[bunniefuu]

We disguised it as a poppy
and he gave it to the owner.

Why are you really here?
Because I wanna help you.

Remember when I got taken away
to that detention centre?

I would never have got through that
if it wasn't for you.

'Mum!'
Finn?

12 PM, under the bridge.

Or that'll be the last time
you hear his voice.

'Right,
let's go over this one more time.

'Once those cameras are down,
you all need to leave the building'

as soon as possible,
and then I make my way to the vault.

I'm sorry. What's the matter?
Why are you sorry?

What're you doing?
Move.

Patrick!
Down.

How could you do this to her?

Come on, let's go.

THEY SCREAM

YELLS

THEY SCREAM

Don't-Don't leave us!

Come on, let's get out of here.

Can anybody hear me?

A man has been shot!

We're locked in the vault.

Help! Somebody help us!

A man has been shot.
We are locked in the vault.

Can anybody hear me?

HE COUGHS

It's pointless.
We cleared the building.

ALARMS BLARE

Get in the back of the van.
Back of the van!

Come on. Move it!

Go, go, go!

CAR SCREECHES

We have several people unaccounted
for. Please check your departments.

We need to ensure everyone has
been evacuated from the building.

COUGHS

ALARMS

Can anybody hear me?
A man has been shot.

Somebody help us!

Can anybody hear me?

We are locked in the vault.

'Hello?

'This is the fire department.
Where exactly is the vault located?'

You need to release the door
with the failsafe,

the keypad on the left,

and you have to find the
security guard, he knows the code.

Someone find the security guard.
And get that alarm turned off!

The police will know that
I'm involved.

Dad, shush.
Just in case...

The glove compartment of my car.
Here.

Take my keys.

Take 'em.

'We have the code, entering it now.

'The door is being released.'
It's opening! The vault's opening!

Ro, they're coming.

What are we gonna do?

Varisha, come here.

Just keep with the pressure.
Time is running out.

I've got to try and save Finn.

As you were coming back
from the vault, someone grabbed you,

I heard you scream, I found you,
then he forced us back down here.

They took the money,
they took me hostage,

and then the cleaner
came over to stop him,

that's all you know,
do you understand?

Don't let anybody see you, nobody,

or you'll never get to Finn in time.
I know.

I love you. It's all right.
It's all right. It's all right.

It's gonna be OK.

Go. Go. It's OK. It's OK.

Oh, my God.

Dad!

Oh, God.

SHE COUGHS

Oh, God!

MAN: Two women are unaccounted for.

WOMAN: We've located two.

They're in the vault,
we're going there right now.

We're still searching
for the source of the smoke.

VOICES CONTINUE

Please help! They've
taken my friend, in a security van.

All right,
we have a hostage situation here.

The vault has been cleared out,

suspects have escaped
in a security van.

'Received, police and medics
en route.'

SHE CRIES

We need to move right now.
That's the lot.

HE MUTTERS
Hurry up!

SIREN

'Security van tracker located. Fire
alarm officer's en route.'

SIRENS BLARE

I'll take the side.

Round the back.

The front.

Move forward.

Control, suspect van located.
All clear, vehicle empty.

No trace of suspect or victim. Over.

COUGHS

False alarm. Repeat, false alarm.

Smoke bombs discovered
on first floor.

Building is secure. Police and
ambulance may enter the building.

All right? Come on.

This way.

We need medics down to the vault.
g*nsh*t wounds.

TALKING

What's the latest?
There's two witnesses.

One's been shot,
the other's Varisha Singh.

Rowan Taylor's friend
from last night. Yeah.

And she says
they've taken her hostage.

BOTH: Rowan Taylor.

Seems she was taken
in a stolen security van.

We tracked it, it's been found empty
and abandoned.

OK, thank you.

Hello again, Miss Singh.

You've been through quite an ordeal
since I saw you last night.

I have.

But not as bad as Rowan.
Do you know where she is?

Have you found her, is she OK?
We don't know.

But tell me everything you know
about the people who took her.

There were three of them.
Can you describe them?

Oh, I'm sorry, two of them
had those transit guard helmets on

and I didn't see the other one.

Are you a hundred percent sure
that they left in the security van?

I think so.

