(INAUDIBLE)

ANNIE: Are you there?
Can you hear me?

-BANKS:Yes, Annie.
-Rydell's been put
on leave of absence.

Ron McLaughlin's
taking temporary charge,

and he wants a word,
first thing.

-Alan.
-Sir.

Ron.
I've inherited Rydell's
post,
not his attitude, okay?

So,
the Charles McKay shooting.

We've got a surveillance
operation in process

-which I believe
will yield a result.
-Good.

Keep your eye on the ball.

Can't be seen to
be giving priority
to the Emily Rydell inquiry.

DS Cabbot emailed me late
last night with her initial
thoughts on the case.

Very dedicated young woman.
I like that.

I think. Ah, here she is.

Sir.

Okay. Emily Rydell.

In the cubicle where she was
found, the door was
locked from the inside,

which raises questions.

After she was beaten to death,
how did someone escape?

While no one heard anything?

The coroner's
putting time of death
at around 10:00 p.m.

The club was
nearly empty then.

We're trying to
trace Ruth Walker.

Who's she?

A friend of Emily's.

Emily had Ruth
Walker's debit card
on her when she was found,

hence the initial
misidentification.

DCI Banks supplied us
with an address
for her in London.

Superintendent Rydell asked
you to seek out his
daughter in London?

That's correct.

It's not
professionally responsible

for a senior police officer
like you to be doing homers,

is it?

Chief
Superintendent Rydell asked...

Chief Super Rydell
was wrong to ask you,
but you were wrong to accept.

Particularly when
your unit was involved
in a Cat One inquiry.

Now, I trust your personal
involvement won't compromise
this investigation?

No, sir.

I want twice-daily updates.

Sir.

Emily's.
Found it under a seat.

She had Ruth Walker's card
in her makeup bag.

If Emily used her card,
we can trace her movements.

And since the card was found
at a crime scene,

we should be able to access
Ruth Walker's
finances and movements.

-I'll go get a warrant.
-BANKS: Thanks.

Is there anything else
you haven't told me?

-About what?
-You. Emily.

Rydell asked me to find his
daughter. I went to London,
I brought her back.

Yesterday I met her for lunch
at the Midnight
Bell Pub, 1:00.

Emily turned up around 1:20.

She left around 1:25. Okay?

Okay.

ANNIE: So, we're over
witness statements,

re-interviewing anyone
from the nightclub

who we think might
have seen
something suspicious.

Suspects. Ruth Walker.

Now, London reports she hasn't
been seen at her flat since
Thursday morning.

Now, there was bad blood
between Emily and Ruth Walker.

So why did Emily have
Ruth Walker's bank card on her

and how did it come
into her possession?

I guess we have to find
Ruth Walker to get to
the bottom of that one.

Next.

Niall Gilbert. No previous.

Independent
security consultant.
Ex-military, Special Forces.

Emily claimed to have seen him
yesterday in Leeds.

Suspect number three,
Niall Gilbert's employer,
Barry Clough.

Now, you've all got copies
of the profile on Clough.

Emily was shacked up
with him in London briefly.

Now, it's my guess that Emily
knew something
incriminating about him,

so he killed her or
he had her killed.

Who walks into a nightclub,
into the ladies' toilets,

beats someone to death in
a locked cubicle and
walks out unnoticed?

-The invisible man?
-(ALL CHUCKLING)

Forget
the murder mystery stuff!
This happened!

Emily Rydell suffered
a traumatic and painful
death.

Now, there is an explanation,

and we're going to find out
who's responsible

and we're going
to put them away!

Okay? Let's get to it.

Boss. Tony Grimes.
Surveillance
and ARVs in place.

One for the team, DS Cabbot.

Big bowl of humble pie.

(SIGHS)

Thank you.

After further investigation,
we're fully satisfied

that you were not involved in
the unlawful
killing of Charles McKay.

So you're free to go.

Okay. Thanks.

Sir?

Alan.

Shouldn't you be at home
with your family, sir?

The Emily Rydell case.

Do we have a cause of death?

You know I can't
discuss that, sir.

You seen this man hanging
around your house
the last couple of days?

Maybe hanging around Emily?

When she got back from London,

did she mention
someone called Barry Clough?

No. Are these people suspects?
Was she murdered?

Please, Alan. I need to know.
Did somebody kill her?

I can't discuss that.

Rosalind seems
to have left me.

I'm sorry to hear that, sir.

Emily was
the smiliest little baby.

She was always laughing.

You do anything
for your kids, don't you?

