Shetland (2012) s09e04 Episode Script
Season 9, Episode 4
Our forensic team found your print
inside the Bett house.
I was with JJ.
Well?
Things didn't go to plan.
Annie Bett was a spy.
And I think you are too.
Annie came to see me last week, at work.
- What did she want?
- Started asking about flights,
some freight planes that had come in.
So, how is Jakobson being on this
list connected to Annie and Bergen?
There might not be a connection.
Did he ever talk to you
about Annie Bett?
No.
But he did talk about the girl
he was looking after.
Why didn't you tell us about this?
- I forgot.
- You forgot?
Did he have any links to Tallinn?
Estonia?
Not that I can think of.
This is where she picked up Bergen
on the night that he died.
- What were they doing here?
- The answer's in there.
I'm looking for an Angus Wallace.
Oh, someone was here earlier looking
for him.
- Is he still missing?
- He is.
He was right.
Angus, who was right?
Bergen.
You know what? My mum would be ashamed!
Fergus?
[GULLS CAW]
Right, Fergus,
I'll show you why we're here.
These wee things are called spat.
Here, take one.
Do you want to show your brother?
No, I'm fine.
Suit yourself.
They're the baby mussels.
We drop our ropes
and they attach themselves to them.
They feed from the sea water,
then, after a couple of years or so,
they grow into these.
Then we harvest them,
and we sell them, for people to eat.
You know, one day this boat
will belong to you and your brother.
Yeah?
But I'll look after it for you
until then.
Yeah?
Watch yourself.
[DISTRESS ALARM BLARES]
Mayday, Mayday, Mayday!
This is Azure Dawn!
Azure Dawn, Azure Dawn!
Come on, Fergus.
- Please, please.
- Mayday! Azure Dawn!
Position 60.11185 north,
1.54598 west.
Immediate assistance required.
Head injury. It's my brother.
Mayday Azure Dawn.
This is Shetland Coastguard.
Received Mayday, standby.
Archie, is that you?
There's been an accident.
It's Fergus. It's really bad.
We're heading in now,
but we need help here.
Mayday Azure Dawn,
this is Shetland Coastguard.
An ambulance and a coastguard
rescue team have been tasked.
Patrick, they're on their way.
They'll be there, mate.
- They're coming.
- Patrick! He's not breathing!
[HE BREATHES RAGGEDLY]
He won't let anyone touch him.
Hey. It's OK.
[HE SOBS QUIETLY]
John?
John, I'm going to have to ask you
to let us take him now.
We will look after him.
I promise.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
I need to get the mussels
off the boat
Hey. No, no, no
- ..get them ready for the
- No, no, no. Listen
I need you to stay off the boat.
This is a crime scene now,
and we're going to need to let
Forensics get on and do their job.
OK? So I want you to come with me.
We're going this way.
Right, you're in shock right now,
so you just need to breathe.
Just focus on your breathing, mate,
OK? Just breath.
It's my fault.
Why do you say that?
Me and Dad were arguing.
Fergus was trying to stop us.
- He got between us.
- [HE SOBS]
Hey.
What is it were you arguing about?
Annie.
Right, well, I'm I'm going to
have to talk to you about that.
But we don't need to do it just now.
We can do that later, OK?
I'm OK. I'm OK.
- WHISPERS: I'm OK.
- Are you sure?
Yeah, I'm OK.
Where were you Friday night, Patrick?
I er
The break-in at the Bett House.
I did it.
Why?
I knew that Annie was going to be
at that party
for her pal's birthday with Noah
..and that Ian would be there too.
I-I heard he kept a lot of cash
in the house, for his business.
Right, so it was just
a wee opportunity for you
to go in and nick it, eh?
I needed the money. I owed JJ.
Right. So you broke in.
And then what?
I turned the place over,
but there was no cash there.
Right, can anyone verify this?
Er, yeah, yeah. JJ.
JJ knew what I was going to do.
After I left Annie's, er,
I drove around for a while.
Did anyone see you?
I didn't kill Annie.
I thought she was a piece of work,
but I didn't kill her.
She didn't deserve what happened to her.
What'll happen now?
He'll go to the station,
he'll be interviewed.
After that, it depends, really.
[CAR DOOR CLOSES]
- [ENGINE STARTS]
- He'll be remanded in custody.
There might even be a trial.
It should have been me.
Will I see him again?
Not till after the postmortem.
But we can make an application.
[HE SIGHS]
[HE SOBS]
[SOBBING CONTINUES]
Tosh, you should take a look at this.
I checked out the list of flights
your pal Jamie mentioned.
Oh, yeah, great. Thanks.
VOICE BREAKS: Erm
If you get a minute,
could you take John Harris a tea?
No problem.
And keep an eye on him, will you?
Aye.
[TAP RUNS]
Mm.
Mmm.
Hmm.
[SHE GULPS]
[SHE SIGHS]
Astrid?
Astrid?
Astrid! Astrid!
[DOOR OPENS]
[DOOR CLOSES]
[WIND WHISTLES]
This is what we've been looking for,
something that connects Bergen
and Annie when they were alive.
I understand that, but there's
no grounds for a search warrant.
No grounds? Are you serious?
One of our murder victims picked up
the other one
at that facility on the night they died.
Yeah, because the kid saw a dinosaur.
All right, what about Angus Wallace?
He was watching that place and then
he just disappeared for 24 hours.
How did it go?
Oh
John Harris is in bits.
So what do we know about this place?
Well, as far as I can tell,
it's above board,
a private lab focusing
on marine research,
led by this Dr Mohan.
Yeah. Who's funding it?
Company called PharmaRes.
Set up a year ago.
Still trying to find out
who the owners are.
Did you say PharmaRes?
- Yeah.
- What, do you know the company?
No, but take a look at this.
- What am I looking at?
- Inbound charter flights.
Annie was asking about them
a few days before she died.
Look who's chartering them.
PharmaRes.
We need to get a look
inside this lab, Harry.
Then, find me some evidence
that criminality IS taking place.
- [TOSH SIGHS]
- Where is Angus now?
Medical centre released him.
He and Lisa are now
with Reverend Calder.
- Oh, course they are.
- Right, well, let's go and talk to him,
see if he can give us something
we can use.
- I don't talk to the police.
- It's just a few questions, Angus.
That's how they get you, minister,
with just a few questions.
And then a few more.
The next thing you know,
they're using all the power of the
deep state to silence you for good.
- What did that nurse give him?
- Paracetamol.
- [SHE SIGHS]
- Right. Anton Bergen.
When you woke up at the medical centre,
you said Bergen was right.
What was he right about?
Angus, Anton Bergen's dead,
along with a woman called Annie Bett,
so if you know something,
you need to tell us.
Answer the question, Angus.
The research lab.
He said they were doing
experiments in there.
- Very sinister stuff.
- And when did he tell you this?
Couple of weeks ago.
He got in touch with me
through the website.
- What website?
- Shetland Confidential.
It's full of Angus's
conspiracy theories.
Facts. Not theories.
There's a message board on there.
Bergen must've contacted him
through that.
He told me to look into that lab,
and that's what I did.
And?
And he was right. Oh there's
some strange things going on there.
I got inside the place.
What did you see?
I can't remember. Oh, bloody hell.
I-I reckon I was attacked.
Taken unawares.
Which is, er, strange 'cos usually
I'm well prepared for an ambush.
But, er, anyway, the next thing I know,
I'm in the medical centre with
the minister standing over my bed.
Did you see who attacked you?
No. It's all very All very fuzzy.
How many were there?
Well, I'm I'm no pushover, so
there must have been at least ten.
- Ten?! Oh
- Right. Give or take.
- Right, yeah. Yeah.
- Ten.
If he remembers anything else,
then I'll let you know, but
- Tosh, can I just have a wee minute?
- Sure.
I said keep an eye on them,
not move them into the bloody house.
But Angus needs to recover.
Yeah, it's not Angus
that I'm worried about.
You can't have a young woman
like that staying with you.
Why? What's the problem, Ruth?
Oh, God, Alan!
Even you can't be this stupid.
There's nothing untoward here.
OK.
Yeah, great. OK.
Yeah, we'll meet you down there.
Harry's getting us the search warrant.
How the?
How did you pull that one off?
Well, I told him that
a vulnerable member of our community
was assaulted there last night,
by multiple assailants.
He wasn't assaulted by Mmm.
We don't know that for sure.
Very good.
VOICEMAIL: Hey, you reached Astrid.
- Please leave a message.
- [BEEP]
[HE SIGHS]
[RINGING TONE]
VOICEMAIL: Hey, you reached Astrid.
- Please leave a message.
- [BEEP]
[DESK PHONE RINGS]
