John was trying to be mad at James for something but Lucy wouldn’t let him.

She’s right though. James doesn’t need an address book to know where he used to live.

Is Lucy high on drugs? What does she mean by he shouldn’t go to any murder scene?

Has she forgotten that he is pretending to be the Detective Chief Inspector? She is being unreasonable.

Lucy is quite self-centred. She dishes out instructions for John to follow without understanding the situation she has thrust him into.

Even though John is still terrible at parking, he did better this time.

The car was parked vertically, instead of horizontally like the last time.

So Neville was transferred because of some “Sinclair business” and Carter came highly recommended.

That should be the clue to the Norse code of a book James left behind.

This scene is too funny.

So just because Lucy told him to focus on “cracking the notebook’s code”, John is out here pretending to type so as not to handle cases for the day.

We’ll see how long that lasts.

Less than two seconds.

DI Carter told John that a woman whose husband had been missing for a while called her to deliver a cryptic message in the middle of the night.

Being that James is missing and his notebook is a hieroglyphic; John got curious.

Lucy went to Neville’s home to take pictures from outside the window.

But some guy came to ask if she was interested.

Turns out Neville moved out despite paying his rent in full. We know that he was transferred based on what DCS Shaw said.

Also, his things are still inside the flat.

If he was truly transferred, why is his property still in a flat he doesn’t live in? He has to be in hiding because he knows something.

Or is Neville in jail?

Lucy is a mental case. The man, whom I presume is the estate agent asked, “Who are you?” and my girl lied that she was a PI, then his sister and finally…

Anything but the truth.

Lucy needs to calm down. I know she wants to find her husband but she made John impersonate a police officer.

The least she could do was understand that he was trying to act the part, convincingly. Aggressively closing the case file won’t bring James back any faster.

Lucy honey, let’s not get carried away.

Henry just said something I wasn’t thinking about. What if the people James thinks are looking for him actually find him?

Aww, Henry has been keeping to himself because he thinks his father is dead.

Poor boy, you’re going to have to hold on to your mother’s faith that Daddy is still alive.

At least until a year passes.

Oh Lord, not Lucy angry at a possibly dead man.

What if Neville and his wife were murdered? Or he was actually transferred and had to leave with his wife?

Think Lucy! Stop jumping to “my husband doesn’t trust me” conclusions.

So the day before, John wrote a phone number on his wrist with a marker and the next day it is still there.

John, say the truth: did you have your bath this morning?

No judgement. I just want to know why the number didn’t clean off.

John thinks the missing man was murdered.

His employees were paying him 500 pounds to be employed and to get a share of the profits.

I’m sorry but isn’t that an MLM?

DI Carter is such a fanboy for John.

And I love it!

Never mind, I spoke too soon.

John was about to spill all his secrets to DI Carter when Chief Constable Ziegler called Carter.

DI Carter answered the call and turned to John to say “Niece”. Unaware of the fact that John saw his phone screen.

Dude, how is your “niece” a middle-aged white man?

John ain’t shit for this.

Lucy was at the office to see John and show him something she discovered in the notebook.

Guess who was upstairs watching them?

This woman again: Holly.
Is she a spy?

They found the missing man’s body.

The owner of the manor killed him and locked him up. He probably defrauded her and she retaliated.

Yep!

I honestly don’t feel bad for him. He had it coming.

John doesn’t think she was the killer. I’m going to go on a whim and guess that the killer was the drunk driver guy.

This one

Fingers crossed I am correct

She confessed…

I was wrong. Wow.

They all did it. Well, they pushed him by mistake while the older lady, the owner of the manor, helped them conceal the body.

The scammer’s poor widow. Once she saw John and Russell Carter, she knew her husband was dead.

Sinclair was a murder case. The murder happened a certain way and James was in charge of the case. However, the case entry was changed by Chief Constable Ziegler to something else.

This means that CORRUPTION was likely the reason for James and Neville’s disappearance.

Maybe Ziegler was paid to look the other way.
