Silent Witness (1996) s14e10 Episode Script
The Prodigal (2)
There's been a shooting at the Dutch embassy.
Is the gunman still in the building? Possibly, we don't know yet.
How many dead? I counted at least two.
Including one of your officers? Yes.
Constable Ryan Barlow was shot outside the embassy.
Sir.
Front door's opening.
Go! Go! Go! My son I mean my grandson is missing We need to find him now.
I do not need this.
Well, now you no longer have to worry about him.
He's dead.
Not for the first time.
I'm afraid you have to stop the post-mortem immediately.
The Dutch have appointed another pathologist.
Leo Dalton, MBE.
How did you know about the possible privatisation of the department? I thought it was common knowledge.
No.
I can't see Professor Dalton moving on, can you? The van Buren family seem to be cursed.
First his son Jacob went missing in 1996.
Then his brother Diederick was killed in Nigeria three years ago And now all this.
Whitehead's been implicated.
The bullet casing we found beside Barlow's body One nine millimetre hard-nosed bullet.
I drew my weapon and came out of the cloakroom.
Did you see who it was? He's dead.
Yes, and the bullet that killed him came out of your weapon.
Nothing deserves the killing of three people and the taking of my eight-year-old grandson.
Can you tell us what you did see? A man came into the dining room.
He had a gun.
I grabbed Jack and we hid underneath the table.
Oh, my God! I know who he was.
It was Jacob.
Jacob? Your brother? Do you think it's possible? That Jacob's come back, you mean? Yeah.
You don't think so.
It raises more questions than it answers.
Where has he been these last fifteen years? Why come back now? How did he get in to the embassy? Morning.
Why the sudden shooting spree? Is that Jacob? It's the best I can do.
We'll get it to the van Burens and see if they recognise him.
Can you estimate how tall he is? It's all here.
Thanks.
Once they've confirmed it, I'll get it to the press.
Confirm what exactly? Shouldn't we be concentrating on trying to find the boy? Jack was taken by someone we think looks like this.
If we find him, we find the boy.
Trudy van Buren.
Bullet wound to right scapular.
The bullet.
A Winchester Talon Ranger SXT.
It's American; I don't think it's been used in the UK before.
Developed for Air Marshall's 'to offer a substantially better terminal performance.
'.
Hydrostatic shock.
What has that got to do with it? Cause of death.
That bullet seems to have done the trick don't you think? That bullet is designed to offer a combination of expansion, penetration, cavitation and sufficient energy transfer to impart remote wounding and neurological effects.
We should order a dozen immediately.
There is no actual medical evidence for hydrostatic shock in humans, and at that woman The shock produces remote neural damage.
She died of blood loss, James.
SHOT After breaking the skin, the bullet smashed through the ribs, and tore her aorta before tearing out the heart.
It has nothing to do with hydrostatic shock; that expanding, penetrating, energy transferring remote wounding bullet ripped out a bloody great hole inside her.
Here endeth the lesson.
Don't you have a home to go to? No, it's funny, I've seen so many of these but I never get bored.
Sergeant Whitehead and Klara van Buren.
Were you ever going to tell me? Or were you going to let me read about their 'relationship' in the red tops? Who leaked it? I don't care who leaked it.
As you say, we need to keep Jack at the centre of our story.
Not some tawdry bloody affair between one of your officers.
Sorry, sir, I only found out about it yesterday.
Well, you should have told me then.
Yes, sir.
You need to trust me.
No more secrets.
It's not against the law, is it? To have an affair with someone you're also protecting? No.
But Craig was there to protect the whole family.
He was drawn inside the building.
It looks like his personal relationship might have got in the way of his job Did you find anything? I've requisitioned a frozen swab from police storage.
The sample taken from the heath was Jacob's, but there was another sample of blood found at the house.
Less sensitive techniques in 1996 only got a general match for the van Buren men.
Pieter, Diederick or Jacob.
Can we do better than that now? I'm hoping we will be able to identify exactly whose blood it was.
Good.
I also think that maybe you should go over there, to the house in Hampstead Heath.
I doubt whether there'll be any evidence from 1996.
No, but what happened at the embassy almost certainly had its roots in the past.
I suppose.
Especially if Jacob has come back as an avenging angel.
Any more signs of hydrostatic shock out there, James? Was that an ICD? Do you think the ambassador knew he had a bodyguard with a dodgy heart? Doubt he cared.
What was that? Hmm? He's had a sagittal split osteotomy? Is that a silastic cheek implant? Has he got scarring behind the ears? James Faint preauricular incision lines? This guy has he had a face lift? Please.
I am trying to work.
Those teeth don't come cheap either.
If you're deliberately trying to annoy me, you're succeeding.
No, I just didn't know bodyguards were so vain.
His penchant for plastic surgery isn't my concern.
Cause of death is.
So why shoot him twice? Either bullet would have killed him.
Again, not my concern.
Not your concern? Oh, my God! The man was a bodyguard, he was in the dining room with everyone else.
The gunman obviously wanted to make sure he was dead.
At the moment, it's believed that the gunman came from outside the embassy, shot Constable Barlow Excuse me, sir.
Came through reception and towards the dining room, but it makes more sense if the bodyguard was shot first.
Does it? You'd want the bodyguard dead Oh, my God! So then the gunman came out of the dining room and shot Trudy.
Sergeant Whitehead and the ambassador both said the gunman fired at least three shots before coming out of the dining room This is what I remember.
What? You, teaching, like this.
How I passed at all is a miracle? I think we need to take a look.
What now? No.
We can't.
Why not? I haven't finished this post-mortem.
He's not going anywhere, is he? It's not your case.
Shit.
Let's go in mine.
Whatever you like.
If the Lyell Centre were to close, what would you do? Why would it close? Ever thought of becoming an independent? Not seriously, no.
Very nice.
It's just that a friend of mine, another pathologist, planning on setting up a practice and we're looking for a third partner You're offering me a job? You'd be the senior partner, obviously.
Obviously.
I have waited 15 years for my son to come back to me.
But not like this.
Jacob wouldn't kill anyone.
Do you know anything about Jack? I don't, I'm sorry.
I'm sure the police will be doing everything they can, though.
I just hope Klara doesn't have to go through what I've been through.
I read the file.
Why did Klara blame herself for what happened to Jacob? They were playing together In the garden.
It wasn't Klara's fault.
She just got bored playing hide and seek.
This was the day Jacob was taken.
That's Jacob.
His sister, Klara.
Beautiful children.
Yes, thank you.
Klara is coming here to recuperate.
That was me, Pieter, Diederick, Pieter's brother, Diederick's wife, Trudy.
An amazing woman, how she put up with Diederick I'll never know.
We lost touch after he died.
And who's this? Mary Olivant.
An au pair we employed to help us with the children over the summer.
She was a local girl, off to Cambridge, I think.
Apparently, two samples of blood were found.
One here at the house, the other was Jacob's on the heath.
Would you like me to show you? Hi.
The cuts on the arms and legs - self-harming.
Been at it for years.
She probably had a special kit of some sort that she used.
Small knives, tweezers, things like that.
I'll look out for it once we've found out where she lives.
You might also look out for some bottles.
Booze.
She was an alcoholic.
You can tell that? Ah-ha.
Alcohol ends up in the liver where it is metabolised.
