Silent Witness (1996) s17e02 Episode Script
Commodity (2)
He's playing his last game for us today.
I came to get him a new contract and you tell me he's out? A sex tape? Pay her.
Eva Liron's dead.
I slept with Eva.
Nathan has no marks on his body whatsoever.
His bloods contained a fatal amount of benzodiazepine.
We normally only allow immediate family.
Sister isn't immediate enough? Rachel doesn't have a sister.
Thomas Chamberlain? That's right.
I'm replacing Professor Dalton.
No, you're not.
You're taking over from him.
I didn't kill her.
Are you listening? I didn't kill her.
The cocktail of anti-psychotic drugs and pain killers used to kill Nathan Freedman is the same as those found in the bloods of Eva Liron.
I think you may be looking for the same killer.
Testator silens Costestes e spiritu Silentium.
Mousa Rashid, male of Asian origin, 39 years old.
Single gunshot wound.
Entry at the external auditory meatus.
Identification by the presence of gas and metallic fragments along the bullet path, which is connected to the entry wound present on the surface of the skin.
Just to eliminate you from what we find, OK.
What's our insurance position on Isaac Dreyfus? Career ending.
No.
It's not his knee.
The bullet passed through bone.
Bone spicules were embedded in the bullet path.
Gas, bone, and metal are present in the brain parenchyma.
It's all copper.
Who uses copper bullets? Dunno.
There is no evidence of temporary capitation.
Mind if I join you? Y-shaped incision.
He wasn't killed where the body was found.
There's no blood spatter in the area.
We've found what we think are traces of purple loosestrife and a black poplar leaf on his shoe, as well as pollen from a wild honeysuckle.
None of these plants were proximate to the body.
I need to find where he was shot.
Livor mortis suggests that he was sitting when he was shot and remained sitting for several hours afterwards before he was moved.
The lines? I think he was sitting on a wooden bench.
Hm.
What's this? Do you have a mirror? Thank you.
Ah.
See that.
".
.
uck City.
" Graffiti.
Such wit.
I know what bench we're looking for.
MAN SPEAKS HEBREW And the true judge be praised.
DISTANT MALE VOICE RECITES PRAYER IN HEBREW VOICE FADES Mousa Rashid died here.
He was left on that bench.
They moved him to make sure he was found.
That would be my guess.
Well done.

Detective Sergeant Anne Burchett, please.
It's about Eva Liron.
Ruth?! HE SPEAKS HEBREW We've already taken DNA from Isaac Dreyfus.
I know.
I'd just I'd just like us to do it.
We'd like to do all our own sampling.
It looks better in court.
You don't trust the police? Open? Can I have your phone number? Come on.
Open! Don't tell me you've never been asked for your phone number before? Only by salesmen.
Do they get it? Can you keep your mouth open? If you don't want to give me yours, I'll give you mine.
I'm done.
I'm not all the things you think I am.
I didn't kill the girl.
I'm not the one who's going to judge you.
Everyone judges me.
That's what they pay to do.
He didn't do it, Dad.
I don't understand what's happening to us.
He didn't do it.
PHONE BEEPS Oh.
They want to interview Isaac again.
I have to go.
He's not perfect.
I know that, but he wouldn't hurt anyone.
I'll do what I can.
Zay-Dee!!! HE LAUGHS One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
Five.
I'll do my best.
You were intimate with her? Oui.
Yes.
How often were you intimate? Once.
When did it happen - the intimacy? Three weeks ago.
And then she just disappeared? Yeah, maybe ten days ago, she left.
And you didn't hear from her again? No, not until she asked for money.
She asked you for money? Yes.
Well, no, not me directly.
Uh, she contacted Mousa or the club.
I don't know which.
How much money? £120,00.
She was blackmailing you? Yes.
Do you want to continue? Of course.
When did you receive the extortion demand? A few days ago.
Speak to Mousa.
I mean, he and McNally, they, they came to see me.
Detective Inspector Leighton.
Have you got that? Now, I don't have an appointment but it would be wise if they would see me right away.
Hello, Sir.
Bazza? Are you here to see Mr McNally and Mr Preston? Yes.
I can walk you through, show you the way.
So, you don't know anything about an extortion? No.
Mousa never mentioned it.
Did Isaac mention it? I think I would remember.
Isaac is really just a boy.
His grasp on the truth was never very secure.
We've terminated Isaac Dreyfus's contract.
He's embarrassed us for the last time.
What was she going to do if you didn't pay her? Well, sheshe had that tape of us.
She was, um, she was going to put it on the internet.
Well, why didn't you go to the police? Because I didn't want it to become public.
Why would it become public? Well, I go to the police.
You arrest her.
You have to say why you're arresting her, don't you? It becomes public.
I had enough problems.
Did you pay? Yes.
Well, no, Mousa did, but it was my money.
In cash? I don't think she wanted a credit card.
Mr Dreyfus's bank will confirm that he drew out £120,000 in cash.
When did Mr Rashid pay her? I don't know.
A few days ago.
A few days ago? How did he pay her? Where? I don't know.
Mousa didn't tell me.
He just told me not to worry.
If you're not going to charge Mr Dreyfus, we'd like to go home now.
Your client's just admitted to having an affair with the deceased and that the deceased was trying to extort money from him - you think he's going home? My client did not commit a crime.
The woman involved is dead.
I didn't kill her.
I'm the victim! You're the victim? Now you can verify Mr Dreyfus's accounts with his agent, Mousa Rashid.
No, I can't.
Mr Rashid's dead.
He's dead? He was killed a few days ago, apparently trying to pay a blackmailer who's been dead a week.
Charge him or release him.
Take him back to his cell.
Eva Liron worked for Adam Freedman's family.
She worked for him and his wife for two months and then quit unexpectedly.
He doesn't know why.
She just left.
Well, same pattern.
Yeah.
Do you still think the Freedmans are a murder-suicide? I had nothing else until now.
You? Dreyfus admits he's slept with her.
He is a dog.
She was, er, trying to extort money from him.
Perfect motive.
Is this all the same case? We'll have to work together? Yeah.
What is it? It's like a cotton bud, and I'm just going to put it inside your mouth.
Here.
Why? We're collecting something special called DNA.
What's that? Good luck.
It's the building blocks of the human body.
Like Lego? Go with that.
Yes.
Can you open your mouth? Perfect.
That's it.
That won't go on the database? We're simply trying to eliminate DNA and fingerprints from the investigation.
Dad? Can you take Zara upstairs and play? Let's go! THEY CHUCKLE Dodo! Oh! Ah, voila.
Merci! De rien.
Do you think my husband did this? This horrible thing? I don't have an opinion.
You don't? Have you seen the papers? Everyone else does.
Everyone thinks they know him.
They think they know what he's capable of because they watch him play football.
They go to a match and chant, "Adolf Hitler.
He's coming for you.
" And hiss like the sound of gas and wait for him to react.
They've never seen him asleep with Zara in his arms or laugh at himself when he's been stupid.
And he can be stupid.
They decide who he is because he got angry during a match.
