Collusion

1 I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
Got to run, I'll see you later.
Yes.
I've lost Evan.
Faith claims you didn't know that the firm was in debt, and I believe her.
Do you know something, Steve? No.
Who is she, then? Don't you dare.
Don't you try and protect him here, Marion.
Don't you dare! Not this time! It's not him, Faith.
Last week, Marion told Evan that Tom might not be his dad.
Poor Tom.
No good end to this, is there? It's Steve.
Steve Baldini.
Listen, I need to talk to you urgently.
Look, I can't speak now, OK? Come on.
Right, change of plan.
Hello, you're through to the answering machine of Tom and Marion Howells.
Please leave a message at Get out of the bath! Right, out of the bath, please.
You won't believe what she's done this time.
Just get your clothes on, darling, OK? But why? We're going on an adventure.
Now? Yes, now.
I'm the bubble monster! Good girl.
I need you dried and dressed as quick as you can, right? We're in a rush.
Stop doing that, please.
We're in a Ru We're in a rush.
Splash, splash! Stop doing that Stop it! Stop it! Come on, Rhodri.
Mummy's so sorry, darling.
So sorry! Mum, where are we going? An exciting adventure, darling.
We're going to stay in a hotel.
Sh, sh, sh.
I quite enjoyed myself in the end.
Oh, missed call from Faith.
She'd have tried again if it was urgent.
It's too late to call now.
Can you get me some water, please? Is there anything else, Marion? You know I'm always willing to listen.
It's one o'clock in the morning, Tom.
I'm going to bed.
Somewhat short of your projections.
Yeah, well, we lost a few clients after my father retired and .
.
reorientating the practice is just taking a little longer than would be ideal.
Yeah, but if you pay your salaries as usual on the 14th, you'll be over the limit.
Yeah, well, I was wondering if we could organise an extension? Temporarily? We're at 49,850.
60 should be more than enough.
It's not just me.
There's Delyth, and .
.
I wouldn't be here if I didn't believe we could save it.
This is a funny adventure.
Wait till you see the breakfast.
They do the best pancakes in the world.
I don't like this.
Sh, sh, sh, sh.
I'm tired, darling.
I'm tired.
Get some sleep now.
Sh, sh, sh, sh.
Thanks, darling.
Steven? I've got something I need to tell you.
OK.
About Evan.
Um Where are you? Outside your house.
You sound scared, are you all right? Yeah, um I'm in the Travel Inn.
On Coast Road.
Right.
Do you want me to come over? Sure.
I'll be right there.
All right.
A couple of weeks back, I was driving out of town, I saw Evan getting into a car with Erin Glynn and her two cousins.
They weren't giving him much choice in the matter.
Erin Glynn? The one he got off on a murder charge? Yeah.
What kind of car was it? Subaru, one of Erin's.
What would they want with him now? The trial was a year ago.
I don't know.
But they've got a way of roping people in.
You've got two lines of business - stolen vehicles and weed.
Erin controls all the trade in Townhill over in Swansea.
That's the That was the cause of the trouble with Paddy Reardon.
It was a turf war.
Erin's a psycho.
Dewi, her dad, is the brains.
You seem to know a lot about them, Steve.
I used to work for them.
If you could drive it, I'd nick it.
What road was this on? It was the back road to Tregaron.
Did something happen tonight? No.
Huh? Just don't feel very safe at home.
Somebody put a note through my door telling me to be quiet.
There was a bullet with it.
Did the police tell you to come here? No, no.
I haven't told anyone, Steve.
I'm frightened.
I'm frightened because I don't know what Evan has got himself into here.
I can't just throw him to the wolves, can I? He's my husband.
The Glynns aren't people you mess with.
What are they going to do to me, Steve? They going to kill me? They've got form.
Well, you need to set up a meeting, because I need to talk to them, Steve.
You don't know what you're asking.
I need to talk to them, Steven.
Mum? Hey.
Mum? Hey.
Alys, I'm just getting something from the car, OK? Please be quick.
I'll be right there, darling.
She's a good girl.
Yeah.
I've got to go.
Well, you know where I am.
Any time.
Yeah.
Hey.
Sorry, sorry.
Sorry about that.
Come on, you.
Come to bed.
