Where are those fire engines?

Forensics have confirmed
that the knife

is a match for Matty's wounds.

We found it outside your caravan.

Outside? No, it's in the flowers.

Here, look. Well, that's Matty
there in the light jacket

with the yellow bag.

No sign of Matty's phone
in the wreckage.

We are three days in, Cora!
It's not good enough!

Now, why the hell have you still
got it? Get it moved.

No wonder there's no trace of him

in Lisa's contacts or social media.

Leo has to be a nickname.

When you reported the leak
to your DCI,

did she inform her superiors?

Not at that point, no.

My time in the force is up, Lindo.

I'm at Loughty Hall and my suspect
is dead on arrival.

I repeat, suspect is DOA.

Only obvious injury is a blow
to the head.

His body was still warm
when I found him,

so it can't have happened long
before I got here.

Maybe an hour or so.

So, what now?

I mean, it could be a burglary
gone wrong,

but it's too remote to be
opportunistic.

We should talk to Gifford,
see if he heard anything.

Uniform have been around,
and he's not there.

They're trying to locate him.

All right, well, there's not
much more we can do here.

Let Soco do their thing and see what
they've got for us in the morning.

Hey, have you filed your report yet?

As soon as I get in.

Did you include everything
we discussed?

I can't answer that.

Have you changed your mind?

No. No, I stand by everything
I said.

I just want to be ready
for the fallout.

You and me both.

Davis!

I hear you had quite the evening?

Yeah...

I'll see you inside.

How's it going?

Well, we have an extra murder
on our hands now,

so not great.

It's a good thing the killer was
gone by the time you arrived.

Is it? I thought our job was
to catch criminals?

I just meant because you were
on your own.

You could have been hurt.

Our prime suspect was a flight risk.

And for the record, it was my call -
no-one sent me there on my own.

I wasn't following orders.

So if you're looking for someone
to blame...

You think that's what this is about?

Good luck with the case.

Harper!

LINDO SIGHS

Bart.

Lindo.

So, I lied about Harper.

I know.

I'm sorry.

You should be.

But so am I.

You didn't feel like you could be
honest, and that's on me.

Wow.

An apology from Lara Bartlett.

I think you'll find I never actually
said the word sorry.

Right, let's get started, shall we?

Loughty might be dead,

but he's still our prime suspect
as far as the double murder

is concerned.

All the evidence that led us to him
still stands.

So we know that he deliberately
doctored

the inventory of the contents
of Loughty Hall.

Our working theory from yesterday:

he lied about the murder weapon
because he stole it from Rose

while he was looking for the
agreement in the wooden box.

He then used it to kill Matty Gough.

Which could all still be true.

If we still suspect Loughty,
why has he been killed?

See, that is another
piece of the puzzle.

We now have three dead bodies,

so something does link these
two cases.

We just need to find out
what that is.

Right, Monty, what does Soco have
for us?

They found this on Loughty's desk.

It's a paper receipt
for a phone shop

near to where we last had signal
on Matty's phone.

Date and time match.

Uniform went round this morning and
got a positive ID on Loughty.

The shop have confirmed they gave
him access to the phone.

The same make and model as Matty's.

Did Soco find the phone
at his house?

Not yet, but it was clear
that one of the drawers

had been forced open.

And we got a signal from Matty's
phone last night.

It was turned on at Loughty Hall

around the time of the
Laird's death.

So it was definitely there.

Loughty had it, now it's gone.

It's likely whoever murdered him
has taken it.

Soco also found this.

A jerrycan in one of the outhouses.

Rose was nearly killed in the fire.

It could have been some
kind of revenge attack,

but then why take the phone?

The other thing about the jerrycan

is it had just two sets of prints
on it.

Richard Loughty

and Bill Gifford.

His right-hand man.

So either Loughty set the fire
himself

or ordered Gifford to do it.

Hmm.

Either way, I think he knows more
than he's letting on.

Mr Gifford.

We're sorry for your loss.

GIFFORD CHUCKLES

Mm-hm.

We, er, need to have a chat with you
about the laird.

What's that burning?

Debris from the garden. I was
cutting back some hedges.

Funny looking hedges.

Do we know what Gifford was burning?

Looks like some kind of contract.

