I hear we have a VIP victim.

High Court judge.
That's right.

Feargal McCartney.
Ryan was able to ID him.

So someone pushed him
onto the rocks?

That's what we're thinking.

We have a witness who saw the judge
arguing with someone over there.

And then a few minutes later,

the same witness saw the judge
face down on the rocks.

This is where they found the judge.

Did we get a description
of the person

he was having an argument with?

Only that they were wearing
dark clothing.

The witness was some distance away.

Ryan's been having a look round.

Any joy, pal?

Nah. I've walked the whole way
around the path -

completely deserted.

What was the nature
of this argument?

Er...

Shouting, pushing, shoving.

Don't tell me - the witness couldn't
hear what they were shouting about?

No, too far away.

Someone assaults a High Court judge,
I mean, this is serious, right?

It's definitely a worry.

Look, I've already spoken to
my line manager in CID Belfast -

wants me to head up
the investigation.

I reckon we start with next of kin.

Mrs McCartney?

Hello. I'm Detective Constable
Luke Jackson.

Er, this is my colleague,
Police Constable Donal Gallagher.

Is everything OK?

Mum, what's going on?

I'm sorry to tell you both
there's been an incident.

Your husband was found
on Devine Rocks half an hour ago.

He's been taken to hospital.

OK?

How... How is he?

Look, your dad's condition
is quite serious.

Erm, we can drive you over
to the hospital if you'd like.

Thanks, but that won't be necessary.

Craig, love,
would you grab my bag and my phone?

They're on the kitchen island.

How did it happen?
We don't know that yet.

What we do need to know is
how your husband got to the rocks?

Well, his car isn't here.

Are you OK, Mum?

Er... It's a bit of a shock.

Are you sure we can't drive you?

I'll be fine.

Shona, your husband wasn't wearing
any shoes or socks

when he was found.

That's the sort of thing Dad does.

He can be a bit crazy.

When was the last time
you two saw Feargal?

This morning.
I got up early.

Feargal was still fast asleep.

Your dad must have gone out when we
were having breakfast on the patio.

It's at the back of the house.

Did either of you two go out
at any point this morning?

No. We've been here the whole time.

Do you think this has got
anything to do

with the organised crime trial
that Feargal's been presiding over?

Why would you ask that?

Feargal hasn't said anything,

but I think he's received
a couple of threats.

I have some concerns
about Constable Gallagher.

I think he's in a relationship
with Sasha Cookson.

I saw them together, on the beach.

Well, so what?

Sasha kissed you the other night.

Does that mean she's
in a relationship with you too?

No. Of course not.

I nipped that in the bud straight
away and then I reported it to you.

But Sasha is awaiting trial.

And if Donal has crossed the line
with her,

it's totally against regulations.

Well, you're his line manager.
What do you want to do?

I think I should talk to him.

OK.

But before you do that,

don't you think you should be
100% sure of the facts?

Yeah.

Mr McCarthy not in yet?

True his shift doesn't start
until 10.00.

I thought you'd know that.

How on earth would I know that?

Maybe something about
you being his girlfriend?

I don't think
I am his girlfriend any more.

What makes you think that?

Last night, I took it upon myself
to tell him I didn't like his poems.

You did what?

I mean, they are terrible,

but I can't believe you actually
said that out loud.

Ach, come on.
They're not that bad.

So how did Seamie react, hmm?

Well, he just went very quiet and
got on with serving the customers.

SCOFFS: Sounds like you cut the man
to the quick.

Oh, no, what have I done?!

DOOR OPENS

Good morning, Mr McCarthy.

How are you this morning?

I, dear lady,
am on top of the world.

How about you?

I... Er, yeah, grand, thanks.

I thought I'd get on sorting out
that cellar.

Wee surprise for Nicole
when she gets back.

Nice one, Seamie.
She'll appreciate that.

He doesn't really look cut
to the quick, does he?

No. Seems quite chipper to me.

Yeah. He does seem to have
taken it on the chin.

Can we have a chat?

I've got a lot on.

The Chief Constable's office
are really nervy

about this assault on the judge.

They're worried the Musgrave gang
might be behind it.

Yeah, I'm praying they're not.

Luke...

Please.

Talk to me.
About what?

