May I speak to Naomi?

Naomi Mwanajuma Angaza.

Tsegga?

Tsegga, is that you?

Naomi!

Where are you?

Amsterdam.

I will be with you tomorrow.

I've been counting the days.

Tsegga?

Tsegga?

Naomi.

Oh, I'm sorry sir.

I did not know there was anyone still here.

It's all right.

I'm just picking up a few things.

Dad, you're going to be late again.

I know.

Well, what do you think?

I think we need to take you shopping.

Right, thanks.

Anyway, I thought you said nobody ever notices.

They don't But you want your dad looking his best, right?

Uh, get your own!

Can't, running late.

Oh!

Love you.

Don't forget!

Don't be too late tonight.

I won't!

I'm doing dinner.

OK.

There's something I need to talk to you about.

Danny, where've you been?

I've been worried sick about you.

Does Sandra know you're here?

Of course not.

She doesn't know any of it, and I don't want to.

Get the police around looking for you.

What did you tell him?

I didn't tell them anything.

I knew I could rely on you You've always stood by my,

haven't you?

You shouldn't have run.

You don't know what it was like I've

got to get out of country.

I've got no choice. What will I do?

Sit around waiting to be caught?

Maybe we should go the to the police?

We can't do that.

Think about Sandra.

Think about your kid.

What Do you want him to see you go to jail?

Me?

We're in this together.

You got the money?

500 is all I have.

It's the money Sandra's has been saving

up for the holiday in Florida.

She's going to kill me.

It's not enough.

I'm going to need more.

OK.

Give me time, and don't call me.

I'll call you.

The nurse said Karen Donnelly

had two lots of visitors.

Did they not say who they were?

She said they were friends.

Do they look like friends to you?

See how they always keep their hands down?

They say she discharged herself.

Well, maybe she did, and maybe they are friends.

Why are you so interested in her?

- Here he is. - Who?

Her brother.

Now, that all seems harmless enough.

That's what he said.

He looks up in a minute.

There.

Karen Donnelly doesn't have a brother.

I checked.

The who is he?

That's what I want to find out.

You OK?

Can I get you a cup of tea or something to eat?

You've got to eat, love.

You're no good to anyone if you make yourself ill.

I can't.

I feel-- feel sick.

I just can't believe this is happening.

I shouldn't have let you take her for a drive.

She didn't want to go.

I only let you take her out because--

What?

Because I was so tired.

I just needed a break.

Don't.

Don't do this.

Don't blame yourself.

Nobody's fault, least of all yours.

If only you hadn't taken the A12.

If only you hadn't gone there.

Why were you there?

What do you mean?

Why are you on the A12?

You said you were taking her to Sandhills.

That's nowhere near.

Stop it.

Stop doing this.

It was an accident.

It just happened.

Where are you going?

This isn't the way to Sandhills.

No, I thought we'd go somewhere

different for a change.

I don't want to go somewhere different.

Where are you taking me?

There's something I want to show you.

Brian, what's happening?

Get the crash cart.

Give a mil.

1 in 1,000 of adrenaline.

C'mon, let's get to it.

Karen Donnelly was in no fit state to leave a hospital.

Well, have you tried ringing her home?

Yeah, there's nobody there.

Well, maybe she'll staying with friends, the ones

she left with.

They didn't look like friends.

What are you trying to say?

That she was kidnapped?

That is what you're saying. Why?

Why-- why would anyone--

Look, hang on.

We-- we pick up that envelope from her and it gets

nicked out of the back of my car.

And then she gets visited in the hospital by her brother,

except she doesn't have a brother.

And then two mysterious friends show up and just take it away,

and you don't think that's suspicious?

Well maybe, but that's not my job.

Oh, come on!

What is your job?

A car accident!

I'm trying to find out why two people died and a lot more were

injured, yes.

That's what I do.

Fine.

I'm going to go find her.

Don't walk away from me.

Don't walk away.

This is just like you, isn't it?

You just go off regardless of anybody else.

All that matters is you.

What do you want from me, Ann?

You can't do everything on your own.

I'm so, so sorry.

I don't understand.

I just don't understand.

How can she be dead?

You walked away without even a scratch.

Oh, Brian.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean that.

