Sorry. Am I late?

Right on time, as always.

No nerves, Monique.

That boy is crazy with a capital C about you!

And, oof, is he handsome?!

My, my, if you don't want him...?

I think Dad might have something to say about that.

OK, everybody is seated.

Naomi sorted everyone.

I'll see you both inside.

You ready, babe?

Wow.

Just...

Wow!

Not yet, Ty!

RIPPLES OF LAUGHTER

DOOR CREAKS OPEN

No way.

Odette?

I thought she wasn't coming.

I wouldn't miss my daughter's wedding.

Not for the world.

No, but seriously, raising my beautiful daughter...

..has been the honour of my life.

And I'm so proud to see her marrying...

..the love of HER life.

So if you'll join me in toasting Monique.

ALL: Monique.

Monique.

All right, lovelies...

And, gents, it's time for the first dance.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

I can't believe you had the nerve to turn up, Odette.

No trouble, do you hear me?

BAND PLAYS

♪ Who's that girl?

♪ She's taking on the whole wide world... ♪

Thank you.

Working up a thirst on that dance floor.

Hey, you OK?

Mascara in 40 degree heat...

Bad combo.

I just need a refresh.

Saint Marie's number-one hot-shot detective.

Are you running the station yet?

No, I'm just focusing on supporting my DI.

Good to see you haven't changed, Mimi.

Right, time for cake.

Thank you. Hey!

All right, people.

I hope you brought your appetites.

There's no knife.

Odette...

Odette...

Mr... Mr Hays.

Odette did this to me.

She said meet her at Orchid Point...

And then she stabbed me, she stabbed me.

Mr Hays?

No!

Mr Hays?

No!

I didn't do it.

We need to get her out of here. You're coming with me.

I swear, Monique!

This is murder, Sammy.

We need a DI over here.

I'll make the call.

You know, the sarge speaks about Saint Barnabas so much.

I've been meaning to come and visit for ages.

It's a bit of a shame it took somebody being murdered

to make it happen, though. Marlon...

Sorry, sorry.

You reckon there's more to eat than just lobster, right?

Sergeant Sammy Debraun, this is DI Neville Parker,

Trainee Officer Curtis and Officer Pryce.

Thank you all again for coming.

Well, I'm sorry it's not under better circumstances,

but it's good to meet you, Sergeant Debraun.

Naomi always talked very fondly about the island.

That's good to hear.

Pleased to meet you, too, Inspector.

Hope you've been looking after this one for us.

More like she looks after me.

Used to be a real dream team, the two of us.

Now it's only me keeping everyone in line.

We've gathered the wedding guests by the church,

you can take witness statements.

Sir, Sammy and I thought we'd talk you through the crime scene.

Great.

Rex Hays, 56.

Father of the bride.

He runs a successful lobster business.

Brought a lot of money to the island.

He was...

..beloved around here.

Where did this happen?

Orchid Point, he told me.

It's just over there, through the trees.

Got a guest who said they saw Rex heading there around 5:55.

The bride and groom were about to cut the cake when he reappeared.

There's no knife. Odette did this.

What time was that?

6:00 exactly.

So there was a five-minute window between the victim leaving

the wedding reception and his return?

What do we know about the alleged killer, Odette Hays?

The victim's estranged wife...

Estranged?

..that left Saint Barnabas 15 years ago.

She had addiction problems, alcohol, drugs.

It spiralled badly.

Was better for all concerned when she upped and left.

No-one had heard from her since.

I believe she's been living on Saint Marie the last few years.

So it's Odette's Hays's first time back on the island in 15 years...

..and within hours of her return, she commits murder?

Sergeant Debraun, you can release the body now.

Naomi, do you want to show me the secondary crime scene?

Blood spots on the grass there...

..there...

..and over there.

Also, sir, we found this lying right there.

It has $5,000 in cash inside.

We assume it belongs to the victim, but we'll dust for prints to check.

