00:30Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:23Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:30White, purity, innocence, brightness, and 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 of the body
02:03in accordance with Confucian principles of filial piety.
02:12The Tang Dynasty, 10th century.
02:16But the Chinese have practiced forensic science to investigate crime since the Western Panhand
02:21dynasty in the first century.
02:23Do you know what their most famous forensic book is?
02:26Yes, I do know this.
02:27It's the washing line and the...
02:30The washing away of wrongs.
02:31So?
02:32It was translated into Latin and then came to Britain during the conquest.
02:36It remained 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 to progress.
02:51Mao's socialism in the 50s shifted responsibility from the family to the state.
02:57Wikipedia strikes again.
02:59So, not many white silk gifts then these days?
03:03Not too 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?
03:13Sorry, Dr. 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.
03:29Well, I didn't call you, so there must be some mix-up.
03:33We've got our own people in Oxfordshire, so...
03:36Could you stand behind the police tape, please?
03:38It is a crime scene.
03:39Excuse me.
03:40Well, I requested, though.
03:43Did you?
03:46Who's your friend?
03:48Well, it's hard to know.
03:50Go!
03:51Okay.
03:54Yeah.
03:57What's your step?
03:57Yeah.
03:59Okay.
04:00I'll see you.
04:01Okay.
04:02All right.
04:04Bring it down.
04:04I'll go there.
04:05Go.
04:10Go.
04:20Go.
04:21Go.
04:22Go.
04:23Go.
04:23Go.
04:27Go.
04:28Go.
04:28Go.
04:28Go.
04:28Go.
04:28Go.
04:32Go.
04:35Go.
05:02I'm the SAO. This is my crime scene.
05:05I don't know anything about this, and I don't know who you think you are.
05:08I've already told you, I'm Alex Burns, I'm the Senior Investigator with the Security Services.
05:12I've got a pretty clear 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.
05:19You need to ring the coroner, then the coroner needs to agree,
05:23then the coroner needs to speak to my superintendent, then my superintendent needs to call me.
05:27All right?
05:30I already think she's 12.
05:32I'd say so.
05:33I'd say so.
05:53Preserve the knock.
05:54Please.
06:02Okay.
06:46Young woman. Beautiful place. Makes no sense.
06:54Lipostatic staining, but no legature marks or bruising.
07:00Grosin and laceration to the zygomatic bone.
07:06No petechiae in the facial skin.
07:10Eyelids.
07:14All buccal mucosa.
07:22Nicky, what do you reckon?
07:25Torn from the force of her body fallen?
07:28Perhaps.
07:29Not 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.
07:40A fabric.
07:41I got that.
07:43No legature marks, no bruising.
07:49So, she fell?
07:51Hit 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 diapong 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.
08:43Coroner's office, please.
08:44Thanks.
08:45Do 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.
09:04I'm in Oxford, recovering an unknown female from the Charwell.
09:08There seems to be some dispute.
09:14Okay.
09:15Thanks.
09:17Coroner'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?
09:56We'll speak at the Bowman.
10:11I don't know.
10:41I don't know.
11:11I don't know.
11:28I don't know.
11:36I don't know.
11:43I don't know.
11:52I don't know.
11:56I don't know.
11:56I don't know.
12:25I don't know.
12:56I don't know.
13:01I don't know.
13:18So, uh, how long do you think she's been missing?
13:22Two days.
13:23Two days.
13:24Okay.
13:25Better get some details then.
13:29Name?
13:30Pike George.
13:31Oh, yes.
13:33Age?
13:3431.
13:36Occupation?
13:37CTO.
13:38Research Scientist.
13:39Physics for Händelser's Horizont.
13:44Hmm.
13:46CTO.
13:48Missing fiance's name?
13:50May Lee.
13:51May, like the month.
13:53L-E-L-E-E?
13:55No, no, um...
13:58May Lee.
13:59M-E-I-L-I.
14:05Is she Asian?
14:07Chinese.
14:08From Hong Kong.
14:17Clothing fresh from the drying chamber.
14:32We want to untie the knot and see if we can extract the DNA from the fabric inside.
14:37Mm-hmm.
14:37Got it.
14:54You're young.
14:55Yes.
14:56But less and less every day.
14:59Hour of dark thoughts.
15:00What counts as dark?
15:04Self-destruction.
15:06Why would I have those?
15:07I'm a goddamn miracle.
15:10Yes, you are.
15:12So are you.
15:14So is she.
15:20You know when a dark cloud descends and blocks out the sun?
