- You must be the new guy.
- Ariki Davis.

Welcome to Queenstown, son.

It's Grub.

We found him at One Lane Bridge.

- Did he drown?
- He fell.

- That f*cking bridge.
- Who?

- Grub.
- Sorry for your loss.

What if he didn't jump?

You working this case,
that's a conflict of interest.

Stop. Stop! Stop!

Wh...? Oi!

f*ck.

Oi!

- What the f*ck?!
- I'm so sorry.

You almost k*lled me back there!
I'm not that hard to spot.

I was in the middle
of the f*ck' bridge!

I didn't f*ck' see you.

Oi!

Yeah, we're all good, mate!

You f*ck' idiot.

Just watch where you're going
next time, OK?

HDB652.

HDB652.

Mark McCrae.

- Oh.
- Sorry.

Thought you were Stephen.

- Sleep well.
- You too.

Lois.

- Where's Stephen?
- Goes into work early.

Where's Grub?

Da...

Dad,

Grub died.

He's dead.

Ohh.

OK. Come on.

Let's get you in the shower. Come.

- You're OK.
- No.

- Please, no, no, no, no.
- Come on.

Why?

- You... You're OK, Dad.
- What...? Wh-Why?

Uh, he does best with a slow start.

Breakfast in bed,
the paper, Nine To Noon.

He shat himself.

Sorry. I might've put
the night nappy on wrong.

It's OK. Come on.

Now, do you want...

jam or marmalade?

Marmalade.

Morning, boys.

- Morning.
- Morning.

Briefing in 10 minutes.

A-About yesterday.

I stepped out of line, and...

I shouldn't have said
the things that I did.

I'm the new kid.
I mean, what do I know?

You are a big part of
why I said yes to this job,

and I need to change some sh*t up,
and I want to push myself.

Apology accepted.

Um,

you are right. About Grub's death.

All the hallmarks of a suicide.

Well, that's not what you
thought yesterday.

I slept on it.

Hey, Kate, the wall classifier
said the...

Hey.

Hey.

Grub's injuries
are consistent with a fall.

He died instantly.

Could he have been k*lled somewhere
else and placed on the rocks?

No.

Coroner's happy with the findings,
undertaker's on standby,

so it's over to you.

Uh, where's his watch?

He wasn't wearing one.

I'll let the family know
they can come and collect him.

Now, here's something weird.

Found this in his fist.

- Is that a tooth?
- Adult molar.

Not his.

Thank you.

Uh, so what now, boss?

Well, we break the news
to the family.

Uh, we close the case, grieve the
dead and move on to the next one.

Hey, Riki.

I might need some backup
on this one.

You OK?

Yeah.

Sorry. Uh, I almost got
bowled off my bike here last night,

so... still have the wobbles, eh.

Yeah, people round here
drive like lunatics.

There's nothing
you need to tell me

that might affect your ability to work,
impair your judgement?

Heart problems?

Asthma? Howl at the moon?

Nah.

Come on.

Grub was jumpin' the fence.

- What?
- With Charlotte.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah.

I saw them
in town a couple of times

in out-of-the-way places.

Everyone knows.

Except Kate?

Well, what am
I supposed to do with this?

f*cked if I know.

I just don't wanna be the
only one carrying it around.

Good... Rob's here.

I can tell them if you want.

No.

Uh, we're not treating
Grub's death as suspicious.

We've been over One Lane
Bridge with a fine-tooth comb.

Unless any new evidence
comes to light,

- we're closing the case.
- What about...

Haggis?

The affair?