What was he doing here with that kind of money on him?

And when you spoke to the victim, when he said it was

Odette Hays who stabbed him...

..any inkling as to why she did it?

I mean, I was a child when Odette left Saint Barnabas.

Based on what I was told, based on what I heard, she was...

..damaged, trouble.

That's what Sammy always said.

And, er...

How are you?

Me?

Well, these are your friends, people you grew up with.

It must be tough.

It is, but, erm...

..it's our duty to be strong, right?

As police officers?

So... That's what I'm doing.

Being strong for this island.

$10 says we're case closed and back on Saint Marie by this evening.

Why, what you got?

Three separate witnesses saw Odette arguing with Rex

just 30 minutes before he was killed.

We need to talk.

You want to talk, you...?!

Also another guest witnessed her putting the knife

that killed Rex into her handbag.

Add to that, the victim identified Odette Hays as his killer.

So that ten bucks - anyone fancy it?

SHE TUTS

I can see what you're all thinking, right now, but...

..you got this wrong.

So you're saying you didn't stab Rex Hays?

I had no reason to.

I didn't come here bearing any grudge with him.

Except you were heard arguing with him only 30 minutes

before his body was found.

You were pretty worked up, from what we heard.

You want to talk, you...?!

We exchanged a few words, I admit.

What about?

Rex assumed I was drinking.

Said I was going to spoil Monique's big day.

I told him that I was sober now, been dealing with it in therapy.

He refused to believe me.

What about the fact you were witnessed taking the knife

used to kill Rex and putting it in your bag?

How do you explain that?

I...

I can't.

So you don't deny it, then?

Add to that the fact that the victim himself identified you

as his killer.

Odette did this to me.

I don't know why he said that.

I'm sorry to interrupt, but I've got Barbara Carter on the phone.

She wants to speak with you, Sergeant Debraun.

She says it's urgent.

Yes, Barbara, everything all right?

Inspector, meet Barbara Carter, the victim's partner.

And I'm the sister of the accused.

Wait, so you were his...?

And you're her...?

Oh.

So what is it you wanted to show us, Barbara?

It was a few minutes before six.

They carried the cake out, just started serving the champagne,

and I wanted to get it all on camera.

Now, this, I am not going to miss.

But there's something else I caught when I was recording.

Time code says 5:57.

Yeah, that's about the same time Rex left the wedding

to go to Orchid Point.

It's Odette!

And she's there the whole time.

Monique's right, she never once leaves that spot.

But you see what this means, right?

Odette is on the footage the whole time.

She can't have stabbed my father.

Just to be clear, Mrs Hays, we've taken your passport

and you're supposed to remain on the island

for the duration of the investigation.

Understand?

I used to put plasters on your scraped knees.

You and Monique used to tear around our back yard

like a couple of wild cats.

I know I lost my way for a long time.

But I was never the monster they said I was.

You'll see, I reckon this island has a few secrets it's ready to share.

It really is very kind of you to put us up, Sammy.

Glad of the company.

And any excuse to light his barbecue, right?

CHUCKLING

I'm normally a modest man, Inspector, but when it comes

to flame-grilled lobster, mine's the best on the island.

Lobster?

My favourite...

Er...

That's, erm...

..potent, sir.

I take it with me everywhere I go.

I can find it hard to get to sleep in a new place.

Oof, what is that smell?

Oh, sorry, sir.

This is a bit awkward.

I know you've already unpacked and everything,

but this is my room.

No, Sammy said the last one down the hall.

Me too, but... BOTH: The one on the left.

No, no, I really can't.

Sir, I need my own space to revise...

My Sergeant's exam is next month, and it's really important

I revise, sir.

Plus, no offence, but you seem like a kicker.

We'll just have to top-and-tail.

You don't mind if I play some whale sounds on my phone

before bed, do you?

Oh, this is a good one.

What are the three core benefits of community policing?

