- Look, what you've done
technically falls

under the prevention of
terrorism.

We've already got the evidence
you hacked into our system.

Now if T-branch get involved,

you know what that means.

You've got no rights and
they can hold you forever.

You don't want that,
we don't want that.

So just talk to us.

Your data, it's been
encrypted too.

What is it?

- 8,192 bits.

- Why so high?

What's in there that you
don't want us to find?

- Who are you protecting?

[door knocks]

Are you all right?

- I'm pretty thirsty.

[building intense music]

- Hey!

Hey take it easy.

Just relax, put it down.

You don't have to do this.

[electronic buzzing]

[dramatic instrumental music]

No, no no no!

- Good evening, officers.

You have been chosen

to test our new
Transference technology.

Your assignment is as follows.

A murder has been committed.

Seemingly impossible murder

of businessman Martin Donovan,

strangled in his own study

while family members and guests
are in the room nextdoor.

All with rock solid alibis,

and yet one of
them is the killer.

You must find out which
one committed the crime,

confront your suspect

and demonstrate how and why
the crime was committed.

Every action,
every decision you make

will be monitored and graded.

You will all have the
rank of detective.

The winner gets to
return home immediately

and retain their
new rank permanently.

A clean slate.

The rest of you, you stay
exactly where you are.

Now, you've been divided
into the following teams.

Catherine Beaty
and Diana Gregor.

Richard Manning and
Steven Williams.

Nina Thompson and Oliver Perot.

Jeff Cruden and Peter Wall.

You've all been briefed on
Transference.

You are the first to
test this technology.

In the event of
a technical issue

our in built help desk
is there to support you.

On top of this,
we have created Sherlock,

that can assist with your
deductions,

but only once.

Transference
is the most exciting

innovation of our lifetime.

Transference is the future.

[radio chattering]

- This is Cynthia Green,
fiancé of the deceased,

and William Connor, his lawyer.

Both were dinner guests tonight.

- I'll go over their statements,

you look in on the crime scene.

- Right.

[soft intense music]

- He was strangled from behind,

the body is then
for and forward.

A shirt and tie
have been removed

because we noticed
something on his back.

- [Richard] What have
you got so far, doctor?

- Ligature strangulation.

This would have taken about

one to two minutes.

There's bruising
and abrasions around

the neck area
from the victim's nails.

There will be a full autopsy
report for you in the morning.

- We've been over
this whole room,

no prints anywhere.

- Death must have been
around 6:15, or 6:16.

- That's new.

Lots of photos of Julia.

Daddy's little princess, aye.

- It's like his whole life

was just his work
and his daughter.

How did the killer get in?

- Not the windows,
they're completely sealed.

- It's a 10 story drop.

So unless our guy's Spiderman.

- There's no way this
was his escape route.

- The only way
in or out was that door.

- But that door was in view
of the guests the whole time.

- So they all say.

[soft dramatic music]

- What have you got there?

Looks like a piece
of a document.

See what the boys
can make of that.

- Repeating our top
story this morning.

Prominent local
businessman, Martin Donovan

has been murdered.

He was found
strangled in his apartment

early yesterday evening

during a dinner party
with friends and family.

Mr. Donovan was the founder

of the financial
investment company,

Donovan Enterprises

and was also involved in the
wine and food industries.

His daughter and sister are
the local fashion designers

Julia and Samantha Donovan.

Samantha had this
to say last night.

- This is a terrible tragedy.

For the family and for the city.

Martin was a wonderful
and caring brother,

father, husband, employer,

and indulged many fine causes

throughout the community and
supported them generously.

I beg you, if anybody
knows anything whatsoever,

please contact the police
straightaway.

Thank you.

- Police are still
investigating,

but no arrests have
yet to be made.

Now looking at
the weather today,

today will be mostly
fine with a high of 20.

[gentle intense music]

[car beeps]

[car beeps]

- Morning.

- Good morning.

- Good morning.

- Yes?

- Detective Richard Manning.

I'm sorry for your loss.

- Dad and I used to play
together here a lot.

- I just need to
confirm a few things

in your statement.

- I've already been
through that.

- You were one of the last
people to see your father.

- Yes.

- Who was in the room with you?

- Dad's fiancé, Cynthia.