"Erin Glynn cleared of gangland slaying.
" Shit, Evan Howells, what have you got yourself into? Madam Foreman, have you come to a verdict which is the verdict of you all? We have.
On the single count that Miss Erin Glynn did, on the 18th of September of this year, murder Mr Patrick Reardon, do you find the accused guilty or not guilty? Not guilty.
Now, you promised you were going to dance.
It's not really my kind of music.
Come on! Maybe in a minute.
Promise? Can't trust yourself, that's your problem.
With your own watch to match.
You did us proud, Evan.
It's my pleasure.
I know how hard you've worked, so a little something from the Glynns to say thank you.
Hey, hey, hey.
It's the least we could do.
Take it.
Come on.
Treat that wife and kids of yours to something nice.
That's very generous.
Remember, if you're ever in need .
.
there's plenty more where that came from.
Feeling good? Thank you, Evan.
It's all change from now on, you'll see.
Here.
Take this.
No, no, no.
Get yourself set up.
No, no, no.
But promise me you'll steer clear of the Glynns.
Oh, Evan.
Promise me.
They're bad news.
OK.
One day I'll pay you back with interest.
Keep in touch.
I will.
I won't let you down.
He's been gone for three days now.
Well, everyone's doing their best to find him.
Megan was sick in school today.
I'm worried about her.
You leave the worrying to me, OK? OK.
Sh, sh, sh, sh.
Get some sleep now.
Mummy's just here.
Mummy's just here.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Tom? How are you doing? Just getting all the things here.
I heard back from the traffic boys this morning.
Uh-huh.
They think Evan slipped out of town using the back roads.
They can't pick him up on any of the cameras.
It's good news, though.
More like the man was running than going to do himself harm.
Hope so.
I've also got an unofficial trace on his phone.
The moment he switches on, we'll know where he is.
OK.
Don't tell Williams, though.
I do appreciate it.
How is Marion coping? Oh, in her own inimitable way.
I'm not sure what I'd do without him, you know.
You've always been a good father, Tom.
Yup.
You going to sand all of this, then? Yep.
It was you I needed to talk to, actually about Evan and this .
.
this paternity issue.
Did you get this from Faith? I don't mean to pry, I'm sorry.
Is it true, is Tom not his father? Marion, a revelation like this, it could have a big effect on a man.
Especially if he's already What do you expect me to say? When was the last time you discussed this with Evan? Last week.
Friday.
Friday morning.
Right.
And how did he take it? We've had a phone call.
Someone saw him walking in Gelli-Hir woods a month ago during office hours.
That was weeks before I said anything.
Wasn't it where he proposed to Faith? I think it's best if we take a look.
I won't say anything to Faith, not yet.
Right.
I best be off.
Give my best to Tom.
Ow! Ow! Ow! Alys, stop.
Mummy, she's hitting me.
Hey, hey, hey.
Alys, hey! Ow! OK! OK, who wants pancakes? Who wants pancakes? Come on, who wants pancakes? Yeah? You like pancakes.
It's Gemma's party today, remember? It's fancy dress.
Oh, yeah.
Pancakes, pancakes, pancakes! All right, all right, all right.
Pancakes, then we'll go to the party.
All right? Sound good? Yes? Go, go, go, go, go! Go get changed.
Go, go, go, go, go! All right.
That looks cute.
Enjoy yourself.
Have fun, Alys.
Alys, here.
Have fun.
Oi! What's happened? What's happened to you? Don't.
No, just no.
What's happened to you, please? I had a scrap with a car, didn't I? Not in trouble again, are you? Just helping with their enquiries, like, innit.
Terry did say.
Black BMW.
Did you see the driver? It's very important! Evan's still missing.
It's really .
.
it's really important.
Black Beamer, dumpy guy, wearing a baseball cap.
Dumpy guy.
Oh, Arthur.
What are you doing now? What are you doing? I don't want your money, Faith, really.
I don't want your money.
Please go and get something to eat, something with vegetables! Shower wouldn't go amiss.
I've found something in sector one, sir.
Right.
I'm on my way.
Over and out.
Doctor Alpay's testimony.
OK.
Look what Daddy's been writing.
Brilliant news, we have an alibi.
What for? Erin Glynn, of course.
