Tell me about Jonathan Gower.

I wrapped him up in a rug,
and I dug a hole for him

in that little patch of wasteland
just behind the repair shop.

It's a mannequin.
Alice's necklace.

What were you doing,
following my wife?

She met me with the money.

She was gonna pay you
to kill Patrick.

He's been calling me.
You know nothing about me.

I know there's a darkness there.

The knife, Margot.

Where did you put the body?

It's hard to remember,
but if you took me there...

I've been playing along,
and I'm going to kill him.

Do it.

Look. You need to understand
that at that time of night,

out on the moors,
there isn't a light anywhere.

It's just...

Well, it's just black.

All I am sure of

is that I turned off the coast road
just past Malling.

I drove inland for a few miles.

And I stopped in a lay-by.

There was a wood nearby,
and that's where I buried him.

I should've found somewhere easier,
but those were the days

when I thought
you lot knew what you were doing.

Believe me, don't believe me.

'It's up to you.'

Jenny wants us shut down.

After that last debacle,
I'm inclined to agree with her.

I know you wanted me
to give it some consideration,

but the risk
just isn't worth the reward.

Well, no, I understand, Sir.

Please, call me Dan.
You've earned it.

Oh, well, thank you.
Thank you, Dan.

'I'm pretty sure
we'll find Jonathan.

'Yeah, I'm sure.'

The idea of letting him out,

risk him on our streets,
that's unconscionable.

Yeah, hi, can I speak
to the news desk, please?

CELL DOOR CLANGS
He lapped it up.

And he didn't question the idea
that Jenny's a bent cop?

Well, he was a bit quiet.

A bit angry, really, but no,
I think he believed every word.

I need to see him again,
find out what they're planning.

I don't know.

We just need to do it
exactly as we discussed.

You said yourself, he's very smart.
Well, aren't you smart?

Dad.
Hey. Hi.

Hi. Erm, I rang about ten times.
Oh, yeah.

Sorry, I was at the station.

There's been resistance
to letting him out.

Yeah. Look, Dad, I know what I said
before, but I'm just thinking.

Mum's gone. You're all that's left,
and if you do this... Hey, hey.

I don't know if...
Hey, hey. It's all right.

I hate him. I hate him so much,
but I...

I know.
I wish there was another way.

DOOR SLAMS

Here, you dropped it
under your seat. Oh, thank you.

Hell, Mr M.
Hi. Hi, Sam.

Got you a bottle of wine.
Oh, thank you very much.

Do you want to maybe pop that
in the fridge, Sam?

Yeah, sure.
Cheers.

What... What will happen to you?
Oh, it doesn't matter about that.

Of course it matters, Dad.
What are you on about?

It scares me too,
but I have to do it.

Thanks for coming.
My pleasure. Happy to help.

You can escort Miss Burdett out.
Yes, Sir.

Hi.

Don't worry.
It's just a box-ticking exercise.

We need an objective view
on Harbottle's behaviour in prison

for the report.

We know all about his behaviour.
Sir.

Harbottle, Sir? In prison.

Harassing victims,
obstructing police investigations.

Actually, that prison officer says
he's calmed down a lot recently.

I thought we'd agreed
that this wasn't happening, Sir.

It's not.

It's highly unlikely.

"Highly unlikely"?

I got a call from a reporter.

They're sniffing around a story,

saying that we're refusing
to open an investigation

into the murder of Jonathan Gower.

What?

The angle is that we've got new
evidence but can't be bothered.

But that's bullshit.
Of course it is. Sir?

HE SIGHS
I have to go.

The press office
want to finalise wording

on an official media response.

Sir...

Sir, he's playing with us.
Maybe.

Well, where did the story come from?
DOOR CLOSES

I don't want to speak to you.

We have one last chance to find out
what happened to your husband.

Now, the police won't help us

unless you and I work together
to force them.

So if you really want to know the
truth, then you need to let me in.

DOOR CHAIN RATTLES

THROUGH WALL: No, no.

INDISTINCT

You're just a loser.

Maybe I will.

You cannot say you're sorry.

Oi.
Hey!

Who's that?
Oh, no-one.

You're not gonna tell me?

It's nothing.

So, you and your dad
have been through a lot.

You'll have stuff
that's none of my business -

it's fine, I get it.

Then there's this.
Sam...

I've told you everything about me.

I told you about my dad.

Because that's what people who love
and trust each other do.

Sam, I'm... I'm sorry.
But it's not... it's not you.

