All language subtitles for The Red King S01E04 - Episode 4

During the widow's veil,
we're completely cut off.

It can be really sunny here, but

contact with the mainland
can get a bit patchy.

The True Way. Everyone says

it's just for the
tourists. They're real.

He took it. He took the file.

Someone on this
island put down The

True Way symbol,
parked their car, and

waited for a 13 year old
boy to freeze to death.

I'm gonna find
whoever killed Cai.

You are the flame that
shows us the righteous path.

The True Way.

☺ Subtitle created by Svenni101 ☺

It's off the Welsh coast. It's a

community. And I'm gonna
be their police sergeant.

I'm getting a boat
there. Love a boat, me.

When will you come back?

I don't know. As soon as I can.

I'll miss you.

Will you?

Will you really?

Of course.

Will I?

We all will. They love you here.

They're always saying,
when's Grace visiting?

I'm gonna
miss you, too, mum.

Mum?

Oh.. love.

You're not my daughter.

My daughter's a whore.

The car is a non
starter. We don't even

know what color
that is. Grey. Green,

maybe. It could be
a Land Rover. If the

image was clearer,
we could use the local

intel system to
do a partial vehicle

search. If we had access
to the Internet, that is.

I know, I keep asking.

It could be back up today.
It could be end of next week.

Do you want the jar?

Okay. What about
whoever took Silas's file?

He had a mask, you said?

Yeah, like a sun, sort of a
circle with a face in the middle.

Oh, yeah.
That's the Wood God.

You know what it is?

Remember how everyone

was saying that The
True Way is just for

tourists? Well, it
is, but they're our

traditions as
well. There's four

characters, right?
There's the Wood God,

Triple Headed Goddess,
the Red King, and

the Holly King. When
we were kids, we'd

dress up as them
and go to parties and

parades and stuff.
You know, like how

people dress up as
Dracula or Frankenstein

- for Halloween?
- It's the monster.

- Frankenstein was the scientist.
- What?

So, the Wood God,
does he have a role in the

mythology? Is he like a
messenger, an executioner?

I have no idea.
Our moms

would just make us a
costume when we run around.

This is why
we need that bloody

file. So that leaves
Gruffudd.

I saw that.

We still don't know
where he was during

last year's widow's veil or why....
- Hello

Shop....

ding.

Yes. Just a second. Silas.

I know what I wanted to
ask you. The day that Cai

was found in Lucy's
garden, she said

Gruffudd had a word with him.

Do you remember what he said?

Don't be soft now, lad. Stay
out to people's gardens.

Did you hear him say that?

No. He took Cai aside.

I was with Lucy, but
Gruffudd told me afterwards.

So...

I've had a think
and I've decided

not to press charges on Ian.

Okay. You sure about that?

He lost his son.

He wasn't thinking straight.

Bygones and all that.

I stopped by his house.
But there's no one in.

No, he's here,
but we'll tell him.

I'll take him a
brew in a minute.

No, maybe don't. With
this not being a hotel.

How are you
going on with my file?

Oh yes... the file.

It's been stolen.

What?

My car skidded off

the road when I was driving back

yesterday, and when
I came to, it was gone.

That took me months.

I'm really sorry.

But we'll get it
back. I promise.

Told you, though, didn't I?

They're everywhere.

Perhaps we can chat later, though.
See how much of it you can remember.

Yeah?

In the meantime, I just need a quick
chat with my illustrious predecessor.

Oh, this doesn't look good.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

If you're gonna go
see Grace, can you

give her that for me?

Bit late for breakfast, innit?

It's lunch, actually, because
Grace doesn't eat breakfast.

Did you not know that?

Welsh cakes.

These home made?

Yeah. I had a spare minute.

Made me a pack lunch once.

Okay, here we go.
You're great at this.

Cup-A-Soup and a
Ferrero Rocher.

I asked, if you wanted to

help out beyond the
bar yesterday in the

hall because I
thought it might be nice

for us to do something
together. But you were busy.

Oh, were you hoping we'd make

some precious
memories? Sorry, that went

right over my head.
Hey, next time, give

me a wink. So. I know.
I'd hate to miss you

being maternal again.
It's like a fucking comet.