How can Erin have an alibi? She's been identified by three independent eyewitnesses.
Well, they made a mistake.
Happens all the time.
Who's given the alibi? I've just spoken to her, she's great.
A proper, kosher, professional.
She's a dentist and she wants to meet so we can take her statement.
OK, um, make the appointment.
Now, let's go.
Cerys! This is my statement.
At 4:30pm, Miss Erin Glynn was in that chair.
I extracted the first lower molar, left side.
Very rotten, very bad hygiene.
Whole procedure, 45 minutes.
Shooting was at 4:35, 20 miles away.
And you're prepared to say this under oath? No.
It's all a big, fat lie.
OK.
Well, we'll send you a draft through by e-mail.
If you could check through it carefully - this is a murder trial.
And I'd like a copy of your notes from the procedure.
Sure.
Well, that was weird.
I'll say.
It was kosher as bloody Christmas.
You were with Evan at the trial? Yeah, he was on fire.
Erin Glynn got away with murder, didn't she? Jury said not guilty.
And what about her alibi witness, was she for real? Seemed genuine enough.
Evan had his doubts.
Look, he was just dealing with the evidence, Faith, like we all do.
And afterwards? Did Evan have anything else to do with Erin Glynn? Not that I'm aware of.
Well, he was seen being bundled into a car with the Glynns a couple of weeks back.
What? That's ridiculous.
Did he tell anyone? Did he tell anyone that Erin was guilty? You know what worries me about all of this, Faith? What's that, Cerys? DI Williams, she's had it in for you for years.
Well, she was the one who tampered with the evidence.
The way she sees it, you made a false allegation in open court that stymied her opportunity for promotion.
She's lucky she kept her job.
I know, Faith.
All I'm saying is don't give her any excuses.
Don't intend to.
He does know this costs us double on a weekend? I think they may have found something.
A body? No, ma'am, a gun.
Ma'am, tossed into the undergrowth.
I don't think it's been there long, there's no sign of rust.
And there's no sign of I'll take over from now.
Find me lists of all the firearms offences reported within a 50-mile radius over the past three years.
Yes, ma'am.
Radio? I'll see you back at the station then, shall I? This is Detective Inspector Williams assuming command.
Excuse me, I'm looking for the Glynns' garage.
Thank you.
Hello? Hello? Mr Glynn? Still lost, are you? Don't want any trouble.
Just want to find Erin Glynn.
We're looking to score.
Got any Calpol? You what? Do you know her or not? Yeah.
I know Erin Glynn .
.
for a tenner.
OK.
Will you stop doing that, please? Love you! Purse.
Stop.
Stop doing that, please! Your rings.
What? No way.
No? No, no way.
You look like your mama! Phone.
I wouldn't bother, love, not unless you want to get on the Antiques Road show.
Come on, guys.
Sh, sh, sh, sh.
Meral, it's Cerys Jones.
I don't know if you've heard, but my boss, Evan, is missing.
What do you want? A couple of weeks ago, he was seen with the Glynns.
They were putting him in a car.
I was wondering if you'd had any contact with him since the trial? I was under the impression that you and the Glynns were quite friendly.
I'm a dentist.
I know their teeth.
What's that got to do with me? They haven't been in touch? Haven't threatened you in any way? Evan's got a wife and three kids.
My job depends on him.
If he doesn't turn up soon, the police will put two and two together and come looking for you.
Sorry for troubling you.
When you see Evan tell him he should keep his promises.
You tell him for me.
This is a new adventure, isn't it, guys? Ooh.
Ooh! Go on.
Nom, nom, nom, nom! Om, nom, nom, nom, nom! You know what to do, boys.
We found ammunition.
20-odd in the gun.
Looks like they were got rid of in a hurry.
Get them to the lab for prints, DNA, whatever they can find.
Um, it's Saturday.
I don't care if it's the Queen's bloody birthday.
Sort it.
Where are you? Firearms offenders.
Anyone local? Well, only Steve Baldini.
Swansea CID found shotgun cartridges in his house last year, but they never found the gun.
Planning the Post Office job? He was found not guilty, ma'am.
He was found outside Faith Howell's place the other night.
Yeah, and last night, apparently, in his pick-up.
Emma Jones phoned in this morning.
