We Hunt Together (2020) s02e04 Episode Script

1
(Liam) Why do you draw them?
'Cause I see them every time
I close my eyes.
Sorry, I'm late. They haven't
started yet, have they?
I'm gonna sort everything out.
Just don't tell him.
(Susan)
You think Freddy's involved?
We think he's killing people
that have shown
undue interest in Freddy.
Robert had
some audio recordings of you
in your previous line of work.
I want my tapes, Larry.
(Larry) I had myself
a little underground auction.
How do I get those files to you?
You can bring them here.
- (Jackson) You think she's here?
- Yeah. I think she's here.
(Jackson) You think he's here?
(Lola) I saw a man with a spider
drawn on the back of his mask.
- Where's your mask?
- I put it back in the box!
Jackson, get an ambulance! Now!
(siren blaring)
(Jackson) Come on. Careful. Slowly.
Move back, move back.
(Lola) Nobody leaves!
Right. You, you and you.
This group here have got no ID.
(police officer) No recording, sir!
(Jackson) Just take it easy.
Hang in there Dom, okay,
Hey. I am right here Dom. Okay?
I am right here.
- Stay with me.
- (paramedic) Okay, three, two, one!
No, no, no. I said names and IDs.
Okay. If they've got no ID,
they go in that group
going back to the station, yeah?
Anyone with blood on them
gets cuffed
and searched in that corner
until we can watch the CCTV.
Larry!
Where's my CCTV?
I, yeah, it,
it was planned for installation
in time for opening
but my man let me down.
- You're kidding me, right?
- What do you want me to say?
That you've got
some fucking CCTV, Larry.
That's what I want you to say.
Useless dick.
Hey Ryan, you need
to check their ID again on exit
and cross reference
with the list downstairs.
- Will do, boss.
- (gate clanking)
Hey! Sir.
(Jackson) Wait!
Ryan, get that door!
Sir, please wait!
- (bike bell rings)
- (thuds)
(cyclist) What the hell
are you playing at?
- Sorry. Okay. It's the police.
- (engine revving)
(cyclist) Prick!
Can we go?
(sighs)
(ominous music)
(tense music)
Oy! Take your mask off.
(tense music continues)
(giggles)
(suspenseful music)
(pants)
(suspenseful music continues)

(Lola) Larry told us that
Freddy gave him a mask to wear.
Told him to get into the spirit.
We think Dom was a mistake.
She was never the intended target.
Do you have a suspect?
Erm
There were 187 people in the club.
We've, yeah we've accounted
for 165 of them,
and, erm,
interviews are being conducted
as we speak, ma'am.
Do you have anything at all, Lola?
Other than
a cartoon fucking spider?
Two men fled the scene, ma'am.
Look. Right.
Suspect A got away
through the fire escape,
and, erm, Suspect B,
er, exited the building
through the smoking area
and then left on a motorbike.
Right, could've been a drug dealer.
Did you get the plates?
No, I didn't get the,
I didn't get the plates. No.
Maybe you should go home
and get some sleep.
Okay. Chat soon, bye.
That was Del.
Dom's still in the ICU.
(Jackson) They operated
a few hours ago but, er,
it's still too early to say.
We just wanted to have a look,
Susan. We had no idea it would
- Didn't you?
- (knocks)
- Not now, Ryan.
- I was told it was urgent, sir.
"Hope your friend is okay,
lots of love. Freddy."
(ominous music)
(phone rings)
Hello, Lester.
(woman over phone)
Hi, Frederica Lane?
- Yes.
- I'm calling from Elm Grove Hospice
with some sad news
regarding Sheila Brown.
I'm afraid she had a stroke
yesterday, poor dear.
She's stable
but in a serious condition.
She's asked me to reach out to you.
She says she used to look after you
many years ago
at a juvenile centre.
(gasps)
- (hissing)
- (suspenseful music)
No. Sheila, please!
- It wasn't me. It wasn't me!
- (woman over phone) Hello? Hello?
