0:20:01 > 0:20:04Don't suppose you've ever needed them.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07Interesting thing about these pills is...

0:20:07 > 0:20:12when you're forced to take enough of them, you've an erection whether you want one or not.

0:20:12 > 0:20:18Stripped naked and tied to a chair, you feel very vulnerable.

0:20:20 > 0:20:22And when the needle is heated...

0:22:08 > 0:22:10That's what it looked like.

0:22:10 > 0:22:13Did you see him get into the van?

0:22:13 > 0:22:15No, we came it across it just before he got out.

0:22:16 > 0:22:21- You're absolutely certain? - It was him. I'm positive.

0:22:29 > 0:22:31We know you were with him, Joe.

0:22:34 > 0:22:36And this man?

0:22:38 > 0:22:39Ever seen this man's face?

0:22:43 > 0:22:46Let's be clear about the situation here.

0:22:46 > 0:22:50By fraternizing with known criminals, you have endangered your asylum status.

0:22:54 > 0:22:59We have good grounds to rescind that status and send you home.

0:22:59 > 0:23:02You and your family.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05Back to the Congo.

0:23:07 > 0:23:09How does that sound to you?

0:23:18 > 0:23:20We know this man was responsible.

0:23:27 > 0:23:28What were you doing with him?

0:23:31 > 0:23:34You need to tell us, Joe.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49Leave us alone, please.

0:24:03 > 0:24:06You stay silent and we have to assume the worst -

0:24:06 > 0:24:10that you're an associate of a known scumbag,

0:24:10 > 0:24:13and a possible accessory to murder.

0:24:17 > 0:24:19I've done nothing wrong.

0:24:19 > 0:24:24I don't know nothing about this man's business or any murders.

0:24:24 > 0:24:25My family's waiting for me.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33You're free to go.

0:24:34 > 0:24:38IMPLEMENT TURNS IN LOCK

0:41:30 > 0:41:33it's over.

0:41:33 > 0:41:35We can't hide the damage, that's for sure.

0:41:38 > 0:41:40But we can delay them finding it.

0:41:42 > 0:41:45I haven't emptied bins the last 17 years

0:41:45 > 0:41:49without picking up a few pointers on how things work around here.

0:41:49 > 0:41:51You see that?

0:41:51 > 0:41:53That's a time lock.

0:42:04 > 0:42:06- Who else was in the vault last night?- No-one.

0:42:06 > 0:42:10Someone must've touched it, it's on. It can only be set from inside.

0:43:40 > 0:43:43- Locked out?- The time lock slipped.

0:49:16 > 0:49:19Joe isn't your husband...

0:49:19 > 0:49:20is he?

0:49:22 > 0:49:25Tell me the truth.

0:49:25 > 0:49:27If you tell me, I can help you.

0:49:50 > 0:49:53Save your compassion for the 9 o'clock news.

0:49:53 > 0:49:57If he lied, I'm betting there's a good reason he did.

0:49:57 > 0:50:00I've no doubt. Everyone of them's got a good reason to lie.

0:50:00 > 0:50:04But we can't be taken in by any of it.

0:50:08 > 0:50:12You wanna know this man's story? Stick around. We'll find him.

0:50:37 > 0:50:38Daniel.

0:50:38 > 0:50:40Are you his mother?

0:50:44 > 0:50:46His mother's dead.

0:50:52 > 0:50:54Who is Joe, Kala?

0:50:54 > 0:50:56Tell us who he really is.

0:51:01 > 0:51:04Are you afraid, Kala?

0:51:04 > 0:51:06Are you afraid of him?

0:51:08 > 0:51:10What did he do to you, Kala?

0:51:10 > 0:51:13What happened to you in Africa?

0:51:13 > 0:51:17SHE SPEAKS AFRICAN LANGUAGE

0:51:33 > 0:51:35It's OK.

0:51:38 > 0:51:40It'll be all right. It'll be all right.

0:51:45 > 0:51:47See that she's OK.

0:51:59 > 0:52:03Even if she said where she was from, at least we could make the connection.

0:52:08 > 0:52:10I'm from the Lendu tribe.

