This programme contains some strong language

- Sorry, miss, who are you? - Amy Shannon. I live here.

- There's been a report of a domestic disturbance. - We've nothing to hide.

So she gave Amy the happily ever after

and put Stevie on the mainland ferry?

It was an impossible call.

Morag, do the Shannon sisters know

that you were involved in their case?

Did you set us up?!

I thought the stuff was on that boat.

So that means they still need to land the gear, right?

If it's not on the boat, they're going to know someone talked.

LOUD THUD

What did I tell you, son?

There is a couple of missing paper statements.

I will try and find them.

This is a police officer we're talking about.

Don't breathe a word of this to Billy.

That's how you lot operate, isn't it?

Something like this happens and you go looking for a scapegoat.

The one I saw in the dead woman's garden. It was her.

Seems there were some disturbing reports that

came from the children's homes where Stevie was placed.

I don't trust her, Amy.

We're a family, after all.

You, your mum and me.

DOOR OPENS

- I'm going to win this time. - No, you're not! - Yes, I am.

Snap!

I win.

THEY LAUGH

Stevie!

Mum! Mum! Mum!

Wake up, Mum!

Hello.

I'm Eadie Tulloch.

I'm a social worker.

I need to have a wee word with your mum. Is she here?

GASPS

SHE SIGHS

KNOCK ON DOOR

Will says he's working for you.

Last thing he needs is to get dragged into any more shit.

Wahey! And here he is.

You're up early.

I've got a wee favour to ask you.

Stuart, will you give us a minute, please?

Cheers.

FOOTSTEPS RECEDE

I don't think your mum likes me very much.

DOOR SHUTS IN DISTANCE

Stuart's my best pal

- and I've known him since I was seven. - Hmm.

Don't.

What do you want?

Well, we arrested a couple of couriers

who were bringing drugs in for the Callaghans.

Long story short...

..they've got a man here in Shetland who they're working with.

- And? - And I want you to get me the name.

How am I supposed to do that?

You work at the harbour. You see things.

I think you know exactly who can get me that name.

What if I don't want to?

Well, we'll just to have to call your parole officer, won't we?

In fact, shall we... Shall we do that now?

Do it.

Do it!

I'd rather go back inside than be your lackey

- for the rest of my life. - Right, you listen here.

I have been working on this case for more than six months

and I am this close to getting a result.

You get me that name, I'll drop your charge. How about that?

Hmm?

Call me when you've got something.

Give him plenty of water

and tell your mum no more bloody cake.

Call you later.

- Everything OK? - Er...

..Aidan was sick last night

and Luke can't seem to calm him down.

Well, I guess it's good that Luke's mum's there.

She can look after him.

So, I was thinking,

since it's just us, we should do something.

You know, we... Maybe we could go to the beach, or...

..I could go get stuff for a picnic.

- Don't you think we'd be better going to the police station? - Why?

To tell them about you being at Eadie Tulloch's house.

Stevie, this is why I stayed.

You asked me to help you.

Aye, but I didn't think we'd just stroll in and confess.

Well, it's better that you come forward with the truth

than them find out you lied.

Look, I'll come with you. OK?

W-We'll explain that you made a mistake

and we will just get it all sorted out.

Amy, it...doesn't work like that.

PHONE RINGS

Luke, I'm tr...

There's Calpol in the bag.

- I'm going to go to the shops. - What?

Er... Stevie!

Good morning, Stevie.

I'm afraid we're going to need you to come back down to the station.

Sorry, I-I don't have time.

Well, you're going to have to make time.

Or we could do it here, at your flat.

Right.

Long day, eh?

Oh, man.

- Decent prices today? - What?

I was looking for some work.

I wondered if maybe you could help me out.

I've got all the crew I need, son.

Er, it's not for fishing work.

It's for the other s-sort of work.

Callaghan sort of work?

Think you've got the wrong guy.

Well, m-maybe you know the right guy, though.

Like, can you point me in the right direction, or give me

- a phone number or something? - Move.

Chris Burnett is positive he saw Stevie

in Eadie Tulloch's garden on the day we think she was killed.

And then there's the taxi driver who picked up a woman

who looked like Stevie and drove her to Lunniswick.

And her motive is what? Revenge?

Well, essentially, yes.

Stevie blamed Eadie for putting her into care.

