-She killed him.
-You're referring to?

Harper Fenn.

It's a video of Harper waving
her hands about looking angry.

-That could mean anything.
-Are you kidding me?

Is that supposed
to be me casting a spell?

Harper is not a witch.

She's been certified
as non-magical by the Moot.

The drunken stumble, breaks
neck theory looks unlikely.

The one thing we can rule out
is magic

if we bring in
an M.I., magical investigator.

My son's life for your
daughter's innocence.

Ah...

Good morning,
Mrs. Whithall.

Hi, Amy!
How's it going?

Okay, so you still won't
answer my calls.

Look, I...

didn't want it to come to this,
but if you won't help me,

well, don't say
I didn't warn you.

Hello, Sanctuary Reporter,

how can I help you?

Beryl Varley, please.

- What is that?
- A satanic pentagram.

- Has this happened before?
- No.

But I tend to keep
a low profile,

as do most witches.

So, I take it you've
no idea who did this?

None.

While I'm here,
I don't suppose Harper's--

No, um, and I don't know
when she'll be back home.

No doubt you have your
own views on parenting,

but in the witch
community,

we don't keep
our kids on a leash.

I see that.

Hello?

Have we met?

Maybe.

I was posted in Sanctuary
a while back.

I'm DCI Knight.

Have you ever
cautioned me for speeding?

You wouldn't be the first.

Pierre Martineau.

You used to be married to
Bridget Paterson.

Before she saw the light?
Yes, that was me.

I was called to your house,
some kind of false alarm.

A kid fell?

That was you?

Like you said,
false alarm.

Make sure you catch
the scumbag who did this.

Some pretty
sick people out there.

So, what's the plan?

If Daniel was killed
by magic,

I should be able to pick up
residual traces at the warehouse.

Hey, that's her, isn't it?

She's the witch's daughter.

That's disgusting.

Thanks so much
for offering us

this interview,
Mrs. Whithall.

Are you sure you wouldn't prefer
to go somewhere quieter?

Quite honestly, I need to be
around people.

Well, I know our readers
will appreciate a mother's perspective.

And a best friend too,
I hope.

Jake.

Hey, witch,
do you do threesomes?

Thought I'd give
some space for Jake

to share his
recollections.

And I'm hearing what an
impressive young man Daniel was.

Volunteering to coach
the junior teams.

Oh, he was passionate about
supporting the kids.

They all loved him.

Everyone did.

He was gutted when his training
schedule meant he couldn't continue.

Such a tragic accident.

Yes.

Apparently.

Are you suggesting
it wasn't an accident?

I know for a fact
that it wasn't.

I've never met an actual
magical investigator before.

Probably just as nervous
about meeting you.

Really?

No.

Morgan Lynch,
Magical Investigator.

Let's head to the warehouse.

Won't be long.

Okay. Be careful.

So, what we need
is for you to ascertain

whether a crime was committed
here using magic.

Magic is... energy.

I can tune in to any emotional
or energetic imprint

which might give a clue
as to intent or motive.

Okay.

Are you able to tell us
what you're picking up?

...get it off...

So, you can't say for sure
what you were dealing with?

All I know
is it was something

so powerful, it's what pulled
the witch away, thankfully,

or they'd have caught me.

Did they see you?

Sensed me.

But then some deeper magic
way more powerful kicked in,

and that's what
they keyed into.

You... need to
take it easy.

No.

What I need...
is an explanation.

Stay here.

Pierre!

That was dark magic.

Where is everyone?

Drinks at the pub,
I think.

Someone's retiring?

You might wanna be next.

Too right.

After what happened
this morning.

I thought I knew
what magic was,

but that thing
at the warehouse--

The work of a very powerful
witch, according to Morgan.

So, do they think they could
identify the witch who cast the spell?

No, they had no sense
of what its source might be.

Well, we know
it's not Sarah.

She has a solid alibi
for that night.

Could a spell
be cast remotely?

Apparently not.

Which makes me wonder...

If there's another witch
in Sanctuary.

How would we find out?

Witches can detect
other witches,

if they're in
close proximity.

There's supposedly some kind of
shared recognition.

An exchange of energy.

That witch today.

I'm guessing they're an MI.

Can you imagine
if they caught me?

