00:20May I suggest some of the strength?
00:22Strength? You mean don't throw him down the stairs?
00:25You know, one of these days I'm going to get you really drunk
00:27and you're going to tell me all about your old job.
00:29I don't think.
00:34Sam Haig.
00:36He's with the Scottish Telegraph.
00:38Attended the Finch trial.
00:41Every day.
00:42Well, don't know him.
00:44He and Merritt spent Thursday afternoons in a hotel room.
00:49She didn't introduce us.
00:51Even closer, she said you were.
00:52We didn't discuss her personal life, remember?
00:56Well, we believe they were working on a corruption case together.
01:00What sort of corruption?
01:01And where?
01:02Something that connected Graham Finch and Kirsty Atkins.
01:05Kirsty Atkins?
01:06Potential witness.
01:07You wouldn't allow to testify on the Finch case.
01:09And why wouldn't I?
01:11We were hoping you'd tell us.
01:13I have no recollection of this Kirsty Atkins or what she may or may not have to say in the
01:18case.
01:19I suggest you ask Liam Taylor.
01:22We did.
01:23He said to ask you.
01:25We know that Kirsty told Merritt that she testified that she met Finch's deceased wife a year before in a
01:32woman's refuge.
01:33The wife being there on account of Finch beating the living shit out of her.
01:37So this will have been new and not particularly helpful information for Finch.
01:41Then why wasn't she brought in?
01:43Kirsty was a prolific offender and long-time resident who stopped in prison.
01:47So not necessarily credible.
01:49Well, it's our understanding.
01:50Merritt thought differently.
01:51Soon after their conversation, Kirsty was jumped.
01:55So someone thought she was credible enough to try and stop her.
01:58So again, our question would be, why wasn't she called?
02:02Well, as I have no recollection of this individual, I can only comment generally.
02:05And generally with an individual like that, a jury just sees someone who wants to get out of prison.
02:10Well, in a few weeks, she'll be fresh out of prison, missing an eye,
02:13with several dozen scars left over from a shanking while she was in protective custody.
02:17Does he ever speak?
02:18Not if I can help it.
02:20And this attack would have been around the same time that you told Mary that she couldn't use Kirsty at
02:24trial.
02:25Well, I have to take your word for that, because once more, I have no recollection of any of this.
02:29But you agree?
02:31To make this happen, Finch would have needed friends on the inside.
02:35Huh.
02:36Oh, Mark.
02:37You are truly as advertised out of your fucking mind.
02:41Why would I ever help out someone like Graham Finch?
02:44Because he wasn't just a random husband who threw his half-pissed wife down the concrete stairs.
02:49He had money.
02:50He had juice.
02:52Finch was a long-time wrong guy with his own long-time connections.
02:55He had no need for any of my help.
02:57Merritt would have come to you if she wanted to call Kirsty in the case.
03:00Is there even a record of Merritt wanting to call Kirsty?
03:03I mean, why are you so certain of all of this?
03:05I believe Kirsty.
03:06The serial drug offender who wants out of prison.
03:09What about the journalist that Merritt was supposedly working with?
03:13He's dead.
03:14Had a bad fall the day before Merritt disappeared.
03:17Which, if you keep in score, means that's one dead, one life.
03:21One disappeared within a week after Merritt came to you with a witness who could put away Finch.
03:29Okay, Morg.
03:31You got me.
03:33I'm owned by Graham Finch.
03:36I assume he pays me in gold coins or something.
03:40No, sir.
03:42We think you were threatened by him.
03:45Indirectly.
03:47Your daughter, Julia.
03:49She was ran off the road during the trial.
03:54She in turn struck and seriously injured another man.
03:57It was all very messy.
04:00A father never stops thinking of all the ways that harm can touch what he cares about.
04:08For any man, this is a weakness.
04:12May I ask, sir, how do you know that Kirsty Atkins is a drug offender?
04:18You said so?
04:19No.
04:20DCI Morg said she was a prolific offender.
04:22That's all.
04:30It seems the only person who can help us prove any of this is dead.
04:36Well, we are not certain that Merritt is dead.
04:42You better hope she is.
04:46Thank you for your time.
06:45Yeah, they'll talk to William, but I'm too scary.
06:49You will.
06:50Very fucking scary.
06:52Aye, fucking right I am.
