RHINEHEART:
The auctioneers are coming

to collect "The Tell-Tale Heart"
tomorrow

whether you like it or not.

Not if I have anything to do
with it, they won't.

McGORRIE: I don't even own
a baseball bat.

Step out of the car,
please, sir.

I-I have to be somewhere.

DURRELL: Someone beat Henry up
last night

and stole the manuscript.

Damn police.

But I'm more interested
in what the thief left behind --

a solitary black feather
just like the one

in Mum's safe deposit box.

JANE:
What if The Raven is back?

We've got to get down there.

FOSTER: There's something wrong
with your Aunt Jane.

Everyone be quiet.

[ Watch ticking ]

I knew something wasn't right.

Why are your aunts here, Stone?

Aunt Jane was the one
who found the body.

Of course she did.

KAREN: I should've said
something earlier.

I killed Professor Rhineheart.

She's lying.

Because I killed
Professor Rhineheart.

- MATILDA: Dr. Lynch.
- DR. LYNCH: Matilda.

What can you tell me
about the head wound?

I'd say the victim
almost certainly fell backwards

onto the corner
of the display case.

MATILDA:
So they are both lying.

Yes, I've got the proof.
It's gonna cost you.

You need to speak
to Sally Capstan.

she interned
for Professor Rhineheart.

There was a time
in Matilda's life

when the harsh reality
of attending the local mortuary

was offset by the excitement
of seeing local GP

and pathologist
Dr. Daniel Lynch.

Sadly, that time had passed.

Reynolds?

Stone!

Sorry, yes.

She said the name twice
before she died.

PC Foster is compiling
a list of anyone

with that name
who lives nearby.

Dr. Lynch, cause of death?

By the skin pallor and traces
of dried saliva

in the corners of the mouth,
I'd say she was poisoned.

I'll know more after the PM.

we need to stop them
before they strike again.

Reynolds.

I know, it means
nothing to me either.

I had a one-night stand
with a drummer of that band

we saw at the rec that time.

Weren't they called Reynolds?

Raymonds.

And she was the lead guitarist,
not the drummer.

And it was a fight,
not a one-night stand.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, God, I loved the '80s.

Oh, I meant to ask.

Who did you sell my Brian Flynn
first edition to?

Your what?

"The Mystery
of the Peacock's Eye."

It's been on display for weeks.

CAT: I didn't sell it.

Maybe I moved it.

Oh, I don't know.
I'll find it later.

Hello, I've come to pick up
a returns package.

- Hi, Henry.
- You're keeping yourself busy.

I do a bit of delivery work
on the side.

Mm, but it's not your only
other job, though, is it?

I mean, from what I discovered
yesterday, you have three.

Don't know what you mean.

Right.
Come on, Henry.

We know you're sleeping
on the job.

Spill the beans.

HENRY: Thanks.

Alison run off with
another man about a year ago.

It's been tough, you know,
especially for the girls

growing up without a mum,
and it wasn't made any easier

with all the debt
she left behind.

- So you took on extra work.
- Yeah.

Except that still wasn't enough,
so I took on a third job

and I used the shift
at the Heritage House to sleep.

All worked like a charm
until the other night.

[ Alarm rings ]

As soon as I woke up,
I knew something was wrong.

I knew if word got out that
I was sleeping on the job,

I'd get fired.

So I made it look like

I caught the intruders
in the act

and that they tied me up.

[ Muffled shout ]

I never meant
to knock myself out.

That was an accident.
I was desperate.

If I lose the job,
I lose the house.

[ Yawns ]

And while it was only a robbery,

I thought the insurance company
could take the hit.

Except it wasn't just a robbery.

By the time I learned that,

I couldn't come clean without
getting into more trouble.

Right, you need to go to
the station and ask for Matilda.

Tell her everything
you've just told us

and pray that Inspector Thorne
doesn't want to charge you

with perverting
the course of justice.

I will. I promise.

Although yawning is said
to be contagious,

Jane Stone couldn't help
but wonder

if her and Henry's recent
bouts of oscitation

weren't somehow connected.

I do hope Matilda and Inspector
Thorne go easy on Henry.

Me too.

It can't be easy raising
those children on his own.

Oh, I'm so sorry, I wasn't
looking where I was going.

Why?
Where are you going?

Meddling.

But Matilda told us not to.

The dictionary defines meddling
as interfering in something

that is not one's concern.

But, thought Jane Stone,

if the activity
was directly connected

to why she kept yawning...

Then I wouldn't
technically be meddling.

Microfiche records?

Of the local paper.

I've been to
The Wildemarsh Watchmen

missing when they moved offices.

They said you'd have copies
on something called microfiche.

It's funny, no one's asked me

No, sorry.

I want a word with you.

Well, that will have to wait.

We have the test results
for the coffee.

