So, this is where you'll be standing.
Jack, if you could just move out the way, please. Thank you.
And then we'll begin with the vows.
Where's the bride?
The one good thing about getting married on a ship, old boy,
you're never more than 1,000 feet from your bride.
She'll be here. She was at the spa.
Er... Ella!
Any ideas where she's got to?
Let me check the schedule. Yes.
Her highlights, lowlights, manicure, pedicure, massage and waxing
were due to be finished by now.
She needed a lot of waxing.
I don't believe it. Worm? Oh, it's you!
Ah!
Oh! Hi.
Worm?
Oh, my schoolmates thought it was hilarious. Bookworm.
You and Cecile went to school together?
She was never out of the library.
And look at you now. I love the outfit. Erm...
What are you doing here? I'm first officer.
Second-in-charge of the ship. Oh.
Places, please.
Promise me you'll come to the hen do tomorrow,
we can have a proper catch-up.
Oh, no, I can't, I'm working. It's...
Didn't you say you were off for two days, Worm?
Let's check with Captain Jameson. Where is he? No, no, no.
Er, yes, I remember, you're right. Thank you for reminding me.
Looks like I can make it.
Perfect.
Yay!
I am so gonna get you back for that. Mm-hm.
# Going on an adventure
# And I've got a feeling The sun's gonna shine
# Shine, the sun's gonna shine
# I'm in love with the ocean
# And I got a feeling I'm singing tonight
# Tonight, sing tonight
# It's because of you
# That I'll always remember
# Going on an adventure With you on my mind
# Going on an adventure With you on my mind. #
Ice sculptures shaped like swans, remember?
£650 each. Mm-hm.
And the centrepiece flowers?
Oh, they have to be lily of the valley.
It matches my perfume.
Gorgeous (!)
Jack, is the full band accompanying you for the first dance?
Er, as long as it doesn't cost extra.
This wedding is a fortune.
More importantly, what's the craic with the stag?
Can't have the ladies here having all the fun.
What you thinking?
How's about you show us the sights tomorrow?
And by the sights, I mean the bars.
Leave me to it.
Sorry, darling, calls to make. Evan can stand in for me. Bye.
If Evan can stand.
How's about me and you take a dander round the ship,
and you can show me your starboard?
I would rather jump ship and swim with the sharks.
Excuse me.
'This is Beverley, your cruise director.
'I'd like to inform all passengers
'that the ship has now arrived in Palma,
'the gateway to the beautiful island of Mallorca.
'For those wishing to disembark, please make your way to deck five.'
Hasta luego, and enjoy your day.
Near gales forecast for the Balearics.
We'll need to rework the voyage plan to avoid the worst of it.
Already done it.
Should we have dinner later? I can't.
I have to go to this hen do. Woodsy?
A moment of your time? Yes, Captain.
Kate.
I hope you haven't let yourself get too distracted
with all this amateur sleuthing.
I wouldn't dream of it, Captain. Good to hear.
Especially with the staff captain's post on the horizon.
Eyes on the prize, sir.
Because you're not the only candidate on board.
Really? Um...
Who... Who else has applied for it?
First officer de Vreese.
Nothing wrong with some healthy competition, hm?
But what about Villas Escenicas?
'Trust me, it will all be fine.
'We just need more money to make...'
There is no more money, I've told you that.
Just leave it, thanks.
You need to stick to our agreement, end of story.
Ready, girls?
Cheers, everyone. Three, two, one.
Do you hate hen dos as much as me? Mm.
If I never go to one again, it'll be too soon.
Not to mention baby-sitting the boss's princess of a fiancee.
Hey. You need some boppers.
Ella, you forgot Worm. Oh, I mean, Kate.
No, no, honestly, it's fine. I'm...
Oh, OK, great. There we are.
That's lovely. Perfect.
So, have you got yourself a nice man, then?
Yes. We work together on the bridge, actually.
The tall Belgian guy, Piers. Oh, trust you to snare such a catch.
You know, I never told you this before,
but I used to really look up to you at school.
No. Yeah, it's true.
You were always so career-driven,
never needed a boyfriend, not like me.
I always had to have one on my arm. Saved the best till last, though.
Where did you and Charlie meet?
In Dubai. He was on holiday there.
I tripped over his feet on the way to the dance floor,
and we have never been apart since then.
And Ella's been like a sister
since she started working for Charlie.
We need to get to the restaurant.
Come on, ladies. Finish your Orgasms, let's go.
This man here is gonna make me a fortune.
Property. Luxury villas, use them six weeks of the year,
the rest of the time, rent them out.
