0:00:02 > 0:00:04I'm arresting you on suspicion of the abduction of Rachel Reid.

0:00:04 > 0:00:08- They're releasing Barry Donoghue without charge.- Another dead end.

0:00:08 > 0:00:09We keep an eye on Brian.

0:00:09 > 0:00:11If she's still alive, she's bound to get in touch with him.

0:00:11 > 0:00:14I'm just going to sit tight when all this is blown over,

0:00:14 > 0:00:16and I'm vindicated, you'll be the pariah.

0:00:16 > 0:00:17When the girls were little,

0:00:17 > 0:00:20Barbara used to take them to her sister's caravan up the coast.

0:00:20 > 0:00:21Rachel loved us.

0:00:24 > 0:00:26No-one's been in here for months.

0:01:19 > 0:01:20What?

0:01:20 > 0:01:25Police divers are searching the bay where Rachel's hoodie was found.

0:01:25 > 0:01:26They're not sending them out there

0:01:26 > 0:01:28unless they think there's a good reason.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54PHONE RINGS

0:02:04 > 0:02:07No, I said, get your dirty paws off the gizmo for God's sake.

0:02:09 > 0:02:12- Are you all right?- I'm fine.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15Good. I'm getting used to being invisible.

0:02:15 > 0:02:19- Better than being in the firing line.- That's debatable.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23OK, everybody, instant room five minutes.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31I suppose that means I work the front office, yeah, boss?

0:02:31 > 0:02:33That would be great, Brian, thanks.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38I just brought you this.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40I figured you'd be home late, you still need to eat something.

0:02:40 > 0:02:44- Thank you.- Angela mentioned Mum was here last night with Liam Reid.

0:02:44 > 0:02:46- Yeah, yeah, that's right.- Why?

0:02:46 > 0:02:48She just said she was being supportive.

0:02:49 > 0:02:51Why was she being supportive?

0:02:51 > 0:02:53I didn't even know they were that close.

0:02:53 > 0:02:56I think this conversation you need to have with your mother.

0:02:56 > 0:02:59Wait. You think something's going on between them?

0:03:00 > 0:03:01I didn't say that.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03No, you said I should have a conversation,

0:03:03 > 0:03:05which implies there's something to have a conversation about.

0:03:05 > 0:03:09OK. First of all, you know I hate it when you cross examine me.

0:03:09 > 0:03:12Second of all, I only said have the conversation because I have to be

0:03:12 > 0:03:13in a meeting in less than a minute

0:03:13 > 0:03:16and I don't speculate on the nature of the supportive relationship

0:03:16 > 0:03:19between your mother and Liam Reid. Thanks again for the pasta.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28Hey. Taken. Emily.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37Maybe I should wear a bell around my neck, warn people I'm coming.

0:03:37 > 0:03:40Oh, what did you expect, rose petals and pats on the back?

0:03:40 > 0:03:41Quiet, everybody.

0:03:45 > 0:03:47Rachel Reid has been missing for three days now,

0:03:47 > 0:03:48so every hour is crucial.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51We do not give up hope, we keep looking. Nikki.

0:03:51 > 0:03:55As you may know, Barry Donoghue was released yesterday without charge.

0:03:55 > 0:03:57We no longer have a suspect in the frame.

0:03:57 > 0:03:58Have we anything new to go on?

0:03:58 > 0:04:01Only that the last ping from her phone placed her near the beach.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03The same place where we found her hoodie.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06The Garda Water Unit are searching the coastline now.

0:04:06 > 0:04:08Today, we need all feet on the street,

0:04:08 > 0:04:11doing door-to-door, jogging people's memory.

0:04:11 > 0:04:13Somebody must have seen her either on her way to the beach

0:04:13 > 0:04:16or afterwards if she went somewhere else.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18See me for your assigned areas.

0:04:18 > 0:04:19That's it. Thanks, guys.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23PHONE RINGS

0:04:25 > 0:04:27I'll see you outside.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35I'm sorry, I'm working, I can't take personal calls.

0:04:37 > 0:04:38And I will.

