1
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:05,400
The killer lives among us.

2
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,760
He's targeting men
between the ages of 16 and 30,

3
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,000
and he's doing so
with the use of this.

4
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:15,720
Philly.
Monica?

5
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:18,400
You didn't leave the Burning Light,
did you? They left you.

6
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:20,400
Another?
This kid managed to escape.

7
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:26,440
Tammy, you have got to stop
your obsession with this.

8
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:28,320
So, Jason was taken from in here.

9
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,840
And a few years ago now,
I found him down by the loch with...

10
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:37,280
hosepipe looped through the window,
engine still running.

11
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,480
'The victims were forced
to ingest these stones.'

12
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,800
Should've left you years ago.
Stop it! Stop it! The pair of you.

13
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:48,480
You see this? It's a warning.

14
00:00:48,480 --> 00:00:51,080
Whoever did this to Jason,
he's coming back.

15
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,800
'Please do not let him find us.'

16
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:55,160
This man is weak.

17
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:59,640
He lures his victims into traps,
and then he incapacitates them.

18
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:05,360
Above all else,
he is, at his core, a coward.

19
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,240
CRAWFORD:
Get on to that now.

20
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:44,520
Here. Female victim.
Wild, wild deviation of his MO.

21
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,920
Monica, you know her. Who is she?

22
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:49,560
Philly Murray.

23
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,800
Does Philly have any next of kin?
Family?

24
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,040
She has a daughter. No-one else.

25
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:57,960
We'll get the family liaison
onto it.

26
00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,360
It's not that simple.

27
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,680
Is that because she's got
the same mark on her arm as you?

28
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,520
Her daughter's with
the Burning Light, then.

29
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,480
So you went
beyond investigating them.

30
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,600
You were one of them too.

31
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,240
I was worse. I recruited Philly.

32
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,160
That mark on her arm, that was me.
I branded her.

33
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,800
Father of Philly's child -
he's Lucy's, too.

34
00:02:29,920 --> 00:02:33,840
If it wasn't for you saying so,
I'd say this is not his work.

35
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:35,760
The gender, clothed...

36
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:39,520
Staging, yes, dramatic,
but the kill, it was efficient.

37
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,520
He said, "This one's for you."

38
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,320
What do you mean?
He's taunting me.

39
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:50,080
Wait, you... you spoke to him?
This was a gesture.

40
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,200
He thinks I'm like him
but could never be him.

41
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,800
Whatever sick connection he feels
towards you, it's not on you.

42
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:58,880
He's a psychopath.

43
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,360
Who I provoked and is now killing
people in my orbit.

44
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,440
So you think this one's
about you, right?

45
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,240
This is personal.

46
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,120
I need to get my family safe.

47
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,040
I mean, will it be for long?

48
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,800
I mean, I need my tablets,
I need my own clothes.

49
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,720
Mum...
Is it because
of what you said on television?

50
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,360
Have you made him angry?

51
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,000
Maybe. Yes.

52
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,120
Maybe I've set him on a path
to killing everyone I know.

53
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:38,440
And... I do love you,
and I want to make sure you're safe.

54
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,720
ANGELA TUTS
Monica.

55
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,000
You know that...

56
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,600
Oh, it's... OK.

57
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:47,800
We'll finish this later.

58
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,320
I'll just get on
with Lucy's packing. Thanks.

59
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,080
You wanted to show me something?
Highly likely I'll be stood down.

60
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,720
When did you gather all this?

61
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,400
Oh, can I...?
Yeah.

62
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,520
What's a "baytle"?

63
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,600
Er, baetyl.
From classical mythology.

64
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,280
Stones of divine power.

65
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,240
I think he's creating his own myth.

66
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,080
Well, this is from Plotinus.

67
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,520
Same fella as this rabbit quote?
Yeah.

68
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,640
"He who is awake
in the intelligible world

69
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,320
"sleeps in the sensible one."

70
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,400
Think of it as...

71
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,840
there are two kinds of selves
within us.

72
00:04:33,840 --> 00:04:36,200
Our killer has two sides.

73
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:40,480
Yes, and his true self
emerges at night.

74
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,280
And that's how he wants
to be recognised -

75
00:04:42,280 --> 00:04:43,600
the myth, not the man.

76
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,280
He's piecing together other
people's stories to tell his own.

77
00:04:47,280 --> 00:04:49,480
He lacks the imagination
to do it all himself.

78
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,680
He's clever, yes,
but he's frustrated.

