02x02 - Episode 2

[bunniefuu]

This is Mariam Faraki and
she wants to report a m*rder.

We don't have any proof
Hassan was on the ship.

Hometown? I don't think so.

We're up. Body's been found on the
wasteland at John's Street. Mr...

Lucas Galloway. We both know
that you're still in the business

where a hostile takeover
can come with a body count.

We're acting on information
that a violent incident

may have taken place
on board your ship.

- Elsa is our manifest director.
- Does she know there's a lifeboat missing?

I saw her, she was pregnant.

Let me get the ball rolling with
the NRPS, I've got a contact there.

Police are here and
they're asking questions.

It's not just any
cop, it's my brother.

JAUNTY MUSIC PLAYS

Peace offering.

Just like my mother
used to make.

And who you think
teach her fi make it?

Some of the best cooks in all of
Jamaica run in your bloodline, son.

Mm!

Look. Me never come all
this way fi us to argue.

I only want what's best for you.

PHONE BUZZES

Lindo.

All right. I'll be there
as soon as possible.

There's been a breakthrough with
the case. We can chat later, yeah?

Mm-hm.

Ah, well. Here's it.

How long's it been here?

Some kids called it in to
the coastguard last night.

You find anything else?

Coastguard said they had a look
around but it was only the lifeboat.

Expecting someone to be in it, like?
- One of the ships docked here

may have pushed a
stowaway overboard.

Can happen sometimes,

usually to avoid costing the
shipping company thousands.

If a stowaway is declared,

they're looking at the
ship being impounded,

fines, licences being revoked.

Lindo.

- So this is one of our main units.
- Quite a small one, isn't it?

- What did you say you were after?
- We're checking Ketamine imports,

specifically weight
irregularities.

The weights of everything are
checked as they're unloaded.

Any chance it could
be tampered with here?

We need to check
every possibility.

Three staff sign
each consignment in.

Contents and weights need
to match purchase orders,

otherwise they're reported.

And have any Ketamine
weights been off?

Not since I've worked here.

Come on, I'll show
you the code system.

- Right, so tell me, what did you find?
- Well, earlier this morning

we received a call from the
coastguard. Some schoolchildren

had found a lifeboat that
had washed up on the beach.

Anyway, when we arrived,

it turned out the lifeboat
contained the Stolthet logo.

It's still not
evidence of a crime.

But it corroborates
with Mariam's story.

No, all it tells us is that a
lifeboat went AWOL from the ship.

A lifeboat that had clothing
fibres wrapped in the handles.

It's unlikely to contain
any traces of DNA now

but we've sent it off to
the lab for testing anyway.

Until we know what
happened to Hassan,

we have fi treat this
as a possible m*rder.

But we don't even have any evidence,
you know? And upstairs they want

answers on the Galloway case.

We know that the lifeboat
came from the Stolthet

and the captain
was lying about it.

But we don't know
anything even happened.

I mean, we don't even know
if the husband even exists.

Look, the facts are is that Mariam
lied to us about who she is, OK?

She's got a fake passport,
and she's an asylum seeker

so she's willing to
say anything, really.

And I'm not saying that I
don't understand her reasons,

if that is the case, OK?

But we have a serious m*rder
investigation on our hands

and we just... We don't
have the resources,

we cannae police all of the North Sea as well.
- So we just give up?

I know something happened on the ship, boss!
- And what?

You're going to go rogue and
sneak on again if I don't let you?

HE SIGHS

Oh, your partner here, he decided
to do some unofficial investigating.

Oh, did he not tell
you he got nabbed?

No. No, he didn't.

Don't we have enough to
bring the captain in now?

What's your take
on all this, Bart?

Um...

Well, the clothing fibres certainly
suggest that Hassan was real,

but that it only ended one way.

Maybe Mariam did lie but the father
of her child is probably dead.

We have a duty to find
out what happened. Boss,

the crew did not
want me on that ship.

If we let them set
sail for Norway

we could be letting
a m*rder*r go free!

Fine. Bring in the captain

and let's see if we can find
out what went down. I'll see

what I can do about impounding
the Stolthet for a search. I mean,

if I'm going to get my
backside handed to me

we may as well go all-out.

Who wants to start, then?

- There was a stowaway on the ship.
- And you lot let them go?

Captain Neilsen put him in a
lifeboat before we could stop him.

Aye. So, we're blaming
Neilsen who, as I've heard,

is in a complete state?
- He's just upset about what happened.

The police picked him up.

They've been sniffing around
the ship since yesterday.

- Probably running his mouth off as we speak.
- He's not stupid. - No.

Just stupid enough not to
notice a stowaway on his boat?!

And I'm guessing this stowaway
made it to the shore then, eh?

- I doubt it, the sea was rough.
- Then who told the police? Hmm?

You were talking to Neilsen
all night at the bar.

