Goodbye.
Thank you.

St John's Wood.

Come on, now.

Charles, is that you?

Come and see what the boys have
made.

Katherine?

Charles!
Katherine?

Charles! Charles!

Katherine!

Katherine!
Charles, the window.

It just came through the window.

Has he gone, Charles?

Papa's here. Are you OK, James?
Let me check your hands.

His hand's bleeding, Charles.
William's cut.

He's cut his hand, Charles. Papa's
here now.

Ssh, ssh, ssh...

Mr Whicher?

Mrs Piper. Good evening.

You weren't at the service.
No, no.

Are you walking back to the house?
Yes, I am.

I hope you're finding your room
suitable?I am. Thank you.

I hope you're not er...
disturbed by my coming and going.

Oh, not at all.

Well, you warned me
that you keep irregular hours.

I'm sure it must be unavoidable
in your line of work.

Would you like a cup of tea?
Um...

No, thank you.

Do come in.

There's still quite a chill in the
air, isn't there?

Spring is taking her time this year.

Yes.

Though I did see some flowers
coming up in the garden.

Lilac.

Be nice to see what else is out
there.

It's a wonder anything survived.
It's so overgrown.

You haven't been here long then?
No. About six months.

I inherited the house from my
brother.

When my husband was alive,
we rented a house in Bow.

Do you know it?
I do, yes.

After he died I went abroad for a
while.

This place was in quite a state when
I took it on.

Well, you've done a good job with
it.Thank you.

Only the garden to tackle now.

Do you take sugar, Mr Whicher?
Yes. Thank you.

I could help you, if you like.

With the garden.

I enjoy it. My father used to be a
gardener.

Well, that's very kind of you.
Only if you have time.

Shall I?
Yes. Thank you.

Good evening, Mr Whicher.
Good evening.

I wonder if I might have a word?

Come in, sir.

Who is it?

Ah, an old acquaintance, ma'am. This
is Mrs Piper. She's my landlady.

Good evening to you, ma'am.
Good evening.

Use the sitting room if you wish, Mr
Whicher.Thank you.

After you, sir.
I'm afraid the fire isn't lit.

No matter.

Please, sit down.
Thank you.

You recognise me then?
Yes, sir.

We met a couple of years ago
at the Home Office. A lunch.

Yes. You regaled us with tales of
keeping the peace on the London streets.

What can I do for you, Sir Edward?

I have a private family difficulty.

My son - my only son - Charles.

He has spent some years in India
and he's recently returned.

He has reason to believe that there is a
person at large who is a danger to him,

and to his family.

I want that person found.

With all due respect, sir,
that sounds like a police matter.

This isn't something
I can take to Scotland Yard.

You're probably aware that my
party is no longer in office.

Yes.

But in the meantime,
I remain a Member of Parliament.

I can't stress too strongly the need for
absolute secrecy regarding this situation.

That goes without saying.
Good.

I must say, sir, I'm...surprised that
you've come to me.

I have a letter upstairs
dismissing me from the Force.

It has your name at the bottom of
that letter.

Yes. That was an extremely difficult
business.

I'm sure you appreciate that as a
minister, I had to rely upon the advice...

Commissioner Mayne.

I was going to say the medical
officers.

That was a long time ago.

I'm here, Mr Whicher.

That must tell you something
about my opinion of your abilities.

Thank you.

So, will you take the case?

I'm not asking you to become
involved in something underhand.

I'm quite sure, sir.

But...I have to know more.

Thank you.
Thank you, guv'nor.

You say this happened on Friday,
Captain Shore?

Yes, in broad daylight.

And this man, Jabour...?
Asim Jabour.

What is it he wants with you?

I was in India for 12 years. It's a
very long time.

I went out with the Army, but after a few years
I resigned my commission and moved into trade.

Some months ago, I committed an
indiscretion.

What sort of indiscretion?

Does that matter?
Yes.

Let's just say it's not the sort of thing
I would have wanted my wife to hear about.

I'm sure you can imagine.

Now, Jabour came to me demanding
money. I gave him some, not much.

A little while later,
he came back asking for more.

Gave me two weeks to come up with it. By
this time I'd already decided to leave India.

I'd made my fortune, so to speak, and
I wanted my sons to be educated here.

By the time I left, I thought that
would be the end of it.

You say he was working as a sailor
when he approached you.

Lascars, isn't that what they're
called?Er, yes.

