If somebody knows what happened to Elise...

if anyone has any idea where Elise might be...

we beg you to, please, get in contact.

There must be somebody who can help.

Three years ago, I lost my little sister, Elise.

- Is she breathing? - Stand back! Stand over there!

What did you do?

- We have to move it. - I can't.

- Nathan, what's up? - It's about Elise.

I lied to you about what happened that night.

Be in my office in tien minutes.

After what happened, I thought I'd done something wrong, made a mistake.

What does that mean?

How could I not grasp an opportunity like that?

- Opportunity to what? - Prove it!

- Prove it, how? - By making a ghost.

- How is it? - Sore.

I burst into tears today, watching an advert for tissues.

So...

Look away.

So it must be doing something, all the hormones.

I don't know what you're saying. I don't understand.

I'm saying, I was pretty sure that if Elise died in that place,

under those circumstances, the result would be, a haunting.

So...

I nudged things along.

You nudged things along. In what, in what way?

It was mostly cyanide. I'd been carrying it around for years.

- In case... - In case, what?

- I ever needed it. - Ever needed it, why?

For myself.

It was sort of a comfort knowing it was always there.

Did you really do this to us?

She...

She died, Bob.

A person died.

- Is she breathing? Is she breathing? - Stand back! Stand over there!

What did you do?

What did you do?

Look at her! What did you do?

You blamed me.

- And you did it. - Yeah, except death isn't real.

It's just a transition from one state to another.

And a ghost is just an echo of that transition. A reverberation.

That was the theory, anyway. Before I had a chance to test it.

To test it. You did this to Elise.

Yeah. If it makes any difference, it was impulsive.

I was off my head. I saw a chance and... Christ.

Do you have any idea what you've done to us?

What is it?

Watch what you're doing.

I don't think not really. But I do now.

Hey, hey, hey. What's the matter?

Something skewed the outcome, I just didn't know what.

I mean, it soon became evident that she was always with me.

Jesus, she was so angry. Nothing would make her go away.

The opposite. It just got worse.

You must have felt that, too, right, the escalation?

No.

I couldn't account for it.

Until I pitched up at your place and found out what you'd clone.

It's not real.

She wants us to put it right.

- Put it right... - How can you ever put it right?

You killed someone. She's dead because of you.

You can never put it right.

We have to admit what we did.

No, no, no, no. That is never going to happen. Ever.

It's already happening. The police was here tonight.

They know something. Won't be long before they're back.

No. Holly will not find out, she can't find out.

You buried her sister in the woods.

You took advantage of her guilt to worm your way into bed with her.

That's not true.

That didn't happen! I love her!

- It's not real, Nathan. - It is real. It's real.

- We did this together. - No, we didn't.

You did it.

We have to return Elise to her family.

Let them bury her. Let them say goodbye properly.

It will break her heart. It would destroy her.

I know it's hard, but you have to understand.

- I'm giving you a chance here. Elise does. - A chance...

If you let me do this alone, Elise will never forgive you.

She'll never go away, she'll always be there.

You have to let them go, both of them.

I can't.

This isn't about staying out of prison any more, Nathan.

This isn't about punishment.

It's not about prison, I don't care about that.

It's about protecting Holly and her family.

I won't do this to them. It's not fair. It's cruel.

I know it's a lot to take in and I want you to do the right thing,

I really do, but I can't wait. You've got a clay.

I can't stand it any longer than that. One more day or I'll go mad.

So what's this all about?

We said ten minutes. Where have you been?

So you lied. How?

Robert Morrow.

I told you that the night he picked me up...

he was on his way home from the party.

He was actually on his way back to the party.

Back to the party from where?

He said he'd stopped into town to score some cocaine...

and, fair play, he had plenty on him, so, yeah...

And you said nothing about this because...?

Come on!

Because of the drugs. I didn't want to get in trouble.

And I didn't think it mattered at the time.

And Robert Morrow?

This is the same Bob who suddenly pitches up at your place...

out of clear blue sky.

Holly told me.

She was worried about you.

- OK. - So what did he want?

Nothing.

Well, not at first anyway.

