Charlie 1 to 912 Rescue. We've
identified a heat signature.

Over. Charlie 1, what's your location?

Over. Our current position is 51
degrees, 31 minutes north, 0 degrees, 51

minutes west.

Over. That's Bryce Farm.

Right, let's go. Rhys, come on. This
way.

This way.

There's something.

Right, she's definitely in there.
There's a heartbeat.

Rhys.

Hello, lovely girl.

You've had your family worried sick.

Charlie 1, subject located, unharmed.
Over.

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

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

It's up to you. It's your reward.

You coming to this lunch?

I don't think so.

Oh, go on.

Daniella's waitressing.

All right, I'll help him find the dogs,
but I'm not going to sit there binging

him up.

A little petuting.

A little greeting party.

A little greeting party. Aren't you
lovely?

A little bit, darling.

Mommy's brought for you.

There you go.

Don't you look handsome?

Okay, Frank.

Are you serious? I'm so sorry. This is
brand new. I really am sorry. I tripped.

He runs in the family.

What? For being clumsy.

Are you talking about my brother?

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

his accident.

Come on, sweetheart, just calm down. No,
Mum, why are you defending him?

defending him. Okay, Daniela. Go and get
some fresh air.

I'm really sorry about that. Let me help
you. I said I'm fine.

Thank you.

Daniela, go outside.

You okay?

Not really.

No, it's ruined.

Sure, yeah. Thank you.

I'm really, really sorry.

She didn't mean it. It was an accident.

Paddy! Paddy! Look, through the tunnel.

Through!

Paddy! Through the tunnel!

Such authority.

But he's determined to enter.

Dog agility competition.

Well, for a good cause, I suppose.

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

I've had enough of that for one morning.

Friends that's training with Fleur. Oh,
she was in such a bad mood. Quit the

dating apps, apparently.

Sworn off men.

She should get a dog.

Less work and better standards of...
hiding.

No luck on that thing.

What? Yeah.

Uh, no. Has Frank not come back yet?

No.

Should someone check the gents? He's
been... Ty!

Ty,

what's happened?

Sir, Frank Bailey, 47, private
investigator, specializes in missing pet

pet detective?

A very successful one. He was here with
his wife collecting a local hero award.

Hello there.

How's it, um... Stab wound to the neck.

Right. Medium -sized blade, dead less
than an hour.

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

I'm still looking for the weapon.

Got multiple witnesses inside that said
that Frank was at his table until a few

minutes before his body was found.

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

Yeah. I assume he was drag marked into
the kennel.

Difficult to do that without getting
covered in blood.

Difficult but not impossible if you have
something to cover your clothes.

Are these his?

Yeah, it's mainly camera equipment.

Find out what's on there. Who found him?

Tai Yang, over there. He's a delivery
rider. He spotted the body when he came

collect a lunch order.

He's also the victim's nephew.

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

Apparently Frank had an altercation with
her.

Really? They're both given DNA samples
and agreed to be interviewed at

home. Okay.

You said the victim had a wife?

I told him it would end like this.

Those people who steal dogs are
dangerous.

You think this is linked to Frank's PI
work?

His body was found inside the kennel of
the dog we were searching for. Yes, I

think it might be connected.

The family that own this restaurant have
a Czechoslovakian wolf dog, Storm.

She's been missing for four days.

Frank was working the case.

Did he have any leads?

Sorry, I was trying to be funny.

We went hard on social media, press,
posters.

There's so much money in dog theft now.

There's organized gangs involved.

Pet detection is quite niche. How did
Frank get into it?

He used to be in tech.

He launched an e -signature app type
thing. I don't know how it works.

I just know that by the time I'd met
him, it had made a lot of money.

He was supposed to retire after he sold
the company.

Then our dog, Mabel, she was stolen.

Well, no offence, but the police would
have done more for a stolen mobile

So he found her?

Yeah.

Eventually.

She was being used for breeding on a
farm near Cambridge.

It went in the local paper. Some other
people started to ask for help. It just

went from there, really.

Was there anyone outside of his PI work
that Frank had a problem with?

No.

He had a feud with our next -door
neighbour, William Fleming.

He's getting quite old. He's getting
slightly... But he's harmless.

What about your relationship with Frank?
Were you happy?

We were just normal, I think.

I loved him.

Do you know why he left the restaurant?

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

We heard that Frank had an argument with
one of the waitresses.

He was a bit offhand when she spilled
some food on me with nothing.

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

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

If you want to find Frank's killer, you
need to find that dog.

Take it back.

Can I see that again?

They went out the back door into the car
park.

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

It's a lot, you know.

Living next door.

This is our home.

I'm OK.

Did you see or hear anything unusual?

No.

We were short -staffed.

We were both dashing around.

You run this place together?

Feels like it sometimes, but this is a
shiny thing. I'm a mortgage broker.

And you own Storm, the dog Frank was
searching for, is that right?

Can you imagine what our kids are going
through?

We did report it to the police, but...
Was Storm taken from the kennel outside?

No, from the cemetery.

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

There was a noise from the bookies, and
the next thing I knew, he was gone.

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

That's why I agreed to use Frank.

It was awkward, obviously.

Tim wasn't happy.

But under the circumstances... Sorry.

I assumed somebody had already told you.

I'm Frank Fett's wife.

We weren't even close.

It's just the shock of it. I thought he
was still alive, so I typed up him, but

he was still warm.

