00:00MUSIC
00:26Aw, babe!
00:27Do you have to do things so publicly?
00:29I don't want any remainders of her.
00:32Will's out. There's no better time to get rid of her rubbish.
00:34Well, do you not think he's going to clock on when she's not here?
00:37Well, across that bridge when I come to it.
00:39I'll just say that you and her fell out.
00:41You'll have no problem believing that.
00:42Fair enough. Don't ever recall falling in with her, to be honest.
00:46Oh!
00:47Love, watch your knick-knacks, will you?
00:49Why? You've always hated them.
00:51Well, granted, nobody could love that porcelain Dalmatian.
00:54Looks like it's cocking its leg up, but hate's a strong word.
00:57Yeah, well, it perfectly sums up how I feel right now.
01:00You don't mean that.
01:01Don't I?
01:02I'll text her and let her know the stuff's here.
01:04If it's still here tomorrow, I'll douse it in petrol, set it alight.
01:08I don't want anything to do with her.
01:10If that's how you really feel,
01:12you might as well do the same to me while you're at it.
01:15There's only one killer in this family.
01:18I never set out to hurt anyone in my life.
01:22Yeah, you never set out to sleep with a squaddie either, but you did it.
01:25You've been letting people down all your life.
01:27Me, most of all.
01:28How dare you speak to me like that?
01:30I am still your mother.
01:31That's just a technicality, Maggie.
01:33And believe me, if I could change that, I would.
01:39You all right, love?
01:41I just can't believe he would speak to me like...
01:45Come next door, make you a brew.
01:49Looks like you could use one.
01:57You all right there, Roy?
02:00Still browsing.
02:02Well, no offence, but I've seen people spend less time buying houses.
02:07Can I help?
02:08A local free-range farmer ordinarily supplies the cafe with eggs,
02:13but for personal consumption, hardly seems worth the trip.
02:18How fresh are yours?
02:20Eggs is eggs.
02:21And they are as good as the date on the box.
02:25Oh, hey, Roy.
02:26We're just going to come and see you.
02:28How can I help you?
02:29It's about Sam.
02:31How is he?
02:32Well, I want to say fine, but...
02:34Still struggling now?
02:36Yeah.
02:36You've just found out that Megan's pleading not guilty,
02:39so there's going to be a trial.
02:40And he'll be called to give evidence.
02:42Yeah, we wanted to get him through it unscathed,
02:45or I don't know, just...
02:46He likes spending time, don't you?
02:48So would you just pop in on him?
02:51Of course.
02:51Well, he's excellent company
02:53and a worthy adversary on the chessboard.
02:57Well, as the cafe is not open for another couple of days,
03:00yes, I'll pop by and have a game with him.
03:03Oh, that'd be fab.
03:04He normally comes to the bistro straight after school, so...
03:06Right, well, I'll see him there.
03:09Thanks, Roy.
03:10Well, your daddy shouldn't buy your sweets,
03:12not before nursery.
03:13The teachers will have nervous breakdowns.
03:15You've given your old granny aggro.
03:18What's this to do with you?
03:20Oh, I know they can be a handful and a little.
03:22Especially at your age.
03:24Ah.
03:24I think I can handle it.
03:26Yeah, looks like it.
03:27What's the problem?
03:28She's not getting Daring any sweets.
03:31That's because I've seen what happens after he's eaten them.
03:33Oh, hyper on sugar, is he?
03:35Bouncing off the walls.
03:37Anyway, it's none of your business.
03:39Right, come on.
03:40We've got places to be.
03:44It was a tussle in the heat of the moment,
03:47and Alan fell.
03:50So you were, Rowan.
03:52Yeah, we were.
03:53And I admit, I kept that from Ben at the time.
03:56Boy, have you never thought of just telling him?
03:59I know what grief does to people.
04:01You look for someone to blame, just like Finlay has.
04:05Ben needed me.
04:07He didn't need a reason to push me away.
04:09He was devastated by the loss of his father.
04:13Close with him.
04:14Yeah.
04:16That's why the business with your dad hit him hard.
04:20Yeah, well, him and me both.
04:22Always very difficult to find out something uncomfortable about your parents.
04:26No one felt more guilty about us than Jim.
04:30He adored you and your brother.
04:33There was never any doubt about that.
04:35You were his life.
04:39Just like Ben and the boys are mine.
04:43Oh, look, it's going to be all right this, you know.
04:47I'll speak to Ben.
04:48And we'll sort it.