- (suspenseful music continues)
- (heavy breaths)
Okay, thanks, Del.
Let us know if there's any change
and I'll be in to visit soon.
Just, er
just take care of her okay?
Er, okay bye-bye.
Lola, I think I've found something.
Jesus Christ!
Jesus Christ. Sorry. I did knock,
but you were in the shower
so I just assumed
- you couldn't hear me?
- So you just let yourself in?
Yeah, you gave me
your keys and everything.
- So, I thought you wouldn't mind.
- I didn't give you my keys
I told you to put my keys
back through the door.
- I'm sorry. I don't think you did.
- Well that's not it.
Yes well, it is what I said. Well,
obviously, that's what I meant.
I'm sorry, but there's something
I really want to show you.
- Huh? What's this?
- I've brought some beers for you.
Okay.
You okay. Can I please
show you this? Please!
So, I'm at Freddy's
and she's telling me this story,
about a bee fighting with a spider
in her window.
- A spider?
- (Liam) Exactly, right?
And at the end of the story,
there's a bird, it swoops down,
and eats the bee or the, maybe,
it eats the spider, I don't know,
I can't remember, it was better
when she told it. Anyway.
Freddy tweets about a web,
er, Shannon mentions a spider
in the video when she gets murdered
and then I'm scrolling
through the comments
on the video last night.
And I come across this.
"Birds of a feather,
we hunt together."
Right and the word together is
actually a link, takes you here.
Okay.
So, what's the password?
(Jackson) Thank you. Please do.
Bye now.
- (Gil) How's she doing?
- No change.
Would you like some coffee
before you go?
Actually, I'm sorry love,
I'd really like to swing by the
hospital before work. Do you mind?
Of course not.
Send Del my love.
Bye now, you little rats!
- (Daniel) See you, Dad!
- (Maya) Bye.
(door opens)
(door closes)
(Liam) I've tried everything
I can think of to do with
birds and bees,
and fucking spiders.
Everything.
Do you think your people at the lab
will be able to crack it?
Passwords are always
really hard, but, erm
Ugh! Come on, come on, let's see.
Go for it.
(exhales deeply)
Erm
(Liam) No.
No, I've tried that one.
(Lola groans)
It's funny,
you typed that because
I was kind of thinking
the same thing.
Mm.
Oh.
Oh, well right, okay. Well, erm
You're in luck because I needed
a five-minute break.
Maybe sex.
Shall we?
(Liam chuckles)
Or maybe I should just give you
a call tomorrow.
I'm, I'm
I'm really sorry.
I just got the word "swallow"
come into my head.
- What?
- "Swallow".
Swallow. It's a bird.
- It's a type of bird, Liam.
- (Liam) So's a woodpecker.
No. Maybe I should just give you
a call tomorrow, yeah?
Yeah.
Hmm.
Do you want me
to call you tomorrow?
Well, I mean, want is
a very strong word,
isn't it? But, erm
(scoffs)
Sure. Whatever.
- Morning, Samir.
- (sighs)
I haven't managed
to get it working yet, sorry.
Okay. Is there a reason why?
It's a vintage music box.
It's not exactly
my area of expertise.
Well, can you find someone
who can fix it please?
- It shouldn't be that hard.
- (phone chimes)
I'll get on it, sir.
Can I just? That's my breakfast.
Okay. I will get you
your breakfast.
- You make some calls.
- All right, grumpy.
(siren blares in distance)
(payphone ringing)
(ringing continues)
(suspenseful music)
(ringing continues)
(Freddy) Hello?
Hello?
(scoffs)
(scoffs)
(suspenseful music continues)
Sheila. Her name's Sheila.
(suspenseful music intensifies)
(Jackson chuckles)
Just checking up on everyone
who's close to Freddy, okay?
It's called police work.
Absolutely. Good work.
Talking of which,
is, er, Susan in, do you know?
But maybe there is something
a bit off about him.
Don't you think?
He's a bit full on, in he?