The end product, which is fat, along with carbon dioxide.
A fatty liver leads to alcoholic hepatitis.
If you look at the liver you can see.
OK.
I believe you.
Let's have a look at the stomach contents then, shall we? Right.
You don't have to watch.
I think I should.
What's that smell? That's coconut milk And what else? Peanuts? And a spice of some sort, I think.
Nutmeg? There's a picture I can never get out of my mind.
Jacob is being led away by someone.
He's smiling that smile of his and he cries out for me and I hear that call.
Pieter, my ex-husband, is always telling me to move on, but how can you move on when every night you're woken by your son calling your name? This is where the blood was found.
I come here almost every day and I never stop hoping that one day he will be here.
Running towards me and calling out "Mama".
On the Saturday, I took her to a restaurant.
And that's where you had this argument.
Not then.
Klara met some woman, an old friend she said.
She asked me to wait in the car.
That is your job, Craig.
I was off duty.
So you got angry.
There I was, sat like a bloody taxi driver, eating a happy meal outside this amazing Indonesian restaurant in Mayfair.
So when she got back in the car, that is when you had words? Yeah.
And how did the evening end? I drove her back to the embassy, she got out, not a word.
I knew she wasn't going to be easy - I'd read about the rehab, how she'd left home at 15 to live in a squat, had the kid.
So you went in there the next day and shot the hell out of the van Buren family.
Is that what they're saying? Look at me.
Does this job come with a new BMW? And a secretary.
Work when you like.
Big expense account.
No, not interested.
Right.
Barlow's body was there and the bullet casing was here.
Could it have got kicked when everyone was running in and out? I don't know.
Did they go this way? There were CO19 and paramedics everywhere.
That stain is where the ambassador and his daughter were The van Burens are having lunch.
The gunman bursts in, starts shooting.
Klara said she grabbed Jack and they hid under the table.
Oh, my God! The bodyguard gets shot, twice.
Where was Trudy van Buren sitting? Here The handbag.
She gets up and runs out.
The bullet was found here, presumably fired at her as she fled.
And then the gunman chases after her.
And very soon after the shooting starts, Sergeant Whitehead comes out of the bathroom.
I thought he was a suspect.
Can we trust his statement? Who gets shot first, Whitehead or Trudy? Either way, he gets shot.
He drops his gun, the gunman picks it up, and then uses it to shoot Constable Barlow.
That's when Barlow got shot.
I warned you, Harry Cunningham wasn't stupid.
He knows about Diederick? Put it this way, he's getting very warm.
Shit.
He also thinks the shooting started from inside the embassy.
But the bullet casing from the Glock was found outside? Someone must have kicked it or moved it.
Have you finished the post-mortem? Not a chance.
The quicker we get the body out of there the quicker I can get back to what I should actually be doing - finding out who did this.
The night before the shooting, Craig told me you'd had an argument.
Yes, we argued.
I was behaving like an idiot.
He knew that.
Is this really relevant? He had nothing to do with the shooting, I will swear on it on my son's life.
Has someone shown you the computer-generated photo of Jacob? It was him.
He was the gunman.
Why do you think he's come back? Now? I think after he was taken, he was held for many years.
I don't know, maybe he's been told lies about us and now he is an adult he has come to find us.
To take revenge.
So what is going to happen now? Copies of Jacob's photograph will be circulated in the media.
There's been huge interest.
somebody out there will have seen him.
I'll keep you posted.
Thank you.
Heeft u hem ergens? Neen, hij liep af willen vertelde hem aan.
Waarom nog niet ze hem gevonden? Und Diederick? Hebben ze gevonden hem nog? Dr Cunningham? Did James tell you about the bodyguard, the amount of cosmetic surgery he's had? No, I haven't.
I wouldn't expect a report until the post-mortem was completed.
Why do you think he and the bodyguard were having a fight? They were having an argument.
You don't think that's suspicious? No.
We know who he is, we know he isn't the gunman or the kidnapper.
No.
We know who the Dutch say he is.
He was invited to lunch, yes? As far as I know.
And who was the other place laid for? Pieter van Buren, Trudy van Buren, Klara, Jack the bodyguard? Five people to lunch, six places laid.
Now was the other one for the killer? No.
How do you know? The Ambassador might have mentioned it.
I have to get back and finish the PM Do you want a lift? No.
Doctor Cunningham, much as I appreciate No, something else is odd here.
This basket was full of bread, there were more water bottles on this table Has one of your officers taken them? Of course not.
For DNA or fingerprints, or something? No.
Then who's moved them? The blood tests from 15 years ago.
Wow, that was quick.
I think there's been a mistake somewhere.
How do you mean? Well, you know the blood that was found on the nail, in the shed at the house? That was identified as van Buren at the time.
Yeah.
What about it? It's come back without a match.
Maybe the sample could've been contaminated in some way? I don't know, but what I also don't understand is that Diederick's DNA is no longer on the system.
Really? Everybody else who was there that day in 1996 is still on the database.
Maybe the Dutch embassy requested to have it removed.
Can you do that on a case that hasn't been officially closed? 'I don't know.
' Harry's office? Where are you? 'On my way to the embassy.
' Harry said he had something to show me.
Can you call me later? Yeah, bye.
I just want to leave him this.
Over there's fine.
What's going on? Why have you called me here? I think Jack may still be somewhere in the building.
What? Somebody has been taking food from the dining room.
What? Yep, and he can't have been upstairs all this time.
Well, there's too many people.
Yep, exactly.
Where does this lead? It's the heating system.
I never knew that flowers had so many meanings.
This girl had a bouquet, right, containing coriander, which means lust, a white rose, which is secrecy and silence, and a purple hyacinth, which means forgiveness.
Or she just went to a really bad florist.
We have an ID on her.
Mary Olivant.
lived.
Mary Olivant.
What about her? I've just done her post-mortem.
The van Buren nanny, yes? Hampstead Heath.
Why else end her life here, miles from where she lived but only half a mile from the house? Hello again.
This is DC Razvi, Nikki Alexander.
Hello.
Police files say that on the day that Jacob went missing, Mary had been with the family in the morning but was shopping in the afternoon.
What time did she go shopping? Apparently, between two and three.
Which is exactly the time that Jacob disappeared.
The body was just over here, after she was cut down and the bouquet was about here.
She left the flowers as a message.
Did anyone get to her flat? The whole place was spotless.
Mary's landlord said that she worked at a call centre.
Her phone had a couple of messages on it.
Her work colleagues sent her some abusive images and texts.
I did also find out that she had over ã150,000 in her building society account.
From a call centre job? No.
Diederick van Buren was paying in 1,000 Euros a month in her account.
Since when? 1996? Jack! Are you sure about this, Harry? Jack! Here! Jack! Jack, my name's Harry.
I'm a doctor, kind of a doctor.
I bet you're really, really frightened.
I know I would be.
And tired, and really hungry.
Let's see if I've got something.
I've got some Starburst.
Would you like one? Here.
Really fruity.
In fact they were called Opal Fruits when I was young.
Now listen, your mum and your grandfather are both well.
And the gunman has gone so it's completely safe here now and everyone is really, really missing you.
Wants to see you.
Do you not want them? OK, I'll get them back then.
Hello, Jack.
I'm not here to hurt you, OK? I promise you.
