Saint-Pierre Episode 3 Recap: The Chilling Murder of Alphonse Nova | Flickcore
A New Case Unfolds in Saint-Pierre
Detective Fitz is still adjusting to life in Newfoundland, and his dynamic with Arch is evolving rapidly. Their latest case? The brutal and bizarre murder of billionaire Alphonse Nova. In Saint-Pierre Episode 3, the duo is faced with one of their most perplexing cases yet—a beheading at a museum.
What Happened to Alphonse Nova?
The case took a dark turn when Nova was found beheaded in a local museum, executed by an actual guillotine. What made this more unsettling was the lack of any signs of struggle—did Nova willingly place his head there? The detectives were baffled. Their first lead came from Serge Corbin, the museum curator, who denied any knowledge of Nova’s presence. However, a heated argument between Nova and his son, Lucius, the day before the murder put Lucius at the top of the suspect list.
Who Were the Suspects in Nova’s Murder?
The investigation took an unexpected turn when forensic reports revealed surgical marks on Nova’s body, yet his physician denied any recent procedures. More alarming was the presence of two DNA samples at the crime scene.
Then came the reading of Nova’s will, which named his daughter, Seraphina, as the primary beneficiary. This revelation enraged Lucius, who lashed out violently. Was Seraphina responsible? Her suspicious behavior and eagerness to sell her shares just before her father’s death raised eyebrows. Meanwhile, Nova’s lawyer, Jasper Washington, got injured while trying to intervene between the siblings, adding another layer of intrigue.
The Secret Auction & Shocking Revelations
While Arch was keeping tabs on Gallagher, she uncovered a secret auction, where both Seraphina and Serge were present. The detectives soon discovered that Nova had once stolen artifacts from the museum with Serge’s help, believing insurance would cover the losses. Seraphina, however, had been trying to undo her father’s wrongs by repurchasing the stolen antiques. She insisted her actions had nothing to do with her father’s death—was she telling the truth?
How Did Fitz and Arch Solve the Case?
Fitz’s keen eye caught a discrepancy in Nova’s will—the signature was forged. The detectives traced the forgery back to Renata, Nova’s estranged wife, who harbored deep resentment toward him. A hidden document revealed that Nova had actually left his entire estate to a man named S.A. Borais.
The DNA results provided the missing piece: the second DNA at the crime scene belonged to Nova as well. How? The answer lay in a bone marrow transplant that Nova had secretly undergone. The donor? His illegitimate son, Samuel Alphonse Borais—better known as Jasper Washington.
The Killer’s Identity & Arrest
The truth unraveled—Borais had confronted Nova at the museum, seeking acknowledgment as his rightful son. But when Nova belittled him, an argument turned deadly. In a moment of blind rage, Borais pulled the guillotine’s lever, ending his father’s life. Ironically, he never knew that Nova had finally accepted him by leaving him everything.
As Fitz and Arch raced to stop Borais from fleeing Saint-Pierre, they caught him just in time. Overwhelmed by guilt, he attempted to take his own life but was stopped by the detectives. Justice was served, but the emotional scars remained.
What’s Next for Fitz and Arch?
The episode ended on a personal note. Arch revealed that her father had died before she was born, leaving an unfillable void in her life. Meanwhile, Fitz suspected his wife’s partner, Robert O’Brien, of hiding something sinister. The bond between Fitz and Arch is growing stronger—will it stand the test of time?
