Hey, it's Shari.

0:00:03 0:00:05
So, Mimi confessed to Miss Johnson that she's the Dixi Killer.

0:00:05 0:00:08
And everyone's like, "Case closed", but I messaged her for the password

0:00:08 0:00:11
to my hacked account,

0:00:11 0:00:13
and she still hasn't replied, so I'm still locked out.

0:00:13 0:00:16
And getting my account back was the whole point of this murder hunt.

0:00:16 0:00:19
And Mimi's lied before, remember, when she said she got haxed,

0:00:19 0:00:21
so what if she's lying now too?

0:00:21 0:00:23
Then the real hacker might still be out there.

0:00:23 0:00:26
But I've got a plan. Good cop, bad cop.

0:00:27 0:00:30
-I'm only helping if I'm bad cop.

-Always with the bad cop, Eve!

0:00:30 0:00:34
-Ooo, that sounds fun. Can I join in?

-It's not fun, Isla.

0:00:34 0:00:38
We are interrogating.

0:00:38 0:00:39
OK. Can I interrogate?

0:00:39 0:00:41
You can intimidate the witness.

0:00:42 0:00:44
-What do you mean?

-You know, like, do stuff to throw her off. OK.

0:00:44 0:00:48
SHAKES RATTLE

0:00:50 0:00:52
OK, you take the camera and film.

0:00:52 0:00:54
-Hi, Shari.

-RATTLING

0:01:01 0:01:03
-Isla, what are you doing?

-I'm intimidating you.

0:01:03 0:01:06
-I'm the bad cop.

-No, no, Eve's the bad cop.

0:01:06 0:01:09
Oh, OK.

0:01:09 0:01:11
I'm the intimidating cop.

0:01:11 0:01:12
Hey, Meem.

0:01:12 0:01:14
So, all this hacking? Can't have been easy to confess?

0:01:14 0:01:19
-Brave of you.

-Woooo!

0:01:19 0:01:20
Thanks.

0:01:22 0:01:23
Right, what's going on? Why are you being so nice about it, Shari?

0:01:25 0:01:28
-I'm not being nice, I'm being GOOD...

-Oh.

0:01:28 0:01:32
I think it all seems a bit suspicious actually, Meem.

0:01:33 0:01:36
-What seems suspicious?

-It's just really suspicious.

0:01:37 0:01:42
Suspicious!

0:01:42 0:01:44
OK, Isla, you can stop being the intimidating cop now.

0:01:44 0:01:46
Good. That was very stressful.

0:01:46 0:01:49
Why didn't you reply when I asked for my account password last night?

0:01:49 0:01:52
I was busy.

0:01:52 0:01:53
Prom committee stuff.

0:01:53 0:01:54
That's true, actually, Shari. Her mum's got her doing loads.

0:01:54 0:01:57
Mimi even ran the meeting on Tuesday when Lana couldn't make it herself.

0:01:57 0:02:00
OK, Isla, you're not supposed to be supportive cop(!)

0:02:00 0:02:03
Wait...

0:02:03 0:02:04
-..you were at the prom committee on Tuesday evening?

-Yeah.

0:02:04 0:02:08
So you were at school when the posters were being put up.

0:02:08 0:02:11
Is she good cop or bad cop now?

0:02:11 0:02:13
I think she's probably both.

0:02:13 0:02:14
You don't have the passwords, do you?

0:02:14 0:02:16
Because you're not the hacker. You're making it up again!

0:02:16 0:02:19
All right, OK, fine.

0:02:19 0:02:20
I lied, I'm sorry.

0:02:20 0:02:22
I...I wanted the attention, as usual.

0:02:22 0:02:25
I'm just a stupid, silly, attention seeking liar.

0:02:25 0:02:29
Can I go now?

0:02:29 0:02:30
Just leave me alone!

0:02:31 0:02:32
Do you think she's OK? Should we...?

0:02:34 0:02:37
The best thing we can do for her is tell Miss Johnson the truth.