You speak English? I've got a phone here.
You could call your mum.
No.
Harry? Yeah, hang on.
OK, can I sit down? You could use the phone to order a pizza.
I always have an Hawaiian personally? What's your favourite? Margherita with olives.
Bit boring but no pineapple? No? Want to order that? Do you want me to order a Margherita, with olives? Maybe a coke? Thank you for finding me.
That's OK.
Harry, are you OK? Yep.
He's here.
We could be wrong.
Mary has been punishing herself for the last 15 years.
The self-abuse.
The abuse of others.
The alcoholism.
She knew exactly where she was going today, and why.
And the flowers.
DULL THUD It's a skull.
MOBILE RINGS Harry? OK, thanks.
Harry's found Jack.
Hey, Jack.
I'm sorry.
It's fine, it's all right.
Thank you so much.
It's OK.
You don't know how much this means to us.
It's good he's been found.
Yeah.
Would it be possible to have a word with you and Katharine in private? Yes, sure.
Join us for a drink.
A body's been found.
Jacob? It's the body of a boy, aged about eight years of age.
Where? Not far from here.
On the heath.
Was he shot or No.
So how do you know it's Jacob? We are not sure yet but Mary Olivant, your au pair that you employed that summer, she committed suicide close to where the body was found.
She was holding this.
Jacob.
He was wearing his gloves on a ribbon through his jacket.
It was summer but he wouldn't let me take them away.
Was it Mary, then, who took him? We don't know yet.
Did she leave a note or anything? Not that we've found.
How soon after he was taken was he killed? Oh, we can't be sure yet.
Do you know how he died? No, tomorrow my colleagues will carry out a post-mortem and then we will be able to tell you much more.
Jacob, my poor little boy.
It's over now.
No Klara must know.
Katharine, please.
No, no, no she has blamed herself all these years.
I'll go and tell her now.
Hello, "hero of the hour".
You should be you getting the MBE, not me.
Yeah.
How were the van Burens? Mixed.
You're not thinking of leaving us, are you? Why do you ask? It's just I've had a request for a reference.
For me? You haven't been approached by anyone? James Sabiston mentioned that he might be setting up a new practice.
And he's offered you a job? I said no.
Somebody thinks you are.
We talked about it.
He said he'd put something in writing.
That was what the envelope was for? MOBILE RINGS What envelope? Sorry.
If Harry leaves, this department closes.
Why? We can't have run a forensic group practice with just two pathologists, can we? How much do you think they're offering him? At least three times what he's getting now, I bet.
We can't compete with anything like that.
What happened when the gunman came into the room? My mother hid me under the table.
We then went outside into the hall and she told me to run.
We both ran but she got caught and I kept running.
I managed to get to the basement, where I hid.
Where did you find the gun? On the floor.
Was it wrong? No, no, no.
You did good.
You know Sergeant Whitehead? Craig? Yeah, of course.
Was he at the embassy on Sunday? He was fighting with my grandfather.
Do you know why? No.
Was he the man firing the gun? I don't know.
I didn't see him.
I just did what my mother told me.
I ran and I ran.
Pass.
What were you talking about, earlier? With Jack? He said he didn't want to talk to the police.
I said he had to.
It was very important.
He's been very brave.
I love you, Klara.
What would you do if someone offered you a job like this? I'm not you.
Leo thinks that if you leave, this department will close.
Rubbish.
He thinks you're irreplaceable.
What is that? It's a defibrillator taken from this mysterious bodyguard.
What's mysterious about him? Any man who's had extensive cosmetic surgery and has a heart problem and ends up having a fight with the person he's meant to be guarding is not your everyday member of close security personnel.
SHE CHUCKLES He's someone the ambassador and powers that be, with the help of James Sabiston, don't want us to know.
Why? He was the reason for the shooting.
He was shot first, and shot twice.
Have you tried DNA and fingerprints? James sent off the samples, the results have come back as Jan Zeeman.
Whoever it really is will have had their details erased from the database.
How old is he? Roughly.
Late 40s.
Why? Blood found at the Hampstead house in 1996.
At the time, there was only a general match for the van Buren men, all of whom had samples of DNA taken to eliminate them.
So you've had it sent off again.
And there's no profile that matches the sample.
Because they almost certainly Have had their details erased.
Diederick van Buren.
Died, April 11th 2008.
Car crash, Abuja, Nigeria.
James, would you mind comparing this blood sample analysis shown to me by my colleague, Doctor Alexander, with this one? I don't want to sound like your teacher.
They come from the same person.
Yes, they do.
This one is taken from the van Buren Hampstead house in 1996.
Ii doesn't match Pieter, it doesn't match Jacob, which only leaves Diederick.
And this one was taken from the body found dead at the Dutch embassy three days ago.
He was still alive.
The bodyguard was Diederick van Buren.
You knew.
You knew he was alive at the embassy and you accuse me of withholding information.
He may not have been the target.
He was wanted for political corruption in Holland He was dead.
No-one knew he was even in the country.
His family did.
He WAS the target and one of my officers was killed and another was seriously injured.
It is imperative that this man's true identity remains unknown.
Why? I asked you a question, sir.
You're on very thin ice, Chief Inspector.
Goodbye, James.
Why would the British Government want to protect someone like Diederick van Buren? 'A police spokesman has confirmed that eight-year-old boy Jack van Buren, 'missing for two days following the shootings at the Dutch embassy, 'is alive and well, but police have refused to comment on details of where and how the boy was found.
' There's a small fracture above the right eye socket.
Is that how he died? I don't think so.
He may have fallen against something or possibly was hit, which has caused this wound here, but at some point, he was either forced or fell backwards or maybe he was hit on the head from behind, which is what caused this fracture on the rear of the skull.
So, there were two injuries? Moving down towards the external occipital protuberance.
The knobbly bit on the back of your head.
They knobbly bit, yes.
And then down to the foramen magnum.
That's where the spinal cord comes out.
Once we get the skull X-rayed, I'd expect to see some fine fractures to the roof of the eye sockets.
And that's what killed him? Initially, it would certainly have rendered him unconscious.
But then? Yeah.
Cause of death.
Why did Klara lie about Jacob being the gunman? To protect her father? Would you mind getting out of the car, please, sir? Yes, I would mind.
Would you get out of the car? This is a car with diplomatic plates.
You have no authority to stop it.
We've identified your brother.
It was not my idea to hide anything from you.
I was instructed.
What was he doing at the embassy? Your intelligence service knew he was here.
He was employed by MI6, a go-between for the Government and many of its leading companies.
Why was he paying Mary Olivant, your au pair, 1,000 euros a month? Was he? Yes.
Was it so she would keep quiet about your son Jacob's death? What? That's rubbish.
Let me through.
What happened inside the embassy? We know your brother brought a weapon into the country.
What were you fighting about? Listen, the gunman came from outside.
No, Mr van Buren.
I don't think there was any outside gunman.
When you brought your daughter out, you picked up a shell casing from the inside and you put it down on the outside near the body of Constable Barlow.
SHE GROANS IN PAIN At the time of the shooting, I was upstairs.
I heard gunshots and I went downstairs, Chief Inspector, can move your car, please? He has been lying to us.
One of my officers is dead and I want him to tell me how it happened.
You can not stop this car.