Did he say he was thinking
of going to the police?

- He wouldn't do that.
- How can you be sure? He was a mess.

You need to find him. ASAP.

Make sure he keeps
his mouth shut.

What are you not telling us?

We're all part of this, we
need to get control of it.

If you know something, tell us.

Well, Neilsen told me that, erm

the man wasn't alone.
There was a woman, too.

He found her.

But he let her go.

She could identify you all.

There were no
stowaways on my ship.

You lie about the lifeboat.

You tell us all
was accounted for

but one washed up on
the shore this morning.

No, I didn't. I mean, they were
all there when we left Stavanger,

I don't know how that happened.

It was empty, Captain.

We think you did find a stowaway
but because it could've cost you

your job, you put him on the
lifeboat and cast him out to sea.

No. That didn't happen.

So we did some digging
on you, Captain.

On the companies you
previously worked for.

And in 2014 on a voyage
between Norway and Holland

you declared a stowaway.
- So what happened this time?

Him fight back a bit too hard?
Your crew teach him a lesson?

Yes, I did declare a stowaway.

Which proves I would never
put someone overboard, right?

Unless there was
a good reason to.

Him try steal something
from the cargo?

For the purpose of the recording,
Captain Neilsen is shaking his head.

- What were you carrying?
- Er, hardware, food, minerals.

Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm.

We have a witness. A stowaway
who was also on your ship,

with a man who then
just... disappeared.

Your witness is lying.

Is she also lying about you telling
her to be quiet when you found her?

What's wrong, Captain?

You couldn't bring yourself to put
a pregnant woman overboard as well?

Are we done here?

The NRPS have got multiple
procedures in place,

including weight checks,
code-locked containers, the lot.

Yeah, no reports of any
Ketamine discrepancies at all.

- Any thoughts on next steps?
- We could do some digging into Galloway

and the McFadden Family
Group, the property business,

see if it's as legit
as Grace makes out.

Good call, Mallick.

All right, get crackin'.

KNOCK ON DOOR

Hey, Katie. - Hiya.
- Mind if we come in? - Yeah, come on.

Have you found Hassan?

A lifeboat washed up from the
ship we were on this morning

and it contains some clothing fibres.
- But no sign of Hassan.

That doesn't mean he's
dead, though. He...

He could have been picked
up by another boat.

- It's not impossible but...
- You haven't found his body

so there's still a chance.
You need to keep looking.

You told us when we first met
that Hassan had been m*rder*d.

He was fighting with
the people on the boat,

I heard their voices but I don't
know what they were saying.

It was in another language.
- But what makes you think it was m*rder?

Isn't putting someone out at
sea without a chance m*rder?

The lifeboat means we were able
to identify the ship you were on.

You recognise this man?

I'm not sure, it was so dark.

He might have been the one
that told you to keep quiet.

PHONE BUZZES

DS Bartlett. Yeah.

MacMillan wants
us at the harbour.

If you need anything, just call.

Any reason you hardly say
a word to me all morning?

Seeing as you like
investigating on your own,

I'll leave you to figure it out.
- I knew you wouldn't let it go.

I am doing everything
I can to get to DI.

You're doing everything you can to stop me!
- That's ridiculous.

I was trying to find a lead.

On your lonesome, breaking
every code possible?

- And what about you and Mariam?
- What about it?

Oh, give me a break, Bart.

We basically tell her
Hassan is as good as dead

and you were never sensitive
with the information.

- I was doing my job.
- OK.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about
sneaking on the ship.

Me never tell you because
if you were involved

it could affect your promotion.
- No. You never told me cos you knew

I would have stopped you.

Er... and that as well.

We're backed up to the hilt
as it is and I don't think

you fully appreciate how
busy this harbour gets!

OK, well, it's just a search.
We'll try and not take too long.

Press'll have a field day

when they hear we've impounded
a ship for nae good reason.

We're investigating
a missing person

so I would say that is
a good enough reason.

The Stolthet will remain under our
custody until you hear otherwise.

And I'll have a bay
full of hybrid ships

waiting to get their
batteries recharged.

Are your officers going to
take custody of that as well?

Aye, I thought as much.

Mariam couldn't ID the captain.

Right. Well, let's hope we can
find something on here, then.

Right.

What've you got?
- So we find the hiding place Mariam described,

now SOCOs are out
searching for evidence

but we no think we not gon' find nothing.
- Why not?

There was a strong
smell of bleach

all throughout that
area of the lower deck.

- So we've got nothing?
- Well, the ship Mariam travelled on

transports a variety of goods
including pharmaceutical containers,

and according to the manifest

one of them happens to be
a bucket-load of Ketamine.

Oh!

Ordered by the North
Regions Procurement Service

for NHS Aberdeenshire.

We think this is connected
to the Galloway case, boss.

