[bunniefuu]

[upbeat rock]

[James] After the m*rder, other crimes
seemed pretty easy by comparison

- How do you know how to do that?
- Practice

[engine starts]

I know how to do a lot of things

Like what?

Build a dam

Taxidermy

Make yoghurt

[engine sputters and starts]

♪ You know that I'm sorry ♪

My dad's gonna love you

♪ I made you blue ♪

[engine revs]

♪ There will never be another ♪

♪ Boy for me like you! ♪

[classic rock]

[James] The radio in the car was broken
There was one CD

And only one track that didn't skip

♪ Keep on running ♪

♪ Keep on hiding ♪

♪ One fine day,
I'm gonna be the one ♪

♪ To make you understand ♪

♪ Oh, yeah! I'm gonna be your man ♪

[James] At first, it was OK

It was a good song

[track starts over]

[James] But its appeal
eventually palled

[silence]

Do you feel bad about we did?

About the man?

[James] I was pleased Alyssa used "we"
in relation to the incident

He was attacking you

Yeah

And those girls in the photos

[screech]

Yeah

[Alyssa] We did the world a favor

If I was the police,
I'd give us f*cking medals or something

They probably will

[James] They didn't

[foreboding music]

[soft country music]

[James] As the hours passed,
I realized that I felt different

Sort of new

She'd come back for me

And we were really doing something,
going somewhere

And it felt good

Oh, sh*t

Alyssa?

Wake up

[sighs] Have a nice day

[door chimes]

[door closes]

[woman] Did he buy a key ring?

[sighs] No

{\an8}Did you encourage him to buy a key ring?

- Yes
- Don't lie

No

Well...

if you get cancer, you'll only have
yourself to blame, won't you?

[distant traffic]

[percussions]

[James] OK

I'll keep the engine running
You get out, fill up, just a little bit

Enough to get to your dad's

And then we drive off
before anyone notices, OK?

You've really come out of your shell,
you know

Huh?

It's hot

[Jocelyn grunts]

Eight o'clock in the morning

[percussions build]

sh*t

[sighs]

[quietly] All right...

[music fades]

[Jocelyn] Morning!

- Hiya
- Need a hand?

Nah, you're all right, thanks

You can't fill up
with the car running can you?

What?

Oh, yeah

[percussions]

Can you turn the engine off, please?

[engine sputters and stops]

Let me help you
It's a bit temperamental that one

It's fine, thanks

- Full t*nk?
- No, we only want a bit

Better to be on the safe side, isn't it?

OK, sure. Fill her up

[whispers] Police

[mouths] What?

[Jocelyn] Let's go in and pay, shall we?

After you

[percussions build]

[Alyssa] If this is what gets us caught,
I'm going to k*ll myself,

from shame

[door chimes]

[Alyssa] sh*t, sh*t, sh*t

This young lady would like to pay
for pump number seven

[Jocelyn] Frodo!

[till beeps]

Cash or card?

Like to buy a key ring? For cancer

- Not now!
- What?

Cash or card?

- Have you got a toilet?
- No

- Isn't that illegal?
- We don't have one

Yeah, we do

- Shut up!
- Do you want me to wet myself?

Do you want me to call the police?

They might like to know
where you got your car from

I need a toilet!

[Alyssa screams] Get off me!

- Ah!
- Frodo, call the police

[electric guitar riff]

[silence]

[Teri] I take it you recognize that

I gave it him for his birthday

Which birthday was this?

His thirteenth

I'm sorry, why on earth would you
give a 13-year-old boy a hunting Kn*fe?

Well, he asked for it

Actually, no,
he asked for a machete

But I said that was a bit full on

[Teri scoffs]

This Kn*fe has been confirmed
as a m*rder w*apon

What?

Look, James...

He's weird, OK? But he's...

he's not dangerous

[electric guitar]

You let her go, or I'll blow
your f*cking head off

He's really not

- Did you hear me?
- That's just your hand, isn't it?

- No
- Well, what kind of g*n is it, then?

[Jocelyn] Come on, I'm interested
My husband owns a couple

- You got a husband? Ow!
- What kind?

It's a Glock 17MB. Ambidextrous
magazine catch. Recoil-operated

19 rounds

[Alyssa] Yes, James!

[Jocelyn] Frodo, call the police

Ow!

[Alyssa screams]

[Jocelyn] Frodo!

Call the police, you f*cking moron!

[Jocelyn screams]

Told you we had a toilet

[banging and screaming]

[Jocelyn screams] Let me out!
Let me out now!

[Jocelyn] Frodo!

I don't like my life

So, do something

[banging]

[Jocelyn] Frodo!

[silence]

[banging]

[banging continues]

[Jocelyn] Frodo!

[clatter]

[Jocelyn] What was that?

Nice one, Frodo

[banging]

I'm just saying, it's a bit of a jump,
that's all

[Teri] What is?

Well, it's weird

It is

They steal a car
and he has a Kn*fe, sure, but...

why would they k*ll someone?

Well, he's had the Kn*fe
since he was 13 years old

I had an air r*fle when I was ten

Nearly blinded my sister

That's interesting

[Teri] What?

[James] Things had started to get
slightly out of hand

[Jocelyn] I'm going to get you arrested,
and then I'm going to sue you!

