[explosive]

- Last one.

- Last one.

- [Teenager] Light
it, light it, go!

[screaming]

[explosive]

[dark music]

[explosion]

[screams]

[dramatic music]

- Hello Eternus how
may I help you?

Yeah one moment I'll
just put you through.

I'm afraid he's kind
of busy at the moment

would you like to go
fetch his voicemail?

Okay yeah, I'll just
connect you now.

- Good evening Mr. Furst.

- Evening.

Welcome aboard

- Evening Mr. Furst.

- Hello.

Alright?

- [Woman] Mr. Furst.

[phone calling]

- [Voicemail] Fran Cunningham

I'm call screening
leave a message.

- [Caller] You evil bastard,
you people make me sick!

[airplane engine]

[intriguing music]

[rock music]

- [Narrator] Doctors have been

transplanting livers, kidneys
and hearts for over 40 years.

And faces have always
been different.

Should they be successful
doctors plan to remove

the nose, lips and chin
from the donor face.

[rock music]

- Help!

[knocks loudly]

- I didn't know the
system had crashed

so you're lucky I'm still here.

Just once could you
try thank you Adam?

I'm missing CSI for this.

Wait.

Oh can anyone turn the bloody
lights off in this place?

[dramatic music]

Oh my god.

[dark music]

- So tell me.

- You're chirpy sir considering.

- Grumpiness isn't a requisite
part of being in charge Posh.

What time they'd find the body?

- A few minutes past nine,
victim's name Declan Roach

25 years old a student in
the bio sciences department.

- Not exactly brave new
world this place.

- The problem with
this country is

it's been suffocated
by red tape.

There's your sodding form now
when do I get me case back?

- You're hear from us as
soon as we've located it.

- How long will that take?

- We open again at six
a.m., hopefully we'll have

some news for you then.

- Tomorrow!

- My cat and house keys
are in that case!

- So how did he die?

- Affixation.

- There's no sign of a ligature.

- And there's the puzzle.

I can't be sure but I
think that's our culprit.

- Liquid nitrogen.

- This is a sealed clean room.

If that tank did leak
it would have sucked

all the oxygen out of the air.

May as well be on Mars
because you wouldn't be able

to breathe in here.

- Well why didn't
he walk out again?

- I just look at the bodies.

- You wouldn't know an
alpha carbon molecule

if it actually said to you
I'm an alpha carbon molecule,

watch me deproteinize. [laughs]

- The state of you Matt,

haven't you got
supervision in the morning.

- I'm sick of having to
help the lazy little shits.

- Someone probably said the
same thing about you once.

- Well they couldn't
say it about me now.

Having a Ph.D it better
be worth all this.

- Two more months
and we'll know.

Come on, get up, we've
got to drag Superswirl

away from the lab.

- He's determined to
make us all look bad.

- Right now Declan's not
the one making you look bad.

What's going on?

- Here you go hold that.

So where do you say you've been?

- I didn't.

- Now then let me have a guess.

- Australia.

- Yeah that'd be why then.

- Why what?

- You fried your face.

They've got a hole in
their ozone layer.

- Just get on with it
or I'll be giving you

a hole in yours.

- [Peter] You were
here very late.

- We had problems with
our GK9000 support server.

- Which took you into the
clean room where Declan died.

- The lights were on
and I saw the body.

- And no one else was around.

Did Declan normally
work this late?

- Don't know, ask security.

- Did you know him, personally?

- Not really, he'd belly ache
if he had computer problems

like the rest of them.

I'd see him around the
labs, and on campus but he

wasn't someone I'd
be mates with.

- What you mean?

- He was a tub thumping
little prick.

Always banging on
about something.

So are you done?

- Sir.

- Thank you.

- It's in there.

There's no sign of forced entry.

- A warning to who?

[sighs]

- Dead, Declan.

- My worst nightmare.

- Why you had nothing
to do with it?

- Obviously I had nothing
to do with it Amy.

- All it meant was it must
have been an accident.

- It wasn't, they
released the rats as well.

You know what this was
all about, Science Saves.

- So what you gonna
do go to the police?

- No not yet.

- Why not?

- Because ...

- I never lied not to you,
to her or anyone else.

- Doesn't matter.

[whistles]

- What the hell's going on, hey?

- What do you mean Andy.

- With the station?

- Asbestos.

- Oh I might have guessed,
more bloody elfing safety.

This whole place is going
to the knackers.

Where are we going to work?

- We're in temporary
offices up the road.

- Well come on get a move
on, the day's half over.

- What time is it?

- About seven.

Get a shirt and a shift on.

- [Woman] Who is it?

- No one.

- Oh so now I'm no one am I?

- I'll be out in 10 minutes.

- I could come in and wait.

[mysterious music]

- New note to self check
with Dan Gaston about

DNA repair enzyme R8054.

- Why didn't you use sunscreen?

- Do I strike you as a man
who worries about his skin?

So you gonna tell me
what I've missed?

- Not very much has happened.

- Nothing much, I've
been gone five weeks.

I've never known bugger
not happening in that time.

- We wrapped up the Turner case.

Michael Wheeler's been
showed to a fair trial.

There was a hit and run
on the Ellison Road.

And we've had an asbestos
scare at the station.

[sighs]

Paperwork's sitting
on your desk.

- Where ever that may be.

You look tired, late night?

- We had a suspicion
death at the uni.

Student at the science
department, Declan Roach.

We set up an instant
room down there.

- I knew there was something.

We'll need a list of
his fellow students,

all his professors
and have you talked

to friends and family?

- No I've been sitting
on me ass.

I've got Spicer interviewing
his friends.

And I'm in his head of
department this morning.

- Fair dinkems you tell
me the rest in the car.

[climactic music]

- Some one tampered with
the nitrogen tank

and the lock mechanism
on the door.

- Prints, DNA?

- Clean.

- No accident then.

- It'd be a random way
to murder someone.

- So this Declan might not
have been the intended victim.

What about the syringe
that was found?

- The blood in the
syringe was HIV positive.

- Was it Declan's?

- No.

You confirm the cause
of death yet?

- I suspected nitrogen
poisoning.

- Nothing else suspicious?

- Well our toxicology
found traces of

methamphetamine in his blood.

- Crystal meth, dealing with
a bit of a party boy are we?

- Loads of students use
crystal meth as a study aid.

- Speaking from experience
are you?

- Don't be daft.

- You know something Peter,

I'm getting the distinct
impression my return

might not be a welcome one.

So what is it?

- Nothing.

Just got used to working
on me own that's all.

- And now I'm back to
piss on your chips.

- I didn't say that.

- Yeah not in so many words.

Have it ever occurred to
you I might not be overjoyed

to be back in bleeding
Blighty myself.

- Aren't you?

- You're not the only
one suffering

a mid-life crisis around here.

Why don't you get back
to the university

and chill with the friends
and colleagues.

I'm gonna see what
mess I can find

in the family's dirty laundry.

- Morning.

- What's going on Matt?

What happened to Declar.

- No one knows yet.

- You wouldn't tell us the
truth even if you did know.

