Original subtitles

You took the baby. You SAVED the baby.

You were so brave. What, just me?

You didn't come forward.

Come forward for what? A load of fuss?

Finn, do you remember my mum, Molly Marshall?

The body of a man was found in a lift

in a flooded underground car park.

I remember there being four cars beyond the lift.

Second to last one was red.

The whole place is empty.

I've lost the key.

Give me your number, and as soon as I find it, I'll ring.

Jo Marshall? Tasha Eden. You called me about my brother.

He died May 5th 2019.

How did you get the idea that that man here was your brother?

This does means that your brother faked his death five years ago.

That's him, that's him, that's Daniel there.

Alex Welland? How do you know? Nanta.

He called me Nanta, I called him Danta.

There's your man from Nanta. Lee?

Lee! It's me, it's Tasha!

I can't believe it! How long has it been? It's...

It's been a while.

Yeah, wow! Tasha, what are you...? What are you do...? Sorry.

Sorry. You two know each other?

Right!

I've known Lee since... forever.

Yeah. As long as I can remember.

Yeah, I'd come and visit, and there would be the three of us -

you, me and Daniel.

You know Daniel Eden?

Y-Yeah.

Yeah, I do. Why? Why, is everything OK?

Do you remember the last time you saw him?

I hadn't seen him for a while.

How did he die?

Enquiries are still ongoing,

so I can't disclose anything right now.

What does that mean? It means someone killed him.

Tasha!

But we don't know who or why because the police are being shit.

Well, they are!

They don't care about Daniel.

None of them are lifting a finger,

apart from Jo.

So, you're investigating Daniel's death?

Look, I know that this is a lot to take in, but it'd really help us

if you could just answer a couple of questions.

Like, why was Daniel going by the name Alex Welland?

You what?

So, now Daniel had a fake name, yeah?

I don't know anything about that!

I don't!

How come you're here, then? In his office?

Because I was looking for him, obviously.

I was worried.

It turns out I was right to be worried. OK.

So, why were you looking for him?

We worked together sometimes.

You know Daniel faked his own death?

No, I didn't.

You didn't wonder why I haven't visited in the last five years?

Course I wondered, Tasha.

But what you have to understand is...

Sarge?

Yeah, it turns out you're needed back here.

DCI Roy's been asking for you.

'He's going all guns blazing on the Lift Man case.

'He's just sent half the team out

'chasing down IDs from the E-fit appeal.

'I'm not sure what that's gotta do with you.'

Er, I'll-I'll head back.

Right, Tasha, we have to go, right now.

And, Lee, we need to talk more.

Here's my number.

OK. Thank you.

Pat is outside, so we need to go,

or I'm looking for a new job and possibly a new husband.

So, you go. I'm going to Lee's.

Daniel was living there. He says I can take a look around.

No, I don't think that's a good idea.

I don't care if you think it's a good idea.

Oh, shit.

'You have one new message.'

'Hello, there!

'It's Chris. Chris from the car park.

'I'm calling about our locked room mystery.

'Finally got it open.

'I think you're gonna enjoy taking a look inside.

'It's a proper head-scratcher.

'Anyway, come by any time today, see for yourself. Ta-ra.'

Hiya.

The river wall was breached here last time.

Without the right defences, with more rain coming,

higher river levels, the town will flood again.

Which will kill off the whole new development.

So, come on, defences.

What do we need to do?

Hey, Molly, hiya. What brings you here?

Hi. Hi. Hiya. Hiya. Sorry.

Sorry. Erm, that flood fund money...

I know you said you were gonna transfer it...

it's just getting desperate.

Yeah, I'm sorry, it ju... It slipped my mind.

It's all right, no bother, no bother, it's fine.

Sorry, is that a... a recent weather report?

Yeah. According to the, er, doom merchants here,

we're due more flooding in... how long?

These storms will be with us in the next four days.

Oh, but that's no time!

It'll be a catastrophe if it happens again so soon.

Yeah, which is why we're gonna fix it because if we don't fix it,

and the town floods again, my investors will pull out.

So, how do we stop it?

By building a ten-foot high levee here, to be safe.

But you'd need sign off from the council to do it.

Good luck with that (!)

So I need to take this to the Town Hall?

Ugh, speaking of total incompetence,

there's, erm...

something that I have to just deal with.