0:02:37 0:02:40
-She's not here.

-Well, let's go in and wait for her.

0:02:42 0:02:44
-Shari, look.

-GASPS

0:02:52 0:02:54
Woman's Budgie Lives To 25. Wow!

0:02:54 0:02:57
No, this. School budget cuts.

0:02:57 0:03:00
Drew Fletcher Academy today announced massive cuts to

0:03:00 0:03:03
teachers' jobs.

0:03:03 0:03:04
All non-essential roles, such as online safety officer, will be axed.

0:03:04 0:03:09
But if someone from the school is hacking the Dixi pages,

0:03:09 0:03:13
they can't get rid of the online safety officer.

0:03:13 0:03:16
HUGE GASP

0:03:16 0:03:18
So the person who's got the most to gain from all this hacking is

0:03:18 0:03:22
Miss Johnson!

0:03:22 0:03:23
'Yeah, LavenderWhirlingBear, I do feel kind of bad for Mimi.

0:03:28 0:03:33
'But that's why we need to uncover the truth.

0:03:33 0:03:36
'And that's me, GarnetQuirkyDove. I'm always outside the box.'

0:03:36 0:03:40
Hey, it's Shari, and we have a new prime suspect, Miss Johnson.

0:03:41 0:03:47
Turns out, school's got no money even

0:03:47 0:03:49
though I spend about a zillion pounds a year in the vending machine.

0:03:49 0:03:52
I mean, how much can whiteboards even cost?

0:03:52 0:03:54
Anyway, they're getting rid of teachers' extra jobs,

0:03:54 0:03:57
like Miss Johnson's as online security officer.

0:03:57 0:04:00
So, new theory...

0:04:00 0:04:02
Miss Johnson haxed us all

0:04:02 0:04:04
to show people how important online security is.

0:04:04 0:04:08
Which it is. I definitely get that point now.

0:04:08 0:04:11
DIAL TONE Plus...

0:04:11 0:04:13
Hey, Shari.

0:04:13 0:04:14
Eve has some new evidence.

0:04:14 0:04:15
I do, but I also have some news you might be interested in.

0:04:15 0:04:20
Zane is back in Isla's band because, after the whole dog thing,

0:04:20 0:04:23
he knows none of us were trying to set him up.

0:04:23 0:04:25
Well, that's great.

0:04:25 0:04:27
So maybe he doesn't totally hate me any more either.

0:04:27 0:04:30
I wonder if he's got a date to the prom?

0:04:30 0:04:32
He probably has, right?

0:04:32 0:04:34
I don't know. My mind reading's been a bit off lately(!)

0:04:34 0:04:37
-Good one.

-I try(!)

-Maybe I could...no!

0:04:37 0:04:39
-We'll talk about this later. Dixi's more important.

-OK, fine.

0:04:41 0:04:44
All the hacker's posts have too many Ls in the words.

0:04:44 0:04:47
-Either he can't spell, or...

-They're using a keyboard with a broken key?

0:04:47 0:04:52
BOTH: The computer room!

0:04:52 0:04:54
There are 12 computers in our school computer room.

0:04:54 0:04:58
Computer number six has a sticky L key.

0:04:58 0:05:01
You get like a million Ls a word every time you try to type.

0:05:01 0:05:04
It's so annoying.

0:05:04 0:05:06
The killer must have struck here.

0:05:06 0:05:09
Miss Johnson, in the computer room, with computer six.

0:05:09 0:05:12
It's going to be tricky to prove.

0:05:14 0:05:16
The computer room is opened with a code which only the staff know.

0:05:16 0:05:20
So, this is where I've got to,

0:05:20 0:05:22
I need to get into the computer room, check the computer log, and see

0:05:22 0:05:26
if Miss Johnson was signed in when the hacking happened.

0:05:26 0:05:29
So I need someone who can get the computer room code.

0:05:29 0:05:32
Someone who has the teachers and caretakers

0:05:32 0:05:35
wrapped totally around their little finger.

