"I'm afraid I'm going to have to, sweetheart." "HE GROANS" "I didn't kill your girls." "Yes, you did." "I tried to warn you, over and over, and you wouldn't listen." "As soon as you put this on me, you dug their graves." "Why do you think nothing bad has happened to you, ever since you met her?" "She is the worst luck that could ever happen to you." "If Winter found out that you'd stolen evidence..." "You do it, stuff like that, all the time." "Yeah, but I do it so you don't have to." "You want to be transferred?" "I think a fresh start would be best for everyone." "The flat burned down." "I've no other clothes." "Don't touch my pants." "It was just an accident, pure bad luck." "It happened about the same time you sent me that text." "I was innocent." " Purer than the driven snow." " Not quite." "Is the kebab such a good idea?" "You what?" "I said, is the kebab such a good idea?" "I drive with one hand, darling, don't worry, you're safe with me." "It's you I'm thinking about." "All that saturated fat." "It's not good for your arteries." "I'm here for a good time, not a long time." "I said, I'm here for a good time, not a long time." "Sure this is where you want dropped?" "Yeah." "You could get attacked out here on your own." "I'm fine." "It's 25 quid, then." "Oh!" "Oi!" "Come here!"

"I'll call Rui." "He's here tonight." "Harry?" "What are you doing, tonight?" "I don't know, I'll call you later." "I want to talk... about Isabella." "I don't know who you're talking about." "She's literally calling you, right now." "That's not my phone." "Oh." "Your name is Rui Hirota..." "No, it isn't." "OK." "When you're ready to talk, let me know." "What time did you get in at last night?" "Late." "Oh." "Er..." "Hello." "Hi, you must be Rich." "I didn't realise Harry had... a friend staying over." "Isabella." " Nice to meet you." " So, you hear lots about me?" "Oh, lots." "It's great to finally meet you." "Coffee?" "No, I'm afraid I'm going to have to love you and leave you." "I have a taxi outside." "But it's really nice to meet you." "And I hope that we spend more time together, soon." "OK." "Bye." "She gone?" " Yes." " Thanks." "Well, she seems... interesting." "That's one word for her." "Foreign, classy, beautiful, how do you manage it?" "I honestly wouldn't know where to start." "Well, imagine I already know about your childhood, your failed marriage and your recent homelessness." "Maybe it's a language barrier." "Yeah, maybe she doesn't understand a single word you're saying." " That's why it's working out so well." " Funny" "Oh, come on." "She's gorgeous!" "What have you possibly got to complain about?" "I'm not sure, that's the problem." "The amount of relationships you've screwed up because she likes some" " silly cocktail or doesn't like Man U." " No, no, no, this is more..." "She might be..." "So...?" "So...?" "So, you need to find out for sure." "Because if she is a good one, you don't want to let her go." " Morning." " Morning." "Dog walker found him floating, first thing." "Do we have an ID?" "Suri and Orwell are checking out the taxi, we think it's his." "So, you heard about Steve?" "No." "What's he done, now?" "He's requested a transfer." "Buster Wiley, date of birth eighth of the fifth, '66." "I told him to think on it a couple of days." "He might change his mind if he felt... ..less isolated from the team." "Doesn't look like he's been in the water that long, does it?" "Harry, did you hear me?" "I'm not sure what I can do." "You know, I thought you might be a little more understanding of the redemptive power of second chances." "You're saying Buster topped himself?" "Jumped off the railway bridge?" "Cab's registered to a B Wiley." "Married, two kids in their 20s." "Also, he's got a dash cam." "Could be useful." "Check it out, Steve." "Daisy?" "Hello, love." "You all right?" "Mum says you think you've got a magic bracelet." "This?" "You skipped school to ask me a stupid question like that?" "You think you've got problems, Dad?" " Everyone has problems." " Tell me about it." "You can talk to me about anything, you know." "I mean, if you ever need to." "I don't need to talk." "I just wanted to know that you weren't