Mother,
why are we in the therapy room?

It is singularly inappropriate.

I'm agoraphobic.
Since when?

Since 20 minutes ago.

Have you see the flotsam that
accumulates in places like this?

Yes. I am one of them.
Mother, why are you here?

Oh, dear heart,
I'm here because,

other than what I read
in the newspaper,

I am completely in the dark.

My dear boy, don't you realise
the damage you're doing

to your reputation?
The university have passed

your students over
to Professor Haiden.

Some of the dons are choosing
to interpret your silence

as an admission of guilt.

There are moves afoot,
Jasper, to cut you loose.

Are you protecting someone?

I've now had a full statement
from Simon Lanesborough.

"When I arrived
at the Police HQ,

"DCI Brand was waiting
with a police-issue Glock 22,

"which she aimed at my face.

"She deliberately lured me
to her office."

What deal is he asking for?

None of that is true.

RECORDING: 'I'm still at
the office, working late.

'Why don't you come by
when you've finished doing

'whatever you're doing?'

You're saying
you didn't lure him?

You're playing games.

was about to shoot me,

"I turned to leave,

"only to be confronted

"I was caught

"It was obviously planned."
You and Professor Tempest,

according to Simon Lanesborough,
you were lovers.

I'm DI Donckers.
This is DS Winters.

Hi.
I'm the father of the...

That's my son, Graydon,

and my wife Catherine

Your colleague, I believe,
is by the pool.

And who's the young woman?

That's Rosemary.
A friend of Graydon's.

The deceased was Greta Parkes.
Greta Hall for a few hours.

25 years old. Her parents died
in a car crash when she was 17.

No brothers or sisters.

The wedding ceremony reception
was held in the hotel,

all paid for by Reverend Hall.
He introduced himself.

Britain's top televangelist,
apparently.

Mm.
And this is where she drowned?

She could've drowned
in the bath, dumped in the pool.

The postmortem will answer that.
What I'm hearing is,

she went for a swim
middle of the night,

new husband's fast asleep.

Initial findings,
no obvious signs of a struggle.

According to the guests
I spoke to,

Greta didn't drink,
didn't take drugs.

She was found 6am
by one of the hotel cleaners.

Mm.
Are we treating it as murder?

Until we know otherwise,
a suspicious death.

Wilfred, if there's one thing

Indeed.
And you know I will not plead.

If it meant forfeiting my life,

I would never demean myself
by pleading.

Well, forbearance
is the hallmark of your creed.

Are you quoting?
Of course not.

Well, why do I find myself
in a situation

where I'm compelled to advise
my oldest friend

that he has the power to ensure
the wellbeing of my son?

Adelaide, I'm not sure
what you're asking me to do.

Is it the appointments board
that's got you in a frit?

No.

Well, then, you can ensure,
as dean of the college,

Jasper's position
is not under any threat.

But if the court
rules against... Oh, yes,

that his tenure should hang on
the whim of some capricious,

too-many-sherries-at-lunch
judge?

Adelaide, I've already petitioned
the appointments board.

I found myself
in a minority of one.

Hines started asking
about Jasper. Lanesborough

claims he aimed the gun
at his head, pulled the trigger.

If he hadn't grabbed the barrel,
he'd be dead.

No. His prints
are all over the barrel.

Jasper doesn't need to know.
There's no need to worry him.

He's about to get charged
with attempted murder.

Hines is just trying to scare me
into confessing.

That's not gonna happen.

What's he got to gain
by charging Jasper?

A scalp.

Hello, Graydon, mate.
Do you wanna take a seat?

Wanted that perfect picture.

How long is this gonna take?

Would it be possible to access

it's returned to you.

Yes, yes, of course.

Just so you know, I've spoken to
each of the families.

You can be sure
of complete cooperation.

I was her bridesmaid.

Best friends
since primary school.

I don't think it's any secret
Greta had a troubled past.

She'd been expelled
from one school.

It wasn't a big deal.

Greta joined our church
about a year ago.

WOMAN: She'd lost her parents.
Wanted answers.

She reached out,
and by the grace of God,

turned her life around.

My father showed her
the path to Jesus.

We lost touch for a while.

I was so pleased
when I got the invitation.

Why does God
let things like this happen?

I don't usually drink alcohol.

I must've fallen asleep.
Something woke me up.

Greta wasn't there.

I heard a scream.

When I got closer,
I realised it was a body.

People say I screamed,
but I don't remember.

Mm. Look, I don't wanna throw
any shade or anything,

but you need to be talking

You've wangled another

I'm gonna have a word
with the governor

and put a stop to this. Go on.

At our previous meeting,
you talked about the scaffolding

that you'd built
around yourself.

Yes.

At some point,
scaffolding comes down...

..to reveal the building
underneath.

The scaffolding
is not the building.

Those rules
that you gave yourself,

the rules are not you,

I may be about to lose

This self that we construct,
it's one of the chains that,

But when it's not

it can be destructive.

I'll take it, put her through.

Dr Goldberg.

Er, yes, I was hoping to speak
to DCI Brand.

'DCI Brand isn't here.
I'm DI Rabbit.'

Right. Well, I'm calling
on behalf of Professor Tempest.

How can I help?

If you could use his expertise,

an official request
to the prison governor

would allow him some hours of
respite from his incarceration,

and that...

Er, yeah,
I don't think that's...

To feel useful would make

a massive difference
to his state of mind, you see.

The case we're working on
is an accidental death.

Right, OK. Sure.

'Well,

Until yesterday,

you worked as a cleaner

Oh, if something

No comment.

You were caught stealing
from the room of Greta Parkes,

as a result of which
you were fired.

No comment.
That was before the wedding,

but earlier this morning,
around 5am,

you were seen back at the hotel.
Why?

I wasn't. Who saw me?

How did you feel

I didn't come forward earlier

Of what?

I was listening outside.
SHARP INHALE

Why?

I knew she'd lie.

And did she?

She said she was invited.

But she wasn't?

Of course she wasn't.
She's Graydon's ex.

They didn't want her there,
but she's, like, maleficent.

She turned up, anyway.

Dan,
I'm just putting you on speaker.

Apparently, Rosemary wasn't
just a friend of Graydon's.

She was his ex.
She turned up uninvited.

'You bringing her over?'

I thought I'd talk to Graydon
first, see if he confirms it.

Dan, the techies have unlocked
Greta Parkes's phone.

I'm biking it over.

OK.

'Search-trained officers have
been through Fabian's flat.'

Found a bag of clothes,
expensive stuff.

Nametags matching
some of the wedding guests.

Also, a lock'n'lock with enough
coke for an intent to supply.

'You think he killed
Greta Parkes?'

He was there. He had a grudge.

How long can we hold
the guests for?

'Good question.

'We've got two suspects
and we're up against the clock.

'I'm bringing in the professor.'

How?

You ever seen The Great Escape?

So, Graydon.

Rosemary Parrish...

..she wasn't invited.

That was an oversight.
She was more than welcome.

How long were you with Rosemary
before you met Greta?

We were friends
at secondary school.

She was part of the church.

And then Greta came along?

Turned your head?

How did Rosemary take it?

When we split up,

I let a respectable amount
of time pass

before I asked Greta out.

How long's a respectable amount?

I know this might sound
ridiculous to you...

..but young people who don't
have sex before marriage...

he used the same technique.

..advice about a situation
you know little about.

DOOR CLOSES

HE SIGHS
Jasper Tempest...

..you're charged
with the attempted murder

of one Simon Lanesborough.

You do not have to say anything,

but it may harm your defence
if you do not mention

when questioned something which
you later rely on in court.

Do you have anything to say?

No.
