The Rapture (2026) s01e04 Episode Script

Episode 4

1
Bethany predicted Daisy's death.
Her socials have been manipulated.
You are starting to sound crazier
than any of us, Wheels.
I found this photo
of your dad and Daisy together.
Well, I knew OF her. She was with
The Faith Way for a while, I think.
It was a long time ago.
What if it's not the words
on the pages, but the numbers?
It's a phone number.
My name is Bethany Krall.
-My mum was
-I know who she was.
Two women were murdered!
And this is what you and this
Dick guy have been doing together?
I couldn't draw it
..because it was about her.
-What's going on? -We'll explain.
-No, stop the car! Let me out!
Can you tell me
where the hell we're going?
There's someone
who needs to talk to you.
DOOR CLOSES
Your call has been forwarded to
an automatic voice message system.
BEEP
Gabs, hi, it's Frasier.
I'm sorry about tonight.
Please, let's just talk about it.
Call me back.
FRONT DOOR CLOSES
Gabrielle Fox?
I'm Anika Drake.
Sorry about all the, er
cloak-and-dagger stuff.
Our location, it's very sensitive.
Oh, yeah, right.
That completely justifies
kidnapping a woman in a wheelchair.
I mean, I'd rather have met you
in a nice little bar somewhere,
-but that's kind of tricky right now.
-Oh, and whose fault's that?
Snatching people,
attacking security guards
I have never sanctioned violence -
ever.
We are being framed.
Labelled as terrorists
just for speaking out.
That substation attack
was part of a systematic campaign
-to turn everyone against us.
-Oh, a campaign by who?
I mean, right now we're fighting
16 different legal cases
across the country, trying to halt
environmentally damaging projects,
from data farms to oil fields.
Are there people who would like
to delegitimise us, Dr Fox?
Hell, yeah. Do they have power
and money? They do.
Do you want a drink?
Something to eat?
What am I doing here?!
SHE SIGHS
Bethany Krall called us.
She's in a psychiatric hospital.
Why would she be contacting you?
And where would she even
get your number?
Her mum left it for her.
I'll take that drink.
A few days before she died,
Carys Krall contacted me.
She made some
..hm, pretty out-there claims.
What sort of claims?
Said her daughter was a prophet
who had seen the Rapture coming.
Only, apparently God wasn't going
to save anyone.
No, er that was down to us.
I offered a meeting,
but she didn't show up.
Sounded like Bethany
was severely mentally ill.
When we heard about
what had happened, it was tragic,
but not entirely surprising.
Well, the thing is
..I have evidence
that suggests Bethany's innocent.
It's hard to explain, but she draws
these things, and then they happen.
She says the planet
sends messages to her.
-Sounds insane, I know.
-Sure does.
But she really does
seem to see the future.
It wasn't just you.
Carys tried to talk to a journalist
just before she died.
I think she knew something
that got her killed.
Something involving her husband.
That is plausible.
She wanted help.
Take my number.
Stay in touch.
Never call me
on anything that can be traced.
Sorry about earlier.
We have to be careful
who we can trust.
Nothing's what it seems any more.
Derealisation.
That's what psychologists call it,
when reality doesn't feel reliable.
INSECTS BUZZ
Anika could be lying.
We don't know anything for certain.
I know my dad is hiding something.
He did it, he must have.
-We don't have any evidence.
-We have this.
-Leonard has an alibi.
-He's lying!
They're all lying!
You need to see more.
I know you're scared,
but you might see something
that would help us get to the truth.
Please?
SHE SIGHS
Fine.
RUSTLING
SCRIBBLING
SHE BREATHES RAGGEDLY
Any idea who that woman
in the wheelchair was last night?
She seemed very interested
in Leonard Krall.
Yeah, well, isn't everybody
these days?
"Choose hope" and all that.
So how close are we
to a decision on Rostyre?
The Secretary of State
has signed off.
We're just waiting
on the green light from Number Ten.
-Here you go.
-Ah, great, thanks. Take the top off, please.
Thanks. So, do you need me
to put in a call in to the PM?
Get this thing moving?
I have it under control, thank you.
Mm. And the Climate Front?
Let's take things
one step at a time, shall we, Max?
It's not an all-you-can-eat buffet.
