00:00Do they know where she is?
00:28Well, from what I hear, touch and go.
00:31Poor girl.
00:33And there's still a crazy gunman on the loose.
00:35You'd get yourself a while in your honeymoon.
00:38I would.
00:39Far away from this place as possible.
00:41Who would do such a thing?
00:43Drugs gangs, surely?
00:45Wrong place, wrong time.
00:50It could have been anybody.
00:53Does anything around here happen by accident?
00:56So why is this all gone?
01:07You've got nothing to worry about.
01:11Jack!
01:18Just get your teeth brushed.
01:20I'm doing it!
01:21Well, do it faster.
01:22Get your teeth brushed.
01:25Now, I'm doing it faster!
01:37Look, I know what you're thinking, but trust me, Oscar, it's got nothing to do with the
01:59gun that you found. All cos I handed that one into the police, yeah? Just trust me.
02:06This is London, mate. Lots of gangs, lots of crime. So just forget you ever saw it, yeah?
02:14Okay. Good lad. You all right? Yeah, just, you know, Raymond giving me the run around.
02:27Oh. Well, I'm sorry, I just got chatting and everyone's still in shock. Oh, what, the gossip's
02:34out already, is it? No, people are just worried, that's all. No, I'm sorry, just a tough morning,
02:42that's all. Okay. All right, well, look, I'll go and sort Raymond out, right? Right, I'm coming
02:50up. And them teeth better be brushed.
02:53Nigel! Nigel, you all right, mate? Yeah, yeah, well, I want to get some breakfast at the
03:07cat foot. It's like a war zone out there. You know, ambulances, guns. Take my life.
03:12Well, but we can go with breakfast now, if you like. All the danger's gone. There's no danger
03:16there at the moment. All right? Yeah, I can't. I can't be there. I can't be there. I can't
03:18be there. Yeah. That's what I want. She's always on the phone. It's like I said, mate,
03:23I'm sure it's nothing. No! No, no, no, no, no! Julie? You all right? Oh, no. The girls
03:33and David. Well, I know what we're having for dinner. It's not a chalk! You all right,
03:50Al? You all right? I can't even look colder than then. Thanks, Fred. Listen, I'm not gonna
03:56lie, it's been as stressful, won't it? I don't care. What were you doing here? Oh, I thought
03:59I'd help out. Nanny Jean's a mess. You know what she's like with her nerves. Yeah, it's really
04:03kind of you, mate, but you might as well stand down, cos we are not opening today. Well,
04:07no, it just doesn't seem right, what with CSI Abbott Square going on out there. What's
04:11the latest? Well, Zoe, hopefully she's through her bird cat, you know? She's gone there a
04:16bit early, because visiting hours do not apply to our cat, does it? You're welcome. You
04:22ain't down there. Because I'm looking after the boys, and I'll give them a day off school.
04:25You know, I'm gonna ask you all sorts of questions that I obviously don't know the answers
04:28to. You know what those boys need? Go on, what? They need some time with their fun cousin,
04:32Alfie, while you go and spend that time with Cat. Are you sure you'll look after the boys,
04:37yeah? I mean, gaming and day-eating peaks, of course I will. Hey, come here, you mate,
04:42you legend. I love you. I love you, too. Well, listen, whoever's done all this,
04:48you'll catch them. Yeah. Come here. See you later. Right, got some good news!
04:59This is not a good time. Denise is upstairs. The police are all over the square, and you're
05:03sitting on top of a smoking gun. A gun that can be traced back to some very dangerous people,
05:06Jack. Keep your voice down. I need it getting rid of. Yeah, well, every cop in the borough
05:11is looking for you and your network right now. What have you said? We always look into the
05:16usual suspects. So if you panic, you're gonna expose yourself. I'll get it! Listen, I know
05:21what I'm talking about, all right? I do this for a living. You lay low, and when the heat
05:24dies down, I'll get rid of it. Jack? Dear Spencer? All right, Gav. Just got a few questions
05:41about this shooting. David Peckham was the most beautiful cockerel you've ever seen! Yeah, but it's just,
05:53it's just a chicken. How could you say that? You know, someone out of there actually got
05:59shot last night, didn't you? They were part of our family, just like any of the pets, and
06:04not only that, they were a symbol of our marriage and edge and of our love. Please don't argue!
