01:29White.
01:32Purity.
01:35Innocence.
01:36Brightness.
01:39And death.
01:44During Chinese imperial rule, a length of white silk was occasionally offered to those
01:50who had committed a serious offense, as a gift, to allow them the possibility of taking their
01:56own life by hanging rather than being executed, preserving the physical integrity
02:02of the body in accordance with Confucian principles of filial piety.
02:34The Tang Dynasty, 10th century.
02:37Remained as a standard text on forensic pathology until the 1920s.
02:41You still do all that imperial China white silk stuff today?
02:44The new culture movement of 1915 thought that respect for your elders was an obstruction
02:50to progress.
02:51Mao's socialism in the 50s shifted responsibility from the family to the state.
02:57Nickopedia strikes again.
02:59So, not many white silk gifts then, these days?
03:03Not so much, no.
03:04No, I didn't think so.
03:06Detective Inspector Fred Casey.
03:08Can I help you?
03:09I think we're here to help you, Fred.
03:11Who are you?
03:12Oh, sorry.
03:13Dr. Nicky Alexander.
03:14Jack Hodgson.
03:15Am I supposed to know who you are and why you're here?
03:18Bowman Centre.
03:19Should that mean something to me?
03:20Pathology, forensics.
03:24Birmingham.
03:26Hodgson.
03:26No relation to Roy?
03:28None.
03:28I've read about you.
03:29Oh.
03:31Well, I didn't call you, so there must be some mix-up.
03:33We've got our own people in Oxfordshire.
03:35So, could you stand behind the police tape, please?
03:38It is a crime scene.
03:39Excuse me.
03:40My requested door.
03:43T.G.F.
03:46Who's your friend?
03:48Well, it's hard to know.
03:50Go!
03:53Yeah.
03:56Can I put your skirt?
03:58Yeah.
03:59Okay.
03:59I see.
04:02All right.
04:04Bring it down.
04:04I got it.
04:05Go.
04:17Thanks.
04:21Bye.
04:28Bye.
04:49Satsang with Mooji
04:59My Home Office felt it would be better if we moved her body to the Bowman.
05:03I'm the SAO. This is my crime scene. I don't know anything about this and I don't know who you
05:07think you are.
05:08Well, I've already told you. I'm Alex Burns. I'm the Senior Investigator with the Security Services. I've got a pretty
05:12clear idea who I am.
05:14Oh, you think you're a comedian?
05:15No, I don't think I've ever thought that.
05:16Let me walk you through what you need to do before you turn up here and act like you're in
05:19charge.
05:20You need to ring the coroner, then the coroner needs to agree, then the coroner needs to speak to my
05:24superintendent, then my superintendent needs to call me.
05:27All right?
05:30How old do you think she is? Twenties?
05:32I'd say so.
05:35I'll lift.
05:53Preserve the knot.
05:54Please.
05:56Please.
05:56Please.
05:57I'll lift.
06:13I'll lift.
06:13Let's go.
06:46Young woman, beautiful place, makes no sense.
06:54Lipostatic staining, but no legature marks or bruising.
07:00Brasian and laceration to the zygomatic bone.
07:06No petechiae in the facial skin.
07:11Eyelids.
07:14All buccal mucosa.
07:22Nicky, what do you reckon?
07:25Torn from the force of her body fallen?
07:28Perhaps.
07:30Not silk?
07:31No.
07:32Don't think silk would have torn from the dead weight like this.
07:35No.
07:37I'll look for the missing piece.
07:39It's what you do.
07:40Or fabric.
07:41I got that.
07:43No legature marks, no bruising.
07:48So, she fell?
07:52Hit her head on something?
07:53Knocked herself out?
07:54Drawings?
07:55Possible.
07:58How long was she in the water?
08:01What to say?
08:02There's no sign of maceration.
08:06Some skin wrinkling on the finger pads.
08:09Did you take the water temperature?
08:11Not yet.
08:13I'll get a sample for the eye pump testing.
08:15Okay.
08:16Let's see what the post-mortem tells us.
08:23Could you bring the body bag, please?
08:25Yeah.
08:25We're taking her to the John Radcliffe.
08:43Foreigner's office, please.
08:44Thanks.
08:46Do we know the name of the deceased?
08:47No.
08:50It's Nicky Alexander from the Bowman Center.
08:53Is Daniel available?
08:55Hi, Daniel.
08:56It's Nicky.
