00:04:54Nowhere.
00:04:55Wrong. You're coming with me.
00:04:57You two, get back on that corner,
00:04:59or I'll tell Jake you've been leaving early again.
00:05:03Good girl.
00:05:16I don't like this.
00:05:18Listen, you'll be fine.
00:05:20Be nice.
00:05:21Be good.
00:05:23And have fun.
00:05:25Come on.
00:05:39You're looking for a good time.
00:05:41Come on.
00:05:45Are you two taking the piss?
00:05:48You know what you're fucking with?
00:05:49Huh?
00:05:50Looks to me like one little torture boy in a skank.
00:05:53See you around here again.
00:05:55Help for you.
00:05:57What the fuck are you going to do, huh?
00:05:59Jake, just don't worry about this.
00:06:01Jake can suck my...
00:06:08What's that?
00:06:11What's that?
00:06:21What the fuck with us?
00:06:24Why?
00:06:24Oh my...
00:06:26Oh god no!
00:06:28Where are you?
00:06:29No.
00:06:33No.
00:06:35No!
00:06:39No!
00:06:43No!
00:06:44No!
00:06:51No!
00:06:52No!
00:06:54No!
00:06:55No!
00:06:58Another night, another horrific crime scene.
00:07:01Three bodies believed to be the latest victims of Dr Plague
00:07:04were discovered just a few hundred metres from here
00:07:07in the early hours of this morning.
00:07:09The police insist the murders are gang-related,
00:07:12dismissing claims of a serial killer.
00:07:14However, sources closest to the investigation
00:07:17suggest the unusual staging of the bodies,
00:07:19moved and deliberately placed,
00:07:21points to something more than a typical gang dispute.
00:07:24Detective Verney, there is a body over here
00:07:27and these two bodies are from rival gangs.
00:07:30Have you seen the bodies?
00:07:31No, sir.
00:07:32Let's have a look, eh?
00:07:36Jesus.
00:07:38Jesus.
00:07:38It's all in one piece this time, eh?
00:07:42You know, it's me.
00:07:43The doctor's doing us all a favour.
00:07:45Certainly clearing out the rubbish, that's for sure.
00:07:47Wait, are we sure this is not just some gang rivalry thing?
00:07:50What do you reckon?
00:07:51Torture boys, grave diggers, bloods?
00:07:54Torture boys over there, grave diggers here.
00:07:57This is the ninth one they've lost so far.
00:07:59I'm going to fuck a sock on.
00:08:02I don't know.
00:08:05Yep.
00:08:06Well, I'm at work, aren't I?
00:08:09Yes.
00:08:10Have you tried his mobile?
00:08:13All right.
00:08:14Look, I can't deal with it now.
00:08:15Do it.
00:08:15Just, I'll be, I'll get on it later.
00:08:17Yeah.
00:08:21No cameras again, right?
00:08:22Yucky.
00:08:28You really want to hit the ground running, Deceptive?
00:08:30Yes, sir.
00:08:31You get yourself back to the station, right?
00:08:33Get on the phone, you check out every camera that you can find.
00:08:36Ours, plus the private ones as well.
00:08:38You never know, we might get lucky.
00:08:39All I know at the moment is, three months in, we've got 25 dead, and six people are still missing,
00:08:44right?
00:08:45Probably abducted.
00:08:46Get on it.
00:08:47Yes, sir.
00:08:48That's what I don't understand is, why is he killing some of them and not the rest?
00:08:54That's what we're trying to find out, isn't it?
00:08:55Yes, sir.
00:08:57Sam.
00:08:57Yes, sir.
00:08:59Don't call me, sir.
00:09:00No, sir.
00:09:08You best find out who this no place is soon, otherwise we're going to start taking our own
00:09:12actions, if you know what I mean.
00:09:14And you don't want that.
00:09:17Yeah, all right, I want a good job.
00:09:44No chair.
00:09:45Detective.
00:09:46You all right?
00:09:48Hmm.
00:09:50Jutz wasn't alone last night.
00:09:51He's with our friend Sarah.
00:09:54Sarah?
00:09:54Sarah Stringer.
00:09:56We haven't seen her since you left with him last night.
00:09:59You sure about her?
00:10:00Hmm, 100%.
00:10:02All right.
00:10:05You take care of yourself, you all right?
00:10:07Hmm.
00:10:23What is up, Plague Nation?
00:10:25So today we are going to be talking about our killer's weapon of choice.
00:10:29And you know, the cops, they are useless.
00:10:33Because let's be honest here, Dr. Plague, he is making history.
00:10:45Still nothing?
00:10:46I'm afraid not.
00:10:48The only time she does say anything is when she's dreaming, and even then it's just screams.
00:10:52Surprised by watching.
00:10:54Indeed.
00:10:55Did she ever use the charcoal or some paper I've brought in last time?
00:10:59No, it's been nothing.
00:11:03She can't talk.
00:11:04She can draw.
00:11:10Mary?
00:11:12Do you have a visitor?
00:11:15Good to see you, Mary.
00:11:18Listen to me.
00:11:20I need your help.
00:11:23The man that hurt you,
00:11:25that attacked you,
00:11:27he's killed the kid.
00:11:30You're the only person that's ever seen it.
00:11:35If there's anything you can tell me about the night you were attacked,
00:11:40I need your help.
00:11:42We can't let this happen to someone else.
