SAM: Is this you
breaking into Aexous?

YELLING,
TYRES SCREECH

LAYAL: 'I didn't kill anyone,
I swear it!'

GUNSHOT ECHOES
Xav shot Todd.

Congratulations,
two Chief Constable Commendations.

Thank you, Sir.

There are horrible forever chemicals

in the water
running through our town.

'Where are they coming from?

'What about from Aexous
three miles upriver?'

We've got a fingerprint match
for the shotgun.

It's Donna Rower.

You said we could bank on Pat.

He's had enough pay-offs
over the years, so, yeah...

he needs reminding of that.

'Sam was going through your desk.'

Yeah, let's talk about Jo.

SAM: So, Donna Rower's print
is on the gun that shot them both.

Xav's body was staged
to mirror Todd's.

She's gotta be
part of the group, no?

Well, I've just been in
with Layal Ellis,

and she says that it was Xav,
Todd and herself.

No-one else. Said
she's never even heard of Donna.

Never heard of her?

Donna said Xav was her boyfriend.

Mm, she also said
that he was seeing other women,

so maybe they had a fight
about that.

Well, whoever stabbed Xav
was pretty angry...

or jealous.
Hm.

You were arrested for
threatening behaviour this evening.

My friend got into it with
some girl. I was backing her up.

Do you lose your temper a lot?
No.

Never. I'd had a few.

My anxiety's really bad today.

Why's that?

My boyfriend's been murdered.

Donna, can you clarify
something for us?

Do you think Xav Palmer

would've thought of himself
as your boyfriend?

Would he have called you
his girlfriend?

Because we do know he had
other women on the go, didn't he?

We weren't exclusive, no.

Right, so you slept
with other people as well?

No, actually.
Oh.

So it was all on his terms?
Weren't you jealous?

Not really.
What does that mean?

Did you fight about it?
No.

He'd have walked out
if I ever did that.

So is that what happened
the last time you saw him?

No.

No? He didn't break things off?
You didn't argue?

No. Nothing like that.

Did you go after him?
Did you follow him?

No. You weren't tempted
to see where he was going?

No. I've said no! Why do you keep
asking me the same question?

For the purpose of the recording,

I'm showing Donna a picture
of the Bensons' shotgun.

This gun was stolen
from the Crossdale Estate.

It was used to shoot Xav Palmer
and Todd Drake.

It has your thumbprint
on its barrel.

EXHALING: No.

But I've never seen that before.

Mm, that doesn't make sense,
though, does it?

Xav was involved in a group
that were targeting

the Aexous chemical plant -
were you part of that?

What?!
A yes or no, please.

Were you involved?
No!

Were you involved
in the death of Todd Drake?

Of course not! Did you use this gun
to shoot Xav Palmer?

I wouldn't even know how.
OK, look...

Did you kill Xav Palmer?

I can't...

I can't b...
That's it. Stop there.

She's not well.

No problem.
We can get the doctor in.

Interview terminated at 22:17.
DONNA BREATHES SHAKILY

Have you not got an home
to go to, Bradley?

Been here so long,
I think I've forgotten where it is.

JACKO LAUGHS
Oh, she's in with the doctor now.

I'll see you tomorrow, yeah?
Yeah.

Night, Jacko.
Night-night.

She went home earlier, right?

Nope. Some people are just
more dedicated than you, Jo.

I mean, she told me
she was going home.

Maybe something came up.
Hmm. I don't know.

Something's off about her.
How do you mean?

I don't know.
She's just sort of hard to pin down.

She didn't show up
to the fire last night.

She reckons she missed the call.
That is pretty off.

Yeah?
Very concerning.

Do you think...
Sam might actually have a life?

Shut up.
I'm just pleased somebody does.

SHE CHUCKLES
Do you...?

Mm, I'm driving. And I'm knackered.

There's the spare room
if you change your mind.

Yeah. Yeah, maybe a small one.

Hm.

Oh, I just...
I feel like I am banging my head

against a brick wall.

OK, right,
the thing about Saskia Bale is,

what is she doing now?

Like, what has she been doing since
the burglary charges were dropped?

Cos they're years ago now.

And has Mackie had any dealings
with her since?

Yeah, I mean, you know,
he did with Lee.

You know, he kept him close.

