In the name of Sivis Lau,

0:00:030:00:05

I command the Spirit Bondeah speak to me!

0:00:050:00:09

There's truth in the bones.

0:00:130:00:17

Ki moun ki la?

0:00:170:00:19

He's coming! A scarred man,

0:00:190:00:23

and Kisa ou vle?

0:00:230:00:24

No! He's a killer. He's killed before!

0:00:240:00:30

He will silence me!

0:00:310:00:33

Aksion tch kont la lawa!

0:00:340:00:39

Assassin!

0:00:390:00:42

I am to be murdered! I'm to be murdered.

0:00:420:00:48

I understand.

0:01:090:01:11

No-one is to touch anything. I want the room locked until we get there.

0:01:120:01:16

-Have we got any ice cubes?

-Sir?

-To go in front of the fans.

0:01:160:01:20

They're just pushing warm air around.

0:01:200:01:21

-We should go.

-Yep, good, good.

0:01:210:01:25

-What's going on?

-A body's been found.

0:01:300:01:33

-Where?

-Notre Dame School.

0:01:330:01:36

The school's closed, but I've left a message for the headmaster.

0:01:440:01:48

-Where is he?

-I don't know. He must have gone out.

0:01:480:01:50

Signs of rictus,

0:01:540:01:56

blood around the lips.

0:01:560:01:59

She's been poisoned.

0:01:590:02:01

I'm to be murdered. I'm...to be murdered.

0:02:030:02:08

Ah, Dr Hudson, my old school science teacher.

0:02:460:02:48

The years have improved him if anything.

0:02:480:02:51

So what was she drinking?

0:02:510:02:53

-Rum.

-So what's an old lady doing drinking rum in a school classroom?

0:02:530:02:57

Who was she drinking with? And where's the bottle?

0:02:570:03:00

If Mr Dunham hasn't changed, there might be one here.

0:03:000:03:03

-Mr Dunham?

-The school headmaster.

0:03:030:03:05

He used to take a quick shot while we were writing.

0:03:050:03:08

He thought we didn't see him. Here it is.

0:03:080:03:10

You went to this school?

0:03:100:03:12

Yes, If you want to commit the perfect murder, can't do better than a school science lab.

0:03:120:03:16

Poisons in that cupboard there and reference books and equipment here for mixing up recipes.

0:03:160:03:21

That's how you spent time at school, is it?

0:03:210:03:23

Planning the perfect murder?

0:03:230:03:26

Quite right too. So, what happened here?

0:03:260:03:30

-She was murdered.

-Well, you can have a point for stating the blindingly obvious, Dwayne,

0:03:300:03:35

but to bring someone to justice, we may need a little more.

0:03:350:03:37

She was murdered by a scarred man who's killed before and wanted to silence her.

0:03:370:03:43

-Voodoo?

-She said it, chief. I swear.

0:03:470:03:50

-Last night?

-After you'd been drinking?

0:03:500:03:52

I wasn't the only one there. She said she'd be murdered and that she saw it in the bones.

0:03:520:03:57

Well, that would be a first.

0:03:570:03:58

A victim that actually predicted her own murder.

0:03:580:04:01

Well, you know, there's more to life than life.

0:04:010:04:05

That doesn't even mean anything.

0:04:050:04:07

Did she say anything else?

0:04:070:04:09

-Just what I told you.

-That she'd be killed by a scarred man?

0:04:090:04:12

Would someone tell me what's going on?

0:04:120:04:14

I'm Nicholas Dunham, the headmaster here.

0:04:140:04:18

Good morning, Fidel.

0:04:180:04:20

Good morning, sir.

0:04:200:04:22

Angelique Morel. She was...is my mother-in-law. I'm widowed now.

0:04:300:04:37

-Do we know how she died?

-Well, we're really just beginning...

0:04:370:04:39

-She's been poisoned.

-What?

0:04:390:04:42

-Is this your rum?

-It's usually in my desk drawer.

0:04:420:04:45

Did you drink any of it with Angelique this morning?

0:04:450:04:47

-Don't be absurd.

-Well, it seems she was drinking with someone.

0:04:470:04:51

Well, she came to see me earlier, we talked briefly and then I left.

0:04:510:04:55

And when I did, that bottle was most definitely still in my desk.

0:04:550:04:58

-Sir?

-Yes?

0:04:580:05:00

-No, sorry, sir, not you, sir, but that sir, sir.

-Yes?

0:05:000:05:04

This glass, I can smell almonds.

0:05:040:05:07

Do you keep cyanide in your poisons cupboard?

0:05:070:05:10

Yes, but all dangerous chemicals and poisons are kept under lock and key here,

0:05:100:05:16

away from the children.

0:05:160:05:17

-How many keys are there?

-Just the one.

0:05:170:05:20

Mine.

0:05:200:05:21

So as you'll see, all the chemicals are here.

0:05:210:05:30

And yes. Here's the cyanide.

0:05:300:05:32

Don't touch! Dwayne,

0:05:320:05:34

-bag this bottle of cyanide, would you?

-Sir.

0:05:340:05:36

There's no way she could have been poisoned with that cyanide.

0:05:360:05:39

Well, let's find out, shall we?

0:05:390:05:41

After all, this is a school science lab. You're a scientist.

0:05:410:05:44

I'm sure you've heard of the Prussian blue test.

0:05:440:05:47

Of course.

0:05:490:05:50

Then perhaps you could find me the necessary chemicals.

0:05:500:05:54

Prussian blue is a colour discovered in the 18th century, and you only get it when you mix three...

0:05:540:06:00

-Who else has been in school today?

-Erm, Molly Kerr, my secretary,

0:06:000:06:03

Tom Hilton, the, er, the school handyman, and Father Charles Dean.

0:06:030:06:08

We first add iron sulphate...

0:06:080:06:11

-And who discovered the body?

-Father Charles.

0:06:110:06:13

We'll need to talk to them all.

0:06:130:06:15

-Of course.

-Because if there's any cyanide present, once we add the nitric acid...

0:06:150:06:21

..the liquid will turn...

0:06:240:06:26

Prussian blue. There was cyanide in this glass, headmaster.

0:06:310:06:36

Any idea how that might have happened?

0:06:360:06:38

Angelique just wanted to borrow some books from me.

0:06:410:06:44

Something to do with herbal remedies.

0:06:440:06:46

Did you know she practised voodoo?

0:06:460:06:47

Yes, well, we, we rarely discussed it, this is a Roman Catholic school, after all.

0:06:470:06:52

-How long did you talk to her for?

-Ten minutes, no longer.

0:06:520:06:56

Then I left her to it and went off to run some errands.

0:06:560:06:59

-You left her alone in your classroom?

-Well, I didn't know she was about to be murdered, did I?

0:06:590:07:04

And, er, these errands? What were they?

0:07:040:07:06

Well, I went to buy some fruit from the market.

0:07:070:07:11

And did you?

0:07:110:07:12

Well, I'd just arrived there when I got Molly's message to come back.

0:07:120:07:16

-Isn't that right, Miss Kerr?

-Yes.

0:07:160:07:18

-Molly Kerr.

-Sorry, er...

0:07:180:07:21

I've been the secretary for 20 years.

0:07:210:07:23

Did you see Angelique at all today, Miss Kerr?

0:07:230:07:26

Oh, yes, er, I let her in.

