09/07/2013 River City

A little boy seems to have got himself lost.

His name's Callum. Callum Adams.

Kelly, if you could proof-read this for me, please.

Make sure the description of Cal and what he was wearing is correct.

-We'll find him.

-Will we?

Don't even think like that.

You were supposed to be looking after him!

-'Grandpa.'

-Cal?

DISCONNECT TONE

-Cal?

-What's going on?!

Somebody's got him.

Please.

If anyone has seen Cal,

or thinks they know anything

about where he might be,

I'm asking you, I'm begging you,

to get in touch with the police.

We love you, Cal.

And we need you back home with us.

-You think it will work?

-It's got to.

You know how it goes - the first two days are crucial.

We're into our third, with no leads.

I can feel him slipping away.

I can't believe nobody saw anything.

Well, let's hope some memories are jogged today.

What are you thinking?

Just how porous the area is.

There's so many exits, either end of the fair, through the back courts,

the lock-ups, the subway, he could be anywhere.

Or nowhere. He might still be in Shieldinch.

I haven't ruled that possibility out.

It's unlikely now, surely?

It's unlikely, but as DS Grant says,

we shouldn't close our mind to anything.

But, where and why, if not at the Mullens'?

I don't know.

-Talking of the Mullens, shouldn't you be heading over there?

-Yes.

What time should I say you'll be arriving?

Not long, I'm just waiting on the boy's clothes.

I'm happy to be there, sir.

DC Cooper might not be welcome, after yesterday, I mean.

No, I need you on the ground, supervising the reconstruction.

Besides, Cooper, you've lived in the community, you know the family.

It might go some way to repairing the situation.

-Bear that in mind, yeah?

-Sir.

You're clear about how you're going run things today?

Yes, sir - monitor and guide if need be,

and walk through the crucial moments.

-Good. Best get on with it, then.

-Sir.

HE EXHALES

RADIO: Road closures are in place throughout the morning

in the Montego Street area of Shieldinch, where police are staging

a reconstruction as part of the investigation

into the disappearance of missing toddler Callum Adams.

The four-year-old was last seen at a school fair in the street

two days ago and police are appealing

for anyone with information to contact them. Sport now...

Oh, aye?

Here to search the house again, are we?

Is Ms Adams here? I need to speak to her about something.

-Are you trying to punish her or what?

-We're trying to help.

I can't believe you're putting us through this.

-Sir.

-Cooper.

Morning. How are you holding up?

Ah, Mrs Mullen.

Any chance of a cup of tea?

Should you be out looking for Cal, not harassing us?

I assure you, we're doing everything humanly possible, Mrs Mullen.

It's important I speak to your daughter just now.

Do you really think this will work?

It's exactly the right thing to do today, at this stage in the investigation.

As long as we all get behind it.

There's something I need to show you. Is that OK?

Now, I know this is painful, but we need you to confirm

that these are the same as those worn by Cal when he went missing.

I can't do this.

Kelly-Marie, this is the only thing we'll ask you to do.

You don't have to be involved in the investigation beyond this.

But I want to know what's happening.

I'll be here. I'll be with you all day.

If we have any developments, you'll be the first to know, I promise.

Can you not see you're upsetting her?

I understand your misgivings, Mrs Mullen,

but this approach has proven again and again to be effective.

Well, it feels desperate to me.

We are desperate to find Callum.

It's a good match, Kel.

It's identical, same size.

-Lenny bought it for him.

-That's good.

Thank you, Kelly-Marie, I appreciate how hard this is.

It's easier knowing we're not suspects any more.

I'm going to go and get changed.

I don't want Callum seeing me like this.

I'll give you a hand, darlin'.

Thanks for the help.

Think you're needing it.

At least you're trying. You should have a word with Lenny, if he'll listen.

I can, but what's it about?

He doesn't want to take part in the reconstruction.

If he doesn't, we're wasting our time

and another day away from finding Callum.

Like the time you've wasted searching for him here?

That was procedure, nothing more.