Deepa, Roy hasn't said anything, has he?

About why he wants me? Roy wants you?

That's a no, then. Why? What's gotten you so jumpy?

In the team room, two minutes.

Marshall. PC Marshall?

Yes, sir. You wanted to see me?

Right.

According to Sergeant Mackie, you're experienced, clear-headed,

about to waltz through your CID course

and know Waterside like the back of your hand.

And I need the extra help, so you're temporarily assigned

to the Murder team until I say otherwise.

Briefing in the team room, now.

Well, go on, then. You heard the man.

You can use Pat's desk for now.

Mr and Mrs Double Act, eh?

OK, some of you already know trainee detective Jo Marshall.

She grew up around here,

so she'll be using some of that local knowledge

to help us with Lift Man for the foreseeable -

who we still don't have an ID on.

We know from the post-mortem he was likely in a fight the day he died,

so did anyone see something?

Hear about a fight breaking out?

We've got a mobile contact point down the town centre

we're trying to fill with friendly faces.

That should hopefully encourage people

to come forward with information.

This is not a large community.

We have people out there who saw what happened

or at least know something about who's responsible.

And these are the people we need to be speaking to to catch our killer.

Now, on Lift Man himself,

it's looking like he was dead for at least two days before we found him.

We know the body wasn't waiting in the lift all that time,

so the obvious theory is that our killer

used the flood to cover their tracks.

Which is good news for us.

A false trail is still a trail.

So, where was the body moved from?

Why leave it in that particular underground car park?

Who had access?

We have people following up on the two names

we haven't eliminated yet.

That's Alex Welland and Jon Clyde.

Daniel Eden's still on the board for now, but not a priority.

Sorry... Why's that?

Because no-one domiciled in Waterside has come forward to say

they know anything about the existence of a Daniel Eden.

We have the word of one woman, passing through from France,

who also thinks our E-fit man has been dead for the last five years.

So I'd suggest we focus on the leads with a few less obvious holes in.

I want you on the phones following up on the homeless Joe Bloggs.

You know the area. Call round anyone you think

might point us in the right direction.

Everyone else, start looking online -

social media, local news,

anything you can find on Alex Welland and Jon Clyde.

Whatever's out there, let's find it.

'Have you had any other visitors in the last few days?'

Just missed a few, actually.

Erm, Tasha Eden.

You said a few?

Oh, I know, I didn't get another name.

Erm, she was with a man and another woman.

A pregnant lady.

Sir?

Yeah? I think I've found something.

Er, I went on Tasha Eden's Facebook profile.

I mean, there's a few Natasha Edens, but...

if that's the woman that came in to the station,

then he looks a lot like our E-Fit.

I think it's The Lift Man.

That's her.

That's her.

Did you bother typing her bloody name into Google?

Yeah! This didn't come up. She's a nutcase.

She doesn't even live over here.

Is he even the same bloke?

I think so. Looks like him. Shall we find out, then?

Follow it up. I'm guessing it's Daniel Eden. I could. I...

No, you're meant to be working the homeless Joe Bloggs angle.

I need the people working for me

to follow the leads I put in front of them.

Just do the job you've been given

and stop looking for something more exciting.

Or this is exactly what happens - things slip through the cracks.

Sorry, sir.

Actually, er, there was one more thing.

I was there, at the car park.

Yeah, I remember. First on the scene.

Right. So, do you remember a red car?

In the crime scene photos, there's three cars,

but there was a fourth, a red one.

I just... I thought maybe I could go and speak to the caretaker about it?

I mean, it's a small thing, but might be important.

Well, if it's not in the photos,

that's a very small window for someone to have moved it.

It would've happened practically under our noses.

I know, but I saw it, sir.

OK. Tell one of the others.

I don't want you poking around a crime scene.

Health and safety, it's just easier on all of us.

Then maybe I'll head to the mobile contact point.

Yep, go for it.

Back in the trenches already?

You, er, fancy a break from all this?

Cutting corners at this stage will only cause bigger problems

down the line.

Whoo, what? Bigger than the whole town flooding again?

We're taking every possible step.

Come to my office. I remember you said that last week,

right before the town centre washed away.

I'm trying to explain that we need to act now, OK?

We need to build a ten-foot levee, right along the river wall.

