Hey. Body's in there.
No sign of the girl.
- M. O? - Yeah, it's him, no doubt.
That guy over there, that's Dad and the girl's name is May.
Hi, there, sir. I'm DI Rav Sangha, this is DS Marcella Backland.
Have you found her? Have you heard anything?
- RAV: I'm afraid not. Not yet, no. - When was the last time you saw May?
When I left for work.
I got a text about an extra delivery, a last-minute thing.
- Who was she with? - Beth, my neighbour, she baby-sits.
If I get late, I call her. I carry May over, I put her in Beth's bed.
She loves waking up there, Beth spoils her.
RAV: And what time was that?
Jackpot247 was finishing, so around 3:00.
And at what time did you get back?
A few minutes after 4:00. It was just a short airport run, you know?
And then I went to Beth's and I found her.
RAV: I appreciate this is really difficult for you...
- Hang on, why did you go over? - Sorry, what?
You just said that May liked waking up there, so why did you go over?
Because the door was open,
but it was dark in the flat so I thought I needed to check on them, you know?
RAV: Where are you going?
MARCELLA: He talks too much, too much detail.
Marcella, he's in shock.
Yes, or well-rehearsed.
Marcella?
MARCELLA: Christ.
- Anything? - Yeah, they found some strands of hair
in her right hand. Not hers.
DNA?
Yeah. Looks like it.
Poor girl.
What did you do with her?
You didn't put her in Beth's bed.
- No, no, I normally do but... - Don't lie to me!
Do not lie to me. What did you do with that little girl?
You're her father, you're supposed to keep her safe,
and I want to know what you did with that little girl!
Nothing!
- Tell me what you did with your little girl! - Nothing!
- What did you do... - I left her sleeping.
- Where? - In her room. On her own.
You left her sleeping in her room alone at night?
A six-year-old child. Are you out of your mind?
Did you tell your neighbour?
I thought if I told you I'd lose custody, that you'd take her away.
We'll have to find her before we can do that, won't we?

Her backpack, have you found her backpack?
Why do you ask?
She must have it. Then she's got her phone.
- In her backpack? - Yeah. It's on, you can track it.
How do you know it's on? You didn't call her, did you?
Yeah, but she didn't pick up. You can track it, right?
If it's still on. The person who took your daughter might also have heard it.
MCU OPERATOR: Located her phone signal. They're travelling fast. Driving east.
Okay, get mobile units there right away. And find that car!

(WHIMPERS)
(MARCELLA GROANS)
Where have you been at this hour?
For a drive.
- Couldn't sleep. - Did you try?
No.
Where did you go?
Nowhere, just driving around.
Well, after today there will be a grave to go to.
I'm gonna get a shower.
LAURA: I want you to go home, get some sleep.
Get out of here, do something normal.
Grace Gibson's funeral's at 3:00.
Do you want us there?
One of you, with a photographer.
Hi. Sorry, is it okay if I...
Sure, what is it, Mark?
MARK: I just heard from forensics.
The DNA results from the hair found in the babysitter's hand won't be back till tomorrow.
Thanks, Mark.
Where's Marcella?
She burnt her hand, she's getting it looked at. She'll be fine.
Okay, good, well, um...
I got a lot to do so...
Yeah, me too.
Who's Juliet?
- You heard that? - Mmm-hmm.
Her daughter.
She would have been six now.
MARK: Hi.
- Hi. - You okay?
You want an update?
Okay, so, um, we had to release Bendek Krol,
didn't have enough to keep him.
And, uh... There's no sign of Mohammed El-Sayed.
I mean, he hasn't left the country as far as we know.
We've put out a general warrant for him.
There was something else...
Hey. It's Mum.
EMMA: Mum? What do you want?
Well, nothing, um...
Mum?
I just wanted to hear your voice.
What are you doing?
Speaking to you.
No, I mean before I called, silly.
Oh. Got netball. Gotta go. Love you, Mum.
(SIGHS)
JASON: Tim!
TIM: Jason?
What're you doing here?
JASON: Just dropped Marcella off.
