TREVOR: I can't believe you came
back, after what you did.

MACKENZIE: I mean, it's been six
years and still no-one here likes me.

COLIN: Sorry? Who ARE you?
Mackenzie Clarke.

Detective Inspector,
Metropolitan Police.

Mackenzie used to have your job.
Why'd you leave?

COLIN: Is there anything going on between
Mackenzie Clarke and Glenn Strong?

REGGIE: Leaving him at
the altar six years ago,

flying to London and never
speaking to him again.

The boss was gonna be
her mother-in-law?!

MACKENZIE: What's the situation?
Is there gonna be an inquiry?

Say it'll be a matter of months.
Months?

We are the only station
in the whole of Australia

that will employ you,
even temporarily.

(SIGHS)

MAN: OK, guys.
Three, two, one.

Hey, Jadies! Congratulations!

It's the end of our
8-week running program.

And today's the day we put all
of our hard work to the test.

I'm here with Curtis.
Hey, Jadies!

(LAUGHS) So, we are on the start
line of the annual Cove 10K,

in the beautiful Botanical
Gardens in Dolphin Cove.

Wherever you are in the
world, Jadies,

I hope that you can join
with us in running 10 k

and discovering what
we're capable of.

OK.

Make sure you've had
your Jade Elevate,

stay hydrated,
and get ready to be your absolute best.

Whoo!

(CHEERING)

Go, Jadies!

Go, Jadies! Whoo-hoo!

(LAUGHS)

OK. Great.
I think we've got it.

Uh, now I'm getting you at
the drink station, yeah?

Perfect. OK. See you there.

MAN 2: (AMPLIFIED) All
runners, are you ready?

(CHEERING)

MAN 2: On your marks!

Get set!

(HORN BLASTS)

(CHEERING)

(PHONE ALERT CHIMES)

RECORDING: Hi. Mackenzie, it's...
it's Curtis Faleafa.

I know we've never really spoken, but...
..I need your help...

or more people are gonna die.

(RECIPIENT'S PHONE RINGS)

RECORDING: Hey.
You've reached Curtis.

I can't come to the phone right
now, so...

if you just leave your name and
number, that'd be s...

(SIGHS)

(TYRES SCREECH)

You are NOT coming
through here.

Road's closed.

I need to get milk.
Well, you need mil... Oh, Shelley.

No worries.

Just mind the runners. Yep.

Uh!

You let HER through!

Take care and
have a nice day.

DAISY: Ah! Mackenzie Clarke.
Oh. Hi, Daisy.

Hi!

I heard you were back.

Temporarily.

(PANTS) Are you, um...
..you trying to get through?

Road's closed.

You let Shelley through.

Come on, Trev!

She shouldn't
even be back here.

(SIGHS)

I don't WANT to be back
here, Trevor, but I am,

and because of that,
I'm in a bad mood all the time,

and I'm just looking for
someone to take it out on.

Is that going to be you?

No.

Good.

Remember that.

And act accordingly.

(LAUGHS)

(PANTS)

At this pace, it's a PB.

No rush. Let's just stay relaxed,
get a drink, get through it.

(PANTS)

MAN: Alright, guys.
Let's get a reel.

Feeling good, babe?
Yeah, 100%.

Jade? Give us a wave.

(PANTS) (PANTS)

Hi, Jadies! (LAUGHS)

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

REGGIE: Honestly,
the most beautiful place in the world

and these galoots
just bespoil it.

We should have stocks out
the front of the surf club

for anyone who litters,
and then just throw rotten fruit at them.

(LAUGHS) That's a
human rights violation.

Oh! Human rights!

Hey, hey. Look who's coming!

Well, go, guys! Come on, Col!
Come on, Glenn!

Whoo-hoo! Nice form, Glenn.

(PANTS)

No!

Missed it by 30 seconds.

Doesn't matter, mate.
Beautiful run.

How are you not even puffing?

Whoo! (LAUGHS)

Oh! Thank you.

Curtis, get in here.
(SHUTTER CLICKS)

Oh. Did you go a bit
hard at the end there?

Are you OK?

Curtis?

Curtis? (GROANS)

Curtis!

Curtis?

Curtis!

Somebody help!

Curtis!

(INAUDIBLE)

He collapsed just after the finish line.
Looks like a heart attack.

I didn't see it but,
um, heard the crowd.

Hang on.

Were you here?

You actually came out to watch a...
..fun run?

A mother comes out
to support her son?

Shocking.

Glenn's here.

Yeah. And Colin.

Curtis Faleafa.

You know him?

He was below you at
school, wasn't he?

Was he a runner?
800. He was good.

MACKENZIE: Listen to this.

CURTIS: (ON RECORDING) Hi.
Mackenzie.

It's... it's Curtis Faleafa.

I know we've never really spoken, but...
..I need your help...

or more people are gonna die.

When'd you get that?

About an hour ago.

Did you call him back?

No answer.
Guess he was running.

So, he leaves you that,
and then soon after... dead.

What are the reasons a fit guy like
Curtis would just drop dead after a race?

It can happen.
Undiagnosed heart disorder.