We've talked about this!

And we can't go ahead with something like that

without consulting the proper parties first -

the Environment Agency, the Highways Department,

a consultation with the public... By which time, it'll be too late!

I mean, don't... don't you people get it?

We're gonna get another downpour, OK, only this time,

it's gonna be a hell of a lot worse! Just give him a straight answer -

will the council build a flood wall or not?

It's not that simple. Jack, look...

It's just four days. We simply don't have the time.

Do you know what, I... I'm... I've just had it with you lot.

I really have, this is ridiculous. I'm wasting my breath.

Was there really any need for you to get involved in that?

No, I-I just popped by to hand in my application to run for council.

So...

look forward to working with you.

Doesn't make sense.

The caretaker asked me to meet him here today.

He was really keen on talking to me. So, where is he?

Maybe he got his shift wrong.

Or he's a massive time-waster. Mm.

Found it!

This is the room he wanted to show me.

I'm guessing this isn't what you expected.

There's nothing here.

What?

Why would they clean one room when they haven't even hosed the muck off

the sides of the building yet?

Maybe the cleaner hasn't gotten to the other rooms yet?

Gotta start somewhere.

What, and they just happened to start with this one? Nah.

Is this what your caretaker thought was weird,

or do you reckon there was someone else here,

and they moved it or something?

'You've reached Chris Robinson.

'I'm sorry I can't take your call right now.

'Please leave a message.'

Hi, Chris? It's PC Marshall.

Can you give me a call when you get this?

You were supposed to meet us. OK, thanks.

I think I'm gonna have to call this in. And say what?

There's nothing here, and you ignored a direct order

and came to look around anyway?

Everyone's thinking that our murderer was being clever,

letting us think that The Lift Man got caught by the flood,

using that to cover their tracks.

But what if that wasn't the plan?

If the flood wasn't part of the plan,

then our murderer's the one who got caught out,

probably trying to take the body out the building. Exactly.

The lift's jammed,

it's filling up with water, the doors won't open.

They'd have to escape.

All right?

Gibbo. I didn't know you were on shift.

When you took over from me here the day after the flood,

do you remember a red car?

Parked just there? Went missing after they found the body.

Don't ring a bell.

Do you wanna check the scene diagram? Mm.

Is this where they found the body? Yeah.

Yeah, you see. It's not there.

Fancy a break? We'll cover you.

Great, that'll do.

You're not gonna climb up there, are you?

Nah. Don't be daft.

Just looking. Good.

Because I'm enjoying having a partner

who doesn't have a death wish.

Well?

They'd leave the body in the lift,

climb up to the next floor...

God, that'd be scary.

You'd have to be strong and fast.

But, yeah, you could do it.

Not very sociable, even for you.

Mm.

It's not Daniel's kind of place.

Yeah, well, he only stayed for a few weeks.

You know, I understand if you don't want to tell the police

about whatever Daniel was doing with the lies

and the fake name and the fake death -

it's fine, I don't care.

But this is me. I know, and I told you.

He said he had to have a clean name for the new business.

And I didn't know he'd pretended to be dead,

of course I didn't!

Right. So, you just never asked about me?

Because I was being lied to!

Now, clearly, he had something going on

which neither of us knew about.

I mean, if he'd told me what it was, then...

Fuck.

Hey.

You were always looking out for him.

He used to look out for me, too.

Getting me out of trouble.

I know I caused a lot of headaches, OK,

but I used to look forward to those visits all year.

I bet you used to dread them.

Daniel's annoying little sister, flying over...

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, total nightmare, weren't you? Jesus.

Listen, erm...

..I know where he kept some of his stuff.

There might be some old photos up there, if you wanna have a look.

What the hell would Tasha Eden be doing at Alex Welland's office?

According to her, she was looking for Daniel Eden, not Alex Welland.

Bloke at the desk was agency staff, so he couldn't tell us much.

Was there any sign of anyone else?

Just those two - Tasha Eden and the mystery man.

Right, let's shift all our focus onto Alex Welland.

What's this... What's this business of his, NANTA?

According to the paperwork, it's a remediation company.

Undoing environmental damage, cleaning up contaminated land.

It's all very green.

Chase up if Tasha Eden has any connection to the company.

I wanna know what she was doing there.

