Haven't I told you?

When my late mom

went into labour...

she was on my dad's

fishing boat.

They were on their way

to the Saint Apostoles fair.

That's why I was

named after him.

By the passage

of Dionysis the Lop-sided.

What time is it?

What is it, granddad?

I have work to do!

- Food is ready!

- I'm coming!

Granddad!

I'm sorry I yelled at you.

Mister Themistoklis,

sorry to bother you...

but I'm going to the market.

Do you want anything?

Are you sleeping?

Mister Themistoklis?

Mister Themistoklis?

- What are talking about?

- What can I tell you, chief?

This crazy woman

was mumbling over the phone!

I only understood,

that he's dead.

- In his bed?

- I didn't ask.

Do you think

he was killed?

Yes, they killed him to

make ice cream of him.

How should I know, you fool!

We'll find out.

She said she also called

the doctor.

Hurry up! She is capable

of calling the coast guard.

Don't laugh.

Go fetch the police car.

I'm going.

That's all we need.

What a misfortune!

What do you think, doc?

When I arrived,

he was already dead.

My first impression is

he died of natural causes.

You shouldn't have

moved him in my absence.

Has it been long,

since he died?

Mister Themistoklis!

Do you rule out

a crime?

I doubt it was a crime.

I can't say more before I have

the results of the autopsy.

Do as you wish,

but do it fast.

The boys?

Tell me, why

you called the coast guard?

I was all alone, so I thought...

To call the whole party.

Since they were here...

they helped me to put him

in the stretcher.

And they will help to

take him to the infirmary.

The ambulance's

cog rail is broken.

What is a "cog rail"?

Leave it, Olympia.

You go with them and

stay there, until I say so.

Yes, sir.

How did this happen?

When did this happen?

Mr Dikaios is gone, mayor!

He left me all alone!

Why?

If you don't stop shouting,

I will shoot you!

Chief, leave her.

Respect her feelings.

What can we do, Olympia?

That's the way things are.

Girl, calm down.

I'm here for you.

- Did you find him?

- Yes.

He was sitting on the porch,

sipping his tea.

I went to ask

if he wanted anything...

but he was...

- How long ago?

- About 2 hours ago.

- This was down...

- You touched it?

No, I picked it up

with my eye.

Black humor!

- Did he see anyone today?

- No.

Are you sure?

You are insulting me.

I would have known it.

Olympia, knows everything.

- What was in the tea?

- Tea.

I boiled it for him.

There is some left,

if you want to see.

If you don't need me,

I will be going.

Don't disappear.

I'm gonna need you

for the investigation.

Why? Don't tell me

I'm also a suspect?

Of course! You were the last