- You're only looking
for gossip.

But Declan was a friend
of mine Aimee.

So I'd be careful what
I say if I were you.

Now continue with
your practicals.

Shout if you need my help.

- [Machine Voice] Please
look into the mirror,

please open your eyes wider.

Please move a little closer.

- Is that it?

- This allows you to access
everywhere you need to go.

Please keep it with
you at all times.

- Alright thanks.

No need to look so worried love,

never been a guinea pig before?

- No.

- Oh well best free holiday
you'll get this year

I'm telling you.

Not that I'm doing it for a
holiday I like [laughs] I wish.

No, our Jack's 18 next
month and he wants a car.

But of course you know his lazy
son of father won't cough up

so down to muggins
here as usual.

Sorry what's your name love?

- Liz, Liz Reid.

- Alright, Grace.

I did this one job trial
for diet pills

about two years ago now
put on half a stone.

Bastards gave me the placebo.

- Well I hope you sued them.

- But you can't though can you?

They've got themselves
covered always.

- Ladies welcome.

I'm Joe Furst M.D.
here at Eternus.

I'd like to thank you
all for taking part

in our phase one chemical trial.

Now there's a lot riding
on the next few days

so no pressure. [laughs]

Any questions?

- Yeah when do we get paid?

- Okay so if you've all
signed your consent forms

we'll go through.

[dark foreboding music]

- And if I fill the
form in online

how long will it
take to process?

Ripper, that's what I
like about you Aussie's

you just get on with it.

Yeah, thanks.

- [Host] The question is for
20 pounds start the clock.

We start with geography
what is the full name

of the country that is
frequently nicknamed Oz?

- [Contestant] Australia.

- [Host] Correct.

Sharon.

- Are you from the council
about the car?

- It's the police love.

- About the car?

- Just a couple of questions
Mr. Roach.

What happened here?

- Oh animal rights 'cause
of Declan's research.

He said ignore them mom
they're all talk.

- How long has it been going on?

- About a month.

We've had dog shit
smeared on the front door,

fireworks through the letter box

and then last night

and they thought our
Declan was cruel.

- And what was he doing
at university

to make these people target you?

- Well he never told us.

And we wouldn't have
understood if he had.

Don't know where he
got his brains from.

Not ours he was just
born clever.

- Tell him about the car.

- He knows about the car love.

- Here love.

- Thanks.

You smoke then?

- Recently gave up.

- He's never liked it when
I smoked inside you know.

- Is he alright?

- Alzheimer's.

- He cannot be more than 50.

- 49, about a year ago he
put the key in the ignition

of his truck and couldn't
remember what to do next.

Doctor said he's just unlucky.

Getting unluckier
by the minute hey.

- I've been told by some
of the other students

that the two of you were
having a relationship.

- Damn it.

People like to gossip.

- So?

- We had sex a few times.

Not even very good sex,
it wasn't a relationship.

- But you were close?

- As close as you could
get to Declan.

- Meaning?

- Meaning he was totally
committed to his research,

hugely ambitious and never
tried to hide the fact.

Also worked ridiculous hours

and could be majorly
anti-social.

- Teacher's pet was he?

- No way, he and Cunningham
couldn't stand each other.

- Why not, clash of egos?

- Declan said she wasn't
doing pure scientific research

anymore that she'd sold
herself to the highest bidder.

- Sounds nasty.

- Actually the word
he used in his

formal complaint
was prostituted.

- She's not here.

- They were working together.

- Declan was researching
under her supervision

for the last 18 months
and prior to that he was

one of the best undergrad,
well the best actually.

- What was he doing exactly
anything to do with HIV or such?

- Oh no, no, nano-fabricated
structures

is all I can say for sure.

If you need specific
details you've better speak

with Professor Cunningham.

- It's glyceraldeyde ...

- Not a scientist yourself then?

- No I run the department.

- So you can get me a copy
of Declan's personal files.

- Well I'm sure I can find
someone to do that yes.

Where's Fran?

- At symposium in Harrogate,
the keynote speaker

dropped out at short notice.

- I do wish people would
tell me these things.

- I did last week.

- Has she been informed
of Declan's death?

- I've left messages but
she hasn't called back.

- So what you looking for?

- I'll know when I find it love.

- He was always a messy
little bugger.

Don't know how he'd have
coped if he lived on his own.

- He's been a student so
long must have put a strain

on your finances.

- Well it was Declan
I felt sorry for.

I mean we used to try
and help him out

but then you know with Kieran
having to give up work it ...

- Declan had debts.

- I don't know how I'm
gonna pay them off,

you know, and keep our
heads up above water.

- His debts aren't your problem.

- Haven't really sunk in

you know that he's gone.

I keep expected him.

Whoever's been doing this to
us they killed him didn't they?

- It's hard to say love.

- I sent it all to the labs.

- Seemed our best bet.

It might be nothing,

it might be the answer to
life, love in the universe.

- Man is not born to solve
the problem of the universe,

find out what he has to do.

- You've gotta stop reading
those ice lollisticks Peter.

- The beneficial societal
and ethical implications

of nano scale science
and technology are huge

but when you're dealing
with a tabloid culture

that can barely spell
genetically modified

but wants it banned how do you
begin to spread that message?

Nature is full of design
flaws that we'd like to fix

and in molecular nano-science
we're doing just that,

fighting mankind's oldest
enemy disease.

Our weapons, biochemical
compounds a million times
smaller

than a grain of sand.

- [Woman] Fran hi.
- Hi, I still haven't

had a chance to read
your paper I'm afraid.

Morgan thank you so
much for coming.

- Pleasure, it's a
great presentation.

- I know your face
from somewhere.

- June Gray, we met
last year in Seoul.

- You gave a presentation on?

- Molecular switches.

- That's right.

June Gray, molecular switches.

- [Man] Professor Cunningham.

- June Gray.

- And you are?

My god Peter [laughs]
Peter Pascoe.

I haven't seen since ...

- We graduated.

So '88 my god is it
really that long?

- Well you look well
on it though.

You're not in biochemistry
are you?

- The police.

- Oh I suppose your chief
constable or something are you?

We always thought you'd
float to the top of the pile.

- Well not quite there yet.

- Lovely reunion but
come on Peter, excuse me.

Professor Cunningham a word.

- You didn't pick
up your messages?

- I've been having phone trouble
so I haven't been able to.

Why are you here?

- You were the last person
to see Declan alive.

- Apart from Sam Wiseman
of course.

- Sam Wiseman.

- A student?

- We know who he is.

I saw them rowing in the
corridors as I was leaving.

- What about?

- I never lied, not to
you, to her or anyone else.

- I was in a hurry I was just
aware of their raised voices.

- Why had you gone into the lab?

- Just for tea and I was going
away for a couple of days

and wanted to check everything
was okay with Declan.

- You didn't discuss
his formal complaint?

- What formal complaint?

- The one Declan
made against you.

- I'm sorry you've lost me.

You sure your source
is correct Mr. Dalziel?

- Why would animal rights
campaigners target Declan?