06:10It was probably just a fox that got him or something. Well, how did a fox get in the coop?
06:20Oh, Nigel. Did you feed the chickens last night? Oh, God. Wow, Gav. How many years do I have to serve before I can afford a place like this?
06:40Well, I reckon you'd have to be Chief Inspector these days. You've got some flats as well, haven't you?
06:45I've heard Ravi Galati rents one of them. Yeah, you've been doing your own work.
06:49I need to if I want to be Chief Inspector. Not like I'm investigating you or anything.
06:53Ha-ha-ha. Nah, you're right. I'm impressed. So, what of it?
07:00His name came up. Bullet from last night's been linked to a gun that's been involved in a number of drug-related incidents.
07:06Well, his name comes up a lot. And it never leads to anything.
07:11You didn't suppose you saw him last night, did you? I heard there was some sort of celebration going on.
07:17Well, I was at the pub for a bit. I might have seen Ravi there too. But, erm, I was back over here with my family at the time of the shooting.
07:23OK. Well, if you hear anything.
07:27Of course. I'll, er, I'll let you know.
07:33Did you a coffee?
07:35Oh, she ain't got time for coffee. Now she's on the fast track of the Chief Inspector.
07:40Next time.
07:49You meant to look for Ravi last night. So why didn't you tell her that?
07:54Well, I was, er, I didn't find her. So what's the point?
07:57Well, she's investigating and you're not being honest with her.
08:03You sure you didn't see her?
08:04No. No, I told you.
08:06Right, it don't look good down the station if I've had anything to do with Ravi.
08:09Eh, it wouldn't look good with it.
08:13So just trust me, yeah?
08:16Yeah.
08:17Look, I ain't got nothing more to tell ya.
08:25The nurse said you kept pressing the panic button last night.
08:27Can you just drop it?
08:28You couldn't stand being on your own?
08:30That nurse needs to mind her own business.
08:33You can't smoke that in here.
08:34Who's gonna care?
08:35I care.
08:36Oi! Give it back!
08:37Oh!
08:38Hey, hey, hey! Girls, wanna take it down a notch?
08:40Come on. You and the stiffs in the morgue are asking you to pipe down.
08:43Well, do us a favour and go stay with them.
08:46Oh, like that is it, eh?
08:47Well, I'm so glad I didn't stop at a petrol station to get you flowers,
08:49but I'll tell you what I did get you.
08:51Dug her out of my drawer and it's one of me old phones.
08:53There you go. You can stick your sin in that.
08:56Do me a favour. Get rid of her.
08:58Oi!
08:59I just wanna keep you safe.
09:01There's someone out there that wants you dead. You said so last night.
09:04I was off me head!
09:05I've got an enemy out there.
09:07Those are the words you used. Who?
09:09Eh? Who are you scared of? Who are you running from?
09:11Zoe, why don't you just tell us where you are?
09:15I promise we ain't gonna judge you.
09:18Okay.
09:22That's it. Thank you.
09:32I know how much you love them.
09:34I love them.
09:36I love them too.
09:41It's alright. They're just chickens.
09:46They're just chickens.
09:50Don't treat me like an idiot.
09:52They're not just chickens.
09:55You know that and I know that.
09:57It's okay.
09:58You're doing it again.
09:59You're treating me like a child.
10:01It's not okay.
10:04Symbol of our marriage.
10:06That's what you said those chickens were.
10:08It's just something we did together.
10:10Something that brought us closer, Nigel.
10:12Closer, but we've...
10:14We've always been close, haven't we?
10:17Yeah, of course we have.
10:18You...
10:23You remember that...
10:24love patch we went through, though, don't you?
10:25You remember that, right?
10:29No.
10:30I don't.
10:31I'm sorry.
10:33It's okay. You don't have to be sorry.
10:37Who's sorry?
10:38I'm sorry.
10:41I'm sorry.
10:44You're sorry.
10:45Who's sorry?
10:49What happened?
10:51What aren't you telling me?
10:55Ed, it was five or six years ago, Nigel.
10:57We got through.
10:58I don't know what you're talking about.
11:00Please, just tell me.
11:01I had an affair.
11:08Hey, listen, man, I'm getting bad phone calls, man.
11:11People are hella jumpy right now.
11:12What are you saying?
11:13What are you saying?
