That's a foot in a pizza bag. Let's see if we can find the rest of this body.

Dismembering a body by hand is hard work. It takes time, not to mention the mess.

You can't tell anyone I was with you. No more messages.

- I thought you lost your phone. - Just make sure you lose my number.

Clarissa: If these body parts are from the same body, what you're looking at

is an irezumi bodysuit.

Taramelli: So no identifiable DNA, but we do have the tattoos.

Which we can show to the various tattooists in Brighton.

- Does this tattooist have a name? - This is his unique signature.

The carving butterfly.

- Is that the head? - Jack: Left arm. It's an irezumi.

But we already have a left arm.

Excuse me?

He's taking the moped!

Taramelli: A second dismembered body.

What fun.

Sir...

Not the yakuza gangster I was expecting.

Akito emon?

Police!

Siren wails

akito emon, I am arresting you on suspicion of murder.

Murder?

You do not have to say anything, but anything you do say...

- Morning. - Morning.

This place is so quiet when no-one else is here.

What's up?

Clarissa?

I couldn't sleep.

There's something about this case that's...

Like a Jigsaw without a picture.

And we won't know what it is until we find the final piece,

which is not unlike this little lot.

But I've located two serial numbers,

so we should be able to identify the vehicles involved in the accident.

- Morning. - Morning.

Sorry I'm late. It's usually the trains,

- but this morning, we finally caught up with the moped driver. - Did you find the moped?

No, just the driver. A young woman who works for the pizza restaurant.

You think she's involved with the two murders?

Innocent people don't run.

As you can see, the body's been extensively disrupted.

It's been decapitated,

and all four limbs removed,

possibly as a result of falling into the recycling mechanism,

could have happened earlier, or a combination of both.

I'll examine each body part to determine exactly... how it was amputated.

Poor man.

Who could do such a thing?

There's bruising to the chest and lacerations to the face.

They both exhibit signs of vital reactions.

That means this man suffered a number of serious injuries before he died,

including what appears to be a sharp-force wound to his abdomen.

There's a stab wound, orientated transversely,

measuring 4cm long, with the edges opposed.

It penetrates the skin and enters deeply into the peritoneal cavity.

Can you say if it's the same knife that killed the first man?

It's possible, but hard to say unless we find the knife.

- A koi swimming up a current of water. - Like the first body.

What about the others?

They appear to be from different parts of the world.

I'll send the images to heisuke.

The tattoos on the left leg, left arm and shoulder have been torn,

in some cases partially destroyed,

either by the dismembering or the recycling process.

I'm hoping, as the search continues, more parts will turn up

- and we can complete the picture. - His body's like a travelogue.

This man travels all over the world

and ends up in a recycling bin in a back street in Brighton.

- Nine o'clock. - Ok.

This is akito's room?

You will see she has got something of a shrine to her family.

She wants to be a surgeon, apparently.

What is it?

Pizza bags.

- He sighs - let's see.

Dirty washing.

One for colours, one for whites.

Piracetam, modafinil.

She's got attention deficit disorder?

Possibly, but judging by the quantity,

I'd say it was more likely she was selling them on.

Keeps you awake, so you can study longer.

I don't think two men have been brutally murdered and cut up

for the sake of some students thinking they'll get better exam results.

- We'll get some dogs in. - Right.

A compass, a Yale key and an ignition key on a fob.

Can you find out where it might have come from?

I'll try. It should tell us what make of vehicle at least.

�6.40 in coins

and a very bloody �20 note.

- Any credit cards? A wallet? - Not yet.

Chances are they fell out in the bin or the recycling centre

or during the fight that put him there.

Anything else on the clothing?

Apart from a lot of blood...

There are these spatters of blood at the top of the shirt.

Won't they have come from the man himself?

Possibly.

The pattern, though, suggests blood coming from another source.

You mean from the person or people who attacked him?

Just got to swab your hand.

May I?

Is that a cigarette burn?

You told us you were attacked in Dover street at around 7pm.

He threw me to the ground. I was in shock.

Is that how you got those bruises?

They look more recent to me.

Has someone been hurting you, akito?

My crash helmet has got a camera on it. That will prove that I'm not lying.

And where might this crash helmet be, akito?

The man took it with the bike.

Could this alleged incident have happened in church street?

