00:00Apparently you're under suspension. I was stitched up. I would never tamper with
00:04evidence. The only station in the whole of Australia that will employ you, there's
00:10one. Oh! Mac, before you go, glad to see it's not just me she walks out on. Walks out of
00:16rooms, not weddings. What, six years you still haven't figured it out? You just
00:21left without even giving me a thought. I wanted more. Mac!
00:27Here you are. Frankie, you could have told me.
00:57La Belle Dauphine, this is Bianca. I can squeeze you in tomorrow morning. See you in
01:16eight weeks. Remember, it will survive. You're going to look awesome. Tani's the best.
01:22Donna, sweetheart, over here. Oh, we're doing extensions today, Daz. Yeah, I just thought
01:30I'd do something fun for my anniversary. So fun. I can still surf. Good morning, ladies.
01:36Darling, how are you? My braids are going to fall. Section it off.
01:40Braid. That's going to look so beautiful. As long as it still looks like me, you know.
01:53Sorry, you made me jump. Well, I have got another surprise for you.
01:58Happy birthday, Bestie! We're taking you to lunch? We have booked a table at The Hut.
02:08I've just got to finish doing Daisy's hair. Oh, thanks, girls.
02:13OK, I need to make some calls. OK? OK.
02:20Get ready, Daisy. First things first, blow dry.
02:27I forgot to say, the booking's at 12, so we're heading over in about an hour or so.
02:33Yeah, almond oil. And I would love to get that by tomorrow morning.
02:43Wow, they look beautiful. What, not too much? For an anniversary? No way. Yeah, it's nice,
02:50isn't it? All right. Thank you. I will see you lot in 15 minutes or so. OK. OK, bye. Bye,
02:57darling. All right, Donna, let's do it. All right. Bianca, Skye, lunch. Bianca, lunch.
03:13I guess she's waiting instead. Skye, we going? Yeah, two seconds. I'm nearly done. Hey, look at
03:19this. What is that? It's something like red velvet. Yeah, Bianca's favourite. Ever since
03:32she saw it in a magazine, we were in year five. OK, can we off? Yeah. Where's Bianca?
03:38Um, she's going to meet us there. Oh, typical. All right, let's go then.
03:49Still no reply. She probably just got caught up on the phone. She won't be far off. Oh,
04:04no Bianca. Did you want to order? I don't know why we bothered. She was never going to show.
04:13Sorry, Daisy. Yeah, it's fine. Hey, your hair looks fab. Oh, thank you.
04:20She probably just got caught up, you know. You know how hard she works. I know how hard she
04:26says she works. Bianca? Bianca? Bianca? Bianca?
04:49Bianca?
05:19Bianca?
05:50Hello?
06:03Blunt, you're already here. Hey, Cole.
06:07Back? What have we got? Looks like strangulation,
06:12suffusion in the face with some muddling of the skin just here. No liver mortis yet,
06:17no rigor mortis. The body's still at a normal temperature, suggesting the death occurred sometime
06:21in the past couple of hours. What was the ligature? We don't have one. Looks like there
06:25was a bit of a struggle, though. Which means it probably wasn't quick. How long? Hard to say
06:30exactly, but if she was struggling, at least a minute or two. Maybe. I'll get that.
06:39Robbery? There's nothing here to take. Salon went cashless
06:4711 weeks ago. Security cameras? Unfortunately not. It's a terrifying way to die.
06:55Have you had a look around here? Briefly, but I didn't touch anything.
07:08Massage room?
07:27There's no smoke detector in here. So?
07:30So? Do you want me to refer them for a safety bridge?
07:33Or shall we talk to the staff?
07:41So I sort of organised this kind of like surprise lunch for Bianca for her birthday.
07:49Tani Jones Senior Stylist.
07:54So I booked lunch for 12 and then when it came time to go, Bianca got stuck on the phone.
08:01So we left. Did you lock the door?
08:06No, no, because Bianca was here. And you left together?
08:10Yeah, yeah. So we were out here and we were looking at the cake that I got, which was red
08:16velvet and Sky was... Sky Bailey? Yeah, I'm her sister. I'm Bianca's sister. And so I was in the
08:22washroom and then I came here and then the three of us, we left. We left at the same time.
08:28So that must make you Donna Smithick, the apprentice.
08:35Can you talk us through exactly what happened? When did you come back?
08:40It was about one. So that's when we, that's when we found her.
08:47My best friend since year two. Really?
08:49Yeah. We both wore tiaras on our first day at Aries Inlet and we've been best friends ever since.
08:56Down in Victoria? Yeah, yeah. We moved up here when Bianca,
09:01Sky and Bianca's mum passed away and she set up the salon.
09:07Where's the smoke detector? So what?
09:10In the massage room, there's no smoke detector. Um, is that? Sorry, are we in trouble?
09:16We're investigating everything at this stage.
09:21So who first spotted Bianca? So I searched the perimeter of the building.
09:24We? You're guarding the door the whole time.
09:27Go on. Okay, so no signs of disturbance,
09:30nothing that suggests a robbery. Okay, well you two canvas the neighbours,
09:35see if anyone saw anything between midday and one. Consider them canvassed.