79
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,120
He thinks he should be bigger,
better...

80
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,880
living a less mediocre existence.

81
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:02,440
So your average civil servant, then.

82
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,600
You might not be far wrong.

83
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,800
Point being, he's someone
we'd walk past in the street

84
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:09,120
and not look twice at.

85
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:10,720
Might already have.
Oh.

86
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,680
PHONE BUZZES

87
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:13,920
All right, Dunc?

88
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,440
MOUTHS
Yes.

89
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,920
Yes. Erm, right, I'll see you soon.

90
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,120
We just got a hit on CCTV.

91
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,120
GREGG:
'Burner phone untraceable.'

92
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,760
But... we got this.

93
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,840
Car reg not clear,
but got him in all his glory.

94
00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:43,280
Bet it won't be
the last image either.

95
00:05:43,280 --> 00:05:46,600
Joys of modern community -
forever snooping on each other.

96
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,600
Removing, his time in, time out,
direction of travel.

97
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:51,800
DOOR CLOSES

98
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,320
Lucy, hop into your seat for me.
Clip her in, will you?

99
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:55,920
ANGELA:
Of course.

100
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,320
LUCY:
Seatbelts keep us safe,
Grandma.

101
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,120
We've got you secure accommodation,
hundred miles out west.

102
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,320
We've got him on CCTV.
We'll have his vehicle tracked.

103
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:05,600
This is a major lead.

104
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,440
I've emailed you the address.
Need to make a stop first.

105
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,520
Mum needs her prescription
and clothes.

106
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:11,800
It's the opposite direction.

107
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,360
Gregg can take her
and then drop her off.
No.

108
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:15,640
Trust me.

109
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,400
Yeah, all right.
Dunc?

110
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,480
Lovely Angela needs to collect
a few things, right?

111
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,760
Can you take her
and then head to the safe house?

112
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,520
GREGG:
Yeah, I can do that.

113
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,920
I'll run you home.
We'll catch them up.

114
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:32,440
Let me take your bag.

115
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,520
I'll let you ride shotgun.
Thank you.

116
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,880
Starsky and Hutch.
GREGG CHUCKLES

117
00:06:44,280 --> 00:06:46,800
CAT PURRS

118
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,440
PHONE RINGS

119
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:16,280
Yes?

120
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,960
Hi. Is that Michael Bach?

121
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,720
Yes.
'Hi, this is Kyle Ward.'

122
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:22,880
I'm headmaster at...

123
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,720
'I know.
I'm due to see you on Monday.'

124
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,160
Yeah, about that.

125
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,480
Erm, I am getting flooded with calls

126
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,760
from concerned parents
and the school board

127
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,360
about your colleague James.

128
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,520
And his paperwork is a disgrace.

129
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,320
'I can't make head nor tail of it.'
Hm.

130
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,360
Well, that's no surprise.
'Were you aware of James...?'

131
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,880
That's not what I said.
Look, why are you calling?

132
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,080
Oh, I was hoping that you would want

133
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,600
to rip the plaster off
as soon as possible.

134
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,440
'You mean discuss this now?'
The sooner we're on top of it...

135
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,400
No, it's really...
not the best time.

136
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:58,880
Erm...

137
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:04,320
Er... look, Michael. Bluntly...

138
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,520
My daughter is distressed.

139
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,040
'She was close
with one of the victims,

140
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,760
'and I suspect she's not the only
pupil having sleepless nights.'

141
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,520
If you and I
can decipher this chaos,

142
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,560
we might even be able
to help the police.

143
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,720
'Put everyone's minds at ease.'

144

MICHAEL SIGHS

145
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,720
Where are you?
'About 20 minutes away.

146
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,600
'I was about to take Tammy out
for the day,

147
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,200
'try to distract her a bit.

148
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,520
'We could stop by.'
Fine.

149
00:08:38,560 --> 00:08:39,920
Just be a minute, Lucy.

150
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,200
We're doing our best
to have a media blackout.

151
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,640
I've got to protect
the investigation, Monica.

152
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,360
I'm off the case.
You're replacing me as SIO.

153
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:54,800
You not fighting me?

154
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:57,720
Well, my career can wait.

155
00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,480
And...

156
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,320
..the only reason
he knew about Philly

157
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,800
was because I lured him
to the Burning Light.

158
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,920
Did you know she was there?
That's not the point.

159
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:10,960
It is the point.

160
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,920
Less than 24 hours ago,
you saved her life.

161
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,600
I didn't catch him.
And I won't now, will I?

