DCI Kapoor has
decided to step down.

You know they're
setting you up to fail.

Those files I asked for.

In DCI Kapor's...
I mean your office, ma'am.

Whoa, shit! I'm here
to help you, okay?

One of Crowther's
crew, red hair.

Jock Ferguson.

I saw him through the
cracks in the wash basket.

There was a police officer?

I heard his voice.

Irish accent, talking
about insurance.

Paul. I need
some help in here!

The registrar says it was
likely cardiac arrest.

That name
gave me, John Gibson.

I'm a friend. We
were in the army together.

Micah tells me you
are hiding something.

She's after that
burner phone, Liz.

I'll give you 24 hours.

I saw a nurse.

There's no sign of
him in this recording.

Who has access to this suite?

Detective
Sergeant Jardine.

Don't trust anyone.

He should have been right there.

Just before I come in.

Image looks normal. No
obvious sign of tampering.

Then how do you explain it?

Play it again.

Maybe you're mistaken.

I'm not.

I saw him leaving that ward
moments before I entered

and moments before Paul Brandice
went into cardiac arrest.

It's a cover up.

Wheatley knew the location
for Amy Lennon's interview,

a location that was leaked.

She had control of
security on the ICU ward,

and the security failed.

Her people had exclusive access

to the CCTV suite, and the
footage was compromised.

- That's not proven.
- But it happened.

My remit is to investigate
possible corruption

in your unit.

If I'm to refocus
on Wheatley's team,

I'll need a bloody good reason.

What if we can prove Paul
Brandice was murdered

in his hospital bed
with police collusion?

That's a big if.

You said you tried
to interview him,

but he was too weak to talk?

But he was recovering.

Who knows what he might have
said, who he might have named.

We'll get the full pathologist
report within 48 hours.

That'll ascertain if the
cause of death was specific

to the injuries he sustained.

And the footage?

I'll get my tech
team on to that, too.

Confirm if it's
been tampered with.

And if it has?

Then I'll do what
needs to be done.

How's all this bearing on you?

I'm fine.

Just want to get
to the truth here.

As you said on the phone,

it might be a good idea
if this stays between us.

At least until we
know where we stand.

We can't be sure
how far this goes.

So you focus on
running the unit.

Keep your head down.

Agreed?

Agreed.

Thank you.

- Morning.
- Morning.

We had a call from
DCI Wheatley's office.

An official request to
re-interview Amy McClennan

regarding the safe
house shooting.

Right, I'll handle that.

I was told it was urgent.

Yeah, and I said I'm on it.

Where's this new witness?

Meeting room three, arrived
in the custody of DCI Wilson.

- Amos Wilson?
- Mm.

Alright, well this
should be good.

Lovely to see you, Liz.

And congratulations
on the promotion.

Very well deserved.

Yeah, well next time you
want to give me something

to celebrate with,
try a bottle of wine.

Look, we need to relocate
this guy urgently.

Would you at least consider it?

I did come all this way.

Alright for you Amos,

I will have the chat,
but no promises.

None assumed, DCI.

Mr. Ellis, can you tell
me about the circumstances

that led you to becoming
a witness in the case

against Daryl Fitzwilliam?

The two of you used to
be friends, I believe.

I wouldn't call us friends.

But you are a member
of Patriots U.K.

An organisation in which
Daryl is the leader.

I was unfortunately.

He's a very persuasive man.

You might say that
I was groomed.

Might I?

So you don't agree with
the principle tenet

of the organisation,
which is, and I quote,

the state sponsored genocide
of native British peoples

via the mass importation of
illegal migrants must be stopped

by whatever means necessary."

Violence is never justified.

Does your rejection of
Mr. Fitzwilliams' beliefs

have anything to do with him
discovering your friendship

with his 15-year-old daughter
and his subsequent threats

to kill you?

That was a misunderstanding.