04:54Windass is no stranger to violence.
04:56And he had no time for Theo in the end.
04:59And he's also the ex-partner of your current missus.
05:01Right, well, that's got nothing to do with it.
05:03The more I think about it, the more I think he's a number one suspect.
05:06Well, good luck proving it.
05:09Well, I'm hoping the CCTV from the builders I will do for his alibi.
05:13Bad news on that score, I'm afraid.
05:15Digital forensics came back.
05:16They couldn't retrieve the footage.
05:17Why not?
05:18I don't know.
05:19Do I look like a computer geek?
05:21Suffice to say, the people that do couldn't recover it, so...
05:24Right, well, I suppose it was a long shot.
05:27But with no murder weapon, we're back to square one, aren't we?
05:30Yeah.
05:31Well, it's that way.
05:33So you've got to stick your thinking, Capon, aren't you?
05:35Yeah.
05:35And the kettle while you're at it.
05:45Could get used to afternoons in here.
05:47Feels very decadent.
05:50Well, it's your day off, and if I can't take a coffee break now and again, what's the point of
05:53being my own boss?
05:55You're a markably chipper under the circumstances.
05:59Circumstances?
06:00Yeah, Kit taking all your scaffolding and the other girl from the yard.
06:03Well, there's nothing for him to find.
06:04He's clutching at straws.
06:06Either that or there's some tiles come off the police station roof.
06:10I can't believe you're being so blasey about this.
06:13It could be a murder charge.
06:14Not for me, it won't.
06:15I didn't do it.
06:16Yeah, I trashed the van, but that's it.
06:20Well, even so, as soon as they find who did kill him, I'll be able to rest easy.
06:26And Theo, for that matter.
06:29Don't shed any tears for him.
06:32Whoever offed that creep did the world a favour.
06:38Hey, looking for something?
06:47No.
06:48Found something.
06:50You'll never believe what someone put in my bag.
06:53Er, I'm afraid you'll have to enlighten me.
06:56It's a tracking device.
06:59Someone's planted a tracker in my school bag.
07:01But how would they procure it?
07:04I doubt that any of your classmates are spymasters.
07:08You can buy them anywhere.
07:10Really?
07:11How extraordinary.
07:13But why would anyone want to track your movements?
07:17Got there somehow.
07:20Why don't we discuss the possibilities over a game of chess?
07:25I don't know, Roy.
07:27Well, if we're to solve this mystery, what better undertaking to inspire logical reasoning?
07:35OK.
07:38Let's go through to the office, so I can't concentrate here.
07:47Listen, love, I sympathise, I really do, but the street is not the place to be pegging out your dirty
07:52washing.
07:53Sorry if I embarrassed you.
07:55It's not even about embarrassment.
07:58Look, we live enough of our lives on show in this pub.
08:01And if you don't want Will to find out...
08:02Like I said, I'll just say that you had an argument with her.
08:05Oh, great, so then it's my fault.
08:07All right, well, I'll say we both had an argument with her then.
08:10The main thing is, that's all Will needs to know.
08:14Yo, bro.
08:15Shall I get one in?
08:16No, I'm all right, thanks, mate.
08:17I just need a word with me brother.
08:19What do you want?
08:20Your mum's still next door.
08:21That's not my problem anymore.
08:23She's really caught up about everything.
08:25Did you not hear what I just said?
08:26Yeah, but I've also heard her side of things, and I think you should hear her out.
08:30I think we should probably just let the dust settle a bit first.
08:33No, no, in my experience, you know, you let things go, they only get worse, especially where family is concerned.
08:38This is none of your business, Steve, and she had no right spilling her guts to you anyway.
08:42Yeah, well, I'm sorry, but, you know, I am kind of involved, because like it or not, we are family.
08:47Well, I don't like it. I don't like it one bit.
08:49Everything I thought I knew's been turned upside down, and you, you think that's a reason to celebrate, do you?
08:54Well, is it nice? Now, every day you get a new brother.
08:56You're no brother of mine. You're nothing to me. Now, get out now.
08:59Right?
09:00Look, I'm only trying to solve things.
09:01Steve, get out of my pub before you regret it, mate.
09:04Ben?
09:04The studio.
09:06I don't think I'll lose you, Tom.
09:07Mate, get out!
09:08No!
09:09Do one!
09:10Excuse me, I think I've just ordered my hot pot.
09:12Hot pot's off, Dev.
09:14Out!
09:14The lot of yous, do one!