You were gonna
talk to the others.

See what they know about Cai.

Yeah, I did.

No one knows anything.

Of course not.
Cause it wasn't us.

Anyone could have done
that symbol.

We're being framed.

You watch.

We should go to the police.

We say we're in The
True Way. And we wouldn't

do something like that.

Oh, my God!
You're not serious.

We tell them.

We say...

You know who them
is, don't you?

My husband.

This one's dad.

So that's us over. I mean,
that's divorce, that is.

So, I think I'll give that a miss.
Thanks very much.

Is it, though?

Maybe no one will
mind what we are.

At the end of the
day, it's just about

belief, isn't it? That's all we
do. We believe something.

It's the fall that'll
kill you.

Butch Cassidy and
the Sundance Kid.

They're on a cliff and
they're about to jump. And

one says, I can't swim. And the
other says.

What's that matter?

It's the fall that'll kill you.

You're right.

People won't care
what we believe.

They care we lied to them.

Right!

Exactly!

So, we say nothing.

Keep digging.

I'm telling you, it's
a stitch up.

But if it was us...

someone's got to know
something.

Come on.

Lucy, listen.

Keep your head down here.

While I sort things out.

Why? What's wrong?

Nothing. It's just....

delicate.

Soon. Best not to
be asking too many

questions. Yeah?

I got this.

That's what kids
say, isn't it?

I've got this.

There is a state of panic
now because of your actions.

My God, Grace.
You have

a duty of care. You
can't just present

this like the threat
is current, is ongoing.

The threat
is current. And while

The True Way is still
active, the threat is ongoing.

If there
had been a secret

death cult on St.
Jory for the best part

of a century, I
think at some point

someone might have
noticed. Now...

- Hey. What's going on?
- ... have people coming to me.

Grace is getting a bollocking
because she told everybody

about The True Way.

- What possessed you?
- I did it because the investigation is

deadlocked. Perhaps
this might encourage

someone to come
forward. If people are

offended, that is too
bad. Perhaps they

could spare a thought
for Cai, locked in

that shelter while
someone sat in their

car listening to him
freeze to death.

You know what? It's
great you're taking an

interest in this case,
but honestly, the

best thing you can
do for Cai now is to

let me do my job.

Don't think I've ever
seen anyone talk to

Heather like that
before.

She's a pussycat really.

Sorry for your wasted journey.

All right, yes, of course.
Uhh.. thank you, Grace.

Best thing you can
do for Cai now is....

is let me do my job.

Not gonna lie. Tiny bit

turned on and I know
Owen is too.

Wait... Shut up.
I'm not.

I'm not, Grace.

What are you doing here anyway?

Okay, hear me out.

You're totally understaffed.

So how about I
help you out for a bit?

Now, before you say
what you're gonna say.

I've prepared a list of reasons.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

Really?

It is?

Yeah. Like you said,
we're understaffed.

You can man the front
desk, take messages.

That sort of thing?

No, she can't interact

with the public.
She's basically feral.

Besides, doesn't she need a
background check or something?

Owen, you're literally
the police.

Does she have a criminal record?

No.

Amazing.

Some follow up
questions. Do I get paid?

No. In fact, that's
kind of illegal.

But I'll buy you a sandwich.

Do I get a badge?

No, but
while the phone lines

are done, you can
have a walkie-talkie.

For police business only,
so no mucking about.

Well, we'll see about that.

I know whose
car that is.

Hi, Ian. How you doing?

I was just gonna
bring you a brew.

After you showed me
this picture yesterday, I've

been trying to work out
where I'd seen it before.

It's Mihangel's.

The first time we met.

I'd been searching his garage.

I... I passed out.
Remember?

That's where I'd seen it.

Okay. I mean, the
image isn't very clear.

Can you describe it?

It was.... It's an
ancient... uhh... Land

Rover. Range
Rover. I don't know the

difference. It's dark
green.

But that's
more kind of Grey.

Yeah, but something's

happened to the
paintwork... on the roof.

It's oxidized, isn't
it? It's reacted.