Well, if he's a person of interest,
you obviously have to end
your personal relationship
with him immediately.
Yeah, that's what I thought.
Or, maybe he likes you.
And I won't tell anyone
that you accessed his records,
for no
legitimate reason whatsoever.
Susan's in her office.
Okay, why?
Where have you been anyway?
What's?
Hi, I had a call a few days ago
about Sheila Brown.
I was just calling to check on her.
(woman on phone) Yes.
Her conditions still stable.
Oh.
Okay. So she's still,
hanging in there?
(woman) Yes, she is.
Of course, I'll be in touch
if there's any changes.
That's great. Thank you.
(sighs)
(dings)
(suspenseful music)
(snickers)
Er, no, sir, that's not correct.
It wasn't
an official operation. No, no.
The officers were at the nightclub
in a social capacity only.
Er,
I don't know, sir.
Possibly a birthday or, erm
A baby, I think. Erm, one of them's
having a baby, Lester.
Yeah, okay, will do, thank you.
- And what was that?
- That was just
- a little dance, ma'am.
- A little dan
(sighs)
Anything at all
from the club interviews yet?
Nothing yet, but, erm
I told you I bumped
into a pizza delivery cyclist
whilst I was chasing subject B
out of the club, right?
- Yes, and
- Well, erm,
it struck me that he was wearing
one of those cameras on his helmet.
So, I tracked him down
to get hold of the footage.
He rode past the motorbike moments
before he crashed into me.
Erm, you can see here,
clearly, the plates.
Well, go on then. Who is it?
The motorbike is registered to
Chief Superintendent Lester Price.
(suspenseful music)
(loud thud)
(suspenseful music continues)
(ominous music)
(voicemail) This is Henry's phone.
Leave a message.
And if I like you enough,
I might get back to you. Bye.
(Freddy) Hey mate, it's me.
Erm, give me a call
when you have a minute.
I thought we could go on
a little adventure.
(ominous music continues)
(phone ringing)
Del, what's happened? How is she?
- Morning.
- Morning, ma'am.
- Have you heard yet?
- Heard what?
- (Jackson) Dom's awake.
- Thank god.
Yeah, they're keeping her in
for now,
- but, er, it looks positive.
- Well, that is wonderful news.
Okay, I have spoken to Lester.
And he's agreed to meet you
at his house at ten o'clock.
I'll be coming with you.
- (phone rings)
- (camera shutter clicking)
(Jackson on phone)
Lola? Is everything okay?
Oh, god, sorry. I'm still in bed.
Take your time. Erm
We'll be speaking to Lester
at his house at ten o'clock.
- So, I'll see you there.
- Hmm. Brilliant, thanks.
Excellent. So, I'll meet
you there outside
(camera shutter clicking)
(phone rings, vibrates)
- What?
- You hung up on me
without saying goodbye.
- (Lola over phone) No, I didn't.
- You said, "Brilliant, thanks."
And then you hung up.
Well, I said it in a way
that made it very clear
that I was finishing
the conversation.
"Brilliant, thanks." End call.
Look, can we just agree
to say goodbye to one another
at the end of a call from now on.
- For me.
- Bye, Jackson!
See, that wasn't so
(chortling)
(car door opens in distance)
(suspenseful music)
(Lola) Yes. Can we circulate
a white Ford transit van,
index number, Yankee, Golf,
61, Hotel, X-ray, Uniform.
Yeah, he's just damaged
my parked car
while leaving a parking bay.
It's minor damage,
but please can you put
a flag out for DS Lola Franks
to be updated on any sightings?
Yes. Thank you very much. Okay.
(suspenseful music continues)
I won't be a minute.
I think I left it charging.
(Henry) Can you grab me a pear?
(gasps)
Fuck.
- Getting your mail again, love.
- (sighs)
Thanks, Dianne.
- More fan mail I bet?
- Oh, I don't know about that.
(ominous music)
Are you all right?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Oh, it's nice to get away
from everything though, isn't it?
Just the two of us.