Look, I'm sorry, but let's just try and concentrate on today.

Right, bring him to the Tall Ship flat.

I'll make sure Lenny's there.

-Half an hour, just before the briefing?

-Aye.

-I'll keep in touch.

-Sir.

I like that thing he does.

What?

He leaves that blue band across the top for sky

and the green band at the bottom. It's always the same.

The ones we've got on our fridge, every one, exactly the same.

The sky and the ground are small but you're big.

-It kinda says something, that, eh?

-Funny what you don't notice.

All I see is me and him holding hands.

Ah, well...

Say what you've come for.

The police have been round to see Kelly-Marie.

-You didn't say anything?

-No.

You think they know anything?

About the ransom? How could they? It's just you and me knows.

-You sure about that?

-They said no police, so no police.

Good. We'll sort this, as soon as they get in contact.

And?

Donald said you don't want to do the reconstruction,

-didn't want to meet the boy.

-Damn right I don't.

Do you not see what they're doing here?

They're putting us out there so people have somebody to blame.

Anybody thinks this will make any difference is kidding theirself.

They're not kidding, they're hoping! It's for Cal's sake.

And we've got to play along!

You never know, it might be a help. We don't know where he is.

And anyway, if you don't do it...

..it might look like you know something, know what I mean?

Mr Mullen. Mr Murdoch.

This is Daniel and his chaperone, who will be helping us out today.

I thought it would be best if you all met before the briefing.

-Hiya, Daniel.

-Hiya.

Lenny?

Lenny?

Mr Murdoch?

Aye.

Uh, aye. I need a minute.

That's fine, you take your time. We'll see you downstairs.

Sorry about that, he's under a lot of stress.

Look, will you sit down? You're making me nervous.

Sorry.

Guess you didn't find what you were looking for yesterday

-or today wouldn't be happening.

-Thankfully not.

It was difficult, but necessary.

-So, now here we are.

-You know, I'm not stupid.

I do understand why.

I have read about stepdads and boyfriends or whatever

hiding things in the attic. But you,

you really think we could have...?

We had to rule out the possibility.

It would have been remiss of us not to.

This is a happy home, a happy house.

I don't doubt that, not for a second.

And I ask you not to doubt that we desperately want to find Cal.

-Everything we do is to that end.

-Is that not ironic?

That you accuse US of harming family?

When I've seen what you've done to yours.

What happened between me and Robbie is irrelevant to today.

You think? Really?

WATER RUNS

THEY WHISPER

-You all right, Jimmy?

-I think so.

-Ms Brennan, thanks very much for coming along today.

-I want to help.

-This is Daniel, our Cal for the day.

-Hello.

-Hello.

We're just waiting on Mr Murdoch. He needed a few minutes.

-I'll go and see how he's doing.

-He's fine.

Hey, Daniel.

I'm Cal's granddad, Lenny.

And this one, that's his other granddad, Jimmy.

So are you going to help us find him today?

Good lad.

OK, folks, if you'd just like to settle down, we'll get started.

First of all, I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce DS Grant.

-She's going to be in charge of today's reconstruction.

-Hello.

Why are we here? Two days ago, Callum Adams went missing

from the Shieldinch Pre-school Community Fair.

Now, although the search for Callum continues, we now have to consider

the possibility that he was abducted at random or taken on purpose.

If this is the case, and we have no way of knowing if it was planned

or opportunistic, if Callum was the target, or if it was any child,

but if this is the case,

it is imperative we revisit the events of that day.

Someone in this room or anyone outside may have seen something.

Today is about jogging people's memories of that day

and the days running up to it.

To that end, the day will involve a camera crew who'll be filming

the actions of Mr Murdoch, Ms Brennan and Daniel here,

exactly as they were on the day that Callum went missing.

We'll retrace their steps, from the mini-market to the salon

in the hope that this'll lead to them remembering something,

anything that will help us to find Callum.

This also involves all of you.

You may all recall something, prompted by seeing them.