It's corroded. It's
sort of olive Grey

now. It's olive gray.

Okay. Ehh... Winter,

could you get Ian a
cup of tea? I'm gonna

go talk to Gruffudd.
But on the way back...

No, no, no. You
have to go there now.

Listen to me.

That is the car that was

there when Cai died.

Tell me about
Gruffudd's daughter.

Oh, my God.

She disappeared a
year to the day before

Cai. That warrants a
conversation? Surely?

This thing with
Gruffudd, this is a...

Ohh. When, you can't see...
based on the things you can see..

- Uhh.. A blind spot?
- Yesss

- No, it isn't.
- Blind spot, thank you.

Look, we know The True Way
connected to Cai's death,

so the only way it could be
Gruffudd is if he's a member.

I don't think even
you believe that.

I can see what he means
about the roof?

What do you reckon?

Not sure.

Game face on, though.

Hi, Mihangel. Do you mind if we
have a quick word?

This won't take too
long. Like I said the

other day, I'm talking
to everyone, really.

I just want to ask you
about the car in the garage.

Okay.

Okay. Mihangel.

Listen to me. I need you
to put the gun down.

I don't think you
want to do this.

I think you want to tell

me something. But you're scared.

Right?

So am I. So is Owen,
aren't you Owen?

I'm absolutely bricking it.

So....

try something for me.

In your mind. I want
you to jump ahead to a

moment after you've told me.

Think about the
relief you'll feel.

Do it for me now.

We'll all do it.

Feels nice. Yeah?
That relief.

It's right here.

Seconds away.

That's it. Should
put the gun down.

That's it. We'll
talk. It's all good.

It's all good.

Is somebody hurt?

Uhhh...
Grace will explain.

You'll need these.

Oh, and.... mind where you step.

I might have thrown up a bit.

What's going on?

I've just had Winter pitch up at the
house, telling me to bring Ian here.

Look, lovie.

It's classified.

Hey, we talked about this.

Where's the file?

What's happened?

You arrested him?

Mihangel took his own life
before we could speak to him.

- Why would he do that?
- We can discuss that

in a sec. First, I need you
to confirm he's deceased.

He has no head.

But things have to be
done in a certain way.

He's dead.

Thank you.

It was him, wasn't it?

- We don't know that for sure.
- Why else would he kill himself?

That is a valid
question.

Fuck off, Grace.

I swear to God.

The case against
him is very compelling.

Fuck.

Ian!

Ian!

It was him.

Ian. Ian. Mihangel's
body is evidence now.

It has to be preserved.
Do you understand?

I want you to go home.

But you can't say

anything to anyone.
Not yet.

I'm serious.

You've got to be kidding me.

They wouldn't leave
till they'd seen you.

Was it Mihangel? Is it over?

Ehh...

I... I can't comment
at this time.

Who do you reckon
told them? Ian?

Ehhh....

Yeah. Chances are.

They're right, though, Grace.

You did it. Got him.

So what happens now?

Well... ehhh...

once the phone
lines are back up, I'll

need to contact
the coroner and the

forensics team on the
mainland.

Mihangel suicide will be
deemed death after police

contact, so we'll be
referred to the IOPC.

Wait, we'll be investigated?

Yeah, don't worry.
It's just what happens.

We can't investigate
what happened to Mihangel

because we're basically
witnesses. But we

can carry on
investigating Cai's death.

What's left to investigate?

We're pretty

certain that is his car
in the picture and he

killed himself before
he could be questioned.

There's nothing much
more incriminating than that.

Except we know
literally nothing.

If it was Mihangel.

Did he act alone?

If.. if he's in The True Way.

Is he, like, the only
member? And who

kills someone by
making them freeze to

death? Is that how
they do it? Is it a

ritual? Ohh, I need that file.

See, I looked for
it at Mihangel's,

but I couldn't see
it anywhere. Then

there's motive. Why
kill Cai? Far as I can

tell, they barely
knew each other. I'm

saying this isn't a victory,
okay? This is not justice.

I reckon Ian would say it is.

Well, that's why
parents of dead children

don't decide the law.

Okay, okay, okay.

Tell me everything.

