Faith.

Hi, Tom.

Been at John Davies'.

He died.

I'm sorry.

Faith, there's been a development.

They found Evan's car at Port Afan docks.

Okay.

Faith.

Hey, Tom.

Are we sure it's his car?

Yes, Mrs. Howells.

We've verified the chassis number.

There's no sign of any personal effects.

The car has been vandalized.

Any idea why he might have driven here,

a known suicide spot?

Ma'am, um... can we have a minute, please?

Fine.

Thank you.

There's no note as far as we can see.

So, um...

I saw Steve Baldini call at your house earlier this evening.

And I found a bullet at your house.

after the burglary.

Now... what was it doing there?

Somebody...

Somebody posted it through my letter box the night before

with a note saying keep quiet.

Why didn't you tell me?

Terry.

I-I'm gonna have to tell Williams.

Faith, you're not helping yourself.

Who's that?

D.S. Morgan, Swansea CID.

Whatever's happened to him, Terry,

it's nothing whatsoever to do with me.

Price.

I want you to start organizing a search.

Mrs. Howells, I'd like you to come with us.

I have a few things to clear up with you.

Are you arresting me, Susan?

Not yet, Mrs. Howells.

I thought not.

Terry.

Terry. What's going on?

Um, it's just a few questions. It's routine.

I suppose we should expect the worst.

You let me know.

Thank you.

Forty-eight hours ago,

we attended a burglary at your house.

A holster we found in your garden

is a good fit for a gun we found in Gelli woods last week.

Who might be the owner? You?

Your friend... Mr. Baldini?

He has a history with firearms, doesn't he?

He was on trial for conspiracy to commit armed robbery.

And found not guilty.

We found a wig too.

You care to share how long your husband has been wearing one?

Since he bought it, I suppose.

You traveled 20 miles to visit a dentist yesterday.

Dr. Meral Alpay,

the alibi witness in Erin Glynn's murder trial.

I had a toothache. This one back here.

And on the way back, you visited Mr. Baldini.

Dragged him off a building site. What couldn't wait, hmm?

Give me one good reason

not to arrest you on suspicion of murder.

You haven't got a body.

Not yet.

Don't touch me!

Miss.

I've got three children at home.

Where's your evidence?!

Where's your evidence?!

You're keeping me here out of spite!

Bitch!

Where's Faith? What's happened?

She's fine. And you are?

Lisa Connors, a friend.

A word, please?

Tell me what was going on between Mrs. Howells

and her husband before he went missing.

Nothing.

Every couple goes through the odd barren patch, don't they?

Having problems, were they?

No. No.

Well, Evan was seeing a counselor for stress,

but Faith didn't know anything about that.

Mrs. Howells ever mention owning a gun?

Seri... Seriously?

No.

Did you know Mr. Howells owned a wig?

Maybe.

Look, I'm not sure.

Tell me about Mrs. Howells' relationship with Steve Baldini.

There isn't one.

He might fancy her a little bit,

but there... there's no way she's interested.

But she and Evan slept in separate beds.

Listen.

Faith would crawl over hot coals for Evan.

And it was him that was going to strip clubs.

Tell me about that.

Faith didn't know anything about it,

not until after he disappeared, anyway, and...

Look. It was just the one, in Swansea.

Where's Mummy?

Well, we'll be in touch, Ms. Connors.

Yes. Lovely. Thanks.

Where's Mam?

She'll be back later, sweetie. She's just helping the police.

Uh, what did you hear just then?

Nothing.

Night, sweetie.

Good night.

Williams is here.

Come and look at this.

Shotgun cartridges.

He's not dead.

I know he's not.

Love...

...why didn't you tell me you've been taking pills?

Been going through my things?

No. No, no, no. They were sticking out your bag.

You must have done. You've got no right to.

What were you doing with napkin rings?

Sorry?

Is it the pills?

Are they making you do strange things?

Because maybe you should lay off them.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

- They were in your bag. - Oh, shut up, Terry!

Love, don't be like that.

I am not a child!

What do you want?

Is Faith in? She's not answering her phone.

No.

Come on.

She's been arrested.

And from what I can work out, that's mostly your fault.

I've just tried to help her.

Well, that worked well, didn't it?

Leave her alone.

Mrs. Howells.

You found him?

No. Let's go.

Right.

Strip clubs.

Things were getting a bit stale, were they?

These hobbies don't come free.

You're a sharp woman, Mrs. Howells.

You must have kept an eye on the family finances.

I know. I should have, shouldn't I?

But I didn't.

What's Baldini to you?

Revenge?

I know what you are to him.

Cashing out with you beats robbing post offices.

If you can find me five minutes in the day

when I can conduct an affair,

I'd be very grateful to you, Inspector.

Like most lawyers, Mrs. Howells,

you only like the facts that suit you.

