0:00:22 > 0:00:26Hi, Oriel. Beautiful painting.

0:00:26 > 0:00:27Miss Ashby!

0:00:27 > 0:00:29Hi, Jimmy.

0:00:29 > 0:00:31David?

0:00:33 > 0:00:35David.

0:00:38 > 0:00:42- David, it's time to take your medicine.- I don't want them.

0:00:42 > 0:00:43David, that's enough.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45I don't want them from you.

0:00:45 > 0:00:48David, Dr Laine said you must take them.

0:00:48 > 0:00:51- No.- David, take your medication. - It's all right, Jimmy.

0:00:51 > 0:00:54- Please, David, would you just...? - No!

0:00:57 > 0:00:58JIMMY CRIES

0:01:28 > 0:01:30HE CRIES

0:02:34 > 0:02:38I'm sure this isn't really quite what you had in mind

0:02:38 > 0:02:40when you suggested professional development.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43I can't just turn and run the first time it gets difficult.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54Evening.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57You might want to watch your shoes.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23- Do you have a name? - Violet Ashby, 23 years old.

0:03:23 > 0:03:25Nurse on duty.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27Before dinner, she had an altercation

0:03:27 > 0:03:29with one of the patients, a David Hoyle.

0:03:29 > 0:03:33During dinner he came back to the bathroom and he attacked her.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35Looks like the knife was taken from the kitchen.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37Miss O'Brien!

0:04:03 > 0:04:07Hey. Having a quiet night out at the old nut house, are you?

0:04:10 > 0:04:14Oh, sorry. No, I didn't mean...

0:04:14 > 0:04:16Sorry.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18- Parks.- Oh, sir.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23Death knock, sir?

0:04:23 > 0:04:25Yeah, her father lives out in Wendouree.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27Wendouree?

0:04:27 > 0:04:31Um, don't you usually handle this sort of thing?

0:04:31 > 0:04:32Not tonight.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35I could drive him, sir.

0:04:35 > 0:04:38The doctor's helping me with my professional development.

0:04:38 > 0:04:41Perhaps this falls into that category.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43Yes.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46Yes, I'm sure the Superintendent could drop me home.

0:04:46 > 0:04:47We might be here for a while.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53Oh, all right. Just do it properly.

0:04:53 > 0:04:54Yes, sir.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13- Doctor Winters.- Superintendent.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16My police surgeon, Dr Lucien Blake.

0:05:16 > 0:05:17Oh.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20I had the greatest respect for your father.

0:05:20 > 0:05:24Dr Blake was wanting to know a few things about the attacker.

0:05:24 > 0:05:28David came to us two years ago, catatonic.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30He's made great progress in the last few months.

0:05:30 > 0:05:35Good. Has he ever displayed violent behaviour before?

0:05:35 > 0:05:36He attacked his mother.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38She had him committed.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41Is there anything else I can help you with?

0:05:41 > 0:05:43No, I don't think so.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46You should get those cuts on your hands seen to, though.

0:05:46 > 0:05:50And by the way, any chance I might be able to speak with David?

0:05:50 > 0:05:51You'll have to talk to Dr Laine.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00He was frantic when we found him.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03ECT was the kindest thing we could do for him.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05Electroconvulsive therapy.

0:06:05 > 0:06:08Well, it has a bad name but it can be very effective,

0:06:08 > 0:06:10depending on the voltage and frequency.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12And when will he be able to talk?

0:06:12 > 0:06:14He'll be awake in an hour or two

0:06:14 > 0:06:18but it will be 12 hours or so before he's fully alert.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20You have secure rooms here, don't you, doctor?

0:06:20 > 0:06:23We do and we could continue treatment here

0:06:23 > 0:06:27- until the courts need him, of course.- Right.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29Well, as your police surgeon,

0:06:29 > 0:06:32I recommend you stay here.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34Save you rostering on a man for suicide watch.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37I mean, up to you, of course.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39It's all yours.

0:06:44 > 0:06:48Thank you, doctor. That was an act of kindness.

0:06:48 > 0:06:51- Lucien.- Kenneth Laine.

0:06:51 > 0:06:53- Ah.- After you.

0:06:53 > 0:06:54Thank you.

0:06:56 > 0:06:59- Oh, it's so cold in here.- Yes.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03Have you seen ECT before, Lucien?

0:07:03 > 0:07:06Not in a medical setting, no.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09What other setting is there?

0:07:09 > 0:07:11You see a lot of things during war time, Kenneth.

0:07:13 > 0:07:17We have no idea how shooting electrical impulses

0:07:17 > 0:07:21through the brain can help these poor souls but it does.

0:07:21 > 0:07:25And one day I want to know why.

0:07:25 > 0:07:28- Interested in research?- Oh, very.

0:07:28 > 0:07:29Hmm.

0:07:29 > 0:07:34I understand he attacked Miss Ashby earlier in the afternoon.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36Do you know why?