See if we can fast track that DNA test.

If she's been lying, she's got some explaining to do.

Thank you.

What the fuck? Shh.

Sh.

Just stay here, OK? It's fine, just stay here.

What the hell, Jo?

It's the same car. The one from the car park!

See? there was a red car. I wasn't making it up.

It's the same one? You're sure?

Yes.

It's the same make, same bumper sticker.

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.

Yes, should be fun. Love the outfit.

Sorry again. Just a misunderstanding.

They're going to a fancy dress party.

They've never been inside Jack Radcliffe's building,

and half of them are under ten,

so I think we can rule them out of our enquiries.

Look, what's this all about?

I dunno, I...

Oh, I think I just wanna prove myself

before I have the baby.

Prove that I'm such a great detective.

Yeah, you can do that after.

Yeah, it's just...

this case isn't gonna be there after, is it?

And I'm on the right track, I know I am.

I just wanna solve it before this one comes out.

What do I know? But...

I think you should calm down a bit.

Mackie certainly thinks the sun shines out of your arse already,

and everyone else knows you'll be great.

You've got nothing to prove.

You sure you're OK?

Yeah, thanks.

What?

I was just thinking.

If my dad could've seen that, he would've pissed himself.

Can I help?

Course you can, darling.

Be my guest.

There you go.

Ooh!

You don't have to keep things going up here if it's too much.

We can look after it.

Oh! Oh, no, no, no. I'll... you know.

And thank you. I'm...

I do want to. I'm just...

..I'm just having one of them days.

Who is that?

Sorry, hang on.

Oh, hiya.

Hi, Molly. Oh!

OK. Right.

I didn't expect to see you up here.

I'm so sorry to hear about your gran and grandad.

Oh, thanks, Molly.

Listen, if there's anything you need,

or anything your mum and dad need, just...

Yeah, they're not here. Probably not for a few days yet.

Oh.

Have you got a kettle in there?

To Gran and Grandad.

Yeah.

Mmm.

So...

How long are you planning on camping out here?

Not long. Just till the inquest is over.

Oh, love.

That could be a while.

I'm meant to be at uni.

I mean, an inquest is pointless, isn't it?

There were a massive great flood.

That's what happened. We all know that.

It's gonna keep on happening

if people round here don't do something!

That's what I've been saying.

That's exactly what I've been saying.

We need proper action, now.

Right, I mean we all know the flooding's got worse

ever since they agreed to that

Uplands Eco Housing Development being built!

What did they think would happen

when they just rip out the earth and replaced it with concrete?

Where did they think the water would go?

Well, hang on, no. The whole point of that place

is that it's eco-friendly.

Why, cos the logo's green and he's stuck a few solar panels up?

Look, that doesn't offset the fact

that Jack Radcliffe's flooding the town!

They just say the right things and people fall for it.

How's it eco-friendly?

Well, I don't know.

Look, I'm not a bloody construction expert,

but trust me.

I know Jack, and he's furious about the floods.

I mean, to be honest, with Sarah Mackie on the council,

it wouldn't surprise me if she's cutting corners somewhere.

Yeah... on the Uplands.

No, look, Jack was with me today at the town hall,

arguing for better flood defences.

It's not a coincidence.

I think that if we actually looked for it,

I bet we could find some proof.

Babak? I might have something for you on the Lift Man.

The, er... The caretaker. I know, he's a bit...

But according to him,

there's been some changes in the building

since the body was discovered.

Locks changed, things cleared away.

Just might be worth looking into.

I would, but it's not where Roy wants me, so...

Yours if you want it.

Cheers, Jo.

Your Tasha Eden find seems to be panning out, by the way.

She was poking around Alex Welland's office this morning.

Roy's all over it.

If she is Daniel Eden's sister, then we might have an ID.

What?

I was there this morning. With Tasha Eden.

He's gone. What was that about?

Are you in some kind of trouble?

No!

No, it's just to do with work.

I can handle myself, you know, Tasha.

The only person I'm worried about is... is you.

I just want the truth about Daniel.

I know.

And I've told you what I know.

Here, I wanted to, er...

I wanted to show you something.

OK.

So, this was, erm...

This was last summer.

Oh, look who's on there.

We've got a few quid,

so we'll get a few pints in, Billy, do us right up.

