At the beginning of the story, Gilbert Ball's voiceover slowly sounded, telling us about his podcasting career and a mysterious woman named Dove.
At this moment, Dove was in the apartment, anxiously looking for a man named Ketke.Unexpectedly, she found Ketke hanging from the ceiling. This scene was shocking.Just as she was about to flee in panic, a man wearing a devil mask suddenly blocked her way.However, the man was simply looking for a Halloween party by mistake and did not pose any threat to her.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye we are in the future.At this moment, Dove has devoted herself to the work of the Guardian.While investigating a case, she was surprised to find that the hanged corpse was her former informant.Her editor warned her to keep a low profile and leave the city as soon as possible.In order to allow her to escape the limelight for a while, the editor arranged a new assignment for her-to travel to Ireland to co-produce a true crime podcast with Gilbert.
At the airport, Gilbert was having a heated conversation with Amy.Amy is an excellent researcher at the Guardian and is looking forward to this collaboration.Gilbert was equally enthusiastic, but Dove seemed a little distracted.
The trio then arrived in Cone and were driven to their destination by designated driver Sean.Gilbert reveals to Sean that the purpose of their trip is to uncover the mystery behind Samhain.This is a mystery that has plagued the town for 25 years.On the legendary "Night of the Dead" in Ireland, three people who did not know each other mysteriously disappeared and their whereabouts are still unknown.Now, as the town prepares for its Samhain celebrations, Gilbert sees a rare opportunity to add a touch of mystery to his podcast.
On the way, they stopped at a picturesque place to rest.Gilbert asks Sean about a man he saw on a billboard.Sean casually calls him “Shit Pants”, a local who once went to Silicon Valley to work in Silicon Valley and now returns to his hometown with a huge amount of cash.He now runs a server farm nearby and leads a peaceful and prosperous life.
As the car slowly drove into the village, the team met two elderly locals - Barry and another unnamed man.Gilbert enthusiastically introduced his podcasting career to them and asked about the three people who disappeared 25 years ago.Barry speculated that it might be related to the tsunami, or inextricably linked to the legendary “Stone” (the legendary place where elves live).
Eventually, they arrived at Mrs. O'Shea's residence, which would be their home for the next few days.Dove explores around the house and unexpectedly encounters a wolf.She panicked and asked Mrs O'Shea if she had a dog, but the woman denied it.Fortunately, the wolf did not attack, but quietly left from the window.
Amy reminded Gilbert that if they wanted to get to Albu Hollow on time for the interview, they had to leave quickly.After hearing the news, Mrs. O'Shea began to behave strangely, but they had no idea why.
In El Buhoro, they finally met Dara, the owner of this land.A group of people stood next to the mysterious stone, which is where the Samhain Festival is held in the town. It is also the place where the three missing people last appeared many years ago.
As night fell, the team members gathered in a bar to discuss the progress of the case.From the conversation, they learned that one of the missing persons was named Malachi O'Connor.In addition, a boy also disappeared mysteriously, but Amy was unable to find any information about him.
While Amy and Gilbert were immersed in analyzing the case, Dove was silently checking her phone.Suddenly, a look of surprise appeared on her face - she saw a piece of news about the death of the whistleblower.Realizing that this might be related to their case, she immediately summoned her teammates to another bar, hoping to get more clues about the case from there.As they were talking to the locals, a strong man named Teddy suddenly stood up and began to sing an Irish song affectionately.The atmosphere in the bar instantly became solemn and solemn, and everyone listened quietly to this song full of stories.
Gilbert tried to communicate with the thoughtful Teddy, but the other person seemed to be immersed in his own world and had no interest in talking.Later, Gilbert meets Sims by chance and reveals to him his Irish heritage.He mentioned his great-grandfather, Michael Ball, a man from County Cork.Simms smiled playfully and told Gilbert that Michael was a thief who stole land from his grandfather.However, Sims's smile soon turned to friendliness, and it turned out that he was just kidding Gilbert.
Across the street, Dove meets a mysterious man who claims to hold the truth behind the Samhain disappearances.He claims that the missing persons were attacked by horses, but when he mentions the bizarre experience of witnessing a horse transform into a woman, Dove immediately senses his absurdity.Not long after, she caught a glimpse of the mysterious wolf again, and she couldn't help but wonder: What was the connection between this wolf and her?
The next morning, Gilbert spoke on the phone with his wife, who was far away at home, and the two discussed their current financial struggles.After hanging up the phone, Gilbert had breakfast with Amy.Amy tells him that she can't reach Sean, which means they won't have a driver when they head to the police station.
Meanwhile, Dove decides to investigate on her own.She asked a store owner for directions to Portola Road, where Sean lived, but the owner seemed indifferent to her inquiry.Despite this, Dove used her perseverance to find Sean's home, but he was nowhere to be found.As she was looking around outside the house, Sims suddenly appeared in her sight, acting strangely.Dove quickly hides, and Sims is seen trying to call Sean's number, but no one answers.