0:07:36 > 0:07:39Well, David has always had trouble with female authority.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43David was committed after threatening his mother.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45Female authority issues.

0:07:45 > 0:07:51She had ambitions for him to be a classical pianist.

0:07:51 > 0:07:53I believe the pressure was too much for him.

0:07:53 > 0:07:58Question is, how did he get his hands on that knife in the first place?

0:07:58 > 0:08:00I don't know.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03Kitchen reported it missing a couple of days ago.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47He's left the light on for her.

0:08:47 > 0:08:50The boss usually does this.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52You've never done this before, have you?

0:08:52 > 0:08:54No, I have, I have. I just...

0:08:56 > 0:08:59- I hate it, that's all. - Do you want me to come with you?

0:09:17 > 0:09:20I knew you'd forget your keys.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23Here we go.

0:09:28 > 0:09:32- Yes?- Ah, excuse me, sir. Sorry to disturb you.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35Is this the home of Violet Ashby?

0:09:43 > 0:09:45Put that hat on, constable.

0:09:45 > 0:09:47- Sorry, sir?- Hat on.

0:09:49 > 0:09:52If you're going to do this, do it properly.

0:09:52 > 0:09:56I used to be in the Force. I know the rules.

0:09:56 > 0:09:57Yes, sir.

0:09:59 > 0:10:03- I'm afraid I have some bad news. - Not on a bloody doorstep.

0:10:03 > 0:10:08Didn't that boss of yours teach you anything? Who's this?

0:10:08 > 0:10:10I'm District Nurse Mattie O'Brien.

0:10:15 > 0:10:16Well...

0:10:17 > 0:10:19..don't just stand there.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36Cleaning the room already?

0:10:36 > 0:10:38Oh, there's no point leaving it like that.

0:10:38 > 0:10:40You're quite sure about that?

0:10:40 > 0:10:43- You are joking, aren't you? - I don't know.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45- Oh, Blake! - No, I'm serious. I... I...

0:10:45 > 0:10:46I don't know.

0:10:48 > 0:10:52Look, say you're a homicidal maniac.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54No, no, no, no, please. Listen, listen.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57And you're completely insane, you have mother issues

0:10:57 > 0:10:59and you've decided you're going to kill the nurse on duty.

0:10:59 > 0:11:01What do you do?

0:11:01 > 0:11:04Do you go and steal a knife and hide it somewhere,

0:11:04 > 0:11:06wait for a few days till she's all alone,

0:11:06 > 0:11:09then make your move?

0:11:09 > 0:11:11- Maybe.- Then you're not insane, are you?

0:11:11 > 0:11:13Because you've planned it.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15So what are you saying?

0:11:15 > 0:11:17Well, I'm saying...

0:11:19 > 0:11:22I don't know. I'm not getting anything here and that's the problem.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28I so much preferred working with your father.

0:11:29 > 0:11:30I can well imagine.

0:11:33 > 0:11:38We had a call at the station at 7.40pm

0:11:38 > 0:11:42this evening to attend the Blackhill Psychiatric Hospital.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46By the time we arrived, the deceased...

0:11:46 > 0:11:48- Violet.- Violet...

0:11:50 > 0:11:52..had...

0:11:53 > 0:11:57..had, ah, sustained multiple stab wounds to the abdomen.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01It appears to have been a pre-meditated attack.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06One of the patients.

0:12:06 > 0:12:07I'm sorry, sir.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25- Was she interfered with? - No, sir.

0:12:26 > 0:12:28Not from what I saw.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33Is there a Mrs Ashby? Perhaps, sir...

0:12:35 > 0:12:37No.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40Violet's mother is no longer with us.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48They didn't look after her in that place.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50I told her to leave but there was a matter...

0:12:53 > 0:12:56With her it was a matter of pride.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05Well, that's that, then.

0:13:08 > 0:13:11Constable?

0:13:12 > 0:13:15Vi wore her mother's eternity ring as a, um...

0:13:18 > 0:13:20..kind of keepsake.

0:13:20 > 0:13:22It was a mixture of emeralds and diamonds.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24Your daughter's personal effects

0:13:24 > 0:13:26will be returned to you as soon as possible.

0:13:26 > 0:13:28The ring is the only thing I care about.

0:13:28 > 0:13:31- Make sure it gets back to me. - Yes, sir.

0:13:44 > 0:13:46Bloody hell.

0:13:46 > 0:13:49- Are you OK?- Not really.

0:14:07 > 0:14:10Danny and Mattie seemed rather subdued this morning.

0:14:10 > 0:14:13- I'm not surprised.- Hmm.

0:14:14 > 0:14:16You were going to hand over your receipts.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18- Hmm?- Your receipts.

0:14:19 > 0:14:21Yes, ah, that's right.

0:14:21 > 0:14:25Um, I do have them, somewhere.