Yeah. Good luck.

She's got her face on

because we didn't get
to question Mihangel.

So you got him?

We have to

shut up shop for the
day and get so drunk

we actually go blind.

No. Winter. There's a whole
process that has to happen

now, okay? This is a total mess.

Blah, blah, blah. Tell me
what happened. Did he

do it in front of you?

This is insane.

Okay, if everyone
knows about Mihangel,

we need to secure his house.

All roads lead to this twat.

Minh. Hi, Grace. We
met at the village hall.

I know who you are.

Oh, Gruffudd
said....

Never mind.

Is he.. is he in? Can
I have a quick chat?

He's not here.

Don't know
when he'll be back.

Alright.

You want
to come in?

Yeah, that'd be
great. Thank you.

How long have you been here?

- Since last April.
- Aha.

They say in the

widow's veil was
really mild this year.

Compared to last
year, anyway.

At least you had
Gruffudd with you.

That's right, isn't it?
Gruffudd was here with you.

For the whole thing?

He didn't nip off at
any point?

It's fine. He's not in

any trouble. It's my
job to ask this stuff.

There was the cow.

The cow?

Someone's cow got out.

He was still the police sergeant,
so he had to go and help.

Oh, yeah. I hear this
happens a lot with cows.

Sorry, when did you
say this was?

First day of the storm.

Uhhh... About five o'clock.

And how long was he
gone? An hour, 2 hours?

Something like that.

And how did he know
about the cow? Cause

I'm assuming the phone
lines were still down.

Maybe someone
came to the door.

Did you see them?

Okay, no worries.

One last thing and then
I will leave you in peace.

You ever meet his
daughter, Bethan?

She'd left before I got here.

No, but I mean, she

must pop back for
birthdays, Christmases,

that sort of thing. God,
your wedding even.

I don't know anything about her.

Thank you
for your time.

Do you mind if I
use your toilet?

I'll be in touch if
there's anything else

I need. But that
was... that was really

helpful. Thank you.

You know what I did
back home?

What my job was?

I taught physics. Some
chemistry too, but mainly physics.

That surprises you, doesn't it?

No. Well, absolutely not.

It shouldn't make any
difference what I did.

But it might help you.
Take my word for it.

When I tell you I know
who Gruffudd is.

And I'm still here.

Think about that.

Winter... what are
you doing here?

I'm basically a detective now.

I see.

Is Grace around?

I just wanted to, well...
congratulate her.

Oh, don't bother.

She's not here.

Right. Well, if you

could pass on the
message nonetheless.

You bet.

We've never really
spoken, have we?

You and I.

We should.

Why?

Why?

Not saying no. Saying why?

Communities have cliques.

That's fine. That's
normal. But we don't

do cliques, you and I, do we?

It can be a bit
isolating at times.

Yeah.

Don't mind it.

You're rich. You're
hot. I just thought

everyone would
want to be your pal.

I'm half the island's
landlord, so it makes

relationships complicated.

You're not mine.

Ladies and gentlemen.

A toast.

To Mihangel.

May hell be real,

may roast,

may rot.

Cheers, everyone.
Cheers.

Grace. Grace. Grace.

The cat... is out of the
bag,

so you can tell me
everything.

What sound did his head make

when it exploded?

I mean, I'm imagining
a sort of POP.

SPLAT.

What? Let me give,
get you a drink.

Oh, no, listen, I'd love
to, but I've still got a

pile of work to do
and I just nipped back to

get changed. Another time, yeah?

This place is dead.

Not as dead as
Mihangel.

No.

Sorry. Is it too soon?

Too much?
Yep.

Gruffudd, where are you going?

Gruffudd!

- You can't be in here.
- Oh, I'm sorry. Do

you not like it when
someone invades your privacy?

Gruffudd!

No. Get downstairs now.

Don't panic, Lowri.

I'm just here to talk
to the girl.

We're cool as cucumbers,

aren't we, Grace?

I'm fine, Lowri. Thank
you.

We need to do this.

Right.

Enough. Enough.

Now. You crossed

a line today. This is
harassment.

Once and for all. Why didn't
you do a proper search for Cai?

