"i want copies asap." " you're not on the list." " yes, i am." "drive on." " di jordan." " dci." "bring back any happy memories?" "what is this?" " close the door." " i'm talking to you." "all right?" "I want to see the security tapes for the last 24 hours." "10 00:01:59,070 -- 00:02:01,040 Have them biked over asap." "i d-don't have the au-authority." "find someone who does." "the vows you are about to take are to be made in the presence of god, who Is judge of all, and knows all the secrets of our hearts." "will you take kate to be your wife?" "will you love her, comfort her, honor and protect her, and, forsaking all others, be faithful to her as long as you both shall live?" "i will." "wait here." "will you love him, comfort him, honor and protect him, and, forsaking all others, be faithful to him as long as you both shall live?" "i will." " will you, the families and friends -- - tony!" "i'm really sorry to ruin your party - bloody hell!" "went better than i thought it would." "thanks for letting me know." " it was short notice." " yeah, you're telling me." "Don't ever do that to me again." "I get enough shocks in my life, thanks." "can you spare a minute?" " okay, but just a minute." " thank you." "on my wedding day?" " there was something similar three months ago." " how similar?" "enough to make me wonder how someone can kill again when they're already locked up on remand." "the second one happened in a restaurant kitchen." "The victim, John freeman, was one of the investors." "The first one was in a garage." "gavin cochran broke steve harvey's arms and legs, then shoved what forensics is certain was a nail bar down his throat, ... Yanked down hard, snapped his neck." "he then branded him." " second murder is identical." " you've got the wrong man?" "i'm thinking i just made dci and i don't deserve it." "Tell me about gavin cochran, then tell me i've got it right." "there goes my honeymoon." "47 00:04:40,809 -- 00:04:42,297 might need you inside." " this is actually quite important, kate." " so is this." " I know you might frown on it." " i didn't say that." "but will had planned all this." "I couldn't not go through with it." "He might not be here in person, but he is in spirit." "And i wanted to renew our vows, whatever." "I was just fortunate that tony was good enough to stand in for him." "how did you catch cochran?" "we found his wallet at the scene, he couldn't provide an alibi." "He also once served three years for beating someone with a nail bar." " the victims?" "hey worked for him." "Small-time thugs, dealt drugs, ran prostitutes, the usual garbage." "piss off!" "well, if ever there was an incentive to become vegetarian." " definitely the same as the first one?" " looks that way.sorry." "so what do you think happened?" "that cochran somehow escaped and killed again." " why?" " to prove he was innocent of the first murder." "the branding is his signature." "He's telling us he did this, no one else, just him." "It's a boast." "he's showing us he's completely crushed his victims, and only he had the power to do it." "he's telling us to be very afraid." ""i'm out here." "Fear me."" " Like cochran to you?" " yeah, absolutely." "guv." "We've got a footprint." " that was careless." " i love the careless ones." "all right, i want a copy of that footprint, and i want it circulated, along with everything you can tell me about the shoe." "that's twice he's been careless." "First the wallet, now the footprint." "It's hard to believe he wouldn't be ultra-careful the second time, eh?" "obviously isn't a quick learner." "if he wants people to fear him, then he's not going to make any mistakes." "it would diminish him. and he would know that." "i'll be sure to tell him." " up yours." " "v" for victory." "roman numeral number five." "tony hill makes this look easy." " if carol sees you at her desk - her 'old' desk" " and there's no harm in trying it for size." "as if they'd ever promote you." "heads up." "what's going on?" " we were just - trying to to figure out the significance of the "v."" "the office was gone spare." "forgot i'd moved." " branding." " up yours. - there's no need to get personal." " doesn't look like much of an upgrade." " doesn't feel like, either." "any chance of seeing cochran?" "reading about him is one thing." "being with him would be everything." "one size nine should be enough to get us a visit." "no one wants to see gavin cochran walk, but right now, this second murder is his get-out clause." "now, what i want from you -- and that is all of you" " is to start working out how he did it." "he must have had help." "someone knows something. someone saw something." "now get out there and find it." "well, the cc-tv tape indicates that he was in his cell at the time of the murder." " could have been doctored." " right, it's not easy finding that out." "you'll never be able to know for sure." "so you're saying that the tape has been faked somehow and he's got an accomplice?" "this is gavin cochran." "hat bastard is capable of anything, and that includes buying off a prison officer or two." "this isn't your ordinary criminal, kev, so bear that in mind, please." "thanks." "naughty. i heard you popped in unannounced earlier." "social call, geoffrey." "so ... who's this?" " i'm dr. tony hill." " doctor?" "but i'm not ill." "what are you trying to do?" "you keep making mistakes." " you're the one making mistakes." " what's this?" "a footprint, found at the scene." " explain the scene." " john freeman's murder." " johnny's dead?" " you saw the photos." "didn't you recognize him?" "last time i saw him, he had a face." " what size shoe do you take?" " why?" "going shopping?" "sooner you tell her, gavin, the sooner we can call a halt to this." "8 right." " no more questions." " hang on - surely you could just