The fact that I caught you kissing
Clint Devine-Dunwoody?

Yes!

Honestly, love,
I've no idea what come over me.

Yeah, we will talk.

Only when I'm ready.

So quiet here without Nicole,
isn't it?

Do you know how long
she'll be away for?

A few days.

She wants Callum to bond
with his son.

You must miss her?

Yeah, course I do.

SCOFFS: You could sound like
you mean it.

Can you keep a secret?

Yes.

I can!

Last night...

..I kissed Eve Dunlop.

The police officer Eve Dunlop?

How many other Eve Dunlops
do you know?

Lois's daughter?

WHISPERS: Keep your voice down!

Yes! Lois's daughter.

Did you, you know,
do more than a kiss?

No! Luke walked in and caught us.

You're joking.

And was he really mad?
Did he thump you?

No.

He just took her by the hand
and walked off.

And if he didn't come in,
would you have done more?

Of course not!

It was just a kiss.
We were just talking.

I've never really talked
to Eve before.

Next thing I knew it, we...

All I ever do is mess up,
let Nicole down.

So, you kissed someone else?

That seems pretty messed up
to me, Clint.

I know.

I feel so guilty.

DOOR OPENS

It's not me you should be talking to
about this.

I know, I need to tell Nicole.

Tell Nicole what?

Nicole! You're back!

Surprise! I just couldn't keep away!
I missed you so much!

Hi, Nicole.
Hello, Brandi, love.

Now, what is it you wanted
to tell me?

That...

Lois... Lois has told Seamie
that she doesn't like his poems.

Ach, is that all?
I tell him that all the time.

He looked a bit different
this morning.

When they found the judge,
he was in his bare feet.

Who leaves the house
with no shoes on?

I know. Does that mean he was taken
from his home against his will?

It's possible.
MOBILE RINGS

Sounds like something
an organised crime gang would do.

Yeah, but it's not the usual MO
of the Musgrove Gang.

Feels random, messy.

PHONE RINGS

Hello, Port Devine Police.

Hello, Dr Cookson.

I'm very sorry that happened to you.
Can you give me the registration?

That sounds like a vehicle
we've been keen to locate.

The judge's car.
Are we attending?

Yeah, definitely.

We'll be right there.

Thank you for your call,
Dr Cookson. Goodbye.

The judge's car -

someone drove it into
Sasha Cookson's garden wall.

Let's go.

Here. I'm pretty sure that
Sasha phoned his mobile first.

I saw him reject the call.

Do you know that for a fact, do you,
that it was Sasha?

I missed you!
I missed you too.

Where's the wee man? Is he upstairs?

Baby Barry is still in Belfast.

He's what?

We promised Callum some days
with his son.

The only difference is,
is that I'm here and not there.

And you didn't think to ring me,
consult me?

I wanted it to be a surprise!

I reckon it's time you and I
had some "us time",

get back to being Nicole and Clint

and not just wee Barry's
mummy and daddy.

But I love being his daddy!

And I love being his mummy,
but we need to keep the flame alive.

Why don't you and me
just pop upstairs?

I'd love to,
but Seamie's in the cellar,

the lunchtime rush is about to start

and we can't leave Brandi
to cope on her own.

OK.

But once the rush has died down...

SIREN WAILS

The key's still in the ignition?

Does that mean the car
wasn't stolen?

Well, if it wasn't stolen,
then presumably Feargal was driving.

What, in his bare feet?

So he's crashed his car and he's
headed that way towards the sea,

where he's had a row with someone
and they pushed him on the rocks.

Have you seen the state of my wall?
Morning, Doctor.

Sasha will be fine.

Have you not heard?
I'm getting struck off.

So, when did this happen?

I think it was
while I was in the shower.

I mean, I didn't hear a thing.

And when was that?

An hour ago? An hour and a half?

PHONE RINGS

That's Belfast.
Excuse me. I need to take this.

DC Jackson.

I've missed you.

I've missed you too.

I made a few phone calls
after you left.

Turns out there's
a receptionist's job

going at the Physio Practice,
in Ballymountain.

It's a bit of a step down
from being GP.

But it's a start.

It's the beginning
of your fight back.

I don't know
if I'll be able to do it, though.

It's two buses there,
two buses back.

