Series 7, Episode 5
You were never more than a common criminal, were you? Hey! You'll to have to apologise.
Over my dead body or, preferably, his.
Peeters! Trevanion, you have really gone and done it now.
You had nothing to do with Peeters' death? Of course I didn't! I offered to go into partnership with Danny on condition, Mr Du Plessis, that you were left out.
Not without Dup! It's not fair.
We have to go.
You can ask Danny why.
If only we'd told everyone all about Peeters.
We had a problem.
We fixed it.
At what cost? Anders? Anders! You're up early.
You're always up early these days.
Do you remember when we first came here? I remember you smashing Nomsa's best plate because they didn't have Broadband.
And you said you said this place was special and would keep us safe and keep us a family.
Now look at us.
We'll all be together again, I just know it.
I hope you're right.
Is anything worrying you, Dad? Anything you need to say or need to tell me There isn't.
Promise? Cos we're all in this together.
Promise.
I'll help Nomsa make breakfast.
And I won't smash a thing.
I thought I'd find you out here again.
Anders, what are you doing? I'm sorry, Caroline.
For what? For bringing us to this.
Away from your family, away from Leopard's Den, this is not what I wanted for you.
I'm with you.
That's all I've ever wanted.
Come on, let's go back and work on the house.
It'll make us both feel better.
You keep it.
Thanks.
Morning.
Morning.
You look very pleased with yourself.
Do you ever get mornings, Fatani, you just feel good to be alive? Yeah, once.
When I was six.
I'm just joking.
In fact.
Just seeing you there, with the sun I'm late.
I'm late.
Hey.
See you later.
You certainly will.
See you.
I don't know, one day I think we're perfect for each other, the next Sorry, Fatani.
You were saying? It doesn't matter, I've got some work to do.
It's quiet at night without Dup's snoring.
Every cloud I've got a plan.
You sound like Dup.
- You miss him, too.
- I never said I didn't.
What's the plan? Good morning.
Look at you all.
Like the first day at boarding school.
We're missing Caroline and Dup.
Really? Extraordinary.
Well, Danny.
There's work to do.
What sort of work? The exciting sort.
I'll tell you on the way.
Hey, Dup, I'm a catch, aren't I? Well, sort of, don't you think? You? Yeah, I mean, I've got my own bar.
I've got my own teeth.
How could any girl say no? That's what I thought.
Thanks, Dup.
I appreciate that.
Yeah.
Peeters?! No no It can't be.
Uh hu Dup's not insane, Ed.
He's eccentric.
It's a small private zoo.
The guy has got rid of most of his stock but he's left with a leopard Give him another chance, that's all I'm saying and an ocelot.
An ocelot?! In Africa.
It's still an endangered species.
Ask me how much the whole thing's costing us.
Go on, ask me.
All right how much is the leopard and the ocelot that shouldn't even be there costing us? Nothing.
Not a thing.
The guy just wants us to take them off his hands.
Thirsty boy.
Someone walk over your grave, Dup? Why do you say that?! It's just a saying.
What is wrong with you? You're so agitated.
Sorry.
I've got a lot on my mind.
You and gran still at Clearwater? Dup, sort it out.
I hate seeing Danny and Gran like this.
I know.
It's in your hands, you're the one they're falling out over Listen, I came here for a drink, not a lecture! OK.
No need to be rude.
Yap, yap, yap.
Hey, Dup.
Are you OK? You look like you've seen a ghost.
We've always kept a few wild animals.
Something for the kids to look at while their parents scoffed pies and bought curios.
So what happened? They moved the road.
No-one needs my curios.
I don't need these animals.
Well, we'll need a few days a week at the most to sort out the permits.
That wasn't what we agreed.
Mr Roper has sold this property and he's moving on tomorrow.
These animals are his responsibility.
A responsibility I can't afford any more.
He feels that, in the circumstances, having exhausted other avenues That he just wants to get shot of them.
There's a bloke in town opening a casino.
He says he's interested We'll take them.
Eventually.
There's no 'eventually'.
Take them now or don't take them at all.
Ed, we don't have the permits.
Who will ever find out? They're healthy, they're free and we need Ed, we can't start moving animals illegally across the region.
They'll throw the book at us the endangered species project will be over before it began! You're happy for these two to be a side show in a casino, yeah? All right, this one time.
But we never do anything like this again.
Agreed.
And we keep this to ourselves.
I don't want Rosie or any of the others being involved.
I'm sorry, Rosie, no.
Anders has suffered enough humiliation at the hands of that man.
I know he's not the easiest person to get on with Edward Lynch is a snob and a prig.
How Danny could have chosen him over Anders, I That is not true and you know it isn't.
Dad did what he had to do to save Leopard's Den, to keep us all together.
Fine job he's made of that, hasn't he? All I'm asking is that you come over tonight, for dinner.
No, I'm sorry.
Let Ed see the other side of Dup, the side we see the lovely, charming, funny man Do you know, I haven't seen Anders laugh in such a long time.
Of course you haven't.
He should be at Leopard's Den and he isn't.
What did Ed have to say about your little plan? He said he thought it was an excellent idea.
Really? He'll come to dinner with an open mind.
Come on, Caroline.
Some civilized conversation, a few glasses of wine, how bad can it be? And we'll get Dup back where he belongs.
They are beautiful.
They certainly are.
How did you get the paperwork through so fast? I knew the animals were coming weeks ago, I got it all ready in advance.
He's full of surprises.
Isn't he just? And such enterprise must be rewarded.
Come to dinner tonight.
We're having friends over.
Oh, thank you.
It can get a bit lonely up there.
Er These friends.
Do they include a hirsute man with breath that could strip the bristles off a warthog? It's time you saw another side to Dup.
I've seen all the sides I need, thank you.
He's a kind, decent, civilised man.
You just need to give him another chance.
Rosie's right.
I'm sorry I'm busy.
Please, Ed.
This one last time and then I'll never ask again.
All right I'll come.
But promise me one thing.
Anything.
No soup.
I couldn't bear to watch that man eat soup.
Good work you.
I'm telling you, I saw Peeters, clear as day, walking down the road.
Dup, you couldn't have.
I know I couldn't have! I mean, accused of embezzling five million Rand, you wouldn't come back strolling in here! I'm telling you, it was him.
Ah, just give me another drink.
Even if it was him, Dup, why are you so strung out? Because he's Beer! You've cleaned me out.
I'll have to look for one out back.
What do you have to do to get a drink around here? All right? You look nervous.
How dare they make you feel nervous in your own house? There.
Now.
We will be polite, we will listen to what they have to say.
But we will not give in.
We didn't start this.
It's down to Ed and Danny Danny.
I have to see Danny.
I know how soft-hearted you are.
One look, one word from Danny Come on! Let's go and see Danny.
Dup! Hey.
Hello.