It's, er... Oh, getting to know the community so they don't hate us.

It's not entirely wrong.

It's fostering good interaction, developing community relationships,

and acting as a deterrent.

I hate that you know all of this off by heart.

It's cool, I've got ages.

A whole month. How hard can it be?

You know, when Naomi first pitched up at my station...

..she was ten.

Said she wanted to be a police officer.

I gave her an old police textbook.

Thought that would be the end of it.

And she came back every day for a year with these.

You did not keep them?!

The Case Of The Missing Trike.

By Superintendent Thomas, age ten and three quarters.

Ten years old, and following the police textbook like the Bible.

And that never changed.

She's an examiner's dream.

Oh, I'll do the dishes and then run you home, all right, Mimi?

I'll give you a hand with that, actually.

Marlon, I thought you said your exam was next month.

Yeah, the 28th.

That's not what it says on the Police Board website.

According to that, it's Monday of next week.

What?!

I don't believe it.

Why don't I give Sergeant Debraun a hand with the washing up,

and you do some revision? Yeah.

Naomi, I've been thinking about this case.

I think I should follow your lead.

But you're the senior officer, sir.

Yeah, but this is a small community, you know these people.

It's your instincts we should be following, not mine.

Thank you, sir.

VIDEOCALL RINGS

HE SNIFFS

Ugh!

HE GROANS

Morning, Commissioner.

Morning, Inspector.

I appear to have woken you.

Well, it IS 6.30 in the morning, sir.

I'm a busy man, Inspector.

Especially now I'm looking after the police station

in your absence.

Fair point.

How are...

..how are you and your team getting on over at Saint Barnabas?

Yeah, we're doing OK.

Mmm.

Morning, Commissioner, you good?

Right, I'm going to jump in the shower.

I can explain that, sir.

I got your message.

You said you required some assistance in solving the case.

SHOWER RUNS Oh, yeah.

We were wondering if you could maybe track down a lead for us?

A therapist on Saint Marie.

Send over the details of the therapist.

I'll get back to you.

OK, thanks, Commissioner.

OK, let's start with those closest to the victim.

Mr Hays's partner, Barbara Carter...

..his daughter Monique Hays...

..and his son-in-law, Ty Edgars.

Ah, Mimi, you seriously think one of them did it?

After Odette left the island, her sister, Barbara, stepped in

to help Rex raise Monique.

She basically became a mother and wife overnight.

The pair of them fell in love with each other.

So then there's Rex's only daughter, Monique.

She's 26 years old, does part-time work at the salon.

But Monique was never really interested in having a career.

She always wanted to start a family.

Which brings us to Ty Edgars, Rex's son-in-law.

Ty has pretty much taken up the reins at the Lobster King.

According to Monique, Mr Hays was over the moon to know

that there is someone to carry on the family business.

It's been a real journey for Ty.

In what way?

He floated around the surrounding islands growing up, got

in with a bad crowd for a while over on Guadeloupe,

came back to Saint Barnabas on a rehabilitation scheme,

totally turned his life around.

So, a close and loving family with no real skeletons in the closet?

Apart from this one.

PHONE RINGS

Hey, Marlon, got something?

You found that in Rex's safe?

Yep.

Any bullets with it?

No.

I find it hard to believe that Mr Hays

was in possession of a gun.

That's just not who he was.

Also, there are some thin scratches to the paint

on the frame of the safe.

Recent, as if someone tried to force it open, maybe.

OK, thank you.

Is it registered?

Yes, but it was stolen a month ago.

Ballistics show that it was used by a gang in a shooting

in Guadeloupe last week.

Suspects were arrested, but the firearm was never found.

Well, Rex has definitely had no connections

to any Guadeloupe gangs.

No, but we know someone who does.

I...

I owed someone.

One last favour.

They called a few days ago.

Said they needed me to hide a gun until things cooled down.