'Big fat bastards' time, isn't it, eh?'

'Too fucking loud, mate. Be sure to pass on the message.

'Right, listen. Gary, we're starting a new job tomorrow, yeah?

'It's an early start. Want you there at six o'clock, OK?

'On the dot.' 'Be there, or you're done.'

He means it as well. I fucking mean it.

He does mean it. All right, mate.

Hey, come on.

You know, that time you thought he was dead, there was...

..there was no big conspiracy.

He was just... He was just living his life.

I'm sorry.

You can't trust this Tasha not to dob you in.

Keep on pushing them towards Daniel Eden,

it could rebound on you. Badly.

'C'est Tasha.

'Laisse moi un message, mais je l'ecouterai peut-etre pas.

'Ciao.'

Look, I know this all seems like I've gone off on one,

but I knew this was a murder, I just...

I know my instincts are right.

I just need to figure out how it all fits together.

I can't believe you found your hero and didn't tell me.

I can't believe he knew our Lift Man.

You shouldn't be doing that!

All right, I'm just saying,

they're gonna wanna know why we ran this.

Young offender. He's got previous when he was 16 for damage,

a few for public order.

Some fights. I mean, there's nothing in there to suggest

he's potentially mixed up in a murder.

Not exactly the record of a hero, though, is it?

Got the DNA results back.

Our dead man is Tasha Eden's brother.

Yeah.

Find out where she's staying. Bring her in.

Pat?

He's not back yet!

Good day?

Oh, you know.

Erm... Kelly, you know that office building of Jack's?

You know the bloke who looks after it? Chris something?

Chris Robinson. Mm.

You heard all about that, then?

Turns out he were making some extra cash on t'side

renting out these parking spaces. Only, t'flood put paid to that.

Cars all ruined.

Jack found out, and he were fuming.

Went over especially to fire Chris in person.

Whole big barney.

Wait, so this all happened today?

Mm. All before my second coffee.

And of course, Chris storms off home.

None of the proper handover.

Not even handed in his security pass.

So now Jack's like a bear with a sore head,

and there's another thing on my to-do list.

Still, tonight will be a nice distraction.

Tonight?

Baby shower.

Pat not told you?

I'm trying to give the place a good spritz

before people get here.

A baby shower? Erm... no. No-one told me.

Jo? Are you back?

So, I hear congratulations are in order.

You're on the team.

Right, yeah. Yeah. Bit of a surprise.

How's it all going? Did you find out anything interesting?

Not really. You?

Went down to the docks...

to check out Alex Welland.

Evening. Hi. Erm, do you know what -

I think I might actually need to...

..prepare myself a bit for this baby shower.

Have a lie-down. So can we just catch up later?

Yeah. Yeah, go on.

Erm, was that Alex Welland you were talking about, with Jo?

Hiya, are you OK?

Come in, just go t'left. Are you all right? Hiya, you OK?

Look at you! Hiya.

You OK?

Suzi! Oh, my God.

Oh, you look absolutely gorgeous. Thanks.

Kelly. Kelly. Who's that?

Suzi.

For t'baby shower.

Oh, you're throwing SUZI a baby shower.

Yeah? Right.

Right. Oh! Did you think it were for you?

Jo, you should have said if you wanted one!

I don't want one, I don't want this one,

I just didn't wanna be rude...

In fact, she won't mind - Suzi! Oh, God. No!

Suzi, come here. How d'you feel about Jo joining?

I don't wanna join you, all right?

It's bad enough this is happening in my own bloody house!

Well.

I'm so sorry about this, Suzi.

Kelly, in there. No...

OK, will you just...

I OK'd it. I didn't even know if you were gonna be here.

I shouldn't have to book!

I tried to talk to you about it, but you were God knows where.

Oh, come on, Pat, she's taking the piss, and you're helping her.

You wanna talk about taking the piss?

Why don't you tell me everything that you know about Tasha Eden?

Who d'you think it was who found out she was at the docks?

And who's this bloke that you've been with? No-one!

I don't... I don't know who you're talking about... Oh, my...

It's just that I am so close to something...

Close to what? I don't know exactly!

But I think... maybe there's an organised crime link...

You are not a detective, you're just running around,

playing at being your dad.

I...

Jo...

Argh!

Tasha! Finally.

