0:00:21 > 0:00:22Craig?
0:00:22 > 0:00:26Yeah, it's DCI Donald. He's a decent man, Gina.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29Conor, please come back inside!
0:00:29 > 0:00:33Don't tell any more lies, tell them the truth about you and Leyla.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35I hate you!
0:00:36 > 0:00:38You...you can't suspend me.
0:00:38 > 0:00:43You just admitted to beating up Aiden Bell, I think I can.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45You set me up.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47Aiden Bell was your mistake.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50It was always coming back to haunt you.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52OK, we're done here.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55- You screwed me over! - Get him out of my station.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41DC Cooper?
0:01:47 > 0:01:51So...you're a lucky man.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56You won't be going on trial.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59The Fiscal's thrown out both the assault and the corruption charges.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01On what grounds?
0:02:01 > 0:02:05Seems there's not enough evidence to secure a conviction.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08- You'll still have to face an internal disciplinary.- Of course.
0:02:08 > 0:02:12Where you'll be able to tell your side of things.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14The hearing will take place tomorrow.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16Unless you have an objection.
0:02:16 > 0:02:20No. The sooner I can get it over with, the sooner I can come back.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Not necessarily.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25You could still be sacked for the assault alone.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Surely that's not likely if the Fiscal can't find enough to prosecute.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31The panel doesn't need as much evidence as a court of law.
0:02:31 > 0:02:35- Who's on the panel?- Myself and a colleague from Central Scotland.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38What about the DCI?
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Will that make a difference to what you have to say?
0:02:41 > 0:02:43'Course not.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46Glad to hear it because unless you give a good account of yourself,
0:02:46 > 0:02:49your career is still very much on the line.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Preparation is key.
0:02:58 > 0:03:02You need to be on your toes ready for whatever they throw at you.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05How about we go through your statements after dinner?
0:03:05 > 0:03:07Yeah, that'd be helpful.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Husband! I'm home.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Dad's staying another night.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19Right... Good. Is there a problem with your leg?
0:03:19 > 0:03:22No, the big boot came off fine. Good as new.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24My disciplinary's going ahead tomorrow.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27So I'm sticking around to give some free legal advice.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30I thought you had to hear back from the court first?
0:03:30 > 0:03:33Case dropped. Just as I said it would be.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37Well, that's brilliant news. Isn't it? I wish I'd known,
0:03:37 > 0:03:38I could've brought in some fizz.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40I'm a long way off celebrating yet.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43The hearing will be an ordeal in itself.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47I brought pizza. But I don't know if there'll be enough for three.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- Dad's bought steak.- Nice.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02- Don't.- What?- Sulk.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05You know I've been worried sick you might end up in the dock.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08The least you could've done is let me know you were off the hook.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10- You know now. - Aye, right after your da.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12PHONE RINGS
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Hello?
0:04:15 > 0:04:17What do YOU want?
0:04:19 > 0:04:20OK.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24- Where are you going?! - Won't be long.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38- Cole's giving you no time to prepare.- I've told her it's fine.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42- I want it over and done with. - She's out to wrong-foot you.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45- What do you care? - You're still on my team.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47When it suits.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50Who do you think got the Fiscal on side?
0:04:53 > 0:04:55How on earth did you manage that?
0:04:55 > 0:04:59All that matters now is getting Cole off your back.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02It's you she's really wants.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04You beat up Aiden Bell all on your own.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08Cole will happily toss you out for that.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11- But I can make it disappear.- How?
0:05:13 > 0:05:16I sorted Aiden before. I will again.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18And why would you do that?
0:05:18 > 0:05:21Naturally, I'd want something in return.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24I'll get rid of Bell, you just confess to the rest.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31OPERA PLAYS QUIETLY
0:05:40 > 0:05:43I hope I'm not inconveniencing you staying another night.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45'Course not.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49I'm glad we have a moment alone.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53There's something I've been meaning to say.
0:05:53 > 0:05:57Aye, OK, you got me. Finally, opera's moving me to tears.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02I owe you an apology.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06I haven't given you much of a chance, have I?
0:06:08 > 0:06:12Despite my...reservations about your relationship,
0:06:12 > 0:06:15you seem very committed to my son.
0:06:15 > 0:06:16What's brought this on?
0:06:16 > 0:06:20If he does lose his job, he'll need a lot of support.
0:06:20 > 0:06:24But the case isnae going to court. How bad can the disciplinary be?
0:06:24 > 0:06:28The Superintendent's determined to ensure her nick is beyond reproach.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31She could want to make an example of Will.
0:06:38 > 0:06:42I love Will. And I WILL stick by him.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45I hope you mean it, Robbie.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Tomorrow is going to be tough for Will.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51You need to stick by him, no matter what.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Why should I trust you?
0:07:01 > 0:07:04You're the one that grassed me up to Cole in the first place.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06You're guilty of a serious assault. You've no option.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09Who in their right mind confesses to corruption?
0:07:09 > 0:07:12Cole will not stop until she gets to the bottom of this.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Until then, the spotlight is on all of us.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17I think you want me to take the rap, plain and simple.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20- You'll get your rewards. - What, in the dole queue(?)
0:07:20 > 0:07:22You'll be juggling paperclips for a while,
0:07:22 > 0:07:24but then you'll get your pick of the cases.
0:07:24 > 0:07:28Give it a couple months, I'll be recommending you for promotion.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30It's not just Cole I have to convince.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32There'll be another superintendent on the panel.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34Yeah, and me.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38I'll be there fighting your corner all the way.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42Cole thinks you're in on the laddering.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45Yeah, and your confession will convince her otherwise.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48So you get off scot-free, and I'm branded the villain.
