Original subtitles

It's more of a warning, John.

I've gone to the police.

With or without you.

You're having calf trouble.

We'll give you a lift.

Fia, I think he killed Harlequin.

I think he did it as a kind of warning.

I killed him, boy.

Tommy, why didn't you bury the body?

I had to get back for Whitewall crew.

This has now got out of hand.

It's out of control.

Why aren't you here?

I need somewhere to stay.

I had a row with my sister.

You didn't even met, John?

This is what these psychopaths do.

They'd manipulate everyone around them.

I know you sound insane.

Did you kill our cat?

Get her out of here now.

What an embarrassment of a wife you have, John.

No!

Tommy, no!

No!

I killed Angus.

This is the spot where the witches would be tortured

and then burned at the stake.

In fact, historical records show that more witches were executed in cold water

than any other town in Western Europe.

Don't check that.

It might not be true.

But let's move on to a more modern day murder.

The one you've all been waiting for.

Susie Bissett.

The body was found buried in these very woods.

Some people speculate that the killer was a drifter from out of town.

The one you've all been waiting for.

Others say that it was Susie's boyfriend, Brodie Dwyer.

A convicted drug dealer with links to the Glasgow underworld.

A necklace of Susie's with initials BD was missing from the cops.

Others still say that the killer stalks the streets of Coldwater to this very day.

But please, let me reassure you, Coldwater is a very safe place.

There's not been a murder here in nearly 25 years.

This is all ancient history.

What's that?

Is it part of the tour?

No.

No.

No.

Can you come ask me a police son?

Get the bus!

Daddy!

Daddy, where's mommy?

Been awake all night thinking about what you told me.

I can't believe I've been lying next to someone capable of that kind of violence.

I'm also kind of relieved.

Relieved?

It explains so much of the behaviour and the hostility and the withholding.

And I hate...

I really thought you hated me.

I don't hate you.

I've never hated you.

I'm the problem.

I'm sorry, Fi. I fucked everything up.

I promised Nathan I'd go to the police with him.

No.

You have to speak to a lawyer.

There isn't time for that.

There isn't time for that.

John, I sacrificed everything to move here.

For you.

My family, my friends, my career.

I did it all to try and save our marriage.

And right now, I really think that I'm not going to be a lawyer.

I've never been a lawyer.

I've never been a lawyer.

I've never been a lawyer.

I've never been a lawyer.

I've never been a lawyer.

I've never been a lawyer.

I've never been a lawyer.

I've never been a lawyer.

I've never been a lawyer.

I've never been a lawyer.

You have to speak to a lawyer.

There isn't time for that.

John, I sacrificed everything to move here.

For you.

My family, my friends, my career.

I did it all to try and save our marriage.

And right now, I really think you should consider doing what's best for us as a family.

Vy, I've been doing the wrong thing for years.

And look at how it's ended up.

I'm sorry.

I just have to go in there and tell the truth.

you still have to go in there come to you.

I need another woman.

Do I get this here?

Okay.

H-I am not sure of this...

He'sUR- equimあり..

Oh, my God.

Hello, love.

Did you sleep okay?

Yeah, I did, thanks.

Where's Dad?

He's just running a few errands.

Now then, would you like some scrambly eggs for breakfast?

That would be lovely, thank you.

That still makes you laugh.

You loved that as a baby.

So what was all that last night with the neighbours?

Oh, well, it's quite upsetting, actually.

It's that woman, Fiona.

She's, well, to be honest with you, Moira-Jane, since her and John moved here, it's been nothing but drama.

I mean, she's a raging alcoholic.

Well, she was screaming something to Dad about him killing her cat.

I know.

I know.

I mean, can you imagine your dad killing a cat?

No.

No, I can't.

No.

I mean, everybody accusing him of all sorts yesterday, and I've said it's because of that beard.

It makes him look very, very sinister, and I've told him to shave it off, but will you listen to me?

Do you want to come to church with me this morning?

Everyone would be delighted to see you.

No, thanks.

You'll find answers there that you won't find in therapy.