I've been trying to get hold of you.

'I know, yeah. I'm sorry.'

Are you all right? 'No.

'No...' OK.

Look, right, where are you? 'At my hotel.'

I'm on my way.

Modest as ever.

So, what're we looking for?

What does a French drain look like when it's at home?

I found the plans for the development,

and according to this, there should be detention basins and ponds here.

You know, they hold off the run-off water you get

when you concrete over a hillside.

If you don't hold it off, then it just runs off down into town.

See? It's on the original planning application...

but I don't see 'em here.

Yeah. Well, I mean, they're still working on the place.

Maybe they'll, you know, put 'em in later.

Just, erm...

go and have a look round, and, er,

give us a shout if you find anything, yeah?

Yeah.

Shit.

Shit, shit, shit...

Lee?

What are you doing here? I'm, erm, just waiting on Tasha.

You? Same.

She's, er, she's gone down to the station.

Don't suppose you know why?

Yeah.

Yeah, she's gone to identify Daniel's body

now they believe he's her brother.

Ah.

Hm.

Are you all right?

Yeah.

Yeah, it's just, erm...

It's just a bit strange, all this, you know?

Mm. You?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Listen, I wanted us to talk. Now seems as good a time as any.

Why did Daniel change his name to Alex Welland?

Look, either you spent three years working together

without ever finding out

why he used a different name on all the paperwork,

or you're about to lie to my face again,

in which case, let's not bother.

OK, yeah, I did lie to you earlier.

But that's because my head had just come off.

You'd just told me he was dead.

Then Tasha arrived out the blue from nowhere.

Yeah?

Look...

..me and Daniel, we both have criminal records, all right?

From when we were younger.

And then one day, he arrives with this new ID.

Alex Welland.

Said he'd bought it, so he could get new business grants.

And you believed him? Of course I believed him.

It made sense. It was clean. But then...

..then he made Tasha believe that he'd died.

Some... freakish holiday accident or something.

Why?

He said he wanted a fresh start for the company.

So he made his own sister grieve for him, to help his business?

I know. Believe me, I wanted to tell her, but...

..he's family.

And I just...

I didn't wanna get involved in it.

Look, you need to go down to the station

and make a statement about all this.

Go down and ask for DCI Roy.

Yeah... I ain't doing that.

You know I don't have to ask you?

What?

Tasha told me how you two met.

And how you would lose your job if anybody found out.

So it's not just me who doesn't wanna go down to the police

and tell them everything, now, is it?

I thought he was your friend. Jo...

I have a past, and I do not want the police digging into that.

They wouldn't be interested in that.

Look, if I knew anything that would make a difference,

I would've told them.

Dan looked after all the money for NANTA,

all that side of things.

And I don't know if he was always planning on it,

or if it was him dealing with whatever he'd got mixed up in,

but all I do know is that over 100 grand is gone. Yeah?

Every single penny of it is gone.

And I worked so hard for that, you know?

To change things.

To...

To build myself a better future.

And I thought that is what we were both trying to do.

And now he's left us with nothing.

Of course I didn't tell Tasha that.

I don't want her to know what a dickhead her brother was.

I still can't believe he's done it, you know.

Is this your brother, Daniel Eden?

Yes.

Would you like some more time?

I'm done.

Yeah, look, I'm sorry about before.

It's just been a shock, you know...

..learning about Daniel.

You know, I never really had any family

when I was growing up as a child.

Dan was the closest thing I had to a brother.

Even though he was getting me into trouble half the time.

See, I'm an only child.

Never had anyone to lead me astray.

And my dad was a detective,

so I've always been a "straight and narrow" kind of girl.

What?

Nothing. It's just... you make it sound so boring.

It's not like you're just leaping into floods or anything like that.

Is your dad why you joined the police force?

Yeah.

He must be really proud of you.

He passed away, couple of years ago.

But, yeah, he was.

I think about him a lot, actually.

Especially at the moment.

Tasha?

Tasha.

Oh, look, I'm so sorry. Hey, Tasha.

Tasha?

You shouldn't be by yourself tonight, all right? Mm.

I want you to get your things and come with me, OK?

All right.

'You have reached your destination.'

Chris? Are you in there?

It's PC Marshall, from the car park.

No... No! Chris! Hey, Chris!

Oh!
