Original subtitles

VAUGHAN: Mali Pryce, 16 years old,

ELIN: Things are gonna change.

went missing April 2011.

His medical needs will change.

LYNN: So she was held somewhere. For how long?

He's gonna need palliative care.

You know, you could show a bit more interest

CADI: We could be looking at months, not weeks.

once in a while, Cad.

Possibly even longer.

Seriously, Elin?

You've got a nasty cut there.

How did it happen?

I wasn't thinking. That's all.

HUW: East wind. Always brings trouble.

What have we got?

It bought meback.

Attempted abduction of Lowri Driscoll, 23.

Like I said, trouble.

Well, are we thinking this is related to the Mali Pryce case?

-Possibly. -

He just came out of nowhere.

If that was our man who attacked Lowri last night,

it's only a matter of time until he tries it again.

The truck's registered to a William Parry.

FFION: You okay?

-Okay. -William Parry died in 1998.

-Yeah, I'm just knackered. -

FFION: You need to have some fun.

-Stop. -Leave me alone!

Megan.

ELIN: Oh.

Where's Dad?

In bed. He needed an early night.

I thought you'd be in work.

I still am at work.

You could've called, you know, if you were free.

I wasn't trying to avoid you, Elin.

-Really? -Yes, really.

Okay.

Llinos Evans was reported missing in March 2007

by her foster parents, Geraint and Anwen Richards.

So, what do you want to talk about?

Now, this wasn't the first time

I want to talk about Dad.

that Llinos had run away from her foster home.

What else is there to talk about?

She had history.

-Okay. -Well, you saw how Beth was.

She had only been with the Richardses for seven months

I've tried to talk to her, but she doesn't want to listen.

before she just vanished into thin air.

She needs more time.

-Dad doesn't have more time. -Oh, Jesus, Els.

Now, if I can draw your attention to the bracelet

Yeah, well, I'm sorry, Cad, but it's true.

that she's wearing in this photograph.

He's going to deteriorate fast and we need to be prepared.

This was taken a couple of days before she went missing.

Now, if we compare it with the bracelet that we found

Dad needs a proper care plan.

on Mali Pryce yesterday morning, the similarities are obvious.

And then maybe we can at least focus on...

Do you think it could be the same one?

Dying?

LYNN: A word of caution.

On each other.

Let's not jump to any conclusions quite yet.

After all, this style of bracelet is very common.

But what we'll need to do as a matter of priority

CADI: Dad?

is to go back through the misper files on both these girls.

You've got to talk to him, Cad.

Reexamine witness statements, check names, dates, times,

And what makes you think he'll listen to me?

HUW: The blue hour,

see if we can establish any sort of connection

that hour between night and day,

'Cause you're his favorite.

between Mali Pryce and Llinos Evans.

That's not true.

not one thing or the other.

So far the team have visited up to 30 addresses

Of course it is.

I never understood it before.

in the immediate area surrounding Pantwern.

You were always his golden girl, Cad.

But now...

And even after all that praise he gave you,

It's cold out here.

We've prepared this statement for the press.

what did you do?

East wind.

You dropped out of uni and joined the bloody army.

-Okay. -We've kept it short.

Always brings trouble.

We don't want to release any details

Here we go again.

about Llinos Evans at this stage.

It brought meback.

How sure are we about this?

-Like I said, trouble. -

It wasn't personal, you know?

Two girls.

You mean it wasn't personal to you.

Similar age, similar build, both with dark hair,

I'm glad you're home.

Sure?

and both go missing within a 10-mile radius of each other.

I thought Elin and Beth were doing fine without me.

But you were always my favorite.

It could all be a coincidence,

I need a cigarette.

but it just doesn't feel that way.

I bet you say that to all of us.

-I thought you were giving up. -Yeah, I am. I'm trying.

-Well, try a bit harder, then. -Yeah, I will do.

We're gonna need more than gut instinct and a silver bracelet

I am proud of you, you know that?

before we face the ACC and deputy chief constable.

I know I don't say these things...

Stop.

Let's keep our focus on Mali Pryce for the time being,

keep digging her past, see what we can find.

It's okay.

We've got an address for an old school friend of Mali's,

Jesus.

Sara Dean.

They were cautioned together for shoplifting

The way you're carrying on,

anyone would think you were dying or something.

two months before Mali went missing.

Good. Let's talk to her, see what she has to say.

D.I. Cadi John.

Yeah.

Yeah, okay. Okay.

I've got to go. Work.

Don't stay out here too long.

Can see Dad's been busy.

Oh, yeah.

Listen, Els, I...

I'm getting a divorce.

What?

It's okay. We're not, um...

Well, we're not fighting.

We're not even talking that much either.

That's the problem, I suppose.

We just fell apart.

-I'm sorry. -We've decided not to tell Dad.

He doesn't need to know.

He liked Rhyds.

Well, so did I.

That's why I married him.

I do want to help, you know, with Dad.

DYLAN:

I just...

I don't know where to start sometimes.

DYLAN: It's okay. Just rest now.

Well, just start by talking to him.

Don't move. Stay still.

What have we got?

You're hurt.

Please.

Young woman. Early 20s, I'd say.

I'm going to look after you.

-Where am I? -You're going to be okay.

Head trauma.

Wh-- What's happening?

