DI Sarah Torres. Welcome to The Garden of England.
You've heard about that lorry they found down the M20, right?
What happened here? Sex trafficking.
So who were these people?
Body one, the driver.
The fracture damaged his median nerve.
So he might not have been able to drive a seven-and-a-half-ton lorry.
Natia Beridze. Georgian.
Maeve Tooney.
Appears to have a single stab wound.
After her brother, Robbie, disappeared,
he got sucked in to drugs.
Any survivors? Two women.
One of them has an accent. Possibly Eastern European.
One man, William Sturton, a drug dealer.
He befriended her, groomed her.
Maybe that's his role in all this.
The UK is the only place the lorry's been recently.
They weren't being trafficked in to the UK?
I think they were being trafficked out.
Your son has a good chance of receiving a new heart.
She was admitted last week.
No parents around, apparently.
As a ward of court, she'll go in to group one.
He's gone.
Will?

FAINT CHATTER
Lyell Centre Forensics.
I'm working with DI Torres, any sign of her?
We haven't found her yet. We'll let you know when we do.
What about the male patient, Will Sturton?
Neither of them.
Where's the search team?
Down that way. Thank you.
Torres?
Torres.
PHONE LINE RINGS Yeah, ambulance.
Royal Byfield Hospital. Basement freezer room.
Quick as you can.
She suffered a heart arrythmia.
Maybe her experience on the lorry triggered an underlying condition.
Thank God you found them.
Is she alive? Thanks to you.
Has Will Sturton been found?
Not yet.
They better find him soon,
he's in danger of going back into renal failure.
I thought it was Will in the basement, but it was her.
If she's in the UK illegally,
then maybe she's afraid of authorities?
Can I get out of here now, please?
Obs are stable.
Even if they weren't,
something tells me we wouldn't be able to stop you.
The genetic profile is back on Natia.
She had Steinert's disease. What's that?
Steinert's is a genetic multi-system disorder
associated with cardiac conduction malfunction.
If Natia was involved in some kind of altercation in the lorry,
it would have taken very little to cause cardiac arrest.
So she had Steinert's disease and Body One had oesophageal cancer.
That's a high proportion of passengers
with serious health problems.
Maybe Natia and Body One were seeking treatment.
So let's say he came over for treatment.
Then he had to be smuggled back out of the country?
If he was actually a passenger, then it looks that way.
Is there any chance that he could have driven the lorry?
I mean, we did find him in the cab.
Steinert's caused Natia's cardiomyopathy.
But she had ACE inhibitors with her, so she was managing her condition.
Why would she sneak across borders for a condition
that was under control?
Steinert's is inherited.
If Natia had a child by C-section,
then there's a 50% chance she passed it on.
Her condition might have been under control,
but what if her child's wasn't?
Maybe Natia wasn't searching for treatment for herself.
There's a nine-year-old girl at the Children's Hospital.
She was abandoned at the front entrance two weeks ago.
I've seen her on TV.
Yes, the media are calling her a health tourist.
Does she have Steinert's?
I don't know.
But I know someone who will. Let us know what you find.
Where are you going?
To see if I can drive a seven-and-a-half-ton truck
with one arm.
She's doing well.
The doctors think it may have been a
transient disturbance of the heart rhythm,
not a heart attack.
Can you tell me which room William Sturton was in, please?
Sure.
Thank you for taking the time.
It's a delicate matter.
It's about the police case I'm working on.
A pretty serious one, actually.
I've spoken to my colleagues.
There were some reservations about disclosing the information.
But you were right about the girl.
Steinert's? Mm-hm.
Does this have anything to do with her parents?
Can you help us find her mother?
Jack.
Morning.
Keys in there?
Yeah, they're in it. Yeah.
Super.
Don't use your left arm.
ENGINE REVS
All right, let's give this a go.
Not easy. How the hell did he do this?
Here he comes.
I've done something bad.
OK...
The CCTV that the detective showed you... Mm-hm.
..the car and the lorry... Mm-hm.
I downloaded it. What?
Oh... That could be considered tampering with evidence, Velvy.