0:04:40 > 0:04:41I'm not messing you about.

0:04:41 > 0:04:45I'm doing my best. I have tenants moving in next week.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51Don't be lousy, it's just one week. I swear I'll have it then.

0:04:53 > 0:04:56No, I won't. I won't let you down.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58I appreciate that, Tim, you're a gentleman.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Who was that?

0:05:00 > 0:05:02A bloody vulture, that's who.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04Something wrong?

0:05:04 > 0:05:06No, just my builder chasing some payment.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08He fixed up my rental,

0:05:08 > 0:05:10now I need some tenants and I'm back in the game.

0:05:16 > 0:05:17Thank you.

0:05:18 > 0:05:20I see you had the police divers out of this morning.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22Oh, that's just routine.

0:05:23 > 0:05:27Having a paedophile in the station, is that routine too?

0:05:27 > 0:05:29Don't bother lying. We saw him on the way in.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31Formal investigation into the allegations

0:05:31 > 0:05:33against Sergeant McGonigle will take place,

0:05:33 > 0:05:36but our priority now is to find your daughter.

0:05:36 > 0:05:37That is the most important thing.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40If it's your priority, why haven't you found her?

0:05:40 > 0:05:43I'm telling you, it's not through lack of effort. I promise you that.

0:05:43 > 0:05:45We have every available officer on this,

0:05:45 > 0:05:48out on the streets, going through CCTV footage.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52Have you given any thought to what we discussed last night?

0:05:53 > 0:05:56Do you really think it would make any difference?

0:05:56 > 0:05:57I do.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00Television appeals can be very effective.

0:06:00 > 0:06:02Even if Rachel herself doesn't see it,

0:06:02 > 0:06:04it could spur someone else on,

0:06:04 > 0:06:08someone who has seen her, served her in a coffee shop to call in.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10Yeah, I tried to write something down, but I...

0:06:10 > 0:06:12I just didn't know what to say.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14Oh, don't worry, we can help you with that.

0:06:14 > 0:06:15OK.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17If it helps.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21What about you, Mr Reid?

0:06:21 > 0:06:22Are you happy to do the press too?

0:06:25 > 0:06:28A pretty girl like you in your own flat.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30We could maybe go for a drink.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32What's your number?

0:06:32 > 0:06:34- 089.- 089.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03MUSIC PLAYS

0:07:19 > 0:07:21I know this is really difficult,

0:07:21 > 0:07:23but better to have something written down,

0:07:23 > 0:07:26so you know what you're going to say in advance.

0:07:27 > 0:07:31This is your chance to say all the things you want to say to her.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41Would it help if I did the writing?

0:07:41 > 0:07:42Yeah.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48Right. How will I start?

0:07:51 > 0:07:53I don't know.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55Come on, Dad, we have to write something.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00How about if we begin with,

0:08:00 > 0:08:05"Rachel, wherever you are, we're thinking of you,

0:08:05 > 0:08:07"we're missing you

0:08:07 > 0:08:09"and we want you to come home."

0:08:09 > 0:08:10That's good.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17Sharon, will you give us a hand here for a second?

0:08:18 > 0:08:21You don't know how to upload a photo from a phone, do you?

0:08:21 > 0:08:24For a second there, I thought it might have been work you were doing.

0:08:24 > 0:08:25What do you think?

0:08:28 > 0:08:30You're not actually going to say 'bijou'?

0:08:30 > 0:08:33What? It's just fancy for small.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36Yeah, I know what it means and if anything, it's fancy for crap.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38- Well, I like it. - Oh, no, it's priced a bit rich.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41Sure all students have big grants, rolling in it.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43If they weren't giving it to me, they'd be drinking it.

0:08:43 > 0:08:46And these are the photos I want to upload with it.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48You're using these ones?

0:08:48 > 0:08:51Well, if they're a bit sad, you can use one of those filters

0:08:51 > 0:08:52that makes everything look sunny.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55You cannot use filters, not on a property ad.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57Says who?

0:08:57 > 0:08:59Prendergast, I swear I'll take the head off you.