0:14:25 > 0:14:27Actually, in a few places.

0:14:27 > 0:14:29But I'll gather them all together.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32Your father used to do his own bookwork.

0:14:32 > 0:14:36I offered to help but it was a matter of pride for him.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38Well, that's where Dad and I differ.

0:14:38 > 0:14:39- Hmph.- I have no pride.

0:14:42 > 0:14:46Did you know, the most modern technique

0:14:46 > 0:14:49for treating patients with mental illness

0:14:49 > 0:14:53is to shoot charges of electricity through their brains.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55Yes. Electroconvulsive therapy.

0:14:57 > 0:14:59You been reading my medical books?

0:14:59 > 0:15:02Only when you're not here. How does it work, anyway?

0:15:02 > 0:15:04Well, no-one's really sure.

0:15:04 > 0:15:09But somehow it seems to...break the cycle.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11Must be terribly painful.

0:15:11 > 0:15:14Oh, one couldn't even imagine.

0:15:14 > 0:15:18However, very few side effects, apparently.

0:15:18 > 0:15:21Short-term confusion and disorientation,

0:15:21 > 0:15:24certainly headaches.

0:15:24 > 0:15:27- And short-term memory loss.- Oh.

0:15:27 > 0:15:30I'll remember that when you forget to give me your receipts.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49Ah, I'll take you through shortly, sir.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55- Lawson.- Sir.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00I'm, ah, I'm very sorry to hear of your loss.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05Everyone is.

0:16:07 > 0:16:09Would you like me to come with you?

0:16:11 > 0:16:14No. This one'll do.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16This way, sir.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26Doug Ashby.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30He was my Commanding Officer for ten years.

0:16:30 > 0:16:32Made my life hell.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49Is this your daughter?

0:16:49 > 0:16:51Violet Ashby?

0:16:54 > 0:16:56Yes, it is.

0:17:03 > 0:17:05You can head off, Danny.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09Well done.

0:17:44 > 0:17:47There was one deep stab. That was the blow that killed her.

0:17:47 > 0:17:49The knife was driven up under the ribcage,

0:17:49 > 0:17:51punctured a lung, severed an artery.

0:17:51 > 0:17:53She would have been dead in 30 seconds.

0:17:53 > 0:17:54Get to the point.

0:17:54 > 0:18:00That first blow seems almost designed to cause maximum damage,

0:18:00 > 0:18:03suggesting a detailed knowledge of anatomy.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06The rest, the rest were just decoration.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09I'll do the talking. Doctor.

0:18:09 > 0:18:11I'm not convinced this is necessary.

0:18:11 > 0:18:13Well, we need to take statements where we can.

0:18:19 > 0:18:20I'll be in my office.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33Mr Hoyle?

0:18:33 > 0:18:36I'm Superintendent Lawson and this is Dr Lucien Blake.

0:18:36 > 0:18:38I'd like to ask you some questions about last night.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41I don't remember anything.

0:18:45 > 0:18:49What's the last thing you do remember?

0:18:49 > 0:18:50The day room.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53What time was it?

0:18:53 > 0:18:54Don't know.

0:18:55 > 0:18:59Was it before dinner? Was it after dinner?

0:18:59 > 0:19:00Before.

0:19:03 > 0:19:05I was playing.

0:19:06 > 0:19:09Good. And what then?

0:19:12 > 0:19:15Do you remember having an argument with Nurse Ashby?

0:19:17 > 0:19:20You understand that she was killed some time later.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24Yes.

0:19:26 > 0:19:28Did you attack her?

0:19:31 > 0:19:33I must have.

0:19:35 > 0:19:37Nurse Ashby was really nice.

0:19:39 > 0:19:41She asked me questions.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43Then why did you kill her?

0:19:46 > 0:19:48I don't know.

0:19:53 > 0:19:56David, I've heard you're a very good piano player.

0:19:59 > 0:20:02Not...good...enough.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09- He thinks he killed her. - Course he did.

0:20:09 > 0:20:10Then why can't he remember?

0:20:10 > 0:20:13Because he's a nutcase locked in a padded cell?

0:20:13 > 0:20:17He didn't present as unfit, just confused.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20- He's fit for trial. - And that's what worries me.

0:20:20 > 0:20:21PIANO MUSIC PLAYS

0:20:21 > 0:20:24You know his fingerprints were all over the knife.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28- You coming?- Um...

0:20:30 > 0:20:32I'll catch up with you later.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44I couldn't help admiring your bird, it's beautiful.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48- I've practised a lot. - Yes, I can tell.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53- I'm Lucien.- Oriel.

0:20:55 > 0:20:56What a lovely name.

0:20:57 > 0:21:00- What are you going to paint? - I don't know yet.

0:21:03 > 0:21:05Do you know, my mother was an artist.

0:21:05 > 0:21:08And sometimes she'd let me come in her studio...

