Original subtitles

it's too late for you I mean

and at my office this is Griffith's office

it was but Griffith retired

you're not a good fit here

how many customs do people have here

it's an interesting history

and one we like to lean into for the tourists

a child has gone missing asking about Kai pre door

she's pissing people off Griffith

believe

Kai just jumped on the last ferry to the mainland

I don't think that's where he is

I love you

I love you

we come into contact with people with complex

mental health issues all the time

out there at work

you think the chaos will be different

so it blindsided me

well

work was a very toxic environment

they at that time wasn't a safe space for you

no no absolutely

I was only in the room where Matt killed himself

because Fredericks and Cooper just turned up

yes but the reason you were hiding

is because you'd reported them

I wouldn't say I was hiding that complaint you made

how do you feel about that now

the same so that had to happen

he didn't say a shame

your colleagues took a predator off the streets

made the world well safer

and what do you do you report them and you had no shame

I find that pretty disgusting

wait a minute you can't say that

I'm off duty

this session finished 2 minutes ago

um hi

Grace and Ryan we spoke on the phone you look shot love

yeah bit of a long night

I found the body

secured scene and then called you guys

it's Kai Predo 13 years old missing exactly a year

I'd actually just reopen the case

I got stuck in their way so it's great you're here

first thing I need from you is

somewhere to set up shop uh yes police station

so you go down actually I'll show you

some of the streets don't have names here

and the ones that do it mostly consonants

Grace was it take a breath love you goblin

the next thing I need is hotels and B

and B's is eight of us yeah

and last off we don't know this is Caprido

because unless I'm very much mistaken

the body hasn't been identified yet

yeah no uh I know I just mean it it's probably him

oh right well

if it's probably him

I'll just tell the pathologist to sit this one out

shall I

well I'm not a bloody sniffer dog

I need you to take me to the body donor

okay

so the way I say it equips inside door shuts behind him

he gets trapped

that's what happened to Grace last night

she had to call me to let her out

tell her Grace when miles from a household road

so no one would hear him poor lad dies of hypothermia

yes why is he gonna close on

it's actually really common with hypothermia

the victim becomes disorientated and gets undressed

okay so my question is if it is this Kylad

why wasn't he found a year ago

uh yeah

that's on me

me and Griffith split the island and but I

I searched this side from Finite Bay to the church but

should be told like okay

I did I didn't really search this area

it was cooled off and dangerous

it just

it didn't occur to me to look in you

so how many days after we went missing was the search

had to wait for the weather so five maybe six

you don't think you're still alive do you

no you wouldn't have survived the first night

where was clothes

they're not in the shelter

so where did he get undressed

he had a backpack too where's that

probably started to freeze in the woods

got undressed there

dumped his backpack and stuck in his way here

what do I know wouldn't be doing this 25 years

oh my God

Owen go and get some Kip

then come back here and help me coordinate Grace

find out who wants that stretch of land

then put out an appeal

for anyone that's been to the shelter

in the last 12 months

I know it seems pretty inaccessible

but you never know

some kid might have been there with a spliff

found a body but didn't want to come forward

so just say it's all in confidence blah blah blah okay

I thought I'd be more useful if I'm

how you getting on with those hotels

am I doing that oh Jesus H yes

if it's not too much trouble

it's our office

well

I'm the senior officer here

not Owen Owen knows the island you don't

but it's a question of optics

I'm still trying to get established here

once this is over you go back to the mainland

I don't what the islanders will have seen is me

just shoved to the periphery of the investigation

long term

this will affect my ability to police and protect them

optics haven't exactly done you any harm so far Grace

we make the best of what we've got

not all of us have your charm Ann

listen we'll have to get the body to the mainland

and identified

get the 50 action started nor before this Owen

what you call that weather thing again

the winter's whale yeah yeah

it hits the island every year

cuts us off from the mainland for a bit um

phone lines internet a lot

it's on our world's freakiest weather on YouTube

thanks love now piss off and get some sleep

listen

I am not gonna stay here a moment longer than I have to

so sorry not sorry

that there's no time to worry about your feelings

fine go back through the statements

re interview the witnesses integral enough for you

there's something else you should consider the true way

what's that oh

what the shit is this it's a pagan faith

someone tried to introduce her 100 years ago

and the word is it never took root