Come on.

Are you watching me sleep?

Well, I'm kind of.

Well, will you stop it, please?

Can we hang out today?

I'm working.

At the pub?

Yeah.

Can I come?

No.

You still don't believe me about John?

I don't think that John killed Angus.

No, I think that's insane.

You think I'm insane?

I just, I think your theory's insane.

Because you fancy John?

If, if Angus was murdered, it wasn't John.

Who killed him then?

You think it was my dad?

I, no, I never said that.

Why have you always hated him?

Oh, Cameron, just get out of my room.

Get out!

Now!

Hi, Maggie.

It's good to see you.

You're looking well.

Good morning, Rebecca.

Good morning.

Hi, John.

Good morning.

Come on in.

How are you, Rebecca?

I'd like to thank you personally for all your help last night.

What a palaver.

Is Tommy okay?

Is he here?

He's a little under the weather.

Well, give him my best.

I will.

I pray for him.

But we're all sad to hear that he's lost his faith.

Cameron, what a surprise.

Don't make a big deal about it.

Okay.

Take a seat.

Good morning, Rebecca.

Good morning.

I'd better go.

I do still love you, you know.

I love you.

I'll never stop loving you, no matter what.

Can you help us with our jigsaw, Daddy?

I can't at the moment.

Give me a hug.

Where are you going, Daddy?

It won't be long.

Just be good for Mummy.

Okay?

I'll help you with your jigsaw.

Come on, let's go upstairs.

This is my story, this is my song, praising my Savior all day long.

This is my story, this is my song, praising my Savior all day long.

The fim...

Yeah?

Okay, thanks, Danny.

You okay, John?

Do you have some of my private we could talk?

Why, have you heard something?

Look, it's not a good time right now.

There's been a body found in the woods.

It's Nathan Gillespie.

Hi, it's Tommy. Please leave a message.

It's my fault, Mum.

I got him killed.

I told Nathan what I saw.

I told him I saw John covering blood.

Just calm down now. Calm down.

We don't know what's happened to Nathan.

Of course we know what's happened.

John's killed him like he killed Angus.

Mum, we need to stop this. You need to believe me.

Please, Mum, tell me that you believe me. Please.

I should have said something.

What?

The morning after Angus's death,

John came to church.

He went up to be prayed for from your father.

What happened?

He was crying. He was, he was crying on your father's shoulder.

And then a little bit later, he fainted.

I just, well, I thought it was just because he was still recovering from his accident.

And now I'm thinking maybe it was guilt.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry I didn't believe you on this. I really am.

I think maybe you're right. I think perhaps John is a really dangerous man.

Nathan's dead.

It was Tommy.

What?

Why?

Because he's a psychopath.

What?

Why?

Because he's a psychopath.

But if what you're saying is true, then it's my fault.

How's it your fault?

Because he's killed him to protect me.

No, he doesn't care about you. He's done it to protect himself.

Because of me.

If I hadn't killed Angus, then none of this would have happened.

He's better dead because of me.

John, I don't think you killed Angus.

What?

How hard did you hit him?

Why are you asking?

Because I've seen the way you fight, John, and I think Violet could throw a harder punch than you.

It was a rock. I hit him with a rock.

He was dead, V.

But you only know he was dead because Tommy told you.

Yeah.

He wasn't breathing.

His face was covered in blood.

It was dark.

It was dark, wasn't it?

Yeah.

Whose idea was it to burn the evidence?

Tommy.

Why?

Don't you find it a bit strange?

That you go to someone, right?

Someone you barely know.

And you tell him you've killed a man and he says,

Oh, I'll get rid of the body.

Oh, he was being helpful.

A helpful neighbor lends you a power tool or a cup of sugar.

They don't generally offer to dispose of a corpse for you.

What are you saying, V?

I am saying, John,

that Tommy killed Angus

and then he killed Nathan

because he wanted to.

Because he's a killer

and you're a killer and you're not.

I know you, John.

And you're not a killer.

I'm not a killer.

You're not a killer.

