0:00:11 > 0:00:18Immorality in the life of a member of the Church

0:00:18 > 0:00:23can tarnish the work of God.

0:00:23 > 0:00:30A woman may be the model of a good wife and a good Christian.

0:00:30 > 0:00:36But that counts for little, for she is an adulterer.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39I say to her, as to you all...

0:00:39 > 0:00:41INDISTINCT

0:00:41 > 0:00:46..don't for a moment think that your sin is a private thing.

0:00:46 > 0:00:53It is adultery and tarnishes the name of the Church and...

0:00:54 > 0:00:58..destroys...our ministry in the...

0:00:59 > 0:01:01..community.

0:01:01 > 0:01:05Uh...it destroys our ministry in the community.

0:01:07 > 0:01:14Either way, your infidelities need to be brought to the light.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16This is what I warned you about.

0:01:16 > 0:01:20And I have been given that responsibility.

0:01:20 > 0:01:27You are not only breaking the commitment you made to each other,

0:01:27 > 0:01:31but also the one you made to God.

0:01:31 > 0:01:34CHURCH BELLS RING

0:01:57 > 0:01:58Some supper.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01Thank you, Evelyn.

0:02:01 > 0:02:05The fire in your room has been lit. It's a cold night out.

0:02:05 > 0:02:06Ah, yes.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08PHONE RINGS

0:02:12 > 0:02:13Hello?

0:02:13 > 0:02:15There's no-one there, Cyril.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23PHONE RINGS

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Good evening. Father Morton.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40You're aware of the hour?

0:03:11 > 0:03:15Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned.

0:03:15 > 0:03:21It has been several months since my last confession.

0:03:26 > 0:03:27Father?

0:03:31 > 0:03:33Father Morton?

0:03:37 > 0:03:38Father?

0:03:39 > 0:03:41Oh! Oh...

0:04:37 > 0:04:40CHURCH BELLS RING

0:04:40 > 0:04:43WOMAN SOBS

0:05:06 > 0:05:09It is with sadness that I can confirm

0:05:09 > 0:05:11Father Cyril Morton has passed.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13Aren't the police usually the ones

0:05:13 > 0:05:16giving speeches under such circumstances?

0:05:17 > 0:05:20It's important that we stay strong at this time

0:05:20 > 0:05:24and know that everything happens for a reason.

0:05:24 > 0:05:28We've lost a wonderful friend and an excellent priest.

0:05:29 > 0:05:33This will be a great shock to the community.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36This was an unfortunate act of nature.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39Everyone will be informed in due course

0:05:39 > 0:05:41and funeral arrangements organised

0:05:41 > 0:05:43and details announced at a later time.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46I'd say we're looking at a severe allergic reaction.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49Now we need to find out who that last penitent was.

0:05:49 > 0:05:50Well, we know that was Jean.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52No, no, no, she was here this morning.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54Morton's been dead since last night,

0:05:54 > 0:05:58judging by the discolouration of the skin.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01..until we make an official announcement later today.

0:06:01 > 0:06:05We just have to accept that this was simply Father Morton's time.

0:06:05 > 0:06:10What's strange is this late-night confession business.

0:06:14 > 0:06:15HE SIGHS

0:06:15 > 0:06:16Ah.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18Didn't fancy church this morning?

0:06:18 > 0:06:20I had other matters to deal with.

0:06:20 > 0:06:24Pity, because things don't quite add up at Sacred Heart.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26Hope you're taking notes on this, Davis.

0:06:26 > 0:06:27Yes, sir.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29You'll be handling this. I'm otherwise occupied.

0:06:29 > 0:06:31Everything all right?

0:06:31 > 0:06:33I'll let you know if it isn't.

0:06:33 > 0:06:35So, what doesn't add up?

0:06:35 > 0:06:37Well, the time frame.

0:06:37 > 0:06:40This whole late-night penitent thing.

0:06:40 > 0:06:42What do we know about Father Morton?

0:06:42 > 0:06:43Nothing at all.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46I mean, I haven't set foot in church since I arrived here,

0:06:46 > 0:06:47except for today.

0:06:47 > 0:06:50There's Morton's death certificate. You'd better get Blake to sign it.

0:06:50 > 0:06:53Well, hang on a moment.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55Thank you, Charlie.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57I might need to perform an autopsy.

0:06:57 > 0:06:59The Church doesn't want one, Blake.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02And besides, they're expensive and, in this case, unnecessary.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04Boss.

0:07:05 > 0:07:07I'd like to speak to someone.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09How can we help you, ma'am?

0:07:09 > 0:07:12It's about Father Morton. I'm his housekeeper.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14Was.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17I'm the reason he died.

0:07:17 > 0:07:18Right.

0:07:21 > 0:07:25Cyril...Father Morton went to meet a penitent

0:07:25 > 0:07:27at the church late last night.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30And who was that penitent?

0:07:30 > 0:07:31I don't know.

0:07:31 > 0:07:37I overheard you saying that he died of an allergic reaction?

0:07:37 > 0:07:39Yes, that's right.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41I gave him some fruit on his way out.

0:07:41 > 0:07:45It was new to the stores. I hadn't seen it before.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47I knew he had an allergy.

0:07:47 > 0:07:50I shouldn't have given it to him.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52What kind of fruit was it?

0:07:52 > 0:07:56I gave him a pear, which I knew he wasn't allergic to.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59The other was a Chinese gooseberry.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02I did this, didn't I?

0:08:03 > 0:08:05Evelyn, fruit allergies

0:08:05 > 0:08:08can bring about a severe reaction, certainly.

0:08:08 > 0:08:12But having said that, so can a number of other things.

0:08:13 > 0:08:15I imagine we'll do an autopsy, then.

0:08:19 > 0:08:22Dr Blake, this is Mr Michaels.

0:08:22 > 0:08:24He's a surgeon here at the hospital.

0:08:24 > 0:08:25- Ah.- Hello.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27Dr Harvey's said only good things about you.

0:08:27 > 0:08:31Really? Dr Harvey, you're too kind. It's a pleasure.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33Mr Michaels diagnosed Father Morton

0:08:33 > 0:08:35with a brain tumour several months ago.

0:08:35 > 0:08:36He'd like to section the brain.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38See exactly where the tumour is?

0:08:38 > 0:08:40Yeah, when you're finished, I'll remove the brain

0:08:40 > 0:08:42and encase it in formalin overnight to fix it.

0:08:42 > 0:08:45- Then I'll section it. - The Church has consented.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48Right. Well, then, we'd best get started.

0:08:49 > 0:08:52You mentioned a possible food allergy on the phone.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54Yes, anaphylactic shock.

0:08:54 > 0:08:58Morton's housekeeper is afraid he may have died from eating fruit.

0:08:58 > 0:09:00A Chinese gooseberry.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03Kiwi fruit. It's from New Zealand.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06He could have easily been allergic and not known it.