Caroline,
this country is on its knees.
Now, unless your lot get it back
on its feet again, you're out.
I can deliver you
the economic growth that you need,
but not with Anika Drake, not
with the Climate Front in the way.
So we need to remove the friction
and then the wheels can turn.
KNOCK AT DOOR
DOOR BUZZES
You're not allowed
to come into my room.
I just had my usual meeting with Ed,
and thought I'd come and say hi.
Rules are rules -
isn't that
what you're always telling us, Ed?
Sorry, Mr Blanchett,
we're fine here.
You know, I was thinking,
I could maybe get you something
for your room, if you like.
Make it feel more like home.
PAGES TURN
Couple of cushions?
Pot plant?
A mother?
What's the matter, Bethany?
You told me Mum didn't believe me.
She thought you were unwell.
We both did.
What did she think
about the Climate Front?
You know what she thought.
That their language caused distress,
-that young people needed more hope in their lives.
-Not true, not true,
-not true, not true, not true.
-Bethany, stop!
STOP! Be reasonable!
You've been making
such good progress.
Mum contacted Anika Drake.
And I can prove it.
Mm.
I don't know
what you're talking about.
Oh, but, Daddy,
you're the wisest man alive!
-Such ignorance doesn't suit you.
-OK.
I can see this isn't a good time.
I'll come back when
you're feeling more like yourself.
Running away?
Want to call Blanchett for help?
Stick a needle in me, zombify me
with some high-dose sedatives?
Help me! Help me, please!
Please, somebody help me!
Please! Please! I'm, er
He's trying to hurt me, please!
I can't Mr Blanchett
..I don't feel safe with my dad.
Please could you ask him to leave?
Yeah.
Look, I just want
whatever's best for you, Bethany.
KNOCK AT DOOR
Ed's asking to see you.
Leonard Krall is in.
And he's on the warpath.
-..but we'll see.
-Of course.
Everything OK?
Ed and I have been talking
about Bethany's ongoing care.
OK?
Leonard has shared some concerns
about how close you've been getting
with his daughter.
Well, surely that's the job?
I think it's more a question
of being overinvolved.
I'm sor I'm sorry, what?
We want to restructure her team.
So, the trust and rapport
I have built up with her
is being taken away?
You DON'T want her to open up
about her feelings?
Of course we do. I just worry
about some lines being overstepped.
What lines? When?
Bethany is highly anxious right now,
-and taking away her allies, it's just
-Look, Dr Fox, please.
Gabrielle,
you know I've always supported you.
But you need to recognise
what's best for Bethany. Look
..you mustn't see this as a defeat.
Hey!
What's the deal?
Are you one of those donors that
Ed's always chasing for extra cash?
Gabrielle, I think
you need to control your emotions.
Oh. Yeah.
I should find peace and choose hope.
Was Carys feeling hopeful
when she died?
Or was she that worried
about the future
she was ready to pick up
the phone to the Climate Front?
Don't you dare talk about my wife.
You're damaged.
It's been far too easy for Bethany
to get under your skin.
You don't know her, not really.
You don't know our family.
I will figure it out.
Because when you're
this "damaged"
..you've nothing left to lose.
RADIO NEWS: - In
the light of the attack
on a security guard
at a Midlands substation,
pressure is building
to prescribe the Climate Front
as a terrorist organisation.
PHONE CHIMES
The Home Secretary has confirmed
she want to force a parliamentary
-Delete message.
-Message deleted.
Hey. Sorry.
I'm really sorry to doorstep you.
You weren't picking up my calls
and I just
I really wanted to
..to say that I should have taken
your side at the party,
and I'm just really genuinely sorry
that I didn't.
I just panicked.
And I can't lose that job.
It's complicated.
Caroline Wren was Leonard's alibi
on the day of Carys's murder.
And, what, you just thought you'd go
up to her and see if she was lying?
BOTH CHUCKLE
Yeah, with hindsight,
not my best idea.
No.
I'm sorry if I got you in trouble.
Can I come in?
Just for a bit?
And we could talk, properly?
VEHICLE APPROACHES
Um, not tonight. I've got plans.
Ah. Plans.
Doorstep party, is it? I bring wine!