The Lord is my shepard.

I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures.

He leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul.

Essex FM--

With AJ.

This is AJ.

Lots of good music lined up for you--

All right, I'm off.

I'll catch you later.

See you later.

Dave?

I might be back a bit late tonight.

Why, where are you going?

I said I'd meet Cindy for a drink after work.

What's the occasion?

Birthday.

Free babysitter and the night off.

Sounds good.

Tell me where you're going and I'll join you.

Ah, you wouldn't be interested.

It's just going to be us two, just

talking about girls' stuff.

That's not much of a birthday, is it?

Mhm.

I'll leave you some tea in the fridge?

Yeah, all right.

Look, I was thinking I might invite Rob and Cheryl around

on the weekend. Oh, yeah.

Cool.

You know she's pregnant?

You're joking.

She's only just got married.

It's four months down the line.

Down the line?

What sort of a line is that, the production line?

She seems really happy about it.

Anyway, I'll see you later.

Yeah, see you.

Excuse me.

You have three messages.

Message one.

Hello, dear.

I just wanted to remind you we're off tomorrow,

and Dad's lost the passports as usual.

We'll get there in the end.

Uh, back in a week.

I'll see you then!

Bye.

Karen, this is James.

I'm at the Betsey Trotwood.

Where are you?

You've got my mobile.

Please give me a call.

Message three.

Karen, it's me again.

Look, it's eight o'clock.

I'm assuming you're not going to show up.

Well, call me.

End of all messages.

A road accident?

Well, it makes sense.

We were all worried sick about her.

Have you tried to contact her?

Yes, of course.

We rang her home and her mobile, but there was no answer.

Did you leave messages?

Yes I believe so.

Well, that's strange because I played

her answering machine earlier this morning

and there was nothing on it.

Well, I don't understand that.

And frankly, I don't know what you're suggesting.

I'm actually terribly sorry, um--

what are you doing here?

Karen Donnelly left hospital with two men.

Since then, there's been no sign of her.

Were they family?

I was hoping you could tell me.

I'm afraid I didn't know much about Karen Donnelly

outside office hours.

We didn't mix socially.

And how long she worked here?

Four years.

I knew something was up when she didn't turn up for work,

not without ringing in first.

HDC.

So what is it you do here?

The bulk of our business is in agrochemicals.

Fertilizers, pesticides.

We export all over the world.

Europe, Asia.

Africa?

Yes.

Yes, and Africa.

Have you ever seen this man?

Where'd you get this?

It was taken from the CCTV camera

at the hospital where Miss Donnelly was being treated.

I wondered if he might be a work colleague.

Well, it's actually a terribly large company.

You can't expect to know every employee.

Would you mind if I hung onto this?

I could maybe pass it on to the HR people.

They could run it through the records.

Yeah, you can keep that one.

I've got copies.

If she does get in touch, I'd be grateful if you'd let me know.

Yes, of course.

All right, let's get it all out.

I want an inventory list.

I told you, I don't know where he is.

You haven't spoken to him?

No.

And you have no idea as to why he

might've abandoned his vehicle?

He was bringing in furniture from Holland.

It's a trip he's done plenty of times before.

Mrs. Rampton?

I've got nothing to add to what my husband just told you.

And how long has your brother-in-law

been working for you?

Not long.

We gave him a job when he came out of the Army.

We did it quite reluctantly, really.

We were just trying to help him.

Sandra.

This is certainly something I never expected,

to have the police in my home.

Do you have any idea how embarrassing this is?

I've got an eight-year-old son.

He'll be home in a minute.

How do you think he's going to feel seeing his parents being

interviewed by the police?

I need to know if he contacts you.

If Jeffrey's brother contacts us, Ms. Stallwood,

you would be the first to know.

Why do they keep coming here?

Why won't they leave us alone?

You know, it's routine.

No, it's not routine.

We've never had the police here before,

not until you got involved with your brother.

The worst thing is you don't see that he's got you wrapped

around his little finger.

My credit card got rejected this morning at the supermarket.

You have no idea what it was like.

I had the till girl staring at me.

They made me take things out my basket and put them back.

What's happening, Jeffrey?

What have you two been up to?

I need to know.