On the other side, Gilbert and Amy came to the police station and met with Officer Ball.The police officer assured them that Ireland was not as crime-ridden as other places.However, when Amy mentioned the mysterious “Disappeared Delta Incident”, the police officer's face became solemn.He became emotional when talking about the missing people, insisting that the disappearances had nothing to do with Samhain.The officer relented slightly when Gilbert revealed they had the same last name, but he was still curious about their relationship.
In Dove's shots, we see her quietly stalking Sims through the streets and alleys of the city.Eventually, she followed Sims to a secluded cliffside.Sims is seen holding flowers in his hands and lovingly scattering them into the sea.Dove's heart was full of doubts. She didn't know what story was hidden behind these flowers.
Soon after, Sims discovered Dove's presence.He didn't appear surprised or angry, but spoke to her calmly.He tells Dove that she doesn't have to go to such trouble to track him.When the conversation turned to Gilbert's podcast, Sims suddenly became emotional.He warned Dove: “Let the past be the past.” Listening to his words, Dove felt an inexplicable feeling of familiarity in her heart. She seemed to recognize Sims from somewhere.
Shortly after Sims left, Dove walked down the path alone.Suddenly, she sensed a dangerous aura - a car was quietly following her.She quickened her pace in an attempt to escape pursuit, but the car was hot on her heels.Finally, around a corner, the car suddenly accelerated and hit her.Dove instantly lost consciousness.
At the same time, Gilbert and Amy were busy in the police station.Amy takes a document from the officer's office that she thinks may be relevant to their case.The two decided to return to their residence immediately and tell Dove this important clue.
However, when they returned to the residence, they discovered that Dove was not in the room.An uneasy premonition filled their hearts.Just then, they found Sean's car parked not far away, but it had been engulfed in flames.The two looked at the fire in front of them in horror, filled with doubts and worries.
In another corner, Dove slowly woke up.She found herself being threatened by two masked men.They told her in cold tones that there would be serious consequences if she continued to investigate the case.Dove tried to stay calm, but her heart was filled with fear.
Meanwhile, Gilbert and Amy decide to find Dove immediately.They walked through the city streets, looking for any possible clues.Eventually, they found Dove in a remote corner.When she saw them, there was a flash of surprise and relief in her eyes.However, when she told them what had happened to her, all three fell silent.They knew that the case was far more complicated and dangerous than they imagined.
Dove set out on the path she had been attacked before, her steps firm.She arrived at the door of Mrs. Sean O'Shea's mansion and saw that Sean's car had been engulfed in flames and turned into ashes.
Luckily, Sean wasn't in the car.He was talking to Mrs Sean O'Shea - his mother - in the house at the moment.Faced with Dove's inquiry, Sean seemed quite helpless about what happened to the car. He speculated that it might be an act of revenge by his ex-wife or a competitor in the taxi industry.
Dove gave Gilbert a detailed description of the man who attacked her.Gilbert is deeply worried about her safety, but Dove seems quite excited, thinking that this encounter will provide her with a fascinating story.She solemnly reminded Gilbert to be careful when talking to Sean, and he would be wrong if he spoke too much.
Later, Gilbert and his team discussed the missing three people - Malachy, Fiona, and the boy.Dove flipped through the files Amy had stolen, and the boy was mentioned in it, but his name was deliberately erased.After some exploration, she was surprised to find that the boy miraculously appeared after three days of disappearance.His name finally emerged - Edward.He was rescued on the roadside by a nun named Macdonald.
To solve the mystery, the team decides to take a boat trip to the monastery to visit.They were warmly received by Bernadette, the abbess, who turned out to be a big fan of Gilbert's podcast.Dove asked the Mother Superior if she could see Sister MacDonald, but the Mother Superior expressed uncertainty.
It was then that Gilbert was surprised to find that the monastery was hosting a spiritual yoga retreat.In a conversation with the abbot, he learned that a girl named Dubhissa had set fire to the monastery many years ago.Dean curiously asked Dove if her name was short for Dubhissa.This makes people speculate whether Dove is inextricably linked to this arson case?
During the visit, Dove cleverly struck up a conversation with a chef and learned about Sister MacDonald's whereabouts.After learning its location, she cleverly triggers the fire alarm to distract the dean.The team then took the opportunity to go upstairs and into Sister MacDonald's room.
Sister MacDonald told the team about Edward's deeds and revealed that he had lost his memory when he was found and had no way of knowing who he was.What's even more shocking is that this boy is actually Ted, whom Gilbert met in the bar in the previous episode.
Later, the team meets Sean again.Sean revealed to them Ted's last name - Ball.Gilbert couldn't help but have a doubt in his heart, wondering whether there was some kind of blood relationship between him and Ted.However, Dove believed that Ted was more likely a relative of Sergeant Ball.
In order to find out the truth, Sean drove the team to Ted's home.Gilbert tried to get more information out of Ted, but Ted remained silent.After Dove intentionally cuts her hand, Ted finally reveals more details.He mentioned that Fiona would not only pick him up after school and accompany him through his lonely time, but she would also cook delicious food for him and tell him touching stories.
However, at this moment, Sergeant Bauer suddenly burst in and angrily asked them to leave and not disturb Ted.It turned out that Ted was his biological son.
