03x03 - Episode 3

[bunniefuu]

I was standing right here
when Shaw came in,

so you can't pretend
it didn't happen.

You can't not talk about it.

You're a witness
in the Portland Tower case,

I was the investigating officer.

If the case were re-opened,
I would first be asked

why I haven't declared
this relationship

and then if I'd ever discussed
the case with you.

What would my answer be?
Just don't tell 'em.

That would be a lie.

That is how
this whole thing started -

with a lie.

But what possible harm can
our relationship do to the case?

For a start, Shaw could argue

that the relationship prejudiced me
against him.

It warped my judgement.
I did tell you this when we met.

I did say we shouldn't talk,
but it...

..it was like you didn't wanna hear.

I gave you my number.
I didn't stalk you.

You were the one who called me,
remember,

if we're gonna talk
about what actually happened.

I'm sorry.
I didn't mean it like that.

I don't regret us,
not for one second.

I must... sleep
for a couple of hours.

I've got a m*rder*r
on the custody clock,

and I need to be on my game.
Yes.

You catch the k*ller
of the white girl in 24 hours.

The k*ller of the Black boy...

..not so fast.

You think I don't know that?
I know you know it.

I also know that the Farah Mehenni
case is alive again.

I know she shouldn't have died.
I know the police covered things up.

So I'm looking at you,
the woman I love,

and I'm thinking...

"What will happen this time?"

All right, man. Easy.

MITKO: We don't like changes.
My guy...

He says, "What's going on?"

Shakiel's man used to be Jarral,
but now Jarral is arrested,

and there is a new guy
in on the deal.

What deal?

Jarral told me he didn't trust you.

He said you came from nowhere,

and suddenly
you're Shakiel's best friend.

What do you say to that?

I don't know what to say, you know.

Ask Shakiel.
MITKO CHUCKLES DRYLY

Shakiel says, "Ask you", so I am.

So... where are you from, really?

What is this, a job interview?

Look. I don't know who you are,
and I don't care.

I didn't ask to be Shakiel's friend,

and I don't want
any part of any deal.

My feet are cold,
and I just wanna go back to bed.

And you know what?
Jarral is dumb as sh*t.

If you listen to him,
you must be as dumb as he is.

And if the best thing
Shakiel can do for a back-up

is a doped-up Rasta,
he must be dumb, too.

I'll talk to my guy.

Maybe this whole thing
is a big mistake.

You can go.

You gonna drop me back?
Get a cab.

How? I've got no money, no shoes.

What about the shoes?
MITKO SCOFFS

You're about my size.

Give me the shoes.

Give them to him.

SAFETY CLICKS

Thank you.

W-What's going on?

Steve wants a meeting.
Is he in trouble?

I don't know. You stayed here
all night, didn't you?

ANGEL: Come on, guv.

We'll talk. Yeah? We'll talk.

Why did you wash the car, Ujal?

so maybe they wouldn't do me
for the damage.

What were you doing in Lewisham
two nights ago?

I note that this is not
the licence plate

of the car my client rented.

The driver could be any one
of 10,000 Asian men.

My advice remains the same.
No comment.

This is just the first image
we've managed to capture.

One camera in a city of how many?

Half a million.
Half a million cameras.

What are the chances that we find
the one that catches you, Ujal,

in your SUV with your cloned plates?

It's time to start looking out
for yourself

and not for whoever's paying
for your expensive lawyer.

What were you doing in Lewisham?

No comment.

ELAINE SIGHS,
KNOCK AT DOOR

She got hit by a car.
Ran right over her.

It's as if Shaks wants
everyone to know.

STEVE: Do you know them?
The guys that k*lled Spence?

One was Black... tall.

Had a tattoo on his neck,
like a bird.

Had a tattoo on his neck,
like a bird.

One of the working girls' punters
called an hour ago.

Truck driver.
Said he saw what happened.

Well, correction.
He didn't see, his dashcam did.

He was... otherwise engaged.

He hesitated about coming forward
because he's...

You know, married, kids, etc.

But then he saw Lexi's photo on TV,
and, well, so...

Obviously he'd like
to keep his name...

Yeah. Shall we just watch it?

