All language subtitles for Protection [01x01] Episode 1.1

Amy?

Thought it was them.

Well, next time it might be.

Where were you going?

Come on.

Protected person J has been recovered.

Repeat, she's safe and on the way back in.

Stand down alarm.

What were you thinking, Amy?

We were worried sick.

She alright?

Had some idea about going to see her grandma.

Scared herself more than she scared us.

Yeah. Amy, love, come here.

At least she's okay.

She's had enough.

We all have.

She misses her old life. It's normal.

You think I don't?

Do you know me mum's ill?

I can arrange a secure visit.

And what if she gets worse suddenly before then?

What am I supposed to do while you're filling out forms?

When we first met, I offered you and Jimmy a deal.

Come into witness protection and I'll keep you all safe.

The trial starts tomorrow.

In two days, Jimmy will testify

and after that you'll be away.

You can start again, new life.

And that awful mess he was part of will be washed away.

Will it though?

Be washed away?

You've done so well, Helen. You all have.

You've just got to get through it now.

You know what Eddie crowther is capable of.

So until the trial's done, I need to keep you hidden,

to keep you safe.

It'll be alright, love.

As long as we stick together, it'll be right in the end,

I promise.

Thought you were dropping her at mine.

Well, I was, I mean, I would have.

I was gonna miss my exam, so I rang dad,

told him to meet me here instead.

If you're okay with that?

Yeah, sorry, love, I just...

Have you got everything?

Sheet music.
-She's got it.

Right, and you needed rosin for your bow.

I'm fine. I'll see you next week.

Right, okay.

Good luck, darling, love you.

I've got to get straight to work, dad,

so will you be alright?

I'll be better, now that he's leaving.

We've done multiple dry runs, checked for ambush points.

Liz has triple checked everything.

Support...
-hello, nyles,

I take it you didn't get much sleep.

All worked out in the end though.

The girl hadn't contacted anyone from her old life.

Helen's on the verge of a nervous breakdown,

but just 48 hours to go now.

Kohli says her dad might be in the witness box

for three days.
-I've spoken

to the prosecution team,

told him we'll use a different handover point each day,

you know, to avoid any patterns that could be tracked.

Want me to assign more officers?

No, there's too much at stake.

Stick to the usual protocol.

Raj and I should be the only ones

who know the witnesses' location.

Done.

There we go. Hey, do you know what?

I think I've left the scans at yours.

I'll pop round and get them

before your doctor's appointment.

Will you miss me when I'm back on my feet?

My days will be a gaping void, dad.

Going for a run.

Hey.

Did you take that one yourself?

It's good. You've got a good eye.

My sister, con is ton.

We used to go every summer until mum died.

Do you ever think about disappearing?

What, and leave all this behind?

When I was a kid, my dad took me fly fishing in Norway.

Spent a whole week in the wilderness.

Didn't see another soul.

We should go there, together.

Funny 'cause I thought you should be heading home

about now, you know, to your wife.

Tonight maybe, but that might change.

Take some advice, detective sergeant.

Don't make promises you can't keep.

Mr. Nyles.

Is that your sister?

Yeah, she's on her way.

Nice to see you again.

Come on in.

Okay.

Are you expecting anyone?

Go to your room, you.

If you sit, you'll go to bed and you'll stay there.

Go on.

Mum, someone's out the back.

Mum!
-Don't shout.

If you want me, come down, please.

No, Barney! No, Barney!

You've shown some improvement since the stroke,

but it's been uneven, which is why I ordered these scans.

Frankly, I was concerned we'd find something like this.

But dad's only 75.

I have dementia patients who are a lot younger than sid.

How quickly will it come on?

We need more tests,

but what we've seen so far does suggest

relatively rapid onset.

There must be something we can do.

I mean, I read about people

you don't know a bloody thing.

Stay out of it.

Sid, I realise dementia is a word

that no one wants to hear from their doctor.

