My Life Is Murder (2019–…): Season 2, Episode 4 - Look Don't Touch - full transcript

Yuck.

Oh my goodness. What a hoot.

Ooh. Mummy loves you.

Hey, hello.

Excuse me. Your baby is...

Oh, really hairy.

- Thanks. This is Noah.
- In his pram.

He has a heart condition.

Oh, maybe he should be home in bed,

where he can crap in your backyard
instead of on the path out there.

Are you Australian?



I'm from here, actually.

And a cat person, I'm guessing.

I've got a case I think
you might be interested in.

Daniel Woodward... historian,

owner and a main presenter of a visiting
costume exhibition

at Auckland Museum.

The show was packing them in.
He developed it with his partner,

Stella Moore.

- Partner?
- In business and in life.

Oh, I think you mean deluded optimists.

Yeah, you could say that.

She dumped him a week
after the exhibition opened.

They kept working together at the
museum until Tuesday two weeks ago.

Just after dawn on the 10th,



Daniel's body was pulled from
the water just south of Motutapu.

No water in the lungs. He died from
blunt force trauma to the skull.

Caused by...?

The coroner brought down
an open finding.

Stella received an SMS from Daniel,
sent at 10.15 the Monday night...

'I'm sorry, Stella.
Nothing works any more.'

She left her phone at the museum,
so didn't see till the next day.

A farewell note sent by text?

Yeah, well,
guys his age don't carry pens.

Did he include any emojis?

We found the phone.

By the cliff at Achilles Point,
not far from Daniel's car.

Wait a minute. His body
was found way east of the cliffs.

Five hours of ebbtide.

Hm.

Did you track his movements that night?

After he left work,

he bought a burger and a
bottle of Italian bubbly in Parnell.

He walked around a bit, then
travelled east towards Achilles Point

until he turned his phone off
around about 8.

Well, what about at the museum that day?

The museum managed to misplace
a month's worth of CCTV hard drives.

Awkward.

Inconvenient.

So, what are these markings on his hand?

I dunno. Pen doodles?

Oh, let's not call them that.

So, what do you think?

Did he fall or was he pushed?

It's Daniel's phone that bugs me
the most...

wasn't a fingerprint on it.

Now, who wipes their phone
after sending a text?

Well, I wipe my phone.
I wanna keep it shiny.

What?!

Even if you were teetering
on the edge of a cliff?

Well, probably.

I don't know. It's a habit.

Yeah, like putting away the
teacups face up instead ofdown.

Yeah, or you pretending to listen to me

when you're not really listening at all.

- Squiggles.
- Now, that was deliberate.

What do you want me to do with this?

Just do, you know,
your image searchy thingy?

You want me to pattern match
this with everything on the planet?!

Yeah. Sounds good. Do it.

Well, we're gonna need better internet.

At our place, I mean.

Oh, gosh. From the outside,
she's hardly changed a bit.

Captions by Kristin Williams.

Kia or a. Nau mai, haere mai,
ki te whare pupuri taonga

o Tamaki Makaurau. I'm your guide...

Oh, it's all new.

You know, they used to be
a family of kiwi over here.

Why do they have to move things?

When were you last here, exactly?

1982.

OK, yeah, they've also got
the electricity on now.

Um, Sonny, hi.

Can you point us to
the Legendary Thread's Exhibition?

Yeah. Level 1, ladies.
Tickets are just back there.

Oh, we're actually here
on a police matter.

The guy from the threads exhibition.

Daniel Woodward. You knew him?

Uh... Yeah. I mean, enough to say hi.

He was a nice guy.

Look, um... Head on up without
tickets. Tell them, Sonny sent ya.

Wow! These are amazing!

You keep doing that tourist thing,
all right?

Oh, I will.

Stella?

My name is Alexa Crowe. I'm helping
the police with their enquiries.

I'm just trying to get past it,
you know?

No, I do not, actually.

I'm sorry about Daniel.

Thanks.

So... what can you tell me?

Yes, he was still depressed
about our break-up.

Yes, we'd had an argument that day...
again.

- Do you like Italian bubbly?
- Sorry? No.

It's just Daniel bought
a bottle of Prosecco,

and I wondered maybe he was planning
to come over,

you know, patch things up.

He didn't, and I had called him
after the argument before I left work.

