Shetland (2012) s10e06 Episode Script

- What about the knot?
- Running bowline. Maritime knot.
- What happened to the drugs?
- It was 20 years ago, Tosh.
And those drugs were destroyed!
But were they?
Or did Robert Tulloch sell them on?
Because that would explain
where all his money came from.
I'm sorry, Tosh.
I don't think this overdose
is entirely self-inflicted.
You think somebody got to him?
Eadie had been advising Jess and Ethan
on Jess's plans
to have her baby adopted.
What is she talking about?
I was scared.
Jess made a mistake.
It's her life, her baby.
I was planning on seeing the storm
out with a bottle of rum.
- [BANGING]
- Ah!
What the hell was that?
I think it's my gate.
You want me to fix it?
Come here! You're absolutely soaked!
No.
[DIALLING TONE]
- [ON PHONE]: - Ruth.
- Hey, Sandy.
We have been trying to call you.
I know, I know. Sorry, I was
Um Er
What is the problem?
Oh, it's going like a fair here.
Storm has been causing havoc all night.
How is it up your way?
Er Well, the rain seems
to have stopped,
but it's still really windy.
OK, well, just so you know, we
picked up Lewis Mitchell last night.
What?
- Wh Er Sorry, where?
- Hiding out at a croft near Bigton.
Looked like he was all set to run.
He had money, his passport.
He also had Will Louden's phone.
Er Have we interviewed him yet?
Not yet. But last night
when he was arrested,
he said his boss was the one
who tried to kill Louden.
And who's his boss?
Ed Tulloch.
Look, he might be lying, but it's
a bit of a random name to drop.
Tosh went over to the Watergaw.
Tulloch wasn't there,
and the place is all locked up.
Do you have any idea where he might be?
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACH]
Yeah.
I don't know about you, but I might
be getting a bit old for rum.
GROANS: Tell me you have painkillers.
Yeah, in the little cupboard.
You need some?
No.
You OK?
Uh-huh.
You having regrets about this?
Look
Cards on the table, I like you.
I had a really good time last night.
Lewis Mitchell's at the station.
Who OK. Who's that?
[SHE SCOFFS]
- Tried to kill Louden.
- Louden? That's your informer.
He told us everything, Ed.
Everything about what?
[MOBILE RINGS]
Just stay there.
Hey, you're not going anywhere.
Whoa!
Let's just take a breath, hey? OK?
I tried calling her back, but
I just keep getting her voicemail.
- Where was she when she called you?
- At home.
- She said she knew where he was?
- Yes. And then the line went dead.
Do we have any units near Ruth?
Alex and Larner, maybe.
Cunningsburgh Road flooded this morning.
They went out there about an hour ago.
Right, call them.
Tell them to get over to Brindister
and check on Ruth.
- I'll meet them there.
- Got it.
I need him to call me back. It's urgent.
There's a problem.
Callaghan's not taking your call?
What do you think they're going to do?
Come and save you?
Mitchell's been arrested,
he's already given you up,
and now you're holding a DI
against her will.
OK, enough!
Look, I don't know
what Lewis has been telling you.
- That he works for you.
- Yeah, well, that's not true.
So it's a lie, then?
It's complicated.
OK. Let's see if
we can work it out, then.
See, we think that Mitchell is working
for the Callaghan crime family.
In fact, until last night,
we thought it was him
that was distributing the drugs
in Shetland.
And now we find out
that it's you who's in charge.
Ed, I think your best option
right now is to, um
is to give yourself up
and tell us everything.
There's nothing to tell, OK?
- OK.
- Look,
I have an arrangement with
some people in Edinburgh,
business partners.
I do some work for them.
Does this work involve selling drugs?
Hey, that's I'm not a part of
anything like that.
- It's not my thing.
- What is your thing?
I just organise stuff, that's all.
Sometimes I pass on information,
and in return, they help me out,
you know, with the pub.
They launder money through the pub?
- I'm trying to explain what I do.
- I get it.
You're the front man, a fixer,
the respectable face,
the guy that likes
to keep his hands clean
so that you get people like Mitchell
to do your dirty work for you,
because that way, you can tell yourself
that you don't actually profit
from other people's misery,
when in actual fact,
that is exactly what you're doing.
- I'm not the bad guy here!
- Tell that to Louden, then.