09:46Door unlocked, all the staff at lunch. Anyone could have walked in off the street.
09:51Look at this. Bianca had back to back appointments, treatments, meetings with suppliers,
09:56evening training for new products. She didn't do anything else.
09:59So? So this place was her entire life.
10:03It filled every minute of her day.
10:08Did Donna go through here? Yeah.
10:13This is an active crime scene, you can't just walk away.
10:17I just needed a moment.
10:22What were you inside for?
10:26It's a prison tattoo, isn't it? Armed robbery.
10:33I did nine years. It must have been hard to get a job.
10:37Well, I came here for a fresh start, but people weren't exactly keen to hire a crim, so
10:43Bianca took a chance on me. That was good of her.
10:46She was all right. As long as you didn't get in her way.
10:50Did you get in her way? If there's one thing you learn inside,
10:54it's how to keep your head down.
11:01This is a murder investigation. You're a witness, Donna. So who did get in her way?
11:07Her landlord. She hated him. I saw him. I thought she was going to take his head off.
11:13When was this? Last week.
11:15They were out in the garden, screaming at each other, as usual.
11:19About what? I don't know.
11:22He drops around all the time. Hey, mate.
11:25That's all for now, Donna.
11:29Ah, just before you. Anything?
11:31Not yet. I've set up a meeting.
11:34Just before you. Anything?
11:35Not yet. I've sent the body for an autopsy.
11:39It was something else, actually. I wanted to see if you'd be keen to
11:42look after Frankie this weekend. Oh, um.
11:45You don't have to. Mum said she would if she had to, but you know how she feels about dogs.
11:49No, I'd love to. Great.
11:51I'm away for a couple of days camping. Yeah, just going.
11:55Daisy can talk to us. Yeah, well, um, just, you know,
11:58drop her over whenever.
12:13They didn't leave. None of them?
12:16Well, maybe to use the bathroom, but what's that, like, two minutes?
12:20It's ten minutes at least to the salon. Did anyone stop at their table?
12:25Mm, just me. But it was busy, so I can't be 100% sure.
12:31That must be devastated. Or Bianca.
12:35Hope this hasn't put a damper on your anniversary weekend.
12:39It's your anniversary. Five years.
12:43And you're going camping. Glamping.
12:46Yeah, it's fancy. Hence the...
12:50You're taking care of Frankie, aren't you? Yeah.
12:52Yeah. Thanks for your help.
12:55OK. What a dream, eh?
12:59A couple of nights in the national park. Under the stars.
13:04With the mosquitoes. Spiders.
13:07Snakes. Wombat will take a good chunk out of your leg if you let it.
13:12Not my idea of fun.
13:17So, it seems the salon girls were all definitely at lunch.
13:21Maybe it was some off the street.
13:24Yeah, possible, sure, but random murders, they don't happen very often, no.
13:28People are killed by those closest to them.
13:32You think the staff? They were alibis.
13:37At lunch together, in full view.
13:41So, if the killer was at that table, how did they do it?
13:51Tarnie Jones. Victim's best friend since kindergarten.
13:57Reminds me of my best friend.
14:00Glenn?
14:02My old best friend. Known him since nursery.
14:06We bonded over eating glue.
14:10That explains a lot. Sky, the sister. Donna has a record.
14:15Robbery, like she said. Nine years. Model prisoner.
14:19Paroled. First job was apprentice to Bianca.
14:22It's very altruistic of her to hire an ex-crim.
14:25Especially an upmarket salon with a very strong image.
14:28Who inherits?
14:31No will. Parents dead. So, in theory, the sister, Sky.
14:35And no witnesses saw anyone coming or going?
14:38Felix and Reggie are door knocking.
14:39But the door, it was unlocked. So, it doesn't have to be one of these three girls.
14:44Hmm. No, Bianca was working 24-7 to keep that place going.
14:49She had no social life, no hobbies. The only people in her life?
14:53Those three employees.
14:55None of them were anywhere near the salon at the time of the murder.
14:57So, what sort of employer was she?
14:59Well, they were throwing her a surprise party.
15:02Hardly the kind of thing you do if you don't like your boss.
15:05Unless you're sucking up. I mean, we have all fantasised about killing our boss.
15:10Hmm.
15:11Oi.
15:13No, we can't rule out the people closest to Bianca. They might hold the answer.
15:18Well, if they don't, it might be the guy she owes 60 grand to.
15:22Bianca's landlord. According to these texts, she was behind on her rent. A long way behind.
15:29Donna saw them arguing last week. What's his name?
15:32Troy Lexton.
15:34Right. Find out where he is and what he's doing.
15:36Mackenzie, just before you go, can we have a word?
15:41Okay. Let's get this out of the way. HR are sending a contract for you.
15:54Why?
15:54Because they're sick of paying your casual rates. They want to put you on permanent.
15:57And no one in the entire police force has ever stopped them getting what they want.
16:02But I'm only here temporarily.
16:04But what if you're not? There's no guarantee that you're going to be cleared.