Five times,
according to your phone records.

He never answered.

What was your argument about?

Something stupid... our dog, I think.

Well, it must have been hard

for
you to keep working together so closely.

We met at art school.
We'd been together five years.

We built all of this from scratch.

Why did you end it?

This was supposed to be
our exhibition, our business.

It took me a while to realise
it was really only his.

- And you were home that night?
- Yeah, I was watching an old movie.

- Really? Which one?
- North by Northwest.

Oh, I love that one.

You know that scene where Cary
Grant finally meets George Kaplan?

Yeah, I know. It's wild.

Sorry. I have to...

Stella...

Now? Really?

Do you know what this pattern means?

I've been through all this.

He was
always using his hand as a Post-it note.

11 o'clock tour!
We are amazing by the battle armour.

They have George Harrison's kaftan,
and it is awesome.

Hare krishna.

My absolute favourite was
Centennial Street was right here.

It was all set up with shops
from Auckland in the 1860s.

Oh, candle maker, leech applier.

I loved it.

Ooh.

Something else they
changed to annoy you?

No, this was always here.

I used to stare at these masks and
imagine myself at a ball inVenice.

I remember it perfectly.

Sonny...

We're looking for Lillian Reid.

I'll show you...
all part of the service.

Now, we have had the CCTV hard drive
stolen before.

They're worth quite a lot.

Who had access?

Well, only the other members
of the Security Committee,

all curators.

We keep them locked in
the basement. Would you like to see?

Oh, maybe later.

Aah.

You've been to Legendary Threads, I see.

Mm, there's a whole section on corsets.

Now, I don't know if
they're a tool for the patriarchy

- or female empowerment.
- Exactly.

Still, now you're thinking about
corsets,

so that's a winner.

I'm glad you're looking
into Daniel's death.

Yeah, evidently you were the last
one who spoke to him before he died.

Oh.

Well, we did have a meeting.

At 5.30.

Administration things.

How long have you been a curator here?

Oh, about 10 years.

I'm taking up a position
in New York in a week.

Ooh, very cool. Congrats.

- Thank you.
- Mm.

Does this mean anything to you?

Um...

Is that Daniel's hand?

Legendary Threads was your project.

No. No, Daniel brought it to me.

I championed it.

- So, you saw quite a lot of him?
- I did, yeah.

I wish I had seen more.

Been a better friend.

You know, maybe then...

I'm sorry.

He was very upset...

and worried about working
with Stella long term.

- You do know that they...
- Oh, we heard.

Right.

I wanted to extend the show.

'I can't go on, ' he said.

I thought that he meant...

God, I feel so stupid.

Did he tell you where
he was going that night?

No. If I had have known
what he was thinking,

then I could have kept him here
or called Stella.

Something.

It's such a loss.

He did seem to have a lot going for him.

Oh, he had an encyclopaedic knowledge in
his field...

a wonderful eye for detail.

Stella seems to have picked up
the baton nicely, though.

Daniel was a showman.

Stella's doing quite a good job, but...

No, she's...

She's not Daniel.

Abraham Lincoln, with his boots on and
his stovepipe hat,

he's pushing 7ft tall.

I mean, he could go head-to-head with
Shaquille O'Neal.

His height... what was his brand.

And I mean, we still recognise
that hat 160 years later.

This was taken from a visitor's phone

the afternoon of the day he died.
He doesn't look too broken-hearted.

No, he doesn't.

But then, he was a performer.

So is Stella.

The phone was found over there.

Right.

You know, if you went over here,

what
are the odds if you fell into water...

I've read articles on survival rates for
falls.

If you hit your head, you're dead.

I don't even like the look
of paddling down there.

Oh, you might be interested to know
this is the nudy beach down there.

Oh, my God.

- There's a guy down there.
- I know.

I've been running in that image search

for the marks on the dead guy's hands...

very wide parameters.

One hit... a rock formation 30 miles
from Boise, Idaho,

but I'm thinking no.

Can you pull up the tide
charts for the night that Daniel died?

I wanna know specifically
the speed of an ebb tide.

Sure.

Are you
gonna light a candle every single night?

My family gives candles at birthdays.
What are you, a candle hater?

Lemon fragrance, orange,
pine... it smells like toilet spray.

Oh, why to kill the mood.

