What are you doing here?

I'm just putting my beard on.

Keith Sullivan and his son Bradley intend to resume their operations for

Gretel Club as soon as they've been released from prison.

Garth's got three weeks to become their best friend.

Why didn't you warn me Paul was a total plastic?

Not only does he slash all over me from a great height, but I'm supposed to say

thanks for the shower.

You're always trying to make a getaway. Can't you just delegate?

It can be hard to trust other people.

This is your pet.

This is your neighbor's. Is that the doctor's wife? Yep.

Karen Kingswood.

Are you and Dad okay?

Oh, we're fine.

I just wanted to say it's okay.

Leaving prison.

Maybe we can go out training together.

But why does he have to go?

Why can't he come along on the chicken? Because we don't know him. We can't

trust him.

I'll look after you, Brad.

There's the peas to the shed.

Make sure he isn't contagious. If he is, you need to isolate him. What are you

doing here?

I wasn't here. I'm not here.

It never happened. Is that what you want?

What are you doing here?

I just want to be part of it.

You're alright.

That made you jump. I'd better change my pants again.

A little breast or a leg, ma 'am, Garth?

Breast, please.

With a garnish of pellets.

Oh, well, those should put lead in me pencil.

I'd like to say a few words.

It's only in... in a crisis.

in moments of extreme personal danger... that you get to know the truth about

someone's character.

And when you find someone... who understands

you... who shares your interests...

So I'd like to propose a toast.

To trust.

To trust.

To trust.

So what was all the panic about?

Well, there were firearms kicking about.

I'd lost track of Garth. I couldn't house him anywhere.

Many communications were... You're all right. It was my fault.

I'm sorry.

It won't happen again.

Well, now we know firearms were involved, we'd like to get Garth pulled

I'll see if I can get approval from the chief.

And he'll have to freshen up his training.

OK, post -mortem's over. We've made a major breakthrough. We now know that

Kingswood is part of the conspiracy.

What should I do?

We recorded this conversation from Keith Sullivan's mobile.

We've run it through the voice recognition software. There's no doubt

Kingswood. We knew they needed a contact at the gravel club.

He could be the webmaster.

He's not stupid. He's not going to make it easy for us.

He's got to have some way of maintaining the site.

There's got to be a computer or laptop somewhere.

I'll get a warrant for a covert entry. We'll get some kids into the doctor's

house and set up a listening post.

I'll need a file on the wife.

Liam, can I have a word?

You're going to use Karen Kingswood as your way

into the doctor?

Well, she's the obvious soft target.

Are we talking Romeo trap here?

What if she's part of it too? Get too close, she could alert you. Just let me

feel my way.

Any hint of this comes out in advance, disclosure. The judge would throw us out

of court, I know that.

Well, you can install all the kit and technical you like.

You can hire two surveillance teams at three grand a day, but in the end, there

are things a laptop isn't going to tell you.

You're just going to have to trust me on this.

Have you bought a dog lead for him? You haven't got a dog?

Maybe we'll have to get one.

Nice little puppy.

Something bothering you, Carl?

Yeah.

It's the shed.

It's your weak point.

There's no security, bags of evidence.

You worry too much.

You want to buy yourself some new padlocks anyway.

You don't want anyone just bimbling in there before the bank holiday.

I'm also thinking of getting some iron.

Iron? A gun, when I go down to London.

Don't you think you're being a bit paranoid?

Dad!

I don't believe it!

Now who's being paranoid?

Why did they do this to us?

What have we done to them?

Nothing.

Entry team is outside the Kingswood house.

Shall I give them green for go?

Yeah, OK. Send them in.

in place.

Covert entry team leaving the stage.

Stand down.

The chances she's in on him?

No, I don't think she has a clue.

Are you planning a covert entry of your own?

I don't know how you do it. I really don't.

I can keep track of all the lines of that letter. Maybe that's why you gave

being a Eusebio.

You ever tell Pamela what you get up to?

