Love you. Love you.
And love you. Bye, Rhods.
I've got to go.
Alright.
I've lost Evan.
Counselling, Evan?
Everyone has secrets.
He's going to be fine.
I'll put the missing persons form in first thing in the morning.
Alec Fenton. What's going on, Evan? Are you sure? Are you sure, Gareth?
Love you.
Evan!
MOBILE PHONE
Shit, shit.
Hello?
Mami, where are you?
I'm two minutes away.
I had to get some milk.
I'll be there now.
Rhodri won't stop crying.
I don't know what to do.
Stay on the phone, go to Rhodri.
I'm going to phone Mam-gu.
No, don't Alys. I'm almost home.
OK, love.
BANGING ON DOOR
Evan!
LOUD KNOCK ON DOOR
Evan!
I'll never do that again.
Sshh, they're sleeping.
I promise.
Where's the milk?
Milk? The garage was closed.
There was a man here.
What?
What kind of man?
I saw his shadow.
But he was big.
Did he say his name?
You've never left us before.
Alys.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I would never lie to you.
You just did.
"I'm sorry, I can't take your call..."
MOBILE PHONE
Hello?
Hi, Faith. It's Terry.
Any news?
Um.
No, there isn't.
Don't worry. I'm about to fill out the missing persons form.
Is there anything else you want to tell me?
Anything about his recent behaviour?
Faith?
No, nothing.
OK.
So 07.52. There we are, it's filed.
Sorry, guys.
I forgot to set the alarm.
Good morning, good morning, love. Good morning to you.
I thought we could have a day off.
Go to the beach, take the boat out.
Not going to school is against the law. You should know that.
Who cares? Stupid law!
Kit, I knew there was something!
Mam!
Thanks.
Come on, teeth.
I'm sorry, Alys. Alys!
MOBILE PHONE
Hello.
No, not yet.
Eleven, yes. Alright.
Alright, I'll deal with it now.
OK, bye.
Right, what do you want?
Ruby Curtis?
Mathew Williams?
Good luck in the Geography test.
Tina Jones?
Don't forget Tasmania!
Mam!
Good morning.
I'd like to enquire about the recent purchase of a wig, please.
Howells, Evan Howells.
I just need to know how much it cost and when he bought it.
600?
No, no, that's fine.
That's all, thank you very much.
Mrs Howells, can I have a word?
Is it to do with Evan?
No.
Then what?
My salary was supposed to be paid yesterday.
It hasn't come through.
Really? I'm sorry.
I'll pay it now.
Sorry.
Howells current account payroll.
Faith.
I'll have a word with them.
The firm's gone bust, Tom.
In the red.
60,000.
He's deserted a sinking ship.
You've retired, Tom. Forget it.
It's not a good idea to send Faith in her condition.
Is she pregnant again?
Good morning.
Can I have a word?
If you're quick.
You won't get your pay for a few days.
It's no problem, the mortgage can wait.
I've only just found out.
Have we finally gone bust?
Is that why he's disappeared?
I've been telling him that two isn't enough. We needed someone else.
You should have told me.
I can't take more of this.
I could be earning double at a decent firm.
It looks to me as though Evan's mind and yours were on other things.
Finished?
Yes.
Do you know where Mrs Howells is?
There.
Thanks.
Mrs Howells? Steve Baldini.
Good morning, Mr Baldini.
You got the message that you've got me today, Evan's wife.
Yes, I'm depending on you. Me and my daughter.
I've got a few questions.
One minute.
Why does Angie's mum say that she doesn't trust you with her daughter?
Her other bloke, a surveyor, wants me out of the way.
If I was the same man as I was, I'd understand.
I've changed, that's old news.
I haven't been in trouble for a year and I've been sober for six months.
Not that old.
I've not been in trouble for a year.
I've been sober for six months.
It's a good start.
I've changed and that's thanks to Evan.
He kept me out of prison and introduced me to the twelve steps.
One day at a time.
You're on in two minutes.
Thanks.
Shall we go?
Angie needs me.
You've got 13 previous convictions, Mr Baldini. We'll do our best.
Yes?
Ma'am.