You're
not listening to me.

You're done. I'll
have your job for this.

Trust me, once
this is over, you are

welcome to it. You
lied about the area you

searched and just
happened to miss where

the body was. It's a
bit of a coincidence,

don't you think? Or
are you just inept?

You know what?

You're right.

I could have
done a better search.

I mean, the boy was

already dead, but
sure. Tell me, though,

is that better or
worse than your prime

suspect killing
himself in front of you?

The day Cai
disappeared, you told him

about his dad and
Lucy. Why?

I thought it was time he knew
exactly who his father was.

Ah, there's
more to it than that. I

want to say it's
because you're obsessed

with Lucy, but then
you just make Ian's

life hell. Instead,
you went for Cai. You

hated him. Why? Then
you were AWOL for a

chunk of last year's
widow's veil while

- Cai froze to death.
- Any of this feel familiar?

- What?
- Those boys that you

reported back home,
has it occurred to you

that this is how they
started? Huh?

A bend of rule here and
there, quick detour on

the way to the toilet,
bit of pressure on

the suspect's family,
but what does it matter?

When you're
certain you've got

your man and before
you know it, you've

beaten the shit out of
someone in a car park.

Tell me....

how does it feel?

To be just like them?

Where's your daughter, Gruffudd?

Shut up.

On the mainland, I heard.

Funny, that's what
you said about Cai.

Grace, I said shut up.

And what teenager goes
anywhere without their laptop?

Perhaps Grace is
right...

and Mihangel is

just the tip of a very
unpleasant iceberg.

Could there be more of them?

People we know?

Nah. Chances
are Mihangel was

just some lone nutter
who found a book or

something and thought,
oh yeah, this sounds great.

You really think so?

Like you said, if there'd
been some mad cult

on the island for
hundred years, we

probably would
have noticed.

Sorry. The walls here are
not exactly sound proof.

Are you in The True
Way, Winter?

Cliques aren't my
thing, remember?

So... why did you take
Silas's file from Grace's car?

What?

You were seen...

and now here you are...

in the police station.

In the middle of
everything.

See...

I think you are in
The True Way

and you are trying
to sabotage the

investigation into Cai's death.

Sorry, babes. I left
his lordship's rabbit

in the village hall.
He wont settle without it.

Mum's got him, but
she's pulling her hair out.

Silas. Just
gotta pop out, get

something for Elan.

Okay.

I can't believe it.
We were literally

talking to him this
morning. Now, I still

think we should go
to the police. For there's

stuff in his house that
connect him to us.

There won't be.
Mihangel knew the rules.

I don't know
what we are anymore.

I never cared it was a secret.

We didn't do anything.
We just believed.

And now this has
happened. I...

- don't know what we are.
- That's the second time that

you've said that now.

We don't just

believe. We are
the answer. The last

living subjects of
the ancient kings.

I don't care what
.... left. What

Mihangel did has
nothing to do with us.

Anyway, he's gone now.

So just hold
your nerve.

It's nearly over.

Okay.

What's Romans 6:1,

Douglas? Roman
6:1. What is it?

It's from the Bible.

I'm not sure of
the quote exactly.

Would you have a Bible on you?

No, we don't carry them
around with us.

There might be
one in the office.

Okay, who has keys to the hall?

You.

Lucy does for her
toddler group. Who else?

Heather does. She
has keys to all the

public buildings...

even my house.

You could ask her... I guess.

Here.

Here we are.

Romans 6:1

What should we say
then? Shall we continue

in sin that...

What?
That what?

That... uhh..

grace may abound.

Thank you, Douglas.
That's all I need for now.

Send Lucy and Elan
home. But I'll need

to get statements
from them both.

Probably tonight.

You still reckon it
could be Gruffudd then?

I don't know.
But he was missing for

a couple of hours
while Cai was in the

shelter. Minh told me.

Wait, was he?

For fuck sake.

Until now The True Way have
covered their tracks.

Cai's death was a

secret. They wanted
everything to be

invisible. This is a
statement. They want

us to see them now. They
are building to something.

Building to what?

Oh my God. Why
aren't you freaking out?

