Mr and Mrs Murder (2013) s01e06 Episode Script

Perfect.
I've been checking it but it keeps changing - 25? Attenzione! Attenzione.
Now is the time to propose a toast to the couple on the eve of what will be the most wonderful wedding day.
Wait, Daddy - Adam's not here.
Peter? The victim is Adam McEwen, the best man.
Poisoned - they're waiting on a toxicology report but it looks like drain cleaner was put into capsules that he was taking for his thyroid condition.
Um, there were fingerprints at the break-in site and a suspect - um, uh, Adam was being stalked by an ex-girlfriend.
So, have you got her? They're still looking.
She used to work for Adam and Franco.
Her friends say that she's away on holiday.
They're getting a search warrant for her house.
I have my doubts but it's not my case, so So, whose wedding was this? Sofia Scaletta's.
That's her house.
Marrying a bloke by the name of Dean Rossi.
Vinetti! I thought I told you to get home! I'm not on the property, Deb.
I just thought I'd Having a picnic in the driveway with your friends? - Oh, well, it's a lovely day for it.
- Lamington? Get out of here before you taint the crime scene any more than you have.
I mean it.
I can help, Deb.
Yeah, you'll help them by being their friend, not their investigating officer.
You know how this works.
Oh THAT Scaletta! Oh, God, Peter, I'm so sorry.
Which Scaletta? His ex-wife's family.
Oh.
What do you think I'm gonna do? Tamper with the evidence? You know, I want to find out who did this as much as anyone.
Well, Peter, emotions can often cut against logic.
They can impair rational Oh, shut up, Charlie! You know, Gianna might have divorced me but those people up there are my family.
Well, how can we help? II need you guys to do what you do.
Look out for anything.
I'm gonna camp out behind the property.
There's an old lane.
Give me updates, give me anything.
Sure.
Absolutely.
We can do that.
OK? It'll be OK, Peter.
OK.
Mmm.
Mmm-mmm Well, we should probably we should probably go.
Yeah, we should go.
There'll be plenty of places to study here, Jess.
Are you kidding? I want to meet Peter's ex-wife.
Huh.
Wow.
So, Peter married money.
All this time, I had him pegged as an idiot.
Well, it's very judgemental of you to think he can't be capable of both.
Um, sweetie, can you grab the cumulo-extractor and the hydroxyl generator? Yeah, yeah.
And the wet-vac hoses.
Probably need about eight of them.
Sure.
OK.
Yeah.
Yep.
Yep? Hi.
We're just about to do the primary assessment of the crime scene.
Oh, it's just that we understand that the victim was going to be the best man at a wedding.
And somebody put poison in his medication.
You're the cleaners, right? Yeah.
Yeah.
So you go in and you clean.
Pretty simple.
You don't need a brief from me.
Knowing how the blood got there doesn't help you mop it up, does it? Well, no, but If you want to talk price, the family are inside.
Yes? I never thought I'd say this but I actually miss Peter.
Yeah.
Everything will be alright.
I promise you.
Hello.
I'm so sorry to interrupt.
We're the cleaners.
My name's Nicola and this is my husband, Charlie.
Yes.
Hello.
How are you? Oh, I'm I'm Ana.
This is my husband, Franco.
Thank you for coming.
So, you're going to put everything back to how it was? Absolutely.
Please don't worry about anything.
Yes.
And we're so sorry about the wedding.
Uh, it was my little sister, Sofia's.
Oh.
We're very sorry.
Yes.
You're here.
Good.
Um, i-it's it's fairly extensive.
Uh, we need the blood cleaned from the hall, the stairs, the rug and, uh, out by the pool.
Oh, and Adam's room is a shambles.
So, you're Gianna? Yes.
I'm assuming you have everything that you need.
Hmm? Oh, yeah, yeah.
Yes.
Yeah, of course.
We do, yes, as you can see.
Well, Dean will help you with it.