0:21:10 > 0:21:13..and I'd sit and watch her paint. I loved it.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17Would you like to see something I've painted?

0:21:17 > 0:21:19Oh, yes, please.

0:21:27 > 0:21:30Oh, that's good. That's...

0:21:30 > 0:21:34That's really good. Is...that David?

0:21:36 > 0:21:37I painted it yesterday.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39And...

0:21:40 > 0:21:45..this is before he had the fight with Nurse Ashby, isn't it?

0:21:45 > 0:21:48Before...and after.

0:21:55 > 0:21:59Oriel, tell me. What did you think of Nurse Ashby?

0:21:59 > 0:22:02She asked too many questions. MUSIC STARTS

0:22:06 > 0:22:07Thank you, Oriel.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18Hello.

0:22:18 > 0:22:20- I'm Dr Blake.- I know.

0:22:20 > 0:22:24- And you are...? - Oriel doesn't like you.

0:22:24 > 0:22:27I'm sure Oriel can speak for herself.

0:22:27 > 0:22:29I don't like you either.

0:22:29 > 0:22:33But you do like Oriel, don't you? That's what this is all about.

0:22:33 > 0:22:35Don't you talk about her.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38- And why shouldn't I talk about her?- Because you're weak.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40Well, some people might debate that.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42Now look, Oriel is a very lovely young woman

0:22:42 > 0:22:44but this isn't the best way to gain her attention, is it...?

0:22:44 > 0:22:46Bryn! Bryn, let him go!

0:22:47 > 0:22:49Let him go!

0:22:54 > 0:22:56Thank you.

0:22:56 > 0:22:57Thank you, Dr Winters.

0:23:00 > 0:23:04- They want you to stop upsetting the patients.- Oh, do they now?

0:23:04 > 0:23:05What they really want me to do is sack you

0:23:05 > 0:23:08but I thought I'd soften it. You can't help yourself, can you?

0:23:08 > 0:23:11Well, don't you think something's very strange there.

0:23:11 > 0:23:13Course I do! It's an asylum. It's all bloody strange.

0:23:13 > 0:23:17Well, that big chap who threatened me sees himself as Oriel's protector.

0:23:17 > 0:23:22- I suggest we add him to the list. - Oh, look, there's no list, Blake.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25Hoyle was found with a knife, standing over that poor girl.

0:23:27 > 0:23:30Is this where you say something about working with my father?

0:23:30 > 0:23:31Don't tempt me.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36You really think something's wrong about that murder?

0:23:36 > 0:23:38Oh, I'm not sure. Danny.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42How's Violet Ashby's dad?

0:23:42 > 0:23:45He's a tough old bloke.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47Apparently he was the boss's boss when he first started.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49Made his life hell.

0:23:49 > 0:23:52Well, explains a few things, doesn't it?

0:23:52 > 0:23:54Listen, can you tell me where I might be able

0:23:54 > 0:23:56to find Mattie this afternoon?

0:23:56 > 0:23:58She was rostered on early this morning so she'll be home by now.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02I did some checking around for you.

0:24:02 > 0:24:04Ah, thank you.

0:24:04 > 0:24:07Did you know Violet Ashby was accused of negligence?

0:24:09 > 0:24:13Uh, a patient died last year, a Patrick Garret.

0:24:13 > 0:24:15Apparently, there was some mix-up with his meds

0:24:15 > 0:24:18and she got off with a reprimand.

0:24:18 > 0:24:22A reprimand? For fatally mixing up someone's meds?

0:24:22 > 0:24:25Well, apparently it wasn't quite so cut and dried.

0:24:25 > 0:24:27The finding was vague.

0:24:27 > 0:24:29And the hospital took her back.

0:24:31 > 0:24:35Dear, oh, dear. That's not much of a recommendation, is it?

0:24:38 > 0:24:40How are you?

0:24:43 > 0:24:46Perhaps it was a mistake me taking you with me last night.

0:24:46 > 0:24:48If I'm going to be serious about the work,

0:24:48 > 0:24:50I need to see all sides of it.

0:24:54 > 0:24:55Yes.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00HE CLEARS THROAT

0:25:02 > 0:25:03Mattie...

0:25:03 > 0:25:06She was a nurse...

0:25:07 > 0:25:09..and she was my age.

0:25:13 > 0:25:14And she had...

0:25:14 > 0:25:17She had her whole life ahead of her. Yes, I know.

0:25:24 > 0:25:27Does this mean I'm not cut out for this?

0:25:27 > 0:25:28Oh, not at all.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33Do you know what it means?

0:25:33 > 0:25:36It means you're absolutely the right person for the job.

0:25:42 > 0:25:44Doctor?

0:25:44 > 0:25:47A patient here to see you. No appointment.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50Of course. One of our regulars?

0:25:50 > 0:25:52No, I don't think so.

0:26:06 > 0:26:09Oriel, what a nice surprise.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21- Is that one of your mother's? - That one?