Had your uncle fallen out with anyone?

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

Like, using her for cheating and stuff,
but I think that was just their thing.

You know, I moved out in the end.

So you used to live with Frank?

Only for a month.

I moved to Midsomer to be with Daniela,
then the neighbour let me write this

caravan. William Fleming?

Yeah.

Did Kim tell you what the dog poo was?

I heard there was a feud.

It was about dog excrement.

William's got this really nice garden.

He's obsessed with it, but he's going
nuts because Frank's dogs keep going in.

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

We're friends with Frank and Reece.

Are you aware of Frank having a
disagreement with anyone else?

So, obviously, I guess people have been
talking about earlier.

I was the waitress at his table, but
things got kind of... Um, Madeleine

Saunders, hi.

I'm Danielle's mum.

I'm sorry to interrupt, but I was there
when she got a bit upset.

It was a misunderstanding.

She was asking me.

I know.

I just want to make sure they know.

That's all. You've never been in any
trouble.

She's a straight -A student.

Plays at medical school.

Because I've never been a killer with
good A -levels.

And you know her.

I'm not going to med school.

Not this year, anyway.

I would like to hear from Daniela, if
possible.

He said something about my brother,
Edison.

Or at least I thought he did.

Four years ago, when he was hiking near
some cliff, he was trying to take a

photo, and he tripped.

He died.

So when I tripped over, I thought that
Frank was making fun of him.

I went outside to calm down. Did you see
Frank out there or hear anything?

I was at the front by the parasol.

I had my music on.

Daniela, this is the time to speak up.
If you were upset, if the argument

carried on outside... My daughter's not
a liar. I am, actually.

Sometimes.

But not about this.

Sharni Hughes divorced Frank 12 years
ago after he had an affair with Kim.

Frank's wife was originally the other
woman.

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

kennel belonging to his ex -wife.

If the killer put the body there to send
a message, then it must have been

planned. They knew Frank was going to
leave the restaurant.

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

Nothing to imply that he was lured, but
he did have his fatnab open. He'd

entered this address.

But here?

Why would he be going to Madeline
Saunders' house when Madeline and

Daniela were both at the restaurant?

Shall we go back in and ask them?

Now let's do some more digging first.

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

to give the once -over to any knives
they do have.

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

Another beer?

Please.

Is this some dog agility thing that
Betty saw run by Madeline Saunders?

Yeah. She's the woman we used for
Paddy's obedience call.

The one who made you cry?

They were tears of pure frustration.

He's a delinquent.

Well, just be extra careful on walks,
OK?

There have been a few dog -napping
cases.

Really? Round here?

Yes.

So you stay close, all right?

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

We could do this for me.

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

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

It's getting late, isn't it?

I told Ty he could stay over.

You know the rules.

It's okay.

Is Daniela having a listen?

Uh, yeah.

Do you want to...

Anytime.

You know that.

Well done, Yara. Well done.

Right, so if you could all pick a piece
of equipment and then... Well, off you

go.

Madeleine? Hi.

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

Yeah, absolutely.

Charlie, come on.

Good boy.

And then perhaps people will listen to
me about the importance of recall

training. Thomas, darling.

It had nothing to do with a recall.

I'm sorry, Ajani.

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

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

Sir.

These were taken on Frank's camera 24
hours before he was killed.

Do we know who she is?

Not yet.

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

Did you check if anyone at the
restaurant had been in trouble before?

Tai Yang was on the database.

Anonymous allegation of drug dealing
earlier this year.

But no charges?

There's no evidence.

There's a lot on this neighbour feud,
though. Frank and Mr Fleming accusing

other of theft, trespass, criminal
damage, dangerous dog offences. In the

they were referred to arbitration.

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

pub brawl that happened years ago.
Nothing to do with Frank.

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

Dr. Perkins.

Flying visit.

I'm going to disappoint you, I'm afraid.
Never.

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

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

Hit the carotid artery, so death would
have been speedy. You're looking for a

fixed blade, 20 centimeters maybe.

Kitchen knife territory.

No missing knives from the restaurant.

I'll call you when I have more.

Oh, just if you need a chat.

I mentioned to Sarah that you seemed a
bit... A bit... What?

She had a good idea, actually. She
thought you should get a pet.

Well, that's extraordinarily
patronising.

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

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

If you were going to get a pet, what
would you get? I'm 100 % a cat person.

Really? I'd have put money on you being
team dog.

I get that. Dogs are loyal,
enthusiastic, good companions, but

that cat people are more intelligent.

Exactly.

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

They did in over there and caused
mayhem. But when I complained, well, it

all our war.

He even trained his dogs to do their
business on my lawn.

It went to arbitration, right? Well,
Frank had to pay £500 compensation.

Oh, and look how he paid it.

Good, eh?

Dumped it on Dad's doorstep in a
wheelbarrow.

Then he tried to get away with a land
grab.

What do you mean?

This.

He was ordered to erect a fence, a new
fence, but he did it while I was away

last weekend.

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

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

Where were you yesterday lunchtime?

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

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

from a hole.

So I decided to wait.

So you were where around 2pm?

He was here.

I cooked his lunch.

Everything okay?

Police. About Frank.

You both live here with William?

No, we've got a house up in the village.

I own the garden centre.

Green Fingers runs in the family. Just
looking for a way of getting out the rat

race. So we've got the business and we
do holiday lets with the caravan and the

narrowboat. Which Frank complained
about?