The logo at the top belongs
to Atlantixa Capital,

the American company buying
the Loughty estate.

Gifford's family have been ghillies
on that estate for generations.

He can't have been very happy
about Loughty selling it.

Worth killing him for?

I don't think so.

We're assuming he was against
the sale,

but what if we were wrong?

Gifford discovered the bodies
of Matty and Lisa

and told his boss before
reporting it.

OK, so, if they were working
together,

then all of the evidence that led us
to Loughty

implicates Gifford as well.

An accessory at the very least.

So how does Loughty end up dead?

Maybe one of them had an attack
of conscience, got cold feet?

A fatal altercation?

Gifford burns the contract to hide
any evidence of his involvement.

OK, yeah.

I mean, with Loughty dead,

Gifford's our only chance at getting
some answers.

Do you want to lead?

No, you two can do it.

Just let me know what you get
from him.

You gave your life to that estate.

Makes sense why you'd want to
benefit from its sale.

You and the laird had to do some
awful things to make sure

that sale went through.

You know we've got your fingerprints
all over the jerrycan

that was used in the caravan fire
that almost killed Rose Gough.

Which one of you killed Matty Gough

and destroyed his phone
to hide the proof?

You've got this wrong.

Did Richard lose his nerve?

Threaten to confess and hand
the phone in,

exposing the two of you?

So you had to...

..get rid of him?

Killed him?

Burned the contract to destroy any
trace that you were ever involved?

I didnae kill the laird. I wasn't
even on the estate last night.

Where were you?

I have a lady friend in Lossiemouth.

I took her out to dinner,
stayed over.

And she'll attest to that?

She will, as will her granddaughter
who bides with her.

So that's where I was last night,

and the night of the caravan fire.

I had nothing to do with that.

Then why are your prints all over
the jerrycan?

It's my jerrycan -

of course my fingerprints are going
to be all over it.

Mr Gifford, as things stand,
Richard Loughty's

in the frame for some very
serious crimes,

not least the murders of Matty Gough
and Lisa Sterling.

We might not be able to charge him

but we can still pursue you
as an accessory.

Look, when I came back to the estate
the morning after the fire,

I realised the jerrycan
was missing.

Did you ask him about it?

I kent something wasnae right.

He wasn't himself.

Was rattled, like.

And that's when I found out
he nearly killed

the old traveller woman, Rose.

So he admitted it?

He paid me to get rid of
the jerrycan.

Paid you?

Aye, promised me a cut of the deal
with the Americans.

Well, it must have been some deal.

Because you could've walked away
with your hands clean.

It seemed like easy money for
keeping my mouth shut.

I was going to lose my home,
my livelihood.

Might as well make
something from it.

When Richard showed up dead...

..I kent he'd already signed
the contract.

If the sale went through,
I'd get nothing.

So I burned it.

Save the estate, put things right.

Do you know about a letter

that Richard's late mother
gave to Rose Gough,

enshrining the travellers' rights
to use the estate?

Lady Anabelle was a good woman.

She gave the travellers sanctuary

when the rest of the landowners
threatened

to put their bairns in care.

When did the laird find out
about this letter?

I have nae idea.

He was rattled.

Worried it would scupper his sale.

Turned the big house upside down
looking for it.

Longer it went on, the more
desperate he got.

That's why he set the caravan
on fire.

He was convinced it was in there.

And did he throw the knife in, too?

To dispose of it?

What knife?

The one used to kill Matty.

I don't ken anything about a knife.

We believe that Richard Loughty was
in a secret relationship

with Lisa Sterling.

Do you know anything about that?
GIFFORD SCOFFS

Well, that wouldnae surprise me.

He was a bit of a playboy
in his day.

How far do you think Richard
would've gone

to ensure the sale of the estate
went ahead?

He was desperate.

I think he would've done anything.

Gifford confirmed Loughty set fire
to Rose's caravan.

We checked with his alibis.

Both the lady friend
and granddaughter

confirmed he was with them
the night of the fire

and the night Loughty was killed.

OK, well, let's charge him
for defeating

the ends of justice,
and send him home.

Anything else on Lisa and Leo?

Nothing conclusive.

Didn't think it was impossible,

but no knowledge of them
being an item.