0:07:48 > 0:07:52You lost your halo when you got handy with your fists - again.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54At least I'm not in bed with the local gangster!
0:07:54 > 0:07:57Look, do things my way, you get to keep to your job -
0:07:57 > 0:08:00or you can take the high ground and get thrown out on your ear.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02The choice is yours.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Eileen, how's Stuart doing?
0:08:22 > 0:08:25Yeah, yeah, he's back to bossing us around.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Good man! He's got over his wee adventure, then?
0:08:28 > 0:08:30I hope so. Do you fancy a drink?
0:08:30 > 0:08:34Kelly and I were just going across to the Ship...
0:08:34 > 0:08:37I was nearly out of my mind with worry when Stuart went missing.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39I just wanted to say thank you...
0:08:39 > 0:08:42No need. It's all part of the service.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45Maybe I could join you later. I've got some business I need to see to first.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48Yeah, sure, no problem. See you later then...maybe.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Is there something going on between you and him?
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Of course not. He's just a nice guy, that's all.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09Hi, Liz.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16- How are you and Malcolm? - We're fine, thank you.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Look, I'm just here for my blood pressure pills.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32Actually there's a note here.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35Dr Stubbs would like to see you for a check up.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37It's a repeat prescription!
0:09:37 > 0:09:40Yeah, but every so often the doctor needs to make sure the dosage
0:09:40 > 0:09:41is still appropriate.
0:09:41 > 0:09:46You're not usually such a stickler for the rules, apparently.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50And what's that supposed to mean?
0:09:51 > 0:09:56Gabriel wasn't the one married with a family.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59Right, so I'm the bad one, am I?!
0:10:02 > 0:10:03What's the problem?
0:10:03 > 0:10:07I came in here for some help with my blood pressure.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09Not to have it raised it sky-high!
0:10:09 > 0:10:12She's insisting on a repeat prescription.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15Liz, why don't you pop into my room,
0:10:15 > 0:10:17and I'll be with you in just a moment?
0:10:19 > 0:10:21Hey-ho.
0:10:26 > 0:10:27What's all that about?
0:10:27 > 0:10:31I was trying to help but then she made a remark about...
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Your affair with her lodger?
0:10:36 > 0:10:40Look, I'm the last one to judge but whatever the provocation,
0:10:40 > 0:10:44you do not lose your rag in my reception, OK?
0:10:44 > 0:10:45Sorry.
0:10:47 > 0:10:52Kicking off, losing control. We've been here before, haven't we?
0:10:54 > 0:10:58As long as I've got my job here and my family to go home to, I'm fine.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22- I was about to send out a search party.- You OK?
0:11:22 > 0:11:25Sorry, the DCI wanted to chat about the hearing.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28- Will he be on the panel? - I believe so.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32- Does he think you'll get off? - How can HE know?
0:11:32 > 0:11:36The panel will be led by Superintendent Cole. She'll have the casting vote.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39I don't get it. The court's thrown this case out.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42Surely the hearing's just a formality?
0:11:42 > 0:11:46- Are they calling any witnesses? - Aiden Bell.
0:11:47 > 0:11:52- Who's Aiden Bell? - He's the guy who claims Will assaulted him.
0:11:52 > 0:11:58- And no doubt has a big, fat medical file on his side.- Dad!
0:11:58 > 0:12:00I thought you two shared everything.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06Is dinner ready? I'm starving.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Why is this guy saying that you attacked him?
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Robbie, can we just have a nice dinner and forget about it?
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Does that mean you did?
0:12:20 > 0:12:22Why do you always forget to put the stopper on the bottle?
0:12:22 > 0:12:25Everything you do, you always make a mess!
0:12:30 > 0:12:31Conor!
0:12:31 > 0:12:33Tea's ready!
0:12:37 > 0:12:40If he sulks up there much longer, him and his crutches'll take root.
0:12:40 > 0:12:45Sorry, it's been an unbelievably dull day.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48No problem.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50Would you go and get him?
0:12:50 > 0:12:52There's no point.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55I know he's upset but this has gone on long enough.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57- It's not my fault, is it? - Where are YOU going?
0:12:57 > 0:12:59My room!
0:13:16 > 0:13:19DCI reckons he can make the assault charge disappear.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22He wouldn't offer if it couldn't be done.
0:13:23 > 0:13:27I don't know if I can trust him. It's just not right, is it?
0:13:27 > 0:13:31Is it right that Aiden Bell got away with assaulting me?
0:13:31 > 0:13:32No, it is not.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41What I did to him was no better.
0:13:41 > 0:13:45Will - that lad is a complete waste of space.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48You spend your life serving the community.
0:13:48 > 0:13:52If the DCI can pull a few strings then let him.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54- What d'you mean "strings"? - Don't worry about it.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56Come on, I want to know.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58If your boss can lean on Aiden Bell, let him do it.
0:13:58 > 0:13:59Dad, let's leave it!
0:13:59 > 0:14:03You wouldn't be in this situation if it weren't for that toerag.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06I'm confused. Why would Donald help?
0:14:08 > 0:14:11He wants me to admit fudging the clear-up rates.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14It was his scam, but it made us all look good.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17Don't tell me you went along with it?
0:14:17 > 0:14:20CID's under constant pressure to meet targets.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22But what good does it do to make stuff up?