Rhys Fleming, right.

Your name came up in a list of people
that volunteer with Frank.

Yeah, yeah, but only because her mum
made me. I work for Madeleine with the

training, so she got me to sign up.

Despite Frank.

Not a fan.

I was bullying an old man, so... I'm not
going to pretend he was all nice just

because he's dead. Sorry, Ty, but I'm
not.

We've logged any reported sightings, but
it's been five days now. I think she'd

been felled off.

There were some photos on Frank's phone
of this

woman.

That's Lorna Mackintosh.

Frank was investigating her for a cat
seduction.

Cat seduction?

Enticing other people's cats into her
home and keeping them there. Theft,

essentially.

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

Which are?

Oh, wait, it's just a joke.

People say that she fed her husband to
the cats.

Apparently she was married to a
professor.

Her neighbour said that post still
arrived for him, but nobody's ever seen

Right.

It looks like Frank put Madeleine
Saunders' address into his sat -nav

afternoon. Do you know why he might have
done that?

He must have wanted to look for evidence
while they were both out.

Evidence of what?

Frank noticed a pattern.

All of the dogs stolen recently, they
were all clients of Madeline.

Yeah, she's got pretty strong opinions
when it comes to dog behaviour.

As in any problem with the dog is
actually a problem with the owner.

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

To rehome them with other families?

That was a theory.

Did Storm's owners use Madeline?

Yeah, because of her barking.

Madeline thought it was because they
weren't giving her enough exercise.

Are you aware that someone used your
home computer to research divorce

last week?

I'm sorry, I thought we were talking.
Were you aware of it?

Yeah.

Yeah, it was me.

I was angry when I first found out that
Frank was helping a Sharni. I got over

it.

Because she's his ex -wife?

He would have zero contact, that was our
deal.

But you were all at her restaurant.

Yes, I know.

The Gazette booked it.

Was there still something between them?
No.

Briefly, they rekindled, or whatever it
is you want to call it, not long after

Frank and I were married. That was over
a decade ago. He hasn't spoken to her

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

Like I said, I got over it.

There is something that I wanted to
mention, actually.

Frank's solicitor phoned, and his
nephew, Ty, the one that found him,

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

Is this something Frank discussed with
you? I think he tried to. He just wasn't

very clear. Probably knew how I'd react.

What do you mean?

Well, he told me that he wanted to leave
something for Ty, and did I mind? I

said, no, of course not.

But I thought we were talking about a
flat deposit or something.

Not half.

Must have been quite a shock.

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

Has made me reflect a bit, though.

On him moving to Midsomer to be with
Daniella.

I mean, it's a bit unusual, no?

To move halfway across the country to be
with some girl that you met in the pub

on Christmas Eve.

You think Ty killed his uncle in order
to inherit?

I mean, I... I can't... I can't think
like that.

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

Tai Yang's living next door, right?

Yeah, he's there now.

I need to speak to him.

Have you seen this from the editor of
the Causton Gazette? I'll tell them no

comment for now.

No, no, no. She said that she received
an anonymous letter last week telling

to look into non -disclosure agreements
at Frankfold Software Company.

He was issuing gagging orders. Why?

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

Look into it. But I need you to go here
first. It's the woman from the photos.

Her name's Lorna McIntosh.

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

Can I help you?

I just wanted to say... Sorry.

About Frank.

About everything.

Look, I know I've no right to ask this,
but... I've got two kids at home sobbing

their eyes out.

You want me to keep looking?

You must know how Frank did it.

Are you there now?

Yeah, I'm on my way.

Barnaby. We've already spoken to the
police.

Is Ty still here?

Down there.

Why? Need a quick word?

Are you okay?

I have fever.

Story where?

Half.

As in half of everything.

On your 21st birthday?

It's the week after next.

You didn't know?

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

What are you asking me here?

You were covered in his blood.

I tried to help him. I had no idea about
his will. A man with no children, no

other nieces or nephews. Yeah, maybe I
get something, but not half.

No, no. Stay there.

Stay there. Charlie.

Charlie, you did good.

Sorry.

There you go.

Ah, thank you.

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

Not everyone appreciates the full
clowder.

Clowder? The collective noun for cat.

How many do you have here?

Oh, a pair.

They all belong to you?

You don't own a cat. You simply...

Borrow their attention for a short
while. Right.

It's just that some of your neighbors
have said that your cats are, in fact,

their cats.

That's absurd.

Do you feed other people's pets?

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

It's just that at least three local
families have asked you to give their

back, and you've refused.

Cats choose their people, not the other
way around.

But if I was...

Made aware that a family was missing
their animal, I would reunite them. That

goes without saying.

Is this really a police matter?

Potentially.

Where were you around 2pm yesterday?

I was here.

Alone. Why?

Is this you?

Indeed it is.

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

A vulnerable woman is exercising her
right to self -defense.

You're threatening the photographer.

I was minding my own business when
suddenly there's a man in the garden

camera.

Well, the man who took this photograph
was gathering evidence about the kidnap

of local cats.

He was a private investigator.

Frank Bailey?

Well, yesterday afternoon he was killed.

Stabbed. In the neck.

I'm sorry he lost his life.

But if he made a habit of this kind of
thing, I'm not entirely surprised.

Hey, I, uh, decided to finish early
today.

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

You can, shall we?

Right.

We have to go to the police.

No, hold on. It's... No.

The police need to see this right now.