08:57I'm well, thanks for asking.
08:59You?
09:01Well, you can't let them get you down.
09:04Okay.
09:04I'm in Oxford, recovering an unknown female from the Charwell.
09:08Well, there seems to be some dispute.
09:14Okay.
09:15Thanks.
09:18Coroner's instructed that their body be moved to the Bowman Center for the post-mortem.
09:21Well, nobody told me that.
09:28Do I show Casey?
09:31Yes, sir?
09:36Understood, sir.
09:37Yes, sir.
09:38Thank you, sir.
09:43I'll see you in Birmingham.
09:46We believe her name was May Lee.
09:5023, from Hong Kong.
09:53How do you know?
09:57We'll speak at the Bowman.
10:11We'll speak at the Bowman Center for the post-mortem.

11:36I don't know.
11:45I don't know.
11:52I don't know.

11:56I don't know.
11:59I don't know.
12:30I don't know.
12:33I don't know.
12:37I don't know.
12:48I don't know.

13:03I don't know.
13:18I don't know.
13:30I don't know.
13:32I don't know.

14:06I don't know.
14:31I don't know.
14:35I don't know.
14:36I don't know.
14:37I don't know.
14:46I don't know.
14:53I don't know.
14:55I don't know.
15:08I don't know.
15:24I don't know.
15:31I don't know.
15:33I don't know.
15:56Are you the philosopher queen?
15:58No.
15:59Fucking miracle.
16:07Why here?
16:09Why us?
16:10The deceased woman's family live in Birmingham.
16:13It's true.
16:15Why here?
16:17Why us?
16:20The home office trusts you.
16:23Why you?
16:27To be honest, we rather stumbled across this one.
16:31We just wanted to make sure that it's not...
16:34What?
16:35Well, that it all makes sense.
16:39Does the death of a young person ever fully make sense?
16:45Dr. Alexander is ready for me.
16:49Why would a young woman with her whole life ahead of her
16:51suddenly take her own life?
16:56Shame.
17:01A quality which alerts us to the gap between who we are today
17:06and the best version of ourselves.
17:10The deceased is a young woman in her twenties of East Asian extraction.
17:17It's not a disparagement of the essence of our being, but a reminder of who we could be.
17:24It's a faint line, but no bruising.
17:28Inspiring.
17:30Helping us to rise.
17:31The laceration to the zygomatic bone.
17:35Not driving us to despair.
17:37The laryngohyoid complex is intact.
17:41No sign of a fracture.
17:44Shame is an overlooked quality in a society which rewards celebrity over accomplishments,
17:52and mistakes the realization of one's imperfections for a mental health affliction.
17:58Should we turn her over?
18:00Yes, of course.
18:04I'm just going to turn you over, May.
18:14Cupping?
18:16Chinese medicine?
18:18Yeah.
18:19A society in which we medicalize disappointment,
18:22and normalize complacency.
18:27Acupuncture needle marks?
18:32Not usually so conspicuous.
18:35No.
18:36There seems to be some sort of localized reaction to these.
18:40Hmm. Hmm.
18:42Whose preoccupation with eye cannot see us.
18:50We tolerate a technological world of falsehood, deception, and aggression.
18:57A celebration of mendacity.
19:01A world without shame.
19:08There's no excess fluid in the pleural cavities.
19:12The lungs are not hyperinflated, crepitant, or even doughy.
19:16There's no froth in the primary bronchi.
19:20There's no evidence that she drowned.
19:23But if we are led by virtue, we will develop a sense of shame which, in turn, will guide us
19:34to be good.
19:36She was dead before she entered the water.
19:40Shame only shows us how far we are from perfection.
19:45It should never, ever, kill us.
19:52Her death is concerning.
19:56Wrongdoing?
19:57Concerning.
19:58I'm not going to rule out third party involvement at this stage.
20:02When will you pin it down?
20:03Well, we don't know the mechanism of death.
20:05I'm waiting on toxicology.
20:08Why did you bring her here?
20:10We've done this.
20:12Trust.
20:14Oh, we're sticking to that old chestnut, aren't we?
20:16You knew her name before her body was recovered from the water.
20:20You knew her age, where she was from.
20:22And you knew the death was suspicious before we had even done the post-mortem.
20:26Were you expecting it?
20:28No.
20:29Were you responsible for it?
20:31Absolutely not.
20:34If you were following her, you didn't do a particularly good job.