Mr. Ellis, you have a number
of cautions for stalking

and indecent exposure
alongside a conviction

for sexual assault.

I have made some mistakes.

You're on the Sex Offenders
Register for Life.

Is your sudden heroism
perhaps motivated

by a desire to conceal your
extensive criminal record?

I'm ready to help you put
away Daryl Fitzwilliam.

All I ask is for a chance
to make a nice fresh start.

Isn't that a fair exchange?

I wouldn't touch that with a
hazmat suit and a barge pull.

Okay, he pulls his
challenges from a management

- point of view.
- Oh, he wants to get himself

off SOR, and he's a
serious re-offending risk.

Sorry, Amos, it's a no.

Fair enough.

But I should warn you, bringing
him here wasn't my idea.

Who's then?

The regional SEC.

And the impression that I
gained is that he was keen

to make it work.

Very keen.

When do you go back?

Tomorrow afternoon.

- No promises.
- None assumed.

I might just give you a call.

And I hold
the deepest confidence

and optimism in you,

the future leaders
of our most ambitious

and sensitive
policing operations.

Thank you.

Sir.

Acting DCI Nyles,
Protected Person's unit.

Nyles, how are things?

Difficult time to take
over there, I expect.

Yes sir. But I wanted to talk
to you about Patrick Ellis.

I hope you were able
to meet up with him.

I was.

In my opinion, Mr. Ellis will
be near impossible to manage.

As a sex offender, he's a
lawsuit waiting to happen.

Well, as acting head of
the protected persons unit,

you have absolute discretion
over who you accept

into the programme.

Yes, sir. I do.

Still, the home
secretary is very keen

that this case be
brought to trial.

So ensuring appropriate
protection for this witness

is of enormous importance.

I'd like to help,
but I'm short staffed

and without
sufficient personnel,

I can't guarantee the
safety of Mr. Ellis

or that of the public.

- You need more staff.
- I need experienced officers

who understand our protocols.

Someone in particular?

As you may be aware,
a colleague of mine,

DS Raj Kholi, is
being investigated

by DCI Wheatley's team.

I'm not interfering an
active investigation.

No, of course not, sir.

All I ask is that the
evidence against Raj Kholi

is independently reviewed
as a matter of priority.

How about I have a
little chat with her?

Point out the complexities
of the situation.

And I will ring DCI Wilson

and let him know that my
unit will be in a position

to take on Mr. Ellis.

Good.

There's one other thing, sir.

DCI Wheatley's team want to
re-interview Amy McLennan.

To ensure her safety, I need
to manage that on my own terms,

no negotiations.

Seems you and
Wheatley are enjoying

a robust working relationship.

We both have strong views.

I'll see what I can do, Nyles.

Afternoon. I need a
word with DS Kholi.

Sorry, ma'am, he's with a
solicitor right now. So...

Ah, speak of the devil.

Excuse me. You're
representing Raj Kholi,

I'm Liz Nyles. I'm
a colleague of his.

What a coincidence. DS Kholi
asked me to contact you.

Really? I've got
news for him. So...

It seems there's a mobile
phone that's of interest

to the officer's
investigating my client.

DS Kholi asked me to tell you
that he's waited long enough

and now all bets are off.
He said you'd understand.

I need to talk to Raj myself.

DS Kholi said he'd prefer not
to have any visitors today.

I'm trying to help your client.

DCI Wheatley intends to

interview DS Kholi
in the morning,

and I have advised him
to cooperate completely.

Given that you are
trying to help him,

I'm sure you'll
agree with my advice.

Good afternoon, DCI Nyles.

Shit!

You trying to intimidate
me? Is that what this is?

Just following a
directive from me DCI.

Okay, well, tell your
DCI the next time she has

me followed, she might
want to choose someone

with a basic understanding
of surveillance techniques.

We got your crooked mate Kholi.
We'll get you too, Nyles.

Just a matter of time.

Hey, boss.