If and when you do have a case, you can put it to the CPS and they will take it to the Foreign Office.
Move your car.
Did you know where Jack had gone? No.
Thank you for finding him.
Move your car! I'm moving it.
I just wanted to let you know that I won't be going anywhere.
So Nikki tells me.
I'm delighted.
What made you change your mind? My mind was never made up.
But you thought about it? Yes.
Sometimes that's the only way to fully appreciate what you already have.
So, what's the position? Where are we with the university? It turns out that Doctor Sabiston included your name in a bid for this department, and the Home Office were very tempted.
I never said I would join him.
It doesn't matter.
They turned it down.
Why? Well, I did a little bit of rooting around on Dr James Sabiston.
Is it all a very bad dream? Is he a car mechanic? Three years ago, Diederick van Buren "died" in Nigeria, and the pathologist Was James Sabiston.
What is he, some kind of forensic spy? Are you going to report him? What for? Doing what he was asked to do by two governments? I mentioned it to DS Mansfield and said that we would be discreet about all this if he perhaps could petition the Home Office on our behalf.
Blackmail.
I like it.
Please! May I remind you, you're talking to a designated recipient of the MBE! Mary Olivant had a spicy mixture of pala, cengkeh and laos in her stomach contents.
Sounds Indonesian.
Is that the van Buren's old au pair? Yes.
On the night before the embassy shooting, Sergeant Whitehead took Klara van Buren to an Indonesian restaurant.
No.
No.
No.
Jack Jack! What's wrong, darling? Jack! Jack! Jack! Klara! Jack! What's wrong with him? Klara?! Jack! Why did he run away? It's not my fault.
Oh, Klara! It was never my fault.
Why did you say Jacob had come back? Why did you lie? Why is everything about Jacob? Klara! Jack! Jack! Jack! Mrs van Buren Jack's run away again.
We need to speak to Klara.
What for? We need to speak to her urgently.
Katherine, where is she? She's gone to find Jack.
He was there.
He saw what happened.
Jack! Jack! Jack! Jack! Jack! Jack! Klara! This is CI Woods requesting back up.
I'm on Hampstead Heath, Hampstead Lane entrance.
Jack! Klara! Jack! Jack! Klara Klara Please! Klara.
Darling.
Just stay away from me.
You told Jack to lie for you, didn't you? I saw you telling him.
He was lying to the police.
That's what the van Buren's do best, lie through their stinking teeth.
I saw Mary the night before.
Mary? Mary told me everything.
She knew what it was like.
She knew what I have been through.
We showed each other our scars.
Did Mary kill Jacob? No, no, no.
Mary loved Jacob, he was her favourite, and when he got bored, he went looking for her.
And then he found her.
But Jacob saw something he shouldn't have.
MOANING Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh! Jacob! Jacob saw Mary and Daddy screwing in the summerhouse.
No! You knew what he was like.
You knew what he was doing.
And Jacob ran and ran and ran.
Yes! Yes! Yes! Jacob And Daddy chased him, chased and chased.
Jacob Mama! Mama! And Jacob cried for you.
He kept crying for mama, his mama.
No.
And Daddy hit him.
You mustn't do that to him.
So Jacob ran again.
Mary told me he wouldn't stop.
Jacob! Jacob! Jacob! Jacob! Jacob! Jacob.
Jacob! Jacob! He fell.
It was an accident.
Jacob! Jacob! Oh, my God.
Jacob.
Papa.
He tried to pick him up to carry him back to the house, but then he realised he was dead.
And what did he do? What did brave Daddy do? He did what he always did.
He called Diederick.
What are you saying.
It is for the best, Mary, you must see this.
We've got go to the police.
The police will blame Pieter for what has happened.
They will know that Pieter hit him, that his ring hit him.
It was an accident.
It was an accident.
Yes.
But look at what has happened.
You and Pieter were having sex.
Shh! They will know this.
You chased the boy.
You made him fall over.
It was an accident.
All of it was an accident! You want everyone's lives to be ruined? You have a whole life ahead of you, Mary.
University.
Dreams.
We can help you with all of that.
SHE SOBS Here.
This is good.
All of our lives ended that day.
How could I have blamed you? Klara, please.
Klara Please forgive me.
Klara! Klara! Jack! We searched for Jacob all night and all the next day.
All my life we've been searching for him.
My parents divorced because of it.
I was sent away to school because of it.
I have led the life I have led because of it.
Taking the blame.
And when I stood up that Sunday at the embassy and I told them what Mary had told me I saw Mary last night.
I thought this was going to be a cosy birthday party.
Remember Mary? She told me what happened.
Klara Who's Mary? Mary was looking after us the year Jacob went missing.
'Diederick was furious.
He knew I was telling the truth.
' But no-one would listen to me.
' Mary was there.
Mary told me what happened.
They killed Jacob and they buried him.
Yes! Let's have some more wine.
'Diederick was drunk.
' THEY ARGUE Hey! Just leave it.
'They started to fight, 'the truth turning them against each other.
' They know I'm telling the truth.
THEY CONTINUE TO ARGUE 'Then they started to fight.
' What are you doing?! 'Diederick was crazy, so I ran to get help.
' Craig! I need your help.
What? Quick, they're fighting.
My father Please! Please! He's going to kill him.
Please! Jack's in there.
I need your help, Craig.
What are you doing? Stop it! Oi! Get off of him! Get off! WOMAN SHOUTS IN DUTCH 'Craig broke them up.
' Are you OK, Mr van Buren? Right, sit! Sit down! Please, please, sit down.
HE SPEAKS DUTCH You are crazy! All right! Enough, please! 'My father had blood on his shirt and went upstairs to change.
' All right? Are you OK? I'll be outside, OK? 'But Diederick just wouldn't stop.
' They told me that I was lying.
That Mary was lying.
I knew she was telling the truth.
HE SPEAKS DUTCH Mary told me the truth! Mary was a little whore always looking for money.
First it was Mary, then he blamed me.
Why couldn't you just be the good sister and stay with your brother? Then none of this would have happened.
I know what you're really afraid of.
You think you're going to be an unfit mother.
Then he started on Jack.
And I knew he carried a gun.
Oh, yeah! I shot Diederick.
You're really quite pathetic.
And then he looked at me.
And I shot him again.
And then I saw Trudy running.
The gun jammed.
So I took Craig's.
And then I just didn't want to stop.
I wanted every one of them dead.
I went to try and find my father.
Nee.
Nee, Papa.
GUNSHOT I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I love you, Jack.
I have diplomatic immunity.
Your son's death happened long before you had immunity.
It was Diederick who did it all.
I was in shock.
He gave me no choice.
Just get in the car.
Roger that.
DS Mansfield is arresting the ambassador at the embassy.
What will he be charged with? Perverting the cause of justice, both then and now.
Possible assisted manslaughter.
The sixth place at dinner Yeah.
It's something Klara used to do every meal-time - lay a place for Jacob.
The prodigal son.
There he is! Yes, there he is.
Look, you can see him.
Look! THEY CHEER Photo! Hold it up.
And one more.
Hold it up.
How's that? Very good.
Thank God that's over with.
Well done.
I'm very, very proud of you.
Thank you.
What do we do now? Do we bow or curtsy? She bows, you curtsy.