And he used him again
and again and again.

Yeah, which isn't without its risks.

I mean, you know,
look where Keith ended up. Yeah.

Shall I just run a check
on her tomorrow?

Jesus Christ, don't do that.

You'll be in the bosses' office
like I was.

Yeah, but we're not
getting anywhere!

OK. I... I might know
where she works.

This is for a "Saskia Clarke".

But look at the photos

and tell me that's not
Saskia Bale ten years on?

That... I mean, that's her,
isn't it? Mm.

Do you have an address for her?

No, but she's waitressing
at a pub near Safton Mill -

or she was,
that's what it says here.

We'd have to check it out.

OK. So she's not local any more?
No, she moved.

But, I mean, I can go down there
tomorrow afternoon.

Oh, yeah, and miss my commendation?

No, I'll... I'll...
I'll be there, I promise.

I'm... I'm sorry
that you've gotta do all that.

I'm sorry about everything.

EVE CRYING
ON BABY MONITOR

I'll go.
No, it's fine. It's fine. I'll go.

Her bottle's on the side.

JO CHUCKLES SOFTLY

Shh-shh, shh-shh.

FRONT DOOR OPENS,
CLOSES

Quiet drink with Deepa, was it?

No, I was at the station all night.

I was working.
What, all night?

Yeah, we've got, erm...

Oh, I mean,
you know them all, anyway.

We've got Finn and Layal and Donna
helping us with enquiries.

You've got Donna? Oh, my...

How is she? Where's she been?

No, no.
I can't give you any details.

Right, but you've got
all three of them?

For the same thing?
No, I've said...

No, but with Layal and Finn,
is it to do with the burning sign

on the hill and the chemicals?
Mum... Mum! Mum!

That's why I can't get through
to Layal about these.

What are they?
River water samples to be tested.

And Layal does the testing.

Well, not this time, she doesn't.
Oh, come on! Jo, it's...

They're important.
Sorry, but...

Listen, I need to get
my dress uniform sorted.

It's all done.

Oh. Oh, well, thank you.

You look good on no sleep.

OK. Fine, I did...

I did pop round to Pat's
and got a couple of hours there.

Oh! No, I only went
because I wanted to see Eve.

Course you did!

It's a flying visit.

Couldn't you phone?

Well, you can't hang up
face to face, can you?

Are you coming to the commendation?

I've said I would.

How's it going with Jack?
Are you sorting him out?

I'm seeing Alan Benson later on.
It'll be fine.

What I am concerned about, though,
is Pat and Jo.

Seems they've taken an interest
in some old colleagues of mine

as well as Saskia Bale.

Is that a problem?
I'll handle them.

But can you have a word with Saskia?
Me?

Why me? I've nothing to do
with any of it. She likes you.

I have a more...
complicated relationship with her.

Do you know where she is?

I'll text you her work address now.

She just needs a gentle reminder
of everything we've done for her.

PHONE CHIMES

My concern is,
if they're onto Saskia,

what about the others?

The others have been
well taken care of.

They won't step out of line.

I'd still rather stay out of it.

But you'll do it.

SIGHS DEEPLY

Good. See you later.

GATE OPENS

Molly!
SHE HUFFS

Look, Molly, I've come to apologise.
OK? You were right.

I should've told you
that I was gonna see Sarah.

Right, apology accepted.
Have a nice life. Hang on!

Look, I've come back from Lanzarote
because of you.

Oh, get away with you.

You had to come back after 90 days,
everyone does.

Yeah, well, I mean, apart from that.

Look, look, this thing with Sarah,
OK, it was a hustle.

It was a business hustle.

What happened in the past
remains in the past, OK?

I'm just begging you,
let me redeem myself, yeah?

All right. I need someone to help me
test these river water samples.

I am at your service.

Good. All right.

I need a lab that'll test them
straight away, back today.

OK. Right you are.
Call me if you get anywhere.

Wh...?

Donna's fit for interview again.
Oh, great.

Oh, and we're gonna let
Finn Allen go for now.

Good. Er, what about Layal?

No, she stays put. She's in trouble
whichever way this goes.

Perverting the course of justice,
preventing proper burial of a body,

breaking and entering.
Mm.

Right, er, picking up
where we left off,

we would like to know
when you handled this gun.

