Professor T (2021) s02e03 Episode Script
The Family
She's found somebody else.
I think she doesn't
love me anymore.
About
I make us a
nice cup of tea
and then we're going to.
Jasper.
I wish to speak with you.
It's.
Seven O'Clock here so
bring back after nine
and make an appointment.
Like everyone else.
I have a great deal of
lost time to make up for.
Failure.
Media should be thanking you.
Not sure I would
dad hire.
Easily.
Company
never said anything.
Also it's business boss.
I'm sorry done.
For not trusting you.
And.
I'm sorry for.
Your name.
Taking advantage of me it
was a moment of weakness.
Another moment of weakness.
I'm sorry
must be doing ahead
to prepare literacy.
Then.
Get back into bed.
Morning.
Housekeeping.
Hell.
Ooh.
Wasn't that great.
Cuts.
Father may have died from it.
Maybe the sun possibly by.
Car.
Out to say.
Some kind of internal trauma
but we'll now be guessing.
Only recognize
himself.
Maybe the TV.
Doctor Harriet hill.
Aka doctor death.
To our friends in
the tabloid press.
She's a prominent campaigner for
assisted dying according to a website.
Yeah.
Let me.
I.
Done.
Try mister Duncan Stein.
Rabbit.
I've always just
told him I'm going to
be late this morning
I already texted me.
Should one of us call him back.
Don't mean.
The day of.
The
date with the TV in
your boxes on the sofa.
Meeting a friend naturally.
Sorry I didn't mean to pry.
He said
there's nothing to get it done.
To get this whole thing in fact.
Please.
She finished with me.
She finished with you.
Apparently.
Aren't going a little too
well with one of their friends.
Right.
I sense resistance.
Jasper.
Hostility even towards this.
Process that we're undertaking.
Towards the very idea
of reexamining your past.
Do not dwell on the past.
Do not dream of the future concentrate
the mind on the present moment.
But.
Study the past
if you would divine the future.
Confucius.
Have you any
previous experience of.
Psychoanalysis.
In my teenagers.
My mother hoped it would
alleviate my compulsive traits.
And you weren't impressed.
By the outcomes
crux and mount banks every last one
of them paid a fortune to pouch my own
thoughts back at me.
But here you are forty
years later seeking my help.
These sessions.
In your teenage years
did they involve
hypnosis.
Invariably.
Right.
It is often used to surface repressed
memories of childhood trauma.
But it has been
suggested that it
can also lead to
delusional disorders.
Delusional disorders
both specifically.
False memory syndrome.
Boss.
Oh my God
picked a bad morning
following the stalkers.
Happened
to
him.
I don't
tell people any.

as quick as possible
I'm working on it
should I talk to you so
interested counselor style.
Election day.
Once we've established causes of that
desk we can begin to figure out what
order they died
and untreated water.
Feet up shoes off.
Champagne.
So much like she's celebrating.
I felt the same.
We can't ignore that she's an
outspoken supporter of euthanasia
which means our working hypothesis must
be that she killed her family for some
reason before killing herself.
Until proven otherwise.
I'm heading back
to see what else we can find.
The memory of.
Pointing a gun.
At your father
maybe real Jasper but.
This memory.
Of pulling the trigger
that so obsesses you.
I believe may be false.
Confabulation.
An unreal implant so.
Indoctrination.
Call it what you will.
It may be a
manifestation of guilt.
That you feel about your father's
death it's not at all uncommon
for children of.
People who have taken their own lives to
to blame themselves for their parents'
death.
And to feel that.
That.
Somehow they.
Were lovable enough.
To give them reason
to go on living.
In seeking to
recover and confront.
The painful memories of
childhood trauma which
your younger self naturally
has tried to repress you may.
Using the wheel.
With the imaginary.
And so
you've created.
An unresolved mystery.
Around the death of your father.
The sort of mystery.
It would require an eminent
criminologist to solve.