I was locked in a safe,
so I don't know.

Thank you, Miss Singh.

PC Evans?
Sir?

I'm going in to take a look.

Find out everything she knows.
Sir.

You stay out here. Make sure
nobody comes in without me knowing.

Will do.
You two, check the first floor.

Sir.

'Transit guard has been located in
the garage, tied up but unharmed.'

Roger that.

You guys, check the rest
of the building. Yes, sir.

I'm going to check the vault.

Has anyone checked the CCTV?

Get me someone who can find the
CCTV footage from this morning.

'Copy that.'

How is he?
He lost consciousness.

Hey, wait there.
Where are you going?

I checked the CCTV for Detective
Simmons. It cuts out around 10.

Wait.

Stop.

Malcolm Taylor.
Take him away, take him away.

Yeah, and once they'd got the money,

that's when they took Rowan
with them, and then out of nowhere,

the cleaner came and-and tried
to stop them, but...

SIGHS

Please try and find her, please.

The cleaner?

Yeah.

You mean Rowan's father?

You didn't think to mention this,
Miss Singh?

That it was the hostage's father
who was shot?

Yeah, no, I-I'm sorry,
so much was happening at once.

I didn't realise
he was working at the bank.

EXHALES

Come on, Finn.

Excuse me, could you tell me how
much I might get for this, please?

Yeah, just a second.

It's so small, you could hide it
in a poppy.

I don't want any trouble.

No, no trouble, no.

But I do know what you did
so you're gonna help me.

I need to know
if there's a place where they meet.

Or, or I could just go
to the police.

Did you meet up with them after
the robbery so they could pay you?

Do they have, like,
a safe place or a safe house?

SHE SIGHS

Look, I really don't
have time for this,

so if you know something
you're gonna tell me.

This didn't come from me.

I met one of them in this old
abandoned building, Jobbertown...

Jobestown?
That's the one.

Go into the glove compartment
of my car.

Where's Finn? Is he in your car?

Look, I need to see my son.

You don't have it, do you?

I had it but they took it.
I know where they are!

g*nsh*t

Get me my money
or I won't miss my next shot.

Just please, just listen.

They're in the old
Jobestown detention centre.

It's an abandoned building
on the east side of town.

They've taken the money there,
but they've got millions.

It's more than 100 grand,
you could have it all.

Millions?
At least two.

Finn, darling, are you all right?
Please just tell me you're OK.

Please tell me!

Why should I believe you?
Because I am in no position to lie.

Take me there.
Please just let me look after him.

Let me see if he's all right.
Where is the money? He needs me.

I just need to see
if he's all right. You drive.

Look, I don't think you understand,
my bank has been robbed,

the vault has been cleaned out
and I demand to know what happened.

We're gonna have to ask you
to leave.

And now I'm being thrown out of
my own office!

While we conduct the investigation,
sir. Carry on, Varisha.

Yeah, er, sorry, yeah,
so Mr Powell ran out of the vault

before he had a chance to lock
the vault, and I just followed him,

and then when I got onto the main
floor, there was smoke everywhere,

people were bumping into me,
I was disorientated

and then he grabbed me, and told me
to take him to the vault.

How do you suppose this man knew
you had access to the vault?

I don't know.
I see.

And can you explain to me
how does a man with a record

like Malcolm Taylor get clearance
to work in a bank even as a cleaner?

I'm just a supervisor on the floor,
I don't know these things.

Between the pawnshop,
Rowan's strange behaviour,

her father being there,

I think she's involved,
and you know something.

I know she's not involved
because she's been taken hostage,

for God's sake!

I'm not absolutely certain,
but I think this could be it.

Stop here.

Doesn't look like
anybody's here to me.

They're inside.

Look, let Finn stay in the car and
I'll come with you to get the money.

Finn, darling, stay there.
Don't worry, I'll be right back.

No, look, he doesn't have to come!
I'm not gonna try anything!

Show me the way.

I don't think they are here.
What do you think, Finn?

They're here.

LAUGHING

MAN: You're right there, boss!

Come on, Patrick.

TALING CONTINUES

LAUGHING

SHE MOUTHS

Patrick. What the f*ck!
How did you find us?

