0:00:02 > 0:00:05'The stations are going to take an almighty battering tonight.

0:00:05 > 0:00:08'So take your observations, then carry out a full site check.

0:00:08 > 0:00:10'Secure everything.'

0:00:10 > 0:00:14I'll go north. Jennifer, you're east.

0:00:16 > 0:00:17Leo, west.

0:00:19 > 0:00:20Amber, south for you.

0:00:22 > 0:00:24And Damon, you're central.

0:00:26 > 0:00:28I want the instruments photographed as back-up

0:00:28 > 0:00:29once you've taken the readings.

0:00:29 > 0:00:32These conditions may never come round again so let's get this right.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35Once you've got the stats, get yourselves home.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37We'll collate everything tomorrow. Stay safe. OK?

0:00:41 > 0:00:43Damon?

0:00:43 > 0:00:44Can we swap?

0:00:44 > 0:00:45What for?

0:00:45 > 0:00:47I've just got something to do. I need to be here.

0:00:49 > 0:00:50Please?

0:01:24 > 0:01:26TWIG SNAPS

0:01:33 > 0:01:36RADIO: 'Latest predictions suggest Hurricane Irma will make land

0:01:36 > 0:01:38'around seven o'clock this evening.'

0:01:38 > 0:01:42Yes, yes, yes, we get it. There's going to be a storm.

0:01:42 > 0:01:43He's definitely scared.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45It's his first hurricane.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48Scared? I survived '87.

0:01:48 > 0:01:50You survived 87 hurricanes?

0:01:50 > 0:01:54No. 1987. Hmm? The storm of the century?

0:01:54 > 0:01:57I tell you, the roof of my dad's shed was torn off.

0:01:57 > 0:02:02Tomato pots and bird feeders strewn across the lawn. Utter carnage.

0:02:14 > 0:02:15Oh, my God.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22Come on, come on!

0:02:24 > 0:02:25Hello?!

0:02:58 > 0:03:03I'm just saying, if it were a real hurricane, it would have had a name.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05There were floods. Ancient trees were felled.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07Did it have a name or not?

0:03:07 > 0:03:10Yes! It did. It was, it was called the Fish.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13The Michael Fish Hurricane. Give me the hammer, come on.

0:03:13 > 0:03:17Boarding up will have to wait. There's been a murder.

0:03:21 > 0:03:26Leo Downs. 26. Staff researcher here at the meteorology centre.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31This debris. Very spread out, isn't it?

0:03:34 > 0:03:36There's something not quite right.

0:03:36 > 0:03:41OK, so Leo Downs is recording meteorology data,

0:03:41 > 0:03:44the killer arrives, there's a fight.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46A big fight, the place is a mess.

0:03:46 > 0:03:48Can we be sure they were fighting?

0:03:48 > 0:03:49They must have been.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52And yet there are no strained seams on his clothing.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54In fact no damage to the clothing of any kind,

0:03:54 > 0:03:56no abrasions to the knuckles.

0:03:58 > 0:04:00Hang on, this is north, right?

0:04:02 > 0:04:03Er, why?

0:04:03 > 0:04:05So the debris lies to the south of the Stevenson box.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08OK, so the door was opened, they fight,

0:04:08 > 0:04:10crash into it and stuff flies out.

0:04:10 > 0:04:12Yeah, but the door on a Stevenson box always faces north.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14Does it?

0:04:14 > 0:04:17To stop direct sunlight hitting the thermometer.

0:04:17 > 0:04:21There's no way the instruments could have accidentally fallen like this.

0:04:23 > 0:04:24So it's been staged?

0:04:31 > 0:04:35If we came to this exact scene, tomorrow, what would you think?

0:04:35 > 0:04:38I'd think...

0:04:38 > 0:04:40I'd think he'd been caught by the hurricane.

0:04:40 > 0:04:43Yeah, there'd be leaves, branches everywhere.

0:04:43 > 0:04:45The blood on the pole would have been cleansed.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48I think this would look very much like a tragic accident.

0:04:48 > 0:04:52So we've found the body before it was intended to be found?

0:04:52 > 0:04:57Whoever did this sought to make Hurricane Irma the perpetrator

0:04:57 > 0:04:59and concealer of the crime.

0:05:00 > 0:05:04We're looking for someone with a sharp and devious mind, Camille.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06Any witnesses?

0:05:06 > 0:05:07Good luck with that.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10That's the dean of the university, Judy Hearst.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13She e-mailed everybody last night telling them to stay away today.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16There's usually 30-odd people around.

0:05:16 > 0:05:19She and Mr Downs are the only people on site.

0:05:19 > 0:05:20And she found the body?

0:05:20 > 0:05:21Yes, Sir.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24So, if she's the only one here,

0:05:24 > 0:05:27then maybe her finding the body is a double bluff and she's our killer.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30A reasonable theory, but rather annoyingly,

0:05:30 > 0:05:32she's the one person who couldn't have done it.

0:05:32 > 0:05:34How can you know that?

0:05:34 > 0:05:37Because if the killer wanted the hurricane to conceal the murder,

0:05:37 > 0:05:41the last thing you'd do is call the police before the hurricane hit.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Yes?

0:05:45 > 0:05:47I spoke to the team yesterday.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49They said the hurricane was powering up,

0:05:49 > 0:05:52so I took the decision to close the unit.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55But if the unit was closed, why was Mr Downs here?

0:05:55 > 0:05:58He's part of a small team that take daily observations.

0:05:58 > 0:06:02The meteorology unit have five weather stations.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05One here and four at the north, south, east and west points

0:06:05 > 0:06:09of the island. One member of the team goes to each.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12So there would have been four other people here earlier this morning?

0:06:12 > 0:06:13Yes.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15Their names, please?

0:06:15 > 0:06:18Professor Adam King. Jennifer Cheung.

0:06:18 > 0:06:21Amber Collins. And Damon Ryan.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Adam will be devastated.

0:06:23 > 0:06:27Well, everyone will of course, it's just that Professor King

0:06:27 > 0:06:29had taken young Leo under his wing, so to speak.

0:06:31 > 0:06:35So, apart from these four people, is it possible that anyone else

0:06:35 > 0:06:39could have gained access to the station where Mr Downs was killed?

0:06:39 > 0:06:42I don't think so. The entrance gates were locked when I arrived.

0:06:42 > 0:06:46So you came to a closed department knowing a hurricane was approaching.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48Why?

0:06:48 > 0:06:51Leo wanted to see me. I got a message.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55He left it late last night.

0:06:58 > 0:06:59'Hi, it's Leo Downs.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01'There's something I need to tell you.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03'It's really serious and I don't know who to tell,

0:07:03 > 0:07:07'and well, it could blow the whole department apart.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09'Look, I'm in for observations tomorrow.

0:07:09 > 0:07:12'If you meet me at noon, I'll explain. OK. Bye.'

0:07:13 > 0:07:17I picked it up this morning and caught the first ferry over.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19Have you any idea what the meeting was about,

0:07:19 > 0:07:21or what he was referring to?

0:07:21 > 0:07:22No.

0:07:39 > 0:07:44Right, so he arranged a meeting that "would blow the department apart".

0:07:44 > 0:07:47And half an hour before that meeting, he's killed.

0:07:47 > 0:07:50The dean's adamant she has no idea why Leo wanted to see her today?

0:07:50 > 0:07:51No.

0:07:51 > 0:07:52Fidel?

0:07:54 > 0:07:58Process this for me, would you? I found it in the grounds.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00A rubber duck?

0:08:00 > 0:08:02May be unrelated, but check it for fingerprints anyway.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04Yes, sir.

0:08:04 > 0:08:07So these four people were the last ones to see Leo Downs alive.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09Let's go and talk to them.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12I saw an ambulance. Is everything all right?

0:08:12 > 0:08:13Professor King, I presume?