check gavin's case file." "there's absolutely no point in any of us being here." "do you like it in here, gavin?" "well, i'd prefer the outdoors." "the prison officers, how do they treat you?" "they only beat me on sundays." "the rest of the time, we're best of friends." "really sorry, your b-brother's here, gavin. he's worked up. he wants to talk to you." " what the hell are you doing?" " just telling gavin - out!" "we're in the middle of an interview." "is your brother your only family?" "it's the other way around." "i'm all he's got. to tell you the truth, he's lost without me." "how lost?" "according to the visitor's list, george tries to see gavin every day." "most of the time he just sits outside, staring at the building, looking lost." "classic family set-up -- one strong son, one weak son." "father's a bully, picks on the weak one -- george." "gavin steps in, proves to be tougher than his father." "in that moment, gavin is everything to george ---- protector, savior, hero" " but with gavin locked up, george is cast adrift he can't function." "he suddenly realizes the world is full of bullies." "he needs his brother and he needs him now." "and the best way to achieve that is to prove his brother's innocence." "by killing john freeman. we should bring george in." "apply some pressure." "my instinct would be to play it as if you're an annoyed parent." " and he'll respond to that." " what were your parents like?" "mum was classic delusional." "desperately believing only in the good." "it was a natural defense against the fear that dad had fallen out of love with her." "she didn't realize he just had difficulty in expressing it." "i was just making small talk, actually." " i see movement." " we're bringing george cochran in." "keeping it in the family, eh?" "that should make that smug brother of his squirm a little." "if there's one thing i hate, it's smugness." "me, too, sir." "hello, george." "you got "my left foot"?" "it's not that sort of video shop." "yours will do, then." "hi, tony." "i just wanted to say thanks again for today. it really helped." "and i dropped round a few bits and pieces of will's. thought you might like them." "i'll speak to you soon. bye." "hello." "hello." "how are you?" " how are you?" " i'm fine, thanks." "i'm tony." " i'm tony." " hm, i'm tony, too." "pleased to meet you, tony." " tony hill." "tony. we've got george cochran." " bastard takes size 9s." " i didn't do anything, i swear!" "let's get him in a cell." "no!" "no, i didn't do anything!" " just move!" " i'm claustrophobic!" "you've got the wrong man.hold on, carol?" "you can't put me in a cell!" " can you hear me?" "!" "carol!" " see if there's an office gone spare." "carol!" "carol, listen to me." "if he finds the prospect of a cell that terrifying, then he didn't do that murder." "i didn't do anything. i didn't." "you're going nowhere." "jesus." "shit!" "sweet divine sufferer" "get an ambulance." "jesus." "when i said "unsettle gavin cochran, i didn't mean hurl his brother through a window." " with all due res-- - i'd watch my back from now on, because if cochran blames you ... it's george." "thanks." "okay, let's go again from the top evidence says george did it; you say he isn't capable." "george's claustrophobia is extreme." "chances are his father or mother locked him in dark rooms and cupboards when he was young." " and gavin turned up to unlock them?" " yeah." "so maybe this is george returning the favor." "i mean, if you had a brother like gavin, you'd jump out of a plane if he told you to, wouldn't you?" "well, maybe george would do that ... but he would never enter a confined space." "he'd need months, maybe years, of therapy before he could do what gavin wanted." "that's assuming it is what gavin wanted." "so ... gavin got out,framed his brother?" "that doesn't make sense." "not with the perceived dynamics of their relationship." "i want dci jordan ... to know exactly how i'm feeling right now." " do you understand what i'm saying?" " absolutely." "let her know, denny." "let her know." "i want to establish a polemic between the advertising of the perfect world and the effect it has on someone who is less than perfect." " why did they wear masks?" " who?" "the people on your t-shirt." "they want to be famous ..." " but they don't want to be known." " it's not even my t-shirt." "right, doesn't make sense." "is this a bad time?" "keep thinking about your masks, gavin." "gordon." "we've checked the tapes in the remand center." "we're never going to prove that cochran left his cell." "if he didn't do the second murder, the likelihood is he didn't do the first, either." " these killings are acutely specific." " i know i put him on remand, remember?" "which is exactly where he belongs." "cochran enjoys power. you saw him in the remand center. he's treating it like a hotel." "the man has huge presence and charisma, gets everything he wants no matter the circumstances, so why would a man with that sort of standing get his hands dirty?" "he'd order a hit, not carry it out that's where his dominion lies." "he doesn't have to prove he has power;" "he already has it, carol." " our killer is seeking it." " i completely agree with you." "cochran's only hope is to prove that he didn't do the second murder." "what i need from you is who he got to do it." " have you ruled out a copycat?" " i haven't, no." "but then again, there were certain details that weren't released to the media." " the branding, for instance." " things get out, carol. word spreads." "no. this is not a copycat. it's gavin cochran, i know it is." " tony hill." " hi. i was wondering if you got the video." "watching it right now." "that's funny -- me, too." "if i think really hard, it's almost as if will were standing there beside me." "of course." " i'm sorry, kate. i've