THUNDER

0:00:020:00:04

HE CRIES OUT

0:00:500:00:51

Cease fire! Cease fire!

0:00:520:00:55

HE BREATHES HEAVILY

0:01:000:01:04

POLICEMAN TALKS INDISTINCTLY

0:02:020:02:05

Stay put, lads. I'll come back to you.

0:02:070:02:10

Police liaison called it in.

0:02:110:02:13

Tactical night manoeuvres.

0:02:130:02:15

Lance Corporal Mervyn Rogers.

0:02:150:02:18

A lance corporal on recruit training?

0:02:190:02:21

No, he wasn't part of the exercise.

0:02:210:02:23

He just got in the way, unfortunately.

0:02:230:02:26

Apparently, it was an accident.

0:02:260:02:28

He's wearing civvies, so he's off-duty.

0:02:280:02:31

Christ, he's just a kid.

0:02:310:02:33

And killed only a few hundred yards from home.

0:02:330:02:36

What was the target, Charlie?

0:02:370:02:39

Right. Damn near impossible to tell who fired the fatal shot.

0:02:410:02:45

All right.

0:02:480:02:50

Well...

0:02:500:02:51

-There's no exit wound.

-Mm-mm.

0:02:540:02:56

Single entrance wound to the anterior chest.

0:02:560:02:59

There's no evidence of sooting, or gunpowder tattooing.

0:03:020:03:07

He was shot from a distance.

0:03:100:03:12

It looks pretty straightforward.

0:03:130:03:15

According to the recruits, he died a few minutes after midnight.

0:03:150:03:20

His family have been informed.

0:03:200:03:22

Right.

0:03:220:03:24

Think they might be able to use some of your bedside manner.

0:03:250:03:28

THEY KNOCK ON DOOR

0:03:370:03:39

He must have been out running.

0:03:470:03:49

He used to do that when he couldn't sleep.

0:03:510:03:53

You'll stay here until your Ben gets home, all right?

0:03:540:03:57

Ben - your husband?

0:03:570:04:00

He's away on a training op.

0:04:000:04:03

Mrs Rogers, I know how hard this must be for you.

0:04:030:04:06

Please know you have our deepest sympathies.

0:04:060:04:09

Yes. It's best you rest for a few days.

0:04:090:04:13

If there's anything we can do, don't hesitate to ask.

0:04:130:04:15

I'll organise her leave from payroll.

0:04:150:04:18

I run the admin office on base. Daisy lives next door.

0:04:180:04:21

I just want to know why this happened to my son.

0:04:230:04:28

THUNDER CLAPS

0:04:280:04:30

I can't believe that took all night.

0:04:340:04:37

That's the military, Charlie. That is the military.

0:04:370:04:40

Accidentally shot.

0:04:420:04:45

By one of his own, no less.

0:04:450:04:47

Still, they followed the book to the letter, though.

0:04:470:04:50

Safety officers at hand. They notified the military police.

0:04:500:04:54

Nothing else anyone could have done.

0:04:540:04:55

SIREN STARTS

0:04:590:05:01

Where do you think you're going? Give me your keys.

0:05:340:05:37

Do you even have a licence?

0:05:410:05:43

Stand there.

0:05:460:05:48

Walter Johns, West Ballarat.

0:05:530:05:56

Hello, Walter. That's dangerous driving.

0:05:560:06:00

Driving in excess of 35mph, above the speed limit.

0:06:010:06:05

-No rego plates.

-Charlie?

0:06:050:06:08

Stay there.

0:06:110:06:12

Look.

0:06:150:06:16

I was meeting a girl after work.

0:06:310:06:33

What time was this?

0:06:330:06:35

Around 11:30.

0:06:350:06:37

And then?

0:06:370:06:39

I rode my bike. Took the scenic route through a paddock.

0:06:390:06:43

Some idiot had left his car running.

0:06:430:06:45

-So you stole it?

-Yeah.

0:06:450:06:48

Thought it'd impress her.

0:06:480:06:49

Turn up in a nice car.

0:06:490:06:52

So you spend the rest of the night joyriding, do you?

0:06:520:06:55

Tell me, what line of work are you in?

0:06:570:06:59

-I'm a logger.

-Logger.

0:06:590:07:02

Right.

0:07:020:07:03

So, this, then? Much need for a bayonet in your line of work?

0:07:030:07:09

-Where...

-We found it, Walter, in your car.

0:07:090:07:12

-Well, it's not mine.

-Then you tell us whose it is, then.

0:07:150:07:18

I don't know. The car? Whatever you found in it, it wasn't me.

0:07:180:07:23

Check the rego.

0:07:230:07:25

Walter, that doesn't mean you didn't commit the crime.

0:07:250:07:27

Just means you stole someone's car to commit the crime.

0:07:270:07:30

-Are you having a lend?

-Tell me about the paddock where you found the car.

0:07:300:07:33

Dunnstown, off Old Melbourne Road.

0:07:350:07:38

This would be where the car was when it stopped.

0:07:450:07:47

Yeah. Yeah, we're still searching for the owner.

0:07:470:07:49

No luck as yet.

0:07:490:07:51

If the car was left running

0:07:510:07:53

and someone was trying to dispose of a body, I mean...

0:07:530:07:58

Yeah, you wouldn't choose here.

0:07:580:08:00

You'd be digging for days.

0:08:000:08:02

And another thing - this bicycle Walter claims he was riding...

0:08:020:08:05

I know, no sign of it.

0:08:050:08:07

-Good. You're here.

-Good morning, Alice.

0:08:180:08:21

-This rug...

-Alice, call me old-fashioned.

0:08:210:08:24

Out of respect, don't you think we should start with the body first?

0:08:240:08:27

Why? He's not going to get any more dead.

0:08:270:08:30

From this amount of blood,

0:08:310:08:33

the police are aware that someone has died.

0:08:330:08:35

The size of the red blood cells and the absence of any nucleation

0:08:350:08:37

suggest it's human.

0:08:370:08:40

Yes, and trace evidence tells us someone was wrapped up in it.

0:08:400:08:43

Corpus delicti - without a body,

0:08:430:08:46

a certain amount of evidence is needed to prove possible murder.

0:08:460:08:48

Which, as of this moment, we don't have.

0:08:480:08:51

Exsanguination goes on the report.

0:08:510:08:53

Alice, look here - these burn marks seem quite fresh.

0:08:530:08:56

Perhaps the owner of the rug is a smoker.

0:08:560:08:59

Possibly.

0:08:590:09:01

And the blood is congealed down here.

0:09:010:09:03

I'll perform blood typing and toxicology tests.