00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,560
How long is this gonna take?
Pieces of string, darling.

165
00:10:13,560 --> 00:10:15,760
That could mean hours, knowing you.

166
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,640
Fine. Come inside too.

167
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,320
No greater ticking clock
than an impatient daughter.

168
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:51,560
Kyle.

169
00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:54,080
You must be Tammy.

170
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,920
You got any cat allergies?

171
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,440
No.
Is there anywhere
we could do this privately?

172
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,840
I've got my headphones.
I know you're not a snooper.

173
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,560
Regardless, your peers' privacy.

174
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:17,960

175
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,320
CAT MEOWS
Have a seat.

176
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,640
It's a really nice place
you have here.

177
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,600
Quiet, out of the way.
Yeah. Yeah, it's all right.

178
00:11:48,560 --> 00:11:51,720
So, er... James.

179
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,400
Sorry, could I trouble you
for a glass of water, please?

180
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,640
I'm just a little dry.

181
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:00,440
So much for a quick chat, eh?

182
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:03,880
Yeah. Yeah, fine.

183
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,000
CAT MEOWS

184
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,640
Ch, ch, ch, ch, ch, ch!

185
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:19,280
Fair enough.

SHE GASPS

187

You must travel far and wide
in your role.

188
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,160
Yeah. Planet doesn't love
my mileage.

189
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,600
James was a firm believer
in the office.

190
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,440
And it shows. Chaos.

191
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,200
In all my years
spent in education and outreach,

192
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,000
I've learnt the only way
we truly help

193
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:48,920
is by building
a personal connection.

194
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,600
Hold that thought.

195
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,280
This room is private.
Sorry.

196
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,120
There's a cat.

197
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,160
Aye, but it's long gone.
Tammy?

198
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,000

00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:21,560
That's right.

202
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:24,640
What about him?

203
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,040
What's all this?

He's taken Tammy, Monica!

00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:52,640
Kyle?
'He had a mask!'

212
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:53,760
A mask?

213
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,000
Oh, God, I'm dizzy.

214
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,520
Kyle, did you say a mask?

215
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:01,000
Can you hear me?

216
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,960
It's Michael Bach. It's him.

217
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:05,600
He attacked me.

218
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:07,960
Kyle, I need to call my colleagues.

Monica! He's taken Tammy.

243
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,400
She's not here. My girl, she's gone.

244
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,280
I tried calling her,
but no reception.

245
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,160
Kyle, slow down.
And then the line went dead.

246
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:24,240
He's cut the phone line.

247
00:17:26,360 --> 00:17:29,000
Where are your colleagues?
They said he'd be 20 minutes.

248
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,760
Then they'll be here soon.
Wait, so it's just you?

249
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:33,920
OK, look at me.
You've lost a lot of blood.

250
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,520
No, we need to find Tammy.

251
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,560
The more information I can obtain,
the quicker we can act. OK?

252
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:40,320
We need to stop that bleeding.

253
00:17:52,120 --> 00:17:53,920
Press this against it for now.

254
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,440
Kyle, I need you to talk me through
what happened.

255
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,400
The last thing...

256
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,680
We were in the room with the photos.
What photos?

257
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:15,640
You need to see it.

258
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,080
Tammy started to ask
all these questions about the boys,

259
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:26,440
what this meant.

260
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:32,400
And then Michael just went for me,
and everything went blurry.

261
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,240
Have you touched anything?
That's my blood.

262
00:18:36,360 --> 00:18:40,400
Aside from the struggle.
The photos, drawers, files?

263
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,120
You said he had a mask?

264
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,080
I was on the floor,

265
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,760
and he took it from...

266
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:57,760
What did it look like?

267
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:02,280
Er, terrifying.

268
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:03,520

269
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:07,040
I don't know. I think I passed out.

270
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,040
Why were you here?
Here?

271
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,240
At Michael's house.

272
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,080
Oh, God.

273
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,080
This is my fault.

274
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,080
He was my new
school liaison officer.

275
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:29,520
And after James, I wanted to get
a grip on all the paperwork,

276
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,280
so I imposed ourselves upon him.

277
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,280
I forced Tammy to come.

278
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:42,600
Was his car here when you arrived?
Green Land Rover?

279
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,240
I think so.

280
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,200

No, just... 20 minutes, they said.

285
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,520
I made tea for some reason.

286
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,240
I thought it might calm...