After the team left, there was a discussion about what had just happened.They discovered that Sean was missing.In a note, they learned that Sean was away on business.Just then, Dove received a call from her boss and learned that the police were investigating her email.She is worried that she may be jailed for investigating “NHS stories” in London.
During their walk, the team bumps into Darla.He revealed that Frank was looking for them everywhere, but Gilbert had no memory of Frank's name.Gilbert asks Darla for more information about Ted and learns that he has been stalking Fiona.Darla looked nervous when Dove mentioned Malachi.He warned them not to touch on the “wrong questions” and then hurried back to work.The camera cuts to a scene where Sean meets a woman.Apparently, he was buying a rifle from the woman. During the transaction, the two looked nervous, revealing an atmosphere of illegal trading.
At the same time, Dove and the team encountered a traditional local game - “Roadside Bowling”.The atmosphere was heated, and one man mentioned Frank's name in the conversation.When Gilbert curiously asked Frank who he was, the man responded in a joking tone, seeming to think that Gilbert was deliberately pretending to be confused.
Dove took the opportunity to chat with two locals, Barry and Cashel, whom she had met previously.She asked them for information about Fiona Doyle, and they both praised Fiona, describing her as a “lovely girl”.Later, Dove mentions Malachi, but does not get any more valuable clues except that he is the local bowling champion.
On the other side, the conversation between Gilbert and Sims gradually deepened.Sims reveals that he was not in town during the last Samhain festival.When Gilbert mentions Frank, Sims explains that Frank is a new-age traveler whose movements are erratic.
Meanwhile, Dove and Amy interact with a woman who takes photos of the bowling game.The woman told them that since Malachi was a bowling champion, his picture would probably appear in the old newspaper.This discovery gives Dove and Amy hope of finding clues about Malachi.
As night falls, Gilbert, Sims and others gather in the bar.At this time, Sean suddenly appeared, pulled Sims aside, and whispered to him that “Package” had been received.This scene seems mysterious and tense, suggesting that there may be some kind of ulterior secret deal between them.
In another corner of the bar, while sitting alone, Gilbert suddenly encountered Frank and a woman.The lady tells Gilbert that he once played a game with Frank while drunk and lost 8K.Although Gilbert had no memory of the incident, the woman produced a video as evidence that Gilbert indeed owed the debt.
Meanwhile, Dove and Amy are searching for clues at the local library.The library has closed, but they have not given up.Amy nimbly climbed in through the window and then helped Dove into the library.In the dim light, they flipped through the dusty newspapers and finally found a group photo - it was a photo of Malachi, Sims and another person.Dove carefully identified each person in the photo. Suddenly, her eyes were fixed on the face of one of them.
Back at Sean O'Shea's house, Gilbert is anxiously looking at his financial situation, and it's clear that he's not doing well financially.At this point, Dove and Amy walk in with shocking news.Dove tells Gilbert that the man who has been appearing as Sims is actually Jack McFadden, the legendary “Badger”.She had heard the name in previous investigations and knew he was a smuggler and might even be linked to violence.Even more shocking is that Jack McFadden was thought dead, but is now hiding in town under another name.
While they were talking, Mrs. Sean O'Shea burst into the room, her face pale and her voice trembling, telling them that something terrible had happened.Under her leadership, they came to an eerie place, where they saw Dara's body lying quietly on the ground.The cause of his death is a mystery, but it was clearly foul play.This discovery plunged the entire team into deep fear and confusion.
Darla is busy making funeral arrangements in the morgue.The podcast team and Sean ran into Sims at the festival preparations and got out of the car to investigate the situation.Sims was seen being extremely aggressive towards the organizer of the event, Shitpants“, the man who ran the server farm.
Later, Darla's sisters hosted a heartwarming party in memory of their late brother.The podcast team arrived at the invitation and were surprised to find Darla's coffin placed in the center of the room, with a solemn and solemn atmosphere.
Dove spoke briefly with undertaker Mary before paying her respects to Darla.Later, she encounters Sims in the kitchen, who is foraging for food.Sims accuses her of being a vulture who preys on people's sorrow.Faced with accusations, Dove insisted that she was just a journalist.Sims disagreed and brought up past events from her time in London, specifically the man who committed suicide.
Meanwhile, Gilbert enters into a conversation with Frank's friends.The latter mentioned money owed by Gilbert and denied knowing Malachi.She also insisted that she did not attend the Samhain event on Halloween night.
Outside the house, Dove and Mary toasted and drank. During the conversation, Mary showed some ambiguity towards the female reporter.However, while the two were talking, Dove received a call from her boss.Her boss informed her that she was being investigated by the Home Office for possession of the whistleblower's laptop and wanted her to go home and defend herself.Dove flatly refuses, stating that she has devoted herself to reporting on the town's badger Sims.
Back inside, Gilbert talks to Sims about Darla.Sean and Amy are outside the house, guarding Amy from the rude behavior of local youths.Amy then talks to ”Shitpants“ Fintan and learns that after eating psychedelic mushrooms on Halloween, he actually shot a swamp monster in the Samhain show.
During a conversation with Darla's sister, Gilbert learned that Darla had been imprisoned for some reason, and after being released from prison, she returned to the town with Malachi.The two actually met in prison.