Like your
chosen career your own cd
is also a reaction to the chaos.
That defined your
formative years
attempts to contain
and control it.
If you want to
change your obsessive
thoughts and behavior
behaviors Jasper.
I suggest you need
to face your fears.
About your past
and try and
understand your phobia.
Of intimacy.
Jasper.
Looking forward.
There.
Not from some white boy
in a Chelsea truck then.
Come on we're going to be like.
All
I need is an air
pistol in the shadows.
Well I'm glad you
changed your mind.
I probably will be.
Blocks.
The easiest money
of other minds.
Guaranteed.
Are you sure this is a good idea
but
not entirely mother.
Germs
and intimacy for me.
Here's the full phobic package.
Take care of him I shall treat
him as well as I would treat you
that's what worries me.
I have to have
insurance at least.
That sounds a
trifle superfluous.
He's a pedigree he's potent.
And he'll hump
anything that moves.
Put the price of
puppies such as it is
he's a veritable
canine gold mine.
I shall speak to my insurer and
add him to my home and contents.
Like your mother.
Ladies and gentlemen please indicate
if any of you are regular readers of the
Cambridge career.
Occasional perhaps.
You are a generation obsessed with
the narcissistic posturing and mindless
which rings of attention junkies from
the far flung reaches of the planet yet
with your snouts.
Buried deep in the sulfurous trough
of social media you failed to notice the
multitudes that land daily
on your own doorsteps.
Local media
is a treasure trove.
For that would be
criminal interest.
Familiar aside.
A rap
but progressively growing subset of the
broader category of homicide in which
an individual kills multiple
close family members.
Before killing themselves.
In ninety percent
of cases of spousal
murder ladies and
gentlemen it is the man.
Who is the perpetrator.
But when the murder of one or more chill
Karen is also involved it is just as
likely to be the mother who
has committed the crime.
As the father.
Now at the risk of exposing myself to
all sorts of freudian nonsense are any of
you budding Sherlock's willing
to venture an explanation.
It has
to be the husband as doctor hill herself
even though she a very high profile
supporter of assisted dying
statistically yes
assuming it is a
straightforward case of
that aside
what else would it be
euthanasia is a
controversial subject.
Much like false memory syndrome.
It stirs up anger.
Division.
Violent disagreement.
Is suggesting she may have been a
target for her outspoken views then.
I do not wish to speculate.
Only to keep your mind open to
the existence of other possibilities.
Kai Kai well are there.
Some constitutes like.
If someone was feeling anxious
very anxious I'd say.
For one of the kids you reckon.
For the daughter Madeline.
Take a look at these
case photos I think.
One for every person
she's advised on
assisted dying for some
county she works for.
I'll need to get some legal advice
before we can take a proper look
do you think we might be looking
at a disgruntled family member.
Someone who blames doctor hill for the
death of a loved one who's decided to
take revenge.
If that's the case
we're going to be dealing with
a bloody long list of suspects.
Yeah.
Boss can you take a look.
To.
What about those two.
Briefcase.
Whereby.
What's inside.
Make me anything.
Diamonds.
Cash.
Anthrax powder
nuclear missile codes.
Or it doesn't bother you not
matter what were involved in.
Getting paid good money
to keep our noses clean
otherwise if I had done.
Got myself a guessing Boston
stupid question is cowboy.
I.
For you.
Spear granted that.
Is the garb right.
He was sure this is all kosher
relax
it's fine.
Where you want to give it back.
You're right.
I make double that work in nuts.
Job this Thursday.
Pm to the early hours.
We try to.
Maybe.
Yeah
one of.
I'm going home.
Before I do something
to someone I may regret.
You're welcome professor.
Where's the joke.
The dog.
You know.
So high.
Unfortunate disposition looks like a
cross between a slipper and a gerbil.
If he's out there
then what are you
doing down here.
Looking for a
suitable replacement.
Uptake has been fairly traumatizing
for people connected to vomit.
