[officer] Sir.
- They found another skull.
- [Broome] Jesus.
- [Erin] How many?
- [chattering on police radio]
They're saying as many as 15.
Fifteen!
The ones on top are still identifiable,
but further down,
they kinda blend into each other.
It'll be weeks
before we get a definite ID.
Can they confirm Carlton Flynn?
Doesn't look like it.
He wouldn't have been in there very long,
and the remains are... older.
- Doesn't mean he's not dead, though.
- How do you mean?
Well, this could be the place
where the killer just puts them, you know,
days, weeks, months after.
We just don't know.
Do you think Stewart Green's down there?
Well, I'd say we're gonna find out.
[Ray] I know what happened
to Stewart Green.
I know what you did.
Meet me at the pier.
I'll wait for you there.
[line hangs up, beeps]
[phone voice] To repeat this message,
press one...
[phone beeps]
I'm just going to the shops!
[phone ringing]
[Megan] Hello.
[Frances] There's a woman in my room!
[gasps] There's a woman. Help me!
- Frances, calm down.
- [Frances] You must come!
I can't! I can't deal with this right now,
but if you wait...
[Frances] She told me I must call Cassie.
Who did?
Who was it?
- Frances!
- [clattering over phone]
- [dial tone humming]
- Oh shit!
[speaking indistinctly]
[Megan] Frances?
Frances.
Frances, are you okay?
- There was a woman.
- Uh...
What woman?
I thought she was gonna kill me!
- There's no one here now, Frances.
- She left.
Did you recognize the woman?
Yes.
I think
she looked like
an angel.
[sighs] Frances.
[sighs]
Do you remember a long time ago,
when we used to talk about everything?
You're the closest thing to a mum
that I've got.
You're the only one that's always...
really known me.
And I'm scared.
I'm really scared.
[sighs]
[shuffling]
- [yelps]
- [grunts]
[intense music playing]
[yells]
[screams]
[eerie music playing]
So what are you saying?
[Leanne] We're triangulating his phone,
but there's nothing yet.
[Broome] As soon as Ray Levine turns on
his phone, I want to know about it.
[Leanne]Well, hang on.
Detective Broome!
- You can't...
- No, don't touch me!
- Hey, Leanne.
- Calm down.
- Mr. Flynn, why are you here?
- I saw it online.
Someone posted a photo.
So what's happening?
- You shouldn't be here.
- These woods, this is where Carlton...
- Mr. Flynn.
- So why didn't you tell me?
I'm going out of my mind!
There's nothing to tell yet.
There's no confirmation that Carlton...
Don't give me that crap.
- Is he there?
- All I can tell you is this.
Human remains have been discovered.
There's no indication that it's Carlton.
Broome! We've got a location
on Ray Levine's phone.
I've gotta go.
I'll call you the minute I hear anything.
[siren wailing]
[woman on recording]
So sorry I can't get to the phone.
Please leave me a message,
and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
[line beeps]
[man] That woman in Vipers,
she knows something.
Why are you not answering your phone?
Come on.
Come on, Cassie.
There he is!
Authority granted.
[sirens wailing]
[Erin] Head to the beach!
Clear the area! Clear the area!
[people yelling]
[officer 1] Armed police!
Stand still!
Clear!
- [Ray grunts]
- Move out of the way! Get back!
[panting]
- [officer 1] Stand still!
- [officer 2] Armed police! Stand still!
Get down on your knees!
Get down! Down on your knees!
Keep your hands over your head!
Ray Levine, I'm arresting you
on suspicion of murder.
You do not have to say anything,
but it may harm your defense
if you do not mention when questioned
something you later rely on in court.
Cuff him.
[indistinct chattering over police radio]
There's been an attack on Megan Pierce.
- What?
- She was stabbed.
- Her attacker was killed in the scuffle.
- Killed?
The dead woman fits the description
of one of Harry Sutton's killers.
- Is Megan okay?
- Yeah, mainly blood loss, shock.
Okay, you go to the crime scene.
Check that she was on her own.
I'll follow laughing boy to the station.
What a fuckin' day.
[ominous music playing]
- [Dave] Uh... ward 22?
- Down there on the left.
Oh, thank you.
[woman on PA] Please remember
to use the sanitizing stations
when traveling around the hospital.
[door opens]
Excuse me, sir...
- It's okay.
- She's my fiancée.
- Dave.
- Oh, Megan.
Thank God you're okay.
- We could have lost you.
- Where are the kids?
The police are looking after them.
