White Lies season 1 episode 3 drops next Thursday, December 12, 2024, for the US and Canadian viewers, only on Sundance Now and AMC+. The next episode of the South African series is expected to up the ante when it comes to mystery and tension as Edie Hansen's brother's murder investigation continues.
So far, after the back-to-back episodes in the premiere, there are two prime suspects for Andrew's murder—his two kids, Daniel and Jamie. While Detective Forty Bell is adamant about finding evidence that will implicate the kids, especially Daniel, Edie isn't convinced that her nephews could have killed their father.
Edie spent the first two episodes of the series looking for persons who could provide relevant information as to what happened during the day of the murder. So far, she's found the house helper, Pearl, and the homeless man called Banjo. In White Lies season 1 episode 3, Edie and Forty Bell's investigation will likely continue, but more danger and mystery looms after Daniel gets kidnapped.

A brief recap of White Lies season 1 episode 1 & 2
While Lies debuted on Sundance Now and AMC+ with back-to-back episodes. In episode 1, titled Tabula Rasa, the show kicked off with Andrew, a wealthy construction businessman, getting murdered in his home. His wife, Olivia, was also injured during the incident, ending her in a coma. Meanwhile, the children, Daniel and Jamie, who ran away and hid after seeing their father's dead body without calling for help, became prime suspects.
Andrew's estranged sister, Edie Hansen, an investigative journalist, tried to clear her nephews' names. However, her first attempt at finding the suspect, the house helper Pearl, who was trying to escape to Zimbabwe, backfired. Pearl told Detective Forty Bell that he saw Daniel with the gun.
By episode 2, titled Hide in Plain Sight, Pearl had confessed that she lied and that while she heard a gunshot, she didn't see Daniel with the gun. However, Daniel and Jamie had already been arrested, and the detective was eager to prove that Daniel was the murderer.
Episode 2 also saw Edie investigating another avenue that could help the case, a homeless man named Banjo who lives in the woods. He could have seen what happened during the murder, and so she went to the mountainside to find him. They met after Banjo saved Edie from a thief, and when she asked him about the murder, he mentioned something about a "white boy." Meanwhile, Daniel was abducted by masked assailants.
What to expect in White Lies season 1 episode 3
White Lies season 1 episode 3 is titled I Believe the Children Are Our Future, which could be referencing the kids in the series. Daniel and Jamie who, besides grieving their father's death, have to feel the burden of their mother being in a coma and being accused of murdering their father.
Moreover, the official logline provides more context for what viewers can expect from the next episode. After Daniel gets kidnapped in the final scenes of episode 2, Forty Bell is expected to halt his search for evidence proving Daniel is the murderer, at least for the time being. It's because he's going to be spending time looking and rescuing Daniel himself from the drug gang that abducted him.
Meanwhile, Edie is in for a massive surprise about her nephew. Whether it's about Daniel or Jamie will play out in the next episode, but the episode synopsis teases that the shocking discovery happened at a Bishopcourt s*x party.