The mother of the girl
accused of murder

sneaking around
the crime scene?

Shit.

The video's online.

Let's get Morgan.

That was quite the experience.

All in a day's work.

Drop me here.

If there is more than
one witch in Sanctuary

and I can get
close enough--

Could you verify
a connection

to the magic we saw
at the warehouse?

That would be the aim.

Is that Jake Bolt?

Wait here.

Jacob.

Got a minute?

This sex tape.

Do you have any idea
who filmed it?

Yeah.
That was Dan.

Dan?

I mean,
he set up the camera.

But it was Harper's idea.

Harper?

-You're certain of that?
-Yeah.

'Cause Dan had dumped
Harper, right?

And she wanted
to get back with him,

so I guess she thought...

that would do it.

Was it Dan's idea
to show it at the party?

Don't know.

Maybe, hoping she'd
give up after that.

To be fair, he just wanted
shot of her by then.

Actually,
my dad said not to

talk to you without
an adult present.

Fair enough.

Thanks for your help.

Oh, you're kidding me.

Abigail,
what the hell have you done?

This article, you need to stop
right now, this oversharing--

I'm trying to protect
our son's reputation.

Do you expect me
to let it get trashed?

I expect you to consider
my reputation,

to which we owe everything
good in our lives.

-Are you sure about that?
-One hundred percent,

and this is how
you thank me?

Maybe you should be
thanking me.

For what? For sharing
our private business

with a shitty,
little tabloid?

Why can't you show
some dignity?

My son just died!

And none of this is
going to bring him back.

You need to find a way to let him go.

Like you have?

Maybe you're glad
he's gone.

Less competition for you.

Never speak to me
like that again.

"An eyewitness and close friend
of the deceased

"alleges that Whithall's death
was due to an intentional act,

"that the fire which broke out
was started deliberately,

and that witchcraft
was definitely used."

What the actual fuck, Ted?

Your son, the only witness,
whose testimony

we agreed not to disclose,
is now talking to the press,

presumably behind your back,

putting the whole
investigation at risk.

I don't know, Mags.

Other than maybe
he got tired of waiting

for there to be some
actual progress.

Ted, if Jake is correct,

then we have a teenage girl,
a resident of this town,

guilty of murder
by unnatural means,

which incredibly,
in this day and age,

still carries
the death penalty.

But that's the law, Mags.

And isn't it our job
to uphold it?

Unless you don't have
the stomach for it.

What I have is the word
of a traumatized kid and a shaky video.

What I don't have
is any record

held by any authority that
Harper Fenn is a witch.

And, uh,
my name isn't Mags,

it's Detective Chief
Inspector Knight,

and should there be
any confusion,

I'm the lead investigator
on this case.

Custard donut?

Gross.

But yes.

If there was another witch
in Sanctuary, I'd know.

And if one came e in just
to murder Dan, though,

who would and why, then why
would they hang around?

What the fuck?

Oh...

The MI?

Let's go.

Bridget wants us.

Thank you.

Thank you.
I just really needed to see you.

What's happened?

It was Michael,
he was vile.

I actually thought
he was going to choke me.

I didn't know
who to turn to, I...

It's so lonely at home now,
I just...

I just needed
to see your face.

I'm...

I miss you,
and sometimes I wonder

if you miss me too,
given how much--

We agreed to walk away.

I didn't agree.

I never wanted to,
and in my heart,

I don't believe
you did, either.

Well, try and
believe it, Abigail.

I love Julia.

But you told me
you loved me, you,

you begged me to leave Michael,
and then suddenly we're done.

-What happened?
-I don't know.

It wasn't about you.

But it is about me!

You just abandoned me,

and now Dan is gone,
what do I have to live for?

I'm sorry, Abigail.

Hey, look, look, look.

Hey... Slut.

I took every copy I could find,

but they'll be
all over town by now.

What the hell must Abi think,
reading this shit?

Surely, she can call
and set the record straight.

Have you talked
to her lately?

Have you?

To be honest, yes.

She asked me and Julia
to take a side.

Against me?

Why did she ask that?

Because she's not
thinking straight.

The grief, it's sent her
totally off the rails, so this article,

I actually think
it's down to her.

She loves you,
you're her closest friend.

