Nice word to say actually,
sphygmomanometer
Don't you think?
It's a mouthful.
It's from a Greek word meaning pulse
and a French one
meaning pressure meter.
Do you have to
wear it all the time?
It's just a checkup. I've
been doing it at home, but
You've had your dad with you.
Put through the roof.
Thought I'd get a couple of low
readings in a normal environment.
What, Marine Homicide
is a normal environment?
Might just quickly see
if a m*rder's come in.
Look, if Morgan's arranged this
holiday, perhaps you should go.
I think it's why she's
doing a work experience
and let's not forget she's
arranged it for my dad, too.
What does that tell you?
Two days, maybe you
should just do both of them?
I know.
I was looking forward to being
a support act at your conference.
Well, now at least you
won't look like the case study.
Have fun, if possible.
So the last time I went on holiday
with my dad, he took me to see King Lear.
I mean it was a bold choice,
for a man not dissimilar to
the main character, but he's
never had much self awareness.
Anyway, I was open to it,
figured he was trying to connect.
And when he said
we'd get a boat to see it,
I thought he must
be taking me to see
a weird outdoor
performance or something.
Turns out King Lear
is the name of the gas field
in the North Sea.
Wasn't even lit up.
I mean, according to
this, I should be dead.
Okay, notices for
this week's guests.
Electric quad bike trail has been suspended
because of damage to the charging post,
so, Andy, I'm putting
you on the saunas.
Saskia and Tito, deer
park as usual, please.
And catering... Oh yeah.
The new edible plates are holding
up well, but there happen to be
issues with the straws,
which are made of paper,
so can we try and
stop people eating those?
Casper!
Can you give me two minutes?
The walk in the clouds
is behind schedule,
obviously, so instead
just push the abseiling.
And
finally can we also
welcome Morgan.
- Hi, Morgan.
- She's with us this week on work experience.
And is going to be shadowing me.
Her first job be to
assassinate the builder.
Okay, that's it, everyone.
Stay kind to yourselves and the planet.
It's a thing we do, Morgan.
Come on, follow me.
I'm just saying, it takes the
same amount of time by road.
Yeah, you were saying I
should let you drive my car.
Yes, you should.
And it's perverse to avoid that, by
arranging something that'll take longer.
You said it would take the same.
How does it even land?
Pontoons.
A card game.
Did you pack some cards?
Yes I did, to play pontoon,
which is a form of Blackjack or not,
you know, a made
up thing on a plane.
Have you seen The Twilight Zone?
No, cause I wasn't born.
There is an episode,
William Shatner sees a
gremlin hanging from his plane.
Everyone thinks he's crazy
so they tried to sedate him
but he steals a g*n from a
police officer, and tries to sh**t it.
Well, I don't have a g*n.
And once the plane lands
they see the engine's been torn to pieces.
Shatner was right all along.
Yeah, hi, Jeff, is it?
- Sorry, what?
- Annika. No offense,
This is a very nice sea plane.
Oh. Thanks
You know, a family run
airline since the eighties
anymore history on this
flight and I expect...
My dad passed it on to me actually.
- Lovely flier.
- Good for him.
My dad on the other hand,
isn't as trusting so...
Reality is, mine got a autopilot fitted.
Maybe give yours a break?
Got to get yourself strapped in.
Sure, just...
- Do we get peanuts?
- Hmm?
- Never mind.
- But I do trust you
I'll be having a sleep, so you
a better look out for gremlins.
It's a big responsibility.
Okay everyone.
Prepare for takeoff.
So, what am I looking at?
Well, that's his head.
Here's a foot.
And that's its wee tummy.
Are you sure there's
only one in there?
Let's see that.
I mean, you
shouldn't listen to me.
I don't know how
to read those things.
Um, what is that you got there?
Just a public protection update.
Gary Nair's been released.
He's the guy who k*lled
that family in a house fire.
Wow, this is a fun
conversation to walk into.
To be fair, it started quite fun.
Welcome to HQ, Harper.
Thank you.
It's got some great views.
Just make yourself at home
and and if you need anyth...
Well, I was going to say my
doors always open, but I
mainly hang around the car
park, looking for the new car.
