I'm trying hard to be
your tower of strength

I'm trying hard to bring you
back to joy

And give you my heart
give you my shoulder

And give you my heart
give you my shoulder...

Where are you going?

What's going on?
You can't leave like this.

I was just trying to be honest.

God!

Ow! Aghhhhh!

Let me out!

Please let me out.

Ahhhhh!

Oh, boy!

Oh... Oh, God.

Please...please...

Emergency. Which service do you
require? My car's sinking. Hello?

I can't get out.
I'm sorry, I can't hear you. Oooh!

The doors are jammed.
I can't get out!

Help me!

Oh, God. Oh, God.

Please!

I've found it.

How long is this going to take?

Er, if you could stay back, sir.

I own this land. And I need access.

I've got building work about to
start here. You live nearby?

Er, did you hear anything unusual
around 11 o'clock last night?

Nothing out of the ordinary.

Is it normal to have
people parking here?

I've given up trying to
stop trespassers.

Ma'am, they've found the car.
There's, er, a body inside.

OK, thank you.

Whose body? If you could just move
over there, please. I have a right to know.

I need to speak to a senior
officer. Yeah, of course you do(!)

Tell your boss, when he gets
here, I want a word with him.

There's tyre tracks

where the car went in the water,

and two sets further up the
bank. OK. Start a fingertip search.

And extend the perimeter, yeah?

Any news on the pathologist yet? Er,

local police surgeon's on his way.

Can you make it a double?
What is it, hair of the dog? More like Dutch courage, actually.

RADIO: 'Next of kin

at the perimeter.'

Well, get them out of sight.

And move the cordon back.

Sir, could you move back?

Extend the cordon.

I'll do that.

Move back, please.

As a highly-respected police officer
with an unblemished record,

you took the law
into your own hands.

You threatened to throw a suspect
off a high-rise building

and jeopardised a murder case.

Do you understand why this
action's been brought against you?

Yes, I do.

SIREN WAILS

Oooh! Sorry I'm late.
I had to make two emergency stops.

My bladder's about the
size of a peanut these days.

It's all right. I'm not an invalid.
Ma'am. And you can drop the "ma'am"

stuff. It's Fiona.

DS Havers. Your parents didn't give

you a first name, then? Barbara.

So what's the state of play?

Er, 999 call from a mobile phone
last night, owned by Edie Covington. We triangulated the call to here.

Divers have recovered a hatchback
and the body of a woman matching

the description.

Next of kin?
Ah, Tim and Millie Sumner.

Cute little girl. But what are
they doing at the crime scene?

They turned up. I kept them behind
the cordon.

And did the husband report Edie
missing? Er, partner, not husband.

And, er, no, the parents did.

Tilda and Joe Covington.

She's been living with them for
a few months. Mmm.

We'd better keep a close eye on him.

There's no point in
doing door-to-doors round here.

Oh, the, er, nearest
neighbour's a local landowner.

Did you get a statement? He
wanted to talk to a senior officer.

When I'm not here,
you ARE the senior officer, Barbara.

I like people who take command.

Yes, ma'am. Er, Fiona. There you go.

It's not that hard, is it?

I've heard you've had your problems
with other SIOs. But don't worry,

we'll get along just fine.

I'll call you in a couple of days.
Take care.

Helen. I'm, er...

providing moral support...
from a distance.

How's it going?

Well, could be better.

Really? I heard the CPS
weren't going to press charges.

I keep my ear to the ground.

Being married to a detective helps.

You look splendid.

Charmer.
No, seriously. You look amazing.

Have you been away? Huh, hardly.
I've been working all hours.

They've decided I'm mad
enough to be nominated for a professorship.

I'm on my way to the last
interview now. That's great.

Congratulations. Let's not hang out
the bunting. I thought I was the cautious one?

You ARE the cautious one, Tommy.

I'm just, um...superstitious.

Hey, we could have dinner?

That would be nice.
Not a celebration, just dinner.

Just dinner. When?

I might have rather
a lot of time on my hands, so...

Tommy, it won't come to that.
You're too good, you know that.

Ah, but do they? Of course they do,
and you knock them dead.

Look, yeah, sorry, I've got to go.

What... Helen? Dinner?

Call me.

I'll even cook if you like.

She's beautiful. But so young.

We'll need to get a positive
ID from her partner. Mmm. It's Edie. There's no doubts about that.

What, you knew her?

I'm her GP.
Tim and I were at school together.

Are you gonna be
all right with this?

I'll draw up the death certificate.
Would you like me to break the news?

We'll deal with it, thanks.

Wouldn't mind following
up that lead, eh?

Her watch stopped at the same
time as the mobile call - 11:14pm.

It gives us an
approximate time of death. We can rule out suicide.

She called 999. Bag this.

So how did the car get in the water?

Oh, our best guess is that it was
rammed several times by a powerful vehicle.

Possibly a four-wheel drive.

That would fit with these tracks.

And it looks like they were
both made by the same vehicle.

So the murder weapon
was a car? Yeah.

I'll check on all the 4x4s
in the area.

Oh, good luck. Everyone has 'em
round here.

You should go home.

There's nothing you could do.

I'm not going anywhere.

I'm sorry, Mr Sumner.
Would you mind following us?

Why? We need you to identify

the body for the Coroners' Court.

An officer will look after

your daughter. I'll take her. I could
look after Millie. No, it's fine.

She's not going anywhere. We'll need
to impound your car for some tests.

This gentleman will drive you
to the mortuary.

I'll take Millie to her
grandparents. The neighbours'll take her. I'll sort it.

How old was Edie? Er, 25.

He must be nearly 20 years
older. What does that tell you?

She liked security?

He likes control.