You know, on Friday,
it's 15 years to the day
since Frederica died.
(Henry) I don't know whether
it's got anything to do with it,
but I've been dreaming
about her a lot recently.
I guess I just still
really fucking miss her.
I keep thinking
about the last time I saw her.
The way the sun glinted off that
butterfly clip she used to wear
in her hair.
(Freddy) God, she was so lovely.
I thought you said you fell asleep
together in those woods,
and when you woke up, she was gone.
Yeah.
So, the last time you saw her
would have been night time,
wouldn't it?
(Young Frederica) Get of me!
(suspenseful music)
(Henry) Freddy?
Well, yeah, I'm
I didn't literally mean
the last time I saw her,
I just meant,
you know that last day
we had together in the woods.
Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, of course.
(suspenseful music continues)
Who's Sheila Brown?
(Lester)
Thank god DC Parkes is okay.
I think we should keep her identity
out of the press
for as long as possible.
(Susan) Hmm, I agree, sir.
I mean we're fairly sure Dom wasn't
the intended target anyway
so the fact
that she's a police officer
shouldn't really come into play.
Okay, well that's positive.
(inhales deeply)
Christ though, have you ever
known anything like this, Susan?
I'm very sorry, sir,
but we should probably attend
to the housekeeping.
Of course, don't apologise.
By the way, have you found my bike?
- Sadly not.
- Well, do keep looking.
It was a present
from my father-in-law.
(Susan) Hmm.
Could you tell us where you were
on Wednesday night, please?
- I was here with my wife, Samantha.
- Oh, how is Samantha?
Still smarting from the whipping
you gave her at tennis last month.
Yes well, I've done a lot of work
on my backhand.
- And
- (Susan) So
Saturday the 26th, sir?
Well, Saturdays a date night
which usually is a glass of wine,
and catching up
with Great British Bake Off, right?
I'll call her. She'll confirm.
Hi, love.
Do you mind popping down
to the garden for a minute?
Thanks.
Big house.
You said, the motorbike was stolen
around 8pm on Wednesday night?
From outside of Tesco's, yeah.
So, why didn't you report it stolen
until after 11pm?
Ah.
- Here she comes to save the day!
- (Lester and Samantha chuckling)
We were just talking
about the battering
Susan gave you
the other week, love.
- (chuckles)
- I know! That backhand!
I've done a lot of work
on it, so
Oh, Saturday the 26th love. Can you
remember what we were doing?
Er, we stayed in.
Watched Bake-Off!
Excellent. Okay, Jackson?
My daughter loves bake-off.
It was Graham
that was voted off
that week, right?
Well, that would be difficult
seeing that he was still
on the show this week.
In fact, I think he was Star Baker.
(suspenseful music)
(chuckles)
(Freddy) She made life hell for me.
I guess over time,
I just suppressed it.
(sighs)
God, mate, I'm so sorry.
Isn't that strange?
How you can forget
about something like that?
I just wish
you'd told us at the time.
We had no idea
what you'd gone through.
It was only the eyes
that stayed with me all this time.
What are you going to say to her?
(sighs)
She took so much from me.
I just want to take
a little bit back.
Hi, I'm here to see Sheila Brown.
(nurse Kalowski)
Yes. I'll show you where she is.
Follow me.
(ominous music)
Please, Sheila. It wasn't me.
(ominous music continues)
Please, it wasn't me.
I didn't do anything!
No. Please!
No. No!
(heavy breaths)
(monitor beeping)
(tense music)
(breathes deeply)
(Baba) Don't do it.
I miss you.
Then do not do it.
I know you, Freddy.
Do not do it.
(grunts)
(shouts)
Okay!
Okay.
(ominous music)
(exhales slowly)
I forgive you.
(breathes deeply)
How was it?
I forgave her.
(scoffs)
How do you feel?
(inhales deeply)
Free.
I feel free.
(upbeat music)
(car horn honks)
All right. There you go.
Homemade pizza night.
You made them yourself?
No, but I did cook it myself.
