Episode 5

(Scratching) (Soft groan) (Scratching continues) (Scratching continues) (Scratching stops) (Sighs) (Grunts) (Phone rings) Hello? Hello.
(Woman) Don't leave me.
Who is this? Don't leave me.
(Phone rings) Oh! (Phone rings) (Woman) Don't leave me.
Don't leave me.
Don't leave me.
- A flush beats a full house.
- I don't make up the rules, Ryan.
I had a flush before and you said your full house beat it.
- But no, this is a royal flush.
- You make it up as you go along! - I'm not making it up.
- (Molly) You are! - Oh, don't go to sleep.
- (Molly) I need some rest.
Where are you going? Don't go to bed! Moll, it's only early, it's only two forty-five.
Oh come on.
I'll give you your money back.
- (Molly) Huh! Very likely! - Oh, rubbish.
Well, you better be ready for work at nine.
Don't spoil it.
(Ryan) Right.
I'm off.
See you in the morning.
(Buzzing) (Sighs) (Screams) Zoe?! (Screams) (Gasps) Thanks for last night.
You got to stop getting me into trouble.
You were the one who told those girls I owned a 16th-century mansion.
I'd already played the war hero card.
And we still got nowhere! You're a dark horse, you, aren't you? (Jed) Some of us have got some work to do around here.
(Man) Ah.
I've got a job for you.
I'm not going to lie to someone's husband again.
Nah, it's next door to mine.
- One-eleven, I think it's got rats.
- Gets better! Yeah, I don't even know if there's anyone living there, but I keep hearing scratching coming from the walls.
(Jed) Well, this is 111.
(Jed) I don't think rats did that.
Could be some sort of joke the builders are having.
Mark? Yeah.
Yeah, you're probably right.
I've worked on sites.
Seen plasterers do it.
Are you gonna have to fix this? Hmph! Yeah.
- I'll see you later then.
- See you.
(Woman) Don't leave me.
Oh, don't leave me.
(Man on TV) We have a competition, cos we have three books to give away.
Mandy, do you have a question? Yes, I have been watching Jeremy Kyle on series link all morning and there is nothing wrong with that.
- That's Jed's mum.
- What? She was a patient here.
Jed was born here.
- What? - She died in childbirth.
There's tons of stuff downstairs, I've been going through it.
Has Jed seen this? Not yet.
- Cos, well, it doesn't make sense.
- What do you mean? Well, Warren told Jed that Julia was pregnant when she came into the hospital, and Jed was born on the 10th of November 1985.
Yeah? So, if Julia was already here on New Year's Eve, that's eleven months.
So, Warren's lying, and someone inside the building had to have been Jed's dad.
Do you think it's this guy? I don't know who he is.
Could have been a patient, could have been a member of staff.
Ryan, there were all those rumours about members of staff abusing their patients.
Yeah.
I could find out who the guy is, but it might be something Jed doesn't want to know.
So, do I tell him or not? (Inhales deeply) No.
Not until you know for sure.
(Woman) Don't leave me.
Don't leave me.
Don't leave me.
(Knocking at door) - Hey.
You all right? - Hello, mate.
Help yourself to a drink, yeah? Cheers.
(Jed) Got your flights booked to Oz? - Yeah, I start on the fourteenth.
- Nice.
What is it, security job? Ha.
Fifth Northern Artillery.
Two tours of Afghanistan.
You think I'd settle for a security job? - What is it then? - Securityofficer.
You should think about coming out.
There's big opportunities for someone like you.
And what have you got here? What? Is it a girl? What? Cos they do have girls in Australia now.
Yeah, I never said it was a girl.
- She's not worth being stuck here for.
- You're the expert now? Mate, I don't have a problem with women.
They have the problem.
Starts off well and then they get so full-on.
Wanting to know where I live, what my name is, and all that.
And you closed the door when you finished? Yeah, I told you, definitely.
(Mark sighs) - Can we leave the match tonight? - You can crash at ours.
I'm not letting some squatter from next door drive me out of my place.
All right.
Catch you tomorrow.
(Door closes) (Sighs) (Woman on TV) And this makes your house look smaller.
Even in this oasis of contemporary calm, there's piles of this stuff leaching out in every corner.
(Channel hops) (Phone rings) (Woman) Don 't leave me.
Who is this? Whoever this is, I'm not interested.
Do you get me? Don't leave me.
Don't leave (Hangs up) (Dialling tone) (Phone ringing) Hello, mate.
I've just finished work, do you wanna come out? I haven't been getting much kip lately.
Maybe tomorrow, yeah? - Yeah, no worries.
- Oh! - You didn't move those flight tickets? - No.
They were on my worktop last night, are you sure you didn't pick 'em up? Yeah, I said, I'm sure.
(Mobile ringing) You gonna get that? Congratulate me.
