Original subtitles

‐ I keep thinking about Amy.

My friend died 10 years ago today.

‐ This is Gema.

She'll be doing work experience with us

for the next two weeks.

‐ It looks like nepotism.

‐ It is nepotism.

‐ I've discovered Gareth's porn.

It's the kind of porn he watches.

It's not nice.

‐ Have you told Luke?

He was very fond of that cat.

Have you thought about giving things another go?

‐ No.

‐ Owen's not screwing Sam, your husband is.

‐ [Maya] How old were you when the relationship

with Hugh started?

‐ 16.

‐ Doesn't sound consensual to me.

‐ Consent? (scoffs)

I didn't consent to nothing.

‐ I have been diagnosed with perimenopause.

‐ You hired a whistle‐blower.

‐ Why are we paying someone who knowingly supplied

illegal drugs to underaged girls?

‐ You have no idea what I have been through to get this far.

‐ Same thing Tess went through, Amy, God knows who else?

(hand slapping)

‐ What do you remember about that night?

If you know something, you need to tell me.

‐ Tell me, tell us about Amy, Sam.

You found her body too, didn't you?

What did we do to you?

‐ Are you okay?

Because that's two people you've found dead.

This must be affecting you.

How's your mental health?

‐ (chuckles) The world is on fire, kids are in cages,

the governments are shambles, I mean,

we're all gonna die because of climate change

or a mutating virus, more than 200 women get killed

every week, and we're told to flag down

our sodding boss if we feel unsafe.

We're all struggling with mental health,

all of us.

(light music)

‐ I can't believe you making me come in on my birthday.

‐ It's a school of life, Gem.

No one gives a shit about the individual,

except as a tiny cog in the crushing machine of capitalism.

Get used to it.

(compelling music)

(card reader beeping)

Meet you up there.

(card reader beeping)

Right.

‐ Oh, you've made me lose me bour bon!

‐ All all the entry records kept in here?

‐ Yes, all computerised.

‐ How far back does it go?

‐ Stored on the Cloud for a few months till they're deleted,

six if you're lucky.

‐ How about really old stuff?

‐ How old are we talking?

‐ 10, 12 years?

‐ There's a drawer over there full of rubbish.

I don't even know if they're still working.

It was a very antiquated system till 2014.

Yeah, it was me that digitalized everything.

‐ Was it, now?

‐ Yep, it's my job to be the eyes and ears of this place.

Can't put a price on what I do.

‐ 22K here.

‐ Don't you start.

I found that new woman in here,

asking exactly what it is I do.

Acts like I'm disposable one minute, the next thing,

she's begging me to pull up records

to check who's been late.

She's a bit of a Nazi,

bit attractive, though, don't get me wrong, but not my type.

I prefer blondes.

(tense music)

‐ Our admissions document is nearly complete.

In a couple of week, we can announce the IPO,

and then after that, go on a two week road show

to meet potential investors.

‐ I want you to and Owen to take the lead on the roadshow.

‐ What about me?

‐ Stay here, and don't touch anything.

‐ No pyjama parties or snuggles

in the Holiday Inn for you, Sam.

‐ Ooh, don't get any ideas.

‐ I'll pack my teddy bear my grammy made.

Please don't worry.

‐ Anything else?

‐ That's it.

‐ Good.

Well, things seem to be moving, so let's keep

the momentum going, and I'll check in

towards the end of the week.

Don't mess this up, Sam.

(Sam clears her throat)

‐ Are we having a bonding moment?

‐ The Maya Hugh situation.

‐ You told me that was under control.

‐ It is.

She's distracted by this dead cat of hers.

‐ Tell me you didn't kill the cat.

‐ No, I didn't kill the bloody cat,

but something's come up.

‐ What's wrong?

‐ I found this,

entry records.

Amy came back here before she died.

‐ Amy never left the club.

‐ Hugh was lying.

‐ Well, maybe she left something here, her coat.

Maybe someone took her key fob that night.