20:37We weren't following her.
20:39No.
20:40Who were you following?
20:44We have an interest in British cyber research which we monitor to protect against state-sponsored theft.
20:51And it was while monitoring...
20:52Phone tapping?
20:53While monitoring, we discovered that May Lee was missing.
20:57She matched the name of someone known to us, and the body found matched her description.
21:03Why was this woman known to you?
21:07Oh, what happened to trust, Alex?
21:11There was a bounty on the young woman's head.
21:15Allegedly.
21:16Do you know who put it there?
21:17Why?
21:20Why did the police arrest them?
21:22It's not a person.
21:24It's a country.
21:25Or more precisely, a special administrative region.
21:30Oh, God.
21:31Yeah.
21:32That does not leave this office.
21:40The Hong Kong government put a bounty on her head.
21:44Allegedly.
21:45For her capture.
21:46Not her murder.
21:47Why?
21:49Pro-democracy campaigner.
21:51What happened to one country, two systems?
21:54National security law.
21:58This is a Chinese issue.
22:00No, no, no.
22:01She's British.
22:02BNO passport.
22:05The British national overseas.
22:06I know what that means.
22:08It would be very handy if you ended up proving that this...
22:12This?
22:13This?
22:14The death of a young woman?
22:17Had nothing to do with that.
22:19What?
22:21Democracy.
22:28Hello.
22:29Harriet Raven.
22:31Yes.
22:32Yes, she's here with me.
22:39Dr Alexander.
22:41Detective Inspector.
22:42I think we know who the deceased woman is.
22:45And I brought him to identify the body.
22:47Why would she do this?
22:48It can't be.
22:49It's just not rational.
22:52Can we...
22:53It makes absolutely no sense.
22:55Are you certain it's her?
23:00I need certainty.
23:04Certainty brings closure.
23:10Just a minute.
23:17His name's Pike George.
23:19He reported his fiancee missing and...
23:21She matches the description of the dead Chinese one that we fished out of the jar well.
23:28She's British.
23:29She's British.
23:30She's British.
23:40could be.
23:46The hair.
23:47I need to cure it.
23:49The hair.
23:49The hair.
23:49Wow!
23:50The hair.
23:50The hair.
23:53The hair.
23:58It's her.
24:02It's Maylene.
24:36It's Maylene.
24:54Hello.
24:54Pike?
24:57I'm Jack.
24:58I...
25:00Look, here.
25:01I just wanted to...
25:05Well...
25:08It's a lonely thing.
25:12Thanks.
25:14She was your fiancée?
25:17That's rough.
25:20Yeah.
25:22I'm sorry.
25:24You knew her a long time?
25:27Ten days.
25:31When you know you know?
25:33Yeah.
25:34Lost my virginity to her.
25:36Right, okay.
25:39Now she's dead.
25:40She's taking my virginity with her to the grave.
25:46Do people from Hong Kong have graves?
25:50What does she want?
25:53Who do I ask?
25:56Her parents?
25:59Her...
26:00Her dad died?
26:03I don't know her mum.
26:06Never met her.
26:08I was going to, but...
26:11Never did.
26:13I've never talked to her about death.
26:17I guess it was because she made me feel so alive.
26:26I'm really grateful to you for coming to talk to me.
26:31No one ever comes to talk to me.
26:34No one ever comes to talk to me.
26:35And you did.
26:44Ten days.
26:47You'd only known her ten days.
26:50They were getting married.
26:52Doesn't that seem odd?
26:54I don't know.
26:56There are some guys I'm ready to marry after one night.
27:00Too much information.
27:02You never met her, Mum.
27:03Well, we need to meet her.
27:05And collect her DNA.
27:21Fred?
27:23Hi.
27:23I need a favour.
27:28Said he wanted someone with, you know,
27:30high emotional intelligence to speak to the deceased mother.
27:33Wouldn't say no, really, could I?
27:37How's the weather down there, then?
27:39Yeah, that's funny, Fred. You're a funny guy.
27:41I bet you've built that before.
27:43Not me personally, but I'm sure someone has, you know,
27:4530, 40 years ago.
27:47Eggshells.
27:47Sorry?
27:48Down here.
27:50Well, a situation like this, you know,
27:52us working together,
27:53pretending there's nothing unusual about you.
27:55It can be...
27:56awkward.
27:57So you crack a bad joke, break those eggshells.
28:00So that's what we're doing, isn't it?