0:07:260:07:27

I took her straight to the headmaster's classroom, just as she requested.

0:07:290:07:34

Then I went to the office.

0:07:380:07:39

Which is where I was 20 minutes later. when Father Charles came to tell me he'd found her body.

0:07:390:07:44

So that's when I rang for an ambulance and called the police.

0:07:440:07:48

-I hope I did the right thing.

-No, that's a very thorough account.

0:07:490:07:54

Thank you.

0:07:540:07:55

So Angelique arrived just after 10.30.

0:07:580:08:00

The headmaster said he'd left her by 10.45

0:08:000:08:03

and she was found dead by 11.

0:08:030:08:05

It has to be the headmaster.

0:08:050:08:06

-He's got a scar.

-Oh, don't do this.

0:08:060:08:09

-But the prophecy...

-All right, that's enough!

0:08:090:08:11

No-one is to mention this prophecy again. We're detectives,

0:08:110:08:14

we deal in physical evidence and forensic science,

0:08:140:08:17

we do not stick pins into dolls and dance naked around a camp fire.

0:08:170:08:20

-That I'd like to see.

-Not going to happen.

0:08:200:08:22

-But it came true.

-No, it didn't!

0:08:220:08:25

The reason she's dead will contain means, motive and opportunity,

0:08:270:08:30

will have a killer who wanted her dead

0:08:300:08:32

and it will contain scientific fact and evidence

0:08:320:08:34

that will conform to known precedents.

0:08:340:08:36

It will not, I repeat not have anything to do with spirits or crystal balls.

0:08:360:08:40

Is that perfectly understood? Nobody, and I mean nobody, is to mention that word again.

0:08:400:08:45

-Which word?

-Voodoo.

-Oh.

0:08:450:08:47

You can't come here and dismiss a whole religion.

0:08:470:08:51

Creole beliefs have been part of the island for hundreds of years.

0:08:510:08:54

So were cholera and TB and the French,

0:08:540:08:56

but you managed to get rid of them in the end.

0:08:560:08:58

-I'm half French.

-There's no such thing as half French.

0:08:580:09:01

I want full statements detailing where everybody was between 10.30 and 11.30 this morning.

0:09:010:09:07

The headmaster said he went to market, find out if anybody saw him.

0:09:070:09:10

What about Father Charles?

0:09:100:09:12

-He found the body?

-No.

0:09:120:09:15

First I want to see what kind of woman predicts her own murder.

0:09:150:09:18

That's not strictly correct procedure.

0:09:180:09:22

Never had you down as a stickler, Camille.

0:09:220:09:24

Definitely the headmaster.

0:09:300:09:32

Hell, yes.

0:09:320:09:33

The headmaster has a link to the victim,

0:09:520:09:54

he has access to the poison cupboard.

0:09:540:09:57

It was his room, and he seems to be the only one with the opportunity.

0:09:570:10:00

Exactly, it's too easy.

0:10:000:10:02

Oh! Oh, that's what this is about, isn't it?

0:10:020:10:05

You don't like things to be easy, do you?

0:10:050:10:07

You want them to be difficult so we can all see how brilliant you are.

0:10:070:10:10

When even the murder victim gives me a description of the killer

0:10:100:10:14

and all the evidence also points at him, I feel like I'm being manipulated.

0:10:140:10:17

-So you ignore the truth?

-I don't know what the truth is yet.

0:10:170:10:20

Nicholas Dunham is a killer.

0:10:200:10:22

You can't possibly know that.

0:10:220:10:23

-Well, I do.

-How?

0:10:230:10:25

-Intuition.

-Oh, great.

0:10:250:10:27

Why don't we just go the whole hog, you know, I'll take my clothes off, you light the fire!

0:10:270:10:32

Oh, he's English.

0:10:320:10:35

-Good grief.

-Yeah.

0:10:450:10:49

Is that a lizard?

0:10:530:10:55

Don't get any ideas.

0:10:570:10:59

RUMBLING

0:11:000:11:03

Was that your stomach?

0:11:030:11:04

Why would Angelique go to the school for a book on herbal remedies

0:11:270:11:30

when she's got her own library?

0:11:300:11:33

This must be Angelique's daughter, Delilah.

0:11:360:11:39

Nicholas's dead wife.

0:11:390:11:41

These are pretty hardcore.

0:11:460:11:48

It's so sad.

0:11:480:11:51

Camille...

0:11:540:11:56

If she hated Nicholas Dunham enough to burn his photograph...

0:12:040:12:07

-Then why stop by for a chat?

-Exactly.

0:12:070:12:09

Then we need to talk to him again.

0:12:090:12:11

No. Now we talk to Father Charles. He found the body, Camille.

0:12:110:12:15

It's correct procedure, you'll appreciate that.

0:12:150:12:18

-I'll come with you.

-No, you stay here and process the evidence.

0:12:280:12:32

And make a start lifting the fingerprints.

0:12:320:12:34

I'll go down to the market

0:12:340:12:35

and see if anyone remembers seeing the headmaster. Then I suppose I'd better get after Tom Hilton.

0:12:350:12:41

Why do I always have to stay here while you have fun?

0:12:410:12:43

Because I'm the only person round here that looks this cool on a bike.

0:12:430:12:47

And there's no-one better at processing evidence than you.

0:12:480:12:51

No, seriously, Fidel, you never make a mistake, you're brilliant, but me?

0:12:510:12:58

I'm all fingers and thumbs, which is not good when you're lifting prints.

0:12:580:13:02

Is this about your headmaster?

0:13:050:13:06

He taught you for all those years and now it turns out he's a murderer.

0:13:060:13:10

OK, so putting aside the fact that it looks like it's him and the prophecy says it's him,

0:13:140:13:18

it doesn't necessarily have to be him.

0:13:180:13:21

-It could be Father Charles for all we know.

-Ah, but that's the thing.

0:13:210:13:25

Father Charles taught me RE for seven years.

0:13:250:13:27

He's one of the nicest people I know.

0:13:270:13:29

OK, then it's Molly Kerr.

0:13:290:13:32

OK, when I was at school, you'd go to Molly if you cut your knee or if you had a headache.

0:13:320:13:36

She's one of the nicest people I know.

0:13:360:13:38

I see a pattern here.

0:13:380:13:40

-All I can think is it must be Tom Hilton.

-Which is a bit of a problem.

0:13:400:13:44

-How come?

-Because Tom Hilton is one of the nicest people I know.

0:13:440:13:48

Look.

0:13:480:13:49

Whoever it is, Fidel, we'll catch them,

0:13:490:13:52

because that's what we do.

0:13:520:13:54

We catch killers.

0:13:540:13:56

And I look cool on bikes.

0:13:560:13:59

Father Charles?

0:14:110:14:12

Yes. I presume you want to ask me about Angelique.

0:14:190:14:25

Detective Inspector Richard Poole. We understand you found the body.

0:14:250:14:28

Yes. Poor woman. But she was old

0:14:280:14:30

and I think it's no secret to say her health was deteriorating.

0:14:300:14:33

You believe she died of natural causes?

0:14:330:14:35

-Didn't she?

-She was poisoned.

0:14:350:14:38

We're still trying to establish the, erm...

0:14:380:14:41

Can you tell us your movements today?

0:14:410:14:43

Well, I was in my office this morning writing a sermon.

