00:00You
00:22All Evans sorry guys, what are you selling? I probably don't need it definitely can't afford it. We're buying not selling
00:28Sam Hague what about you were the one that found him
00:33Yeah, he's a person of interest in the case that we're working on
00:36Sam's dead four years now. Yeah, September 26 woman named Merit Lingard. We're missing on the 27th
00:42Okay, they were in a relationship what sort of relationship? That's what we're trying to figure out
00:49Is it the adrenaline? I mean is that the attraction the danger? No, it's not really like that
00:54Climbing takes focus more like meditating meditating by hanging on by your fingertips
00:58Yeah, I suppose you can't understand it unless you've done it. Any of these Hague? Yeah, which one's Hague you? Oh
01:08Think we got a lucky chap. Yeah, he was pissed off. I took that picture of him. Can I have that? Sure. Thanks
01:14So tell us how you found him. I went up there early one morning to take some photos for the website
01:20That's when I noticed that Sam's car was in the car park. How early? Oh before the gate was open
01:26I had my own key, but that meant that Sam's car had been locked in overnight
01:31Any idea how he fell off? I mean outside obviously that he let go. I couldn't say
01:36Other than he broke my cardinal rule never claim alone. And why would he do that?
01:41Don't know
01:42Maybe he'd been watching too many Alex Honnold videos and decided to free solo the crag. Yeah, like a fucking idiot
01:48Know it yourselves. Thank you
01:52So what he like to take risks with Sam
01:56This whole damn life was one big risk. I think he might have preferred the word adventure
02:01He shows up one afternoon saying he needed a distraction that he was bored with his routine
02:05Investigating murderers or whatever if you can believe that you didn't like him. No, like Sam
02:10I just wasn't thrilled about his friendship with Paul. Why? Well, he was a psycho for one day
02:16Chloe, come on. He was look I wasn't remotely surprised when I heard he'd fall and I was just relieved that Paul wasn't with him
02:21You know that he knew you didn't like having him around because he was always around. He was lonely. Are you reap what you sow?
02:29Meaning he was responsible for his own death meaning it was inevitable
02:33Look, I don't know if Sam was having a relationship with this and marriage. Yeah
02:38This merit person, but if it was personal, he never mentioned it and if it was professional was no way would have told me about it
02:46Well, we don't know what it was here. Did he ever mention anyone other friends, maybe family girlfriend?
02:51Well, like I said, he was lonely when he wasn't at work. He was either here with us or up on the crag. Yeah, where's Paul?
03:00Okay, well, I think we've taken up enough your time. Thank you
03:04Uh, how often did Sam climb the crag?
03:11Once a week
03:12On any particular day or? No, but it was usually later on when it was less busy
03:17And how long does it take to get to the top?
03:21Well, for Sam, 45 minutes. Longer if he was free soloing it
03:24Why longer? Because you're more careful when there isn't a rope
03:27Ahem
03:29Thank you
03:30Sure
03:30So we climbed all the way up there without any ropes
03:40Doesn't exactly scream murder so much as what the fuck did you expect?
03:46There is at least a dozen signs around here stating in hours of the park
03:49And how if you're still here, the gate will be locked and your vehicle will be unable to leave
03:54He ignored the signs
03:56Sam Haig fell on Sunday. We know this because it wasn't fun until Monday when Paul Evans saw his car still in the car park
04:02Sam Haig climbed there once a week. The climb takes 45 minutes or an hour if you free climb
04:07I get your point
04:09He knew he did not have enough time. He knew the rules. Then why did he do it?
04:12Well, either he was a raving lunatic like what's-her-name said in there or someone chucked him off
04:17Again, why? I don't know, but I can guarantee you the answer lies with whatever he was doing with Merritt as opposed to here
04:22He didn't have his car keys
04:25Somehow his car is locked with his equipment bag still in sight, but no keys were ever found
04:31Not in any of the lockers inside the climbing center, not on his person, not anywhere around here where he fell
04:37I won't argue. It's all wrong. It's all obviously wrong as it was with Merritt where I come from when facts are being so clearly ignored
04:47It's never because of incompetence
05:07I won't argue
05:26Her
05:30Her
05:32Her
05:34I don't know.
06:04Sam Haig. Wasn't sure you'd come.
06:07I'm not staying.
06:09Oh?
06:10You need to stop bothering my PA.
06:12Sabrina said I was bothering you.
06:13No, I'm saying it.
06:15Okay.
06:16Not remotely interested in talking to a reporter about my work.
06:20Understood.
06:22Well, thank you for taking the time to come by and tell me so in person.
06:34I might as well have something to eat.
06:37Here, the onion soup's amazing.
06:43You don't do profiles.
06:46Not anymore, no.
06:47You cover organised crime.
06:49Yeah.
06:50So why would you want to write about me?
06:52I don't.
06:53Like you said, you're not my thing at all.
06:55The idea came up in a meeting.
06:57I see.
06:58It was my editor.
06:59So a statement you made on TV, the one about how nobody gets away with anything.
07:05And I thought you might be someone worth looking into.
07:07But not you.
07:08I mean, I did what I do.
07:10Found some interesting things.
07:12But?
07:12But it's maybe the stuff that I couldn't find that's more interesting.
07:16Like what?
07:18Like your background.
07:20More in particular.
07:21What about more in particular?
07:22You don't talk about it.
07:25You talk about uni.
07:27You talk about work.
07:31I can't find anything where you talk about you.
07:34Because I'm the least interesting part of my life.
07:38Rwanda.
07:38Well, unlike most people, I don't curate my private life.
