Endeavour is bachelor to stream . Epitomize the previous episode .
The latest victim to exist found dead on the riverside towpath is Bridget Mulcahy. Once again, whistling was heard around the time she was killed, although this time the murderer bit her and tried to suck her claret. Thursday arrests Carl Sturgis, the boyfriend of the commencement victim, Molly Andrews—Thursday's initial suspect. Sturgis knew both Molly and Bridget, and he whistled the same tune when Thursday tailed him every bit that heard by the towpath. The second victim, a cook exposing himself to women, was probably killed because he infringed on Carl's territory.
With Carl pending trial, Bright tells Thursday he regrets trusting Morse's instincts that Carl wasn't the murderer. Morse still isn't sure, however: the necklace ripped from Molly'due south neck hasn't been establish in Carl's possessions, and he has some decent alibis. Thursday and Morse argue bitterly.
But then another immature woman is killed on the towpath. Petra Connolly was a student at the all-female Lady Matilda's College. Petra'southward tutor, Maggie Byrne, shares that Petra had recently submitted a formal complaint against the misogynistic Dai Ferman, a professor at another college, for groping her, but he pleads innocence.
While examining the crime scene, Thursday tries to distinguish Petra's murder from the others, thus proving his abort of Carl right. Morse argues with him, insulting his power as a detective. The back-and-forth grows and then intense that Dr. De Bryn and Foreign have to angrily chastise the two men. Morse tells Thursday he will apply for a transfer equally before long as the example is solved.
Bright is furious about this new development, because now Carl will be released—and all this on the twenty-four hours that his wife returns from the United States, where she was undergoing experimental treatment that seems to have sent her cancer into remission.
Although Thursday has continually dismissed his concerns, Morse is notwithstanding looking into a spate of seemingly adventitious deaths. Dorothea Frazil has discovered more than accidents, further afield from Oxford. They all involve falls, and Morse has found that several of the people killed had just cashed out their life insurance.
For clues on the towpath killings, Morse goes to Jen Tate, the woman who claimed to have had a vision of Molly Andrews' murder. She wants to exist left lonely, but is panicky and continually glances at a room. Inside, Morse finds crucifixes and a painting of a menacing figure—the object of Jen'south terrifying visions. Tinfoil covers the windows. Jen asks Morse not to tell anyone—she doesn't want to be institutionalized.
She too tells Morse of a troubling childhood. Her cousin would torment her and her siblings. They lived in a higher place a pub, and everyone in her family unit but her died in a terrible fire.
Morse asks Dorothea to expect into the newspaper athenaeum for news virtually the fire. She comes up with a story that matches the details, although Jen must accept changed her name. She and her two siblings were orphans who lived with their aunt's family. They were all killed in a burn down that was blamed on the girl who survived—Jen. At the same time as the fire, a neighborhood male child named George Fontayne went missing. George has never been found.
Meanwhile, another blow has occurred—this time at Lady Matilda's College. A faculty member fell from a ladder in a library, knocking downward a heavy bust that smashed her head in. It happened around midnight—but the lights in the library were off, suggesting someone was there after the fall. The adult female had recently cashed in on life insurance to buy a house.
Thursday still refuses to see a pattern in the accidents, and takes Morse off the towpath case for continuing to look into them. He has also requested that Morse exist transferred as presently every bit possible.
Maggie Byrne and the Lady Matilda women decide to accept matters into their ain hands; no more of them will die. Maggie walks forth the towpath at night. When she is attacked, a large group of women with flashlights emerges and chases the assailant, who runs into the street and is hit by a car.
Information technology'due south non Carl Sturgis, simply rather the human who institute Molly Andrews' body. His flat was filled with newspaper clippings well-nigh Molly's murder. He'southward in a coma at present. One strange note: he was whistling a different tune than that heard effectually the other assaults.
Meanwhile, Morse has been carrying on an affair with Violetta for months. They meet in the apartment of one of Violetta's friends, who is abroad. Ludo has approached Morse in distress, concerned that his wife is having an affair. Suddenly, he calls Morse and asks him to meet the following day.