09:16Out!
09:34I shall have to insist that you remain stationary during our game.
09:40Sorry.
09:42I don't know if you're aware of the Korchnoi-Karpov controversy in 1978?
09:49No.
09:51No.
09:51During game 14 of the World Championship match, Korchnoi complained that Karpov was excessively
10:01and deliberately swinging in his chair, so as to put him off.
10:07Thus, Karpov was forbidden from spinning in his chair.
10:12Really?
10:12Yeah.
10:13Yeah.
10:14Yeah.
10:14And it's not the first chair-based chess controversy.
10:19In the 1972 World Championship, Bobby Fisher was so dissatisfied with the chairs provided
10:27that he eventually had one flown over specially to Iceland from New York.
10:33Ah.
10:35Ah.
10:35Apologies.
10:37I have to take this.
10:41Hello?
10:43Well, the instructions are on the counter.
10:47D-downstairs.
10:48Yes.
10:48Well, I assure you they were there.
10:52Off the top of my...
10:55Look, look.
10:56I shall pop back.
10:57Oh.
10:57Yes.
10:58Bye-bye-bye.
11:00I'm sorry.
11:02I...
11:03I, er...
11:03That's a builder at my flat.
11:04I have to go back and confirm something with them.
11:08Okay.
11:09Yes.
11:10But I shall return presently.
11:16But, er, in the meantime, er, you, er, spin to your heart's content.
11:36We'll be home in a minute.
11:39He'll know there's something up if the doors are locked.
11:41Yeah.
11:42He'll find out the truth soon enough, anyway.
11:45It was stupid of me to think I could keep it from him.
11:48You were just trying to protect him.
11:50Who can blame you after what's gone on lately?
11:52I just...
11:54I just feel like I'm failing at everything, babe.
11:58Father, son, Steve McDonald's brother.
12:02And sure, where's the time for me and you in all of this, huh?
12:05I feel like I'm failing as a partner as well.
12:07Right, enough now.
12:08Self-pity doesn't suit you.
12:10You're not failing at anything.
12:13You're doing your best, love.
12:14Which is all anybody can do.
12:17And I'll tell you something else.
12:19It's good enough for me.
12:21Yeah?
12:21More than good enough.
12:24Come here.
12:32Are you going to make a move?
12:35Sorry, I...
12:36I was just thinking about stuff.
12:39You do seem somewhat unsettled.
12:44Yeah.
12:46A lot of weird stuff's been going on.
12:48What kind of weird stuff?
12:54Doesn't matter.
12:56Everything's just a big stress at the moment.
13:00You remind me of me at your age.
13:04I was in a constant state of anxiety.
13:08As I told you, I never really lived up to my parents' expectations.
13:16What's a shame?
13:18Because I viewed the world somewhat differently.
13:23As you do.
13:26Yeah.
13:30So, I suppose it is only natural that you might fear that your own father could harbour that same disappointment.
13:45Or you might feel a certain insecurity, given the way that you arrived in his life.
13:53Do you think he might not have wanted me?
13:54I never said that.
13:57And I'm sure he will do his duty by you.
14:01Whatever problems you may have.
14:05Or difficulties you might present.
14:08I don't want to be your duty.
14:11Do you think he'd sooner I wasn't here?
14:14Not now.
14:15He has responsibility for you.
14:17Well, that doesn't mean he would have wanted me.
14:20I think we should begin.
14:28Well, there's no getting away from you at the minute, is there?
14:31Remind me to check under the bed when we get undressed tonight.
14:34Well, I say I've got better things to waste my time on than you, but I'm not sure.
14:38What's that supposed to mean?
14:39Well, you tell me.
14:41Have you, um...
14:42You finished my gear yet, by the way?
14:44I'll have to start charging you.
14:45Fingers crossed.
14:46I might be able to say the same to you.
14:49Kit, have you actually got any proof that he's done something wrong?
14:52Otherwise, this is just harassment.
14:54Well, Theo was murdered.
14:55Despite what you might read in the papers, Maria, not everybody's capable of doing that.
15:00So when I find someone who I think is, someone who's got a motive, someone local,
15:05I need a good reason to stop looking at them.
15:07Well, I've also got an alibi.
15:10If you say so.
15:12Honestly, I think you've been watching too much CSI.
15:15Come on.
15:20I've never considered Dad might not want me in his life.
15:25Oh, sorry.
15:25I tend to follow logic wherever it may lead.
15:32I apologise for any insensitivity.