Hello? Yeah, the solicitor I spoke to
earlier, your colleague, he said it

a while for the inheritance to come
through, but is there any way I can get

now?

Like today?

Sir, I've just been to the spot where
Aidan said that Storm was stolen.

Father Hinton was there.

Yeah, he said that he saw Frank and
Aidan arguing by the cemetery gate on

afternoon. He couldn't hear what they
were saying, but he felt from their body

language that it looked like Aidan was
pleading with Frank.

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

No.

Frank knew me.

He knew I could never harm an animal.

His theory was that you steal the dogs
because you care. You want them to have

better lives.

I've been tempted, believe me.

They're intelligent creatures.

I can

think of some exceptions.

These are animals that can keep a blind
person safe or spot that a person is

about to have a seizure.

My Labrador is being trained to sniff
out bowel cancer.

So if a client gives it five minutes on
a lead and wonders why it has

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

But I don't.

Where were you when Frank left the table
at the restaurant?

Sitting with the journalist.

I didn't move, ask anyone.

Are you accusing me?

I'd like to know more about your
dealings with Frank. Were you friends?

Work friends.

Well, personally, I liked him.

But it was a bit tricky with...

Everything with William.

The neighbour feud? Why would that
affect you?

My son, Edison, was an organ donor.

And the only good thing to come out of
his accident was Rhys over there.

He'd been on a transplant list for over
a year.

And then Edison's heart saved him.

Rhys has your son's heart?

Yeah.

He extended the lives of five people.

Reese was one of them.

You must be extremely proud.

He'd just finished his third year at
medical school when he died.

So he was always going to end up helping
people one way or another.

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

The whole family.

They're the reason we moved to Midsomer.

When the transplant coordinators put us
in contact.

Felt right.

And what about your daughter's
boyfriend, Ty?

What do you know about him?

You know she deserves better.

Well, not better. I don't mean to
sound... It's just that he

works so hard for those grades.

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

She'll be throwing it all away.

Do you think Daniela was the only reason
he came to Midsomer?

This is something I need to know about,
Ty.

You have to tell me.

If he's a... danger to my daughter.

Did he do this to Frank?

Five grand in cryptocurrency for the
safe return of Storm.

I should want to use our savings.

Don't do that.

If he gets her back.

How do we even know it's for real?
There's a chance that we can trace where

came from.

But he says we have to pay back tomorrow
if we want to see Tom again.

Leave it with us.

But in the meantime, I did want a word,
perhaps in private.

We don't have secrets.

It's about a conversation you had with
Frank the day before he was murdered. A

witness saw you in the cemetery.

You were pleading with him?

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

I told him to be professional with his
shiny.

You what?

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

Because if you did manage to get our dog
back, I'd obviously want to run off

with him.

You got back together with Frank after
your marriage ended, is that right?

Yeah, that was ten years ago.

It was a mistake, believe me.

Did you arrange to meet Frank?

No, I just bumped into him. In the
cemetery?

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

Look. No one was happy about being in
touch with Frank again. But he was the

best person to get Storm back and that's
all we care about.

We just want her home.

Okay.

Good night.

I've deleted the dating app.

I'm going to get a pet.

Hang on, when I suggested that, you said
it was going to... Oh, this is a great

idea. And to test drive dog ownership,
I'm taking you for a walk this week.

Walkies!

Now come round.

Town by William Fleming, just after 9am.

Electric dog training collar.

Banned in the UK.

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

But this one has been tampered with. It
was wired up to the mains.

Looks like it.

Electric burns on the neck.

And those scratch marks?

Probably defensive.

So he was trying to claw the collar off.
He knew what was happening.

Given the degree of rigor, I would
usually say he'd been dead for at least

hours. But with electrocution, the
violent muscle contractions caused rigor

set in earlier.

So it could be closer to four.

Giving us between 2 a .m. and 6 a .m.?
Roughly.

I'll let you know when I have more.

Come on, after you, sir.

Come on, lad.

Okay, uncle and nephew killed two days
apart, both involving some sort of pet

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

They're still treating him as a suspect
in his uncle's murder.

We can't rule him out. He was covered in
his blood. And Frank's death was going

to make him a very wealthy young man if
he made it to his 21st birthday.

Or, assuming that I was innocent, he
turned up moments after Frank had been

stabbed and maybe he witnessed
something.

Look at this.

It's been ripped off.

Presumably how the killer gained entry.

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

You'd think smashing the door would...

alert Ty to an intruder waking him up if
he was asleep and then surely he'd

fight back to stop the collar going.

Unless the door was smashed after the
event.

Which the killer would only do if...
They wanted to disguise the fact that Ty

let them in.

Or that they had a set of teeth.

How long had Ty been renting the caravan
from you?

Since Easter.

He said he wanted to save some money. He
wanted to go travelling.

He had all sorts of plans.

Did anything change with him over the
past few weeks? Any unusual visitors?

No, no.

I mean, his girlfriend had come to see
him and my grandson, Rhys.

And were you here last night?

I was in bed.

You didn't...

See or hear anything at all? His
bedroom's at the front. He wouldn't have

anything.

You all right, Dad?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm fine, I'm
fine. Police behaving themselves?

Have you been drinking, Mr Fleming? No.

Just don't want you interrogating him.

Who has keys to the caravan?

Well, me, obviously.

And you've got one, haven't you?

And we keep a spare under a rock.

And I believe they've actually got one
next door.

from before we fell out.

