Anna? Anna, he wasn't here

when I came to pick him up at the school.

He wasn't here.

Mr and Mrs Marin?

We've got something.

Sam?

Where have you been, baby?

A woman was with him.

Either of you recognise this person?

No, don't know her.

- Have you seen him? - Simon? Yeah, today.

Is he all right?

Well, he's been charged and he's in prison, but...

Listen, listen, I'm his girlfriend.

We're practically married,

so if anything's happened to him, I need to know.

How can I help you?

Angela Erbakan.

She's also known as Angelique.

Detective Staszic came to my office.

Joe, she told me that you're one of Angelique's regular clients.

What are you doing? What are you doing with my son?

Calm down. It's not what you think.

You're not going to get away with this.

Simon?

Simon.

- Yeah? - Hey.

I thought you might want to walk me to work.

- You okay? - Yeah, I'm fine.

Hey, we've got time for a coffee.

- Ooh, where were we? - I took this one away from you.

Sorry, I didn't know you had company.

That's okay. We're just playing cards.

- Don't put in a red. - Red!

You going to introduce me to your friend?

This is Sam. Sam, this is Angela.

Hello.

Hi, Sam.

I'm picking up from this pile. Can I pick from this pile?

- No! - Why not?

That's taking my cards.

Oh, okay.

All right, I'm throwing out a wild card.

Ooh, deal with that.

Really?

- I'm picking another white card. - Sam?

Sam, do you mind if I have a quick chat with... with Simon?

Sure.

- You okay? - What's he doing here?

It's fine.

Oh, Simon, it's not fine.

I'm doing Anna a favour.

Excuse me, can I have some more chips, please?

Of course. You've got lovely manners.

Doesn't he have lovely manners?

I picked him up from school.

Why would Anna ask you to do her a favour?

Look at him. He's fine.

Wait, does... does Joe or Anna know he's here?

Can you keep your voice down?

Is that a no?

Angela, please. You're making a huge scene for no reason.

Should... should we... should we take him home?

No.

Listen, we could just drop him off now,

and everything would be fine.

We're not dropping him off.

Take him back.

You should hear yourself.

Look, listen, just take him back...

and I won't say anything to anybody.

- He's just... - You have to take him back!

He's just here, enjoying himself.

It's only for a couple of hours.

This doesn't need to turn into a big melodrama.

All right, I've got chips.

Yay!

- Plain. - Missed out on salt and vinegar?

No salt and vinegar, I'm sorry. All right.

Yes!

- He's a good boy. - He is a good boy.

Stop. Stop. Stop.

Dilara, please call me back.

You okay, Sam?

Hello?

Are you all right?

Now, this is Barbara...

and she's going to look after you

and she's going to take you downstairs

to see your mum and dad, all right?

Simon Heywood...

you're under arrest for kidnapping.

You don't have to say anything, but anything you do say

will be held against you and may be used in evidence.

Do you understand?

Angela Erbakan?

You called the police?

We need you to come down to the station, right?

There's no need to be anxious if you've done nothing wrong.

I haven't.

And you're not in trouble for calling for help, are you?

We just want to get a bit more detail

about what happened this afternoon,

prior to you calling the police.

Well, I... I was walking past Simon's flat

and I stuck my head in the door.

- It was open? - Sorry?

The door. Was the door usually open, or did that strike you as odd?

Yeah, it was... it was open, I think.

And that's when you first saw him with the child?

Yeah, I know he doesn't have a child of his own, so...

Had you ever seen him with the boy, Sam, before?

- No. - So it was unusual?

Yeah.

But it was all good.

What, because the police got there in time?

What?

You had cause for concern. You called the police.

Yeah, but... they were just playing cards.

We're not accusing you of anything, Angela.

We just want to get an understanding of what happened.

Mm, yeah. Sorry.

How would you describe your relationship with Mr Heywood?

- Ah, we're friends. - Just friends?

And... and neighbours.

He's a good looking bloke.

Does he have many visitors?

Ah, no, he... he keeps to himself.

Was there anything that Mr Heywood said to you

in the lead up to the abduction

that made you concerned for the child's welfare?

Listen, I've already answered that. Can I see Simon now?