11:14The shooting looks back to us, isn't it?
11:16Right, listen, I've told the guys above them sorting it, yeah?
11:20And I've also told them once it's done, we're getting out.
11:22Wait, hold on.
11:24You can't be serious, right?
11:25Hey, it's too close to home and I don't need this.
11:27They ain't gonna like that, you know?
11:29Yeah, but they don't have a choice.
11:31Maybe some poor woman for dead in the middle of the square.
11:33There's some proper dodgy people round.
11:36I heard it was all to do with the drug gangs.
11:40What are you looking at him for?
11:41No, I'm not.
11:42Ain't your husband in prison?
11:43Ex-husband.
11:44Oh, whatever.
11:46What are you beefing with her for?
11:47I don't know, she started it.
11:48Honestly, some people round here...
11:50About stirring things up, are you?
11:51Who, me?
11:52Mmm.
11:53Ha-ha.
11:54Ha-ha.
11:55I don't know, she started it.
11:56Honestly, some people round here...
11:58About stirring things up, are you?
12:00Who, me?
12:01Mmm.
12:02Ha-ha.
12:04Dad?
12:05Have you a lardy?
12:07We're gathering witness statements about the shooting.
12:09I wondered if you could answer some questions down the station,
12:12if you don't mind.
12:13At the station? Why?
12:14You ain't got nothing to do with it.
12:15Tell him you ain't got nothing to do with it.
12:17No, of course I haven't.
12:18And, yeah, we could talk wherever you like.
12:22I've got nothing to hide.
12:24It was a horrible mistake.
12:32And it very nearly broke us, but we worked on our marriage, Nigel,
12:37and you find a way to forgive me, and we've been happy.
12:40We've been really happy.
12:42Another man?
12:43You...
12:44You were with another man?
12:46So, uh, do I need to put that in a book?
12:49I...
12:50Nigel, I've been loyal to you ever since, even when you walked out on me.
12:56Just...
12:58Think about how happy we've been.
13:05You're still cheating on me.
13:10You've been...
13:11on the phone...
13:12to another man.
13:15Sneaking off.
13:16Making calls.
13:17Nigel, you're getting confused, sweetheart.
13:19No, no, he's right.
13:20You have been on the phone.
13:22Well, that was...
13:23that was about the delivery of the car.
13:24No, no, after that...
13:26we've both seen you.
13:27She had an affair.
13:28Look, that was years ago, and we've worked on our marriage, Nigel.
13:31And she's cheating on me again.
13:33She's doing it again.
13:36Look.
13:37The calls, okay?
13:40It was a headmaster from the local school.
13:42You've been having an affair with a headmaster?
13:44No, no.
13:45It was about a position at the school.
13:47Look, if I'm gonna be here,
13:48and I'm gonna help contribute towards the cost of your care package,
13:51then I need to get a job.
13:52Well, I've got that covered.
13:53Well, I've got that covered.
13:54Yeah, I don't wanna live on your handouts, thanks, Phil.
13:56You don't need your money for the care package.
13:59I will pay for the care package.
14:01We both know you can't do that.
14:02Don't you patronise me!
14:04Come on, Phil, we're going.
14:07I can't be around here.
14:10We're not now, not after this.
14:13Right.
14:14Pack a bag.
14:15We're going on a trip.
14:16Yeah, that's it.
14:17A trip.
14:19I will pay for my care package.
14:23Sir.
14:24Knowledge.
14:25I don't think this is the answer, mate.
14:28I want to go on a trip.
14:29I need to go on a trip to the countryside today.
14:32Please, Phil.
14:33I can't be here.
14:34I can't be around here now.
14:35Please.
14:36All right, then.
14:37Thanks.
14:38Thank you so much, officers.
14:39Seriously, you're like your national heroes.
14:41God bless you.
14:42I thought you'd be happy.
14:43But I got caught in a gangland shooting.
14:44I'm not saying that.
14:45I'm just saying that if they look at a gang's and they don't think it's anything personal,
15:07that means you're safe.
15:11safe. Have you even got rid of the guard? Yeah. It's great.
15:16Chloe is better than great, darling. Means I don't have to have extra security at the
15:20Queen Vic and I can cancel the bulletproof windows. Why would I be going to the Vic?