0:09:01 > 0:09:03Just ignore them.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06Cos there's nothing else you can do.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09Nikki's on her way down now.

0:09:09 > 0:09:12She'll handle any questions to do with the investigation.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15The journalists know not to ask, but they'll try it on anyway.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18Now, we've kept it deliberately small, only a few press,

0:09:18 > 0:09:20so it doesn't feel so intimidating.

0:09:20 > 0:09:21Are you ready?

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Dad?

0:09:34 > 0:09:36Are you OK, Liam?

0:09:36 > 0:09:39I can't sit in front of the world and read out somebody else's words.

0:09:39 > 0:09:41Please, Dad.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43I can't do this. I'm sorry.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54She insisted.

0:09:54 > 0:09:56Said I look hungry.

0:09:56 > 0:09:58See, we complement each other perfectly.

0:09:58 > 0:10:01The old ladies all like you, the young ones me.

0:10:01 > 0:10:02You got something?

0:10:02 > 0:10:05Two numbers. That's my weekend sorted.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07Seriously, Sean?

0:10:07 > 0:10:09Oh, come on, it's called multitasking.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12Read any magazine, it's a good thing.

0:10:12 > 0:10:15FIRE ALARM SOUNDS

0:10:20 > 0:10:21Hello! Anyone in there?

0:10:24 > 0:10:25Ah!

0:10:25 > 0:10:27There's a kid inside, Sean.

0:10:27 > 0:10:28Ah!

0:10:28 > 0:10:30BOY CRIES OUT

0:10:31 > 0:10:32Get you outside.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34SEAN COUGHS

0:10:34 > 0:10:35Ah!

0:10:41 > 0:10:43HE COUGHS

0:10:49 > 0:10:51ALARM STOPS

0:11:02 > 0:11:05- Hi.- Hi. I'm sorry, I didn't know who else to call.

0:11:05 > 0:11:06No, I'm glad you did,

0:11:06 > 0:11:09but I'm not sure he's going to listen to anything I have to say.

0:11:09 > 0:11:11- Where is he?- He's inside.

0:11:11 > 0:11:15OK. What would you like, carrot or stick?

0:11:15 > 0:11:17Whatever works.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20I don't understand. He's usually so strong and certain.

0:11:21 > 0:11:25That's just an act men put on. We're the strong ones.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31It's OK, it's over. It's over.

0:11:31 > 0:11:32You can put him down.

0:11:32 > 0:11:34He won't let go.

0:11:34 > 0:11:37I just checked upstairs, he's definitely home alone.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39Victor 069 to Victor Alpha base.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41- WALKIE:- 'Go ahead, Sean.' - We're at 36 Oakley Drive.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44Child home alone nearly caused a fire.

0:11:44 > 0:11:45'Is everyone all right?'

0:11:45 > 0:11:46Yeah, just a bit of smoke.

0:11:46 > 0:11:49Could you get onto Child Welfare, see what they want us to do?

0:11:50 > 0:11:52'Do you have a family name?'

0:11:52 > 0:11:55Yeah. I think it's Joanna Jenkins.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57- 'We'll check that out now.'- Roger.

0:11:57 > 0:12:01Oh, is that your phone?

0:12:01 > 0:12:03Do you have many games?

0:12:03 > 0:12:04I'm going to stink all week.

0:12:04 > 0:12:06Baking soda is good for odours.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09You'll sprinkle your uniform with it, let it sit overnight,

0:12:09 > 0:12:11then hoover it off in the morning, you'll be fine.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14Thanks. Now I can see why all the old ladies love you.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16What the hell are you doing in my house?

0:12:16 > 0:12:18What's up, darling?

0:12:18 > 0:12:20It's OK now, baby, I've got you.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23You've no right coming in here. You've got to pay for that door.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Your son nearly burned the house down.

0:12:25 > 0:12:26He tried to make himself a burger.

0:12:28 > 0:12:31I told him to stay away from the cooker. Didn't I tell you?