That'll take forever.
You need a car.

What, you live out here
without a car?

I can't afford a car.

What about Jimmy Sharkey
down the road?

Hasn't he got something cheap?

He does. And he's going to give it
to me for four grand.

But I have to give him cash.

Doesn't sound too bad to me.

Yeah, the only problem is,
I'm still paying off my old car.

You know, the one that got torched.

It turns out my temporary insurance
run out.

Yeah, that's bad luck.

I think I've got something.

Oh, yeah?

This morning, a motorist called in
to report some dangerous driving.

The description of the vehicle
that was speeding

matches Feargal McCartney's car.

So Feargal was driving dangerously.

I mean, it's not a massive shock,
seeing as he crashed into a wall.

There's more.

I checked the CCTV footage
along the route.

I think Feargal was being followed.

There he is - the working man!

That's me.

And that's me done for the day.

Er, do you fancy a wee dander down
by the water, when you get a break?

Can I let you know how I'm fixed?

Er, yes. Of course.

Here.

What did that one want?

Pure orange.

No, I don't mean that. I meant,
"What is she doing in here?"

She better not have come in here
to cause any trouble.

What is she doing here?

Sorry, who's this woman?
What has she done?

Her name is Heidi Holmes.

And it was her son shot our Ross.

And then she tried to convince
Chloe's boyfriend to take the blame.

You're joking?!

She looks dead normal to me, like.

I still can't believe
she's out on bail.

Do you want me to get Clint
to throw her out?

No, not on my account.

I wouldn't give that woman
the satisfaction.

Any news on the judge?

Er, still in surgery.

Am I going to be here all day?

Yes, until Feargal's able to talk.

But I am here to give you
half an hour break, so away you go.

Ah, I suppose that's better
than nothing.

You're welcome.

Ryan! Sorry, just before you go...

..can you answer me something?

Yeah.

Is Donal in a relationship
with Sasha Cookson?

Of course not.

KNOCK ON DOOR
Come in.

Look, Donal's managed to find
the reg of the car

that was following the judge.

It belongs to Feargal's wife Shona.

The same Shona who told you
she was at home all morning?

Exactly. So either someone else
was driving the car or...

Or she's lying.

At least, if it is Shona,

we're dealing with a domestic
dispute and not organised crime.

Yeah, well, the McCartneys
are high-profile members

of this community and I don't want
to tread on anyone's toes.

What do you think we should do?

What we'd do to anybody else -
arrest her.

I don't want these people thinking
they're above the law.

Look, I'll let you know
how we get on.

I didn't even get a chance
to finish my bap.

Luke just called.

We need to arrest Shona.

Mrs McCartney...

..can you clarify something for me?
Of course.

You didn't take your car out
earlier this morning? No.

And you had your keys on you
the whole time?

That's right.

Well, I'm afraid I'm going to
have to place you under arrest.

What? Shona McCartney,

I am arresting you on suspicion
of grievous bodily harm.

You do not have to say anything,
but it may harm your defence

if you do not mention,
when questioned,

something you later
rely on in court.

Anything you do say may be
given in evidence.

What's going on?

Craig, love, it's going to be fine.

I want to speak to my solicitor.
That's fine.

Should I go with her?

Why don't you stay here, mate?

Your dad will want to see a friendly
face when he gets out of surgery.

But my mother didn't do this.

Then she's nothing to worry about.

I have had a deputation
from your children.

They want to know what's going on
between you and Luke.

Hello to you too, Mother.

Well, before I answer that,
answer me this.

You clean for Feargal McCartney
and family, don't you?

Among many others.

Why do you ask?

I'm not telling you that.

What do you make of them?

He's a lovely man.

Her, I haven't taken to so much.

Yesterday morning,
she sent me packing.

Why was that?

Hmm? I'd just let myself in
and Shona appeared

and said I wasn't needed.

Mind you, she still paid me.

Was Feargal about at all?
No.

Just Shona
and that big lad of theirs, Craig.

But Feargal was in the house.

How do you know that?

Terrible banging and thumping
coming from upstairs.

Shouting too.

Shona said it was Feargal doing DIY.

What time was this at?
Oh, early.

8am.

My suspicion is she didn't want me
to see all her empty wine bottles.

Big drinker, is she?

