00:02What, Jim?
00:03All I wanted to do was disappear and leave you in peace.
00:07But George Cornelius put pay to that,
00:09and that's why I'm back to wrap his knuckles.
00:12I can handle George Cornelius.
00:14No, you can't, John.
00:15Go home, Lee.
00:18Witness hasn't the clue as to what happened.
00:20The victim's an ex-pupil.
00:21Lee Peck.
00:22A killer chaser from Ballarat Street?
00:24Vivian Lake.
00:25You're being too reckless.
00:27I'm sorry.
00:28Hello, I'm Jeremy.
00:30I think she cleans up for him,
00:32and she hates him for it.
00:34My wife is very jealous
00:35because she finds out she'll strangle him.
00:39So does that mean Vivian doesn't know about Penny Leighton?
00:44Go!
00:45Where is Jeremy?
00:46Where is he?
00:48Now, I don't know what's going on between you and Luther,
00:51but you need to stay away from my office.
00:54Yes.
00:54It's a farmer.
00:56There's convenience, it's all.
01:00Leave him be.
01:01None of this is his fault.
01:02Six-one.
01:04Bright eyes.
01:04Muscular breath.
01:06Here.
01:07Now.
01:07No more chat.
01:08Alright, I'm coming, I'm coming!
01:14I'm going to send you to a series of checkpoints.
01:17You won't know the final destination until you arrive.
01:20Mark isn't a part of this.
01:21I need to know that he's walking away.
01:23Do as I say.
01:24He gets to go home and watch the one show.
01:27And Alice?
01:28Sorry.
01:30You know how it is.
01:33I still need to know he's alright.
01:34I need proof.
01:36You have my word.
01:37I said I need proof.
01:41Stay by your phone.
02:29I'm coming.
02:30I'll be right back.
02:31I can't see it.
02:33I'll be right back.
02:34I can't see it.
02:35I'll be right back.
02:35I'll be right back.
02:37I'm coming back.
02:37What are you coming up?
02:58Yes, yes, it is organic yes, and the kitchen roll
03:05No, no, I got Brabens instead sorry excuse me about 10 minutes
03:12Yeah, love you. Yes. Yeah. Sorry. Excuse me
03:20I'm so sorry
03:23I'm afraid you drop this
03:26That's so kind. Thank you. No, no worries. Help me to help
03:57I'm scared
04:02Love is like a sin, my love
04:08For the ones that feel it the most
04:15Look at her with her eyes like a flame
04:23She will love you like a fly
04:52Stay away from the door, he said
04:53He's not here, is he?
04:55He's out there
04:57Preparing to kill John
04:59And then you
05:00And then me
05:04Well if that's what he wants
05:05Why hasn't he done it already?
05:07John wouldn't come here without proof of life
05:10Well your life anyway
05:12Mine not so much
05:19You make a good bag lady
05:22Thank you, listen
05:22We need every scrap of insulation we can find
05:25Or we'll be frozen to death by the time he gets here
05:38Don't you give me the runaround
05:39Don't you give me the runaround
05:50Gov, where are you?
05:52So it turns out Jeremy Lake was keeping
05:54I don't know what to call it, a scrapbook
05:56Look Catherine, I need some help
05:58What sort of help?
05:59I just need you to find someone from here, alright?
06:01His name's Ronald Massey
06:05He works for a man I need to find
06:08I mean, if I can't just, I mean who is he?
06:11Look Catherine, I'll be there as soon as I can
06:13I'll bring in Jeremy Lake, but I need you to do this first
06:16Okay, can you just do it?
06:18Boss, I
06:18Catherine, do it!
06:37Massey, see you
06:39My love Massey
06:46My love Massey
06:48My love Massey
07:07My love Massey
07:28The masks of Lake's own face, which is new behavior as far as we know, but it is consistent
07:35with some of the images in the diary.
07:38Is condition disinhibiting him?
07:40Yeah, or maybe he knows we're breathing down his neck and he's decided to go all carpe diem
07:45on us.
07:47Do we have the faintest notion where DCI Luther is?
07:51Sorry, boss.
07:54Catherine, do you know anything I don't know?
07:59Sorry, boss, no.