You've never forgiven me, have you?

I'd like my phone call now, please.

In a minute.

Price, why haven't I got the forensics on Evan Howells' car?

Well, chase them up! What's wrong with you?

Ma'am, she is entitled to...

She can have it when I say she can!

Social services, please.

Come on, girls.

We're gonna be late. Right. Come on, then.

Okay. Yeah.

- He wants Mummy. - I know he wants Mummy.

Right. You need a hand?

- Um... - Yeah?

You look different, Arthur.

Scrub up all right, don't I? What you think? Huh?

Hey, Rhodri. Give us a smile, then, huh?

Mummy's been arrested.

- Has she? - Well...

Hey. Tell you what.

I'll come on the school run with you.

Have a bit of a sing-song. What do you think?

It might cheer him up a bit. Come on, then.

Come on! All aboard the Skylark.

Come on. Seat belts on.

Gonna be late.

Where's Faith?

She was arrested.

- What? - I've not heard a word from her.

So who's that?

He's asked not to be disturbed.

Cerys.

Oh. Hi, Cerys.

It's just some old correspondence.

Pedersen. Old client of mine.

Long gone.

Can I see?

No. It's confidential.

Family matters.

I promised him.

Hi. Where are you?

Oh, Jesus. I'll be there now.

I've got to go to Port Afan. We'll discuss this later.

What's the matter, Tom?

All I've got left

is the small amount of respect I've earned in this town.

Maybe it shouldn't matter, but...

...it does.

You'll always have my respect.

Thank you.

Could you leave me alone now, please, Delyth?

Faith Howells.

Number 3.

I need to speak to my client alone.

Now. Out.

Right. What have they got?

Um, they've got...

Sorry.

Sorry. They...

I'm just... I'm just really worried about my children.

Everyone's fine. I've spoken to Lisa.

The girls are at school. Rhodri's fine.

- Okay? - Yeah.

So just bits and pieces of circumstantial

and a lot of wishful thinking, right?

- Yeah. - Then there's no case.

That bitch is not gonna be happy until I'm doing 20 years.

- Faith, look at me. - Yeah.

Look at me.

Perspective. This is a try-on.

You keep zipped and we will walk.

- I promise you. - Good.

Good morning, Ms. Jones. Are you ready for us?

Fire away.

The morning after the burglary at your house.

No comment.

You don't look like a woman with toothache.

Half an hour later, you were here.

No comment.

And then you drove straight here.

Stephen Baldini... 28 previous convictions,

including possession of a unlicensed shotgun, theft,

burglary, and supplying a controlled substance to a minor.

No comment.

She's saying nothing.

You can charge her or release her.

There's no hurry.

You can go back to your cell for a while.

I've got 16 hours left in which to make up my mind.

Fine. If you lock her up, I'm going in with her.

Be my guest.

Come on, then.

Let's go.

"Let's go. Let's go. Let's go."

I need to see you.

I found Tom shredding documents this morning.

Claimed they were old papers from a case called Pederson.

- Pedersen? - Mm-hmm.

I found an empty file with that name on it.

- What kind of papers? - He wouldn't let me see.

He's the straightest guy I know.

Faith, that picture of you and Steve Baldini.

Oh, we were just going to have a shag behind the cement mixer.

I was asking him about Alpay.

I mean, I-I know. I know he has done bad things.

Oh. Guns. Drugs.

He's trying to turn his life around.

And he's...

He's kind.

He found out that Alpay is still working for the Glynns.

- As what? - That's all he said.

Good news, Mrs. Howells. We're releasing you on bail.

You're free to go for now.

Yeah, 'cause you've got no evidence.

You'll be lucky if we don't bloody sue.

I'm watching you.

Alys' history project. Did she take it in this morning?

No. O-Okay. Yeah. Yeah.

It doesn't matter.

Uh, my battery is about to die now, so I'll see you later.

Okay. Okay, then.

The children know I was arrested.

I've been telling them that he's gonna come home.

Faith, Evan's responsible for all of this, okay?

Much as I like the guy,

I think we've both got to accept that he's gone.

It's over.

Time to move on.

Yeah.

Well, when was that?

Call me back when you hear more.

How is your daughter-in-law standing up to the pressure?

I, um...

...heard about her association with Steve Baldini.

What do you make of it?

Tell me about him.

Hello.

I-I tried to call you.

Social services have taken the kids.

They came just after we spoke.

There was two women and a... and a policeman.

Rhodri was okay.

It was... They were... They were nice with him.

And they've already been to the school to get the girls.

Faith, I'm so...

I don't know what lies you and your protection team

have been told, Mrs. Foster, but my...

my husband has been missing for nearly a week now.

And I am all... I am all my children have.

They need me. They... They need me.

I'll be calling to your home later

to explain the situation.

Megan in particular...

Well, she's been in a very anxious state.