Archie?
Right.

Car flashes its lights.
You can just see Lexi walk out.

She stands, car accelerates,
she runs.

BRAKES SQUEAL,
CRASH

Watch.

Car goes right past the dashcam.
If I rewind and punch in...

Bloody hell.

Let's show it
to the little b*stard.

Steve.

STEVE: Hey.

Cheers.

All right?
Yeah.

I, er... got rolled last night.
The Bulgarians.

They got into your place?
Yeah.

STEVE SIGHS

Locks, alarms, no problem.
g*n in the face.

Jesus.
What about the camera, the mics?

They didn't bring a scanner.

I know. Lucky.

OK. Well, we'll deactivate them.
What happened next?

They dragged me out,
took me for a drive.

A garage, lots of questions.
What sort of questions?

About Jarral's arrest, about me.

They didn't like
the change of personnel.

They were... suspicious.
Are they still suspicious?

Nah. I went all gangsta on them,
stuck a g*n in their face.

You don't have a g*n.
I took one of theirs.

KIERAN SCOFFS
What?

They made hurtful comments
about my appearance.

You think this came from Shakiel?

Yeah. He used them to check me out.
I think I passed the test.

And what about Shakiel?

Last recording we had from you,
he sounded wobbly,

like he'd grown a conscience
or something.

STEVE SIGHS
Well, I... un-wobbled him.

That's not what I heard on the tape.
The opposite, in fact.

Well, that's good, isn't it?

Whatever you hear,
a jury's gonna hear.

KIERAN LAUGHS DRYLY
Yeah.

Sorry.

Er... think we're still on?

I'm just getting all sorts of grief
from upstairs.

My gut says so.
Next 12, 24 hours.

Now I've met the suppliers,

I can tell you the handover's
going to be fast.

Three, four minutes max,
probably car to car. Uh-huh.

Look. You have to be close.

I can't risk any sort
of tracking device. You understand?

We'll use traffic cams,
council CCTV. We'll be close.

We'll be close.

What's up?
Missus finally kicked you out?

We'll talk
when Shakiel's in handcuffs, yeah?

All right.

THEY ARGUE

Get off me!

Tommo.
Got room for a persistent offender?

We're full. Climate protest.

Hi, Lizzie.
Hey, Tommo.

You want something.
You got that look.

She's trying to ID a g*ng kid,
probably a Soldier.

We've had quite a few Soldiers
through here recently, so...

Er, I'd like a peep
at the custody images.

You tried the PNC?
Yeah. No luck.

Well, I need to know
what case it's for.

Can't you log on,
and I just look over your shoulder?

Hadley taught you well, didn't he?

VOICEMAIL: 'Mary Shaw.
Leave a message.'

BEEP,
HE EXHALES SLOWLY

KNOCKING

Yeah?

Is Josh OK?
Yeah. Why?

Well, I heard you went out.
I thought that...

Jermaine King.

He matches the description
Ryan Kennedy gave

of the guy who k*lled
Spencer Cardoso.

Bird tattoo. Well, kingfisher.
Jermaine King, kingfisher. Mm.

Where'd you get this?

Custody images, Farlow.
Wasn't on PNC.

Perseus is a matter of hours
from kicking off.

Why are you spending time on this?

We have surveillance tapes
that need transcribing.

We could miss something vital.

We nearly missed this.
I'm a detective, not a typist.

This name needs to go
to Sarah Collins.

You still trying to solve her case,
yeah?

I'm trying to catch a m*rder*r.

How do we deliver
this information exactly, Lizzie?

When she asks its provenance,
what do we say? We tell her.

So what if Sarah Collins is
the arresting officer?

This creep stabbed a kid to death.

HE SIGHS
You think I don't care about that?

I don't think you care enough.

What's wrong, Kieran?

Nothing's wrong. You're right.
This is good.

It's a... It's a...
It's a good spot. Well done.

"I was lonely and depressed and went
looking for female companionship..."

What is this, Jane Austen?
Just read.

"I saw the young lady
and drove towards her,

"but my foot slipped,

"and my boot got jammed
between the pedal and the floor."

You've gotta be kidding me.
Nope.

