Jesse goes missing

20 years ago.

But his DNA turns up
at the murder scene

of Selena Callaway.

We think she's possibly

a prostitute.

- I'm looking for her.
- Selena worked for these guys

- and got involved in the scam.
- What scam?

They're blackmailing people
into giving names and credit histories.

This was a huge operation.



What did Selina have on her hard
drive that was worth killing her for?

You stay away from Alexa!

I got jumped this morning
by this guy Payne.

Porter & Starr.
Where Selena Callaway worked.

These can't be coincidences.

What's the connection?
Is it to do with Jesse?

What we were involved in
scares me.

If I find out what the deal is
with this Alexa Mills,

I'll get some answers about Jesse.

Selena Callaway's daughter
is called Alexa.

My dad's still missing.

You really haven't been trying.

I promise to make amends.

Your dad ran the investigation
into Jesse's disappearance.



Have you checked his old case files?

Where are the files?

- Rough day?
- Just get me drunk.

I hope we're watching this
together, and laughing...

somewhere sunny...

Australia, maybe.

Or Florida.

You always wanted to go
to Disneyland as a kid.

But if we're not together,

then something's
probably happened to me.

The information on this memory stick
is what got me killed.

But it's gonna keep you alive.

This is what I want you to do.

Morning, tiger.

I've got a lot of work on.

It's my mum's 60th.
I don't see her every day.

Lorraine.

It's Jennifer.

Who's gonna look after the kids?

Megan can look after herself.

- So can I!
- The boys can do after-school club.

Who's gonna look after Dad?

I can't baby-sit.
I've got work.

That's for you to sort out.

OK. OK, when are you back?

I don't know, Danny.
When you've sorted it.

Jennifer, I...

Jennifer? Jennifer!

Hey, it's Ally.

I'm probably on a call
because I'm so popular.

Yeah, it's me.
Head to the park.

I want to check out a new route
Jesse may have taken. Um...

Call me straight back.

Do you want to get

a breakfast smoothie
or something?

- Gotta replace those fluids.
- I just want to get to work.

We hooked up. It's not like
we have to get married.

How about we never
talk about it again?

Speechless, eh?

Do you mind if we stop for a sec?

I've just got to drop something off
for my dad.

Don't be too long, yeah?

Aw... can't bear to be without me, eh?

- Hey, guys.
- Hi.

Hello.

I wanted to call but I know that...
Stuart checks your phone.

- Yeah, but not in a psycho way.
- Right. Right.

Right.

So that's why he tracked you
to my flat last night.

That was my fault.
I was pissed.

And he was just worried.

I thought it would be funny to give
you a shock through your window.

- Certainly did that.
- I'm really sorry.

I'm such a dick.
Can I just take you out for breakfast

to make up for it?

I can't today.

I've got to try and find that Alexa.

- Coming in?
- Yeah.

- Hey, Mercy.
- Hiya.

- Any sign of Slade?
- Oh, nothing. Sorry.

And we can really use him back.

Well, I mean, I'm around.
What's up?

Rashan's been giving free prison
tats in memory of Britnay.

Proper biro and syringe job.

Now half the kids are feeling rough.

Yeah, that's infected.

- Shouldn't that be an "E"?
- No, it's an "A", for "Britnay".

Oh. Sorry.

- Here. Let me have a look at that.
- Yeah?

- Mercy.
- Yeah?

Do you know a girl called Alexa?
Been here a couple of days.

- She's got a cast on her arm.
- Oh, I think so.

She's definitely not a regular

but I think I've seen her
talking to...

to Lorna. Over there.

OK.

I don't know what to say, Dad.

I mean, she's funny.
She's hardy, but she's funny.

And she's pretty.
Oh, God, she's pretty, Dad.

Here we go.

I mean, she could probably do

with working
on her cardio a bit but...

- Is she blonde?
- Yeah. Why?

Sorry. I was just looking
for a glass of water.

- I um...
- Oh.

Right. Well, Ally...

this is my dad, Ron.

Dad, this is my workmate, Ally.

Hi.

She's gorgeous.

God, I don't even know
my dad's name.