Or because of a stupid tweet .
.
or because he's Jewish.
The DVD of Dreyfus and Eva Liron gives him motive.
He admits she asked him for money.
It's all we have that ties him to the crime.
That's enough, isn't it? Well, it's circumstantial.
There's no physical evidence.
Her body was found in the skip at the training ground.
There was nothing on the body that proves that he had anything to do with that.
Aren't you meant to be helping me? Let's run through the common factors.
Anne.
Freedman - Dreyfus.
Eva Liron worked as an au pair/nanny for both of them.
So what's the connection? Did both men sleep with her? In both cases she worked for the families for a matter of weeks and then she quit.
Rashid crime scene? TOD? Rigour had passed and vitreous potassium suggest Mousa Rashid had been dead between 24 and 36 hours when his body was found.
He was murdered near the station and his body was moved.
That would require an accomplice.
Was there CCTV coverage where the car was parked? No.
The camera at the train station had its cable cut.
Could he have been murdered before Isaac Dreyfus was taken into custody? Timescale? Yes.
But again we have nothing that ties Isaac Dreyfus to that murder.
Nothing? Dreyfus says that Rashid was delivering the extortion money to Eva Liron.
Who had died at least ten days before, if not more.
He's paying money to a woman he knows is already dead - because he killed her.
Dreyfus kills Eva Liron, then, to create an alibi, blackmails himself.
Double bluff.
And I thought all footballers were ignorant.
Well, except for David Beckham who is, of course, brilliant but a sex pest.
He's not a sex pest.
A girl can hope.
Do I charge him? Let's pretend he's very clever.
Why does he dispose of her body at his place of work? He wants the Detective Inspector to charge him.
And where do the Freedman killings fit? We have the drug link between Nathan Freedman and Eva Liron.
What motive does Isaac Dreyfus have to kill them? I need you to provide physical evidence, not commentary.
Nathan Freedman.
We have unidentified foreign DNA under the fingernails of Nathan Freedman, as well as fibres from an unknown source, found under his fingernails, in his hair, in and around his mouth.
The signature of the Rachel Freedman killing is the same as Rashid.
Single gunshot wound, base of the skull.
Rabbit ears.
The rabbit ear deposit left on the skin is abnormal.
Which makes us think that the bullets were home-made and some sort of silencing device was used.
I recovered a copper slug from the skull of Mousa Rashid and Copper bullets are unusual.
.
.
and there were traces of copper in Rachel Freedman's brain tissue along the bullet path.
Type of gun? Calibre and marking make me think it could be a Russian Baikal IZH-79 pistol.
Well, that narrows it down.
The Baikal is the most commonly used firearm by UK criminals.
Ah.
The markings aren't uniform, which suggests it's a hand crafted gun, not tooled.
Baikals are usually converted from replicas.
Have you mapped the path of the bullet in both cases? Mm-hm.
I'd like to look at the Freedman crime scene.
How'd the window break? Er, we initially thought Adam Freedman broke it to corroborate his fiction of a home invasion.
Get on your knees.
Did you find carpet fibres under her fingernails? Yes.
Along with unknown tissue.
Reach out and grab the carpet.
She comes into the room, sees her son on the floor, she falls to the ground to try and help him.
The killer pulls her back, she claws at the carpet, he shoots her in the back of the head.
Nikki, give us a hand.
Grab the laser and find the angle.
Bullet is somewhere out there.
He's very good.
Why's he got such a bad reputation? He doesn't like police.
I can see that could be a problem.
Dodo.
What? The fibres on Nathan's hands and in his mouth.
There was a child's blanket in the photos.
On the floor next to his body.
He, er He actually called his blanket Baby.
Did you bag it? Where is it? I'llI'll get it.
Somebody's hero.
So, do we feel certain the cases are all related? Well, it's a reasonable assumption, yeah? Will somebody say yes or no?! It's hard to believe coincidence is involved.
If you feel certain that all the cases are related, then is the absence of physical evidenceevidence? So far we've found no physical evidence that links Isaac Dreyfus to any of the deaths.
So what am I doing? Am I charging or releasing Dreyfus? Well, he's capable of it, right? He's a selfish, immature boy with no morals and too much money.
I need more physical evidence.
I need you two to step up.
How have we not stepped up? Do you need a lift, then? No, no, no, no.
How have we not stepped up? Everyone's watching this case and everyone's watching me.
I've got friends I haven't spoken to in ten years ringing me up for a chat.
Do you realise what a fool I'm going to look like if I let him go? That's not going to happen! I need evidence that proves he's guilty.
What happened today? Leighton called - says Jack assaulted him.
What? Grabbed him with some violence.
Well, that's an exaggeration.
Did he touch him? He might have, I didn't really notice.
Sounds like you're sitting on the fence.
Till I'm sore.
That makes it hard for me to know who to believe.
Where is he? Gone to satisfy his masochistic tendency.
We couldn't do that for him? I think Chamberlain could, he was looking for him too.
Copper bullets made by a French firm and used by the German police.
Is Isaac Dreyfus guilty, Nikki? Has anyone done a search to see what Isaac Dreyfus and Adam Freedman might have in common? Besides death? It's literally just round the corner there.
Not ready.
It's me.
Nikki! Why are you here? Well, you know how much I love this sport.
Leighton complained about you to Chamberlain.
I know, I got a phone message.
I'm meant to apologise.
Ouch.
I know.
The fact that we have no physical evidence that links Dreyfus to Eva Liron's death is Unusual, I know.
Can you help me? We have plenty of embarrassing motive but no DNA.
Nothing.
Can you wrap this? He dumps her body at his place of work but manages to leave no trace? The Freedman/Rashid killings, they were executed.
Is that Isaac Dreyfus? I mean, he's rich and he has no shame, but he doesn't need to kill anyone.
Don't you always make a big thing about simply presenting what we find and not interpreting it? Yes.
And then, based on the trajectories He's the wrong height for the bullet's angle of trajectory.
Yes.
Exactly.
He could have done it, but it's unnatural.
Mind you, it's all unnatural.
The police have pinned their careers to him being guilty, but he's not.
You're up! You didn't come here to see me fight? No.
Sorry.
Why can't I just say that he's innocent? Our job is to make other people say that.
I used to have If I thought something, I had I don't know, clarity and BANG ON DOOR Yeah, got it.
On my way! I don't know.
Confidence? Is it confidence? I don't know.
I'm stuck, sitting on a fence.
First Leo and now Chamberlain.
I guess I just want certainty.
I have to We've been looking for evidence to prove that he's guilty.
Maybe we should be looking for evidence to prove that he's innocent.
I'm missing something and I just don't know where to look for it.
Nikki, I have to go.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Go have fun.
Nikki? SHE CHUCKLES Win? You'll have to come all the time.
You're my lucky charm! Great.
Put me on a key ring.
It's a hate crime! What? Between the rounds things go through your mind, right? I'm standing there in Nathan Freedman's bedroom and I think to myself, the lad was a Dreyfus Fan, which is odd for where he lives.
In North London you have three teams - Spurs, The Arse, Manchester United.