- His work didn't involve
animals so they wouldn't.

- Yeah they did and no one
has been able to tell us

exactly what he was working on.

Why the big secret?

Found a way to turn
crap into gold have you?

- Not far wrong.

We're designing tiny particles
that will deliver drugs

through the skin without
migrating to the blood or brain.

- So they can attack
mutating or aging cells.

- If only my students
was attentive as you.

We're hoping to slow the
aging process right down.

- The secret of eternal youth.

- If you'd like.

- Be worth a few probably,
worth killing someone for?

- Since I'm the only person
who fully understands

the science that would make
me more of a natural target

wouldn't you think?

- Maybe you should
be worried then.

I thought that you said

Spicer had confirmed
that formal complaint?

- I said she was trying
to confirm it.

I doubt she'll have much luck.

And Cunningham would be a fool

to deny it if it was on record.

- She strikes me
as nobody's fool.

- I just wanna say
goodbye to June.

I'll be out in a minute.

- Mission accomplished?

- We need someone to analyze
the formula you found

in Declan's room I thought
June might be able to help.

- She's got your number.

You're turning into
quite the young lothario

aren't you Peter, well youngish?

- Why the digs about me
age all of a sudden Andy?

- All I'm saying is we're none
of us as young as we were.

It's time to think
about the future.

- Well think about your
own bloody future

and lay off will you?

- I am, I will.

Bloody hell it's
not even midday.

I thought it was more like five.

- Jetlag's kicking in.

- Pig's ass.

- Pig's what?

- Ass, they say it
all the time in Oz,

it's a bit like saying bollocks,

fancy a pint and a pie?

- We should get back.

- [Reporter] Science students at

West Yorkshire University
today called for the right

to use animals in what they say

are potentially life
saving experiments.

I'm here with spokesperson
Declan Roach,

Declan what's going on here?

- Medical research in
animals is getting us

blood transfusions and organ
transplants, new drugs,

it saves billions of lives.

If you ban experiments
in lab animals,

you're sentencing human
beings to death.

- [News Woman] This
event's turn sour

as county demonstrators
make their voices heard.

- So Declan and Wiseman were
involved in this together.

- Looks that way.

- This group's in favor
of animal testing.

- And the day after
that was on the news

Declan's family received the
first threatening phone call.

- Excuse me, I need the loo.

- Third door on the left.

- Oh can I go too?

- Yeah.

- I'm half tempted to wash
this muck off me face.

Toilet's this way love.

- I'm just having a look.

So many doors in this place.

- Yeah, what do you think
they're trying to hide?

- I have no idea look
we should go.

- Are you looking for
something ladies?

- Just the loo.

- I'm afraid you're
a little lost.

If you'd like to come this way.

- How did you know I was
linked to Science Saves?

- The website was registered
using your credit card.

- I thought I'd been
smarter than that.

- You're in charge of it?

- It's just me and my
laptop and the meeting list.

- So how did Declan fit in?

- It was his idea.

He was my lab supervisor and
we started talking about it

in the lab.

He said he was too busy so
I thought I'd have a go.

- Try to score yourself
some brownie points?

- Well yes but it's
a good cause.

It really is.

- You were seen arguing with
Declan just before he died.

- Who said that?

- It doesn't matter is it true?

- It was nothing,
he owed me money

and I needed it back because
I was broke that's all.

- Aren't you frightened
that whoever killed Declan

might come after you?

- You think he was killed
for being the public face

of Science Saves?

- Maybe.

- Well they haven't
found me so far.

- Yeah but we found you.

- Declan's bank statements.

- Anything on them?

- 20,000 pounds entered
his account a month ago

same day as the demo.

- His mom said he had student
loans, a huge overdraft.

- Yeah and Sam Wiseman
just told us that

Declan owed him money.

- According to those his
accounts are 300 pounds in
credit.

- Where did the money come from?

- Same company that's funding
Fran Cunningham's research,

Eternus Biotech.

- I wonder what you get for
20,000 pounds these days?

[hollering]

- I should get back.

- Stay another half an hour.

You need the break.

- 15 minutes.

- Whatever you think is best.

- Joe said to go straight
through he's expecting you.

- Thanks.

- Please look into the mirror.

- It's going well?

- Well let's just say we're
getting our money's worth

out of them.

- And no problems.

- One minor security issue
but I'm dealing with that.

I don't know what
you've put in this

but it smells good
enough to eat.

- I really wouldn't.

- How's this one looking?

- No obvious visible improvement
of skin surface clarity.

- But that's not to be
expected in 24 hours.

Her face looks a little red.

- Do you feel any tingling?

- No.

- Any burning?

- No.

- Excellent.

Looks like their ready for
their second application.

- Sets me in mind
of me in my youth.

- You should put some
of this on your face.

- I'd rather rub bleach
in my eyes.

- Gentlemen welcome to Eternus.

How can I help you?

- A month ago your company
paid over 20,000 pounds

into Declan Roach's
bank account.

- I wasn't aware of
that being illegal.

- Do you know about a
group called Science Saves?

- No, should I?

- It's a pro-animal testing
group Declan was involved with.

- Well I've never heard of it.

- So you weren't funding it?

- No but good for him if that's
what he spent our money on.

I'm all for it.

- Was he selling you details
of his research then?

- What industrial espionage,

now that would cost
millions not thousands,

I don't think our budget could
stretch to that. [laughs]

- So you were helping
a poor student

out of the goodness
of your heart?

- Shall we?

- He was coming to work for you.

- Once he'd finished
his PH.D. and assuming

he had got a distinction yes.

- You hand out 20,000 pounds
to all your graduate trainees?

- Good researchers
are hard to find,

Declan was gonna be great.

He was born thinking
like a scientist.

- A brilliant nano
Scientist working on a way

to stop the aging process.

If he come with the goods
20,000 would be cheap.

- A gamble still, it
was always a high chance

that he wouldn't.

- But he signed the contract?

- No we had a verbal agreement.

- One he could easily
decide to break

and that'd be 20,000 pounds
down the drain, ignoring that.

- Small beer Mr. Dalziel
what we're doing here

is worth millions.

- Why are you doing it exactly?

- 'Cause magic used to
be about selling a dream,

about making the customer
believe you had a magic potion.

One that would keep
her looking young.

- Now?

- Well technology is
finally catching up.

Human skin at 16 years of age.

No fine lines, no sagging,
no crow's feet,

you fast forward 20 years

life and gravity haven't
been kind.

You smoked, you drank, maybe
caught a little too much sun

or maybe you're just plain
unlucky with your gene pool.

- Some would call
that character.

- Yeah well the results
are still the same

you're looking older
than you wanna look.

- But what are you
doing exactly?

- We're trying a nano particle

that can regenerate
human skin cells.

- And kill off aging
and mutating cells.

Professor Cunningham's work.

- Exactly.

We're gonna give back to
these women in their 40's

the skin they had
when they were 17.

Aren't we ladies?

- [Ladies] Oh aye.
Spot on there.

- Well I like a woman with the
sense to grow old gracefully.