All of you!

Shut up!

[James] We needed to get out of there

- Frodo?
- Yeah

Is that your actual name?
Like, your birth name?

Yeah

Listen, Frodo, we've got
to get back on the road

OK, yeah, cool
Where are we going?

- What?
- I'm coming with you

[Frodo] What do we need?
Juice, snacks...

[Jocelyn] Frodo!

For energy

[Jocelyn] Frodo!

- Do you guys smoke?
- Not really

I do. From now

[Jocelyn] Oh, come on, Frodo!

I'm just gonna start the car

He's just hot-wiring. It takes a while

Oh, OK. Cool

Do you want some alcohol?

Uh, yeah, sure

Can you grab us a couple
of bottles of that whiskey on top?

- What? This one?
- Yeah, the Glen-thingy one

[Alyssa] It's really expensive
[Jocelyn] Don't you dare!

[Alyssa] His trust in us is
kind of heartbreaking

But what are you gonna do?

[rock music]

f*cking drive!

[music stops]

[Teri] We're sorry to have to do this,

but we just need
to ask some more questions

[Eunice sighs]

Going back a few years, there was talk
among old colleagues, about accusations

made against Clive by some students

- Can you tell us anything about those?
- Yes

I can tell you it was a long time ago...

and that both accusations were dropped

- We know that, but...
- And I can tell you...

that some young women,
rather than admit

their grades are dropping
because they're lazy

or on dr*gs half the time,

would rather accuse
an innocent man of sexual as*ault

No one would have any reason
to cause him harm?

I would like it...

if you would get on with your job

and find whoever m*rder*d my son

Rather than trying to blame him
for his own death

I'll show you out

Please, we'll see ourselves out

He was your only one?

[clock ticks]

It's better to be in charge of the truth,
you know?

In case it ever comes out

It tends to,

in situations like this. It's, uh...

It's just my experience

It's better to be, you know...

in control

[sharp] Get out

[ominous chords]

I'm so sorry for your loss

[door opens and closes]

[melancholy music]

[Alyssa] I think I'm starting
to feel a bit...

more like myself

Sometimes, I think I feel more like myself
with James than I do on my own

Hey, can you stop?

[Alyssa] Everything feels really simple

[phone rings]

[Gwen] Hello?
[Alyssa] Hi, Mum

Oh, my God, Alyssa,
where the hell are you?

- We've had the police around...
- Just shut up and listen to me

- Alyssa!
- Mum

Are you... are you OK?

You're never going to see me again. Ever

I'm not coming home

[quavering] What's happened, Alyssa?
Where are you?

- Are you with your dad?
- No

Come home, Alyssa

Tell Tony I said, "f*ck off."

[blues]

Let's go

[Tony] Who was on the phone?

My mum

♪ Ooh, ooh, ooh, baby ♪

♪ Sweet babe ♪

♪ Ooh, ooh, ooh, baby ♪

♪ Sweet babe ♪

[music fades]

Has Teri left?

[soft rock]

[man] Eunice?

Hi, this is Teri. Leave a message
[Eunice groans]

Cheers

Cheers

It's really nice to meet you

Hiya

- Eunice, what...
- Come back to work

- I'm sorry...
- You have to see this

- Excuse me, who are you?
- DC Noon. You have to see this

- Are you in the police?
- Is this a date?

- Seriously, Eunice, can you just...
- How old are you?

- For f*ck's sake!
- You have to see this

- No!
- You have to. It's important

- Not now
- Yes, now

I'm really sorry

[beep]

[screaming]

[man] Hey!

I said stay still!
[screaming]

[Teri] f*cking hell

[seagulls cry]

Right. Let's do this

- Are you OK?
- Course I am

James, we k*lled a r*pist,
turned our backs on the law,

and I'm finally gonna meet my dad again
It's mega. Come on

[soft country music]

[door opens]

[Debbie] Yeah?

Hi. Is Leslie in?

[silence]

Leslie doesn't live here anymore

[Alyssa] No

What?

Who are you?

[seagulls cry]

Do you know where he is now?

Just leave it, James

Yeah

They still k*lled him

Whatever he might have done,

they cut his throat
and they've done a runner

- Yeah, but if it was self-defense?
- Then they'll get manslaughter

- So, how did you meet her?
- What?

Ugh...

OK. I'm going home

[radio] DC Noon? Come in, DC Noon?

[beep] Yeah, go ahead

We found the kids' most recent location

Where?

They robbed a petrol station 100 miles
south east of here this morning

Held it up at gunpoint
Locked the manager in the toilet

We've got the CCTV

[beep] Coming in now

[melancholy music]

[engine sputters]

[brakes creak]

[Alyssa] How do we know
this is the right way?

[James] Well, she said left
and then left again, so...

I think it's this way

[Alyssa] Sometimes you realize
you had a thing keeping you going

that might be a lie...

When you actually really understand that,

that the whole thing might have been
a lie the whole time,

it's like you swallowed a stone

But not recently

You swallowed it years ago

What if this is sh*t?

Why didn't he tell me that he moved?

Maybe it's really recent

Come on

[insects chirp]

[music fades]

[distant TV]

[Alyssa] I'm really scared

I'm really scared

[TV continues]

[upbeat indie music]

[door opens]

Hi, Dad