So it's very important that you are in exactly the same place

as you were on the day.

The community centre has been set up as an information point.

-There'll be officers there ready to take down any information you might have.

-Just like Crimewatch?

Just like that. Is there anything you'd like to add, DS Grant?

I think you've covered everything, sir.

Just to remind ourselves, it's about opening your minds

to anything out of the ordinary, a word or event that struck you as odd.

There were a lot of strangers in town.

If it feels weird or doesn't sit right, no matter how small,

-then come to the community centre...

-You mean weirdos?

Not necessarily, just anyone unusual just hanging around.

OK, well, if everyone's ready,

let's make our way to the places you were on the day

and we'll get started. Thank you.

Bob! Bob!

All right, mate?

How's it going?

I need to ask you something, mate.

Did a guy come in here looking for an MOT last week?

Maybe, it is a garage. How?

I really need to know. It could be helpful for this reconstruction.

-Oh, right.

-So can you tell me when?

I did a couple last week. What's the name?

Matty Rhodes.

Rhodes. It's not ringing any bells. Hold on a minute.

Anything?

No. What did he look like?

Erm, skinny, not tall, not small.

Wearing a kinda denim jacket and a cream cap, you couldnae miss it,

-it had zigzags all over it.

-No, I'd have remembered him.

-You sure?

-Aye.

-Cheers.

-Gareth, hold on a minute.

What's this guy to you? I mean,

why's he so important all of a sudden?

Ach, it's probably nothing. Don't worry about it, it's fine.

-See you.

-See you later.

Hey. What was that about?

-What?

-You and Bob.

If it's about Callum, I want to know now.

-It's probably nothing.

-Aye, well, tell me about nothing.

This guy I know from the jail.

Do you know him well?

Well enough to avoid.

-And?

-And what?

Don't annoy me.

Let me go.

Look, I bumped into him last week.

-I didn't even know he was out the jail.

-Here?

Aye, I thought it was weird, but then he said he was using the garage

-and I just thought, "fair enough" and was on my way, as quick as.

-But?

Well, he's not the kind of guy that drives a car that needs an MOT,

if you know what I mean?

Bob says he was never in the garage.

What's this got to do with Callum?

Nothing, maybe, but he hates Lenny. He's nuts.

-I wouldn't put anything past him.

-How nuts?

He's a psycho, that's why I've kept him at arm's length.

Do you think he would take Callum?

I don't know.

Would he hurt a wee boy?

If he was paid to.

-How are you?

-Still innocent.

Why, is there something else you want to accuse me of?

-I said I was sorry.

-Sorry's not good enough.

My head was all over the place, it was family...

Everybody was guilty, even you.

I'm honoured.

OK, ready when you are.

Hey, Daniel,

you know, my Cal, he collects monster cards.

Do you collect them as well?

See, when I was your age, it was football cards.

My dad used to take me to the football, up to Celtic Park,

every second week, and...

Where would we find your pal?

-Ex pal.

-Why's that?

I'm out the jail.

He's the kind of guy you want to be friends with inside.

Outside, not so much.

-Where are you going?

-Why?

The reconstruction.

-I wasn't here.

-Gareth, wait!

What for?

How much longer? You need to be here. I don't.

I...I don't know. Just wait.

Hopefully, somebody somewhere will remember something. Excuse me.

Looks just like wee Cal.

-OK, I'll let you take it from here. You're in charge.

-Sir.

THEY MURMUR

Just to go over the run of our events,

Mr Murdoch, Ms Brennan and Daniel will go to the mini-market.

Ms Brennan will be in the shop for a few minutes.

We will then follow you through the fair.

Ms Brennan will go off to a stall

and at that point Mr Murdoch will let go of the boy's hand. OK?

You just go straight through the fair to Granddad Jimmy. All right?

Looks like we're good to go. Everybody OK?

Let's get this over with, eh?

OK, then, as on the day, if we're all ready.

-Hiya.

-Hi.

What now?

