All language subtitles for Shakespeare and Hathaway PI S05E09 Daggers of the Mind

There!

Stay back.

Stay back and sleep.

Oh, please.

Please, I beg you, leave me.

Leave me.

Leave me alone.

Can you turn it down? I can't hear
myself think.

This is research for our next client.

Her father is a very famous film
director.

Oh. Raynard Lennox.

Well, surely even you've heard of the
death veil.

Ah, is it a rom -com?

That's a horror.

Well, then, no.

Raynard Lennox, famous film director,
and nobody told me.

Well, don't get too excited. He's
retired.

A bit like you. I think you'll find I'm
resting.

Oh, is that what you call it?

Excuse me. Sorry, the door was open. Oh,
no,

Regan Carno. I'm here about the
receptionist job.

Oh, lovely.

Oh, great, well, come in. I mean, you
have.

Finally.

Oh, no, no, no, I'm sorry.

What he means is we've had two no -shows
already, so it's really lovely to meet

you. I'm Luella Shakespeare.

And I'm Frank Hathaway.

I'm his senior partner.

It's debatable.

And this is Sebastian, our investigative
assistant.

Executive, investigative assistant.

Hi. Oh, sorry I'm so late. I missed
three buses.

Well, drove straight past me.

They were full of people in horror
costumes.

Some big convention in town, apparently.

Well, don't worry. You're here now,
aren't you?

Do you want to have a seat, have a tea
or a coffee? Could I get a coffee,

please? Milk with no sugar.

Thank you.

I hope it's not really cringe, but I
bought these.

I do a bit of baking in my spare time.

How lovely!

Bait the hook well, this fish will bite.

Do you want to go and put them on a
plate and maybe we'll eat them?

The interview. Shall we do the
interview? Yes.

Great.

Oh, me.

So, Miss Kerner, what first attracted
you to working at a detective agency?

I found what you do so fascinating.

It must be so exciting, you know,
catching criminals and finding missing

You must be so clever.

I have my moments. I have more.

The thing is, your role would actually
be more admin -based.

Oh, I know that. I've got lots of office
experience and I'm very computer

literate. That's great.

That is great.

Do you bake much?

Is that a requirement?

Absolutely.

Yeah, I mean, it actually might be, you
know, if we were going undercover as

chefs. Yes, or like in a bakery.

Or Bellagio.

Imogen, I'd like to see you both.

Quick,

quick.

Frank?

Thank you.

I know it sounds extraordinary, but I'm
convinced someone's literally trying to

scare him to death.

And do all these visions have, like,
references to his films?

And there were no other witnesses apart
from Reynard?

Yes. But it's not dementia.

He's sharp as a pin.

And when did he have his first, um,
encounter?

About three weeks ago.

Could it be someone with a grudge?

Well, there'd be no shortage of
candidates.

Father made a lot of enemies back in the
day. He had a reputation for bullying

actors, crew.

Portia Frost.

Oh, she's on at the RSC now.

It's his ex -wife.

She wrote a memoir.

It wasn't very nice.

You read a book?

No, it was in the tabloids.

She made her name in Raynard's
Nunsploitation movies back in the 80s. I

She was traumatised by working with him,
especially on that last film they did

together. Oh, The Death Veil. Apparently
the horror scenes were highly

disturbing to film.

You know what actors are like. She was
probably just being dramatic.

Well, I'm sure he was no angel, but
other directors have been accused of far

worse. Sorry, is Portia your stepmum?
Never even met her.

She was Father's second wife, and my
mother was number three.

So why do you think this has all started
now, after all these years?

I wonder if it's because of the
convention.

Father's coming out of retirement for a
retrospective of his work, starting

today. Yeah, I know.

Sold out.

Well, anyway, listen, we can put some
spy cameras up at your house.

Yeah, and where do you think your dad
will be right now? Because we need to

speak to him. He's at the convention.

