Extended Summary
It seems as if Gary has jumped off the cliff as a suicide attempt. Alf witnesses it and tells Jeff that he should go down to the police station. Jeff discovers Gary is dead.
Carly acts strangely when she finds out Gary is dead. Steven doesn’t seem to be that bothered.
Alf reckons someone has pushed Gary off the cliff.
Alison accuses Carly of pushing Gary off the cliff and how she could have done it – there is a black and white footage showing Carly pushing Gary off the cliff after a heated discussion. Carly insists she didn’t do it.
Steven reverses the situation back to Alison instead and how she could have been responsible – more black and white footage is shown with her pushing Gary off the cliff after a discussion.
Celia talks to Phil and more black and white footage is shown with another possibility on Gary’s death. There is also footage showing Gary and Phil fighting up on the cliff and Gary being thrown off the cliff.
In a newspaper, there is a photo of Gary alongside a headline, “Man pushed to death”.
Jeff looks at a photo of Gary. He destroys it and the newspaper with the article too. He seems more angry than sad.
Two police investigators are up on the cliff to search for clues. They discover an earring.
In the next scene, Carly sits and hold the same kind of earring (Emotional music plays)