Um, er, this is this is Dick.
Er, Frasier.
You two met at the wind farm thing.
Husband Not-husband.
Journalist Not-journalist.
HE WHISTLES
Yeah, OK, I'll leave you
to your work, then.
Oh, I'll call you.
Yep.
HE SIGHS
We're just hanging out.
Ooh, "hanging out"?
He's the one that took me
to that industry thing.
He works for Trenmoor, right?
In renewables!
I embarrassed him by accosting
Caroline Wren in the ladies'.
The perils of dating a truth seeker.
-We're not dating!
-Sorry.
-"Hanging out."
-Hm.
What does this one mean?
Hmm. No idea. She shut down
when I tried to ask her about it.
Could it be her old church?
You recognise it?
Hmm.
There never used to be
a gate here before.
Bear with.
Wait
BOOT OPENS, CLATTERING
BOOT CLOSES
GABS CHUCKLES
More breaking and entering?
I've been honing my skills.
You're a bad influence.
We used to cycle down here
when we were kids.
LAUGHING: - Scared ourselves
shitless with ghost stories!
I can see why.
This place gives me the creeps.
Was it a religious thing
for Leonard, do you think? Or?
Gabs?
Yeah.
Er S-Sorry, what?
Well, is it a churchy thing, or
..maybe somewhere he used to
bring Daisy, away from prying eyes?
Mm. Do we still think
this was just an affair?
"My north star.
I'd be nothing without you"?
Whatever was going on,
Daisy meant a lot to him.
But Carys called the Climate Front,
which means this isn't personal -
it's political.
OK, so, whatever their relationship,
maybe Leonard came here?
Bethany's drawings
are all about the future.
So if this place matters,
it's not because of something
that happened here -
it's cos something WILL happen.
-We're too early.
-Last time I turned up too late, Daisy died.
Hey.
You can't keep blaming yourself
for that, right?
Guilty's my middle name.
Gabrielle Guilty Fox.
Nice ring.
Come on.
Whatever Leonard's up to,
the answer isn't here yet.
HE SIGHS
LEONARD: - The message
that these activists want to promote,
that time is running out,
encourages us to live
in a state of permanent anxiety.
Jeremiah says,
"I have plans for you."
"Plans to give you hope
and a future."
And that speaks to me.
I think all of us,
particularly the young,
deserve to feel positive
about the future.
- ECHOES:
- He did it. He must have.
You said in your last session
that you felt a lot of anger?
I'm angry about Bethany.
That they're keeping you apart.
We're not here
to talk about other patients, Sonic.
They're all Faith Way here.
I've seen Blanchett -
tongue out, ready to lick arse.
They're even hiring
from Faith Way now.
Everyone's brainwashed.
They even got Emily.
The new nurse - Siobhan -
told me that the Climate Front
are turning into terrorists.
She gave me this book.
I-I didn't expect to like it,
but actually it's good.
Have you read it?
Afternoon, Bethany.
Afternoon, Dr Fox.
Rafiq took me into the garden.
Good. Glad to hear it.
Come on, Bethany,
back to your room, please.
Do you know him?
Who is he?
A friend.
-Hm.
-At least, I thought he was.
I don't know.
-Are you close?
-It's complicated.
He can't be involved in this.
Everything Bethany draws
means something.
She's afraid, without you, that
they might be coming for her next.
She's still got you.
She's safe in here.
Or a sitting target.
PROTESTERS CHAN
You have one new message.
Gabs, it's Mel.
You missed your session again today.
Give me a call to rearrange.
OWL HOOTS
DOOR BUZZES
Who are you? Where where's Rafiq?
Oh, shifts have changed, my love.
I'm Siobhan.
Come on, I'm not a bad one.
You'll get to know that.
I'm very dangerous.
You are just another patient to me.
Don't you know what I did?
No, I do.
Come on, back to bed.
Cos my dad sent you?
No, lovely, it's cos your face
has been all over the papers
this past week.
Now, I NEED to check your room,
my love.
Just in case you've been
squirrelling away sharp objects.
Stop calling me "my love".
Come on, I'm just being friendly.
I'm not your friend.
And if I did have a weapon,
it would be for people like you.
Let's not be silly.
Threats like that
..are just going to
get you in trouble.
