Daddy!
- Whoa!
- THEY CHUCKLE
You found it.
There was an element of luck.
Come meet Larry.
Are you ready for this?
Can I kill him if I don't like him?
Larry, this is my dad.
Hey, hi, Mr Mr Brannick.
For God's sake, Larry, it's Tom.
Call me Mr Brannick, I'll be looking over
my shoulder for my old man.
LARRY LAUGHS
Good to meet you.
- He's a nice lad.
- Really?
- You like him?
- I do.
Oh.
A little something.
- Can I open it now?
- Mm-hmm.
Daddy, this is yours.
Your mum and I both had one.
I know.
But you can't give me this.
I want to.
Your mum used to say
it helped her see in the dark.
Thank you.
I love it.
Happy birthday, sweetheart.

The make and model of the car
match those of Pat Keenan.
Nobody saw it being dumped.
The ferry crew were the first to notice it,
on their way to work at around 7am.
Then the call to us to say he'd been
kidnapped came in at around 7:30.
Confirming it's his vehicle will take
a little longer without the number plates.
TOM:
No bodies? Explosives?
DETECTIVE:
Divers found nothing.
TOM:
Let's listen to the phone call.
OPERATOR:
Police emergency.
MALE VOICE: I've taken Pat Keenan.
This is Major White.
PHONE CLICKS
Sir? It is his, sir.
Patrick Jarlath Keenan.
TOM:
Let's issue a missing person's report.
- And his address is flagged in the system.
- DETECTIVE: Sure.
Sir?
DETECTIVE:
Sir?
Make sure everyone has a photo of Keenan.
DETECTIVE:
Something wrong?
Bring everyone over.
Alright, everybody!
Pat Keenan, 48, married, three children.
Runs a successful haulage business.
He also has a past as
a senior member of the IRA.
His disappearance could well be political.
It could also be gang-related.
Keenan is known to have connections
in organised crime.
Could it not just be joyriders,
if the call was wee lads?
They used a paramilitary authenticating code,
which makes that unlikely.
We're looking into it.
Make no mistake
the people Keenan was associated with
in the past
the ones he's involved with now,
are an unsavoury bunch.
I shouldn't need to remind you
that the lines between gang-related
activities and political paramilitaries
are blurred at best, so tread carefully.
Whoever his associates are, we'd expect them
to be looking for him already.
No, hold tight on that.
Take his life apart.
See what you can find that
might point to this.
Phone, financial records,
personal life, work.
OK?
- Alright.
- INDISTINCT CHATTER
DETECTIVE:
Birdy, go down the shops and houses.
See if there's any CCTV of the road
into the village.
Be nice.
Is there something you're not telling me?
Yes. Carry on.

Come here.
How's Izzy?
She's third year Medicine at Queen's.
You've done a grand job.
I drove past 19 pubs on the way in.
Why'd you want to meet here?
The postcard was taped inside
the wing mirror of Pat Keenan's car.
OPERATOR:
Police emergency.
MALE VOICE: I've taken Pat Keenan.
This is Major White.
PHONE CLICKS
- Major White?
It's in the form of a Loyalist
paramilitary code. We're looking into it.
It was never proved,
but God help us if it's Goliath.
Who else has seen the postcard?
Niamh and the CSIs at the scene.
Niamh?
My DS, Niamh McGovern.
We have to look into it.
It's more complicated than that.
Why?
The fact that Pat Keenan
is your missing person.
You were on the Goliath case before.
The seniors shut you down.
Now you're one of the seniors.
We can go after it.
Tom, you know yourself, as soon as word
gets out that an ex-IRA man's gone missing
all hell could break loose.
You start adding all this,
you'll start a war.
It's in the past.
Best left there.
Not for me.
Emma's gone, Tom.
Nothing's going to bring her back.
Think of Izzy.
You've raised her in a world
without all this.
Just
find Pat Keenan.
Don't go down any other roads.
We don't know where they'll lead.
CHURCH BELL RINGS
Just his car in the water,
and no sign of him?
No, ma'am.
Nothing else?
There was a postcard taped
to the wing mirror.
No message.
Does this postcard have a picture?
TOM: Uh, the cranes at Harland and Wolff.
I've been there to check it out, but nothing.
But the fact that the number plates
are missing as well
ma'am, we're into something here,
we just don't know what it is yet.
So what do you want to do next?
Go see the wife, Claire Keenan.
Has she reported him missing?
Not yet.
I suppose even if she wanted to,
she wouldn't report it to us.
She'd go to her own people.
I agree, ma'am, but we still need to find out
what we can from her.
I know, but we need to mind
what we're walking into.
We have a side of our community
that looks at us as the enemy
and the Keenans are right
at the very heart of that.
SHEEP BLEA
TOM:
When did you last see him?
Yesterday morning.
TOM:
Are there any witnesses to that?
I'm his wife.
Mrs Keenan
Oh, sorry, d-do we need witnesses now
to married life?
- Mrs Keenan
- Or maybe it's just the Catholics that do.
Has anyone contacted you about your husband?
No.
What was his car doing in the water?
We don't know that yet.
MRS KEENAN:
Is he dead?
We can't speculate.
Well, what can you do?
Right, I am not waiting
for you lot to solve this.
You've a much better chance with us
than you do with anyone else.
Mrs Keenan, in cases such as these
it's best not to tell anyone.
People could take the law
into their own hands.
We risk a much more volatile situation.
And you could put your husband
in more danger.
Um
- Do you have a toilet?
- No, we shit in our hands.
SHE SIGHS
Outside, end of the block.
INDISTINCT CHATTER
SHE SIGHS
He went up yesterday morning
for a conference
and he sent me a text in the afternoon
to say that something had come up
and he was going to be staying in Belfast.
Did he say where?
The Europa.
Is your husband the type of man
to keep secrets?
In what way?
I mean, secrets that might be
about his past.
- Other women?
- No.
- It it could be just the smallest
- I said no.
WORKMAN:
What you doing?
Niamh.
HE WHISPERS INDISTINCTLY
I fucking knew it.
Couldn't trust you
as far as you could throw yous.
Get out. Out.
- Mrs Keenan
- Both of you.
Now!
She'd never tell if her husband
was up to something.
Pat had a hospital appointment
at noon yesterday.