No, I'm afraid not.

Mr Heywood is in custody.

You'll be free to leave once we've finished here.

- Yeah, but Sam's safe, though... - The child is being assessed.

I can understand how upsetting this must be for you, Ms Erbakan.

Finding your neighbour with a child that wasn't his.

Yeah, but nothing happened.

Mr Heywood is being charged with kidnapping.

You've done the right thing, Angela, in coming to us.

This situation could have been much, much worse.

Think you know your neighbours, huh?

This looks amazing.

Well, if it's not salty enough for you,

you know where to go.

I love your cooking.

My cooking's fair to middling. You have a salt problem.

Mm, I know.

I'm going to die of a heart attack before I'm 30.

You liking this record?

Mm.

My dad used to play records like this when we were little.

Sounds like we would have gotten along.

It's depressing, but in a good way.

Well, most art is, if you think about the person who made it.

You going to finish your dinner?

Joe came in again.

What'd you talk about?

This and that.

I suppose he could tell you anything.

Or just make stuff up.

Well, long-term clients, like Joe, usually reveal a lot.

I'm like his therapist.

He talk about his marriage?

It's all he talks about.

His horrible, cold wife.

Cold?

Is it just sexual, or...

something else?

Everything.

Does he talk about Sam?

Clients don't usually talk about their kids.

So he just pretends he doesn't exist?

I don't know, he might have mentioned him in passing.

They plan on having kids, or was it something that just happened?

I don't know, Simon. I didn't ask him every detail.

Well, maybe you should.

Is the boy okay?

Are you related to the child?

- Angela, could you look this way? - I'm so sorry.

- Did he try to hurt you? Threaten you? - Of course not.

- Of course not. No. - Did he hurt the kid?

He might have done something before you got there.

Look, this is all just a giant misunderstanding. It's...

So why did you call me?

I don't know.

And you called the police.

I always thought Simon was a creep.

Oh, my God.

They've probably trashed the place.

Are you going to be okay on your own?

Yeah, fine.

I can tell Mum study went late.

It's fine. I'll be okay.

Thanks for picking me up again.

How's little Mahir?

He's in Nanna's bed tonight, so he's happy.

Oh, can I get some money for the cab?

- Love you. - You too.

All right, call me if you need anything.

I will.

Thanks again, D.

Why don't you travel?

I don't know. I'm not really interested in travelling.

Of course you're not now.

I know you're making a fortune, you want to spend it all,

but in five years?

In five years time, um,

I want to be financially independent.

That's it. No other plans.

That's it?

Really?

What about you,

next five years, or five days?

Just cooking you dinners until you move away,

or tell me to stop.

You don't want to live alone forever, do you?

Don't I?

You might...

you might meet the right...

You don't want that.

Don't tell me what I want.

I'm just...

not in that head space.

Well, you were once.

Maybe that's the problem.

That was, like, years ago.

Don't you just want to move on?

Hearts are such infuriating things, aren't they?

I love and accept myself.

Tonight will be a short, easy and fun shift.

I'll go home with at least 500.

I love and accept myself.

Tonight will be a short, easy and fun shift.

I will make at least 500.

One of your regulars was on the news.

Huh?

One of your regulars was on the news.

Oh, was he?

Yeah, hot suit guy.

- What happened? - I don't know.

Whatever.

No need to be nervous.

Ah, it's just the mix of sex and commerce that does it.

You get used to it.

- Allowed to smoke? - Hey.

Hi.

I'm Joe.

Angelique.

We work together.

Oh. What as?

Ah, horses.

He's a horse, I'm a stockbroker.

Ah, so you know all about money.

- Yeah, a little bit. - Mm.

I'm thinking of investing in some real estate.

Is that right?

Hello?

- You look nice. - Thanks.

You sleep okay?

Not really.

Keep thinking the cops are going to bash down the door.

Has Simon contacted you?

I don't think he's allowed to make any phone calls.

If they don't let you have a phone call, that's pretty serious.

Well, I'm sure he's allowed to call his lawyer.

Oh, my God, they've probably got him in isolation

with all the other rock spiders.

- He's not a paedophile! - How do you know, okay?

They can be really good at covering up.

Ahh!