287
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,840
I'll check the rest of the property

My daughter's life is in peril

296
00:21:24,120 --> 00:21:27,080
because you provoked him,
mocked him,

297
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:30,400
claimed he was unintelligent,
uneducated.

298
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,280
Yes, that's true.

299
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:36,440
Well, you made him adapt. Change.

300
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,200
That's intelligence.

301
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,560

Yes.

00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:10,840
Shit!

323
00:24:24,120 --> 00:24:25,680
You OK, Monica?

324
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,320
Peppermint tea?

325
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,280
With a little twist.

326
00:24:50,120 --> 00:24:51,160
How long have I got?

327
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:53,600
Three sips.

328
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,160
Two minutes, maybe less.

329
00:25:02,120 --> 00:25:03,160
Oh.

330
00:25:05,360 --> 00:25:09,600
Let's find you somewhere to sit.

331
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,960
It's not long
till my favourite part begins.

332
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,440
CRAWFORD COUGHS,
WHEEZES

333
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,560
What the fuck?
HE COUGHS

334
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:29,680
BANGING

335
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,000
HE GRUNTS

336
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:38,720
HE PANTS

337
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:41,560
Shit.

338
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,760
Tammy! Tammy!

339
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,840
There we go.

340
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:49,720
All comfy?

341
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:54,760
Why?

342
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,840
Why?
Why? Your own daughter?

343
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,120
I didn't want this, Monica.

344
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,640
This is not the way
today was supposed to go. No.

345
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:15,280
Today was about framing Michael,

346
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,680
planting little evidential seeds.

347
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:21,200
He's the perfect scapegoat,
with his access to young men.

348
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:25,080
But then Tammy blew
the whole thing apart. Clever girl.

349
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:27,560
She figured me out.

350
00:26:30,120 --> 00:26:32,160
This is the kindest thing for her.

351
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:33,880
ENGINE THRUMS

352
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,120
CRAWFORD COUGHS,
WHEEZES

353
00:26:38,120 --> 00:26:39,800
GLASS SMASHES

354
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,680
I used to fear the split
within myself.

355
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,240
But after my wife died, I looked,

356
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,960
truly looked within myself.

357
00:27:12,360 --> 00:27:13,840
Her death liberated me.

358
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:16,560
Doting father.

359
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:21,400
Tammy provided the perfect cover
for me to indulge my true self.

360
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,240
DROWSILY: How would...?

361
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:35,840
Oh, don't worry. Much less dramatic.

362
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:39,640
More in keeping with Michael,
his family history.

363
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,720
You three, in his car, by the loch.

364
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,480
Just like his dad.

365
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,840
Come on. Come on.
Tammy, Tammy, come on.

366
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,080
Come on, come on.
There you are. Come on.

367
00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:58,600
SHE COUGHS VIOLENTLY

368
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:02,160
There's a good girl, that's it.
Good girl, take a breath.

369
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,000
There you are. Get it out of you.

370
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:05,400
SHE COUGHS,
SPLUTTERS

371
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,880
That's it. That's it, that's it,
it's all right.

372
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,680
It's all right, it's all right.
SHE CRIES OUT

373
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:11,720
It's all right.

374
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:17,880
Not long now, Monica.

375
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,360
And then I'll carry you down
to join the others,

376
00:28:22,360 --> 00:28:24,000
and it'll all be over.

377
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,600
This is my favourite part.

378
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:33,400
Watching.

379
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:39,920
As the life
and all its dreams, hopes...

380
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,560
..potential fades away.

381
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:49,320
One of the tragedies of my job
is seeing potential squandered.

382
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,200
Young men
with everything ahead of them,

383
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,440
yet such a tragic lack of vision.

384
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,680
I give them a chance
to do better in the next life.

385
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,400
I send them off with wishing stones.

386
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,880
Maybe that's why Philly
was so unsatisfying.

387
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,560
She had so little left.

388
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,600
All quashed by you, Monica.

389
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,200
I did what you couldn't.
I ended her life.

390
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,480
COUGHING,
WHEEZING

391
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,040
Michael? Michael!

392
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:53,640
You're gonna rot inside
for what you did.

393
00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,760
Get fucking off me!

394
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,120
You're going nowhere.
Where's Kennedy?

395
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,520
Let go! Let him go!
What?

396
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:05,840
It's not him!

397
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:10,400
It's my dad. He attacked us.
SHE COUGHS

398
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,160
They'll write you off as a failure.

399
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,480
How could she have been so troubled

400
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,800
that she couldn't see there was
a killer before her all along?

