So, coming into Season 2 of "The Brokenwood Mysteries,“
this time around was a little bit different
from the first season because the dynamic, obviously,
when Mike first comes into Brokenwood is quite different.
They are sussing each other out.
It's very much just kind of like
“How do we co-exist?“ type scenario.
But, you know, time's passed and solved a few murders.
They're much more comfortable around each other.
Whoever G.G. is, they didn't skimp on quality.
Demi Prive, the Rolls-Royce of women's lingerie?
Interesting.
Sorry, after however many ex-wives
did you never buy a pair of...
G.G.'? Anyone spring to mind'?
What was immediately obvious this time around
was the connection between me and Fern
and also Nic, who plays Breen, and, to a degree, Pana, as well.
[Birds chirping]
He'! -
I meant to ask, uh,
what does quantum physics have to do with gardening?
- Well, everything. -[ Glasses clink]
Quantum physics is the theory
that logically leads to the conclusion
that everything is interrelated
and that what we see with our eyes
is only a shallow outer form of a much deeper reality.
I think Mike trusts Kristin this time 'round
to be left to her own devices
and, like, trusts her with a bit more responsibility
and doesn't just leave her sit in the office
and do all the paperwork.
The thing that's really nice, actually, in that stone cabin
is she's certainly getting a sense of the town of Brokenwood
and its fabric.
You have a great day, Mrs. G.
- Mrs. G'? - Mrs. Ginsberg.
She's the new librarian. Yeah.
Gloria sorted me up this choice-ass book
on quantum physics in relation to companion planting.
SHEPHERD: Gloria?
Oh. Has the dog seen the rabbit?
I guess Brokenwood as a town
is quite a quirky little small-ish town
that has all those things that you would find in a small town
in terms of, like, little societies and clubs
and cliques of people.
So there's the, like, crochet circle, the sewing circle,
and there's the amateur dramatic society
and the Brokenwood Cheetahs, which is the rugby team.
And they're all really, I think, recognizable
no matter where you are in New Zealand or in the world.
And I love getting to know those people
because they are such -- [ Laughs]
They are so recognizable,
and they are such a source of entertainment and amusement.
I'll give you a ride home
for a couple of your famous cheese rolls.
[ Laughter]
Oh, you're a dime.
Hey, he hasn't got a car, Mrs. Marlowe.
Hey, how did you hear that, bro?
Rides his bicycle. [ Laughs]
