01x04 - Palma

Post by bunniefuu »

So, this is where

you'll be standing.

Jack, if you could just move

out the way, please. Thank you.

And then we'll begin

with the vows.

Where's the bride?

The one good thing about

getting married on a ship, old boy,

you're never more than 1,000 feet

from your bride.

She'll be here.

She was at the spa.

Er Ella!

Any ideas where she's got to?

Let me check the schedule. Yes.

Her highlights, lowlights, manicure,

pedicure, massage and waxing

were due to be finished by now.

She needed a lot of waxing.

I don't believe it.

Worm? Oh, it's you!

Ah!

Oh! Hi.

Worm?

Oh, my schoolmates thought

it was hilarious. Bookworm.

KATE CHUCKLES

You and Cecile

went to school together?

She was never out of the library.

And look at you now.

I love the outfit. Erm

What are you doing here?

I'm first officer.

Second-in-charge of the ship.

Oh.

BEV CLEARS THROA

Places, please.

Promise me you'll come

to the hen do tomorrow,

we can have a proper catch-up.

Oh, no, I can't, I'm working.

It's

Didn't you say you were off

for two days, Worm?

Let's check with Captain Jameson.

Where is he? No, no, no.

Er, yes, I remember, you're right.

Thank you for reminding me.

Looks like I can make it.

Perfect.

Yay!

THEY CHUCKLE

SOFTLY: I am so gonna get you back

for that. Mm-hm.

Ice sculptures shaped like swans,

remember?

£650 each.

Mm-hm.

And the centrepiece flowers?

Oh, they have to be

lily of the valley.

It matches my perfume.

Gorgeous (!)

Jack, is the full band accompanying

you for the first dance?

Er, as long as

it doesn't cost extra.

This wedding is a fortune.

More importantly,

what's the craic with the stag?

Can't have the ladies here

having all the fun.

What you thinking?

How's about you show us

the sights tomorrow?

And by the sights, I mean the bars.

CHARLIE CHUCKLES

Leave me to it.

Sorry, darling, calls to make.

Evan can stand in for me. Bye.

If Evan can stand.

How's about me and you

take a dander round the ship,

and you can show me your starboard?

I would rather jump ship

and swim with the sharks.

Excuse me.

ON TANNOY: 'This is Beverley,

your cruise director.

'I'd like to inform all passengers

'that the ship has now arrived

in Palma,

'the gateway

to the beautiful island of Mallorca.

'For those wishing to disembark,

please make your way to deck five.'

Hasta luego, and enjoy your day.

Near gales forecast

for the Balearics.

We'll need to rework the voyage plan

to avoid the worst of it.

Already done it.

Should we have dinner later?

I can't.

I have to go to this hen do.

Woodsy?

A moment of your time?

Yes, Captain.

Kate.

I hope you haven't let

yourself get too distracted

with all this amateur sleuthing.

I wouldn't dream of it, Captain.

Good to hear.

Especially with the staff

captain's post on the horizon.

Eyes on the prize, sir.

Because you're not

the only candidate on board.

Really? Um

Who Who else has applied for it?

First officer de Vreese.

Nothing wrong

with some healthy competition, hm?

But what about Villas Escenicas?

KNOCK AT DOOR

MAN ON PHONE:

'Trust me, it will all be fine.

DOOR OPENS

'We just need more money to make'

There is no more money,

I've told you that.

Just leave it, thanks.

You need to stick to our agreement,

end of story.

WOMEN CHEER

Ready, girls?

Cheers, everyone. Three, two, one.

THEY CHEER

Do you hate hen dos as much as me?

Mm.

If I never go to one again,

it'll be too soon.

Not to mention baby-sitting

the boss's princess of a fiancee.

Hey. You need some boppers.

Ella, you forgot Worm.

Oh, I mean, Kate.

No, no, honestly, it's fine. I'm

Oh, OK, great. There we are.

KATE CHUCKLES

That's lovely.

