Social Services, please.
They came just after we spoke.
They'd been to get the girls from school already.
Everything will be OK.
3kg of best Colombian.
120K bank transfer is fine.
Give me the phone.
"Are you still with her?" Who wants to know?
You ship my product, you get to be the knight in shining armour.
"At the bottom of this letter are bank account details.
"The money is the proceeds of crime.
"Take this letter to an outside police force."
Stop this now, Inspector.
I'm arresting you for fleeing the scene of an accident.
You were driving the car Dr Alpay tried to avoid.
My phone.
Forget about your phone.
There's a photo of the letter on it.
Where's the original?
I flushed it.
Great! Lucky I made a copy.
Listen, forget about Williams. OK? She is no longer involved in this.
I have to call Lisa. Quickly. Give me the phone.
You and I, Faith, we can do this. We can get the children back.
Come on.
It looks like your best witness has been arrested.
I assume you're not going to contest the case.
The children's health and well-being is our only concern.
DI Williams made up the complaint.
I don't agree, Miss Jones.
"Shift Evan's money to your account NOW!!!"
First derelict building just north of St Clears in an hour's time.
Cold feet?
It's for Faith.
Steve.
I'll be waiting at the caravan.
Yesterday, your honour authorized an emergency protection order...
..on the basis of DI Williams's allegation...
..that Mrs Howells's children were at risk.
DI Williams has been arrested for a serious offence.
She has not presented any evidence to support her claim.
Mrs Howells's children were ripped from her due to a personal grudge.
According to DI Williams yesterday...
..Ms Huws, Mrs Howells was about to be arrested for murder.
Doesn't this turn everything on its head?
I'm sure the irony is obvious to everyone, your honour.
Particularly Ms Huws. We insist the children come home.
The case was brought to the attention of social services...
..so my client looked into the family situation.
We'd like to call another client.
This is the first we're hearing of this.
Marion Howells, Mrs Howells's mother-in-law.
If you think it'll be useful.
Mrs Marion Howells, please.
The truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
Mrs Howells has been married to your son Evan for ten years. Correct?
Ten and a half.
In your opinion, has she been a good mother?
Yes, she has, on the whole.
Since your son's disappearance?
The company she keeps concerns me.
She invites criminals into her home.
Do you mean Mr Baldini?
Yes.
What exactly is your concern?
His record.
I had no idea.
The children are already upset.
Megan barely slept when she was with us a few nights ago.
How would you explain Mrs Howells's recent relationship with Mr Baldini?
I'm not sure.
You're concerned that this relationship...
..may be related to your son's disappearance, are you?
The police think so.
You think the children are safer elsewhere for the time being.
If there's a choice, they have to be safe.
Of course.
You wouldn't have peace of mind if they were at home with Mrs Howells.
No.
Miss Jones. Do you wish to cross-examine?
Do something, Faith. We're losing.
Right, executive decision.
Mrs Howells.
Why do you think your son disappeared seven days ago?
I'd like to know.
Don't you have any idea?
I'm trying not to think the worst.
What is the worst? Murder? Suicide?
Excuse me.
OK.
Bring him in.
Let's be honest here.
Do you really believe my client...
..could have been involved in your son's theoretical murder?
No, I don't.
So, if it is suicide, which seems a more likely explanation...
..do you consider her responsible?
No.
It's more likely it has something to do with you.
Something you told him recently.
Cerys.
Days before Evan's disappearance.
You told him that there was a possibility...
..that your husband isn't his father.
It seems he bought a DNA testing kit.
You turned your son's world upside down.
Now, you're giving evidence against my client...
..because you can't accept responsibility.
You said it was about the children.
I'm sorry.
He's called Steve.
He's Mami's friend.
You must have seen him over at your house.
Only through the window.
You must have heard him talking to Mami.
Do you remember last Wednesday morning?
The last morning Dadi was at home.
What were he and Mami talking about?
Mami had a headache.
She'd been to a divorce party.
I saw the video you put on Facebook.
It was great, Alys. Very good.
Has Dadi sent a reply message?
Yes or no?
I have to change for my ballet class.
What's your iPad code?
Tell me the code, Alys.
You want to see Mami again, don't you?
I have to go now.
Hiya.
Yes, she is.
She's a wonderful mother.
She adores the children.
And since your son's disappearance?
She's coped remarkably well.
My son got himself into trouble believing there was no way out.
Then he turned his back on her.
Your honour...
..I have no doubt that Faith is blameless in all this.