Shush, now. Shush, now.

Looks as if she's been washed downriver.

Everything's all right. I promise.

Suicide?

-No. -Listen to me.

Hiya!

I don't know. Maybe.

Listen. You've been in an accident.

Dad?

You shouldn't move. I said I'll take care of you.

Pathology will tell us more.

-I promise. -MEGAN:

I want to go home.

-No, you should stay. -Please.

-I want to go home. -Come on. Listen to me.

I thought you were off today.

-You're not well enough. -Don't touch me!

Sam rescheduled the scan last minute.

DYLAN: Please stop. Calm down.

Some work of thing of hers.

Please. Lie down! Rest!

-Stay. -

So it's next week now.

Aah!

That's annoying.

Yeah.

Dad?

-No!

Dad?

Aah! No!

I've just spoken to pathology.

They think our victim might have been alive

when she went into the water.

Obviously, we'll have to wait for the PM results to confirm.

No, no, no, no.

She drowned?

What about the ligature marks, the abrasions on her wrists?

Sustained prior to death, possibly from being restrained.

Shackled.

Oh! Aah!

Shackled?

Their words, not mine.

So she was held somewhere. For how long?

They are not prepared to say at this stage,

but, um, we could be looking at months, not weeks.

MEGAN: No!

Possibly even longer.

No.

No!

No!

No! No!

No. No!

You can't leave me in here!

-You can't leave me in here! -

You can't leave me in here! Come back!

D.I. John.

Come back! Come back! Come back!

You can't leave me in here!

-You can't leave me in here! -

What have we got?

Attempted abduction of Lowri Driscoll, 23.

Are we thinking this is related to the Mali Pryce case?

Possibly.

Lowri Driscoll's young. She has dark hair.

She has a resemblance to the Pryce girl.

Similar age, similar build.

-Assailant? -Male, tall.

And that's all we know.

Where's the girl now? She's in hospital.

One of the FO's is with her now.

D.S. Vaughan.

LOWRI: I went to see my mother.

Drove to the farm after work.

I left work around 6:00, 6:30.

I-I got to my mother's around 7:00, I think.

My mother, she wanted me to stay for food, but I wasn't hungry.

Missing women.

Open cases stretching back 10 years and more.

I just wanted to go home.

I've narrowed the search down

to women of roughly the same age and height as our victim.

I've also been in contact with social services.

I think I left around 9:00.

And?

They said they'd look into it when they had the time.

I waited a bit because my mum said

Helpful.

that my dad would be home around 8:00.

Um, previous offenders?

But he wasn't.

On release and still living in the area.

Good.

With a narrower timeline, I'll be able to refine the search.

So I just left.

No, this is great. Thanks.

No problem.

CADI: Thanks, Alys.

And what happened next?

-What? -Didn't say anything.

When I left, it was raining.

"No, this is great. Thanks."

So jealous.

I -- I drove up the lane to the gate at the top.

Like you wouldn't believe.

MAN: We do not see things the way they are,

but as weare.

I got out of the car to open it,

Now, Christopher Columbus on his voyage to America

and then when I --

when I went to close it again, he just...

saw three mermaids,

describing them as females who rose from the sea.

He just came out of nowhere.

VAUGHAN: Did you see his face?

Now, did Columbus imagine these mermaids

I know this is tough, Lowri,

but can you think of anyone, anyone at all,

because of his interest in the world of fantasy,

that would want to hurt you?

or did he actually see them?

Lowri?

We do not see things the way they are,

but as weare.

My ex.

Marc.

That is,

Marc Lewis.

we cannot see the world as it truly is,

but rather as molded by our individual minds,

We went out with each other for a couple of months.

meaning our past experiences

It was intense. He -- He was intense.

will inform our present perceptions.

Possessive.

CADI: And you broke up with him?

The implication being

that each one of us here today has six senses,

He went nuts.

He's been hounding me, calling me all the time.

and that sixth sense

can be found deep within oneself.

At home, work.

Sending abusive texts,

leaving nasty messages, just making threats.

Last night, he smashed my car.

VAUGHAN: Did you report it?

Yeah.

-You okay? -Hmm?

You look like shit.

When was the last time you spoke to Marc? Saw him?

Yeah, I'm just knackered.

Are you not eating?

Earlier this evening. At the end of my shift.

No, I don't feel like it.

Pass it here, then.

He just turned up.

So, tonight...

Started screaming and shouting.

Tonight?

-Party, Cai's place. -Oh, I don't know.

You promised.

It's just that I've got this essay deadline.

That's why I went to see my mum.

Fuck the essay.

I was upset.

You need to have some fun --

get totally shit-faced and do something stupid.

I needed someone to talk to.

Mm.

Please?

For me?

Don't make me go by myself. I'm shy.

Do you think Marc might have had anything to do

with what happened to you tonight?

Please? Please?

-Please? -All right.

I don't know.

All right, I'll go.

Sorry to disturb you.

We're just going house to house in the area

God bless you, Stella. Hey, Stella.

making some inquiries.

Good girl.

My name's Police Constable Ryan Davies.

My colleague is Police Constable Mari James.

We were wondering if we could ask you a few questions.

IONA: Yeah.

DAVIES: I don't know how closely you follow the news,

Hey.

but a young woman's body was found yesterday morning

in the river at Pantwern.