- With skin like yours I'm
not surprised love. [laughs]

You oughta try slapping some
of this stuff on your face.

[dark music]

- Oh come on.

We've got to stop this now.

Declan's dead the police
are sniffing around.

It's too dangerous.

- We promised people, people
you don't mess around with.

- I mean it Matt, this
isn't worth it.

- Okay, okay, we
finish this batch

then get this place
cleared up tonight.

But we have to deliver on this.

Deal?

- What can I do.

- Get the filters ready.

This stuff's almost cooked.

- All that talk of
curing cancer,

you're just coming
up with more crap

to sell to people with
more money than sense.

- Big research needs
big funding.

I don't make the rules
but that is how it works.

- So you came to Eternus.

- They came to me.

- But you're not
saving lives now,

you're just making skin cream.

- Eternus needs a
miracle product,

I need a backer with
very deep pockets.

There will be huge
benefits for my department

and the university,
everyone wins.

- Everyone except Declan.

- When Furst gave him
a job at Eternus

was he hired to work with
you or to replace you?

- You gave Declan a
job behind my back.

- We're growing fast
and need more staff.

- But one of my researchers
without telling me.

- He had a lot of sensitive
data locked up

in that little head of his.

I had to stop him from
going somewhere else.

- I own the intellectual
rights to all of this.

If he had tried to take it
elsewhere we could have sued
him.

- Listen Fran you and I both
know the way this world works.

I got out of research
because I was sick

of working for peanuts.

I couldn't risk Declan
doing the same.

- So you bought him off.

- Well the same way
I bought you.

- Maybe she was right,
perhaps if I slap that stuff

on my face people would
stop treating me like

I was ready for the
knackers yard.

- No one treats you like that.

- Somehow I got out of
sync with everything Peter.

I feel like a stranger
in me own land.

- You're just out of
sync with yourself Andy.

I wonder if June could tell
us whether they really are

onto something or if
it is all cobblers

as you so eloquently put it.

- June, June, June,
already looking

for your next reunion are you?

- Do you wanna talk
to her or not?

- Both Cunningham and her
student were on the payroll

of a biotech firm
called Eternus.

- Joe Furst.

- You know him?

- He's your typical shark,
failed academic

who circles our scientific
shores

trying to sink his teeth
into juicy money spillers.

- Strikes me like the
type that would

sell his grandmother's
skin for a shilling.

- How good is Fran Cunningham?

- She's well regarded.

She did some interesting
work on melanomas

a few years ago.

- And more recently?

- It's hard to say she's
been tantalizing us all

with hints of her grand project.

Her research is still a mystery.

That's the downside of
investment from the private
sector,

commercial sensitivity.

- So she doesn't have
to tell anyone anything.

- More to the point she
can't tell anyone anything.

- And neither can anyone
who worked with her

like Declan Roach.

Andy!

- Huh, oh.

[dark foreboding music]

- The lady on number
four is showing

a sustained temperature
increase of 1.2 degrees.

Do you think we should
take a look?

Her temperature's climbing.

- Could be her time
of the month.

- This could be an adverse
reaction Joe.

- Oh come on you ran test
after test on the ingredients

so we know that can't happen.

Got the experimental
data to prove it.

- No I proved it's
statistically unlikely

but that's what trials are
for to pick up glitches

we're picking one up, now we
have to put the trial on hold.

- Have you any idea how
much that would cost?

We're a month behind
schedule already

and hemorrhaging cash.

- A few week's delay
that's all I'm asking.

- No the trial goes on,
end of conversation.

[dramatic music]

- Layla it's Fran are
you in the lab?

Well I need you back there now.

I know the time I don't
want to argue.

Come now and make sure
Matt's there too.

[phone calling]

- What?

Alright, we're on our way.

Another student's been attacked.

Maybe you'd better drive.

- I was walking across campus

when somebody came
at me from behind.

- You were on your own?

- And there was only
one of them.

- Yep.

Before I knew what was happening

he had punched me to the ground.

- Did he say anything?

- Nothing.

I was terrified, I thought
that he was going to ...

- What?

- Nothing he jabbed a
syringe into my arm

and then he ran off.

- Are you gay Sam?

- Yes, why do you ask?

- Do you think the attack
could have been homophobic?

- This is about Science
Saves you speak out

and they come after you.

But I won't be intimidated.

- I'm sure they'll all make a
great speech at your funeral.

- He won't know if he's infected
for at least three weeks.

- Surely the blob
is HIV positive.

- If it isn't, it's
a very sick joke.

- Aimee?

- She has some nerve
treating us like this.

We are not her slaves.

- Layla, Matt glad you
finally made it.

- We were in the middle of
dinner if that's okay with you?

- I need you to rerun
a lab test for me.

- No problem.

- Check what happens when
200 nanometer particles

with titanium dioxide
enter the derma layer

alongside AP414.

- We looked at that
six months ago.

- And now you can
look at it again.

I could always do it myself.

- No you're grand, we'll do it.

- Thank you Matthew.

I'll be in my office
if you need me.

Is that virus off
my computer yet?

- I stayed late and zapped
it last night.

- Good.

- Aren't you welcome,
your highness.

[dramatic music]

- What are you doing
here so late?

- For god sake you scared
the living shit out of me.

I could ask you the
same question.

- I needed to check an
experiment I left running.

So what's this all about?

Declan mentioned
something to me,

something called Project
Aphrodite.

- Well he shouldn't have.

- He knew he could trust me.

- You think, trust wasn't
part of Declan's equation.

- What's that supposed to mean?

- Listen Sam I feel
horrible saying this

especially now but Declan
didn't care about you.

Not the way you wanted him to.

- He told you that did he?

- He didn't need to.

I saw the two of you,
the way he was with you,

same way he'd been with me.

All this, won every time.

- You're wrong.

- Just trying to be honest.

Kieran, Kieran, Kieran!

- Louise, Louise come on!

Come on Louise!

[screams]

[explosion]

[foreboding music]

[knock on the door]

- Come in Layla.

You can't have the results
for me already?

- I'm afraid I haven't.

What was Declan gonna
tell everyone?

- That he didn't like the
cut of my jip who knows?

- Now's hardly the time
to be facetious.

- Then I'm sorry I
really don't know.

- Declan was becoming
your rival,

he's younger than you,
possibly more talented,

certainly cheaper.

- Before Declan met me he
was coasting, I pushed him.

I made him work his boney
little ass off.

He was great because
I made him great.

The pharma companies were
cuing up to recruit him.

- I'll ask you again what
was he threatening you about?

- I really don't know.

- Okay play it your way.

- Do they know how it started?

- Not yet boss.

- She got out but he didn't.

- He was alone when it
started apparently.

[foreboding music]

- Hello?

[screaming]

[dramatic music]

- It's clear what killed her.

I suppose you want to
know did she fall

or was she pushed.

- Pushed, the question
is by who?

[dramatic music]

- You two were together.

- She come to my place.

- Leaving your husband alone?

- Yes asleep, I just popped
out for a few minutes.

- Any idea how the fire started,

you leave the oven on,
or a cigarette burning?