And that's what I keep
holding onto,

except I can't,

because I know
what this is.

It's blackmail.

I know how hurt you are,
but she--

She asked me,
the other night...

...to bring Daniel
back to life.

What?

Jeez.

"Daniel's life for
Harper's innocence,"

that's what she said.

And I told her if there was
any way I could,

I'd do it,
but what she's asking--

It's impossible.

Yes, yes! Thank you!

Is it, though?

I mean,
you did it before.

No, no, Bridge.

That time,
he was barely gone.

Hmm, there was no pulse,
there was no heartbeat.

He'd only just passed.

It was minutes,
and even then,

I should never
have done it.

It's against every law
there's ever been.

But all of you begged me,
and I did it out of love.

Then why can't you
do it again?

Because it's way too late.

Christ's sake, Bridge,
he's in the fucking ground.

Yeah, and all her begging,
pleading, threatening...

Please, you have to help me
help her to let him go.

I need to go home.

Donuts always help,
don't they?

So, just to be clear,

when you say vital
evidence was hushed up--

Footage filmed the night
Daniel Whithall died

strongly suggests that
witchcraft was at play.

Can you confirm that Sarah Fenn,

Sanctuary's witch,
and her daughter Harper,

have been named as
persons of interest?

No comment.

And when can we expect progress
in this investigation?

I really wish I knew.

Sadly, and it
pains me to say this,

but I have no confidence
in the way it's being run.

So, as of now, I'll be
taking a period of leave

to support my son Jacob,
and the Whithall family.

-Thank you.
-Yes. Oh, um, well...

Don't take it personally.

How is it not personal?

Shit, just what I need.

My boss is in town.

Interesting town.

How'd it go?

Find anything useful?

Nothing I didn't
already know.

Harper?

I'm here.

What is it?

More stupid accusations?

Ignore them.

You've nothing to hide.

Tell that to DCI Knight
and Beryl Varley.

Yes.

It's outrageous.

Abigail could put
a stop to it.

All she needs is to go
to the press and--

Abi?

What's Abi
got to do with it?

She's lost it.

The stuff she's been
saying...

...asking.

She wants me
to use magic.

To do what?

Bring Daniel back.

Oh, my--
is she insane?

Doesn't she know that you'd
go to prison for life,

and that you'd be banned
from using magic ever again?

Don't ever bring him back!

He deserves to be dead.

Why?

Harper?

Why does he deserve to--

He raped me.

And Sanctuary's got no fucking
idea what he's really like.

They're all breaking their
hearts over this idol,

and he's actually a psycho.

He raped me,
and he filmed it,

and now the video's
on the Internet.

It's pretty cool entertainment
for a party, isn't it?

Up on the wall
for everyone to see.

Me being a slut.

Oh, and that soundtrack--

happy clappy pop so you can't
hear what I'm actually saying.

I don't understand.

How could this...?

About a month ago,
I ended things with Dan.

I did it quietly,
so he wouldn't lose face.

His mates gave him stick for it,
but he got off with Bea,

so I thought
he'd moved on.

With Bea?

Turned out to be
a one-off thing, but...

About a week later
at this rugby party,

he asked me
to go back with him.

Said he'd only got with Bea
to make me jealous.

I said,
"No, we're done."

Was he mad?

No.
He actually apologized.

He said, "Let's be
grown up about this,"

and then he went off
to get us some drinks.

There you go.

Here's to being
just good friends.

Ugh!

-All right?
-That is not good.

Yeah?

-Okay? Yeah?
-Yeah.

I thought you two broke up.

Does it look like we broke up?

Dan, is she okay?

It's all good,
mate, I've got it.

She just needs to lie down.

Dan-- I don't want--

Afterwards,
I just lay there.

I know I should have
told you,

and the police,
but I just...

I knew what they'd say,
and what he'd say.

"She agreed to everything.

The sex,
and the tape, party."

I avoided him
for a week,

and then I tried to talk
to him at the warehouse.

He just walked away.

And then someone
played the tape

of what he'd done to me
in front of everyone.

So, I didn't wanna pre-empt
your findings this morning,

but now you've confirmed
that magic was used,

can I get your
opinion on something?

This was shot by one of
the kids at the party.

That's it?