Sudden cardiac arrest.
Aneurysm.

It's rare, though.

What's that?

Phone number?
MACKENZIE: Yeah, maybe.

Looks like signs of
vomit in his mouth.

Maybe he just went too hard.

Not based on his time.

He's sweating a bit.

(LAUGHS) Just run 10 k.

MACKENZIE: Or...
..it's poison.

Maybe, but nothing
familiar in the symptoms.

People do just
have heart attacks.

Yeah, but... do they have them an
hour after they call a police officer

saying that they're in trouble,
that people are gonna die?

(SIGHS)

Who was with him?

His partner.

Jade. (SIGHS)

McCready?

Um... before we, uh...
You know, just to clarify.

So you're officially
working here now?

So it seems.

So I guess it means I should probably
take the lead in investigations.

Does it?

Well, it makes sense, I think,
as a detective senior constable.

I'm a DI.

Well... not strictly a rank
we have in Australia, though.

Different systems.

Still, what would it be here?

To avoid confusion,
just so we don't step on each other's toes.

Keep your toes
out of the way.

I won't step on them.

How does someone
just die like that?

We didn't even go that fast.

You know, it was just
about participating and...

and showing the Jadies that just
showing up and getting out there

is more important than speed.

Sorry. The Jadies?

My followers.

COLIN: Uh, online.

Jade's an influencer.

I don't really
like that term.

It doesn't really reflect
the community I've built up.

It's not just about me.

Right.

Is that why your
company's called Jade?

We focus on exercise
and wellness.

But we've also expanded into activewear
and exercise equipment and supplements.

And it's successful?

JADE: Yeah.

We've helped a lot of
people be their best.

Did you notice anything different
about Curtis this morning?

No.

Was he worried
about anything?

(SIGHS)

Just the usual.

Work. The business.

I don't know.
I guess what everybody worries about.

CURTIS: (ON RECORDING) Hi.
Mackenzie.

It's... it's Curtis Faleafa.

I know we've never really spoken, but...
..I need your help...

or more people are gonna die.

What?

MACKENZIE: He left that on
my phone just before he died.

Do you have any idea
what that could be about?

None whatsoever.

Did Curtis eat or drink
much up until he collapsed?

No. We fast in the mornings.

Nothing during the run?

I don't think so.

Oh, wait. Hang on.
He did have a drink.

Where from?

Yep. This is the
only drink station.

Once they get out on the bush track,
it's the only place we can get water in.

And could anyone else get
access to the water or the cups?

Oh. Everyone.

Once they get cracking,
it's like a zoo.

Flat out from go to whoa.
I can barely keep up.

And do you hand
them the cups?

MAN: Fill 'em up, put 'em
out, people take 'em.

Then they chuck 'em
all over the place.

Right.

Before we move on,
do you know what this is?

Yeah. I don't know.

Phone number?

Thanks.

(CLEARS THROAT)

So Keith and anyone in the race
had access to the drink station?

You seriously think it's poison?
Mm-hm.

Because Glenn said his symptoms
could just be a heart attack.

Yes, but with someone so young,
with no pre-existing condition?

And it doesn't explain the
message he left on my phone.

But Curtis is
the only victim.

Uh... he could have
eaten or drank anything.

Mmm.

Let's look into that.

Everything that went into his
body before and during the race.

Including the cups?

Including the cups.

All of them.

(SIGHS)

GLENN: So, to find any trace
evidence of poison in the cups,

I add solvent and water to each cup...
(SIGHS)

combine it with the other
samples, 10 batches.

We then run them through
the desktop centrifuge.

And you're looking
for the poison?

Not strictly.

Anything unexpected that could have
produced the sort of symptoms we saw.

And?

Nothing so far.
And I've done most of them.

There has to be something.

Does there?

Look at all these cups.

The idea that somehow there's poison in one of them...
(BEEPING) ..is absolute...

Oh! Batch three, a hit.

You're having a laugh.

What is it? I don't know yet.

Have to send the samples to the labs
in town to go through the machine.

Could take a while,
but it's something.

So one of these cups
has something in it?

At least one.
It could be more.

But no-one else
has any symptoms.

It had to be
intended for Curtis.

There's...
no outside chance it was random?

Not random!

He left me a message.

So you're saying, of all the hundreds
of runners, hundreds of cups,

the killer managed to get the
poisoned one into Curtis's hand?

(LAUGHS) Yeah.

Well... it...
it's impossible. (LAUGHS)

Apparently not.

But how?

Oh!

Come on.

There's no way anyone could
get there to poison a cup.

I told you,
the place was chaos.

Hundreds of runners
pounding through the bush.

They're all grabbing cups.

(RUNNER PANTS)

And you knew Curtis?

I guess.

You guess? Yes or no?

Yeah.

He was a friend.

You don't seem very sad.

Well, we didn't really see
each other that much anymore.

But you used to?

I used to coach him in
footy, for years.

COLIN: What happened?

I stopped coaching.

What happened to your hand?

I caught it in the boat rack.

Hopeless.

PHILOMENA: OK,
we've got Curtis Faleafa.

He's 32, super-fit.

