- No!

- Don't do this.

- Hello.

- Hello, Smokey.

- Are you hungry?

Hang on.

- There.

- Smokey!

- Smokey!

- That is not like him.

- Smokey.

Smokey!

- Smoke.

Peter!

- I can't believe it's been 5 years

5 years since we were both been here.

Nervous, excited

- Sunburned.

- I was sat right here,

Right here with a book so you would know it was me.

Do you remember?

- You mean this book?

- You do remember.

- How could I ever forget?

You make me so happy.

I can't imagine my life without you.

I don't want to imagine my life without you.

- Yes! Yes! Yes!

Yes!

- I had a whole speech prepared and everything.

- There's no way.

- I can do that.

- You are not going to get the water from there.

- I can do that. I can do that.

I bet you...

I bet you a drink

- Two shots.

- Two shots. - Two shots.

- Two shots.

- Mm-hmm

- And that's a fail.

- That went all the way.

That has, that's made it.

- Oh, it was, it was such a good effort.

- I think that actually got to the far side.

- You're so cute.

No, no, no. It did.

I don't need that. I don't need that.

- What's wrong?

Hey, I know when something's bothering you.

- I just can't seem to shake feeling nervous,

even now, that's all.

- Do you know that guy?

- No, he just, just looked familiar.

Hey, can you believe it?

We're actually doing this.

You and me.

Husband and wife.

- It's insane.

- I just wish my parents were alive for it.

Have I ever told you about my uncle?

Uncle Aidan?

- No.

- I wasn't planning on inviting him to the wedding,

but he's the only family I have left.

I've not spoken to him since the funeral.

- You haven't spoken to him in 20 years.

- Well, well it does still hurts like it was yesterday.

- What did he do?

- When my parents died he decided to put me in to care

instead of adopting me.

I was bounced around 7 different homes,

sometimes with 6 of us squeezed into one tiny room,

while he just sat back and drank wine in his mansion.

I lost everything.

- Are you sure you want this guy back in your life?

- You know, it's been a long time and he's all I have left.

It might be time to mend a bridge or two.

- I mean, that would be great, Leo.

- Why don't we go up there today?

- Now?

- Yeah, why not?

You've got the week off work.

- I haven't packed anything.

- I'll pack for you.

- What has gotten into you lately?

- Well, you always said you wished I was more spontaneous.

Look, I just want to get away for a bit.

Even if it is just Oakwood House.

- Oakwood House?

That's very fancy.

- Yeah, the man's been sitting on a gold mine for decades,

but you won't get a penny out of him.

He'd rather his wealth rot than do any good for anyone.

- What does he do?

- His company developed tech for the military.

That's all he'd ever tell us.

- Man of mystery.

What is it with your family and keeping secrets?

- So, yes?

Look, it's a change of scenery and it's just for a little bit.

- Okay.

Okay, fine.

Oakwood House.

- You must be the lovely Lexie.

- That's me.

- We haven't met before, have we?

- No, but it's great to finally meet you, Aidan.

- Yes.

Yes.

You must be Leo.

- Yeah.

Hello, uncle.

Not changed that much, have I?

- No, no.

Since my accident, my memory's gone a bit.

Must be strange being back here after all these years.

- The accident?

- Yes.

Yes...

There's a car crash two years ago.

It's my fault driving too fast and didn't have a seatbelt on.

But I can't remember anything or anyone

from my life before that day.

- I'm sorry to hear that.

- Luckily, I'd spoken about you to my carer, Freya

over the years and

it became clear how lonely I was.

I was desperate to find you.

It appears we didn't finish on the best of terms.

And even though the odds were against me,

here you are, Leo.

And...

I can't find the words to say how happy I am you called.

- You have a beautiful place.

- Let me show you around.

- Yes.

Gentleman.

- Be careful of this step.

Well, you'll be able to do it easily,

but it's a bit of a challenge for me.

Here we go.

Now, this is the main entrance.

- I forgot how cold this place can get.

- Thank you Freya, that was delicious.

- So as you might have guessed,

there's a pretty important reason why

we came down there today.

- We have some pretty exciting news.

- You two are getting married, aren't you?

- Well how did you know?

- No nephew of mine would be stupid enough not to lock down

such a wonderful young lady and at the earliest opportunity.

So, have you got a date and a venue booked?

- Not yet.

- Well, you absolutely must have the ceremony here

on the grounds.

It would be incredible.

- I've had my heart set on a castle since I was little.