Take a look at this.

On Monday night, the night of the 16th,

did you see or hear anything suspicious?

No.

Mali Pryce, 16 years old, went missing April 2011.

No suspicious activity,

no strange person or persons in the area?

2011.

-Nobody comes this way.

Troubled home life,

Does anyone else live here on the premises with you?

truancy, drugs, shoplifting.

Yes. My granddaughter and my son live here.

Reported missing by her mother.

-What's your son's name? -Dylan.

Her father, Alun Pryce, did three years for ABH in 2002,

And the girl's mother?

released in 2005.

She's gone. She's left.

No prizes for originality.

JAMES: How old is your granddaughter?

Look at the photo at the back of the file.

10.

And your son, does he have another partner, girlfriend?

Okay.

What's that got to do with you?

We're just trying to establish whether your son was home

on the night of the 16th.

-That's all. -Yes, he was.

What do you think?

JAMES: We'll need to speak to your son.

Do you have a current address?

-Is he home? -No.

We can get one.

But he will be here tonight. I don't know what time.

He works shifts over at Carn Ddu.

Okay?

You know what? I think we're done here.

That's everything. Thank you for your time.

-She was friendly. -Takes all sorts.

JAMES: Don't I know it.

Shit.

What?

I know him. He's an estate agent.

He showed me and Sam some house in Beaumaris

the weekend before last.

Are you house hunting? You kept that quiet.

Well, yeah.

And what is it like, this house?

Don't be afraid.

It was all right. Wasn't worth the money they were asking.

Nothing's gonna happen to you.

Hey.

Sam liked it.

You're safe now.

Okay. Let's get on with it, then.

This is a good place.

What's this about?

I used to hide down here when I was a kid.

It's 7:30 in the morning. I've got work at 9:00.

We're sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Lewis.

When my mother was angry.

I was safe here.

Well?

This was my place.

We appreciate you coming in to talk to us.

The house above us...

well, what's left of it...

...it used to be my grandparents' place.

My name is D.I. Cadi John,

It was their home.

and this is my colleague D.S. Owen Vaughan.

Hi! Isabel.

I never met them.

Yeah, good, thanks. Yeah.

Could you tell us where you were last night,

They died before I was born.

Wednesday the 18th of October,

Is Mam home?

between the hours of 9:00 and 10:00 p.m.?

Burned in a fire when my mother was small.

Do you know when she'll be back?

Why?

Because at 9:20 yesterday evening,

Is she working late tonight?

Lowri Driscoll was assaulted on the road outside Nantlle

The house was destroyed, gutted.

Yeah.

as she was leaving her parents' farm.

Um, no. It's okay. You don't have to do that.

Why are you doing this to me?

What's that got to do with me?

We understand that you and Lowri

It's not important.

had been in a relationship together

What?

I didn't choose you.

which Lowri ended recently.

No, everything's good, yeah.

So what?

Youchose me.

I'm getting into the course after freshers, yeah.

We spent a few weekends together,

No.

went out a couple of times.

Nothing much, big deal.

No, that's not true.

So is that why you kept pestering her

DYLAN: I'm not going to hurt you.

after she dumped you?

I would never do that.

Is that what she told you?

She said that you wouldn't leave her alone.

I want to take care of you.

Is that Charlie? Yeah?

Kept calling her, bombarding her with abusive texts.

I bet he's not missing me at all.

I want to go home.

Bombarding?

Okay, so I sent some stupid texts.

No, everything's good.

My mother, she'll be worried.

I was pissed off, that's all.

Because she didn't want you in her life anymore?

Because she wouldn't tell me why.

Hey, look, there's someone at the door.

And is that why you started following her, Mr. Lewis?

She'll come looking for me.

Mm, yeah.

Calling her at work, at home, all hours of the day?

Tell her I phoned.

Okay.

-No. -Threatening her?

-No. -Smashing up her car?

No.

Speak soon, yeah.

Yes.

That wasn't me.

Bye.

And not just her.

Christ, how many times do I have to tell you lot?

Bye.

When was the last time you saw Lowri, Mr. Lewis?

-Yesterday afternoon. -What time?

-'Bout half 5:00. -And what did you speak about?

You need to trust me.

She sent some of your lot to the office where I worked.

I'm going to take such good care of you.

I just wanted to let her know enough was enough.

Enough was enough.

And, um, after you'd spoken to Lowri,

after you'd told her that enough was enough,

Please.

what did you do then?

I want to go home.

Went home.

Did you see anyone?

Please, let me go home!

Speak to anyone?

This isyour home.

Can anyone vouch for your whereabouts?

-No. -

No.

-No.

This is becoming ridiculous.

Oh! No. No.

You drag me out of bed at half 6:00 in the morning,

-No. No. -

No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no.

bring me here, ask me all these idiotic questions.

What happened to Lowri last night

No!

had nothing to do with me.

Come back!

I wasn't there.

What more can I say?

Come back!

Now, charge me with a crime or let me go

Come back!

Eh?

because I know my rights, and I'm done playing this game.

Well, unfortunately for you, Mr. Lewis,

this isn't a game.

And we have the right to keep you for questioning for --

What is it again? --

24 hours before we have to decide

whether to charge you or not.

