Good Cop, Bad Cop, Weird Cop DIXI

Hey, it's Shari.

So, Mimi confessed to Miss Johnson that she's the Dixi Killer.

And everyone's like, "Case closed", but I messaged her for the password

to my hacked account,

and she still hasn't replied, so I'm still locked out.

And getting my account back was the whole point of this murder hunt.

And Mimi's lied before, remember, when she said she got haxed,

so what if she's lying now too?

Then the real hacker might still be out there.

But I've got a plan. Good cop, bad cop.

-I'm only helping if I'm bad cop.

-Always with the bad cop, Eve!

-Ooo, that sounds fun. Can I join in?

-It's not fun, Isla.

We are interrogating.

OK. Can I interrogate?

You can intimidate the witness.

-What do you mean?

-You know, like, do stuff to throw her off. OK.

SHAKES RATTLE

OK, you take the camera and film.

-Hi, Shari.

-RATTLING

-Isla, what are you doing?

-I'm intimidating you.

-I'm the bad cop.

-No, no, Eve's the bad cop.

Oh, OK.

I'm the intimidating cop.

Hey, Meem.

So, all this hacking? Can't have been easy to confess?

-Brave of you.

-Woooo!

Thanks.

Right, what's going on? Why are you being so nice about it, Shari?

-I'm not being nice, I'm being GOOD...

-Oh.

I think it all seems a bit suspicious actually, Meem.

-What seems suspicious?

-It's just really suspicious.

Suspicious!

OK, Isla, you can stop being the intimidating cop now.

Good. That was very stressful.

Why didn't you reply when I asked for my account password last night?

I was busy.

Prom committee stuff.

That's true, actually, Shari. Her mum's got her doing loads.

Mimi even ran the meeting on Tuesday when Lana couldn't make it herself.

OK, Isla, you're not supposed to be supportive cop(!)

Wait...

-..you were at the prom committee on Tuesday evening?

-Yeah.

So you were at school when the posters were being put up.

Is she good cop or bad cop now?

I think she's probably both.

You don't have the passwords, do you?

Because you're not the hacker. You're making it up again!

All right, OK, fine.

I lied, I'm sorry.

I...I wanted the attention, as usual.

I'm just a stupid, silly, attention seeking liar.

Can I go now?

Just leave me alone!

Do you think she's OK? Should we...?

The best thing we can do for her is tell Miss Johnson the truth.

-She's not here.

-Well, let's go in and wait for her.

-Shari, look.

-GASPS

Woman's Budgie Lives To 25. Wow!

No, this. School budget cuts.

Drew Fletcher Academy today announced massive cuts to

teachers' jobs.

All non-essential roles, such as online safety officer, will be axed.

But if someone from the school is hacking the Dixi pages,

they can't get rid of the online safety officer.

HUGE GASP

So the person who's got the most to gain from all this hacking is

Miss Johnson!

'Yeah, LavenderWhirlingBear, I do feel kind of bad for Mimi.

'But that's why we need to uncover the truth.

'And that's me, GarnetQuirkyDove. I'm always outside the box.'

Hey, it's Shari, and we have a new prime suspect, Miss Johnson.

Turns out, school's got no money even

though I spend about a zillion pounds a year in the vending machine.

I mean, how much can whiteboards even cost?

Anyway, they're getting rid of teachers' extra jobs,

like Miss Johnson's as online security officer.

So, new theory...

Miss Johnson haxed us all

to show people how important online security is.

Which it is. I definitely get that point now.

DIAL TONE Plus...

Hey, Shari.

Eve has some new evidence.

I do, but I also have some news you might be interested in.

Zane is back in Isla's band because, after the whole dog thing,

he knows none of us were trying to set him up.

Well, that's great.

So maybe he doesn't totally hate me any more either.

I wonder if he's got a date to the prom?

He probably has, right?

I don't know. My mind reading's been a bit off lately(!)

-Good one.

-I try(!)

-Maybe I could...no!

-We'll talk about this later. Dixi's more important.

-OK, fine.

All the hacker's posts have too many Ls in the words.

-Either he can't spell, or...

-They're using a keyboard with a broken key?

BOTH: The computer room!

There are 12 computers in our school computer room.

Computer number six has a sticky L key.

You get like a million Ls a word every time you try to type.

It's so annoying.

The killer must have struck here.

Miss Johnson, in the computer room, with computer six.

It's going to be tricky to prove.

The computer room is opened with a code which only the staff know.

So, this is where I've got to,

I need to get into the computer room, check the computer log, and see

if Miss Johnson was signed in when the hacking happened.

So I need someone who can get the computer room code.