We had closed the office the weekend of the wedding and Rex

hardly ever checks in anyway these days, so...

So if you put the gun in the safe, why not just unlock it

when you took it back last night? Why use a crowbar?

Because Rex took my keys from me.

When?

The evening of the wedding, at the reception.

Rex said he'd been to the offices and he needed

to get something from the safe.

Maybe that's when he got that $5,000 we found?

And he found the gun there?

He was furious.

Said that I put his daughter's life in danger

and it was all a fantasy that I could ever really change.

Ty, if Rex told the police you were harbouring a gun,

you'd go to jail. So what are you suggesting?

That I killed Rex to keep him quiet?

Is that really what you think of me, Naomi?

That I'm capable of that?

You know, Monique always worried you'd change...

..leaving Saint Barnabas...

..that you'd come back a different person.

I'm just trying to solve your father-in-law's murder, Ty.

And you not only lied to the police, you lied to your wife...

My best friend as well.

Hey...

He didn't get to you back in there, did he?

Of course not.

When you police a small island where everyone knows everyone,

you get used to getting up people's noses.

Wait.

Listen...

There's something you should know.

I was not the only one who had an issue with Rex.

What do you mean?

The night before the wedding, I stayed over

at Rex and Barbara's.

Next morning, I come downstairs and find Barbara in tears.

She was looking for Monique's birth certificate for the registrar,

when she come across some papers in Rex's study.

Turned out Rex bought a house out on the bay...

..but only in his name.

He was leaving her.

The morning of the wedding, he said that he never really loved me.

It was just convenient, he said, having me around,

looking after him and Monique.

That's harsh, after being together for so long.

It's brutal, is what it is.

You know, for those first few years me and Rex got together,

I always felt this guilt...

..that I was betraying Odette.

She was still my sister.

I still loved her...

..despite what she did.

What did she do?

She drank too much one night, fell asleep on the sofa

and left a cigarette unattended.

The whole house caught fire.

Poor Monique was trapped upstairs.

She was only ten.

Rang Sammy for help, but by the time he got there,

she was badly burned.

Got them both out just in time.

So that's why Odette went away, and why everyone

was relieved to see her go?

And that's when you stepped in to pick up the pieces.

It was her auntie, I felt a duty.

Then all these years later, Rex turns around

and throws it back in your face.

That's maybe how it looks, but...

None of it mattered to me...

The house, the money.

Rex could keep it all as far as I was concerned.

That sweet girl is all I care about.

Monique was a blessing, and he can never take that away.

I appreciate that, Marietta, but this is a process.

You have to trust us.

We'll talk, then.

Everything all right, Sammy?

Phone's not stopped.

People are asking why, Mimi, you are running around accusing

innocent bystanders of committing murder.

Because there's significant evidence Odette didn't kill Rex Hays.

A community meeting has been organised.

I'll have to show my face.

We will show everybody this is just due process.

Well, do you want me to come with you?

Maybe hearing from me might help as well.

You're the last person they want to see right now.

Let's just get back at it, sir.

Oh, you're just in time, we've got Commissioner Patterson on the line.

Sir. Good afternoon, Inspector.

Good to see you dressed a touch more respectably.

I'm sorry, sir?

You're not half-naked.

Oh, well, as I said, sir, it was very...

I managed to meet... OK. ..with Odette Hays's therapist,

and she confirmed that she had been treating Miss Hays

for just over three years for addiction issues.

I've forwarded the therapist's notes.

She said recently they'd made some real progress in understanding

Odette's reasons for leaving Saint Barnabas 15 years ago.

OK, sir, we'll work on these overnight.

Thank you, Commissioner.

Thank...

Right, well, it's about time to call it a day, anyway.

I'll take these back to Sammy's and work on them there.

Sir, I'm going to stay back here a bit.

Go through what we've already got.

OK.

Anything else, sir?

Huh? Oh, no.

Er, yes, alibis, good.

Check them.

