[dramatic music]

- Detective
Inspector John Major.

The most decorated officer
in the history of SIU.

Instrumental in the most
daring undercover sting

in SIU history,
Operation Bluefinch,

where his life was cut short
by a senseless criminal act.

[sirens wailing]

[guns blasting]

[heroic music]

DI Major's record made
him the only candidate

for our pioneering AI and bio

cyber engineering
regeneration initiative.

Humanity and technology
in hot pursuit

of the far horizon of policing.

[John clapping]

- Clearly we're witnessing
a significant breakthrough

in technology here.

- Thank you
Commissioner Chalmers.

I actually made it on my phone.

- I meant the AI Project.

- Indeed.

- Well it's the duty
of this committee

to decide whether the AI Project

should continue or whether
it should be retired.

- No pressure then, aye?

- Try and remember what we
said about you staying quiet.

- How much did this project
cost the British taxpayer?

- We made every
efficiency possible

while remaining true to the
integrity of the project--

- I'll rephrase.

How many human police officers

could have been employed
with that money?

- I am a human police officer.

- Really, so no x-ray eyes?

No laser beams?

- No, just good
old-fashioned police skills.

Same as any other copper.

- Then why are we spending
all this money on you?

- That's why it's best to shush.

- What about the
moral implications?

- Aye?

- This rampant scientism will
invite a heavy reckoning.

For all we know this is
the dawn of a new era

of unmitigated
super-intelligence

with no ethical
dimension whatsoever.

- Thank you very much,
obviously that is the dream.

- [Helen] Let's ask the
sidekick shall we, DI Carter.

- Carver.

- Sorry?

- Press your button Roy.

- Carver.

- Based on your
experience with DI Major,

are you worried about the
threat of super-intelligent AI?

- Not really no.

- Cheers mate.

- Look I've worked with DI
Major for over ten years.

The best cop I've ever met.

And in my opinion, damn lucky
to have him on the force.

Whatever the cost.

[emotional music]

- If he's such a paragon, he'll
be able to quote section 12

sub-paragraph 5a of the
new police regulations.

- That's not the kind of thing
that he's programmed to--

- Officers shall not in the
pursuance of their duties,

act in such a way as to
jeopardise the well-being

of the general public.

- Impressive,
word for word DI Major.

- Thank you ma'am.

- How'd you do that?

- Like you said,
best cop that ever lived.

- Don't think I said that.

- I'm the one with
the perfect memory.

- Best cop I ever met.

- I'm the one with
the perfect memory.

- Met.
- Lived.

Met.
- Don't.

[upbeat music]

- That went well,
good work mate.

- Thanks, it's all down
to intelligence, instinct,

and having it written
down on this bit of paper.

- Yeah, see you next week, bye.

So how did I do?

- Thank you ma'am.

Very helpful.

- I'm strictly impartial,
obviously but, entre nous,

let's not let the
Luddites prevail.

- Right!

No, didn't understand
any of that ma'am.

- Any progress on finding
the pond life that shot him?

- It's difficult to tell ma'am,

case has been assigned
to other officers.

- Shit ones.

- They're looking for an
informant in a vehicle.

- Liam Cleasby and a red Jeep.

- Yeah.

- [Helen] Seen driving
into an industrial estate,

the address is on the back.

- Where did you find this?

- I'm a retired Commissioner

of the Greater London
Police Force John,

I can still pull the
odd string you know.

But this is strictly
sub rosa and on the QT,

anybody asks, you play dumb.

- It shouldn't be
a problem ma'am.

[dramatic music]

- [John] Shit, there's
what's left of the Jeep.

- Since when were
you bezzie mates

with Commissioner Chalmers?

- [John] She was my first boss,

always had a soft spot for me.

- Did you?

- What?

- You know, you seem close.

- So, you and me are close,

doesn't mean we had
sex on a trestle table

at the department summer picnic.

- Very specific.

- This won't tell us anything.

- It's telling us
something already.

They waited a whole year
to torch these wheels.

So they must know we're
looking into it again.

- Yeah but this
is off the books.

Who'd know we were looking?

- Look who it is, Randall
and Hopkirk deceased.

- [Roy] What are
you two doing here?

- We could ask you
the same question.

- Why would you ask us
what you're doing here?

- No, I mean we could ask
you what you're doing here.