It's not a very good picture but, yeah

I've seen quite a few times.

How'd you know he drank here?

No, I just know he was meeting someone at the Betsey Trotwood,

and this is the only pub in the whole country with that name.

Ah, well he lived around here.

Who?

Dickens.

Yeah, I definitely recognize this guy.

Comes in two or three times a week.

Late, usually.

I'd say he was local.

Did he ever come here with this woman?

Ah, she's familiar.

I've definitely seen her.

Did you hear what they were talking about?

No.

What do you say their names where?

Her name is Karen Donnelly.

We only know him as James.

Listen, I'll keep an eye out for him.

I'll let you know if I see him come back.

You leaving, Mr. Taylor?

Yes, just for the weekend.

A story come up.

You owe me five weeks rent.

Yeah, and when I get back, I'll pay it to you, all right?

I haven't got time to talk about this.

No, I can't let you leave until you've paid.

I said back off!

Now get off me!

Shit!

Help me, somebody!

Naomi, you haven't said a word to me all day.

What have I done?

It's not you, Joe.

It's my husband.

Still no word?

He rang me a week ago from Amsterdam.

He said he was coming.

Since then, nothing.

Why was he in Amsterdam?

It was the last stop.

It is a long journey.

He should be here now.

Maybe he's buying you tulips.

Don't worry about him, Naomi.

You spoke to him.

You know he's on the way.

He should be here now.

What's his name?

Tsegga.

Ah, you named your son after him?

Tsegga Angaza.

It'll be a surprise for him.

Naomi.

Sit.

Here you go.

Thank you.

You speak English?

I'm an engineer.

A lot of my business was in English.

How long will I be here for?

You'll be on your way very soon.

Do you have a phone?

I was talking to my wife, but the phone card ran out.

You can talk to her when you see her.

There he is.

What have we got here?

Please, do you know me?

Nah, never seen you before in me life, love.

I came here 8 months ago.

They brought me here.

Nah, nah.

You've mistaken us for someone else.

All we do is fix cars.

Where is my husband?

I don't know what you're talking about.

I don't know who you are, and I don't know who your husband is.

He calls me.

Enough.

Please help me.

He should be here now.

Where is he?

I told you once, I don't know what you're talking about.

Now do yourself a favor, go away please.

They were carrying furniture from Eastern Europe.

There's gotta be more to it than that.

Daniel Rampton's disappeared.

If he was drunk, he'd have turned up by now

with his tail between his legs.

Drugs?

Would explain it.

No, they look too suburban to me.

Mhm.

Mhm.

But we know that Daniel Rampton didn't start the crash.

So?

So, if we do find a couple of kilos of Dutch cannabis,

it's not our business.

Hand it to the drug squad.

We're traffic.

This is a traffic accident.

- Try telling John that. - Why?

What's he doing?

It doesn't matter.

Uh, I'm sorry to land you both on the same case like this.

I mean--

Water under the bridge.

It is.

Well, it pains me to say it, but for a suit,

he seems like a decent enough bloke.

Ah, please.

Well, it's not exactly like you've got them queuing up.

Piss off, Mike.

Since when did you become my counselor?

Jesus, that is the trouble with this place.

If you haven't been unhappily married for 10 years with three

kids and a mortgage, then everyone

looks at you like you're weird.

I've paid off my mortgage.

John?

I've just had word from Fraser.

He wants you off the case.

He what?

Well, don't worry.

He's delighted.

Bill Jackson's withdrawn his suit against the Met.

It's entirely down to you.

Well, yeah, but there's still a few loose ends.

I know, I know.

But soon as we get the EDR data back on the car,

you're reassigned.

It's a good job.

Excuse me, Madam.

Do you have a reservation?

Oh, hi.

You made it.

I didn't think you'd come.

Well, let's get a drink.

No, look.

I'm really sorry, I can't stay.

What's the matter?

Well, I'm in a relationship.

Well there's an opener.

Well, if we're being honest, so am I. I'm married.

You're married?

Well, for now at least.

Oh.

Well, it's only a drink.

They do great cocktails.

Well, anything you want?

A glass of wine?

Yeah, they do wine.

Come.

If you don't like her, then

why are you still together.

If you're engaged to be married,

why are you here?