Aunt Samantha and William
Connor, he's dad's lawyer.

- And who else
was in the apartment?

- Angela the housekeeper,
she was in the kitchen then

and David was in the hallway.

- [Richard] David?

- David Mitchell,
CEO of Dad's company.

You must know all of this.

- Just being thorough.

Can you tell me
exactly what happened

once your father came
into the living room?

- I was sitting on the couch.

- I played tennis today.

I haven't played for ages.

- How was it?

- It was exhausting actually.

- I play with my colleague
Glean, he's very good.

What about you,
do you play tennis?

- Excuse me.

Julia, darling,
would you like to come

and help me set up for dinner?

I had give the old game
on the court today.

- We're all being paid to lose.

- [Samantha] I wouldn't
be so sure about that.

- It's down the road from here.

- Julia, why don't
you go to your father

and tell him that
dinner is ready?

- I will, here now.

Dad, dinner's ready.

Dad?

Then we found him.

- There's only one door,

leading into the
study from the hallway.

- Correct.

- And this door was in view

the whole time your
father was in there?

- Yes.

- And yet someone
got into that room.

Killed him and
then got out again

completely unseen.

- I know it doesn't
make any sense.

- No it doesn't.

Can you think of any reason

why someone would
harm your father?

- When your successful
you make enemies, but no,

I can't think of anyone
who'd want to kill Dad.

- How close were you two?

- I'm an only child.

Mom died in a car
accident when I was six,

since then it's just
been the two of us.

- There was a symbol left
on your father's back.

An Ouroboros,
is an ancient symbol

of the serpent
swallowing its own tail.

- What does it mean?

- Well it can represent
the cycle of life

constantly recreating itself.

Beginning anew
as soon as it ends.

Why did you go into his
study later that evening?

- Well, I knew Dad was changing

his will before the marriage.

I was curious to see
what the changes were.

- What time was this?

- About five.

Besides, Dad never
included me in anything.

He supported my own dreams.

The suit he was wearing
the night he died,

that was my label.

It was my last gift to him.

- If you think of anything else.

[gentle intense music]

- Good morning, Richard.

- Morning.

[soft dramatic music]

[electronic beeping]

- Hi Dad.

- Hi Rich.

Hope the case is going well.

Everyone here misses you.

I just wanted to say

that we shouldn't have left
things the way they were.

We'll discuss things when you
get back.

Say bye to daddy.

- Bye Dad.

- We'll let you get
back to your case.

- Just for once

I'd like to beat you
in in the morning.

- This is early for you.

Well done.

- God, I hate mornings.

- [Richard] So do I today.

I feel like I've got a hangover.

- You had a late one, too?

- No.

How did you make
that big sign one day?

- It's a gift.

Did you get my text last night

after I interviewed
the housekeeper?

- Yeah, thanks.

I confronted Julia
about it this morning.

- And?

- She said she wanted
a look at the new will,

didn't feel comfortable just
asking Daddy.

- Do you believe her?

- Well at first.

She suspected the will
was gonna be changed,

she was curious.

- Interviewing Suspects 101.

Everyone lies about something.

I just can't get my head
around this case, Rich.

- Yeah, me neither.

- You think better than me.

I got nowhere.

[gentle intense music]

- God, it's quiet here.

I can get used to it.

- Probably the attraction
of this place, isn't it?

Come on, mate, we need coffee.

[machine whirring]

[gentle light music]

I talked to Sherlock last night.

- Really, Christ.

- Look, I'm supposed to be
the senior officer here.

And all our ideas
have been your ideas.

I'm feeling like a fifth wheel.

- We're in this together, mate.

Was Sherlock helpful?

- No.

He said, and I quote,

without any concrete
ideas or theories,

he couldn't help me,
it was a waste of time.

- That's wasn't smart.

Now I can't speak to
him until the very end.

- Have you got any ideas?

- Well look, the killer's
definitely one of our guests.

And I've got no idea
who or why or--

- How the thing was done.

- [Richard] Exactly.

- And the killer gets
in and out like a ghost.

We wouldn't be
here if it was easy.

So Boy Wonder, what do you
got planned for us today?

- Why don't we split up?

I'll take Samantha.

She knew Martin
better than anyone

and we need to
know more about him.

- And me?

