'Ridley' Season 2's Third Mystery Asks "Who's 'A Fool for Love?'"

The latest episode of Ridley, “Fool For Love,” opens with two very different celebrations. A well-heeled crowd gathers to celebrate the engagement of Oliver Grant (Rishi Ruan) and Amelia Mellor (Ellise Chappell); meanwhile, a rave at a condemned building slated for demolition and development wildly parties through the night. The current CEO of Grant Construction and Development, Oliver’s mother, Sarita (Sudha Bhuchar), announces that Oliver will replace her when she resigns at the end of the year. Oliver's brother, Lewis Grant (Danyal Ismail), looks on as family and guests applaud. Oliver receives a call about work, apologizes to his fiancee, and leaves the party.

The following day, Carol Farman prepares a special breakfast for her son Jack, hoping to have a heart-to-heart. However, he doesn’t want to talk, although he promises to catch up with her later. Ridley is at home, asleep on his sofa, when he receives a call from Carol that they’ve got a new case they want him on. Oliver was found dead from gunfire at the rave, his wallet untouched, although his torn shirt indicates a struggle.

Ridley and Carol visit the Grant family, who claim they were worried that Oliver had not returned by morning, though not concerned enough to call the police. Lewis, now the family spokesman, agrees that these unauthorized raves at building sites are problematic before asking the police for privacy for the family. Carol and Ridley noticed that Lewis, who displayed some resentment about his lack of involvement with the family business, was also conspicuously absent in the display of family photographs.
