We had fun, didn't we?

I'm sorry, Pete.

You don't mind, do you?

Me going there?

I don't own Cyprus, do I?

That man over there, could you tell me who he is?

He owns this hotel.

Niko Angeli.

You carry this joy with you.

I wish you could give it to yourself.

This is the most beautiful house I've ever seen.

Stay here, in this house. With me.

The owner of the villa wants to complete the sale

by the end of next week.

The bank will even lend it to me, no problem.

I have some money.

Welcome to Lakes Bank.

What are you doing in my house?

This is our house. What are you doing here?

Where's Niko?

I told you, I don't know any Niko.

The account has been emptied and closed.

I'm sorry, I can't help you any further.

No, it's not for me!

No! I can't...

I'm so sorry.

This way.

- Go through. - Mum! Oh my god.

Thank god you're alright.

I mean, you are, you are alright, right?

You are okay?

Yeah, Yeah, I think so. What are you doing here?

They called me.

Mum, they said that you'd been arrested.

They said that you threatened to rob a bank or something -

No, I didn't threaten to rob a bank.

Was it him?

You know, did he...

did he make you do it?

Did he... did he attack you, or anything,

you know is, is that what happened?

No. No.

Okay.

Susie, erm...

I've got something to tell you.

Come.

She's my mum...

She can stay.

And you can go.

Please.

So, you were arrested for affray?

Affray?

What Mum?

Don't be daft.

You threatened a bank clerk.

But she didn't.

Did you, Mum?

Mum?

I didn't threaten her.

I just had a... a bit of a funny turn.

Oh, no.

Not like that, Susie.

Not like what?

I don't blame them for calling you.

I was very upset.

But it wasn't my fault.

It was his.

Whose?

Niko.

I am the victim... of a con.

A fraud.

What?

What are you talking about?

He told me he owned loads of hotels and a boat.

And he told me that...

That he loved me.

Hmm.

But there was a price, right?

What? Mum?

What, what have you done?

I thought it was only gonna be for a couple of days,

he said it was a banking error.

How much?

Two hundred and twenty five thousand Euros.

A hundred and ninety thousand pounds.

The divorce money?

But the, the salon - we can't...

We can't buy the salon?

I'm gonna get that money back.

You said that money was for our future, Mum.

So why would you just give that away?

I didn't give it away. I was conned!

That's why I was so upset in the bank.

And I'm sorry for that. That's not like me at all.

But anyone would go off the red,

if that happened to them, wouldn't they?

I'm not the criminal here.

I'm the victim.

Please, you've got to find him.

I've got to get that money back.

Got it.

Anything else?

I'm not sure what you can do, but the woman is crazy.

Something needs be done,

maybe she drinks all day, I don't know.

Okay, I get it, thank you very much.

Well, what did she say about Niko?

She's never heard of him,

and she has no idea what you're talking about.

Well, she's lying!

She says you have quite the taste for, pornstar martinis?

Oh my God...

That is not true, she's covering for him.

Look, I will drop the affray charges,

if you promise to go home immediately

and be no more trouble.

I can't do that!

He's got my money,

and whatever else she said, that bit is true.

That money was all I had.

I can't just walk away!

You've had a holiday romance with a bad man.

It happens!

But you said yourself, you handed over the money willingly.

Even if I found this Niko,'

it'll be impossible to actually prove any crime has taken place,

let alone charge him.

So, he's just going to get away with it?

Mum, come on.

I think you should listen to your daughter.

Somebody round here will know who he really is,

we'll get a room, and we'll ask around.

It is gone, isn't it?

I mean I'll have to tell Sonny.

And what do I say?

We're supposed to complete in a week.

I mean I'm gonna have to pull out.

Mum, what am I gonna do?

- Completion's Friday, right? - Yeah.

- Right, we've still got time. - Can I help you?

Yes.

Can we get a room, please?

One of your cheapest.

We are fully booked.

Really? What? None at all?

Not for you.

- Try next door. - What?

You can't do that.

Mum, let's just... let's just go.

They can't do that!

Come on.

Come on, we can check in next door.

Mum, can you just stop.

You know, when you kicked Dad out, I tried...

I tried to understand, I really did.

I knew that you struggled with your wobbles -

There was a bit more to it than that, love.

But that was between the two of you.

That was none of my business.

And you know, you know that I felt for Dad,

when you got most of the house equity.

It would have been swallowed up by his debts!

But I thought, he's resilient, right.

He'll make it back.

But now you've gone and done this.

I was conned!

By a handsome millionaire, who owns a yacht and hotels.

But who's also happens to be a little bit short on cash.

I mean come on, Mum.

How could you fall for that?

Hi, Sonny.

Oh, my baby is he alright?

No. No. No, I'm gonna...

I'm gonna come home, no, I want to, Sonny.

I'll call you on the way to the airport.

Alright, okay. Bye.

There's chicken pox at the nursery

and Milo's come out in spots.

And he only wants me when he's ill, so...

Well, you need to get back then, don't you?