Thank you for joining us Tesla.
To have a dog professor.
To
absurd.
Okay.
What I've been given a verbal briefing
on the results of the post mortems.
It seems clear
that dr hill overdosed on a large
quantity of sedatives tranquilizers.
Anti anxiety medication.
The overdose threshold is lowered
considerably when taken with alcohol.
Tourists to walk at some
kind of hospice than she
does right by
palliative care how.
Do we think
she got the drugs
from that from what
we found a large quantity of the
same medication at the house mom
and the tracing
her husband's blood
at a lower concentration.
Which suggests he
was his prescription
even though he died
of carbon monoxide
poisoning from the
gas know that's a sun.
Colleagues source for the husband
the law of nitrous oxide to giveaway.
So I mean we can rule them out
from involvement in the other debts.
I mean he could hardly have sat back
down on the sofa of the guessing himself
and his motor.
Unfortunately not.
We could be dealing
with a number of
different combinations
of murder and suicide.
So what else have you learned
about dr hill that get help.
We spoke to the
manager of the kind of
a couple of hours ago.
So
devastating.
Her fellow doctors the nurses.
The patients particularly.
Well in a state of shock.
Were supposed to be celebrating
her tenure work anniversary
champagne cake.
Party after hours.
It's turned into a week.
How does she seem to you.
Are the party.
A little subdued
maybe
not her usual self.
She was anxious to get home
left the party early.
Did you put that
down to anything.
Kenny Holland.
Use.
His daughter Stacey.
A national diving champion.
Paralyzed from the neck down.
In a freak accident
at seventeen.
What a waste.
Can cheer us.
She drifts in and out.
Before her condition western she expressed
a wish to travel to Switzerland to
end her life.
Supposed to be next month.
My mom is very supportive
but does.
That to me.
Violently opposed.
He's very angry.
As.
Well
she often travels with
her patients to Zurich
efficiently.
In case they need
medical care on the journey.
But
in this case she decided not to.
He told me at her
necesary party.
Do you think she scared
off by Kenny Orleans threat.
Provision
requiring.
Except to protect cool
hand and a cold heart
to arrange these deaths to look so
exactly like suicides not a hothead hell
bent on revenge.
Taken.
We should still look into that.
Don't tell me
focus on the family.
The husband shows
traits of neurosis.
Emotional instability.
We did a bit of digging
spoke to the housekeeper.
Currently he's a bit of a neat freak
obsessed with order and his sons routine.
Alexander is diagnosed autistic
so I functioning but
with complications.
D h d and epilepsy.
Nicholas has been his primary care of
the last ten years since giving up his
job as a medical journalist.
He suffered a psychotic episode.
Technically physically.
Even about it.
Is this.
Guy.
Wrote
what's going on
what's the matter.
Don't speak to your
brother like that.
No I not
I just asked you to do.
Alice was her best friend
according to Madeline
talked about harming herself.
All over a laptop
stuff about suicide.
Memes videos social media posts
and the ira but found
this until to his desk.
Yup
the parents paid for madman
to go see a child psychologist.
Get the post-mortem
clearly states that she died
severely break neck.
It's hard to see how that
could have been self inflicted.
Especially since there
are no bookmarks.
Anything you'd like to share.
You sound like my therapist.
Speaking of which.
Mother.
Just by my boy.
Do you remember
old Paso.
How could I forget.
Your childhood companion.
Until you declare
him an hygienic and.
Consigned him to the attic.
I thought she might be
more receptive to your
administrations
than poor old kafka.
I cannot evacuate.
Cannot.
Or will not.
I have company.
At this time of night.
How intriguing.
Tatiana.
Tatiana.
This is my mother
mrs
Adelaide tempest.
Pleased
to meet you.
The pleasure is all mine.
I'm interviewed and
Tatiana for a vacancy.
As my new.
Intimacy coach.
She looks eminently
well-qualified.