- How's the drive?
- Security-wise, all clear.

Our girl's not happy, though.

Okay.

Hey, Amy, love.

How you doing in there?

I'm so sorry you've got
to go over this again.

Do you mind, ma'am?

Yeah.

Well, congratulations.

I've never jumped
through so many

unnecessary hoops
in my whole career.

Well, given the leaks, I
think the extra precautions

are warranted, don't you?

No, I think you've got some goal

going over my head on this.

Being followed does tend
to firm one's resolved.

All okay?

Well, DCI Wheatley doesn't
like our choice of venue.

It's better than being
inside that caravan.

Sorry. I know that was
tough for you, Sue.

I really appreciate it.

Do you think I'm stupid, ma'am?

Why would you ask that?

Because I feel stupid.

All that time I
worked with Brandice,

and I didn't even pick up on it.

You told Arun you
thought he was innocent.

At first, I did.

Well, at least I thought I did.

But now...

the more I think about it...

It's hard to reconcile.

You know, the phone call he got

the morning he was shot,

it wasn't the only one.

From time to time, he'd slink
off, take a sly phone call,

it's all a bit mysterious.

Why do you think those
calls are connected?

Did you see the
phone he was using?

No.

It was the way he
reacted afterwards.

You know, like he
was hiding something.

I mean at the time I
just thought, well...

What?

I assumed he was
having an affair.

I butted out because I figured

if he wants to ruin his
marriage, that's his problem.

It's nothing to do with me.

Did you ever ask him directly
who the calls were from?

Once. He said it
was an army mate.

Army?

Sounds like a
bad excuse, right?

Yeah.

Yeah, it does.

Hi, mum.

It's so lovely to hear you play.

Granddad asked me to. Aren't
you meant to be at work?

Yep. Just got to grab
something from upstairs.

Hello?

Hi, it's DCI Liz Nyles.

I was hoping we
could meet up again.

I wanted to talk to you about
your army days with Brandice.

Okay, sure.

Well, how does right
now work for you?

Where would
you like to meet?

I am sorry. I know
you are old army pals.

No, no, I'm...

I appreciate
you letting me know.

Though you could have
just told me on the phone.

I suppose I could.

So why are
we here? Really?

When did you last speak to Paul?

Um, I think I told you.

A week or so before he was shot.

You didn't call him on
Tuesday morning then?

I think I'd remember.

The phone he was using
when he rang you from,

he received several calls
from a withheld number,

most importantly, a call
just before he was shot.

I am trying to figure
out who was ringing him.

Would you like to
check my phone?

I assume that would
settle the matter.

No, some people have
more than one. Paul did.

And why do you think that was?

Usually because a
person has secrets.

Do you have his
phone with you now?

Why do you ask?

No, I'm just curious.

It's somewhere safe.

I assume your forensics people
are giving it the once over,

looking for clues.

Something like that.

And what happens
after they're done?

If Paul did have secrets, do
you intend to honour them?

Depends what they are.

Well, I'm sorry.

Seems that once again, I
haven't been much help,

but please do...
do ring me again if

there's anything else I can...

try to help with.

This is acting
DCI, Liz Nyles.

Force number 0945621.

Can you do a PNC check on
a vehicle for me please?

Sure.

Sierra, Papa, Five,
Six, Tango, Yankee, Romeo.

Okay, gimme a sec.

Yeah, that's registered
to a car hire company.

Smithson Autos Limited.

Are they on company's house?

Checkin' for you now.

Yeah, it looks like it's
registered to a Rezan Crowther.

- Rezan Crowther?
- That's what it says.

You want the address?

No.

I know the address.

What you thinking about?

Whether the
end justifies the means.

Deep.

It depends I guess.

Does it?

Or is that just an excuse?

What's this about?

Work stuff.

You know, the dodgy
bastards we protect

and the consequences of
all the secrets we keep.