Just don't say anything to Mum, okay?

What's this I hear about a kidnapping?

Hi, Mum.

It's nothing.

Your sister said the police were at your place.

A child went missing.

He was my neighbour.

Your neighbour kidnapped a child?

Yeah, we don't know anything yet.

It's a sick world.

- Men and children. Sick. - Ow!

Why did you say those things?

Well, what happened to innocent till proven guilty?

What's your relationship with this man?

Well, I...

- Don't you start. - Oh, my God!

She lives upstairs from him, Mum. All right? Relax!

- Are you ever alone with him? - Oh, come on!

Are you?

Don't you want to watch the game? We're winning.

- Stop trying to change the subject. - Mum, let it go, all right?

It's boring.

Angela, this is Bakatur.

He's working with your uncle.

Bakatur, this is my beautiful niece, Angela.

- Hello. - Hi.

Perhaps you two could, ah, talk?

I have a girlfriend.

Cup of coffee?

Yeah, sure.

Hi, Angela.

Um, I just need to get a few things for Simon,

if you have the key.

Oh, yeah, of course.

- Come in. - Thank you.

Thank you.

Ah, how's... how's Empson?

He's missing Simon, I think.

My kids are probably a poor substitute.

Are you okay?

The police want me to be a witness.

Well, yeah. They would.

What if they ask me in court about my job?

You know, my family think I work at the casino.

Well, you can't lie, can you?

I've been lying to my mum for years.

Have you seen Simon again?

Is he all right?

What, you haven't gone to see him yet?

Oh, he wouldn't want to talk to me.

I think he needs all the friends he can get at the moment.

Just tell me he's all right.

I can't really do that. He's not.

The police...

the police think he's dangerous.

But I said he wasn't. He's not.

- He's not dangerous. - You're right. He's not.

Do you have any idea why he took Sam?

I don't know.

I mean, you were spending a bit of time together.

He didn't say anything?

You're a psychiatrist. How come you didn't know?

Yeah.

I'll get those things.

But... you should go and see him, yeah?

If you feel up to it.

I'm sorry.

No, you're right, you're right.

Oh, I'm not going to be able to get up.

Good.

Mm, somebody's been working out.

You must get bored shitless.

I never find you boring, Joe.

I've got the same old sob story as everyone else.

I think it's good when people can talk

about their personal experiences.

Yeah, well, my wife and I still aren't talking.

And we never fuck.

Well, that's more common than you think.

She uses sex as a tool to manipulate me.

It's part of her personality, I guess.

It's what princesses do when they don't get what they want.

They play dirty.

How long's it been like that?

Feels like forever.

You don't deserve that.

We've been through so much shit together.

You'd think surviving all of that would make us stronger.

I wonder sometimes,

maybe she's seeing somebody else.

You think she's having an affair?

Well, some things don't add up, so I don't know.

If she is seeing someone...

it isn't making her happy.

So what can I do?

You give something your best shot...

it's still not good enough.

So why not go out there and find something else?

You're a great guy, good-looking.

You deserve the best.

She would take Sam with her.

I... I don't think she necessarily would.

I'd fucking kill her before I let her take him away from me.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. That's...

that's what you get when you encourage me to open up.

No.

No, no, don't be sorry.

I'm glad we can talk.

Hello?

We appreciate you coming back in, Ms Erbakan.

We just have a few questions.

More questions?

Have you got my pen?

We shouldn't keep you too much longer.

Do I need a lawyer?

Do you have a lawyer?

You've done nothing wrong.

It's all procedural... crossed Ts, etc.

Angela...

do you agree that you know Simon Heywood?

- Yes. - What is your relationship with him?

It's important to tell the truth, Angela.

It's why we're all here.

Did Mr Heywood give you some advanced warning of the abduction?

What do you mean?

Was this something you'd planned together?

I called the police.

- Perhaps things got out of hand. - No.

We're just trying to get a clearer picture.

Yeah, I appreciate that, but I've...

I've told you everything I know.

Are you aware that Mr Heywood

was involved with a previous child abduction?

Yes.

But I know he was cleared for that.

Did you ever get the feeling that Mr Heywood was gay?

No.

- You felt he was attracted to women? - Of course.

