(Laughs)
SUSAN: You're not gonna forget me?
Go!
(Gunshot)
♪ Happy birthday to you
- Mark! - I told you he'd remember my name!
(Laughter)
Is that your dad? I know him.
My name's Michael.
- Dad! - Joe!
David!
- No! Come on. - Come here!
I've got a family in need of a safe house.
Want to take them? Yes or no?
Yeah.
KATY: Robert still can't understand how it happened. He thinks she died because of him.
MARK: He's been fixating on the past.
Sam, please call me when you get this.
Someone came after Joe.
I just want to make sure you're safe.
Large amounts of cash going in and out.
Where's David getting all that money from?
No, don't!
Stop! Somebody help me!
Please, no!

(Birdsong)
Hi, Joe.
All right?
You coming in?
(Sighs)
- How long you here for? - A few days.
On holiday, are you?
Yeah, we're staying over at Tarrock House.
We're really enjoying it, aren't we, Dad?
Yeah, really.
We're here on holiday.
- Where are you all from? - Manchester.
- No school? - Er... it's half-term where we're from.
- We're from Manchester - which part? - (All talk at once)
- One at a time, come on. - They're doing their best.
MARK: Still no sign of Sam?
No, but this is definitely Sam's car.
Are we any closer in ID-ing the bloke who tried to abduct Joe?
Michael Collersdale.
His DNA was on David's clothing from the attack in Blackpool.
Drug dealer.
Operates in the Northwest, mainly.
He'd spent the last eight years in a prison in Malaga.
What's his connection to Sam, then?
Drugs.
I'm wondering if Collersdale was Sam's supplier.
- Sam crosses him, ends up owing money... - (Phone rings)
Goes on the run, ends up in his car.
Yeah?
All right.
They think Sam's been sighted - attempted shoplifting three miles up the coast.
Let me know where.
ROBERT: Don't worry, learning a script takes time.
What if they don't get it?
They will.
Have you seen my keys?
- I'll see you later. - Bye.
Were you shot?
The scars?
Yeah, a long time ago. I exercise to keep the muscles strong.
Did it hurt?
Yeah.
Can you show me the bullet?
(Phone rings)
I'm sorry, Joe, I've got to take this.
We'll do it later, promise.
Yeah, hello?
We've identified the man who attacked the family - Michael Collersdale.
He might possibly also be Sam's supplier.
That's why he went after the kid?
- At the moment, it's the best we've got. - I'll talk to them, see if there's anything else.
You haven't forgotten how?
Just send me what you've got and call me in an hour.
I'm not doing this again.
Will you sit down, please, David?
When Louisa spoke to Sam yesterday, he told her he was still at university.
- Have they found him? - What's happened?
- The university hasn't seen him in seven weeks. - Why not?
Nor have any of his friends or any of the people at his student digs.
We know that Sam was cautioned twice for possession with intent to supply.
Drugs? No.
No way!
We also know that Michael Collersdale, the man who tried to take Joe, is a drug dealer.
Was this the man?
Has this bastard got Sam?
Michael Collersdale is targeting your family.
You need to help me find out why.
(Faint police radio communication)
(Exhales heavily)
(Car door closes)
Sam Blackwell?
Police!
Please! No, please, please!
I'm a police officer, you idiot!
All right?
- Are you OK? - I told the school I felt sick.
It's not easy, all this.
I just need you to be here while I get Sam.
- I'm coming with you. - He's gonna get Sam!
- David, I can't let you leave the safe house. - He's my son.
You need to see him, I understand that. Sam is fine, he's unhurt.
But you have to stay here.
Come on, you.
Don't worry, Dad, Sam's OK.
He won't be when he gets here.
Dad!
He'll be all right. (Exhales)
Shall we get everyone some lunch?
Joe, do you want to give me a hand?
(Crockery clattering)
Put these in there and put them on the table.
- All right? - Yeah.
So what did he say?
That his car was smashed up by some blokes he owed money to.
- Who? - His exact words: "No comment."
- How much? - No comment.
What for?
You're doing a fine job, DCI Maxwell.