15:36No.
15:37No, you just tell them the truth.
15:40Because you're my friend.
15:41I am, indeed.
15:44And will only ever want the best outcome for you.
15:48And that certainly doesn't include Nick abandoning you.
15:52So we must work hard to prevent that.
15:56Yes.
15:58Yeah.
15:59We must.
16:06You all right, Sam?
16:08Yeah.
16:10Yeah.
16:11I really appreciate you taking the time to talk to me like this.
16:14Your advice really means a lot.
16:16I'd make a far better counsellor if builders weren't calling me away.
16:22But from now on, you have my full and undivided attention.
16:29Shall we start?
16:35No.
16:37You all right?
16:38Yeah.
16:40Absolutely fine.
16:42I've not had a fall or broken a hip or been telephone scanned.
16:47I've not even had lunch at a garden centre.
16:49Yeah.
16:50So for an olden.
16:51I'm doing ever so well.
16:53I was only trying to help before, you know.
16:55Yeah.
16:56Because I'm totally incapable.
16:58Oh, they seem to be doing fine to me.
17:01Yeah.
17:02Pleased for you.
17:06Steve?
17:08What?
17:09He's thrown you out.
17:10He didn't put his hands on you, did he?
17:15Bertie, darling, don't go running off.
17:17It's all right.
17:17I'll get them.
17:18Multitasking, eh?
17:19Gets harder as you get older, doesn't it?
17:22Come on, you two.
17:24Sorry, Steve.
17:25What did you say?
17:26Come back.
17:27Swings are this way.
17:28We're bored of the swings.
17:31Right.
17:31Well, I'll tell you what's not boring.
17:34Look what I've got.
17:36Yeah, you can share these.
17:38But eat them quick, yeah?
17:40Don't tell the wicked witch.
17:41She'll only take them off.
17:42Yeah, look what if you gave them what I thought.
17:45Oh.
17:48Look, Roy, we appreciate you taking the time.
17:51Well, I would say it was my pleasure, but I can't help sharing your concerns.
17:57In what way?
17:58Well, er, Sam was extremely agitated before he left.
18:04He certainly wasn't on his game.
18:07And he seems to believe that someone at school has put some kind of tracking device in his bag.
18:16Tracking device?
18:17Yeah, well, so he believes.
18:19I hadn't realised these things are freely available.
18:22Well, as if he's not got enough to contend with.
18:24Right, we're going to have to go down to the school.
18:25No, no, no.
18:26Talk to him.
18:26Erm.
18:28I put the tracker in his bag.
18:29What?
18:29I wanted to make sure he was safe.
18:31He said he wasn't going to get a new phone, so I thought we'd better track him.
18:34I don't know if he got lost or got into trouble.
18:36Well, I wish you'd have talked to me first.
18:38Because I would have told you that I couldn't think of anything more likely to make him paranoid.
18:42Well, it certainly seems to have had that effect.
18:58I don't understand why everyone's got it in for me.
19:02It's our fate, Sam.
19:05While our intellect might win us a degree of admiration, more often than not it will prompt suspicion.
19:15Even hatred.
19:18But why?
19:19Because people feel threatened.
19:22And will use brute force to deal with that threat if necessary.
19:27And that's what they want to do to me?
19:30As with myself, your enemies will do all they can to thwart your ambitions.
19:41And there's no way we can stop them?
19:43I never said that.
19:46I'm still here.
19:48I'm still here because I learnt the value of identifying my foes.
19:57Taking pre-emptive steps.
20:03I never knew you had this side to you.
20:06Well, that's because I must keep it hidden.
20:11I reveal it to you.
20:14Because you face the very same prejudices and attacks that I have endured.
20:22But I want to help you, Sam.
20:26Face down those bullies and the oppressors who wish you harm.
20:32But how?
20:34By trusting no one.
20:40You're vulnerable, Sam.
20:46You're by no means safe.
20:51You must be guided by me as someone who has walked that treacherous path before you.
21:01You may have to fly in the face of your gentle nature.
21:07As I did mine.
21:11The question is,
21:13are you prepared for that?
21:18To follow my instructions
21:20to the letter?
21:26Yes.
21:29Yes, I am.
21:34I don't have any choice.
21:36Yes.
21:45I don't have any choice.
22:01I don't have any choice.
22:03I don't have any choice.
22:03I don't have any choice.
22:04Yes, I am.
22:07I have a choice.
22:08So, see you later.
22:08Not yet.
22:08I am.