Perfect.

So, have you got yourself

a nice man, then?

Yes. We work together

on the bridge, actually.

The tall Belgian guy, Piers.

Oh, trust you to snare such a catch.

You know,

I never told you this before,

but I used to really

look up to you at school.

No.

Yeah, it's true.

You were always so career-driven,

never needed a boyfriend,

not like me.

I always had to have one on my arm.

Saved the best till last, though.

Where did you and Charlie meet?

In Dubai. He was on holiday there.

I tripped over his feet

on the way to the dance floor,

and we have never been apart

since then.

And Ella's been like a sister

since she started

working for Charlie.

We need to get to the restaurant.

Come on, ladies.

Finish your Orgasms, let's go.

THEY CHEER

This man here is gonna

make me a fortune.

Property. Luxury villas,

use them six weeks of the year,

the rest of the time, rent them out.

You should get involved,

tell him about the profit.

Based on a 60% occupation rate,

you'll still make a substantial

profit on a deposit of just 20k.

Oh, let's not talk shop, boys,

it's meant to be a stag do.

Fair play. Here, slainte, lads!

ALL: Slainte!

When was the last time

we partied like this?

Here, was it Dubai?

Yep.

Winter sun.

Lads holiday.

Well, it was meant to be,

then your man met Cecile,

did not see him for dust.

THEY LAUGH

And here we are five months later.

Aye, Cecile got her claws

in quickly, there.

THEY LAUGH

I've barely seen you since.

Right, another round.

THEY CHEER

WOMEN CHEER

THEY HUM 'WEDDING MARCH'

WOMEN CHEER

THEY SCREAM,

ELLA COUGHS

Stop that van!

SIREN WAILS

Jack, I almost caught up

with the van. It just

It got away from me.

Of course. Any sign of trouble,

and DI Grayling is right there.

Well, the pleasure is always mine.

You two know each other?

Yeah, Luciana and me

go a long way back.

The police driving course in London.

Should've seen her

in the blues and twos,

like she was racing

in the Grand Prix. OK.

As lovely as this reunion is

Heard you left the job?

News travels fast.

Yeah, I am a singer these days,

on the cruises.

That's what brings you to Palma?

We could talk

about the kidnapping.

Black Ford transit van,

licence plate, K 4914 VQR.

Two kidnappers, both male,

one around my height,

the other one, I'm guessing,

is a little bit taller.

Gracias.

Plenty of CCTV to follow up.

Just in case this senorita

is mistaken.

Any other witnesses, Jack?

Yes, Ella Jones,

and she's just over there.

Miss Jones Wait, she's just been

maced directly in the face.

Shall we make sure she's OK first?

Shouldn't I be the judge of that?

Maybe it's best if we take Ella

back to the ship,

we can get Dr Tan

to check her out, yeah?

Miguel. Por favor.

IN SPANISH:

Please, we will take care of you.

My colleague will get her statement

when she's had medical attention.

Jack. Are you coming?

Actually, do you have a moment?

SHE SIGHS

All right, Ella, come with me.

So, the bride goes missing.

First person I need to speak to

is the groom.

Why would anyone take Cecile?

I mean, it's crazy.

What if they've hurt her?

What if she's?

Look, calm down. Calm down. Right?

Three sugars. It's good for shock.

So's a whiskey.

Let's start at the beginning.

Do you have any family or friends

in Palma? No.

What about your property business?

You must have contacts there.

You have a business? Here in Palma?

I just dipped my toe

into the property world,

building a couple of villas,

nothing big.

And you have someone

selling these for you?

Ad hoc estate agents,

different one every week.

It's all going well,

no issues so far.

And no disagreements with customers?

None at all.

Does Cecile have any ties

to your business?

When we met, she was a beautician.

She's not remotely interested

in my business.

And your relationship? No problems?

She's the love of my life.

I need to let the guests know

what's happened.

Is it OK if I go now?