You're not?

Yeah.

Mommy, can we watch TV?

No.

Um, yeah.

For an hour.

An hour?

Yeah, an hour.

Tommy, where the fuck are you?

Call me back.

Apparently,

Malky's given a statement to the police now.

They've closed off the site.

They think it's murder.

It seems so.

It's absolutely shocking.

After just losing poor Angus as well.

Who would want him underneath?

It's unbelievable.

No one's ever had a crossword with him.

I know, Muggie.

I know.

I know.

I did hear that he and John had...

What?

Pardon?

What is it?

Mm-hmm.

I won't breathe a word.

I shouldn't say it's against my nature.

I...

I did hear that he had an argument yesterday morning with John.

Your neighbour, John?

Apparently, they were having a very heated conversation in Benny the Badger's play park.

Now, what that was about, Muggie, I do not know.

But I remember thinking how strange it was when I heard about it.

Because...

Well, Nathan didn't know John, did he?

Good old thing so.

Oh, this is a sin.

Beatty.

Hey, Dad.

Are you okay?

I ran my car into a ditch.

It took me ages to get started again.

Is your mum not back from church yet?

You're not with her?

No.

Why not?

I had to run some errands.

She's not here.

What were you doing in the garage?

Oh, nothing.

You must have been doing something.

Well, I was just looking for, um, things from my childhood.

Childhood?

Yeah, just things I could take back to Glasgow.

Oh.

Feeling nostalgic, were you?

Yeah, I suppose, yeah.

There's nothing for you, is there?

Well, Mum's...

Your mum's wrong.

Tommy!

Tommy!

Oh, hello, love.

I didn't realise you were in.

Is everything okay, love?

No, nothing.

It's not okay.

It's, er...

Nathan.

They found him dead.

You're kidding.

No.

In the woods, apparently.

The police are there.

It's policed.

Do they think it's a...

a photo play?

I don't know, Tommy.

I think so, yes.

I'm just going to call Cameron to tell him.

Yeah, he already knows, darling.

Where is he now?

He's, er...

He's gone to the pub with Brick.

I should just call him just to check he's okay.

Okay, yes, that's good.

That's good.

Yes.

That's a really good idea.

Yeah, yeah.

What happened?

The time we got there,

they'd already found him.

What is going on with you?

You weren't like this when you were younger.

You used to be so clinical.

I know.

I know, I just feel a bit rusty.

But honestly, love,

this was beyond my control.

You were meant to be in church.

Everyone was asking where you were.

I had to take the long way around.

The police are everywhere.

We have to stop putting the blame on John.

Everybody already thinks he's a weirdo

and he looks like a murderer.

It's not going to work, love.

Think about it.

If he gets arrested,

the first thing he's going to do

is pointing a finger at me.

But nobody's going to believe him, are they?

Because you're an upstanding member

of the fucking church.

You might have an alibi.

I don't have an alibi.

I've already started the rumor.

Who'd you tell?

Maggie, when she knows everyone alone.

What's this about you losing your faith?

Who talked to that?

Williams.

A dirty real.

Is it true?

How can I still believe in God

after all that I've done?

Get your act together now!

Oh, that's absolutely shocking.

I've just spoken to Cameron

and he's very upset

so I'm going to go and see you.

Oh, it's so upsetting.

I think what we're going to do

is we're going to have

a prayer meeting tonight

at the church for Nathan.

That's what we all need

and it would be really good

for you to be there, Maury Jane.

Sure.

Take care, ma.

I will.

Bye-bye, my precious girl.

Bye-bye.

She knows something.

She doesn't know anything.

I can feel that.

Oh, what are you going to do, Tommy?

Huh?

You going to kill her too?

It's not the answer to every little problem,

you know?

You fool.

Oh, God.

Fuck.

I haven't had sex like that

since the Verve were at number one.

Fuck.

I can't believe it only took

two dead bodies

to get our sex life back on track.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Why did you do it?

What?

Sleep with Matthew.

I was lonely.

I didn't think you wanted me anymore.