You're looking better than the last time I saw you.
What were you doing at my house?
(CHUCKLES) You left her, man.
Well, we're still married. So keep away from her.
Is there an "or else" coming, or...
Just stay away from her.
(DOOR CLOSES)
- Bendek? - Yes?
I need to talk to you.
I'm sorry, but you can't stay here any more.
You are kicking me out?
We're not comfortable with you living here.
You got till end of the week.
It's about the police.
Yeah.
It's that, and the fighting.
BENDEK: Wait,
I paid.
I paid for a whole month.
I want you out.
YANN: I can't go.
(SIGHS) What is it now?
The thing is, I can't... I can't deal with death right now.
It's just one thing too many, you know?
I can't go. I... I just can't.
Okay, well, I'll, um...
I'll just go straight home after the ceremony.
(STAMMERING) You're going?
Yeah. It's Grace.
I drove all the way here to pay my respects. I'm going.
Hurry back home.
HENRY: Grace saved me.
Grace saved my life.
When our dad died,
I ran away.
And all the years that I was travelling,
Grace never stopped
calling, writing,
letting me know that I was important to her.
I think she made a lot of people feel like that.
Maybe that was her gift.
Because that's what makes life worth living.
When people
let you know that you matter to them.
(SNIFFLING)
I'm sorry.
(DOOR OPENS)
(DOOR CLOSES)
RAV: Hi.
Hi.
You, uh...
You weren't in the briefing.
Not that you missed much.
The car he used was reported stolen this morning
and there's no facial shots from the cameras we know he passed.
Whereabouts of Mohammed El-Sayed is still unknown...
MARCELLA: I know, Mark told me.
What about DNA of hair we found?
RAV: There's no match yet.
And there's no cameras outside the Premier Lodge
that can help us with the man who took the keycard.
(MARCELLA SIGHS)
Marcella, Laura...
Laura told me about Juliet.
I'm so sorry.
I have a 7-year-old at home.
- Sany. She's my oldest. Sonam's five. - I didn't know.
Are you okay?
I have to ask you, are you still able to be a part of this?
Yes, I am.
I have to find him.
Well, May has forced him to improvise,
he is bound to have made mistakes.
We're going to get him.
Thank you so much for coming.
Should we send flowers to Andrew Barnes' widow?
We didn't know him that well, and her, not at all.
But we did business together, she is an MP.
We should, shouldn't we?
Any idea who his replacement might be?
There are some options.
Do we know anything about these options?
Daughton has intel on everyone in the planning committee.
HENRY: Barnes' replacement.
Well, as soon as we find out who it is I'll send him the new plan straight away.
That plan was a good one when Andrew Barnes was alive.
But maybe we can persuade his replacement to go back to the original.
Get the intel on the others.
Thanks, Jason.
Well, the new plan is sustainable and has a green space.
It is everything that was stated in the planning agreement.
And we're making decent money.
Yeah, but not as much. It was a compromise.
This is how we're going to have to do business in the future.
Your way?
Well, listening to me, yeah.
But the future isn't here yet, is it?
ALESHA: Andrew Barnes. Overdosed on antidepressants.
A presumed suicide.
Come on, you know I don't like it down here. Just make it quick.
It's a tracheal contusion consistent with a solid object being
pushed down his oesophagus.
In English.
Someone's pushed something down his throat.
Right. So, why didn't you just say so?
I went to med school.
Someone shoved what?
Wouldn't like to say.
Thin enough to fit his throat, thick enough to injure it.
Someone fed him an overdose of antidepressants?
Hmm. Probably.
The injury occurred less than an hour before his death.
So you're telling me that Andrew Barnes was murdered?
I'm telling you, you can't rule it out.

EDWARD: Why is it so dark in here?
Oh, my God!
- Hi, Mum. - MARCELLA: Hello.
Hey, gorgeous.
What a nice surprise!
Okay, enough.
MARCELLA: Are you all right? Hmm? EDWARD: Yeah.
- Is this your work, Mum? - JASON: Eddie, don't look at that.
Is this your job?