Dean? Then you should see to Sofia, huh? Yes.
Of course.
Um, please follow me.
Sure.
Yes.
Thank you.
She looks exactly like Aunty Nic! So, how long is all this going to take? It's just Sofia's pretty shaken up.
I mean, we all are.
I guess quite a few areas are affected - I'd say we'll be here for at least the rest of the day.
I'm so sorry, 'cause I realise this is your wedding day.
Yeah, it was.
And, look, you know, it's still gonna happen.
It's just Adam won't be here to see it.
That's all.
He was my best friend, you know? Since high school.
Then he went to work for Franco.
Actually, he was the one that introduced me to Sofia.
This is the room that Adam stayed in, was it? Yes.
This is the room he always had when he was here.
Right.
She would have known that.
- This is Adam's ex-girlfriend? - Yeah.
Nut case.
These fingerprints are tiny.
She also worked for Franco's business? Yeah.
Yeah, she left, Adam stayed.
And he made it all the way to second-in-charge well, actually, first-in-charge.
A couple of nights ago, Franco told us, um, he was retiring, handing everything over to Adam.
That would have been the making of him.
So he and Franco must have been close.
Yeah.
Um, yeah.
Look, I'm gonna go and see how Sofia is.
I'll leave you to it.
OK.
Thank you.
Family business? So I wonder how Gianna felt about it going to Adam.
Ooh.
Peter will be thrilled to know you think his ex-wife did it.
I don't know - it just seems a bit strange, don't you think? You know, breaking in, poisoning someone's medication, taking off out the window and then what? Just waiting to see if it works? And why do all that planning and then break in and not wear a pair of gloves? Mmm.
What medication did you say it was? Um Peter said something about thyroid, didn't he? My guess is it's probably levothyroxine.
Iodine's absorbed from the bloodstream and anyway, long story short So it's not diabetes? Hmm? Oh.
May I? "Living with Diabetes.
" I suppose this wasn't his actual room, though, was it? I mean, he was just visiting.
Still Yeah.
Something's just not quite right here.
I can feel it in my waters.
And another thing - why wait until Adam was here for the weekend? Both he and the ex-girlfriend live in Melbourne.
Why would you follow him here to kill him? Because she'd followed him here before.
Very thorough cleaners, aren't you? Haven't missed a thing.
Well, we wouldn't be doing our job otherwise.
He was single.
He lived alone.
Uh, you and I might finish him off in the privacy of his own home but, then, you and I aren't psychotic.
Well, I'm not.
Someone who would feed caustic soda to a person they claim to love isn't thinking like a rational human being.
They don't care if they get caught.
Hence all the fingerprints.
Ooh - missed a spot.
Imagine having to deal with her every week.
Yeah, Peter's much less weird.
Mind you, that's still pretty weird.
Isn't it? Let's face it.
He goes out with you a few times Twice.
Then marries a woman who looks exactly Gianna.
Yeah! Exactly like Gianna.
Shhh That's right.
It's like Kim Novak in 'Vertigo'.
"Except you're you're two different women.
"Now, wait a minute here - I'm" When you're done there I need you to look at the dining room.
Yeah.
Yeah, sure.
Absolutely.
Do you think she heard? Hey.
Hi.
Hey, I need you to scoot over and see Peter, see if the toxicology report's in.
I can't get onto him on the phone.
Also need the file on Adam's ex-girlfriend.
Do I ask about the diabetes? If you want to, sweetie.
Absolutely.
Hello.
Hello.
G'day.
Hi.
Keys! Keys.
Sorry - what? Keys.
I've gotta go see Oh, no, no.
No-one can know that he's there so you'll have to go on foot.
Um, cut through the garden.
Go through those trees over there.
Nature gives me hives.
Sweetie, it's sleuth club.
Hum the investigating theme as you go, hey? Yeah? Alright.
