In the wallet was an Irish driver's license for a Lee Manning. Your husband

found dead today in Montreal.

What if Lee Manning had something on someone at the firm? Someone who had a

in Sarah's first husband's death.

The guards have been asking about Kieron's death. They're wondering if

a connection.

There's no proof that Kieron's was anything but an accident.

And if you prove that it wasn't, then there's something very, very wrong

that firm.

Now you're going to war with a company worth billions.

On a hunch.

An idea that Lehan planted in your head. What if you heard him wrong?

My car was bugged. Lee's car was bugged. Somebody searched my house. Barry Lehan

is in hospital. Those are facts, Nuala.

As she casts her own for answers, she might direct her anger at my firm.

She's a problem.

I have some very interesting friends. One of them in the U .S. Embassy out in

Balls Bridge there.

What else has she used you for that she doesn't want to get her fingerprints on?

Keep her trap shut. Open the door.

Do you know why my sister's husband was killed? I said maybe the all -American

girl does. I could lead you to her. All it's going to cost you is money.

They fished Walsh out of the canal.

He was helped on his way.

Your first husband died under the same circumstances, Miss Manny.

I didn't have anything to do with it. If you're thinking about getting out of

Dublin, you might want to let me know. To help Tommy.

To make sure you're safe.

At least we won't have to deal with that creep Conor Corshaw.

I bet he knew something.

He had something to tell him.

He's lying on the floor with them now.

Back at the starting gate.

We get half a dozen of these floaters a year.

Some jump in, some fall in, and others are helped on their way.

There's constant water movement in the docks. He could have been killed

on the canal, thrown in, drifted there.

He was carrying a money roll and his phone.

We found them on him, so it wasn't a robbery.

We have his phone.

You get me the stuff off that phone and I'll buy a bottle of wine, whatever you

like. Call me as soon as you have something.

Yeah, I want to guard outside Mr. Barry Lahand's room in the intensive care unit

night and day.

I know they will shout blue murder about paying overtime, but it's important.

I need to know what he knows about what might be a case of double homicide.

Thank you so much for coming.

One of my colleagues has been making inquiries in Montreal on behalf of the

consulate, so he'll tell you as much as we know so far.

It is the belief of the police in Montreal that your husband was killed at

hotel and his body deliberately left in the street.

We would like to know if you recognize any of these men.

Should I?

Who are they?

I'm told they are Irish organized crime figures in Montreal.

It's possible they were involved in your husband's death.

Have you had any dealings with them in Dublin?

Organized crime.

My husband was in sales and marketing.

Was that all he was?

He carried a gun, it seems. If it wasn't his?

It was found in his hotel room. Why would he take... The risk of taking it

through airport security.

If they found it, he could have denied it was his. It wouldn't be the end of

world. Not carrying a gun, that clearly would have been.

It may be that one of these men killed your husband for an envelope he was

carrying.

That'll have been taken.

It's the last time he's spoke to, um... It's a yes.

I love you.

I didn't even know he'd gone to Montreal.

That was the deal. That's how he lived. The firm insisted on it.

I've never seen any of these men before, and if Lee ever met them...

I'd have never known about it.

He'd have made sure of that.

He received a phone call from the hotel lobby.

Personal.

It was a personal phone call on something that mattered a great deal to

my decision... Our decision for me not to go back to work for a few years yet,

but to have a child.

You detected nothing in his voice that alarmed you? There was no hint that...

Somebody was going to kill him and dump his body on the street. No.

Had he expressed any concern about going on this business trip?

In the last few weeks or days, had he seemed unusually worried? Worried enough

to get a gun?

Did the Montreal police ask you to ask me that? They are interested in anything

you tell me which could be of help to them.

It makes no sense that Lee carried a gun.

It makes no sense he'd be so scared he'd need to carry one, or let alone he

could have been on his way to kill somebody, but... It makes no sense that

somebody took the trouble here in Dublin to track him and me 24 hours of the

day.

And you know what really makes no sense?

That he's never coming home again.