I think I've got my very first stalker.
What? Yeah.
I've been getting funny phone calls, texts, you name it.
Really? Yeah, it's probably just some girl I've pissed off somehow.
Couldn't let go.
(Laughs) Yeah, I suppose that's what it could be about.
I've made my mistakes with girls, but I never set out to hurt anyone.
(Mark) That's the room next to mine.
These are from my apartment.
What? Am I making you five minutes late for golf! I'm busy.
So? Part of this floor has not been built according to these plans.
I've checked and rechecked.
These suites aren't the right size, that means there's dead space here.
You've read the plans wrong.
No, cos I spoke to the builders, you told them it was a feature of the original building - and they should leave it that way.
- You read it wrong.
- This needs to be opened up.
- I don't want it opened up.
- It's a complete waste of space.
- I said no! - No sign of forced entry.
- This psycho must have taken a key.
How could an ex-girlfriend have a key to next door? I don't know, maybe she came to view the flat, took it when no one was watching.
(Jed) Someone close, Mark? (Ryan) I should get it back online by the end of the day.
Goodbye.
Have you tried turning it off, then turning it on again? Never heard of that one.
Is that my laptop? That's where all your research is, and you need my help.
Have you been in my room? And you totally should be careful what you leave under your bed.
OK.
Is that the guy from the photos you found? - Yeah.
- Ray Bowman.
Staff nurse '83 to '89.
And this is where he lives.
Do you think there's a family resemblance? Ryan, call me back.
I've just seen something.
I- I can't get my head around it.
Something's not right, we should have (Inhales deeply, then screams and cries) Don't leave me.
Robert Bettany.
Fifth Northern Artillery Regiment? (Dog barking) (Birds twittering) Oh.
Hello? Hello? (Music playing quietly) Is someone there? Hello? (Door closes) Oh, come on! Come on! (Music starts playing) Are you OK? Last time I checked.
OK.
This is what I got last night.
What, you found something on Robert Bettany? He was Fifth Northern Artillery, like it says on his picture.
He went to war for about five minutes, as far as I can work out.
Probably cos his dad Edward pulled him out as soon as he could.
Yeah, same regiment as Mark.
Get this though.
There was a rumour Robert Bettany was having an affair with a servant girl.
Isobel Hyde, her name was.
Word got out, it was a big scandal.
He was gonna have to marry her.
But he didn't.
He married Elizabeth.
How? - Isobel disappeared over night.
- What do you mean "disappeared"? If your rich family owned an asylum, and you had someone in your life who had become inconvenient, where do you reckon she might end up? The bastard had her thrown in here.
He carried it on, and let her think she still had a chance.
She probably never even knew he was married.
(Phone ringing) Mark.
What? Mate, I must have been drugged.
I dunno what's happening here.
Calm down.
This woman was in my place she'd been going through my stuff, she could have done anything.
(Metallic squeaking) Is this blood? Why is there blood in here? What's she doing to herself? - That wasn't there before.
- It must have been.
You didn't tell me it was a hospice.
Well, I didn't know.
(Nurse) Ray.
Your grandchildren are here.
(Ryan) He's going to look quite different from that photo.
(Molly) I know.
Mr Bowman.
Sorry, you don't know us.
We want to ask you some questions about Bettany Hospital.
- Get out.
- Five minutes.
It's important.
- Out.
- Julia Gaskell.
(Molly) You knew her.
(Nurse) Is there a problem? - Ray? - No.
- Who are you? - You remember her, don't you? Keep in touch, yeah? I'm going to the airport.
I'm gonna get the next flight out.
Oh! (Sighs) Wait.
I don't even know what I'm running away from.
It could be kids having a joke.
Or it could be someone who actually wants to hurt you.
Who is bothered enough about me, to go to all this trouble? What about those photos you kept? That girl.
(Sighs) I let my guard down once.
Never again.
(Text message alert) Oh shit! That's Kate wanting me back at work.
Are you going to be around later? I'll let you know, yeah? (Electronic beeping) Yeah, I'm in the gym now, Kate.
Yes, I'll fix it.
Just let me get on with it.
Fine.
How gullible do you think I am? I saw you walk past the gym.
What are you doing down here, Jed? I was erm I'm looking for something.
Well, if it's dust you're after you've hit the jackpot, otherwise, get to the gym, you've got no business down here.
Yeah, well, neither does your dad, as far as I can see.
My dad? Yeah.
Since when does he bring his own rubbish to the incinerator? What do you imagine he was trying to get rid of? Don't tell me you haven't thought it yourself.
He was probably getting rid of stuff he didn't want the VAT man to see.
- Oh Christ, Kate, come on.
- Will you do what I'm paying you to do? I need that gym open first thing tomorrow morning.
(Molly) Were you and Julia? Were you together, Mr Bowman? I won awards for dancing.