got to go." " do you have to?" "i thought we could talk." "it's just that the stonemason rang." "he wants to know what letter to put on my will's headstone." " i said i didn't know." " kate, we'll talk about that, i promise and i'll drop by the first chance i get, okay?" "okay." "carol?" "i think i know the type we should be looking for." "you've fallen under his spell." "he's handsome, vital. he has an aura." "you've seen how everyone is around him." "he's significant. has a presence that draws people." "if they give him one thing, it is awe." "and you want that." "you crave it." "but no one sees you -- but they will." "oh, yeah, they'll come to know you." "they'll come to learn what true awe is." "the person we're looking for is reaching for cochran's mantel." "assuming his position, standing in for him." "like you did with the wedding vows?" "exactly." "only i was doing it to help kate, not myself." "i never told you this, but that was borderline morbid." "she's just not ready to accept that her husband's dead." "like i said, morbid." "could apply to george as much as anyone." "he could want to be his brother." "you haven't met him, you haven't spoken to him." "if it comes to it, i'll do that when he wakes up." " but you don't think it will?" " why would he start now?" "he's known his brother all his life." "he person i'm thinking of has only recently been overwhelmed by cochran." "what is it?" "nothing." "hey've given us the names of six officers who work on cochran's wing." "good, they need to be around cochran a lot." "and i need to see close-hand the effect he has on people." "i think he'll be younger than cochran, low self-esteem, not many friends, if any." "someone on the outside looking in." "possibly not a member of any social group.." "works diligently, but not spectacularly." "that's beyond him." "otherwise he would be noticed." "which is what he desires but he can't do it through his personality, so what does he do?" "he tries to be someone else--someone who people will look at." "take a seat. i'd like to ask you a few questions." "he won't be married." "okay, if you want to show the next person in on your way out, please." "he'll be suggestive." "eager to please." "thinks it will help him become a part of things." "later on, he'll learn, to his intense disappointment, that he hasn't." "he'll always be that way." "don't get up." "you got the money?" "didn't think so." "here." "pay me in kind." "(he'll look for something to blame his isolation on.)" "perhaps something physical" "(... where he can tell himself, people avoid him solely because of, say ... a harelip or facial scar. a stammer.)" " we've already -- - met him." "hi" "you came to see g-gavin." " first-name terms." " gavin?" " gavin cochran." " i did." " twice." " that's very observant." "i like to l-look out for him." "you're perfect." "on, i want you to apply for a search warrant immediately charlie davis will be home round six-thirty tonight." "until then to find whatever you can, including samples of his shoes. okay?" "don, it's tony. there will be news clippings about cochran i think there will even be a nail bar." "if there is, it will be close at hand." "thanks, don." "yeah, he'd like touching it. imagine himself as cochran holding it." "we were both right. i got cochran, you got davis." " who is that?" " scum." "we've got all of twenty minutes." "i'll take the downstairs; you two take upstairs." "knee giving you jip again?" "time for that desk job. three cheers to the doc." "i've been in constant touch with the hospital." "it's not looking good for george." "we placed him at the scene, geoffrey." "we had every right to bring him in for questioning." "you didn't have any right to throw him out of a window." " that is not what happened and you know it." " but i don't. where's your proof?" "your evidence?" "for all i know, this is police brutality gone mad." "look, i am sorry for what happened, but we did not put him in that coma." "when or if my client wakes, you care to tell him that?" "i'm sure it will make a world of difference." "hill was spot on. davis is a fan -- a big fan." "okay, get it to forensics, and bring davis in." "but let him stew overnight." "we'll start on him fresh in the morning." " you've got someone else." " i'm not at liberty to discuss that, and you know it." "does this mean you think gavin cochran's innocent?" "good night, geoffrey. this is one time your blarney won't work." "and next time you have a go at me, send one of your juniors -- i don't want to fall out with you." "alas, i have this rule where i don't get above my station." "spend a month every year "down among the dead men," great leveler my wife suggested it - she was very good at keeping my feet on the ground." " sounds like she made a lot of sense." " she did -- but since she died uh, my son helps. well, we help each other now, and ... we're not doing too bad considering." "i, uh ... i better get an early night." "i have a feeling i'm going to have a rather important meeting tomorrow." "good night." "good night, geoffrey." "all i'm asking for, your honor, is leniency." "my client's brother's prognosis isn't a favorable one, and i personally would hate to think that we didn't show enough compassion in such heartbreaking circumstances, so i appeal not only to common sense, but to all-round common decency" " give my client a modicum of freedom so that he can spend precious time with a precious brother." " i owe you one, geoff." " just make sure you behave yourself." "i always do." "can you spare some change, please, sir?" "can you spare any change, please?" "use his low self-esteem." "make him feel he has something you want, that he's important. he'll like that." " how do you explain the nail bar, charlie?" " n-nail bar?" "don't even know what a n-nail bar