- Well I might ask
the same thing of you.

- It's called
police work Gilbert,

you should try it some time.

- If you stop contaminating
our crime scene, maybe we will.

- You made any progress?

Any idea where Cleasby is?

- I have got one lead, you
might be interested in.

- Go on.

- You can use it to charge
your phone off yer head.

- Two uses of the word lead!

[John sarcastically laughing]

[tense music]

- It's Dennett, she wants us in.

- Wankers.

[tense music]

- Ah, Judy, we need any
available drone footage

of Stanley Park
Industrial Estate.

- Sorry, can I just say, Judy
works on the first floor.

- Two Judy's, oi,
don't you worry,

you're the only one for me.

- No but--

- Enjoy your lunch.

- You heard the committee,

half those bastards wanna
cancel this project.

Be in no doubt, that
means switching you off.

They wanna turn the
lights out, pull the plug.

Take the batteries out,

put you back in the box
where you came from,

restore factory settings--

- Yeah we know boss,
we were there.

- Well I won't have it,
I'd resign first.

- Thanks boss.

- I mean not resign, obviously
but I'd kick up a stink.

Send some very
strongly worded emails,

I've actually drafted one if
you, if you wanna read it?

- No that won't be necessary,
John's gonna prove his worth.

- Well, here's your chance.

There's a very nasty
target for you to bring in.

- That scumbag won't
know what's hit 'er!

- I admire your attitude Major
but she's not the target.

Meet her grandson, Paul Latimer.

A violent criminal
currently at large.

Granny's on her deathbed

and we think he might
pay her a visit.

- And when he does,
we pay him a visit?

- Exactly.

I want round the clock
surveillance
on the old dear's house.

- We'll take her down guv.

- Him, take him down.

- Oh we'll bring
you both of them.

- No,
I really only want the man.

- You shouldn't have showed
him the old woman first boss,

it sticks in his head.

- [John] 15:32 hours,
no sign of suspect.

[something squeaking]

- What are you doing?

- New hobby.

It's meant to help my
dexterity and motor skills

and it helps me get
through the nights.

- How are you sleeping?

- Sleeping,
AI's don't sleep Roy.

Waste of taxpayer's money.

- You don't sleep at all?

- Gives me time to
think about stuff.

The future.

My so-called marriage.

- How are things with Kelly?

- She was saying how she
left her job when I died.

Did a college
course or something.

- Counselling.

- Aye?

- I think, I mean, I dunno.

- It's like she moved on.

- Oh look be fair John.

You know, the year you were
dead she had to keep on living.

You know, she had to get
out of bed every morning,

eat a bowl of granola
with her bananas

and blueberries, natural
yoghurt, little bit of honey.

Or whatever she has, I mean,

I don't know what she
has for breakfast.

You know, I mean face the day.

- Makes me wonder what
else she got up to.

- What d'ya mean?

- I think she met someone new.

- Why do you think that,
what's she said?

- Nothing.

- So why do you think she's
sleeping with someone?

- Sleeping,
I never said that, Jesus,

do you think she's
sleeping with him?

- No, no,
I mean I don't know, no!

- How about you?

- Me?

- Have you ever seen her?

You know, have you ever
seen her with anyone else?

- No, no I never saw
her with anyone else.

- Well we'll find out soon.

- What do you mean?

- We'll see what she's up to.

- Well this address
you've given me,

it is the old woman's
house isn't it?

- No, I put us on the five
o'clock shift for that.

- So where the fuck are we?

- Kelly's on a home visit,

doing some of her
so-called counselling.

- What,
we're spying on your wife?

- No it's not spying if she
doesn't know we're 'ere.

- That's what it is spying!

I'm not doing this.

- What you doing?

- Get off!

- No just just calm down!
[horn beeping]

Just, relax.

- Tit.

- 15:34 hours, suspect
is walking towards car.

- Shut up.

- Yep, suspect is entering car.

- Are you following me?

What's going on?

- Have you been seeing someone?

- Yes I have John, yeah.

- Behind my back?

- Well it wasn't
behind your back.

Technically it was
over your dead body,

but John you asked and it is
important for me to be honest.

- Sometimes honesty isn't--

- This is nothing
to do with you Roy!

- I'm not ashamed
of what happened.

You were dead and I was
trying to keep being alive.

