(murmuring, chuckling) We were playing a game of Murder in the Dark.

♪ ♪ (sighing): Oh, good, you're here.

You trying to throw me under the bus to shift the blame?

There are scratches on the floorboards.

♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ (thunder claps) (whimpers) (click) ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ (gasps) Stay back!

Listen, um, is it strange that we're both here, you know, at the, at the same time?

Brendan, we're in the middle of a murder investigation.

Yeah, I know, but it's just that cops talk.

(police radios running) JASON: Hello, hello, hello-- who's this, then?

BECKS (in distance): Don't come any closer!

Believe me, they know we're up here.

Even if you're telling the truth, this is all still highly illegal.

TANIKA: She's absolutely right-- it's against the law to record guests in a privately rented accommodation.

(grumbling) Tanika, our ghost has been found.

HECTOR (sighs): Look, this camera's on Ulrich, the bear.

This, on the armor, the French cabinet was a wedding present, and that painting's an original.

I was led to believe you were somewhere in the Highlands, sipping whiskey.

I was going to speak to you later, obviously.

I can't believe you've been sat up here the whole time, watching us.

(sighs) A few months ago, some drunken louts smashed my medal cabinet.

Bly, you're aware there's a murder investigation going on inside your house that you're now a viable suspect for?

Look, if I was going to murder a guest, which I wouldn't, I've had a lot worse groups than this one, believe you me!

We're going to need the files from last night.

(grunts) But I'll still need you to come to the station, answer some questions.

HECTOR: I must say, this is a complete affront.

(sighs) And I shall be sending you a bill for that attic door you both busted.

Trust you lot to be so heavy-handed.

If the door hadn't mysteriously locked itself, Mr.

Bly, we wouldn't have had to break it.

(scoffs) Why would you rent your house out if you don't want guests?

This place has been in my family for 300 years.

You think I want to be the one who has to sell it?

This should have all the footage from yesterday, until a few minutes ago.

Have you, by any chance, seen a copy of this book in the last day?

Never seen that book before in my life.

You want me to sit in the back, like a criminal?

Well, it would be a bit cozy if you joined us up the front, wouldn't it?

(clears throat) (Hector coughs) It could be worse.

I don't know why they have to do this.

(car doors close) It's always such a performance.

(engine starts) A complete waste of taxpayers' money.

Absolute... (engine revving) ♪ ♪ I've already told DC Hackett, my lawyer won't be able to get here until the morning.

TANIKA: We're more than happy to wait.

JESSICA: Right, well, I'll see you then.

Um, well, I was just going to say that, you know, it could get messy, mixing personal with professional.

Especially since you were having an affair with the victim.

How on earth do you jump to that conclusion?

TANIKA: You requested a receipt for a hotel room booked under Freddie's name on the night of the reunion-- and you told us that you didn't see him that evening.

I wasn't having an affair with Freddie.

JUDITH: So, how do you explain the receipt?

I'm not denying I asked for it, but... SUZIE Oh!

They don't want to be seen by anyone or caught.

You might not have been having an affair with Freddie, but you knew that he was having an affair.

JUDITH: And why would you ask for the receipt, unless it was useful to you for another reason?

(sighs) Things have been rough at work.

There was a partner position opening up.

It's competitive, so I had to bring something big to the table.

What does that have to do with Freddie?

His wife's company developed a hybrid solar generator system.

It's amazing for the environment, and it would have brought in a ton of money.

I saw him with that woman at the hotel, by accident, and it was like it just fell into my lap.

JESSICA: After a little push, Freddie agreed to help.

But the contracts weren't signed yet.

I mean, why would I do him any harm before the deal was done?

I need you all to grow up and start cooperating.

(staircase creaks) That means you, as well!

(sighs) JESSICA: Look, there is something else you should know.

The woman, the one Freddie was having an affair with, her name's Sasha Hill.

JUDITH: Hill, as in... Ryan's ex-wife.

Don't think it went unnoticed that you and Becks found that room together.

When Becks specifically wasn't supposed to be investigating.

It was entirely my fault, I assure you.

Becks has already been seen to withhold information.

If the CPS heard about her involvement, it could jeopardize a conviction down the line and mean no more investigating for you.

But it so easily could, if you carry on as you have been.

I've managed to track down Sasha Hill.

She's in Singapore for work, been there the last week.

Right, well, let's see what Ryan has to say.

You will not believe who I bumped into at speed dating.

Did Freddie ever talk to you about his marriage?

(chuckling): I mean, he wouldn't shut up about the new job.

