Original subtitles

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

I mean, it's been six years and there's been no one who likes me.

Sorry, who are you?

Mackenzie Clark, Detective Inspector, Metropolitan Police.

Mackenzie used to have your job.

Why'd you leave? Is there anything going on between Mackenzie Clark and Glenn

Strong? Leaving him at the altar six years ago, flying to London and never

speaking to him again.

The boss was going to be her mother -in -law.

What's the situation? Is there going to be an inquiry?

It's there to be a matter of months.

Months?

We are the only station in the whole of Australia that will employ you, even

temporarily.

Okay, guys. Three, two, one.

Hey, J .D.!

Congratulations. It's the end of our eight -week running program, and today's

the day we put all of our hard work to the test. I'm here with Curtin. Hey,

Jadies.

So we are on the start line of the annual Cove 10K in the beautiful

Gardens in Dalton Cove. Wherever you are in the world, Jadies, I hope that you

can join with us in running 10K and discovering what we're capable of.

Okay, make sure you've had your jade elevate.

Stay hydrated and get ready to be your absolute best.

Go JD!

Go JD!

Okay, great. I think we've got it.

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

Perfect. Okay, see you there.

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

Or more people are going to die.

Hey, you've reached Curtis.

Can't come to the phone right now, so if you just leave your name and number,

that'd be...

You are not coming through here.

Road's closed.

I need to get milk.

Well, you need... Oh, Shelley.

No worries.

Just one of the runners.

Yep.

You let her through?

Take care and have a nice day.

Ah, Mackenzie Clark.

Hi, Daisy.

Hi.

I heard you were back.

Temporarily.

Are you, um... Are you trying to get through?

Road's closed.

You let Shelley through.

Come on, Trev.

She shouldn't even be back here.

I don't want to be back here, Trevor, but I am. And because of that, I'm in a

bad mood all the time. And I'm just looking for someone to take it out on.

that going to be you?

Remember that, and act accordingly.

At this pace, it's a PB.

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

All right, guys, let's get a read.

Feeling good, babe? Yeah, 100%. Jade, give us a wave.

Go, Jadies!

Honestly, most beautiful place in the world, and these glutes just spoil it.

should have stocked out the front of a surf club for anyone who litters and

just throw rotten fruit at them.

That's a human rights violation.

Oh, human rights.

Hey, hey, look who's coming.

Whoa, go, Glenn.

Come on, Cole. Come on, Glenn.

Woo. Nice one, Glenn.

No.

Missed it by 30 seconds. Doesn't matter, mate. Beautiful run.

How are you not even pottering?

Woo. Oh,

thank you.

Can I just get in here?

Oh, did you go behind at the end there?

Are you okay?

Can I?

It collapsed just after the finish line. It looked like a heart attack. I didn't

see it, but I heard the crowd.

Hang on.

Were you here?

You actually came out to watch a fun run? A mother comes out to support her

Shocking.

Ben's here.

Yeah, I'm calling.

Curtis Valliafa.

You know him?

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

Was he a runner?

800. He was good.

Listen to this.

Hi, Mackenzie. It's Curtis Faliafa.

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

One more people are going to die.

When did you get that?

About an hour ago.

Did you call him back?

No answer. I guess he was running.

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

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

It can happen.

Undiagnosed heart disorder, sudden cardiac arrest, aneurysm.

It's rare, though.

What's that?

Phone number? Yeah, maybe.

Looks like he finds a vomit in his mouth.

Maybe he just went too hard.

Not both at his time.

Sweating a bit.

Just ran 10k.

Or... It's poison.

Maybe, but nothing familiar in the symptoms.

People do just have heart attacks.

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

they're in trouble?

That people are going to die?

Who was with him?

His partner.

Jay.

McCready?

Um, before we, uh, you know, just to clarify, so you're officially working

now?

So it seems.

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

Does it?

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

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

Still, what would it be here?

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

Get your toes out of the way.

I won't step on them.

How does someone just die like that?

We didn't even go that fast.

You know, it was just about participating and showing the Jadies

showing up and getting out there is more important than speed. Sorry, the

Jadies? My followers.

Online.

Jade's an influencer.

I don't really like that term.

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

It's not just about me.

Right. Is that why your company's called Jade?

