ROLLINSON: Sorry -- They just
told me you wanted someone else.

Message didn't
reach me in time.

Nothing personal.

So you think this
is connected

to Dr. Lorrimer's death?

I know it is.

Oh, no.
Miss Foley's friend.

Off the record, what would
your first impressions be?

Oh, they'll be the same
as yours, I expect.

Dead for several hours.

No sign of manual throttling,

but it could be there
under the cord.

The stool is where
I expect it to be.

If it were murder,

someone would have
come up behind her

and throttled her
into unconsciousness

and strung her up.

I've never seen it before,

but if you ask me now,
I'd say suicide.

There's someone coming
from Ipswich.

Won't be long.

Thank you.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

Sir.

I thought it was going
to be Brenda.

They said she was missing.

She fainted after she had
discovered the body last night.

Poor Miss Foley.
Is someone with her?

Yes. You didn't tell me
about this place.

HOWARTH:
Well, why would I have done?

It was pointed out to me
on my first tour of the grounds,

but no one's used it in decades,
as far as I know.

But they have,
haven't they, Miss Howarth?

Yes.

This is where we used
to meet --

the Scientist and I.

Marginally more comfortable
than the back seat of a car.

And used the hymn board
to arrange your assignations.

"Assignations."

Yes.

17th of February at 6:40.

I suppose that was
our last meeting.

It was his idea.

I thought it was a touch
over-the-top at first,

but actually it worked
rather well.

I had set the times
and he'd always be here,

waiting in the candlelight.

All intense,
like a biblical prophet.

Did anyone else know
you came here?

No.

Did you ever get the sense
of being seen or watched?

Well, I rather wish I had.

MERCER: They've picked up
DI Doyle, sir.

Asleep in his car,
side of the road heading north.

He's at the station.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

[ Theme music plays ]

Why was a car registered
to your wife parked under trees

outside Hoggatt's Laboratory
on Tuesday night?

The night Edmund Lorrimer died.

Who says it was
Tuesday night?

Could have been any time
on Tuesday or Monday.

It didn't rain on Monday night.

- We have a witness.
- What witness?

Were you behind the wheel,
or was your wife?

Or shall I ask her?

I was.

I've been driving
the Cortina all day

because the clutch
has gone in mine.

I was with someone.

A woman.

It's not something
I do very often.

The wife and I have been
going through a rough patch.

She's taken herself off
to her mother's in Yorkshire.

On Tuesday night,
I couldn't bear

going home to an empty house,
so...

Jane Ashton.
WPC Jane Ashton.

She works here in the office.

We drove to the trees
outside the Lab.

It was the nearest
sheltered spot.

Go easy on her, okay?

What time did you park
outside the Lab?

Around 9:00.

We were there
for 20, 25 minutes.

I'm not as young
as I used to be.

Were there any lights on inside?

No. I wouldn't have stayed
if there had been.

I actually remember thinking

"Even that pedantic old
bastard Lorrimer's gone home."

Did you see anyone enter
or exit the Lab?

No one. But I was busy.

Okay, look, I know I should
have told you this.

I'm sorry, but look at it
from my point of view.

Some big shot gets sent over
from the Yard,

and I have to tell him
that I was at a murder scene

getting my oats.

You know I didn't kill Lorrimer.

- I don't know that yet.
- DOYLE: If I had killed him,

I wouldn't have left
a bloody mallet at the scene.

Which is what you would
want me to think.

You have no evidence.
You have no motive.

You're one of the few people
Lorrimer would have admitted.

One of the few people
with the opportunity to replace

the keys in his pocket
on Wednesday morning.

- DOYLE: What?
- Or you could have used the set

which is kept here
at the station.

- No, no, no.
- DALGLIESH: Where were you

last night between the hours
of 6:00 and 9:00?

Last night?

I was in the pub
until 8:00 -- "The Carpenters."

We charged the husband
with the Clunch Pit murder,

so we went for a few beers
to celebrate.

You can ask any of the lads.

What time did you arrive
and leave?

I arrived around 5:30.

I left 8:00-ish.
I went straight home.

And at what time
did you decide

to drive off on the road north

with a packed suitcase
in the boot of your car?

I was going to see my wife.

Okay?

Surprise her.

I got myself into a lather,
all right?

What can I tell you?
When I drink, I get sentimental.

I went home, I packed a bag,

I got in the car, I left...8:30.

And I quickly realized
I was too pissed to drive,

so I pulled off the road.