Come on, sweetie - it makes it fun! Yeah! Of course, the most extensive collection of Aubusson tapestries - many of which date from the 16th century - is owned by MC Hammer.
Oh, really? Yeah, yeah.
He loves them.
Oh.
Can't get enough of them.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I thought you were done.
I'll I'll just Uh oh, uh, well, we very nearly are.
Nic and I just have to run the cumulo-extractor over the underlay of the carpet.
That's a microbial flensing unit.
I'm guessing you're Sofia.
Oh, um, this wedding program.
Oh.
It's really beautiful.
Thanks.
Anyway, I'll let you finish.
Oh, just just one more thing, Sofia.
Nic and I were cleaning the parquetry upstairs near the bannisters and we noticed the corking smelt faintly of budgie.
Oh, um, smoke, sweetie.
Uh, smoke.
Yeah, smoke.
Smells like budgie to me.
Um, have you had a fire here? Um, no, no - that was the Black Saturday bushfires.
Ah.
This whole area went up.
We were very lucky - just a bit of smoke.
Right.
A lot of animals would have lost their habitat.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We became a bit of a wildlife refuge, actually.
Did any of the animals hang around? Koalas, perhaps? How could you possibly know that? Yeah, that's Cathy.
Aww, isn't she sweet? Lovely.
Does Cathy ever come inside the house? Uh, yeah.
She wanders in now and again.
Yeah, I guess 'cause she spent so much time with us as a baby.
Woo-woo-woo-woo-woo! If you'll excuse me Yeah, yeah.
Sure, sure.
Sure thing.
Woo, woo, woo-woo-woo-woo! I think you're right, darling.
I think whoever killed Adam didn't break in through the window.
Didn't break in at all.
In fact, I'm willing to bet the murderer is someone still in the house.
She's the one that got away.
I loved her laugh.
She could light up a room with that laugh.
She danced like an angel - I mean, phew! A lot of passion.
And very very hot Italian blood.
A lot of yelling.
That doesn't mean they don't love you - I mean, that actually means they DO love you.
Yeah.
Or they're very, very angry at you.
Alright.
Whoever did it didn't break in - the fingerprints belonged to a koala.
What?! Mmm.
Apparently koala fingerprints are indistinguishable from human fingerprints.
You know, they've got loops and whorls and everything.
Let me guess - Charlie.
Where is he? Well, you know, he's getting changed at the moment.
The koala went to the toilet on his onesie.
Now, I need that file on the ex-girlfriend.
It's not adding up.
Yeah, I called in a few favours.
The file's on its way.
Did did you notice anything else? Yeah.
Apart from Gianna looking remarkably Upset.
Yeah, um, upset.
Really upset.
Yeah, um, upset.
Really upset.
Actually, everyone's, you know, really, really upset but Peter, the bad news is that we've nearly finished the clean.
We have no reason to stay.
No, Nic, you can't leave.
N-no, n-not before I work this out.
You should have seen the look on Gianna's face when I arrived.
I know she thinks I can't do this but I can.
I will, with your help.
Poor Peter.
Oh, he'll find someone.
Mmm.
There's bound to be someone else out there who looks exactly like you.
Really? No! Gianna doesn't look EXACTLY like me.
She looks exactly like you.
We're on, OK? OK.
Darling, any luck fixing the engine? Um, well, the flywheel's broken and I think we've thrown a rod.
Oh.
Yeah.
Um, terrible.
Here - put these in your purse.
Mmm.
Um, so, um, how long do you think it'll take to fix? Well, I gave them a ring and they said two or three days, probably, to get the flywheel down from Sydney, so, um, yeah - we're stuck.
Brody, can you come and have a look at this? Hi.
Did you turn it over? Uh, yeah.
Turned her over.
She gave me nothing.
Let's have a look.
Yeah, sure.
Um, well, you two should come and wait inside until it's fixed.
Oh, thank you, Gianna.
Thank you.
OK.