No-one's gonna buy this sh*t.
No.

But any element of accident means

we're looking at manslaughter
and not m*rder.

Also, he refused to say a word
about any of the important stuff.

Who sent him, why they sent him,

how it connects
to Spencer Cardoso's m*rder.

"Police catch Lexi's k*ller
in 24 hours.

"Spencer's k*ller still at large."

That's exactly what my girlfriend
said to me this morning.

PHONE RINGS

Fedden.

OK. I'll send her over.

That was your friend DI Shaw.
He's got an ID for you.

Spencer's k*ller.

Sarah.
Sir.

When is Mary Shaw meeting DSI?

This afternoon.

Allegedly, she has some evidence.
Do you know what it is?

Are you still involved in the case?
No more than you.

But you were in charge of the DSI
investigation into Portland Tower,

and I was in charge of DSI.
And we failed.

This could be a chance
to put that right.

I don't think it's appropriate
to be talking about this, sir.

I'm here to see DI Shaw about a lead
on the Spencer Cardoso case.

That's why I'm here, too.
Shall we go in?

TV PLAYS

Get off, Ry!
Come on, Tia.

LORETTA: All right, you two,
plenty for everyone.

Tia, not on the sofa.
All right!

HIP-HOP PLAYS

You're mad.

DOORBELL
Must have forgot something.

Loretta. Is Ryan in?

We're having something to eat.

I just need to have a word with him.

My man!

All right. Ry, Ry, please...

Kieran? It's your show.
Sir.

For the last two years,
I have been running Perseus.

It's a confi op
into the Eardsley Bluds.

When the m*rder of Spencer Cardoso
went down,

DCS Bailie asked us to listen out
for intelligence. We did.

Now, thanks to the good work
of Lizzie Adama, we have a lead.

Jermaine King.
How did you get onto him?

One of our nominals spoke to an
undercover officer about the m*rder.

One of your nominals Ryan Kennedy?
Uh-huh.

Well, obviously, I will need
more background on the suspect.

Also, the murders of Spencer Cardoso
and Lexi Moss are connected.

You probably know
how they're connected.

Can you share that?

HE SIGHS

This has only been worked on
this morning by DC Adama.

It's intelligence, not evidence. OK?
OK.

This guy King, Kingfisher, whatever,

he worked for the Soldiers
as a roadman.

We think he decided
to strike out on his own,

setting himself up
on Bluds territory,

starting with the drug trade
on Gallowstree Lane.

Last Friday, there was a bust-up
at a concert at Lonsdale Mall.

One of King's mates got GBH'd.

We think the Bluds were warning King
to back off.

King wasn't having it.

He sent a message
by stabbing Spencer.

And Lexi?

According to Ryan, Lexi was used
to set up Spencer's ambush.

The Bluds couldn't let it pass,
so Lexi got k*lled. Tit for tat.

So... what are my grounds
for arresting King?

Er... the punch-up at the mall.

That was the first blow struck
in this w*r.

The victim was an associate
of King's.

King acted in revenge. I mean...

..trawl the CCTV footage
of the mall,

and King is bound to be there.

Until I know for sure,
I can't arrest.

King needs nicking now.

There may be evidence
to seize phones, clothing.

Yeah, but if we nick him now,

our only real source of information
is Ryan Kennedy.

He's going to look like a grass.

So we arrest Ryan, too,
after the operation.

So we should delay arresting King?
We're being crucified

for our failure to arrest
in Spencer's case.

You have an ID now.
I want King nicked today.

I have to go. Thank you, Kieran.

I would like to finish
discussing Lexi's m*rder.

Well, I thought we had finished.
No, sir.

Lexi was a vulnerable female
traded between street gangs.

Her death was clearly part
of a conspiracy.

Now, I've arrested Ujal Jarral.

And I know that he k*lled her,
and I can prove it.

But as to why
and at whose instruction,

I have nothing.

I bet you do.

But you won't share information
about those people

in case it exposes the participants
in her m*rder.

Will that decision stand up
to scrutiny?

Same old Sarah, is it?

Yes, sir.

Here's how we're gonna run it.

Kieran, you give Sarah access
to Perseus.

Sir...
I don't wanna hear it.