0:09:030:09:06

-Now, your corporal Rogers.

-Ah.

0:09:060:09:09

The bullet missed the heart but clipped the aorta above the valve.

0:09:100:09:14

Most of the bleeding was internal.

0:09:140:09:16

So, the bullet hits his left side

0:09:160:09:20

as he's running.

0:09:200:09:21

Interesting.

0:09:230:09:25

I'll run his bloods, too, then, shall I?

0:09:250:09:27

Yes. Alice, look here.

0:09:270:09:30

There's a smear of blood across the right shoulder,

0:09:300:09:35

well away from the wound.

0:09:350:09:36

Perhaps his hands were bloody and he touched his shirt.

0:09:360:09:39

-There's one more thing.

-Yes?

0:09:400:09:43

-The bayonet you found in the car.

-Ah!

0:09:430:09:47

I see.

0:09:520:09:54

At some point, this bayonet,

0:09:550:09:58

which our boy in lock-up says wasn't his,

0:09:580:10:01

was in fact covered in blood.

0:10:010:10:04

Well, no surprises there. What about Rogers?

0:10:060:10:09

Anything we can give their investigating officer?

0:10:090:10:11

Nothing much at this stage.

0:10:110:10:13

However, we can tell him the boy was sober.

0:10:130:10:17

Got the feeling the department was wishing he wasn't.

0:10:170:10:20

Yes, it would certainly clear the military of any wrongdoing.

0:10:240:10:28

The army's asked for a full report.

0:10:290:10:32

KNOCK ON DOOR

0:10:320:10:33

Come.

0:10:330:10:34

Major.

0:10:380:10:39

You must be the Chief Superintendent.

0:10:430:10:45

-Major Derek Alderton.

-Frank Carlyle.

0:10:470:10:50

And Lucien.

0:10:500:10:53

A trip to Ballarat wouldn't be complete.

0:10:530:10:55

Derek, it's been a while.

0:10:550:10:57

-Take a seat.

-Thank you.

0:10:570:10:59

Autopsy report on Corporal Rogers.

0:11:010:11:03

-Was he drunk?

-No.

0:11:030:11:06

That's a pity.

0:11:060:11:07

So, all he was guilty of was being stupid enough

0:11:070:11:10

to run in front of a live fire exercise.

0:11:100:11:12

Well, stupidity's not something we can test for.

0:11:120:11:16

You already have.

0:11:160:11:18

-KNOCK ON DOOR

-Enter.

0:11:180:11:20

-Corporal Rogers' uniform, sir.

-Thank you, Kelly.

0:11:210:11:25

So, a midnight training exercise.

0:11:310:11:34

Well, you both know the object is to simulate an emergency scenario.

0:11:340:11:39

-Well, it worked.

-Unlike your safety procedures.

0:11:390:11:42

I'm writing a report. You're welcome to read it once it's complete.

0:11:420:11:46

Look, let's be frank, gentlemen.

0:11:460:11:48

This was just a mistake, an accident, pure and simple.

0:11:480:11:53

And the possible safety breach?

0:11:530:11:54

We'll explore thoroughly.

0:11:540:11:56

Right now the army's main priority is men and material -

0:11:570:12:01

limiting damage to morale,

0:12:010:12:03

which is why I'm here.

0:12:030:12:05

That, and to check current procedures,

0:12:050:12:09

make sure this never happens again.

0:12:090:12:12

Let's assume I know how to proceed.

0:12:130:12:15

Such a pity, isn't it?

0:12:170:12:19

All that potential gone to waste.

0:12:190:12:23

So, you two.

0:12:320:12:35

Yes, we served together.

0:12:350:12:37

So he's a mate of yours, then.

0:12:370:12:40

Not any more.

0:12:400:12:42

Yes, I can see why.

0:12:420:12:44

DOOR OPENS

0:12:440:12:46

Jean, it's me. I'm sorry, I'm heading straight back out again.

0:12:470:12:50

Just dropping my bag off.

0:12:500:12:52

Yes, I know.

0:12:520:12:53

She'll be hungry.

0:12:590:13:01

Mai Lin.

0:13:010:13:03

Yes, of course. I...

0:13:050:13:06

Thank you.

0:13:060:13:08

It's beautiful.

0:13:170:13:19

Yes, it is.

0:13:200:13:21

You know...

0:13:230:13:25

..it didn't feel like home when I came back.

0:13:260:13:29

Not at first.

0:13:290:13:31

But now...

0:13:330:13:35

Now you can't imagine living anywhere else, can you?

0:13:350:13:38

Roast beef and tomato chutney.

0:13:430:13:45

Your favourite.

0:13:450:13:47

Well, some things never change.

0:13:470:13:51

Jean, she knows you well.

0:13:520:13:55

I thought that I would see you for breakfast,

0:13:580:14:00

but she told me that you were with the police again this morning.

0:14:000:14:04

Yes. Yes.

0:14:040:14:07

We're looking into a missing person case.

0:14:070:14:09

I didn't ever think you would dedicate yourself to anything more

0:14:110:14:14

than you did the army.

0:14:140:14:16

It's all right, Lucien.

0:14:180:14:20

I understand.

0:14:200:14:22

What you're doing is important.

0:14:220:14:24

And so are you.

0:14:270:14:29

All these years...

0:14:340:14:37

..I was afraid that...

0:14:380:14:41

-No, it...

-What?

0:14:420:14:45

Mai Lin, it's all right. Afraid of what?

0:14:460:14:48

I was afraid you'd forgotten me.

0:14:500:14:52

No.

0:14:550:14:57

Never.

0:14:570:14:59

Not for a single second.

0:15:000:15:02

-Chutney.

-Oh, dear.

0:15:070:15:11

Hang on a moment.

0:15:110:15:13

Allow me.

0:15:130:15:15

Thank you.

0:15:150:15:17

'All right, Charlie,

0:15:250:15:26

'no-one's telling us where this car came from.'

0:15:260:15:29

Perhaps it's time we asked the car itself.

0:15:290:15:32

I don't really speak automobile, Doc.

0:15:320:15:35

That's very funny, Charlie.

0:15:350:15:38

Now...

0:15:380:15:40

there was a sticky substance on the rug.

0:15:400:15:43

Of course, I just assumed it was coagulated blood

0:15:430:15:47

but I think we'll find it is in fact...

0:15:470:15:50

-Pine.

-Tree sap.

0:15:520:15:56

Well, that narrows it down.

0:15:560:15:58

We're looking for a tree in Ballarat.

0:15:580:16:00

Hang on, Charlie.

0:16:000:16:01

Young Walter works as a logger, does he not?