He is the partner of a
successful influencer.

She doesn't like that word.
(LAUGHS)

Right.

Um, he is, uh,
poisoned by something in a cup

that he took from the,
uh, drink station.

Mm-hm - Glenn is
narrowing down

which of the cups had our
suspicious substance in it.

Once we find it...
(SNAPS FINGERS) ..that is our weapon.

And we're sure Curtis
was the target?

Mm-hm.
He knew he was in danger.

Because of the message
he left on your phone?

That couldn't be a coincidence?
(LAUGHS)

No, it could.

If coincidences happened,
which they don't.

Keith Cole was staffing
the drink station.

He knew Curtis,
but he was being funny about it.

Something going on there.
(HUMS)

No motive that we can see so far,
but he did potentially have opportunity.

What are you...
what are you up to?

Oh, I just thought I'd put
my craft skills to good use.

I was the founding member of the
Dolphin Cove Crafty Cats. (LAUGHS)

Murder board.

Who else had opportunity
and access to the cups?

Oh - well, I've put together
a timeline of Curtis's race,

based on what I
found on the socials.

Here we are.

The start of it.

MACKENZIE: Mm-hm.

Hey, Jadies! Congratulations!

It's the end of our
8-week running program.

Today's the day...
Here's another one.

Whoo! Yes!

Look. Curtis drank from that.

JADE: Go, Jadies!
No, she did too.

It can't be that.
FELIX: And here's the last one.

MACKENZIE: Yep.
That's the drink station.

FELIX: And there's Jade.
COLIN: And there's Curtis.

Feeling good, babe?
Yeah, 100%.

MAN: Jade, give us a wave.

(LAUGHS) Hi, Jadies! (LAUGHS)

That's all I've got.

So we've got Keith Cole at
the scene as well as Jade.

Mmm - who's Australia's most successful
wellness entrepreneur, selling supplements.

Famous for triumphing
over cancer.

Twice. What's that?

It was the second time.

She also had cancer when she was
in high school. Do you remember?

Mmm. Oh, yeah. Of course.
Year 9. Yeah, yeah. Mmm.

She was sick for months.
She had the chemo, the works.

REGGIE: Yeah, she was such a quiet
kid, then all of a sudden,

everyone was rallying around
her, raising money.

Footy team shaved
their heads.

It was amazing.
Yeah, and then she beat it.

Well, it came back, and she beat
it, using only her supplements.

But this time, she turned it into a
global wellness empire worth $40 million.

Oh, God, you're joking!

For juices?

Uh, supplements.

It was leaked a couple of weeks ago
that Jade's brand was gonna be sold

to a large private
equity firm in Singapore.

That was the price.

Where would that money go?

Uh, Jade's company is owned 50/50 by...
..Jade and Curtis.

Right. So if he dies...
COLIN: Jade gets the lot.

40 million bucks.

Is that enough to
poison your partner?

COLIN: Wow.

We're in the wrong business.

Maybe I SHOULD start
taking those bribes.

In this town?

What would you get?

10 bucks and a stubby?
(LAUGHS) (LAUGHS)

So, since you're staying
in Dolphin Cove... For now.

Does that mean in terms of
renting your place out...?

Oh, yeah.

Oh, sorry.

Oh, no, it's fine.
No big deal. (LAUGHS)

Happy where I am, you know,
looking over the, uh, pub car park.

It's, um... it's lively.

(LAUGHS)

Mmm.

Are you suggesting
I'm responsible?

WOMAN: Yep.
I'm just gonna take this out.

Well, you do stand to gain
$20 million from his death.

How much money do
you think I need?

I loved Curtis more than
any amount of money.

And it's not even
about that for me.

I was just as happy when I was...
..mixing up supplements in my mum's kitchen

and selling them
at the market.

You've done pretty well out of
it, though.

Look. I'm not going to say I
don't like what money CAN do.

I just hate what I
have to do for it.

Endless posting, reels, photos,
living my whole life online.

I'm really looking forward
to selling my business

and throwing my
phone into the sea.

MAN: Jade. Sorry.

Uh, just to let you know,
I've cancelled the filming we had scheduled,

and I've put a simple message of
in memoriam on all the accounts.

Thank you.

(PHONE RINGS) Sorry.

Do you mind if I just...?

(SPEAKS FOREIGN LANGUAGE)

Who's he?

Nick. Our manager.

Mmm.

Hey, do you want to grab
a drink at the surf club?

With you?

Uh, in... in theory, yes.

Why?

In the spirit of teamwork.

Properly welcome you
back to Dolphin Cove.

Oh,
I won't be here that long.

Still.

It's a thing people do
when they work together.

Not really MY thing.

Sure. (LAUGHS)

DAISY: Is Mackenzie
coming in for a drink?

Doesn't like coming for a
drink, apparently.

Doesn't like people
as far as I can tell.

Or anything.

(CAN HISSES) I get it.

She's a better
detective than you.

And you're worried. (LAUGHS)

She's NOT a bad
detective than me.

Colin, it's been nine months since my
bike got nicked and you got nothing.

The case is still open!