I was just in with Mr. Duquesne. I had an appointment.

I forgot to write down his extension number to get back to him.

Okay, Duquesne? Yeah, in the consular section.

I'll look it up for you.

Oh, God, sorry, sorry.

No, no, no worries.

I'll clean it up.

Jimmy. Two minutes.

It's official business, Mr. Hanlon. Where's my office? This won't wait.

It's something that needs careful handling.

It needs someone who knows his way around Kildare Street, as well as that

here on Harcourt Street.

We've had our rollings out in the past, I know.

But your advice on this would be very welcome, before it turns into the kind

headlines none of us want, in politics or the police.

Isn't science marvelous?

How was school?

It was school.

How about you, Rose?

The Dublin Bay sales rep. We got himself into a jam in Montreal.

Who was it that broke the news to his wife?

And that thing in Dublin Airport connected to it. Who's got the file on

His address book is intact.

So it's a call log.

Calls made, missed, received.

And all the photos are there too.

Zoom in.

That was the car that went to the U .S. Embassy after meeting Walsh.

Eimear Byrne?

I'm tied up. Can it wait? We might have a breakthrough into who Cormac Walsh was

working for.

I have to take the file to who?

Hello? Sarah Manning? Yes.

Elisa Bell.

I was Lee's first wife.

How did you and Lee meet?

A friend of mine in New York suggested that I might like him.

He was working for a Wall Street firm. I was in finance, too.

We hit it off right away.

He was funny and smart, and he'd been a military brat just like me.

His dad had been a Marine. Mine was Army.

There were real problems there between him and his dad.

His mom separated but lost custody for reasons he didn't want to talk about but

must have been pretty bad.

After a while, I realized it was always going to be hard to get close to him.

Perhaps if we'd had children, things might have been different.

How did you find out he was dead?

How do you find out anything these days?

Somebody I work with came across it on the Internet.

She knew I'd been married to him.

His firm didn't contact you?

I have no idea who Lee worked for after we split.

I had no idea he was in Ireland.

Gumbiner Fisher didn't get in touch with you then?

suggest you come and see me.

Gumbiner, there's... there's a bit of mystery about Lee's death.

How do you mean?

I'm not sure I'm being told everything.

From them.

From anyone. I wish I could help.

I just wanted to say... I liked Lee very much.

Very, very much.

It just didn't work out between us.

It seems to me he might have found what he was looking for with you. He had.

I thought the same until... I better go.

Until what?

It doesn't matter now.

Until... There was someone else.

All the time.

He covered his tracks well, but I had to accept that there had been three people

in that relationship.

Oh, I can make excuses for him.

The way he was brought up, never being able to trust anyone, not being able to

share what he did at work.

But he cheated.

Some people have to.

Can we just leave it there?

Did you ever see Lee with a gun?

A gun?

He had a gun.

He flew to Montreal with it.

No. I never saw him with a gun. You pick on guns over there, of course.

With it...

Chicago, you said you met him. I said Wall Street, New York. Was your dad a

Marine or was his?

Have I got that mixed up?

My dad was Army.

His was in the Marines. Somebody you know just happened to spot his name on

Internet in Paris. Is that where you said you were? I didn't.

It was actually Berlin.

And it was my closest friend. She knows everything about me.

Do you have a photo?

A photo?

Something that connects you to him.

For real.

Something that showed you really did know Lee that you weren't just sent here

keep me quiet.

I don't understand.

No, it's all a bit too neat.

You coming here like this just now. See, if you really knew Lee, wouldn't you

want to know about the investigation?

I know how upsetting this all must be for you without adding to it. But here

are at my doorstep, having found my address.

What exactly are you accusing me of? If I'm crazy... Upset.

Let's just say that. Crazy.

Let's use the right word. If I'm wrong... Something like this.

Is that what you mean?

Lee and me. Central Park.

The only one I kept.

I can't imagine what you're going through.

I can't imagine.

Why, whoever sent you to tell me all these lies thought I would believe them

one minute. Even backed up with a photo that would take an eight -year -old five

minutes to fake on a computer.