- I suppose you think you can do better? - No, I know I can.
Hello. I'm Robert.
- Are you police? - I used to be.
I presume you've seen these?
And you've seen this?
Well, this guy did this to your father.
He's also murdered somebody.
The longer you keep saying, "No comment," the longer it's gonna take to catch him.
I need you to talk to me, Sam.
OK.
Me and me mate, right...
we started making GB at uni.
What's GB?
You know, liquid E.
We just let people know, and sort of word got around.
It just kind of happened.
Then we got asked to make some more.
To be honest with you, I didn't really want to do it, but me mate,
he thought, "Brilliant!"
So we get given five grand, right?
Five grand to get set up.
But me mate, he just er...
...he just fucks off with the money.
So, you know, I tried to pay it back...
...but this guy, he didn't want the money.
He wanted me, he wanted me making the drugs.
And it wasn't him?
- No. - You're sure?
I'm sure.
Right, thanks.
We're all gonna be together.
That hasn't happened in a long time.
One big happy family, having the holiday of a lifetime.
(Knock at door)
We do as rehearsed.
Hello? Katy?
Sorry, Megan.
You're lying. I know you are.
You're pregnant.
No, no. I would've told you.
- We didn't tell anyone. - You told me at five weeks.
MEGAN: Well, apart from you.
It's just the school said you were sick.
Excuse me. Sorry.
We're now thinking of going up one of the mountains.
Do you have a proper map?
Of course, yeah. I'll be right there.
- Have you ever been sailing before? - No.
- I can book him in tomorrow, if you like. - I'm not sure...
- What's your name? - Joe Watkins from Didsbury.
It's a pleasure to meet you, Joe Watkins from Didsbury.
- We'll see you tomorrow? - OK.
- Are there any other guests? KATY: It's the whole family.
- Other kids? - Yeah, he's got a big sister.
Sister? Cool, she can come too, if you like.
KATY: We'll see what she fancies doing. She's a bit old for that.
(Text alert)
- Can I take this? - Yeah, yeah. Do you believe him?
Yeah, I do.
In 2003, Collersdale does a six-month stretch at Strangeways.
When his dad was a prison officer there.
OK.
Hey, thanks for this.
- (Dom panting) - Phone.
I don't want to hurt you, Dom, but I will. Your phone.
Don't look back. Look at the wall and count down from 100.
Like hide and seek.
100.
99, 98...
...97, 96, 95...
You know, we don't know the full story yet.
Kids do stuff.
David?
What?
What? Tell me.
What?
Wh...
Sam's gonna be here soon!
- Where are you going? - Up a mountain.
It's what people do here.
(Door opens)
- The phone. - It's Dom, my boyfriend.
- Now. - I need to talk to him.
- Why does he want to know where you are? - Please, they're all private.
Is this true?
Come with me.
(Phone rings)
Yeah?
Louisa's boyfriend, Dominic Twyler,
threatened with a knife about half an hour ago, had his phone nicked.
- Collersdale? - Without a doubt.
OK.
Well?
- Can I tell Dom that it's all OK? - (Text alert)
Talk of the devil.
"Where did you go?" Can I text him back?
Promise you won't say where you've been or what you've been doing.
Yeah, I promise.
Oh, it looks like your brother's here.
- I won't be long. - OK.
- Where's Louisa? - She's upstairs.
Hello, I'm Katy.
- Her boyfriend's been attacked. - What?
Louisa! Dom, he's been attacked!
- Is he OK? - You let her contact him?
She needed to. It was important.
Collersdale will know it's gonna be blocked.
- Tell him you want to meet up. - What?
It's the way to find out where he is. Come on!
(Sirens blare)
Hey.
Look at you!
You've lost so much weight!
So someone tried to kidnap you?
- Was that fun? - (Chuckles)
If I'd known you were that important, I'd have put you on eBay to get money for you.
Where's David?
He went for a walk to clear his head.
I wondered why I was still alive.
- Do you know where? - Up the mountain.
(Panting)
David!
You need this.
People die of exposure up here.
You're so full of it.
Sam's back at the house.