07:44Keep it private.
07:45Yeah.
07:46You ought to remain a mystery.
07:47I get that.
07:47Hey, Sam.
07:49Bullshit.
07:51Let's cut the cute little boy act and get to what's happening here.
07:55You think there's something rotten in my department.
07:59Something having to do with, say, oh, I don't know, organised crime?
08:05So that's why you came to meet me in person.
08:07You want to eyeball me?
08:10Yeah, I'd do the same.
08:12So is there.
08:14Something rotten in Denmark?
08:16I have no idea.
08:17But if you're the one asking, I bet you have one.
08:21Your dad's a fisherman, right?
08:23So you know that a boat with a weak spot in the hull is the same as a boat with a leak.
08:27And in that awesome metaphor, am I the weak spot or the leak?
08:31Maybe you're just on a leaky boat.
08:33You're the mystery.
08:36Am I?
08:37More like a phantom.
08:38Byline and a bunch of headlines.
08:40Lots of awards.
08:42But no bio, no social media, no recent photos.
08:49Camera makes me look fat.
08:50Well, given who and what you write about, I suppose some level of caution is necessary.
08:55Only if I want to continue living.
09:01I can't be my own subject.
09:03And in that regard, you and I are in the same boat, so to speak.
09:09Enjoy your soup, Mr. Hake.
09:11Hello?
09:39Oh, hello.
09:40Need some help.
09:41Eh, yeah, that'd be lovely.
09:49Where is it going?
09:50Eh, just over there.
09:51Sorry.
09:54It's heavier than it looks.
10:05I'll just go the way around.
10:06Oh.
10:10Just grab it.
10:14Oh.
10:14Yeah.
10:17You got it?
10:18Yeah, you got it.
10:21Okay, cool.
10:23So, I'm looking forward to...
10:24Oh, hold on.
10:24Okay.
10:38Okay.
10:38I'm looking for Carl.
10:47Well, with regard to...
10:49Oh, we had an appointment, which, of course, he missed.
10:52So, I'm here to tell him how I feel about that.
10:54And you are?
10:55Rachel Irving.
10:56I'm working with HR.
10:59You're the cover for Dr. Sonnenberg.
11:01You should be a detective.
11:02Oh, well, I heard Carl say to someone that you were very nice to look at, so.
11:08Is that a urinal?
11:10Is, um, is Sally coming back?
11:13Eh, Dr. Sonnenberg?
11:16I don't think so.
11:19Were you seeing her?
11:22Maybe for your OCD?
11:23I've not seen her any more, eh?
11:27I mean, I only saw her, like, once or twice.
11:30Maybe a bit more than that, but, um...
11:33No, that was a while ago.
11:34She was nice.
11:36I had a bit of PTSD.
11:38Along with the OCD.
11:41And some ADHD.
11:43BED.
11:44Wow.
11:45Walloped by the whole alphabet.
11:46Right in the bohookey, yeah.
11:48Did the tennis balls help?
11:50Not really, no.
11:51But, uh, she seemed very keen.
11:53So, I've got a very firm handshake now.
11:56How are you feeling now?
11:57Better.
11:59I mean, not totally better.
12:01I get the old flashback, but, um...
12:04It's all right.
12:06We don't have to talk about it if you don't want to.
12:11Looks like a big case.
12:13Aye.
12:14Thought he was exaggerating.
12:16Eh, no.
12:17Carl doesn't really lie.
12:18Not about the big stuff, anyway.
12:20Just about himself.
12:22Hmm.
12:23That's the human condition, isn't it?
12:25Protecting ourselves.
12:26Well, I find the human condition to be more indecision, disappointment and depression.
12:32What's your name?
12:34Eh, Rose.
12:36Well, Rose, we've only just met.
12:38So, take this as you will.
12:39But maybe sitting in a dark basement isn't the best place for you.
12:43I think I met her once.
12:46Marriott Lingard.
12:47Not on the job?
12:48No.
12:49At a party.
12:50The next.
12:51Lawyers.
12:52They all know each other.
12:53What was she like?
12:55Guarded.
12:55Well, I should get going.
12:59If you do see Carl...
13:01I was a passenger in a pursuit when we hit a pedestrian.
13:05Ferry Road.
13:06Pensioner.
13:07I'm so sorry.
13:12I remember that.
13:14Me too.
13:15Which is the problem.
13:16Er, what was your message for Carl?
13:23It doesn't matter.
13:25I mean, why bother you?
13:26We'll just ignore it.
13:27I think he feels responsible.
13:30For what?
13:33Everything.
13:36Well, it was nice to meet you, Rose.
13:40Wow.
13:42You weren't kidding about that handshake.
13:46It's not that unusual.
14:01Sam Hay met lots of his sources in hotels of one sort or another.
14:05Yeah, I'm sure.
14:06But did any of them go missing after?
14:07Or in this case, the day after Sam died?
14:10I obviously couldn't say.
14:11Could he have been working on a story with Merit?
14:13One that put her at risk as well?
14:15Well, if he was, it would be the first I've heard of it.
14:18But that also isn't so unusual.
14:20But you were his editor.
14:21Doesn't mean I knew what he was up to.
14:24Sam worked under the radar for his own safety.
14:27How did that work?
14:28Well, I spoke with him.
14:29But I rarely saw him.
14:30He lived in the sticks.
14:31He's a burner phone.
14:33I'm not even sure if Sam Hague was his real name.
14:36We had what you might call an arm's length relationship.
14:39Still, you must have known what he was working on.
14:42Not until he was ready to tell me.