It's on my to
do list.

In the meantime,
we're gonna take

photos of everything,
every detail.

Then the body will
have to be removed

before it starts to
decay. How did you get

on with the funeral
directors?

They're on their way.

Maybe this time
they can hang on to it.

I'm gonna
go talk to Heather.

Wait. Should you
be doing any of this?

What? Why wouldn't I?

That Bible quote was
meant for you.

We don't...
We don't know that.

How daft do you think I
am? It said your bloody name.

Look.... I can't do
this on my own.

But if they're after you now,
maybe you shouldn't be here.

There's places on the
other side of the island.

You might be safer
there.

I never thought you were
daft. Not for one second.

But I owe it to Cai to see
this through to the end.

One job, gentlemen.
You had one job.

Uhh. You can go home
now. I'll have to take

statements from you
both, probably tonight.

I want to talk to Grace.

What? She's busy.

- Talk to her tomorrow.
- No, I need to do it now. It's urgent.

Look, you can talk to me later or you
can talk to her tomorrow. It's up to you.

Don't be a dick,
Lucy. Not tonight.

Save your breath.

Grace?

Mihangel's body just
turned up in the village hall.

It's been desecrated,
covered in true way symbols.

You have keys
to the hall. Where are they?

Oh... wait. What?

Someone did what
to Mihangel's body?

Someone in The True
Way stole it from the

funeral home, took it to
the hall and desecrated it.

Douglas said you have keys
to the hall. Where are they?

Do you still have them?

Sorry. Who told you
I have keys?

Douglas did.
Heather, wake up.

Sorry, it's, um.
It's been a night.

It's fine.

Let me check.

Yes...

mine are still here.

I don't know what that tells me,
but, um. Okay.

Your grandfather

must have records
about The True Way.

Notebooks, journals,
that sort of thing.

Do you still have
them?

His son, my father

destroyed everything.
He was so ashamed of

what his father
did to St. Jory, he

wanted it expunged.
Most of The True Way

still have descendants
on the island.

They might have records.

I don't have anything.

Oh, I... do

have
this, though.

I was going to bring
it to you first thing.

I've had a look through it. It's
actually a pretty good primer.

This is Silas's.

Where did you get it?
I've been looking for this.

It was someone... who gave
it to me. They came

across it. They passed it to
me so I could give it to you.

Who? Who had it?

I'd rather not say. The
important thing is you have it now.

You realise this is how we ended
up here, because of fucking secrets.

Oh, Grace, lovie. What a
day. Come on, sit down.

No, I'm good. Really. I've...

This is me using
my stern voice.

Apply arse to seat.
Come on, sit down.

You look awful.

Okay.

I've been thinking.

Is there someone you can call?

Get them over here?

They can stay.

No, the phones don't work.

All right. When we're
back up and running

again. A fella...

or a girl?

....

Well, there isn't, but
thank you.

Come on.

A lovely girl like you.

Oh... Love is chaos.

Right! But your mum, then.

She's, uhh...

No, I.... I lost her
a long time ago.

Me too.

If it's any consolation.

Parents are dead.

Winter's dad...

I... God knows where.

I hope he's dead.

Well, you got Winter.

No. No, we're miles apart, love.

Different planet.

I was so young
when I had her.

I couldn't be a mum,

so I loved having
this little firecracker.

She was more like a
sister than a daughter.

But then, of course, what
she needed was her mum.

She would have been dead
proud of you, your mum.

Because I would be.

I should go up. I've got to read this and
Christ, there is so much to do.

Did Winter
give you that?

No. Heather did.

Why?

No, not.. nothing. I just...

I could have sworn I
saw that in Winter's room.

Would you turn the lights off
when you're done? And night, lovie.

Oh, thank God you're
here. I'm so bored.

What's that?

Silas's file.

Oh, you got it.

Where was it?

Heather gave
it to me.

Nice one.

You're not gonna ask
me where Heather got it?

Uhhh... Okay.

Where did Heather get it?

Someone gave it to
her. She won't say who.

Great story.

It was you. Your
mum saw it in your

bedroom. She told me.

Are you in The True Way?