0:16:010:16:04

You think...

0:16:040:16:06

He might be able to help us

0:16:060:16:09

find a pine needle in a haystack, what do you think?

0:16:090:16:12

What if it wasn't Walter Johns, Doc?

0:16:140:16:17

Well, Charlie, he was, quite literally,

0:16:170:16:20

caught holding what we think could be a murder weapon.

0:16:200:16:24

Still, if it wasn't him, who else could it be?

0:16:240:16:28

Who else indeed?

0:16:280:16:30

Well, whoever it was, Charlie, they've driven in here...

0:16:300:16:35

..continued down here,

0:16:370:16:39

but they've stopped here.

0:16:390:16:41

And, Charlie,

0:16:420:16:44

would you say that's a drag mark?

0:16:440:16:47

-Definitely.

-Yes.

0:16:470:16:49

And look...

0:16:490:16:50

..it continues along down here...

0:16:520:16:55

..and ends...

0:16:570:16:58

Charlie!

0:16:580:17:00

Late 20s.

0:17:090:17:11

Rigor mortis has passed.

0:17:110:17:12

No... Significant decomposition.

0:17:120:17:16

Estimated time of death...

0:17:160:17:18

..around 24 hours ago.

0:17:200:17:22

The edges of the wounds here and here

0:17:220:17:25

are consistent with the triangular cross-sections on the bayonet.

0:17:250:17:29

Her blood type matches what we found on the bayonet

0:17:290:17:32

and on the rug as well.

0:17:320:17:34

Right.

0:17:340:17:35

Anything else?

0:17:360:17:38

She had penicillin in her system.

0:17:380:17:40

Right.

0:17:420:17:44

What were you being treated for?

0:17:440:17:46

-Doctor?

-Mm?

0:17:490:17:52

It looks like a telephone number

0:17:520:17:54

and there's a name.

0:17:540:17:57

Yes.

0:17:580:18:00

Yes, hello. I was wondering, could I speak with Beverly, please?

0:18:070:18:12

I see.

0:18:150:18:16

Thank you, yes, I'll call back in the morning.

0:18:160:18:19

That was a cleaner.

0:18:240:18:26

Apparently, everyone's gone home for the day.

0:18:260:18:30

Gone home? From where?

0:18:300:18:33

The Ballarat Courier?

0:18:330:18:34

Yeah. Let's ring them in the morning and find out who Beverly is.

0:18:340:18:38

In the meantime, we may already have a suspect in our Jane Doe case.

0:18:380:18:41

-He's the owner of the FX Holden.

-Right.

0:18:410:18:44

-Why don't you take a lead on this one?

-Yes, sir.

0:18:470:18:50

Lieutenant Keith Marling Ellis. 9th CVR, Central Victorian Regiment.

0:18:520:18:57

Yes, you're stationed at the military base.

0:18:570:18:59

That's right.

0:18:590:19:01

Is this about my stolen car?

0:19:010:19:03

I'm hoping it hasn't been damaged at all.

0:19:030:19:05

I put a lot of work into that vehicle.

0:19:050:19:08

Do you know this woman?

0:19:120:19:13

No.

0:19:150:19:16

Where were you last night?

0:19:190:19:22

Laverton, on training for the past week.

0:19:220:19:25

Lieutenant, it was your car

0:19:250:19:27

that transported this woman's dead body

0:19:270:19:29

to a nearby forest last night.

0:19:290:19:32

There's a group of us on base -

0:19:320:19:35

we all share our cars.

0:19:350:19:38

Share everything.

0:19:390:19:41

You're saying anyone could have easily taken off with it?

0:19:410:19:44

Because when we found it,

0:19:440:19:46

it had no rego plates,

0:19:460:19:48

and the boot was covered top to bottom in blood.

0:19:480:19:51

I took the plates off last week,

0:19:510:19:53

so I could reroll and rechrome the bumpers.

0:19:530:19:56

But I don't know anything about any blood.

0:19:560:19:59

Where were you between nine o'clock and midnight last night, Lieutenant?

0:20:010:20:04

Finished rifle training,

0:20:060:20:07

had dinner about 8:00, a nightcap,

0:20:070:20:10

went to sleep about 9:30, maybe 10.

0:20:100:20:13

Well, Laverton's only an hour and a half away.

0:20:130:20:17

What are you getting at, Sergeant?

0:20:170:20:19

Actually, why am I talking to you

0:20:200:20:23

and not to your superior officer?

0:20:230:20:25

All right, then, Lieutenant.

0:20:290:20:31

So, you were in barracks.

0:20:350:20:36

-No, a civilian house.

-Not another soul around.

0:20:380:20:41

-No.

-So no-one can vouch for you between 9:00 and midnight, then?

0:20:420:20:45

No.

0:20:470:20:49

No.

0:20:490:20:50

Didn't think so.

0:20:510:20:53

Major.

0:20:570:20:58

Chief Superintendent.

0:20:580:21:00

I believe you're holding one of my men.

0:21:000:21:03

We are. Lieutenant Keith Ellis.

0:21:030:21:05

We were hoping with your permission we may see his service records.

0:21:050:21:08

I'm sure you would but the answer is no.

0:21:080:21:11

We can lodge a request with the DoD.

0:21:110:21:13

You can, and the answer will still be no.

0:21:130:21:16

You're questioning him over a civilian matter.

0:21:160:21:19

When it becomes a matter for the military, then we can talk.

0:21:190:21:22

-Derek, what brings you here?

-I want Ellis released. Now.

0:21:220:21:27

Yes, but that's not really your call, is it?

0:21:280:21:31

Unfortunately, Major, I can hold Lieutenant Ellis

0:21:310:21:34

for up to 24 hours without charge.

0:21:340:21:35

I'm well aware of what you can and can't do, Mr Carlyle.

0:21:350:21:38

-But this...

-This is a civilian matter.

0:21:380:21:40

When it does become a matter for the military, well...

0:21:400:21:43

Chief Superintendent.

0:21:480:21:50

Major.

0:21:510:21:53

Not going to be able to hold him off forever.

0:21:540:21:56

What other news from the day?

0:21:590:22:01

The woman's last meal. We examined the contents of her stomach...

0:22:010:22:04

-Do we have to hear about that right now?

-You did ask.

0:22:040:22:06

For what it's worth, a shiitake mushroom -

0:22:060:22:09

swallowed whole.

0:22:090:22:10

The only Asian restaurant in Ballarat is The Golden Crown.

0:22:100:22:14

Mrs Gladys Cook.

0:22:210:22:23

She's a regular.