And I sent it to a friend. A new friend, actually.
I met him at Brazilian jiu-jitsu. Oh, God.
He works at a digital effects house.
That's the name for it, he says.
And they work on digital stuff for movies,
and they have this software. It builds images out of...
..well, other images.
There.
I checked the registration against the DVLA database
and then against the Local Authority Records.
The car is a taxi cab from Gravesend.
Velvy...
Welcome to the A-team.
VELVY CHUCKLES
Why did Will call this place from the hospital?
Wait here.
If I'm not out in ten, call for backup. Mm-hm.
Jason around?
Kitchen.
Jason Corrigan?
You're Will Sturton's cousin.
You know I'm police, right?
I know that Will called you from the hospital.
Look, I'm asking nicely,
which is very uncharacteristic for me.
Don't make me be my normal self.
He's not well.
You need to help him.
Tell me where he is and I can get a medical team to him.
He's in the back. Through there.
DOOR SLAMS OPEN
Will!
Will! Let me help you!
Ugh!
Unit to Pelham Crescent. Suspect abducted.
Black Cherokee Jeep.
Get him!
KNOCKING
Sorry.
I got your message about the girl at the Children's Hospital.
It's Steinert's.
It is.
Also, they let me have the CCTV footage
from when she was left at A&E.
You can't see who dropped her off.
Could that be Natia?
We've got authorisation to do a DNA test to confirm
if Natia was the girl's mother.
So you know people at Melfort Children's?
I've been doing some voluntary work
for the Paediatric Transplant Charity.
What made you volunteer for them?
Was it someone you knew?
No.
Nothing like that.
When we first met,
you said the last postmortem you did was a few years ago.
Was it a child?
HE CLEARS HIS THROAT
Dev Basu.
Eight years old.
He needed a liver transplant,
but the centre wouldn't submit him to the transplant list
because they concluded his autism
made aftercare too painful and risky.
It made me angry.
It still makes me angry.
Hey, Nikki, we're in Gravesend.
Yeah, I just spoke to the taxi driver.
About a week ago he took a cash fare from a guy
who got him to follow a white lorry. Any idea who he was?
Taxi driver said the guy had a gammy arm.
That's a direct quote for you.
We'll go and check the location he dropped them off now. OK?
Why here?
Because it's nowhere.
Looks like whoever drove the lorry switched the plates here.
You think this is where the passengers joined the lorry?
THEY SHOUT
Looks like it could be stolen.
Yep. Very stolen.
Maeve Tooney.
Maeve didn't come alone.
Will Sturton drove her here.
Nikki, the DNA is back.
Natia isn't the girl's mother.
Well, Steinert's is pretty rare. It's inherited.
That can't be a coincidence, can it?
I've been doing a little more digging.
It's a charity in Georgia for people affected by muscular dystrophy.
Natia's baby died from Steinert's two years ago.
His name was Petre.
Her tattoo.
"P" for Petre.
After his death, she moved to London, a new start.
Then...I found this.
Ketevan.
The name in the good luck card.
She's still at the hospital.
She could be the mother of the abandoned girl.
Gabriel.
The consultants asked me to tell them if we can find a link
with the girl in our case.
Is that a good idea?
It's sensitive.
It's sparked some pretty feverish headlines.
I'm just thinking of the Lyell's impartiality.
If we can help them, why wouldn't we?
Ketevan Gvazava?
VOICE MESSAGE IN GEORGIAN PLAYS
IN ENGLISH: She's dying, Ketevan.
Your daughter.
This isn't bloody working.
I need to find a translator.
You're not her?
Then who is?
You're Ketevan Gvazava.
You gave the other woman your coat with the card in it.
At least now I know the name of the woman whose life I saved.
What are you afraid of?
I think the girl in the news is your daughter.
She's dying, Ketevan.
She suffers from Steinert's, just like you, like Natia.
It's why you had the sudden cardiac arrhythmia.
I don't know the kid.
Then take a DNA test to prove it.
Why don't you want to be with your daughter, Ketevan?
At least give us a name so the doctors know what to call her.
Your daughter needs you, Ketevan.