Would you like to meet him there or back
at the house? Oh, at the convention,

definitely. Yeah, the convention,
because it's for research purposes,

OK, well, I'll see you there. OK.

Thank you. Oh, thank you.

Take care. Thank you.

Thanks. See you there.

For research purposes.

What?

You are such a geek.

I am not a geek.

Reynard Lennox's movies are cult
classics.

Oh, hey, Regan. Sorry.

We're just about to dash out, but, um...
We'd like to offer you a week's trial.

Yes. Under my expert tutelage.

How does that sound? That'd be amazing,
thank you. Great.

Lesson one, telephonic diction.

Have you ever been to a horror
convention?

No, why would I? Oh, you're going to
love it.

What was that?

I always said that horror is in the
blood.

Even my ancestral home was the site of
one of the bloodiest battles in the

English Civil War.

Coincidence?

Well, then you be the judge of that.

Gorwood, where the death veil was
filmed, of course.

As it might be again soon.

Oh, did I say that right?

I couldn't possibly comment, although if
you're all still here on the final day,

you may very well hear a very
interesting piece of news.

As I was saying, it's in the blood.

Even neurobiologists believe that
psychopathy can be hereditary.

Passed down from father to son.

That's why I had a daughter.

I strangled the boys.

I'm not joking.

It's a bit dark, isn't it?

Yes, well, unfortunately, we have run
over our allotted time.

For now.

But Reynard will return tomorrow for the
screening.

And prior to that, we have an exciting
monster -making demo from James Colvey.

Would you care to give us a preview?

Thank you, my dear.

First, I'd like to say what a massive
honour it is to be on the same stage as

Reynard Lennock.

And what can you tell us about the demo?

Well, we will be looking at the
evolution of effects all the way from

the 80s to what we can achieve now in
just a fraction of the time.

And up tomorrow at 12pm.

Perhaps we can even entice Reynard to
join.

In the meantime, our thanks to the
master.

My pleasure.

Thank you.

Long time?

Yes, not long enough.

Still using my name to peddle your other
lesser -known artists, I see.

This whole event is about you. My God,
you haven't changed at all, have you?

And I won't be appearing on any panels
with him.

Father?

What's going on?

These are the people we discussed.

Mr Hathaway and Miss Shakespeare.

I need a drink.

Shall we go?

It's a great pleasure to meet you. I'm a
massive fan. I love all your films.

Imogen's been telling us about these
visitations.

Any idea who's behind them?

If they're even real... You didn't
imagine them.

He was genuinely terrified.

I could put together a list of potential
suspects, if that would help.

Yeah, that would be great.

I want to have a word with you.

What was that smug remark about the
death film?

We're in discussions regarding a remake.

Who's directing?

Father.

Why wasn't I informed?

Just like old times.

Same quarrels, bitching.

I thought to make an entrance.

Portia, darling, you look ravishing.

You don't.

You've shriveled. It must be the guilt
withering you.

Mandir, why did you change tomorrow's
schedule?

My Q &A has been moved to accommodate
the screening of his ghastly film.

You didn't say that when you saw the
grossies.

I didn't make a penny from that
godforsaken movie. It's a classic.

Well? Well, he's the bigger ticket.

Whatever. Anyway, I'm at the RSC now, so
I don't need these tawdry

pantomimes anymore.

Porter, wait.

Perhaps we can work something out,
please?

This is what it was like every day on
set. Ignore them. This event is about

not them.

Hear, hear.

Shall we go now, please?

OK, well, so shall we see you at the
house?

We need to get Sebastian to look into
Mandir.

Port is a diva, isn't she? Isn't she
just?

I should be more like that.

No, please don't.

Nice and evenly.

So Frank was in the police before set up
the agency, right? Detective inspector.

He was a lower cop as well. A
hairdresser.

That's random.

They make a surprisingly effective team.
Just watch your lines of symmetry.

Never a dull moment.