0:22:230:22:25

How did this happen?

0:22:260:22:27

That's what we're trying to determine, Mr Tan.

0:22:270:22:31

When did you last see her?

0:22:310:22:33

The night before last.

0:22:350:22:37

She ate quickly, said that she was meeting a friend.

0:22:370:22:39

Right. You seem to remember an awful lot about...

0:22:390:22:43

I remember because I offered to drive her there.

0:22:430:22:46

I see.

0:22:460:22:48

What time did you leave with her?

0:22:480:22:50

Around 9:30.

0:22:500:22:53

Mm-mm. So you were close friends, then.

0:22:530:22:58

I dropped her off.

0:22:580:23:00

Then I drove straight back to work.

0:23:000:23:03

My 12-year-old daughter came with us.

0:23:030:23:05

She'll be at the restaurant after school,

0:23:050:23:08

if you're planning on interrogating her, too.

0:23:080:23:10

Sorry, Mr Tan.

0:23:100:23:12

Where exactly did you take her?

0:23:120:23:15

Seeing how the other half live, doctor?

0:24:040:24:06

Maybe.

0:24:060:24:08

What exactly are the other half doing?

0:24:080:24:11

Payroll.

0:24:110:24:12

She needed a distraction.

0:24:120:24:15

I'd have thought you'd be with the others right now,

0:24:150:24:17

interrogating my husband.

0:24:170:24:19

-You're Joyce...

-Ellis, that's right.

0:24:210:24:23

So, what did Keith do now?

0:24:230:24:26

Something to do with that bloody car he loves so much?

0:24:260:24:28

His car wasn't borrowed this time, Mrs Ellis, it was stolen.

0:24:280:24:32

I'm guessing it's usually parked by your quarters.

0:24:320:24:34

Behind them, yes.

0:24:340:24:36

You didn't see anything, hear anything?

0:24:360:24:38

-Not a thing.

-Right.

0:24:380:24:41

Um, Mrs Ellis, do you know a woman by the name of Gladys Cook?

0:24:410:24:47

Was...was that who you found in the forest?

0:24:510:24:53

Yes. Was she a friend?

0:24:530:24:55

She worked in the mailroom.

0:24:560:24:58

I hadn't seen her since she left the base six months ago.

0:24:580:25:01

None of us had. We all used to be quite close.

0:25:010:25:04

She and her husband...

0:25:040:25:06

They're separated now. He took a posting interstate.

0:25:060:25:09

I see.

0:25:090:25:11

Your husband, Keith, told the police he didn't know Gladys.

0:25:110:25:17

He...he would have lied, because...

0:25:200:25:22

..whatever he and Gladys got up to, we dealt with it.

0:25:250:25:27

I see.

0:25:290:25:31

You'll have to excuse me - we're all knocking off early today,

0:25:310:25:34

meeting our husbands for a drink.

0:25:340:25:35

Of course. Mrs Ellis - Joyce - one last thing, if I may.

0:25:350:25:39

You help with recruiting women to work on the base, yes?

0:25:390:25:42

I do. Why do you ask?

0:25:420:25:45

We're looking for a woman by the name of Beverly.

0:25:450:25:49

Beverly Alison, maybe.

0:25:490:25:52

She works in the laundry with Kelly.

0:25:520:25:55

-Is she working today?

-No, it's her day off.

0:25:550:25:58

Joyce, tell me, do you think you could possibly help me...

0:25:580:26:01

Lucien.

0:26:010:26:03

Do you have a moment?

0:26:070:26:09

So, Mai Lin's alive.

0:26:130:26:15

That war just keeps throwing us surprises, doesn't it?

0:26:180:26:23

Quite.

0:26:230:26:24

She enjoying Ballarat?

0:26:250:26:28

Well, she doesn't really know anyone here.

0:26:280:26:30

She knows you.

0:26:300:26:32

My wife was missing for longer than we were married. Let's just say...

0:26:340:26:38

..I got used to my situation.

0:26:390:26:41

Well, now you don't have to.

0:26:410:26:43

You should take some time off, Lucien.

0:26:450:26:48

Instead of loitering around my base, harassing my staff.

0:26:480:26:52

I'm trying to find Beverly Alison.

0:26:540:26:55

Due back at work tomorrow, apparently.

0:26:550:26:58

She's a solid link to Gladys Cook,

0:26:580:27:00

whose murder, I believe, is connected to your base somehow.

0:27:000:27:04

Do you remember the last time we saw each other?

0:27:080:27:10

Men marching through the streets of Ballarat.

0:27:120:27:16

Soldiers, all of whom were once part of something

0:27:160:27:20

much bigger than themselves.

0:27:200:27:22

All marching in unison.

0:27:230:27:26

Relying on the man next to them to keep them in line.

0:27:260:27:29

Yes.

0:27:330:27:34

All blindly following orders

0:27:360:27:39

without ever stopping to consider the consequences.

0:27:390:27:43

You know, I'm beginning to see a bit of a pattern in you, Lucien.

0:27:430:27:47

How so? You're hiding, aren't you?

0:27:480:27:52

You've made a job for yourself

0:27:530:27:55

unravelling the mysteries of missing women.

0:27:550:27:58

Finding my wife...

0:28:040:28:05

..was never a job.

0:28:060:28:08

Derek.

0:28:120:28:14

KNOCK ON DOOR

0:28:230:28:24

Just a minute.

0:28:240:28:26

Please, come in.

0:28:330:28:35

You didn't have to come all this way just to drop those off.

0:28:350:28:39

I wanted to say thank you,

0:28:390:28:41

and to return your plates.

0:28:410:28:43

They're the doctor's plates.

0:28:430:28:45

Yes, but I know how you take care of him.

0:28:450:28:49

These things are important to you.

0:28:490:28:51

And I wanted to tell you that I understand.

0:28:530:28:58

I know how difficult my arrival must have been.

0:28:580:29:02

He seems...

0:29:030:29:04

He seems very happy here.

0:29:070:29:09

Well, you're his wife,

0:29:120:29:14

and that's all there is to it.

0:29:140:29:16

So, Lucien told me that he and the police

0:29:230:29:26

were investigating a missing woman.

0:29:260:29:28

Yes, they are.

0:29:280:29:30

He spoke to you about that?

0:29:300:29:32

Yes, I think.

0:29:320:29:33

I think perhaps he wanted to talk.

0:29:330:29:36

Yes.

0:29:360:29:39

That sounds like him.

0:29:390:29:41

-Thank you.

-No need.

0:29:450:29:47

-Excuse me?

-Open bar.

0:29:470:29:49

Mrs Forsyth over there's insisted on paying for everyone.