Good evening.
I bought you some wine.
You don't have to bring wine.
This is your house.
No, it's not, is it? Where's Danny? We have a couple of new arrivals, an ocelot and a leopard.
He's checking they've settled in the quarantine pen.
Anders! He won't be long, Dup.
Sometimes I think he loves Danny more than he loves me.
Come on, Caroline, help me lay the table.
To be honest, you do look spookily like your brother.
Did you know him? A bit.
He was not the most popular man around here.
He's been many things, my brother, but popular was never one of them.
You must be very worried about him.
I'm worried he'll spend the money before I can get to him.
Who's that cute chick? Hey.
She's not a 'cute chick'.
Well, she is, obviously.
Very.
But not in a disrespectful way.
Is she yours? No, she's not mine.
Hey, baby.
Can I buy you a drink? Danny?! Danny! I spoke to Alice this afternoon.
She's good, misses everyone.
Did you tell her Anders and I have moved out? No, I didn't want to worry her.
Well, she'll have to know sometime.
Hopefully, by then you and Dup will have moved back in.
It's not down to me.
It's down to Danny and Ed.
How is Danny? He's hurt and upset.
You know he hates all this.
Then he should do something about it.
He hasn't just got Dup to worry about.
There's Alice and the baby on the way, and me and Charlotte and the business and the animals.
It's unfair to blame everything I'm sorry, Rosie.
That wasn't fair.
I have no argument with you.
I just want everything back to normal.
Things will only be back to normal when Anders is back in his own home, his own land.
How is Dup? I have to say he looks terrible, Caroline.
Anders will be all right.
He's a much stronger man than any of you realise.
Salvador Dali had an ocelot.
Called Babou went everywhere with him, adored it.
Animals can be very loyal.
Perhaps we should learn from them.
Sorry to keep you all waiting.
Never mind.
Anders hasn't turned up yet.
Oh, where is he? He went to find you.
I told him you were at the quarantine pens.
Well, I was and then I went to check on the new fencing at the kopje.
You go ahead and eat, Danny, don't wait for Anders! It's just a bit of bread, Caroline.
I'm sure Dup wouldn't mind.
I'll go and find Dup.
Sit down, Rosie.
He's not an imbecile.
He'll come when he wants to come.
How much longer are we going to wait? I'm starving.
Danny! Not that it's any of my business, but why an ocelot? Why not? This is so nice, all being together again.
Ocelots are from South America, if I'm not mistaken.
Danny.
And you're from Surrey Sussex.
And yet here you are.
Is something amusing you, Charlotte? Anders? Oh, he's finally flipped.
Hello.
You shut up! Caroline.
Dup Now we can eat.
I'm famished.
Anders.
Where have you been, darling? Danny.
I need to speak to you.
Yeah.
Er In private.
Course.
No, I'm taking you home! Can we all just sit down, please? This is what you've done to him! Sorry, I'm off.
I've got a leopard to check on and a frozen pizza waiting for me.
Thanks for the floor show.
Do you think I'm scared of you? Dup! Do you? Anders.
Don't let him get to you.
I'm not scared of you.
Things I've seen, things I've done today! You wouldn't believe.
Now get out of my house.
What's wrong with you? It's OK.
A word.
You did not see Peeters! Twice.
Once in the road, once in the bar.
You found him face down in that pool.
You buried him.
He looked me in the eye.
No.
He didn't! Dup, you have been under a lot of stress.
We both have.
You go home, you get a good night's sleep and we will talk about this in the morning.
Why did I do this to him? Sorry, Dad.
Ed just radioed up from the pens the leopard is sick.
Go home, Dup.
Sleep.
What is going on? Nothing.
Caroline.
Just get him home, He hasn't touched his food or water.
Oh, what do you think it is? Severe dehydration, diarrhoea, possible anaemia.
Let's sedate him and get him into the clinic.
You saw the state of that place.
It's probably a parasite.
If you take bloods and samples, I can drive through the night to the lab, be there before they open.
Erm The thing is, Rosie I'll drive the samples there.
I really don't mind.
I could be there by I'll do it, Rosie.
Thank you.
Anders, I've been thinking.
We could really do with a holiday.
Just lie on a beach, read books, forget about this place for a week or so.
Wouldn't that be lovely? Maybe Mozambique.
I hear the beaches are wonderful there succulent prawns, Portuguese wine Anders, I'm losing you and I don't know why.
Have I done something? Because if I have, darling, please just Anders, what is it? Caroline, you know I did it out of friendship just friendship.
And now he's haunting me.
Who's haunting you? What are we doing, Anders, skulking around like this? I don't want you to judge me, Caroline.
Not until you've put yourself in my place Judge you on what? I wasn't thinking straight.
A decision had to be made and I made it.
Anders! You see I thought Danny had done it, but he hadn't.
But how was I supposed to know that? And so I did what I thought was best and and I am not taking another step until you tell me what is going on.
Caroline I've done a bad thing a very bad thing.
Anders, you're frightening me.
This is the place.
What place? What do you mean? He's under there.
Right there.
Who is? You see I thought Danny had killed him so I buried him.
You buried who? Peeters.
I buried Peeters.
There.
Is this some kind of ghastly joke? Because if it is It's no joke.
I wish it were.
Peeters is dead? And you This cannot be true.
This cannot be happening.
I didn't wanna tell you because I didn't want you to have the weight of it on your shoulders.
When I came across you and Danny talking tonight you, you looked so guilty? I was trying to tell him something, something terrible.
Oh God! Are you all right? No, I'm not all right! I'm horrified and shocked and disgusted I wouldn't have told you today.
It's just that today Get off me! Caroline? Agh.
I don't even wanna look at you.
Where are you going? Clearwater.
Let me On my own! Oh Anders? Anders? Anders? They say everything looks better in the morning.
They lied.
How are we? I didn't sleep a wink, if that's what you mean.
No.
How are we? I spent the whole night worrying about you, if that means anything.
That means everything.
I simply cannot believe how stupid you've been! You found a dead man and you thought you'd bury him?! I told you, I thought Danny had killed him.
Danny?! Danny Trevanion can't step on a beetle, let alone kill a man.
I know, I know! It was late, I'd been drinking.
I wasn't thinking straight.
Then who am I in all this something the cat dragged in? Why didn't you tell me? I didn't want to worry you Well, you have singularly failed! What do we do now? Is the question.
Maybe we need a priest.
A priest? The thing is, Caroline, I am being haunted.
You are not being haunted, you ridiculous man.
No, you're are having a nervous breakdown brought on by stress and lies It's Peeters.
I saw him! No, you did not! He was there in Fatani's bar.
OK, right.
Right.
I'm going to get to the bottom of this.
Where are you going? Dup, stay there.
Don't do anything! Don't touch anything! How is he? Deteriorated badly overnight.