Right, so until evidence tells us
otherwise,

we are working on the theory
that Loughty was Leo,

and they also used Lisa to get
the agreement

and kill the two teenagers.

And if it was Loughty that broke
into Rose's caravan

and stole the knife that
killed Matty,

why didn't he find the letter -

if it was literally sewn
into the box?

Gifford reckoned that Loughty
was still looking for it

after the teenagers died.

Look, these are all valid questions,
OK.

But until we have the answers
for them,

I want to talk to the people most
likely to want Loughty dead.

Monty, will you let Alex Nichols
know to meet us

down at the travellers' site.

We'd best keep this official.

Boss.

Too many things don't add up.

If Matty's phone had evidence of
the murders on it,

why would Loughty's killer take it
if the motive is revenge?

Why not just wait for us to find it?

I don't think Loughty was Leo.

Someone else killed those teenagers.

Right, well, we need to go up
to the travellers' site,

rule them out of Loughty's murder.

Let's see what else we can find
when we're up there.

Maybe one of them is hiding
what they know

about this agreement.

Look, you're wasting your time
getting out of that car.

We've heard about Richard Loughty.

We'll not have you coming here

and make it look like one of us
did it.

You've been here every day.

It's harassment.
You've no right.

Three people are dead.

Including one of our own!
Jackson, mate.

Back off, right.

Look, they're just doing their jobs.

No-one's pointing any fingers.

Unbelievable. We just need to ask
a few questions.

Always your first port of call, eh?

If you've nothing to hide, then it
won't be a problem.

Jackson, come on.

Emotions are running high.

But I'm sure you can appreciate that
under the circumstances.

Yeah, well, of course.

But listen, before we get started...

..were you aware Richard Loughty
was selling the estate?

I mean, as a council employee,

were you aware of the planning
application?

I haven't mentioned it
to anyone here.

Because, well, I'd hoped it
would be denied.

I didn't want to upset anyone
about something

that might never happen.

Did anyone mention it to you?

Could they have found out
another way?

That sounds a lot like an accusation
disguised as a question.

It is our job to look at all
the possibilities.

Preventing the sale -

a compelling motive.

Nobody here had anything to do
with what happened

to the laird, right?

They're good people.

And if you want them onside,
if you want to gain their trust,

then you need to start
believing that.

Look, I'd never heard of this
letter before you lot started

talking about it.

OK, but if Rose kept this letter
in the knife box

that Lady Annabelle gave her,

do you think there's a chance that
Matty could've seen it?

I mean, if he did, he never let on.

Why would Rose keep it to herself?

Why wouldn't she tell you

to help protect your future here?

Well, Rose didn't trust anybody.

Understandably.

When she was lucid, she would
warn us.

When you've got something precious,
it can be used against you,

taken away.

Best to keep it to yourself.

Hold it close so you don't lose it.

Rose has always maintained
we had rights,

but she's never mentioned
any letter.

Oh.
How are you doing, Rose?

Nae bad.

My knight in shining armour.

You've certainly made
an impression.

Sorry we couldn't be more help.

No college today?

Some of the lads from the estate
thought it'd be funny

to take one of the signs from
the corner shop

and stick it on my locker.

What sign?

"No travellers allowed."

Mm.

There was a time when people didn't
want me in their shops either.

They are the problem -
not you, yeah?

Should you not be at work, Billy?

Huh?

They've not laid you off, have they?

Just on my break, Rosie.

Not to worry.
Ah, OK.

Billy?

She gets confused sometimes.

I mean, he's been dead for years,

and we don't even look the same.

Your father?

Ah.

What are you lot doing here anyway?

Just a few more questions.

Does the name Leo mean anything
to you?

Leo? Mm.

No, why?

Did you ever hear of Lisa having
a secret boyfriend?

An older guy? Maybe someone
from college?

No, she was always just with Matty.

Would you mind not telling my mammy
about the stuff at college?

I told her I had the morning off.

Things are hard enough the now.

Sure.

Cheers.

Is there anyone outwith
the community

that would have access
to Rose's van,

or Shelley's?

A stranger?

Nah, we don't get many visitors
round here.

Hmm. And any uninvited guests would
stand out like a sore thumb, eh?

Yep.

PHONE VIBRATES

Sorry. Excuse me.

Monty?

Nichols?

Aye, he's still here.