No, I can't.

You know that.

Who, Tamela?

Oh, Carol, the doctor's wife.

I don't get it. I mean, she's a good -looking woman. Why'd she stay in that

marriage?

I suppose it's like me and the ex.

People stay together because they're afraid of being alone.

It's not a strong enough basis, though, is it?

You've lost me, mate.

Fear. Fear of the unknown.

relationship together with her.

What do you think?

Bit of a bloody advert, isn't it?

That's the point, Garth.

No, watch out.

Paint's still wet.

What do you do with the chicken once you've finished with it?

First rule of forensics.

Destroy all the evidence.

All we need is that digital camera, and we are ready to go.

Stand by!

Not bad.

Not bad at all.

Excellent shooting on the first two targets, Garth.

Double taps.

Both headshots.

But what happened here?

I mean, exactly what threat did these two targets hold, eh?

I had an honest and firmly held belief that the baby was going to explode, sir.

It's got a lump in it.

Why do we need a tracking device?

So we can find out where this chicken shed is.

Yeah.

You got any more information on where it is?

Near some masts, he said.

Well, the camera should take us there.

Here you go.

You OK?

Fine.

Is there something you're not telling me?

Don't worry about it.

Something serious?

Bloody hilarious.

Oh, don't go on about it. I haven't got time.

It's just being with the Sullivans, you know. It's doing me head in. You know,

I've got to get a handle on them. I've got to know where they're coming from.

I've got to know what they're going to do next.

Garth, we went through this before. If you wrestle with a pig, you both get

dirty and the pig loves it.

Just need to find their weak spot.

Silver bullet.

Well, I could talk to some experts.

Get some advice.

Yeah, you do that.

Well, this is out of the blue.

Were you said to give you a call if anything cropped up?

What's the problem?

Obviously, we can't talk operational details.

So, this is about the job, then?

You ever work with sex offenders?

Pedophiles?

Well, I...

Mainly see the victims of abuse, but, yeah, I do see abusers.

Yeah, I've got an officer in deep with some paedophiles. I'm worried about him.

You have to understand that I don't do psychological profiling or anything like

that. No, I'm concerned about my man.

It's important to me.

OK, well, why don't you ask him to come in and see me?

Any chance you're going out to him?

I get these flashbacks all the time.

The other day I woke up, I'd wet the bleeding bed.

That's a normal reaction.

Then there are these PDs.

I don't get it.

Just, I don't get it.

Is it true that most of them have probably abused themselves?

That's just sick.

I mean, how can they dump that on other kids?

Can't you just give me a prescription? Something to get me through the next two

days. Can't you tell your team about it?

No. Why not?

I don't know.

I screwed up.

I went in on my own and I nearly croaked.

Change of subject.

OK. Do you mind if I ask you a question?

Fire away.

Promise me you'll say the first thing that comes into your mind. Give it a

The man?

Brilliant slip.

What? Fire away. Shot.

The man who threatened you with a gun.

After that moment when he didn't kill you, what did you feel?

A hot, wet, sticky feeling down the inside of my leg. No, no, no, no. I

At that moment, what did you feel about him?

No. Go on.

Not that.

What?

Love.

Because he gave me life.

It's OK.

I feel sick.

You know, you were wondering why abusers were nearly always abused themselves.

Well, maybe you understand why now.

See, after a trauma like this, you just can't get away from it. You keep

reliving the experience over and over again.

It's exactly the same for child abuse victims.

One way of dealing with the trauma is to sometimes go back to where it happened.

Only this time, as the abuser.

Charlie, Delta 5 -0. I've got the eyeball.

Target off.

And it's a left, left, left into the natural.

Skiving off work?

I don't know.

I was miles away.

Do you use skiving too?

Yeah, for a little bit.

So we're partners in crime?

Have you got kids?

Yeah, two boys.

Eight and eleven.

They've seen your new house yet?

Well, I'd love them to, but my ex took me to Australia.

I'm sorry.

