She'd never mentioned he had a dad.

Oh, jeez!

The son is missing.

Would you mind coming and helping me look for him, John?

Tell me where he is.

No.

No!

He's in Glasgow.

My sister.

What the hell are you doing here?

What is that?

It's hanging his necklace.

What possible reason could Dad have for having that in his possession?

We'll both go to cold water in the morning.

Are we good?

Are we still friends?

It's been a funny night.

Oh, Harlequin.

Harlequin!

Where are you, Harlequin?

We've got your biscuits.

Harlequin, where are you?

Harlequin!

Where are you?

I think I saw him.

Harlequin!

Harlequin!

We've got your biscuits.

Harlequin, are you there?

Hello, you two.

You haven't lost your wee pussycat, have you?

Oh, thank God.

Harry!

Harry!

Lyle!

What's going on?

What are you doing here?

Harlequin didn't come home last night.

Dear.

Could be some nasty predator's got his claws into him.

Thanks for your help last night, John.

See the Bible group tonight?

No, Tommy.

I can't.

Bye, Harry.

You're going to be late.

We're going to Benny the Badger play park.

Benny the Badgers.

I used to take my kids there.

I'll keep an eye out for your cat.

Right, get in the car.

Hurry up.

Hurry up.

Hurry.

Fee!

Fee!

Fee!

I want you to take them.

What?

I'm in no state to go on a play date.

Not at everything that happened last night.

You're going to say no to me.

Where am I going?

They're meeting some friends from school.

The dad's called Dave.

I'll text you the details.

Where are Jez and Pippa?

Well, they went home early, obviously.

Look, I'm going to go home.

I'm going to go home.

I'm going to go home.

I'm going to go home.

I'm going to go home.

I'm going to go home.

I'm going to go home.

I'm going to go home.

I'm going to go home.

Early, obviously.

Look, I'm sorry about last night.

I don't want to hear it.

Can we talk later?

There's something I have to tell you.

They're meant to be there already.

I love you.

So, when the kids arrive, I'll suggest a picnic.

I think the more normal we are as a family unit, the better.

It's...

Toby, if you're experiencing impulses, please share it with me.

It's under control.

Then why did you kill the cat?

How did you know?

Because you look happy and ten years younger.

Really?

Yes.

It's only a cat.

If it's only a cat, then fine.

If it's something you just had to get out of your system.

That's all it is.

I'm worried it's a harbinger of things to come.

No.

I did it for you.

For me?

Mm-hmm.

It was bringing out your allergies, wasn't it, love?

It was a horrible cat.

Repugnant.

Stupid name.

Harley Quinn.

Ooh, they're here.

So remember, happy families.

Big smiles.

Say, I love you, Dad, and give him a big hug.

Just be normal.

We're a normal family and we're delighted to see them.

I'm so sorry, Mum.

You're here now, Cameron.

That's all that matters.

In you come.

Come here, you.

It's good to see you, Mum.

It's good to see you.

Come on, my darling.

In you come.

I love you, Dad.

Always overcome.

Nice to see you, Moira Jean.

You too.

So I thought we could all go for a picnic.

So how are you liking living here anyway?

Sorry, do you mind if we don't talk?

I've got a bit of a headache.

Headache.

Um.

I think you've got a...

A nosebleed.

Oh.

Sure.

Standard one.

Uh...

Maybe.

Come on.

Can I come in?

If you'll head to see my husband, you can fuck off.

He's not in.

Wait, no, no, no, don't.

The last person I wanted to see is your husband.

I came here to speak to you.

Me?

Why?

I do.

Fiona, please, can you let me inside?

I don't want Tom White to see me here.

Well?

Do you know where John was last night?

Why asking me that?

Tommy and John came into my house and attacked me.

They attacked you?

Well, John attacked you?

Why the fuck is John hanging about with a prick like Tommy for it anyway?

Can't you see him for what he is?

How?

How did they attack you?

