[ Suspenseful music plays ]
[ Woman screams ]
[ Birds chirping ]
[ Children shouting playfully ]
AGATHA: [ Chuckles ]
Of course your charity film night
is going to be a success, Charlie boy.
-Good morning. -Morning.
I have run national events. I´ve run global events.
Well, you´ve just need
to make sure it´s all organized at your end.
Yes, well, there is certainly a buzz around here.
Right.
I would love to, but I am off on a 5-mile hike.
Bye.
[ Vacuum cleaner whirring ]
[ Door closes ]
Hi!
GEMMA: Oh, all right.
Hi, Hodge.
[ Smooching ] Oh, I know.
More stuff for the film night, is it?
No. I´m going r-r-rambling.
Rambling?
That´s what people do in the countryside.
They r-r-ramble.
I just want to blend in.
-Hey, you should come. -[ Cellphone rings ]
Fancy a walk?
-Yeah, all right. -Mm.
[ Whistle blows ]
-Shouldn´t you get that? -No.
It´ll just be Roy with some London P.R. nonsense.
Quite frankly, I´m done with all that.
And...
ta-da!
How do I look?
Oh, hello. Who are you trying to impress?
There she is -- the subject of this week´s walk and talk
and your future home, Mary -- Carsely.
Where I´ve got this feeling I´m gonna be blissfully happy.
Originally a Saxon settlement, wasn´t it?
JAMES: You know your history.
There have been people living here since the 7th century.
[ Sighs ]
MARY: And isn´t it true that Carsely
is also famous for its cotton, if we´re to believe Pevsner?
-And lions. -Lions?
All right, not lions.
But long-backed Cotswold sheepy things
used to live around here.
Much prized throughout Europe, apparently.
If we´re to believe the beer mats in the pub.
Beer mats. [ Laughs ]
-Oh, you´re funny, Tabitha. -Agatha.
Are you coming to the film night, James?
Oh, of course we are.
James and I wouldn´t dream of missing your little event.
We´re bringing a picnic, aren´t we?
-Indeed. -Marvelous.
[ Gunshots ]
Sorry, mate, but we ain´t budging.
Going nowhere. Comprende?
You are meant to keep to the public footpaths
and have been given repeated warnings
to stay away from these crops.
-Five... -[ Gun cocks ]
-Jessica. -...four...
For once, just leave.
Definitely not worth dying for. Come on, Kirsty, let´s go.
Kirsty. You´ll stand by me, won´t you?
Um...
sorry, Jess.
That´s what´s wrong with you people.
You think you own the bloody countryside.
Actually, I do.
Or at least this little bit of it, anyway.
Charlie Fraith.
Gustav, put the gun down.
Then, as you well know from our copious correspondence,
there´s an ancient right-of-way across your field,
and we intend to use it.
And as you know from my equally copious responses,
my crops have grown over any pathway.
Tough.
Couldn´t we -- I mean, if it´s okay with you --
go ´round the edge?
Great. I have no problem with that.
-Uh... -Deborah.
We´ve met once or twice in the village.
Debs. [ Chuckles ]
-[ Chuckles ] -What is wrong with you people?
We are doing this because of capitalists like him
eroding our basic human rights.
Remember?
Thought we were doing it ´cause we liked walking.
If we don´t make a stand, where will it all end?
On the other side of the field, if you go ´round the edge.
[ Laughs ]
Patronizing snob.
-Two... -[ Gun cocks ]
-...one. -Gustav.
Jess, come on. Now, I really...
-Come on. -JESSICA: Call yourself a man?
Can´t you grow a pair for once?
I´ll be back!
-Come on. -Get off!
MARY: That was a nice warm-up.
When do we go on the real walk?
I can think of another way to warm up.
MARY: [ Laughs ]
[ Suspenseful music plays ]
[ Door creaking ]
AGATHA: Is anybody there?
Did I, uh...
Have we... [ Breathes deeply ]
This is my cottage, isn´t it?
-Aah! -Aggie, darling.
