Daniel, come on!

Hurry up!

Where are we? Just come on!

Daniel?

I didn't know you were posh. Shut up.

Rose?

Mum, hi.

It's very early.

This is a friend of mine here.

Well, he needs somewhere to stay.

A few problems.

Just a couple of days. My place is too small.

Yes, it is.

What is your friend's name?

David.

Hello, David.

Hi.

Where's Dad?

He's away until Thursday.

Rose, don't gobble your food.

Look. I've got to go.

You're leaving me here.

I've got to go into work. Just stay here and we'll sort things out later, OK?

And you stay here.

OK? Yes, dear.

David can tell me all about it.

I'll be good.

Mr. Roxton?

Yes?

That's my son.

Your kid's really done it this time.

He's no allocator.

Oh, he so is.

Why would he do that?

Oh, maybe Callum wouldn't help him play.

Maybe Danny Boy felt like he was out of practice.

You were going to release him. Things have changed.

Oh, yeah, things have changed.

Home Office isn't going to take the blame for this.

You are. Oh, right, thanks.

CGR, he has become an embarrassment.

Seems that these days every old lag -a -lie got framed.

Every bloody month we have to turn someone loose. It's embarrassing.

We've had enough.

So Daniel Barrington can't be innocent, and luckily enough he isn't.

You screwed up.

And now we get to screw you with a clear conscience.

How are you going to do that?

Give my best to Rose.

Hello. You okay?

They said I had to go in there.

But then Callum's dad came. Right.

Are you... Are you Callum's girlfriend?

I'm very sorry.

Why would anyone kill Callum?

He's lovely.

I'm sorry, Kitty.

Somebody did something to him. Mr. Roxton, my name's Maloney. I work for

Criminal Justice Review Agency.

You keep away from us.

You did this.

I'm sorry?

Why couldn't you leave it alone, you stupid bastard?

Can't you see what they've done now?

They?

Who do you mean, they?

I just want to say to Daniel, please think.

There's someone here who would like to speak to you.

Um... Daniel.

Whoever or whatever has persuaded you to run away, don't do this.

Don't ruin your life looking for something that isn't there.

We've all made terrible mistakes, but you need to think about how worried

are that you've done this.

Please, Daniel.

Please be sent.

Give yourself up and talk to the people who are here to help you.

Nothing on in the morning?

Well, you can make yourself useful then.

Can you use a saw?

Yeah.

Fine.

Somebody cut his throat.

You can guess who they're saying, can't you?

Look.

Identical injuries.

I don't think there's much doubt.

No fingerprints.

But they found this shoe with UV detection and the blood spray.

He's not as clever as he thinks he is.

The police are not too happy. They seem to think we encouraged him.

Wendy, I didn't do anything to make him run away. You were told to stay away

from him. You didn't.

Now his friend's dead, he's on the run, and I'm going to the Home Office to

explain why they shouldn't close down this agency pending an official inquiry.

Darling,

we have a rather splendid time.

Did you get the day off?

I want a word with you. Upstairs, please.

Thank you, David.

Thanks, Mum.

He doesn't seem the type to get into bother.

Well, he is.

I was always sorry I never had a son.

You say the nicest things, Mum.

Give me your trainers.

Why? Just do it!

And then your clothes.

I'm not giving you my clothes.

Look, somebody killed Callum Roxton last night and they think it was you. His

throat was cut.

Callum's dead.

I would quite like not to go to jail, so I'll have your clothes in case there's

evidence on them. I've got you some stuff from Mark's. Just give me a

What are you talking about? Just leave me alone, you stupid cat.

Daniel, Christ knows why, but I am risking everything, my whole career, for

So just tell me something. Why me? What are you doing here?

I like you.

Okay?

You know where my family live.

I need to speak to Matt.

Why?

I get really confused.

My caseworkers, they said I must have been remembering another time because

and Callum weren't with me.

They said it so many times, I just believed them.

I was evading the truth, trying to get out of it.

There by myself.

I have been so messed up now for such a long time.

Matthew and Callum were with you.

Is that why Callum's dead?

That's why you were here, Daniel.

I'm the one.

I'm the one you tell the truth to.

What are you thinking?

I don't know.

I don't remember any of this. Well, you must have talked about it, Daniel, not

remembering. To counsellors, psychologists.

They say I disassociate. I go somewhere else in my head when bad things happen.

What do you remember?

We went to the ham.