♪ Ah, ha-ha, I've got to run... ♪

Evening, Selwyn.

I'd heard you were playing caretaker.

It's not ideal, but at the same time, I do find the sun shines

a little brighter on Saint Marie

when Inspector Fusspot is away.

Ah, Selwyn!

So, is it mayoral or police business you're here on?

Neither, actually.

I, erm...

I had a booking come in...

..in the name of Andrina Harper.

So you already know she's coming in four weeks' time.

She wrote me another letter. It arrived a few days ago.

She feels, whether I decide to meet with her or not,

she wants to come to the island.

She has roots here...

..and she wants to learn more about them.

Will you see her?

She's travelling over 5,000 miles to come here -

I can hardly say no, can I?

Erm, excuse me.

Inspector.

Oh, thank you.

You not going to toast the skyline with me?

I can see why the tourists love it, it's...

..so romantic.

A bit too much glare for my taste...

Couldn't read my notes.

It's good to see Marlon finally knuckling down, huh?

He's going to have to work hard if he wants to be

match-fit for Monday.

Actually...

Can I let you in on a little secret?

His exam's not for another month.

You said... I lied.

That was the exam date for my evening...

..salsa class.

You see, and I don't know whether you agree with me here, Inspector,

but sometimes I feel with Marlon, what he needs most

is a very loving but hard kick up the backside.

I know exactly what you mean.

So, when are you going to tell him?

When we get back to Saint Marie.

I wouldn't want to interrupt his flow.

Not now that he's got one.

WHISPERS: Marlon.

Can I ask you a question?

Sure thing, but why are you whispering?

I don't know.

I don't know.

So, what's the problem?

Well...

I got a text off Sophie this afternoon, and I, erm...

..I'm just not really sure what to make of it.

"I miss you."

Whoa. Yeah.

She misses you, sir. Yeah.

I mean, I wasn't really expecting that.

I just don't know if I should say anything back?

Well, do you miss her?

Kind of.

Well, there you go.

Say you miss her, too.

No.

Yeah, you don't think that's a bit forward?

OK, fair enough.

I... miss... you.

And, sent.

There you go, good one.

Right, I'll see you in the morning.

All right, night, Marlon.

Night, sir.

Oh, and Marlon?

Mm-hm.

Thanks.

WHALES MOAN

Oh, you look how I feel.

How many hours of sleep did you get?

And did you make any progress?

Thank you.

And all you've done is tire yourself out, Mimi.

I dug up the case file on the Hays' house fire.

Yes. It's pretty sparse, Sammy.

Only two pages?

Well, it's open and shut.

Nothing more to put in the report.

So, did the alibis check out?

I've got two witnesses that confirm Ty Edgars was out

the back of the wedding venue,

having a crafty cigarette at the time Rex was murdered.

And we know Barbara Carter couldn't have done it

because she was at the reception, recording it on her phone.

An old guy called Mr Sims confirmed she was there.

Now, THIS I am not going to miss!

She even gave the old man a hand filming it on his phone too.

So both Ty and Barbara have alibis. None of them can be our killer.

I've just finished going through the therapist's notes on Odette.

Seems she recently recovered a memory from the night

of the house fire.

It was a beautiful home.

We spoke to your therapist.

There's something you remembered about the night of the fire?

We're listening, Odette.

It was just a flash.

But I saw it,

clear as day.

I remembered.

The night it happened, I was drunk, and Monique,

she was so angry with me, poor thing.

She poured my booze down the sink, tore my cigarettes up,

threw them in the trash.

After that, I passed out.

Next thing I know, I come round and the fire started.

So you think you didn't accidentally start the fire?

How could I have started the fire with a burning cigarette,

when I didn't have any to smoke?

Someone else planted it while I was asleep.

Who?

Rex! I know it was.

He wanted rid of me for so long.

I was an embarrassment for him.

He'd threatened me before,

said he'd do whatever it takes to keep me away from Monique.

