- So, to sum things up,

know the story you want
your customers to have
from day one.

The bigger the journey
you take them on,

the stronger your relationship
will be with them.

That way you are able
to create a stronger brand

and a stronger business.

Thank you.

If you have
any questions, I'm here.

I look forward
to working together.

Excuse me, one moment.

Oh, hmm...

Okay! Here you go.
- Thank you.

So, did you knock 'em dead?

- I really did!

Honestly, they're probably
still lying there

like a bunch
of upturned June bugs!

I'm glad.

- But now I'm actually feeling
guilty for feeling so good.

- Ugh, sweetie.
It's just the next step,

learning to embrace and enjoy
all your positives again.

Exactly as Mike would
have wanted you to.

- I might actually give
the group a skip tomorrow night.

- Are you sure?

- Mm-hmm.

- Bereavement support
isn't just for the bad times.

I know the girls would
appreciate hearing about

how you knocked it
out of the park today.

- Thank you, but...

I actually have a thing.

- A date?
- No, no. Um...

No, it's...

it's a wish.

Something I've wanted
for a really long time,

and today,

it might be coming true.

Hi, I have an appointment
today with Dr. Shaw.

- The good news,

the embryos you
and your husband had frozen

with us are in great shape.

But I'm afraid
your reproductive
system is not.

It's not in the state
we need it to be

for you to carry a baby
to term or to give birth.

I'm so sorry.

- Dr. Shaw...

my husband, he was...

He was the love of my life.

This baby is all
that I have left of him...

and the life
that we were going
to build together.

Surely there's something
we could do.

A medical trial or...

anything.

- Nothing that would guarantee
your health and well-being.

- Well, I could
sign a waiver, or--

- There are other options,
of course. There's adoption.

- Um, no, thank you.

- I want Michael with me.

I want to know
that we're having
our child.

- Well, there's always this.

Surrogacy can be
an excellent choice.

And one that's worked well
for many of our patients.

We can set you up with
a carefully screened match
and make introductions.

- You mean have someone else
that's not me carry our child?

I don't know
that I could do that.

- Of course, I respect
whatever choice you make.

And you don't
have to decide today.

But I wouldn't
leave it too long.

- You know...

giving birth
isn't the only thing
that makes a mom

any more than a marriage
is defined by a wedding day.

- Do you remember
our wedding day?

- Of course. It was beautiful.

- Those are the only memories
I have left of him.

That's why every piece
of physical evidence
is...

Well, it's so important to me.

So precious.

Especially this baby.

I just need to know
that it feels right.

I can't go through losing
him again. I really can't.

- I know.

- How you doing, nugget head?

Thought I might find you here.

Grace told me what they said.

What a pair we are, huh?

If Mom and Dad
were still around,

do you think they'd
be disappointed neither of us

have managed to give
them grandkids yet?

- No.

No, I think they would
completely understand.

Miracle babies, right?

That's what they called us.

"You wait
years for one baby to show up,

and two arrive
practically together!"

- Honestly, I think
Mom wanted us so badly

that she willed us into being.

- But we don't have to do that.

We've got 21st-century medical
science at our fingertips.

Grace and I,
we're doing IVF.

And you have
the surrogate option.

I don't know
what Grace has told you,

but we've been trying
for three years now,

and we're really
feeling the strain.

I kinda wish
we had some nice lady

show up and just be like...

- It's not as simple as that.

- I know, I do know...

I guess what I'm trying
to say is you've got options.

In a year's time,
you could have
your miracle baby.

Just pick up the phone
and say, "Yes, Dr. Shaw!"

Not everyone has that chance.

- That doesn't necessarily
make it right for me.

- Remember Mike's mantra?

"Don't let perfect
be the enemy of good."

- The best candy
bar in the world.

Thanks.
- You're welcome.

It's not a baby,
but it comes pretty close,

right?

Can I walk you back?

- No. Thank you.

There's actually
somewhere I want to go.

- Okay, sure.

See you later, nugget head.

- Here I am again,

asking what you would do.

What should I do?

I know. I know what
you would say.

Don't let perfect
be the enemy of good.

Hi. Yeah, I would like
to speak to Dr. Shaw, please.

I need to make an appointment.

Hi.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- It doesn't
look like Susie's meetings

with potential
surrogates went very well.

- It's just bad news
all around today, isn't it?

It's even worse when you see it
written down, isn't' it?

Hey.

- So...

surrogates? No good?