0:08:17 > 0:08:19I understand you and Leo were close.

0:08:23 > 0:08:26Well, his father died just under a year ago.

0:08:26 > 0:08:30He lost his way a little. We all did what we could.

0:08:30 > 0:08:33Some of the others resented that I spent that much time with him,

0:08:33 > 0:08:35but it was the least I could do in the circumstances.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38Then would you say he had enemies here?

0:08:38 > 0:08:41I wouldn't describe him as the most popular member of the unit.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43He tended to keep himself to himself.

0:08:43 > 0:08:47What about the rest of the group? You mentioned some resentment.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Were there any rivalries, perhaps?

0:08:49 > 0:08:52Well, there's... There's Jennifer.

0:08:52 > 0:08:53Very ambitious.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56She saw Leo as competition.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58Did you speak to him this morning?

0:08:58 > 0:09:00Not really, might have said hello.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03He was still sulking because I'd got second author

0:09:03 > 0:09:04on the professor's new paper.

0:09:05 > 0:09:09Erm, I'm sorry, what does "second author" mean?

0:09:09 > 0:09:12It's the credit you get on academic papers.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15The professor always goes first and the researchers come after.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17The higher you are, the more you're respected.

0:09:17 > 0:09:21But Leo Downs thought he should be second author on this paper?

0:09:21 > 0:09:24That's just how he was, teacher's little pet.

0:09:24 > 0:09:26He moaned about everything.

0:09:26 > 0:09:30Then there's Damon. Leo's roommate. Rather a strange one, Damon.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32Not very strong on people skills.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34I couldn't stand the little creep.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36Excuse me?

0:09:36 > 0:09:39We had nothing in common. He was always brown-nosing King.

0:09:39 > 0:09:43And he was into nerd stuff. Comic books. Conspiracy theories.

0:09:43 > 0:09:44I mean, the guy was 26.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Come on, grow up, you speccy loser.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49And finally Amber.

0:09:49 > 0:09:52She's sensitive, shall we say.

0:09:52 > 0:09:56She and Leo were in a relationship until quite recently, I believe.

0:09:56 > 0:10:00He dumped me. Said he wanted to concentrate on his work,

0:10:00 > 0:10:04which was, like, so disrespectful.

0:10:04 > 0:10:07I don't know why he had to be with Professor King all the time,

0:10:07 > 0:10:09I mean, I could've helped him.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12I already bought him some books that he said he didn't have.

0:10:12 > 0:10:16That doesn't sound like a person who would stop you doing your work, does it?

0:10:16 > 0:10:17No.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19He just made excuses all the time, like saying

0:10:19 > 0:10:23he couldn't work properly with me sitting there watching him.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26He said it was unnerving, me staring at him,

0:10:26 > 0:10:29but you know, it's not like I was making a noise or anything.

0:10:29 > 0:10:34I just liked being round him, I loved him.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36I mean, you don't have sex with people you don't love, do you?

0:10:39 > 0:10:42So when Mr Downs' body was discovered at 11.40,

0:10:42 > 0:10:44all four of you were at your respective weather stations,

0:10:44 > 0:10:45taking measurements?

0:10:45 > 0:10:48Yes, we log data and photograph everything.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51And all four weather stations are an equal distance away from the unit?

0:10:51 > 0:10:54Yes. All about a 20-minute drive.

0:10:54 > 0:10:55Right, so you left here at?

0:10:55 > 0:10:5611.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58Returning to the lodgings by?

0:10:58 > 0:10:5912.

0:11:02 > 0:11:04You're published?

0:11:04 > 0:11:07Not quite. End of the month. That's a proof copy.

0:11:07 > 0:11:08What's the subject?

0:11:08 > 0:11:10An analysis of hurricane prediction methodology.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13Ah! Tell me, is this Irma really going to be the end of the world

0:11:13 > 0:11:14everyone says it is?

0:11:14 > 0:11:17Well, it's shaping up to be pretty mighty.

0:11:17 > 0:11:18I don't wish to be disrespectful,

0:11:18 > 0:11:21but is this really the place for a published professor?

0:11:21 > 0:11:25Well, maybe not forever. The buzz on the book has been good.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28I've had enquiries from Yale and Oxford to visit.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31But this place has been good for me.

0:11:31 > 0:11:35When I took the position, I didn't really know where I was going.

0:11:35 > 0:11:39A change of scenery, new challenges, everything's really opened up.

0:11:39 > 0:11:43You've made a similar move, right? You must feel the same?

0:11:43 > 0:11:44Not really.

0:11:44 > 0:11:48You know, I used to be a demon proof-reader at college.

0:11:48 > 0:11:52Spelling. Punctuation. Grammar. I hunted those blighters down for fun.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55Well, take one. If you can spot anything I'd be grateful. Drink?

0:11:55 > 0:11:58Er, no, thank you.

0:11:58 > 0:11:59Can I ask?

0:11:59 > 0:12:02Did Mr Downs mention anything to you about an appointment he'd made

0:12:02 > 0:12:04with the dean for today?

0:12:05 > 0:12:07No, he didn't.

0:12:07 > 0:12:09Why on earth would he want to see the dean?

0:12:12 > 0:12:15Ah, police manual. A cracking read.

0:12:15 > 0:12:19If I was to read that thing, I'd fall asleep on the contents page.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21Dwayne, you're supposed to have read it cover to cover.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25Of course, sir. I have read it.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27Big day tomorrow. Sergeant's exam.

0:12:27 > 0:12:28Yes, please don't remind me.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30You'll breeze it. Won't he, sir?

0:12:30 > 0:12:35No idea. If he's worked hard enough, it's possible.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40So...

0:12:40 > 0:12:43the killer intended the murder to be disguised

0:12:43 > 0:12:45by the impending hurricane.

0:12:45 > 0:12:49Someone who knew where it would hit and when.

0:12:49 > 0:12:50A meteorologist.

0:12:50 > 0:12:51Exactly.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53But we have a problem.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56All four of them,

0:12:56 > 0:13:02Professor King, Jennifer Cheung, Amber Collins and Damon Ryan,

0:13:02 > 0:13:04all set off at exactly 11am.

0:13:06 > 0:13:09They drove for around 20 minutes to their respective weather stations

0:13:09 > 0:13:11and took readings.

0:13:11 > 0:13:15They all arrived back around noon and as the body was found at 11.40,

0:13:15 > 0:13:18it means they were all accounted for when the murder took place.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20Yeah, very convenient.

0:13:20 > 0:13:24Leo Downs swapped his allocated weather station with Damon Ryan

0:13:24 > 0:13:26in order to stay at the unit.

0:13:26 > 0:13:28Damon, can we swap? I need to be here.

0:13:28 > 0:13:32We assume, because of his meeting with the dean.

0:13:32 > 0:13:34Yes.

0:13:34 > 0:13:37And we know the others went to their respective stations because?

0:13:37 > 0:13:38We have their completed data charts

0:13:38 > 0:13:41and they photographed the instruments as a back-up.

0:13:41 > 0:13:42Ah!

0:13:42 > 0:13:48The cameras are date and time-coded and today's photographic readings

0:13:48 > 0:13:52were all taken between 11.25 and 11.35.

0:13:52 > 0:13:55So if the time codes are correct, they all have an alibi.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58But the killer could have changed the time code on the camera.

0:13:58 > 0:13:59Yeah, but even if they did,

0:13:59 > 0:14:01we have no way of knowing which one was changed,

0:14:01 > 0:14:03so it doesn't help us.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06Also we didn't find a camera at the murder scene.

0:14:06 > 0:14:07No, we didn't.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09Yet we know the victim had one,

0:14:09 > 0:14:11because in Damon Ryan's statement,

0:14:11 > 0:14:15he said he gave him his clipboard and camera.

0:14:15 > 0:14:16So where is it?