is." "it's a little crowbar, charlie." " we know you've got one." " might have." " what do you use it for?" " have you b-been in my house?" " we got a warrant." " we singled you out." " from all the rest." " you're the one we picked." " is that right?" " we found your cuttings, charlie." "it's a very interesting scrapbook you've got there." " sounds like you've b-been through everything." " you're a very interesting individual." " if you say so." " what do you use the nail bar for?" "guv." " cochran made bail." " what?" " compassionate leave." " compassionate leave?" "what about compassion for his victims?" "i want that bastard watched around the clock, every minute, every second. don't take your eyes off him. okay?" "you're playing it perfectly. he wants to tell you." "craves the attention." "guv, can i have a word?" "want to see my brother. now." " it has to be the right one." "there's nothing. it's clean." "no matching marks we can trace to any of the victims." "same goes for the shoes --right size, wrong imprint." "that's twice you've been wrong." " me?" " kev, get over to cochran's now." "yeah.already on my way." "wall for me, baby." "uh, let's hear some noise." "nice to be out?" "get adrenaline, now." " can you get another line in?" " he's not responding." "he's gone to the hospital to see his brother." "on my way" "i'm sorry, mr. cochran." "oh, great. bloody great!" " we'll find him." " here -- your turn to talk to carol." "wasn't expecting you." "who is he?" "houdini?" "this isn't happening." "so, why did charlie davis have a nail bar in his house?" "emulation." "that act of becoming." "we were lucky we caught him in his chrysalis state, his embryonic period." "he hadn't fully developed." " so he'll still turn into a killer, then?" " no, it's unlikely." "he's brought the wrong attention to himself now." "in fact, he's made his misery worse." "pushed himself further from his cherished goal." "people will go out of their way to ignore him." "possibly the only violence he'll ever commit is self-harm." "of course, he could go on to attempt suicide." "depends how strong his desire to be noticed is." "poor sod." "think we should warn them?" "i've just had a phone call from gavin cochran." "it appears that, as a direct result of being in your custody, his brother has died." "not only that, your people are apparently trailing him." " does your harassment know no bounds?" " did he say where he was?" "this is unbelievable. let me elucidate." "you're persecuting him, carol, despite the fact that you're now interviewing someone else in connection with the murders." "let me elucidate, geoffrey.we're not interviewing anyone else, and gavin's still our man - now, where is he?" "at the remand center -- with his brother dead, his amnesty is ended that's the sort of man he is." "i can't believe you're being so gullible." "look, we both want the same result." "my client patently didn't do these murders, and you want to put the right man away, so let's work together on this." "and let's do it fast." "gavin cochran knows he's been framed." "and if you don't start doing something about it, he will." "framed!" "it's one more con." "it's one more cochran lie." " have you asked yourself who would frame him?" " no." "don't you think you should?" "we've got another body." "cochran." "the adult human body has 206 bones." "after the beating this fellow took, i'd say he's got at least 230 now." " time of death?" " between three and four hours ago." "any i.d." "if there is, it won't come from what's left of his face." "has anyone been in to claim him, or the others?" "no, not a soul." " your point?" "if he is another lowlife, he didn't start off like that." "they were babies once, children." "they belonged to someone." "a family. but now ... the one family he knew were the cochrans." "and that family doesn't care." " can we get on?" "just something that filtered through." " same weapon?" " it's early days, but i'd hazard a yes." " the branding?" "same as before." " love to know what it means." " it's the key." "we unlock that, we get our man." "i'm leaving a message; the message is important it's crucial you appreciate this, even if you don't understand it." ""i want you to know me, but i can't reveal who i am."" "but i know who you are. you're gavin cochran." "yeah, that's right, you keep watching." "you'll find something that will belong to cochran." "hope so." "it'll be there. fits the pattern." "we've got something it's a contact lens." "this has been arranged, carol." "first, the dropped wallet, the footprint, and now this, a contact lens?" "someone wants the cochrans to suffer." " there isn't anyone else." "there has to be." "look. you see him?" "he's right here, carol." " i can see him." " i've got to go.." "who are you?" " hello. markham." " geoffrey, i was just thinking how much you said you'd like to be down among the dead men." "does it have to be this evening?" "i've hardly spent any time with my son recently." "it would be great if you could." "geoffrey?" "you still there?" "yeah, i'm still here." "just ... okay, well, what is it?" "it's four o'clock now." "say, about quarter, half-past?" "fine, yeah. okay. see you there." "don, it's me. call me the moment you get news on the identity of the latest victim. yeah?" "finally plucked up the courage to come and talk to me?" "i'm shy like that." "if you'll excuse me, i've got an appointment with your boss." "he's not very happy with you." "he'll be a lot unhappier when i'm finished with him." " sound sure of yourself." " whichever way you look at it, denny, he's finished." "that right?" "you might get him." "but there's plenty more like him out there." " i don't think so no one's got the balls cochran has." "you'd be surprised." "goodbye, denny." "disguising yourself with glasses won't