14:44Until then, he did his own thing.
14:47I assume he took notes?
14:48I'm sure he did.
14:50But I swear he may have kept them.
14:52I'm afraid that information died along with him.
14:54And probably for the best.
14:56You weren't curious at all.
14:57I was damn curious.
15:00And great effort was made to locate any of his work product.
15:04But nothing was found.
15:05That itself is curious.
15:07Again, not if you knew the sorts of people Sam spent his time with.
15:11Do you think one of them might have shoved him off the cliff?
15:13This may sound surprising coming from someone like me.
15:16But not everything is a conspiracy.
15:19As Freud liked to say, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
15:24And sometimes it's a big throbbing.
15:26Thank you very much for your time.
15:31I thought I'd give you a wee call so you can see our new home.
15:35Yeah, that's right.
15:36We're down in the fucking basement.
15:40Lots of storage.
15:43Helmets.
15:44Need to remember them.
15:49That's the biggins' desk.
15:51Akram's desk.
15:53And my desk.
15:54Oh, over here.
15:56Here we have the bathroom unit.
15:59Got some lovely showers.
16:02A disgusting sink.
16:05And some toilets so horrendous the rats avoid them.
16:08I had no idea any of this stuff was even down here.
16:12Before my time, I guess.
16:14Do you have a tissue?
16:14Look, I'm sorry for falling all to pieces the other day.
16:20Thank you for setting me right.
16:22Is that the board behind you?
16:23Yeah.
16:24What, do you want to see it?
16:25No, I want to see more urinals.
16:26Yeah, I fucking want to see it.
16:28Yeah, I fucking want to see it.
16:34What's with a comorant?
16:35The what?
16:36The comorant, the bird on the hat.
16:39Oh, no.
16:40That's a buberi.
16:41Is it?
16:42Fuck.
16:43It's a comorant.
16:44It's a real bird.
16:45It's a myth that lives in locks and eats otters and shit.
16:47What, there's a bird that eats otters?
16:49It's not a real one.
16:49In fact, it changes shape.
16:50Sometimes it's a giant insect that sucks the blood out of horses.
16:53Really?
16:54Yeah, really.
16:54But that's not a buberi, it's a comorant.
16:56But how do you know?
16:58Because I'm a fucking fisherman.
17:00Or I was.
17:00Anyway, what's it doing on the board?
17:02Well, whatever type of bird it is, I think maybe it et merit.
17:05What?
17:07William Lingard twice saw someone wearing that hat.
17:10Once on the boat and once at home.
17:11At home?
17:12Apparently, someone was prowling around the house.
17:16Why apparently?
17:17William isn't exactly communicative, so he drew this one after he escaped from Eggly house.
17:23And this one, right before she disappeared.
17:28Can you do me a favour, pal?
17:29Can you scan both sides of that and send it over to me?
17:33Okay.
17:35Inspector?
17:37Dennis Piper?
17:38Or was it your press conference?
17:40Lucky you.
17:41Erm, I wondered if you'd heard the news.
17:43What news?
17:43About PC Anderson's fiancée?
17:45The officer who was killed in Leith Park?
17:47I know who the fuck he was.
17:48What about his fiancée?
17:49She had her baby today.
17:51A wee girl.
17:52Care to comment?
17:53Yeah.
17:53Fuck off.
17:54No message for her.
17:56How about an apology?
17:57She blames you, Mark.
18:04Says it should have been you who died.
18:06Well, maybe it should.
18:08Come on.
18:10Carol's not down here.
18:21I know, ma'am.
18:22He took some personal time.
18:23Of course he did.
18:24Walk me through all of this.
18:26I should probably let DCI Mork.
18:27Just walk me through it.
18:28Right.
18:29Well, along with determining her movements in the weeks before she disappeared, we are
18:31trying to get a sense of who Meritlingard was.
18:32And who was she?
18:33She was controversial.
18:34So basically you don't have much.
18:35Not yet.
18:36We don't.
18:37There was a...
18:38...
18:52...
18:54...
18:56So basically you don't have much.
18:58Not yet.
18:59We don't.
19:00There was a...
19:01...
19:03There was an incident at the Lingard house.
19:07An incident?
19:08Apparently.
19:09A young man who was squatting there with two females was admitted to hospital.
19:14With a crushed windpipe.
19:16That sounds painful.
19:17Knock it off.
19:18I didn't crush his windpipe.
19:20I didn't say you did.
19:21I meant I didn't crush it.
19:23I only bruised it.
19:24I could have, of course, have crushed it.
19:27But then he wouldn't have been able to talk.
19:30Where do you learn such techniques?
19:34I grew up in a very rough part of Syria.
19:37Isn't it all rough over there these days?
19:39Some of it is very beautiful.
19:41You understand that you're not in Syria?
19:45You're not a policeman.
19:46Yes, ma'am.
19:47You're here to assist Carol.
19:49And...
19:50It's a real pleasure.
19:52Because if anything should happen while you're out there playing policeman, bruising,
19:56but not crushing people's necks.
19:59There'd be hell to pay.
20:01For all of us.
20:03Of course, ma'am.
20:04I understand.
20:05Good.
20:06Keep me informed.
20:18Fucking hell.
20:26Don't know who's doing your PR, but I'd be asking for a refund.
20:28Here we go.
20:30Some good surgeons here.
20:31Reckon one of them could sew your mouth shut.
20:33Tell you what.
20:34How about instead...
20:35Carl, you fucking legend.
20:37Thank you, thank you, thank you for my brand spanking new fucking computer.