0:14:430:14:46

And I sometimes join the Headmaster for coffee,

0:14:460:14:49

so just before 11 I headed towards his classroom.

0:14:490:14:52

Did you see anyone else?

0:14:550:14:56

I passed Tom Hilton, the caretaker, in the top corridor.

0:14:560:14:59

-Morning, Father.

-But when I got to the headmaster's classroom...

0:14:590:15:04

Yes?

0:15:040:15:06

Well, that's when I saw the body, just lying there.

0:15:060:15:10

I didn't know what to do. So I went and told Molly at once that I'd found the body.

0:15:130:15:18

Did you see where the caretaker was coming from?

0:15:180:15:21

-No.

-Could he have been coming from the science room?

0:15:210:15:25

I suppose so.

0:15:250:15:27

How well did you know Angelique, Father?

0:15:280:15:30

I think you can say we moved in different circles.

0:15:300:15:34

-But you knew she was Mr Dunham's mother-in-law?

-Yes.

0:15:340:15:37

-He's widowed now?

-Yes.

0:15:370:15:39

His wife passed some while ago.

0:15:390:15:41

-Do you know how she died?

-Yes, I believe it was suicide.

0:15:410:15:46

Very sad.

0:15:460:15:47

Is there anything else I can help you with?

0:15:490:15:51

Sure. And we're going to need a preliminary autopsy report as soon as you've got it, OK? Thank you.

0:15:530:16:01

Well, if I'm not arrested, then this is kidnapping.

0:16:010:16:04

Tom, how you doing?

0:16:040:16:05

Fidel? Boy, you've done some growing.

0:16:050:16:08

-Yes, sir.

-You hear that? "Sir!"

0:16:080:16:11

That's respect, which you might have had if you'd gone to school.

0:16:110:16:15

I went to school.

0:16:150:16:17

-Sometimes. Where's the chief?

-They've gone back to Notre Dame.

0:16:170:16:21

Fidel, he dragged me out of Juliana's, still half a drink on the bar.

0:16:210:16:25

-You shouldn't go running off, should you?

-I know my rights.

-And what are they?

0:16:250:16:29

That I'm allowed a phone call.

0:16:290:16:32

And a beer.

0:16:320:16:33

You know what I'm thinking?

0:16:390:16:41

-No.

-How can you say that?

0:16:410:16:42

Because I have never, at any time while I've been with you, known what you're thinking.

0:16:420:16:46

-Hmm. OK, first, Angelique must have known her killer.

-Agreed.

0:16:460:16:52

-Secondly, to predict her own murder, she either managed to be in contact with the spirit world...

-Or?

0:16:520:16:59

Or she feared her life was in danger somehow and this was her way of telling us.

0:16:590:17:02

Thank you. Finally a sensible explanation. Of course.

0:17:020:17:05

And thirdly, we should speak to my mother.

0:17:050:17:08

-OK, now you've lost me.

-I'm pretty sure she knew Angelique.

0:17:090:17:13

You must have heard the story?

0:17:230:17:25

-What story?

-It was a huge scandal.

0:17:250:17:28

Nicholas Dunham found out his wife Delilah was having an affair.

0:17:280:17:32

I think you need to hear this.

0:17:320:17:34

Must be 15 years ago now.

0:17:390:17:41

Nicholas discovered the affair and confronted her.

0:17:420:17:45

He begged her not to leave.

0:17:450:17:46

And did she?

0:17:460:17:48

No-one knows what really happened, but Delilah was such a sweet girl.

0:17:480:17:54

People say she was torn between Nicholas and her lover.

0:17:540:17:57

Both pulling her in different directions, until she couldn't cope any more.

0:17:570:18:02

Then one night, she went for a walk across the cliffs

0:18:020:18:07

and threw herself into the sea.

0:18:070:18:09

-Was her body ever found?

-No.

-RUMBLING

0:18:100:18:13

-Sorry.

-Was that your stomach again?

0:18:130:18:16

There's only so much mango and sweet potato a man can eat.

0:18:160:18:18

-Can I cook you something?

-Oh, well...

0:18:180:18:21

A crab salad? Squid?

0:18:210:18:24

Pouding?

0:18:240:18:25

-Er, I'm fine.

-Poor Angelique.

0:18:250:18:29

Dwayne saw her last night, he said she predicted her own murder.

0:18:290:18:34

-Voodoo?

-Please.

-You don't believe?

0:18:340:18:37

In people foretelling the future using chicken bones?

0:18:370:18:40

-I'm more Church of England.

-Because God is English?

0:18:400:18:42

Mmm, almost certainly.

0:18:420:18:44

Do you know anything about voodoo?

0:18:440:18:47

Yes!

0:18:470:18:48

It's all witch doctors and wild hair, you know,

0:18:510:18:54

sort of staring eyes.

0:18:540:18:56

It was born from slavery and colonisation,

0:18:560:18:59

but based on Christianity.

0:18:590:19:03

In voodoo, the prayers are Catholic.

0:19:030:19:05

They even worship the Catholic saints. Papa Legba holding the keys to the afterlife,

0:19:050:19:10

only because St Peter does.

0:19:100:19:12

Well, there you are. You learn something new every day.

0:19:120:19:14

Thanks for your help.

0:19:140:19:16

Come on, Camille. Lots to do.

0:19:160:19:17

-Bye, Maman.

-Bye.

0:19:200:19:22

-Oh, Delilah Dunham's lover, do you know who he was?

-Yes.

0:19:220:19:26

His name was Charlie Dean.

0:19:260:19:28

So Father Charles was having an affair with Delilah.

0:19:310:19:35

I wonder why he didn't tell us that.

0:19:350:19:37

Sir? If her body was never found,

0:19:370:19:40

wouldn't it be natural for Angelique to think that her daughter was maybe murdered?

0:19:400:19:44

You mean by Nicholas?

0:19:440:19:46

Well, that would explain why she was burning photographs of him.

0:19:460:19:49

And what if she could prove it, finally,

0:19:490:19:52

and she went to see him today to accuse him of murder?

0:19:520:19:54

-Oh, that's why she made the prophecy.

-Go on.

-It was her insurance policy.

0:19:540:19:58

If he killed her next we were to look for a scarred man who might have failed to silence her.

0:19:580:20:02

It's Nicholas. He's our killer.

0:20:020:20:05

Camille?

0:20:070:20:09

See if you can find the file on the disappearance of Delilah Dunham.

0:20:090:20:12

Who are you?

0:20:120:20:14

That's Tom Hilton, chief, the school caretaker.

0:20:140:20:17

-Afternoon.

-He's sitting in my chair.

0:20:170:20:19

-Out of the chief's chair.

-Why is he drinking beer?

0:20:190:20:22

-It's hot.

-Oh, really? Take him to an interview room.

0:20:220:20:26

Thanks. Oh, any news on the autopsy?

0:20:280:20:30

It's scheduled for 5pm this afternoon, they'll send a report.

0:20:300:20:33

-Background checks on the staff?

-Clean except Tom, he's been arrested for almost everything.

0:20:330:20:37

-Including murder, by any chance?

-No, sir.

0:20:370:20:40

Just, erm, theft, drunken behaviour,

0:20:400:20:43

receiving stolen goods, driving without a license and goat rustling.

0:20:430:20:47

Take his statement. Concentrate on who he saw at the school,

0:20:470:20:50

-particularly around the science lab.