(LAUGHS) They left the
front wheel behind.

Whoever pinched it
couldn't have got that far.

I am a good detective.

I was managing fine
without a partner.

Don't need some... hot shot
thinking she's better than everyone.

She's stuck-up, dismissive and
walks out on everybody all the time.

(CLEARS THROAT)

(SIGHS) Oh.

How much of that do
you think she...?

Knowing Mackenzie
Clarke, every word.

(SIGHS)

MACKENZIE: What
have you found?

I've narrowed it down to the exact
cup Curtis must have drunk from.

Partial print.
Nothing that helps.

And Keith was wearing gloves,
so there wouldn't be any of HIS prints.

I'm, uh, still waiting to hear back
about the blood tox samples I sent off.

Mmm.

You know Trevor had a go
at me again this morning?

He can hold a grudge.

He's not the only one.

Yeah.

I guess there was a bit of ill
feeling when you left town.

Uh, he just grabbed
the cup off the table.

How could the killer make sure
that he took the right one?

GLENN: Maybe it is random.

Really?

Even after the victim left
a message on my phone?

I'm just saying,
it's possible it wasn't a targeted murder.

You think I'm wrong?

I would never say that.

Mmm.

'Cause you're scared.
I'm not scared.

No, you look scared.

OK. Mmm.

Shall we bet on it, then?

Ooh! Don't lose your head.

(LAUGHS)

Same stakes as always?

Takeaway from Franco's
fish and chips?

Yeah, you're on.

Let me know when tox is in.

I will hand-deliver it
myself AND claim my winnings.

Ooh! Good luck with that.

GLENN: Frankie!

(DOG PANTS AND BARKS)

I mean,
I guess she wants to go with you.

She can stay at your house for the
night, if that's OK.

It's fine with me.

It's fine with me, then.
(DOOR OPENS)

DAISY: Hello? (DOOR CLOSES)

In here. Oh. Hey, Mac.

Heya. Mwah!

I got us some takeaway.

Yeah, Mac is, uh,
taking Frankie.

Just for the night.

OK. (LAUGHS)

(LAUGHS)

I... I should let... uh, leave...
let you guys... Yeah. See ya, Mac.

Bye.

GLENN: Best
behaviour, Frankie.

(SIGHS) (DOG BARKS)

(SIGHS)

Come on.

(SIGHS)

Frankie!

You could have told me.

(DOG WHINES)

JADE: (ON VIDEO) Amazing
news, Jadies.

I'm officially in remission

and so fortunate to have gotten
here without conventional medicine.

It just goes to show that with determination
and support, you can achieve anything.

I believe in you guys.

This account, Frankie,
it's called just-in-time.

Pops up over and over again.

So many comments.

Who ARE you?

And why are you so
obsessed with Jade?

Any thoughts?

(DOG WHINES)

Mmm.

(LAUGHTER AND
INDISTINCT CHATTER)

MACKENZIE: Hey!

Ah! This is private property!

Good morning, Mackenzie.

But you can't
walk through here.

Otherwise we have to go all the way around.
It takes us forever.

What, an extra two minutes?

Your mum doesn't have
a problem with it.

Well, I'm not my mum.

No. People like her.

(ALL LAUGH)

(SCOFFS)

Off.

Off you go.

She runs us a bath for after,
if you feel so inclined.

I'm not so inclined.

Why am I not surprised?

Come on.

Come on, girls.

(SIGHS)

(DOG WHINES)

Seriously?

(DOG WHINES)

(PHONE ALERT CHIMES)

Here you go. Flat white.

Extra-weak.

And extra-hot?
We've talked about this.

That's as hot as I can get it before
the milk burns and the coffee's ruined.

OK. I'm here.
What do you want?

Erm... just wanted to start the
day by shouting my colleague.

I know you don't like coffee, so
tea, juice - whatever you want.

Mmm.

Uh, chocolate milk. (LAUGHS)

You mean like children have?

No, that's absolutely fine.

Erm, one of those, please, Daisy.
(CLEARS THROAT)

How you putting up with him?

Me?!

She's the difficult one.

Oh, my God.
Found my pink bike yet?

Remember,
it's missing the front wheel?

The case is still open.
DAISY: Oh!

I have been
walking everywhere.

You should see my blisters.

OK.

You're winding me up.
Brilliant.

(LAUGHS)

There you go.

Thanks.

Mmm.

Glenn's an idiot.
He should have said something.

I... I... I never would have...
No, it's OK.

No, no, no, it's...
it's not OK.

Common courtesy,
in my opinion.

If it helps,
I cracked it at him after you left.

Yeah - that...
..that helps quite a lot, actually.

Look, before we, erm...
..last night,

you may have heard me speaking
a little bit out of turn.

Sorry is what I'm saying.

(SLURPS)

It wasn't appropriate...
..or professional.

And I am both those
things generally.

I want us to have a good relationship...
(PHONE RINGS) ..as partners.

Work together.
That sort of thing. You know.

A team. (PHONE RINGS)

Felix?

FELIX: I've found something
interesting in Curtis's messages.

Go on.

FELIX: Pretty heated exchange
with Nick Dosanjh, the manager.