She is the best person to care for her children.
Your wife is concerned about her choice of friends.
I've spoken to Mr Baldini.
In my opinion, he's a grateful client...
..repaying the faith my son showed in him.
I love my grandchildren.
If I didn't fully trust Faith...
..I wouldn't be here now.
Thank you.
Dewi, it's me. Steve.
I'm back in the game. I've got a job for you and Erin.
I need you to get rid of Gael Reardon.
I'll bring the money with me to the usual place. Six o'clock.
Your children have been late to school many times.
That's not a reason...
Megan's been crying in class and unable to concentrate.
Her father is missing.
That makes your associating with Mr Baldini even stranger.
Your honour, you've seen a copy of Mrs Howells's husband's letter.
We're concerned about your children's welfare...
..not your husband's whereabouts.
The letter proves Mrs Howells isn't a threat to her children.
Of course, Miss Huws.
Are you in a relationship with Mr Stephen Baldini, Mrs Howells?
Yes, a professional relationship.
He's a client of our firm.
A client you invited into your home days after your husband disappeared.
Dressed in a negligee with mood music?
Is that what you think?
Was it like that?
Really?
My husband, the father of my children, disappeared.
What did the police do? What did my mother-in-law do?
She and every other gossip in town accused me of killing him.
Or at least, arranging his murder.
Do you know how that feels?
Yes, I know who my friends are now.
An ex-con with 13 convictions including selling drugs to children.
He's been a good friend.
Don't you think having him around your children is a problem?
What about benefit of the doubt? Courts used to act upon it.
Maybe your judgement is flawed.
No, it isn't!
Do you have children? Do you have any children?
No.
So, you can never understand.
You have no idea what it feels like.
Megan, Alys and Rhodri mean everything to me.
They call it love.
Mrs Howells.
Take your seat, please.
I'm going to consider my judgement.
Right.
You were driving the squad car.
Your name's on the register.
Your face is on tape driving it back to the depot.
Unless you can prove where that video came from...
..who shot it and that it hasn't been tampered with...
..it won't go near a jury.
Constable.
It was emailed to us anonymously.
We'll get a match from the car's tyres.
Even without your face on video, there's more than enough evidence.
Did you think you'd killed her?
Is that why you ran away?
Switch off the tape.
Switch it off.
Yes, sir.
There was no signal.
I tried to help. I did everything I could.
When I got back to the road, one of your colleagues turned up.
DS Morgan.
She told me to forget I'd ever been there.
DS Morgan wasn't on duty that evening.
It was her, regardless of whether or not she was on duty.
Are you telling me, you - a Detective Inspector...
..took an order from a DS, to forget you'd been there...
..while a woman burned to death in her car?
The Social Services had received information...
..that Mrs Howells was under suspicion of committing murder.
In my opinion, removing the children from her care was acceptable.
The situation has changed.
Mrs Howells is no longer under suspicion.
Despite that, some matters are still a cause for concern.
Mrs Howells, are you ready to ensure...
..that your children have no contact with Mr Baldini from now on?
I am.
I rule that the children be returned at once, on that condition.
I owe you an apology, Faith.
Delyth phoned. She told me about Evan's letter.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Tom. I had no idea.
Cerys...
Thank you.
It all makes sense now.
I knew you weren't happy but...
I'd call the big guns. I'm going to try the Met.
We know Evan was laundering cash...
..and putting it through Pedersen but we don't know why.
Why would he agree to that?
He said in the letter he'd been betrayed by people he trusted.
Alpay told you she was being hassled.
Please, Cerys. That's enough.
We're almost there, Faith!
It's starting to make sense and there's 200k...
That's enough, please.
Alright.
Thanks for getting the children back.
I need to be with them now.
Evan was just weak, wasn't he?
I understand that.
Leave it with me then.
Please.
Jesus, here she is!
Right, we'll talk later.
Lisa.
Aren't you staying for a drink?
Not this time. Things to do!
Alright, bye!
Bloody brilliant, babes. I've got wine and peanuts.
That guy, Steve, has been phoning the house.
What a day.
Come here.
I'm so proud of you.
Faith, you've wiped that twice.
That woman's like the gestapo. She sees everything.
Won't they miss those?
I don't know.
DOORBELL
Already?
I haven't even hoovered.
Leave the hoovering, just go.
Hey.
Mrs Howells.
I think this is yours.
I've got one more matter.
Come in.
Why aren't you in custody?
Released without charge.
I don't believe this.