Next thing I know, Traffic
are banging on the window.

Do you know someone called
Stella Mawson?

No. Why?

Your clothes and car are
under forensic investigation.

I hope for your sake
you've told me the truth.

DOYLE: I'm two years away
from my pension.

Don't make any more of this
than you have to, yeah?

[ Dramatic music plays ]

DALGLIESH: Mrs. Pridmore.

Doctor's just left.

He says she's okay,
but don't stay long, please.

We won't.

Are you all right?

No, I'm not.

It's a mess, isn't it?

Two dead bodies
she's found now.

People round here,
they don't forget.

And they're apt
to be superstitious.

She'll be labeled bad luck.

And then there's that money.

The money Dr. Lorrimer
left for her.

How do we explain that to folk
when they find out?

It's for the purposes
of her education.

There's no reason for people
to read something into that.

But they will.

I was sure there was someone
behind me coming for me,

and I kept thinking about
Dr. Lorrimer's face

on the floor of the Lab
and how that was gonna be me.

But you didn't
actually see anyone,

and no one called out to you?

No. No. I could
have been imagining it,

but then I thought
about my bike tires

and how -- how weird it was
that they were both punctured.

And I thought someone
must have done it on purpose

to make me take the shortcut.

We looked into that.

A lorry full of grit
shed its load near the gates

to the Lab early
yesterday morning,

and both your tires
have shards of grit in them.

Oh, right. Sorry.

It was a clever thought.

Earlier, you told me that
you'd gone towards the chapel

because you saw some lights.

Yes.
And the door was open.

Did you see anyone at all

near the chapel
or in the chapel?

No, There was no one. Sorry.

Did you recognize the woman
who was hanging?

Yes.

I'd seen her before.

A couple of months ago.

There was a concert
in the village.

She was there.

She was called Sarah, I think.

Did she kill herself?

We don't know yet.

MISKIN: Brenda, we need
to ask you once again

about your relationship
with Dr. Lorrimer.

- Is this because of the money?
- Yes.

BRENDA: Mum and Dad
are furious about it.

They want me not to take it.

But he never did anything.

He didn't fancy me.
He wasn't like that.

He just liked me
because I was interested.

Other people
didn't really get that.

I know he could be rude
to people, sometimes angry,

but it was only
because he was so busy and --

and he cared so much
about his work.

Are you thinking of anyone
in particular

when you say
he could be rude to people?

No, no, I just --

I just mean, generally.

Mum and Dad don't want me
to go back to the Lab.

- They want me to leave.
- Well, that's your choice.

You're 18.
You can do whatever you want.

No, I can't.
I want to go to college,

get some A-levels,
maybe study forensics.

MRS. PRIDMORE: You're gonna
catch him, are you?

Whoever's doing this.

'Cause she won't get any peace
until you do.

I think Brenda will be fine,
Mrs. Pridmore.

She's intelligent and brave.

In my experience,
people react differently

to the sort of thing
she's been through.

Some people become
excessively fearful

and their world
becomes small, limited.

Some people face up
to their experiences,

find strengths
they didn't know they had.

Move forwards.

And embrace life.

I think that's what Brenda will
do if she's given the chance.

MRS. PRIDMORE: Is that right?

Well, she's my daughter,
and you don't know her.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

We tried, sir.

I don't like
potential going to waste.

I grew up in this part
of the world.

Did you?

I know how insular
some of the people can be.

Inevitable.

My father used to say
it was all down to geography.

It was easy for me.

My parents wanted
to make everything possible.

But I know how lucky I was.
Privileged.

What you said yesterday
about Angela Foley,

about no one giving her a break,

I hope you know that I'll always
give you a break, Sergeant.

- You already did.
- But moving onwards,

in your career.

If there's anything
you want to achieve,

if you want
extra skills training

or to be fast tracked
into a particular unit...

Are you trying to get rid
of me, sir?

[ Mid-tempo music plays ]

[ Engine starts ]

ANGELA:
You're not going in there.

MERCER: I need to look in there.
Stand aside.

ANGELA: Why? Why?

MERCER:
Part of the investigation.

ANGELA: But she wouldn't
want you in there!

She never let anyone
in there apart from me.

They're trampling all over her.

MISKIN: It's all right, Angela.

ANGELA: It's not.

DALGLIESH: DS Miskin will make
you a cup of tea, Miss Foley.

I'm going to have
a brief look in there.

I won't touch anything
unless I have to.

[ Somber music plays ]

What was the last thing
she said to you

before she left
the house last night?