-Yes, sir.

0:20:500:20:53

Er, chief, I asked around the market,

0:20:550:20:57

and no-one remembers Mr Dunham being there this morning.

0:20:570:21:00

He's a well-known figure. If he was there like he said he was,

0:21:000:21:04

someone should have seen him.

0:21:040:21:05

So he lied about his movements?

0:21:050:21:08

Oh, and look, my mother was right.

0:21:080:21:11

Delilah's body was never found.

0:21:110:21:15

Print it out, would you? Fidel.

0:21:150:21:17

What kind of headmaster was Mr Dunham?

0:21:170:21:19

Very strict. When he passed you,

0:21:190:21:21

it was "Stand up straight, hands behind your back."

0:21:210:21:23

Pompous? A stickler? Always had to have the last word?

0:21:230:21:26

-He loved putting people in detention.

-He's a killer.

0:21:260:21:30

Let's bring him in.

0:21:300:21:32

Mr Dunham, would you accompany us to the station?

0:21:400:21:44

-We've got a few questions we'd like to ask you.

-No, I wouldn't.

0:21:440:21:47

Well, we're asking politely, but we can do this the hard way.

0:21:470:21:50

Oh, don't be so melodramatic. If you'll excuse me, I have things to do.

0:21:500:21:53

In that case I'm arresting you for the murder of Angelique Morel.

0:21:530:21:57

-What?

-You do not have to say anything but it may harm your defence

0:21:570:22:00

if you do not mention something you later rely on in court.

0:22:000:22:03

You're making a serious mistake, young lady.

0:22:030:22:06

I'm innocent. Now take these things off.

0:22:060:22:08

Don't you know who I am?

0:22:080:22:10

-What?

-I was hoping to make it a bit less official.

0:22:130:22:16

-He wasn't co-operating.

-I'm glad you're not armed.

0:22:160:22:19

You'll regret this, young lady.

0:22:370:22:39

I believe I'm allowed a phone call.

0:22:390:22:42

OK, well, thank you.

0:22:480:22:50

That was the pathologist.

0:22:510:22:53

The preliminary report's in and Angelique definitely died of cyanide poisoning.

0:22:530:22:58

We've got the right man.

0:22:580:23:00

Can you prove to me that Nicholas killed Angelique Morel without using the words scarred, man or voodoo?

0:23:000:23:05

OK, what evidence did you recover from the scene?

0:23:050:23:09

Cyanide. what are these?

0:23:090:23:12

Fidel found them in the bin by the door of the lab.

0:23:120:23:15

Shard of glass from the sink in the lab.

0:23:170:23:19

If you wanted to kill someone, would you do it in your place of work?

0:23:190:23:22

The thought's crossed my mind.

0:23:220:23:25

Nicholas may well not have been honest with us,

0:23:270:23:29

which is why I was happy to bring him in,

0:23:290:23:31

but is he really stupid enough to carry out a murder in his own classroom,

0:23:310:23:35

-using poison from a cupboard only he has a key to?

-No, he isn't.

0:23:350:23:39

I've just got a phone call from Nicholas Dunham

0:23:420:23:45

saying that you've just arrested him for murder.

0:23:450:23:48

Please tell me that isn't true.

0:23:480:23:49

He carries a lot of influence on the island.

0:23:530:23:56

I hope any case you have against him is completely watertight.

0:23:560:24:01

The investigation's ongoing, sir.

0:24:010:24:03

You weren't at the market. We've asked. No-one remembers seeing you.

0:24:060:24:10

That's because I wasn't there.

0:24:140:24:17

-So you admit you lied?

-Yes.

0:24:170:24:20

And I'll show the commissioner where I was.

0:24:200:24:23

Thank you. If you were here, why did you lie?

0:24:340:24:37

What I was doing here was illegal,

0:24:370:24:39

and if you want, you can re-arrest me for theft but, er,

0:24:390:24:42

my duty is to my community

0:24:420:24:45

and I'll help them in whatever way I can.

0:24:450:24:47

What on earth were you doing in a nunnery that could count as theft?

0:24:470:24:51

It's not a nunnery.

0:24:510:24:53

Continue, mes enfants.

0:24:530:24:55

It's an orphanage.

0:24:550:24:57

The school board paid for some new computers

0:24:570:25:00

but the old ones work perfectly well, it's an over-indulgence.

0:25:000:25:03

So you brought the new ones here instead?

0:25:030:25:06

Yes. Though Tom did most of the donkey work.

0:25:060:25:09

What time was Angelique killed, Camille?

0:25:090:25:11

Just before 11, sir.

0:25:110:25:13

I'm sure the sisters will confirm that, er, I was here at least ten minutes before that.

0:25:130:25:19

In time for morning tea.

0:25:190:25:20

So to be clear, your alibi for the time of the murder

0:25:200:25:23

is that you were doing charity work in an orphanage, surrounded by nuns?

0:25:230:25:28

Yes.

0:25:280:25:30

That was humiliating.

0:25:340:25:36

I'm sorry, sir. Arresting Nicholas was my idea.

0:25:360:25:39

He brought it on himself by lying about where he was.

0:25:390:25:42

He's a very difficult man, he likes to play games.

0:25:420:25:46

I suggest you try not to get on the wrong side of him.

0:25:460:25:49

I was the investigating officer for his wife's disappearance many years ago.

0:25:490:25:53

And you concluded it was suicide?

0:25:530:25:55

We had little choice, the body was never found.

0:25:550:25:57

-You knew about the affair with Charles?

-Of course.

0:25:570:26:00

You didn't suspect foul play?

0:26:000:26:02

She vanished into thin air.

0:26:020:26:04

I even dug up Nicholas Dunham's patio.

0:26:040:26:07

He was building it just after his wife disappeared.

0:26:070:26:10

It's all in the file. In the end, the only thing that made sense

0:26:100:26:14

was that she'd carried out her threat

0:26:140:26:16

and threw herself into the sea.

0:26:160:26:18

So what was this headmaster like when you was there?

0:26:280:26:31

-Mr Dunham?

-Hmm.

-He was OK one minute,

0:26:310:26:34

but then he could turn, you know.

0:26:340:26:36

I remember I got a new pair of football boots.

0:26:360:26:39

It was my birthday, 14, I think.

0:26:390:26:41

I shined those boots.

0:26:410:26:43

Don't think I've ever been so proud of anything in my entire life.

0:26:430:26:47

When we had our first school match,

0:26:480:26:50

Mr Dunham came into the dressing room

0:26:500:26:52

and he saw everyone gathered around admiring my new boots.

0:26:520:26:56

Mr Dunham told me that I was being boastful and that was a bad thing.

0:26:560:27:00

And so he took my boots away from me.

0:27:000:27:02

-No!

-Yeah.

0:27:020:27:04

It's a shame we won't be locking him up any time soon.

0:27:040:27:07

Seems his alibi checked out, and get this,

0:27:070:27:11

he was with a bunch of nuns.

0:27:110:27:13

-Nuns?

-I know.

0:27:130:27:15

Don't ask.

0:27:150:27:16

You know they say poison is a woman's weapon?

0:27:200:27:22

Molly, the school secretary?

0:27:230:27:25

Could be.

0:27:250:27:27

I thought she was the nicest person you knew.