Tommy.

Tommy attacked me.

He...

He...

Grabbed me by the throat, choked me till I couldn't breathe.

I thought I was going to fucking die.

And what did John do?

John...

Well, John stopped him.

He, um...

Yeah, he...

He got him off of me and got him out the house.

I think if John hadn't have been there, Tommy might have killed me.

Fiona, he has to be stopped.

I'm not just being some drama queen.

I swear to you, my life was in danger.

Yeah, I can believe it.

I've been alone in a room with Tommy.

I get a sense of what he's capable of.

Yeah, I've been through this with him before.

Through what?

He's been violent before.

Oh, I'd better go out.

Don't let John be fooled by Tommy.

He's better than that.

I'm sorry that I never visit.

Got a very busy life.

I do.

A few more phone calls would be nice.

Yeah.

Even an address I could send a Christmas card to.

I'm seeing a therapist.

Oh.

Do you mean you're seeing a therapist like a boyfriend or you're in therapy?

I'm in therapy.

Oh.

That's nice.

It's very helpful.

Yes.

What do you talk about?

It's mainly my childhood.

Being adopted and stuff.

Oh.

Well, that's therapy for you, isn't it?

I was actually wondering, um, all those things that I had as a child, are they still here?

What things?

You know, like school reports and old photos, cuddly toys.

Yeah, I'm sure they're in a box somewhere in the garage.

Why do you ask?

Well, I was just thinking I could have a look through them.

Maybe take some special things back to Glasgow.

I miss you when I'm away.

We miss you very much, Myra Jane.

I will go and get a picnic blanket.

That's a great idea.

I'll just pack up here.

So what's going on, Cameron?

Maybe my body's sick about you.

Sorry.

Can you stop looking at your phone, please?

Well, you were just on your phone.

Yeah, well, I'm not anymore.

We're talking now.

Eye contact, please.

You didn't take something of mine, did you?

Why would I take something of yours?

Yeah.

Why would you?

Can you get out of the car, please, Cameron?

What?

I forgot I need to do something.

What is it?

Just get out.

John, can I have a word?

I won't take up much time.

Harry, go and play with your friend.

Good boy.

How old's the wee man?

He's six.

Enjoy it while you can.

Life holds all sorts of horrors ahead for them.

I can't imagine losing a child.

I'm so sorry for you.

Thanks for carrying his coffin.

I was honored to help.

I just wondered, you said that you'd never met him before, yeah?

Yeah, I think I said I didn't know him.

Is that true, though?

I had met him before.

The night he died, he and I had a fight in a shop.

Well, not really a fight.

He threatened me, and I walked away from him.

I didn't want to tell you, because obviously it's not the kind of thing you want to tell someone.

I'd feel...

Thanks.

I can appreciate that.

And thanks for telling me now.

You're welcome.

Harry, come down now, please.

Come on.

Did you tell the police this?

They never asked me.

Well, would you mind if I told the police?

Why?

Because I believe my son was murdered.

I did.

And this information might help him trace his steps that night.

Yeah, of course.

Anything to help.

Slow down.

Do you, uh, do you enjoy running at night?

Excuse me?

Well, you enjoy running, yeah?

Yes.

So, uh, so do you go running at night?

Sometimes.

Must be hard to run in the dark, eh?

You could fall over.

You might hurt yourself.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I have a witness, John.

A witness to what?

A witness that saw you covered in blood on the night my son died.

What do you want from me?

I want you to come with me.

I want you to talk to the police.

I can't do that.

I want you to look me in the eye and tell me you did not murder my son.

You were covered in blood, John.

You were covered in the blood of my boy.

Okay, I'll come with you.

Just, just let me talk to my wife first, please.

Slow down the morning, John.

I'm going to the police.

With or without you.

It's my turn!

It's my turn!

Fiona, I killed Angus.

It was me.

I did it.

I killed him.

I killed Angus.

Fiona?