She said she was gonna
make everything all right.

DALGLIESH: And what did you
take that to mean?

So she was gonna find
a way to get the money

to help us buy this place.

- DALGLIESH: Huh?
- I don't know.

Is it possible that Stella

was planning
to blackmail someone?

No. She would never.

You don't understand
what she was like,

how -- how good she was,
how moral she was.

She hated injustice.

She hated what my family
did to me just because I was --

Because I didn't have a dad.

And she wanted to make it right
and make me happy

and...

she wanted me to have a home.

So what did she intend to do?

I don't think Stella
took her own life.

I can't prove it yet,
but that's my instinct.

This is her
life insurance policy.

It was in the desk.

You're the beneficiary.
But like most policies,

it has an exemption
in the case of suicide.

I don't care.

But Stella would have cared.

She would have known,
and she would have cared.

She would also have known
that she was the key

to your happiness,
not bricks and mortar.

Nor do I believe
that any novelist

in their right mind
would kill themselves

when they're just a -- a chapter
or two from finishing a novel.

What is it that you're
not telling us?

Nothing.

Is it possible that Stella knew

or thought she knew
who killed Dr. Lorrimer?

Any way that
she could have found out?

Did she, in fact,
go out on Tuesday night,

- even for a short time?
- No.

I told you,
she was here with me.

MISKIN: Angela, when you arrived
to look after old Mr. Lorrimer

on Wednesday, did Stella
go into Lorrimer's bedroom?

- No.
- MISKIN: Might she have seen

something there that could have
suggested who'd killed him?

No. She never went upstairs.

DALGLIESH: Is it possible
that she was involved

in Lorrimer's death?

A momentary fit of anger,
perhaps.

ANGELA: No. She would never.

She would never harm anyone.

Why are you saying all this?

I need to be on my own.

Please.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

MISKIN: Let's say Stella did
know who killed Lorrimer.

She contacts the killer
and asks to meet them.

Would she be that foolish?

MISKIN:
She was a confident woman.

She could have thought
she had things covered.

Proof stashed away somewhere.

Or...

she killed Lorrimer.

She saw him with Domenica
in the chapel,

and it was her that made
the whispered phone call

to Lorrimer's house.

And then Lorrimer agrees
to meet her.

Go on.

So she comes to the Lab
and tries to blackmail him.

And things get out of hand,
and she kills him.

Like you say, a fit of rage.

And then she can't live
with what she's done.

We have no forensics to place
her at Lorrimer's murder.

Would she really think
to wear gloves?

And wipe the mallet for prints?

And why would she leave
the weapon at the scene?

Because she heard Bradley
coming out of the toilets.

Panicked.

She hears Bradley
and she hides here.

And Bradley comes out
of the toilets,

sees the body,
and runs straight downstairs.

Sees Doyle's car arriving
and takes his chance,

sneaks out the front door
and away.

And Stella,

she's also seen
the car headlights

and thinks that someone's
gonna come into the Lab,

and she searches the first floor
for a way out,

finds the window in the toilet.

DALGLIESH:
How does she reach it?

And how would she get down
the wall on the other side

without injuring herself?

It's a 20-foot drop.

Okay.
She doesn't use the window,

but she stays in the toilets,
cowering.

And it gives her time to think.

And things grow quiet,

and she hears the car drive off.

And then she comes back in here,
wipes the mallet --

But doesn't take it?

And then she finds the keys
in Lorrimer's pocket.

She sets the alarm,

locks the door behind her.

And then she confesses
to Angela,

gets her to get the keys back
into Lorrimer's pocket somehow,

make it look like an inside job.

I know it's all conjecture.

They're all useful thoughts.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

Okay, let's get back
to the facts.

Why would she go to the chapel
to end her life?

Someone with
an existing connection

to that chapel must be involved.

Someone who knew
where to find a tie or a rope.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

Hello?

Miss Foley?

It's DI Doyle.
You wanted to see me?

Strange kind of welcome.

Why don't you put that down?

Do you want to tell me
what this is about?

You killed Stella.

And now --
now I'm gonna kill you.

I haven't killed anyone, Angela.

Dalgliesh questioned me
first thing this morning.

He's released me because
he's got nothing on me.

I have alibis for both nights.
He's checked.

Here.
You call him if you want.

There's a note on that table.

Pick it up and read it out.

I've got a copy.

"You'd better check
the cannabis exhibits

when DI Doyle is around.

How do you think he managed
to afford his house?"