help." "in case you haven't noticed, my brother's dead because of you." " he wouldn't kill anyone." " no, and neither would sweet little you." "glenn power. remember him?" " glenn's dead as well?" " yeah, as if you didn't know." "i didn't do this!" "but you -- you killed my brother." "if you want to hang someone, then hang yourself." "i'll tell you what, i've got a better idea why don't i order it done, eh?" "how about i have you strung up?" " i didn't say you could leave." " gavin, please -- you're not helping yourself." " that's all right, geoff, let him dig his own grave." " gavin." "the evidence says you killed steve harvey and glenn power." "you got your brother to kill john freeman for you." "i know how much he thought of you and how you were his hero" " and how he wanted you around." " this is crap." "there isn't a jury out there who won't go with what we've got." "so why don't you save us a lot of hassle and just tell me why you decided to teach these men the true meaning of respect?" "because that's what this is about, isn't it, gavin?" "you and your warped view of respect." "we found your contact lens." "it was lying exactly 3 feet and 7 inches from glenn power's outstretched and very lifeless hand." "see you in court." "sorry, i know it's late. it's just, well, you said you'd come round and you never did, and ..." " ... and i just want someone to talk to." " it's fine. i'm glad you called." "drink?" "now you're here, i don't know what to say." "what did you want to say?" "just things. nothing specific." "i'll start then." " ummm. how was your day?" " not good, not bad." " yours?" "similar." "or ... no. no, that's wrong." "it's not been good." "i'm stuck. i can't work things out, kate." "i come up with theories ......" "legitimate psychoanalysis." "i then find the person we're looking for, only to learn that i'm wrong. i thought it was the brother." "then i thought it was the warder - no, wrong again." "carol thinks i'm losing my touch. i know she doesn't want to say as much." "but i know it." "and maybe she's got a point. they've even left a mark. i still can't fathom it." "i know why!" "i just don't know why if i carry on like this, an innocent man -- innocent of these murders -- is going to spend the rest of his life in jail." "when i say "innocent," i mean guilty." "see?" "nothing makes sense." " i thought you were better than this." " obviously not." "you're going to throw the towel in, admit defeat?" " well, no." " do you see me quitting?" "i'm in a far worse place than you but do you hear me wailing about it?" "do you know why i chose you to stand in for will?" "because i knew you'd understand i knew you'd have the guts to be there for me." " what?" " you've started talking again." "then maybe you should start thinking." "hello?" "does your "wife" know you're out at this time of night?" " wife?" " typical man." "you woo us, you marry us, you've got us, you forget us." "nah, it was her cooking. she burned everything." "truth is, i went round to see her and found out i was the one who needed help." "so you came running to me." "who else?" "i'm touched." "we need to talk about gavin cochran." "too late, i've already charged him." " anyway, i'm still talking about kate." " no, that's the whole reason i'm around here." " you were meant to charge him." " i'm glad i've made someone happy." " what i mean is - signed, sealed, and delivered, tony." "she'd pat me on the back for a job well done.." "for once i didn't need you --unlike your missus." "look she needed a favor. i helped her." " you married her." " not technically." "why did she ask you?" "she's a psychologist. she knew i'd say yes." "what else does she know about you?" "if she's written a case history, i'd love to read it." "kate's in mourning and you know she is." "so stop winding me up." "i'm celebrating. i got cochran. most people drink champagne, i tease psychologists." "you got it wrong." " these people were murdered." " i think we've already established that." "these men were given life sentences." "why not kill them as well?" "someone has singled out the brothers, wants them to endure a living hell, life imprisonment for something they didn't do." "eternal damnation, carol." "gavin would know what prison would do to george." "george would spend the rest of his life screaming for his brother to come and rescue him." "knowing he couldn't would destroy gavin." "it's brilliant. it's supreme." "only it isn't because george ruined it by dying." "the killer has to know them well enough to know that this would be the ultimate punishment." "it's the best clue yet we've got to his identity.\ why can't you just trust the evidence?" "cochran doesn't fit the profile." "the man we're looking for wants to be empowered." "cochran needs no such thing." " listen to me, i caught the killer." " no. you caught the victims." "all these men were selected." "they're of an ilk. you said yourself, they were garbage: drug pushers, pimps, representatives of a world our killer despises.