Harlequin's dead.

Yeah, I was, I was trying to tell you this morning.

No idea how it happens.

It doesn't look like he's been run over.

How are we going to tell the children?

They're going to be heartbroken.

Katrina came to see me.

She came here?

She said Tommy attacked her.

Yeah, it was horrible.

He got really violent.

Did you help him?

John, did you hit her?

No, of course not.

You know.

I would never hit her woman.

There's a lot about your behavior.

John, I don't know who you are anymore.

And I don't know who we are.

I did my best to stop here.

Why do you want to be friends with someone like that?

He attacks women.

I'm not friends with him anymore, okay?

I'm sorry.

Fia, I think he killed Harlequin.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Why would he do something?

Did you see him do it?

No.

Well, then how did you know?

I think he did it as a kind of warning.

What do you mean, a warning?

It's hard to explain.

We should call the police.

The police?

Yes, he can't get away with that kind of behavior.

We need to do something.

Could you just sit down, please?

No, no.

Please, there's a lot I have to tell you.

No, I don't want to sit down.

I want you to do something about Tommy.

How's Dad doing?

He's fine.

Dad?

Dad?

Yeah.

Why'd you ask?

Well, has he been acting funny lately?

What do you mean?

Well, Cameron was saying he's been a bit strange lately.

I haven't noticed.

Cameron?

It's John.

It's John.

John?

Okay, what about John?

Your father likes to make new friends.

What's wrong with that?

What do you think happened to Angus Gillespie?

Do you think it was really a fire?

What else would it be?

Yeah.

What else would it be?

It was John.

John killed Angus, okay?

And Dad's helping him cover it up.

I saw John come to the house covered in blood the night that Angus died.

And then Dad got in his car and drove away.

It was at like four in the morning.

I saw it all.

Mum, I know this is a lot to take in.

And I don't know if it's true.

At four o'clock in the morning on the night of Angus's death, I know exactly where your

father was.

He came in and he woke me up.

He said that John had had a nasty accident when I started jogging.

He wanted me to get a first aid kit.

I couldn't find a first aid kit.

So I told him to go down to the church to pick one up.

Is this why you went to Glasgow?

I found that in Dad's shed.

It was Angus's necklace.

So you're stealing from your father now?

Mum, why does Dad have Angus's necklace?

Well, you wouldn't know this, Myra Jane, but Nathan and your father used to be very,

very close friends.

And Angus used to be like a son to your father.

And over the years, they just drifted apart.

But, um, well, Nathan wanted to give this to your father as a memento to remember Angus

by.

He said it was too, uh, he said it was too painful to hold on to, so he gave it to your

father to keep.

Shame on you.

Shame on both of you.

I am disappointed beyond words.

And I was having such a nice day.

Shame on both of you.

Nathan.

Tell me.

What are you doing here?

Just running a few errands.

Having car trouble.

I don't understand.

Never done this before.

Let me take a look.

Come on.

Pop the bonnet.

Come on.

Come on.

Pop the bonnet.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Pop the bonnet.

Come on.

Let me get up.

Go.

Come on.

Let me take a look.

Come on.

The battery's done in.

We'll give you a lift.

I can walk.

Looks like it's gonna rain.

Come on.

My car's just here.

Why are we going this way?

So I believe you were speaking to John this morning.

Who's John?

The guy you spoke to this morning.

I wasn't speaking to John.

Well, he says he was speaking to you.

Oh, that John.

I remember that story.

I was talking to him, yeah.

See you in a moment.

Why are we stopping?

You never gave me a chance, did you?

The first week I moved here, it was Angus's birthday party.

He was six.

I introduced myself to it.

And he said, you look stupid.

Do you remember that?

No.

And I turned to you, expecting you to discipline him.

And do you remember what you did?

You laughed and you said, you're right, son.

He does look stupid.

I wouldn't have said anything like that, Tommy.

You're calling me a liar.

You hurt my feelings that day.