- Dr. Shaw, she pulled together
a really lovely group of women.

But... I don't know,
it just seems so impersonal.

- I said no to all of them.

- Ah...

I'm sorry.

- Where is Andy anyway?

- I mean, you should
know by now timekeeping
isn't his strong suit.

Oh, wow. Speak of the devil.

- Hey, everyone.

- Hey, Andy. Um...

Are you going to introduce us?

- This is Lorna.

Paul Morgan's sister.

You remember Paul,
from our street?

They had that dog
with the crooked tail

'cause it got hit
by the ice cream truck,

and Paul never wanted
ice cream that whole summer?

- Right, um... Lorna!

You were just a little dot
the last time I saw you.

What brings you here?

- I've just moved here.

Paul said I should
look you guys up,

reconnect with some friendly,
familiar faces.

- Hope that's alright.
We always over-order.

- Um...

Right, okay. Well, I will...

I'll just put out
another place setting.
Come on in.

- Thanks.
- Go on in.

- So, Lorna, um...

Are you here for work,
or studying, or...

- Or a man?
- Grace!

- Or a woman!
Because that would be fine.

It'd be great, actually.

- No. Nothing like that.

I got a job working
at the Law Help Centre
over on Huron Avenue.

It's just admin stuff,

but I'm also studying part-time
and saving to go travelling.

- Oh, wow.

Finding rent,
and saving and paying
for college?

That... That can't be easy.

- It's not.

- Lorna needs a side hustle
she can basically
do in her sleep.

- Am I missing something?

- Suze? What do you think?

About Lorna being
your surrogate?

- I really do want
to help, Mrs. Ashcroft.

- Oh, please.
Uh, call me Susie.

- People were very kind to me

a few years ago
when my mom got sick.

And I remember
how kind your mom was

to me and Paul
when we were growing up.

- Are you going
to say something?

- If you could excuse me
just for a minute.

- Suze.

- It'll be fine.

Eat.

- I am so sorry.

I didn't know
he was gonna do that.

- It's okay.
It's not your fault.

- He means well,

but he is not subtle.

- No.

- You know what? You stay here.
I'm gonna talk to him,

get him to take Lorna home.

This was completely
inappropriate.

- No, wait.

You heard her.

I mean, she knew my mom, dad...

Our street.

Our family.

Maybe...

Maybe this is right.

I mean, maybe she is the one
that should carry my baby.

I just said that, hey?
My baby?

Yeah.

- Do you hate me?

The baby thing...

it's not really working out
for me and Gracie right now.

I just... I want to see it
work out for you.

Besides, I promised Mom
I'd always look after you.

- From candy bars
to surrogates?

- Whatever it takes.

- Okay. I... I'll talk to her.

- Yeah?

Come here.

- Lorna, I just...
I wanted to check with you.

Are you sure about this?

I mean, you're very young,

and well,
nine months is a while,

and it could cramp
your style for a bit.

- Oh, uh...

I'm not into partying
or anything like that, Mrs...

Susie.

I just want to get my degree
and get on with my life.

- Okay.

I can't tell you
how much this means to me.

You'll be very well
taken care of.

And I can pay you
a generous amount.

I earn a good living,

and I was left life insurance
when my husband passed away.

- Um, we can talk about
all that later.

- Okay, sure, right. Um...

Thank you.

- Um... Well, thanks for dinner.

And I'll just get out
of your hair.

- Oh, no, you don't have
to leave.

I remembered,
I actually have some photos

of all of us when we were
little kids in the garden.

I can find them and show them
to you, and we can sit and chat

and get to know you better.

Unless there's somewhere
you need to be.

- Oh, no. That sounds great.

- Okay. I'll be right back.

Sounds like we have a plan then.

Okay.

Hey, Andy,
can you give Lorna a ride?

It's getting really
dark out there.

- No, it's okay, I can walk.

- Are you sure?
It's really no trouble at all.

- Honestly, I'm good.

I get some of my best thinking
done when I'm walking.

- Okay. Night.

- I can't find my damn keys...

and there they are.

- Andy, she's out there walking
alone. It's dark out there.

She's not gonna be able to do
that when she's got the baby.

- We're ready.

- Good luck.

- Well, that was flawless.

Get some rest and let me know
if you have any questions.

- Thanks.
- Okay, take care.

- Hey.

- That was so fast.
Wow, how do you feel?

- I feel good.

A little uncomfortable,
but good.

I think I'm due for a cup
of tea and a nice nap at home.