15:25The sun is still there.
15:27We just can't see it.
15:29We can forget that.
15:31The sun is always there.
15:33We just have to wait for it to come back.
15:37We're still there even when it's dark.
15:41You can't forget that.
15:45So, yeah.
15:47There is a little darkness, but without the darkness you can't appreciate the light.
15:55Shall I call 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.
16:16Why here?
16:17Why us?
16:19The 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, 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 a whole life ahead of her suddenly take her own life?
16:56Shame.
17:01A quality which alerts us to the gap between who we are today and 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.
17:32Laceration to the zygomatic bone.
17:35Not driving us to despair.
17:37The laryngohioid complex is intact.
17:41No sign of a fracture.
17:44Shame is an overlooked quality in a society which rewards celebrity over accomplishments
17:51and mistakes the realization of one's imperfections for a mental health affliction.
17:57Should we turn her over?
18:00Yes, of course.
18:04We're just going to turn you over, May.
18:15Cupping?
18:16Chinese medicine.
18:18Yeah.
18:19A society in which we medicalize disappointment and normalize complacency.
18:27Acupuncture needle marks?
18:32Not usually so conspicuous.
18:34No, but there seems to be some sort of localised reaction to these.
18:41Whose preoccupation with I cannot see us.
18:51We tolerate a technological world of falsehood, deception and aggression.
18:57A celebration of mendacity.
19:00A 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.
19:35She 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.
19:53Her 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. Trust.
20:13Oh, 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.
20:28Were 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, no.
20:40Who were you following?
20:44We have an interest in British cyber research,
20:47which we monitor to protect against state-sponsored theft.
20:50And 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,
20:59and the body found matched her description.
21:02Why was this woman known to you?
21:07Oh, what happened to Trust, Alex?
21:10There was a bounty on the young woman's head.
21:14Allegedly.
21:16Do you know who put it there?
21:20Well, 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.
21:32Yeah.
21:32That does not leave this office.
21:40The Hong Kong government put a bounty on her head.
21:44Allegedly.
21:45For her capture, not 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.
22:01No, no, no.
22:01She's British.
22:02B&O passport.
22:04The British national overseas.
22:06I know what that means.
22:08It would be very handy if you ended up proving that...
22:11This...
22:12This?
22:13This?
22:14The death of a young woman?
22:17Had nothing to do with that.
22:20What?
22:21Democracy?
22:28Hello.
22:29Harriet Reagan.
22:31Yes.
22:32Yes.
22:33She'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.
22:46Why 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.
23:12Just a minute.
23:17His name's Pike George.
23:19He reported his fiancée missing and...
23:21She matches the description of the dead Chinese woman
23:24we fished out of the jar well.
23:28She's British.
23:59It's her.
24:03It's Mei-Lin.
24:05Yeah.
24:31That's it.
24:35But...
24:50Hey.
24:53Hello.
24:54Pike?
24:57I'm Jack.
24:58I, uh...
25:00look here.
25:01I just wanted to, uh...
25:04well...
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.
25:35Lost my virginity to her.
25:37Right.
25:37Okay.
25:39Now she's dead.
25:40She's taking my virginity with her to the grave.
25:46Do people from Hong Kong have graves?
25:51What does she want?
25:54Who do I ask?
25:56Her parents?
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, uh, really grateful to you for coming to talk to me.
26:31No one ever comes to talk to me.
26:34And you did.
26:44Ten days.
26:47You'd only know in 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.
27:15I don't know.
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.
27:33Couldn't say no, really, could I?
27:37How's the weather down there, then?
27:39Yeah, that's funny, Fred.
27:40You're a funny guy.
27:41I bet you've built that before.
27:43Not me personally,
27:43but I'm sure someone has, you know,
27:4530, 40 years ago.
27:47Eggshells.
27:47Sorry?
27:48Down here.
27:49Well, a situation like this, you know,
27:52us working together,
27:53pretending there's nothing unusual about you,
27:55can be awkward.
27:57So you, like a bad joke,
27:59break those eggshells.
28:00So that's what we're doing, is it?
28:01Killing poultry.
28:03See, it'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.
28:12Good.
28:16Good to meet you.
28:48Hmm.
28:49What is it?
28:51Nothing.
28:53A little 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
29:13of the amino acid tryptophan.
29:28Hi, it's Dr. Alexander.
29:30I'd like to run analytical tests
29:32outside of the normal tox profile on Mei Li.
29:36Yes, you just returned results on her.