0:09:06 > 0:09:07If it is a food allergy,

0:09:07 > 0:09:10we'll be looking for a pulmonary oedema in the lungs.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12Yes, or cerebral oedema.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14I'll start by making an incision into the thorax.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16- Very good. - Hey, wait a minute.

0:09:20 > 0:09:21What are these?

0:09:23 > 0:09:24Urticaria perhaps.

0:09:24 > 0:09:26Hives caused by his allergies.

0:09:26 > 0:09:27Yes.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29Bear with me a moment.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36I noticed something here. Look.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44Look at that.

0:09:44 > 0:09:45A bee stinger.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49There's at least 20 stings here.

0:09:49 > 0:09:52Do you happen to know if Morton was allergic to apitoxin?

0:09:52 > 0:09:55I never operated on him. I'll have to check the file.

0:09:55 > 0:09:57Because if he was allergic to bee stings,

0:09:57 > 0:10:00there's no way he'd survive being stung this many times.

0:10:02 > 0:10:04Perhaps we should check the upper airways.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19Charlie.

0:10:21 > 0:10:23I didn't realise you were Catholic.

0:10:23 > 0:10:25Well, I'm not a very good one.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29- You find anything? - Oh, just more questions really.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32If Morton was being stung by bees,

0:10:32 > 0:10:34why didn't he simply flee the confessional booth?

0:10:36 > 0:10:41As you know, the priest would take his seat on this side of the booth,

0:10:41 > 0:10:45the penitent right next door.

0:10:45 > 0:10:48Well, as far as I can remember.

0:10:48 > 0:10:49Hm.

0:10:52 > 0:10:56Doc, you got any ideas what's wrong with the boss?

0:10:56 > 0:10:58Your guess is as good as mine, Charlie.

0:11:01 > 0:11:04Yeah. Yeah, I reckon there's something he's not saying.

0:11:04 > 0:11:11Well, not exactly transparent, our Matthew Lawson.

0:11:12 > 0:11:13Come have a look at this, Charlie.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18Father Morton's killers.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20And the piece of glass?

0:11:20 > 0:11:22Kept in a jar, perhaps?

0:11:22 > 0:11:25Charlie, help me move this pew across to the door, would you?

0:11:30 > 0:11:35Well, that scratch has definitely been made by this pew, I'd say.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37And look at the height of it, Charlie.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39All they'd need to do

0:11:39 > 0:11:43is position the back of the pew under the door handle here.

0:11:43 > 0:11:47I think the penitent waited in their side of the booth

0:11:47 > 0:11:50until Father Morton was seated.

0:11:50 > 0:11:55Then they opened the door to Morton and they threw the jar of bees in.

0:11:55 > 0:11:56GLASS SHATTERS

0:11:56 > 0:11:58Then they barricaded the door.

0:11:58 > 0:12:00No! Agh!

0:12:00 > 0:12:02BEES BUZZ

0:12:02 > 0:12:03Help!

0:12:08 > 0:12:12It would have been quite dark in here last night, wouldn't it?

0:12:12 > 0:12:15Yes, perhaps only a few lights on. Why?

0:12:15 > 0:12:18Well, someone was reading the Bible in candlelight,

0:12:18 > 0:12:21maybe while Father Morton was fighting for his life.

0:12:22 > 0:12:23Right.

0:12:23 > 0:12:26Well, that's evidence, Charlie. We'll need to take it with us.

0:12:26 > 0:12:28Whoever killed Father Morton,

0:12:28 > 0:12:31they knew, they knew he was allergic to bee stings.

0:12:43 > 0:12:44Charlie.

0:12:46 > 0:12:49You have got to be joking.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Father Emery?

0:13:06 > 0:13:07Yes?

0:13:07 > 0:13:08You keep bees?

0:13:08 > 0:13:10Yes, that's right.

0:13:10 > 0:13:12You're the only one that handles them?

0:13:12 > 0:13:15Yes. It's my apiary.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17I set it up when I arrived around six months ago.

0:13:17 > 0:13:19Right.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22Were you aware Father Morton had a bee allergy?

0:13:22 > 0:13:24Yes.

0:13:24 > 0:13:26But Cyril never came near the apiary.

0:13:26 > 0:13:29- That was a given. - I see.

0:13:29 > 0:13:32The autopsy revealed he died from bee stings.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35Now you say you were aware of his allergy,

0:13:35 > 0:13:39and yet you set up your apiary where he spent most of his time.

0:13:39 > 0:13:44I spoke to Cyril about setting up the apiary and he was fine about it.

0:13:44 > 0:13:46I'll talk to the Superintendent.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48He'll most likely want you to come down to the station

0:13:48 > 0:13:50to answer more questions.

0:13:50 > 0:13:51I think you'll find he won't.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54And why is that?

0:13:54 > 0:13:56Because your Superintendent knows better

0:13:56 > 0:13:58than to point the blame too soon.

0:14:01 > 0:14:02Gentlemen.

0:14:10 > 0:14:11MATTHEW: Thank you.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18What does the boss say?

0:14:20 > 0:14:22Stay away from the church.

0:14:22 > 0:14:23Oh, come on!

0:14:23 > 0:14:25Once we found out about the bee stings,

0:14:25 > 0:14:27we had to revisit the crime scene.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30- Yeah, he also said don't steal any more Bibles.- Oh.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33I suggested we bring in Emery for questioning.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35- And? - The Archbishop in Melbourne

0:14:35 > 0:14:37apparently suggested that we didn't do that.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39Oh, of course.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41What about that mark on the floor, right by the confessional booth?

0:14:41 > 0:14:44Lawson doesn't believe Emery would use his own bees

0:14:44 > 0:14:45to kill a priest.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48Really? Why is that? Because he's a man of the bloody cloth?

0:14:48 > 0:14:49We know this is murder,

0:14:49 > 0:14:52but we have to be damn sure before we accuse a priest.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54Go and interview as many of the parishioners as possible.

0:14:54 > 0:14:56And if you could avoid annoying too many people today,

0:14:56 > 0:14:59- I'd appreciate it. - Look...- Blake!

0:15:12 > 0:15:14Lucien.

0:15:20 > 0:15:24I've been asked to sew the sacred linens for Father Morton's funeral.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26Well, me and the rest of the sewing circle.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29They'll be coming over this evening, if that's all right.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Yes, of course.

0:15:32 > 0:15:36Father Morton baptised Jack and young Christopher.

0:15:39 > 0:15:40I am sorry, Jean.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45You'll find out who did this?

0:15:45 > 0:15:47I promise you I'll do my best.

0:15:53 > 0:15:57Evelyn Toohey must be beside herself with grief.

0:15:57 > 0:15:58Yes.

0:16:00 > 0:16:01Tell me about her.

