Episode 5.5 [Rewatch]

[A Cousin]

I was able to explain the cadaver, its Ros & Zaf getting into Maudsley's house I can't explain. Not that I need to. Some things you just have to let go. I thought maybe Ros picked the lock? But if she did, it took her one turn to do so. Ruth definitely locks it when she leaves.

Another question he brought up was how much did Harry know going into identifying Ruth's body? Mr AC thinks that the faking of Ruth's death and/or the acquisition of the cadaver would have had to have been vetted through him to happen at all so he must have known it wasn't Ruth before he got to the morgue. My take is that, while he may have hoped or even suspected, he did not know, given his reaction to the phone call, because it all happened while he was in custody. Adam arranged it all. Mr AC thinks that Harry's reaction to identifying the cadaver is an act. For whom? I say. Adam? The Morgue attendant? I think he did not know it wasn't Ruth until the sheet was removed. At which point, he twigs to what they have done and goes with it. What do you think?

Oh, Mr AC loved the dock scene. In our family, I'm the pragmatist and he's the romantic. When Ruth stopped Harry from verbally expressing the something wonderful, he blurted out, "That's it. Say it with a kiss." Good man!
