01x06 - Episode 6

[bunniefuu]

Joan Barrie's back in town.

Carol. I'm moving in.
You're early.

You must have really loved him,
then. I suppose so.

There's a DNA sample from the scarf
that was wrapped around his head.

What have you done? His eye!

I have always loved you.
Well, I don't love you.

I know for a fact that Joan's
never set foot in South America.

I am so sorry, Martha.

'Fancy finding you in here,
you little bundle of gorgeousness.'

Anything you want to tell me,
Mother? No, I don't think so.

Moira Crottie?

I'm arresting you on suspicion
of the m*rder of Neil Barrie.

Carol! Carol!

What are we gonna do about your mam?
Should we go to the station?

I don't know.

I know she's selfish, Carol.
I know she's a liar.

I know she's a lot of things.

But she's not a k*ller.

Morning.

Those boxes were for charity.

Do you want it?
This wasn't yours to throw away.

I didn't know it was there.
Of course you can keep it.

I don't want to keep it.
You used to love that thing.

You slept in it.
You wanted to wear it in the bath.

I want to burn it.

Sally?

Do you want to talk
about what happened yesterday?

At the fundraiser?

What were you thinking?

Was it for social media?
For followers?

You humiliated yourself.

And what about that poor wife?
What's she done to deserve that?

What about how you humiliated us?
Whispers and pity wherever we went.

"Those poor, sad Barrie kids."

What did we do to deserve that?

Matt?
Dan.

I just got your message.
Kaden's not picking up.

Is everything...? Is everything OK?
The baby's fine.

Sorry, I couldn't get hold of you.
Martha didn't have her phone.

How...? How's she doing?

She lost a lot of blood.
But she's had a transfusion, so...

She's gonna be all right.
OK.

God. I'm... I'm so sorry.

You ready to meet her? The baby?

Her?
Yeah.

Yeah.

Tiny thing. Mad.

Right. I guess we need to start
on the paperwork.

Martha want to keep her?
No.

No, it's Kaden.
What's he done?

Dan, there's no way Martha
is gonna let him be involved.

You, yeah.
What did he do?

Dan! Dan.

Is Martha all right?
Is the baby all right?

I'm not talking to you right now.
I'll say something I'll regret.

Is it a boy or a girl?
She could have died.

They both could.
But they're OK?

Dan, listen, I am really sorry.
I just panicked.

Panicked?
You tricked her into the car.

You kidnapped her. What the hell
is wrong with you, man?

They're not gonna give us the baby.
Not with you involved, anyway.

And do you know what?
I don't blame them.

Dan. I am so sorry.
Why?!

Why do you have to self-sabotage
all the time?

Yes, guv?

Yeah, sure. No problem.
Dan, please don't go. Stay.

I can't, I have to go.
More Barrie mess. Your uncle.

He can wait.

I'd say he's waited long enough,
actually, Kaden.

Turns out he's been dead
for 20 years.

What are you talking about?
You heard.

He was hit on the head.

Had a seven-inch nail rammed
into his eye for good measure.

Moira, she's been arrested
on suspicion.

She was having an affair with your
dad at the time. Did you know that?

I mean, seriously, your family...

It's no wonder you're so mental.
Dan, please stay.

I told you not to talk to me
right now. I just...

Pack a bag, stay somewhere else
for a bit, will you?

Mr David Crottie? We have a warrant
to search the premises.

Anna, come on.
Anna, open the door. Don't do this.

Don't forget this.

Anna, what are you doing? Anna...
No, don't do this now.

Anna! No.
What are you doing? Anna!

Take your sh*t...
and find somewhere else to live!

All right. This is embarrassing.

Doing this in front of the street.
Is it embarrassing?

Yes, it is.
I'm so sorry you're embarrassed!

Yeah, I deserve that.
I absolutely deserve it.

Not my sh... Look, let me...

Anna, stop. Calm down, please.
Just let me in, let's talk about it.