28:01Killing poultry.
28:03See, he's doing exactly what I hoped he would do.
28:05Now we don't have to tiptoe around so much.
28:07I feel so much better.
28:08Good.
28:11This is the place.
28:17Right we look at everybody.
28:19Nice.
28:19Right we look July, birthday.
28:21Right we're sitting here.
28:26Nice.
28:34Can we go along?
28:34Happy birthday.
28:35Happy birthday.
28:35Happy birthday, Newry.
28:35Happy birthday, new day, new day.
28:35Go to free.
28:35Happy birthday.
28:37I can't walk everybody.
28:42Bye.
28:47Well you aren't worth it.
28:47Hmm.
28:50What is it?
28:51Nothing.
28:54A lot of thinking about nothing.
28:56There's nothing in the toxicology report.
28:59I swabbed the 22 pinpricks on her back.
29:02Pinpricks?
29:02I suspect made by acupuncture needles.
29:05There's a small red mark next to each one.
29:08Localised reaction.
29:10Each one of the sites has returned a high level of the amino acid tryptophan.
29:28Hi, it's Dr. Alexander.
29:30I'd like to run analytical tests outside of the normal tox profile on Mei Li.
29:36Yes, you just returned results on her.
29:38This time look at serotonin and all analogues and derivatives of it.
29:44Okay. Thanks.
29:48So what does it mean?
29:49I don't know.
29:51Serotonin is synthesised from tryptophan, but...
29:55why would it return at a high level?
30:04Hello.
30:04Hello, Detective Inspector Brad Casey.
30:08Looking for a Jackie Hu Wei Li.
30:13Yeah.
30:15I am Jackie.
30:18How can I help you?
30:22Erm...
30:23Maybe we could speak somewhere private?
30:41Jackie.
30:44This is difficult news to tell you.
30:48Erm...
30:48Your daughter Mei's dead.
31:02Okay.
31:02I see you.
31:04Okay.
31:06We don't know what happened to her yet.
31:09We're still investigating.
31:16Okay.
31:19When did you last see me?
31:24I don't know exactly.
31:27Not longer.
31:28Okay.
31:30Um...
31:33I understand this is bad news, but...
31:36Erm...
31:37We'd be grateful if you'd volunteer a sample of your DNA
31:40to help with the investigation.
31:48I...
31:49I will do it.
31:53We won't be able to return her body to you...
31:55until we complete the investigation.
32:00Okay.
32:10If you could open your mouth, please.
32:12Please.
32:19Okay.
32:20All set.
32:23That's my number.
32:24If you need it.
32:28We'll be in touch.
32:39I have a daughter.
32:41I'm not Chinese, so maybe I don't know anything, but...
32:44If I had just been told my daughter was dead,
32:47I wouldn't have reacted like that.
33:19Well, I'm making progress.
33:22And progress in anything is very satisfactory, isn't it?
33:26Don't you think?
33:27You look troubled.
33:29I'm not troubled.
33:30Puzzled.
33:31The swabs from Maylee's back.
33:33What?
33:34From the acupuncture needle marks?
33:36Well, as yet unconfirmed that they were made by acupuncture needles, but yes.
33:40They showed a high level of the amino acid tryptophan.
33:44Did you look for serotonin?
33:45Yes.
33:46And analogues and derivatives.
33:47The lab's just come back with a lethal amount of dimethyl serotonin.
33:53Also known as 5-hydroxy-N.
33:56N-dimethyltryptamine.
33:58Alkaloid tryptamine.
33:59Yes.
34:00Also known as bufotenin, a serotonergic psychedelic and potent hallucinogenic.
34:06Bufotenin is an exotic, isn't it?
34:07Yes.
34:08A potent and non-selective serotonin receptor agonist.
34:11Made from plants or mushrooms.
34:13And toad venom.
34:20Used in Chinese medicine.
34:21What is it used in Chinese medicine?
34:23Apparently to treat cancer.
34:25Does she have cancer?
34:26Not that we could see.
34:27So it's not medicinal?
34:28Because of its structural similarities with dimethyltryptamine and serotonin,
34:32it's considered a psychedelic.
34:34She uses it to get high.
34:36And overdoses?
34:37Does she mean to overdose?
34:39Hard to know intention.
34:40But irrespective of her intentions,
34:43the needle marks were on her back,
34:44so she couldn't have put them there herself.
34:47Acupuncture is an unusual method of delivery.