0:16:03 > 0:16:08Evelyn came to the church after her father was sent to prison for theft.

0:16:08 > 0:16:12I think she really needed to believe in something after that,

0:16:12 > 0:16:15which is when she found Father Morton.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17I don't know who she'll turn to now.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19Well, God I imagine.

0:16:19 > 0:16:23Huh, I didn't think you were on his side.

0:16:23 > 0:16:24No, but Evelyn is.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29If I were you, I would speak with Evelyn again.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31She was his housekeeper.

0:16:31 > 0:16:34She probably knew him better than he knew himself.

0:16:38 > 0:16:40Evelyn, this is very kind of you.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42I really wasn't expecting lunch.

0:16:42 > 0:16:46I'm just glad the food's not going to waste.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51Bless us, oh, Lord, and these your gifts,

0:16:51 > 0:16:53which we are about to receive from your bounty.

0:16:53 > 0:16:55Through Christ our Lord, amen.

0:16:55 > 0:16:56Amen.

0:16:58 > 0:17:00I'm not sure who I'll cook for now.

0:17:00 > 0:17:03Or even if Father Emery will keep me on.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06I am just the housekeeper.

0:17:09 > 0:17:13Father Morton left that night to meet with a penitent.

0:17:13 > 0:17:14That's right.

0:17:14 > 0:17:17To be honest, it's been a long time since I...

0:17:19 > 0:17:23Anyhow, I can't imagine late-night confessions

0:17:23 > 0:17:25would be standard practice.

0:17:25 > 0:17:27I'd never known anyone to call that late.

0:17:27 > 0:17:32And tell me, you worked for Father Morton for a long time?

0:17:32 > 0:17:33Yes.

0:17:34 > 0:17:37I never really understood the importance of religion

0:17:37 > 0:17:39before meeting Cyril.

0:17:39 > 0:17:42Sometimes it helps to put a face to it.

0:17:42 > 0:17:46It sounds as though you were both very, very good friends, though.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49We didn't always get along,

0:17:49 > 0:17:52but I always tried to keep Cyril's good name intact.

0:17:52 > 0:17:57Especially since his sermons had lost focus lately.

0:17:58 > 0:18:02Recently, I'd overheard that Father Emery

0:18:02 > 0:18:06wanted Cyril to retire from his position early.

0:18:06 > 0:18:11And I can't say that he was altogether wrong in suggesting it.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15Some parishioners even walked out of the last sermon.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17Do you know who?

0:18:17 > 0:18:20Ben and Celia Lloyd.

0:18:21 > 0:18:25Right. Do you recall anything else?

0:18:25 > 0:18:28I was waiting after the mass.

0:18:28 > 0:18:31I always did, should Cyril need anything.

0:18:32 > 0:18:35This time, Ben Lloyd was arguing with him.

0:18:35 > 0:18:39I don't know what about, but it looked quite heated.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41Right.

0:18:41 > 0:18:45Evelyn, what was that last sermon about?

0:18:47 > 0:18:48Adultery.

0:18:50 > 0:18:52- WOMAN:- 'I'd left the stove on.'

0:18:52 > 0:18:55And that's what you were discussing when you left the church?

0:18:55 > 0:18:58I was worried we'd come home to find our house burnt to the ground.

0:18:58 > 0:19:00And you had every right to be annoyed.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03But I had no right to raise my voice.

0:19:05 > 0:19:09Witnesses say they saw you talking to Father Morton after mass.

0:19:11 > 0:19:12Not me.

0:19:12 > 0:19:14They must have seen somebody else.

0:19:16 > 0:19:20Tell you what, there's some lovely pictures here.

0:19:20 > 0:19:22Thank you.

0:19:23 > 0:19:25- Oh. - Are you all right?

0:19:26 > 0:19:28Yes, I'm fine.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34You both attend Sacred Heart regularly?

0:19:34 > 0:19:37- Every Sunday. - Any other times?

0:19:37 > 0:19:41Celia would see Father Morton on a regular basis.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43Confessions, various church activities.

0:19:43 > 0:19:46She even visited him in hospital once.

0:19:46 > 0:19:49Really? And what was that for?

0:19:50 > 0:19:52It was for a bee sting.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55His doctor suggested some bed rest.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57I took him a casserole.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59Right.

0:19:59 > 0:20:03Tell me, Father Morton's bee allergy,

0:20:03 > 0:20:05was that common knowledge?

0:20:05 > 0:20:08No. He kept it to himself.

0:20:08 > 0:20:13It was just a small group of us from the sewing circle who visited him.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15Evelyn, Dorothy, Jean and myself.

0:20:15 > 0:20:17Right.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19So the women from the sewing circle

0:20:19 > 0:20:21all knew about Morton's allergy to bees.

0:20:21 > 0:20:24As did Ben Lloyd, and Father Emery of course.

0:20:24 > 0:20:25And Mrs Beazley.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28Well, I think we can safely rule her out, Charlie.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32We know they're just playing happy families in there.

0:20:32 > 0:20:34What, because of that photo frame turned upside down?

0:20:34 > 0:20:38Yes. I bet that photo was their wedding photo.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41And what about that folded blanket on the couch?

0:20:41 > 0:20:43Oh, because one of them slept there last night?

0:20:43 > 0:20:45I'd say Ben.

0:20:45 > 0:20:48But this business about the stove being left on -

0:20:48 > 0:20:49no, no, no, no, no.

0:20:49 > 0:20:53People spend nights on couches over much, much bigger issues.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55What, money?

0:20:55 > 0:20:58Or...infidelity.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00The sermon they walked out of?

0:21:00 > 0:21:02Precisely.

0:21:02 > 0:21:06But is that enough of a motive for Ben to kill Father Morton?

0:21:06 > 0:21:10Well...I'm not sure yet.

0:21:10 > 0:21:15Either way, he wasn't particularly happy with Morton's last sermon.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18- Mm. Oh, Doc. - Yes?

0:21:22 > 0:21:23Got it from the library.

0:21:23 > 0:21:26Oh, Charlie, well done.

0:21:26 > 0:21:27- Thank you. - Mm.

0:21:41 > 0:21:45Ladies, I have some news.

0:21:45 > 0:21:47- I'm pregnant. - Ohh!

0:21:47 > 0:21:49Oh, Celia, congratulations.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51- Ohh! - That's wonderful news.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53Thank you.

0:21:53 > 0:21:56It's so unexpected.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58Oh, you two must be very excited.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00'Oh, yes.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03'Oh, Ben will make a wonderful father.

0:22:04 > 0:22:05'A first child.'

0:22:05 > 0:22:07It's such an exciting time.

0:22:09 > 0:22:12It is cause for celebration, you know.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15Celia, what's wrong?

0:22:15 > 0:22:17I'm not much in the mood.