TOSH: Alex, are you there yet?
- We're nearly there!
- OK. Fast as you can.
Was this because of the Guiding Light?
Ruth, just let me think.
Louden said there was a shipment
on that boat, but it was clean.
At first, I thought Louden
had just set us up,
but now I think the Callaghans knew
we were coming.
Someone had tipped them off
and that's why they used
the Burnetts.
But they still sent the boat.
Why?
Oh, shit!
[SHE SIGHS]
It was a test.
The Callaghans needed proof
that someone was talking to us.
Jesus Christ!
I asked Louden to find out
who you were, and
I just delivered him to you.
You know, I meant what I said
about you and me.
Oh
[MOBILE BUZZES]
It's not my fault. I just
Oh!
SIGHS: I can't do that. No.
Let me talk to her.
That's not
Shit!
[SHE SHUDDERS]
- Wait!
- [SIREN WAILS]
Ruth!
[SHE SCREAMS]
Someone get hold of him!
Ruth! Hey!
Don't move!
[SHE RETCHES]
Hands behind your back!
Let's go.
[SHE SIGHS]
Oh, God!
Oh
[SHE SIGHS]
Hey. Hey!
You're OK. You're all right.
You're all right, OK? You're all right!
[SHE PANTS]
- We've made her angry.
- [SHE GASPS]
What are you doing?
It's OK.
It's OK. It's just a storm.
Why don't you go back to bed?
Where are you going?
You have to stay here with us.
I can't.
WEEPILY: Who will look after you?
I'll be OK.
I'll be OK.
I love you.
Oh
OK.
[SHE SOBS]
[SHE GROANS]
Look I've been thinking.
Maybe we should put this off
until tomorrow.
- We're leaving today.
- But the storm
Let's just go.
He actually admitted to
working with the Callaghans?
Mmm.
Well, he claims it's more
of an admin role.
The way he tells it,
you'd think he was a party planner.
What about Louden? Do we think
Tulloch's capable of hurting him?
What, you're asking me?
I really don't think I'm the best
judge of Ed Tulloch's character,
given that I slept with the guy.
Sandy, what do you have?
Well, Mitchell says Tulloch was with him
the night Louden was attacked.
He says they found Louden
at the fish market,
where Tulloch injected Louden
with a syringe full of heroin.
OK, do we have any evidence to
support what Mitchell says happened?
CCTV of Mitchell's vehicle
in Gremista on the night
and a few messages from
Mitchell's phone to Tulloch,
arranging to meet at the pub.
What we need is Louden to waken up
and tell us what happened.
I'll give the hospital a call.
And then there's this.
Louden's one thing,
but can we really see
Tulloch killing his own mother?
Well, we know they didn't get on.
We're going to need more than
a personality clash.
What about his alibi?
He gives a statement of his
movements leading up to the killing.
But that was before we had
an accurate time of death.
So I'll I'll check those out,
shall I?
OK, well, given Mitchell's accusations
and what Tulloch admitted to Ruth
this morning,
you can certainly go after him
for the attack on Louden.
It's It's up to you whether or not
you think you have enough
for Eadie's murder.
So, who's going to interview him?
Ruth, given what happened
Well, obviously I can't be in the room.
So, yes
Tosh and Sandy should do it.
Thank you.
SANDY: How long have you been
working for the Callaghans?
ED: I don't work for them.
I mean, sometimes I help people
who might be associated with them.
So, once again
how long have you been working
for the Callaghans?
I don't know, ten years?
Ten years?!
Yeah, but it's not like a regular thing.
I hardly know these people.
It's like I told Ruth, I mean,
DI Calder,
I just fix things.
Things like Will Louden?
I don't know anything about him.
Lewis Mitchell says you do.
He says he took you up to Gremista
that night,
where you injected Will Louden
with heroin.
- Well, that's not true.
- Which part?
Going to Gremista
or the attempted murder of Louden?
All of it. He's lying.
This is a CCTV still
captured at 9.32 that night.
That's Mitchell's vehicle
parked a street away
from where Louden was found.
He says you were there with him.
And this is a transcript of texts
we found on Mitchell's phone.
He sent four messages to your phone
that night, arranging to meet.
Fine. I mean, we made arrangements,
but we didn't
I didn't actually meet Mitchell.