This is the girl who's been
accused of bewitching the boy

-to fall to his death?
-Right.

In our craft,
if hand movements are used,

they're fluid,
controlled, precise.

There's no way they look wild
and erratic, like this.

She just looks angry.

So, some other
interference,

magical or otherwise, if you
had to hazard any theories?

My job is solely to confirm the
presence or absence of magic.

If present, ideally to identify
the witch, but in this case,

whoever cast the spell
managed to obliterate

any magical fingerprint.

Miss Fenn? Sarah?

It's Anna Dao, Brit News.
Could we have a chat?

Harper, if you're
in there, we'd love

to help you tell
your side of the story.

We'll be right outside
if you change your mind.

I'll leave my card.

They'll soon get bored.

But for now, stay inside,

at least 'til I've
talked to Abi.

So, you'll go there,

and tell her what her
perfect son's really like?

That's not a good idea.

Why?

Because we need her
to cooperate,

just 'til you're
in the clear.

So...
I'm the victim,

but I'm the one that
needs to keep quiet,

while you beg Abi to tell
everyone that I'm innocent?

That's not what
I'm saying.

"Oh, thank you, Abi,
for letting me off the hook

"for something
I didn't do,

and in return we'll save your
precious Dan's holy name."

Well, you must see
the mood she's in.

If you attack Dan,
she'll go for you even harder.

She is going for me, Mum!

And you're just
letting her!

Why am I even surprised?

That's what you do,
isn't it?

Don't fight back,
don't get angry,

-just be a good little witch.
-No, that's--

that's not what this is about.

Of course you go public,
once you're in the clear.

Though even then...

Do you know why
so few women report rape,

even fewer witch women?

I'm not a witch.

People think you are.

So, the likelihood
of you being believed and

of no one assuming you're
not naturally promiscuous--

Okay.

No, I think you're right.

I'm a murderer and a slut,

and I should just keep my mouth
shut and not rock the boat.

No, Harper...

I'm just trying
to take care of you.

Well, thank you.
I can take care of myself.

So, will you be
reporting back to the Moot,

-what you saw at the warehouse?
-I left the Moot,

'cause all they want to do
is keep their heads down.

The laws of this country
actively discriminate against witches,

so I work with
law enforcement

to ensure witches get a fighting
chance of being treated fairly.

Good luck.

-Bye.
-Thanks.

So, now we know
it wasn't Harper.

Which tallies with
what Sarah said.

But magic was
definitely used,

and Sarah Fenn is the only
registered witch in Sanctuary.

But why would she wanna harm her
daughter's boyfriend,

the son of one of
her closest friends?

The sex tape?

Jake said it was Dan who wanted
it shown at the party,

so if you were Sarah--

You'd be raging, yes.

But how could you know
it'd be shown?

And if you did, would you
really murder a kid

you've known
his whole life?

Ugh, disgusting.

Who would do this?

Harper's gone out.

I take it she's seen the video
that's been posted online.

Have you caught
the bastard who did it?

Not yet.

But we will.

Can you think of anyone

who might have wanted
to harm Daniel, on Harper's behalf?

No, I can't.

Though anyone with a shred of
decency would be appalled

to think that
a private video

was now all over
the Internet.

Why do you ask?

It's my job to investigate
all possibilities.

Well, could you please
make it your job

to stop harassing
a young, innocent girl?

Thanks for coming, Abi.

How you doing?

I've been better.

Izzy.

What do you
have to say?

Sorry for your loss,
Abigail.

Thanks, Izzy.

I know you loved him too.

Come on.

So, after our conversation,

Julia and I
have been talking.

-About what you asked us.
-About being there for you.

And you understand,
don't you,

that whatever I have to do,
it's only because--

We know, Abi,
what you asked Sarah to do.

And we know that
she refused.

So, will you help me?

Will you go and tell her
she owes me this?

Does she, though?

Really?

If anyone owes anything--

Isn't it you?

Think about it, Abi.

What she did.

What she gave you.

Oh, God!

Michael, what are you doing?

There's nothing I can do.

Sarah, please...

Sarah, please...

He's breathing.

He's breathing.

Okay, we need to get him inside,
clean him up.

Dan, you probably don't remember
what happened,

but when the police come,

this is what
you tell them, okay?