20:42Hey, anything for you, Hardy.
20:43You're welcome.
20:44It's interesting how you got Rose to deliver it.
20:47Well, she's in a funk and you two are thick as thieves.
20:49Well, she's only in a funk because you're a cunt.
20:51Well, I'm sure there's meds for that.
20:53And I'm in the right place.
20:54She just wants to impress you.
20:55Unlikely.
20:56Maybe fake it once in a while.
20:57Well, you were always better at that than me.
20:59I was always better at everything.
21:02Right.
21:03First of all...
21:06This is a comorant.
21:08Okay.
21:09I'll take your word for it.
21:10So what do we make of it?
21:11We think it's a logo.
21:12Oh, no shit, Sherlock.
21:13For whom?
21:14I think it's turned out.
21:15For me neither.
21:17Oh.
21:18What a relief it is to know that you're checking on my work.
21:21More like doing it.
21:23I have a motive as to why someone might have taken her.
21:25Yeah, she and Sam Haig were poking the wrong bit.
21:27Different motive.
21:30Hit me.
21:31It's the universal motive for all crime throughout human history.
21:35Love.
21:36Money.
21:37Go back to your birds.
21:38Because that family were broke.
21:40Jamie Lingard was broke.
21:41Lila Lingard, near Lila Graham, was rich.
21:44Her family had money.
21:45Money that came from where?
21:47Centuries of dead relatives.
21:48This is Britain after all.
21:49Okay.
21:50I gather that you traced the card that she paid for the hotel room with.
21:53You gather correctly.
21:55And?
21:56It's linked to a trust account in the Channel Islands bank on Jersey.
22:00Where sadly the trail, much like the money off the wealthy cunts that live there, vanished.
22:05Okay, well that's your brilliant motive, is that someone took merit in order to somehow steal her money.
22:10Wicked, Watson.
22:11Good morning, James.
22:13Dr. Lee, is it Wednesday already?
22:15No.
22:16But your most recent MRI was so promising, I thought I'd add a session.
22:20Shite.
22:21You like lying in bed all day?
22:22Yeah, he loves it.
22:23All of his favourite things happening there.
22:24Who are you?
22:25And what are you doing here interrupting my session?
22:27Carl, my ex-partner.
22:29Didn't know you were gay.
22:30Police?
22:31You should have said partner in the police then, yes?
22:34These days you have to help people parse these sorts of things.
22:37What's the deal with the rehab, by the way?
22:39I thought the doctor said that he was as far along as he was going to get.
22:42Well, aren't you just a ray of bloody sunshine?
22:45I too am a doctor.
22:46And as I told James last month, his other doctor doesn't know him as well as I do.
22:51And therefore doesn't know that he may, in fact, be able to walk again.
22:56Me.
22:57Depends on how well James continues to heal, which so far has been encouraging.
23:01So far.
23:02And how long has this been going on?
23:03Not that long.
23:04I like to start recessing within days of surgery.
23:07Days?
23:08Oh, okay.
23:09One waits too long and the body forgets itself.
23:12These four months of rehab have been productive for James.
23:15When Dr. Lou says rehab, what she really means is watching me fall over and me cursing her every fucking day.
23:21I don't laugh and you don't curse or you know what happens.
23:24Aye.
23:25Progress.
23:26You can feel that, yeah?
23:27Me better.
23:28You can leave.
23:29Yeah.
23:30Cheetah by Will.
23:31Feel free to beat the shit out of her.
23:32Carl.
23:33Moira wanted to see you.
23:34Mm-hmm.
23:35Did you hear what I just said?
23:36Yeah.
23:37And she saw me.
23:38So, it's very often the most boring, insignificant detail that leads to a solution, the mundane, or a break from the mundane.
24:11And there are small details of a person's life, so we gravitate towards the events right before the crime.
24:16But in this case, we need to look further back.
24:20For fuck's sake, Carl.
24:21And take a look at the...
24:22Wait, Carl.
24:23Save your lecture on criminology.
24:24You're sending me to sleep here.
24:25Get to the fucking point.
24:26Merit's money.
24:27It's called being a mentor.
24:29Aye, you're doing a bang up job.
24:31Okay.
24:34What does everyone think about Hardy's merit-had-money theory?
24:38We know she had the trust fund.
24:40Well, we know she was drawing money from the trust right up until she disappeared, yeah.
24:43But we don't know what happens if Merit dies.
24:45But we can guess it all goes to William.
24:47Lot of fucking guessing going on.
24:49You're not helping.
24:50And could you sit up, for Christ's sake?
24:52You look like a fucking severed head.
24:54Are you still a wee bit upset that I didn't tell you about my rehab?
24:57I wasn't upset.
24:58Looked to me like you were gonna cry again.
25:00Oh, fuck off.
25:01You could have said something.
25:02I had an enema this morning, should I have told you that?
25:04Yeah, because it would have cheered me up.
25:06The troll thinks that you can walk.
25:08She thinks maybe I can move.
25:10There's a wee difference.
25:11Still, it would have been nice to have known.
25:13Ahem.
25:14If William couldn't manage the trust, then who would?
25:18It would have been managed by his legal guardian.
25:23She told you she was his legal guardian?
25:25She did.
25:26Wait, who's she?
25:28In those exact words.
25:29In those exact words.
25:30Wait, where are we going?
25:31Who the fuck is she?
25:32I'll tell you in the car.
25:33Do I win?
25:34Hello?
25:35Alice.
25:36Come on in.
25:37Make yourself comfortable.
25:38It won't be long.