0:05:35 0:05:37
Someone with the face of an angel, and the mind of a master criminal.

0:05:37 0:05:42
Some younger viewers may find what they are about to see disturbing.

0:05:42 0:05:47
SLURPING

0:05:49 0:05:50
You're out of juice.

0:05:51 0:05:52
I hear you, AmberActingHoneyBee,

0:05:58 0:06:00
but desperate times,

0:06:00 0:06:02
call for desperate measures.

0:06:02 0:06:05
Hey, it's Shari, and this is sneaking into the computer room before school.

0:06:05 0:06:09
-Oo, did you get the code?

-Yep.

-What's her cover story?

0:06:09 0:06:13
Working on the school magazine? Research for some homework?

0:06:13 0:06:16
Um, I just told Miss Johnson I needed it.

0:06:16 0:06:19
Wow, the teachers really love you.

0:06:19 0:06:22
Um, wouldn't it be easier to just give us the code?

0:06:22 0:06:24
Maybe, but knowledge is power, that's how school works.

0:06:24 0:06:28
She's right. Knowledge IS power. That's what I always say.

0:06:30 0:06:34
Yeah, but you've got to admit, it sounds way cooler when she says it.

0:06:34 0:06:37
OK, computer six, the one with the sticky LOL key.

0:06:38 0:06:41
How are you going to prove that Miss Johnson's haxed us?

0:06:41 0:06:43
We look to see if she was signed on to this computer

0:06:43 0:06:46
at the time of the murder.

0:06:46 0:06:47
-And how are you going to do that?

-Um...

0:06:47 0:06:50
Eve?

0:06:50 0:06:52
I don't know. When did I become tech support?

0:06:52 0:06:54
We'd need her school account password.

0:06:54 0:06:57
No, we don't. She left herself logged in. Noob!

0:06:57 0:06:59
Check her internet history, and see if she was on Dixi two Fridays ago.

0:07:01 0:07:05
-She watches a lot of cat videos.

-Who doesn't?

0:07:05 0:07:09
Wait, what's that?

0:07:09 0:07:11
It's not Dixi, it's an auction site.

0:07:11 0:07:13
I know, I just want to see what she's bidding on.

0:07:13 0:07:16
A vintage jacket. It's quite cool...

0:07:16 0:07:18
..for a teacher. I might outbid her.

0:07:18 0:07:21
That's cold.

0:07:21 0:07:23
Yeah, I know.

0:07:23 0:07:24
I don't understand. There's no Dixi on her history at all.

0:07:24 0:07:27
Not on the day of the murder, not before, not after, not ever!

0:07:27 0:07:31
I'm bored of this now. So, I'm out.

0:07:31 0:07:34
Well, thanks for getting us in.

0:07:34 0:07:35
Whatevs, just remember our deal. You owe me.

0:07:35 0:07:38
I want that video done this weekend.

0:07:38 0:07:40
Oh, we don't have to dress up as plasma elves though, do we?

0:07:40 0:07:43
Not saying that I won't(!)

0:07:43 0:07:45
-Are you sure it was this computer.

-As sure as we can be.

0:07:45 0:07:49
Then somebody saw who did it.

0:07:49 0:07:50
Who? How do you know?

0:07:51 0:07:53
CCTV!

0:07:54 0:07:57
The camera feed is on the network, but...

0:07:57 0:08:00
..I can't get it through Miss Johnson's account.

0:08:00 0:08:03
We need an admin password.

0:08:03 0:08:04
Na-ah, I'm not doing anything that can be traced back to me.

0:08:04 0:08:08
It's OK.

0:08:09 0:08:11
-I have an idea.

-You think you can get an admin password(?)

-Not exactly.

0:08:11 0:08:17
But I know someone who can.

0:08:17 0:08:19
It's Zane, isn't it?

0:08:19 0:08:21
Ah, ha!

0:08:21 0:08:22
-So, are you sure he's coming?

-Yeah, but don't wind him up again.

0:08:23 0:08:26
I didn't wind him up.