going insane." "Do I look insane?" "Come home, then." " Stop being an arse." " I can't." "Come home, I mean." "Come on..." "I'll drop you back to school." "So, what we're looking at?" "Asphyxiation, caused by aspiration of fluid." "In this case, canal water, into the air passages as a result of submersion." " He drowned." " Anyone else involved?" "Well, there's no signs of a struggle." "No cuts or bruises or lesions inconsistent with a death by drowning." "What about this scar?" " An operation?" " Heart bypass, relatively fresh, too." "When do we get the tox report?" "Oh, it'll be a while, I'm afraid." "They're backed up." "I'm still waiting for reports from two weeks ago." "Can you try and speed it up?" "I'd like to clear this up as quick as possible, so we can solve some real murders." "I can certainly try, DI Clayton." "Good lad." "How was the pathologist?" "Waiting on the tox report, you?" "Yeah, I extracted that dash cam footage you asked for." "Oh, yeah?" "So, what did you get?" "Apart from one very sad cabbie." "Have a look." " Who's she?" " That is his last fare." "Rewind." "Stop it there." "Can you not get a clearer image than that?" "That's all we have." "So, how does a 15-stone man chasing a girl half his size end up in the water?" "He goes for her, she pushes him in?" "Either way, this isn't suicide." " Great work, Steve." " Maybe it's not." "We need to find her." "You seem upset." "Can I help?" "I've just got a bit of a hangover." "You look familiar." "Do I know you from somewhere?" " Maybe from a meeting." " Oh, God!" "Forget I said I had a hangover, will you?" "I won't say a word." "How long since you were sober?" "Are you hearing me?" " We're just talking." " You are." "You had a liver transplant." "How do you know that?" "You mentioned it in a meeting." "Did I?" "I didn't think I..." "You know, there are thousands of people waiting for organ transplants." "Oh, God, you don't need to make me feel bad, OK?" "I honestly couldn't feel worse." "Saying you feel bad isn't enough." "Which meeting did you come to?" "You have to change, Julie." " Which one?" " Paddington." "I've never been to a meeting in Paddington." "Harry?" "Johnny." "I'm looking for my wife." "I didn't know you'd be entertaining." " Behave." " Daisy about?" "I thought I'd run her to school." "No, she's got hockey today before classes." "You've missed her." "Hockey?" "!" "Since when?" "She's very good, you should go and watch her play." "At least it keeps her off that bloody computer." "Anna, I've said it before, it's nothing to worry about." " It's perfectly normal." " What's up?" "I know, I know, I'm just being hypersensitive because of everything that happened with..." "Oh, is she having difficulty adjusting to Johnny?" "No." "She's just always upstairs with the door shut." "She's 13 years old." "I'd think there was something up, if she wasn't." "Exactly what I said." "Look, why don't I go upstairs and finish getting dressed?" "It's just, every time I... ..try and have a look, she just closes the laptop." "Well, she doesn't want her mum to see her Instagram or..." "I know, I know, I get it." "I wouldn't want my mum reading my diary." "It's just there's something about the urgency with which she closes it." " You checked her history?" " Suspiciously clean." "You want me to take a look?" "Be discreet, will you?" "I am a professional." "What?" "_ _" "Rui?" "Yes?" "I'm calling to let you know that someone checked for your name on the Interpol system." "The user was a DI Harry Clayton." " Miss Augustine..." " I heard you." " Should I take care of this" " No, I'll do it." "Would you keep an eye on him and let me know where he is at all times?" "Thank you." "She'd kill me if I talked." " I'll kill you." " I haven't done anything wrong." "You help her kill people." "No, I don't." "I just drive, and she doesn't kill anyone." "Oh, so she just wants them dead and somehow they die?" "So you know it already?" "You don't need me to tell you what she is." "Really?" "What's that?" "Magnificent." "No, she's just a thug in a posh frock." "You're just jealous." "Tell me everything you know, and you can go back to her." " Afternoon." " She has an