Meanwhile, Dove launches her own investigation.She rode her scooter to Sims' residence and found the house locked.In desperation, she had to crawl into the house through the narrow cat hole.
At the party, Gilbert had a lively conversation with Darla's other sister.From her mouth, Gilbert learned that Malachi had used Darla to induce him to rent the land.Darla has a deep love for Malachi, but after Malachi disappears, his leasehold rights are transferred to Sims.This astonishing discovery shocked Gilbert.
Elsewhere, Fintan reveals to Amy the rumors he heard about the car accident.Although he failed to find traces of the car accident, he witnessed a mythical blacksmith named Jackie emerging from the lake.
Inside Sims' house, Dove accidentally discovers a gun and several old photos.One photo in particular stands out, showing Sims with Fiona, one of the missing persons.Additionally, she found a ring with Fiona's name engraved on it.
In another scene, Sean meets a group of young men on a country road.He warned them to guard their ”cargo“ - the guns hidden in the back of his car.While they were talking, Dove flew by on the scooter she borrowed from the party.Eventually, she arrives at the bar and shares this series of shocking discoveries with Gilbert.Meanwhile, Amy and Fintan get together at Fintan's house.During the conversation, Amy learned that Fintan and Teddy were once close friends, but they became estranged due to a misunderstanding.On the night Teddy goes missing, Fintan feels guilty for breaking up on a date with the girl he likes.Amy also learned from Fintan the reason why he was nicknamed ”Shit Pants% - an embarrassing past incident on campus.As the conversation progressed, the relationship between the two gradually heated up, and Fintan and Amy finally embraced each other intimately.
As the night wore on, Gilbert and Dove continued to communicate in depth in the bar, and their hearts gradually got closer to each other.However, when they were about to leave, they were blocked by Frank.Facing Frank's provocation, Dove decisively struck him on the bridge of the nose with a punch, and then quickly fled the scene with Gilbert.While on the run, Gilbert revealed to Dove his recent financial difficulties and marital problems, and the two became more sympathetic to each other because of their shared situation.
The next morning, Gilbert enjoys a delicious breakfast in Mrs. O'Shea's shop, while Dove loses her appetite due to hangover.Despite being unwell, Dove never failed to remind Gilbert that capturing Sims, a key figure, was crucial to their podcast.
Darla's funeral goes ahead as planned, and Gilbert finds Sims in the crowd.Meanwhile, Amy and Dove are pestered by a woman who opposes Samhain.She mentioned a car accident, which reminded Amy of the car accident scene that Fintan had described earlier.
After the funeral, Gilbert and Simms took a boat together and talked freely on the sparkling water.Gilbert shared with Sims the inspiring story of his wife's battle with cancer, and Sims gradually opened up about his past.However, when the subject came up with Dove, Sims became defensive.He asked Gilbert what secret Dove was searching for.Gilbert hesitates for a moment before finally revealing Dove's suspicions about Simms' relationship with Fiona, and the fact that Malachi may be his brother.Sims was silent for a long time, and finally admitted that he did love Fiona deeply, and that Malachi was an indispensable pillar in his life.However, one day, they suddenly disappeared and were never heard from again.
As the investigation progressed, the podcast team zeroed in on the swamp.They believe there may be clues to the missing vehicle hidden here.Thanks to Dove's brave diving, a buried car finally came to light.As the car was being towed out of the water, Dove angrily kicked it, causing the trunk to open unexpectedly.Everyone was shocked to find that there were two bodies lying in the trunk!
Two bodies were found in the car, and then Sheriff Ball showed up to disperse the onlookers and maintain order at the scene.Dove was suspicious and cast her suspicion on Seamus, thinking that he might be involved in the murder.
The podcast team members were unable to return home as scheduled due to Sean's absence. However, Amy successfully tracked the vehicle Sean was driving through the location function of her mobile phone.Everyone followed the trail and found Sean and Seamus appearing together. The two were holding the shotguns mentioned in the previous episode and shooting seagulls.As the team hunker down, Sean is overheard revealing to Seamus the shocking secret of the body found in the car.
In a dark warehouse, team members accidentally discovered several giant containers filled with clean water.During the investigation, Dove accidentally fell into one of the containers, and when she struggled to climb out, she was covered in greasy eels.However, what is even more frightening is that two men and women armed with guns quietly approached. They were the suspects who had previously attempted to attack Dove.They called themselves Interpol, and the woman even revealed that the case involved a major international eel smuggling case.The two men threatened team members with severe punishment if they dared to interfere with the criminal investigation and warned them to stay away from Seamus.
Returning home, the team members discussed the series of bizarre events that occurred today.Dove hypothesizes that Seamus may be inextricably linked to the smuggling case.Despite the dramatic nature of this idea, Gilbert advised everyone to remain calm and not to act rashly to avoid angering Seamus.
As night falls, Dove is awakened by a nightmare.In the dream, a suicidal whistleblower was hanging from the ceiling, with an eel sliding out of his mouth. The scene was extremely strange.Early the next morning, Frank made a surprise visit, punched Gilbert hard, stuffed him into the trunk of his car, and drove off to an unknown place.After some torture and intimidation, Gilbert was finally released, while Frank walked away.