0:26:21 > 0:26:23No, no, not that one.

0:26:27 > 0:26:29Why are you here, Oriel?

0:26:29 > 0:26:32I'm a voluntary patient. I can sign myself out.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35That's not quite what I'm asking, is it?

0:26:36 > 0:26:38You said you liked my painting.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40- Yes, I did. - Would you like to see another?

0:26:49 > 0:26:51- It's you.- Yes.

0:26:51 > 0:26:52Do you like it?

0:26:54 > 0:26:58Wonderful. Really wonderful.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00You're very talented, Oriel.

0:27:00 > 0:27:04But I'm not sure that it was a good idea for you to come here.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06Why not?

0:27:11 > 0:27:14How did you come to be at Blackhill in the first place?

0:27:14 > 0:27:17Mum and Dad pay for me to be there.

0:27:17 > 0:27:18Why?

0:27:22 > 0:27:24There was a boy I liked.

0:27:27 > 0:27:29He didn't like me.

0:27:29 > 0:27:32I got angry.

0:27:32 > 0:27:34With him?

0:27:34 > 0:27:36With his girlfriend.

0:27:38 > 0:27:39I see.

0:27:42 > 0:27:46And how did you get on with Nurse Ashby?

0:27:46 > 0:27:49She was always asking questions.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52Writing things down in her little book.

0:27:52 > 0:27:55Hmm, that's what David said too.

0:27:55 > 0:27:57She talked to him a lot.

0:27:59 > 0:28:02That was after Patrick died.

0:28:02 > 0:28:04Patrick was a patient, wasn't he?

0:28:04 > 0:28:06They said Violet killed him accidentally.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08Do you believe that?

0:28:11 > 0:28:13Well, I'll tell you something, Oriel.

0:28:14 > 0:28:16These paintings...

0:28:16 > 0:28:19boy, they, uh...

0:28:19 > 0:28:21Well, they really are exceptional.

0:28:21 > 0:28:25I love the way you capture how you feel

0:28:25 > 0:28:28and you managed to do that with your painting of David as well.

0:28:28 > 0:28:31He's easy to paint. You know what he's thinking.

0:28:33 > 0:28:37So if I was to look at your painting of David,

0:28:37 > 0:28:40would I see that he was thinking of hurting Nurse Ashby?

0:28:42 > 0:28:45David would never have hurt her,

0:28:45 > 0:28:47especially not with a kitchen knife.

0:28:47 > 0:28:48Why not?

0:28:49 > 0:28:52His dad was a butcher.

0:28:52 > 0:28:54He can't stand the sight of blood.

0:28:54 > 0:28:56And he's terrified of knives.

0:28:59 > 0:29:01I see.

0:29:03 > 0:29:05Oriel...

0:29:06 > 0:29:09..where were you last night

0:29:09 > 0:29:12after David had his argument with Nurse Ashby?

0:29:18 > 0:29:20Lucien is supposed to mean "bringer of light".

0:29:22 > 0:29:23Did you know that?

0:29:25 > 0:29:26Not really, no.

0:29:29 > 0:29:31I think they're wrong.

0:29:34 > 0:29:35What's going on?

0:29:35 > 0:29:38Oriel Vogel can't tell me where she was last night

0:29:38 > 0:29:39between the day room and dinner.

0:29:39 > 0:29:41So?

0:29:41 > 0:29:44She has a history of jealous attacks

0:29:44 > 0:29:47and she's prone to inappropriate attachments.

0:29:47 > 0:29:49Blake, you're a GP, you're not a shrink.

0:29:49 > 0:29:54What if I can prove David Hoyle DID NOT kill Violet Ashby, hmm?

0:29:59 > 0:30:02How'd you swing this? You're supposed to be staying away.

0:30:04 > 0:30:06I may have lied to Dr Laine.

0:30:10 > 0:30:13David, how are you? I'm Dr Lucien Blake.

0:30:13 > 0:30:15Do you remember me?

0:30:17 > 0:30:20Do you, um, do you remember why you've been locked in your cell?

0:30:23 > 0:30:24Hmm.

0:30:32 > 0:30:34Don't be alarmed, Lawson.

0:30:34 > 0:30:36David, I want you to take this knife.

0:30:36 > 0:30:39- I want you to take the knife and stab me.- Blake.

0:30:39 > 0:30:41Come on, you won't get into trouble, I promise.

0:30:41 > 0:30:44- No.- David, come on. I want you to take the knife.- I can't.

0:30:44 > 0:30:45Blake!

0:30:48 > 0:30:51You can't take the knife, can you, David?

0:30:51 > 0:30:55The very thought of touching the blade terrifies you, doesn't it?

0:31:02 > 0:31:04Lawson, look, I...

0:31:04 > 0:31:08I don't know who killed Violet Ashby but I can tell you this.

0:31:08 > 0:31:12Of all the people it could be, it wasn't this young man here.

