00:00I have no
00:29idea how Ray's body
00:32ended up in the back of my van, but I know
00:34for a fact that it wasn't
00:36me that put him there. Who do you think did that?
00:38I don't know, but it has to be someone
00:40from round here.
00:41And someone with a good reason
00:44to want Ray dead.
00:51Ray is a true predator.
00:56He preyed upon April. He's
00:58malignant, beyond saving, and
01:00he's never going to stop.
01:03Not until someone makes him.
01:06On that we're agreed.
01:12The last thing we want to do is make things worse.
01:14Worse? How could things possibly be worse?
01:16She's leaving with them to protect us.
01:18It should be me protecting her.
01:20No, love, I know.
01:21But the important thing
01:22is getting April back.
01:24If they're there, then call me and we'll figure out
01:27what to do next. Like what?
01:28Like, get some kind of backup.
01:32They're not taking her away from us.
01:33They're not. I won't let them.
01:34They're not.
01:36They're not.
01:37They're not.
01:37That's it.
01:38I won't let them.
01:38I don't know.
02:08I don't know.
02:38It's me.
02:47It really is you.
02:50Graham.
02:51You're alive.
03:02How is this possible?
03:04I can't be long.
03:10I know April's in trouble.
03:11How do you know?
03:12And I've only got a short window to help.
03:17Here, drink this.
03:19How are you here?
03:23We haven't got time for this.
03:26I'm sorry I went away.
03:27Went away?
03:29You died.
03:31Six years ago.
03:32The Billy and Priya found you.
03:34They...
03:34They saw you dead.
03:38Marlott went to prison for your murder.
03:39I'm sorry.
03:42I'll tell you everything.
03:43Rona, please stop.
03:46Trust me.
03:47Trust you?
03:48Yes.
03:49You know me.
03:50No.
03:51I grieved you.
03:54And now here you are.
03:56Back from the dead.
03:57The last time I saw you...
04:02We were on the verge of running away together.
04:05And you told me.
04:07In this house.
04:08You swore to me.
04:09That you would make me happy.
04:12You promised you wouldn't let anything bad happen.
04:15And then you were gone.
04:18Dead.
04:20But now here you are.
04:21I'm sorry.
04:22I don't need.
04:23Your apologies.
04:24I just need to understand.
04:28It's the only way I could protect you from Kim.
04:31She would never have let us be happy together.
04:34Kim grieved you as much as anyone.
04:36No, no.
04:37When I left you that day to meet Marlon,
04:40I stopped by home farm.
04:43I think I hoped Kim and I could part.
04:45If not reasonably, then...
04:48At least less...
04:50Acrimoniously.
04:51Two hundred and fifty grand.
04:53And I want guarantees.
04:55Sixty grand.
04:55Upfront cash.
04:56Tonight.
04:57I do this now.
04:59And is that your life?
05:02It has to be done right.
05:04I'm thinking the quarry.
05:05Or the lake.
05:06No, no, no.
05:06Too risky.
05:07Look, Graham got bored of playing house with Rona.
05:11And Molly Bolt disappeared to start his new life without her.
05:15That's what everyone has to think.
05:18No trace of him anywhere.
05:21Oh, my God.
05:24I knew it.
05:25I knew Kim had tried to have you killed, but no one could prove it.
05:29Hearing Kim, it made me realise what I already knew.
05:34She was never going to let us walk into the sunset and be happy.
05:39It wasn't up to her.
05:40She couldn't have stopped us.
05:41She could and she would.
05:43Kim doesn't like to lose.
05:44Definitely not to me.
05:46I couldn't put you and Leo through all that.
05:48Are you really putting all of this on Kim?
05:50No, not entirely.
05:51She was only one part of my growing, um...
05:54You're growing what?
05:55Guilt, doubt, fear.
05:58About what we were doing.
06:00Ripping Leo away from his home, his dad, his sister.
06:04He would have broken him.
06:04And you.
06:11So...
06:12Better to rip off the plaster.
06:15I've done with me.
06:17Before I made things any worse for you.