Because you said it was just a drink.

Does your fiance know you've come?

See, I think you are here for the same reason that I am.

The same reason I went to the service station to see you.

Which was?

Well, if I had to tell you, you wouldn't be here.

Oh, sorry.

Thank you.

So?

It's good.

Delia.

Delia Smith.

It's her recipe.

Is she not the one that cheats?

Yeah.

At least she admits to it.

I need to speak to you.

Don't worry.

It's nothing bad.

It's about Edinburgh.

University?

Uh, I've sent the application.

You never told me.

I told you I was thinking about it.

And have they offered you a place?

No, but they want to see me.

That's great.

Is it?

Yeah, it's great.

What's to tell?

I work in a service station and I'm engaged to be married.

Are you happy with that?

Shouldn't I be?

Well, if it's what you want, you should be.

Oh, I don't know, Richard.

You have all these dreams when you're younger, don't you?

About what you're going to do when you're older and places

you're going to see.

I had dreams of traveling the world.

France, Spain, Italy.

Do you know I've never been out the country.

You're kidding?

Sad, innit?

I mean, I've got my passport and everything.

I got that as soon as I could, but I've never used it.

Big on dreams, small on risk.

I'm not sure we should count going abroad as a risk.

Well, for me it might be.

I think if I left, I'd never come back.

I've got this vision of a villa on the hills in Italy.

Red wine, olive groves, that sort of thing.

You must think I'm mad.

No, no, no, no.

I don't.

Will you come out with me tomorrow?

No.

We agreed a drink, and besides, I'm working.

Well, call in sick.

Seems to be the tactic amongst the people I employ.

Kandinsky, Russian painter, turn of the century,

big passion of mine.

There's an exhibition opening tomorrow, invitation-only.

You've just been invited.

C'mon.

Take the risk.

Edinburgh's a long way away.

I know.

Is that why you chose it?

I chose it because it's a fantastic city

and it does the best course.

I just worry about you, that's all.

I mean, what if something happens?

Nothing will happen.

It was my first choice.

It's where I want to go.

I need my independence, dad.

You're independent now.

You are.

Oh, Jodie.

Uh, what time are you going to be back?

Oh, Jodie, who are you going out with?

I'm your dad.

That's my job.

I know, but it's hard to meet anyone around here.

I just want to go somewhere new, meet people

who didn't know me before.

People who take me for who I am.

I'm just trying to move on.

We both are.

So, who are you seeing?

A tutor and a disability coordinator.

Where are you going to live?

I mean, how are you going to get in and out of campus every day?

And what if you need medical help?

Well, that's what I'm going to ask.

Great. Well, I'm coming with you.

Oh, dad.

You're busy.

Jodie.

It matters to me, dad.

I want to go on my own.

I might not be so busy, anyway.

They want me off the A12.

Why?

Ah, they say I've done everything that needs doing.

And have you?

No.

I've done everything that they wanted.

That's not enough for you, is it?

Sir.

So what's the Met doing out here?

With respect, sir, I could ask you the same thing.

It's not like a superintendent to be at a crime scene.

Karen Donnelly was involved in a road accident a few days ago.

Probably what tipped her over the edge.

Oh, you think it was suicide?

The body was found in the bath, bottle of Co-proxamol

at her side, wrists cut.

What else would it be?

She'd been suffering from depression

for the past two years.

We found Prozac in her cabinet prescribed by her doctors.

What, that one there?

Well, yes.

Where else?

Well, it's just I was here yesterday

and the only thing that I found was an empty bottle

prescribed in 2007.

Well, you obviously didn't look carefully enough.

These were prescribed last month, and still half full.

You find anything else in here?

No.

Right, so nothing nothing's been moved.

Look, I haven't got time for this.

And frankly, I don't know who are you

to come here and question me.

How did she light the candles?

The candles, they've all been lit,

but there's no cigarettes, lighter.

There's no matches.

Co-proxamol has been withdrawn from the market.

How do you suppose she got hold of those?

Yeah, we're looking into that.

Oh, well.

That's great.

You know, I don't like your tone.

I saw her leave hospital with two men,

and since then, she's just vanished into thin air.

She didn't come here.

She didn't go to work.

She didn't call anybody.