0:12:31 > 0:12:34- You shouldn't have left him alone. - I was only gone for ten minutes.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37I knocked on your door half an hour ago, you weren't there.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39I went to the chemist, all right? On Winbrook Road.

0:12:39 > 0:12:41I was gone half an hour, max.

0:12:41 > 0:12:45It's a cough bottle. He was up in the night, it's his chest.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47It doesn't matter. You shouldn't leave a child that age on his own.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49I know.

0:12:49 > 0:12:51But I'm here now.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53He's fine.

0:12:53 > 0:12:54Well, that's not the point.

0:12:57 > 0:12:58You're right.

0:12:58 > 0:12:59I'm sorry.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03Thanks for your help. We're good now, you can go.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06I'm sorry, we can't leave until we hear back from Child Welfare.

0:13:09 > 0:13:12We're fine. Everything's fine now, can't you tell them that?

0:13:12 > 0:13:14It's just routine, that's all.

0:13:16 > 0:13:18If there's a problem, you can come back,

0:13:18 > 0:13:21but having you waiting here now is just going to upset him.

0:13:24 > 0:13:27'Victor 069, this is Victor Alfa base.'

0:13:27 > 0:13:29Go ahead Victor Alfa base.

0:13:29 > 0:13:32'HSC wants you to bring Ned Jenkins straight to the station.'

0:13:32 > 0:13:35- 'They'll liaise with you there.' - Please. I can't.

0:13:35 > 0:13:37Don't be stupid, OK?

0:13:39 > 0:13:42Joanna!

0:13:42 > 0:13:44DOOR SLAMS

0:13:44 > 0:13:46You're not taking him. I won't let you take him.

0:13:52 > 0:13:54122 views already.

0:13:54 > 0:13:57- Seriously?- It's a seller's market.

0:13:57 > 0:13:58Wait until the open viewing,

0:13:58 > 0:14:00it'll be like something out of The Hunger Games.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03I'm not feeling compassionate landlord off you.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06The trick is not to spend too much money doing the place up,

0:14:06 > 0:14:09just enough to reflect the lifestyle.

0:14:09 > 0:14:11You could own the biggest tip known to man,

0:14:11 > 0:14:13but throw in a few cushions here and there for the ladies,

0:14:13 > 0:14:14a fruit bowl, and you're laughing.

0:14:14 > 0:14:16A few cushions for the ladies?

0:14:16 > 0:14:19Women love a scatter cushion and don't bother denying it.

0:14:22 > 0:14:23What's that smell?

0:14:23 > 0:14:26Now all I have to do is sit back and wait for the money to roll in.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28- No, can't you get that?- No.

0:14:28 > 0:14:29Oh, it's rank.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33It smells like we're sitting in a trash compactor.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40Niamh is waiting outside for you,

0:14:40 > 0:14:45praying she won't have to go into a room of a journalists alone.

0:14:45 > 0:14:46Go and do that appeal.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50By her side.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57It might be the last time I get to talk to Rachel.

0:14:57 > 0:14:59What if I make a mess of it?

0:15:02 > 0:15:04You won't.

0:15:05 > 0:15:08I don't want to...

0:15:08 > 0:15:09I don't want to get it wrong.

0:15:09 > 0:15:12I don't want to say something that might make it worse.

0:15:12 > 0:15:13If it was my child...

0:15:16 > 0:15:20..I'd just go in there and let them know how I was feeling.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23Exactly how I was feeling.

0:15:25 > 0:15:26That's all.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51Jesus.

0:15:52 > 0:15:53What's that?

0:15:54 > 0:15:56Somebody's shoe?

0:15:57 > 0:15:59It's not shoes.

0:16:06 > 0:16:08Is that coming from your locker?

0:16:16 > 0:16:19SHE GASPS, OTHERS LAUGH

0:16:23 > 0:16:25Don't let them see you're upset, that's what they want.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31I'll take this out to the bins.

0:16:31 > 0:16:34You follow me out in a couple of seconds, head held high. Yeah?

0:16:47 > 0:16:49- Joanna?- This ridiculous.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51Victor 069 to Victor Alfa base.