What are you doing?

That's cashmere. No! Anna...

And you've got a tiny prick!

Are you aware that you are being
held on suspicion of the m*rder

of Neil Barrie and a second charge
of perverting the course of justice?

Could we have audible answers,
please, Mrs Crottie?

Yes, I am aware.
Right.

Is it fair to say that you know
the Barrie family intimately?

I suppose so. Yes.

Some members of the family
more intimately than others?

No comment.
How well did you know Neil Barrie?

Not well at all.
When did you last see him?

No comment.

Did you hire a van from a company
called VanWithoutAMan

on the 5th of March?

No comment.

Mrs Crottie is viewing
the receipt of payment

received by VanWithoutAMan
from a Mrs Moira Crottie

of 11 Oakhaven Walk
on the fifth of March.

Maybe somebody stole my credit card.

How long were you romantically
involved with Robert Barrie for?

It was a long time ago.
Yes. That's what interests me.

Because that's
the exact same period of time

that Neil Barrie
was last seen alive.

You... You see where I'm going here.

Was it a passionate relationship,
your affair with Robert?

No comment.

Would you have done anything
for him? No comment.

Was the plan to get Neil and Joan
out of the way?

What?

Only Joan Barrie left
before you could finish the job?

What are you talking about?

Why would you dispose of a body if
it wasn't your body to dispose of?

Her DNA's on the scarf, sir.

And this links you directly
to the body.

Moira Crottie, you are being charged
with the m*rder of Neil Barrie.

Dan. We've got her, Turns out the
scarf on the body belonged to Moira.

Great.
Can I...? Can I have a quick word?

So, how would you...? How do you
feel about moving to Newcastle?

There's a job going
in the department.

It's not quite a slam dunk yet

without a m*rder weapon
or a confession, but...

More of just a dunk at the moment.
A dunk is good.

Very good!

Get the case closed,
and I'll put in a word.

All right. Thank you, Matt.
Thanks for the update.

I will. I will. I'll come in
and see them as soon as I can.

All right. Bye-bye-bye.
Dan! You have to do something.

My mam didn't do it.
You've got it wrong. It wasn't her.

We've got hard evidence, Carol.
The scarf, right?

They were having an affair!
Joan must have found it.

Look, they're moving her
to a Cat B prison, end of tomorrow.

What? What the hell?

But it wasn't her.
Carol. I can't talk about it to you.

It was Joan, Dan.

There's no evidence.
Those postcards.

Why would she send them?
Have you looked?

What? What postcards?

I gave them to your boss!
Look! Right, look at this.

Her passport. See?
She hasn't travelled anywhere.

She never went to South America.
Carol, I can't talk about this.

How was she supposed
to have k*lled him, then?

At least tell me that.
It's all circumstantial, isn't it?

You haven't even got
the m*rder weapon, have you?

It's only a matter of time.
It's... got a unique profile.

Unique how?
Go on, Dan, give me something.

We know the weapon's patterned.
It left an impression on his skull.

Fibonacci sequence. Look it up.

Just tell her to come clean, Carol.
Make it easier on herself.

"The Fibonacci sequence
is often used

"in furniture design and woodwork
to create balance and symmetry."

My God.

Carol. To what do I owe
this pleasure?

I just wanted to have a word.

To apologise for all the trouble
we've caused.

I've not been very welcoming.

Could I come in?

You'll notice
I've had a spring clean.

Out with the old, I say.

How's Moira doing?

Me and my dad,
we're just in shock, you know.

Yeah. She fooled me.

She fooled him.
She's going to prison.

That's my cake. Perfect timing.

Hiya, Sal.

Feeling OK?
See you've been having a clear-out.

Yeah. Four car-loads to the Emporium
on the High Street.

Is, er...? Is Moira going to prison?

Looks that way.

Damn, I forgot, I said
I'd pick my dad up at the doctor's.

Joan, I've got to go. I'm so sorry.

Another time! See you.