25:39You have cobwebs?
25:40Technically they're not mine.
25:41A spider could drop from the ceiling onto one of your patients.
25:44Potentially.
25:45I've always heard they're good luck, even when they're crawling around in your hair.
25:50No, I don't think that's true.
25:51So, I assume you've seen the paper.
25:52I tried to warn you.
25:53Aren't you supposed to be helping him?
25:54The man has to be here for me to help him.
25:55What do you mean?
25:56He was a no-show yesterday.
25:57Oh, Jesus, God.
25:58Look, I'd love to just rubber stamp him and send him on his merry way, but if something
25:59happens, I'll get blamed for cutting him loose.
26:00He's always good luck, even when they're crawling around in your hair.
26:05Oh, no.
26:06I don't think that's true.
26:08So, I assume you've seen the paper.
26:10I tried to warn you.
26:11Aren't you supposed to be helping him?
26:12The man has to be here for me to help him.
26:13What do you mean?
26:14He was a no-show yesterday.
26:15Oh, Jesus, God.
26:16Look, I'd love to just rubber stamp him and send him on his merry way, but if something
26:17happens, I'll get blamed for cutting him loose.
26:18He's already loose.
26:19That's on you, not me.
26:20It was a goodish idea keeping him locked in the basement, because letting him out in
26:33public with all that anger, I mean, he's already assaulted a journalist.
26:38That was more of a shove.
26:40What happens when he shoves a suspect?
26:42Or a colleague?
26:43What if he turns on himself?
26:46Carol's a lot of things, but he'd never do anything like that.
26:49You sure about that?
26:50Because you're relying on this loophole about cold cases not being active duty, but it's
26:56sort of bitten you in the bum, I bet, hasn't it?
27:01Maybe it's a personality clash.
27:05How do you mean?
27:07Him not coming.
27:08After all, not every therapist is right for every patient.
27:11It's very true.
27:13So it's possible that Carol might respond better to a different therapist?
27:21He might.
27:26I'd suggest you shop around.
27:28See who he clicks with.
27:29I mean, knowing Carl, I'm sure he'd love to go on that journey of discovery with you.
27:33I'm just trying to be pragmatic.
27:35Not my circus, not my monkeys.
27:37As they say.
27:39Tell him I said tatty bye.
27:41Do you see Dr. Wallace?
27:42I know who you are.
27:43Excuse me, you can't go up there.
27:44Let them do their job, please.
27:45Buzz Dr. Wallace.
27:46I don't believe we have an appointment.
27:47No, we don't.
27:48You might want to close the door, Doc.
27:49Are you going to tell me what this intrusion is about?
27:50I don't believe we have an appointment.
27:51I don't believe we have an appointment.
27:52No, we don't.
27:53I might want to close the door, Doc.
27:54Are you going to tell me what this intrusion is about?
27:55Sit down.
27:56Please.
27:57Good job, please. Buzz, Dr. Wallace.
28:08I don't believe we have an appointment.
28:10No, we don't. You might want to close the door, Doc.
28:14Are you going to tell me what this intrusion is about?
28:17Sit down, please.
28:22Why do you allow William Lingard to stay here gratis?
28:26I don't allow him anything.
28:28It's an arrangement whereby he gets a home
28:30and I get to observe his condition in more conducive surroundings.
28:33And by conducive, you mean comfortable?
28:35Certainly. No one flourishes in a warehouse,
28:38which is what most of our institutions are.
28:42William?
28:47You must have collated an awful lot of data
28:50over the four years since he's been here.
28:52Quite a bit, yes.
28:53I hasten to add that William's condition
28:55has improved significantly as well.
28:57Well, last time you said his condition was deteriorating.
29:00I think you may have misheard me.
29:02Samoretz. Nice.
29:12William.
29:13You said you had the power to prevent me talking to William
29:16on the grounds that you were his legal guardian.
29:18That's true, I am.
29:19What does that mean, exactly?
29:21It means, simply put, that I make all the decisions that affect his life.
29:25Well, such as how best to, um, allocate his finances.
29:29I'm not sure I follow you.
29:32And I'm sure you do.
29:34That I'm not sure I like what you're implying.
29:36And what's that, do you think?
29:37That I'm somehow stealing money from one of my patients, which is absurd.
29:43It's a very nice piece.
29:44What's happening in here?
29:45This man is not well.
29:46You need to leave now.
29:48Police, we have to check on him.
29:49I don't care.
29:50Neither of you can be up here without permission.
29:52What is wrong with him?
29:53Fucking hell.
29:55As legal guardian, even one with power of attorney,
29:58I'm only allowed to contact the trustee.
30:00And I have no reason to be, because I provide for every aspect of William's care.
30:04Yeah, except the trustee in this case has been missing for four years.
30:07Which is why the bank appointed a lawyer to act as the trustee.
30:12Yeah, the Bank of Jersey.
30:16Wherever it may be, yes.
30:18Rose, help me.
30:19Absolutely not.
30:20I was not asking you for permission.
30:25Listen, my friend.
30:26It's best you step aside.
30:33Bye.
30:34Let's turn him over.
30:35Okay.
30:36Careful.
30:37Say I search this office.
30:39I mean, what do you think the chances are?
30:42It might be a cheque book and or bank card in William Lingard's name.
30:46Zero chance.
30:48Because you're not going to search this office, not without a warrant.
30:52That's a funny old answer.
30:54Meaning?
30:55Meaning?
30:56You could have just said zero and left it at that.
30:58As someone with power of attorney, I'm entitled to holding those documents.