See.

And here we go. High tide... 9.40pm.

The flood tide was running at 1.4 knots.

But that's in the middle of the
channel where the water's deepest.

What about in the shallow?
It should be going slower.

0.4 knots near the south shore.

That's why the kayaker
was paddling close.

It's easier when you're
going against the current.

But if Daniel's body
was found near the island...

- What time was his body found?
- About 6am.

So he can't possibly have died
on the rocks at Achilles Point.

There wouldn't have been time
for the body to float that far.

He must've gone into the water in
the main channel

or much further east.

So who left his phone on the cliff?

I'm guessing the same person
that drove the car there.

And who sent the text to Stella's phone,

and probably the person who killed him.

Here you go, Reuben.

You know I would've brought this to you.

No worries. It was on my way.

- OK, I want that bag back, all right?
- Course.

Hey, Reuben...

Would you ever drink Prosecco
with a hamburger?

Only if I knew the burger was
gonna be terrible... to dull the pain.

- Is that an Aussie thing?
- What?

No. How should I know?!

- Oh, your sourdough...
- Did somebody complain?

No, relax.

Customers are wanting to
buy whole loaves to take home.

You should think about making more.

- What am I... a machine?
- A very nice machine.

God.

You know, I'm suspicious of
people who lay it with a trowel.

I'm not.

I quite like it, in case that's useful.

Might be.

Ooh. He should come by more often.

Oh, easy, Tiger.

OK, here's a question...

why would Stella kill Daniel if
she'd already ended the relationship?

Maybe she wanted the limelight.

Or maybe being with someone who drives
you crazy all the time

just got too much.

Oh, I'm sure that could never happen.

What about Stella's alibi?

Now that...

...she was lying about?

- Oh, you're back again.
- Oh.

How's it all going?
Can I help you with anything?

Oh, no. I'm good.
But what's going on here?

Ah, it's routine stuff.

The curators, they pull some
of the pieces from the collection

for cleaning and checks.

- It's a regular thing.
- Exciting stuff.

Uh, well, the actual real exciting stuff

is talking to beautiful people.

Oh.

- And who guards the CCTV hard drives?
- Aah. You heard about that.

It's a bit embarrassing.

Did you let anybody into the space

where they're stored in the last month,

like someone from
the costume exhibition?

No way. I don't have a key.

Only management gets in the IT room.
Oh, usually.

Thank you.

That security guy is gonna
ask for my number. You watch.

Mm-hm.

There you are.

- A little gift from the shop.
- Ooh.

I'm betting you're
a fan of Kate Sheppard.

She plays netball, right?

- 19th century suffragette... famous.
- Ooh.

Gorgeous. Thank you.

New Zealand women were the first in the
world to win the vote,

thanks to Kate.

I bet she would've
made a great goal attack.

And I have something for you.

I've been thinking about
the marks on Daniel's hand.

Collar is called a 'ruff'...
early 16th to mid-17th century.

Ooh, and I thought
padded shoulders look stupid.

It was worn as a status symbol
by gentlemen of means.

Because who could possibly do
manual labour in such a thing?

- Like stilettos, then?
- Pretty much.

But I'm not seeing it.

But see... the curve at the top.

Then the lines down here
are the folds of the material.

I mean...

But why would he copy this on his hand?

Daniel was a very precise man.
Perhaps he was designing a better one.

Obsessing over tiny details.

Because of a broken heart?

Maybe.

Hello again.

I've been watching some
footage of Daniel working.

He was really exciting to watch.

Yeah, he's a hard act to follow.

Stella, I've gotta ask...

do you know of
anybody who would've wanted to harm him?

No. What do you mean?

I just think somebody else was
responsible for what happened.

He didn't have enemies.

Look what we do.

Artefacts.

Treasures. Even the
antiquities world has a dark side.

Honestly, there was no one.

You lied to me.

You said that you had a night at
home watching North By Northwest.

I asked you about Cary
Grant meeting George Kaplan,

but George Kaplan doesn't exist.

That's the big twist in Act II.

I was home.

I tried to ring Daniel.
He was so upset...

...about a guy that
I'd seen a few times.

- I did put the movie on.
- But then Daniel came over.

No, not Daniel.

Someone else.

Who was it?

I promised to keep him out of it.

