00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:11,199
[lively conversation,
gavel bangs]
2
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,440
We need to vote - now.
3
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:15,879
And I urge you all to remember,
4
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:19,359
my father and every headmaster
before him
5
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:23,560
protected this school
and its legacy, tooth and nail.
6
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:27,439
- Bloody freezing out here.
- I know.
7
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,079
But we can't go in till that
stupid board meeting's over.
8
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,319
They were supposed to be done
by now.
9
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:36,119
Even the council agreed, before
the Planning Act was overridden.
10
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:39,040
We should not sell this land.
11
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:41,679
[murmurs]
12
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,039
OK, I really do think
we should wait.
13
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:46,919
The vote is split
down the middle,
so Vincent's vote will matter.
14
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,240
The headmaster knows
the vote is due.
15
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,759
It's not our job
to wait for him.
16
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,319
What do you think,
deputy headmaster?
17
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,080
He's not answering his phone.
18
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,119
Perhaps he's excluding himself.
19
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:01,999
I doubt that, it's his proposal.
20
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,039
Oh, for heaven's sake.
21
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,279
Let's take a 20-minute break,
then, but no longer.
22
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,640
- We've been here all evening.
- [grumbles]
23
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,040
The lights are still on.
24
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,600
[crows cawing]
25
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,240
What the hell is that?
26
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:28,840
[dripping]
27
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:31,960
No!
28
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:35,640
Hurry up and go!
29
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,040
[theme music]
30
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,079
You don't need to do anything,
all right?
31
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,279
Just be free for those two days.
I'll book it.
32
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,479
[Lola] Are you sure?
I have travel vouchers.
33
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,999
Will you just
let me surprise you?!
34
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,240
- [laughs]
- OK.
35
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,399
Gotta go, Lols. Chat later.
36
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,440
Oi! Reid!
37
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,440
[pacey, dramatic music]
38
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,279
This isn't school.
39
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,520
I'm not scared of you
or your little gang.
40
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,279
- Jesus! Bloody hell!
- Ow!
41
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,359
- What did you do that for?
- You were coming at me!
42
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,719
- I wasn't coming at you.
- You were chasing me!
43
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,079
- To ask for your help!
- Help?
44
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,040
Help with what?
45
00:02:45,640 --> 00:02:47,400
People think I'm a murderer.
46
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,440
I need you to clear my name.
47
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:52,720
Ow!
48
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:57,479
[sighs] Really, Fergus? Is this
a new approach to clients?
49
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,279
He's not a client.
50
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,639
He's probably just in trouble
with a drug dealer or something.
51
00:03:02,640 --> 00:03:05,799
- You heard of St Bart's?
- Yeah, I've heard of it.
52
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,159
It's a boys' boarding school,
very exclusive.
53
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:10,959
Yeah, an old friend of mine,
um...
54
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,879
Kevin Monroe
was the principal there.
55
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,519
Well, he passed ten years ago
56
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,599
and I think he was replaced
by Vincent something?
57
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:17,960
Quinn.
58
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,079
Last week, he was thrown out
of the top floor.
59
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,199
- Oh, so you pushed him?
- No, I didn't.
60
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,599
We'd a bit of beef.
He kept trying to expel me.
61
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,479
Ooh, what do you mean expel you?
You're not in that school.
62
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:32,880
I am. Now.
63
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,439
- I got a scholarship.
- Very impressive.
64
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,239
There's no way you got in.
You're a bullying little shit.
65
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,999
Well, from where I'm standing,
you're the one that clocked him.
66
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,159
He used to call me Weedy Reidy.
67
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,159
Really? That's funny.
No, I mean... it's terrible.
68
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,399
Really, it's terrible.
It's terrible.
69
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,439
Can you help me?
70
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,840
Why do people think
that you killed him?
71
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,479
I did some stupid shit,
all right?
72
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,479
Just messing, like, but...
73
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,279
I kept getting into trouble
with Mr Quinn.
74
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:05,759
Mm-hm.
75
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,840
So, when he died,
the police went straight for me.
76
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,079
I was in me form room
when he died.
77
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,000
I didn't leave it.
I swear on me ma's life.
78
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,560
I couldn't have killed him.
79
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,040
What?
80
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,759
[Charlie] From Jordan.
"Vincent Quinn.
81
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,279
Bruising to indicate
he was pushed
82
00:04:30,280 --> 00:04:32,239
from the top floor of St Bart's.
83
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,719
They were doing some renovations
so there was scaffolding,
84
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,759
but he hit his head off
another balcony on the way down.
85
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,279
Instant death,
approximately 9:30pm.
86
00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:43,759
His spectacles were missing,
they found that odd.
87
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:45,639
He always wore them.
88
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,039
They suspect they fell from
his face during the altercation
89
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:49,919
and the killer picked them up."
90
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,359
Ah. Thanks, Jordan.
91
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,880
- Crime scene pics.
- Hm.
92
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,079
He left the school board meeting
at 9pm
93
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,639
after receiving a call
on his mobile.
94
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,999
The call came from the school's
internal phone system,
95
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,239
so they can't pin it down
to a specific phone.
96
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,480
All the boys were
in their form rooms, allegedly.
97
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,359
Well, he's unlikely to have left
an important board meeting
98
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,439
to go and inspect construction
at that hour.
99
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,639
Somebody obviously summoned him
to the top floor.
100
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:20,519
Yeah. Derek.
101
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,039
Well, that's not proven,
102
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,679
but I would be inclined
to check on him closely.
103
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,439
Kids these days, Ma,
they're a different breed,
104
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,199
and it sounds like he had cause.