Six years.

Yes.

Six more years
of seeing him grow up, of...

of him and me together.

All that time
you wouldn't have had.

That's what she gave me.

How could I forget?

I'm a monster.

No, Abi,
you're a mum,

who suffered
an unspeakable loss.

But I actually believed what
Jake said about Harper.

I tried to blackmail Sarah.

Oh, God,
she must hate me!

She doesn't hate you.

She loves you.

And it's not too late.

There's still time
to make things right.

Yes.

Yes, I can do that.

I owe her.

Bridge,
did you speak to Abi?

We did... and I think
it's gonna be okay.

She's here
and she wants to talk.

Oh, thank you.

-I'm coming over.
-Okay.

DCI Knight.

DSI Remington.

You wanted to see me?

It's been too long.

Looking good, Maggie.

Bollocks, Remy.

This case is
giving me ulcers.

Not the proverbial
open and shut?

That's why you're here?

Think I can't hack it?

You have nothing
to prove to me.

Bullshit.
You're my boss.

Though, frankly,
I should've been your boss,

but hey,
job's for the boys.

Do you see me arguing?

You could've
turned it down.

Would you?

So, I've been wondering,

did I make a mistake?

Putting me on the case?

Calling time, on us.

I'm supposed to be,
what, flattered?

Grateful?

Glad, maybe?

Knowing that I tried
to move on and couldn't.

Oh, fuck it.

Thank you, Cheryl.

Well, look at us coven chicks,
all back together.

I...
I don't know what to say.

I was deranged.

The things I said were--

What I asked you to do.

I never meant to hurt
you or Harper.

Maybe I was in
so much pain I was just--

I just wanted
to hurt everyone.

I'm so sorry.

Can you ever forgive me?

Of course I forgive you.

Of course.

Harper had nothing to do
with Dan's death,

-you know that, right?
-Yeah?

-MM-hmm.
-Yeah?

I need to hear
you say it.

Harper had nothing to do
with Dan's death.

And I need you to say it
to the police,

and the press,
and to Ted and Jake,

and all Dan's friends.

Because my office
has been attacked,

we've got a news crew
on our doorstop,

and Harper isn't safe until
you tell everyone you know

she didn't do this.

I'll tell them.

I promise.

Oh, please.

You need to come inside, now!

What--?

And this week,
in an extraordinary step,

the Sanctuary Reporter
published an article

linking a high school student

to the murder of her
ex-boyfriend.

That young woman
is Harper Fenn,

and she's here with me now.

Harper, thank you for agreeing
to speak with me.

How are you feeling?

What do you make of
these allegations?

They're not true.

Your mother's office
was defaced,

and we're hearing of
other instances

of Wiccaphobia
across the county.

Do you and your mother
fear for your safety?

Whoever did it probably
hoped that it would scare us,

but really, they're the ones
that should be scared.

Of witchcraft?

Of the truth.
About?

Dan Whithall.

He was...

He was a rapist.

He... he drugged me
and raped me and filmed it,

and that's the truth
about Dan Whithall.

Harper, I have to
stop you right there.

He was a rapist
and a predator and...

Can I just emphasize,

no charges have been brought
against Dan Whithall,

or against Harper Fenn.
There won't be-- I'm innocent.

That's all we have time
for this evening.

We'll bring you
more updates on--

You knew about this?

And you dared to ask me to tell
everyone she's innocent?

Abigail, I--

Isn't it enough
that she killed him?

Now she's trashing his name
with her disgusting lies!

Sarah, wait!

"Sarah, wait--" Nice to know
who your friends really are!

Abi, please don't
jump to conclusions.

That devious, evil--

She nearly had me agreeing
to shut down the whole thing!

Well, guess what, witch!

It's only just begun!

It's okay, sweetheart.

We all owe Sarah something.

Not anymore.

Woman: The whole town's
lost its mind.

Man: Abigail is on a mission
to crucify Sarah Fenn.

You have to arrest that woman.
You have to make her pay.

Sarah Fenn is the only witch
in Sanctuary...

I didn't cast any spells.

All they have to do
is a bit of digging

and they'll know you lied.

They're gonna be
coming for us.

Woman #2:
I want us to reclaim Sanctuary.

Dunk her!

Get off me!