‐ Well, we can't just sit on this.

Shouldn't we hand it over to the police?

‐ Oh, I'll handle it.

Is there a digital copy of this?

‐ It's on a CD rom in my office.

‐ Keep it safe, get it to me when you can.

Don't worry about this, concentrate on the IPO.

Leave the past alone.

Think we've bonded enough for today.

‐ Really?

After decades together?

I think we're just getting to know one another.

‐ [Instructor] That's it.

Now, if you can all make your way up to a seated position.

Now, relax your shoulders.

‐ You did great.

‐ It's 10 days, no booze.

‐ Tess, that is amazing!

‐ [Instructor] Close up the eyes if it helps you to focus.

(Maya and Tess laughing quietly)

So Lucy got back to me,

said she'd be happy to meet you at an AA meeting today

if you want.

I could drop you off,

(light music)

or tomorrow,

Thursday? ‐ Okay.

I'm not committing to anything

other than one little meeting, though.

‐ Okay.

(both chuckling)

(light music)

‐ If you and your husband divorce, you'll be entitled

to spousal support, division of assets,

and a substantial amount in child support.

I know you mentioned his net worth over the phone,

but do you have reason to believe he might try and fudge

his income, or there might be any hidden assets

you don't know about?

‐ He's talked about floating the company, you know?

Like, on the stock exchange.

‐ When?

‐ A few weeks.

‐ You'd be wise to hold off on filing until after the IPO.

‐ I don't really care about the money.

‐ I understand, but you have to think

about your daughter's future if it's a matter of weeks.

‐ (sighs) Okay.

‐ Do some digging, Carys.

I've done this job for a long time.

Men like Gareth, they hide things.

‐ What are you interested in, Gemma?

You know, what are you like, passionate about?

‐ Animal rights, environmental activism,

destruction of the patriarchy, dismantling white supremacy.

‐ We have a lot in common.

(Gemma scoffs)

No, look,

when I was in school,

people would take the piss out of anyone

who was different, too gay, too thin, too far, too chubby,

but the world's moved on.

We've embraced difference, and we reflect that

in our advertising campaigns.

Young people like you are showing us this is a way forward.

‐ I think you've been misled about my generation.

‐ You know, having someone like you on the team,

with your kind of ideas could really shake

things up around there.

You could go to uni, and get into debt,

or you could get a job here.

‐ Thanks, but I'm more into revolution.

‐ Come here.

I wanna show you what we have been working on.

(knocking on door)

‐ Oh, am I interrupting?

‐ (chuckles) Go on, trouble, get out of here.

‐ Here, preliminary timetable for the roadshow.

‐ Well, this is not what we discussed.

‐ I've made some changes.

(cell phone buzzing)

It's Adam's school.

I'm just gonna step out a sec.

‐ Just take the day off.

‐ No, it's fine.

(cell phone buzzing)

I'll switch off.

‐ Go home.

You're not focused.

We can manage without you.

‐ No, I'm all yours.

Let's go through the timetable.

‐ Numbing cream starting to work?

‐ Think so.

So today we're doing the laser skin‐tightening treatment?

‐ Yes.

I thought I'd step it up a bit.

‐ I wouldn't often say this, but you could totally afford

to just leave this treatment for another year.

‐ I'm not paying you for an opinion.

‐ Of course, you won't regret it.

Bit of a strange burning sensation with the laser,

but worth it to get that collagen kick‐started.

‐ Fry me like bacon.

(indistinct chatter) (light music)

‐ Amy was a loving daughter and friend,

and touched the lives of all who knew her.

Today, the coroner reached a verdict of death

by misadventure, and it's clear to all of us who knew her,

that those who knowingly supplied our young,

beautiful, 16‐year‐old daughter with illegal drugs

and alcohol should take responsibility for her death.

‐ Because Amy did not take drugs,

so somebody out there knows something,

somebody out there knows what happened to her,

and she couldn't call anyone for help,

because she didn't even have a phone.