Was he dressed as a lascar
when he followed you?

Look...all we want you to do is to
find him.

I'd do it myself, but I don't want
to leave my family alone.

And if I do find him? What then?

Katherine, not now.

Forgive me.Take them upstairs. I
won't be long.

Allow me to say good night.
Say good night to Grandpa.

Good night, Grandpapa.
Good night, James.

Good night.
Good night, William.

You bearing up? Brave little
soldier.

It's not knowing when he's going to
come back.

That's what they do - let you know
they're out there and make you wait.

Katherine. I'll see you upstairs.
Sorry.

Good night.
Come on.

Good night.
Off to bed now.

Katherine can get er... rather
anxious.

She came through the mutiny with me.

You say that you were leaving your
bank

when you first became aware
that you were being followed?

Ah, yes.

Is it possible that Jabour could
have known the address of the bank?

Ah, yes, um...because of the payment
I made.

Perhaps you should get somebody else
to help you watch the house?

No, I can defend the house.

Would you require money in advance,
Mr Whicher?

That won't be necessary, sir, no. If you
do find him, send word to me at once.

My home address.
Never go through Westminster.

Write me nightly reports.
Yes, sir.

Charles is a fine man. He spent five
years serving Queen and country.

I don't judge.

None of us are free from weakness,
sir.

..get off his backside
and give us a hand over here.

One, two, three. Lift!

Is the boatswain about?

I'm told you started out from
Calcutta.That's right.

And you docked on Wednesday?
Is this insurance?

Because if it is...
No, it's not, no.

I'm a private inquiry agent.

I'm looking for a sailor,
a lascar by the name of Asim Jabour.

I was hoping I might be able
to have a look at your crew list.

Huh. Well, you can.

I doubt it'll do you much good.
None of them can write.

We ask them their names
and write down what we hear,

and half of them don't give their real
names. The man I'm looking for is unusual.

He's tall for an Indian,
very pale-skinned. Oh, him.

Hm.
You know the man?

We certainly had one like that.
He was trouble.

Gave him the lash more than once.
What did he call himself?

Karim, that's him.

Abdul Karim.

Where is he now?
No idea.

He made off, as soon as we docked.
There's always a few.

They think the streets are made of
gold.

They end up begging for soup
down at the Strangers' Home.

Can I speak to some of the others?
You can try.

Judd.

So what's he done?
I can't say.

I hope it's a hanging offence.

Does anybody speak English?

You're wasting your time.

Abdul Karim. I'm looking for a man
named Abdul Karim.

I know he was on this ship with
you.

He's gone.

Does anyone know where?

He's not in trouble. I'm trying to
stop him from getting into trouble.

He said they will...leave the ship
in London.

Who's they? Was he with someone?

His brother. A boy.
Sssh...

Pratihinsa!
Ah, Pratihinsa!

What does that mean?

Right.

There's a pub just along the quay.
The Hope and Anchor.

I'll be in there tonight.

If anyone has any information
they can come and find me.

There'll be a reward. Money.

Your man...

I remember something. I caught him
in the passengers' quarters.

Twice. Talking to someone.

They're not allowed near the
passengers.

Who was he talking to?

Thanks.
Good day.

Hah! Walk on.

Yes?

I wondered if I might have a word with
Major Gilbraith? Or Mrs Gilbraith?

They're not at home. What is this
regarding?

I wanted to ask them some questions
about their voyage on the Southern Star.

In particular about a nanny or a
governess that travelled with them.

Is she still in their employ?
What's this, Mr Denison?

This is Miss Khan.
Governess to the Major's children.

I wonder if I might have a word with
you, miss?

What about?
My name is Whicher.

I'm making private enquiries
on behalf of a client.

Are you a policeman?
No, I'm not a policeman.

Fasten your coats, children.
We'll be going in a minute.

I'm trying to trace a man. A lascar on board the
Southern Star who called himself Abdul Karim.

Someone thought they might have seen
you speaking to him.

I didn't notice any of the lascars.
Why would I?

I don't involve myself with people
like that. Come along, children.

He might have had a boy with him.

I'm afraid if you want to ask me any more
questions, you'll have to walk with us.

The children need some air.

Are we going to the park,
Miss Khan?Good day.

Let me open the gate.

Issie, you're it!

I have to be careful, Mr Whicher.

It's...difficult for me to be
accepted here.