Let me know if you hear anything.

Mr O'Donnell, not so fast.

If I could just ask you

a few questions?

I think I'm still in shock.

One minute

we're walking down the street,

and the next I get pepper spray

in my eyes.

Charlie must be so worried.

He seems like a really nice guy.

Have you worked for him for long?

Um Four months or so.

He's a great boss. I only deal

with the UK side of the business.

Suits me, less to do.

You get on with Cecile?

Yeah.

Though she can be demanding.

Charlie can never do enough for her.

Hm. Well, she seemed like she didn't

have a care in the world today.

She did say one thing, though.

It's probably nothing.

Right?

She said she hoped Charlie would be

less angry once they got married.

Something about wanting

the old Charlie back.

I've told you,

I barely know Cecile.

Charlie is certainly kept

on a tight leash.

Well, it sounds like

you're not much of a fan of hers.

He's always working.

Mind you, he needs to,

the credit card bills she piles up.

She racks up debt?

Cecile likes

the finer things in life,

and Charlie is determined

to keep her in the manner in which

she certainly has become

accustomed to.

At all costs.

Do you know how much

even one of her handbags cost?

No wonder the poor fella's

stressed all the time.

OK, thank you. We're done here.

Anything else, you know where I am.

The pleasure's all mine.

The plate number Kate gave us.

Did it check out?

Turns out the licence plate is fake.

No surprises there.

There's CCTV showing the van

exiting the freeway,

but so far, no shots

of where it has ended up.

Whoever's taken Cecile's got to be

in touch soon, wanting money.

You know as well as I do that

the first 48 hours are crucial.

If they don't make contact

by then

Then the chances

of getting her back are slim.

HE SIGHS

Why would anyone

want to kidnap Cecile?

Because Charlie

doesn't come across as rich.

And the best man who clearly

can't stand the bride.

Yeah, but he and the groom

were with us the whole morning.

So, could Cecile have enemies?

Well, she is a beautician,

it's hardly a dangerous field.

And she's never been to Palma.

It's gotta be someone who's local,

who can get their hands on a van,

somewhere to hide her.

Well, look, kidnappings

are always about cash, right?

Hm-mm. And Charlie was about to

throw the wedding of all weddings.

Beverly mentioned that

he hadn't paid for it yet.

Even though she sent the bill twice.

Plus, Evan said Cecile

is spending money like water.

Yes, I did hear him having

an argument on the phone yesterday.

Something about Villas Escenicas

and some guy wanting more money,

but Charlie refused.

He mentioned Villas at the stag do.

Evan seemed to think they were

a sure-fire way to make money.

Hm.

They've even got their own website.

"Luxury villas in Palma."

I mean, he told Perez

that business was booming.

Not according

to the disgruntled customers,

if these comments

are anything to go by.

Listen to this from the Cullens.

"We want our deposits returned

"for a holiday villa

we bought in good faith

"that has never materialised."

Sounds like a bit of a scam to me.

Hm.

Fancy a trip?

Welcome, welcome,

Mr and Mrs Duvall, si? Ah-ha.

Nelson Raposo.

We spoke on the phone.

LIVERPOOL ACCENT:

It's Kev, and this is, er

Pam, the old ball and chain.

LIVERPOOL ACCENT:

You all right, mate?

No need for formalities!

Let me introduce you

to Villa Escenicas.

They are the highest quality.

Can we not see one that's finished?

They will be ready before you know

it. My team are muy rapido.

The best.

AEROPLANE FLIES OVERHEAD

A beautiful location, too.

Very handy for the airport.

Have you two, er, any bambinos?

Yeah, three.

Yeah, two.

We've one on the way.

THEY CHUCKLE

They are gonna love the pool.

Ah.

Builders, eh? What can you do?

So the developers

who bought the land first,

you're working closely with them?

Si, si. We have

the planning permission agreed.

Nothing can spoil the view.

Ah, that's lovely.