08:04Vivian Lake knows her husband's mind.
08:07She's the only one who can help us get ahead in this.
08:09Let's bring her in.
08:10Well, she's being treated at the hospital.
08:12I don't care.
08:13Wheel her in in a gurney if needs be.
08:24Hey, Gov.
08:25I don't know what your other thing is, but the big boss, he's on his last nerve and I don't
08:30feel comfortable live for you.
08:32Things are really kicking off here.
08:34We need you.
08:41Hello.
08:42I'm inquiring about the availability of Ileana this evening.
08:48Overnight for preference.
08:52Oh, good.
09:00Yes, hello, King of plumbers.
09:01I have a dreadful smell coming from my drains.
09:26Dr. Lake, if you would follow me, please.
09:49Boss, we should probably go.
09:50Nah, soddy.
09:51It's just a drill.
09:53Well, they usually say when it's a drill.
09:55It will go when the hair on your bollocks starts to sizzle.
09:59I'll just...
09:59Let me go and check.
10:00Hey.
10:03Hey!
10:21Hey!
10:22Hey!
10:24Hey!
10:34Call him off.
10:44We're on schedule.
10:46My fish will be here soon.
10:47Yeah, I actually need you to hold off on that for a bit.
10:50Why?
10:51Because that's what I want.
10:54We entered into a contract.
10:56You'll get your money.
10:57Just tell me where they are and then take the rest of the day off.
11:01Go to the pictures or something.
11:03It's not that easy.
11:05A police officer is dead.
11:07I can't have that coming back on me.
11:09It won't come back on you.
11:10Just text me the address and then pack your sandwiches and go home.
11:14I'll make sure everything's tied off.
11:24He says a cop is dead.
11:27Yeah.
11:29That'll be your mate?
11:30Yes.
11:32Well, for what it's worth, I didn't ask for that.
11:34Didn't you?
11:36Your mate chucked it in for free, didn't he?
11:39So where does that leave us?
11:50I came to offer you for Benny.
11:56I'm going to end this.
12:17All this eye for an eye bullshit.
12:19It's all just a game, isn't it, George?
12:22You don't want this.
12:24You don't want any of it, do you?
12:28You lost your discipline, George.
12:31You robbed Alice.
12:32You robbed you back.
12:32Now Alice is dead.
12:33That's not her fault.
12:34That's your fault.
12:35Benny's dead.
12:36That's not your fault.
12:37That's my fault.
12:38I couldn't shoot you in the head because I made a mistake.
12:40But if you can shoot me, then go ahead and do that.
12:42It doesn't change anything, does it, George?
12:44What I lost was my son.
12:55Bye for an eye.
13:01You think I won't do this and piss on your body after?
13:04Go in, George.
13:07Just do it.
13:10That's it.
13:13Go in.
13:39Stop there.
13:44You have a gun?
13:46Oh.
13:56So where's Luther?
13:58He's in the boot.
14:02Dead?
14:04There's Adodo's granddad.
14:08How did you find him?
14:10He came to me, as it happens.
14:13And how did he find you?
14:15Not entirely sure, to be frank.
14:17But there you are.
14:18He was a clever old sausage, but not bulletproof, as it turns out.
14:25Open the boot.
14:26Oh, come on.
14:27Now, if you would.
14:34Open the boot.
14:38All right, all right.
14:40As you speak, so shall it be.
15:06I don't get it.
15:10He's in our time.
15:11I'm Adolf.
15:12He's Neville.
15:13You're the Sudeten man.
15:14You're going to go down.
15:15You're going to go to prison for killing my friend.
15:16Do you understand that?
15:18And if I don't agree?
15:19I'll shoot you dead right now and tell a story to my boss.
15:34No!
15:35No!
15:36No!
15:39What did I tell you?
15:40You're going to jail.
15:42And you're not going to hate me.
15:47Sorry, old bean.
15:48Couldn't take the risk.
15:54Here we are.
15:56You, smoking gun, dumbing evidence and whatnot.
16:00All in the cloud.
16:02Whatever that actually is.
16:05I'd have the gun.
16:07I think it's one of mine anyway.
16:09You're a clever one, aren't you, George?
16:13You would have been a good copper.
16:15No.