MACKENZIE: Alright.
Send it through.

Colin, come on!

Ow!

(SPEAKS FOREIGN LANGUAGE)

(INHALES)

Ooh.

The deal a bit shaky?

What?

Well, my Mandarin's a bit
rusty, but it sounded like.

Don't worry.
Everything's on track.

And it is.

On track.
With Curtis out of the way anyway.

What?

I won't sign off on this deal until
we have a proper conversation.

(SIGHS)

Curtis sent you that
message about two weeks ago.

Conversation about what?

I never found out.

All that time and
you never asked?

Well, he didn't bring it up again,
so I figured it was just a case of the jitters.

Pretty normal when
it's such a big deal.

It would have been fine.
What WOULD that have cost you?

(LAUGHS)

Your commission
on 40 million?

I don't do it for the money.

How much?

10%, plus a bonus.

You must have been angry.

Angry? (SCOFFS) No.

I... Curtis just wanted
to be across everything.

Um... they're both like that.

I mean... look at this.

Supplement ingredients,
all supplied locally

because they want to be in
control of their supply chain.

Costs more, but that's just
the type of people they are.

I've been working with them since Jade
was selling her juices on a market stall.

They both just care
about the details.

And now the sale's
back on track?

We're going to Singapore
soon for the launch.

Your movements during
the, uh, fun run,

you filmed Curtis and Jade's
reel at the start line

and then you took another of
them at the halfway point.

Mm-hm. At the drink station.

Jade recced it the morning of the run
and thought it had the best framing.

Do you know what this is?

Looks like a phone number?

(PHONE RINGS) I
don't recognise it.

(SIGHS) (PHONE BEEPS)

Mate. I've been on the
phone with them all morning.

(RECORDED MESSAGE
IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE)

FELIX: Another
recorded message.

Belarus. Not connected.

Oh. Right.

Is this it?

Is what it? This!

Police life.

Dialling random
numbers all day.

Picking up cups.

Like a glorified
streetsweeper.

Not even.
They'd have a better uniform.

Well, one of those
cups was a vital clue.

Yeah, but we should be out
on the beat with the people.

You know,
wearing out a bit of shoe leather.

Community policing - that's
what I volunteered for.

You volunteered to
help the police.

And we're helping Mac by calling...
Mmm.

That number in all these countries
to see if we can work out what it is.

And sometimes police work
is dull and repetitive.

That doesn't mean
it's not important.

I... I just feel like
I have more to offer.

Fine. You take Zimbabwe
and work backwards.

Phone? That's...
it's really not my thing.

Really? Yeah.

Because I've heard you calling in
on the local radio more than once

to give your thoughts
on councillors.

Much of it borderline
defamatory.

It is all true, Felix.

Ms Rocco,
you can go home if you want to.

It's up to you.

Alright.

I'll go and ring
Zimbabwe, then.

(DOG BARKS AND PANTS)

Hello, Frankie.

(SIGHS)

She behave herself?

Fine.

What did you find
in the autopsy?

No signs of heart disease or anything that
would naturally induce a heart attack.

OK, so that confirms the theory that
whatever he drank from that cup caused it.

Are we still waiting
on blood tox?

GLENN: I did warn you
it'd take a while.

But given that a substance
was found in one of the cups,

and as much as I hate to admit it,
I think it's safe to say he was poisoned.

MACKENZIE: Yeah,
but how did the killer poison just one cup

and make sure Curtis
drank from it?

One more thing.

There was a bruise
under Curtis's eye.

I didn't see it.
You wouldn't.

It was at least a week old
and concealed by make-up.

What are you doing?

Left eye.

Keith Cole had a cut
on his right hand.

What happened to your hand?

Caught it in the boat rack.

Oh, oh, oh!

Oh, oh, oh!
Mac, before you go...

Glad to see it's not
just me she walks out on.

(LAUGHS)

I mean rooms.

Walks out of rooms.
Not weddings.

Well, that's also true,
but not something we need to discuss,

or even comment on really.

(LAUGHS)

Don't worry about it.

MACKENZIE: Right - we've
got a poisoned cup,

a punch to the face, a $40 million deal
and a random international phone number

which Felix is still
trying to track down.

(GROANS) That's not much to go on.
You are joking.

I keep a couple in the fridge.
They really are brilliant.

REGGIE: Well, it looks like a
shakedown to me. COLIN: Uh, no.

They contain omega-3 and
turmeric, to reduce inflammation,

and activated charcoal, which absorbs...
Mmm... toxins in the body.

It's brilliant stuff.
(LAUGHS)

(COUGHS)

(CLEARS THROAT) Sure, you know, the,
uh, taste is a little... robust,

but that's the sacrifice you make for...
..top performance.

Do you want a... No, thanks.

COLIN: Mmm.

OK. So poison, check. Mm-hm.

How... you don't know.

Have you got anything else?
Yes.

I'm going to talk to Keith
Cole about the cut on his hand,

and I spent the night on Jade's
very active social media account.

Oh, these people, living their lives online.
It's a sickness.

Actually, Jade did a full
digital detox earlier this year.

