All language subtitles for The Crow Girl.S01E05.WEB.H264-RBB

[Jeanette] Oh, my God.
It's Martin Ryan.

I've spoken to your father.

He called the station
a number of times.

[Deborah] You must know
Lou Stanley.

He runs that little boxing club.

[indistinct]

I can't do this.
I'm sorry.

Why did you ask Ursula Wilson
not to press charges?

Is this what you've
been stewing on?

We found the body.

Is it possible
to speak with Victoria?

[Ben] She's our other daughter.
She's dead.

No death record
and she's dead.

Her parents
never told anyone.

Victoria Burkeman.
Is she dangerous?

Where you're going,
there is only pain.

[ominous music]

[child coughing]

[Victoria] When I
was very small,

I learned that
all people live their lives

in two different worlds.

One is a prosaic life
and the other poetic.

But only certain people
have the ability

to move between the two.

In some early cultures,
revenge was a duty.

A fundamental right
that gave the victim

the opportunity
to regain respect.

[Man] In!

Coming.

[Man] Now!

[aggressively]
I said I'm coming.

Retribution marked
the end of a conflict

and the right to vengeance
wasn't questioned.

[music intensifies
climactically]

[pigs squealing]

Not everyone
is cruel, you know?

Some people are trying
to do the right thing.

To be kind and gentle.

And good.

Even if it makes you feel
sick to your stomach.

[ominous music]

Even if it hurts.

[Jeanette] Stop there.
Roll back.

Let's see outside
Carl Lowry's room.

Can you bring up
the other images?

See. I told you
she was a woman.

Do you think this person,
this woman we're looking at,

could be Victoria Burkeman?

And how does this
connect to the others,

to Drake and White?

Maybe they're involved.

Maybe they got Victoria
to do their dirty work.

Didn't want him to squeal.

Victoria Burkeman, what else
have you got on her?

[Mike] Well, she accused her dad
of sexual abuse

when she was younger.

But that case got dropped

due to
her psychological evaluation

that determined
she was lying.

Ben and Mary
were pretty explicit

when they said
that she was dead.

Maybe they're lying.
What else?

She was kicked out
of Beecham college.

There she is.

[Lou] Wonder if Drake
was at the school then.

[Sophia] Jeanette.

-[Jeanette] Hi, come in.
-[Sophia] Hi.

[Jeanette] This is
Dr. Sophia Craven.

She's kindly agreed to come in
to help us understand

what Victoria Burkeman
is up to.

-Welcome.
-Thank you.

We know that Victoria
went to Beecham College

before she was kicked out.

Did she tell you anything
about the school.

People who go
to that kind of school,

they have a parent
who has a plan for them.

Oxford, medical school,
the military.

And what kind of plan
did Victoria's parents

have for her do you think?

Sex.

Victoria made allegations
of sexual abuse

against her father
when she was young.

The Burkemans, they were
cleared of any wrongdoing,

but the psychotherapist that was
evaluating her at the time

thought she was lying.

That's right.

And does that tally
with any of your assessment?

Well, for Victoria
to make a complaint,

that's atypical.

Now, I can believe
that Victoria is a fantasist,

someone who would create
alternative realities.

That does occur
in this kind of victim,

but I don't believe
that she lied.

Victoria is a victim
of abuse.

Do any of these look like
Victoria Burkeman to you?

Um.

[ominous music]

That's Victoria.

I just know it.

Okay.

Okay.

Lou, let's pay Mum and Dad
another visit.

I'm on it.

[Jeanette] Mike, we've got
the first body's name.

Now let's try
and ID the others.

Everyone else,
find Victoria Burkeman.

[pigs squealing]

[doorbell dinging]

Ben.

Problem?

No problem.

I realized I'd forgotten
to ask you a few questions

about your daughter, Victoria.

We were just passing,
so we thought

we'd pop in and ask you both,
if that's okay?

Why did you lie to the police
about your daughter being dead?

I didn't lie.

Our daughter
is, very sadly, dead.

[Lou] Really?

How did she die?

We asked the police
many, many times

to help find her body.

We assumed she died in relation

in relation
to her own mental issues.

Well, that's funny 'cause we
have no record of that.

How'd you think
she died?

Suicide.

She had a history
of drug abuse.

Drug abuse and self-harm

are not in any of her
psychiatric evaluations.

Well, if you're having
psychiatric evaluations,

something's up, isn't it?

Did you kill your daughter,
Mr. Burkeman?

-No, I didn't.
-Mrs. Burkeman?