0:52:12 > 0:52:15I come from a little village in the north east of Congo.

0:52:20 > 0:52:25I lived there with my husband, his parents and our two children.

0:52:28 > 0:52:33War came to our land in springtime.

0:52:33 > 0:52:35It didn't touch us, where we lived.

0:52:35 > 0:52:37We never thought it would.

0:52:38 > 0:52:43Rumours and terrible stories soon came to us.

0:52:43 > 0:52:46We were very afraid.

0:52:46 > 0:52:48Many people left the land...

0:52:49 > 0:52:52but we couldn't.

0:52:52 > 0:52:53We had nowhere to go.

0:52:56 > 0:52:59The Hema militia came to kill us

0:52:59 > 0:53:01in the first week of April.

0:53:03 > 0:53:06We took the children and hide in the fields.

0:53:06 > 0:53:08The men stayed...

0:53:08 > 0:53:13- The men stayed to fight and... - SHE FALTERS

0:53:14 > 0:53:18The men stayed to fight and hold them back.

0:53:18 > 0:53:20But it was useless. There were too many.

0:53:27 > 0:53:30We...We saw...

0:53:30 > 0:53:36With axes, spears and knives, they butchered every one of the men who stayed to protect us...

0:53:36 > 0:53:39and then they came and chased us down.

0:53:41 > 0:53:45They kill our children in the fields...

0:53:45 > 0:53:48and dragged us down to the village.

0:53:50 > 0:53:54For two days and two nights, our screaming filled the air.

0:53:56 > 0:53:58Terrible...

0:53:58 > 0:53:59Terrible screamings.

0:54:01 > 0:54:03And then the screaming stopped.

0:54:05 > 0:54:09The Lendu militia came, but it was too late.

0:54:09 > 0:54:11Everybody was...

0:54:11 > 0:54:13Everybody was already dead.

0:54:14 > 0:54:16Everybody except Daniel and I.

0:54:18 > 0:54:21They slit my throat and I fell into darkness.

0:54:27 > 0:54:31When I opened my eyes, I saw Joe.

0:54:31 > 0:54:34He saved me, and he saved Daniel too.

0:54:38 > 0:54:40Did Joe live in your village?

0:54:42 > 0:54:44Yes.

0:54:44 > 0:54:46He lived...

0:54:46 > 0:54:49among us, but he was not one of us.

0:54:49 > 0:54:52He told us he was a musician. Was he lying?

0:54:57 > 0:54:59Tell us, Kala.

0:54:59 > 0:55:03- Tell us what you know.- I can't.

0:55:11 > 0:55:15Is Joe a bad man, Kala?

0:55:15 > 0:55:16No, he's a good man.

0:55:18 > 0:55:20I love him.

0:55:20 > 0:55:23Then you can help him.

0:55:23 > 0:55:26He's in real danger.

0:55:26 > 0:55:28Daniel too.

0:55:29 > 0:55:32Will you at least tell us who he is?

0:55:37 > 0:55:39I promised him I would never tell.

0:55:55 > 0:55:58There is another man.

0:55:58 > 0:56:01Also from the Congo.

0:56:01 > 0:56:02Erasmus.

0:56:02 > 0:56:05He knows the real Joe.

0:56:11 > 0:56:14SHIP'S HORN

0:57:23 > 0:57:25SHIP'S HORN

0:57:29 > 0:57:31We're the new Europe, my friend.

0:57:31 > 0:57:33No-one can touch us.

0:57:37 > 0:57:41What can you do to a people who have already been to hell?

0:57:47 > 0:57:48You respected the blade once.

0:57:50 > 0:57:54You will again when I bring the boy to you.

0:58:00 > 0:58:02You recognise these men?

0:58:04 > 0:58:08Find where they are, you'll find your boy.

0:58:08 > 0:58:11Until then, I'll fix you somewhere to live.

0:58:11 > 0:58:14- I'll bring the boy to you.- No.

0:58:14 > 0:58:16Tell me where he is.

0:58:16 > 0:58:18That's all I need to know.

0:58:18 > 0:58:22I bring him home myself.

