Foxgloves!

Foxgloves are their favourite.

JACK: Good news from Velvy.

It's not a guess,
Detective Inspector.

He's started his master's
in Forensic Science.

Chip off the old block, eh?

I examined the body
and reviewed the notes.

Harriet Maven?

The colour of the skin was
cherry red. Oh, my God.

She's meant to be difficult.

Very hard to work
with, they say.

COHb concentrations were over 50%.
Come back, Gabriel - all is forgiven.

He skives off to
university, and we get her?

Not a good trade!
No, no, I'm certain.

She thinks she's coming out
of retirement to save us.

I mean, save us from what?

In what way did you think
I was speaking to you?

Dour. Humourless.

Her - not you.

The deceased died from
carbon monoxide poisoning.

Does this not worry you at all?

You're doing a great
job for us both.

Based on compelling evidence!

I HAVE put it in writing.

I love the way you say
"compelling evidence".

When I was six years old,

I was desperate to
learn to play the piano.

Didn't happen. A
great disappointment.

So, this year, I promised
myself that I would learn,

and I'm going to
keep that promise.

I'm trying to retire.

It's tricky, though, innit?

I mean, I've got two kids
living at home. 24 and 28.

My wife complains I
work all the time.

I told her to, you know, get
a boyfriend, and she did.

JACK: Sorry to hear that.
No, no, not like that.

No, he's an old guy, lives
down the end of our street.

He's 91. Still all there.

Goes and checks on him.

You know, they say
loneliness is a killer.

Has anyone touched
the body? Moved it?

No. Not since we've been here.

Have you been able
to identify her?

Nope. Not yet.

We're checking on a
missing person's report.

How long do you think she's
been dead? Best guess.

As you know, I try not to guess.

When I say "guess", I mean "in
your professional opinion".

The body is past active decay.

Difficult to pin it
down to a precise time.

The environment in the caves

will impact the rate
of decomposition.

JACK: Foxgloves?

NIKKI: Yes.

Foxgloves are in flower
June to September.

Hmm.

They were in flower.

Marking her homework?

You know, when you mark
homework with the best students,

you quite often learn something.

If you're open to
learning, that is.

Our world is not

But, of course, sometimes it is.

EERIE SYNTH ECHOES

It's a vintage dress.

JACK CLEARS THROAT Looks
to be machine-stitched.

PIANO SCALES PLAY

The visual features

of the holes in the dress

suggest they're acid burns.

Let's say that the
fingertips were burnt

by a sulphuric acid concentrate.

It would need to be high,

perhaps 80% to 90% concentration

to remove the ridges.

Is a domestic product possible?

Drain cleaner?

Yeah. That would make sense.

Painful. Not for her.

She was dead when the fingertips
were burnt by the acid.

You're sure?

There was no movement of
blood to heal the wounds.

Destroying her
fingerprints? Yeah.

Making it hard to identify her?

Am I difficult to work with?

Context? Harriet.

Hmm...

Maybe you wear your suspicions
a little too openly.

Put your hand out.

It's just banter.

You might think it's banter.
She might think you're...

..blunt.

Blunt?

Don't pretend to be surprised.

She's new.

She's uncertain.

You're uncertain.

You're not used
to each other yet.

Bowl of acid.

Places the fingers in.

Takes it away.

Acid drips onto the dress.

Elliptical drops.

Elliptical burns in the fabric.

Coming?

NIKKI: I examined
several synovial joints

during the postmortem.

I discovered haemorrhages
of the synovial membrane

and bloody discolouration
of synovial fluid...

Are you listening?

Suggesting she experienced
life-threatening hypothermia?

Yes.

She's an elderly woman.

Hypothermia puts a
strain on the heart.

And, yes, Jack, to
answer your question,

I was listening.

I don't know what your
expectations of me are,

Jack, but I'd just like
to hazard this guess.

I think that we're
both very similar.

I think that we both care
deeply about our work...

..and we like to do it in
our own eccentric ways,

because our job is
to deal with death...

..and it's our way of
reminding ourselves

that we're still alive.

In addition to hypothermia,

she also suffered
extreme hypohydration.

The uncompensated
loss of body water

impairs mental and
physical performance

and has a deleterious effect
on the cardiovascular system.

And the combination
stopped her heart.

Yes.

Anything from your
examination of the brain?

A likely candidate
for vascular dementia.

Confused and lost in a cave.

Do we know who she is?

Not yet.

I can take DNA from
the bones to work with.

Why would she be on
the DNA register?

JACK: She won't be. I agree.

Destroying her fingertips
suggests it wasn't an accident.

I agree. Look at that.

We've agreed twice.

Yeah. Breakthrough.
HARRIET CHUCKLES

Do we know why she was
there or how she got there?

