Man on radio: Charlie
One to 912 rescue.

We've identified a
heat signature, over.

Charlie One, what's
your location? Over.

Our current position is 51
degrees, 31 minutes north,

zero degrees, 51
minutes west. Over.

That's Bryce Farm.

All right, let's
go. Reece, come on.

This way, this way.

It is something. Right.
She's definitely in there.

There's a heartbeat. Reece.

Hello, lovely girl.

You've had your
family worried sick.

There. You got her?

Charlie One, 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?

That's up to you.
It's your award.

- Are you coming to this lunch?
- I don't think so.

Oh, go on. Daniella's
waitressing.

I help him find the dogs,

I'm not going to sit
there bigging him up.

All
right. It's okay.

Hello! Kitty, kitty, kitties!
Kitty, kitty, kitties!

Mummy's home. Hello!

Oh, look at you.

Are you greeting party?
A little greeting party.

Aren't you lovely?
Hey, darling.

Ooh.

Look what mummy's
bought for you, hmm?

Ooh.

There you go.

Don't you look handsome?

Hmm?

Okay, Frank. That's
great. Nice smile, Frank.

Yeah. Just chin
up a little bit.

Yeah. Perfect.
Great. Yeah. Lovely.

Are you serious?
I am so sorry.

This is brand new.

I really am sorry. I tripped.

It runs in the family.

What? Being clumsy.

Are you talking
about my brother?

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

You meant Edison.
His accident.

Come on, sweetheart.
Just... Just calm...

No, Mum. Why are
you defending him?

I'm not defending
him. No, you are.

Okay, Daniella, go and
get some fresh air.

Oh, I'm really sorry about that.

It's fine. Let me
help you with that.

I said, I'm fine. Thank you.

Daniella. I said, go outside.

You okay?

Not really.

Madeline: So sorry.
Can I... Can I help?

Excuse me, but I just need to...

No, it's ruined.
Sure. Yeah. Thank you.

I'm really, really sorry.
Sh-She didn't mean it.

It was an accident.

Paddy! Paddy.

Look, through the
tunnel. Through!

Paddy. Through the tunnel.

Such authority.

Paddy's determined to enter.

Dog agility competition?

Well, it's 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.

Oh, forensics
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...

hygiene.

No luck on that stain?

What? Yeah. Uh, no.

H-Has Frank not come back yet?

No. Should someone check
the gents? He's been...

Tai!

Tai, what's happened?

Sir. Frank Bailey, 47.

Private investigator,

specializes in
missing pet cases.

A pet detective? Mm.
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.

I've 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.

There would drag
marks 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?

Yes. Mainly camera equipment.

Well, find out what's on there.

- Who found him?
- Tai Yang over there.

He's a delivery rider
who spotted the body

when he came to
collect a lunch order.

He's also the victim's nephew.

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

Apparently, Frank had
an altercation with her.

Really? Uh-huh.

They've both given DNA samples

and agreed to be interviewed
at Daniella's home.

Okay. You said the
victim had a wife.

I told him it would
end like this.

Those people who steal
dogs are dangerous.

Do 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 owned
this restaurant have

a Czechoslovakian
Wolfdog, Storm.

She's been missing
for four days.

Frank was working the case.

Did he have any leads?

Sorry, I... I wasn't
trying to be funny.

Uh, 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 offense, but the police

would have done more for
a stolen mobile phone.

- 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...

a feud with our next door
neighbor, 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.
It was nothing.

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

but 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?

So he 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 okay.

You didn't see or
hear anything unusual?

No, we were short-staffed.

We were both dashing around.

You ran this place together?

It feels like it sometimes,

but this is Eshani's 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 bushes.

She ran towards it, and
the next thing I knew,

she was gone.

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

That's why I agreed
to use Frank.

It was awkward, obviously.

Kim wasn't happy,

but under the circumstances...

Sorry. Um...

I assumed somebody'd
already told you.

I'm Frank's ex-wife.

W-We weren't even close.

It's... It's just
the shock of it.

I... I thought he was still
alive, so I tried to help him,

but...

He was still warm.

Had your uncle fallen
out with anyone?

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

like a lot, accusing her of
cheating and stuff, but...

I think that was
just their thing.

I moved out in the end.