I'll need to collect some clothes...

This should never have happened.

Uh, would 5:00 suit?

- Yeah. - Good.

I'll see you then, Mrs. Howells.

Well, no. N-No. P-Please...

What did you tell them?

They just asked how the girls had been.

Let's hope it's all a misunderstanding.

My children.

♪ Gave you all that you needed ♪

♪ You're cut, but I'm bleeding ♪

♪ And all of my strength ♪

♪ I gave to you ♪

♪ I love completely ♪

♪ You lose, then you leave me ♪

Sorry. Sorry.

I was... I was just keeping an eye on the place.

That's all.

The gate was open, you see, so I...

And I heard you'd had a run-in with the law, like.

I helped, uh, Lisa with the drop-off this morning.

She was struggling.

You don't look well, do you?

You look smart.

Aye. You know, it's...

New shirt.

They've taken my children away.

Oh, that's... Jesus. I...

Come here. Come here.

Come here.

I've had social services on the phone three times

asking questions.

They have to.

I gave them Tom's number.

I don't know where he is.

He's upset.

He's convinced himself that Evan went to into the sea.

Like Alec Fenton.

He probably just needs some time, Mam, alone, to think.

Have you offered to have the kids?

I thought you might.

How much have you had?

I have a client to meet.

What can you do, Mam?

Just let it go.

Hello again.

It is you.

Weren't you looking for a family home last time?

Twins on the way?

Slight change of plan.

Oh.

Okay.

Right. So... here we are.

Ooh. That's... new.

Whatever floats your boat.

The owner is such a quiet little man.

Well, maybe we shouldn't look into the basement.

- There's a basement? - No.

Well, I don't know. Maybe there is.

It'll do.

Is the owner open to offers?

What are you thinking?

Ah, I have to crunch the numbers.

All a bit up in the air at the moment.

Your wife, she's, um, staying in London, is she?

That's where her boyfriend is.

Oh. I'm sorry.

That's her problem.

I can please myself, run my business from anywhere.

Here is as good a place as any.

Hey. Do you think he'd mind?

Uh... I-I don't know.

To not giving a shit.

To not giving a shit.

Sorry.

You don't want this flat.

- I don't? - No.

The neighbor is a grumpy cow.

The whole block is riddled with dry rot.

We can't shift the bugger.

You are my kind of agent.

One for the road?

Mm.

Yes, please.

Friend of yours or...

Here you are.

Evan defended the girl who shot him.

Erin Glynn.

Minor legend.

I'm surprised Evan got mixed up with her.

A client's a client.

Mm.

Especially if they're worth a bob or two, eh?

Oh, no. That's... That's social services.

Quick. You've got to hide. You can't be here.

You've got to hide. Go, go, go.

Shit.

- Mrs. Howells? - Yes.

Carol Foster. Good afternoon.

Thank you.

Oh, I see you've got their things ready.

That's very thoughtful of you.

Well, yeah. I'm... I'm their mother.

Now, then, Mrs. Howells, uh,

you've seen the grounds for the order.

Yeah.

The children have been removed to a place of safety

while we feel they're still in imminent danger.

Of what? Hmm?

Of having one too many Weetabix?

You're on police bail, Mrs. Howells,

for a very serious offense.

Your associate Mr. Baldini

has a history of firearm and drug offenses.

He's a client.

Well, we understand he's a regular visitor.

Since when have the courts...

Since when have they dragged children from their homes, then,

on the back of idle gossip?

When has that happened?

You're living here alone at the moment, are you?

Since my husband disappeared six days ago, yes, I do.

I see.

It's fine.

Arthur Davies, petty criminal and persistent vagrant.

I've moved in next door.

Arthur's just a friend. He's just called 'round.

- I see. - He's just a friend.

Unfortunately, Mrs. Howells, it seems we may have a way to go

before I can recommend the return of your children.

Well, I'll see you in court, then.

Yes.

Okay.

Nice to meet you.

Sorry.

What's the bloody point?

Aah!

Tom Howells. Evan's father.

Mr. Baldini?

Yeah. What can I do for you?

I believe you know my daughter-in-law.

Yeah. She's my brief, as was Evan.

The police suspect her of murdering my son,

together with you.

Social services have removed her children.

Why?

You could tell me what's been going on.

I told her I saw Evan getting into a car

with Erin Glynn and her cousins

in Swansea about three weeks ago.

Something about it didn't look right.

I've been looking around. That's all.

Do you have feelings towards Faith, Mr. Baldini?

No.

I mean, she's just a good person.

Like Evan.

Please stay away from her.

I'd be very grateful.

- What? - I know about the children.

I'm going to the police.

Screw Evan. Screw the firm. Screw everything.

I want my kids back.

Gail Reardon came to the kids' school

with a bag full of cocaine Evan had agreed to buy from her.