Whoa, OK, wait a minute. It's
one hell of a coincidence,

but if that shipment
was headed for the NRPS,

there was no Ketamine missing.

Yeah, we've had the bill of
lading and the purchase orders

for the last two years,
weights always match.

Well, maybe somebody's replacing
the Ketamine with something else,

you know, just to make sure of that.
- Mmm. Unlikely.

The products are checked by three
people at the NRPS warehouse

when they arrive and then at the
relevant NHS drop-off points.

Maybe it was tampered
with on the ship?

But every container has
its own secure keypad

and the codes are only shared
between the pharma company

in Norway and the NRPS here.

The codes would change
with every shipment.

No, no, no. Right, let's
not give up just yet.

Right, Monty,
Mallick, I want you

to look into the export side
of things in Norway, OK?

See if their checks are
as rigorous as ours.

See if there's any other boats that
are bringing in Ketamine as well.

Yes, boss.

Bart. Lindo. Let's bring
the captain back in.

Got some more questions
about his precious cargo.

How we doing, Pierce?

Oh, forget that for now.

Mike's just going
to fix the tap.

No, what we would like you to do

is tell us who
supplies you with CK.

Is this some kind of
a test or something?

- Start with the pinkie.
- No, no, no, no! Wait, wait, wait, wait!

I don't get it! I don't...

No, no, stop. Please,
please, stop, please.

You've got one chance

and one chance only
to give me a name.

Argh, I don't understand,
I don't understand!

I get it from you.
I get it from you.

I get it from you.

Neilsen?!

Captain Neilsen?
It's the police.

Bart, I can hear water.

Go.

- Captain Neilsen?!
- Neilsen?

Neilsen?

Whoa.

Call it in.

Thanks.

Anything?
- Hmm, he left a note.

Think it's legit?

- You saw his face when we told him Hassan wasn't on the lifeboat.
- Mm.

Also... I found this.

It belongs to Mariam.

Well.

At least we know he's not going
to open his mouth to anyone else.

- You wanted him dead.
- He's saved us a job, then, hasn't he?

- Saved us a job?!
- Can you calm down, OK?

Nobody's getting arrested,

we've got the drugs,

and your ship, it can
go back to Norway.

What about the girl?

We don't know if she saw us
going into the container,

or if she saw what
we did to the man.

If she's an eyewitness we
could all go to prison.

- Then you need to track her down.
- How?

We don't know her name
or anything about her.

And what if she did see
what we did? What then?

She's a pregnant woman!

Who could potentially put you
all away for a very long time.

Are you willing to
take that chance?

If the police do have her, we
got no chance of finding her.

Aye, we do.

- Hey.
- All right?

What did the pharma company say
about their export quantities?

They're still pulling up the
files. 20 minutes on hold so far.

MUSIC PLAYS FAINTLY

- This music, man.
- Well, it looks like the Stolthet

is the only boat that's bringing
Ketamine legally into Scotland,

so maybe there's another
boat smuggling it in,

in which case we are looking
for a needle in a haystack.

Oh. Good.

But I did potentially bring
something up on Galloway, though.

I reckon he was laundering the CK
cash through Grace's properties.

An audit from last year threw up
some unexpected rapid repayments

on Newton Village in
Dyce and Ashton Grange.

- Newton Village?
- You know, the property...

Hiya! No, no. No,
I'm still here.

Do you have the bill of
lading at your end as well?

Perfect. Would you email
that to me, please?

Thank you. Oh, and
could you give me

the Ketamine weight for
the shipment in September?

Sorry, could you say that again?

What about the one in June?

That's not the same as...

Sorry, um...

Whose name is on
the purchase orders?

Well, at least this proves
that Mariam was on the boat.

And the captain's note proves
something happened to Hassan.

Yeah, but there's no
direct link to him so...

Means it's circumstantial.

You should have seen Captain
Neilsen when we tell him

the lifeboat washed up
and Hassan never make it.

Maybe he felt some guilt about
fuelling this Ketamine operation.

I mean, the dangers of CK have
been all over the news recently.

A talented art student died
from it just last week.

What, so you two still believe that
this is linked to the Galloway case?



Well, Monty and Mallick,
they're not convinced. I mean,

they cannae see any sign of Ketamine
going missing from the Stolthet.

Me not know how the captain do
it yet but it gives us motive

as to why him put
Hassan overboard.

Are we sure it was suicide?

There's no sign of any forced
entry or defensive wounds.

Yeah, but if Neilsen
was part of the CK ring,

could have been his accomplices.

I mean, maybe they found out
that he was talking to us?

- Yeah. Possibly.
- OK. Look, it must've been pretty grim

for you two finding him like that
today, so why don't we take a break

and we'll start
back fresh tomorrow?

We need to find evidence that
links Captain Neilsen to Galloway.