15:25It's somewhere to recover. Me? Come stay with you? I ain't going anywhere with you.
15:31I ain't having this. This ain't fair. You're my daughter, whether you like it or not.
15:35I don't like it. Last night, you told me you had kids. No, I didn't. And that they died.
15:46Zoe, please just talk to me. I ain't got a clue what you're talking about. I saw the
15:50tattoo on your stomach. Can you just drop it? Darling, please. I want to know who you
15:56are and what you've gone through. I can see you're hurting. I just want to take away the
16:01pain. Get out! No, not till you talk to me. I said get out! Oh, okay. Just, it's
16:08okay. Why don't we just give her some space, yeah?
16:12Do you remember where you were on the 8th of July this year?
16:38How about the 3rd of February? I mean, I could probably work it out. But what is this?
16:53We've had two previous drug-related shootings in the borough. Ballistic reports show that
16:58the bullets were fired from the same gun. The gun that was used on Albert Square last night.
17:03Sounds like you've got a rogue shoot on your hands. Or an active OCG. We made some arrests
17:10in both incidents. And do you know what the suspects all had in common?
17:14Surprise me. They all had your number in their phone. Just be straight with us. We all know
17:21what you do for a living. I'm a businessman who used to run a restaurant. And my mob on number
17:29was used for taking bookings. A lot of people are...
17:33Three separate shootings? All of them linked to you?
17:36Linked to me? Really? No, no. It's just, if you had anything concrete, I'd be in handcuffs
17:42right now and you'd be reading me and my rights, wouldn't you?
17:44I don't believe in coincidences, Mr Galati. And I've got three witnesses who all saw you
17:50leaving the Queen Victoria pub about an hour before the shooting. If you don't have an alibi,
17:56it starts to look a little dicey for you. So, where were you?
18:01I was with one of your lot. Detective Inspector Jack Brennan.
18:18Looks like you're gonna be here all day. I'm gonna go get you a coffee and a little blanket.
18:23Oh, jeez. Caleb? Busy day? Erm, yeah. Yeah, I'm not working the case. I'll get the glamorous ones.
18:31What, a woman short on the street? That's glamorous, is it?
18:33Oh, no, no, no. I'm not saying that. I'm joking. Right. Yeah.
18:44Oi! What are you all lot doing with Ravi? What? Flush me.
18:48Well, they dragged him down the station, said he hasn't been arrested, but they ain't gonna tell me
18:51how long they're gonna keep him for or what they've even got on him.
18:53Priya, I can't help you, all right? I'll show you.
18:56Oh, this is why I hate the police!
19:01You tell Jack Ravi didn't even know that woman.
19:04And what makes you think Jack's got anything to do with this?
19:07Well, he's a copper, isn't he? And he's always had it in for Ravi.
19:10Green-eyed monster and all that. Don't ask me why.
19:15And, er, do you know where Ravi was at the time of the shooting?
19:20No. Why?
19:23Do you know something about this?
19:25No.
19:27Do you?
19:29Yes. I know that Ravi is innocent.
19:33Oh.
19:34Oh.
19:47Dear Spencer.
19:51I hear you've got Ravi Gulati in.
19:53Just for questioning.
19:54But he reckons he's got an alibi for the time of the shooting.
19:59Did you check it out?
20:00No.
20:02Not yet, gov.
20:03Why not?
20:06It's all right.
20:07I'll get it.
20:08It's no one who, er, trusts you or something.
20:20Right, you're a good cop with a lot of potential, but I need your discretion on this.
20:24Sure.
20:26Like you, I believe Ravi's wrapped up in all sorts.
20:30But the guy lives on my street, yeah?
20:33He rents one of my flats.
20:35And our kids, they go to the same sixth form.
20:38So I figure if I can get his trust and recruit him as an informant, he might be useful to me.
20:44And that's why you were with him last night?
20:48Yeah.
20:50I didn't want to say anything because I wanted him onside.
20:53But if we played him smart and bide our time, I reckon we can use him to bring down the network.
20:59We?
21:01Yeah.
21:03So, if you haven't got anything on him right now, let's play the long game, just let him go.
21:10Yeah?
21:14There is so much she ain't telling me.
21:24Yeah, I know, I know, Cat, but sometimes you have to build that trust back up.
21:28She can trust me with anything.
21:30Okay.