operation scar, like Buster." "That's right." "This poor girl was on her second liver." "She'd had a transplant?" "Oh, watch out, Suri, he's catching up with you" " She's so young." " Hmm." "Now, this is what you want to know." "Ever hear of Pentaprevin?" "Big centre-half, played for Lamiakos." "It's a short-acting skeletal muscle relaxant, mostly used in hospitals." "What for?" "It's used in tandem with a sedative to anaesthetise patients before surgery, hugely specialised." "Now, look here." "I have to confess, I missed this on my first pass, but, after the tox report showed Pentaprevin in Buster's system," "I had another look." "What are we looking at?" "There, do you see?" "I think that is a needle mark." "What?" "Does she have, erm..." " Pentaprevin?" " Yeah." "Oh, I'd need a tox report." " How long?" " Here's one I prepared earlier." "Good boy." "And...?" "Pentaprevin, yes." "Now, look at this." "See?" "So they're related?" "You're the detectives." "But one other thing she'd been drinking, which is very naughty if you've had a liver transplant." "All right." "So, were they poisoned or were they drowned?" "Both." "I think they were incapacitated by the Pentaprevin, then thrown in the water." "So, they were conscious, but they couldn't save themselves?" "Exactly." "It's a terrible way to die." "You know you're drowning, but you just can't move." "Jesus." "Yes, hello" "This is Detective Steve Orwell with the Murder Investigation Squad." "I'm looking to speak to someone in the anaesthesiology department." "I've got a list here of all the deaths on Regent's Canal in the last 18 months." "Where do I start?" "Can I leave my number and ask...?" "Both of our victims had had major surgery, so check the list, see if anyone matches that profile." "There are more deaths in the canals than you think." "Well, crosscheck the names with their medical records to see what that throws up." "I'm feeling lucky." "What about our suspect, the lady in the black coat?" "Now, well, your footage didn't offer us much, did it?" "Bingo." "Daniel Green, three weeks ago... 50s, body in canal, suspected suicide." "He was receiving regular treatment from a private hospital called the" " Regent Clinic." " Did he have a transplant, or what?" "I don't know, it doesn't say." "Right, let's go." "You keep bashing the phones, big lad." "How come I work my arse off and you just get lucky?" "We're here to discuss one of your patients with you." "Daniel Green." "I doubt I could help you, what with doctor-patient confidentiality." "Let's see how we go, shall we?" "Before he died, was Mr Green depressed?" "Well, he was suffering from terminal cancer, so I don't think it's a stretch to say he wasn't in the highest of spirits." "I understand he recently had a major operation." "As I've said, I can't discuss a patient's medical details." "Well, you know, I can come back here with a warrant for the information, bring 30 policemen, uniforms, we'll stick around here for a while." "What would you prefer?" "He'd had a successful lung transplant." "It's an extremely rare procedure, but he could afford it." "How much does this treatment cost?" "Well, I'm not at liberty to discuss that." "But I doubt I could afford one." "If he paid all that money for a transplant, why would you think he was suicidal?" "One of the doctors saw him smoking outside the hospital, post-operation." "None of us could believe it, really." "Felt like he was sticking two fingers up at God." "Do you use Pentaprevin here?" "We do." "Why do you ask?" "We'll need the names and addresses of any staff that might have access." "I can't give you those, it's confidential." "That's funny, that thing you do." " I'm sorry?" " You know, when your eyes turn away." "Dry mouth, swallow." "You're doing it now." "Not much of a poker face." "Whatever it is you're hiding has got very little to do with doctor-patient confidentiality, wouldn't you say so, Dr Jones?" "We had to let someone go recently, someone who would have had access." " How long ago?" " About a month." "She was a nurse at the practice." "What was her name?" "Scarlett Cartmell." "Why did you sack her?" "She was caught stealing drugs." " Pentaprevin?" " Yes, and