29:38This time, look at serotonin
29:40and all analogues and derivatives of it.
29:44Okay.
29:45Thanks.
29:48So what does it mean?
29:49I don't know.
29:51Serotonin is synthesised from tryptophan,
29:54but why would it return at a high level?
30:04Hello.
30:04Hello.
30:05Detective Inspector Brad Casey.
30:08Looking for a Jackie Hu Wei Li.
30:15I am Jackie.
30:18How can I help you?
30:21Um, maybe we could speak somewhere private?
30:42Jackie.
30:43This is difficult news to tell you.
30:48Your daughter Mei's dead.
31:02Okay.
31:02I see you.
31:04Okay.
31:06We don't know what happened to her yet.
31:08We're still investigating.
31:16Okay.
31:19When did you last see me?
31:24I don't know exactly.
31:27Not longer.
31:28Okay.
31:30Okay.
31:31Um...
31:33I understand this is bad news, but...
31:36Um...
31:37We'd be grateful if you'd volunteer a sample of your DNA
31:40to help with the investigation.
31:48I...
31:49I...
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.
32:19Okay.
32:20All set.
32:23That's my number.
32:24If you need it.
32:28We'll be in touch.
32:39Hi, the 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?
33:28You look troubled.
33:29I'm not troubled.
33:30Puzzled.
33:31The swabs from Maley's back.
33:34What, from the acupuncture needle marks?
33:36As yet unconfirmed that they were made by acupuncture needles,
33:39but yes, they showed a high level of the amino acid tryptophan.
33:44Did you look for serotonin?
33:45Yes, and analogues and derivatives.
33:47The lab's just come back with a lethal amount of dimethyl serotonin.
33:52Also known as 5-hydroxy-N,
33:56and dimethyltryptamine, alkaloid tryptamine.
33:59Yes, also known as bufotenin,
34:02a serotonergic psychedelic and potent hallucinogenic.
34:05Bufotenin is an exotic, isn't it?
34:07Yes, a potent and non-selective serotonin receptor agonist.
34:11Made from plants or mushrooms.
34:13And toad venom.
34:19Used in Chinese medicine.
34:21Was it used in Chinese medicine?
34:23Apparently to treat cancer.
34:25Does she have cancer?
34:26Not that we could see.
34:27It'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, she probably didn't know what was happening.
34:54The mechanism of death in an overdose of bufotenin
34:57is asphyxiation leading to cardiac arrest.
35:00Constricts the airways.
35:01Hanging or drowning might be a misdirect.
35:04You are confusing the investigation.
35:05I 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?
35:19Well, we know that she had cupping treatment.
35:23And she had acupuncture.
35:26Kit, how many practitioners of Chinese medicine are there in Oxford?
35:29I mean...
35:30Pike might know who to speak to.
35:33Yeah.
35:42Hello. D.I.K.C.
35:43Hi, Fred.
35:45Oh, hello, Alex. How'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 results from the knot.
36:30Knot.
36:31Great quality.
36:32But it's a mixed sample hers and an unknown DNA, a 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.
36:50Will do.
36:51Have you found any more on Handel's?
36:53Handel's S-R-S-O-N-T.
36:56Yeah.
37:00Can I help?
37:02Uh, police here to see a Pike-George-Hendel-S-S-O-R-S-O-R-S-O-R-S
37:06-O-R-S-O-R-S-O-R-S-O-R-S-O-R-S-O-R-S-O.
37:28Understood.
37:30After you.
37:34Handel says Sorasant is trying to design a quantum chip that is a trillion times faster...
37:40...than today's supercomputer.
37:42Only a trillion?
37:57I do.
38:11Is this regarding me, Lee?
38:14Police business.
38:16Of course.
38:18Despite expecting you?
38:19I tried to call here several times, but no one answered.
38:22We don't take messages.
38:23Why is that?
38:24Security.
38:27Can I have a mobile phone, please?
38:32Pop them into a locker.
38:38I'll take you to Pike.
38:57Here.
39:03Apparently they're trying to make a qubit chip for 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.
39:18Lasers fired into the water, bumping electrons out of the salt.
39:23The laser is so fast, the water is able to switch states in picoseconds.
39:28It's a trillionth of a second.
39:33What happens in there?
39:38They do coding.
39:41They do coding.
39:41Developing artificial intelligence.
39:44Companies called Connata.
39:48I think it's a kind of a training place.
39:53Everyone just calls it their 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.
40:23You could power a whole city.
40:24That's all right.
40:29That's all right.