16:08I have to be. I didn't do anything wrong.
16:12And no one whose innocence ever been found guilty before?
16:16This is different. We had him and the key evidence disappeared.
16:23How?
16:24Someone on the inside. It's my theory.
16:25Oh, really?
16:27It's the only thing that makes sense, huh?
16:30Be that as it may, you either work here or you don't.
16:35HR, they want an answer in the next couple of days.
16:38Understand?
16:39Yeah.
16:43Mackenzie, I found Troy Lexton.
16:46Yes, I said I'd fix the ceiling fan.
16:49Troy Lexton?
16:50No, stop calling me or I'll have to put you out on the street, okay?
16:56Uh, yeah, look, I was joking about evicting her. I wouldn't do that.
17:00We want to talk to you about the murder of Bianca Bailey.
17:04Uh, what? When?
17:06At her salon, around lunchtime today.
17:09Gee, that's... that's awful.
17:11She owed you money. She was 60 grand behind on the rent.
17:14No, she... she paid me.
17:17When?
17:18Well, not all of it. She gave me 42k in cash and said she'd get the rest soon.
17:23Not going to get it now, am I?
17:25Where did she get the money?
17:26No idea. My old man always used to say,
17:30You don't think I had anything to do with it, do you?
17:34Where were you between noon and 1pm today?
17:36Well, I was nowhere near the place.
17:38I was inspecting a building in the industrial park on Southie Road.
17:42Did, uh... did anyone see you?
17:45No, but... hey, hang on a sec.
17:50Ah.
17:52Hey, I'm sorry.
17:53It's okay.
17:53I'm sorry.
17:54I'm sorry.
17:54I'm sorry.
17:55I'm sorry.
17:55I'm sorry.
17:56I'm sorry.
17:56I'm sorry.
17:57I'm sorry.
17:57I'm sorry.
17:58I'm sorry.
17:58I'm sorry.
18:00Charging for parking in a coastal town, profiteering at its worst.
18:06Look, the anchor could be a pain, but it's always sad to lose a tenant.
18:12It's sad when someone dies.
18:14Right.
18:16Yeah.
18:22Why isn't there a smoke detector in the massage room?
18:25Well, there is.
18:27Look, no idea how that happened.
18:29I will get on to replacing that as soon as I can in my properties.
18:33Okay.
18:33Cheers.
18:34Safety comes first.
18:36Mackenzie.
18:51She was definitely strangled, as we suspected.
18:53She was definitely strangled, as we suspected.
18:56I found symptomatic petechia, broken capillaries and oedema.
18:59And a broken hyoid bone.
19:01What was the ligature?
19:02Good question.
19:03It definitely wasn't the hair-dry cord.
19:06How do you know?
19:07The ligature marks.
19:08If it was a cord or rope, they'd be darker, narrower, more focused.
19:12But these are fainter than usual and a bit more spread out.
19:15So what?
19:16A belt?
19:17A scarf?
19:19Maybe.
19:20I'm not willing to rule that out at this stage or in.
19:22I still need a bit more information there.
19:27Is that it?
19:28For now, yep.
19:29I'll keep going.
19:32When are you two heading off?
19:34Oh, yeah.
19:36You and Daisy.
19:38That's why I'm looking after Frankie, isn't it?
19:39For your anniversary?
19:42We chatted to her.
19:43She's pumped for it.
19:44She's got her hair done.
19:45Should be fun.
19:46Camping, it's just, it's the best.
19:49I've actually got quite a bit to do here.
19:52I'll let you know if I find anything else.
19:54Cheers.
20:13So Skye's background check had her living in Aireys Inlet
20:16until she left at 16 and moved around all over the place,
20:18which made me wonder if something had happened,
20:20which led me to the local newspapers,
20:22which led me to...
20:24To her.
20:26Hi, Skye.
20:26Hi.
20:28Thanks for coming.
20:30Yeah, I mean, anything I can do to help.
20:32First thing, tell us about being a teenage arsonist.
20:36How is...
20:38How is that relevant?
20:39That was a long time ago and...
20:41What I don't understand is why your little accomplice
20:43was convicted and you weren't.
20:46Do we really have to do this now?
20:48Your sister's dead, Skye.
20:51Oh.
20:53Wow, um, okay.
20:56Look, my mum pulled some strings.
20:59I don't know what else to say.
21:00Well, that was lucky for you.
21:01It wasn't lucky for me because then she chucked me out.
21:06At 16?
21:07Yes.
21:07Bianca and I were raised in a very strict religious household and...
21:13I brought shame on the family,
21:14so she made my charge disappear and in return I had to go.
21:19Did Bianca contact you at all?
21:22Mum had a real hold over her.
21:25What happened then?
21:26I went off the rails, didn't I?
21:27My own mother completely cut me off.
21:31What changed?
21:33Mum died.
21:36I know that sounds really bad, but it freed me.
21:41Like, I just felt like she couldn't judge me anymore
21:43and I reconnected with Bianca and just everything changed.
21:47You know, she'd set up the salon.
21:49She gave me a job.
21:50It was just, it was a new start.
21:53And now you inherit it all.