Oh, God.
We're... We're fine.

We're... We're not the problem.

You keep going to places
that scare me,

and you won't tell me why.

So, who was on the phone?

It's...

It's nothing, Sam.

Full of shit, Margot.

DOOR SLAMS

We don't dance to the media's tune,

but this story does seem to be
getting bigger by the day.

I hear Natalie Gower may appear
on television next week.

Has anyone spoken to her?
She's not returning our calls.

Well, the media
will have a feeding frenzy

when they find out we're taking
Patrick for a stroll in the woods.

Well, we don't actually
have to tell the media, do we?

You think you can keep this
under wraps? Sure we can.

Do you seriously think
that whoever Patrick's working with

won't leak it?

If we let him out, only to discover
that this is just another sick joke,

the press are gonna rip us
to pieces,

and we'll have deserved it.

Do you know, that... that's true.

And so a big convoy of vans
and helicopters and the like,

it's only gonna
draw the press to us.

It's gonna be a nightmare, isn't it?

What if you made it a small team?
Big enough to minimise risk.

No, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hang on.
Unmarked police cars.

No obvious police presence.

Yeah, no-no dogs barking. Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.

Look, we'd have it done in no time.

Four hours tops. Easy.
I quite like it.

And if there's no body, we can
use that to shut up the press.

Win-win.
Or Patrick escapes.

And we've just let out the most
dangerous killer in the country.

Huw, you know him
better than anyone.

Yeah, I mean, Jenny's right.
It is a...

Well, it's a huge risk.
Yep.

Yeah, but that... that doesn't mean
he didn't kill Jonathan Gower.

If we can do it under the radar
in a small team,

as Fisk says here, then maybe.

You know, I, erm...
I feel the same pain as Natalie.

And if it was Alice, then...
then I'd do anything,

anything to find out where she was.

That man has...
He's wrecked my life.

Stolen... Stolen so much.
And it is personal.

If we can do anything
to unearth some good,

you know, in all this evil,
then we just can't ignore it.

He won't escape. He won't.

I won't let him out of my sight.

I promise.

OK.

We do it quick, quiet and move on.
But we're doing it.

Listen, I know it's a risk.

I mean, it might even be
bloody stupid,

but you asked the question,
and so I answered it.

Say someone outside
gets wind of this,

a relative of one of the victims.

Well, then, that's why
we're using this small team.

They could turn up with a weapon,
seeing red, cause carnage.

You know, Jenny, that's really
a very dramatic scenario.

Worth considering, though.

No? Worth thinking through
every single possibility

rather than charging off like a...
like a twat?

Huw, Huw.
Er, OK, yeah.

I've been hasty, haven't I?
It's not too late to call it off.

Yeah, well, let's just...
let's just see what he says.

I'm sorry. I'm just...

I don't know, I'm just trying
to make myself useful.

Yeah, so do a charity run.
Yeah.

KNOCK ON DOOR
Ah.

I just wanted to check in.

Are you sure about this?

Well, I am if you are, yeah.
I'm backing your instincts.

You're never wrong before.

Yeah, I wish...
I wish Jenny felt the same way.

Oh, she'll come around.
Yeah.

I must say, I think
you're really good with her.

I mean, there aren't many
other senior officers

who would tolerate
the way she speaks to you.

It's the modern way, unfortunately.

Yeah, and she does mean well.

But then when she gets the blinkers
on, you know, there's...

And we do all need to be pushing
in the same direction,

so to have someone
who's constantly negative,

constantly questioning things,
I mean, it's a bit of a drain.

I think Jenny should focus on other
casework for the next few days.

What do you think?

Whatever you say, Dan.

PHONE VIBRATES

PATRICK: 'Every time I call,
you always answer.'

Now, why is that?
MARGOT: 'Why would I hide from you?'

I've never hidden from anything
in my life.

'Do you remember how it felt
when it was just you and me?'

When I took your picture.

If we were alone again,
just you and me...

'What would you do?'

WHISPERING: I'd stop you.
Like you stabbed my dad.

But I wouldn't miss.

Then what?

And then I'd look in your eyes,
and we'd see who's scared.

I bet you would.
'You're not in my head!'

Such a shame you can't talk
to anyone else like this.

'You don't know anything.'

I don't think
you would try to kill me.

'I would.'

I would stab and stab and stab,
you piece of shit.

I would...
DOOR CLOSES

SAM: Margot?

Hey.
Hey.