- Who is he, what's his name?

- His name's not important.

- Roy,
will you please stay outta this?

- Roy's right.

His name isn't
important because...

[sad music]

It's over between me and him so.

- [John] Are you sure?

- [Kelly] Yes I'm sure.

- Does the bloke know that?

- He's an incredibly
good and decent man.

He understands the difficult
situation that we're all in.

- [scoffs] Decent man.

- Right well,
I have a client so.

John, no more spying, yeah?

- I thought I saw a squirrel.

- We're on surveillance
'til the early hours,

best try and get some sleep.

- I told you, I don't sleep!

Look,
let's go and find the bastard

that's been seeing Kelly.

We're detectives Roy, we can
do this, we can track him down!

- Kelly's right John,
it's best to let it go.

Like it never happened.

- Oh,
that's easy for you to say,

you have got no idea the way
that I'm feeling right now!

- I guess it feels like
the most precious thing

you've ever had in your life

just slipping
through your fingers

and the tighter you hold
on, the faster it slips.

[sad music]

- I was just gonna say sad.

- Well there's only one
person to blame for this mess.

So let's find the
bastard that shot ya.

- You're a decent man Roy.

You understand.

[engine roars]

[exciting music]

[dogs barking]

I know it's our only lead

but Cleasby's not gonna be
'ere is he,

he knows we're looking for him.

- Never underestimate
a suspect's stupidity.

[tense music]

[gun cocking]

[gun blasting]

- Jesus!

I think he's got a knife.

- Police, drop your weapon!

- [Kristof] Sorry,
didn't know it was you.

- Put your hands
behind your head!

- You're under arrest.

You do not have to say anything

but we may harm you if
called upon to do so.

- Major.

- No hang on, I've got it.

We do not have the
right to harm you

but we may do so
no that's not it.

- Major, it's him, it's Kristof!

The dealer from the
night you got shot!

- Never carry guns
and ammo together,

it's like taking a fox and
chicken across the river.

- You're the one that set me up.

- No, I mean yes,

but I didn't know they
were gonna shoot ya.

- Bollocks.

- It's true.

Look, they're after me as well.

Why do you think I'm
living like this?

- Where's Cleasby?

- I don't know.

Look, I heard you were back
and I'm came looking for you,

you're the only one
that can help me.

- Oh is that why you
greeted us so warmly is it?

- Sorry, it was a reflex action.

Like a frog carrying a
scorpion across a river.

- What?

- The scorpion kills the frog

because it's in his nature so--

- Yeah I don't give a shit
about scorpions and frogs,

just tell us who's
behind my shooting.

- I already told you
before you got shot.

- Give me a name.

- What?

- Can't remember
what you told him.

- You can't remember?

- Refresh my memory for me.

[tense music]

- The Juggler.

- The Juggler.

- Major, who's The Juggler?

- I dunno,
I've never 'eard of him.

- Who the fuck's The Juggler?

- I don't know,
I thought you'd know.

- Hang on!

I think I got it.

- Go on.

- Well, it's a nickname innit?

Like a criminal alias.

- As opposed to a
man in a leotard

throwing pineapples in the air?

Course it's a fucking alias,
whose alias?

- Well the person
behind the shooting.

- Oh Jesus fucking wept.

- Look, I can find out for ya.

Look, give me a few
hours, I'll get a name.

- Oh you think we're
gonna let you go?

- I'm dead if you take me in.

Look, there's bent
coppers in your unit.

- Oh let me guess, the
sword-swallower and the bearded
lady?

- It's your choice,
I'm offering to help.

- Don't make us
come looking for ya.

- Don't forget your gun.

Get out!

- The Juggler, right,
let's get back to SIU,

check out the aliases.

Ah shit,
we're due on surveillance.

- Right, you do the
surveillance, I'll go to SIU.

I'll put up a sign,
Circus Skills Workshop.

- Second thoughts, you
do the surveillance.

- Okay then.

[tense music]

- Yeah, that's the thing.

- Help you out with something?

- [Roy] No, it's fine.

- Where's Major?

- On surveillance.

- Alone, is that wise?

- I'll tell you what's not wise,

you not letting the poor bastard
get any sleep, it's cruel.

- Wait, what are you talking
about, not letting him sleep?

[engine roaring]

[John snoring]

- Major.

Major.

