same height
and build,

both wearing dark jackets,

both in full-face
motorbike helmets.

You think Tai was
the target all along?

It was just a case
of mistaken identity?

Wrong time, wrong place.

It's possible.
Hmm.

Tell Sarah we'll be back.

Oh.

Sir, I found him.
Uniform took him to the river

to locate the knife.
And you're right.

It wasn't Frank being lured
to the restaurant car park.

It was definitely Tai.

The takeaway that
he was meant to collect

was ordered to a church hall.

When it wasn't delivered,
no one chased it up.

The whole thing was a trap.

Daniella's not here.

I wanted to speak to you.

Oh, right.
Oh, sorry.

Charlie, away.

This must be the dog
you mentioned.

The one that can
sniff out cancer.

He's still training.

He was good enough to spot
Perry's illness,

though, wasn't he?

Don't know what you mean.

You do know, Madeline.

Shall we sit down?

You did an incredible thing,

allowing your son's heart
to go to Reece.

I can't imagine
how difficult that was

and how grateful Perry was.

He always said...

if there was
anything he could do.

And then there was.

You wanted Tai to disappear.

And you asked Perry
to make that happen.

When I found the...

drugs in Daniella's bag...

I had to do something.

And...

And it is like...

it all fell into place.

Charlie had been behaving
strangely around Perry,

and I eventually persuaded him
to go to the GP,

and he confided in me
about his diagnosis.

I saw a solution.

You saw a way
to take advantage

of a terminally ill man.

-Perry.
- I know what I owe you.

When I see Reece
laughing with his mates,

or kicking a football,

when I can still look in
on him at night,

I know that's only possible
because of what you lost.

I would have done anything
you asked me to do.

But shouldn't have asked me
to do that.

I just thought that

you were more able
to take the risk.

Because I wasn't going to live
to see the consequences.

I'm sorry.

All the planning
for Tai's murder,

luring him to the restaurant,
that was you?

I used to wait
behind the kitchens

to collect Daniella after
her shifts.

Hardly anyone used that area.

Just the takeaway drivers and...

the app, the delivery app
that Tai worked for.

You could see
the rider's name, but...

it went wrong.

It accepted the order.

Then, right on time,
there he was.

He was coming
from the wrong direction,

but I mean, black jacket,
same sort of helmet.

It was only when I heard
him screaming

that I realized it wasn't Tai.

And then I heard the bike.
I knew I had to hide him.

The only place I could see
was that kennel.

That story about buying
Tai's silence.

That was a lie.
He didn't witness anything.

And he was still alive.

So you tried again
in the most brutal way.

You electrocuted him.

Everyone was saying
that Frank had been killed

because of his PI work.

And when I heard that theory,
it was easiest to play into it.

She told me it would
be painless for him.

It wasn't.

And his eyes...

When I put the collar on,
he woke up.

When he realized
what I was doing, it was just

sheer terror.

We know that Perry
didn't kill Lorna.

You did that.

He told her everything.

I had to talk to someone,
and we could have trusted her.

She understood.

I couldn't take the risk.

I tried to do it quickly.

She didn't know
it was coming.

He killed for you,
and then he lied for you.

Was it worth it?

I thought I was helping,
but...

You were!

He was saving
my daughter's life.

The way Edison saved Reece.

Except Daniella didn't
need saving.

She did.

She'd worked so hard!

And she was just...

throwing it all away!

From the moment
that she met Tai,

her life went off the rails.

You mean, it went in
the direction she chose.

You do not know
what you're talking about.

She's my daughter.

Exactly.

She's your daughter,
not your pet.

You don't own her.

I realize that.

No.

You think you can
control everything,

and you even managed
to control me, but it's over.

I did what you wanted.
Now we're quits.

Mum?

What's going on?

I got your text,
so I got a new round in.

At last.
Thank you.

So, Fleur's on her way back.
She's just gone to get Lysander.

Lysander?
- 42, supremely handsome.

And it's all happened
very quickly.

Here he is.

I did the postmortem
on his owner

and heard he needed
a new home.

Now I see it.

It's like you've been missing
a parrot this whole time.

Birds are more my thing
than dogs.

More chat, less excrement.

Who's a pretty boy then?

Not you, nitwit.
Not you, nitwit.

See? My soul mate?

I think you've
finally found the one.

Yes.
Here you are, darling.

Yeah. Yeah.