0:14:22 > 0:14:24Sometimes you have to think of the bigger picture.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27You're meant to be taking your sergeant's exams.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29We are thinking of starting a family.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31- How could you put all that at risk? - I don't have a choice!
0:14:31 > 0:14:35Will must do whatever it takes to keep his job.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38So what d'you get for corruption? A gold star(?)
0:14:38 > 0:14:41- A caution - hopefully. - Which will soon be forgotten.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46- Not by me.- Don't be pathetic, boy!
0:14:46 > 0:14:50This way you can pick up your career like nothing ever happened.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52He'll know he went against his conscience.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55You won't be able to live with that, will you?
0:15:11 > 0:15:14Aiden, how's it going?
0:15:14 > 0:15:16What you doing, slumming it round here?
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Been a while since we had a catch-up.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21I'm down your way tomorrow as it goes.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23I was going to pop in and say hi.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26I think Superintendent Cole has a soft spot for you,
0:15:26 > 0:15:28- the amount of times she's hauled you in.- Aye.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Can't wait to tell her about all the bent cops on her patch.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33Why would you want to do that?
0:15:33 > 0:15:36Civic duty. I'm on the straight and narrow now.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38With your record, you'll be back in cuffs in no time.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40You can't help yourself, Aiden.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42What will the superintendent do you for then?
0:15:42 > 0:15:46I mean it. Got myself sorted. I've got a girlfriend now.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50- Plenty to lose, then. - You better not go anywhere near her.
0:15:50 > 0:15:55As if. I'll be too busy fitting you up for every unsolved crime this side of the city.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57What have I ever done to you?!
0:15:57 > 0:16:00It's more a case of what you CAN do for me.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03See tomorrow when you're down the nick in your cheap suit
0:16:03 > 0:16:06and your shiny shoes? DC Cooper came to you in self-defence.
0:16:06 > 0:16:10- All right?- That's no' what happened. - It is now.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20Dad, you made me jump.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23(No-one asked that thug to break in and attack me.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26(All you did was get me the justice the court couldn't provide.)
0:16:26 > 0:16:30- I took it too far. - You taught that boy a much bigger lesson than he'd ever
0:16:30 > 0:16:32learn in some cushy jail.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35We should've tried to get him through the courts.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38Will - you can't listen to Robbie! What does Robbie know?
0:16:38 > 0:16:41I didn't join the police for this, Dad.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44Sometimes the law isn't on the side of common sense.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48You sound just like the DCI.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51He's putting his neck on the line to help you.
0:16:51 > 0:16:55Dad, I'm tired of all this.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59I just want a clean slate.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01What's that supposed to mean?
0:17:01 > 0:17:06I'm going to state the facts, hope for leniency.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08Are you completely stupid?
0:17:10 > 0:17:15You always do this. Over and over. Ever since you were a child.
0:17:15 > 0:17:22- What? - Wimp out. And let yourself down.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45So...what's going on? What's he been saying?
0:17:46 > 0:17:49- Will?- Just, just keep out of it.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52Aye, cos the law's too complicated for the likes me(!)
0:17:52 > 0:17:54I can't believe you're tempted to lie.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56You're going to get found out!
0:17:56 > 0:17:59Just shut up, shut up! Why do you always have to interfere?
0:17:59 > 0:18:02Over and over again, you say completely the wrong thing.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05Like you're deliberately trying to wind me up.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Are you such a child you can't control what you say?
0:18:10 > 0:18:12God!
0:18:18 > 0:18:21What's this - the nightshift?
0:18:21 > 0:18:23I hear your pal's got a big day tomorrow.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Got everything under control?
0:18:25 > 0:18:28- Of course. - Because if Cooper was to go down,
0:18:28 > 0:18:31he might be tempted to take you and your pension wi' him.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34- He's going nowhere.- Good. We don't want anybody shining
0:18:34 > 0:18:36a light on our wee arrangement now, do we?
0:18:43 > 0:18:47Tell me to go if you want, I know it's late.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49I just saw the light was still on.
0:18:49 > 0:18:53I was just finishing up some work.
0:18:53 > 0:18:57I just felt bad because I said I'd maybe see you at the Ship.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59Didn't matter.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02- I had something to sort out. - Nothing too serious, I hope.
0:19:02 > 0:19:06Let's just say I could use that drink. And some decent company.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09The thing is though, work can take over your life
0:20:09 > 0:20:12- if you're not careful. - You've got Stuart.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14He certainly keeps you on your toes.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20No, no, not for me, thanks.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24Sorry, I'll finish this and go.
0:20:24 > 0:20:25No, it's not that...
0:20:27 > 0:20:29Do you think this wine tastes OK?
0:20:29 > 0:20:33- I did think it was a bit... - Like paint stripper?
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Gina's got a bottle of Shiraz through there.
0:20:37 > 0:20:41No, I'll take it back and get something different.
0:20:41 > 0:20:46- No, no, no. Taste this. - Won't Gina mind?
0:20:46 > 0:20:49Oh, it's been gathering dust.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58- You try that.- Thank you.
0:21:02 > 0:21:06Mm, that's more like it. What shall we drink to?
0:21:12 > 0:21:14Craig, you're a really nice guy...
0:21:14 > 0:21:16That sounds like a brush-off.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18No, no, it's not at all...
0:21:18 > 0:21:21It's the last guy I was involved with...
0:21:21 > 0:21:23it was a bit of a disaster.
0:21:23 > 0:21:27Things have been really difficult with my dad's illness...