-Oh. -What happened?
You look awful.
Why are you here?
I´ve been dumped. I had to get out of London.
-Is that my... -You don´t mind, do you?
No.
I am, however, a little curious about the, uh...
elephant in the room.
Well, not exactly elephant,
although, um...
uh...
Naked man.
Sitting in the middle of my living room
with his chakras all over my designer rug.
Ring any balls? B-Bells. Bells.
ROY: That´s Khusan.
He´s a Naked Yoga teacher.
[ Whispering ] Comfort shag.
[ Sighing ] Oh.
Doesn´t say very much, does he?
And yet he´s clearly not shy.
What´s this?
It´s a film event.
I´ve been helping to publicize it.
[ Laughter, Boccherini´s "Minuet" plays ]
Oh, I don´t know.
I can´t even find a man, and yet you...
you find yourself a drop-dead gorgeous one hung like a Hoover
the second you get dumped.
How is Juicy James, anyway?
As far as I know, he is fine.
Who´s that hottie with him?
AGATHA: That´ll be Mary Fortune marking her territory.
A divorcée.
She bakes, gardens, and flirts --
and not necessarily in that order.
CHARLES: Agatha.
-You´re a genius. -Oh. Well.
Well done. I owe you.
Charles "Shagger" Fraith. Owns this place.
ROY: Seems to like you.
No, he just likes the fact that I´ve helped make this event --
and therefore him -- popular.
There is a difference.
Still. You´re clearly making your mark.
I´m trying.
I´m really trying.
CHARLES: Ladies, welcome to Barfield House.
Please help yourselves to a drink.
Thank you.
You look absolutely stunning.
That dress is gorgeous.
This old thing. Don´t be silly.
-Oh. -Cheers.
Cheers!
You didn´t tell me this was his gaff.
-Does it really matter? -Obviously.
Ah, I almost didn´t recognize you without your ax to grind.
Would you like to look around?
Really? Could I?
We´ll have to fumigate the place afterwards.
-JESSICA: Hello. -KIRSTY: Hello.
Now, I am going back walking again tomorrow
whether you chickens are coming or not.
It´s a point of principle.
Just let it go, will you?
We want to be able to enjoy our evening without you banging on.
What about you, Kirsty?
You´re much more of a rider on the edge of darkness,
aren´t you?
What is it you do again?
Me? Oh, nothing, really.
Like Jessica and Jeff, I´m just a teacher -- physics.
But that´s wonderful.
Ah, it´s nothing.
Compared to all this. [ Breathes deeply ]
Must be amazing to be part of all this history and heritage.
CHARLES: Well, I suppose it does show what can be achieved
-with a little bit of effort. -[ Chuckles ]
It can get lonely, though.
[ Clears throat ] Sir.
The film.
It´s about to start.
[ Clock chimes ]
JAMES: Have you ever seen "The Ladykillers" before?
MARY: I haven´t.
JAMES: [ Speaking indistinctly ]
-MARY: Oh. -I have to say,
it´s an interesting choice of Charlie Fraith
to be showing it at his festival.
[ Both laugh ]
CHARLES: Ladies and gentlemen...
welcome to Barfield and our first charity film screening.
I hope there will be many more. Enjoy.
[ Applause ]
[ Engine shuts off ]
[ Vehicle doors open, close ]
MARY: Oh, James.
[ Laughs ]
JAMES: Coming in for a quick one?
[ Groans ]
MARY: I bet you say that to all the girls.
[ Ominous music plays ]
[ Police radio chatter ]
Victim is Jessica Tartinck.
Belonged to a group of ramblers from Dembley.
Farm laborer Joe Noakes found her first thing.
One word, Constable -- "alibi."
Checking them.
That´s why I have a 100% strike rate with solving murders.
We´ve only had one, which Agatha solved.
Mr. Noakes.
Where were you earlier this morning?
I was home. Then here.
And did you see anything or notice anyone acting suspicious?
Sir Charles. Arguing, like.
-Who with? -Her.