0:22:17 > 0:22:21It seems unfair considering Father Morton's passing, and poor Evelyn.

0:22:22 > 0:22:24Is there something else?

0:22:26 > 0:22:28The truth is, I haven't told Ben.

0:22:29 > 0:22:33Ladies. I am sorry to interrupt.

0:22:33 > 0:22:36I seem to have misplaced my newspaper.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39I threw out this afternoon's newspaper.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43- I see. - As I do every evening.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46Lucien, this is Dorothy Turner.

0:22:46 > 0:22:50Ah! Dorothy, an absolute pleasure.

0:22:50 > 0:22:52Lovely to see you here, Mrs Lloyd.

0:22:52 > 0:22:55- Thank you. - I trust you're feeling better.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59Actually, Doctor, I'm expecting.

0:22:59 > 0:23:02LUCIEN GASPS

0:23:02 > 0:23:05Well, congratulations. How about that?

0:23:05 > 0:23:07Wonderful news.

0:23:08 > 0:23:13And I see the church linens are coming along beautifully.

0:23:13 > 0:23:16We can thank Dorothy for being such a taskmaster.

0:23:16 > 0:23:19We'll be lucky to get this made before the funeral.

0:23:19 > 0:23:20Ah.

0:23:23 > 0:23:26Well, in that case, I should leave you to it, eh?

0:23:27 > 0:23:29Ladies.

0:23:32 > 0:23:33See you next time.

0:23:36 > 0:23:38It was so lovely to have you here.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40- Thank you, Jean. - Bye, Dorothy.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42You take care of that step there.

0:23:44 > 0:23:46- Celia. - Jean.

0:23:46 > 0:23:47Look after yourself.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59I trust you got what you wanted?

0:23:59 > 0:24:00Hmm?

0:24:00 > 0:24:05Oh, the paper. I'll, um, well, I'll see tomorrow's edition.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08I don't appreciate you treating my friends as suspects.

0:24:09 > 0:24:13I imagine you can do as you like. You're not accountable to anybody.

0:24:13 > 0:24:14I'm accountable to you, Jean.

0:24:14 > 0:24:18I know you want me to find out what happened to Father Morton.

0:24:18 > 0:24:22Unless of course you think God was responsible.

0:24:22 > 0:24:25Well, he is, in some ways.

0:24:25 > 0:24:26Well, I admire you, Jean.

0:24:28 > 0:24:32Being able to forgive God so effortlessly.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34What about your lovely friend Dorothy?

0:24:34 > 0:24:36An injury of hers, it's permanent, is it?

0:24:36 > 0:24:37Yes.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40I wonder, has she forgiven God?

0:24:40 > 0:24:43It's not God she needs to forgive. It's her late husband.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45He was a horrible and violent man

0:24:45 > 0:24:48and on one occasion, he shoved her down a flight of stairs.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51She's always kept that to herself.

0:24:52 > 0:24:54Goodness me.

0:24:54 > 0:24:55Well, there you are.

0:24:55 > 0:24:57Proof that man can generate evil all on his own.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59What happened to the husband?

0:24:59 > 0:25:02He died in a car accident soon after that.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05- Mysterious ways. - Mm.

0:25:05 > 0:25:08There's something about Celia that I should tell you.

0:25:08 > 0:25:09KNOCK AT DOOR

0:25:09 > 0:25:11Hold that thought. I'll get it.

0:25:18 > 0:25:19Drink?

0:25:19 > 0:25:21Mad if we don't.

0:25:21 > 0:25:23Come on through.

0:25:25 > 0:25:28- Jean. - Oh, Matthew, what a lovely surprise.

0:25:28 > 0:25:31- Hope I'm not interrupting. - No, never.

0:25:31 > 0:25:33In fact, you're here just in time

0:25:33 > 0:25:35to help settle a small debate on religion.

0:25:35 > 0:25:42Now, do you think God or man is responsible for evil in the world?

0:25:43 > 0:25:45Man.

0:25:45 > 0:25:47Well, Lucien, that means you've turned your back on God

0:25:47 > 0:25:50and Matthew's turned his back on man.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52I'm not sure what's left to have faith in.

0:25:52 > 0:25:54- Whiskey. - Ha.

0:25:55 > 0:25:58So, Matthew, what's your secret?

0:25:58 > 0:25:59Sorry?

0:25:59 > 0:26:01The secret to remaining detached

0:26:01 > 0:26:08while at the same time being entirely consumed by the case.

0:26:08 > 0:26:12Well, uh, don't be entirely consumed by work.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15Doesn't always give back.

0:26:15 > 0:26:16Ah, that's sound advice.

0:26:16 > 0:26:20Well, speaking of being entirely consumed by work,

0:26:20 > 0:26:23Jean, you were going to tell me something when Matthew arrived.

0:26:23 > 0:26:24Oh.

0:26:25 > 0:26:30Yes, Celia admitted to be being very upset with Father Morton.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33Apparently she'd told him her sins in confession

0:26:33 > 0:26:37and she's sure that he's referenced those confessions

0:26:37 > 0:26:39in his last sermon.

0:26:39 > 0:26:41Well, that's interesting.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49Look, let's say...

0:26:49 > 0:26:51that's Father Emery.

0:26:53 > 0:26:54This is Father Morton.

0:26:56 > 0:27:00And these are some of the congregation

0:27:00 > 0:27:04who knew about Morton's bee allergy.

0:27:04 > 0:27:07Now, there's Celia and Ben Lloyd.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11Then we have Dorothy Turner.

0:27:13 > 0:27:19Now, the Lloyds walked out during Morton's last sermon,

0:27:19 > 0:27:21which focused on infidelity.

0:27:21 > 0:27:26Now, Celia - she was the one who confessed regularly.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28I suspect she told Father Morton,

0:27:28 > 0:27:31he took that information and wove it into his sermon.

0:27:31 > 0:27:34Now, let's not forget Dorothy Turner.

0:27:34 > 0:27:39She has a secret of her own about how she came to be disabled.

0:27:39 > 0:27:43And perhaps Morton was going to reveal her secret too.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47The point is,

0:27:47 > 0:27:54whoever killed Morton, I think had one hell of a secret to protect.

0:27:54 > 0:27:56A secret worth killing for?

0:27:56 > 0:27:58Makes you wonder, though, doesn't it?

0:28:00 > 0:28:02What was Father Morton thinking,

0:28:02 > 0:28:05betraying his parishioners like that?

0:28:05 > 0:28:07That's if he was thinking.

0:28:07 > 0:28:10Good God, Matthew, you're quite right.

0:28:17 > 0:28:18Thank you. Ah.

0:28:38 > 0:28:40DOOR OPENS

0:28:43 > 0:28:44Sorry to keep you, Dr Blake.

0:28:44 > 0:28:48No, not at all. Good to see you, Mr Michaels.