You should get involved, tell him about the profit.
Based on a 60% occupation rate,
you'll still make a substantial profit on a deposit of just 20k.
Oh, let's not talk shop, boys, it's meant to be a stag do.
Fair play. Here, slainte, lads!
Slainte!
When was the last time we partied like this?
Here, was it Dubai? Yep.
Winter sun. Lads holiday.
Well, it was meant to be, then your man met Cecile,
did not see him for dust.
And here we are five months later.
Aye, Cecile got her claws in quickly, there.
I've barely seen you since.
Right, another round.
Stop that van!
Jack, I almost caught up with the van. It just...
It got away from me.
Of course. Any sign of trouble, and DI Grayling is right there.
Well, the pleasure is always mine. You two know each other?
Yeah, Luciana and me go a long way back.
The police driving course in London.
Should've seen her in the blues and twos,
like she was racing in the Grand Prix. OK.
As lovely as this reunion is... Heard you left the job?
News travels fast.
Yeah, I am a singer these days, on the cruises.
That's what brings you to Palma?
We could talk about the kidnapping.
Black Ford transit van, licence plate, K 4914 VQR.
Two kidnappers, both male, one around my height,
the other one, I'm guessing, is a little bit taller.
Gracias.
Plenty of CCTV to follow up.
Just in case this senorita is mistaken.
Any other witnesses, Jack?
Yes, Ella Jones, and she's just over there.
Miss Jones... Wait, she's just been maced directly in the face.
Shall we make sure she's OK first? Shouldn't I be the judge of that?
Maybe it's best if we take Ella back to the ship,
we can get Dr Tan to check her out, yeah?
Miguel. Por favor.
Please, we will take care of you.
My colleague will get her statement when she's had medical attention.
Jack. Are you coming?
Actually, do you have a moment?
All right, Ella, come with me.
So, the bride goes missing.
First person I need to speak to is the groom.
Why would anyone take Cecile? I mean, it's crazy.
What if they've hurt her? What if she's...?
Look, calm down. Calm down. Right?
Three sugars. It's good for shock. So's a whiskey.
Let's start at the beginning.
Do you have any family or friends in Palma? No.
What about your property business? You must have contacts there.
You have a business? Here in Palma?
I just dipped my toe into the property world,
building a couple of villas, nothing big.
And you have someone selling these for you?
Ad hoc estate agents, different one every week.
It's all going well, no issues so far.
And no disagreements with customers? None at all.
Does Cecile have any ties to your business?
When we met, she was a beautician.
She's not remotely interested in my business.
And your relationship? No problems?
She's the love of my life.
I need to let the guests know what's happened.
Is it OK if I go now?
Let me know if you hear anything.
Mr O'Donnell, not so fast.
If I could just ask you a few questions?
I think I'm still in shock.
One minute we're walking down the street,
and the next I get pepper spray in my eyes.
Charlie must be so worried.
He seems like a really nice guy.
Have you worked for him for long? Um... Four months or so.
He's a great boss. I only deal with the UK side of the business.
Suits me, less to do.
You get on with Cecile? Yeah.
Though she can be demanding.
Charlie can never do enough for her.
Hm. Well, she seemed like she didn't have a care in the world today.
She did say one thing, though. It's probably nothing.
Right?
She said she hoped Charlie would be less angry once they got married.
Something about wanting the old Charlie back.
I've told you, I barely know Cecile.
Charlie is certainly kept on a tight leash.
Well, it sounds like you're not much of a fan of hers.
He's always working.
Mind you, he needs to, the credit card bills she piles up.
She racks up debt?
Cecile likes the finer things in life,
and Charlie is determined to keep her in the manner in which
she certainly has become accustomed to.
At all costs.
Do you know how much even one of her handbags cost?
No wonder the poor fella's stressed all the time.
OK, thank you. We're done here.
Anything else, you know where I am.
The pleasure's all mine.
The plate number Kate gave us. Did it check out?
Turns out the licence plate is fake. No surprises there.
There's CCTV showing the van exiting the freeway,
but so far, no shots of where it has ended up.
Whoever's taken Cecile's got to be in touch soon, wanting money.
You know as well as I do that the first 48 hours are crucial.
If they don't make contact by then...
Then the chances of getting her back are slim.
Why would anyone want to kidnap Cecile?
Because Charlie doesn't come across as rich.
And the best man who clearly can't stand the bride.
Yeah, but he and the groom were with us the whole morning.
So, could Cecile have enemies?
Well, she is a beautician, it's hardly a dangerous field.
And she's never been to Palma.