The Lord's very one -sided.

You must miss him a lot.

He has a huge hole in my life.

We married young.

People change so much.

But Angela's their mother. I wouldn't want to change that.

What does your wife do in Australia?

I'm not sure I should tell you.

Why not?

She's a GP.

Yeah, well, doctors can be hard to live with.

Are you sure you didn't hit it over the fence? Of course I'm sure.

This is a false ball you've lost this week. Don't go on about it.

Mum!

How are you, darling?

How's life treating you?

Like a baby treats a nappy.

Have you got a moment?

Of course I have.

I wouldn't be calling you if I didn't. I just need to talk to someone that knows

Liam.

I'm impressed.

By what?

You lost me miles back.

You've run almost five miles.

You shouldn't have told me that.

Water. Thank you.

And how are you doing?

You haven't even broken into a sweat.

It's all psychological.

Thank you.

Does your husband mind you going out like this?

Why should he mind?

Why am I here? To make him jealous?

What's he got to be jealous of?

Great view from up here, isn't it?

Perfect.

It's just as I remember it as a kid.

Really?

You didn't tell me you were brought up around here.

There's a lot you don't know about me.

Don't move.

We used to come

up here as teenagers.

Taking girls out to the long grass.

That's fun.

Felt so free in those days.

Aren't you free now?

Sometimes. I spend all day just looking up at the blue sky.

Why did you move back?

I don't know.

Find out where I went wrong.

Went wrong with what?

With all the girls since my long grass days.

You know what you mean.

You marry someone in your early 20s, by your 30s you change so much.

You're not the same person.

No.

Nor is your partner.

What do you do?

Start again?

With the same person?

Or with somebody new?

I think I've got my breath back.

Faster going downhill?

Might be a bit of a jump.

Got you. Piss off, Bradley.

This is great.

If you do that again, you'll get hurt.

By the way, have I said piss off yet?

Come on.

Reggie, we stole it in the shed.

I'll stay here, keep an eye on the road.

Why don't you come with us?

What are you scared of, Garth? Give us a break.

You're either with us or you're not.

Yeah, but I'm not with you, am I?

What do you mean?

Just because you stick a feather up your arse, it doesn't make you a chicken.

When I run errands for you, I provide protection, I get you a camera.

You still won't let me in.

You know everything we do.

What more do you want? Your website.

Show me how you're going to make money out of this.

Is that Ned?

Hey, Ned, make a block.

God knows I was going to run in that.

See you at the finishing line.

See you at the pub.

Ryo?

It's Pam.

Any idea when Liam's coming back?

I really need to talk to him.

Pam, I'm sure you do, but now's not really the right time.

Just wait till the operation's over.

But if Liam can lie day in, day out as part of his work, what's to stop him

lying to me?

a little looking.

Bye. Bye. Bye.

You going already?

Yeah, I'm almost good.

I'm feeling it.

I scare you a little bit, don't I?

That's almost as if you know what I'm thinking.

Well, that's a good thing, then.

Intuition.

I remember Pamela and I lost that ability to read each other's minds.

I thought you said your first wife was called Angela.

Pamela was the woman I met just before we broke up.

She was the cause of your divorce?

Well, not really.

More like the catalyst.

Ian's so distant these days. Sometimes I wonder if he's having an affair.

Well, how would you feel if he was?

Angry.

Stupid.

Relieved.

Because then I would be free.

Only when we're both free.

There's a light hall in your garage.

Yeah, Ian often works there late.

On what?

Research into hyperactive children.

Can we meet again tomorrow?

Yeah. Yeah, that'd be nice.

Or was it fun?

What do you think?

Anything happen?

No.

Take it for yourself.

The tape's rewinding.

Checkmate.

Has Josie got a location on the chicken shed?

Yeah.

Yeah, we'll get it up.

That's not checkmate.

It's only check.

I think it's time I told Karen the truth about her husband.

I'll deliver the letter tomorrow.