He was ataxic and having tremors.
I sedated him.
I'll perform more tests.
Head trauma? No sign.
Brain tumour? It's a possibility.
Or meningitis.
Perform a spinal tap? Morning, Dad.
What are you doing here? I work here.
You can't have been to the lab and back already.
I haven't gone yet.
Why not? Other stuff came up.
Other stuff? This is a sick animal, he's our responsibility What is going on here? We can't go to the lab.
Why can't we? We don't have any papers for the leopard or the ocelot.
As far as the authorities are concerned, they don't exist.
But you told me said you knew they were coming you got the permits hurried through I'm sorry, Rosie.
That was a A lie? It was for your own good.
How do you figure that out? Ed and I made this mess, we'll take the consequences.
I don't believe this.
You haven't even graduated yet.
If they were to find out you You don't get it! We're all in this together.
Look it was my fault They were gonna be kept in a cage in a casino, Rosie! Morning, landlord.
Morning.
I had an interesting night last night.
Talked to a lot of people.
Good for you.
Now, if you'll excuse me.
All very interesting.
I spoke to an off-duty police officer.
About your brother? He told me they found his car abandoned in the township.
Did you know that? No.
I thought he just emptied Afrispec's bank account and legged it for the border.
Now I'm not so sure.
I need a beer to oil the cogs of my brain.
I'm sorry, we're not open yet.
Life is never simple, is it? Yeah, I'd noticed that.
Dad? It's me, down by the quarantine pens.
I'm worried about the ocelot.
He's panting.
Looks dehydrated.
Both animals have the same symptoms That rules out head trauma or brain tumour.
It must be some kind of infection.
I'll stay here, keep an eye on him.
What about the leopard? I can help you.
Thanks, Rosie.
I should run some more tests.
Yeah.
I had to do it.
Dup.
Don't creep up on me like that.
Danny.
I told her.
You told Caroline? I thought we said the fewer people that know the better.
I had to tell her.
So, where is she? I don't know.
You don't know? Did she go shopping? Did she go to the police?! I just told you, I don't know! The way she looked at me.
Like like I was dirty, bad Because she's in shock.
That's why we agreed that we wouldn't tell her.
So she wouldn't have this burden on her shoulders.
She's my wife.
I lied to my wife.
I know.
I know.
I'll go and find her.
I'll explain everything.
I've got an idea No.
Please, no more ideas.
Maybe we could just dig up Peeters.
What are you talking about? Well, he's haunting me.
He needs to to rest in peace.
Dup, go up to the house.
Please ask Nomsa to make you some tea.
I've got to sort this out and then I'll come and find you.
Dup.
Caroline will do the right thing.
Well? We're still finding nothing.
Wish we could send these samples to the lab.
Well, we can't, we'll get closed down.
For what it's worth, I'd have done the same.
Thanks, Rosie.
Then I would have told you I'd done it.
Yeah.
How long had Roper had these animals? A couple of years.
He got the leopard from Botswana and the ocelot from a private owner.
No connection there.
There must be a connection somewhere.
Let's go and talk to him.
Looks like the dam's run dry.
I'll get the next round.
Same again, babe.
I was just hearing about your delightful family.
Really? I thought you had a brother to find.
Maybe they're not unconnected.
What are you talking about? I hear your family was down on their luck Luck? More to do with your brother and his greedy company.
Then he mysteriously disappeared and you and your family were nicely back in your old house.
Don't you just love a story with a happy ending? They say Danny Trevanion and my brother crossed swords a few times I don't know what you're insinuating.
Danny is the most decent and honest man you will ever meet.
You could take lessons.
We'll see about that.
Everything all right here? Yeah, nothing I can't handle.
I like a woman with a bit of spirit.
He's not here, I promise.
Who's not here? Dup.
You're looking for Dup, right? I'm looking for Oh My God it is.
Peeters! Easy mistake to make.
Until you meet him, Caroline.
He makes his brother seem like Mother Teresa.
What's he doing here? Looking for his brother.
Looking for his brother's money is more accurate.
Uh, I would like a word with Mr Peeters, please.
In private.
And you are? My name is Caroline Du Plessis.
I knew your brother.
Give us a moment, boys.
You said knew.
You make it sound like he's dead.
Would you mind not looking at my grand daughter like that? Ah, I see.
You're one of the clan.
You must be very worried about your brother.
Not really, never really liked him much, until he came into his recent money.
He didn't come into it, he embezzled it.
Let's not split hairs.
Have you got something to say, Mrs Du Plessis? No, no, I don't.
I just uh I hope you find what you're looking for, Mr Peeters.
Just hang on a moment.
The police gave me this.
It's the contents of my brother's car.
Do you know what this is? No, I don't.
Now if you'll excuse me This is my brother's medication.
He never goes anywhere without it.
What are you saying? I'm saying I smell a rat Mrs Du Plessis.
A large, unpleasant rat.
He's long gone.
Let's take a look inside.
Eurgh What's that smell? Ugh, something rotten.
Look at this place.
It's coming from over here.
It's stuck.
Give me a hand.
On three, remember? I remember.
One, two, three Oh! Oh fish.
If they've been surviving on that they're in real trouble.
Well, that would explain the symptoms.
Classic signs of thiamine deficiency.
Now we know what the problem is we can treat them.
Let's get home.
Another, please.
Caroline, this is not like you.
Seeing that man brings all that unpleasantness back.
Shall I phone Dup? He can drive you home if No.
You're worried about him, aren't you? We all are.
Caroline It's just a little Dutch courage.
That's all.
For what? I'm about to tell that man something that is going to hurt the person I love the most.
Caroline, that man is a chancer, OK.
Don't let him get to you.
It's a question of morality, I'm afraid.
Hello! Thought we weren't seeing each other today.
I just couldn't stay away.
She's the only decent chick in town, you gotta share her around.
Hey.
Right, final straw.
Out you go.
You and whose army? You heard the lady.
Out you get.
Why? Because I don't like you.
Like you didn't like my brother? Listen, don't make me throw you out of this place.
OK? You coming? Go to hell.
I'll come back when I'm loaded.
Ladies love a little bit of bling.
All right.
Fatani, stop! Hey! Gran! Get out! Aargh! Gran, you're bleeding.
I'll quickly check on our supplies of B12.
I'm sure we've got enough but it's better to be safe.
Danny! I think he's dead.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I can't believe this is happening.
I'm sorry.
- Dad? - Yes, Rosie, what is it? I'm at the quarantine pens.
I think the ocelot is having a seizure.
I'm on my way! Here you are! I know you told me to stay put, but I had to see Danny.
What happened? Oh, There was a scuffle in the bar with your ghost.
Only he's not a ghost.
Caroline, what happened to you? It's Peeters' brother.
Peeters' brother? So I'm not going crazy? A horrible little man, only cares about himself.