Oh, and, Davis?

I want to see that case tab on
your desk when I leave tonight, OK?

Go and spend some time with your dad.
- Hmmm,

him been gettin'
'pon my nerves, boss.

- Have you not been showing him the sights of Aberdeen?
- Nah.

Maybe Bart can
help you with that.

Actually, I can think of
something even better.

W-What are you looking for?

- The lease.
- For this place? It should be in there somewhere.

Why do you need it?

Is something wrong?
- No. No, nothing's wrong, I just

need to check that it covers
things getting fixed and that.

Nothing's broken, Jaiy.

The light on the landing,
it's been out for ages.

Nazir reported that.
Look, don't worry.

I can manage.

How, um...

How did he find
this place again?

- He heard about it through a friend.
- Which friend? - I don't know. Why?

Just curious. I never asked
him at the time, so...

Jaiy. What is going on?

Nothing. I'll be through in a
minute. I'll stick the kettle on.

Always lock your car.

What you doin', Duncan?!

Need a favour.

- What kind of favour?
- There was a stowaway on the boat.

The police have her.

We need to know where she is.
- I can't help you with that.

But you're related
to someone who can.

Whoa! I mean, come in. Come in!

I'll take that as a compliment.

My goodness, somebody
is dressed to k*ll.

Ah, as will you be, in a moment.

So this is why you
need our measurements.

Where we a go?
- I have got us three tickets

to the hottest hooley in town.
- Hooley?

Oh, not a chance.

- Is this a joke?
- If you want to experience Scottish culture

then a ceilidh is the
best place to do it.



Who said I wanted to
experience Scottish culture?

It's just a big party with
some very organised dancing

that you'll be forced
to take part in.

- What the hell is this?
- That's for storing your superpower.

Excuse me, young lady?

Whisky, dafties.

Ah...

Why are the socks so thick?
- Because it's Scotland

and if you hadn't
already noticed by now

it's bloody freezing
most of the time.

So why are you making
me wear a skirt?

- It come wit a weapon?
- Oh! That's a sgian-dubh.

And it's just for show.

Right! Come on, then. Chop chop!

Hey. Mum OK?
- Yeah, she's having a lie-down.

Did you report that
landing light that's out?

Yeah, last week or something.
I'll get on at them again.

That's OK, I can do it.

Who's the lease with? Mum
said it was a friend of yours.

- More a friend of a friend.
- What friend?

What's the property
company called?

Cops... Copse Bay...

Whoa! - Why are you lying to me, Naz?
- What? I'm not lying.

Then why does it
say on Mum's lease

that this place belongs to
the McFadden Family Group?!

You're doctoring purchase
orders through the NRPS.

Stealing Ketamine from a
Norwegian boat for scum

to produce the most harmful drug

that's ever been on the
streets of Aberdeen! Eh?!

What's the matter, Naz, eh?

You afraid Mum will hear who you really are?!
- I can explain, Jaiy.

- Yeah, well, you better start now.
- I met...

I met Duncan McFadden at
hospitality for a home game.

- Duncan? He's nobody in the McFadden clan.
- We-we got talking,

he found out what
I did at the NRPS,

said he wanted to get
into the pharma trade...

- You never go into business with people...
- I had no idea who he was.

It was an opportunity,
consultancy work, he said,

it was a chance to clear some debt to look after Mum.
- Clear some debt?

We could never afford
somewhere like this,

with all this stuff she needs,
or the nurses, the carers...

No, no, don't you
DARE put this on Mum!

I had to take care of it all because
what were we going to do? Eh?

Were you going to
give up your job?

Be her full-time carer?
- Oh, you care so much, Naz. - The only reason

we can both go to work every day
is because Duncan gave me a loan

and a deal on this place.
- A loan?

Once he had his hooks in,
he wouldn't leave me alone.

Jaiy, Jaiy. He threatened me, Mum
and the kids. I had no choice.

You always have a choice!
You should have come to me.

He said he'd hurt you as well.

Did you give him the code for the
containers so they can steal it

from the boat? Tell me!

That's how I was supposed
to repay the loan.

But he'll never let me out now!

Why was Galloway k*lled?

- Who the hell is Galloway?
- Don't you dare lie.

Ah! The weights, they
don't match on the exports

and your name is on
the purchase orders!

Somebody else on my team
could easily find out.

- Not if you help me. - What?
- We could cover it up,

just make it go away. - Just let me think!
- Jaiy, Jaiy, Jaiy, please.

Will you shut up?! Shut up!

- Jaiy, please.
- Move!

If you tell anybody,
we're all dead!

DOOR CLOSES

UPBEAT CEILIDH MUSIC

MUSIC ENDS

Now... now I see why
we need the knife.

Oh, stop it! Someone birled you
a couple of times, that was it.