What did she say to you? She said she hopes she wouldn't see me again for a very, very long time.
Testator silens Silentium Silentium.
Is the gunman still in the building? Possibly, we don't know yet.
How many dead? I counted at least two.
Including one of your officers? Yes.
Constable Ryan Barlow was shot outside the embassy.
Sir.
Front door's opening.
Go! Go! Go! My son I mean my grandson is missing We need to find him now.
I do not need this.
Well, now you no longer have to worry about him.
He's dead.
Not for the first time.
I'm afraid you have to stop the post-mortem immediately.
The Dutch have appointed another pathologist.
Leo Dalton, MBE.
How did you know about the possible privatisation of the department? I thought it was common knowledge.
No.
I can't see Professor Dalton moving on, can you? The van Buren family seem to be cursed.
First his son Jacob went missing in 1996.
Then his brother Diederick was killed in Nigeria three years ago And now all this.
Whitehead's been implicated.
The bullet casing we found beside Barlow's body One nine millimetre hard-nosed bullet.
I drew my weapon and came out of the cloakroom.
Did you see who it was? He's dead.
Yes, and the bullet that killed him came out of your weapon.
Nothing deserves the killing of three people and the taking of my eight-year-old grandson.
Can you tell us what you did see? A man came into the dining room.
He had a gun.
I grabbed Jack and we hid underneath the table.
Oh, my God! I know who he was.
It was Jacob.
Jacob? Your brother? Do you think it's possible? That Jacob's come back, you mean? Yeah.
You don't think so.
It raises more questions than it answers.
Where has he been these last fifteen years? Why come back now? How did he get in to the embassy? Morning.
Why the sudden shooting spree? Is that Jacob? It's the best I can do.
We'll get it to the van Burens and see if they recognise him.
Can you estimate how tall he is? It's all here.
Thanks.
Once they've confirmed it, I'll get it to the press.
Confirm what exactly? Shouldn't we be concentrating on trying to find the boy? Jack was taken by someone we think looks like this.
If we find him, we find the boy.
Trudy van Buren.
Bullet wound to right scapular.
The bullet.
A Winchester Talon Ranger SXT.
It's American; I don't think it's been used in the UK before.
Developed for Air Marshall's 'to offer a substantially better terminal performance.
'.
Hydrostatic shock.
What has that got to do with it? Cause of death.
That bullet seems to have done the trick don't you think? That bullet is designed to offer a combination of expansion, penetration, cavitation and sufficient energy transfer to impart remote wounding and neurological effects.
We should order a dozen immediately.
There is no actual medical evidence for hydrostatic shock in humans, and at that woman The shock produces remote neural damage.
She died of blood loss, James.
SHOT After breaking the skin, the bullet smashed through the ribs, and tore her aorta before tearing out the heart.
It has nothing to do with hydrostatic shock; that expanding, penetrating, energy transferring remote wounding bullet ripped out a bloody great hole inside her.
Here endeth the lesson.
Don't you have a home to go to? No, it's funny, I've seen so many of these but I never get bored.
Sergeant Whitehead and Klara van Buren.
Were you ever going to tell me? Or were you going to let me read about their 'relationship' in the red tops? Who leaked it? I don't care who leaked it.
As you say, we need to keep Jack at the centre of our story.
Not some tawdry bloody affair between one of your officers.
Sorry, sir, I only found out about it yesterday.
Well, you should have told me then.
Yes, sir.
You need to trust me.
No more secrets.
It's not against the law, is it? To have an affair with someone you're also protecting? No.
But Craig was there to protect the whole family.
He was drawn inside the building.
It looks like his personal relationship might have got in the way of his job Did you find anything? I've requisitioned a frozen swab from police storage.
The sample taken from the heath was Jacob's, but there was another sample of blood found at the house.
Less sensitive techniques in 1996 only got a general match for the van Buren men.
Pieter, Diederick or Jacob.
Can we do better than that now? I'm hoping we will be able to identify exactly whose blood it was.
Good.
I also think that maybe you should go over there, to the house in Hampstead Heath.
I doubt whether there'll be any evidence from 1996.
No, but what happened at the embassy almost certainly had its roots in the past.
I suppose.
Especially if Jacob has come back as an avenging angel.
Any more signs of hydrostatic shock out there, James? Was that an ICD? Do you think the ambassador knew he had a bodyguard with a dodgy heart? Doubt he cared.
What was that? Hmm? He's had a sagittal split osteotomy? Is that a silastic cheek implant? Has he got scarring behind the ears? James Faint preauricular incision lines? This guy has he had a face lift? Please.
I am trying to work.
Those teeth don't come cheap either.
If you're deliberately trying to annoy me, you're succeeding.
No, I just didn't know bodyguards were so vain.
His penchant for plastic surgery isn't my concern.
Cause of death is.
So why shoot him twice? Either bullet would have killed him.
Again, not my concern.
Not your concern? Oh, my God! The man was a bodyguard, he was in the dining room with everyone else.
The gunman obviously wanted to make sure he was dead.
At the moment, it's believed that the gunman came from outside the embassy, shot Constable Barlow Excuse me, sir.
Came through reception and towards the dining room, but it makes more sense if the bodyguard was shot first.
Does it? You'd want the bodyguard dead Oh, my God! So then the gunman came out of the dining room and shot Trudy.
Sergeant Whitehead and the ambassador both said the gunman fired at least three shots before coming out of the dining room This is what I remember.
What? You, teaching, like this.
How I passed at all is a miracle? I think we need to take a look.
What now? No.
We can't.
Why not? I haven't finished this post-mortem.
He's not going anywhere, is he? It's not your case.
Shit.
Let's go in mine.
Whatever you like.
If the Lyell Centre were to close, what would you do? Why would it close? Ever thought of becoming an independent? Not seriously, no.
Very nice.
It's just that a friend of mine, another pathologist, planning on setting up a practice and we're looking for a third partner You're offering me a job? You'd be the senior partner, obviously.
Obviously.
I have waited 15 years for my son to come back to me.
But not like this.
Jacob wouldn't kill anyone.
Do you know anything about Jack? I don't, I'm sorry.
I'm sure the police will be doing everything they can, though.
I just hope Klara doesn't have to go through what I've been through.
I read the file.
Why did Klara blame herself for what happened to Jacob? They were playing together In the garden.
It wasn't Klara's fault.
She just got bored playing hide and seek.
This was the day Jacob was taken.
That's Jacob.
His sister, Klara.
Beautiful children.
Yes, thank you.
Klara is coming here to recuperate.
That was me, Pieter, Diederick, Pieter's brother, Diederick's wife, Trudy.
An amazing woman, how she put up with Diederick I'll never know.
We lost touch after he died.
And who's this? Mary Olivant.
An au pair we employed to help us with the children over the summer.
She was a local girl, off to Cambridge, I think.
Apparently, two samples of blood were found.
One here at the house, the other was Jacob's on the heath.
Would you like me to show you? Hi.
The cuts on the arms and legs - self-harming.
Been at it for years.
She probably had a special kit of some sort that she used.
Small knives, tweezers, things like that.
I'll look out for it once we've found out where she lives.
You might also look out for some bottles.
Booze.
She was an alcoholic.
You can tell that? Ah-ha.
Alcohol ends up in the liver where it is metabolised.
The end product, which is fat, along with carbon dioxide.
