Original subtitles

If I'd glanced back a tick-tock later, I'd have missed her, Zita.

Right there in front of me and I would've missed her.

I'm looking for a Paul who I think works here.

Leyton branch, Scottish, like you said.

I heard he took over one of them key cutter places.

I got to see him up close, put this knife in his hand if I can.

We're not gonna go after Paul anymore, no?

100% we are.

Scrape me off now you got your daughter back.

Get her out! Get her out!

Get her out!

Come with me, yeah? Come on.

Tell me where she should be then I'll fuckin' kill you.

She's not gonna do nothing.How is this not already something, Nelly?

Remember me? You. Cerys.

Could you call her for me, please?

Where are you? I've waited all those years.

Nelly.

You fuckin' bastards!

I'll come in to see you as soon as I can.Don't bother.

I want my dad.

Where is he?

(PHONE RINGS)

(BIRD CALLS)

That's all she said?

That's all. She asked for you.

Right.

What, on my own?

If that's what she wants.

Yeah, but even so, CC, are you sure?

No, I'm not, Nelly.

Not at all. But it's all she says.

Nearly a year and a half, it's all I've heard from her. Asks for you.

So go and see why, can you, please?

Dylan said he knew you'd find me.

Did he? If anyone would.

He never said that to me. He said it would be you.

You know you've got a good mate there.

Thank you. No, he is.

He's a good 'un.

I mean thank you for finding me.

You are more than welcome, darling.

I like being your dad, Jody.

I know it's weird cos we only just now met,

but I would very much like to see where we go to from here on in.

I know someone who's been through it,

same as you.

She's Grace.

I helped her go after the man that got her.

You know, she went all the way to court.

Stood up for herself. Just wait.

Did you get him?

Not as much of them as we were after, I ain't gonna lie.

But we did get some.

(INDISTINCT CONVERSATION)

Nelly?

Can I have a quick minute, please?

Nelly?

I need a minute, mate. I'm on my way.

I'm here when you're ready, Jody. Nelly!

That's what I want you to know. If I can help in any way,

I'm more than happy to. OK?

We haven't decided if we're gonna put Jody through all that yet

on top of everything else. Barry thinks we shouldn't.

Shouldn't what? Put her up there like Grace.

What, will -Cos they'll rip her apart like Grace was.

It wouldn't necessarily go like that for Jody.

Not got the background Grace has. Different circumstances.

We haven't decided. Well, she can talk to them,

to Shola and them lot, without her going so far as a judge.No.

What the fuck do you mean no?

Something's been done here, something's been done to her,

and the fuckers that done it ain't walking away scot.

She tried to kill herself. Fuckin' think about that for a minute.

You have to take your place now, Nelly.Sorry, what does that mean?

You can be Jody's dad in any way she'll let you

and that you can manage,

but...

it's up to me and Barry.

We decide what's best. It has to be.

She asked for me.

I know she did.

All right, then.

(OVER PHONE) "I'm in here cos of you,

and now you won't answer your fuckin' phone.

You promised me. I fuckin' hate you!"

(LINE GOES DEAD)

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

We're thinking bangers and mash, baby.

Yes, please.

I'll get it started.

He had a picture of you.

Who did? He showed me on his phone.

Say it again? At a restaurant it looked like.

Sitting at the table right next to you,

almost like he's taking a selfie.

He showed me it to prove how close he could get to you.

He said he'd kill you if I didn't do what he told me to.

Jesus. To prove he could.

It's the only reason I let them. He said he would burn you.

Set fire to you inside here. He said he'd done it before.

No, no, it's OK, baby.

That's not gonna happen.

I won't let that happen. I won't.

I won't.

It's OK.

(SNIFFS)

It's OK.

(KNOCKS)

You got my key with you?

Don't do that. I just want my key, Nelly.

Please?I never would've let her do anything to Son.

I never would. It ain't what you let, Nelly.

It's what happens anyway.

Just cos it's you...

Zeets, don't you miss me?

No? Huh.

Really, just tell me I'm missed.

(KEYS JANGLE) You can have your keys.

Does any part of you miss me?

I told you from the jump, Son comes first.

(KEYS JANGLE)

So I'm gonna take that as a yes because you didn't say you didn't,

and another thing. I was good with Son.