WHISPERS: The doctor is going to look after you.
SHE SPEAKS GEORGIAN
We need to go, come on.
INAUDIBLE
SHE WEEPS
She's fine.
She's safe, she's safe.
You're not giving me much choice.
Ketevan Gvazava, I'm arresting you on suspicion of child abandonment.
You'll be transferred to a holding cell
as soon as the doctors allow it.
He's been moved to HDU.
When's a heart coming? Hmm?
Tommy needs you to stay strong.
First, speak to the charity.
The counsellors are there to support parents at moments like this.
What did the doctor say exactly?
Uh, that he's got ventricular thrombus.
He's out of time, isn't he?
Professor, thank you for coming.
Please excuse us, Sheila.
This is a very difficult situation.
I've seen the headlines.
The headlines are why we need you to confirm the girl's status.
We can't afford to get this wrong.
Until we can get a concrete DNA result, we won't know for certain.
The police and I need more time to prove the link.
The heart is 50 minutes away.
Professor Folukoya, this is our multidisciplinary team.
No doubt you've met some of them before.
Professor, you believe the girl in our care is a citizen
of Georgia and that her mother left her at the hospital
and then tried to flee the UK.
Is that correct?
Ketevan Gvazava and the girl share the same rare genetic condition.
In addition, my colleague found photographic evidence
of Ms Gvazava and the girl together in Georgia.
I believe she's the girl's mother.
And therefore we can assume that she tried to leave the UK
to give her child the strongest case for being a ward of court
and therefore eligible to be on the Group One waiting list.
If there wasn't another suitable recipient,
then we would happily give this heart to a nonresident
Group Two individual.
But there is a suitable Group One recipient,
right here in our hospital.
Tommy Shaw.
Nico, I would argue the girl is technically still in Group One
and in greater need than the other recipient.
They're both equally suitable candidates.
But she is still non-UK, non-EU,
which means she should have been in Group Two.
We have a tissue match for two patients, both in urgent need!
We listed her as Group One.
Are we really going to de-list her 45 minutes before the heart arrives?
I've come from the hospital.
Your daughter is very unwell.
You need to see her.
Listen to me.
She can't breathe by herself,
her organs are failing.
Please.
Is she on the list?
The transplant list?
Yes.
She'll get a new heart?
It's complicated.
They're debating it now.
Debate?
Why? Why debate?
Because they know she's yours.
What have you done?
There are rules.
Procedures that have to be followed.
They're debating if she gets a heart?
They're debating if she deserves it?
She deserves it.
She's in pain, all the time!
She's scared!
I hold her and I can't stop her pain.
Do you know what it's like to hold your child
and not be able to stop their pain?
No.
Then tell them you're wrong!
Say I'm not her mother.
Say it!
Say I'm dead!
Ketevan!
She died in police custody.
I've referred it to the IOPC for independent investigation.
Look, I don't want you finding this out from someone else, but...
Ketevan's daughter passed away before a decision was reached.
She didn't suffer.
She wasn't alone.
But she's dead.
She might not be if I'd have kept out of it.
Then the next kid on the list would have died.
And the poor dote whose heart it was in the first place,
what if they'd lived?
What if the little girl was British?
What if her mother was rich,
could buy her way into Britain instead of
whatever she did to get into this country?
The world is rigged.
It's unfair.
You tried.
You try more than most.
You can't save them all.
Believe me.
Anything on the number plate we found, oh King of the DVLA?
Thanks, Jack. That means a lot.
The number plate is registered to a company
called Southern Valley Holdings. Uh-huh.
It's basically a shell company with a PO Box address in London.
So not much use to us?
On the contrary.
Southern Valley Holdings owns a company in Kent.
Medway Blossoms Nurseries.
They import flowers and plants from Holland.
I've checked with the ferry companies in Dover,
and Medway Blossoms booked a lorry to travel to Calais on the 12th.
Nice work.
You might think of picking up a bouquet
for Nikki while you're there.
It's her birthday next week.
I know.
Irises for faith.
Carnations, fascination.
Chrysanthemums, grief.
What's your mood today?
Inquisitive. Thanks for asking, Lucy.