I told you,
I've never seen it before.

Never seen it or touched it.

OK, well, have a think about that,
because that's not possible, is it?

Let's talk about Xav.
He was into the environment, yeah?

I dunno.

We didn't talk
about things like that.

He... He came to me to switch off.

We watched TV, and... you know.

All right. What did he say
about Todd Drake and Layal Ellis?

Donna, Todd and Layal
were a huge part of Xav's life.

Well, he didn't talk to me
about them.

Did he ever mention Aexous?

No.
What about the Bensons?

What's that? You reacted
when I said "the Bensons".

Xav worked on
their grouse shoots sometimes.

So what? Did he have some kind
of run-in with Alan Benson?

DONNA SCOFFS SOFTLY

Does that mean he did?

No.

With Harriet.

They had a thing last summer,
didn't last long.

Xav Palmer and Harriet Benson?

Yeah.

Didn't you know?

So, you're not denying
you were in a relationship with him.

Oh, please. Really?

When we were 16, 17, Xav was
a beater for the grouse shoots.

And we'd smoke weed,
and the rest, you know?

Nothing serious.

Then last summer,
he's back as a loader,

we run into each other again.

The past gave us
a sort of short-hand,

and Xav's not unattractive.

Wasn't unattractive.

And, yeah, we had what I thought
was a discreet fling.

Which you didn't think
to tell us about?

I thought about it but decided
it wasn't helpful or useful.

Harriet, he was shot with your gun.

My gun was stolen.
Yeah, and you didn't report that.

As I said at the time,

we weren't aware it was missing
until you contacted us.

You didn't seem too bothered
when we told you Xav was dead.

Yes, well, "seem"
is the operative word there.

It was horrible when I heard
he was one of the dead men.

You might remember, though,

I was the one that said
Xav was here last summer.

I just couldn't admit to anything
more than that in front of my dad.

Why not?

Well, apart from the fact he'd
obviously be regarded as unsuitable,

I'm embarrassed to say Xav used me,
and I fell for it.

Used you in what way?

The first time I let him stay over,
my dad was away.

I woke in the night
to find he wasn't in my bed.

He was downstairs,
going through my dad's office.

What was he looking for?

It was a brief conversation.
I was pretty angry.

But he said something
about an NDA his father signed

when he left Aexous.

Sorry, er,
Xav's father worked at Aexous? Mm.

When?
Years ago.

He was some sort of scientist,
I think, but that is all I know.

OK, and, erm,
what was the NDA about?

Oh, no idea.
We didn't get into the details.

I wanted him gone.
So he didn't find it?

He certainly didn't have it on him,

cos he was standing there
stark naked.

His clothes were still
in my bedroom.

And that's it.
I never saw him again.

So you didn't tell your dad
about any of this?

What do you think?
FRONT DOOR OPENS

You may have noticed
my dad is not very forgiving.

DOOR CLOSES
ALAN: Harriet?

DS Bradley, DC Marshall.

What's going on?
It's all right.

They just needed
to go over my statement.

And if you don't mind,
we'd like to continue in private.

You'll have to come back
another time,

when our lawyer's present.

So, Xav's father worked for Aexous.

Maybe Harriet had
a pretty good reason to shut him up,

because her alibi for the night
Xav died is non-existent.

We should see what Layal
has to say about this, and the NDA.

What is he doing here?

Dunno.

Shit.

A bit of warning would've been nice.

Harriet was caught
on the back foot just now.

I'll have a word.
Yes, do.

So, you asked for this meeting?

Yeah, I'm here about Jack Radcliffe.

You'll remember I put you onto
the precarious state of his finances

with regard to Upland,
his housing development.

And?
Yeah, well, Jack now suspects

the part I played,
and he's looking for some redress.

Look, I don't think
we're talking about a huge sum.

Just a small percentage
of the profit should do the trick.

SCOFFS
There won't be any profit.

Harriet's put paid to that.

She's bleeding me dry
getting it up to standard.

Landscaping, eco this and that,
re-greening.

Besides...

that's not how this works, Phil,
you know that.

I can't be getting myself mixed up
in anything untoward.

I've my reputation to think of.

No-one need know.

Everything was above board
and legal.

I paid him what he was due.

If I start making additional
payments, what does that say?