401
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,120
How many lives she could have s...

402
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,120
..have saved.

403
00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:03,320
Clever. You swapped the mugs.

404
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:10,080
By my count, that's three sips
compared to my one.

405
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,000
All units, officer in distress!

406
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,440
LABOURED BREATHING

407
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,320
You mistook my guilt for weakness.

408
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:06,560
Lucy!

409
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,720
There are lots of cats over here.

410
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:15,000
Yes, I think there's lots more
outside. Just hold me tight.

411
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,440
LABOURED BREATHING

412
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:41,080
Lucy, I love you.
Mummy needs a minute.

413
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:45,760
Thank God!

414
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,600
Tammy and Michael are alive.
Is Ward?

415
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:57,280
OK.

416
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,320
Are you all right, Monica?

417
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:04,960
I think she might have seen me.

418
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:07,760
What if she did? What if...?

419
00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,840
Hey. Hey.

420
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:14,200
Hey.

421
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:19,360
Go to Lucy.

422
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:22,520
I'll deal with them.

423
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:26,800
Sorry.

424
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:29,960
It's a crime scene now.

425
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,040
CRAWFORD
CLEARS THROAT

426
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,240
Control, we have one deceased...
Hey.

427
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,000
SHE SOBS
You're OK, you're OK.

428
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:46,720
It's OK.

429
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:21,080

How could you stoop so low?

430
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,040

BELL CHIMES

431
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,440


432
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,360

Oh, oh

433
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,040


434
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,240


435
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:38,320
STEPHEN:
That song...

436
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,600
..I'll be honest,
it used to drive me mad.

437
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:49,080
"Rob, that's not real music!
This is real music."

438
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,800
And I'd bung on some Paul Weller
as a counter.

439
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:55,560
I know, typical dad behaviour.
I'm sorry.

440
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,000
But now? That song now?

441
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:02,440
It does nothing but make me smile.

442
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,600
We have to cherish the time we had

443
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,840
with the young people
that were taken from us.

444
00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:13,320
Because it's too easy
to let grief win...

445
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,200
..to think about what we've lost
and not gained.

446
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:25,080
Because my son Rob Wright was
the kindest, most beautiful soul.

447
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,000
And we're so lucky
to have known him.

448
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:36,280
And that's what must win - the joy.

449
00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,880
The smiles that he put
on his friends' faces.

450
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:56,160
TAMMY HYPERVENTILATES
Tammy? Hey.

451
00:35:56,160 --> 00:36:00,040
Hey. You're having a panic attack.
You're having a panic attack.

452
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:04,840
You're OK. You're OK.
Breathe, breathe.

453
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,040
Look at me. This will pass.

454
00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:12,480
He was at our house.
It was a few months ago.

455
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,120
Tammy, who?
I thought I was dreaming.

456
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:15,920
I thought it was just part
of the nightmares.

457
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,800
I wasn't supposed to know,
I was supposed to be in bed, but...

458
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:22,120
They argued.

459
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:26,200
Dad sent him away, told me
it was part of his outreach work.

460
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,520
Who was it?
Tammy, who was in your house?

461
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,000
I saw his photo on Michael's wall.

462
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:35,840
Jason's brother.

463
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:40,440
Dad knew him. Something was wrong,
it just felt wrong.

464
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:43,320
Nichol?

465
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:32,400
It's just you?

466
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:34,480
It is.

467
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:39,440
We were easy to find?

468
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:46,320
You didn't change your name, Nichol.
I think you wanted to be found.

469
00:37:52,720 --> 00:37:54,200
Is Ward really dead?

470
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:58,200
EXHALES HEAVILY

471
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,040
Was he kind to begin?

472
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:04,160
It wasn't kindness
I was looking for.

473
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,960
Did he give you
what you didn't have at home?

474
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,000
I had so much hate in me.

475
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,760
Barclay... pushed me out
of my own family, and...

476
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:17,640
..Jason was everything to him.

477
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:20,920
Ward...

478
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,920
..he told me stories of revenge...

479
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,520
..of stones that granted wishes.

480
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,240
Black stones?

481
00:38:30,240 --> 00:38:33,160
I heard that,
and I made that my dream.

482
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,160
And all I ever wanted
was my mum to love me.

483
00:38:39,240 --> 00:38:40,400
Then Ward...

484
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:45,600
..got darker, dripping darker ideas.

485
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,880
The only way to hurt Barclay
is to hurt Jason, and....

486
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,800
You were hurt, angry.