16:16Too honest to have been a copper.
16:20Shink came to me, John.
16:22He knows something's not right between me and you.
16:25I'll sell this to Shink.
16:28You trust me.
16:30So do I.
16:31But only because I've got this.
16:41Alice?
17:02Alice?
17:02Alice?
17:42There's your friend in there?
17:44Yeah.
17:45Aren't you going to call someone?
17:47I'll find him.
17:49We can't just leave him here.
17:51We have to.
17:53For God's sake, he's your friend.
17:56He got himself killed trying to protect us.
18:01Do you think I want to be doing this, Mark?
18:03Do you think I want to be doing this?
18:18And he's dead.
18:20The man that killed him is dead.
18:21And all I'm trying to do is handle it so that your name is clear.
18:33What time does your wife get back?
18:34I have seven.
18:37I think we need to get back and clean the scene.
18:42What's happened to you, John?
18:43What?
18:53I love you.
18:54There.
18:58I love you.
19:13What about the George Cornelius problem?
19:16Have you dealt with it?
19:19Yeah.
19:20Let's not be coy. Is he dead, John?
19:22Yeah.
19:24Because it's the only way.
19:26He'll kill us both. You do know that.
19:27An assistant.
19:30You wouldn't lie to me, would you, John?
19:33Not about something this important.
19:41No.
19:43Because you're the only person I ever knew
19:45who always told me the truth.
19:49Come what may, you never lied to me.
19:56It's done.
20:21That'll be your fancy lady calling you in for tea.
20:23All right, why don't you just give it a rest.
20:25I've got to deal with this thing.
20:26Deal with it, then.
20:27Just go home and we'll talk later.
20:29Good luck with your whatnot.
20:30Not...
20:53Hello?
20:56Hello?
20:58Who's this?
21:00Oh, my God.
21:33I hope you're not too uncomfortable.
21:36A young woman just stared at me. Of course I'm uncomfortable.
21:41I'm afraid that a number of doctors have certified you fit to be questioned.
21:46And if there's one thing we can all agree on is, well, you can always trust a doctor.
21:52Mate.
21:57We know your husband is gravely ill, Vivian. Jeremy doesn't have long.
22:03One more Christmas, perhaps. But he'll never see another summer.
22:09Now, if we can find and detain him, his case will never get to court.
22:16He'll never go to prison.
22:18The worst he can expect is a few months in a secure hospital.
22:24But he will stop.
22:29This will stop.
22:36This will stop.
22:45And this.
22:53It will stop.
23:02This will stop.
23:26I have no idea about Jeremy's activities.
23:30I'm as horrified as you are.
23:33Oh, I doubt if you have the capacity.
23:36And to be fair, we did catch you in a plastic-lined room
23:39getting ready to disarticulate Penny Layton with surgical tools.
23:43I'm afraid you misinterpreted that situation.
23:46Actually, I was there to rescue her.
23:49Get her out of there. Poor thing.
23:52But you were wearing surgical scrubs
23:54and were attacking her with a hammer.
23:58I was defending myself from a very confused and frightened young woman
24:03who understandably, given her state of delirium,
24:06misread the situation and believed incorrectly
24:09that I was there to do her ill.
24:18I have to make a call.
24:21We've had some urgent news.
24:25Let's hope it's the news we all want.
24:28Eh?
24:32T.S. Halliday.
24:33If you would hold the fort, please.
24:48Where have you been?
24:52I got called away to something that didn't pan out, boss.
24:57And he knew St. Benny.
25:00No.
25:01No, he called in sick.
25:06I've been called away.
25:08I want you in there with Vivian Lake.
25:10I'm on my way.
25:27What do I need to know?
25:29Sir, we were investigating reported gunshots.
25:32You might want to get somewhere private.
25:35I am somewhere private.
25:36You can go ahead.
25:53We found a disposable phone in the glove box.
25:56Call reports.
25:58Most likely any calls were made to another burner.
26:02Fine.
26:04So, I will need you to determine where that phone was last year.
26:10See if you can find any CCTV footage corresponding with the time and place of that usage.
26:16Absolutely.
26:17You have all the resources you need, but none of the time.
26:20I want this now.
26:22And this stays stum.