\ i think he's had contact with this world." "something happened to him to a hugely detrimental effect." "he may have blamed these men, but ultimately he holds gavin cochran responsible." "he's the man who made everything happen." " so why go off to his brother?" " because ... because he's family." "yeah, this is about family, carol." "this is about wiping out the cochrans." "shit." "you know, he practically told me to my face." "he thinks he's got the balls. he genuinely does." "it's denny abrams, cochran's driver." "right. i want you to forget everything we've learnt thus far." "we start from scratch, we start from this point-  namely, these men are the victims." " guv?" "i know first-hand that cochran's muscleman and driver, denny abrams, has designs on taking over when cochran goes down." "he fits the profile; he's the man we want." "go fetch." "practicing for prison?" " thanks for coming in." "anything to oblige." "i've got a list of names and places." "do you mind if i go over them with you?" " it'll be my pleasure." " don't get smart, denny." "right, the 12th of april ..." " not listening in?" " he's not our man." "what?" "carol's got it wrong.." "doc, i seriously don't need to hear this." "our killer wants revenge, not glory no offense, but you can dish out all the theories in the world." "when it comes down to it, he's just not the sick bastard with the nail bar." "absolutely." "until you understand these people have motives --deep, underlying psychological needs." "will you get carol out of there?" "we're wasting valuable time." " what are you playing at?" " we've got better things to do." "outside, you." "you've got five seconds to explain yourself." "our man went to a lot of trouble framing the cochrans." "he wouldn't then just spout cryptic desires of king of the hill, and to a policeman?" "come on, carol!" "we're dealing with a highly intelligent and precise killer." "that thug is at the other end of the evolutionary scale." "not good enough." " you'll make the same mistake you did with cochran." " then give me the evidence to back that up." "come on." "i deal with facts and circumstance." "if you want me to go along with you, stop playing in my world and start drawing me into yours." "you asked me for help." "what i'm trying to do is give it." " sorry maybe i panicked a little with the pressure of the new job,." "turning to you because i wanted to see you rather than thinking it through." "whatever." "i think i'm asking you questions that i already have the answers to and i should start relying on myself more." "i'm just helping kate out" "getting her through a tough time in her life." "who mentioned kate?" "you did." "i wanted you to see the words i chose." " in loving memory." " pretty standard." "but then there aren't words that can do will justice they don't exist" "oh, i miss him so much!" "but you know, last night was the first night i haven't dreamt about him." "i must be doing better than i thought." "gravestones." "have you even been listening?" "yeah." "but ..." " go on ... the branding,; it's as indelible as the writing on a gravestone." "you've been trying to keep will alive." "but you've come here and seen it doesn't work like that." "the writing on the headstone tells you as much." "he's telling himself that someone close to him is dead." "he's telling anyone who'll listen, in fact." "but they're not dead." "they're alive, kate." "the branding. it's that person's initial." "it's a "v."" "it stands for someone's name." "it's all right -- if you've got to go, you've got to go" "will you be all right?" "i'll be fine." "i promise." "was it easy to find the right weapon, the only one that could kill and leave the right mark?" "what was it when you were hitting the victim?" "you saw the "v"?" "was that when you realized you were beating them with your own flesh and blood?" "no, talk to me. i know you want to talk to someone, to tell them why you're doing this," "why i'm here. talk to me. you're following the police. why?" "no, not the police. i was following cochran." "so you were there when cochran gave the police the slip." "of course -- how else would i know how to use that time to kill glenn power?" "framing someone has never been easier." "how did you know cochran had been released?" "do you work at the remand center?" "did i miss you somehow?" "well, that's for you to find out." "sorry about those alibis holding up." " bet you were hoping they wouldn't." " get out." "you'll be hearing a lot of me in future." "from a eunuch like you?" "i doubt it." " looks like we're back with cochran." " unless tony comes up with something." "if you don't mind me saying, sometimes you rely on him too much." "i do mind." "your timing is perfect." "you saw an opportunity; you had to go for it." "ore than that, the opportunity to leave your signature was too hard to resist." "so let's run the message home, shall we?" "let's tell ourselves once again that "v" is dead." "let's prove it, make it unequivocal." ""v" is dead." "just take a seat. i'm sure he won't be long." "i do need to see mr. markham urgently." " that's okay." " any sign of him yet?" " no, not yet." "where's the photograph of your son?" "this is your wife." "but no son." "the son you're so proud of, the son that keeps you going." "you told carol. the son you rely on so much, but equally not willing to acknowledge him in a photograph." "why is that, geoffrey?" "what has he done to warrant that?" "you say you're proud of him, but it's all an act, isn't it?" "famous irish family pride; it isn't there." "is he dead to you, geoffrey?" "is that it?" "has he disappeared?" "maybe into a world you know he won't ever emerge from?" "cochran's world, perhaps?" "you knew when he was being released." "you knew where he was going." "you saw him give the police the slip. you knew all that." "somehow, in some way, you think cochran took your son from you." "cochran took "v."" ""v," irish, family name. need my family, my ancestry. irish "v."" "has to be irish,; they would do that." " dr. hill." " start looking." " sorry?" " under "v." try saints' names." " what about our meeting?" " we're having it." "yeah, saints' names:" "valentine, victor ... vincent. any others?" "don't look at me, look at the book." " there's a saint vincent de paul." " we'll try that first." "but he won't be called that." "it'll be vince or vin. maybe vinny." "i'm going to dial this number, and you're going to ask for vinny." "and if vinny doesn't work, try vince." "it's ringing." "hi, uh, is vince there?" "i -- i mean, vinny." "right. i see." "uh, no, no message." " he's not in." " no, he