[bunniefuu]

The fight spilled out of the
bar. You were scared. You ran.

We've got three
missing minutes here,

when there must have been
a second fight, right,

when someone else
k*lled Kristian?

Look, we should have an
appeal hearing in four months.

I just want to go home.

Hello? Oh, sorry.

You're Jo? Sonny's
mum? I'm Kayla.

Keep running, ya f*cking rat!

KNIFE SLICES Agh!

RAPID BREATHING

You're gonna be a granny.

Or a Nana, if you prefer.

Please, just hear me out.
You've got ten seconds.

Uh, we-we-we were
together, me and Sonny -

um, just a fling, really,
but we connected, you know.

Uh, we talked about keeping in
touch while he went travelling,

and it wasn't until
after he was gone

that I found out I was pregnant
because I couldn't stop puking,

and not in a "I've had ten vodka
and Red Bulls" kind of way -

in a "I can't even keep
toast down" kind of way.

And then I was going to
tell Sonny but, apparently,

he's m*rder*d
someone, and now...

...here we are.

That's more than ten seconds.

And how do I know it's his?

What? Do you think you're
the first person to try

and scam me since
Sonny was arrested?

No offence, but when
we were together,

Sonny was a skint stoner,

and that was before he was
sentenced to 15 years for m*rder.

Why would I lie about him
being the father of my baby?

He's not exactly a catch, is he?

Yeah, well,

women, they propose to prisoners
all the time, don't they?

Look, if I wanted
to scam someone,

I'd be around Jack
Grealish's mum's first.

Don't you think I wish
it was someone else?

But Sonny has a right to know,

and I'm not gonna love
this baby any less

just cos his dad's in prison.

It's a boy?

Yeah.

OK. I, uh... I'm tired.

I need a drink, I need a
shower, I need 12 hours' sleep.

Can we talk tomorrow?

Yeah, yeah.

Have you got someplace
to go? Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

Congratulations.

I'll change the sheets.

Have you thought of a name?

Tiger.

OK.

Got ya.

I'll know when I see him.

A pair of inmates
bribed the guards.

Sonny is the safest
man in Sofia.

They had their chance
and they blew it.

I also did what you said.

Anyone goes near Sonny,
there's a price on their head.

You deserve a couple of weeks
to get your head straight.

I've arranged that.

What, with your bosses?

Yeah.

Mmm.

Then it's Istanbul.

Same deal.

He k*lled someone, and
now the body's gone.

That means he's had help.

Don't follow him, OK?

Promise me.

Hello, gorgeous!

Is this for real?

OK.

You look amazing.

Well, your mum thought I
was trying to scam her.

I'm gonna give you a minute.

I didn't see this coming.

You're so young.

Yeah, so were you.

You, erm...

...grow up fast in here.

I'm... I'm not
gonna be like Dad.

I'm going to do this right.
I know. I know you will.

I just don't want you to
get your hopes up, darling.

What?

The lawyer didn't tell you?

He's found a witness.

Petar Rakov. A teacher. I've
translated his statement.

We were right. There was another
fight after the clash at the bar.

OK.

And... so did he see
who hit Kristian, then?

No, not for sure. But he is
certain it was not Sonny.

So why didn't he
come forward before?

He was afraid.

What's changed?

He heard about
Sonny being stabbed.

He has a family.
He's a good man.

It's progress. Mm.

Yeah, but is it enough
to swing the appeal?

I don't know.

Someone from that stag
party hit Kristian.

Their statements are all identical.
The time they left the bar,

when did they get
to the hostel...

They were drunk.
It was all chaos.

But they all know the exact
time everything happened.

Yeah. Bullshit.

f*cking bullshit.

I'm going to talk to them.

I didn't hear you say that. Mm.

But...

...we only need one
of them to crack.

What did he say?

It wasn't Sonny. Duh.

Mm.

MAN: So why am I getting trained by
a guy who could have a heart attack?