So that's why you came back, for revenge?

Yes.

But I needed to know if I was right first. So I confronted him.

I know what you did. The fire - you planted the cigarette.

He denied it, of course, but I could always tell when he was lying.

He has this tell.

Hmm! Pulls his ear, all nervous.

No, no, no, I did no such thing.

And what happened next?

Offered me $5,000 to leave the family alone.

That's why he took the cash from the safe.

As if money could ever make a difference!

He'd stolen 15 years of my life.

Sold my daughter lies.

Destroyed our family.

So what did you do?

I told him to meet me at Orchid Point with the money.

Then I went and took the knife.

When the time came, I saw Rex head off.

And I was all ready to go.

But I looked in the bag...

..and it had gone. The knife had gone!

Somebody had taken it. I don't know who, but somebody.

They knew what I was up to.

How could they have known?

Because there was something else missing from my bag.

A letter...

..to Monique.

Explaining the truth about the fire,

who started it.

So you think whoever knifed Rex took the letter as well?

Next thing, Rex appears, and he's already been stabbed.

If Odette's telling the truth, then someone must have found out

what she was up to and piggybacked onto her plan.

But if that IS what happened,

why was Rex convinced it was Odette that did it?

Naomi?

Er, sorry, sir. Um... I'll meet you back at the station.

I need to check something.

I think you should read this, sir.

I wrote it the night of the fire at Rex

and Odette Hays's house 15 years ago.

And, Sergeant Debraun, YOU might want to listen.

"Case 42. Date - 23rd of February. Crime - speeding.

"Details - Mr Hays came to pick up Monique after school.

"I told him Monique had a sore tummy and had already gone home.

"His face went funny.

"He said a bad word, ran to his car and drove away too fast."

So, when Rex went to pick up Monique from your house,

he was distraught to discover that Monique was already back home?

Because? Because Rex had already started the fire.

He must have thought Odette was home alone.

Didn't realise Monique was there too.

A woman blamed herself for 15 years for something she didn't do.

Did you know?

No, I...

I didn't know. Of course not.

Then, tell me you investigated it properly.

That's why there are only a couple of pages in this case file,

isn't it? Look, Mimi...

Don't call me that.

My instincts said that Odette was responsible.

Your instincts?!

Rex was my friend! We grew up together!

His whole life had just fallen apart.

Monique was... was... was in intensive care.

The whole community was in shock!

There was pressure on me to... to... to get the report done - quickly.

And... that's what I did.

It's hard when your heroes mess up, isn't it?

Do you know why I came to Saint Marie?

To experience a wider range of crimes, wasn't it?

Challenge yourself.

That's a part of it - a big part.

But also I came to get away from Sammy.

He's helped me so much in my life, Inspector.

I wouldn't be here doing this without him.

But at the same time, he always undermines me,

makes me feel like I'm not up to the job, not in the way he is.

Yeah, I have seen a bit of that.

He used to say to me, "I've got a brain for procedure,

"but policing is about trusting your heart, what's in here."

And I don't have that.

You know that's complete nonsense, right?

I wouldn't have asked you to take the lead on this case

if I didn't 100% know you were up to it.

I came to Saint Marie to get Sammy out of my head,

but he stayed there, needling away.

I won't live like that. Not any more.

All she ever wanted was to have her mother around.

You took away that chance.

You think I don't know that?

I don't need a lecture from you.

26 years.

I was the only officer on this island. I never wanted to stay.

I wanted to go out into the world and make a real difference...

..but the people here, they hold on to you so tightly,

they never want to let you go.

So I stayed.

I thought I'd made my peace with it.

And then you showed up.

Bright-eyed, full of potential

and, what's more, you were determined to leave the island.

You were going to make it.

I... I'm so, so sorry, Naomi.

You... You deserve better than me.

There was something else missing from my bag.

A letter. To Monique.

Thought I'd find you here.