Because anyone that's been through the care system is a criminal?

- No! - That's... That's not what we're saying.

You just said she killed Eadie because Eadie put her into care.

It's a POTENTIAL motive.

I spent a year in care.

And overall, for me, it was a positive experience.

In fact, if it wasn't for the people who took care of me

and my family, I wouldn't be here today.

And we're very grateful that you are here.

But Stevie Shannon did NOT have a positive time in care.

Her case files prove that.

And if she did resent Eadie,

maybe she used that resentment to take it out on her.

Yeah, plus, Amy and Stevie's mum died after Eadie removed them

from their home, and they blame her for that.

Chris Burnett's statement won't stand up in court.

And just because Stevie took a taxi to Lunniswick

doesn't mean she killed Eadie.

Well, there's the unidentified print.

OK. And if they're a match to Stevie Shannon,

you're on your way to building a case.

But she's under no obligation to give you her prints!

Frankly, given what you have, I...

I'm so surprised you even brought her in.

He's right.

We don't have enough.

- But if we can get her prints... - Och, there's no way she's going to

let us take her fingerprints.

Be lucky if we even get her to talk in there.

So what are we going to do?

I've got an idea.

DOOR OPENS

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Right. OK.

CLICK

OK, er, just so you know, Stevie,

we have a witness who gave a fairly accurate description

of the person that was in Eadie Tulloch's garden.

Now we...we can't say for sure,

but we think that person...

..might've been Amy.

We know this is difficult.

Amy's your sister, but we wanted to ask

whether you might be able to give us some insight into her state of mind.

What?

Well, because you've been around her recently.

Yeah, and you said yourself

Amy blames Eadie over the death of your mum.

No, I didn't.

Oh, er, I'm...

I'm pretty sure you did.

Hang on.

Yeah, you said,

"Amy's never come to terms with what happened to Mum.

"She wants someone to blame, and Eadie's convenient."

I mean, Amy had issues with Eadie, didn't she?

She was suing social services.

Maybe the case was taking too long.

- She got frustrated... - Have yous two lost your minds?

You think that Amy killed Eadie Tulloch?

It's a pretty compelling motive.

And given recent events, I mean, it's pretty clear

- that something's not right in that flat. - Mm.

What events?

Someone called the police to report that Aidan was in danger.

Yeah, it was just a prank call.

How can you be so sure?

Because Amy isn't violent. I know her.

But DO you?

I mean, you two only got back in touch, what was it, a year ago?

That's practically strangers.

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

You've got no idea what me and Amy are.

You'd never understand.

And see this, what you two are trying to do, get between us?

They've been trying to do it for years - the social work,

the courts, the police.

You've all tried to keep us apart. So it won't work.

See the shit that we went through when we were kids?

It bonds you for life.

Sounds to me like you didn't get anything from her.

- She said she knew it was a prank call. - What?

Alex, the domestic at Amy Shannon's the other night,

do we know who reported it?

Still saying it's anonymous.

Yeah, but there'll be a recording of it somewhere, yeah?

- Do you think I could get a copy of it? - Mm-hm. - Now. - Right. - Today.

- Thank you. - I'm on it.

You think Stevie made that call?

Well, maybe, yes.

Why on earth would she report her own sister to social services?

Well, because Stevie thinks the whole world is trying to

get in between her and her sister.

And maybe - maybe - that includes Luke and Aidan too.

PHONE RINGS

Yes, Alan, what?

Sorry to catch you at work

but I think you're going to need to come up to the kirk.

Erm, this might be important.

- OK. - All right.

DOOR CLOSES

I've been through everything.

Twice.

I still can't explain where the Tulloch money came from.

Unless...

..we entertain the idea that Robert Tulloch was taking bribes.

What about the missing bank statement? Did you find it?

No. I contacted the bank

and they're sending a copy over to you today.

But even without that, there's a clear pattern of what was going on.

Look, maybe we should talk to Billy.

He worked wi Robert.

Might be able to throw some light on all of this.

I would like us to have a little more evidence

before we go accusing his dead friend of corruption.

So how do we move forward?

Ray Powell.

Gina Powell's husband.

Ray was one of Robert Tulloch's old cases.

Gina doesn't trust the police.

Said they ruined her family.

Maybe she knows something about Robert.

