[Edward] So� is this it?

Is this where my mother lives?

- Sorry. - [Julie] Mm.

Birth mother.

No, it's fine.

Who needs a label? Although dealing with your shitty nappies for an entire decade

- should've earned me a label of some kind. - A decade?

We're veering off-piste here, guys.

[Kayla] This is the right address.

So were the last two.

- Third time's a charm, right? - Sure.

Do something twice, it doesn't stand a chance.

Do something three times, you'll be sharting out

beams of stardust from every orifice, like my son here did.

I'm just trying to keep up the positive energy.

The origins of the whole third-time-lucky,

or power-of-three thing, actually goes back to the 1800s.

Some people say it started

with repeating a spell or incantation three times for it to work.

Yes, I am procrastinating.

I'm gonna do it before I realise this is a terrible idea.

- Great idea. - Excellent.

[Edward puffs a breath anxiously]

You alright with this?

Yeah, why wouldn't I be?

Well, he's your boy.

No one's anyone's, are they?

He's your boy, Julie.

�Edward!

Is he�

Is he talking to himself?

He's psyching himself up.

I've seen him doing it in the mirror before a job interview.

It's not too late to call off the engagement.

- You're not getting rid of me that easy. - No.

If I wanted to, you'd be in a bin liner at the bottom of a lake by now.

Nice.

Okay.

Here he goes.

[doorbell rings]

Press it�

Press it again!

What?

Press it again.

[doorbell rings]

Hi, erm�

sorry, I'm�

I'm Edward Green�

are you�

Louise Hendrikx?

- My father, well - - Jean-Luc.

You look�

just like him.

It's you.

[emotionally] I can't believe it's you.

You�

you're my mother?

I've been looking for you for�

too long.

It's taken you too long to find me.

Come in.

Come in.

Yeah, erm�

Guys.

This is my�

mum, Julie.

Thank you.

F-for being his mother.

Thank you.

Oh, well�

alright, then.

Come in.

I was his housekeeper.

You do that job, you see all sides of people.

Your father, you knew where you stood,

but his wife� the American�

always shouting and screaming.

She was�

how do I say�

- She was insane. - Yeah, batshit crazy.

I remember one week�

I was having�

problems.

Marie was away.

Your father, he was usually so stern,

but that night, he listened.

Really listened.

It was only once.

The chances of me getting pregnant must have been�

I don't know what he said to his wife, but he'd always wanted a child, and I was�

going� through some things.

I'm sorry, I� I was young, and�

It's� it's okay.

What� what sort of things?

- What sort of problems? - Mum.

- What? - [Edward] Just�

It doesn't matter. It's history now.

Anyway�

Thank God he had you, Julie.

You're so pretty.

Thank you.

Right.

And you, you are really pretty.

Thank you, that's so nice. I mean, you're� you're also really pretty.

- I'm not as pretty as you two. - Erm, I don't think that�

I know this is all super-awkward,

but comparing how pretty we all are isn't really helping anything, is it?

I'm sorry, I'm just nervous.

This has been a lot for one evening.

[Edward] Of-of course.

We should give you some space.

No, no, no, no. No, you must stay.

Stay and eat.

We don't wanna put you to any bother.

But for you, my son, nothing is any bother.

[laughter]

Wow, five kids.

All with different man.

Goodness, sounds like I'm bragging almost.

I assure you, I am not bragging.

Sounds like she's bragging.

They're wonderful boys. All in their own ways.

Five boys, that's, er�

quite a handful.

[Louise] Yes, but I wouldn't change it.

I mean, to grow up in a house full of noise and laughter.

Do the two of you talk about children?

Erm, oh yeah, we-we� we do.

- Sometimes. - [Louise] Okay.

Yeah, well, Ed wants a whole football team,

and he wants them now, but, er�

I dunno, I'm not in a rush� there's plenty of life to enjoy.

There's no greater joy than to spend time with your own flesh and blood.

I never forgot about you, Edward.

I'm only sorry that I�

never found you.

You looked for me?

I went back.

But you'd gone.

And�

Jean-Luc being who he was,

I was scared.

And there were police, I had to leave.

I'll never forgive myself for that.

You, er�

you can.

You should. Really.

Erm, Louise is there a bathroom I can use?

Yes, upstairs. Erm, the second door on the right.

[Louise shouts up] Julie?

Is everything alright?

- Are you lost? - [startled] Oh, sorry. I was just�

The toilet is next door. You must have walked straight past it.

[scoffs] Silly me.

Very silly.

