　　Morse is taken seriously ill at a museum reception and is hospitalized. In the hospital, Supt. Strange, visits Morse to push him to take early retirement, while Dr. Millicent 'Millie' Van Buren gives him her book on a 140 year-old court case known as the Oxford Canal Murders. The case involved the murder and rape of a young woman, Mrs Joanna Franks, traveling by canal boat from Coventry to London. The case resulted in three boatmen being sentenced to death and two of them hanged. Morse starts to read Millie's book and dreams about it. He soon has a number of problems with the case.
　　Why weren't the three men also charged with theft? Why did Mrs Franks take a boat instead of a train that was much faster and comfortable and only slightly more expensive? Why didn't she abandon the boat after she complained about lewd behavior of the crew at the shipping office in Banbury? Why did she then drink and 'socialise' with the crew? What happened to her 'carpet bag' with which she arrived on the boat but which was not mentioned in the court case, nor was it stored in the archives with her, almost empty, trunk? The trunk was marked with initials of her first husband who had died. How did it happen that her shoes were found on the boat but nobody saw her return to the boat from the forest?
　　PC Adrian Kershaw does some brilliant leg work for Morse. He studied history and has invaluable background knowledge. For instance, he mentions that the boatmen had bad reputation because they worked on Sundays and did not attend church. Later a chapel was built for them in Oxford.
　　The dead woman's clothes and the shoes found on the boat are submitted to modern forensic investigation. The result is that the shoes did not belong to the dead woman found in the water because she was much taller.The shoes were never used in the forest.
　　Only Mrs Franks' husband, Charles Franks, was called to identify the body of the dead woman. He claimed that, while her face was darkened and disfigured, he found a birth mark behind her ear. The prosecutor welcomed that information "that only a husband or a lover would know". The accused were not shown the body. The defense attorney merely claimed that the guilt of the three men was not proved. All three accused claimed to the end that they were innocent. One of them was not executed because he embraced Christianity in prison.
　　Morse instructs Kershaw to investigate if Charles Franks benefited from his wife's death and, indeed, he pocketed 300 pounds insurance money. Case closed: Charles Franks murdered a tall women and dropped her in the canal after meeting Joanna in the forest. If Joanna Franks jumped off the boat at the same time as the dead body hit the water, she swam to the bank and joined her husband. The couple changed their names, in the case of 'Charles Franks' a second time after he 'died' as Joanna's first husband. The fourth boatman, a youngster who was not charged, was probably paid by Joanna to give false testimony.
　　Morse travels to Ireland and has a grave of Joanna's first husband exhumed. The coffin contains bags of sand and some stones.

　　或许有不少朋友会抱怨《绯闻女孩 Gossip Girl》第二季结束得甚是匆忙，但不管怎样有一点Josh却处理得相当成功，那就是本季结局留下了诸多悬念和足够的噱头，Chuck和Blair的爱情长跑是否已经修成正果？“小魔女”Georgina是否会掀起新一轮“血雨腥风”？当然GG粉们或许只有等到九月剧集回归才能得知确切答案。不过幸运的是，对于那些已然等之不及的朋友来说，《绯闻女孩 Gossip Girl》的主演们还是给我们带来了一些有关第三季的剧透。
　　大家最想知道的应该就是Chuck和Blair这对目前最受欢迎情侣档的前景吧，当那三个掷地有声的字被反复说出后，事情将会如何发展？
　　在剧中扮演Blair一角的Leighton Meester称自己也不确定前路会有什么在等待着这对刚刚携手的情侣，不过曲折和纠结只怕在所难免。
　　“就我个人而言，当然是很希望他们俩能在一起，但有一点却不得不承认，Chuck和Blair这一对之所以如此受欢迎不正是因为他们俩曾经的若即若离带来的强大化学效应吗？” Leighton接着说道，“CB手牵手，一起看电影，再配上点爆米花。这一切听起来是不是不怎么真实，甚至有些幻灭？当然轰轰烈烈，一波三折的爱情只怕大多都是捏造出来的，不过随之而来的效应不正是剧集所需要的嘛。”
　　另外，主演Blake Lively和Leighton Meester均一致认为“小魔女”Georgina的回归会给Chuck和Blaire的未来蒙上阴影。
　　“Chuck和Blair终于走到了一起，但同时手段了得的Georgina也告别了上帝，背负着难以抑制的复仇欲强势归来，只怕一场新的复仇大战即将上演。”
　　当然喜欢“BC配”且不再希望被“折腾”的粉丝们也不用过于担忧，因为其实，时至今日Georgina的扮演者Michelle Trachtenberg是否会在第三季中回归或者是否会有足够戏份闹个“天翻地覆”尚未可知，这位前《吸血鬼猎人巴菲 Buffy The Vampire Slayer》女星目前已加盟NBC电视网最新医务剧《Mercy》，而该剧已获NBC预定，将于今秋播出。
　　与此同时，Meester还爆出了另一则重磅消息，或许又将在上东区激起不小的波澜：“有几位演员要去上大学了，我不知道他们是否还会留下来。”难道这意味着有人将要离开《绯闻女孩Gossip Girl》剧组？
　　另悉，刚刚在季末现身的Dan和Serena同父异母/同母异父的兄弟Scott可能也不是什么“省油的灯”，他飘忽不定的眼神里是否充满了故事，别忘记他也姓Humphrey。他的出现会在Lily和Rufus之间掀起怎样的轩然大波，又会给“不甘寂寞”的上东区带来怎样的“惊喜”？
　　最后还不得不再补充一点，那就是在第三季中将有一位一直相当出彩抢镜的演员戏份将增加，她就是“迷”一般的Dorota，目前为止，Blair的这位操一口波兰语的女仆看上去完全受控于Blair，对Blair忠心不二，不过透过Dorota那看起来顺从无比的眼神，是否看到了一丝扑朔迷离？