00:11:47If there's anything you can remember about the night you were attacked,
00:11:51anything at all.
00:11:54Did you hear his voice?
00:11:55What did he sound like?
00:11:56Anything at all.
00:11:57You just tell Dr. Colt.
00:12:00And she'll call me.
00:12:02Anytime of the night or day.
00:12:05Alright?
00:12:08Okay.
00:12:18No.
00:12:19Repent.
00:12:21What did she say?
00:12:24She said something.
00:12:27Repent.
00:12:28Mary.
00:12:31What was it?
00:12:32Mary, what was it?
00:12:33Repent.
00:12:33Here, go.
00:12:34Repent.
00:12:36Or die.
00:12:39Mary, let him go.
00:12:58I'm so sorry, Detective.
00:12:59If that girl says anything,
00:13:01anything at all,
00:13:02I'm your first call.
00:13:10Sam.
00:13:11Yeah, tell me something good.
00:13:13You were right.
00:13:14The torture boy's vixen wasn't alone last night.
00:13:17There was another girl.
00:13:19Carry on checking the cameras on the surrounding area.
00:13:21Yeah, why didn't that search to about a mile?
00:13:23We've got to find out how he's getting in and out, alright?
00:13:26Well, I don't know, do I?
00:13:28He's not a fucking ghost, is he?
00:13:30Huh?
00:13:30Just find him.
00:13:32Yeah.
00:13:42I don't know.
00:14:10Listen, there's an opening for you.
00:14:12What do you got back there?
00:14:14Go on.
00:14:18Listen, you said you was in.
00:14:19This is in?
00:14:21It's not that, it's, uh...
00:14:23Well, what then?
00:14:25What, you worried about the plague?
00:14:28Don't worry about that,
00:14:29we've got that covered.
00:14:31Shit, let's...
00:14:36Letting it out.
00:14:37Is it that obvious?
00:14:39Yes,
00:14:40you might as well have a massive siren
00:14:42on your head.
00:14:43Get in the car.
00:14:44Take in your own.
00:14:45Nah, I'm alright.
00:14:47I'm not asking you.
00:14:48Dad, you can't make me come with you.
00:14:55This yours?
00:14:58That's not mine.
00:14:59I don't see anyone else here.
00:15:02You know, I could take you in for less than that, didn't you?
00:15:05You wouldn't do that.
00:15:07No, I wouldn't.
00:15:08Because I'm taking you home.
00:15:20No, I don't want you seeing them anymore.
00:15:23Them are mates, Tad.
00:15:25No, no, they're not.
00:15:27Guys like that don't have mates.
00:15:28Whatever.
00:15:31Did they tell you what happened last night?
00:15:33Hmm?
00:15:34What plague did to two of them all?
00:15:36Yes.
00:15:37Of course, everyone knows.
00:15:39But don't worry, we're taking care of it.
00:15:42What's that supposed to mean?
00:15:44What's that supposed to mean?
00:15:45You're taking care of it.
00:15:46Hang on a minute.
00:15:47I ain't finished with you.
00:15:48Look, Mum's got dinner ready.
00:15:49And I'm starving.
00:15:59Come on, mate.
00:16:00You alright?
00:16:05Alright?
00:16:07He's lame.
00:16:08Yeah, I know, I'm sorry.
00:16:10I found him down by Smith's.
00:16:12God, really?
00:16:13Yeah.
00:16:14That's where all the smack heads hang out.
00:16:15What's he doing down there?
00:16:16Yeah.
00:16:16Oh, he just had a bag of grass.
00:16:18You know, all kids do it.
00:16:19Just a bag of grass.
00:16:20Oh, my...
00:16:20This is getting out of hand.
00:16:21You've got to do something about this.
00:16:23Yeah, I am.
00:16:23You are?
00:16:24Yeah, I'm talking to him.
00:16:25Well, that's clearly not enough, is it?
00:16:28He needs a proper dad.
00:16:29Oh, come on.
00:16:30We're not going there again, are we?
00:16:32I'd still be here if it weren't for you.
00:16:34No.
00:16:34No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:16:36It was, though.
00:16:36You cannot blame this on me.
00:16:37Look, I'd still be here, wouldn't I?
00:16:38If you'd managed to keep it in your pants, then maybe I wouldn't have had to kick you
00:16:41out.
00:16:41I told you, it's just the once.
00:16:43Just the once.
00:16:44That's all.
00:16:45Oh, yeah, once.
00:16:45One time, John.
00:16:46That's the truth.
00:16:47You wouldn't expect me to believe that.
00:16:49I've got to take this.
00:16:50Oh, God, here we go again.
00:16:51You can't even talk to the mother of your only child about your son's wealth.
00:16:54I'll get rid of them.
00:16:55Hang on a minute.
00:16:55Now, do you know what, John?
00:16:56Take your precious call.
00:16:57Just do me a favour and take an interest in his life before it's too late.
00:17:02Go on.
00:17:04This better be important.
00:17:21Oh.
00:17:59Oh, no.
00:18:01Oh, no.
00:18:14Oh, no.
00:18:28Oh, no, no.
00:18:45You're under arrest!
00:18:47Ah!
00:18:48The brain burn!
00:18:51The brain burn!
00:18:54What are you two?
00:18:55Yeah, when a junk's on you, are they?
00:18:57You're nicked!
00:18:58The brain burn!
00:18:59What are you two?
00:19:01You fucking cussing!