0:21:27 > 0:21:29Eileen, I'm not suggesting I move in.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31No, no...Sorry.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37Dinner would be fine. If that's not too complicated.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42Dinner would be lovely...
0:22:55 > 0:22:58Glad SOMEONE could sleep in.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02By the end of today, it'll all be over.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05One way or another.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31Have you got any paracetamol?
0:23:32 > 0:23:34I did have a bottle of wine.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37- I'll buy you another one. - So who did you have here?
0:23:37 > 0:23:40- Looks quite a party.- Hardly!
0:23:40 > 0:23:44Eileen, this is my home. I don't want just anybody traipsing through.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46It was a friend. I'm surely allowed that?
0:23:46 > 0:23:51What friend? Don't tell me, another dodgy bloke?
0:23:51 > 0:23:52Don't start.
0:23:52 > 0:23:55At least you could have tidied up after yourself.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57It's like living wi' a teenager.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00What is your problem, Gina? Wee touch of the green-eyed monster?
0:24:10 > 0:24:13- Hi.- I wanted to phone but I wisnae sure...
0:24:13 > 0:24:16and I didn't want to make things worse with the kids.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22- So how's it been?- A nightmare.
0:24:22 > 0:24:26Don't tell me - Nicole's laying the guilt on with a big shovel?
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Actually, she says she regrets the way it came out.
0:24:29 > 0:24:34- An apology? Really?- I think she does feel bad for hurting Conor.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36How's he taking it?
0:24:38 > 0:24:40Look, I'm sorry...
0:24:41 > 0:24:44We both did what we did, but you're the one that's always
0:24:44 > 0:24:46left to pick up the pieces.
0:24:46 > 0:24:47Excuse me.
0:24:51 > 0:24:53Sometimes don't you wish you could start again somewhere else?
0:24:53 > 0:24:56Look, you made yourself ill keeping secrets.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01- There's none to keep any more. - After Michael's arrest...
0:25:01 > 0:25:03the drinking... I'm so sick of being
0:25:03 > 0:25:05the centre of gossip!
0:25:05 > 0:25:08Show them that you don't care.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11Live the life you want to live, Leyla.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29BEEP
0:25:29 > 0:25:31'DCI Donald, it's Superintendent Cole.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33'I've just met with Superintendent Wallace who'll
0:25:33 > 0:25:35'be on the panel at Will's hearing.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38'After going through the evidence, we've concluded
0:25:38 > 0:25:41'that it would be... inappropriate for you to attend.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44'And you're instructed not to make any contact with Will
0:25:44 > 0:25:46'until after the hearing has concluded.'
0:25:46 > 0:25:47BEEP
0:26:16 > 0:26:18PHONE RINGS
0:26:19 > 0:26:22Hi, Mum.
0:26:24 > 0:26:25Tonight?
0:26:27 > 0:26:30I'm no' really sure. Actually, d'you know what?
0:26:30 > 0:26:32Yes, it'd be lovely to see you.
0:26:34 > 0:26:35Yeah.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39OK, right, bye.
0:27:08 > 0:27:14OK? This hearing has been convened to consider the matter of two
0:27:14 > 0:27:16charges against DC Cooper.
0:27:16 > 0:27:20Firstly, it is alleged that between November, 2012
0:27:20 > 0:27:23and last month, DC Cooper persuaded several known offenders
0:27:23 > 0:27:27to accept responsibility for offences they did not committed in order to
0:27:27 > 0:27:29improve his unit's crime figures.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Secondly, it is alleged that
0:27:31 > 0:27:35while the burglary of his father's property at 1, Springmuir Road
0:27:35 > 0:27:38was being investigated by his fellow CID officers,
0:27:38 > 0:27:41DC Cooper assaulted Mr Bell.
0:27:41 > 0:27:46Present are myself, Superintendent Ellen Cole, Superintendent Wallace
0:27:46 > 0:27:51from Central Scotland Police, DC Cooper, PC McClusker, his representative,
0:27:51 > 0:27:55and PC Brown who will make a record of these proceedings.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57As the witness for the assault has been delayed,
0:27:57 > 0:28:00we'll make a start with the first charge.
0:28:00 > 0:28:04- All right?- Should we not wait until everybody's here?
0:28:06 > 0:28:07Who else were you expecting?
0:28:07 > 0:28:11I was led to believe DCI Donald would be attending.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14That's not the case, as you can see.
0:28:16 > 0:28:21DC Cooper, in relation to the first offence of falsifying records,
0:28:21 > 0:28:23I note that you have previously denied the charge
0:28:23 > 0:28:26- through your representative. - That's correct, Ma'am.
0:28:26 > 0:28:30And yet we have clear evidence here that shows an unusual
0:28:30 > 0:28:32pattern in crime statistics.
0:28:32 > 0:28:36From October 2012 until recently, your unit,
0:28:36 > 0:28:41headed by DCI Donald, had an inexplicable rise in convictions.
0:28:41 > 0:28:44- How do you account for this? - That's not for DC Cooper to speculate.
0:28:46 > 0:28:51- VOICES ECHO:- During this period, did DCI Donald ever discuss crime stats with you?
0:28:51 > 0:28:52We had regular team briefings.
0:28:52 > 0:28:57Did he ever express any surprise at the unit's sudden success rate?
0:28:57 > 0:29:02DCI Donald has high standards.
0:29:02 > 0:29:03Success was expected.
0:29:08 > 0:29:10According to your original statement,
0:29:10 > 0:29:15and I paraphrase, you all worked your socks off to get local
0:29:15 > 0:29:18criminals queueing up to assist with your clear-up rates.