26:27Are we clear?
26:30Nobody says a word.
26:31No time.
26:32Okay.
26:33Anyone else?
26:34In the area.
26:54Sorry I'm late.
26:58I've had a very busy day.
27:08So.
27:11Where did you meet?
27:14You and Jeremy?
27:17Is that relevant?
27:19I dunno.
27:24We struck up a conversation at a dinner party talking about Tony Blair over baked brie and raspberry jam.
27:31That's not true.
27:33You met at a play party, basically a fetish club.
27:40You really are bourgeois little prudes, aren't you?
27:45Thought police.
27:46Sex police.
27:49You're erecting an edifice of speculation on a foundation of puritanical distaste.
27:55No.
27:56That's not what I'm doing.
27:57I'm basically trying to establish whether you would like to protect your privacy.
28:01And the answer turns out to be yes, which I find very interesting.
28:05Did you know that Jeremy kept a diary?
28:12Bit of a leap to conclude that's a diary, isn't it?
28:15It looks more like a sketchbook to me.
28:20Okay.
28:21What about these?
28:22These are actual drawings of murder sings.
28:26Which makes me think about these other sketches too, which are...
28:30Well, I don't know.
28:31I mean, are these real too?
28:33Clearly not.
28:35It's an explication of Jeremy's fantasy life and outlook.
28:39Masturbatory aid, nothing more.
28:42Yeah, possibly.
28:43Could be.
28:44But it's not just the drawings, is it?
28:46I mean, it's the...the text.
28:51Well, that'll be a cipher text of Jeremy's own construction.
28:56Well, God knows what it says.
28:57Do you think you could decipher it for us?
28:59Oh, I'd love to.
29:00But, uh, very much doubt I'd be able.
29:10You have to get rid of this stuff properly.
29:13No throwing it away in your own bin.
29:15Oh, thank heavens I'm here with a criminal master night.
29:18Otherwise, whatever would I have done?
29:20I have to go, Mark.
29:21I promise you won't see me again.
29:25Well, that'd be a shame.
29:30Some valedictory advice.
29:33Don't let John Luther back through your door.
29:37Not under any circumstance or for any reason.
29:42He's not what you think he is.
29:49Alice.
29:52You have to stop.
29:56Oh, God knows you are what you are.
29:57You're not a psychopath.
29:59You're not...
30:01Without conscience.
30:02You cannot live like this.
30:05I know.
30:07Do you need help?
30:08Is there something I...
30:12Hello?
30:23I had a boss once.
30:26Her name was Rose Teller.
30:28Really good cop.
30:30She used to say, um, an assumption is something you don't know you're making.
30:38Do you know the assumption you're making, Vivian?
30:40Yeah.
30:45Oh, I might be able to help answer that.
30:51You're assuming that Jeremy doesn't want people to read what he's written.
30:56Then why employ a ciphertext in the first place?
31:00Because he doesn't want you to know what he's written.
31:04He doesn't want you to know that he's written it all down.
31:09Everything that you've done.
31:11Together.
31:13Dates.
31:14Times.
31:16Places.
31:18Because that's the difference between you and him, isn't it?
31:21I mean, you are very private.
31:23Don't want anyone to know the truth about you.
31:25Not ever.
31:26And he is very proud of what he's done.
31:29He's done with being anonymous.
31:31He's done with someone else taking the credit.
31:35This isn't a diary.
31:37It's a confession, isn't it?
31:41And why does that leave you?
31:44I don't know what you mean.
31:44Yes, you do!
31:46You do, Vivian, don't you?
31:49You know exactly where that leaves you.
31:53If Jeremy has implicated you as an accessory to murder,
31:56you know exactly what that means.
31:58Well, obviously you wouldn't do that.
32:00Are you willing to bet the rest of your life on that?
32:03No, of course you're not.
32:05Because he has been letting you down recently, hasn't he?
32:10Come on, Vivian.
32:11Help us and we can help you.
32:15You are going to prison, Vivian.
32:19But for how long is really up to you?
32:30May I have a glass of water, please?
32:31No, you may not.
32:43Jeremy's most outré fantasy, and I have to stress to the best of my knowledge it was just a fantasy,
32:51was to play a game of what he called happy families.