Um, Matt was squeezing my hand. The signal.

What? The signal.

That everything was okay, that the game was okay.

And then?

Then... Nothing.

I can't remember anything until Mr. Towns.

How bad he looked.

It's not enough, Daniel.

The game.

How much longer can you hide from all this, Daniel?

Did you always do what Matt said?

Matt's clever.

He's not like me.

You know, he explains stuff.

How to be good at school, how to get people to like him. He knew how to make

mum and dad like him.

Rose?

Look who it is.

Well, here we all are then.

I'll make some tea.

David, come and help me.

I don't think he'd kill Callum Roxton.

Oh, what a relief.

I'll have a cup of tea and be on my way then. He ran off after the football

match in Swindon at 5pm. He'd have had to get to Dulwich, kill Callum, find his

way to my flat, all without money.

The tracks on his shoes don't match forensic prints.

Rose, call the police. There is something here.

Callum and Matthew know what happened to Arthur Downes.

Callum was worried enough to try and warn us off, and now he's dead. We need

speak to Matthew.

Rose, no.

Please.

Why is he bleeding?

He's bleeding from the head. Look.

Look.

Somebody's whacked him.

Is there anything in his medical records?

We don't have them anymore. Your friend Bruce has got them.

Was he knocked unconscious?

That's why he doesn't remember.

We need to speak to Matthew.

I like winter panties. Yes, they're nice and colourful.

Go away.

My husband will be back from surgery.

I thought maybe the police would be watching your house.

Daniel doesn't know where we live.

We have a button to press and the police will come. A panic button?

In case your son comes?

You know nothing about my family. You're right.

I'm sorry.

How's Matthew coping?

Please.

Go away. I wondered if I could have a word with you.

You can't.

He's gone.

Gone where?

Where's he gone?

Oh, he's run away.

He's scared.

Of Daniel?

Aren't you going to answer that?

I know you're not supposed to be here.

Go away or I'll call the police.

Not in Canada because of you!

for coming to my flat yeah well i'm not too keen to be seen with your rose you

are kind of unfashionable

don't

have much time for housework then what's wrong with it okay so business

Let's try not to be coy, Rose. I know you want something.

I'd like to see Daniel Barrington's medical report.

I think he might have been unconscious when Arthur Towns was killed.

No chance.

That material is being reviewed by the Home Secretary.

What does that mean, Bruce?

It means that we're making sure you can't cause any more strife till the

safely banged up again.

You're going to suppress evidence?

Nobody's suppressing anything.

He's guilty and he's still killing people.

You were petrified about a CJR investigation before Daniel escaped.

The Home Secretary is bringing in crackdown legislation.

He wants to be vicious and popular.

So what's going to happen?

Oh, we'll probably use this crisis to cut CJRA funding and build more prisons

instead.

And it's all down to you.

I know you've got a dossier on me, Bruce.

Right. Don't make me use it.

And no, you can't have the reports.

Well, in that case, we can go to bed.

I did change the sheet.

Well, you wouldn't sleep with me if I gave you what you wanted.

Of course not, Bruce.

Ever heard of integrity?

A bit old labour.

Do you remember me?

Yeah.

Will you let me sit down?

It's a terrible thing to lose a son.

I should never have let him come back.

But he got into King's.

It was my old college.

Is Mrs.

Roxton...

She died.

Four years ago.

She was sad.

Why?

She didn't like Toronto.

Mr. Roxton, Matthew and your son said they were at your house with Mrs. Roxton

the day Arthur Towns was killed.

Is that true, or did something else happen?

Please.

Go away.

My son is dead.

He was a good lad.

Nobody can say anything else about him.

It's over.

Don't you understand?

Those brothers, they're the devil.

Well, I've done it before, haven't I?

Take out the sheets.

You shouldn't tell me dips, Rose.

I know quite well who he is. I'm not entirely stupid.

Daniel, can you wake up?

I think you've had a little accident. It's OK, it's no problem.

But we need to change the sheets.

Honestly, he won't speak to you. I tried.

You didn't try hard enough.

Mr. Roxton?

Do you require a minibar replenishing?

You're only good with locks.

You're not going to break in.

What do you suggest?

Oh,

Christ.

He's dead.

Imipramine and vodka.

He wasn't kidding about, was he?

Why would he have done this?

He's lost everything.

And all because of a lie they told.

The parents protected their kids and they managed it for ten years.