You gotta trust me.
It's best we nip this in the bud.

Yes, of course.
And I'm not saying don't do it.

I'm just saying that I can't.

I made you a mint.

Do I really have to beg?

I'm sorry, Phil,
but the answer's no.

So this meeting's over.

Do I have to order at the bar?

Not if you know what you want.
Here you go.

You're not in any trouble.
I... I'm not here about you.

I just wanna ask you a few
questions, if that's all right.

What about?

OK, well, first of all,
could you tell me what your name is?

Saskia.

Saskia Clarke? Or Bale?

What's your next question?

Will you talk to me
about Phil Mackie?

Sergeant Mackie?

You were fostered
by Phil and Sarah Mackie, right?

Look, I'm not...
I'm not a friend of his.

And I am burning so many bridges
by being here,

but that's OK
because I've reached the point

where I have to at least try
and stop him

from doing what he's been doing.

And trust me, I...

I know what I'm talking about
because he has ruined my life.

Look, I have to go
back to work, but...

..there's a churchyard over the way.

I take my break in 15 minutes.

MOLLY: Tony. Tony, come on.

Come and sit down.
I'm sure she'll be out soon.

You met Xav Palmer, didn't you?

Yeah, a while back,
in a kind of group setting.

Did you ever see Donna with him?

She came to see him once,
but it was a bit awkward, actually,

cos he ignored her, like
he was annoyed that she was there.

That's the trouble, see.
He treated her like she was nothing.

What if they think
that she got sick of it?

Aw, Tony. Tony, just look at me.
Look! Look at me.

Listen, we know where she is now,
don't we, yeah?

It's all gonna be sorted.
What did Jo say?

She must've said something, Molly.
Nothing. I'm sorry. I promise you.

Oh, God. What about Declan?

If she gets locked up and I'm gone,
what gonna happen to him?

DONNA: Look, I can't breathe!
MAN: Take a seat.

No! That's Donna screaming.
God, come on, sweetheart. Calm down.

It's fine, T... Oh, my God. Jo!

Jo, please have a word.
Not at the moment, Mum, sorry.

Jo, we need to do this now.
Jo, I need a word.

I can't talk.
I need a word with you.

I will come back.
No, I need to speak to you now!

I'll catch you up, OK? Look, Tony,
Donna is gonna be a while, OK?

But we don't know exactly how long,

so it would really be for the best
if you both go home.

She's right, let's go.
It's about Xav.

I can't answer questions, Tony.
Come on.

Donna didn't kill him, I did!

She didn't lay a finger on him.

I know that for a fact cos...

..cos it was me.

I killed Xav.

Oh, you're a champion, Kell.
Thank you.

I'll tell him. All right.
See you, love. Bye. Bye, bye, bye.

So, Kelly's looking after Declan.

OK, good.
This is crazy.

You know,
Tony must be saying he did it

to get Donna out of the picture.

Well, that will become evident.
Yeah, well, I hope so.

Cos he seems pretty determined
to take the blame,

and you lot need to know that.

OK, listen, Mum,
there are things that we know

that the public don't, OK?

I shouldn't really say this,

but it was Xav who shot Todd
when he was already dead, OK?

No, no. Just listen to me.
Just listen to me.

And then Xav's body
was also shot after he died

and staged to look exactly the same.

So whoever killed Xav had to
have known what happened to Todd,

and that could've been Donna
because, you know,

it was her thumbprint on the gun
that was used. What? What?

Tony knew.
Tony knew what?

About Todd being shot
after he was dead.

How?
Well, you told me, remember?

And then me and him
were just chatting on the phone.

And... Oh, God, I didn't mean it.
It just slipped out.

When was this? Not before Xav died?

Oh, for God's sake, Mum!

Oh, God.

I'll... I'll see you
at the commendation thing.

OK, Mr Rower, as you're aware...

For the purposes of the recording,
DC Marshall has entered the room.

As you're aware,
your daughter Donna is in custody

for the crime
you've just admitted to.

She didn't do it, I did.

But you understand
we can't just accept that?

All right. Let's start
by clarifying a few key details.

How did Xav Palmer die?
I stabbed him.

Not on purpose initially.
It was self-defence.

What did you stab him with?

A screwdriver.

It was to hand.
I'd been working on the house.