No. I didn't go to church street that night.

Both speak in Japanese

we found these under your bed, akito.

16 packs of modafinil,

21 packs of piracetam.

I give them to my friends.

Quicke: And where do you get them from?

I buy them from someone, ok? I don't know their name.

We found these at the rubbish dump.

Just like the ones we found under your bed.

- I deliver pizzas for this restaurant. - The pizza bag

had a man's dismembered foot in it. Both the bag and the pizza box

have your fingerprints on them, akito.

Akito...

..We want to help you.

We'll believe everything you say when you start

telling us what really happened.

If I tell you the truth, detective, they will kill me.

Akito is claiming that her bike was stolen at around 7pm

on that Thursday night in Dover street.

But look at this...

Taken at 8.46.

She clearly didn't clock the cctv camera

on the neighbouring house she was delivering to.

Was she mistaken about the time, or is she lying?

Well, the restaurant will have a record of deliveries she made

- and what time she made them, won't they? - True.

- Pig bones! - You say the nicest things, Thomas.

Find out if the saw Jack found was used to dismember

- both those bodies. - They're in the cold store.

That saw has been examined for all trace evidence, hasn't it?

And we're awaiting the results...

- That's right. - Thank you.

- Phone vibrates - it's Matt!

Do you want to...?

No. It's fine. I'll...

You know you can talk to me. To any of us.

I know, I know.

You seem a little preoccupied.

Everything's fine.

Really?

I just... thought I was pregnant...

And I'm not.

And Matt doesn't know.

It's a conversation we need to have face to face.

Yeah.

Quicke: Yes. Yes, I can.

See you shortly.

That was Andrew Dewey. He wants to speak to me.

Said it was urgent.

Organise a search of Stephen's house, get some DNA. And Andrew's.

Both had access to apartment 3.

Let akito stew for a bit. She might talk then.

You really think akito killed those two men?

Chopped them up?

People are capable of anything.

The broken plastic you found in church street...

Got a match?

The front light and indicator belong to a peugeot moped.

The same model akito was riding that night.

And what did it collide with?

It was a Ford Van.

Pre 2008.

There was a man. He came in looking for Stephen.

He said he'd called but got no answer, so he came here.

He seemed really upset, and yesterday, when you asked if Stephen had a tattoo,

I remembered the man had one on his arm.

- What kind of tattoo? - It looked like a fish.

Just here. Could it have been... Japanese?

Like this one?

- Yeah, that's it. Is that the dead man? - Could you describe him?

Taller than me. Broader. Looked like he worked out.

Do men often come in here looking for Stephen?

Stephen's not like me.

He's older, for a start. He still likes the scene.

- He's always swiping right. - How does that make you feel?

I knew what he was like when I met him, but meeting randoms...

I've been attacked before,

and last year, someone was nearly killed.

- And yet Stephen still does it? - I don't know.

We've not been together long, and he's so secretive.

- Never tells me anything. - That can't be easy.

I found this.

Stephen sometimes lets people rent the holiday apartments

without telling the owners. The business isn't doing too well.

- Stephen sublets the flats for cash? - Yeah.

And I found this for last week.

Mk. Apartment 3.

Look, I don't want to get Stephen in trouble.

- Do you know who mk is? - No.

Sir, mk was booked into apartment 3 last Thursday.

Thanks for this.

- You lied to me. - No. I'm not police.

We just need to know if you recognise any of these tattoos.

Bex, please...

It's mk.

It's the Phoenix.

It was the first one he had done.

I'm sorry I misled you, bex. It wasn't my intention.

We believe that mk's been murdered,

and we need you to help us with the investigation.

I've known mk since we were kids.

He was adopted.

I don't know what his real parents ever did to him but...

Sometimes you could really see the little boy reaching out.

He ran away all the time.

And when he was younger, of course, he was always brought back, but then...

Is that when he got into drugs?

It was like he was trying to erase everything.

His past, his memories.

He would just... disappear.

One night, he died.

His heart stopped beating in the back of a taxi.

The hospital managed to bring him back.

Hence the Phoenix.

He said it was like he'd been given a second chance,

which is why he wanted that tattoo.

And it's how he met an irezumi master

who inspired him to change his life.

Devote it to irezumi.

He's always been an amazing artist.