It's not far from here, actually.

- You have changed.

You were never the generous type, far from it.

- Leo.

- It's all right, Lexi.

I'm sure he has every reason to be angry with me.

It seems I was not the perfect uncle.

I wish I could remember what happened between us,

I really do.

But I can only say I am truly sorry.

- What the hell is this thing?

- You two haven't been introduced.

- Introduced?

What are you talking about?

- How rude of me.

Leo, Lexi, meet Robin.

He's my companion.

He can be a little shy.

- Don't worry.

You get used to it.

- Where did you get this?

- I made him.

- Wow.

I've got to say, that's pretty impressive.

- There's a lot more to Robin than meets the eye.

Would you two like to see something cool?

- Always.

- Oh no, not this again.

- Come on.

Right.

Knock on the door three times.

Go on.

Now, count to three.

- One, two,

three.

What?

- Well, come on, someone must have moved it.

- Don't look at me.

I was with you the whole time.

There's no one else here.

- Well, that thing didn't move by itself.

- If you say so.

Right, I shall say goodnight.

I'm sure Freya will assist you with anything else you need.

- Thank you, Aidan.

Goodnight.

- He's quite the character.

- Bat shit fucking crazy is what he is.

Always has been.

You've seen this before?

- This is just the tip of the iceberg.

- Go on then.

How'd he do it?

- I don't know.

I used to think it was just a cheap trick at first.

My best guess,

some sort of robot.

But the more time you spend with it,

the more you start to wonder.

You don't believe in the supernatural, do you, Leo?

- No.

- Neither did I.

Until I came here.

If you ask me, Robin is far more than just nuts and bolts.

- Well, how do you mean?

- I've seen things that make me wonder

if it's under the control of something else.

Something cruel.

One thing's for sure.

It doesn't feel good.

Anyway...

Goodnight, Leo.

Another romance, novel?

- I'm not sure half these authors really know

what they're writing about.

- Most people aren't lucky enough to experience true love.

Do you think you'll ever find true love again?

- God, no.

I think my race is run.

- I'm sure she wouldn't have wanted you to

spend the rest of your life alone.

- But I'm not alone, Freya.

I have Robin.

And now Leo and Lexie have come into my life,

and where would I be without you?

I know you've only been here a couple of years

but I have come to see you

are the daughter I never had.

- Can I get a taxi, please?

Freya Jemons.

Do you accept cards?

I forgot my cash.

As soon as possible, please.

- Well, I can see you haven't slept well.

- Yeah, well, I've got a lot on my mind.

Expecting someone?

- Freya's never late.

- You're really fond of that thing, aren't you?

- Well, we all need someone to keep us company.

- You really don't remember anything about me?

- I'm not proud of it.

- Nothing at all?

- Sorry.

But it's given me a new perspective on life.

Everyone is a blank canvas to me now.

I have no grudges to hold.

- But no good memories either.

- I prefer to focus on the positives.

Anyway, if what I did upset you so much,

how come you came back?

- I realized everyone deserves a second chance.

Not all the memories I have of you and this place are bad.

We would come stay with you here every summer.

I'd play out on the grounds from sunrise to sunset.

We came to stay with you one Christmas too, but

I remember you and my dad got into an argument

because you didn't buy me any presents.

- Huh.

- He could never get over you just keeping all your money

in that safe and not helping us out.

We always struggled to make ends meet.

- A safe?

- Yeah.

- Are you sure?

I'm not aware of any safe here?

- He said you locked away all your cash

because you never trusted banks.

- Well, if that's true

then I have no idea what happened to it.

But I doubt very much it is true.

- Why?

- I recently found a letter.

An angry one.

I must have decided

not to send it to your father in the end.

It was a rant, complaining about him being a compulsive liar.

I'm afraid you may have been misled.

- Aidan?

What's wrong?

- What did you do?

Was it Freya?

Did you hurt her?

Did

you

hurt her?

- God, where is this safe?

- It's okay.

It's just me.

I'm here.

Just a moment.

It's okay.

I'm here.

It's okay.

- Impossible.

- As for the outside of the castle,

you can see a lot of the original 16th-century build

and features still remain.

- And this, if the great British weather plays ball,

this is where your outdoor ceremony will be.

This castle is truly fit for a princess.

Well, look, take your time.

If you decide this is a place for you or have any questions,

you know how to reach me.

- Thank you so much.

This is the one.

You agree, right, Leo?

Leo!

- Yeah.