- I can pull that case file. - Yeah, OK, great.

And, Sandy...

..we keep this between you and me for now, OK?

Of course.

An assault.

A violent, unprovoked assault on a defenceless boy.

Him a grown man, too.

And Tom Jameson did this to you?

Why did he do it?

What does that matter?

Fact is, he committed a crime.

You need to get over there and arrest the man.

- Margaret, do you think...? - All due respect, minister,

I'm talking with your sister now.

Ethan.

Was this about Jess being pregnant?

Yeah?

And her dad not happy about it?

He banned me from seeing her.

You were with her yesterday, though.

Are you trying to justify this?

I'm just trying to understand it.

Well, understand this.

None of us are happy about this baby.

Ethan's too young to be a parent.

We tried to speak to them.

Tried to persuade them that Jess should...

..make an arrangement, but they wouldn't hear of it.

Isobel, of course, digging her heels in.

I've never met a woman so keen to become a gran.

So, here we are.

Two kids, their whole lives ruined.

Jess wants to get the baby adopted.

You never told me that.

She was talking to Eadie about it.

Eadie Tulloch?

Eadie said she'd look into it.

That was before she, you know, died.

Who else knew about this?

What's your name?

Will Louden.

Give me your phone.

- What? - Your phone.

Go here.

Say Jacob sent you.

Cute kid, by the way.

Gina.

Can I have a word?

I've been going over your late husband's case file.

- Why? - We've had cause to look into Robert Tulloch's time in the police.

Robert arrested Ray in connection with the robbery

of a goods container at Lerwick docks.

According to the transcript of his first interview, Ray said

that he was with you and David at the time that the robbery happened.

So?

So there's no mention of the alibi in his second interview.

He just submitted a signed confession.

I don't understand the problem.

Was Ray with you that night?

Well, it doesn't matter now.

Gina, if he didn't do it, he shouldn't have gone to prison.

Back then, all this here, Lunniswick...

This was Robert's kingdom.

Him and Eadie's.

But bloody Ray couldn't resist it.

Pulling off jobs right under Robert's nose?

Way too big a temptation.

He made an enemy of Robert Tulloch.

Sorry, are you telling me that Robert framed Ray

because Ray was...

..goading him?

You don't get it.

I'm telling you that Ray wasn't with us the night of the robbery,

just like he said in his confession.

SHE SIGHS

A fish supper, please.

I'm Will.

Sheila.

Er, Jacob sent me.

Jacob from the harbour?

Does Jacob want chips?

No, he told me to come here to see about some work.

You want to work here?

No.

Maybe I could speak to the boss?

I'm the boss.

Salt and vinegar?

Er, no. No.

That's 15.

Thank you.

TILL BEEPS AND OPENS

Thanks.

- The hell's that about? - I don't know.

I'm going to take my break, Sheila.

I'll be back in an hour.

- Make sure you are. - Aye, all right.

Stevie, where the hell have you bee...?

Hi, Amy. How are you doing?

It's just a routine follow-up.

Routine? You're here because you think I'm an unfit mother.

Nobody thinks that, Amy.

And it's for your protection, too.

It means if I get any more of these anonymous reports,

we can take them with a pinch of salt.

- Where is the wee one anyway? - He's with Luke.

At Luke's mum's. The whole family's up there this week.

Oh. You didn't want to go?

I was planning to, but I had to stay here.

Stevie needed me for...

And how is Stevie?

Um, aye, she's, er, she's fine.

I admit I was in the wrong.

I...I should never have raised my hands to Ethan.

You make it sound like you gave him a clip around the ear.

Right.

- THIS is what Ethan's mum woke up to the morning. - Jesus.

I'm sorry. I...

That was...

- Yesterday was a tough day. - Was it?

It's not an excuse.

I'm just saying, that isn't something that I would normally do.

Ethan says you've banned him from seeing Jess.

Is that right? That your thing, is it?

Deciding who your daughter gets to spend time with?

No. I never said they couldn't speak to each other ever again.

This baby has caused a lot of grief between us and Ethan's family

so I thought it best if they kept away from each other

until after the baby was born.

Yeah, Margaret Stone doesn't seem too happy about Jess being pregnant.

Margaret's never happy.

What about you and Isobel?

How do you feel about Jess becoming a mum?