105
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,600
There'll be a memorial,
I think we should all go.
106
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,519
My old friend's daughter's
still involved in this school.
107
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,840
We could ask questions without
deciding one way or the other.
108
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,359
This is a time of great sadness,
109
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,919
and while we are mourning now,
110
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:51,840
we must remember that St Bart's
is not just a school.
111
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,599
We are a community
112
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,400
- and we will support each other.
- It's Sherry Monroe,
previous headmaster's daughter.
113
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,960
I believe that's her husband.
114
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,360
We should mingle.
115
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,799
[Sherry] My father was
very fond of you.
116
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,679
[Harry] And I him.
He was a good soul.
117
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,279
It's good to see that you're
still involved with the school.
118
00:06:25,280 --> 00:06:27,439
Oh, St Bart's is our family.
119
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,679
- My two sons go here.
- [hum of conversations]
120
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,359
This school means
everything to us.
121
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,600
It's a tragedy what happened.
122
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,159
Did you like him?
Vincent, I mean.
123
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,159
Of course.
124
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,279
I heard there was a vote
taking place the night he died.
125
00:06:44,280 --> 00:06:46,600
- Is that true?
- Mm-hm.
126
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:51,079
Vincent wanted to sell off
some of the school land,
127
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,439
and he'd brought half
the teachers and board around.
128
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,119
So, it was split
down the middle?
129
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,679
Mm-hm.
130
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,960
Why did anyone
want to oppose it?
131
00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:03,359
That land had protected status.
132
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,560
Even the council
acknowledged it.
133
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,599
And it was used by the local
community, not just the school.
134
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,519
And then, suddenly,
it was overturned
135
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,319
and they decided to zone it
for houses.
136
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,479
The area would lose a resource,
the school would be flanked.
137
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,479
I mean, Vincent was like a dog
with a bone trying to sell.
138
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,999
Yeah, we're friends of
the family. It's great to see
how well-loved Vincent was.
139
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:29,280
Yeah, Quinner, he was, er...
he was all right.
140
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,200
It's not true what
they're saying, though, is it?
141
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,280
That, er...
142
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,919
[whispers]
That Derek pushed him?
143
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,919
- Who's saying that?
- Everyone.
144
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,800
What was the story
between him and, er... Quinner?
145
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,119
Well, Derek, he was always
fronting up to him.
146
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,799
And as head boy,
I tried to rein him in
147
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,159
but they had a massive
blow-up that day.
148
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:58,280
Hm.
149
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,000
I heard Derek didn't leave
his form room that night.
150
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:05,160
Did he say that?
151
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,919
- So, you're in charge now?
- Acting head.
152
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,119
Sherry tells me that your son
is a senior Guard.
153
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,679
On sabbatical at the moment.
154
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:19,999
Does he have any information
about this case?
155
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,159
It's just, the board doesn't
know what to do
156
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,119
until the Guards charge Derek.
157
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:26,959
Or not.
158
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:31,839
He could sue the school if
we expel him during all of this,
159
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,359
claim that we prejudged
the outcome.
160
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,599
We have to be very careful, what
with him being a scholarship kid
161
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,959
and the fact that he's...
162
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,639
Poor? Disadvantaged?
Marginalised?
163
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,879
Oh, that has nothing
to do with it!
164
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,159
This school has always been
about equality
165
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,599
and giving
the less well-off access.
166
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,440
Derek has been
very welcome here.
167
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,599
Even Vincent said the sale money
would go into more scholarships.
168
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,279
Well, did you agree
with his plan?
169
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:01,919
God, no!
170
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,519
It's a terrible idea.
Putting profit over history?
171
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,199
Well, if the vote
was contentious
172
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,999
and I was the police,
I would be wondering
173
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,599
who was benefitting
from Vincent,
174
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,120
the casting vote,
not being there?
175
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,840
Look, everybody knows
that it was Derek.
176
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,400
That's why we're so eager
to hear what the police think.
177
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,279
I really think we should
just suspend him, Arthur.
178
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,240
- It's not that easy, Sherry.
- Tell her what he did that day.
179
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:36,599
He messed with the handbrake
on Vincent's car.
180
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,319
It rolled into the lake.
Totalled.
181
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:43,960
Well, luckily, Vincent wasn't
in it, but he could have been.
182
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:55,399
- Hi.
- Hm?
183
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,840
- Could I speak with you?
- Of course.
184
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,079
I overheard
your conversation with Sherry,
185
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,079
and...
186
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,440
I just think
someone needs to say it.
187
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,679
Derek's not a bad kid.
Well, he's misunderstood.
188
00:10:10,680 --> 00:10:12,599
And, I mean, Vincent...
189
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,679
Vincent upset a lot of people
with that board vote.
190
00:10:15,680 --> 00:10:17,999
I don't think it's fair that
people go straight to Derek.
191
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,759
If that's what
the police are doing.
192
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,479
Unfortunately, the police always
take the most direct route.
193
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:27,599
It... It's good of you
to, er, to speak up for him.
194
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:28,680
Yeah.
195
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,239
That vote seems to have frayed
a lot of tempers.
196
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:34,319
It has.
197
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,359
And...
198
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:40,559
Sherry insisted on having the
vote when Vincent wasn't there.
199
00:10:40,560 --> 00:10:43,199
- None of this feels right to me.
- Ah.
200
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,719
And I feel so bad
for Derek's mother
201
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,560
coming here every day
with all this happening.
202
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,760
What about Derek's mum?
203
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,280
- [Fergus] Harry.
- Um... I'll leave you to it.
204
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,760
- Thank you, again.