It's gotta be someone who's local,
who can get their hands on a van, somewhere to hide her.
Well, look, kidnappings are always about cash, right?
Hm-mm. And Charlie was about to throw the wedding of all weddings.
Beverly mentioned that he hadn't paid for it yet.
Even though she sent the bill twice.
Plus, Evan said Cecile is spending money like water.
Yes, I did hear him having an argument on the phone yesterday.
Something about Villas Escenicas and some guy wanting more money,
but Charlie refused.
He mentioned Villas at the stag do.
Evan seemed to think they were a sure-fire way to make money.
Hm.
They've even got their own website.
"Luxury villas in Palma."
I mean, he told Perez that business was booming.
Not according to the disgruntled customers,
if these comments are anything to go by.
Listen to this from the Cullens.
"We want our deposits returned
"for a holiday villa we bought in good faith
"that has never materialised."
Sounds like a bit of a scam to me. Hm.
Fancy a trip?
Welcome, welcome, Mr and Mrs Duvall, si? Ah-ha.
Nelson Raposo. We spoke on the phone.
It's Kev, and this is, er...
Pam, the old ball and chain.
You all right, mate?
No need for formalities!
Let me introduce you to Villa Escenicas.
They are the highest quality.
Can we not see one that's finished?
They will be ready before you know it. My team are muy rapido.
The best.
A beautiful location, too.
Very handy for the airport.
Have you two, er, any bambinos?
Yeah, three. Yeah, two.
We've one on the way.
They are gonna love the pool.
Ah.
Builders, eh? What can you do?
So the developers who bought the land first,
you're working closely with them?
Si, si. We have the planning permission agreed.
Nothing can spoil the view.
Ah, that's lovely.
I can smell the garden already.
I love it, Kev. Ah.
Oh, excuse me, senora.
Yes, I can't talk. I...
OK. You need to relax.
There are no problems. I will meet you.
I'll be there.
And how do I know it'll be finished on time?
Or at all? It's still at phase one.
It will be ready in two months.
Or you get a price reduction. Oh! All in the contract.
Does the master bedroom have an ensuite?
Si, si, it will have.
Oh. I mean, it's just... There's so much space,
isn't there? So much space.
It's massive.
You call me later, yes?
Hm-mm. Let me know.
Can I say, you two look a happy couple.
Aw.
Everyone says that, lad, don't they?
They do. Yeah!
That Nelson's as dodgy as they come.
There were plenty of builders.
It didn't look like they were doing much work, though.
So much for the planning permission.
Perez says the water authority denied permission
for any villas to be built full stop.
So they're selling half-done villas
that they know will never be finished?
I mean, it's no wonder Nelson looked on edge
when you mentioned developers.
Look, why don't you head back to the ship?
Keep your eyes peeled. I'll ask Jamil to meet me at Bar Vos.
Let's see who turns up to meet Nelson.
Jamieson said what a good job I did
bringing the ship alongside this morning.
Oh, lucky you.
Next time maybe we could say toss a coin for it.
Playing fair for a change, are we?
You've been off with me.
Want to tell me what this is all about?
The staff captain's job.
I know that you applied for it.
The captain asked if I wanted to apply for it.
I was going to discuss it with you, but...
But you didn't.
I've barely seen you away from the bridge.
You've been spending all your time with Jack Grayling.
Or maybe you wanted to be first in line for the job.
I would never go behind your back!
I'm honest as the very long summer day.
If you don't mind, some of us have got work to do.
Jack. What took you?
I had cabins to clean!
Right, the guy in the navy shirt with the stubble.
Navy shirt, stubble. Right.
Let me know who he's with and what they're talking about.
They won't even know I'm there.
OK, OK, OK.
Hey. He's in there with Charlie's best man. Evan.
Did you hear what they were saying?
I couldn't get close enough, but Evan seemed very angry.
He never mentioned that he knew any of Charlie's business colleagues.
Charlie? Hi.
What?
Calm down, mate.
Look, I'll be there, yeah?
I've gotta go. Let me know what happens.
OK.
'Charlie, please,
'please, please,
'give them the money.
'I just wanna come back to you.
'Don't let me die.'
How am I supposed to get that kind of money together?
Well, with all the villas you've sold,
it must add up to a fair bit.
I've got building costs coming out of my ears.
So why have none of them been built? They are mid-build.
They should be finished in... Two months, phase one.
Yeah, we heard that from Nelson Raposo,
the friendly estate agent.
But that isn't true, is it?
Because the water authority denied their planning agreement...
two months ago.
So you've been selling the villas knowing they'll never be built
and keeping the deposits.