(breathes deeply) They were taking her to Disneyland in the summer.

Sorry, it's all just a bit... I can't get my head around it.

BRENDAN: Well, new evidence suggests that Freddie was having an affair in the months before his death.

Ryan, the woman he was having an affair with was Sasha Hill.

Your friend was having an affair with your ex-wife, and you knew nothing about it?

Sasha and I married at 23, but we were divorced by 27.

I haven't even spoken to her in about a decade.

(sighs) It all got a bit messy when she came for a piece of my foundation.

We heard you and Freddie were rivals.

We competed over everything at uni.

(laughs) But that was all a very long time ago.

And you don't think Freddie was trying to provoke a reaction?

I think you know enough about Freddie by now to know that if he wanted a reaction, he'd have been pretty vocal about him and Sasha.

♪ ♪ I believe him-- I don't think he knew about the affair.

Every lead, it's all a bloody dead end with this lot.

TANIKA: Let's hope Hector Bly's camera footage sheds some light.

♪ ♪ (birds chirping) I can't believe it.

I knew I heard footsteps upstairs, but the idea that he was there the whole time's... (footsteps approaching) There are some croissants here, if you want one.

Una wasn't trying to throw you under the bus.

Plus, I'm the one who passed that information on.

I know it'll make me look guilty, but I already do.

Everyone seems really keen on that.

Of course, you should tell the police.

Freddie and Sasha-- how could you keep that quiet?

Knowing that you and Freddie have this little secret behind my back?

I'd say we're all feeling a little betrayed here.

Get in line-- your ego's the least of our worries.

How did you skate under the police radar?

What, one quick chat and they're not interested in you?

JESSICA: And eavesdropping on conversations that don't concern you.

You seem really interested in what's happening to us.

You're not as perfect as you think you are.

♪ ♪ (sighs) I'm going to call home.

And we think we can pinpoint the moment of Freddie's death.

Una is in the frame at 21:21 and 34 seconds.

(key taps, computer chirps) That's where she hears Freddie shout.

It also means Una's alibi checks out, so that's a good start.

There's a camera in the entrance hall, pointing at the bear.

(mouse clicks) Becks passes it seconds before the shout, and immediately afterwards, her and Jessica enter frame and head towards the stairs.

(key taps, computer chirps) BRENDAN: So, that leaves Ryan and Oskar-- anything?

(key taps, computer chirps) TANIKA: 21:21 and 34 seconds.

You might stop enjoying this so much now.

(mouse clicking) (key taps, computer chirps) JASON: 21:21 and 34.

Yep, they were all on camera at the time of death, or immediately afterwards.

Well, there's a camera blind spot around his secret room, but we did a sweep of his computer to check his alibi, and he was playing internet chess at the time.

Every move is recorded on the server.

He didn't have time to leave his desk during the match.

So, if it wasn't any of our houseguests, and it wasn't Hector Bly, then who killed Freddie?

You know where we were and what happened.

OSKAR: And you said we're on camera, so it can't be one of us.

TANIKA: Our problem lies in the fact that two of you saw another person outside the library.

JESSICA: But if the evidence suggests there wasn't, then surely that's the most likely option.

It was dark-- I don't think they know what they saw.

There was definitely someone there.

You find a secret room, with someone hiding back there, watching us, and you're questioning us?

Bly has an alibi covering that period of time.

Just because I'm not getting angry doesn't mean I don't want to get out of here as much as you do.

JESSICA: No, you're loving the gossip too much!

TANIKA: In case you've forgotten, you're all part of a murder investigation.

OSKAR: We've told you everything we know.

There's even camera footage proving that none of us killed Freddie.

TANIKA: We're trying to get to the bottom of this as quickly as we possibly can, and for that to happen, we really need you to stay here.

You were due to check out in two hours anyway.

Stay until then and then leave as planned.

(house door opens) UNA: Who's that?

You've got a nerve coming back here.

This is my house-- where else would I go?

(doorbell rings) Oh, come in, it's open.

A little example of the personal service you can expect.

Yeah, I've always been good at word searches, me.

But those cryptic crosswords, clues and that, never made any sense.

Oh, it's just a matter of practice.

Some of it's as simple as words with multiple meanings.

For example, you might write "shark."

Now, you could mean the titular star of the film "Jaws" or you could mean someone who purposefully exploits and swindles people.

Well, you hide smaller words in larger words or phrases.

♪ ♪ You know, thank you so much for your quote, but I'm afraid I have to go.

(stammering) If I could just have a minute, we could just... No, no, there's somewhere I need to be really quite urgently.