So if I were you, I would make myself comfortable

Dad...

because you're going to be here for a good while yet.

This is bullshit.

How many times do I have to tell you?

I had fuck all to do with it! I never touched the bitch!

My heart bleeds for you, Mr. Lewis.

Fuck off.

Aah! Get off me!

Get your hands off me!

I want to see my solicitor! Get my fucking solicitor!

You okay?

Yeah. That woke me up a bit.

Fuck, fuck, fuck!

-What the fuck do you want? -Calm yourself down.

You saw what that crazy bitch did.

She attacked me.

None of this is helping, Mr. Lewis.

Fuck. Fuck!

Calm down.

Look, this is nuts.

I don't belong here I haven't done anything wrong.

Well, I'm sure we'll get this sorted in no time, Mr. Lewis.

Wait, wait. Stop.

Listen, when I was with Lowri yesterday,

as I was driving off, as I was leaving,

I saw this bloke.

Okay.

He was sat in some shitty pickup truck

and, I don't know, it was like he was watching us.

I didn't think much of it at the time,

but there was something not quite right about him.

I don't suppose you remember what this man looked like?

Can you describe the truck?

Old. Rusty. R-Red, I think.

So, what do you say?

I mean, I've helped you out here, right?

Okay.

Maybe you could put in a good word for me.

Have a lie-down, Mr. Lewis.

Make yourself comfortable.

You think I don't remember you?! I know who you are!

Saw the way you were with your missus!

You've got a bitch at home telling you what to do

and a bitch at work bossing you about!

You want to grow some balls, pal!

Fuck!

-Thanks. -Pleasure.

You two seemed to hit it off.

What can I say? I've always loved a half-wit.

It's why weget on so well.

Oh, shit.

Thought of any names yet?

Keep an eye on him for me, will you?

If it's a boy or a girl?

Yeah, we haven't narrowed it down,

but we're thinking Matthew, maybe,

Desk.

if it's a boy.

Chair.

And, Sam, she likes Ella.

Oh, yeah, Ella's nice.

Bed.

Lamp.

Try not to look too enthusiastic.

Mirror.

What?

Window.

No, it's fine. It's good.

You know, if you're gonna lie, you should tell your face.

Desk.

Chair.

'Cause it's giving you away.

Bed.

I don't know...

Lamp.

Mirror.

I guess I'm just feeling a bit...

Window.

What?

Hormonal.

Desk.

Chair.

Bed.

Lamp.

Mirror.

Window.

Desk.

Ch...

Chair.

Bed.

Lamp.

Mirror.

Get up.

Get out.

Get on with your life.

You can't sit in here all day.

Dylan!

Dylan!

DELYTH: Dyl!

Dylan!

Please.

Delyth.

Have we spoken to the victim's social worker?

Do we know if he's still in the area?

We have an office address for him.

He's next on the list, actually.

Where are we on the house-to-house strategy?

We're working on the assumption that she was held within

a five-to-ten-mile radius of where she was found.

There are deep abrasions on the soles of her feet.

Pathology think that they were made just before death,

from running, maybe, trying to escape.

-She was alive the whole time? -Mm-hmm.

Fuck.

There will be questions asked, lots of them.

We need answers soon.

Hey, Dad.

We've screwed up once. Let's try not to do so again.

Dad?

All right, let's go and see them.

Bloody hell.

What are you doing? You're supposed to be resting.

Sorry. Sorry, sorry, sorry.

Okay, we've got a lot to get through,

so phones off, please.

I'm just sorting these.

I've been meaning to do it for a while.

The body of Mali Pryce was found this morning at 5:15 a.m.

I've got nothing better to do with my time.

after a call from a member of the public directed officers

Dad.

The, um, secondhand bookshop

to this location -- Pantwern.

will take some of these, won't they?

And those that aren't worth very much, well,

Mali Pryce disappeared in April 2011.

they can go to the charity shop.

I don't know.

A misper inquiry was actioned at the time,

They're fussy about what they take now, you know?

but there was no evidence to suggest

that she'd been abducted.

Ah. I forgot. Nobody reads anymore.

-

You look tired. Why don't you have a rest?

After what happened yesterday,

well, we don't want a repeat performance.

You know what Elin said.

I'm fine. There's no need to fret.

I just need to do this.

Okay, okay. I'm not here to nag.

Just give me a shout if you need anything, okay?

The boss wants to see us.

-Have you eaten anything today? -Yes.

You coming?

-What about your tablets? -Yes.

Yeah.

DYLAN:

-All of them? -Yes!

I've got a senior meeting in 10 minutes.

So where are we with Mali Pryce and Lowri Driscoll?

Do we think the cases are linked in some way?

CADI: We haven't been able to establish a connection yet.

But less than 48 hours after the body of Mali Pryce is found,

we have another young woman,

bearing a striking resemblance to the Pryce girl,

being attacked in what presents as an attempted abduction.

It just cannot be a coincidence.

So our man is doing what? Looking for a replacement?

Where are we with Marc Lewis?

He claims to have been home alone all night.

Yeah, we're holding him for 24 hours while we check his story.

Has he given us anything?

He and Lowri had some big fight yesterday afternoon.

Everything okay up there?

When he was leaving, he claims to have seen someone.

Some guy in a red pickup truck.

Dad?