- Oh. Um, did the nurse
say that was okay?

Did she give any notes
or instructions?

- Susie, it's all good.

I'd never do anything to put
the baby in harms' way.

Promise.

- Okay, but...

- Look, communication is key.

I swear that I will
keep you in the know

on everything to
do with the baby.

But you need to trust me
for this to work

or the next nine months
will be a lot crazier
than it needs to be.

- You're right. You're right!

It's a partnership.

And partnerships require
trust, honesty,

and great communication.

I...I promise I will
do my best, but...

the anticipation
is going to kill me.

Do you want a ride?

- Sure.
- Okay.

- Are you sure we shouldn't
have stayed a little longer?

Just to make sure
everything was okay.

- They said it was fine.

Besides, I feel good,
and I'd rather be at home.

Susie, we just talked
about this.

- Well, at least
we both have a mama bear
look sorted out.

- If only that look
worked on everyone.

Oh, right here's fine.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah.

Well, I'll see you
when I see you.

- Okay...

Oh, boy...

- Hi! Delivery for Mama Bear!

- Come in.

- Is this right?

- Yeah, I think so.
I mean, it looks great.

- Then why do I still have this?

- Hmm, good question.

Oh. Ah, this is my work calling.

I've gotta take this.

- Okay.

- Hey, yeah, Steve, it's me.

Yeah, I'm sending over
the amended files right now,

Steve.

Let me know if you get 'em,
okay?

So, this is the size

that you are right now,
huh, little baby?

I hope you're okay
away from Mummy.

- Hey! Are you snacking
and slacking right now?

- Did you know that the little
one is the size of an apple

right now, according to this?

- Aw... That's amazing.

- It is weird...

if I say that I miss my baby?

- No, of course not!

Hey, why don't you call
Lorna up, invite her over?

- Okay.

She's not picking up.
You think she's okay?

I don't know,
maybe I should go over there.

- I'm sure she's just fine,
Susie.

She's probably napping.

Pregnant on a lazy
Sunday afternoon.

I know I would be.

- Right.

- The nursery is not
gonna decorate itself.

- Perfect.

Cheese!

Aw.
- Okay, great.

This looks so great!

Okay, I'm gonna
get a photo of the crib,

and I'm gonna send it to Lorna.

Oh, wow.
She responded right away.

- What'd she say?

- Oh, she says...

"It looks fantastic.
I can't wait

to see it in person.

And I'm stuck at home with
a bit of a cold right now."

- Oh.

- I... I don't know.

I feel like I should go over
and see her.

Do you mind?

- No, no, not at all.

Go be with both of them.

I can finish up here.

- Yeah?
- Mm-hmm.

- Okay. Thanks, Grace.
- Bye.

Thanks for coming by.
You really didn't need to.

- Oh, no, no. I couldn't leave
you here alone.

All by yourself
and you're feeling ill?

- Oh, it's just a sniffle,
it's nothing, really.

I keep to myself mostly.
My life is really low-key.

I do feel like I'm carrying
around a Faberge egg in here.

- Do you mind? May I?

- Um, sure.

- I just think
it's so neat that

they can hear
from the inside out.

- I do find myself
talking to her.

- Do you?

- Yeah.

- I can't wait to tell her
all about her dad.

Any kicking so far?

- Uh, not yet, but any day now,
according to Dr. Google.

- Okay, well, be sure to tell me
as soon as it happens.

- Of course.

I'm looking forward to it,
believe it or not.

- I believe it.

So how's your brother?
How's Paul?

- He's good.
- Yeah? Is he working, or...?

- Uh, this and that.

He struggles to settle
on one thing you know?

- Yeah. Yeah, he was never
one to concentrate.

He went from one
thing to the next.

Totally.

- Did you find,
or do you have any photos

of when you guys were kids?

Or when we were
all kids together?

- Actually, I do.

Um, they're just
in the back room.

I'll go grab them.

Found them!

Here they are.

I knew I had
them somewhere.

- Aw!

Oh, your mom. She's very...

very sweet.

And this is you.

You're what, maybe...?

- About five, I think?

You know, I actually have
a test on Monday,

and I should really
start studying.

- Oh. Sure, yeah.

- I just, I don't want
to be up crazy late.

- Of course.
I should probably go.

This has been really nice,
to spend time with both of you.

Goodbye, little one.

I hope we can
do it again sometime.

- Sure.

- No, don't get up.
Um, I'll let myself out.

Here. You need to sit down
and properly relax.