Then it hits me - Dreyfus is a Jewish footballer.
The lad was Jewish.
Of course! Ow! Please don't do that.
Sorry.
Just before the beginning of round two, I'm thinking about all this when - bang! - it hit me.
Access.
You give the nanny keys to your house, right? She's a young girl, she's easy to trust, not a threat.
That's the connection, she gives you access.
To do what? Kill.
But nobody died in the Dreyfus family.
Bye, Mummy.
Nikki! Do you have any idea how rich Adam Freedman is? And generous! Jack! You look hideous.
Thanks, babes.
Here.
What's this? Your apology.
My what? You're going to apologise.
Um, I didn't do anything.
Jack, do I care? Do any of us care? I'm apologising to Chamberlain as well? Start with him, he's had to mop up your spill.
Painful.
Can't be as painful as getting your arse kicked.
I won.
Take a little pain here and you'll win this fight as well.
Mm, you're so wise.
That's what they have in common.
Who? Freedman and Dreyfus.
They're both rich and give to charities? Actually, Dreyfus isn't a big charity person.
He's actually quite mean.
In fact, he only gave to one charity.
Sizeable amount.
Yeah, no, really big.
And that's what he has in common with Adam Freeman.
Israel.
Big supporters of Israel.
Please, Ron.
Please.
I don't know what to do, I'm so scared.
Please, you can You have to help us.
Mousa and now this! They're coming for us, I know they are.
Mrs Dreyfus, listen to me Monica! Listen! Isaac doesn't work for us any more.
Your best bet is to call the police.
Jack? Jack's busy.
Have you been at my desk? Jack! What are you looking for? I was working on a spreadsheet of the common factors in the Freedman/Rashid/Liron murders, and now I can't find it.
Did you file it? No, it was on my desk.
Safer if it's filed.
This what you're after? Yes.
Who put it there? Presumably the person who copied it.
That wasn't you? Why didn't he just ask me for it? Who? Chamberlain.
He's looking over my shoulder.
Why? I won't have him checking on me or skewing conclusions.
Morning.
I don't think he'd do that.
I'd take a deep breath, Nikki, just to be sure I wasn't over reacting.
No, you wouldn't.
No.
Don't you trust me? Hmm? Oh! No, on the contrary, I hadn't done a post-mortem for some time.
I enjoyed the opportunity the other day to, to watch someone whom I regard to be extremely accomplished.
Stop, I'm not talking about the post-mortem.
Well I give up.
Someone went through my files and photocopied a highly confidential document.
And you think that was me? Well, who else would have done it? I see.
And why do you think I'd have done this? I don't know.
I don't, either.
Well, you haven't denied it.
You haven't accused me.
You don't want to accuse me, Dr Alexander.
What you want to do is find out who went through your files.
Clarissa, I need you to do something for me.
Skiving? Yep.
Porn? Yep.
What'cha doing? Yep.
OK.
Jack! What? You recognise her? Ruth.
Leaves the last sheet in the photocopier.
What time was it? Er, 9.
42pm.
That's what I heard.
I was on my way out, I heard noises, I thought I was imagining things.
How did she get in? Shalom.
THEY SPEAK HEBREW Leighton and Burchett are on their way.
I'm sorry, I shouldn't have accused you of doing anything.
Well, you didn't accuse me, did you? I'm still sorry.
I mean, I thought that it Accepted.
If I had to apologise for all the things I think, I'd never stop.
Jack! What were they after? Information.
Why? "I'm a passionate person.
"Sometimes people can mistake my passion for anger.
"I regret that.
I'm not angry.
"Please accept my apology "if I've upset you with my quest for the truth.
" "If I have upset you with my quest for the truth.
" PHONE RINGS What moron wrote that? Good, right, send them over, thank you.
Well, apology accepted.
Everybody done apologising? All right, what happened? To his face? With Leighton.
He accused us of not stepping up for him so that he would have the evidence to charge Dreyfus.
Is he right? We stepped up.
There's no physical evidence that ties Dreyfus to the crimes.
He doesn't want to hear that.
I understand.
Sometimes career prospects overpower judgment.
So is that what happened to your face? You hit him.
He hit you back.
No.
No.
Nobody hit anybody.
Maybe you should have.
Do you have a plan? Yes, I do.
The DVD came in a plastic case.
Wasn't wiped clean, fingerprints all over it.
Dreyfus says it was sent to his club.
What's the name of the fella who runs security there? Ron McNally.
David Preston the Chief Exec.
McNally brought it to Mousa Rashid.
They deny it.
If I find their prints on it What? What will that prove? The club is lying and Isaac Dreyfus is being stitched up.
You have prints but nothing to match them to? McNally is retired police.
His DNA and prints will be on the database.
Oh.
Right.
Leighton's not going to want to do this.
I get it.
How confident are you that Dreyfus isn't lying? The evidence doesn't fit.
They're desperately trying to make it fit.
It doesn't.
I'm talking about you.
Are you confident, not confident or on the bloody fence? I'm not on the fence.
I'm confident he's not lying.
Ah, John, come on in.
Lovely to see you both.
Keep it simple, Jack.
Just say you're sorry.
Have a seat, you two.
Right.
Get started, shall we? Jack? Detective Leighton? I'm sorry but Thank you for doing that, Jack.
Well, I hope that's cleared the air, at least a bit.
A bit.
Good.
Well, let's clear the rest of it, shall we? You owe US an apology for suggesting we haven't stepped up.
THEY CHUCKLE Yes, I know.
It's er, it's awkward, isn't it? Let's get it done.
I'm sorry.
Good.
Moving forward.
Ruth came back, we don't know how she got in, we believe she's duplicated documents pertaining to the deaths of Rachel and Nathan Freedman.
Clarissa is preparing the CCTV footage for you.
Yes, I am.
We have had some results back.
The plastic case the DVD came in is covered in Ron McNally's fingerprints.
Hard to explain if the club knew nothing about it.
So the big question is, why would they lie? The whole sorry saga of Isaac Dreyfus has nothing to do with us.
His presence here has damaged us.
It's upset the fans, it's upset our new owners.
We believe the extortion demand was delivered to your club.
We believe her body was dumped on your premises.
We think it has quite a lot to do with you.
I really can't comment further.
We'll need to get legal advice.
Could we get your fingerprints? No.
I don't think so.
I'll need to get legal advice.
We have Mr McNally's already.
They were on file, along with your DNA, from your time in the police.
Thank you for your time.
Dreyfus will make in a morning what that lot make in a year.
Detective Inspector? Can I, er, make an appointment to see you after work so that maybe I can correct some, er .
.
you know, er misimpressions, lapses of memory? Did you know about the extortion? We've got your prints all over the evidence.
If, if I wanted to keep my job .
.
I had to, er .
.
I had to try and, er .
.
I had to lie.
It's OK.
No.
No, it's not.
Four people are dead and I'm releasing the primary suspect.
He may not have done it.
I know, I know.
JOURNALISTS ALL SHOUT OUT QUESTIONS Are you charged with murder? Isaac! How well do you know Eva? When did this happen? We're going.