It's Lou. Her ears must be burning.

Look into Mandir Chowdhury Convention
Organiser. This brings us very neatly to

our next lesson.

Background checks.

We'll let this get a wrenching bed in.

What are they like as bosses, though?

They are fair.

And they reward hard work, as I'm sure
you will soon discover.

Frank's funny.

Don't be fooled. He's a lot sharper than
he looks.

Cost you a fortune to run the place.

Oh, most of the rooms are empty. I live
here alone.

Oh, so you don't live here. I did offer
to move in temporarily. I don't need

babysitting. I haven't lived at Corwood
since I was a toddler.

Packed off to boarding school and after
that, film school.

She's a decent filmmaker in her own
right.

Must be all that reflected glory.

And she teaches.

Oh, my magnum opus.

Filmed here, save us a pretty penny.

But if you'll excuse me, I have a speech
to prepare for the screening tomorrow.

Mr Hathaway? You should be resting,
Father.

I'd better make tracks myself.

Is there anything else you need?

No, just the list.

Yeah, and thank you.

We both feel so much better having you
around.

Aw, really? Well, we'll be in touch.

Yeah. Won't we, Frank?

Lovely. Thanks.

Ah, there we go.

Come on, give us a hand.

Come on, pull.

Oh, well, I am pulling.

Oh!

I didn't finish hitting those cameras
yet. No, just the last one to go.

OK, well, hurry up, cos this place gives
me the creeps.

Are you scary?

Stop it.

Why,

sir, I'm going out to get you.

Jake! Did you see your phone?

I nearly had a heart attack.

Actually, can we get out of here, then?

I've had enough of this haunted kitchen
for one day.

Oh,

how's it going? Oh, we're working hard,
but...

So the quick learner is very bright.

Regan, want to talk us through that
background check you did on Mandir?

For me? Thanks.

No, no, no. You do the honours.

OK, well, he's like the Invisible Man.

No socials. But according to interviews
with Portia, he was Raynard's

scriptwriter and creative consultant.
But when you go through the actual

credits, it's like he's been erased.

Plenty of reason for bad blood then.

So, I joined a horror fan community, and
they pointed me towards this interview

that Mandir gave with a fanzine called
Gorlor. He absolutely trashes Reynard.

claims that he stole his work, bullied
him, and then recently Reynard asked him

to catalog an archive of props from the
films. They've become a goldmine,

apparently. Highly collectible.

Well, Reynard accused him of not
returning some of them, so Mandir was

Really? Enough to want revenge?

I'll try to find out more tomorrow.

I was thinking I could go to the
convention.

It's a great idea, yeah.

Well done.

We'll make a detective of you yet.

acclaimed the Death Veil.

I'm so sorry.

Is there anything we can do?

Just catch whoever did this.

Well, that's down to the police now.

But you've had a head start.

I want every angle covered. Just do
whatever you can to help them, okay?

Of course.

Was it you that found him?

It was a groundsman who spotted the
break -in first thing.

I drove here.

He was in bed.

Slapped through the heart.

I have to call you back.

What are you two doing here?

This is a crime scene. You need to get
back.

He's our client. We've got every right
to be here.

That's a basilar dagger.

Like the one in the death veil.

I don't believe this.

What are you waiting for?

Preserve the scene.

No press.

No cameras.

Back.

Cameras, the spy cameras. We need to
check the footage.

I'll get Sebastian to start downloading
it.

Shakespeare and Hathaway private
investigators.

Hiya, Regan, it's Frank. Is Seb there?

No, he's just nipped out to get some
fangs.

As you do.

He told me about Raynard.

Poor guy.

Yeah, that's why I'm calling.

I've got a very important job for you.

Yeah, I cannot wait to see Keela say hi
when we solve this crime.

I go ballistic.