And where are these men?

I don't know.

Are you saying they killed her?

No.

Oh, well, perhaps you might want

a bit more solid evidence before you start making accusations.

What have you got for me?

What, with the van?

Yeah.

Nothing.

Got a load of furniture, a few broken mirrors.

I reckon they've got at least 63 years'

bad luck coming their way.

The van wasn't why you rang?

You thought it would be?

Yeah.

I think it's more than just a drunken driver.

Possibly carrying something they shouldn't be.

Drugs, maybe.

Can we make it a priority?

OK, I'll get the boys onto it again.

So why did you call?

Brian Edwards.

Now this one, I do have something on.

I understand that Joyce Thompson died yesterday.

Yes, head injuries.

Fractured skull, but the driver

wasn't hurt, which isn't that unusual, all things considered.

Depends on the point of impact, speed, airbags, et cetera.

But have a look at this.

I've measured up the indentations

and they're not nearly as deep as I'd have expected.

You mean he slowed down before the collision?

Quite considerably, I'd say.

And there's something else, the seatbelt.

She wasn't wearing a seatbelt. I've

got a report from a paramedic.

Then perhaps you should take a closer look.

When a person's thrust forward against the seatbelt

in an accident for that for that split second,

the moment of impact, the friction

generated between the seat belt and the clothes reaches 250--

250 degrees, you told me.

Ah.

Anyway, the webbing of the seatbelt and the clothing

fibers fuse together.

We've matched fibers from her blouse

to those on the seat belt.

Could have happened at a different time?

Well, it's possible, but extremely unlikely.

So she was wearing a seat belt and he

slowed down before the impact--

Then she shouldn't have sustained the head injuries,

exactly.

Why can't they release her body?

In an investigation like this, we can't release--

Investigation?

She died in an accident.

What is there to investigate?

I want to arrange her funeral.

I know.

I'm sorry, I really am.

Oh, this is Inspector Stallwood.

She wants to ask you some questions.

They won't release mum's body.

Why not?

Mr. Edwards, can you remember whether your mother-in-law

was wearing a seatbelt when you were involved in the accident?

No, no.

She wasn't.

Mrs. Edwards?

Oh, well, I was wasn't there.

If that's what my husband says.

Steve.

Yeah?

What do you know about Detective Superintendent

called Anthony Braydon?

Never heard of them.

I just met him at Karen Donolly's house.

He spent three years I SO60.

Diplomatic squad?

Now he's been assigned to a suicide.

Even though it's nowhere near his patch.

I don't think it's a suicide.

This is Karen Donelly?

You still think she's abducted?

Well, I've got something new for you.

Police officer involved in a stabbing.

No mystery, just self-defense.

You dot the Is, cross the Ts.

C'mon, Steve.

You said yourself the black box data hasn't come back yet,

and I'm not officially off this case until it does.

I want another week.

You get three days.

Then EDR or not, you're reassigned.

Come on.

What's your name?

Tsegga.

Do you speak English?

Yes, I find most people have trouble with Swahili.

Where do you come from?

From the coast of East Africa.

It's a long way.

It has been a long journey.

Why England?

Because it is a good place.

Everyone knows that.

There, you treat your visitors with respect.

Land of Hope and Glory?

Is that what you think?

My wife and baby are waiting for me.

This is the first time I see my child.

We will build a new life together.

Have they come in the same way?

There is no other way.

You don't move.

Do you understand that?

You don't make a sound.

I'm putting my whole life on the line for this.

It is my life too.

Help me.

Sir!

I need your help.

They want to move me on.

Off the case?

Reassigned.

Look, I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have been the way I was.

No, you shouldn't.

No, I mean last year.

I shouldn't I treated you the way I did.

Shut you out, I know I did.

I just-- I didn't know what else to do.

I'm sorry.

I was wrong.

Right now, I need your help.

You're reassigned.

Look, three people died in this crash.

Then this morning, we find there's another one.

Some poor bugger comes over here trying to find a better life

and ends up bleeding to death in the bottom of a van.

There's no way I'm going to let him

become just another statistic.

Not any of them.

They'll never be that.

Yeah, they will.

That's what they become in time, but not this time.

I need to find out what happened here,

and I can't do it without you.
