[talk, phones ringing]
You all right, Mel?
Morning.
How was your night last night?
MELANIE: Yeah, not bad. - Yeah?
MELANIE: How about you?
Yeah, it was OK.
[beeping]
[WHISPERING] Shit.
What have you done?
Grabbed a gold bullion from the vault?
Sorry, Melanie.
Can I have a word with you in my office, Ben?
[camera clicking]
HARRY: Why did she have to do it in the bank?
Only because she wanted to.
Who found her? - The other girl...
Louise Evans.
POLICEWOMAN: Can I get you some water?
LOUISE: No, thanks.
So why did you go and see Anna this morning, Louise?
Louise is clearly upset.
Can we do this another time?
It's fine, Mr. Borne.
We'd had an argument...
A stupid one about boyfriends.
I wanted to make it up.
POLICEWOMAN: And is there any reason
you know of that might make your friend
choose to take her own life?
No... no reason.
[crying]
Thank you.
I've, uh, I've just talked to my boss.
The general feeling is that we make an arrest,
contain that and the suicide as one story.
Arrest who?
Louise Evans.
No.
I'm giving it to you... access to her computer files,
telephone calls, emails... everything.
You should be able to bring some kind of case against her.
Cobbling together a case against Louise Evans
isn't the point.
Listen to this.
"I work for ZBG Bank in Canary Wharf.
I'm being threatened, forced against my will.
There's a big deal coming through.
I'm too scared to go to the police."
Young male rang through last night.
You haven't just got moles here.
They're all over the place.
You've got them down at Canary Wharf, too.
They've done a security check down there.
Things are meant to have tightened up.
Yeah, well, not enough.
We can't make any arrests until we're sure we got everyone.
Look, if they're going for the Lewis Stone deal, this is huge.
Louise Evans is just small fry.
HARRY: So what do we do?
Keep her out there.
Use her to lead us to them.
[music playing]
MANESH: Yep.
All right.
All right, yeah.
Fair deal, yeah?
No, no, no.
Don't pay me now.
[indistinct speech]
[laughs]
OK.
You, too.
OK.
Here I am, then.
All right.
What's up, bro?
What's up?
Security's tightened up, man.
Compliance is all over us, reviewing all our contracts.
I thought they were going to sack me today.
Well, did they?
They changed me from temp to permanent.
Well, then.
What a dim.
Maybe they know something's going down.
We could wait a bit, go for another deal
when things have cooled down.- Listen, listen, listen.
[bawking]
MANESH: The Ralindis have come through, man.
They're backing us now.
So we're going to move on to the next stage, as we agreed.
Have you chosen someone?
Good.
Melanie?
Jolly good. Right, listen.
Call me when you've got the account details.
Just keep your head down.
Stay safe, all right?
You didn't tell me the Ralindis are coming through.
What are their terms?
40%.
40%?
You haven't agreed, have you?
Yeah, we need them to do it.
You know, there are other people that can launder money.
Yeah, like who?
Like Russians or Albanians.
All right.
Go on.
You got an in with them?
Yeah, you're like this with the Russian Mafia, innit?
Huh?
You're a clown. Shut up.
Since when have you been in bed with the Ralindis?
Since you've been crying like a bitch.
[punch]
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
[grunting]
You sorry?
I'll sort the Ralindis.
You sort the bank contracts.
All this security... Someone's been talking.
Find out who.
I mean it.
[spits]
[coughs]
[music playing]
Have you talked to anyone?
What?
Have you?
Because I'm the one that gets hit in the face
for your big mouth.
I didn't do it.
I haven't!
We're dead.
Or you're dead.
Like Anna?
'Cause this is what's left of my friend.
All I've got is her passport to remember her by.
She took so many pills it would have killed an elephant,
and then she slit her wrists just to make sure.
You can't get rid of me that easy.
You've got to look me in the eyes when you do it,
you bastard.
[dance music playing]
CRAWFORD: How long has this been going on for?
About an hour.
Don't know what to do.
I thought she was going to chuck herself out the window.
Mind you, it would save on the paperwork.
You go on.
I'll deal with this.