Come on, Colonel, what have you got for
us? I'm sorry, I don't know what

happened. One minute it was downloading
and then the computer crashed. I logged

back onto the website, but the footage
wasn't there anymore. It's not in the

cloud. We need that evidence, I'm
undead.

All right, Frank, calm down.

I'm sorry, I did exactly what you said.

Don't worry, honestly, it's fine, we'll
fix it.

Frank? Frank?

Do you want me to go?

I'm not going to get the job now, am I?

Come in.

That was a nice nap, but now I feel a
little piggish.

Send me a quick bite.

That's so good.

Did I miss something?

It's just Frank being Frank.

You look amazing.

Should you be out in the daylight?

Oh, and we're in factor 50.

Oh.

You OK?

Thank you.

It's not your fault, you know.

That laptop was ancient.

If anyone can recover the footage, it's
Spider.

Who is this Spider -Man?

Because if it's Tom Holland, I really
want to meet him.

Yeah, me too.

No, he's not quite.

He's our tech whiz. Lives on the web,
hence the name.

I hope he's as good as you say, because
I really like working here, and now

Frank hates me.

No, he doesn't. He just flies off the
handle sometimes.

Thank you.

Yeah, we had a huge blowout, actually, a
couple of years ago.

Ended the partnership over it. Why? What
happened?

He lost some really expensive tech
equipment and then he blames someone

who really didn't deserve it.

And then it turned out he had it all
along.

Really? Yeah.

Everyone can make mistakes, even Frank,
who thinks he's perfect.

Think I speak for all my fellow
podcasters when I express my thin fear

condolently. Thank you. He was a
controversial figure, though, wasn't he?

mean, I read your Gorlor interview.

Why couldn't he have just given you the
credit you deserved?

Because things were different then.

I never even had a contract.

But he was your friend.

Wasn't he?

So I thought.

I idolized him.

Assumed he'd look after me. He gets all
the acclaim, all the money.

But still, you went back and worked for
him again.

Why? I thought he was trying to rebuild
the relationship.

And then he goes and accuses you of
stealing.

A blow -up on a bruise.

Yes, you had a row yesterday, didn't
you? After the panel.

Yes, he's remaking the film.

Without even consulting me. Well, no
wonder you were furious.

It's like history repeating.

How do you know we'd had an argument?

About any fun podcast?

You're a journalist.

No, actually. I think you can make a
fool out of me. Get out before I be

out.

Ah, the wanderer returned.

Did you find Spider?

Yeah, he's working on it.

What?

Listen, it wasn't your fault, Regan.

I'm sorry.

Any messages?

We've got the email from Imogen. He's
just of Raynard's potential enemies.

What about that fella, the one that
Raynard was rude to on stage?

James... Colby, James Colby. He's not on
there. He's not, no.

Do you want to look into him, see what
you can find out? I think he's going to

be at the convention.

Thanks.

No doubt.

No voucher, no selfie.

Capisce? Capisce. Thank you.

Oh.

Suits you.

I'm a huge fan, especially of your
earlier work.

Raynard's death is such a great blow.

How are you holding up?

Words can't adequately express how I
feel.

I think you're a trooper, if I may say
so, for even showing up today.

Oh, well...

Being with the general public brings me
so much joy.

I can tell.

I wore this as a small personal tribute
to him.

Well, wherever he is now, I'm sure he'll
be really thrilled.

Next. Oh, no, sorry. Oh, wait. I have a
horror podcast, and I was wondering

whether you might be available to me. I
have a rate card.

For interviews, I don't think you could
afford me.

No, of course, it's only that this would
be just for the fans.

Those of us who have stood by you
through all the years, the ups and the

Goodness knows there have been quite a
lot of those. It would only take

a minute.

I'm sorry, darling, not now.

Hello. Yes.

Oh, where are you?

Look out.

Aha. I will swoop down to you.

That was quick. He flew.

You bitten anyone nice lately?

No, but I have caught a cougar.

Or spy cam has.