You and your boy.

You look stupid.

What do you want me to say, Tommy?

I'm sorry I hurt your feelings 20 years ago.

Yeah.

That's exactly what I want you to say.

Tommy.

I'm sorry.

Genuinely, genuinely sorry.

Okay?

Apology accepted.

Let's go.

But what did you talk to John about?

Okay.

I think that John had something to do with Angus's death.

I have a witness.

A witness that saw John with blood on him.

And I know he's a friend of yours, Tommy.

But I am going to the police.

I need answers.

I need justice for Angus.

Nathan.

John didn't kill your boy.

I think he did.

Well, I know he didn't.

And how do you know he didn't?

Because.

I killed your boy.

He got in a fight with John.

And I went to check Angus and see if he was okay.

He was still breathing.

But when I found him, I put my hand over his mouth and I suffocated him.

Why?

You know, the late Ted Bundy once said he couldn't kill a woman if he knew her too well.

He only liked to kill strangers.

But I have to say, that was never a problem for me.

Why?

Oh my God.

I don't know.

I don't know.

It'll look stupid now, yeah?

I don't know.

Do you want to say goodbye?

I can't even look at him.

Fee...

Oh, poor Harlequin.

Oh, God, I feel sick.

I'm not going to be able to tell them.

You'll have to do it.

Yeah, fine, fine.

Oh, I feel like I'm going mad.

This fucking place.

What did you mean by...

By warning?

Why did you say that Tommy killed Harlequin as a warning?

Mummy, maybe Harlequin should try to find his way back to our house in London and go lost.

Come into the living room with me, sweetheart, as you, me and Harry have a chat about Harlequin.

I shouldn't have even told you.

I should have just kept it to myself.

Well, I'm glad that you told me.

You don't believe it.

But don't you think Mum's explanation was reasonable?

It's more believable than Dad and John being murderers.

You didn't look like you'd been in an accident.

So why would Mum lie?

I don't think she's lying.

Maybe John got to her as well.

No, Cameron!

Look, this is what your psychopaths do.

They manipulate everyone around them.

No, you sound insane.

How do you know he's a psychopath?

I've read all of Dad's books.

Dad's books?

But I know what I'm talking about.

You haven't even met John.

I think we should go back to the house and apologise to Mum.

Cameron!

Work again?

Shhh.

Tommy.

I need to know what's going on.

We work better as a team, don't we?

So don't shut me out.

What's happened?

Look at me.

Look at me.

Oh, Tommy, no.

I didn't mean for it to happen.

He said he had a witness.

Cameron.

Cameron?

Cameron told me that he saw John with blood on him on that night,

so he must have told Nathan.

I knew he was hiding something.

The kids found this.

Did they say anything?

It's fine.

I took my way out of it.

It's...

What would I do without you?

Come here.

What did you do with the body?

I left it in the woods.

You buried it, though.

I couldn't.

It'll be fine.

No one will find it.

I'll go back first, then.

I'll get up early tomorrow morning.

Tommy, why didn't you bury the body?

To get back for white wool grip.

Angus, I can understand.

And even the cat.

But now you're just dumping bloody bodies in the woods.

This has now got out of hand.

It's out of control.

I don't know who's going to be next.

No one's next.

It doesn't go against our agreement.

I haven't killed any women.

Yet.

Both executions were circumstantial and justifiable.

Executions?

That's what they were.

What about the cat?

The cat?

Hmm.

Harlequin is a boy cat.

That's not funny.

Yes, it is.

He's not invincible, Tommy.

Yes, I fucking am.

Oh, my God!

Stop sneaking in on me!

I nearly gave me a fucking heart attack.

How did you get in?

I was wrong.

I thought you were...

Who?

No one, I...

Why are you here?

I had a row with my sister.

MJ's in cold water.

Look, I need somewhere to stay.

Tonight.

Um...

Yeah, okay, fine.

But nothing's going to happen, right?