What coffee?

The other day, I borrowed some
coffee from the security office.

I'm sorry, Henry.
I should have asked first.

I've been really tired
ever since.

When I saw that Henry
keeps yawning, too,

I couldn't help but think
there might be a connection.

I ran some tests on the coffee
and found it was laced

with two different types
of sedative.

So whoever stole the manuscript
wanted to make sure

that Henry was out cold
before they broke in.

No wonder you fell asleep,
Henry.

Still doesn't excuse me lying
about the break-in.

ROBIN: No, but given
your circumstances,

this may be understandable.

Does that mean
I'll get to keep my job?

That depends on whether Sergeant
Stone wants to press charges.

Considering Henry's home situation,

Inspector Thorne and I
have agreed

to let him off
with a caution.

Then it's decided.

If you'd excuse us, Sergeant,
I would like to show Henry

my plans for a new
security system.

Has anyone seen
Victoria Durrell?

Oh, yes, I just saw her
heading home.

Matty, I found out something
about Oliver McGorrie.

Right, that's it, I want a word
with all three of you now.

And, Aunt Jane, there had better
be a blooming good reason

why I found your brooch
at the exact spot

important evidence was stolen.

I didn't even realize
I'd lost it.

Actually, Matilda,
I did need to talk to you

about Sally Capstan's
postmortem results.

Why don't we wait for you
by the gates?

Yeah, give you a chance
to cool your jets.

Make it quick.

I don't think I have ever
seen Matilda so angry.

Well I'm not hanging around here
to get bawled out by my niece.

I'm off to find
Victoria Durrell.

I'll come with you.

No, wait, I need your help
tailing Oliver McGorrie.

I caught him searching
Sally Capstan's locker.

I wonder what for.

Don't know.
We need to find out.

Sally Capstan was poisoned
with a lethal dose of camphor.

Camphor?

It's used as an embalming fluid.

There'd be a plentiful
supply on-site

for preserving artifacts.

Did Professor Rhineheart catch
you stealing the manuscript?

Is that why you killed him?

I didn't kill anybody.

So, you're denying you stole
the manuscript?

Alright, yes,
I stole the manuscript.

But I stole it five years ago.

I replaced the original
manuscript with a facsimile.

Whoever broke into
Heritage House

stole the forgery.

[ Door closes ]

So...

For all his so-called expertise,

Professor Rhineheart
never noticed

the manuscript was a fake.

But I knew the auctioneers

would spot it
as soon as they picked it up.

Which was the real reason
you were so desperate

to prevent the sale.

When my petition didn't work,

I knew I had to put
the real manuscript back.

I thought if I got in
extra early,

I could make the swap
without anyone noticing.

Except by then,
it had been stolen.

I can't tell you
how relieved I was.

Heritage House would get
the insurance money,

the thief got what he deserved,
and best of all,

I got to keep
the original manuscript.

Until I insisted
on a stock take.

I've been panicking ever since
I'd be found out.

I'm sorry for what I did,
but I can't help myself.

Will I go to prison?

Forgery, theft,
obstruction of justice...

♪

Come clean or I'm arresting you

for perverting
the course of justice.

You're a former police officer

who investigates
the theft of rare books

for an antiques recovery agency.

I've just come off the phone
with your employer.

I lied when I said I was
a retired civil servant.

The disguise,
the whole clumsy thing,

it was so people
wouldn't suspect who I was.

I wanted to tell you,
but I was determined

to be the one to catch
Professor Rhineheart.

Professor Rhineheart?

In recent years, there's been
a number of rare book thefts

from famous libraries
and museums.

All looked like inside jobs,

but no one individual worked
at all the sites.

The link had to be someone
that made regular visits

to each of the locations.

Like a famous professor
researching his new book.

McGORRIE: Precisely.

When I heard he was visiting
Wildemarsh,

I knew he was planning on
stealing "The Tell-Tale Heart."

So you volunteered to work
at Heritage House

in the hope of
catching him in the act.

Yes, that was the plan, except
he must've sussed out who I was.

I'm certain Rhineheart planted
the baseball bat in my car,

then made a false call
to the police.

The period that I was detained
in custody

was all the time he needed
to steal the manuscript,

make his getaway.

But Professor Rhineheart
didn't get away.

He was murdered.

I figured by his accomplice.

See, my theory is that
Rhineheart targeted sites

where he knew someone
who could help him.

Sally Capstan.

As I see it,
Sally killed Rhineheart

and then took off
with the manuscript.

See, I made it my mission to
find out where she'd hidden it,

but first I had to delay
your investigation

and get those nosey aunts
of yours out of the way.

Which is why you stole
my aunt Jane's brooch.

McGORRIE: I saw Sally ask
Victoria for help

with the microfiche.

After she was killed,
I knew you'd follow up

on her movements.