- I can move around.

The baby's not gonna fall out.

- Lorna, I wish you would
consider staying with me.

It just would feel
so lovely to have her close by.

And of course,
I would help take care of you.

- That's kind, but I want
to keep my independence.

- Right.

Maybe we can discuss
it again further
down the line.

- He looks really nice.
- He was.

I think he would approve of us.

I mean, of this.

- You're really lucky.

I haven't had the best track
record with men.

- Oh?

You know, I did kiss a lot
of frogs before I met Mike,

so I get it.

But what about you?
You've never...?

- No. Not right now.

Not for a little while.

My last relationship was...

- You know, you don't
have to get into it.

- No, I'm not ashamed.

It wasn't me. It was him.

David Michael Reese.

Let's just say he wasn't
a very nice person.

And he loved motorbikes
more than he loved me,

or anyone else, for that matter.

Eventually, I got up
the courage to leave him.

- He's not still around, right?

- Oh, no, I doubt it.

He's actually
part of the reason
I moved to the city.

To get a fresh
start.

- Well that's good.

Hi!

- Sorry to just drop by
out of the blue.

- No, no, come in.

- I went by that new mom
and baby store on Myers Street.

And I couldn't resist!

- Oh! How adorable are these?
Thank you.

- Oh, I have
one more thing for you,

and I hope you don't
think it's too much,

but I could just picture
it in the nursery.

- Okay.
- One sec.

- Oh my goodness,
he is adorable!

She's really gonna love
playing with this.

Thank you.

- I'm sorry, it's just...

- Oh, no! No, sweetie, please.
One day, this will be you.

- I know. I know, and she'll
have a cousin to play with.

- Two cousins. Maybe three.

- Oh! Okay, now,
slow down there.

- Do you want to come
in for coffee?

Lorna's in the living room.

- Oh, no, no, it's okay.

I actually have somewhere to be.

- You sure? Yeah?

- Yeah.

- Thank you.
- Okay, bye.

- Today was really fun.

- Yeah. Thanks for letting me
get to know you better.

- Thanks for the ride.
- No problem.

Goodbye, little one!

Are you okay?

That was close.

Are you okay?

- Honestly, I'm fine.

- I think I should take you
to a hospital.

- No! No, Susie, please.

I just want to go upstairs
where I feel safe

and can get comfortable.

Please.

- Okay, okay, let me at least
help you upstairs.

- Okay.

- Oh, my God.

Lorna, who did this?

Ah, oh God! Oh God!

- Sit down! Sit down!
Just take a deep breath, please.

Please, just... This is crazy,

I'm phoning an ambulance.

Hi, I... I need to get an
ambulance right away, please.

Just take a deep breath.

Lorna.

You should come home with me.

- No. No, I'm fine. I promise.

I'm sorry, this has all been
such a fuss.

- No, no! We need to know
that you're both safe.

Besides, your place is probably
still crawling with cops.

- Look...

I appreciate your
generosity, I do,

it's just...

I've been on
my own for a while now,

and I really like it that way.

You know, feeling like I have it
all together, my independence.

I just really
don't want to lose that.

And your baby is my priority,

sure, but I have to look after
myself too, you know?

- Listen...

I hear you and I totally respect
your privacy.

But I can reassure you that you
both will be safe at my place.

Please?

Please, just come with me.

Both of you.

- Everything okay?

- Yeah. Everything's fine.

I...I made you tea. I...

I was gonna bring it up.

- Thanks.

Susie?

What's going on?

- I just, I...

I thought
I heard some racoons
in the trash or something.

I'm coming right in.

Hello?

Hi, Detective Mayhew.

Uh, no. Lorna's not
actually here right now.

Um, this is...

Yeah, no, this is her mom.

You can talk to me.

No, she's gonna stay with me
for an unforeseeable timeline,

so I know she's safe.

Have you guys found anything,

like any kind of suspect or...

anything?

What about the guy
on the motorbike?

What about the fact that someone
tried to break into our windows

later that same day?

No, I don't have any concrete
link between the two.

Yes.

Thanks.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Can I do anything
to help with dinner?

- No, dinner's pretty
much prepped.

Lorna, there's not anyone
that you would be on

the wrong side of, is there?

- No.

- Someone you may have hurt
their feelings?

College or work, or anything?

- There's no one.

- I remember
you saying that your ex,

he really liked motorbikes.

- Yeah, along
with a lot of other
guys on the planet.

- Right.