What is this?
Dr Mohan, we have a warrant
to search your premises,
so we're going to need you to
stay out here.
Wait, what? What?
Alex, just get somebody to keep
an eye on her, will you?
And then check the exterior.
Lorna, I need you inside with us.
Yes, Ma'am.
[SHE SIGHS]
Right, start by searching that lot.
Those boxes.
Yep.
This isn't right.
Bergen told Angus
they were doing experiments here.
Where were these experiments
supposed to be happening?
There's nothing here.
Maybe Angus got it wrong.
Maybe nothing WAS happening here.
So what were Annie and Bergen doing
here,
on the night they were killed?
[RUTH GROANS]
There was a door there.
What?
Yesterday.
There was a door there!
Somebody's covered it up.
- Think we could try and move this?
- Lorna?
[THEY GRUNT]
- I mean
- [DOOR CLOSES]
..Angus could have come down here.
What the hell IS this place?
Ruth
What do we think
the big creepy chair is for?
Well, it sure as hell
isn't lipid research.
We need to get Cora down here.
I understand why you want to know
about my work.
However, I-I can't give you
any information.
That's not a problem.
Our pathologist is up at the lab
at the moment,
so I'm sure she'll be able to tell
us exactly what you've been up to.
In the meantime
..shall we talk about a man called
Anton Bergen?
Anton Bergen was murdered four days ago,
along with a woman called Annie Bett.
Did you know Anton Bergen?
No comment.
Did he ever contact you?
No comment. What about Annie Bett?
Angus Wallace.
Did you know him?
No comment.
Angus Wallace claims
that he was attacked at your lab,
two nights ago.
Devinda, we've got three people
linked to that lab.
Two of them have been murdered,
another assaulted.
You told me yesterday that you're
the only person that works there.
I think we have to assume
that you are
- [PHONE RINGS]
- somehow involved.
- Hey, Cora.
- [KNOCK ON WINDOW]
- [DOOR OPENS]
- Well, that'll be the pathologist.
[DOOR CLOSES]
[DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]
[SHE BREATHES SHAKILY]
- What have you got for us?
- She's been working with stem cells.
As in?
As in humans embryos.
Looks like she's been storing them here.
And that's illegal, right?
Well, she'd need a licence to use them.
And transport them.
But that's not what bothers me, though.
It's hard to decipher her notes,
but I think she's been developing
a bespoke treatment down here.
Meaning she only has one patient?
Aye. And by the looks of this lab,
I'd say a patient with money.
Or one whose dad has money.
[PEOPLE CHAT]
[CAR HORN BEEPS]
[DOOR OPENS]
Astrid Jakobson.
That's who you've been treating,
isn't it?
Our pathologist has just told us
that you have been developing
a treatment for Astrid,
using stem cells from human embryos.
Devinda, I think we both know
that this treatment is unlicensed,
or worse, illegal.
I mean, why would
a doctor of your pedigree be working
in a glorified Portakabin
in the arse end of nowhere?
You can understand
why Stefan MIGHT think
Bergen's silence was worth killing for?
Hmm?
Time for you to start talking.
So Jakobson was funding Mohan.
And I take it this had something
to do with Astrid's condition?
Mohan was developing a treatment
for her.
That's why Bergen was at the lab
on the night he and Annie died.
He was trying to put a stop to it.
According to Mohan, Stefan
stepped out of the lab that night
to confront Bergen,
didn't come back for an hour.
Do you think Jakobson killed them?
Well, I think
that's what we need to find out.
[SHE BREATHES HEAVILY]
Astrid.
Oh, my God, are you OK?
[SHE COUGHS]
Are you sure you're OK?
Do you need a doctor?
I need your help.
Is it about Anton?
Do you know what happened to him?
I don't. I'm sorry.
I need to leave Shetland.
I need your help to get off
the Isles without anyone knowing.
Look, I don't know what made you
think that I'd be the guy for this.
Anton told me you could help.
He told me if I was ever in trouble,
I should go find you
..that you were kind.
Yeah, but Anton was a liar.
He was your boyfriend.
He broke up with me.
No.
- He wouldn't do that.
- Yeah, well, he did.
But he loved you.
He talked about you all the time.
Said you were going away together.
Please, Nathan, can you help me?
20 minutes' drive
from the lab to the croft.
Jakobson had an hour.
Yeah, it would've been tight,
but he could have done it.
Have you found her?
How long has she been gone?
We think she slipped out
sometime early this morning.
Why didn't you call us?
Because we thought that
she had just gone out for a walk.
Stefan went looking for her.
Right, how long has Stefan been looking?
For a couple of hours.
Could I have a look in her room, please?
Of course.
- [RINGING TONE]
- Tosh?
Billy, we're at the Jakobson house.
Their daughter, Astrid, is missing.
- OK, you want us to put an alert out?
- Yeah.
On it.
Yeah, we need to check her socials,
and can we check flights?
She has some medication with her,
but she's just not well enough
to be outdoors.
Did she Did she mention going
anywhere?
No.
Where's her passport?
Gone.
First thing I checked.
What about money?
I don't think she had any.
Well, she'll not get far.
Unless she has friends?
Anton was her only friend.
What does she think she's doing?
Looks to me
like she was trying to escape.
We spoke to Mohan.
We know about the treatment.
I'm presuming you knew about it too?
I am aware that Astrid
is seeing Mohan, yes.
But I'm not involved.
Not involved?
You're her stepmum.
Stefan has made clear
that Astrid is his domain.
You don't approve? Of Mohan
and the stem cell treatment?
I sometimes wonder
if it does more harm than good.
Bergen and Annie Bett went to
the lab on the night they died.
Stefan was with Astrid.
He had to leave the session
to deal with something outside.
- You said it yourself.
- Well, you can't think that Stefan
That Stefan is consumed
with making Astrid feel better?
I mean, he built her a lab,
for God's sake.
- [PHONE RINGS]
- Just saying,
if Annie and Bergen were threatening
the treatment, then
Billy?
Astrid Jakobson is booked on
a flight from Sumburgh to Edinburgh,
departing in, er
..90 minutes' time.
She checked in online yesterday.
Right, get uniforms to the airport,
and can we get a search team
up to the Jakobson house?
She's headed for Edinburgh.
Does she know anyone in Edinburgh?
She barely knows anyone anywhere.
What about her birth mother?
She hasn't seen Esther for years.
But if Astrid wanted to see her mum,
where would she go?
[SHE SIGHS]
Tallinn.
I asked her
if Bergen had any links to Tallinn.
She said no. She stood there,
and she bloody lied.
To be fair,
it's Astrid who has the link,
but clearly Bergen is trying
to get her to her mum.
And, what, Annie was helping him?
One thing's for sure,
Stefan and Karin had no idea
she was planning to go.
But if Stefan found out,
that would give him a motive.
We need to find him.
Noah, your dad's here!
[CAR DOOR CLOSES]
[HE CHUCKLES SOFTLY]
Ah Welcome home, Ian.
Hey. Oh
Hey.
Hey, kiddo.
Don't worry, I'm OK.
Any sign of them?
- No. But the flight's boarding.
- And Jakobson?
- No sign of him either.
- We don't want to spook either of them.
Cover the car park and the entrance,
but keep a low profile.
- Get rid of that patrol car.
- Sure.
Cheers for this, Joe.
Sorry to be so last-minute.
Just need to get something down to
my cousin's restaurant in Aberdeen.
I missed the normal pick-up.
It's all right. You got the paperwork?
Here you go.
Shove them in there.
I'll have to leave in 20 minutes.
Otherwise we'll miss the check-in.
Wicked.
TANNOY: Can passengers on Flight 756
please prepare for boarding?
Is it safe?
We're going over there.
Hide right at the back.
- Is that you sorted?
- Yeah. Thanks again for this.
No bother, mate.
[DOOR CLATTERS]
TANNOY: This is the final call for
Loganair Flight 356 to Edinburgh.
Can all passengers please proceed
immediately to Gate 1?
She's not coming, is she?
Doesn't look like it.
[SHIP HORN BLOWS]
Move forward!
To the right, to the right!
- [TYRES SQUEAL]
- That's Jakobson's car.
Mr Jakobson?
Listen, I don't have time for this
right now.
I need to find my daughter.
She's desperately ill.
We're doing everything we can
to find Astrid,
but right now, I'm going to need you
to come with me.
You are under arrest, Mr Jakobson,
on suspicion of the murders
of Annie Bett and Anton Bergen.
[SHE BREATHES RAGGEDLY]
[SHE GASPS AND GROANS]
Hello?
[DULL BANGING]
[SHE SOBS AND GASPS]
- [PHONE VIBRATES]
- Enjoy. Thank you.
Astrid? Are you OK?
Astrid?
[DIALLING TONE]