He's married and has a kid.

He's an idiot.

Is he?

OK, I'm an idiot too,

but I don't
wanna be the one to wreck his marriage.

This might be just a fling,
as you say, but I'm telling you,

you're a murder suspect
and that idiot is your alibi.

Kia or a.

Oh, Sonny, have you been
keeping an eye on us all this time?

Yeah, just doing my job.

You married?

- Sorry, what?
- And you've got a baby.

Just one at this point, right?

Who have you been talking to?

Stella. Stella Moore.

I just happened, right.

- She was so unhappy and so...
- Vulnerable, I know.

- She promised to keep it quiet.
- Well, she tried.

Can you?

Please.

Maybe.

Depends how helpful you can be.

How long were you
with Stella that night?

A few hours.

- Anyone see you?
- No.

What time did you leave her?

I don't know. Midnight.

What was on those missing hard drives

that you didn't want people to see?

Sonny had all these in his locker?
He's a terrible thief.

Yeah.

OK, go to the exhibition space.

Sonny and Stella?! I guess that works.

- And he's married?
- Oh, very.

That man needs to dial down
his smile, like, 80%.

- There.
- It's 5.05... East Corridor.

- Well, it figures. It's Sonny.
- The fight was about him.

You don't even need the sound.

'How long's this been going on, then?'

'We're not together any more,
Daniel. Just butt out.'

If Sonny
was with Stella that night in bed, say,

and Daniel did turn up...

So, new lover fights the ex-lover
and Daniel gets killed.

And they fake the cliff fall. It fits.

Except that it doesn't.

Already selling your extra loaves...
hotcakes.

Great. I can retire... again.

Buddy, I was thinking maybe
you should brand your bread.

Make it stand out from
the supermarket sourdough.

No, I don't like packaging.

Well, simpler than that. You just use a
butter glaze.

Looks different. It looks cool.

Noted.

Right, I've been through Stella's
phone records.

She never called Sonny.

He would've told her not to.
He's married.

Well, that was an interesting request.

Phone data for Sonny Tuhana,
security guard.

Let me take a stab...

it places him with
Stella on the night that Daniel died.

It does.

Funny Stella never mentioned him.

So his phone is logged
at Stella's from 8.15pm to...

- ...midnight.
- No trips to the harbour with the body.

Unless he was smart enough to leave the
phone behind

when they dumped Daniel.

Sounds like it's time to
bring Sonny Tuhana in

and Stella... put a bit of pressure on.

Well, no hurry, eh?

Well, I think there is.
You found our love triangle.

That spells means and motive.
Well done, you.

No, there are loose ends.

- Yeah, and I'll tie 'em up.
- Loose ends you don't know about.

Look, the body went into the
water in the middle of the harbour.

It wasn't chucked over a cliff.

- What?
- It's a tide thing.

So, how would Sonny and Stella
get the body out there and why?

Why not just throw it over a cliff?

Good questions. I'll ask them.

Just give me 24 hours.

I think Sonny was just a friend...

just
a shoulder to cry on after a break-up.

- 24 hours.
- Thank you.

A shoulder.

Why are you protecting Sonny?

I'm not protecting Sonny;
I'm protecting his kid.

Look, we're not the police.
We can do things our way.

Your way.

All right, my way.

When I was a kid,

my father used to take us to the museum
all the time...

great memories there.

But then one time my mother took
us as a treat,

and that's where she told us

that she was moving to Australia
without Dad and we'd have to choose.

Well, that sucks.

You went with Mum?

And my brother Will stayed with Dad,
so happy, happy families!

So if we can not mess up
a kid's life today...

let's.

- Where are you going?
- Going to talk to Stella's neighbours.

Hello.

Hey.

Can I just say,
I don't think your life's a mess.

Ass off that table.
We don't do that in New Zealand.

Sorry.

There were 10 of us at home that,
so you sat where you could.

Do you see any chair shortages here?

Any luck with the neighbours?

- No, nobody remembers Sonny.
- OK, check this.

This is Daniel 15 minutes
after his flight with Stella.

Oh, Mads, this is it.

What's on display there?
What's he copying?

Well, how would I know?
It's the West Corridor.

I think he's going
to that meeting with Lillian.

And I think that's outside her office.

He showed her his hand.

