(dramatic music) - He's not coming back.
Inspector Wellington won't be returning from New York.
- [Man] Smart money is on a detective inspector from Bristol, Alexander Blake.
- [Eliza] Inspector Blake, I presume.
- Miss...?
- Scarlet.
- Please shut the door on the way out.
- [Man] He doesn't use private detectives.
- Morning, Inspector Blake.
- Miss Scarlet, we seem to have a communication problem.
- In a few mere days, you will make me the happiest man alive.
Bonjour, Eliza.
- Patrick.
- To rock bottom.
The only way is up.
- Oh, he's far from dangerous.
- I said, what do you want?
(gavel banging) - If I were to take your case, it would put me in a difficult position.
- Eliza Scarlet, I'm arresting you on suspicion of murder.
- Think of the worst thing you can imagine.
My friend here will deliver it.
Cease your investigation.
- I have a life outside of work, Miss Scarlet, as I'm sure you do.
- I wondered, might you be free tomorrow evening to dine.
- Oh.
I may not be home for dinner.
- You dining out?
- Possibly.
Whatever happened to in my day, you found a nice man and settled down.
- I'm allowed to change my mind.
They're going to kill him.
(gun shooting) - Oh, Detective Phelps how are you?
- Don't ask.
- Didn't you used to know these gentlemen?
- I know the resentment that you carry, but now is not the time.
- There's something else going on here, I know it.
- You cannot continue with this case.
- Eliza.
- There's much about me that you don't know.
It's intriguing, is it not?
- I shall get on with the business of finding whoever did this.
- It's a puzzle to solve and that puzzle's more likely to be solved working with you.
So?
- Police!
- [Eliza] You have your work cut out for you.