21:55Excuse me?
21:56Well, she doesn't have a will, Skye.
21:57It's all yours.
22:01I was at a lunch and I came back and my sister was dead on the floor.
22:09Okay, so I could inherit a hundred salons
22:13and it will never make up for the fact that I will never see her again.
22:17I'll never see her again.
22:22Kicked off home at 16.
22:26She looks so fresh-faced in that photo.
22:28Hair looks a lot lighter.
22:30So the salon was behind on rent,
22:32yet Bianca finds 42 grand to pay most of it off.
22:36Where from?
22:36I'm going to head back there, get into the books,
22:39see if I can find the answer.
22:42Skye's got an unhappy history with her sister,
22:44but it looks like they were repairing it.
22:46Tani was supposedly Bianca's best friend,
22:49so there could be something there.
22:50She was at lunch anyway.
22:52And, well, Troy Lexton, he's a real piece of work,
22:54but he was nowhere near the place.
22:57What was going on in that salon?
23:00Hey, chills down, folks.
23:02We have cracked it.
23:03White thorn bone from Thornbone Quality Meats
23:05from across the road from the salon.
23:07Now he shut his shop early yesterday
23:09because the Trevally were biting,
23:10but we got him this morning.
23:11Yeah, he said someone walked in there around about 12.55.
23:1512.55?
23:16Who?
23:17He said he didn't know him,
23:18but he said he was an Asian bloke
23:19with polyester slacks and brown shoes.
23:22Troy Lexton?
23:22Yeah, but he's alibied.
23:24No, his car is alibied.
23:26How long was he in there for?
23:28Oh, Wade told us he cubed the shoulder of lamp
23:30of Mrs. Merritt and rang it up.
23:32Wrapped it?
23:33Wrapped it up, and then Troy came out.
23:36How long were we talking?
23:37Two to three minutes.
23:38Yeah, yeah.
23:39Long enough.
23:43Come on.
23:45Come on.
23:57Hey, can you get off the lawn?
23:59I just mowed it.
24:01What are you doing?
24:04What side of the road did you park on, Troy?
24:07What?
24:07At the industrial estate yesterday.
24:10They marked the bay numbers on the ticket,
24:11but we won't test you on that.
24:13So just tell us.
24:15Was it the east side of the road or west?
24:18Yeah, I'm not really good with directions.
24:20East is the beach.
24:21West is the escarpment.
24:24Uh, east?
24:26Oh, Troy.
24:28So close.
24:31You weren't in the car, were you?
24:32Troy.
24:33Oh, Dad, just go inside.
24:35Don't make lunch.
24:38Look, you can't prove that.
24:41We spoke to Kirsten.
24:43Kirsten at your office.
24:44Kirsten who borrowed the car to do the inspection.
24:48Yeah, look, I, um, I was...
24:51Oh, and a witness saw you going into La Belle de Fene at 12.55pm.
24:57What? That's, that's crazy.
24:58I was nowhere near the place.
25:00Asian bloke in polyester slacks.
25:02They're wool.
25:03Brown shoes.
25:04Well, they're actually more caramel.
25:05Sweating like you wouldn't believe.
25:07Okay, okay, I did go to the salon.
25:10Why?
25:13The rent.
25:15I wanted the rest of it.
25:16I went there to talk to her about figuring out a fair payment plan, but...
25:22Yeah, come.
25:22When I got there, I, uh...
25:24Yeah, come.
25:25Found her dead.
25:28So I just bolded it as quick as I could.
25:32I didn't do it on purpose.
25:33I didn't do it on purpose.
25:35No, I didn't kill her.
25:38I mean, why would I?
25:40No, I never get my money.
25:43Why didn't you tell us?
25:46I didn't want to make things worse for myself.
25:48I just, you know, I panicked.
25:55Come on, let's go back to the salon.
25:57Turn it over knowing what we know.
26:00You just get away from the door!
26:02Dad!
26:03Go in!
26:19Felix, can we keep an eye on Troy Lexton?
26:22Yeah, well, he might not have motive to kill Bianca,
26:24but he lied about finding the body, so...
26:26Something else is going on.
26:28Yep.
26:33Sick waves this morning.
26:37Were they?
26:39No better way to start the day.
26:41Being at the water, sun shining.
26:44The other morning, I literally saw dolphins.
26:48Oh, in Dolphin Cove?
26:50Well, I never.
26:52I'm just saying, when I was a kid,
26:55if you'd have told me one day I'd be surfing with dolphins...
26:58Don't you ever find it boring?
27:00No way.
27:02They jump out of the water.
27:08I was talking about the weather.
27:12I miss the grey skies.
27:14Rain, bit of wind.
27:16The kind of weather that inspires great literature.
27:20Only because there's nothing better to do.
27:23Guarantee you, if Charlotte Bronte owned a surfboard,
27:26Wuthering Heights would never have happened.
27:28That was Emily Bronte.
27:33And you're making my argument for me.
27:37Hey, this is interesting.
27:40Tani has a brochure for a nursing home in Victoria.
27:45Must be for a relative.
