The Fall - BBC2: can someone please explain the sub-plot to me? SPOILER ALERT

[Alliwantisaroomsomewhere]

Who was the cop that shot himself in the other's office?

What is the relationship between the first missing girl and the brothel place with the coke head?

I LOVE the show but cannot get my head around the sub-plot. Hoping someone can help me?

I haven't the foggiest. Sorry. I don't get it either, even after reading the thread in telly addicts.

I had a look for a thread but could not see one!

Apologies for the duplication.

Alice Munroe is the woman whose death Stella was brought in to investigate

Her family were involved in procuring the hookers etc for the party in the suite. Her dad is on the policing board.

The cop who shot himself was the partner of the cop who had a one night stand with Stella and was then shot dead. He was having a fling with his partner's wife.

The cop who had the one night stand was somehow involved with the Munroes, hence the call from them to him to help clear up the mess when one of them had been assaulted (though he had been shot by then).

Or at least I think that is what is going on!

Is it not her husbands father on the policing board?

Ah, yes, she's a Munroe by marriage, isn't she

Thanks for the invite to the other thread! Will do so :) I found it the minute I started this one!