- This is getting out of control.

- What is?

- You're just not there.

You're lost in your own head.

- I'm sorry, I was...

I don't know.

- I get it.

It's the wedding.

- It's not the wedding.

I promise.

- Have you changed your mind about all of this?

- No, of course not.

- Well then tell me what's going on.

If this is going to work,

we need to be honest with each other.

- All right.

I didn't know how to tell you at the time.

There was someone in the hallway.

And then we both saw that thing move by itself.

- It was a trick.

- Even Freya tried to warn me about that thing.

- What are you saying?

- It seems to have some sort of hold over my uncle.

- Your uncle's not well, Leo.

He's delusional.

- I'm not so sure that's true.

What if he's not as crazy as you say he is?

- You're alright.

You're alright.

- What the hell is that thing?

- It's clear I spent my professional life

developing innovative weapons.

My team and I apparently created a prototype

and our creation had the ability to think and feel

and act out anything we demanded of it.

And after my accident, I followed some old plans I made

and adapted it to resemble these photos.

But even I didn't fully understand its true potential.

In truth, I still don't.

- You had a son.

- I believe, I did.

His name was Robin.

- Why didn't you ever talk about him?

- This is all I have left of him.

This is the only evidence he ever existed.

It was a lifetime ago.

You weren't even born.

After my accident, I had to come to terms

with what had happened to me

and I felt lucky to be alive.

And then...

and then I found that box and these photos.

I felt I'd lost something.

I felt something had been taken from me.

I just wanted Robin back home with me.

I just wanted my boy.

- Your son,

do you know what happened to him?

- Well, I heard rumors, all conflicting stories.

Some say they died in a fire while I was away on business.

I see no fire damage here.

Another one, what was it?

Robin ran away from home and Jane couldn't take the pain

so she took her own life.

Well that too doesn't sound possible.

It seems the truth is a closely guarded secret,

a code I don't think I'll ever crack.

I feel I don't even know who I am.

I mean, look at me.

Half a man.

I can barely even stand.

What kind of father can't remember his own son?

What...

What kind of husband am I?

- It's not your fault.

That doll, Aidan,

is it possible that through it...

- Robin is still with me.

His soul is trapped within my creation.

I just know it.

I feel it.

- Well, how is that possible?

- Your guess is as good as mine.

My son is still alive

and that's all that matters.

- Aidan Retherford?

I'm DCI Livingston and this is DS Farmer.

Can we have a word?

Freya hasn't been seen for two days now.

A lack of contact for such a long period is out of character

for her according to her brother Sam.

So naturally we are concerned.

She's a woman of routine,

as you know yourself.

Now,

we understand that she left for work that day as normal.

We've got CCTV footage that shows

she made it to within about a mile of this house

for work the day she went missing.

So, I just need to confirm with you,

you did see her that day?

- Well yes, that's correct.

It was a normal day like any other.

She...

She worked her shift.

She said her goodbyes at the end of the day,

9 o'clock on the dot as normal.

And...

Well that's the last time I saw her.

- Did she mention to you any change of plans?

Something out of the norm perhaps

or a night out on the town after a shift?

- No, I've already told you.

- Are you sure about that?

- Certain.

I mean, it is unlike her.

You're right. I...

I'm worried.

You see the interesting thing about this case, Mr. Retherford,

is that we know for certain that night at 5 past 9,

Freya called a taxi home from this address.

Now,

the taxi company confirmed she wasn't here

to take that lift home.

Indeed, the driver gave up waiting and left 15 minutes later.

Can you think of any explanation for that?

- No. I...

- Do you have any CCTV cameras on the grounds?

- No.

- Do you have any evidence to prove she left?

- No, we're going around in circles.

- Answer the question.

- Freya isn't here!

- Thank you for your time.

We'll be in touch if we need anything further.

We'll, show ourselves out.

[raining

- Freya?

- We're sorry, but the person you called is not available.

Please leave your...

- Shit.

Freya?

- What is your emergency?

Hello?

- I'll ask you one more time.

Did you hurt her?

Did you do something to Freya?

Now tell me the truth, please.

Did you hurt her, Robin?

You wouldn't lie to me,

would you, boy?

- Does anyone know anything about

what really happened to the Retherford family?

My mum told me about an urban legend from her hometown

about a rich guy's son that went on a rampage.

Killing everyone that came to his birthday party.

Can't find anything about it anywhere.

Yeah, it's true.

The kid's rich father paid people in high places off

to protect himself and his company's reputation.