In Gilbert's absence, Amy and Dove decide to investigate on their own.Dove shows Amy a newspaper with photos of Malachi and Seamus, including Sheriff Ball.The two then went to a cafe and confronted the police sergeant.Dove bluntly confronts the Sheriff about the origin of the photo and insists that Seamus was behind the murders of Malachy and Fiona.However, the Sheriff denied it, insisting that it was the gangster McArdle brothers and had nothing to do with Seamus.When Amy asked if Teddy was involved, the Sheriff became furious, scolding her for making things up out of nothing, and revealed that Teddy was with Fintan at the moment.After the Sheriff leaves, Dove becomes suspicious of the Sheriff's story, believing that he is hiding the truth.
At the same time, after calling his wife, Gilbert felt a strong sense of remorse.At this point, Seamus appears in his car and tries to comfort and encourage him.Seamus makes a request to Gilbert, offering to pay off his debt to Frank as long as he remains silent on the podcast.
The camera pans to Amy and Dove, who are now sitting in the back seat of Sean's car, closely monitoring the car found in the swamp.The car is being closely guarded by a police officer.Soon after, Dove took the opportunity to get out and inspect the car while Amy struck up a conversation with Sean.When Amy made it clear that she had no love for Sean, Sean drove away angrily.Amy then cleverly distracts the police while Dove searches the car carefully.Inside the car, Dove finds a knife with a cross on it, which is very similar to the knife she saw Teddy holding before.The two couldn't help but begin to wonder if there was some secret connection between Teddy and the murder.
At the same time, Gilbert and Seamus were riding in the same car and witnessed Seamus handling “small business” along the way.Seamus parked on the side of the road and walked to a docked boat.There, Sean and Interpol agents are waiting for his arrival.The agents, claiming to be working on behalf of a consortium of Japanese food buyers with a strong interest in eels, attempted to strike a smuggling deal with Seamus.Faced with the agent's proposal, Seamus was initially hesitant and did not easily admit his smuggling behavior.However, after agents proposed a higher purchase price, he softened significantly and eventually agreed to the deal.
Back in the car, Seamus remained tight-lipped to Gilbert and revealed nothing about the business meeting.Gilbert also chose to remain silent and did not mention that he had had contact with Interpol agents.
The camera pans to Amy, who is now alone with Fintan.Amy hopes that Fintan will hand over the knife to Teddy as an act of making amends.She thought the knife might jog Teddy's memory of the night he disappeared.After arranging all this, Amy met with Dove to inform her of her plan and asked Dove to help record the conversation between Fintan and Teddy.
The scene changes to Teddy's workshop, where Fintan and Teddy are having an in-depth conversation.Amy, on the other hand, hid in the dark and secretly recorded the conversation between the two.Fintan apologized to Teddy for his betrayal.He then took out the knife he had found in the car and showed it to Teddy.Teddy was shocked to recognize that the knife was the gift he had given his father many years ago.After hearing the news, Amy immediately ran to Dove, who was waiting nearby, and told her that the car she found in the swamp was probably Sheriff Ball's, not Seamus's.Amy is convinced that the man Fintan saw walking out of the swamp was the Sheriff himself.
However, when Dove wants to listen to the recording herself, a heated argument breaks out between her and Amy.After the quarrel, Fintan showed up unexpectedly and discovered Amy's recording behavior.He angrily drives off, leaving Amy and Dove looking at each other.
Seamus drove to Jolo, leaving Gilbert in the car.Gilbert couldn't restrain his curiosity, got out of the car and found a teddy bear in the trunk of the tree stump.Just as he was about to explore further, he heard the sound of Seamus returning, so he hurried back to the passenger seat to avoid being discovered by Seamus.
Seamus got into the car and handed Gilbert a sum of money to pay off the debt.Gilbert curiously asked about the source of the money, but Seamus was vague and unwilling to say more.He just told Gilbert that he had hidden the money and promised to always take care of Malachi's family to ensure that they would not fall into trouble.
The camera switched to Dove and Amy again. The two were silent at the moment, each immersed in their own thoughts.Gilbert and Seamus on the other side arrived at the traveler camp.Here, Seamus hands that money over to Frank.When Frank jokingly remarks that the money isn't enough, Seamus becomes agitated and violently staples the money to Frank's body.
Back in the car, Seamus apologized to Gilbert, explaining that he once had anger management issues.However, judging from Gilbert's reaction, he does not think these issues have been properly resolved.
As the night wears on, Gilbert notices the growing tension between Amy and Dove.Dove decides to leave the bar and visit Mary, who she bonded with in the previous episode.Gilbert took Seamus to the morgue to let them see the bodies of Malachy and Fiona with their own eyes.Seamus recognized Malachy's sixth toe at a glance and was eager to know who had killed them and whether they had been brutally tortured before they died.He then told Gilbert that he had fantasized about running away with them.But deep down, he knew exactly what was going on.He linked the deaths of the two men to the McArdle brothers, as they apparently had a vendetta against him.