wouldn't be." "the killer's using your prejudice against gavin cochran." "clearly knows how you feel about him." "he clues he leaves are exactly what you hope to find." " irrefutable evidence." " you're not suggesting he'd have to know about police procedure." "and how we think he'd behave." " absolutely." "so it's someone close to the case." "very close he'll want to see the results of his efforts." "he'll want to be on hand to enjoy them, to make sure everything's gone according to plan." "he'll even be at the trial." "that will be his defining moment, his victory." "then later on, he'll want to see cochran locked up." "physically incarcerated he'll even arrange a visit. might only be once, but he'll want one final confirmation that cochran is guilty." ""look. there he is, do you see him?" "he's the one locked up, not me. i didn't do anything wrong." "he did." "our man's dealing with his guilt by transferring it onto cochran." "what guilt?" "these men were dealing in drugs and prostitution." "one of them   possibly steve harvey," " will have encountered "v." - "v"?" "the very first victim." "he person who inspired our killer." "the person who gave our killer his mask." "who is he, tony?" " that's not the point." " what?" "what i've just given you is pure conjecture oh, nice one, doc.you had us all going there for a minute." "there'll be evidence to back you up?" " i doubt it." " there's got to be." "there won't be one single thing. he's far too clever for that the only evidence you'll have is that there is no evidence." "that's the only thing you can get him on something that doesn't exist." "right, so let me get this straight you're asking me to forget everything i've ever learnt and go with evidence that isn't there." "so when i'm being cross-examined, i sit there and i say, "here it is, look, can you see him, your honor?" "i know everything points to gavin cochran, but it's not him;" "it's this other person who you can't even bloody see."" "that's about it, yes." " i'm not going down for this." " i can only promise to do my best." "i want the names and addresses of the jury members." "gavin, you have to stay calm." "if you keep making threats, then you're going to look like you have something to hide." " okay. but i don't have anything to hide." " i know you haven't." "believe me., i know." "it's markham." "it's geoffrey markham." " i've heard everything now." " this is a wind-up, right?" " i don't believe you." " that's part of his success." "markham -- the man spent most of his career defending slime, and he's even defending the man you reckon he's framed." "see how bewildering it is?" "how complex and impossible?" "it's a work of art" " prove it." " i can't." " if you don't, i'm going all out for cochran." " he's not your man." "i don't have any choice. you haven't given me one." "then you'll be letting markham get away with murder." "well, then, i'm sorry, i really am, but what the hell else do i do?" "we go to trial tomorrow and when they ask me to tell the truth, that's exactly what i'll do because i don't have anything else." "i just wanted to wish you luck for today." "thank you, sir." "might be an idea to open a window in here." "and, perhaps, tidy yourself up for court." "i was hoping things would look better in the morning." "sorry." "it was definitely markham?" "he knows what evidence does in a court of law." "it'll condemn." "when they question you, the only thing you can allude to is what you think you know about markham." "the defense can't provide any other suspects because there aren't any perfect, carol." "part of me won't care if cochran goes down." "until you realize markham will kill again." "terrific" "okay, here's the deal." "we get a warrant, we go to markham's, we check his house from top to bottom." "you won't find anything." " take all of his clothes and shoes for processing." "all of them. check his office, his car, everywhere." "there's got to be blood and skin from the victims." "he'll have burned everything." "he knows what evidence does, carol." "you got him your way, now let me get him mine." "he's in court all day that gives us at least eight hours, so look till your eyes bleed." "if they don't find anything, i'll need to know how else to get him." "you can't." "will you stop being so bloody sure?" "you're meant to know these people" " i'll need to think about it." " then think." "for me. please." "don't forget, we're doing this for the boss." "we want every inch covered." "you're so secure, geoffrey, so sure of yourself." "you know you can't be caught." "so how do i get to you?" "can i unsettle you?" "would that work?" "yeah, what if i did that, geoffrey?" "what if i did put pressure on you?" "what would happen?" "imagine it's you up there. it's you on trial." "can i do that to you, put pressure on a man ho can't be pressured?" "let's see, shall we?" "carol, listen to me." "i think there is a way of getting to markham." " the trial's about to start - you have to take markham by surprise." "force him out." "show him he's lost control." "show him he's not going to get what he wants." "you have to make sure cochran gets off scot-free." " how the hell do i do that?" " simple you take the witness stand and you lie." "lie, under oath?" "i'm a dci, tony. start living in the real world." "dci jordan." "carol?" "you still there?" "i swear by almighty god that the evidence that i shall give shall be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth." " anything?" " not a sausage." " you?" " no" " if you'd like, proceed." " dci jordan, you were the chief investigating officer." " that's correct. - what led you to deem mr. cochran a suspect?" " we found his wallet at the scene of the crime." " his wallet?" "it's not often that a criminal is so obliging" "lie, lie, lie." "is there a