Rather than going out on the road
this week,
I'm staying here in Porth Hen.
I wanted to launch something
that we could all
get excited about together.
My wife, Carys, she loved to sing,
and although
she wasn't the best singer,
she'd really go for it.
Especially here.
Louder than everyone.
So, on Friday,
we're going to try and do something
that hasn't been done before.
We're going to sing as one.
All across the nation,
every Faith Way centre united.
A national day of hope.
No matter where you are,
you can join in.
Find a centre, or if you can't
make that, then join online.
Love one another.
Look after each other.
Because the most important thing
that we have is connection.
RADIO PRESENTER: - Lots
of messages coming in about this.
We've got Sarah from Penarth, who's
finally feeling positive again.
Mike from Swindon is on the line.
How are you feeling
about this Day of Hope, Mike?
Thanks for seeing me.
Do you want to go first, or?
I need to show you something.
OK. That's weird.
Yeah, that's what - I - thought.
I didn't have you down as religious?
But then I guess I-I don't actually
know you very well.
Er well, I am emphatically
not into the church.
Bethany thinks
that's where you're headed.
Do you think I'm not?
Gabs, come on. I've always been
open and honest with you.
Have you?
How's your ex-wife?
Wh What?
I saw you with her.
Wow, OK. So did you follow me,
-because of some teenager's drawing?
-No!
Gabs, that is not
what it looks like.
Well, yeah, well, what is it, then?
Oh, you know, you you like to
think of yourself
as this decent guy,
but you're not being honest with me.
Maybe not even with yourself.
-I've got to get to work.
-Gabs, why are you?
No, I'll see you later.
HE CLEARS HIS THROA
NEWS THEME TUNE PLAYS
A rare good news story today -
Leonard Krall announced
a National Day of Hope,
in which congregations
in 278 churches across Britain
will join together
to sing at the same time.
-LEONARD: - All across the nation
-Fuck that.
..every Faith Way centre, united.
Just had a call
from the Rostyre team.
Apparently the Government are about
to approve the new oil site.
-For God's sake.
-Some guff about balancing environmental concerns
with energy security.
And what's social media full of?
Leonard Krall's Day Of Hope.
So we fight back - hard.
Let's get people down
to all the Trenmoor sites,
make some headlines of our own.
DOOR BUZZES
Bethany.
Time for your meds.
SHALLOW BREATHING
Bethany?
Come on, sleepy head.
Shit.
Thanks for letting me know, Ed.
I trust she's in good hands.
I know you're doing
everything you can for her.
Is everything OK with Bethany?
Everything's fine.
Well, the numbers are really strong.
Singing's always popular.
It's just after dancing.
-Especially on TikTok.
-There's a church I need to visit.
One of ours?
Um, I'm not really sure
if we've got time for that -
-we've got a lot to do.
-Then make time.
Er, Ed said to go straight
to his office. Urgent meeting.
Why, what's happened?
It's not for me to say.
Poor Leonard.
INDISTINCT CONVERSATION
What is it?
I'm afraid that, last night,
between checks,
Bethany Krall
seriously harmed herself.
Seems like she got hold
of a razorblade from somewhere.
Her father has been notified.
Weren't you on last night, Rafiq?
My shifts got changed.
I found her this morning
when I walked in.
She says it wasn't her.
Who did she say it was?
-That agency nurse.
-Siobhan.
She said Bethany was OK
when she last looked in on her.
You know, bolshy, but that's normal.
So it must have happened after that.
-How do we know we can trust Siobhan?
-What on earth are you implying?!
Look, the CCTV cameras
are being checked.
I suggest we resume
this conversation
when we have some hard evidence.
Yeah, let's do that.
Thank you.
QUIETLY: Hey.
Can you get me in to see Bethany?
Quickly.
BIRD CAWS
DOOR BUZZES
Oh, God
She had a blade and, er
..she just came for me.
Said I should be a good girl,
or else.
She was warning me off.
And it's my word against hers,
and I'm the mental one, so
What happened last night
is just the start.
I'll go the same way
as my mum and Daisy.
No, no, that will not happen.
We're going to solve this.
Who is the man in the drawings?
Can you find him?
Yeah. Yeah, I know him.