Given 90% of murders are domestic
in origin, then most women are killed by their partners.

I'll pump Mr Sumner when he IDs
the body. You interview the parents.

If you want to find out how someone
died, find out how they lived.

How they loved.

PHONE RINGS

Hello?

Where are you? Ah, I'm on a case.

A young woman drowned
in a car. Where?

Er, somewhere near Lydd,
on the Kent coast.

It's like the end of the Earth.

Don't tell me they've
rotated you again. 'I've been seconded to...'

Constabulary. Yeah, they've moved me
around a lot since you've been gone.

Er, what is it you want, sir?

I've given evidence in my hearing

and they're going quite hard on this
"unreasonable force" argument.

I need to know
what you're gonna say. Why?

You know what I'm gonna say.

What? The truth. We need to
go through things in detail.

If our stories don't tie up...

Look, um, I'm in...the middle
of a case. I, I've gotta go.

Havers, this is my career?!
Er, you're breaking up.

Just come down, ask for me.

The local force will tell you
where the crime scene is. I'll catch you later.

CD PLAYS

'The mind is like a locked
door. We don't know what we want.

'We don't know who we are.

'If we could unlock the secret
side of ourselves, we could overcome

'all our inhibitions, realise our
dreams, become who we really are.

'Self-belief breeds confidence.

'It compels us to have the
power to set ourselves free.'

Did you keep in
regular contact with Edie?

Every day, because of Millie.

Did you know she was
going out last night? No.

Sounds like Edie was
quite a free spirit.

Edie couldn't be pinned down,
even if you tried. Is that why

you separated? No.

How would you characterise your
relationship? I wouldn't. What?

Characterise it. You were together
five years but you didn't marry?

Edie didn't believe in conventions.
Did you have an OPEN relationship?

Because we weren't married,
doesn't mean we weren't committed.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

And I know that this is a difficult
time, but I do have to ask you some questions.

Um, can you think of any
reason why anyone might

want to harm your daughter?

No. Everybody just always
fell in love with Edie.

Do you have any idea what
she was doing at the lakeside?

Well, it's cos she always loved
it, ever since she was a kid. But I thought that was private land.

It's been commons
for centuries. People used to graze their cattle there.

They swim and walk their dogs.

Then that idiot wants to develop

the land. No, no...

suddenly there's fences everywhere
and we can't get access?!

Er, so the ownership was
a matter of...

TIMER RINGS

..er, dispute?

Is that all? There are still several
questions I've got to ask.

That can wait. My daughter needs me.

And her mother has been murdered.

We have to examine everything
relevant to this offence. That'll mean a search of your house.

Don't you need a warrant for that?

Only if you've got
something to hide.

Er, what time did Edie go
out last night? I don't know.

About seven. She had a yoga class.

And what time did that finish?

At eight. But, um, then Tim phoned
to say he was gonna pick Millie up.

They both looked after her? Yeah.

So it was an amicable separation?

We don't have to
go into that, do we?

Edie and Tim had their problems.

No more than anyone else.

Um, could Edie have gone
down to the lake with someone?

What are you getting at?

Well, I'm told this spot is
known as a favourite for...

for courting couples.

My daughter is dead.

She's not even buried, and
you're trying to drag her

name through the mud already.

Is DS Havers here? Can I see
your warrant card, sir?

Er... Ah...

Sorry, I can only let
accredited officers past. If you could move back.

RADIO CRACKLES

Havers, it's me.
Look, I'm at the cordon.

Can you give me a call, please?
How long is this going to stay up?

I've no idea, sir. Well, are
we talking hours, days? Weeks?

Any of the above.

I need access.

It is a murder scene, sir.
Edie Covington, isn't it?

Tragic.

Boys. Boys. Yeah, all right.
You knew the victim?

By repute.

I do hope the delay
doesn't cause you too much trouble.

Never ends.

Planning permission. Court hearings.
Every lost day costs me money.

So this is all your land, then?

This has been in my family
since the Domesday Book.

Deeds to prove it.

I don't mind peaceful protest.

Mass trespass, criminal damage.

They have to be stopped.

And this Edie Covington,
she was one of the protesters?

Someone stopped her
for good, didn't they?

I meant in court.

Of course you did. And your

house is up here, is that right?
What's your name...and rank?

Detective Inspector Lynley.
Can I see your warrant card?

PHONE RINGS

Sorry. My phone.

What are you looking for?

Er, phone bills,
credit card statements.

Anything which might help
us establish what Edie was

doing before she died.

Er, what's the Trust?

Mrs Covington, we think
your daughter was murdered.

I need to know everything.

It's a clinic.
What kind of a clinic?

Edie was young
when she got pregnant.

Millie's birth was difficult.

She was in a lot of pain
for months afterwards.

She started taking painkillers.

So it was a rehab clinic?

She, what, developed an addiction?
I had no idea.

Not for ages. But we faced up to it.

She got help,

and she got better.

"Eleuthera". Does that mean anything
to you? No. I'm sorry, it doesn't.

Um, it looks like two months ago
something happened.

She cancelled all her appointments.

This came for Edie.

Was Edie planning to leave
the country?

Look, sometimes people can get
trapped in an unhappy relationship, and then someone else... Joe's right.

You're trying to dig the dirt.

Look, whatever Edie did,
she didn't deserve to die like this.

What's his name?

Joshua Holcombe.

He's a musician.

They met years ago when
they were teenagers.

Um...when did their
relationship start up again?

Around the time
she went to the Trust.

I was right about Tim.
Classic controlling type, with a temper to boot.

All we need now is
a match on the paint.

Any news on the marriage
from the parents?

Edie received a new passport for
Millie. So? They weren't married.

And Millie took her dad's name.