Dinner's almost ready.
You can go wash up if you want.

- 'Kay.

- Ah-ha.

Found you.

- Hey, why don't you take five?

I'll make you coffee for once.

- No. I have so much work to do,

and I just, I really want
to finish tidying up.

- No, I told you I'd help, okay?

Let me tidy, and I'll make lunch
too, okay?

I just need to make
a phone call first.

What's this number?

I'm just gonna see who called.

- Don't.

- What's the matter?

- I might
have answered your phone
when you weren't here.

It was the police,
and I pretended
to be your mother.

- Why would you do that?

- To save you a hassle.

- From my own phone calls?

From the police?
What else are you
keeping from me?

- I'm not keeping anything,
I swear.

If you had just come
home...

- This isn't my home.

- If you had just
come back here...

I was worried about
my baby, and about you.

The police have said that your
place is fine to go back to,

but I've decided that--

- Susie! You don't get to make
those decisions for me.

- I get to make them for her.
- No.

This isn't care.

This is coercive control,
and it's not good
for me or my baby.

- Your baby?

- I'm going upstairs.

- Hey, uh, Grace. It's me.

Uh, do you have time
to meet up for coffee?

Hey.

- There you are.
- Thanks.

Oh! Excuse me.

- Grace, what's...?

What's going on?

- We've come to the end
of the road with the IVF.

No baby.

Hugely decreased chances
of there ever being a baby.

Just a whole bunch
of enormous bills.

Oh, please.

Please don't be kind to me.

I'll bawl my eyes
out if you are.

I've come to terms with it.

I mean, we've done everything
we can, and more.

We're just so bruised
and exhausted by all of it.

- How's Andy taking all of this?

- Well...

The money the procedures cost
and how it made me feel,

it put a lot of strain on us.

A lot of strain.

Suze, that's what
I wanted to tell you.

Andy and I are...

We're taking a break
from each other.

He's moved out.

- Grace, I am so sorry.
I had no idea.

I've been so wrapped up with
Lorna and the baby and my own
life that...

I haven't been there for you.

I promise that that's gonna
change from this moment forward.

- Well, it would be nice
to see more of you.

And the baby.
- Of course.

- When she comes.

- My gosh. You know,
when you and Andy

first got together I...

I thought you were
such a perfect match.

That that's what I wanted
in a relationship.

And then when I met Mike...

I thought to myself,
well now I can have

what Grace and Andy have.
- Well...

We are simply on different
paths, sweetie.

And that's okay.

- Look at what I got you.

This is the picture
of our little girl.

Right now she's the size
of an apple, maybe bigger.

I'm gonna tell her
everything we did,

everywhere we went,

and everything
we've achieved together.

Especially her.

Lorna! I'm
back.

Listen, I don't want to fight.

Are you here?

Lorna?!

- Hi, this is Lorna.
You know what to do at the bee.

- Lorna, hi. It's me.

I keep trying to get
a hold of you, I just...

Can you call me back and let me
know that you're okay? Please?

Lorna?

Where are you?

Has Ms. Morgan telephoned at all
to say why she isn't here?

- Sorry, we haven't
heard from her.

- Okay.

- Hi, this is Lorna.
You know what to do at the bee.

- Lorna, hi, it's me, um...

I'm really sorry that we fought.

Can you please just
call me or text me?

Just let me know that
you're okay, okay?

Thanks.

Andy?

- Hey, sis.

- Hey, um,
what are you doing here?

Where is everyone?

- Well, after Mike passed,

I let the admin staff go,

the business contracted,

and I got stuck with the lease.

You alright?

- No.

Lorna's gone.

- Gone? What do you mean?

- We got into a fight
and she left.

I don't know where she went

and she's not answering
her phone.

I haven't been able to find her.

Do you have her brother
Paul Morgan's phone number?

- Slow down.
When was this fight?

- It happened
earlier this morning.

- This morning?

She's probably sulking
at a friend's.

- No, it was like six hours ago.

- Oh, Suze,

you went AWOL for
two days one summer

and you were only 18.

And Mom and Dad
were having kittens.

- Yeah, I wasn't pregnant, Andy.

And...

I saw footprints at the backdoor
and then I found...

her necklace.

- Footprints?

Don't you think you're getting
a little afternoon

murder mystery?

- You think I'm overreacting?

- A little, yeah.

- So what, you think
she's just...

gone home?

- Eating for two,
binge-watching cable.

You can't spend the rest
of this pregnancy

dialled up to an eleven,
you're gonna give yourself

a heart attack.