Right old dingdong.
Shouting and bellowing. [ Scoffs ]
I left them to it and headed over to the other field,
but couldn´t find my spade, so came back,
and that´s when I found the body.
Anything else? Anything at all?
Aye.
I saw Sir Charles on the horizon.
Running, he was.
Fast.
What did I tell you?
No alibi.
No, but he did just place Sir Charles
behaving suspiciously at the scene of the crime
around the time of the murder.
CHARLES: I don´t believe this. It´s ridiculous.
-Come on. -Look...
of course I was running.
-I was out jogging. -Yeah.
Save it for the judge.
-Ow! -Sorry.
[ Siren wailing ]
[ Doorbell rings ]
-SARAH: Ah, Agatha. -What?
This is a friend of mine from the church, Deborah Camden.
I need your help.
Okay.
I think the police are making a terrible mistake
suspecting Charlie.
It´s much more likely it was that manservant of his.
He threatened us.
Okay, well, that´s all very interesting,
but where do I fit in?
Ah, that´s my fault.
I might have mentioned that you´re...
An expert in these matters.
Oh, well, I wouldn´t go that far.
Oh, but we so appreciated what you did before.
DEBORAH: Charlie´s only just been released.
He´s still a suspect, but it can´t have been him.
I need you to find out who really killed Jessica.
I can fill you in on who´s who and what´s what.
Will you? For Charlie?
Please.
There´s been a murder, Gemma.
No. No! I have not bumped off Mary.
Just get your tush over here right now.
Good morning.
What´s happened?
I´ve got another case,
and you are gonna get me some background info.
I´ve got to go to work.
AGATHA: Yes, you do -- for me.
Where´s Khusan?
Oh, no.
Oh, God.
Khusan! Khusan!
[ Woman laughing ]
-MAN: Oh! -WOMAN: My God.
Khusan!
No, Khusan!
Put it away!
[ Grunts ]
So, this is Dembley, and according to Deborah,
victim...
...Jessica Tartinck.
-Suspects... -[ Toy squeaks ]
...Charlie boy
and his gun-wielding manservant, Gustav...
Deborah´s walker mates...
which includes Jeff, Jessica´s boyfriend;
and two ladies that work at the garden center in Dembley,
Kirsty and Alice.
And what about Joe Noakes?
´Cause he found the body, didn´t he?
Yeah.
-Joe Noakes. -[ Hodge meows ]
What? We´re just brainstorming.
It´s what we do in P.R.
We just...kick stuff around...
think outside the box...
throw stuff at the wall, see what sticks.
You don´t know where to start, do you?
No idea. You?
Well, in terms of the murder scene, okay,
there are two ways across the field
to where Jessica was killed --
one going towards the house there...
the other one going diagonally across
where the crops are heavier there.
So the killer could have easily come from the diagonal
and been hidden by the crops,
which is good news for the salt pot.
Oh, Sir Charlie. Yeah.
Means he could be innocent.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
Where do you think you´re going? Where´s my research?
Something of the campaigner, your Jessica.
Ancient rights-of-way, road protests, fracking --
You name it, she´s banged on about it.
AGATHA: She must have made a lot of enemies.
Right, well, we have to speak to Sir Charles as soon as we can.
-Roy. -Yes.
I need you to do a little bit of digging
on the rest of the ramblers for me -- fast.
-Mwah, mwah. -Mwah, mwah.
Bye, Aggie.
Goodbye, Khusan.
Mefiez-vous de l´illusion de la connaissance.
[ Engine starts ]
Mef-- Meffy what, what?
[ Doorbell rings ]
Hello. Remember me? Agatha Raisin.
And you are?
Her cleaner.
That P.R. woman and...
her cleaner.
AGATHA: Oh, James.
What are you doing here?
I could ask you the same question.
I asked James to come over.
I´m in a spot of trouble.
So I gather.
Deborah Camden asked me to investigate the murder.
Well, what can you find out that the police can´t?
Well, heel marks for a start.
Lots of them.