So you used to live with Frank?

Only for a month.

I moved to Midsomer
to be with Daniella.

Then the neighbor let
me rent his caravan.

William Fleming. Yeah.

Did Kim tell you about
the dog poo wars?

I heard there was a feud.

It was about dog excrement?

Williams got this
really nice garden.

He's obsessed with it.
But he's going nuts

because Frank's dogs
keep getting in.

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

We're friends with
his grandson, 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 for his
table, but things got kind of...

Um, Madeline Saunders. Hi.

I'm Daniella's mum.
I'm sorry to interrupt,

but I was there when
she got a bit upset.

It was a misunderstanding.

He 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,
a place at medical school.

'Cause there's never been a
killer with good A-levels.

Daniella.

I'm not going to med school.

Not this year, anyway.

I would like to hear from
Daniella 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 cliffs,

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 parasols.

I had my music on.

Daniella, this is
the time to speak up.

If you were upset,

if the argument
carried on outside.

My daughter is not a
liar. I am actually.

Sometimes.

But not about this.

Eshani 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?

No. Nothing to imply
that he was lured.

But he did have his satnav open,
and he'd entered this address.

That's here. Mm.

Why would he be going to
Madeline Saunders' house

when Madeline and Daniella
were both at the restaurant?

Should we go back
in and ask them?

No. Let's do some
more digging first.

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

and ask forensics to
give the once over

to any knives
they do have. Sir.

He was talking to
me! I didn't butt in.

I just wanted him to
know what was going on.

Well, he didn't need to know.

Girl: Dad? Dad,
can you help me?

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

Mm. Another beer?

Oh, please.

Is this, um, dog agility
thing that Betty saw

run by Madeline Saunders?

Yeah, she's the woman we use
for Paddy's obedience classes.

The one who made you cry?

They were tears of
pure frustration.

He's a delinquent.

Well, just be extra
careful on walks, okay?

There have been a
few dognapping cases.

Really? Round here?

Yes. So you stay
close, all right.

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

Oh, what's this?

We can do this.

No, Toronto. 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 Tai he could stay over.

You know the rules.

It's okay.

Was Daniella having a listen?

Uh, yeah. Do you want to...

Anytime.

You know that.

There he is.

Well done, Yarra. Well done.

Right. So if you
could all pick

a piece of equipment,
and then...

Well, off you go.

Madeline. 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.

Storm was stolen.

Had nothing to do
with her recall.

I'm sorry, Eshani,

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

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

Come on.

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
was no evidence.

There's a lot on this
neighbor feud, though.

Frank and Mr. Fleming
accusing each other of theft,

trespass, criminal damage,
dangerous dog offenses.

In the end, 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.

Or just if you need a chat.

Oh. I-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.

Wow. That's extraordinarily
patronizing.

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?

Mm-hmm. I'd have put money
on you being team dog.

Hmm. I get that.

Dogs are loyal, enthusiastic,
good companions.

But studies suggest that cat
people are more intelligent.

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

They get in over there
and cause mayhem.

But when I complained,
well, it was all out war.

He even trained
his dogs to sh...

do their business on my lawn.

It went to arbitration, right?

Well, Frank had to
pay £500 compensation.

Oh, well, 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 2:00 PM?

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 center.

Green fingers runs
in the family?

No, just looking for a way of
getting out of the rat race.

So we've got the business,
and we do holiday lets

with the caravan
and the narrow boat.

Which Frank complained
about. Reece Fleming, right?

Your name came up
in a list of people

that volunteered with Frank.

Yeah, yeah, but only
'cause her mum made me.

I work for Madeline
with the dog training,

so she got me to sign
up, despite Frank.

Not a fan?

He was bullying
an old man, so...

I'm not going pretend it was
nice just because he's dead.

Sorry, Tai, but I'm not.

Kim: We've logged any
reported sightings,

but it's been five days now.

I think she's been sold on.

There were some photos
on Frank's phone

of this woman.

That's Lorna McIntosh.

Frank was investigating
her for a cat seduction.

Cat seduction?

Enticing other people's
cats into her home

and keeping them there.
It's theft, essentially.

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

John: 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 neighbor said the post
still arrives for him,

but nobody's ever seen him.

Right.