Look, please don't sh**t,
don't sh**t.

Don't.

What are you doing here, Rowan?
He wants it all, Patrick,

he wants all the money
otherwise he's gonna k*ll Finn.

She knows our faces now, Patrick.
Put it down!

PATRICK SIGHS

Why did you come here?

You shouldn't have come here, Rowan.

Down!

Who the f*ck is that, Patrick?

Please, please, Patrick,
just leave the money and go, please.

I can't do that, Rowan.

If you care about me at all,
you'll do it, please.

I'm keeping the money.
Patrick.

Get the money! Hurry up!

Ow!

Come with me.

Steve, come with me!
k*ll the b*stard!

Ow!

Patrick!

I'm here.
It's bad.

Patrick! Are you still there?

Help me!

SCREAMING

Don't leave me, Patrick.

Patrick!

Don't leave me.

Sh. It's OK.

Are you OK? Are you OK?

Help me!

I'm bleeding. I need help.

Shut the f*ck up!

Just go and get me my money.

I... I...

It's OK. Stay there. It's all right.
It's OK.

All right. OK.

OK. OK.

Don't. Please, please!

You should probably take his g*n.

SHE SOBS

I can't let you take that money,
Patrick. Why are you doing this?

But the f*cking going down, Rowan.
I can't do that.

My child's life is in danger.
How about my life? I've earnt this.

You've earned it? You said that
you were gonna help me!

This is about Finn,
it's only ever been about Finn,

it's never been about us.
Yes, so you keep making very clear.

All you have ever
thought about is yourself!

But the f*cking going down, Rowan. I
will do anything to protect my son!

Now, you're not gonna sh**t me,
so put the f*cking g*n down.

You won't get away with it.

Are you sure you got rid of
all the evidence, Patrick?

You're sure you get rid of
all of it, are you?

What have you done?

What have you done, Rowan?!
But the f*cking g*n down!

Patrick, please, I need the money.
Please. They're gonna k*ll him!

It's my money, Rowan!
No, no, please.

Oh! Oh, my God!

Patrick, I didn't meant to,
I'm so sorry.

Mum?

Oh, my God.

I'm sorry.

Oh, er...

I told you...

with the right motivation,

it's amazing what you're capable of.

Mm.

I'm impressed.

I really am.

No, you've got your money, just,
can we just go, please?

g*nsh*t

Mum?

Listen to me. You do exactly as
I tell you to do, do you understand?

Do you understand me? Yeah.
Right.

So you mean to tell me
you didn't question

why her father was in the vault
dressed as a cleaner?

I know it doesn't make any sense.

I did ask him, I tried to ask him,
but he was drifting away.

I thought he was dying.

And then the firefighters showed up

and you know the rest
of the story from thereon in.

Are you sure you're telling me
everything?

Yes, I'm telling you everything
I know. You have to find Rowan.

KNOCK

Sir, I think
you'd better come out here.

Just a minute.
You need to hear this.

What is it?
Control just sent me this 999 call.

'Emergency, which service?

'I think my mum's been kidnapped.
OK, calm down, sir.

'Do you know where she is?'

'We've got another two bodies
up here, sir. Both male.'

Any sign of Rowan Taylor?
'Nothing yet, sir.'

Rowan?

Rowan, are you there?

Hello?

Rowan?

SOBBING
Rowan?

Check their bodies,
there must be a key. Sir.

It's OK, we're gonna get you out.

Come on, come on. Key, key, key!

So, Miss Taylor, let's start
from the beginning, shall we?

Yeah, right. Um...

I'd only been at work a few minutes
when the alarm started going off,

and then there was smoke everywhere,

people were running
in all directions, um...

then I heard a scream so I went to
help and that's when I got grabbed

and he pushed me in front of him.

So before he just appeared
out of nowhere,

when was the last time
you saw Patrick Reid?

Well, um, when-when we broke up,
20 years ago.

Did you manage to get hold of
my son?

It's just that he will have
found out what's going on

and he'll be worried sick. Someone's
on the way to your flat right now.

Can you try to stay focused?
Sorry. Um...

Well, the vault was already open
when we got there.

How did he know it'd be open?

I-I don't know.
So you reached the open vault.