You sleep on the sofa.

Thanks.

What did you fight about?

Can you just tell me what is going on?

Fine.

I'll tell you, fine.

You're not going to believe me.

Sit down.

Sit.

Tommy says we can do the hot tub.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Oh, come on.

It'll be brilliant, man.

I'm not doing the hot tub.

Not tonight.

I don't want to do the hot tub either.

Is that what Tommy said we're doing?

We haven't done the hot tub for ages.

I'm up for it.

Here.

What do we get Charlie Manson?

It's good, eh?

I didn't read it.

I'm getting sick of these books.

Me and Bobby were saying we should talk to Tommy about getting back to reading the Bible.

Williams.

Bobby.

You made it.

Yeah, wouldn't miss it, Tommy.

I love Charles Manson.

So I thought we'd do the hot tub tonight, boys.

It's a bit nippy, isn't it, no?

You're being a pussy again, Williams.

We, um, we haven't brought our trunks with us.

Sure.

Borrow mine.

I've got tons.

I've set it up already, so I'm not taking no for an answer.

Does anyone want to try giving me no for an answer?

Okay, fucking dokey then.

Hot tub it is.

Hot tub it is.

Let's not talk about it.

Let's pretend it never happened.

Let's have a hug.

Hey, dear.

Tommy, we were wondering.

Well, actually, I was wondering.

Do you think we could go back to being a Bible group?

We are a Bible group.

But do you think we could go back to actually reading the Bible?

I know you're a Christian, Williams, but we all agreed.

We'd had enough of reading the Bible.

Malky's an atheist.

Aye, but I don't mind if that's what the group wants.

Might be nice to be changed.

Well, Bobby's an atheist.

I'm not an atheist.

Yeah, sure.

Not anymore.

I started believing in God again.

Well, Brick is still an atheist.

No, I do think there probably is God, but I could never be a Christian, because I'll pump

in the lasses too much.

Pump in the lasses?

You're a virgin.

Oh, no, no.

I don't want to read the Bible anymore.

I'm not very pleased with God right now.

I feel like he's abandoned me.

Oh, sorry to hear that, Tommy.

Does Rebecca know?

That's none of your business, Williams, you gossling fucking fishwife.

So, eh, are you an atheist now, Tommy?

What is the greatest commandment, according to Jesus?

To love God with all your heart, your soul, and your mind.

Exactly.

So, to answer your question, Malky, no, I'm not an atheist, but I have no love for God

in my heart right now.

In fact, you could say, I hate that.

We're all just waiting on you.

I've been telling myself I'm not happy here, but really, it's a perfectly nice place.

No, I'm starting to wonder if the problem is actually us.

If we truly love each other anymore.

Oh, Fee, please don't do this.

I'm not saying this to be cruel.

I'm telling you this.

Because I can feel that you're holding something back from me.

Do you want out?

Out?

Out, out of this, out of our marriage.

That's the last thing I want.

I love you more than anything in the world.

I can't breathe without you.

Why do you keep trying to sabotage everything?

I'm not, I promise.

You're lying to me about something.

Whatever it is you need to tell me.

We're at the lowest point of our marriage so far.

And what have you got to lose?

I have this fear.

That I'm in danger.

From Tommy.

Look, can we just leave?

Can we just...

Take the children and leave?

Where would we go?

Where would we go?

Where are your mum's house?

You want to drive ten hours to Bromley because you think our neighbour killed our cat?

If I tell you, then everything will be over.

Well, if you can't tell me, why don't I just ask Tom and myself?

Oh, please wait, Fee.

Fee.

We have the very Harlequin.

The kids are waiting.

Can we say a prayer for him, Daddy?

Oh, dear God.

Um...

Please...

Look after Harlequin's soul.

And, um...

Please...

Help me, Lord, to be a better husband and a better father, a better man.

Guide me.

Mummy.

To do the right thing.

Daddy, where's Mummy going?