I do know he's a client of the practice, ma'am.
Yeah, I'm sure.
Look, I know you're going with this, but I do think He's been at the house twice since her husband vanished.
One mugshot of Mr Baldini, please.
Marriage on the rocks.
Husband goes missing.
Husband in debt, they're well insured.
Wife consorting with known criminal.
Gun and ammunition found in woodland, where husband recently seen walking.
And at the top of the hill.
Mynach quarry.
Hmm.
Wouldn't be the first body to turn up there.
Terry's leading a search party.
I know.
He called by this morning.
Oh? He didn't tell me.
Mammy, what is it? Last week .
.
Evan asked me something.
Asked me about something we should have discussed years ago.
Your father .
.
may not be his father.
I was very young.
You must have been married.
Only just.
It was very short-lived.
And that excuses it, does it? Who was he, Mam? He moved away.
We lost touch.
And you told Evan this? Oh, God! What about Daddy? Have you told him? Oh, Christ! Well, there's no wonder that Evan buggered off, then, is there? I don't know what to say, Mammy.
Oh, bloody hell, I can't stay here! Earth to Faith.
I thought you might like some company.
No sign? He's a good dad and all.
Tell you what, why don't we all have tea on the boat? You'll laugh.
Arthur, can you keep an eye on the children for me, please? Aye, all right.
Saran.
Saran, I just want to say sorry to you for coming to your house the other night.
It was completely out of order, completely.
No, no Please, please.
It's just a very, very difficult time at the moment.
You don't need to apologise, I'd have done exactly the same.
You know, I've been worried sick about him, too.
It just doesn't He's .
.
he's just not the sort of bloke He's a faithful man, Faith.
He adores you.
It's just the not knowing.
It's just He's been gone since Wednesday morning now.
I don't know what to say to my children any more.
I'm Yeah, yeah, I'm sure.
You here with your family? Yeah, I am, but I'm just just grabbing a moment's peace.
I've got two boys, twins.
So, do you think he's still alive? What? You're you're asking me if I think? Yeah.
No, no.
Faith, no.
God, never in a million years.
Thank you.
Hello.
Hello.
Yes, you are.
I'm sorry.
No.
Please.
Enjoy your run.
You know her, or what? What do you want? Where are you? Show me.
Show me.
Good.
You're on your own? Yep.
You wanted to know what happened to Evan, yeah? Do you know? I know something.
I know who knows.
Who? I told you.
Evan owes me.
You want to know who, you pay me 20,000.
You're taking a big risk.
What if I go to the police? Go ahead.
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine You make me happy when skies are grey You'll never know, dear, how much I love you Please don't take my sunshine away You are my sunshine, my only sunshine Mam? Phone's ringing.
Thanks, babes.
OK? Mm-hm.
Steve? I fixed your meet with the Glynns.
When? Meet me in Pont Dafydd in 30 minutes.
I can't.
30 minutes? I can't do it in 30 minutes.
It might be your only chance.
I'll be waiting for you.
St Are you sure you want to do this? Yes.
Well, you're just in time.
Better give me your phone.
What? Phone.
You Faith Howells? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Come with me.
Just you.
Be fair.
Are you coming or what? OK? Yeah.
Yeah.
Sure? I'm OK.
Round and round and round and round and round and round.
There can be no lumps in it! OK, let's have a taste.
Let's have a taste.
Mmm! That's good.
Has it got any of them stars? Yes, it probably has, we'll have to .
.
look at the special box.
Now? Yes, now! Just a minute.
Hello, Tom Holt.
Oh, hi, Dave.
No, just me and the kids.
She's with a client.
OK.
I see.
OK, thanks for letting me know.
Right, then, how are we doing? Are those ready to go in? Yeah.
I'd say Evan's done all right for himself.
What I do for you Where is he? I've no idea.
Why did you put a note through my door, then, and a bullet? No, you didn't You didn't put this through my door? Trying to silence me, to scare me into silence? Why are you doing this? I don't understand.
It's got nothing to do with us.
Looks to me like you've had a wasted journey.
No, no, no.
Because you were seen bundling Evan into a car with you.
So what did you want with him, then? Let's be straight with each other, Mr Glynn.
