Hi.

Anything you want to tell me?

Think about it.

There's two men in this house.

I don't even know your name.

It's Molly, Lena.

Cathy, tell me where you are

and what you're doing.

I mean, I'm actually starting to

feel sorry for him now.

It's like you're hoping he's still

out there k*lling people.

Who's that?

Hey!

Is that her?

The woman from my home?

I don't know who this woman is.

You m*rder*d someone.

I gave you a second chance.

Oh!

I'm not having an affair.

I'm not a f*cking m*rder*r.

WOMAN SIGHS

We should just mooch off.

You can just mooch off.

I've got mocks.

But it's just you sitting

around reading about football

while they do the work.

HE CHUCKLES

Maybe just one more kiss.

No, no chance.

You have to brush your teeth first.

Oh, really?

THEY GIGGLE

HE YAWNS

You want to tell me where you were

last night?

I don't know, the usual.

You're in some state.

Well, I'm sorry, it happens.

What about what happened to

your hand?

I don't know, it's fine.

Mum, did you see my phone?

I can't find my phone. Maybe if you

tidied your room every once in a

It's not in my room.

Just watching television.

CATHY SOBS

Mrs McDaid.

I understand you were with

Mrs Bowman last night.

Hi.

It's just horrifying. You got

a taxi home with Mrs Bowman? Sally.

Yeah, a taxi.

I got dropped off first.

And what about before the taxi?

Was it a bar, or a club or

a restaurant?

All three.

It's a girls' night out,

Anything untoward or

There are always arses trying it on,

but nothing serious.

PEOPLE LAUGHING

Whoa, whoa, I will f*cking hurt

you. f*ck away off. She's married.

She told one guy to f*ck off,

If you'd give me the name

of the bar where this happened

they might know him or have CCTV,

if only to rule him out.

Murphy's. Corner of erm

Er, yes, I know it.

Anything else you can think of?

Anyone who might have reason to

hurt Sally? Sorry.

Actually, there is something.

There's this fella. We found out

he'd k*lled someone a long time ago.

We went to his house.

To his house?

When? We were just curious.

We listen to a lot of

true crime podcasts.

We were worried, you know, m*rder*r

living in your neighbourhood.

What if How long ago are we

talking about?

A few days.

No, since this man m*rder*d someone.

Erm

..he was released 17 years ago.

And he hasn't committed any crime

since or given you a reason to

That we're aware of.

Have you interacted with this

Michael McAllister, that

is his name. Michael McAllister.

No, not intentionally, but I think

he might have seen Sally

and somehow, I don't know,

I know it might sound ridiculous

Did Sally have any

kind of a pre-existing relationship

with this Michael McAllister?

No, of course not.

And you?

Me?! No.

W-we were just concerned.

Do you think it might

It seems unlikely.

But I'll look into it.

On the whole,

please leave thesleuthing to us.

And perhaps if Mrs Bowman comes

around When

..when she comes around.

..she'll be able to tell us

exactly who's responsible.

SHE BREATHES DEEPLY

Here.

They want me to give a statement.

They're all over the house.

They think I did it. You?

Most of these things turn out to be

domestic something.

Lots of people will be thinking,

anyway. They always do.

No, they won't.

As soon as she's awake,

she'll tell them who it was.

Or that it wasn't you.

HE SOBS

I can't do this.

SCHOOL BELL RINGS

I've spoken to the Principal.

Three days' suspension.

It could have been a lot worse.

At least you'll be

back in time for your exams proper.

So, you know how it was a mock exam.

Could I maybe get a mock suspension

and still go to the school disco

tomorrow night?

Nice try.

And no.

Now, the question is, who am I

breaking the bad news to?

Your mum or your dad?

So, tell all.

Your man?

Oh, yeah, we had a good talk

..a frank exchange of views.

And now he's buried under

the patio.

You're awful! Hmm.

But at least you're talking.

Yeah, well, we'll see.

What about yous?

Er, well, I thought we were getting

there and-and

..then he

..er

..rolled in last night after

midnight

..drunk as a skunk. He could barely

stand. He

What happened to him?

Well, he doesn't remember.

He was in such a state, I

..I felt sorry for him.

PHONE RINGS

Sorry.

Er, hello.

ON PHONE: This is Mr McDaid.

Andrew's been caught cheating.

He did what?

Yeah, in his mocks, I'm afraid.

Er He's been suspended for three

days. Sure.

I'll come get him and

I can drop Andrew home now.

No, there's no need for that,

Mr McDaid.

Oh, it's no trouble.

I've got a free period.

Right, that-that's very kind of you.

See you soon.

Everything all right?

My boy's been up to no good.

His teacher's dropping him home.

He's probably going to read me

the riot act as well. I'd better go.

I'm sure it'll be fine.

And just be careful out there.

Careful? A woman was attacked

last night. You know,

up around Silver Lodge Gardens.

That's terrible. Yeah.

What's the world coming to?

Hey.

I hope you know what you're doing.

He was out on the town last night.

When he got back, he was covered

in blood.