But the passport was for Millie
Covington, Edie's name. Maybe she planned to take her away. Maybe.

What else? Er, she had an addiction
to painkillers, and she attended a rehab clinic called the Trust.

Around about the same time
she took up with an old flame, Joshua Holcombe. A lover?

Did you get an addr... Yeah.

Also, I've been on to the DVLA.

Joshua Holcombe owned a Shogun,
J reg, 4x4.

All right, all right.
I asked for it.

I said I liked
people who took command.

See how you like it
in the driver's seat.

We're looking for Joshua Holcombe.
No. No, I've never heard of him.

It's a criminal offence to
obstruct police in their enquiries. Where is Joshua? Oh, you mean Josh?

Sorry, I didn't recognise the name.
Er, no. No, I haven't seen him for a few days. Oh.

I've been on my feet all day.

Any chance of a cup of tea?

Yeah.

Someone left in a hurry.
Always looks like this.

What happened to you?
Er, gardening accident.

Oh, don't tell me.
You trod on a rake.

That's right. What, three times?

FIONA CHUCKLES

Now what happened to
that cup of tea?

So, how long's Josh away for? >

I dunno. I'm not his mother. He's
free to come and go as he pleases.

He drives a Mitsubishi >

Shogun registration J773 BJN.
You know where it is?

No. It's his car, not mine. >

I don't suppose you'd know
what he was wearing last night?

No idea.

Where does Josh...?

And you've no idea where Josh
might be? No forwarding address?

I don't keep tabs. I'm not his
mother. He's a free agent.

You're a pretty free agent yourself.

Interesting vegetation in the loft.
What is that you're growing? It's Josh's domain.

That amount of cannabis will
get you a custodial sentence.

Well, I didn't notice
any plants on the way in.

And I'm sure, if Matt keeps me
riveted with information, I won't notice them on the way out either.

What d'you wanna know?

The body of Edie Covington

was found in her car in Statham Lake.

She's dead?
Yeah. We suspect she was murdered.

So tell us about Josh and Edie.

If you'd met her, it was hard not to
fall in love with her.

Josh even had her name
tattooed on his arm.

So you held a bit of a
flame for her, too? No, no.

Josh would have killed us.

So is that what really
happened to your face? No.

What rekindled their romance?

They shared the same passions.

What for? Narcotics and
prescription painkillers?

For nature. Saving the planet
before it's covered in concrete.

How's that tied up with this?

We know that Edie went to the clinic
for six months. Josh go there, too?

Probably.

Probably? You know what worms do
when you dig them up in the garden?

Squirm. They both went there.

That's all I know. End of. Well,
something happened two months ago.

Edie stopped going to the Trust.
Why was that?

Search me.

They were lovers.

Bet Josh's DNA is all over Edie.

Well, the pathologist
is doing the PM later.

So he goes to meet her last night,
and then just disappears.

Well, maybe Edie didn't want
to leave without the girl.

But Josh was obsessed. Even had
her name tattooed on his arm.

Matt said they were
desperately in love.

Desperate enough to kill?

Mmm.

He's done a runner.
Circulate his description.

PHONE BEEPS

Oh, er, ma'am.

Er, sorry, Fiona.
Er, I forgot to ask.

Um, I sort of said that my
old boss could come and see me.

Tired of me already?

No, it's... Well, it's just
he's up on this disciplinary.

So I hear. For assaulting a suspect.

Well, no, he was protecting
a woman from a murderer. It was reasonable force.

You two have something of
a track record, don't you?

Yeah, well, we were a good team.

Barbara, I don't care what other
police officers say about you.

I'm sure we'll make
a good team, too.

ANSWERPHONE: 'I'm sorry,

but the person you've called
is not available.

'Please leave your message after...'

Ooh!

Well, they're tracking his
SIM card and mobile, so not much more we can do now.

Well, we could check out
the land rights angle.

Yeah, I think that's OK for
background, but I don't think it's gonna turn up our killer.

OK, last round. Collective nouns.

Right, I'll just make some calls.
I'll see you back here in a minute.

OK. Er, what are you drinking?

Red wine. Don't you start.

Red wine it is. Would you please make

sure you write your answers clearly.

And in block capitals.

Oh, and just a quick reminder
that Sheila will be serving

a pie and pea supper for
just £1.50 after the quiz.

You found me then.

I used to be a detective, remember?
We all know that there are herds of

cows,

flocks of sheep
and schools of fish.

But what is
the collective noun for...apes?

Is that troupe?

No, that's for monkeys.

Apes is something, um...

It's less obvious.

Er, a cleverness. No.

Anyway, how's it going?

Um, we've just launched
a manhunt for our prime suspect.

Oh, good. Who?

A Josh Holcombe.

Old flame of the victim.
Gone AWOL last night.

And we suspect some kind of lover's
tiff. Do you mean, um...

him?

Shrewdness.

A shrewdness of apes, that's it.

Where did you get this?
Er, the internet.

It's very good for research.
You should try it some time.

Josh Holcombe and the victim were
protesting against

a development by local landowner

Owen Harcourt-Baines.

Now, the protest turned
quite nasty, ended up in court.

Er, have you interviewed
Harcourt-Baines yet? No, not yet.

Done forensics on his car? No.
But he is a suspect, surely?

I thought you came here to
talk about your disciplinary, not criticise my work.

Sorry. Force of habit.

You know, I haven't
actually got much time to talk. Er, my SIO will be here in a minute.

You've had enough time to think
about that, ladies and gentlemen.

Next question.

You're upset with me for
some reason, aren't you?

Is it something I said? No.

No, it's something you've never said.
Like, "I'm sorry, Havers,

for what happened.

"It must be hard losing your partner
and bouncing around from officer to officer like a bad cheque."