NIAMH: We're making enquiries about a patient
called Patrick Keenan.
He was referred by his GP
for blurred vision.
Certainly. Take a seat.
PHONE CHIMES
INDISTINCT CHATTER
Got a message from a friend
in a local policing team.
Apparently, Keenan has a bit of
a reputation in the area.
Why?
Word is he's a bit of a ladies' man.
Sometimes he pays for it.
That's no surprise.

have a missing persons case
a Pat or Patrick Keenan?

Yes, sir.
Yeah, could I get everything on that
as soon as possible, please?
OPERATOR:
OK, sir.
Thanks.
TOM:
Well, that was a waste of time.
NIAMH: Whoever invented
patient confidentiality wasn't in the police.
"Causes of blurred vision:
astigmatism pres
presbyopia"? What's that?
Something to do with Presbyterians?
SHE CHUCKLES
"Can also be caused by dry eyes,
pregnancy, migraines."
How do we get out of this place?
Down here?

My daughter's third year Medicine.
What's her name and I'll keep an eye out?
Izzy Brannick.
She'll be the one chewing your ear off.
Here we are now.
Let me ask you something.
Why would somebody,
a middle-aged man, say
a ladies' man
why would they be suffering
from blurred vision?
It's not really my area of expertise.
I mean, I'm a trauma consultant, but
but a ladies' man?
Sure he doesn't have syphilis?
He could also be taking too much Viagra.
That affects your eyesight?
Let that be a warning to you.
Thank you.

Because of us.
It's because we went to see Mrs Keenan.
How do you know?
She's convinced herself we've
no interest in finding her husband.
She's managed to convince
the lot that did this too.
What are you doing about it?
We're pursuing the leads that we do have.
Nothing concrete yet.