0:14:16 > 0:14:19If the murderer took it, why? Was it important enough to kill for?

0:14:19 > 0:14:21Sir, the fingerprint reports are back.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24Samples taken from the weather station equipment confirmed matches

0:14:24 > 0:14:26for all five members of the unit.

0:14:26 > 0:14:29The victim, King, Cheung, Collins and Ryan.

0:14:29 > 0:14:31We'd expect them to be there.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33And the murder weapon was wiped clean.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36And the toy duck had several clean prints, all matching the victim.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38So it did belong to him.

0:14:39 > 0:14:40OK.

0:14:40 > 0:14:43Doctored camera or not, we need to completely rule out

0:14:43 > 0:14:46the possibility that one of our four suspects could have taken

0:14:46 > 0:14:50their readings and got back in time to murder Leo Downs before 11:40.

0:14:50 > 0:14:52How are we going to do that?

0:14:52 > 0:14:55Thank you. Thank you for your cooperation.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58Right, stopwatches?

0:15:00 > 0:15:03Good. So you drive to your allocated station, you wait ten minutes

0:15:03 > 0:15:08to cover taking the data, then you return directly to the lodgings.

0:15:08 > 0:15:09Chief?

0:15:09 > 0:15:12If they were trying to get back to kill Leo,

0:15:12 > 0:15:15they probably wouldn't have stuck to the speed limit.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17Right, yes. You can drive as fast as you can.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19Just try not to kill anyone.

0:15:23 > 0:15:24I love this job!

0:15:26 > 0:15:27Three, two...

0:15:29 > 0:15:30Wait!

0:15:30 > 0:15:33Go, go, go, go, go!

0:16:14 > 0:16:16- One hour?- One hour.

0:16:18 > 0:16:22Well, if the photos are genuine, all our suspects have an alibi.

0:16:25 > 0:16:28So if opportunity is proving a little slippery, what about motive?

0:16:28 > 0:16:32Well, Leo Downs had an argument with Jennifer Cheung

0:16:32 > 0:16:34about study paper credits.

0:16:34 > 0:16:37He also recently ended a relationship with Amber Collins.

0:16:37 > 0:16:42And Damon Ryan is very strange, but they just didn't get on at all.

0:16:42 > 0:16:46But are any of those enough for someone to want to kill him?

0:16:46 > 0:16:52Or is it more likely someone was trying to stop him seeing the dean?

0:16:52 > 0:16:55After all, he had something that could blow the whole department apart.

0:16:55 > 0:16:56I want to see his room.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58Sir, it's almost five.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01We've only got a couple of hours before the hurricane is due to hit.

0:17:01 > 0:17:03So, bring an umbrella.

0:17:05 > 0:17:08He has no idea how dangerous a hurricane is.

0:17:22 > 0:17:23What are we looking for exactly?

0:17:25 > 0:17:26His camera?

0:17:27 > 0:17:31Something to explain the rubber duck?

0:17:31 > 0:17:32A motive?

0:17:33 > 0:17:36Whatever it is that could blow the department apart.

0:17:36 > 0:17:37His father.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39He died last year.

0:17:40 > 0:17:42Poor thing.

0:17:42 > 0:17:46'Glory follows virtue as if it were its shadow'. That's beautiful.

0:17:46 > 0:17:47Really? That's Cicero.

0:17:49 > 0:17:50Cicero. Roman philosopher.

0:17:54 > 0:17:56Hey!

0:17:57 > 0:17:59His laptop.

0:18:04 > 0:18:05OK.

0:18:07 > 0:18:08That's odd.

0:18:08 > 0:18:12There's nothing there. It's empty. Just a couple of video files.

0:18:12 > 0:18:13No work?

0:18:13 > 0:18:16No. No work, no photos, no music files.

0:18:16 > 0:18:19Either he was very lazy or someone's wiped it.

0:18:21 > 0:18:22Let's see the video.

0:18:25 > 0:18:30Most people are saying that Irma is going to be category 2 or 3

0:18:30 > 0:18:33direct hit, but my calculations are saying something else.

0:18:33 > 0:18:37I think that we're going to see a cat 2 at best.

0:18:37 > 0:18:41And I also think the course of the hurricane is going to see a miss,

0:18:41 > 0:18:44some 40 miles north-west of the island.

0:18:44 > 0:18:47Not what his professor said.

0:18:47 > 0:18:48Hmm, what about the other one?

0:18:52 > 0:18:53Hey, Mum.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56Sorry I've not called in a while.

0:18:56 > 0:19:00Things have been, erm... tricky round here lately.

0:19:00 > 0:19:04People have not been behaving well. It's been lonely.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10I've been thinking about home a lot. I really miss you.

0:19:11 > 0:19:12And him.

0:19:14 > 0:19:18When I saw Dad last, he talked about no regrets.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21"Don't pass up on fun" he said.

0:19:21 > 0:19:25"Don't run away from problems you should have faced up to".

0:19:25 > 0:19:28Today I'm going to see both of those things through.

0:19:31 > 0:19:35Later the serious stuff, but first - the fun.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38It was this mad idea we had,

0:19:38 > 0:19:41and it'll sort of be a way to get closer to him.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44One more for Curtis!

0:19:44 > 0:19:45Who's Curtis?

0:19:45 > 0:19:49Anyway, erm... I'll e-mail you the results.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51I love you.

0:19:51 > 0:19:52Oh. He seems nice.

0:19:54 > 0:19:55What is it?

0:19:55 > 0:20:00Why kill him? What is there to gain, hmm? What are we missing?

0:20:05 > 0:20:07The dean had one of these in her bag.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10Come to think of it, so did the professor.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12Drink?

0:20:14 > 0:20:17Corporate bumph for the Saint Marie Development Agency.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19Ah yes, it's been on the local news.

0:20:19 > 0:20:23They're trying to get people on side for oil rigs off the coast.

0:20:23 > 0:20:25Hmm, there's a lot of people against the project.

0:20:27 > 0:20:31That's Marcus Sweet. A local politician. He runs the agency.

0:20:31 > 0:20:32So Leo circled him,

0:20:32 > 0:20:36and put this brochure inside a book about conspiracies?

0:20:36 > 0:20:38Do you think this is what the meeting with the dean was about?

0:20:38 > 0:20:40Could be.

0:20:40 > 0:20:42Let's go check 'em out.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54I was thinking, why don't you stay at mine tonight?

0:20:56 > 0:20:58To see out the hurricane.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00Oh, no, no. No, thanks.

0:21:00 > 0:21:03I don't like the idea of you alone in that little wooden shack.

0:21:03 > 0:21:05There's going to be 80-mile-an-hour winds.

0:21:05 > 0:21:06You'll end up in a tree.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09Yeah, well the tree's already in the house, so no change there.

0:21:09 > 0:21:11I'm serious. It's not a good idea.

0:21:12 > 0:21:14Hello! Hello!

0:21:15 > 0:21:18They've probably gone home. Everyone else has.

0:21:18 > 0:21:21Honestly, if everyone in England crawled into a shelter every time

0:21:21 > 0:21:25there was a little bit of wind and rain, we'd never have had an empire.

0:21:25 > 0:21:26Come on.

0:21:37 > 0:21:41As part of our duties in times of hurricane, we sometimes

0:21:41 > 0:21:48go around checking people have the right kinds of locks and shutters.

0:21:51 > 0:21:52Whoa, whoa, whoa, Camille!

0:21:54 > 0:21:55What!?

0:21:55 > 0:21:57Poorly secured doors and windows cause more accidents

0:21:57 > 0:21:59in hurricanes than anything else.

0:22:05 > 0:22:06See?

0:22:06 > 0:22:08You've just violated several codes of practice.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10I will not be part of this.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12OK, fine. Let's wait 24 hours for a warrant.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15By then, the killer could have fled, could have destroyed evidence.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Shh.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19We are paying for this to be secured.