That's James Colby.

It looked like they were having a
lover's taste.

Really?

Well, Regan found out that he served 18
months for theft.

Where is he now?

Could be anywhere.

Let's split up and find him.

Oh, found him.

Oh.

Hold on.

Mr Colby.

Workshop starts at 12.

Yeah, we know. We're actually private
investigators.

We wondered if we could talk to you
about the murder of Raynard Leonard.

Really?

I don't think I can be of much help.

Is there anything you'd tell us about
your relationship with Raynard?

I didn't have one.

But your girlfriend did, didn't she?

Portia Frost?

What? Is that why he was having a go at
you yesterday, eh?

Did he find out?

Portia's my mother.

I only said it looked like they were
together.

I'm sorry.

So, does that mean Raynard is your dad?

He's my ex -stepfather.

I haven't seen him for decades until
yesterday.

Look, I'm sorry to hear what happened,
but we've never got on.

Yeah, he also treated my mother very
badly.

I read her memoir, and she never
mentions a son.

Thanks for reminding me.

Let's just say having an illegitimate
child wasn't good for her image back

It must have been very difficult for
you.

It's also not common knowledge. I prefer
to keep it that way.

Look, I know Portia can be difficult.

But she is my mother.

And I love her.

Now, if you don't mind.

That was unexpected.

Yeah.

Do you think Mandir knew? Maybe that's
why he got James up on stage to stir

things up.

There's only one way to find out. Plus,
we need to ask him about that dagger and

if he's been stealing props.

I dread carefully. Mandir has definite
anger management issues.

Really? Oh.

Spider. Wait. Spider.

No.

Hello?

Please tell me it's good news.

You've got to be kidding me. Jo, I told
you to back off. No, wait, please. You

need to see this.

Surveillance footage of Galwood House
last night.

That's Portia Frost.

Scramble the fiend. Meet me at the RSC.

She's not there. She's at the Horrible
Haven Convention.

Send me that footage.

Thanks, guys. No, pleasure.

Anytime. No, really, I couldn't do it
without you.

The actress Portia Frost has been
arrested on suspicion of the murder of

former husband, the film director,
Raynard Lennox.

I'm innocent!

And she's made the news. Look at these
earrings.

Love them.

He was arrested. He still looks great.
Hardly her most convincing performance.

Look at Kayla.

Look at Kayla like a blob of wood. Kayla
looks chuffed.

Kayla's famous.

Confirming the actress has now been
formally charged.

Fortunately, I was able to find new
evidence which led to the arrest.

Portia Frost will be remanded in custody
pending a court hearing.

My thoughts and prayers are with the
Lennox family.

That's all for now.

Thank you. Yeah, OK.

Don't thank us for your new evidence,
will you?

Poor Imogen, though. It must be hard,
doesn't it? That all over the media.

I hope she's OK.

They're holding a memorial for Raynard
at the convention this afternoon.

It was on their socials, but Imogen's
saying a few words, apparently.

We should go, shouldn't we?

We could have lunch on the way, hmm?

Frank?

Do you hear that? Memorial.

You all right?

Sorry, I just... Something doesn't feel
right.

You can't argue with your own cameras,
can you?

Come on, let's go and get some lunch. We
can celebrate you closing your first

case.

What's the next case, then?

Well, we've got that workplace comp
claim.

Oh.

Your lunch is going to get cold, Frank.

What are you watching?

Oh, surveillance footage.

Still?

I think my eyes are bigger than my
belly.

Does anyone else want a bit of quiche?

Oh, no, thank you.

Oh, go on, then. Cut me a little slice.

That's it. Look.

The knife's in the wrong hand.

In the film, Porsche has the knife in
the left hand.

Probably because she's left -handed.
Yeah, but in our footage, the killer has

the knife in the right hand.

Wasn't expecting to see you.

We never picked up our cameras.

Of course.

Come in.