- Why don't you
talk to David Mitchell?

I know his phone
alibi checks out,

but he's the only guest
that was alone for any time.

See you at 12.

[soft intense music]

I never expected
a chance this early.

You know to be the youngest ever
chosen.

It's a great opportunity.

- Great.

- And if I solve this case

it means a promotion,
we can move out

of that shoebox apartment.

I'm doing this for us.

- No, you're doing
this for yourself.

We barely see you as it is

and now you're
volunteering for this.

I just have a really
bad feeling about this.

They're using you
like guinea pigs.

It's just wrong.

- It's the only way
to get promoted.

This is something I have to do.

Lisa.

Lisa.

- I know you think you're
doing the right thing,

but I don't.

Can you please just listen
to me just this once?

Don't do this.

[gentle intense music]

- Hello again.

- Hello.

- Your always ahead of me.

Case going well?

- You know we
can't discuss that.

Still early days, plenty
of time to catch up.

- What I need to know is

what kind of a man
Martin really was.

- Martin was unique.

He was 12 years
older than me and

the only family I ever had.

- You were near the door

when he entered the study.

- Yes, he came over to me.

[mellow upbeat music]

- I've just got a little
bit of work to finish off.

Let me know when dinner's ready.

- Sure.
- I'm starving.

- Excuse me.

Julia, darling would
you like to come help me

set up for dinner?

- [Richard] You two
are very close.

- [Samantha] Very.

She's more than just my niece.

Her mother died
in a car accident

when she was young and

well I've been there
for her ever since.

- After the accident,

your brother stopped trading.

He sold most of his investments.

- They'd been out for dinner,

he went back to the office

and Adrian was
driving back with Julia.

It was a wet night, she
lost control and crashed.

- How was Martin's relationship

with Julia after that?

- No child had
ever been more loved

and more protected.

- What do you think of Cynthia?

They'd been engaged for a year.

- She's a very smart woman.

She must be devastated

all her hard
work's gone for nothing.

- You believe that she was
only marrying your brother

for his money.

- No, of course not.

- But you wouldn't
consider her a suspect.

- Look, I don't
consider anyone a suspect,

we're all each other's alibis.

It had to be an outsider.

[phone beeps]

- Excuse me.

[soft intense music]

- Good afternoon.

- Hi.

Table for two.

- Sure, follow me.

- Pretty quiet in here.

- Is it?

[gentle intense music]

- [Man] So, what's so urgent?

I thought you'd
be out celebrating.

- Look, I can't do it.

- You're the
youngest ever officer

to get this opportunity.

- Yeah, I know.

- [Man] But?

- Would you do it?

- What was your main aim?

Your only aim when
you joined this place?

- To make detective.

- And here's your chance.

Years before most people
get an opportunity.

You wanna throw that away?

Stay on the same crappy wage,

support your family
on that forever?

- Lisa's begging
me not to do it.

- [Man] She's being
melodramatic.

- She's scared.

- That hacker's death

sparked a lot
of anger out there.

We could have
hung you out to dry.

And if you don't take this
chance now,

do you think you'll
get another one?

Some very senior people
gave you this chance,

I wouldn't want
to piss them off.

They say it's
really beautiful there.

The air is pure, there's space.

Steve's grateful
for this second chance.

He signed on this morning.

[phone beeps]

[soft intense music]

- Hello?

Have you seen Steve?

- Who?

[soft intense music]

- Steven Williams, where is he?

- I can find no record
of a Steven Williams.

Are you sure he
works in this building?

- Of course he does.

He's my partner
on the Donovan case.

- There is no record of
anyone working with you.

- That's ridiculous, he
was here this morning!

- You must be mistaken, Richard.

- No, you're mistaken.

Steve's a police officer,
a detective!

You can't just lose
someone, I mean.

- I'm sorry, Richard,

there is no Steven
Williams in our records.

- I wanna speak with Help Desk.

- Help Desk can only be
activated in an emergency.

- Let me speak with
Help Desk right now.

- Help Desk has been
activated, please wait.

[computer beeps]

Help Desk is ready,
please go to your office.

[soft mellow music]

- Your early today, Richard.

- Have we met before?

- You could say that.

- Look, something's
gone very wrong

and my partner Steven
Williams has disappeared.