[DIALLING TONE]
[PHONE RINGS]
OVER LOUDSPEAKER: Final call
for foot passengers.
Please make your way
to the passenger decks.
[KEYPAD BEEPS]
[RINGING TONE]
Hello, Shetland Police.
[PHONE RINGS]
Hi, Billy?
Nathan Huang just called the station.
He has information on Astrid Jakobson.
She's being hidden in a blue truck
to get her off the Isles by ferry.
I'll send you the details.
But, Tosh, it sails in ten minutes.
OK, thanks, Billy. We're on it.
Send a unit there now.
What is it? We need to get
to the ferry terminal.
She's on the back of a truck.
Excuse me. Sorry. Sorry.
Out the way. Excuse me. Shetland Police!
Astrid!
Astrid, are you in there?
Can we get this open, please?!
Oh, shit, there's another one.
Police! We need this open this, now!
Astrid! Are you in there?
Tosh, it's empty!
Can we open this, please?! Quickly!
Oh, my God! Astrid!
Astrid, can you hear me?
Is she breathing?
Just. We need an ambulance!
Astrid, you're going to be all right.
Excellent, thank you.
Hi, Michael.
Lisa's stuff. She got me
to come and collect it.
Got you skivvying for her, eh?
I hear I hear Ian's back home.
How's he doing? Hard to tell.
Right. Here, I've been thinking,
it's going to be a while before
Annie gets a proper funeral.
That doesn't mean to say that
we cannot hold
some sort of memorial service for her.
Just something small. Family, friends.
You know, it might be of comfort
to Ian and Noah.
Aye. Think they'd like that.
Yeah. OK.
- I'll give Ian a call.
- Aye.
Hello there.
You must be Noah.
I'm Euan.
Nice to meet you.
I was a friend of your mother's,
an old friend.
Let me tell you how I met her.
Noah?
Hey. Hey, what the he-..?
Are you OK?
- The fuck are YOU doing?!
- It's all right, I'm leaving now.
Hey!
Hey, get back here.
Agh! Agh!
Dad!
Stay there, Noah!
I don't want any trouble, Mr Bett.
And your boy doesn't need to see
his dad get hurt again.
I knew Annie before you knew her,
and I was very fond of her.
I am so sorry for what has happened.
But believe me,
I am working to put it right.
So what I need you to do is to
go back and take care of your son.
- Agh! Can you do that for me?
- Fine. Aye, all right!
He looks like her, doesn't he?
Astrid, we need to talk about Anton.
At first, Anton thought
the treatment was a good thing.
I did too.
But I collapsed one day.
Karin and Dad were out.
Anton was so frightened,
he took me here.
The next day, we talked, and
Anton agreed to help me get away.
How did he help you?
Initially, he didn't know what to
do, but then he found a friend.
He said she would know how to get me
off the Isles, and over to Estonia.
Was Was this woman Annie Bett?
I think so, but we never met.
Oh.
I wasn't supposed to leave
until next week,
- but then Dad found out.
- When was this?
The day Anton died.
Dad found maps of Tallinn on my phone.
He made me tell him about the plan.
I take it he wasn't too pleased.
He said he was going to send Anton
back to France.
Astrid, we think Anton came
to the lab later that night.
We think his friend, Annie,
was there too.
Did you see either of them that night?
Dr Mohan says your dad went outside,
that he argued with someone.
You think that was Anton?
I don't know.
You remember your dad leaving?
When did he come back?
I'm not sure.
Maybe an hour later.
Can you remember what he was like,
when he came back?
He'd been crying.
I know what you're thinking,
but Dad wouldn't hurt Anton.
He wouldn't.
He's just so focused on fixing me
that he doesn't see the harm it's doing.
I mean, the evidence is compelling,
despite what his daughter says.
He's definitely controlling
and he's obsessed with
getting Astrid this treatment.
Yeah, and if Annie and Bergen
were trying to get Astrid away,
I can imagine he would want to try
and stop them.
And the timeline works?
Well, Mohan and Astrid both say that
he was gone for an hour that night,
which is enough time to get to
the croft, do the deed and get back.
What about the gun?
Oh, we've got a team searching
the Jakobson house as we speak.
You never know.
Why kill Annie?
Collateral damage.
Bergen was the target,
Annie just happened to be there.
Wrong place, wrong time.
Go see what he has to say.
Find out what happened between him
and Bergen in that missing hour.
[DOOR OPENS]
- Where is Astrid?
- She's recovering.
They're keeping her for a bit
longer, but just for observation.
OK, I need to go and talk to her.
Well, actually, what you need to do
is sit down
and tell us why you're using
a secret lab to treat your daughter
with illegal stem cell therapy.
So we have spoken to Dr Mohan,
and she has given us a statement.
Our Fiscal is compiling charges
against you and Dr Mohan
that could see you both serve time.
What were you thinking?
I was thinking about my daughter.
What, by using her as a lab rat?
When Mohan's treatment works
Yeah, but it doesn't work, does it?
I mean, Astrid's already had
several infusions,
with no real improvement.
You don't understand.
Mohan's work is cutting-edge.
It's experimental, but Astrid
just needs to keep on going.
Astrid doesn't want this.
Astrid is a child.
She doesn't know what
- She's 16.
- Exactly. She's a child!
And she's my child.
She is, she's your daughter.
And you obviously care for her
very much.
You must have been absolutely furious,
when you found out that Anton was
helping her try and get to Tallinn,
to see her mother.
Anton was wrong to try and
manipulate Astrid the way he did.
Anton didn't manipulate her.
Astrid wanted to get away from you.
That's not true.
What happened when Anton turned up
at the lab that night?
- Nothing. I sent him away.
- What did he want?
He was emotional. And, erm,
he wanted to stop Astrid's sessions.