Lillian doesn't bother
with socials much. It's no fun.

Studied history,

worked as a conservator in the UK

before
she made the jump to curator here.

- Mm-hm.
- Oh, newspaper article.

About Lillian getting
the job in New York...

senior curator at the Hibbard Centre,
youngest ever.

- Wait.
- This is such a puff piece.

- Let me see that.
- They even did a photo shoot.

- My God.
- I know. Her clothes are amazing.

Look where they took the photograph.

Lillian relaxes on the Mimu.

That's the Reid family yacht,
right here in the Auckland Harbour.

- Oh, and apparently they're selling it.
- Come on.

Wow. Look at me now.

Come on, Madison. We're working.

My office in Melbourne looked
out on a brick wall.

Hey, Alexa.

Can I help you?

Uh, hello. I'm Alexa Crowe.

Call me Trevor...
manager, caretaker, vigilante, eh.

Delighted.

We've been talking to Lillian
Reid about buying her yacht.

- Ah, the Mimu. Lovely.
- Yes.

Well, we were here for an inspection,

but I'm afraid Lillian has
been caught up at the museum,

and she told me never fear
that Trevor would see us right.

- Of course, he will. Come this way.
- Super.

How long you been sailing?

Oh, mate. My whole life.

Oh, right. Brilliant.

Ah, here we go.

Marv'.

Uh, oh, Trevor.

How do you keep track of
the boats coming and going?

I mean, what if one's stolen?

Right here in my pocket.

Yeah, it's all on an app these days.

Owners send me a note
when they wanna head out and easy.

And how often does the Mimu go out?

I mean, it hasn't been sitting here
for months

growing barnacles, has it?

Oh, well,
it goes out on the weekends a bit.

Lillian likes to take
her girlfriends for a sail.

Well, we actually have
a mutual friend with Lillian.

Tania was meant to go sailing,
wasn't she? When was that, Alexa?

Uh, it was a Monday night... the 9th.

Yes, and when she got here,
the yacht had sailed.

Mm. Oh, that's weird.

The 9th.

Ah, yeah, Lillian took the Mimu out
just after 8. I saw her leave.

It's funny to ignore Tania,

but then that happens, I suppose.

- Perhaps Lillian met a man.
- Mm.

- More fun than Tania, let me tell you.
- No, it was...

It was only Lillian. I'd remember a man.

Well, thank you, Trevor.
You have been very helpful.

OK, Western Corridor.
It's somewhere here.

Lillian lied about seeing
that pattern on Daniel's hand.

She fed us that line about collars.
What the hell is she covering up?

OK, this is the spot.

Right here.

Yeah. Daniel stood here,
drawing on his hand, copying what?

I don't see anything that looks like it.

Lillian Reid knows what it is.

Hello again.

I got a message.

I am remembering Centennial Street.
Was it not here?

Yeah, for nearly 50 years.

Oh, hey.

The CCTV footage showed up,
and I had a look at it.

Is there a problem?

Daniel showed you his hand.

I told you.
I have no recollection of that.

He'd just come from ranting at Stella,

and then he saw something
that he had to bring to you.

No.

No. It was a scheduled meeting.

Where did you go that night, Lillian?

Well, it was a Monday night.

I took the yacht out...
just on the motor.

Oh, that's a bit dangerous,
isn't it? You know, the dark?

Not if you're careful.

And I am careful.

Oh. Do you do that often at night?

I'm trying to sell it.

The motor needs to be turned over.
I do it when I can.

- Who went with you?
- No one.

I was alone.

You can check with the staff there.

You already have.

So you know I was by myself.

The drawing on Daniel's hand,
not a 16th century ruff.

Daniel was a mess, and what
happened to him was an awful accident.

If you think that's not the case,
well...

...you're going to have to prove it.

Ooh. Bread smells funny tonight.
What does it smell funny?

It's the butter glaze. It caramelises.

- Excuse me.
- Mm.

- Harry?
- Yup?

- Did you bring the wine?
- As ordered.

Entree.

And you think my grapefruit
candle stinks?

This is not a stink;

It's a butter glaze aroma.

It's all in the nose of the beholder,
right?

What's this smell?

- Candles.
- Butter glaze.

Here's the Prosecco...

same brand and shop as Daniel's
credit card purchase. It wasn't cheap.