0:29:20 > 0:29:24Do you have anything further to tell us today?
0:29:25 > 0:29:28Ma'am, it is DC Cooper's job to secure convictions.
0:29:28 > 0:29:31Through legal means, yes.
0:29:31 > 0:29:33Let's take an example...
0:29:35 > 0:29:40On the 7th September, 2012, Hugh McManus admitted receiving
0:29:40 > 0:29:43and handling stolen computer equipment.
0:29:43 > 0:29:48He then requested that ten other offences be taken into consideration.
0:29:48 > 0:29:50Now, how did you, as the arresting officer,
0:29:50 > 0:29:54get him to confess without any supporting evidence?
0:29:57 > 0:29:58No comment.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03I'm sorry...I don't recall the case.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06You're facing a very serious charge here.
0:30:06 > 0:30:08At the very least, I would've expected you to prepare.
0:30:08 > 0:30:12The case WAS brought forward, Ma'am. With very short notice.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15DC Cooper was happy to proceed when I spoke to him yesterday.
0:30:19 > 0:30:25Will, how would you describe your relationship with DCI Donald?
0:30:25 > 0:30:28- Warm? Businesslike?- Professional.
0:30:28 > 0:30:32Are you aware he has a historical bullying complaint on his files?
0:30:32 > 0:30:34I've not interested in his files.
0:30:34 > 0:30:37I would hate to think that he'd put pressure on you over this.
0:30:37 > 0:30:40- He didn't. - How is that relevant?
0:30:40 > 0:30:44I'm merely trying to establish whether DC Cooper has been...
0:30:44 > 0:30:46influenced in any way.
0:30:48 > 0:30:53We can take any mitigating factors into consideration.
0:31:01 > 0:31:06Ma'am...I do have something new to say.
0:31:08 > 0:31:10Perhaps we should take a break.
0:31:10 > 0:31:13I'd like to change my statement...and admit the offence.
0:31:17 > 0:31:19Why the sudden change of heart?
0:31:19 > 0:31:21I'm responsible.
0:31:21 > 0:31:23It's only right I should admit that
0:31:23 > 0:31:25and bring this investigation to a close.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33You better watch yourself or I'll need to set my big husband on you.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36Although I am very easily bought.
0:31:36 > 0:31:37Robbie.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40May I have a word?
0:31:43 > 0:31:45What's up? Have you heard from Will?
0:31:45 > 0:31:48You do understand that at this moment Will's career is
0:31:48 > 0:31:51hanging in the balance?
0:31:51 > 0:31:54And you're here...flirting.
0:31:54 > 0:31:57I wasn't, not in the way you mean.
0:31:57 > 0:31:59It's my job to make him feel good.
0:31:59 > 0:32:05- It's disgusting. Life's one big joke to you.- I wish.
0:32:05 > 0:32:10I've packed all my things. I'll go as soon as Will gets back.
0:32:19 > 0:32:23I find it very hard to believe that you acted alone in this.
0:32:23 > 0:32:24I did.
0:32:24 > 0:32:26For what purpose?
0:32:26 > 0:32:28DC Cooper has now admitted to the first charges,
0:32:28 > 0:32:31I suggest we take a break or move on to the assault.
0:32:31 > 0:32:33I believe we're still waiting for Mr Bell to arrive.
0:32:33 > 0:32:38In the meantime...Will, I'm trying to help you here.
0:32:47 > 0:32:53I repeat, we can take any mitigating circumstances into consideration.
0:32:57 > 0:33:00I've nothing more to say, Ma'am.
0:33:04 > 0:33:08I've just been informed that Aiden Bell has decided to show his face
0:33:08 > 0:33:11after all. Please show the witness in.
0:33:21 > 0:33:24Thank you for coming, Mr Bell. Please take a seat.
0:33:34 > 0:33:40DC Cooper is accused of assaulting you on the 2nd January, 2013
0:33:40 > 0:33:43at Broomihead Road. Is that correct?
0:33:43 > 0:33:44Yeah.
0:33:44 > 0:33:47Take us through what happened from your point of view.
0:33:49 > 0:33:53He came to question me about a robbery and it got a bit rough.
0:33:53 > 0:33:55Rough? In what way?
0:33:57 > 0:33:59He asked me about robbing his dad's place.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03I tried to get away, then he stopped me and...
0:34:08 > 0:34:10..I smacked him one.
0:34:14 > 0:34:19- Are you saying that YOU struck the first blow?- I hit him...yeah.
0:34:21 > 0:34:26- And how did DC Cooper react? - He came back at me.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28Can you elaborate on that for us?
0:34:28 > 0:34:32What d'you want me to say? We had a scrap.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34He's a big fella. I came off worse.
0:34:42 > 0:34:44We've run out of a few things.
0:34:44 > 0:34:48And also we're running low on hand-wash
0:34:48 > 0:34:49and toothpaste for the bathroom.
0:34:51 > 0:34:52You said you were going into town.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55I'm not running a hotel!
0:34:55 > 0:34:57Don't worry about it, if it's too much trouble(!)
0:35:08 > 0:35:11- What are we having, coffee? - I was just getting a take-out.
0:35:11 > 0:35:14Let's give them something to gab about. Two coffees, Gina.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17Aye, I'll no' be a minute, Gabriel.
0:35:17 > 0:35:18What are you doing?
0:35:18 > 0:35:21- Your hands, they're shaking. - No wonder!
0:35:21 > 0:35:22Do you think Michael knows?