The servants already look down on
me.

I sincerely apologise
if I've compromised you, Miss Khan.

Thank you.

I did speak to a lascar who...
fits your description.

But only to pass the time of day.

He had the same dialect as me.

It was a voice from home.

You understand?
Yes.

And there was a boy with him.

Do you have any idea at all
where they could be?

Well, I'm not sure yet.

I expect they'll still be
around the docks somewhere.

It's rare for people from the ships
to venture too far into the city.

Yes.

This country is not... a hospitable
place for people like them.

I had no choice but to come here.

I've been with the Major now
for many years.

And a mother will do anything
to stay with her child.

Well, I must get on.

May I ask you one more thing?

Have you heard the word "pratihinsa"
before?

"Pratihinsa?"
Yes.

Why?

It's something one of the lascars said when
I asked why Karim might have disappeared.

Can you tell me what it means?

It's a difficult word to translate.

It...speaks of honour and
of...vengeance.

It's a dangerous word.

Good day.

Good day, Miss Khan.

What are you doing there?

Father John. Jack Whicher.

Do you remember me?
Ah, yes! Inspector Whicher.

Oh, it's not Inspector any more. I
left the Force a few years back now.

Did you? Well, what can we do for
you? We're busy, as you can see.

I'm...I'm looking for a particular lascar.
I was hoping he might be staying here.

His name is Asim Jabour, but he might
be going under the name Abdul Karim.

We don't ask for names. Look, I'm afraid
I'll have to ask you to leave, Mr Whicher.

We can't have people in here asking
questions.

All we do is feed them and clothe
them,

and give them a bed until they feel
strong enough to face the voyage back.

Yes. Yes, it's good work you do.
Look.

Whatever crime your man has
committed,

it can't be worse than the one being committed
aboard those ships in the name of profit.

This man might have a boy with him.
His brother.

He's very young.

If you do see them, could you at least
mention to them that I'm looking for them?

Good afternoon, Mr Whicher.

I'm trying to help them as much
as I'm trying to help my client.

Please. See yourself out.

Get off me!

Evening.

A pint of ale, please.
I'll bring it over to you.

Where are we going?

Come. Come, please.

Please, sir, come.

What? Is it the money?

Do you want money?
No.

No. No money.

Is that where I'll find him? Abdul
Karim?

I've got it.

Pull it in.

Hello there.
Just spotted him in the water.

Someone's gone for the police.

What is it? It's possible
I've found your man, sir.

I see. Where is he?

Shouldn't you have stayed? If it's
him, he's not going anywhere.

He's lying on a slab in the morgue
by the docks.

Mrs Johnson, my coat.
Yes, Sir Edward.

Good Lord. Whicher.
Commissioner Mayne.

What on earth are you doing here?
Surely you're not working...

Ah. Ah, yes, of course,
you two know each other.

Mr Whicher is assisting me
with a small, personal enquiry.

I see.

I have to go out for a short while,
if you'll excuse me.

Well, you're looking well, Whicher.
I am. Likewise.

What's going on, Edward?
Nothing for you to worry about.

Go and look after our guests.
Can't someone else deal with this?

Sir Edward and his guests...
I'm afraid not, ma'am.

Is this about Charles and those
children?

Georgina!

Come along, Whicher.

It's him.

It's Asim Jabour.

The wound on the back of his
head is deep.

It's possible that it killed him outright
and he was thrown into the water.

Or he could have been unconscious
when he went in.

The post-mortem should tell us more.

Good.

Thank you, Mr Whicher.

Not quite what we were expecting, but...
you must let me know how much I owe you.

Did you see him today, Captain Shore?

See him?I wondered if he might have
approached you?

Sent you a message perhaps
or asked you for a meeting?

What are you implying?
I'm simply asking you a question.

What sort of a fool are you?

Why would we send you looking for
him if we knew where he was?

Why did you pay him with a banker's draft?
It's a strange way to pay a blackmailer.

I...I didn't say that.

What were you really paying him for,
Captain Shore?

There's a word he used to describe
why he'd come here: "Pratihinsa".

What does it mean?
Captain Shore?

Then there's the children.
Right, enough.

You've earned your money,
very easy money, I might add.

Now none of this is any of your damn business!
A man is dead. I think it is my business.

It's everyone's business. We
should talk about this in private.

There is nothing to talk about.
This isn't over for me or you.