Meanwhile, Dove gets bad news from her boss.She was told there was an extradition order to send her home.On the way back to the morgue, Dove learned a shocking fact from Seamus: the female body was not Fiona's.The discovery raises a new question: Whose body is it?
At the morgue, Sims confirms that the body is not Fiona's.He told Gilbert it was time to find answers, and the two drove to a restaurant.
At the restaurant, an Elvis impersonator named Ed got into an argument with Sims and then began sobbing.He thought Sims was dead, even though he knew Sims by his previous name, Jackie, “Badger”.
Sims tells Ed that he needs to talk to the McArdle family.Ed is unsure about the wisdom of this and is reluctant to provide the information, but Gilbert changes Ed's mind by offering to mention his restaurant on the podcast.
Later, in the car, Simms tells Gilbert about the past of the McArdle family.He and Malachi stole the McArdle brothers' explosives after they were sent to prison.When the gangsters are released, one of them pursues Sims.Sims kills him and then flees to hide in Summertown.But now he wants to meet the McArdle family because he thinks they may know Fiona's whereabouts.
Sims parked her car and they watched Brona McArdle walk into her store through their car window.Gilbert thinks she looks harmless, but Sims tells him otherwise.Gilbert entered the store first and had a friendly conversation with Broner, but when he accidentally mentioned her name, she pointed a gun at Gilbert.
Sims enters the store and is recognized by Broner.He fired a warning shot at the plate above her head, and Gilbert snatched her gun away.Sims asks about Fiona, but Broner claims not to recognize her.This confused him and he and Gilbert left the store.We then see Broner calling someone to tell them Sims is alive.
Since Sims mentioned Summertown to Broner, he now fears for his life.On the way home, he and Gilbert discuss Fiona, whom Sims suspects may still be alive.Their conversation is interrupted as they see someone falling from a tree.It's Dove.When Gilbert goes to check on her, Sims hears Dove talking about Malachy's body that was found in Officer Ball's car.Sims is angry that Gilbert didn't tell him about this, and leaves Gilbert and Dove to visit the officer.
Police officer hospitalized after suffering heart attack.We'll find out why later.Sims entered his room and pointed a gun at the officer.Alarmed, the officer tells Sims that Malachi came to him years ago and told him that the MacArdles were after him and Fiona.The officer intends to help them escape, but after searching for Fiona, he cannot find her.When he got home, his car was gone and Malachi was gone with it.Officers believe the McArdles have captured Malachi and Fiona.
Gilbert arrived and heard the end of their conversation.He and Sims then left the hospital room.Sims was angry that Gilbert didn't tell him about the body found in the officer's car.They argue, but are interrupted by a phone call from Gilbert's wife, Amber.She is coming to Summer Town.
We then flash back to a scene a few hours earlier.Dove and Mary go to a bar together.Mary did some research online and learned about Dove's investigation in London.Dove was surprised, but not angry.After singing karaoke, she surprised Mary with a kiss.
When Dove went out to get some air, Officer Ball came over and mentioned her mother.She followed him into the bar and told him she knew the body was in his car.She then told him she knew he was involved in the murder.The news gave the officer a heart attack.Ted saw this.
The next morning, Dove wakes up at Mary's house and meets her daughter.Dove gets into an argument with Mary and leaves, finding her phone on the way.Then, for some reason, she hides in a tree and falls down before Sims and Gilbert show up.We then see a replay of the previous scene.
Gilbert chases Sims while Dove goes to visit Ted.She explains to him what happened last night and tells him that the body was found in his father's car.Ted tells her how he forgets things.However, he remembers blood and a brick, so he thinks he may have killed Malachi and Fiona.Dove believes Ted is innocent and tells him that she is sorry that his father led him to believe that he was responsible for the murder.
Officer Ball is visited by Dove in the hospital.She questions why he lied to Ted.The officer told her that he came home after searching for Fiona and saw Ted holding a brick.He is convinced that Ted killed Malachi because he thought the two of them were fighting over Fiona.He tells her that he drove out to hide Malachy's body and hit a New Age Traveler girl.He then hid the body in the car and sunk it into the swamp.
The officer told Dove that he hid the body to protect his son from Sims.He believes that if Sims knew the truth, his son would be a “dead man”.
We then see another flashback scene where Amy and Fintan are at the bar at the same time as Dove.Amy watched as Dove argued with the officer and tried to pull her away.In the process, she grabbed Dove's coat and took it with her as she left with Fintan.As they drove, Amy told Fintan to stop.We then see Amy venting her anger on Dove while throwing away her reporter jacket.
The coat must have gotten stuck in the tree, which is why Dove climbed up to get it the next day.She must have dropped her phone on the road.
The next morning, Fintan encourages Amy to stop being Dove's stooge.She then returned to Mrs O'Shea's house where she read a message Gilbert had sent her from his mobile phone.The information was that the body in the car was not Fiona's.After telling Sean the news, Mrs O'Shea was heard dropping something in the kitchen.Does she have anything to do with all this?
Later, Amy went to the morgue to check the body and found a bracelet on the arm of the decomposed female body.The name “Greta” is engraved on the bracelet.Shortly after, she played a recording she made for the podcast.In the recording, we hear Maeve (Frank's friend) telling Gilbert that she drove her friend Greta to Dublin the night she disappeared.