I was.

Until you weren't, Nelly.

(LAUGHTER)

You haven't returned my calls.

How's Grace? I was calling and calling and suddenly figured out

you lot had probably got her phone.

Why does she want you at that interview tomorrow?

I ain't got a scooby. Why, what's she said?

Unless you're next to her, she won't cooperate in the interview.

I know nothing about it.She made a call to you, we know she did.

Not about this.

It was nothing to do with me rocking up with your lot, on my life.

What?

Tomorrow, ten am,

my nick.

Can I tell her you'll be there? Yes,

I'll absolutely be there.

(PHONE RINGTONE) "You what, you what, you what, you what, you what!

You what, you what,

you what, you what, you what, you what, you what, you what!"

Who's this?

Claire? "It's Jody."

Hello, darling. Mum said I could ask you.

Did you mean it...

when you said you'd help me?" I did. Every word.

And whenever you're ready. "Mum's got the address."

He said yes. "Wait. What?"

Has something happened?

"She's decided. I'll text the address."

Um, hang on a minute.

When did all this happen?

"Woke up and decided.

She told me some of it last night, what this has done to her."

Anyway,

as soon as she woke up, said this is what she wants.

So we've gotta be there 9.30 for ten.

"Can you do that?" Today?

Yes, today. Why? "Er, no reason."

Nothing. It's just, you know, it's a bit sudden.

I don't think they wanna give her time to change her mind.

"Nelly, can you do this? Nelly?"

I can. Yes. Yeah, I'm saying yes.

Right.

Oh, shit.

Philippa Bleasdell, but everyone calls me Pip,

or DS Pip if we're being formal.

Grace, this is DC Mark Harper.

He's working with me on this investigation.

How are you doing today, Grace?

(TRAFFIC LIGHTS BEEP)

(CAR HORN HONKS)

Ah, shit.

(PHONE BEEPS) Look, I know I said I was coming, but I can't.

I, er, I have to be someplace else.

"Can you tell her for me, please?"

Still, fizzy or flavoured, Jody?

You must be pretty nervous being here today, Claire, are you?

I know I am. I am, yeah, very.

It's perfectly all right if you are too, Jody.

But your mum's right there.

And I'm nothing to be scared of, I'm really not.

Where's Nelly?

Where's my dad?

(PHONE DIALS)

(PHONE RINGTONE) "You what, you what, you what, you what, you what!"

Yes? I'm there.

I nearly lost myself going the wrong way, but I'm here.

Or I will be in seconds.

Yeah, I'm literally just pulling in.

I'm on my way. (PULLS HANDBRAKE AND ENGINE OFF)

(PANTS)

(DOOR OPENS)

(DOOR OPENS)

Hey. Sorry for keeping you.

I am. I was...

I wasn't sure which way I was going.

(SIGHS)

I'm Philippa Bleasdell. Pip.

Nelly, is it? It is, yes. Nelly Rowe.

Take a seat, Nelly. I'm so sorry.

Sorry, Jody.

He's not coming, Grace.

Why not?

He left a message but no reason.

Just to say he's sorry and he's not coming.

I called him and he didn't answer.

We should get started.

(BEEPS)

He said I was the best thing to come

from the best thing that ever happened to him.

But we should wait before he told Mum and Barry we were in contact.

Do you know why you agreed to do that?

He was my dad asking.

He said mum would be angry,

but he was so happy I found him that

he didn't want that spoiled right away.

I should've told you.

I should've.

It's not your fault, Jody. It's not.

I thought it was you.

For the purposes of the tape,

we're showing Miss Mavella a photograph of a house

on Menson Road, Wanstead.

Were you ever taken to or did you

ever voluntarily visit this house, Grace?

No comment.

Do you know anything about this, Grace?

For the purposes of the tape, we're show Miss Mavella a photograph

of the deceased, Gideon Charles.

Do you know who did that to Gideon?

Who stabbed him like that?

No comment.

I can see this is self-defence.

Knowing all he did to you.

And if he tried to again, I can see you doing whatever you had to,

to stop him.

I can see you doing this.

And if it is,

you should say. Now.

No comment.

He messaged me...

when I was on my way.