Do you know who this man might be?

Yeah. Mk went to college with him.

Steve something.

- You sure? - Yeah. I never liked him.

When mk came to Brighton, he used to stay with him.

Poppers, ketamine, coke.

Has he got something to do with mk's murder?

We don't know.

Do you have any idea where we might find him?

I haven't seen him for years.

Is this mk?

Yeah.

He was here a couple of weeks ago working on an irezumi.

If you could get us some names and contact details for anyone he knew...

Clients, people from his past.

People like Stephen, who had history with him.

- Blood pressure? - 150 over 90.

- Did dermatology come and see her? - We're waiting on the results.

We need another access line.

Let's get some fluid running quickly.

I've spoken to your parents, akito.

No, I told you...

They were surprised you'd been delivering pizzas

and that you'd got yourself involved in selling drugs.

I lost all the money they gave me for college.

Ok? Gambling.

I had no choice.

Can you describe the man who attacked you?

I don't know. It was dark.

He pushed me down to the ground,

and then I ran.

I saw him ride away,

he had my crash helmet on.

He was wearing shorts.

- Shorts? - Yes. I... I think so.

We're investigating a double murder.

- She speaks in Japanese - in english!

I did not murder anyone.

Please believe me.

What really happened?

Last Thursday night,

I went down to the Marina.

The man I buy the prescription drugs from,

he called me to come down.

He had a package for me.

I parked my moped so the cameras could not see me

and I went to the boat,

but when I got back to my bike, the man attacked me.

He took my bike, the helmet, the package...

I thought you were going to tell us the truth, akito.

She speaks in Japanese

knock on door

sir, you need to see this.

Detective sergeant Holden has come in.

Interview stopped at 14.03.

The remains of a sea view pizza crash helmet...

With camera, though I'm not sure

- you'll get any images from it. - No.

Max might be able to.

- Good idea. - All right.

Have you not done it yet?

Patience is a virtue, my love.

It's corrupt.

Great.

Hang on. Hold on!

Look, there's some fragments of photos, videos...

Ok... GPS metadata.

That's akito's moped at the Marina.

Jack...

Jack? Clarissa?

On the cctv images, akito is carrying the pizza box away from the boat.

And from the clips we've salvaged from the helmet cam,

she hides her bike by the dry dock.

Ok, thanks.

This is where akito parked her moped,

away from cctv cameras.

Now look at this.

It's from the camera on akito's crash helmet.

Turns out she was telling the truth.

From prescription drugs to cocaine?

Cocaine that was then stolen.

Could that have been the drug dealers attacking her?

According to Clarissa, on the cctv, no-one comes out of the boat

to follow akito, but watch this.

He's running up here towards akito.

So, who is that?

The last signal taken from Stephen's phone was from here in the Marina,

just minutes before akito was attacked.

Blade rasps

that noise goes right through the building.

Ok, so there's no DNA or trace evidence on the saw, but...

Judging by these kerf marks,

either this saw or a saw exactly like it was used

to dismember mk's body.

Now, the second body, as far as I can tell,

was dismembered both by the lorry that took it to the recycling centre

and the machinery at the centre itself.

Lab's confirmed that both men's DNA is on the knife.

So, what have we got? Two men stabbed by exactly same knife,

dumped into bins 50 metres apart in the same street.

Well, we also have a possible killer.

The blood spatters on the second man's shirt -

they belong to Stephen Fraser.

Was this the man who came into the office

- looking for Stephen? - Yes. Have you found him?

Blood found on this man's shirt matches Stephen's DNA.

- Do you know this man, Andrew? - No.

Just that he came into the office.

Stephen knows lots of men, old friends, exes.

Brighton seems to be full of them.

And what about this man?

I've seen his photo. He's a friend of Stephen's from years ago.

Is this mk?

So you do know him?

No. I've never met him.

Stephen likes to keep his past to himself.

This is the diary we found in Stephen's desk.

This is your handwriting, isn't it, Andrew?

We had it analysed.

- The writing in this diary... - Is mine, yes.

And I put it into Stephen's desk

because why should I take the blame for it?

It wasn't me taking the cash.

- Perverting the course of justice... - No!

Look, I just panicked.

And did Stephen make you change all the invoices and the payment details?

And the e-mails to the owners, lying about...?