There was a car in town last night. It came up on CCTV.
A black BMW. It's registered to a man who's been dead for two years.
Arthur Davies told Constable Jones he'd seen a similar car...
..outside Faith Howells's house.
Was this before or after we arrested him for being drunk and disorderly?
Don't you have any real work, Constable?
Yes, Ma'am.
Right.
The panel wants us to find a compromise.
Here's my offer.
Saturday mornings, two hours, supervised in a contact centre.
Angie will love that.
The law is clear. He's not a risk.
He's supposed to be in for five years.
Your husband rigged it for him.
Can we at least be courteous?
No.
You're wasting your time.
Hey!
Did you hear me say this was a lost cause?
Did you? No.
So at least do me the courtesy of seeing it through.
Please.
Mr Davies.
Tell me about the car you saw outside Faith Howells's house.
A black Beemer.
Did you see who was in it?
A man.
Could you ID him?
How would that work?
Your constable said I was drunk.
I'll have a word with the CPS.
You know best.
Your worships...
..sadly, marriages come and go.
People fall in and out of love.
But you never fall out of being a parent.
No matter what, you always be a mam or a dad.
My client wasn't the father that Angie deserved.
Even in his darkest moments, he didn't stop loving her.
All he's asking for is the chance to prove he really has changed.
Honourable magistrates...
..we can give these three broken hearts a chance to heal.
Every other Saturday, I can take her wherever I want.
Be careful.
Don't give your ex any excuse.
Good luck.
For how long has Evan been gone?
What?
There are no secrets around here.
Twenty-eight and a half hours.
Did you come looking for him last night?
No.
Look after yourself, OK?
I owe you one.
Have you seen Evan?
Howells?
Yes, Evan Howells.
Oh, what do you want to know?
When was he last here?
I don't know. March?
Three months ago.
Yeah.
There must be a mistake.
Has he been a naughty boy?
Bastard, Evan Howells!
Bastard!
Evan, I want you to know I've found the wig and the ID.
I know about Alec Fenton. I know the firm's up shit creek.
And I know you were at Tom's Carvery last night.
I should tell the police, but I haven't yet.
I'm giving you a chance to explain though you don't deserve it.
I'm prepared to believe you're innocent until proven guilty.
But I'm scared.
THURS A.M.
THURS P.M.
It's lunchtime.
Would you like something?
I'm sure all this stuff about their marriage is nonsense.
Evan will be back at his desk by this afternoon.
A cup of tea?
Please, Tom...
"I'm sorry I can't currently take your call."
"Please leave a message."
Evan.
Please come home.
I'm very sorry.
We've got so much to talk about.
Every Wednesday night between six and eight thirty...
..Evan's been going somewhere...
Sorry?
..to see someone.
Evan and me?
Are you joking?
Jeez, Faith.
Are you serious?
It is a miracle that I'm still here.
For six months...
..Evan has been promising to make me a partner and a new Swansea office.
Enjoy your coffee.
Thank you.
Did Evan mention anything to you about opening an office in Swansea?
He mentioned it.
Just not to me.
Great.
Faith, I feel I owe you an apology.
I don't know how to behave in a situation like this.
Any ideas?
Any?
There's a card in the second drawer down on the left.
"To Evan, enjoy your 40th!
"What do they say? It's only a number.
"You've still got it! Lots of love, Saran x x x"
Your brother-in-law was on the phone.
He wants you to head to the station when you can.
I'm sure it doesn't mean anything.
Who is your son?
He's welcome to her.
Come on, Rhodri.
Go to Mam.
Come on, love.
Faith and Evan met a financial adviser here a few months ago.
They were only being responsible, I suppose.
Mrs Howells.
Can I ask, what exactly you're doing to find my husband?
Nine out of ten missing persons turn up after a few days.
Too busy chasing lawnmower thieves?
If he's the exception...
Am I the problem, Inspector?
..a formal enquiry would begin...
..with detailed enquiries into your private lives.
If you want me to start there, Mrs Howells.
If we hear anything, you'll be the first to know.
You wanted to see me.
Hi, love.
Yes. I'm sure it's nothing but look at this now.
Right.
Do you recognize it?