You share the intelligence.
Sarah, you develop your case,

but you do not move until
Perseus have made their arrests.

Perseus has priority.
Do you understand?

Yes, sir.

I got your man.

What do you mean?
The wasteman that k*lled Spence.

Kingfisher, they call him.

Know where he lives, everything.
We'll sort it.

When?
I have something happening first,

I need you to be a part of it.

All right, I'm in.

It's a burner.
Keep it charged, keep it on.

Keep your old phone turned off.

Do you know what betrayal is?

Yeah. It's like snitching, innit?

You know something else?

You can only be betrayed
by someone you love.

I love you, Ryan. Don't betray me.

I won't.

Take a look inside it.

Don't wave it around.

I got a deal coming up.

I need you to be my eyes.

You know the street.

You know what should be there
and what shouldn't be.

Something goes wrong,
just point the machine,

and they'll sh*t themselves.

If they don't, get close,
squeeze the trigger

and keep squeezing.

Then we'll take care
of lickle Kingfisher.

Keep that hidden.

And wait for my text.

Er... thing is, my mum's still...
upset about Spence, and...

You need somewhere to crash.

KIERAN: Ryan's family.

Something happens to him,
Shakiel will know.

You question him about Lexi,
Shakiel will know.

Believe me, I would love
to get Shakiel for Lexi.

She's not the first person
he's had m*rder*d,

not by a long shot.

And once he is in custody,
I will help you put it together,

but until then,
Ryan needs to be left in place.

Now, if a car boot full of automatic
weapons doesn't persuade you,

then I don't know what will.

But I've been ordered
to arrest King,

and all I have so far for grounds
is "intelligence",

which will point the finger
straight back to Ryan

and put a vulnerable kid at risk.

So either give me grounds
to arrest King

or give me an offence
to arrest Ryan for.

I mean, you've had him
under surveillance for months...

You must have...
What are you talking about?

We've given you grounds for King.
He'll be on the CCTV at the mall.

Lizzie, you went through
the CCTV footage.

Did you see King?

Er, no,
but I wasn't looking for him.

However, I might have something
you can arrest Ryan on -

a stolen phone.

No. You can't use that.

It's from a conversation
with the UC.

You mean Steve Bradshaw.
Well, aren't you clever?

Can I finish? We have a CCTV image
of Ryan from the phone grab.

Put it on VIPER, show it to the guy
who got his phone nicked.

He'll pick out Ryan.
They rarely identify off CCTV.

You do if I run it. I'll set it up.

Now, I gotta get on.

Jermaine King will have been
at the punch-up at the mall.

That is your grounds.

Thanks.

KNOCKING
Yeah.

Hey.
Hey.

What's going on?
I've never seen you like this.

We're close. I...
I guess we're on...

I don't know. I'm on edge.

No, it's more than that.

The way you were looking
at Sarah Collins,

I thought you were gonna m*rder her.

The thought did cross my mind.

It's a joke. It's...

Kieran. Be honest with me.

My wife told Collins

that she had evidence
about Portland Tower.

Collins told DSI.

No?
Yeah.

But... evidence... No, no.
Well, it... Well, it can't be.

The phone.

You said you were gonna destroy it.

Collins was waiting for me
when I got home.

I slipped it to Mary.
She said she'd destroyed it.

Maybe she didn't.
Maybe?

Yeah, well, there's a chance
that it could be something else,

like, er, I don't know,
a call she overheard or...

In which case, it's just hearsay,
and it'll blow over,

or it's...
Or it's the phone. f*ck.

SHE HYPERVENTILATES
Lizzie, whatever... whatever it is,

whatever happens, this is on me, OK?

You were a rookie cop.

I pressured you
into backing a colleague.

All right? You did nothing wrong.

I believed that then,
and I believe that now.

Except it's not true.

I did do something wrong.
I-I did plenty wrong.

Oh, God, Kieran, it's...

Your wife did this because of me.
This-This job.

"Why" doesn't matter. It's done.
Yeah, I'm gone.

I'm-I'm walking out right now.
I don't care...

Don't you dare. We have a job to do.

Whatever else is going on,
we have a job to do.