I should warn you, though, it's a very complicated engine - half Wankel rotary, half Wooler swashplate - my own design.
Um, had Adam worked for your father for long? Oh, yeah - years.
Yeah, he started in the warehouse.
Mum, what are you doing? We don't have to have lunch right now.
What are you saying? You want to get sick? We're still alive.
Anyway, your father's hungry.
And all this food - I'm not throwing it out.
Now, um, Sofia, would you peel those? Oh, Nicola - you cook, darling? Oh, a little.
Oh! Come on, then.
Ah.
They can't win a war but they certainly know how to build a car, don't they? Ah! May I? You mind? Yeah, sure.
Oh, wow.
Lancia famiglia.
Bella donna.
Molta bella donna.
Franco's passion.
Really? Mmm.
And these? These ones? On loan.
Really? Interesting.
Fantastico.
Look, mate, if you, uh, want to take a wander or something No, I'm enjoying myself here, really.
Yeah, it's just that I work better on my own.
Oh.
Oh, OK.
Yeah, yeah.
Sure.
That's, uh, coming along pretty well.
Oh, thanks.
Yours is looking good too.
Um, just a little tip is if you try and keep it kind of small and not so much flour I saw that you were making little ones.
They look great.
Just feeling a little bit hungry.
Oh.
Ah! Please come sit down.
Really? Oh, thank you.
Thank you, Franco.
Ah, grappa! Uh, beautiful but, uh, not for me, thank you.
Brody not fixed your car yet? Uh, it's being difficult.
If he can't fix it, we'll call a mechanic tomorrow.
You can stay here tonight.
We have plenty of room.
Really? That's very generous of you.
Thank you.
We won't even notice you're here.
Did you ever meet, um, the girl that was stalking Adam? Uh Sorry.
One second.
What's wrong? Oh, I don't know, Mum.
I think I've got some flour in my contact.
I'll just yeah, go to the toilet.
I think you should leave those.
Do you play? Well, I don't like to boast but I did once beat Garry Kasparov in a game we were playing by correspondence.
Nicola says it shouldn't count because Putin had thrown him in jail and a couple of the letters might have got lost.
But yes.
Yes, I play.
Oh! Mmm! Oh, my goodness.
Oh.
Taste.
Mmm.
Mmm! What? What? Oh! Oh, my! Oh! Oh! Is this salt? Yeah.
It's salt.
Oh, look, I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry.
I thought it was sugar.
Oh, no.
Oh, well.
Could you throw it out for me? Oh, yeah.
And we'll start all over again, the two of us.
I, uh I suppose I'd better go and give the men the bad news - lunch will be delayed.
Aah! Yeah, I say we order takeaway.
I saw photos of your car collection.
You like them? Very nice.
Very beautiful.
You're a braver man than I am, loaning them out like that.
What car show are they visiting? Uh some place in Adelaide.
For a month or so.
A month! Really? Shipped there, I suppose.
Yeah.
Truck or rail? How'd they get there? I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't organise anything.
Uh excuse me.
I'm sorry.
Please - I've had a very, very, very upsetting day.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm sorry.
Uh Franco? Uh, lunch will be a little bit late, I'm afraid.
Yes, well, I'm afraid I've upset your husband.
He doesn't like to lose, that's all.
Well, we could get the cumulo-extractor onto it.
Yeah.
You know, Gianna's not happy that we're here.
Sofia seems nice, though.
Yeah, she does.
Did you see that call that she got? Yeah.
She rejected it.
She didn't just reject it.
You get a call you don't want, you reject it.
She got a call and she switched her phone off.
Thingy tell you anything about Franco's business? Is he in financial trouble? Financial trouble? Have you seen this place? Why? Yep.
That's motor oil.
I need more, darling.
Ooh, it's oaky.
It's Pizzoni.
Franco said he loaned his cars to a motor show a month ago.
Well, that can't be right.