06:56I like talking to you, Rome.
06:59I can say almost anything to you.
07:01Almost?
07:02What can't you say?
07:03Give me an example.
07:03I can't give you an example.
07:05Why not?
07:05Because if I could say it to you, I'd say it.
07:08Good point.
07:14What's so funny?
07:16Lyle, what the fuck?
07:17Mum told me to tell you she needs you at home.
07:19Okay, you told me.
07:21Now fuck off.
07:22She told me to drag you out of here.
07:25Like that's gonna fucking happen.
07:32Smells like sex.
07:37That's if you'd know.
07:40I think you're da, see?
07:45It's okay.
07:46Just leave it.
07:52Hey, Harry.
07:54You in?
07:55Eh, nah, not today.
07:56We could've used you, though.
07:58I'm retired.
08:02I'm retired.
08:06You're Lyle Jennings.
08:08Mr Lingard.
08:09You're not here to burn the place down, are you?
08:11Da.
08:12No, sir.
08:13I'm just here to pick up Harry.
08:16Our ma needs him.
08:17She's awake, is she?
08:18We're just leaving.
08:19Aye.
08:24Lyle.
08:31See you tomorrow.
08:42What did I say about Harry Jennings being in the house when I'm not?
08:47He's not so bad.
08:49I'm talking to your sister.
08:51Me and Harry, we like each other.
08:54Harry and I.
08:56In fact, we love each other.
09:01Like Romeo and Julian.
09:02Oh, whatever.
09:03He's not gonna be coming back here anytime soon.
09:05You missed your brother's game.
09:07William doesn't care if I go to his stupid games, do you?
09:10If you want to.
09:10See, he doesn't care.
09:11That's not the point.
09:12What is the point then?
09:14Family.
09:18Yeah, that's what I thought.
09:22Do you mind?
09:50Do you mind?
10:00I don't know.
10:09I don't know.
10:16Let's go.
10:17Let's go.

16:46Let's go.
16:58Let's go.
16:59Juneå¼ Wow,-
16:59Oh, that's very generous of you.
17:17I think you're a f***ing rodent.
17:19I'm texting you something.
17:20Take a look at him.
17:21If you want to talk after you watch it, I'll be at the Golden Rule for the next hour.
17:25What the fuck are you talking about?
17:32Shall we watch?
17:57Oh, fuck!
18:28Hey.
18:33My tooth is infected.
18:36I need antibiotics.
18:38Better get a fucking dentist.
18:42What?
18:51No, I'll care for it. I'll just die from fucking sepsis.
18:55It won't be of the pleasure of doing it yourself.
18:56Sounds a bit anticlimactic.
18:59After all this time.
19:17He wasn't ever going to leave me alone.
19:20Every time I'd turn around, there he'd be staring at me.
19:23Staring at you?
19:24Yeah.
19:25I'd be eating or working out in the weight room.
19:29I'd be reading in the library and he'd come and sit across from me.
19:32I even caught him watching me sleep one time.
19:36I couldn't take that anymore.
19:37You messed him up pretty good.
19:39He may lose that eye.
19:43Sam, did you hear what I said?
19:46He might lose his eye.
19:49Do you feel anything?
19:51When I tell you that.
19:52Yeah. I feel good.
19:55You feel good?
19:56He wasn't ever going to leave me alone.
20:01Sam.
20:04I'm not his fucking brother.
20:07Had to get that into his head somehow.
20:09Pound it into his head, do you mean?
20:11Are you sure there wasn't something more to it?
20:14Like more what?
20:16Like more complicated.
20:18Nah.
20:19Nah, I'm done talking.
20:23Sam.
20:25I said I'm done talking.
20:29This concludes the post-defense interview with Samuel Haig, age 17.
20:3310th of March, 2013, at 11.09am.
20:37With myself, Terry Dundee, corrections counsellor at Godhaven, HMYOI.
20:43I knew Haig.
20:45Better than most.
20:46Which isn't saying much.
20:48Haig was fucking precious about everything.
20:51He wouldn't share sources.
20:53He wouldn't talk to anyone at the office.
20:55When he even bothered to show up.
20:57But still, everyone thought he was so clever.
20:59But not you.
21:00I fucking knew the guy.
21:01I knew the reason he got on so well with people who crossed the line.