Jabour was travelling with his
brother.

Unless he went under the water too,
he's still out there.

Oh, my God, the house! You don't know
what these people are capable of.

Katherine! Katherine!

Where are the children? They're in
bed. I just looked in on them. Why?

Charles. Charles!

Scotland Yard need to be told
about the identity of the body.

Why don't you go to Mayne? Speak to
him.

I can't.

They're all right.

No one's been here.

Are the children yours, Captain
Shore?

I really wish you wouldn't cry.

Sorry.

Some years ago...
not long after I arrived in India,

I took up with a girl...an Indian
girl.

It was supposed to be
a temporary arrangement.

Katherine arrived not long after and we got
married, but I didn't stop seeing this girl.

It's very normal out there, it was.

People have become a lot more
guarded since the mutiny.

Anyway, after Cawnpore I couldn't
stomach the Army any longer and I left.

We moved to a place in the hills
and started a business.

Katherine hasn't been able to have children.
But this girl, Zeenat - that was her name...

..she could.

We all lived together as a family
and...

..when we decided to move back to
England, I...

..told Zeenat... we wanted to take the
boys, and asked her to come with us.

But she didn't want to leave her country.
She said she was happy for the boys to go.

She'd never been particularly
interested in them, had she, Charles?

No.
She wasn't a natural mother.

She was...careless with them.

Always giving them medicines,
so that they wouldn't trouble her.

We offered to buy her a house
by way of compensation.

Said we'd send her a sum of money
from time to time.

I knew that she had brothers. I'd met
Asim Jabour once, maybe twice before.

I assumed she told her family
what was happening

and they were happy for me to
leave her and take the boys but...

it seems they weren't.

So the brothers came here
to take the children back?

And to take their revenge on me, no
doubt.

It's vital that the truth about the
boys' parentage remains secret.

If it were to come out I don't have to tell you
it would damage their prospects irreparably.

And your career, Father.

Let's not forget about that.
I'm trying to help you, Charles.

The boys can pass for English, Mr
Whicher.

You've seen them, haven't you,
and you thought they were mine?

Yes, ma'am.
Well, they feel like mine.

They are mine. Really.

Is that everything?
Yes.

Yes, sir.

Setting aside the question
of who killed Asim Jabour,

it's safe to say the brother
will assume it's you. I agree.

And it won't be long before
he comes for you. Oh, Lord.

Then find him.

You seem to know where these people
lurk.What do you think, Mr Whicher?

Are you prepared to keep on looking?

Yes. But there can't be any more
lies.

That's understood.

I need the truth. From all of you.

Yes. Katherine, I think you and the boys should
come and stay with me until this is over.

Charles?
Hm?

Er...yes.

What is it now, Mr Whicher?
I'm sorry to disturb you so late.

Only I have some news about the two
lascars I was looking for.

Forgive me, but when I was here last time I got
the impression that you might have seen them.

I've no idea what you're talking
about.

I'm afraid the older brother's dead,
Father.

Dead? He was found in the
river earlier this evening.

Now, I don't know
if the younger one knows already,

but if he doesn't, he should be told and
he needs to be told that he's in danger.

Because he is. Is he here, Father
John?

No, he isn't. But if I see him, I'll
try to persuade him to speak to you.

Thank you. I'll come back tomorrow if
I may?

Yes, Father.

It's all right. It's all right, I'm a
friend.

Father John might have told you my
name?

No! Go. Go, or I'll kill you!

I'm sorry about what happened to your
brother.

I promise you, that whoever killed
him will be punished.

Shore will die.
If Captain Shore is...

He has killed my brother!
He dishonours my sister!

Listen to me...

Whicher! Oh!

It's all right, it's all right.
It's not as bad as it looks.

Sister Claire, run and fetch the
nurse.

How did this happen? Was it Roshan?

Is that his name? I didn't
think he was capable of this.

He's desperate.

I need to get a message to somebody.
I'll sort that out in a minute.

It can't wait. Was his brother here?

Yes. They came in a few days ago.

But they only stopped for one night.

The older brother wanted to move on
so I showed them the alley.

She's here, Father.

The message, Father John.
Yes, of course.

Mr Whicher!

You've done this before.

I have. You needn't worry.

I went to the Crimea.

I've seen a lot worse than this.

I help out here twice a week. You're
in luck.

I'm not normally here so late.

Thank you.