He's safe.
How is he?
He's terrified. He knows he's let you down.
- Did you get kicked out of uni, then? - No.
Well, not yet, anyway.
They could have put us somewhere nice and warm.
Thailand would have been all right.
(Panting)
Can you tell me about Strangeways?
What about it?
You worked there?
- For a couple of months. Why? - When?
I left at the end of 2003, I was transferred.
Michael Collersdale was there in the summer of 2003.
You think I knew Michael Collersdale?
Yeah.
Do you have any idea how many cons I've met in the last 20 years?
- So you didn't have any dealings with him? - No, I didn't.
If I did, I would tell you. Is that clear enough?
They looked through your bank statements.
They know you received large amounts of cash.
So?
- £2,500 on October... - It was for personal use!
- Another £2,500... - Look, I borrowed some money!
I know how much you earn. I know your bank loans, I know your credit cards...
I didn't get that money from Michael Collersdale.
OK, so where'd you get it?
Who's this Michael Collersdale, anyway?
He's after Dad.
- Were you frightened, mate? - Course he was frightened!
That man just stabbed someone like he didn't care and then he went after Dom.
Dad must have done something real bad.
Like what?
For someone to do all of that.
Hey, don't you worry about that. Everything's all right now. All right?
DAVID: Sam said he needed the money.
He said his student loan hadn't come through.
He needed to pay his rent and his tuition fees.
He said I'd get it back, no problem.
£5,000?
He never usually asks me for anything and here he was...
So... where did it come from?
A loan shark.
An ex-inmate.
(Chuckles) Which is why you were suspended?
Word got round.
It made me vulnerable.
I'm gonna lose my job.
Listen, Ali doesn't know about the money, about me being suspended.
She's gonna find out.
I didn't know Michael Collersdale. I don't know why he is doing this.
OK.
(Sighs)
Do you want to finish this?
Go up the top?
Yeah.
- There! - Oh, good move.
- Gonna beat you. - Now what am I gonna do?
LOUISA: There's no way you're gonna beat her.
- Nice one, Sam. - Thanks, love.
What the fuck do you think you were doing?
David...
- Are you on drugs? - No.
You know, I see men like you on the wing all the time.
- I was just trying to make some money. - What, by spending mine?
Can I have it back now, please? Huh?
Eh?
Do you know I'm gonna lose my job?
What?
I'm so ashamed of you.
Well, I'm sorry.
I failed you, OK? I'm a complete and utter fucking failure!
- Want me to say that? - Don't speak to me like that!
- Robert, this is my son. - Yeah, but he's under my protection.
(Robert sighs)
You were right.
It's not easy, all this.
Did you speak to Mark?
Hm.
"Just follow your instincts, Robert. It's what you're good at."
What did he say about using Louisa's phone?
Collersdale still hasn't replied, and he probably won't, but they won't block it in case he does.
- So, Megan came round today. - What, to the house?
She's booked Louisa and Joe in for a sailing lesson with Ben. You know what she's like.
It's probably good, for cover.
It's what tourists do, and it will get them out of the house.
(Footsteps approaching)
Can you show me the bullet now?
How big do you think it'll be?
Dunno, about this bit?
That doesn't look like a bullet.
From a.22 rifle.
- I was protecting someone. - And you got in the way?
(Laughs) I tried to.
Do you think Michael Collersdale has a gun?
It doesn't matter if he's got a tank.
He doesn't know where you are.
You're absolutely safe here, Joe.
Nothing will happen to you or your family. I give you my word.
- Do you want to keep it? - You're giving it to me?
A present.
Thanks!
(Gunshot echoes)
It's just a keepsake.
A little present to say thank you.
You're not gonna forget me?
Susan Reynolds gave me a present at the Truck Stop, she put it in my pocket.
And we went outside.
Do you remember anything else?
Come on, dinner's ready.
Just lock up.
(Phone keypad bleeps)
(Ringing tone)
- Do you want just a small piece? - Thank you.
- Want to come sailing? - You been before?
No, but Louisa's been canoeing with school.
I envy you all this.
I don't have a family. Only Robert.