I've been look through
Richard Loughty's devices -

his phone, his computers.

There's no communication with
Lisa Sterling at all.

Well, not on any registered
devices anyway.

But I did find something intriguing
in his call list

the day he died.

OK.

I'll bring him in for a chat.

What was Monty saying?

Just some records that show Nichols

phoning Loughty on the day he died.

I'm going to bring him in.

I was wondering if you wouldn't mind
coming to the station with us,

just to answer a few questions?

Yeah, of course. No problem.

Thanks. Appreciate it.

What did she want?

I was just asking how much longer
they were going to be.

Don't lie to me.

I heard her on the phone.

What did she say?

I know what it's like to be
on the outside,

so you can always hit me up at the
station if you need to talk.

How much time does Alex spend here?
Why?

Is it more than usual because of
what's going on? Or...?

He's just doing his job.

I don't want you talking
to my son without me.

We were just chatting, ma.

He could be putting ideas
in your head,

trying to trick you into saying
something you don't mean.

Wise up, son.

Have a good day.

Where's Alex going?

According to the laird's phone
records,

he called you yesterday.

Yeah, he wanted to talk about
the sale of the estate.

So he knew you were
aware of his plans?

Well,

I'd gone to him when I first
found out,

and I asked him to reconsider

on behalf of the travellers.

Er, but he wasn't interested.

He asked for my help to
convince them to leave.

And the phone call yesterday?

Well, that was one last-ditch
attempt,

before he went to the States.

He actually offered me money to help
find Lady Annabelle's letter.

You knew about it?

Yeah. I mean, only what he'd
told me.

Did you accept the bribe?

I told him I wasn't interested.

It's my job to help the traveller
community,

to serve them, so...

And how did he take that?

I don't know, because I hung up.

What were your movements after you
spoke to him on the phone?

Why? You were the last person
he called before he died.

So?

Uh!

You don't think I have anything
to do with this?

What were your movements,
Mr Nichols?

Right.

I took Shelley to a hospital
appointment.

Then I went to the office.

I worked until about nine,
and then I went home.

Alone?

Yeah.

I mean, one of my neighbours
will have seen me.

Taxi service to the hospital.

That part of your job description?

They're like family.

I do what I can.

They just wanted to ask
a few questions.

Just standard procedure.

There's nothing to worry about.

You OK?

Right, you, time to get to college.

You've got exam prep.

I can study here.

There are too many distractions
today.

Come on, move.

OK?

PHONE VIBRATES

KNOCKING

Yeah?

Alex Nichols here to see you, boss.

Alex?

There's something you need to see.

Matty Gough's bag?

Where did you get that from?

Shelley Crockford's caravan.

This was Matty's bag.

He was seen wearing it at Rose's
party on the night he died.

Footage from the party shows
he had it

when he entered the woods,

but it was not with his body
when it was found.

We believe the killer took this bag
when they fled the scene.

Why was it in your van, Shelley?

Why do you have it?

Who gave it to you?

I just...

..wanted it all to stop.

Everything's going to be OK, right.

I'll make sure they look after her.

Alex.

What's going on?

I-I-I need to go.

Leave me alone.

What's happening?

He's just upset with everything
that's going on.

What they were doing to Noah,
it was cruel.

Every single day, he'd come
back from college in tears.

And even at home...

..they got to him through his phone.

I know I should've gone to her
parents first, but...

..they were never going to
listen to someone like me.

They don't want us here.

What happened when you saw Lisa
at Rose's party?

Nothing.

I didn't want to cause a scene
and ruin things for Rose.

But then I saw her sneak out,

so I followed her.

Where did she go?

Into the woods.

She was with some guy.

Did you recognise him?

No.

See, Lisa was in a secret
relationship,

and we believe that that's
who she was meeting

that night in the woods.

I'd never seen him before.

Can you describe him?

Around her age, I guess.

A teenager?

I think so.

What happened after he left?

I went into the woods.

I just wanted to talk,

reason with her.

She wouldn't listen.

She said he deserved it.

We argued and...

..I pushed her.

I was just so angry.

She hit her head...

..when she fell.

It was an accident.

And where was Matty?

He must have followed her.

I didn't know he was there till
he started screaming at me.

Said he'd filmed it all and was
going to call you lot.