0:22:25 > 0:22:29'Word up. Hurricane Irma is due to hit the island early this evening.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32'So be safe, people, batten down the hatches

0:22:32 > 0:22:35'and move all loose street furniture inside.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37'After all, you don't want a sun lounger flying through

0:22:37 > 0:22:40'the window when you're listening to your favourite tunes.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42'And here is one of mine.'

0:22:42 > 0:22:44REGGAE SONG STARTS

0:23:07 > 0:23:11This is a draft feasibility study of the oil platform project.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14Guess who their chief atmospheric consultant is?

0:23:15 > 0:23:19OK, so one of the key hurdles the company has to navigate

0:23:19 > 0:23:21is the environmental impact assessment.

0:23:21 > 0:23:24And Professor King pops up to say he's satisfied their deep-sea

0:23:24 > 0:23:27drilling rigs will survive a hurricane,

0:23:27 > 0:23:30and therefore pose no risk to the environment.

0:23:31 > 0:23:35Caribbean oil could be big business in the future.

0:23:35 > 0:23:37If Leo was going to put these deals in jeopardy,

0:23:37 > 0:23:40someone might want him out of the way.

0:23:40 > 0:23:44Yeah, but we still need something to prove a link to the university.

0:23:52 > 0:23:53That'll do.

0:23:56 > 0:23:57Inspector.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59May we come in?

0:23:59 > 0:24:00Er, yes. Yes, of course.

0:24:05 > 0:24:07I hope we're not interrupting anything?

0:24:07 > 0:24:10Not at all, just university business.

0:24:12 > 0:24:14And that's exactly what we wanted to talk to you about.

0:24:14 > 0:24:16Oh?

0:24:16 > 0:24:19Particularly your relationship with the Saint Marie Development Agency

0:24:19 > 0:24:22and its Caribbean oil project.

0:24:22 > 0:24:23I have nothing to hide.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26The university's budgets have been slashed of late.

0:24:26 > 0:24:29Thanks to Professor King, this is an important department doing

0:24:29 > 0:24:31important work and it needed saving.

0:24:31 > 0:24:33So I hustled and I schmoozed

0:24:33 > 0:24:36and yes, I managed to secure funding from the SMDA.

0:24:36 > 0:24:37At what price?

0:24:37 > 0:24:40It seems convenient that the SMDA keeps the centre open

0:24:40 > 0:24:42and your reports support their work.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45I am a man of science, inspector, not a corporate shill.

0:24:45 > 0:24:49Leo Downs had something important to discuss with the dean.

0:24:49 > 0:24:51Perhaps it was your involvement in the project?

0:24:51 > 0:24:53You're suggesting I'm corrupt?

0:24:53 > 0:24:54We're trying to find out the truth.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56As a scientist, inspector, so am I.

0:24:58 > 0:25:02Here are my notes and calculations regarding the proposed oil platform.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05If you take the time to read them, you'll see that my assertion

0:25:05 > 0:25:09that the platform is not only safe but would withstand a category five

0:25:09 > 0:25:12hurricane is both factually correct and proven beyond reasonable doubt.

0:25:19 > 0:25:21Do you believe him?

0:25:21 > 0:25:23I'll tell you when I've read this.

0:25:23 > 0:25:26What matters though is that if the dean already knew about

0:25:26 > 0:25:27his involvement in the oil project,

0:25:27 > 0:25:30which she clearly did, then he didn't have a motive to kill Leo.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32PHONE RINGS So it's another dead end.

0:25:32 > 0:25:33Hello?

0:25:33 > 0:25:35'Hi, it's me.

0:25:35 > 0:25:37'I managed to chase up the interim autopsy.'

0:25:37 > 0:25:40It confirms the death was a result of multiple blows to the head

0:25:40 > 0:25:42with a blunt instrument.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45But it also says that the X-rays showed a previous injury.

0:25:45 > 0:25:47A broken nose, apparently. Fairly recent.

0:25:47 > 0:25:48Did you call the hospital?

0:25:48 > 0:25:50Yes.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53And they said that Mr Downs came in about five weeks ago.

0:25:53 > 0:25:56He said it was the result of an altercation with another guy.

0:25:56 > 0:25:57Who?

0:25:57 > 0:25:59We were just messing about.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01This is the man you told me you didn't like.

0:26:01 > 0:26:04Now you're telling me that you were play fighting with him?

0:26:06 > 0:26:10Ah. Or maybe this is what you were fighting about?

0:26:10 > 0:26:12Amber Collins was your girlfriend?

0:26:12 > 0:26:14Yeah, we split up. Big deal.

0:26:14 > 0:26:15- Why?- Ask her.

0:26:15 > 0:26:17No, I'm asking you.

0:26:17 > 0:26:19She'd started hanging out with teacher's little pet.

0:26:19 > 0:26:20Leo?

0:26:22 > 0:26:23Couldn't have been easy for you,

0:26:23 > 0:26:27your girlfriend hanging out with a "speccy loser"?

0:26:27 > 0:26:28I haven't finished.

0:26:28 > 0:26:30Look, I didn't kill him, all right?

0:26:30 > 0:26:33OK, I didn't like him, but what would I gain from killing him?

0:26:33 > 0:26:34Nothing.

0:26:34 > 0:26:37Jenny's the one who's getting most from his death.

0:26:37 > 0:26:39She's the one who got second author, not me.

0:26:39 > 0:26:41Miss Cheung says she earned that position.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43Yeah, right(!) She's useless.

0:26:43 > 0:26:46Even I'm better than her. Leo was onto her, too.

0:26:48 > 0:26:49In what way?

0:26:49 > 0:26:51Her step-dad's Marcus Sweet. The SMDA guy?

0:26:51 > 0:26:53They're funding the centre.

0:26:53 > 0:26:55Look, you're the detective, work it out for yourself!

0:27:04 > 0:27:05No, I'm not having this.

0:27:05 > 0:27:08I knew you'd jump to this conclusion. Everyone always does.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10Poor little rich girl can't achieve anything herself.

0:27:10 > 0:27:12Daddy has to have pulled the strings.

0:27:12 > 0:27:14When did you start work here?

0:27:14 > 0:27:15A year ago.

0:27:15 > 0:27:18Before or after the SMDA put up funding?

0:27:18 > 0:27:19After.

0:27:19 > 0:27:22And how did you apply for the job?

0:27:22 > 0:27:23Was there an advert or a...?

0:27:23 > 0:27:27OK! OK! Fine! My dad got me a bloody job here. Big deal.

0:27:27 > 0:27:30That little creep found out somehow, someone must have told him.

0:27:30 > 0:27:31And what happened?

0:27:32 > 0:27:36See, you're going to jump to all kinds of conclusions.

0:27:36 > 0:27:37This isn't fair.

0:27:37 > 0:27:39What happened, Miss Cheung?

0:27:39 > 0:27:40He wanted me thrown out.

0:27:40 > 0:27:43You're a fake. You don't deserve to be second.

0:27:43 > 0:27:45Well, I've got it, so get over it.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47Well, I'm going to do something about this.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49Drop dead, you whiny little toad.

0:27:51 > 0:27:53He wanted to destroy everything I've worked for.

0:28:00 > 0:28:02Following your interview with Damon Ryan,

0:28:02 > 0:28:05we have a possible motive of jealousy over Leo's relationship

0:28:05 > 0:28:07with Amber Collins.

0:28:07 > 0:28:10But was Miss Collins angry enough at being cast aside

0:28:10 > 0:28:14to want to kill him? Or was Leo mixed up in some sort of

0:28:14 > 0:28:17corporate conspiracy involving his professor?

0:28:17 > 0:28:20And finally, was it about ambition?

0:28:20 > 0:28:22One thing that's been curiously absent from all of this,

0:28:22 > 0:28:25is Leo's work. Hmm? Nothing on his computer,

0:28:25 > 0:28:28nothing in his room. Anyone else find that strange?