My mum wanted a baby
but she couldn't be bothered with a man.

Clock was ticking so she had IVF
and brought me up on her own.

- Explains a lot.
- Such as?

Well, you're independent,
career-minded...

looking for a strong man
to call Daddy.

That's why you're not in profiling.

Hey, do you um... want me
to drop you off round the corner?

You know, arrive at work separately?

No, it's all right.
I'm too hungover to walk.

No. I don't "know her" know her.

Like, I only met her here.

Do you know where she is?

Did she mention any men at all?
Like a teacher?

My father teaches at my school.

Do any of you know
a Mr. Kenton Marshall?

Try the store cupboard.
In case he's doing Alexa again.

This is really important
because she could be in trouble.

Look, I don't know where she is.

But when I first ran away,
I stayed with mates. Yeah?

Till they started getting sick of me
or wanted something back.

Maybe she's doing the same.

All that back there, about Alexa.
It's just gossip.

- Hi.
- Hey.

Sorry I missed your call.
My phone died.

Oh, Karl. There's your girlfriend.

Hey.

- Did I miss anything last night?
- No.

Good.

Don't ask.

OK, this is the route that Marosi

confessed to.

So if we assume that he was trying
to put the investigation off,

then Jesse couldn't have gone
that way because of Slade and Pru.

I guess this is the area
that we need to be focusing on.

- Ally?
- What's the appeal?

Parents? Kids?
Why put yourself through it?

Love, duty, genetic hardwiring.

What's the alternative?

Oh, I don't know.

Self-fulfilment, world travel,
career advancement.

Hey, at least I get a lie-in.

Danny. Danny! Danny!

Listen. You do not go in there
on your own.

Remember what happened last year?

- Last year?
- Last year?

His friend's little brother
went missing from here.

Terrible.

You worked on that case, didn't you?
Jakob Marosi.

That's right.
Nasty piece of work.

Yeah, we're on something similar
at the moment. A missing kid.

Could still be alive
if we get to him in time.

I'd love to take a look
through those files.

Nothing in them.

Marosi's inside.

Yeah, I know, but the line
of inquiry could be useful.

Mm.

Off the record,
his parents are going spare.

Imagine if it were Danny.

I hid them in my basement.

Hey. What did you do that for?

Daniel! How many times?

Nice try,
but we don't have a basement.

Listen, when we get home, you put
that in the shed and leave it there.

No kicking it
against Nana's dresser again.

- OK?
- OK.

Let's go.

Ah, he kept Nana's dresser
in the basement.

Of our old house.

Come on.
OK, road trip, everybody!

Hey.

I'm here.

- I brought food.
- Thank you so much.

I've got you some apples
and a couple of sandwiches.

Thank you.

OK. So I have to go
back to class now.

Thank you.

Alexa?

Get out!

- Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait.
- Get out!

- Alexa. Alexa.
- Get off!

- Alexa, my name's Mark.
- Get out!

I help down at the shelter sometimes.

With Slade. You know Slade, right?
Remember Slade?

- Yeah?
- Yeah. Where is he?

Our friend died
and he had to go away.

Look at me.

I'm not gonna hurt you.
I'm not gonna hurt you.

I'm here to help you.

I'm here to protect you.
From Payne.

- And Kenton.
- What do you know about Kenton?

I've been hired by Kenton's family
to help find him.

- My father's gone missing.
- Simon needs a father.

He needs his routine. I appreciate
everything you've been doing

looking for Kenton.

All part of the ex-lover service.

But I heard about the two of you.
What he's been doing to you.

- What are you talking about?
- He's in a position of authority

and you're underage.

Do you think...

- No.
- It's not your fault.

Kenton's my dad.

If Kenton is your father, Alexa,
do you know where he is?

No.

I don't mean to be harsh,
but his family never mentioned you.

They don't know about me.

I didn't even know till last week.

Mr. Marshall...

Dad, had a thing with my mum
back in the day.

She got pregnant.
He didn't want to know.

She never really talked about it
and last year she put me in that school.

My mum was afraid something
might happen to her.

And it did.

She got killed.

Murdered.

Alexa, I want to help you.

I'm a friend. OK?