- Yeah.
205
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,280
Everything all right?
206
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:05,760
Mm.
207
00:11:09,560 --> 00:11:11,199
That's his first lie exposed.
208
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,439
Now, he left the form room
that night.
209
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:14,919
The lads don't believe
in snitching.
210
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,039
- But they did.
- A man was murdered, Mother.
211
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:18,959
Yeah, and why do you want him
to be innocent?
212
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,759
I just want him
to have a fair shot.
213
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:22,559
Why do you want him
to be guilty?
214
00:11:22,560 --> 00:11:25,359
- Because he most likely is.
- Oh, I get it.
215
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,639
He tormented you, but you don't
know anything about his life.
216
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,079
I think Fergus has a point.
Whatever about his background,
217
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,319
the kid obviously
has anger issues.
218
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,359
Well, that doesn't
make him a murderer.
219
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,439
Look, let's not pretend
220
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,759
that you didn't grow up in
a nice little bubble, Charlie,
221
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,160
and despite our problems
with Marcello.
222
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,599
You both have had tough times
in your life,
223
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,879
but both of you
have had people who loved you.
224
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,039
And you, Fergus, you've had
people who gave you a chance.
225
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:53,880
Doesn't Derek deserve a chance?
226
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,879
No, it's not even remotely
the same thing, Harry.
227
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,800
- [Skeevie] All right, Happy?
- Don't do that. He's a bully.
228
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,639
I might have a bit of gear that
needs shifting. You interested?
229
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,000
Nope.
230
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,719
I'm out of that game now,
Stephen.
231
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:10,440
On the straight and narrow.
232
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,599
I had to hear it for meself!
233
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,119
So, Paula has you whipped.
234
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:19,839
And I've never been happier.
235
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,079
Oh.
236
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,719
[Malky] Once a toe-rag,
237
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,519
- always a toe-rag.
- [Fergus sighs] Jesus!
238
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,599
And there's you telling Paula
you are done
with the dodgy dealings.
239
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,839
Now look at you,
chatting to Skeevie.
240
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,320
I'm just having a quiet pint,
Malky.
241
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,039
Maybe go home
and have a coffee, yeah?
242
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,240
[Skeevie] I'll be off.
243
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:44,999
Let's have no trouble.
244
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,879
[door creaks open, closes]
245
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:48,680
You're messing her around.
246
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:50,640
Nope.
247
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,640
That was you for years.
248
00:12:54,680 --> 00:12:56,400
And you lost her because of it.
249
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:01,719
- Hey!
- Jesus!
250
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,040
Whoa, whoa, Malky.
Hey, here. Calm down.
251
00:13:08,560 --> 00:13:10,399
What are you doing?
252
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,759
He's scum.
253
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,240
You've always been scum!
254
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,559
He's taking your mother
for a ride.
255
00:13:20,560 --> 00:13:23,080
She can look after herself, Da.
256
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:25,719
[Charlie] Grab that.
257
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:27,479
I'll take him home.
258
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,440
- Oh, oy, oy. There we go.
- Come on.
259
00:13:35,680 --> 00:13:37,919
That was my dad, growing up.
260
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,039
And I didn't become a bully.
261
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,479
People don't change, Harry.
262
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,840
And I'm telling you,
Derek Robinson hasn't.
263
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,840
But you don't wanna hear it.
264
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,159
Hi, this is Jordan.
Leave a message.
265
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,799
- [beep]
- Jordan, I need a favour.
266
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,640
I need to know
about Derek Robinson.
267
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,880
And I want a contact
for his mum.
268
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,679
[Harry] Thank you for being
willing to talk with me.
269
00:14:08,680 --> 00:14:10,479
[woman] I'm happy to talk.
270
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,119
Sorry I have to do it here.
I've got to finish up.
271
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,119
- I have to get to work.
- I thought this was your work.
272
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,040
I have a second job.
273
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,039
You know your son, Derek,
274
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,559
came to my company
and asked for help?
275
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,360
The police will realise
he did nothing wrong.
276
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,279
Is that your experience
with the police?
277
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,840
That they always
get things right?
278
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,599
My colleague doesn't want us
to take this case.
279
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,119
Derek lied to us already
280
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,679
about leaving the form room
that night.
281
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:43,559
He didn't kill him.
282
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:45,719
I promise you that.
283
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,399
Look, my colleague also said
that Derek was trouble
in his last school.
284
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,400
Boys aren't always easy.
285
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,640
And Derek's father...
was especially difficult.
286
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,320
For me and my son.
287
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,999
- Do you have any children?
- I have a son.
288
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,839
- His father?
- Absent.
289
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:09,039
- So you know how hard it can be.
- I do.
290
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:13,119
My boy isn't perfect,
but he has a good heart
291
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,800
and he deserves this chance.
292
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:20,400
As one mother to another,
will you help him?
293
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,280
I'll do my best.
294
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,239
[Charlie] You left
your form room that night.
295
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,799
- Where did you go?
- Who ratted?
296
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:32,319
- Oh, answer the question.
- We know you're lying.
297
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,959
This is stupid.
You sound just like those cops.
298
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:36,399
I thought you'd help me.
299
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,199
- Did you kill him?
- No!
300
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:39,519
It's best you tell the truth, son.
301
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,279
You did, didn't you?
302
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,120
Charlie, Fergus, stop it!
Sit down!
303
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,000
Derek, pick up that chair!
304
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,400
Stop ruining
my bloody furniture.
305
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,040
Look at me, young man.
306
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,559
I've met your mum.
307
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,999
She's a good woman,
she works hard.
