she's a part of all this.

Look at her - you know I'm right.

You can't trust anyone.

Put the chain on

if it makes you feel any better.

You could wish me luck.

Good luck.

I don't know what to do.

Leave this place.

- There is no happiness for you here.

- Please help me.

- I will. Come over here.

- What?

Quickly.

Can you see him?

No.

Jack, Jack, Jack!

No, he's not here.

Dave, Dave, come on, mate,

we need to get a wiggle on -

somebody must've heard

all that shooting!

Dave. Dave!

Aargh!

Aargh!

I take it you two had a good lawyer?

That's what happens

when the key witness dies.

Hey, get out of the f***ing car. Move!

Was with him till Dublin,

then they lost all trace.

Was the garda of no help?

- None.

- Typical.

Sorry to disturb you, sir, but there's been

an alert ofshots being fired.

- Bank?

- Domestic.

Have armed response been sent?

- Yes, sir.

- What you bothering me for, then?

Sir, when I entered the address

to send the units to, an alert came up.

- I haven't set up any alerts.

- That's because she's not speaking to you.

- Go on.

- It's the home of Natasha Evans.

OK.

We might finally get some answers

on where Jack's body is.

Go and find her.

Nothing?

Sh*t!

Everyone knew Carly.

She poured the drinks

and listened tothe lost souls.

Right now

I needed someone like that.

Right now I just needed someone

who wasn't trying to kill me.

- Carly, Carly, Carly! It's me.

- Jack? You're dead!

Yeah, nearly! Jesus Christ, Carly,

where did you learn to fight like that?

Bruce Lee movies - parents insisted.

And here's me thinking

I know everything about Carly.

Oh, you can talk,

OfficerAdleth?

It's good to see you.

- Did I hurt you?

- No.

You can say yes. Anyway,

thought they would have taught you

some slicker moves in the force?

No, theyjust stuck us in front of

a bunch of Police Academy films.

I take it you need something?

You know me so well.

It's small,

but it's off the beaten track.

You can come and go through the back,

no one will see you.

Thanks, Carly,

I just need somewhere to...

Yeah. It's yours.

I still owe you for...

Well, I haven't forgotten.

You don't owe me anything.

Your, er... brother was at the pub

asking for you.

Christ!

Yeah?

Well, people think you're dead.

It's probably safer that way.

I don't like those.

Don't worry, it's empty.

Look, Jack, why didn't you call?

- You know, I could have helped.

- You are helping.

- When you died...

- I didn't die, Carly.

- Clearly.

- I just disappeared.

I went to your memorial.

You died.

Anyway, your place was raided,

but... I got this.

- I hid this stuff.

- Yeah, I know, you told me.

Right.

I stole this from my brother.

That doesn't surprise me.

I don't think it surprised him either.

I haven't read this.

Erin's writing, isn't it?

Erm... Yeah.

Hey, I'm sorry.

I'll leave you alone.

You've got a f***ing nerve

coming round here!

All right, Terry, let her through.

This is my dad's business.

Yeah, well, I assumed control as soon

as your f***ed-up family imploded.

Just because you were my dad's fixer...

Listen, this is my firm now!

All you and your sister ever did

was distract the guv'nor,

which ended up getting him killed.

There's nothing for you,

unless you want ajob

in one of our knocking shops?

How f***ing dare you!

That's my dad's ring!

You're nothing

but a f***ing grave robber!

And you're nothing but a spoilt brat held up

way too high in your father's estimation.

You are not even fit

to sit in the same chair as my father.

- Terry, get her out.

- Get your f***ing hands off me!

- You're pathetic! You're weak!

- There's nothing for you.

There's no family,

there's no Jack, there's no hope.

Jack, we often losethethings we love...

..and if you're reading this,

then that's what's happened to us.

I wish you could learn to release

yourfear oftrusting anyone.

I already know the worst thing

about you, and it's OK.

If it's not too late, leave this life behind

and come find me.

I'm everything you'll ever need.

I'm dreaming.

Control, this is C071,

detectives on site now.

Hello, Matt. Doctor Poulton.

Detective Edwards,

always a pleasure.

This must be Detective Poon?

I know Edwards has been looking forward

to getting a partner for a while.

To be honest, I'm surprised to find you here

for something as trivial as aggravated burglary.

I'm sure it's nothing

to do with the current occupant.

I like to keep up with family business.

Well, clearly the gorillas

had a bit of a grudge to clear up.

Have you spoken to them?

They're both in hospital.

No one's talking.

What I want to know is how does

a girl that size take out two blokes?

Maybe she was taking

karate lessons, like you.

- Why don't you go and check the bathroom?

- Uniform already got it.

Yeah, but they might have

missed something.

So, Matt, what have we actually got?

Well, they weren't fighting each other.

Someone's done a good job on them

and probably got a kicking themselves too.

I'm testing the blood here

and I think we'll find it's not all theirs.

- That'll take a while, yeah?

- A bit.

OK, a bit.

Tell me something...

have you fingerprinted that?

I can do that.

Are you... expecting to find something?

- Well, we'll see, won't we?

- Yeah, I'll get onto it.

OK, great.

Oh, Matt, if you do find something,

- can you bring it to me first?

- Yeah, of course.

Good man.

Thanks, mate.

Right, OK,

I'm off in a minute.

Just remember to keep the blinds closed

and the lights low,

- if you do stay in.

- It's my fault.

Sid...

Nathan...

Erin.

I wiped out a whole family.

I don't even know

what the sentence for that would be.

Do you want me to stay?

Anyone who trusts you,

sooner or later ends up dead.

Leave me alone.

It's not too late.

You're not real.

No?

I'm the product of a troubled mind.

Do you want me to save you?

- Why? I couldn't save you.

- No.

Can you imagine what it's like

to dig your own grave

with a gun pointed at your head?

They still haven't found my body yet,

have they?

When they do, I want one of them

big East End funerals.

Horse-drawn carriages,

weeping women lining the streets.

The word "geezer" spelt out

in massive letters made offlowers.

That sounds more like you.

Kill 'em all, Jack.

Leave no one standing.

Then what?

Then you can live your whole life.

Whatever that'll be worth.

- Another drink, detective?

- No, thanks, Carly,

- I think four's my limit tonight.

- What, whilst on duty?

Are you sure? We've got

a special offer on at the moment.

- Yeah? Why's that?

- We're a bit overstocked.

We don't sell them like we used to.

Yeah, I've noticed you're a bit quiet here lately.

I'm sure things will pick up soon.

That would be great.

We'd love it if our regulars came back.

I'm sure.

Yeah, especially the ones

that have been away for a while.

Excuse me.

- Hello, Matt.

- Hello, detective.

I've got some

very interesting news for you.