He just wanted a drink and I'm desperate to get rid of him,

for obvious reasons, so I agree to meet him

and he starts talking about that night.

About the girl who disappeared at the party.

Did I ever think about what might have happened to her?

Did I ever dream about her?

I keep trying to change the subject.

- It's making me feel pretty weird... - Yeah, I can imagine.

..but he keeps circling back to it. It's like he's fixated.

And it's all I can think about now.

That lie.

Like, where was he really coming back from?

You know, all these years I didn't think it mattered...

but now? I don't know.

I just don't know.

But I'm worried about Holly.

I'm scared he might...

- What? - Oh, I don't know.

There's something wrong with him.

I swear to God, he's not right. He gives me the creeps.

And if something were to happen to Holly...

Listen, you do know what you're doing here, right?

You're setting things in motion that can't be stopped.

Someone said he'd seen her...

that night...

after Bob and I had got home.

I always thought that put Bob in the clear.

Yeah. Me, too.

So who was it?

- Who saw her? - Her ex-boyfriend.

She woke him up...

banging on the bedroom window. Crying.

Distressed, demanding to be let inside.

By the time he got to the window, she'd wandered off.

And you didn't find that strange?

Of course we did. It always felt off.

But people who go to parties, they come home drunk.

They've had drugs.

They get confused about what happened when.

What happened at all.

So he, what, got it wrong?

I don't think so, no.

I was just never convinced he saw what he thought he did.

So what do you think he saw?

To be honest, I don't know.

Probably someone else.

Some other girl. I don't know...

Sometimes, I still lay in bed at night thinking about it.

I'm sorry.

- That doesn't mean anything. - I know.

So what am I supposed to think?

That you were in someone's bed?

You know that's not gonna happen.

Then where were you?

Is this something to do with Bob?

- Just thinking. - About what?

Are you gonna tell me?

Today?

Now?

I can't.

I am your wife.

I love you.

I know.

I've brought whisky.

Ice?

There's no ice.

So, how was your day?

I thought about telling her myself.

I ried to, but I just looked at her...

There's no way. I can't do it.

So, she's got this friend.

Jackie. She's a copper.

The one who was here last night.

Yeah.

You're right. If she was here last night, she must know something.

And it feels like it's about to come out anyway.

- It's not like we can stop it now. - No.

I thought about killing myself.

I understand that.

I've been thinking about it since I was 19.

But that just seemed like another terrible thing to do to her.

- So we go to Jackie. - Yeah. But not tonight.

Just give me one more week with her.

Just, like, another two days.

Another day. Just one more day with her.

- No. - Why not?

I need it to end.

Just one more drink, then.

One more drink and then we go.

So I realised something.

Yeah, what's that?

I was supposed to die, too, right?

That night we were both supposed to take it.

Yeah.

- Ready? - Not yet.

The longer we wait, the harder it'll be.

Just let me finish my drink.

Are you all right?

Yeah, just give me a minute.

Nathan, what are you doing?

I'm killing you.

There's sleeping tablets in the whisky.

Did you really think I'd let you hurt her like that?

Ever? Really?

She's never gonna know, Bob.

Never, ever.

Because I love her.

Do you understand that, you mad bastard?

I love her.

I love her.

And no-one is ever going to hurt her.

Where's the key to the safe?

I need Elise's dress. It's got my DNA all over it, hasn't it?

Where is it?

Where's the key to the safe?

Where's the key?

999 what service do you require?

This is 999, what service do you require?

I need an ambulance.

She was seen. I hadn't heard that.

By who?

- Nathan. - Jackie.

Where are you? Is everything OK?

No, I'm with Bob. Robert Morrow.

I've just come to his flat. I think he's taken an overdose.

- Is he breathing? - I don't think so.

- I've called 999. - I'll be right there. I'm on my way.

Where's the dress? Where's the dress?

Where's the dress, you mad bastard?

Where's the dress?

There's no ice.

Step away please, sir.

If you could just get back for me. Thank you.

Sats are 85, I can barely get a pulse.

He's hypertensive.

Right, sir, I've made a note of your name, your address, and your details.

