Ludwig Solves a Murder Close to Home in the Season Finale
It’s always the ones you least suspect, as the season finale of Ludwig kicks off with a shocking plot twist. The previous episode ended with Holly calling Lucy, saying she needed to speak to her about her husband. But if you thought we would see that meeting, you were wrong. Instead, the opening shot is of Holly’s dead body. It gets worse: Lucy is in front of a police car holding a bloody knife. EEEEK!
Ludwig is bringing Lucy coffee in the morning (or so he thinks!) when the doorbell rings. DCS Shaw is at his doorstep to tell him that not only is Holly dead, but that his wife has been arrested on suspicion of murder. At the station, Carter thinks it must be a mistake. All Ludwig wants to do is see Lucy, but you can’t really let a Detective see his wife, who is also the main suspect. “That can’t be right. This can’t be real,” Ludwig says.
Carter is interrogating Lucy, who only wants to talk to her husband. “I have been arrested for the murder of your colleague... I just need to speak to somebody I know, please,” she begs. Carter says that can’t happen, but goes to get a drink of water, leaving behind his phone on the table. Lucy phones Ludwig and tells him it has to be deliberate that someone framed her.