Okay.
Thank you mam. Oh.
Hear that: mam.
Where's that been?
You can have that desk.
What was that about?
Dunno.
Enjoy your house plant.
Okay, so the entire
contents of your house.
Nice.
Seriously, why are we doing this?
I hear good things
about aquaboarding.
I don't mean this trip. I mean,
why are you in Scotland generally?
Morgan called me.
Not to invite you over.
Is it so strange, that I want to
spend time with my granddaughter?
And with you.
He added as an afterthought.
We are here now, aren't we?
- Maybe you can stop the...
- Don't say whining.
Okay. Apologies. I was just checking
if an upgrade was available.
- Great
- There isn't.
Well, that's okay. We don't expect to be
favoured, because we are Morgan's family.
Sorry, have you got a
normal pen, I can't seem to
- That's just a feather
- Right.
Thanks.
Got an appointment Louise,
you'll have to keep the
whatever you call
it, closed for the holiday.
The walk in the clouds. Should
call it the walk in the rain clouds.
- This is Scotland.
- Thanks.
Casper is doing some fine
tuning on that attraction for us,
He should eat an egg.
So, keys?
Of course.
The cabin Morgan's
arranged for you, is very
nice I've sent her down
there to see you in.
As a matter of fact the
forecast for this week...
Whoa, wait, wait, sorry.
Cabin.
Singular?
Thought you'd like this.
I do. I do.
No, I was just
hoping that we'd get
one each.
Well it gives you and morfar
a chance to catch up properly.
I've caught up, okay?
Listen, and one of the things I've caught up about
is, he won't say why he left Norway.
Recycled bathroom wear.
Used to be a grain sack.
Think he wants something.
Maybe he wants to see us?
You don't have to turn
everything into an investigation.
It's beautiful, Morgan.
The whole place is.
- Thank you.
- My pleasure.
Have a lovely stay.
I at least will do my best.
Seniors' star gazing at ten.
Seniors?
Have fun.
Don't embarrass me.
Wait.
Very professional, isn't she?
You know you sound
like you're proud.
- Aren't you?
- 'Course.
I was just checking you
understood what it meant.
Okay, look,
If we're going to
play happy families,
then I need to know
what's going on.
Seriously.
Can't we relax first?
Has mum kicked you out?
Oh, of course she has.
What did you do to her?
I'm thinking of leaving her.
No, you're not.
I'm calling her.
Please don't.
I haven't decided yet.
Come here to think and to...
talk it over with you first.
You want my advice?
Well, in the short term
I want you to put those
bath robes away.
Be nice to keep the place tidy.
Yes?
I'm going for a walk.
So, my dad wants to leave my mum.
Right, so that's why he's over.
Yeah, apparently he's been
dwelling on it for months.
Seems quite level about it.
What about you?
I mean, it explains a lot
but now he wants me to
talk him around, or not.
I dunno.
I mean, this is
supposed to be your area.
I might need to start with
this cab driver, actually.
He's also presenting
as a bit lost.
Right. So, you made it too?
Hmm-hmm.
The Norwegian countryside is beautiful.
Yeah, especially because my
dad's not running around in it.
How come, you're there and he's here,
It's completely the wrong way around.
I know.
Bring me back a drinking horn.
Pretty sure my ancestors
needed one before
going into battle.
Listen, if it all gets a bit much, just
Find a calming activity.
Build a rock cairn or something.
Annika?
Yeah.
Or something.
It's work.
- Do you want me to answer?
- That would be great.
Hey Annika, it's Astrid.?
Oh, hi.
Sorry.
Er, I...
- I was after Michael?
- Yeah, um...
He ate the dinner that Beth's
made for him at home ec today.
Well, you should never eat anything
a child brings home from school.
Yeah, I know that.
Do you want me to relay anything?
Um, yes.
I'm at Blane Park.
But I found a body in the river.
Found a body, Michael.
Uhuh.
Can he make it up?
I wouldn't say immediately.
Victim's a real mess.
Sounds like quite a nasty one.
I've got Harper here and a pathologist.
I guess Michael can process
any evidence remotely.
That's not all he's processing right now.
I bet. Okay.