I didn't go to Gremista.
I didn't see that lad.
I didn't do anything.
Well, we'll know for sure before long.
The team looking after Louden
expect him to recover.
So if you weren't there that night
I'm sure he'll vouch for you.
We'll let you know what he said.
Wait, wait. Just wait.
I went to the fish market that night.
I went with Mitchell to see the lad.
Why did you want to see him?
Well, Mitchell said he'd been
talking to you,
said it was Louden
who tipped you off about the boat.
- The Guiding Light?
- Aye.
I thought we were just going to
scare the kid,
you know, give him a warning. But,
Mitchell, he told me to grab him.
SIGHS: It happened so fast,
I didn't even see the syringe
- until Mitchell stuck it in him.
- [RUTH SHUDDERS]
So Mitchell injected Louden?
Yeah. He said he wanted to make sure
Louden didn't speak again, ever.
Like I said, it just
The whole thing was over quick,
and there was nothing I could have done.
You could have tried to help him!
Maybe Mitchell was too quick.
Maybe there was nothing you could
have done at the time.
But afterwards, when you realised
what was happening?
What did you do, Mr Tulloch?
Did you call an ambulance?
Police?
Did you try to save Will?
Or did you just leave him there to die?
Helping the Callaghans,
I'll hold my hands up to that.
But the other night,
it was Mitchell. It was not me.
The things I do, I'm just
a glorified gofer, you know.
I don't even know how I got involved
in this in the first place.
Maybe your brother got you into it.
What are you talking about?
Maybe your brother worked for them.
Craig died 20 years ago.
On the Lintie, along with his friend
Ally Mair.
But what I'm asking is,
were they working for the Callaghans
when they were alive?
Of course they bloody weren't!
What about your dad?
Certain information
has recently come to light
which suggests that your dad
and your brother
were involved in smuggling drugs
onto the isles.
Now, you may say
you're not involved
with the Callaghans' drug business,
but it seems other members
of your family were.
My brother and my father are dead.
You don't get to talk about them!
Let's talk about your mother, then.
Did you tie this knot?
DI Calder says she saw you tie it,
last night at her house.
So what?
It's a running bowline.
This is a close-up image of a knot
that was taken at the scene
of your mother's murder.
It's the same knot.
It's the same knot, Mr Tulloch.
How do you explain that?
- [LIGHTS SWITCH] OFF
- Hmm?
Oh
[SHE SIGHS, GROANS]
This is insane, Jess.
We just need to get to Lerwick.
- And then what?
- Get on the ferry.
There's no way the ferry's going out
in this!
We're best going home and waiting
until tomorrow.
I can't! If we go back now,
they'll never let me leave.
It has to be now.
[SHE GRUNTS]
What's wrong?
[SHE GROANS]
- Oh, shit.
- Jess?
- It's fine. I'm fine.
- You're not fine.
- [SHE STRAINS]
- It's coming?
Shit!
OK, we need to phone your mum.
- No!
- Jess!
- [SHE GROANS]
- Jess! Let go!
[SHE GRUNTS, TYRES SCREECH]
[THEY GASP, THUD]
It's all right. Just a wee power cut.
Won't last for long.
Whole village is out.
Probably a power line came down.
Where's the lantern?
Tom had it last.
Go and ask him.
I heard you two yesterday.
I don't want to talk about it.
Listen, we had our disagreements,
but Tom's a good man.
Whatever's going on between you,
it can't be worth
losing a marriage over.
- I need to get Jess up.
- Jess is gone.
What?
Best just let her go.
Jess?
Jess.
- [ENGINE TURNS]
- It won't start.
- Jess!
- [JESS PANTS]
Jess, you OK? Jess?
I can't get out!
OK, just hold on. I'll
- Ethan, where are you going?!
- It's OK.
Just undo your seat belt.
[SHE PANTS, SOBS]
[SHE SCREAMS]
OK, now Now give me your hand.
- OK, and
- [SHE SCREAMS]
- Ow, my leg!
- What's wrong?
- My leg! Ethan, I can't!
- Shit!
Shit. OK.
OK, I'll call an ambulance. OK.
[SHE SHRIEKS]
[HE GROANS]
Jess, listen, I'm going to have
to go and get some help, OK?
- No, don't leave me!
- There's no signal!
We can't drive.
I need to go and find a phone.