But that's gonna look great
on your expense report.

Now, listen...

I lifted this off Lillian Reid's yacht.

See the embossing on the top?
That's a match.

That's Daniel's Prosecco, so it
places him on the yacht that night.

Oh, only circumstantially.

Until you get his thumbprint off it.

Oh, 50% chance it'll be Lillian's thumb.

He who buys the bubbly,
opens the bubbly. It's a rule.

Lillian has a witness
who says she went out alone.

And just after 8, Daniel's phone data
has been travelling east,

towards Okahu.

I know. I know, but still,
I'm telling ya.

Wow. You're really churning out
the loaves, aren't ya?

I won't ask if you've got a commercial
preparation

and foodstuffs permit.

Nice crackled top.

Here. Consider it a bribe.

And thank you for the extra time.
It puts Lillian firmly in the frame.

Why would Lillian Reid
kill Daniel Woodward?

That's something to think about.

You too.

I've been looking at
that Egyptian vase online,

and I checked out the museum
poster that was next to it.

I mean, maybe Daniel
was looking at that.

Poster.

That's interesting.

Yeah, but there's no match.

Nothing looks anything
like Daniel's drawing.

Bub-bub-bub-bub-bub-bub-bub-bub.

Don't you ever go home?

Who said I wasn't at home?

You don't give a man much choice.

- Where are we going?
- West Corridor.

Oh, this place at night gives me
the creeps,

ever since I saw that movie.

- What... Night At The Museum?
- Nah, another one.

OK. Here.

You know, Madison was right.
Daniel was copying the post.

Copying what?

You know how yesterday you were
hanging that frame poster in the lobby?

It was one of these, right?

Yeah.

Are all these posters new?

Yeah, I mean, I changed
this one over, oh, last Friday.

We've had to swap all the old ones
out. It was a big rush.

Starting when?

Two weeks ago.

Well, who wanted
all the old posters changed?

Lillian.

Good morning.

Where did you find that?

Oh, this old thing turned
up in the security office.

Caught my eye because this mask

is
The one thing I remember from years ago.

Wow. You should keep it then.

I didn't notice how cracked
the mask was.

I mean, it's not ageing well, is it?

That's called 'craquelure'.

It's the upper layers of paint
shrinking over the centuries.

Now, I must go...
packing up my office today.

How did that go?

Well, she's got ice water in
her veins, that one.

Now, I know that Daniel was sketching
a pattern of cracks on his hand,

and she knows I know,
but she keeps calling my bluff.

- But why was Daniel sketching it?
- I don't know.

What did you find out?

OK, the mask is 500 years old...
belonged to Artemisia Piscopia,

who was bossing it as a mathematician

when women were lucky
to get an education at all.

The mask came here via England

after it was looted from Italy in
the 1800s... just the usual story.

Nice scarf.

Looks old, even feels kind of old.

Sure. It's a replica.
It's not meant to look like new.

We gotta get upstairs quick.

He was copying these marks
from the poster.

It's not the same mask.

The cracks he copied from the poster

don't
match the ones on the mask on display.

It's the same effect,
but line for line...

Daniel had an amazing
eye for detail... Lillian said it.

Oh, he spotted it.

The original mask in the poster
has been replaced with a replica.

Lillian worked as an art conservator.

She'd have all the skills
to make a great fake.

Damaged mask, patterner of age,
craquelure.

- And she'd have access to do the swap.
- Right.

In the secure room during maintenance.

But why? She owns a yacht;
She doesn't need the cash.

No, if she found out, she's going
to jail and her career is over.

I mean, I get the feeling that
career is everything to Lillian.

Oh, yeah. The way she says
'New York', she just glows.

So,
Daniel comes to the curator and says,

'Ma'am,
you've got a fake in your collection.'

- There's motive.
- And she says, 'Why, thank you, Daniel.

'Why don't you come out on my yacht
and we'll talk about it?'

Except he didn't get on the yacht.

Right.

All right, I'm here.

Where did you get to?

I drove east along the waterfront

for about 13 minutes... like Daniel
did before

he turned off his phone.

Look around.
The police report says he was right

next to a phone tower
when he switched off.

Oh, yeah. Maybe this is where
Daniel rendezvoused with Lillian.

- But there's no proof of that.
- Not yet.