What's going on in there?
LOUISE: She's on a bender.
She does it sometimes.
Who are you?
A friend.
She needs one of those at the moment.
Go on.
You go and sort her out.
Hello?
What are you doing here?
Hi.
I thought I'd drop by.
Come on, then.
[panting]
[laughing]
Whoa!
OK.
Hi.
I'm Crawford.
ERICA: I'm Erica.
Erica, does your mom do this often?
Only when she's sad or angry.
What is she now?
Both, I think.
[thumping on wall]
JUDY: Turn it down, love.
Oh, come on, Jud.
Come and join in.
JUDY: I'm going to sleep.
Oh, don't be such a bore, you silly cow.
Mom.
JUDY: Turn the thing down!
ERICA: Mom.
JUDY: You're the one who's being too loud.
- Come on. - Stop it, please.
- Come on.- Can we stop now, please?
Can we stop now, please?
Stop.
Sorry.
And say sorry to Judy.
Sorry, Jud.
There.
Is that all right?
Come on.
Let's go to bed.
Uh, I better go.
I just, uh... I just wanted to make
sure you were all right after the other night.
Don't. Stay.
I'll... I'll be...
I'll be two minutes.
Please.
Good night.
ERICA: Good night, Crawford.
[door closes]
LOUISE: A friend died.
I'm sorry.
She killed herself...
Stupid cow.
Who does that, eh?
However bad things get, you don't do that, do you?
CRAWFORD: Did you find her?
[crying]
There was so much blood.
I've never seen a dead person before.
Have you?
Yeah, I have.
It was all my fault.
Of course it wasn't your fault.
No.
I wasn't speaking to her because she got me into this stuff
with those guys at the club.
What stuff?
I can't... I can't tell you.
Is it really that bad?
Yeah, I think it is.
Well, then, go to the police.
I can't.
Why not?
Because I did something for them, and they paid me.
How much?
Look, I've never had money, and when
it's handed to you on a plate...
I paid off everything... my debts, my credit card.
Erica and I went and chose this.
I mean, she bounced on all the sofas in the shop.
10,000 pounds.
You see, I'm crap.
I'm fucking crap.
You take money from those sort of people,
and they'll never let you go.
Didn't you realize that? - I know.
But I'm good at looking on the bright side.
Go to the police.
If you've got something to tell them,
they're not going to give a toss about a new sofa.
I haven't always been completely straight.
Have you done something really bad?
Hmm?
Have you smashed in someone's kneecaps?
Have you chopped off someone's head?
Of course not. Of course not.
Then who cares?
They won't.
Do you really believe that?
Yeah, I do.
I do.
You're a nice man.
Louise, I have to go.
You're married.
No.
I'm just not a good bet.
I'm not talking about a relationship.
I'm talking about tonight.
Your friend's just died.
You're not thinking straight.
I want you to stay more than anything.
Bye.
CRAWFORD: Bye.
Right.
Big meeting with Lewis Stone coming up.
Now, if you want to walkthrough the deal with me,
then you're going to have to bone up on him, yeah?
I mean, it's a lot of work, so, I mean, if you...
You know, I can always get somebody else if you
think this is too much for you.- No.
I want to do it.
Good.
You won't regret it.
[chatter]
It's a surveillance hard drive.
It copies everything from the computer it's plugged into.
Where did you get it?
US.
RALINDI SON: What's this?
That's the software.
You've got to download it into the target computer
before the hard drive works.
There's 10 grand there from my dad.
Now, if you get nicked, he'll look after you as long
as you keep your mouth shut.
[music playing]
[beep]
[computer dings]
Damn.
What's happened?
Computer's crashed.
I've got to finish this by 10:00.
Well, I'm just about to go and get a cup of tea,
so you can use mine if you want.
Melanie, thanks.
You saved my life.
[exciting music]
[beep]
Hi.
All finished?
Thanks.
OK.
Hey, Harry.
What's going on?
There's, uh, there's been a security breach.
We need to sort it out before we call for any further review.
What do you mean?
Louise Evans went on the general server this morning.
She covered her tracks first, used a colleague's log-on.