I did it for Stephen.

For the business.

I wanted to feel important to him.

When did you last see Stephen?

A few days ago, he called me.

Instead of going out as we'd planned for my birthday,

he was meeting yet another old friend on his boat,

but when I asked who it was and why hadn't I been invited,

he just told me to grow up. I'm sick of it.

Who was he meeting, Andrew?

I don't know.

What was the name of the boat?

I don't know.

Water runs

He coughs and splutters

Mum?

Yeah?

There's a bag.

Cherry blossom falls...

Scattered by the four great winds.

Life is but fleeting.

Mark Kenneth blakewood,

better known as mk.

Mk flew into Gatwick from Tokyo on Thursday morning.

We know apartment 3 was booked for mk that night.

We also believe mk's dismembered body

was picked up by a dustbin lorry on the Friday morning.

Anything more on the Ford Van that collided with the moped?

We're checking cctv. There was some blue paint on the moped lights,

possible transference.

We'll need more than that if we're ever going to identify it.

These are postmortem photographs of the second body we've found.

- That has yet to be identified. - Have we found it all yet?

No. Some of it's still missing. Maybe we'll never find them.

Yeah. Neither his fingerprints nor his DNA are on either database.

And nothing from missing persons,

though we know a man matching his description

walked into the Fraser property agency looking for Stephen

on Thursday afternoon.

Stephens's business is on the verge of bankruptcy.

As well as fraudulently renting out apartments,

there's also evidence of money-laundering and false accounting.

Did Stephen invite mk over here in order

to conduct some kind of lucrative drug deal that then went horribly wrong?

Another line of enquiry is Stephen's boyfriend Andrew who, two years ago,

was cautioned for stalking an ex-boyfriend.

He knew mk was coming to Brighton, he has access to the apartments.

A blue Ford Van!

Registration...

Is a...

2006. You think it could be the same one?

- What are you doing? - Just keep going.

- She laughs - are you ready?

Ok.

Surprise.

It's a new cot. The one you said you wanted.

We can't afford this.

Well...

Someone owed me some money.

This is so amazing.

Mick?

Mick?

Where were you last Thursday night, early Friday morning?

I was out with some mates.

Ally had the baby.

A baby girl. Ruby.

We have witnesses who say they saw your Van parked in church street.

He wasn't in church street.

He broke down outside the club.

Is that what he told you?

Come on. Let's go.

What's happening now?

We need to make a search of the house.

Mick's not done anything.

You can search all day long and you won't find nothing.

Taramelli: Did you get these done locally?

No comment.

- Can you remember the name of the tattooist who did them? - No comment.

We have cctv images of you leaving at 3:04 am.

Does that sound about right?

No comment.

We have a witness who said your Van was double parked

in church street at around 3:30 am.

No comment.

You received six messages and four phone calls from your partner ally

between 3:36 am and 4:52 am,

but no phone calls or messages from your phone.

No comment.

We found this knife... At a recycling centre

where a second body was discovered.

Your fingerprints are on the handle.

- I ask you again... - I can tell you what happened.

I saw the knife lying in the road, and I thought it looked dangerous

so I threw it in a bin.

The piece of blood-soaked cloth I found at the recycling depot...

Are you going to ask me if I examined it?

Well, I do wonder what it is you do all day.

It matched the dead man's blood,

but the cloth also contained oil paint, turpentine, white spirit.

And the bin liner?

It too matched the blood of the dead man,

so too his fingerprints.

What about the striation marks?

Well, they didn't match any of the bin liners

found with the body parts in them, and until we find

the roll from which it came, there's very little point...

You're now going to tell me you've found a roll of bin liners,

and you're holding them in an evidence bag.

She chuckles softly

do you recognise these, Mick?

No comment.

I didn't know this, but bin liners have unique striation marks,

from the machine that makes them and we found a bin liner with a man's blood on it.

These striation marks match exactly.

A bin liner?

He clears his throat are you serious?

I'm as surprised as you are.

But we know you were there, Mick.

We've spoken to your ex, keryn.

You drove her home. Your fingerprints are on the knife.

And the bin liner covered with the dead man's blood

matches bin liners found in the back of your Van.

On the Thursday night, I went out with some mates to a club.

Some bloke on a moped drove into me.

I got out to have a look. I could see that it was bad.