A fatty liver leads to alcoholic hepatitis.
If you look at the liver you can see.
OK.
I believe you.
Let's have a look at the stomach contents then, shall we? Right.
You don't have to watch.
I think I should.
What's that smell? That's coconut milk And what else? Peanuts? And a spice of some sort, I think.
Nutmeg? There's a picture I can never get out of my mind.
Jacob is being led away by someone.
He's smiling that smile of his and he cries out for me and I hear that call.
Pieter, my ex-husband, is always telling me to move on, but how can you move on when every night you're woken by your son calling your name? This is where the blood was found.
I come here almost every day and I never stop hoping that one day he will be here.
Running towards me and calling out "Mama".
On the Saturday, I took her to a restaurant.
And that's where you had this argument.
Not then.
Klara met some woman, an old friend she said.
She asked me to wait in the car.
That is your job, Craig.
I was off duty.
So you got angry.
There I was, sat like a bloody taxi driver, eating a happy meal outside this amazing Indonesian restaurant in Mayfair.
So when she got back in the car, that is when you had words? Yeah.
And how did the evening end? I drove her back to the embassy, she got out, not a word.
I knew she wasn't going to be easy - I'd read about the rehab, how she'd left home at 15 to live in a squat, had the kid.
So you went in there the next day and shot the hell out of the van Buren family.
Is that what they're saying? Look at me.
Does this job come with a new BMW? And a secretary.
Work when you like.
Big expense account.
No, not interested.
Right.
Barlow's body was there and the bullet casing was here.
Could it have got kicked when everyone was running in and out? I don't know.
Did they go this way? There were CO19 and paramedics everywhere.
That stain is where the ambassador and his daughter were The van Burens are having lunch.
The gunman bursts in, starts shooting.
Klara said she grabbed Jack and they hid under the table.
Oh, my God! The bodyguard gets shot, twice.
Where was Trudy van Buren sitting? Here The handbag.
She gets up and runs out.
The bullet was found here, presumably fired at her as she fled.
And then the gunman chases after her.
And very soon after the shooting starts, Sergeant Whitehead comes out of the bathroom.
I thought he was a suspect.
Can we trust his statement? Who gets shot first, Whitehead or Trudy? Either way, he gets shot.
He drops his gun, the gunman picks it up, and then uses it to shoot Constable Barlow.
That's when Barlow got shot.
I warned you, Harry Cunningham wasn't stupid.
He knows about Diederick? Put it this way, he's getting very warm.
Shit.
He also thinks the shooting started from inside the embassy.
But the bullet casing from the Glock was found outside? Someone must have kicked it or moved it.
Have you finished the post-mortem? Not a chance.
The quicker we get the body out of there the quicker I can get back to what I should actually be doing - finding out who did this.
The night before the shooting, Craig told me you'd had an argument.
Yes, we argued.
I was behaving like an idiot.
He knew that.
Is this really relevant? He had nothing to do with the shooting, I will swear on it on my son's life.
Has someone shown you the computer-generated photo of Jacob? It was him.
He was the gunman.
Why do you think he's come back? Now? I think after he was taken, he was held for many years.
I don't know, maybe he's been told lies about us and now he is an adult he has come to find us.
To take revenge.
So what is going to happen now? Copies of Jacob's photograph will be circulated in the media.
There's been huge interest.
somebody out there will have seen him.
I'll keep you posted.
Thank you.
Heeft u hem ergens? Neen, hij liep af willen vertelde hem aan.
Waarom nog niet ze hem gevonden? Und Diederick? Hebben ze gevonden hem nog? Dr Cunningham? Did James tell you about the bodyguard, the amount of cosmetic surgery he's had? No, I haven't.
I wouldn't expect a report until the post-mortem was completed.
Why do you think he and the bodyguard were having a fight? They were having an argument.
You don't think that's suspicious? No.
We know who he is, we know he isn't the gunman or the kidnapper.
No.
We know who the Dutch say he is.
He was invited to lunch, yes? As far as I know.
And who was the other place laid for? Pieter van Buren, Trudy van Buren, Klara, Jack the bodyguard? Five people to lunch, six places laid.
Now was the other one for the killer? No.
How do you know? The Ambassador might have mentioned it.
I have to get back and finish the PM Do you want a lift? No.
Doctor Cunningham, much as I appreciate No, something else is odd here.
This basket was full of bread, there were more water bottles on this table Has one of your officers taken them? Of course not.
For DNA or fingerprints, or something? No.
Then who's moved them? The blood tests from 15 years ago.
Wow, that was quick.
I think there's been a mistake somewhere.
How do you mean? Well, you know the blood that was found on the nail, in the shed at the house? That was identified as van Buren at the time.
Yeah.
What about it? It's come back without a match.
Maybe the sample could've been contaminated in some way? I don't know, but what I also don't understand is that Diederick's DNA is no longer on the system.
Really? Everybody else who was there that day in 1996 is still on the database.
Maybe the Dutch embassy requested to have it removed.
Can you do that on a case that hasn't been officially closed? 'I don't know.
' Harry's office? Where are you? 'On my way to the embassy.
' Harry said he had something to show me.
Can you call me later? Yeah, bye.
I just want to leave him this.
Over there's fine.
What's going on? Why have you called me here? I think Jack may still be somewhere in the building.
What? Somebody has been taking food from the dining room.
What? Yep, and he can't have been upstairs all this time.
Well, there's too many people.
Yep, exactly.
Where does this lead? It's the heating system.
I never knew that flowers had so many meanings.
This girl had a bouquet, right, containing coriander, which means lust, a white rose, which is secrecy and silence, and a purple hyacinth, which means forgiveness.
Or she just went to a really bad florist.
We have an ID on her.
Mary Olivant.
lived.
Mary Olivant.
What about her? I've just done her post-mortem.
The van Buren nanny, yes? Hampstead Heath.
Why else end her life here, miles from where she lived but only half a mile from the house? Hello again.
This is DC Razvi, Nikki Alexander.
Hello.
Police files say that on the day that Jacob went missing, Mary had been with the family in the morning but was shopping in the afternoon.
What time did she go shopping? Apparently, between two and three.
Which is exactly the time that Jacob disappeared.
The body was just over here, after she was cut down and the bouquet was about here.
She left the flowers as a message.
Did anyone get to her flat? The whole place was spotless.
Mary's landlord said that she worked at a call centre.
Her phone had a couple of messages on it.
Her work colleagues sent her some abusive images and texts.
I did also find out that she had over ã150,000 in her building society account.
From a call centre job? No.
Diederick van Buren was paying in 1,000 Euros a month in her account.
Since when? 1996? Jack! Are you sure about this, Harry? Jack! Here! Jack! Jack, my name's Harry.
I'm a doctor, kind of a doctor.
I bet you're really, really frightened.
I know I would be.
And tired, and really hungry.
Let's see if I've got something.
I've got some Starburst.
Would you like one? Here.
Really fruity.
In fact they were called Opal Fruits when I was young.
Now listen, your mum and your grandfather are both well.
And the gunman has gone so it's completely safe here now and everyone is really, really missing you.
Wants to see you.
Do you not want them? OK, I'll get them back then.
Hello, Jack.
I'm not here to hurt you, OK? I promise you.
You speak English? I've got a phone here.