0:28:28 > 0:28:31Well, maybe his work is on the university computers.

0:28:31 > 0:28:32Could be.

0:28:33 > 0:28:34Where's his camera?

0:28:34 > 0:28:37And why did he have a rubber duck with him when he was murdered?

0:28:37 > 0:28:39What does "one more for Curtis" mean?

0:28:39 > 0:28:41I need to go to the university.

0:28:41 > 0:28:42What?

0:28:42 > 0:28:44To check the database for Leo's work.

0:28:44 > 0:28:46You know, maybe we're missing something,

0:28:46 > 0:28:50or you know, the reference or mention of this "Curtis".

0:28:50 > 0:28:52Sir, the reports are saying that everyone should stay where they are.

0:28:52 > 0:28:55Fidel's right, Chief. You shouldn't go out there.

0:28:55 > 0:28:57Leo Downs' mother has already lost her husband.

0:28:57 > 0:28:58Now she's lost her son as well.

0:28:58 > 0:29:00I'm not stopping for wind and rain.

0:29:00 > 0:29:02Excuse me, I won't be long.

0:29:07 > 0:29:09Richard Poole!

0:29:11 > 0:29:16OK, so, you wear a woollen suit in the sun, you ignore hurricanes -

0:29:16 > 0:29:18Where did you get this pig-headed streak from?!

0:29:18 > 0:29:22Are you sure you're not just a bit frightened of the hurricane?

0:29:22 > 0:29:26Actually, yes, I am. It's really starting to bite!

0:29:26 > 0:29:28It's just a bit of wind!

0:29:31 > 0:29:32And rain!

0:29:32 > 0:29:34Yes! Richard!

0:29:49 > 0:29:51Leave it, detective!

0:29:58 > 0:30:01Right, I'll check the computer.

0:30:02 > 0:30:06You see if you can find a locker in his name.

0:30:06 > 0:30:09Any hard copies of work he's submitted.

0:30:09 > 0:30:12And check the staff files too, yeah?

0:30:12 > 0:30:15See if you can find a Curtis associated with the unit.

0:30:15 > 0:30:16No.

0:30:16 > 0:30:19We've got about ten minutes before it gets too dangerous to drive back.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21We'd better hurry up then, hadn't we?

0:30:32 > 0:30:33Nothing. No locker,

0:30:33 > 0:30:37no-one called Curtis in any contact details in the office.

0:30:37 > 0:30:41I can't find any of Leo's work. I mean, literally nothing.

0:30:41 > 0:30:43It's as if Leo Downs never existed.

0:30:43 > 0:30:44CRASHING ON ROOF

0:30:44 > 0:30:46We should go.

0:30:47 > 0:30:48Now!

0:30:57 > 0:30:59LASHING RAIN AND WIND

0:31:09 > 0:31:11I don't think we're going anywhere.

0:31:25 > 0:31:28I found Leo's logging details and retrieved his browsing history.

0:31:28 > 0:31:30He watched a lot of internet videos.

0:31:30 > 0:31:31Oh, dear.

0:31:31 > 0:31:33No, not that kind of video, the popular ones.

0:31:33 > 0:31:37You know, sneezing panda, furious fat kid, skateboarding dog?

0:31:39 > 0:31:40OK, come on.

0:31:40 > 0:31:43This is a cool one. It's these college kids in the US.

0:31:43 > 0:31:46They fixed a camera and a toy man onto a weather balloon

0:31:46 > 0:31:49and sent it to the edge of space.

0:31:49 > 0:31:51- 'There we go.- Amazing.'

0:31:55 > 0:31:57Pause that a second.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02Leo had all the equipment to launch a weather balloon.

0:32:02 > 0:32:05Helium, balloons, radiosondes.

0:32:05 > 0:32:06What's a radiosonde?

0:32:10 > 0:32:12One of these, look.

0:32:12 > 0:32:15They contain the equipment that hangs below weather balloons.

0:32:15 > 0:32:17Leo said in his video he was going to do something fun

0:32:17 > 0:32:20that he and his father had talked about. Something to get him closer to his dad.

0:32:20 > 0:32:21In heaven.

0:32:21 > 0:32:24What if launching the duck was the mad idea?

0:32:25 > 0:32:27OK. So who's Curtis?

0:32:27 > 0:32:30OK, right, let's think about this logically.

0:32:30 > 0:32:33Where is a helium-filled weather balloon likely to go?

0:32:33 > 0:32:34Up.

0:32:34 > 0:32:35Yeah, for a while.

0:32:35 > 0:32:37But then when it reaches the upper atmosphere,

0:32:37 > 0:32:39- the helium expands, the balloon bursts.- So it'll come down.

0:32:39 > 0:32:41Right, where? On the island?

0:32:41 > 0:32:42More likely in the sea.

0:32:42 > 0:32:43Good. Yes, yes, the sea!

0:32:43 > 0:32:46Right, so do a search - er, sea, Curtis, duck.

0:32:53 > 0:32:54No way.

0:32:54 > 0:32:58In 1992, a container ship hit rough seas

0:32:58 > 0:33:00and several containers fell into the Pacific.

0:33:00 > 0:33:04In one of those containers were 28,000 bath toys.

0:33:04 > 0:33:08Oceanographer Curtis Ebbesmeyer saw a unique opportunity to track

0:33:08 > 0:33:11the ocean's currents using the ducks.

0:33:11 > 0:33:15So if this fellow landed in the ocean, it would be "one more for Curtis".

0:33:15 > 0:33:17That's really sweet. But how does it help?

0:33:17 > 0:33:21Well, Leo said he was going to e-mail the results to his mother.

0:33:21 > 0:33:24So, so he must have had some way of recording it?

0:33:24 > 0:33:25A camera.

0:33:25 > 0:33:28The camera! The camera was attached to the radiosonde,

0:33:28 > 0:33:30but the duck wasn't fixed properly.

0:33:30 > 0:33:32Maybe he didn't have a chance to secure it

0:33:32 > 0:33:34because he saw his attacker approaching.

0:33:34 > 0:33:36But Camille, what if the camera was recording?

0:33:36 > 0:33:38- It might have caught something.- Yeah.

0:33:38 > 0:33:41A glimpse of the killer. Their voice. The answer could be on that camera.

0:33:41 > 0:33:43Yes, but how are we going to find it?

0:33:43 > 0:33:48Right, the radiosonde emits a signal, yeah?

0:33:51 > 0:33:53When one of these receivers is in range...

0:33:54 > 0:33:57It'll pick it up.

0:33:57 > 0:34:01OK! But we've just said it will most likely be in the sea.

0:34:01 > 0:34:02Yeah, that is a problem.

0:34:05 > 0:34:06Er, right, look ...

0:34:06 > 0:34:09But what if it didn't make it to the sea?

0:34:11 > 0:34:14OK, Leo launched the weather balloon here.

0:34:14 > 0:34:15Right?

0:34:15 > 0:34:17The centre of the island.

0:34:17 > 0:34:20Erm, the prevailing wind was northerly, so in other words,

0:34:20 > 0:34:21blowing from the north.

0:34:21 > 0:34:24If it landed anywhere on land, it will be somewhere here.

0:34:25 > 0:34:27This, that's where we need to look.

0:34:27 > 0:34:30What? But you can't get out there now!

0:34:30 > 0:34:31Sir! Stop!

0:34:31 > 0:34:34Stop! You'll get killed.

0:34:34 > 0:34:35The camera!

0:34:35 > 0:34:36So?

0:34:36 > 0:34:38The answer, Camille!

0:34:38 > 0:34:39We'll have to wait.

0:34:39 > 0:34:40I can't!

0:34:52 > 0:34:53Well, stay safe.