He had a knife in his stomach. There was a lot of blood.

So I helped him into the back of the Van. I knew I was well over the limit,

so I thought I could get him to the hospital myself.

Then the Van wouldn't start...

- Come on! - Engine turns over

- fuck! - Phone rings

ally?

Man strains and groans

I'll be right there, love.

I asked the bloke in the back if he knew someone I could call

- to help him get to hospital but... - Did you ask his name?

He... he wasn't making much sense.

Man gasps

come on, wake up!

Shit.

Shit!

- And then you dumped him in a bin? - I thought he was dead.

He was covered in blood. What else could I do?

Call the police, call an ambulance. You might have saved his life, Mick.

I had to get home. Ally was having our baby. I promised her.

I thought you said your Van had broken down.

I thought it had, but then... I'd just stalled it,

then I couldn't get it started. I panicked. I just had to get home.

My baby girl...

You've told us about one dead man, Mick. Now tell us about the other man.

After you left the nightclub, where did you go?

I-I've told you what happened.

Another man was murdered on the same night, just 50 metres away.

He, too, was stuffed into a rubbish bin.

We know there was no activity on your phone for over 90 minutes.

What were you doing in church street for an hour-and-a-half?

I was with keryn.

She told us you just drove her home and then left...

No. No, she's just telling you that because I told her not to say anything.

I was with her... you know?

You were with keryn while ally was giving birth to your baby?

It should never have happened. None of it should.

It's like I suddenly woke up,

and ally was having the baby.

I was going to be a dad and I just knew,

in that moment, I had to change.

I just had to be there.

That's why I had to get rid of him.

Softly: I'm sorry.

Clarissa mullery, I presume.

What are you doing here?

I was looking for my wife.

We were meant to be having dinner.

You get a piece of evidence...

A key piece of evidence?

And can you find where it fits?

Why don't car manufacturers just list the keys that fit into their cars?

Do you ever regret not having children?

No.

In all the years we've been married?

I'd understand if you did.

Do you?

It's never been an option for me. It has for you.

Falling in love with you, Clarissa,

was never an option.

Je ne regrette rien?

Or as they say in Japanese, koukai nande shinai?

Ai shiteru.

Laughter and chatter outside

muffled: Hey!

You're looking at me again.

You're here. In my kitchen.

In the middle of the night.

Are you all right?

Matt...

If I got pregnant, is that something that you would be...

Happy with...?

Are you... pregnant?

No.

No. I'm not.

You thought you were, and you're disappointed.

It's not something I've ever thought about before,

and now I can't stop thinking about it.

Why didn't you talk to me about it?

Because you have two beautiful children,

who are both doing brilliantly at college,

and you're on the brink of this amazing career...

No, I have a beautiful girlfriend, who's brilliant at her job,

and I was the brink of an amazing weekend.

Yes, you are.

But seriously, I mean,

why would you want to be encumbered with a new family?

Encumbered with?

There's nothing that you and I can ever do

that would ever make me feel "encumbered."

What, so if I were to get pregnant...

I mean, I don't even know if I can.

I know I'm much better at dealing with people at the end of their lives

- than at the beginning of their lives. - What about dealing with

the middle-aged man that's in your kitchen?

I can deal with it.

Listen. If it happens, that's great. And if it doesn't...

Nikki laughs

The police are convinced the man they have in custody,

- Mick... what's his name? - Knight.

Yeah, Mick knight. They're convinced he killed both men.

At the moment, he's admitting being involved in the death of the second man,

- but not mk. - What do they think happened?

They think Mick was in church street

when he saw mk going into the holiday apartments.

They both have a history of drugs, so...

According to bex, mk has nothing to do with drugs any more.

Well, the police believe Mick went into the apartments

either to confront mk about something

or to take advantage of an ongoing drugs deal, possibly set up by Stephen Fraser.

Mick then drove off in his Van

and it was then that he collided with a moped rider.

The moped stolen from akito?

Yeah. They want us to go back over

- all the evidence we've got and see if we missed anything. - The keys.

I've exhausted every car make,

so I now believe this key belongs to a boat.

Message from ds quicke.

Client of mk's in hospital with sepsis.

Quicke: We put an alert out on mk's friends and clients.

Carola Brewster, she went to mk for a tattoo

and was taken ill nine days ago.