487
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:54,720
He groomed you, Nichol.

488
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,320
What did he ask you to do?
I left phones for them.

489
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:04,160
I watched them,
and I reported on them.

490
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:07,360
He killed them with my help.
That is not being groomed!

491
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,520
Like, what the fuck am I?
But you stopped.

492
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,480
Was it after Owen? Before Scott?

493
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:18,480
You're not a killer.
No.

494
00:39:19,720 --> 00:39:23,080
No, no, you don't understand.
Nichol, I do.

495
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:25,680
No...
Loneliness, anger,

496
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:28,520
they are gateways for the malicious
to twist and exploit.

497
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,240
No, don't excuse my actions!

498
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,360
Your mother chose you.

499
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,400
If only she knew. Hm?

500
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,280
He was my brother.
Yes.

501
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,600
My brother, and...
Nichol.

502
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,160
You've got handcuffs, right?
Yes.

503
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,720
Then cuff me. Put them on me.
I can't whilst you're holding that.

504
00:40:07,720 --> 00:40:10,400
No, p-please. Monica, please.

505
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,680
I can't do this any more.
I can't run.

506
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:14,360
Please, just make it stop.

507
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:27,840
HE SOBS SOFTLY

508
00:40:40,720 --> 00:40:41,800
Thanks.

509
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:44,640
Hi.

510
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,880
There was a memorial
for Jason and Rob.
Mm-hm.

511
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:53,720
Barclay was there.

512
00:40:53,720 --> 00:40:56,680
We do shut soon.
Stephen organised it.

513
00:40:59,240 --> 00:41:00,520
Please don't say his name.

514
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:14,640
Nichol's in my car.
Your car?

515
00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:20,440
Why?
I came to find him.

516
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:25,480
We... We just want a fresh start.

517
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:28,600
He asked me to put him in handcuffs.
Handcuffs?

518
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:31,680
Did you?

519
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:36,720
We've kept investigating Kyle Ward's
history, how he operated.

520
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:42,280
He manipulated and groomed
a lot of people.

521
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:47,440
Not only those whose lives he took,
those he needed in other ways.

522
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:53,320
We suspected he hadn't worked alone.
We were right.

523
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:55,120
I really do need to lock up.

524
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:57,280
Nichol told me
he can't live with the guilt.

525
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:04,240
BETHANY SIGHS

526
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:09,240
He's not carrying it alone.

527
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:16,160
I chose a man who hated my son.

528
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:19,320
If I'd been...

529
00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:22,800
..stronger and a better mother...

530
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:24,520
Do you really believe that?

531
00:42:28,720 --> 00:42:30,720
I just...

532
00:42:30,720 --> 00:42:34,680
TEARFULLY:
I just want to give
Nichol the love he deserves.

533
00:42:37,240 --> 00:42:39,120
That's what we mothers try to do.

534
00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,040
Justice can set people free.

535
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:17,280
It's just a... a little something.

536
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:22,680
Is it a puppy?
Silly Granny. Puppies bark.

537
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:24,400
Oh!
ANGELA CHUCKLES

538
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:28,880
Thank you, Crawford.
Aw, pal.

539
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:30,200
Put it under the tree, darling.

540
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:39,000
Here, I... I didn't know
you had any plans. I'll get going.

541
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:42,000
Oh, Connor, don't you fancy
Winter Wonderland with us?

542
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:43,560
I can just see you on the dodgems.

543
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:45,880
Aye, he's more
of a teacups kind of man.

544
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:48,360
I do love the teacups,
to be fair, so...

545
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:50,640
THEY LAUGH

546
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:53,280
Oh!
HE LAUGHS

547
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:55,120
Piggyback, Crawford?

548
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,880
Well, if you're offering.
Would be rude to refuse.

549
00:43:57,880 --> 00:43:59,840
OK, you ready?
No!

550
00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:01,400
What? Oh, I'm sorry?

551
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:04,160
You want ME to do
all the hard work, do you? Oh!

552
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:06,000
Right, OK.
He's silly, Mummy.

553
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:07,520
That's one word for him.

554
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:10,280
CRAWFORD LAUGHS,
GIBBERS

555
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:13,920
LUCY LAUGHS
'Ey, another jump.

556
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:15,400
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
LUCY SHRIEKS

557
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,360
LUCY AND CRAWFORD
LAUGH

558
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,880
Are you all right?
You watch your back.

559
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:36,440
Horsey ready, Granny ready.
Are you ready, Mummy?

560
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:46,520