I can smell the garden already.

I love it, Kev.

Ah.

PHONE RINGS

Oh, excuse me, senora.

Yes, I can't talk. I

OK. You need to relax.

There are no problems.

I will meet you.

I'll be there.

And how do I know

it'll be finished on time?

Or at all?

It's still at phase one.

It will be ready in two months.

Or you get a price reduction. Oh!

All in the contract.

Does the master bedroom

have an ensuite?

Si, si, it will have.

Oh. I mean, it's just

There's so much space,

isn't there? So much space.

It's massive.

You call me later, yes?

Hm-mm.

Let me know.

Can I say,

you two look a happy couple.

Aw.

Everyone says that, lad, don't they?

They do.

Yeah!

That Nelson's as dodgy as they come.

There were plenty of builders.

It didn't look like they were

doing much work, though.

PHONE BLEEPS

So much for the planning permission.

Perez says the water authority

denied permission

for any villas to be built

full stop.

So they're selling

half-done villas

that they know

will never be finished?

I mean, it's no wonder

Nelson looked on edge

when you mentioned developers.

Look, why don't you

head back to the ship?

Keep your eyes peeled. I'll ask

Jamil to meet me at Bar Vos.

Let's see who turns up

to meet Nelson.

Jamieson said what a good job I did

bringing the ship alongside

this morning.

Oh, lucky you.

Next time maybe

we could say toss a coin for it.

Playing fair for a change, are we?

You've been off with me.

Want to tell me

what this is all about?

The staff captain's job.

I know that you applied for it.

The captain asked

if I wanted to apply for it.

I was going to discuss it with you,

but

But you didn't.

I've barely seen you

away from the bridge.

You've been spending all your time

with Jack Grayling.

Or maybe you wanted to be

first in line for the job.

HE SCOFFS

I would never go behind your back!

I'm honest

as the very long summer day.

If you don't mind,

some of us have got work to do.

Jack.

What took you?

I had cabins to clean!

Right, the guy in the navy shirt

with the stubble.

Navy shirt, stubble.

Right.

Let me know who he's with

and what they're talking about.

They won't even know I'm there.

OK, OK, OK.

WHISPERING

Hey. He's in there

with Charlie's best man. Evan.

Did you hear what they were saying?

I couldn't get close enough,

but Evan seemed very angry.

He never mentioned that he knew any

of Charlie's business colleagues.

PHONE RINGS

Charlie? Hi.

What?

Calm down, mate.

Look, I'll be there, yeah?

I've gotta go.

Let me know what happens.

OK.

'Charlie, please,

'please, please,

'give them the money.

'I just wanna come back to you.

'Don't let me die.'

How am I supposed to get

that kind of money together?

Well, with all the villas

you've sold,

it must add up to a fair bit.

I've got building costs

coming out of my ears.

So why have none of them been built?

They are mid-build.

They should be finished in

Two months, phase one.

Yeah, we heard that

from Nelson Raposo,

the friendly estate agent.

But that isn't true, is it?

Because the water authority denied

their planning agreement

two months ago.

So you've been selling the villas

knowing they'll never be built

and keeping the deposits.

I had no idea

that this was going to happen.

Why should we believe

a word you say?

I swear on Cecile's life.

I went into business

with a property company out here,

and it all looked great on paper.

I quoted the UK customers,

collected the deposits,

THEY did the viewings.

The guy, yeah, Nelson,

he was the project manager here,

and he tells me that the water

company changed their minds,

but all these people own

is a dry patch of wasteland.

But he swore we'd get planning.

We even did to begin with,

and then

CHARLIE SCOFFS,

SIGHS

I need the cash back to refund

all the people who are suing me.

And Cecile knew all about this?

Told her at the start of the cruise,

said that if Nelson didn't cough up,

I'd likely lose

everything I've worked for.

She was so supportive, and

..then she's kidnapped.

You need to tell the police.

The video said no police.