You should just, um...

try to enjoy it.

- Grace told me everything.

- That must have taken
quite a while.

- I'm so sorry.

- I just gotta give
her some time

and hope she comes around.

- From everything I've gathered
from Grace,

it seemed like you were the one
that initiated the break.

- To be honest, I could just
see that her heart wasn't in it.

In me, in us anymore,

so I made it easier for her.

Go home.

Make your surrogate a nice,
hot cup of cocoa

with marshmallows and cream

and chill the heck out.

- Okay.

Lorna?

Lorna?!

- Hi, this is Lorna.
You know what to do at the bee.

- Lorna, it is dark out.

Please, just call me back.

I wanna know that you're okay.

- What can I start you off with?
- Hi. I have a question.

Um, have you ever
seen this guy before?

I really need to talk to him.

He's standing out front
of your restaurant.

I'm worried he's gonna
hurt someone.

It's my baby, and I know
that sounds crazy,

it's really hard
to explain but...

I'm desperate.

- He's not the person
you think he is. Not anymore.

That community outreach
thing he did...

It really changed him.

- He's in the catering core?

- That's South Korea.

He's been there
for the past six months.

- Thank you.

- Hello? It's Helen.

- Hey, it's Susie.
I really need your help.

I'm coming to pick you up.

You know, you can stay
in the car if you want.

- No, of course not.

Besides, what's the point
of me coming if I just hide?

- Okay.

- Excuse me, what do you
think you're doing?

- My friend, uh, lives here,
and they're not answering.

- I don't know you,
I can't just let you in.

- Can you help me?

I'm looking for this person,
Lorna Morgan.

That's not Lorna,

that's Madison.

- Madison?
- Madison Clark.

But I haven't seen her in days.

- This is a dead end.

Okay...

- Thank you.

I should phone the police,
right?

What if I do
and then what if they

do something to the baby?

My baby, oh gosh.

I feel like I'm going crazy.

- There is another way.

But you need to find out
everything you can

about Lorna Morgan.

- Okay, um...

We could start with her brother,
I mean, his old place.

- Yeah.

- I just need to know
that they're safe.

- You need to get some sleep.

- Oh, God.

I must be out of my mind.

Panama?

Oh my God.

Okay.

Okay,
I'm calling the cops.

- No! No, please, the note says,
"Do not call the police."

I don't want to risk my baby.

- Okay, Andy told me that Lorna
had reached out to him,

that her brother Paul had
told her about your problems

and she wanted to help.

I know he asked her questions,

so he must have been satisfied
with the answers.

- Yeah, well Paul is a whole
other issue altogether.

Apparently he smashed some guy
over the head with a bottle

and ended up in prison

and just got out six months ago.

And then I went
by Lorna's apartment,

and there was a woman there,
and I showed her

a picture of Lorna and she said

her name is actually Madison.

- Andy was just
trying to help, Suze.

- I know.

I just wanna find my baby.

- I know.

- Madison Clark...

Who are you?

- Suze?
What are you doing out here?

I saw you downstairs.

- I wanted to see where Mike...

Where it happened.

- I know.

Let's go inside, we can talk.

- Do you think he kept
secrets from me?

Like, do you think Mike
didn't tell me things?

- I didn't see much
of him in that last year,

truth be told. It wasn't
like in the early days.

I mean, I was always out seeing
clients day in and day out

and he was here
holding down the fort.

- When did you last talk
to Paul Morgan,

like, face to face?

- I haven't.

I mean, I did reach out to him

via instant message
when Lorna showed up

just to see if he wanted
to go for a beer,

but I never heard back.

Why do you want to know?

Suze, I'm worried about you.

- I'm worried about my baby.

That's all I can think about
day and night.

Oh it's Helen, she's calling.

Hey, Helen. It's me.
I've got you on speaker.

What do you got for me?

- So, my brother Pete,
who was a cop,

he has a buddy from those days

who went into private
investigation.

According to him,

Madison has loads
of massive debts,

mostly with one company.

The company operates
out of a complicated

shell system that--

- Let me guess, Panama.

- Yeah, Panama.

I see you've been busy
digging too.

Anyway, Pete's friend
is confident

he can unravel it all.

So far it's pointing
to an entity in the US,

probably on this side
of the country.

He said he'll get back to me
in the next 24 hours.

If he can track down copies
of the documents

that prove all of this,
he'll send them over.

News as it happens.

- Thank you.