0:29:490:29:52

How lovely. Thank you so much.

0:29:520:29:54

I see the Chief Superintendent has released Keith Ellis, then.

0:29:570:30:00

Not before he got a confession out of him, though.

0:30:000:30:03

He admitted that he was sleeping with the victim.

0:30:030:30:05

-Yes, so I heard.

-From who?

0:30:050:30:09

-Mrs Ellis.

-Doctor.

0:30:110:30:13

Here to pay your respects?

0:30:130:30:14

Sergeant Davis and I are, yes.

0:30:140:30:16

That's very kind of you. I'm sure the family will appreciate it.

0:30:160:30:19

They're about to start. Doctor?

0:30:190:30:22

Mrs Forsyth, thank you so much for the drinks.

0:30:220:30:26

That's ever so generous of you. You're quite welcome.

0:30:260:30:29

Mrs Ellis there - Joyce -

0:30:310:30:34

was quite close to Gladys Cook, too, apparently,

0:30:340:30:37

as were Daisy and Ben.

0:30:370:30:40

If I may, everybody, a toast.

0:30:400:30:44

To Merv.

0:30:440:30:46

ALL: To Merv.

0:30:480:30:49

I imagine that's Kelly's husband.

0:30:510:30:54

Yes, Daniel Forsyth.

0:30:540:30:57

They all live on the base.

0:30:570:30:59

Are we sure that's Kelly's husband?

0:31:010:31:04

Yes. He seems quite...

0:31:040:31:07

close with Mrs Ellis, doesn't he?

0:31:070:31:10

Gentlemen.

0:31:100:31:12

Friend of the deceased, were you?

0:31:120:31:15

-Something like that.

-Like what exactly?

0:31:150:31:18

A few days ago, I received a message at work.

0:31:200:31:23

A woman claiming to have a story about the Ballarat military base.

0:31:230:31:27

-She left a number for me to call.

-And?

0:31:270:31:30

And I've been calling nonstop - no answer.

0:31:300:31:33

I figured if she was from the base,

0:31:340:31:36

she might see me here, maybe approach me.

0:31:360:31:38

If this woman is so eager to talk,

0:31:380:31:41

why do you suppose she's not answering the telephone?

0:31:410:31:44

People want to report something, they get nervous.

0:31:440:31:46

They change their mind. It happens all the time.

0:31:460:31:49

Or she can't answer the telephone.

0:31:490:31:52

The woman who was murdered.

0:31:560:31:58

Gladys Cook lived on base six months ago.

0:31:580:32:02

You didn't think to bring this to the attention of the police.

0:32:020:32:06

It wasn't a police matter until three seconds ago.

0:32:060:32:09

I'm going to need that number. I'll check the phone book here.

0:32:090:32:12

The number, please, Miss Anderson.

0:32:150:32:16

You know I'm not on the payroll at the station, right?

0:32:160:32:19

-I don't have to tell you anything.

-Now!

0:32:190:32:22

Thank you.

0:32:240:32:26

So what am I missing?

0:32:310:32:32

The night Merv Rogers died,

0:32:350:32:38

he'd gone for a run around the base.

0:32:380:32:40

Nothing unusual according to his mother, Daisy, over there.

0:32:400:32:44

And?

0:32:440:32:46

He was wearing trousers and a smart shirt, not exactly...

0:32:480:32:51

And quite frankly,

0:32:570:32:59

of all places to run and exercise on base, why there?

0:32:590:33:04

Through trees, in the dark, on uneven ground.

0:33:040:33:08

That's a good point.

0:33:080:33:10

-Do you want another?

-I'd love one.

0:33:110:33:13

Oi! I'm not going to tell you again.

0:33:240:33:25

Stop coming around the wrong side of the bar!

0:33:250:33:28

Rose! You followed me.

0:34:140:34:18

When you ducked out of the pub I figured you were on to something.

0:34:180:34:21

You really shouldn't be out here doing this sort of thing alone.

0:34:210:34:24

I'm not alone, am I?

0:34:240:34:26

Listen, sometimes journalists think

0:34:280:34:31

the story is more important than their own safety - it's not.

0:34:310:34:34

-Trust me, I know.

-I'll be careful, then.

0:34:340:34:37

So, what are we looking for, Nancy Drew?

0:34:370:34:39

Come on.

0:34:410:34:43

It seems strange to me

0:34:430:34:45

that Rogers was running so close to the fence.

0:34:450:34:50

Damn thing's been cut.

0:34:590:35:00

Rose, he wasn't out for a late-night run,

0:35:020:35:04

he was running back on to base from the outside.

0:35:040:35:07

What was Rogers doing outside the camp?

0:35:070:35:09

-There's only one way to find out.

-Where are you going?

0:35:110:35:14

Alderson doesn't want me on the base

0:35:160:35:18

and he doesn't want us seeing Ellis's service records.

0:35:180:35:21

That's army property.

0:35:220:35:24

Always lovely chatting with you, Rose.

0:35:250:35:27

Sir! I'm going to ask you to put your hands up

0:36:210:36:24

and turn around.

0:36:240:36:26

There's really no need for that, Private.

0:36:310:36:33

I have my identification right here in my jacket pocket.

0:36:330:36:36

I'm Doctor Lucien Blake,

0:36:360:36:37

Ballarat police surgeon.

0:36:370:36:39

Now, what say we lower that weapon of yours, mm?

0:36:390:36:43

-Lucien, where have you been?

-Just dealing with some paperwork.

0:36:460:36:50

-The hospital called for you.

-Oh, they did?

0:36:500:36:51

Yes. Alice has been in touch with Gladys Cook's current doctor.

0:36:510:36:55

Oh, thank you. Anything of interest?

0:36:570:37:00

Gladys presented with a venereal disease.

0:37:020:37:05

Ah! Which explains the penicillin.

0:37:050:37:08

Gladys's doctor is here in town?

0:37:080:37:11

Yes. He has her records dated back over a year.

0:37:110:37:14

I see. Now, why wouldn't she see the military doctor

0:37:140:37:19

if she lived on base?

0:37:190:37:20

Lucien, I just dropped a domino under there.

0:37:200:37:23

Oh. Ah, yes.

0:37:230:37:27

-There we are.

-Thank you.

0:37:280:37:30

How are things at the base?

0:37:300:37:32

Um, Jean, would you mind if I just had a bit of a...

0:37:340:37:39

Not at all. I'm losing anyway.

0:37:390:37:40

Let's imagine, just for a moment,

0:37:410:37:44

this domino represents Keith Ellis.