You've been extremely helpful, but I'm afraid I won't require your services.

Sure, yeah, but... But I will leave you an excellent review.

Yeah... (scoffs) Right, yeah, sure-- I mean, what's the problem?

TANIKA: We aren't going to be able to stall them any longer, and we don't have the evidence to detain them.

Once they scatter back across the country, it's going to make everything harder.

Just because she wasn't having an affair with Freddie doesn't mean she didn't kill him.

And I'm still aware that Una lied and has been keeping a very low profile.

Ryan has a viable motive and Oskar threatened the victim.

I need you to double-check everything we've got so far, and any time someone from that house appears on one of Hector's cameras, I want it logged.

As far as I'm concerned, any of them could still be responsible.

If you're going to ask me to stay longer, I won't.

I've already said way too much without a lawyer.

I just wanted to check in about what you said about the partnership-- the deal.

It's not easy to just announce something like that.

Freddie had a new job, Ryan's buzzing about his book, you're solving murders.

I couldn't be the only one saying, "Things are a bit awful, actually."

I haven't been as good at keeping in touch as I should.

I'm not always the easiest to keep in touch with.

Look, I tried to convince myself I was justified because Freddie was having an affair, but it never felt right.

Do you really think they can get to the bottom of this?

We need to find Hector as soon as possible.

I think I know what happened to the books.

He did not seem interested in answering any more questions.

I don't think I fancy having a chat with him.

What about our woman on the inside?

We just need to give Becks a nudge in the right direction.

(whispers): She's got to be here somewhere.

♪ ♪ (sighs) (door opens) (whispering): Let's try upstairs.

You're going to get me in trouble with Tanika.

We need to ask Hector a question, and we thought it might be best coming from you.

But he's... (groans) Becks, if you help us with this, we'll tell you all about Suzie's date with Brendan.

(ducks quacking) Keep off the grass!

Didn't you even read the house rules?

You're here to accuse me of murder again?

No, it's just, you have a really beautiful home.

I didn't have a chance to say before.

I was walking around there earlier, and thought, "You know what I fancy?

I don't suppose you have a copy of "Dracula," do you?

You think my house is like Dracula's castle?

I just love that story, and thought I'd pass the time.

Better than burying my head in my phone.

People are too reliant on technology these days.

It's in the library, far left shelf, high up.

Suzie, so, you just talked about the case?

There wasn't time for anything else.

You know, you really sold this as a more exciting story.

Well, it got you to talk to Hector, didn't it?

Freddie needed a book that was bigger than Ryan's and a title he could easily remember.

For a man who did his PhD in gothic literature, "Dracula" would have been an obvious choice.

He ripped out the pages and used it to hide Ryan's book.

Because I think this book is important, and he needed to keep it safe.

Another nice message from Ryan, exactly like the others.

Wait, wait, there's something tucked inside.

It's the front cover of a dissertation.

Oh, this is the essay that got Oskar thrown out of uni.

JUDITH: And brought it with him to taunt Oskar.

But shoving this in Oskar's face... (exhales) That could have pushed him over the edge.

♪ ♪ We found Freddie's copy of Ryan's book.

JUDITH: It'd been hidden quite strategically.

Freddie brought it back to taunt you about your failure.

That's why you killed him, isn't it?

You didn't mind Freddie's outburst about the muddy trousers, but having him mock you about the worst moment in your life?

You killed him and went to great lengths to hide the evidence.

JUDITH: It doesn't look good, does it?

It's evidence that links you directly to the murder victim, and it gives you a motive.

BECKS: Oskar, please, just tell us the truth.

This is the first time I've seen it, honestly.

Even if Freddie was going to show me, he didn't have a chance before he died.

Why would he bother hiding it if he didn't know you had it?

I'm not going to get blamed for something I didn't do again.

Not when everyone else is waltzing around, behaving terribly.

Ryan playing the nice guy, pretending he doesn't care that Freddie's sleeping with Sasha.

He didn't even write the dedication.

Big shot didn't have time, apparently.

And Una, pestering us all to come here and then throwing around the blame behind everyone's back?

(stammers) I don't even know these people anymore.

JUDITH: What happened to get you expelled from university?

They found evidence of plagiarism in the essay, and matched the signature on this cover sheet to the one on my passport, and in their minds, I was instantly guilty.

OSKAR: I tried, but when I went to find the original essay on my laptop, the entire folder was gone.

I don't know if someone deleted it or if it was just a computer error, but... (inhales) There was no trace at all.