- Ethan, no! Don't leave me!
- Jess, you can't move, OK?
The baby needs help, and
The closest farm, right, I'll go
there and I'll bring some help.
- I don't want to be here alone!
- I'll be as fast as I can, OK?
Hey, I love you. I won't be long.
Sandy says half of Shetland's
lost power.
God knows how long it'll take them
to get that back.
Want to fill me in on that stuff
about the brother in there?
- I went to see Billy last night.
- Right.
A few days after the Lunniswick storm,
the Lintie washed up on the beach.
Billy was told to search the wreck.
He found heroin on board.
Sorry
What?!
What
What happened to it?
He let Robert get rid of it.
He says he was trying to protect
the families from any more grief.
Er
WHISPERS: He covered up a crime?
Ruth, I have been through this with him.
He knows how bad it is.
He took money from Robert Tulloch?
Yeah, he says it wasn't connected,
or at least he didn't think it was
at the time.
What are you going to do?
About Billy?
I don't know.
Right now, I'm just focusing on Eadie.
OK, I don't know if it was Mitchell
or Tulloch
who tried to kill Louden.
I'm not buying Tulloch's "Babe in
the woods" act, that's for sure.
But let's say for now
he didn't kill Eadie.
Where does that put us?
Erm
Back where we started - trying
to find a motive for all of this.
Maybe it WAS because of Robert.
Clearly, he was corrupt,
and now it looks as if he was roping
his sons in too.
Well, so do we think
that Eadie was involved?
Yeah, I think it's likely she knew
what Robert and the boys were up to.
Which makes her complicit.
So maybe someone punished her for that.
Or maybe she was punished
for Robert's sins.
But if we are looking for someone
with a grudge
against Robert Tulloch,
we've got our work cut out.
He was a cop for 30-odd years.
Who knows how many enemies he made
in that time?
Or we could ask Billy.
Or I could go and ask Billy.
Made you a coffee.
The electricity's still out,
but thankfully, the gas is on.
Er Look, Colin, I
I really appreciate you
picking me up last night.
Oh, well, what are neighbours for?
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
Proper party now, eh?
- Jess is gone.
- Gone where?
I don't know.
- When did she leave?
- I don't know.
I tried calling her, I tried Ethan.
The weather, we can't just
let her go, Tom.
It's OK. It's all right. We'll find her.
- I hope she's OK.
- Come on.
- Sorry.
- Yeah.
Thanks.
No matter where we turn, we still
keep coming back to Robert Tulloch.
Maybe Eadie was killed
because of something that Robert did
or someone he crossed.
Billy, can you think of anything?
The man died a decade ago.
But his sins live on.
- Tosh told you?
- She gave me the gist of it, yes.
[HE SIGHS]
Och, look, Billy
I'm not here to judge you.
I'm sure you had your reasons
for doing what you did.
You don't need to prove to me
that you're a good cop.
God knows I've met enough bad ones
in my career.
But if Eadie was killed because of
something that Robert did,
you must know what that was.
I can't help you!
Ruth, for years, I looked up to
that man.
He was a friend, a mentor.
By the time I realised he maybe
wasn't the person I thought he was,
it was too late. He'd retired
..and I didn't have the stomach
to go looking for proof against him.
Do you think Tosh was right about him?
I usually find Tosh is right about
most things, don't you?
Aye. Try not to hold it
against her, though.
- How is she?
- Tosh?
Eh She's OK.
She's processing.
She still hasn't decided whether
she's going to, you know,
take this any further.
I don't care about that.
I care about her.
I let her down, Ruth.
Whoever did that to Eadie,
it wasn't a stranger.
It was personal.
Come on!
- I still can't get through.
- We're going to find her, don't worry.
- This is my fault.
- Why is it your fault?
She's 17, she's due any day,
and she'd rather be out here in this
than with me.
I don't know what it is
that she's trying to prove,
but when the time comes, she is
going to want you there with her.
If you want to blame someone, blame me.
You're the one that's kept us together.
- I'm sorry I threw you out.
- You had every right to.
Tom!
- Where is she?
- Past the fork!
Get in!
All right?
Still no power?
- Sandy says they're working on it.
- [RUTH SIGHS]
So
Billy says he can't think
of anyone with a big enough grudge
against Robert Tulloch.
