No, no, no, no, no, no. f*cking

You need to think, baby.

- We've been f*cking caning it, yeah?
- Yeah.

And I... [STAMMERS]

This is prison, yeah? A
f*cking instant prison.

I've got f*ck knows how much
drink in me, I f*cking hit a guy.

Now, they will put me in the
cell. I'm the driver, they'll fu...

They'll put me in a cell
and f*cking keep me there.

- That's what they'll f*cking...
- We can't just leave him here.

- Shut the f*ck up, Mia! Shut...
- And just leave him here in the road?!

I need to f*cking think, OK?
[WHIMPERS] I need to think.

f*ck!

[ROB STAMMERING] OK, there's,
there's a lake over there.

And there's a sleeping bag in the
boot. You keep an eye on the road!

- No.
- [ROB] Keep an eye on the road!

No.

No!

- [ROB] Mia.
- Don't.

Mia, come on. Get the

[MIA RETCHES]

I need more f*cking rocks.

[SNIFFS]

Just put a pile, put
the f*cking pile there.

- [ROCKS CRUNCH]
- [ROB] Put the pile...

[PANTING] Close it up. Close it
up. Close his head. Close his head.

[ROB] Three...

two...

one.

[WATER SPLASHES]

[MIA] Um, it's an honor
to be speaking here today

amongst such impressive company.

Uh, I'm thrilled to have been shared...

I'm thrilled to have been asked

to share my vision of
the future, such as it is.

Looking around at a world
of injustice, intolerance

and huge environmental challenges,

it's hard to imagine a bright
future, but we can and we must.

It's the only way that we
can build a better tomorrow.

[MIA] Um...

So I'll start with a funny story.

[COMPUTER MOUSE CLICKS]

[KEYS JANGLING]

- [SOFT ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
- [MIA] Right. I'm off.

Bye-bye. [KISSES]

[MAN WHISTLING]

- See you later on.
- [MIA] See you tomorrow.

OK.

- [MIA] Have a nice day.
- You too.

- Bye, Mom!
- There we go.

- [CHAIN RATTLES]
- Hiya, puppy.

[BARKING CONTINUES]

One moment.

- Coming!
- [SNIFFS]

Just a second!

- Mrs. Carmichael?
- Yes?

I'm here on behalf of Realm Insurance.

Just need to log your
recollections about the accident.

- Am I all right to come in?
- Uh, OK then.

[DOOR CLOSES]

[MAN] Someone who has risen to become

one of the most innovative
architects of her generation.

Not just an architect of
buildings, but communities.

But enough of me telling you about
her. Please welcome Mia Nolan.

[APPLAUSE]

Thank you, Martin. Thanks. It's
an honor to be speaking here

amongst such impressive company.

[PIZZA VAN BEEPS]

[AUTOMATED VOICE] Good evening,
welcome to Fences Pizza.

Your pizza is ready for collection.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

[MIA] Hello?

- [ROB] It's me.
- Hey. Hey.

- Did your chin catch Dutch fur disease?
- [ROB] Yeah, f*ck you.

[LAUGHS]

I didn't say I didn't like it. Come in.

What's it been? It's been
like two years now, hasn't it?

Uh, three.

Dropping in on my hotel
room, it must be important.

- Shall we find somewhere to eat?
- Yeah, well, I...

I got in touch 'cause I
saw that you were in town

for what is it, some,
some architecture thing?

It's a forum, they call it.

People actually pay to come
and listen to me talk. [SCOFFS]

Imagine that.

Almost does my head in. [LAUGHS]

And you're looking
good. Is that the gym?

Well, you look...

I look like dog sh*t, Mia.
I'll save you the bother.

Dried-up dog sh*t.

- [MIA] Do you want a drink?
- I knocked it on the head.

What, you quit, like fully quit?

[ROB] Nine months,
three weeks, two days.

Well done. Well, that's great.

You go ahead.

- Really, go on.
- You sure?

- Absolutely.
- OK.

[MIA] You picked a terrible place

to come see me 'cause it reeks of hops

all the way down the
street outside here.

- Did you notice that?
- [ROB] No.

- [MIA] It's like a full-on beer smell.
- [BOTTLE OPENING, FIZZING]

Can't help your sobriety, that.

But I probably shouldn't be talking
about booze, should I? [SIGHS]

Rob, I hope you're not
here to talk about what I...

It's about that, yeah.

I've been thinking about
it again, that night.

- [MIA] Rob.
- I can't not think about it.

We said that we'd put
it out of our minds.