problem?" "only you're taking a long time to answer.." "he dropped his wallet and we found it." "no, that's exactly what he wants." "you're playing his game for him." "stop doing that, stop behaving like a policeman." "mr. cochran maintains that he had lost the wallet a few days prior to the murder." " that's right, he did make that claim." " and did you investigate that?" "go with me, carol. we can do this." "we can crack him. go with me!" "dci jordan." " um ... i didn't see the need - is it not a possibility that my client could have done so?" "say yes." "say yes." "say yes." "no" "doctor hill's right; there's nothing." "according to my research, there was never any forensic connection to mr. cochran." "you never found any bloodied clothes or fingerprints, hair samples, nothing. can you explain this?" "you have to change the course of things, steer it out of his control." "trust me, carol. trust me." "it's possible he used gloves, disposed of his clothing, was very careful." "but then he rather stupidly dropped his wallet." "make something happen, carol." "i suppose when you put it like that, it does seem careless." "you can get to him, you know you can." "would you say it was in keeping with mr. cochran to make silly schoolboy errors such as this?" "over the course of years that we've known mr. cochran may i remind you that you may not speak or speculate about my client's past in this room." " yes, but - say it i'd say he was a very clever and watchful person." " not the sort of person who would leave behind evidence?" " that's not the impression he gives." "i'm getting the impression that you started to doubt mr. cochran's guilt." "i'm just answering your questions." "you never stated any of this in the original investigation. why is that?" "can't you see him?" "take a look. he doesn't like it." "he's panicking, carol." "i don't know why i didn't voice that thought." "it just seemed" " seemed?" "that's hardly concrete evidence." " we had his wallet." " he couldn't provide an alibi for his whereabouts." " i think you wanted to get mr. cochran regardless." "like you said earlier, the police and he have a lot of history and you never had the means or the opportunity to do anything about it,until now." "that's your reading of the situation. it's not mine." "but you're not disagreeing ...are you?" "take the mask off." "for your son. for vinny. take it off." "tell the world what happened to him." " no further questions." " what?" " step down, please." " but i won't ask again." "don't stop now. he'll get away with it. you were right. there's nothing at markham's." "chances are, we're not going to get either of them" "dr. hill?" " it's funny how things turn out." " sorry?" "you think you know exactly how the day's going to go, and then all of the sudden ..." "it doesn't belong to you anymore." "never did think you made any sense." "you haven't won, geoffrey." "you haven't won" "i can't talk to you, dr. hill. the prosecution may still call you as a witness." "no, it doesn't matter anymore -- i hope -- come with me." " please, come with me." " excuse me." "you'll get a bonus if we pull this off." "don't get too excited. there's still a long way to go." "told them i was innocent." " oh, yeah." " come on, we're home and dry." "you just don't get it, do you?" "it's all about evidence. so what if carol jordan lost her way?" "there's still the wallet, the lack of alibi." "and now it's a life ... sentence, scum." "what did you say?" " you can't go in here." " it's all right." "it's all right." " just listen. - are you feeling all right?" " oh, 25 years i've been doing this." "worked so hard, i missed out on everything important." "being a father, a husband -- missed it all." "then when i get my promotion, when i finally make partner, turn around to embrace them, and my son's not there. he's gone." "lost to your horrendous family." "and my wife is dying of grief." "my first instinct was to kill you, but that was letting you off too easy." "i needed it to last. a lifetime." "they'll go with the evidence, gavin." "they have no choice but to condemn you." "you're going to spend the rest of your days eaten up by your own innocence." "how beautiful is that." " open the door!" " there's nothing you can do about it." "why me?" "what have i done to you?" "my wife's dead, my son's gone, and you're going to pay." "me?" "it was you that wasn't there for them." "i gave you and your kind the best years of my life, and you what did you do?" "you were unsatisfied with that; you had to take everything else." "someone!" "how does it feel, gavin?" "how are you going to spend the rest of your life knowing i've taken it?" " open the door!" " steal away, let's steal away..." " open the door!" " we have to choose to win or lose ..." " ... and i guess i win." " open the door!" "great voice, geoffrey.." "your confession." "my first instinct was to kill you, but that was letting you off too easy. i needed it to last his confession." " that'll never stand up in court." " it will, geoffrey." "and you know it will." "and we all know what evidence means, don't we?" "dad?" "are you there?" "dad?" "dad?" "don't suppose you know a good defense lawyer." "used to." " i'm sorry, carol." " asking you to lie." "sometimes i only see the theory." " i forget there's more to it than that." " such as?" "well, that's the bit i need you for." "can't even spell my name right." " what about cochran?" " we start on him." "and when we get something on him--something concrete--then we get him." "can i buy you a drink?" " actually, i've, uh -- - already got a date." " me, a date?" " i thought maybe kate." "no, not at all." "so, what are you doing now, then?" " my day job.." " day's over." " i've got to catch up - it's gone, tony." "dr. hill!" "sorry, glenn. got a date." "it's gordon."