Did you ever see him with any women?

Did he ever talk about them?

You don't have to see someone with a woman

to know they're not gay.

According to you, he, er...

likes to spend time alone.

And he's not in a romantic relationship,

that you're aware of,

with a man or a woman.

Now, he's been involved with two cases of child abduction.

Is he interested in children?

Simon is not a...

a paedophile.

How can you be sure?

Because he's my boyfriend.

I'm putting them all in a playlist for you.

You have to listen to it, okay?

You'll like it.

Angela?

Angela.

You must know how I feel about you.

And I think you're one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen.

Now put some clothes on.

How long has Mr Heywood been your boyfriend?

A year.

And how much time would you say that you spend together

over the course of a week.

We're often together.

I often spend the night at his house.

We hang out there, but I've got my own place.

Is he aware of what you do for employment?

Some girls try to keep it from their boyfriends.

Simon knows what I do.

Big of him.

Would you say that your relationship with Mr Heywood

was monogamous on his part?

Of course.

So you don't believe

that Mr Heywood and Mrs Marin were in a relationship?

Well, not that I know of.

Did Mr Heywood make any contact with Mrs Marin

during the time that you saw him with Sam

on the night of the abduction?

I didn't see Simon make contact with anybody.

So it's your belief that you and Mr Heywood

- were in an exclusive relationship. - Yes.

And Mr Heywood and Mrs Marin

- were not in a relationship? - No.

Are you prepared to testify that you and Mr Heywood

were in a romantic relationship, Ms Erbakan?

Yes.

Good girl.

How about a latte?

Think we could all use one.

Detective Threlfall will just go and print up the statement

for you to sign.

Might even offer to pay for the coffees while he's at it.

10 points for trying.

Here you go. Just sign here.

Right here will be fine.

If you want to have another little read, that's...

Are you going to have to get up in court?

I think so.

They're going to know you were lying.

Oh, Simon's not going to correct them if it's helping the case.

What do you think Mum's going to say?

You tell her you hardly know the guy,

then you get up in court and say you're dating.

- She won't find out. - Yeah, right.

Maybe she'll understand.

She might not even care that your boyfriend's not Muslim

when she finds out he's a paedophile.

Can you stop calling him that?

One kid, you're cleared, bit unfortunate.

- Two kids... - He didn't do anything!

He took someone's child! The guy's a sicko!

He's not coping. He's not coping.

Other people go to a shrink when they're not coping.

He does go to a shrink.

Hey, listen,

just promise me you won't go and see him, all right?

Mum, can I have an ice-cream?

Thanks, Angela.

Big tipper at the casino.

I've been waiting for four hours.

I came in yesterday, I've come in today.

Please let me see him. Heywood. Simon Heywood.

What's your name?

Angela Erbakan. I've signed in.

- Everything's done. - He's not here.

What do you mean, he's not here? Where is he? This is a prison.

- He's in the hospital. - In hospital?

What, is he hurt?

Listen, I'm his girlfriend.

- I'm sorry, I'm his girlfriend. - Angela.

- We're practically... Oh, thank God. - Something wrong?

Well, I think something's happened to him.

- What's wrong? - Listen, I... It's all my fault.

Why is it your fault?

Listen, can we get out of here? Please?

- I messed everything up. - It's all right.

I've just fucked everything up.

No, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay.

You know, I didn't mean to. I just thought he...

It's okay.

Take your time. It's all right.

I was in love with Simon.

And... and...

and I just wanted him to be in love with me.

I see.

You're pining for someone you don't even know anymore.

We know each other.

You know a dream.

Anna's not the same person she was.

She's... she's manipulative.

Did Joe tell you that?

Yes, she uses... she uses sex as a game

and then she tortures him to get her own way.

He's worried she's having an affair.

Is she?

Does it matter?

He's losing sleep over it.

If he thinks Anna's cheating on him, why doesn't he just leave her?

I don't know! Maybe because he's a good man.

Oh, you know what? Maybe he will leave her.

Maybe she'll... she'll run off with someone else.

Who cares?

Angela, just wait.

Will you wait for a second?

What else did he say?

Oh, does it matter?

He knows her.

He sees what she really is.