Yes.

So, well, I'm not sure if there's been
an error or... I'm just looking at the

wrong thing, but we are definitely not
overdrawn.

I'm sure.

Maybe they have security or something.
It's like they're working their way

through the family.

We still don't know why Ty was killed.

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

No, he wasn't interested. But he was
found wearing a dog collar, right? They

have to be connected.

There are other possibilities.

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

No, not at all.

He was due to turn 21 in a couple of
weeks, but as he died before reaching

age, he won't become eligible for his
inheritance.

You won't have to worry about selling
the house or splitting the estate, after

all. And your logic is what, exactly?

What, that I killed him before he could
inherit?

It would be helpful to know where you
were overnight.

Asleep. Is there any way that you can
prove that you were at home? My husband

has been dead less than 48 hours. I was
in bed alone.

He had a delivery shift on his bike last
night.

Then he was going to meet us in the
park.

But he texted.

He said he was going straight home.

When you say us...

Me and Rhys.

We were having some beers.

She was home by 10 .45.

Rhys dropped her off.

Not that you're keeping tabs.

Any other... Did Ty tell you anything
about finding Frank's body that he might

not have shared with us?

No.

It's possible that he saw something and
that that's what got him killed, so if

there's anything at all... There isn't.

Were you two getting on okay?

We were fine.

Better than fine.

He was like... He was like... No,

you don't get to do this.

You did everything you could to
undermine us.

That's not true.

Mum, you reported him to the police for
dealing drugs.

That came from you.

Time.

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

He gave her these packets of white
powder to look after for him, and

found them and I flushed them away.

Those weren't ties, they were mine.

He just took the blame when you found
them. Daniela!

She's upset.

If anyone was the bad influence, it was
me.

They were my drug.

Think about what...

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

thing then, isn't it? Because Edison is
the one who wanted to be a doctor, not

me!

She's angry.

She's impulsive. You can imagine how
that row with Frank could have

You think she snapped?

She grabs a knife on the way out of the
kitchen, follows Frank out, then Ty

turns up and witnesses it. He covers up
for her to begin with, but then maybe

Daniela and Ty, they fall down. He's
going to talk.

It's a credible scenario.

Let's see if Rhys knows anything. He's
friends with both of them.

What's all this from the Gazette?

Oh, I haven't seen that yet.

I asked the editor to send over
everything that she had on gagging

Frank's old software company.

Well, she certainly delivered. She says
two lawsuits were started against Frank

and then suddenly dropped, presumably
because he paid to make them go away.

first litigant is one Perry Fleming.

William's son?

He apparently spent six years employed
as Frank's office manager before trying

to sue him. Somewhat unfortunate you
forgot to mention that.

Who's the second litigant?

the future of digital encryption,
Professor Lorna Macintosh. That's our

lady. So she isn't married to Professor
Macintosh. She is Professor Macintosh.

Yeah, I worked for him. Long time ago
now.

And you didn't feel the need to mention
this to my sergeant? Nobody asked me for

my employment history.

You tried to take legal action against
Frank. Why?

Someone had to. The whole environment in
that place was toxic.

What did he do to you specifically?

Well, let's see.

Outed me to clients.

Humiliated me in front of my colleagues.

Constant homophobic remarks.

Banter, as he called it.

So you were suing for constructive
dismissal?

I wanted to.

But Rhys was waiting for his heart
transplant and things with my ex, Noah,

that was all falling apart.

In the end, it was just easier to take
the money and sign the NDA.

Frank paid you off.

I needed to move on with my life.

And did you?

What do you mean?

Frank forced you out of your job, but he
was still living next door to your

father, bullying him in his own home. It
seems like you couldn't get away from

him. I don't know where you're going
with this. Now, Frank is dead, and the

person most likely to have witnessed his
murder is also dead on your father's

property. Nothing to do with me.

And the letters to the local paper.

What? Sending a complaint about Frank's
local hero award.

Hardly the action of someone who's moved
on.

I don't know what you mean.

Really. Because those letters referred
to the non -disclosure agreement.

How many people knew about those?

I did.

That made me sick.

Calling him a hero?

I wanted people to know what he was
really like. And I don't care. I'll say

I'm glad he's dead.

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

It was another life.

Put it away, please.

I looked you up online.

You developed encryption software,
lectured on cyber security, but then you

academia to help Frank launch his
company. What did you do for him

Do you want a cuddle? Yes.

It's a time for a cuddle.

Professor McIntosh.

I wrote encryption algorithms for
identity verification.

When you sign something online, you need
software that will keep that signature

secure and legal.

That's what I was working on.

Frank turned it into an app.

Right, so you were the technical brains
behind Frank's startup. But less than a

year after this photo was taken, you
tried suing Frank. What happened?

I left that company.

The idea of building something from
scratch.

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

Who he was.

Did Frank do something to you?

Not me.

Well, not to start with.

Perry Fleming?

Frank would humiliate him in front of
the entire office and then pretend it

all a joke.

We have it on record that you and Perry
started legal action against Frank, but

then you both withdrew.

I tried to stand up for Perry, but once
I did, there was a target on my back.

Did Frank bully you out too?

If I stayed, it would be hell.

He made that quite clear.

And so... You didn't want to go back to
academia?

Oh, no, no, I did.

But everything with Frank left me...

I don't know.

I've been struggling.

Cats are more straightforward.

Oh, I know what they all say about me.

The crazy cat woman thing.