00:19:03What?
00:19:03You bastard!
00:19:05I'm a policeman! Get out!
00:19:07The fucking crates!
00:19:08I'm gonna kill you man for battery and wrongful arrest!
00:19:11You fascist fuck!
00:19:12Last night, the investigation took another shocking turn.
00:19:17Newly surfaced footage appears to show Detective Inspector John Verney
00:19:21in a violent altercation with a popular YouTuber.
00:19:24The clip has intensified criticism of the police,
00:19:28fuelling concerns that law enforcement is losing its grip.
00:19:31Protests have erupted across the city,
00:19:34driven by fears that authorities can no longer contain the escalating violence.
00:19:38Some see Verney's actions are those of a man pushed to his limits.
00:19:42While others believe they expose deeper issues within the police service.
00:19:46Chief Inspector Parker is expected to make a statement later tonight.
00:19:51But it's not just answers the public want.
00:19:53It's decisive leadership.
00:19:55It's gone viral.
00:19:56Basically, everybody's seen you beat the crap out of that kid.
00:20:04It's gone viral.
00:20:04It's gone viral.
00:20:04Oh my goodness.
00:20:04Oh my goodness.
00:20:08Detective Jones.
00:20:10Yes sir, he's here.
00:20:11He's here with me now sir.
00:20:13Okay sir.
00:20:14Go for once to chat.
00:20:16Come on then.
00:20:18On your own.
00:20:25Ah, in these dresses Dr. Blair, you can buy the costume online now.
00:20:30Well why's that John?
00:20:31Well they're cashing in aren't they?
00:20:33Cashing in?
00:20:34Because the public have bought into this ridiculous idea that there is this Jack the Ripper like maniac on the
00:20:39loose.
00:20:39Yeah, and they'd be right.
00:20:41Based on what?
00:20:42A few grainy images of someone wearing a mask?
00:20:44The theories of a few internet wackos?
00:20:47No, no, no.
00:20:48That footage is real.
00:20:50We had it authenticated.
00:20:51Do you know that?
00:20:51All the kidding so far are on gang members.
00:20:54Or those affiliated with them in some way.
00:20:56This is a gang matter.
00:20:57No, no, no.
00:20:58Gangs don't conduct.
00:20:59Right, I mean where are they going to take them?
00:21:01All I know is that we've got six or seven people connected with these murders that are still missing.
00:21:05It's all circumstantial.
00:21:07Not everything is a conspiracy job.
00:21:09I know that.
00:21:10I'm not saying it is.
00:21:11I just want to find them before it's too late.
00:21:14Look, I'll be honest with you.
00:21:15I just got off the phone with the super.
00:21:18And she has suggested it'd be a good idea to get a fresh pair of eyes on all of this.
00:21:25So, have you stood down?
00:21:26No, not yet.
00:21:28We agreed you can work till the end of this month.
00:21:30But if sufficient progress isn't made by then,
00:21:32we're going to bring in someone else to lead the task force.
00:21:35Oh, this is ridiculous.
00:21:37I hear you saw Mary Woodall.
00:21:40I hear she gave you the job.
00:21:42Who told you that?
00:21:44I've got to get this.
00:21:45The gangs.
00:21:46The solution to everything is with the gangs.
00:21:49Concentrate on the gangs.
00:21:50Never mind the bogeyman.
00:21:53Hello?
00:22:21Who was?
00:22:23That's the drug.
00:22:23When did the gangs happen,
00:22:24It's not chocolately.
00:22:24So, for you,
00:22:24Are you killing and history probably having to come out?
00:22:25I don't want to be with the gangs.
00:22:25It means it's not a dog.
00:22:25I take away because a Aussie...
00:22:25It means it's a visual decibilities.
00:22:25And it's a very beautiful child
00:22:25As in a group,
00:22:25It's aelectron powers that are very innovative educate.
00:22:28You all look for the crack joint,
00:22:29You watch it,
00:22:53Hey mate, hello, you alright, I'm alright, good, um, look, how do you fancy going to
00:22:59the cinema tomorrow, right, you know, I can meet you after work, you can choose a movie.
00:23:05Yeah, yeah sure, that sounds good.
00:23:07Great, um, shall we say six o'clock, how does that sound?
00:23:10Six is good.
00:23:11Good, alright, I'll see you there, and, uh, mate, uh, choose something we both like, eh?
00:23:17Yeah.
00:23:18Alright, good, see you later.
00:23:21Cheers, Dad.
00:23:33Good, this is…
00:23:36Good, this is…
00:23:53I don't know.
00:24:43I don't know.
00:24:53I don't know.
00:24:54I don't know.
00:24:56I don't know.
00:24:57I don't know.
00:24:59Hello.
00:25:02Fuck.
00:25:06What's going on?
00:25:08Sam?
00:25:09I wanted to talk to you.
00:25:11Off the record.
00:25:13Yeah, sure, boss, but shouldn't we be heading on over to the junkyard crime scene?
00:25:17We can talk in the car.
00:25:18Are you familiar with the Whitechapel murders?
00:25:21Jack the Ripper?
00:25:22Yeah.
00:25:23Yeah, I mean, everyone's heard of him, right?
00:25:25Yeah, you know, I've been doing some reading.
00:25:28Similarities are obvious when you look at it.
00:25:31Right, the choice of victims, the location, the ferocity of the attacks, even the messaging that's left behind.
