Mirror, mirror on the wall,

who is the fairest,
the most beloved of all?

One night the Queen snapped.

The Bishop wants our home
as a hotel for rich people.

If money is the only way, then so be it.

The search has been called off.

They are already organising
a memorial for him.

Ignatius?

This is not Ignatius. Frankie!

Did you say Frankie?

What have you done?

(GROWLING)

No!

Beast! I won't let you hurt her
like you hurt me.

(GROWLING)

No!

What have you done to her?

I didn't do anything. She did it to herself.

Her name is Frankie Jones, Bob.

If there is a problem, I need it to go away.

I know how much you
want to call your sister.

You don't have long.

Did you hurt him, Frankie?

Get out.

The nuns...

What did Frankie say?

The rules of your trust are very specific.

I will meet with you
if that's what it takes.

But just you, no-one else.

Portaross. Tomorrow.

But what if they come back?

I think that we can risk one day
to save our home.

This is a message for the bishop.

I'm at the St Agnes monastery.

I've been held captive by three nuns.
The nuns...

The hotel people,
they can't go to the island now.

Tomorrow.

We scheduled the tour for tomorrow.

People are here to pay their respects
to your brother, Ignatius.

Let's not keep them waiting.

Margarita, can today be Wreath Day?

Maybe.

Please, Margarita.

We need to make our Advent wreaths.
Rose candles too.

Stop hounding, Carla.

I haven't decided on the day yet.

Sister Margarita,

as it's Advent and a time for penance,

I'd like to apologise
for what happened in my cell.

I know it hasn't been easy having me here

and I don't presume to know your experience
of men outside these walls,

but we men, we're not all bad.

Peace be with you, sister.

(QUIET MUSIC)

It's not Wreath Day, Carla.

It's Dyeing Day.

Today is Dyeing Day.

(CHILLING MUSIC)

What colours would you like, father?

For what?

Your robes.

It's beautiful.

I thought you were making me a shroud.
For dying day.

Wouldn't waste good wool on the dead.

There is only one panel left ― yours.

The end of your story.

What colours we don't already have
I can make, so choose.

(WATER LAPS ON SHORE)

(BIRDS CAW)

(BELL TINKLES)

I have a room booked in my name.

Patricia Stanford.

Miss Stanford.

We've been expecting you.

Mr Colquin has everything prepared
for your arrival.

NEWSREADER: ...the number of allegations

of child sexual abuse against
the Catholic Church continues to grow

as church officials are being accused
of a widespread cover-up.

(CHURCH BELL TOLLS)

Today you've heard a lot about Ignatius
the man, the priest,

and all his achievements.

I didn't know that man.

All I can tell you about is the boy.

My little brother.

My Ignatius.

Right from the start he was different.

You see, Ignatius had a gift.

As a child he saw things,

colours in numbers and in music.

So the number one was a sky blue.

Two, scarlet.

And music was a myriad of colours,
ripples in the air that only he could see.

But for the kids at school and the nuns,

and everyone else,

it was a gift that had to be
beaten out of him.

(SHEEP BLEAT)

FRANKIE: I tried to protect Ignatius
as best I could,

but by 13, my parents decided
a Catholic boarding school

was the answer to fixing
my brother's problem.

After that I saw him less and less.

I remember the day he graduated.
I didn't recognise him.

He told me proudly
that he had been cured of his affliction...

by God.

And he didn't want to be reminded
of his shameful past,

especially not by me.

You're an alchemist, Margarita.

FRANKIE: When my youngest, Nat,
turned four,

he said to me, "One is white.
Two is Caterpillar Green."

My Nat has synaesthesia too.

And when I realised, I called Ignatius

and I just started rambling about
how Nat was just like him

with his colours.

And I heard Ignatius crying.

And he promised me that he would come
and visit and finally meet my precious boys.

(SOULFUL MUSIC)

I never did see my Ignatius again.

(BELL TOLLS)

Thank you for all your help
and your kindness.

You're welcome.

We can wait for you, to go to the wake.

Yeah, I'd like that.

Malachi.

The other priest that was here before, Bob,
where is he?

He had some urgent business to attend to.

Right.

Well you tell him I'd like
some questions answered, in person.

Of course. I'll tell him.

Gentlemen, there's been a change of plan.

Some bad weather is on its way
so we'll reschedule the tour to tomorrow.

This way you'll see our monastery
in its best light.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

(CONVERSATION IN

Patricia?

My darling girl.

(CAMERA SHUTTERS CLICK)

(EERIE MUSIC)

Once upon a time a king and queen
were desperate for a child...

but to no avail.

The queen prayed and prayed to God
for a miracle

until one morning they awoke

to find a tiny new-born
lying in a crib of roses

beside their bed.

They named the little foundling girl,
Briar Rose.

Her christening was a grand affair

and the king and queen invited
12 wise women from across the land

to bestow their gifts
upon their little daughter.