But if it keeps people away, then fine.

I'm not crazy.

I just want to be left alone.

When I asked you yesterday about Frank,
you concealed the fact that you knew

him.

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

withhold information?

Oh, you're a beauty.

Oh, you're my little beauty.

I can't get hold of Rhys Fleming, sir.
I've left a message.

Okay.

A pet detective stabbed in the neck and
left inside the kennel of the dog he was

trying to find.

Who belongs to his ex -wife.

And now the murder of his nephew, who
may or may not have witnessed his

death.

And there's something about Aidan's
encounter with Frank in the cemetery.

Something he wasn't saying.

See what you can dig up on him.

How does that link into Ty?

I don't know.

There are other possibilities.

Frank's wife, for one. We know that she
was contemplating divorce.

And the fact that Ty didn't live to see
his 21st birthday saved her inheritance.

You always say look for the simplest
explanation.

I'm a simple man.

But that's Daniela, surely.

She had an argument with Frank moments
before he was killed. We know that she

went outside passing a kitchen full of
knives.

And then victim number two is her
boyfriend. The timing works that...

He saw her killing Frank.

You're forgetting one thing, blood. In
this version of events, Daniela is

killing in a fit of rage. She hasn't
planned it. She hasn't taken steps to

her clothes.

Why wasn't she soaked in blood?

Her mother, then?

Premeditated?

Perhaps Frank was right that she was
stealing her client's dog and she knew

he was on to her. He was trying to get
to her house, right? Rock -solid alibi,

though. Several people confirmed she
didn't leave the table.

I'm wondering if this is actually about
Frank's life before he became a PI.

A software company.

Perry Fleming and Lorna McIntosh both
have a long history with him.

And both of them lied about it.

My initial assessment was correct.

Centricular fibrillation leading to
cardiac arrest caused by electrocution.

Not even 21.

He's saving up to go travelling.

You know the rule.

We don't go there.

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

Sorry?

We've got blood under the fingernails,
but before you get excited, it could

out to be his own. Oh, from scrabbling
around the collar.

Exactly. The lab's taking a look.

Thank you.

I hope I didn't outstay my welcome at
your place the other night.

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

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

Are you still taking Paddy out this
lunchtime?

I'm not sure about the doctor thing,
actually. That was possibly the wine

talking. Well, I promised him you'd do
it. It'll be crushed. And on the subject

of overenthusiastic months... Sorry I'm
late.

You know that you asked me to do a full
360 on Aidan Hughes.

What have you got?

I spoke to HR at the mortgage broker
where he said that he works, and

he doesn't work there anymore.

He was fired over a month ago.

What for?

Turning up late, failing to turn up at
all, and getting high at lunchtime.

That'll do it.

But she also said that I wasn't the
first person to ask about Aidan this

Frank called on Monday asking the same
question.

What did she tell him? She wouldn't give
him any detail, but...

Frank obviously knew something about
Aidan because he was doing his own

investigation into him.

I was clean for about ten years, but
then it crept back in.

And your wife doesn't know?

No, and she can't find out.

She's always said once we had kids, if I
went back to it, it'd be game over.

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

I'm hoping to line something else up,
and I can say I was headhunted, can't I?

And in the meantime?

I put on my suit, waved goodbye.

Park up near the cemetery, walk the dog
at lunch and wait for the day to end.

And you're still using?

Some days.

Some days I manage not to.

Frank cottoned on, didn't he?

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

He must have seen me.

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

He said, uh...

If the father of Ashani's kids was using
drugs, then she had a right to know.

He gave me till the end of the week to
tell him. Which, by your own admission,

would end your marriage.

So what did you do?

Did you find a way to silence him?

Of course not, no.

Did Ty know they were using, too?

All the delivery riders used the
cemetery as a shortcut.

Did he see you?

Blackmailing?

You're both completely wrong.

I didn't touch either of them.

And I... I actually have an alibi for
when

Frank was killed.

I was with Danny.

Daniel Atunda?

Where?

We were round the side of the
restaurant. I asked her not to tell you

Because you were buying drugs off her.

I'm sorry.

I probably should have called or
something. Of course not. Don't worry.

Come in.

Good boy, Paddy.

Good boy, Paddy.

Good boy.

No, no, no.

Give it to me. That's it now.

Paddy? Hello?

Who's there?

Paddy!

Paddy!

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

At least he's safe.

I think I'll pass on dog ownership.

Not my idea of a hobby.

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

Sorry, but I found this for her.

They must have taken it off to crawl
into the bushes and decided running away

from me was more important than going
back for it. If I was being chased by

I'd definitely prioritise getting away.

Holler, muzzle, freak.

It's a dog -patching kit, isn't it?

That's what I thought.

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

We had a key ring like this when we went
sailing. The cork stops the keys from

sinking if you drop them in the water.

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

Where's that map that Kim gave us?

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

Kim said that Storm was a problem
barker. That would make her difficult to

wouldn't it?

If she stays in one place, the noise
would attract attention.

Yeah, if they kept her moving.

then she's never in one place long
enough for it to be an issue.

She's been kept on a boat.

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

there on Wednesday, and yesterday it was
gone.

Shall we?

You okay, Dad?

I thought you might like a bit of
company.

Anything need doing?

It's pretty quiet, to be honest.

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

A bit of a distraction is probably for
the best.

Plus, it helps stop you being on your
own.

Oh, I'm all right.

I...

