The dead man's daughter, Catherine (Pamela Franklin), also believes that it was not a suicide and gives Stedman a list of her father's patients. While interviewing the patients (Jack Hawkins, Richard Attenborough, and Diane Cilento), Stedman learns that all three had secrets in their lives. Then, Stedman comes across another patient–Catherine–who finally confesses that she killed her father to prevent being sent to an institution.