32:56To sit in a house and summon people to him.
33:00Let them turn up the door.
33:04Lambs to the slaughter.
33:05Lambs to the slaughter.
33:06I will make them close.
33:34If you don't pick my ears and summon people to
33:36Sir?
33:43The phone was used here. He arrives alone.
33:52George Cornelius.
34:04All right, George.
34:08You wanted it old school.
34:21Thanks for coming so quickly.
34:22Yeah, no worries. Sorry what you're looking at.
34:25Through there.
34:36So Jeremy Lake's gone to ground.
34:39He's holed up somewhere getting people to come to him.
34:42How are we supposed to find him? There are like 60,000 streets in London.
34:46And previous murders, they don't tell us anything. There's no pattern. They're random.
34:50They're not disorganized, are they?
34:54I mean, everything he's doing, he's doing to tell himself how clever he is.
34:58And oh, the audacity of that. I mean...
35:03He can take care of whoever he wants whenever he wants.
35:07He can have the police run around in circles.
35:10He can make the police blame the wrong man.
35:12And then he's come to an end.
35:16Which means he's gone somewhere. Significant, with meaning.
35:20To who?
35:20To us.
35:23To him. I mean, if you were him, like, where's the most audacious place you could go?
35:29Uh, if I were him, I would go home.
35:33No. Too big a police presence.
35:36Where's the next best equivalent?
35:41Well, if I couldn't go to where the police are, I'd go to where they just left.
35:47Left. Right. Yes.
35:48Bad Oak Street. The school teacher.
35:53Should we tell someone?
35:56No. Not until we've checked it out.
35:59Are you sure?
36:00I am sure. Come on.
36:27Eleana.
36:30Wow.
36:31You need a coffee?
36:33Mm-hmm.
36:36Please.
37:01He's not skinny.
37:04And then Dish.ly.
37:09That dick doesn't
37:10come. No yeah. Go.
37:14I am pretty是不是.
37:22I am
37:27Eleana.
37:38Move to the counter!
37:44Do not move!
37:56Martin, I think it's time maybe we discuss getting me some legal protection.
38:03I can't put it together, George.
38:06I've tried, but I can't work out what happened.
38:12I need a show of goodwill, an upfront payment, right now.
38:48You know, I told you, Martin.
38:51Your lads are wronging.
39:03Hey, boss.
39:05Dears Halliday.
39:06Are you with DCI Luther?
39:09Yes, I am.
39:11Now I need you to listen to me very carefully.
39:16Without alerting DCI Luther to this order, I need you to bring him back to the station as soon as
39:23possible.
39:25Okay, yeah.
39:26If you alert him to this, there is every chance that he will run. Do you understand me?
39:34Yeah, got it.
39:36Good.
39:37Now get him back to the station.
39:41Tell him I have some interesting news that I want to give him face to face.
39:55Schenker's asked you to bring me back in, hasn't he?
39:58Uh, yeah.
39:59Yeah, he said that he's got some news, something he wants to tell you.
40:05Fair dues.
40:20I'm not going anywhere into this. He's dealt with.
40:26You think he's in there?
40:28I know he is.
40:29How?
40:32Plumber's van. Pest control.
40:35Food delivery, all people that would come to you.
40:38We can get back up in nine, ten minutes?
40:42No, I've got no evidence.
40:45If we call it in, we'll have to go for due process.
40:48Get a warrant, it'll go on and on and on.
40:50And what does that mean for anyone that's alive in there now?
40:58If you found out tomorrow that if we weren't in there today, you could have saved someone's life, would you
41:03be okay with that?
41:03Boss, that's not fair.
41:09Right, do what you have to do.
41:18No, no, no, no.
41:40Oh?
41:55Hmm.
42:06Oh he's looking at his life.
42:09creatures of...
43:54Catherine.
43:56Get rid of him.
43:58But what about you?
44:31Catherine.
44:33Catherine.
44:42Stop, boss.
44:57What did you think?
44:59Do you like it?
45:24You okay?
45:28Yeah, yeah.
45:32Should know Shank's on his way.
45:37You called it in, didn't you?
45:44You know they're coming for me, right?