308
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,559
A woman like that
doesn't raise an idiot,
309
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,360
even if you choose
to act like one.
310
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:12,119
[sighs] Look, I've promised her
that I will help you,
311
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,279
so I'm going
to take on this case,
312
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,840
but we're going to start
with the truth.
313
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,279
What were you doing
outside your form room
314
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,000
and why didn't you tell us
in the first place?
315
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,120
You're not supposed to leave
after 8:30 on week nights.
316
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:31,679
But the school doesn't
pay great,
317
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,359
so my ma had to take
another job.
318
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,519
I sneak out and help her clean
319
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,960
so she can go off
and do offices.
320
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:42,959
If the school found out,
they'd probably sack her
321
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,599
and use that as another reason
to throw me out.
322
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:49,080
I see.
But the pranks you were playing.
323
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:54,480
Totalling the headmaster's car
seems extreme.
324
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:57,360
It's hard to explain.
325
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:00,480
Well, try.
326
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:04,559
In me old school,
327
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:08,039
I made sure people were
too afraid to pick on me.
328
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:09,400
[scoffs]
329
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,599
At Bart's,
I thought I could change,
330
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:18,319
but me accent and me uniform,
being second-hand,
331
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,120
the lads had a pop.
332
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,599
I knew I couldn't
intimidate them
333
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,839
so I thought
I'd make them like me.
334
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:26,959
By being a rebel?
335
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,199
Why pick on the headmaster?
336
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,320
You must have known
that would be trouble.
337
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,879
He didn't care the other lads
were making things hard for me.
338
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,760
Quinn only liked rich kids.
339
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:40,440
He was the real bully.
340
00:17:44,360 --> 00:17:47,479
[Charlie] He wasn't
actually with his mother
at the time of death.
341
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,919
And even if he was, your
own mother is not a solid alibi.
342
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:52,679
I'm not saying he did it!
343
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,239
I'm just saying sometimes it's
more obvious than you think.
344
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:56,839
Go with the evidence.
345
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:58,959
Fergus] We all heard him, OK?
He hated Quinn.
346
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,319
We need to look at that vote
over the land.
347
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,359
- There's something there.
- And how are we gonna do that?
348
00:18:04,360 --> 00:18:06,680
Er... I don't know.
349
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,040
Charlie, shouldn't you
be getting home to Orla?
350
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,800
Mm? Oh, yeah, er... fair point.
351
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,640
[front door closes]
352
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,559
What are you up to?
353
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,560
[bike bell rings]
354
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,439
I could lose my job,
letting you in like this.
355
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,679
Once we get in, you go.
356
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,200
If we get caught,
we won't mention you, I promise.
357
00:18:38,120 --> 00:18:39,919
Look, I told you on the phone
358
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:43,040
that we've investigated dozens
of cases and got to the truth.
359
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:47,039
I think that Vincent was
murdered because of that vote.
360
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,360
So, if you truly want
to help Derek, help us.
361
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:52,399
Yeah.
362
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,040
[lock turns]
363
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,280
Good luck.
364
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,359
[Harry] Where there's land,
there's money.
365
00:19:05,360 --> 00:19:07,479
Where there's money,
there's greed.
366
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,359
Yeah, sure,
but what are we looking for?
367
00:19:09,360 --> 00:19:14,599
I don't know. Poisoned letters?
Emails? Brown envelopes?
368
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,759
Yeah, I thought the land
was being sold
for the school's benefit.
369
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,079
Aren't they building
affordable homes on it?
370
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,399
I mean, if no one personally
benefits, if that's the case,
371
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:24,280
it's a good thing, right?
372
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,039
Unless...
373
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:28,599
Unless what?
374
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,880
Unless someone very dodgy
is involved.
375
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:34,999
Guess who personally
overturned the Planning Act
376
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,439
to rezone that land.
377
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,560
Nicholas bloody Samson.
378
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,399
A woman in a dress like that
shouldn't open her own door.
379
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,599
Give me a second
to be a gentleman, won't you?
380
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:57,000
I gave you five seconds.
Then I got impatient.
381
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,680
[chamber music playing]
382
00:20:04,360 --> 00:20:07,159
I had no idea you were
a patron of this charity.
383
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,719
Well, you know me,
I like to help the underdog.
384
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:13,200
I'm not sure I know you at all,
but I'm enjoying getting to.
385
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,919
Ooh.
386
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,280
- Great speaking with you,
Nicholas. Let's talk soon.
- Of course. Good to see you.
387
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:21,999
[chuckles] Awful man.
388
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,679
Oh. Ms Wild, isn't it?
389
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:28,959
So good to see you again,
and such a worthy cause.
390
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:33,519
It seems we're both invested
in eradicating homelessness.
391
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:37,319
There's barely a project
you haven't put your personal
seal of approval on.
392
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:41,039
Including, of course,
the protected land at St Bart's?
393
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:42,799
Sometimes,
tough decisions have to be made.
394
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,759
It's my job to make sure
that homes are built.
395
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,759
And will these homes
be affordable
396
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:49,479
or luxury developments?
397
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,119
I'm confused. Don't you want
people to be housed?
398
00:20:52,120 --> 00:20:54,599
If so, you're at the wrong
charity event.
399
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:56,840
I just want you to know
that I'm still around.
400
00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,240
So I see.
401
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,759
Did you know Vincent Quinn?
402
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,399
He was the headmaster
at St Bart's, he was murdered.
403
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,079
Strange how these things
keep happening around you.
404
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,719
What interesting things you say.
405
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:15,000
You know, I've been thinking
a lot about you recently.