‐ You were calling Gareth every hour

trying to get laid.

‐ I wasn't.

I didn't call anyone that night.

(indistinct chatter) (tense music)

(phone ringing) (tense music)

(cell phone buzzing)

Hello, Samantha Thompson speaking.

Owen did what?

(indistinct chatter)

‐ And yeah, there's a door coming up.

(tense music)

‐ What the hell?

(chatter stops abruptly)

It's,

it's Gemma's birthday.

(tense music)

‐ [Gemma] I still can't believe he did that.

‐ When I started working, it wasn't like it is now.

If, well if someone who was your boss wants you to,

well, you know, do things,

you didn't have a choice.

You either had to take it on the chin or get fired.

I just don't want you to have to go through

the same shit that I did.

‐ I can handle myself.

My generation's not like yours.

‐ Can't wait for you to have kids.

‐ I'm gonna have a dog, not kids.

The world's populated.

‐ Well, I hope your hypothetical dog shits on your dreams.

Wait here.

(schoolyard chatter)

Thank you, and again, I'm really sorry.

Porn, are you joking?

Go on.

(birds tweeting)

‐ Mommy's gonna read you a bedtime story tonight, all right?

Daddy's got to go see Uncle Owen.

‐ Can't you go after bedtime?

‐ I'll only be an hour quick pay him.

Have you got any cash?

‐ Yeah, in me bag.

‐ [Vanessa] Bye‐bye.

‐ Bye‐bye.

One second, I'll be back in a sec.

‐ What's this?

I was thinking about making a will.

‐ With a divorce lawyer?

‐ Look, I know about you and Sam.

‐ (laughing) Where is this coming from?

‐ Please don't lie to me,

for Vanessa's sake.

‐ Vanessa, for Christ's sake, Carys!

Sam's me work colleague, she's practically me sister!

‐ Gareth, please, we've tried everything.

This marriage is not working.

‐ Oh, so this is about me?

It's not about me imaginary other woman?

‐ Stop!

Maybe we need a few days apart to think.

‐ Well, where will you go?

‐ I'm staying here.

Where will you go?

(dramatic music)

(Gareth sighs)

‐ Bye, Gina.

Daddy's gonna go away for a few days, all right?

All right, darling?

‐ Right, what were we reading?

(birds tweeting)

‐ Seriously, Adam, this is probably the funniest shit

you've ever pulled.

‐ Get upstairs, you're not helping.

Listen Adam,

that kind of stuff you were looking at?

I don't want you to think

that's how adults treat each other.

There's a difference in what goes on between people

who love each other, and what happens online,

and I don't want you to think of women in that way

or men, to be honest.

I have restrictions on every single screen in this house.

Did someone else show it to you?

Did you use someone else's computer?

‐ Can I go now?

‐ Mm‐hmm.

(cars whooshing)

‐ [Maya] You want me to come with you?

‐ No.

‐ Oh, hang on, before I forget.

Got you a present

The Bhagavad Gita.

‐ Is this that weird book the bald blokes

in orange give out?

‐ No, you,

you said that you liked the passage from the yoga class.

It's from this book, it's one of my faves.

‐ Cheers.

‐ [Maya] Bye.

(car whooshing)

(indistinct chatting)

‐ Tess, hi, I'm Lucy.

Don't worry, it's not as bad as it looks.

Just avoid the creepy old blokes who want to study

the 12 steps alone with you.

Tea?

(indistinct chatter continues)

(dramatic music)

(cell phone buzzing) (upbeat music)

(birds tweeting)

(knocking on door)

‐ Can I stop here for a few nights?

‐ No, fuck off and go to your mum's.

‐ I can't right now.

Please, I just need a few days away from me house.

Carys is mad at me.

‐ [Gemma] Mom, I need to talk to you.

‐ I'm downstairs.

What is it, Gem?

‐ I forgot.

‐ All right

‐ So you're close with your bosses?

I've known them for 20 years.