We're leaving here.
It's not safe.
Where is Zara? At school.
Dad? I can collect her, if it would help.
Thank you.
Thank you.
PHONE RINGS Zampa Management.
Oh, hi, Isaac! Where are you? Well, what is it? Hang on.
They let him go.
He wants us to make him travel arrangements.
I can't face it.
Do you mind? Hi, Isaac, it's Sami.
Thanks, man.
I'm still Don't know.
It doesn't seem real.
Yeah, yeah, course.
Where do you want to go? What? Jack? Yeah.
I've got the results back on the foreign DNA from Nathan Freedman's fingernails and blanket.
It's a familial match to Mousa Rashid - two degrees.
Nephew! Can you put me through to DI Leighton? PHONE BEEPS Jack? She's been asphyxiated in the same way as Eva Liron.
No! You OK? Yeah, sorry.
It's instinctive.
I've come to collect Zara Dreyfus.
I'm her grandfather.
Was it a bomb? Ah, we think it was a gas leak.
We can't get back in until the Bomb Disposal Unit has finished investigating.
OK.
Anne! Ow! Ow! PHONE RINGS Leighton.
When? Dreyfus's daughter's been abducted.
It was an attempted kidnapping.
Wait.
The drugs in Nathan Freedman's system were meant to subdue him, not kill him.
Eva Liron had a key to the house.
So she provided Access.
Exactly.
But not to kill them - to abduct Nathan.
They didn't know that he was autistic.
So when he panicked and struggled They used his blanket to cover his mouth and muffle his screams.
So they gave him more drugs until they killed him.
They didn't mean to.
Why were they the targets? Adam Freedman and Isaac Dreyfus both gave large contributions to Israel.
Terrorism is primarily funded by kidnapping and extortion.
The families were high profile supporters of Israel and soft targets for terrorists.
I was focused on Dreyfus, I I got it wrong.
Do you give a lot of money to Israeli causes, Isaac? No, why would I do that? Are you sure? Of course I'm sure.
I gave money to Israel in your name .
.
for Monica and Zara.
PHONE RINGS Mousa? Hello.
'Two million.
' Sami? 'One hour.
' Where's Zara? Where is she?! Why are you doing this? Oh, God! Is she the accomplice? Two people had to move the body.
She comes here, asks me questions about how Rachel Freedman died.
She obviously didn't think you told her enough.
Still wearing gloves.
What are we looking for? She may have touched something and left DNA.
It's a kidnapping and it's political, so who do you think Ruth is? She's taking a lot of risk to come here and even more to break in.
For what? She allows herself to be photographed but leaves no DNA and no prints? It doesn't feel like she's an amateur.
She's interested in what happened to Rachel and Nathan Freedman.
She breaks in and takes information that links the Freedman/Liron cases.
An accomplice.
Why do you think she's trying to help them? Maybe she's trying to catch them? Clarissa, will you print me a clear image of that woman? I know someone at the Home Office.
It's working.
PHONE RINGS Isaac.
Hello.
'Papa? J'taime.
' Zara! Moi bebe! Are you OK? Zara! 'Are the police with you? 'Don't lie to me.
' Yes.
'No police, you come by yourself.
I see police, I will kill her.
' No police.
'I'll tell you where she is when you bring me the money.
'This is what I want you to do.
' Be careful.
He said no police.
Good luck.
We have someone watching him.
He won't know the police are there.
PHONE RINGS Oui.
PHONE RINGS Oui.
PHONE RINGS Oui.
Where is she? Tell me where she is! Back up.
Why are you doing this, Sami? Shut up, Zionist dog! Where's my daughter? Shut up! I never did anything to you, Sami.
Mousa never did anything to you.
My uncle was filth.
An infidel.
He worked with Jews.
Please, Sami.
My daughter.
She's innocent.
Back up! It's all there, everything you asked for.
On your knees.
Where is she? You said you'd tell me where she was.
GUNSHOT Argh! Sami! No! Please! Sami! Please! Sami! My daughter! Tell me where she is! GUNSHOTS No! My baby! No! Ma bebe! Ma bebe! My little girl! I have to find my little girl.
I have to find her.
Do you know who killed him? A woman and a man, we don't know who they are.
Weren't you here? What about the little girl? Police dogs haven't turned up anything so far but we're tracking the ransom money.
We can tent the body here.
I need to find the girl.
She may already be dead.
I know that.
it's a Jericho 941 round.
Standard issue for Israeli Security Services.
I need your help.
Can you find something, anything, on the body that might tell us where they've taken her? She's a little girl! OK.
So we'll need the tent, light, a table.
Cause of death? Two shots.
Both in the chest.
Why do you think Sami organised the drop to be here? He knew the area? Nikki.
Wild honeysuckle? Yes, I think so.
Purple loosestrife.
She's been drugged.
Check her for benzodiazepine and oxycodone.
The bag's stopped moving.
GUNSHOTS Go, go.
Bazza.
They think the shooter was a woman.
Gun was a Jericho 941 - Israeli.
Same type of gun that killed Sami Rashid.
The Jericho is used by Mossad, Israeli intelligence.
Did, erm, you get anything from the Home Office? I was referred to Counter Intelligence.
They told me not to ask.
The shooters were Mossad.
No idea.
Sent to kill terrorists who had targeted supporters of Israel.
Way above my pay grade, Jack.
That's why they broke into the Lyell Centre, they were tracking the killers.
Is that what you think? I don't know, I didn't ask.
They told me not to.
Here? Oh, ho-ho! Good seats.
Told you.
Whoa.
Can I, can I grab the chair? Go ahead, mate.
Needs a drop of oil.
Thanks.
All right.
Zay-dee! Morning.
Morning.
Just having a little get to know you with Sir Thomas.
he had a good run - 78 years.
Named a building after him and a bust.
Do you know, I'd never considered the possibility before this moment that somewhere, after I'm gone, there might be a bust of me or there might not be.
Either way, hadn't considered it.
Will I ever deserve a bust? If you do get a bust, it won't be for maths.
It's the little things I do to make people feel good, almost without trying.
When I was younger, at school, I was "easy to like".
Hard to believe, really, but that's what people said - not controversial - "easy to like.
" You never really lose that capacity .
.
you just well, park it somewhere safe to be used at a later date.
So, when, in the future or - who knows, maybe right now - you look at me and are filled with loathing, just remember, I'm "easy to like".
HE CHUCKLES I'll try to remember it too.
Mr Bennetto is an ex-soldier who has spent the past five years and four months in prison for the brutal murder of two homosexual teenage men .
.
one of whom, Daniel Harris, was his lover.
It's not exactly my idea of fun, contradicting the original pathologist's findings.
Got an ID for the victim? Nah.
Waiting for you to do the dirty work.
Yes, ma'am.
Security! What are you doing? Get off! Armed police! Stay where you are.
Do not move! Get down! Is that what you did with Daniel's clothes, is it, incinerate them? I've received a request from the police that you be removed from the investigation.