I'm not sure. I think I wait here a minute

and then go and walk with Lenny, like I did on the day.

Right.

Are they going to be filming through the window?

I couldn't say.

-I think I'm just going to shift.

-OK.

Hey!

What are you doing, Jimmy?

What does it look like? I'm coming with you.

-Why?

-I want some answers. What's the story?

-I tried calling him just now, that's all.

-You sure that's all?

You think I'd be working with a psycho against Lenny,

-putting that wee boy at risk?

-What's his beef with Lenny?

I'm not sure, it's in the past.

That's not enough. Anything?

-He didn't pick up.

-Do you know where he lives?

Right. What are we waiting for?

You're squeezing me too tight.

Sorry, pal. I didn't know I was doing it.

You tell me if it happens again, eh?

All these people are making me nervous.

Let me show you something. See this?

That's me and Callum.

That's him there.

See, if you help me find him,

I'll be your pal forever.

You can ask me for anything, anything. Can you do that?

Good boy.

Right, what can I get you?

Well, on that day I came in to get Cal some monster stickers.

Well, I cannae help you there. I'm still waiting on them coming in.

-Right, OK.

-Aye, what with you and Lenny and that couple,

they've totally cleared me out.

What couple?

Eh, I'm not sure. You must've seen them.

She came in just after you and he was outside having a smoke.

What do you mean, "You're not sure"?

I'm...not sure, why?

That's the kind of thing that might be important.

-How?

-Well, they could've been following us.

What if they knew he collected those stickers?

Do you think?

I dunno. Maybe, it's possible.

Can you describe them?

Eh... Well, I don't know. I'd never seen them before,

I don't even know who their kid is. Maybe you could ask at the playgroup.

Why haven't you said something before?

I've only just remembered.

Bob, you need to think hard about what they looked like...

RAP ON THE DOOR

..and go and give the police a description.

I'll try. I will. I'm sorry.

I'll borrow these.

These are for you.

Don't open them until you get to the bouncy castle, OK?

DOGS BARK

You all right?

-Why wouldn't I be?

-No reason.

Just, you're supposed to be by that bouncy castle.

Doing what?

I don't know, helping, maybe?

-And this is?

-Right.

What do you mean, "right"?

No, man, sorry. I meant "right" as in a good thing. Proactive.

Aye, that's right. Just mind that. That's what we're here for.

Absolutely. Chill, man.

I am chilled!

Is that him?

Aye, that's him all right.

HE RAPS THE FLAP

Check it out. Lenny's lap dog.

-Aye, very good.

-And a wee bit cocky with it.

HE YELLS IN PAIN

You broke my arm!

Stop moving and no more harm'll come to you.

MATTY GROANS

GARETH PUNCHES HIM

Where is he? Where's my grandson?

I don't know what you're talking about.

You better tell us where he is!

Where is he?

Mr Murdoch.

Mr Murdoch?

You need to let go of his hand.

What's wrong with him?

Jimmy's not there.

Scarlett, they were right there.

A man and a woman, I can't believe I'd forgotten.

Mum, don't upset yourself. What're you talking about?

-I'm telling you, they were there.

-Who was there?

-The two of them.

-What's going on?

-The couple, the ones with no weans.

That were just waiting to take wee Callum.

And we just stood by and let them.

Jimmy is part of the reconstruction. He's vital. Where is he?

I've no idea.

You trying to tell me on a day like this, he would just leave?

With all the family here?

Come on, where have you sent him?

He's cleared it.

What?

The only number on it is yours, from five minutes ago.

MATTY LAUGHS

Funny, aye?

Ah! Stop...

This is family. See if anything happens to wee Callum,

you any idea the trouble you'll be in?

Less than you, especially when I tell them what we did.

Hey! Take it easy, we need answers.

He's no use to us knocked out.

Believe me, if this is about family,

you've picked the wrong one.

I'm losing patience with you. You've been seen about Shieldinch

and you've got a beef with Lenny. Now this...

It points to you. Now where's Cal?

Who's Cal?