So I planted your aunt's brooch
where I knew you'd find it.

And I was hoping to get
your aunts to back off.

You clearly don't know my aunts.

But if Sally killed Professor
Rhineheart, who killed her?

That's what I haven't been
able to figure out,

but it has to have something
to do with the robbery somehow.

What if Sally didn't kill
the professor?

What if there were two robberies
that night?

It would explain why
Henry's coffee

was laced with two different
kinds of sleeping draught --

both sets of thieves trying to
ensure he was asleep on the job.

Professor Rhineheart
and Sally Capstan

could've tried
stealing the manuscript

but ran into someone else
doing the same thing.

Be ironic if it was true.

Professor Rhineheart,
Sally Capstan -- both writers,

both dead trying to steal
an old book.

Authors of their own demise,
literally.

What?

Which of you killed
Professor Rhineheart?

Does it matter?

It was an accident.

You should have told us

You were convicted
of first-degree murder.

It was self-defense.

It wasn't like that with Rob.

He saw me for who I really was.

And when I got out,

he was the only one
who'd give me a second chance.

It wasn't difficult
to fall in love with him.

When did you know
the manuscript was a forgery?

Not until a few days ago.

I was cleaning

as Professor Rhineheart
was studying the manuscript.

He left the room, and I couldn't
resist taking a closer look.

I'm not an expert.

I shared a cell with a forger,

and she taught me enough to know
I was looking at a fake.

I knew the auctioneers would
spot it straightaway

and they would cancel the sale.

We couldn't let that happen.

Heritage House needed the money
from the auction to stay open.

So you decided to drug
Henry's coffee

to ensure the coast was clear,
steal the manuscript,

and use the insurance money
to save Heritage House.

All we needed to do
was leave a few false leads

to make it look like
The Raven was back.

Which is why I found
Robin Brunswick's name on a list

of people who'd accessed
the stolen microfiche files.

He was researching The Raven
for what clues to leave.

We'd just finished
setting everything up

then Professor Rhineheart
turned up.

Rhineheart went mad.

but I knew from experience
that if the truth came out,

we were both going to prison.

So we hid Rhineheart
in the grandfather clock

and agreed to come back
the following night

to dispose of him.

Except in the meantime,
my Aunt Jane found the body.

I knew you would eventually find
my criminal record

and I'd fall under suspicion,

which is why we had to confess.

A double double bluff.

You each gave false confessions,

neither of which matched with
how Rhineheart really died,

so as to place yourselves
above suspicion.

- It's Foster.
- That's what I said.

Terry?

♪

FOSTER: This is an anonymous
poem I found called "Raven."

Rank rebel raven,

all colored as a coal,

oh, crow untrue.

Flaps he into flight,
fanning on the wind.

High is he upon his heart
to hearken tidings.

Croaks he for comfort,
for carrion he finds,

cast upon the cliffs
where rotting corpses lay.

[ Foster's voice fades ]

Inspector Thorne.

[ Foster's voice fades in ]

Filling full his belly,
full soon slips yesterday,

strife and storm,
forgotten his captain's charges.

MATILDA: Mrs. Bryant?

FOSTER: Left in the coffer,
the raven wrecking forth.

MATILDA: Mrs. Bryant!

[ Gasps ]

Matilda, is everything alright?

- Yeah.
- You sure?

-[ Applause in distance ]
- Yeah, everything's fine.

♪

It is a central tenet of any
detective's investigation

that a single lie discovered

is enough to create doubt
in every truth expressed.

What else, wondered Matilda,

had Inspector Thorne
lied about?

And more importantly, why?

GEORGE: [ Distantly ]
It's that sometimes,

you find the right person,
you just...

know, don't you?

Sorry, what were you saying?

I said you just know.

And while Matilda's mind raced
with a thousand questions

for Inspector Thorne...

Thanks for opening up late,
Harry.

My pleasure, Ms. Stone.

...her aunts were doing
everything in their power

to ensure the answer
to the one question

that had haunted Matilda since
childhood remained a mystery.

♪

If Matilda ever finds out...

We have to pray she doesn't.

Prayers were also in
Dr. Daniel Lynch's thoughts

as he raced to declare
his undying love for Matilda --

prayers Matilda would see past
his foolish engagement

to Natasha.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Prayers that in this instance
were not to be answered.

So, as George seized the day,
others in Matilda's orbit

were left to contemplate life's
many missed opportunities.

♪

The opportunity
to have grasped love

while it was still in reach.

♪

Or conversely,
to have stopped love

slipping through your fingers.

♪

To have admitted past mistakes

before those mistakes
were exposed.

♪

Or to have confessed
to the truth

before being forced
down a path of lies.

Opportunities that,
once missed,

may never present
themselves again.

At least,
not without intervention

from a very unexpected
quarter.