Now, who would come out here in heels?
Any women visiting this morning, Charlie boy?
-No. -Right, well.
We shall continue with our inquiries, then.
How exactly?
By thinking outside the box, James.
Throwing our brains against the wall and seeing what sticks.
You could always just get a good lawyer.
How about -- a bit of a stupid idea.
Okay, how about you two go undercover
to suss out the ramblers?
We could do.
Why would we do that?
I mean, you haven´t met them, have you?
They don´t know who you are in Dembley.
So you could get Deborah to introduce you to everyone,
and then, you know, steam on in, do your biz.
Bob´s your uncle.
What do you mean by the "biz" exactly?
-JAMES: The investigating. -Right.
And you´re right -- It´s a terrible idea.
Well, I´ve got to do something, James.
And if it´s any help, I own a cottage in Dembley.
[ Gasps ] Oh.
Oh, thank you, God.
[ Bell tolling ]
Here we are.
How long are you staying?
As long as it takes...
to get Charlie off the hook and find the killer.
[ Grunts ]
I´ll...take the spare room.
-[ Door opens, cellphone rings ] -[ Sighs ]
Hi, Aggie. It´s Roy.
AGATHA: What?
I think I´ve got something for you.
It´s about Jeff Benson.
Well, I´m all ears.
ROY: Ahh!
I´ll send it over right away.
[ Cellphone chimes ]
Hiya, Jeff.
Are you still up for meeting later?
It´s okay, Kirsty.
I know you saw Jess after the film night.
Nothing happened.
Jeff, I promise.
Another word for you -- "stakeout."
Perfect view of the garden center at 11:00,
where two of our possible suspects are working.
And over there at, mm, 3:00, the pub,
where the deceased´s boyfriend, Jeff Benson, is hanging out.
Notice anything?
BILL: He´s smoking a fag.
My trained eyes see something different.
A man in a pub in the middle of the day --
I´d say that was a sign of a guilty conscience.
Or a man lost because his girlfriend´s just been murdered.
Ooh! Ooh! He´s on the move.
[ Engine starts ]
[ Tires screech ]
Deborah Camden is joining them, too.
They´re all in on it.
Or meeting for a coffee.
WILKES: Mm.
Jeff Benson...
BILL: But what are they doing here?
Deborah´s going to introduce us as new friends
that she´s just met.
-You all set? -As I´ll ever be.
Look, understated and natural -- That´s how we´re playing it.
Low-key is my middle name, James.
Come along.
-DEBORAH: Hi. -Hi.
Can I, uh, introduce some friends of mine?
This is...
Mr. and Mrs. Lacey.
James and Agatha.
Or Aggie and...
Jay Jay.
Yeah, we´ve just moved into the area,
and there´s nothing we like more than to ramble,
if you´ll pardon the expression.
Yes, we´ve heard all about your group --
the campaigns, the rights-of-way.
I think we´re probably finished with all that nonsense now.
Maybe we should carry on in Jess´ memory.
The campaigns were led by a friend of ours.
-They were her thing. -Not her only thing.
Have some respect.
I don´t think you´ve picked the right moment, to be honest.
Our friend, she went out on a walk...
and was killed.
-[ Gasps ] -Oh.
AGATHA: Oh. Oh, how awful.
Why did Jess go out on her own? It just --
Well, I´m just wondering, you know,
with you being a group and all.
Sorry. Can we not do this now?
-I´m really not in the mood. -Of course.
I-I think it´s best if we leave you to it.
If you do decide to go out again, we´d love to join you.
Aggie.
Yes?
-Darling. -[ Chuckles ]
Jay Jay?
What are you doing saying we´re married?
What are you doing making us leave?
The boyfriend was about to open up.
Yeah, and land a punch on you.
And don´t get me started on the lipstick lesbians.
Alice and Kirsty.
They´re gay, and they´re an item.
Alice was wearing a rainbow bracelet,
and she was not at all happy
about Kirsty being nice about Jess.
Not now, Bill.