Did she get there
under her own power?

Possibly. I found her
shoeprints in the cave.

Wandering.

The pattern of the
steps looks aimless.

Lost?

That's what I thought,

and then I found this
in one of the tunnels.

Someone else was there,

but I don't know when
or even if it's related.

Were there any shoeprints
walking in or leaving?

No, I think they'd
been purposely erased.

So you found the
one they missed.

Not much to go on, is it?

It's a wretched way to die...

..lost and alone
in the darkness.

And forgotten.

And forgotten.

It needs decorating,

JACK: It is too degraded. I
can't match it with the print

I found in the cave
- not enough detail.

Do you think she picked
the foxgloves herself?

Well, if she picked
them herself,

she would have the foxglove
juice on her hands.

It's quite gummy, so
it's going to stick.

Is there a distinguishing
chemical in foxglove juice?

Cardiac glycosides.

The acid on her fingers will
have obliterated any trace. Hmm.

What's that thought?

You pick a foxglove, which
is, by the way, illegal,

what do you do with it?

Put it in a vase? Smell it?

Foxgloves don't tend
to smell appealing.

But say she did.

The cardiac glycosides
would stick to her upper lip

and perhaps the
inside of her nostril.

Hmm.

Maybe the flowers brush
against her dress?

We're doing this
now? I mean, really?

I want to know. Don't you?

Yeah.

Hello? DOOR OPENS

I thought you could use

Thanks.

On the lookout for foxglove
cardiac glycosides?

Yes.

Oh, thank you.

CHUCKLES Digitalis.

The use of foxgloves
containing cardiac glycosides

to treat heart conditions
was first described

in the English-speaking medical
literature by William...

Withering?

Yes. In 1785.

Yes.

Thank you.

So if she touches it,

transdermal transmission
might take place.

It slows her heart rate...

And in an elderly person,
it can be very dangerous.

Might have forgot.

Negative for cardiac
glycosides on the body.

Face, nose, legs, feet.

Nothing on the
front of her dress.

I tested her shoes - nothing.

There was definitely
someone else there.

DI FLYNN: What are you thinking?

He walks her into the cave...

..and leaves her there,

confused, in the dark.

She dies.

He comes back,

tries to tidy up,

but leaves this.

If he's lucky, no-one
ever finds her body.

They give her flowers

and try and take
away her identity.

We'll get her dental records
sent over to you later today.

Well, there's nothing on
Misper that obviously matches.

But surely she lived locally.

Have you checked the care homes?

If a woman her age went
missing from a care home,

I'd expect them to report it
to the police, wouldn't you?

I'd expect the police to check.

in through the forest.

Three miles? Really? Really.

The old bridge was
washed away in the rain

a couple of days ago.

No such thing as climate
change. How do we get there?

Nice.

Pint of lager, please, mate? OK.

And another of what he's having.

Sure. It's on me.

Cheers.

What the fuck have
you done to us?

There's a crazy old
bastard stalking us.

CHUCKLES The things people
do in their retirement, eh?

Other than the crazy zombie
boomer, how is the place?

We love it. You've
done us a total solid.

Thank you.

Yeah. It's a good place.

Good location.

I had to call the
police on the bloke.

Lonely old nutter.

Yeah?

I'm familiar with them.

Lonely old nutters, that is.

What did the police say?

TENSE RHYTHMIC SYNTH PLAYS

..for your help, thank you.

Hiya.

Did I tell you I'm
trying to retire?

It's not really going very well.

It's a bit grim. Kids found it.

Can't say much more
than that, really.

I mean, it's old.
I can say that.

Old, like it's been
there a long time?

No, old like it's
a, an old person.

JACK: Had to be a
relatively big animal.

Bit of fabric.

CAMERA CLICKS

It looks like it was moved in
this direction, left to right.

DI FLYNN: You know
what I'm thinking?

I'm thinking a rambler bites
off more than he can chew...

Terrible choice of words. Sorry.

A rambler gets himself into
some, you know, trouble,

has a medical emergency,

and collapses, bosh, and dies.

Is that what you're
thinking? Yeah.

I don't think he was a rambler.

DI FLYNN GRUNTS

We need to protect the scene.

Right. Harry? Over here, mate.

DI FLYNN: Right, OK.

Now, I need you to get a
couple of things set up here...

Nikki?

EERIE SYNTH BUILDS

Can we tent this, please?

Oh, Christ.

Why would they be out
here, at their age...

..in clothes like this?

Were they posed for us to find?

DI FLYNN: Frank, we're
going to need a tent.

OK, so...

..I think her body fell here...

PANTING

..and he dragged her over there.

PANTING

And held her.