0:27:270:27:31

She...

0:27:310:27:33

THEY LAUGH

0:27:330:27:35

Why didn't you tell us about your relationship with Delilah Dunham, Father?

0:27:400:27:47

Well, it was 15 years ago now.

0:27:470:27:49

Delilah was a keen cyclist.

0:27:490:27:52

I was a younger member of the staff.

0:27:520:27:53

And one day I was at a junction in my car

0:27:530:27:56

and she slammed into me and she and she broke her arm in two places.

0:27:560:28:00

I visited her in hospital as often as I could

0:28:000:28:03

and we started having an affair.

0:28:030:28:05

When did her husband find out?

0:28:050:28:07

Oh, she couldn't bear the deception.

0:28:070:28:09

So one night she told him that she was leaving him.

0:28:090:28:12

He was heartbroken, well, of course, he had every right to be.

0:28:120:28:15

He begged her to stay.

0:28:150:28:17

And I am ashamed to say

0:28:170:28:19

that I put so much pressure on her.

0:28:190:28:21

I told her she had to leave him.

0:28:210:28:23

I gave her no way out.

0:28:230:28:26

Before she disappeared, did you know what she'd decided?

0:28:260:28:30

No, but she did say at one point that she felt like ending it all.

0:28:300:28:34

You believe she committed suicide?

0:28:340:28:36

The day after she vanished, I resigned my post and joined the seminary.

0:28:380:28:43

Now my life is my penance.

0:28:460:28:48

Your, erm...

0:28:540:28:57

friendship with Nicholas Dunham.

0:28:570:29:00

Isn't that a bit odd?

0:29:000:29:02

Well, we made our peace a long time ago.

0:29:020:29:06

He was destroyed by losing her,

0:29:060:29:08

we both were.

0:29:080:29:11

Did Angelique believe that Nicholas killed her daughter?

0:29:110:29:14

Yes, yes, she made no secret about it.

0:29:140:29:17

But you didn't.

0:29:170:29:19

-No.

-Can I ask why?

0:29:190:29:21

Nicholas is no killer.

0:29:210:29:23

Ah, yes, of course. As school Priest, you hear the Headmaster's confession, don't you?

0:29:250:29:30

I couldn't possibly say.

0:29:320:29:33

Erm, what are you doing?

0:29:430:29:46

I'm doing what it looks like.

0:29:460:29:48

I'm taking a break!

0:29:480:29:50

But we're so close to finishing.

0:29:500:29:52

Fidel, you've got to remember.

0:29:520:29:55

According to every time and efficiency study there's ever been,

0:29:550:29:58

five minute breaks every hour

0:29:580:30:00

can improve productivity within the workforce by up to 20 per cent!

0:30:000:30:03

Is that true?

0:30:030:30:05

I have no idea. Sounds good, though, doesn't it?

0:30:050:30:09

-You always do that.

-Do what?

0:30:110:30:13

That quick answer thing.

0:30:130:30:16

I've never been very good at that.

0:30:160:30:18

Sometimes the Inspector asks me a question and I just freeze.

0:30:180:30:21

It's like my brain refuses to give up any words.

0:30:210:30:24

And I know it might only be a second, but for me it feels like an hour.

0:30:240:30:28

Just standing there with my mouth open like...

0:30:280:30:31

How many times have I told you?

0:30:310:30:32

You need to loosen up a bit, man.

0:30:320:30:35

-That's what Juliette says.

-OK!

0:30:350:30:37

So if even your wife is telling you to loosen up,

0:30:370:30:40

you're in big trouble man.

0:30:400:30:41

Just relax, don't worry about things so much.

0:30:410:30:45

Life has a way of making things work out. Just trust in that.

0:30:450:30:49

Yeah.

0:30:520:30:54

-You're right.

-I know.

0:30:540:30:56

That's exactly what I'm gonna do.

0:30:580:31:00

Good.

0:31:000:31:02

-You know something.

-Hm?

0:31:060:31:09

-I don't think I put the lid back on the powder.

-Oh!

0:31:090:31:11

DOOR BUZZES

0:31:130:31:14

-What a sad story.

-I know.

0:31:160:31:19

You know, I'm surprised they had to dig up Nicholas's patio,

0:31:190:31:22

-it would have fallen apart anyway.

-What?

0:31:220:31:24

I've got a copy of his building supplies in the original file.

0:31:240:31:28

He's got the ratio all wrong, see?

0:31:280:31:30

Too much lime and not enough sand and cement.

0:31:300:31:32

-You're incredible, you know that?

-Thank you. I know.

0:31:320:31:36

He may be a Scientist, but he knows next to nothing about grouting.

0:31:360:31:41

-Why involve the Commissioner?

-What's that got to do with this?

0:31:420:31:45

He could've just taken us to the orphanage,

0:31:450:31:48

or phoned a solicitor or a lawyer like a normal person, but no...

0:31:480:31:50

Nicholas wanted us humiliated.

0:31:500:31:53

Why? To make us back off?

0:31:530:31:56

But he's got an alibi for the time of the murder,

0:31:560:31:59

what's he frightened of?

0:31:590:32:00

-What if he really is the murderer?

-Oh, great!

0:32:020:32:04

So when I think Nicholas is guilty and arrest him, you're not interested

0:32:040:32:08

but, the moment he proves he's innocent,

0:32:080:32:11

suddenly you're convinced he's guilty?

0:32:110:32:13

-Problem?

-Yes.

0:32:130:32:15

You are the most annoying man I've ever met.

0:32:150:32:18

Well, it's a very small island.

0:32:180:32:21

SHE SIGHS

0:32:210:32:22

Right, I need a hardware store, with a pet section if possible.

0:32:220:32:26

-Excuse me?

-Our headmaster is not the only one who can play games.

0:32:260:32:30

OK, Fidel, I'll pass it on.

0:32:370:32:40

What about Tom Hilton's statements?

0:32:400:32:42

Ah, OK.

0:32:440:32:46

OK, thanks.

0:32:460:32:48

You know, of all the things I thought we might need to solve this case,

0:32:480:32:51

a fish tank was not one of them.

0:32:510:32:53

Who was that?

0:32:530:32:54

-Fidel has finished dusting the available evidence for prints.

-Hang on, don't tell me.

0:32:540:32:59

The cyanide bottle from Nicholas' cupboard was covered in prints, but only his.

0:32:590:33:02

The same is true of the rum bottle and one of the shot glasses.

0:33:020:33:05

The other had his and Angelique's fingerprints. Step back.

0:33:050:33:09

Was there any point in checking?

0:33:090:33:11

Of course, but there's no surprise in it pointing towards Nicholas Dunham being the killer.

0:33:110:33:15

-What about Tom Hilton? What did he say?

-That he heard and saw nothing,

0:33:150:33:19

but he reckons he saw Angelique alive in Nicholas's classroom

0:33:190:33:22

-after Nicholas left for the orphanage.

-How very convenient for Nicholas.

0:33:220:33:26

So, did he kill her or not?

0:33:260:33:28

I'm hoping this fish tank will tell us.

0:33:280:33:30

-Gin and tonic.

-Thank you.

0:33:570:33:59

It's not for you.

0:34:110:34:13

What do you think?

0:34:560:34:58

I'm trying to work here, so you can stop looking at me like that.