No, Perez'll be able to h

Do me for fraud?

It'll be my word against Nelson's.

They'll think

that we were in on it together.

Maybe we shouldn't tell Perez

..for Cecile's sake.

JACK SIGHS

I need to make a withdrawal.

Yeah.

Jack.

How's it going, fella?

Huh, bit of a crawl, is it?

Thought I saw you earlier

at Bar Vos.

Nelson Raposo, you know him?

Never heard of him.

Ah, that's a bit

of a coincidence, then,

turning up at the same bar

at the same time

with the exact bloke

that sells Charlie's villas.

Heard the pair of you

got into a bit of a fight.

Listen, why don't you just stick

to your show tunes

and keep your nose out of it,

all right, mate?

Evan. Where the hell have you been?

CHARLIE SCOFFS

Cecile was right.

You are a waste of space.

All because she chose me that night

and not you.

Charlie, mate,

don't start this again, OK?

That's why you don't even care

that she's missing

cos you're jealous!

Hey

You always have been!

Charlie! Charlie.

Come on.

THEY WHISPER,

CHUCKLE

This is the guy you met

at the villas?

Two sugars, right?

HE CHUCKLES

Yes, that's the guy that we met.

Turns out he has several aliases.

Nelson Raposo is just one of them.

Spent four years in prison

for fraud.

We've got an APB out on him,

but his phone is disconnected,

and he's not at his home,

in any event.

Charlie claims

he knows nothing about this.

It happens all the time here.

Developers believe

they're funding villas

in partnership with local companies,

getting insider knowledge,

but really, they know all along

that planning won't go through.

One giant con,

leaving guys like Charlie

dealing with the consequences.

Any good news?

Well, they found the van,

burnt out in the north of the city,

but we managed to get prints,

gave us the name Juan Martin.

He's a non-petty criminal for hire,

record as long as your arm.

They've just picked him up

for questioning.

Heard anything from Charlie?

No, sorry. Nothing.

Well, we just have to say a prayer

that Juan will know where Nelson is.

Still no Charlie?

He's cutting it a bit fine.

Jack?

Oh, I'm starving.

HE SIGHS

I should have bought me

HE CHUCKLES

You legend!

My dad used to say,

"Always carry a spare snack.

"That way, if you get stuck out

on the boat longer than anticipated,

"you've got the energy to get back."

Oh.

I think the only advice

my old man ever gave to me

was to become a cop.

Probably because he was one.

I thought you loved

being in the force.

Grew to.

But ever since I was knee-high,

all I ever wanted to do was sing.

Thought I was Elvis, you know,

dancing around, hairbrush in hand.

IMITATING ELVIS: Oh-h*.

THEY CHUCKLE

But in my house, it was always,

"You need to earn

a proper living, son."

Mm.

I think my dad wished I was a boy.

Spent most of my life trying

to prove I was as good as one.

He used to take me out sailing

on the tiniest boat.

HE CHUCKLES

But I made sure

that there wasn't a wind

that I couldn't navigate

or a knot that I couldn't tie.

That's when I felt closest to him.

Just the two of us.

Sound of the ocean.

Sounds like a man

after my own heart.

He died before I became an officer.

Bet he was proud of you anyway.

It's Charlie.

Hm?

Who's that?

JACK GRUNTS,

FIGURE GROANS

Why the hell are you here?

To get the ransom money.

We saw him with Nelson

or whatever his name is.

They planned the whole kidnap

to get it.

And that's how Nelson knew

exactly where to pick up Cecile

from the hen do

because you told him.

Ella said you always follow Cecile

and Charlie round.

And you couldn't bear

that she chose Charlie over you

and you made Charlie pay.

Kate, call the police.

What are youse on?

I met Nelson to get my money back

because I didn't wanna lose

the 20k I invested,

and I gave him a right going over.

But you ended up in the middle

of a ransom handover by accident?

I'm here because he asked me to be.

I'm sorry, mate.