0:16:51 > 0:16:54Can you advise us if Joanna Jenkins is considered a threat to her son.

0:16:54 > 0:16:56I'd never hurt Ned!

0:16:56 > 0:16:59Then why don't you come out and we can discuss it, OK?

0:16:59 > 0:17:02- Only if you promise you won't take Ned.- We can't do that, Joanna.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04But I promise we will discuss it.

0:17:04 > 0:17:07- WALKIE:- 'Victor Alfa base to Victor 069.

0:18:43 > 0:18:44Just come home, OK?

0:18:46 > 0:18:48That's all I...

0:19:01 > 0:19:05..since you've been gone, throughout everything -

0:19:05 > 0:19:08the worry, the anger and feeling hopeless -

0:19:08 > 0:19:12one question keeps going round and round in my head.

0:19:12 > 0:19:15What would your mother do if she was still alive?

0:19:15 > 0:19:18She'd know how to fix it, know what to say.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21In fact, she'd never have let this happen in the first place.

0:19:21 > 0:19:24I have been lost without her.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27Lost since the moment she died.

0:19:27 > 0:19:30And as difficult as it's been for me,

0:19:30 > 0:19:34I can't imagine how awful it's been for you.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38And I'm sorry that I haven't been there for you

0:19:38 > 0:19:40as much as I know I should have.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44And I'm sorry, Rachel.

0:19:44 > 0:19:45So sorry.

0:19:46 > 0:19:49But things are going to get better.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54- James said you've been very good to Liam during all this.- Did he?

0:20:54 > 0:20:58Yeah, he said you printed the missing posters and offered

0:20:58 > 0:21:01the reward for any information that helps get Rachel back.

0:21:47 > 0:21:49What is social services going to think when they hear you

0:21:49 > 0:21:52locked yourself and Ned in the bathroom?

0:21:52 > 0:21:54It won't help your case, Joanna, you know that.

0:21:54 > 0:21:58- I was only going to the chemist. I was trying to help.- I know that.

0:21:58 > 0:22:01I know that. Why don't you come out and we can have a talk?

0:22:08 > 0:22:10If you come out now,

0:22:10 > 0:22:13I won't put in my report that you locked yourself in the bathroom.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40It is. It is, it's...

0:24:40 > 0:24:43I know it's disgusting. It's disgusting the lies people spread.

0:25:39 > 0:25:40I love you, sweetheart.

0:25:48 > 0:25:50She said she only went to the chemist cos Ned was sick.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52She was getting him cough medicine.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55Well, get her ready. Social services are coming to take Ned.

0:25:55 > 0:25:58- And that's decided? That's definite? - Well, it seems Joanna

0:25:58 > 0:26:00has quite a history of substance abuse and neglect.

0:26:00 > 0:26:01She seemed fine to me.

0:26:01 > 0:26:05The house was clean. Except for the fire, Ned looks well looked after.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08- Except for the fire.- I didn't get a feeling Ned was being neglected.

0:26:08 > 0:26:11- It's out of our hands now. - Can we talk to social services?

0:26:11 > 0:26:13They've made the decision. She can always appeal.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17You better go and tell her what's happening.

0:26:17 > 0:26:19Give her a chance to say goodbye to Ned.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24We need to take Ned.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34You said we'd just talk to social services, that's what you said.

0:26:34 > 0:26:37- They made the decision, Joanna. - You can appeal.- When?

0:26:37 > 0:26:39You have to talk to social services about that.

0:26:39 > 0:26:40It's not fair.

0:26:40 > 0:26:42I haven't done a thing wrong in six months.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45I've been to all their meetings, done everything they asked...

0:26:45 > 0:26:48- I'm sure that will be taken into consideration.- It's not right.

0:26:48 > 0:26:49You did leave Ned alone.

0:26:49 > 0:26:52Only because I was going to the chemist for him.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54And we'll put that into our report.

0:26:54 > 0:26:55We'll make sure they know.

0:26:57 > 0:26:58We have to take Ned.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00If you want to say goodbye...

0:27:12 > 0:27:13Hey, Neddie.