Do you miss him?

No, of course not.

Did he make you laugh?

Not as much as you.

Fool.

Hmm.

I missed you so much.

I missed you.

What the fuck is that?

What?

He's gardening.

Like it's just another day.

He's just killed a man

and now he's trimming

his fucking lavender.

Hey.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

I'm going to kick his ass.

Tommy?

Tommy?

Tommy?

Tommy?

Hello, John.

What have you done?

What do you mean?

Nathan.

Oh, I know.

John!

What are you doing?

I just heard.

I just heard.

Tommy?

Tommy?

Tommy?

I just wanted to apologise for last night.

Um, I'm really sorry that I accused you of, um...

I was just very upset about Harlequin.

Fiona, it's me that should be apologising to you.

I'm so sorry I attacked you both.

My behaviour was...

Well, it was out of character, wasn't it, though?

Yes.

Completely unforgivable.

And Harlequin was such a beautiful cat.

I'm sorry that I didn't get to know him better.

Me too.

I take it you heard about Nathan?

We did, yes.

It's very sad news.

You knew him well, didn't you?

We did, yes.

Many, many years.

It's...

It's appalling.

It's horrific.

Stuff of nightmares.

Who do you think killed him?

My God, no, John.

Could be harmful to speculate at this point.

Best let the police get on with their job.

Killer can't be very bright, though.

I mean, you know, not even bothering to get rid of the body.

I'm sure they'll catch him in no time.

Do you know what I heard?

I heard that the body was found by a bunch of tourists

on Malky's murder tour.

I mean, honestly...

Sounds like the work of an amateur to me.

How about you keep your opinions to yourself, Fiona?

We're going to have a prayer meeting for Nathan at the church tonight.

It would be so lovely if you could be there.

We will be.

Won't we, John?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Wouldn't miss it.

We love cold water.

And this is our home now.

Did you see the way he looked at you?

He hates you.

Good.

I hate him.

The way you made his mask slip.

We should do that tonight.

At the church?

Let everyone see who he really is.

What do we do with the children?

We could bring them with us.

He won't hurt us in front of everyone.

Or we could just leave.

What, just pack up the car and go?

Yeah.

I don't want to do that.

I don't either.

So they know you killed Nathan.

You see, the problem is...

I would normally have you sort this situation out, Tommy, but...

You still like John.

So what if I do?

You're going to need to stop liking John, aren't you?

Because let me tell you something, Tommy.

I'm not spending the rest of our marriage visiting you in jail,

and I'm certainly not growing old without you.

So you need to harden your heart against that man.

Do you understand me?

Because I want this bloody nightmare over with,

and I want our lives to go back to what it was.

Perfect.

My heart is with you, love.

Always.

Always.

Let's go.

I'm telling you, John killed Nathan.

Everything's been getting worse since he moved here.

This used to be a nice place to live.

He couldn't have.

He was acting weird last night.

Do you notice that? Very shifty.

Everybody was weird.

It was a weird night.

Harry, what happened last night?

Tommy attacked John.

Tried to drown him in the hot tub.

You're joking!

It was John who attacked Tommy first.

Tommy nearly drowned her.

John's wife accused Tommy of killing the cat.

She's as mental as he is.

No, Brick.

John and Fiona, they're good folk.

And you shouldn't be spreading rumours like that.

So you think Tommy could really kill a wee pussycat?

Our pal Tommy?

I don't think Tommy killed the cat.

I think Fiona had too much to drink.

And I'm sure she regrets what she said.

So who do you think could have killed Nathan then?

I don't know.

It could be anyone.

It's John.

Yeah, we know nothing about this guy.

As soon as he moves here, people start dying.

What are you all talking about?

You know what we're talking about.

Everybody's talking about it.

Listen, I know you and him had a wee thing.

But you need to watch yourself.

You shouldn't be defending him.

They're saying it.

You didn't have a wee thing.

Nothing happened.

See him again.

They are saying he's a murderer.

Who's they?

Everyone.

Everyone's saying it.