0:31:12 > 0:31:14But I did.

0:31:14 > 0:31:16I had the knife in my hand.

0:31:18 > 0:31:20I had her blood on me.

0:31:20 > 0:31:22- I can still see her. - It's all right, David.

0:31:22 > 0:31:24I killed her.

0:31:27 > 0:31:29Killed her.

0:31:29 > 0:31:32- David, hey, bloody hell! - Get him out of here!

0:31:34 > 0:31:36For God's sake!

0:31:42 > 0:31:46You said you wanted to talk to David for research purposes!

0:31:46 > 0:31:49My patients are not there for you to play games with!

0:31:49 > 0:31:52I believe Dr Blake was testing a hypothesis.

0:31:52 > 0:31:54What hypothesis?

0:31:54 > 0:31:56Could you give us a moment, Ken?

0:31:56 > 0:32:00- I will not let this happen again. - It won't. Now, if you don't mind?

0:32:08 > 0:32:10You've found it hard to believe that David Hoyle

0:32:10 > 0:32:13could have killed Violet, haven't you?

0:32:13 > 0:32:16First it was me you were wondering about, then it's Oriel.

0:32:18 > 0:32:21Oriel has private sessions with Dr Laine.

0:32:21 > 0:32:24I took her from the day room to Dr Laine's office.

0:32:24 > 0:32:28I collected her an hour later and took her to the dining room.

0:32:32 > 0:32:34I see.

0:32:34 > 0:32:36And what is it you think you see, Dr Blake?

0:32:36 > 0:32:38And what about you, doctor?

0:32:38 > 0:32:41I did not kill Violet.

0:32:41 > 0:32:44- And why should we believe you? - Because I loved her.

0:32:50 > 0:32:52I loved her.

0:32:53 > 0:32:55And she seemed to love me.

0:33:01 > 0:33:03You were lovers.

0:33:05 > 0:33:06Dr Winters...

0:33:08 > 0:33:10..what about her reprimand?

0:33:11 > 0:33:14Violet always maintained she was innocent.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16How'd you get the cuts on your hand?

0:33:21 > 0:33:24Some of our patients harm themselves

0:33:24 > 0:33:27just to give their internal pain an external form.

0:33:31 > 0:33:32I'm no different.

0:33:44 > 0:33:46How's the investigation going?

0:33:47 > 0:33:50Someone's daughter died,

0:33:50 > 0:33:53a number of lives have been pretty much ruined...

0:33:54 > 0:33:56..and my pride has taken a battering.

0:33:56 > 0:33:59Oh, I thought you didn't have any.

0:33:59 > 0:34:01Hah! I thought so too.

0:34:03 > 0:34:05Mm-hm.

0:34:14 > 0:34:17- You mind? - Sorry.- Thank you.

0:34:31 > 0:34:33Jean, hang on.

0:34:33 > 0:34:35- What?- May I?- Hmm?

0:36:47 > 0:36:49Jean.

0:36:49 > 0:36:51- Did I wake you?- No, I was up.

0:36:55 > 0:36:57- Fancy a drink? - No, I'm fine.

0:36:59 > 0:37:02Ah, here's one you'll know.

0:37:02 > 0:37:04Here's one you might know.

0:37:05 > 0:37:07Join in whenever you like!

0:37:07 > 0:37:09It's a little late for a singsong.

0:37:09 > 0:37:13- Nonsense, never too late for a song. - Yes, it is.

0:37:13 > 0:37:15You play very well.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17It's a shame we only hear you late at night.

0:37:17 > 0:37:18Yeah.

0:37:20 > 0:37:23Of course, Dad was a virtuoso, could play anything.

0:37:25 > 0:37:28Which was why I eventually took up the drums.

0:37:29 > 0:37:32- Oh, bloody hell.- Don't worry. You should go to bed.

0:37:32 > 0:37:33HE SIGHS

0:37:38 > 0:37:39Yes.

0:37:41 > 0:37:44Dr Blake's son gets it spectacularly wrong again.

0:37:50 > 0:37:53Self-recrimination and alcohol, Jean, never mix.

0:37:53 > 0:37:55I'll keep that in mind. Come on, bed.

0:38:01 > 0:38:05- Oops. Um, shall I... - No, no, leave that.

0:38:05 > 0:38:07- Oh, it's a bloody mess.- Yes.

0:38:09 > 0:38:12Oh, I should probably...

0:38:13 > 0:38:15I should probably...

0:38:16 > 0:38:19..probably go and brush my teeth, Jean.

0:38:19 > 0:38:22Ah, sweet Jean...

0:39:34 > 0:39:35Ah, sir?

0:39:35 > 0:39:38Violet Ashby's effects.

0:39:38 > 0:39:40Her dad wanted them back.

0:39:40 > 0:39:42Should I take them over or...?

0:39:42 > 0:39:44No, give them here.