You've lost a lot of blood. What you
need now is to lie down and rest.

I can't, I'm afraid. I have to go.

I had a feeling you'd say that.

Whicher. I got your message.

Any sign?

No. Not yet.

It could have taken him a while to
cross London. He's on foot.

He doesn't know the city. All the
windows are locked and shuttered.

If he tries to break in, I'll hear
him.

I don't think that's necessary.
If you don't want to be here, go.

I didn't ask you to come.

I don't intend to use it.
But I'm going to make this stop.

Do you have children?
No.

No.

So you can't understand what it feels like
when someone tries to take them from you.

They belong with me.

They're going to have a better
life...with me.

It seems strange to me... that their
mother was so willing to give them up.

You don't understand the first thing
about it.

We were one of the first regiments to
arrive in Cawnpore after the massacre.

Indians were stripping infants
before they threw them down a well.

They burnt a school with 20 children
in it.

Barred all the doors so no one could
escape.

If a child tried to climb from a
window,

they picked them off...
even as they screamed and burned.

I sometimes wonder if that's
why Katherine can't conceive.

She saw too much.

Why did you stay?

After the mutiny?

You said you wanted the truth?

The mutiny was our fault.

If you ride roughshod over
everything that matters to people...

..one day they're going to fight
back.

You have no idea
how much I loved that country.

The freedom I felt.

Once I was...clear of the Army.

Out there in the hills we lived like
kings.

No one to sensor us. No one to...

..disapprove.

I wake up some mornings and I realise
I've been back there in my dreams...

Lying in bed...

..Zeenat beside me.

Our large, white bed.

The windows are open...

..and the jasmine's coming in on the
air.

Get some light on the
place.

It's all right.

Put the knife down.

Put that knife down.

Roshan... it's all right.

Give it to me.

Whicher?

It's safe, he's not armed.

Oh, God!

What the hell are you doing?

Get me something to stop the
bleeding!

Captain Shore! Move!

We need to get a doctor fast or he
might die.

Out of the question.
No one can know about this.

We can't just cover this up.

You need to go to Scotland Yard.
No.

No, Father, we had an agreement.
If this gets out, that's it.

For God's sake, Charles!
Don't you think I know that?

It was self-defence.
It was point blank!

You could see he wasn't armed! Sir
Edward?

He shouldn't have broken in.
He was armed with a knife.

After everything that has happened
Charles's reaction was understandable.

But we need to send for a doctor.
No!

We've no choice! Do you know
anybody who can be trusted?

Come in.

A boy's been shot. He's in a bad
way.I see.

I can't explain. The people
concerned...

I just have to ask you to trust me.
Show me where he is.

Just in here. Mrs Piper is a nurse.

She has experience with bullet
wounds.

Thank you for coming.

The bullet will have to come out.

We need to boil some water.
We'll need cloths.

I have some bandages.

And light, as much light as we can
find.

Are you all right?

Will he live?

I don't know yet.

Would you be prepared to sit with
him?Yes.

We're obliged. We'll be downstairs
should you have need of us.

What are his chances?

The bullet missed his heart and
lungs so that's something.

But his breathing's strained.

We should prop him up.
Can you find me another pillow?

Yes, of course.

What are you doing in here?
We needed another pillow.

Mrs Piper...
Charlotte.

Charlotte. I have to go somewhere.

Can you stay with him?
Of course.

You can't leave him alone.

I won't leave him.

I know it's early,
but I need to speak to Miss Khan.

Miss Khan has gone.
Gone?

The maid heard the children about
half an hour ago and went in to them.

The woman's gone. Her things have
gone.

What do you know about her?

How long has she worked for the Gilbraiths?
They took her on before they sailed.

Why? I've just ordered a check of
the valuables.

She won't have taken anything.
Not from this house.

Yes? Can I help you?I need to speak
to Mrs Shore.

Mrs Shore?

Wait! You can't just barge in here!

Mr Whicher?Where are the children?
Which room?

They're along there. Why?

Why? Mr Whicher, What is it?

Mr Whicher!

Oh, no.

No, it's... No, but...

Well, that's impossible. They...

Where else can they be?

Mrs Shore?
Is there anywhere else they could be?

What on earth's going on?

Mr Whicher?The children are gone.

Gone? No, no, they must be in the
house somewhere.

I don't think so. Mrs Johnson, kindly summon
the staff so that we can search the house.