Oh, bollocks.
That's not me.
There you go.
Right, Bev.
DI Torres, Kent County Police.
Jack Hodgson, forensics.
Are you the owner here? Co-owner.
Who's the other "co"?
Marcus. Marcus Tillman.
Your husband?
No.
Do you know this man?
Yeah. That's Marcus.
When did you last see him? Oof...
He sort of comes and goes.
Do you know, I'm sorry, I've got to take my medication.
Ooh.
Not many flowers in today?
Yeah, well you know, supply chain issues and all that.
Have you not read the papers?
So if that's all, I best get back to it.
FLIES BUZZ
I thought there was something familiar about this place.
Yew Nurseries closed down because of
drug smuggling back in the '90s, right?
That was all lies. It got thrown out of court.
The charges were dropped because of witness intimidation.
I've kept my nose clean.
What about Marcus?
He hasn't been arrested for anything.
You're missing a lorry, aren't you, Bev?
We found its number plate. It was stolen.
You didn't report it?
You've heard about that lorry they found down the M20, right?
The "Truck of Horrors"?
It was booked on a Calais ferry on the 12th.
Who made the booking? I don't know.
It's your business.
Marcus does the financials. I just do the blooms.
What has that git been saying?
Marcus is dead.
Who did it? Who killed him?
That's what we'd like to talk to you about.
Was it Sue?
Who's Sue? His ex.
She left him about six weeks ago, she took the kids.
Marcus went spare.
Why did she run off? Why do you think?
She couldn't stand the heat.
The heat?
How hot did Marcus get?
She was all airs and graces, that one.
She didn't understand her place.
Marcus Tillman's a known face around Dartford.
Nasty bastard.
So you think he'd gone back to his old ways,
using his former drugs route to traffic people?
He brought the gun along to keep them in line?
The place you found the number plate
was a big rave venue back in the '90s.
Marcus had a finger in that too.
He organised the music then supplied the drugs.
That shithole was like a second home to him.
Something happened there.
Yeah, something happened there - the rendezvous.
Marcus got Will Sturton to bring Maeve
and the other girls to the truck. Off they went.
With Will locked in the back?
Yeah, to keep order.
Without a phone?
Then they drove two miles to the quarry,
Marcus went to let them out, but died before he could?
There's something about this that doesn't add up.
We managed to unlock the laptop you found in Will's room.
The only thing on there was a SaveMyDocs file named Trebor.
Shared with one other user.
It has hundreds of photos, voice recordings and videos.
Most of them are taken covertly
in what looks like some sort of trap house.
Trebor? Isn't that Robert backwards?
Maeve's missing brother, Robbie.
That could make Maeve the other user with access to the file.
Could Maeve and Will have been working together to find Robbie?
What if we've got him all wrong.
I'm looking for my brother.
I can help you.
Would explain why the gang abducted Will - to shut him up.
Maybe he was working against them.
Will was on dialysis at the hospital.
He's going to need treatment again soon or his potassium levels
are going to go sky-high.
Whoa, wait. Pull that up.
Marcus Tillman.
I think we can assume he was back in the drugs game.
Probably running the whole county lines show.
Will and Maeve left their things in the car at the lay-by.
I don't think they were planning on getting on the truck.
I think they were trying to find out what happened to her brother.
Hey, where's Robbie?! I know you know where he is!
Where is he?! Shut up! Where's my brother?
So Maeve and Will interrupted the trafficking operation.
That's when it all turned to shit.
Wrong place, wrong time.
That's Natia, isn't it?
Why are there photos of Natia in there?
Scroll through.
I've seen that door.
133 was Natia's address, right?
Almost.
I told you. I don't know the woman you're looking for.
Strange, given that she had keys to your flat.
She's dead, isn't she?
My Natia.
My Natia is dead.
We were neighbours for a while.
Until we were more.
She helped me one day.
She was always helping people.
Nat was on that lorry they found, wasn't she?
Why do you say that, Maya?
I know Natia and Ketevan were friends
from the charity in Georgia.
Natia liked to help people, didn't she?