He said he'd friend would pick me up and drive me.

Who is his friend?

Can you tell me his name, Jody?

I don't know his name.

Can you describe him for me?

No.

Can you tell me why you don't want to do that, Jody?

Was the friend someone who hurt you, Jody?

He said he was taking me to my dad, but he didn't, my dad wasn't there.

He wasn't, he wasn't there.

And when I said I wanted to go they...

Where did they take you, Jody?

Can we...can we stop? One moment, Claire.

And we can stop. If Jody wants us to, we absolutely can.

But I just want to ask,

you're saying "they",

that when you wanted to leave "they" did something?

It was the friend and someone else, was it?

Is that when they hurt you for the first time?

I'm so sorry that happened, I really am.

Can I just ask one more thing before we take a break, Jody?

Can you tell me who that other person was?

(I don't know his name.)

This is the rucksack you were carrying when we arrested you.

See this here? And there?

That's blood, Grace.

And these are items of clothing we retrieved from your rucksack.

The pattern of blood on the orange top.

You wrapped the knife in that top, didn't you, Grace?

Blood on this one? It makes us think that it's been through the wash.

It's what you had on when you killed him.

No comment.

Where's the knife, Grace?

OK.

You leave us no choice, Grace.

We will ask the custody officer for you not to be granted bail

and that you remain in custody here while we consult CPS and recommend

that you be charged with the murder of Gideon Charles.

Do you understand what's been said to you, Grace?

(COAT HANGERS CLATTER)

I just came to get a coat. The weather's turned.

It has, hasn't it?

It looks like you're leaving me bit by bit, Bern.

I don't wanna start shouting again.

I'm not shouting.

I'm not even raising my voice.

This fella on the telly, he was saying how babies in the belly,

they know language.

He reckons that they understand what's going on out here.

I don't want our one to get to know me like that.

I just came to get a coat, Melon.

How are you, apart from that?

I feel fat. (SIGHS)

Well, you look gorgeous.

(DOG BARKS)

Hi, Bern!

Hello!

Bern! Oi! (RAPS ON RAIL)

She said she don't wanna see me. Pretty much all she said.

That and "no comment". What's that mean for her?

That she did that? Jury will be told.

And they can infer she's got something to hide.

Why are you on about a jury already? She's gonna be charged, Nelly.

She'll be in a custody cell till she appears in court.

She's almost 18. What do you want me to say?

And where is she?

Is she in there? She doesn't want you to know that.

When you see her, can you tell her I'm sorry I weren't next to her today

and that I ain't done. Not my job, Nelly.

Please?

Just that.

I ain't done.

(DISTANT POLICE SIRENS WAIL)

(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS)

Hello, mate.Hello. Can I help? Does Paul work here?

Do you know a Paul who works one of these around here?

No-one called Paul.

Not a Paul.

(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS)

(DISTANT SIREN WAILS)

I'll be with you in a minute.

Are you Scottish? (CHUCKLES) Guilty as charged.

Are you Paul?

Who's asking?

Did you used to be a brickie?

What's going on here?

I think you know a friend of mine. Yeah, who's that?

What is it you want to do here?

Her name...

is Grace. (CHILDREN LAUGH)

And you helped Gideon with her.

Well, you know someone called Grace, don't you?

What are you to her? I told you, I'm a friend.

Well, the best thing for you now would be to head away, friend.

Nah. I came in here - You don't know where you are, pal.

Get out of my place. I'm not going anywhere.

Is that a fact?Hey, step up on me and I swear the fuck

I will put you down! Is that right?Yeah.

I fuckin' will.

Oh, aye, how are you gonna do that? Hmm?

Show me. Show me how you're gonna do that.

(GRUNTS)

If you come near me again...

if I see you anywhere ever,

I will fuckin' take your eye. Do you hear that?

Do you?! Yeah, yeah.

You hear?Yeah. Yeah?Mm-hmm.

Now piss off out of my way.

(GRUNTS)

(COUGHS)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Snails? Snails.

All of them? Yeah, all of them. Every snail.

How does that work? Have they multiplied?

We had some.

What have you done?

I put her in the back. I didn't know who she was.

Who? Who was?

Hello, Nelly.

You found your daughter. I did.

Congratulations. Cheers.

