Pilot

Pilot is the first episode of The Villagers.

Plot
The first scene of the show focuses on the Holly household. Will Holly is seen washing his hands briefly before he sits down to tell his daughter Maddi Holly to take his youngest child, also her younger sister, Savannah Holly, to school. She does so. Will scrolls through his phone to see something about "murder gossip", which he finds interesting.

The scene switches to a police officer named Leo Goddard and a forensic called Amaya Goodwin outside a house where a crime scene took place. Amaya states that the victim's name was Percival Barker, and that he was seventy-nine years of age. The officer asks for the cause of death as she replies saying toxication. Leo questions if they're so sure he was murdered, along with that he says he could've accidentally, or on purpose, poisoned himself to death. Amaya explains that the biopsy results said that he had two glasses of alcohol, so that wouldn't have been enough to kill him. He nods in reply agreeing that they should start a murder investigation.

The Summerhayes family arrive in Robinburg Village. The matriarch Jane Summerhayes admires the surroundings, saying it is a "nice little quaint village". Later on, Will Holly and Amaya Goodwin arrive to greet their fellow new neighbors. Patriarch David Summerhayes meets Will while they share a conversation with each other. David notices that Will is a famous businessman and is fond of it. Meanwhile, Levi Summerhayes says to his sister Lucy that the Holly family are very snobby along with Lucy referencing that Maddi Holly is a "bitch". David gets mad at Will, asking why his daughter Maddi is always so rude to his children, before throwing a drink his new foe.

Keira Smythe is seen at her back garden breathing in air, whispering to herself repeatedly that she needs a drink. At the Holly household, Callum asks his sister Maddi if she is ready to go out. Sooner than she can nod, Will arrives in an angry manner. Maddi interrogates her father. In reply, he explains that he is angry because of her. She is confused.

Moments later, Callum and Maddi go out. She states that their dad can be so frustrating. Noticing they're standing outside Keira Smythe's house, she talks about how she is a "sad little alcoholic", admitting she dislikes her heavily. They go to the local pub "The Barn", leaving afore Keira comes in. She asks the bartender for vodka and is received it. She dances, and then insults Jane Summerhayes. Gossip then goes around the village when Callum and Maddi talk about her issues.

Officer Leo and Forensic Amaya continue to discuss their case. Amaya admits that it will be an extremely hard investigation, but Leo is determined to catch the killer.