You know me, I abhor gossip,
but I was at the Community Centre

last Tuesday evening,
and about seven o'clock,

I saw Shona going in.

Now, that is when Alcoholics
Anonymous has their meeting.

What's she up to?

Oh, swanning about the town
like butter wouldn't melt.

She was in The Commodore earlier.

Lot of bling on her.
Mm-hm.

You and Luke, what's the beef,
as our Ross would say?

I kissed another man.

Luke came in, caught us.

Another man? Who?

Clint Devine-Dunwoody.

Sorry, what?
I know.

A moment of madness.

Him and Nicole are having problems.
And...

Well, Luke's been working
on that case with his ex.

That Aine woman?
Yeah.

You warned me
to look after my marriage.

I wish I'd listened to you now.

I only meant you should learn
from my mistakes.

You and Luke, you love each other.

And your children get on
like a house on fire.

If you'd asked me a couple of days
ago, I would have said that

you were the perfect family.

There's no such thing.

Sure, I know that.

But you four come close.

You fight for him, Eve.

You fight for all of it.

What did Shona have to say
for herself?

Nothing. We haven't been able
to interview her yet.

We're still waiting on her solicitor
to get here.

Annoying.

Donal's discovered
something interesting.

I spoke to Shona's bank.

Turns out she made a big
cash withdrawal this morning.

How much?

£500, from the cashpoint
on Ship Street, at 9.32.

That's about the time
Feargal fell onto the rocks.

Exactly. So unless Shona McCartney
can be in two places at once,

there's no way it was her
who pushed her husband.

I'm pretty sure that cashpoint
on Ship Street has a camera in it.

Donal's miles ahead of you.

I've already requested the footage.

Oh? That's really good work.
Very impressive.

This is the CCTV from the cashpoint.

And that's clearly Shona McCartney.

So she has been lying to us.

She's got someone with her.

Who? Her son?

No.

Looks like a woman to me,
from the jewellery.

Is Shona handing her the cash?

She certainly is.

I know exactly who that is.

Who?

Our friendly neighbourhood
loan shark, Heidi Holmes.

She was wearing that cuff
when I saw her earlier on.

So what's someone like Heidi doing
with a High Court judge's wife?

And why is Shona
handing her £500?

I have no idea.

Why don't we ask her?

Heidi's due here in 15 minutes
to sign for her bail.

Why don't yous two have a wee word
with her?

Tell me, Heidi, have you been
lending money again?

Honestly, Marlene,
you're like a stuck record.

How many times?

I...am...not...a...loan shark.

Do I have to do this?

No. You don't.

You're not under arrest.

You're answering our questions
in an entirely voluntary capacity.

Well, lay off
the loan shark stuff, Sergeant.

Well, we were just wondering
why Shona McCartney gave you

£500 in cash this morning.

I mean, obviously she's not
paying back a loan, seeing as...

..you're not a loan shark.

Look, she forced me to take
that money.

Forced you?

She assumed
I was going to talk to you lot,

tell you what I'd seen.

But I said to her,
"I'm not a grass."

So, what did you see?

Your woman Shona's husband?

He crashed into a wall.

You witnessed that?

Yeah.

I was just passing by like.

Passing by Sasha Cookson's house?

But sure,
she lives in the middle of nowhere?

I was out for a wee dander.

Look, what happened?

He hit the wall.

Then Shona pulled up
a few moments later.

The judge got out of the car,
went running off towards the sea.

Then their wee lad
went chasing after him.

And that was it?

Yeah.

The judge was driving like a maniac.

And Shona offered you the money?

Insisted.

Made me get into her car
and drove to the cashpoint.

Wouldn't take no for an answer.

You do realise that failing
to report an accident

is a criminal offence?

SHE CHUCKLES

Typical.

Take it out on me.

I'm not the one who crashed a car
and ran away.

When I spoke to you earlier,

you told me you'd been at home
all morning.

Is that the truth?

Yes.

Then how do you explain a witness

who saw you following your father
towards the sea?

That wasn't me.
That was my mum.

Is that what she told you to say?

The thing is, Craig, we have CCTV
of your mum at the cashpoint.

We know it wasn't her who chased
after your dad. We know it was you.

For your own sake, Craig,
start telling us the truth.