What, and you wouldn't allow that?
Of course not, cos that could harm her.
Did the argument get physical?
Yes, I hit him. And he hit me,
and it was all over in a matter
of minutes, and then he left.
Mmm. Did you go after him?
No.
What about Annie Bett?
Did you argue with her that night?
- Why would I argue with Annie Bett?
- Because she was helping Anton.
I didn't argue with Annie Bett.
I didn't see Annie Bett.
I only saw Anton.
What did you do the rest of the time?
I sat in my car.
For an hour?
The fight with Anton upset me.
And I didn't want Astrid to see me
in that state.
So, yes, I just sat in my car.
Astrid said that you'd been crying.
Yes.
Why?
Because I guess I realised that
..that maybe I can't save her.
Crying in the front seat of your SUV?
As an alibi, it's original.
It's bollocks.
Yeah, well, until we have something
to prove otherwise,
we're stuck with it.
Hey, get anything from the search
at the Jakobsons'?
Nothing so far. They're still at it.
But they did find this.
What's this I'm looking at?
We downloaded the data
from the Jakobson car.
That there is the GPS information
from Friday night.
And this is all there is?
He drove from the house to the lab
and then back to the house again.
Got home at 2:15am.
So he didn't go to Wethersta?
Not according to his car.
Could he have hacked the system?
There's no sign of that.
So he really was crying in his car.
Which means
he was nowhere near the croft.
Which means he can't have done it.
Ruth, you got a call from Ian Bett.
- He needs you to call him back.
- OK.
What's the plan with Jakobson?
Er, Harry's still compiling charges.
We'll need to hang on to him for
a few hours, then he'll get bail.
- He wants to talk to his daughter.
- Ah.
Well, she's still at the hospital.
Do you want to see
if you can set up a call, Billy?
OK.
When was this?
This afternoon. Caught him
out the back hanging around Noah.
I'm so sorry. That must have been
really scary for him.
Look, don't worry,
I'm going to sort it out, OK?
All right, bye-bye.
[HE SIGHS]
[RINGING TONE]
- Hi.
- Rob, it's
- This is Harding. Leave a message.
- [SHE GROANS]
Hi, Rob.
It's Ruth.
Ruth Calder.
[SHE CLEARS THROAT]
I'm not sure if you're still
speaking to me or not, but, er,
I need to speak to you
about one of your lot.
It's a guy called Euan Rossi.
So, if you could call me back.
Please.
- What's troubling you?
- I'm just trying to work out
why Annie agreed to help Bergen
smuggle Astrid off the Isles.
Well, if she thought
Astrid was in danger?
Yeah, but why not come to us
about it? Why take such a risk?
What's that?
Oh, I pulled the admission records
from the night Bergen took Astrid
into the hospital.
Oh, yeah. Why's that?
It was the 5th of May.
The day before Annie made
the first call to Bergen.
See, I reckon this might be
where they first met.
According to the records,
Annie was in A&E at the same time.
Why was Annie admitted?
She wasn't. She brought someone in.
Tosh?
Have you got a minute, Tara?
Yeah.
Frank's just on his way home.
I'm having a wee wine while I wait.
- Can I get you a glass?
- Oh, no. Thanks, I'm good.
Is everything OK?
Yeah.
Yeah. It's just
Something's come up, in the case.
It's a small thing,
but I have to follow up on it.
OK.
We've been trying to understand
Annie's relationship with Anton Bergen.
We think we now know where and when
they first met.
And we believe
that it was the 5th of May
..at Lerwick Hospital.
Obviously we looked
at the admissions for that night.
Jesus Christ! I'm so sorry.
Is this really your job, Tosh?
Rooting around in people's lives?
Tara, I don't mean to invade
your privacy,
and if you don't want to tell me
the details
Sounds like you know them already.
What did you do? Read my medical
records? Interrogate the doctors?
There's a bin over there
if you want to rake through it.
The only thing I'm interested in
is Annie.
I know that she took you in.
I need to know if you saw a young
girl, Swedish, at A&E that night.
She'd have been there with Bergen.
I was losing my baby, Tosh.
I know.
How are you feeling?
Yeah, fine.
Wasn't the first time, so
Well Frank, how's he?
Frank doesn't know.
I didn't tell him I was pregnant.
I didn't want to get his hopes up again.
I really didn't mean to upset you, Tara.
I'm just trying to find out
how this happened to Annie.
I should go.
This girl,
she was strawberry blonde, right?
Yeah, I remember her now.
She was a few cubicles down from me.
She did have a guy with her.
Foreign too. Are you saying
that was Anton Bergen?
Well, I didn't know that.
And I didn't see Annie speak to him.
But later, when we were leaving,
the girl's parents were outside
in the corridor.
And Annie seemed a bit spooked.
Hey.
Sorry I'm so late.
What's wrong?
- [MESSAGE SENDS]
- What the hell's happened with Tara?
Frank's been messaging.
Says you came round,
now Tara's really upset,
and she won't tell him anything.
Look, it's work, Donnie.
I can't talk about it, OK?
No.
No, it's not OK.
You can't keep using that as an excuse
to go around pissing everyone off.
These are our friends, Tosh.
We know these people.
No, but that's it, though.
We DON'T know them.
Not really.
Look, we THINK we do.
We go for drinks.
And we meet for coffee.
We tell each other things,
but not everything.
Because everyone has something.
OK? Something they don't want
anyone else to know.
And normally that is fine. Cos
we're all allowed to have secrets.
But when someone is killed,
it all comes out.
And whether you like it or not,
it is my job to get it out.
Well, to be honest, Tosh,
I don't know how you can do your job.
I am trying to find out
who killed Annie,
and I won't apologise for that.