0:37:440:37:47

Now, Joyce Ellis was, of course, intimate with her husband.

0:37:490:37:53

Gladys Cook was having an affair with Keith.

0:37:550:37:59

She was?

0:37:590:38:02

Oh, yes.

0:38:020:38:03

And we discovered just this afternoon

0:38:030:38:05

that it's highly likely that Joyce was, shall we say,

0:38:050:38:09

quite familiar with a chap called Forsyth, Daniel Forsyth,

0:38:090:38:14

who is an officer on base.

0:38:140:38:16

Now, Daniel is married to Kelly.

0:38:160:38:21

Kelly, it would appear, may well be involved

0:38:210:38:27

with Ben Rogers.

0:38:270:38:29

Ben, of course, is Daisy's husband.

0:38:290:38:34

How do you like them apples?

0:38:340:38:36

So, they were all stepping out together.

0:38:360:38:39

How do they keep it from each other?

0:38:390:38:41

Maybe they don't.

0:38:440:38:46

Hang on. Are you telling me that...

0:38:480:38:50

Yes!

0:38:500:38:53

I think they're a community of couples

0:38:530:38:55

who all enjoy each other's, shall we say...

0:38:550:38:59

...company, consensually.

0:39:000:39:03

Right. So when Keith Ellis said they share everything...

0:39:040:39:07

He meant it.

0:39:070:39:10

And I think Gladys Cook and this Beverly woman are involved too.

0:39:100:39:13

Beverly Alison. We're off to interview her now.

0:39:130:39:15

Frank, promiscuity within the base

0:39:150:39:19

poses a serious security problem for the military.

0:39:190:39:22

Maybe that's why Alderton's here.

0:39:220:39:23

And of course there's Corporal Rogers.

0:39:230:39:27

Who we know is connected to the hole in the fence that you found.

0:39:270:39:30

Yes. You know, I think we've been looking at this all wrong.

0:39:300:39:34

These are the questions we should be asking.

0:39:340:39:37

One, why was he sneaking back onto base so late at night?

0:39:370:39:40

And two, what the hell was he doing outside in the first place?

0:39:400:39:43

Well, I think there's only one person I could ask right now.

0:39:460:39:49

You're suggesting that Rogers was involved in the death of Gladys Cook?

0:39:490:39:53

Rogers was sneaking back onto base through a hole in the fence

0:39:530:39:57

the night Gladys Cook died.

0:39:570:39:58

The vehicle that was dumped we now know belongs to Lieutenant Ellis.

0:39:580:40:02

He managed to drive Ellis's car off the base without being seen.

0:40:020:40:06

We think he may have distracted the sentry on duty

0:40:060:40:08

by throwing a rock through the window.

0:40:080:40:11

Kelly, we're after Beverly Alison.

0:40:120:40:14

She's not here today.

0:40:140:40:16

She should be, she clocked on at 8:00.

0:40:160:40:19

Oh, she went home sick.

0:40:190:40:20

Right. Thank you.

0:40:210:40:23

We'll need to be informed when Beverly does return to work.

0:40:250:40:29

Your police surgeon was here yesterday, drinking on the job.

0:40:290:40:32

And?

0:40:320:40:34

And I believe it was Blake who found that hole in the wire

0:40:340:40:37

before he was caught trespassing on military property.

0:40:370:40:40

If he's found on this base again without my permission...

0:40:410:40:45

-You'll have him arrested.

-No.

0:40:450:40:48

I may just have him shot.

0:40:480:40:50

You deal with your men, Chief Superintendent.

0:40:500:40:54

And I'll deal with mine.

0:40:550:40:57

Good day to you.

0:40:570:40:59

Um, I'm actually here to find out a little bit more about Gladys Cook.

0:41:130:41:17

I figured it wasn't for the biscuits.

0:41:170:41:20

Yeah, I know you have a doctor here on base,

0:41:220:41:25

but Gladys chose to visit a doctor in town.

0:41:250:41:29

Yes?

0:41:310:41:33

Well, apparently, the last time the military doctor saw her,

0:41:330:41:38

he recommended she see someone at the special clinic

0:41:380:41:43

at Ballarat Hospital.

0:41:430:41:46

He made that same recommendation to other women on base too.

0:41:470:41:50

Whatever happened to doctor/patient confidentiality?

0:41:510:41:54

No names were mentioned, Joyce.

0:41:540:41:56

I'm assuming you're all presenting with the same symptoms.

0:42:000:42:03

This was never easy to talk about but...

0:42:060:42:10

this really needs to be addressed.

0:42:100:42:12

When Keith came home from Korea,

0:42:200:42:23

he told me about this... activity.

0:42:230:42:27

Out there, they weren't too sure of a tomorrow,

0:42:270:42:32

so the men would...

0:42:320:42:35

...give their wives to fellow soldiers.

0:42:350:42:38

That way if anything should happen

0:42:380:42:41

there would always be someone to take care of us.

0:42:410:42:44

That's how it all started.

0:42:440:42:46

Didn't take long for it to become normal

0:42:460:42:49

within our own little group.

0:42:490:42:51

It's a kind of love when love isn't around.

0:42:510:42:57

Yes.

0:43:000:43:01

But you weren't happy with this, were you?

0:43:010:43:04

Of course we weren't happy with it.

0:43:040:43:05

Every marriage comes at a cost, Dr Blake.

0:43:080:43:11

That's very true.

0:43:150:43:16

And Gladys...

0:43:170:43:19

Gladys was part of this.

0:43:190:43:21

Until she and her husband separated. We never saw her again after that.

0:43:210:43:26

The women confirmed they'd been...

0:43:290:43:31

..indulging in partner swapping.

0:43:320:43:34

Gladys was part of it.

0:43:340:43:36

And they just...

0:43:370:43:39

...gave you this information, did they?

0:43:400:43:42

Well, I am a doctor.

0:43:420:43:44

Updated autopsy report,

0:43:450:43:48

confirming the presence of Gladys Cook's blood

0:43:480:43:50

on Merv Rogers' clothing.

0:43:500:43:53

Well, it's cut and dried, then.

0:43:530:43:55

Frank, I...

0:43:560:43:58

I still don't think Merv killed Gladys.

0:43:580:44:01

What was his motive?

0:44:010:44:02

Crime of passion, for one.

0:44:020:44:05

Numerous sexual dalliances going on on the base,

0:44:050:44:08

and the victim's blood on his shirt.

0:44:080:44:10

What more do you want?

0:44:100:44:12

-Doc.

-Yes?

0:44:160:44:18

A recruit came forward earlier,

0:44:180:44:20

saying they served Rogers at the officers' mess at half past nine.