HE CRIES IN PAIN

What's going on? You all right, Ma?

She's fine, she had a wee panic about a couple she seen.

Look after her for a minute.

-Were they kinda strange-looking?

-Aye. Did you see them as well, son?

This shambles has gone on long enough.

I'm just trying to establish where Mr Murdoch sent your husband.

-Aye, where is Jimmy? Why's he no' here?

-Keep your voice down.

Don't you tell me to keep my voice down! Where's Jimmy?

I'd love to help you, but if Jimmy's away, it's for his own good reasons.

Lenny, I'm serious, what have you got him doing?

And I'm serious. I haven't got him doing anything.

-If he's up to anything, it's for his own reasons.

-Aye, right(!)

-When have I had a chance to speak to Jimmy on my own?

-This morning!

Something's not right about this, I can feel it.

I couldn't agree more, Mrs Mullen.

Do you want me to lift you right here?

How's that going to look, in front of all these people?

The grandfather of the missing boy, the local gangster?

Apart from guilty of course.

You wouldn't do that.

You think? Try me.

All right?

Mrs O'Hara, have you given your description of the couple you saw?

I came straight over. This place is like the January sales.

I think I saw them as well.

Tell me, I've got a few minutes.

The couple you both saw, they're the same people?

We're pretty sure, aye.

You said something about how they were dressed.

I cannae put my finger on it, they just seemed out of place, you know.

Like they were trying too hard.

Thanks very much, Mrs O'Hara, this is really helpful.

It's just Callum. Nothing else is in play today?

I don't know.

-Ring him.

-Sorry?

-Find out where he is.

-I don't take orders off you.

How loud do you want me to say heroin dealer? Multiple sclerosis?

Let's not take our eye off the ball. Look what happened last time.

You're way out of order.

Ring him.

If you speak to him, I want to know where is he, who he's after.

Under no circumstances do you tell him to leave.

Jimbo.

You never call me Jimbo. Is something wrong?

Yes. You going AWOL has wrecked this reconstruction.

You need to tell me where you are.

-'Really?'

-Aye.

-'Proper really?'

Aye, where you are, who you're with, everything.

Savannah Street.

Savannah Street?

A guy called Matty. Second name?

Rhodes.

Matty Rhodes. Gareth knows him from the jail. He knows something.

-Matty Rhodes from the jail?

-DS Grant!

-They're on their way. Get out of him what you can.

-'Aye.'

MATTY YELLS

Come on man. He's had enough.

He's tough, I'll give him that. I'd have given in long before now.

Jimmy, come on.

-This is the last time I'm gonnae ask you. Where is Cal?

-I'm not sure.

-I'm warning you!

-Aah!

I know where he was last night. He might still be there.

They text me when they move to a new location.

I remember it, then I clear my phone. Today's a move day.

-When do they text you?

-When they get there.

Keep talking, this is saving your life.

HE DIALS

We've got a lead on a local scumbag. I'm going to take two cars.

You stay with the family, see what other information you can get.

-Yes, sir.

-What're you looking so pleased about?

The description of the couple Mr O'Hara and his mother saw.

She saw them by the castle.

My money's on the entrance behind that. It was concealed. Also...

-What?

-The film crew have everything they need.

They're very happy with the images of the boy.

Looks like we might be having a productive day after all.

Here's your tea, Molly. Two sugars, all right?

Is that it, then? Do they need anything else from us?

No, that's it. You both did great.

Everyone is pulling out all the stops.

There's lots of people coming forward.

That's good to know, isn't it?

How's Kelly-Marie?

She didn't come down for the reconstruction.

She couldn't face it. The poor soul is in bits up there.

I can't imagine how she's feeling.

Look, maybe today'll prove to be a turning point.

Mrs Mullen, we've generated some very strong leads.

Could you tell Kelly-Marie that?

No. You tell her, she's up there with Mr Liaison.

He's all yours.

-Right, start talking.

-What?

Where's Jimmy and what's going on?

I'm worried about wee Cal. I don't need this and all.