There's no limits.

Come inside.

I'll ring for a taxi.

KEN: (ON RADIO)
In position at
Tony Grimes' lockup.

Here we go, taxi.

Eyes on target.
Repeat, eyes on target.

Entering storage facility.

Eyes on target,
he's got some sort of
package.

Eyes on target.
Target exiting
storage facility.

All units stand by.

Silver Mercedes appears
to be following target.

Tracking both vehicles.

MAST team, all units.
Target now on plot.

Target now on plot.

No sign of the silver Merc.
Do you think we've
been compromised?

Uh-uh.
We're still in business.

Target vehicle two
turning into courtyard,

target vehicle two
entering courtyard.

That's Niall Gilbert.

Now, we need to
wait until he's inside.
We need them both together.

ANNIE:ARV on standby,
wait until subject is inside.

-Now!
-ANNIE:Strike! Strike!

All units, strike!

Listen,
I were going to return this.

It were Charlie's idea.
He made me do it.

He made me.

(OFFICERS SHOUTING)

-Down on the floor,
down on the floor!
-Get down, get down!

OFFICER 1: Keep looking at me!

OFFICER 1: Room secure.
OFFICER 2: Room secure.

Come on, mate.

(CLICKING TONGUE)

You?

Me.

My money.

Won it on the horses.

Lots of small bets.

Tony's a mate.

Been looking after it for me.

Eh, Tony?

Get 'em processed.

ANNIE: Tony.

ANNIE: So, Niall Gilbert,
is he in town to
kill Tony Grimes?

If he is, that makes him
the prime suspect

in the murder
of Charlie McKay.
But he's also employed

by Emily
Rydell's ex-boyfriend,
Barry Clough.

Whether Emily was the victim
of a random attack

or a motive-driven murder,

she knew
something incriminating
about Barry Clough.

Is that it?
Is that the connection?

She knew Clough had
Charlie McKay executed?

Ken, still no weapon
in the Charlie McKay case?

No, boss.

All right.

We've got to
make these two talk.

BANKS: You were here in Leeds
the day Emily Rydell was
beaten to death.

She saw you.

A, I don't know
who Emily Rydell is.

And B, I was back in London.

Was Emily a threat?

Did she know who
killed Charlie McKay?

Who?

Last Wednesday night,
when Charlie
McKay was murdered,

where were you?

I don't remember.

I get these blackouts,
you see.

Post-traumatic
stress disorder.

It's all in my
military records.

You're good.
You know the drill.

But your mate Tony,
he's an amateur.

It's just
a matter of time, Niall.

You and Charlie staged
the hijack of your van.

You took
a couple of hefty smacks
in front of witnesses

to convince
the cops and criminals
it was all genuine.

Then Charlie got killed.

And you wanted us to think
that it was you
who'd killed him,

so we'd keep you
in custody to protect you

from the people
you and Charlie ripped off.

I'm right, aren't I?

This money you
and Charlie stole,

who does it belong to?

No, I... I can't.

Come on, Tony.

Twenty-five grand
in here, your share?
25 grand to Charlie?

That's a lot of money. Whose?

No, I-I-I can't. I...

All right,
interview suspended,
10:14, for a comfort break.

All right, Tony,
we're off the record now.

Off camera.

So, whose money?

Tony!

Barry Clough.

Right.

Listen, it was stupid what
me and Charlie did,
really stupid.

trying to rip off Clough.

We need you to go
on record, Tony.

No, no way.

I'll point you in
the right direction

but I'm not
testifying against Clough.
No chance.

Two people are dead
and we've got nothing.

We need you to talk.

We need you to be a man
and do the right thing.

Come on, Tony.
We'll keep you safe.

You didn't keep Charlie safe.

How did Clough know that
Charlie nicked his money, eh?

ANNIE: He's right.

The only people who knew
Charlie had
hijacked the van were us.

Someone inside this
building leaked it.

-Computer Crimes Unit.
-(MOBILE RINGING)

Say nothing to anyone.
Report back directly to me.

Speak to you later.

-Yes?
-It's Rosalind.

What can I get you, sir?

Double espresso, please.

So is this where
you're staying now?

I had to get away from Gerry,
so I came here.

Who cares?

Sir.

It was you rather than your
husband who wanted me to
look for Emily.

Why?

It was like he didn't want
to rock the boat or something.

I see.

Did Emily tell you anything
about what happened in London?

I thought she'd tell
me in her own time.

I didn't know she had
so little time left.

Did she tell her dad?

No, I don't think so.