[chuckling]

How you doing?

Actually� really great.

It's weird. Whatever I imagined - and I've imagined this a lot -

it's just so much better.

It really feels so easy talking to her.

Not me, surely?

Caught us talking about you behind your back.

You should stay.

Here?

- No, we couldn't. - You've come all this way.

We've booked a place by the Brandenburg gate, so it's fine.

But that's so far.

- Yeah, well, we didn't want to presume. - I insist.

Then�

mm� yeah.

Yes, yes, er� we would love to stay.

Thank you.

Stay where?

Oh� stay� here for the night.

Oh.

How embarrassing, I just realised.

I have only one spare bedroom.

Oh, no that's fine. I'll go back to the hotel.

There's one much closer to here.

Just down the road on Karlstrasse. Then you'll be closer to us.

Okay, I'll do that, then.

Is that� okay?

Of course it is. Why wouldn't it be?

- You will spend time with us tomorrow? - Oh, yeah.

Yep, I wouldn't miss it.

[sporting event audio]

[Louise, hushed] Hey.

[speaking Russian]

[Russian continues]

- [car door closes] - [engine starts]

[suspenseful music intensifies]

[indistinct chatter]

- [laughter] - Guess that's for me, then.

I'm really nervous.

[Edward] I'm teased for my love

of Aperol Spritzes, but, erm�

you know, middle of winter� Aperol Spritz, why not?

- Alright� - [Louise] Say cheers.

[phone line ringing]

[Simon] I didn't expect to hear from you.

Hmm. No. Well, the world's full of surprises.

Have you reconsidered my offer to start working for me?

The operation I run makes Damien's look like -

Yeah, and like I said, I am retired, for good.

So, what do I owe the pleasure?

I need a favour.

Don't you need to owe someone to do them a favour?

Well, you do me a favour, and then I'll owe you a favour.

Fine.

I need info on Louise Hendrikx. She lives in Berlin.

I'm not sure of DOB, but she's in her fifties.

Okay.

Looking now.

Erm�

- Okay, nothing's coming up. - Actually�

�would you try another name?

It's Marguerite Gilles.

Ah�

What? What is it?

[intriguing music fades up]

[Louise] So, Julie�

Edward tells me you used to be a head hunter.

[Julie] Hm.

[Louise] Businessmen?

Yeah, sometimes.

I know you did time for possession of heroin.

You've been looking into me?

I'm looking after my son.

Ah, well, no need to worry.

I already told him everything.

Didn't I, Edward?

Eh, sorry, what?

We talked late last night.

When I told you all about when I went to prison.

About my struggles with addiction.

Er, yeah. Yeah, you did. Why?

Uh, well�

your mother was asking me, that's all.

Er, mind if I have a word, Mum?

Erm, this one.

Kayla�

tell me about your work. I'm interested to know.

[Kayla] Well, er�

Yeah, I-I just�

You did a fucking background check on her?

- Look, I - - How dare you?

It-it's� it's just� it's what I do.

Okay, I'm�

suspicious, I'm overprotective, I'm really fucking menopausal

and I have insomnia so I - I just�

I'm sorry, okay.

Don't ruin this.

- I'm not - - Just because you've spent your life

making terrible decisions, doesn't mean I have to.

- Are you sure you don't want anything? - Yeah, thanks.

[Kayla] Are you alright?

[Julie] Fine.

You're a terrible liar.

I saw you and Louise earlier.

It's nothing.

Didn't look like nothing. Definitely looked like something.

I just�

I'm just worried he's seeing what he wants to see.

Yeah, you'll get no disagreement from me there.

Really?

- Do you think the same? - You're not the only one who knows him.

This is what he wants.

So we just have to support him.

If it does go to shit, be there to pick him up.

It's, er�

it's a bit more complicated�

than that.

I found� a passport

in her bedroom drawer.

[stutters] It was in another name.

What were you doing in her bedroom?

I was�

looking around her house without permission, but we know

that I'm a bad person�

Just listen to me.

In her top drawer nearest the door, there was something else, a compartment,

underneath, and I didn't look because she came back in.

And then I went outside and there was a guy� out there.

He was�

he was� unsavoury.

- Unsavoury? - Yeah.

What are you fucking Agatha Christie now?

And then Louise came outside,

and they started to� have some kind of argument.

- What about? - I don't know, I was too far away to hear.

[Kayla] What do you think it means?

I'm not sure.

You know what you're doing, don't you?

Almost never.

Okay.

Great.