I can't make it up, Nikki, I can't make Bennetto be innocent.
I don't want that.
I came to get him a new contract and you tell me he's out? A sex tape? Pay her.
Eva Liron's dead.
I slept with Eva.
Nathan has no marks on his body whatsoever.
His bloods contained a fatal amount of benzodiazepine.
We normally only allow immediate family.
Sister isn't immediate enough? Rachel doesn't have a sister.
Thomas Chamberlain? That's right.
I'm replacing Professor Dalton.
No, you're not.
You're taking over from him.
I didn't kill her.
Are you listening? I didn't kill her.
The cocktail of anti-psychotic drugs and pain killers used to kill Nathan Freedman is the same as those found in the bloods of Eva Liron.
I think you may be looking for the same killer.
Testator silens Costestes e spiritu Silentium.
Mousa Rashid, male of Asian origin, 39 years old.
Single gunshot wound.
Entry at the external auditory meatus.
Identification by the presence of gas and metallic fragments along the bullet path, which is connected to the entry wound present on the surface of the skin.
Just to eliminate you from what we find, OK.
What's our insurance position on Isaac Dreyfus? Career ending.
No.
It's not his knee.
The bullet passed through bone.
Bone spicules were embedded in the bullet path.
Gas, bone, and metal are present in the brain parenchyma.
It's all copper.
Who uses copper bullets? Dunno.
There is no evidence of temporary capitation.
Mind if I join you? Y-shaped incision.
He wasn't killed where the body was found.
There's no blood spatter in the area.
We've found what we think are traces of purple loosestrife and a black poplar leaf on his shoe, as well as pollen from a wild honeysuckle.
None of these plants were proximate to the body.
I need to find where he was shot.
Livor mortis suggests that he was sitting when he was shot and remained sitting for several hours afterwards before he was moved.
The lines? I think he was sitting on a wooden bench.
Hm.
What's this? Do you have a mirror? Thank you.
Ah.
See that.
".
.
uck City.
" Graffiti.
Such wit.
I know what bench we're looking for.
MAN SPEAKS HEBREW And the true judge be praised.
DISTANT MALE VOICE RECITES PRAYER IN HEBREW VOICE FADES Mousa Rashid died here.
He was left on that bench.
They moved him to make sure he was found.
That would be my guess.
Well done.

Detective Sergeant Anne Burchett, please.
It's about Eva Liron.
Ruth?! HE SPEAKS HEBREW We've already taken DNA from Isaac Dreyfus.
I know.
I'd just I'd just like us to do it.
We'd like to do all our own sampling.
It looks better in court.
You don't trust the police? Open? Can I have your phone number? Come on.
Open! Don't tell me you've never been asked for your phone number before? Only by salesmen.
Do they get it? Can you keep your mouth open? If you don't want to give me yours, I'll give you mine.
I'm done.
I'm not all the things you think I am.
I didn't kill the girl.
I'm not the one who's going to judge you.
Everyone judges me.
That's what they pay to do.
He didn't do it, Dad.
I don't understand what's happening to us.
He didn't do it.
PHONE BEEPS Oh.
They want to interview Isaac again.
I have to go.
He's not perfect.
I know that, but he wouldn't hurt anyone.
I'll do what I can.
Zay-Dee!!! HE LAUGHS One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
Five.
I'll do my best.
You were intimate with her? Oui.
Yes.
How often were you intimate? Once.
When did it happen - the intimacy? Three weeks ago.
And then she just disappeared? Yeah, maybe ten days ago, she left.
And you didn't hear from her again? No, not until she asked for money.
She asked you for money? Yes.
Well, no, not me directly.
Uh, she contacted Mousa or the club.
I don't know which.
How much money? £120,00.
She was blackmailing you? Yes.
Do you want to continue? Of course.
When did you receive the extortion demand? A few days ago.
Speak to Mousa.
I mean, he and McNally, they, they came to see me.
Detective Inspector Leighton.
Have you got that? Now, I don't have an appointment but it would be wise if they would see me right away.
Hello, Sir.
Bazza? Are you here to see Mr McNally and Mr Preston? Yes.
I can walk you through, show you the way.
So, you don't know anything about an extortion? No.
Mousa never mentioned it.
Did Isaac mention it? I think I would remember.
Isaac is really just a boy.
His grasp on the truth was never very secure.
We've terminated Isaac Dreyfus's contract.
He's embarrassed us for the last time.
What was she going to do if you didn't pay her? Well, sheshe had that tape of us.
She was, um, she was going to put it on the internet.
Well, why didn't you go to the police? Because I didn't want it to become public.
Why would it become public? Well, I go to the police.
You arrest her.
You have to say why you're arresting her, don't you? It becomes public.
I had enough problems.
Did you pay? Yes.
Well, no, Mousa did, but it was my money.
In cash? I don't think she wanted a credit card.
Mr Dreyfus's bank will confirm that he drew out £120,000 in cash.
When did Mr Rashid pay her? I don't know.
A few days ago.
A few days ago? How did he pay her? Where? I don't know.
Mousa didn't tell me.
He just told me not to worry.
If you're not going to charge Mr Dreyfus, we'd like to go home now.
Your client's just admitted to having an affair with the deceased and that the deceased was trying to extort money from him - you think he's going home? My client did not commit a crime.
The woman involved is dead.
I didn't kill her.
I'm the victim! You're the victim? Now you can verify Mr Dreyfus's accounts with his agent, Mousa Rashid.
No, I can't.
Mr Rashid's dead.
He's dead? He was killed a few days ago, apparently trying to pay a blackmailer who's been dead a week.
Charge him or release him.
Take him back to his cell.
Eva Liron worked for Adam Freedman's family.
She worked for him and his wife for two months and then quit unexpectedly.
He doesn't know why.
She just left.
Well, same pattern.
Yeah.
Do you still think the Freedmans are a murder-suicide? I had nothing else until now.
You? Dreyfus admits he's slept with her.
He is a dog.
She was, er, trying to extort money from him.
Perfect motive.
Is this all the same case? We'll have to work together? Yeah.
What is it? It's like a cotton bud, and I'm just going to put it inside your mouth.
Here.
Why? We're collecting something special called DNA.
What's that? Good luck.
It's the building blocks of the human body.
Like Lego? Go with that.
Yes.
Can you open your mouth? Perfect.
That's it.
That won't go on the database? We're simply trying to eliminate DNA and fingerprints from the investigation.
Dad? Can you take Zara upstairs and play? Let's go! THEY CHUCKLE Dodo! Oh! Ah, voila.
Merci! De rien.
Do you think my husband did this? This horrible thing? I don't have an opinion.
You don't? Have you seen the papers? Everyone else does.
Everyone thinks they know him.
They think they know what he's capable of because they watch him play football.
They go to a match and chant, "Adolf Hitler.
He's coming for you.
" And hiss like the sound of gas and wait for him to react.
They've never seen him asleep with Zara in his arms or laugh at himself when he's been stupid.
And he can be stupid.
They decide who he is because he got angry during a match.
Or because of a stupid tweet .
.
or because he's Jewish.