Ruth?
It's Rob. Rob Harding.
Oh.
- Well, you took your time.
- CHUCKLES: Sorry. Er
I wasn't expecting to hear from you.
How are you?
I'm fine.
- I'm in Shetland.
- You went home?
I did.
Where's the drop-off?
Er, listen, your message. Euan Rossi,
why were you asking about him?
Yeah. We're investigating the murder
of a woman called Annie Bett.
She worked with Rossi as an analyst.
Sorry, how do you know that?
Rossi told me.
When?
- Day after he got here.
- Wait, Rossi's in Shetland?
Yeah. For the last three days.
Ruth, you need to bring him in.
I don't know why he's there
or what he's doing,
but Rossi's dangerous.
You need to get him.
Now.
inside the Bett house.
I was with JJ.
Well?
Things didn't go to plan.
Annie Bett was a spy.
And I think you are too.
Annie came to see me last week, at work.
- What did she want?
- Started asking about flights,
some freight planes that had come in.
So, how is Jakobson being on this
list connected to Annie and Bergen?
There might not be a connection.
Did he ever talk to you
about Annie Bett?
No.
But he did talk about the girl
he was looking after.
Why didn't you tell us about this?
- I forgot.
- You forgot?
Did he have any links to Tallinn?
Estonia?
Not that I can think of.
This is where she picked up Bergen
on the night that he died.
- What were they doing here?
- The answer's in there.
I'm looking for an Angus Wallace.
Oh, someone was here earlier looking
for him.
- Is he still missing?
- He is.
He was right.
Angus, who was right?
Bergen.
You know what? My mum would be ashamed!
Fergus?
[GULLS CAW]
Right, Fergus,
I'll show you why we're here.
These wee things are called spat.
Here, take one.
Do you want to show your brother?
No, I'm fine.
Suit yourself.
They're the baby mussels.
We drop our ropes
and they attach themselves to them.
They feed from the sea water,
then, after a couple of years or so,
they grow into these.
Then we harvest them,
and we sell them, for people to eat.
You know, one day this boat
will belong to you and your brother.
Yeah?
But I'll look after it for you
until then.
Yeah?
Watch yourself.
[DISTRESS ALARM BLARES]
Mayday, Mayday, Mayday!
This is Azure Dawn!

