'Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries' Season 1 Finale Recap: "King Memses' Curse"
Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries usually starts with a cold open, but an embalming tool up the nose of a man to pull out his brain while still alive is extreme. But these are extreme times, as Phryne is unable to calm down after Foyle gaining entry into her home at the end of the previous episode. The house is in an uproar Cec and Bert have one clue Foyle left in their cab. It's an Egyptian-themed card for "Albert's Antiques & Curiosities," located where Foyle's old antique shop used to be.
Miss Fisher: My sins are too many and varied to mention, and frankly, I intend to continue sinning, so I won't waste your time.
The shop is where we saw the man murdered at the top of the episode. He was proprietor Albert Monkton; Fisher recognizes him as one of the defense witnesses at Foyle's trial. Foyle broke into a cabinet too and left a photo tacked up in the backroom with the murder weapon. It features Foyle, Albert, and three others at an archeological dig. Once home, Fisher sends Bert to accompany Dot to see if they can figure out what Foyle stole. For once, Fisher's keeping the photo and murder weapon from Jack is being repaid in kind. This is the second death through the nose Robinson's seen this week.