It's what she wants, so we're behind her.

Is it?

Is it what she wants?

Did you know that Jess had gone to Eadie Tulloch

about putting the baby up for adoption?

No, I didn't.

You don't seem to surprised, by it.

Jess is a law unto herself. She stopped surprising me years ago.

Did Eadie speak to you about it?

- No. - No? - We barely spoke.

Apart for a grudging hello now and again.

- You never discussed it with her? - No.

So why do you think Jess went to Eadie?

Like I say, Jess is unpredictable.

So how do you feel about it now?

Knowing what they were planning?

Look, you brought me in here because of what happened with Ethan, right?

Now, I've admitted to the assault,

so let me just sign whatever it is I have to sign so that I can go.

I need to get home.

Ma'am.

Is Ethan OK?

Well, he's got a sore face, but I think he'll live.

Oh, poor kid.

Still, at least now we know Tom Jameson's got a violent streak.

Well...yes and no.

I mean, to be fair, the man's had a tough time.

He's lost his job, he's got health issues

and now his daughter has gone and got herself up the duff.

That doesn't excuse beating up a kid.

No.

It does not.

Alex, could we charge Tom Jameson and bail him for now

- and get someone to drop him off back home? - Sure.

Anyway, we're going to have to find some time to talk to Jess,

see when she last saw Eadie.

According to Ethan, Jess went to see Eadie couple of weeks ago

about finding a family to adopt the baby.

Well, it makes sense, doesn't it?

ALERT CHIMES

- in family services. - Do the Jamesons know

that Jess is giving up the baby?

Tom Jameson didn't. What's this?

Oh. Er, I've got to...

I've got to go and see Louden.

I'll catch you later.

- OK. - Can I get you some tea?

No, I'm good.

Everything all right?

Actually...

..I went out to Lunniswick,

to see Gina Powell.

I think we need to have a chat about Robert Tulloch.

Robert? Why?

Some things have come to light, Billy.

Things I can't explain.

Y'know what? It'll wait.

Thanks.

SHE CHUCKLES

Aw.

He's a handsome boy.

- DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES - Amy, it's me.

Good to see you, Stevie.

Morag's just checking in after the police visit the other day.

Nothing to worry about.

Like I said to Amy, just a...

..an informal visit to see how everybody's doing.

You have to give notice.

Well, that's not strictly true.

I'm pretty sure you can't show up unannounced, like.

Stevie, will you leave it?

Amy, listen to me.

- There's rules and procedures that she's not following. - It's fine, OK?

It's not fine.

This is my family.

Now, go in the other room and let me and Morag finish up here.

SHE SIGHS

SHE PANTS

I'm...I'm sorry about that.

Och, no, you're fine.

She's just looking out for you.

Like a sister should.

Er, look, I'll need to drop by again when Aidan's here,

but as far as I'm concerned, there's nothing to worry about.

Except, what you have with Aidan and Luke,

that's what's important.

Don't let anyone get in the way of that, Amy,

no matter who they are.

FOOTSTEPS RECEDE, DOOR OPENS

What do you mean you can't do it?

It's only been a morning.

It's just too dangerous.

It's just a name, Louden.

- I think they're on to me. - Who?!

The people who work for the Callaghans.

Right, and what makes you think that?

I got a tip-off this morning and it turned out to be bullshit.

- How do you know? - Because why would they piss me about like that?

PHONE CHIMES

- that I'm working for you lot? - I think you're being paranoid, mate.

I'd rather be paranoid than dead.

SHE SIGHS

I'm done. Sorry, I'm done.

All right.

Hey.

What if I did something for you?

- Like what? - I don't fucking know - what do you want?

- I want to see my daughter. - What?

- Erin. I want more access to Erin. - Oh, come on. - Please.

Louden, you know I can't do something like that.

Oh, Jeez. Oh!

All right.

All right. OK.

I'll make a phone call.

It's me.

I've found the grass.

Well, she said she had no concerns, so maybe

that'll be the end of it.

Luke, I'll call you back.

What are you doing?

I, er, I think it's better if I go.

What? Go? G-Go where?

Back to Aberdeen.

Why?

I'm obviously in the way.

That's not true.

Amy, I heard you at the door.

You and McCabe, talking about getting rid of me.

I mean, she made it perfectly clear that

I shouldn't be around you or Aidan.