- And you're being
told that there is no

record of any such person.

- Yes.

- You've also noticed other
mysterious happenings,

such as pigeons
and other characters

are disappearing.

You're feeling lethargic

and getting weaker all the time.

- How do you know all this?

- Have a seat, Richard.

Please.

- What's going on?

- Our program
encountered a virus.

We have no idea how it
got through our defenses,

or where it came from.

This virus is
corrupting our files

at an alarming rate.

Non essential components,

such as objects, animals
and eventually people

have been wiped completely

as a safety mechanism

to protect the
game's key players.

Like yourself.

But you're all
running below capacity,

that's why you feel so weak.

However, as the game
deteriorates further,

real detectives must be wiped

in order of their priority.

Steven Williams
was low priority.

- Steve's been returned home?

- The only way to
leave this world early

is to win it.

Steven Williams has been
wiped from our records.

He no longer exists.

- He's dead?

- He no longer exists.

- Well when will you get
this virus under control?

- The game engine needs
repair back in the real world

but we never had any assistance.

- So what do you
think's gonna happen?

- I can tell you
exactly what will happen.

At 7:47 p.m. this game

will immediately
shut down and reboot.

- What does that mean?

- It means that in
less than six hours,

this entire day will begin again

and everything, including
Steven, yourself,

everything gets re-instigated,

as if nothing has happened.

- So everything can be saved.

Thank god.

- Not quite.

The virus is still
in our system.

So it simply begins
to corrupt the game

exactly as before.

Everything begins to
disintegrate again.

And again and again.

Our world in here is stuck

in a perpetual time warp.

We are living one endless day.

- How long have we all
been stuck in here for?

Weeks?

Months?

Years, decades?

- I don't know.

Just before the game shuts down

it sends me one
final error report.

But I'm only programmed

to keep the last
365 days on my records.

It could be a year and a day,

it could be three million
years, I just don't know.

- Lisa.

Tommy, my parents,
they could all be dead.

They could be long gone.

They could be waiting for you.

- This can't be happening.

- It already has happened,
Richard.

[soft somber music]

- I missed the five.

[machine whirring]
[intense music building]

[soft mellow music]

- My wife never wanted me here.

She knew the risks,
but I didn't listen.

- I know.

- So we have this exact
conversation ever day.

- Every single day.

- What if someone
solved the case

before the game rebooted?

- Then that person would
be exported from the game

and back to the real world.

- All the detectives are
investigating the same case,
right?

- Correct.

- Then why don't
we get everyone together,

pull our resources.

- There are hardly any left.

Steven Williams
isn't the only one

who has been wiped.

- Well get all the
detectives that are left.

- It's not in the rules.

- For fuck's sake!

[soft record scratching]

[mellow piano music]

- We are all inside a
computer program, Richard

and the programming
can't be changed.

- Can't you do something?

Anything?

- I was designed so that
no one can cheat off me.

Richard, you come up
with this idea every day.

- What if I team up with
one other detective,

someone to replace Steve?

Who else is left?

- It's forbidden for
me to tell you that.

But if you were to find
that person yourself

there's nothing to stop you
forming an alliance with them.

- Then that's what I'll do.

Do I always do the
exact same thing?

- You never give up.

You always think
there's a chance.

But even if you
do solve this murder,

you could be trapped here
when the game reboots,

or you may die.

- Anything's better than this.

- I can tell you that
Sherlock is still operating.

You will need his
help to have any chance.

[mellow piano music]

[intense choral music]

- Hi Dad.

- Hi Rich, hope your
case is going well,

everyone here misses you.

- Bye Dad.

- We'll let you get
back to your case.

- Thank god you're still here.

Do you know what's going on?

- I don't know.

- Look, surely you
must have noticed

how weird things are today.

Who are you waiting for?

- My partner.

- She's not going to turn up.

- What do you mean?

- Look, you'll never believe me,

I'll explain in the car--

- I'm not going anywhere.

I don't know who you really are.

- You need to talk to Help Desk.

- Help Desk?

- I don't have time to explain,

I'm gonna see David Mitchell,

I'll be at the vineyard.

We need to work together.

Trust me.

[building intense music]

- I need to be there

for the meeting
of the initial business,

Yes, yes of course.

Here I am stuck in a
vineyard because.