-You don't want to do this here.

-Aye, I do.

-I don't need it.

Cos you know something else.

Welcome to my pain.

Matty Rhodes - a wee psychopath with a deep dislike of me.

And they think he's got Callum, or he knows who does.

-You telling me Jimmy's out looking for this guy?

-Jimmy's his own man.

So help me God, Lenny.

OK, thanks. I'll pass that on.

What's happening?

-The reconstruction is over.

-Already?

-Some new leads have developed.

-What leads?

That's all I can tell you for now.

Will, you're lying. There's more.

I can see through you.

Jimmy didn't take part.

What?

Apparently, he's taken it upon himself to go after somebody

who may now be of interest to us.

Who?

You mean, someone's taken Callum?

DOOR OPENS

I want you to leave!

-But...

-No buts! I can look after my own daughter!

Besides, youse lot are looking for Jimmy now!

-Have you any idea where he might be?

-How would I know?!

It must have been important for him to leave.

He must know where Callum is.

Well, we'll do our best to find him.

If you thought somebody took Callum because of you,

why didn't you go to the police first?

-Because I don't trust the police.

-But he's a boy!

Cal and his family are not bad people.

And I'm trying to protect them.

And thanks for your support(!)

I didn't realise how you did things.

What, differently?

-Your own way.

-Oh, no. Don't be kind.

Seeing you like this, it's hard to see the granddad any more.

Well, you want to know why? Cos people I do business with,

people like me, have just taken my wee grandson.

Look, I'm going to make this easy for the both of us.

You couldn't live with my world, the way I make a living.

It'd make you feel dirty, dishonest.

See, after this...

I don't want you involved any more.

Can't you stop? Change?

You think I can do what I've been doing for 30 years

and then turn round and change? That's a sign of weakness.

-And you can't be weak?

-Can't be seen to be weak.

As soon as that happens, guys like Matty Rhodes step right in.

Callum is your weakness?

One of them.

And once he's found, will he ever be safe?

I don't know.

And it would be the same with you.

I'm gonnae have to spend the rest of my life

protecting the people I love from enemies I've made over 30 years.

There's nothing else to say, really, is there?

-I'll get you a cab.

-No, don't.

I don't need your protection.

TEXT MESSAGE TONE

You're looking pleased with yourself, Jimmy.

Aye, I'm looking forward to seeing Cal.

His granddad's away to pick him up at Toolach Street.

This could have been so much easier

if you'd only told us that address before.

Just a matter of time, eh, Gareth?

You've had it, man. You crossed a line today.

Now, now, Matthew. Just business.

You know? Your line of work.

Exactly. We know what we're getting ourselves into.

Oh, no, you're a marked man. This is me and you now.

Or anyone you're close with, even if she is pregnant.

Hey! Come here, calm down, calm down.

You go near her, I'll come after you.

He isn't doing nothing. Not after Lenny gets a grip of him.

-You're sure this is Toolach Street?

-Aye.

What am I doing here?

KNOCK ON THE DOOR

He's through here.

-What happened to him?

-Oh, he fell and banged his head.

He said he lived here, so we helped him in.

MATTY WINCES

I think it's broken.

Don't tell me, you fell twice.

Clumsy, me. Should ask my Ma.

Black and blue since the age of two, that's what she says.

-Sounds like a tough life, Matty.

-I get by, thanks to guys like these,

you know? Got my back. Just as well they were just passing by, eh?

Indeed. What are you up to, Jimmy?

Just being a good granddad.

This is not the time to be withholding information.

If anything you've done harms Callum's chances in any way,

believe me, you will not get another day's peace for as long as you live.

Or you.

You're just out. Fancy another stint in prison?

Look, there's another address. We think wee Callum might be there.

You don't say? So where is it?

Toolach Street.

25 Toolach Street.

According to young Matthew here, Callum was there last night.

Today's a move day.

Jimmy's right, that's what Matty said.

But Matty Rhodes is a liar.