That's not what she meant.

It's exactly what she meant.

Look she was just talking, OK, and it's not...

It's not like I agree with her.

You didn't disagree with her, though.

Didn't stand up for me, did you?

Stevie. Stop.

I'm sorry. OK? I...

Just this stuff with Aidan, it's freaking me out.

I don't want you to leave.

I-I need you.

Especially now.

Look, erm, why don't we...

Why don't we do that picnic?

Here. Just you and me.

Be like the old days, back in the house.

Except this time we'll actually have something to eat.

Tell you what - why don't you, er...

You take the car,

go to the supermarket and get us some food.

Nothing healthy, mind, just junk food and wine.

I'll get everything sorted here.

Please.

Stay?

Just at least for one more night.

Fine.

You were right.

I'm always right.

But remind me again what it is I'm right about this time.

Alex got the recording of the 999 report made about Amy Shannon.

Stevie Shannon made the call.

- So she did report her own sister. - Let's go.

- What? What, now? - Well, if she made a malicious report,

we have grounds to arrest her.

And then we'll have her prints.

Ah!

Your sister's been lying to us.

About what?

About being in Eadie Tulloch's house...

..on the day she died.

OK. She...

She went up there, yes,

but she didn't see or talk to Eadie.

So you knew about this?

We were going to come by the station today to explain.

She's already been at the station.

Yeah. This morning!

And do you know what,

she never said anything about being at Eadie Tulloch's house.

OK, well, like I said, she's worried about how it looks.

But even if she went up there, she didn't do anything to Eadie.

How can you be sure?

Because she would've told me.

Did she tell you about the phone call?

What phone call?

Listen, the couple are always arguing.

And there's a wee boy in there. I'm just...

I'm worried that he might be in danger.

LINE CLICKS

Are you OK?

Why would she do that?

PHONE RINGS

Now, if that's Stevie, can I talk to her?

I didn't know if you wanted red or white,

so I just got both.

How could you, Stevie?

After everything I've done for you.

Aidan's my son. Your nephew.

And you told them he was in danger.

No, they're...they're lying. That's not true...

I heard the recording, Stevie!

- Let me talk to her. - That's not me.

They've made it up. They're...

They're faking it so it sounds like me.

No, no, no. No, there is no "they".

There is no big conspiracy working against us.

There is only you.

And I'm...

And I'm done with you.

BEEP

Amy, I think you should come with us to the station.

Fuck!

If Jess and Ethan hadn't called the ambulance,

who knows what would have happened.

DOOR OPENS

..I do owe you my life, Jess.

DOOR CLOSES

What happened?

Just took my prints, asked me a few questions.

Did they charge you?

So you're going to go to prison?

Serves him right if he does go.

- Jess! - What?

He attacked Ethan.

And I said I was sorry.

So? That doesn't change anything.

I never thought you were capable of doing something like that.

We've all got our secrets.

What?

Jess.

I'll deal with her.

Make yourself comfortable.

I'll get you some water.

Thanks.

PHONE RINGS

What is it?

You don't know them like I do.

What are you talking about?

You don't know how they work.

- They twist things. - Stevie...

..YOU made that call.

YOU sent the police to my house.

I know.

And I'm sorry.

But don't worry -

er, I'm going to put everything right.

I promise. Er..

I'm going to make sure she can't take Aidan off you.

VOLUME INCREASES

Amy!

Amy!

ANGUISHED WAIL

SHE EXHALES SHARPLY

# I fade away. #

And did she say where she was?

No, but she... She sounded...weird.

- Like she was going to do something. - Like what?

She said she was going to make sure she didn't take Aidan away.

She? Sorry, who is she?

Stevie was there this afternoon when she came round to visit.

When WHO came round to visit, Amy?

Oh, Christ.

- Billy? - Morag? Where are you?

I'm back at the house.

I need you to get in the car and come into the station.

What?

Just do as I ask, Morag.

Morag?

Yeah, no, no, I'm here. I'm here. Look, what's going on?

We can't find Stevie Shannon.

THUD

We think she might head to the house...

I think she's here.

Morag?

Stevie?

Do you want to come out, pet?

If you want to talk...

..I'm here.

Stevie?

OK, Sandy, find out if there's anyone near the house

and get them over there.

On it.