Don't think I don't
realise this whole charade

is just so you can fuss
in all my business.

Ah... I'm trying to
help you to reconnect.

Reconnect? We don't
need to reconnect.

- That was magnificent.
- Thanks, Grantley.

I'm glad one of you is
enjoying themselves.

Shall I get us another round?
- No, it's my turn

and I'll get some shots, too.

Has he always been this uptight?

He was the total
opposite as a boy.

- Really?
- Ah!

Er...

Look.

Oh, h*-h*-h*! Look
at that smile!

He was always having a
carry-on when he was likkle.

Playing jokes on
people. Belly laughing.

- Take it he wanted to follow in your footsteps?
- Well, no.

He did want to be a cowboy
when he was three. Heh!

Things sorta changed
after his mother died.

Oh.

I'm so sorry.

He's done well to find
his feet over here.

It will never be home, though.
- What makes you say that?

Well, it's not Jamaica.

- He's happy here, though, isn't he?
- Not really.

That's why he's coming back
with me after he graduates.

NEW SONG BEGINS

WOMAN: - Do ye fancy a dance?

I'm not surprised you're hungover,
the amount you drank last night.

And you've skilfully managed
to avoid talking to me lately.

- I don't want no argument.
- All right. Then let's agree not to.

Cool.

You might be finishing your training
soon and both of we know you have to

work twice as hard over here
because of how you come here.

Er, for now, maybe.

Back home we have
four guys retiring.

With your experience from here
you could be fast-tracked,

promoted in a year.

I want to work for my place.
I don't want it handed to me.

Stop being so proud. It's a
chance to climb the ladder.

But I came here to
carve my own path.

And you have! But now you need to
think about your long-term future.

Can you really see yourself in
Aberdeen for the rest of your life?

Duncan?

Why don't you and Ruth come round
to mine for dinner on Sunday?

- Sounds good.
- Feel like I've hardly seen you lately.

How you doing? You seem tired.

Just all this stuff with Lucas
has put a lot on all our plates.

Duncan...

I know you assume that I
thought more of him than you

but that was never the case.

I promised your dad I'd keep
you on the straight and narrow.

But it was all right
for him to be all-in?

We had a different life.

We were brought up in it. Your dad
wanted something better for you.

I can make my own
choices, thanks.

Absolutely. And I respect that.

So let me all-in.

The further we are away from it
all, the more they cannae touch us.

- So you've been doing me a favour?
- Yeah.

You know I'm always here for you.
- Aye. I know.

Appreciate it.

We good?

- Course.
- Better sh**t. I've got a meeting.

RINGING TONE

It's me.

Get eyes on him.

- Ah, someone is in early.
- Yeah.

Trying to find a link between
Captain Neilsen and Lucas Galloway.

Look at this. Neilsen's flat
is owned by Middlegrove Homes,

which is a subsidiary
company of...

The McFadden Family Group.

Whoa.

The note was a match for
Neilsen's handwriting.

- So it was definitely suicide.
- LINDO YAWNS.

Keeping you up, Lindo?

Sorry, boss, a bit of
an unexpected night.

Lightweight.

Right. Any links between
Galloway and Captain Neilsen?

Yes, as a matter of fact.

Neilsen's flat is owned
by a subsidiary company

of the McFadden Family Group.

And Galloway's listed
as a company director.

- The captain's living there rent-free.
- There we have it.

The two cases ARE connected.
- So are we saying Galloway

and Captain Neilsen ran the CK business, then?
- Well, looks like it.

We think that Hassan interrupted
the drug theft on the boat,

which meant that they
couldn't declare him

and so they put him overboard, not
realising that Mariam was hiding.

Then when Neilsen
did find Mariam,

he couldn't bring himself to do
the same and so he let her go.

That's a good motive for
what happened to Hassan

but Mallick and I checked out
both sides of the shipping.

It's all legit.
- Yeah. Yeah, bang-on.

So how could they be
running a CK operation

if there's no Ketamine missing?

It's the only boat that
brings it into Scotland.

They had security on
duty, CCTV everywhere

and no access to keys or codes.
Only the importers and exporters do.

No-one touched the container.

In that case it has to be
stolen while it's on the ship.

So, we can connect Neilsen

to our m*rder victim via
the property he rented,

also the fact that we now know

Galloway was k*lled by
a lethal injection of CK

and Neilsen's boat was
importing Ketamine.

We suspect that they were both

running the CK drugs
operation together

because Galloway had access to
cocaine through the McFaddens.

Mariam and Hassan were
also on Neilsen's boat,

and Hassan is now
missing, presumed dead.

So we've got links
all over the shop but

no physical evidence
of anything.

Yeah, and if Neilsen was
stealing from the ship

he's not going to be
doing it on his lonesome.

Maybe his crew was helping him.

Or maybe they got wind of what he
was up to and that's why he's dead.