Yeah, I'm sorry.
I've really let you down, haven't I?

Oh, it's not just that.

What else is it?

You're fishing.

Fishing? Don't make me say it.

Look, my new boss is OK.

You've only just started here.
Maybe your reputation precedes you.

No, it's not that I don't get on
with people. I get on with you.

It's not the same with anyone else.

Maybe I could help with
the investigation? No. No. Just informal stuff.

Er, the background
checks you hate doing.

OK. Um, look, I think we're missing
something. Edie went to this rehab clinic until a couple of months ago.

Then she stopped going
and cancelled her appointments

and wrote "Eleuthera" in her diary.
D'you know where that is?

It's an island off the Bahamas.
That fits. I think she was planning to get away.

What forensics have you got?
Excellent. Thanks for that.

Edie's vehicle was rammed by a 4x4.
There should be paint residue.

I'll fish around.
See what I can find out.

Background checks only. Yeah, yeah.
No talking to suspects, OK?

Did I interrupt something?

Er, what news? Er, we're in luck.

They've got a trace
on Josh's mobile phone. Apparently it's still active in the area.

The signal's too weak to get a
precise triangulation, but I think Matt's been talking to Josh.

Better get back to the cottage.
Oooh...

So that's Tom Lynley.

Oh, easy guess.

Dark moody types are
a weakness of mine.

Definitely moody.

So you had your chat, then?

Um, oh, I found this on the internet.

I hope he didn't try and
muscle in on our case.

Edie and Josh were protesting
against the lakeside development. That could be a lead.

Let's not lose the wood
for the trees.

Josh Holcombe was Edie's lover,
was at the scene of the crime,

didn't report it.

And is on the run as we speak.

I'm an easy-going boss, Barbara.

But one thing I do expect...
100% loyalty.

Hello, can you tell me the number
for the Land Registry, please?

No, just text it to me.

You can't help
feeling sorry for him.

One mistake and this
is what he gets. Josh?

No, Tom Lynley.

Is he single?

Well...kind of. Er, separated.

If anyone doesn't understand
the impulse to murder, then they've never been married.

I take it there's no Mr Knight?
Well, this wasn't exactly planned.

There he is.

Why would Joshua Holcombe
come back here now?

I dunno. D'you want me to take
a closer look? Yeah.

I think he saw me.

OK, fasten your seat belts.

This could be a bumpy ride.

DOG BARKS

Get him!

Are you sure this is all right
for the baby? Oh, he's loving it - kicking like crazy.

Hold on.

OK, now we've got him.

What do you think you're doing,
Matt?

I was just borrowing Josh's car.

Well, where did you get it?

He kept it in a lock-up.

What's going on?
Where the hell is Josh?

I've told you, I don't know.

Did you check the car?
Any paint traces or dents?

Yeah, bit of a problem -
no front bumper.

Come on, we'll need to interview you
about the murder of Edie Covington.

"Never was there a story of more woe
Than this of Juliet and her Romeo."

Do you have a quote
for every autopsy you do?

What's better? To see them as pieces
of meat, or fragments of poetry?

Heard you were on suspension. I am.

What are you doing here?
Have motorbike, will travel, need overtime.

What's your excuse? Thomas Lynley.

I've heard a lot about you.
Good things, I hope.

And the bad things aren't his fault.
Great detective work.

Yeah, er, what were you doing
at the lake? Going for a stroll?

Fishing.

Bang goes one of our prime suspects.

Anyway...water takes,
but it also gives back.

The wrinkling on his hands and on
his feet suggest that time of death

may not be too far from Edie's.

Both died by drowning?

Well, both of them had water
in their lungs, but it's not as simple as that.

Ah, I feel a lecture coming on.

All right.

A brief chronicle of death by water.

The classic drowning
goes through stages.

You try to hold your breath
but, ultimately, you start inhaling water,

which is rapidly absorbed
through the lungs, causing

chemical changes in the blood,

overloading the heart until...pop!

The foam on Edie's mouth and
in her lungs is consistent with death this way.

No foam on Josh.

So he was dead before
he hit the water?

There are signs of blunt trauma
to the back of the ribs,

with underlying haemorrhage,
and internal injuries consistent with...a significant impact.

What could have caused the trauma?

What am I supposed to be, psychic?
Give me some options at least.

OK, the bumper of a 4x4?

Yeah, that'd do it.

Thank you, Dr Lafferty.

So we're looking for traces
of blood and paint now.

Much obliged for all your

help with this, Tom, but I think

we can take it from here.

There may be aspects
of this case you're missing. I'm sure there are, Tom.

It's Tommy.

All right?

Look, Harcourt-Baines, the local

landowner, he drives a 4x4.

There are his tracks all over the
crime scene leading to his house.

He owns the land. There are gonna
be traces of him all over the shop.

Josh and Edie,

right, they were trying
to stop him from building a country club right on the lakeside.

They claimed it was public land.

Well, the land dispute
gives Harcourt-Baines motive.

And have you any evidence for this?

Yeah, it was all over
the local papers. Oh.

We're gonna need a search warrant,
pronto. Glad you see the logic. For Tim Sumner.

Look, it must be worth
following this lead.

It's not a LEAD. It's a dead end.

The paint on the bumper of
Tim Sumner's car matches the rammed hatchback.

He found out about the affair
and he lost his temper!

He's now our prime suspect.

The obvious choice isn't
always the right one.

Tommy, I'd like
to remind you that you're currently suspended from duty.

I'll see you in the car, Barbara.

I thought I said background checks
only. I see what you mean. She doesn't listen, does she?

That reminds me of
another detective I know.

I could do some more digging.
Are you kidding?