They had a big argument in a play park yesterday, Nathan and John.

Yes, but who told you?

Rebecca.

Well, she's the last person that should be spreading rumours.

She's meant to set an example.

Well, she has to warn people he's her next-door neighbour and potentially a murderer.

Honestly, Katrina, your judgement of people is very poor.

By the way, we're closing early tonight.

There's a prayer meeting at the church and we should all be there to show our support.

It's time to stick together as a community.

I better still get paid for my full shift.

Why, because it's all about you right now, isn't it, Katrina?

Thank you for coming.

Please come in and take a seat.

Good to see you.

Fiona was talking about him being involved in violent confrontations in London.

She said he was always getting into fights.

Apparently, John beat this guy up so badly, he ended up in hospital.

That's why they moved up here.

He told me that like it was a funny story.

It wasn't funny to me.

See, I always knew there was something dangerous about it.

Dad, I tried to warn you.

Aye.

She's listened to you.

I can't believe I trusted him.

We need to do something about this.

Direct action.

Do you know what we're saying?

Whatever you think is necessary, I'm not going to stop you.

I've done enough damage already.

Oh, sorry, love.

We're closing early tonight.

Everyone's going to the church.

Okay.

MJ.

I was just looking for Cameron.

I think he's going to the church.

MJ, wait.

Please stop calling me MJ.

Nobody calls me that anymore.

I just wanted to check you're okay.

If I'm okay?

Yeah.

Like, how's your family doing?

Every time there's a drama in this town, you're always in the middle of it.

It's the same as the last time we lived here.

Nothing changes.

What?

I heard you slept with John.

I didn't fucking sleep with John.

And now everyone's calling him a murderer.

John hasn't done anything wrong.

It's just, I know he's your dad, but Tommy is, I'm sorry, I don't want to insult your family.

You don't seem as my dad anymore, so, what is it?

I was really convinced he was going to kill me until John intervened.

It wasn't the first time.

What do you mean?

He's attacked me before.

When?

Years ago, when we were teenagers.

What did he do?

He'd followed me home when I was walking alone one night.

He cornered me, pinned me against the wall, grabs me by the throat, started choking me.

When he'd turned up at my house the other night, it really felt like he was finishing the job he'd started ten years ago.

Why didn't you tell anyone?

Who'd believe me?

Tommy's got everyone in cold water wrapped around his finger.

I always thought it was me, I thought you hated me and that's why we fell out.

No, no, it was never about you, I just, I didn't want to be anywhere near him.

I always liked you, MJ.

Sorry, Moira Jane.

You can call me MJ.

Moira Jane's such a mouthful, I always hated that stupid name.

He, um, he said something weird to me that night, and I've never been able to forget it.

Don't be a whore, Katrina.

Whores get killed in this town.

Are you ready for this?

Be careful, you know what he's capable of.

It's busy.

He said John kicked the cat so many times they had to bury it in two separate boxes.

The guy's a total psychopath.

And somebody was saying he called Tommy undereducated.

Can you believe that?

A snob.

Okay, everyone.

Thank you for coming.

It's a very sad time, as we remember our dear friend Nathan, and of course, poor Angus as well.

Let's have a moment of silence and reflection before we begin our prayers.

Oh, hiya, Cameron.

Well, that's reassuring.

We have every right to be here.

This is our community, too.

What's up after this?

Can we go to the park?

No.

How long is this going to be?

Ah.

For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, forever and ever.

Amen.

Amen.

Thank you all so much for coming.

There's no rush to get out, so please stay for as long as you need to.

And if anyone requires any additional prayers, please talk to Tommy.

God bless.

I think you should go.

I'm glad to see you here.

Have people been talking about me?

I'm afraid so, but look, it's a load of rubbish.

Can I have a word, John?

Somewhere more private?

It's fine.

It's fine.

It's fine.

John, there's a lot of people pointing the finger at you here tonight.

What are they saying?

That you were seen arguing with Nathan the day before he was killed.

I wasn't arguing.

We were just talking.

It would be good if you had an alibi.