Makes you wonder what
it all amounts to.

You start thinking like that,
well, you're in the wrong job.

Are you in the wrong
job, DS Brandice?

Kelman.

Ma'am need to tell
you something.

Something we should have
discussed a while ago.

Regarding the McLennan matter?

I think I've got the
connection between

Brandice and Crowther.

I don't want to talk
about it on the phone.

I could meet you in an hour.

I can meet now if
you come straight in.

There's something
I need to collect,

something you need to see.

Well, if it's
important, I'll wait.

It is, ma'am.

I'll see you soon.

And it's standing room
only for the lake cameras,

and the bidding has
really started to hot up.

But the red team blue team
are trying to make a profit.

Do you need the loo
while we're here?

Okay, as we are here.

Look, now you're here,
why don't you pop up

and get your school books?

Was this your
plan all along?

At least if
your books are out,

your mom might not have
kittens when she gets home.

Okay, but first we watch
end of the show, alright?

You drive
a hard bargain.

Hi, love.

Homework. Just
about to start, okay?

I wasn't
gonna say anything.

Hey, Dad.

I need to talk to you
about something important.

- Mom!
- Jas!

- Someone's been in your room!
- What?

Got to the kitchen.

Go now!

Mom, what is it?

Stay here with your granddad!

Mom?

Your face. What happened?

I'm fine. Are you
two all right?

Yeah, who was it?

I don't know, a
burglar. Just wait here.

Have
you called it in?

You do not mess with my family!

I don't give a shit
who you think you are,

but there is a line, and
you've just pissed all over it.

So I am gonna make sure
you spend the rest of your

worthless life in prison
so that your son grows up

knowing exactly who you are.

- Who the fuck are you?
- What? You know who I am.

You just sent one of your
goons around to my house.

Sorry, what on earth
are you talking about?

What? How did you
get my address?

One of your bent
coppers hand that over?

Dad?

You need to get
back out there son.

And listen to your coach.
You need to pack in tighter.

- Does he know what you did?
- Go.

What kind of a man you are.

You tried to kill
his best friend.

You talking about Amy
McClennan? Serious?

It's bad enough killing
cops, but a 12-year-old girl?

What sort of scum does
something like that?

Oh, you poor deluded, love.
You are so very, very wrong.

I am gonna bring you down,
Crowther. I promise that.

Excuse me, Mr. Crowther.
Is there a problem?

No, no, no problem.

I was just explaining
to the lady

that this pitch is
private property.

So unless she has a
student that's a relative,

she might have to leave.

Mr. Crowther
is correct, Madam.

- Could I ask you...
- Yeah, don't worry. I'm going.

Tell Amy Uncle Eddie
sends his love.

Fuck.

Yep.

Liz, I probably
shouldn't be calling you

about this, but I thought
you ought to know.

What?

They found your
motorcycle man, Jock Ferguson.

What you doing here?

As you know, I have an
interest in this case.

So I've had the fourth
solicitor on the phone.

Crowther's brief
is going ballistic.

Some bastard broke into my house

when my daughter was home.

Break in or not, you've
given Crowther grounds

for police harassment complaint.

How do you imagine Crowther
that got my address?

- Any theories?
- Okay.

Think really carefully before
you say anything else, Liz.

Is that why you had
your lacky follow me?

Liz.

I think you
should get that checked out.

It's affecting your
judgement. Let's go

Crowther had Brandice killed,

and he had help from
a police officer.

Probably the same officer
who leaked the location

of Amy McLennan's interview,
and now Jock Ferguson's dead.

Detective
Inspector Nyles,

you need to get a grip.

No, Crowther is
covering his tracks

right in front of our eyes,
and you're all letting him.

I know you've been conducting
a parallel investigation,

which is so far
out of your lane,

it's in the middle of
the sodding Atlantic.

Paul Brandice was about to talk,

and they shut him
up on your watch.

So who's next, eh?