She was different with Gerry
when she came back.

She was distant.

Look, it's not my place,
but maybe you shouldn't...

If I sober up, I'll die.

Some of the papers

are saying she
was beaten to death.

Rosalind.

Who killed her, Alan?

I have to go.

(DOOR OPENS)

-DS Cabbot?
-Yeah.

So, here is
the Charles McKay case.

What do you want to know?

Right. I need
the details of everyone

who accessed the crime report
database on this case.

-Names, dates, times.
-Mmm-hmm.

Print out
everything you've got.

(INAUDIBLE)

BARRY: Good stuff, Judy.

That's it.

(LAUGHS)

Mr Clough.

DCI Banks,
Yorkshire Major Crimes Unit.

Welcome to Leeds.

Had a feeling you were a cop.

And if you're here
to talk about Misty...

Emily. Emily Rydell.

Whatever.
Given you a statement.
I was in London all week.

Witnesses and everything.

Ditto Niall.

But we're not holding Niall
on suspicion of
killing Emily Rydell.

We're holding Niall
on suspicion of
killing Charlie McKay.

Mate of one of your employees,
Tony Grimes?

Your cash courier
till his van got
hijacked by Charlie McKay,

who was subsequently executed.

Who was it told you
it was Charlie
who ripped you off?

I don't know what
you're talking about.

Did you know that
Emily was the daughter
of a senior police officer?

She was Misty Martin to me.

Like I said,
short for Mysterious.

Beautiful

but disposable.

The wheels are
coming off, Barry.

Just a matter of time.

Well.

I'm so sorry about Emily.

But listen, Mum.
I'm here for you, okay?

Don't!

Okay.

It's okay.

I don't want you!

-BARMAN:
Mrs Rydell, stop that!
-(RUTH EXCLAIMS)

Get off her!
I'm calling the police.

Go away!

(RUTH CHOKING)

Go away!

(SOBBING)

Sir, we're keeping Ruth Walker
in for questioning.

She's given us an alibi
for the night of
Emily Rydell's murder.

Queens Hotel bar all night.

All right. Check it out.

But even if it holds up,
she's still has to explain

her bank card at
the crime scene.

Well, that tells
its own story, boss.

She made a cash withdrawal
last Saturday afternoon.

Which places her in Leeds
on the day of the murder.

Ruth lived in Ripponden
for six months last year.

What,
where Emily went to school?

Also, background check.

Turns out Ruth
used to work in a bar
owned by Barry Clough.

(SIGHS)

That, and Ruth doesn't want
to press charges
against Mrs Rydell.

Quote, "My mum's been
through enough," unquote.

What?

You're Ruth Walker's mother?

Uh...

(SIGHS)

I gave her up for adoption
when I was 17.

I told her I didn't want
a relationship with her.

She's been stalking me.

Trying to destroy my family.

She's vicious, Alan.

Vicious and manipulative.
She is capable of anything.

You talked Emily
into moving to London?

Yes.

You introduced
Emily to Barry Clough?

Yeah.

-Did you tell Clough
who she really was?
-Oh, yes.

Boss, I've got the printouts
from the Computer Crimes Unit.

-Is it bad?
-Yeah.

(GROANS) Oh, shit!

-Yes?
-Boss,

you're both needed
at Emily's postmortem.
It's urgent.

Thanks.

I still don't see it.

Ruth Walker got
into the cubicle
and beat Emily to death?

You don't see it because Emily
was not beaten to death.

Cause of death
was asphyxiation,
caused by the paralysis

of the neural pathways
that control breathing.

All this trauma
was caused by violent
contact with the surroundings.

The walls of the cubicle,
the cistern, the floor.

If you look here,

you can see that
she was thrashing around.

Violently and uncontrollably.

Some kind of fit?

-She's epileptic?
-No.

Toxicology and chemical
analysis confirm

that Emily Rydell
died of a seizure
caused by poisoning.

Somebody adulterated
her cocaine with strychnine.

ANNIE: Strychnine. Difficult
but not
impossible to get hold of.

Used in animal research
into anti-seizure drugs,

pest control products.
Vets administer
as a stimulant,

sometimes used in alcoholism.
Dr Glendinning is
compiling a full list.

Poisoning.

This wasn't some spontaneous
attack by a random madman.

It was a deliberate,
pre-meditated,
motive-driven murder,

from a distance,
which nullifies
any suspect's alibi.

I'm listening.

So we start again.

Suspects one and two,
Niall Gilbert
and Barry Clough.