I I have a resume.
My mother
as I say.
Three's a crowd.
To worry
I can take a hint.
I don't need to look to.
No previous experience could possibly
prepare you for working with Jesper.
Good luck to you.
Hmm.
That that.
That.
Hi.
It suits me.
Thank you.
You're off.
Hmm.
I could get used to this.
Having you around.
Oh that was too much to say no.
No.
Ok then I nice.
I keep
thinking about what you said
about not mixing work with pleasure.
Yeah I meant that.
Maybe not in the
way that you think.
So how do you mean it.
Maybe it's the walking bit that
needs to give and not the pleasure.
Sorry not what.
Was
an inevitable or physics down that we
have to be partners in Cambridge see I
did not know that.
It just mean maybe.
One of us could
ask for a transfer.
And I try something else.
Yeah
maybe.
Get those off.
Yeah
comical no I meant the gloves.
Gloves yes
I'm afraid the closest thing.
Have become part of me now.
I wasn't.
Dst said one kiss.
Nice to see the old below get
more shackle.
Excuse me
don't tell.
Mr hollande my colleague and I were
hoping to have a quiet word with you.
Solicitor.
You'll get nothing
from me without.
Is just a bit about
grammar of the.
Doctor it help.
I told you.
No priests.
No questions.
She was a patronizing bitch.
Would you say.
You have me.
I'm glad she's dead.
Come
me say beaucoup I.
This.
Can I help you.
You may dry.
Only then will I be able to
ascertain whether you come or not.
I'm sorry.
I have some questions.
About miss Stacy Holland.
And you are.
Professor Jesper tempest.
Consultants with
Cambridge police.
That is a university
library card.
May I ask my questions anyway.
Deal must have arranged
the Dutch yourself.
It just seems the most
obvious explanation.
Superficially perhaps.
But just because she believed
in allowing people the right to die
it does not necessarily follow that she
participated in the deaths of her own
children.
It is my surmise
the doctor her withdrew from
accompanying Stacy Holland Switzerland.
Because she was an uncomfortable
reminder of her own daughter.
And her suicide threats.
She was terrified
of losing her child.
Not hellbent on dispatching her.
Where does that leave us.
We've ruled out Madeline because of the
nature of her injuries and none of us
fancy Nicholas and of
course of his cause of death
about Alexander.
Really
with his diagnosis individuals with
autism are just as capable of acts of
violence as the rest of us.
But I concur
and not regarding
Alexander as a suspect.
I believe the calculation involved in
arranging the bodies of his family on the
sofa would have been beyond him.
Well.
That just leaves a sunless.
Winters.
This is diy lanesboro.
Please call me Simon.
Simon is a visionary drug squad he's
come to me with a question which I wanted
to explain to you.
Yeah I understand that
you've made an approach
question one Kenneth
Joseph Holland and for reasons
I can't go into right now
I'd like to ask you nicely to.
Desist at least
for the time being
can we ask why.
Holland runs
a road haulage business and he's a
person of considerable interest to us has
been for quite some time.
Allows for the time being.
Couple of weeks.
Month tops
he may well be
in custody by then.
And hopefully he'll have twenty or
thirty years to answer your questions.
How were you alerted.
Oh I'm sorry we
have been introduced.
This is professor Jasper attempt
to start consulting the criminologist.
How did you know the deer stalkers
and just winters were making inquires.
Well I'm not at Liberty to
say as you can imagine.
That we need to know is that we are
getting intel on Holland from a variety of
sources.
Charming.
We can't question Kenny Holland but
there's nothing to say we can't keep
digging into his background.
You will be wasting your time.
And mine.
At least
in relation to the
current inquiry.
Your forensic team has been over
every micrometer of the property.
There's no evidence of violence
or any form of a struggle.
It would be beyond the wit of the most
sophisticated and imaginative criminal.
To stage that gruesome
tableaux without coercion
let alone a sausage fingered me
to like Kenny Holland.
