Episode 2 Cuffs

You can't catch me! Won't catch me!

110. Still elevated.

Hardly surprising, what you've been through.

No.

You know, there can be a lot of side effects - not just physical.

Anxiety.

Agitation.

Dislocation.

A sense of unreality.

Ladies.

Don't let him get off the end.

I can't believe I did that.

To Jake!

LINO CHUCKLES Of all people.

Get down on the ground.

On the ground, now!

HE CHUCKLES

How are you? Yeah...

Get down on the ground, mate.

I'll get down on the ground. I'll get...

Ooh, a clean-shaven officer.

That's what I like.

HE CHUCKLES

How? Explain to me how this happened.

We were in pursuit.

Suspected drug dealer.

He was high, sir.

Completely off his face. Uncontrollable.

I'm a Taser officer. I need you to put that down.

"I'm a Taser officer. I need you to put that down."

If you don't put that down, I'm authorised to shoot you.

Put that down now.

You're not going to shoot me.

'The suspect was brandishing a weapon.

'Donna was the Taser officer.

'As far as I'm concerned, she followed all correct protocols...'

I'm going to... Taser! Taser! Taser!

HE GROANS

Don't move. Stay on the ground.

You shot me!

'What happened next was entirely unpredictable.'

Sorry to interrupt, sir.

There's been a bit of an incident. on the pier. It's Jake.

Stay down. I'm warning you. Just stay down.

No, wait!

THEY GROAN

Oh!

Hey!

You all right? Sorry.

I shouldn't have jumped in.

No need to apologise, mate. She loved it.

Yeah, well, it's not every day you get to shoot the boss's son.

Trust me - you're going to be the talk of the division.

You're a legend! LINO CHUCKLES

What? Come on!

Just stop!

SIREN WAILS

I have a jewellery box in my bedroom.

And the other one must've gone up there

while I was in the garden with the boy...

looking for his dog.

Yeah, I'm not sure there was a dog.

But he had a lead - a red lead in his hand.

I-I saw it.

Doesn't mean there was a dog.

Maybe he just said that to get you out the house

while his friend went upstairs.

Mrs Simpson...

Oh, Tilly, dear.

Tilly. Er, did you notice anything about the boys?

Clothes? Height?

Er...I don't know. I didn't really...

Oh! They had a motorbike.

Younger one had long hair and the other had a red T-shirt.

I-I can't believe I let them in.

CLOCK CHIMES

HE GROANS HAPPILY

Bene! Right, OK, we'll get on to local inquiries...

Is that a hot-water crust?

You know your pastry.

My nonna makes a rabbit pie - pasticcio di coniglio -

almost as good as yours.

Donna?

Vegetarian. Oh.

Yeah. Yeah, we'll see if anyone saw anything.

My Bill.

He'd have known how to deal with those boys.

We were married for 50 years.

On the market.

OK. Thanks.

Right. CSI will be here within half an hour, so we'll just hang on.

Back away! Stay back.

Stay back. Come on! Come on!

HE EXHALES LOUDLY

And we're going to keep you here, pending further forensic analysis

on the substances we found on you, OK?

Can't exactly say how long.

The time...

Pete, you want to listen to me?

The time and my consciousness are one...

Blocked.

But you hold the key that unlocks your own enlightenment.

I'm your trip guide.

Your psychic travel agent.

HE CHUCKLES

Excellent. Thank you very much.

And we'll come and sort out those security measures for you, OK?

It will be a uniformed officer

but you make sure you check his ID before you let him in.

Yes. You're very kind.

Tilly, Control have just told me

this is the third time you've been burgled.

Yes. Yes, I think so.

You ever thought about moving somewhere

with a bit more support, Tilly?

Sheltered accommodation or...

You sound like Martha, my daughter.

Always on about bungalow... Basingstoke...

You're not keen, then?

I've lived off this land all my life.

Two stupid little boys won't scare me off.

You'll have to carry me out, feet first.

All right, Tilly.

Oh!

I nearly forgot...

(Be nice.)

SHE MOUTHS

(You're not...) FOOTSTEPS APPROACH

There you are.

Martha made it for me.

It's a record - my jewellery.

I'll show you what's missing.

That'll be really useful, Tilly. We'll make sure this gets to CID.

It's not for dint of trying.

She's all fallopians and fertility windows.

But what about me, eh?

Oh, I'm just expected to perform,

on demand.

A...gigolo.

Carl... Mm?

Do you ever feel, like...

..blocked?

Bran flakes, every time.

No, just, you know, the...

Your conscious...ness...

You all right?

No.

RYAN: You froze.

I didn't.

So, why didn't you jump in, then?

Well, I tried that on the pier, didn't I? Nearly got fried.

Anyway, I-I was keeping a reactionary gap.

You know, a distance between me and...

BOTH: The violent offender.

Yeah, I know the theory. It doesn't really work in practice, though, does it?

By the time you get your head out the textbook, they've smashed each other's faces in.

What were they fighting about, anyway?

JAKE CHUCKLES

Your son's been arrested for possession with intent to supply

and I have written authority to search this address for evidence.

Any questions?

Peter wouldn't be involved in all this.

He's a student.

He is doing his PhD.

Oh, in what?

Pure and applied chemistry.

He's always been so very bright.

Even at primary school, they noticed him. G and T.

Sorry? "Gifted and talented".

My husband used to call him our little inventor.

Always beavering away in the garage.

PHONE LINE RINGS OUT

I have to see you...

..tonight.

No, I don't think that's possible.

It's not an operational imperative.

Could you bring it up at the next SMT?

Mm.

You can go if you need to.

I could pop back in after dinner, if you're sure.

A-ha.

Boss. Sir.

Quick request before you head out.

For those of you who don't know, this is Peter Foyles,

also known as Red Pete. He's an alleged drug dealer.

Now, I have him in custody and we're building a case while we wait for the results from the drugs lab.

In the meantime, can you ask around whether people on the street

know him and what he's selling? Thank you.

Did I really sound like that? Yeah, you did.

Oh, and if you do seize any bags

similar to the ones he's been manufacturing, just be careful,

as ideally I want to take fingerprints

to try and connect him to the drugs supply. Thanks a lot. Cheers.

Let's do it. Come on.

One for the road?

Take mine. Go on.

Not two!

Cheers, Jake. Are you going to do this once a week?

Yeah, yeah. No worries.

They giving you a hard time?

Bit of banter. It's fine.

I, er, heard you found your mum last night.

Yeah. She was in a bit of a state.

Mm. Yeah. Work called. She said it was all right for me to go.

She would say that, wouldn't she?

You know what she's like - brave face.

I think we should talk to the doctor

about getting her some different anti-emetics... I'm onto that.

Look, it's brilliant

that you've come back home.

That you're there for her.

Means a lot to her.

To both of us.

That, however...

..is shocking.

Landlord reckoned he came in about midnight.

Paid in cash.

On his own?

No. With a lady.

She left by herself around two hours later.

No wallet? Car keys?

Nothing.

Put the call in to the MPLO. See if anyone's reported him missing.

Sand... Look, I can't guarantee I'll be back,

but I'll be home as soon as I can.

Sand...

Babe, listen... I can't make any promises - you know that -

but some fatty's died in the saddle and I'm stuck here with the boss.

He was trying to make her feel sorry for him.

Oh, great plan(!)

Except she called an ambulance,

and he didn't know when to stop pretending.

Probably just before they nailed down the coffin lid.

explaining why they weren't needed, and sent my apologies to the FME...