But he's worried about you.
Thinks you're angry with him.
I'm not.
Well, he might need to hear that
from you.
What are you doing?
Going over all of Robert Tulloch's
cases was going to take too long,
so I'm looking back over the notes
from the crime scene.
Something you said on the day
really stuck with me.
You said someone put thought into this.
Yeah, Billy reckons it's personal.
OK, so all of this was by design, right,
the location, her positioning, the rope?
There's got to be a reason
why she was killed in this way.
[LIGHTS FLICKER]
- Oh!
- Ah, Hallelujah!
Thank Christ for that!
Ed Tulloch wants to see you, Ruth.
Does he?
And why is that?
I think we should hear
what he has to say,
if you can.
- OK.
- Interview Room 1.
[SHE SIGHS]
Right.
[SHE CLEARS HER THROAT]
I'm sorry, for what it's worth.
It's not worth much.
You have to believe me,
all of this, things just
Oh, Jesus, give it up!
You know who you are.
You know what you did.
At least have the decency to own it.
Right. What is it you want?
Was she lying about Craig?
What makes you think that?
Because he was my brother
and he was a good man.
- He wasn't like
- Oh, he wasn't like you?
OK. You're right.
I know what I am,
and I know what my dad was,
or at least I found out.
But Craig was different.
What do you mean, you found out?
Three months after my dad died,
some guy turns up at the pub,
tells me how much money Dad was making
working for some friends of his.
He wants me to do something for him,
a favour.
Ten years later and they still
got their hooks in me.
Did your mum know about this?
You honestly think he could
keep that from her?
You know, I went to her,
asked her about Dad.
She threw me out.
She was actually angry
because I found out he was bent.
The only good thing was that
Craig was already dead.
He never had to find out
what a hypocrite she was.
They found drugs on the Lintie.
- What?
- Oh, aye.
In the wreckage.
Parcels and parcels of heroin.
Your dad covered it up.
But Craig and Ally Mair,
they were bringing it back
when the storm hit.
Well, that's a lie.
I have a very reliable witness.
Fuck your witness! That's a lie.
I was with them the night before
they went out.
If Craig was planning anything,
I'd have known.
You didn't know him. He was honest.
He hated what drugs were doing
to the isles.
- He'd never get into it.
- Hold on.
You said you were in Lerwick.
- What?
- Last night
you told me you were in a hotel
in Lerwick when the storm hit.
Yeah, I was, but the night before,
I was in Lunniswick with my brother.
And you saw them go out in the boat?
I watched them set off.
I was probably the last person
to see them alive.
Got it. It's not something
that Robert did.
It's something that Eadie did.
Come here. Just have a look at this.
- [ON VIDEO]: Bet you remember that day.
- I remember it all.
How quiet it was that morning.
Sea was dead calm.
- There was no warning, then?
- No.
And the last time you saw
Craig and Ally?
I stood on the shore
and I watched them leave.
She watched the Lintie go out.
The official story is that
Craig and Ally took the Lintie out
the night before the storm.
Even Ed believes that's what happened.
But Eadie says that she stood
on the shore
and she watched them leave.
- She saw them that night, too.
- No, no.
She's remembering that morning.
The sea, the wind, she's talking
about that day.
So that means what?
They came back in
and then went out again,
back into the storm?
- Why?
- I don't know.
But I think she's telling
the truth here,
which means she'd been lying to everyone
about her son's death for years.
What everyone thinks happened
didn't.
She was staring right at it.
That's why she was placed there.
She was facing out to the bay
to where the Lintie was last seen.
Go! Go!
Jess!
- Mum!
- It's OK. It's OK.
Mum, I think it's coming!
- OK. OK.
- I'm sorry.
- It's OK.
- I'm so sorry.
Tom! Tom, we need to get her
to the hospital!
- She's in labour!
- I can't get around this way.
- Can she move?
- No, she's hurt her leg!
Roll the seat back
[JESS MOANS]
I'm sorry. I tried to get to the
farm, but there was no-one there.
Don't worry about it, mate, all right?
You did what you could.
First things first,
let's get her out of the car. Come on!
OK.
[JESS MOANS]
- You're OK.
- Get that stuff out.
You're all right, sweetheart.
That's it, that's it.
- Let's get this off.
- All right.
Put your knee here, darling.