00:25:38Okay, so why the secrecy, though?
00:25:40Why are we on the roof?
00:25:41Well, they say Jack was never caught because he had friends in high places.
00:25:45Like he was connected to aristocracy.
00:25:48Like a secret society.
00:25:51They say that he even had his claws into the mirror.
00:25:55Wait, so you think our killer's got an accomplice on the job?
00:25:58No.
00:25:59Plague only attacks where there's no camera coverage, right?
00:26:02So either you're really lucky or he's got someone on the inside.
00:26:08Okay, so what now?
00:26:10He's got to leave a trail somewhere.
00:26:12And when he does, you jump on it.
00:26:14You get yourself over to the emergency.
00:26:17And when you're done there, right, you check every piece of CCTV that you've got.
00:26:22Every single frame you find anything, you come to me.
00:26:25No one else.
00:26:27Understood?
00:26:29Someone's got to know who he is.
00:26:35Wait, are you not coming over to the crime scene?
00:26:37I've got something I need to do.
00:26:40So you're a professor of medieval history and religious symbolism, right?
00:26:45Professor Emeritus.
00:26:47I was wondering if you could help me identify this.
00:26:58Do you recognize it?
00:27:00Yeah, that looks like some kind of flame.
00:27:04Well, it's a piece of evidence.
00:27:06An ongoing inquiry at the moment.
00:27:08Fire is one of the base elements.
00:27:11But fire can also be a symbol of cleansing, of purging and renewal.
00:27:17It's a force of truth, a light in the darkness.
00:27:21More darkness than light recently.
00:27:25Without fire, we'd be dead inside and out.
00:27:30Did you say you got this?
00:27:31I did.
00:27:33Hmm.
00:27:35I have an idea.
00:27:38What is up, Plague Nation?
00:27:40It's your boy, Eric, with big news, no, huge news about tomorrow's show.
00:27:47Live, 8pm, I'm going to be joined by Jake Tortelli.
00:27:52A man whose friends, family, associates have all been brutally and viciously killed by none
00:27:59other than Dr. Plague.
00:28:02Jake wants to go on the record.
00:28:04Raw, unfiltered, with a personal message to the killer himself.
00:28:09So that's right, Plague.
00:28:11If you're watching, and I know you are, you do not want to miss this.
00:28:21I've seen it.
00:28:23It's had half a million views already.
00:28:25Don't give me left nut for that sort of coverage.
00:28:27It's not journalism, it's clickbait.
00:28:29Nothing more than self-promotion and narcissism.
00:28:32Call it what you want.
00:28:33This little twerk keeps getting the jump on us.
00:28:35And I'm not having it.
00:28:40See, we've got ourselves a modern-day Jack the Ripper.
00:28:44He's out there cutting up kids with impunity, but what, no one knows his identity?
00:28:49No, I don't buy it.
00:28:51So what are you suggesting?
00:28:52Some kind of conspiracy?
00:28:53Yeah, damn right I am.
00:28:54Well, we're living in an age of fake news and cover-ups.
00:28:58But that's not us.
00:29:00We're in the truth business.
00:29:02Or at least we were the last time I looked.
00:29:04See, good old-fashioned print journalism can still make a difference.
00:29:10We can make a difference.
00:29:12I'm not saying you're wrong.
00:29:14I'm not wrong.
00:29:15But if you are, and it's a big if, what then?
00:29:19We're going to look like fools if we're on the wrong side of this story.
00:29:22Well, let me worry about that.
00:29:25You, uh, know who the lead investigator is, don't you?
00:29:29Yes.
00:29:30A dinosaur who still thinks he's in the Sweeney.
00:29:33Yeah, well, John Verney's one of their best detectives.
00:29:37So if the victims aren't important, the killer must be.
00:29:43So what do you want me to do?
00:29:45Well, you and Verney have history, don't you?
00:29:50I'm flutter your eyelashes, whisper sweet nothings.
00:29:55Do I really need to spell it out?
00:29:58You want me to whore myself?
00:30:00I think you'll find it's called being sex-positive these days.
00:30:04Just give me a quote.
00:30:06Something, anything, I've got put on the front page.
00:30:12Go on then.
00:30:14The clock's ticking.
00:30:17Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock.
00:30:33Right.
00:30:36And, um, upload...
00:30:39Oh, sorry.
00:30:42It seems that your symbol
00:30:45belonged to a secret society
00:30:47called the Brethren of the Flame.
00:30:49The Brethren believed
00:30:50that the pandemic
00:30:52was divine wrath
00:30:54and judgment
00:30:56upon a sinful society.
00:31:00Among their number
00:31:01was a faction
00:31:03who would go out
00:31:05disguised as plague doctors
00:31:08to kill
00:31:09those they deemed corrupt
00:31:11and criminal
00:31:13and who refused to repent.
00:31:16Plague doctors.
00:31:17What about...
00:31:20a revival?
00:31:22Is it safe to assume
00:31:23that your visit
00:31:24is somehow connected
00:31:25with the killings
00:31:26that are happening
00:31:27in East London?
00:31:28Does it say anything
00:31:29about the Brethren
00:31:31abducting people?
00:31:33No.
00:31:34I'm very not.
00:31:36Could you look into that for me?
00:31:37I'm very, very busy.
00:31:40Now,
00:31:40if you can give me
00:31:41any sort of help,
00:31:43we could save lives.
00:31:45I don't think I can refuse,
00:31:47can I?