At the appointed restaurant, Morse is surprised to encounter Violetta there with Ludo. Ludo explains that he had tried to achieve Morse recently and pretended to be a policeman with urgent business organization. Morse's station gave Ludo a phone number, which Ludo recognized. When he called, Violetta picked up.
Now that Ludo knows about the affair, Morse asks Violetta to go with him. Only she chooses the wealthy Ludo instead, saying she never felt anything for Morse. Money is a powerful motivator.

Dorothea calls Thursday with distressing news: Bright's wife has died in an accident, an electrocution while hanging Christmas lights. Morse thinks information technology'due south part of a scheme, like the other accidents: a visitor buys someone's life insurance policy to requite the person fast cash, then stages an accident and collects on the insurance. Morse tells Strange his theory and enlists his assistance, sending him to the site of a contempo accident.
Morse goes to speak with owner of the pub that Jen's family unit lived to a higher place. The owner remembers Jen's blood brother as having a nasty streak, particularly towards animals, and mentions that it probably came from the Sturgis side of the family.
Strange pulls up to a prissy home, the site of a recent fatal fall, and is surprised to observe Carl there. Carl says he's watching the dwelling house for a friend. While he makes coffee for Strange, he whistles the tune people heard along the towpath. Strange sneaks off to look upstairs, and finds Jen Tate tied up in a room. Equally Morse pulls upwardly exterior, Strange gestures to him through the window—and Carl stabs him.
Morse rushes in and searches for Carl, who jumps on Morse. In a brief tussle, Morse throws Carl off him, and Carl falls downwards the stairs to his expiry.
Foreign will recover from the stabbing. Jen, too, is at least physically safe, although Carl scrap her forearm.
As an employee of the undertaker, Carl knew that this business firm was vacant, and then had shacked upwardly in it. In a backroom, there are dismembered animal corpses—likewise every bit Molly Andrews' necklace.
Carl was Jen's brother. Morse surmises that his roughshod streak—perhaps magnified by the tormenting by his cousin—evolved from animals to humans, and that he killed George Fontayne, then set up the fire to cover his tracks, and pretended to perish in information technology. Every bit Thursday suspected, Carl killed Molly and Bridget, besides every bit the cook, who had intruded on his territory. The man who killed Petra and attacked Maggie must have had something awakened inside him past seeing Molly's corpse, and was a copycat killer. Jen's visions may exist some mental connection with her brother or simply a vestige of childhood trauma.
Standing to look into the freak accidents, Morse recognizes i electrocuted woman every bit Violetta's friend, whose apartment they were using for their thing. He so realizes that the names of the areas in which accidents were clustered spell out "Ludo." He tries to ask the disconsolate Bright if his wife had recently cashed in her life insurance, but Bright is angered by Morse's insinuation of foul play. Th chastises Morse—and brings up that he knows Morse is having an affair with a married woman, having witnessed them by the towpath. Morse and Th part on bad terms.
Yet when Thursday visits the grieving Brilliant on Christmas, Bright tells Thursday to apologize to Morse—he lost his atmosphere, and his wife did in fact greenbacks out her life policy to pay for handling in the U.S.
At dwelling, Th has received a letter from Morse via his daughter Joan. Morse apologizes to Thursday and praises him, then lays out his bear witness in the life insurance scheme—and his plan to stop it.
Returning to Venice at the New Year, Morse over again finds Violetta at the opera, and confronts her. She says she tried to tell Morse—obliquely—almost Ludo'southward wrongdoing and her forced part in it, and couldn't accept been more forthright or Ludo would have killed her. She offers to bring Ludo to Morse, as long every bit Morse gives her 24 hours before absorbing her.
She gives Morse a map of a cemetery with a coming together location. There, he finds Ludo, who has learned of Violetta'southward plan to plow him in. Ludo says Morse was supposed to be his useful policeman friend, and and then Violetta appears and he puts a gun to her head. Morse puts his gun down, and Ludo lets Violetta go.
Suddenly, Ludo moves to shoot Morse, only Violetta jumps in the way, taking the bullet. Thursday, who has followed Morse to Venice, shoots at Ludo, who flees. Cornered by Thursday on a pier, he tries to shoot Thursday but the policeman kills him showtime. Violetta dies in Morse's artillery. It'due south over.