We focus on exercise and wellness, but we've also expanded into active wear and

exercise equipment and supplements.

And it's successful?

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

Did you notice anything different about Curtis this morning?

No. Was he worried about anything?

Oh, just the usual.

Work, the business. I don't know. I guess what everybody worries about.

Hi, Mackenzie. It's Curtis Faliafa.

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

One more people are going to die.

He left that on my phone just before he died.

Do you have any idea what that could be about?

None whatsoever.

Did Curtis eat or drink much up until he collapsed?

No. We fast in the morning. Nothing during the run?

I don't think so.

Wait, hang on. He did have a drink.

Where from?

Yeah, it's the only drink station.

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

And could anyone else get access to the water or the cup? Oh, everyone.

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

Flat out from go to wow, can barely keep up.

And do you hand them the cup?

Fill them up, put them out, people take them. Then they chuck them all over the

place.

Right.

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

I don't know.

A phone number?

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

You see what you think is poison?

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

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

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

But Curtis is the only victim.

He could have eaten or drank anything.

Hmm.

Let's look into that.

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

Including the cups?

Including the cups.

All of them.

So to find any trace evidence of poison in the cups, I add solvent and water to

each cup.

Combine it with the other samples.

Ten batches. We then run them through the...

Death top centrifuge.

And you're looking for the poison?

Not strictly.

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

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

There has to be something.

Does there?

Look at all these cups.

The idea that somehow there's poison in one of them is absolutely... Oh, that's

three a hit.

They're having a laugh.

What is it?

I don't know yet. I'll have to send the samples off to the labs in town to go

through the FCRI machine.

Could take a while, but it's something.

So one of these cups had something in it. At least one. It could be more.

But no one else has any symptoms.

It had to be intended for Curtis.

There's no outside chance it was random?

Not random.

He left me a message.

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

managed to get the poisoned one into Curtis' hand?

Yeah.

It's impossible.

Apparently not.

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

I told you, the place was chaos.

Hundreds of runners pounding through the bush. They're all grabbing cups.

And you knew Curtis?

I guess. You guess yes or no?

Yeah.

He was a friend.

He doesn't seem very sad.

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

But you used to? I used to coach him in footy for years.

What happened?

I stopped coaching.

What happened to your hand?

I caught it in the boat rack.

I... So we've got Curtis Filiapa.

He's 32.

Super fit.

He's the partner of a successful influencer.

She doesn't like that word.

He is poisoned by something in a cup that he took from the drink station.

Glenn is narrowing down which of the cups had our suspicious substance in it.

Once we find it, that is our weapon.

And we're sure Curtis was the target?

He knew he was in danger. Because of the message he left on your phone, that

couldn't be a coincidence.

No, it could.

If coincidences happen, which they don't.

Keith Cole was staffing the drink station.

He knew Kurt. He thought he was being funny about it. There was something

on there.

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

What are you up to? I just thought I'd put my craft skills to good use, so I

the founding member of the Dolphin Cove Crafty Cats.

Load aboard.

Who else had opportunity and access to the cup?

Well, I put together a timeline of Curtis's race based on what I found on

socials. Here we are, the start of it.

Hey, Jadies, congratulations.

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

Here's another one.

Woo!

Look, Curtis drank from that.

Yeah, she did too.

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

Yeah, that's the drink station.

And there's Jane. And there's Curtis.

Having a good day?

Yeah, 100%. Jade, give us a wipe.

Yeah.

Jadies! That's all I've got.

So we've got Keith Cole at the scene, as well as Jade, who's Australia's most

successful wellness entrepreneur, selling supplements.

Famous for triumphing over cancer.

Twice.

What's that?

It was the second time.

She also had cancer when she was in high school, do you remember? Oh yeah, of

course, Year 9.

She was sick for months, she had the chemo, the work. Yeah, she was such a

kid, then all of a sudden everyone was rallying around her, raising money, 40

teams shaved their heads, it was amazing. And then she beat it. Well it

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

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

Oh my god, you're joking!

For juices?

Uh, supplements.

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

large private equity firm in Singapore.

That was the price.

Where would that money go?

Jade's company is owned 50 -50 by Jade and Curtis.

Right. So if he dies?

Jade gets the lot.

40 million bucks.

Is that enough to poison your partner?

Wow. We're in the wrong business.