0:59:48 > 0:59:51PHONE

0:59:55 > 0:59:56Yes?

1:00:00 > 1:00:03'Who is this?'

1:00:03 > 1:00:04Let me speak to Erasmus.

1:00:07 > 1:00:10'What about Joe? You know him?'

1:00:33 > 1:00:36RADIO: 'The search widened today for the gang behind the robbery

1:04:12 > 1:04:14But yours...

1:04:16 > 1:04:19Very impressive.

1:04:25 > 1:04:29Not bad for a white boy.

1:04:40 > 1:04:41What is it that makes a man?

1:04:48 > 1:04:52Is it the head? The heart?

1:04:54 > 1:04:57Something else?

1:07:07 > 1:07:09Giving you a rough ride, is he?

1:07:09 > 1:07:10He's OK.

1:07:17 > 1:07:19Should have been here when his wife walked out.

1:07:19 > 1:07:22That was a barrel of laughs.

1:07:22 > 1:07:25- He's separated?- A few months, yeah.

1:07:25 > 1:07:29- You know the story?- No.

1:07:29 > 1:07:30No-one told you?

1:07:30 > 1:07:32Told me what?

1:07:34 > 1:07:36Lost his kid.

1:07:36 > 1:07:38His son.

1:07:38 > 1:07:40Four years old.

1:07:40 > 1:07:44Knocked down on the road outside his house. Killed.

1:07:44 > 1:07:46- My God.- Tough, yeah.

1:07:46 > 1:07:48Only child.

1:07:48 > 1:07:52Guess it's hard to hold a marriage together after something like that.

1:08:13 > 1:08:16The Congo is not like any place you've ever been.

1:08:18 > 1:08:20I have seen things...

1:08:20 > 1:08:24you people could not even imagine in your worst nightmares.

1:08:26 > 1:08:27Killing.

1:08:30 > 1:08:31Killing.

1:08:33 > 1:08:35Killing.

1:08:37 > 1:08:38Did you take part in the killing?

1:08:44 > 1:08:46Yes.

1:09:01 > 1:09:03Two tribes.

1:09:03 > 1:09:06Hema and Lendu.

1:09:06 > 1:09:09The Hema militia came and killed my people.

1:09:09 > 1:09:11Cut them, burned them.

1:09:11 > 1:09:13I am Lendu.

1:09:13 > 1:09:16We kill too.

1:09:16 > 1:09:18We kill plenty.

1:09:18 > 1:09:20Got to.

1:09:21 > 1:09:24And Joe? What about Joe?

1:09:24 > 1:09:27I found him in his village.

1:09:27 > 1:09:30We arrived after the Hema,

1:09:30 > 1:09:36when the clay had turned to red mud and run with blood, flowing over our toes.

1:09:38 > 1:09:41Joe was barely alive,

1:09:42 > 1:09:44tied to a chair

1:09:44 > 1:09:47among all the dead people.

1:09:49 > 1:09:51'They beat him.'

1:09:51 > 1:09:54'Cut him.'

1:09:54 > 1:09:56'And made him watch.'

1:09:57 > 1:09:59'He watched as they...

1:09:59 > 1:10:03'hunted down and set about butchering them all.

1:10:03 > 1:10:04'Old, young,

1:10:06 > 1:10:08'women, children.

1:10:09 > 1:10:12'All of them, butchered.

1:10:12 > 1:10:13'And worse.

1:12:05 > 1:12:09he could not believe in a God after what he had seen.

1:12:16 > 1:12:21'When he stood from the chair, it was with a poisoned heart he now saw the world.

1:12:24 > 1:12:26'And every man in it.

1:12:42 > 1:12:45'Father Joseph spared no-one.

1:12:47 > 1:12:51'It frightened many to see what this good man had become.

1:12:51 > 1:12:53'But it only made me sad.

1:12:53 > 1:12:57'I knew then, for sure, what I'd always only guessed -

1:12:57 > 1:13:02'that, regardless of the man, the demon lies in all of us.

1:22:05 > 1:22:07That was all.

1:22:07 > 1:22:10Only two.

1:22:10 > 1:22:12From so many.