- Thanks, Astrid.
- No probs.
Apart from that,
How is your holiday?
Well, there's a corpse in the river, so I
think the wild swimming might be off.
Okay, alright, bye for now.
Hidie hi.
Michael not coming?
He was being a supportive
dad, and it's
- put him in hospital.
- What?
Yeah, maybe not hospital.
What have you got.
So, this is the victim
Casper McCray, local builder, 35,
no PCs.
Body found by...
- me.
- You.
He was contracted to start working
on the attraction at the resort.
I saw him when I was checking in.
He's going off to an appointment.
Could have been an excuse to leave early
but let's find out who he was meeting.
Next of kin.
His husband,
Lance Wallace, interior
designer, they live nearby,
no reports of any domestics.
The local police are
breaking the news now.
I'll follow up in the morning.
How are you finding them?
Local police.
You know, they're
glad of the help.
They would have called us anyway.
Lucky you were here.
Yeah, not everyone's
going to think that.
Okay. Early assessment, cause of death
is almost certainly a high force impact.
And his lower body
is very damaged.
Major injuries consistent with a fall.
Wasn't he working
on a tree top walk?
Yeah, but that plot's on
the other side of the resort.
I guess he could have
been dragged here or driven.
River? The river could've brought him down.
It's pretty slow moving
but we've had heavy rain,
so it's possible.
What time did you see him?
About 4:30, but I
wouldn't have been the last.
We'll canvas the staff.
And the body has a
mark on the left shoulder?
I guess I'd say
it's a friction bump
But I'll have more
when I get him back.
From his safety harness?
Check if it matches.
Okay we'll leave you with him
and, um, thanks...
- Remy.
- Remy.
You got here real quickly.
Well, Harper did.
I'm on a mini-break.
So, we need to see how far a
body could have drifted in the timescale
and we need to find the crime scene cause
- I don't think it's here.
- Okay.
The resort has CCTV in the reception and
the front gate. I'll get them sent to Blair.
Great and did you manage
to arrange a...
Yeah, I did, actually.
I took a desk, filled a vase,
got a flat, south side,
just by queens park.
A ranger mobile incident
room, I was gonna say.
Right. Yes.
- It's arriving tomorrow morning.
- Uhuh.
The resort manager didn't
seem very happy about it.
- Bad for business I guess.
- Yeah, I bet.
I'll talk to her.
And did yet, sorry,
yes, southside.
Decent area.
Got some nice...uh...
Actually I don't know. I never go out.
- Ooh!
- You're late for pontoon.
I'm a trained officer. I
could have shot you.
Ah, but you don't have a g*n.
Why aren't you in bed?
Hoping to have a akvavit with my
daughter before the day ends.
Well, this needs to stay on for
- 24 hours.
- Start it again tomorrow.
Skål.
Skål.
Remember the taste?
Caraway.
The herb that's meant to cure
unfaithful husbands.
That's not what happened.
Is that all I'm getting?
I thought you wanted
to talk about it.
Did you, though?
There are blue flashing
lights all over the resort.
I mean they...
They kind of follow
me around to be honest.
You want to make a joke about it?
Well, someone
in this family has to.
So you want to play this then?
I'll be banker.
Maybe you should have
actually been a banker.
Then at least we
could have a holiday.
Sov godt. [sleep well]
Got the place for a song.
We were going to knock through.
Can't see myself staying now.
I couldn't bear rattling
around the place on my own.
So are these all your designs?
I like to work with what's here.
I did our wedding concept too.
We got married last month.
That's really tough.
I'm sorry.
Took me three years to
talk him into it and now he's...
Can I see him?
He doesn't look
how you remember him.
Ah.
Is that his laptop?
Take it.
Take anything.
Is there anything else
you remember aout yesterday?
Did he seem worried?
We believe he had a
meeting in the afternoon.
He didn't mention anything specific.
He found the resort
job quite stressful.
Stressful, how?
Well, the owner's very demanding.
Everything has to be
made of bamboo or...
whatever.
Maybe his meeting was in Glasgow.
Why? What's there?
His business
and his business partner.
She's a nightmare.
So he was always very
happy on the drive home.
Obviously not... yesterday.