- I...
- Oh, we're here.

- Stay here. I'll handle this.

- You were told to come alone.

- Hey, I'm her brother,
you talk to me, not her.

Listen, all we want is...

Hold on, take it easy.

Take it easy.

- Help!

Help!

Help!

- Lorna!

They're getting away! No!

I should have done what he said.

I should have come alone...

and we'd have her back by now.

- Ow.

- Sorry.
- It's okay.

- Susie, we have
to call the police.

I mean, you can't deal
with people like this.

Kidnappers, gunmen...

- And you think that was Paul
and he's involved somehow?

- I don't know, I mean,
I didn't get a really good look.

Andy...

Wouldn't Mike have known Paul?

- I don't think so.
Mike? Susie, what's going on?

I don't even know anymore.

- No, Andy, you can stay
here if you'd like.

I can get some blankets
for the couch.

- Ah, it's okay, I think
I'll just head back to my place.

- Okay.

Susie, I'm calling
the police now.

- No, can you just...

I just need a few more hours.

Helen is sending over
the documents

that she talked about
in the car.

They're transferring right now.

I know digging like this...

it seems like
a last resort, but...

I will search to the ends
of the earth to find my baby.

To the day I die if I have to.

- Come on.

Don't die on me now.

And... uploaded.

Ah!

- Helen!

Where is she?

Oh dear!

What did you send me, Helen?

Oh, my God.

Michael Ashcroft...

It's Mike.

- Hi there, this is Grace.

I can't get to the phone
right now,

so leave your name and number
and I will call you back.

- Grace! It's Mike.

- It can't be,
it doesn't make any sense.

- I know.

I know it's not actually
him but...

what if it is?

What if Mike was never really
who I thought he was?

- Susie, we buried him.

- It's crazy but...
I'm just grasping at straws,

at like anything at this stage.

What?

Grace, what?

- Okay, I never told you
at the time,

it was right before
Mike passed away,

about 18 months ago,

and I was having a day out
in that little

arts and crafts type place

about 20 miles outside
of town at Barford.

I was at a bistro there

and I saw Mike.

With a girl.

And they were together,
together, you know?

But I was behind her so...

I couldn't see,
but it was so strange

because for a fleeting moment,
I thought it was you.

But like, when we first met.

- Lorna?

- I don't know, sweetie.

It's possible.

It is possible, I mean,
he wouldn't be the first person

to take out life insurance
on himself

and then try to throw a scam
to get his hands on it.

- Didn't you say
I reminded you of her?

- Yeah.

But like, ten years ago.

I'm phoning the police.

- Oh, finally, the...

Oh, sweetie, you're shaking.

Have a brandy
and I'll call, okay?

- Okay.

- Hello. Yes, I'd like
to report a crime.

Kidnap, extortion, harassment,
possibly fraud, we don't know.

271 Woodview Drive.

I will.

You know there's something
about Lorna

that just never sat
right with me.

- Stupid thing is,
is that she actually seemed

quite lovely when I Googled her.

- Well, Mike has good taste.

- What was that?

- Wait here.

- Grace?

Oh, my God!

Ah!

Oh, ah...

- Susie?

- Is my baby okay?

- Baby's fine.

She was just kicking
a half hour ago.

- Oh, thank God.

Thank God.

Oh I need to get out
of these hand ties.

- Susie, you're gonna
hurt yourself.

- Help!

Help!

- I tried that.

Nobody's coming.

- I'm not stupid, Lorna.

Or should I say, Madison?

I know that you two
are working together.

Where is he? Where is he hiding?

- What?

- Mike.

The two of you, I mean,
I've seen the proof...

His signature, his...
it's all over the documents,

and his papers,
and you two were spotted out.

What is your plan? Are you...

Are you gonna try
and steal my baby?

- I don't have any idea
what you're talking about.

- I don't know
what kind of games

you're trying to play here...

but they're not gonna work!

What is this, some kind
of insurance scam?

Where is he?

- Susie...

You got it all wrong.

- I've had it wrong
since the moment I met you.

- It's not me!

It's not Mike,
I've never even met Mike!

Because he's dead.

- No...

- Mike is dead.

- I almost wished it was him.

Just so I could see him
one more time.

Why should I believe you,
anyway?

- Because I can
tell you the truth.

I was about to go to college
and my mom got sick.

So I dropped out to stay home
and care for her.

That's when I got into debt.

Really bad debt.

At first,

he even introduced himself
to me as Mike.

Andrew.