- I never smoked in
that house ever.

- Her husband's dead can
you just leave her be?

- I'm afraid I can't.

While you two were busy
fiddling her home was burning.

- You have no idea what
it's been like have you?

Watching your husband
turn into a stranger

and he's the only person
I can talk to,

he's the only one who cares.

- I'd be right to think
he offered more

than just a friendly
shoulder to cry on.

- Yes and I've needed that.

I spent the last month
living in fear,

I've lost my son and my husband

and you've got the gall to
stand there and judge me!

- What's the matter with
you are you made of stone?

- I'm a copper not a priest.

[phone calling]

Dalziel.

You were the last person
to see Cunningham alive.

The gargoyle of close
enemies pent in upstairs

I can understand but what

the hell were you doing here?

- She was gonna make a
fortune from Eternus.

Declan was threatening
to jeopardize all that.

She had good motive I thought
it was worth pursuing.

- When did stop working
as a team Peter?

- You went home Andy.

- And you managed to
get a signed confession

I presume before she
kicked the chemical bucket.

- She played dumb.

- Of course she did and
the great chorus?

- We've taken statements.

Joe Furst is demanding
that we let him leave.

- Furst was here?

- The mountain's coming
to Muhammad

something must have been up.

- Just a routine chat
according to him.

- One of those Bobs in there
is responsible for that mess.

- Sir you should see this.

It's from Cunningham's computer.

The hard drive's gone.

- She was working on
this when I spoke to her.

Which would leave a
two minute window

for her to have removed it.

- And it's definitely not here?

- Searched the whole office
and her bags, no sign.

- Assuming this was
done once she was dead,

then the information
on that disc

could be what her killer wanted

or didn't want anyone
else to have.

What were you doing back here?

We only dropped you
off two hours ago.

- Well Aimee wasn't in and I
didn't want to run the risk

of going to my place
so I came here.

- And you came here to find him?

- Yeah.

- Did you see anyone
when you arrived?

- No.

- What about you two?

- Fran called at quarter
past seven

and asked us to rerun
an experiment.

- Linked to Project Aphrodite?

- It was just a routine thing.

- That word again.

You were here for a routine
chat weren't you Mr. Furst?

- Yeah.

- Linked to this urgent request?

- I really couldn't say

there was no reason for her
to panic that I'm aware of.

- Funny I didn't see
you on my way out.

- I received a telephone
call as I arrived

I stepped into one of
the labs to take it.

- Which is where you were
when Cunningham fell?

- How did you get past
the security system?

- Someone let me
in as they left.

- And who was that.

- No idea.

A student I imagine.

I gave a description
to your colleague.

- Any idea why Cunningham

would remove her computer
hard drive?

- She wouldn't have,
she wasn't the sort

to get her hands dirty.

- Besides if Fran worked from
home she'd use her laptop.

And she'd back her work
up here on our VLE.

- VLE?

- Sorry virtual learning
environment,

it's the faculty's internet.

- Could anyone access
her files that way?

- No they're password protected.

- So am to gather that
no one here saw or heard

anything suspicious in the room

after Fran Cunningham's death?

Well in which case
you can go for now.

Just make sure you're all
available for our inquiries

in the morning.

Oh one last thing Spicer here
will need to check your bags

and pockets before you go.

- Who ever did it had plenty
of time to dispose the disc

somewhere around this building
before back up arrived.

- Yeah we haven't got the
manpower to launch that

kind of search right now.

- I wasn't suggesting we do.

- It's only a matter of time

before the whole
thing comes out.

- So what, we have nothing
to do with it.

- Yes we did.

We stood back and said nothing.

- It's not our place
to say anything.

We just keep our heads down
and do what we're told.

Haven't you worked that out yet?

- You never used to be so hard.

- I'm just being pragmatic.

I wanna finish my Ph.D.
and get out of here.

If we rock the boat now
do I have to remind you

how we've kept our heads above
water for the last two years?

- I'll shut up.

- Morning Peter.

- June's cracked the formula
you found in Declan's room.

- Keen isn't she, you're
lady friend?

- Are we working
as a team or not?

- What was it then?

- It's a recipe for
crystal meth.

- That makes sense, the
labs confirm the powder

I found it with it was the
very same, pure, high grade

better than you get from
your average dealer.

- Well Declan had high
levels of it in his system

when he died, maybe he was
producing it for personal use

or even selling it.

Wouldn't be the first
chemistry student to do that.

- There was no sign of a home
lab at his parent's place.

But he was deep in debt until
Eternus slung 20 grand at him.

- So why the formula

and how does it connect
to Cunningham's death?

- Has anyone seen Grace?

- Oh I'll fetch her.

- Thank you.

- Alright ladies onto your
beds please quick sticks.

- Grace are you in there?

Grace?

Grace they're waiting for you.

What is it?

- I don't know, it feels
like I'm getting a migraine.

- Well you should say something.

- No my bath was probably
a bit too hot anyway.

That's all.

Besides if I don't do
the whole eight days

I don't get paid simple as.

I'll be fine.

- Let me look at you a second.

- It takes 24 hours to go live.

There's nothing I
can do about it.

You'll have to wait.

Something I can help you with?

- We need all of Fran
Cunningham's files

from the system.

- What now?

- If that's not too
much trouble.

[dramatic music]

[alarms]

- And nobody saw where she went?

What do I pay you people for?

- Posh haven't had
a chance of a chat

since I've been back have we?

- No sir.

- So enjoying work?

- I've learned a lot
from Mr. Pascoe.

- Oh he's a good
one he is Peter.

- You enjoyed Australia?

- Oh wonderful put me in mind
of Yorkshire 30 years back.

- Hotter though I imagine.

- Oh [laughs].

- And I've checked Fran
Cunningham's phone records

and in the last 48 hours
she received over

6,000 calls to a mobile
and land line.

- She's started putting
her cards

over in phone boxes had she?

[laughs] Call this number
for a good time.

- Well the phone company let
me listen to the messages

and her voicemail.

- Anything useful.

- They all relay it
to the collapse of

the Starbury Christmas Club.

- The one that went under
about five months ago.

You're losing me there Posh

I mean what's this gotta
do with Cunningham?

- Well someone had posted
her numbers on websites

and in spam emails
saying she was

the managing director
of Starbury.

- I take it she wasn't.

- No sir some kind
of malicious hoax.

We're trying to trace
the source now.

- You took your time.

- Fran Cunningham's
Project Aphrodite files

has to be unscrambled.

- This is buggered
all use to us.

- Actually I think it might be.

I don't think her research
is all it's cracked up to be.

- Listen Einstein you may
have gone to university

but you don't know the
first thing about this

- I know about stats.

Cunningham was getting
perfect results every time.

Statistically that's
almost impossible.

That might be what Declan
was blackmailing her about.

- University authorities
feel it is best if we

continue with business as usual.

It's what Fran would
have wanted.

Of course if you'd
rather not be here.

- No I should be if
it's business as usual.

- Good well you and Matt can
cover Fran's classes today

and I'll work out
an interim rotor

before a formal decision is
made about replacing here.