00:31:48I'd appreciate
00:31:49if you could keep
00:31:50our conversation
00:31:51just under wraps.
00:31:52You know,
00:31:52I don't want anything
00:31:53getting out
00:31:54and provoking it.
00:31:57Oh, yeah.
00:31:59And, uh,
00:31:59look,
00:32:00here's my card.
00:32:02Call me
00:32:02if you think
00:32:04of anything.
00:32:05Okay?
00:32:06I'll see it myself, Val.
00:32:08Right.
00:32:14Hello, John.
00:32:16It's Francesca.
00:32:18Yeah, I know.
00:32:19It's been a long time.
00:32:21Too long.
00:32:23I was thinking
00:32:24maybe we can get together.
00:32:27I ran through
00:32:28the other disappearances
00:32:29and in all instances
00:32:30there's no sign of plague
00:32:32or where he takes them.
00:32:34It's like
00:32:34they just disappear.
00:32:36But we know all this, right?
00:32:37But I think
00:32:38I found something.
00:32:39You see,
00:32:40there's this theory
00:32:41that during his killing spree,
00:32:42the Ripper
00:32:42would use the city's
00:32:43old utility tunnels
00:32:44to evade capture.
00:32:45That theory later
00:32:46gave birth to those
00:32:47boogeyman-like tales
00:32:48you hear today
00:32:48that he's still down there
00:32:49lurking,
00:32:50waiting one day
00:32:50to re-emerge.
00:32:52Now this map here
00:32:53dates back to
00:32:54the late 19th century
00:32:55when those tunnels
00:32:55were still in use.
00:32:56Yeah.
00:32:57I managed to match
00:32:57all the crime scenes
00:32:58of all the plague murders
00:32:59and disappearances
00:33:00with all the CCTV blind spots.
00:33:03And what about this stuff?
00:33:04The green?
00:33:05What's that mean?
00:33:06Those are all
00:33:07the old utility tunnel openings
00:33:08and they were used
00:33:09to transport
00:33:09the sick and dying
00:33:10out of London
00:33:11during the bubonic plague
00:33:12by plague doctors.
00:33:14But I think
00:33:15this is how plague
00:33:16is escaping
00:33:17and where he's taking
00:33:17those hip ducks.
00:33:19Shit.
00:33:21Should we go tell the gov?
00:33:23No,
00:33:24just keep it
00:33:24between ourselves
00:33:25for a while.
00:33:26I think we need
00:33:26something a little bit
00:33:27more concrete
00:33:28before we'll take
00:33:28the sea on there.
00:33:30Let's go find something then.
00:33:31Yeah.
00:33:35Hello?
00:33:38When?
00:33:40You're joking.
00:33:41Alright,
00:33:42I'm on my way.
00:33:43Everything okay?
00:33:45You carry on doing that.
00:33:46I've got to go
00:33:47out of St. Mary's.
00:33:54I'm sorry,
00:33:54detective.
00:33:55So what happened?
00:33:57She cut off
00:33:58her own tongue
00:33:58and burnt her death.
00:34:00She must have had
00:34:00a psychotic episode
00:34:01during the night.
00:34:02There was nothing
00:34:03we could do.
00:34:10She was dead
00:34:11when we found her.
00:34:16What do you mean
00:34:17she cut her own tongue off?
00:34:19How?
00:34:20We found some scissors
00:34:21in her room.
00:34:28How did she get
00:34:29on with a pair of scissors?
00:34:33It's unfortunate
00:34:33but sometimes
00:34:34the patients
00:34:34hide things from us.
00:34:36things that can
00:34:37cause them danger.
00:34:54Goodbye, detective.
00:35:12Hello, mate.
00:35:13What's up?
00:35:20No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:35:22I just didn't think
00:35:23it mattered,
00:35:23that's all.
00:35:28Yeah, no.
00:35:29Look,
00:35:29you're right.
00:35:30I should have told you,
00:35:31Jake.
00:35:32I'm sorry.
00:35:38What?
00:35:43I don't know.
00:35:44I don't know.
00:35:45I don't have it.
00:35:51My dad,
00:35:51my dad,
00:35:54my dad,
00:35:55he took it.
00:35:56He found it
00:35:56and he took it.
00:35:58Look,
00:35:58I'm sorry, Jake.
00:35:59I promise
00:36:00I'll make it up to you.
00:36:01I promise.
00:36:04Jake?
00:36:06Jake?
00:36:14I don't know.
00:36:50Sorry I'm late.
00:36:52No, it's fine.
00:36:54Oh, you remembered.
00:36:55Cheers.
00:36:57Is everything alright?
00:37:00Off the record?
00:37:01Not really.
00:37:03Our only living witness to a plague attack has just died.
00:37:07What happened?
00:37:10Gross negligence, if you ask me.
00:37:15Sorry.
00:37:16Alright.
00:37:17I'm all yours.
00:37:22What's the position of the Chief Inspector on this?
00:37:26He thinks it's all game related.
00:37:28Really?
00:37:29From what you've described of the murders, it's so obviously ideologically driven.
00:37:33What's his big brain take on that?
00:37:36He thinks all the missing are related to the murders.
00:37:38I mean, he thinks all suspects.
00:37:42Well, you know what I'm going to say.
00:37:44Well, you should.
00:37:45He's an idiot.
00:37:46You should have that job, or better.