She'll go spare if she
catches me briefing you again.

When did the disapproval of
a senior officer trouble you? Don't think about it.

Look, look, I'll be more
careful this time.

What have you got to lose?
Havers, please.

Josh and Edie went to a rehab clinic
called the Trust. I know that name.

I called the Land Registry to see if
Harcourt-Baines does own the land.

What?

Which he does. But two months ago
he signed over half of it to this

organisation called the Trust.

About two months ago...they stopped
going. And Edie planned to leave the country.

Where is this clinic?

He is very experienced and
will help you as much as he can.

Yeah, thanks. OK?
Thanks, Eileen. Talk later.

Hello. Eileen Edwards.

Thomas Lynley. I called earlier.

I'm booked on one of your two-day
rehabilitation courses. Of course.

We don't call it rehabilitation.

We call it self-realisation. Right.

Let me show you to your room.
Matthew, can I have the key?

There's a visualisation class in
the Octagon Room after dinner

which you're very welcome to join.

Maybe you'd like to wait till after
our one-to-one tomorrow?

I might just do that. I've never

been to one of these places before.

Oh, well, there's nothing to
worry about, I promise you.

And feel free to use our other
facilities while you're here.

OK. Come on. This way.

Well, how is he?
Holding up. Considering.

So he's fit to be interviewed?

Well, there's no physical injuries,
but he's very withdrawn.

Well, let's see what we can do
about that. You work on Matt and I'll soften him up.

Right.

What'll happen to the girl?

Oh, Millie?
The grandparents are the next of kin. They'll probably look after her.

To lose both parents like that.

It's terrible.

Er, how well do you know Tim?

Fairly.

I must say, I find it hard to
believe. He is a good father.

Oh, well I see it all the time.

And yet you seem to keep
that nice smile.

Er... Um, look, um, thank you
for all your help, Dr Wilson.

I hope we won't be bothering you
again.

Settling in?
D'you have everything you need?

Everyone's been very welcoming.

So what brings you here, Tommy?

Oh, I don't know. I thought it was
probably time to stop and take stock of my life a bit. You know?

Are you married?

There's some hesitation there.

Well, um...we've been going
through some difficulties of late.

Is that why you're here?

Don't be afraid to talk
about personal problems.

Whatever's going on in your life,
this is the right place to deal with it.

That's very reassuring.

How did you hear about us?
It's very unusual to have

such a late referral.

A...a, a friend of a friend
recommended you to me, so...

Really? Who? Where is she?

What's going on?

I've been calling and calling.

Why are you ignoring me?

Have you been drinking again?

Have you heard? They've found
another body in the lake. Calm down.

How can I? There are police crawling
all over my land.

Let's talk about this in private,
shall we? Come on.

How was your love life with Edie?

Remember that NOT answering
questions can be mentioned in court.

At this point the suspect shook his
head. I'll rephrase the question.

Did you and Edie have regular sex?

I don't see what that's
got to do with anything.

Edie was murdered with her lover.
We have forensic evidence that they had intercourse that night.

At this point, the suspect shrugged.
Do we need this commentary?

Yeah, for the tape.

Yes, we had sex.

I loved her.
What more do you need to know?

And you had no idea that
Edie had started a sexual

relationship with Josh?

No.

Why did you run away?

Why d'you think? Hmm?

I was beaten up. My mate's killed.
Not hard to see a pattern, is it?

So, who beat you up?

You're the sleuth...

You tell me. Was it Tim Sumner?

Edie's old man? We mistook
you for Josh. Maybe he did, too.

So you knew Josh was seeing Edie?

What have I said?!
You knew they were having an affair.

No. Just that they met regularly.

You didn't notice any changes in her
behaviour when she met Josh again?

I didn't say that.

I noticed that she...
she laughed more.

She slept less.

The spark was back in her eyes.

And why do you think that was?

Well, she had something to get up
for. She had passion in her life.

You mean Josh? No. I mean the
campaign to save the wetlands.

They were working on it together.
Oh, don't tell me that you weren't jealous of them. Wrong.

You've got it so wrong. I was happy.

You expect me to believe you
didn't mind her spending so

much time with an ex-boyfriend?

One of the detectives virtually
accused me of murdering them both.

Why would they say that? You're not
driving home in that condition.

What did you tell them? Nothing.

I can't take much more of this.
Two people are dead, Eileen. It's all out of control.

No, Owen, you're out of control.

If you'd done your job properly

and got the deeds back...

We looked EVERYWHERE!

You didn't look everywhere
because you didn't find anything. We were disturbed.

If any of this comes out,
you're on your own.

About two months ago, did you notice
any change in Josh's behaviour?

Yeah. Yeah, he was happy.

He'd found something that'd

scupper Harcourt-Baines's plans.

What was it?

He said he had
some documents or something, but he wouldn't show 'em to us.

Have you got them? No.

Well, do you know
where Josh might have kept them? They weren't on his body.

Pretty sure he'd have hid
'em in the house somewhere.

Two months ago, Edie wrote
something in her diary. Eleuthera.

It's a small island off the Bahamas.

I know what it is.

Sounds to me
like she was planning to run away.

Well, just shows what you know.

Don't try and play cocky with me,
I own the copyright.

It's also Ancient Greek.

My Ancient Greek's a little
bit rusty. Illuminate me. Greek for "freedom".

So?

Edie felt trapped here.

Eleuthera's the name of a lighthouse
near the power station where she'd

go when she wanted to be alone.

Everything all right?

Yes.

Fine. I was looking for that
visualisation class you mentioned earlier.

It's upstairs in the Octagon Room.
Of course, you said.

Tommy?

I trust and respect my guests
and I expect them to treat me

the same way.

Of course.

I suggest my client needs a break.