a variety of other substances." " She was an addict" " I take it you reported this?" "There was concern raised over the potential public relations fallout." "Write down Scarlett Cartmell's details now." "Do you think she's our woman in black?" " Well, it's like looking likely." " What's her motive?" "She loses her job, feels hard done by, takes it out on others who have had second chances but squandered them." "Buster Wiley, he kept eating kebabs, his wife said as much, Julie Tracey, she kept drinking, Daniel Green kept smoking." "Jesus." "She's killing addicts." "What's the matter, think you're next on the list?" "No I..." " I'm not an addict." " Sure" "I'm..." "You've got a lot more gobby in the last month, you know?" "Scarlett Cartmell, police, open up." "Right, I'll have to break it down, stand back." "Well, I can close it again if you really want to break it down." "As I said, gobby." "Scarlett?" "Jesus!" "God." "Suri?" "SHE GAGS" "It looks like an overdose." "Approximate time of death?" "I'd say she's been lying there for a good three, four weeks, if I had to guess, which, basically, I do." "So she's not our killer." " Well, thanks for coming down." " That's fine." "It was the right call." "Her body's too delicate to move." "Difficult to do an autopsy on soup." "Right, Ralph." "How are we getting on?" "Almost everything on the list that Kenneth gave us is accounted for." "Sir." "Almost?" "We're missing some morphine and the Pentaprevin." "Well, looks like Scarlett had the morphine." "So our killer is still out there?" "Yep, with the stolen Pentaprevin." "Hello?" "Excuse me." "'You're not avoiding me, are you?" "'" " Me?" "Never." " 'Great'." "'Shall we meet up?" "'" " Sure." "When?" " 'How about right now?" "'" " What are you doing here?" " Oh, I was just out for a walk." "My driver seems to have taken the day off." "Come here." "In." "So?" "How are you here?" "This is a crime scene." "A murder scene." "I wanted to see you, Harry, and..." "I tend to get what I want." "I've had this for ten years." "Finding you is..." "Plus, I've gathered friends around me, people who'll do anything." "But I guess the honeymoon is over." "That's why you did an Interpol check on me." "I told you I have friends, but at least I'm being honest with you, which makes one of us." "And then there was that chat the other night, full of hints and innuendos about a man dying." "Was that you?" "Do I kill people?" "Do you?" "What does my police record say?" "It's clean." "Spotless." "Almost artificially so." "What about Rui, my driver?" "What have you done with him?" "Nothing." "Looks like we both have trust issues, then." "I'm not sure what I feel about you working." "On the one hand, the authority's undeniably a turn-on." "On the other, you're not much fun." "I've only ever been honest with you, Harry." " What are you afraid of?" " I shouldn't be doing this." "Then stop me." "Sorry, sir, sorry to bother you, but we need to move the van." "Come home with me." " I can't." " Please." "Sir?" "I am trying to question a witness here, fuckin' eejits, move!" "Sorry, sir." "Morning, what's the craic?" "Got a possible lead, Emily Sorkin, works at the clinic, knew Scarlett, had access to the drugs, pretty good height match for the figure in the video." "We reckon she could be our woman in black." "Have you got an address?" "Good." "Suri, let's check her out." "I think since Steve did the heavy lifting, he should go." " Orwell?" " I'll go with him." " OK, don't lose her." " I'm sure we'll be fine." "If you wanted, you could break the news to Scarlett's next of kin." "Anna!" "Oh, hello." "That's such a coincidence." "Are you drinking alone?" "I'm waiting for Johnny, he's, um, he's been held up in traffic." "Well, I'm on my own, so it's perfect." "I admire you." "Really?" "Yeah, well, not just because of your work.." "After everything Harry did to you, you still make time for him, and let him be with your daughter." "You're almost too kind." "Yes, well, he's hard to get rid of." "But he is worth sticking with, isn't he?" "I sometimes worry that I'm betting on the wrong guy." " Your bracelet..." " Hmm" " Where'd you get it?" " It's a