It's okay, they're safe.
This is all my fault.
All my secrets. I'm so sorry.
Listen, I love you so much.
I love you.
[Megan sobs]
These are for you.
I've got a deal for you.
I'm listening.
My solicitor is gonna advise me
to "no comment" my way
through this interview.
- And I'm happy to do it.
- That's your prerogative.
But... if you let me speak to Cassie,
I'll tell you everything I know.
Can't be done. Totally unheard of.
You're under arrest for multiple murders.
We set the rules.
- Fine.
- Fine.
In that case, no comment.
She's been attacked, Ray.
She's in hospital.
Is she okay?
She could have been killed.
Very nearly was.
Just give me ten minutes with her,
and then you can ask me anything you want,
and I'll tell you the truth.
Please.
Was it hard?
Lying all those years?
It got easier.
The truth wasn't really an option.
And the further you get from it,
the less sense it makes to tell anyone.
I knew, Meg.
Not about the lies, but...
It always felt like there was
something holding you back. Something...
[sighs]
[sighs] I'm so sorry, Dave.
I never meant to put our family in danger.
The truth is out now,
and we can... move forward.
Yeah.
I'm sorry to disturb you.
There have been developments.
If you're well enough, I need your help.
[sirens wailing]
[seagulls calling]
We'll be outside the whole time.
We tracked the car
of the partner of Megan's attacker.
There's ANPR hits here, heading
towards the coast. Last one was here.
Shit. That's Vipers. When?
Two hours ago.
Shit.
You stay here with Ray Levine.
He gets ten minutes with Megan.
Shit.
[Lorraine on recording] Keep it short.
No one wants to hear your podcast.
[line beeps]
Are you all right? What happened?
[sighs] I'm fine.
We're not here to talk about me.
What do you want, Ray?
I just wanted to speak to you.
Okay.
So...
speak.
[sighs shakily]
Did you kill all those men, Ray?
No.
I loved you, Cass.
- I loved you more than...
- I know.
I've never felt that way before.
Or since. But after you left...
I just need you to tell me the truth, Ray.
I will.
But first, I need you
to tell me the truth.
About what?
You killed Stewart Green.
[ominous music playing]
[phone line ringing]
[Rudy] Hello?
Rudy, it's Broome. Is Lorraine there?
She's not answering her phone.
[Rudy] No, she's left.
Do us a favor. Go into the club,
see if there's a young, tall guy in there.
He's got dark hair.
He's a bit preppy looking.
- [Rudy] Wait, what is...
- Just... just fuckin' do it.
[Rudy] He was here earlier, or someone
like that was, sitting at the bar.
When did he leave?
- [Rudy] Not sure. About an hour ago.
- When did Lorraine leave?
[Rudy] Just after.
Fuck.
- Why the hell would you say that?
- Because...
I came across his... body in the woods.
He was dead.
[whispers] I saw you.
I saw you run away.
Did you kill him?
You asked me to go up there.
You left me a message.
What message?
You left me a message at the club.
I never left you a message.
- So how did you know to go up there?
- Because I waited for you like usual.
I saw you leave the club,
and I followed you.
...gear, make sure you give...
[man] I've taken some photographs
down south. I just need some advice.
[Ray] I knew what had been going on.
Stewart... threatening you
and God knows what else.
So if you didn't
leave me that message, who did?
Stewart, trying to
get you there alone.
No.
Because when I got up there...
[eerie music playing]
...he was covered in blood.
Yeah, right.
- He was dead.
- You'd already killed him.
No.
I told you.
I was behind you.
I saw you run, and...
Cassie!
...I should have gone after you,
but I... I just needed to see
what it was you were running from.
You thought I killed him?
What did you do, Ray?
I... I panicked. He was dead.
I thought you'd killed him.
I had to protect you.
You would have gone to prison, so I did
the only thing that I could to help.
I got rid of the body.
I dragged him out of the woods.
I got him into the car,
and I drove somewhere remote.
And then I got myself an ax.
And I... chopped him up.
[grunting]
It was like a trance.
I somehow
managed to turn off my mind, and...
And...
I put the pieces into plastic bags.
I weighed them down with stones...
[grunts]
...and I threw them
where they would never be found.
[phone line ringing]
[recording] Hi, it's Cassie.
If you can't reach me,
it's because I'm too busy having fun.
Leave a message!
Hi, it's Cassie. If you can't reach me,
it's because I'm too busy...
Hi, it's Cassie...
[echoing] It's Cassie...