You and Lee.

Central Park.

Only one you kept.

Get out of my house. Tell whoever sent you, whoever you're working for, if they

want war.

The man involved at the airport, Cormac Walsh, ended up in the canal. We

recovered his phone records.

Most of his contacts are known, drug dealers, criminals, and their

But there's one number that he called the day before he was killed.

This may be linked to this woman.

This is the last photo on Walsh's phone.

The vehicle in the shot is when she got into after meeting him, just after he

was caught trying to remove a tracking device from Lee Manning's car.

The vehicle is registered to the General Services Department of the United

States Embassy at Balls Bridge.

You're suggesting that an employee of the United States Embassy is involved?

I intend to call the number and see who picks up.

Two minutes after you do that, I'd get a phone call from Ivy House.

The Minister for Foreign Affairs has been trying to be on the line shouting

murder about the Vienna Convention.

If she had diplomatic immunity, we couldn't even give her a parking ticket,

alone rope her in for questioning.

Cormac Walter is a threat to her, and he died last night. Maybe she holds the

key as to why Lee Manning was killed.

It's not our case.

It's a job for Montreal.

Remember that.

We'll give them what help we can, but it's out of our jurisdiction.

Well, there's also an employee of the German Federal Intelligence Service

working the case here.

Lee Manning may have been part of the Gumbiner Fisher sales team, but he used

work for the CIA.

It's a possibility he was still working for them undercover.

Any other goodies?

He carried a concealed weapon to Montreal.

A handgun designed to be virtually undetectable to airport scanners and

for close -quarter use.

Now, the question is whether that was a one -off or whether he did it regularly.

Which gives us another headache.

You will not make that call. You will, in fact, remove yourself from anything

do with any aspect of this case.

Everything is now in my hands. I'll assume full operational control.

I'm off the case.

That's what I just said.

Do you have anything else?

No, that's all I have.

Any other notes, files?

No.

Your day book, let me see that.

This is a complete record of the contact phone numbers and conversations you've

had on the case?

Yes. Anything on computer?

No.

I'll hold on to this for a moment.

You can start a new one. There won't be any reference to this case in it because

it's nothing to do with you now.

Have I done something wrong, sir?

On the contrary.

Rank has its privileges.

You conducted the preliminary investigation into a highly complex case

exemplary fashion.

It's not a black mark.

It's a vote of confidence.

Thanks to your hard work, however, we can't have anyone lower than Chief

Superintendent handling the case.

It's my baby now.

I have to justify the big office of the car.

You won't be in Dublin for the foreseeable future, anyway. You'll be in

London?

We're sending you on a course to the Metropolitan Police College in Hendon.

Eight weeks, reserved for officers from all over Europe, tipped to rise to the

highest ranks.

We had another candidate in mind, but I always had my doubts about him.

Whether he could go all the way, right to the top.

I think you could do that.

You're going in his place.

Congratulations.

Blood.

Mrs. Manning.

I had a visitor today.

I need to tell you about her.

Not really the best timing for me.

It's important.

Really important. Either they've just shown their hand about how worried they

are, or I really am losing my marbles.

Hello? Detective Byrne?

Mum. Not now, love. All right? Please.

No, I said not now.

Sorry.

Thanks for coming straight round.

I was going to have to see you anyway.

She was an American.

She said she was Lee's first wife. She pulled the rabbit out of the hat when

showed me this photo. Or, no, she thought she did.

She was trying too hard.

She was sent by somebody who doesn't want me to dig any further, who wants me

bury whatever questions I have about who Lee was, how and why he died when I

bury him.

If that sounds mental, try this.

I was at the Canadian consulate today.

I was given a very polite third degree by a Canadian cop.

I worked in criminal defense before I went into the corporate world.

I can tell a flat foot mile away.

I met him.

Decane.

Montreal homicide. You met him?

Before he asked for a formal interview at you, he wanted to... To weigh me up.

See where the land lay, figure out how deep I was in this.

If I knew that Lee was on the hook to gangsters or was even one himself.