Amy joins Dove and Gilbert in their holiday preparations.She tells them that Maeve may have killed Greta.But Dove tells her what Officer Ball told her at the hospital.She tells them that the police officer killed Greta and that Ted killed Malachy.
Dove thinks Maeve lied about her whereabouts on Samhain night, so she joins the others in investigating her caravan.Maeve previously claimed she wasn't attending the festival, but Amy found a photo proving otherwise.Minutes later, Dove discovers a picture of Fiona's pregnancy scan.
Simms ends up talking to Sean on the ship.He wants Sean to cancel the deal with the Japanese company.When Sims disconnects the phone and prepares to board the upper deck, someone locks the hatch and sets a fire, and he's trapped!
Dove sat in front of her laptop, staring solemnly at her reflection in the screen.On the other side, crowds gathered in the harbor to look at Sims's burned ship.Interpol agents are also present and are negotiating with local police to execute an arrest warrant against Dove.
Dove was currently immersed in a sea of information about the Official Secrets Act, carefully studying the possible serious legal consequences of violating this law.There was a look of unconcealable worry on her face.
Meanwhile, breakfast time is approaching at Mrs. Sean O'Shea's house.However, before enjoying the delicious food, Dove made a surprising discovery for Gilbert and Amy - the girdle worn by Mrs. Sean O'Shea turned out to be the Sisters of Mercy who had appeared before.When Mrs. Sean O'Shea learned of this, her true identity gradually emerged - she was not only a nurse, but also a former nun.Faced with this sudden revelation, she angrily interrupted the conversation, and breakfast was canceled.
After breakfast in a cozy café, Amy and Dove say goodbye to Gilbert.The camera switched again, this time to the eel warehouse.Amazingly, Sims is still alive.Sean talks to Sims in the warehouse and learns that the McArdle family were behind the arson.Sims revealed that he may be leaving the town to escape the coming storm.
The scene returns to the home of Mrs. Sean O'Shea, who is anxiously discussing on the phone how to % slow down the spread of the podcast.Soon after, the police suddenly appeared at the door, looking for Dove, but she was no longer here.
Meanwhile, Dove and Amy have arrived at the convent, where they are looking for Sister Macdonald.Under Sister Bernadette's arrangement, they waited in the office.Although the tea and cakes served to them were sweet and delicious, when Dove mentioned Fiona's name, the originally warm atmosphere solidified instantly.Sister Bernadette avoided talking about the whereabouts of the missing woman. Instead, she told Amy how Dove was taken in by the convent and how Dove later burned down the church.
Dove strongly disagrees with this statement.However, just as the two were about to have a dispute, Sister Bernadette was summoned to leave urgently.Dove tried to leave the office, but found the door locked.After some efforts, she finally managed to escape.Later, she and Amy went to Sister Macdonald's room, with Dove entering alone while Amy waited outside.During an in-depth conversation with Sister MacDonald, Dove was shocked to discover that Fiona was actually a Dominican nun who had been hiding secretly in the convent.
Meanwhile, Gilbert is meeting with Amber.Amber wants him to sign the divorce papers, while Gilbert tries to convince her to change her mind.However, Amber was not happy with Gilbert talking openly about their marriage on the podcast.Finally, Gilbert reluctantly signed his name on the document.
When Dove and Amy return to the convent, they find themselves in a crowded room surrounded by unfamiliar faces.Dove begins to have hallucinations in which she sees her mother surrounded by a group of nurses.When she came out of her trance, she and Amy were at the spa, where numerous naked nuns gathered.When Amy asks a nun for clues about the Dominican nun, she discovers that Dove has left alone.
The camera pans back to Dove, who is once again hallucinating.This time, she saw horrific scenes of herself being tortured by nuns in a spa as a child.As Amy struggles to bring Dove back to reality, Dove reveals a shocking secret - Sister Bernadette has drugged her tea.As Dove's hallucinations become more severe, Amy gradually discovers a surprising secret hidden among the nuns - they are conducting an underground drug trade.In order to prevent the situation from getting worse, Amy immediately dialed Gilbert's phone, told him all this, and warned him not to drink the cup of tea.
Amy guided Dove into the church, where the nuns carefully cared for the bees.What Dove saw was the ruins of a burned-out church. Perhaps that was the mistake she made when she was young and ignorant.As her consciousness gradually returns to reality, Amy starts a conversation with the Dominican nun, but unexpectedly discovers that she is not Fiona.It seemed that Sister Macdonald's memory was skewed.
The camera switches to show Gilbert heading towards the monastery.On the way, he happened to meet Ted and Maeve.Ted urgently asked Maeve about a series of events that happened on the island, but Maeve remained tight-lipped.When Gilbert reveals that Maeve was not in Dublin on the night of Samhain and reveals that Fiona is pregnant, Maeve's psychological defenses finally break.
She tells her story, including whacking Ted with a paddle when she mistakenly thought Sims was after Fiona.She then took him to the convent where he was treated by Mrs Sean O'Shea.