Someone who has the teachers and caretakers

wrapped totally around their little finger.

Someone with the face of an angel, and the mind of a master criminal.

Some younger viewers may find what they are about to see disturbing.

SLURPING

You're out of juice.

I hear you, AmberActingHoneyBee,

but desperate times,

call for desperate measures.

Hey, it's Shari, and this is sneaking into the computer room before school.

-Oo, did you get the code?

-Yep.

-What's her cover story?

Working on the school magazine? Research for some homework?

Um, I just told Miss Johnson I needed it.

Wow, the teachers really love you.

Um, wouldn't it be easier to just give us the code?

Maybe, but knowledge is power, that's how school works.

She's right. Knowledge IS power. That's what I always say.

Yeah, but you've got to admit, it sounds way cooler when she says it.

OK, computer six, the one with the sticky LOL key.

How are you going to prove that Miss Johnson's haxed us?

We look to see if she was signed on to this computer

at the time of the murder.

-And how are you going to do that?

-Um...

Eve?

I don't know. When did I become tech support?

We'd need her school account password.

No, we don't. She left herself logged in. Noob!

Check her internet history, and see if she was on Dixi two Fridays ago.

-She watches a lot of cat videos.

-Who doesn't?

Wait, what's that?

It's not Dixi, it's an auction site.

I know, I just want to see what she's bidding on.

A vintage jacket. It's quite cool...

..for a teacher. I might outbid her.

That's cold.

Yeah, I know.

I don't understand. There's no Dixi on her history at all.

Not on the day of the murder, not before, not after, not ever!

I'm bored of this now. So, I'm out.

Well, thanks for getting us in.

Whatevs, just remember our deal. You owe me.

I want that video done this weekend.

Oh, we don't have to dress up as plasma elves though, do we?

Not saying that I won't(!)

-Are you sure it was this computer.

-As sure as we can be.

Then somebody saw who did it.

Who? How do you know?

CCTV!

The camera feed is on the network, but...

..I can't get it through Miss Johnson's account.

We need an admin password.

Na-ah, I'm not doing anything that can be traced back to me.

It's OK.

-I have an idea.

-You think you can get an admin password(?)

-Not exactly.

But I know someone who can.

It's Zane, isn't it?

Ah, ha!

-So, are you sure he's coming?

-Yeah, but don't wind him up again.

I didn't wind him up.

You did a little bit wind him up.

That was just a misunderstanding.

I still don't understand. Not really.

-We're looking at the CCTV footage...

-I didn't say I want to understand,

just don't make Zane quit the band again.

-It was hard enough to get him to play at the prom.

-Why?

He says no-one wants a date with someone who's going to

be on stage the whole time.

No undercover filming this time?

LAUGHS NERVOUSLY That was just a misunderstanding.

Isla says you need a camera. This one's state of the art.

No, no, I don't need a camera, it's about the CCTV.

CCTV is a kind of camera.

Shari needs an admin password to see the footage.

Tricky item. It'll cost you.

There's just a lot of surveillance, negotiations, expenses, bribes...

Oh, I don't really have any money on me,

but you'd be doing me a massive favour.

-Is that how you normally do your shopping?

-No...

I'd like to buy this, thanks. That'll be £10. Oh, no, I don't

have any actual money but, you'd be doing me a massive favour(!)

Do you take thank you cards?

-Come back when you've got the cash.

-Wait!

-How about a trade?

-Keep talking.

-Erm...

-Neither of you have dates for the prom.

-Isla!

No, that, that could work.

OK, so once I type in the password there's no backing out.

So, I get a date to prom, and you're buying all the drinks and snacks.

Yeah, I said it's a deal.

OK. There's the CCTV files. What day do you want?

Er, two weeks ago today, Friday.

OK. Ah, you're out of luck. That's already been erased.

Ah, the killer has struck again!

No. They only keep a week's worth at a time.

Aaaargh!

-But a deal's a deal, right?

-Yeah, yeah, I guess.

Hey. Look at this. There's still thumbnails in the index folder.

There's a frame from everyday used as a cover photo for each file.

It's not exactly the right time, but it's the right day.

Oh, it's too blurry. Can you enhance it?

What is this, CSI Dixi?

All right, then, make it bigger.

OK.

THEY GASP

No, it can't be!

But it is.

It's Zane!

Do you need a new pencil case?

An unlimited pass to Laser Maze?

Passwords to your teachers' e-mail accounts?

Just ask Zane. I can get you anything.

Zane, I need a pair of shin pads, a pack of 2B pencils

and a permission slip for the school trip.

I'm on it.

Seriously, use your brain, just ask Zane.