Show me how to repent.

Daddy!

Daddy!

Oh, shit.

Fee!

Fee!

Hello.

Oh, hi, Rebecca.

Is Tommy in?

Yes, he is.

He's in the back garden with a voice.

Would you like to speak with him?

Yes, please.

Hi, Rebecca.

John, Fiona, this is our daughter, Moira Jane.

Hello.

Hi, nice to meet you.

Can we have a quick word, please?

Everything okay?

Uh, no.

Yeah, it's fine.

Harlequin died.

Our cat.

That's awful.

Yeah, he was run over by a car.

Was he, John?

Was he run over by a car?

Do you two want to come in for a cup of tea?

I'd love to.

Oh, you two.

I am so sorry to hear about your little pussycat.

Do you want to come in with Aunt Rebecca and have some sweets?

Uh, not sweets, not that.

Come on, I insist, I insist.

We don't spend enough time together.

Come on, John, please.

Come on.

In you come.

Moira Jane, take the children into the living room, please.

She'll be fine.

She's a teacher.

Could we just have a...

Yeah, kiss us.

Yes, absolutely.

I'll get the wine.

What?

Are you out of your mind?

Am I out of my mind?

What are you doing?

No one kills my fucking cat.

I am not doing this.

Okay?

No, I am not doing it.

Fine.

You go home.

Put the kids to bed.

I'll deal with it.

Fiona.

V.

V.

Fiona.

Hey, there you go.

You enjoy that with me and you grew up with the boys.

I wanted to ask Tommy something.

Well, I'm sure I can help with whatever it is.

There's no need to bother Tommy with it.

Or maybe John.

Maybe you go on, ask him.

Go on, leave us.

Yeah.

Yeah, I can speak to Tommy.

Ooh.

John, what are you doing here?

We, uh...

We just popped over to say hi.

Did you find your cat?

Yeah.

Unfortunately, he died.

Oh, no.

Well, it wasn't me.

Ah!

So why don't you live in Coldwater?

You could be my teacher.

Well, to be honest, I don't really like it here.

Neither do I.

I think it's boring.

This house is boring.

It's really toys to play with.

Is the camera being safe, Fiona?

Yeah.

I really don't know something happened to that special boy.

I really, really don't.

So, tell me, what is it that you needed to talk to Tommy about?

I don't think our cat was hit by a car.

Ooh.

Really?

Really.

Okay.

Well, how do you think it died?

A fox.

There's a box of toys over there.

I think they were mine when I was little.

Hey, look, sweetie.

Oh, my God.

I think someone strangled him.

You think somebody strangled your cat?

Harry.

Heh.

Harry.

Harry.

Hands up out.

All out of you.

Who would do that?

Oh, I don't know, Rebecca.

I mean, you know the people who live around here better than I do.

Yes.

No, no, no.

No, I really don't think so.

You know your husband better than I do.

Hey, I've done this first.

If you turn to the other side.

I really don't think somebody has killed your cat.

Look out, Fiona.

Honestly, you sound a little bit unhinged.

Heh.

Which is why I want to ask him directly.

Did you kill it?

See this.

Did you kill our cat?

What?

I loved that cat.

I loved Harlequin.

Did I kill your cat?

Are you mad?

You're not stinking straight.

Ow!

Do you want to choke me, Tommy?

The way you choked Katrina last night?

Get her out of here, John.

Now!

Please, please, no.

Not like this.

Rebecca, does he hit you?

Would you take your wife and your children home, please, John?

Oh, God, the kids.

Please, both of you inside.

Mommy's having a bit of a turn.

I wouldn't touch your pussy, Fiona.

Don't know where it's been.

First, she's fucking around behind your back, and now this.

What embarrassment of a wife you have, John.

Fuck you.

Fuck!

Oh, Tommy, no!

Let go, Tommy!

Oh, will your soul be ready for the mansions bright?

And be washed in the blood of the Lamb?