[thunder rumbling]

[Louise] Ah, a nice warm shower and dry closes are needed.

- [Edward] Yes. - You have towels?

Yeah, yeah, I think so.

[Edward laughs]

Is your mum alright?

- Erm, which one? - Ha ha.

She's, er�

[scoffs] She's fine, just� doing what she always does.

You wanna shower first?

Er, no, no, you go.

[door closes]

[shower starts to run]

[mobile phone ringing]

[Edward, on the phone] Hello?

- Er, yeah. - [muffled conversation continues]

Hang on, er�

That was quick.

Work called as I got in.

- Some issue with� - Can you hear me?

Uh-huh, no, I'm here.

Uh, yeah.

Yeah, no, I got the email.

[suspenseful music intensifies]

[upbeat music playing]

[mobile phone buzzing]

[buzzing continues]

Julie.

Hey.

Luka.

[Luka] What is it?

Yeah, so we, er�

we found Edward's birth mother.

I'm pleased for him.

Am I pleased for him?

Yeah.

Yeah, sort of.

Except�

I think she might be into some bad shit.

Bad shit?

She tries to come across all�. you know, nice and happy.

All like, I'm Mrs Perfect, but�.

I think it's a lie, she is not who she says.

- It takes one to know one. - Ah, ouch.

Weeks go by. You ignore all my messages.

Then you call because you want something.

Look, I just wanted to talk to someone I thought might understand.

And there is no one else, is there?

Because you push everyone away.

As you are doing now to Edward's real mother.

We're� we're not saying real, actually, we're saying birth.

Look, you called for my advice.

Here it is.

Figure out your own shit

before getting involved in everyone else's.

Oh, well�

really glad I called.

You're welcome.

Hey, er, Luka�

Erm, don't suppose there's any chance of a bit of phone sex, is there?

I'll be quick.

Okay.

Bye.

[laughter]

[Louise] He has two.

He called the green one the Green Lady.

- [Kayla] Hey, guys. - Hey.

What have I missed?

Erm, I-I was� well� just learning about my brothers.

- Davi� - Davide, well more specifically�

[voices fade out]

So Louise, five boys?

Must've had your hands full.

- Well, six, including me. - Yes.

Well, yeah-yeah-yeah. Six, yeah.

Would you like a drink?

We're having Negronis.

Er, you know, it's a bit early for me. I might fix myself something lighter.

- Are you sure? - Yeah, it's all good.

Don't wanna interrupt.

- [Louise laughs] - Okay, so there's�

[phone line ringing]

[mobile phone buzzing]

- Hey. - Is this a bad time?

Well, you're interrupting the hour of staring at the wall

wondering what the fuck I'm doing with my life I had planned, but, yeah�

I had a look at that drawer that you told me about.

- And? - I've sent you a photo.

Wow, Jesus.

Yeah� and there were heaps of other numbers,

but that's the one I managed to get a photo of.

Have you told Edward?

No. No, I didn't have time.

Okay, look.

Okay, that's not true. I mean, I just�

I feel like he's swept up in this whole birth mother thing.

He's closing his eyes to all the warning signs.

I don't� think he'd listen.

Alright, don't worry, I'll handle it.

Okay.

Wait, what do I do?

Do I just�

Continue like nothing's different?

Yeah, that's, erm�

that's what you do.

Don't worry, it's easier than it sounds.

I need you to trace a number for me.

Yeah, I realise I now owe you two favours.

Just a trace on the number and the address it's related to.

Hi, I'm looking for Ela Patarinka?

Erm, Ich will keine probleme,

erm, machen, ich�

Uh�

Er�

- [Julie sighs] - [door clicks]

Ela is dead.

Oh. Oh, I'm sorry, I-I was told this was her address -

Who are you?

My name's Julie Green.

Look, I-I think my� my son is in trouble,

and� Ela's number was found next to a-a shitload of cash.

I'm just trying to put pieces together.

Is this making any sense to you?

Come in.

Okay.

[Anya] They came to her.

My sister.

A woman and a man.

- Tattoos all over. - Yeah.

- I think I know who you mean. - They�

made an offer to her.

Same as your son, I imagine.

Money.

Beyond your wildest dreams.

When she first told me what she was going to do, I begged her.

I thought maybe to call the police.

But she swore she would be okay.

'All I have to do is get on a plane', she told me.

The drugs they made her swallow burst in her stomach.

- She was dead before they landed. - Oh, Jesus.

Your son needs to get as far away from these people as possible.

Yeah, I know.