That's what matters.

That's what the likes of
Sarah Collins will never understand.

Do the job, complete the task
then face the music.

We have a pre-brief
with Firearms Command in 20 minutes.

I expect you to be there.

Lizzie?

Any luck, Archie?

No. If they weren't all
wearing bloody hoodies,

then it'd be quicker.

FEDDEN: Oh, don't worry.
We know King's there.

Knowing he's there isn't the same
as seeing him there, sir.

It's still grounds for arrest.

LEE: King's just been cell-sited.
He's at home.

Entry team are en route,
they'll send us an RVP.

Excellent. Go grab him.

Keep looking. Call me or Elaine
the second you get an ID.

ELAINE: If we can't confirm
King was at the mall,

what are our grounds?

Intelligence.
What, the source?

Intelligence.

Going against Fedden
on your grounds? Really?

I'm not misrepresenting
the evidence,

no matter who it pisses off.

But if King is there, then it's not
misrepresenting, is it?

Yes. We haven't seen him, have we?
So, if we say that we have,

then we'd be lying.
And when his lawyer looks over it -

and he will look over it
because it's a m*rder

and King will have a silk -

then... the lie'll come out,
and the case'll go down.

We don't lie.

SARAH: Until we have
something better,

your grounds are intelligence.

Get him away from anyone else
when you arrest,

and make sure he's cuffed.

He'll ask for a phone call soon
as he's in custody.

Then hold him incommunicado.

Hopefully by the time that runs out,
we'll have our source nicked, too.

Wait a minute.
What's all this "you", "yours"?

Aren't you coming?

I have a meeting I can't get out of.
You know what you're doing.

Text me when King's in cuffs.

KIERAN: Timing estimate
is anything from


through to tomorrow.

Teams should RV here,
ready to move out by 18:00.

DC Lizzie Adama,

this is Inspector Lucas Stanning,
Firearms Command.

OK, 18:00's fine.
I'll set up shifts.

But where are we moving to?

We believe that Shakiel will want
the exchange to happen

in the part of London
that he knows best.

So if it does go pear-shaped,
he knows the rat-runs.

That large an area,
we're gonna need at least six cars,

two officers in each.
How many bad guys, do you reckon?

We anticipate that there'll be
a car-swap.

Two, maybe three in each car.
Armed?

Shakiel, possibly.
Our UC won't be carrying.

The Bulgarians probably will.

I mean, it is their business,
after all.

Now, I really hope
it doesn't come to fireworks,

but if it does, that's our UC.

Do not, I repeat, do not sh**t him.
I will send you a photo.

I want you to show it to each
and every one of your officers.

I want his face
burnt into their heads.

I promised him I would bring him
back to his kids safe and sound.

I like to keep my promises.
Got it.

OK. So a car swap will be
really quick.

Two minutes, less.

We'll need to be close,
but how can we be close?

Mark Angel, he'll be in
the council CCTV control room.

He'll be using traffic cams,
CCTV to track Shakiel.

You'll get real-time updates
on his route.

Good. Well, if there's nothing else,

I'll go and talk to my guys.
That's it.

OK. We got a couple of hours.

Go home, be back here by 18:00.

It could be a long, dull night,
it could be the opposite.

MAN: Yep.
See you soon.

There is no need for you to stay.
My mum's already at the flat.

I'm gonna go and feed Josh,
and then I'll come back. Lizzie...

What did you say? Complete the task?
Well, that's what I'm gonna do.

Guv, I'm a bit worried
about the CCTV,

I could be looking at 10, 20 cameras
at any one time.

I'm gonna need an extra pair
of eyes.

Use me.

MARK SCOFFS

No, she's only been here
a couple of days,

we need someone
that knows the players.

I know all the players. Show me
any face on the Perseus file.

Go on. Any face.

LIZZIE SIGHS

Rose Makinde,
ex-girlfriend of Ujal Jarral,

flat in Walthamstow
occasionally used as a stash house.

Peter Hughes, roadman for the Bluds,
street name Bobby M.

Enough. She's with you on the CCTV.

Armed Police! Stay where you are!

OFFICERS SHOUT

WOMAN SHOUTS

OFFICER: Suspect detained!