All right,
that's not my problem.

Forget it, I'll do it myself.

Can I help you?

- I'm investigating
the Donovan case.

Got a few questions.

- Be as quick as you can.

As I'm sure you can appreciate

there's a lot for me to
do now Martin's gone.

- Was this one of Martin's
investments?

- This, was just a hobby.

A status symbol.

Martin didn't even drink.

I oversaw this place

and all his other investments.

- That evening you
spoke with Martin

in the hallway before he
came into the living room.

- Yes, I had taken a call there.

Martin must have
come out of his bedroom.

He was wearing that new
suit Julia had made him.

- What did you talk about?

- He was unhappy

with our last quarterly result.

We lost over five million.

Martin wanted somebody's head.

- I don't care if there's
no one to blame.

We can't have a loss
like this and do nothing

it makes us look weak.

Someone has to carry the cow.

- Okay.

Who should I fire?

- That's your problem.

Make an executive
decision for once.

[mellow upbeat music]

- Don't be long.

- Yes, good day.

Looks I'm gonna have to cancel
my appointments for tomorrow.

- And this call lasted
from 6:15 to 6:19.

Phone records on
your PA confirm this.

- Yes, and then I joined the
others in the living room.

Soon after that we found Martin.

- That must have been a shock.

- Still can't believe it.

- Who do you think did it?

- An intruder, obviously.

- Not one of the guests?

- Impossible.

We were all together
the whole time.

- Except you.

- Except me.

But tell me this,

how did I walk
past several witnesses,

strangle Martin, walk out
past the same witnesses,

all while still on the phone?

- So what happens
to the company now?

Does Julia inherit everything?

- She's meeting with the
lawyers this afternoon,

but I'm expecting
her to take ownership.

- And how will that effect you?

- Julia knows nothing
about this company.

She's only interested in
clothes.

So I'm assuming she'll
take a hands off approach.

Which will mean
more work for me.

- And a lot more power for you.

- I think we're done here.

[sobbing]

- [Catherine] I can't stop
thinking about my family.

- My son has just turned three.

He had just turned three.

What about you?

- No kids.

But the thought of
not seeing my parents

or my sister again.

- Look, I know it's tough,

but we've got to stay focused,

it's our only chance.

- Help Desk doesn't
give us any chance.

- We're both still here.

That means we know a lot
more than the others.

- [Catherine] So who's your
prime suspect?

- David Mitchell.

He's the only guest unobserved
for several minutes.

Now Martin's gone, he'll
probably control the company.

- But David was
on his phone then.

How did he strangle
Martin at the same time

and get in and out of the study?

- His alibi's solid
as a rock but

something's not right about it.

What about you, who's your pick?

- Julia.

Maybe she found his new will.

Saw how much
Cynthia was getting,

so then destroyed it

and made sure Martin
wouldn't write a new one.

- What about the others?

- Angela, the housekeeper.

Like David, was also
unobserved for several minutes.

- Then there's Cynthia.

She has the least motive.

Why would she kill Martin
before they're even married

and she's not even in the will?

- Maybe Martin was gonna
end the relationship,

so she took revenge?

But that seems unlikely.

Everyone says he
was beside with her.

- Or William and Cynthia
could be in on it together.

Maybe he wanted her for himself.

If she's short of money,

he might think he has
a chance with her now.

- And he's Martin's lawyer,

he could have easily siphoned
off money over the years.

- [Richard] They both stayed

in the living room
the whole time.

- And so did Samantha.

And I can't see an
alliance in those three.

- Could Samantha be the killer?

Maybe she's always hated

living in her brother's shadow

and she'll certainly
benefit from his death.

- But how could she,

or any of them get in
and out of that study?

God, it's so hard to
concentrate.

I'm so tired.

We're wasting time.

We need more information.

- I'll talk to William.

He's seeing
Julia about the will,

it should give us
some clues to mush.

- Good idea.

I'll talk to our
dark horse Angela.

So you're married with a child,

why risk it all coming in here?

- There was a case Steven
and I were working on.

A hacker got caught

trying to break into our server.

We suspected he was a small part

of something much larger,

so we began an interrogation

to see if he was
working with anyone else.

- And was he?

- We never found out.

He killed himself on my watch.