No.

What were you doing
when Martin Ryan disappeared?

As we told the police
at the time,

we were at a funders event
for Victoria's school,

and many people
can corroborate our attendance.

The police have
all this information already.

Do you think Victoria
could've killed Martin?

They were friends,
but it's possible.

Did you abuse your daughter,
Mr. Burkeman?

-No.
-Mrs. Burkeman?

Absolutely not.

There were
some serious allegations

made against you
at the time.

Why would Victoria
make that up?

Well, she could be
quite devious and cruel.

Unfortunately.

Was a bit
of a fantasist.

Our daughter
was a very troubled young lady.

Mm.

Just can't shake the feeling

that you're lying
to us, Mr. Burkeman.

Well, that's not my problem.

I know
that my conscience is clear.

We did our best
for Victoria,

more than our best,
and it's very sad,

painful,
to keep raking over!

So if you don't have
anymore questions,

I've got plenty
to be getting on with.

How is Madeleine?
Is she okay?

Mind if we say
a quick hello?

Are you abusing
your younger daughter

now, Mr. Burkeman?
Mary? Huh?

[Ben] Leave Madeleine
out of this!

Come on, get out!

You crone.

You think
he's abusing Madeleine?

I don't know.

Those two made my skin crawl.

[Jeanette] Mm-hmm.

What do you wanna do?

I wanna get child protection
in there ASAP.

Good. I'm in no hurry to go back
to the house of horrors.

[cellphone ringing]

DCI Kilburn.

[Ursula] It's Ursula Wilson.
We spoke before.

[Jeanette] Yeah, I remember.

[Ursula] I heard Carl Lowry
is dead. Is that true?

Yeah, that's right.

I'd like
to talk to you.

-You at home?
-[Ursula] Yeah.

Right. Okay. Um, I'll come now.
Don't go anywhere.

Bye-bye.
Sorry, Lou.

Uh, I've gotta go
and talk to Ursula.

Why?

Mm, she thinks she's
remembered something

and she'd prefer to talk
to a female officer.

Ah, right.

I don't think it's got anything
to do with this.

I mean, she's just a victim.

I'd call her a survivor.

Do you want a lift

or do you want me to get
uniform to pick you up?

Ah, I'll make my own way back.

Crone.

[Jeanette] "Crone."
Cheeky bastard.

Amar. You ran off.

Sorry.

You wanna talk to him,
you pay him, yeah?

Sorry, mate.
It doesn't work like that.

-Who are you?
-I'm a police officer.

And I need to ask Amar
some questions. It's important.

[Besim] Fuck it,
let's go, man.

Hang on.

It's bad,
but I'm really glad he's dead.

It must've been a shock.

I did, like,
a little dance,

like, a "Fuck you" dance.
Right here.

Okay.

I actually wanted to, to talk
to you about something else.

Yes?

Lou.

DI Lou Stanley.

Right.

-Is that okay?
-Yeah.

-[Ursula] You don't seem sure.
-Go ahead.

Okay. Um.

It started off
him looking out for me,

kind of an "Uncle Lou"
type of thing.

And then...

And then we started
sleeping together.

And I just felt,

"Here I am, again,
getting fucked."

When I thought back
to how it happened,

I realized the only reason
he was able to get to know me,

to get me to like him,
to trust him,

is because I was a victim
of a crime.

He was police
and I was the victim.

And he told me he was trying
to solve that crime

and protect me from
anything else bad happening.

How did he say
he was protecting you?

Ehm, he said
he beat Lowry up.

Smashed his teeth in.

And then I realized,
now Carl Lowry is dead,

the only person
I need protecting from is Lou.

There's no one to protect me
from Lou because he's police.

Except maybe someone like you.

Me?

[Ursula] Unless you're
his best mate or something.

Look, between you and me,

I just don't wanna have
to have sex

with the police officer
in charge of my case anymore.

Is that too much to ask?

No.

Leave it with me.

I am leaving it with you.

I'm trusting you.

Good.

[Mike] Do you recognize
any of them?

Let me see.

Yeah.

[Mike] How'd you know them?

They're like us.

Do you know their names
or what happened to them?

Daniel and, uh, Faisal.

This one's Samuel.

Were they all
in the same hostel?

Do you know
their surnames?

Amar, what happened
to your face?

There are people
who have opportunities

for people like us
to make money.

If you are weak,
then you sell drugs.

If you're not afraid,

you can fight.

[Mike] Do you fight each other?

[Besim] Boy against boy.