She checked up on someone's bank account details...
Current account, credit cards...
Everything.
Who was it?
You.
[phone ringing]
PHILLIP [ON ANSWERING MACHINE]: Hi.
This is Phillip Manningham. Leave a message.
I have everything you could possibly
want on the Lewis Stone deal.
Do you know how much he's selling his company for?
Because I do.
I'll give it all to you if you just leave me alone.
I want out.
[thumping on door]
Who is it?
CRAWFORD: It's me, Crawford.
Go away.
CRAWFORD: Open the door.
What?
What the hell do you think you're
doing, having me checked up on?
Did Phillip Manningham put you up to this?
No.
I did it myself.
Why?
Because you were too good to be true...
I'll help you Louise. I'll look after you.
Wanker!
I was trying to help you.
What, by lying to me?
What was I going to say?
Good morning, Louise.
That was a great shag.
Oh, by the way, I'm a policeman.
You kept on at me about going to the police.
That's why you came round.
You go to the police, you have a better
chance of being treated right.
If we force you to come in, you'll be treated like shit.
How can you force me?
We can arrest you.
You've got nothing on me!
You took 10,000 pounds from Phillip Manningham.
How do you know I didn't sleep with him for it?
[scoffs]
I shouldn't have helped you out that night in the bar.
I should have just let them get on with it
and beat the crap out of you.
Why did you wade in?
I didn't need you.
- Oh, is that right? - Yeah.
I'm better on my own than when people
like you come and mess me up.
Oh, I messed you up?
Is that what last night was about?
I don't know what last night was about,
but I'm doing my best to forget it ever happened.
You turn yourself in, or you're going to prison.
If you're going to arrest me, why don't you do it now?
What are you waiting for?
[door slams]
[phone ringing]
Who is it?
Yeah, it's me.
Bring the Lewis Stone documents to Anna's funeral,
and I'll pick them up.
[beeps]
[camera clicking]
This is very good.
And you're supporting your family?
I like to see that.
Well, they've, uh... they've got
no one else to look after them.
That's not true.
They're linked to me now, and I look after my own.
Once this deal is done, if it's successful,
you could come work for me.
I'd be honored.
Shall we raise a glass, then?
To Mr. Lewis Stone and the future.
Sorry I'm late...
Terrible traffic.
Phillip Manningham, Mr. Ralindi.
Lovely to meet you.
Heard a lot about you.
Can we, um, lay for one more?
Can I get a glass of wine, as well?
And you are?
Manningham, Phillip...
Manesh's business partner.
Has he not told you about me?
Hurtful, man.
Anyway, I assume we're here to talk about our little business
deal and not the weather...
Or arranged marriages.
Well, Manesh and I are joined at the hip on this one.
I need him for Ben, and he needs me for my bank contacts,
speaking of which, I just spoke to someone
who knows Lewis Stone inside out,
from how he likes to take his tea in the morning to how much
he's aiming to sell his company for.
Chin-chin.
Well, Mr., um, Manningham, it sounds like you
are utterly indispensable.
And Manesh has been most remiss in not introducing us.
But I've just remembered I have another engagement.
[non-English]
You prick.
Mr. Ralindi.
Mr. Ralindi?
Mr. Ralindi.
I'm so sorry.
I like you, Manesh.
I like your energy.
I like the fact that you brought this deal to us.
But I don't like your partner.
Make sure we get this money and get rid of it,
and then we'll talk, yeah?
[camera clicking]
You're not going to believe who I've
just seen with Manesh Kunzru.
CRAWFORD: Manesh Kunzru... string of minor convictions.
Served a GBH sentence when he was 19 for knife assault...
Slashed up his girlfriend pretty badly...
Nothing since then.
Ralindi started out in human trafficking.
We suspected him of running a massive fraud a couple of years
ago, but we couldn't pin anything on him.
We might not bring him down with this one,
but we could wound him.
I'm upgrading this to armed ops.
Crawford will run it, reporting to me.
CRAWFORD: I don't think I should do this one.
I had that initial contact with Louise Evans.
I think you should find someone else.
No.
You had contact.
Let's use it.