Shaped like a pine cone.

You've seen it
a thousand times, Dad.

I can't believe
you haven't noticed it.

All right. Let's go in.

Crikey. Where do we begin?

Let's get started, then.

People do things out of passion
and lust. It happens.

He persuaded you. He got greedy.

You'll do much better for yourself
coming clean.

Honestly, a full confession'll
get you leniency.

I'm gonna die in prison, aren't I?

For something that I didn't even do.

Moira... we've been to
your husband's fishing shed.

We found rope and weights
that match those used on the body.

We'll be questioning your husband.
No.

Was he an accomplice?
No.

Please. Please leave him alone.
He's a good man.

Tell us how you did it.

Hey, this is smashing.

Wait a minute.

Here, Dad.

This is all Neil's stuff.
It's evidence Joan's got rid of!

We're taking this home.

Hey... Carol.

Hiya.

Brought you a cup of tea.

Dan. I can't go to prison.

I light the candles in the church.
I'm in the Rotary at last.

Moira, just... just stop all this.

The evidence is stacked against you.

I'm being set up.
We know you put him in the river.

There's forensic evidence
in the van. It's not fair.

You're useless, Dan.

How many times have you
been round Stable Row?

How many times have you
hung your coat in that cloakroom?

And smelt that peculiar smell
coming from down...?

Emily? She's run away!

Is Emily here?
What?

Is she? Is she here?

No.

I can help you look for her.
You've caused enough trouble.

Emily! Where are you? Emily?

Here. Carol, we could be
tampering with evidence here.

Let's just see
if it is evidence first.

I don't trust the police anyway,
Dad.

Look what's happening with Mam.

If there's blood,
this'll show it up.

Why've you even got one of those?

Your mam won't check into a B&B
without it.

Get the lamp.

Ready?
Ready.

Here, you hold the torch.

It's covered in it.

My God.

When's Dan coming?

I left a message just saying
to come as soon as he can.

All right, pet.

I'll be in the garage
if you need me.

Sam, have you seen little Emily?
No.

Emily?

Emily, where are you?

Emily!

Emily!

What are you doing here?

Looking for you. I thought
you were with the painter man.

Your mam's been worried sick.

We've been looking for you
everywhere!

Right, I've got to get you home.
No. I'm not going home. I hate home.

OK. We don't have to go home.

We can stay here.

Sally...

No.

No, no, no, no, no, no...

Emily?

Sometimes, bad things happen
at home.

But your mummy and daddy love you
so much.

They'd be lost without you.

They would cry and cry.

"Boo-hoo, where's our little Emily?"

Tell you what, shall we go
and get some ice cream,

and then we can see
what we feel like doing?

Dad?

Dad, can we talk?

Dad, I need you to help me.

I can't stop these thoughts
in my head.

And I just need... I need answers.

What really happened that day?

The day my mam left?

Please, Dad. Please.

I need you to tell me the truth.

See these birds?

They're all having
territorial disputes.

Can you hear them?

Can you hear me?

What happened?
All fighting.

All shouting at each other.
Trying to... warn each other off.

Why are you so heartless?

Just tell me.

They're very defensive
about their breeding grounds...

...and their baby birds.

Just f*cking shut up!

My love. My little one!
She'd gone to the leisure centre.

The play area.
Thank you, Sally. Thank you.

Sally? You weren't stupid.

You're not the first.
It's happened before.

We both deserve better.

Dan?
'It's Lewis from Gatewick Lodge.

'It's Kaden.'
yeah?

'You need to get over here.'
OK. Yeah. I'm on my way. On my way.



Davina? Come here.
Have a look at this.

Ooh, I could do with a holiday.
Where we going?

Look at the date. 2016.

He'd been dead ten years
when he climbed Machu Picchu.

Not easy with rigor mortis.

Kaden! Are you all right?

He cannot come here
and disturb the residents like that.

OK. We're leaving.

We have a warrant
to search the premises.