[Fester] Fuck me. What the fuck? Ray?
Uh, Ray, what happened?
I can't remember.
And then I... came to find you,
to see if you were okay,
but you weren't there,
and you weren't picking up your phone and...
The... the days turned into... to weeks,
and still you didn't reappear.
And I was left with this...
[sobs] ...this image... image of...
[sniffles]
...blood and...
But you... you'd gone,
and you never came back.
You never came back.
I'm so sorry, Ray.
[doorbell buzzes]
Come on. Come on, come on, come on.
[grunts]
Hello? [panting]
Lorraine?
Lorraine?
Is anyone here?
Lorraine?
Hello?
Is anyone here?
[suspenseful music playing]
[breathing heavily]
[suspenseful music crescendos]
[eerie music playing]
Broome.
Put the weapon down.
- Lorraine...
- Just put the weapon down.
And if you've, uh... if you've called
for backup, call them off.
- Lorraine, whatever's happened...
- [Lorraine] Call off your backup.
Now.
[panting] Okay.
This is DS Broome to Control.
Cancel all units.
[woman over radio]
Control canceling units.
- Status update?
- All in order.
What happened?
He wanted information
about the whereabouts of Carlton Flynn.
Carlton's dad hired him.
He was gonna kill me.
Just like he killed Harry.
And Tawny.
But it didn't work out
the way he thought it would.
He could dish it out,
but he couldn't take it back.
Like so many men.
They deserve it.
Don't you think, Broome?
Men like that.
Oh Jesus, no!
Lorraine, no.
[sobbing] No, no, no.
One a year.
At Carnival.
Why?
Why?
For revenge.
I...
I don't understand. W...
- We're in love.
- [Lorraine] No, no, please. Please.
Don't get sentimental.
It... it doesn't change
the way I feel about you.
What?
There are more than a dozen dead men
lying in a hole in the ground.
We found the bodies!
And they were all horrible,
nasty, shithead men who hurt women.
You know them. You've seen the type.
So you killed them?
I wanted to make sure they could never lay
another finger on a woman ever again.
[sighs]
[sniffles] I need a drink.
Do you want a drink? Yeah, let's get
a drink. You always liked a drink.
[sobs]
[liquid pouring]
You know I used to be married, right?
- I remember you talking about it.
- [Lorraine] Mmm.
Yeah, I got hitched young. [chuckles]
Too young.
Yeah, we moved in together.
We got jobs, fucked a lot. [sighs]
And then one day, for no good reason,
he beat the shit out of me.
He apologized. You know, the usual.
"Won't happen again."
But guess what? It happened again.
And again.
Life wasn't treating him so great,
you know,
so he did what all shitty little men do,
and he took it out
on the one person that cared about him.
So guess what happened next?
Come on. I mean,
like... like the irony of life.
Like life is really
taking the piss out of you.
- You got pregnant.
- Bingo.
[laughs]
And, you know, for a few months,
things did actually improve.
Everything that people said was true.
A baby does make things better.
But then, uh... one night, he...
he complained about his food.
Said it was tasteless, hmm? Got all pissy.
So I said, um...
[laughs] I said, "Hey, you should try
cooking yourself sometime."
And that was that.
He punched me to the floor.
Put some kicks in...
to the stomach.
He ruptured my uterus.
You know what that means, don't you?
No kids.
Ever.
I am so sorry
you had to go through all that.
Stop. Don't do that.
Don't.
Please.
Put the knife down.
[Lorraine] You know, I could have had him
put away for killing our baby,
but... we covered it.
We pretended it was an accident.
And then Carnival came,
and he... he had a few drinks.
He tried it on...
and I... I...
I just wasn't ready, you know?
I... I couldn't stand his hands on me.
So I told him no,
and... and he got angry, and... [sobs]
...he tried to, um, force himself on me.
So I killed him.
[gasps]
Just like that.
I got a knife,
and I stuck it in him.
It was the best thing I ever did.
He had taken my child's life.
I had taken his.
And no one found out?
No.
No, I just told people he'd left me,
you know, done a runner.
Missing people aren't dead people.
And scummy men go missing all the time.
About a year later, I moved too.
I came here, got a job at Vipers.
And it was there that I realized
that there are way too many men
treating women like he treated me.
And they are just getting away with it.
[rock music playing]
[Lorraine] And Vipers was
the perfect place for men to try it on.
- Come on...
- Piss off.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Fuck off!
[Lorraine] So I used to tell them
that I'd arranged for them
to meet a girl in the woods.