0:35:22 > 0:35:25If he wisnae in jail already, he would be the now.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28- It's no' still going on, is it? - Looks that way.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31Michael was an old misery guts, right enough.
0:35:31 > 0:35:32No surprise she looked elsewhere.
0:35:32 > 0:35:34THEY LAUGH
0:35:34 > 0:35:37- What's the joke? - It's nothing, Leyla...
0:35:37 > 0:35:40Believe me, not one bit of this is funny!
0:35:40 > 0:35:42Come on, Leyla. They didnae mean any harm.
0:35:42 > 0:35:46- You're just as bad!- What? - I can't do this!
0:35:53 > 0:35:55Leyla! Leyla...wait....
0:36:00 > 0:36:03Conor, will you talk to me a second?
0:36:06 > 0:36:10Look, none of this your step-mum's fault. Leyla, she was vulnerable.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13I should never have taken advantage. Not while she was still with your dad.
0:36:13 > 0:36:18- It's your brother! - All I can do now is apologise.
0:36:18 > 0:36:21Apologies not accepted. Not now. Not ever.
0:36:33 > 0:36:37That was a good wee juice. Eileen, I hope it's OK -
0:36:37 > 0:36:40I closed up early so I could take Madonna for a treat.
0:36:40 > 0:36:43- Yeah, who's a lucky girl, then? - We've been fussing over Cal
0:36:43 > 0:36:45and his hearing for weeks. She's been great.
0:36:45 > 0:36:49- About time she got spoiled, eh? - Yeah, Keep them sweet, eh?
0:36:49 > 0:36:53- Have you heard from DCI Donald? - He popped in after work.
0:36:53 > 0:36:57- Come on...spill the beans. - There's nothing to tell.
0:36:57 > 0:36:59We might go out for dinner...
0:36:59 > 0:37:00- as FRIENDS.- Aye, right(!)
0:37:00 > 0:37:03From what I seen he wants to be more than just friends.
0:37:03 > 0:37:06- See you later.- See you.
0:37:18 > 0:37:22- ROBBIE:- 'Who do you think you are - some tough copper?
0:37:25 > 0:37:27'Who do you think you are?
0:37:28 > 0:37:32'Who do you think you are?
0:37:32 > 0:37:34'Some tough copper?'
0:37:41 > 0:37:42'I'm proud of you, son.'
0:37:46 > 0:37:49I'm proud of you, son.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53'Some tough copper...
0:37:53 > 0:37:55'who can push me around?'
0:38:18 > 0:38:22DC Cooper, on the first charge, the panel appreciates that although
0:38:22 > 0:38:24your motives aren't entirely clear,
0:38:24 > 0:38:27you have pleaded guilty.
0:38:27 > 0:38:30As for the second charge, the witness, Mr Bell, appears to
0:38:30 > 0:38:34corroborate your version of events. The panel therefore
0:38:34 > 0:38:38accepts your submission that you acted in self-defence.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41On the first charge, as you have already served
0:38:41 > 0:38:42a term of suspension,
0:38:42 > 0:38:46you are permitted to return to duty. Although for a period of two months,
0:38:46 > 0:38:49you will return to the rank of police constable.
0:38:52 > 0:38:58- Uniform?- For what it's worth, I share your disappointment.
0:39:06 > 0:39:10Hey, Conor. Smoking is such a disgusting habit.
0:39:10 > 0:39:14- Yeah?- Gives you bad breath and stunts your growth.
0:39:14 > 0:39:15What d'you want?
0:39:20 > 0:39:25I thought you were the mature one. Nicole's always kicking off,
0:39:25 > 0:39:27Adeeb would rather die than have a conversation.
0:39:27 > 0:39:29Your point is?
0:39:29 > 0:39:33Bad stuff happens, that's life. You can't punish us all for ever.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39I'm making lasagne tonight. Heard it was your favourite.
0:39:39 > 0:39:41What, like a microwave one out of the mini-market?
0:39:41 > 0:39:44No, freshly-made.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46You can cook?
0:39:46 > 0:39:48Better be at the table at seven and see for yourself.
0:40:08 > 0:40:12Hi. It's me...
0:40:18 > 0:40:22I've been calling you like mad. Have you been drinking?
0:40:22 > 0:40:25Just a swift one to celebrate.
0:40:25 > 0:40:28- You got off?- Back in uniform. - Only for a few months.
0:40:28 > 0:40:32Then you'll be back on track, doing your sergeant exams in no time.
0:40:32 > 0:40:36- What about the assault? - Self-defence.
0:40:36 > 0:40:40- And the crime stat thing? - No point in having an inquest.
0:40:40 > 0:40:44You took the blame, didn't you?
0:40:44 > 0:40:46I did what I had to do.
0:41:15 > 0:41:17I'm not in the mood to celebrate.
0:41:18 > 0:41:21Do you know what I can't get my head around?
0:41:21 > 0:41:24Why would you take the rap for Donald?
0:41:25 > 0:41:27Robbie, it's done now. Can we just forget about it?
0:41:27 > 0:41:31- I was so sure you wouldn't lie! - I told you, I didn't have a choice!
0:41:31 > 0:41:33(Sorry.)
0:41:49 > 0:41:51(This way we can just start again.)
0:41:52 > 0:41:54DOORBELL RINGS
0:41:58 > 0:42:00Sue?
0:42:00 > 0:42:02Edward, this is a nice surprise.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13- Leyla, look will you at least let me apologise?- Gabriel, please,
0:42:13 > 0:42:16- this is hard enough. - It doesn't need to be. I only want to help.