The DVD of Dreyfus and Eva Liron gives him motive.
He admits she asked him for money.
It's all we have that ties him to the crime.
That's enough, isn't it? Well, it's circumstantial.
There's no physical evidence.
Her body was found in the skip at the training ground.
There was nothing on the body that proves that he had anything to do with that.
Aren't you meant to be helping me? Let's run through the common factors.
Anne.
Freedman - Dreyfus.
Eva Liron worked as an au pair/nanny for both of them.
So what's the connection? Did both men sleep with her? In both cases she worked for the families for a matter of weeks and then she quit.
Rashid crime scene? TOD? Rigour had passed and vitreous potassium suggest Mousa Rashid had been dead between 24 and 36 hours when his body was found.
He was murdered near the station and his body was moved.
That would require an accomplice.
Was there CCTV coverage where the car was parked? No.
The camera at the train station had its cable cut.
Could he have been murdered before Isaac Dreyfus was taken into custody? Timescale? Yes.
But again we have nothing that ties Isaac Dreyfus to that murder.
Nothing? Dreyfus says that Rashid was delivering the extortion money to Eva Liron.
Who had died at least ten days before, if not more.
He's paying money to a woman he knows is already dead - because he killed her.
Dreyfus kills Eva Liron, then, to create an alibi, blackmails himself.
Double bluff.
And I thought all footballers were ignorant.
Well, except for David Beckham who is, of course, brilliant but a sex pest.
He's not a sex pest.
A girl can hope.
Do I charge him? Let's pretend he's very clever.
Why does he dispose of her body at his place of work? He wants the Detective Inspector to charge him.
And where do the Freedman killings fit? We have the drug link between Nathan Freedman and Eva Liron.
What motive does Isaac Dreyfus have to kill them? I need you to provide physical evidence, not commentary.
Nathan Freedman.
We have unidentified foreign DNA under the fingernails of Nathan Freedman, as well as fibres from an unknown source, found under his fingernails, in his hair, in and around his mouth.
The signature of the Rachel Freedman killing is the same as Rashid.
Single gunshot wound, base of the skull.
Rabbit ears.
The rabbit ear deposit left on the skin is abnormal.
Which makes us think that the bullets were home-made and some sort of silencing device was used.
I recovered a copper slug from the skull of Mousa Rashid and Copper bullets are unusual.
.
.
and there were traces of copper in Rachel Freedman's brain tissue along the bullet path.
Type of gun? Calibre and marking make me think it could be a Russian Baikal IZH-79 pistol.
Well, that narrows it down.
The Baikal is the most commonly used firearm by UK criminals.
Ah.
The markings aren't uniform, which suggests it's a hand crafted gun, not tooled.
Baikals are usually converted from replicas.
Have you mapped the path of the bullet in both cases? Mm-hm.
I'd like to look at the Freedman crime scene.
How'd the window break? Er, we initially thought Adam Freedman broke it to corroborate his fiction of a home invasion.
Get on your knees.
Did you find carpet fibres under her fingernails? Yes.
Along with unknown tissue.
Reach out and grab the carpet.
She comes into the room, sees her son on the floor, she falls to the ground to try and help him.
The killer pulls her back, she claws at the carpet, he shoots her in the back of the head.
Nikki, give us a hand.
Grab the laser and find the angle.
Bullet is somewhere out there.
He's very good.
Why's he got such a bad reputation? He doesn't like police.
I can see that could be a problem.
Dodo.
What? The fibres on Nathan's hands and in his mouth.
There was a child's blanket in the photos.
On the floor next to his body.
He, er He actually called his blanket Baby.
Did you bag it? Where is it? I'llI'll get it.
Somebody's hero.
So, do we feel certain the cases are all related? Well, it's a reasonable assumption, yeah? Will somebody say yes or no?! It's hard to believe coincidence is involved.
If you feel certain that all the cases are related, then is the absence of physical evidenceevidence? So far we've found no physical evidence that links Isaac Dreyfus to any of the deaths.
So what am I doing? Am I charging or releasing Dreyfus? Well, he's capable of it, right? He's a selfish, immature boy with no morals and too much money.
I need more physical evidence.
I need you two to step up.
How have we not stepped up? Do you need a lift, then? No, no, no, no.
How have we not stepped up? Everyone's watching this case and everyone's watching me.
I've got friends I haven't spoken to in ten years ringing me up for a chat.
Do you realise what a fool I'm going to look like if I let him go? That's not going to happen! I need evidence that proves he's guilty.
What happened today? Leighton called - says Jack assaulted him.
What? Grabbed him with some violence.
Well, that's an exaggeration.
Did he touch him? He might have, I didn't really notice.
Sounds like you're sitting on the fence.
Till I'm sore.
That makes it hard for me to know who to believe.
Where is he? Gone to satisfy his masochistic tendency.
We couldn't do that for him? I think Chamberlain could, he was looking for him too.
Copper bullets made by a French firm and used by the German police.
Is Isaac Dreyfus guilty, Nikki? Has anyone done a search to see what Isaac Dreyfus and Adam Freedman might have in common? Besides death? It's literally just round the corner there.
Not ready.
It's me.
Nikki! Why are you here? Well, you know how much I love this sport.
Leighton complained about you to Chamberlain.
I know, I got a phone message.
I'm meant to apologise.
Ouch.
I know.
The fact that we have no physical evidence that links Dreyfus to Eva Liron's death is Unusual, I know.
Can you help me? We have plenty of embarrassing motive but no DNA.
Nothing.
Can you wrap this? He dumps her body at his place of work but manages to leave no trace? The Freedman/Rashid killings, they were executed.
Is that Isaac Dreyfus? I mean, he's rich and he has no shame, but he doesn't need to kill anyone.
Don't you always make a big thing about simply presenting what we find and not interpreting it? Yes.
And then, based on the trajectories He's the wrong height for the bullet's angle of trajectory.
Yes.
Exactly.
He could have done it, but it's unnatural.
Mind you, it's all unnatural.
The police have pinned their careers to him being guilty, but he's not.
You're up! You didn't come here to see me fight? No.
Sorry.
Why can't I just say that he's innocent? Our job is to make other people say that.
I used to have If I thought something, I had I don't know, clarity and BANG ON DOOR Yeah, got it.
On my way! I don't know.
Confidence? Is it confidence? I don't know.
I'm stuck, sitting on a fence.
First Leo and now Chamberlain.
I guess I just want certainty.
I have to We've been looking for evidence to prove that he's guilty.
Maybe we should be looking for evidence to prove that he's innocent.
I'm missing something and I just don't know where to look for it.
Nikki, I have to go.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Go have fun.
Nikki? SHE CHUCKLES Win? You'll have to come all the time.
You're my lucky charm! Great.
Put me on a key ring.
It's a hate crime! What? Between the rounds things go through your mind, right? I'm standing there in Nathan Freedman's bedroom and I think to myself, the lad was a Dreyfus Fan, which is odd for where he lives.
In North London you have three teams - Spurs, The Arse, Manchester United.
Then it hits me - Dreyfus is a Jewish footballer.