06:19So you played dead to avoid facing me?
06:22That wasn't the plan.
06:23Oh, there was a plan?
06:23When I left you, I was all in.
06:27But, um...
06:28Hearing Kim, once I knew she would hunt me down...
06:32I reached out to an old friend from the SAS.
06:35Asked him to help me relocate.
06:38On my own.
06:42Right.
06:44So even if Pierce hadn't have attacked you...
06:47You had no intention of coming back for me.
06:49Right.
06:57I see.
06:58No, you don't.
06:59No, you're right, I don't.
07:01I still don't get why faking your death was the answer.
07:04I went looking for Marlon to tell him about Pierce being out of prison.
07:09To tell him to make sure you were protected.
07:11To apologise to him for the way I was with him...
07:14...for ever planning to take away his boy.
07:16And to ask him to...
07:19...apologise for me.
07:22To you.
07:24For leaving.
07:25Show her the man that you are!
07:28Dare not rely on if I'll do anything to stop her being hurt!
07:38You hero.
07:40Then Pierce came out of nowhere.
07:42I was so close to killing him.
07:52But I couldn't.
07:55I spared Pierce because I didn't want you to hate me anymore.
08:01Even going.
08:02Thinking I was never going to see you again.
08:04I couldn't have you hate me.
08:06Not like that.
08:08Not like that.
08:09I was a fool.
08:17Could I let him live?
08:18I knew I'd fallen for the last time.
08:29I was dying.
08:30And I was relieved.
08:32Now I couldn't change my mind and run back to you and Leo.
08:35Rip you from your happy lives.
08:36Put you both in danger.
08:38And now you'd never know that I'd betrayed you.
08:40You could grieve.
08:41Think well of me and move on.
08:43I was at peace with it.
08:44It'd all be better off.
08:45But something in me refused to die.
08:51Once I came around, I knew my death was the only way for you to move on.
08:57The only way?
08:58Yes.
09:00You selfish coward.
09:02You're talking like you're the hero here, but you're the villain.
09:09You chose to play dead and then run away rather than talk to me like an equal.
09:14You might have talked me out of it.
09:16I wouldn't be able to resist if you'd chosen to be with me.
09:19That was my choice to make.
09:21But this is far from your biggest crime here.
09:23You let Marlon go to prison for your murder.
09:27That was never my intention.
09:29No, but it happened.
09:29And he suffered.
09:30We all did.
09:31April and Leo more than anyone.
09:34You say you wanted to protect us, but you tortured us.
09:39I didn't know.
09:40No, but you knew Pierce was still out there.
09:42And you knew he would come after me.
09:44But you just left.
09:46Without warning me.
09:47Without warning anyone.
09:48But I am...
09:48No, it's your turn to listen now.
09:53Pierce stalked me.
09:55He was in my house where my son slept.
09:59He kidnapped Vanessa and her little boy.
10:02Johnny was four years old.
10:05He tied them up.
10:06He locked them away for weeks and then he tried again.
10:11To rape me.
10:15Then that is all down to you, Graham.
10:17Because you went after him behind my back.
10:21You beat him close to death.
10:22You provoked a monster.
10:25And then you simply walked away without saying a word.
10:27You left me.
10:29Left us at his mercy.
10:30I didn't mean to.
10:31Get out!
10:32No, let me explain.
10:34You can't.
10:35Okay?
10:35I can't listen to any more excuses.
10:37I can't even look at you.
10:38I just want you to get out.
10:40Rona?
10:43Rona?
10:44Rona?
10:47I just need a bike for something.
11:14Rona?
11:19Rona?
11:20I'm not stopping.
11:21No, Rona, I need to tell you.
11:23Wait, sorry, I've got to go.
11:24No, Rona, stop.
11:25What?
11:27Have you been to the farm?
11:29Did you see Ray?
11:30No.
11:30Well, what is it?
11:31Why are you being like this?
11:32Like what?
11:32I don't know, just off.
11:34I'm not.
11:35The place was locked up.
11:37No one was there.