I panicked.

And I chased him.

I wouldn't have caught him
if he hadn't tripped.

He was hysterical.

Shouting about Lisa, and how he was
going to ruin me.

I just needed him to be quiet.

To let me explain...

..that it was an accident.

But he wouldn't.

So, what did you do?

I'd taken the dagger from
Rose's caravan,

from the wooden box.

For protection.

But then Matty was too strong,
and...

What happened next, Shelley?

I stabbed him.

Where?

His chest.

Some of the things she said
in there -

the details about how Matty
and Lisa died -

that is stuff only the killer
would know.

But how could she move Matty's body
that far on her own?

She could've had help?

Check her phone records,

see if she reached out to anybody
that night.

None of this explains
anything about Leo.

Well, maybe it's unconnected.

That journal entry -

we know she was meeting him
in the woods.

And Shelley said she saw her
with someone.

A boy her own age.

Which Richard Loughty was not.

Then, who is Leo?

We need to find him to verify
Shelley's story.

Well, all we can do is work
with what we've got

in front of us right now, and that
is a confession.

I think we need to dig
a little deeper.

Why did you take Matty's bag?

I thought his phone would be in it.

He'd been filming when I confronted
Lisa in the woods.

Caught the whole thing.

But there was no phone in it?

So we know that Matty's phone
was turned on

at Loughty Hall,

around the same time Richard Loughty
was killed.

Our forensic team has combed
every inch of that property.

Not a phone in sight.

So that tells us that the killer
must have taken it with them.

On the morning of the laird's
fatal assault,

you had a hospital appointment.

Alex Nichols took you.

Yeah.

Just a check-up.

Hmm.

Nichols said that he waited on you
for nearly two hours.

I snuck off,

went to the big house.

What for?

Loughty had paid me a visit
a few days earlier.

He had Matty's phone.

Said he'd found it in the woods.

And he'd had it unlocked.

So he knew you killed Lisa?

He said Rose had an agreement
with his mother.

He wanted me to find it
and bring it to him.

Threatened to show people
the footage if I didn't.

So you did know about the agreement?

I took it from the box.

To keep it safe.

It was sewn into the bottom of it.

Along with the knife.

But you didnae give him this,
did you?

The Loughty estate is
an ancestral camp

for my people.

Our kind have stopped and stayed
there for generations.

I wasn't prepared to let that man
take it from us

to serve himself and his greed.

People think they can threaten
our families

and our heritage to move us
off their land?

Nah.

I wasn't having it.

So what happened at Loughty Hall?

He laughed at me.

Said he wasn't going to let anyone
stop him selling the estate.

He picked up his phone to call you,

and I tried to stop him.

He fell.

Hit his head.

What happened to Matty's phone?

It was locked in a drawer.

I had to break it open.

That's when your detective appeared.

Where is the phone now?

It's gone.

I threw it in the sea.

Right, we know Matty's body
was moved.

There is no way she did that
on her own, so that's a lie.

Plus, she claims she stole
the dagger

and then a couple of days later

found the letter from Lady Annabelle
in the same place.

Why not show someone,

go to the press,

make sure everybody knew they had
rights to the land?

Loughty couldn't sell.

She was blinded by confronting
Lisa about Noah?

Is it not more important to protect
him in the long run?

If she found it before meeting Lisa,

why go to the woods instead of
securing her son's future?

His home?

I don't know. Her kid
was being bullied.

Maybe she thought that was more
important in the moment?

It don't add up.

What if she's only giving us
half the truth?

She didn't find the letter
or the dagger.

Leo did.

And she's covering for him.

So, who is he?

All we know for sure -

he's a man and he was looking for
that agreement

before Lisa and Matty were killed.

Loughty set fire to the caravan
after Lisa died.

He was still looking for the letter,

so it's unlikely he had the knife
that killed Matty.

Because they were both kept
together.

We have alibis for Adam and Carl.

Which leaves the travellers.

Well, they all claimed they never
knew about an agreement.

And surely, if they did,
they'd shout about it

to protect the community.

Shelley claims she saw a random guy
in the woods

before she killed Lisa,

but a random guy wouldn't be able
to access the travellers' site

to try and steal a letter
and a dagger -

not without being noticed.

So it's someone who's not a part
of the community

but can come and go as he pleases.