45:46Yeah.
45:48Yeah.
45:49What did you do?
45:52I think I can't fix.
45:55I just need time.
45:56No.
45:58Are you asking me to let you go?
46:02Catherine, I have to go, okay?
46:05It's a mess.
46:07But it's not what it looks like, I promise you that.
46:10Can I stop you from leaving?
46:15No.
46:18Then I won't try.
46:26John.
46:32Did you use me as bait in there?
46:38Send me downstairs to lure him out.
46:43No.
46:46I think you did.
46:50I think you dragged me here and threw me in front of him.
46:53So that you could be the man to stop him.
46:57That is not what happened.
47:05So what did happen?
47:11Why are you making such a fuss?
47:14I mean, this is what happens, isn't it, to those of us who are no longer useful?
47:22Who's next, hmm?
47:25Could it be me, I wonder?
47:26Well, no, I won't let that happen, John.
47:30I can't allow it.
47:34She did nothing to you, Alice.
47:38Neither did my parents, really, or Henry Madsen, or Ian Reid.
47:42It never seemed to...
47:43You never seemed to mind, really, though, did you?
47:46Well, what are you going to do this time, DCI Luce, sir?
47:50Arrest me?
47:50Well, yes, you should.
47:52But you won't, will you?
47:53You'll let me go.
47:55Because think of the tales I could tell.
48:00How?
48:02How are you going to cover this up?
48:04I wonder.
48:04What lies can you tell?
48:08Quick, John.
48:10Think of a lie.
48:12Come on, come on.
48:13Think of a lie.
48:14Put it down.
48:15Make me liar.
48:17Liar.
48:17Liar!
48:20Next one's in your mouth.
48:22Put it down, Alice.
48:24In a minute, liar.
48:25Stop.
48:27Oops.
48:27Oops.
49:00Oh, my God.
49:52Oh, my God.
50:01Oh, my God.
50:17Oh, my God.
50:27Oh, my God.
50:33Oh, my God.
50:40Oh, my God.
50:43Oh, my God.
51:12Oh, my God.
51:17Oh, my God.
51:32Oh, my God.
52:00You need to stop.
52:01I gave you an excuse to behave exactly how you wanted.
52:04You need help.
52:06It's just words, isn't it, Alice?
52:09It's just words, just words, trying to justify what you really came here to do.
52:13And what's that, please, and what's that, please, from this, from this, from this, from me, and you.
52:23You keep coming back, and coming back, but you're never going to get what you want, but you're going to
52:29get what you want, Alice, never.
52:32Because what I want doesn't exist.
52:33No, so, so how many more bullets, so many more.
52:36So how many more bullets, and I've got enough, how many more?
52:40Oh!
52:43God!
52:44Ah!
52:45Oh!
52:45Oh!
53:09What now, John?
53:15Alice Morgan, I'm arresting you for the murder of...
53:22For the murder of Sergeant Catherine Halliday.
53:29Of course you are.
53:33You have the right to remain...
53:37The thing is, John, you don't understand, love.
53:40You can mimic it, you can recognise it in others,
53:43but you can never understand it.
53:47Is this it?
53:49Is this it?
53:51Love?
53:53Yes.
53:55Guess what?
53:57I lied to.
53:58There's one bullet left.
54:04They just needed us to be really close.
54:14Goodnight, John.
54:30Alice...
54:31You need to help me!
54:35No...
54:36Alice...
54:41Hi!
54:49Oh!
54:55Oh!
54:57Oh!
55:02Oh!
55:04Oh!
55:09Oh
55:30Not like that
55:51Oh, my God.
56:24Baby, you understand me now
56:30If sometimes you see that I'm mad
56:36Don't you know no one alive can always be an angel
56:42Sometimes I find myself alone regretting
56:47Some little foolish thing
56:49Some simple thing that I've done
56:53Done just a soul whose intentions are done
57:01Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
57:10Don't let me be misunderstood
57:13I try so hard
57:17So please don't let me be misunderstood
57:20I try so hard
57:21I try so hard
57:21I try so hard
57:21So please don't let me be misunderstood
57:22I try so hard
57:23I try so hard
57:25And I try so hard
57:25Let me know
57:25I try so hard