She helped bring Ketevan and her daughter into the country.
But when the press started speculating about it...
..Ketevan had to get out.
So Natia helped her again.
Who arranged the truck, Maya?
Who did she contact to get Ketevan onto the lorry?
I don't know.
Who are you scared of?
Is it this man?
Did Natia work at the flower shop?
Well, her boss was a dealer.
He made her collect packages from his houses.
She hated it.
But he could be violent.
Do you think Marcus forced Natia on to the truck?
I'm not saying anything without my lawyer present.
There was a 19-year-old boy with Natia on the truck.
He was trying to help a young woman find her brother.
And now Marcus' boys have him,
he'll die of kidney failure if we don't get to him soon.
There must be something you can tell me.
She did a drop for her boss a few days before she left.
I don't know where.
But you can find out from her phone.
I unlocked it for you.
Thanks for agreeing to do the postmortem, Nikki.
Ketevan's daughter had developed a pulmonary embolism.
She would've died very rapidly.
Her transplant this morning wouldn't have changed the outcome.
Right.
Are you all right?
I thought hard data was the only way of deciding
who got a transplant and who didn't.
But now...
..now I don't know what to think.
You presented the facts, the data, about Ketevan and her daughter.
But what if I didn't?
What if I subconsciously amplified what was, in reality, conjecture?
What if I didn't want her to get the heart so...someone else could?
You didn't make the decision.
The transplant team did.
The girl wouldn't have survived the surgery.
And ultimately, a child is alive today.
I hate to break this to you,
but you're not God.
You had no control over this.
There are two locations Natia visited
in the 72 hours before she left.
Here and here.
This one's Medway Blossoms.
This one's Montagu Road.
DA2 8KB.
Can we geo-locate the video and picture files from Will's laptop?
The trap house.
Natia was there as well.
Everything went through that place.
Maybe that's where they took Will.
Baz, get me two tactical units and an ARV.
Meet me at Montagu Road, Dartford. I'll be there in 30.
Door.
Armed police! Stay where you are!
Stay still! Stay where you are, don't move!
THEY SHOUT
On the ground!
You, hands on your head!
Do not move! Stay where you are!
SHOUTING CONTINUES
Stay down.
Where's Will?
Fuck you.
Armed police, get down!
Put your hands on your head. Down!
What? What are you going to do? Shoot a kid?
Go on, tell the wanker to shoot a kid.
Cuff him.
Hallway, clear!
Open up!
Armed police!
Get down to ground level, now!
Go, go, go, go!
Will Sturton is now the prime suspect.
He's in a silver Volvo heading west down Alban Road.
Assumed armed and dangerous.
Shit!
Will's no victim. He's top dog here.
We got Will all wrong.
He was Marcus' number two.
The Volvo was abandoned a mile away from the trap house.
We're looking for him, but...
..no luck so far.
If Will was running the drugs lines,
why was he helping Maeve search for her brother?
Maybe he was looking for Robbie himself?
If Robbie had escaped and Will was hunting him down,
maybe he thought Maeve would lead him there.
But then they ran in to Marcus Tillman,
and Marcus locked them all in the lorry.
But why?
His wife had disappeared on him, taken their kids.
He couldn't let that go.
Maybe he thought that someone in the lorry knew where they were.
Yes.
But who?
Lucy.
Lucy. Do you remember?
At the shop, the woman was wearing the wrong name tag.
It said "Lucy" on it.
Yeah. Someone made that ferry booking from Medway Blossoms, right?
Medway Blossoms...
They did a fund-raiser, aid for Armed Forces.
Jesus. That's the woman from the hospital.
The one we thought was Ketevan.
Was she behind all this?
Let's go find out.
Torres. It's PC Kerning at the hospital, ma'am.
Lucy Stevens has gone from the ward. We're searching the building now.
Gone? What do you mean, gone?
TYRES SQUEAL
That's Will Sturton's car! What?
All units, a male and female,
suspected to be in a black Jeep headed away from the hospital.
Reg number Papa, Golf, Two, Two, Victor, Charlie, Delta.
Follow quietly, no lights.
Car 496, do you have contact?