Someone close enough to access
Rose's caravan

without ruffling feathers.

Someone they all trust.

Someone who knew about
the estate sale

because he works for the council.

Someone who was the last person that
Loughty called before his death.

Bull's-eye.

BARTLETT SIGHS
News of Shelley must have got out.

Yous have known all this time, eh?

Hey! Keep your hands off her!

Hey! Hey!

I always knew it! I always knew it!
Come on, then!

Break it up, man! Break it up!

Nice tattoo.

Is that a lion's face?

Yeah.

It was a good idea in my 20s.

This is a sketch from one
of Lisa's journals.

Look familiar?

You never mentioned that you were
in a relationship

with one of the murder victims.

Slip your mind, did it, Leo?

It was just a fling. It was a bit
of fun.

That's not what it sounds like
in your girlfriend's journal.

No, she wasn't my...

Look, she was infatuated,

and...I made a mistake.

Do you think?

You were very quick to bring us the
bag you found in Shelley's caravan.

It's a shame you weren't
so forthcoming

about your own dirty secret.

I ended it.

So it was over.

And I didn't think it was relevant.

Not relevant?

Because I didn't kill her!

But you did meet her -

in the woods, the night she died.

Another thing that you
failed to mention.

Lisa wrote about it in her journal,

said you arranged to meet
so you could talk.

To break up with her.

She said you found out about
a document

that could change everything,
stop something big.

What was that?

Finding Rose's letter
from Lady Annabelle

could stop the sale,

but why would that change
everything?

You see, this is about more
than a job,

or a commitment to the travellers.

What did Lisa mean?

I don't know.

The night Richard Loughty
was killed,

we checked with your neighbours -
nobody saw you come home.

So?

So you lied. Where was you?

Why is Shelley Crockford
covering for you?

Where was you between 10 and 12

on the night Lisa and Matty
were killed?

You've been hiding in plain sight
the whole time.

I'm not going to answer
any more questions.

Er...

I need to speak to a lawyer.

If he's so innocent, why request
a lawyer?

I thought he was coming over
the desk.

I've pulled Shelley's phone records.

She didn't call anyone the night
of the murders,

but I did notice lots of calls
to and from the Farrar Centre.

What? The cancer clinic?
Yeah.

I requested her medical records.

Whoa.

Right.

Better tell Mac.
No, I can do it.

I need to talk to her about
something else anyway.

Oh, yeah? What about?

Er, just the forensics from the...

Lindo.

Just let me do this, OK?

What's going on? I can't tell you
that right now, I'm sorry.

You really need to start
getting some answers.

The press are all over the death
of Richard Loughty.

We have a confession.

My team are working hard to get
the evidence to support it.

KNOCKING

Yes!

Boss, I need a word.

In private, respectfully.

Clock's ticking, Cora.

Monty pulled Shelley's
medical records.

She has cancer.

It's terminal and she's known
for a few weeks.

When Nichols brought us
Matty's bag,

we thought it was about doing
the right thing.

But I think Shelley's in on it.

She's taking the fall to protect him
because...

Well...
She's living on borrowed time.

We know Nichols is Leo.

Lisa's diary said he was looking
for the land agreement

to stop something from happening.

What if he was trying to stop
the sale of the estate

so that Shelley could see out
her days there?

Yeah, but why not just tell them
about the agreement?

The travellers' right, why hide it?

Because something happened
in the forest.

And whatever it was, it's on Matty's
phone.

Loughty saw it and thought he could
have it to get Rose's agreement.

That's how he ended up dead.

I think Nichols killed him.

Possibly Lisa and Matty, too.

I'll talk to her again.

Have you told Willis about
your resignation?

I have a responsibility
to this team,

and to those dead teenagers.

That's my priority right now.

Forensic evidence tells us

that you moved Matty's body
after you killed him.

We checked all your phone records.

There's quite a lot of calls
from the Farrar.

The cancer clinic.

They told us your prognosis.

I'm sorry.

You've been having treatment
for a while now.

You must be tired.

In a lot of pain, physically
and mentally.

There's no way you carried Matty
through the woods on your own.

Have you told Noah yet?

That it's terminal?

Some people...

..talk about how hearing those words
brings them peace.

Clarity.