These are covered in old spider webs, this one's clean.
I mean, these cars have been moved at different times.
It's the same with oil - that's dusted over, that's clean.
Do you think he's been selling his cars? Well, there was certainly some tension between him and Adam.
What's going on? Oh! Dean! Hello.
Hi.
Motor oil.
It's, um, a specialty of ours.
Cleaning Yes.
Um, how much do you reckon, darling, to get rid of this? Franco doesn't, um doesn't need that cleaned.
Lunch is ready.
I just need to talk to Mr Scaletta again.
No-one is under arrest.
He's simply going to help us with our inquiries.
Look, look - it was that crazy stalker chick that killed him.
Why do you keep having to talk to my dad? - Can you just leave us alone, please? - That's enough.
Officer, perhaps you should come to my office - we can be more private.
Uh Just Hi.
Hi.
So, um, why are you questioning Franco again? Um, because it's my job to ask questions, as opposed to your job, which DOESN'T involve asking questions.
No, w-we think we've found something out.
Um, he's been selling his assets.
So, you know, we think he might be in financial trouble.
In a murder, first thing I do if someone's killed in a house like this is look into everyone's financial assets.
I am running this investigation - not you and not Peter Vinetti.
Understand? How long does it take to vacuum a carpet anyway? Officer? Yes, Mrs Scaletta? I killed Adam.
What did Adam do to you, Mum? It's because of what he did to your father.
The business has been going downhill for some time.
Oh, no.
What do you mean? Because of Adam? You shut me out, Franco.
I couldn't understand that and then I heard you arguing with Adam and things started to make sense.
Mum.
I made Adam tell me what was going on.
He was quite happy to tell me my husband is a dinosaur who's sending us all bankrupt.
We are not bankrupt.
It has been difficult, yes, but Adam was tearing the business apart.
Then why did you name him as your successor? To protect you.
I didn't want to hand you a business that was in trouble.
It was to take over until it improved.
Ride through the storm.
OK.
Mrs Scaletta? We're going to have to get going.
No.
No.
Ana couldn't have killed Adam.
Mama, no.
There's no way.
Well, I'll be sure to put that in my report.
Ana, how did you poison Adam? Do you want me to arrest you too? Hey, Snowy.
Have you got any control over your wife? We have a non-traditional approach to our gender roles.
Thank you, darling.
Ana? Please.
I put the poison in his medicine.
His tablets.
Tablets? His capsules.
Could you show us how you did that, please, Ana? Right.
Bicarbonate of soda should offer the best comparative consistency.
Great.
And, Ana, if you could just fill the capsules as you did yesterday.
Please.
Ooh! Ugh! That's enough.
More than.
I'm so sorry to put you through that, Ana.
But you're not going to help your husband by confessing to something that you didn't do.
Ana? Why? Your wife thought that she needed to cover for you, Mr Scaletta, but she couldn't have done it because of her eyesight.
Mum? What's wrong with your eyes? Nothing.
It's just a little problem, that's all.
It's diabetes.
Why didn't you tell me? I could ask you the same question.
You thought I killed Adam? Me? I didn't know what to think because I'd never seen you as angry as you were last night.
I may have wanted to kill him, yes, but it doesn't follow that I did.
Did Adam blackmail you, Dad? Of course not.
We argued because he said if I didn't keep the business afloat as it was, he would call in the administrators.
So you just gave him the business? That sounds like blackmail to me.
Well, it's been a wonderful show.
I look forward to the final act.
Have you got the stalker file? Yep.
That's everything on Adam's crazy lady.
Great.
Deb hasn't found her yet.
Um Peter, what's Gianna's role in the business? What? Oh, no.
No.
I just I'm not.
All I'm doing is asking.
I have to ask.
No, no.
First Franco and then Ana and now Gianna? Well, it's I asked I asked you guys to look out for my family, not have them rounded up and put in prison.