Move aside, Mrs Barrie.

You take the kitchen.
We're going to the cellar.

Unlock the door, Joan.

Shall I take you home?

It's all f*cked, Carol.

Everything's f*cked!
I've f*cked my life.

I do terrible things to people.

To Dan, to Martha.
It's everyone I go near.

I feel like I'm cursed.
Kaden, that's not true.

Then there's my mam... and my dad.

All the secrets. I just need to know
the truth. Why did she leave us?

Why won't anyone help me?

Look, there's something
I should tell you.

Kaden, I think I know
why your mam left.

This.

It was in Neil's stuff.
In one of the boxes from the cellar.

What is it?

It's not Tina Ballerina.

Kaden, he made films of her.

Neil was sexually abusing Sally.

My God.

I think your mam found out.
In the house.

And I think she just lost it.

I think she was in the hall, and
she just grabbed what was to hand,

and maybe she didn't even mean
to k*ll him, but she attacked him...

with this,
and it's still got blood on it.

And that's why she left.
She was on the run.

Kaden, I don't want
to turn your mam in,

but I obviously can't let my mam
go to prison

for something she didn't do,

so I've got to hand these in
to the police. Do you understand?

No!

Kaden.

Love, I know it's awful,
and I'm so sorry.

You'll never get it.
You'll never understand.

Cos you're not a Barrie, and you
should be f*cking grateful for that.

You don't get it, do you?!
Get what?

It was all my fault!

What are you talking about?
What did you do?

It was me.

I k*lled him.

Kaden!

James, take the right. Holly, left.
Yes, sir.

No sign of a freezer.

That wall. It doesn't fit
the shape of the house...

What's back there, Joan?

Get it off.

Open it.

No-one leaves this house.
Get the UVs down here. Yes, sir.

f*ck!

Kaden, love...

Kaden!

Kaden, pet. Kaden.
Kaden, look at me!

Kaden, it's OK.
It's all gonna be OK.

No, it's not. It's not gonna be OK.

If I go to prison,
then I'll lose Dan.

And then he'll lose the baby.

Why do I f*ck up everything?!
Kaden, no.

Kaden...

Look, why don't you just tell me
what happened?

Carol! I ca...

If you wanna tell me, just tell me.
I'm not going to judge you.

What happened, darling?

I knew I shouldn't have been
down there by myself.

But... I don't know, I just...

I liked the red light.
And the smell.

And the shiny smooth paper
that made this...

wobbling sound when you shook it.

I know it's stupid, but...

I was playing my football game.

Then the ball went under the cabinet
where he kept his ink.

So I reached under to get it,
and I found this... file.

It had this... photo sheet in it.

I remember looking at it
and thinking, "This is really odd."

It was all these small...
little squares.

Black and white photos.

They were pictures of Sally.

She was on Neil's bed
with nothing on

apart from my mam's red high heels.

I just... At the time, I didn't...
I didn't understand!

When my mam came back,
I showed her them. I don't know why.

I just thought she might think that
they were funny or something, but...

...she just stood there.

Her hands were shaking,

and then she vomited
all over the floor.

She said that she'd had
something bad for lunch,

and then she sent me to meet Sally

to stay at one of the neighbours'
for the night.

After a couple of hours, I realised
I'd left my footie book...

...at the house,
so I went back to get it, and...

...I let myself in.

There was all these thumps and bangs
and shouts from the cellar.

The red light was on.

I could see it
through the cracks in the door.

They were proper fighting, Carol.

I heard these horrible,
horrible noises.

Furniture was crashing.

The thud of a punch.
My mam was just screaming.

I grabbed the first thing
I could find.

The newel post.

I ran down into the cellar.

He was strangling my mam,
and I just...

I just smashed it into his skull.

He tried to grab me.

And with the nail,
I just stabbed him in the eye.

That was the last time I saw her.

Kaden.

You were just a little boy
protecting his mother.

Gonna need you to come down
to the station.