Weren't we just gonna
try and keep it out?

[ROB] I can't. I'm sorry.

It was a long time ago.

Well, in here, it's now.

Yeah, I know.

Why today? Why is it
preying on your mind today?

- [ROB] There's a news story.
- A news story?

[PAPER RUSTLES]

Uh, a featured article.
Well, whatever you call it.

[STAMMERS] I printed it for you.

Mia?

That... That's her. It's his wife.

- You don't know that's his wife.
- There is a photo of him at the bottom.

It's him.

And the poor c**t, they never found him.

So she never remarried.

She never f*cking moved house.

She stayed where she
is in case he came back.

All this time, Mia, she's
still waiting for him.

That's dreadful. But what can we do?

I'm gonna write her a letter.

- No.
- Anonymous.

- I am not gonna mention you.
- Rob, no.

You'll open up God knows what,
you'll just rake it all up.

- [STAMMERS] I can't live with it, Mia.
- There's things they can do.

'Cause they can trace it back.

They can trace it. They'll
find the body, they'll find us.

- They won't find us.
- Yes, they will, then we're f*cked.

Look, when I quit alcohol,

they told me to make amends
with anyone I've ever hurt.

Who have I hurt more than her?

Also say you're not supposed to
hurt anyone else. What about me?

- What about her?
- No, no, no.

No.

No! f*ck!

[EXHALES, WHIMPERS]

It was your idea. It
was your f*cking idea!

- [ROB] I know. I know, and I'm sorry.
- [SOBS]

Fifteen years, 15 years, the
f*cking shame, the f*cking guilt!

I've got somewhere. I've got a life.
You don't know, don't understand.

[ROB] That's not the point, though.

- You don't understand.
- [SCOFFS]

You're not married. I've got
a son. He's nine years old.

You've seen photos of
him. Think of him, please.

I'm sorry.

[ROB SIGHS]

I sat on this for you.

- I f*cking sat on this for you!
- I'm sorry. I'm sorry!

Hey, look at me.

[SNIFFLES]

[SIGHS]

Look at me.

I've made up my mind,
and that's how it is.

Please, please, please.

Please, please, please, Rob. Hey,
listen, I understand. I understand.

Do you?

Yeah. Come on, let's talk about this.

No, no, I can't stay here.

- [MIA] No, no, no, no.
- What are you doing? Let go!

Mia, I'm f*cking leaving.

[ROB] What are you doing?

Mia, let the... Mia, let the
f*ck... Let the f*ck... go!

- Ah, you don't like him.
- Oh, it's not that.

- It's so hard to get presents for you.
- No, I like him. He's... fluffy. [LAUGHS]

Exactly. No, Ali's gonna love him.

It's just we've got a lot
going on, what with Ali and...

I'll take him back. The pet shop
guy was OK. It won't be a problem.

No, no, no, no, you're
right. It'll be good for Ali.

Codger stays.

- He's... Codger the lodger.

Yeah, I'm back in the morning.

I'm just tired, that's all.

Um...

Did he? Oh, that's great.

No, don't put him on.

[SIGHS]

Hi, hey.

Hey, Dad said you were great
in your rehearsal for your play.

You had a good rehearsal?
Yeah, I'm proud of you.

Yeah.

You... you watched
a film last night, no?

Yeah. I was in last night, yeah.

[CARD READER BLEEPS]

Thanks.

- Thank you.
- [ELEVATOR DINGS]

[ALARM BLARES IN DISTANCE]

[KNOCKING]

I'm from Realm Insurance,
about the pizza van accident.

[MAN] Oh, come in.

[WOMAN] I mean,

it'll cover you for up to four months,

but that is quite a substantial claim.

Well, I was heading off on tour
with the Philharmonic next week.

Europe, Middle East, Australia.

- Not now.
- Mm.

As I'm sure you appreciate,
with a payout of this size,

- we will need to investigate the accident.
- Yeah, of course.

Now, that stretch of the street
has a security camera, vandalized,

by some kids, I'm guessing,
paintballed right in the wrong place.

But the, um...

delivery van thing must've had a camera.

- Not working.
- Oh, for God's sake.

No, that's actually good for your
claim. Fences Pizza's a big company.

They've been claiming their
driverless fleet has a good record.

[MAN SCOFFS]

The malfunctioning camera,
that's a step toward negligence.

So if we can prove full liability,
you could also consider filing

a substantial civil case
under our litigation wing?

Could be a lot of money.

Yeah, OK, I'm sold.