Yeah, then two other men arrived,

and they were dressed in
transit security uniforms,

and they loaded the money
and then they dragged me out

and then my dad turned up and there
was a fight and a shot went off.

It all happened really quickly.
Is he gonna be all right? My dad.

There's no change in his condition.
Yeah.

So, these guys manage to break
into one of the most secure vaults

in this city without any help
from someone on the inside? Yeah.

Sorry, wait, are you...

are you suggesting that I might be
involved somehow? I...

SHE SCOFFS

I was a hostage! My dad got shot!

'I can confirm Malcolm Taylor's car
has been found.'

I mean, he's done
some stupid things in his life,

but he would never rob a bank
that his daughter worked in.

So what was he doing in there?
I don't know!

You were angry at the bank
for letting you go.

You wanted to get them back.

So you contacted your ex-boyfriend
who you knew could help.

What? That's just...

He made you participate
in the pawn shop robbery

to prove your commitment.
God, that's ridiculous.

After that,
you got your father on board.

But you didn't know
what they were capable of.

When they were done with Malcolm,

they shot him
and used you as a hostage.

It's unfortunate
how things turned out,

but you were involved
right from the start, weren't you?

No.

KNOCKING

What is it? Sir, we found this
letter in Mel Taylor's car.

I think you need to read it.

I know. Doesn't make sense to me
either, sir.

Any evidence
found at Patrick Reid's workplace?

Nothing yet, but we're continuing
the search.

And forensics?

Four dead and four weapons. All with
fingerprints that match the victims.

What about the secret camera
found at the scene?

I've checked it, and if anything,
it seems to confirm the conspiracy.

Sir...

could she really be innocent?

DOOR OPENS,
SHE SNIFFS

Can you confirm if this is
your father's handwriting?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, it is.

MAL'S VOICE: "My name is Mal Taylor.

"I am responsible for the robbery
in Hanlow's Bank

"together with Patrick Reid.

"I manipulated my daughter
into divulging the information

"necessary for us to rob the bank.

"I am writing this
in case I get caught.

"I want it to be absolutely clear
she had nothing to do with it.

"Her only offence
was having me for a father.

"I am doing this to try and settle
my many debts

"which Rowan has been paying off
for the past ten years.

"If we get caught
or something happens to me,

"please apologise to Rowan."

It says Patrick recognised you
in the pawn shop.

And later followed you.

He discovered you worked in a bank
and saw an opportunity.

So he tracked down Malcolm
and offered him a cut...

if he got the information
they needed.

Er... Yeah, he said he was
coming back to make amends.

He was able to get a hidden camera
onto your colleague Varisha

without her knowledge.

But when he realised you had been
let go from the bank,

they knew they are to act fast.

Why did he do this?
What was he thinking?

Have you heard from the hospital,
is he conscious?

No. He's not.

I've spoken to the doctors, and
I'm afraid it's not looking good.

Miss Taylor, before you go,

my colleague's confirmed that your
son is back home safe and sound.

He knows you're OK.
Thank you.

They said he looked quite shaken up.

Like he hadn't slept
or eaten in days.

I guess he was just
so worried about you.

Yeah. Or maybe he didn't get fed
all that time he was away from home.

Studying.

If I have any more questions?
Well, you know where to find me.

Chinese?
Sounds good.

ROWAN: Sometimes in life, you find
yourself in an impossible situation,

where your choice to look after
the ones you love

means having to do
the wrong thing...

..but for the right reason.

'Thanks for recommending
that care home.'

Mum'll be really happy there.

Yeah.

It came through, yes.

No, well, actually, it was
a different funding body in the end.

But in short, my experience
reinforced what I already knew.

With so much emphasis
on cyber security,

security on the ground
is being overlooked,

and I'm not in any way saying
that less resources

should be designated
to cyber security,

but if you were to hire me
as your security supervisor,

I would make sure every box was
ticked at ground level. That's it.

One final question, if I may.

Why do you think Hanlow's Bank
failed on a security level?

Well, I mean,

at Hanlow's is the message
from the top down

was always just business,

and therein lie the weaknesses
within the system at every level.

When it's personal,
that's when people are truly willing

to work to their full potential.

Then, well, who knows
what you're capable of?