I swear I'd never seen the plagiarized version before.

We will have to tell the police about this.

♪ ♪ It's all happening again, isn't it?

No one believed me then, and now no one will believe I didn't kill Freddie.

We're assuming Freddie hid a single piece of paper, yes?

So, why did he go to such lengths to hide it?

He could have slipped this bit of paper into any book on that shelf, and it would have taken us days, maybe even weeks, to find it.

Well, it suggests they're only incriminating if they're together.

If what Oskar said was true, then the writing in the book is his, not Ryan's.

So, why doesn't it match the handwriting on the back of the cover sheet?

I think someone forged this cover sheet to make it look like Oskar had written the plagiarized essay.

What if Freddie did it, Oskar found out, and wanted revenge?

But we need to work out whose handwriting this is.

How are we going to get handwriting samples from a group of people who are already on high alert?

Well, if it's one of our suspects, this could point us towards the killer.

But is it enough to implicate them?

Well, I know you're busy logging Hector's footage.

But I wondered if you could kindly take me through some of it.

Sure thing, but all our suspects are accounted for.

SUZIE (scoffs): Yeah, except this person.

And if it wasn't Hector, who was it?

JUDITH: Well, that's exactly what we're here to try and work out.

JASON: They were mostly in the kitchen and sitting room.

(candy crunching) (mouse clicking) This is when they leave for lunch.

(key taps, mouse clicks) And then... SUZIE: Stop!

(key taps, computer chirps) Who's that?

That's before the guests came back for dinner.

He got back early to do the treasure hunt.

Got excited, thought I'd found something.

(chuckles) Could you take us forward to the moment Freddie died?

(mouse clicking, keys tapping) Here we go.

(key taps) (computer chirping, key tapping) Una.

(key taps, computer chirps) I think this might be the quietest you two have ever been.

We need to have clearer conversations when this happens.

Could you play that one more time for me, please?

They're all turning towards the noise.

In their witness statements, they all say they heard the shout.

Now, if the shout came from the library, Oskar would have looked down and left.

But on the footage, he instinctively looks down and right.

SUZIE: Well, we'd better get our skates on.

Becks said everyone's getting ready to leave.

(engine starts) (siren blaring) ♪ ♪ (tires screeching) JUDITH: Suzie, are you sure this is the right way?

We're heading to the same station, so it just makes sense to go, too.

(trunk closes) JESSICA: Call me if you need anything.

(car doors close and open) ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ (car bumps) (grunts) SUZIE: Made it.

OSKAR: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, careful!

You need to come back to the house.

If you're still suggesting I'm responsible, I... We're not, don't worry.

JUDITH: The university may have matched your signature, but no one considered that the most insignificant writing on the document could be the most revealing.

(siren blaring, car approaching) (siren and engine stop) Yeah, I'll have that.

(police radios running) TANIKA: How did you get here this quickly?

(laughs) You are very lucky that the speed camera on Winter Hill is out of action.

(laughs) Is everyone else still in the house?

(house door opens) You see, people are surprising.

All weekend, we've been hearing about Freddie's faults, but you were still friends with him.

We were thinking about what Freddie did wrong that could have provoked his murderer.

What we didn't consider is that Freddie died because he did something right.

TANIKA: Last chance for a confession.

You can't still think that one of us did it?

Uh, would you like to continue, or shall I?

He's also responsible for Oskar's expulsion from university.

(Ryan scoffs) Are you really suggesting I ruined one friend's life and, and then killed another?

I didn't know about Freddie and Sasha, and why would I frame Oskar?

I don't think you intended to frame Oskar, not originally.

Becks told us how you struggled at university.

In the foreword to your book, you say yourself, it was the toughest time of your life.

(scoffs) How you were suddenly a little fish in a big pond.

SUZIE: When you got to your dissertation, you panicked, and you plagiarized material to get it finished.

(Ryan scoffs) But when it came to actually handing it in, you knew you wouldn't get away with it, so you put your cover sheet on Oskar's essay, forged another, signed supposedly by Oskar, and put that on the plagiarized essay.

It wasn't about framing Oskar, it was about self-preservation.

You knew you'd have to submit something to finish the course, and you couldn't bear the thought of failing.

Faking the signature of someone you knew so well can't have been hard.

You even deleted the essay from his computer.

He didn't notice the handwriting on the back of the cover sheet that would have exposed you.

All these years, you knew what you did, and you said nothing?

RYAN: I didn't... Oskar, I'm sorry.

But this has nothing to do with Freddie's death.