0:44:200:44:24

Half past nine, Charlie. Let's think about this.

0:44:280:44:31

Merv kills her,

0:44:320:44:35

transports and buries the body,

0:44:350:44:37

then makes his way back to base.

0:44:370:44:39

-All within...

-All within a couple of hours.

0:44:390:44:41

Really?

0:44:410:44:44

Two hours, start to finish.

0:44:460:44:48

Now, let's say it took him half an hour to kill Gladys

0:44:480:44:51

and drag her body to the car.

0:44:510:44:53

And drive off the base without being seen.

0:44:530:44:55

Exactly, let's go.

0:44:550:44:57

Right, Charlie, we know Corporal Rogers buried the body over there.

0:45:050:45:09

How long would that take? Half an hour? An hour?

0:45:090:45:12

I'll meet you halfway and say 45 minutes.

0:45:120:45:14

But that would mean

0:45:140:45:15

-he'd only have half an hour to get back to the base.

-Exactly.

0:45:150:45:18

Not looking very probable, is it?

0:45:180:45:20

All right. He parks the car, gets out,

0:45:230:45:26

looks for a suitable place to hide the evidence.

0:45:260:45:29

He leaves the knife and the rug in the car,

0:45:290:45:31

which is when Walter and his girlfriend steal it.

0:45:310:45:33

Yes. By now it would be a quarter to 12.

0:45:330:45:36

There's a slim chance

0:45:360:45:38

that if he ran back to base - and I mean RAN -

0:45:380:45:41

he might just make it in time, but...

0:45:410:45:43

There's no way he'd find any time

0:45:430:45:44

to clean up the scene of the crime after killing Gladys.

0:45:440:45:47

So, either Rogers didn't do it...

0:45:470:45:51

Or... Or he wasn't working alone.

0:45:510:45:54

What happened?

0:45:570:45:59

-I'm going to wash up.

-Right you are, Charlie.

0:45:590:46:01

Well, Carlyle is about to posthumously charge Corporal Rogers

0:46:010:46:08

with Gladys Cook's murder, but you know what?

0:46:080:46:11

I don't think he killed her.

0:46:110:46:14

-Anyhow, I should wash up too.

-How is Mai Lin?

0:46:140:46:18

Um, well, she's, um...

0:46:200:46:24

You know, she's adjusting.

0:46:260:46:28

Um...

0:46:280:46:29

She's never been anywhere quite like Ballarat before.

0:46:310:46:35

Must be so difficult for her.

0:46:350:46:36

-Yes.

-After everything's that's happened.

0:46:360:46:39

Must be awful to be so alone.

0:46:390:46:42

And to be so dependent on people you barely know.

0:46:420:46:46

Lucien?

0:46:480:46:49

Sorry, Jean.

0:46:500:46:52

Something you said just now.

0:46:520:46:55

These army wives...

0:46:550:46:57

They say Gladys left their group. I'm starting to wonder.

0:46:570:47:01

Look, the husband's gone. She has to move off base. She's all alone.

0:47:030:47:08

Why would her friends just cut her off?

0:47:080:47:13

She'd be devastated.

0:47:130:47:16

Maybe Gladys was back on base to get revenge.

0:47:160:47:20

Maybe.

0:47:210:47:23

Maybe she'd become a threat.

0:47:260:47:27

Does anyone else know about the promiscuity within the group?

0:47:270:47:30

-Beverly Alison might.

-The woman you can't find.

0:47:300:47:34

Lucien, officers have just got back

0:47:360:47:38

from Beverly Alison's listed address.

0:47:380:47:40

It's an empty block.

0:47:400:47:42

They're checking for another address or a postal box.

0:47:420:47:45

Right. If Beverly knew Gladys, she could be in real danger.

0:47:450:47:50

Have you checked the lieutenant's alibi or any of the husbands'?

0:47:500:47:53

Yes, they all check out. All except for Ellis's.

0:47:530:47:55

Still to find anyone who can confirm his story?

0:47:550:47:59

Right. Service records?

0:47:590:48:01

No, no luck yet.

0:48:010:48:02

We have heard some scuttlebutt from a few men at the base

0:48:020:48:05

suggesting the lieutenant has been warned before for roughing up women.

0:48:050:48:08

-Charming.

-They're also saying

0:48:080:48:11

Gladys Cook tried to enter the base several times a month or two ago.

0:48:110:48:15

I'll give you one guess the CO was who personally threw her out.

0:48:150:48:18

-Keith Ellis.

-Mm.

0:48:180:48:20

All of this officially makes Beverly a missing person,

0:48:200:48:24

which, of course, is exactly what Gladys was until she wasn't.

0:48:240:48:28

Frank, are these Ellis's licence plates?

0:48:280:48:33

Charlie found them at the base. Why?

0:48:330:48:35

If he was so attached to his car,

0:48:350:48:39

he might have come up with a playful nickname for it...

0:48:390:48:43

..inspired by the registration plates.

0:48:430:48:47

Beverly.

0:48:470:48:48

I-I don't understand.

0:48:560:48:58

Mrs Rogers, we believe Gladys Cook was killed here on the base

0:48:580:49:03

and Merv was enlisted to help remove the body.

0:49:030:49:06

Using Keith's car.

0:49:060:49:08

Merv was familiar with it. He'd driven it before.

0:49:080:49:11

Isn't that right, Joyce?

0:49:110:49:13

What, you think that I...

0:49:130:49:16

Gladys is my friend.

0:49:170:49:19

Was your friend, Mrs Ellis.

0:49:190:49:21

She was on the base that night

0:49:210:49:23

because she was about to go to the Courier

0:49:230:49:25

with your group's little secret.

0:49:250:49:27

-You know?

-About your little arrangement? Yes, we do.

0:49:290:49:34

But that's not what Gladys was going to report to the Courier.

0:49:340:49:37

You all wanted some kind of payback

0:49:370:49:42

for what your husbands and the Army had put you through.

0:49:420:49:45

So, you created a female employee out of thin air.

0:49:450:49:51

Gave her a job in the laundry.

0:49:510:49:53

The laundry, perfect.

0:49:530:49:56

She'd rarely be seen, if at all,

0:49:560:49:59

and of course you pay her a wage.

0:49:590:50:01

But you did make one mistake.

0:50:010:50:04

You named her after one thing your husband loved more than you.

0:50:040:50:07

His car, Beverly.

0:50:070:50:09

Major Alderton, just thinking out loud here -

0:50:110:50:14

military funds missing?

0:50:140:50:15

Quite a substantial amount, actually.

0:50:150:50:18

Yes.