Your car's in the drive though.
Oh, he's got a work car.
An SUV. Bought it a week ago.
Right. Then I'll need
the registration for that
and the name of this
business partner.
And I'll need any
passwords you know.
It was going to be
beautiful, don't you think?
Yeah.
Lovely.
Hahaha. You know there's a cooker inside?
Come the climate apocalypse,
we're all gonna need to know this stuff.
Is it imminent?
The apocalypse or breakfast?
I'm curious about both.
Breakfast... five minutes.
Bit longer for the other
thing, but not much.
Well, we left you with a
bit of clearing up to do.
Yeah well,
that's what happens when you drill
big holes and the seabed for a living.
My company Lewes
only did the pipelines.
I was proud of what I did.
You're the one wearing their jacket.
This is just recycling.
- Let's take a selfie.
- No, never.
- No, please.
- No.
Please, morfar?
Okay.
For you. For you, darling.
Nothing says a relaxing holiday
like a mobile homicide unit.
It's not mum's fault.
Did you have to take it out?
Is a convenient
excuse not to talk to me.
Hey! Don't give up yet.
I better go see what the plan is
now there's that, you know, m*rder.
You tell them not to close
down the saunas. Hmm?
Well, as long as we've
got our priorities straight.
Not by the bunny trail please.
Well, it's here or the deer park.
- No.
- And
the victim was one of
your contractors, remember,
I just hired him
and only did that cause everything
needs to be locally sourced.
Listen, the thing about
Morgan assassinating him
was a joke.
Pretty dark under
the circumstances.
I was annoyed with him.
It was supposed to be an
eco conscious build but he used
the wrong wood and he
drove over the rewilding fields
Can we move have the
bunny, please, Morgan?
Give the kids are
fighting chance to see it.
Here.
So did you see him
after he was in reception yesterday?
No, I didn't. Did you, Morgan?
No, I was with your all day.
Cause he said he was
going to an appointment.
Yeah, probably one of his other
contracts. See, that's the thing
he didn't prioritize this at all.
Was anyone signed in to see him?
I dunno.
Yes. Dana Ashraf. Works
at the community centre.
I know the job he has
there, is dragging on too.
Ah signed in yesterday at 4:48.
Thank you, yes, we'll...
We'll follow that up.
See you meeting at nine, Morgan.
Oh. Maybe think about
an electric incident van.
Throwing out there.
I hate her.
I'm sorry this is happening.
It's fine.
Why don't you come and
have dinner in the restaurant?
I've got the night off.
And my dad, you mean.
Harper.
Victim's car's missing.
We didn't spot it, cause it's
registered to a different company.
Coorie Solutions.
Victim ran it with his
business partner Nell Dwight.
What does Coorie Solutions do?
I'll blag onto it.
Now I'm getting his
laptop to digital forensics.
Hang on.
Yeah, you might need to come over.
Hey! I said, calm down.
- I want her arrested.
- He's the one you should be arresting.
Okay, okay, we need to stop
smashing things or we'll arrest
both of you.
Good, now, sit down.
Okay then, let's try again.
- You were his business partner?
- Yes.
We find properties, buy them,
and sell them to developers.
I read, next of kin,
Lance Wallace on a news website.
I didn't know he got bloody married.
you didn't know because we didn't
want you gate crashing the wedding
Because you knew I'd sniff out that
a gold digger had already got to him.
Okay, I want her
off my property.
Yes, and it is your
property now, isn't it.
As well as half our
assets, now he's dead.
And that's the important
thing here, is it?
- It is if you k*lled him.
- Okay, okay, I think we need to take
- their statements separately
- Good.
Because the only person
who's gained anything by this,
is a bargain basement Andy Warhol.
- Right!
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
How's the mobile unit holding up?
Just waiting for them to log on.
So when are you going to
take your maternity leave?
Soon as my waters break.
What's that kid doing?
Probably thinks the
mobile unit's her ride.
Wouldn't be the first
time it's happened.
Mind if I sit in?
Hi Diane.
Hi.
Is this going to happen
every time you go on holiday?
Yeah, maybe we should give every
m*rder*r a heads up on my schedule.