- Where did you get this?
- ANGELA: Stella had it.

It was sent to Edmund Lorrimer
at the Lab.

She must have found it
in his house.

You killed her because she knew.

She knew your secret.

And she tried to blackmail you.

She arranged to meet you at that
chapel, and you strangled her.

Admit it!

DOYLE: I can tell you
who wrote this.

It was my wife.

She wants me to
resign from the force.

She's sick to the back teeth
with it.

The hours,
what it does to my head.

She thought what better than
a bit of official harassment

to push me into leaving?

No one would have taken
this seriously, Angela.

She knows that.
And even if they did,

they wouldn't have found
any evidence.

But you were doing it.

You were taking the cannabis
and swapping it

- instead of destroying it.
- I never said that.

And they -- they might
have started watching you,

gathering evidence.

Over a bit of cannabis
going astray?

ANGELA: It's not a bit!

I've seen seizures
that come into the Lab.

You are way off.

Please put that down.

No.

Do you think this is what
your friend would have wanted?

Rough justice?

[ Crying ]

I was really sorry to hear
that she died,

but I had nothing to do with it.

I swear to you.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

[ Telephone ringing ]

- Brenda.
- Hello, Mr. Howarth.

I wasn't expecting you
to come in today.

How are you feeling?

Is Inspector Dalgliesh here?

Do you think she might
have found something else

when she found this?

Some other info
about someone?

I don't know.

She went out
the night Lorrimer died.

She went for a walk.

She often does at night
when she does her best thinking.

But she must have
seen something.

Something she shouldn't
have seen.

Did you tell Dalgliesh?

I think you should tell him.

BRENDA: Thanks for trying
with my mum.

I heard what you said,

and I hate it
when she's like that.

It's mortifying.

She loves you
and she's trying to protect you.

BRENDA: But it's not her life.

I don't want to be told
what to do.

There's something
I haven't told you.

It's not a big thing,

but I don't feel right
that I haven't said.

I saw Dr. Lorrimer having
an argument with someone.

It was last week,

and I'm pretty sure
it was Thursday.

You know Dr. Rollinson,
don't you?

- Yes.
- Well, he has two children.

- Nell and William.
- Yes.

Well, they came into the Lab
last week looking for their dad,

and he was in a meeting,

but they said
they wanted to wait,

so they stayed in the reception,

and Dr. Lorrimer came down
the stairs, and he was --

he was in a bad mood, I suppose.

He was busy.

And the little boy
was playing with his ball,

and it was going everywhere.

And Dr. Lorrimer was shouting
and he was saying,

"Children aren't allowed
in the Lab."

And he told them
to wait outside,

but Nell said
that they wouldn't.

And she was getting very angry.

And -- And he didn't --
he didn't touch her, exactly,

but he sort of
drove them outside.

And then he slammed the door
behind them.

And Nell was really,
really upset.

And so was the little boy.

Did Dr. Rollinson
see any of this?

BRENDA: No.
No one else, except for me.

This morning, you mentioned
that you saw Stella Mawson

at a concert in the village.

Can you tell me more
about that evening?

Yes. It was
a fundraising concert,

and Mr. Howarth
was playing his violin.

Classical stuff.

I remember it was the day
after Valentine's Day.

And she was sitting
with Miss Foley

and who else?

And Mr. Howarth's sister
who's the beautiful one.

I don't know if you've met her.

And Dr. Rollinson.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

Have the exhibits from the
chapel left for the Yard yet?

They're being picked up
in about five minutes, sir.

Where are they?

Mr. Bradley.

I need you to run
a test for me.

Really?

Could we speak to you inside,
please, Miss Howarth?

Christ, please stop
with the Miss Howarth.

Do I look like your maiden aunt?

I wrote your statement for you.
Max has got it.

DALGLIESH:
It's not about last night.

Surely not about Lorrimer.

I've told you everything
there is to know --

DALGLIESH: Not your relationship
with Lorrimer.

It's about what happened next.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

[ Brakes squeal ]

[ Breathing heavily ] God.

You okay?

William?!

MISKIN: He's okay. Don't worry.

William! Get away from him!

Get away!
You could have killed him.

- Calm down.
- Why are you here?

Go away and leave us alone.

MISS WILLARD:
Nell, stop that at once.

What are you thinking?
Where were you?

You were supposed
to be watching him,

you useless, drunken old hag.

You're sacked.
Pack up your stinking things

and get out of our house
and never come back.