He was putting them all at risk.

Let's find out.

Bring them in.

Your crew members tell me you
were in charge of the cargo ship.

If something go wrong
with a container,

you have the pass codes.
- No.

If we need a code we have to
radio in to the port authority,

and they authorise
it from the exporter.

It's all recorded, you
know, you can check.

Elsa, your colleagues claim you're
in charge of all documentation.

Anything ever seem
strange to you

about the paperwork for the
pharmaceutical containers?

No. Why?

Well, we suspect Ketamine was being
stolen from one of your shipments.

How would that be possible?

What does your job as marine
mate on the Stolthet involve?

I am the navigator, so I assist
the captain with positioning,

direction, speed.
- You must have been shocked at his death.

Of course.

I don't understand
why he would do it.

Well, my detectives
found a note at his flat.

Said that something serious
had happened on board.

I'm not sure what that would be.

What you do after the
ship come into Aberdeen?

Went straight to my hotel.

Why was Captain Neilsen in your
car when you left the dock?

I dropped him off
at his place first.

He doesn't drive.

Tell us about the process of the
bill of lading for the cargo.

Um, well, it starts with
exporters in Norway,

they pass it to the freight
carriers, who then give it to me,

and it's added to the manifest.

I pass it to the carriers
in Scotland when we arrive.

And from there it goes to the
relevant distribution centre

to be matched with
a purchase order?

It's not my job to follow
it after it leaves the ship.

Excuse me, are you accusing me

of being part of this
Ketamine smuggling?

Is it part of your duty to make sure
that all the lifeboats are there,

working order?
- Yes.

And before we left Stavanger
they were all accounted for.

But then I noticed that one
was missing just as we were

coming into Aberdeen. And I asked
the captain about it but he...

He just told me to
mind my own business.

Do you remember seeing
anybody on the ship

who shouldn't have been there?
Anybody in the cargo containers?

- Our captain already told you.
- Yeah. And now he's dead.

Were you or have you ever been
involved in any drugs operation

on board the Stolthet?
- Drugs operation? On our ship?

Huh! That's insane.

What about stowaways?

- We never had any.
- We have an eyewitness who says otherwise.

I don't like what
you're accusing me of.

We haven't accused
you of anything. Yet.

- I want a lawyer.
- Well, you're just helping us with our inquiries.

I said I want a lawyer.

Sorry, boss. Sorry, team. Um...

So, Axel admit in our interview
that him give Neilsen a lift home

to his flat at Harbour Point.
But claimed to go straight back

to his hotel after
dropping him off so

I checked out the
CCTV in the area,

but the two of them enter the
building and, as you can see,

Axel is carrying a holdall.

That's got to be the Ketamine.

Yeah, no doubt he'll claim it's
his jammies and toothbrush.

There's more. So, I looked
into the rental of these flats

and number 9A is
never rented out.

Could be where they cut the CK.

Hmm! Good work, Lindo.

But how are they covering their
tracks with the Ketamine theft?

I've been thinking about that and
the only way is if they've got

somebody on the inside
cooking the books.

Do you want me to dig into the
export side of things again, boss?

You trying to wangle yourself a
free holiday to Norway, Monty?

- I've already done that.
- What, try and wangle a free holiday?

- Are you double-checking my work?
- No.

- What, am I not as thorough as you, is that it?
- Mallick.

- Why is she always like this?!
- Take five, Mallick!

Oh...

Now!

Look, he's, erm, he's
under a lot of stress

just with his mum's illness, OK,
so just don't take it to heart.

So we think Axel is in the CK
operation with Captain Neilsen.

Right, the rest of the crew,
they seem clean, apart from Emil.

I mean, there's no way you
could work that close wae him

and not think there's something going on.
- Yeah, same with Elsa,

she's across all documentation
and she lawyered up pretty fast.

Well, it makes sense that Captain
Neilsen would need both of them

and Axel to make the
smuggling operation work.

Right, OK, look, why don't
we organise a warrant

for Galloway's unleased
flat? See what we can find.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Hello?
- Lindo. It's Mariam. You need to help me, please...

- Whoa, whoa, Mariam...
- ..they're going to send me... - ..slow down,

slow down, slow down!

MARIAM PANTS

Her asylum claim has
been deemed inadmissible

because she landed in
Norway before she come here.

Them can't do this, she's a
witness in our case, she's pregnant

and she just lost her partner.
- Lindo.

Leave it with me, OK? I
will talk to Immigration

and I will make sure that they
know that she has to stay put

because she's a person
of interest to us.

Will that stop her
from being deported?

It will buy her some more time.

Look, she will have a chance to
contest any ruling that they make

and we'll support her however we can.
- Thanks, boss.

In the meantime, I would like
you and Bart to go and ask Mariam

if she ever saw any of the crew going into those containers.
- Cool.