So where does that leave us.
We now have precisely
zero murder suspects.
Leaves you to make the logical deduction
that you have precisely zero matters.
And let us do with
the victims one by one.
Madeline hill.
Age seventeen severe fractures to
the third and fourth cervical vertebrae
leading to a six year.
Estimated time of death
between three and four pm.
I have compared and
contrasted a number of scenarios.
That might account for the
presence of the broken guitar.
With Alexandra at the care center and
doctor hill at the clinic at the time we
believe Madeline died.
Dave Miller.
Only one.
Makes any sense.
Medically please
why are you so hostile.
It's maddening.
And I'm hostile because your pet
health is ruining my life stop calling
that name.
It
bloody off
they go again taking his side I've
simply asked you not to play your guitar
when he's in the
house that's all.
You just try and stop me.
Hmm stop it.
Study.
Nicholas kept the
house in perfect order.
Except for one
small detail.
Solitary flaw.
In an otherwise immaculate home.
But a fatal one.
Nevertheless.
Yeah.
Boy did he carry
out of the sofa.
A final gesture of caring.
Of concert.
Cast your mind
back to the kitchen
detective sergeant.
What did you see.
Nothing it was spotless.
Just like how I imagine
your kitchen might look
precisely.
It is my belief that the husband may
well have been on the autistic spectrum.
But undiagnosed
is
relevant.
Very much so.
To his thought process.
At first.
He is gripped by panic.
Then quite a different
thought takes hold.
Gear is trapped in a tunnel.
There's only one way out.
However.
It is not uncommon for fathers
under extreme psychological pressure.
To come to the delusion that it will be
impossible for their families to go on
without them.
We know that shortly after six pm some
time after Madeleine's estimated time of
death.
Nicholas picked up Alexander
from the daycare center.
It is my belief that his dominant
thoughts to protect his son.
In the only way he knew how.
By killing him.
While also killing himself.
Thus turning a tragic accident.
Into a familiar sight.
Thanks.
Yeah he'll have a bit of fun.
To try.
Are going to drive.
Focus on the road when you look
straight at.
Prove any of that.
But it is a reasonable deduction
from the forensic report.
Which states
clearly that the son's
fingerprints were found
on the steering wheel.
One great danger
into an even more
considerable one.
The gas was still
on in the kitchen.
Precisely
it would have been
quickly overwhelmed.
Dr hill then came
home to discover job.
I imagine her first thought must
have been that her daughter.
Had finally followed
through on her threats.
Cafe.
Poor women.
You're going to get was.
Especially.
For.
Gtc.
Mentalist.
If
mom.
Do you wanna dance.
I just cant imagine.
Someone of that age
twenty two in my life.
It's a tremendous relief.
However cycle on what you are
to be in control.
To have a choice.
Die with dignity.
I think she doesn't
love me anymore.
About
I make us a
nice cup of tea
and then we're going to.
Jasper.
I wish to speak with you.
It's.
Seven O'Clock here so
bring back after nine
and make an appointment.
Like everyone else.
I have a great deal of
lost time to make up for.
Failure.
Media should be thanking you.
Not sure I would
dad hire.

Company
never said anything.
Also it's business boss.
I'm sorry done.
For not trusting you.
And.
I'm sorry for.
Your name.
Taking advantage of me it
was a moment of weakness.
Another moment of weakness.
I'm sorry
must be doing ahead
to prepare literacy.
Then.
Get back into bed.
Morning.
Housekeeping.
Hell.
Ooh.
Wasn't that great.
Cuts.
Father may have died from it.
Maybe the sun possibly by.
Car.
Out to say.
Some kind of internal trauma
but we'll now be guessing.
Only recognize
himself.
Maybe the TV.

she's advised on
assisted dying for some
county she works for.
I'll need to get some legal advice
before we can take a proper look
do you think we might be looking
at a disgruntled family member.