A suicide ring was
hid in the evidence.

They could have thrown
me out for negligence.

Steve too, he was
the senior officer.

Instead they offered us
this, a second chance.

- They had
something on you, too.

- What do you mean?

- I, suppressed a piece
of evidence on a case.

Child molester.

We knew we had the right
guy, they found me out.

- And given the same
choice as me.

- Maybe ever cop in here

has got a black mark against
their name.

We're all expendable.

- Now my family's
alone out there.

- Look, let's just stay
with the case, okay?

There's one part I just don't
understand.

This Ouroboros just
seems so abstract.

- But it has to mean something.

- Good luck, I'll pick
you up in an hour.

[soft intense music]

- [Julia] Just in
time for the will.

- Is everyone here for it?

- I assume so.

How's the investigation going?

- [Richard] Slowly.

- Why is that?

- Well, because no one's
really being that honest.

- Does that really surprise you?

- Julia, please have a seat.

- Does he need to be here?

- Of course he needs to be here,

he's trying to find
Martin's killer.

- I'll get right to it.

This is Martin Donovan's
last will and testament.

It was signed in this room on
February the 4th, last year.

- February last year?

He hasn't made
another one since?

- No.

As you all know, Martin Donovan

was an extremely wealthy man.

The beneficiaries
are as follows,

to Martin's sister,
Samantha Donovan,

a lump sum of $40 million.

Everything else, including
all of Martin's share,

cash and property portfolios

he leaves to his daughter,
Julia.

- He's left me everything?

- This is ridiculous!

He promised me
I'd be looked after!

- He barely knew
you last February.

- I'm not mentioned at all?

- Not once.

- This is not over.

- There's not much else to say.

Julia, I'll give you
a lot of documents

for you to sign
in the coming days

and I'll make the
arrangements for that.

- Thank you William.

We'll see you at the
wake this evening?

- Of course.

- Congratulations.

You and I have a
lot to talk about now.

[gentle intense music]

- There's a wake tonight?

- In Martin's honor.

Ironic really.

He never set foot in a church
all the time I knew him.

- And you were
Martin's oldest friend,

you don't feel
hard done by in the will?

- Martin's will does make
one other stipulation,

that I remain its executor

and Julia's legal advisor
for the next three years.

- For which you'll claim
a salary.

- A modest one.

- Was Martin planning
on making a new will?

- He was.

- And what was in it?

- Martin didn't confide
things in advance to anyone,

even me.

- Maybe he'd guessed your
feelings for Cynthia.

- What do you mean?

- How long have you two
been seeing each other?

- A couple of months,
it wasn't serious.

- And Martin didn't know?

- We were the least
of his worries.

- Like what?

- I've said as much
as I'm prepared to.

- Look, I don't have
time for this,

what was Martin worried about?

- Let me go, your hurting me.

[soft dramatic music]

Ow, what the?

- If you can't tell me
what Martin was planning

then I'll know you're lying
about him

and that means
you're the killer.

- No, you've got it all wrong.

- Tell me who Martin
was worried about!

- You wouldn't believe me!

- That's for me to decide!

- I was beginning
to think I'd lost you.

- Not yet.

How do you feel?

- Terrible, but at
least I'm still here.

- How did you get
on with Angela?

- I don't think the
housekeeper's involved,

no opportunity.

How did you get on?

- Better.

I had to bend a few rules

but I'm pretty sure
I know who did it,

just not how it was done.

I still need some answers.

- From who?

- The killer.

[soft intense music]

He should be home by now.

- Look Richard I'm,

really struggling,
I don't know if I can--

- Hey hey hey, hang in there.

We're near the end, okay?

I promise.

Hello?

David?

[soft dramatic music]

He was killed from behind

just like Martin.

Christ!

I'll check the house.

[soft dramatic music]

You okay?

- Game's already
shutting itself down.

[dramatic instrumental music]

- Things have
disappeared inside as well.

We've got to access Sherlock.

- We need some new theory,

or he won't help us.

Maybe.

You're getting stronger again,
aren't you?

We must have some new theory.

- I just thought of something.

- What?

- Let's go.

- Good evening, Richard.

- Access Sherlock.

- Sherlock can only
be accessed once,

are you sure you wish to--

- Access Sherlock.