40:30Hello.
40:35I'm Bandic Bos, co-founder of Handler's Horizont.
40:41Can I help the police or bike?
40:57A water-based qubit chip in a quantum computer would use a tiny fraction of that
41:03and operate up to 100 million times faster for AI.
41:07100 million?
41:09Mm-hmm.
41:11Depending on the algorithm.
41:12There'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, along with a chap called Bendik Voss.
41:40Pike's chief technology officer.
41:42He's the brains behind it.
41:59Hi.
42:01Hi.
42:05Woo-Li, physics, or 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.
42:21Pike.
42:24We live in a zero-energy universe.
42:28You know what that means, Fred?
42:30Not a fucking clue.
42:34The 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.
42:43I 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, it accounts for spirits.
42:53It's ghosts.
42:55God.
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.
43:22Morning, Pike.
43:23I miss you.
43:26Big kiss.
43:30Thanks, Maylee.
43:32The guys in the room are building me a virtual interactive waifu.
43:37Morning, 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.
43:47I 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 to help us with our investigation.
43:59Of course.
44:23Did Maylee ever talk to you about Chinese medicine?
44:26Oh, God, yes.
44:28She 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?
44:41I don't think she ever mentioned it.
44:43Why?
44:44A few unanswered questions.
44:47A few.
44:49Only a few.
44:51I have thousands.
44:54Millions.
44:58This is a temple to 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.
45:41Apparently, 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.
46:01Songyi?
46:02It literally means Chinese medicine.
46:05An in-person consultation?
46:07It's worth a try.
46:11Okay.
46:20How did you meet May Lee?
46:22She worked for one of the companies in the building.
46:24Just along here.
46:26This one.
46:26The room.
46:27May work here?
46:28Yes.
46:31How long has she 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, some 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, she would look at me.
47:06I would look at her.
47:11First sight.
47:17You believe in love at first sight, Fred?
47:21Why 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?
48:07Su, sorry.
48:08My pronunciation is terrible.
48:10I know.
48:11Uh, Hua Chen Su?
48:13Am I saying it right?
48:14Can I ask you to me?
48:17Chen Su?
48:18Toad Venom?
48:21Hmm?
48:22Right.
48:24The police is going well.
48:25Oh, yeah, honey.
48:38How 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 they want it for cancer treatment sure i believe that
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
49:23okay okay cool
49:40this is it
49:45no key sorry no
49:53do you live alone yeah
49:59are you sure this is her house absolutely certain
50:10do you hear that what that no well i hear it someone's calling for help from inside
50:23oh
50:25OK.
50:45Oi! Ellie!
50:47Stop here!
50:49Ellie! Stop it!
50:51Are you OK?
50:54Unbelievable.
50:55Would you like me to call the police?
50:58I know I'm OK.
51:00Are you hurt?
51:02I'm OK.
51:03Come sit down.
51:05What's your name?
51:07Helen.
51:08I'm Nicky.
51:10Did he hurt you?
51:14He took my bag.
51:15You need to go to the police.
51:17They'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 OK.
51:28I'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.
51:39Bobstered.
51:39I'm so sorry.
51:42Here.
51:47Old school business card.
51:48Very 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.
52:01You've been really kind.
52:03I really appreciate it.
52:25Hey.
52:27Hey.
52:28Hey.
52:30How are you holding up?
52:40I've been meaning to tell you, but because of May Lee, I, uh...
52:49We've had an offer to buy Händels and Sori Sons.
52:52Another one?
52:54Not Musk or Altman.
52:56Please 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, stop it from destroying jobs, stop 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 won't be coming from any legit Chinese medicine clinic.
54:21You learn anything?
54:23Wu Li.
54:24A new word?
54:25The idea that we are organized energy.
54:29Nice idea.
54:30Ooh.
54:33Mei Li worked for a company in the same building called Comnata.
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?
54:51Mei Li's mum.
54:53Either I screwed up the DNA test or Mei Li was adopted.
54:57Let me see.
55:16I'm throwing four names.
55:17Yes.
55:25Do you think it's all on the time?
55:27Let me see.
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 wouldn't be useful to find out as much as we can about 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.
56:27Oh, my God.
56:34Oh, my God.
56:40Oh, my God.
56:43Oh, my God.
56:44Oh, my God.
56:45Oh, my God.
56:46Oh, my God.
56:47Oh, my God.
56:48Oh, my God.
56:48Oh, my God.
56:49Oh, my God.
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...
57:14Did 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.