0:50:180:50:21

Impossible to do on your own,

0:50:210:50:24

but Daisy in payroll, Gladys in the mailroom,

0:50:240:50:29

Kelly working in the laundry -

0:50:290:50:30

it was easy enough to maintain the illusion.

0:50:300:50:33

Beverly was just one of many created identities.

0:50:350:50:38

And this brilliant idea,

0:50:400:50:43

was all yours, wasn't it, Mrs Ellis?

0:50:440:50:48

Even if any of this was true,

0:50:510:50:54

I don't see how this proves I killed Gladys.

0:50:540:50:58

The rug used to transport Gladys's body

0:50:580:51:02

had cigarette burns all over it.

0:51:020:51:04

Fine, except the rug I own, you're all standing on it.

0:51:060:51:10

The rug used to transport Gladys's body...

0:51:130:51:16

had circular imprints on it.

0:51:190:51:21

Clearly, your lovely coffee table here has square legs.

0:51:210:51:26

So, would you mind terribly

0:51:260:51:28

if we had a look inside your place, Mrs Rogers?

0:51:280:51:32

What really happened, Daisy...

0:51:390:51:41

..when Merv arrived and saw that you'd killed Gladys?

0:51:420:51:45

No.

0:51:480:51:49

He was disciplined, well-trained.

0:51:490:51:53

He would have sprung into action to try and help you.

0:51:530:51:55

Gladys came here because she was scared of Joyce.

0:51:580:52:01

You all were. She was desperate.

0:52:010:52:05

She probably thought, of all the women, she could talk to you.

0:52:050:52:10

Of course Gladys could ruin everything for all of you.

0:52:100:52:13

Please, I...

0:52:130:52:16

You argued.

0:52:160:52:18

And then when she threatened you,

0:52:180:52:19

you stabbed her to death right here, right where I'm standing now.

0:52:190:52:24

The burn marks on the rug. Cigarettes?

0:52:250:52:29

No. I think you burnt whatever evidence

0:52:310:52:34

Gladys brought with her that night.

0:52:340:52:38

Payroll ledgers.

0:52:450:52:47

But they're gone.

0:52:490:52:51

It's all gone.

0:52:510:52:53

Ah, but it's not, Daisy.

0:52:540:52:57

This was delivered to the Ballarat Courier earlier today.

0:53:000:53:03

Sent by a Beverly Alison.

0:53:040:53:07

Gladys must have written up a copy and posted it to them

0:53:070:53:11

before she came here.

0:53:110:53:13

Before she came here to ask for her share of the money.

0:53:140:53:18

You see, this was never about the sex,

0:53:180:53:22

or the love,

0:53:220:53:25

it was all about the money.

0:53:250:53:28

Money and power.

0:53:280:53:30

Taking back some sort of control in your lives.

0:53:300:53:34

And your son was shot

0:53:340:53:37

because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time, Daisy.

0:53:370:53:40

And he was only there because you implicated him

0:53:400:53:44

in the murder of Gladys Cook.

0:53:440:53:46

I didn't mean to.

0:53:460:53:48

I just want my son back.

0:53:500:53:52

I heard Daisy Rogers killed Gladys Cook.

0:54:060:54:08

-Uh-huh.

-So it's true?

0:54:080:54:10

-It sounds like you already know.

-What was her motive?

0:54:100:54:13

Does it have anything to do with why Mrs Cook called me?

0:54:130:54:17

You're not going to give me anything

0:54:180:54:20

after I told you about the package she sent to the Courier.

0:54:200:54:22

Which you opened up and read first.

0:54:220:54:25

Why? So it all ends up in tomorrow's paper?

0:54:250:54:29

-You were right, you know?

-About what?

0:54:290:54:31

You're not on the payroll at the station.

0:54:310:54:33

So she's confessed.

0:54:430:54:44

Yes. Well, Joyce Ellis was the ringleader,

0:54:440:54:47

but Daisy Rogers admitted to the rest.

0:54:470:54:49

Now the army can focus on what's really important in this whole disaster -

0:54:500:54:55

-the bloody paperwork.

-Ha!

0:54:550:54:57

You ever miss it?

0:54:570:54:59

No. No, not any more.

0:55:010:55:04

Do you?

0:55:040:55:05

Not at all.

0:55:050:55:07

You know, you're still going to have to deal with the top brass

0:55:070:55:11

for a while longer, I'm afraid.

0:55:110:55:13

You do know he was in town before the incident.

0:55:130:55:17

-Major.

-Gentlemen.

0:55:190:55:22

Just thought I'd drop by to make sure we're all on the same page

0:55:240:55:27

and to confirm that Corporal Rogers is to be posthumously charged.

0:55:270:55:32

Yes, he is, as an accessory to murder.

0:55:320:55:35

Excuse me.

0:55:350:55:36

Thank you, Superintendent.

0:55:360:55:39

Derek, you already knew about the money laundering, didn't you?

0:55:420:55:46

We knew that funds were trickling out.

0:55:460:55:48

We just didn't know how or by whom.

0:55:480:55:51

-The police could've helped you.

-And they did.

0:55:530:55:55

No-one had connected the money laundering to these three women

0:55:550:55:59

until you came along.

0:55:590:56:00

Priceless.

0:56:030:56:04

I was working for you the whole time.

0:56:040:56:06

You don't like it when things land in your lap, do you, Lucien?

0:56:060:56:10

You prefer an obstacle.

0:56:100:56:13

So I thought I'd throw you a little challenge.

0:56:150:56:17

Why are you really here, Derek?

0:56:200:56:23

Good afternoon, Lucien.

0:56:250:56:28

DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES

0:56:330:56:36

It's over?

0:56:420:56:43

Chief Superintendent Carlyle insisted I go home and relax.

0:56:450:56:50

Well, after all those late nights I'm not surprised.

0:56:500:56:54

Things can get back to normal now, I suppose.

0:56:540:56:57

Jean...

0:57:010:57:03

..I'm sorry if you've been feeling a bit...

0:57:050:57:09

..in the dark with everything.

0:57:090:57:11

Something of an understatement, I know.

0:57:140:57:16

I want you...

0:57:180:57:19

I want you to know you're not losing anything.

0:57:200:57:26

I promise you.

0:57:260:57:27

Mai Lin and I...

0:57:290:57:30

It's just not the same as it was.

0:57:330:57:35

It really isn't.

0:57:350:57:38

But a big part of it is.

0:57:400:57:41

That kind of love, it never really goes away, does it?

0:57:410:57:47

And I want you to know I understand that.

0:57:470:57:50

She's your priority now.