And I only burnt two of them
so not a bad hit rate?
Which ones are burnt?
Is mine burnt?
- (phone rings)
- (Daniel groans)
Er, if you don't mind. It's Dom.
Dom, please tell me that's you.
(Dom over phone)
Hey, sir. How are you?
(sighs, chuckles)
Oh, so much better
for hearing your voice.
How are you?
What are the doctors saying?
I'm feeling good, yeah.
Couple more days,
I'll be back on my feet.
(wheezing)
I, I don't believe it.
I mean, you're amazing.
(Dom) Thanks.
Erm, listen.
I was coming to the club
to tell you something.
(Jackson) Yes, but you don't have
to worry about that now.
But it's kind of important.
And I just really need
to tell you this, so
Okay. What's up?
The other day,
I went to NCT with Del
Uh-huh.
(suspenseful music)
Thanks, Dom.
(Daniel) Yours's got onions,
red peppers, everything.
I've got literally just cheese
and these green things.
- (Maya) I like my piece.
- (Daniel scoffs)
(Daniel) Dad, can you tell Maya
to share her pizza with me?
Dad. Dad?
Erm, er, I'm just going
to the bathroom.
Will you excuse me
for a moment, please?
And, er, don't eat my pizza
while I'm gone. Okay?
- (Daniel) Want some?
- (Maya) No.
(suspenseful music continues)
(Maya) Oh, fine.
Aah. There she goes!
- Be more careful next time, yeah?
- Mm-hm.
- Hey, you're a lifesaver.
- Cheers.
Have a good one, man!
(tense music)
(gasps)
Oh, my god.
(tense music continues)
(car door opens)
(car door closes)
(engine starts)
Cup of tea I reckon.
Am I allowed to say,
I was proud of you today?
Or does that make me sound like
your Dad or something?
I was though.
(Henry) You know that song
"Proud Mary"? I think,
I'm gonna write a cover version
called "Proud Henry".
It's just me and a ukulele.
(chuckles)
I'm sorry, Baba
Do you think I'm a good person?
What?
(inhales softly)
Do you think I'm a good person?
I think you're the best person.
I always have.
(ominous music)
Love me.
Okay.
(tense music)
(grunts)
(whimpers)
(blows air)
(tense music continues)
- (Liam) Lola, what the fuck?
- Stand back!
Whoa! What
(scoffs)
Wait what you, what you gonna do?
You gonna spread me on toast?
- What?
- It's a fucking butter knife, Lola.
Would you put it down? What the
fuck you're doing in my van?
What were you doing
in Freddy's flat? Huh?
I saw you, Liam,
I saw you going in.
And I know that you've been
creeping around my flat, too.
So what's going on?
You tell me now?
I'll explain. If you would just
calm down for a second, please.
- Look, I can Just calm down!
- Step back!
Please. Look, I'll show you!
If you just calm down for a second,
please. Can I show you?
Look, that that's my old house
over there, right?
- Huh?
- I'm only allowed
to see my daughter, Ruth,
on the weekends,
after, fucking unsupervised.
But today it's her birthday and
So, I could drop a wee present
around for her, so
(panting)
What's any of this got to do
with Freddy then, huh?
Look, I'm in recovery, Lola.
(groans)
All right!
Gambling, I lost everything.
And if I want to get
proper access to Ruth,
I have to prove that that I've got
my life back on track.
So, I have to have a proper job,
I have to have a house.
I have to pay off
all my debts and that
Look, see two weeks after,
I got the Freddy writing gig.
Simon Goodbridge's family
approached me.
And they offered me
a hundred grand.
If
If, I can find something
that leads to Freddy's arrest.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Look, I know,
I know, I know, all right, okay.
Look, I was getting nowhere
with this. But then
- But then I came along, yeah?
- What?
Inside information of the case
and a good fucking time
all in one go.
- No, you're not!
- You must have been laughing, ah!
No, it wasn't like that.
It wasn't like that.
You know, it wasn't like that.