Oh, what, she left her phone
in the car for 20 minutes?

No.
Took a couple of months off.

Went to Thailand.
No phone. No anything.

So how did you know about it?

Well... she... she posted about it
online when she got back, obviously.

The resort looked fantastic.
(LAUGHS)

Oh, uh, yes. Hello?

Um... hi.

My name is, uh,
Constable Felix Wilkinson.

I'm a police officer in Dolphin
Cove, uh, Australia.

I'm investigating...

Sorry. Do you know the
name Curtis Faleafa?

Oh, yes.

I DO wear trousers, most days, thank you for
asking, but I just need you... (LAUGHS)

Drycleaner in Gabon.

They've got a two-for-one
going on trousers.

I don't think he's heard
of a Curtis Faleafa.

OK, anyway.

There was one account
that kept popping up,

liking, responding to every
single one of Jade's posts.

Who? Hm.

Username was...
..just-in-time.

Now, the profile picture looked familiar,
but I couldn't put my finger on it.

I did some research.

Figured it out.

PHILOMENA: Oh.
Is that, um...?

Yeah. Justine Cole. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Cole, as in...?
Yeah, Keith Cole's daughter.

Hm. I didn't recognise
her at first.

Let's go talk to her.

Uh, she... she passed away.

About six months ago.
PHILOMENA: Mmm.

Mr Cole? Can you talk us through
how you injured your hand, again?

Uh... told you, it's on the...
..boat rack.

Not from punching
Curtis Faleafa?

He had a bruise under his left
eye, so...

you saying your hand,
that's just a coincidence?

OK.

Curtis and I fought. Yeah?

Fine.

About Justine?

I don't want to
talk about her.

But she is part of
this, Keith, isn't she?

Justine was a Jadie.

She liked every photo, commented on every
post, and then six months ago, it stops.

When she died.

She was obsessed with the supplements,
the exercise... everything.

She was...
..studying, living in the city.

We didn't get to
see her that often.

So we didn't know... we...
..we didn't know how sick she was.

And she was so devoted to Jade,
she didn't go and see a doctor, so...

she thought she could fix
herself, diet or... or whatever.

By the time we found
out, it was...

it was too late. (SOBS)

Jade...

killed my daughter.

There's...
there's no doubt in my mind!

So when you found out they were
selling the company for 40 million...?

I just thought it'd get...
(SNIFFS)

bigger and... and... and bigger and,
uh, more people would get sucked in,

just like Justine, so...
..I... I had to...

talk to Curtis,
I had to get him to do something.

You're a parasite! (GROANS)

or more people
are going to die.

Exactly.
COLIN: But he DIDN'T do anything.

That would have
made you angry.

I'm always angry.

I'll never stop being angry.

You put the poisoned cup down on the
table, the cup that killed him.

I didn't know
it was poisoned!

I... I... I was just filling them up
and putting them out as fast as I could!

You know, look,
I had nothing to do with this, I swear!

I was angry at Curtis,
at both of them.

I admit that.

But I would never...
..kill anyone.

Or more people
are going to die.

That's what Curtis
was getting at.

If the sale goes through,
more people will die.

But the sale IS
going through.

Exactly.

And if you blamed Jade for
the death of your daughter,

if you wanted to stop Jade's company
being sold globally, why not kill HER?

Maybe he meant to.

Then why not
hand her the cup?

(SIGHS) Maybe he tried.

Jade lied to us.

She said no-one had any sort of grudge against...
MAN: Coming right up!

COLIN: Against Curtis.

Yep. COLIN: I know.

We should talk to
her about that.

Mackenzie?

Well, let's go, then.

(SIGHS)

MACKENZIE: Why
did you lie to us?

Excuse me?

MACKENZIE: We asked you if anyone wanted to harm
Curtis, had a grudge against him.

You said... no.

So?

So, you forget to mention that Keith Cole
punched him in the face right outside?

Sorry, I had no idea.

Curtis said an exercise
band caught him in the eye.

Did you know what he and
Curtis fell out about?

I assume Justine.

Keith has always believed, incorrectly,
that we played a part in... her death.

Well, you did tell the world that your
supplements cured you, which she believed.

I never said anything about
my supplements curing me.

Oh, I watched the reel, Jade.

I have my story,
and I'm very honest about it.

But the Jade brand is about each of
us taking charge of our own bodies.

I had no control over
what Justine did.

You didn't mind the boost in
views she gave your page, though?

I had to block
her in the end.

And if I'm honest,
she was obsessed with me.

We're going to have
some more questions.

Well... I'm flying out to
Singapore tomorrow for the launch.

I'm sorry,
but that can't be rearranged.

Oh, one more thing.

Do you know what
this number could be?

I don't know. Maybe a bank account.
Who knows?

(DOOR OPENS)

What are you thinking
we'll get from this number?

Is it relevant?

Everything's relevant.

Jade McCready.

(LAUGHS) No, not a renewal.
She's never had one.

(INHALES)

Yep.

(DOOR CLOSES)

Looked like a new
supplement in there...

that Jade was drinking.