0:28:48 > 0:28:50You mentioned on the phone

0:28:50 > 0:28:53that you needed more detail on Morton's brain tumour.

0:28:53 > 0:28:57Yes. I was curious as to the exact location of the tumour.

0:28:57 > 0:29:02I was going through Morton's medical history and I found a name.

0:29:02 > 0:29:04Thomas Blake.

0:29:04 > 0:29:06Any relation?

0:29:06 > 0:29:08Yes, my father.

0:29:08 > 0:29:11- He was Morton's doctor for a while. - Oh, I wasn't aware.

0:29:12 > 0:29:14Morton's tumour was in the early stages

0:29:14 > 0:29:17of infiltrating his frontal lobe.

0:29:17 > 0:29:18Right.

0:29:18 > 0:29:22Which means disinhibition was potentially a factor.

0:29:22 > 0:29:25Going off on verbal tangents, making inappropriate comments,

0:29:25 > 0:29:26poor impulse control.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29Not the sort of problem a priest would want to have.

0:29:29 > 0:29:31PHONE RINGS Excuse me.

0:29:31 > 0:29:32Certainly.

0:29:32 > 0:29:34Yes.

0:29:35 > 0:29:37It's for you.

0:29:38 > 0:29:39Thank you.

0:29:41 > 0:29:42Blake.

0:29:45 > 0:29:47Just calm down!

0:29:47 > 0:29:49Go on! Get out of me bloody house!

0:29:52 > 0:29:53Bloody settle down!

0:29:54 > 0:29:56Hey, hey. Calm down, mate.

0:29:56 > 0:29:58Get over here!

0:29:58 > 0:30:00- Get away from me! - It's over!

0:30:00 > 0:30:03- Under control, Charlie? - Yeah, she's in the bedroom, Doc.

0:30:04 > 0:30:05Celia?

0:30:05 > 0:30:07It's got nothing to do with you!

0:30:07 > 0:30:09Oh, Celia.

0:30:09 > 0:30:11Are you all right?

0:30:11 > 0:30:13- SOBBING:- My stomach!

0:30:13 > 0:30:15She got what she deserved.

0:30:15 > 0:30:16Let's pop you up on the bed.

0:30:16 > 0:30:18Pop you up here.

0:30:18 > 0:30:20Let me see that tummy of yours.

0:30:22 > 0:30:24Oh, for God's sake.

0:30:25 > 0:30:28All right, I'm here. I'm here, all right?

0:30:28 > 0:30:30Do you think you can walk with me?

0:30:30 > 0:30:31- Yes.- Yes?

0:30:31 > 0:30:34Good girl. That's it. Come on.

0:30:40 > 0:30:42I was in the area. I got the call.

0:30:42 > 0:30:45As soon as I heard the address, I got the station to call you.

0:30:45 > 0:30:47Good man.

0:30:47 > 0:30:51Well, it looks like Celia got a couple of decent shots in as well.

0:30:51 > 0:30:53That was me.

0:30:53 > 0:30:55Right.

0:30:55 > 0:30:56Well...

0:30:57 > 0:31:02..Ben was clearly very focused on what it was he set out to do.

0:31:02 > 0:31:05What? Beat his wife to a pulp?

0:31:05 > 0:31:10No. He was aiming fairly and squarely for her abdomen.

0:31:10 > 0:31:13He didn't set out to hurt her as such.

0:31:13 > 0:31:15He wanted to kill the baby.

0:31:15 > 0:31:17Celia was having an affair. She told Morton.

0:31:17 > 0:31:19Morton revealed her secret

0:31:19 > 0:31:22and then, then she announced she was pregnant.

0:31:22 > 0:31:25It seems like a good enough reason to want to kill Morton.

0:31:25 > 0:31:28And Ben knew of Morton's bee allergy.

0:31:31 > 0:31:33Celia.

0:31:33 > 0:31:36- We'll come back tomorrow. - Yes.

0:31:41 > 0:31:44I'm glad Celia and the baby are all right.

0:31:44 > 0:31:46- Horrible business. - It is indeed.

0:31:48 > 0:31:52Jean, I wanted to give you these.

0:31:52 > 0:31:56I know your Dr Blake is looking into Cyril's passing.

0:31:56 > 0:32:00They're complaint letters from Father Emery to the Archbishop.

0:32:00 > 0:32:03I overheard Father Emery talking to Cyril,

0:32:03 > 0:32:05saying he was going to complain.

0:32:06 > 0:32:09Father Emery gave me the letters to post,

0:32:09 > 0:32:12but I just couldn't, knowing what was in them.

0:32:12 > 0:32:15Now I think they might actually help the police.

0:32:15 > 0:32:17I'll make sure the Doctor receives them.

0:32:20 > 0:32:24So Father Emery wanted Morton removed from the parish?

0:32:24 > 0:32:27Well, that's if Evelyn's telling the truth.

0:32:27 > 0:32:29Yeah.

0:32:29 > 0:32:31I did a background check on her.

0:32:31 > 0:32:33Confirms what we know -

0:32:33 > 0:32:35that her father went to prison for theft.

0:32:35 > 0:32:39He stole a substantial amount of money and a porcelain doll.

0:32:40 > 0:32:42A porcelain doll, Charlie.

0:32:44 > 0:32:46Not something you'd imagine a grown man

0:32:46 > 0:32:49would be particularly interested in.

0:32:49 > 0:32:53Perhaps Evelyn stole the doll and she let her father take the fall.

0:32:53 > 0:32:55And if she lied about that,

0:32:55 > 0:32:58she could well have been involved in Morton's death.

0:32:58 > 0:33:01But she came into the station and confessed to killing him.

0:33:01 > 0:33:04I mean, she wouldn't do that if she was innocent.

0:33:04 > 0:33:08Charlie, confessing, that's a wonderful alibi.

0:33:08 > 0:33:10She might have written these very letters.

0:33:10 > 0:33:11Maybe we should steam them open.

0:33:11 > 0:33:14That's the Queen's mail, Blake, and we don't have a warrant.

0:33:14 > 0:33:17I suggest you delve deeper into Ben Lloyd's past.

0:33:17 > 0:33:19Yes, sir.

0:33:22 > 0:33:24Lawson, what's going on?

0:33:24 > 0:33:26Nothing.

0:33:26 > 0:33:29I just want to make sure that Father Emery's accorded due process.

0:33:29 > 0:33:31- But those letters... - Due process!

0:33:34 > 0:33:36If you go off on one of your tangents,

0:33:36 > 0:33:38the Archbishop will be all over us.

0:33:40 > 0:33:47Well, what if Charlie and I just had a friendly chat with Emery

0:33:47 > 0:33:50- and not mention the letters? - Feel free.

0:33:50 > 0:33:52Matthew, if you don't mind me saying...