27:48And an unpaid invoice from them.
27:52For 42 grand.
27:58I appreciate you meeting me here, Tani.
28:01Of course.
28:02Tell me about your grandma.
28:12What?
28:13She was meant to be moving into Heritage House Supported Care,
28:16but the deposit was never paid and she lost her place.
28:18$42,000.
28:19What happened?
28:21We decided that this wasn't a right fit for her.
28:26Or did you give the money to Bianca for the rent?
28:32I thought that I was buying into the business.
28:39Didn't you know the financial state of the salon?
28:41Bianca told me the salon was thriving,
28:45that we could run it together.
28:47Best friends forever.
28:49She said that I'd make enough money to move my nan up here.
28:54Somewhere warmer.
28:56So she lied to you?
28:58She didn't mean it.
28:59She thought that the salon could get over this hump
29:01and that everything would be okay.
29:03And it would have been.
29:05Bianca could make anything happen.
29:08Her mum left her a bit of money and she built La Belle de Femme
29:12with her hard work and determination.
29:15I was lucky to be her best friend.
29:21How did you find out the truth?
29:24I saw her give the money to Troy.
29:27What did you do?
29:30I confronted her about it.
29:32She didn't deny it.
29:39When was this?
29:41Three days ago.
29:43You must have felt very betrayed.
29:46Honestly?
29:48No.
29:50I wish she told me about it.
29:52But I knew that we could get through it.
29:58We always have.
29:59I knew that we'd be okay.
30:02That's all for now.
30:06Thanks.
30:08I'll be in touch.
30:11Holland, what have you got?
30:12I'm at the salon.
30:13You need to get down here.
30:18My opinion...
30:19Which I didn't ask for.
30:21You'd think with all the properties he owns he could afford a better car.
30:26I mean, have a look at the bomb.
30:29Oh, that's nice.
30:32Where'd you get that?
30:34From the salon.
30:36Did you nick it?
30:36No, it was a free sample.
30:38From a crime scene.
30:39That's wrong.
30:40Oh, well, there's wrong and then there's wrong, isn't there?
30:43And they're both wrong.
30:46What's he up to?
30:48Oh, don't tell me.
30:49He's going to use that reject stuff for his rentals.
30:52It's not illegal.
30:54Yeah, but it's still dodgy.
30:55That's a hanging offence in my book.
30:58Yeah? And how's your moisturiser going there?
31:00God, you're still going on about that.
31:02Well, when you were our teacher in school, you went on about honesty.
31:05Yeah?
31:06It wasn't there's wrong and there's wrong.
31:08He told us to do the right thing no matter what it cost you.
31:11Yeah, well, I didn't have to worry about it with you, Mr Perfect Behaviour.
31:16Bit of rule breaking would have done you good.
31:19You didn't always behave perfectly.
31:20Oh, I think I'd remember.
31:23You were a beautiful boy.
31:24You always got my special pen, the top work one with the rainbow ink.
31:28I haven't thought about that in years.
31:30Don't know where it got to.
31:32Oh, what's he got now?
31:34Oh, no, mate.
31:35Don't do it.
31:36Oh, I bet your coffee does.
31:38Oh, seriously?
31:41Yeah, you're still defending him?
31:43I'll build the gallows.
31:44That's the way.
31:46When I went through Bianca's payroll records, I found some discrepancies.
31:51Why did Bianca stop paying you?
31:53I don't know what you're talking about.
31:56Last weekly paycheck was the 4th of September.
32:00For the last 11 weeks, not a cracker.
32:06I was an apprentice.
32:07You don't get paid much.
32:08It's about the experience.
32:10So 11 weeks ago, the salon goes cashless.
32:13A week later, your pay stops.
32:15My guess, she caught you with your hand in the till.
32:19It was once 20 bucks for everyone's coffees,
32:24which I had to get and pay for out of my own pocket every day.
32:27So what was the play?
32:28You work for free, and in return, she doesn't tell anybody?
32:31Well, she knew that if my parole officer found out that...
32:34Back inside?
32:38But why didn't you just quit?
32:41Are you serious?
32:43I'm a woman in her 50s, fresh out of prison.
32:46I'm not what you call an easy hire.
32:49And she knew it.
32:50Taking all the credit for giving me a second chance.
32:53Yeah, you must have hated her for it.
32:55Oh, yeah.
32:56Oh, yeah, I did.
32:59But I didn't kill her.
33:07Okay, so here's our state of play.
33:09We've got Tani, we've got Skye, we've got Donna.
33:12They've all got motives.
33:14Bianca took the 42 grand that Tani had earmarked
33:17to put her grandma in a nursing home and spent it on back rent.
33:21I'd be for you, man.
33:22Yeah, well, she says she's not angry, but come on.
33:24All right, so we've got Skye.
33:25She inherits, but salon wasn't worth anything.
33:29She had no way of knowing that.
33:30For all she knew, it was a goldmine.
33:32And Donna was being blackmailed into working for free.
33:35Criminal background, desperate situation.
33:38Okay, so you've got motive, motive, motive, but no opportunity.