Use her as an informant.
Louise Evans... pretty girl.
What's she like?
She's pretty tough.
Can we put pressure on her?
We have evidence against her.
Good.
You made contact before.
Make it again.
Let's bring her in.
[phone rings]
PRIEST: In the name of the father, the son,
and the holy spirit, behold, he is coming with the clouds,
and every eye will see him, including
those who pierced him.
All the tribes of the Earth will mourn over him.
Why did Auntie Anna go to heaven?
Because... because she wanted to.
Because it was her time.
Is it your time?
Oh, I'll be an old granny before they cart me off.
Hey.
Hello.
Hey.
How's my favorite little eight-year-old?
Did you get my text?
Hello, Louise.
Hi, Mr. Borne.
Hello, there.
Hi.
Phillip Manningham.
Hugh.
How are you bearing up?
Well, chucking the old shop, breathing the fresh air.
It's good out here.
Well, I will one day.
Louise, do you know the mother's name?
I need to be introduced.
[Erica giggling]
It's... it's Mandy.
Where's Mummy?
See you.
Have you got something for me?
Let go of her.
Erica. - Ooh.
Go on, then.
PHILLIP: Make interesting reading?
LOUISE: Yeah.
Well, how much is he selling the company for?
250 million pounds.
And you still don't want any part of it?
My god, Louise, this is freedom.
It's the rest of your life sorted.
Now that there seems to be a bit more going around, some of it
should come to you.
How does 200 grand sound?
No.
500,000 pounds in your name in a bank account in Dubai?
15 grand cash.
There's a name in there.
That person needs to be in the Canary Wharf team
working the Lewis Stone deal.
I'll need proof.
I can't do that.
Oh, come on, Louise.
You're enjoying this as much as I am.
You know you are.
Come on, Louise.
You'll make it work.
15 grand.
[laughs]
Good move.
Toodle pip.
Erica?
Erica!
There you are.
Crawford's a policeman.
He's got a police car and everything.
He said we could go through...
What are you doing with my daughter?
She's wandering about on her own.
You were too busy to notice.
We can go to the police station.
Shh.
Just carrying out some business
with Phillip Manningham?
LOUISE: Go and sit over there, OK?
And don't move.
Handing over stolen papers, you
could go down for three years.
You've been listening to my phone calls.
Oh, my god.
Yeah, well, I'm a policeman, Louise.
That's what we do.
And do police sleep with witnesses, or is that just you?
I want to help you, Louise.
You might not believe it, but it's true.
How can you help me?
You give us information.
We'll waive the charges.
God.
Louise, this is not a game.
You think you can play with Phillip Manningham
and walk away?
Well, there are other people involved here.
They will kill you and not think twice about it.
They'll kill Erica.
You're just trying to scare me.
You have no idea what you're dealing with, do you?
You ring me before you find out.
[speaking quietly]
Oh.
Hello.
Can I give you a lift?
Oh, I can't.
I've got my little girl with me.
- You're taking her to work?- Yeah.
But I thought we were going to the police station.
[laughs nervously]
She's joking. - Please, please.
Let me give you a lift.
OK.
That's very kind.
Get in, Erica.
HUGH: There we go.
There we go.
Mind your fingers, eh?
There we go.
Seat belt.
[suspenseful music]
Excuse me, please.
I need to see Phillip Manningham.
Will you tell him Hugh Borne is here?
I don't want to disturb you if Phillip's not here.
Do I look like you're disturbing me, huh?
I've heard a lot about you...
Hugh, Phillip's mucker from the old days, the man
who brought us Lewis Stone.
Well, I just thought it, uh...
I just... just, it might be the right idea...
Well, it's good to finally meet you.
It's good to meet you, too.
So what's up, then?
It's got to be something important to bring you down
here.
No, not really, no.
It's just something at the bank.
And, um... well, if...
If Phillip's not coming, I'll come back another time, then.
Phillip and me are business partners.
You can tell me everything.
What's happened in the bank?
Nothing.
Is the deal off?
Because if it is, I'm going to kill you.
I'm going to kill your wife and the kids.