And where is it now?

I chucked it away
on the drive up to the moors.

Can you show us where?
Yeah.

And whereabouts on his body
did you stab him?

Er, here.

OK. How many times?
Er...

I'm not sure, er...
four, maybe five.

OK, and then what did you do
with the body?

I put him in my car.

Where'd you take him?

Up to the moor.

OK. So you left Xav's body
on the moor.

No other injuries
beside the stab wounds?

Yeah.
OK.

And then I shot him.

He'd hidden a shotgun
in a box we'd brought over

from where Donna was staying.

That's why he came round.
He was, er, looking for it.

So why did you shoot him?

I heard that's what was done
to the other poor guy, Todd Drake.

From who?

Erm...

I dunno.

You know, I'm on the council,
so everyone was ringing,

asking what was true
and what wasn't, and some...

I don't remember who,
but someone had said

that he was shot
after he was killed.

So just a... a rumour, basically?

I dunno.
It just seemed like a good idea.

What to...
to put the blame on somebody else?

Whoever did what they did
to Todd Drake wasn't innocent,

were they? So, yeah.

And I was defending myself. Yeah?

You said Xav Palmer
came to your house. What time?

Er, around six.

You sure about that?

Yeah, Declan went off
to his party at 5:30.

Where was Donna?

At her place,
packing the rest of her things.

I was on my own, and there was
this almighty hammering on the door,

and Xav barges in.

He was looking for something
but not saying what.

And then... then he finds the box

that we had brought over
from Donna's and...

and he... he started to rip it open,

and out comes the shotgun
in two pieces.

He... He knew
what he was looking for.

And I was asking him,

"Why the hell did you hide
your shotgun in her stuff?"

And he loses it. And, er...

And then he comes at me
as if he was gonna hit me with it...

VOICE BREAKING: ..so I grabbed
the screwdriver and used it.

SOBS

HE SOBS GENTLY

Sam...
It all matches.

Even Donna's print makes sense
if Xav hid the gun in her stuff.

It's him.

But we'll double-check everything,

and we'll search the house
before charging him.

No, Sam. Look, there's a problem.

Erm, I think I should've stopped
the interview as soon as I came in.

Why, what's happened?

He didn't hear a rumour about Todd.

What do you mean?

Erm, look, OK, my mum works with him
on the council.

And I think
that she mentioned it to him...

..because I told her
that Todd was shot after he died.

You're fucking joking me, right?
I really wish that I was.

Am I... Am I still on the case?
Can I come to the search?

No, you can't.

But let's just say it's because
you're being honoured for bravery.

You said he ruined your life.

I should've been stronger,

but because of Mackie,
I had to lie to my wife -

big lies, for a long time, and I...
I lost her because of it.

You came up when I was looking
at a burglary case that he dropped.

Right.

Made me think of someone else
that he used to foster.

Lee Ellison?

SHE EXHALES
Oh, Lee.

We weren't with the Mackies at the
same time, he was much older. But...

But we were in care together.

I was this tiny thing,
and he was this giant.

And I'd run into him sometimes.

It was so sad when he died

because he could handle Mackie
and still be himself.

You know? He could...
He could outsmart Mackie.

I wish that was true.
It was.

He... He was doing OK.

He was taken away in an accident.

Please don't say otherwise.

Lee would still be alive
if it wasn't for Mackie.

Cos that's...
that's what he does, isn't it?

He helps you, and then he works you,

and then he uses you, no?

What happened to you?

He got me off
those burglary charges.

Then... Then him and Sarah helped me
get into teacher training college.

They knew that working with kids
was all I wanted to do.

They were so good.

And then when I was there,
and I was loving it,

Mackie asked me to meet this man
who'd get me some extra money for...

Well, they said it was for nothing.

All I had to do
was meet this guy in a club

and talk to him for half an hour.

Which was true the first time,
but then it...

..then it was going to parties or...

or to someone's hotel room.
PAT SIGHS

These men were all flash,
and they owned cars to match.

So the high-end car thefts.

Yeah, and I was a honeytrap
who kept them occupied

while their cars were being nicked,
which was dangerous because...

because these men
weren't the type of people

to go to the police
when their car's taken.

And if they find out I'm involved...

You'd be in a lot of trouble.