I was at home with Fiona.

Are people seriously saying I killed him?

There's all sorts of talk going around.

People are saying that you beat a man half to death in London.

That's why you moved up here, to avoid arrest.

That's not true.

Who said that?

Tommy?

Did Tommy say that?

John, I don't believe you killed Nathan.

I really don't.

But you need to watch your back.

My superiors in Glasgow are on their way up here,

and they're going to want to talk to you, okay?

Just don't go anywhere, okay?

I'm ready.

John.

Glad you could make it.

It's good to see you again, Tommy.

Can I do something for you?

Maybe.

Maybe.

Would you like me to pray for you?

Well, actually, could I pray for you?

I don't need a prayer, Ray and I, John.

Do you think the Lord would see it that way?

I thought you were an atheist.

I'm starting to think there might be something there.

Remember that night you prayed for me?

Yeah.

I remember it well.

A lot happened that night, didn't it?

I certainly did.

I felt like I'd made a friend for life.

I felt the same way.

You taught me

how to pray.

So maybe I can return the favor.

Sorry.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Lord God, thank you for bringing us together in this place, and thank you for bringing

Tommy into my life, and I pray that you help uncover the evil that's in our community.

Tommy, like all of us, Tommy is weak, broken, full of sin, full of hatred, full of violence.

Help Tommy find the courage to do what's right.

Help him to repent.

You brought this on yourself.

What?

What did I bring on myself, Tommy?

Thank you so much, John, for your prayers.

It's really appreciated you need to leave.

Go, go, go.

Right, put your seatbelts on.

Fia, I'm sorry.

He nearly cracked.

I thought I had it.

Yeah, but now the whole town's against us.

What did Bobby say to you?

Look, I said...

Get him!

Jesus!

Go, go, go, go!

Quick, quick, close the door!

Put your seatbelts on.

Go, go, go, go!

Oh, my God!

Leave us alone!

Leave us alone!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

You're a fucking killer, John!

Leave us alone!

Get away, someone!

Run!

Run!

Hey, stop!

No!

It's okay.

It's gonna be all right.

Get back here!

Stop!

It's just a misunderstanding.

John?

You okay?

It's over now.

Get your family home.

Are they gone?

All clear.

This has to work now, Tommy.

Yeah, well.

You must be tired.

Mm-hmm.

Come on.

Let's get some sleep.

Just want us to be over with now.

We're nearly there.

We're nearly there.

It's all right, sweetheart.

There's nothing to be scared of, okay?

Those men aren't coming back.

They just thought Daddy was someone else.

Okay?

I love you.

Now try and sleep, okay?

Snuggle up.

Snuggle up.

Bye.

We can't live like this, John.

We have to get out.

We have to get out.

Maybe, maybe we could get some police protection or something.

But we don't want the police involved until we know for certain I didn't kill Angus.

No, of course you didn't kill Angus.

But we can't prove it to the police. We need evidence.

No one wants us here, John.

No one wants us here, John.

Can I come and speak to you for a minute?

Please.

For my daddies.

Come in, quick.

I saw what happened.

Cameron is basically a good guy.

He's just lost his way.

And Mum is lovely.

She hates any kind of conflict.

Dad is...

Dad is different.

There's always been something different about him.

Your cat.

It had a collar with a bell.

Mm-hmm.

Was this it?

Yes.

I found it in a jewellery box in our garage.

I knew it! I fucking knew it!

And, look, that is Angus's necklace.

There's loads of other jewellery in there, but none of it is Mum's.

I know this ring.

It's Nathan's.

Are you sure?

Definitely.

I saw it when he grabbed me.

Who do all the other things belong to?

Who are we living next door to?

I've heard enough.

We need to take this to the police.

But all we've got are photos.

They don't prove anything.

Then we have to get that box.

It's the only way to stop him.

It's the only way to stop him.

Are you washed in the blood?

Oh, are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

Are you fully dressed in His Christmas hour?

Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

Oh, will your soul be ready for the pageant's bright

And be washed in the blood of the Lamb?