The only thing that's clear to me

is how little time I have left
with my son.

MACMILLAN SNIFFS

All those years of treatment,

I forced myself to feel.

So that he could feel it, too.

And then I had to just take it all
away from him.

What's going on with Mac?

I've never seen her so affected
by a suspect.

PHONE RINGS

DI Bartlett.

Yes, he's here.

Right.

Yeah. OK, yeah, I'll let him know.

Thanks.

That was Marsh at the college.

Noah's kicked off.

He's given Adam a doing.

Anyway, he says he'll only speak
to you.

Did you know that Alex Nichols and
Lisa were seeing each other?

What's Alex got to do with this?

Are you in love with him?

Is that why you killed Lisa?

Jealousy?

I told you what happened.

She was bullying my son.
I wanted it to stop.

End of story.

Hey, Noah.

What's going on, man?

Talk to me.

He said my ma's a murderer.

The whole college is talking
about it.

People like him,

they think they can treat us
like we don't matter.

Lisa did it, too.

I'm sick of it.

Let's go to the station so you can
see your mum.

Yeah?

Did someone take a DNA sample while
you were being processed?

Yeah.
Fingernails?

Good, good.

We'll be looking for traces
of Matty's skin.

He had defensive wounds on his face,
suggesting that he fought back.

That fits with your description.

I, er, cleaned my fingernails -

that night, when I got home.

But you did scratch him?

Yeah.

His face.

There were no defensive wounds.

No scratches on Matty's face.

You haven't answered my question
about Alex Nichols.

Are you in love with him?

That picture in your locker -

you and Alex Nichols -
when was it taken?

Couple of months ago.

Ah!

You guys hang out often?

You know, it's funny - I have
a picture just like that.

Me and my father went fishing
at Treasure Beach,

back home in Jamaica.

I had the best day.

You know, he was always working,

so it was rare to get that kind
of quality time.

I loved every second.

Alex Nichols spends a lot of time
at the camp with you and your mum.

Is he your real father?

How long have you known?

Not long.

Yeah.

Do you want me to chuck your bag
in the boot?

Can I take a look in your bag,
please, Noah?

Noah's whole life has been shaped
by the fact he's a traveller.

Born into this community.

This life.

People don't understand.

He always thought that Billy
was his real dad.

It was only after we lost him
that I told him about Alex.

He was so angry.

Noah lived in a world where being
a traveller means

out there you don't belong.

And then I told him he was a buck?

Othered by his own people,

his own culture...

..because he was born out of a love

that would never be accepted
by either side.

Even now.

We still have to hide it.

Because there are folk that would
look at him differently,

knowing he doesn't have pure
traveller blood.

But he still wants Alex
in his life.

He finally got to have both parents,

and then the doctors tell me there's
nothing more they can do.

Just as Noah finds peace...

..I had to take it away.

What is it?

Is that Matty's phone?

Where did you get this, Noah?

Is there something on this that
you don't want us to see?

Has it got something to do with what
happened to Matty and Lisa?

If we check this phone, are we going
to see you helping Mum or Dad?

I don't know how long she has.

But I can't let her spend
that time in jail.

Mammy didn't do anything.

She wasn't even there.

I'm just trying to understand.

Because we were good, and then
you just ended things.

And I don't even get an explanation?

There's nothing to explain.

I'm not so sure that your boss
would agree with that.

Maybe I'll just have a little chat
with him,

let him know what you've been up to.

Matty, get your phone out!

I want to make sure everyone knows

exactly the kind of man
that you are.

Are you covering for Nichols?

Why are you protecting him?

I'm not covering for anyone!

I told you it was me.

Leave him alone!
Stay out of this, Noah!

Can we do this tomorrow?

When everyone's a little bit calmer?

No, I want to talk about it now.

What?

What, you're scared your wee pal
over there

will realise you're not some
big hero after all?

That you just used me and chucked me
away when you had your fun?

That's not what happened.

Then what did happen?

Go on, tell the world - because
we're all dying to know.

Matty, can you turn that off,
please?

No, ignore him.

You made your bed.

You know, I thought you cared
about me.

But you are just like all
the rest of them.

And I am sick,

fed up of men like you thinking you
can just do whatever you want.

No, I am going to destroy you.

Shut up, Lisa!