Yeah, it looks like Frank put
Madeline Saunders' address

into his satnav
yesterday 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 behavior.

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 his 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
lawyers 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
Eshani. I got over it.

Because she's his ex-wife.

He was to 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, Tai,

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 Tai,

and did I mind? I said
"No, of course not."

But I thought we were talking
about a-a flat deposit

or something. Not half.

It 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 Tai killed his
uncle in order to inherit?

I mean,
I c... I can't...

I can't think like that.

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

Tai Yang is 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"?

Oh, tell them no
comment for now.

No, no, no. She said
that she received

an anonymous letter last week

telling her to look into
nondisclosure agreements

at Frank's old software company.

He was issuing
gagging orders. Why?

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?

Coming.

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.

Daniella: Are you there now?

Yeah, I'm on my way.

DCI Barnaby.

We've already spoken
to the police.

Is Tai still here?

Down there. Why?

I need a quick word.

Are you okay?

Hay fever.

Sorry. Where?

Half? As in half
of everything?

On your 21st birthday.

That'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.
'Cause 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'd get
something, but not half.

No, no.

Stay there, stay there.

Charlie. Charlie. You stay.

Good. Good Charlie.

Sorry.

Uh, 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 cats.

Hmm. How many do
you have here?

Oh, it varies.

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 pets back,

and you've refused.

Cats choose their people,
not the other way round.

But if I was made aware

that a family was
missing their animal,

I would reunite them.
That goes without saying.

Hmm. Uh...

Is this really a police matter?

Oh, potentially.

Where were you around
2:00 PM yesterday?

I was here, alone. Why?

Is this you?

Indeed it is.

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

A... A vulnerable woman

is exercising her
right to self-defense.

You're threatening
the photographer?

I-I was minding my own business

when suddenly there's a man
in the garden with a camera.

Hmm. 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 decided to
finish early today.

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

Are you okay, Eshani?

Right. We have to
go to the police.

No. Hold on. He says...

No, the police need
to see this right now.

Hello.

Yeah, the solicitor I spoke
to earlier, your colleague.

He said it takes a while for
the inheritance to come through,

but is there any way
I can get some now?

Like today.

Sir, I've just been to the spot

where Aden said that
Storm was stolen

and Father Hinton was there.

Yeah. He said that
he saw Frank and Aden

arguing by the cemetery
gates on Monday afternoon.

Now, he couldn't hear
what they were saying,

but he felt, from
their body language,

that it looked like Aden
was... 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.

Sarah: Paddy!

Betty: Paddy! Paddy!

Paddy! Paddy!

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
behavioral 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-I liked him.

But it was a bit tricky with
everything with William.

The neighbor 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 Reece over there.

He'd been on the transplant
list for over a year,

and then Edison's
heart saved him.

Reece has your son's heart?

Yeah. He extended the
lives of five people.

Reece 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 Reece
and his grandfather now?

The whole family.

They're the reason
we moved to Midsomer.

When the transplant
coordinators put us in contact,

we just felt right.

And what about your
daughter's boyfriend, Tai?

What do you know about him?

Enough to know she
deserves better.

Well, not... better. I
don't mean to sound...

It's just that she worked
so hard for those grades,

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

She'd be throwing it all away.

Do you think Daniella
was the only reason

he came to Midsomer?

Is there something I
need to know about Tai?

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.

She wants to use our
savings. Don't do that.

If it gets her back?

How do we even
know it's for real?

There's a chance that we can
trace where this came from.

But it says we have
to pay by tomorrow

if we want to see Storm again.

Leave it with us.

But in the meantime,
I did want a word.

Perhaps in private?

We don't have secrets.

Mm.

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 Eshani.

You what?

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

Because if he 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 10 years ago.

And 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.

It's okay.

Oh, sorry we're later
than last night.

Good night?

I've deleted the dating apps.

I'm going to get a pet.

Hang on. When I suggested
that you said it was...

Oh, Fleur thinks
it's a great idea.

And to test drive dog ownership,

I'm taking you for
a walk this week.

Walkies!

He'll come round.

He was found by William
Fleming just after 9:00 AM.

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 eight hours.

But with electrocution, the
violent muscle contractions

cause rigor to set in earlier,
so it could be closer to four.