406
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,879
Mr Kennedy,
I must tell the Minister
for Justice that I saw you.
407
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,800
We're due to review your tenure,
aren't we?
408
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,240
Enjoy your evening.
409
00:21:27,360 --> 00:21:30,359
So, we're not here
for the bad roast dinner.
410
00:21:30,360 --> 00:21:32,359
If he tries to interfere
with your position,
411
00:21:32,360 --> 00:21:34,159
- it'll be my fault.
- Please, Harry.
412
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,039
I know how to play the game.
413
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,920
But I get the sense
that he doesn't just play.
414
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,119
Think he had
your headmaster killed?
415
00:21:42,120 --> 00:21:44,839
Well, I think they were
on the same side, but...
416
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,599
if Vince couldn't deliver
the vote,
417
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,960
I mean Samson's capable
of having him murdered.
418
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,240
But I don't think
that's what happened.
419
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,079
- That man is Icarus!
- Flying too close to the sun.
420
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,840
Ah, and I for one can't wait
to watch him burn.
421
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:06,799
[insistent knocking]
422
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,800
Oh, keep your pants on!
423
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,000
Sherry?
424
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:18,759
[Fergus] What's going on?
425
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,119
The police have been
questioning Arthur.
426
00:22:21,120 --> 00:22:23,319
Arthur hasn't done
anything wrong,
427
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,879
but the board was about to vote
on him becoming permanent head.
428
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,199
I have to abstain
because of our relationship,
429
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,079
but with the police
interrogating him
430
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,239
and me not there
to speak for him...
431
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,079
But why
are they questioning him?
432
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:40,159
He wasn't with anyone, see?
When Vincent was pushed?
433
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,919
We'd taken the break
from the meeting
434
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,199
and Arthur wanted some air.
435
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,040
I was with the other
board members.
436
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,439
Well, this could be
a little difficult, Sherry.
437
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,599
We're working to prove
Derek's innocence.
438
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,919
But isn't the most important
thing to get to the truth?
439
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,479
I'm telling you,
Arthur did not kill Vincent.
440
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,199
He's a good man
441
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,919
and he's the best headmaster
that Bart's could have.
442
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,839
Well, for us to get
to the bottom
of what happened that night,
443
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,080
I need to be inside the school.
444
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,239
OK?
445
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:14,879
Oh.
446
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,440
You mean
inside-inside the school.
447
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,279
[Fergus groans]
448
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,039
What?
449
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,959
Some of the other teachers
are aware of why you're here,
450
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:31,199
but for the most part,
the staff and the student body
451
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,599
believe that you are just
a substitute teacher.
452
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:38,359
It's very important
that the boys' education
doesn't suffer, Ms Wild.
453
00:23:38,360 --> 00:23:41,199
It's Professor Wild,
and can I assure you,
454
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,160
these will be the best
English lessons of their lives.
455
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,440
[phone rings]
456
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:50,559
If you'll excuse me,
another worried parent.
457
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,280
Of course.
458
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:54,240
Ah.
459
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,599
I wasn't expecting this.
460
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,919
Well, the police have started
to look at Arthur
461
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:05,679
so he was willing to oblige.
462
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,360
This is the best way for me to
figure out what really happened.
463
00:24:10,120 --> 00:24:12,359
Look, I hate to say this,
464
00:24:12,360 --> 00:24:17,000
but Arthur and Sherry do seem
like the most obvious suspects.
465
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,919
They were both vehemently
against Vincent's plan
to sell the land.
466
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,439
Unfortunately, for the police,
that's still Derek.
467
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,640
He has a bit of a reputation
with them.
468
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,159
And he was a bully
in his last school.
469
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,799
He was a bully?
I didn't know that.
470
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:34,999
Well, that doesn't make him
a killer.
471
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,560
Oh, but it's still a surprise.
472
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,399
Would you... Would you like me
to show you around?
473
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,199
That would be lovely.
474
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:44,480
Yeah.
475
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,960
- [Harry] Very impressive!
- Oh, we do OK.
476
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,479
- Ooh! Percival D'Arcy.
- [self-effacing laugh]
477
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:54,799
Chess champion.
478
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:56,679
- You were a student here?
- Yes, yeah.
479
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,319
And now you teach here.
480
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,639
Yeah, well, some would call it
Stockholm Syndrome.
481
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,559
[chuckles] Nine years ago.
482
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:05,599
Vincent was your headmaster!
483
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:09,439
Yes, he's the reason that
I came back. He was a great man
484
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:13,799
and, well, I was honoured when
he accepted me for the position.
485
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:17,239
I heard that his favourites
were always the rich boys.
486
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,599
- You must come from money.
- [uncomfortable laugh]
487
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,239
Well, the first rule
of money club
488
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,320
is that we don't talk
about money club.
489
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:27,599
- [chuckles]
- Shall we?
490
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:29,040
Yes.
491
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:35,519
This year's reading list
is very male heavy.
492
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:39,959
East of Eden. Nicholas Nickleby.
Ulysses. Ugh!
493
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:41,959
So, let's shake it up, shall we?
494
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:47,679
How about some Woolf?
Or Harper Lee? Or the Brontes?
495
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:52,159
- My father calls that chick-lit.
- [students laughs]
496
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,839
The Brontes were
literary geniuses.
497
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,239
They were so far ahead
of their time
498
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,119
that their writings
are still considered feminist,
499
00:26:01,120 --> 00:26:03,679
politically
and racially astute today.
500
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,239
And all of that
501
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,919
while living a very sheltered
life in a parsonage,
502
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:10,759
never ever seeing the world!