Where are they? We're friends of Julia's son.
Did you know she had a son? You did know.
Somebody in that hospital got Julia pregnant.
Maybe it was someone who liked dancing with her.
I never touched her! - Not me.
- Someone else? Someone is lying about what happened to her.
Perhaps lots of people have lied.
I don't care if you weren't the one that did it, if you knew and you've been keeping quiet all these years then you are just as bad.
You don't know what it was like.
What they did to people who went against them.
What happened? She was raped.
By a member of staff? - You need to give us a name.
- You owe it to Julia to tell us.
- I don't know all their names.
- All? Every day.
More than one of them.
Sowhen she got pregnant .
.
they wouldn't take her to hospital.
They made her have the baby inside.
There were complications.
Julia died.
And so did the baby.
The baby? No, cos It died for three minutes before they got its heart started again.
Jed.
You bastards.
No one would have believed.
The policebribed.
They'd kill me.
- Caleb.
- Caleb? Caleb Bettany? What about him? Get out.
What about Caleb? Get out! (Bang) Kate.
Are you all right? - Course.
- What happened? Kate, talk to me.
I won't tell you again about that gym.
Mark? (Keys jingling) Mark! Blimey.
Jesus, what happened? Sarah (Groans) All right, come on get up.
Man, someone I- I got hit, behind me It's all right, take it easy.
Do you wanna sit down? How's my bag unpacked? Did you do that? No, mate.
Who's Sarah? Sarah's gone.
She had problems, you know? Breakdowns, depression.
I mean, she was great.
She was more than great.
But it was just always there.
I didn't think I could handle it, so I panicked, I left her.
(Mark exhales) One night, I got a call.
She was pleading with me, "Please give me another chance.
" I was half asleep, so I just couldn't be dealing with it so I hung up.
Next morning, her landlord rang.
I mean, he was trying to get into her house.
She was meant to be out and he didn't have a key, so he asked if I had one, so I went round there.
Well, turns out the reason why he couldn't get in was cos Sarah was slumped behind the door with a whole bottle of sleeping pills inside her.
It was, it was my fault.
If I hadn't left her, If I hadn't hung up You know this has got nothing to do with Sarah.
"Don't leave me.
" That was the last thing she said to me.
- Where's the money? - What? Dollars.
It was nearly a grand.
I put it right there, next to my passport.
How stupid do you think I am? - I've just come from the corridor.
- Hand it over.
- I haven't touched your money.
- First the tickets, then the cash.
No one else has been here! I get attacked in my own apartment, you just turn up like it's magic.
You think I'd do that? I don't know what you'd do.
I don't know you! Calm down.
There's no way I could have Wait.
Who has keys for next door? You do.
It's funny how this starts happening when you're about, "mate"! What is it? What? Are you sick in the head? Is that what it is? (Jed) Robert Bettany, died 1853.
And where did they bury you, Isobel? And you still just want to be with him, don't you, Isobel? Zoe! Ryan, come on.
I need your help.
Jed, Molly and I met this man today.
He was Wait, I'll start again.
I was in Grace's Look, there's no time, all right? We have to go right now.
- What are we doing? - Digging.
What? - You've got to be joking.
- Well, she wants to be with him, so we dig him up and we bury him with her.
How do you know it's gonna work? It's not as if you've done it before.
Oh God.
What are we gonna find? What do you think? Bones.
(Mobile ringing) (Woman) Don't leave me.
Don't leave me! (Phone ringing) (Ringing) (Music starts to play) (Ryan) Great.
Boy meets girl, girl gets dug up and reburied with boy's corpse.
- I love a happy ending.
- One more hole to dig.
(Huffs) (Grunts and groans) (Mobile ringing) (Grunts and groans) Yeah, you go.
I'll finish up here! (Gasps) Sarah.
Don't leave me.
(Groans) (Jed) Mark! There you are, Isobel, together at last.
(Jed) Mark! (Ryan) The paramedic said he'd been drinking.
They think he choked on his tongue.
(Jed) Bullshit.
(Ryan) Yeah, well As long as that's what they're thinking.
(Sighs) I could have stopped this, you know? You tried.
I told him to go.
I told him to get on that bloody plane.
Jed, you tried.
Everywhere I go, it's always the same.
What do you mean? People realise I'm a freak, they get scared of me, they blame me for stuff.
And then And then I end up back inside.
I just want a normal life, you know? I'm never gonna have that, am I? What's wrong, Kate? (Whispers) Nothing.
Kate, talk to me.
Nothing.
Everything's fine.
Everything's OK.
I need to get away from here.
What happened? I just can't be here.
Yeah, well, we'll leave, right? We'll leave, but you need to tell me what happened.
You were right.
My dad.
(Kate inhales sharply) I'm going to sort it out, OK?