Now that is checkmate.

OK, she's got the letter.

And she's off to the front aspect.

Are you following me?

Why are you avoiding me?

Why can't we talk about this? What's that to say?

Why do we have to stop seeing each other?

You read the letter.

Because of my husband. He didn't worry at all.

But you don't understand. It's for me to make my own decision about Ian. I'm

sorry, Karen. You can't be judge and jury. You don't know what goes on in my

marriage.

I didn't want to tell you, but there are things you don't know either.

That's what happens to kids who are abused.

I couldn't trust anyone. Went off the rails.

In the end, I was sent to a children's home.

Out the frying pan, into the fire.

I'm not good at stable relationships.

I knew I wouldn't be free until I came back.

To face my demons.

That's a terrible story, Liam.

It's not over yet.

Maybe you never found the right person to help you face the past.

There's more to it than that.

I'm still keeping contact with some mates from the children's home.

They're trying to track down some of our abuses.

There's a paedophile network called the Gretel Club.

They communicate through the internet.

We've managed to hack into their website.

Some of these men live in the village.

You mean the Sullivans?

Not just the Sullivans.

Look, when we met, I had no idea your husband was involved.

You're cold.

I know what you're thinking.

How could you not have known?

Don't believe it.

It's like these people have another part of their character.

You just saw the normal side.

I slept with that side every night for 11 years.

Why don't you go straight to the police?

Well, they get lots of false accusations.

We need hard evidence.

Don't believe me?

You're telling me you think my husband is a paedophile?

I'm sorry.

Why are you torturing me like this?

Hello, darling.

You went off suddenly?

Yes, I remember I left some work at the school.

Then I went for a long walk.

Sounds nice.

Do you fancy going out tomorrow night?

I haven't been out for dinner for ages.

Sorry, darling, I can't make that.

Why not?

Your sister asked me to babysit tomorrow night.

Bev asked you?

Since when have you babysat for Bev?

She sounded so harassed on the phone. I thought she might need a night out.

You can't.

Why not?

You could have at least warned me.

I wanted it to be a surprise.

Yeah.

You're full of surprises.

Right, I'm going to have to shoot.

Of course you will.

Well, once this operation... Oh, don't kid yourself, Liam.

You always say that.

But it never stops.

It's not even a double life you lead.

At least that way I'd have half of you.

We'll support this one all of a sudden.

It's been coming a long time.

Who have you been talking to?

It's not about what other people say.

It's about what you don't say.

It's Rio, isn't it?

What, the only deep player in it? Liam, don't.

So you have been talking to Rio?

Don't put your interrogation tactics on me!

Anyway, if you've got nothing to hide, what are you so worried about?

What do you think he told me?

Hello, Mum. Hello, Dad.

Hello, sunshine.

How's it going?

We lost both two.

But because of my work...

I have to lie to people to see them.

But I draw a line.

I don't bring my work home.

I don't lie to you.

Have you seen someone else?

No.

Good night, everyone.

Karen?

Okay, okay.

You're safe now.

Does he even know you're here? No.

Right, Karen.

You've got to go back.

You've got to replace this laptop. I can't. I can't go back to him.

a spare bank.

Look, Karen, I can copy the contents of the laptop.

It mightn't be enough to go to the police.

You've got to think about your future.

Leave. Leave.

You can't leave me now.

I've got to go.

What's going to happen?

I'll meet you tomorrow.

One o 'clock.

By the monument on the big hill.

What do I do about Ian?

I'll tell him you're leaving him.

Tell him why?

Just before you go, yeah.

We're ready to go.

Well,

today's the day, bank holiday.

You ready to roll?

How long do you think you'll be?

Depends on the chickens.

Well, look, anything goes pear -shaped. Just go to the chicken shed anyway.

Why? First rule of forensics, destroy all evidence.

Looks like we're on.

Are you getting anything from the copy of his hard disk?

It's encrypted, but I reckon we've got everything.

Passwords, email addresses, membership lists.