Marc got the impression this man wasn't there by chance,

Is that from Cadi?

that he'd been watching them for a while.

CADI: Could be something. Might be nothing.

God, her handwriting was always atrocious.

But when we spoke to Lowri,

she said that the man who attacked her

was driving what she thought was a dark-colored pickup truck.

Ohh!

When was this taken?

Any progress in finding this truck?

God, look how young she is. She looks about 12.

We're checking Lowri's movements over the last 48 hours

to see if anyone was following her.

Oh, you'll have to show this to her when she comes home.

Traffic cams might throw something up.

I don't know. We'll see.

Okay.

Let's meet at the end of the day for a quick recap

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

before we brief the rest of the team.

It's just that...

...nobody knows what will happen in any given moment.

So, what do you want to do about Marc?

Do you want to charge him for taking a swing at you?

You spend your life worrying about your children.

Oh, absolutely, yeah.

Let's make life as unpleasant

as we possibly can for Mr. Lewis.

You want them to be safe, to be happy.

What?

Nothing.

Just the look on his face

when you threw him up against the wall.

Yeah, well, serves him right for taking on a woman half his size.

And you think that there will always be time.

I mean, you know, obviously I was primed and ready to pounce

Yeah, but we're all here now, Dad, and that's what matters.

if things got out of hand.

Yeah, course you were.

And at least one good thing came out of all this.

Yeah, what's that?

I'll go put some food on.

I don't have to buy that house now.

You don't have to eat it now. You can reheat it later.

Okay?

Meg?

Megan.

Megan, what the fuck? What's going on?

Where have you been? What happened last night?

Nothing. It was nothing.

You okay?

I texted you like five times.

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't have my phone on.

Well, you could have texted back to let me know you're okay.

Why did you leave like that last night?

I just wasn't feeling very well. Needed to get out.

Look, I've got to go. I've got a seminar now.

Okay. What are you doing later?

Library probably.

I don't know. I've got that essay.

You sure everything's okay?

You can speak to me, you know?

About stuff. Anything.

Yeah, I know. Yeah. I'm fine.

It's just...

I'm just late for class.

-VAUGHAN: Rhodri Moss? -RHODRI: Yes.

Okay. Well, text me later if you want to do anything.

-Sorry to trouble you at work. -That's okay.

Yeah.

We're here about an old client of yours -- Mali Pryce.

We understand you were her social worker.

Ah.

When was this?

Mali was referred to your office in October 2010,

six months before she went missing.

Hi, Els. What's up?

Ah, yes. Mali.

Hey, Cad. Where are you?

Troubled girl, been excluded from school.

Still at work. Why?

Nothing, it just sounds like

you're outside somewhere, that's all.

Picked up a few cautions as I recall.

So, what is it? You okay?

Shoplifting, drugs.

Uh, yeah. What are you doing tonight?

Had an interesting home life.

Do you want to come over to the house?

Tonight?

Can you remember the last time you saw her?

We need to talk.

Sorry.

Yeah, I-I can't tonight. I'm sorry.

I gave a statement at the time when Mali went missing.

I've got too much on here. I don't know when I'll get away.

Why? Has something happened?

Okay. Um, when, then?

Don't know.

We found her body this morning at Pantwern.

Tomorrow, maybe.

Okay.

We're treating her death as suspicious.

Have you spoken to Dad today?

God.

That's awful. Poor girl.

No, not yet.

I wish I could be of more help to you,

It's been hectic here. You know how it is.

but unfortunately Mali was just one of many troubled souls

to have come through my door.

You? Is he okay?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, he seems fine.

I'm sorry.

But he probably wouldn't say anything to us either way.

You know, Cad, you could show a bit more interest

once in a while.

Hello?

Help! Help!

Seriously, Elin?

Do we really want to do this now?

When?

Okay, okay, okay.

I'm sorry. I'm tired.

-Are you okay? -Yeah, I've got to go, sorry.

So, tomorrow night, then?

No worries.

I'll drop you off at the station first.

Yeah, tomorrow night.

Okay.

Okay.

Aah! Aah!

-DAVIES: Mr. Harris?

P.C. Ryan Davies, P.C. Mari James.

We spoke to your mother on Wednesday.

We were hoping you had time for a few questions.

JAMES: Is now a good time, Mr. Harris?

Yeah. Sure.

How can I help?

-So, what have you got for me? -Ieuan Rhys.

-Hi. -Hi.

I've been doing a bit of digging --

known associates, criminal records,

What happened?

prison sentencing dates.

He fell in town.

He did eight months for theft,

Another seizure.

ten months for handling stolen goods,

Someone found him, thank God, called an ambulance.

possession, an aggravated-assault charge,

Where is he now?

some other minor offenses.

He's in his bedroom with Elin.

Meg?

The list goes on.

He won't eat anything. He's so pale.

Megan? You okay?

Here's what we have on the known associates.

-God, you look stoned. -I'm fine.

We've also found an address for Geraint and Anwen Richards.

-Want to get some coffee? -Okay.

Llinos Evans' foster parents?

We've spoken to the wife, Anwen,

DAVIES: We called yesterday, Mr. Harris.

Did you have another late one?

God. First the medical brigade and now the constabulary.

and she told us that her husband passed away last year.

No. Couldn't face it.

DYLAN: My mother said.