Can't you see that?

She doesn't give a shit about you

or anybody but herself.

You know, when I told him things about Joe, he...

he kind of got obsessed.

- What, with Joe? - No, no.

No, no, no, with Anna, their marriage.

Not that he hadn't been already, but it kind of got worse.

I think he started following her.

Oh, Simon, what happened to you?

Nothing.

You're soaking. You're soaking wet. Where have you been?

- Simon? - Drop it. I need to have a shower.

I thought you were going to walk me to work.

I haven't seen you all day.

Why don't you come to mine and I can make you a cup of tea?

- This isn't your fault, Angela. - Yeah, but I could have...

I couldn't help him. Simon's unwell, you know?

He didn't know what he was doing when he took Sam, and...

I didn't know what I was doing.

I was trying to help, but instead I did the exact fucking opposite.

In what way do you think he was unwell?

He's not right.

People...

people process trauma in very different ways

and sometimes it manifests itself in unusual behaviour.

Then the police started asking if he was a...

if he was a paedophile.

- Yeah. - If he was... if he was gay.

So I said that...

I said that I was his girlfriend.

What?

You lied to them?

Well, yeah, to protect... protect him.

But now they've called me in as a witness,

so everything's going to come undone.

Angela...

Simon's defence is going to argue

that he was seeing Anna

and that maybe she gave him permission to pick up Sam.

So if you've told the police that you're in a relationship with him,

then you've severely weakened his case.

No, I don't understand. What is that...?

You've played into their hands.

- You want to change your statement? - Yes.

Do you realise if you change your original statement

you could be charged with perjury?

And do you want to tell us why you want to change your statement?

I was lying.

I made it up.

Simon and I weren't lovers.

What's the truth now?

Can I please change my statement?

Simon Heywood was in love with Anna Marin, not me.

I told you he was my boyfriend 'cause I was...

well, I was jealous.

He rejected me and I was angry.

So you've known Simon Heywood for about a year?

Yeah.

And you believe that he and Mrs Marin...

have had an intimate relationship?

I... I know he loved her.

Have you ever met Mrs Marin?

No.

But you know Joe Marin.

How do you know Joe Marin?

He's one of my clients.

- Where you work? Cavendish House. - Yes.

Pretty enticing job for a girl in her 20s, is it? Hooking?

- It's great. - Making money hand over fist.

How does your family feel about your employment, Angela?

I'd have thought even the more modern Turkish mothers

might have trouble with their eldest daughter

choosing a career in sex work.

What happened with Simon has nothing to do with my job.

Well, who knows?

In a desperate situation,

it just makes sense to start trying to think of clever ways

to make extra money and then one night, in walks Joe Marin.

That's not true.

You and Simon Heywood decided to extort Joe Marin

and then at the last minute,

you got cold feet and called the cops.

That's completely false.

Well, who knows?

I mean, you keep changing your mind so much.

We want to be friends with you, Angela,

but we can't if you're not going to help us.

I'm sorry. I can't help you.

I would think very carefully

about changing your original statement, Angela.

Because you don't make changes like this

without there being serious consequences.

I'm not lying anymore.

I'm going to tell the truth.

Just so that I can understand, call it for my own benefit...

you're happy to run the risk of being charged with perjury?

Yes.

Detective, make a note of Ms Erbakan's new statement

and get her to have a quick look at it before she signs,

in case she wants to... change her mind again.

Excuse me, ladies.

Angela, could I have a word?

Oh, no, no, no, this has all been a massive misunderstanding.

Simon's going to be...

It's all going to be fine.

It's not that I don't sympathise,

but discretion is a priority here...

and the police were round.

I need this job, Moira.

- I know, love. - Please!

It's just awful, isn't it?

I won't be able to pay my rent.

I wish I could help.

They've cut my hours at the casino.

So why don't you come back here?

Oh, no, Mum, don't.

You look so tired.

And your sister might need some help with Mahir.

I thought you liked helping out.

I can't do everything.

Little boys take up too much time.

Well, I can come and babysit after work.

What's more important to you?

Your family or a casino?

I'm not going to be at the casino forever.

That filthy neighbour of yours. Still in jail?

He hasn't gone to trial yet.