Does he connect to my mum or my dad
and the Faith Way?
I don't know.
Er, I thought he was a good guy.
Too good to be true, Wheels?
That's what I'm trying to work out.
He's all bikes and green living,
but he also works for
..a big fossil fuel giant.
Maybe that's relevant.
You're dating, is that it?
Yeah.
And it was a big deal
to trust someone again
..after?
Alex.
My husband's name was Alex.
That looks a lot like empathy,
Bethany.
You're going to ruin
your psychopath reputation
if you're not careful.
You're the only one
to see past that.
Well, you and Rafiq.
You're going to have
to get me out of here.
Or I'm going to swing.
Leonard?
I'm sorry it's been
such a long time.
Well, you've got
a flock of your own now.
She loved this place, you know.
She grew to love it.
I remember when they first
moved out here from Butetown.
Her parents liked the peace.
But teenage Carys?
Let's just say
she was less convinced.
I can't help thinking that
..if she'd just stayed here,
if she hadn't met me
And missed travelling
around the country?
Building a movement?
She loved the adventure.
And she loved you, Leonard.
She was proud of your success.
You mustn't blame yourself
for what happened.
I told you, I'm looking out for her.
Nothing gets past me, Miss.
Siobhan, right?
Yeah.
You work for Leonard Krall -
is that it?
SIOBHAN SCOFFS
Oh, come on,
that's a bit of a stretch, my love.
I lent Emily a book.
She's so anxious,
she can hardly leave her room.
She was making progress. The Climate
Front strike made her feel better.
Oh, protests that led
to vandalism and violence?
I don't think so.
What is this,
some kind of warning to back off
because we're getting
close to the truth?
I have got no idea
what you're on about, my love.
I want to scream. I want to scream
from the top of my lungs.
What would you scream?
What would that be?
Leave Bethany alone!
It is possible she injured herself.
I trust her, Mel.
I need to keep her safe.
The protectiveness
is understandable,
but she is a patient.
We cannot take that home.
I know it's ludicrous.
I feel like
this has taken over my life.
And instead of wanting to get
back to work, head down, I'm like,
"Fuck work!" I am looking up
and out and this kid needs my help.
Gabs, when we started
working together,
you asked me to be honest with you.
I didn't want sympathy.
I needed to be challenged
to do the work.
Well, I'm going to challenge you now
by asking,
do you think you might be
in over your head with this patient?
I think I need to take a break
from these sessions.
Well, I can't stop you doing that.
But I want you to know
that I don't think it's a good idea
for you to stop therapy.
Something is happening to me,
something important,
and I need to follow it.
What do you think has changed?
Maybe I've got something
other than myself to fight for.
Shall we discuss Nina Pearce,
the ex-wife of a certain
..new friend?
Bethany drew Frasier.
OK.
So I followed him.
He was with Nina.
He's relevant and so is she.
No judgment.
Just facts.
Me? Judge?
Nina was arrested
during a climate protest last year.
It hasn't gone to trial yet,
but she's facing imprisonment.
She's a climatologist.
Supports Anika Drake.
Nina was protesting a new oil site
in Rostyre, owned by Trenmoor.
Prosecuted for damaging
Trenmoor property.
And, according to
my Westminster sources,
Trenmoor have been lobbying
to overturn net zero
and get the green light.
And guess which MP
they've held talks with.
Caroline Wren, by any chance?
So cynical
..and yet so right.
She's very pally
with one Max Leland.
-Remember him?
-MIMICS: - Mr "Going Green"?
I met him
at Caroline's industry thing.
I haven't seen anything of Rostyre
in the news.
Mm. Drowned in all the fanfare
around National Hope Day.
Could that be deliberate?
You mean, do Trenmoor bung Faith Way
money to distract people?
Hm, The Faith Way CLAIM
not to have corporate sponsors.
They say
they're a grass-roots movement
rooted in community funding.
But Pfft!
Maybe Carys found out
that wasn't true.
Is that the whistle
she was going to blow?
Well, I'd be angry if my daughter
was foreseeing climate catastrophe
and my husband was taking oil money.
Caroline Wren knows something.
Well, how do we get her
to spill her beans?
Apply a little
journalistic pressure.
You've not exactly got
much credibility left.