Archie, is that you?
There's been an accident.
It's Fergus. It's really bad.
We're heading in now,
but we need help here.
Mayday Azure Dawn,
this is Shetland Coastguard.
An ambulance and a coastguard
rescue team have been tasked.
Patrick, they're on their way.
They'll be there, mate.

- Patrick! He's not breathing!
[HE BREATHES RAGGEDLY]
He won't let anyone touch him.
Hey. It's OK.
[HE SOBS QUIETLY]
John?
John, I'm going to have to ask you
to let us take him now.
We will look after him.
I promise.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
I need to get the mussels
off the boat
Hey. No, no, no
- ..get them ready for the

I need you to stay off the boat.
This is a crime scene now,
and we're going to need to let
Forensics get on and do their job.
OK? So I want you to come with me.
We're going this way.
Right, you're in shock right now,
so you just need to breathe.
Just focus on your breathing, mate,
OK? Just breath.
It's my fault.
Why do you say that?
Me and Dad were arguing.
Fergus was trying to stop us.
- He got between us.
- [HE SOBS]
Hey.
What is it were you arguing about?
Annie.
Right, well, I'm I'm going to
have to talk to you about that.
But we don't need to do it just now.
We can do that later, OK?
I'm OK. I'm OK.
- WHISPERS: I'm OK.
- Are you sure?
Yeah, I'm OK.
Where were you Friday night, Patrick?
I er
The break-in at the Bett House.
I did it.
Why?
I knew that Annie was going to be
at that party
for her pal's birthday with Noah
..and that Ian would be there too.
I-I heard he kept a lot of cash
in the house, for his business.
Right, so it was just
a wee opportunity for you
to go in and nick it, eh?
I needed the money. I owed JJ.
Right. So you broke in.
And then what?
I turned the place over,
but there was no cash there.
Right, can anyone verify this?
Er, yeah, yeah. JJ.
JJ knew what I was going to do.
After I left Annie's, er,
I drove around for a while.
Did anyone see you?
I didn't kill Annie.
I thought she was a piece of work,
but I didn't kill her.
She didn't deserve what happened to her.
What'll happen now?
He'll go to the station,
he'll be interviewed.
After that, it depends, really.
[CAR DOOR CLOSES]
- [ENGINE STARTS]
- He'll be remanded in custody.
There might even be a trial.
It should have been me.
Will I see him again?
Not till after the postmortem.
But we can make an application.

your pal Jamie mentioned.

[WIND WHISTLES]
This is what we've been looking for,
something that connects Bergen
and Annie when they were alive.
I understand that, but there's
no grounds for a search warrant.
No grounds? Are you serious?
One of our murder victims picked up
the other one
at that facility on the night they died.
Yeah, because the kid saw a dinosaur.
All right, what about Angus Wallace?
He was watching that place and then
he just disappeared for 24 hours.
How did it go?
Oh
John Harris is in bits.
So what do we know about this place?
Well, as far as I can tell,
it's above board,
a private lab focusing
on marine research,
led by this Dr Mohan.
Yeah. Who's funding it?
Company called PharmaRes.
Set up a year ago.
Still trying to find out
who the owners are.
Did you say PharmaRes?
- Yeah.
- What, do you know the company?
No, but take a look at this.
- What am I looking at?
- Inbound charter flights.
Annie was asking about them
a few days before she died.
Look who's chartering them.
PharmaRes.
We need to get a look
inside this lab, Harry.
Then, find me some evidence
that criminality IS taking place.
- [TOSH SIGHS]
- Where is Angus now?
Medical centre released him.
He and Lisa are now
with Reverend Calder.
- Oh, course they are.
- Right, well, let's go and talk to him,
see if he can give us something
we can use.
- I don't talk to the police.
- It's just a few questions, Angus.
That's how they get you, minister,
with just a few questions.
And then a few more.
The next thing you know,
they're using all the power of the
deep state to silence you for good.
- What did that nurse give him?
- Paracetamol.
- [SHE SIGHS]
- Right. Anton Bergen.
When you woke up at the medical centre,
you said Bergen was right.
What was he right about?
Angus, Anton Bergen's dead,
along with a woman called Annie Bett,
so if you know something,
you need to tell us.
Answer the question, Angus.
The research lab.
He said they were doing
experiments in there.
- Very sinister stuff.
- And when did he tell you this?
Couple of weeks ago.
He got in touch with me
through the website.
- What website?
- Shetland Confidential.
It's full of Angus's
conspiracy theories.
Facts. Not theories.
There's a message board on there.
Bergen must've contacted him
through that.
He told me to look into that lab,
and that's what I did.
And?
And he was right. Oh there's
some strange things going on there.
I got inside the place.
What did you see?
I can't remember. Oh, bloody hell.
I-I reckon I was attacked.
Taken unawares.
Which is, er, strange 'cos usually
I'm well prepared for an ambush.
But, er, anyway, the next thing I know,
I'm in the medical centre with
the minister standing over my bed.
Did you see who attacked you?
No. It's all very All very fuzzy.
How many were there?
Well, I'm I'm no pushover, so
there must have been at least ten.
- Ten?! Oh
- Right. Give or take.
- Right, yeah. Yeah.
- Ten.
If he remembers anything else,
then I'll let you know, but
- Tosh, can I just have a wee minute?
- Sure.
I said keep an eye on them,
not move them into the bloody house.
But Angus needs to recover.
Yeah, it's not Angus
that I'm worried about.
You can't have a young woman
like that staying with you.
Why? What's the problem, Ruth?
Oh, God, Alan!
Even you can't be this stupid.
There's nothing untoward here.
OK.
Yeah, great. OK.
Yeah, we'll meet you down there.
Harry's getting us the search warrant.
How the?
How did you pull that one off?
Well, I told him that
a vulnerable member of our community
was assaulted there last night,
by multiple assailants.
He wasn't assaulted by Mmm.
We don't know that for sure.
Very good.