[horn beeping]

Major, Major.

Open the fucking door.

- Don't just stand there,
you'll attract attention.

- How long have you been asleep?

- I wasn't asleep.

Yes, I briefly closed my eyes
so as to appear inconspicuous.

- By banging your
'ead on the horn?

- It's so people would notice
me being inconspicuous.

- Well if you wasn't
asleep, what have you seen?

- Very quiet, minimal activity.

One incident where Mrs. Latimer

appeared at the window
holding an armful of snakes.

Which I'm aware
sounds like a dream

but if I was asleep,

how did I make this
giant balloon rabbit?

- In other words,
you was asleep?

- I wasn't aware of it.

- How can you not be aware?

- That's what asleep means.

- Well it's good practise

for when they switch you off
altogether for being shite.

Oh brilliant.

- Are you men watching my house?

- No love.

- Nothing for you to
worry about Mrs Latimer.

- Oh.

- How do you know my name?

- Look, it's all right
go back inside love.

- Honesty is the
best policy Roy,

like Kelly said, it's not
right to spy on people.

- It's not what she
was talking about.

- We're police
officers Mrs Latimer.

- Fucking 'ell.

- We're looking for your
grandson, an escaped criminal.

Now, I've been honest with you,

what do you have to say to me?

- Fuck off copper.

- I'm on her side.

- Okay,
let's do this the hard way.

Not good enough Mrs Latimer.

We wanna know where he is

and you're gonna tell us
you 'orrible little scumbag!

- Take it easy John.

- No Roy, she's pissing me off!

- [Mrs Latimer] Is
that all you got?

- [John] Don't be
giving it the large!

- Kristof,
you got a name for us?

- [Mrs Latimer] Fuck off!

- [Kristof] You've
gotta help me.

- [Roy] You first, what
have you got for us?

- It goes deep.

- [John] Do the right thing!

- Who's The Juggler?

- [John] Let's have it!

- I need protection.

Look, I'm at Cleasby's
come and get me,

I'll tell you everything I know,
quickly!

- Yeah wait there,
we're on our--

[oxygen tank beeping]

- [Oxygen Tank] Warning,
warning.

[machine blaring]

- What you doing?

- You're right, let's go.
- Warning.

- [Roy] What have you done?

- [John] No,
I never touched her.

- Mrs Latimer,
can you hear me love?

- We knew she was dying, it's--

- Oi!

- [Oxygen Tank]
Assistance needed.

- What are you doing to my Nan?

- You have entered

cardiac arrest.
- Get off her!

- Latimer [screaming].

Gimme your hands,
gimme your hands!

- [Oxygen Tank] I have
fallen and I can't get up.

Assistance needed.

- Hello?

Are you coming?

- Yeah, just give us
another five minutes.

- [Oxygen Tank] Your
heart has stopped.

- I've got him Roy!

[calm music]

- I mean the first thing is
you know you're not going mad.

Often in life we don't
know the best thing to do.

You know for example,
when your husband

comes back from the dead
with an augmented brain,

just as you're becoming
intimate with his partner,

that's a good example
of one of those times.

You need to be kind to
yourself and try to find ways

to release the
immense frustration

and stress that
you're holding in.

[balloon popping]

No, that didn't work.

[dramatic music]

- That turned out
all right in the end.

She was very old.

- Kristof?

[tense music]

Shit, we're too late.

Leave it mate, he's dead.

- So was I remember?

They brought me back, got
my brain working again.

- Yeah, up to a point.

- Who did this to you?

- I think the murder weapon
answers that question.

- You're saying there's
a ten-pin bowler

involved in this now?

- It's a juggling club,
it's The Juggler.

- Yeah, obviously, ten-pin
bowler would use the ball.

- [Ryle] This is interesting.

- This isn't what it looks like.

- Isn't it?

[upbeat music]

I say we take this to Dennett,

walk in there,
lay our balls on the table.

- Can you think of anyone

who may have a grudge
against you ma'am?

- Shit.

She won't be honest with me,
in case it hurts me feelings.

I mean with you, feelings
aren't a problem.

- Fucking 'ell.

- I assumed it was
because you were sleeping

with Major's wife.

- Aye?

- Get down!

[Helen screaming]

- I'm just doing my job.

- What are you talking
into your sleeve for?

- I don't know.

- Stop it!