Maybe we've just been
asking the wrong questions.

Jaiy.

I know we've checked everything
out, I'm just clutching at straws.

No, look, I'm... sorry,
I didn't mean to snap.

I really have turned over
every stone on the export side.

Is there anything else
bothering you? I mean,

besides your mum, of course.

I'm just

knackered, from all
the running about.

It's always left to me, you know?
- OK.

No need to worry about
the Home Office just yet.

So they're not deporting me?

They can't do anything
until our case is closed.

Until you... find Hassan's body?

Mariam, that night on the boat,

did you see any of the ship's
crew go into the containers?

No, the only person I saw was
the man who told me to be quiet.

We think there might have
been something going on that

Hassan got in the middle of.

Like what?

PHONE BUZZES

Yeah, go ahead.

How are tings at the hostel?

Not good. I cannot sleep there.

Warrant's through for the flat.

Yeah.

OK.

Police, open up!

What the hell?

It's been cleaned out.

Somebody got here before us.

Thanks for the tip-off. I'm
guessing it came from your brother.

- Yeah, he wanted to help.
- That's good.

Because there's something else
we need from him. Remember?

We need a location for the girl.
- I told you, he can't do that.

Then make sure we get her today.

What you up to?

If there was drugs in here,
they might've left traces.

Check you.

It is in all the DI
training manuals.

Have you forgotten already?

Right, that's forensics just pulled
up. Let's give them some space.

You think Axel
know we're coming?

Maybe he got spooked
by the questioning.

Look, let's just
call it a day, OK?

I'll get uniform to
bring him back in.

Right! Who's up for a swallie?

Ah, better catch
up with my father.

You've changed your tune. Maybe
we should invite him for a pint.

DOORBELL CHIMES

I came here to let you
know that my brother's out.

You might've forced him
into this but it stops now.

- Forced him? Is that what he's been telling ye?
- I gave you the tip-off

about the flat in exchange
for you letting Naz go.

- When was that agreed?
- Look,

I'll make sure you go down for a
very long time unless you back off.

That theory would be great

if I couldn't bring your
little brother down with me.

Naz is out.

End of.

MUSIC PLAYS THROUGH EARPIECE

Everything installed now.

You have music, relaxing
sounds, breathing exercises.

It might help you sleep.
- Thank you. It definitely will.

You didn't have to do this.

Detective Lindo, can I
ask, where are you from?

- Jamaica.
- Why did you come here?

To find my own way in the world

and I don't think that
could happen back home.

My father is

very domineering.
- Mine too.

Hassan is completely different.

He would be a great father.

I hoped Scotland
would be our new home.

Yeah, same for me
but if I'm honest,

I'm not sure
Aberdeen is my place.

Why not?

It's complicated.

Let's just say the team don't
always agree with my tactics.

You have a mind of your own.

SHE SINGS

Hey.

Do you want to tell me why you
went to see Mariam last night?

- Good morning to you, too, Bart.
- Katie just text me,

concerned that one of our team showed up.
- Hold on.

I gave her some earphones to help
her sleep. What's wrong with that?

- So why didn't you tell me you were going?
- There was no point.

No, the point is you shouldn't be
playing the knight in shining arm our.

HE LAUGHS

You know who you
sound like? Mallick.

Hmm. Cheap shot.

You could jeopardise
this entire case.

Can you try and be a human being
here? She's all alone in that place.

And can you think like a
police officer for once?!

You cannot do things like that!

You just... can't. OK?

Not without telling me first.

Because it will
jeopardise your promotion

and that's all that matters, right?
- What do you care, anyway,

when you're heading
back to Jamaica?

Huh?

Yeah. Something else
you didn't tell me.

What you said to her?!

- The truth. That you're coming back home with me.
- You have no right!

Just like you have no
right to embarrass me

with the pictures you show her.
- Don't be ridiculous.

I was showing them
out of affection.

Affection?

Well, that's new.
- So what?

All your problems come because
me never hug you enough?

You hardly even look at
me after me mother die.

- That is not true.
- No? You blamed me.

You was never around after that.

- I had to work.
- Work?

Yeah, and that was
always more important.

Davis.

You have to come
back home with me.

So we can make things
right between us.

Davis!

Traces of Ketamine were found in
the air vent, and the carpet samples

were a match for the fibres that
we found in Galloway's hair.

Gold stars for Bart and Lindo.

Maybe you two should
move into forensics.

You'd love that, wouldn't you?

- So Galloway was k*lled in the flat and then moved to the car?
- Aye.

And we were right about the flat
where they cut and stash the CK.

It still doesn't explain
how the crew get away

with stealing the Ketamine.
- Well, guess what your job is today, Monty.

- Should've kept my trap shut.
- I can give you a hand. - Er, no, Mallick.