0:27:15 > 0:27:18You're going on a big adventure with these two policemen, OK?

0:27:18 > 0:27:20- Don't want to go.- I know.

0:27:20 > 0:27:22But it'll be fine.

0:27:22 > 0:27:26- And you're a good boy, aren't you, Ned?- Mummy, please.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28I'll see you really, really soon, OK, buddy?

0:27:31 > 0:27:33- OK, come on, Ned.- Go on.

0:27:34 > 0:27:36I love you, baby.

0:28:04 > 0:28:06but it turns out it was the day before she went missing.

0:28:06 > 0:28:10- And you got that statement from her? - Absolutely, skip.- Well, log it.

0:28:10 > 0:28:13We need to record our response to every call received.

0:28:13 > 0:28:14- Any calls since the appeal?- A few.

0:28:14 > 0:28:18It's going out on all the bulletins, so there should be plenty more.

0:28:18 > 0:28:20Someone's bound to have seen her.

0:28:33 > 0:28:35Just wanted to say thank you

0:28:35 > 0:28:37for giving me the kick in the arse I needed this morning.

0:28:37 > 0:28:38I'm glad I could help.

0:28:40 > 0:28:44We got a few calls after, but...nothing from Rachel.

0:28:44 > 0:28:47Well, I'm sure when she sees it, she'll get in touch.

0:28:48 > 0:28:50It certainly was heartfelt.

0:28:51 > 0:28:54Yeah. It made me realise how difficult it was for Rachel,

0:28:54 > 0:28:57especially since Barbara died,

0:28:57 > 0:29:00and that I haven't been there for as much as I should've been.

0:29:00 > 0:29:03Well, I'm sure you won't make that mistake again.

0:31:23 > 0:31:26I mean, the one reason they're taking Ned off her is because of

0:31:26 > 0:31:28what she did in the past. It's not right.

0:31:28 > 0:31:30Well, do you want to make that judgment call?

0:33:37 > 0:33:40- I was going to call and let them know that I'm fine.- No, no.

0:33:40 > 0:33:42You get in touch with no-one.

0:33:42 > 0:33:44I'll try to work out how to get out of this mess.

0:33:44 > 0:33:47Well, you're here now, so that's all that matters.

0:33:48 > 0:33:50Were you worried about me?

0:33:50 > 0:33:52What?

0:33:52 > 0:33:53Did you wonder where I was?

0:33:55 > 0:33:57You don't get this, do you?

0:33:57 > 0:34:00You made everything...a million times worse.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07I did it for us. I couldn't face going home.

0:34:07 > 0:34:10I just couldn't handle it any more. I just... I couldn't cope.

0:34:10 > 0:34:14Look, Rachel, my whole life, it's on the line here.

0:34:16 > 0:34:18My job, my family.

0:34:19 > 0:34:21I could go to prison.

0:34:22 > 0:34:23How about we go to France?

0:34:25 > 0:34:27- What?- Cos we'll be legal there.

0:34:29 > 0:34:32I'm not going to France with you, Rachel.

0:34:34 > 0:34:36Look, we can't be together.

0:34:36 > 0:34:39- Not now, not after what you've done. - Don't say that.

0:34:39 > 0:34:42What did you think, we were going to ride off into the sunset?

0:34:42 > 0:34:44- That's not going to happen. - You love me, you said so.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46- You said that you'd leave your wife for me.- Don't.

0:34:47 > 0:34:49Well, if we can't be together...

0:34:50 > 0:34:53..then I don't know what I'm going to do.

0:35:03 > 0:35:05Rachel, Rachel, Rachel...

0:35:11 > 0:35:12Hm.

0:35:25 > 0:35:27You're still my girl, yeah?

0:35:27 > 0:35:28Mm-hm.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33- But even if you wanted to tell someone...- I wouldn't.

0:35:33 > 0:35:34Yeah, but even if you did...

0:35:36 > 0:35:37..no-one's going to believe you over me.

0:35:39 > 0:35:43- I know, cos you're a police officer and I'm just a schoolgirl.- Yeah.