You could call your mum.
No.
Harry? Yeah, hang on.
OK, can I sit down? You could use the phone to order a pizza.
I always have an Hawaiian personally? What's your favourite? Margherita with olives.
Bit boring but no pineapple? No? Want to order that? Do you want me to order a Margherita, with olives? Maybe a coke? Thank you for finding me.
That's OK.
Harry, are you OK? Yep.
He's here.
We could be wrong.
Mary has been punishing herself for the last 15 years.
The self-abuse.
The abuse of others.
The alcoholism.
She knew exactly where she was going today, and why.
And the flowers.
DULL THUD It's a skull.
MOBILE RINGS Harry? OK, thanks.
Harry's found Jack.
Hey, Jack.
I'm sorry.
It's fine, it's all right.
Thank you so much.
It's OK.
You don't know how much this means to us.
It's good he's been found.
Yeah.
Would it be possible to have a word with you and Katharine in private? Yes, sure.
Join us for a drink.
A body's been found.
Jacob? It's the body of a boy, aged about eight years of age.
Where? Not far from here.
On the heath.
Was he shot or No.
So how do you know it's Jacob? We are not sure yet but Mary Olivant, your au pair that you employed that summer, she committed suicide close to where the body was found.
She was holding this.
Jacob.
He was wearing his gloves on a ribbon through his jacket.
It was summer but he wouldn't let me take them away.
Was it Mary, then, who took him? We don't know yet.
Did she leave a note or anything? Not that we've found.
How soon after he was taken was he killed? Oh, we can't be sure yet.
Do you know how he died? No, tomorrow my colleagues will carry out a post-mortem and then we will be able to tell you much more.
Jacob, my poor little boy.
It's over now.
No Klara must know.
Katharine, please.
No, no, no she has blamed herself all these years.
I'll go and tell her now.
Hello, "hero of the hour".
You should be you getting the MBE, not me.
Yeah.
How were the van Burens? Mixed.
You're not thinking of leaving us, are you? Why do you ask? It's just I've had a request for a reference.
For me? You haven't been approached by anyone? James Sabiston mentioned that he might be setting up a new practice.
And he's offered you a job? I said no.
Somebody thinks you are.
We talked about it.
He said he'd put something in writing.
That was what the envelope was for? MOBILE RINGS What envelope? Sorry.
If Harry leaves, this department closes.
Why? We can't have run a forensic group practice with just two pathologists, can we? How much do you think they're offering him? At least three times what he's getting now, I bet.
We can't compete with anything like that.
What happened when the gunman came into the room? My mother hid me under the table.
We then went outside into the hall and she told me to run.
We both ran but she got caught and I kept running.
I managed to get to the basement, where I hid.
Where did you find the gun? On the floor.
Was it wrong? No, no, no.
You did good.
You know Sergeant Whitehead? Craig? Yeah, of course.
Was he at the embassy on Sunday? He was fighting with my grandfather.
Do you know why? No.
Was he the man firing the gun? I don't know.
I didn't see him.
I just did what my mother told me.
I ran and I ran.
Pass.
What were you talking about, earlier? With Jack? He said he didn't want to talk to the police.
I said he had to.
It was very important.
He's been very brave.
I love you, Klara.
What would you do if someone offered you a job like this? I'm not you.
Leo thinks that if you leave, this department will close.
Rubbish.
He thinks you're irreplaceable.
What is that? It's a defibrillator taken from this mysterious bodyguard.
What's mysterious about him? Any man who's had extensive cosmetic surgery and has a heart problem and ends up having a fight with the person he's meant to be guarding is not your everyday member of close security personnel.
SHE CHUCKLES He's someone the ambassador and powers that be, with the help of James Sabiston, don't want us to know.
Why? He was the reason for the shooting.
He was shot first, and shot twice.
Have you tried DNA and fingerprints? James sent off the samples, the results have come back as Jan Zeeman.
Whoever it really is will have had their details erased from the database.
How old is he? Roughly.
Late 40s.
Why? Blood found at the Hampstead house in 1996.
At the time, there was only a general match for the van Buren men, all of whom had samples of DNA taken to eliminate them.
So you've had it sent off again.
And there's no profile that matches the sample.
Because they almost certainly Have had their details erased.
Diederick van Buren.
Died, April 11th 2008.
Car crash, Abuja, Nigeria.
James, would you mind comparing this blood sample analysis shown to me by my colleague, Doctor Alexander, with this one? I don't want to sound like your teacher.
They come from the same person.
Yes, they do.
This one is taken from the van Buren Hampstead house in 1996.
Ii doesn't match Pieter, it doesn't match Jacob, which only leaves Diederick.
And this one was taken from the body found dead at the Dutch embassy three days ago.
He was still alive.
The bodyguard was Diederick van Buren.
You knew.
You knew he was alive at the embassy and you accuse me of withholding information.
He may not have been the target.
He was wanted for political corruption in Holland He was dead.
No-one knew he was even in the country.
His family did.
He WAS the target and one of my officers was killed and another was seriously injured.
It is imperative that this man's true identity remains unknown.
Why? I asked you a question, sir.
You're on very thin ice, Chief Inspector.
Goodbye, James.
Why would the British Government want to protect someone like Diederick van Buren? 'A police spokesman has confirmed that eight-year-old boy Jack van Buren, 'missing for two days following the shootings at the Dutch embassy, 'is alive and well, but police have refused to comment on details of where and how the boy was found.
' There's a small fracture above the right eye socket.
Is that how he died? I don't think so.
He may have fallen against something or possibly was hit, which has caused this wound here, but at some point, he was either forced or fell backwards or maybe he was hit on the head from behind, which is what caused this fracture on the rear of the skull.
So, there were two injuries? Moving down towards the external occipital protuberance.
The knobbly bit on the back of your head.
They knobbly bit, yes.
And then down to the foramen magnum.
That's where the spinal cord comes out.
Once we get the skull X-rayed, I'd expect to see some fine fractures to the roof of the eye sockets.
And that's what killed him? Initially, it would certainly have rendered him unconscious.
But then? Yeah.
Cause of death.
Why did Klara lie about Jacob being the gunman? To protect her father? Would you mind getting out of the car, please, sir? Yes, I would mind.
Would you get out of the car? This is a car with diplomatic plates.
You have no authority to stop it.
We've identified your brother.
It was not my idea to hide anything from you.
I was instructed.
What was he doing at the embassy? Your intelligence service knew he was here.
He was employed by MI6, a go-between for the Government and many of its leading companies.
Why was he paying Mary Olivant, your au pair, 1,000 euros a month? Was he? Yes.
Was it so she would keep quiet about your son Jacob's death? What? That's rubbish.
Let me through.
What happened inside the embassy? We know your brother brought a weapon into the country.
What were you fighting about? Listen, the gunman came from outside.
No, Mr van Buren.
I don't think there was any outside gunman.
When you brought your daughter out, you picked up a shell casing from the inside and you put it down on the outside near the body of Constable Barlow.
SHE GROANS IN PAIN At the time of the shooting, I was upstairs.
I heard gunshots and I went downstairs, Chief Inspector, can move your car, please? He has been lying to us.
One of my officers is dead and I want him to tell me how it happened.
You can not stop this car.
If and when you do have a case, you can put it to the CPS and they will take it to the Foreign Office.