but what if it did what if it's still active

but what's that got to do with the dead lad

well the island has held a parade

around the time Chi disappeared

and none of them are interviewed what

oh God

is it Kai you found you found a body

is it Kai we're going to issue a statement in G course

what are you talking about

you found a body haven't you

what the hell are they all doing here

I'm sorry but

we cannot discuss the details of active investigations

no don't do this Grace

please don't do this he must be Kai's dad

I'm on I'm leaving the major instant team

you're right

we're here because Grace has found a body and yeah

there is a chance it could be Kai

but we can't be certain

because it hasn't been identified yet

and that is not me bullshitting you

we genuinely don't know but here's what's gonna happen

as soon as I know something

I'm gonna call you we've got your number right

if you don't hear anything from me

it's cause I don't know anything

is there anyone you can be with today

no I'm worried about that

I'm fine okay

look I'm so sorry and whatever the outcome

I know this year must have been awful for you

but like I said as soon as I hear anything

I will call you

Jesus Christ

it's his son

we drop the protocol and throw the guy a freaking bone

will you

just just get some sleep

cause you are not used to me like this

don't forget the widow's whale

don't forget the widow's whale

expect it to arrive any day now

wait

wait wait

hey

hey

hang on

who's Matt in the pub actually

give me a sec oh

that hell we hang

all right

she's taking a walk or do you work around here

we're gonna farm today off my loli

we're taking a walk now yeah

I was just there following the route

the liberation parade looks like it got pretty wild

did you see it

it's hard to work

do you have to be in the true way or can anyone join

haha the true way has to focus

focus for the tourists right

right

I've got to ask why did you take off like that

can't be chatting that I'm working for

he's a beast

totally understand no further questions

my love instead

let's do this properly in the next day or so

we've reopened the Kai Predo case

you'd be amazed how many crimes get solved

because someone saw something

while they're out walking

so I'll be in touch cheers

in a bluntin

part of a munwest

really long go

Griffith yeah

and I'm leaving the MIT to fancy quick power

yeah

ah haha

don't be too hard on Owen

you know he's a good lad

I was thinking

was that kids go to the mainland all the time

sit down

Owen must have looked at that shelter and thought well

you know Kai's not that daft ah

we all make mistakes

said the Dalek climbing off the dustbin

oh this is my wife Min

alright love hey

you'll have to speak up she's from Vietnam

do you like it here do you

it's not like the picture

we met online

and my profile picture was me on holiday in Crete yeah

we've been through this

I never said it was here hmm

you never said it was you 20 years ago either

so I am I just wanted to pick your brains really

I mean Owens a sweetheart

but I said to myself

and if you want to know the wise and the Ware force

you got to speak to the gaffer

so here I am I don't know about that

hang on a minute Mister

what's that all about for you to handles back

oh what can I say

bit of a memento

well it's the least you deserve

so what you thinking about

Kai then locked himself in the shelter

dies a hypothermia nothing flashy

met my replacement then I have indeed okay

it's nothing to do with her being Indian

I mean how good it be if seen the wife now

it's her attitude she's ambitious

nothing wrong with that but um

you know someone like her

she wouldn't choose to come somewhere like this

you should have to be sent

it's a punishment post thing I knew it

as she said she'd that dog shit through its box

what did she do

how can we get satellite pictures of the area

around the shelter

on the nights after Kai went missing

know what sort of satellite pictures

I don't know this is what I'm asking

could you check with air support on the mainland

see if they have the helicopter up

between September 1st and 3rd last year

I need Annes to sign up for that

you're absolutely right

we have to be mindful of hierarchies

hold on I'm a senior officer

so we don't have to ask her for you

well done for checking though

Grace

did you really just say

I'm really sorry about the surge

feel awful but I honestly

I do forget it

you were just following orders

that sounds wrong lack of orders

I'm not making any sense it's fine

listen did Kai ever get in trouble with the police

not like other kids

there was a time someone called us out

because they thought someone was in their garden

it was Kai but it was just a misunderstanding

Griffith other word

and that was it oh

you made the call

Lucy Popkin I know that name

she was Kai's babysitter issues

interviewed after Kai went missing

did Kai say why was in the garden

like I said it was Griffith

other word not me

do you fancy a brew then hmm

I have no idea

the Chi disappeared

around the time of last year's Liberation parade

so I followed the route they take up that hill

and there's a massive hole there

yeah that area is usually cooled off