I ran after Dad.

We fought.

I didn't mean to push him
off the edge.

But I did.

What were you arguing about?

No comment.
Come on, Craig!

You've already got the hard part
over with.

Yous can ask all you like,
but I'm not going to tell you.

So, you know the...
SHE CLEARS THROAT

..us time I was talking about?

Aye.
Well, the bar is quiet.

So, why don't you and me
go upstairs and we can play

"Lady of the Manor
and the rough gamekeeper"?

I'm not sure
that's such a good idea.

But it's one of your favourites!

I know, it's just...

DOOR OPENS

Er... The delivery guy's here
with the delivery of soft drinks.

It's going to take me ages
to put it away.

I'll be right with you, mucker!

Another time, babe, yeah?

Hey!

Hi.

I really wish I could kiss you.

You're the one
worried about losing your job.

Yeah.

For me?

Open it.

Don't even think about saying
you can't accept it.

Is this...?
That's right.

Four grand in cash.

Now go and get that car.

I can't take this.

You CAN take it.

You can take it, you can
get that job, earn some money,

and if you really want to,
you can pay me back.

Are you sure?

I... I got a pay-out,

when I got injured playing rugby.

I can afford it.

Let me do this for you.

Let's process Shona,
release her on bail.

Boss?
Cheers, mate.

That was one of my colleagues
from Belfast.

I called him earlier to see if
he had any intel on Shona McCartney.

He just got back to me.
And?

Well, Shona was fined for speeding
two months ago.

But the officer who attended

suspected that her and her husband
had switched seats.

He was sure it was Feargal who was
driving and that he was drunk.

My mother thinks it's Shona
who's the drinker.

She was at the Community Centre
last Tuesday night -

saw Shona coming out
of the Alcoholics Anonymous meeting.

Mum says when she went round
to theirs yesterday morning,

Shona sent her packing.

Why? Said she didn't need her.

Sounds like the place was bedlam -

Feargal upstairs doing DIY
at eight o'clock in the morning.

OK, so the Tuesday night meeting
at the Community Centre isn't AA.

It's Al-Anon -

family and friends of alcoholics.

So it is Feargal who has
the drink problem, not Shona?

I'll tell you a question
we haven't answered.

Why would a High Court judge
run out of his house

first thing in the morning
with no shoes on?

It's a good point.

Which has got me wondering,

is the answer to
all of this inside that house?

I'll take the ground floor, yeah?

Yeah.

That's there to keep someone in.

Yeah, someone's given that
a kicking.

It wasn't DIY my mother heard,

it was the judge,
trying to attract attention.

I think Shona and Craig
locked him in here.

Wait, so, this morning, he escaped.

Why would they do that?

To stop him drinking?

Yeah, but that's...

That's extreme.

Yeah.

They must have been desperate.

Hiya, Ryan just phoned.

The judge is out of surgery,

so we should be able to
speak to him soon.

Please, Marlene. Can I see Feargal?

I'm sorry, Shona.

Not until we've taken a statement.

And when's that going to be?

As soon as the hepatologist
has checked him over.

You know about that?

We know that the liver specialist
was keen to see him.

Feargal's going to go crazy.

He's such a proud man.

He made me and Craig swear
we wouldn't tell anyone.

Does he need a liver transplant?

Yeah.

Feargal had to promise
he wouldn't drink for six months.

He was doing so well.

And when did he fall off the wagon?

Three days ago.

We thought... I thought,
if we could just stop him drinking,

the doctors would
never need to know.

He wouldn't have to go to the
back of the queue.

When we looked around your house,

we found indications that someone
had been held against their will.

We didn't know what else to do.

We were trying to save
Feargal's life.

I'm really sorry for what
you've gone through.

And the toll this is going
to take on Craig.

Craig didn't mean to hurt his dad.

He... He loves him so much.

We know that.

What's going to happen to him?
Is he going to go to prison?

Look, what happened at the rocks,
it's a very serious offence.

As is false imprisonment.

I don't care about me.

Well, we will inform
the Prosecution Service

of everything that has happened,

and they will decide what you
and Craig will be charged with.

But don't worry,

we will make them aware
of the mitigating circumstances.

We know you did what you
did out of love.