Okay. Get yourself down
to occupational health.

Get signed off with stress
and take a nice long holiday.

'Cause you've lost
the plot, Liz.

You said you
had something important

you needed to tell me.

Yeah, I did. But the
situation's changed.

Oh, you're not wrong about that.

Now Wheatley is either involved

or she's turning a blind eye.

Either way, we need to move.

No, we do not.

This time, she's right.

I think you better go
home and get some rest.

Right now.

Yeah, I understand that the
window bars will take longer,

but the alarm system
and the new locks.

Let me just
check that for you.

Are you available tomorrow?

Oh, yeah, tomorrow
morning will be fantastic.

- 9:00 AM.
- 9:00.

Thank you.

- So...
- So I'm going to bed.

What kind of burglar breaks
in at that time of day

with the residents at home?

Look, the police have been,
they've made a report,

and I've got a security
company come here first thing.

Liz, is there anything
to do with that poor girl

you brought here?

Have you put your
daughter in danger?

You're retired, Dad.

Now leave it to
the police, please.

Been a long time
since you did this.

Do you think
he'll come back?

No.

He has no reason to.

He's seen we have
nothing worth nicking.

Will they catch
him do you think?

Yeah, I think they will.

The street ends at number 26.

Are you sure you got
his address right?

John Gibson. 28,
Clifford Heights.

Yeah, I'm sure.

So he lives at an address
that doesn't exist,

and the number I've
been calling him on

goes to an automated message
now, it's no longer in use.

Same at his workplace.

No one's heard of Brandice's
good old army mate.

So he agrees to meet me,
and while I'm out with him,

Crowther sent someone
around to my house.

What, day after?

Look, Liz,

I came out here
'cause I'm worried.

Whatever it is that you're
doing, it's getting a reaction.

I know I said I couldn't
help you with this,

but you tell me exactly
what's going on,

maybe we can find
someone who can.

I, uh...

I need to go up to the hospital.

Brandice's full post-mortem
results are coming in.

Okay.

Take care.

I'm not scared of Crowther.

Oh, I know.

Maybe you should be.

Feeling any better?

As can be expected.

That performance wasn't exactly

what I had in mind when I
said keep your head down.

I suppose not.

Look, at this stage,
the post-mortem results

are strictly for
myself and Wheatley.

But contact me later
this afternoon,

and I'll talk you
through anything

that's relevant
to your concerns.

Alright?

I will do. Thank you, ma'am.

Sorry, excuse me.

I'm Liz Nyles.

I was a colleague
of Paul Brandice.

Oh, I'm sorry about your friend.

Thank you.

It was a shock.

I honestly thought
he was recovering.

Yeah. I wanted to ask, did
you see any member of staff

you didn't recognise hanging
around the ward before he died?

A nurse you'd not seen before?

I don't know. I
think it's unlikely.

After he regained consciousness,

there weren't that many
that went through to him.

My staff, obviously, his
wife, and that police officer.

I had to ask her to leave.

Why was that?

She was getting him riled
up, and he'd only just woken.

Sorry, he'd only just woken
up. That was three days ago.

Yeah, that's right. Yeah.

Yeah. I was told he could
barely talk at that stage.

Oh, he was talking, all right.

I can't say he was shouting,
he was too weak for that.

But he was certainly coherent.

What did he say?

I didn't hear him,
but I heard her say

something about duty.

Duty to keep quiet.

Not a bad idea, keeping quiet,
given the state he was in.

Sorry, was that
the police officer?

The one with the phone.

No. The one with the scarf.

Thanks.

What happened?

Forget it.

This is a bit cloak and
dagger, isn't it? Even for you.

Well, last time I tried to
talk to you, you clammed up,

so I thought a bit of
discretion might help.

Are you sure you want
to dig this up again?

Yep.

So Randy's being
transferred into the unit

without being vetted.

I was told he'd already
been independently vetted.