34:50We found nothing in the literature.
34:51And as she was lying face down,
34:53she probably didn't know what was happening.
34:55The mechanism of death in an overdose of bufotenin
34:57is asphyxiation leading to cardiac arrest.
35:00Constricts the airways.
35:02Hanging or drowning might be a misdirect.
35:04You are confusing the investigation.
35:06I don't believe May Lee took her own life.
35:08I think we need to proceed as though it's likely to be a homicide.
35:14Alex.
35:18Where do you find toad venom?
35:20Well, we know that she had cupping treatment.
35:23And she had acupuncture.
35:26Kit, how many practitioners of Chinese medicine are there in Oxford?
35:29Honey.
35:30Pike might know who to speak to.
35:32Are you?
35:33Yeah.
35:42Hello, DIKC.
35:43Hi, Fred.
35:45Oh, hello, Alex.
35:46How's it hanging?
35:48How do you still have a job?
35:50Maybe because I do people like you favours.
36:11Hello.
36:12People call you the hot dog.
36:14None that are still alive.
36:18I'm up to 62 traditional Chinese medicine practitioners.
36:23Who knew they were so popular?
36:25Yeah, who knew?
36:27What is it?
36:29DNA result from the knot.
36:30Knot.
36:32Great quality.
36:33But it's a mixed sample hers and an unknown DNA second female.
36:39Someone else tied the knot.
36:43Let's check against the profiles we have and do a spec search.
36:47See if it's on the database.
36:49Yep, will do.
36:50Will you find any more on Handel's...?
36:54Handel's S. Horishon.
36:56Yeah.
37:02Uh...
37:03Police here to see a Pike George Handel S. Horishon.
37:07Can I see your identification, please?
37:16The woman is with you?
37:18Yes.
37:19The woman is with me.
37:21Not a sentence I say very often.
37:23Unsurprisingly.
37:24She will need to provide identification.
37:28Understood.
37:31After you.
37:35Hendel says Sorosont is trying to design a quantum chip
37:38that is a trillion times faster than today's supercomputer.
37:42Only a trillion?
37:56I.T.
38:11Is this regarding me, Lee?
38:14Police business.
38:16Of course.
38:18Is Pike expecting you?
38:19I tried to call here several times, but no one answered.
38:22I don't take messages.
38:23Why is that?
38:24Security.
38:27Can I have her mobile phones, please?
38:32Pop them to a locker.
38:38I'll take you to Pike.
38:39I'll take you to Pike.
38:46I'll take you to Pike.
38:54Thanks, Ma.
38:57I'll take you to the Santa.
39:03Apparently, they're trying to make a qubit chip
39:06for a quantum computer out of water.
39:09Water?
39:10Water and pulses of light.
39:12They make the water salty by dissolving iodide ions into it.
39:18The laser's fired into the water, bumping electrons out of the salt.
39:22The laser is so fast, the water's able to switch states in picoseconds.
39:28That's a trillionth of a second.
39:33What happens in there?
39:38They do coding, developing artificial intelligence.
39:44The company's called Connata.
39:48I think it's a kind of a training place.
39:53Everyone just calls it the room.
40:01It's not part of Henderson's horoscope.
40:05They are through here, in the secure research area of the building.
40:10A faster, more efficient chip is key to the future.
40:14It would save massive amounts of energy compared to today's silicone chips.
40:18The energy required to drive the computers to run an AI platform, you could power a whole city.
40:30Hello.
40:31Hello.
40:35I'm Bendik Voss, co-founder.
40:38Handles' horoscope.
40:41Can I help?
40:42Police?
40:44Or bike?
40:57A water-based qubit chip in a quantum computer would use a tiny fraction of that and operate up to
41:04a hundred million times faster for AI.
41:07One hundred million?
41:08Mm-hmm.
41:10Depending on the algorithm.
41:13There's a quote from Pike in the article.
41:15It will be faster than God can blink.
41:19That's world changing.
41:21We're building it here.
41:22We're creating it.
41:25We're a nation of creators, inventors, thinkers.
41:29Pike does this?
41:31Mm-hmm.
41:32He's the founder.
41:34Along with a chap called Bendik Voss.
41:39Pike's chief technology officer.
41:42He's the brains behind it.
42:00I...
42:01Hey.
42:05Woo-Li…ουςICS…
42:08Or organized energy.
42:11That's what we are.
42:13Energy organized in the form we're in.