And what happens
if you lose?

[scoffs]

So who organizes
these fights?

The British.

[Mike] Are any of these men
at the fights?

Watching?

No. We don't know
who they are.

Look, this is
a murder investigation.

It's important.

If something happens to you,
no one will tell your families.

The Home Office
doesn't have to.

No one will know.
You'll just disappear

like these boys.

Family.

What do you know
of my family?

What has already happened
to me here!

This country
does not care.

Nobody cares.

We're done here.

All right.

Thank you
for the information.

Look after yourselves.

Half is mine.

Nothing is for free.

There's a police officer,
he helps the boys make money.

What's his name?

Come to the station. Please?

[television running]

Hey, Joe-Joe.
How was school?

Hi, Mum. All good.

Great.

Hi, Dad.

Oh, it's love.

Where's Alex?

Uh, no clue.

I, uh, tried to call you
the other day.

Yeah, I know you did.
And you called Verity.

Sorry I didn't stop
police procedure

to call my dad back and get
his take on things.

There's been
a lot going on.

But you found Martin, right?

Dad.

There's no way you could've
found that body back then.

It's just not possible.

I was supposed to find him
and I didn't, so...

I actually wanted to ask you
a bit about the case

if that's okay?

Oh, well,
maybe I'm busy now, hey.

[sighs] Go on.

Do you remember Ben
and Mary Burkeman?

They had a daughter, Victoria.

Uh, yeah,
I remember her.

She was a very sad
little girl at the time.

We could barely get her
to speak.

What about the Ryans
and the Burkemans?

Were the families close?

Were the Burkemans
ever suspects?

Did they all have alibis?

Yes. They all had alibis.

And, of course, we investigated
everybody thoroughly.

[exasperated] We even paid
to get some searches done,

but there was no leads,
no witnesses, no evidence.

Martin was,
he was just gone.

I believe you, Dad.

You were
a really good police officer.

Too good, maybe.

How'd you mean?

Well, I grew up, thinking
all police were like you, Dad.

[Brian] In what way?

What happens if you know
something about someone

that could destroy everything?

[sighs] Christ.
[scoffs]

What's he done?

-Who?
-[Brian] Alex.

Um, I'm not talking
about Alex, Dad.

Oh, Jesus.

Listen, I'm really grateful
for all your help.

I really, really am.

But I, you know, I can't have
Joe hearing

what you think about his dad
every five seconds.

It's not, [sighs]
it's not fair, Dad.

I know exactly what it's like
to be in the job,

but I always had your mum.

She was there for me, for you,
so I could focus.

You need to focus.

You are at a critical stage
in this inquiry.

You can solve it
or blow it

and Alex, why,
he's gone fucking AWOL!

I mean, where is he?

Dad, keep your voice down,
please.

Joe's not deaf, okay?
Please? Please stop.

Yeah, I'm, I'm sorry.

All right? I'm sorry.

[television starting]

[music]

Uh, Jeanette?

Uh, she's done
for the day.

Well, I have some test results
that she wanted.

But I can come back tomorrow.

Uh, you can tell me
if you like.

Uh. Yeah, okay, fine.

So, all right,
so after the postmortem,

we can see
Lidocaine in all three bodies,

but it wasn't
the primary cause of death.

So, body two,
cause of death:

mostly likely internal bleeding
caused by a ruptured kidney.

Body three, cause of death:
a surface bleed on the brain

consistent with
blunt force trauma.

-Okay.
-Now, body one,

this is its brain tissue here.

-Daniel.
-The bo...

Um. Okay.

Well, this is
Daniel's brain tissue.

It's an enlarged image
from Histology.

It shows that the bo...
Um.

That Daniel had a traumatic
diffuse axonal brain injury.

That's just many tiny injuries
to the brain

often caused by consistent
and repeated blows to the head.

I met a witness today

and they said
that all three boys

were probably involved
in illegal fights.

Okay. Yeah, well,
all three

show defensive
and offensive injuries,

so that will track.

And one more thing.

Body three:

we found human tissue
between its teeth.

I'd ran a DNA test

and the DNA was a match
for Daniel.

So now we know
how he lost his finger.

Yup.

My findings, they're consistent
with what your witness...

-Amar.
-With what Amar was saying.

If these boys were involved
in very brutal fights,

then they were, in fact,
fights to the death.

[concerning music]

And you are welcome.

[Mike] Thank you.

[Alex] Jeanette?

I suppose
we need to chat.

We do.

But, please,
can it not be tonight?