I can work with that.
Hey! Caroline! Hi.
Keep seeing you on the news.
I'm in a bit of a hurry, actually.
MY father was in steel too.
Nozzleman at the blast furnace.
I just wanted to say,
it means a lot to me,
what you're doing for the community.
Might try and get a job
at the new wind farm.
Good for you. We're in talks
about a new data farm too.
-Watch this space!
-Oh, they use a lot of energy, don't they?
Is that why you're planning to open
a new oil site at Rostyre
while pretending to go green
in Wales?
Oh, God, you're that hack who
splashed the dirt on Bethany Krall.
That was low.
Hmm, actually, technically,
that's actually fake news.
There's no way I'm talking to you.
How well do you know
Bethany's father, Leonard?
Did you broker a deal
between Trenmoor and The Faith Way?
Funding for favours?
"We give you our dirty oil money,
"you keep undermining
those pesky activists"?
Max Leland's a friend, isn't he?
You know, I looked you up.
Used to be a decent journalist.
Is this what you've come to -
telling barefaced lies?
Why should you lot have
the monopoly on dishonesty?
- It's a powerful tool. Maybe
- I - want to go using it.
You should actually
be ashamed of yourself.
This country is crying out
for regeneration,
and, yes, in the real world,
that means doing business
with companies like Trenmoor.
Now, the Climate Front can bang on
about the perils of profit,
but someone has to pay
the NHS bills.
I hope you think long and hard
before you start any online rumours
that just add to the shit
that's already flooding the internet
and eroding people's trust
in our democracy.
IN WELSH:
What happened
to leaving things alone?
I need to get Bethany
out of Oxsmith.
Not easy,
given she's under a Section 41.
This is bigger than an affair.
Bigger how?
Connected to climate politics
in some way.
We think Trenmoor could be
supporting The Faith Way
financially.
What if Anika testifies that Carys
made contact with the Climate Front?
Is that enough to open up an appeal?
-That's got to be worth a try.
-And how long would that take,
realistically,
if I could get the evidence?
The Criminal Cases Review Commission
would need to have a look.
The whole system's backlogged,
would take a few months.
Then the Court of Appeal.
Perhaps even a retrial.
It could be years.
This government is fully committed
to building a Great Green Britain,
but in these
increasingly uncertain times,
we also need to ensure
energy security.
Now, using oil
from our own sites will mean
we're no longer dependent
on foreign nations
for our own safety.
Trenmoor is a UK company
and, as well as providing
much-needed energy security,
Rostyre will boost economic growth.
In related news, protests organised
by the Climate Front
have once again broken out
across the nation
at various Trenmoor sites.
Today's announcement has caused
anger among climate activists,
who are campaigning
across the country,
including in Caroline Wren's
own constituency
at Trenmoor's Welsh Headquarters.
No official word has come
from Anika Drake as yet,
on her reaction
to Rostyre being approved.
PROTESTERS SHOUT, DRUMS BEA
SIREN BLARES
-Have you got a response to that?
-So, yeah
Now the police are here
There's no point
in them being here.
ANGRY SHOUTING
Get off! Fuck off! Fuck's sake!
They have a point, don't they?
Hm?
I thought the wind farm
was the start of a green new deal,
but it was only ever just a sop
to the environmentalists, wasn't it,
-while you lobbied for more oil?
-Oh, try not to be tetchy, Frasier.
I know you're having woman trouble,
but still.
OK, this has nothing to do
with my personal life.
I just signed up for
a renewables project, that's all.
And you're building a wind farm.
But it's a fig leaf.
It's a fig leaf, Max,
I'm not a total idiot.
If you don't like your job,
I'm sure somebody would.
I was
I was just told
no new oil in the UK,
and that was important to me.
To my
..principles.
You are starting to sound
like your ex-wife.
Nina. How is she, by the way?
Legal team feeling confident?
See? Hm? It HAS got something to do
with your personal life, hasn't it?
Well, come on.
Let's get on with it.
MEL: - Do you think you might be
in over your head with this patient?
- LEONARD:
- You're damaged.
It's been far too easy
for Bethany to get under your skin.
- ICK:
- Caroline Wren knows something.
RAFIQ: - They might
be coming for her next.
