I'm gonna be stuck here
all night, Suze.

I think I've got a lift.

That's me, aged 10,

it was taken by the man
who murdered my mother.

We don't need you coming down
from Dublin

checking up on us
like we can't do our job.

Look, don't judge me
by that lot,

I may actually be
of some use to you.

This poor girl
might still be alive.

So, if there's anything
you're not telling me...

I just got a call from Susan
Reynolds, they've got a suspect.

- So, what do you do, Liam?
- Garda.

- A suspect already?
- It's confidential.

You're all talk,
I bet you're not even a guard.

Mark Bulger.

Can you tell us where you were
last Tuesday night

between the hours
of 10:00 pm and 1:00 am?

It's not me.

The latest turd
to land on me desk,

finding out
which of our filthy officers

has been having it
away with rent boys.

I see you bitch!

I thought
this would be easier,

everything looked
so different at night.

Take your time.

I thought it was this way.

We can take it from here.

No, I'm fine.

Establish a perimeter,
let's get it secure.

Lads.

Jesus, what a stench.

Forensics
are gonna be kept busy.

She was in that corner.

Some poor cow is still married
to this sicko.

He's married?

Apparently.

It beggars belief, doesn't it?

Find Bulger.
Get this place sealed off.

This is a major crime scene.

- Mand?
- I'll be down in a minute, Nan.

I'm just going to get changed.

Sorry, love, what did you say?

I promise we'll keep
this as brief as we can, Teresa

We wanna get you home
as soon as possible.

How did you meet Mark Bulger?

Had you met him
before the attack?

I know you've been
through hell, Teresa

but anything you can tell us...

in order to make an arrest
we need evidence or a statement.

I've a daughter
not much younger than you,

please help me protect
other women like yourself.

He's dangerous
and he'll do it again.

- What did she say?
- Nothing.

Bulger's victims never do,

at least not on record.

Let me speak to her.

The 19 year old was rescued

from a shed in dense woodlands

about 10 miles south
of Castlemoy

by an unidentified woman.

The identity of the kidnapper
is unconfirmed,

- the woman is said to have...
- I'm going to the station.

- Let me get dressed.
- You need to stay by the phone,

I'll come straight back.

But if it was Amy
they would've called.

We can't be sure of anything.

I'm not one of them, Teresa.

Far from it.

Nothing goes further
than these four walls.

Look,

I'm grateful to you...

but I can't tell you more.

I don't know anything.

Can you tell me
what happened last night?

How do you know Mark Bulger?

I don't.

Teresa...

we're trying to find
a missing girl

and we think that Bulger
might've taken her too

so if there's anything that you
could tell us that could help...

Or did you see anything that
might belong to another girl?

Did he say anything
that could've led you to believe

that there could've been
another girl anywhere--

I can't do this.

I'm sorry
but I just wanna go home.

- Teresa, please.
- I'm sorry.

Please, Teresa,
I need your help.

I think he might've killed
my mother.

Fifteen years ago, and...

I just,

I can't bear the thought
of him walking free again

after what he did to you.

Um...

was it, was it just you and him?

Did you, did you go
with him willingly?

What do you think?

No.

I was on my way home.

I was nearly there,
just five minutes away.

I knew all about him.

Everybody knows.

He was out of the car so quick.

I tried to run,

to fight...

I thought he was gonna kill me.

If you hadn't come...

Did he...

If we can just get her
to say that on tape...

She won't.

Let's hope we can get enough
to keep him

without her statement.

Where are you off to?

I've got a contact
who might've informed Bulger.

Who's that?

My father.

There's something else.

Yes.

While I was digging I found out

that in 1981 Bulger was arrested
with one Billy Miller,

a gang drug runner,

found traces
of heroin in his car.

Right.

Well, it turns out this Miller
guy was in the gang

that your father
was associated with.

Couldn't find much on him
except for juvenile

but to be honest that just means
he wasn't caught.

He was never questioned

in relation
to your mother's murder,

not once.

He's a recovering
heroin addict now.

Maybe ask your dad about him.

Maybe.

Is she in there?
Have they found her?