31:02Yeah, but you told me you paid for William's care in exchange for the vast knowledge that he's giving you.
31:07I'm merely making a point that there are rules.
31:09If I were withdrawing money from William's trust, I would need to account for every expense.
31:14Yeah, such as the annual service under 2024 Mercedes SLC 250D.
31:20Anything like that would trigger an immediate audit.
31:23But go ahead, have your fun.
31:26With no family to complain.
31:28Not much chance of anybody noticing.
31:30There's a large chance of the bank noticing.
31:32There are systems in place that alert them any time anyone goes over the allotted distribution limit.
31:36How many of your patients are only children from old money?
31:40Okay, you can leave now.
31:41You're being worse than impertinent.
31:43You're being scurrilous.
31:44How do you think it's going to sound to a prosecutor when they hear that not long after Merit Lingard disappeared,
31:50you showed up, whisked her brother away, and then started spending his money?
31:54Get out.
31:55And when the fine folk in your world find out...
31:58Oh, fuck me.
32:02You're done.
32:04I'm done?
32:05Mm-hmm.
32:06Do you have any idea who I know in your world?
32:08Uh, no.
32:10And I don't give a shit.
32:12So you can save this righteous indignation for your trial.
32:17Okay?
32:22You've got him drugged.
32:23He's fine.
32:24He's just been sedated.
32:25For what?
32:26For what?
32:27Sometimes if he's agitated we give him a small dose of Thorazine or Haldol.
32:30Sometimes.
32:31Or right before we turn down.
32:33How many of your other patients you got doped up?
32:34They all are.
32:39Where's William?
32:40Get him in the car.
32:42I don't think you have the authority.
32:43Uh, no.
32:45No.
32:46You're in enough trouble.
32:50I don't think you planned it.
32:52I guess it was probably one of those things that just evolved as you looked after William.
32:56One of those things, once you started, once you got a taste for just how easy it was to get that money, you couldn't stop.
33:02And then like most investors, you sleep like a fucking baby at night.
33:07By telling yourself you earned it.
33:09I'd like to speak to my lawyer.
33:21I cannot stress to you how much I don't want to regret this.
33:36Okay?
33:37No.
33:38No.
33:39Didn't pack anything.
33:40She's gonna need a toothbrush and a...
33:42I cannot stress.
33:43I'll have to keep you from now.
33:45I'll have to keep you from now.
33:46I got you.
33:47I want to keep you from now.
33:48I can't get it.
33:49I can't take a break.
33:50I'm sure you've been getting one of those things before you want.
33:52Jasper!
34:04Jasper!
34:12Was that Jasper I just saw?
34:14It was.
34:15Said he needed to pick up a few essentials,
34:17but the only essential I saw him take was a bong.
34:19Why didn't you ask him to wait for me?
34:22Well, because you asked me repeatedly to mind my own fucking business.
34:25Not when you can see there's a hand grenade about to go off.
34:28Well, fear not, the flat did not explode.
34:30I was talking about Jasper.
34:32I got the metaphor.
34:34Bad day at the office.
34:35Fuck off.
34:37Go on, stick your choo-chos back on.
34:39Wait.
34:40I live here too.
34:41As if I need reminding.
34:42I'm allowed to be concerned.
34:43And I'm allowed not to care.
34:45You need to get a grip.
34:46Deal with some stuff.
34:47You can't keep putting things off.
34:48Oh, says the man is in his fucking eighth year of a PhD on Wittgenstein.
34:52It's Kierkegaard.
34:53You arse.
34:54Do you never listen?
34:55Well, maybe you should.
34:56Because one of Soren's big themes is why we get up in the morning.
35:00A specific one.
35:01Just for us.
35:02Our own truth.
35:03Do you want to know mine?
35:04Not remotely.
35:05I love my life.
35:07Got my studies.
35:08Bit of luck.
35:10Friends.
35:11Hobbies.
35:11How about you?
35:12If you've got friends and hobbies, why the fuck are you always here?
35:16I do.
35:17Love one, thanks.
35:21Good throat arsehole.
35:22And for your information, I've been going to a life drawing class.
35:27Even met a lovely woman there.
35:29Portuguese.
35:30Or maybe Brazilian.
35:32We've been flirting.
35:33Well, I've been flirting.
35:34Her English isn't very good still.
35:36Point is, I think you need to find your own truth, Carol.
35:40For everybody's sake, but mainly mine.
35:43Finished?
35:44I think I preferred it when you were quoting Yoko.
35:48Piss off, Carol.
35:49Think about what I said.
35:50Oh, Jesus.
35:54Don't fall asleep on the couch.
35:55You'll only wake up more depressed.
36:11Where are you off to?
36:12The laundry.
36:13Need to get there before it closes.
36:15You can do your laundry in your own fucking town.
36:17There's actual police work to be done.
36:18It's not my laundry, Carl.
36:21It's Merit's.
36:22I'm doing what you told me to do.
36:24I'm looking at the boring and the mundane.
36:25Meaning what, exactly?
36:27You'll think it's stupid.
36:29Oh, I'm sure I will.
36:30But tell me anyway.
36:32Or I'll give you the boot.
36:34And you can resume your prior role as Mary Andrew to the cunts upstairs.
36:38Jesus, Carl.
36:39You can't just say things like that.
36:41What, Mary Andrew?
36:42No, cunt.
36:43You want to use it at the pub?
36:44That's fine.
36:45But you can't just band-aid about at work.
36:46There's rules about that kind of thing.
36:48Well, if it's good enough for Chaucer...
36:49Oh, except this isn't Old England.