I'm sorry, Caroline.
We've got to get our stories completely straight.
It's our only chance.
We have to talk to Danny.
Come on.
You're right.
Gonna give him a large dose of Vitamin B12.
His heart rhythm is racing.
Yeah, that will be because of the seizure, all his systems will be reacting.
Let's get him intubated and on some oxygen.
- Shall I put on some music? - No.
Here we go.
How's his heart rate now? Still too fast.
There we are.
I think he's steadying.
Yeah, the seizure's passing, his body seems to be relaxing.
Do you think he'll be all right? Yeah.
We'll watch him, the vitamins should kick in quickly.
Caroline.
Danny.
I have to speak to you.
Now.
Rosie and I can finish here.
Thanks.
His brother?! You shouldn't have told her.
Yes, he should.
And so should you.
Does Alice know? No.
When will you two idiots learn? Your wives are here to help and support you, not to be protected.
I just thought I'm doing the thinking now.
Peeters' brother is absolutely revolting.
I have no qualms in keeping the truth from him.
Good.
Peeters is dead, it serves us nothing to go to the police now.
You think his brother will leave of his own accord? Caroline He suspects something but he's got nothing but circumstantial evidence.
The police aren't interested.
So if we're strong Caroline, no.
This stops here.
What are you saying? This is not my wife talking.
This is not my Caroline.
Oh, Anders.
No, no.
Look at us.
The whole family split apart.
We're lying to the people that we most love.
Jumping at shadows.
Humiliated.
Don't you dare be weak now! This is not weakness.
This is exactly the opposite.
We must tell the truth.
I have to tell the truth.
You'll go to prison.
If I do, I do.
He's right, Caroline.
We weren't built to live like this.
So what will you do? Danny, get the family together and tell them what a complete idiot I've been.
And I'm going to go face my ghost.
Full disclosure.
When he realises there's nothing to be gained by hounding us, maybe he'll just give up and leave us alone.
And what if he doesn't? I honestly don't know.
But I know it's time to stop hiding.
Have you seen this man? Have you seen this man? Have you seen this man? Call that number.
Have you seen this man? Hey! I've seen this man.
Good luck, Danny.
I'm just telling the truth, Caroline.
I should have done it weeks ago.
Enough with the mystery.
Talk.
We were working at a place called The Big Five.
We were having a hard time, not helped by the fact of your brother trying to bully us off our land I'm not interested in the back story.
Just cut to the chase.
I was drunk.
I thought Danny was at Leopard's Den.
Danny? Trevanion.
There's a name that keeps cropping up.
But I didn't find Danny.
I found your brother.
Dead.
Up until now it had just been just bad luck.
Dup found Peeters' body and there was a lot of blood What did you do, Dad? So I buried him in a grave near the house.
I don't understand.
Why not call the police, if you'd done nothing wrong? I thought Danny had killed your brother.
Why? Because they'd had a hell of a fight.
Hey There was this blazing row.
Danny was in a state.
Dup was in a real state when he told me.
And that left me with the same decision: Do I tell the police, do I protect my friend? I can't believe what I'm hearing.
There's a dead man possibly murdered, buried on our land? I know how this must sound Well, you're an idiot a bloody idiot! He did it for a friend.
If you had any perhaps you'd understand what that meant.
I hope he makes more friends in prison where he's going.
It's horrible, Danny What have you done, Dad? I thought it was for the best, Rosie And why didn't you tell me? I'm your daughter.
I'm sorry.
I'm in business with psychotic hillbillys! That's enough, Ed! We've made mistakes and we will put things right.
Nobody here will be implicated, I give you my word.
And what is your word worth right now? I'm sorry for your loss.
And I'm sorry you have to hear about it like this.
Truly.
But nothing can undo the fact that he was already dead when I found him.
Shall I take us to his grave before we go to the police? You can pay your last respects.
How much? Sorry? How much you going to pay me to keep quiet and go away? I told you your brother is dead.
I told you I'll go away for a price.
I haven't got any money.
You're in big trouble, my friend.
I'm going to go home and say goodbye to my family and then I'm going to turn myself in.
He's doing well.
I expect he'll make a complete recovery and hopefully I will too, after hearing that bombshell.
You've every right to be angry.
Why have you been lying to cover up for Dup's idiocy? I don't think you'd understand.
Well, try me.
He's my best friend.
When the police come you make it absolutely clear that I had nothing to do with this? Of course.
I won't be tarred with the same brush as your cretinous family.
Anything else? Yeah.
We'll give this partnership one more go.
It should be easier with Anders out of the way.
You buried Peeters?! Why? I was bored, I had nothing to do.
To help my friend.
But I was there that night! A dead body! What if I'd found him? Well, you didn't.
Why didn't you tell me? Because you would have gone and blabbed it to everyone.
No, I wouldn't have! Huh! Have you guys heard the news? Yes, we know.
How did it go, Anders? Peeters' brother's must be the scummiest scumbag that ever walked! What's he going to do? I don't know and I don't care.
I am going to go to the police and I'm going to tell them everything.
So, how did they take it? They weren't over-impressed, Dup.
OK.
I've got two things I want to say.
One.
Danny had nothing to do with this.
I don't want you taking it out on him.
Understood? And two.
If I am to be imprisoned for any length of time by the South African government I'm sure once you've explained what happened When I come out, I want no more fighting and arguing.
Whatever the future holds, we are all in this together.
Mr Du Plessis, would you do me the honour of allowing me to drive you to the police station? I'd be charmed.
Proud of you, Dup.
I'll find you the best lawyer in town.
Looks like the mountain has come to Mohammed.
Afternoon.
I'm Sergeant Van Der Graf.
Afternoon, sarg.
Peeters, there's a nice rock back there.
Why don't you go and crawl right under it? Which one of you is Daniel Trevanion? That's me.
Look, I know why you're here and it's all my doing.
They don't know anything about it.
Hey, wait What are you doing? Daniel Trevanion, you are under arrest on suspicion of murder.
What? You do not have to say Murder? Don't be preposterous.
He hasn't murdered anyone.
Stand aside, please.
Listen are you deaf? Nobody killed Peeters He killed himself and buried himself on your property? I told you I buried him.
It's me that you want! You'd say anything to protect your friend You just leave him alone! What the hell did you tell him? Full disclosure, like we agreed.
I found the body and then I thought you'd killed him You ever heard of being TOO honest? Dad! Dad! What have I done? What the hell have I done? Everyone knows Dad wouldn't hurt anyone.
I'll get you out of here.
I swear on my life.
You were at the Big Five the night Peeters died? I was fast asleep.
So he sneaks out on the night that Peeters dies.
Lynch is lying for a reason? I want to know what that reason is.
Get into his office.
Have a little nose around.
I'll stay on Lynch's tail.