Maybe she was trialling it.
(LAUGHS)

OK.

OK.

876591.

8765912489. (DOOR OPENS)

87... 87... 87659...
(DOOR CLOSES) GLENN: Hello?

(SIGHS) ..or more
people are going to die.

Yeah?

I have called in a lot of
favours to get this tonight.

Blood tox?

I'm sending a bottle
of wine to their lab.

You're paying. Uh-huh.

What's in it?

Nicotine?! In liquid form.

In enough quantity,
it can induce a heart attack.

Nick. The manager.

Every time I've seen
him, he's been vaping.

He was at the drink station.
We know that.

But how could he poison one cup
and make sure Curtis took it?

It's the same
question every time!

When...
when was the last time you ate?

I... Um... I don't know.

I... No. I didn't have milk,
so couldn't have breakfast.

(SIGHS) That was yesterday.

Was it?

Mackenzie, for someone so
smart, how do you not understand

that you need food to live?

Wait! I eat food.

Tournament of Minds,
Brisbane, 2003?

Three days.
Not a cracker. (LAUGHS)

(GASPS)

I'll, uh, see what's in the fridge.
Uh-huh.

I was fine, by the way,
at Tournament of Minds.

You were hallucinating quadratic
equations on the ceiling.

Which I solved, I might add.

Jade Restore.

It's all there was.

You snooze, you lose, Col.

Mmm.

Finders keepers?

Mmm.

(SIGHS)

Mmm!

Mmm! Mmm!

What? (LAUGHS)

No good?

(LAUGHS)

Oh... Oh!

What is in this?!

(GAGS)

Mac?

(GASPS)

GLENN: Mac? You OK?

Mac? (GASPS)

Do you have anywhere
you need to be?

Why?

We've got some
phone calls to make.

RECORDING: Hi. Mackenzie.
It's... it's Curtis Faleafa.

I know we've never really spoken, but...
..I need your help...

or more people are gonna die.

Or more people
are going to die.

Curtis left that
message on my phone

bit over an hour before he
WAS one of those people...

poisoned, seemingly by a cup that
he picked up at the drink station

that was staffed
by Keith Cole.

There was one question
that we couldn't answer.

How could the killer make sure
that Curtis took the poisoned cup?

Then we learned that
the poison was nicotine.

(LAUGHS) What?

MACKENZIE: Well...
..you had access to liquid nicotine.

It's vape fluid.
(NICK SCOFFS)

MACKENZIE: You stood
to lose your 10% cut

if Curtis killed the
deal - it's $4 million.

And you were at the
drink station filming.

Jade, give us a wave.

Hey. (LAUGHS)

(LAUGHS) Go, Jadies!

(SCOFFS) I didn't
touch the cups.

(SNAPS FINGERS)

The killer wanted us
looking at the cups.

They wanted us spending all our
time, all our energy

trying to figure out how
the killer could make sure

that Curtis drank
from the poisoned cup.

But the cup wasn't
the murder weapon.

(GLOVE STRETCHES)

(CLEARS THROAT)

(CLEARS THROAT)

One of these was.

You handed him a drink from one of
those on the start line... Jade.

But I drank from that.

And who would suspect someone who drank
the exact same thing as the victim?

Surely if the nicotine
was in the bottle,

then you would have been
poisoned as well. (LAUGHS)

And you were.

(SCOFFS) I'm fine.

Because... the poison isn't
the only thing you drank.

You made sure you had one of your
Jade supplements before the race,

and then you kept drinking
them for 24 hours.

Every time we saw you,
you were drinking one.

Of course.
They support my recovery.

Especially those that you've been...
mixing up yourself.

Detective Senior Constable
Cartwright noticed

that they were a slightly
different colour.

Looked like a new
supplement in there.

Loaded with...?

Activated charcoal.

It contains omega-3 and turmeric,
which reduces inflammation,

and, uh, activated charcoal.

Which... absorbs toxin.

Including nicotine.

Especially if you drink enough of
it, and, boy, did you.

I mean...
you had a ready supply.

You... you are across every
step of your supply chain.

And you kept up
a steady intake.

And you planted a poisoned
decoy cup before the race

while you were looking for a location
for Nick to film from, to throw us off.

Why would I kill Curtis?

I loved him.

He was about to
reveal your secret.

Supplements didn't
cure your cancer.

You had surgery and
chemotherapy, Jade.

What?

MACKENZIE: But you knew,
gosh, if that got out,

well, your company, it would be
worthless, so you kept it a secret,

even from Curtis,
but news of the deal leaked...

which sent Keith to Curtis,
desperate for no more people to be harmed.

And that sent Curtis to you.

This whole life is fake!

And that sent Curtis on his own research,
which led him to... this number.

Now... we all thought it was
a phone number, didn't we?

Hm. Because, you know,
well, looks like one.

The only person who saw this number
and didn't say a phone number was you.

I don't know. Maybe a bank account.
Who knows?

Because you knew it wasn't a phone number.
You knew it was a patient ID.

Now, we had to call almost every
treatment facility in Australia,

but we got there in the end.

The Green Grass Institute...
..for Cancer.