gift from Harry, actually." "It's an acquired taste, but I do like it." "Harry?" "Buying jewellery?" "Wow!" "I'm a bit worried that my wrist will turn green." "Yes, well, I wouldn't worry too much about Harry, if I were you." "You've clearly got him in a very good place indeed." "So sorry I'm late, darling." "The most incredible set of circumstances delayed me." "You wouldn't believe..." "So, this new Suri..." "What new Suri?" "Well, the one who shouts down her boss and doesn't do what she's told." "I'm not!" "That's, that's not..." "No, no, no, it's good, it's good." "I mean, don't go full Harry Clayton on us, but..." "No, I like it." "Come on." "Do you want to check around back?" "You check round the back." " Emily Sorkin?" " Yes." " Clare Cartmell?" " Yes?" "I'm DI Harry Clayton." "I'm afraid I have some bad news." "May I come in?" " Er, yes, yes, of course, come in." " Thank you." "Er, what's this about?" "It's about your sister, Scarlett." "What's happened?" "I'm sorry to say she's been found dead in her flat." "Right." "I would like to tell you that this is a surprise, but it isn't." "Was it an overdose?" "Yes." "Were you close?" "Sometimes." "I..." "I understand how destructive addiction is." "I don't believe in addiction." "You don't?" "I don't believe it's a disease, anyway." "It's a choice." "A continuing series of choices." "My sister wasn't ill, I'm afraid." "She just liked to get high." "It's a bit more complicated than that, surely?" "If addiction was a brain disease, the neurologists would be able to find evidence backing it up, but they can't." "The phrase, the idea, addiction is merely an abdication of responsibility." "Sorry, I..." "You must think I'm a monster?" "No." "Ms Cartmell, I deal with real monsters every day." "Look, I'm sorry, but I really do have to get to work." "No, of course, of course." "What work do you do, by the way?" "I am an anaesthetist." "Ah, a medical family." "Did you ever work with Scarlett?" " No" " Did you work at the Regent Clinic?" "Well, here's my card." "Please, if you feel I can help in any way, give me call." "One thing, uhm do you happen to have a recent photo of Scarlett?" " I'm afraid not." " An old one, maybe?" "Um, would it be all right if I dropped it into the station?" "As I said, I'm running late." "I'm sorry, but do you mind getting it now?" "Of course." "_ _" "No good, I'm afraid, she had a solid alibi." "Maybe our murderer never worked at the Regent Clinic." "I'm going to look into locums, see if there's a link there." "Where's Harry?" "He's playing his condolences to Scarlett's sister." "No, really, he is." "All right." "Go through the list of staff from other hospitals, see how many doors were going to need to knock." "Sir." "'Hi, this is Harry Clayton, please leave a message... '" " I've got something." " What is it?" "I've been going through the agency list of all the locums" " that work at the Regent Clinic?" " And...?" "There's an anaesthetist there who also does shifts at the hospital wher Buster Wiley had his heart surgery, and the infirmary where Julie Tracey had her transplant." " A woman?" " Yeah, and her name is Clare Cartmell." "It isn't far." "It's Harry's!" "I didn't kill Scarlett." "She called me after she lost her job." "Wanted money." "I wasn't going to help." "If you keep giving money to people like that, they never get better." "But she was my sister, and I loved her, so I went round to see her." "And there she was, dead in the bath." "And next to her was the Pentaprevin." "I do work at the Regent Clinic, every now and then, as a locum." "I was going in, and there was Daniel Green, sucking on a cigarette outside." "I looked at him, and I thought about my sister... ..and afterwards, it felt like justice." "I am so sorry, I didn't get a chance to stop." "Oh, it's fine." "No, no, come on, give me your insurance details," " and I'll give you mine." " No, no, honestly, it's fine." "It's just a scratch." "No, come on, I totally damaged your bumper!" " Don't worry about it." " Please, I insist!" "I'm fully comp." "Wait!" "I'd like to report an accident." "All right, we search the canal, that's where she dumps her bodies." "I want every