Dove speculates that 25 years ago Seamus killed his brother Malachy and his girlfriend Fiona Doyle and is now being busted for international eel smuggling.

Their investigation suffers a setback when two mysterious characters introduce themselves as Interpol agents warn them to stay away from Seamus.

Though Gilbert decides to follow the orders of the Interpol agents, he ends up spending his entire day with Seamus and having heartfelt conversations. This is when Gilbert starts to believe that Seamus didn't kill Malachy and Fiona.

Simultaneously, Emmy and Dove pursue another lead and gather that not Seamus but Teddy Power and Sergeant Power might be guilty.

Dove and Gilbert help Seamus get closure. They let him sneak into the room where Fiona and Malachy's decayed bodies are kept.

He can identify his dead brother via his sixth toe and wonders if the McArdle brothers killed Malachy. He soon realizes that the other body isn't Fiona's.

The discovery adds a new layer of mystery to the plot. Just when the trio believed getting close to unraveling the mystery, things got further complicated.

Mystery lingers around the dead body of the unidentified woman and what happened on Samhain night 25 years ago.

Meanwhile, suspicion grows towards Teddy and Sergeant, the father-son duo, who seem to be hiding grave secrets.

The complications escalated with Dove's editor delivering a bad news. Dove has been ordered to return to America to face charges in the whistle-blower’s suicide case.

'Bodkin' is available to stream on Netflix.