Why would Parry...? And this?
DCI Parry asked me to return it.
What did he want with it?
I'd like to put everything behind us.
I suggest you transfer all Evan's proceeds from crime...
..into the police account and we can forget about it.
A dodgy detective was blackmailing Alpay.
That's the last thing she said to me.
She told a lot of lies.
What about you, Inspector?
Aren't you embarrassed about planting that earring?
What did you do?
Did you steal it while you were searching my house, just in case?
Actually.
If you know about the money...
..you must have read the letter.
DCI Parry told me.
He and Evan were working on something together in Swansea.
His disappearance is an embarrassment for them.
Evan was looking after money for an investigation.
Parry wants it back.
To close the matter quietly.
Evan should be grateful.
You and Parry should know...
..I got someone in the firm to take the letter to another police force.
Are you the dodgy detective Evan mentioned in the letter?
Stay here.
I've got a video of your car where Alpay died.
The only one that can convict you.
DS Morgan told me to leave Alpay in the car.
Swansea CID.
The one who was there when you found Evan's car on Monday.
She was there when I got back to the road.
Why was she there?
She must have followed Alpay.
Alpay ran a drug factory at her clinic.
Swansea CID went after her.
Swansea.
Did you send Constable Price the anonymous email?
What email?
She's refusing to pay.
Stubborn like all solicitors.
No, that's up to you.
I've done my part.
120k.
It's all there.
The eighty Evan owed you and...
We'll take care of Gael Reardon.
Do a good job of her.
Stay out of the way for a while.
A word to the wise...
Faith Howells, and a man like you...
..you're wasting your time.
Nice to have you back, Steve.
They're late.
Chill, babes. They'll be here.
Do you want a cheese string?
They've found him.
Alys has gone missing from her ballet lesson.
The foster parents dropped her off.
She'd disappeared by the time they came to pick her up.
What?
We have two cars looking for her.
Has she been in touch?
No.
We'll find her.
Stay here for now.
Please, Terry.
Take her in, Lisa.
We'll find her.
Stay here.
Faith, the children!
Stay here to wait for Megan and Rhodri.
Steve?
Where is he?
Where's Baldini? Where's my money?
I've no idea what you're talking about.
My daughter's gone missing. Have you taken her?
What would I want with a kid?
Oh!
120 thousand.
Mine.
Oh, Jesus.
He put on a great show by the way.
Claimed he was doing it all for you.
Doing what for me?
Shifting the product Evan ordered.
Like a fool, I fell for it.
We're smart women, Faith...
..but that doesn't make us immune from being cheated on.
Your rat of a husband wormed his way between my sheets...
..all kinds of promises he wasn't man enough to keep.
Here we are again, round two.
You didn't know.
So sorry.
He betrayed me, sweetheart.
If you ever find that rotten carcass of his, make sure you bury it deep.
I'd gladly dig it up and kill him again.
I need to find my daughter.
Lost a case?
Something like that.
Your order is on its way.
Monday.
Thanks.
I can't do this, Gael.
I thought I could.
I'm just a small-town lawyer.
I've made a mistake.
Evan...
And I love my family.
Bastard, Evan Howells!
Bastard!
Do you want some grapes?
Mami!
I've missed you so much.
I'll explain everything very soon.
Hey.
Are you OK?
Alys was meeting Dadi off the train.
She didn't tell that woman.
Alys said it was a secret.
When did she say that?
After school, Dadi Facebooked her.
Right.
A bath and bed, I think.
Who wants Mami to read a story?
Me!
No, not you!
Right, come on, sweetie. Upstairs.
Come to Mami.
Call Terry now.
"I'll see you in the spring. Goodnight, Lizard, said Tortoise."
Alys! It's Uncle Terry!
When will Alys be home?
You'll see her in the morning.
Alys!
Hello?
Hi, Mam.
Alys!
Alys.
Where are you, love?
Are you OK?
Are you OK, love?
I'm fine. I'm with Arthur.
Arthur?
Where? Where, love?
Alys.
Alys, please!
Listen carefully.
In a minute, you'll get a text with an account number and postcode.
Go there within half an hour. Then you'll have to do a bank transfer.
Come alone, don't tell the police.
Arthur?
Arthur!
Who is with you?
Who else is with you?
Arthur!
Love you.
Faith!
I'm going to get Alys.
Have they found her?
Not quite.
Faith, what's going on?
Wait a minute, Alys.
Wait a minute, love.
Mami is coming.
Marion, I want you to know...