No. No, it's

- nothing like that.
- So, why did you take it?

I was gonna give it back.

That's not an answer.

Do you know
something about Cai?

Something you don't
want me to know?

I don't want you to leave.

Look...

you're the best thing
that's ever happened here.

And once it's over,

it's not like you're
gonna stay, is it?

It was a spur of
the moment thing.

I followed you out into
the storm because I

was worried. And then
I saw you'd crashed

and I ran over and
saw the file on the

floor of the car and...

I didn't think it was

gonna stop you solving
the murder. Just...

delay it a bit.

You can't work here. We

can't be friends. Do
you understand that?

No, I can. We can.

Look... I knew it was
stupid and I wanted to give

it back. I just didn't
know how.

I'm really sorry.

You have no idea how

hard it is for me to
stay, to be stable.

I need to know what's
real. I need to know

who's real. I need
to be around people I

can trust. I need
to be around adults.

You said my mum told
you she saw it in my room.

Watch her.

All right?

What did Lucy say?

What do you think?

Same as you.

You should get some sleep.

His lordship will be up soon.

Aren't you coming?

I'm gonna
make sure the crime

scenes are secured,
and...

That's gonna take
all night.

She's, uhh...

She's right, you know.

Grace.

There is something wrong here.

- St. Jory is not a good place.
- Well, that's nice.

This is our home.

These are our
friends, our neighbours.

Yeah...

well, one of our
friends, killed Cai.

One of our neighbors did
that to Mihangel's body.

Right. Listen to me.

We're gonna get out
of here, okay?

I'm not raising my son

around these people
and a bastard...

You tired, love? And
you've had a shock.

- We've all had a shock.
- I can tell you now, Ellen.

They're not taking him.

Just, I want you
to understand that.

I don't believe all that
True Way stuff anyway.

I reckon it's someone
making it look like it's them.

God, is that what
I sounded like?

We overlook
stuff here.

No ask no questions, tell
no lies, that sort of thing.

This stalemate.

True Way broke
it, and we can't live

like that ever again.

What's that saying...?

You can't unring a bell!

I...

don't know what
time I'll be home.

I need to get to the
station first thing.

Ian, I swear to
God, I'm gonna...

Ian?

Gruffudd?

You're here!

I need to show you something.

Bloody hell, you've
been busy.

Okay.

Where is it? Here.
This is from Silas's

file. It's a description of
True Way punishments.

Wait.
This is Silas's file?

Yeah. Winter had it.
Do you know how they

executed people
back in the day when the

first lord Nancarrow
was running the island?

They threw them down
the big pit on the hill.

Bloody hell.

No, that is not the end of it.

Now, the pit is thought to be about

200 meters deep, but
they'd send someone

down to get the
body, bring it back up,

and then display
what was left of it.

What, like Mihangel's body?

No, not like
they did with Mihangel.

Do you remember when I asked if the
Wood God had a role in the mythology?

Well, he does. They all do.

And anyone that
they punish in this way

becomes the Holly
King. Now, I thought the

Holly King king was
all prosperous and

Christmassy. It's
really not. The holly

crown is like a crown
of thorns, and the

big belly is like a distended
stomach from starvation.

Now, the body has to be

processed in a very
specific way. Look,

chains have been
attached to his ankles

like shackles. He
wears the Holly King

mask, and the only
symbol is The True Way

triangle on the
chest. It is precise.

Ceremonial. Now,
look at Mihangel's body.

The triple headed
goddess mask has

been wedged on top,
which makes no sense

because he's not the
triple headed goddess.

And the symbols
are just random.

They're scrawled
here and there. It's what

I would do. I just make
up some pagan shit

and draw it on him.
But that's not all.

This is about how
The True Way viewed

other faiths. They
basically pitied them.

Thought they were
stories. Thought they

were kind of beneath
contempt.

So why would they hang
a card around Mihangel's

neck with someone
else's religion?

Because they didn't
know any better.

Because it's not
about The True Way.

It's about me.

What do you mean?

I don't think they did it.

I don't think
they killed Cai.

And whoever did has been

faking the connection
to The True Way.