No.
It was spotted outside your house last night around midnight.
According to who?
Arthur Davies.
He's not the most reliable person I know.
The thing is, it's what we call a ghost vehicle.
It's a car that's registered and insured under a dead man's name.
When did he say this?
He told the boss earlier.
Did he see the driver?
He got a quick glance.
He's coming in later to look at a few mug shots.
Um.
Are you sure Evan isn't in some kind of trouble?
You're the one who said it was probably nothing.
Probably not.
So there we are.
I have to go.
Bye, love.
Bye.
Bloody hell.
Saran. Who's Saran?
Saran?
She sent Evan a birthday card.
Oh, Saran James, I expect.
They were at school together.
I sold her a house last year.
A big house on Y Fedw estate.
She and her husband are doing exceptionally well.
They've got five hair salons.
What's she like?
Great figure. I mean, lovely. She's really sweet.
Did she and Evan ever..?
Um, yes, I think so.
For a while.
Right.
It was years ago.
They're friends, Faith. That's how we are around here.
So you still haven't heard from him.
No.
TELEPHONE
I'd better answer that.
Right.
Every small company goes through hard times.
To get in such trouble in less than a year without saying a word.
Has he been spending?
Not that I know of.
Faith said he used the overdraft.
It seems she didn't know about the company's troubles.
Maybe he's been lying to her.
I'm telling you this as a friend, not as a police officer.
He raised his life insurance a few weeks ago...
..to 1.25 million pounds.
I don't think he can afford it.
Most policies won't pay out if...
..if the insured commits...
..not within two years, anyway.
His didn't.
I understand now why you're worried.
I'll have a word with the DI.
We should get going, come on.
# Ba da da ba pa pa
# Ba da da whoa whoa
# Whoa whoa whoa
# Howells in the house, y'all
# No sheep on the road today #
OK, Mam?
Hmm?
You're doing that staring thing again.
Am I, love?
Have you heard anything about Dad?
No, not exactly.
You promised not to lie to me.
I'm not.
DOORBELL
I'll get it.
Thank you.
Hi, sweetie. Hi, Rhods.
I'm just going to have a word with Mam, OK?
Hiya.
Are you OK?
No.
I'm really not.
You haven't heard anything then.
Right, well, I've been doing some research.
The Missing Persons Bureau.
Usually with men his age, it's an emotional breakdown.
Can we talk about something else?
It's important, Faith.
I've made a checklist.
And without knowing he's probably left all sorts of clues.
Like letting the firm go under...
..while promising Cerys an office in Swansea...
..and humping some thing he went to school with.
Hang on.
Evan? Evan was having a fling.
Don't.
Where's the evidence?
Don't!
Babe!
A birthday card that was sent to the office.
OK, I think we need some wine.
No, no. I don't need wine.
I need my husband.
Hey.
Come on.
You're not alone here, OK?
You've got a large group of people around you that love you.
Hey.
Come here.
Right, I'll cook dinner, shall I?
Bloody hell, Lisa.
The kids have been through enough without you cooking for them!
Fair comment.
Right. Come on.
Some wine?
Right.
Here. It's here.
"Ten years ago today...
"..Faith made me happier than I thought possible.
"But here I am...
..ten years later.
..even happier...
..with a wife who is now a fluent Welsh speaker.
With two beautiful children.
So where are they?
Another one on the way.
And more in love than ever.
Ugh.
My family around me.
I'm living in the town where I was raised.
Faith and I want you all to know that we appreciate everything.
Before I get too soppy, Mam.
I love you all.
Here's to, here's to the next ten years.
CHEERING
May I say a word?
Evan, when you married this remarkable woman...
..I didn't just gain a daughter-in-law.
We both got a business partner too.
It's been a pleasure working with you, Faith.
I know you'll be back as soon as possible.
I'm determined that I'm not going to turn 60...
..with my handicap in double figures.
I've decided to call it a day.
I couldn't leave the company in better hands.
I'm hoping it will bring you all that you deserve.
Happy Wedding Anniversary.
Are you sure?
I'm sure.
Hi, Tom.
Officer, I think these documents are relevant to your enquiries.