Susan, no, I'm sorry.

- It's someone else.
- But this girl's alive,

does that mean...

We can't know that yet.

- I'm sorry.
- Can I speak to her?

No, no they won't allow that,
Susan.

It's been days,
what are they doing?

I know, I'm sorry.

Look...

they're about to interview
the suspect.

The same one who...?

Yeah.

So do they think he took Amy?

I don't know. I'm sorry.
Susan. Susan, please.

They won't tell you anything,
I'm not supposed to have.

Just go home to your mama, OK?

That's the best thing
you can do,

and I'll call over later, OK?
I promise.

Get my own dinner, will I?

Don't be like that, Mand.

I'll make you something.
What do you fancy?

Sorry, love, what did you say?

Nothing, Nan, it's fine.

Come and sit with me.

I thought you were doing
a shop today?

I haven't been feeling well.

Well enough to drink cider.

Oh stop, it's only one or two.

It's alright, Nan.

I'll go get us something.

You are a good girl.

Yeah, well,

I have my moments.

If you've nothing to hide

why'd you make a run
for it last night?

Yous are always trying
to pin things on me.

What's it this time?

- What'm I supposed to have done?
- We're asking the questions.

- Are ya?
- How long have you had the shed?

What shed?

The shed our witness
saw you inside.

- What witness?
- A very credible witness

who's given us
a written statement.

I use it to store me
hunting tools.

- And?
- And preparing me kill.

Is that it?

Am I free to go now?

How long have you known
Teresa Gannon?

Like her, do you?

Met her down at O'Connell's.

Look.

I shouldn't be giving you
her number,

if you want to
you should ask her yourself,

she's pretty easy,
you might get lucky.

How long did you keep her
tied up for?

Can't be sure exactly.

She seemed
to be enjoying it anyway.

Most of the girls do.

Well...

the dirty ones.

From what our witness described,

it's crystal clear you tied her
up against her will.

What's Teresa saying?

- She's saying nothing ain't she?
- Answer the fucking question.

You've got fuck all.

This is a waste of time.

We'll see.

Get me a solicitor,
I'm saying nothing.

This Bulger

sounds like
a right piece of shit,

but he's low level.

The guy that killed your ma,

he was methodical, calculating.

What if that's his cover though,

hiding in plain sight, relying
on no one saying anything?

I'm sorry.

I don't think it's him.

I know it's not
what you wanna hear.

Oh,

I want him to be the one too.

It's all I've ever wanted.

It eats away at me,
every single day,

I want him found,

just as much as you.

I didn't deserve your ma,

but I loved her

and I still do.

Who's Billy Miller?

How do you know him?

Who is he?

He was part of a gang
I worked for.

What did he do?

He's a gangster, Lisa.

The usual things you'd expect.

And you just did
what he told you?

Could he have got Mam killed?

No.

No.

I know they weren't good men,

but they,
they didn't kill women.

- Miss Reynolds, please--
- You've got a suspect

- and you didn't call me?
- We haven't charged him yet

- and we can't--
- What?

He kidnapped that girl.

It's on the news,
for fuck's sake!

- We can't presume--
- Have you got a family?

- Yes.
- We both do, Susan.

You have my word.

As soon as I have anything,

anything, I'll let you know,
I promise.

We wanna get this guy
as bad as you do.

Doesn't seem like it.

I'm better off dealing
with Lisa Wallace,

at least she gives a shit.

I'll see if I can lean
on Wade again.

Get him to budge.

Please.

Siobh*n? Siobh*n Bulger?

I don't use that name no more

and I told you lot
to fuck off already.

I'm not police, I'm just trying

- to find out information on--
- Sorry love, I'm already late.

Did Mark have a history of
violence when you were together?

Are you deaf?

Please, Siobh*n, we're trying
to find a missing woman.

If Mark assaulted women
when you were together

and you know
any of his methods--

Methods?

Have you seen his knuckles?

The man's a fucking ape.

His only methods

were drinking ten pints
every night and passing out.

Were you with him in 1980?

Don't drag me
into his shitty life.