No, no, no, no, no, Billy. You need to stay here.

To hell with that!

I know you had it tough, Stevie, and I'm sorry.

You got a bad deal and you've every right to blame us, but...

..we were just doing our jobs.

You took her from me.

You stole her.

You and Tulloch.

We had to, Stevie.

Your mum was a good person, but she couldn't cope.

My mum. You think I give a shit about that useless junkie?

You took Amy from me.

I remember everything.

You and Tulloch took us outside.

I saw the looks between yous.

I remember you grabbing me...

..while she threw Amy in the car.

I can still smell your perfume.

You're wearing it now, aren't you?

It fucking stinks.

You...

You took my sister from me.

- You've still got Amy. - It is not the same!

She is different.

She... She... She has Aidan and Luke

and her work and a flat with fucking tea towels!

I want the old Amy.

You know, just me and her,

nobody else, just like it was in the flat!

You can't have that.

I know.

- You can't have it, Stevie. - I said...

..I know!

You can't...

You can't have it, pet.

You can't...

SHE WEEPS

You can't have it.

I'm sorry.

SHE SOBS

I'm so sorry.

Morag?

Morag.

I don't want her charged, Sandy.

As far as I'm concerned, there was no crime here.

Did she say anything, Morag?

About what?

Eadie.

No. No. She was...speaking about the day we took her and Amy away...

Maybe me and Eadie, we should've handled things better.

You did what you could, love.

Yeah.

And a fat lot of good that did!

DOOR SLAMS

She's had a shock.

Aye.

Her and me both.

I'll leave you to it.

Let me know if you need anything.

Sandy? Earlier, Tosh was asking about Robert.

Any idea why?

No.

But I'm sure it'll keep.

Just take care of Morag.

PHONE RINGS

Hello?

Is that Louden?

- Yeah. - I hear you're looking for a job.

Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, hey.

How did you get this number, though?

Look, if you're not interested...

Well, no, I am. Yeah - 100%.

Good. Cos I might have something on tonight.

Nothing too big, but I need an extra pair of hands.

Yeah, OK.

Right.

Well, keep your phone on you,

and I'll let you know when and where later.

Er, I didn't get your name, though.

I can do the proper introductions tonight.

I'll be in touch.

She was strangled,

tied to a post...

..and left to rot in her garden.

Eadie Tulloch.

Your social worker.

And then there's Morag McCabe.

Another social worker.

Who you attacked

in her own home this afternoon.

I didn't do this.

But you WERE in Lunniswick.

You WERE in Eadie Tulloch's house.

No, I was in her garden.

Why were you in her garden?

I don't know, I just...

I wan... I wanted to see her.

Right, so you spoke to her?

No. No.

I mean...

..I wanted to...to look at her.

Why?

I jus...

I wanted to look at her.

You know, see if she still looked the way that she did when...

..she came to the house that day....

And did she?

No.

She just looked like a wee old woman.

Right, let me get this straight. You, er...

You didn't go into the house, you didn't talk to Eadie Tulloch,

and you didn't attack her, like you tried to attack Morag?

I just watched her through the window,

and then I went back to Amy's.

OK.

Was she with anyone else?

The thing is, Stevie...

It's really hard for us to believe you.

You say one thing, and then you go and do something

that completely contradicts that.

This morning...

..you told us you and Amy were bonded.

That you would do anything for each other.

And then we find out that you reported her to children's services.

No, I...

I didn't mean that.

So why'd you do it?

I think I wanted her to have that...

..feeling again.

What do you mean, what feeling?

Like...chaos.

When everything's out of control and you're falling.

When I was 13...

..er, I spent a year in a children's home in...

..Banff or...

..Elgin - I don't... I don't remember.

Anyway, er, the kids there, they would...

They'd play this game

where they'd imagine the families that would adopt them.

It's bullshit.

Nobody fucking wanted us.

I never fantasised about any family.

I just wanted to be at home, wi Amy.

With the chaos...

..and the falling feeling.

I was happy...

..there...

..wi Amy.

I think Amy's the only person that's ever loved me.

SHE SNIFFS

I didn't do this.

So what are your thoughts?

It sounded like the truth to me.

But we've been here before.

Oh, come on!

Even YOU can't think that children's home story was a lie.

Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't.