Er, can I have a word?
OK. Five minutes.

Interview suspended at 18:14.

I'm getting nowhere.
What about Matt?

He's no killer.
But he said Josh found something at the Trust and hid it in his house.

That doesn't give us much to go on.

Well, I think we should check it out.

I don't have time to run around
looking for buried treasure.

Matt's having you on. He'd say
anything to get out of here. No, it's more than that.

The Trust keeps coming up.
There's something in this,

I've got a feeling.

Funny feelings may have been
enough for your last DI, but I prefer facts.

Forensics have given us
enough to charge Tim. I think we should go for it.

Mr Sumner,

you knew Edie was going to leave you
and take your daughter away.

You followed her to her rendezvous
with her lover. You saw them,

and then, in a jealous rage,
you rammed her car into the lake and ran over her lover.

No. No, no, no.

We have forensic evidence matching
paint from the front bumper of your car to Edie's hatchback.

We have sufficient evidence
to charge you with the murders of Edie Covington and Joshua Holcombe.

It's me. Um, listen,

I checked into the Trust yesterday.

Um, well, anyway,
Harcourt-Baines turned up last night and he's only just leaving.

You're right, there's definitely

something strange going on.
I'll call you later.

We have a strict policy here.
No contact with the outside world.

Why's that?

This is a retreat...from the hassle
of everyday life. A sanctuary.

Of course. Sorry.

That's all right, don't apologise.

Come on, our session was meant
to start five minutes ago.

Right.

This has been a disaster. I don't

understand. He was granted bail?!
What about the paint?

As his brief pointed out,
he knocked Edie's hatchback a couple of months ago.

The insurance claim proves it.

But what really swung it was the
magistrate had been informed we were

actively pursuing other leads.

He had a complaint from a

landowner, Owen Harcourt-Baines.

Something about intrusive policing
from an Inspector Linton.

Ring any bells?

Well, I'm sure it must have been some
kind of misunderstanding. "Monumental cock-up" springs readily to mind.

If your old boss has blown this
case, I'm gonna have to go upstairs.

But we do have other leads.
As you keep saying.

But this time I've got evidence.

According to the Land
Registry, Owen Harcourt-Baines

signed over the deeds of the
lakeside land to the Trust.

So? Well, Matt said that Josh and

Edie stole something from there.

And there's a lot of money
in this land deal. I think

it could be a motive for murder.

What's the camera for?
Things come out in these sessions.

Sometimes it's good to have
a record. Do you ever use it again?

Only to talk about
any issues that arise.

It's all right.

Anything that comes out here
is strictly confidential.

Then why do you need
to put it on tape?

I'm sensing a little hostility here.

No, not at all. I just, um,

I just like to know
what's going on, that's all.

So it's about control?

Josh thought they'd caught
him stealing it on camera.

He knew they'd come after him.

You'd better not be stringing me

a line, Matt. I'm not. Straight up.

Now, I want you to imagine
you're in a lift.

And you're on the tenth floor.

Now you're going to press the
button, and as you go down floor by floor, you'll feel more relaxed.

There's an offence called wasting
police time. You know that? Yeah.

Yeah, I know where it is.

Well, this had better be good.

You're passing the ninth floor
now...

and you're more relaxed.

You're passing the eighth floor now,
and you feel more relaxed.

And now you're on the ground
floor and you feel totally relaxed.

Are you all right? Mmm-hmm.

Shall we talk about your wife now?
What's her name?

Helen.

You mentioned you've been having

problems. I was wondering

if your need to control and
emotional unavailability caused your wife to leave you?

She DIDN'T leave me.

She...did leave me.

Do you think you pushed her away?

No.

Maybe.

Maybe I did a little.

But you think Helen
should share the blame?

Well, hang on.
I mean, surely...in, in the breakdown of any relationship,

both sides are at fault.
Usually, but we're not talking about who is to blame.

We're talking about the anger
you feel towards Helen for the break-up of the marriage.

I don't think I have any...
anger...towards Helen.

Did you have an affair?

I'm sorry? Did you have an affair?

Look, er,

I, I've got to go. I'm sorry.
Thank you very much.

I've got to go.

You were just getting somewhere.
I think you're making a mistake.

This isn't for me.

You've hardly given it a chance.

I think I have. Really, I'm fine.

To get the best effect, you

have to finish the whole course.

I disagree.
You've helped me so much already.

Told you.

Barbara.

We've got something.

Thanks for coming, Havers.
OK, what's going on? What did you find out?

Like I said, Harcourt-Baines stayed
the night there. I think he's having a nervous breakdown.

Well, Knight's turned up the
deeds at Matt's house. And?

There's a rider that proves that one
of Owen Harcourt-Baines's ancestors

willed the land to the village.

Looks like it was
common land after all.

What I don't get is why Josh and Edie
didn't go public. They could have stopped the building works.

Maybe Eileen had something on them.
What like? I don't know, but they

film the therapy sessions.

Er, I saw a whole lot of stuff in
one of the drawers in her office,

including something on Edie.

You think there could be something
useful in it? It's worth a look, isn't it? OK, I'll get on to Knight.

Um, we need a warrant. And
you...better make yourself scarce.

They filmed my therapy session, too.

You've gotta be kidding.

Um, don't worry, I'll sort it.
Thanks.

It'll be worth a few quid down
the station.

What did they do to you in there?

See you. See you.

I'm sorry, madam, but you can't go
in there without an appointment. >

I'm Detective Sergeant Havers.
I'm investigating the deaths of

Edie Covington and Joshua Holcombe.

Sorry, Eileen. That's all right.

Yes, terribly tragic.

Two young, vulnerable people.

Er, they were both
recent inmates here, yeah?