42:16The organism we inhabit.
42:19Bye, Fred.
42:21Bye.
42:24We live in a zero-energy universe.
42:28You know what that means, Fred?
42:30Not a fucking clue.
42:33The energy is the same today as it was at the beginning of time.
42:37That's right, yeah.
42:38When an organism dies, the energy still exists.
42:44I try and feel her energy.
42:46I know it sounds crazy.
42:47It's not crazy.
42:48If you think of a person's being as energy,
42:51it accounts for spirits, ghosts, God.
42:57Thanks, Rodrigo.
42:59All sorts of human experiences.
43:02The moment of energy is the point of singularity, isn't it?
43:06Where physics and metaphysics meet.
43:11Why are you here?
43:13We're having a bit of trouble finding Maylee's address in Oxford.
43:15You wouldn't have it, would you?
43:16Of course.
43:18She lived in Jericho.
43:19I'll get it.
43:22Good morning, Pike.
43:23I miss you.
43:26Big kiss.
43:30Thanks, Maylee.
43:32The guys in the room are building me a virtual interactive waifu.
43:37Good morning, Pike. I miss you.
43:38Big kiss.
43:38Through the dark hours.
43:40It's eternal life.
43:42Just different.
43:45Don't have it.
43:46I know it by sight.
43:48I can take you there.
43:50Great, yeah.
43:50You wouldn't have a laptop or a phone, would you?
43:52No, sorry.
43:53We'd be grateful if you'd volunteer a DNA sample
43:56to help us with our investigation.
43:58Of course.
44:23Did Maylee ever talk to you about Chinese medicine?
44:26Oh, God, yes.
44:27She was always banging on about it.
44:30Some woman she said I had to go see.
44:32It would change my life.
44:34Okay.
44:38Do you remember her name?
44:41Don't think she ever mentioned it.
44:43Why?
44:45A few unanswered questions.
44:47A few?
44:49Only a few.
44:52I have thousands.
44:55Millions.
44:58This is a temple
45:01to unanswered questions.
45:09Rodrigo?
45:12Rodrigo needs to walk us out.
45:15Ben Dick is obsessed with security.
45:35I'm getting nowhere on the phone.
45:38I ask for Toad Venom or Bufo.
45:40Apparently, it's called Bufo among a particular groovy set of folk who use it.
45:45Never was really part of that crowd.
45:47No?
45:48No.
45:48Never really wanted to be.
45:50No.
45:52So I ask.
45:53They say no and hang up.
45:54Sometimes they just hang up.
45:56Usually, they just hang up.
46:02Songyi?
46:02It literally means Chinese medicine.
46:05An in-person consultation?
46:07It's worth a try.
46:20How did you meet Mei Li?
46:22She worked for one of the companies in the building.
46:24Just along here.
46:26This one.
46:26The room.
46:27Mei work here?
46:28Yes.
46:31How long has it worked for them?
46:33I don't know exactly.
46:34They moved in a couple of months after we did.
46:38Who owns it?
46:39Huh?
46:40Do you know who owns it?
46:41Oh.
46:42Some evil genius with no strong attachment to reality.
46:46I make the violin.
46:47They play it so well that even the devil will dance.
46:51The thing that they can do with AI.
46:56I used to see her through this glass every morning when I'd come in.
47:01And every night when I'd leave.
47:04She would look at me.
47:06I would look at her.
47:11First sight.
47:17You believe in love at first sight, Fred?
47:20Why do I always get the hard questions?
47:31Think they can fix me?
47:33Are you broken?
47:34Yeah, we're all broken.
47:36Oh, who's the philosopher queen now?
47:41After you, fucking miracle.
47:44Such a gentleman.
47:55I feel healthier already.
47:59Hi.
48:00Um, would you happen to have Hua Chen Su that I could buy?
48:07So sorry.
48:08My pronunciation is terrible.
48:10I know.
48:11Uh, Hua Chen Su?
48:14Am I saying it right?
48:15Are you asking me?
48:17Chen Su?
48:18Toad Venom?
48:21Hmm?
48:22All right.
48:24This is going well.
48:25You know what?
48:29You can't do it.
48:32Don't say it.
48:33You're not serious.
48:39How can I help?
48:40We'd like to buy Chen Su.
48:42Mm-hmm.