I can assure you no-one suspects a thing.
We don't know anything about that man.
Over my dead body or, preferably, his.
Peeters! Trevanion, you have really gone and done it now.
You had nothing to do with Peeters' death? Of course I didn't! I offered to go into partnership with Danny on condition, Mr Du Plessis, that you were left out.
Not without Dup! It's not fair.
We have to go.
You can ask Danny why.
If only we'd told everyone all about Peeters.
We had a problem.
We fixed it.
At what cost? Anders? Anders! You're up early.
You're always up early these days.
Do you remember when we first came here? I remember you smashing Nomsa's best plate because they didn't have Broadband.
And you said you said this place was special and would keep us safe and keep us a family.
Now look at us.
We'll all be together again, I just know it.
I hope you're right.
Is anything worrying you, Dad? Anything you need to say or need to tell me There isn't.
Promise? Cos we're all in this together.
Promise.
I'll help Nomsa make breakfast.
And I won't smash a thing.
I thought I'd find you out here again.
Anders, what are you doing? I'm sorry, Caroline.
For what? For bringing us to this.
Away from your family, away from Leopard's Den, this is not what I wanted for you.
I'm with you.
That's all I've ever wanted.
Come on, let's go back and work on the house.
It'll make us both feel better.
You keep it.
Thanks.
Morning.
Morning.
You look very pleased with yourself.
Do you ever get mornings, Fatani, you just feel good to be alive? Yeah, once.
When I was six.
I'm just joking.
In fact.
Just seeing you there, with the sun I'm late.
I'm late.
Hey.
See you later.
You certainly will.
See you.
I don't know, one day I think we're perfect for each other, the next Sorry, Fatani.
You were saying? It doesn't matter, I've got some work to do.
It's quiet at night without Dup's snoring.
Every cloud I've got a plan.
You sound like Dup.
- You miss him, too.
- I never said I didn't.
What's the plan? Good morning.
Look at you all.
Like the first day at boarding school.
We're missing Caroline and Dup.
Really? Extraordinary.
Well, Danny.
There's work to do.
What sort of work? The exciting sort.
I'll tell you on the way.
Hey, Dup, I'm a catch, aren't I? Well, sort of, don't you think? You? Yeah, I mean, I've got my own bar.
I've got my own teeth.
How could any girl say no? That's what I thought.
Thanks, Dup.
I appreciate that.
Yeah.
Peeters?! No no It can't be.
Uh hu Dup's not insane, Ed.
He's eccentric.
It's a small private zoo.
The guy has got rid of most of his stock but he's left with a leopard Give him another chance, that's all I'm saying and an ocelot.
An ocelot?! In Africa.
It's still an endangered species.
Ask me how much the whole thing's costing us.
Go on, ask me.
All right how much is the leopard and the ocelot that shouldn't even be there costing us? Nothing.
Not a thing.
The guy just wants us to take them off his hands.
Thirsty boy.
Someone walk over your grave, Dup? Why do you say that?! It's just a saying.
What is wrong with you? You're so agitated.
Sorry.
I've got a lot on my mind.
You and gran still at Clearwater? Dup, sort it out.
I hate seeing Danny and Gran like this.
I know.
It's in your hands, you're the one they're falling out over Listen, I came here for a drink, not a lecture! OK.
No need to be rude.
Yap, yap, yap.
Hey, Dup.
Are you OK? You look like you've seen a ghost.
We've always kept a few wild animals.
Something for the kids to look at while their parents scoffed pies and bought curios.
So what happened? They moved the road.
No-one needs my curios.
I don't need these animals.
Well, we'll need a few days a week at the most to sort out the permits.
That wasn't what we agreed.
Mr Roper has sold this property and he's moving on tomorrow.
These animals are his responsibility.
A responsibility I can't afford any more.
He feels that, in the circumstances, having exhausted other avenues That he just wants to get shot of them.
There's a bloke in town opening a casino.
He says he's interested We'll take them.
Eventually.
There's no 'eventually'.
Take them now or don't take them at all.
Ed, we don't have the permits.
Who will ever find out? They're healthy, they're free and we need Ed, we can't start moving animals illegally across the region.
They'll throw the book at us the endangered species project will be over before it began! You're happy for these two to be a side show in a casino, yeah? All right, this one time.
But we never do anything like this again.
Agreed.
And we keep this to ourselves.
I don't want Rosie or any of the others being involved.
I'm sorry, Rosie, no.
Anders has suffered enough humiliation at the hands of that man.
I know he's not the easiest person to get on with Edward Lynch is a snob and a prig.
How Danny could have chosen him over Anders, I That is not true and you know it isn't.
Dad did what he had to do to save Leopard's Den, to keep us all together.
Fine job he's made of that, hasn't he? All I'm asking is that you come over tonight, for dinner.
No, I'm sorry.
Let Ed see the other side of Dup, the side we see the lovely, charming, funny man Do you know, I haven't seen Anders laugh in such a long time.
Of course you haven't.
He should be at Leopard's Den and he isn't.
What did Ed have to say about your little plan? He said he thought it was an excellent idea.
Really? He'll come to dinner with an open mind.
Come on, Caroline.
Some civilized conversation, a few glasses of wine, how bad can it be? And we'll get Dup back where he belongs.
They are beautiful.
They certainly are.
How did you get the paperwork through so fast? I knew the animals were coming weeks ago, I got it all ready in advance.
He's full of surprises.
Isn't he just? And such enterprise must be rewarded.
Come to dinner tonight.
We're having friends over.
Oh, thank you.
It can get a bit lonely up there.
Er These friends.
Do they include a hirsute man with breath that could strip the bristles off a warthog? It's time you saw another side to Dup.
I've seen all the sides I need, thank you.
He's a kind, decent, civilised man.
You just need to give him another chance.
Rosie's right.
I'm sorry I'm busy.
Please, Ed.
This one last time and then I'll never ask again.
All right I'll come.
But promise me one thing.
Anything.
No soup.
I couldn't bear to watch that man eat soup.
Good work you.
I'm telling you, I saw Peeters, clear as day, walking down the road.
Dup, you couldn't have.
I know I couldn't have! I mean, accused of embezzling five million Rand, you wouldn't come back strolling in here! I'm telling you, it was him.
Ah, just give me another drink.
Even if it was him, Dup, why are you so strung out? Because he's Beer! You've cleaned me out.
I'll have to look for one out back.
What do you have to do to get a drink around here? All right? You look nervous.
How dare they make you feel nervous in your own house? There.
Now.
We will be polite, we will listen to what they have to say.
But we will not give in.
We didn't start this.
It's down to Ed and Danny Danny.
I have to see Danny.
I know how soft-hearted you are.
One look, one word from Danny Come on! Let's go and see Danny.
Dup! Hey.
Hello.
Good evening.
I bought you some wine.