So the business partner now is
outright accusing the
victim's husband of k*lling him.
She's convinced he
was just after the money.
The company they had
together, Coorie Solutions,
was a partnership which
basically dissolved when he died.
They didn't make a formal agreement
which would have protected it.
As a result, half the assets
revert to the victim's husband.
And how's his alibi holding up?
Well, he said he was in all
day, but he didn't see anyone.
It's the business partners who's in the
clear. She was in the spa in Glasgow.
Got about a dozen witnesses.
I dunno how lucrative the
company will be for the husband.
It's being sued for fraud
and it's not the first time.
Hey Michael.
- Did you hear all that?
- Yeah.
Ping me the address
and I'll do some digging,
Well, only if you, you
know, stop throwing up.
Nearly. Astrid thinks we should
take a family holiday to Blane, but...
Yeah, yeah, but maybe Beth could get
some work experience in the kitchen.
Hmm, very funny.
As for the body
SOCO have confirmed he
wasn't k*lled where he was found.
And there's not a sign of a
struggle at the treetop walk.
The river was flowing faster than usual so
we're scouring upstream a couple of miles.
Did they find his phone?
No, nor his SUV.
Resort footage shows
it leaving at 5:30 PM.
Can't see the driver though.
Digital forensics are doing a
quiet extraction to get the GPS data.
Just waiting for it.
Yeah.
Is my phone linked to the screen?
Yeah. Should be.
Okay, we've got this.
Er, no.
Right, just bear with me.
Hold on.
Yeah, that's my boat.
An octopus.
There we go.
Dana Ashraf.
Works for the Pelican
Community Centre now
she signed in for a
meeting with the victim.
And she's a client
and she's a pretty unhappy one.
Signed in at 4:48 and didn't
sign out, so the timescale works
Yeah.
- You bouncing?
- Yeah.
I'm on a ball.
Got the SUV's tracking
coming through now.
So after it left, it drove to
somewhere called Bonnars Ridge.
Sounds pretty high.
Yeah and the river
runs right under it.
It's still there.
Signal hasn't moved
since last night.
Okay then.
We're going to take a look.
What did your daughter cook?
Fish cakes.
Ooh.
Wow.
Just the word...
- Really?
- Quickest way.
I mean I've never...
- Hold tight and lean into the turns.
???
???
- Are you swearing in Norwegian?
- Yes.
???
Ahhhh!
Is it over?
Yeah.
Good, good, good, good, good.
Pretty remote.
But...
I guess the GPS
might be a bit vague.
Yeah.
Okay I don't want to go
overboard on the
police jargon, but
you look over there.
- Hmm-hmm.
- I'll look over here.
So, you buy properties
From willing sellers.
Plenty of other firms out
there do the same.
Well, they're not all that willing.
Some of them sued you.
Now your partner's been k*lled.
By his husband.
You should be looking into that.
Oh, we did.
A neighbor came round
to complain about his music,
twice.
He didn't answer but she
saw him through the window.
He was there all evening.
So, what exactly what was your
partner's role in this business?
It's not a business anymore.
I'm guessing that he
visited properties,
tapped the walls, used his
building credentials to put pressure
on and you got it for a knockdown price.
He gave a fair assessment. Some
of those places were falling apart.
Sounds to me like they
thought they'd been ripped off.
Well, that's a matter of opinion.
All the civil cases failed.
Oh, sure it didn't stop them
feeling it was all a bit dishonest.
Oh, and who isn't from time to time.
You think lawyers aren't?
Police?
Okay I'm going to need a
list of everyone you sold to.
Plus those people who sued you.
And
I'm going to need to
know where the toilets are.
Hmm.
It was hard for King Lear
to admit that he'd made
a terrible mistake.
Giving away the
keys to his kingdom.
And he ends up
on a barren heath.
Raging
at the storm about it.
The fool who's tagged along with him,
tries to point out that such
misery was always going to happen
cause
the world always lets you down.
It's a tricky sell
to a king.
So.
He wraps it up in
a metaphor about
rain, or something.
Found it!
I guess a less subtle fool
might've been tempted to just
push him over the cliff.
The friction mark was
on his left shoulder.