Mum, we have to leave.

Just give me a minute, Eamon.

Mum, we have to leave now and Rosie's really upset.

Wait in the car.

It'll be two minutes.

I'm on first. I can't be late. Okay, okay. Go on, wait in the car.

I'm taking the organised crime aspect of your husband's death in Montreal

seriously.

So seriously that I've ordered a round -the -clock watch on Lehan.

There are other aspects of the case that I'm not free to talk about, which

indicate that it needs to be handled at the highest possible level.

This is now happening.

Getting the attention that it needs and the resources that it needs.

That means I'm off the case.

It's going to be handled at the chief superintendent level from now on.

You should be happy about that.

You're not dealing with it?

From now on, if you need to call someone, it can't be me.

This is good news for the case. Believe me, it's the best you could hear.

Call me Sarah and say that again.

Is it good news?

Really?

I don't know. Sarah?

I don't know, Sarah.

Then why are you going along with it?

I don't have a choice.

But I want both to get to the truth. There are things that I can do and

And now it's gone to this level. You broke.

The noose to me. I know. That means something.

I know. And now you're dumping it.

My hands are tied. And you're happy with that?

Why?

Oh, because... Because Nuala upset you?

You don't want any part of it because of her?

Believe it or not, I actually like your sister.

She's sticking up for you.

I wish I had someone in my family who stuck up for me. You found out something

that somebody didn't want you to know. You got close to something that they

don't want you or me to find. So they closed you down and you're going along

with it.

I'm scared that I'm losing my mind and even more scared that I'm not.

How can you be more scared than me?

I don't have a choice.

We all have a choice.

Yeah, well, I don't have time to be fair Look

I

believe

everything that you told me about whoever it was who came to see you today

also to believe that passing the case upstairs to people with real power and

connections is the best way of getting the truth.

They'll get a result.

I know hot air when I hear it.

Yeah? I got someone on the line for you.

Who's asking for me?

Nuala Mulvaney.

Put her through.

I'm coming.

You know I wouldn't have asked unless I had to.

I do.

Do you mind if I... Go ahead.

I was at that once.

With you?

I was a bit wild then.

Did you know him well?

He never let anybody get close but her.

I was just happy she found somebody after Ciarán.

And he really did seem to love those kids.

Is this about Lee?

It's about both of them.

Last time I spoke to a guard, I was in handcuffs at one of those hills. They

shook me up.

I'm clean now.

This is about Ciarán and Lee.

Three weeks ago, I got a call about one of my flats.

I went round to show it, but he didn't turn up.

I walked back.

A car pulled up.

It was Lee.

He said, did I want to go for a coffee? I said, sure.

On the way, we drove past the canal lock that Ciarán was pulled out of.

He parked, started talking.

What a terrible thing it had been.

Did I think it was too soon, him moving in with Sarah, getting married, things

like that. He seemed serious, like... He really wanted to know.

Then he started asking about the night it happened, the days leading up to it,

Ciarán's state of mind, what were the details, who were his friends at the

how did he get on with the people he worked with, things I had no idea about.

He was digging into Ciarán's death?

Wanted to know what people said about it, knew about it, people who had any

connection at all with it, even second -hand.

We drove on, had coffee, but it bothered me.

When I got back to the office, I checked on the calls setting up the showing of

the flat.

You're the guard. You can guess what I found.

Fake phone number and fake name. Meaning?

Lee Manning set it all up to ask those questions.

Did you not go back to him and ask him about it?

He wasn't the kind of person you ask that kind of question.

He was quiet, kept himself to himself, but you got the message somehow.

Don't mess with him.

Have you shared any of this with your sister? No, and I'd appreciate it if you

didn't tell her.

I won't be doing that.

I won't be on the case from now on.

It's been kicked upstairs.

It's better for Sarah, believe me.

Oh, no, Sarah.

What?

I said I would help look after the kids tonight.

Gamer.

Gary, I need a favor of mine.

I'm being followed.

Why are you following me? What is this?

Get back here.