I need two more over here now!
That's it. Good.
Keep on going, keep on going!
INDISTINCT CHATTER ON POLICE RADIO
OPERATOR:
Police emergency.
MALE VOICE: I've taken Pat Keenan.
This is Major White.
Major White was a code used by Loyalist
paramilitaries in the early '90s.
The last person to use it is long since dead
and the kid whose voice we can hear
was no doubt slipped a 20
to make the call.
The handset was wiped clean.
There's nothing on it that we can use.
Keenan told his wife
he was staying in a hotel in Belfast.
- TOM: And?
- He never booked it.
We have a copy of
his joint account statement
his personal account, nothing of note.
We know that he was IRA over 20 years ago
but there's been no overt activity since.
Most of his contacts from those days
have moved into "legit" businesses anyway.
Int Hub have confirmed
he's not on their radar.
Birdy, any CCTV into the village?
Nothing.
And his hospital appointment raises the
possibility that he has an illicit sex life.
That guy?
He's known to pay for it.
How much?
H-he gets it half price
with his tenth cup of coffee.
THEY LAUGH
I don't know, Birdy.
Right, you lot, you know
what you need to do.
Piss off and do it.
INDISTINCT CHATTER
Potentially it could all relate
to his personal life.
Going on what we know, it's possible.
But I think it goes much deeper than that.
NIAMH:
How does the postcard fit?
I need to know what you're not telling me.
It has everything to do with that postcard
and I want you to bring me up to speed.
It's nothing you need to worry about.
Understood.
Where are you going, DS McGovern?
To ask McCallister to take me off
this investigation.
Don't.
Just
In the early part of 1998
in the months leading up
to the peace agreement
a handful of us were made aware
of a possible assassin
who it seemed had access
to police intelligence.
He was never identified,
but the suspicion was
that it could only have been an inside man.
We called him Goliath, after the crane.
So you think he's still out there?
You think Keenan's dead?
In '98
the thing that linked Goliath's victims
was that each one was made to look
as if they'd done a runner.
Fear, debt, reputation,
they all had a credible reason to leave.
And that's the version of events
that everyone chose to accept.
How many targets?
Four.
So Goliath's a serial killer.
That makes it sound indiscriminate.
These were targeted assassinations.
Peace was on the table.
If word got out that
a member of the police was
picking off targets at will
it would destroy that, just like now.
It would risk a return to all-out war.
REPORTER: Reports are coming in
that the petrol bombing of PSNI Dunfolan
is directly linked to the disappearance
of former IRA man, Pat Keenan.
Police have faced heavy criticism
of their handling of the case.
MLA for Dunfolan, Aiden O'Neill,
had this to say earlier.
O'NEILL: Naturally I condemn the petrol
bombing of Dunfolan Police Station.
No one wants to go back to those days
of running battles in the streets.
But a member of my community is missing
and so far the police appear to have
no answers regarding his whereabouts
or a possible motive
behind his disappearance.
What am I to say to the poor man's wife,
when I believe, as she does
that the police are failing
our community once again?
BUTTONS CLICK
- OPERATOR: Sir?
- Get me the ACC District Policing Command.
TOM: These are the original
Goliath disappearances
the ones who preceded Keenan.
David Corry
Joe Harkin
and Father Simon Quinlan.
NIAMH:
A priest?
And an IRA arms dealer.
Joe Harkin was an IRA Quartermaster,
and Corry
he was from the other side.
He was a Protestant paramilitary godfather.
That's what made it all the more puzzling,
it wasn't one side or the other.
His targets were people who were a threat
to the peace process on both sides.
He kept it even-handed.
You said there were four targets.
Mm-hmm.
He also murdered my wife.
Why is your wife not in the files?
Because her disappearance is not official.
Was she a threat to the peace?
She was military intelligence.
The nature of her job.
At the time, they said that her cover
had been blown. She went to ground.
NIAMH:
But that's not what happened?
She was kidnapped.
Same as Keenan.
If we find the files of the original victims,
we can compare them to the Keenan case.
When Joe Harkin went missing
the investigation said it was because
he owed money all around the country.
There was a list of all the people
he was thought to have owed on that file.
I remember seeing it.
Keenan's name was on the list,
and maybe our potential Goliath, too.
When did you say?
Last week of February, '98.
There's nothing here.
There has to be.
Joe Harkin is the name you're looking for.
He was the first one to disappear.
I'm telling you, there's nothing,
so there's not.
TOM:
Something's going on.
Goliath was a name known only
inside the police
and now these files have upped and vanished.
There's someone
someone who doesn't want us to get to
the truth about the Goliath disappearances.
We can't hold back, ma'am.
So don't.
Find Pat Keenan.
That way, we can unlock Goliath.
Use whatever resources you need.
Pull people from other jobs if you have to.
You have my backing.
Now get this done.
Keenan's disappearance is similar
to David Corry.
He was a prominent Loyalist paramilitary
involved in numerous attacks
on the Catholic community.
Nasty piece of work.
He has a brother, Adam,
lives out on the Comber Road.
Adam never bought the official version
of what happened.
Spent years trying to disprove it
and if we're short of information,
he could be the one to fill in the blanks.
Alright, then. Let's go.
Jesus, that smells like
you're a 50-a-day man.
Aye, well, the lining's burnt to shite
but the money I paid for it,
there's no way I'm not wearing it.
Every pound's a prisoner, eh?
SHEEP BLEATS
If Pat Keenan and David Corry
were paramilitaries
was Adam a paramilitary, too?
No.
He was never one for violence.
Much happier up here.
He ran a bakery in the local village.
But he loved his brother.
He's dedicated the last 22 years
of his life trying to find him.
NIAMH:
Hmm.
Tom Brannick.
That's right, Mr Corry.
You still got a good boot on you?
I don't play anymore.
Best out-half these parts have seen.
Rugby.
Yous want a cup of tea
you should've had it before you came.
We're grand, thanks, Mr Corry.
Do you, er, do you mind if I record this?
The others that went missing
at the same time as your brother
Joe Harkin, Simon Quinlan.
- Your wi
- Aye.
We're following a new line of enquiry.
A new?
HE CHUCKLES
A new line of enquiry?
HE LAUGHS
HE COUGHS
My God. After 22 years.
You lot move with some urgency.
Mr Corry, you don't believe the verdict
that your brother ran
- just like the others.
- He ran from nothing.
It's only because of the ceasefire
that everyone swallowed that shite.
Yous lot all so drunk on the idea of peace,
yous
stopped doing your jobs.
Look what the peace has brought us.
Unanswered questions.
Where's my brother?
His wife?
What peace do you think he's known
all these years, huh?
That's enough.
We think the connection between
each of the 1998 missing persons
including your brother was credible.
But we're short some information.
HE TUTS
Alright.
NIAMH:
Jesus.
Well
Do you have a system?
Of course I've got a bloody system.
I'm not daft.
TOM: So we're looking for the last week
of February, 1998.
Anything relating to that.
Joe Harkin, particularly.
When I called for police help
your lot treated me like I was sitting
in a press with a tinfoil hat
telling them all that there were
Little green men were footering up the path.
Now, I don't have a great deal on Joe Harkin,
that much is true, but
HE GROANS
They didn't like a man like me
snooping around his neighbourhood.
TOM:
No, Mr Corry, this is April '98.
Huh?
HE SIGHS
The peace deal was struck on the 10th April.
On the 11th April
a woman reports suspicious activity
on an island in the Lough.
She says it happened the end of February
around the time that Joe Harkin
went off the map.
The bodies could be out there
on that island.
Why so long to report it?
Well, maybe she
maybe she was one of the few
who believed that the ceasefire
might actually hold.
Who did she report it to?
You lot.
What, you didn't know?
Sure, all I did was drink
where you boys were drinking.
Eary-wigged on idle talk.
Oh, I-I-I don't have the actual statement.
I never did.
Just knew of its existence, like
and I asked for it many times.