Hmm. So he was the passenger.
Does the state his body match
being in a car that's gone over the edge?
If he went through
the windscreen, maybe.
So.
I found this.
Is that a vulture?
No, that's a pelican.
Wanna pay a visit to the community centre?
- Yep.
- I'm not just
angling for another ride.
Yeah, of course you're not.
Woohoo!
Dana Ashraf?
Let's leave it there for the CPR.
Take five. We'll do
hemorrhaging, after.
Do you want to put those away?
This is supposed to be a
place where young people don't
feel like they're in trouble.
What about their
community leader?
What do you want?
We're investigating the
m*rder of Casper McCray.
Well I didn't realize he...
What? When?
Yesterday evening.
That's terrible.
But it's nothing to do with me.
But you hired him to fix
this place up though, right?
Sure, we fundraised.
We paid him a deposit but he kept
putting it off, so we cancelled the job.
And that was that?
It was annoying, but it happens.
So why did you
sign into Blane Park
on the day he died?
He was withholding the
deposit we needed it back so,
yes, I went to see him.
And did you do
anything else with him?
I just came on spec.
I tried talking to him.
He walked off, said he
had an appointment.
Hmm.
It's just we found
a keyring to this place.
Right next to where his car
went over the edge.
Help us out with
that, will you, Dana.
Patrick, Emily, I uh, put
some snacks in the kitchen.
Do you want to take the others through?
He bought that damn car with the money.
Our money.
And then I find out yesterday
he's bought this place too.
Went to the council, took
it off their hands for a steal.
We'll be out in two
months. It will be
flats and ticks.
- Hmm.
- So you saw red,
knocked him out,
drove him out to Bunnars Ridge.
Just the car, okay?
He'd left the keys in the wheel
arch. He was long gone when I took it.
The friend's ex'll
tell us if that's true.
Good, cause they will.
Look, I just wanted him to know what
it was like to lose something, that's all.
It's a bit extreme, isn't it?
Well it's a bit extreme to steal
our community hall from us.
So if his meeting wasn't
with you, who was it with?
- Can eat the plate as well.
- Hmm.
Yeah, I'm not sure I can
eat what's on the plate.
Let me call morfar again.
Maybe the aquaboarding
took care of him.
I know what you're
doing with all this
and it's very sweet.
But we're not going to fix
a lifetime of our stuff with...
mollusks.
Have a bit of faith, will you?
Excellent. We didn't
have these yesterday.
Not the biggest of our
problems of course.
No, that'd be me,
Louise, I'm guessing.
Are you anywhere nearer to solving it?
The reporters are asking my guests what
it's like to have a holiday in a crime scene.
Mmm mm.
He's not answering.
Or he's he's having one
or two personal issues.
Like what?
You've got enough to deal with.
A might just get a search going.
Good to know where he is.
- Given there's...
- a m*rder*r at the resort.
Mum!
Detective?
It's your father.
Aha.
Yeah.
Things've already been fed, dad.
Have you been talking to mum?
Yeah.
It's more difficult
than I thought.
Okay, okay.
Just maybe leave the deer out of it.
Vomiting in a
deer park is a first.
Get a cleaning team in Morgan.
There is a stag drawing
group coming in first thing.
- I'll clean it.
- No, no.
- I'm so sorry.
- No, it's not your fault.
- No, it should be me.
- Come.
I'll show you were
the cleaning stuff is.
I mean we don't use chemical
cleaners which is something
I'm starting to regret.
So, what happened on the call,
that you have to drink so much?
Oh you know, there's a lot of
history to get through.
- Oh!
- Sorry, is this...
a bad time?
No, no, no, it's fine, you know, just carry on.
Oh, okay, um,
forensics have got back
to us about the SUV, right?
There's no evidence anyone was in
it when it went over the ridge. So
the community worker must
have been telling the truth.
Right, so, the, um, the victim,
he never left the resort.
Yeah, forensics found
this in the glove box.
with 5:30 PM, written on the back.
His appointment could have
been another property viewing.
Right, let's find that and
we'll meet in the morning.
- Okay.
- I'll go get this one home.
You want me to lift him back
to Glasgow on the bike?
- Yes.