21:05He was one of them.
21:06How did you get the video?
21:07It was on his computer.
21:08Oh, you hacked Haig's computer.
21:10After he died.
21:11You say it like it doesn't make a difference.
21:13How did Haig get the video?
21:15Someone at Godhaven must have gave it to him.
21:17He'd been going back and forth to the place in the last few months before he died.
21:22Why?
21:23He was working on a story.
21:25Can we read it?
21:26Look, I've still got some standards.
21:28Oh, fuck off.
21:29You're a journalist.
21:29You do your own mother from behind.
21:31How does any of this help us in our investigation of Merit Lingard?
21:33It helps you in your investigation into who killed Sam Haig.
21:36We're not investigating Haig's death.
21:38Well, maybe you should be.
21:40Sam found this kid.
21:42The one he was talking about in the video.
21:44The one he practically scalped to death.
21:46What is this kid's name?
21:47He called him X.
21:49To protect his identity.
21:51And how does Mr. X relate to Merit Lingard?
21:53Oh, wait.
21:54It doesn't.
21:55Unless Haig got screwed into whatever was happening with him and this kid from his past.
21:59Sounds like something a crackerjack journey like you should look into.
22:02Talk to Terry Dundee.
22:05The other voice on the tape.
22:06The one talking to Sam.
22:08He's still at Godhaven.
22:10I've reached out myself, but he gave me the big fuck off about how the records are sealed.
22:14This has been fascinating.
22:15Well, if you find anything more, keep you sure to remember me.
22:18Oh, my God.
22:26Oh, my God.
22:30Oh!
23:00Wow!
23:30Oh!
24:02Oh!
24:37Hey.
24:39All right?
24:41What are you watching?
24:42They're just some shite.
24:44Perfect.
24:47You had this look on your face earlier.
24:51I've never seen it before,
24:52even when you're super pissed off at me.
24:54When you went after that guy, you were like
24:56this guy I didn't even know.
24:57Yeah.
25:14Okay.
25:21I'm two people.
25:23Yeah?
25:25I have to be.
25:26I see things most days that no one person can see,
25:28that no one person can handle
25:30or should ever have to see in the first place, to be honest with you.
25:32Like what?
25:33What's the worst thing you've ever seen?
25:34No, I'm not gonna do that to you.
25:36I'm not gonna put what's in my head into yours.
25:38I didn't do it to your mum, I'm certainly not gonna do it to you.
25:40Why not?
25:41Because you live in a different world.
25:43Yeah?
25:43There's no need for you to know the specifics of the other world beyond that it exists.
25:47And that once in a blue moon, something from over there crosses into here.
25:50So the guy in the ice cream shop, he knows that.
25:53He wants to scare you by showing you the other world.
25:56He wants to make you so afraid that he fucking owns you.
26:00Well, you can't go through what you did without it stirring things up.
26:04Well, like, do you mean I'm gonna have nightmares and shit?
26:09Well, who knows what it'll be, but if you get taken to the point that you think you're gonna die,
26:13or you're around death, all of a sudden there's this menu of various and sundry shit
26:18that's just waiting to sneak up on you.
26:20Are you just trying to scare me?
26:21You're already scared.
26:23That's the whole point.
26:24You now know that things can change in an instant.
26:28You and me were members of the same club.
26:30Yeah, well, I don't want to be in that club.
26:32Yeah, well, no one joins voluntarily, fella.
26:37People spend their whole lives trying to avoid that kind of calamity.
26:42But you have to go to the meetings, you have to speak to the other members of the club
26:46so that you know you're not the only one out there who's thinking and feeling the shit.
26:51Are you thinking and feeling?
26:54What, so like you and Hardy?
26:58Yeah.
26:59Like me and Hardy.
27:01And now, me and you.
27:04Wait, you...
27:06You want to talk about it?
27:09Yeah.
27:10When you need to, sure.
27:13About what happened?
27:16About what's happening.
27:21And maybe we should start with you telling me how thoroughly pissed off you are
27:24at me ruining things with your mum.
27:28And then abandoning you when I was shot.
27:30I mean, that's not your fault.
27:33You couldn't help it.
27:35No.
27:37But you can still be mad.
27:39No, that's okay.
27:40You're allowed to be fucking mad.