33:41Yeah, and then we've got sweaty Troy Lexden
33:43with an opportunity but no motive.
33:46Doesn't make sense.
33:47Let's not forget the missing smoke detector.
33:49Yeah, what's that?
33:51Well, a woman dedicated to every single aspect of her salon
33:55doesn't have...
33:56Wait.
34:00Are you making fun of me?
34:02A little bit, yeah.
34:04You are?
34:04Yeah.
34:07Troy Lexden's dirt bag.
34:09What's he up to now?
34:10Where did he start?
34:12I mean, he threw his chip packet out the car window
34:14and was leering at a couple of girls crossing the road.
34:17Yeah, and he illegally dumped bags of domestic rubbish into a skip
34:21and pinched some old reject building supplies,
34:23which he then used to replace a tenant's windowsill.
34:27Checks out.
34:28I'm all for upcycling like we are a disposable culture.
34:32You break something, toss it out, move on.
34:34But this man was picking through hard waste like he was in a lolly shop.
34:39Reggie, what sort of rubbish?
34:43It was disgusting.
34:44He grabbed the toilet seat and he also grabbed this.
34:46No, no, no, no, no.
34:48What was Troy throwing away?
34:50Oh, I don't know.
34:52Didn't you look?
34:53In the skip?
34:55Yeah.
34:56No.
34:57What?
35:00OK, first thing tomorrow morning.
35:16Is this where you pictured your day going?
35:18Bagged evidence in worse places.
35:19What are we looking for?
35:21Exactly my question.
35:22As Detective Senior Constable Cartwright has helpfully reminded us,
35:26there was a smoke detector in the washroom, but not in the massage room.
35:30Oh, this smoke detector.
35:31It had to go somewhere.
35:33Maybe it was never there in the first place.
35:35Humour me.
35:40Oh, I'm just a volunteer.
35:42You wanted more work to do?
35:43There's a whole disable in here.
35:45Who would throw that out?
35:47It's like $18.
35:48Oh, no, maggots.
35:50Maggots.
35:50Hey, I don't think it's that bad.
35:51It just reminds me of playground duty, picking up rubbish.
36:00Happy anniversary, by the way.
36:04Tomorrow, isn't it?
36:05Yeah, tomorrow.
36:06I'm not sure.
36:07I'm not sure.
36:08I'm not sure.
36:08I'm not sure.
36:09I'm not sure.
36:09I'm not sure.
36:10I'm not sure.
36:10I'm not sure.
36:11I'm not sure.
36:11I'm not sure.
36:12I'm not sure.
36:12I'm not sure.
36:14Yeah.
36:16Five years.
36:20Yep.
36:24You walked out on me, Mark.
36:26Remember?
36:28What did you want me to do?
36:29Go live in a cave?
36:30Join the priesthood?
36:33You never called me.
36:35Of course, I was going to move on.
36:37And yes, I waited a year.
36:38And it was a pretty average year as well, if I'm honest.
36:41And then things happened with Daisy, and I'm glad they did.
36:43I know you are.
36:44She is amazing.
36:44She is the best thing that ever happened to me.
36:46I know she is.
36:47So I didn't tell you that I was going away the exact minute I saw you.
36:49So what?
36:50Mackenzie!
36:50I don't have to tell you everything.
36:51I know.
36:52I don't need you getting stuck into me for it.
36:53I'm not getting stuck in.
36:54Yes, you are.
36:56You can at least admit that.
36:57Excuse me!
37:02I don't believe it.
37:04Why would a landlord as tight as Troy Nexton
37:07rip out a smoke detector and throw it away?
37:11Because of this.
37:12Is that a camera?
37:15Oh, it's a dirty perv.
37:19No, that's not mine.
37:21We saw you throw it in the skip.
37:23No, that was a different one.
37:26You know what?
37:26This is harassment.
37:28I'm actually the victim here.
37:31Sorry, what?
37:32Okay, so what is the sale on clothes?
37:35Nobody's going to want to rent a place where someone's been murdered.
37:39And that's an income stream just vanished.
37:43So we're working on retrieving that footage.
37:45Before we watch it, anything you'd like to tell us?
37:50No.
37:51Okay, you lied about being in the salon.
37:53You found her body, but you didn't tell us.
37:56So fine, yeah, you're a liar.
37:58But you didn't have a motive to kill her.
38:00Exactly.
38:01And then we find out you're illegally filming women in the massage room.
38:04Did Bianca find out?
38:08No.
38:11She had no idea.
38:12Look, I went there to talk to her about the rent.
38:17And after I found Bianca, I panicked and took the smoke detector out.
38:22And threw it in the skip?
38:24Yes.
38:26I mean, she was murdered.
38:34I don't want anyone thinking I'm dodgy.
38:42So we're looking at any movement at the time of death.
38:44Anything that can help us figure out what happened.
38:47The time window's between 12 and 1.
38:58Okay, so nothing happened in this room between 11.59
39:02and when Troy rips the smoke detector out at 12.56.
39:06Let's go back.
39:10Sorry, it's a bit glitchy.
39:11Troy must have damaged something when he threw it out.