0:42:16 > 0:42:21- What can you do? - Did Conor come home?
0:42:21 > 0:42:24Yeah. Zinnie cooked for him.
0:42:24 > 0:42:27Good, I knew Zinnie would charm him round.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30You asked her to speak to him?
0:42:30 > 0:42:32You don't need to deal with this on your own.
0:42:32 > 0:42:35- It's as much my fault... - Just leave it, please!
0:42:35 > 0:42:40- Why?- I can't have you back in our lives like this.
0:42:40 > 0:42:41Why not?
0:42:43 > 0:42:48I don't get it. I thought we'd become close again.
0:42:48 > 0:42:51- What's going on? - God, how can you not know?
0:42:51 > 0:42:55- Know? What?! - I still love you, Gabriel!
0:43:01 > 0:43:04I'll be on my way tomorrow, that's a promise.
0:43:05 > 0:43:08Nothing like your own bed, is there, Sue?
0:43:08 > 0:43:11Actually, I'm going to be leaving mine for a while.
0:43:11 > 0:43:16- Really?- Campbell and I are off on a four-month cruise!
0:43:16 > 0:43:21How delightful. I do hope you like a sea view.
0:43:22 > 0:43:25Now that everything's settled, we should head to Brighton.
0:43:25 > 0:43:26Hayley wants us to go down.
0:43:26 > 0:43:29I can't. Not now I'm on shifts.
0:43:29 > 0:43:33And after today, Will does have to win back a few brownie points.
0:43:33 > 0:43:35I'll go myself.
0:43:35 > 0:43:39I've a little something for you, Will. To say well done...
0:43:39 > 0:43:44and give you a chance to blow off a bit of steam.
0:43:44 > 0:43:48- Thanks.- A day at the shooting range.
0:43:48 > 0:43:51Will loved shooting when he was a boy.
0:43:51 > 0:43:54I didn't think it would be Robbie's kind of thing.
0:43:54 > 0:43:56It's a solitary sport.
0:43:56 > 0:43:59And you're more of a party animal, aren't you?
0:44:00 > 0:44:04- What? What party? - Nothing. He's having a dig.
0:44:04 > 0:44:08A day in the country will do you both the world of good.
0:44:09 > 0:44:12I don't think so, somehow.
0:44:14 > 0:44:16You all right, Will?
0:44:16 > 0:44:17Toilet.
0:44:26 > 0:44:30It doesn't matter what I feel. It can never work.
0:44:31 > 0:44:35Some people go through their whole lives and not have what we've got.
0:44:35 > 0:44:39Yeah, but look at the misery we've caused.
0:44:39 > 0:44:43Since we split, I've done everything I can to get over it.
0:44:45 > 0:44:47Nothing comes close.
0:44:49 > 0:44:52It's not just about you and me though, is it?
0:44:52 > 0:44:55I'm no' saying it's going to be easy, but the kids...
0:44:55 > 0:44:59- they'll come round eventually. - Yeah, right(!)
0:44:59 > 0:45:02Yeah. Right.
0:45:02 > 0:45:06Come on, we can get through this.
0:45:06 > 0:45:09Please, just...let's try, eh?
0:45:39 > 0:45:42- There you go, pal. - That's great, thanks.
0:45:45 > 0:45:48What happened to you?
0:45:50 > 0:45:52Cole kept me away.
0:45:52 > 0:45:55You were meant to be in there, fighting my corner.
0:45:55 > 0:45:58- Aiden came good, didn't he? - I'm back in uniform.
0:46:01 > 0:46:04At least the husband'll enjoy that.
0:46:04 > 0:46:06Can I have a large whisky, please?
0:46:08 > 0:46:10Has Eileen been in?
0:46:11 > 0:46:13Not that I've noticed, no.
0:46:13 > 0:46:15He was very good at that...
0:46:17 > 0:46:20I entered Robbie into all the baby competitions.
0:46:20 > 0:46:23- Mum, no-one needs to know that. - You were so cute!
0:46:26 > 0:46:27What did he want?
0:46:27 > 0:46:29Forget him, he's not worth it.
0:46:32 > 0:46:34You wouldn't really go to Brighton without me, would you?
0:46:34 > 0:46:36Maybe.
0:46:36 > 0:46:39What's the problem? I havenae seen Hayley in ages.
0:46:39 > 0:46:43- It's Brighton!- So? - So you might meet someone else.
0:46:43 > 0:46:45I am married to you!
0:46:45 > 0:46:49Love's young dream, eh(?) At each other's throats most of the time.
0:46:49 > 0:46:52- Just shut up, will you? - What on earth's got into you?
0:46:52 > 0:46:57- I'm sick of all your digs and your snipes!- Will!
0:46:57 > 0:47:01Go on, get out. Now! Pack your bags!
0:47:01 > 0:47:04- Will, it's really late. - Sue, it's fine.
0:47:04 > 0:47:08Will's had a very stressful day.
0:47:10 > 0:47:12I do hope you'll forgive him.
0:47:20 > 0:47:23- Any more for any more? - I think you've had enough.
0:47:26 > 0:47:27Fine.
0:47:37 > 0:47:40I thought you and Will were happy?
0:47:40 > 0:47:42We are...most of the time.
0:47:42 > 0:47:46What's happened? What's gone wrong?
0:47:46 > 0:47:51Will's been under a lot of pressure with this court thing hanging over his head.
0:47:51 > 0:47:53There's no need for him to take it out on his dad.
0:47:55 > 0:47:58You've got no idea.