And then check the exterior.
Lorna, I need you inside with us.
Yes, Ma'am.
[SHE SIGHS]
Right, start by searching that lot.
Those boxes.
Yep.
This isn't right.
Bergen told Angus
they were doing experiments here.
Where were these experiments
supposed to be happening?
There's nothing here.
Maybe Angus got it wrong.
Maybe nothing WAS happening here.
So what were Annie and Bergen doing
here,
on the night they were killed?
[RUTH GROANS]
There was a door there.
What?
Yesterday.
There was a door there!
Somebody's covered it up.
- Think we could try and move this?
- Lorna?
[THEY GRUNT]
- I mean
- [DOOR CLOSES]
..Angus could have come down here.
What the hell IS this place?
Ruth
What do we think
the big creepy chair is for?
Well, it sure as hell
isn't lipid research.
We need to get Cora down here.
I understand why you want to know
about my work.
However, I-I can't give you
any information.
That's not a problem.
Our pathologist is up at the lab
at the moment,
so I'm sure she'll be able to tell
us exactly what you've been up to.
In the meantime
..shall we talk about a man called
Anton Bergen?
Anton Bergen was murdered four days ago,
along with a woman called Annie Bett.
Did you know Anton Bergen?
No comment.
Did he ever contact you?
No comment. What about Annie Bett?
Angus Wallace.
Did you know him?
No comment.
Angus Wallace claims
that he was attacked at your lab,
two nights ago.
Devinda, we've got three people
linked to that lab.
Two of them have been murdered,
another assaulted.
You told me yesterday that you're
the only person that works there.
I think we have to assume
that you are
- [PHONE RINGS]
- somehow involved.
- Hey, Cora.
- [KNOCK ON WINDOW]
- [DOOR OPENS]
- Well, that'll be the pathologist.
[DOOR CLOSES]
[DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]
[SHE BREATHES SHAKILY]
- What have you got for us?
- She's been working with stem cells.
As in?
As in humans embryos.
Looks like she's been storing them here.
And that's illegal, right?
Well, she'd need a licence to use them.
And transport them.
But that's not what bothers me, though.
It's hard to decipher her notes,
but I think she's been developing
a bespoke treatment down here.
Meaning she only has one patient?
Aye. And by the looks of this lab,
I'd say a patient with money.
Or one whose dad has money.
[PEOPLE CHAT]
[CAR HORN BEEPS]
[DOOR OPENS]
Astrid Jakobson.
That's who you've been treating,
isn't it?
Our pathologist has just told us
that you have been developing
a treatment for Astrid,
using stem cells from human embryos.
Devinda, I think we both know
that this treatment is unlicensed,
or worse, illegal.
I mean, why would
a doctor of your pedigree be working
in a glorified Portakabin
in the arse end of nowhere?
You can understand
why Stefan MIGHT think
Bergen's silence was worth killing for?
Hmm?
Time for you to start talking.
So Jakobson was funding Mohan.
And I take it this had something
to do with Astrid's condition?
Mohan was developing a treatment
for her.
That's why Bergen was at the lab
on the night he and Annie died.
He was trying to put a stop to it.
According to Mohan, Stefan
stepped out of the lab that night
to confront Bergen,
didn't come back for an hour.
Do you think Jakobson killed them?
Well, I think
that's what we need to find out.
[SHE BREATHES HEAVILY]
Astrid.
Oh, my God, are you OK?
[SHE COUGHS]
Are you sure you're OK?
Do you need a doctor?
I need your help.
Is it about Anton?
Do you know what happened to him?
I don't. I'm sorry.
I need to leave Shetland.
I need your help to get off
the Isles without anyone knowing.
Look, I don't know what made you
think that I'd be the guy for this.
Anton told me you could help.
He told me if I was ever in trouble,
I should go find you
..that you were kind.
Yeah, but Anton was a liar.
He was your boyfriend.
He broke up with me.
No.
- He wouldn't do that.
- Yeah, well, he did.
But he loved you.
He talked about you all the time.
Said you were going away together.
Please, Nathan, can you help me?
20 minutes' drive
from the lab to the croft.
Jakobson had an hour.
Yeah, it would've been tight,
but he could have done it.
Have you found her?
How long has she been gone?
We think she slipped out
sometime early this morning.
Why didn't you call us?
Because we thought that
she had just gone out for a walk.
Stefan went looking for her.
Right, how long has Stefan been looking?
For a couple of hours.
Could I have a look in her room, please?
Of course.
- [RINGING TONE]
- Tosh?
Billy, we're at the Jakobson house.
Their daughter, Astrid, is missing.
- OK, you want us to put an alert out?
- Yeah.
On it.
Yeah, we need to check her socials,
and can we check flights?
She has some medication with her,
but she's just not well enough
to be outdoors.
Did she Did she mention going
anywhere?
No.
Where's her passport?
Gone.
First thing I checked.
What about money?
I don't think she had any.
Well, she'll not get far.
Unless she has friends?
Anton was her only friend.
What does she think she's doing?
Looks to me
like she was trying to escape.
We spoke to Mohan.
We know about the treatment.
I'm presuming you knew about it too?
I am aware that Astrid
is seeing Mohan, yes.
But I'm not involved.
Not involved?
You're her stepmum.
Stefan has made clear
that Astrid is his domain.
You don't approve? Of Mohan
and the stem cell treatment?
I sometimes wonder
if it does more harm than good.
Bergen and Annie Bett went to
the lab on the night they died.
Stefan was with Astrid.
He had to leave the session
to deal with something outside.
- You said it yourself.
- Well, you can't think that Stefan
That Stefan is consumed
with making Astrid feel better?
I mean, he built her a lab,
for God's sake.
- [PHONE RINGS]
- Just saying,
if Annie and Bergen were threatening
the treatment, then
Billy?
Astrid Jakobson is booked on
a flight from Sumburgh to Edinburgh,
departing in, er
..90 minutes' time.
She checked in online yesterday.
Right, get uniforms to the airport,
and can we get a search team
up to the Jakobson house?
She's headed for Edinburgh.
Does she know anyone in Edinburgh?
She barely knows anyone anywhere.
What about her birth mother?
She hasn't seen Esther for years.
But if Astrid wanted to see her mum,
where would she go?
[SHE SIGHS]
Tallinn.
I asked her
if Bergen had any links to Tallinn.
She said no. She stood there,
and she bloody lied.
To be fair,
it's Astrid who has the link,
but clearly Bergen is trying
to get her to her mum.
And, what, Annie was helping him?
One thing's for sure,
Stefan and Karin had no idea
she was planning to go.
But if Stefan found out,
that would give him a motive.
We need to find him.
Noah, your dad's here!

Hey. Oh

- And Jakobson?
- No sign of him either.
- We don't want to spook either of them.

but keep a low profile.

Sorry to be so last-minute.

Hi, Billy?
Nathan Huang just called the station.
He has information on Astrid Jakobson.
She's being hidden in a blue truck

I'll send you the details.
But, Tosh, it sails in ten minutes.
OK, thanks, Billy. We're on it.
Send a unit there now.
What is it? We need to get

She's on the back of a truck.
Excuse me. Sorry. Sorry.

Can we get this open, please?!
Oh, shit, there's another one.