Giving us between
2:00 AM and 6:00 AM.

Roughly.

I'll let you know
when I have more.

Go on, after you, sir.

Mind your head.

Okay. Uncle and nephew
killed two days apart,

both involving some sort
of pet paraphernalia.

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

We'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
Tai was innocent,

he turned up moments after
Frank had been stabbed,

and maybe he
witnessed something.

Hmm.

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 Tai to an intruder,

wake him up if he was asleep,

and then, surely,

he'd fight back to stop
the collar going on.

Hmm. Unless the door was
smashed after the event.

Which the killer
would only do if...

They wanted to disguise the
fact that Tai let them in.

Or that they had a set of keys.

How long had Tai been
renting the caravan from you?

Since Easter.

He said he wanted
to save some money.

He wanted to go traveling.
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, Reece.

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 heard 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.

Yeah.

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.

Kim: I mean, should I have
security or something?

It's like they're working
their way through the family.

We still don't know
why Tai 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
Tai using or dealing drugs?

No, not at all.

He was due to turn 21
in a couple of weeks,

but as he's died before
reaching that 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.

And when you say "us"...

Me and Reece. We were
having some beers.

She was home by 10:45.
Reece dropped her off.

Not that you're keeping tabs.

Daniella, did Tai
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 my best...

Oh, sweetheart. 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?

Tai... loved Daniella,

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

He gave her these
packets of white powder

to look after for him,

and luckily, I found them
and I flushed them away.

Those weren't Tai's.
They were mine.

He just took the blame
when you found them.

Daniella! She's upset.

If anyone was a bad
influence, it was me.

They were my drugs.

Think about what you're saying.

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 escalated.

You think she snapped?

She grabs a knife on the
way out of the kitchen,

follows Frank out, and then
Tai turns up and witnesses it.

He covers up for
her to begin with,

but then maybe Daniella
and Tai, they fall out.

He's going to talk. It's
a credible scenario.

Let's see
if Reece 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 orders at 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.

The 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 he
forgot to mention that.

Look who the second litigant is.

"The future of
digital encryption.

Professor Lorna McIntosh."
That's our cat lady.

So she isn't married
to Professor McIntosh.

She is professor McIntosh.

Yeah, I worked for him.

A 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 me colleagues.

Constant homophobic remarks,
banter, as he called it.

So you were suing for
constructive dismissal?

I wanted to.

But Reece was waiting
for his heart transplant,

and things with my ex, Noah,

well, 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?

Well, 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, but...

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 complaints 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
nondisclosure agreements.

How many people
knew about those?

William: I did.

Bah, it 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 it.

I'm glad he's dead.

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

Lorna: It was another life.

Can you put it away, please?

I looked you up online.

You developed
encryption software,

lectured on cyber security.

But then you left academia to
help Frank launch his company.

What... What did you
do for him, exactly?

Come here, bunny. Do
you want a cuddle?

Yes? Is it time for a cuddle?

Hmm? Professor McIntosh?

I wrote encryption algorithms
for identity verification.

Uh, 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 loved 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 was 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... but everything
with Frank left me...

I don't know.

I've been struggling.

With people.

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?

You... You deliberately
withheld information.

Are you? Oh, you're beautiful.

Oh, you're my little beauty.

I can't get a hold of
Reece 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 uncle's death.

And there's something
about Aden's encounter

with Frank in the cemetery,
something he wasn't saying.

See what you can dig up on him.

Hmm.

How does that link into Tai?

I don't know.

There are other possibilities.
Frank's wife, for one.

We know that she was
contemplating divorce.

And the fact that
Tai 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 Daniella, 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,
Daniella is killing

in a fit of rage. She
hasn't planned it.

She hasn't taken steps
to cover her clothes.

So why wasn't she
soaked in blood?

Hmm. Her mother
then? Premeditated.

Perhaps Frank was right

that she was stealing
her clients' dogs,

and she knew that
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.

His software company?

Perry Fleming and Lorna McIntosh

both have a long
history with him,

and both of them lied about it.

Fleur: My initial
assessment was correct.

Ventricular fibrillation
leading to cardiac arrest

caused by electrocution.

Not even 21.

He was saving up
to go traveling.

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 turn 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
dog thing, actually.