One wise woman offered her wisdom,
another kindness.

There was joy, love, strength.

So many gifts bestowed upon her.

But a thirteenth wise woman had been
left off the invitation list

and the old crone arrived
to curse Briar Rose,

saying that on her thirteenth birthday

Briar Rose would prick her finger
on a needle and die.

Now the king and queen were so horrified
they banned all needles from the kingdom

and from then on they kept Briar Rose
within the confines of their walled palace,

to keep her safe.

And Briar Rose grew up
within those walls,

loved and happy.

Until the morning of
her thirteenth birthday.

Briar Rose awoke with a strange
restlessness inside of her.

She began to walk the corridors

until she found herself
in a part of the palace

she'd never seen before.

A door beckoned to her,
a strange light emanating from within.

And as she crossed the threshold
to the door...

Briar Rose began to bleed from a wound
that could not be seen.

And she looked up to find
the ancient crone waiting for her.

And the wise old woman

explained the mystery of the body

that bleeds every month
but does not die,

instead growing in wisdom.

And the child Briar Rose died that day.

And was reborn a woman.

(SOUND OF BRANCHES BREAKING)

(EERIE MUSIC)

(BIRDS CAW)

(SHEEP BLEAT)

(OMINOUS MUSIC)

After your disappearance, the family spent
a lot of time and money trying to find you.

They were also subjected to
a harrowing police investigation

into Jeremiah Smith's death,
but also yours,

as many in the public believed
you'd been murdered on the same night

as part of some sort of grand cover-up.

Your body apparently buried
somewhere on our estate.

The newspapers dragged our entire
family down into the gutter.

Which brings us to your inheritance.

After 10 years with no word from you
and no claim on your estate,

in accordance with the rules
of your father's will,

your inheritance was
returned to the family trust.

Surely now I'm back it will revert to me.

Your right to make a claim has lapsed
and now skips a generation.

It can only go to your offspring.

That's ridiculous!

It's my rightful inheritance.

And in a court of law you could challenge
that ruling and most likely win.

But all that will take time and money.

However, I am willing to release the funds
you need for your purchase, today...

if you agree to one simple condition.

And that would be?

I want the Stanford family name
restored to its former glory.

So for your money you will appear
at a press conference this afternoon,

to read a prepared statement
announcing your return from the dead

and exonerating the Stanford family
of any wrongdoing.

At which point you will be free to return to
your relative anonymity

as a Sister of St Agnes.

So I am to exonerate you for the murder
of Jeremiah, too.

All I did that night was send Arthur to
bring you home.

You sent him to kill Jeremiah.

Don't be ridiculous!
Arthur only meant to scare him off.

I was trying to protect you.

You were trying to protect
your precious Stanford name

from the scandal that your only daughter
was in love with a black man.

And that beautiful man,

he was beaten to death
right in front of me.

I can't do this.

Then your mother's offer
will be rescinded

and the rules of your inheritance
will stand.

So unless you can
produce a blood heir...

(OMINOUS MUSIC)

(TAP SQUEAKS ON, WATER FLOWS)

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACH)

(TAP SQUEAKS SHUT)

(BUCKET CLATTERS TO THE GROUND)

All done.

Just in time for prayers.

Shh.

What is it?

(GROWLING)

It's alright, Sister Margarita.

(GROWLING)

This is Father Bob.

He means you no harm.

Nun number two.

Margarita.

Where on earth did they find you?

Carla!

Don't be frightened. Father Bob is a friend
of Ignatius, isn't that right?

You said in your call that there
were three nuns holding you captive.

Where is the third?

I think a royal blue would be
a better choice

for your return from the dead.

These should do nicely too.

They're Stanford diamonds.

There.

Hurry along now,
we don't have much time.

The press are gathering.

I'll be right next door. If you need me.

(DOOR OPENS)

(THE PRESS CHATTER OUTSIDE
THE ROOM)

(DOOR SHUTS)

(EXHALES)

If I could produce an heir,
how would it work?

COLQUIN: You'd have to prove it.

A simple DNA test would suffice.

Then your heir would be accorded
all the privileges

of the Stanford name - the money,

land, the title,
as well as your inheritance.

Thank you.

(GENTLE MUSIC)

I'm sure once the bishop has been made
fully aware of the situation...

He is fully aware, Ignatius.

These women have to
leave with you today.

The sisters of St Agnes are an enclosed
order. You'd be asking them to betray...

The sisters of St Agnes don't exist!

Who's to say who these women really are?

Or how they came to be here.

These women are the Sisters of St Agnes!
They are not nuns!

What nun would hold a priest captive
and inflict such horrors upon him?

I mean, look at yourself, man.

(MARGARITA PRAYS)

And now you tell me one so-called nun has
gone to the mainland to buy the place?

I know what you're trying to do.