Spotted opposite the mallard pub

Is that it up

ahead Stay

right there

I've been taking good care of her.

How many times have you done this?

She's the third.

I do feel bad for the owner.

No, you don't. You saw an easy way to
make money. You stole a member of

someone's family. I needed to help a
friend.

They owe money to people.

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

Daniela, we know about the drugs.

She just spiralled after exams finished.
Like...

You know, once that focus was gone,
everything with her brother just...

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

And now she owes money to someone.

A kid from school. His older brother
sells pills, and he said that she could

have them for free if she held onto a
package for him. Only Madeline found the

drugs, thought they were ties, and
flushed them away.

Yeah.

Yeah, so he said that she had to pay him
back.

It was so much... Ty was working extra
delivery shifts to help. And then...

I remember this guy I met at this dog
training thing.

He said he was looking for specific
breeds to sell and that... he wouldn't

questions if I ever... found one.

We'll need his details.

What happens now?

We arrest you.

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

Who else knows about this? No one. I
told Daniel I was getting the money from

dad.

Where did you learn to use such
sophisticated encryption?

What? The ransom note.

The tech team were impressed.

You used some kind of dark web proxy.

I didn't send a ransom note.

Honestly, that wasn't me.

I'm not going to pretend to know what a
tool node IP is, but...

You're the expert, aren't you?

Professor McIntosh.

Our digital team can take it from here,
if you prefer. They'll do a deep dive.

There's no need.

I sent it.

I've been feeling sick ever since.

And why did you do it, then? After
everything with Frank, I wanted to get

to work, but I... I get very anxious
now.

It's all got a bit out of control.

I stopped opening them months ago, so
I'm not sure how bad it is. You thought

Storm's family could pay your bills?

Their photos were all over the papers.

They looked like they were well off.

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

What's that got to do with it?

I thought they'd pay.

Dog people are crazy.

Thank you so much.

A Shirley Hughes called it in. Yeah, at
3 .48.

Apparently when Uniform returned Storm
to the family, they told her where the

ransom note came from.

They did what?

I know. A Shirley said she came here to
confront Lorna. That's when she found

her.

Can you get rid of that?

They're all over the forensic field.

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

They call them snare poles, I believe.

The noose closes around the neck to hold
the animal.

I was here interviewing her just over an
hour ago.

What time did she leave?

2 .45.

But look at this.

It operates on a timer.

And it said to dispense dry cat food at
3pm.

So those crumbs on her hand... She was
dead on the floor by the time it went

off. Her cats eat the food off her.

Lovely. But is that at least been the
point in time of death?

The doors were all locked, weren't they?

Yeah, but that window was open and that
plant pot had been knocked over.

Killed through the window, which might
tell us something psychologically.

They're trying to keep their distance.

Potentially, which is a shift in
mindset.

Frank and Ty were both killed at very
close quarters, so what was special

the law now?

Maybe her murder's not connected to the
others. A dog kennel, a training collar,

and then a dog snare. It's too much of a
coincidence.

Okay.

Lorna doesn't have any connection to Ty
that we know of. She doesn't have any

connection to anyone, quite
deliberately.

There was one visitor, though, sir.

Neighbours said that Lorna led a man
into her house at lunchtime today, early

40s, slim, blue beanie and a beard.

Lorna?

Are you sure?

I mean, obviously you're sure, but why
would anyone want to hurt Lorna?

Who's Lorna?

Someone your dad used to work with.

Come on.

Let's leave him to it. But I want to...
Rhys, you're in no position to argue.

I still can't believe what he's been up
to. We knew nothing about it. Did you

visit Lorna at home today?

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

Was that a regular thing? No, I hadn't
seen her for probably about a year.

So why the visit today?

Gossip, basically.

Our old boss had just been murdered, and
I know it's not very nice to pick over

it, but he wasn't very nice, so... Did
Lorna have theories about why Frank was

killed? Well, if he was still behaving
the same way around women, her money was

on his wife.

And where were you between 2 .45 and 3 p
.m. today?

You think I'm involved in this?

Help us out.

Where were you?

On Dad's boat.

When Rhys phoned us from the station,
told us what he'd been doing, he said

dog had caused some damage.

I've got someone renting it from
tomorrow, so I thought I'd go and do

repairs. Did anyone see you?

I was inside the boat, wasn't I? You
didn't see anyone at all.

Do you want me to make something up?

No. I didn't see anyone.

No alibi.

Clear motive for Frank's murder.

Access retired.

The only person with a clear connection
to Lawton.

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

Blur. Hi.

Under Ty's fingernails, it's a familial
match for William Fleming. So, William's

son or his grandson?

The genetic relatedness is exactly 50%.
It can only be his son.

We've just let him drive away.

That's his truck.

Perry?

Harry, we need to open up!

Winter?

It won't look good if you run.

We have DNA.

Look. This is harassment now.

I'll say it again.

There's DNA.

When Ty fought back, when you put that
collar around his neck, he scratched

No. Someone's made a mistake.

Then show me your arms.

I didn't want to hurt Ty or Lorna. It
was only ever about Frank.

So this was revenge for what he did to
your work?

And for what he did to my dad.

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

Not unless somebody stops them.

And Ty saw you?

He saw the blood on my clothes.

I promised him cash, but then he was
getting that inheritance. He didn't need

money anymore.

And the only way to silence him was to
kill him.

And Lorna?

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

You left his company years ago.