We don't call our
visitors "inmates".

We call our visitors "guests".

..it's about building up
confidence...

D'you know Owen Harcourt-Baines?

Of course.
He's a great supporter of the Trust.

He's also a fellow investor of
an expensive lakeside development.

Do you have a warrant or
some other reason to be here?

Do you deny that you're involved
in the lakeside development?

No. We have a minor interest.

There's the, um, sustainability
of our project to think of.

I suppose every fraudster
says the same thing.

That's defamatory.

I haven't even started yet.

Right, let's get moving.

Edie and Josh protested against the
development. They attended here then met with a premature death.

I think I'm going
to have to call my lawyer.

I'll need to check your security
camera tapes and the corporate accounts. Don't you need a warrant?

Shall we get started?

Hi.

I, I thought
we could have that dinner...now.

You know you can get these wonderful
devices called mobile phones.

They allow you
to call from anywhere.

Is it a problem?

Depends what you've got in mind.

Come with me.

You'd better have a good reason
for this intrusion. Oh, I'm sure

we'll find something.

Can you open this?

Taping personal therapy sessions.
That must be against every rule in the book.

These are riders from 1589,

ceding the lakeside land
to the people of Statham.

What does that prove?

Owen can't build on the land.

So that makes you party
to the deception.

No, I'm a victim of deception.
I'm just an investor. I don't know anything about this.

I bet you don't(!)
These documents were found in Joshua Holcombe's house.

And still you say you know nothing
about the deaths of Josh and Edie.

So now you're accusing me of murder.

No. I'm asking you what you
were doing two nights ago at 11pm.

Um, two nights ago at 11pm...

I was running
a trust and motivation session.

I think we kept going
till about 2am.

And how many people were you
"trusting" and "motivating"?

I think about 20.

I have their names and addresses.

Was Owen Harcourt-Baines
at this seminar?

We're just business partners.
I can't account for his actions.

He's a...he's a very troubled man.

SIRENS WAIL

The roads are clogged.
Transport system's a bit dodgy.

It's noisy, smelly.

It's basically a...

a sprawling, rusty, chaotic mess,

but I do love it.

Talking of
sprawling, chaotic, rusty messes, are you still driving the Bristol?

Oh! Helen, there are certain
things you cannot say to a...

That car is a slice of history.

So was the plague, Tommy.

Right, car's off limits.

You mean it's beyond a joke?

Yeah, exactly. ..No! Ooh.

Why don't you have some
chips with your ketchup?

It's the only way to eat them.
Anyway, I offered to cook.

Yeah. Yeah, thanks(!) Yeah,
I've sampled your culinary delights.

Oh, you've nothing to fear.
I have now mastered the microwave.

You found the "on" switch(?) Oh.
Very good, that's the way.

I missed your laugh.

There are so many things
I've missed about you.

Helen...
That's Professor Lynley to you.

You got it? I think it must have
been a very difficult decision

for the committee,

but I'm happy to report
that common sense did prevail.

Congratulations! That's fantastic!

Yeah...the perfect excuse
to open another bottle.

Perfect excuse to kiss me,

I think you mean.

So everyone involved with the
development has got an alibi for the night of the murder.

Yeah, all except one -
Owen Harcourt-Baines. Mmm. He'd the most to lose.

He borrowed massively
while signing over the land.

He's probably behind the attack
on Matt and vandalising the cottage.

Well, we can't rule out
a conspiracy by the Trust, to silence Josh and Edie.

We might find
something on those DVDs.

Yeah. Yeah, but look at the murders.

They're too disordered.
Too full of anger.

More like crimes of passion.

Or done by someone
who drinks too much.

Looks like I owe Lynley an apology.
How annoying's that?

Strange.

Well, his car's here.

Maybe the Trust tipped him off.

DOGS BARK

Oh!

Oh, no! Ooh!

What's the matter?

Great timing(!) Oh. Look, er, have

you got the number of your midwife?

Oh, it's no use. She's miles away.

Oh! Go on!

Are you sure? Yes.

Don't do anything heroic, Barbara.
Think of the paperwork.

'..Which service do you require?'
..Ambulance.

DOG BARKS

Hello, my name is Fiona Knight.
I'm 33 weeks' pregnant,

but I think the little blighter
wants to come out now.

WATER DRIPS

CLICK!

A FOX SCREAMS

He lost a lot of blood - we got to
him in time. Have you interviewed him?

No. He's still drowsy on sedatives.

We'll get some sense out of him when
he wakes up.

I admit...

I forged the deeds.

And I even sent some men to...

beat Josh up,

but I didn't kill anyone.

You had motive. You wanted
Josh and Edie out of the way.

Why would I kill them?

Your investigation
ruined everything.

It delayed
the start of the building.

He's got a point.

It wouldn't be in his interests.

Yeah, but we all do things in the
heat of the moment, don't we?

So how's your boss?

I'm fine. My blood pressure was
a bit high and they were worried I may have pre-eclampsia.

But a scan shows that my
placenta's a bit loose, so I need to take plenty of bed rest.

What have you got here? Um, on one
of the DVDs that we found at the

Trust,

we found a session with Edie. It was
recorded two months ago.

EDIE CRIES

'You can talk to me, Edie.'

I don't want to.

'This is a safe place.

'You've nothing to be scared of.

'I can help you.

'What are you scared of?'

I just found out that...

I'm such a mess.

What's a mess?

I just found out that...Tim isn't
Millie's father.

I wondered for years, but...

He made me take a test.

Tim made you?

Tim doesn't know anything about it.

Millie's real father...

EDIE SOBS

It's OK, Edie.

The real father wants Millie back.

What am I gonna do?

You've faced your fear,

now we can work through this.