0:08:26 0:08:28
You did a little bit wind him up.

0:08:28 0:08:29
That was just a misunderstanding.

0:08:29 0:08:32
I still don't understand. Not really.

0:08:32 0:08:34
-We're looking at the CCTV footage...

-I didn't say I want to understand,

0:08:34 0:08:38
just don't make Zane quit the band again.

0:08:38 0:08:40
-It was hard enough to get him to play at the prom.

-Why?

0:08:40 0:08:42
He says no-one wants a date with someone who's going to

0:08:42 0:08:44
be on stage the whole time.

0:08:44 0:08:47
No undercover filming this time?

0:08:47 0:08:48
LAUGHS NERVOUSLY That was just a misunderstanding.

0:08:48 0:08:52
Isla says you need a camera. This one's state of the art.

0:08:52 0:08:55
No, no, I don't need a camera, it's about the CCTV.

0:08:55 0:08:59
CCTV is a kind of camera.

0:09:01 0:09:03
Shari needs an admin password to see the footage.

0:09:03 0:09:06
Tricky item. It'll cost you.

0:09:06 0:09:08
There's just a lot of surveillance, negotiations, expenses, bribes...

0:09:08 0:09:12
Oh, I don't really have any money on me,

0:09:12 0:09:14
but you'd be doing me a massive favour.

0:09:14 0:09:16
-Is that how you normally do your shopping?

-No...

0:09:16 0:09:18
I'd like to buy this, thanks. That'll be £10. Oh, no, I don't

0:09:18 0:09:21
have any actual money but, you'd be doing me a massive favour(!)

0:09:21 0:09:24
Do you take thank you cards?

0:09:24 0:09:26
-Come back when you've got the cash.

-Wait!

0:09:26 0:09:28
-How about a trade?

-Keep talking.

0:09:28 0:09:31
-Erm...

-Neither of you have dates for the prom.

-Isla!

0:09:31 0:09:36
No, that, that could work.

0:09:36 0:09:37
OK, so once I type in the password there's no backing out.

0:09:41 0:09:44
So, I get a date to prom, and you're buying all the drinks and snacks.

0:09:44 0:09:47
Yeah, I said it's a deal.

0:09:47 0:09:49
OK. There's the CCTV files. What day do you want?

0:09:51 0:09:54
Er, two weeks ago today, Friday.

0:09:54 0:09:57
OK. Ah, you're out of luck. That's already been erased.

0:09:57 0:10:00
Ah, the killer has struck again!

0:10:00 0:10:02
No. They only keep a week's worth at a time.

0:10:02 0:10:05
Aaaargh!

0:10:05 0:10:06
-But a deal's a deal, right?

-Yeah, yeah, I guess.

0:10:06 0:10:09
Hey. Look at this. There's still thumbnails in the index folder.

0:10:13 0:10:17
There's a frame from everyday used as a cover photo for each file.

0:10:18 0:10:22
It's not exactly the right time, but it's the right day.

0:10:22 0:10:25
Oh, it's too blurry. Can you enhance it?

0:10:26 0:10:28
What is this, CSI Dixi?

0:10:28 0:10:31
All right, then, make it bigger.

0:10:31 0:10:33
OK.

0:10:33 0:10:34
THEY GASP

0:10:36 0:10:37
No, it can't be!

0:10:37 0:10:38
But it is.

0:10:38 0:10:39
It's Zane!

0:10:39 0:10:42
Do you need a new pencil case?

0:10:48 0:10:50
An unlimited pass to Laser Maze?

0:10:50 0:10:51
Passwords to your teachers' e-mail accounts?

0:10:51 0:10:54
Just ask Zane. I can get you anything.

0:10:54 0:10:56
Zane, I need a pair of shin pads, a pack of 2B pencils

0:10:57 0:11:01
and a permission slip for the school trip.

0:11:01 0:11:03
I'm on it.

0:11:03 0:11:05
Seriously, use your brain, just ask Zane.