0:47:58 > 0:48:00TELEVISION QUIZ SHOW PLAYS
0:48:04 > 0:48:07Conor...
0:48:07 > 0:48:11could you turn that down for a sec?
0:48:14 > 0:48:17Do as she says, yeah?
0:48:22 > 0:48:24What's going on?
0:48:25 > 0:48:29- We wanted to apologise.- We both do.
0:48:29 > 0:48:34- What, are you back together? - Probably never even split up!
0:48:34 > 0:48:37We're not together. We haven't been for a long time.
0:48:40 > 0:48:43Things should never have happened the way they did.
0:48:43 > 0:48:47- All we want is to try and make things right.- Makes no odds to me.
0:48:47 > 0:48:50Come on, man. Cut some slack, eh?
0:48:50 > 0:48:53From next week, I'm out of here.
0:48:56 > 0:48:57For good.
0:48:57 > 0:49:00What's that supposed to mean?
0:49:00 > 0:49:05I'm going to my mum's - my real mum's - in Toronto.
0:49:05 > 0:49:09She won't have you, Conor. She never has before.
0:49:09 > 0:49:12I've told her what you've been up to.
0:49:12 > 0:49:13There's no need for this.
0:49:13 > 0:49:16I'm going.
0:49:21 > 0:49:23PHONE RINGS
0:49:28 > 0:49:29Perfect timing.
0:49:31 > 0:49:34Don't tell me your "friend" has stood you up?
0:49:42 > 0:49:46- This is for you.- What for?!
0:49:46 > 0:49:49Does there have to be an agenda?
0:49:49 > 0:49:53I just want to say thank you for all the support you've given me
0:49:53 > 0:49:54this last year.
0:49:58 > 0:50:00That's lovely.
0:50:00 > 0:50:03- PHONE RINGS - Oh!
0:50:06 > 0:50:08That your secret admirer, yeah?
0:50:08 > 0:50:10- PHONE STOPS RINGING - Who cares?
0:50:13 > 0:50:14Madame...
0:50:26 > 0:50:30You should've seen the two of them before this hearing.
0:50:30 > 0:50:33- It was like I didnae exist. - Edward's a lawyer, isn't he?
0:50:33 > 0:50:36- He knows about that kind of stuff. - He told Will to lie!
0:50:36 > 0:50:40- About what? - Nothing, Mum. It wisnae important.
0:50:41 > 0:50:44So what is the problem?
0:50:44 > 0:50:48I'm Will's partner. He should be confiding in me, not him.
0:50:48 > 0:50:50Maybe you should go and visit Hayley.
0:50:50 > 0:50:52Talk things through with her.
0:50:53 > 0:50:56No, Mum. Honestly, I don't want you worrying.
0:50:56 > 0:51:01- Are you sure?- Yes, you go on that holiday. Have the time of your life.
0:51:01 > 0:51:04I hate to be going if things are... difficult.
0:51:04 > 0:51:06I just want you to be happy, that's all.
0:51:08 > 0:51:11I am...honestly.
0:51:46 > 0:51:48Will, what are you doing?
0:51:49 > 0:51:51I fell. Sorry.
0:51:51 > 0:51:54- Do you want some water?- Yeah.
0:52:06 > 0:52:08Are you OK? You didn't hurt yourself, did you?
0:52:18 > 0:52:21You're such a good person.
0:52:25 > 0:52:27Don't ever leave me, please.
0:53:19 > 0:53:21What are you doing?
0:53:23 > 0:53:25Just...leave it.
0:53:25 > 0:53:29Leyla, I never would have left that bottle if I thought you'd be tempted.
0:53:29 > 0:53:32It's all such a mess.
0:53:32 > 0:53:34This isn't going to solve anything, is it?
0:53:34 > 0:53:37I knew you shouldn't have had that drink the other night.
0:53:37 > 0:53:40It doesn't matter anyway.
0:53:41 > 0:53:44Conor's decided to go and live with his mum.
0:53:44 > 0:53:46Seriously?
0:53:47 > 0:53:52Seems I've driven him to the other side of the world.
0:53:52 > 0:53:55Maybe it's time his own mother put up with him.
0:53:55 > 0:53:57Adeeb's barely speaking to me.
0:53:57 > 0:53:59What's new(?)
0:54:02 > 0:54:07What about Gabriel? He really seems to want to support you.
0:54:09 > 0:54:11I just, I...
0:54:13 > 0:54:15SHE SOBS
0:55:11 > 0:55:12You OK?
0:55:34 > 0:55:38Sometimes I think, if only it was just you and me...
0:55:39 > 0:55:41..on a desert island somewhere.
0:55:42 > 0:55:47No family, no work, no problem.
0:56:09 > 0:56:12Sounds perfect.
0:56:27 > 0:56:30- Me and Bob are going to work things out.- I know you are.
0:56:30 > 0:56:33Come here!
0:56:33 > 0:56:37I'm no' daft, Stella. I seen you wi' him this morning.
0:56:37 > 0:56:39Bob practically telt me to leave.
0:56:39 > 0:56:43If I've picked up the signals, it won't be long till wee Bob does.
0:56:43 > 0:56:46That money is for food and drink, nothing else.
0:56:46 > 0:56:48Fancy a butler in the buff?
0:56:48 > 0:56:50Gabriel'll kill you, Scarlett!
0:56:50 > 0:56:52Stevie?
0:56:54 > 0:56:56He'll be back soon.
0:56:56 > 0:56:59But we could really use some privacy.