I think they tried to build a mine in the olden days

but there's Sodle down there and it never got filled in

if there was a big festival

around the time someone went missing

you would check for a link

you would take statements from the people there right

not you one 1

would us us would should

when was the last time you slept

um

34 hours ago oh

bloody hell Chris go home

did you say something

let me give a try

did he

ever thank you

that rapist to civil liberties

got you so hot and bothered

he must have sent a note

or a book token perhaps I mean

it's it's just manners

he didn't know the last I heard

they were still feeding him through a tube

oh dear

how sad never mind

what about the girl though

must be such a comfort for her

knowing her attacker had you looking out for him

girls plural

there were two that we know of

the first one never went to trial

I think you're a bit tapped love

I think you've got a screw loose

there's not a copper in here

who wouldn't do the same as those boys

then I'd report you too

that's how principals work

not gonna say hello dad rude

that's better

how's it going still

winning over hearts and minds or playing the long game

apparently

sit down take the weight off

you found Kai then

yeah yeah we think so

tell me about the treeway

are they still a thing not a clue

I thought you're plugged into the island

I'm the island the island is me

you said yeah

the island not the people

the people are predominantly twats

what goes on at the Liberation parade

oh God don't go near that

why does no one talk about it

okay fine

basically once a year old moms and dads get dressed up

put masks on

climb to the top of the hill and have a massive shag

what uh

did you go

you think I'm letting some 50 year old dad bod

gets pulls on this real estate

I did ask him why we didn't police it

he said it'd be awkward yeah

seeing your mate from the pub

hanging out the back of your auntie is shit

you can't unsee what about that

that big hole in the ground

is that part of it fuck knows

I reckon the men dance around it waving their willies

same as a book club on the mainland in it

uh no

I get it though

everyone's been on their best behaviour for the tourist

so let him get on with it

I see doesn't bother the rest of us

word of advice get better at hiding your distaste

it's just what happens yeah alright

it's not like anyone asked you to join in

I know you didn't choose to come here

but we didn't choose you either

it's too late

do you want me

oh I Grace

I wanted to apologize again

I mean how did someone get a dead chicken up there

without anyone noticing

and then winter to laugh like that

what must you think of us

I made this just for you

it's a traditional Welsh breakfast

so you got lava bread and breakfast cakes

lava bread is that a jam

no seaweed

cause it is uh thank you Lori

as I said I don't actually eat breakfast

oh God I forgot

it's fine I'll have it for my lunch

well I am gonna clean that room myself

every inch I'm gonna scrub it

so it's ready for you whenever you wanna come back

we'll see

how did you get on with the satellite pictures

no turns out the force helicopter wasn't up

cause of that mad weather thing

listen

last night whoever did that was bang out of order

has it ever happened before what

no of course not yeah

we guess

that was the first time there was a cock in your bed

okay well

check with the Coast Guard if conditions were bad

perhaps they had planes

or drones up looking for ships answering distress calls

today's a bit full on as it goes

I won't keep you then

is that coffee bring us one in will you Grace love

positive ID on the body

Kai pre door the cold first thing

I'm gonna head over to his dad's now

I'll go I should go fine

just don't be a twat about it

deliver news that is before well

I'd never guessed from yesterday

Owens a town meeting tonight

so I want you to do that

appeal about getting more information

what about the chicken in my bed

what about it I'm here for Kai

aren't you supposed to be getting me some coffee

what if it's connected to Kai

oh well you're uh

what is it true believers or whatever they're called

I've been asking around

and I think I'm getting close to something

and I think this was a warning Grace

I hate to break it to you

but if it's people you've pissed off

the list of suspects is gonna be longer than

Mr Tickles are yeah

and half it will be your team why did you tell them

just think people should know who they're working with

well I certainly do

sky that got me started babysitting

he was 8 it was just for pocket money back then

I got my regulars now and I run a little parents

a toddlers group of the village hall

oh cause of Kai

when did you stop babysitting Kai when he was 11

I bet you stayed friends with him

with his dad well yeah

small island got to stay pals with everyone

and when you went missing

we were frantic we all helped with the search

I get a sense the search was a bit half hearted

no Owen was great

went from door to door getting us all out

tell me about when you found Kai in your garden

that was nothing but you went to the police

cause I didn't know it was Kai

and when they came and I saw who it was