0:34:54 > 0:34:56Yes, and how's your mother?

0:34:57 > 0:35:00No, no, I don't want to talk to her, no.

0:35:00 > 0:35:04Hi, hi, yes... Sorry I can't be there, erm ...

0:35:04 > 0:35:07No, I have to stay on shift just in case we're needed.

0:35:09 > 0:35:12Yes, but I know you'll take very good care of them for me.

0:35:12 > 0:35:14Hmm... Hello?

0:35:14 > 0:35:15Hello?

0:35:19 > 0:35:21Phones are dead.

0:35:21 > 0:35:25Yeah. Great. Now she's going to think I hung up on her.

0:35:25 > 0:35:27You know the best thing you can do now is sleep.

0:35:27 > 0:35:29Your brain needs rest before the exam.

0:35:29 > 0:35:32No, no, no. I can't, I've tried and it feels like I'm sleeping on duty.

0:35:34 > 0:35:38You know what, I think I'll do some more revision.

0:35:48 > 0:35:49This one is ice cold.

0:35:49 > 0:35:53Put it on your face, it'll help with the swelling.

0:35:53 > 0:35:55- Ow.- Yeah, I told you not to go out there.

0:35:55 > 0:35:58Look, there was a camera at the scene.

0:35:58 > 0:36:01Hmm? It could have recorded the murder or captured something.

0:36:01 > 0:36:03I think that's worth finding, don't you?

0:36:03 > 0:36:06Yes, just maybe not in the middle of a hurricane!

0:36:06 > 0:36:08It'll be getting wet. What if it's damaged?

0:36:08 > 0:36:13All we can do right now is what everybody else on this island is doing. Sit tight.

0:36:13 > 0:36:15It just feels like we're close.

0:36:15 > 0:36:18It will keep, there's nothing else we can do.

0:36:20 > 0:36:21Ow!

0:36:21 > 0:36:22Oh, come on.

0:36:24 > 0:36:26A case is like a tent. Ow!

0:36:29 > 0:36:32I was saying, a case is like a tent, Detective.

0:36:32 > 0:36:34There's always a corner you can peg out a little bit further

0:36:34 > 0:36:37to get the canvas that little bit tauter.

0:36:37 > 0:36:39Where did you get that one from?

0:36:39 > 0:36:42- My Dad.- Did he like camping?

0:36:42 > 0:36:44Hated it. A caravan man.

0:36:44 > 0:36:47Of course the analogy doesn't really work with a caravan.

0:36:47 > 0:36:49You can't peg a caravan out, can you?

0:36:49 > 0:36:54- I suppose you could extend the legs...- OK. Do you want some crisps?

0:36:54 > 0:36:57- Where are you going to get crisps from?- The vending machine.

0:36:57 > 0:37:00- The electricity's off. - I've got my own ways.

0:37:00 > 0:37:03No more criminal damage, Camille. I can't keep turning a blind eye.

0:37:03 > 0:37:05So you don't want anything? Fine.

0:37:09 > 0:37:12A bar of chocolate would be nice.

0:37:12 > 0:37:15Leave the money in that little coin rejecty thing.

0:37:57 > 0:37:59Did you get us stuck here on purpose

0:37:59 > 0:38:02just to use this giant whiteboard?

0:38:02 > 0:38:03It may have been at the back of my mind.

0:38:05 > 0:38:08Now, I know that one of these four did it.

0:38:09 > 0:38:12Despite what the photographic evidence might say, I know.

0:38:12 > 0:38:16One of them is lying about being at the compass point, but which one?

0:38:17 > 0:38:18And how do we prove it?

0:38:27 > 0:38:28Why am I doing this?

0:38:47 > 0:38:49Er, what if they had an accomplice?

0:38:49 > 0:38:52Someone who took the photographs while they committed the murder?

0:38:52 > 0:38:54What if they took the photos yesterday?

0:38:54 > 0:38:56The data correlates today's weather.

0:38:56 > 0:39:00They could have changed the reading, used an ice cube to cool the...

0:39:00 > 0:39:03You've been talking for two hours.

0:39:03 > 0:39:05- Have I?- Yes.

0:39:05 > 0:39:06Sorry. Sorry.

0:39:13 > 0:39:15Have you ever stayed in a caravan?

0:39:17 > 0:39:20Er, luckily my life's not hit those depths yet.

0:39:20 > 0:39:23It's what this reminds me of, you know?

0:39:23 > 0:39:26A rainy Saturday afternoon in a caravan,

0:39:26 > 0:39:29Dad watching the racing on a black and white TV.

0:39:29 > 0:39:32Mum boiling something to death on the little stove.

0:39:32 > 0:39:36Rain lashing the roof, the whole room swaying in the wind.

0:39:36 > 0:39:40Why do the British choose such depressing holidays to go on?

0:39:40 > 0:39:45Hey, I loved it. That smell, you know, that caravan smell.

0:39:45 > 0:39:47I tell you what, if you ever come to England,

0:39:47 > 0:39:50I'll take you to a caravan in Clacton for the weekend.

0:39:52 > 0:39:53I can't wait(!)

0:39:56 > 0:39:57God, I suddenly feel homesick.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03I'm even missing my Dad. Good God, what's wrong with me!

0:40:03 > 0:40:05You know, I really should phone him.

0:40:05 > 0:40:07Is he like you?

0:40:07 > 0:40:10- My Father? God, no. - What's he like, then?

0:40:11 > 0:40:14Actually, my Dad was the reason I became a policeman.

0:40:14 > 0:40:18I suppose I could've been an academic like Leo, but, erm,

0:40:18 > 0:40:21he didn't think a knowledge of history brought that much

0:40:21 > 0:40:25- of practical use to the world. - So you wanted to keep him happy?

0:40:27 > 0:40:29Doesn't every child want to please their father?

0:40:33 > 0:40:36Don't ask me. I haven't seen mine for years.

0:40:36 > 0:40:39Oh. Sorry.

0:40:39 > 0:40:45If it's any consolation, I haven't had a decent conversation with my dad in about 20 years.

0:40:45 > 0:40:49Growing up, I was not unlike Leo Downs.

0:40:49 > 0:40:52Always on the periphery. Never really at the centre of things.

0:40:54 > 0:40:57I suppose that's why I like puzzles.

0:40:57 > 0:41:00Generally, they're things you can do on your own.

0:41:00 > 0:41:01But you don't have to any more.

0:41:02 > 0:41:04You have me.

0:41:06 > 0:41:07SHE CHUCKLES

0:41:07 > 0:41:09Yes, yeah, right.

0:41:11 > 0:41:12HE SIGHS

0:41:13 > 0:41:15This is amusing you, isn't it? My discomfort?

0:41:15 > 0:41:16Yes.

0:41:16 > 0:41:19Well, at least you're honest about it.

0:41:19 > 0:41:21Well, you're...you're so pompous sometimes,

0:41:21 > 0:41:25I like it when you're just...human.

0:41:31 > 0:41:32So what about now?

0:41:33 > 0:41:36Do you think your Dad is proud of you?

0:41:36 > 0:41:39That's a difficult question to answer, really.

0:41:39 > 0:41:44Erm...you know, when I'm not around, I suspect he is.

0:41:44 > 0:41:45But, erm...

0:41:46 > 0:41:48When I'm there,

0:41:48 > 0:41:50I can almost feel the disappointment radiating off him.

0:41:51 > 0:41:56Maybe he just finds it hard to express his emotions.

0:41:58 > 0:42:00You must get it from somewhere.

0:42:00 > 0:42:02No, I think it's genuine disappointment.

0:42:02 > 0:42:04SHE CHUCKLES

0:42:09 > 0:42:12- Look, I'm sorry if I'm a bit... You know.- Don't be.

0:42:15 > 0:42:17Can you keep a secret?

0:42:17 > 0:42:19Yeah.