Having a bit of a sort out, are we?

Props we lent at the convention.

Anything we don't need for filming can
go back in the attic.

Filming? Yes.

The remake of the death veil that Father
mentioned. It's going ahead.

Oh, I thought you'd already remade that
a couple of nights ago.

When you murdered your dad.

What? Yeah, we met Portia's son, James
Colvey.

You ring any bells?

No. Ah, well, Raynard told us that you
were a filmmaker and a teacher, and then

we found out that you actually taught at
the prison.

HMP call us?

That's where you met James.

He did his time there.

Did he?

Do you have any idea how many prisons
I've taught?

Let's see if I can jog your memory.

It's amazing what you can find online.

Ah, yeah, there we go.

Your star pupil.

He was a make -up and prosthetics
artist.

I found a plastic -ass head and some
special effects equipment here the other

day.

A latex mask for you to wear, so you
could look like Portia.

You used us to capture it on film, like
the great director.

You made a little mistake didn't you?

Portia's left -handed, whereas you, if
I'm not mistaken, are right -handed.

You terrorised your dad just so you
could bring us here and then frame

No more than he deserved.

He never loved me.

He couldn't wait to send me off back to
boarding school, get back to the two

things he loved, making films and
chasing women.

What's going on?

I know.

Why kill him?

Why now?

Because he betrayed me.

He lied to me.

I looked after him.

When his health was declining, when he
was alone, I'd almost started to

He promised Imogen she could direct his
new film.

Then he changed his mind.

He wasn't even going to tell me.

I found an email to the backers. He was
going to announce it on the last day of

the convention.

He promised me that film.

And I deserved it.

It was my birthright.

That's when I knew it had to be done.

And you never loved your mother, did
you?

She tried to erase me from her life.

I mean nothing to her.

And then when Imogen and I met, it was
like the universe was showing us the

Together, we could punish them both.

And get everything.

We've all played our part in this.

Even you.

And now it's such a terrible shame that
it seems that your time has come too.

Run. Run.

Let's finish this together.

Coming. Ready or not.

What choices do we have?

Please. Honest.

We'll take these. Yes. Thank you. Thank
you very much.

You know your fault. Why didn't you tell
me your mother was left -handed?

You never are.

So let me go this straight.

You made a citizen's arrest.

with a baseball bat and a hammer.

They were trying to kill us.

And now you're telling me it was those
two that murdered Lennox?

Yes. I wouldn't like to be in your
facial hair when you have to tell the

you've arrested the wrong person,
especially a big celebrity.

Except that was your fault, because you
two gave me the evidence.

I don't... No.

No, I don't think so. I don't remember
you mentioning that on telly.

No.

Pub? Yeah.

Not you, obviously.

What tripped them up, then?

Ah, watch and learn.

Ah,

scattered them on the floor.

Gross.

Some Cupid kills with arrows, some with
traps.

Yes, darlings.

Tis I.

Fear not, the show will go on.

As far as the Arden police go, I shall
be suing them for wrongful arrest,

defamation of character and emotional
distress.

As for that detective thing... Keeler, D
.S. Keeler. Yeah, Joe, big daft

tash, tall, lives on the Evesham Road.

Keeler?

By the time I finish with him, the only
job he'll get is handing out parking

tickets.

Champagne for the company, and it's on
me.

What? I don't think she means that.

Our evidence nearly put her in prison.
Anyway, we've got more important news,

haven't we? Indeed we do.

We would love you to take the job.

That's if Frank hasn't put you off.

Oh, you didn't, and...

Love to accept. Thank you.

Don't let him boss you around.

Oh, don't worry. I'll be keeping an eye
on him.

Good idea.

No need. She's been a star pupil.

You're round, Mr Executive.

Me?

Uneasy lies the head that wears the
crown.

Drink up, yes, drink up.

I told you, never a dull moment.

Say it again.

I'll have the same.

Cute guy.