They always fell for it.
[eerie music playing]
And then I'd dump their bodies
in the bunker.
- [glass smashing]
- [men yelling]
[Lorraine] You're gonna laugh
at this, but, uh,
I used to think of myself
as an avenging angel.
And I can sleep at night.
You know, I'm not... I'm not preying
on the vulnerable or the weak.
You killed Stewart Green.
To help Cassie.
I, uh... I got him to the woods.
I said that Cassie had left him a message
to meet her there.
- What are you doing here?
- [chuckles] It's a surprise.
From me and Cassie.
[grunting]
Please! No! Stop!
No! Stop! [grunts]
- [Lorraine panting]
- [Stewart choking]
[gasps]
[Lorraine] And then I left a note
for Cassie, telling her to meet Ray there.
I wanted her to see
that she was free of Stewart.
But when I went back,
the body was gone.
And pretty soon, so was Cassie.
But... why bring it all back up?
Why go to Cassie
and tell her that Stewart was still alive?
She came back one night to Vipers
in this disguise.
I couldn't believe it
when I saw her on the CCTV.
I just wanted to know what had happened.
You know, why she'd left.
What she had done with Stewart's body.
I had to talk to her.
I just had to find out.
And it brought me back to you.
I'm sorry.
I love you.
I thought that, um...
[sobbing] ...you know, we could, um...
- With the time you have left...
- I know.
I would have liked that.
Why did you have to do this?
[sobbing] I'm so sorry.
[gasps] I'm dying, Broome!
I don't want to spend
my last days in prison!
- Lorraine...
- I love you!
I love you so much!
Lorraine, please.
- No, Lorraine.
- I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry!
- Please, Lorraine. Please.
- [sobbing]
No! No!
[Broome] I'll be with you, okay?
I'll stay close.
[breathing shakily]
[sniffles]
[sirens approaching]
Lorraine Griggs...
I am arresting you on suspicion of murder.
You do not have to say anything...
[crying] ...but it may harm your defense
if you do not mention when questioned
something which you...
you later rely on in court.

[Lorraine] I set up Ray Levine.

All right, piss off

Well, 17 years,

Mrs. Shaw, I presume?

- [both chuckle]
- I loved your speech.
- I meant every word.
You're okay, right?
You can accept it, my past?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's not, um...
Aah...
It's me.
[sighs]
There's something I need to tell you.
Okay, so I did something, for Kayleigh.
It's not a big deal.
But we... had this father-daughter thing,
like a pact.
Um...
So if she was ever in trouble
or she needed a ride home,
and she calls me,
I go, no questions asked, all right?
So, uh... one night,
a few months ago, you were sleeping.
She calls, asking me
to pick up her and Bea.
Um, so I drive out, middle of nowhere.
[Dave] Get in.
And then as we're driving off, I see
this other car discarded by the bushes.
A few days later,
I saw something about the car on the news.
I didn't want her getting mixed up
in anything, so I went back,
and the car was still there.
No one's gonna find it now.
I was protecting Kayleigh,
but nothing's come of it.
And seriously, I don't think
there's anything to worry about.
It's gone. It's done with.
[sighs, laughs]
And that is it.
There's definitely no more secrets.
- Oh no, you don't. No skulking out here.
- [laughs]
- You lot are the stars of the show.
- [Dave chuckles]
It's Darren's DJ set in a minute. Come on.
- I just... I need just two minutes.
- Okay.

[eerie music playing]
[Kayleigh] He was chasing us, Mum.
We were so scared. You have to believe me.
Of course I believe you.
You can tell me anything.
I'm here for you.
He was chasing us
through these woods near Vipers.
[suspenseful music playing]
[gasping]
[panting]
When I fucking find you...
[rattling]
- [yelps]
- Bitch! You spiked me!
[groaning]
- [sighs]
- Why'd you run away from me?
I was so scared out there!
- I'm sorry, but...
- No, I don't wanna hear it!
My mum's going apeshit that I'm not home.
We've gotta get out of here.
Give me the keys.
Give me his fucking car keys, Kay!
[Kayleigh] Mum, it all happened so fast.
I wanted to tell Bea,
but I just... couldn't.
We took the back roads. She was scared
the car would be reported stolen. Then...
- [Bea] Fuck.
- [Kayleigh] What is it?
[Bea] He's out of petrol.
- No, we can't be!
- [Bea sighs]
[Kayleigh] So we pushed
the car off the road.