0:42:19 > 0:42:20I quite like it.

0:42:28 > 0:42:30And this was nice.

0:42:56 > 0:42:59Well, the Land Rover's here so they must be, too.

0:43:07 > 0:43:08Blood on the dustbin lid.

0:43:27 > 0:43:28HE CLEARS THROAT LOUDLY

0:43:30 > 0:43:31Morning.

0:43:37 > 0:43:43- Good morning.- Sleep all right? - Yes. Yeah, yeah, a little.

0:43:43 > 0:43:49It was a bit windy, but I'd hardly call it a hurricane, not like '87.

0:43:49 > 0:43:51You're right, it wasn't.

0:43:51 > 0:43:56- Really?- It missed us, skimmed past around 40 miles north-west.

0:43:56 > 0:43:58- We're very lucky.- Hmm.

0:43:59 > 0:44:01We went past your shack,

0:44:01 > 0:44:04it still took a bit of a battering, though.

0:44:04 > 0:44:07You mustn't tell anyone...

0:44:07 > 0:44:11Er, Camille! Er, Sergeant Bordey!

0:44:11 > 0:44:12Mmmmm...?

0:44:12 > 0:44:18Come on! No time for sleep! We are going balloon hunting.

0:44:18 > 0:44:23Take these and I will explain on the way. Come on!

0:44:29 > 0:44:33I swear, if one more person asks me if we can get the BBC on this...

0:44:45 > 0:44:47Stop! Stop! Stop!

0:44:47 > 0:44:49I've got something.

0:45:04 > 0:45:06Fantastic!

0:45:09 > 0:45:10Well, up you go, Dwayne.

0:45:16 > 0:45:20Hey, Dad! Big day today.

0:45:20 > 0:45:23I'm going to make you proud, you just watch.

0:45:23 > 0:45:27But first... Space duck!

0:45:30 > 0:45:34- What do you want? - It's the killer!

0:45:34 > 0:45:36Go away. It's over. The proof's safely hidden.

0:45:36 > 0:45:38What proof? Proof of what?

0:45:38 > 0:45:40YELLS ON VIDEOTAPE

0:45:42 > 0:45:44- No voice. No glimpse.- No murderer.

0:45:44 > 0:45:47Oh, great, now we're back to square one.

0:45:47 > 0:45:48Yeah.

0:45:48 > 0:45:49PHONE RINGS

0:45:49 > 0:45:51Lines are back up.

0:45:51 > 0:45:56Honore Police Station. Juliet... Yes, hi... How was it?

0:45:56 > 0:46:00He had proof of something safely hidden. Why haven't we found it?

0:46:00 > 0:46:04We've been through his laptop, through the university system,

0:46:04 > 0:46:07his room, his locker. We didn't find anything.

0:46:07 > 0:46:12He must have hidden it somewhere else. Somewhere significant to him.

0:46:12 > 0:46:14Yes, put her on, I'd like to talk to her.

0:46:19 > 0:46:21Leo, West.

0:46:21 > 0:46:23Can we swap? I really need to be here.

0:46:26 > 0:46:28Mm-hm. Did you sleep through the storm?

0:46:30 > 0:46:32- One hour?- One hour.

0:46:38 > 0:46:42What a good girl you are. Daddy misses you, darling. Yes, I do.

0:46:42 > 0:46:43Hey, Dad!

0:46:43 > 0:46:45Fathers...

0:46:46 > 0:46:48This has all been about his Dad, hasn't it?

0:46:48 > 0:46:49That's where we need to look.

0:47:05 > 0:47:07- What's going on?- Police business!

0:47:23 > 0:47:24Ha!

0:47:30 > 0:47:34What is this? His work? This must be the hidden proof, right?

0:47:34 > 0:47:37Papers. Scientific reports. Charts.

0:47:37 > 0:47:39Equation. Hurricane modelling systems.

0:47:39 > 0:47:41If it's just university work, why's he hidden it?

0:47:41 > 0:47:45And why would someone kill for it? Wait. This looks familiar.

0:47:45 > 0:47:49Things are underlined, highlighted...

0:47:49 > 0:47:53OK, we know the killer must have changed the time code on their camera.

0:47:53 > 0:47:54Yes, but we don't know which one.

0:47:54 > 0:47:56Well, maybe we do -

0:47:56 > 0:47:59maybe the answer's been right in front of us all the time.

0:47:59 > 0:48:01Time! Wha...what time is it!?

0:48:01 > 0:48:03Just gone 11.

0:48:04 > 0:48:05Wait, don't do that ...

0:48:10 > 0:48:12Are you going to tell me where we're going?

0:48:14 > 0:48:17"Glory follows virtue as if it were its shadow."

0:48:17 > 0:48:19Er...

0:48:34 > 0:48:40Oh, for God... 300 days a year, you shine.

0:48:40 > 0:48:43Ten hours a day!

0:48:43 > 0:48:45And the one time

0:48:45 > 0:48:48I actually want you to shine,

0:48:48 > 0:48:49you go in!

0:49:04 > 0:49:05Thank you.

0:49:11 > 0:49:14Thank you for coming. Please, take a seat.

0:49:24 > 0:49:27I want to talk today about Leo Downs.

0:49:27 > 0:49:30The last thing he did on this earth was to

0:49:30 > 0:49:33diligently collect data from a weather station.

0:49:33 > 0:49:37Then to launch a weather balloon in remembrance of his father.

0:49:37 > 0:49:40While doing this, he was murdered...

0:49:40 > 0:49:41by someone in this room.

0:49:44 > 0:49:48To discover the truth, we had to go to all points of the compass.

0:49:48 > 0:49:50Literally.

0:49:50 > 0:49:52We found a scene that was staged.

0:49:52 > 0:49:57Everything pointed towards his assailant being one of his colleagues.

0:49:57 > 0:50:02Professor King was involved in a controversial scheme many people disapproved of.

0:50:02 > 0:50:07Then we had the jilted girlfriend, the ambitious rival

0:50:07 > 0:50:11and the jealous house mate. But how could any of you have done it?

0:50:11 > 0:50:15You were all miles away at the other weather stations.

0:50:15 > 0:50:19Proof came in the form of a series of photographs,

0:50:19 > 0:50:22very conveniently dated and timed.

0:50:22 > 0:50:25It didn't take a genius to work out that the killer had

0:50:25 > 0:50:30almost certainly re-set the clock on their camera to provide an alibi,

0:50:30 > 0:50:34but we had no way of knowing which one. Until now.

0:50:37 > 0:50:40Then there was motive - that was puzzling, too.

0:50:40 > 0:50:43Yes, there were petty squabbles within the unit,

0:50:43 > 0:50:46accusations of favouritism, affairs of the heart.

0:50:46 > 0:50:50But none of them felt like a strong enough motive for murder.

0:50:51 > 0:50:55Except one. Leo Downs had arranged to see the Dean,

0:50:55 > 0:50:58saying he had information that would blow the department apart.

0:50:58 > 0:51:00But what was it that he'd discovered?

0:51:00 > 0:51:05As the Dean already knew about the Professor's favourable report on the proposed oil platform,

0:51:05 > 0:51:07in fact she'd clearly encouraged it, it was unlikely to be that,

0:51:07 > 0:51:13so, what else could it be? And who would be willing to kill Leo

0:51:13 > 0:51:16in order to prevent him revealing whatever it was?

0:51:17 > 0:51:20We found the answer in his work.

0:51:22 > 0:51:24I think you'll find that's mine.

0:51:24 > 0:51:26- Are you sure?- I know my own work.

0:51:26 > 0:51:30Yes, I read your book. No mistakes. I was impressed.

0:51:30 > 0:51:34See, you can then imagine how surprised I was to find a manuscript,

0:51:34 > 0:51:39hidden on a memory stick - identical, virtually word for word.

0:51:42 > 0:51:44Yet written by Leo Downs.

