Tidy with a Promise for More

Part two of the final episode of Season 12 of the Murdoch Mysteries is a fairly tidy resolution of the dark and darker penultimate episode. There are plenty of twists and turns balanced with some series predictability, red herrings galore, and promise for both good and bad on the horizon. Not brilliant, but a good fun ride. More importantly, it was a largely satisfying episode both as the completion of a two-part arc and of a season. Worth a watch.

Trivia
When Watts is warming up at the end of the episode, he introduces himself to another runner who says his name is Thomas Longboat. Longboat (1887-1949) was an Onondaga distance runner from the Six Nations Reserve near Brantford, Ontario. He was a very successful, and, for much of his career, was the dominant long-distance runner. He was known as the "bulldog of Britannia" and was a soldier in the Canadian Expeditionary Force during the First World War. (Wikipedia)

Quotes
Violet Hart: Detective.
Detective William Murdoch: Miss Hart.
Detective William Murdoch: Are you happy with your choice?
Violet Hart: What choice?
Detective William Murdoch: To be city coroner.
Violet Hart: Of course! This is all I've wanted for the last two years.
Detective William Murdoch: Now, there's just something about all this that never added up. Inspector McWorthy was killed because he had turned on the Carmichaels.
Violet Hart: I suppose he made the wrong choice.
Detective William Murdoch: That's just it. He made his decision prior to the bullet fragment being planted in Lucille Palmer's body. He was left out of the cover-up.
Violet Hart: He had the key to the cold storage room. Who else could have done it?
Detective William Murdoch: I can think of only one person.
Violet Hart: Well, they should be arrested. If you can prove it.
Detective William Murdoch: I can't. And perhaps never will.
Violet Hart: A shame.
Detective William Murdoch: Shame indeed. Good day, Miss Hart.