Are there any questions you'd like to ask me?

Sorry, I know the appointment was for half nine,

but my eldest has got flu.

Have I missed anything?

Can't see how a second opinion would hurt.

It just means more tests, more stress for dad.

I need the loo.

Alright.
-It's just at the end, dad.

I can't wait.
-Nearly there,

nearly there.
-Bloody hell.

Here we go. Let's get you in.

No, you won't. I can still piss by myself.

Yeah?
-Are you alright, dad?

Yeas. Leave me in bloody peace.

When you took this on, you thought

it was gonna be short term.

He'd get some physio for the stroke, he'd get better.

But now...
-sorry, I need to get this.

Raj?

Boss, we got an alert at 72 hedge wood road,

firearms incident in progress now.

Three shot... two male, one female.

Dead?
-I dunno.

The scene's only just been cleared by firearms, so...

Who's in charge?
-It's dci wheatley.

Ms. Nyles.

I've been talking to your ds,

but he's extremely cagey about what's going on,

so I'd appreciate it if you could shed some light.

It's a safe house sheltering,

a protective witness and his family,

subject to strict secrecy orders,

which I trust you will respect.

What kind of witnesses are we talking about?

Liz?

Is that your witness?

Is that your witness, Liz?

No, it's a cop.

I work with him.
-I'm sorry.

I need to contact my dci.

Brandice?

How is he even here? I mean, it's not his case.

He shouldn't even have known the location of the house.

There'll be a good reason, there has to be.

What?

Contact the hospital and call through to the icu.

Explain the situation.

Tell them that we are gonna need a status update asap.

Well, we need to contact his family.

Well, that's the dci's job, so call him as well

and bring him up to speed.

Alright.

Thanks.

Assuming from a different weapon.

In addition to the female victim in the kitchen,

we have two adult males.

They have a daughter, a 12-year-old.

I'll chase it up, but presumably she was at school.

First male victim... alive,

but unconscious when police arrived, carrying an ID,

which names him as detective sergeant Simon Thomas Browning.

Presumably a cover name?

Anything else on him other than ID?

Two smartphones.

One work, one personal.

The other victim, mid-40s,

already deceased when the firearm squad entered.

Premises appears to have been searched, ransacked,

but there's nothing obviously missing.

This was a professional hit.

So if I'm gonna make sense of it,

I need you to tell me who the victims really were,

as much information as you can give me.

Which at this point is nothing.

Yes, you need to speak to your dci first,

I understand that, but...
-yeah, you're right.

I don't have the authority to discuss these matters,

but even if I did, I need to know what happened here first.

Are you serious?
-Whether there's a threat

to other protected persons.

So there's an officer dying, he's one of your team,

but you are gonna obstruct my investigation?

You said Amy was at school.

Well, that's her bag, and that's her blazer.

Amy?

Amy?

Amy, it's Liz.

My god.

Sweetheart.

Are you hurt, are you alright?

You're alright.
-The firehouse boys

told me the house was secure.

Get the paramedics back here.

They went through the place.
-Just get the paramedics

back here now.
-Go.

Come on, darling.

I got you.

Okay, I got you.

She's a witness now to two murders.

Yeah, a witness now subject

to a high level of potential threat

who's under my protection.

How's that gone so far, people under your protection?

I will talk to her,

and if she's seen anything pertinent to your investigation,

I will pass it on.

If you want to challenge our jurisdiction over her,

you're gonna have to go to the chief constable.

Yeah, I'll do that.

She's covering her own arse.
-Inevitably.

But not for long.

You hear anything from the hospital?

Not yet.

Has she said anything?

Hasn't spoken. Shock.

I mean, the paramedics say she's fine physically, but.

Amy, I am so, so sorry, love.

Can you tell me what happened?

Did you see who did this?

If you can tell me anything you saw,

it would be a great help.

It's alright, love, you're gonna be alright.