You don't tell me what to do.
You don't employ me.

- Yes, I do.
- Your father does.

We'll see what he has to say.

He'll sack you.
He hates you too.

We all hate you.

You nasty, horrible little girl.

I'll tell you
who your father hates.

It's you. You're the bane
of his existence.

This custody battle
he's fighting --

Do you think
he's fighting it for you?

He isn't. It's William he wants,
and only William.

- Be quiet, Miss Willard.
- NELL: You're lying.

My dad loves me.

[ Laughs ] Oh, really?

He wants you
to go to your mother.

I've heard him say it.

He hates you,
like everyone else.

That's enough.

[ Somber music plays ]

MISKIN: Nell.

You shouldn't take any notice
of what she said.

She was very angry
and she wanted to hurt you.

I'm sure your dad
loves you very much.

I like your bedroom.

David Cassidy.

He's very good-looking,
isn't he?

NELL: I don't like him any more.

He's embarrassing.

I had someone
really embarrassing on my wall

when I was about 8 or 9.

Shall I tell you who it was
or do you want to guess?

Bay City Rollers?

[ Laughs ]
Probably worse than that.

Cliff Richard.

I knew you were gonna say that.

Who do you like now?

10cc.

Oh, they're good.

Do you consider that
an appropriate way

to speak to a child,
a child in your care?

She's not a child.

- Not really.
- She's a child, Miss Willard.

She knows how to rile me.
Knows exactly what to say.

I meant it when I said
she was a nasty girl.

Because she is.

Has this sort of confrontation
happened before?

What you said
about Dr. Rollinson

only fighting
for custody of William --

- Is that true?
- MISS WILLARD: It should be.

If he wasn't so kindhearted,

he'd have sent that girl
to her mother,

- and good riddance.
- Where is their mother?

London, I believe.
Best place for her.

When did she leave?

January before last.
She's living over the broom

with that doctor
she met at the hospital.

She's not a nice woman,
and Nell is exactly the same.

Dr. Rollinson is a lovely man.
A gentleman.

But he's too easily manipulated,
especially by women.

He needs protecting
from himself.

Has he been seeing any
other women since his wife left?

I'm giving you a chance
to speak honestly to me.

If you don't,
we can go to the station

and I can do this more formally.

It's been seeing that hussy.

Domenica Howarth.

We heard about how mean
Dr. Lorrimer was to you

at the Lab when you were
looking for your dad.

I was really sorry
to hear about that.

I hate him.

I'm glad he's dead.

I'm glad I made him die.

What do you mean, Nell?

How did you make him die?

MISS WILLARD: He'd started
going out in the evenings,

even when he wasn't called
by the police or the hospital.

And I could smell something
on his clothes -- perfume.

So I looked in his room one day
while he was out,

for his own good,

and I found a letter from her.

It was disgusting.

Some people have no shame.

I worked out where they were
meeting -- that old chapel

in the grounds
of Hoggatt's Laboratory.

Can you imagine? A place of God.

Did you speak to Dr. Rollinson
about what you'd learned?

MISS WILLARD: No.
How could I have done?

Did you speak to anyone
about it?

I told Dr. Lorrimer on one
of our journeys to church.

I knew he'd share my opinion.

Dr. Rollinson is --
is still a married man.

I thought Dr. Lorrimer
could speak to him,

make him see sense.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

I smashed his head in.

Then the witches made him die.

Does your father know
about these?

No one knows.

Did you mention to your dad
about Dr. Lorrimer

being mean to you at the Lab?

NELL: He said
I should forget it.

He said I should be
a bigger person.

You didn't go back
to the Lab, did you, Nell?

You didn't try --

I mean actually try to
hurt Dr. Lorrimer?

No. I didn't need to.

MISS WILLARD:
Dr. Lorrimer was very shocked.

So shocked
he pulled off the road.

He was reluctant to believe me.

So the next morning,
I got the bus into town

and I walked to that chapel.

Well, I could tell
they'd been in there.

There were candles
and matches and --

and the -- and the hymn board.

She'd made a sort of a joke
about it in that letter.

And I looked at it,

and I worked out
what they'd been doing.

They'd been using it to set
the times of their meetings.

Can you imagine?

And you told Dr. Lorrimer this?

Yes, I telephoned him
that evening.

Then, of course, I realized that
little madam was eavesdropping,

so I had to ring off.

You told me that Dr. Rollinson
was at home on Tuesday night

all evening from when he arrived
home at 7:15.