ANIKA: - A few days before
she died, Carys Krall contacted me.
BETHANY: - I'm going to
go, just like my mum and Daisy.
You're going to have to
get me out of here.
Or I am going to swing.
You said there were vested interests
trying to make you look bad.
There's a theory that politics
is downstream of culture.
Change the way
that people see the world,
then it's easier to change the laws.
Leonard changes the way people think
about climate, and about us,
so it makes sense
that Trenmoor would sponsor him.
But where's the evidence?
I think Bethany can help us get it.
But not from inside Oxsmith.
Do you have enough to appeal?
Legal routes are slow.
Maybe we need a non-legal route.
One you could help with.
Seriously?
I'm in deep enough shit already.
But you want to fight back, and
you said yourself about that alert,
that only noisy things cut through.
Whether you believe the drawings
or not, Bethany is loud.
It wasn't exactly the kind
of ammunition I was looking for.
Her story's been twisted
beyond belief.
You know what that feels like.
Guess a soothsayer will go viral
way faster than a scientist.
You'd be crossing a pretty big line.
Are you ready for that?
Yeah.
I think I am.
So what's the plan?
Anika Drake has organised
a safehouse.
We just need to get Bethany out.
I have a friend,
he lives in my block.
Imen. He works
for the hospital cleaning company.
And tomorrow he takes away
the hazardous waste.
SHE SCOFFS AND CHUCKLES
Hazardous waste!
Yeah, that sounds about right.
Mm.
Are you on in the morning?
Yes. I start early.
I can talk to Bethany.
Fill her in on the plan.
You don't have to do this, Rafiq.
I know it's a lot to ask,
with your visa.
You think I would miss all the fun?
Make sure you're nowhere near
when it happens.
Be seen with physical witnesses
somewhere else in the building.
Trustworthy people.
White people - got it.
Chill out.
You're here, you're visible,
your phone'll be pinging off masts.
I just want to be sure
she's all right.
She will be.
You look good today.
High-level stress suits you.
CHATTER
GABS: Let's talk about something
else. What did Caroline Wren say?
You get anything from her?
She denies everything.
She would, I suppose.
The thing is,
whatever she says about Leonard,
I'm sure she's doing business
with corporate uglies.
She backed a sale of the land
around those ruins Bethany drew
to some shadowy data company.
-Morning. -Morning!
-Morning!
-How are we today?
-Hot.
Maybe they should invest in air-con!
SHE CHUCKLES
So I wanted to ask you to see if
you could change my schedule again.
You see, you put me in
on Saturday morning,
and that is my son's football.
Fuck this game!
Hey! Shit.
NURSE!
What are you reading that
Bible-bashing
brainwash bollocks for?
The Faith Way isn't like that!
It's about hope!
- SONIC LAUGHS
- You think hope's going to save you
-from floods and fires?!
-Stop it!
SONIC CACKLES
-Sonic!
-The Rapture's coming, Emily!
It's coming soon!
OK, OK
Fuck you! Get away from me!
Leave me alone!
Get away! I said GET BACK!
Don't touch me!
Breathe! Breathe with me. Breathe!
Where did Bethany Krall get to?
Shit!
ALARM BUZZES THROUGHOU
Thank you for your time,
Mr Blanchett.
You are a very good manager
of this place.
You know, back home,
I used to manage a ward like yours.
-So I understand how difficult it is to run the place.
-Er
Can't find Krall. She's missing.
We think
we might have had an escape.
ALARM CONTINUES BUZZING INSIDE
SONIC LAUGHS
Ah OK.
If anyone catches sight of Bethany,
please call the police immediately.
Do not try to approach her.
She is extremely mentally unwell
and liable to be unpredictable
or even violent in her behaviour.
She's my daughter, I love her
..but she's dangerous.
Particularly when
feeling vulnerable.
Bethany, if you're watching this,
please turn yourself in.
You need help.
Where is she?
Hey!
I love you
and I just want you to be safe.
Where is she?
She wasn't in the agreed meeting
place. We've just found her shoes.
No No, no.
Imen passed on the message to Rafiq.
She she was delivered safely.
We've looked everywhere. No sign.
Do you think someone else
could have got to her?
Or have I been played?