All we really know for certain

is that these women are trespassing
on valuable church property

and that they and their filthy animals
need to be removed.

(POWERFUL MUSIC)

(EXHALES)

(SHEEP BLEAT)

No.

No, I can truly attest these women are
the Sisters of St Agnes

and they will not be removed.

(STRIDENT MUSIC)

Very well then.

(SIGHS)

(SHEEP BLEAT)

(DOOR BANGS SHUT)

Patricia?

Are you ready?

"Dear mother, I came here
because I thought

"I could save my sisters and our home
with money.

"But it turns out the cost of that money,

"whether it be my silence or my heir,

"is one that I am not prepared to pay.

"I'm sorry, you'll have to
face the press alone.

"And what you say will be your choice,
your story...

"But I leave behind this angel, Carla,
to watch over you.

"It's the only part of my daughter
I am willing to let the Stanfords have."

(BURST OF JARRING MUSIC)

(HEARS MARGARITA YELLING 'NO!')

(PANTS IN ANXIETY)

Sister!

I can take you across.

Anything else
you'd like to take with you?

No.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry that I didn't get a chance
to finish my robes,

finish my story.

There's a boat waiting.

It's a bit of a walk
but I'm sure we'll manage.

(SHEEP BLEAT)

Sister Margarita, Sister Carla.

(THUD)

Eugh!
No!

The place must be cleared
one way or another.

(SCREAMS)

We have to get them down to the boat.

Let her go!

(THUMP)

Eugh!

IGNATIUS: Run! Go!

Have you gone mad?

(SMACK)
No!

I guess there's no point in bringing you
back from the dead after all.

(THUMP)

You'll be fine.

Hurry.

Alright, shh. Go.

Right. Now you.
No!

Shh.
No. I want to help you.

You need to stay hidden.
No!

Look at me.

You'll need to stay hidden
until I come back for you.

Promise me.

Yes.

Alright. I will come back for you.

(SOBS)
I will come back for you.

Alright, go.

for I have failed you.

Against you have I sinned
and done what is evil in your sight.

You are right in your verdict
and justified when you judge me.

(SOBS)

I am dirty and I am ashamed.

I am not worthy of your love
nor the gift of this life.

No.

I said no!

Let us be glad and rejoice in it.

Accept this my sacrifice, holy mother.

Accept this broken spirit,
my broken and contrite heart.

I pray that you will not despise me.

Have mercy on me, Mother.

Have mercy on me.

Put away the evil of your doings
from before mine eyes.

Cease to do evil.

Learn to do good.

Though your sins be as scarlet,

they shall be as white as snow.

Though they be as red as crimson,

they shall be as wool.

But I saw them.

I saw them engulfed in the flames.

Your hands are full of blood.

Wash you, make you clean.

Put away the evil of your doings
from before mine eyes.

Cease to do evil.

Learn to do good.

(LIGHT MUSIC)

You must look upon this miracle, sister.

Do not be frightened.

Sister Margarita.

Look.

I've been healed.

Holy Mother...

blessed be you.

You have saved a sinner
and made me whole again.

You raised me up, Margarita,
so that I might live to recount your deeds.

And I will go forth to proclaim your name.

(POIGNANT MUSIC)

(STIRRING MUSIC)

IPHIGENIA (VOICEOVER):
Every St Agnes novice

has made a special garment
for her robing day,

a garment with her own hair knitted into it.

To join her to us.

Each knitted garment tells
a story bright with meaning

and holds the cables and ribs
of the knitters' own lives.

It celebrates the inventiveness
of imagination

and the power of our stories to heal
and to change lives.

Only when the garment is finished,
her story told,

is the novice ready to be
a sister of St Agnes.

MARGARITA: What do you ask for?

IGNATIUS: The mercy of God
and the grace of the holy habit.

CARLA: Do you ask it
with your whole heart?

I do.

May God grant you perseverance,
my daughter.

(CHUCKLES)

This is as far as I go.

Oh! Get up.

You'll ruin your new robes
before you're even home.

(SHEEP BLEAT)

Once I go back, there'll be police inquiries

and emissaries from the Pope
to verify the miracle.

Do you think the bishop will allow
any of it?

Is that...?

It's Father Bob's with all his messages
to and from the Bishop.

So yes, I think he'll be a great advocate.

A seraph!

Come with me.

(SEAGULLS CAW)

(PHONE BEEPS)

(GIVES A SMALL LAUGH)

Is that him?

ANNOUNCER: Welcome to Portaross,
your gateway to the St Agnes monastery.

An enclosed order, the sisters of St Agnes

now allow visitors once a year to
commemorate Sister Margarita's miracle.

Tours leave every hour.
Please queue in an orderly fashion.

(BABY GURGLES)

A story, hmm?

Your turn, Iphigenia.

Once upon a time there were three sisters

who lived in a big house high on a hill.

And they were happy and content

until one day...