Jeff Benson -- Find out why he resigned from his job.
Where are we going?
To wait for our saucy Sapphic sisters.
The Laceys seemed nice, didn´t they?
I don´t know. They seemed a bit odd to me.
There´s something not right.
I´ll...catch you up.
Okay.
Hello, again.
I´m sorry if I put my foot in it in the café.
No. No, it´s not your fault.
Everything´s just a bit raw at the moment.
I´m sure.
Well, I´m a good listener...
if it any help.
James.
What are you doing here?
JAMES: Compost.
In need of compost.
Was that Agatha you were with?
What? No.
Well, yes.
Sort of.
[ Chuckling ] Oh. Which is it?
Just bumped into her.
Fancy that.
[ Chuckles ] Fancy.
So, you´ll be free to join me
for something to eat later, then.
What? I mean...
that would be great.
That must be hard, though.
You know -- working together and being a couple.
Is it that obvious? [ Sighs ]
We don´t like to shout about it.
The village isn´t that understanding.
What happened the other night?
We went to a film night, and, uh, it kicked off afterwards.
But not about walking, right?
No.
Jess, she, um...
she made a pass at me.
She used her sexuality as a weapon.
No one was safe.
Anyway, nothing happened, but...
try telling the others that.
I, um...
I should get back.
-Okay. -[ Chuckles ]
[ Dialing ]
Come on, pick up.
James, it´s me.
I´m in the Wendy house.
I think onto something.
[ Shovel scraping ]
[ Footsteps ]
Aah!
Bill!
What are you doing creeping around?
Who are you to talk?
What are you and James Lacey doing in Dembley?
-[ Door closes ] -Posing as a married couple.
Why didn´t you ask me?
Oh, Bill. Just tell me about Jeff Benson.
[ Sighs ]
School say he left by mutual consent.
Yeah, well, that´s a P.R. phrase if ever there was one.
That means he did something bad.
Bill.
This is cozy.
Listen, we have got suspects with real motives.
Jess made a pass at Kirsty.
-Really? -Really?
I know.
This place -- It´s a hotbed of seething sexuality.
Clearly I´m living in the wrong village.
Anyway, I don´t suppose that would have pleased
either of their partners, Jeff or Alice.
Ooh.
Do I need a funny handshake, or can anyone come in?
Ahh.
Ooh. Ooh.
[ Grunting ]
[ Doll crying ]
Right. What´s going on?
-Uh-oh. -[ Doll crying ]
Police business!
Wow.
[ Bell dinging ]
-Deborah. -Agatha, hi.
I could use a second opinion.
What do you think of this one -- gorgeous or what?
Absolutely fabulous.
Where you going?
Charlie´s got rid of that horrid Gustav and asked me over.
This could be my one-way ticket to becoming somebody.
Charlie´s managed it. Why can´t I?
Today, a physics teacher.
Tomorrow, Lady Fraith.
Lady Fraith?
That´s a little bit of a leap, isn´t it?
No, no. Tonight´s the night.
What? The...
I think he´s going to propose.
Huh? What?!
Whoa, whoa. Hang on a sec.
-Really? -I-I hope so.
It´s -- It´s all been such a whirlwind.
See, he´s my first...
real boyfriend and...
Anyway, enough about me.
How´s the investigation going?
Uh, okay.
Why don´t you tell me about your friends?
-Where did you all meet? -Through work.
I got a job at the same school as Jessica and Jeff.
Mm.
Did you know she swung both ways?
-Jess? -Mm-hmm.
No way.
I-I had no idea.
[ Hodge meows ]
[ Meowing ]
[ Meowing continues ]
Meow.
-Meow. -Bill?
I...thought I´d check on Hodge.
Oh. Well, Aggie asked me to do that.
Missing Agatha, are you?
No.
What´s all this?
Yeah, that´s all the suspects at the scene.
Oh. If you include this one.
What´s with the quote?
Yeah, Aggie thinks that´s a gift from the gods, that.
Thank you.
Wife at home, is she?