Can you please listen to me
about work

and tell me what to do?

Of course.

It's Lou.

I found out he's been having sex
with a victim.

What?

Yeah, he was assigned
to a case

and he's used the opportunity
to have sex with her.

[whispers] Fuck.

I know.

-Okay.
-I mean, I feel

really, really let down.

I've known him
for such a long time

and I feel like
I don't know him at all.

Maybe I did know him.
Maybe I knew what he was like

from, from the start.

I mean. And I ignored it.
Is that possible...

Some people
are really good at hiding.

He has a really convincing
hardworking copper act.

I bought it.

No, he is
a really hardworking copper.

That's the thing, you see.
That's not an act.

That's what's clever.

-So what are you gonna do?
-I don't know what I'm gonna...

[Alex] Jeanette.

This is exactly
what you're good at.

Standing up for what's right.

Your whole career,
you've always done what's right.

Can't stop now
because it's Lou.

No.

-Hi, my love. Hello.
-[Sophia] Hi.

[fast affectionate kissing]

Wow, everything all right?

Yeah. I feel good.
Really good, actually.

I talked to Annabelle today.

-[Sophia] Mm?
-And we managed to have

a really good
and very adult conversation.

And agreed that, um...
So she knows about us now.

You and me.

I told her all about you

and how we actually wanna
do things properly,

and be together properly,
not just in secret.

Okay. Um.

I didn't ask you
to do that.

Well, if you had to ask me
to leave my wife,

it wouldn't be right
between us, would it?

I'd be
the won't-leave-his-wife guy.

Well, I thought
it was what you wanted.

No.

Sorry, it's not.

You're saying
you want a headfuck?

-You want distance?
-No.

[Lance] What, so you want me
to lie and cheat

so that you
don't ever have to decide

how much you care about me?

Poor Annabelle.

Poor Annabelle?

Poor Lance, you mean?

See, this is why men don't do
the right thing, you dick.

It's humiliating.

You are humiliating me.
For what?

Okay.

Lance, I'm sorry
you feel like this.

You've also lost the ability

to talk like a normal person,
by the way.

It's all
just made-up psych talk.

I'm sorry you feel like
this is

a very fucking annoying thing
to say to someone who's upset.

Okay, should we
just go for a walk somewhere?

Am I a dog?

[cutlery slams]
Jesus...

[obscure ominous music]

-Hey.
-[Sophia] Hi.

Sophia.

What are you doing here?

I actually don't know
what I'm doing here.

Oh, shit.
I'm having the worst night.

What's happened?

I mean, do you wanna come in?

Everybody's asleep, but I can
sneak you in for a cuppa.

I just met up with Lance

and he's broken up
with his wife for me.

Bastard.

Yeah. No.

Well, he...

[chuckles]

I think I just,
I didn't expect.

-I didn't want that to happen.
-I didn't realize.

[Sophia] No,
he didn't either.

And so he ends up
just sort of shouting at me

in this bar,
and I was embarrassed

by all these feelings
coming out.

It was so public.
It was just public.

What, you think he can
patch things up with his wife?

Well, I would hope that she
sort of doesn't wanna do that,

but, you know, Lance,
he's, he's okay

as a person, I think.

-Right.
-Yeah.

-I just don't... There's no...
-Yeah. Connection.

Yeah.

Anyway, um, thanks.

[sighs]
It is mad that I'm here.

And, um, [chuckles]
I hardly know you

and, uh, you're married,
so I'm gonna go home now.

I must've just needed
to talk to someone,

so I came here
on autopilot,

thinking, "Yeah,
she'll understand me."

I do understand.

Nobody wants to be adored
and shouted at in a bar.

No.
[Jeanette chuckles]

[somber music]

Ah, Eva came in last night.

Last night?
What time were you here till?

[sighs] I don't know.

Her postmortem report
on your desk

shows that the cause of death
was consistent

with injuries
from fighting.

I'll have more
for you shortly,

but, um, there's something else
before everyone else gets in.

I've got a witness.

He said there's
a police officer involved.

-Mm.
-I think it's Lou.

Why do you think it's Lou?

Because it is Lou.

You know,
when you join the police,

the whole
Peelian Principle thing?

Police are the public,
public are the police.

Policing by consent,

that's what we're supposed
to be doing, yes.

[Mike] Lou isn't into that.

He's a sheriff,
not a police officer.

He thinks he's the law.

Look, why does everyone think
he's a good guy?

-He's clearly not.
-Okay.