This is ridiculous.

You think I could just disappear and
keep something like this a secret?

My whole life
is spent online.

Oh. What about
your digital detox?

I was in Thailand.

You didn't have a passport.

Jade McCready.

No, not a renewal.
She's never had one.

(INHALES)

I checked.

You really think I could have kept a
surgery, and chemo, from Curtis?

(LAUGHS) From everyone?

You had to, because no-one believed in Jade...
..more than him.

And chemotherapy,
it's the only thing that fits,

right down to you being
able to drink those,

uh, ugh, incredibly
strong-tasting supplements.

(COUGHS)

Mmm!

Mmm, mmm, mmm!

Chemotherapy,
it killed your sense of taste, Jade.

A warrant for the details of this
patient, it came through this morning.

FELIX: I've got the file...
..right here.

What's the name of that
patient, Felix?

I never meant to lie.

I promise.

The supplements really
did help at the start.

I... I... I was improving.

My follows went through the roof.
I had so much support!

It was just like when
I was sick at school.

And then I went downhill.

But by then, the sales started happening, and I...
I had to get better.

I had to!
So many people were relying on me.

I just...
I couldn't let anyone stop it.

Not even Curtis?

Oh!

(SIGHS)

Look, I really did love him.

Jade McCready, you are under arrest
for the murder of Curtis Faleafa.

(HANDCUFFS CLICK)

You're not obligated to say or do
anything unless you wish to do so.

(BIRDS SCREECH)

Activated charcoal. Has to be said.
Incredible stuff.

No more cramps.

And I went hard this morning.

God, you are still
drinking those things!

They're still good.

PHILOMENA: Mackenzie?

Want to walk out with me?

REGGIE: There it is.

FELIX: Can you stop leaving
your water bottle on my desk...

REGGIE: What?! ..please?

(BOTH LAUGH)

That was good work.

With the phone numbers.

Thank you.

Both of you.

Well, I mean,
it was 150 dead ends.

Wasn't it a bit of
a waste of time?

MACKENZIE: No.

Knowing it wasn't a phone number got us
thinking about what else it could be.

That's...
..solid police work.

It made the case.

I made the case!

(LAUGHS) WE.

Oh, she seemed more definitive
when she was talking to me.

It... was me.

I made the case.

PHILOMENA: You're a very good
detective, Mackenzie.

I mean, I'm not telling you
anything you don't already know.

I mean, you know as well as anyone
that your brain... it just...

works differently.

And that makes you
very good at your job.

But you're not the only one.

Right, I'm very proud of
the team that I've got here.

They're...
they're smart. They...

they work hard.
They look after each other.

Just don't be a
pain, Mackenzie.

(SIGHS)

When you, um...

left my son, you left a mess.

But you also walked
out on this station.

You walked out on me.

And you're a long way from making up for that.
Do you understand me?

I do.

COLIN: Why shouldn't I drink them?
REGGIE: Why?!

(LAUGHS) Why? (DOOR CLOSES)

Because she's a
murderer, mate.

So stop buying her stuff.
I'm off.

Ah!

See you all in the morning.
See ya.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Up to much tonight?

Every time.

Seriously. Just walks off.

Not a word.

Come on.

Where?

I am shouting you a smoothie.

Why?

It's a thing people do
when they work together.

I'm doing something nice here, Colin.
It's a 1-time offer.

Take it.

Alright, then.

MACKENZIE: Take your pick.
Any smoothie you want.

Uh, Very Berry, please.

Good choice.

Doesn't look like much.

Trust me.

You're not staying?
Not really a smoothie person.

Very Berry, coming up.

Pink bike. (WHIRRING)

Missing front wheel.

(WHIRRING)

(BELL RINGS)

(SIGHS)

To the victor the spoils.

That was the bet, wasn't it?

Yeah. Direct from
Franco's fish and chips.

Oh.

You can have it.

Oh,
it's fresh out of the oil.

Which, if I'm honest, maybe hasn't
been changed since you were last here.

Still.

You could have told me about
Daisy, you know.

I know.

She's brilliant.
She is perfect for you.

Yeah. Yeah, she is.

We always worked better
as friends anyway.

Did we?

Yeah. Yep.

Mm-hm.

Much clearer that way.

We work together.
Get along fine.

Happy days.

(SIGHS)

(ENGINE STARTS)

Enjoy that.

See you tomorrow.

Mmm.

♪ She'll be wearing pink pyjamas when she

(SCREAMS)

Ah! Ah! (COUGHS)

That's cold!

It's gonna give
me a heart attack!

Mackenzie! (SHOUTS)

Good morning, ladies!

People are killed by
those closest to them.

Happy birthday, bestie!

GLENN: Looks like
strangulation.

None of them were anywhere near the
salon at the time of the murder.

MACKENZIE: So if the killer was in full
view, how did they do it?

You either work
here or you don't.

HR, they want an answer in
the next couple of days.

YOU walked out on ME, Mac.

Of course I was
gonna move on.

Please let me talk.

Wait.

What was Troy throwing away?
(SHUTTER CLICKS)

Mackenzie! (SCREAMS)