..I've thought about what you said earlier.
I appreciate that you sacrificed a lot to stay in this marriage.
That's why I think it's only right...
..to give you time to consider your own feelings.
I want you to be happy.
If that means a life apart from me...
..well, so be it.
I'm planning to stay in a hotel for a day or two.
I'll go upstairs to fetch a few things.
I want roadblocks on every road out of town...
..and checks on every train that's been through in the last hour.
I'll speak to Divisional HQ.
What the hell are you doing?
My job.
DCI Parry came to his senses.
I don't know what kind of dirty deal...
..you've made with the DCI in Swansea...
..or what's going on here...
..but I know where you were that night.
Is that a threat, Constable?
Terry!
You need this job.
Bethan knows you're a soft touch.
Hello?
Come on.
That's enough.
Where's Alys?
In a minute.
I want you to transfer everything you moved out of Evan's account.
Stay there.
I want Mami.
The money, Faith.
What will you tell the Met?
You won't get in touch with them.
Think about it.
Every detail of Evan's life made public.
Embarrassment for the children, court cases, investigations.
Your career would be ruined.
Maybe the truth is worth it.
Evan came to me.
He asked for my help.
He was up to his eyes in dirty money from the Glynns.
He offered to be my informer.
It was his only choice.
You betrayed him.
He betrayed himself.
He had no backbone.
He gave in to temptation.
He stole, whored...
..sold drugs.
And all the time...
..he pretended to be a faithful husband to you.
I had to phone him to tell him it was over.
He knew he was going down.
That was the morning he disappeared.
Why did you wait to tell me this?
I was hoping he'd turn up.
I wanted to give him a chance.
A chance for both of you.
You wanted his money.
You've ruined a good man.
You stole the father of my children.
Is he dead?
I think we can assume that he is.
Bastard.
Transfer the money.
Wait, Alys!
It's OK.
MOBILE PHONE
Aren't you going to answer that?
Put me on speaker.
DCI Parry, it's been brought to my attention...
..that you've been using Evan Howells to set me up for a fall.
Full marks for effort but you've picked the wrong woman.
Gael.
Shut up and listen!
Call off your investigation...
..and do whatever it is the lovely Mrs Howells tells you to do.
If you don't, the moment I call Dublin, your grave is already dug.
Here are the terms, Chief Inspector.
Let Alys go.
Forget the money.
Keep the Glynns away from me.
We can all move on.
No Met, no prosecutions, no consequences.
Your dirty little secret will be safe.
Do you have any choice?
Evan said you were a better solicitor than him.
I should have had you working for me.
Let them go.
Do we have the money?
Let them go, I said.
Put it down, Helen!
200,000.
Every penny. Now.
I'm going to get my daughter.
Then we're all going home.
OK?
It's OK. It's fine. It's going to be fine.
You're not going anywhere until you've paid up.
Five seconds.
Three...
..two...
TWO GUNSHOTS
Come here. Bring your cuffs.
Clip her.
Keys.
Get back.
Further back.
Come here.
Mami.
Mami. Mami.
I was a coward.
I should have let them put me in prison.
Where did you learn?
The Army.
Listen, Faith.
You should go.
"Dear Superintendent Laxton.
"Further to our phone call...
"..I enclose a statement setting out all we currently know...
"..about the disappearance of Mr Evan Howells.
"I have no doubt the evidence points to significant misconduct...
"..carried out by Swansea officers DCI Huw Parry and DS Helen Morgan.
"If you would like to discuss the matter further...
"..please do not hesitate to contact me.
"Cerys Jones."
Send.
MOBILE PHONE
Are you OK, Faith?
Don't contact the Met.
What?
I've got Alys and I made a deal.
What do you mean?
We've got 80,000 to clear the firm's debts.
..and start a new business.
The rest of the money goes to pay off Gael Reardon.
80k? What about the Glynns?
It's sorted. Sorted, Cerys.
You have to scrap whatever you've done. OK?
We'll talk tomorrow. Goodnight, Cerys.
Faith!
Shit.
Shit, shit, shit!
Alys.
# I gave everything you needed
# You're hurt and I'm bleeding
# All of my strength, I gave to you
# We love completely #
You go in, my love.
# You leave after losing
# All of my hope went with you
# I gave you all of my heart
# I gave you my heart
# Even though it's breaking
# It's still beating
# I gave you all of my soul #
Hey Dadi, come out quickly.
Quick!
# I gave you myself
# Despite being broken
# Still breathing #