0:33:52 > 0:33:56you've spent an awful lot of time on the phone today.

0:33:56 > 0:33:58I'm just asking, is everything all right?

0:34:03 > 0:34:05HE SNIFFLES

0:34:08 > 0:34:09It's not your problem.

0:34:19 > 0:34:23I had noticed that Father Morton was struggling with his sermons.

0:34:23 > 0:34:24Yes.

0:34:24 > 0:34:26It's been reported that confessional secrets

0:34:26 > 0:34:29were revealed during those sermons.

0:34:29 > 0:34:31You don't seem surprised, Father.

0:34:33 > 0:34:35I had my suspicions.

0:34:35 > 0:34:40Canon law prevents a priest from betraying the penitent in any way.

0:34:40 > 0:34:42Yes, of course.

0:34:42 > 0:34:43You wanted to report it?

0:34:43 > 0:34:46Yes, I wrote letters to the Archbishop in Melbourne,

0:34:46 > 0:34:48but I never received a response.

0:34:48 > 0:34:49Apart from those sermons,

0:34:49 > 0:34:53did you feel overall that he wasn't performing his duties as a priest?

0:34:53 > 0:34:56Latin is not a language people understand anymore.

0:34:56 > 0:35:00Heh. And I'm guessing the Archbishop remained silent?

0:35:00 > 0:35:01Yes.

0:35:01 > 0:35:04So I kept an eye on the Father.

0:35:04 > 0:35:07I expected that at some point he would retire.

0:35:07 > 0:35:10And you would have been next in line to take over.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12As the only other priest here, yes.

0:35:12 > 0:35:16That would have been a step up for you, wouldn't it?

0:35:16 > 0:35:18I'm only human.

0:35:19 > 0:35:22But my concern was for the Church.

0:35:22 > 0:35:24I was trying to deal with the matter

0:35:24 > 0:35:27in a way that did not damage anyone's reputation.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33Did Morton ever complain about you?

0:35:33 > 0:35:34I'm sure he did.

0:35:36 > 0:35:40I'm sure he felt that my approach was perhaps too modern.

0:35:40 > 0:35:43So you didn't always see eye to eye?

0:35:43 > 0:35:48We can still love our neighbours, even when we disagree with them.

0:35:48 > 0:35:51I can get angry at God sometimes,

0:35:51 > 0:35:54but it doesn't mean that I'll walk out on him.

0:35:55 > 0:36:00Do you have any idea why someone would want to kill Father Morton?

0:36:00 > 0:36:01No.

0:36:01 > 0:36:03Murder is a mortal sin.

0:36:03 > 0:36:07And my poor Ligurian bees just make honey.

0:36:07 > 0:36:09They don't kill people.

0:36:11 > 0:36:12Ligurian bees?

0:36:14 > 0:36:16Yes, that's right.

0:36:16 > 0:36:20Apis mellifera syriaca.

0:36:22 > 0:36:25The bees we found are Cyprian.

0:36:27 > 0:36:30Emery's bees, Ligurian.

0:36:30 > 0:36:32Right.

0:36:32 > 0:36:35Well, I'll try to find out who keeps Cyprian bees in town.

0:36:36 > 0:36:39In the meantime, listen to this.

0:36:39 > 0:36:43That passage in the Bible, the page with the candle wax on it?

0:36:43 > 0:36:44It's Romans 7:7.

0:36:46 > 0:36:52"God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin but by the law -

0:36:52 > 0:36:53"for I had not known lust,

0:36:53 > 0:36:57"except the law had said, 'Thou shalt not covet.'"

0:36:57 > 0:36:59Covet, Charlie.

0:36:59 > 0:37:01Covet.

0:37:01 > 0:37:04Father Emery wanted Father Morton's job.

0:37:04 > 0:37:05Exactly.

0:37:07 > 0:37:08Are these all of them?

0:37:08 > 0:37:10All except for one.

0:37:10 > 0:37:13Father Emery's got Morton's last sermon.

0:37:13 > 0:37:16He wants to read it at the funeral as a tribute, I gather.

0:37:16 > 0:37:18Well, this one,

0:37:18 > 0:37:22he seems to be addressing certain members of the congregation.

0:37:22 > 0:37:26Listen. "This Sunday's gospel presents us with a parable

0:37:26 > 0:37:29"that, in certain respects, has important contemporary relevance.

0:37:29 > 0:37:33"The parable of the dishonest housewife."

0:37:33 > 0:37:35He goes on and on and on.

0:37:35 > 0:37:37Doesn't name names.

0:37:37 > 0:37:40- Well, that could be any housewife. - True.

0:37:40 > 0:37:41Listen to this one.

0:37:41 > 0:37:43"The Corrupt Means of Getting Gain.

0:37:43 > 0:37:48"This is by taking that which does not belong to us as our own,

0:37:48 > 0:37:50"also known as stealing." It goes on.

0:37:50 > 0:37:52"God has condemned this practice

0:37:52 > 0:37:56"and has declared that his children should leave it behind

0:37:56 > 0:37:58"with the other works of the flesh."

0:37:58 > 0:38:00Ephesians 4:28.

0:38:00 > 0:38:03I think you made a mistake going into medicine, Doctor.

0:38:03 > 0:38:05Mm, I can see it too.

0:38:05 > 0:38:07The voice. The delivery.

0:38:07 > 0:38:10Well, thank you so much, Mattie.

0:38:10 > 0:38:12But the delivery wasn't the point.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14What is the point?

0:38:14 > 0:38:17I need to know if this sermon, or any sermon of Father Morton's,

0:38:17 > 0:38:19relates to one of our suspects.

0:38:19 > 0:38:21Oh, not that I can tell.

0:38:21 > 0:38:23But these don't appear to be only sermons,

0:38:23 > 0:38:27but notes that he's taken on individual people.

0:38:27 > 0:38:28Yes.

0:38:28 > 0:38:30I mean, here for example.

0:38:30 > 0:38:33I'm sure this says "housekeeper."

0:38:33 > 0:38:36The housekeeper was diabetic.

0:38:36 > 0:38:39Evelyn Toohey's diabetic. I've treated her at the hospital.

0:38:39 > 0:38:41Right.

0:38:41 > 0:38:42And look, it says here,

0:38:42 > 0:38:47"The housekeeper committed theft, stole a porcelain doll,

0:38:47 > 0:38:49"her father took the blame."

0:38:50 > 0:38:54That sounds like Evelyn. She collects porcelain dolls.

0:38:54 > 0:38:56So it's fair to say, then,

0:38:56 > 0:38:58that she may have confessed that to Father Morton.

0:38:58 > 0:39:00Now the sermons themselves,

0:39:00 > 0:39:04the way they're worded, I recall one about coveting.

0:39:04 > 0:39:06- Here it is. - Ah.

0:39:06 > 0:39:09He gave that sermon about four weeks ago.