Great. [CHUCKLES]

Now, I'll just hook you up

- to the recaller here.
- [WHIRRING]

- [MAN] It's one of those memory dredgers?
- [BLEEPS]

[WOMAN LAUGHS] We
prefer "corroborators."

- [MAN] Police things, aren't they?
- Mm... Not since last year.

We all have them now.

Right.

- May I?
- Yeah.

- [MAN] I feel like a specimen.
- [LAUGHS]

[SUCTIONS, BLEEPS]

[WOMAN] So, this accesses engrams,
your memories of what happened.

Now, they're subjective.

They may not be totally accurate,
and they're often emotional,

but by collecting a
range of recollections

from yourself and any witnesses,

we can help build a corroborative
picture of the whole.

[MAN] I don't remember
anything. It's a total blank.

Oh, I've got something that might help.

[MAN] What, getting drunk?

The accident happened

a few hundred meters from
the Castle Port Brewery.

[BOTTLE FIZZES]

The whole area smells like a pub.

No sipping, just take a sniff.

Aroma's a great memory
boost, helps anchor you

- to where you were.
- [SNIFFS]

Oh... that's familiar.

OK. Now, hold that smell in your mind,

close your eyes and picture the street.

[MAN EXHALES]

[BLEEPING, WHIRRING]

[WOMAN] Getting something now.

- Yeah. I went to a sort of comic shop...
- [STATIC WHIRRING]

[MAN] Culty stuff. Um...

I think it started
snowing when I came out.

Heavy snow, um...

There was music from a car.

- [BLEEPING]
- ["ANYONE WHO KNOWS WHAT LOVE IS" PLAYING]

I like that song.

[MAN] There was a woman in a
yellow coat coming towards me.

[WOMAN] Good recall on her face.

She had this weird
lipstick on. It stood out.

And she's pretty.

- [MUSIC CONTINUES]
- Um, yeah, yeah, and that, too.

Well, the more emotional your response,

the more vivid your memory of it is.

So there was the music and a
girl, and then what happened?

[MAN] Well, I went to cross the road,

wasn't really thinking about anything,

- and, uh...
- [CAR SCREECHING]

And that's just when it just goes. Um...

That's OK. What you've
given me is already useful.

- [MAN] Really?
- [VIDEO REWINDS]

[WOMAN] Well, I've got someone to
look for, Little Miss Yellow Coat.

- Hey.
- [MAN] Ah, the wanderer returns.

- Yeah.
- You don't know how to fix this, do you?

Um, yeah, I'll have a look at it later.

- [BOY] Hi, Mom.
- [MIA] Hi, you.

system for the backing tracks

that they can't work out
and I said I'd help them out.

So... I'm gonna be there all day.

You're gonna die of
loneliness here, are you?

[MIA] Yeah, I'll be fine.

[MAN] Well, we'll see you later, 7:30.

- [MIA] Mm-hmm.

and the stronger the memory,
the stronger the case.

I'll also just get you
to take a sniff of this.

- [BOTTLE FIZZES]
- [LAUGHS]

[LAUGHS] God knows what they
think we're doing in here.

[LAUGHS]

If you close your eyes, I'm
also gonna play a piece of music.

["ANYONE WHO KNOWS

God, yeah, yeah, that, that was on.

How weird.

Hold those things in your
mind and picture what you saw.

- [MUSIC CONTINUES]
- [SNIFFING]

I was on Stanhope Road,
near the hotel place,

looking at flats and stuff,
you know, window shopping.

I saw this guy walking towards me.

I remember thinking he
looked sort of sweet.

The music was coming from
the car, which pulled off.

Actually that was when the
delivery thing drove past.

[STATIC BUZZING]

Fences Pizza? What sort
of speed was it going?

You mean, was it going too fast?

Um...

- Try and focus on the vehicle.
- Maybe.

- [WOMAN] Um...
- [BLEEPING]

[SIGHS] Um...

I don't know. I couldn't really say.

What about the impact itself?

Well, I didn't really see it. I
just saw the aftermath, really.

[CRASHING, MAN SCREAMING]

- [VIDEO BLEEPS]
- [CONTROLLER CLICKS]

[SCREAMING REPLAYS]

[VIDEO BLEEPS]

A moment earlier you saw a bright light?

Yeah. Like a camera flash just before.

Just outside the dentist place.

- [RECALLER BEEPS]
- Hmm.

[SCRUBBING]

[DOORBELL BUZZES]

[WOMAN] And I'm assuming your
window glazing's soundproof.

- [DENTIST] Yes, we get the odd screamer.
- I won't bother with the music then.