0:51:44 > 0:51:47You see, Leo Downs was a brilliant meteorologist -

0:51:47 > 0:51:50he even predicted that the hurricane would miss the island by 40 miles

0:51:50 > 0:51:54to the North West - which indeed it did. You spent time with him

0:51:54 > 0:51:57so you could steal his work. And when he discovered what you were doing,

0:51:57 > 0:52:01you murdered him to protect your burgeoning reputation.

0:52:01 > 0:52:03You felt the net closing in.

0:52:03 > 0:52:07Encouraged by the Dean to promote the career of Jennifer Cheung

0:52:07 > 0:52:12to protect her funding, you knew that Mr Downs was reaching the end of his tether,

0:52:12 > 0:52:15that you would have to deal with him permanently.

0:52:15 > 0:52:19The hurricane provided the ideal opportunity.

0:52:19 > 0:52:23When you came to Saint Marie, you weren't going anywhere - your words.

0:52:24 > 0:52:29Somehow, miraculously, you bloomed

0:52:29 > 0:52:32into a meteorologist at the top of his profession.

0:52:32 > 0:52:37Books, visits to Yale and Oxford, lucrative consultancies for the likes of the SMDA.

0:52:37 > 0:52:40What happened? Was it the Saint Marie air?

0:52:40 > 0:52:45Or was it that you discovered a meek researcher whose brilliant ideas you could steal?

0:52:45 > 0:52:46You're not a Professor, Mr King.

0:52:46 > 0:52:49You're a plagiarist.

0:52:49 > 0:52:51A plagiarist and a murderer.

0:52:51 > 0:52:54That is a disgusting accusation.

0:52:54 > 0:52:58You have no understanding of how things work in the academic world.

0:52:58 > 0:52:59I understand what theft is.

0:52:59 > 0:53:02In academia, authorship is shared.

0:53:02 > 0:53:04Yours is the only name I see on the title page.

0:53:04 > 0:53:09There's no case to answer here. Plagiarism cases never stick.

0:53:09 > 0:53:12Students, researchers, they all imagine

0:53:12 > 0:53:14that they've done more work than they have.

0:53:14 > 0:53:17Is that what you told Mr Downs when he first confronted you?

0:53:17 > 0:53:21Plagiarism is abuse, Professor. It works in exactly the same way.

0:53:22 > 0:53:25You originally assigned Leo to the West station, didn't you?

0:53:26 > 0:53:28Leo, West.

0:53:28 > 0:53:31Out there he'd have been isolated... alone.

0:53:31 > 0:53:32A much easier prospect.

0:53:32 > 0:53:36Guaranteed not to be found till after the hurricane.

0:53:36 > 0:53:37But then he swapped.

0:53:37 > 0:53:39Damon! Can we swap?

0:53:39 > 0:53:42I've just got something to do, I need to be here.

0:53:42 > 0:53:44After Leo swapped with Damon,

0:53:44 > 0:53:47you knew you had to take a calculated risk and kill him here.

0:53:47 > 0:53:51You said you were going to the north weather station, but that was a lie.

0:53:51 > 0:53:52You went nowhere.

0:53:52 > 0:53:55You actually stopped your car just outside the perimeter

0:53:55 > 0:53:56and walked back.

0:54:01 > 0:54:04You waited until the time was right...

0:54:04 > 0:54:08Hi, Dad. Big day today, I'm going to make you proud.

0:54:08 > 0:54:10Just watch. But first...

0:54:12 > 0:54:13Space Duck.

0:54:17 > 0:54:21What do you want? Go away, it's over. The proof's safely hidden.

0:54:21 > 0:54:23THEY YELL

0:54:28 > 0:54:32You then staged the scene to make it look like hurricane damage.

0:54:32 > 0:54:36Your cunning scheme to make Mr Downs' death look like misadventure

0:54:36 > 0:54:39would most likely have worked had Mrs Hearst not come in...

0:54:39 > 0:54:43No! I was at the North weather station.

0:54:43 > 0:54:47Yes. And here is the photograph you took on the day of the murder.

0:54:48 > 0:54:52And here is one I took an hour ago.

0:54:52 > 0:54:56At the North weather station. Exactly the same position. Exactly the same time

0:54:56 > 0:54:59you say you took yours. But there's a difference, isn't there?

0:54:59 > 0:55:00One a lay person might not see,

0:55:00 > 0:55:03but one I'm sure a meteorologist would notice.

0:55:05 > 0:55:06Longer shadow.

0:55:06 > 0:55:09There's a longer shadow in the Professor's photograph.

0:55:09 > 0:55:13Can anyone estimate the time the professor's photograph was really taken?

0:55:13 > 0:55:16Earlier than 11.30. 8, 9am.

0:55:18 > 0:55:21You took your photograph before you came to work,

0:55:21 > 0:55:23leaving you free to murder Mr Downs.

0:55:27 > 0:55:29"Glory follows virtue as if it were its shadow".

0:55:34 > 0:55:36Dwayne, Fidel, do the admin.

0:55:54 > 0:55:55Good news, Fidel.

0:55:55 > 0:55:57The test centre's been blown away?

0:55:57 > 0:55:59No, no. Fully functional. Can't wait to see you.

0:55:59 > 0:56:01Your exam starts at 3.30.

0:56:01 > 0:56:04But I haven't slept. I don't know anything.

0:56:04 > 0:56:07- You'll be fine. - Yes, you go get them, tiger!

0:56:08 > 0:56:12- Sir, Fidel will be all right, won't he?- I don't know.

0:56:12 > 0:56:16You know what, maybe I'll just try again next year.

0:56:16 > 0:56:18SHE CLICKS HER FINGERS

0:56:22 > 0:56:24I thought you said you weren't like your father.

0:56:24 > 0:56:26Hmm?

0:56:26 > 0:56:28A little encouragement?

0:56:32 > 0:56:33Oh!

0:56:41 > 0:56:44Erm, Fidel. For you.

0:56:46 > 0:56:48It's the one I took all my exams with.

0:56:50 > 0:56:52You've come on leaps and bounds lately.

0:56:52 > 0:56:56You've studied thoroughly - I've seen you. You're ready.

0:56:56 > 0:56:58Go get your stripes.

0:57:00 > 0:57:01Good luck, Fidel!

0:57:05 > 0:57:06A pencil?

0:57:14 > 0:57:17So? Did you phone your father?

0:57:17 > 0:57:19No, I'll call him later.

0:57:19 > 0:57:21We've just had a near miss with a major hurricane.

0:57:21 > 0:57:23Don't you think he's going to know that?

0:57:23 > 0:57:25We're on the other side of the world.

0:57:25 > 0:57:29And don't you think he checks the weather? He's English, right?

0:57:29 > 0:57:31You don't know my dad.

0:57:34 > 0:57:37Drinks all afternoon says he won't have a clue.

0:57:37 > 0:57:38Deal.

0:57:42 > 0:57:45Dad. Hello. How are you?

0:57:45 > 0:57:47Yeah, fine, yeah.

0:57:48 > 0:57:49No, no, it missed...

0:57:52 > 0:57:55Well, I mean a bit of damage, but nothing much...

0:57:56 > 0:57:59Oh, nothing like '87... no, no, yeah, the shed roof.

0:57:59 > 0:58:02I know, I told them here, they couldn't believe it.

0:58:03 > 0:58:04Bloody good turnout.

0:58:04 > 0:58:07It's all going marvellously.

0:58:07 > 0:58:08GUNSHOT

0:58:11 > 0:58:12I know who did this.

0:58:16 > 0:58:19Who in their right mind rings up to make an appointment to commit murder?

0:58:19 > 0:58:21Can I take you out for a drink?

0:58:21 > 0:58:23Could we have a word, please?

0:58:23 > 0:58:25I THINK he just said I'm going back to London.