What's going on here? Let him go.
Shut up!
I asked you a question.
What's happened at the bank?
It's Louise Evans.
I think she's gone to the police.
MANESH: Who's Louise Evans?- Doesn't matter.
It's nobody.
I'll sort it out.
She's one of your contacts, isn't she?
Huh?
[phone rings]
Hello?
Phillip?
Hello, Louise.
Nice to speak to you.
That does not sound like nobody to me.
Ah!
[screaming]
Do you know Louise Evans?
Hmm?
Bring her to me.
MARK: We are in the process of setting
up a totally secure account for the money to go into.
LEWIS: So after fees and interest, what am I looking at?
You're looking at about 250 million pounds,
give or take the odd bar.
This is my new boat.
She travels at 14 knots.
Oh.
Now, once this deal's done, I'm going
to take you both out on her.
I'd like to talk with each of you
about the future, about what you want to do,
who you want to be... - Star Watch.
LEWIS:... how you're going to get there.
In exchange, I want you to give me everything you've got
over the next couple of weeks.
You go to sleep thinking about my deal.
You wake up thinking about my deal.
You don't just work for me.
You are me.
Listen, I... I think I can speak
for both of us when I say that we're going
to give 110% to this, Lewis.
Now, is there anything else that you'd
like to raise at this point?
Yeah.
The transaction team at Canary Wharf,
I mean, at the end of the day, they're
the people moving the money, pressing the buttons.
I'd like to check up on them personally.
Good call, Louise.
Let's work with people we can trust.
Does Lewis Stone always name his bank
accounts after his boats?
MARK: How'd you work that one out?
The photo.
Now here's the name on the screen.
Yeah, at least ever since I've known him.
And it's a toss pot affectation, but we have to humor it.
How many people know about it?
Uh, the people around him, I suppose.
Why?
No reason.
Did you know Phillip Manningham when he worked here?
Phillip Manningham?
I think he was seeing Anna.
No. He can't have been.
She wouldn't have been, uh, clever
enough or posh enough for him.
You involved with him?
No.
Good.
Well, stay clear of him.
I hear he's gone to the dogs.
[typing]
Don't stay up too late.
[phone rings]
[sighs]
Have you thought about what I said this morning?
Yes.
CRAWFORD [ON PHONE]: And?
[snapping]
I'll work with you.
I need to do it on my own terms.
I'm coming in.
I'll tell you everything I know.
[beeps]
[clicks]
Oh, there we go again.
What's that?
Must be someone coming.
[beeping]
Who is it?
Come on.
[suspenseful music]
[clicking]
Come on.
[beeps]
It won't open.
What are you doing?
Well, the lift wasn't working, so we took the stairs.
[beeps]
Looks fine to me.
Oh, hello.
Uh, yeah, I think we can deal with all this tomorrow.
She does have her daughter with her.
I can personally vouch for her.
Very good, Mr. Borne.
As long as you say so.
I do say so.
Thank you very much, now.
Here we go.
Oh, thank you very much.
Ah, security can be a bit OTT.
Hello, again.
Sorry.
She's not usually shy.
Yes.
I usually have that effect on people.
[chuckles]
Boo!
Yes, why don't I give you a lift home?
My car's parked in the car park outside.
Well, you need to get home, and, uh, well, you look all in.
Oh.
That's great.
Thank you.
She's down already.
How's life at the bank?
Yes, fine, thank you.
Lewis Stone deal's quite a big thing for you, isn't it?
Did Mark tell you I was on that?
Hmm? Yeah.
I'm just over here, so you take the first left.
You missed the turn-in.
What are you doing?
Stop the car.
I can't. I'm sorry.
I'm just the errand boy.
Mr. Borne.
You're the one who told Phillip about the Lewis Stone deal.
You knew he'd named the account Star Watch after his boat.
I've got three boys in public school,
and I've got a house with Avery big mortgage and a wife
with very expensive tastes.
I'm very sorry, but you're going to have to come along with me.
I don't know what you're doing,
but you saw me talking to Phillip this morning.
Everything's fine between us.
It's not about Phillip.
This is about his partner.- His partner?