Jesus Christ.

Come on, come on, come on, come on.

Pick up, pick up.

- Hello?

- Peter.

Peter Williams?

- Yes.

- My name is Leo.

I'm sorry to disturb you at this hour

and I know this is a bit out of the blue but...

- Sorry, who is this?

- I wanted to ask you about Robin Retherford.

Hello?

Peter?

- How do you know that name?

How did you get this number?

- I'm related to him.

I read what you wrote on that forum about what happened

all those years ago at the birthday party.

The massacre.

- I don't know what you're talking about.

- Yes, you do.

Look, I know his name was Robin.

Aside from that you're the only one who seems

to know the truth about what happened.

- And that's the way it should stay.

- Why?

Don't you think people should know the truth?

Tell me, what did Robin do?

- On Robin's 11th birthday,

he killed everyone who was there that day,

except his father and I.

He spared my life.

I've never understood why.

I just always remember how close he seemed with his dad,

but also how cruel his mum could be.

Towards the end of the party,

Robin was acting up and his mum

locked him in the cellar as a punishment.

So the father let him out of the cellar.

Something in him just changed.

He seemed to relish the suffering of his victims.

It was like he wanted them to feel his pain.

- What happened to Robin?

- After he killed his mother,

he too was killed the night of the massacre.

Robin was killed by his own father.

His name was Aidan.

Aidan Retherford.

- No! No! No!

No!

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry.

- Looking for this?

How could you keep this from me?

- I didn't want you to worry about it.

- I'd hate to have to spoil such a pretty face.

How much do you owe?

- I'm going to get him the money.

- How much?

- 50,000.

- We don't...

We don't have...

- I know. I know.

- How did this happen?

- I needed the cash.

I was months behind on rent, the car.

- That's not 50 grand, Leo, not even close.

- There are other debts, plus...

- The ring.

- And everything we need for your dream wedding.

- It's not worth this, Leo.

Nothing is.

- You are.

He told me he'd give me a year to pay it back.

Then he started saying he wanted it paid back right away.

Next, he was asking for more and more money,

way more than I borrowed,

like double what we shook on.

I told him I couldn't do it,

and he started threatening me, threatening us.

The guy's insane.

I was desperate.

- Jay was that guy at the beach.

He's following us, isn't he?

You need to get him the money, Leo, quickly.

I'm scared.

I'm really scared.

- I have a plan.

My father always talked about a safe,

where Aidan hid away all of his money.

- Where are you going with this?

- My father always complained how we lived a life of struggle

while Aidan sat on half a million.

- I am not stealing from him.

He is your uncle.

- He's not a good guy, Lex.

Don't let him fool you.

There's more to him than you could ever imagine.

- That doesn't make this okay.

- He doesn't even remember the safe,

let alone the money.

- How do you know that?

- Because I asked him about it.

He doesn't remember a thing.

- Well, he knows about it now.

- No, he's adamant it doesn't exist.

He says my father must have lied.

- Maybe your dad did lie.

- But what if he's telling the truth?

- That's why we're here, isn't it?

You're not here to fix things with Aidan

You're here to rob him.

- I can't just let that money rot here.

- Okay, so you find the safe.

Then what?

You don't even know the code to open it.

- He always used the same six-digit code for everything.

Every password, every security alarm.

He didn't know I found this out then

and he certainly doesn't know I have the code now.

- I feel like I don't even know you anymore.

- Where is the guilt here?

He doesn't need the money.

I'm doing this to protect you.

Everything is for you.

- 500 grand?

- Maybe more.

I always promised you a better life.

I told you I'd give it to you.

One way or another.

This...

This is our chance.

I'll pay Jay back.

We'll have our picture perfect wedding.

You always dreamed about owning your own place,

opening a seaside bar.

We just have to find the safe before Jay finds us.

But I'll make sure my uncle doesn't even know

we're searching for it.

Will you help me?

- This is insane.

- Keep your voice down.

He'll be out for the night in no time.

An earthquake wouldn't wake him up from two of these.

- Oh...

Hello dear.

- I thought you would do with a nightcap?

I did it.

Leo!

- Mr. Rutherford?

Police!

- Police?

- Just keep quiet.

- What do they want?

Are they here for us?

- Open the door!

- Quickly.

- So what do you want to do?

- We haven't got a warrant.

There's nothing we can do.

- Sam's emergency call was traced here.

We can't just walk away.

- We haven't got a choice.