He's a lost cause.

Faith.

Faith!

Faith, wait a minute!

Faith! Wait!

I know why you're doing this, but it's not safe.

Believe me. Wait! Listen to me!

The Glynns just beat people up usually,

but the Reardons kill people.

The family's got tentacles all over.

They will find you, and they will bury you.

What do you suggest I do, then? Find 120 grand to pay it off?

Think about it.

Evan's not a criminal. You know that.

He's been tricked, used, whatever.

If Alpay says she knows something,

you've got to hear it.

What if he's still alive and being held somewhere?

If you go in there, it could mean a bullet in his head.

Okay?

- What are you doing? - I'm buying you some time.

- Go. Go! - What are you...

D.I. Williams, please.

Mr. Baldini. To what do we owe the pleasure?

You were looking for me?

Alpay, it's Faith Howells.

I've reconsidered your offer.

Evan helped me out of a tight spot.

I tried to repay the favor.

What did she want?

Mm. Don't look too bad, do I?

Evan had some heavy clients.

He'd wanted to know if I'd heard anything,

had he made any enemies.

- Had he? - Well, I said I'd look around.

Where were you last Wednesday morning?

Oh, I was up three flights of scaffold with a bucket of muck.

Do either of these belong to you?

No.

You have and guns have quite a history, Mr. Baldini.

Mm.

May I?

I'm offering to try this holster on for size.

I'm about a 44.

I'd say you were looking for a 38.

Why have you got shotgun cartridges at your home?

I used to go shooting... the odd rabbit, you know.

Without a license?

I used to borrow my mate's up at his farm.

You've heard about Mrs. Howells' children?

Social services don't much like the idea

of you being around kids.

They're worried about your little girl now.

I'm gonna have to tell them

you're still very much under suspicion.

Don't you dare.

You could try telling the truth.

Oh, dear.

Your temper is nearly as bad as your girlfriend's.

Oh. Heya.

Sorry I'm so late.

Daddy wants to know about Faith.

What about her?

Is she a serious suspect, Terry?

You must have had evidence to arrest her.

Tom, you know I can't discuss any...

We are family, Terry.

Her friend Baldini is a criminal.

All right. Um...

there was a gun was found in Gelli woods

and a holster in Faith's garden.

But that doesn't prove anything.

I can see why there was concern over the poor children.

You ring me.

Of course. Yeah.

What about us having the children?

How can we?

We've got lives of our own.

She's meeting someone tonight.

A woman called Alpay.

I'm going with her.

Out in the sticks somewhere.

Yeah. Will do.

That's your lot... 20k, give or take.

This is the stupidest thing I've done

since licking a toilet seat.

Dare.

It'll be dark. She won't even notice. Yeah.

How do we know she's gonna tell the truth?

She lied in a murder trial.

Chin up. What have you got to lose?

Our last 4k.

Might be the best money you ever spend.

There you are.

Dare you to run through the street naked.

Just your thong, then.

Someone on Facebook said a body had been found.

I don't think Bethan will take the children.

No.

She's not the maternal type.

I can't bear much more of this.

Come on.

Come on. Where is she?

Do you think you still love Evan?

- What? - After all this.

You pick your moments, don't you?

Stay down.

Twenty thousand.

Well?

Look. It was all a big mistake.

I never wanted to get involved with Dewi Glynn and the girl.

But I needed the money.

So... they paid me to give evidence.

A lot of money.

And afterwards, they offered me more, doing business.

What kind of business?

Pharmaceutical.

Evan did the deal between us.

I trusted him.

We were in the same boat with the Glynns.

And then some detective came knocking,

wanting money every week.

I told Evan. He said he'd deal with it.

Which detective?

A woman. Short.

- Who is that? - What?

That's just... It's just a friend.

I said only you.

- No, no. - You lied to me.

Come out. He's just...

Alpay, please listen. Please.

Please. Please.

Fucking shit. Please!

Alpay!

Bloody idiot!

I'm s-sorry.

Oh!

That's Alpay's car!

And your four grand, eh?

That's Williams.

- That's... - Get down. Get down.

- Come on. We've got to go. - No!

We can't just leave! We can't go!

She's dead. She's dead.

Think about your kids, all right?

You can't be seen to be involved with this.

We've got to go. You've got to go, okay?

Come on.

Oh.

There's been an accident.

They just... They shot off the road.

You need to go. Now.

You weren't here.

Williams must have...

Williams must have been tailing us, and, uh...

And Alpay, she said that she was paying...

she was paying off a corrupt detective.

She said she was... she was so frightened!

It was like she... she... she knew that something was...

We should have done something. We should have done something.

We should have done something, Arthur!

Williams would have called for help.

What could we have done? Huh? What could we have done?

Just drive the car. You're gonna be fine.

I promise you. You're gonna be fine.