0:35:320:35:36

You look like,

0:35:360:35:38

my mother, that is exactly how my mother looks at me.

0:35:380:35:41

Yes, I'm taking my vitamins.

0:35:440:35:46

Yes, I'm wrapping up warm.

0:35:460:35:50

Look, Mum, I'm fine, it's not as if I'm on the other side of the...

0:35:500:35:54

Oh, God, I'm on the other side of the world.

0:35:540:35:56

Oh, there's my car, yeah, I'm late for work.

0:35:560:35:59

What if there's been a murder or...

0:35:590:36:02

Yeah, got to go.

0:36:020:36:04

Yeah, sure. Yeah, yeah, till next time.

0:36:040:36:07

Bye.

0:36:090:36:10

PHONE HANGS UP

0:36:100:36:12

SHE KNOCKS

0:36:150:36:16

I heard voices.

0:36:190:36:20

You're early.

0:36:200:36:22

-Don't you get hot at night wearing all that?

-Yes.

0:36:250:36:29

Then you should sleep naked.

0:36:290:36:32

I do.

0:36:320:36:34

Oh? Shouldn't your lizard be on the inside?

0:36:380:36:41

It's not my lizard.

0:36:410:36:42

Then whose is it?

0:36:420:36:44

And what's this?

0:36:440:36:46

Oh.

0:36:460:36:47

It's a cyanoacrylate fumigation tank.

0:36:470:36:50

Oh, funny, cause it looks like a light bulb in a fish tank to me.

0:36:500:36:53

Well, that's where you're wrong - cos it's a light bulb in a fish tank, with superglue.

0:36:530:36:57

Or cyanoacrylate to give it it's proper name.

0:36:570:37:01

Still looks like a light-bulb in a fish tank.

0:37:010:37:05

The light-bulb heats the foil

0:37:050:37:07

which heats the superglue which evaporates.

0:37:070:37:09

And here's the clever bit once it becomes a gas,

0:37:090:37:12

the fumes will only stick to the fatty acids, amino acids

0:37:120:37:15

and proteins that you find in fingerprints.

0:37:150:37:18

Seriously?

0:37:180:37:20

Allowing you to reveal fingerprints on difficult surfaces,

0:37:200:37:23

such as the inside of latex gloves.

0:37:230:37:26

Fidel!

0:37:390:37:41

There are prints on the fingertips of these gloves.

0:37:410:37:46

See if you can find a match, will you?

0:37:460:37:48

Yes, sir.

0:37:480:37:50

OK, so our headmaster has an alibi

0:38:020:38:05

that includes orphans and nuns.

0:38:050:38:09

We have a heartbroken priest,

0:38:090:38:13

a caretaker with criminal tendencies

0:38:130:38:16

and a school secretary whose loyalty knows no bounds.

0:38:160:38:18

Yes, and don't forget the voodoo proph...

0:38:180:38:21

And then there's Delilah...

0:38:240:38:27

HE SIGHS

0:38:270:38:28

..the daughter, wife and lover who vanished into thin air.

0:38:280:38:31

But everything always leads back to our headmaster.

0:38:310:38:35

Do we arrest him again?

0:38:350:38:36

His call to the Commissioner was to intimidate us, get us to back off.

0:38:360:38:41

So...?

0:38:420:38:44

So, let's show him it hasn't worked.

0:38:470:38:50

Ah, yes, the patio.

0:39:120:39:15

Hello?!

0:39:170:39:18

What are you doing here?!

0:39:230:39:25

-We have some more questions.

-You dare to come here after yesterday?

0:39:250:39:30

I'm intrigued you never mentioned your wife's disappearance.

0:39:300:39:33

It was 15 years ago, it's irrelevant.

0:39:330:39:35

Surely we should be the judge of that.

0:39:350:39:38

We spoke to Father Charles yesterday, he told us what happened.

0:39:380:39:42

Oh, but you already knew that, didn't you?

0:39:420:39:44

It's very hot isn't it. Er, Perhaps Miss Kerr could bring us refreshments.

0:39:460:39:51

Lemonade would be fine.

0:39:510:39:52

Er, Molly and I...

0:39:560:39:58

No need to explain, really.

0:39:580:40:01

You have a beautiful view here.

0:40:020:40:05

-Yes, I have.

-Did you build that patio yourself?

-No.

0:40:050:40:08

-Oh, but it says in your file...

-No, the patio I built when my wife disappeared was,

0:40:080:40:12

as you know, dug up by the police shortly afterwards, and they found nothing.

0:40:120:40:16

When you were ordering your building supplies...

0:40:160:40:19

Don't play games with me, Inspector.

0:40:190:40:21

I think you'll find I'm slightly better at them than you are.

0:40:210:40:24

-Lemonade.

-Thank you, Miss Kerr.

-Thank you.

0:40:240:40:28

Why did Angelique come and see you yesterday?

0:40:300:40:33

-I told you, to borrow some books.

-We didn't find any reference books out in the classroom.

0:40:330:40:37

Then she must have put them away.

0:40:370:40:39

Or any evidence to suggest you're telling the truth.

0:40:390:40:42

-I beg your pardon?

-Angelique believed you murdered her daughter.

0:40:420:40:45

Yes, the ramblings of a mad old woman, no-one took her seriously.

0:40:450:40:49

-You believe your wife committed suicide.

-Obvious to anyone with half a brain.

0:40:490:40:54

We've been to Angelique Morel's house now.

0:40:540:40:58

We know exactly what she thought of you.

0:40:580:41:00

Yes, her popping by to borrow a book and share a glass of rum just doesn't ring true.

0:41:000:41:04

So we're going to be asking you the same questions,

0:41:040:41:07

over and over again...

0:41:070:41:09

..until you tell us the truth.

0:41:100:41:12

Very well.

0:41:180:41:19

She visited me yesterday to accuse me of murder.

0:41:190:41:22

Of killing my wife.

0:41:220:41:24

The spirits have spoken, murderer! Murderer! Confess!

0:41:260:41:30

'She said, I had to confess.'

0:41:300:41:33

Or I'd have a voodoo curse put on me that I'd never be able to break.

0:41:330:41:37

-Confess!

-Vielle.

0:41:390:41:41

You lost your temper with her?

0:41:440:41:45

I'm a headmaster, it was in my school, I think that should afford me some respect, don't you?

0:41:450:41:50

Surely she's accused you before. What was different about this time?

0:41:500:41:54

-I have no idea.

-Then what about evidence?

0:41:540:41:56

Did she have any proof to back up her claims?

0:41:560:41:58

Of course she didn't!

0:41:580:42:01

My Nicholas couldn't hurt anyone. He's not a killer.

0:42:010:42:04

What are we missing?

0:42:060:42:08

-He doesn't look very happy.

-The case isn't going very well.

0:42:080:42:11

I'm not invisible. I can hear you. Actually, maybe that's the problem. I'm invisible.

0:42:110:42:15

Why can't we find a motive? It shouldn't be hard. An old woman is killed, who benefits?

0:42:150:42:20

There's got to be, there's something we're not getting,

0:42:200:42:22

there's some key which if we could only identify it would unlock the whole case, I'm sure of it.

0:42:220:42:27

You know what my father used to say?

0:42:270:42:30

Oh, please let it not be homespun in any way.

0:42:300:42:32

If you can't find the right answer,

0:42:320:42:34

you've probably been asking the wrong question.