I know that Evan is in trouble, all right? So I am in no rush to go to the police, OK? I don't care what he's done.
I really don't care what he's done.
I just want him home.
If it wasn't for Evan, though, that daughter of yours there, she'd be in jail, wouldn't she? Your husband owes us £80,000.
Really? I can show you the books.
You see, we don't pay taxes, but we keep very good records.
You're a liar.
I trusted your husband to look after our money, but it looks to me like he's done a bit of a flit with it instead.
Then you're his partner, right? Yeah.
Yeah.
So, you can pay it back.
Now, what shall we say? A week? Would you grow up? Grow up.
This is ridiculous! You've got a very nice house, Mrs Howells.
Yeah.
I'm sure you'll have no trouble raising 80,000.
And in the meantime, you better hope we don't find him before you do.
Oh, I know.
You know, we're very disappointed in him as well.
Don't you think about leaving town.
That would just make things so much worse.
I've got a good feeling about this.
His father's here, his sister's here.
What could be delaying his wife, I wonder? Out.
What? Out.
Get out.
Get out.
Get out! Get out! Get out of the car! You are my sunshine My only sunshine You make me happy When skies are grey.
Steve? Oh.
Oh, my God.
You're alive.
I was about to commit sacrilege and call the cops.
Oh, my God! What the hell's happened to you? Look! Just an old score being settled.
It could have been a lot worse.
Come on.
You look like you've been wading through a bog! Right.
Do you want the short version? They claim, they claim, that Evan has left owing them £80,000.
And as I'm his business partner, they now want it from me.
I found this.
It's a shoulder holster for a gun.
It was hidden on our boat.
It was a message for you.
What? Here you go.
Yeah.
Look at that! Terry.
They've got divers up at - Divers up at Mynach quarry.
- Yeah.
Well, it's probably a false alarm.
They've got divers out.
Yeah.
I'm going to need to be there right now.
Yeah.
I'll have to come with you.
They've taken my pick-up.
Jump in.
They've They found a suspicious object.
They'll be floating it up now in a minute.
What sort of object? Remains.
You look cold, love.
Are you sure you don't want to? No, we're going to stay, Terry, till we know.
Right, OK.
Well, any news and I'll let you know.
OK? They've found a body, Faith.
We don't know that.
That's what Terry just said, Daddy.
Remains.
Definitely animal remains, not human.
All this money on a dead bloody goat.
Can't win them all.
Sorry, I'll tell them, ma'am.
Good news.
They're not human.
It's a dead animal.
Oh, thank God! Oh! Anyway, I just wanted to let you know.
You were right.
False alarm.
Do you know what I'm going to do now, Steve? I'm going to go and pick up my children from my darling mother-in-law.
And I'm going to take them home and I'm going to run a bath, and open a bottle and get quietly pissed! What about the note? Screw the note.
And the bullet? Screw the bullet.
It's my home, it's my life.
It's From here on in, I'm refusing to be scared.
I'm refusing.
Let's go.
The floor's yours.
After the trial, you hinted that you might have some business you could put my way.
It's a bit tight today.
I'm trying to move the firm in a new direction.
A lot of my father's old clients are dying off.
Mmm.
I can find work for you, Evan.
The truth is, I've been looking for a man like you for a while.
But you need to know .
.
it's not without risk.
What do you have in mind? Paperwork, contracts.
Making sure everything in my little operation is nice and tidy, like.
And then .
.
maybe you can help me expand.
Cheer up! You do this right and there'll be money in it for everyone.
Come and see me Monday.
Mam? No, no, no, I'm fine.
Are you tired? Oh, she's tired.
Oh, she's tired.
She's tired, like.
Oh! Mam, the door's open.
Why is the door open? Stay there.
Just stay there.
Stay there! - I want to go to bed.
- Stay there! Evan? Evan? Somewhere out in the ocean Somewhere deep in the bay I can see my heart flowing Slowly slipping away, slipping away And there's no light out shining There's no rescuing me I can see my boat burning Slipping away, slipping away And we just Mam? Got lost.
Mam? Mam! I fell into something much deeper than us Pain Pain We'll hold on for a moment Only for one second we'll stay Stay And we'll leave an emotion Not slipping away, slipping away And we just got lost Fell into something much deeper than us Pain Pain.