Someone who blames doctor hill for the
death of a loved one who's decided to
take revenge.
If that's the case
we're going to be dealing with
a bloody long list of suspects.
Yeah.
Boss can you take a look.
To.
What about those two.
Briefcase.
Whereby.
What's inside.
Make me anything.
Diamonds.
Cash.
Anthrax powder
nuclear missile codes.
Or it doesn't bother you not
matter what were involved in.
Getting paid good money
to keep our noses clean
otherwise if I had done.
Got myself a guessing Boston
stupid question is cowboy.
I.
For you.
Spear granted that.
Is the garb right.
He was sure this is all kosher
relax
it's fine.
Where you want to give it back.
You're right.
I make double that work in nuts.
Job this Thursday.
Pm to the early hours.
We try to.
Maybe.
Yeah
one of.
I'm going home.
Before I do something
to someone I may regret.
You're welcome professor.
Where's the joke.
The dog.
You know.
So high.
Unfortunate disposition looks like a
cross between a slipper and a gerbil.
If he's out there
then what are you
doing down here.
Looking for a
suitable replacement.
Uptake has been fairly traumatizing
for people connected to vomit.
Thank you for joining us Tesla.
To have a dog professor.
To
absurd.
Okay.
What I've been given a verbal briefing
on the results of the post mortems.
It seems clear
that dr hill overdosed on a large
quantity of sedatives tranquilizers.
Anti anxiety medication.
The overdose threshold is lowered
considerably when taken with alcohol.
Tourists to walk at some
kind of hospice than she
does right by
palliative care how.
Do we think
she got the drugs
from that from what
we found a large quantity of the
same medication at the house mom
and the tracing
her husband's blood
at a lower concentration.
Which suggests he
was his prescription
even though he died
of carbon monoxide
poisoning from the
gas know that's a sun.
Colleagues source for the husband
the law of nitrous oxide to giveaway.
So I mean we can rule them out
from involvement in the other debts.
I mean he could hardly have sat back
down on the sofa of the guessing himself
and his motor.
Unfortunately not.
We could be dealing
with a number of
different combinations
of murder and suicide.
So what else have you learned
about dr hill that get help.
We spoke to the
manager of the kind of
a couple of hours ago.
So
devastating.
Her fellow doctors the nurses.
The patients particularly.
Well in a state of shock.
Were supposed to be celebrating
her tenure work anniversary
champagne cake.
Party after hours.
It's turned into a week.
How does she seem to you.
Are the party.
A little subdued
maybe
not her usual self.
She was anxious to get home
left the party early.
Did you put that
down to anything.
Kenny Holland.
Use.
His daughter Stacey.
A national diving champion.
Paralyzed from the neck down.
In a freak accident
at seventeen.
What a waste.
Can cheer us.
She drifts in and out.
Before her condition western she expressed
a wish to travel to Switzerland to
end her life.
Supposed to be next month.
My mom is very supportive
but does.
That to me.
Violently opposed.
He's very angry.
As.
Well
she often travels with
her patients to Zurich
efficiently.
In case they need
medical care on the journey.
But
in this case she decided not to.
He told me at her
necesary party.
Do you think she scared
off by Kenny Orleans threat.
Provision
requiring.
Except to protect cool
hand and a cold heart
to arrange these deaths to look so
exactly like suicides not a hothead hell
bent on revenge.
Taken.
We should still look into that.
Don't tell me
focus on the family.
The husband shows
traits of neurosis.
Emotional instability.
We did a bit of digging
spoke to the housekeeper.
Currently he's a bit of a neat freak
obsessed with order and his sons routine.
Alexander is diagnosed autistic
so I functioning but
with complications.
D h d and epilepsy.
Nicholas has been his primary care of
the last ten years since giving up his
job as a medical journalist.
He suffered a psychotic episode.
Technically physically.
Even about it.
Is this.
Guy.
Wrote
what's going on
what's the matter.
Don't speak to your
brother like that.