Well, did you know that Franco was planning on giving the family business to Adam? Well, Franco was What? Yeah.
A couple of days ago, he gave a retirement speech and apparently he said that he was going to hand the family business over to Adam.
Oh, Gianna wouldn't have been expecting that.
She's slaved in this business since high school.
I hate asking this, Peter, but you know, when Gianna found out would she have been angry enough to kill him? So Franco gave the business to Adam because it was sinking, in order to protect Gianna, but Gianna didn't know that when Adam was murdered, did she? No.
All she knew was that her father was giving the family business away.
See, that would maybe put my fist through a wall, but that wouldn't make me kill someone.
What about those letters, Charlie? I don't think they fit the stalker theory.
Well, there's no escalation.
She gets angry, she throws a brick through the window, there's some letters and then, after a couple of months, nothing.
Stopping then starting again makes no sense.
"I love you and I know you love me, "but you've destroyed my life.
" See, there's no specific threat there.
Why start up again for no reason? What do you make of this photo, darling? It's January.
Oh, that looks fantastic on you.
Oh, thanks, darling.
Oh, it's so young to die, isn't it? Hmm, and a waste of a tall, handsome guy.
Do you think that photo was taken here? Well, Deb did say the ex had been here before.
So what? She came here, hid, took photos of her obsession.
Psycho.
I wonder where it was taken exactly.
Well, we have an hour for dinner.
What say we take an aperitif in the garden? Sounds great.
Not you, sweetie.
You're too little.
Is that the birdbath there? No, that one's smaller and it's on that.
There's so many birdbaths.
Deep, though.
Oh, that's it.
That's it.
That's the birdbath.
Oh, OK.
Is that It's the wrong angle, though, isn't it? Because that Darling? Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Perfect place to lie in wait.
Prey would be none the wiser.
A perfect vantage point.
Oh, yeah.
No-one would see you.
Oh, it's the perfect hidey-hole.
Mm-hm.
Oh, that that was Gianna's play den.
Oh, she loved that as a little girl.
Very protective of it, though.
The other girls had to ask permission before she'd let them in.
It doesn't look overgrown at all.
It looks quite well cared for.
Oh, good.
The gardeners are looking after it for her.
Gianna? Why would Gianna pretend to be Adam's stalker? Maybe she wanted to make it seem as though he was still being harassed by the ex.
But she didn't have a motive until Franco said he was giving the family business to Adam.
Well, she doesn't have one we know of.
And of course the other fascinating thing about Napoleon is that he died, ultimately, of lead poisoning caused by his wallpaper.
So true story.
Absolutely.
So where should I? Um, if you could just sit that side of Charlie, that would be great, thank you.
Darling.
Darling.
Hello.
Hi.
Everybody has wine.
You have wine, Nicola? Oh, yes, I do.
Thank you, Ana.
Yes.
Cheers.
Salute.
Oh, that's lovely.
That is very nice.
Vernaccia di San Gimignano.
The first DOC wine in Italy.
Oh.
Yeah, the Scalettas were the first Australian importers.
Ah! Denominazione di origina controllata.
Molto bene.
Grazie.
I got that from the Sagra della luganega this year.
Really? Dedicated to the luganega sausage.
Oh, you know it? Yeah.
So what are your wedding plans now, Sofia? Uh, well, we're not really sure when the wedding will be yet.
But, um, you know, sometime soon.
We shouldn't let Adam's death stop us from living.
He wouldn't have wanted that.
No and you wouldn't want that.
Uh, well, we'll all be very relieved when they find Adam's killer.
Excuse me.
I'm not feeling that well.
I think I'll just go upstairs.
Oh, now, let's eat.
Just just make yourselves at home.
No, I'm completely stuffed.
OK, goodbye.
OK, bye-bye.
Thanks.
Well, we can scratch Gianna as our stealthy photographer.
The sausage thing? Takes place on the 7th and 8th of January each year in Cannobio.