So, the go-to place to sell stolen
antiquities has to be the Dark Web.

I went in there and
advertised the genuine mask

of Artemisia Piscopia for sale.

Yeah, go on.

Well, if Lillian found a buyer
already, maybe we can flush 'em out.

Maybe there's a link to Lillian somehow.

Can you track people on that?

Not on the Dark Web, no.
But you can communicate with them.

- So, did anyone respond?
- Three hits so far.

Dreadlock asks how much we want.

Neat Working Goys says we're full of it

and warns everyone our mask is a fake.

Promising!

And Aragon 2041
actually offered us US$8000.

Neat Working Goys... reply to them.

Tell them that there's a rumour
that the police are investigating

the theft of the mask
from Auckland Museum.

- Why that one?
- Cos I'm good at cryptic crosswords.

Lillian made sure she was seen leaving
the marina that night

alone on her yacht.

I'm not staying in here... no way.

- But it was a taxi run, you see.
- Maybe I'd let you go first.

- Sure.
- Danny was waiting for her

at Okahu Bay.

You'll find that the paint
on the wharf matches.

I'll give you 10 minutes... tops.

No, we're doing this my way.
We settle this.

Is that your elbow?

Yes. What else would it be?

Thank you.

Hello, Lillian.

- How goes the packing?
- This isn't...

What are you doing?!

I'm really sorry about the job,
but I've been doing a little digging

and it seems that the chairman

of the
Hibbard Centre is one Filippo Albani,

but his middle name is Piscopia.

You know,
direct descendant of Artemisia Piscopia.

Oh. Well, I know nothing about that.

Yeah, it turns out
he's a huge baseball fan too.

Neat Working Goys turns out to be
an anagram of 'Go, New York Giants'.

You're talking gibberish.

And right about now, the FBI is
seizing his phone and internet gear.

All he wanted was the mask
back in the family.

And all you wanted
was a job in the Big Apple.

When Daniel came to you about the fake
mask,

he had no idea you were responsible.

You invited him out on your yacht.
He'd had a bad day.

You picked him up at a Okahu Bay

cos you knew no one would
see anything after 8 at night.

You drank bubbly with him
until he was tipsy.

And then you smashed his skull
with a fire extinguisher...

...stole his phone
and left his body to the tide.

You got your yacht back to the marina,

and then you drove your
car to find Daniel's at Okahu,

and then you dropped it off
at Achilles Point.

Then you sent a farewell text to Stella.

Another fake.

Cleaned up and walked back down
the hill to your car.

Oh, come on. That's all conjecture.

Afraid not.

You didn't check the yacht well enough.

Daniel's prints were all over the
Prosecco cork that I found there.

Plus, your yacht scraped the
dark when you picked up Daniel,

and the paint on your hull is a match.

And now here you are trying to swap
the real mask back before

you're caught.

Hi.

I'm Harry. I don't think we've met.

- Hey.
- Lillian Reid...

Yeah, a very ambitious woman.

And Daniel's eyes
were a little too sharp.

Thanks for protecting Sonny
and me, you know?

No problem.

Only I was really doing it
to protect Sonny's kid... not you.

So, what next?

We were gonna tour the exhibition next
month...

Melbourne first, then San Diego.

Well, that sounds great.

I don't know.
Auckland feels like home now.

Oh, come on. You're allowed to leave.

And when you get back,
well, home's there.

You can just slip right back in.

Kia or a.

I'm not sure about Kate Sheppard now.

A gift from a murderer?
I don't think I can wearit.

Oh.

Well, that's sad

I'll just put it in the bin
with my candles. You happy?

No, I'm sad... like I said.

Oh, I bought your candle
from the museum gift shop.

A present? It's not my birthday.

In the bag on the table. It's scented.

- I'm amazed.
- I'm in the mood for a compromise.

The scent is fresh baked bread.

You have a right to feel at home,
I guess.

- Well, that's sweet!
- Yeah, mm.

Until I kick you out.

Is there any place in this country
that doesn't look amazing?

- Hello.
- We actually do our wine tastings

in the reception area.

Oh, we're not here to test wines.

Cheers.

She was killed when she went
into the winery grape crusher.

I understand you're doubtful
that it was an accident.

I think there's something
very weird going on in that place.