0:42:340:42:37

It's as if all the wonders of the universe were suddenly revealed.

0:42:370:42:41

Is he really not eating?

0:42:420:42:45

I haven't seen him eat since he got here.

0:42:450:42:47

Of course I eat, it's just there's a lot of Caribbean food in the Caribbean.

0:42:470:42:51

You can't solve crime on an empty stomach.

0:42:510:42:53

Fine then I'll...

0:42:530:42:56

HE CHOKES AND SPLUTTERS

0:42:560:42:59

HE COUGHS

0:42:590:43:02

-What the hell was that?!

-Rum, lime and ice, but mostly rum.

0:43:020:43:06

Lime?! I hate lime!

0:43:060:43:08

Oh, oh!

0:43:110:43:13

Nobody move!

0:43:130:43:14

No, it can't be.

0:43:160:43:19

Of course.

0:43:240:43:25

Sir! I have...

0:43:320:43:33

..I have the results of the latex gloves I found in the bin.

0:43:350:43:39

-I know who was wearing them.

-I haven't told you.

0:43:390:43:41

-I know. You don't need to.

-Oh, you know who the murderer is?

0:43:410:43:44

Gather everyone in Nicholas's classroom.

0:43:440:43:46

Oh, and the Commissioner, he's going to want to see this. Good work, team.

0:43:460:43:51

Thanks, Catherine, your father was right.

0:43:510:43:53

A rum cocktail was the answer.

0:43:530:43:55

I'd just been asking the wrong question.

0:43:550:43:59

This case has been impossible from the start.

0:44:060:44:08

A voodoo prediction that couldn't be true, evidence that pointed at only one man

0:44:080:44:13

and all this time this nagging sense that I was missing something.

0:44:130:44:16

Tom. My team have never believed you were a credible murder suspect and they were right.

0:44:160:44:21

You may have stolen a few computers, for charity,

0:44:210:44:23

-but you didn't kill Angelique, did you?

-No!

0:44:230:44:27

Any more than you, Father Charles. You discovered the body, but you're not a murderer, either.

0:44:270:44:31

But you did give us one crucial piece of information.

0:44:310:44:34

It's no secret to say her health was deteriorating.

0:44:340:44:38

You talked about Angelique as though she were already dying,

0:44:380:44:41

plenty of evidence of which could be found at her house.

0:44:410:44:44

'These are pretty hard core.' Isn't that right, father?

0:44:440:44:48

-I can't break the seal of the confessional.

-She came to confession?

0:44:480:44:51

She's dead, father. You'll be helping catch her killer.

0:44:510:44:55

She had severe heart disease.

0:44:550:44:57

The way she put it, she said she was dying of a broken heart.

0:44:570:45:00

So when I found the body, I just thought she'd had a coronary.

0:45:000:45:04

But when you told me, that she was murdered?

0:45:040:45:06

This was no coronary.

0:45:060:45:08

The pathologist's report is clear.

0:45:080:45:10

Angelique died from a fatal dose of cyanide.

0:45:100:45:15

Which leaves us only two suspects.

0:45:150:45:18

Let's take a moment to consider Angelique's voodoo prophecy.

0:45:180:45:21

Oh, you don't believe that claptrap, do you?

0:45:210:45:23

Her warning pointed the finger of suspicion at you, Nicholas, the scarred man.

0:45:230:45:27

It's obvious when you think, this is your classroom,

0:45:270:45:30

your poisons, only you could have killed her.

0:45:300:45:32

But you know where I was!

0:45:320:45:34

The dream alibi, orphans and nuns no less.

0:45:340:45:38

You could have killed her before you left, then begged Tom to lie about seeing her alone.

0:45:380:45:42

Cos that's what you do, Headmaster. You demand the loyalty and the respect of others.

0:45:420:45:46

-Just a minute!

-Then it struck me.

0:45:460:45:48

Everything about Angelique's death was constructed to frame you for her murder.

0:45:480:45:52

You've been set up, Mr Dunham, from the start.

0:45:520:45:54

You didn't kill Angelique Morel.

0:45:540:45:56

And seeing as we know that Tom didn't kill her

0:45:560:45:59

and Father Charles didn't kill her and now you didn't kill her

0:45:590:46:03

that leaves only you, Miss Kerr.

0:46:030:46:05

The perfect secretary.

0:46:050:46:06

The person who's always there to pick up the pieces.

0:46:060:46:09

I'm sure you could have acquired the key to the poison cupboard at any time

0:46:090:46:13

-and you knew where he kept his stash of rum.

-Why would I kill Angelique?

0:46:130:46:16

And there we have it again - why?

0:46:160:46:19

-Don't worry, Miss Kerr, you didn't kill Angelique any more than the other three did.

-Then who?

0:46:190:46:24

The voodoo prophecy was the key after all.

0:46:240:46:27

There is only one way that Angelique could have known

0:46:270:46:30

she'd be murdered within 24 hours of her prophecy

0:46:300:46:32

and that all the evidence would point at Mr Dunham.

0:46:320:46:36

It's clever, isn't it?

0:46:390:46:41

Who killed her?

0:46:410:46:44

Camille?

0:46:440:46:45

-It was Angelique.

-What?

0:46:480:46:50

She killed herself, to frame Nicholas for her murder from beyond the grave.

0:46:500:46:54

It's like Father Charles said, Angelique knew she was dying.

0:46:540:46:59

At least this way her death would have some meaning.

0:46:590:47:02

'She knew Dwayne was a police officer.

0:47:020:47:05

'And she knew that when she made her prediction,

0:47:050:47:08

'she was telling the Police who to suspect.'

0:47:080:47:11

Yes, but luckily I didn't fall for it.

0:47:110:47:14

But seeing as she couldn't get into the poisons cupboard,

0:47:170:47:20

how did she get hold of the cyanide that killed her?

0:47:200:47:22

You were right, Headmaster, about there being no poisons missing from the cupboard.

0:47:220:47:26

You see she brought her own.

0:47:260:47:28

Angelique studied herbal remedies, there wasn't a plant on the island

0:47:300:47:34

she didn't know and understand the properties of, including one specific variety found at her house.

0:47:340:47:41

Cassava.

0:47:470:47:48

-Which if you boil and drain off the liquid...

-Gives you cyanide.

0:47:480:47:51

Her plan was simple. She laced her own rum with cyanide

0:47:550:47:59

then replaced the bottle in the drawer knowing that Nicholas' prints would be on everything.

0:47:590:48:03

That's why we found a shard of glass in the sink

0:48:030:48:06

cos that's how she disposed of the vial.

0:48:060:48:08

Can you prove any of this?

0:48:100:48:12

Fidel found some latex gloves in the waste bin there

0:48:120:48:14

-with only Angelique's fingerprints inside them. Is that right?

-Yes.

0:48:140:48:18

So, with the scene set to look like murder, all she had to do now was provide a corpse.

0:48:210:48:25

Her own.

0:48:270:48:28

Then, Angelique wasn't murdered?

0:49:010:49:03

No. Her death was tragic,

0:49:030:49:05

criminal intent, but it was suicide, that's all.

0:49:050:49:08

-Poor woman.

-So that's it, that's what you're saying?

0:49:080:49:12

-We're free to go?

-Absolutely, you're free to go. Thank you for your co-operation.