- Wait for your dad.
- Let's go.
- Hand under there.
- Watch that leg.
That's it. Use your foot.
That's it. OK, steady, Jess.
That's it.
Let's get this leg, right?
Turn around. Watch that leg.
- OK
- Watch that leg.
- All right.
- [JESS SCREAMS] OU
You're all right. Right, let's go.
That's it. Come on.
Nearly there. Keep going.
OK, so you're saying Eadie
was killed because some boat sank?
Not just any boat - the Lintie!
The loss of the Lintie,
it defined that village.
That story is in the bones
of everyone who lives there.
Right, we need a list of everyone
who was living in the village
at that time.
Yeah, but it was 20 years ago.
Why would your killer wait so long?
Because they didn't know there was
more to the story until now.
Sandy, when did Colin Waite
upload the video of Eadie Tulloch's
interview?
A couple of days before she died.
And how many people accessed it?
Well, it can't have been many.
OK, well, call Colin Waite and get a
list of everyone who downloaded it.
Sure.
We're looking for someone with an
emotional connection to the Lintie.
And someone who accessed that video.
Yeah, and someone that can tie
this knot.
Right, the knot, the one that
you tied at my house last night,
- where did you learn it?
- I honestly can't remember.
It's just the knot that
all the kids used.
- What kids?!
- In Lunniswick.
Me, Ally, Craig.
And Isobel.
[JESS SCREAMS]
- Mama, I don't want to do it.
- You're going to be great.
NURSE: Coming through!
TOM: Go, go!
I can't believe Isobel Jameson
would be capable
- of something like this.
- Yeah, well, Ally was her brother.
She was a kid when it happened.
Trauma like that, it stays with you
for life.
Right, according to Colin Waite,
only one person accessed that video
prior to Eadie's murder.
Yeah, Isobel Jameson. We know.
- Any idea where she is?
- The hospital.
Tom had phoned Colin to say
Jess has gone into labour.
- It's a wee boy.
- Is Jess all right?
She's fine.
[DOOR OPENS]
- What are you talking about?
- The video.
The one that Colin Waite
put on his website.
Eadie Tulloch's interview.
She talked about the storm.
She saw Craig and Ally go out
on that day.
Eadie lied about what happened that day.
And you spotted the lie.
What lie?
I never watched that video.
We checked, Isobel.
The video was downloaded to your account
the day before Eadie was murdered.
And then there's the knot.
What?
The one you used to tether Eadie Tulloch
to the post in her garden.
It was Jess.
Jess downloaded the video.
He said he wanted to watch it.
Arthur went to Eadie's that day
before David Powell saw it
in the evening.
- We cleared him, Ruth!
- Well, he must have gone back.
He said he loved her.
Yeah, I'm sure he loved his son, too.
But why? What did Eadie do?
Christ! It's Lana!
Lana!
Hey, Lana. Are you OK?
I need to speak to Ally.
Lana, do you know where Arthur is?
Lana!
Lana!
Lana!
Lana!
Lana?
Lana!
Lana?
Arthur!
Arthur.
I can't find Lana.
- She's safe.
- What do you mean she's safe?
- Where is she?
- It's OK.
Our officers are taking care of her.
She's my wife. I'm the one
who takes care of her.
- We need to talk, Arthur.
- We know about the video.
Don't know what you're on about.
Eadie's testimony about the storm.
I need to be with Lana!
OK. We can bring her down here.
If that's what you want, we can do
all of this, here, in front of her.
But I think that would upset her,
don't you?
And we know that you don't like
to upset her.
I can't.
She'll be on her own.
She'll have nobody.
- She'll have family.
- She'll have Isobel.
That bloody video!
Jess told me about it.
Said Eadie was on the internet.
I asked to see it.
And there was Eadie,
talking about old times,
talking about the village,
the gala parties we used to have.
I was surprised.
Eadie wasn't the sentimental type.
But after I watched the thing
something didn't sit right with me,
something Eadie said
so I watched it again.
Then I heard.
Eadie saw the Lintie go out.
Yeah.
The official story was that Ally and
Craig went out the night before.
But Eadie saw them the next day.
They must have come back in.
So why didn't they stay in?
That's what I wanted to know.
It'd been a long time since
I walked up to Eadie's front door.
She was surprised to see me,
but she let me in.