Emily knew something

that she shouldn't have known
about their operation,

so they took her out.

Suspect number three,
Ruth Walker.

We know she was in Leeds
on the day of the murder.

Did she meet with Emily
and spike her cocaine

as vengeance on the mother
who rejected her?

And now we have
a fourth suspect.

Chief
Superintendent Gerald Rydell.

Go on.

Barry Clough was using
Emily as leverage,

blackmailing, bleeding Rydell
for information.

-You got hard
evidence on that?
-Yes.

Rydell's electronic footprint.

This was what Emily knew.

This was Barry
Clough's little secret,

that he was involved in
a criminal conspiracy with
a senior police officer,

Emily's father.

The dates.
It starts three months ago,

about the same time that
Ruth Walker introduced Emily
to Barry Clough.

Rydell had the motive
and he had the opportunity.

We can't ignore this.

We're already
holding Niall Gilbert
and Ruth Walker.

First thing,
I want Barry Clough
brought in for questioning.

And Rydell.

Okay. Bright and
early tomorrow morning,

fully briefed,
with all our plans in place,

we're going to
blitz the lot of them
until somebody cracks.

-Lot at stake here, Alan.
-I'm not enjoying this,
sir.

EMILY:Alan.

-I'll get them over to you.
-Yeah.

(TALKING INDISTINCTLY)

We've got a lot of issues
to sort out here, Gerry.

So we'd appreciate
your full cooperation.

Absolutely, Ron.

I want to put
this whole nonsense
to bed as much as you do.

Copies of our
intelligence database
going back three months.

As you well know,

we led a series of
well-planned,
intelligence-led
drug bust operations

which resulted in no arrests,
no illegal substances,
nothing.

Why?

Because someone
informed the dealers
that we were coming.

You left footprints, sir.

I do have level three access.

Unusual for a Chief Super
to be surfing
the Intelligence database.

Performance
indicators were worrying me.

Drug arrests had dropped
by 31% year on year,

prosecutions by 35%,
I wanted to find out why.

The van hijacking.

How did Barry
Clough know that it was
Charlie McKay who robbed him?

Because you
accessed the crime report
which clearly stated

that the fingerprints
that were lifted

from the hijacked van
belonged to Charlie McKay.

Fourteen hours later,
he was executed.

I'm senior management.

I like to keep a check
on my subordinates.

CLOUGH: Emily Rydell...
Emily Rydell...

I don't know anyone
called Emily Rydell.

You were introduced
to her by Ruth Walker.

Who?

She told you who
Emily really was.

We had a fling,
short but sweet.
That's it.

And I'll say it again,
I was in London all last
week.

What do you mean, my alibi
doesn't count?
I didn't do this.

You've got a lot of
explaining to do, Ruth.

What was your bank
card doing in there?

Well, Emily stole it.

(SCOFFS)

No, no. Look.

Look, that's my makeup bag.

And my bank card was in there.

What? What is it?

Okay, Ruth.
I need an honest answer here.

The cocaine Emily was using,
it was yours,
she stole it from you?

We're going to need
that verbally, Ruth.

Yes.

Emily or Misty or whatever

could've been
carrying the coke
around for weeks, months.

Anyone could have
spiked her coke at any time.

So unless you can actually
find my fingerprints
on the strychnine,

you're going nowhere with this
and you know it.

And you're
running out of time.

RYDELL: Last week,
when Emily was returned home,

when you brought her home,

did you know
she was in danger?

Because if you did,
you should have warned me.

I did try to warn you!

-I could have done
something about it.
-You didn't want to know.

You'd got Emily
back and you wanted
to bury the whole thing

because you didn't want to
rock the boat
with Barry Clough.

You're becoming emotional,
Alan.

Last Saturday,

did you know that Emily
had cocaine in her makeup bag?

Cocaine that was adulterated
with strychnine?

You think...

I'm here because you think
I killed my child?

Emily knew about your
relationship with Clough.

She didn't want to tell me
about it because she
wanted to protect you.

-Because she loved you!
-I loved her.

Oh, I know.
You'd do anything
for her, wouldn't you?

No limits, eh?

But Clough played on that.

You didn't want
your little girl
being dragged into his world,

topless pictures that
turned your stomach.

And then what, porn?
God knows what else!

So, to protect your daughter,
you started to feed
Clough information,

including the name of the man
who robbed him, Charlie McKay.

And that's
the undisputed truth,
isn't it?

DCI Banks has
always envied me,
undermined me at every turn.

I asked him to do
a favour for me,
in good faith.