No I not
I just asked you to do.
Alice was her best friend
according to Madeline
talked about harming herself.
All over a laptop
stuff about suicide.
Memes videos social media posts
and the ira but found
this until to his desk.
Yup
the parents paid for madman
to go see a child psychologist.
Get the post-mortem
clearly states that she died
severely break neck.
It's hard to see how that
could have been self inflicted.
Especially since there
are no bookmarks.
Anything you'd like to share.
You sound like my therapist.
Speaking of which.
Mother.
Just by my boy.
Do you remember
old Paso.
How could I forget.
Your childhood companion.
Until you declare
him an hygienic and.
Consigned him to the attic.
I thought she might be
more receptive to your
administrations
than poor old kafka.
I cannot evacuate.
Cannot.
Or will not.
I have company.
At this time of night.
How intriguing.
Tatiana.
Tatiana.
This is my mother
mrs
Adelaide tempest.
Pleased
to meet you.
The pleasure is all mine.
I'm interviewed and
Tatiana for a vacancy.
As my new.
Intimacy coach.
She looks eminently
well-qualified.
I I have a resume.
My mother
as I say.
Three's a crowd.
To worry
I can take a hint.
I don't need to look to.
No previous experience could possibly
prepare you for working with Jesper.
Good luck to you.
Hmm.
That that.
That.
Hi.
It suits me.
Thank you.
You're off.
Hmm.
I could get used to this.
Having you around.
Oh that was too much to say no.
No.
Ok then I nice.
I keep
thinking about what you said
about not mixing work with pleasure.
Yeah I meant that.
Maybe not in the
way that you think.
So how do you mean it.
Maybe it's the walking bit that
needs to give and not the pleasure.
Sorry not what.
Was
an inevitable or physics down that we
have to be partners in Cambridge see I
did not know that.
It just mean maybe.
One of us could
ask for a transfer.
And I try something else.
Yeah
maybe.
Get those off.
Yeah
comical no I meant the gloves.
Gloves yes
I'm afraid the closest thing.
Have become part of me now.
I wasn't.
Dst said one kiss.
Nice to see the old below get
more shackle.
Excuse me
don't tell.
Mr hollande my colleague and I were
hoping to have a quiet word with you.
Solicitor.
You'll get nothing
from me without.
Is just a bit about
grammar of the.
Doctor it help.
I told you.
No priests.
No questions.
She was a patronizing bitch.
Would you say.
You have me.
I'm glad she's dead.
Come
me say beaucoup I.
This.
Can I help you.
You may dry.
Only then will I be able to
ascertain whether you come or not.
I'm sorry.
I have some questions.
About miss Stacy Holland.
And you are.
Professor Jesper tempest.
Consultants with
Cambridge police.
That is a university
library card.
May I ask my questions anyway.
Deal must have arranged
the Dutch yourself.
It just seems the most
obvious explanation.
Superficially perhaps.
But just because she believed
in allowing people the right to die
it does not necessarily follow that she
participated in the deaths of her own
children.
It is my surmise
the doctor her withdrew from
accompanying Stacy Holland Switzerland.
Because she was an uncomfortable
reminder of her own daughter.
And her suicide threats.
She was terrified
of losing her child.
Not hellbent on dispatching her.
Where does that leave us.
We've ruled out Madeline because of the
nature of her injuries and none of us
fancy Nicholas and of
course of his cause of death
about Alexander.
Really
with his diagnosis individuals with
autism are just as capable of acts of
violence as the rest of us.
But I concur
and not regarding
Alexander as a suspect.
I believe the calculation involved in
arranging the bodies of his family on the
sofa would have been beyond him.
Well.
That just leaves a sunless.
Winters.
This is diy lanesboro.
Please call me Simon.
Simon is a visionary drug squad he's
come to me with a question which I wanted
to explain to you.