‐ So close that Gemma babysits for them,

Adam has sleepovers there,

and Gareth actually moved in with you?

Anything romantic going on there?

Something you're trying to keep quiet?

How do you get on with his wife?

Was it worth it?

‐ Was what worth it?

‐ Whatever you did to get into their good books,

was it worth it?

(tense music)

‐ My life had become an endless round

of drinking and snorting coke,

taking downers to sleep, taking uppers to wake up.

‐ Boo fucking hoo.

‐ I thought alcoholics drink all day,

so if I only drank tonight, didn't have a problem.

‐ What the fuck is this shit?

‐ Shh.

‐ Every alcoholic reaches rock bottom at some point.

Like a lot of you, I didn't,

I didn't think my life was worth living,

when I failed at suicide.

I mean, what kind of idiot can't even take his own life?

Anyway,

I'd rather end on a positive note by telling you all

about the good things in my life have come about

because of this group.

‐ Tell 'em about how you got fired for sexual harassment.

I'd like to hear that story.

‐ Tess, come with me, come on.

‐ Tell about how you lied at the inquest,

and threw me under the bus.

Why don't yo tell 'em why you stopped drinking?

(door slams open)

Get hell away from me!

‐ Tess, it's okay, no one's judging!

Did you have a bit to drink before you came out tonight?

‐ I'll handle this, thanks, Luce.

‐ Can we go somewhere private?

There's a coffee shop‐

‐ Fuck off.

You had 10 years to talk to me, and you didn't.

You used me, and then acted like I didn't exist.

‐ I know.

I know, don't have any excuse.

I talked myself into believing

that you're the type of woman that didn't take any shit,

and then when Amy died‐

‐ Don't.

‐ When Amy died,

I couldn't lie to myself anymore.

I was ashamed and disgusted.

I couldn't even look you in the eye.

I should have been honest with you.

‐ Fuck you.

‐ Tess.

‐ You know, I don't have to go tomorrow.

I saved up all my holiday.

‐ No, you need to get back to work.

The NHS will be in bits without you.

I'm gonna go for a shower.

‐ Oh, let me make you a cup of tea.

(doorbell rings)

Oh, a visitor.

Who could that be?

‐ What have you done?

‐ I'll just get the door.

‐ Mum, what have you done?

‐ Talk to him, Diku.

Five minutes, that's all he wants.

‐ You gave him my address?

(speaking foreign language)

(indistinct chatter)

‐ Maya, look who's here?

What a surprise, I'll just put the kettle on.

‐ Hi. ‐ Hello, Maya.

(electrical shock sizzles) (gasping)

‐ Oh no, did you, did you use that socket?

‐ Yes.

‐ They told me it's broken.

It hardly, it trips the circuit.

‐ That's okay, where's the fuse box?

‐ I don't know, that's why I don't use that socket.

‐ Okay, okay, Maya, it's all right.

Take a deep breath.

Don't stress, I'll find it.

Come with me.

‐ No.

‐ Maya, go with him, otherwise you won't know what to do

next time it happens.

‐ So you flip this switch, and that restores the circuit.

‐ Thanks.

‐ Yeah.

So is she driving you nuts?

‐ Yep.

‐ Hey, you wanna, wanna to grab a drink?

‐ No, I don't think‐

‐ Maya, have you got any normal biscuits,

instead of all this‐

‐ [Mother] Mrs. J, I gonna was take Maya off your hands

for an hour or so, if that's okay.

‐ Oh, I'm sure she would love that.

She doesn't have much social life over here.

She needs to get out more.

‐ No, actually I just said I have some work to do, so‐

‐ Off you go, Diku.

The fresh air will do you good.

‐ Mom.

‐ Come on, I won't bite.

‐ Okay.

I haven't even got my cover on!

Gareth!

‐ [Gareth] Turn around, she won't notice it.

I'll watch it later so I can see

what you look like when you cum.

(Carys sighing)

(distant siren wails)

‐ I've been seeing someone.