On the next flight.

You're coming with me though, right?

No.

I'm staying.

I'm gonna get you your money by Friday.

Mum, just come home.

I've made a mistake, Susie.

You've got to give me the chance to fix it.

Okay.

You take care of yourself, then yeah?

I love you.

I love you.

Go on.

Go on. Go on.

It's two-twenty-two.

So the number's two-twenty-two?

Theo...

I'm sorry.

I'm not leaving until you tell me the truth.

Did he buy that, Niko?

Or whatever his name is.

Admit it!

You did tell me that he owned the hotel.

And then you lied to me.

You helped ruin my life for the sake of a computer game!

You know, I made your drinks with local liquor,

and I think they rotted your brain.

I'll tell your employers.

They won't want a con artist working there.

Everyone thinks you're a crazy, drunk Englishwoman.

Because you made me look like one!

Well, maybe now...

Maybe I really am crazy.

No!

Maybe, crazy enough to drop this right over the side now.

Unless you tell me who Niko really is

and where I can find him.

You won't do it.

I will!

- Go on then. - I will!

She won't do it, Theo,

because she's a nice person.

No, no, I'm not a nice person!

Please!

See, you are a nice person.

Is that why you chose me?

Because I'm nice.

And that makes me weak.

So people like you can just... shit all over me.

I didn't choose you, I'm not one of those fuckers.

That only exist in your imagination.

If you're not one of them, please help me.

Your money is gone, Emma.

And I am sorry.

But you should go home.

That money was for my daughter.

I was buying her and her little boy a future.

And those bastards...

...took it from me.

Please, just tell me how to find them.

I never saw that Niko' guy before he came to the hotel.

But the English one, he drinks in the Carob Tree in town.

He's there most days.

Thank you.

You know, people like you can't beat people like them.

We'll see.

Good morning, Christina Kiriakou speaking.

Constable Kyriacou?

This is Emma Walters.

Ah.

I knew giving you my number was a terrible idea.

I've found one of them.

Not Niko, the other one. George.

I thought we agreed you were going home.

He's the one who pretended to be an estate agent.

He's in on it.

He's here now.

Come and arrest him!

I can't just arrest people

on the say so, of every wronged woman, you know.

Do you know how many forms I'd have to fill out for that?

But he's got my money!

Which you said yourself,

you handed over of your own free will.

Do you really think that's true?

Do you think I deserve this?

Doesn't matter what I think, Emma.

You know, if it was up to me, sure,

I'd be happy to arrest these guys

and put their balls into a vice

until they admit what they've done.

Good! Well, let's do that then.

Unfortunately, there are some laws against that sort of thing.

So, I need evidence that I can show to my superiors that will

convince them there is a reasonable chance

of a charge and a conviction.

So, what would it take to convince your superiors?

Evidence of coercion.

Something that shows you didn't hand over the money willingly.

Okay, then.

What do you mean, okay then?

Emma, what are you going to do?

Shit.

Hello Emma.

This is exciting, isn't it?

You've tracked me down, broken in.

The window was open.

And therefore, of course, you had to climb through it!

Erm, please, sit down.

Can I get you anything?

I've got one of those frothy coffee machines.

- No, thank you. - Right erm...

Well, I'm glad you're here, actually.

I wanted to apologise.

For all that business with Mister Angeli.

I presume that's what you're doing here?

Looking for him?

He took my money.

And you helped him rob me.

I am so sorry.

I wanted to warn you.

I almost did, but erm...

My life here isn't all sunshine and cocktails, you know?

I'm beginning to realise.

Niko works with some very bad people, Emma.

Links with the mafia.

Guests on the Island, like you and me, we do as we're told.

What like erm, stealing people's life savings?

I made some mistakes in the past.

Business dealings.

Sorry, that makes me sound like more of a big deal than I am.

I moved here, I thought I could do whatever I liked.

Typical English twat, right?

Anyway erm...

They own me now.

I get told to be at a certain place, at a certain time.

I smile, I say all the right things.

Yeah, I'm just a warm prop.

Pretty wealthy one though.

No, no, no.

My money's legit now.

But in their eyes, I still have debts.

Niko's business, well, that's just one of the repayments.

This is how I keep safe, Emma.

But I want you to keep safe too.

So please stop looking for Niko.

Trust me, you don't want to find him.

But what about my money?

I'm sorry.

But nobody ever gets their money back from Niko.

Oh, if we're quick,

you can still make the five twenty five BA to Heathrow.

It's much more civilized than those cheapo jobs.

I can give you a lift, if you like.

Erm, I've got a car, thank you.

Right, well then, I'll jump in with you.

Now there's a shortcut through the hills.

It'll get you out of here much more quickly.

I'll get a taxi back.

You can hand the keys in here.

Thanks.

Maybe stick to Bognor next time, yeah, there's a good girl.

More of a Blackpool girl myself.

- Emma. - Hi, Pete.

Susie called me. She wanted me to ring...

...to convince you to come back.