- Thank you Richard,
Sherlock is ready.

[upbeat instrumental music]

- It's okay.

You go.

- A lovely piece,
don't you think?

We're playing
Monteverdi's L'Orfeo.

The earliest opera on record.

Dated 1607, and it's a great
story too.

The legend of Orpheus's
journey to the underworld.

His wife, Euridice,
dies of a snake bite

the day after their wedding.

Stricken with grief,

Orpheus makes the perilous
journey down to the underworld

to bring her back.

After much suffering
and sacrifice, he fails.

So he goes to his father,
the god Apollo,

and asks for his help.

Apollo tells him

that he'll be able to see his
wife's image in the stars.

- But he'll never
be with her again.

- You know your classics.

Excellent.

You should have left her behind.

- We're solving this together.

- Honorable but foolish.

She's doomed.

You need to think of yourself.

- We're getting
out of this together.

Who are they?

- Some people to
help us if need be.

Normally we have
a larger crowd but

as Help Desk told you,

we're not running at full
capacity today.

- Help Desk told me a lot today.

What's really going on here?

- What do you think is going on?

- I know that I'm real,
but apart from that.

- How do you know that?

What an arrogant assumption!

Back in the real world
you were real.

In here all bets are off.

We're both in a
game we can't control.

However I have the
advantage of knowing

I can never be real,

you do not.

- So what do I do?

- Your only chance is to
play the game and win.

Just play the game Richard.

I'm so glad you have an
artistic side to you.

It's such a vital
part of one's soul

and one's profession.

Especially if that profession

is the detection of crime.

- We need your
help with this case.

- Of course you do.

You've just discovered
David Mitchell's body

and he was your chief suspect.

- Yes.

- A second murder either
complicates matters

or clarifies them, which is it?

- Clarifies.

I know who killed
Martin Donovan,

but not how it was done.

- There is one infallible method

of detecting crime, Richard.

A psychology of human nature.

Every human act, large or small,

is the direct expression
of one's personality.

Just as an expert can
analyze a piece of music,

so can a great criminologist

analyze a crime and tell you

who committed it
and for your sake,

how it was committed.

First.

Let us look at the
method of the crime.

Would you agree
that our friend here

is the same body
type as the victim?

- Yes.

- Strangulation is a very

intimate form of killing.

The murderer
came up from behind.

- What are you doing?

- I'm helping you, Richard.

You think this man is real?

What can we
deduce from this method?

- Martin knew
and trusted his killer.

He felt safe with them
standing behind him.

- What else?

- You're not using a great deal

of upper body strength.

Physically, the killer
could be anyone

and they were
prepared to take huge risks.

- Correct.

These points should help you

when you make
your final accusation.

- What about how
the crime was committed?

- The murder of Martin Donovan

is a work of art.

It is from any
standard view point,

an impossible crime.

Which implies what?

- That I need a
different view point.

- Tell me, Richard,

have you read Watson's
stories about me?

- Yes, when I was young.

- What was my famous motto?

The one I used to
solve many crimes?

Come on!

- Once you have eliminated
all other possibilities,

whatever remains
must be the truth.

- Well, not my exact
words but close enough.

And yet you have
failed to apply this

to your own case.

- 10 seconds after
Martin entered his study,

there's no way the killer
could have escaped.

They all swore blind they
saw someone enter the study.

Someone.

That means.

- Yes.

- Thank you.

- You're welcome.

And take my other
advice and leave her.

You can't win this game
together, you know that.

- [Catherine] He's right.

- We're getting
out of this together.

- No.

No.

It's over for me.

Sherlock!

You have to assist me too.

I demand to speak to you alone.

- What are you doing?

- I don't want him here.

Get out of this
nightmare for all of us.

- Gentlemen.

[dramatic instrumental music]

- [Richard] Wait!

No!

Wait!

[shouting]

- It's going to be a lovely
evening, do you have plans?

- I'm ready to submit
my final report.

- If you're wrong in any way,

you lose all your points.

- I understand that.

I'm ready.

- Very well.

You'll need to address your
suspects, please go to them--

- I know where they are.

[dramatic opera music]

Where are they?

They have to be here.

It's the wake tonight.

I've solved the case!

Am I supposed to pray?

Beg for forgiveness?