‐ Oh.

‐ Yeah,

lovely girl,

doctor.

I've learned a lot about myself,

and I know I haven't been the perfect husband.

I just,

I just wish I'd realised it a bit sooner.

‐ How's your mum?

‐ Ah, in hospice.

You should call her.

‐ I'm sorry, I know you were close.

‐ Just makes you realise how little time we have,

doesn't it?

We spent most of it arguing, and bickering,

and wasting it, Maya.

(weeping) Come back.

‐ I can't.

‐ Please, Maya, please.

‐ I can't, we need to sell the house.

My solicitor has all the papers ready.

You just need to sign them.

‐ Always have to get the last slap, don't you?

Maya, Maya, please, listen, wait, I'm just hurt, okay?

I'm just hurt.

I'm not ready to let this go.

Can we please just talk about it?

For one night?

I haven't seen you for weeks.

I didn't know where you were, if you were okay.

Can you blame me for being stressed?

You walked out on me, Maya.

My mum is dying of cancer.

It's a lot to handle.

‐ Sorry.

(tense music)

‐ Are you?

Yeah?

‐ Yeah.

‐ Who's gonna put up with you, hey, Maya, huh?

And your cleaning obsession?

Your spazz‐outs, your shitty job history?

That weird little ball sack wandering around?

They're lining up for you, are they, Maya, huh?

(jacket slapping)

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned your dead cat.

That was a low blow,

especially when you knew she wasn't meant to be outside.

Such a tragedy.

(screaming loudly)

‐ Fuck you.

(tense music)

Train station please.

‐ Give me a kiss, Diku.

‐ Oh, I've gotta get to work.

(kissing)

(car engine starts)

‐ [Mother] I'll call you tonight.

(car engine revs)

‐ [Desk Attendant] There you go.

‐ Are you signing up for the charity fun run?

All the proceeds do go to the local food bank.

‐ No.

Next question.

‐ Shouldn't you be in that meeting?

‐ What meeting?

‐ About the investor timetable thingy?

‐ There's no meeting.

‐ Oh, there is definitely a meeting, everyone's there.

‐ Fuck.

‐ I'm sure it's a mistake.

Don't worry about it, they probably don't need you.

‐ Why wouldn't they need me in an important meeting?

‐ I will find out.

Why don't you take a bit of you time, you know?

Just relax and de‐stress?

‐ You're pissing me off now.

‐ So I think you'll agree that we're coming to the end

of an extremely successful‐

Not now, Sam.

We're in the middle of something.

As I was saying, we're coming the end

of an extremely successful transaction period,

and all we need to do now is to‐

‐ It just feels you're a bit distracted right now.

Not giving it a hundred percent.

‐ I am putting in 12‐hour days.

‐ Well, he's a perfectionist.

I wouldn't worry about it.

‐ Well, of course I'm worried.

‐ Forget I said anything.

Hey, hey, hey, listen, you are the COO, Sam.

He's not gonna take that away from you,

but you've got to stop pissing him off.

You'd better stay on my good side too.

(schoolyard chatter)

‐ And the educational psychologist says

that Harriet's not speaking,

yet she's actually highly intelligent.

She needs more stimulation.

So I said to Dom, let's go to a private school.

Look, there she is, Carys, Carys!

Hi.

‐ Hi, Liz, Vanessa.

Sorry, I've got to rush off.

‐ Oh, where've you been?

We want to know the gossip.

‐ Thought I was the gossip.

‐ I had no idea he was moving in with Sam.

It's as much of a shock to me as it is to you.

‐ Oh my God, Sam!

Gemma's still on to babysit tonight?

‐ Adam, car, now.

‐ Sam, can we talk?

‐ I told him to get his ass home.

I can't do anything more, I'm sorry.

‐ Sam?

‐ Get in the car.

‐ Are you having an affair?

‐ What?

No, God, no.

‐ Has his penis been in your vagina?

‐ Jesus!

‐ Answer me.

‐ Yes.

