The Bridge

You're listening to Talk FM

and we're coming onto 4.15 in the AM.

If you're on the road right now

keep those eye open.

And remember...

caffeine is your friend!

Up next we have a caller asking

what to do when their boss

can't leave well enough alone.

Looks like they're looking to vent.

You've called the right station.

Here at Talk FM, we don't just talk.

We also listen.

I'm sorry, this is a restricted area.

Officer Megat, ICD.

The what?

ICD, International Crimes Division.

When it comes to crimes

that affect multiple countries

they call us.

Oh, that's why she's here.

She walked

straight to the crime scene.

Singapore ICD. Thank you.

Hello, Officer Meg... - This woman

is Singaporean.

Her name is Monica Lee

a public prosecutor.

This case belongs to Singapore ICD

so...

you and your men can leave.

You know I'd love to.

In fact, my wife would really

appreciate me coming home

for a change.

As you can see the body lies on the

border between our two countries.

She may be Singaporean, but...

her body...

Part of her body

was found here in Malaysia.

So you wish to take custody

of the bottom half?

That seems impractical.

Tell you what...

let me call my Captain and...

we'll work this out, alright?

Sir.

Are you really

waking up your supervisor?

What are you crazy

it's almost five in the morning.

You're one of a kind.

Any chance to annoy

a Singaporean right?

Yes sir. Thank you sir.

Okay.

The body's yours.

Or you want something more official?

We Malaysian ICD

hereby releases this case

into your custody.

Okay listen up.

Once you're done shooting the scene

hand it over to evidence collection.

Let's just get this body

back for processing.

Do you have a cause of death?

I'll need to run more tests

for official cause of death, but...

as for time of death

it's eight to ten hours.

That not why you call me, right?

You are the only officer

who looks them right in the eyes.

The dead don't bother me.

The living...

that's another story.

Lividity on the ears.

Consistent with a body

drained of blood.

Swelling of the face.

Petechiae of her facial skin.

Subepicardial, subpleural.

I would say she was

suffocated and then cut in two

post-mortem.

This scar.

You see it?

The skin tone of the bottom half

of the body is different

from the top half.

Feel them.

They've been frozen.

I would estimate about six months.

And the DNA report came back.

This is Monica Lee.

But this...

She's not in our database.

Whoever she is

she's not a Singaporean.

So...

this is not one murder victim.

It's two.

Daniel.

Daniel!

Daniel you forgot

to upload the Clarence Richmond

article last night! - Not so loud!

I'm dying here Seet Yan.

It's not my fault

I didn't have my laptop.

So where is it?

In my car.

The article Daniel.

Not your laptop. - Well

the article's in my laptop

so they're both in my car, which is…

here? Oh yeah that's right

I left my car here last night.

What you think I should

have driven home drunk?

That would be irresponsible Seet Yan.

You know what, forget it!

Irresponsible.

Two words, Clarence Richmond.

Alright. - You write it.

It's so nice of you

to come to work drunk

again by the way. - You write it.

Everything's going to be alright.

The case will be over soon.

I'm sure you're right.

I'm ready.

You don't have to do this you know.

But you want me to.

Excuse me madam

but the driver is here.

Thanks Sumi, we'll be right down.

Alright madam.

Hey, how are you?

Okay. - Come on, let's go.

Alright.

Hey wait! - What?

Is that the prosecutor?

I thought Monica Lee

was in charge of this case?

Well it's kind of

a last minute replacement.

They're being quite hush-hush...

Alan, that's not good enough!

Don't touch me.

Calm down.

They're going to bring up

the land deal on the Lee estate.

You know, the one that you

put in Michelle's name.

That was supposed to be

off the table!

New prosecutor. New rules.

Okay fine.

Michelle will testify.

Wait Clarence.

Let's just think about this first.

We're going to lose everything.

Is that what you want?

We'll say that buying the land

was her idea.

I knew nothing about it.

I can't be a party to perjury.

We're paying you

a great deal of money.

Or maybe we should

take our business somewhere else?

Yes, I think we should. Let's go.

Alright fine.

I'll do it.

I just have to inform the others.

You two get on home.

You'll be called in for deposition

maybe tomorrow or the day after.

Okay?

Yummy.

Stop it.

I need to get the kids to school.

And then I have to go to the office.

Just call in sick.

After all you're the boss.

Why?

So I can listen to you snore all day?

I don't snore. I just breathe

very heavily in my sleep.

Oh really? Well you breathing

could wake the dead.

How are the kids?

All Imran...

does is talk about

his birthday party.

So now Farid wants to

know when it's his turn.