But Daniel's grown up and he doesn't want to keep their secret.

I should have spotted he was going to do this.

Can't foresee everything.

Maloney, we're not supposed to be here.

Just look around, see if there's a note.

What?

He's dead for Christ's sake we can't just leave him here and shall we hurry

about it

What

you doing I Trust my daughter

And that's why I'm helping you.

But don't you dare make a monkey out of her, or I'll remove your bollocks, Mr

Barrington.

Sorry.

She said she found my brother. She's just, um... She left me here.

Well, you can go any time you like.

But I don't think you'd get far, would you, Daniel?

No.

What do you want?

If you could just tell us, Katie, how long you and Callum were together.

Not that long.

A while.

Did he tell you what was worrying him? No.

He didn't tell me anything.

He was scared, that's all.

Of what?

What about his friend, Matthew?

Was he scared of Matthew?

Scared of Matt?

He said he was his only friend.

They used to talk on the phone. Why would he be scared of him?

They had a secret, Katie.

I think Matthew thought that Callum was going to tell.

I don't know.

I don't know about any of this.

Did he ever mention Daniel Barrington, what they did, something that happened

when they were younger? I never... I never heard about Daniel Barrington

last night.

Thank you.

If you do remember anything, please ring me.

It's important.

Sounds as if he was a nice person.

He was.

Thanks.

Why would Cullen be scared of you?

Jesus, they think you did it.

You killed him.

We've run out of road, Rosie.

I know.

Maybe Matthew killed Callum, maybe Daniel had something to do with it, I

know, but we can't just let them be out there anymore.

You're going to have to turn Daniel in and hope the police find his brother

before anyone else gets hurt.

If you don't tell them where Daniel is, I'll have to.

You understand that?

Beaten me, hasn't it? Us?

Yeah, well... No, you can't take the credit for everything, Rose. It's not

for your soul.

I love it when you come over all philosophical, Maloney.

But you don't need to be nice.

You warned me. I took no notice.

No, you didn't.

And it's okay. I'll keep you out of it.

Go on, you go on.

I'll catch the bus, I need to think.

For sure.

Daniel. Danny.

I can't, Daniel.

Wait. I want to see Matt. I need to speak to Matthew.

Matt's scared after what you did to Callum.

I wouldn't hurt anyone.

It wasn't me, that's why.

I'm sorry, Daniel.

I don't believe you. Dad.

Don't.

Dad. No. Dad. I just want to see Matthew.

Please don't.

I just want to speak to Matthew.

It's me, Mum.

I need to speak to Matthew.

It's important. I just want to speak to Matthew. I really... Matthew!

No sign of him.

Children will disappoint you. They can't help it.

Are you going to ring the police?

Yes, I think so.

Made a bit of a mess of this.

Got everyone involved.

I'm sorry.

Well, we'll survive.

Do I disappoint you?

A little.

I wish you were more sensible with yourself.

More sensible?

Yes, dear.

So why do you help me if I'm such a letdown?

Don't be dim, darling.

I love you.

Where's Matt?

Matt?

Matt's fine he's been with Karen all day.

What?

Matt's fine he's been with Karen all day.

Dad, what happened?

You did something bad, Daniel.

Dad.

Dad, can you take me home?

I can't.

I don't know you.

I don't know what you are.

Dad, Dad, you don't mean that, please.

Please.

Dad!

Can you take me home?

Dad.

Dad.

Please.

Come and get me.

Please, Dad.

Please. Don't scream or anything.

How'd you get here?

I came with you on the bus from Katie's.

Why are you saying I killed Callum?

Just please tell me you haven't hurt her.

What? What are you talking about?

I think you killed Callum because you thought he might tell about what

to Mr Towns.

You don't know anything about that.

So tell me. No, you wouldn't understand anyway.

I'll try.

Shut up, all right?

None of you know what it's like. None of you've got any idea what it's like to

have to just put up with it. What do you put up with, Matthew?

At you.

Hey.

Hey.

I was trying to see you.

Hurry, Danny.

I just wanted to see you.

He wouldn't let me.

You left me there.

Why did you let them lock me up?

He wasn't supposed to die. That wasn't the game.

I didn't kill him.

I didn't kill anyone.

Melania, I know it's late. Can you come over? What, now?

Yeah, right now.

Okay.

Now you're together.

You can tell us what the game was.

It was a war. There was shit at our place.

You had to be tidy. You always had to work hard.