Dad was kicking
and screaming all last night.

It was horrible.

But this morning,
he got quiet.

So I went up to the room,
to check he was OK.

He sounded so sad.

Said he just wanted a shower
and a change of clothes.

I didn't see what harm it could do.

So you let him out of the room?

Yes. Just for a shower.

I could hear the shower running,
so I nipped downstairs.

Dad didn't even
take his clothes off.

The moment I was distracted,

he was straight out the front door
and into his car.

So, what happened at the rocks?

I was begging him
not to have another drink.

He kept getting in my face.

Saying it was his right
to kill himself if he wants to.

I lost my temper.

I grabbed him.

We fought.

I pushed him.

He was just lying there.

I didn't know what to do, so...

..I ran home.

To my mum.

Well, Feargal has agreed to book
himself into rehab,

and stay there until they're ready
to give him a transplant.

That's a result.

If he sticks to it.

Oh, I think he will.

He had a real fright today.

I wasn't sure you'd come.

Well, your...

Your text was very intriguing.

What is it you want
to talk to me about?

My terrible poems.

Your poems are not terrible!

We both know that's not true.

I couldn't get a single one
published -

and it wasn't
for the want of trying.

I like you, Lois.

A lot.

And if it means never
writing another poem...

Oh, goodness!
I don't... I don't want that!

I envy the fact that you're able
to...express yourself.

Me, I'm all buttoned up.

I used to be a man of few words,

until I started to write
the odd verse.

I'm...not used to letting go.

But you want to?

Donal.

Hiya, Ryan.

So...

I need to tell you.

I'm pretty sure the Sarge knows
about you and Sasha over there.

What?

How?

I've no idea,
but she asked me outright.

I mean, I denied it, obviously.

Thanks, pal.

Listen, take my advice.

Ditch the doc till her case
goes to trial, yeah?

I don't think it's a good idea,
us meeting here.

Why?

Ryan just told me that...

..Marlene is on to us.

How about we meet
in the Harbour Car Park? OK.

I can drive us back to your place,

and I'll go get us a takeaway.

I'll be 20 minutes.

Oh, I nearly forgot.

Erm, did you get your car?

He'd already sold it.

You're joking.

Yeah, it's not a problem,
he's going to find me another one.

Well, keep the cash until he does.

Thanks.

Ah! The very woman.

I'm in kind of a hurry, Marlene.

Oh, you going to meet
your boyfriend?

So, you do know. Mm-hm.

You're going to cost that lad
his career in the police service.

I don't want that. Honestly.

Then give him up.

I can't do that. Why?

Because I love him.

Please, Marlene.

Don't report Donal.

Sasha, I don't have any choice.

You sure you're not jealous?

What? Don't be so ridiculous.

What if I offered you a deal?

I need to get Heidi Holmes
off my back.

I owe her money, a lot of money.

Hold on.

Is that why she was round
at your place this morning?

Yeah.

She was threatening me.

I gave her four grand
this afternoon,

it didn't even touch the sides.

So, what's this deal?

Heidi is planning something big.

I will tell you what and where
and when, if you just back off

and leave me and Donal to it.

Thank you for the tip.

And I will certainly look
into whatever Heidi is planning -

but, if you think that means that
I'm going to stay quiet

about you and Donal...

Sasha, you're out of your mind.

Hello, you.

Hey.

You did sharp work
on the McCartney case.

Yeah, well, it helps to have
Miss Marple for a mother.

Tell me.

Did you kiss Clint because you think
I'm seeing Aine McCrory?

Yeah. Well, I'm not.

And I wouldn't.
I'm married to you.

Look, all this is totally
in your head, you know that?

I know that now.

Well, you need to sort
your head out, Eve.

Because if you don't,
I'm not hanging around.

What?

Look, not that I want that.
Cos I love you.

I love you too.

Where are you going?

Look, I need to sort something out.

I'll see you at home.

Clint.

A word.

You ever tell anyone you kissed
my wife, I'll knock your head off.

Listen, mate. My lips are sealed.

That'll make a refreshing change.

What was that all about?

He looked really angry.

Luke? Angry?

He was just checking
if I'm playing five-aside later.

Look, I can't do this any more.

He was angry because he caught me
kissing his wife.

He caught you doing what?!