In the monastery cemetery, Gilbert, Maeve, and Amy and Dove gathered together, and more mysteries were gradually revealed.Maeve revealed that Fiona had been sheltered by Mrs. Sean O'Shea during her pregnancy, hiding from Sims and the McArdle family in the convent.
At this moment, Bernadette angrily broke into the cemetery and was furious after seeing the group of people.But her mood softened a bit when her eyes fell on Maeve.Bernadette reveals to them that Fiona was born prematurely and died tragically, and the baby did not survive.Upon hearing the bad news, Dove was so distraught that she collapsed to the ground.
The scene cuts again to show Sims talking to a group of people interested in buying eels.However, the eel mysteriously disappeared.Sims suspects that Sean is responsible for all this.
Back at the convent, Dove confessed to Bernadette that she had smoked in the church, which was the reason why the church eventually burned down.It turns out that Dove's mother was an addict, and she abandoned Dove in a convent while she was recovering from drugs.However, after successfully detoxifying, she did not want to see Dove again.
Bernadette mentions the grave she dug for Fiona and the child, then sadly leaves.Dove, Gilbert and Amy discuss all this, with Gilbert expressing doubts about Bernadette's claims.Just then, police and Interpol agents arrived on the scene, preparing to arrest Dove.It turned out that it was Bernadette who called the police.
Gilbert tried to stop it, but was hit with pepper spray.Dove is taken away by the police.Later, we hear a conversation between Amy and Bernadette.Amy realizes that Fiona's baby is not dead.Mrs. Sean O'Shea took her child back to the mainland after his birth and falsely claimed that he was an orphan from Romania.And this child is Sean.Amy also realizes that Sims is the child's biological father.This truth shocked Bernadette.
Finally, we see that Sean is dealing with the so-called “Japanese Buyer”, but he doesn't know that the other person is actually an undercover Interpol agent.Meanwhile, Gilbert and Dove take the ferry back to the mainland.Among the Samhain decorations, Gilbert discovered a mask that bore a striking resemblance to his own.
The McArdle family arrived at the scene of a late-summer disappearance sullen and visibly troubled.
At the same time, Gilbert and Dove were behind bars and were temporarily detained in a prison cell.Gilbert was overjoyed with the progress of the podcast. However, Dove, who was facing the risk of extradition, was unable to share his joy and was filled with anxiety and uneasiness.
In her conversation with Gilbert, Dove recalled her experiences in London.She revealed that Kertek had begged her not to make certain things public.However, instead of doing what he wanted, she chose to protect his anonymity to keep him safe.However, the development of the situation was beyond her expectation, and Kertek finally chose to hang himself.
In order to reveal the truth, Dove resolutely took away Keltek's laptop.The computer contained key evidence related to high-level government corruption.She confessed to Gilbert that she did this to protect the truth.However, Gilbert blamed her for indirectly causing Kertek's death, and the two had a disagreement.
Gilbert was later released by police.Meanwhile, an angry Sims breaks into Mrs. O'Shea's home, looking for Sean.After he leaves, Amy reveals a shocking secret to Mrs. O'Shea - she learns that Sean is actually Simms' son.
Back at the police station, Dov was taken away by Interpol and put into a van.Before being taken away, she made a deal with police that they would let her go if she assisted them in capturing Sims.Police agreed to her conditions but put her on an ankle monitor to ensure they could track her whereabouts.
At Mrs. O'Shea's home, the woman opens her heart to Gilbert and Amy.She expressed guilt that she felt she had failed Fiona, who had asked her before her death to keep Sims from getting involved with Sean.Mrs O'Shea also revealed that she burned Sean's car with her own hands in order to scare the podcast members.Additionally, she mentions that it was Maeve who suggested burning Sims' ship as a way to scare him.
Mrs. O'Shea pleads with Amy to persuade Sean to return Sims' eel, and hopes that Gilbert and Amy will promise to never let Sean know that Sims is his biological father.Gilbert promised solemnly and recorded the entire conversation during the conversation.
Meanwhile, Dove quietly shows up at Sims' home and offers him a deal.However, the details of the transaction were not revealed, as the McArdle family suddenly appeared outside the door, forcing the pair to quickly go into hiding.
The McArdle family broke into the house, three of them - the father in a wheelchair, Broner and their son.After searching for Sims to no avail, Broner shot his dog and left angrily with his family.
Dove eagerly persuades Sims to retrieve the eel from Sean and asks him to protect Gilbert from the McArdles.However, Sims refused her request.In desperation, Dove hurries back to the police station and warns Gilbert that the McArdle family is searching for him at the scene of a late-summer disappearance.
In the dense woods, Amy accidentally found Sean.Sean revealed his plans to move to Romania, a country he feels he has a special connection with.In order to raise travel expenses, he planned to sell the eels in his hands.
Back home, Dove and Gilbert hatched a comprehensive plan.She wants Gilbert to reveal the truth about his son to Simms, as she firmly believes that is the only way to bring Sims back to the scene of his late-summer disappearance.According to the plan, Sims will make a deal with Sean and be arrested by Interpol in the process.This way, he can both protect himself from the McArdles and help Sean out.Dove believes that as this series of events unfolds, the McArdle family will eventually choose to leave this place.