I had no idea that this was going to happen.
Why should we believe a word you say?
I swear on Cecile's life.
I went into business with a property company out here,
and it all looked great on paper.
I quoted the UK customers, collected the deposits,
THEY did the viewings.
The guy, yeah, Nelson, he was the project manager here,
and he tells me that the water company changed their minds,
but all these people own is a dry patch of wasteland.
But he swore we'd get planning.
We even did to begin with, and then...
I need the cash back to refund all the people who are suing me.
And Cecile knew all about this?
Told her at the start of the cruise, said that if Nelson didn't cough up,
I'd likely lose everything I've worked for.
She was so supportive, and...
..then she's kidnapped.
You need to tell the police.
The video said no police. No, Perez'll be able to h...
Do me for fraud?
It'll be my word against Nelson's.
They'll think that we were in on it together.
Maybe we shouldn't tell Perez...
..for Cecile's sake.
I need to make a withdrawal.
Yeah. Jack.
How's it going, fella? Huh, bit of a crawl, is it?
Thought I saw you earlier at Bar Vos.
Nelson Raposo, you know him? Never heard of him.
Ah, that's a bit of a coincidence, then,
turning up at the same bar at the same time
with the exact bloke that sells Charlie's villas.
Heard the pair of you got into a bit of a fight.
Listen, why don't you just stick to your show tunes
and keep your nose out of it, all right, mate?
Evan. Where the hell have you been?
Cecile was right.
You are a waste of space.
All because she chose me that night and not you.
Charlie, mate, don't start this again, OK?
That's why you don't even care that she's missing
cos you're jealous! Hey...
You always have been! Charlie! Charlie.
Come on.
This is the guy you met at the villas?
Two sugars, right?
Yes, that's the guy that we met.
Turns out he has several aliases.
Nelson Raposo is just one of them.
Spent four years in prison for fraud.
We've got an APB out on him, but his phone is disconnected,
and he's not at his home, in any event.
Charlie claims he knows nothing about this.
It happens all the time here.
Developers believe they're funding villas
in partnership with local companies, getting insider knowledge,
but really, they know all along that planning won't go through.
One giant con,
leaving guys like Charlie dealing with the consequences.
Any good news?
Well, they found the van, burnt out in the north of the city,
but we managed to get prints, gave us the name Juan Martin.
He's a non-petty criminal for hire, record as long as your arm.
They've just picked him up for questioning.
Heard anything from Charlie?
No, sorry. Nothing.
Well, we just have to say a prayer that Juan will know where Nelson is.
Still no Charlie? He's cutting it a bit fine.
Jack? Oh, I'm starving.
I should have bought me...
You legend!
My dad used to say, "Always carry a spare snack.
"That way, if you get stuck out on the boat longer than anticipated,
"you've got the energy to get back." Oh.
I think the only advice my old man ever gave to me
was to become a cop.
Probably because he was one.
I thought you loved being in the force.
Grew to.
But ever since I was knee-high, all I ever wanted to do was sing.
Thought I was Elvis, you know, dancing around, hairbrush in hand.
Oh-ho.
But in my house, it was always,
"You need to earn a proper living, son."
Mm.
I think my dad wished I was a boy.
Spent most of my life trying to prove I was as good as one.
He used to take me out sailing on the tiniest boat.
But I made sure that there wasn't a wind
that I couldn't navigate or a knot that I couldn't tie.
That's when I felt closest to him.
Just the two of us.
Sound of the ocean.
Sounds like a man after my own heart.
He died before I became an officer.
Bet he was proud of you anyway.
It's Charlie. Hm?
Who's that?
Why the hell are you here? To get the ransom money.
We saw him with Nelson or whatever his name is.
They planned the whole kidnap to get it.
And that's how Nelson knew exactly where to pick up Cecile
from the hen do because you told him.
Ella said you always follow Cecile and Charlie round.
And you couldn't bear that she chose Charlie over you...
and you made Charlie pay.
Kate, call the police. What are youse on?
I met Nelson to get my money back
because I didn't wanna lose the 20k I invested,
and I gave him a right going over.
But you ended up in the middle of a ransom handover by accident?
I'm here because he asked me to be.
I'm sorry, mate. I didn't wanna let you down again.
But I didn't write that.
Then who did?
The money.
It's gone.
You think you can be the eyes and ears needed for a handover?
It could have led us to where Cecile is.
If we don't get her back in one piece, this is on your head.
Look, the ransom video...
Should have been given to me the minute you got it.
It's my fault, OK?
Charlie didn't want to involve the police,
and I asked Jack not to contact you,
so if you are looking for someone to blame, blame me.