LISA SCREAMS

I didn't mean to hurt her.

Dad?

Matty.

Give me the phone.

Matty.

Thanks, Bart.

See you soon.

Terminating interview at 20:53.

Why are you doing that?
What's going on?

Noah confessed.

No.

He's lying.

He's just doing it to protect me.

We've got the phone.

We know what happened in the woods.

Monty, can you bring in
Alex Nichols

to the interview room?
No.

Please.

MATTY GASPS

Matty!

I took the dagger from Rose's
caravan earlier that night,

when I was looking for the letter.

I heard someone coming.

I panicked,

I just put the whole box
into my jacket.

KNOCKING

I just wanted...to explain.

You know, to try and reason
with him.

What are you up to?

Ugh!

Matty!

Get off!

Right, talk to me! Right!

VOICEOVER: He wouldn't listen to me.

He killed her! He murdered her!

I couldn't let him tell people
about Noah.

It was an accident.

But he's a traveller boy.

Who's going to believe that?

THEY STRAIN

MATTY SCREAMS

MATTY GASPS

And Richard Loughty?

Well, he found out about
me and Lisa.

That's why I ended him.

He was blackmailing me.

He wanted Rose's letter.

But I knew that if he got his hands
on it, the sale would go through,

and Noah and Shelley...

..they would never be able
to come back again.

And then he showed me
Matty's phone.

The footage.

He found it in the woods.

He saw blood on it.

No, I will NOT get out of your way.

And when he heard about what
happened with Lisa...

Get out of my way!
Get out of the way!

..he kept it to use it against me.

I had to get it off him.

Alex Nichols, I'm arresting you
on suspicion of the murders

of Matty Gough and Richard Loughty.

Where's Noah?

He needs his father.

Please!

Just...

..let me do this.

My life is already over.

Noah has already been charged.

I'm sorry.

KNOCKING AT DOOR

Yep?

Sorry, Ma.

I couldn't do it.

She's sick, isn't she?

CORA BREATHES DEEPLY

Mac.

SHE SNIFFS

He told you.

No.

I'm a detective, remember.

SHE SIGHS

I didn't have your back,

and I'm sorry.

How are you doing?

It is what it is.

Oh, Cora.

Oh, God.

Come here.

Hey.

CORA SOBS

I've just had an update
from the Crown Office.

Our recommendation of
involuntary manslaughter

has been approved for
Noah Crockford.

He's been released on bail,
pending trial.

I've got something to do upstairs.

Cora.

I have no regrets about the way
I handled the Mallick situation.

Yes, Detective Lindo told me there
could be a leak,

but my priority in that moment

was finding our missing
witness and keeping her safe.

My only mistake...

..is that I put my trust
in a senior officer

who allowed himself
to be compromised.

Now, if you want to take me
down, Graeme,

at least have the balls to be
honest about it,

instead of driving a wedge
between me and my team.

Wind your neck in, Cora,
the investigation's over.

Harper from SBIS has
submitted a report.

Your officers made statements
defending your decisions,

praising your leadership,

and each and every one of them

made it very clear that you
have their full support.

You can see yourself out.

Sir.

And, Cora?

I don't know what it is
that's going on in your
personal life at the moment,

but I sincerely hope
that it works out OK for you.

Now, off you pop.

# Oh, the summertime has come

# And the trees
are sweetly blooming...

Cora?

# ..And the wild mountain thyme

# Grows around the blooming heather

# Will you go, lassie, go?

# And we'll all go... #

Do you think that you could stop
trying to get yourself killed?

No more running into burning
caravans,

or chasing down murder
suspects on your own.

If you'd got there any sooner...

Loughty could still be alive.

Aye, but you might not be.

All right.

On one condition.

Stop waiting for people to tell you
that you're good enough.

You need to believe in yourself
more, Bart.

Trust your instincts.

Mm, don't know.

My instincts have been known to
let me down on occasion.

It's rare but it does happen.

But I take your point.

And I will stop doubting myself,

if you start being honest
about what you want.

I've always got your back, Bart.

I'd hope so, Numpty.

I'll see you tomorrow.

# Will you go, lassie, go?

# And we'll all go together

# To pull wild mountain thyme

# All around the blooming heather

# Will you go, lassie, go? #