and Griffith had a word of him

and then it was all settled

did you ever find out what Kai was doing

no obviously why

obviously

because the next day he disappeared

why is none of this in your statement

Kai had a bit of a crush on me

and didn't want to make a big thing about it

because then it becomes you know

it's how people will remember him

but Griffith took your statement

and he doesn't mention it either

okay well

thanks for your time

I'll be in touch if I need anything else

and listen it's happened again

someone in the garden at night

this time about a month ago can you show me where

see that gate at the back

I was stood here I looked out and the gate was open

and I could see the shape of someone sort of crouched

by the shed who's that

Silas my boyfriend

ignore him it could have been him

he was on the sofa watching taskmaster

I called him and we ran out

but whoever it was had gone

what's he doing he wants to build a bomb shelter

I wish

that was the weirdest thing anyone had said to me today

did you report it please

I will now though if it happens again now you're here

oh random question

you didn't go on the liberation parade

did you you know what goes on up there

EWW so you don't remember the true way

that's just a tourist thing

the greatest trick the devil ever pulled

was convincing the world he was just a tourist thing

it really is a massive package

so congratulations now

we're hoping that the Widows

Whale won't be too ferocious this year

but as ever will be here in the hall

and we'll have hot meals and blankets and a crash

and of course we'll have a lorries as I like to call it

a pop up pub

so if you need us and it's safe to do so

or if you just want some company then we'd love to see

right now

I'm going to hand over to sergeant Grace and Ryan

hi I haven't been here very long

and this is obviously not the way

I would have like to introduce myself to you all

as many of you will know a body was found in

the old lookout shelter on the cliff path

that body has now been confirmed as Kai Predo

I'm sure you'll all join me

in extending our deepest sympathies to his father Ian

the exact cause of death hasn't been determined yet

so we would ask anyone with any information

to please speak to us

everything will be treated in the strictest confidence

of course

thank you

uh uh thank you sergeant

now we normally end with any other business

but I don't think we have time for that today so

I got a question for Lady Nancardo

reckon you got a pretty good idea what it's about

it's always nice to hear from you Delan

please go ahead

a lot of us are on the bones of our asses now and

and 5 months income a year is not enough

we should be allowed to have tourists here all the time

your grandfather had it all sewn up come

out this way

haven't seen him by the way

no joy with the Coast Guard

so try the Met Office the Met Office

this is getting daft now

what's daft is we keep having this conversation

obtaining an aerial view of the scene

is one of the 50 actions of a major incident

it shouldn't be like asking you for a fucking kidney

the both of us should just give up

I was talking to Lucy Popkin

she was telling me about the search for Kai last year

she said Owen was great

got everyone organized but I'm confused

because Owen said he searched the side of the island

where the shelter is but I looked on a map

and that's the opposite side to where Lucy lives

which makes me think you searched that side

or didn't search it and if that's the case

you're either lazy to the point of incompetence

or you mismanaged the search for Kai deliberately

there's something very um

temporary about you my love

you're the tourist

I don't just mean on the island I mean in this job

you're in a man's world and gets it

we'll have you for our tea

all right

but before you do answer me this

what does Owen know because right now

it looks like

you colluded to undermine the investigation together

is that it or is he just protecting you

you leave Owen out of this

oh I wanna leave Owen out of this

but first I need to know if you did

Owen does as he's told

that's all my decisions were mine

say jury police station Owen speaking

and is the pathologist

yeah

those satellite pictures

just arrived from the metal office

I've forwarded them to you right

thank you um

did you have a chance to look at them

cause you don't want them no

no that's right

I had to go on the handle myself at all

you know to me outside

absolutely it was a bomb waiting to happen

uh huh

right

okay

sorry sorry

say that again

is this stupid fool

alright

yeah understand

alright thanks Andy

yeah I will do you too bye

what they tell you

if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck

chances are it's a bastard duck

what did he say hypothermia

Chi must have got lost in the woods

started to get cold disorientated

got himself undressed and then crawled into the shelter

and that was that poor lad

good your face

you really thought something fishy was going on

didn't you oh

we still don't know who put that chicken in my bed yeah

and when you find out you'll be massively disappointed

trust me nine times out of 10

death is mundane and crime is really banal seriously