Why? Why do you want to help me?

My brother disappeared 20 years ago.

His DNA... turned up
at your mum's murder scene.

What?

We thought we had him back.
And you think it could be him?

But it turned out we were wrong.

This isn't Jesse.

And I don't know if he was a witness

or if he was trying to help your mum,

but her... him... you, Kenton...

Somehow it's all connected.

Well...

- This is it.
- Just in time for dinner.

You should stay here.
It's gonna be weird enough

without my mad dad, my kid and you.

Lucky me.

Oi!

Hi. Sorry to bother you.

This is gonna sound a little weird.
I'm a police officer.

It's nothing to worry about.
My family used to live here.

And my dad...

I think my dad might have
left something in your basement.

Are you Danny?

Come in.

But the holiday's been booked
for months!

- You know how important this case is!
- Get off her!

Oh!

Get out! Run!

We kept your measurements.

Oh, yeah.

We just felt it gave the place
a bit of character.

I've always wanted kids of my own,
but... Glyn's like...

You're gonna need a torch
if you're going in the basement.

Do you mind if I...

Glyn is gonna hate this.

Right. I just need you a bit more...

Right. Just...

Stay very still.

- That's great.
- OK. Great, great, great.

So, um, can we um...

Oh, yeah, sorry.

I get really claustrophobic
so I'm gonna leave the basement to you.

She gave me this a few weeks ago.

It's got files on it.

Of all the people they ever scammed.

She made me a video.

I hope we're watching this
together and laughing.

That's when she told me
about my real dad.

His name is Kenton Marshall.

That's why I've sent you
to that school.

In case you ever need him.
He's a good man.

He will look after you.

I didn't have nowhere else to go.

I didn't know
how he was gonna react.

If he'd even recognise her
after all these years.

But he did.

And he looked at me and he knew.

I showed him Mum's video.

They would have
forced you into their scams, Alexa.

So I tried to get out.

That's why Dominic Porter
had me killed.

You have to get as far away
from here as possible.

This memory stick is evidence
linking Porter to the scams.

If anyone comes after you,

you tell them you've got
the file somewhere safe.

Porter won't kill you
if he thinks he could get exposed.

Ask Kenton to help you.

He wanted to call the police,
but she said not to.

Porter's got a guy on the inside.

They'll bury the evidence
and make you disappear.

He told me to go
to my mum's place

and wait for him to come and get me.

I was careful but there was this guy
in a yellow car.

What did he look like?

Where are the files?

It all happened so fast.

I fought back. My mum
always made me carry rape spray.

That's when he broke my arm.

I ran but I didn't know where to go.

I'd heard about this shelter
for homeless kids.

It was the closest place
I could think of.

And that is when I met Slade.

- Are you all right?
- Please help me.

Shh. It's all right.
It's all right. You're safe.

He was cool...

And then my phone started ringing.

I didn't pick it up.
I didn't know who it was.

And he left a message.

Alexa,

it's me.

Look, I know you're scared.

But I've thought about what your mum
said and I didn't call the police.

I guess there's no point in going
public if we don't have to.

We can't just run, though.

So I tracked down Dominic Porter.

If he wants that information back,
I'm gonna offer it to him,

but only if he leaves you alone.

I'm gonna meet him at a hotel
called the Old Town.

I had no idea what to do
so I told Slade everything.

And he went to the hotel
to help Dad.

Slade went to the Old Town Hotel?

He said he'd only be
a couple of hours but he was...

three, four.

I got scared so I came here.

I just want to know what happened
in that hotel.

I just want to know
what happened to my dad.

Slade, it's me.

I've found Alexa.

She's scared. She needs to know
what's going on. So do I.

So can you call me, please?

- Have you got children?
- No.

- Boyfriend?
- No.

Girlfriend?

- Why not?
- Cause I'm happy as I am. All right?

OK.

In this job,
it's the best way to be.

No distractions.

No one to worry about.

Just the case.

Lorraine always used to hate
that house, when we lived here.

- Drive safe.
- Thanks.

She looks terrified.

Is it to do with her teacher?

It's a long story.

And to think we nearly sent
our daughter to that school.