DETAINEE: Get off! Will you f*cking
get off, man! f*cking get off!

Jermaine King,
I am arresting you on suspicion

of murdering Spencer Cardoso
on the 29th of August.

You do not have to say anything,

but it may harm your defence
if you do not mention

when questioned something which
you later rely on in court.

Anything you do say
may be given in evidence.

Do you understand?

Hi.
Hey.

I am Alice Parker.

I worked with Sarah on
the Portland Tower investigation.

Sarah's told me that you have
evidence you want to share with DSI.

Yeah.

May I ask what the evidence is?

It's the mobile phone belonging
to the dead girl, Farah Mehenni.

And how did you get it?

My husband, Kieran Shaw,
gave it to me.

When?

When you came to search our home.

The coffee.
Yeah.

Well, 20 minutes ago,
you said you had a cell available.

What happened?

If they've glued themselves
to the floor, un-bloody glue them,

I've got a m*rder suspect here!

Oi. I need to take a sh*t.

Put a plug in it.

What did she say?

I've got my rights, yeah,
and I need to take a sh*t.

Shut up, will you?

All right, I'm gonna let it go
right here, then.

Jesus, just take him
to the bathroom.

DS Elaine Lucas, Homicide,
can I talk to Custody?

Have you listened to the phone?
No.

Does your husband know
that you have it?

I told him I'd destroyed it.

Is the phone in a safe place?
Yeah.

ALICE SIGHS

Portland Tower happened
two and a half years ago.

So why come forward now?

That's my business.

Well, I'm afraid
it's our business, too.

If the phone is what you say it is,
you have withheld evidence.

You could be charged with perverting
the course of justice.

Your motivation is relevant.

My husband thinks lies don't matter.

I want him to understand that
his lies have ruined lives.

I'll need to pick up the phone.
When can I do that?

Erm, tomorrow morning,
after my daughter's gone to school.

Elaine.
King got away.

'What?'
King got away.

What?

All custody cells were full,
we were holding him at the flat.

We uncuffed him to let him go
to the toilet.

He forced the skylight,
he's as thin as a f*cking snake...

He got away over the roof.

We're in pursuit, but...

I'm so sorry, Sarah.

DIAL TONE

'Yeah?'
It's Sarah Collins.

What is it?

I'm afraid Jermaine King
has escaped from custody.

'A manhunt...'
Wait, wait, wait, what?

He what?

He escaped. A manhunt...

'You let a m*rder suspect escape,
is that right?'

I wasn't there personally.

No, you weren't there personally,
Collins, were you?

You were too busy doing something
much more important,

like interviewing my wife
about something

that didn't happen two years ago.

The reason I'm calling
is Ryan Kennedy.

The grounds for arrest
were given as intelligence.

King knows this, so...

'I told you not to say
intelligence!'

I said use the CCTV!

Yeah, we didn't find him
on the CCTV, and we couldn't lie.

And... now King is in the wind,

and... he may believe Ryan
gave him up.

Of course he'll believe it.

So, the reason I'm calling is,
have you been able to connect Ryan

to the stolen phone?

Obviously, it's imperative
that we arrest Ryan.

I know you have a lot on, but...

I'll get on it.

LINE BEEPS

Rainbow ones, chocolate ones,
what else have you got?

Hi.

Get started
on your homework, love.

Please. I... I...
I really need to talk to you.

There is nothing going on
between Kieran and me.

He tried to help me, that is all,
that is literally all.

I'm sorry I agreed to work with him,
but tomorrow is the last day.

After that, I will transfer,
I will leave London,

and I will never see him again.

Well, you have a child together.

So he's never gonna agree to that.
He'll have to.

Having Joshua was my choice,
not his.

Just... please, don't go through
with this.

Yes, you'll destroy him,
but you'll destroy yourself, too.

I'm already destroyed.

You weren't the first,
you wouldn't be the last.

Now he knows that
there are consequences.

Yes, and for you, too.

What do you mean?

If you do what you're planning,

there'll be consequences
for you, too.

Press camped outside your house,

stories about her dad
on the TV and at school.

You can avoid all of that.
You can keep her innocent.