I told you I would.

Are you gonna tell me for why you're here?

They've charged Grace. She didn't do it.

I don't care. I want to help.

Grace. Can you tell her how I can help her?

You don't believe me. Why the fuck would you?

I'm sorry, excuse my French, but...

Gideon did this. (POOL BALLS CLATTER)

All that's happened to that girl, all that she's been through

since he...set his sights on her.

They're after her for killing him.

He caused that, too.

Then can I let you know?

I mean it, Nelly. I believe you.

I might be reading you wrong, Jennifer,

but it seems like your bags are packed.

That you're doing this for Grace on your way out. When do you go?

I haven't decided, Nelly.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER) Hey.

What's going on?It's OK. Where's Jody?

Jody's asked if she can do today's interview on her own.

OK.

And that's a good thing, is it?

It's good she felt able to make this request.

Take a seat, go for a walk.

We'll be as long as we'll be.

She did say you don't have to stay.

I think I might, you know, go where I was gonna go after.

I'll go there now and then come back.

Yeah, go. I'll call you. Sure?Yeah.

Go. OK.

(GENTLE SIGH)

This man, he was first?

He was the first to hurt you?

And did he keep you?

No.

(INDICATOR CLICKS)

Do you remember where you were next?

I remember all of them,

all of their names.

I wanna forget, but I can't.

I wanna tell you.

The first one was Paul.

(METALLIC RATTLE)

Ah, shit. No.

Are you not gonna tell me what's happened?

I don't even know why Stace has called you. I am all right.

You don't look it, big 'un.

You really don't.

I found Paul. You found him?

That's a good thing, innit? That's - But then I blew it.

Didn't listen to Shola. Thought I was cleverer than I am.

I went in there... bloody swinging my dick.

I offered him out and he sat me on my arse, Goz.

I did that and then he fucked off into the wind.

Yeah, no more promises, Goz.

Fuckin' ask Grace, she'll tell you that. There's no more.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

This is Eustacia, my friend I was telling you about.

Everyone calls me Stace. You can see why.

Um, it's lovely to meet you.

We've been telling Jody about you all, so...

here we are. Hey, Jody.

You didn't come back.

I'm gonna go. It was Jody's idea to come,

pick Barry up on the way. Yeah?

Are you OK, Nelly?

You should tell Stace what you're having. Go on.

Er, this is Daisy, my better half. Dais, this is Jody.

Isn't it amazing? It is, babe.

Forgive him. He did a lot with Nelly to try and get you back.

Can't help it.

This is my mate Tam. Hi.

I can't help looking at you.

Usual, please. Are you OK?

How are you doing, Bern? How are you more like?

Hi, Jody. I'm Bernie.

I will be right back.

Can I have a quick word, please? (INDISTINCT CHATTER)

I had a chat with Cerys.

Was that the one he went off with? Yeah.

Do you wanna know, Bern? I do.

Yeah.

Bloody tell me. It's better you hear it from her.

(MUSIC PLAYS)

Jodie, this is Zita.

Zita's a good friend of Nelly's. She did a lot to help him.

Hello, Jody.

Is this all a little overwhelming? It must be.

Stace. Perfect.

I found him, Zita. I had him. Had him right where I needed him and then...

What was it you said?

"Cos it's me."

Well, there you go.

Who's the girl?

Son asked after you again today.

What did he say?Wanted to know if you were still friends.

You should come and see him. If you mean that, I absolutely will.

I can take him to school tomorrow, if that's all right?

One more? Yeah.

(CHINK)

Can I get some of that? Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Do you want me to take it for you? Please.

Do you mind, darling? No.

Right, let's have a little go at this.Can I get one?

Smile, Nelly. Beautiful.

That was lovely. Get in there, Claire.Come on.

And Barry, come on.

This Barry? Yeah.

(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS) Two roses between two thorns.

Got it? That's enough.

Let me have a look. I've got loads, mate.

See which one you like and then I'll send it to you.

Excuse me.

I hear Bernie was here. Who told you?

Told me what? Just come with me, mate.

What the fuck's that? We're gonna stay here.

We're gonna stay here and we're gonna let 'em talk.

We're gonna let 'em talk. Melon, siddown.