0:39:09 > 0:39:12And that's the one about adultery.

0:39:12 > 0:39:14Right. Which was last week's sermon.

0:39:14 > 0:39:17And the sermon that was to be given next week was...

0:39:20 > 0:39:22- The Sanctity of Life. - Thank you.

0:39:22 > 0:39:24So that's three of the Ten Commandments.

0:39:24 > 0:39:26Yes.

0:39:26 > 0:39:30Thou shall not commit adultery, thou shall not covet thy neighbour.

0:39:30 > 0:39:32And the Sanctity of Life could also be translated

0:39:32 > 0:39:36as one of the other commandments - thou shall not kill.

0:39:36 > 0:39:38Yes, of course.

0:39:40 > 0:39:43Thou shall not kill.

0:39:43 > 0:39:45Right. Look at this.

0:39:45 > 0:39:49Father Emery coveted Morton's job, yes?

0:39:49 > 0:39:53The Lloyds, well, Celia - adultery.

0:39:53 > 0:39:56Evelyn Toohey, a thief.

0:39:58 > 0:40:00Whoever killed Morton

0:40:00 > 0:40:04must have known he was working his way through the commandments.

0:40:04 > 0:40:09And when Morton posted the topic of what was to be that next sermon,

0:40:09 > 0:40:14the killer knew that he or she was next in line to be exposed.

0:40:14 > 0:40:16And here's the thing.

0:40:17 > 0:40:21That very sermon is about to be read out at Morton's funeral.

0:40:21 > 0:40:23So Father Emery could be...

0:40:23 > 0:40:26Next.

0:40:26 > 0:40:29So all of his sermons were based on the Ten Commandments?

0:40:29 > 0:40:31The most recent ones were.

0:40:31 > 0:40:34So based on our theory, if killing was the topic of the sermon,

0:40:34 > 0:40:37whoever killed Morton must have killed before.

0:40:37 > 0:40:40Because they confessed their first crime with Father Morton?

0:40:40 > 0:40:43Yes. They had to stop him before he gave that sermon.

0:40:46 > 0:40:50Oh, I did a background check on our suspects.

0:40:50 > 0:40:52No, there's nothing on any of them.

0:40:52 > 0:40:54Really? Nothing?

0:40:54 > 0:40:55Well, there is one thing.

0:40:55 > 0:40:57Uh, Dorothy Turner's husband, John.

0:40:57 > 0:40:59He didn't die from the accident.

0:40:59 > 0:41:02He died a few days later, from surgery.

0:41:02 > 0:41:04Heart complications from the accident.

0:41:04 > 0:41:05Right.

0:41:05 > 0:41:09Oh, and here's that list that you wanted

0:41:09 > 0:41:10with all the apiaries in the area.

0:41:12 > 0:41:15There's only one beekeeper with those Cyprian bees.

0:41:15 > 0:41:16We need to find Emery.

0:41:16 > 0:41:20He'll be getting ready to deliver that final sermon of Morton's.

0:41:20 > 0:41:22Whoever killed Morton

0:41:22 > 0:41:26could potentially target Emery at any point prior to the funeral.

0:41:26 > 0:41:29And quite frankly, we could use his help with this list of bees.

0:41:32 > 0:41:36Dr Blake. What can I do for you?

0:41:36 > 0:41:38Hello, Father.

0:41:38 > 0:41:40Just a few more questions, really.

0:41:40 > 0:41:47Um...some weeks ago, Father Morton spoke about coveting in a sermon,

0:41:47 > 0:41:52and I wondered, did he make specific reference to you?

0:41:52 > 0:41:55Because he thought that I wanted his parish?

0:41:55 > 0:41:56Yes.

0:41:56 > 0:42:00Do you know "Thou shall not covet" is about the only commandment

0:42:00 > 0:42:04which focuses on one's intention and not on one's action?

0:42:04 > 0:42:09I may have wanted Father Morton's position, his parish,

0:42:09 > 0:42:11but all I did was write letters to Melbourne.

0:42:13 > 0:42:19We found this, open, over by the confessional booth.

0:42:19 > 0:42:23I think someone wanted to make it look like you killed Father Morton.

0:42:23 > 0:42:27They'd been reading a passage about coveting.

0:42:27 > 0:42:31For someone who is not a member of the congregation,

0:42:31 > 0:42:35you certainly seem to have studied your Bible.

0:42:37 > 0:42:43I have the address of a beekeeper who breeds Cyprian bees.

0:42:43 > 0:42:48The same variety of bee we found in the confessional booth.

0:42:48 > 0:42:50I was hoping you might help me.

0:42:51 > 0:42:53The Church does not want to have anything

0:42:53 > 0:42:55- to do with this investigation. - Ah.

0:42:55 > 0:42:57But...

0:42:57 > 0:43:01I need to know what happened to Father Morton as much as you do.

0:43:02 > 0:43:03Thank you.

0:43:03 > 0:43:05And Dr Blake...

0:43:06 > 0:43:08..don't let God go

0:43:08 > 0:43:10because you couldn't hear him when you needed to.

0:43:13 > 0:43:15Don't let hurt decide your faith.

0:43:24 > 0:43:26So the owner's been away for the last week?

0:43:26 > 0:43:28Yeah, yeah, we've spoken to the neighbours.

0:43:29 > 0:43:31I guess we're hoping to find anything

0:43:31 > 0:43:35that looks... well, out of the ordinary.

0:43:35 > 0:43:38- I'll point out anything that I see. - Thank you.

0:43:38 > 0:43:40BEES BUZZ?

0:43:44 > 0:43:46Cyprian bees.

0:43:46 > 0:43:47Ah.

0:43:47 > 0:43:49There's a lot of activity here but nothing unusual.

0:43:49 > 0:43:51What does that thing do?

0:43:51 > 0:43:54Smoke. Keeps the bees calm.

0:43:54 > 0:43:57But we will need to stay relatively still and quiet.

0:43:57 > 0:43:58No sudden movements.

0:44:01 > 0:44:02Goodness.

0:44:02 > 0:44:05It's fine, keep still. That's what the nets are for.

0:44:05 > 0:44:07Yes, of course.

0:44:08 > 0:44:12Now, this lid has not been replaced properly.

0:44:12 > 0:44:14It's definitely been tampered with.

0:44:35 > 0:44:38Yes, you see, this hive is dilapidating.

0:44:38 > 0:44:42That crowding is not usual in a healthy, concealed hive.

0:44:42 > 0:44:43Right.

0:44:45 > 0:44:46Charlie?

0:44:46 > 0:44:51No fingerprints but there are finger impressions.

0:44:51 > 0:44:52I'd say they were wearing gloves.

0:44:55 > 0:44:57I'll take your word for it, Doc.

0:44:57 > 0:44:58Ah.