He attacked Sally. I know it.

And how would you know this,

Mrs McDaid?

It doesn't matter how I know it.

You need to arrest him now, before

he attacks somebody else.

CALL ENDS

SHE BREATHES HEAVILY

f*ck! Got you!

f*cking got you!

All right, boss.

Still working on those schedules.

Unless, er, of course, you're not

here to talk about the schedules?

Aye, aye.

My daughter called me this morning.

She said that you were enjoying

yourself last night.

That's very kind of her to keep

you updated.

That when you got home, you

were inebriated.

That you were driving drunk.

A place like this, reputation

is everything.

Someone steps out of line,

half an hour later, everyone knows.

Do you know who that reflects on?

Youprobably.

Where did you go last night,

Michael?

I-I'll tell you where you went.

On the town.

You were seen staggering around.

Do you know who else was on the town

last night, Michael?

No. Sally Bowman.

Were you out with her or did you

just follow her home?

Because she was attacked outside

her house.

She's in hospital.

Show me your hands.

Don't-don't touch me.

Oh, you're a big man now, are you?

Weren't so big

when I found you in prison,

frightened of your own shadow.

That was a long time ago.

She hasn't woken up.

She might never wake up.

Maybe you'd like that.

Well, here's the thing, Michael.

Someone has reported you.

Someone is pointing

the finger at you.

Me?

Lena has told me

that you have blackouts,

that you can never remember

what you've done.

Michael

..pray with me, son, eh?

Father, thank you,

that our sins may be forgiven

through Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Thank you for your promise that our

sins may be put behind your back.

Can you just f*cking stop?

If this womanif this woman has

wronged you,

you have no place to take revenge.

You must leave room for God's

wrath I'm going out.

..for it is written, it is mine to

avenge, I will repay.

OK, look, look, go home, yes, go

home over the border, like you

always do.

Run away. But listen to me.

You have a choice.

We can protect you

or we can be the instruments of the

Lord's vengeance.

And, MichaelMichael,

listen to me!

HE SIGHS

I'm sorry.

For what?

For getting drunk.

And

And Sally Bowman?

HE SIGHS

Oh, that man is poisonous.

Daddy said that you

prayed for forgiveness.

He prayed for forgiveness!

I prayed for a f*cking break.

You had blood on your hands,

Michael!

Lena, Lena, I told you, I fell!

Yes, but you don't remember, do you?

I didn't attack her!

Shh

What are you shouting about? What

What are you doing home?

Will somebody talk to me.

What's he doing home?

He's suspended from school.

He was cheating in his mock.

Jesus Christ. Andrew? Andrew!

I've already gone through it.

Well, he didn't look gone through,

I'll bloody go through him.

Michael! S Look, there's

something else.

HE SIGHS

What?

SHE SCOFFS

What?!

I found his phone.

Outside Sally Bowman's house.

CATHY: Gary. How's she doing?

She's awake anyway.

My God.

That's brilliant!

Can I come and see her?

Cathy, she's not in a good place

right now

andto be honest,

she thinks what happened

..might have something to do with

you.

With me? She's told me all about it,

Cathy.

That man

McAllister? She's scared.

Did she see him?

Was it him?

It was him, wasn't it?

She doesn't remember anything!

All she knows is that YOU started

something

by pursuing this man and now this

happened!

I know you've got history with him,

but it has nothing to do with us!

We shouldn't be involved.

Do you think it's my fault?

You know that's not for me to say,

Cathy.

It's whether you think it's your

fault that's important.

Do you think it's your fault?

I think she shouldn't have told

Gary.

And what does Raymie think?

"Well, if you hadn't stalked him in

the first place"

Were you stalking him?

I was just keeping an eye on him.

Well, what is it they say?

"It's all fun and games

until someone loses an eye."

They also say, "In the kingdom of

the blind,

"the one-eyed man is king."

Is that how you feel, Cathy?

That you're the only one who can see

what's going on?

What about your meds, Cathy?

The one-eyed man.

SHE SCOFFS

Come on, pick up!

Mrs McDaid?

What can I do for you?

Uh, yeah, I was just wondering if

there was an update?

Have you spoke to him, or

Mrs McDaid, that gentleman has been

eliminated from our inquiries.

What?!

S No. That's It's not

possible.

I Now, while we appreciate your

concern,

this is an ongoing investigation.

If there are any updates to be

given,

they will be communicated to

those directly involved.

Have a good day.

affair

I wasn't having a f*cking

OK, OK, fine, all right.

Just see what he has to say.

The womanis called Sally Bowman.

Do you know who that is?

Right, well, your search history

tells me that you do.

Andrew.

We're your parents. If you have done

anything, we'll support you.

What are you talking about?

Sally Bowman was attacked last

night.

She's in the hospital.

And what's that got to do with me?

Honey

house.

That's either a very big

coincidence, or

..you had some reason to be there.

Andrew, did you do something?

Oh, love, you can just tell us why

you were there, love.

I was just curious!

It was on my way home.

So I thought I'd take a look.