I made some lunch.
We drank, we talked,
just like old times.
Eventually, I asked her about
the video, about what she'd said.
I expected her to say it was
a mistake, that she'd got confused.
And what DID she say?
I made a mistake.
I'd known Eadie for 50 years
..loved her for ten of them.
I knew when she was lying.
But why was she lying
about something so important?
How could she lie to me about that time?
Ally and Craig were the reason
we found each other.
Whatever the reasons for those lies,
they must have been bad.
I went back up there.
She had been drinking.
Looked like she hadn't slept.
She knew I wanted answers.
She said she saw the boys that day
saw the boat come in,
then she sent them back out.
Why?
Because of Robert.
Seems Robert was involved
with a gang, drugs.
There was a boat due in with a cargo,
but it was tangled up in the storm.
Engine was flooded.
Whoever was in charge told Robert
he had to send someone out
to collect the drugs
before the coastguard got to the boat.
But Robert was in Lerwick.
Couldn't get up here,
caught in the storm.
So, he called Eadie.
He told me to send Ally and Craig
out again into the storm.
Robert said if she didn't,
the gang said he would be exposed.
Eadie Tulloch was always proud.
Her reputation meant everything to her.
So she went down to the beach
saw the Lintie come in,
spoke to Craig,
explained what was happening.
But Craig was a good boy, a good son.
He wouldn't have needed to be persuaded.
And what about Ally?
Ally was the better sailor.
He'd not let Craig go out on his own.
God knows if they reached that boat.
They did.
The Lintie sank on the way back.
They were our friends.
We mourned with them, Eadie and Robert.
I held her in my arms as she wept.
And all that time
she had sent them back out there
to their deaths. And for what?
To protect that
That corrupt bastard!
Why didn't you report it?
What do you mean?
- Report it?
- To us, to the police!
It was nothing to do with you.
We had known each other for 50 years
..a lifetime.
It was between me and Eadie.
She knew that too.
She knew what was to come.
She knew what had to be done.
She accepted it.
There was no other way.
It had to be me.
It could only have been me.
Eadie knew that.
[BABY COOS]
Doctor said it was you
who brought me in.
What else was I going to do?
Leave you lying there?
Hospital was on my way home anyway,
you know? So no biggie.
Truth is
seeing you lying there
scared the hell out of me.
I'm glad you're OK.
I'm sorry that I put you
in that position.
Those guys, what's going to
What's going to happen with them?
Well, I think we have got enough
to secure a conviction.
That's a good thing, then, isn't it?
Yeah. It is.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
Oh, I
I called Erin's mum, asked if
you could see your daughter.
I sort of mentioned something
about you being a hero
and how you brought down
a drug cartel single-handed,
something like that.
- [HE CHUCKLES]
- Hey!
Hi.
Can we have a chat?
What's the word on Arthur Mair?
He's been charged.
We're holding him down in Grampian.
Not sure if he'll get bail
before the trial.
And Lana?
She's still at home with Isobel
and the family.
Jess has had a baby boy - Ally.
[HE CHUCKLES]
Looks like she plans to keep him.
- It'll be a tough time for them.
- Yeah.
Listen, I've had some time
to think about it.
I don't agree with what you did,
but I'm not going to
Hush.
I called Standards this morning.
I told them everything.
My rep says I have to take some leave
until the investigation's concluded.
And then what?
And then I'll have to deal with
whatever they decide should happen.
Billy, why?
Because you were right.
Doesn't matter what my intentions were.
I'm sorry I let you down, Tosh.
[RINGING TONE]
- Hey. It's me.
- [ON PHONE]: Hey.
- How was Louden?
- Good.
Well Yeah, well, he seemed good.
Listen
Donnie's taking Louise out
for the day, so I'm on my own.
Right.
Just wondered if you fancied
getting Sunday lunch somewhere.
Er Question, will there be booze?
Obviously there will be booze.
It'll have to be in an hour or so.
- Is everything OK?
- Yeah. Everything's fine
Yeah. There's just something
I need to do.
- Look, I'll see you later,
- OK?
Hello, Alice. How are you doing?
You all right?
There he is. Good to see you, John.
Good morning to you.
Welcome back.
Welcome.
Hello. It's good to see you again.
You all right?
Hiya.
Don't say a bloody word, OK?