ROBERT: You've got to eat your greens, Joe! - Pass the carrots.
Get some bread as well.
Here you go.
I owe you all an apology.
I should never have left you by yourself in Blackpool.
- You didn't... - And I lied to you.
And that was the one thing we agreed on - no secrets or lies.
I'm sorry.
I lent you some money, but when you got into trouble, you couldn't come to me.
You were frightened, like I was frightened of my dad.
And Robert and Katy... I'm sorry for being such an arse.
(Ripple of laughter)
Yeah, well, I'll second that.
KATY: Do you want some salad?
Mark, it's me. Susan Reynolds gave me a present, the night I was shot.
I just remembered it.
Can you call me when you get this?
(Keypad bleeps)
My name is Louisa Watkins, this is my younger brother...
Joey Watkins, footballing superstar. You may have heard of me.
- You can't just make it up. - It's you who's messing it up!
Listen, not many people round here know I've been shot. So don't say anything to Ben.
I promise I won't tell anyone.
- I trust you. Anything else? - We play ill.
Correct, and you will be ill.
- Joe and Louisa, is it? - Hello.
Either of you done anything like this before?
I've done a bit of canoeing when I was younger, at home in Didsbury.
Joe?
No problem. You'll soon get the hang of it.
Let's get your life jackets on and get you signed in.
- See you later. - How's Katy?
Megan's convinced she's pregnant.
No! Well...
- She called in sick, so what else am I to think? - Well, it's news to me.
I thought we'd do a bit of sailing this morning, there's a good breeze out.
What am I gonna do with this tiller? This is called the tiller.
- Push it away from me, go across the wind. - Yeah...
Ready about.
- (Whoops) - Enjoying yourself?
Yeah.
Ohh!
(Shutter clicks)
(Thunder rumbles)
(Wind howls)
It's picked up a bit.
Shouldn't he have come round by now?
Ben's probably taken them onto the island. He sometimes does that.
Robert?
Robert, what are you doing?
I can't see them!
(Panting)
Agh!
Joe! Susan!
(Groans)
Joe!
Louisa!
Joe!
(Wind chimes tinkle)
What's happened?
- I couldn't see them. - They're fine.
- You OK? - Come and see this place.
(Wind chimes tinkling)
Want a lift back or are you gonna swim?
- (Chuckles) - Sorry, I panicked.
Come on, mate, what were you thinking? You could've drowned out there.
What are you doing?
Oh, I couldn't sleep.
I need to go for a drive.
OK.
It's Susan, isn't it?
(Sighs) I'm sorry.
Robert, don't.
(Door closes)
(Car starts)
I wish you could come with me to the trial.
I'm such a coward.
You're not a coward, Susan.
You're not a coward.
Oh, we're gonna be early.
When have you ever been late?
(Both laugh)
Can we go inside?
They'll be here in eight minutes.
I just need the loo.
- OK? - Yeah.
I'm OK.
(Susan laughs)
I'm gonna miss this... you.
(Both laugh)
(Vehicle approaches)
What are you doing here?
- Katy was worried. - But I didn't say anything.
I found it in your jacket on the night. I withheld it.
- Why? - Because I didn't know what it meant.
- What, you think I was having an affair? - Were you?
No.
Because it happens. You know it happens.
- Protection officers get close to the... - Yeah, it happens. But it didn't happen with me.
It was meant for you. I thought you might like it.
You have to put this behind you, Robert.
You've got a family that needs your protection.
(Distant sirens blare)
(Grunts softly)
- Hello, Gemma. - You're back again?
Where are they? Where's Ali?
I don't know where she is! I don't know where she is, I swear it.
I don't know where she is.
Well, I bought something for you.
I don't do that any more.
I don't know where Ali is.
- Please leave a message. - Why ain't she picking up? Try it again.
Hi, Ali, it's Gemma. Can you give me a ring back when you get this, please? It's urgent. OK.
Bye.
I love you.
- What you doing? - I just left her a message.
You said you hated her and you ain't seen her in years and now you're telling her you love her.
- This is all your fault. - No. Please, Michael...