You were right
about me blocking you out.

I'm trying to be normal.

But everything around me's
getting crazy. I just...

Can you be patient with me?
I am trying.

I know.

What...? Is it your dad?

Did he make you promise
not to tell me?

He didn't say it like that.

He doesn't think
I'm good enough for you?

No, it's not... That's not it.

He's pushing us apart,
and you won't talk to me.

It's not to do with that. It's...

It'll drive you mad.
That's what I'm telling you.

Whatever you say is OK
because I love you, and I trust you,

and we'll find a way to fix it.

It can't BE fixed.

It's about my dad.

He's going to kill Patrick.

Hey, hey. Hey, hey, hey, hey?

What?

I don't think we should talk here.
Someone might see us.

Who's gonna see us? You're safe.

Yeah, you say that.
He knows everything.

I don't know how he does,
but he's...

I'm-I'm scared of him.
Don't be.

He's not normal.

There's this prisoner,
this guy called Ian.

He... He thought
he could blackmail him.

He's now in the infirmary,
and Patrick never even touched him.

He just messed with his head so bad

that he slashed himself to bits
with a knife.

How can I not be scared?

Tell me it's not true.

What?
About you taking him outside.

Please tell me you won't.
So he knows?

I've just told you -
he knows everything.

I promise you, Jackie, he's only
gonna be out for a few hours.

Yeah, and what if he escapes?

He's gonna come to my house,
and he's gonna kill me.

No, he's not going to escape
because he can't.

How can you say that?

Because everything has been planned,
down to the last detail.

OK?
No.

Nothing, nothing has been left
to chance. No, no, no, no.

Listen, I'll talk you through
the whole thing,

and I will prove to you
that it'll be safe, OK?

I promise.

You're gonna be fine.

I don't know, it was such a shock,
the way he just came out with it.

What did you say?
I...

Did you try, "Dad,
are you totally fucking insane?"

I don't think it is insane.
I don't know what it is.

So, when he gets arrested,

and the cops find out that you knew
and allowed it, encouraged it, even,

what happens to you?

Well, he's not gonna tell anyone.

OK, so, there won't be any texts or
calls or anything suspicious? Huh?

He's so good at tricking you
into thinking like him.

He knows you're kind,
so he plays on that.

That's not fair.
Margot.

Why do you think your life
is so mental all the time?

What's the one common link to all
the shit that you've had to face?

That's Patrick.

Not Dad. Dad loves me.
Oh, of course he does (!)

He tells you so all the time.

I know how this game works.

When my dad
was in his black place...

...he'd leave his belt on the table
in the living room for us to see.

I'd come in and see it,
and I'd think...

...I'd think, "God,
I hope Mum says something

"so he goes for her, not me."

He messed with my head so much that
I wanted my own mum to get whipped.

And afterwards, he'd hug her
and cry with her...

...and she'd tell me
it was her fault.

But that's not... It's not the same.

Dad... Dad's not anything like that.
Really?

I don't know. Maybe you're right.

But if he really loves you,
then he'd stop if you asked.

Maybe I don't want him to.

But you must do.
You're a good person.

I just can't believe
he's got you to think you're not.

DOOR CLOSES

And all this has been approved?
Apparently.

The big boss cop loves him.
He agrees with everything he says.

And he just told you all this?
No.

I had to wheedle it out of him.
I did it exactly as you told me.

He loves to be the hero, doesn't he?

So now we know.

And now we can plan.

And be together on the outside.

All good, Jenny?
KEYBOARD CLACKS

Yeah, yeah, I guess.
I'm just, erm...

...working through the CCTV footage

from Alice Miller's
hit-and-run case.

Not offering up anything so far.

How can I help, Sir?

Oh, I just wanted to thank you
for all your input earlier.

Oh, well, my pleasure.

We can take it from here.

Did you talk to Huw, Sir?
He's clearly as worried as I am.

I think he needs a more
encouraging environment to work in.

Let's focus your energies elsewhere.

I can still be useful, Sir.

Thank you for all your help.

What did Huw say to you about...?
This is my decision.

Do you have a problem with it?

No, Sir.
No.

Go ahead and pick it up.

It's got a bit of recoil to it,

so you'll have to be close to him
when you do it.

Not too close.

Don't wanna get blood and bone
over you.

Or do you?

Look.

You do know I can make him disappear

without you having to resort
to all this?

No, I... I have to do it myself.
I mean... I want to do it.

No, you don't.