You don't have to bring wine.
This is your house.
No, it's not, is it? Where's Danny? We have a couple of new arrivals, an ocelot and a leopard.
He's checking they've settled in the quarantine pen.
Anders! He won't be long, Dup.
Sometimes I think he loves Danny more than he loves me.
Come on, Caroline, help me lay the table.
To be honest, you do look spookily like your brother.
Did you know him? A bit.
He was not the most popular man around here.
He's been many things, my brother, but popular was never one of them.
You must be very worried about him.
I'm worried he'll spend the money before I can get to him.
Who's that cute chick? Hey.
She's not a 'cute chick'.
Well, she is, obviously.
Very.
But not in a disrespectful way.
Is she yours? No, she's not mine.
Hey, baby.
Can I buy you a drink? Danny?! Danny! I spoke to Alice this afternoon.
She's good, misses everyone.
Did you tell her Anders and I have moved out? No, I didn't want to worry her.
Well, she'll have to know sometime.
Hopefully, by then you and Dup will have moved back in.
It's not down to me.
It's down to Danny and Ed.
How is Danny? He's hurt and upset.
You know he hates all this.
Then he should do something about it.
He hasn't just got Dup to worry about.
There's Alice and the baby on the way, and me and Charlotte and the business and the animals.
It's unfair to blame everything I'm sorry, Rosie.
That wasn't fair.
I have no argument with you.
I just want everything back to normal.
Things will only be back to normal when Anders is back in his own home, his own land.
How is Dup? I have to say he looks terrible, Caroline.
Anders will be all right.
He's a much stronger man than any of you realise.
Salvador Dali had an ocelot.
Called Babou went everywhere with him, adored it.
Animals can be very loyal.
Perhaps we should learn from them.
Sorry to keep you all waiting.
Never mind.
Anders hasn't turned up yet.
Oh, where is he? He went to find you.
I told him you were at the quarantine pens.
Well, I was and then I went to check on the new fencing at the kopje.
You go ahead and eat, Danny, don't wait for Anders! It's just a bit of bread, Caroline.
I'm sure Dup wouldn't mind.
I'll go and find Dup.
Sit down, Rosie.
He's not an imbecile.
He'll come when he wants to come.
How much longer are we going to wait? I'm starving.
Danny! Not that it's any of my business, but why an ocelot? Why not? This is so nice, all being together again.
Ocelots are from South America, if I'm not mistaken.
Danny.
And you're from Surrey Sussex.
And yet here you are.
Is something amusing you, Charlotte? Anders? Oh, he's finally flipped.
Hello.
You shut up! Caroline.
Dup Now we can eat.
I'm famished.
Anders.
Where have you been, darling? Danny.
I need to speak to you.
Yeah.
Er In private.
Course.
No, I'm taking you home! Can we all just sit down, please? This is what you've done to him! Sorry, I'm off.
I've got a leopard to check on and a frozen pizza waiting for me.
Thanks for the floor show.
Do you think I'm scared of you? Dup! Do you? Anders.
Don't let him get to you.
I'm not scared of you.
Things I've seen, things I've done today! You wouldn't believe.
Now get out of my house.
What's wrong with you? It's OK.
A word.
You did not see Peeters! Twice.
Once in the road, once in the bar.
You found him face down in that pool.
You buried him.
He looked me in the eye.
No.
He didn't! Dup, you have been under a lot of stress.
We both have.
You go home, you get a good night's sleep and we will talk about this in the morning.
Why did I do this to him? Sorry, Dad.
Ed just radioed up from the pens the leopard is sick.
Go home, Dup.
Sleep.
What is going on? Nothing.
Caroline.
Just get him home, He hasn't touched his food or water.
Oh, what do you think it is? Severe dehydration, diarrhoea, possible anaemia.
Let's sedate him and get him into the clinic.
You saw the state of that place.
It's probably a parasite.
If you take bloods and samples, I can drive through the night to the lab, be there before they open.
Erm The thing is, Rosie I'll drive the samples there.
I really don't mind.
I could be there by I'll do it, Rosie.
Thank you.
Anders, I've been thinking.
We could really do with a holiday.
Just lie on a beach, read books, forget about this place for a week or so.
Wouldn't that be lovely? Maybe Mozambique.
I hear the beaches are wonderful there succulent prawns, Portuguese wine Anders, I'm losing you and I don't know why.
Have I done something? Because if I have, darling, please just Anders, what is it? Caroline, you know I did it out of friendship just friendship.
And now he's haunting me.
Who's haunting you? What are we doing, Anders, skulking around like this? I don't want you to judge me, Caroline.
Not until you've put yourself in my place Judge you on what? I wasn't thinking straight.
A decision had to be made and I made it.
Anders! You see I thought Danny had done it, but he hadn't.
But how was I supposed to know that? And so I did what I thought was best and and I am not taking another step until you tell me what is going on.
Caroline I've done a bad thing a very bad thing.
Anders, you're frightening me.
This is the place.
What place? What do you mean? He's under there.
Right there.
Who is? You see I thought Danny had killed him so I buried him.
You buried who? Peeters.
I buried Peeters.
There.
Is this some kind of ghastly joke? Because if it is It's no joke.
I wish it were.
Peeters is dead? And you This cannot be true.
This cannot be happening.
I didn't wanna tell you because I didn't want you to have the weight of it on your shoulders.
When I came across you and Danny talking tonight you, you looked so guilty? I was trying to tell him something, something terrible.
Oh God! Are you all right? No, I'm not all right! I'm horrified and shocked and disgusted I wouldn't have told you today.
It's just that today Get off me! Caroline? Agh.
I don't even wanna look at you.
Where are you going? Clearwater.
Let me On my own! Oh Anders? Anders? Anders? They say everything looks better in the morning.
They lied.
How are we? I didn't sleep a wink, if that's what you mean.
No.
How are we? I spent the whole night worrying about you, if that means anything.
That means everything.
I simply cannot believe how stupid you've been! You found a dead man and you thought you'd bury him?! I told you, I thought Danny had killed him.
Danny?! Danny Trevanion can't step on a beetle, let alone kill a man.
I know, I know! It was late, I'd been drinking.
I wasn't thinking straight.
Then who am I in all this something the cat dragged in? Why didn't you tell me? I didn't want to worry you Well, you have singularly failed! What do we do now? Is the question.
Maybe we need a priest.
A priest? The thing is, Caroline, I am being haunted.
You are not being haunted, you ridiculous man.
No, you're are having a nervous breakdown brought on by stress and lies It's Peeters.
I saw him! No, you did not! He was there in Fatani's bar.
OK, right.
Right.
I'm going to get to the bottom of this.
Where are you going? Dup, stay there.
Don't do anything! Don't touch anything! How is he? Deteriorated badly overnight.
He was ataxic and having tremors.
I sedated him.