Is it Slade?

Uh, no. No, it's not. No.

Hey, can I call you back in a bit?

Uh, no, Mark.
Simon's having a really bad day.

Do you mind talking
to him for a minute?

Mum, he doesn't do anything.

- Just give me a sec. OK?
- Mm.

- You all right, Alexa?
- Yeah. I'm gonna go for a cigarette.

OK.

How are you doing after last night?

Yeah. You know, fine.

I don't have a lot of time.

OK. I'm gonna put you
on speaker phone.

- Hey, Simon.
- Why haven't you found my Dad?

- Your Dad's alive.
- What?

If you want to see him,
come with me.

But... Who are you?

- Does it matter?
- I shouldn't just go.

One word, I make the call, he dies.

Move.

Alexa?

Alexa!

Alexa!

What are you doing here?
Where's she taken her? Who is she?

- She works for Porter.
- You work for Porter!

Not anymore.

I know where they're going.

Get in!
Come on, we're gonna lose them.

- Get in.
- I've been calling you.

- Where the hell have you been?
- I got your message.

What is that?

And this?

Hm, Dad?

Dad?

Dad! Dad!

They're what you were wearing
on that day.

Daniel!

You were so...

destructive.

When we'd argue...

- Daniel! Come back here!
- Ray!

You'd get so upset...

Smashing things...

with that bat.

It was past midnight
when you got back.

But you wouldn't say
where you'd been.

You wouldn't say... anything.

So...

Where were you, Daniel?

Where'd you go after you'd run out?

Alexa.

Do you remember me?

I used to help out your mum.
Where's my dad?

Oh, that is cold.

Oh, no, your dad's dead.

Bring her inside.

If Porter gets what he wants,
he'll kill her.

The memory stick.

- How do you know about that?
- She told me everything.

Get in there.

I believe you have something
that belongs to me.

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

Who are you?
Why do you even care?

It's just the kind of guys
that we are. OK?

- Bullshit.
- Say that again.

Says a wannabe pimp.

Alexa is like a daughter to me.

She's already got a dad
and his name's Kenton Marshall.

Your mother tried to blackmail me
with information I owned.

That's why she's dead.

Yeah, it's all there.

Check the file details.

She's made a copy.

And your daddy told us you had it.

Before we killed him too.

Right,

I'll go around the front
and cause a diversion.

Diversion?

- Surely we have to call the police.
- There's no time.

You've got to go over the fence
and through that door at the back.

Find her and bring her out.

The entry code's two-seven-six-nine.

You got "two-seven". I've got "six-nine".

Slade, come on.

I've got a daughter just like you.

She swears she doesn't smoke.

- Ow.
- But I can smell it on her.

Make sure it's all there.

Oh, what is this guy,
a Bond villain?

More like a footballer.

Jesus.

- Where have you been all this time?
- Come on.

Slade. Shit.

When did you become Bruce Willis?
This is ridiculous.

It's encrypted.

It would be a shame to hurt you.

Oh, shit.

- Mark, what were your two numbers?
- What do you mean, my two numbers?

- Your numbers. What were they?
- I wasn't listening.

Oh, shit: 69?

No, I had 69.

Remember?
I'd remember 69. It's funny.

Tell me the encryption code!

Slade, come on.

Six-nine-two-seven.

Oh, shit!

What's going on?

Ah...

Two men coming through
the back door!

She must have been followed.

Shawn. Do you hear me?

- Oh, shit.
- Other way round. Two-seven-six-nine.

Two-seven-six-nine.

Turn that bloody sound off!

Holy shit!

He's got an actual Batcave.

Ow!

Who are they? Look.

What are we doing?

We keep moving. We just hope
that Payne knows what he's doing.

Who are they?

I've got one, boss.

- What are you doing here?
- I'm here for my girl.

Why are you still here?
Go and help find the others.

That was a gun.
What if they shot Payne?

Then we find Alexa ourselves.
Come on.

Look, you go that way. OK. Let's go.
Go, go, go, go. We'll be fine.

Why are you in my house?

What took you so long?

Who are you with?

- Who are you with?
- Got one more!