[ominous music building]

Thank you for coming to me.

Don't talk to anyone else,
if you don't mind.

Just give me some time to, um...

There are procedures, Mike,
okay?

Yes. Understood.

Fuck.

Hi, Madeleine.

How are you?

Victoria.

Can we, um,
can we go somewhere?

How's school?

Uh...

It's, it's a good school.

I know.

Even the really thick kids
do okay.

Exactly.

Everyone wants
to go to uni.

Do you?

Not sure.

You could take
a year off.

And do what?

Recover.

From what?

Your life so far.

Yeah.

I know what he does
to you.

He did it to me too.

You do know I'm your sister,
don't you?

So what did you do
about it, then?

I escaped.

Yes. You did.

Meet me here
tomorrow morning.

Early.

We'll go away together.

You can escape too.

And I'll make them pay.

Will you "have your vengeance
in this lifetime or the next?"

Is that Gladiator?

Yeah.

Cool.

I'm serious.

He should be
very afraid of me.

Okay?

Are we really sisters?

Yeah.

[emotionally stirring music]

[Mike] I'm ready.

Can you tell me
what I'm looking at?

So, body one,
it's Daniel Rexha.

Age 17 from Albania.

Body two:
Faisal Qureshi,

21 years old,
from Afghanistan.

And body three:
Samuel Osman,

18 years old, from Eritrea.

All three
of these asylum seekers

have been in the UK
for under two years.

Daniel Rexha was living
in The Royal Hotel,

Faisal and Samuel

were living in a hostel
on the outskirts of Bristol.

Poor lads.

I've got a witness that can
confirm that all three boys

were involved
in illegal fights.

And how did you
identify the bodies?

The witness did
from the hostel.

He gave me their first names

and I pieced it together
last night.

Wow. That's great work, Mike.

People in those places
don't usually open up

to policemen.

Yeah, I worked really hard
to, to gain his trust.

Can he testify?

-It's not likely.
-Why?

He's got a lot going on.
The immigration stuff...

This kind of witness
is exactly what we need.

Can you just
bring him in, please?

-Okay.
-Hello, hello.

Afternoon.

Oh, I forgot to ask you

if Joe-Joe wanted
to go to football this Saturday.

It's gonna be
a fantastic match.

Uh, I'm not sure,

but thanks for the invite.
I'll ask him.

Well, I'll take that
as a yes.

Well, let me just
double-check with him and Alex.

Well, I can call Alex.

I'll call Alex. It's fine.
We're just working.

Mike's updating us
on the case.

[Lou] So what'd I miss?

[Jeanette] Mike's named
all the boys

and he's bringing in
a witness.

Ah. Nice one, Mike.

A-star.

I'm gonna go back
to the hostel.

You want uniform
to go with you?

No. No, I'm good.

[Verity] Come in.

I have about five minutes.

Have a seat.

Shoot.

I'm concerned
about a colleague.

I suspect them
of wrongdoing.

What genre?

Criminal. Professional.

Sleeping with a witness.

Involvement in organized crime.

Perverting the course
of justice.

[sighs] Possibly.

It's a dangerous path,
reporting a colleague.

It's a male colleague,
I assume.

Yes.

It's getting in the way
of the case.

You know, it's one
of my skills

navigating the field?

I stay still and quiet
most of the time,

but, sometimes, I have been
really screaming underneath.

The question is

when to raise your voice.

I think I've turned
a blind eye

often enough
for the both of us.

We're entering more
of a say-what-you-see era.

-Right.
-[Verity] If you can nail him,

nail him.

But if you miss,

he will drag you down
with him

and never let you go.

I don't want
to nail him.

We've worked together
for years.

Well, in that case,

I'm glad we've had this
important and informal chat.

We can't all be pioneers.

And if I do
want to arrest him?

Keep your hands clean.

Let professional standards
handle it.

[sighs] Thank you, ma'am.

[seagulls chirping]

This is Mike. Police.

I'm gonna need keys
to Amar's room.

-Second floor.
-[Mike] Thank you.

[foreboding music]

Shit.

Fuck.

[television running]

I'm heading up.

[volume increases]

I won't let you
do it anymore, Dad.

I know all about Victoria.

But guess what?
She's taking me away.

We're gonna look after
each other.

[Ben grunts]

Madeleine. [pants]
I won't let you leave.

You belong to me, you see.

Victoria isn't just your sister.

She's your mother too.

[effort grunts]
[Madeleine screams]

[loud thudding and crunching]

[haunting humming]