I want to talk to
you... um, about Sofia.

About what happened.

Well, I gave my
statement. We all did.

Mm-hm.

They're your boys?

Yeah. Oh.

Me, I had kids young. Me too.

Yeah, course.

And is it your weekend
with them, then?

Uh, no. Their mum's
not around any more.

Oh, God. Sorry.

No, she's around. She...

She just left. Right. Yeah.

Well, you're...
you're a good dad.

You did the right thing.

My boy's, um...

My boy's innocent.

But you know that, don't you?

Please tell me what happened.

Listen...

...what happened... Um...

What happened was...

...your chavvy scrote of a son

landed a careless punch,

and he was soft enough to
wait around for the Old Bill.

That sh*t happens to boys
who grow up without a dad.

Now get the f*ck out.

So there's no more
on your ghost.

But the other photos
piqued my interest.

Molly Sawyers, secretary.

Her brother's inside for
a drink-driving accident.

Jasmine Wallace, 22.

Her brother's inside
for manslaughter.

Bar fight that went wrong.

Same story for Nikki Gibbs.

Anja Szmodics. Sonya Nani.

They all meet with your ghost.

They all have
relatives in prison.

OK.

Look, I'm working on
a double m*rder...

...but I can take five minutes.

Is there something
you want to tell me?

How long was I out?

Erm, a little while.

You've been drifting in

But you seem better now.

How did you find me? Um,
this guy saw you collapse.

He looked through your phone,

and I was the last
number that you dialled.

Take it easy. Whoa,
take your time.

Thank you for everything.

You got lucky.

Bad sh*t happens around
here, especially at night.

You got to be more careful.

Think about your family.

They're all that matter.

He's blackmailing other people.

Mm.

He's got a network - civilians
and family doing time.

And what about the
prison? Yeah, yeah.

He visits someone
called Aoife Ward.

She's doing ten years
for drug smuggling.

So, another mule.

It's smart. Not foolproof.

OK, so...

...look, he's who I think
he might be working for.

Are you still
following him? Yeah.

Can you find out
who he is for me?

Jo, Cormac's a k*ller.

What if he sees you?
It's too dangerous.

Yeah...

...but what choice do I have?

Well, how long till the appeal?

It's three weeks.

All right.

That's your only hope.

Till then, just do
exactly what he tells you

and don't get caught.

Right.

Oh, and there's something else.

Just...

I had a panic attack.

Yeah.

Dom.

And Mel's getting suspicious.

Ah. If she found out...

I just, um...

I don't think we should

You need to stay the

Do you understand me?

Why didn't you tell
him that you saw me?

Would he have...?

Would he have k*lled me?

He might have k*lled me.

You're too good for business.

This is your last run
before the appeal,

so you're gonna be nervous.
Well, I'm always nervous.

More nervous than usual. So
just follow your routines.

You'll be grand.

I'll be thinking of
you - at the appeal.

If you win, get out fast,

because the Georgievs
will try and get to Sonny.

Good luck.

I mean that.

Don't look too shocked.

You ever heard of Spotify?

Oh, you're so funny.

Yeah, tapes, CDs, streaming -

there's always something new
and it never sounds as good.

That was my mum's collection.

Sonny told me about her.

Yeah, they were really close.

She looked after him
when I went to work.

It's gonna be hard, isn't it...

...if I've got to
do this by myself?

Yeah.

My parents wanted
me to... You know.

First, I kept it just
to wind them up a bit.

Then I thought I
had a miscarriage.

When I found out I was
still pregnant, I was happy,

so... I knew I was
doing the right thing.

And I can do this.

Yes, you can.

And you won't be
on your own, Kayla.

Mm. Cos Sonny's getting out.

Yeah...

Sonny is innocent.

I always knew it.

How do you know?

First, cos he's soft as grease,

and second, cos you raised him.

Sonny can still be a dad