39:13Stop, stop, stop.
39:14Stop, stop.
39:14Stop it.
39:14Stop it.
39:15There's the wireless speaker.
39:17Well, this was before the girls left for lunch.
39:20Okay, go forward again.
39:25Move, Felix.
39:29There was a speaker on the shelf and then there wasn't.
39:31What happened?
39:32That part of the footage is wrecked.
39:34I can't get to it.
39:36So someone moved the speaker.
39:40Who and why?
39:44Oh.
39:45Oh my.
39:48How did I miss it?
39:52Speaker.
39:55Tunic.
39:57Killer and the victim.
40:02What about them?
40:08Oh my.
40:13We thought Troy was the only one who had opportunity.
40:16Right.
40:16Because the girls were at lunch.
40:18Right, and Bianca was still alive when they went for lunch.
40:22Exactly.
40:26I'm sorry, I'm a bit lost.
40:30Get everyone to my salon.
40:33Okay.
40:35Including Daisy.
40:38Reggie, come with me.
40:43Daisy?
40:45No.
40:50Why are we here?
40:52We're just waiting for D.I. Clark.
40:54Sorry, Detective Sergeant Clark.
40:56Do you know where...
40:57Um, Detective Sergeant Clark?
41:04Donna, can you join me in the washroom?
41:06Oh, would you mind?
41:28Hello.
41:31Wait, where were you?
41:33Weren't you just in there?
41:34Was I?
41:37Take a seat.
41:38Was I in the washroom or wasn't I in the washroom?
41:42That is what this whole case hinged on.
41:45Three of Bianca's employees, all with motives.
41:49Tani, she did you out of 42 grand.
41:51Skye, you thought you'd inherit everything.
41:53Well, not much.
41:55And Donna, well, she blackmailed you into forced labor.
41:58But how could any of you have done it?
42:00You were all at lunch together when Bianca was being murdered.
42:04Leaving Troy Lexton as the only person with the opportunity to kill her.
42:08But we thought, no motive.
42:10Apart from being a perv.
42:12Well, yeah.
42:13Until we learned he'd hidden a camera in the massage room.
42:17Told you.
42:18But it wasn't Troy.
42:19Well, how do you know that he didn't kill Bianca to discredit her?
42:24Bianca to just cover the whole thing up.
42:25Well, because of your perfume.
42:30When you left for lunch at 12, Bianca was alive.
42:34When you came back at 1, she was dead.
42:37Yes.
42:38Well, that's what you wanted us to think.
42:40Didn't you?
42:42I'm sorry, I'm not really sure.
42:44You killed her.
42:46While Donna was watching Tani preparing Daisy's hair,
42:50you were strangling Bianca in the office.
42:54We saw her alive when we left.
43:01After that, we saw her.
43:02Yes.
43:03Oh, did you?
43:04She was on the phone.
43:06Bianca, lunch.
43:09And that was the intention.
43:11But it was you on the phone, Skye.
43:14With your hair out.
43:15Hair that isn't naturally brown.
43:16But with a little bit of color in it, wearing Bianca's spare yellow tunic,
43:26the family resemblance was enough to convince, just for a moment,
43:30that you were Bianca, because at that moment, Bianca was already dead.
43:35But by establishing her as alive, you created a false window for her murder.
43:40Why would I kill my own sister?
43:43Well, look around you.
43:44This isn't worth anything.
43:46It's what it represents.
43:48Bianca, the golden child who inherited enough money from your mum
43:53to open a salon while you, you got nothing.
43:56You were kicked out of home at 16, disgraced.
43:59Her whole life was taken from you.
44:02She was in the washroom.
44:03I heard her.
44:04Did you?
44:05Or did you hear her voice?
44:07Skye, are we going?
44:10Yeah, two seconds.
44:10I'm nearly done.
44:11That is why the speaker moved from the massage room where it lives to the washroom, Skye.
44:18But Tani saw her in there.
44:20Yeah, Tani.
44:23Oh, Tani.
44:25Tani, whose best friend took 42 grand, money meant to make her a partner in the salon,
44:32and spent it on what?
44:33Rent for a failing business.
44:36Skye alone, she couldn't pull it off.
44:39I mean, she could do the killing.
44:41She could impersonate Bianca, but she needed you, Tani, to sell it.
44:45Skye, are we going?
44:47To make sure Donna saw Bianca alive.
44:50Yeah, two seconds.
44:51I'm nearly done.
44:52And then to distract Donna,
44:56while Skye quickly took off the yellow tunic, leaving her perfume on it.
45:01Quickly ducked out of the office, into the washroom,
45:05and then emerged as if she had been in there all along.
45:13Hey.
45:13While Donna and Tani were admiring the cake.
45:17Red velvet.
45:20Okay, are we off?
45:21Wait, where's Bianca?
45:22Then you both went off to lunch with Donna,
45:26Wait, where's Bianca?
45:27Then you both went off to lunch with Donna,
45:30leaving Bianca alive, hoping we'd assume it was just a random attack.
45:36Whoa, uh, should I, should I be here or?
45:39No, no, it's fine.