0:39:48 > 0:39:50- That'll be all.- Sir.

0:40:27 > 0:40:29One set of car keys.

0:40:32 > 0:40:35One pair of glasses, damaged.

0:40:39 > 0:40:42And, ah, two gold rings.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44One with gemstones.

0:41:00 > 0:41:03That'll be all, Superintendent.

0:41:08 > 0:41:11Thanks for the house call.

0:41:14 > 0:41:16I'm glad it was you.

0:41:18 > 0:41:20Not that mess of a man you call your constable.

0:41:23 > 0:41:25Constable Parks is all right.

0:41:28 > 0:41:29Lawson.

0:41:33 > 0:41:36It really was one of the loonies that did this, was it?

0:41:39 > 0:41:41A patient died up there a couple of months ago.

0:41:43 > 0:41:44They blamed Violet for it.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47She was trying to prove it wasn't her fault.

0:41:50 > 0:41:53We think it may have been one of the patients.

0:41:55 > 0:41:59Well...it's your investigation.

0:42:02 > 0:42:04I'd be asking a few more questions.

0:42:04 > 0:42:06Sir.

0:42:32 > 0:42:35- Morning.- Ah, good morning.

0:42:35 > 0:42:38There's a plate of bacon and eggs when you're ready.

0:42:38 > 0:42:39Thank you.

0:42:39 > 0:42:40Jean...

0:42:42 > 0:42:44I do apologise for last night.

0:42:44 > 0:42:48My, um, playing was horrendous.

0:42:48 > 0:42:50I wouldn't say that.

0:42:50 > 0:42:52Dad would have.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54Thank you for the tea.

0:43:16 > 0:43:17Lawson.

0:43:22 > 0:43:27Now...you're going to think I've lost my mind.

0:45:07 > 0:45:09Ah.

0:45:09 > 0:45:12- Oriel. - Am I in trouble?

0:45:12 > 0:45:14No, no, not at all.

0:45:14 > 0:45:17In fact, I think you're about to be very, very helpful.

0:45:19 > 0:45:21There we are.

0:45:21 > 0:45:25I've been, um, studying your paintings.

0:45:26 > 0:45:28They really are very good. Lawson, would you mind...?

0:45:31 > 0:45:33Now this one.

0:45:34 > 0:45:36Can you tell me what's happening here?

0:45:39 > 0:45:42- You were talking to me.- Right.

0:45:43 > 0:45:48And this one...why is that so much darker?

0:45:48 > 0:45:50The lights went down.

0:45:50 > 0:45:51Our power system's very old.

0:45:51 > 0:45:54It struggles to cope when there's additional drain on it.

0:45:54 > 0:45:56DISTANT SCREAMING Oriel?

0:45:58 > 0:46:02Do you know why the lights go down?

0:46:02 > 0:46:06It's when Dr Laine does the ECT on us.

0:46:07 > 0:46:09Right.

0:46:09 > 0:46:10Right.

0:46:11 > 0:46:13What about these ones?

0:46:15 > 0:46:17You painted this one

0:46:17 > 0:46:22before David had his argument with Nurse Ashby, didn't you? Yeah.

0:46:24 > 0:46:29And this one...was after the argument, wasn't it?

0:46:29 > 0:46:31He'd left the room.

0:46:31 > 0:46:34The lights went low. I guessed it was for him.

0:46:34 > 0:46:36Everyone else was in the day room.

0:46:36 > 0:46:39Right. What time do you think that was?

0:46:40 > 0:46:43- Seven o'clock. - Seven o'clock.

0:46:46 > 0:46:50Let's have a little look in the book, shall we?

0:46:50 > 0:46:51Now...

0:46:53 > 0:46:55..here we are.

0:46:55 > 0:46:58"Hoyle, David.

0:46:58 > 0:47:01"150 volts, 8.55pm."

0:47:02 > 0:47:04After Violet was killed.

0:47:05 > 0:47:10But there's no record of any treatment around seven o'clock.

0:47:10 > 0:47:14Oriel, can you tell me...

0:47:14 > 0:47:17how many times a day would you say

0:47:17 > 0:47:19the lights dimmed?

0:47:19 > 0:47:22Once or twice. If that.

0:47:22 > 0:47:25Four times a day, at least.

0:47:25 > 0:47:28- I count them.- Four.

0:47:32 > 0:47:36David had two sessions of ECT with Dr Laine that day,

0:47:36 > 0:47:40before and AFTER Violet was killed.

0:47:41 > 0:47:45Yet only the latter has been recorded in the log.

0:47:45 > 0:47:51And there is no way, no way David could have killed Violet Ashby.

0:47:53 > 0:47:56ALARM SOUNDS

0:47:56 > 0:47:58What's that?

0:48:02 > 0:48:04- Get some help!- Step back.

0:48:04 > 0:48:07- - Step back, I'll deal with this. - Stay where you are! Ted, help me.