Look, to be honest, the
memory's a bit embarrassing...

- Don't worry, I've seen it all.
- Do you have to use that thing?

Look, your memories will
be sealed and private.

Unless they indicate you're
harming yourself or another person.

Go on then.

[SUCTIONS, BLEEPING]

[SIGHS]

[RECALLER BLEEPING]

[CRUNCHES ON CANDY]

[STATIC BLEEP]

[DENTIST] I'd had a patient.

Hmm, so I see.

[DENTIST] She left around six, I think.

I stayed to clear up.

You saw something from the window?

[DENTIST SIGHS]

There was a guy in the hotel window.

Well, what can I say?

[DENTIST] He was picturesque.

[CONTROLLER CLICKING]

[WOMAN] Did you take a photo?

- [CANDY CRUNCHING]
- [DENTIST] Well, I tried to.

I left the flash on by mistake,
so all I got was the reflection.

[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS]

- [WOMAN] And then?
- I was going to take another one.

I saw some woman staring at something.

So I looked down, it was
just a load of commotion.

[DENTIST] There was a woman
in a sort of lime coat.

[CRUNCHING] Hmm, yellow actually.

- [DENTIST] Well, I knew it was vivid.
- Well, memories can be subjective.

What we do is build
up an overall average,

a crowd-sourced picture of reality.

[RECALLER BLEEPS]

Did you see the vehicle
that hit the pedestrian?

Any sense of its speed?

I didn't see the actual crash, sorry.

[BEEPING, WHIRRING]

OK. [EXHALES]

- You won't tell anyone about the photo?
- [RECALLER BLEEPS]

Don't need to put that in my report.

It's safe with me.

[HOTEL CLERK] That'd be room 304.

Can you tell me who stayed there?

- You're not the police?
- No, but...

Then you'd have to lodge for
an information request for that.

But that could take up
to a week to process.


Sorry, management's an ass
about it ever since that thing

with what's-his-name, the
judge of Hot sh*ts?

Anyway, he got caught with a rent
boy and, um, a tabloid got his name

by hacking our booking system, and yeah,

they're tight as anything
about the rule now.

Oh, the woman I'm after
hasn't done anything.

I just think she might
have seen something outside

yesterday evening about 6:30.

Oh, I can...

I can tell you that
she wasn't outside...

and I know what she was looking at.

[GENTLE SCOFF] How so?

I can't tell you who she is but,
um, she's into interesting films.

We log the in-house movies
that people watch and, um...

her choice stood out.

Oh. [LAUGHS]

- How nice for her. Thanks.
- [LAUGHS]

[SEAGULLS SQUAWKING OUTSIDE]

[COMPUTER BLEEPS]

Oh, bless you.

[MAN] How's the pizza accident going?

[WOMAN] Hmm. A pain in the ass.

Can't pinpoint liability

'cause no one agrees on the
speed of the bloody thing

and I can't find anyone
who actually saw the impact.

Well, not yet.

[SIGHS]

Except maybe smudge face
here, whoever she is.

- [COMPUTER BLEEPS]
- [WOMAN] Oh, bingo.

Mia Nolan. You might be
the one, if you'll talk.

What, if she'll talk?

She was doing something
embarrassing in the hotel room,

watching a p*rn film.

She might not want me
poking around in her head.

[MAN CHUCKLES]

She's, like, 50 miles out of town.
Do you mind if I head there now?

It's a bit late.

Oh, if I sew this up in 24
hours, I get two times bonus.

Well...

Go. Go.

Hi, I'm Shazia. I'm
from Realm Insurance.

- I've already got insurance, thanks.
- [SHAZIA] I'm not selling anything.

I'm following up on an incident
you might've seen, a road accident.

I don't know anything about an accident.

[SHAZIA] This was only yesterday.

- [MIA] An accident?
- On Stanhope Road.

Medina Plaza Hotel, a pedestrian
was hit by a delivery vehicle,

Fences Pizza, driverless.

Um... [LAUGHS]

Right, yeah. I'm sorry, actually I did.

When you first mentioned it,

I just didn't think of
it, but um... yeah, I did.

So you saw what happened?

[MIA] Uh, yeah, there was
a guy crossing the street

and this little van thing sort
of just clipped him, it was quick.

[SHAZIA] Do you mind if I ask
you a few questions about it?

It won't take long.

I'm sorry, I'm really busy. I've got...

[SHAZIA] I don't wanna sound heavy

but it's a legal
requirement since last year.

It's a legal requirement?