available unit searching every inch of it, that's eight and a half miles, and we have no time, so go, now!" "'Information of a damage-only accident involving vehicle registered to" "'Clare Cartmell in the last five or six minutes." "The vehicle has left the scene, over.'" "Received, what's the location?" "Over." "'Eastway junction with Great Eastern Road, 'stand by for further details, over.'" "That's the Stratford end of the canal, let's go." "The others were already drowning, thrashing about, dragging society down with them." "Stuffing your face with a kebab like that." "I mean, that's a suicide note, really, isn't it?" "I'm sorry, but you're all trying to stop me, and I'm right." "I know I am." " It should have been me." "It's my fault." " Shut up." " I should have gone, not Harry." " Yeah, and then we'd be looking for you." "He'll be all right." "It's Harry, he's always all right." "CAR HORN BLARES" "Whoa, whoa, whoa, Steve!" "What the fuck?" "Harry!" "Police!" "Stop!" "Stop!" " Stop it!" " Why aren't you saving your colleague?" "Is he dead?" "Is he?" "Come on!" "Harry?" "OK." "OK, OK, you're all right." " Thanks." " You're welcome." "So, look, Steve, we've had our differences, haven't we?" "Really?" "What?" ""We've had our differences, but I've developed a grudging respect for you, Steve," ""and now I, the almighty Harry Clayton," ""have decided to bestow upon you my gratitude and my forgiveness." ""You may retract your transfer"." "Something along those lines?" "Almost exactly along those lines." "Yeah." "Hey, guess what?" "I don't care." "I don't care if you want me to go or stay." "My leaving's got nothing to do with you." "You're not the centre of the universe, mate." " I know that." " You might." "She doesn't." "She is a very good police officer." "You are a bad influence on her." "Look, are you both certain you don't want a hospital checkup?" "Chief, we're fine." "Thank you." "Oh..." "Oh, um..." "I should take this." "So, ah, apparently I owe you a thank-you card or something?" "I'll take the something." "Do you trust me now?" "My colleagues were telling me about this madwoman, she jumped out in front of their car, it's a miracle they didn't kill her, so they say." "As far as trusting you goes... ..I might be getting there." "Well, I owe you an apology." "My little Rui is back." "Poor boy got mugged and ended up in hospital." "Oh, I'm sorry." "I'll make him all better." "When can I make you all better, Harry?" "I can't tonight, I've got Daisy, sorry, but..." " soon." " OK, just don't keep a girl waiting." "Yep." "Oh, there she is!" "Hello, Dais." "Mwah!" "I've just been telling Daisy about digital effects, about how you can manipulate anything these days with digital effects." "Great." "And I've been telling Uncle Rich that I'm nearly 14, and I know all about CGI." "Sorry, am I missing something?" "Somebody posted this online." "Oh." "Right." "Can't get away with anything these days." "Dad, I want you to tell me the truth." "OK." "Is that really a magic bracelet?" "Yes." "It is." "Cool." "Show me." "OK." " Heads or tails" " Heads." "Tails." "Call again." "Heads." "Tails." "Again." " Bad luck, Dais." " Dad, this is pathetic." "Can't you jump off a building into a trifle or something?" "Just keep watching." "I win every time." "Oh, and Harry, another staggeringly beautiful woman dropped a package off for you this morning." "_ _" "People are dying every day in this city." "Always by accident." " She is always there." " How many?" " I don't know." " She kills them?" "She wants them dead, and they die." "She's unstoppable, ever since the first." "The man who killed her children, what did she do to him?" "She nailed him to a tree and slit his throat." "Woe betide anyone who crosses Isabella Augustin." "If we don't start helping each other... ..we might fall out." "Dad has superpowers." "Batman has Alfred, Spider-Man has Aunt May." "Whoa, whoa, whoa, I'm not your dad's Aunt May." "Don't you move!" "I'm afraid I'm going to have to, sweetheart." "Oh!" "Go, go, go..." "How well do I really know you?" "'She wants them dead, and they die." "'She's unstoppable.'" "Your pain, your anger, just letting it out like that."