Your ID, sir?
Thank you.
That's Jackie's car.
Boss?
TOM:
You in charge now?
I am.
McCallister was doing a good job.
It's a delicate situation
which has been mishandled.
That's not her fault.
Yes, it is. She's allowed you to run amuck.
I'm looking for Pat Keenan.
- You told me to focus on him.
- Fuck up!
I know perfectly well what you're up to.
McCallister filled me in.
You're after Goliath.
It's connected to the Keenan case.
I told you to keep the peace.
Every hour that Pat Keenan is missing
is another hour of problems
for this service.
Have you seen outside?
We don't have time for flights of fancy
or going on a hunch.
It all makes sense now
why you're here.
Given my knowledge of the area
and the fact that I previously worked
TOM:
No, no, no.
You could've supported
McCallister from Belfast
given her all the assistance she needed
but you had to come down here yourself
to stop me investigating Goliath.
Don't talk shite.
I came here to make sure you find Keenan
and put a stop to the unrest.
And obviously as a senior Catholic officer
they're more likely to believe
that I'll move heaven and earth to find him.
You could start by making peace
with his wife
because I can guarantee you, all of this
is because she's taken a dislike to you.
That means she'll put the word out
against the whole operation.
Can you do that?
I came to you because I needed
an old friend's support.
And you have it, Tom.
There's no reason for you to doubt it.
DOOR SHUTS
So that's it, then? DCS Twomey's in charge?
Aye.
Come back to his old district to sit on me.
Well, I think I'll keep out of that.
What's that?
The missing statement Adam Corry
was talking about.
Constable Scott found it
in the files for April '98.
The witness was Muriel Busby
of Deacon's farm on the Banbracken Road.
She said she was out
feeding the cows on a clear night.
She saw activity on an island.
From that distance,
she says it looked like digging.
She identifies the location
as being between a bothy and a tree.
Jesus.
Let's go take a look.
I don't think we can.
The record shows that it wasn't actioned.
They put it in the back of a file
and forgot about it.
If the Pat Keenan and Goliath
cases are linked
we have to go out there.
We have to.

as an unactioned witness statement

I was leading the investigation in '98.
One of my boys took her statement.
That farmhouse over there.
Why didn't you tell me?
Och, come on, Tom.
The peace deal, of course!
And I knew you'd have torn the arse
out of the whole thing.
This has implications
for the Pat Keenan case, sir.
He could be buried here, too.

I was in the area.
Just thought I'd pop by.
Hmm.
You OK?
Aye.
Really?
Things are a bit difficult at work.
Just need a break.

It's nice to see you wear it.
Course.

- No.
SHE CHUCKLES
I held onto it for all this time because
I thought that one day
you know, your mum and me
might still be reunited.
But it's not going to happen.
We move on.
It's important to me that you have it.