Everything about you's
screaming that you don't.

Have you ever imagined the act?

Of pulling a trigger
at the back of his head?

It's all I think about.

So, this is... this is where
we're gonna park the cars.

How many?
Just two.

We don't want to alert the public.

So, two unmarked cars, six officers,
and then just me and him.

This is where he said
he carried the body to.

So, this is where you...
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

And after he's told us
where the body is, then...

then I can organise it
so that it's just me and him.

And there's also
no radio signal in there.

And they're not worried about that?

No, no. I...
They think it works fine.

I told them that we'd done a check.

Dad, if I asked you not to...

...if I begged you not to...

...would you call it off?

It's not gonna stop, Margot.

You're my daughter, so...

...you have to carry
this terrible burden.

And he knows
that if he keeps hurting you,

then he's gonna hurt me, so...

I can't stand that.
I'm begging you.

Don't do this. For me, Dad.

For me, please.

OK. OK. OK. Of course, I... I won't.

I won't.

I promise.

All right?

Er, now's not a good time.
Oh, OK.

Well, I'll just piss off and come
back when it suits you, shall I?

Don't be a dick.

Did you hear
I've been kicked off the op?

What? Why?

I'm a gobby cow, I guess.

Gobby blokes, they're all welcome,
but me and my fat mouth...

You're being weird.

Am I? Well, probably.
What does that mean?

It means that I'm just about
to get into a car

with a guy who tried to kill me.

I went back
over Jonathan Gower's memoir.

Yeah, this is
now that you're off the case.

Yeah, well.
And there's something I've noticed.

There's stuff missing.

Right.

Look, it's not obvious.

A lot of it's strange
and quite fragmented.

Some of it is only a few lines long,
but when I checked again,

some just end mid-sentence
at the end of a page.

So I think Natalie
might have removed some pages

before she passed them on to us.

Why? I mean, have you...
have you asked her?

No. Not yet. I've emailed them
to you so you can check.

OK.

What if Patrick didn't kill him?

Oh, Jenny...
Look, I know.

I know. Look, I know.

I know I'm the only one
that's still wonders about this,

but if he didn't, then why is he
taking you all out to those woods?

Well, just cos
he wants to mess with my brain.

Yeah, or to escape.
Jenny.

Look, if Patrick didn't kill Gower,
and he's still alive, then he's...

he's somehow managed to create
an entirely new life for himself

without ever tripping up once.

And why disappear
in the first place?

But if Patrick didn't do it...

Jenny, I've got six cops.
Yeah, and it should be more.

I know you wanna keep it low-key...

Well, that's not to do with me, though.

That's to do with the Chief Super.

Do you know, you've...
you've stopped asking me

about the investigation
into Alice's death.

Well, I mean...

I don't like to dwell on it, Jenny.

Anyway, you'd tell me
if you found something.

I mean,
you're just trawling through

all this dash-cam footage,
aren't you?

Stop hiding things from me.

I'm not.

Jenny, I'm not.

PHONE CHIMES

'I know what I said,
but I'm going to do it.

'There is no body.'
Shit.

'He didn't kill that man.'
Shit.

'He thinks...'
No.

Mr M?

He's gone.

Sam, he's really doing it.

Hello, Huw.

Right, let's go.

DOOR BUZZES

Back to prison via this lane...

RADIO CHIRPS: 'This is Silver.
We have the prisoner.

'Confirming
that we're good to continue.'

Roger that from Gold.

Maddie, Johnny.

Trying to find a missing person.
Do you fancy giving me a hand?

I always dreamed of a road trip.

He lied to you.
That's all there is to it.

He said things'd change.
He said what you wanted to hear.

No. He said what would make himself
feel better.

Maybe he won't actually do it.

Sure, let's give him another chance,
and another, and another.

Margot, he's about to kill a man
in cold blood.

It doesn't matter that
it's Patrick Harbottle, it's murder.

All right, listen up.
You all know the routine.

So, we're gonna do everything
exactly as we agreed.

Er, Mikey, I want you to just stay
here and radio in if anyone arrives.

OK, let's... let's get him out.

Somewhere in there, is it?

Yeah. Somewhere in there.

Silver, just heading
into the woods now.

Are you seriously going to give me
the silent treatment?

This could be
our last time together, Huw.

DOG BARKS

Bloody hell. Er,
this is official police business.

Will you just go back
the way you came, please, sir?

Thank you. Thank you.

God. Oh, my God.
I thought we checked for all this?