- We have to at least check the grounds.

- No.

- What if he's keeping them both locked up somewhere,

like the barn?

You know I'm right about this one.

I can't have that on my conscience, can you?

- Okay, fine.

Go.

I'll take the other side.

Be careful.

- Are they gone?

- I think so.

- Freya?

Sam?

Possible sighting in the barn.

False alarm.

Over.

- Copy that.

The ground's been cleared.

Anything to report?

[heavy breathing

I repeat, anything to report?

- No.

- No. Please.

Please, no.

No.

- En route to barn.

- The safe isn't here, Leo.

- You don't know that?

- There's literally nowhere else to search.

- The cellar.

- What cellar?

- Robin's mom locked him in a cellar.

- What are you talking about?

- Well there must be an underground space down there somewhere.

That's where he's hiding the money.

- What are you doing?

- This is the only room we haven't searched fully.

- What if he wakes up?

- Well, he won't.

Trust me.

- No.

- This has to be it.

- We're getting close.

I know it.

We are on the verge of something

that's going to change our lives forever.

We've come too far to turn back now.

Look, we get the money, we get out,

and we don't look back.

Okay?

- There's no safe down here.

- Let's keep going.

It's okay.

We're alone.

- Leo!

Leo!

Leo please!

- Lexi!

- Over here!

Over here. Over here.

- I'm going to get you out!

- Leo!

Leo!

- What's going on?

- Please!

[woman crying

Please.

Leo.

Leo look.

This is it.

- I told you.

I told you.

This is our chance.

Here we go.

Oh, fuck!

- What are we going to do?

- I don't know.

- We need 6 digits.

They can't just be random, right?

What has 6 digits?

- A date.

- Aidan's birthday?

- Robin.

Robin was born on May 3rd.

He was 11 in 1990, so he was born in 19?

- '79.

- No. No. No. No. No. No.

- You said he was loaded.

There's nothing in here, Leo!

- It doesn't make any sense!

- How are we going to get out of this?

- I don't know.

I don't know.

But I promise you,

I'm going to get us both out of here.

I love you, Lex.

- I love...

- Lex!

It's okay.

Lexi.

I'm so sorry, Lexi

It's okay. It's okay. It's okay

It's alright.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Help!

Aidan!

Someone help me, please!

Calling for help down here,

it's no use.

I would spend days on end,

locked down here, screaming for my father's help.

In my mother's eyes, a night in this place

is a suitable punishment for a boy who lies.

- What do you want from me?

You've kept me alive.

Are you going to let me go?

- That depends.

- On what?

- On whether your lies continue.

- What lies?

- Why are you here?

- I came to patch things up with my uncle.

- Sometimes simply leaving me down here

wasn't punishment enough.

- Help me!

- Sometimes she took my torture further.

For we must not lie.

Why are you here?

- I told you!

- You lied.

Why are you really here?

- The money!

The money.

I came to take Aidan's money.

- Who are you?

- I'm his nephew.

- But that's not true either, is it?

- What are you talking about?

I'm Leo.

I'm Aidan's nephew.

- You're an imposter.

True or false?

No more lies.

- I'm not related to him.

His nephew's name is Max.

Max Retherford.

I used to work here.

I was the groundskeeper 6 years ago, before his accident.

I overheard Aidan on the phone one day.

He mentioned how he didn't trust banks

and how he kept every penny that he owned in his safe.

Things were different for me then.

I wasn't desperate for cash.

But what he said on the phone that day stayed with me.

When I first heard the news that

Aidan had lost his memory,

I no longer worked here.

I couldn't help but imagine

what it'd be like to come back to the house

and pretend I was his long-lost nephew.

The nephew he'd complained so much about over the years.

He talked so much about Max,

that becoming him seemed like it would be easy.

I felt like I knew him.

I memorized so many small details.

The summers they spent together,

Max's anger towards him,

the years they'd gone without speaking.

His nephew has sworn never to return to Oakwood House.

I came up with the idea of pretending

that his long lost nephew wanted to patch things up.

It would give me the time and access that I needed.

But it was the biggest mistake of my life.

I've lost everything.

It's all my fault.

It's all my fault.

- I used to cry and beg my mother

for forgiveness just like you.

I got beaten more and more with every tear.

One night she beat me within an inch of my life.

I, too, will show you no mercy.

No lie must go unpunished.

- Time to do what your mother couldn't.

This is for Lexie.

- Welcome back, my boy.

Welcome back.