(LAUGHS) You reckon you're winning.

Look at him. He's a total gambleraholic.

Are you all right, darling?

Jode? Jodie?

What's going on?She was looking at her phone and run out.

Is that Paul? Oh, shit.

What is it?

Did she see this? We don't need anyone out here.

Get this lot back inside.

She's wet herself, OK? We don't need everybody gawping.

Who did she say this is?

I'm asking you, Nelly, please?

Stace, can you get everyone inside, please.

Either go home or back inside. Come on.

Have you got a photo of him on your phone? Why, Nelly?

Is she all right? Nelly!

I've been crying to catch up with him. This is...Paul.

The same Paul that Grace said about in court. The one who with Gideon -

Yes, I remember.

Jesus, Nelly. Who does she say this is?

He drove her from the library.

He took her away, Nelly.

I've gotta get her home.

Can I say goodnight?

Can I?

Hey. (SOBS)

OK, now, we've gotta get her back. She's embarrassed, she's scared.

Yeah, she must be. I mean, seeing him like that.

You should take her back. Take her back.

Look after her, yeah?

See you.

You will do.

(ENGINE STARTS)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

What can I get you, Bern?Um, soda with a splash of lime, please.

What are you having?

(SNIFFS) I'll have a double brandy, please, Stace.

Here, sit down.

Thanks, Stace.

How's the little one, Nels?

If, er, Claire and Barry have got anything to do with it, she's fine.

Er, should I send Zita up? She's still here.

I'm done for the day, Stace.

Best left to myself.

Right.

Night, then. Yeah.

Is that Jennifer?

It's me, Nelly.

How am I doing? I am...

doing all right as it goes.

Listen, I think I've figured out the best way you can help Grace,

if you still wanna?

Do ya?

So, JJ,

is he, like, your best mate? Yeah.

Can I be your second best mate?

Oh, my God, are you thinking about it?Yeah.

Yeah, what? Yeah, I can, or yeah, you're thinking about it?

Yeah, you can. Yeah?Yeah.

That's excellent.

Here.

Give me a hug.

Mates.

Go on.

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

What did he forget?

You are so stupid amazing.

What's going on?

Thank you.

Grace. Max Hill.

I'm a solicitor. I've been sent to help you.

All right, then.

What's going on, Nelly?

There's a red Corolla parked outside.

It's what I used to get Jody from where I found her.

Must be prints up the ying-yang, all over it.

And this,

this, she's who I got it from.

I think she was madaming Jody. Others, probably.

Cos this is her blower. There were untold snaps of girls

they've either got or they were after.

Could lead you to many, many pieces of shit and whatnot.

You've had all this how long? You should let me finish.

Best for all of us, mate.

This...

are out of the glovebox.

Shows you who the motor's registered to, insurance,

so you must be able to get someone off of that, yeah?

We could arrest you for obstructing a police inquiry.

What are you doing here, Nelly?

I had this on the night Gideon got what he deserved.

There.

I don't know if there's enough there for you to tell,

but that's Gideon Charles's blood.

How did that get there?

You probably found an orange crop top, did ya?

On Grace? Cos if you didn't, you should look for it.

I wrapped the knife in it.

There's probably blood on the top she had on an' all.

I tried to put it through the wash, but blood is a lot tougher to get out

than they make out, you know? This isn't funny, Nelly.

I know it ain't, Charlotte.

And I ain't here trying to be.

Then what are you here trying to say?

Gideon was in the house when Grace called me.

Showed up to hide same place she was.

She wanted to get out, but by the time I got there

he was already on her.

And the only way he left for me to fight him off of her was with this.

My prints are the only ones on there.

Get your lot to test it.

Why are you doing this, Nelly?

I'm not nearly as clever as I wanted to think I am.

I thought I was.

I thought cos I found my kid I could do fuckin' anything, but I can't.

Cos...

I'm still me.

Gideon got what he deserved, Shola.

He did.

Maybe I should an' all.

Huh.

(LAUGHS)

Grace didn't do it, Shola.

She didn't.

And I'm sorry I didn't say so sooner, but it was me.

It was.

I killed Gideon Charles.

Ah, you're gonna need me to do all that again, ain't ya,

for the tape and that?

Huh.