I knew he'd get out
when he came round from the drugs.
As soon as I saw that he was missing,
I went back to check,
and the car was gone.
[intense music playing]
[Carlton] No! No! Help me! Help! Help me!

[officer] Sir.
- They found another skull.
- [Broome] Jesus.
- [Erin] How many?
- [chattering on police radio]
They're saying as many as 15.
Fifteen!
The ones on top are still identifiable,
but further down,
they kinda blend into each other.
It'll be weeks
before we get a definite ID.
Can they confirm Carlton Flynn?
Doesn't look like it.
He wouldn't have been in there very long,
and the remains are... older.
- Doesn't mean he's not dead, though.
- How do you mean?
Well, this could be the place
where the killer just puts them, you know,
days, weeks, months after.
We just don't know.
Do you think Stewart Green's down there?
Well, I'd say we're gonna find out.
[Ray] I know what happened
to Stewart Green.
I know what you did.
Meet me at the pier.
I'll wait for you there.
[line hangs up, beeps]
[phone voice] To repeat this message,
press one...
[phone beeps]
I'm just going to the shops!
[phone ringing]
[Megan] Hello.
[Frances] There's a woman in my room!
[gasps] There's a woman. Help me!
- Frances, calm down.
- [Frances] You must come!
I can't! I can't deal with this right now,
but if you wait...
[Frances] She told me I must call Cassie.
Who did?
Who was it?
- Frances!
- [clattering over phone]
- [dial tone humming]
- Oh shit!
[speaking indistinctly]
[Megan] Frances?
Frances.
Frances, are you okay?
- There was a woman.
- Uh...
What woman?
I thought she was gonna kill me!
- There's no one here now, Frances.
- She left.
Did you recognize the woman?
Yes.
I think
she looked like
an angel.
[sighs] Frances.
[sighs]
Do you remember a long time ago,
when we used to talk about everything?
You're the closest thing to a mum
that I've got.
You're the only one that's always...
really known me.
And I'm scared.
I'm really scared.
[sighs]
[shuffling]
- [yelps]
- [grunts]
[intense music playing]
[yells]
[screams]
[eerie music playing]
So what are you saying?
[Leanne] We're triangulating his phone,
but there's nothing yet.
[Broome] As soon as Ray Levine turns on
his phone, I want to know about it.
[Leanne]Well, hang on.
Detective Broome!
- You can't...
- No, don't touch me!
- Hey, Leanne.
- Calm down.
- Mr. Flynn, why are you here?
- I saw it online.
Someone posted a photo.
So what's happening?
- You shouldn't be here.
- These woods, this is where Carlton...
- Mr. Flynn.
- So why didn't you tell me?
I'm going out of my mind!
There's nothing to tell yet.
There's no confirmation that Carlton...
Don't give me that crap.
- Is he there?
- All I can tell you is this.
Human remains have been discovered.
There's no indication that it's Carlton.
Broome! We've got a location
on Ray Levine's phone.
I've gotta go.
I'll call you the minute I hear anything.
[siren wailing]
[woman on recording]
So sorry I can't get to the phone.
Please leave me a message,
and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
[line beeps]
[man] That woman in Vipers,
she knows something.
Why are you not answering your phone?
Come on.
Come on, Cassie.
There he is!
Authority granted.
[sirens wailing]
[Erin] Head to the beach!
Clear the area! Clear the area!
[people yelling]
[officer 1] Armed police!
Stand still!
Clear!
- [Ray grunts]
- Move out of the way! Get back!
[panting]
- [officer 1] Stand still!
- [officer 2] Armed police! Stand still!
Get down on your knees!
Get down! Down on your knees!
Keep your hands over your head!
Ray Levine, I'm arresting you
on suspicion of murder.
You do not have to say anything,
but it may harm your defense
if you do not mention when questioned
something you later rely on in court.
Cuff him.
[indistinct chattering over police radio]
There's been an attack on Megan Pierce.
- What?
- She was stabbed.
- Her attacker was killed in the scuffle.
- Killed?
The dead woman fits the description
of one of Harry Sutton's killers.
- Is Megan okay?
- Yeah, mainly blood loss, shock.
Okay, you go to the crime scene.
Check that she was on her own.
I'll follow laughing boy to the station.
What a fuckin' day.
[ominous music playing]
- [Dave] Uh... ward 22?
- Down there on the left.
Oh, thank you.
[woman on PA] Please remember
to use the sanitizing stations
when traveling around the hospital.
[door opens]
Excuse me, sir...