00:37:49Not that paper pushing path of least resistance.
00:37:53I've got too many black marks against me.
00:37:55Really?
00:37:55I find that hard to believe.
00:38:13Yeah.
00:38:15I'm on my way.
00:38:19I'm on my way.
00:38:20Any other breakthroughs?
00:38:21Off the record?
00:38:23Off the record?
00:38:25Yeah, I think we might have.
00:38:28We think the plague is using this whole system of utility tunnels to escape from the scene of the crime.
00:38:35Have you taken that to the Chief?
00:38:36No.
00:38:38I'm not really skating on thin ice.
00:38:40When I go to the old man, I've got to take more than just a hunch.
00:38:44I heard about the divorce.
00:38:47Yeah, well it happens.
00:38:49Is that anything to do with us?
00:38:51No.
00:38:53Well, maybe.
00:38:55Did your wife find out?
00:38:58She found out I was seeing someone.
00:39:01She didn't know it was you.
00:39:03Sorry.
00:39:07What about you?
00:39:09You disappeared quickly, didn't you?
00:39:11Didn't even say goodbye.
00:39:13Yeah, why do you think?
00:39:15I'm just sick of all the lies.
00:39:21Do you want to get out then?
00:39:37Don't be taking that shit on me. I don't want to look like a fucking Satsuma.
00:39:41I know what I'm doing.
00:39:42She did makeup in college, you know.
00:39:44She's got certificates and everything.
00:39:45And who the fuck asked you?
00:39:47I was just saying.
00:39:49Yeah, well don't. You can fuck off.
00:39:52I ain't even finished your hair yet.
00:39:53Yeah, well you're done. Fuck off.
00:39:56Fuck this. I'll be in the hot tub.
00:40:02Fucking mouth on that.
00:40:04Mate, the chat's blowing up for real.
00:40:07Listen to this.
00:40:09Is this going fucking viral or what?
00:40:11You're trending man.
00:40:12What's the difference?
00:40:14Well, trending is like when...
00:40:16Oh well, do you know what? I don't give a shit.
00:40:17Just fucking, just carry on doing what you're doing.
00:40:20What do you think of my shirt?
00:40:21Yeah, it's fine.
00:40:23Fine.
00:40:24Fucking fine.

00:40:28You look great.

00:45:43He was meant to be with you.

00:45:46I'm texting.
00:45:47Lying.
00:45:48Bastard!

00:45:52He was meant to be with you!
00:45:53He was meant to be with you!
00:45:56He was meant to be with you!
00:46:00No, no, no, he's not here.
00:46:01He's not here.
00:46:02It's all right.
00:46:03You come and take it.
00:46:04It's all right, he's not here.
00:46:05He's not here.
00:46:09Sir, sir, my son Liam.
00:46:11He was here tonight.
00:46:12I think Dr. Blake has taken him down into the tunnels.
00:46:15I got that.
00:46:16But what tunnels are you talking about?
00:46:17The other day I went to see Mary.
00:46:19She passed me this note.
00:46:20I think she's...
00:46:21This is the symbol that she saw the night that she was attacked.
00:46:25I had it checked out by an expert.
00:46:26He says it's the symbol of some ancient religious cult called the Reverend of the Night.
00:46:30I think all of these attacks, all of these Blake attacks, they're connected to this cult somehow.
00:46:35And that's why Mary was killed.
00:46:36Because she passed me the note.
00:46:38She was warning me.
00:46:40Murdered by who?
00:46:42Dr. Cole.
00:46:44Are you serious?
00:46:46No, have a look on the note.
00:46:47Look, look what Mary wrote.
00:46:48Look, she knew she was being watched by the Reverend.
00:46:51What has this to do with tunnels?
00:46:54Detective Jones, you saw this old utility tunnel system.
00:46:58I think Blake has been using it to organize his attacks and to escape with his victims.
00:47:02We were going to go down there, but I got this call from Mary.
00:47:05And where's Detective Jones now?
00:47:07I don't know.
00:47:08I got a couple of missed calls.
00:47:10I called him back.
00:47:11He wasn't there.
00:47:12But listen, we need uniforms down here.
00:47:13We need children.
00:47:14We need them now.
00:47:15We can't muck about-
00:47:15They are not calling SO-19 into tunnels because you believe in a medieval secret society.
00:47:21I need evidence.
00:47:22You've got it in your hand.
00:47:23But this, the scribblings of a dubious woman whom we can't even interview now because she's dead.
00:47:30For fuck's sake, my boy is missing.
00:47:32Don't you understand?
00:47:33Ancient girls, religious sellers, for God's sake John, listen to yourself.
00:47:38Look around.
00:47:39This is gang warfare.
00:47:41If you'd listened to me in the first place, and are focused on these fancy theories,
00:47:45this may not have happened.
00:47:47I'm sorry John, but I'm suspending you until further notice.
00:47:50Oh, bollocks.
00:47:52Hello?
00:47:53Ah, Detective, it's Professor Waltman.
00:47:55Yeah.
00:47:56Is there any good time?
00:47:57I have more information for you about the Reverend.
00:48:00Clay?
00:48:00What information?
00:48:01About the appraxions.
00:48:04What?
00:48:04Any charges against the Reverend once they would take their enemies out and torture them,
00:48:09and then you'll sacrifice them.
00:48:10Oh, Christ.

00:59:06A monster?
00:59:09Why are you doing this?