0:35:43 > 0:35:45Yeah.

0:35:46 > 0:35:50And the last thing I want to have to do is to tell your dad about

0:35:50 > 0:35:53how you came onto me,

0:35:53 > 0:35:56wearing all those tarty clothes.

0:35:56 > 0:35:58- You said you liked how I dress. - I do.

0:35:59 > 0:36:01But it doesn't matter what I think.

0:36:01 > 0:36:03It's what everybody else thinks.

0:36:04 > 0:36:09Now, how is your dad going to feel knowing that you behaved like that?

0:36:12 > 0:36:13How about your friends?

0:36:19 > 0:36:21Who was there for you when you lost your mum?

0:36:21 > 0:36:22You were.

0:36:24 > 0:36:26And this is how you repay me?

0:36:26 > 0:36:30- (I'm sorry.)- By putting me in this situation?- I'm sorry!

0:36:31 > 0:36:33- I'm really, really sorry.- Look.

0:36:33 > 0:36:35You should have thought about that, Rachel,

0:36:35 > 0:36:38before you pulled your little disappearing act.

0:36:42 > 0:36:43There's nothing I can do.

0:36:46 > 0:36:48You see that, don't you?

0:36:55 > 0:36:58- You see McGonigle's gone home early? - So?

0:36:59 > 0:37:02How many times have you ever seen him miss work or go home early?

0:37:03 > 0:37:06- Never.- Exactly.

0:37:06 > 0:37:07Something's up.

0:37:08 > 0:37:11Here we are chasing up every phone call and no-one's keeping an

0:37:11 > 0:37:14eye on Brian. If anyone's going to lead us to Rachel, it's him.

0:37:14 > 0:37:16Hey, Paudge.

0:37:16 > 0:37:19A few of us are going for pints later, if you fancy.

0:37:20 > 0:37:22You're pathetic.

0:37:24 > 0:37:25You're a stupid bitch.

0:37:25 > 0:37:27- What did you say?- You heard me.

0:37:27 > 0:37:30- Enough. Sean, come...- No.- Yeah, just shove it, Sean.- You haven't a clue.

0:37:30 > 0:37:33- I know Brian's innocent. - You better watch what you say.

0:37:33 > 0:37:35- You're going to grass on me too? - Grow up!

0:37:36 > 0:37:38You two, out in the car now.

0:37:41 > 0:37:44Brian's a better cop than you'll ever be.

0:37:44 > 0:37:47OK, let's go over this one more time.

0:37:47 > 0:37:50I get up early and I get home by seven and I tell my dad I

0:37:50 > 0:37:52just needed to be on my own.

0:37:52 > 0:37:54- And?- And I'm sorry for any upset I caused.

0:37:54 > 0:37:56And then what do you do?

0:37:56 > 0:37:57Stick to my story no matter what.

0:37:58 > 0:38:00Good.

0:38:01 > 0:38:02You'll do just fine.

0:38:04 > 0:38:06Now, don't let me down.

0:38:06 > 0:38:08- I'm relying on you. - I won't, I promise.

0:38:09 > 0:38:11That's my girl.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14So when will I see you?

0:38:14 > 0:38:16HE SIGHS

0:38:16 > 0:38:20You won't, this is what we've been talking about.

0:38:20 > 0:38:23But when this has all blown over and I'm back in school?

0:38:23 > 0:38:24You have to stay away from me.

0:38:24 > 0:38:26You understand?

0:38:28 > 0:38:30- SOBS:- But I love you!

0:38:35 > 0:38:36Rachel...

0:38:38 > 0:38:39It's over.

0:38:41 > 0:38:43There's no way back from this.

0:38:43 > 0:38:46There has to be. Please, Brian, I'll do anything.

0:38:47 > 0:38:51Look, look, I wanted to be with you, I did,

0:38:51 > 0:38:53but you ruined it

0:38:53 > 0:38:56the minute you didn't come home.

0:39:00 > 0:39:02That's it. It's your fault.

0:39:04 > 0:39:06And you've got to put it right.

0:39:07 > 0:39:08You owe me.