36:51And you're not fucking Beowulf.
36:53Beowulf?
36:53Chaucer wrote the Canterbury Tale...
36:55Just tell me, wife of Bath.
36:58I went again through all of Merit's receipts and credit card statements.
37:02But this time I went back for a year and I saw a pattern.
37:06Or a kind of one.
37:08All of the shops that she went to were close to the Crown offices.
37:10Which makes sense when you think about it.
37:12Because there's not much in the way of shops out where she and William were living.
37:15So it made sense that after work she'd do the shopping or whatever errands before she went home.
37:20But stood out to me there was one place that she went to.
37:23A laundry near the Cowgate.
37:24That wasn't really near the Crown offices.
37:26And at first I thought, hmm, that's not so weird.
37:29A woman like Merit would be particular about where she took her clothes because they were so nice.
37:33You know, she'd have her trusted place where they know how to look after nice things.
37:37But this place wasn't that type of place.
37:40And she only went there once as far as I can tell.
37:42Whereas she went lots of times to a posh place near the offices in Murchison.
37:45And the statements show that she'd been going there for years.
37:48So what was she doing at this other place?
37:50Oh, and I forgot to say it was only a week before she disappeared.
37:56Take Akram with you.
38:04Take Akram with you.
38:04Take Akram.
38:05Take Akram.
38:06Take Akram.
38:07Take Akram.
38:08Take Akram.
38:09Take Akram.
38:10Take Akram.
38:11Take Akram.
38:12Take Akram.
38:13Take Akram.
38:14Take Akram.
38:15Take Akram.
38:16Take Akram.
38:17Take Akram.
38:18Take Akram.
38:19Take Akram.
38:20Take Akram.
38:21Take Akram.
38:22Take Akram.
38:23Take Akram.
38:24Take Akram.
38:25Take Akram.
38:26Take Akram.
38:27Take Akram.
38:28Take Akram.
38:29Take Akram.
38:30Take Akram.
38:31Um, I'm DC Dixon.
38:42This is DC Salim.
38:44Are you the proprietor?
38:46Aye.
38:47Are you Shirley Atkins?
38:49What is this about?
38:50I have a receipt from four years ago.
38:54I was wondering if you might be able to tell me something about the customer.
38:57I'll have a look, but I doubt I could help.
38:59And I don't even keep records for that long.
39:03What is this?
39:05You know bloody well I know who this is.
39:07I'm sorry, I...
39:07Do you honestly think I would help you look for this bitch?
39:10After what she did to my Kirsty?
39:14You knew Merit?
39:15I wish I never fucking met her.
39:16She was a customer?
39:17Oh, she was never a customer.
39:18She came here to apologise to me and Keith, but lost her fucking nerve.
39:22Danny, Kirsty's brother, was working that day.
39:25She took one look at him and pretended that her coat needed dry cleaning.
39:29And got the hell out.
39:31You say she left her coat with you.
39:33Have you still got it?
39:34Are you kidding?
39:35I fucking burnt it.
39:36What was she apologising for?
39:38Why don't you go ask my daughter?
39:40Kirsty, you said her name was.
39:42Erm, where can I find her?
39:44Inside Pentland's.
39:46The prison?
39:47The way they put her after Merit Lyngard nearly got her killed in Sockton.
40:09PC Mark Gilbey.
40:10Do you remember him?
40:14Sure, I.
40:14My first partner.
40:17He was on call.
40:19I did surveillance outside a pub.
40:21It looked like nothing until there was a knife.
40:26Then Mark was on the ground in a pool of blood.
40:29He survived, but...
40:32He left the job.
40:33I'm not sure what would I have done different, but I felt guilty all the same.
40:40Still do.
40:44But I've never wished it had been me.
40:46I didn't say that.
40:48Not exactly.
40:50You kind of did.
40:56You all right, Carol?
40:58Seems to be a matter of opinion.
41:00Yeah, well, I had no shortage of them today.
41:03There's a few people around here who worry.
41:05I'm fine.
41:06Not about you.
41:08About their reputations.
41:09It was a...
41:10Janice looking for a story.
41:13I overreacted.
41:14The one you stood down.
41:17I thought that was your shout.
41:18It is.
41:20Which puts me in the fire in line for any further disasters.
41:23You're not actually letting them get to you, eh?
41:27Don't presume, Carol.
41:28We go back, but right now, that's an argument for listening to those opinions rather than ignoring them.
41:35You put me in that fucking basement for a reason.
41:39Yes.
41:39I'd like you to do your thing quietly without bothering me.
41:43Out of sight.
41:44Out of mind.
41:45Why do someone else's dirty work, yeah?
41:47What dirty work exactly is that?
41:51Why did you assign Merrick Lingard's case to Fergus Dunbar, hmm?
41:55I would imagine on the account of him being up next.
41:59Why'd you ask?
42:00You said yourself it was high profile.
42:01Had all the earmarks that your bettors get all tingly about.
42:05That calls for someone good, doesn't it?
42:06Fergus ran a solid investigation.
42:09If it was so solid, why'd you pull him?
42:10Because there were no more leads.
42:12It all went cold and I needed him elsewhere.
42:14Elsewhere?
42:15Hmm.
42:17Out of the building?
42:17That was his choice, not mine.
42:19I liked Fergus.
42:21Just like that.
42:21Everybody forgot about Merrick Lingard.
42:24Not everyone.
42:25So what then?
42:27Phone call?
42:28Middle of the night?
42:29Someone tell you to shut it down?
42:32I'm the first woman ever to do this job.