00:59:11You can let me go, I won't tell anyone, I promise.
00:59:16I am no monster.
00:59:24When all is said and done, I'm not that much different to you.
00:59:31No one is.
00:59:33It wasn't that long ago I was in your position.
00:59:38A lost soul.
00:59:43But I repented and everything became so clear.
00:59:49Clear.
00:59:50Clear.
00:59:51You're killing people.
00:59:53People!
00:59:54No.
00:59:56Not.
00:59:58People.
00:59:59I mean.
01:00:02We are cleansing this city.
01:00:07I am.
01:00:19He gave drugs to a sixteen-year-old girl named Lucy.
01:00:25She was bright. She was funny. And she had dreams of becoming a doctor. Just imagine
01:00:38the difference she could have made. And Lucifer was not his first victim either.
01:00:51Police failed those girls. And their parents. We won't.
01:01:22You see, the world just became a safer place.
01:01:33Oh, I said he did do those things.
01:01:36Oh, he did.
01:01:37Oh, he did.
01:01:39He did that I'm with you 100%, I promise. But the police, they're not all like that.
01:01:46My daddy's trying to make a difference.
01:01:48Always. I know all about the great John Verney. Cheat. Liar. Fuck. And he has just been dismissed.
01:02:11Why? Because of the choices he made. He seems to think the rules don't apply to him.
01:02:24Come on. Be honest. When did he ever put your needs or your mother's ahead of his own?
01:02:35You have such potential, Liam. You just need... Direction.
01:03:04Vernie's off the case. I heard. Well, you know why, don't you?
01:03:07The official word is internal restructuring. I think we both know that's crap.
01:03:12Oh, of course it's crap. The moment he's starting to get close to the truth, bang, he's out.
01:03:17Or coincidence. I don't think so. I am telling you, this is one big cover-up and it stinks to
01:03:23high oven.
01:03:23Jesus, you're starting to sound like those tinfoil hat loonies. You don't have a shred of evidence.
01:03:32Rob. Voila.
01:03:34What's that?
01:03:35It's a symbol of an ancient cult. The Brotherhood of the Flea. They're the ones behind it, please.
01:03:43I make mine from my old Flea Street days and there's someone on the inside.
01:03:46Someone who's had enough of the bloodshed, wants to get on the record.
01:03:52Eddie, I'm worried about you. Why don't you take a break?
01:03:57Be with the family.
01:03:59You haven't met my family, have you?
01:04:01No, we have a duty to our readers to expose criminality and corruption.
01:04:05Hell, we have a duty to every man, woman and mother of this country.
01:04:12Plus the fact, plague is the biggest story of my career and I intend to crack it wide open.
01:04:32That's Darius. We've been watching him for a while. He's on his way to that new club in town where
01:04:42he'll sell his product.
01:04:46MDMA, ketamine, whatever else he's cooked up.
01:04:51If we choose not to act, he will spread his poison and ruin more lives.
01:05:01Or, we can do something.
01:05:07Give him the choice. Repent or die.
01:05:12No. Some things there's no coming back from.
01:05:18You, Liam, you do have a choice.
01:05:27What will it be?
01:05:35Good boy.
01:05:42Oh, fuck. Fuck. Look here. That's the brand's worth of gear. Take the lock. Do it.
01:05:47No.
01:05:57Congratulations. You just made the world a safer place.
01:06:12Hello?
01:06:13Hello?
01:06:13Hello?
01:06:14Hello?
01:06:26Hello?
01:06:38Mr. Detective Verney.
01:06:41You look like shit.
01:06:43You got it.
01:06:47I hear you've been kicked off the job.
01:06:50It must be like losing a piece of salt.
01:06:53You got it or not?
01:06:57I got it.
01:07:01Let's get it on then.
01:07:04They made a real mess of you, didn't they?
01:07:07If you can't help me, I've got somebody else who can.
01:07:14That's it.
01:07:18No series, in the UK or Europe.
01:07:22Totally clean.
01:07:25Or even older for you.
01:07:29Single mag, fully loaded.
01:07:44I trust you.
01:07:47And I know where to find you.
01:07:52Can I have it?
01:07:57You take this.
01:08:00And you're heading down the road.
01:08:01And there's no coming back.
01:08:04Just give me the car.
01:08:05No, no.
01:08:07I'm not leaving.
01:08:09No.
01:08:28No.
01:08:34But there's no coming back.
01:08:58Jesus.
01:09:00What are you trying to do?
01:09:01Finish me off?
01:09:03Sorry, mate.
01:09:04So where is this mysterious source?
01:09:07It is.
01:09:08You better not be yanking my chain.
01:09:10I'm not.
01:09:11But you have to understand this is a delicate situation.
01:09:17It's like the Freemasons.
01:09:18You can't just walk away when you've had enough.
01:09:22Not without consequences.
01:09:26This individual needs to be certain you're prepared to go all the way.
01:09:31No matter what.
01:09:34I am.
01:09:35I had a funny feeling you might say.
01:09:38What do you mean?
01:09:46This sinner has been cleansed.
01:09:49Are you okay?
01:09:51Yeah.
01:09:54Down here.
01:09:55Look.
01:09:59Why did you bring me to the caves?
01:10:03You think Liam's down here?
01:10:11Why are we here, John?
01:10:14Oh, shit.
01:10:15It's a dead end.
01:10:16John.
01:10:17It's dies.