JUDITH: Freddie must've been digging around in all your records, presumably looking for something funny to bring back to the reunion: dirt, gossip.

But what he found was the dissertation in Oskar's records.

SUZIE: He brought it back and confronted you, didn't he?

JUDITH: Did he give you an ultimatum?

We've all heard that you were both rivals.

You know the unexpected bonus about my new job?

There's not a shred of evidence for any of this.

You said that you grew out of the rivalry, and I believe you might have, but I don't think Freddie did.

That's why he was sleeping with your ex-wife.

He wasn't going to stand by with the knowledge that you had cheated, framed Oskar, and lied about it.

And it must have been a nice added bonus that he'd get to destroy his old rival's reputation, while restoring Oskar's.

FREDDIE: That's your handwriting on the back, isn't it?

You swapped Oskar's dissertation for yours.

Looks like you've got an apology to make.

You can't prove anything with that.

I think Oskar would give it a good shot, too.

Do you think he's going to be happy knowing the real reason he ended up as your lackey?

If you don't say something by the time we leave, I will.

♪ ♪ I'm on camera at the time of the murder.

We went back over that footage a million times, and Judith found something we had all missed.

You told us yourself you had extra access to the house that day.

On the recordings, you move from room to room, all perfectly innocent.

JUDITH: You spend just over a minute planting a clue in each room except for here, where you spend nearly six minutes in the camera blind spot, right by Hector's secret door.

Why would you spend so much time in this small space unless you'd found something?

(laughing): How did I supposedly find his hideout?

Because he wasn't there the whole time.

I reckon you didn't have much of a plan until then.

And with only six of you in the house, you knew that hurting Freddie would be too risky, because the police would know it was one of you, and you couldn't let the news about the dissertation get out, because that would ruin everything that you'd built up.

Your charitable foundation, your... Well, your reputation as an honorable man.

Knowing about the cameras, it gave you the ingredients for the perfect alibi.

You even planted the idea that there was another person in the house first.

OSKAR: But I saw that person-- there was someone there.

You saw Ryan and Ryan saw you, and he knew that if he corroborated what you'd seen, then you'd both look innocent.

♪ ♪ A shared witness statement and the suggestion of another person in the house who could have carried out the murder, something that ultimately led us to Hector.

♪ ♪ SUZIE: When you walked into the library and saw Freddie... 13... SUZIE: ...you spotted the knife... ...14, 15... SUZIE: ...you took it... ...16, 17... SUZIE: ...and you killed him.

(knife stabs, Freddie grunts) (gasping) RYAN: Very entertaining, but you're forgetting that I was on camera when everyone heard the shout.

We'd always assumed that it was Freddie who shouted, but, in reality, it could be any man's voice.

Which explains why Oskar looks the wrong way when he hears the sound on the CCTV.

Because the shout didn't come from the library.

JUDITH: You knew exactly where the camera pointed.

And, with your back to it, you shouted.

(shouts) JUDITH: Then you turned to the supposed source of the noise, knowing everyone else would, too.

TANIKA: It's quite an impressive sleight of hand, but the only thing you didn't find was the dissertation cover.

I'm guessing you searched the house when you set the treasure hunt, but you had no idea Freddie would've hidden it so well.

JUDITH: Freddie knew you'd be after the evidence.

He anticipated that you'd try and steal the dissertation cover back.

That's why he went to such great pains to hide it, paired with a sample of Oskar's real handwriting.

He didn't realize how far you'd go to silence him.

(house door opens) COLIN (in distance): I'm here!

(room door opens) I'm sorry I took longer than expected, but I've got it.

It was at the bottom of the ottoman.

Suzie, have you got the dissertation?

You could even officially install cameras that way, too.

Well, something to think about, but the public, uh, not sure how I feel about that-- more people.

Well, you're lucky that none of this lot want to press charges.

I still think the courts would side with me.

This case has got me thinking, and it seems I could do with a bit of help.

And I'd much rather ask my friends than a stranger.

Might you and your team be free this evening?

(exhales) I can't... I don't know what to say.

I think it's going to be a while before any of us know what to say.

I know it's not exactly like we're close anymore, but we've been through so much.

I really don't want to lose contact.

You're always welcome at the vicarage.

(footsteps approaching) We haven't been the best at keeping in touch, but let's at least make the effort.

UNA: So, what's next, now that you can properly contest the plagiarism?

I guess I can finally appeal the university.

There's a lot of paperwork in my future.

I know exactly the person you should call.

You'll have your degree within a week and an apology-- make that a public apology.