He knows something, though -

enough to send you two off in the wrong direction.

I don't think he collects these, though.

Take him to A&E, get him checked out.

Do NOT let him out of your sight.

Watch my arm. I want to see my lawyer.

You're learning from the master here, Gareth.

HE LOCKS THE DOOR

-Do you think they'll keep him in?

-Depends what they get out of him.

I don't think it'll be for long.

That was a waste of time, then?

-Maybe not.

-Nice one.

One text, we'll find out where Callum is.

-If he's not lying about that as well.

-Cheers, I was needing that.

Sorry. So what should we do?

I'm going home to get cleaned up. You?

You think I should go and see Lenny?

No, no, no. I'll go and see him.

He's probably going to feel...

He'll not feel like Granddad, that's for sure.

I'll maybe just keep close by.

I'll go and see Nicole actually, see how she is.

Do you think we done the right thing today?

Or you think we made things worse?

We did it for the right reasons.

Aye. Aye, you're right.

And?

I've got Matty's phone.

-What's on it?

-Nothing.

But he's waiting for a message to come through, to see where Cal is.

-That's what he said?

-Aye.

He also said Toolach Street.

Aye, I know. But it's all we've got.

Look, I'll leave it with you.

I need to go home and get cleaned up.

Give us a call when it happens, all right?

-Did you get Callum?

-Not yet, but we're getting closer.

Where've you been, Jimmy?! I've been worried sick!

Calm down, I'm all right. Where's Cooper?

I sent him away. This is a family matter.

-So, how close?

-Will we get him back today?

I don't know, darlin'. I wish I did, but I don't.

So what have you been doing all this time?

There's this guy, Matty. Gareth spotted him before the fair.

He was in the jail with him.

He had a load of these and a receipt with today's date.

He's still alive.

Darlin', don't talk like that.

But it's good news. He gave us an address and more information.

Then the police came round and they lifted him,

so they took him away for more questioning.

What address? What do you mean?

-Where is he?

-I don't know! We'll soon find out.

Are you OK?

Eh? Aye, aye, I'm fine.

So, just to be clear, contrary to what you said at the scene,

you were beaten up?

Aye.

And you told them what you thought they wanted to know?

Aye.

Not what you do know?

I don't know what you mean.

How did you know what they wanted to hear?

Publicity. I heard about the reconstruction.

That's the point, isn't it? Jog people's memories?

Matty, you can't afford him.

Somebody else is paying.

-Who's paying?

-I don't know what you mean.

-What are you doing back?

-Thrown out, by Scarlett.

Some people just won't be helped.

-What's the news?

-Apparently, young Matty is claiming he knows nothing.

Think he's lying?

I don't think he collects these.

-So he IS involved?

-Maybe.

We'll keep an eye on him until we're sure.

Right, well, you make yourself useful.

Fire into the CCTV footage.

These are the descriptions. Thanks.

So this couple have been hanging around Shieldinch?

That must be who Matty's been working with.

Never mind, darlin'.

Before you know it, the wee man'll be back at this table

refusing to eat his vegetables, I promise you.

Thanks, Jimmy. I feel better.

Well, better's the best I can do.

It's more than anyone else has come up with.

You want a wee nip?

That would be nice, just the ticket.

DOORBELL RINGS

I'll get that.

Any news?

-GRANT:

-Some. Can we come in?

-Aye.

Bit early isn't it, Mr Mullen?

Not for heroes, it's not.

Anyway, it's just in his coffee, it's practically a soft drink.

Really? News to me.

Anyway, that's not why we're here.

Ms Adams, we received some information today and we would...

Have you got him back?

-Not yet, but we're closer, much closer. We need your help.

-Anything.

This officer needs to take some fingerprint samples,

from a toy or something Callum's played with recently.

He hasn't been here recently.

I know, I'm sorry.

We need to confirm a set of fingerprints found earlier today

that we believe may be Callum's.

They were found on some card packs.

His toys are through there. You want me to bring them through?