Give me half an hour.

So there was a laptop.

Hey, it's a guy I thought too.

He should be heading into the chicken shed by now.

I'll get on the near side of the common. No change. Repeat. No change.

The most recent web page from the Gretel Club. It was saved on the hard disk.

Here we go.

Kingswood has asked for a boy, aged 8 to 10, fair complexion, blonde hair.

Sound like ordering a pizza.

They get fixated on a certain type of target.

Well, let's strike them before they get anywhere near.

Hard evidence, Liam. No room for ambiguity. You don't want to put any

danger. No.

And I don't want them getting off with four years and good behaviour.

Come here, boy.

Oi. Where are you?

Come on, boy. Come on. Where are you?

You lost your dog.

Oh.

Yes, I have.

Border Collie. Answers to the name of Jack.

It's a nuisance, really.

I'm supposed to be helping my son with the ice cream van.

Would you like to earn a bit of money?

How's that?

Ever sold ice creams?

Echo Delta, proceeding.

Target two.

He's sending a boy over to the ice cream van.

This is going too far, Josie. I don't want any loopholes. Pull them now. You

enough? No.

You can't let a kid go in the van.

Everything's under control.

Nothing is under control.

Who's running this operation, Liam?

Karen.

What's going on?

Are you going somewhere?

Yes, I'm leaving you.

What? I'm leaving you, Ian.

Why?

Because of what you're doing there with that laptop.

Have you come to give me a hand, then?

Yeah. How much are you going to pay me?

cross infection what does that mean sterilize everything

there's

our conspiracy okay strike team one stand by the surgery strike team two

strike i said two oh i thought you said one another one

Out of the way, girls. Don't move. Keep your hands where I can see them.

It's not

me.

I didn't do anything.

Dad?

Dad!

Target two on the move.

Driving a van on the other side of the common.

Keep your eyeball.

Stand off.

Stand off. Let him run.

What's the point?

He's a running hare. Let's see where he leads us.

Have you got a visual on the chicken chair?

Sure. Switch to camera 17.

This should be it.

No sign of him.

What happened there? We must be the thieves. A little mechanical to me.

How long till you get back up there?

We've got all our resources on the target. We should be pulling the doctor

moment now.

Rio, Rio, with me.

Target locating vehicle at lay -by. Now crossing the field.

Temporary loss. Repeat.

Anybody got the eyeball on the target?

Repeat.

Anyone got the eyeball on the target?

Negative. Total loss.

Repeat. Total loss.

What's happening, Lee? Where are we going?

Liam, talk to me.

I can't talk to you, Rio.

Why? Why's that?

Everything I end up telling you leaks somewhere.

You're a pipeline.

Yeah, well, that is out of order.

All the way to my wife.

You crossed the line, Rio.

I need to trust my backup with my life, and with you, I can't.

Yeah, well, I think you finally lost it.

Get paranoid.

Up here.

The strangest feeling of déjà vu.

They say that PDs always return to the scene of their own abuse.

What are you playing at, Garth? Only with the roles reversed.

You're not in security, are you?

And you're not a member of Mensa, are you, Keith?

You're a policeman.

Clever boy.

You're going to put the gun down very slowly.

No, you're not.

Do you want me to surrender it or not?

Do you want to spend the rest of your life in a VP wing?

Getting beaten up by other prisoners?

Turn around.

You know what the sad thing is.

You know you're ill, don't you, Keith?

You do all this, all your sick little games,

but really you want to get caught.

I've got a silver bullet in here for you, Keith.

I could set us both free.

Yes.

You don't really want to drop the weapon, do you?

I don't understand. How did he get the firearm in there? He must have stashed

earlier. Why didn't you ask for backup?

That's all I have to say. I had an honest and firmly held belief he was

shoot.

You might be able to kid the SIO, but it won't wash with me, Garth. What won't

wash? This was a set -up, if ever I saw one. I don't know what you're talking

about.

Thank you.