- It's okay.
- She's my fiancée.
- Dave.
- Oh, Megan.
Thank God you're okay.
- We could have lost you.
- Where are the kids?
The police are looking after them.
It's okay, they're safe.
This is all my fault.
All my secrets. I'm so sorry.
Listen, I love you so much.
I love you.
[Megan sobs]
These are for you.
I've got a deal for you.
I'm listening.
My solicitor is gonna advise me
to "no comment" my way
through this interview.
- And I'm happy to do it.
- That's your prerogative.
But... if you let me speak to Cassie,
I'll tell you everything I know.
Can't be done. Totally unheard of.
You're under arrest for multiple murders.
We set the rules.
- Fine.
- Fine.
In that case, no comment.
She's been attacked, Ray.
She's in hospital.
Is she okay?
She could have been killed.
Very nearly was.
Just give me ten minutes with her,
and then you can ask me anything you want,
and I'll tell you the truth.
Please.
Was it hard?
Lying all those years?
It got easier.
The truth wasn't really an option.
And the further you get from it,
the less sense it makes to tell anyone.
I knew, Meg.
Not about the lies, but...
It always felt like there was
something holding you back. Something...
[sighs]
[sighs] I'm so sorry, Dave.
I never meant to put our family in danger.
The truth is out now,
and we can... move forward.
Yeah.
I'm sorry to disturb you.
There have been developments.
If you're well enough, I need your help.
[sirens wailing]
[seagulls calling]
We'll be outside the whole time.
We tracked the car
of the partner of Megan's attacker.
There's ANPR hits here, heading
towards the coast. Last one was here.
Shit. That's Vipers. When?
Two hours ago.
Shit.
You stay here with Ray Levine.
He gets ten minutes with Megan.
Shit.
[Lorraine on recording] Keep it short.
No one wants to hear your podcast.
[line beeps]
Are you all right? What happened?
[sighs] I'm fine.
We're not here to talk about me.
What do you want, Ray?
I just wanted to speak to you.
Okay.
So...
speak.
[sighs shakily]
Did you kill all those men, Ray?
No.
I loved you, Cass.
- I loved you more than...
- I know.
I've never felt that way before.
Or since. But after you left...
I just need you to tell me the truth, Ray.
I will.
But first, I need you
to tell me the truth.
About what?
You killed Stewart Green.
[ominous music playing]
[phone line ringing]
[Rudy] Hello?
Rudy, it's Broome. Is Lorraine there?
She's not answering her phone.
[Rudy] No, she's left.
Do us a favor. Go into the club,
see if there's a young, tall guy in there.
He's got dark hair.
He's a bit preppy looking.
- [Rudy] Wait, what is...
- Just... just fuckin' do it.
[Rudy] He was here earlier, or someone
like that was, sitting at the bar.
When did he leave?
- [Rudy] Not sure. About an hour ago.
- When did Lorraine leave?
[Rudy] Just after.
Fuck.
- Why the hell would you say that?
- Because...
I came across his... body in the woods.
He was dead.
[whispers] I saw you.
I saw you run away.
Did you kill him?
You asked me to go up there.
You left me a message.
What message?
You left me a message at the club.
I never left you a message.
- So how did you know to go up there?
- Because I waited for you like usual.
I saw you leave the club,
and I followed you.
...gear, make sure you give...
[man] I've taken some photographs
down south. I just need some advice.
[Ray] I knew what had been going on.
Stewart... threatening you
and God knows what else.
So if you didn't
leave me that message, who did?
Stewart, trying to
get you there alone.
No.
Because when I got up there...
[eerie music playing]
...he was covered in blood.
Yeah, right.
- He was dead.
- You'd already killed him.
No.
I told you.
I was behind you.
I saw you run, and...
Cassie!
...I should have gone after you,
but I... I just needed to see
what it was you were running from.
You thought I killed him?
What did you do, Ray?
I... I panicked. He was dead.
I thought you'd killed him.
I had to protect you.
You would have gone to prison, so I did
the only thing that I could to help.
I got rid of the body.
I dragged him out of the woods.
I got him into the car,
and I drove somewhere remote.
And then I got myself an ax.
And I... chopped him up.
[grunting]
It was like a trance.
I somehow
managed to turn off my mind, and...
And...
I put the pieces into plastic bags.
I weighed them down with stones...
[grunts]
...and I threw them
where they would never be found.
[phone line ringing]
[recording] Hi, it's Cassie.