No, no, Ms Adams, the officer will go with you. Thank you.

The wrappers were found beside the basketball courts.

Is that significant?

Yes. We found three sets of prints.

We've now identified the other two

as being the couple that we now believe abducted Callum.

Is that the place Matty gave up when him and Jimmy had a wee chat?

No.

That street's long gone.

Anyway, we'll find them.

For now, we just need to confirm the third set of prints are Callum's.

It shouldn't take long.

-Are we done?

-Yes.

-OK, good.

-Ready?

-Yes.

Mr Mullen, could you step outside, please?

What? What's happening?

Mr Mullen, you don't want us to do this in front of your family, do you?

Jimmy helped youse. What's going on?

Mr Mullen?

It's all right, darlin'. They're taking me in.

Taking you in for what?!

That's all right. That won't be necessary.

Mr Mullen, you're being bailed until the 13th of next month

when you'll appear in court to face charges.

If you agree to attend, sign. You're free to go.

Was it worth it? Everything he told you was a lie.

Leave the detective work to us, it's what we do.

Lenny's known since the beginning.

That it was an abduction. Somebody contacted him.

More.

They said no police. There was a ransom demand.

He did the drop-off, and it went wrong.

They got the money, we didn't get Callum.

Who's they?

We don't know.

Keep talking.

I want everything.

PHONE RINGS

Jimmy?

-He's all yours.

-I don't understand. Why's he here in the first place?

Because a complaint was made against him. We had to follow it up.

But all the information he got?

Matty was beaten up. It's hearsay, it's inadmissible in court.

So what are you saying, none of what Jimmy's done has come to anything?

I doubt it. He's been played.

Matty is in hospital with his expensive lawyer,

saying all the right things.

At least he got Matty for you.

He screwed up. We've had to let Matty go.

-What?

-I'll tell you something for nothing, though - he's dangerous.

-I'm glad I'm not you, or the young Gareth.

-What about Cal?

We'll find him. The cards, fingerprints.

Police work, Jimmy. Not have-a-go heroes.

Oh, Mrs Mullen, he's got something very interesting to tell you,

before anybody else does.

That's it? I can go? Seriously?

Cheers.

What's wrong with you? Are you off your head?

First assault and now this.

They said no police. We thought we were doing the right thing.

We thought we were protecting Cal.

How can playing at gangsters be doing the right thing?

Running about doing Lenny's bidding, acting the hard man.

-You should know better.

-I was just trying to help!

Oh, aye. And how have you helped, Jimmy? Where's wee Cal?

Half an hour ago, you thought I was a hero.

Aye, when you thought you'd got away with it,

when you convinced Kelly-Marie things would be all right!

-I was doing it for Kelly-Marie, for the family, for Cal!

-Oh, no.

I see right through you, Jimmy Mullen,

this is about you flexing your muscles again.

Cos apart from me, they're no' family.

At least Lenny's his real granddad.

If they're not my family, why do I care, eh?!

Why does it hurt?!

Expecting somebody?

Only you.

Want to pour us both a bumper?

MESSAGE TONE

What is it?

I don't understand.

Jesus.

When was this taken?

Today, when I was looking for Callum.

-It's all a game.

-With who?

I don't know.

Well, for Cal's sake, I'm glad I told them everything.

Aw, Jimmy, Jimmy.

I thought I could trust you.

-I thought you were right.

-Getting Callum back is what's right.

-You've betrayed us.

-No.

I'm doing right by Callum. You should do the same.

Let's face it, Lenny, you need help.

TV PRESENTERS SING

PHONE RINGS

-Yes?

-'It's me.'

We need to end this.

You stayed up all night doing work someone had already done,

for no result except you're too knackered to do your job?

Every time you try to assert yourself,

he puts you back in your place.

Returning the letter does the job perfectly.

-She said it would open up communication between us.

-Shut up.

I don't care what you said,

and I don't need it repeated because I didn't read it.

Two big men standing side by side, while my kid's out there all alone.

She can stay. You - get out!
