Bread Eggs Milk Squick is more accurate to the conversation than 'the inverse of Arson Murder Jaywalking,' as the former is the actual inverse of the latter by definition

'''The Dogleg Murders''' is the first episode of the twelfth series of ''Series/MidsomerMurders'' and originally aired on 19th March 2009.
Bullying snob Alistair Kingslake is killed with a golf iron at the Whiteoaks golf club. After another member, Miles Tully, tells Barnaby about illegal gambling among players, another member, who has had an 'odd phone call' is also slain. A figure in a blue tracksuit is seen at both murders. In fact, there have been unreported assaults on members over the months. Barnaby discovers that the gambling is rife and the social-climbing steward, Mrs. Fountain, and her two warring sons are lending money to the gamblers and assaulting them if they fail to pay. Indeed Mrs. Fountain's scheming has driven the killer to commit The Dogleg Murders.

* LoanShark: Whiteoaks Golf Club steward Eileen Fountain has loaned huge sums of money at exorbitant interest rates to many of the club's members to cover illegal gambling debts; if they fall behind on their payments, she sends her son Colin after them to beat them up.
* TheUnfavorite: Eileen Fountain has two sons; her older son Colin is a groundskeeper, while her younger son Darren is a golf instructor. Eileen dreams of Darren being accepted as a full member of the golf club and dating the owner's daughter (to whom he is giving golf lessons) and has blackmailed most of the membership committee into approving his membership while she drills him in which cutlery he will be expected to use at the ceremonial dinner. Colin, however, is the DumbMuscle in her loan organisation, and he is treated with utter contempt and fed beans on toast while Darren eats the sort of food he will have at the golf club.