Scary. Eventually,
one guy did go to the police,

and I got three years
for soliciting, keeping a brothel,

and conspiracy to commit theft.

And because of
the sex-related charges, I...

I can't work with kids,
so I couldn't go back to college,

All for five grand.

And I can't do anything about it,
because I can't tell the truth,

because who's gonna take my word
over Mackie's?

So ever since, I've been anxious
that he was gonna reach out again.

So I moved away, I changed my name.

And I'm happier.

Well, then I hesitate to ask this,
but...

..if I could find more people
who were willing to come forward...

Would I speak out against him?

Hey, look...
HE CLEARS THROAT

..regardless of everything else,

there was a High Court ruling
a few years ago

that said that women forced
into prostitution as teenagers

do not need to disclose

any related convictions
to potential employers.

It can't be held against you
any more.

I will send you the link.

Thank you.

I can't promise anything. Erm...
No.

But I know others who were fostered
by the Mackies,

who were used, or "helped".

Have you seen Saskia?

Saw her, yes. She was with Pat.

You spoke to her, though?

In the circumstances,
I thought it best not to.

What do you mean? Why the hell not?

Self-preservation?

In the spirit of things,

don't worry,
I'll stay for the ceremony, but...

that's it, Phil, for you and me.

I'm filing for divorce.

No, no, you can't.

So... only contact through
my solicitor from now on. Hm?

Just... Just wait.

At least let's talk about it.

My mind is made up.
Let me try again.

Phil... Please, your terms.
I'll do anything.

You're embarrassing yourself.

I love you. Please don't do this.

BALSARA: I'm gonna have to steal
your husband, I'm afraid.

Be my guest, steal away.
The Chief Constable's here.

JACK: Molly! Moll!
I'm late.

It's OK. Hey, look, I've had
those water tests done for you.

Two miles upriver, turns out
there's a bloody great spike

where the water's contaminated.

What, at the chemical works,
at Aexous? No.

Where, then?
Geoff Dixon's farm.

What's all that about?

I dunno, but, er... Hey,
where do you think you're going?

You can't come to the do
dressed like that.

You'll have to wait outside.
What?

Go on, shoo.

JO: Mum.
God.

Hey, Jo. You haven't even changed
yet. Why haven't you changed?

Right, come on,
let me give you a hand. Up here.

Oh, Mum, I'm fine!
Come on.

Right, just round here.
Yeah, I am.

All right.
Hurry up. Give us your jacket.

There's plenty of time!
There's no time at all.

Hey, how are we doing?
Yeah.

Yeah, we're just getting changed.
Give me that. I'll be two minutes.

Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up.
Two minutes.

Quick.

Any news on Layal?

JO SCOFFS
You've a cheek asking me anything!

Oh, come on, just a hint.

Let's just say there won't be much
wild swimming where she's going.

Where's my phone?

Sorry, is her phone there?
Er...

Yeah.
Oh, ta.

You'd think she's got
all the time in the world. Ta.

Aw, I love a full dress uniform, me.

Aw! You really look the part.
I'm so proud of you.

Yeah, well, you shouldn't be.
MOLLY SCOFFS

What are you talking about?
You saved a life last year.

You were incredible.

Aw, just wish your dad was here.
He'd be thrilled!

PHIL: 'The recipient
of the next two awards

'is an officer
who showed outstanding courage

'in the face of danger.'

Not only did she save a baby's life
in the flood last year,

but she held her own when taken
hostage by a violent criminal.

She is fearless,
dedicated and loyal -

an example to every serving officer.

Detective Constable Jo Marshall.

Er... Well, erm...

DC Marshall's
obviously been delayed.

Let's move on to the next award,

and we'll, er, no doubt
return to that one later.

Sergeant Mackie. Is now a good time?

Just get out of my face.
Certainly. Where's my money?

How much do you want, eh? How much?

I want what Benson did me out of.

Yeah, well, I went and asked him,
and he said no.

He's not gonna pay you anything.

So how much would it take
to shut you up? 50 grand?

I lost millions.
60. I don't have millions.

You're a shit negotiator,
aren't you?

70. Final offer.

Hey!

Where is she? Where's Jo?

She said she had to make
some enquiries and had to rush off.

What?
Where are you going?

Why were you talking to him
like that? Molly...