June the 8th.

My liver was begging for a night off.

Please sit.

How are you feeling?

So, what did you do?

Aside from that, there's not much more she could tell us.

I fell over. I had a dizzy spell, that's all.

Went to the launderette,

She was asked about the bracelet?

I'm fine now.

watched some telly, did some shopping.

She was. She couldn't remember ever seeing it on Llinos.

You need to rest.

How can I help?

It's about the young woman found

-Thrilling stuff. -

in the river a couple of nights ago.

What about you?

I can hear the rumor mill cranking up from here.

That's frustrating.

DYLAN: Oh.

Did you do anything wild? Anything shameful?

"Ex-chief of police drunk and disorderly in town."

I'm not sure.

You need me for anything else?

DAVIES: You're not under suspicion, Mr. Harris.

Went to the library, worked on my essay.

No, that's everything. Thanks.

They won't think that.

We're just going house to house.

Do you speak to anyone else besides me and the librarian?

-DYLAN: I see. -DAVIES: So...

I'll go and calm Bethan down.

Eh, sometimes.

Okay, well, I should...

can you tell us where you were on the night of the 16th?

Yeah? Like who?

I'll let you get on.

Don't keep him talking too long. He needs his rest.

Hiya.

-The 16th? -The Monday just gone.

I don't know if you know, but, uh,

Here. I was here.

a few of us are going out for drinks this Saturday.

I spoke to my mother last night.

She's annoyed because I went out on my own.

At home with my mother and daughter.

If you're free, you should come. Might be fun.

-How did that go? -Disaster.

My daughter was ill.

When I came to,

Complaints, criticism.

She's still off school.

she was there in the hospital, glowering at me,

I've stopped calling mine.

-Let me think about it. -Okay.

I'm not one for going out much.

I think she's on the change or something.

face like bloody thunder.

JAMES: So you were home all evening?

Or she's just middle-aged and mental.

You should listen to her.

DYLAN: Yeah. Got home from work about 6:00.

She knows what she's talking about.

Who knows?

Who cares?

Mm.

Went to bed about 10:00.

Mine's the same.

Open that window, will you?

JAMES: Where is it that you work, Mr. Harris?

I think that's the reason why my dad left.

It's so stuffy in here.

DYLAN: Over at the quarry.

DAVIES: Carn Ddu? Over the top past the reservoir?

To get away from her constant criticism.

-DYLAN: Yeah. -Have you worked there long?

DYLAN: Couple of years now.

I've got to keep going, Cad.

Can anyone verify your movements on the night of the 16th?

I can't just lie here waiting for the end.

JAMES: Other than your mother and daughter, that is.

So, what's this essay about?

It's not in my nature.

Um...

Just no more amateur dramatics, okay?

Nature versus nurture.

I don't know.

Like, which is stronger.

I mean, it was just another day.

And?

Well, we're as much a product of our genetics

Ordinary.

So...

DAVIES: Can you remember seeing anything

The call this morning?

as the environment we're born into.

or anyone suspicious that night?

It must've been something juicy

It's like the debate about innate ideas

DYLAN: No.

for them to call you at that time.

Not really, no.

versus animal instinct.

Abduction case.

Nothing much happens around here, does it?

Yeah.

Young girl went missing in 2011.

Yeah, um, so, what about you? What have you got on today?

We're in the middle of nowhere and quite far from the road.

We found her body this morning.

It's always quiet here.

Not a lot.

Looks like she might have been held somewhere.

Do you want to do something later?

Sure.

Held somewhere? All this time?

Come over if you like. I'll make us some food.

Bloody hell.

Okay. Cool.

Exactly.

I'll bring the booze.

Have you identified her from the misper reports?

We can get wrecked and bitch about our mothers.

We did, yeah.

Cause of death?

Waiting for pathology to confirm.

Is it still Phillips?

Aww.

No, Morris.

Morris.

Sorry, that's all they had left.

I don't know him. Is he any good?

Yeah. Sheis.

Oh, witness statement from last night.

Anyway, I shouldn't have told you any of this.

You'll be brooding about it all night now. I know you.

Once the job gets into your veins, it never leaves you.

Local man who came to Lowri Driscoll's aid

Right.

described her assailant.

You need to rest.

Said he was tall, six foot plus,

Stop thinking, and get some sleep, okay?

wearing combat trousers, baseball cap, dark jacket.

I also spoke to the estate agents

DAVIES: What vehicle do you drive, Mr. Harris?

Oh, Cad...

Is it the one you were working on when we arrived?

where Marc Lewis works,

Throw that soup down the toilet, will you?

and apparently he left the office at 3:00

The blue van? Yeah.

Tell them I ate it. It'll make them feel better.

to show a couple around a house in Abergwyngregyn,

It's all I've got.

and he was back at the office by 5:00.

DAVIES: And what's up with it?

Lowri told us her last home visit was at 4:00,

Okay.

DYLAN: Um, starter motor.

and she left about 4:20,

There's always something.

It's old.

and that's when she was confronted by Marc.

Been meaning to get something newer.

So, if Marc was back in the office by 5:00,

Can't afford it right now.

he couldn't have known where Lowri went after he left her.

What happened to your hand, Mr. Harris?

Which leaves us with our mystery man in the pickup truck.

Work accident.