0:45:00 > 0:45:02Cigar ash.

0:45:02 > 0:45:04Cigar ash, you say?

0:45:06 > 0:45:11It's been used by an amateur to calm the bees down.

0:45:11 > 0:45:12Yes.

0:45:16 > 0:45:17Charlie?

0:45:17 > 0:45:19I think we have our killer.

0:45:29 > 0:45:31There we are, Charlie.

0:45:31 > 0:45:36I'll tell you, Lawson was right about staying away from the church.

0:45:36 > 0:45:39I didn't realise we had an appointment, gentlemen.

0:45:39 > 0:45:40Ah, Mr Michaels.

0:45:40 > 0:45:43Don't suppose you happen to have a cigar on you?

0:45:43 > 0:45:45I have a long line of patients waiting outside.

0:45:45 > 0:45:47Surely you understand that?

0:45:47 > 0:45:50Or perhaps you're not in great demand as a doctor?

0:45:51 > 0:45:56I'm told any amateur going near an apiary,

0:45:56 > 0:45:58having done their research of course,

0:45:58 > 0:46:02will know that cigar smoke calms bees down.

0:46:02 > 0:46:05- Bees? - Yes, bees.

0:46:05 > 0:46:09The ones you took from that apiary just outside town.

0:46:09 > 0:46:11The same ones you held in a glass jar

0:46:11 > 0:46:15and smashed into the confessional booth, killing Father Morton.

0:46:15 > 0:46:18Two years ago, Dorothy Turner was referred to you with a brain injury,

0:46:18 > 0:46:19an injury she sustained

0:46:19 > 0:46:22after being severely beaten by her husband, John.

0:46:22 > 0:46:26Now, three months later, he was involved in a car accident.

0:46:26 > 0:46:27According to hospital records,

0:46:27 > 0:46:30you were the surgeon who operated on him.

0:46:30 > 0:46:33There's beeswax and resin on these gloves, Doctor.

0:46:33 > 0:46:35And imprints on the lid of the hive

0:46:35 > 0:46:39which will no doubt match your driving gloves.

0:46:44 > 0:46:48Put yourself in my shoes.

0:46:48 > 0:46:51I operated on Dorothy Turner multiple times

0:46:51 > 0:46:55to repair the damage inflicted on her by that monster.

0:46:55 > 0:46:57Yes, I understand he pushed her down the stairs.

0:46:57 > 0:47:01No, no, no. First he beat her, then he pushed her down the stairs.

0:47:01 > 0:47:02Then he stomped on her head,

0:47:02 > 0:47:05and then he butted out his cigarette on her arm.

0:47:06 > 0:47:09That was the last of a long line of injuries.

0:47:09 > 0:47:11So you let him die on the table,

0:47:11 > 0:47:13and then you confessed all to Father Morton?

0:47:13 > 0:47:16That is one hell of a secret, isn't it?

0:47:16 > 0:47:21When did you realise you were in danger of being exposed?

0:47:21 > 0:47:22I am a doctor.

0:47:24 > 0:47:26I noticed his symptoms a year ago.

0:47:26 > 0:47:30But when he started breaking the secrets of the confessional,

0:47:30 > 0:47:31I knew I had to act.

0:47:31 > 0:47:33Thou shalt not kill.

0:47:35 > 0:47:38Clearly, you didn't consider the irony.

0:47:38 > 0:47:40Morton was ageing.

0:47:40 > 0:47:43He was going to die of that brain tumour within a few months anyway.

0:47:43 > 0:47:45Oh, I see.

0:47:45 > 0:47:48So you just helped things along. Is that it?

0:47:50 > 0:47:53Mysterious ways, Doctor.

0:47:53 > 0:47:56I am simply God's servant.

0:47:56 > 0:48:00Mr David Michaels, I need you to accompany me down to the station,

0:48:00 > 0:48:02where you'll be formally charged

0:48:02 > 0:48:04with the murder of Father Cyril Morton.

0:48:11 > 0:48:13Lawson.

0:48:13 > 0:48:15I think you'd be very proud of your Senior Constable.

0:48:15 > 0:48:17Couldn't have found Michaels without him.

0:48:22 > 0:48:24Matthew.

0:48:24 > 0:48:26What's going on?

0:48:26 > 0:48:29I've been summoned to Melbourne on disciplinary charges.

0:48:29 > 0:48:33I'll be facing a Special Branch Committee set up for such matters.

0:48:33 > 0:48:37Apparently, they've been keeping an eye on me for some time.

0:48:37 > 0:48:39Boss, I haven't been...

0:48:39 > 0:48:43I said "they", not "you".

0:48:44 > 0:48:47An interim station boss will be appointed in my absence.

0:48:47 > 0:48:50Until then, Davis, you're the senior officer.

0:48:50 > 0:48:52Well done today.

0:48:52 > 0:48:54Thank you, sir.

0:48:56 > 0:48:58Yeah, hang on a minute.

0:48:58 > 0:49:00Disciplinary charges?

0:49:00 > 0:49:03Oh, it's shorthand for police politics.

0:49:07 > 0:49:09I've become inconvenient.

0:49:11 > 0:49:13Well, I'll drive you to the station.

0:49:15 > 0:49:19It's all right. I've organised an officer to take me.

0:49:19 > 0:49:20Oh, I see.

0:49:22 > 0:49:24Well, I trust you'll call from Melbourne?

0:49:24 > 0:49:25Let us know when you'll be back.

0:49:29 > 0:49:31Exceptional work, Lucien.

0:49:34 > 0:49:35You too, Matthew.

0:50:11 > 0:50:13Good morning.

0:50:13 > 0:50:14You're up early.

0:50:14 > 0:50:16Yes, I thought I might take a walk.

0:50:16 > 0:50:18You know it's still dark out there.

0:50:18 > 0:50:20Oh, best time of the day.

0:50:20 > 0:50:22No-one else around.

0:50:23 > 0:50:24Are you worried about Matthew?

0:50:27 > 0:50:29Yes. Yes, I am.

0:50:31 > 0:50:33I'll get you some breakfast.

0:50:33 > 0:50:36Oh, I might walk first, if that's all right.

0:50:36 > 0:50:39Um, you know, Evelyn was telling me

0:50:39 > 0:50:43she and Father Morton didn't always get along.

0:50:43 > 0:50:45But it didn't stop them from being great friends.

0:50:45 > 0:50:47Ah, that's true.

0:50:47 > 0:50:49You know, I was reading his final sermon.

0:50:49 > 0:50:52He was talking about the sanctity of life,

0:50:52 > 0:50:55how that translates as "live and let live".

0:50:55 > 0:50:56Mm.

0:50:56 > 0:51:00We must respect the differing opinion of one another.

0:51:00 > 0:51:02Yes.

0:51:02 > 0:51:05It's the differences that make us interesting.