0:48:09 > 0:48:12- The cavalry's arrived. - This man's insane.

0:48:12 > 0:48:13Oh...just angry.

0:48:13 > 0:48:14He wants to know why your name

0:48:14 > 0:48:17is all the way through his daughter's notebooks.

0:48:17 > 0:48:20I can tell you why, Mr Ashby.

0:48:20 > 0:48:25Dr Laine here thinks of himself as a researcher.

0:48:25 > 0:48:27Lucien.

0:48:27 > 0:48:31Extra sessions of ECT,

0:48:31 > 0:48:34and I'm guessing heavier dosages of drugs,

0:48:34 > 0:48:35just to see what happens.

0:48:35 > 0:48:38I mean, after all, they're... they're just loonies.

0:48:38 > 0:48:40What else are they good for?

0:48:40 > 0:48:42And then one of them died.

0:48:43 > 0:48:45And Violet was blamed.

0:48:45 > 0:48:47- This was the one who framed her?- Yes.

0:48:47 > 0:48:51You see, Violet started asking too many questions,

0:48:51 > 0:48:55and he must have worked out that she was onto him.

0:48:55 > 0:48:59So he murdered her and mutilated her

0:48:59 > 0:49:01and tried to frame one of his patients.

0:49:01 > 0:49:03- This is absurd! - Mr Ashby, please!

0:49:03 > 0:49:05Sir! Sir!

0:49:07 > 0:49:09I understand this is your old service pistol.

0:49:09 > 0:49:11So?

0:49:11 > 0:49:14Went missing in the changeover. We've been looking for it.

0:49:14 > 0:49:17I-I just need to do a bit of paperwork,

0:49:17 > 0:49:20then I can put it to bed. But you must give me the gun.

0:49:20 > 0:49:23- Not till he confesses. - Doug, it won't be admissible.

0:49:29 > 0:49:32- You got enough to convict? - I'll get it sorted.

0:49:34 > 0:49:37You've got Violet's notebooks. She kept meticulous records.

0:49:37 > 0:49:39You should be very proud of her.

0:49:47 > 0:49:50You'll be charging me with firearms of fences.

0:49:50 > 0:49:53And possible attempt to commit murder.

0:49:53 > 0:49:55That's my decision, Doug.

0:49:55 > 0:49:57It's time to go home now.

0:49:58 > 0:50:00Kenneth Laine, I'm charging you

0:50:00 > 0:50:02on suspicion of murder and assault.

0:50:02 > 0:50:04You have the right to remain silent.

0:50:07 > 0:50:10- You're old Tom's boy, aren't you?- Yes.

0:50:10 > 0:50:12So everyone keeps reminding me.

0:50:12 > 0:50:14Good man, your dad.

0:50:20 > 0:50:24Psychiatry is such a new field.

0:50:26 > 0:50:31We're 150 years behind immunology, 500 behind surgery.

0:50:33 > 0:50:38ECT is only in its infancy.

0:50:38 > 0:50:42There's a new generation of anti-psychotic drugs.

0:50:42 > 0:50:45Dibenzodiazepine shows great promise

0:50:45 > 0:50:47when coupled with hypnosis.

0:50:47 > 0:50:50And, uh, you thought you'd just speed things along a little?

0:50:53 > 0:50:55No-one missed Patrick Garrett.

0:50:58 > 0:51:01No-one would have missed David Hoyle.

0:51:01 > 0:51:04At least their lives could have been of use to someone.

0:51:07 > 0:51:10And Violet Ashby got framed when Patrick Garrett died

0:51:10 > 0:51:12and she started asking questions.

0:51:12 > 0:51:16David had told me Violet was keeping a notebook.

0:51:17 > 0:51:20Doses, treatments, everything.

0:51:20 > 0:51:21I couldn't let that go on.

0:51:23 > 0:51:24Then you gave Hoyle ECT.

0:51:27 > 0:51:31And while he was unconscious, you killed Violet...

0:51:32 > 0:51:34..and dragged him into the room.

0:51:34 > 0:51:38Let him take the knife so that when he woke up...

0:51:38 > 0:51:41Well, he would have no memory of what he'd done.

0:51:44 > 0:51:47We've been checking your past records

0:51:47 > 0:51:49and there are some unexplained patient deaths

0:51:49 > 0:51:51at other hospitals that you've worked at.

0:51:51 > 0:51:53Not all of those were research.

0:51:55 > 0:51:58What did your research tell you after all this?

0:52:02 > 0:52:03Oh, Lucien.

0:52:04 > 0:52:06It's far too early to tell.

0:52:59 > 0:53:02Lovely to hear the piano at a reasonable time of day.

0:53:02 > 0:53:04Jean.

0:53:06 > 0:53:08Thank you for tidying up after me last night.

0:53:10 > 0:53:12I made quite a mess.

0:53:12 > 0:53:14No trouble at all.