48:44beautiful toxin yes you know that is a class a drug right for cancer treatment it is used for
48:54that yes the case you are going to sell it to they want it for cancer treatment sure i believe
49:03that
49:05that's a go-to present drug six years you can't buy it from a legitimate traditional chinese
49:12medicine practitioner in this country you can't import it sorry can't help no yeah can't help
49:22okay okay cool
49:38this is it
49:45no key sorry no

50:31oh
50:45Oi! Ei! Stop here! Ei! Stop it!
50:53Are you okay? Unbelievable!
50:56Would you like me to call the police?
50:58I know I'm okay. Are you hurt?
51:02I'm okay. Come sit down.
51:05What's your name?
51:07Helen. I'm Nicky.
51:10Did he hurt you?
51:14He took my bag.
51:15You need to go to the police. They're not going to do anything.
51:19If not for you, then to protect the next person.
51:23I will.
51:24Would you like me to give you a lift to the police station?
51:27No, it's okay. I've got my bike.
51:33Would you mind if I get your number, just in case I need a witness?
51:36Of course.
51:37He's got my phone! Bustard!
51:39I'm so sorry.
51:42Here.
51:47Old school business card. Very classy.
51:50You're a doctor?
51:51Yes.
51:52Nice to meet you, Dr. Alexander.
51:54Nicky.
51:55Nicky.
51:55I am Dr. Helen Garnett, the academic kind, not the life-saving kind.
52:00Thank you. You've been really kind.
52:03I really appreciate it.
52:25Hey.
52:27Hey.
52:29How are you holding up?
52:40I've been meaning to tell you, but because of Mei-Li, I, uh...
52:49We've had an offer to buy Hendlitz's Horizont.
52:52Another one?
52:54Not Musk or Altman. Please tell me, not them.
52:58No, not them.
52:59But it is an AI company.
53:01Did you tell them to piss off?
53:07We're close.
53:09You know we're close, right?
53:12We're running out of money, Mike.
53:15We're running out of time.
53:17Look, we're small.
53:19We were always going to get bought by someone else.
53:21And right now, we've got something to sell.
53:23Don't do it, Bendik.
53:25Please, don't do it.
53:27What is the point of all of this work if you just sell it to the highest bidder?
53:31We can create the future.
53:34We can control how it's used and who uses it.
53:37We can stop it being used for weapons.
53:39Stop it from destroying jobs.
53:40Stop it from destroying each other.
53:43No, we can't, Pike.
53:45We can.
53:47Pike.
53:50Human beings aren't built like that.
53:53We can.
53:56We can.
53:58Who was it?
54:01Who made the offer that's turned your fucking head?
54:04Who was it?
54:17Class A.
54:18Won't be coming from a name.
54:19Legit Chinese medicine clinic.
54:21You learn anything?
54:23Wu Li.
54:24A new word?
54:26The idea that we are organized energy.
54:29Nice idea.
54:33May Li worked for a company in the same building called Comniter.
54:36I'll get Kit to look into them.
54:39Do you believe in love at first sight?
54:41Of course.
54:42Ask me a hard one.
54:44I must have screwed up the DNA sample.
54:46Along with this romantic moment.
54:48Oh, it's so inappropriate in the workplace.
54:50Which sample?
54:51May Li's mum.
54:53Either I screwed up the DNA test or May Li was adopted.
54:57Let me see.
55:01Oh, my God.
55:36The result shows that May Lee's mother wasn't a biological parent of the deceased.
55:43Did that DI, Fred Casey, go anywhere near the samples after you took it?
55:48He could have buggered them up.
55:50No. No, of course not.
55:52Perhaps she adopted her.
55:54Were you going to ask?
55:55It won't be useful to find out as much as we can about the mother.
55:57We can test her again, but I don't think the result will change.
56:01Both the positive and negative controls in the extraction process confirm validity.
56:06And the amplification blanks show no contamination?
56:10It wasn't you, Kit.
56:11The test wasn't spoiled or contaminated.
56:14Have either of you met her?
56:15They would give us an excuse.
56:18Meet her.
56:26Oh, my God.
56:32Oh, my God.
56:35Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
57:04Jackie, this is my boss, Jack Hodgson, and Dr. Nicky Alexander, who I work with.
57:10I'm so sorry to trouble you, but, um...
57:15Did you, by any chance, adopt me?
57:25No, I did not.
57:28We might need to do the samples again.
57:30Why? Why do you need this? We have done nothing wrong.
57:34Stop!
57:37I am May Lee.