Now.

Rose?

I'm here.

Sorry it took me so long. I had things to finish off.

Rose?

You were great.

Really great.

So amazing. I was so proud of you.

Come on.

Let's go home to Rose.

You went to see her?

Haven't been told you're off the case?

I went to see her to tell her that.

I met her sister. She has some new information.

Lee Manning was investigating Kieron's death just before he was killed himself.

Is this personal for you?

Is she a pal of yours?

Do you have a relationship or something?

Anything I should know?

It's nothing like that.

You sure of that?

It's a professional relationship with somebody who I once considered a

but I don't anymore.

All the evidence... All the guesswork is.

Isn't that what you mean?

I'm not asking to be put back on the case, sir, but there's something very

inside that firm.

Sarah Manning was asked to sign a confidentiality agreement to stop asking

questions. She refuses and asks them anyway, then someone shows up out of the

blue to answer them.

Whoever killed Cormac Walsh could be the key, and we have a solid lead to them

thanks to his phone.

You're as keen as mustard, Eber.

You want to wrap this case up all by yourself.

Well, from now on, it's going to be my way.

I'll say this one last time and note it well.

I'm handling this.

If it all goes south, I'll take the foe. All you have to do is pack your bags

and go to London.

Thank you.

How are things going with that bit of a favor I asked you, Jimmy?

It's Chief Superintendent Nolte to you.

I don't like you, Alan.

I've never liked you.

I don't like your politics or your manner or your faith.

This is the last and only time I want to see you, except on TV.

And even then, I might put my foot through it.

Fair enough.

Well, I hope you kept nothing back.

I'm a great fan of the Gardaí myself.

They provide many a job opportunity for those who couldn't hold one down

elsewhere.

At your level, Jimmy, you're not a cop.

You're a politician too.

We're both whores for votes and other people's good opinion of us, so don't

me that.

You want to be chief commissioner in the next couple of years and I can help you

get there. Do you know that or you wouldn't be standing here?

Now cut the bollocks and give me a straight answer.

Are you going to sit on this case or not?

I am not sitting on this case. I've called it in for special handling,

all.

There are policy questions that I need to get straight, decisions that I'm not

going to allow the force to be rushed into making.

I'm fully aware of the political implications, maybe even more than you.

That's why I'll be keeping tabs on everything, including what mischief the

is trying to make.

That detective...

The one who's been running the case. Seymour Byrne is a very fine officer who

needed reminding of the chain of command.

She's had that reminder in known certain terms because I keep my house in order

and my staff in line.

Detective Byrne won't be a problem from now on.

She's been put back in her box.

I can't find her and she's not answering her phone.

Rose?

I'm...

I'm

sorry. What happened?

I trapped you to be here.

Something more important come up. It wasn't like that. What was it like?

It'll keep.

I have an idea where she is.

Yes. The late Cormac Walsh gave me this number just before he went for a dip in

the canal.

Cormac who?

Never heard of him.

I have a photograph of you alongside him.

I don't have your name yet, but I know where you work.

I want to know how it all ties in with a death in Montreal.

So you meet me and talk, or I'll come to the door of the U .S. Embassy first

thing tomorrow. You decide.

I'm sorry you're so angry with me.

I'm trying to give you and Eamon all the time and everything else you should

have from me, but... But it's hard.

Oh, darling, it's so hard.

Listen, listen, listen.

I'm going to be here for you.

I promise that's never going to change.

I won't get it right every time.

But I'll try.

I really will.

It's you, Mrs. Manning?

Yes.

Me and Rose.

Sorry if I startled you.

There's been a few break -ins here.

There's a bit of a rodent problem with the human, Dr. Arthur, if I get my

meaning.

I was sorry to hear about, you know...

Why don't you wait for me in the car a minute?

Keep warm.

Yeah?

You saw quite a bit of Lee when he came here.

I did, yeah.

He always had time for a word.

Gentleman.

Funny thing to say about a yank, but that's what he was.

He used to slip me a few quid for keeping an extra eye on the boat, on the

Where's the harm, I said to myself.