they should have that in Latin under insignia

anyway I thought you'd be glad to see the back of us

oh shit that reminds me Owen

would you shut the weather report for us

when does your mad storm land

can I read the apologist report

what in case he's missed something

I just like to read it fill your boots

it says this afternoon Christ

do you hear that everyone

chop chop

it says it

with traces of rowanberry seeds in Kai's teeth yeah

probably grown in the woods somewhere

people eat all salts in that state stones

leaves G mind if I you've been CC

I should tell Ian good idea

let's go there now you know it was Griffith

you screwed up the search of the shelter and not Owen

what was it silly old sod

I should have his pension for that right

okay

last piece of advice before I go

your obsession with the letter of the law

is all good and well but upholding the law

and protecting people are not always the same

you know what I'm talking about

you're wrong

I'm trying to get two corrupt offices off the street

was protecting people there has to be a line in the sun

otherwise it is just chaos

Jesus Christ

your last boss must have been permanently knackered

I've only been with you for two days

and I feel like I need a bloody spa break

what's that it's my number

I might come in useful one day

someone who's been there done that and

and I mean this

I think there's a great cop in there somewhere

thanks

and listen I think that about you too I really do

how is he he not great

doesn't have any family here

does he that's one of us pop by once a week

have a cup of tea Jackie's okay

you uh speak to Griffith then

you're a good friend to him Owen

better than he deserves hmm

I do the same for you

uh

thank you

right you were saying well

I'd just arrived

and I asked you what crime was like here

that I met Ian

you told me about Kai and it all kicked off

so you were saying oh right yeah

well sometimes

a pig or a cow might go missing from one of the farms

and I was there

why what

no reason I'm just gonna stop you

right who's gonna tell her

fine I'll choose

which one are you Arlin

we discussed this what's your name today

twat No. 1

which makes you twat No. 2

that's better

twat No. 1 get off the floor

it was us to put a chicken in your bed

why was that twat No. 2

because you ruined our party

because we're pathetic little man babies

what you wanna do with them

I'm sure Lody could do some help

cleaning the pub for a week each

she's right boys

those toilets where angels fear to tread

perhaps so you'd like to escort the marrow in

but hate for them to get lost along the way lads

she hit me

she can't do that well did she must have missed that

how did you know the island told me not truly

so we made sense

I can have my office back

weird days carried an accident yeah

nothing to do with the true weight

turns out that's just a tourist thing

wish someone had told me

be honest what were you imagining

weed arrested a suspected rapist

this is back on the mainland

he went to trial but he was acquitted on a technicality

and that night two of my colleagues attacked him

put me in a coma so I reported them

when someone does that

the police closed ranks

I was ostracized I lost everything

and on the last day

literally the day I emptied out my locker

another cop killed himself in front of me

Jesus

just before he did he talked about a plan

he said someone had threatened his family

and the last thing he said was

it's too late for you I mean

I was cleared of any wrongdoing

but I still have to be punished

for making a complaint against my colleagues

ah welcome to ST

jury

anyway I was convinced that this cop's death

was connected to what had just happened

to me why else would he say that

the thing about conspiracy theories is

yeah they're comforting

they imply structure

a plan that someone's in control is chaos

that's all

someone tries to install a new secretive religion here

100 years later a young boy disappears

on the night of one of their festivals

my career implodes someone kills himself

there is no connection like

this is what Ann was telling me

it's mundane it's just human

they ever find out why the cop killed himself

he had bipolar disorder it got missed somehow

wouldn't find out till afterwards

everyone hates me don't they

ah they'll come around

you meant to say no they don't

what's that

I asked someone from the MIT

to get me an aerial shot of the shelter

during last year's widow's whale

when Kai was trapped in there

a symbol of the true way

wait what's wrong

I think that's a car

look how close it is to the shelter

even during the storm even in the car

they'd have known Kai was in there

they were listening to him die

hi Grace

you have to come back I found something

you're gonna have to speak up

I can't hear you

I've just seen a satellite picture of the shelter

on a night Kai died

and there's a massive true way symbol

someone drew it on the top of the cliff

another and a car

a fucking car someone was there listening to him die

it's the true way I knew it

I knew they're involved

and did did you hear me

uh sorry

I I didn't get any of that

was that Grace yeah

just wanted to say goodbye bless her