I'll perform more tests.
Head trauma? No sign.
Brain tumour? It's a possibility.
Or meningitis.
Perform a spinal tap? Morning, Dad.
What are you doing here? I work here.
You can't have been to the lab and back already.
I haven't gone yet.
Why not? Other stuff came up.
Other stuff? This is a sick animal, he's our responsibility What is going on here? We can't go to the lab.
Why can't we? We don't have any papers for the leopard or the ocelot.
As far as the authorities are concerned, they don't exist.
But you told me said you knew they were coming you got the permits hurried through I'm sorry, Rosie.
That was a A lie? It was for your own good.
How do you figure that out? Ed and I made this mess, we'll take the consequences.
I don't believe this.
You haven't even graduated yet.
If they were to find out you You don't get it! We're all in this together.
Look it was my fault They were gonna be kept in a cage in a casino, Rosie! Morning, landlord.
Morning.
I had an interesting night last night.
Talked to a lot of people.
Good for you.
Now, if you'll excuse me.
All very interesting.
I spoke to an off-duty police officer.
About your brother? He told me they found his car abandoned in the township.
Did you know that? No.
I thought he just emptied Afrispec's bank account and legged it for the border.
Now I'm not so sure.
I need a beer to oil the cogs of my brain.
I'm sorry, we're not open yet.
Life is never simple, is it? Yeah, I'd noticed that.
Dad? It's me, down by the quarantine pens.
I'm worried about the ocelot.
He's panting.
Looks dehydrated.
Both animals have the same symptoms That rules out head trauma or brain tumour.
It must be some kind of infection.
I'll stay here, keep an eye on him.
What about the leopard? I can help you.
Thanks, Rosie.
I should run some more tests.
Yeah.
I had to do it.
Dup.
Don't creep up on me like that.
Danny.
I told her.
You told Caroline? I thought we said the fewer people that know the better.
I had to tell her.
So, where is she? I don't know.
You don't know? Did she go shopping? Did she go to the police?! I just told you, I don't know! The way she looked at me.
Like like I was dirty, bad Because she's in shock.
That's why we agreed that we wouldn't tell her.
So she wouldn't have this burden on her shoulders.
She's my wife.
I lied to my wife.
I know.
I know.
I'll go and find her.
I'll explain everything.
I've got an idea No.
Please, no more ideas.
Maybe we could just dig up Peeters.
What are you talking about? Well, he's haunting me.
He needs to to rest in peace.
Dup, go up to the house.
Please ask Nomsa to make you some tea.
I've got to sort this out and then I'll come and find you.
Dup.
Caroline will do the right thing.
Well? We're still finding nothing.
Wish we could send these samples to the lab.
Well, we can't, we'll get closed down.
For what it's worth, I'd have done the same.
Thanks, Rosie.
Then I would have told you I'd done it.
Yeah.
How long had Roper had these animals? A couple of years.
He got the leopard from Botswana and the ocelot from a private owner.
No connection there.
There must be a connection somewhere.
Let's go and talk to him.
Looks like the dam's run dry.
I'll get the next round.
Same again, babe.
I was just hearing about your delightful family.
Really? I thought you had a brother to find.
Maybe they're not unconnected.
What are you talking about? I hear your family was down on their luck Luck? More to do with your brother and his greedy company.
Then he mysteriously disappeared and you and your family were nicely back in your old house.
Don't you just love a story with a happy ending? They say Danny Trevanion and my brother crossed swords a few times I don't know what you're insinuating.
Danny is the most decent and honest man you will ever meet.
You could take lessons.
We'll see about that.
Everything all right here? Yeah, nothing I can't handle.
I like a woman with a bit of spirit.
He's not here, I promise.
Who's not here? Dup.
You're looking for Dup, right? I'm looking for Oh My God it is.
Peeters! Easy mistake to make.
Until you meet him, Caroline.
He makes his brother seem like Mother Teresa.
What's he doing here? Looking for his brother.
Looking for his brother's money is more accurate.
Uh, I would like a word with Mr Peeters, please.
In private.
And you are? My name is Caroline Du Plessis.
I knew your brother.
Give us a moment, boys.
You said knew.
You make it sound like he's dead.
Would you mind not looking at my grand daughter like that? Ah, I see.
You're one of the clan.
You must be very worried about your brother.
Not really, never really liked him much, until he came into his recent money.
He didn't come into it, he embezzled it.
Let's not split hairs.
Have you got something to say, Mrs Du Plessis? No, no, I don't.
I just uh I hope you find what you're looking for, Mr Peeters.
Just hang on a moment.
The police gave me this.
It's the contents of my brother's car.
Do you know what this is? No, I don't.
Now if you'll excuse me This is my brother's medication.
He never goes anywhere without it.
What are you saying? I'm saying I smell a rat Mrs Du Plessis.
A large, unpleasant rat.
He's long gone.
Let's take a look inside.
Eurgh What's that smell? Ugh, something rotten.
Look at this place.
It's coming from over here.
It's stuck.
Give me a hand.
On three, remember? I remember.
One, two, three Oh! Oh fish.
If they've been surviving on that they're in real trouble.
Well, that would explain the symptoms.
Classic signs of thiamine deficiency.
Now we know what the problem is we can treat them.
Let's get home.
Another, please.
Caroline, this is not like you.
Seeing that man brings all that unpleasantness back.
Shall I phone Dup? He can drive you home if No.
You're worried about him, aren't you? We all are.
Caroline It's just a little Dutch courage.
That's all.
For what? I'm about to tell that man something that is going to hurt the person I love the most.
Caroline, that man is a chancer, OK.
Don't let him get to you.
It's a question of morality, I'm afraid.
Hello! Thought we weren't seeing each other today.
I just couldn't stay away.
She's the only decent chick in town, you gotta share her around.
Hey.
Right, final straw.
Out you go.
You and whose army? You heard the lady.
Out you get.
Why? Because I don't like you.
Like you didn't like my brother? Listen, don't make me throw you out of this place.
OK? You coming? Go to hell.
I'll come back when I'm loaded.
Ladies love a little bit of bling.
All right.
Fatani, stop! Hey! Gran! Get out! Aargh! Gran, you're bleeding.
I'll quickly check on our supplies of B12.
I'm sure we've got enough but it's better to be safe.
Danny! I think he's dead.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I can't believe this is happening.
I'm sorry.
- Dad? - Yes, Rosie, what is it? I'm at the quarantine pens.
I think the ocelot is having a seizure.
I'm on my way! Here you are! I know you told me to stay put, but I had to see Danny.
What happened? Oh, There was a scuffle in the bar with your ghost.
Only he's not a ghost.
Caroline, what happened to you? It's Peeters' brother.
Peeters' brother? So I'm not going crazy? A horrible little man, only cares about himself.
I'm sorry, Caroline.