Yes. Yes, she is.
Did he say something about "wife"?
Wi-Fi.
Ah. Cheers.
Aah!
[ Bell tolling ]
[ Door opens ]
Agatha.
Zip it, stranger.
And what do you think you´re playing at, Jay Jay?
I´ve been slaving over a hot stove for hours...
-Hang on just a second. -...cooking your dinner.
Would somebody please tell me what´s going on?
And you can tell this trollop where to get off.
Oh! I´m not gonna stay here and be insulted!
AGATHA: Oh, good.
Because you´re not welcome.
You are in the wrong village.
Deborah, it´s Jeff.
[ Answering machine beeps, door slams ]
I´ve said I´m sorry.
Okay? And I get that I may have overreacted a little.
A little?!
I´m getting my stuff and leaving.
Don´t be so ridiculous!
Why would you do that?
I never said that I would be here this evening.
You had no right to assume otherwise.
You are not my wife!
[ Door closes ]
[ Answering machine beeps ]
CHARLES: James. Charlie.
Agatha is an absolute star.
I couldn´t get you on the mobile, but just so you know,
the ramblers weren´t sure about you
until Agatha kicked off in the pub.
Now they´re convinced you´re a married couple.
Tell her from me she´s a great actress.
-Bye. -[ Beep ]
[ Engine starts ]
[ Engine revs ]
-Aggie! Watch out! -Aah!
[ Rooster crows ]
[ Sighs ]
Have I died?
You had quite a shock.
Thank you for saving me.
I owed you. [ Breathes deeply ]
For not realizing that your little stunt in the pub
was an act.
Yeah.
You were faking, weren´t you?
We need to find out who was driving the car.
I know who the car belongs to.
-CHARLES: Come through. -AGATHA: Thank you.
-It´s Gustav´s day off. -Ah.
-Coffee? -AGATHA: Lovely.
Thanks.
You´ve got your feet firmly under the table, haven´t you?
So, did he go down on one knee, then?
Not yet.
CHARLES: How can I help?
I know you drive a Land Rover most of the time.
But do you still have that old Cortina?
I can´t bear to part with it.
Mm. Did you use it last night?
No. We were here all night.
Why?
Does anyone else use it?
Well, the keys are in the kitchen.
Gustav sometimes takes it out.
Gustav?
No?
Hmm.
He usually goes shooting on the road on his days off.
Would you look at that?
Heels.
JAMES: That´s right, Bill.
Shooting range near Barfield House.
Yes, of course. We´ll leave you to it.
The police are heading over there.
-[ Sighs ] -What´s wrong?
I just don´t get it.
Why would Gustav try and run me over?
Because you were onto him.
But that´s just it -- I wasn´t.
Nothing had gone wrong with Gustav´s plan.
So why risk breaking cover?
Maybe he cracked under pressure.
Doesn´t really look like cracking type.
Are you coming or what?
[ Gunshots ]
Pull.
[ Gunshot ]
What do you want?
JEFF: I knew it was you. It had to be.
JAMES: Come on, guys.
Put the guns down.
I want justice for Jessica.
-We all do. -He threatened us.
-He warned her. -You were trespassing.
I said, "Put the guns down."
Where were you last night when Sir Charles was with Deborah?
Leicester.
I promised Sir Charles´ father I would protect him,
so I took my car and went to see where Deborah grew up
to try and understand what she´s up to.
Can anyone confirm that you were there?
Her parents can. They saw me.
They came out and told me to go away.
Well, if he didn´t do it, who did?
Well, you could have, for starters.
Possibly jealous of Jess´ voracious sexual appetite.
I didn´t give a damn about them.
It´s a free world.
Really?
Well, why did you leave your job under a cloud?
A pupil heard about Jessica´s bisexuality
and mocked her for it.
She didn´t give a damn, but I...
I lashed out.
I made a mistake.
Defending her honor?
Jess was trouble, all right.
But she was my trouble.
She was everything to me, and I loved her.
I didn´t kill her.