- You?
- Who is he?

He was poking around my office.

What are you, hm?
Selena's boyfriend?

Brother?

It doesn't matter.

Just let her go. OK?

Do you want me
to call off the police?

No. No need.

They'll see I was acting
in self-defence.

Two men break into my home...

Armed.

One of my men tries to stop them...

and they killed him.

Jeez! Oh my God...

Hey.

In the ensuing struggle,
I manage to disarm them

and then kill them myself.
Unless you give me the code

for the memory stick.

It's your only way out.

Please. Please.

You see him?

He almost tied your whore mother
to me by getting himself caught.

That's how much
I want this to be over.

So give me the codes.

Listen to me, Alexa. Just...
Just give him the code.

OK?

Don't know it, Slade.

No, it's fine.

You've got no choice.
Just give him the code.

- He's right, you know.
- It'll be fine.

It's my birthday.

It's my birthday.
It's zero-six-zero-seven.

Now!

Who did you send to kill Selena?

My brother's DNA
was at the murder scene.

Who did you send?

Who did you send?

- Oh, my God!
- It's all right.

- Whoa.
- It's all right.

It's all right. It's OK.

- Oh, Jesus.
- You've got to go.

- No. No.
- Yes.

I'll wipe the CCTV.

- You were never here.
- What about you? No.

No.

No. No. No, no, no.

It's better if they get me.
Or they'll come after you.

And that's not what we wanted
for your future.

"We?"

You helped... You helped my mum?

You set it up with my mum
so I'd meet my dad?

- No.
- Get her out of here.

- No.
- Come on. Alexa, come on.

- No, please! Please, please, please.
- Alexa, we have to go.

Look... My name is Mark Wells.

- I'm a solicitor.
- Mark!

When you get to the police station,
call me.

All right? I'll represent you.

It's OK.
Everything's gonna be all right.

How's it gonna be all right?

Hm?

Cause my mum's dead, my dad's dead
and the only other person

who's ever cared about me
is going to prison.

I'm sorry.

Where are we going?

It's over.

Alexa's in the van.
You can go home now.

This is Alexa. This is Laura.

Hello. Can I give you a hug?

We did good, Mark.

You're gonna have to
tell me everything.

OK.

Help!

It all started with Alexa
coming into the shelter.

She was terrified.
And she told me everything.

The man in the yellow car
who had hurt her.

About Porter. About her mother.

Heard her father's message
about wanting to meet them.

But these people,
Mark, they don't play nice.

Kenton was walking into a trap.

So I went to the hotel,
but I got there too late.

I saw this guy park up.

It was the same yellow car Alexa said
she saw and I knew it was him.

So I followed him in.

I searched the body,
found his phone

and texted Porter
that the job had been done

so they'd think Kenton was dead

and then saved his number
onto my phone.

I wrapped the body up

and I moved his car around the back.

And I waited until dark
to get the body out.

And then I hid Kenton

in a safe house,

which is when Laura's son came to you

and you got involved.

Payne attacked you.

We tracked him down to Porter & Starr.

The same company Selena worked for.

I saw him in there with Porter.
They were arguing.

And now I know it was over Alexa.

And Porter wanted
to use her in his scams.

She's a child.

Payne was trying to protect her.

And the rest you know.

You knew about the whole thing.

You let me follow this trail
and you knew where it was gonna lead.

You had all the answers
and you pretended that you didn't.

Why would you do that?

Who did you send?

I saw you with Porter then
and you wanted to kill him.

And that's what happens, Mark.

OK? And I can't...

I don't want you becoming me.

- What does that mean?
- It means I'm not gonna lose you. OK?

I can't.

You all right?

Yeah, I'm OK.

Slade, you've killed.
You've killed somebody.

- And, Slade...
- Shh...

You killed someone.

And all this seems to have been
since Jesse's name came back up.

It just seems to be death
and murder, and it's just...

I'm tired, man.

I know.

And if all this isn't enough...

The studio
where the girls were kept...

They found Jesse's DNA
at Newman's crime scene.

Maybe Jesse killed Newman.

That's impossible.

How do you know?

Because I killed Newman.