We've got to get our stories completely straight.
It's our only chance.
We have to talk to Danny.
Come on.
You're right.
Gonna give him a large dose of Vitamin B12.
His heart rhythm is racing.
Yeah, that will be because of the seizure, all his systems will be reacting.
Let's get him intubated and on some oxygen.
- Shall I put on some music? - No.
Here we go.
How's his heart rate now? Still too fast.
There we are.
I think he's steadying.
Yeah, the seizure's passing, his body seems to be relaxing.
Do you think he'll be all right? Yeah.
We'll watch him, the vitamins should kick in quickly.
Caroline.
Danny.
I have to speak to you.
Now.
Rosie and I can finish here.
Thanks.
His brother?! You shouldn't have told her.
Yes, he should.
And so should you.
Does Alice know? No.
When will you two idiots learn? Your wives are here to help and support you, not to be protected.
I just thought I'm doing the thinking now.
Peeters' brother is absolutely revolting.
I have no qualms in keeping the truth from him.
Good.
Peeters is dead, it serves us nothing to go to the police now.
You think his brother will leave of his own accord? Caroline He suspects something but he's got nothing but circumstantial evidence.
The police aren't interested.
So if we're strong Caroline, no.
This stops here.
What are you saying? This is not my wife talking.
This is not my Caroline.
Oh, Anders.
No, no.
Look at us.
The whole family split apart.
We're lying to the people that we most love.
Jumping at shadows.
Humiliated.
Don't you dare be weak now! This is not weakness.
This is exactly the opposite.
We must tell the truth.
I have to tell the truth.
You'll go to prison.
If I do, I do.
He's right, Caroline.
We weren't built to live like this.
So what will you do? Danny, get the family together and tell them what a complete idiot I've been.
And I'm going to go face my ghost.
Full disclosure.
When he realises there's nothing to be gained by hounding us, maybe he'll just give up and leave us alone.
And what if he doesn't? I honestly don't know.
But I know it's time to stop hiding.
Have you seen this man? Have you seen this man? Have you seen this man? Call that number.
Have you seen this man? Hey! I've seen this man.
Good luck, Danny.
I'm just telling the truth, Caroline.
I should have done it weeks ago.
Enough with the mystery.
Talk.
We were working at a place called The Big Five.
We were having a hard time, not helped by the fact of your brother trying to bully us off our land I'm not interested in the back story.
Just cut to the chase.
I was drunk.
I thought Danny was at Leopard's Den.
Danny? Trevanion.
There's a name that keeps cropping up.
But I didn't find Danny.
I found your brother.
Dead.
Up until now it had just been just bad luck.
Dup found Peeters' body and there was a lot of blood What did you do, Dad? So I buried him in a grave near the house.
I don't understand.
Why not call the police, if you'd done nothing wrong? I thought Danny had killed your brother.
Why? Because they'd had a hell of a fight.
Hey There was this blazing row.
Danny was in a state.
Dup was in a real state when he told me.
And that left me with the same decision: Do I tell the police, do I protect my friend? I can't believe what I'm hearing.
There's a dead man possibly murdered, buried on our land? I know how this must sound Well, you're an idiot a bloody idiot! He did it for a friend.
If you had any perhaps you'd understand what that meant.
I hope he makes more friends in prison where he's going.
It's horrible, Danny What have you done, Dad? I thought it was for the best, Rosie And why didn't you tell me? I'm your daughter.
I'm sorry.
I'm in business with psychotic hillbillys! That's enough, Ed! We've made mistakes and we will put things right.
Nobody here will be implicated, I give you my word.
And what is your word worth right now? I'm sorry for your loss.
And I'm sorry you have to hear about it like this.
Truly.
But nothing can undo the fact that he was already dead when I found him.
Shall I take us to his grave before we go to the police? You can pay your last respects.
How much? Sorry? How much you going to pay me to keep quiet and go away? I told you your brother is dead.
I told you I'll go away for a price.
I haven't got any money.
You're in big trouble, my friend.
I'm going to go home and say goodbye to my family and then I'm going to turn myself in.
He's doing well.
I expect he'll make a complete recovery and hopefully I will too, after hearing that bombshell.
You've every right to be angry.
Why have you been lying to cover up for Dup's idiocy? I don't think you'd understand.
Well, try me.
He's my best friend.
When the police come you make it absolutely clear that I had nothing to do with this? Of course.
I won't be tarred with the same brush as your cretinous family.
Anything else? Yeah.
We'll give this partnership one more go.
It should be easier with Anders out of the way.
You buried Peeters?! Why? I was bored, I had nothing to do.
To help my friend.
But I was there that night! A dead body! What if I'd found him? Well, you didn't.
Why didn't you tell me? Because you would have gone and blabbed it to everyone.
No, I wouldn't have! Huh! Have you guys heard the news? Yes, we know.
How did it go, Anders? Peeters' brother's must be the scummiest scumbag that ever walked! What's he going to do? I don't know and I don't care.
I am going to go to the police and I'm going to tell them everything.
So, how did they take it? They weren't over-impressed, Dup.
OK.
I've got two things I want to say.
One.
Danny had nothing to do with this.
I don't want you taking it out on him.
Understood? And two.
If I am to be imprisoned for any length of time by the South African government I'm sure once you've explained what happened When I come out, I want no more fighting and arguing.
Whatever the future holds, we are all in this together.
Mr Du Plessis, would you do me the honour of allowing me to drive you to the police station? I'd be charmed.
Proud of you, Dup.
I'll find you the best lawyer in town.
Looks like the mountain has come to Mohammed.
Afternoon.
I'm Sergeant Van Der Graf.
Afternoon, sarg.
Peeters, there's a nice rock back there.
Why don't you go and crawl right under it? Which one of you is Daniel Trevanion? That's me.
Look, I know why you're here and it's all my doing.
They don't know anything about it.
Hey, wait What are you doing? Daniel Trevanion, you are under arrest on suspicion of murder.
What? You do not have to say Murder? Don't be preposterous.
He hasn't murdered anyone.
Stand aside, please.
Listen are you deaf? Nobody killed Peeters He killed himself and buried himself on your property? I told you I buried him.
It's me that you want! You'd say anything to protect your friend You just leave him alone! What the hell did you tell him? Full disclosure, like we agreed.
I found the body and then I thought you'd killed him You ever heard of being TOO honest? Dad! Dad! What have I done? What the hell have I done? Everyone knows Dad wouldn't hurt anyone.
I'll get you out of here.
I swear on my life.
You were at the Big Five the night Peeters died? I was fast asleep.
So he sneaks out on the night that Peeters dies.
Lynch is lying for a reason? I want to know what that reason is.
Get into his office.
Have a little nose around.
I'll stay on Lynch's tail.
I can assure you no-one suspects a thing.
We don't know anything about that man.
