Max and Miranda help locate a murder suspect who has been on the run
Miranda Blake: You said English tea, right?
Max Winter: No, because I live to disappoint you.
Max and Miranda receive a tip-off that the British main suspect in a murder that took place on the island four years ago is back to visit his dying father. Inés tries to keep them in a minor role since the victim was Spanish, but Miranda can't keep out of it and ends up cracking the case, getting herself and then Max into grave danger in the process.
Tropes
- Brits Love Tea: Miranda is disgusted by what is passed off for tea on the island.
- Conveniently Placed Sharp Thing: Miranda has a pocket knife on her, which Max uses to set them both free.
- Dirty Cop: The retired detective is interested in the case for selfish reasons.
- Foreign Queasine: Miranda is horrified at Max's Rohwurst schnittfest and Bierocks. She later asks if the drink he has brought her is 'some German delicacy made from distilled sauerkraut'.
- Impersonating an Officer: Charlie King uses a fake police ID.
- It's Personal: The murder victim turns out to have been Carmen's best friend, making this personal for Max.