I didn't wanna let you down again.

But I didn't write that.

Then who did?

The money.

SHE GASPS

It's gone.

IN SPANISH:

You think you can be the eyes

and ears needed for a handover?

It could have led us

to where Cecile is.

If we don't get her back

in one piece, this is on your head.

Look, the ransom video

Should have been given to me

the minute you got it.

It's my fault, OK?

Charlie didn't want

to involve the police,

and I asked Jack not to contact you,

so if you are looking for someone

to blame, blame me.

Look, I'll send over the video

right now. Hm?

We'll try and pull CCTV,

but it looks like Nelson's

got away with the money

right under your nose.

They'll release Cecile, won't they?

Now they've got the money.

Well, we hope so,

unless we find her first.

One of the drivers

has given us the exact place

he dropped Cecile and Nelson off.

We've got teams out now

combing the area.

You best get back to the ships

and your yacht.

If you hear anything

Look, I'll call you. Scout's honour.

EVAN: They won't keep Cecile

now you've paid them.

I should've known

that the whole deal

was too good to be true.

Wish I hadn't been so bloody greedy

when Ella suggested

properties abroad.

What, Ella?

She told us she was just across

your UK business.

What? She's across everything.

Been worth her weight in gold since

she started with me four months ago.

Cecile knew instantly,

said she gave the best interview.

So she'll have been in touch

with Nelson?

So much for not knowing him either.

We need to get back to the ship

and find her. Mm.

What are you doing, my friend?

Ella wrote the note.

She got Evan to show up

as a distraction

while she grabbed the cash.

I can't believe

I didn't see this coming.

She could be anywhere by now.

'I just wanna come back to you.

'Don't let me die.'

Hey.

CCTV shows that Ella left the ship

at exactly 11:31,

just enough time to get the cash.

You've watched that,

like, a million times.

Got more flowers

than I can shake a stick at.

The bloody ice swans are melting

and still no signs

of the bill being paid.

I never could stand

Lily of the Valley.

How Cecile wore that for a perfume

every day I'll never know.

Jack.

That scent that I could smell

at the villas,

that wasn't the gardens -

that was Cecile.

Listen to this.

BACKGROUND WHIRRING

ON TAPE

Planes.

I thought we were going to be

together after all this was over?

This was a business

arrangement only.

Plans change.

You can't leave.

Watch me.

Cecile?

Cecile, wait!

Cecile?

Charlie.

I got away.

JACK: Don't believe a word she says.

She's leaving with your money.

But

Ella, what's with you?

I don't understand.

Look, they planned this thing

together back in Dubai.

Saw you as their next target.

They hadn't even met then.

No, they had.

At the hen party, I saw Ella's phone

with a picture of them together

years before you knew

either of them.

And that's why Cecile insisted on

interviewing assistants with you.

Ella was her choice, right?

She set you up, Charlie.

Cecile didn't bump into you

by accident.

It was all carefully planned.

But they hadn't banked on Nelson

fleecing you first.

When they found out on the cruise

you were going to lose everything

on this Palma property deal,

Ella, knowing Nelson

had bribed the water company,

blackmailed him into a kidnap plot.

Ella told him exactly

where the hen do was,

and Cecile invited Kate,

so she had the perfect witness.

We need to get to the restaurant.

CHEERING

THEY SING

'HERE COMES THE BRIDE'

SCREAMING

Cecile was carefully hidden

at the villa,

making sure she wasn't around

when we visited.

Ella then planted suspicion on Evan,

making out like

he was obsessed with Cecile,

using him as a distraction

at the ransom drop-off

so she could

make off with all the cash.

SIRENS APPROACHING

Cecile waiting for Ella

to divvy up all the cash

..and then disappear for good.

Was any of it real?

Did you ever have

any feelings for me at all?

I'm sorry.

Come on, Charlie.

Let's get a drink, mate.

LUCIANA: Nobody is going anywhere.