503
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:14,000
- So, they were bored chicks.
- [laughter]
504
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,319
No one with a brain
is ever bored.
505
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,999
Their lives were very difficult.
506
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,519
Almost half the population
of their village
507
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,479
died before the age of six.
508
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,960
The sisters themselves
all died young.
509
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:33,319
Many historians now believe that
most of the village of Haworth
510
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:38,160
was drinking water that was
contaminated by the graveyard.
511
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:40,519
[students] Eugh!
512
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,439
Well, poverty and hardship
wasn't their only challenge.
513
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:47,799
The sisters had to use
male pen-names to get published.
514
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:52,320
Because, of course, the world
was dominated by stupid men.
515
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:57,799
And going by your
and your father's opinion,
516
00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,199
not much has changed.
517
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,839
- [students] Ooh!
- [laughter]
518
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:07,519
So, shall we ditch
the navel-gazing of Ulysses
519
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,959
and visit the mad woman in the
attic of Jane Eyre, shall we?
520
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:13,960
[knock on window]
521
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,239
How did the police
miss evidence?
522
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:22,879
I don't know,
523
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:26,039
but Vicky told Charlie
that they've found something
524
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,240
and they believe
it's significant.
525
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,719
They've taken some of these
blue chips as evidence.
526
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,799
It's like the killer
put his foot up, like this.
527
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,879
And used it as leverage
to push Vincent over?
528
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:40,759
Yeah.
529
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,440
Do the police know
where the blue paint came from?
530
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,360
Mm-hm.
531
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,319
Some people might feel this way
about Yeats
532
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,040
but I, for one, have always
found him fascinating.
533
00:28:07,120 --> 00:28:10,199
"An aged man
is but a paltry thing,
534
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:13,039
a tattered coat upon a stick."
535
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:16,159
But wait, perhaps this isn't
your reflection on the poetry.
536
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,360
It's a... self-portrait?
537
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:22,440
[laughter]
538
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,040
Less arse, more art.
539
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:31,640
Hm.
540
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,919
"Yeats, a man willing to examine
and eviscerate himself
541
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,639
at every turn without fear
or censorship,
542
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,800
to give of himself
these glorious words."
543
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,799
This is beautiful.
What's your name?
544
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:50,279
Peter, Miss.
545
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:52,239
Alexander, you should read
Peter's essay.
546
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,599
- You might learn something.
- I don't need to read his essay.
547
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,239
Headmaster Quinn
personally chose me
548
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,319
for the annual
essay-writing competition.
549
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,240
Did the headmaster
ever comment on your work?
550
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,839
Well, you're the one that should
be submitting your work
551
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,279
for that competition.
552
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,440
You have a way with words.
553
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:18,199
- Ssh!
- [laughter]
554
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,799
[school bell rings]
555
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,079
[Harry] I am getting
the distinct impression
556
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,880
that Vincent wasn't
the fairest of headmasters.
557
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,400
Telling me the truth won't
make me think you're guilty.
558
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,759
Vincent could be narrow-sighted.
559
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:37,239
He thought that some boys needed
more pressure than others.
560
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,119
Let me guess, the poor ones?
561
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:41,640
- Huh.
- Was he a bully?
562
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:46,039
Did he torment Derek
or the other kids?
563
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,719
Well, that's the problem.
564
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,399
If he was doing something
outright, something you could
put your finger on.
565
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,039
But he wasn't.
566
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,039
And there are many boys
and teachers
567
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,319
and parents associated
with this school
568
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:00,599
who feel that Vincent
was a brilliant head.
569
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,639
That just means
he was a clever bully, Arthur,
570
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,960
and nobody here
was willing to catch him out.
571
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,080
I guess you're right.
572
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,600
[phone buzzes]
573
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:19,599
Hello?
574
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:21,679
[distorted voice]
Back off, you stupid bitch.
575
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,239
- That cape fools nobody.
- Who is this?
576
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,919
You're not even a real teacher.
577
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,519
Keep asking questions
and see what happens to you.
578
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,519
[call ends]
579
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:33,840
[beep]
580
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,679
I'm fine, it takes more than
that to scare me.
581
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,319
[Fergus] Look, you're obviously
asking the right questions,
582
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,559
but I'm not sure about you being
in there on your own, Harry.
583
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,279
Well, what are you suggesting?
We smuggle you in as a student?
584
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,239
Hell, no!
585
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,799
I had enough of real school.
I'm barely able for lectures.
586
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,360
[unclear banter]
587
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,439
I have to call you back, Fergus.
588
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,479
If you're going to get a pair
of fake trainers, at least get
a pair that can pass muster.
589
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,319
- Just give it a rest, Tobias.
- Do what your master says,
will ya?
590
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,919
- I'm just trying
to help out, pal.
- Pal? I'm not your pal.
591
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,559
I can't stay here, mate.
What makes you think
you can speak to me like that?
592
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:15,200
- What? Speak to you like what--
- Everything OK here?
593
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:18,840
Just messing around, miss.
594
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,800
Well, try messing around
with someone else.
595
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:50,640
[floorboards creak]
596
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,040
[tense music]
597
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:07,440
Ooh!
598
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:10,999
Hello?
599
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,600
Hello!
600
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,200
Hello!
601
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,159
Really, Ma? You're doing
undercover work now?
602
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:38,319
Keep up. I've done it loads, it
works and I'm learning things.
603
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,279
Yeah, like how to get locked in.
604
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,479
You can't stay here. If you're
right and Derek didn't do this--
605
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:43,959
I'm right.
606
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:45,959
Then the real killer
is obviously onto you.