‐ Before we were married, during, when?

‐ Sort of on and off.

Look, Carys, can we talk about this‐

‐ Is Gemma his daughter?

‐ No, no, definitely not.

‐ Why didn't you marry him?

‐ Because he's not the sort of person

I'd want to have a family with.

‐ What's this?

Turns out I wasn't the only one he cheated on.

‐ Carys?

‐ I'm sorry.

‐ Fuck off, Sam.

(sad music)

(suspenseful music)

(gasps)

(panting)

‐ Maya?

‐ Danny, come on, it's time for tea.

(voices moaning in pleasure)

(doorknob rattling)

Danny, let me in.

What are you doing in your parents' bedroom?

Isn't that your mom's laptop?

Why aren't you using yours?

‐ It broke.

‐ Really?

‐ Yeah, but look at this.

‐ Hello, and welcome to episode 17, and today,

we're gonna be building a marine mammal rescue centre.

(voices moaning in pleasure)

(tense music)

‐ Hey, no need to turn the TV off, darling.

‐ I need to talk to you about something.

‐ Oh, sounds very serious, why?

‐ Danny's been watching porn.

He's the one who's been spreading it around school,

giving it to lads and stuff.

‐ And where would he access this material?

Of course you want to defend your brother, Gemma.

That's only natural, but

we all know what goes on in your house.

‐ What do you mean in my house?

‐ Vanessa, we can talk to Danny tomorrow.

Thanks, Gem, I'm sorry you had to deal with that.

Can I give you a lift home?

‐ He found the porn on your computer.

‐ Sounds exactly like her mother.

‐ Like my mum?

Is that supposed to be some kind of slur?

Because my mum works her ass off as a single parent,

doing everything for that company without any help

or thanks, and from what I can see,

all you do all day is sit home doing saddle.

‐ (scoffs) Can I at least get you an Uber?

‐ No, thank you, but you can stop texting me,

because I'm 17, and that's really messed up.

‐ She's got a point about the leching.

Getting very obvious in your old age.

(Owen sighs)

‐ No sign of forced entry.

He obviously knows where you keep your spares,

so I'd suggest changing your locks,

and installing some security cameras and a panic alarm.

You should consider filing a restraining order against him.

It'll give us more powers should he try this again.

Think you should take this.

‐ What's this?

‐ TecSOS phone, press the button,

you get through to the police immediately.

I want you to come down to the police station tomorrow

and make a statement, all right?

(loud club music playing) (indistinct chatter)

(tense music)

(Tess panting)

(eerie music)

(glass breaking)

‐ [Bystander] Whoa, you all right?

(distant siren wailing)

(tense music)

(wine pouring)

(tense music continues)

‐ Yeah. (Gareth laughing)

Look, give us a smile and be nice.

(both laughing)

What are you up to?

Gareth, are you taking my shirt off?

‐ [Gareth] No, leave it.

I'll watch it later so I can see

what you look like when you cum.

(tense music)

(door opening)

(laptop shutting)

(kissing sound)

‐ What time is it?

‐ I know about you and Amy.

She was 16!

‐ Keep your voice down.

‐ She came back to see you that night, didn't she?

‐ What night?

‐ (scoffs) The night she died.

‐ Why would you think that?

‐ I worked it out.

I have been so stupid.

‐ I don't understand.

‐ My phone.

She called you on my phone just before she disappeared.

Don't bullshit me,

or I will call the police right now.

‐ I mean, yeah.

Okay, we might have had a little fling,

but it wasn't like a big deal.

‐ You were the last person to see her alive,

and you've lied about it for 10 years?

I think it's an enormous fucking deal!

‐ How do you know I was the last person to see her alive?

None of us know what happened.

‐ Because everyone is lying!

‐ I broke things off with her.

She didn't take it well, all right?

She kept calling and texting.

I ignored her, and she called me from your phone.

(suspenseful music)

(phone ringing)

I didn't know it was her, so I picked up.