Do you remember that time we decided to race

the entire length of the island?

It was insane.

When we got back here, our feet were blistered and bleeding.

But you didn't cry.

You never cry.

Not when Richard Samuels pulled your hair in the sixth grade,

not with all with your surgeries, not even on Mother's Day.

Never.

So...

..imagine my surprise when I saw you upset at the wedding.

Hey, you OK?

I told you. It was the heat. My make-up.

No.

I don't think it was.

That evening, you found out that Rex had framed Odette for the fire.

I... I don't know what you're talking about.

It was you that took that letter from Odette's bag, wasn't it?

At the wedding,

I kept trying to get close to her, to talk to her, just us.

When I finally got a chance to go over, she wasn't there,

but I saw her bag.

I should have just left it, but I wanted to know what she had to say.

It was like a bomb had gone off...

..finding out that Mum thought Dad had nearly killed me in that fire.

I was so confused by it.

Did you believe what Odette had written?

In the letter, she sounded so hurt.

Like she'd suddenly made sense of everything.

When you had been upset at the wedding, where had you just been?

I needed some space. I walked to the woods to calm down.

All I could think about was Dad - what he'd done to me, to all of us.

I hated him.

I hate to have to ask you this, Mon, but...

..did you stab your father?

Monique says she was in the woods at the back of the venue

at the time of the murder, catching her breath.

She didn't kill her father.

Anyone able to confirm that?

There was a couple at the wedding who had snuck off for a, um...

..for a...

A canoodle? A canoodle.

They say there's no way she could have got to the beach

and back in time.

She's not our killer.

So all of our suspects have alibis.

This would have been easier if Rex had never seen who killed him.

Wait, what did you just say?

Er, I said it would have been easier if Rex had never seen...

Who killed him. Exactly.

Because if the victim hadn't seen it, and if he didn't know it,

then, how could he say that he knew what it was that he didn't know?

The victim himself identified you as his killer.

Odette did this to me!

She was still my sister. I still loved her.

She even gave the old man a hand filming it on his phone too.

So that's why you came back, for revenge?

Of course!

It's all there! If only we'd have known what we were looking for.

Naomi, there's someone we need to talk to.

Marlon, Darlene, can you gather the suspects?

We're on it, sir.

Ten bucks says we're off the island by nightfall.

Not on your Nelly, Officer Pryce.

What happened? Did he... Did he solve it?

That's just how we roll on Saint Marie.

When people ask me where I'm from,

I say the name Saint Barnabas with pride.

We're a tight community.

We're good people.

We look out for each other.

And yet, four days ago, a man who seemingly everyone loved

was murdered.

Died in my arms on that very spot.

"Come for the lobster. Stay for the sunset."

That's what the sign says.

And I have to admit, the sunsets you get here are

particularly dazzling.

Now, we know that Rex Hays was murdered somewhere

between five minutes to six and six o'clock.

Or to put it another way - sunset.

And that explains why he was convinced that it was Odette Hays

who did it.

After all, it was Odette he'd arranged to meet with

at Orchid Point at six, to pay her $5,000 to leave the island.

And so, when he saw the silhouette of a woman approaching,

that's who he assumed it was. With the setting sun shining behind,

wearing a similar dress and a hairstyle,

it would be very easy to confuse one sister for the other.

Because in fact, Barbara,

it was you.

And it was you that killed him.

We already know that you were reeling

from discovering earlier that day

that Rex was planning to abandon you after 15 years together.

We also know that Odette had confronted Rex.

You overheard them arguing,

and Odette accusing Rex of starting the fire 15 years ago.

I know what you did.

The fire. You planted the cigarette.

No, I did no such thing.

When you heard Rex deny it,

you, like Odette, knew him well enough to know that he was lying.

You'd already been hurt by his words earlier that day.

But now, when you discovered that he'd also betrayed your sister,

causing a 15-year-long rift between you,

a sister that you still loved,

well, I think that was just too much to bear. Can't have been her.