Move your car.
Did you know where Jack had gone? No.
Thank you for finding him.
Move your car! I'm moving it.
I just wanted to let you know that I won't be going anywhere.
So Nikki tells me.
I'm delighted.
What made you change your mind? My mind was never made up.
But you thought about it? Yes.
Sometimes that's the only way to fully appreciate what you already have.
So, what's the position? Where are we with the university? It turns out that Doctor Sabiston included your name in a bid for this department, and the Home Office were very tempted.
I never said I would join him.
It doesn't matter.
They turned it down.
Why? Well, I did a little bit of rooting around on Dr James Sabiston.
Is it all a very bad dream? Is he a car mechanic? Three years ago, Diederick van Buren "died" in Nigeria, and the pathologist Was James Sabiston.
What is he, some kind of forensic spy? Are you going to report him? What for? Doing what he was asked to do by two governments? I mentioned it to DS Mansfield and said that we would be discreet about all this if he perhaps could petition the Home Office on our behalf.
Blackmail.
I like it.
Please! May I remind you, you're talking to a designated recipient of the MBE! Mary Olivant had a spicy mixture of pala, cengkeh and laos in her stomach contents.
Sounds Indonesian.
Is that the van Buren's old au pair? Yes.
On the night before the embassy shooting, Sergeant Whitehead took Klara van Buren to an Indonesian restaurant.
No.
No.
No.
Jack Jack! What's wrong, darling? Jack! Jack! Jack! Klara! Jack! What's wrong with him? Klara?! Jack! Why did he run away? It's not my fault.
Oh, Klara! It was never my fault.
Why did you say Jacob had come back? Why did you lie? Why is everything about Jacob? Klara! Jack! Jack! Jack! Mrs van Buren Jack's run away again.
We need to speak to Klara.
What for? We need to speak to her urgently.
Katherine, where is she? She's gone to find Jack.
He was there.
He saw what happened.
Jack! Jack! Jack! Jack! Jack! Jack! Klara! This is CI Woods requesting back up.
I'm on Hampstead Heath, Hampstead Lane entrance.
Jack! Klara! Jack! Jack! Klara Klara Please! Klara.
Darling.
Just stay away from me.
You told Jack to lie for you, didn't you? I saw you telling him.
He was lying to the police.
That's what the van Buren's do best, lie through their stinking teeth.
I saw Mary the night before.
Mary? Mary told me everything.
She knew what it was like.
She knew what I have been through.
We showed each other our scars.
Did Mary kill Jacob? No, no, no.
Mary loved Jacob, he was her favourite, and when he got bored, he went looking for her.
And then he found her.
But Jacob saw something he shouldn't have.
MOANING Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh! Jacob! Jacob saw Mary and Daddy screwing in the summerhouse.
No! You knew what he was like.
You knew what he was doing.
And Jacob ran and ran and ran.
Yes! Yes! Yes! Jacob And Daddy chased him, chased and chased.
Jacob Mama! Mama! And Jacob cried for you.
He kept crying for mama, his mama.
No.
And Daddy hit him.
You mustn't do that to him.
So Jacob ran again.
Mary told me he wouldn't stop.
Jacob! Jacob! Jacob! Jacob! Jacob! Jacob.
Jacob! Jacob! He fell.
It was an accident.
Jacob! Jacob! Oh, my God.
Jacob.
Papa.
He tried to pick him up to carry him back to the house, but then he realised he was dead.
And what did he do? What did brave Daddy do? He did what he always did.
He called Diederick.
What are you saying.
It is for the best, Mary, you must see this.
We've got go to the police.
The police will blame Pieter for what has happened.
They will know that Pieter hit him, that his ring hit him.
It was an accident.
It was an accident.
Yes.
But look at what has happened.
You and Pieter were having sex.
Shh! They will know this.
You chased the boy.
You made him fall over.
It was an accident.
All of it was an accident! You want everyone's lives to be ruined? You have a whole life ahead of you, Mary.
University.
Dreams.
We can help you with all of that.
SHE SOBS Here.
This is good.
All of our lives ended that day.
How could I have blamed you? Klara, please.
Klara Please forgive me.
Klara! Klara! Jack! We searched for Jacob all night and all the next day.
All my life we've been searching for him.
My parents divorced because of it.
I was sent away to school because of it.
I have led the life I have led because of it.
Taking the blame.
And when I stood up that Sunday at the embassy and I told them what Mary had told me I saw Mary last night.
I thought this was going to be a cosy birthday party.
Remember Mary? She told me what happened.
Klara Who's Mary? Mary was looking after us the year Jacob went missing.
'Diederick was furious.
He knew I was telling the truth.
' But no-one would listen to me.
' Mary was there.
Mary told me what happened.
They killed Jacob and they buried him.
Yes! Let's have some more wine.
'Diederick was drunk.
' THEY ARGUE Hey! Just leave it.
'They started to fight, 'the truth turning them against each other.
' They know I'm telling the truth.
THEY CONTINUE TO ARGUE 'Then they started to fight.
' What are you doing?! 'Diederick was crazy, so I ran to get help.
' Craig! I need your help.
What? Quick, they're fighting.
My father Please! Please! He's going to kill him.
Please! Jack's in there.
I need your help, Craig.
What are you doing? Stop it! Oi! Get off of him! Get off! WOMAN SHOUTS IN DUTCH 'Craig broke them up.
' Are you OK, Mr van Buren? Right, sit! Sit down! Please, please, sit down.
HE SPEAKS DUTCH You are crazy! All right! Enough, please! 'My father had blood on his shirt and went upstairs to change.
' All right? Are you OK? I'll be outside, OK? 'But Diederick just wouldn't stop.
' They told me that I was lying.
That Mary was lying.
I knew she was telling the truth.
HE SPEAKS DUTCH Mary told me the truth! Mary was a little whore always looking for money.
First it was Mary, then he blamed me.
Why couldn't you just be the good sister and stay with your brother? Then none of this would have happened.
I know what you're really afraid of.
You think you're going to be an unfit mother.
Then he started on Jack.
And I knew he carried a gun.
Oh, yeah! I shot Diederick.
You're really quite pathetic.
And then he looked at me.
And I shot him again.
And then I saw Trudy running.
The gun jammed.
So I took Craig's.
And then I just didn't want to stop.
I wanted every one of them dead.
I went to try and find my father.
Nee.
Nee, Papa.
GUNSHOT I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I love you, Jack.
I have diplomatic immunity.
Your son's death happened long before you had immunity.
It was Diederick who did it all.
I was in shock.
He gave me no choice.
Just get in the car.
Roger that.
DS Mansfield is arresting the ambassador at the embassy.
What will he be charged with? Perverting the cause of justice, both then and now.
Possible assisted manslaughter.
The sixth place at dinner Yeah.
It's something Klara used to do every meal-time - lay a place for Jacob.
The prodigal son.
There he is! Yes, there he is.
Look, you can see him.
Look! THEY CHEER Photo! Hold it up.
And one more.
Hold it up.
How's that? Very good.
Thank God that's over with.
Well done.
I'm very, very proud of you.
Thank you.
What do we do now? Do we bow or curtsy? She bows, you curtsy.
What did she say to you? She said she hopes she wouldn't see me again for a very, very long time.