And he uses it
as an opportunity
to attack me and my family.

-This is bollocks!
-Emotional again, Alan.

My daughter is
a murder victim.

With this man leading
the inquiry into her death,

I don't see how myself or my
wife will ever get
justice or closure.

Doesn't look good, Ron.

Wouldn't happen on my watch.

-Where's your conscience?
-Where's yours?

I saw how Emily kissed you.

You were having
sexual relations
with her, weren't you?

Is that the best
that you've got?

Outside.

He's trying to derail
this investigation,

destroy my
credibility as a witness.

Sexual relations
with his daughter?

What's he talking about?

-Well, sir...
-ANNIE: The Metropole.

I just took a call from
DI Richard Brownlow, London.

The Metropole Hotel,
Bloomsbury, London.
Last Thursday.

The night
porter remembers you.

And he also remembers
Emily Rydell spending
the night in your room.

I'd just rescued Emily from
Barry Clough's,

he was threatening her.

The kid was paralytic.

She had nowhere else to go.

Get yourself off the premises.

She was calling you Daddy.

As a wind-up.

I did not sleep
with Emily Rydell.

Are you sure?
Maybe she was
going to grass you up.

That's why you killed her.
It's a reasonable
assumption to make.

You'd be making the same
assumption if you were in
my shoes, wouldn't you?

You're
the benchmark here, Alan.
I look up to you.

This makes you no better
than me or anyone else.

(SQUEALING)

(SQUEALING)

(EMILY SCREAMING)

EMILY:Alan!

DCI Banks' behaviour has
clearly compromised
this whole inquiry.

I wouldn't go that far.

You have no hard evidence
of direct contact

between Barry
Clough and myself.

You have no hard
evidence to support

this sick idea that
I murdered my child.

I'm ready to go home, Ron.

Rosalind.

I need the keys to your house.

Why?

Because I think...

There is no easy
way to say this.

I think that your husband
may have killed Emily.

Gerry?

-How?
-Strychnine poisoning.

Strychnine?

The rat poison at your house.

I think he may have spiked
Emily's cocaine with it.

Oh, God.

Rosalind?

It...

It was Ruth.

She...

She was telling me
what she'd done to Emily,

how she wouldn't stop until
she's destroyed my family.

What are you trying to say?

The day Emily died,

Ruth came to the house.

She was haunting me

and stalking me.
She was never going to stop.

She kept telling me
about Emily's coke problem

and how she'd got
her into it and...

(SOBBING) Oh, God!

Take your time.

She went to the toilet

and it was right there in
front of me and the rat
stuff
was there and...

and I was angry.

And I mixed the rat poison
with Ruth's cocaine.

I just meant to make her sick.

I didn't...
I didn't think it could
kill.

Alan, please!

Please tell me
that I didn't...

Please tell me I didn't.

Oh, God!

No!

She was... She was my baby.

Alan, please...
Please, Alan...

Tell me I didn't.

I'm sorry. I can't help you.

Rosalind?

Well, talk about justice.

You set out to kill
the daughter you reject

and you end up killing
the daughter you love.

(GIGGLES)

Well,
you pay for your sins, eh?

(LAUGHING)

-It isn't funny.
-Oh, it is.

It is pretty fucking funny.

This isn't funny!

Because you wanted
revenge on Rosalind,

because you lured
Emily to London,

because you introduced her
to Barry Clough,

Because you
rubbed Rosalind's nose
in it, this happened!

You lit the fuse, sat back,
watched the bomb go off.

Not funny, Ruth!

OFFICER: Mr Rydell? Mr Rydell?

(BANGING ON DOOR) Mr Rydell?

Sir!

Mr Rydell?

(COUGHING)

(SIGHS)

Did he leave a note?

Full confession.

Admits he was blackmailed
by Barry Clough,

admits he was part
of the conspiracy
to kill Charlie McKay.

Enough to arrest Clough?
Enough to
arrest Niall Gilbert?

He left tapes.
All his calls to Barry
Clough.

We've got them both.

-Good.
-"The undisputed truth."

What?

That's what he said
at the end of his confession.

"This is
the undisputed truth."

(SIGHS)

You okay?

No good, no evil,

just a bunch of men and women
getting in a mess.

How do you clear it up
when you're part of the mess?

That night at the hotel with
Emily, I know you
didn't sleep with her.

You probably sat up all night
listening to your
crappy jazz music.

But I couldn't bury it.

Do you know why?

Because if I did,
I'd be letting you down.

You're still my benchmark.

You always will be.