That was possibly
the wine talking.

But I promised him you'd
do it. He'll be crushed.

And on the subject of
overenthusiastic mutts.

Sorry I'm late. I
know that you asked me

to do a full 360 on Aden Hughes.

What have you got?

I... I spoke to HR at
the mortgage broker

where he said that he works,

and apparently 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 Aden this week.

Frank called on Monday,
asking the same questions.

What did she tell him?

She wouldn't give
him any detail,

but Frank obviously knew
something about Aden

because he was doing his
own investigation into him.

I was clean for about 10 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,

wave good-bye, 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,

"If the father of Eshani's
kids was using drugs,

then she had a right to know."

He gave me till the end
of the week to tell them.

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. I...

Did Tai know that
you were using, too?

All the delivery riders used
the cemetery as a shortcut.

Did he see you? Blackmail you?

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 Dani.

Daniella Saunders? Where?

We were round the side of
the restaurant, had a smoke.

I asked her not to
tell you because, um...

Because you were
buying drugs off her!

Perry! Sorry.

I probably should have
called or something.

Of course not. Don't
worry. Come in.

Fleur:

Good boy, Paddy. Oh!

Good boy,
Paddy. Good boy.

Uh, no, no, no.

Give it to me. That's it.

Now fetch!

Paddy.

Paddy!

Hello?

Who's there?

Paddy!

Paddy!

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

Well, 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. I found this though.

They must have taken it off
to crawl into the bushes,

then decided
running away from me

was more important
than going back for it.

If I was being chased by you,

I'd definitely
prioritize getting away.

Mm.

Collar. Muzzle. Treats.

It's a dog catching
kit, isn't it?

That's what I thought.

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

Hmm.

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 dogs 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 hide, wouldn't it?

If she stays in one place,

the noise would
attract attention.

Yeah, but if they
kept her moving.

Then she's never in one
place long enough for it

to be an issue.

She's being kept on a boat.

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

when I was around Wednesday,
and yesterday it was gone.

Shall we?

Okay, Dad?

I thought you might
like a bit of company.

Anything need doing?

Oh, 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. Are you?

It was 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 owners.

No, you don't. You saw an
easy way to make money,

so you stole a member
of someone's family.

I needed to help a friend.

Sh... Th-They owe
money to people

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

Daniella? We know
about the drugs.

She just sort of spiraled
after exams finished.

Like, once that focus was gone,

everything with
her brother just...

Grief.

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

And now she owes
money to someone?

This kid from school. H-His
older brother sells pills,

and he said that she
could have 'em for free

if she held on to a
package for him, only...

Only Madeline found the drugs,

thought they were Tai's,
and flushed them away.

Yeah.

Yeah. S-So...

So he said that she
had to pay him back.

But it was so much.
Like, Tai 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 ask
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 Daniella I was getting
the money from my dad.

Where did you learn to use
such sophisticated encryption?

What?

The ransom note. Tech
team were impressed.

You used some kind
of dark web proxy.

What... I-I didn't
send a ransom note.

Honestly, that wasn't me.

I'm not going to pretend to
know what a Tor 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.

Why did you do it then?

After everything with Frank,
I wanted to get back to work,

but I...

I get very anxious now.

It's all got a... a
bit out of control.

I-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.

Go on.

Thank you so much.

- Eshani 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. Eshani 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.

Come, come on.

John: 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 you leave?

2:45. Well, look at this.

It operates on a timer,

and it's set to dispense
dry cat food at 3:00 PM.

So those crumbs on her hand...

She was dead on the floor
by the time it went off.

Her cats ate the food off her.

Lovely.

But it does at least
pinpoint 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.

Hmm. Killed
through the window.

Which might tell us
something psychologically.

They're trying to
keep their distance?

Potentially, which is
a... a shift in mind-set.

Frank and Tai were both
killed at very close quarters.

So what was special about Lorna?

Maybe her murder is not
connected to the others.

A dog kennel, a training collar,

and then a dog snare is
too much of a coincidence.

Okay, but Lorna doesn't
have any connection to Tai

that we know of.

She didn't have any connection
to anyone quite deliberately.

There was one
visitor, though, sir.

Neighbor said that Lorna
let 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...