Of course, ma'am.
Wait!

Tell them not to touch any doors to
the outside. Any windows.

Not until I've had a chance to take a
look.

I think you'll find the house is
quite secure.Just tell them.

I think we need to send for Sir
Edward, and your son.

Oh.

Who's been outside this morning?
I don't know.

The kitchen maid was the only one up
apart from me. It's possible she...

Ask her if she's been outside,
please.

She didn't go out.
Right. Thank you.

Kitchen, back to work.

When did you last see them, Mrs
Shore?

Before I went to bed. About ten
o'clock.

I thought we'd be safe here.

Oh, God.

Oh, Charles.

He'll blame me for this.

He'll blame me for this as well.

Mr Whicher!

It's been forced, hasn't it?
Yes, it has.

The catch was old
and the wood's a little rotten.

We always meant to...
Georgina!

That's not possible.
They must be here somewhere.

Charles, there's no point. The latch on one
of the dining room windows has been forced.

Mr Whicher.
They left through the back door.

The garden gate is open.

That doesn't make sense.
I wish I'd heard him.

Who?
The Indian!

The one you've worried about.
It can't be him.

He's been at my house since last
night.

Sir Edward. There's something I
must tell you.What is it?

It's Zeenat. She's in London.

I spoke to her.
Zeenat?

It was before you told me the truth
about the children.

She was working as a governess
for a family under an assumed name.

When I went back to the house this
morning, she'd gone.

You bloody fool.

She must have been watching us
and seen us move the children.

Oh, my God!
You useless bloody fool.

Zeenat...
When did you realise this?

A few hours ago. I saw a
photograph in the boy's bedroom.

Why didn't you tell us?

Because I didn't want her to go
the same way as her brothers.

Because I don't believe you'll stop
at anything! Who do you think you are!

Charles!

You've cost us valuable time.

Whatever's wrong with your head,
it clouds your judgement.

This is exactly why
I threw you off the Force!

My boys. I've lost them.

If they're with their mother,
we know they won't come to any harm.

That's something.
You can't know that!

I have to go to the docks.
Charles, no!

You can't go asking around the docks
for a woman like her.

I'll go to the docks.
You? You're not needed.

I know what she looks like.
And what the children look like.

Go then!
No!

If there was anybody else I could
turn to, I would.

I'm told the Cadogan
is the next ship to sail for India.

Is she one of yours?
She is.

She sails tomorrow at three, all
being well.I'm looking for a woman.

She's travelling with two children,
they're very young.

There are no children registered to
travel.

Are you sure?I was going through the
list earlier on.

There are only 24 passengers.

Almost all are soldiers. Certainly
no children.

All right.

I wondered if you'd seen this lady?
No, sorry.

Are you sure?
Sure.

Have you seen this lady?
No, sorry.

Are you sure?
Yes.

Sorry to trouble you. Have you seen
this lady?

Have you seen this lady?

Excuse me. Have you seen this lady?
Haven't seen her.

Have you seen her?

No.

Get your filthy hands off me!

Nothing.

The more I think about it, the less likely it
seems that she would try to get them on a ship.

Not yet at least.

We should circulate
their description to every force.

That's absolutely impossible.

As soon as you do that, questions
will be asked.

The press will come to hear of it...
But we have to do it.

Don't we?

Well, surely it's better to get them
back, even if people learn the truth?

I don't understand.

Papa, I thought you'd come to care
for them?

I've seen the way you are with them.
Of course I care for them.

Caring for them is beside the point.
How can you say that?

Sir Edward will not allow the good
name of this family to be destroyed.

His career to be destroyed.

Everything he's worked for,
everything we've..

I will not allow it to happen.
They're my flesh and blood.

How is he?
There's been no change.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry I left you here
alone all day.

I'm quite all right.
They brought me up some food.

You should go home, get some rest.

You're exhausted.

I had a boy.

His name was Jonathan.

After he was born...

..my wife er... she was very low.

I never really knew why.

I don't think she did.

She was er... she was a lovely girl.

I tried to make her happy.

I should have tried harder.

Much harder.

And er...

I'd just joined the Force and er...

I was working all hours trying to
make my mark.

Trying to make a...better life for
us.

Yes.

I came home one evening and er...

..and they weren't there.

So I...I waited...

..and I went out looking for them.

It's funny how you...
you think you're going to find them.