- No.
Lucky you didn't eat the oysters.
Turns out they were a day old.
Maybe Michael should
have a holiday here.
Feel at home.
Louise is getting a new oyster guy.
But the missed delivery was because
the sea plane didn't pick them up.
Should have sacked the pilot.
Taxi's arriving.
Excellent holidays.
Very relaxing.
Wow, it's like nothing happened.
See you later.
So, are you going to
tell me what last night...
I feel humiliated.
Please let me deal
with this on my own.
Don't even ask. It's
not an ice cream van.
As a result of some
bad legacy choices,
there are ten
deaths in King Lear.
There's a
poisoning,
a cardiac arrest,
a suicide, a dual,
a hanging,
there's four slayings
and a broken heart.
And that last one
is Lear himself.
And for that to happen he had to
have a heart in the first place.
But he also had a child,
who saw the hurt.
And Cordelia was ready to do.
anything
to help her father.
Even if the damage
had already been done.
Pilot,
Geoff McInver.
His seaplane missed an oyster run
at the time of the m*rder
'cause he was
out on another run.
So from staff canvassing
the victim was last
seen heading to the
far south of the resort.
Which is where the
seaplane dock is.
And the house photo?
It's a Dunleavy house.
It's the house the victim
was due to visit at 5:30 PM
It's the next loch up.
If he was off to view it, then
it's too far for him to get there
from 5:30,
He'd have had to go by air.
The plane would give
us the fall from height.
And the seat seatbelt
burn on the victim.
I kept mine pretty tight.
So did you get a list of all past
properties bought by the victim's company?
Yup.
There's a Rod McInver.
Same family name as the pilot.
He sold his place six months
ago for half the market value.
There's an online obituary.
He died recently. Thank you.
RAF veteran.
Pilot's dad.
Flying's in the family.
His house is the one the
victim lived in with his husband.
Remember these?
Wow. Insult to injury.
How do you push someone out
of a plane when you're flying it?
He's got an autopilot.
Where is it now.
It's coming back.
He's taking off again.
Any ideas?
Ever play chicken?
Sure, but not, you know, with a plane.
Oh, boy.
Whoa!
Jeez, guys.
Okay.
Yeah.
That builder cheated my father
out of his home and his money.
Dad started putting on
his old uniform again.
It hung off him though
'cause he got so thin but
he did it cause he wanted
to walk past his old house,
Trying to shame that
builder for what he'd done.
He was trying to get some pride back.
Just thought he was some old man
wandering around.
He's run up the front drive.
Just shouting at him to keep off the
property. I had to help him home.
He never went out again.
It k*lled him.
That builder k*lled him.
That needed paying for.
So you offered to show the
builder a property from the air.
Yes.
Because he'd forgotten me too.
He wouldn't have boarded the seaplane
if he had any sense of what he'd done.
Or even recognize my name.
Okay, come on.
So, that was his
chance to save himself.
and he didn't take it.
You'd have done the same.
Felt the same.
Not done the same.
Turns out there really was
a gremlin on the plane.
I mean, I'm not condoning it, but he
should have thrown him out over the ocean.
Yeah I think that was the
plan, but the victim caught on.
And what about the other tragedy?
Yeah, I'm downgrading it to a
plain old family drama.
Safe trip back.
- Thanks for coming to get me.
- It's my job.
Hey, I'm just popping out.
Kids are upstairs.
How are you feeling?
Think it's working its way out.
That's what happens when
your firstborn tries to k*ll ya.
She's not my first.
What are you talking about?
Oh, what because you're on the police or
because of your personality?
No I mean, she's not
my firstborn.
Morgan is.
How long have you known?
Not long.
- So not for sixteen years?
- No.
Morgan doesn't even know yet.
Okay.
I'm sorry this is a new
thing for us, I...
I didn't know how to tell you.
So, what's going to change?
I hear you did very well.
Watch your pride there, dad.
I have always been proud.
Always.
And I'm sorry I
didn't say that earlier.
This is the other
reason that I came over.
Better?
Probably all the cairn building I did.
Hah!
I'll make it up to Morgan.
I'll get her something
and you too.
Can I have this car?
Oh, my.