The lad was Jewish.
Of course! Ow! Please don't do that.
Sorry.
Just before the beginning of round two, I'm thinking about all this when - bang! - it hit me.
Access.
You give the nanny keys to your house, right? She's a young girl, she's easy to trust, not a threat.
That's the connection, she gives you access.
To do what? Kill.
But nobody died in the Dreyfus family.
Bye, Mummy.
Nikki! Do you have any idea how rich Adam Freedman is? And generous! Jack! You look hideous.
Thanks, babes.
Here.
What's this? Your apology.
My what? You're going to apologise.
Um, I didn't do anything.
Jack, do I care? Do any of us care? I'm apologising to Chamberlain as well? Start with him, he's had to mop up your spill.
Painful.
Can't be as painful as getting your arse kicked.
I won.
Take a little pain here and you'll win this fight as well.
Mm, you're so wise.
That's what they have in common.
Who? Freedman and Dreyfus.
They're both rich and give to charities? Actually, Dreyfus isn't a big charity person.
He's actually quite mean.
In fact, he only gave to one charity.
Sizeable amount.
Yeah, no, really big.
And that's what he has in common with Adam Freeman.
Israel.
Big supporters of Israel.
Please, Ron.
Please.
I don't know what to do, I'm so scared.
Please, you can You have to help us.
Mousa and now this! They're coming for us, I know they are.
Mrs Dreyfus, listen to me Monica! Listen! Isaac doesn't work for us any more.
Your best bet is to call the police.
Jack? Jack's busy.
Have you been at my desk? Jack! What are you looking for? I was working on a spreadsheet of the common factors in the Freedman/Rashid/Liron murders, and now I can't find it.
Did you file it? No, it was on my desk.
Safer if it's filed.
This what you're after? Yes.
Who put it there? Presumably the person who copied it.
That wasn't you? Why didn't he just ask me for it? Who? Chamberlain.
He's looking over my shoulder.
Why? I won't have him checking on me or skewing conclusions.
Morning.
I don't think he'd do that.
I'd take a deep breath, Nikki, just to be sure I wasn't over reacting.
No, you wouldn't.
No.
Don't you trust me? Hmm? Oh! No, on the contrary, I hadn't done a post-mortem for some time.
I enjoyed the opportunity the other day to, to watch someone whom I regard to be extremely accomplished.
Stop, I'm not talking about the post-mortem.
Well I give up.
Someone went through my files and photocopied a highly confidential document.
And you think that was me? Well, who else would have done it? I see.
And why do you think I'd have done this? I don't know.
I don't, either.
Well, you haven't denied it.
You haven't accused me.
You don't want to accuse me, Dr Alexander.
What you want to do is find out who went through your files.
Clarissa, I need you to do something for me.
Skiving? Yep.
Porn? Yep.
What'cha doing? Yep.
OK.
Jack! What? You recognise her? Ruth.
Leaves the last sheet in the photocopier.
What time was it? Er, 9.
42pm.
That's what I heard.
I was on my way out, I heard noises, I thought I was imagining things.
How did she get in? Shalom.
THEY SPEAK HEBREW Leighton and Burchett are on their way.
I'm sorry, I shouldn't have accused you of doing anything.
Well, you didn't accuse me, did you? I'm still sorry.
I mean, I thought that it Accepted.
If I had to apologise for all the things I think, I'd never stop.
Jack! What were they after? Information.
Why? "I'm a passionate person.
"Sometimes people can mistake my passion for anger.
"I regret that.
I'm not angry.
"Please accept my apology "if I've upset you with my quest for the truth.
" "If I have upset you with my quest for the truth.
" PHONE RINGS What moron wrote that? Good, right, send them over, thank you.
Well, apology accepted.
Everybody done apologising? All right, what happened? To his face? With Leighton.
He accused us of not stepping up for him so that he would have the evidence to charge Dreyfus.
Is he right? We stepped up.
There's no physical evidence that ties Dreyfus to the crimes.
He doesn't want to hear that.
I understand.
Sometimes career prospects overpower judgment.
So is that what happened to your face? You hit him.
He hit you back.
No.
No.
Nobody hit anybody.
Maybe you should have.
Do you have a plan? Yes, I do.
The DVD came in a plastic case.
Wasn't wiped clean, fingerprints all over it.
Dreyfus says it was sent to his club.
What's the name of the fella who runs security there? Ron McNally.
David Preston the Chief Exec.
McNally brought it to Mousa Rashid.
They deny it.
If I find their prints on it What? What will that prove? The club is lying and Isaac Dreyfus is being stitched up.
You have prints but nothing to match them to? McNally is retired police.
His DNA and prints will be on the database.
Oh.
Right.
Leighton's not going to want to do this.
I get it.
How confident are you that Dreyfus isn't lying? The evidence doesn't fit.
They're desperately trying to make it fit.
It doesn't.
I'm talking about you.
Are you confident, not confident or on the bloody fence? I'm not on the fence.
I'm confident he's not lying.
Ah, John, come on in.
Lovely to see you both.
Keep it simple, Jack.
Just say you're sorry.
Have a seat, you two.
Right.
Get started, shall we? Jack? Detective Leighton? I'm sorry but Thank you for doing that, Jack.
Well, I hope that's cleared the air, at least a bit.
A bit.
Good.
Well, let's clear the rest of it, shall we? You owe US an apology for suggesting we haven't stepped up.
THEY CHUCKLE Yes, I know.
It's er, it's awkward, isn't it? Let's get it done.
I'm sorry.
Good.
Moving forward.
Ruth came back, we don't know how she got in, we believe she's duplicated documents pertaining to the deaths of Rachel and Nathan Freedman.
Clarissa is preparing the CCTV footage for you.
Yes, I am.
We have had some results back.
The plastic case the DVD came in is covered in Ron McNally's fingerprints.
Hard to explain if the club knew nothing about it.
So the big question is, why would they lie? The whole sorry saga of Isaac Dreyfus has nothing to do with us.
His presence here has damaged us.
It's upset the fans, it's upset our new owners.
We believe the extortion demand was delivered to your club.
We believe her body was dumped on your premises.
We think it has quite a lot to do with you.
I really can't comment further.
We'll need to get legal advice.
Could we get your fingerprints? No.
I don't think so.
I'll need to get legal advice.
We have Mr McNally's already.
They were on file, along with your DNA, from your time in the police.
Thank you for your time.
Dreyfus will make in a morning what that lot make in a year.
Detective Inspector? Can I, er, make an appointment to see you after work so that maybe I can correct some, er .
.
you know, er misimpressions, lapses of memory? Did you know about the extortion? We've got your prints all over the evidence.
If, if I wanted to keep my job .
.
I had to, er .
.
I had to try and, er .
.
I had to lie.
It's OK.
No.
No, it's not.
Four people are dead and I'm releasing the primary suspect.
He may not have done it.
I know, I know.
JOURNALISTS ALL SHOUT OUT QUESTIONS Are you charged with murder? Isaac! How well do you know Eva? When did this happen? We're going.