11:38And I'm out of options.
11:39So excuse me if I'm being off.
11:41Sorry.
11:41No, I'm just going to keep looking, okay?
11:44Okay.
11:44I'm sorry for biting your head off.
11:47Marlon.
11:49I love you.
11:52You too.
12:07I didn't do it for you.
12:09Marlon's in no fit state to know that he was left to rot in prison by a man who wasn't even dead.
12:14Well, this business with April has already tipped him over the edge.
12:17I told you, I've come to help with that.
12:19I'm not letting you anywhere near my family until I've heard everything.
12:22Ask me anything.
12:22Sit down.
12:32How did you do it exactly?
12:34Fake your death?
12:36You tricked Billy, Priya, everyone who saw you.
12:40The police?
12:41We had a man on the inside.
12:43Woman, actually.
12:45Improvise, adapt, overcome.
12:47It's a mantra drilled into us in the SAS.
12:49After I came to, I called my mate, told him the extraction plan had changed.
12:56Billy jogged along that route every morning.
12:58I knew he'd spot my abandoned four by four.
13:00Oh, my God.
13:06Billy!
13:09Billy!
13:09Billy!
13:09I've had to play dead before in Iraq, Serbia.
13:14I know how to stay still perfectly for hours, how to hold my breath.
13:18Thankfully, Billy and Priya didn't check my pulse.
13:21Someone did that to him, didn't they?
13:24It wasn't an accident.
13:26Well, that's what we need to establish.
13:27The detective, who claimed I was dead at the scene, bribed everybody who needed bribing
13:33to get me out of the mortuary, out of the country.
13:36She stashed me at a safe house till the tickets and passports were sorted.
13:40I knew the police would be all over the village, so there'd be a few days before Pierce could
13:47get to you.
13:48I thought I had time to go to the safe house, get myself sorted, and then go back and find
13:53Pierce and take him down.
13:56But at the safe house, it hit me.
14:00I'd lost you for good.
14:03I was in bed.
14:03And on the shelf, there was a bottle of whiskey.
14:17I was going to go after Pierce the next day, I swear.
14:21I thought I had time.
14:23You got drunk.
14:24Blackout drunk.
14:25When I came to, I was on the ferry.
14:27My mate was there.
14:28He had acted fast, sorting everything out as a favor.
14:34I had to go back and finish Pierce.
14:38But he told me I was too late.
14:41Pierce had already been caught and was in custody.
14:44I thought you were safe.
14:47And I carried on drinking.
14:51Lost myself in a drunken stupor for months.
14:54I'd been barred from half the bars in Mexico City when I saw Pierce's face staring out at
15:01me from a tabloid some ex-pat had left behind.
15:04I read all about what Pierce had done to Vanessa.
15:07To you.
15:09I called my mate.
15:12He told me he'd lied to me about Pierce being caught because he didn't want me to go back
15:17for him and drunkenly mess it all up.
15:20I'm sorry, Rowan.
15:21It's all my fault, all of it.
15:26I'll put you in danger and I'll never forgive myself for it.
15:30But even after you, you didn't reach out?
15:34For what?
15:34For me.
15:36If ever I needed you, it was then.
15:38Pierce was locked up.
15:40I did what was right.
15:41Right?
15:42I stayed dead.
15:44But I couldn't stay drunk.
15:47Not for good.
15:49So, I got myself to work.
15:51What sort of work?
15:52Fixed problems the police can't.
15:54But it's useless unless I'm sober.
15:58Sorry.
16:00This must all be, um, a lot.
16:05Why don't we have a cover?
16:11No sugar, strong.
16:14Just a tiny splash of milk.
16:16Hmm?
16:23Make yourself at home, why don't you?
16:25I'm sorry, should I?
16:27It's just odd.
16:27Seeing you fit back in here like you never died.
16:36I'll leave those a moment to stew.
16:39Unless your tastes have changed.
16:42They haven't.
16:43Look at the, uh, proper young man already.
17:00You know, he's growing up so fast.
17:03Still cheekier than ever.