607
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,839
Oh, number one,
I am staying here. Number two,
608
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,959
take out both your phones.
609
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,440
Specifically, the photographs
of the crime scene.
610
00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:59,599
Is that from the first set
that Jordan sent?
611
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,119
Yes.
612
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,039
Fergus, I need the second set
that Jordan sent,
613
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,920
the one you showed me
with the paint on the rail.
614
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,160
- Here.
- Hm.
615
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:11,919
That paint wasn't there
616
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,239
when they first examined
the crime scene.
617
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:17,160
- Somebody put it there.
- Shit! Why?
618
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:21,840
To frame Derek Robinson.
Those were his shoes.
619
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,160
You need to let Jordan know
this is a ploy.
620
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,640
[phone beeps, ringing]
621
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:35,000
- Hup.
- [Harry] Excuse me?
622
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:44,479
I, er, I believe you're the boys
that told this gentleman
623
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:48,479
that Derek left his form room
the night that your headmaster
was murdered?
624
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:50,919
- Yeah.
- And?
625
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,439
Well, and you drew attention
626
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,719
to the fact that his trainers
were fake
627
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:57,639
and there was blue paint
coming off of them.
628
00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,359
Yeah, so what?
629
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,160
Well, it's almost like
you want him to be in trouble.
630
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,840
We shouldn't have to go
to a school with kids like that.
631
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:09,879
Do you know how much my father
pays for me to go here?
632
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,879
I think the relevant information
there is that
it's your father paying.
633
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:17,240
- Excuse me, but who are you?
- OK, Tobias, mate... chill.
634
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,799
We're sorry about that.
We're just kidding.
635
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,439
We understand
how serious all of this is.
636
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,079
I'm glad to hear that.
637
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,879
So, did the police
ask you any questions
638
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,880
about where you were
the night your headmaster died?
639
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,400
Oh, our... our parents wouldn't
allow us to be questioned.
640
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:43,240
It's crazy, that.
We liked him.
641
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,839
We could have just
pushed him off for fun,
642
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,480
and made sure Derek
took the blame.
643
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,879
[both laugh out loud]
644
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,920
But of course we'd never
do that, but if we did...
645
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,760
If we did,
our parents would make sure
we were never held to account.
646
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:08,719
I'm sure you'll find that Mummy
and Daddy can only do so much.
647
00:35:08,720 --> 00:35:11,159
Money doesn't buy you
everything.
648
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:13,999
It'll buy us futures
outside of this place.
649
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:16,959
We won't be stuck like those
paupers who end up working here.
650
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:20,959
- What paupers?
- The scholarship kids.
651
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,279
They all end up teaching here
in the end.
652
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:25,239
Nowhere else will have them.
653
00:35:25,240 --> 00:35:27,239
Which teachers?
654
00:35:27,240 --> 00:35:28,879
- Half of them.
- Mm.
655
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:30,799
- D'Arcy. Rowe.
- Yeah.
656
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,079
- Mr Loomes.
- [both snigger]
657
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:37,640
What's it they say?
"Those who can't do, teach."
658
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,760
You could say the same for those
who come here on scholarships.
659
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,240
I mean, it's true, isn't it?
660
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,719
You know,
I never thought I'd say this,
661
00:35:56,720 --> 00:35:58,799
but I really hope
you're right about Derek
662
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:01,159
and it's one of those two
who go down.
663
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,799
All right, Harry?
You still with me?
664
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,440
Oh, sorry.
I have to go to class.
665
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:10,160
I promised Arthur that I'd give
these boys an education.
666
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:12,560
I've got to go.
667
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,440
OK. Bye so?
668
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:18,679
Guess I'll make my own way out.
669
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:21,079
[Harry] "'Sit down, beggar!'
670
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,879
screamed Squeers,
almost beside himself with rage
671
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,600
and seizing Smike as he spoke.
672
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,519
'Wretch,' rejoined Nicholas, fiercely.
673
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:31,959
'Touch him at your peril!
674
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,039
I will not stand by,
and see it done.
675
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,919
My blood is up, and I have the
strength of ten such men as you.
676
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,559
Look to yourself, for Heaven
I will not spare you,
677
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:42,560
if you drive me on!'
678
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:46,880
'Stand back,' cried Squeers,
brandishing his weapon.
679
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,239
'I have a long series of insults
to avenge,'
680
00:36:50,240 --> 00:36:52,359
said Nicholas,
flushed with passion,
681
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,199
'and my indignation
is aggravated
682
00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:56,199
by the dastardly cruelties
practised
683
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,040
on helpless infancy
in this foul den.
684
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:01,439
Have a care;
685
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,879
for if you do raise
the devil within me,
686
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,640
the consequences shall fall
heavily upon your own head.'"
687
00:37:12,720 --> 00:37:15,919
Fergus, I think I know what
happened, but I need evidence.
688
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,800
And get Charlie.
We need a plan.
689
00:37:20,240 --> 00:37:22,759
[Jordan] I just wanted
to update you all
690
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:24,519
on the current state
of the case.
691
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,519
Now, as you may know,
we found what we believed to be
692
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,719
some evidence
where Mr Quinn was pushed.
693
00:37:28,720 --> 00:37:31,599
However, the Director
of Public Prosecutions
694
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:35,239
doesn't believe it's substantial
enough to issue a warrant.
695
00:37:35,240 --> 00:37:38,639
We're now considering the land
sale as the primary motive.
696
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,159
That is nonsense.
We all know who did this.
697
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:42,879
When are you going
to arrest him?
698
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:46,239
- Sherry!