If you can't reach me,
it's because I'm too busy having fun.
Leave a message!
Hi, it's Cassie. If you can't reach me,
it's because I'm too busy...
Hi, it's Cassie...
[echoing] It's Cassie...
[Fester] Fuck me. What the fuck? Ray?
Uh, Ray, what happened?
I can't remember.
And then I... came to find you,
to see if you were okay,
but you weren't there,
and you weren't picking up your phone and...
The... the days turned into... to weeks,
and still you didn't reappear.
And I was left with this...
[sobs] ...this image... image of...
[sniffles]
...blood and...
But you... you'd gone,
and you never came back.
You never came back.
I'm so sorry, Ray.
[doorbell buzzes]
Come on. Come on, come on, come on.
[grunts]
Hello? [panting]
Lorraine?
Lorraine?
Is anyone here?
Lorraine?
Hello?
Is anyone here?
[suspenseful music playing]
[breathing heavily]
[suspenseful music crescendos]
[eerie music playing]
Broome.
Put the weapon down.
- Lorraine...
- Just put the weapon down.
And if you've, uh... if you've called
for backup, call them off.
- Lorraine, whatever's happened...
- [Lorraine] Call off your backup.
Now.
[panting] Okay.
This is DS Broome to Control.
Cancel all units.
[woman over radio]
Control canceling units.
- Status update?
- All in order.
What happened?
He wanted information
about the whereabouts of Carlton Flynn.
Carlton's dad hired him.
He was gonna kill me.
Just like he killed Harry.
And Tawny.
But it didn't work out
the way he thought it would.
He could dish it out,
but he couldn't take it back.
Like so many men.
They deserve it.
Don't you think, Broome?
Men like that.
Oh Jesus, no!
Lorraine, no.
[sobbing] No, no, no.
One a year.
At Carnival.
Why?
Why?
For revenge.
I...
I don't understand. W...
- We're in love.
- [Lorraine] No, no, please. Please.
Don't get sentimental.
It... it doesn't change
the way I feel about you.
What?
There are more than a dozen dead men
lying in a hole in the ground.
We found the bodies!
And they were all horrible,
nasty, shithead men who hurt women.
You know them. You've seen the type.
So you killed them?
I wanted to make sure they could never lay
another finger on a woman ever again.
[sighs]
[sniffles] I need a drink.
Do you want a drink? Yeah, let's get
a drink. You always liked a drink.
[sobs]
[liquid pouring]
You know I used to be married, right?
- I remember you talking about it.
- [Lorraine] Mmm.
Yeah, I got hitched young. [chuckles]
Too young.
Yeah, we moved in together.
We got jobs, fucked a lot. [sighs]
And then one day, for no good reason,
he beat the shit out of me.
He apologized. You know, the usual.
"Won't happen again."
But guess what? It happened again.
And again.
Life wasn't treating him so great,
you know,
so he did what all shitty little men do,
and he took it out
on the one person that cared about him.
So guess what happened next?
Come on. I mean,
like... like the irony of life.
Like life is really
taking the piss out of you.
- You got pregnant.
- Bingo.
[laughs]
And, you know, for a few months,
things did actually improve.
Everything that people said was true.
A baby does make things better.
But then, uh... one night, he...
he complained about his food.
Said it was tasteless, hmm? Got all pissy.
So I said, um...
[laughs] I said, "Hey, you should try
cooking yourself sometime."
And that was that.
He punched me to the floor.
Put some kicks in...
to the stomach.
He ruptured my uterus.
You know what that means, don't you?
No kids.
Ever.
I am so sorry
you had to go through all that.
Stop. Don't do that.
Don't.
Please.
Put the knife down.
[Lorraine] You know, I could have had him
put away for killing our baby,
but... we covered it.
We pretended it was an accident.
And then Carnival came,
and he... he had a few drinks.
He tried it on...
and I... I...
I just wasn't ready, you know?
I... I couldn't stand his hands on me.
So I told him no,
and... and he got angry, and... [sobs]
...he tried to, um, force himself on me.
So I killed him.
[gasps]
Just like that.
I got a knife,
and I stuck it in him.
It was the best thing I ever did.
He had taken my child's life.
I had taken his.
And no one found out?
No.
No, I just told people he'd left me,
you know, done a runner.
Missing people aren't dead people.
And scummy men go missing all the time.
About a year later, I moved too.
I came here, got a job at Vipers.
And it was there that I realized
that there are way too many men
treating women like he treated me.
And they are just getting away with it.