- And what happens to her
doctorate program in the
meantime.

- As soon as I know you'll know.

- So I should continue
with the work

that Fran requested yesterday?

- If that's the best
use of your time yes.

That's all I can say Layla.

- I think Cunningham
could have been faking it.

- Oh there's so much
pressure to get results

and never enough time
to get them right.

Especially with a machine
like Eternus behind you

begging for you to tell
them what they want to hear.

- So this kind of thing is
common in the bio med world.

- She wouldn't be the first.

Fran Cunningham's famous
research, finally.

I have to say this is like
finding the Holy Grail.

- How long do you think you'll
need to make sense of it?

- To give a reasonable analysis
hours rather than days.

- Perfect, well anything
you need just ask.

- Thanks Peter.

- Well don't thank me you're
doing me a huge favor.

Although it's obvious
you're dying to see

what Cunningham was up to.

- Am I that transparent?

- Peter there's something
wrong at Eternus, come on.

So when did you first notice
this woman had gone missing.

- About 30 minutes ago
she cleared out her locker

and the car's gone
from the carpark.

- You said her name
was Liz Reid?

- Yeah she passed all
our security checks

but then I found her snooping
around here yesterday.

- And you didn't say anything.

- Well I got our security
people to check her out again

but they didn't get back to me.

Meanwhile I put it down
to natural curiosity.

- Yeah we all know what
killed the cat.

- My staff found traces
of contaminates

in the cream we were testing.

Looks like our trial
might have been sabotaged.

- And you think the woman
who's gone AWAL is responsible?

- Of course.

- Joe, there you are.

- Can it wait I'm in
the middle of something.

- No it can't!

Her condition rapidly
deteriorated,

core body temperature's
dangerously high,

she's tachycardic,
blood pressure dropping.

- What's causing the blistering?

- Some kind of toxic reaction.

- [Pascoe] And she's the
only one reacting like this?

- Yeah, we need to get
her out of here.

- No, no, no, she stays here,

we've got all the medical
support we need.

- We don't have the facilities
to deal with this ourselves,

we have to get her to
a hospital right now!

- I'm still in charge and
this matter can be ...

[moaning and choking]

- Call the bloody ambulance now!

- Her immune system has
completely collapsed.

We've given her huge
doses of steroids

but she's not responding.

- This has happened because
the trial was sabotaged?

- It's impossible to
say at this stage.

Of course if she'd been
brought in earlier.

- There was no reason
to bring her in earlier.

- So she went from being
perfectly healthy

to this in a matter of minutes?

- She'd mentioned a slight
headache yesterday afternoon.

- Which might explain
Cunningham's panic last night.

- And you let the trial go on?

- It wasn't my decision.

I gave a full report
to Mr. Furst

but he insisted she was
fine to continue.

- Can she survive this?

- We'll do what we can
but this is unprecedented.

We simply don't know
what's going to happen.

- The missing Reid woman,

she had had the same
cream applied hadn't she?

- Yes.

You must find her, she
could be in real danger.

- When will these fools learn

there's no such thing as
a secret of eternal youth.

- We should all grow old
gracefully like you you mean?

- We're born and if
we're lucky we grow old

and then we die, you
can't fight it.

- That a cheery philosophy
on life.

- That woman in there
would probably have lived

to hell of a lot longer
if she have accepted it.

- I doubt if that poor
woman in there

were in it for her looks.

She's just human grist
of the mill.

- Aren't we all Peter,
aren't we all.

- Oh god you're depressing
me Andy.

- Because I'm too
close to the bone.

You're getting old,

the worst thing is you're
turning into me.

- Bollocks.

- I rest my case. [laughs]

Shot at me soon enough though.

- Oh spare me another bleak
reference to your leaving

as if you'd ever actually go.

- I'm going alright and about
as far away as I can get.

- Australia for good, you're
dyed in the world Yorkshire,

this place runs in your veins.

You're going nowhere.

[somber music]

- Love can you hear me?

- You're breaking up.

- You were right I don't
know what the stuff was

but one of the people in
the trial is really ill.

- I can't hear you.

Mom?

- Oh shit.

[somber music]

- She's driving a blue
Renault Clio 2001

registers to a rental
firm in Salterton.

- Alright in her name?

- No by a man who paid cash.

Turns out the driving license
he used as I.D. was stolen.

- [Andy] Let me guess Mrs.
Reid isn't her name either?

- The Liz Reid she's claimed
to be is a teaching assistant

living in Doncaster.

Her husband swears blind she
was at home all last night.

So her references and the
forged medical report,

it's spot on.

Gives her the ideal profile
for the clinical trial,

a non-smoker, right age,
right body mass.

- Sir we've got positive
match on the prints found

on the locker at Eternus.

- Snap, so who is she?

- Helen Hobbs, minor
driving offense in '91,

based in Weatherton
single with two children,

Aimee and Thomas.

- Aimee Hobbs, isn't
she the friend of that

Science Saves idiot?

[knocking]

- She got a call that
woke us both up.

But it was early so I
went back to sleep.

You just woke me.

- You and Aimee you
seem very close.

- We never used to be.

- She's not someone I
though I'd be friends with

but somehow we've ended up
being yeah I guess close.

- Does she have anything
to do with Science Saves?

- She helped me out now and
then did some photocopying,

put some posters up.

- So she knew exactly
what was going on?

- Yeah but we could trust her.

She's a bit of an idiot
but harmless.

- Did she know how involved
you and Declan were?

- She knew about our
relationship if that's what you
mean?

- I meant involved
with Science Saves.

So you and Declan were lovers?

Why didn't you tell
us this before?

- No one knew I thought
I should stay quiet.

- He's been murdered,
your silence, it ...

What did you really row
about the night he died?

- I never lied not to you,
to her or to anyone else.

- He was having an
affair with Layla.

I got a bit jealous I suppose.

- And it got heated.

- A bit, he walked away

that was the last
time I saw him.

I promise.

- [Andy] She doesn't
have a computer here?

- She says she couldn't
afford one,

she always uses the
computer labs.

- Aimee Hobbs here we are.

Well what a model student,
excellent attendance record,

she always gets her
projects in on time,

her grades aren't
outstanding but.

- Well what does that matter

if she hands her
work in on time?

- Yeah, yeah, well we cater
to all levels of ability here

not everyone can be a Fran
Cunningham or a Declan Roach.

- She had security access to
the lab where Declan died.

- As a member of the
department she has full access

at all times yes.

- She was also in the building

when Cunningham fell
to her death.

- I know.

If you knew her, well
I can't believe that

she'd be responsible
for something.

- It's possible her mother
sabotaged the trials at Eternus.

Which I establish a link

between her and local
animal rights groups.

- Fran Cunningham was
also the victim

of an internet hate campaign

and we now have reason
to believe that Aimee

might have launched it from
a computer in this building.

[dramatic music]

- Ben?

- Mm.

- Ben?

- What?

- These officers need to
speak to you about spam emails

concerning Fran.

- Oh that.

- What do you know about it?