Raj is gonna take you to a safe place.

Something must have gone wrong with our security protocols.

But right now you focus on Amy.

So find a place we haven't used before

and I want you to stay with her at all times.

She needs a social worker, Liz.

Yeah, and that'll be arranged.

But even when it is,

even if the royal marines are deployed,

I do not want you to let that child out of your sight,

do you understand?

Yeah.

Gemma?

I hope I'm not intruding.

I'm Liz.

Liz nyles, I work with Paul.

The doctors, are they

he's just coming out of theatre now.

Did he say anything to you about what he was doing

this morning?

Just that he had an early start at work,

a meeting with someone.

You didn't hear anything after?

He got up to make me a coffee, but.

I didn't even get up with him.

Who did this to him?

We've got some ideas, but I can't say for sure.

I am gonna find out, I promise.

Mrs. Brandice, you can come through.

The crowther trial has been adjourned

as the star witness will not be taking a stand tomorrow.

Although the reasons for that request were not made public...

Sorry, miss, secure area.

Here you go.

Apologies, inspector.

Liz.

Liz.

I need to talk to you.

Three years I built this case, Liz.

Three years.

Who would crowther have used for the hit?

I could give you a list as long as me arm,

there'd still be names I'd miss.

You heard of crowther having bent coppers on the payroll?

Jesus, I'm not psd, Liz.

Yeah, I know, but you've had the crowther brief

for nearly a decade.

We both know you've heard stuff.

Stuff you can't pursue, let alone prosecute.

Rumours.

That's what I'm asking for.

See, a guy like crowther,

be a miracle if he's not managed to twist a few cops.

I haven't heard any specifics.

What the hell did you say to mit?

If you mean wheatley...
-I've had her on the phone,

shouting about obstructive behaviour.

I just stated policy.

We can't open a file on a protected person

without considering the wider security issues.

But there is such a thing as interdepartmental politics,

and we may need the investigative team on site.

What have you found here? Data breaches,

inappropriate file access?

Tell the detective inspector what you told me.

Go on, sue. He's your partner.

Early this morning, ds brand ice was with me.

We were running through the court schedule

of one of our witnesses when he got a phone call,

said he needed to go, something to do with one of his kids.

Anyway, he seemed rattled.

A call from the mclennans?

Or crowther ordering him over there.

They're outside.

Put them in the conference room.

We'll be through in a minute.

Liz, is there any chance you slipped up here?

I follow protocols always.

I've been putting you forward to take over here

when I retire because I know you've got what it takes.

But there won't be a unit to run unless we weather this.

So I need you here with me.

Clear eyed and strong.

Yeah?

Alright?

They're waiting.

Then let's go and face the music.

Come on.

Thanks.

Dci kapoor, di nyles, you already know these two.

And this is dci Amanda kelman, professional standards.

So arun, this business at the safe house.

We all want it cleared up quickly.

But if Hannah's gonna do that,

she's gonna need you to open your files.

We're trying to protect the people under our care.

Will di nyles even be staying on this case,

given she had responsibility for the safe house?

Di nyles has my full confidence.

She knows the case, she knows the child,

and she's the best officer I have.

Sir, if one of the people killed today

was the crowther witness, as has been suggested in the media,

then I need to know it.

You need facts, not rumours.
-Yeah.

With regards to the girl, there's an easy compromise.

Arun, you open your files to mit,

but the girl stays in your protective custody.

Will that work for you, Hannah?
-As long as arun

can guarantee me access to the witness,

then that's...
-the witness

is a deeply traumatised 12-year-old.

So we make her available for questioning

by Hannah's team when she's settled down,

say first thing in the morning.

Agreed.

Okay, so those files, please.

Thank you.

Notwithstanding

the detective chief inspector's confidence,

we will also want to interview di nyles

and her partner, ds kohli,

as part of our homicide investigation.

Obviously we're running a security review,

checking all digital and hard copy file access to...