[rock music playing]
[Lorraine] And Vipers was
the perfect place for men to try it on.
- Come on...
- Piss off.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Fuck off!
[Lorraine] So I used to tell them
that I'd arranged for them
to meet a girl in the woods.
They always fell for it.
[eerie music playing]
And then I'd dump their bodies
in the bunker.
- [glass smashing]
- [men yelling]
[Lorraine] You're gonna laugh
at this, but, uh,
I used to think of myself
as an avenging angel.
And I can sleep at night.
You know, I'm not... I'm not preying
on the vulnerable or the weak.
You killed Stewart Green.
To help Cassie.
I, uh... I got him to the woods.
I said that Cassie had left him a message
to meet her there.
- What are you doing here?
- [chuckles] It's a surprise.
From me and Cassie.
[grunting]
Please! No! Stop!
No! Stop! [grunts]
- [Lorraine panting]
- [Stewart choking]
[gasps]
[Lorraine] And then I left a note
for Cassie, telling her to meet Ray there.
I wanted her to see
that she was free of Stewart.
But when I went back,
the body was gone.
And pretty soon, so was Cassie.
But... why bring it all back up?
Why go to Cassie
and tell her that Stewart was still alive?
She came back one night to Vipers
in this disguise.
I couldn't believe it
when I saw her on the CCTV.
I just wanted to know what had happened.
You know, why she'd left.
What she had done with Stewart's body.
I had to talk to her.
I just had to find out.
And it brought me back to you.
I'm sorry.
I love you.
I thought that, um...
[sobbing] ...you know, we could, um...
- With the time you have left...
- I know.
I would have liked that.
Why did you have to do this?
[sobbing] I'm so sorry.
[gasps] I'm dying, Broome!
I don't want to spend
my last days in prison!
- Lorraine...
- I love you!
I love you so much!
Lorraine, please.
- No, Lorraine.
- I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry!
- Please, Lorraine. Please.
- [sobbing]
No! No!
[Broome] I'll be with you, okay?
I'll stay close.
[breathing shakily]
[sniffles]
[sirens approaching]
Lorraine Griggs...
I am arresting you on suspicion of murder.
You do not have to say anything...
[crying] ...but it may harm your defense
if you do not mention when questioned
something which you...
you later rely on in court.

You're okay, right?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's not, um...
Aah...
It's me.
[sighs]
There's something I need to tell you.
Okay, so I did something, for Kayleigh.
It's not a big deal.
But we... had this father-daughter thing,
like a pact.
Um...
So if she was ever in trouble
or she needed a ride home,
and she calls me,
I go, no questions asked, all right?
So, uh... one night,
a few months ago, you were sleeping.
She calls, asking me
to pick up her and Bea.
Um, so I drive out, middle of nowhere.
[Dave] Get in.
And then as we're driving off, I see
this other car discarded by the bushes.
A few days later,
I saw something about the car on the news.
I didn't want her getting mixed up
in anything, so I went back,
and the car was still there.
No one's gonna find it now.
I was protecting Kayleigh,
but nothing's come of it.
And seriously, I don't think
there's anything to worry about.
It's gone. It's done with.
[sighs, laughs]
And that is it.
There's definitely no more secrets.
- Oh no, you don't. No skulking out here.
- [laughs]
- You lot are the stars of the show.
- [Dave chuckles]
It's Darren's DJ set in a minute. Come on.

[Kayleigh] He was chasing us, Mum.
We were so scared. You have to believe me.
Of course I believe you.
You can tell me anything.
I'm here for you.
He was chasing us
through these woods near Vipers.
[suspenseful music playing]

[panting]
When I fucking find you...
[rattling]
- [yelps]
- Bitch! You spiked me!
[groaning]
- [sighs]
- Why'd you run away from me?
I was so scared out there!
- I'm sorry, but...
- No, I don't wanna hear it!
My mum's going apeshit that I'm not home.
We've gotta get out of here.
Give me the keys.
Give me his fucking car keys, Kay!
[Kayleigh] Mum, it all happened so fast.
I wanted to tell Bea,
but I just... couldn't.
We took the back roads. She was scared
the car would be reported stolen. Then...
- [Bea] Fuck.
- [Kayleigh] What is it?
[Bea] He's out of petrol.
- No, we can't be!
- [Bea sighs]
[Kayleigh] So we pushed
the car off the road.
I knew he'd get out
when he came round from the drugs.
As soon as I saw that he was missing,
I went back to check,
and the car was gone.