I-I was hoping you might�

talk to him. I just�

I'm not sure he'll believe me.

You care for your son.

I can see that in your face.

But I know too well what those people are capable of.

The answer is no.

[doorbell rings]

[suspenseful music playing]

[door opens]

Julie.

We were not expecting you.

I� I came here to apologise.

[Louise] It's not necessary.

I understand how hard this must be.

But it is.

I came to you talking all kinds of bollocks.

And� and I think, if we're honest with ourselves�

I'm jealous.

If I was more secure in my relationship with my�

with our son, I might not feel the way I do.

Like it's all gonna come crashing down around me.

But you are his biological mother,

and there's no amount of wishing

that wasn't the case that's gonna change that.

So�

I've decided to leave, and I'm gonna go.

Go home, I mean.

What, no, mum�

- there's no need to� - Yeah.

Yeah, you two, you need�

time to get to know each other.

Mm.

And I just wanted to say that� I'm sorry.

To both of you.

[Louise] Think nothing of it.

- We will miss you. - Thank you.

Erm� well, yeah�

okay, if you're�

- if you're sure, I guess. - It's for the best.

Alright, well, erm�

- I'll call, yeah? - Yeah, of course.

Ah, one of my wayward sons

has decided to make an entrance.

Oh, err� hi everyone.

I'm Edward.

- Your brother. Half-brother, technically? - Yes.

Yes, this is Titus.

Introduce yourself properly, boy. Are you a caveman?

No. No. I just thought you�

[Edward laughing] It's all good. It's all pretty weird.

Sorry, this is� Kayla, my fianc�e.

- Nice to meet you. - You too.

Don't think I am going to be doing this washing.

- Anyone would think he's still a teenager. - She will� yeah.

[Kayla, hushed] Julie.

Julie.

- Julie. - I know what you're gonna say.

- What the actual fuck? - It was me saying goodbye.

- No, what about all the money and numbers? -None of our business.

Are you being serious?

I never should have got involved, and I shouldn't have got you involved.

This is bullshit, okay.

Ed is acting like is biological Mum walks on fucking water,

and she's up to some bad shit. He needs to know.

Just look after him.

Okay, and watch your back too, right?

I am serious.

- Just tell me what's going on. - Drop it.

[ominous music fades up]

I dunno, I've been waiting for half an hour or so.

A bient�t, motherfucker.

[gentle music playing]

- [Kayla sighs] - [music intensifies]

[front door opens]

[suspenseful music fades up]

[Kayla] Fuck.

[music fades]

[car door closes]

[car door closes]

[Maxime] Fuck.

What are you doing?

It's uncomfortable. Keeps digging into my stomach.

I recommend less cheese.

Fuck yourself, Marguerite.

Is he coming?

He's late again.

But we love him.

You love him.

The way that you love cheese.

What are they, Polish?

Fuck knows.

You understand English?

Good.

Here are you plane tickets.

You'll be taken straight to the airport after this.

6:20 to Minsk, Terminal One.

You're seated separately.

Don't be stupid and walk in together.

This is an anaesthetic.

It will suppress your gag reflex.

Swallow fast.

But wait a minute between each one.

This is an expensive product.

We need it to stay down.

- [glass breaks] - What the fuck?!

Hey!

Stay back.

- Stay the fuck back. - Don't hurt yourself with that.

Kayla.

What are you doing here?

You're sick.

What you're doing is fucking sick.

- And when Ed finds out - - It will break his heart.

Stay� the fuck back.

What I do to survive is my own business, no?

We can't all grow up taking holidays on daddy's yacht.

Some of us have to live in the real world.

Oh-oh, you think this is the real world?

Sorry, if you think this is the real world, you're fucking crazy.

I'm not asking my son to be part of my world.

My choices are my own, but you judge me to be an unfit mother.

I know about your family, Kayla.

Your father - are you telling me he did not cross some lines

to build that fortune of his?

Did it make him any less your father?

Maybe try not force-feeding people cocaine

while you're delivering your moral lecture, hey?

Okay, fuck this shit.

- Put that fucking gun down before - - [gunshot]

[Maxime gasps]

Holy shit.

How the fuck did you miss from there?

[gasping for air]

[barely audible] Maxime�.

Oh, my God.

[dramatic music playing]

[Kayla] Ugh�

[gunshot]

[Kayla gasps for air]

[gasping] Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

I'm so sorry, I should have listened.

I should've got here sooner.

- I'm sorry, are you okay? - Louise, Louise.

- Louise. - No, she's gone.