45:40Please sit down, Daisy.
45:41Colin called me.
45:51The one thing we couldn't figure out.
45:54The ligature.
45:55It was something strong, obviously.
45:58But the marks on Bianca's neck,
46:00they didn't look like anything caused by a rope or a cord.
46:04The ligature, it somehow spread out the force across Bianca's neck.
46:11It was nothing we'd ever seen before.
46:16But definitely something you'd find in a salon.
46:20Oh, excuse me.
46:25Oh, excuse me.
46:42And what better weapon than one that just walks out the door?
46:45Your hair looks fab.
46:46Oh, thank you.
46:55Sky Bailey.
46:57Tiny chance.
46:58You're both under arrest for the murder of Bianca Bailey.
47:01I must inform you, you do not have to say or do anything.
47:04Anything you say or do will be used as evidence.
47:12Hair extensions is a murder weapon.
47:15It's making me glad I get an edge to do my hair.
47:18Poor old Daisy, though.
47:19Yes, yes.
47:21She did seem a bit shaken up.
47:26Well, good work, everyone.
47:47My top work pen.
47:51You.
47:53Me.
47:54Why?
47:55Aaron dared me to nick it off your desk when you weren't looking.
47:58Oh, God, he was a nasty piece of work, that kid.
48:03I'm sorry.
48:05And you kept it for all these years.
48:08Since year seven.
48:10I plan to give it back, I promise.
48:12But I just never got the chance.
48:15I finished high school and now we're here, you know, doing the right thing, eventually.
48:22It still counts.
48:25Thanks, Miss Rocker.
48:31Hey, Felix.
48:33Yeah?
48:34Might make a decent copper out of you yet.
48:37I already am a decent copper.
48:39Oh, yeah.
48:49Hey, Madge.
48:50Yeah, it's getting pretty scruffy.
48:52Yeah, can I book myself in for a trim?
48:55Yeah.
48:56Can you just give us just a minute?
49:06About the contract.
49:07Ah, all sorted.
49:10What?
49:10Well, I explained the situation to HR and I bought you some more time.
49:17I thought you said they were inflexible.
49:18Yes.
49:19Yes, it was a fairly enraging conversation, but we got there in the end.
49:25Huh.
49:27So you don't want me here permanently?
49:30Can I call you back?
49:32Okay.
49:34Mackenzie, it doesn't matter what I want.
49:38The only thing that matters is what you want.
49:42We've all seen what happens when you get pushed into a decision you don't like.
49:46Dogs get abandoned.
49:48My precious son gets left at the altar.
49:50Yep, okay, you made your point.
49:53Yeah, yeah, but look...
49:55Whatever happens with this inquiry in London, I do want you to know that...
49:59that, um, I can use you here at Dolphin Cove, but only if you want to stay.
50:07Well...
50:13Good.
50:17Thanks.
50:25Sorry, I got held up.
50:37Oh, it's fine.
50:37We're early.
50:41Hi, Daisy.
50:42Sorry about the murder weapon on my head.
50:44Yeah, it was a bit of a mood killer.
50:47I maybe should have warned you in advance.
50:49You think?
50:51Look, I know you see murder every day, but it freaks normal people out.
50:55Understood.
50:57Okay, good.
51:00Well, you guys sort Frankie out.
51:01I'll wait in the car.
51:16Um, if you don't want to come over Sunday night, it's fine.
51:19She can stay.
51:22She doesn't need all that stuff.
51:23She was fine last time.
51:25I've brought her down.
51:32Have a good weekend.
51:35Cheers.
51:41I'm sorry.
51:44Oh, don't stress.
51:47Daisy will be okay.
51:47It's...
51:48About you.
51:51I am sorry for what I did to you.
51:54Back.
51:57No, please let me talk.
52:00Um...
52:05It was awful and cruel.
52:10And it wasn't fair on you.
52:12Yeah, it, um...
52:15It wasn't ideal.
52:20I put you through a horrible time and it wasn't right.
52:25And I never said I'm sorry.
52:26So I am saying it now.
52:28So, um, we can draw a line underneath it and then I can go home with a clear conscience.
52:35The inquiry will clear me.
52:38That'll be it.
52:42Yeah, well, whatever that happens, you're in the clear with me.
52:48Get on it, Glennie!
52:56Off you go then.
52:59Watch out for wombats.
53:01You know, it's actually very unusual for them to attack.
53:05I've heard it.
53:05I've still got the scar.
53:08See ya.
53:11You're good, Frankie.
53:12I'll see you later.
53:13Bye.
53:17Frankie?
53:47And yeah, you're the only one I'd stay here for, Frankie.
54:11Oh, it's beautiful, isn't it?
54:18To live another day, we must defend and disobey.
54:37Victim found while staging a protest.
54:39Everyone secure?
54:40Secure.
54:41How do you murder someone when you're chained up and you can't move?
54:45Please stay back.
54:46I was hoping you could get my engagement ring back.
54:50Oh.
54:52You really think that one of us would do that?
54:54We're a family.
54:55Stop!
54:56She's on the run.
54:58People running away from something doesn't mean it's over.