That something's...going to lead you
to them..

some understanding, some love.

Some of the boys from the Yard
came out to help me look.

They found her...

They found her on the tracks.

The boy, he'd um...

..he'd been thrown clear.

But the fall must have um...

..must have killed him.

I'm sorry.

Don't.

Erm... It was just erm...

It was just the searching.
Of course.

It's all right.

I don't want to cause any trouble.
I just want my children.

The children?

The children aren't here.
Please don't lie to me.

Which room are they in? They're my
children. No matter what you've been told.

Mrs Shore, it's all right.

It's all right.
Where are my children, Katherine?

Zeenat, the children disappeared from
their grandparents' house yesterday.

We thought it was you that had taken
them.

Roshan...?

No, it wasn't Roshan.

Zeenat, Roshan's been injured.

He's lying in that room across the
hall.What?

Come with me and I'll show you.

His pulse is strong.
I think he's going to be all right.

I swear to God, tell me where my
children are.

She doesn't know where they are.
Put the gun down.

What in God's name...?
Where are my children?

I don't know. Why would I know?
You stole them from me.

Who's got them?
No one!

Put the gun down, Charles. Did you
tell him he could take the children?

No. I would never have told him
that.

Is that what he told you? I didn't even know
he was leaving India. He kept it from me.

Shut up! Shut up!

And then, when I realised at the last
moment, he locked me in a cellar.

He didn't even let me say goodbye.
Is this true?

So you sent your brothers to hunt me
down!I couldn't stop them.

You dishonoured me. You know what
this means to my family.

No!I swear to God I'll do it! Tell
me where they are!

She doesn't know.
Stop this!

Don't, Father!
Charles.

You know what they do to women in my
village whose husbands abandon them?

Did you really not care?

Asim expected me to shut myself
away.

Never see the sun again.

Is that really what you wanted for
me?GEORGINA: Husband?

You're married?
No.

Yes! We're married.
It wasn't a marriage.

He followed me back to my village.
He begged my father for my...

It wasn't a marriage! You stood
there, in front of all those people.

In front of Allah, and you made
vows.

Do you really think my father would
just let me go to you like a prostitute?

You loved me.

You love me.

Where are my children, Zeenat?

And when he brought her out from
England...

..I let her share our lives.

And then...I let her share our
children.

And this...

this is how you repay me?

Well, now I know.

You have no honour...no honesty.

You're a liar and a coward.

Charles! Wait!

For God's sake, you were a soldier! To
aim your gun at a defenceless woman!

I wasn't going to fire. And I was never
a soldier. That was your dream, remember?

I thought I'd reached the limits of
the shame I could feel on your account.

Really? I think your shame is boundless.
Who else could have taken the children?

No one.She must have had someone
with her.

Another brother.
No!

She'd tell me the truth. Even now,
even after everything I've done.

It might have been what Katherine wanted,
but it was me who took her children from her.

me who locked her in that cellar.

I'm paying for it now.

I'm paying for it now.

I've been trying to work out who else could
have possibly got the children from the house

without any kind of commotion.

Those poor children,
they must be very frightened.

Very confused.

Yes.

Did you see this?

They were obviously happier in
India.

They belong there.

Perhaps, whoever took them...

..thought they were doing
what was best for them.

They have a mother who loves them.

Who's risked her life to be with
them.

We'll have to go to the police.
If I go to Commissioner Mayne...

How can we? We can't.

There's no need. I know where the
children are.

Because I took them.

Mrs Johnson knows a woman who said
she would take them to India for me.

To an orphanage.
A very good orphanage apparently,

where there are lots of children
like them.

How many times did I write
and tell you not to bring them here?

They don't belong...in this family.

Those boys may look white enough
now,

but who's to say what they'll look
like in ten years' time?

You and Katherine might still have children
of your own. Have you thought of that?

What a burden those boys would be to
you then.

Where are my grandchildren,
Georgina?

The woman's taking them to France
and sailing on from there.

They're getting a train to Dover.
At what time?

Seven.

James! William!

William! James!
Boys!

Come here!
James! William!

Mama!
Oh!

Oh!

Oh, my boys!

I've missed you.
Boys.

We've missed you.

No!

James... Come here. No!

William.

Zeenat?
Yes?

If you'll agree to return to India,
we'll pay you a monthly sum.

You don't have to return to your village. You
can write to the boys as often as you like.

After everything that has
happened...