He's been masquerading as Mike,

forging his signature.

- What?

- Andrew lent me money.

A lot of money.

But he was charging me
crazy high interest rates

and my situation just got
worse and worse.

When I couldn't pay,

he had me helping out
with some small time grifts,

making scam phone calls.

And...

the big one.

You.

- Me...

- The life insurance payout
Mike left you.

You know,

I didn't even want
to be pregnant.

But now, it's amazing
how protective you get.

Anyway,

I had to pretend to be some
guy's little sister.

Paul, someone Andy knew.

Paul had just gotten
out of prison.

Andrew got him in debt
up to his eyeballs too.

- That was Paul
on the motorcycle...

I knew that was his house.

- After I got pregnant,
something must have happened

because Andy got
really desperate.

He pulled together
some documents

so he could run as soon
as he got the money.

But I managed to grab
some of them,

to have something
to protect myself

in case something went sideways.

- Lorna, you've got to get me
out of these hand ties, hurry.

- Hey, sis.

I guess Lorna's been
filling you in?

- Yeah, she's told me how...

how badly
you've messed things up.

- Yeah.

I messed up and I messed up

and I messed up and I messed up.

And now I'm at
the end of my rope.

Don't.

- Andrew it's... it's okay.

We can talk about this.

- You don't understand.

I owe a lot of money to some
really, really bad people

and they're not just gonna
come after me.

One gamble would have paid off,
I would have been fine.

But I had to borrow and shark
just to keep them at bay.

Now they're coming after me.

- Andrew, you need
to pay these people!

- It is too late for that!
They're gonna come for me

and make an example out of me!

- Lorna!

- Ah!

Suze, get back here!

There's nowhere to run!

Suze!

Suze, where are you?!

- Okay, go, go, quick!

- There's no way out.

Come back here.

- What are you doing?

- There's gotta be
a paper trail.

I'm not gonna let him shred it.

Ah, this, Helen sent me
some stuff

but it doesn't tell
the whole picture.

I gotta find something else.

- What's this?

- Bingo.

- Michael Ashcroft.

- It's his signature but...

It's not right.

Holy hell, he really did borrow
a lot of money from these guys.

- They are coming for him.

- You dropped this.

- We already know
everything, Andy.

- You were never supposed
to see that.

- Push the table!

Lorna... dammit.

Let's try over here.

Um, try the elevator.

- Okay.

No...

- It's not working. Maybe here.

We have the roof key,
we can go to the roof,

there's gotta be a fire escape
or something--

- I don't do well with heights.

- Lorna... Madison.

When I first found out that
you were someone else online...

I saw someone who was generous,
who was kind,

who was brave.

You can do this.

- I can't let you go, sis.

- Just let Lorna go, please.

- No, not either of you.

- Andy...

Andy, I would have given
you the money

if you had just asked.

- It's too late for that now!

I gotta get away,

and I can't leave
any loose ends.

- What are you gonna do?!
You're gonna shoot someone?

You're gonna run away
from the police?

- I don't know!

Why did you have to be so nosy?!

- Grace!

- Andy! Andy, you're not
gonna shoot anybody.

- Grace, be careful.

- It's okay, it's okay, come on.

Give me the gun.

- I thought we had a plan.

- We did. We did.

Get rid of Susie.

And keep Lorna until
the baby's born.

- What?

You planned this?

- You make it sound so cold.

- Then what is it, Grace?

- Survival.

You have what we need,
a large enough lump sump

to disappear and never be found.

And a baby...

to share it all with.

- What about me?

We'll see how willing
you are to play ball.

You two go! Up the stairs! Now!

Hurry up.

Ah!
- Come on, Lorna! Run!

Ah!

- Ah!

Ow!

- Mike found out
the hard way too.

- You killed Mike?
- I didn't.

Andy did.

I genuinely like you Suze,

but we really need that money

and I really, really
want that baby.

- Grace, stop it!
She's my sister!

- And I'm your wife!

- Well, my flight
takes off soon.

- Where are you
heading off to first?

- Vietnam. Then off to Thailand,
then hopefully Malaysia.

I have some friends
who opened a bar there.

I'm gonna live
the good life for a bit.

- No one deserves it
more than you do.

- Well, I better get going.
- Okay.

Be good,
Michelle Lorna Ashcroft.

- Please be sure to send us
tons of postcards.

- You two are the top
of my list.

- Great.

You wanna wave goodbye?

Bye.

Hi!

Yeah.