We're leaving here.
It's not safe.
Where is Zara? At school.
Dad? I can collect her, if it would help.
Thank you.
Thank you.
PHONE RINGS Zampa Management.
Oh, hi, Isaac! Where are you? Well, what is it? Hang on.
They let him go.
He wants us to make him travel arrangements.
I can't face it.
Do you mind? Hi, Isaac, it's Sami.
Thanks, man.
I'm still Don't know.
It doesn't seem real.
Yeah, yeah, course.
Where do you want to go? What? Jack? Yeah.
I've got the results back on the foreign DNA from Nathan Freedman's fingernails and blanket.
It's a familial match to Mousa Rashid - two degrees.
Nephew! Can you put me through to DI Leighton? PHONE BEEPS Jack? She's been asphyxiated in the same way as Eva Liron.
No! You OK? Yeah, sorry.
It's instinctive.
I've come to collect Zara Dreyfus.
I'm her grandfather.
Was it a bomb? Ah, we think it was a gas leak.
We can't get back in until the Bomb Disposal Unit has finished investigating.
OK.
Anne! Ow! Ow! PHONE RINGS Leighton.
When? Dreyfus's daughter's been abducted.
It was an attempted kidnapping.
Wait.
The drugs in Nathan Freedman's system were meant to subdue him, not kill him.
Eva Liron had a key to the house.
So she provided Access.
Exactly.
But not to kill them - to abduct Nathan.
They didn't know that he was autistic.
So when he panicked and struggled They used his blanket to cover his mouth and muffle his screams.
So they gave him more drugs until they killed him.
They didn't mean to.
Why were they the targets? Adam Freedman and Isaac Dreyfus both gave large contributions to Israel.
Terrorism is primarily funded by kidnapping and extortion.
The families were high profile supporters of Israel and soft targets for terrorists.
I was focused on Dreyfus, I I got it wrong.
Do you give a lot of money to Israeli causes, Isaac? No, why would I do that? Are you sure? Of course I'm sure.
I gave money to Israel in your name .
.
for Monica and Zara.
PHONE RINGS Mousa? Hello.
'Two million.
' Sami? 'One hour.
' Where's Zara? Where is she?! Why are you doing this? Oh, God! Is she the accomplice? Two people had to move the body.
She comes here, asks me questions about how Rachel Freedman died.
She obviously didn't think you told her enough.
Still wearing gloves.
What are we looking for? She may have touched something and left DNA.
It's a kidnapping and it's political, so who do you think Ruth is? She's taking a lot of risk to come here and even more to break in.
For what? She allows herself to be photographed but leaves no DNA and no prints? It doesn't feel like she's an amateur.
She's interested in what happened to Rachel and Nathan Freedman.
She breaks in and takes information that links the Freedman/Liron cases.
An accomplice.
Why do you think she's trying to help them? Maybe she's trying to catch them? Clarissa, will you print me a clear image of that woman? I know someone at the Home Office.
It's working.
PHONE RINGS Isaac.
Hello.
'Papa? J'taime.
' Zara! Moi bebe! Are you OK? Zara! 'Are the police with you? 'Don't lie to me.
' Yes.
'No police, you come by yourself.
I see police, I will kill her.
' No police.
'I'll tell you where she is when you bring me the money.
'This is what I want you to do.
' Be careful.
He said no police.
Good luck.
We have someone watching him.
He won't know the police are there.
PHONE RINGS Oui.
PHONE RINGS Oui.
PHONE RINGS Oui.
Where is she? Tell me where she is! Back up.
Why are you doing this, Sami? Shut up, Zionist dog! Where's my daughter? Shut up! I never did anything to you, Sami.
Mousa never did anything to you.
My uncle was filth.
An infidel.
He worked with Jews.
Please, Sami.
My daughter.
She's innocent.
Back up! It's all there, everything you asked for.
On your knees.
Where is she? You said you'd tell me where she was.
GUNSHOT Argh! Sami! No! Please! Sami! Please! Sami! My daughter! Tell me where she is! GUNSHOTS No! My baby! No! Ma bebe! Ma bebe! My little girl! I have to find my little girl.
I have to find her.
Do you know who killed him? A woman and a man, we don't know who they are.
Weren't you here? What about the little girl? Police dogs haven't turned up anything so far but we're tracking the ransom money.
We can tent the body here.
I need to find the girl.
She may already be dead.
I know that.
it's a Jericho 941 round.
Standard issue for Israeli Security Services.
I need your help.
Can you find something, anything, on the body that might tell us where they've taken her? She's a little girl! OK.
So we'll need the tent, light, a table.
Cause of death? Two shots.
Both in the chest.
Why do you think Sami organised the drop to be here? He knew the area? Nikki.
Wild honeysuckle? Yes, I think so.
Purple loosestrife.
She's been drugged.
Check her for benzodiazepine and oxycodone.
The bag's stopped moving.
GUNSHOTS Go, go.
Bazza.
They think the shooter was a woman.
Gun was a Jericho 941 - Israeli.
Same type of gun that killed Sami Rashid.
The Jericho is used by Mossad, Israeli intelligence.
Did, erm, you get anything from the Home Office? I was referred to Counter Intelligence.
They told me not to ask.
The shooters were Mossad.
No idea.
Sent to kill terrorists who had targeted supporters of Israel.
Way above my pay grade, Jack.
That's why they broke into the Lyell Centre, they were tracking the killers.
Is that what you think? I don't know, I didn't ask.
They told me not to.
Here? Oh, ho-ho! Good seats.
Told you.
Whoa.
Can I, can I grab the chair? Go ahead, mate.
Needs a drop of oil.
Thanks.
All right.
Zay-dee! Morning.
Morning.
Just having a little get to know you with Sir Thomas.
he had a good run - 78 years.
Named a building after him and a bust.
Do you know, I'd never considered the possibility before this moment that somewhere, after I'm gone, there might be a bust of me or there might not be.
Either way, hadn't considered it.
Will I ever deserve a bust? If you do get a bust, it won't be for maths.
It's the little things I do to make people feel good, almost without trying.
When I was younger, at school, I was "easy to like".
Hard to believe, really, but that's what people said - not controversial - "easy to like.
" You never really lose that capacity .
.
you just well, park it somewhere safe to be used at a later date.
So, when, in the future or - who knows, maybe right now - you look at me and are filled with loathing, just remember, I'm "easy to like".
HE CHUCKLES I'll try to remember it too.
Mr Bennetto is an ex-soldier who has spent the past five years and four months in prison for the brutal murder of two homosexual teenage men .
.
one of whom, Daniel Harris, was his lover.
It's not exactly my idea of fun, contradicting the original pathologist's findings.
Got an ID for the victim? Nah.
Waiting for you to do the dirty work.
Yes, ma'am.
Security! What are you doing? Get off! Armed police! Stay where you are.
Do not move! Get down! Is that what you did with Daniel's clothes, is it, incinerate them? I've received a request from the police that you be removed from the investigation.
I can't make it up, Nikki, I can't make Bennetto be innocent.
I don't want that.