- Jesus. You're cynical! - What?! I'm not going to form an opinion

on someone...

..just cos they've given me the Little Orphan Annie schtick.

DI Calder.

Oh...

All right.

Right, thanks.

So...

SHE SIGHS

..Stevie's prints are not a match for the set

that were found at the Tulloch house.

So where does that leave us?

With no suspect and no motive.

OK. Well, look, it's not a total wash-out -

we can still charge Stevie for making the false report.

And that's before the assault on Morag.

Yeah. Except Morag's already said she doesn't want to press charges.

That's not her choice to make.

Er...

I'll take a view over it, we should, er...

..probably release Stevie for now.

I'll go and sort it.

Shit. I'm supposed to be going out.

Er...

I'm meeting a friend.

RATTLING

I'll leave you to it.

Amy.

I'm sorry.

SHE SIGHS

- Oh... - You made it, then? - Sorry, sorry, sorry.

Er, look who I ran into.

It's Ed. You remember Ed - don't you, Ruth?

Yes, I do.

How are you doing, Ed?

I'm fine.

Thought we could all eat together.

Sit down, both of you - I'll go to the bar.

Get us a nice bottle of wine.

Er, no, I'm fine. No wine for me, thanks.

Yeah - nor... Nor me.

We didn't "bump into" each other. He called me,

- invited me for dinner. - It's all right.

I didn't know you were coming.

I don't know what he's playing at.

Well, I think it's pretty obvious.

Look, I'll, er...get out your way.

No! No, it's fine, just stay.

- It's OK. - To be honest, I'm short-staffed at the pub.

- Ah. - I could do with being there. - Mm.

Tell James I'll get my revenge.

Hmm!

You know, it's not that I don't want to...

Dinner, I mean.

You. It's just... Y'know.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know, I know. It's fine.

- Catch you later. - Yes, go on. Go!

SHE SIGHS

Er, where's he going?

Did you scare him away?

YOU scared him away

with your bloody Cilla Black impression.

DI Calder. Leave a message.

Hi, it's Will.

I've got some information for you, right? So...

..just meet me at the fish market in an hour, and...

..don't be late - please.

DOOR OPENS

How can I help you?

Hello. I was wondering if I could speak to DI McIntosh, please.

Ray was with me the night the robbery at the docks took place.

Robert arrested him at the house the next morning.

At first, I wasn't worried, and I knew Ray hadn't done it.

I figured he'd be at the station a couple of hours

and then he'd come home.

But the day dragged on, and he didn't come back.

And then, about ten o'clock...

..Robert came to see me.

He said they were keeping him in overnight.

Holes in his story they needed to check.

I told him, "You've got it wrong. He was with me."

What did Robert say?

He said it would be better...

..if Ray wasn't at home.

That I should lie, and say he'd been out all night.

Robert was tired of him.

Wanted him off the Isles.

He made it quite clear that I was to help him do that.

But you refused.

Yes, of course I did.

But then...

..Robert reminded me...

..that Eadie was the head of family services...

..and one word from him, and she would start investigating us.

"Kids get taken from their mums all the time, Gina."

"You can either...

.."stand by Ray...

.."or...

.."or you can lose David."

Did Eadie know about this?

I don't know. But I... I couldn't take the chance.

I did what he said... I betrayed Ray.

I mean, to be fair to him, he understood why I had to do it,

he never blamed me for it.

Why didn't you report this, Gina?

Who to?

To another police officer.

Sergeant McCabe was here at that time.

Sergeant McCabe?

You mean Robert Tulloch's pal?

SHE SIGHS

BEEP

OK?

- Thank you very much. - There we go.

I'm just saying you've got a type.

- I don't have a type. - You do.

- You like the charming losers... - Hi, it's Will.

- ..the useless arty ones. - I've got some information for you.

You want to be someone's muse.

Shit. Arghh!

Don't be too hard on yourself.

- The heart wants what the heart wants. - Yeah. I'm sorry, James, er...

I've got to go.

Look, I'll see you later.

Louden?

Are you there?

See if this is a fucking wind-up!

SHE SIGHS, LINE RINGS

Hi, it's Will. Sorry I can't come to the phone right now.

Leave a message.

Louden?

Ohh...!

SHE WHIMPERS, SLAPS HIM GENTLY

SHE EXHALES SHARPLY