Have you met his partner?
You're just about to.
Please, let me out of the car.
I can't.
I'm sorry.
I'll do everything I can.
Everything you can?
Well, just let me out of the car, then.
I can't.
But my little girl.
Can't we drop her back at my flat?
It's got nothing to do with her.
They told me to come straight...
Look, I'll call my neighbor.
I won't even get out of the car.- No.
Have you told them that she's with me?
Because they won't like it.
Please.
Please, Mr. Borne.
All right.
But if they're out, she comes with us, right?
You just don't try anything funny!
I'm... I'm... I'm not going to try anything.
[beeps]
HUGH: Put it on speaker phone.
OK, OK.
HUGH: Just put it on speaker phone.
OK. OK.
[phone rings]
CRAWFORD [ON PHONE]: Louise.
John, hi.
Could I ask you and Judy a massive favor?
I've gone and got myself a date, and I need to get rid of Erica.
Could you look after her for me?
Of course.
You could just put her to bed in my flat
and listen out for her through the wall.
Is that OK?
No probs.
OK, thanks.
Bye.
Nick, get down to Louise Evans' building,
and bring backup... now.
[exciting music]
- Should I take her in? - No.
I'm taking her in.
Give me your phone.
[locks click]
[knocks]
Ah, hello.
Look, I'm afraid I haven't even let Louise out of the car.
You know what it's like when mums put their children to bed.
It could take forever.
And we're late for our dinner, so can I just...
That's all right.
I'll settle her.
Night, night.
We're late for our dinner, so.
Shh, shh, shh.
Go, go, go, go.
Girl is in the house.
She's in the house.
[music playing]
I'm on it.
He's picking up the A106, Bethnal Green, High Street.
I'll be there in five minutes.
[buzzes]
[knocking]
BODYGUARD: Come here. - What?
OK! - Come on.
- OK! - Up!
OK!
Up, up, up, up, up.
Up!
Stop.
You're pushing me.
[sizzling]
I'm going.
OK.
What's happening?
They pulled around the back.
Shit.
Is this the girl?
Have you been talking to the police?
No.
[slapping] Oh!
- Have you? - No!
[grunting]
Go home and lock up!
Enough!
Take her next door.
[panicked breathing] BODYGUARD: Let's go.
Get up.
Come on.
[grunting]
Should we follow him?
No.
We stay put until she comes out.
[footsteps approaching]
MANESH: See this?
This belonged to my grandfather.
When he died, this was the only thing he gave me.
It meant everything.
He was the business.
It was him that got off that boat, pack on his back,
this in his pocket... Nothing else.
Do you know how he started out?
He could scalp people.
Well, you needed to have skill in the early days.
Stupid fucks on the street didn't know the difference
between a American Indian and an Asian Indian,
so he put the fear of God into them.
And he taught me how to do.
See, what you do is you start off behind the ear,
and you make a sharp incision.
The police are on to you, but I didn't go to them.
I promise.
They're outside this building now.
Bullshit.
They were on to you before I came in on this.
You've got a leak.
That first night in the pub, when Phillip approached me,
they were there.
The man who helped me get away was
a plain clothes police officer.
He didn't tell me who he was, but I checked him out.
I went into his bank account details.
This is all bullshit.
I swear to God, it's not.
It's not.
Ah!
The police?
Look, they can't know that much because if they did,
they'd have arrested me, or they'd be in there now,
arresting all of us.
They must need more evidence or something.
You could be working for them.
I would never work for the police.
And why didn't you tell Phillip?
Because I don't trust Phillip.
It's that tosser, Hugh Borne.
He's the one who squealed.
All I want is to come out of this free,
with a few quid in my pocket and a new life for me
and my daughter to move onto.
You've got a daughter?
Yeah.
[gasps]
You don't want anything bad to happen to her, do you?
[CRYING] Please don't hurt her.
Please don't hurt her.
I'll do anything.
Please don't hurt her.
Please.
Listen, so she'll be all right.
She'll be all right.
But first, you gotta help me.
[crying]
[solemn music]
[screeching]
Are you all right?
Where were you?
[panting]
