Production Photos
 |
| Mrs. Rogers (Devan Hawkins, left), Narracott (Richard Fulton) and Rogers (Matthew Meyer, right), prepare for the arrival of multiple guests to Soldier Island. |
 |
| The first two arrivals, the secretary Vera Claythorne (Lisa-Marie Castro) and Captain Phillip Lombard (Taran Haynes), begin a flirtatious relationship. |
 |
| Since her boss, Mrs. Owen, has not yet arrived on the island, Vera officially welcomes all of the other guests, including Emily Brent (Elena Peyton Jones). |
 |
| The guests go off to dress for dinner, and the servants discuss the odd assortment. |
 |
| A late arrival, Doctor Armstrong (Angela Colavecchio, right) is greeted by W.H. Blore (Mary Alley). |
 |
| While they have drinks before the meal is served, a recording booms out of the study, blaming each guest for having caused someone's death. |
 |
| Justice Wargrave (Isaac Kumpula, center) undertakes an inquiry. Each guest is required to respond to the claims in the recording and to account for how he or she came to the island. Here, Anthony Marston (Matthew Cochrane) looks over an invitation letter. |
 |
| Lombard insists there's something shady about Blore, who then reveals herself to be a woman and a detective. |
 |
| As they all prepare to go to bed, Marston begins to gag and choke. He falls dead, the first of many victims. |
 |
| The next day, they all prepare to leave the island, but the boat never comes. Nerves are increasingly frayed, especially once Mrs. Rogers is found dead. Vera, who has endured repeated harassment from Emily, finally confronts her. |
 |
| Blore and Lombard continue their antagonism. Throughout the day, General MacKenzie, Rogers, and Emily Brent are all murdered. |
 |
| The generator runs out of fuel, and the survivors wait by candlelight for day to come. After a clever ruse, everyone is plunged into the dark and Justice Wargrave's body is discovered. |
 |
| Vera has a fit of panic. |
 |
| The next morning, Armstrong goes missing and the others believe her the murderer. Blore is killed, and as Lombard examines her body, he also discovers Armstrong's body. He returns, knowing that only he and Vera remain on the island. |
 |
| Certain Vera is the killer, he prepares to defend himself. |
 |
| Vera, certain that Lombard is the murderer, wrests the gun from him and shoots him. |
 |
| Wargrave then appears to announce that he faked his death, and that he will now kill Vera. |
 |
| The two struggle. |
 |
| Just as Wargrave has the upper hand and Vera is sure she will die, Wargrave is shot. Lombard has come around and shot him. |
 |
| The survivors discuss their near brush with death. |