1.25 million.
Faith said she didn't know the firm was in debt and I believe her.
Oh, right.
I won't be long.
There you are.
I need to fetch something from the car.
"I'm sorry I can't take your call at the moment.
"Please leave a message."
Evan, it's me again.
I need to know that you're OK.
Should I be frightened?
Strange men knocking on the door in the middle of the night.
A black BMW with dodgy plates, Evan.
If you don't want to come back to me...
..let me know something, please.
The girls keep asking...
The postman left this for you.
It feels like a brick.
Thank you, Eira.
Have you had any news of his whereabouts?
No.
You'd have heard if there was an accident.
Mind you, there was a man by the motorway in Port Talbot...
..stuck in a...
# I gave you all that you needed
# You're cut and I'm bleeding
# All of my strength, I gave to you
# I love completely
# But you'll lose then you'll leave me
# All of my hope left with you too
# But I gave my heart, whole, I did
# I gave my heart
# And although it's lost
# It's still beating
# And I gave my whole soul, I did
# I gave you myself #
Here you are!
Sorry, I just needed a minute.
It's from Evan.
To make up for the anniversary present.
Well, that's what it says on the card.
Oh, those green trainers.
Do you know what? Vic bought me a tub of anti-cellulite cream once.
What are you going to do then?
I'm going to speak to Saran.
Alright, OK.
Will you come with me?
Do you know what? I'll scratch her sexy little eyes out.
What do we do with the kids?
Do you want me to phone Marion?
No.
Hmm, could be.
A bit podgy, is that the best you can do?
Weak chin, flabby.
Come back tomorrow at ten. We'll try for an e-fit. Off you go.
Expenses?
Go on.
Have you checked?
Alright, Terr? Working hard?
I am.
How's Bronwen?
Thanks.
Bethan. Yes, great. One minute, sorry.
If a man's body does turn up, will you give me a ring straight away?
Thanks.
Bye now.
Nothing?
Your father-in-law brought these in. Why not Faith Howells?
It's a very difficult time for her.
I wanted to speak to you.
Perhaps PC Jones should take over.
No, Ma'am.
I'm capable of handling matters professionally, family or not.
If you say so.
Right, let's see what we've got.
Alright.
Right.
Are we ready?
You stay here.
It's between me and her.
Come on, Faith.
Hey, I love you.
Saran James?
Yes.
I'm Evan Howells's wife, Faith.
Oh.
Hi.
His sister phoned.
Is he still missing?
Maybe you could tell me as you're such good friends.
Is he here? Is he here?
Do you want to come in?
Is he here?
No.
Why would he be here?
You tell me.
Look, we're old school friends.
That's all.
Why hasn't he ever mentioned you?
The only time we ever... it was before you met.
So you slept with him.
If I knew something, don't you think I'd tell you?
I'm sorry.
My husband and I were having a meal.
Does the name Alec Fenton mean anything to you?
What?
We were all friends in primary school.
He and Evan used to sail together.
Alec drowned.
He was ten years old at the time.
Why do you ask?
It's just something I found.
He never mentioned him.
That's Evan all over.
What?
His family have always smothered him, haven't they?
I told him.
He should never have come home after university.
He had so many dreams.
Listen...
I'm sorry.
I'm going now.
Faith.
Are you alright?
So, what's the verdict?
Were they?
No.
Sorry, but she is fit.
He must have mentally shagged her. Even I was tempted...
BANG
DOOR LOCK
BANG
Aargh!
RHODRI CRIES
OK, sweetie.
Girls, it's bedtime.
I'll see to those.
What's wrong?
You two, come on. It's bedtime!
Sorry to disturb you, Marion.
It's late. Find Rhodri's pyjamas, please.
Lisa, help, please. Bed now!
Good evening, Mrs Howells.
What is it?
We'd like you to come with us. We've got a few questions.
You can ask them now. Fire away.
I'd prefer to do it at the station.
Come on then. In we go.
She won't be long.
It's OK.
# All the pain of it
# All the blame of it
# All the people ask if there's another name for it

Steve Baldini.
Is he a friend of yours?
He's a client.
Don't you live a colourful life?