Um, yeah, and it's not for you, nosy parker. Go on.
JASON: You need to cover up, Marcella.
- Right. Help me. - Yeah.
MARCELLA: What are you doing here?
What do you mean?
It's family dinner.
We agreed we needed it.
We did?
When I picked you up this morning.
From the hospital?
Sorry, my mind was elsewhere.
I didn't realise you meant tonight.
So dinner is...
Nonexistent.
All right, change of plan.
Who wants Thai?
EMMA: Yeah! EDWARD: Me!
STEPHEN: You should try to eat something.
Will this be enough?
With her gone, will I be enough?
Nothing ever happened.
Just seeing how happy you were when she was in the room.
You loved her.
Like a daughter, yes.
Not the way you think.
I'm not sure I believe that.
I miss her.
I will always miss her,
but, yes,
this will be enough.
EDWARD: The coin is here.
JASON: That's great. Well done.
I'm doing eight more tricks at my talent show. Will you come?
Of course. I wouldn't miss it for the world.
- Will you both come? - Of course, of course I'll come.
Hey.
I can't wait to see you up in that stage.
Cheeky.
(GIGGLES)
Right. So what else has been happening?
I got a B in the last chemistry test.
EDWARD: That's rubbish! I get A's!
- Ay. - Seriously.
- EMMA: I will hit you. - Idiot. Okay, stop it.
MARCELLA: Please. Ay. JASON: Enough!
EDWARD: Do not play with the prawn crackers.
EDWARD: You'll never make it in the NBA, Mum!
- MARCELLA: Why? - Because you have to...
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
I thought tonight went well.
Yeah.
You seemed a bit
off.
I was just thinking...
It dawned on me that everybody just leaves,
or they're taken away.
You blame me for the kids going to boarding school.
I blame you for everything.
Except Juliet, you know that.
I think they needed to get away.
You're saying it's my fault?
Hmm?
Are you saying that I drive people away?
Even my own children.
For six years
- I tried to... - You tried for three.
I know about Grace. Tim told me.
It was three years, Jason.
For three years,
I wanted us to move on,
to get our lives back.
Get what back? What'd we lost?
We lost us. How we used to be.
We had 10 amazing years. And that's more than most people have.
And things changed. Of course they did. But we dealt with that.
You deal with it.
Things were different, they weren't bad.
It wasn't bad but it wasn't good enough.
We lost us.
And that was always our strength, that connection that we had.
And I couldn't reach you.
Like I said before, I felt lonely.
What, and you're not lonely now?
Yeah.
I am.
Maybe if you would have talked to me about it,
then we wouldn't be here now.
I came back for Grace.
To grow up.
Finally get involved in the family business.
But Grace is gone.
Sylvie doesn't care about anything that I do.
Sylvie is going through a lot right now.
Sylvie has made me feel like a failure my entire life.
I just need to succeed at one thing.
You fixed Lambeth.
Yeah, but now she's changed her mind about that again.
What... I don't care, you can't leave.
What's the point of staying?
(MOBILE PHONE RINGS)
Yann?
Yeah.
Shit.
I should probably go.
Did he bury his sister today?
MATTHEW: (VOICEMAIL) Can't get to the phone right now.
Leave a message after the tone.
MARCELLA: All right, Bubba.
Oh...
You take care, okay? I love you.
- Bye. - (KISSES)
Look after your sister, Bubba.
- EDWARD: I will. - (MARCELLA CHUCKLES)
- Love you. - I'll see you soon. I love you, too.
MARCELLA: Bye, guys. EDWARD AND EMMA: Bye.
EMMA: Let's go. EDWARD: All right, close the door.
I want them to come home.
- I think you should ask what they want. - They didn't ask to go,
they are there because it suited you, now I want it to suit me.
Okay, I'm not going to fight you on this,
but I think you should ask them.
- All right. - They like it there, Marcella.
Okay, I...
Bye.
Look after your hand.

RAV: Listen up. Forensics just called.
We've got a match on the hair from Beth's hand.
D&D from a few years back.
Let's finish this.
Open up. Police!