Yeah I understand that
you've made an approach
question one Kenneth
Joseph Holland and for reasons
I can't go into right now
I'd like to ask you nicely to.
Desist at least
for the time being
can we ask why.
Holland runs
a road haulage business and he's a
person of considerable interest to us has
been for quite some time.
Allows for the time being.
Couple of weeks.
Month tops
he may well be
in custody by then.
And hopefully he'll have twenty or
thirty years to answer your questions.
How were you alerted.
Oh I'm sorry we
have been introduced.
This is professor Jasper attempt
to start consulting the criminologist.
How did you know the deer stalkers
and just winters were making inquires.
Well I'm not at Liberty to
say as you can imagine.
That we need to know is that we are
getting intel on Holland from a variety of
sources.
Charming.
We can't question Kenny Holland but
there's nothing to say we can't keep
digging into his background.
You will be wasting your time.
And mine.
At least
in relation to the
current inquiry.
Your forensic team has been over
every micrometer of the property.
There's no evidence of violence
or any form of a struggle.
It would be beyond the wit of the most
sophisticated and imaginative criminal.
To stage that gruesome
tableaux without coercion
let alone a sausage fingered me
to like Kenny Holland.
So where does that leave us.
We now have precisely
zero murder suspects.
Leaves you to make the logical deduction
that you have precisely zero matters.
And let us do with
the victims one by one.
Madeline hill.
Age seventeen severe fractures to
the third and fourth cervical vertebrae
leading to a six year.
Estimated time of death
between three and four pm.
I have compared and
contrasted a number of scenarios.
That might account for the
presence of the broken guitar.
With Alexandra at the care center and
doctor hill at the clinic at the time we
believe Madeline died.
Dave Miller.
Only one.
Makes any sense.
Medically please
why are you so hostile.
It's maddening.
And I'm hostile because your pet
health is ruining my life stop calling
that name.
It
bloody off
they go again taking his side I've
simply asked you not to play your guitar
when he's in the
house that's all.
You just try and stop me.
Hmm stop it.
Study.
Nicholas kept the
house in perfect order.
Except for one
small detail.
Solitary flaw.
In an otherwise immaculate home.
But a fatal one.
Nevertheless.
Yeah.
Boy did he carry
out of the sofa.
A final gesture of caring.
Of concert.
Cast your mind
back to the kitchen
detective sergeant.
What did you see.
Nothing it was spotless.
Just like how I imagine
your kitchen might look
precisely.
It is my belief that the husband may
well have been on the autistic spectrum.
But undiagnosed
is
relevant.
Very much so.
To his thought process.
At first.
He is gripped by panic.
Then quite a different
thought takes hold.
Gear is trapped in a tunnel.
There's only one way out.
However.
It is not uncommon for fathers
under extreme psychological pressure.
To come to the delusion that it will be
impossible for their families to go on
without them.
We know that shortly after six pm some
time after Madeleine's estimated time of
death.
Nicholas picked up Alexander
from the daycare center.
It is my belief that his dominant
thoughts to protect his son.
In the only way he knew how.
By killing him.
While also killing himself.
Thus turning a tragic accident.
Into a familiar sight.
Thanks.
Yeah he'll have a bit of fun.
To try.
Are going to drive.
Focus on the road when you look
straight at.
Prove any of that.
But it is a reasonable deduction
from the forensic report.
Which states
clearly that the son's
fingerprints were found
on the steering wheel.
One great danger
into an even more
considerable one.
The gas was still
on in the kitchen.
Precisely
it would have been
quickly overwhelmed.
Dr hill then came
home to discover job.
I imagine her first thought must
have been that her daughter.
Had finally followed
through on her threats.
Cafe.
Poor women.
You're going to get was.
Especially.
For.
Gtc.
Mentalist.
If
mom.
Do you wanna dance.
I just cant imagine.
Someone of that age
twenty two in my life.
It's a tremendous relief.
However cycle on what you are
to be in control.
To have a choice.
Die with dignity.