27:42Maybe let's have our first meeting about that.
27:46I am here.
27:49I'm listening.
27:51Promise.
27:53I'm taking care of you.
28:04Promise.
28:06Promise.
28:09Promise.
28:12Promise.,
28:15Promise. I'm
28:15getting it. I'm
28:15getting it. You're
28:21getting it. I'm
28:21getting it. I'm
28:22getting it. She's
28:22Make a
28:33Not much of a file, is it?
28:35Police took one look at the height of that cliff
28:36and made the call right there.
28:38I'd likely have done the same myself.
28:41Injuries consistent with traumatic fall from a great height.
28:44As if there's a fall from a great height that's not traumatic.
28:46OK, so what's your problem?
28:48Outside of the timeline and the cause of death,
28:50both being very fucking dodgy.
28:52The guy who found Haig, Paul Evans.
28:55Yeah, the climber instructor.
28:56Yeah. He says he was with his wife the night before
28:59and found Haig's body in the morning
29:00when he went to take pictures for the website.
29:02OK.
29:02But the day he found Haig's body, it was pouring rain.
29:06But Scotland could have been rain when he woke up,
29:08sun when he got there and a fucking blizzard when he went home.
29:11He also sent about a dozen messages to Haig's burner phone that night.
29:15A few examples.
29:17No more secrets.
29:18I think you need to get everything out in the open.
29:21This isn't about my wife.
29:23I want you to know that I see you.
29:26Are you back at the hotel?
29:27Is she still there?
29:29What? Hold on, hold on. Who's she?
29:31It's got to be Merritt.
29:32And there was no response until the last message which said,
29:35I'm going for a climb.
29:36S.
29:38And no one followed up on any of it.
29:40Well, it's all irrelevant to Haig's death once it was deemed accidental.
29:43It's not irrelevant to Merritt.
29:45Haig and Merritt had been meeting up at the Prince's Garden Hotel.
29:49And Haig's editor said that he had a burner phone for security.
29:52So Evans was talking to Haig about all that stuff about secrets and I see you and all that?
29:56What, you and Carl don't talk to each other like that?
29:58I don't talk to my wife like that.
30:00Maybe you should.
30:02Hello, Rose.
30:03Hey, Donna.
30:04You want breakfast, Mr. Grumpy Arse?
30:07I'm not hungry.
30:07You really want to face the wee angel of darkness on an empty stomach?
30:10I'm not hungry.
30:11Suit yourself.
30:12For fuck's sake.
30:14Rose, you want anything? A cup of tea?
30:15Ah, no thanks. I've had too many cups already.
30:20Did you tell Ritesh to mow the lawn?
30:22Yeah, why?
30:23He's your carer, not your gardener.
30:24Well, the gardener needs more care than I do.
30:27Looks like shite.
30:28And he's better off out there than for hovering around all the time.
30:35Angel of darkness?
30:37Physiologist who's either going to get me walking again or locked up for murder.
30:40Okay, so, tell me.
30:44If Carl already shook the tree of Paul Evans, then why are we having this conversation?
30:50Evans' story's full of holes.
30:52Yeah, it's leaky as fuck.
30:53Most probably because he doesn't want anyone to know about his special friendship with Sam Hague.
30:56Or he knows more than he's saying. About merit.
30:59Well, if you think that, then go back and pester him again. Ask him.
31:03Ask him?
31:04What he's hiding?
31:05What, just come right out and ask him?
31:07Well, why not? That's what you want to know, isn't it?
31:09Paul Evans is not going to tell me if he's hiding something.
31:12Well, there's ways to ask and there's ways not to ask, if you know what I mean.
31:17Depends on how big your balls are.
31:19I don't even have...
31:22Well, they're not that big.
31:23Wrong answer.
31:25I'm serious, Rose.
31:27If that's true, then what the fuck are you doing here?
31:31Try again.
31:35I have very big balls.
31:38There you go. That was easy.
31:42Let's me and you figure out how you're going to fuck with Paul Evans.
31:46I know.
31:55I know.
32:04I know.
32:08I know.
32:12I know.
32:12I know.
32:14I know.
32:15The end of the tunnel is bound to look for us, is that the end of the tunnel,
32:23I don't know.
33:04I don't know.
33:37I don't know.
33:40I don't know.
33:42I don't know.