Maybe I should start taking those bribes.

In this town, what would you get?

Ten bucks and a stubby?

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

Does that mean in terms of renting your place out?

Oh, yeah.

Oh, sorry.

Oh, no, it's fine. No big deal.

Happy where I am, you know.

Looking over the pub car park. It's lively.

Are you suggesting I'm responsible?

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

How much money do you think I need?

I loved Curtis more than any amount of money. That's not even about that for

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

selling them at the market.

I've done pretty well out of it, though. Look, I'm not going to say I don't like

what money can do. I just hate what I have to do for it. Endless posting,

photos, living my whole life online.

I'm really looking forward to selling my business and throwing my phone into the

sea. Jade, sorry.

Just to let you know, I've cancelled the filming we had scheduled and I've put a

simple message of In Memoriam on all the accounts.

Thank you.

Sorry.

Do you mind if I just...

Who's he?

Nick, our manager.

Hey,

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

With you?

In theory, yes.

Why? In the spirit of teamwork.

Properly welcome you back to Dolphin Cove. Oh, I won't be here that long.

Still, it's a thing people do when they work together.

Not really my thing.

Sure.

Is Mackenzie coming in for a drink?

Doesn't like coming for a drink, apparently.

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

Or anything.

I get it.

She's a better detective than you, and you're worried.

She's not a better detective than me.

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

The case is still open.

They left the front wheel behind.

Whoever pinched her couldn't have got that far.

I am a good detective.

I was managing fine without a partner, but need some hot shot thinking she's

better than everyone.

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

How much of that do you think she... Knowing Mackenzie Clark, every word.

What have you found?

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

Partial print, nothing that helps.

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

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

We know Trevor had a go at me again this morning.

He can hold a grudge.

He's not the only one.

Yeah.

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

He just grabbed the cup off the table. How could the killer make sure that he

took the right one?

Maybe it is random.

Really?

Even after the victim left a message on my phone? I'm just saying it's possible

it wasn't a targeted murder.

You think I'm wrong?

I would never say that.

Because you're scared.

I'm not scared.

No, you look scared.

Okay. Shall we bet on it then?

Don't lose your head.

Same stakes as always.

Take away from Franco's fish and chips.

Yeah, you're on.

Let me know when Tox is in.

I will hand deliver it myself and claim my winnings. Oh, good luck with that.

Frankie.

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

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

Fine with me.

It's fine with me, then.

Hello.

In here.

Oh, hey, Mac.

Hey, yeah.

I got us some takeaway.

Yeah, Mac is taking Frankie.

Just for the night.

OK.

I should leave, let you guys... Yeah, see you, Mac.

Bye. Best behaviour, Frankie.

Frankie, you could have told me.

I'm officially in remission and so fortunate to have gotten here without

conventional medicine.

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

anything. I believe in you guys.

This account, Frankie, called Just In Time, pops up over and over again.

So many comments.

Who are you?

Why are you so obsessed with Jade?

Any thoughts?

Hey!

This is private property.

Good morning, Mackenzie.

You can't walk through here.

Well, it's an extra two minute.

Your mum doesn't have a problem with it. Well, I'm not my mum.

No, people like her.

Here you go. Flat white, extra weak.

And extra hot. We've talked about this. That's as hot as I can get it before the

milk burns and the coffee's ruined.

Okay, I'm here. What do you want?

Um, just wanted to start the day by shouting my colleague.

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

I like chocolate milk.

You mean like children have?

No, that's absolutely fine. One of those, please, Daisy.

How are you putting up with him?

Me?

She's a difficult one.

Oh, my God. Found my pink bike yet?

Remember, it's missing the front wheel.

The case is still open.

I have been walking everywhere.

You should see my blisters.

Okay. You wanted me out. Brilliant.

There you go.

Thanks.

Glenn's an idiot.

He should have said something.

I never would have... No, it's okay. No, no, no, it's not okay.

Common courtesy, in my opinion. If it helps, I cracked it at him after you

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

Look, before we, um... Last night, you may have heard me speaking a little bit

out of turn.

Sorry is what I'm saying.

It wasn't appropriate or professional, and I am both those things, generally.

I want us to have a good relationship, have partners, work together, that sort

of thing.

A team.

Felix? I found something interesting in Curtis's messages.