She was wasted, Sam, wasted.

She just showed up.

I couldn't get rid of her.

(glass breaking)

Starts throwing her cell phone,

and I told her again it was over,

but she ran off.

(sad music)

I let her go alone in that state, and if I hadn't‐

‐ Jesus Christ, Gareth,

why didn't you tell me?

‐ Well, what good would it have done?

‐ Oh my God.

I have been so stupid.

‐ I'm a scumbag.

I'm a piece of shit, okay?

I couldn't even go to her funeral.

You can't call the police, Sam.

They'll reopen the case, and no one will believe me.

Please, Sam, I swear that's all there was,

just a stupid fling, nothing more.

Is it worth risking everything?

‐ I need to think.

‐ (weeping) I feel so guilty, so guilty, Sam.

I've been carrying this around with me

for 10 fucking years.

It's messed my head up.

(tense music)

‐ It's messed us all up.

(tense music)

(pill bottle rattling)

(knocking on door)

‐ Come in.

Our meeting was two hours ago.

‐ Yeah, I got held up.

‐ You were late again?

‐ No, it just slipped my mind.

I was at work on time.

‐ You stink.

‐ Bit harsh.

‐ I can smell it from here, Tess.

What happened?

You were doing so well.

You went to the AA meeting, I know that.

Triggers can just sneak up on you.

‐ You've got that worked out really great, cheers.

‐ Okay.

Come with me.

(pill bottle rattling)

‐ Tox came back,

alcohol, and alprazolam,

not in the toxic range, but the combination would have made

someone extremely uncoordinated, not really with it.

‐ Trollied?

‐ Yeah, that's one way of putting it.

(knocking on door)

‐ Hup, you'll have to wait.

There's a critical point with your chicken and mushroom,

where the noodle reaches optimum tender,

and you have a window of two seconds

to get your soy sauce in.

(timer beeping)

‐ Good afternoon, Brian.

‐ What do you want now?

‐ Could you tell me what time Tess swiped in this morning?

Oh, look there you are, Tess, 11:49 AM.

‐ I came in early with a bunch of different people

just before 9:00 AM.

The 11:00 AM entry‐

‐ Let's round it up to 12.

‐ That was actually my second entry.

I'd gone to get something out from my car.

‐ Okay, Brian, could you access to CCTV from this morning,

around 9:00 AM?

‐ She's talking through her ass.

‐ Cheers, Brian.

‐ Get upstairs, I'll be in touch shortly.

Brian, could you filter out Tess' entry records

for the past month, and email them to me please?

‐ Can I not finish my lunch first?

‐ Move over.

‐ Well, look,

nobody bothers me for months on end,

and this week is print this out, check that out.

It's a bloody miracle we still have them CD ROMs

I was gonna throw it away until Sam came along.

‐ What CD ROMs?

‐ Well, does it matter?

‐ What exactly did Sam request?

‐ Well, comings and goings, the same as you,

from 10 years ago.

‐ Show me.

‐ I wasn't concentrating.

‐ She just swept in and took some things.

‐ Brian‐

‐ No, no, all right, Tess Jones, wasn't it?

Look, I can't do the goings unless you want me

to troll through weeks of CCTV,

but the comings, that's the easy one.

(tense music)

‐ Does Sam know you're in her office?

‐ She will do.

(tense music)

(music builds)

(cell phone buzzing)

‐ What now?

What?

Right, on my way.

What the hell were you doing in my office?

‐ Took this.

Amy's was here the night she died,

so not only is this evidence for a corporate coverup,

you are the one spearheading it.

‐ There's a simple explanation, I promise.

‐ Right.

‐ So after you spoke to me, I went to check the records.

‐ And found out that Amy returned to the office

the night she died?

‐ Yes.

‐ Checking does it involve removing evidence?

You should have told me.

‐ This isn't an HR matter, Maya.

Look, you've got enough on your plate right now.

You're walking around like a zombie since Audrey.

‐ This isn't for you to decide.