No, that man has been so good to me
since Bren died, SO good.

Molly...
No, what has he ever done to you?

Nothing, whereas you,
here we go again. Sarah...

Molly, he's bent.

Oh, don't be ridiculous.

15 months ago, right,
just before the flood,

I was desperate for money,
Mackie offered to help me out.

Insurance fraud.
Daniel Eden was in on it as well.

Does that name ring a bell?

Yeah, a man found in the lift.
Lee Ellison killed him.

No, Lee Ellison got the blame.
Mackie killed him.

The plan went pear-shaped.

Things got out of hand,
Mackie lost it,

and he ended up
beating Daniel to death.

I should know, I was in the room,
and so was Pat.

Pat?!
Yeah. Pat's bent too.

No! No!
Molly... Molly, I was there -

in the room, with Pat,
with Lee, with Sarah.

Shut up. Shut up!
Just listen to me.

No. I don't wanna hear it any more!
No. Oh, right. Why?

Because Mackie and Bren
were that close

so what applies to one
might apply to both?

Don't you dare!

Jo believes it. She knows it's true.

Jo doesn't know this!
Jo knows everything.

Molly, I swear to God,
I am telling you the truth.

Fuck off! Fuck right off,
and for fucking ever!

Come on.

PHONE RINGS

Hey, Declan.

You OK?
Yeah, I'm fine.

Look, I know
this must just be terrifying.

Grandad's been ages.

Is Mum coming back or not?

I, er...

OK, look, why don't I go
and catch up with my colleagues,

and then I'll come back
and explain everything. Yeah?

SAM: Jo?

Erm, can you...?
Will you just wait there a sec?

What are you doing here?

Er, getting awards after screwing up
just doesn't sit right.

They can post it to me.
Are you OK with me being here?

That was totally unacceptable.
We'll talk about it later.

Luckily for you,
they've just called to say

they've found the screwdriver,
and it was where Tony said it was.

What your mam told him gave him
the chance to give us the runaround,

but his confession seems genuine.

OK. And, er, what've we got here?

Lots of blood.
Under the floorboards.

Samples have gone off to the labs,

but the stains are consistent
with stabbing. OK.

PHONE BUZZES

Pat Holman.

Hello?

'It's Saskia.'

Hi.
'Hi. Er...'

I wanna thank you for today,
and I just wanted to let you know

that the first two people
that I called,

both fostered by the Mackies,

they've both said,
"Yeah, let's take them down."

I'm gonna call others
because I think we need numbers.

'In your own time.'

And I'll come up with a strategy
for if we move forward.

And I'll send you that link

so you can have a look
at the teacher training again.

Thank you.
'No, it's the least I can do.'

I'll be... I'll be in touch.
'OK, and thanks.'

Bye.

PHONE BUZZES

'Ey up, Pat.

'Hi. Er, sorry I wasn't...
I missed the commendation.'

'Yeah, what happened?'

I'm, er...
on the other side of Calden Vale.

I've had a bloody puncture.

'Oh, you're joking.'
Mm.

What are you doing out that way?

'I came to get Eve a new buggy.'

'You weren't seeing anyone,
were you?'

No. No, no, no.

'Are you sure?'
Yeah.

Cos I heard...
PHONE BEEPS

I heard you developed
an interest in fostering.

Are you thinking of doing it
yourself, are you?

Cos you might need to be married.

Which is a bit of a problem for you,
isn't it?

PAT GRUNTS

Jo didn't get your text, I did.

"Saskia was good.
I think we've got him."

You fucking...

GRUNTS

Think again.

That's it. In you go. Come on.

Deepa, erm, when you interviewed
the kids at the party,

did you speak to Declan Rower?

He was interviewed, but not by me.
Why?

Mm. I saw him just now.
He couldn't get away fast enough.

Can't really blame him.
True.

Unless there's a chance
he saw something?

Well, not according to Tony.

Only looking.

Er, Soph?

Soph, can I just ask you
about the party?

I've answered
all the questions I can about that.

Yeah. Declan was there, right?
Yes.

The whole time?
How do you mean?

Well, what time did he get there?
I dunno.

OK, just roughly.
Er...

Midnight, whenever. Who cares?

No. Sophie,
don't just walk away from me.

Sophie!