No television.

Mr. Town's house was different, though. It was full of great stuff, like guns,

knives and medals and things.

There were no rules.

And the game?

We were allowed to do bad things, though.

We had to think him up.

If Mr. Towles tried to stop us, then we'd frighten him.

Until he told on us.

So what happened that last day?

After the police told us off, we didn't go back to Mr. Town's house for a long

time.

Danny... He wasn't as clever as me.

That last day...

Dad hadn't let him eat with us for a week because he'd been bunking off

And each day before tea, he'd hit him on the hand with this metal ruler for

letting us all down again.

Daniel was miserable.

I just wanted to help him out.

That's very disappointing, Matthew.

I thought you knew how to behave.

Daniel!

Put them back there.

They have to know how to behave, yes?

Now, see what you've done to your brother.

Hands.

He couldn't do anything against him.

Nothing.

Nothing.

So you went to Mr. Towns.

We were angry.

We wanted to punish someone.

I don't think we knew what we were going to do.

Maybe just frighten him.

What do you want?

Go away.

Leave me alone, can't you?

Just get out of here.

Go away.

What do you want?

Come on.

Where did Callum go?

He went back to my house to get my dad.

What?

Because he's a doctor?

Are you certainly okay?

Go home and wait for me.

But, Daddy!

I'll take care of it. Go home now!

You left me.

You left me and you let me take the blame.

You made me.

Let me understand this, Matthew.

When your father got there, Mr. Towns was still alive.

He said he tried to save Mr. Towns, but it was too late.

He came back later and took us to Callum's house.

Spoke to Mrs. Roxton for a long time.

He said, I've never to talk about it or think about it again.

Yes, Arnott from Strategy Unit. Can you release files on a Daniel Barrington,

please? Yep, I'll send them straight up.

No, I'll come and get them myself.

This was just a lick of my hand for those.

Okay.

Can I have the next patient for Dr Tierney, please?

Hello.

Hello, Dr Barrington.

My name is Tierney.

You have no right to come here.

Well, the rights and wrongs of things need a little discussion.

I've met with your son, Matthew.

Matt? How did you... Was he OK?

Oh, he's a very nice kid.

Not mixed up.

About a lot of things.

He told you.

I don't expect you to understand. It was a decision I took.

The boys had already been in trouble for attacking Mr. Townes. I knew the police

would come looking for them. It was a decision I took.

To leave your own son at the scene of a crime to take the blame?

We were both going to be blamed. I just saved the one I could.

Your best one.

Matthew is a bright boy. He has a future.

You took the boys to the Roxton house and concocted that alibi.

Jane Roxton was sensible.

She made sure the police never interviewed them. We just tried to save

boys. We let them have a life.

I hoped Daniel was being taken care of, that I could solve his problems.

His?

Oh, his problems.

I looked at Daniel's medical records after he was arrested.

They said that he'd suffered a trauma to the head consistent with

unconsciousness.

Really? I don't know how that changes what I told you. Oh, I think it does.

We'd had a knock to the head, but Mr. Towns was dying when I got there.

Possibly.

We'll never really know that, will we? I can assure you that... Arthur Towns'

post -mortem showed that he'd suffered an initial wound to the chest when he

fell over on the glass.

But the report said it was a separate and deliberate jugular cut with a razor

that killed him.

Inside a miniature suit.

Of course, at the trial, they just presumed it was Daniel because they

he was the only person there.

So?

So, if Daniel had done that, Mr. Towns would have been dead when you got there.

But as you said, Daniel was unconscious.

Perhaps that joke in a cut happened afterwards. Perhaps somebody else did

You'd already sent Matthew away, hadn't you?

Hello, Dad.

Mum gave them your shoes.

My shoes?

The ones you were wearing when you killed Callum.

You left a footprint.

I did it for you, Matthew. Can't you understand that?

All those plans we had for you, they were great.

He's my brother!

All those lies!

Living with lies!

Making Mum lie!

I thought we killed him!

You left me there.

I'm not talking to you. You caused this.

No. You can't cause things when you're ten. You ruined our lives.

You couldn't do anything. You could never do a thing right. I had to do it

you.

You know, I think you must be the worst person I've ever met.

Please stay away from me.

They say there's no such thing as bad puppies.

You know, I've been thinking.

Why didn't they have a dossier on me?

Nobody cares about you, Maloney. No.

Come on, boys.

Let's see if we can sort this out.