- Now it's just a
joke wasn't it?

I didn't mean any harm, my
timing was just a bit off.

- You did it, why?

- I was sick of the
smug cow always

talking to me like I was dirt.

Everyone here they all
treat me like I'm invisible.

- So you thought you'd
bring her down a peg or two.

- I wanted her to see
what it was like

to be unpopular that's all.

- And you know nothing about
Fran Cunningham's hard drive?

- Nothing, look I swear,
I admit to the spam,

I was stupid but I have nothing
to do with anything else.

- Is there someone else who
can help us with Aimee's files?

Ben will need to go
with my colleague.

- Ben what's this?

- Declan just logged
on at workstation 12

in computer lab three.

[dramatic music]

- Hi.

- You just logged in using
Declan Roach's user I.D.

- His files were password
protected and I needed

to check something.

We used each other's
logins all the time.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize
this would be such a big deal.

- His files are a part
of a police inquiry.

- What were you thinking?

- I'm carrying on with Fran's
research like you asked me to.

I needed to check some of
his results against mine.

- Who else knows Declan's
password?

- Matt does I think.

- Where's he now?

- I have scheduled him to
cover Fran's second year

lab practicals.

Where's Matt?

- He was here a second ago.

- Matt stop there!

- Yes it's reference code
Juliette uniform 8923 kilo
delta.

Yes I was just wondering

if there's any news on
my application yet?

A working visa.

A working visa.

Oh tomorrow then.

Uh, yes thank you.

Yes?

- You're not planning on
leaving us again are you?

Back to Australia.

- Have you ever been?

Oh you should go.

Yeah I spent day after
day at the cricket,

eating pies, sinking
pints of the sunshine.

Oh the atmosphere.

You know I haven't had
that much fun since

oh well I don't know
how long. [laughs]

Mind you cricket was crap.

You know the first match ...

- Sorry sir I've got
to get back to my desk.

The Roach flat fire report,
you said it was urgent.

I'll miss you sir,
you make me laugh.

[dramatic music]

- The daft why did
he do it himself?

- I'm sorry love, that's
the official conclusion.

- But those bastards
set fire to our car,

they've threatened our home.

- The fire started
in the kitchen,

the windows were still
locked as was the front door.

There was no one else involved.

[sobbing]

I should've never ...

[sobbing]

When he was first diagnosed
I thought

at least it can't get any worse.

But that's life for
you isn't it,

full of big surprises.

I shouldn't have left him.

- You were his wife
not his guardian angel.

- You changed your
tune haven't you?

You blamed me, everyone
else will.

They'll say I should
have been there,

that I was off with
my fancy man,

that I left my own
husband to die.

- So let them say it,

you know that's not true.

[dramatic music]

- Where is she where's my mom?

Look I don't know who
you are but tell me

or I'll go to the
police right now.

I mean it tell me or I'll
tell them everything I know.

- An email from Declan Roach's
account sent three days ago.

- I've already told you that
I've never seen this before.

- I think you logged onto
the West Yorkshire University

internet as Declan Roach
and sent it Cunningham.

Your silence could be
viewed as obstructing

a murder inquiry Layla.

- Yes I sent it.

- Why?

- It was supposed to be joke.

I knew she and Declan
weren't getting on well

and I thought it would be
funny to watch the sparks fly.

- A joke?

I don't believe you.

- You should, it's the truth.

- But it would only
work if Cunningham

really was covering
something up.

What did you want her to think,

that Declan was questioning
the validity of her research?

- I don't know.

- You don't know.

You wanted to spark off world
war three in your department

and let Declan take the blame

and now he and Cunningham
are dead.

- I told Declan about the email.

He liked a joke as
much as anyone.

- And he saw the funny side.

- Well he said he didn't care,

Fran couldn't do a thing to him.

- Because Eternus had
already employed him.

- I guess.

- Or because he knew something
about Project Aphrodite.

What was it?

I don't know.

- And I don't suppose you know

why Matt's done a runner either?

I'll take upstairs.

[dramatic music]

- What is it?

- Found this sudafed
tablets, lithium batteries

and iodize salt which are all
used to make crystal meth.

- Well I'd say you'd found
our source wouldn't I Posh?

- Any luck tracing Helen
Hobbs, Aimee Hobbs,

better sources anything?

- No sir.

- Well put a fire
under it you lot.

I'm only asking you
to find a couple of

two bit local activists
on the road in Wetherton,

not a summer flaming Bin Laden.

I don't suppose you located

the Bin Laden sisters have you?

- Can you a forensics to take
a look at whatever's on these?

And make clear it's urgent.

- Coffee filters?

- Oh I think we've
found the remnants

of a crystal meth factory
at Matt and Layla's place.

- That could be something
to do with the formula

in Declan's room.

- Well either he was
involved or he found out.

Either way it's unlikely
to be a coincidence.

- Once again the two
amigos were involved.

Maybe you were right.

- Sorry I'm not interrupting
am I?

- No, of course not.

- No of course not.

What did you want
to tell us love?

Surprise, surprise
so Fran Cunningham

wasn't a nano-tech
messiah after all.

- Well she might have been
if she'd taken the time

to work things out probably.

- Instead of rushing for a
big public eureka moment.

- This was her big discovery.

The AP414 molecule was
the active ingredient in

Project Aphrodite, small
enough to pass through

the skin's dermal layer and
cross the blood barrier.

This was supposed to
revive the skin cells.

Only her research shows that
in reality it was inert.

- She expected it to do nothing.

- It would have no effect
on cells whatsoever.

- Hardly the secret
to eternal youth

she was marketing then.

- So who else knew about it
besides Fran, Matt, Layla?

- What about Joe Furst.

He wouldn't want his
shareholders finding out

they been investing
in snake oil.

Cunningham was killed when
she threatened to derail

Project Aphrodite.

Perhaps he thought Declan
was gonna do the same.

[moaning]

- Mom?

[foreboding music]

Mom?

Oh my god mom?

Mom, mom!

[moaning]

Ambulance now it's mom,
it's my mom she's dying.

- The crystal meth we
found at Layla and Matt's

is exactly the same chemical
composition as the stuff

you found in Declan's room.

- So they were cooking
out for their friends.

- Thousands of friends,
judging by the quantity

of ingredients we found.

- Time for another word
with Madame Meth in there.

Can we be honest with each
other for the moment Layla?

We know that Cunningham
was a big fake.

- What?

- Are you trying to
tell me you didn't know?

- Know what?

- I'm getting really bored
with the ignorant act love.

- It's not an act, I've just
spent two and a half years

researching this for my Ph.D.

If it's fake all that hard work

will be completely worthless.

Are you sure?

- 100%.

- That must be why
she was asking us

to rerun the experiment.

- So you're saying that
wasn't a routine request.

- No, it was strange.

She wanted to know what
happened if AP414

was combined with
titanium dioxide.

- Why do you say it's strange?

- Because it shouldn't
bind with other particles,

that's the point.

- Sounds like you're
a good chemist Layla.

- I'd like to think I was.

- What do you say I could
make with this little lot.