Car 496. We have visual on the black Jeep heading down Romney Street.
Romney Street? I think I know where they're heading.
Medway Blossoms, just two miles down the road.
Just past Longfield. See?
Let's hope you're right.
GLASS SHATTERS Oi!
Jack.
Hey!
Ugh!
Robbie?
You're Robbie Tooney? Maeve's brother?
It's all right. I'm police.
Come on!
In there.
Lucy.
He wanted me to take him to Robbie.
He was dragging me and shouting at me,
and then he just collapsed.
Nikki.
There's no carotid pulse.
Why didn't you tell us who you was at the hospital?
Three people have just died because of me.
And now him.
Will was dying.
He needed to be in intensive care.
You drove Marcus Tillman's wife out of the country, didn't you?
To get her away from him.
Sue had bruises all over.
Marcus would've killed her.
So you were going drive Ketevan?
Help her get out too?
Her friend Natia worked here on and off.
We got on, you know?
She knew that I'd helped Sue,
so she asked if I would do it again for Ketevan.
Drive her out of the country.
But Marcus found out?
Yeah. He waited for me in a taxi, followed me to the pick up.
Follow her.
He turned up at the meeting place.
He was raging.
It was a mess.
Where is she?!
You little bitch!
Tell me where my wife is.
I'll kill you! I'll kill the lot of you!
All of you get in!
Get in!
No, wait! No!
Why did he drive you all to the quarry?
To scare us.
To get me to tell him where Sue was.
We felt the truck stop
and he started screaming through the intercom.
I warned you, bitch!
I warned you, didn't I?
HE COUGHS AND SPLUTTERS
It sounded like he was choking.
And then we didn't hear him any more.
Tell me about Maeve.
What happened to her?
She just wanted to find her brother.
Natia had met him on one of the runs.
This scared little kid.
I found him and I brought him to the nursery.
Marcus never came round here, it was just a front for the drugs.
Did Robbie give you his St Christopher?
Yeah. A thank you, he said.
He went on and on about it, so I wore it.
Where did you get that?
Maeve saw it in the truck, and...
How the hell did you get it?
Where did you get that? Stop! Wait, wait!
THEY SHOUT
Ugh!
Later, when we were stuck in there, I told her about Robbie.
How you'd helped him.
How did Maeve die?
It was a few days in, I think. I don't know.
We lost track of the time in there.
We were so exhausted, we were getting delirious.
I woke up and I heard Will and Maeve arguing.
If you've done something to hurt Robbie,
I will kill you myself.
I think she'd realised about him.
That he wasn't there to help her, he was after Robbie himself.
No, no, no! Wait, wait!
Agh!
He killed her.
Will just... He stabbed her and he killed her.
Why do you think Will wanted to find Robbie so badly?
The halfway house, I think.
He'd been there with Will a few times.
Halfway house? You mean Legard House?
What about it?
FAINT: There's a lot of money to be made.
You need to step up.
The guy in charge at Legard House recruited them for Marcus.
Robbie told me about him.
The youth worker?
I just wanted to help.
FAINT SIRENS
INAUDIBLE
You know the story of St Christopher?
One day he saw a child trying to cross a river,
and he put him on his back and started to carry him across.
But with each step, the child grew heavier and heavier.
Yet, somehow, Christopher managed to get him to the other side.
When he asked why the boy had become so heavy,
the child replied that he was the Christ Child,
and carried with him the weight of the world.
Well, you helped carry that family through the transplant process.
Did I?
God knows, I'm no saint.
So much falls between the cracks, doesn't it?
Yep. It does.
I'm heading out. Fancy grabbing a drink?
I'm sorry, I've got three reports to finish before I get out of here.
But next time, for sure.
Hey, Gabriel's going for a drink.
Oh, I can't.
I have a lecture on selfish gene theory at SOAS.
The two of you, then?
Actually, I've got a squash game at eight.
Well, I've got plans with Cara, so...
Next time?
My place or a Satanic death cult? Huh?
Satanic death cults?
I read an article about them.
They are quite petty.
So life with Jack might be better.
Bye-bye, Velvy.