21:31Listen, you know how much I love you from the bottom of my heart, and this comes with tons and tons of love,
21:35but all this yelling and shouting doesn't scream approachable to me.
21:39Oh, shut up.
21:40Okay, see, that's what I'm talking about, okay?
21:42You're being very spiky.
21:45Just like the Zoe, a chip off the old block.
21:47So, what are you saying?
21:48What I'm saying, Cat, is like, you're like a bull in the china shop.
21:50That's your usual style now.
21:52Just leave me out, maybe.
21:54If you took, you know, the softly, softly approach, you know,
21:58maybe it'd be like trying to get you to speak a foreign language.
22:02Hey, come on.
22:03You think you could do it?
22:05Oui, monsieur.
22:06Yes.
22:07Muah!
22:36Well, you think you're funny, do you?
22:40Trying to drop me in it?
22:41You talked your way out of it, then.
22:42Oh, I've been in worse scapes than that, mate.
22:45Why'd you do it?
22:46It's only going to delay us trying to get rid of this gun.
22:48You needed a reminder that we are in this together.
22:54If I go down, you're coming with me.
22:56Well, you're not holding all the guards this time, Jack.
22:59Because you're the one who pulled the trigger.
23:05What do you want from me?
23:08I need that gun destroyed, and so do the people I work with.
23:11No, no, I'm not waiting any longer.
23:14Okay.
23:15But we do this as I say.
23:17Because I know where the cameras are,
23:18and I know how to avoid a tail.
23:21And this ain't the first time I've ever had evidence.
23:25Why don't we give it a couple of hours, all right?
23:27And then we'll do it.
23:29Jack.
23:34Who would have thought, you know,
23:36you and me working together?
23:38Well, if I like the work,
23:42there could be a future in that.
23:44A guy like you could make a lot of money.
23:48Dream on.
23:49Well, I'm not.
23:50I'm not.
23:51I'm not.
23:52I'm not.
23:53I'm not.
23:54I'm not.
23:55I'm not.
23:56I'm not.
23:57I'm not.
23:58I'm not.
23:59I'm not.
24:00I'm not.
24:01I'm not.
24:02I'm not.
24:03I'm not.
24:05I'm not.
24:06You're still young.
24:07That's your fault.
24:08There's so much you have to know.
24:13Find a girl.
24:15Settle down.
24:16If you want, you can marry.
24:20Look at me.
24:22I am old, but unhappy.
24:27I was once like you are now.
24:31And I know that it's not easy to be calm.
24:36Oh.
24:46Nige, I understand.
24:47You want to get away from Julie.
24:49I get that, yeah?
24:50But why come here?
24:52This is where the treasure is.
24:54Treasure?
24:56Buried treasure.
24:57From our care plan.
24:59Nige, what is this?
25:01Time will tell, Phil.
25:03Time will tell.
25:06What happened to Mary?
25:29Yeah! All right! All right! I'm coming!
25:31Sorry, Gov. I know it's late. Have you got a minute?
25:36Er, yeah. Just go for a good kitchen.
25:39Thanks.
25:48I've been thinking about Robbie Galassi,
25:50and recruiting him as an informant is one thing,
25:52but if we found that gun, we'd have enough to put him away, I'm sure of it.
25:56And having guys like that out on the street, when we know what he's done,
26:00what he's capable of, just doesn't sit well with me.
26:05And, look, maybe I'm too new at this, I don't know,
26:08but we're police officers, right?
26:11We put the bad guys away.
26:14Should we talk to the super about this?
26:16No, no, no, it's all right.
26:19Listen, just give me a minute, yeah?
26:21Yeah, sure.
26:23What?
26:30We good, yeah?
26:32What are we meeting?
26:33Er, something's come up.
26:35What are you talking about?
26:37Look, we're gonna have to do something other time.
26:40Oi! Oi, don't mess me around.
26:43You do as I say, you hear me.
26:45I'm in charge now, me.
26:49I'm in charge.
26:52It's like you're in charge of a sleeping agent.
26:56I'll give a mín so I have to do something else,
26:58muck your Wähler.
27:00You do as a check.
27:01I'm going to be with the service firewall to the store.
27:03No it sounds very good.
27:05OK.
27:07No it s-
27:08Oh!
27:10I'm done.
27:11I'm done for your Yap hoe.