Go on.

Pretty heated exchange with Nick Desage, the manager. All right, send it

through.

Colin, come on!

Ooh.

The deal a bit shaky.

What? Well, my Mandarin's a bit rusty, but it sounded like, don't worry,

everything's on track.

And it is.

On track.

With Curtis out of the way anyway.

What?

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

Curtis sent you that message about two weeks ago?

Conversation about what?

I never found out.

All that time?

And you never asked? Well, he didn't bring it up again, so I figured it was

a case of the jitters.

Pretty normal when it's such a big deal. It would have been fine.

What would that have cost you?

Your commission on $40 million? I don't do it for the money. How much?

10 % plus a bonus.

You must have been angry.

Angry? No.

Curtis just wanted to be across everything.

They're both like that. I mean, look at this.

Supplement ingredients, all supplied locally because they want to be in

of their supply chain.

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

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

They both just care about the details.

And are the sales back on track?

We're going to Singapore soon for the launch.

Your movements during the fun run.

You filmed Curtis and Jade's reel at the start line and then you took another of

them at the halfway point. At the drink station.

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

Do you know what this is?

Looks like a phone number.

I don't recognise it.

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

Another recorded message.

Belarus. Not connected.

Is this it?

Is what it?

This. Police life.

Dialing random numbers all day. Picking up cups.

The glorified street sweeper. Not even.

They'd have a better uniform.

Well, one of those cops was a vital clue.

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

You know, I'm wearing out a bit of shoe leather.

Community policing.

That's what I volunteered for.

You volunteered to help the police.

And we're helping Mac by calling that number in all these countries to see if

can work out what it is.

And sometimes police work is dull and repetitive.

That doesn't mean it's not important.

I just feel like I have more to offer.

Fine. You take Zimbabwe and work backwards.

Fine. That's really not my thing.

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

give your thoughts on counsellors.

Much of a borderline defamatory. It is all true, Felix.

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

It's up to you.

I'll go and ring Zimbabwe then.

Like Frankie?

Should I have us up?

Fine.

What did you find in the autopsy?

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

attack.

Okay, so that confirms the theory that whatever he drank from that cup caused

it.

Are we still waiting on blood talk?

I did warn you it would take a while, but given that a substance was found in

one of the cups, and as much as I hate to admit it...

I think it's safe to say he was poisoned.

Yeah, but how did the killer poison just one cup and make sure Curtis drank from

it? One more thing, there was a bruise under Curtis' eye.

I didn't see it.

You wouldn't, but at least a week old and concealed by make -up.

What are you doing?

The left eye.

Keith Cole had a cut on his right hand.

What happened to your hand?

Caught it in the boat rack.

Back before you go.

It's not just me she walks out on.

I mean, rooms.

Walks out on rooms, not weddings.

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

really.

Don't worry about it.

Right, we've got a poison cup, a punch to the face, a $40 million deal and a

random international phone number which Felix is still trying to track down.

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

I'll keep it covered in the fridge. They really are brilliant.

Looks like a shakedown to me.

No, they contain omega -3 and turmeric to reduce inflammation and activated

charcoal which absorbs toxins in the body.

It's brilliant stuff.

Sure, you know, the taste is a little robust, but that's the sacrifice you

for top performance. Do you want to... No, thanks.

Okay, so poison chick.

How?

You don't know.

Have you got anything else? Yes.

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

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

These people living their lives online. It's a sickness.

Actually, Jade did a full digital detox earlier this year. Oh, what? She left

her phone in the car for 20 minutes?

No. Took a couple of months off. Went to Thailand.

No phone.

No anything. So how did you know about it?

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

fantastic.

Yes? Hello?

Um... Hi, my name is Constable Felix Wilkinson. I'm a police officer in

Cove, Australia.

I'm investigating... Sorry, do you know the name Curtis Faliafa?

Oh, yes, I do wear trousers most days. Thank you for asking, but I just need

you... Dry cleaning, go on. I've got a two -for -one going on trousers.

I don't think he's heard of a Curtis Faliafa. OK, anyway...

There was one account that kept popping up, liking, responding to every single

one of Jade's posts. Whom?

Username was justintime.

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

I did some research, figured it out.

Oh, is that the... Yeah, Justine Cole. Yeah.