I wouldn´t lay a finger on her.
Jeff...
put the gun down.
[ Sirens wailing ]
Nobody move!
Should we go back to bed?
Um, listen...
I think we´ve had enough of that, don´t you?
It´s time to get serious.
Look, we -- We´ve had our meaningless fun.
And now it´s over.
-[ Gasps ] -Right?
[ Breathes sharply ]
[ Sighs ] I´m sorry.
[ Breathing shakily ]
[ Police radio chatter ]
BILL: You think someone´s framing Gustav?
AGATHA: Yes, I do.
And then Sir Charles
said that he leaves his car keys in the kitchen.
So pretty much anyone could have taken them last night.
The murderer being who?
Alice is our main suspect now.
Jess made a pass at her girlfriend.
She knows we´re sniffing around.
Maybe she stole the car and tried to run Agatha down.
We´ll bring her in.
Oh.
I saw your suspects table.
You were one short, by the way.
You were missing a monkey.
And I cracked your message from the gods --
"Beware the illusion of knowledge."
AGATHA: What does that mean?
No idea.
What was Bill on about monkeys?
Oh, my suspects table.
He thinks I´ve missed someone out,
but we just didn´t include Deborah
because she´s the one who asked me to investigate.
-[ Gasps ] -[ Tires screech ]
That´s it!
Brake like that again, it will be.
[ Grunts ]
-Which way´s Charlie´s again? -That way.
-[ Engine revs ] -But I´m very happy to walk!
AGATHA: Sex, sex.
-It´s all about sex. -Two hands on the wheel, please.
Deborah looked stunned when I mentioned Jessica´s bisexuality.
I thought that it was because she didn´t know about it.
But what if it was that she was more horrified that I did know?
But Deborah was with Charlie last night.
She could have snuck off. We´re only down the road.
Yeah, but as you said, she asked you to investigate.
To help get Charlie off the hook.
Come on!
-[ Horn honking ] -I think she framed Gustav
and totally underestimated me.
-[ Tires screeching ] -No, no, no! No!
[ Crash ]
AGATHA: Oh!
Bloody road hog!
What do we do now?
We ramble.
-Charlie´s in danger. -Why?
You said that Deborah thinks he´s going to propose.
Yes, and you said that he wasn´t about to any time soon.
And if he doesn´t, hell hath no fury.
[ Whistling ]
I´ll give you "meaningless fun"!
Bill? Barfield House -- now!
[ Breathing heavily ]
[ Breathes deeply ]
[ Sighs ]
Where´s Charles?
There´s been an accident.
I-I think he´s killed himself.
Only he hasn´t, has he, Deborah?
Something that Kirsty said.
That Jessica used her sexuality as a weapon
and that nobody was safe.
You weren´t safe, were you?
I don´t know what you mean.
Kirsty was strong enough to resist Jessica´s advances.
But you weren´t, were you?
New girl in town.
An innocent ripe for the taking.
What happened?
God, it...
It was just one night.
It all had been forgotten until I sat there after the film night
and told her I was going to marry Charlie.
She laughed in my face...
wondered what he´d think if he knew I´d slept with her.
She was gonna tell him.
And you couldn´t risk that?
This was my chance.
This was my shot.
-I just wanted... -[ Siren wailing ]
...something more.
Can you understand that?
Yes, I can.
[ Vehicles approaching ]
[ Engine shuts off, vehicle doors open, close ]
JAMES: Ah, that´s great news.
No, I´m really please to hear it.
Okay, speak later. Bye.
Well, the hospital´s gonna keep him in over night,
but Charlie is gonna be fine.
And he says that he is eternally grateful.
So...what about you and Mary?
I...
sent her some flowers.
Sorry...if I complicated things.
Ready to go?
[ Breathes deeply ] Yeah.
Ready.
Hey.
It´s arrived.
Khusan´s Naked Yoga video.
Are we doing yoga?
No, not doing it. Watching it.
Oh. [ Chuckles ]
Thank you.

How was married life, then?
Overrated.