Should lock him up and throw away the key.

Cheers, Mum, that's... that's really good.

I'll pass that on.

Listen.

You were such a good student.

Stop the path you're on, come home and reassess.

You don't need the casino.

You could study, do anything.

Maybe life's telling you to take a chance now.

Don't ignore it.

It's me.

Ange!

Coming.

- I'm so sorry, can you take him? - Yeah.

- He's got a fever. I've got work. - Yeah, come here, come here, bebe.

He was throwing up about an hour ago, but I think it's stopped now.

I'm so sorry.

Mum said she was going to take him,

but then she had some morning tea shit on.

Yeah, it's fine, it's fine.

You all right?

Are you okay? You look weird.

Yeah, I'm fine.

Okay, he can have one dose now,

and another after he's had his lunch.

And um...

I know this is awkward, but um...

Mum's been hassling me for the car rego...

Oh, yeah, of course. Sorry.

Thank you so much.

Hello?

Yeah, this is her.

Sorry, who is this?

That's none of your business.

Who was that?

Ah, just some...

just some journalist.

About the kidnapping?

Sort of.

Gege, what is it?

The police, um...

the police told them about my job.

I don't work at the casino.

I know.

- I'm so sorry. - No.

Oh, God.

Don't.

Come on. Come on.

He'll see you.

I, um...

I... I came...

I came to see you.

- They didn't tell me. - I...

I thought you were angry at me.

You did what you had to do.

This is all my fault.

Please, don't tell me you actually think that.

I shouldn't have told you things about Joe.

I already knew Anna was unhappy.

I knew the moment I saw her again.

- I called the police. - It's done, Angela.

Stop beating yourself up.

I made a mistake.

People get punished for mistakes.

It's fair.

The police told the press...

about my job.

Have you...

have you heard from your mum?

No, not yet.

I'm so sorry.

Hi.

Why are they telling lies about you?

Mum!

That man has told lies.

And the police are corrupt.

- We're going to sue. - You can't sue the police.

We can sue the press. The newspaper.

I spoke to my brother and he's going to get us a lawyer.

Angela. Angela...

you're a good girl.

We won't let them do this to you.

- Can these go in the dishwasher? - Not those ones.

Mum.

- Mum. - Mm?

What... what they said in the papers...

it's true.

And I'm in a lot of trouble.

No.

No.

Mum, I'm so sorry.

I can go. I can go.

Unless you want me to stay.

I want you to go!

Go.

Go now.

You know, the daughter you knew yesterday...

it's still me.

I'm... I'm still...

Gege!

Fuck.

- Gege, this is insane. - I know, I know. I'm so sorry.

No, no, no, no, I'll talk to her.

Just bring little Mahir over to visit.

Of course.

And... and... and text me.

Okay.

- I got to... - Yeah, I know, I know. Go.

Listen, you know I'm here for you, okay?

Thanks, D.

Okay.

I love you.

Thank God.

Hello?

Hey, it's Moira.

- You all right? - Not really.

You poor thing. Such a rough trot.

Yeah.

Well, I'm calling with good news.

I can help you out with work.

Oh, great.

It's not in here, unfortunately,

but we can start putting you on the home-visits roster

if you're okay to work remotely?

Yeah, that... that's great. Thanks heaps.

Well, the client asked for you directly,

but he is insisting on home visits.

Hi.

Probably don't remember me, do you?

I have a feeling we can help each other.

Looks like there may have been an accomplice.

A neighbour.

A woman.

Well done, boys. Awfully well done.

So, what, we don't have to go to the team-building retreat?

When I've spent eight grand a head on my future leaders, you're going.

- Joe. - Yeah?

You need to call Donald Sheere.

He called before. It's urgent.

I don't exactly have a phone right now, do I?

Right, now you get me a phone.

- Me? - Yeah, you.

You get the phone, I make the call.

Climber ascending.

- Falling! - No!

Come in.

I think we can help each other out.

Joe knows more than what he's letting on.

At first, I thought that you and Joe were working as a team.

- What? - But now I know that's not the truth.

I think Simon is in an awful lot of trouble

for something that is not his fault.

He wants money.

Who does?

$15,000 to pay for protection.