Woman to woman, I'm asking you.

Just leave me alone,

he's not my problem anymore.

Well, well.

The usual?

Get up! Come on.

Fuck off!

- It's not Bulger.
- Hold on.

It doesn't match his profile,
come on you spoke to him.

The man's a thug,
a stupid violent thug,

think how easy
it was to catch him.

We don't know
your mother's killer

was a criminal mastermind.

We know he was meticulous
and careful,

- two things Bulger isn't.
- Maybe got sloppy.

Maybe he wanted to be caught.

For what it's worth,
I agree with you.

It's gonna be hard
to convince this lot

and until then,
until we know more,

let's not share so much
information with Amy's family.

I got an earful off the sister
earlier I could've done without.

Lisa,

I'm glad you're back
in contact with your father,

but be careful.

He might be
just feeding you stuff

as a way to get close
to you again.

- Think I'm not aware of that?
- No, it's just...

Men like him, their brains
are wired differently.

Sometimes it can be hard
to stay ahead.

No, he's just weak
and got in too deep,

the Miller thing's a dead end.

I dunno.

There's something
you should know.

The man your father killed

was shot from 100 yards away
with a semi-automatic rifle.

That's serious marksman stuff.

Possibly former provo.

So just be careful, OK?

Yeah?

The writing samples,
they don't match.

Told you.

Bulger can barely
write his own name.

One bit of good news though?

What?

I spoke to the barman
at The Golden Hope.

Not only did Wade
put away five pints,

he was trying to shift
stolen video players.

I paid him a visit, found a few
in the back of his car.

Said I might turn a blind eye

if he gave us
a witness statement

and bingo.

Nice work.

So, you can charge Bulger
for Teresa's abduction?

- We sure can.
- But,

the man who's got Amy
is still out there.

So, we keep on the search,

but we've got another violent
arsehole off the streets.

That doesn't sound
like keeping up the search.

Do you mind if I head off?

The missus has bridge.

Sure.

And well done again today.

Mandy!

Nice jacket.

You know Katherine's
having a party Saturday?

Yeah, I've got plans.

That's a shame,
she'd love to see you and all.

- You OK?
- Yeah.

Fine.

You know, busy.

Are you still seeing
that fellow?

Why?

There'll be some nice lads
there tonight.

Ryan was asking after you.

I like an older man.

Really?

He's old enough
to be your dad, though.

Isn't that a bit pervy?

Why do you suddenly care?

I've always cared, Mand.

You're my best friend.

- I'm here for you anyway--
- Jesus, what is wrong with you?

I'm just looking out for you.

Thanks.

But I'm fine.

I have the story ready to go.

Are you absolutely certain
about this?

100% sure.

Bulger's not
the man we're after.

Shit.

Right, we have to warn

the public he's still out there

But then we risk provoking him.

What choice do we have?

I don't know.

Look, our line has to be to tell
women till this fucker's caught,

until we know for sure

they have to stay
on their guard.

You're right.

You're right.
We've got to keep running this.

And get some rest, Lisa.

- I can't.
- That's an order.

From your boss.

Have a few drinks,
it'll knock you out,

you'll be no good to anyone,
least of all yourself.

Right.

I am going to get started
on this, I'll talk to you later.

Yeah.

What?

You can't be here.

I just really need
to talk to you.

Tommy, you can't be here.

Why'd you come here?

Joe got grabbed by the Guards,

they smashed
the shit out of him.

And then two more today.

All wanting to know
the same thing,

who's sleeping with a copper.

- Oh my God.
- I can't go back to the park.

Yeah, well,
you can't stay here either.

I don't want money.

I need to be
somewhere safe.

Let me give you
something to go somewhere.

Not enough.

- It's not safe for me to work?
- What do you expect me to do?

- I don't fucking know.
- This is my life, Tommy!

Fuck off.

Sorry.

I'm sorry.

Hey! I am smoking that!

You're gonna burn the house down
one of these days, Nan.

Oh, don't be such a drama queen.

What if I hadn't come back in?

What did you get for dinner?

Lasagna.

Lovely.