0:49:120:49:16

No, thank you, Detective Inspector - thank you for your discretion.

0:49:160:49:19

Apart from you, Headmaster. I'm arresting you for murder.

0:49:190:49:22

But you just said that she committed suicide!

0:49:220:49:25

Not of Angelique, of your wife, Delilah.

0:49:250:49:27

-You can't...

-She believed you'd murdered her daughter.

0:49:270:49:29

-She was mad!

-Driven mad, she knew you killed her daughter but couldn't prove it.

0:49:290:49:33

But I'm innocent! Take these damn things off!

0:49:330:49:36

Leave him alone, he went through this -

0:49:360:49:37

you'll never prove anybody killed that stupid woman!

0:49:370:49:40

Ah! But that's just the thing, I can.

0:49:400:49:42

You see anybody can commit murder,

0:49:420:49:44

murder's the easy part.

0:49:440:49:46

But how to dispose of the body?

0:49:460:49:49

That's where most murderers fail - how they get caught.

0:49:490:49:51

You see the breakthrough came when I was drinking a local cocktail.

0:49:510:49:54

Just rum, lime and ice, but it tasted like paint-stripper.

0:49:540:49:58

Maybe the recipe was wrong but, er, how can it be?

0:49:580:50:01

The ingredients are so simple.

0:50:010:50:02

Just as they were for that patio you built all those years ago.

0:50:020:50:05

You see sand and cement,

0:50:050:50:07

they were fine, but there was something you'd ordered much too much of, wasn't there? Lime.

0:50:070:50:11

So what did you do with all those kilograms of lime you had spare?

0:50:110:50:15

Because it's a powdered alkaline metal, isn't it?

0:50:150:50:18

If you add water to it you get calcium-hydroxide...

0:50:180:50:20

better known as slaked lime or quicklime.

0:50:200:50:23

And quicklime is capable of dissolving the flesh

0:50:230:50:26

off human bones in a matter of days.

0:50:260:50:29

I return to my original question -

0:50:290:50:31

how do you dispose of a human body?

0:50:310:50:33

Well, if you're a Science teacher. A headmaster who demands loyalty, demands respect.

0:50:330:50:38

Someone who likes humiliating police officers in front of their superiors?

0:50:380:50:42

Then maybe you don't dispose of it...

0:50:420:50:46

maybe you display it.

0:50:460:50:48

Pride of place...

0:50:480:50:50

in your classroom.

0:50:500:50:52

You've been teaching in this room gloating over her, for the last 15 years.

0:50:540:50:58

-But I didn't kill her!

-Lies!

0:50:580:51:00

Molly, Molly, believe me.

0:51:000:51:02

I'm going to make a prophecy now,

0:51:020:51:04

like poor, sweet, deluded Angelique.

0:51:040:51:07

But mine will come true, because it's not based on faith,

0:51:070:51:10

it's based on your subject, Science.

0:51:100:51:13

Look Father, I'm sorry to do this to you, but all those years ago, when Delilah had her bicycle accident,

0:51:130:51:19

she broke her arm in two places.

0:51:190:51:20

Do you remember which bones?

0:51:200:51:23

It was the humerus and the radius.

0:51:230:51:27

Angelique hoped that her death would put her daughter's killer behind bars

0:51:350:51:39

and here's my prediction, it will.

0:51:390:51:42

Because we'll be able to use Angelique's DNA to prove that these

0:51:420:51:45

are the mortal remains of her daughter, Delilah.

0:51:450:51:48

I told you she'd never leave me for you.

0:51:480:51:51

All right, that's enough!

0:51:520:51:54

Fidel, perhaps you'd like to take Mr Dunham into detention?

0:51:540:51:58

Yes, sir.

0:51:580:52:00

Well, the prophecy was right in one respect.

0:52:090:52:12

The truth was in the bones after all.

0:52:120:52:14

-So seeing as you're now into prophecies, how about I make one I know will come true?

-Go on.

0:52:210:52:26

If I ask you out for a drink with me and the team tonight, you'll refuse to come.

0:52:260:52:30

Well, you're wrong. I'd love to do that.

0:52:300:52:33

Unfortunately I've got an errand to run.

0:52:330:52:36

You know, er, sorry, a dinner to prepare.

0:52:360:52:38

So maybe we could all do something together, some other time?

0:52:380:52:42

DWAYNE: Hey, what's up?

0:52:530:52:55

Poor Angelique.

0:52:560:52:59

That she'd do that?

0:52:590:53:01

She got her man in the end, though.

0:53:010:53:03

Yeah, I suppose we should be grateful

0:53:030:53:05

we got to the bottom of her prophecy.

0:53:050:53:08

It wasn't true.

0:53:080:53:09

She couldn't have known the truth was in the bones. So where did that bit come from?

0:53:090:53:13

It's just a phrase.

0:53:130:53:15

What's that?

0:53:150:53:17

Go on, go ahead, open it.

0:53:180:53:22

Go on...

0:53:220:53:23

When you have your baby, he's going to need a pair of football boots.

0:53:320:53:36

Thank you, Dwayne.

0:53:360:53:38

Or little girl,

0:53:380:53:40

whatever you're going to have, the point being,

0:53:400:53:43

whenever they need some boots, they've got some

0:53:430:53:46

and they're brand new.

0:53:460:53:48

Then how about, this one?

0:53:590:54:03

Oh, come on, this one claims to be "as good as it looks",

0:54:070:54:10

which is a startling slogan, considering how it looks.

0:54:100:54:14

If eight out of ten cats have a preference, can't one lizard?

0:54:160:54:20

< Ah?

0:54:210:54:22

So that's what you meant when you said you had dinner to prepare.

0:54:260:54:30

You know I said I never know what you're thinking?

0:54:300:54:32

-Yeah?

-I know what you're thinking.

0:54:320:54:34

You haven't the first idea.

0:54:340:54:38

Can I help you, Detective Sergeant?

0:54:380:54:40

Yes, my mother's cooking you dinner tonight

0:54:400:54:43

to celebrate catching Delilah's killer

0:54:430:54:45

for which there's a lot of people on this island who are grateful.

0:54:450:54:49

So, she says you can't refuse as she's preparing you an English feast of roast beef...

0:54:490:54:55

Oh, hang on, I wrote it down.

0:54:570:55:00

Erm, "York-shire pudding,

0:55:000:55:02

"roast potatoes and, er, horse-radish sauce."

0:55:020:55:06

You had me at roast beef.

0:55:070:55:09

INDISTINCT CHATTER

0:55:310:55:34

LAUGHTER AND CHEERING

0:55:340:55:38

So lucky! That's amazing, look!

0:55:400:55:44

Father...

0:55:440:55:45

For everything thy goodness sends,

0:55:510:55:54

Father in Heaven, we thank thee. Amen.

0:55:540:55:59

And to Papa Legba and Angelique.

0:56:010:56:05

And Delilah.

0:56:050:56:07

Now come on, this food won't eat itself!

0:56:090:56:13

Is this, is this what I think it is?

0:56:130:56:15

Oh, look at that!

0:56:170:56:18

Well, this is the, er, the vital ingredient...

0:56:200:56:22

CHATTER

0:56:250:56:29

It's good? Yes.

0:56:290:56:32

The seal of approval!

0:56:320:56:33

-Right, cheers everybody.

-Cheers.

-Cheers.