- Was that true?
- Yes.

Sergeant, would you please
go and fetch a Bible

- from Miss Willard's room?
- Yes, sir.

Don't.

He did go out briefly.

He had a meeting
at the hospital.

What time was that?

After dinner, about 8:30, 8:45.

Do you know where
Dr. Rollinson is now?

The police called for him
about an hour ago.

I don't know where he's gone.

Go and sit in the kitchen,
please. Stay there.

He wouldn't have done
anything untoward.

Go and sit in the kitchen.

He knew about
Lorrimer's argument with Nell.

Nell hates Lorrimer
with a vengeance.

Lorrimer knew that Rollinson
was seeing Domenica.

Telephone the station, please,
and let's find out where he is.

And get them to
send a uniform here.

I want this place searched.
And a WPC.

Sir.

He's at the Clunch Pit.

The girl who died there --

looks like her boyfriend
killed himself.

[ Indistinct conversation ]

Sad case.
Just goes to show, doesn't it?

We've been calling him
her fancy man.

Her bit on the side.
Turns out he really loved her.

Loved her so much,
he's done this.

"Boys throw stones
at frogs in sport.

Frogs don't die in sport.
They die in earnest."

Shakespeare?

Plutarch.

Do you love her?

Who?

Domenica.

I met her at a concert
in the village.

So bloody beautiful.

There's this energy
that comes off her.

She said she had a thing
with Lorrimer.

I couldn't believe it,

but she said it was over, so...

And then he started to give me
looks a couple of weeks ago,

glaring at me
like he wanted to...

And then he was vile to Nell
and to William,

and I realized
that he must know,

but I thought it would pass.

That he'd just get over it.

And then Monday night,
when I came here,

he said he wanted to talk,
to sort it out.

Told me to go to the Lab
Tuesday night, 9:00.

I should never have gone,

but I thought it might help.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

[ Car approaches ]

[ Engine shuts off ]

You can't go any further.

DOMENICA: Stupid man.
Don't talk.

Don't talk.

I never intended to harm him.

The things he said about
my children, my work, Domenica.

He got hold
of my wife's address,

traced it through the doctor
that she's living with.

Said he would write to her
and tell her about the affair

so she could use it
to win the divorce

and get the kids off me.

He'd written the letter already.

Said he'd post it the next day

if I didn't promise
to stop seeing Dominica.

And then he turned
his back on me,

dismissed me
like I was done with.

Lost control.

The mallet was there.

I didn't mean to kill him.

Do you have kids?

No.

Well, then you can't
understand the love you feel,

the things that you'll do.

And Stella Mawson?

A completely calculated killing.

You even had
the presence of mind

to adjust the month
on the board.

I never set foot inside
that chapel until this morning.

I didn't even know it existed.

Unfortunately,

I have forensic evidence
which proves otherwise.

Hairs -- two short, one long.

On a velvet cushion.

Preliminary tests show
that the short hairs

come from two different heads.

Lorrimer's, presumably,
and yours.

I expect further tests
to confirm.

That doesn't prove anything.

I think a jury
will find it interesting.

Proof that you knew
about the chapel,

that you would think of it
as a place to lure Stella.

I didn't lure her anywhere.

She was blackmailing you,
wasn't she?

I take it she saw you
leaving the Lab,

scaling down the wall
from the window by the toilets?

Not that difficult
for an experienced climber.

Why did you do that?

So that you could lock the door
from the inside, set the alarm,

make it look like
an insider job.

A confession will count.

[ Somber music plays ]

Help me to help you.

It wasn't blackmail.
Not really.

She only wanted to borrow money.

She said that she was sorry,
but she really needed it.

Said that she would pay it back
with interest.

She knew.

She knew that I...killed him.

One word from her to anyone,

and I would have
lost my children.

Would have lost everything.

I didn't know her.

I didn't know
if I could trust her.

I couldn't just
let her walk away.

I couldn't. I...

I couldn't take that risk.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

We're gonna need
a further statement from you,

so go back to your house
and stay there until we call.

You know, you should be careful
how you look at him.

Your Chief Inspector.

It's written all over your face.

Unless you want him to know.

What do you mean?

[ Dramatic music plays ]

[ Car door closes ]

10 minutes.

Thank you.

[ Somber music plays ]

[ Both crying ]

Why are you leaving us?

ROLLINSON: I'm so sorry.

Daddy has to go away.

You all right, sir?

Yeah.

Forgive me.

[ All crying ]

NELL: Please.