- There is a strong suspect,
699
00:37:46,240 --> 00:37:47,879
but we need more evidence
700
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:50,519
and for now, we have to keep
our options open.
701
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:54,160
Mr Rowe, I wanted to reinterview
you, if that's all right.
702
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:03,359
You're meant to be helping him.
703
00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,599
It's obvious
that Derek did this.
704
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:08,440
And it's obvious
that they need proof.
705
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,040
[huffs]
706
00:38:39,240 --> 00:38:41,199
Caught in the act,
707
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:42,840
Percival.
708
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:48,319
Planting evidence
that only the killer could have.
709
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:51,159
I presume you took these
as security,
710
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:52,999
in case you needed
to frame somebody.
711
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,119
- [Percival] This is a mistake.
- The mistake's not realising
712
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,799
we searched your room earlier
and discovered these glasses,
713
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,359
owned by the victim,
but we left them in place
714
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:03,159
so that you could do exactly
what you just tried to do.
715
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:05,839
Nicholas Nickleby,
that's when I realised.
716
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,279
You were a scholarship
student here,
717
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:09,919
but you were bullied by Vincent.
718
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:11,919
You didn't come here
because of Stockholm Syndrome.
719
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,879
You came here
because you wanted revenge.
720
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,159
And you didn't know
how to go about it.
721
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:20,879
But then you saw Vincent picking
on other kids, especially Derek.
722
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:22,879
That day, Derek pulled
the prank of all pranks,
723
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,679
totalling Vincent's car,
and Vincent lost it.
724
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:29,599
And you saw the equivalent of
the cruel headmaster in Nickleby
725
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:33,759
caning Smike,
and something in you snapped.
726
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,839
I did this to help Derek
and all the others.
727
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,320
This was self-defence,
I... I swear.
728
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,319
Vincent made my life hell when
he started here as headmaster.
729
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,799
But why let Derek
take the blame?
730
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:47,519
Well, I hadn't planned to but
then when I found out he was
a bully in his last school,
731
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:48,999
he was no better
than the others.
732
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:52,999
Everybody in life
has been bullied, Percival.
733
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,199
But if you'd just lashed out
at yours,
734
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,880
this would seem understandable.
735
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:00,680
But to frame a child?
736
00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:05,159
You're the one
that's no better than Vincent.
737
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,159
What the hell would you know?
738
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:09,559
With your plummy accent
and your fancy college job!
739
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:12,079
You've no idea
what I've overcome.
740
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,040
- [sirens approaching]
- No idea!
741
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:17,079
- [handcuffs click]
- Stupid bitch!
742
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:20,440
- You should have stayed away
when I warned you--
- That'll do!
743
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:23,280
Come on.
744
00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:28,840
[owl hoots]
745
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:36,519
Me ma wanted to say
thanks as well.
746
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,280
Well, you're very welcome.
You both are.
747
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:42,039
And I wanted to say sorry for...
748
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:45,560
you know,
being a little git in school.
749
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:48,639
Don't worry about it, pal.
750
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:50,480
Plus, you were never little.
751
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,040
- [chuckles]
- I mean it.
752
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:55,959
From the bottom of my heart.
753
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,359
There's not many people
that stuck up for Derek.
754
00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:01,240
- I wish we could pay you back.
- He can.
755
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,280
Do brilliantly in your life,
Derek. I'll be watching.
756
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:07,639
Not sure if they'll let me stay.
757
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:09,280
Ah, they will.
758
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,440
Just make them see
that it's worth it, yeah?
759
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:15,200
[Arthur] Derek?
760
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:22,959
OK, I'm sorry.
You were right about him.
761
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,999
- I'm always right.
- And yet you liked Percival.
762
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:27,879
- Didn't you?
- Oh, no, not at all.
763
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,160
- I found him intolerable.
- [laughs]
764
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:36,880
- Time to rain on their parade.
- Oh, absolutely.
765
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:44,999
Told you,
it's always the scholarship ones
that cause the problems.
766
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:48,440
Not quite.
Not your problems, anyway.
767
00:41:49,240 --> 00:41:50,559
What problems?
768
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:53,239
Oh, we had a few hours
to kill earlier.
769
00:41:53,240 --> 00:41:56,039
[Harry] And we were
very productive with our time.
770
00:41:56,040 --> 00:42:00,119
We passed every one of your
essays through an AI check.
771
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:03,119
[Fergus] Turns out, you've been
cheating for a whole year.
772
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:04,759
Mm, your headmaster is furious.
773
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:08,919
He wants you to rewrite
everything before the exams.
774
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:12,000
Which are in three weeks, right?
775
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,800
Mummy and Daddy can't get you
out of this one.
776
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:22,559
[Harry] I'm proud of you,
Fergus.
777
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,519
It takes a lot of strength
to let go of old grievances.
778
00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:28,759
Yeah, well,
I still wouldn't want
to meet him in a dark alley.
779
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,319
I wouldn't want to meet anyone
in a dark alley.
780
00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:33,999
I meet some of best contacts
in dark alleys.
781
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:35,239
[Charlie laughs]
782
00:42:35,240 --> 00:42:38,959
- You OK?
- Absolutely.
783
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:40,639
I just need to make
a quick call.
784
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,599
And afterwards,
may I take you out for dinner?
785
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,439
- Oh, it's my turn.
- Mm, like I said,
786
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,039
let me be a gentleman
for a second?
787
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:52,559
OK, OK, you can treat me.
788
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,080
All right.
789
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,279
[Fergus] Well, you look
very happy.
790
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:01,799
I am.
791
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:03,600
Very much so.
792
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,400
[theme music]