01:10:32Isn't that the Brethren symbol?
01:10:35What does it mean?
01:10:38It's all of the arrow.
01:10:42It is.
01:10:52You all right?
01:10:53Yes.
01:11:01This way.
01:11:05You all right?
01:11:06Oh, yeah.
01:11:07Yeah?
01:11:08Yeah.
01:11:24These must be the old catagoods.
01:11:27My god, John.
01:11:29Rouse.
01:11:39Just follow me.
01:11:41Just follow me, man.
01:11:43Where are we?
01:11:45Is that a forest?
01:11:52Just stay here.
01:11:57Come on.
01:12:09I think we should go back.
01:12:12Come on.
01:12:15Watch yourself.
01:12:16I'm right behind you.
01:12:17Come on.
01:12:19Just follow me.
01:12:21Come on.
01:12:32Come on, this way.
01:12:50It's not a flame.
01:12:52It's a tree.
01:13:15Where's my son?
01:13:17He is quite safe.
01:13:21I want to see him.
01:13:23Oh, you will see.
01:13:29You will see everything.
01:13:36Where's my boy?
01:13:38Hello, John.
01:13:43Where is he?
01:13:44Where's my boy?
01:13:46All in good time.
01:13:48If you find, I will kill you.
01:13:50I swear to god I will kill you.
01:13:52No, John.
01:13:54You are not in any position to threaten anyone.
01:13:57Just now.
01:13:58I want to see him.
01:14:01Very well.
01:14:04Let us begin our reunion.
01:14:16Now.
01:14:18Do you see?
01:14:20Repent or die.
01:14:25It wasn't this way.
01:14:26It was...
01:14:27It was a choice.
01:14:29You weren't killing him.
01:14:30You were...
01:14:31You were...
01:14:31You were recruited.
01:14:37You killed Mary, right?
01:14:40She was cleansed.
01:14:42You were sick.
01:14:45After that.
01:14:46And a measured disclosure of information.
01:14:50It wasn't difficult to have you discredit yourself to your senior officers.
01:14:55After all.
01:14:57Who would believe all of this?
01:15:02But I was not the only person that you encountered the day that Mary died.
01:15:07Or have you forgotten?
01:15:16After you came to visit me, I heard Francesca go to keep an eye on you.
01:15:22While we took care of Mary.
01:15:27Just tell me, was it before or after we met her?
01:15:31Oh, John.
01:15:32When our leadership realized you couldn't be turned,
01:15:35I was sent elsewhere.
01:15:37That's why I left you.
01:15:39I just want to see my boy.
01:15:40We gave you so many chances.
01:15:43But you would not give it up.
01:15:46The only reason we haven't killed you already
01:15:49is that Francesca thought
01:15:52that you might join us.
01:15:53I just want to see my boy.
01:15:56I want to see my son.
01:15:57You're all crazy!
01:15:59We are the cure for a sick and diseased society.
01:16:04And you think you're the ones to do that, do you?
01:16:07My grandfather and I?
01:16:10Yes.
01:16:12Jack the Ripper.
01:16:14Well done.
01:16:17Unfortunately, my grandfather died before he had a chance to recruit to our cause.
01:16:24And so it was left to me, eventually, to take up his mantle.
01:16:31He is buried underneath this very tree.
01:16:40See how it has grown unlike any other in the forest.
01:16:46Nurtured by the blood of mine own.
01:16:50Surviving for decades.
01:16:52A flame.
01:16:54A flame.
01:16:55That will never die.
01:16:59Just bring me my boy.
01:17:04The brethren of the flame.
01:17:07Have always been.
01:17:09And will always be.
01:17:14All of us.
01:17:16Here.
01:17:19Is our newest recruit.
01:17:25Jesus Christ.
01:17:27No.
01:17:28Jesus Christ.
01:17:32Your son is here on his own volition.
01:17:35Nia.
01:17:36I don't know what that's you.
01:17:40This ain't you.
01:17:41I've repented.
01:17:43And I am cleansed.
01:17:47Your son has repented.
01:17:50And the gods are well pleased.
01:17:53Just let him go, please.
01:17:56Your son is here on his own volition.
01:17:59Jon.
01:18:01Just let him go.
01:18:03He has embraced our cause.
01:18:06And so can you.
01:18:15We live pure and wholesome lives.
01:18:19Think about it.
01:18:21We can be together.
01:18:23And you can be with your son again.
01:18:25And we can be a new family.
01:18:27And you can be happy.
01:18:30Don't you want to be happy, John?
01:18:33You fucking man.
01:18:35You wrong man.
01:18:37Very well.
01:18:42High Priestess.
01:18:44Prepare thy knife.
01:19:25The plague story has run its course.
01:19:27It's time to move on.
01:19:29But people are still talking about it.
01:19:31Gossip and hearsay aren't news.
01:19:34Leave that to the crackpots on social media.
01:19:36I want a thousand words on the government's outsourcing bill by the end of the day.
01:19:41What about Verney?
01:19:43It's tragic.
01:19:44Of course it is.
01:19:46But a secret society?
01:19:48Killer plague doctors?
01:19:50I mean really.
01:19:51Whatever next?
01:19:53Lizard people in Downing Street?
01:19:56I don't think so.
01:20:03Well go on then.
01:20:05The clock's ticking.
01:20:07Tick tock.
01:20:09Tick tock.
01:20:11Tick tock.