It is a police matter!

‐ There is nothing to report.

She had a crush on Gareth.

She came back here to try and see him,

and when he rejected her,

she ran off into the night.

‐ And died.

‐ She was upset, high, and drunk.

He tried to get her home, but she ran off alone.

It is a tragedy,

but that's what happens when you're a young girl,

and you don't look after yourself.

(Maya scoffs)

‐ Don't look after yourself?

I'm sorry, what?

‐ I didn't mean it like that.

‐ Oh, you covering for him.

I have to call this in, Sam, I have to.

‐ Talk to Gareth and Owen.

‐ [Maya] Sam‐

‐ This has waited 10 years.

It can wait another couple more hours.

We have to involve senior management.

‐ Fine,

but I expect everyone in my office at six.

‐ Thank you.

(phone ringing in distance)

‐ Tess?

You all right?

‐ Bit late for that.

(sad music)

(eerie sting)

(sad music continues)

‐ Tess?

Tess?

Tess?

‐ Mm?

‐ You can't be here in this state.

You're gonna get fired.

‐ Has anyone ever told you you're really fit?

Jesus, what have you taken?

‐ I've not taken anything.

‐ Go on, up.

We need to get you home before someone catches you.

I'll get you an Uber.

‐ I don't wanna go.

‐ Stand up, keep your head down.

If anyone asks, you've got the shits.

‐ Could we just go to the pub?

‐ No, we can't go to the bloody pub.

You need to go to bed.

‐ Can I just have a little moment?

‐ Hurry up.

My empathy window is closing rapidly.

‐ Fuck off, Duncan, you cock.

‐ Ding, ding, time's up.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

‐ This is a mess.

‐ It's not that bad.

Gareth did nothing wrong.

Maya's on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

The police will probably take the entry records,

and not even bother looking at them.

You can't just magically reopen a case overnight.

‐ This is a mess.

Gareth?

‐ It's not Sam's fault.

‐ I don't care whose fault it is.

We need to have our solicitor draw up

a nondisclosure agreement, and get Maya to sign it tonight.

We are on the verge of taking this company public.

After we do that, she can say or do whatever she wants,

but now, no.

Absolutely not.

‐ What does Anita think?

I don't want Mum involved in this, stays between us.

Get the NDA, throw some money at her.

Include some flowery, feminist bullocks in the language,

and we will shut this down by tomorrow morning.

‐ I know Maya.

She won't go for that.

‐ She has to.

I want it by tonight, or you're out of a job.

‐ Let's go over this morning again.

Start with when you woke up, so what was

the very first thing you did after getting out bed?

‐ I had a piss.

We've been over this a million times.

‐ Okay, why didn't you take Gemma with you today?

‐ I already told you, she had a bit of a temperature.

She didn't wanna go in, and it was pyjama Friday.

‐ Somebody died this morning.

‐ I wanna go home.

‐ And you found their body.

‐ You told me I could go home any time wanted to.

I'm doing you a favour, and I am exhausted.

I've told you what I know.

I can't do this anymore, I'm done.

‐ One last time, please.

‐ I can't!

‐ Interview pause at 21:00.

Start retracing your steps in your head.

I want you to remember everything from this morning.

‐ [Sam] It's gone wrong, really wrong.

I need help.

‐ Carys may have found some stuff.

‐ What kind of stuff?

‐ Where is the drive you took from my safe?

‐ I gave it to Sam.

‐ You've been very loyal to her, Sam.

‐ You all are hypocrites.

You've got blood on your hands, the lot of you.

‐ And we don't forget loyalty in this family.

‐ Did you try it on?

‐ I don't want to go into it.

‐ Don't underestimate me, Sam.

You're playing a very dangerous game right now.

‐ Everyone has a price.

‐ Maya didn't.

‐ I'm going to the police.

Get out of my office.

‐ [Owen] She didn't show up to the CSU to give a statement.

‐ I think being dead is a pretty good excuse

not to give a statement.