Um, it happened yesterday.

I went to the hospital, got it stitched.

So no work today, then?

Are we sure about this?

I can't work like this.

About the connection between Mali Pryce

and the attack on Lowri Driscoll?

Honestly?

Don't know.

I hope not. I hope we're wrong.

But worst-case scenario,

if that was our man who attacked Lowri last night

Hi! Mam. It's me.

and he failed,

No, I was over in the library.

it's only a matter of time until he tries it again.

Everything's good, yeah.

DAVIES: If you do remember anything about that night,

The course is great. I'm really enjoying it.

please don't hesitate to contact us.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yes, I'm making friends.

I said I'd make an effort, and I am.

Well, that's it for now.

Thank you very much for your time, Mr. Harris.

Where were you on Wednesday evening, Mr. Harris?

No reason.

I just wanted to see how you are, that's all.

Wednesday evening?

JAMES: The evening before last.

Between 6:00 and 10:00.

No.

I thought you were here about the young girl in the river.

No, I-I wasn't upset.

Why are you asking me about Wednesday?

I don't know why she said that.

Routine questions. That's all.

I know she wouldn't lie.

Dylan Harris.

I know it was my choice to be here.

I'm not being snappy!

So, Wednesday evening?

Okay.

DYLAN: I was home.

Text me a time, and I'll ring you.

Came home straight from work.

Like I said, Nia, my daughter, was ill.

Take a seat on the bed, Mr. Harris.

Why? Did -- Did something happen?

Right, let's have a look at the hand.

A young woman was attacked on the road outside Nantlle.

I'm sorry if this hurts.

-Is she okay? -She's fine.

Now, I'm just going to squeeze the tips of the fingers.

VAUGHAN: I went back through Mali Pryce's record --

the shoplifting charge, the drunk and disorderly.

Now, let me know if this hurts.

Mali's charge sheets reference a second girl, Sara Dean.

Can you feel that?

Mm.

Mali Pryce and Sara Dean were arrested and cautioned

on three occasions together,

You've got a nasty cut there.

I think we're done for now.

but there's no mention of this girl having ever been questioned

How did it happen?

Thank you, Mr. Harris, for your time and patience.

when Mali went missing.

Oh.

-Do we have an address? -We do.

An accident. At work.

Okay.

-And where is that?

Well, let's speak to her. She might remember something.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Over at Carn Ddu. At the quarry.

Heya.

And what about Mali's mum?

And what happened?

Catrin? Any joy there?

She's been informed. She was traced to an address in Bristol.

I wasn't thinking. That's all.

And where are we with cause of death? Anything from path yet?

Nothing yet. Still waiting.

Well, maybe next time you'll pay a bit more care and attention?

Story of our lives.

How's your dad?

Well, I don't think you've broken anything.

Yeah, he's okay, yeah.

There's no lasting damage.

False alarm.

But you won't be back at the quarry for a while.

Anyway, it's late. Go home.

Right, let's get you stitched up.

We'll talk in the morning, yeah?

Okay.

2:30, Modern Europe. Tedious.

-No idea why I chose history. -

-I don't want to think about it. -Well, that's the problem.

What time shall I come tonight?

-He's not going into a home. -I'm not saying that.

I don't know. About 7:00?

But things are gonna change. His medical needs will change.

No, no, no. Fuck, fuck, fuck.

What the hell was all that about? I mean, Christ.

He's gonna need palliative care.

Fucking dickheads.

You can't just ask whatever question comes to mind.

BETHAN: Listen to you.

There's a process, procedure. We need to stick to the script.

This is Dad we're talking about,

not one of your patients on your rounds.

Yeah, I know, but there's something off about him.

He's deteriorating, Beth.

We're in the ass end of nowhere.

Everyone 'round here is slightly off.

It's broken. Fuck, what am I gonna do?

He'll be in pain.

-I haven't backed anything up. -It'll be okay.

Lots of pain.

No. No, you don't understand. It's ruined! It's all gone!

Meg, Jesus, please. Come on.

Can you talk some sense into her, please?

Please, come on. It'll be okay.

No. Uh...

-It'll be okay. -Don't touch me!

Have you spoken to Dad about this?

Do we know what he wants?

It's his life, it's his death, his decision.

Jesus. Meg?

Oh, that's really helpful.

Megan.

Thanks for sharing that.

Megan! Where you going?

Basically, you have no opinion whatsoever.

Why am I not surprised?

What's that supposed to mean?

It's just that we've been dealing with this

a lot longer than you have, that's all.

Yeah, and I came back as often as I could.

You know that.

I gave everything up.

I sold my flat, put in for a transfer to be here,

to be here for Dad.

Well, aren't you the hero?

Oh...

If you've got something to say to me, Elin, just say it, yeah?

Lowri arrived here just after 4:00.

BETHAN: Can we not do this now?

Her last stop of the day.

She stayed for 20 minutes, returned to the car,

Please.

where she was confronted by her ex.

They argue. Marc leaves.

This wine is horrible.

Gets in his car. He drives off.

I know.

And he sees a man...

Dad keeps buying it. He thinks we like it.

Parked in a red pickup truck.

Watching them.

It's bloody hideous.

You know what he's like.

You see, that makes me think he was following her

Once he gets an idea in his head, there's no shaking it.

before she even got here.