Cole, again.

Yeah, Keith Cole's daughter.

I didn't recognise her at first.

Let's go talk to her.

She passed away about six months ago.

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

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

Not from punching Curtis Baleafa.

He had a bruise under his left eye, so you're saying your hand, that's just a

coincidence? Okay.

Curtis and I fought.

Fine. About Justine?

I don't want to talk about her.

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

Justine was a JD.

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

stops.

And she died.

She was obsessed with supplements, the exercise, everything.

She was...

Studying, living in the city, we didn't get to see her that often.

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

She was so devoted to Jade, she didn't go and see a doctor, so she thought she

could fix herself.

Diet or whatever.

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

It's too late.

Jade killed my daughter.

There's no doubt in my mind.

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

I just thought it would get bigger and bigger.

More people would get sucked in.

Just like... Justine, I had to talk to Curtis. I had to get him to do

You're a parasite!

All more people are going to die.

Exactly. Well, he didn't do anything.

That would have made you angry.

I'm always angry.

I'll never stop being angry.

You put the poison cup down on the table, the cup that killed him. I didn't

it was poisoned. I was just... filling them up and putting them out as fast as

could. Look, I had nothing to do with this. I swear I was angry at Curtis, at

both of them.

I admit that.

But I would never kill anyone.

Well, more people are going to die.

That's what Curtis was getting at. If the sale goes through, more people will

die. But the sale is going through. Exactly.

And if you blame Jade for the death of your daughter, if you wanted to stop

Jade's company being sold globally, why not kill her?

Maybe he meant to. Then why not hand her the cup?

Maybe he tried.

Jade lied to us.

She said no one had any sort of grudge against... Against Curtis.

I know.

We should talk to her about that.

You can sleep.

Well, let's go then.

Why did you lie to us?

Excuse me?

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

no.

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

outside?

Sorry, I had no idea.

Curtis said an exercise band caught him in the eye.

Did you know what he and Curtis fell out about?

I assume, Justine, Keith has always believed, incorrectly, that we played a

in her death.

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

believed. I never said anything about my supplements curing me.

Oh, I watched the real Jade.

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

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

I had no control over what Justine did.

You didn't mind the boost in views she gave you, Paige, though?

I had to block her in the end.

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

We're going to have some more questions.

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

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

Oh, one more thing.

Do you know what this number could be?

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

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

Is it relevant?

Everything's relevant.

Jade McReady.

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

Yep. Looked like a new supplement in there.

That Jade was drinking.

Maybe she was trying it.

Okay.

Okay.

876 -591.

876 -591 -2489.

Eight, seven, six, five, six. Hello?

More people are going to die. Yeah?

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

Blood talks?

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

Your bag.

What's in it?

Nicotine. In liquid form. In enough quantity, it can induce a heart attack.

Nick, the manager.

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

He was at the drink station, we know that.

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

It's the same question every time.

When was the last time you ate? I, um, I don't know.

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

That was yesterday.

Was it?

Mackenzie, for someone so smart, how do you not understand that you need food to

live? I eat food.

Tournament of Minds, Brisbane, 2003.

Three days.

Not a cracker.

I'll see what's in the fridge.

Uh -huh.

I was fine, by the way. A tournament of mine.

You were hallucinating quadratic equations on the ceiling.

Which I solved, I might add.

Jade restore.

That's all there was.

Euthanasia, Liz Cole.

Honest keepers.

What?

Am I good?

You okay?

Do you have anywhere you need to be?

Why?

We've got some phone calls to make.

Hi, Mackenzie.

It's Curtis Valliarfa.

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

Or more people are going to die.

Or more people are going to die.

Curtis left that message on my phone a bit over an hour before he was one of

those people.

Poisoned.

Seemingly by a cup that he picked up at the drink station that was staffed by

Keith Cole.

There was one question that we couldn't answer.

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

Then we learned that the poison was nicotine.

What? Well, you had access to liquid nicotine, fate fluid.

You stood to lose your 10 % cut if Curtis killed the deal, $4 million.

And you were at the drink station filming.

Jade, give us a wave.

Hey!

Go, Jadies.

I didn't touch the cups.

The killer wanted us looking at the cups.

They wanted us spending all our time, all our energy, trying to figure out how

the killer could make sure that Curtis drank from the poison cup.

