Agatha Raisin

I'm gonna find her.

Agatha!

Agatha!

What are you doing?

Rescuing Agatha!

Fire's in there.

It's a sign.

Yes, I count at least six.

No, not that sort of sign, Charles.

The sort my boss uses.

Oh, right, him.

I mean, why would anyone want to build a casino in Snoth.

It's hardly Monte Carlo, is it?

Oy!

Shut up!

You can't stop -- no -- stupid interfering gits!

It's evolution! Progress!

-We don't want you -- -Power to the people!

Yeah! Power to the people!

This isn't Vegas. We don't want...

Come along, Che Guevara. Let's go see how Agatha's doing.

So you're telling me that after seeing Mr. Weldon's

body in the lobby, you were attacked by a bear?

Of course I'm not.

I was knocked out by someone in a bear costume.

I've been doing some digging, Mrs. Raisin.

Murder seems to follow you around.

Well, I'm afraid it comes with the job.

16 years I've been policing Snoth,

and murder wise, we'd amassed a big fat nul points

till you got here.

Well, in that case, I think you're going to need

my help to investigate it then, aren't --

Will you stop doing that.

Sorry.

I mean, my wife put them on a hot wash.

Why were you in the victim's room

after the fire alarm went off?

Remove this flagrant abuse of human rights,

and maybe, just maybe we can talk.

Not while you remain a suspect and a flight risk.

Answer the question.

The door was open.

I was checking to make sure everyone had got out.

Bullchop, a.k.a., I don't believe you.

Oh, my head hurts again.

I'm not sure I'm strong enough to do this right now.

Would you mind?

Come on, Janet.

I saw Harry Beam in a teddy bear costume yesterday.

Is that the dishy receptionist?

He's not that dishy.

No, my instinct tells me it wasn't Harry who attacked me.

-What about Brian? -Ooh, or Chelsea?

I had eyes on Chelsea the entire time.

She didn't leave the dining room till the fire alarm went off.

Which was after Wayne was killed.

Right, listen, when I went into Wayne's room the second time,

that room had been ransacked.

It sounds like the killer was looking

for the stolen jewelry, too.

Well, he probably got the key off Wayne on the stairs,

where we found the slider.

He'd have put up a fight.

Though not necessarily a very effective one.

So did the killer intend to murder this

Wayne chap, or was it just about gaining access to his room?

Well, listen to this. Bill told me that Ronnie Black

had brutally attacked two fellow inmates.

And he was released from prison a fortnight ago.

-So surely he's up there -- -Hold that thought!

Sorry, so much been going on that

I'd almost forgot about this.

I couldn't get into my writing yesterday,

so I did some investigating.

This is Ronnie Black at his trial.

Hold on.

I think I recognize him.

Silver car, lurking outside the hotel the day we arrived.

Black fluffy dice hanging from his rear-view mirror!

Very retro.

-Whoa. -Oh, okay, you need to rest.

Yeah, she's right, Agatha. Come on.

Okay, okay, Nurse Ratched, you win.

Have a word with Harry.

You two, see what you can find out about Ronnie Black

and his fluffy dice.

So you don't get bored.

Hi there.

Sir Charles Fraith.

Pleasure to meet you, Ms. Shaw.

How can I help you gentlemen?

We're looking for Harry.

Well, that makes three of us.

He should've started work an hour ago.

And he's not answering his phone.

Could we have his address?

I...

I know it's terribly cheeky of us,

but it's super important that we speak with him.

Okay.

Have you seen this man?

No dice.

You reckon the killer set off the fire alarm?

Well, I mean, it makes sense.

Probably heard me scream.

Figured Wayne's body had been found pretty sharpish

and wanted the hotel emptied

while they looked for the jewelry.

No more weird freak outs when confronted by the dead.

I mean, what on earth possessed you to bring a woman like

Agatha to a place like Snot-on-Sea?

Snoth's history is a big part of my new book.

Some people find the town charming.

You really don't know her at all, do you, Lacey?

Give me that.

Hello.

Yes, this is she.

Oh.

Now you want to talk to me, do you?

Oh, okay, okay.

Well, I will be down in 15 minutes.

Okay, just, just...

That was Brian Jankers. Wants to talk to me.

Got something important to tell me.

What about your head?

Oh, it's fine. 100 percent better now.

Probably just low blood sugar. Look, here we go.

All sorted. Ting!

One wobble, and it's back to bed.

Jimmy and Manolo really would not approve.

I'm gonna get changed in the bathroom.

Would you call that silver or grey?

Dark slate. Oh, look! An ice cream van.

Roy! We're in the middle of a manhunt.

Yeah, so we show the sketch to the ice cream man, or woman.

You never know, Ronnie Black might have fancied a Mr. Whippy.

I left my, uh, bear costume in the staff room.

So, I guess the killer must have swiped it.

Do many people have access?

Well, it's rarely locked, so, yes, lots.

How come you're not at work?

Marcia relies on me a bit too heavily.

I just needed a day off.

Saveloy?

Hangover cure of the gods.

No thanks.

Think I should go lolly or cone?

Roy! He's seen him!

-When? -Just now!

He said he went that way.

Oh?

Yeah.

Obviously running a bit late.

Twelve o'clock.

Look.

That's our boy.

Oh?

Hello.

We've located the bandit.

The bandit?

Oh! The Bandit, yes!

Uh, where?

-Snoth Pier. -He's aged quite a bit.

Shhh!

He's on the move. We're following him.

Listen, you keep your distance.

The man is dangerous.

The Bandit has entered The Palace.

Coast is clear.

You go.

He's heading down to the basement.

We'll follow him. Over and out.

Oh.

Right.

I need you to stay here and wait for Brian Jankers.

I don't even know what he looks like.

Uh, mm...

Put upon.

And angry about it.

That's it?

Yes, that's it.

I'm just waiting for someone.

Shh!

He went in there.

What am I supposed to do with this?

You could use that as a helmet.

Oh, moody.

Spread out.

Really? Look where we are.

It reeks of the last place you'll ever see.

Whereas there's safety in numbers.

You'll be fine.

You have a bucket.

Shhh, shhh, shhh, shhh, shhh!

Mr. Black?

Ronnie?

The Bandit is here!

Whoa!

At least this time it wasn't a guest.