- Titanium dioxide.

Of course.

- What?

- It's a white pigment
used in sunscreen.

There's a debate waging about

whether it toxically
builds up in cells.

- What's that got
to do with this?

- Well Cunningham's
useless molecule was

so small it wouldn't be
detected by the immune system

but if it combined with
titanium dioxide

inside cells it might.

- And then the immune system

would start to attack the cells,

like as with Grace Beck.

- Sir we've located Aimee
and Helen Hobbs.

- Grace Beck showing
signs of stabilizing

but this one is in
a much worse state.

- She's go the same symptoms?

- More or less, fever,
low blood pressure,

her internal organs have
collapsed to a much greater
degree

due to the extended
length of exposure.

- What would you say her
chances of survival are?

- As low as they can get.

She's going to need
a miracle now.

- [[Posh] You've been
bailed to appear in Court

in three weeks time but we
may still need to speak to you

regarding the murders of Declan
Roach and Fran Cunningham.

You're lucky to get bail Layla

they're sending dealers
to jail for life.

- Hello Aimee.

I'm really sorry but
we're gonna need

to ask you a few questions.

- Have you seen my mom?

- We have.

- How is she?

- Not looking good

but they will do everything
they can for her.

- Do you know what
your mom was doing

out at that cottage Aimee?

- It was the rendezvous
point if anything went wrong.

- If anything went
wrong with what?

Come on Aimee, your mom's in
a terrible state in there,

now's not the time
to hold things back

whatever you can tell us
might help to keep her alive.

- If anything went
wrong at Eternus.

- What was your mom
doing at Eternus?

- They told us it would be easy.

We were only trying to help.

- [Andy] Help who?

- The animals.

They told us it was
harmless just something

to mess the trials up
and set them back.

We never wanted to hurt anyone.

- Who's they?

- The people in this
group mom was a member of,

War on Testing.

- You weren't a member.

- No I never spoke to
them before today.

Mom gave me this number and
said I was only to ring it

if things went wrong.

- But you knew that these people
were targeting your friends

Sam and Declan.

- We weren't friends.

Declan taught me now and then,

Sam just wanted my
lecture notes.

- So that's why you
hung around them

so you can report back
on Science Saves?

You left a needle containing
HIV infected blood in that lab.

Your friend was attacked
with a similar needle,

how can you put another human
being through that torment?

- I'm sorry it was stupid.

I swear mom and I, I'll admit
to everything we've done.

We told them when and where
Science Saves was meeting.

We let the rats out in the lab.

I mean it we had nothing
to do with Declan

or Professor Cunningham's
deaths.

[dramatic music]

- Matt, I wasn't expecting you.

- We need to talk.

- Yeah but I can't
imagine what about.

I assume you've heard the news.

- I know all about it.

- [Joe] The trial's collapsed
what more is there to say?

- I want my money.

- [laughs] That's a joke.

What money, speak
to my creditors

because as of today Eternus
is closed for business.

- We had a deal.

- Yeah well the deal
is off Matthew.

All you had to do was get me
Fran Cunningham's hard drive

and stop this getting out
but you failed to deliver

so I don't think I
owe you anything!

[screaming]

What are you doing!

[moans and groans]

God what are you doing?

What, what ... [hollers]

[panting]

- You pay me.

- No, no you've gone mad.

No, [yelling].

- I have gone mad, so
pay me or I'll kill you.

- I haven't got anything left
don't you understand that!

[yells]

- Hosting him by his
own petard, I see.

There's a police car outside

with your name on it Mr. Hurley.

My colleague here
will escort you.

[grunting]

- Gotta get me to a hospital?

You saw what he did to me.

- Have you used sunblock
in the last three months?

- No.

- Then relax, come here.

- I don't believe it, I
saw all of Fran's research.

- Of course you did
you funded it.

- Co-funded Project
Aphrodite was a joint venture

with West Yorkshire.

- Then they'll have Grace
Beck and Helen Hobb's

deaths on their conscience
as well.

- They'll survive this,
I'll go under.

- Is that all you're still
bothered about, the money?

You never gave a damn about
the lives of those volunteers.

- I didn't think we were putting
them in any kind of risk.

I still don't understand
how this could go so wrong.

- Grace Beck and Helen Hobbs
were both outdoorsy types.

That's how.

- What you mean?

- They both used high
tech sunblock.

And they both suffered
an adverse reaction when

the sunblock's titanium
dioxide combined with AP414.

- How how were we meant to know

something like that
could happen?

- Wasn't it your job to know?

Peter.

We've had to bail Hurley.

- You're joking.

- I wish I was but
the little bugger

had a particularly
slippery lawyer.

Anything to report?

- Ah the results came back
on the blood in the syringe

that Sam Wiseman was attacked
with it was negative.

- We've better let the lad know.

- Yeah I already have.

Let's say he took it well.

- Techies have managed to
put Fran Cunningham's phone

back together.

- Anything on it?

- Just voicemail messages
and texts about the collapse

of the Starbury Christmas Club.

- What about that tape
recorder thingy?

- What?

- You know she did that
thing, earth to Dr. Spock.

- Oh well I don't know
if that's been checked?

- Let me see.

- [Fran] Another to self
check with Dan Gaston

about DNA repair enzyme R8054.

June Gray molecular switches.

Shanghai Seminar March 23rd.

I don't want to have this
conversation again Layla.

- [Layla] Then I'll go public.

- [Fran] Then you'll
hear from my lawyers.

- [Layla] But you can't
steal my work.

- [Fran] Too late.

[screaming]

- What are you doing back here?

- Salvaging Project Aphrodite.

- Two women are almost
dead in hospital

no one's interested in Project
Aphrodite anymore Layla.

- But I know the formula works.

- It doesn't, give it up.

- It does I just let
her think it didn't.

- [Matt] What are you on about?

- I worked it out.

But Cunningham wanted
all the glory.

So I deliberately played
with the formula

so it didn't do what
it said on the bottle.

- Declan worked that out?

- He still got the money though.

- You killed our
friend and Fran.

You're responsible for ...

[screaming]

- [Andy] What did
he have to say?

- That she effectively
confessed to the murders

of Declan and Cunningham.

- She give her reasons?

- Professional jealousy.

Cunningham got all the glory,
Declan got all the cash

but she felt entitled to both.

- It's a terrible thing
to lose face.

What a shambles and all because
of this incessant obsession

with youth and money and power.

- That's all part
of the same thing.

Power brings money, and
money can buy you anything.

- Not everything.

Hey the price of bloody
drinks in here, ridiculous.

- Come on Andy why are we
here, I need to get home.

- I've got some news that should

well it might put a
smile on your face.

- What is it?

- The thing is I've
decided to move ...

Oh speak of the devil, hang on.

Dalziel speaking.

Oh good day mate.

No, no, I really appreciate
you calling me back so late.

That's alright mate yeah.

Too old.

- You weren't seriously thinking
of immigrating were you?

- Don't be daft.

Why would I want to
leave this place?

- You never would
that's my point.

So stop talking bollocks.

See my malt double.