By who?

Someone high up.

Command wanted him in
the unit without a delay,

so I accommodated.

Well, you must
know it was Aaron.

The ACC? Higher?

I don't.

Well, who gave the directive?

The only personal
contact I had was from

your new mate, Kelman.

She passed his file to me

and made it clear
what was expected.

The Amy McLennan
interview location,

the list of officers
who were granted access

was me, you, Raj,
Wheatley, Jardine, Kim.

That's the official list.

Well, could anyone else have
got access, unofficially?

You mean Kelman?

I mean Kelman.

She wasn't authorised
to, but let's face it,

she was running rampant
through our records.

If you asked me, she could
have accessed almost anything.

Well, you
got your wish.

I'm sorry.

The tech team undertook
a thorough analysis

of the evidence against DS
Kholi, and you were right.

He didn't leak the
interview location.

Turns out it was the result
of a targeted cyber attack.

A hacker got into
Kholi's computer

and e-mailed sensitive
information to a burner account

making it look like
he leaked the location

of Amy's interview.

What's happening to Raj?

The evidence against
him was concocted,

so he's being released

and reinstated,
effective immediately.

Right, if there was a hack,

then our digital
records are compromised.

We'll need to carry out a
complete cyber security review.

I already gave the order.

Liz, I can see the pressure
you've been under here.

If you want to step
aside, take some leave,

I can find someone to say...

No.

Yesterday I was rattled, I know,

but I want to stay here,
help sort this problem out.

Well, I've spoken to the ACC,

and he's okayed me
to personally assist

in whatever way I can.

So you're not alone.

You'll also be relieved to hear
that the postmortem results

show that Brandice
died from his injuries.

No evidence that he
came to further harm

whilst in the hospital.

So let that put
your mind at rest.

And CCTV?

No sign of tempering.

So we can focus on
the task at hand.

Good news. Right?

Such just shame you couldn't
get any sense out of him

before he died.

If only he had told
you what he knew.

Agreed.

But as I said, we ought to
now concentrate on the real

and present threat
from Crowther.

Brandice was your colleague,

but leave the murder
investigation to Wheatley.

You've enough to do here.

If you say so, ma'am.

What's happened?

I'll tell you outside.

One of Crowther's
men lifted the phone

before I could hand
it in from my house.

That's how I got this

- From your house?
- Yeah, it gets worse.

We know you didn't leak
Amy's interview locations.

That means another
police officer did.

No, they said it
was an outside hack.

- I'm not buying that.
- But why not?

If Kelman's people
say it's hack, then...

Kelman's the Mole. It's
been her all along.

Liz, I know, I'm not
thinking straight

after what I've been
through, but come on.

Kelman lied about Brandice.

She said he could barely
talk when his nurse said

they were having an argument

and now she's just told
me to stop digging.

Okay, so this isn't our
problem. She's connected.

She's the ACC shadow.

Exactly. If she's involved, I
don't know how high this goes.

Yeah, so even
if you are right,

look at what they did to me.

You said they broke
into your house.

Who knows what they'll do next?

- Hey, Sue.
- She's gone.

- What?
- Amy, I can't find her.

When did you last see her?

Uh, 10... 10 minutes
ago. She was right here.

Have you alerted HQ?

Yeah, of course, full
code red protocol.

Okay. Stay where you are.

Wait for the search
team to arrive.

She can't have gone far.
I'll be there in 20.

Are you coming?

Yeah.

Sue, anything?

How did this happen?

We'll find her.

So, you turn down offers
of extra assistance.

You insist on keeping
custody yourself,

and then you bring her here?

The location wasn't the problem.

We followed all our protocols.

Oh, your protocols. Right.

And where do your protocols
say she is now then?

I don't know.

Everybody who was at that
safe house on the day

of the hit seems to
be turning up dead.

Well, let's pray we can
find that poor girl, eh,

before she ends up the same way.