Look, I fucking,
I think you are a
Give me your keys, I need
to get back to my car.
- You're not gonna talk about this?
- No
(Liam) Come on, please.
Lola, I found a letter
in Freddy's flat
(Liam) Where's the birthday girl?
Where is she?
(exclaims)
(grumbling)
(phone ringing)
- (ringing continues)
- (grunts)
(Jackson on phone) Lola, the baby,
it's, it's not mine.
(Jackson sobs)
(ominous music)
(sighs)
(exhales deeply)
I knew I'd find you here.
They do a wonderful Rogan Josh.
I've spoken to Gil.
She's told the kids
that you're gonna be working late.
So, you're very welcome
to stay at mine.
Thank you. I'll find somewhere.
She also told me to tell you
that she isn't sure about the baby.
I think she was kind of waiting
to see which way it would go.
Gil asked me to try
and get you to call her.
(Lola) But if you want my advice,
you should never speak
to that woman again.
Well, that's great
to get your thoughts, Lola.
But don't expect me
to take love advice
from someone who hates
themself so much
that they can't envisage a world
where everyone else
doesn't hate them too.
(ominous music continues)
I'll make the bed up,
just in case. Okay?
(door opens)
(suspenseful music)
(knocking on door)
(knocking harder)
Thomas! Open the door!
(Jackson)
I just wanna talk, Thomas!
Come downstairs, I wanna talk.
Thomas!
Oy! Shut up!
(Jackson) Yeah. Fuck off!
- Jesus, Jackson! What?
- Come down, I wanna talk.
I'll call you tomorrow, okay?
Come down and talk.
What do you think I'm gonna do?
I just think it would be better
if we spoke tomorrow. On the phone.
Spoken like a true lawyer.
Be fair, Jackson.
Oh! You want me to be fair?
Okay. Okay, Thomas.
I'll show you fair.
You can come down and talk
or you can call the police.
'Cause I'm not going anywhere.
Is that fair, Thomas?
(scoffs)
(breathes deeply)
Where are you going?
I haven't eaten
for about eight hours.
I thought we could get
some chocolate.
Do you want anything?
Bounty. Thanks.
Good call!
(car door closing)
I'm gonna have to ask you to leave
the property please, sir.
You're gonna ask me
or you are asking me?
Just calm down, mate, all right?
I'm not your friend. You calm down.
If you don't leave the property,
we'll be forced to arrest you.
Arrest me for what?
Coming to see a friend?
We are friends right,
Thomas? Right?
Right.
- Right.
- Hey! Oy
Ey! Hey, hey!
- (officer) Stop moving.
- (groans, grunts)
- (grunting)
- Got him?
(tragic music)
(sighs)
(horn honks)
(tragic music continues)
- Thanks for coming to get me.
- Of course. Don't worry about it.
I don't deserve it
after those things I said to you.
Literally, don't even worry
about it. All right?
What did they say in there?
What's happening?
I'm glad we're friends, Lola.
You're a good friend.
The officer wants to prosecute me.
- I'll find out tomorrow.
- Okay.
Well, are you sure
you don't wanna stay at mine?
Thank you.
But, I think I'd like to hug
my children now.
(payphone ringing)
(ringing continues)
I want you to listen
very carefully.
I don't know
what you think this is,
but there is nothing between us.
You can even keep the tapes
if you like, as a parting gift.
But if you come near me again,
I will go to the police.
I will tell them everything.
Do you understand?
It's over.
I don't need you anymore.
(tense music)
(Liam over phone)
Lola, can you please call me back?
I've just sent you a picture of
a letter I found in Freddy's flat.
- I think it's from the birdman.
- (breathes deeply)

- I beg your pardon ♪
I never promised you
A rose garden ♪
Along with the sunshine ♪
There's gotta be
A little rain sometime ♪
When you take you gotta give
So live and let live or let go ♪
Oh, oh, oh, oh ♪
I beg your pardon ♪
I never promised you
A rose garden ♪
I could promise you things
Like big diamond rings ♪