It's a tradition as old and inscrutable as the city itself.
And interesting fact - in 1933 You've lost me.
Oh, well, the file on the ex said that the photo of Adam in the garden was taken on 7 January.
So it couldn't have been Gianna.
No.
Oh, Peter will be pleased, though.
Still, it needs to have been taken by somebody who knew about the hidey-hole.
You two go ahead.
I'll just be a moment.
Forgot my watch.
She's wearing her watch.
Not by the time she gets to wherever she's going.
I'm so sorry to interrupt.
I left my watch, I think, when we were cleaning earlier and it's I'll just find it.
Oh, God.
It is a bother, isn't it? No.
I'll come back tomorrow.
That's fine.
No, no.
You you just look so much like Gianna.
Oh.
Yeah.
No bother.
I was just thinking about Adam.
So you guys were close? We became close.
After that whole stalking thing happened.
I don't think he felt like he could talk to any of his friends.
People didn't understand Adam.
So in a way, you two - you bonded over the stalking thing.
I was there when he needed me.
Elena, did you take this? Of course not.
Elena, I think you posed as Adam's stalker so that you guys could stay close.
He was my best friend.
He never even look twice at me until that stalker.
We started spending time together.
He'd invite me places.
I It was a relationship.
Until I saw him kiss Sofia.
He kissed Sofia? I saw him kiss her in the garden.
The night he arrived for the wedding? Oh, Elena.
You didn't.
Oh, no! I didn't do anything, but I thought maybe Dean Elena you have to let this go.
So you knew about it.
Yeah.
Yeah, I saw him.
And it was no big deal.
Adam was you know, he's always been a sleaze when he's drunk.
You can't stand anyone even looking at Sofia.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're right.
I can't.
And I get it.
You know, I'm an idiot most of the time, but Adam was my best friend.
You know, we had it out, big-time, but well, look, we've been through too much not to sort this out.
OK? Thank God.
Alright, well, I'll I'll get my watch next time.
Aw.
It is the most interesting case we've ever had.
Apart from the koala.
Absolutely no suspects.
Unless, Sofia, the bride-to-be, knows more than she's letting on.
Sofia? Maybe Adam went too far.
Yeah, well someone's trying to call her and she definitely doesn't want to take the call in public.
Someone in the know.
Someone she could turn to.
You need to get your hands on her phone.
Ooh! Hello.
Brody speaking.
Hello? Hello? Hello? Is someone there? Well, I bet Peter's sorry he missed out on this fine bit of real estate.
Well, I've never heard of myself referred to like that before, but I quite agree with you.
Oh, my I'm so I'm so sorry.
Oh! I'm so sorry! That looks like it's quite a tricky bit to get a grip of.
- Look, um, Brody, what are you thinking? - Yeah, it's getting close.
Some timing belts are shot.
Oh.
Timing belt.
Timing belts, well, there you go.
Yeah.
I don't know how to thank you.
It's, um Oh, darling.
Hello.
Hello, darling.
Did you grab something in the dining room? Yes.
Yes, I did.
Hey, Brody.
How's it going there? She'll be back on the road before you know it, mate.
Great.
Great.
OK, Jess, we're going to go to the house.
You need to stay with him and watch him.
Do not let him out of your sight.
What? Yeah, well, good luck and don't forget that that's a very tricky hose, that one.
Leave you to it, Brody.
We've got to go back? So do you know grease monkeys - are they actually monkeys? Is that just a rumour? Jess! Can you come and help Mum with breakfast? Hey? Can you come and help in the kitchen? In the kitchen? You want? Please.
Yep.
OK.
Brody! Hello?! He's down in the shed, darling.
Yeah, I know.
It's just I don't know.
Oh, yeah.
I get you.
So what are we looking for? Anything that gives him a reason to be calling Sofia 15 times in, like, four hours.
Actually, darling, I've got a confession to make.