Well, I'm not your problem anymore.

So it's none of your business.

You made it my business when you lost all of our money.

Er, that was my money.

I think the judge was very clear about that.

And I was happy for you to get most of the equity,

I knew you'd look after Susie but...

- but this - - Look, Pete.

I'm already having a pretty shit day.

You shouldn't be out there on your own.

I'm not a child.

Maybe you need to go back on that medication, the tablets...

You know, like before.

I don't think antidepressants protect you

- against con artists, Pete! - Emma...

I'm wondering,

whether it was really you who said yes to that guy.

I'm pretty sure it was me, Pete.

I just mean,

maybe there's something a bit more going on.

In your head.

There is nothing wrong with my head.

But you can understand, can't you?

Why we're all worried.

Just come home.

Let Susie look after you.

Or me too, if you like.

Susie'll get over the money.

We just want you safe.

Back here with us.

I've got to go.

- Thank you. - Thank you very much.

Can I help you?

Okay.

Hi, erm single room please.

No idea how long for.

Okay.

Who are you?

Hi.

- Welcome, beautiful lady. - Oh. Thank you.

You want a room?

No, I'm looking for someone actually.

Erm, a friend of mine.

- Oh, Annika! - You know her?

Yes.

She was supposed to stay for one week, and then she met that guy.

- Niko? - Yeah.

That's him! Lovely man.

Yeah.

She was here for a whole month.

And then, she disappeared.

I think she moved in with him,

she didn't even take her luggage with her.

Did she leave a new address?

No she didn't.

She didn't give it to you?

I've been out of touch with her, for a while.

And her mobile phone doesn't work.

Phones hey...

You know, you lose one, you lose your whole life, don't you?

Oh yes.

Actually it was her daughter, Freja,

who was a little bit worried about her.

Have you still got her luggage?

Of course, yes.

Oh, could I take a look, just in case her address is in there?

Oh...

My wife wanted to throw it all away

but I said, No, what about if Miss Annika comes back?

Mister Nikola, there's a call for you!

Excuse me, please.

Any luck?

No.

But I'll remind her to collect all this stuff, when I find her.

She's very lucky that you've kept it safe for her.

You told me to call if anyone came asking for the Danish lady.

A woman.

Same age.

English.

We're even now, okay?

You'll leave us alone?

- Hello? - Hello, is that Freja Larsen?

Er, yes that's right.

I was after your mother, actually, Annika.

I'm afraid I can't help you.

We are no longer in touch.

Oh well, that's a shame.

It's just I've found her passport

and I'd like to get it back to her.

Are you in Cyprus?

Yes.

Is she still here?

I really don't know.

Where was her passport?

Erm... I... I...

I found it on the... on the beach.

Yeah. Erm...

When did you last hear from her?

A few months ago.

Please, if you find her, ask her to call me, will you?

Tell her she has a grandson.

Oh, a new baby.

You must really want your Mum.

Yeah, well, she ran off with some guy instead.

What kind of a mother does that?

I don't know.

Maybe she didn't know what she was doing.

Oh, I have to go.

What's your son called?

In case I find her.

It's Oscar.

Oscar.

I really have to go.

I'll find her, Freja.

Okay?

Hi, leave a message.

Susie, you're probably deleting all my messages

without even listening to them.

Anyway...

I think this is bigger than me, this thing.

And I'm not the only one to fall for it.

But I think I'm about to get some evidence

that the police cannot ignore.

And I can't say were gonna get our money back straight away,

but we will get it back.

I am sure of it.

And I hope you can forgive me.

I'll call you later.

I love you.

Annika?

You really are a stupid bitch, aren't you?

I told you to leave it.

You should have listened to me.

Now, turn around and walk.

- Please. - Keep walking.

Please.

- Not far now. - Please.

I've called the police.

They know where I am.

The police don't give a shiny shit about another idiot Brit,

trust me.

Look, we could go to them and talk to them.

Tell them about Niko

and what he does to women like me and Annika -

This isn't my fucking problem anymore.

There must be...

There must be a better way, for you, surely?

For... for both of us?

You made this happen, when you left the fucking airport.

I've got a family.

I've got a daughter and a... and a grandson.

Maybe you have?

If...

if you do this, then you'll go to prison, and...

and we'll both never see our families again.

I'm sure you and Annika will enjoy eternity together,

she was a gobby tart too.

Emma!

Emma, you're just making it harder for yourself!

There's no way out!

Emma!

Emma!

Stop! Please!

Stop!

Niko!

Come here.

Get in...

Be quiet or you're dead.

You've taken everything from me!

She knows about Annika.

That woman is going nowhere near a police station.

I've messed everything up.

Niko said that George had the police in his pocket.

You be very careful now Emma.

I've got to do this, Pete.

For Susie's sake.

We're flying home, now.

Emma!

Do you think there is something wrong with me?

You've got no idea what's really going on here, have you?

Please, I'll just go home.

Emma?

Yes madam?

I'm who you're looking for.