Let's speak to Lowri's client, Mister...?

-Davies. -Davies.

He might have seen something.

WOMAN: Really? Oh, my God, no...

Ta-ra.

-

-

DYLAN: They've gone.

I know this must be hard for you.

But it will get easier, as you get used to it.

I promise.

I saw the cuts on your arms.

Did you do those?

I know what it's like to feel that way.

FFION: Meg?

Uncomfortable in your own skin.

Megan? Megan, wait.

Unclean.

What the fuck? Where are you going?

-Megan, stop. -Leave me alone!

Unworthy.

Megan.

Just fuck off, will you?

I'm nothing like you.

You need to trust me.

Look where I am.

Look what you're doing to me.

I haven't done anything to you.

Youcame to me.

You stepped out in front of my truck.

I know what you were doing.

You were giving up.

You didn't want the life you had anymore.

But I want you to live.

VAUGHAN: Lowri Driscoll stopped here

at around 2:45 yesterday afternoon.

I'll look after you.

CADI: So, what do you reckon?

To me, you are special.

-Feeling lucky? -Don't know.

If the cameras are as bad as the coffee...

You're sick.

I saved your life.

Hi. We need to take a look at your CCTV footage, please.

Don't you forget that.

You can leave the pattern on the plate, you know?

It's good.

I did a good thing.

You've got Bethan to thank for it.

Well, I didn't think you made it.

You need to be nice to me.

Somebody had to learn to cook in this family,

and it was never going to be you or Elin.

If God wanted me to cook, why did he invent takeaways?

Can I have some water, please?

How are you feeling?

Oh, you know, the occasional twinge.

Just enough to remind me that this machine of mine

No. No.

isn't going to last very much longer.

Wait! Come back!

Well...

-Where you going?! -

...I see you've kept yourself busy today.

Rearranging the front room.

Where did all those bloody books come from?

And why have I been keeping them all these years?

Yeah, the junk we accumulate.

All we need are the clothes we're standing up in

No, no! No, let me go! Let me go!

Get off me! Get off me!

and the clothes we're changing into.

Get off!

Everything else is just decoration.

You need to calm down!

-You'll hurt yourself! -

Still traveling light, even now.

No, let me go!

-Let me go, please. -

No, no! No, please!

I remember watching you once, years ago.

No, no, no, no, no!

No!

Why are you doing this?! Please don't!

You could only have been about seven or eight.

-I'm trying to help you!

Okay. Here's Lowri's car.

Can't you see that?!

You were trying to dam a stream on the beach,

trying to stop the water from reaching the sea.

No!

And every time you held it back, it changed its course,

Let me go.

I just want to go home.

burst its banks, found another way.

If there's anything you want...

You were furious.

...anything you need...

But you still fought against it.

to make the place more comfortable...

Two forces of nature competing with each other.

I knew then that nothing would hold you back.

I often wonder what would've happened if you'd stayed.

Right, stop a sec.

-

Rewind.

If you hadn't left when you did.

There. Go from there.

Okay, so there's Lowri.

Fills up her car. She goes to pay.

It was hard. Not having you around.

Now watch.

There. She says something to him.

I sometimes feel as though I've missed out on

so much of your life.

Thanks him?

Yeah, but look at his reaction.

You see, Cad, the problem with a stream

is that it pushes everything and everyone out of its path.

I wasn't trying to exclude you.

I just...

I'm happy doing what I'm doing.

I know that.

VAUGHAN: He's not leaving. He's not going.

Dad...

He's waiting for her.

He's following her.

A word of advice --

dying men, they talk a lot of sentimental nonsense.

IONA: Huh?

That's the end of the sermon.

I won't tell you not to work too late,

because you won't listen.

Hi, this is D.I. John.

I need a PNC check on a vehicle registration, please.

Mike Lima five one

Uniform Golf X-ray.

When was this?

-

-

-

Truck's registered to a William Parry.

Okay.

William Parry died in 1998.

Who the hell are you?

FFION: Hi, Meg. It's me.

Where are you? I'm worried sick.

MARC: How many times do I have to tell you?

Call me.

I had fuck all to do with it! Never touched the bitch!

My heart bleeds for you, Mr. Lewis.

You've got a nasty cut there. How did it happen?

Pathology report on Mali Pryce.

FFION: Are you okay? What happened last night?

MEGAN: Nothing. It was nothing.

-Jesus. -Yeah, I know.

Dad doesn't have more time.

Jesus, Els.

Yeah, well, I'm sorry, Cad, but it's true.

Where am I?

You've been in an accident. You shouldn't move.

What about your dad?

We've got to go with this.

I said I'll take care of you. I promise.

For once in your life, will you do what I tell you to?

CADI: Two girls, similar age, similar build,

VAUGHAN: Are we sure about this?

and both go missing within a 10-mile radius of each other.

About the connection between Mali Pryce

Aah!

and the attack on Lowri Driscoll?

CADI: If that was our man who attacked Lowri last night,

We were hoping you had time for a few questions.

it's only a matter of time until he tries it again.

JAMES: Is now a good time, Mr. Harris?

Who the hell are you?

Yeah, sure.

You know, Cad, you could show a bit more interest.

How can I help?

Seriously, Elin?

HUW: I'm fine. There's no need to fret.