Does Brody strike you as the kind of guy that would wear contacts? You know that I've never so much as looked at another woman since we met.
I know for a fact that Sofia does.
This is contact solution, in the bathroom, but there's no case for lenses.
I think they've been seeing each other.
It adds up.
I'm almost certain of it.
OK.
So maybe Brody saw Sofia kissing Adam.
Well, he wouldn't react well to that, would he? No, he wouldn't.
Oh, hi.
What are you? Undercover cops? Um well, we Well, you know, in a way No.
No, not officially.
No.
We we we think that someone saw Adam kissing Sofia and that's why he was killed.
Yes.
What? And we think that you love her.
A lot.
I would never kill anyone.
And anyway, Sofia's not like that.
Well she's marrying somebody else and she's, you know, clearly having some sort of relationship with you.
She's only marrying Dean because Franco would never let her marry me.
We were meant to leave before the wedding, but then she said she could just leave.
Said it would break the old man's heart.
Oh, well.
But, no, Elena said that she saw Adam kissing Sofia the night before the wedding.
I don't care what you think.
She wouldn't.
And I didn't kill Adam.
So if you're cops, you can arrest me.
Whatever.
But I didn't do it.
Well, we're not cops.
Now fix whatever you've done to your van and get out.
Um sweetie.
Um Yeah.
You have a beautiful home.
Yeah.
Darling, the keys.
Oh.
We found them we found them on the ground.
Yeah, we should go.
So Sofia was marrying Dean, but in love with Brody.
So why kiss Adam? Of course, that's it! What? I made the same mistake myself this morning.
What? What? I was going to tell you about this before.
II mistook Gianna for you.
I walked into the room and I put my arms around her and I pushed my hip into the back of her leg and I gently cupped her bottom.
Charlie! Anyway, long story short, Brody and Adam.
Same build, same height.
You saw the photo.
It's night-time.
They're in the garden.
No lights.
Dean and Elena thought they were seeing Adam kissing Sofia, but it was actually Brody.
Charlie.
Dean told me that he confronted Adam about the kiss and they made up.
He was lying.
Well, there's only one plausible reason why he was lying.
And presumably you've got a plausible reason for fondling Gianna.
Sure, sure.
And, you know, we can talk about that later.
Right now we've got a villain bang to rights.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
It's been great.
Thank you.
Um, where's Brody? He's working on the Lancer.
Oh, please thank him for fixing the van.
Hey, it is what he loves to do.
Thank you.
Bye.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Uh, Dean.
Dean.
Goodbye.
Yeah, see ya.
Thanks.
Thank you very much for your hospitality.
It's alright.
And, look, Dean, I hope you don't mind me saying this.
Nicola told me about last night, about what you told her, and I just want to say that, um It's impressive, I think, that you're big enough man to forgive Brody for kissing Sofia and all those phone calls.
Adam.
Sorry, Adam.
Stupid of me.
For kissing Sofia.
Um, you know, I think it's the measure of a man to forgive, so, you know.
Yeah, well.
He was my best friend so Yeah.
Well.
Well, goodbye.
Why are you calling my fiancee? It was you, wasn't it? You kissed Sofia, didn't you? Huh? Drop it.
Drop it! On the ground, now.
That's it.
You are under arrest for the murder of Adam McEwen.
You're not obliged to say anything, but anything you do say may be taken down in writing and used as evidence against you.
So it was all just a case of mistaken identity? Mm-hm, the two men look so similar that Dean thought he saw Adam kissing Sofia, not Brody.
He killed Adam by mistake.
Nice work, Vinetti.
Thanks, Deb.
Had a bit of help on this one.
Oh, no.
No.
No.
You pulled your gun, you do the paperwork.
See you back at the station.
Done.
Can I have your business card? I'll just get it from the van.
Good work, Peter.
Thank you, Charlie.
You know, that Charlie I think he likes me.