But the cup wasn't the murder weapon.

One of these was.

You handed him a drink from one of those.

On the start line.

Jay. But I drank from that.

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

Surely if the nicotine was in the bottle, then you would have been

well. And you were.

I'm fine.

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

You made sure you had one of your jade supplements before the race, and then

kept drinking them for 24 hours. Every time we saw you, you were drinking one.

Of course, they support my recovery.

Especially those that you've been mixing up yourself.

Detective Senior Constable Cartwright noticed that they were a slightly

difficult colour.

Looked like a new supplement there.

Loaded with?

Activated charcoal.

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

charcoal, which...

Absorbed toxins.

Including nicotine.

Especially if you drank enough of it. And boy, did you. I mean, you had a

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

And you kept up a steady intake.

And you planted a poisoned decoy cup before the race while you were looking

a location for Nick to film from to throw us off.

Why would I kill Curtis?

I loved him. He was about to reveal your secret.

Supplements didn't cure your cancer.

You had surgery and chemotherapy, Jade. What?

But you knew, gosh, if that got out, well, your company, it would be

So you kept it a secret, even from Curtis. But news of the deal leaked,

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

And that sent Curtis to you.

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

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

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

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

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

Because you knew it wasn't a phone number.

You knew it was a patient ID.

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

there in the end. The Greengrass Institute for Cancer.

This is ridiculous.

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

My whole life is spent online.

What about your digital detox?

I was in Thailand.

You didn't have a passport.

Jade McReady.

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

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

From everyone?

You had to. Because no one believed in Jade more than him. And chemotherapy

is the only thing that fits.

Right down to you being able to drink those incredibly strong tasting

supplements.

Chemotherapy, it killed your sense of taste, Jade.

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

I've got the file right here.

What's the name of that patient, Felix?

I never meant to lie.

I promise.

The supplements really did help at the start.

I was improving.

My followers went through the roof. I had so much support. It was just like

I was sick at school.

And then I went downhill.

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

many people were relying on me. I just, I couldn't let anyone stop it.

Not even Curtis?

Oh.

Look, I really did love him.

Ted McCready, you are under arrest for the murder of Curtis Vallioppa.

You're not obligated to say or do anything in relation to this.

Activated charcoal.

Has to be said.

Incredible stuff. No more cramps.

And I went hard this morning.

God, you are still drinking those things.

They're still good.

Mackenzie, want to walk out with me?

There it is.

Can you stop leaving your water bottle on my desk? What? Please.

That was good work with the phone numbers.

Thank you.

Both of you.

Well, I mean, it was 150 dead ends.

Wasn't a bit of a waste of time, no?

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

That's solid police work.

But made the case.

I made the case.

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

Me?

I made the case.

You're a very good detective, Mackenzie. I mean, I'm not telling you anything

you don't already know.

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

And that makes you very good at your job.

But you're not the only one.

I'm very proud of the team that I've got here. They're smart, they work hard,

they look after each other.

Just don't be a pain, Mackenzie.

Left my son. You left a mess.

But you also walked out on this station. You walked out on me.

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

I do.

Why?

Because she's a murderer, mate. So stop buying her stuff.

I'm off.

See you all in the morning. See ya.

Up too much tonight?

Every time. Seriously.

Just walks off. Not a word.

Come on.

Where? I am shouting you a smoothie.

Why? The thing people do when they work together.

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

All right, then.

Take your pick. Any smoothie you want.

Uh, Very Berry, please.

Good choice.

Doesn't look like much.

Trust me.

You're not staying?

Not really a smoothie person.

Very Berry, coming up.

Pink bike.

Missing front wheel.

The Victor, the spoiled.

That was the bat, wasn't it?

Yeah. Direct from Franco's Fish and Chips.

Oh. You can have it.

It's fresh out of the oil.

Which, if I'm honest, maybe hasn't been changed since the last year.

Still.

You could have told me about Daisy, you know.

I know.

She's brilliant.

She's perfect for you.

Yeah.

Yeah, she is.

We always work better as friends, anyway.

Did we?

Yeah. Yep.

Mm -hm.

Much clearer that way. We work together, get along fine.

Happy days.

Enjoy that.

See you tomorrow.

I'll be wearing pink pyjamas once you call.