She was recording on her phone when it happened.

Indeed. We know that the footage Barbara recorded proves

that she was nowhere near Orchid Point at the time of the murder.

Except it doesn't.

Because it wasn't actually Barbara who filmed it on her phone.

It was somebody else, albeit unwittingly.

This identical phone belongs to an elderly guest. Mr Sims.

Barbara Carter couldn't have done it

because she was at the reception, recording it on her phone.

An old guy called Mr Sims confirmed she was there.

Not the most technologically minded man.

Which is why Barbara helped him when he wanted to film

the cake-cutting ceremony himself.

But this phone, Mr Sims's phone,

actually contains no footage at all,

despite him believing he'd made a recording.

We think the reason for that is because when you helped him set up

his phone to record, you used that opportunity to switch phones.

And so he was actually videoing on YOUR phone.

With this done, all you had to do was head to Orchid Point.

And once you stabbed Rex, you returned to the wedding reception

and switched your phone back once Mr Sims was finished filming.

I did it for you.

I am so sorry for choosing him over you.

Barbara Carter, I'm arresting you for the murder of Rex Hays.

Wait.

Well, I did enjoy the sunset.

The lobster I could take or leave, though.

Thank you, Sammy. Thank YOU, Inspector.

So, um...

I formally apologised to Odette

and Monique. It's on record.

I've been thinking lately.

Maybe it's time for me to retire.

So...

..maybe I will finally make that trip to explore

the big, bad world.

I probably don't have the right to say this any more,

but I'm proud of you.

The way you handled this case.

I really wish the best for you, Mimi.

DS Thomas.

They're lucky to have you on Saint Marie.

This is where I started, though.

With you.

Bye, Sammy.

Oh...

Commissioner! We weren't expecting to see you.

I heard you all did us proud over on Saint Barnabas,

solving what sounds like a tough case.

So I thought I'd come and buy you all a welcome-home drink.

Oh, Commissioner, you are a true gentleman.

Who's the inspector on the phone to?

Been talking ages.

Oh, Sophie.

Really?!

Is it back on?

Well...

She misses him and he misses her.

So the answer should be quite simple.

But if there's one guy we know

that will unnecessarily complicate things,

it's to do with the lavender sleep spray in his rucksack.

So...

How long has Andrina booked to stay here?

A week. C'est tout.

Don't make it difficult for her.

She will be nervous.

I hope you know me better than that.

All we can do, she and I, is take it one day at a time.

So that's what we'll do.

Hmm.

Yeah, OK. OK. Bye.

Well, by the look on your face, sir,

I'm guessing you managed to not mess up that phone call.

Quite the opposite, Marlon.

So what's the deal, then?

She's flying out in a few days to see me.

Her boss says she can work remotely for a month, just as a trial,

and then I guess we'll see how we get on together.

Oh, I am so pleased for you, Inspector. Thanks, Darlene.

That's really good news, sir. Hey, you're welcome.

Yes.

Merci.

You know, I think it's really important for a man to have a bit

of passion in his life.

I will toast to that! Which man are we talking about?

The inspector.

Although, in my case, it's not a very French sort of passion.

It's more a fish and chips in the pouring rain kind of thing.

I would expect nothing less, Neville!

Cheers. Cheers. Cheers. Cheers.

Just maybe avoid the jet skis this time! Yes, I second that!

Please, everybody, gather round.

Then the killer has to be someone

who was at Miracles' fundraiser yesterday.

Help! It's like a giant game of "Guess Who?"

It's OK to be nervous, Selwyn.

She'll be nervous, too.

So what would you like to know?

I have my sergeant's exam.

You may start now.

You have a daughter.

Either you want to get to know her or you don't.

It's not as simple as that.

Let me get this straight.

So there is no way that that knife can be the murder weapon.

So in many ways, we are right back where we started.