Come on, just break it down.
(SCREAMING)
Yann Hall. I am arresting you on the suspicion of the murder of Beth Bachan
and the kidnap and murder of May Weir.
You do not have to say anything. Anything that you do say
may be used in court or in evidence against you.
YANN: Hello.
(LAUGHS)
RAV: Yann Hall.
That's Matthew Neil's boyfriend.
That's the computer bloke we spoke to about the sex chat.
Wait until the solicitor gets here, see what the search of the house gives us,
- keep me in the loop. - Okay.
Good job.
YANN: I shouldn't be here.
No one says anything.
BENDEK: Linda?
Stuart?
(SIGHS)
STUART: You don't return my calls.
JASON: Why would I?
Well, to discuss our financial settlement.
Is that the intel from Daughton that I prepared for you?
Yeah, so?
Then you'll find that I'm good at what I do.
Very good.
You got till noon,
otherwise I'll tell Sylvie about this.
And Marcella. And the police.
- You've got my number, haven't you? - (SCOFFS)
TIM: It's, um, DI Tim Williamson.
I'm just looking into the circumstances surrounding the death of Andrew Barnes.
No, we have to look into every suicide.
Yes.
Yes, it's very tragic.
Listen, um...
Did he, um, upset anyone?
Is anybody angry with him?
Yeah. Well, maybe they didn't like something he was doing?
What's that?
Mmm...
Yes.
And, uh, who is the developer?
Yes, I am familiar with them. Thank you.
RAV: Where were you between 3:00 a.m. And 6:30 yesterday morning?
YANN: Yesterday, I was at home.
Doing what?
Watching telly, asleep...
Were you with anyone?
No. My partner, he works away a lot.
In bed, asleep. Alone.
- Yeah. - Mmm.
What happened there?
I burned myself.
I was cooking.
Why?
Why are you asking me all this?
A six-year-old girl was drowned.
We found these in your house.
The six-year-old girl's hands were tied
with ones just like that.
And hers.
And his.
And you see there?
Do you see that around their necks?
Yann, look at that. What is that?
That's right.
- Where do you think we found that? - I don't know.
- Where do you think we found that? - I have no idea.
Shall I tell you where we found it? We found it
in a cupboard in your kitchen!
LAWYER: Circumstantial at best. RAV: Oh, we got DNA.
Your DNA. From the baby-sitter.
Were you in a rush? Hmm?
Did May walk in on you? Did she scream or cry?
Did she know that she was going to die?
But you couldn't kill her, could you?
You couldn't kill her, so you just threw her away like a piece of rubbish.
If she didn't freeze to death, then she'd drown.
Just as long as you didn't have to see it, right?
- No, no, no... - Yeah?
You're a fucking coward.
(SCREAMS)
Enough talking.
Shut up. Shut up!
- Shut up! Shut up! - What did you do, huh?
RAV: Huh?
You did it, didn't you? You did it!
YANN: I don't know what you're talking about!
BENDEK: I want to stay.
Well, I'm sorry, Bendek, that's out of the question.
Linda doesn't know, does she?
That you're leaving? Yeah, she does.
About your illness.
The Multiple Sclerosis.
You think that's going to keep you here, do you?
That you found out?
I'll just tell her.
I mean, I got to, sooner or later, anyway.
Are you going to tell her about this as well?
It says here
he was found a little after 2:00 a.m.
Two nights ago.
End of the week, Bendek.
According to the search history on your computer,
you searched for "Andrew Barnes Suicide",
"Barnes Found Dead" and, uh,
"MP Barnes husband dead"
from midnight onwards.
That's two hours before he was found.
I took a screenshot
and downloaded it.
So I'm staying.
Everywhere else will be so expensive,
since I'm living here for free now.
(SIGHS)
I haven't done anything.
I'm not supposed to be here.
I'm not supposed...
I'm not supposed to be here. Please, just (STAMMERS) come.
Come. I'm not... (STAMMERING)
You all right?
I did not ask you to do anything
and this isn't saying that.
This is so I never see
or hear from you again.
Sure.
Just...