Reece, 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.

Is 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 3:00 PM today?

You think I'm involved in this?

Help us out. Where were you?

On dad's boat.

When Reece phoned
us from the station,

told us what he'd been doing,

he said the dog had
caused some damage.

I've got someone renting
it from tomorrow,

so I thought I'd go
and do some 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 for Tai's.

And the only person with a
clear connection to Lorna.

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

- Hmm.
- Fleur.

Hi. The blood under
Tai'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.

And we've just let
him drive away.

That's his truck.

Perry?

Perry, we need you 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 Tai fought back,

when you put that
collar around his neck,

he scratched you. No.

Someone's made a mistake.

Then show me your arms.

I didn't want to hurt Tai.

Or Lorna. It was only
ever about Frank.

So this was revenge for
what he did to you at 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 Tai saw you?

He saw the blood on my clothes.

I promised him cash,

but then he was getting
that inheritance.

He didn't need my money anymore.

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 up again.

And I 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 Reece.

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...

Sorry.

Do your family know?

Nobody does.

Reece's heart transplant's
not going to last.

He's going to need another one.

And 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...

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

rescue people from
mountains, sniff out disease.

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

- Sir.
- Did you see what he just did?

Perry's alibi for Lorna's
murder checks out.

He was on his boat.

The pub's CCTV, it points
straight across there.

You can see his boat
and that he was on it.

Well, 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.

Reece was in our custody
suite and William was there

to collect him. Who else
would Perry lie for then?

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,

Reece wouldn't be here.

But why would Madeline
want to kill Lorna?

And how does that connect to
Perry killing Tai and Frank?

I mean, we do still think
that it's Perry, right?

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

Why would...

Paddy!

Madeline told me that her
dog could sniff out cancer.

Perry said no one knows
about his diagnosis.

But what if Madeline did know

and used that knowledge
to her advantage?

U-Used it how?

What if Madeline is the one
with the motive, not Perry,

and she persuaded
him to kill for her?

But why would Madeline
want to kill Frank?

I don't think she did. But
she hated Tai, didn't she?

She tried everything to keep
him away from her daughter.

And Tai 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 Tai was
the target all along?

It was just a case
of mistaken identity?

Wrong time, wrong place.

It's possible. Hmm.

Tell Sarah we'll be back.

Woman: Oh.

Sir, 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 Tai.

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.

Daniella's not
here.

I wanted to speak to you.

Oh, right. Oh, sorry.

Charlie, away.

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?

Don't 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 Reece.

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 Tai to disappear.

And you asked Perry
to make that happen.

When I found the...

drugs in Daniella's bag...

I had to do something.

And...

And it is like...

it all fell into place.

Charlie had been behaving
strangely around Perry,

and I eventually persuaded
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 Reece
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 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.

I'm sorry.

All the planning
for Tai's murder,

luring him to the
restaurant, that was you?

I used to wait
behind the kitchens

to collect Daniella
after her shifts.

Hardly anyone used that area.

Just the takeaway drivers and...

the app, the delivery
app that Tai worked for.

You could see the
rider's name, but...

it went wrong.

Perry: It 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 Tai.

And 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 Tai'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.

Perry: 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 just

sheer 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.

I 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, but...

You were!

He was saving my
daughter's life.

The way Edison saved Reece.

Except Daniella
didn't need saving.

She did.

She'd worked so hard!

And she was just...

throwing it all away!

From the moment
that she met Tai,

her life went off the rails.

You mean, it went in
the direction she chose.

You do not know what
you're talking about.

She's my daughter.

Exactly.

She's your daughter,
not your pet.

You don't own her.

I realize 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.

Daniella: Mum?

What's going on?

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

At last. Thank you.

So, Fleur's on her way back.
She's just gone to get Lysander.

Lysander? 42,
supremely handsome.

And it's all happened
very quickly.

Here he is.

I did the postmortem
on his owner

and heard he needed a new home.

Now I see it.

It's like you've been missing
a parrot this whole time.

Birds are more my
thing than dogs.

More chat, less excrement.

Who's a pretty boy then?

Not you, nitwit.
Not you, nitwit.

See? My soul mate?

I think you've
finally found the one.

Yes. Here you are, darling.

Yeah. Yeah.