I need you on the ground leading
the team to try and find Axel

because he has
disappeared into thin air.

Uniform can't find him.
I've got no doubt you will.

I've got my mum's meds
at lunchtime, remember?

Yeah, I'm sure you
can make it work.

OK, Lindo, you
can be with Monty.

Yes, boss.

Do we think that something went
wrong with the CK operation

and that Axel k*lled
Galloway and Neilsen?

Maybe. But maybe there's somebody
else that wants them all dead.

Grace McFadden.

- Really?
- Coke sales take a dive,

she soon hears that CK is
flooding the street, you know,

she doesn't realise it's
coming from her own outfit.

Maybe she found
out about Galloway.

k*lled him and then
took over the operation?

Galloway's been laundering cash
through the legit businesses

so maybe that's
how she found out.

I mean, it's a good
motive, isn't it?

You know, she has worked her
backside off over the years,

she's tried to keep anything legit
away from the murky side of things.

Bart, you're with me.

I think it's time we put
the squeeze on Grace.

- How can I help, sir?
- I'm here to see Detective Lindo, please.

- Oh, Mr Lindo.
- Grantley!

And if you'd be so kind as to tell
me where that boy of mine is hiding?

He hasn't returned not one text
or call of mine all morning.

We have been very busy.

Ah.

Him say him too
busy to come down.

Everything all right
between you two?

Just a few things we
need to work through.

Well, families are...
They're certainly never easy.

But usually things have a way
of working themselves out.

I'm not so sure.

Well, you have raised a very
strong-willed young man.

A likkle too
strong-willed at times.

Just like his daddy.

When Davis told me he was moving
here I thought it was just a phase,

something he had to
get out of his system,

that it wouldn't
last long at all.

Well, I wasnae convinced that we
were the right fit for him, either,

but he seems to be
proving us both wrong, eh?

Monty! You're burying yourself in
paperwork, come up fi some air now.

Cheers.

I've actually just
come across something.

PHONE BEEPS It might be nothing but...
- Hold on.

Remember the unidentified prints on Galloway's car?
- Yeah.

I ran them through the system
again and I just got a notification

there's a match. I'll
forward it to you.

PHONE RINGS

- Naz?
- Jaiy! Jaiy, it's me.

What's wrong?

Naz, what's going on?! Is
it Mum, is she all right?

I'm sorry, I'm so sorry.

Naz, tell me what it is!

Y-you need to tell
them where the girl is.

They're at Mum's house and
they've got a petrol b*mb!

- What?!
- I'm not messing about, Jaiy.

- Is-is that what they're telling you?
- I'm-I'm here with them.

There's a guy outside,
he's going to do it, Jaiy,

he's giving me to
the count of three!

OK, Naz, calm down. Listen,
just... let me think!

- One.
- No! Naz! Wait! Wait!

Two. I-I'm so sorry.

- Let-let me talk to them, let me talk to them.
- Three.

Jaiy, Jaiy, please!
- Mariam Faraki!

She's at a hostel
on Powell Street.

Mariam Faraki.

Naz!

So am I out now?! Yeah?!

HE YELLS

They're Mariam's.

Her prints wouldn't have been in the
system the first time we ran these.

That's why we didn't get a hit before.
- She said she ran into

a couple of vehicles
as she left the dock,

one of them must have been Galloway's.
- Well, that puts him

at the harbour some time
the night he was k*lled.

What if somebody else was
in the car with Galloway?

That would mean them
see her as well.

Look, both Galloway and Neilsen
are dead and Axel's disappeared.

Everyone in this case is
dropping like flies, Lindo.

You need to get her
into protective custody.

PHONE RINGS

- Monty, what's up?
- I think I've found something.

The price per kilo of the Ketamine
charged by the pharma company

doesn't match how much the
NRPS are paying for it.

It's like the NHS are paying
way more than they should.

The numbers are off.

You said they
wouldn't take Mariam!

I'm here to bring her
into protective custody.

Well, you're too late. Cos
she's gone with Immigration.

They said the deportation had been
signed off and they had paperwork.

- Who?
- Some guys from the Home Office.

That's not possible. They said
to my boss she will not be moved.

Oh, God.

Do you remember when I said
there was someone on the inside

doctoring the purchase
orders on the NRPS side?

UNTRANSLATED CHATTER

They can run but
they can't hide.

UNTRANSLATED CHATTER

Mallick?

Mallick, are you still there?
- I'm... Yeah, yeah, I'm still here.

Well, I'm waiting to
find out whose signature

is on the bottom of those
purchase orders. Hang on a sec.

No, Monty, wait.

Monty?

Talk to me!

Wait!

Monty?

Catch you now.

UNTRANSLATED CHATTER Quiet.

Don't touch me!

Come on.

Stop the car!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

HORN HONKS CONTINUOUSLY