Beeping

detective? She's stopped breathing.

Shocking.

I'm ready to call it. Anyone disagree?

I thought you lot were finished.

I'm sorry, mrs knight, we're going to have to search the house again.

Certainly looks like it could be the work of mk.

Every time the needles of the tebori or any needle goes into the skin,

it's ostensibly opening a wound, a pathway for germs to enter the body.

I think this will be the cause of the sepsis.

Clarissa: What's her name? Quicke: Carola Brewster.

The blood's been infected throughout the body...

Causing catastrophic organ failure.

The hospital thought she might have been poisoned by the inks used for the tattoo.

Jack!

What have you got? Thank you.

Detective inspector?

What are you doing?

This has been identified as mk's blood.

Can you explain how it got onto your baby's blanket?

I got rid of it all.

Burned it.

- What are you...? - Give us a map, I'll show you.

Water runs

he calls out weakly

He coughs

help me!

Help!

Help me!

We found where you'd burned mk's passport, the bloodied groundsheet,

the remnants of Japanese tebori.

What I don't understand, Mick, is why you didn't tell us about these hands.

There was all this stuff in the back of the moped.

Jack's found some burned hands.

Belonging to mk?

I'll take samples.

Hopefully we'll also get some base evidence from underneath the fingernails.

The images from the camera were badly corrupted,

but Max found an mp4 file

and managed to extract the GPS metadata

gyroscope, accelerometer,

temperature, timestamps and, crucially, co-ordinates.

The moped leaves the Marina at 9:16, travels through Brighton,

finally arriving outside the church street holiday apartments at 9:29.

DNA underneath mk's fingernails...

Belongs to the second dead man.

Having murdered and dismembered mk,

he came out of the apartment

and got onto the moped he'd stolen earlier that night from akito.

He then crashed into the blue Van driven by Mick knight

and impaled himself on the knife he was carrying.

Guy Brewster.

Six weeks ago, guy's wife carola went to mk

to have a matching tattoo done.

Bex said it was to celebrate their new adventure...

Travelling around the world in their boat.

But the tattoo got infected. Looks like guy blamed mk and the inks he used.

So where does Stephen fit into all of this?

Carola's dream.

That's what the Japanese characters mean.

Carola's dream.

Stephen!

Stephen?

We'll take it from here.

Ok...

Turns out Stephen was telling Andrew the truth.

He came here to meet an old friend.

Guy Brewster.

Carola's as good as dead, and it's all his fault!

Tell me where mk is!

Ok! Ok!

Muffled: What are you doing? Where are you going?

Clarissa: Guy went to see Stephen,

believing mk was responsible for carola's sepsis.

He assumed Stephen would know where he was.

Guy leaves Stephen tied up and heads out to confront mk.

He then sees akito getting on her moped, shoves her aside

and steals it.

He then kills mk, and after disposing of the body,

collides with Mick's Van.

Guy blamed mk for destroying their dream.

He must have been out of his mind to do what he did.

Yeah. Before he was unceremoniously dumped into a bin

and then himself dismembered by the recycling process.

My god.

What is it?

- Guy was wrong. - Wrong? What do you mean?

Results are back from the microbiology lab.

It wasn't mk's inks that infected carola.

It was vibrio vulnificus.

The seaborne bacteria?

Yeah.

We know carola loved water.

She must have gone swimming in the sea or a lake or river.

Surely someone must have told her

not to go swimming so soon after having the tattoos done.

Can I speak to Hannah quicke, please?

What did you think when Kelly got a tattoo? Were you cross?

I wasn't cross.

It's her body. She can do what she wants, it's just...

Don't like it when she does what she wants?

Being a parent is...

- What? - Well, it's not easy.

Maybe you'll find out one day.

How?

I love you.

I love you too.

It's 20 years. Orders have disappeared.

Everyone, including me,

has been so busy just getting on.

Any idea why your father would run?

He's confused. He wants to forget the past.

Forget the dead.

How old would she be now?

She was, what, eight years younger than you?

Any idea what it is yet?

It's a recurring feature of handmade ieds.

Orla! Do you think it's possible it might be active again?

If the killing starts, there's nothing you can do about it.

You can only stay out of the way.

Just leave it alone!

He grunts

orla!
