He does a quick debrief and assigns Ruby and JP to talk to the staff that was at the launch. I feel like Parker is going to be Poole levels of "I hate this heat". (Parker records the interviews, too, so that's definitely his thing.)
Parker and Madeleine interview the people of interest: the parents, the husband and the room service guy who was there when the husband broke down the doors only to find his wife dead. He agrees to stay until they've got the killer. if a little annoying.Ĭommissioner: I look forward to seeing the brilliant side. Parker (shaking his head):Ĭommissioner: She said you were quite brilliant. He informs Parker that he talked to Parker's supervisor who agrees that if Parker thinks it's murder, he should do the investigation. He doesn't even let her get a full sentence out because he really, really needs to go back to the airport and oh look, that's his taxi now. Good luck."Īfter a few seconds of everyone going "wtf is that supposed to mean?" Madeleine runs after Parker because the Commissioner wants to talk to him. He also can't really say how it happened, but hey, "this is now a case for your murder squad. So, Parker says he can't confirm it's a suicide. Parker: Why put in a mouth guard when you're planning on killing yourself? Parker picks up the mouth guard from the bathroom counter and opens it. He checks the bathroom in total and concludes that it looks like the woman must have killed herself.Įveryone: Good, yes. He finds the broken lock on the hotel room door, a packet of pills on the nightstand and, in the bathroom, the broken lock on that door. The team is a little sceptical of him so far: Parker's only really there to confirm this and release the body to be transported back to Manchester. He literally starts the case by recording the pertinent details: such as, Commissioner Patterson concluded it was a suicide. So straight away it appears that Parker's gimmick is going to be his dictaphone. wow, he really makes sure he gets every single nook and cranny, doesn't he?įirst meeting seems a bit awkward, but okay so far.Ĭut to the crime scene from the night before. I, too, would be a little uncomfortable in a Caribbean climate.)Īnyway, here's your first look at the new guy:Īnyway, Parker pulls out sunscreen and. Our weather is pretty much the same, so I emphasise. The team laugh and they immediately know: yes, this is the new one fresh from gloomy Britain. His first few minutes are quite funny: he walks out of the airport and into the brilliant sunshine and does a great vampire impression by rearing back out of the Caribbean sun and into the shade. But how?Ĭut to the team standing around at the airport, waiting for the new guy: DI Neville Parker. But this is Death in Paradise, so she was clearly murdered. Obvious answer: the woman killed herself. The door to the hotel room is locked with a chain and the bathroom door has a bolt on it (locked, of course).
So, we have a classic locked room mystery.
A bit later, back in the conference room, the father says that their table is ready so the husband goes upstairs to get his wife for dinner and - dun dun dun! Guess who's dead in the bathtub? In the hotel room, the woman closes the curtains. They don't really seem like they're not getting along, but if she dies, he's still the main suspect. The husband stays because he's the head of sales and needs to work the crowd and sell stuff. The daughter heads up to the hotel room along, claiming jetlag. Neither of them look really happy to be there. I'm guessing the daughter or son-in-law die because they're the ones with speaking roles so far and they've both been a little shady. The head honcho is a guy who's there with his wife, adult daughter and son in law. We open with a party where a bunch of rich people (I assume) are launching another timeshare luxury apartment.