Sally. I need to borrow a car
right now.

I've got to get to Carol quick.

God. It's Kaden, isn't it?

You got keys for this vehicle?
On the hall table.

Neil never left the cellar, did he?

No.

I don't think he did.

All this time, I didn't know
he was dead, I promise.

Just believed their story.

Darling,
they were trying their best.

They were protecting you.

I'm not worth it.
I've got bad blood.

Wait.

Hey, Kaden. You listen to me.

You are nothing like Neil.

Neil was a monster.

He was a child ab*ser,
for crying out loud!

Sally was just five years old!

Kaden?

Sal.

It's true.

Isn't it? It's true?

I knew it.

When no-one was in the house,
when everyone was out...

...that's when he'd do it.

I am so sorry, Sally.

I knew it was my fault she left.

It wasn't your fault she left.

She left because of me.

She took the rap for me.

I did it.

I k*lled Neil.

He didn't mean to do it, Dan.
He didn't even know he'd done it.

Neil was attacking Joan.
He saved her.

You saved me, Kaden.

Maybe no-one needs to know, Dan.

Haven't they been through enough?

Hello.

Where've you been?

Here.

But I was with your kids today,
Robert.

They've been through so much.
They're such good kids.

Yeah, I've been hard on them.

I understand now.

I'd do anything for them, Carol.

And I'd do anything for you.

I know you would, Robert.

Well, it's up to you now, honey.

What do you mean?

Do it for them.

I've got nothing left to lose.

I'd been such a fool.

I thought maybe Neil had feelings
for me, but...

he was just using me to get
to my five-year-old daughter.

I'd trusted him.

How many times
had I left her alone with him?

I heard him go down to his darkroom.

I went downstairs
with the photos in my hand.

I confronted him.
And you know what I saw in his eyes?

Just a sort of... defiance.

I felt a rage like I've never felt
in my life.

I started hitting him...

...and I couldn't stop.

Then he started hitting me back.

He got me on the floor with his
hands around my neck, and then...

Robert was on the staircase
with the newel post cap in his hand.

And he smacked it down
on Neil's head.

Neil was stunned.

He looked up to see who it was...

...and then...

...Robert stabbed him in the eye
with the nail.

When Robert saw the photographs,
it broke him.

Their father had abused them both.

It was agreed that I should go.

We'd pretend that I'd run away
with Neil. And...

...Robert would deal with the body.

PC Evans here tells me
you've got something to say? Yeah.

I thought I was doing Robert
a favour, hiring the van.

I had no idea what he was gonna
use it for.

Had I known...

Anything else
you've been lying about?

Just that I always had this sense

that Robert was hiding something
from me.

That there was something
he just wasn't telling me.

He was protecting his family.

That's not an excuse, I'm afraid.

No.

But he's unfit to plead, right?
He won't go to prison, will he?

There'll be a trial of the facts.

Hiya.

Hiya, love.
Hi. We're having a lovely time.

How's the teaching going, Carol?
I'm really enjoying it, actually.

Year 9s. They're just adorable.

Hey, love. I brought
your gingernuts. Your favourites.

Remember? You used to love them.

Kaden and Sally send their love.
Robert.

That's the house sold, then. Again.

Thank goodness
Kaden got a quick sale.

That you moving again, Joan?

Hey!

Hi, Dan.
Just came to say goodbye.

Aw!
Have a good trip, you three.

Gorgeous.

Hello.
Meet your Uncle Kaden.

Hey, cutie. So beautiful.

I think he's talking to me.

She's got your eyes.

So, when are you moving
to Newcastle, then...

Detective Sergeant?

Taking some time out, actually.
When's your flight?

We're just gonna go right now.

Want some help?
No, no. It's all right.

Kaden?

See you, then.
Bye.

Take care, Dan.

You coming home, Carol, or
do you want dropping off somewhere?

I'll walk. Thanks, though, Dad.

Ta-ra.
Bye, pet.