Who else could be in here?
Sorry, Sir.

I thought it was...
Yeah. All right. OK. Erm, OK.

Jim and Laura,
can you just stay here?

Don't let anyone down this path.
Mm-hm.

Why is everyone so tense?
Shut up.

Just keep moving.

PATRICK WHISTLES

WHISTLING CONTINUES

I know what happened
to your husband.

Five years ago, police were called

to a road traffic accident
in Dudley.

The victim had no identification
on him of any sort.

The only thing found at the scene
was a backpack.

OK? Containing a few
personal belongings, one of which...

...was a teddy bear.

Natalie, how many grown men do you
know that carry around a teddy bear?

Look, can I come in? Please?

The police, they, erm...
they put out an appeal.

Yeah? They even got this photo
in the local paper.

But they had no response.
No-one came looking.

And with no leads to go on,
they closed the file.

It's been quite the search
to find him.

No, he... That won't be right.

I can get extra checks done to prove
who he is by the end of the week.

OK? But I haven't got time.

NATALIE CRIES

Yeah.

Yeah. It's DS Atkins.

I need to speak to
Chief Superintendent Clark urgently.

OK. He needs to know that
Jonathan Gower was killed in an RTA,

not by Patrick Harbottle.

What was on those missing pages?

It was all about you, wasn't it?

Jonathan was in Dudley
because he'd left you.

You were the one watching him,
controlling him.

I wasn't.

He just didn't know
how to look after himself.

Did someone put you up to this?
What?

Did someone visit, tell you
to feed us all this bullshit?

It's not bullshit!
Jonathan needed me. I kept him safe.

You've got no idea
what you might have done.

I think...

...he's here.

How can you be so sure?
It took all night to dig the hole.

But when the sun came up...

...I noticed that tree.

Yeah.

This is the place.

OK. Let's call it in.

FISK: Silver, possible location
for the body.

Silver, are you receiving?

Have you got no reception?

No, Sir. Sorry, I thought...

No. OK, OK. Right.
Matty, I want you to stay here.

Mark the spot, and Fisk and Duncan,
you go back the way you came.

And as soon as you get reception,
call it in

and tell the body recovery team
to come here as soon as they can,

and I'll follow on
with the prisoner.

It's probably best
that Duncan goes alone

and I stay with you, Sir?

Yeah? Just to be safe.

Yeah. Yeah, that's probably...
probably sensible.

Let's go. Let's get moving.
Sir. Sir.

What, that's it?
It is if you're not lying.

Yes, it's DS Atkins.

I'm still trying
to get hold of the Chief Super.

Right, well, tell him
it is completely urgent.

TWIGS SNAP
Nobody fucking move!

You two, you get on your knees now.

You both get on the floor.
You lie there, face down.

No.

What? What?

You won't shoot me. You kill
an officer, you go away for life.

Fisk. Fisk.
GUN COCKS

Don't you step any closer.

There are police
all over this place.

You're not gonna get out of this.

Stay back!
Just give me the gun.

You're gonna be OK.
You're gonna be all right.

Stay calm.

It's gonna be all right.

It's all right. Just...
You're gonna be OK.

It's all right. It's all right.

FISK GROANS

Get ready, get ready.
Here you go. That's it.

FISK SCREAMS

Over here!

What happened?
Hold this as tight as you like.

Just keep... keep the tension on it.
That's it. You're OK.

Right. OK.
I want you to call it in.

The prisoner is on foot,
escaping with a prison officer,

and they're armed, OK?

Go, go! That's it.
You're gonna be OK, Fisk.

Be all right.
Help is on the way.

FISK GROANS
Just keep breathing.

WIND CHIME TINKLES

Anyone follow us?

I went north for a while
before turning back.

Went in a big circle.

All the cops are heading
in the other direction.

Do you think they've worked out
there's no body buried there?

Oh, yeah.

Well, you have
played it perfectly, Jackie.

When you broke into that house
and found that teddy bear?

SHE GIGGLES

Without that, we would be nowhere.

It's perfect. Perfect.

There's enough for a month.

I know you only said two weeks,
but it's better to be cautious, yes?

What's that?

It's a tracker.

I put it in there last week after
we had one of our lovely chats.

Then I followed you
the whole way here.

Where's the gun?

Under the back seat.

Give him the keys. He's driving.

Come on, get in.

You, go and stand over there. Go on.

Thanks for breaking him out.
Couldn't have done it without you.