When I saw him going after my dad, it
was like it was all starting off again.

couldn't let that happen, could I? Not
when I wasn't going to be there to

protect him.

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

What are those?

It's private.

These are all for Reef.

You're writing them now because...
Because I've left it too late.

I knew I had symptoms, but... Head in
the sand.

Cancer?

It's fairly... You know... I'm not going
to be there in person, so...

I'm sorry.

Do your family know? Nobody does.

Rhys' heart transplant's not going to
last. He's going to need another one,

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

I can't have him thinking about Frank.

My sergeant is going to place you under
arrest now.

Am I looking at life for this?

I would think so, yes.

Hopefully not too long, then.

I just had to pay for that guy's dinner
because someone jumped up and stole his

sausage roll.

We've all been there.

Seriously, Paddy.

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

people from mountains, sniff out
disease.

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

But did you see what he just did?

Harry's alibi for Lorna's murder checked
out.

It was on his boat.

The pub CCTV, it points straight across
there. You could see his boat and that

he was on it.

Then why did he just confess to killing
her?

Maybe he's trying to protect someone.

His father, his son?

Neither of them could have killed Lorna.

Rhys was in our custody suite and
William was there to collect him. Who

would carry life on them?

If Betty needed an organ transplant, if
her life was saved by someone's

sacrifice, I'd do almost anything for
them.

Madeline Saunders.

Without her son's heart, Rhys wouldn't
be here.

But why would Madeline want to kill
Lorna? And how does that connect to

killing Ty and Frank? I mean, we do
still think that it's Perry, right?

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

But why would Madeline...

Madeline

told me that her dog could sniff out
cancer.

Perry said no one knows about his
diagnosis, but what if Madeleine did

used that knowledge to her advantage?

You said how?

What if Madeleine is the one with the
motive, not Perry, and she persuaded him

to kill for her? But why would Madeleine
want to kill Frank?

I don't think she did.

But she hated Ty, didn't she? She tried
everything to keep him away from her

daughter.

And Ty turned up in that car park
moments after Frank. Two men of the same

height and build, both wearing dark
jackets, both in full -face motorbike

helmets. You think Ty was the target all
along? It was a case of mistaken

identity. Wrong time, wrong place.

It's possible.

Tell Sarah we'll be back.

So I found him.

Uniform took him to the river to locate
the knife.

And you're right. It wasn't Frank being
lured to the restaurant car park. It was

definitely Ty.

And the takeaway that he was meant to
collect was ordered to a church hall.

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

The whole thing was a trap.

Daniela's not here.

I wanted to speak to you.

Oh, I... Oh, sorry.

Charlie, awake.

This must be the dog you mentioned, the
one that can sniff out cancer.

He's still training.

He was good enough to spot Perry's
illness, though, wasn't he?

I know what you mean.

You do know, Madeline.

Shall we sit down?

You did an incredible thing, allowing
your son's heart to go to wreath.

I can't imagine how difficult that was.

And how grateful Perry was.

He always said... if there was anything
he could do.

And then there was.

You wanted Ty to disappear, and you
asked Perry to make that happen.

When I found the drugs in Daniela's bag,

I had to do something.

And it was like it all fell

into place.

Charlie had been behaving strangely
around Perry, and I'd eventually

him to go to the GP. And he confided in
me about his diagnosis.

I saw a solution.

You saw a way to take advantage of a
terminally ill man.

Perry. I know what I owe you.

When I see Rhys laughing with his mates
or kicking a football, when I can still

look in on him at night, I know that's
only possible because of what you lost.

I would have done anything you asked me
to do, but you shouldn't have asked me

to do that.

I just thought that...

You were more able to take the risk.

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

All the planning for Ty's murder, luring
him to the restaurant, that was you.

I used to wait behind the kitchen to
collect Daniela after her shift.

Hardly anyone used that area.

Just the takeaway drivers and... ..the
app.

The delivery app that Ty worked for. You
could see the rider's name, but...

..he wasn't wrong.

He'd accepted the order.

Then right on time, there he was.

He was coming from the wrong direction,
but, I mean, black jacket, same sort of

helmet.

It was only when I heard him screaming
that I realized it wasn't Ty.

Then I heard the bike. I knew I had to
hide him.

The only place I could see was that
kennel.

That story about buying Ty's silence.

That was a lie.

He didn't witness anything.

And he was still alive.

So you tried again, in the most brutal
way.

You electrocuted him.

Everyone was saying that Frank had been
killed because of his PI work.

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

She told me it would be painless for
him.

It wasn't.

And his eyes.

When I put the collar on, he woke up.

When he realized what I was doing, it
was a real terror.

We know that Perry didn't kill Lorna.

You did that.

He told her everything.

I had to talk to someone.

And we could have trusted her. She
understood.

I couldn't take the risk.

We tried to do it quickly.

She didn't know it was coming.

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

Was it worth it?

I thought I was helping, Pop.

You were.

She was saving my daughter's life.

The way Edison saved Reese.

Except Daniela didn't need to save it.
She did.

She worked so hard.

And she was just throwing it all away.
From the moment that she met Ty,

her life went off the rails.

You mean it went in the direction she
chose?

You do not know what you're talking
about.

Exactly.

She's your daughter, not your pet.

You don't own her.

I don't realise that.

No.

You think you can control everything and
you even managed to control me, but

it's over.

I did what you wanted, now we're quits.

Mum?

What's going on?

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

Alas, thank you.