What's going on?

Virus?

The Ouroboros, it's the
only piece that doesn't fit.

The symbol of eternity.

Repeating over and over.

Does it have any relevance to
your father?

- Nothing.

- That's somebody's sick joke.

- [Richard] It's their
signature, the hackers.

- You've got no rights and
they can hold you forever.

- Who are you protecting?

[dramatic opera music]

I, Richard Manning,
officially submit in my report

that the Ouroboros is your
signature.

You created this
virus to punish us.

To put us under pressure,

under exhaustion, under misery.

You want to treat us
all like rats in a maze,

damn you!

I have to get back to my family,

they're not your enemy.

I'm not your enemy.

Now let me finish this,
then I'm going home.

- [Samantha] Who are
you talking to?

- Good evening.

It's been one hell of a day.

- Look, this is hardly the time.

- I know who
killed your brother.

I know how and why it was done.

That person also killed
David Mitchell this afternoon.

- Who is it?

- First, I need to tell you
how I came to my conclusions.

The key has never been who
done it, but how it was done.

And why, why did the
killer wipe the whole room

clear of fingerprints?

As if the killer wanted
to highlight

that they'd been in
the room for some time.

Why?

Once you've eliminated
all other possibilities,

whatever remains
must be the truth.

Let's apply that
rule to this case.

Martin Donovan entered
the study at 6:14 p.m.

Julia, you and Samantha
went into the dining room

about 10 seconds
after that, correct?

- Yes, no more than that.

- So, applying our rule,

that's the only time our
killer could have escaped.

- But that's impossible.

It took longer than that
just to kill Martin.

- Unless, if Martin
Donovan was already dead

and the man you
saw entering the study

was not Martin.

- This is crazy.

- Are you saying
we're all lying?

- Not all of you.

Let's review the facts.

Martin spoke with
David in the hallway.

He then entered the living room,

spoke briefly with Samantha.

Then he went into his study.

Julia, William, Cynthia,

did any of you
actually speak with Martin?

- No, but I saw him.

- I did, too.

- Me too.

- What you saw was a man
of Martin's size and build

wearing the same glasses
and identical suit.

The lights were low.

You were across the
other side of the room

focused on other things.

Why shouldn't it
have been Martin?

Who else could it be?

If my theory is correct

it means that David was lying

when he said he spoke with
Martin in the hallway,

it also means that
someone else is lying.

The person that
planned this entire thing.

You waited until
Martin entered the study

then you went in there.

- What do you want Samantha?

[soft intense music]

[groaning]

- It's done.

- I played tennis today.

I haven't played for ages.

- [William] How was it?

- [Cynthia] It was exhausting.

- Wish me luck.

- Excuse me.

- Hi.

- Yes, oh my goodness, lovely.

- I belong to a club, yeah.

- So that's how you
killed your brother,

ingenious but very risky.

- [Samantha] I like
taking risks.

- [Richard] Initially I thought

David and Julia
could be involved

but it was obvious from
the way he talked about her

that he didn't have
any respect for her.

William confessed to me that
he'd seen you two together.

- I offered him the two
things he's always wanted.

Company and me.

- But you had no intention
of him having either.

This afternoon,
after the will reading,

you both went to his place
to celebrate, he thought.

Instead you slit his throat.

- What proof do you have?

- David was foolish.

He kept the duplicate you
made of Martin's suit.

It's hanging in his wardrobe.

- That doesn't link me.

- It does if your hair and
fibers are found in the lining,

which they will be
if you made it.

- Why would I want
to kill my brother?

- Inheriting $40 million
is a good incentive.

Martin's new will would have
reduced that considerably.

I know he wrote a new will

because I found a fragment
you missed clearing up.

But that's not the main reason.

You've always been dependent
on Martin financially,

something you've
always resented.

And then he was going to
marry someone who make sure

you got even less
money in the future.

You killed Martin to
get your inheritance

and as revenge for
the way he treated you.

- Is that it?

- He left you out in the cold.

Your own brother.

You felt trapped in this
existence,

you saw your
chance to take everything,

kill Martin, escape.

But you failed.

- Congratulations, Richard.

[dramatic opera music]
[clapping]

[soft eerie music]

- Is this the virus?

Is there no end?

Why can't I solve this?