To ascertain whether there's been

an internal security breach.

Don't protection officers work in pairs?

As a rule.

And your partner is ds kohli?

But the officer that was shot at the safe house...

Detective sergeant Simon Browning.

Real name ds Paul brand ice.

Whatever his name, there's no mention of a third officer.

The officer in question was not working that case.

You mean he had no legitimate operational reason

for being at the safe house?

None that I'm currently aware of.

When were you planning on sharing

that little bombshell, arun?
-As I said, we're in the process

of ascertaining why he was there.

What have you found?
-He came to work early,

met with his partner, and then left suddenly

after receiving a phone call.

We assume then he travelled to the safe house.

I'm told there was gunshot residue

on the detective sergeant's hand,

suggesting he fired a weapon.

Are witness protection officers in the habit

of carrying firearms?

Well, we'll be seeking a warrant to retrieve core records

and positioning data from the two phones found with him.

Might be helpful for all of us

to know what ds brand ice had been up to

over the past few days.

What the hell's going on?

There's some sort of business fair on in town.

I'm struggling to find an apartment.

Well, try harder,

'cause you can't leave a traumatised child

in the back of your bloody car.
-Yeah, boss.

No offence, but your security requirements

for what qualifies as a suitable accommodation

is really, really fussy, okay?

Resulting in two deaths

and a third victim fighting for his life.

But worse was to come when police announced

that the shootings appear to be linked... Hello?

Hi.
-Liz.

Major heroin trafficking charges.

Why have you not answered my calls?

Sorry, things came up at work.

Right, hiya.

What's going on?

Talk about bringing your work home, will you?

It's only temporary till I can find something

more suitable.

Can't imagine what that must be like.

Both her parents.

Make me think about mum.

Mind you, we still had dad.

Whether that was a good thing or not.

He tried.

Sometimes.

Today he asked whether he could move in with me.

What did you say?

You know the situation, dec won't have it.

Simple as that.

You should go home, it's getting late.

Dec'll be missing you.

Yeah.

Call you tomorrow.

Okay, love.

No!

It's alright, you're okay, you're safe.

Shh.

You're alright, you're safe.

Alright.

I'm gonna keep you safe, I promise.

You're not supposed to have that.

Right.

Give up the things I love so I can live longer.

Doing what?

Bloody silly idea that is.

You sing anymore?

In the car sometimes.

It's a shame.

You were always happy when you were singing.

I hated it.

I only did it 'cause when I sang, you looked proud.

Thank you.

For calming her.

I just gave her ice cream.

Dad.

You ever heard of and Amanda kelman?

I knew everyone.

Trouble is, can I remember them?

Since the stroke.

That'd be the drink, dad.

Get yourself to sleep?

Prof... professional standards.

Cop who liked busting other cops.

Yeah.

Tough case, that one.

Yes, sue?
-Sorry it's so late,

ma'am, but you wanted me to e-mail you

the preliminary crime scene report.

W... anything interesting?

Ballistics confirmed that the victims were all shot

with the same weapon.

Beretta 9 millimetre.

But there was also one round fired from a sig sauer p226.

Also, they've been through brandice's house,

but they still haven't found the third phone.

Ma'am, you still there?

They haven't found his car yet?

I'm gonna give them a call.

I don't think they'd know that our vehicles

are registered to shell companies.

So it must be near the safe house.

Let me do that, yeah?

Hey. How's he doing?

His blood pressure crashed earlier.

He's awake now. You can go in.

Hey, could I get a moment, please?

Sure.

Paul, it's me.

You need to tell me what's going on

because the way it looks...

They sent me there.

Who sent you?

Crowther?

Have you been following me?

Have you been using me?

'Cause you need to explain, because I am drowning.

It's not like it seems.

I need you to step away, please.

Don't... Don't trust anyone.

Paul, Paul.

Paul, can you hear me? Can you hear me?

Stay with us.