Well, if you've witnessed
an incident, yes.

I have to notify the
police when people refuse,

and when they get involved, it
just drags everything out, so...

[MIA CLEARS THROAT]

- Come in.
- [SIGHS] Thank you.

Yeah, just that way.

[RECALLER f*ring UP]

[BEEPING]

[SHAZIA] OK.

- What does that do?
- [SHAZIA] The recaller?

Just helps me get a
record of what happened.

May I?

Well, I can just tell you
what happened. I can remember.

The van hit the guy, and he fell
over, and then people came to help.

[SHAZIA] How fast was it going
though, the delivery vehicle?

Um...

[SHAZIA] See, I just
need a sense of that.

It's sometimes hard to articulate
what your mind's eye's seen,

but capturing your impression
of what you saw is really useful.

- OK, but I've got...
- And that's all I'm interested in.

You can read the terms here if you like.

All the legal stuff is in there.

Look, I don't care what
you might've been doing

in the hotel room in your own time.

I'm not gonna ask you anything
about that. Won't go there.

- OK.
- [SHAZIA] Private stuff is private stuff.

- So it's just the accident?
- Just that.

[MIA] It's a bit of
a long read, isn't it?

[SHAZIA LAUGHS]

- Do you want a tea or a coffee?
- Oh, a coffee would be great.

- Yeah, OK. Espresso?
- Perfect.

[COFFEE MACHINE WHIRS]

Do you mind if I just go and have a pee

if I'm gonna be sat down a while?

- [SHAZIA] Yeah, sure.
- OK.

I ate hotel food, I had room service.

I ate room service.

I was in the hotel room on my own.

Watched p*rn.

Watched p*rn.

Saw the accident.

Come on, focus. [BREATHES HEAVILY]

I was on my own.

I was on my own.

I was on my own.

you in your hotel room.

[MIA] The f*cking shame,
the f*cking guilt...

- [STATIC NOISE]

Well, that's... great.

Got what I needed on
the van, so, I'll be off.

OK.

[SHAZIA] That's it. [CHUCKLES]

- So you've got everything you needed?
- Yeah.

Doesn't take long, it's just a
simple thing with the speed so...

- [MIA] Right.
- Yeah. Yeah.

[MIA] Sorry about being
short, it's been a long day.

- No, it's fine.
- Got a lot of work on. Did you...

- So you've got everything you needed?
- [SHAZIA] Yeah, yeah, got it all.

- Don't worry, thank you so much.
- I know this sounds silly,

but, um, you know, sometimes
I just think mad things,

and it doesn't mean anything,

do you know what I mean? When
you have strange thoughts.

No, it's fine, like I said. I
got what I needed, so thank you.

Yeah, but do you know what I mean?
It's not like... it's just my head.

[CAR ENGINE MOANS]

[SHAZIA] Come on!

[ENGINE MOANS]

No.

[MIA] I'm sorry, um...

[MIA] Um...

I f*cked up, and I panicked.

[SHAZIA WHIMPERS]

Does your head hurt?

OK.

- [WHIMPERS]
- [MIA] OK.

[SOBBING]

What am I gonna do with you?

[SOBBING INCREASES]

I mean, I can't let you go.

You're gonna tell someone, aren't you?

[MUFFLED SOUNDS]

I know, but even if you say you won't,

your recollections are all recorded.

- [MUFFLED] I won't.
- They're not?

[SHAZIA SOBBING] No.

If I take that off your mouth,
will you promise not to scream?

- Do you promise?
- [WHIMPERS]

Forget the report. I'll delete...

[SNIFFS] I'll delete
it, it won't go anywhere.

I don't know. I tried to delete
it, and I couldn't figure it out.

I won't say anything to anyone, I
promise. I'll forget the whole thing.

[CRYING] No one will
know. I won't say anything.

I wish I believed you.

I mean it. I mean it. I've seen things.

I've seen things on the recaller.

Secrets, personal things,
I've never spilled any of it.

I'm not allowed to, it's the law.

It's like confession, it's
like Catholic confession.

It'll be illegal for me to say anything.

Totally illegal, even if I wanted to!

None of that's true, is it?

- It is, I swear.
- [MIA] It's not.

It is.

Did you tell anyone that
you were coming here today?

No.

- You're lying.
- I'm not. I swear I'm not lying.

[SHAZIA SOBS] No, I swear.

[MUFFLED] I swear. No!

No!

upstairs and this downstairs.

Poor fucker was born blind apparently.

So I have to say, I have absolutely
no idea who I'm looking for.