I'll do us a roast tomorrow.

Well,

we'll see how you feel.

It's just--
I've not been too well.

I know, Nan.

I'll just whack the oven on.

I'm sorry, Tommy.

I need to call home.

Thanks.

Hi, love, I was waiting
for you to call,

- Rachel's playing up again.
- Put her on.

She's gone out.

With who?

Your guess is as good as mine.

I told you it's not safe.

I know that.

What do you think
I've been saying?

Sorry.
I know, it's not your fault.

Too bloody right it's not.

I'm here doing my best
and you're off on a jolly.

A jolly?

There we go then.

It's nobody's fault.

I've got to go.

- I'll call you tomorrow, OK?
- Yeah.

I love you.

I love you too.

Nan?

You OK?

Nan?

Jesus. Nan!

Hello, Mandy.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Interesting choice of decor.

I think they like flowers?

If hell was in florals...

Is it hell?

I guess so.

Come here.

...though we've legalised
homosexuality recently,

why is there still
so much resistance to it?

Hello?

- Is this Susan Reynolds?
- Sorry, who is it?

I have some information
about your sister, Amy.

How do I know
you're telling the truth?

She has a star tattoo, right?

I can tell you where she is,
but you have to meet me now.

Sure, where?

The big car park
behind the bowling alley.

Yeah, I'll leave now.

- Who was it?
- I don't know.

A girl, she sounded young,

she knows about
Amy's star tattoo,

she says she's got information
about where she is.

- I'm gonna go meet her now.
- Where?

The big car park,
off St. Martin's.

- I'm coming with you.
- No, mum! I need to be quick,

I don't want to miss her,
I'll come straight back, OK?

Don't be long.

Do you ever imagine what it'd be
like for us in another life?

Of course I do.

We could just live,

like this.

Better than this I'd hope.

You know what I mean.

If it wasn't for Rachel...

Just Rachel?

What about Mary?

She doesn't deserve this.

None of us do.

You don't either.

It's not your fault.
It's just...

what it is.

You're not a bad person, David.

What?

This room.

Hello?

Is she OK?

Is she alive?

Help!

Did you forget something?

- Lisa.
- I said to Susan I'd pop by.

She's gone to meet some girl

who said she had information
about Amy.

Got a call out of nowhere
and told her to meet her.

Oh right. Did you get a name?

I told her not to go.

She'll be fine,
it could be helpful.

Where was she meeting her?

The Dublin Evening Mail
warned women to stay vigilant,

as the man responsible

for the abduction
of Amy Reynolds

and the murder
of Janice Wallace in 1980

was still at large.

A Garda spokesman confirmed
a Mark Bulger of Castlemoy

had been charged

with the abduction and assault
of a local woman

but was not a suspect

in the Amy Reynolds
or Janice Wallace cases.

They assured
women around the country

there was no need
for undue concern or distress.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello? Who's there?

Amy?

Amy, are you there?

I'm not Amy.

You...

- You did this.
- It wasn't my fault.

You... You called me.

- You lured me into that place.
- He said he would kill my Nan,

what was I supposed to do?

You should've warned me.

I couldn't.

He had her tied up at home,
he would've killed her.

I'm sorry.

He's gonna kill us both.

He's fuckin' not.

What's your name?

Mandy.

We're gonna get out of here.

But you gotta help me.

OK? Shout with me.

Help!

- Help!
- Help!

David?

David, it's Lisa, it's urgent.

I'll go
to the bathroom.

No, it's...

Hello?

Hello, Lisa.

Remember me?

Don't you think
I'm worth writing about?

I'm very disappointed.

Who is this?

I have a couple of girls
with me,

- one of whom you know.
- No...

Please, no...

Hello?

Susan?

Please help me!

Where are you?

- I don't...
- Susan?

You get to choose
who lives,

Susan or this other girl Mandy.

No...

I can't...

I'll call you at your office
at 5:00 tomorrow

for your decision.

I can't...

I can't... Please.

Don't tell anyone,

or I'll kill them both.

Bye, Lisa.

Lisa?

Lisa, what is it?