17:04I can see.
17:08Look at the spark, isn't it?
17:11Stephen, my brother, he had the semblance in his eye at 14.
17:1614?
17:18You remember how old he is?
17:23Um, I'll finish up in here.
17:24We'll go back through.
17:25I'm, um, glad you worked things out with Marlon.
17:41And you've got a little one now, too, Ivy.
17:44You know her name?
17:46I was in the country when I went to court.
17:48I read all about you having to fight for her.
17:50You and your husband, Marlon.
17:53I won't lie.
17:53It stung a little to see you were married.
17:56Seems like you've been happy.
17:58Sometimes.
17:59A lot.
18:02Not lately.
18:03Well, that's what I'm here for.
18:06How did you know April was in trouble?
18:09Come on.
18:10Surely we'll be on secrets now.
18:12There's nothing left that can make me hate you.
18:14Hate me any last.
18:17How did you know to come?
18:18I was hired to dispose of a problem for a powerful man.
18:23But then I found out the true nature of his business, of him.
18:28Trafficking drugs, worse.
18:30Then had a change of heart.
18:33He had links to an operation around here.
18:36April's name came up as someone who was caught in it all.
18:39I tried calling, but there was no answer.
18:43When?
18:44Early today.
18:45I didn't want to show up out of nowhere.
18:47When you didn't answer, I had no choice but to come back.
18:54But did you?
18:55What?
18:56Have no choice.
18:57So why did you have to show yourself to me to save April from Ray and Celia?
19:03Do you trust me to help you now?
19:09Ray Walters and Celia Daniels, they're the ones with their hooks in April.
19:15Do you have a picture?
19:16Uh, yeah.
19:18Tell me what you know.
19:18That's Ray.
19:24He's the one who convinced April, still a child, to deal drugs.
19:31Tricked her.
19:32Trapped her.
19:33Sent her out to sleep with grown men.
19:36And when she fought back desperate, she, uh...
19:39She killed a man.
19:42From then on, Ray and his mum, Celia, they owned her.
19:47There was no escape.
19:50Now she's disappeared.
19:51What?
19:52Since when?
19:53Well, it's been a few days now.
19:54Ray and Celia must have her, but I thought that's why you were here.
19:57To help get her out of trouble.
19:59I didn't know she was missing.
20:01Rana, I need to move fast.
20:03I need to reach out to my contacts, see if we can get her home safe.
20:06If!
20:07I will get her home safe.
20:08Graham.
20:09Ray is a true predator.
20:14He preyed upon April.
20:15He's malignant, beyond saving.
20:18And he's never gonna stop.
20:20Not until someone makes him.
20:22On that we're agreed.
20:24I won't make the mistake of sparing Ray like I spared Pierce.
20:32You need me.
20:34You call me on this number.
20:37I promise.
20:39I will, dear April, my home.
20:56Ross?
20:58Ross?
21:01Ross, I lock it.
21:03You'll stay in here.
21:04No!
21:04I'll be with Ray, not you.
21:06What?
21:06No, no, no!
21:06Just stay here until you hear from me.
21:09Look.
21:09No!
21:10Look!
21:11She's my daughter!
21:12I'll be with Ray, not you.
21:13I'll be with Ray.
21:14I'll be with Ray.
21:14I'll be with Ray.
21:15I'll be with Ray.
21:15I'll be with Ray.
21:16I'll be with Ray.
21:16I'll be with Ray.
21:16I'll be with Ray.
21:17I'll be with Ray.
21:18I'll be with Ray.
21:18I'll be with Ray.
21:18I'll be with Ray.
21:19I'll be with Ray.
21:19I'll be with Ray.
21:20I'll be with Ray.
21:20I'll be with Ray.
21:21I'll be with Ray.
21:21I'll be with Ray.
21:21I'll be with Ray.
21:22I'll be with Ray.
21:22I'll be with Ray.
21:23I'll be with Ray.
21:23I'll be with Ray.
21:23I'll be with Ray.
21:24I'll be with Ray.