42:36And that's important to me, yes.
42:38But it's also important for anyone who comes after me.
42:41So what, you're saying that you went along with it so you didn't jeopardise your important fucking position?
42:45That's not what I'm saying at all.
42:47I'm no fucking coward.
42:49I push when I have to push.
42:51And you fucking well know that too.
42:53Need I remind you?
42:55No, you need not.
42:55That I have saved your bacon on more than one occasion.
42:58In here, out there.
43:00You made a mistake back then.
43:01Bad call, fucking whatever.
43:03And now you want me to fix it?
43:04Now I would like you to solve the case without being bounced for being fucking psycho.
43:10Is that possible?
43:12Depends.
43:15Got my back or not?
43:18If you have to ask me that, you've not been listening.
43:23For Christ's sake, stop saying drippy rubbish like it should have been me.
43:27Hi, Kirsty.
43:39I take a seat.
43:41Is this some kind of a stitch-up?
43:44You're here to fuck up my parole?
43:45No.
43:46Because I'm out in six weeks.
43:48You're a model prisoner.
43:49I fucking well am.
43:50Gonna go back to the laundry?
43:51I've had enough laundry, thank you.
43:54Getting as far away as I can.
43:56Start all over.
43:58Disappear.
44:00You're afraid?
44:01Be an idiot otherwise.
44:03Who attacked you at Socton?
44:05Now, seeing as the first thing they did was stab me in the eye, I couldn't say.
44:11Meritlingard disappeared not long after you were attacked.
44:13Aye, because I had her killed.
44:16Payback for nearly getting me killed.
44:18Really?
44:18Hired myself a hitman who followed her onto a ferry and threw her over.
44:23Well, that solves that.
44:25You're welcome.
44:29What?
44:31I've found that there are times when people want to scare someone to be quiet.
44:35And there are times when they skip that part.
44:38And make them quiet.
44:41Okay.
44:42I look at you and your injuries, and I can see that you were not meant to be warned.
44:48You were meant to be killed.
44:50This is not new information to you.
44:51You are quite sensibly afraid.
44:54You know something.
44:56You told Merit about it in hopes of getting an early release, but something happened.
45:00Fucking yes, something happened.
45:03She fucking bailed on me.
45:06What was the information?
45:08There's no way I testify in court.
45:10There's no way I admit to have seen anything, because I won't make that promise ever again.
45:16I don't blame you.
45:23Okay.
45:23I was in a woman's refuge for a while.
45:32Before I got arrested.
45:34I met this woman, she wasn't there long, but I got quite pally.
45:44She said her husband had tried to kill her, and he fucking gave her a beat down.
45:52Left her with black eyes and broken ribs.
45:55He fucking broke her cheekbone.
45:57She was convinced that he'd find her at the refuge, so she left.
46:07And I never saw her again, or even thought of her.
46:14Until her face was all over the news.
46:17What for?
46:17The woman that case lingered, the husband that killed his wife, Finch.
46:25The woman was his wife, Andrea Finch.
46:33Deal was, I'd testify about Andrea at the refuge and get early release.
46:38At the last minute, that bitch changes her mind.
46:47Saying that I couldn't testify on account of someone like me wasn't credible.
46:54Only, there's word out there that I've been talking to her.
46:58So I call her.
46:59And I tell her.
47:05I'm not safe.
47:09I'm getting threats.
47:10Wait, who was it? Who came for you?
47:12These two bitches.
47:14Fucking lifers, the both of them.
47:16They walk in, weaving their shank, saying that I must have pissed off somebody heavy.
47:20Who paid?
47:21I don't fucking know.
47:22They get a 500 quid bounce on their commistry and a name in their laundry bag.
47:26But why go after you for information that no one even knows you have?
47:30There's people in here that know Finch and they know that I've talked to you, so no, you have to help me.
47:35What did Merit do?
47:38Where are you calling from?
47:40My cell.
47:41On a smuggled phone.
47:42What fucking difference does it make? I just told you.
47:45I told you there's nothing I can do.
47:47You fucking bitch.
47:50Are you high?
47:52I'm fucking terrified.
47:53Are you high?
47:59What do you expect me to do?
48:01Oh, Jesus Christ.
48:03She hung up.
48:04She hung up.
48:23What was I supposed to do?
48:34You left me hanging.
48:35You let me use Kirsty's evidence.
48:37She was not going to help you.
48:39She would have made it worse, in fact.
48:41Kirsty Atkins has been stabbed.
48:44Oh, God.
48:46Uh...
48:47How bad is it?
48:49I don't know.
48:51She's, um...
48:53Alive, but she's in a coma.
48:56Look, Kirsty's life has been the result of a multitude of shitty choices.
49:00None of them having anything to do with you.
49:05Well, tell that to her family.
49:07I'm sure they'll find that very comforting.
49:10Before I stuck out her eye, the other punctured her lung along with another.
49:14I missed her heart by just a few millimeters.
49:16Three wounds only.
49:17Two out of the three hit their mark, while one of them was right close.
49:20If it hadn't happened in prison, I'd say they're a professional, did it?
49:24Where do you think all the professionals are?
49:48Sam Hague speaking.
49:49Oh!
49:50Oh, I see.
49:52Hello?
49:55Okay.
49:57That it?
49:58I'll talk to you.
50:00Can you tell me when and when?
50:01Fine.
50:02I'll do it.
50:02I'll do it.
50:03Okay.
50:06I'll do it.
50:11Okay.
50:12I'll do it.
50:14I'll do it.
50:17Okay.
50:19Let's go.