I can add that to the system in the morning...

and in a couple of days, we'll get back to you.

Is that all clear? Yeah. Good night, then.

Listen, go home and talk to her.

We'll take a full statement tomorrow.

- Are you sure? - I'm sure.

Go.

Listen, when I got there...

I thought he was just drunk and rambling...

but he kept going on about a safe.

There's a big safe in that room.

I think you should look inside.

- We opened it up. - Thanks.

Hi, Jackie.

Yeah, I can talk. How have you been?

Jackie called.

They found her.

Have you called your mum and dad?

I'll do it in the morning.

Give them one more night's sleep.

So you were there that night.

At the party.

Yeah.

And you never thought to tell me?

- How could I? - How could you not?

I wanted to. I knew I should have.

But there never seemed to be a right time.

And then it was too late.

- You knew it was him? - My God...

No, I had no idea.

And then he pitched up here and I started to wonder. Yeah...

Then I started to think he might have...

You know. I started to think it might've been be him.

But you were with him, that night.

Yeah. But that was...

that was after. It must've been...

after.

I didn't know.

Not in a million years.

You should have told me.

You should have told me.

I'm moving home.

I need to look after Mum and Dad.

You need to stay away.

My colleagues will need to ask you some questions.

As soon as you're feeling up to it.

No rush.

- What kind of questions? - There's nothing to be nervous about.

You just have to think carefully about a few things that happened last night.

Things like what?

Well, there's the 999 call.

What about it?

It was made from Mr Morrow's phone.

Right.

Right, OK, yeah, I get you.

No, that was just...

He was rambling and rambling and then he just sort of collapsed.

And I basically just freaked out. His phone was on the table.

I just basically grabbed it.

I wasn't thinking and...

It was just there, in front of me.

There you are. There's always an explanation.

So, how are you sleeping?

I'm sorry?

Holly tells me you've been having trouble sleeping.

Well, yeah, I've...

- Yeah, I've been pretty stressed. - Have you seen a doctor?

No, not for a while.

But when you did, did he give you something to help?

He did, yeah.

It wasn't Temazepam, was it?

Why?

It's just that Temazepam is also what Morrow used.

A massive close.

The whisky amplified its effects.

It's quite a dangerous combination.

Oh, right.

So, do you still have the pills left that your GP prescribed?

Er, actually, no.

What happened to them?

I flushed them. I didn't like taking them.

Oh, I'm the same. Horrible things.

End of the day, if you can't sleep, it's better just to get through it.

Exactly.

Thing is, you might want to...

unofficially source some Temazepam.

Just in case someone asks any awkward questions...

about why you don't have as many pills left as you should.

- Will they ask that? - Probably not.

As it happens, Mr Morrow had quite the history of drug abuse...

and suicide attempts, going back to when he was young.

He had some trouble when his mum passed.

But he's not dead, Nathan.

- That's good. That's good news, right? - Absolutely.

So how is he?

In a coma.

What kind of coma?

You know the kind of coma you wake up from?

Yeah.

That's not the kind of coma he's in.

Give Holly a few days.

She'll be fine.

I'm not sure about that.

Well, we'll see.

I'll make sure she knows what you did for her.

What do you mean?

Don't worry, it happens sometimes.

It's just deep brain activity.

Bassically a seizure.

How have you been?

Getting there.

You?

Getting there.

How's work?

Good, yeah.

- They opened a gym on the corner. - Are you going to the gym?

Considering it.

Why didn't you tell me?

I thought it would be the end of you and me.

It's not like I was wrong, is it?

No.

You're going grey, mate.

You always used to make me laugh.

Do you want to know something else that's gonna make you laugh?

Er, yeah, virtually anything.

- No! - Yeah.

Yeah.

Hey, Grandma and Grandpa.

How are you?

How are you today? How are you?

When are you coming home, baby girl?

- When are you coming home? - Tomorrow.

Really. Another day? Is everything OK?

Everything's fine. She's just a bit light, that's all.

That's because she is so small.

You couldn't wait to be born, could you?

No, you couldn't wait to see the world.

I can't wait to get you both home tomorrow.