You can keep all this, and Kieran,

because I will be gone, I promise.

You're just trying to save yourself
from the trouble you're in.

Nothing will save me from that.

In my dreams, all I see
is a girl falling off a roof.

I'm saying... you don't have
to live like that.

It's not too late.

It is too late.

They know everything.

Hi.
Hey.

Thanks.

SHE GRUNTS

I needed that.

Bad day?

And it's still going on.

I'm afraid I'll have
to swallow this, and then...

OK.

Can I ask about, er...

the thing I can't ask about?

All I can say is that justice might
finally be coming for Farah Mehenni.

SHE SIGHS

What does that mean for the police?

I suppose...
a massive public embarrassment.

But you'll be all right.

You always knew
there was something wrong.

MOBILE PHONE RINGS

Hi.

We got a positive ID on VIPER

from the investment banker
whose phone Ryan Kennedy stole.

'Call robbery squad, go nick him.'

I will. And thank you.

Sure.

What is it?

I always had this clear,
bright line in my head.

Right and wrong, correct behaviour,
not correct behaviour.

And now...

Sarah, you're looking at me
like this is my fault.

No, not you. Never you.

You... you have made me so happy.

But...

that was one of the officers
from the Portland Tower case.

He could be suspended from service,
he could maybe even go to jail.

But he took time out
from a big operation

to give me the information I need
to keep a kid out of trouble.

How am I supposed to feel
about that? How do I...

How do I compartmentalise?

So, on the one hand,

you have a police officer
who's broken the law.

And on the other,

you have a 15-year-old girl
who died in terror.

It should be pretty easy to
compartmentalise that, shouldn't it?

Yeah.

You're right.

I'm sorry. I've gotta go.

Bye, love.

PHONE BUZZES

WOMAN: 'Hey, you called?'

You should stay at home with Josh.

Chances are... chances are
it won't happen tonight.

Probably won't even...
probably won't even happen tomorrow.

'It's going to happen, Kieran.
You're going to get him.'

'I'll see you soon. OK?'

Yeah.

OK.

Those your shoes?

Yeah, they're mine.

The other guy had nice shoes,
but smelly feet.

So, whose yard is this?

A friend with benefits.

DOOR CLOSES

I'm sorry I'm late, babes.

This is Steve.

Hi. Becca.

Hey.

It's all packed.

Cash.

Drugs.
That's my girl.

Yeah, well, can you get it
out of here?

Because all that much cash
is making me nervous.

It's gone. That's why my man's here.

Skoda's in one of the parking bays.
Put it in the boot.

Ah, ah, ah. What about the stray?

g*ns FIRING ON GAME

GAME SHUTS OFF

You cool?

Becca looking after you, yeah?

Yeah. Thanks.

Keep that thing safe.

Keep the phone close to you, yeah?

Good man.

I know. Should be Jarral doing this.

Where's my dog when I need him, hm?

Stuff in the boot?

No, I gave it to the kids.

Funny.

You doing anything tomorrow morning?

Need a driver, got a job to do.

How early tomorrow morning?
Seven. Be ready.

What you looking at?

PHONE VIBRATES

MARK: All right, guys, eyes up.

We're on.

OFFICERS CHATTER

Seven tomorrow morning.

KNOCK ON DOOR
Yes, Lee?

Robbery squad are on the estate,

they'll be at Ryan's
in a couple of minutes.

Thanks.

KNOCK ON DOOR

Yeah, all right.

KNOCKING CONTINUES

Hey, all right.

KNOCKING CONTINUES

LORETTA EXCLAIMS

Who the hell are you?!
Shut up!

Where is he? Where's Ryan?

Come out of my house! Are you...?
You know what I'm saying, man.

Your son is a f*cking snitch!
Tell me where he is!

I don't know.
He went out hours ago.

What's his phone number?
Yeah, I don't know, he changed it.

You got Ryan's number?
Piss off.

Take her.
Take me.

f*ck off!
Take me!

f*ck off!

TIA SCREAMS

Be quiet!
Get off me! Stop!

f*ck!

What's happened?
That was the robbery squad.

King got there first. Ryan wasn't
home. So King took his sister, Tia.