Look, I'll send over the video right now. Hm?
We'll try and pull CCTV,
but it looks like Nelson's got away with the money
right under your nose.
They'll release Cecile, won't they? Now they've got the money.
Well, we hope so, unless we find her first.
One of the drivers has given us the exact place
he dropped Cecile and Nelson off.
We've got teams out now combing the area.
You best get back to the ships and your yacht.
If you hear anything...
Look, I'll call you. Scout's honour.
They won't keep Cecile now you've paid them.
I should've known that the whole deal
was too good to be true.
Wish I hadn't been so bloody greedy
when Ella suggested properties abroad.
What, Ella?
She told us she was just across your UK business.
What? She's across everything.
Been worth her weight in gold since she started with me four months ago.
Cecile knew instantly, said she gave the best interview.
So she'll have been in touch with Nelson?
So much for not knowing him either.
We need to get back to the ship and find her. Mm.
What are you doing, my friend?
Ella wrote the note.
She got Evan to show up as a distraction
while she grabbed the cash.
I can't believe I didn't see this coming.
She could be anywhere by now.
'I just wanna come back to you.
'Don't let me die.'
Hey.
CCTV shows that Ella left the ship at exactly 11:31,
just enough time to get the cash.
You've watched that, like, a million times.
Got more flowers than I can shake a stick at.
The bloody ice swans are melting
and still no signs of the bill being paid.
I never could stand Lily of the Valley.
How Cecile wore that for a perfume every day I'll never know.
Jack.
That scent that I could smell at the villas,
that wasn't the gardens - that was Cecile.
Listen to this.
Planes.
I thought we were going to be together after all this was over?
This was a business arrangement only.
Plans change. You can't leave.
Watch me. Cecile?
Cecile, wait!
Cecile?
Charlie.
I got away.
Don't believe a word she says.
She's leaving... with your money.
But...
Ella, what's with you...? I don't understand.
Look, they planned this thing together back in Dubai.
Saw you as their next target.
They hadn't even met then.
No, they had.
At the hen party, I saw Ella's phone with a picture of them together
years before you knew either of them.
And that's why Cecile insisted on interviewing assistants with you.
Ella was her choice, right?
She set you up, Charlie.
Cecile didn't bump into you by accident.
It was all carefully planned.
But they hadn't banked on Nelson fleecing you first.
When they found out on the cruise you were going to lose everything
on this Palma property deal,
Ella, knowing Nelson had bribed the water company,
blackmailed him into a kidnap plot.
Ella told him exactly where the hen do was,
and Cecile invited Kate, so she had the perfect witness.
We need to get to the restaurant.
Cecile was carefully hidden at the villa,
making sure she wasn't around when we visited.
Ella then planted suspicion on Evan,
making out like he was obsessed with Cecile,
using him as a distraction at the ransom drop-off
so she could make off with all the cash.
Cecile waiting for Ella to divvy up all the cash...
..and then disappear for good.
Was any of it real?
Did you ever have any feelings for me at all?
I'm sorry.
Come on, Charlie. Let's get a drink, mate.
Nobody is going anywhere.
Cecile Ray, I'm placing you under arrest for suspicion of fraud.
Jack Grayling. Should have known.
Always gets the guy in the end.
Old habits die hard, I guess. Well, maybe I would too.
How about a drink?
To celebrate.
I'm... I'm sorry. Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Don't be. I just...
..can't. I mean, much as I'd like to.
I get it.
Your heart belongs elsewhere.
It's written all over your face.
I gotta get back to the station.
You take care, carino. Si?
You too, Luciana.
You too.
Hey. I need a favour.
I've a passenger who wants serenading on deck this evening,
special occasion.
I've got show to do, Piers.
They insisted on you. Said only the best would do.
Anything to keep my passengers happy.
Sundeck. Shall we say... seven o'clock?
How much longer?
A special occasion?
Kate...
..I believe a strong will takes us through the grey storm.
My career, yes, it is important to me,
but nothing is as important to me, Kate...
..as you.
Will you do me the honour...
..of becoming my wife?
Yes.
Yes, I'll marry you.

Welcome to our first global poker tournament.
It's is a $1 million game. Tell us about these high rollers.
Nikolai Volkov. Beelzebub. Lee "Dead-Eye" Stannard.

Do you think one of the players could have done this?
You know what they say. What happens at sea stays at sea.
Feeling lucky? I'm always lucky, baby.
This tournament is terminated.
He lost everything on a hand of cards.
Enough.
The game gets to some people like that.
I see you all in hell!