..you think you can buy my children
from me?

No. No.

We... No, we just have to find a way
to put this behind us.

For the boys' sake. Get on with our
lives.

That won't be possible. Not yet.
There's a body in the morgue.

There's a young man lying upstairs,
shot through the chest.

Charles, I'm going to have to take
you to Scotland Yard.

What? Papa?

You're not serious?

I didn't kill Asim Jabour.
Then you can mount a defence.

But I think, and I'm sure Mr Whicher agrees,
that there are charges to be answered.

We cannot set ourselves above the
law.Papa. Papa, please.

He has to account for what he's
done.

Charles...
It's all right.

I've made my mistakes, God knows.

If only you'd shown a little more
faith in me.

Sent me out some money when I needed
it. The business wasn't dead.

It wasn't. Not yet.

I could've started again...
And failed again.

That's all you see when you look at
me, isn't it? A failure.

Go and say goodbye to your boys.

We'll go to the Yard together.

Forgive me.

But I thought you'd want to know,
Roshan is awake.

Your shoulder. Sorry.

It's fine. It'll be fine.

Captain Shore, he's going to be
arrested for what he did to you.

And on suspicion of murdering your
brother.

There will be justice.

Mr Whicher...

Charles didn't kill Asim.

Why do you say that?
I met my brothers at the docks.

It was the night we planned to take
the boys.

But then Asim said something
and I realised he was going to...

..he was going to kill Charles.

Pratihinsa.

We were on the quay.

We were arguing. Asim was shaking
me.

Roshan... was trying to pull him
off.

I don't know where the men came from. One
of them hit Asim with something heavy.

The others tried to grab Roshan,
but he ran away.

I managed to hide.

I saw them take Asim's money,
and then they took his gold amulet.

The one he wore always around his
neck.

Then they pushed him into the water.

One of the men, I saw his face.
I knew him from the ship.

A sailor.
Can you describe him to me?

Red hair. He had red hair.

Here!

Scotland Yard.
Sir Edward!

I'll see that the man is arrested.
There may be other evidence against him.

With luck you may not have to
testify.Thank you.

You should have gone to the police
at once.

How could I? Without making...

We didn't come here for any of this.

Sir Edward, that only leaves the
matter of the shooting.

I want... I forgive.

Hm?

I forgive.
He wants what I want.

Nothing more.

I should never have forced him to
come back.

When the business failed, I told him
if we didn't go home, I'd go alone.

I threatened him with scandal.

I just wanted...a fresh start.

Without her.

A chance to be a normal family.

That's understandable.

Now I've lost everything.

Do you believe in life after death,
Mr Whicher?

I wish I could.

The police have charged the ship's
carpenter.

They found the weapon he used to
strike Asim.

They found this.

They want to know if you can identify
it?

Asim.

I should have...tried to pull him
out.

I should have called for help.

I should have done something more,
but I was too afraid.

None of this is your fault.

Don't take guilt upon yourself.

It's a heavy weight to carry.

Thank you.

Thank you, Mr Whicher, for
everything.

I shall never forget your kindness.

Hello.
Hello.

Are you going to the Strangers'
Home?Yes, for a few hours.

The money's where you left it, Mr
Whicher.

I didn't allow myself to become
involved in something so...dubious

in the hope of financial gain.

I know that. I know.

But I...

It just didn't seem right that I
should be paid and you shouldn't.

Mrs Piper...

If you'd like me to give notice,
if you'd rather I left, I understand.

You must...you must do what you want
to do.

Now, darlings.

You're going to go on a very
exciting adventure.

Come here.

I love you both.

Come with me.

Go and wait over there.

Come along, boys.

Take care.

Bye, Grandpa! I wonder if
I'll ever see them again?

I'll pay for their schooling.
Charles will visit.

And when they're old enough, they'll
decide where they want to be.

I think you've seen us at our worst,
Mr Whicher.

It's been a difficult time, for
everyone.

You were wrong, you know,
about Commissioner Mayne.

I've never heard anyone speak
so highly about any officer.

After the business in Wiltshire, he
thought you would recover given time.

Suggested you be given another
chance.

It was I...

I needed a scapegoat.
Government always does.

Come and see me on Monday and we'll see
about getting your job back on the Force.

They need men like you.

No, sir.

Thank you.

But I think I work best on my own.

Thank you, Charlotte.

Survivors.