- No, no, she can't be. - She's gone. Trust me.

I've got experience. Alright.

Hey, grab that.

Grab� just grab-grab the gun.

Okay.

Can you drive?

- Kayla, are you okay to drive? - Yeah, I can drive.

[Julie] We can't leave your car here.

Er�

Okay, there's a bar.

It's straight up and on the left. Alright, there's a big neon sign.

- Bar Eden, alright? You can't miss it. - Bar Eden, okay.

Kayla�

give me the gun.

Sorry I'm late!

Maybe if we could do this shit at a sensible time we could�

Mama?

I fucking killed her.

Can't get that image out of my head.

Don't think I'll ever get it out of my head.

Time passes.

It goes away.

- I know that sounds - - Psychotic?

�trite.

But we're good� humans�

at compartmentalising.

What the fuck was I thinking?

You were trying to help my son.

No, I was sticking my fucking nose in where it didn't belong.

And for what?

He's never gonna forgive me.

Edward�

doesn't have to know.

I'm not gonna lie to him.

If you tell him the truth,

he's never gonna look at you the same way again.

Trust me.

Yeah, but I can't.

I can't just go back and pretend nothing's happened.

Look.

I know you feel like you owe it to him.

How do you think he's gonna feel

when he finds out he has lost his biological mother,

and the woman he loves more than anything else is responsible?

[Julie scoffs]

And you're gonna have to tell him who his mother was, what she did.

And the final twist of the knife -

none of this would've happened without me.

So here I am again, fucking up his life.

Okay, so what, then?

What, he's just not gonna notice?

Look, I will figure something out.

And I will tell him�

that it was my fault.

- [Kayla sighs] No. - Yeah.

He already doesn't trust me.

Okay, he al� he already struggles to like me.

That's not true.

It's not.

Everything you guys have been through.

You know, I have lied to him� his whole life.

About� who he was,

about who I was.

Who I am.

Hey�

�what's one more?

I am not doing this for you, Kayla.

As much as I'd� as much as I love you, and I do.

I'm doing it for him.

Because if we tell him the truth,

it will destroy him.

And you know I'm right.

["Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" by Starship playing on earbuds]

? Looking in your eyes I see your paradise ?

? This world that I found Is too good to be true ?

? Standing here beside you ?

? Want so much to give you This love in my heart ?

? That I'm feeling for you ?

- ?Let 'em say we're crazy ? - [grunting]

? I don't care about that ?

? Put your hand in my hand�?

[intense suspenseful music fades up]

[lighter flicks open]

[flames crackling]

[music fades]

[doorbell rings]

Mum�

it's� really aggressively early.

Yeah, I� need to talk to you.

You want coffee or�

Louise came to my hotel last night.

Oh, okay.

Yeah, she-she didn't� call or anything.

Just turned up out of the blue.

M-M� Mum, what-what the hell's going on?

She's in trouble.

With the police.

There are warrants out for her arrest.

And she had to leave.

She wanted me to tell you she's sorry,

er� and that�

she'll be in touch

when she can.

And she came to you?

Yeah, maybe she didn't know how to tell you.

Maybe me poking around in the past, maybe it spooked her, I don't know.

I know when you're lying to me.

- You realise that, don't you? - Edward -

No, no, this doesn't make sense, Mum.

Your story doesn't fucking make sense.

I know you're upset.

Don't fucking lie to me!

She came to my door�

and told me she had to go on the run.

Oh, no.

What did you do?

What did you do? What the fuck have you done?

What - how do you always� always find a way to fuck things up?!

- I'm sorry. - Tell me the truth or walk away

- and don't bother coming back. - I'm not lying.

The truth.

She came to my door.

Told me she had to go on the run.

Get out.

Get out.

I don't wanna see you again.

[Titus] I heard it all from the drug mule.

He saw everything.

Your wife shot our mother, Edward.

And Julie covered it up.

You know I'm telling you the truth.

Kayla wouldn't lie to me.

Now tell me where she is.

I'll take you to her, right now.

And when she says the same thing, maybe�

maybe�

you'll think twice

before taking me to the police.

I'm a victim.

- I'm a victim, same as you. - Take me to my fucking wife.

Okay, okay.

It's that way.

Kayla?

[Titus splutters]

Kayla!

[dramatic music playing]

Help!

�Por favor!

[breathlessly] Help me� please.

[Cortez, concerned] Hey, don't worry, you are okay.

You are safe.

[music intensifies]

You are safe now.

It's okay, it's okay.

[music stops]