Looks like I was right about Tim

Sumner all along. How's that? Motive.

Tim was fairly relaxed about
Edie's infidelity, but fanatically possessive about his daughter.

If he'd found out he
wasn't her real father...

No, he's been straight with us
all along.

Sorry, I think
we're missing something else. What about the real father?

Edie said he'd just come back on
the scene.

Back from away somewhere?
I don't know. Just in her life. Maybe the real father killed Edie.

Find the real father, find the
killer. You two are a double act, aren't you?

Right. Er, what, what are you doing?

Well, we'll need a DNA sample from
Millie to check against Josh to rule him out as the real father.

Well, no. Er, Inspector Knight...

Fiona - you heard what the
doctor said. You need your rest.

Barbara, looks like I'm out of the
picture for a while, which makes you

acting DI.

It's up to you to organise
your team.

I'll go to the grandparents.

Get Millie, and get a DNA test done.

What do I do?
Ah...talk to Tim Sumner.

Tell him he might not
be Millie's real father.

Oh...thanks(!)

You wanted to be part of this
investigation, and I am DI remember.

Yes, Ma'am.

I know this must come as a shock. She

didn't tell me - never breathed
a word.

Now, five years ago, before
Millie was born, do you know if Edie was seeing anyone else?

Oh, lads were all after Edie. She
always had plenty of boyfriends.

What about Josh? That was a lot
earlier. Yeah, but could they have met up then?

I think he'd gone travelling.
Look, what does it matter?

I mean, Tim raised her and Tim
loves her. That's all that matters.

Well, finding Millie's biological
father may lead to Edie's killer.

Why are you doing this?
Please, sit down.

Millie's all I've got now.
Sir, sit down.

I need to ask you some more
questions about Edie. I've lost her.

And now you want to take my daughter
away as well. I know how hard this must be for you.

I have nothing left.

Nothing in the world.

I'm sorry...

..but I do need to ask you if you
have any idea who Millie's father could be.

A standard DNA test could take a

couple of days. Our labs will speed
things up.

We'll just be across the corridor.
All I need is a mouth swab.

Come on, Millie.
Go on, Millie, I'll be right here.

Won't be long.

Eleuthera?

That was in Edie's diary.

What's it doing on
Simon's mantelpiece?

I'm gonna check on Millie.

Millie!

Sir, we've got a problem.

What? I'll ask, he's right here.

What's Eleuthera? A place you went
to with Edie?

What's this about? Please tell me
what Eleuthera is. Something's happened. Is Millie OK?

She's disappeared... with Simon

Wilson. Well, I'll take you. Havers!

One, two, three,

four, five,

six, seven, eight, nine, ten...

Simon was a friend. How could he?

I don't know. If he touches Millie.
I'm sure he wouldn't hurt her. He's

murdered two people.

..18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23...

You got back-up? Another 20 minutes.

Millie!

Millie!

I am not good with heights. Don't
worry, I'm here. Don't push anyone

over.

I wonder if they... There it is!

Millie!

Tim, I need you to stay calm.

Millie.

Millie?

What are you doing, Millie?

Look, Daddy, I can see the sea.

Uncle Simon said Mummy liked it
here.

What have you said to her?
Stay back.

Simon. I said stay back! ..And you.

You killed her, didn't you?
You killed Edie.

She was going to take Millie.

I warned her.

She knew I was the real father.
She was gonna run off with her. So you stopped them.

I followed her to
the lake that night.

I'd been calling her but, for
days, but she wouldn't speak to me.

And then when I saw them
together, I realised.

She was never going to...listen.

She had no intention...of letting
me get to know my little girl.

And with her out of the way,
then...

..I could get to know
Millie...be her dad. I'm her dad.

SIREN

Millie, come here. Any closer -
we're going over.

OK. I won't come closer.
I wanna get down.

Simon, we can talk about this.
What's there to talk about?

Look, I don't care what you've done,

but if you're Millie's real father,
you wouldn't want to hurt her.

Please, let her go.

MILLIE CRIES

You're not having her back.

You... Daddy, I'm scared.
..with your perfect partner,

your perfect child,
your perfect life.

You didn't even realise.

I couldn't bear it.
Simon, let her go. I wanna get down. It's too late.

No.

OK. Take her down.

Get an ambulance.

I should have stopped him.
He should be in custody.

There was nothing could be done for
Wilson.

Come on, you saved Millie.

Inspector Lynley is a good officer.

He was protecting a
woman from a murderer.

Two innocent lives
were in imminent danger.

Well, he, he was just trying to
make sure they came to no harm.

So you maintain it
was reasonable force?

Inspector Lynley saved the life
of a mother and her unborn child.

The suspect came
away with no injuries.

I would say that was reasonable.

Do you think he was in control?

They want to see you now. What did
you say to them?

Er, the truth.

Whatever happens, Havers, I couldn't
have a better colleague...

or friend.

I'll never forget this.

Helen. Hi. How is he?

Um, he's only just gone in.

What d'you think will happen?

I, er, don't suppose you fancy a
coffee or something?

Er, yeah. Good.

Exceptional powers are
granted to officers of the law.

These powers do not include
unreasonable force,

intimidation or violence.

We are not passing a judgement of
guilt on your actions,

but deciding if you're a fit
person to hold that position.

Do you understand that?

I do. Yes.

So, how are things? Oh, you mean
between me and Tommy?

Well, are you both...?

It seems to be going well.

I think we're both happy.

I'm cleared.

Marvellous, Tommy. Good.

SHE LAUGHS

Well, done. Thanks.

Look, , um, I'm gonna get off.
Er, I'll see you tomorrow.

Bye.

Shall we go back to your flat?
I don't mind, darling. I could cook.