He gets the rest easy, I get a couple of quid in my back pocket.

Did anyone ever try to get on our boat?

No, but they hit the bar in the ATM once.

With ructions about that.

Sorry, one more question.

When did Lee last come here?

He took her out about three weeks ago.

There was a bit of a gale blowing, but that didn't deter him.

Not quite what I asked.

When did you last see him here?

Just before it was on the telly.

Montreal, what happened to him?

The day before. He came here the day before.

You're certain of that? I keep a log.

I have to. Can I see it?

I'm lying to you.

He said nothing at all about coming here to me, and it could be important.

Well, that wouldn't be any of my business, and I might have

said more than I should already. I have to get back. Duty calls.

Are those cameras turned on?

You don't mind if they weren't?

How long do you keep the information on them?

Stop.

Go for it.

Okay, stop.

Newman?

I'm gonna try to change things.

About how I've been handling all this.

Make more time for you and Eamon.

Be fairer to the pair of you.

I'm sorry you thought you had to do this.

I understand, though.

Do you believe me?

I get it.

She was at the boat?

Yeah.

Okay.

Hey.

You did really great tonight.

I'm so proud of you.

Yeah.

Can you stay a little longer?

Can I touch you with that?

There's something else I have to say.

Sorry Vy.

And how much you looked at the boat.

I'm not crazy.

I'm not off my rocker. I'm not imagining things.

Your hand. It's all true.

And I know where he hid the gun.

It was in the last place you'd think to look, where you'd be staring straight at

it, but right through it, too.

My God.

Never quite believed the bit about the gun.

I'm still holding on to the idea that they'd got it wrong, but there it is.

He went there.

The night before he flew to Montreal to get it. And to hide this.

What Cornel Gwalt was sent here to look for. It's got hotel bills, receipts,

tickets, dubs, photocopies of travel itineraries, a record of everywhere he'd

been for the firm, all the places they sent him.

There's this too, Ciarán.

Newspaper reports about the inquest.

Even the in memoriam.

There's an address here in Dublin.

Do you know it?

I've been there.

In that house where Barry Lahan lives.

Why would Lee be interested in him?

Maybe he was worried that Lahan was onto him.

Onto him?

Sarah, come on.

I just about scraped by with a leaving certificate. You're the brains of the

family.

When did Lee join Gumbiner Fisher?

A few months before Ciarán took a header off a canal bank.

Six months before.

When did he get in touch again?

He phoned a few months after Ciarán died to see how I was.

Did I remember him? Would I like to go for dinner with him sometime? I said it

was too soon, but that, you know, we could go for a walk. That's how it

So you bury Ciarán?

He's out of the way and then Lee, and I admit I was never his biggest fan, shows

up in your life again because he's been watching you.

He was sweet. He said if... He said if I wasn't ready that he would back off.

I wasn't going to tell you this, but... Here goes.

You might need this for the time I'm through.

weeks ago, Lee grilled me on what I knew about Ciarán's death.

He did what?

That's the only word for it.

A cross -examination.

He went through a great deal of trouble to make it look as if he'd bumped into

me by accident.

Now we know he was staking out Lehan as well.

Why else would Lee do that unless he was scared that the head of security at the

firm was on to him, thought he was involved somehow?

One, two, three, four, five.

Why would Lee do all of that unless he thought Lehan was a threat?

A threat because he had reason to believe Lehan suspected him of being

night Ciarán died at the canal lock.

Are you getting what I'm saying?

Lee wanted you. Every time he was with you, he was mad about you.

Kieron was in his way, and Kieron had to go. Yeah, you're making this up. Now,

Lee Manning, whoever the hell he was, made sure he got what he wanted, even if

that meant bringing a gun to do it.

So giving a drunk a helping hand in the... Stop!

Leave here now because I'm not listening to this. I am not listening to this

anymore. You have to.

For your own sake and for your kids.

That is what Lehan was trying to warn you about.

He was telling you to open your own eyes because he was putting together the

proof.