Tosh, it's empty!
Can we open this, please?! Quickly!
Oh, my God! Astrid!
Astrid, can you hear me?
Is she breathing?
Just. We need an ambulance!
Astrid, you're going to be all right.
Excellent, thank you.
Hi, Michael.
Lisa's stuff. She got me
to come and collect it.
Got you skivvying for her, eh?
I hear I hear Ian's back home.
How's he doing? Hard to tell.
Right. Here, I've been thinking,
it's going to be a while before
Annie gets a proper funeral.
That doesn't mean to say that
we cannot hold
some sort of memorial service for her.
Just something small. Family, friends.
You know, it might be of comfort
to Ian and Noah.
Aye. Think they'd like that.
Yeah. OK.
- I'll give Ian a call.
- Aye.
Hello there.
You must be Noah.
I'm Euan.
Nice to meet you.
I was a friend of your mother's,
an old friend.
Let me tell you how I met her.
Noah?
Hey. Hey, what the he-..?
Are you OK?
- The fuck are YOU doing?!
- It's all right, I'm leaving now.
Hey!
Hey, get back here.
Agh! Agh!
Dad!
Stay there, Noah!
I don't want any trouble, Mr Bett.
And your boy doesn't need to see
his dad get hurt again.
I knew Annie before you knew her,
and I was very fond of her.
I am so sorry for what has happened.
But believe me,
I am working to put it right.
So what I need you to do is to
go back and take care of your son.
- Agh! Can you do that for me?
- Fine. Aye, all right!
He looks like her, doesn't he?
Astrid, we need to talk about Anton.
At first, Anton thought
the treatment was a good thing.
I did too.
But I collapsed one day.
Karin and Dad were out.
Anton was so frightened,
he took me here.
The next day, we talked, and
Anton agreed to help me get away.
How did he help you?
Initially, he didn't know what to
do, but then he found a friend.
He said she would know how to get me
off the Isles, and over to Estonia.
Was Was this woman Annie Bett?
I think so, but we never met.
Oh.
I wasn't supposed to leave
until next week,
- but then Dad found out.
- When was this?
The day Anton died.
Dad found maps of Tallinn on my phone.
He made me tell him about the plan.
I take it he wasn't too pleased.
He said he was going to send Anton
back to France.
Astrid, we think Anton came
to the lab later that night.
We think his friend, Annie,
was there too.
Did you see either of them that night?
Dr Mohan says your dad went outside,
that he argued with someone.
You think that was Anton?
I don't know.
You remember your dad leaving?
When did he come back?
I'm not sure.
Maybe an hour later.
Can you remember what he was like,
when he came back?
He'd been crying.
I know what you're thinking,
but Dad wouldn't hurt Anton.
He wouldn't.
He's just so focused on fixing me
that he doesn't see the harm it's doing.
I mean, the evidence is compelling,
despite what his daughter says.
He's definitely controlling
and he's obsessed with
getting Astrid this treatment.
Yeah, and if Annie and Bergen
were trying to get Astrid away,
I can imagine he would want to try
and stop them.
And the timeline works?
Well, Mohan and Astrid both say that
he was gone for an hour that night,
which is enough time to get to
the croft, do the deed and get back.
What about the gun?
Oh, we've got a team searching
the Jakobson house as we speak.
You never know.
Why kill Annie?
Collateral damage.
Bergen was the target,
Annie just happened to be there.
Wrong place, wrong time.
Go see what he has to say.
Find out what happened between him
and Bergen in that missing hour.
[DOOR OPENS]
- Where is Astrid?
- She's recovering.
They're keeping her for a bit
longer, but just for observation.
OK, I need to go and talk to her.
Well, actually, what you need to do
is sit down
and tell us why you're using
a secret lab to treat your daughter
with illegal stem cell therapy.
So we have spoken to Dr Mohan,
and she has given us a statement.
Our Fiscal is compiling charges
against you and Dr Mohan
that could see you both serve time.
What were you thinking?
I was thinking about my daughter.
What, by using her as a lab rat?
When Mohan's treatment works
Yeah, but it doesn't work, does it?
I mean, Astrid's already had
several infusions,
with no real improvement.
You don't understand.
Mohan's work is cutting-edge.
It's experimental, but Astrid
just needs to keep on going.
Astrid doesn't want this.
Astrid is a child.
She doesn't know what
- She's 16.
- Exactly. She's a child!
And she's my child.
She is, she's your daughter.
And you obviously care for her
very much.
You must have been absolutely furious,
when you found out that Anton was
helping her try and get to Tallinn,
to see her mother.
Anton was wrong to try and
manipulate Astrid the way he did.
Anton didn't manipulate her.
Astrid wanted to get away from you.
That's not true.
What happened when Anton turned up
at the lab that night?
- Nothing. I sent him away.
- What did he want?
He was emotional. And, erm,
he wanted to stop Astrid's sessions.
What, and you wouldn't allow that?
Of course not, cos that could harm her.
Did the argument get physical?
Yes, I hit him. And he hit me,
and it was all over in a matter
of minutes, and then he left.
Mmm. Did you go after him?
No.
What about Annie Bett?
Did you argue with her that night?
- Why would I argue with Annie Bett?
- Because she was helping Anton.
I didn't argue with Annie Bett.
I didn't see Annie Bett.
I only saw Anton.
What did you do the rest of the time?
I sat in my car.
For an hour?
The fight with Anton upset me.
And I didn't want Astrid to see me
in that state.
So, yes, I just sat in my car.
Astrid said that you'd been crying.
Yes.
Why?
Because I guess I realised that
..that maybe I can't save her.
Crying in the front seat of your SUV?
As an alibi, it's original.
It's bollocks.
Yeah, well, until we have something
to prove otherwise,
we're stuck with it.
Hey, get anything from the search
at the Jakobsons'?
Nothing so far. They're still at it.
But they did find this.
What's this I'm looking at?
We downloaded the data
from the Jakobson car.
That there is the GPS information
from Friday night.
And this is all there is?
He drove from the house to the lab
and then back to the house again.
Got home at 2:15am.
So he didn't go to Wethersta?
Not according to his car.
Could he have hacked the system?
There's no sign of that.
So he really was crying in his car.
Which means
he was nowhere near the croft.
Which means he can't have done it.
Ruth, you got a call from Ian Bett.
- He needs you to call him back.
- OK.
What's the plan with Jakobson?
Er, Harry's still compiling charges.
We'll need to hang on to him for
a few hours, then he'll get bail.
- He wants to talk to his daughter.
- Ah.
Well, she's still at the hospital.
Do you want to see
if you can set up a call, Billy?
OK.
When was this?
This afternoon. Caught him
out the back hanging around Noah.
I'm so sorry. That must have been
really scary for him.
Look, don't worry,
I'm going to sort it out, OK?
All right, bye-bye.
[HE SIGHS]
[RINGING TONE]
- Hi.
- Rob, it's
- This is Harding. Leave a message.
- [SHE GROANS]
Hi, Rob.
It's Ruth.
Ruth Calder.
[SHE CLEARS THROAT]
I'm not sure if you're still
speaking to me or not, but, er,
I need to speak to you
about one of your lot.
It's a guy called Euan Rossi.
So, if you could call me back.
Please.
- What's troubling you?
- I'm just trying to work out
why Annie agreed to help Bergen
smuggle Astrid off the Isles.
Well, if she thought
Astrid was in danger?
Yeah, but why not come to us
about it? Why take such a risk?
What's that?
Oh, I pulled the admission records
from the night Bergen took Astrid
into the hospital.
Oh, yeah. Why's that?
It was the 5th of May.
The day before Annie made
the first call to Bergen.
See, I reckon this might be
where they first met.
According to the records,
Annie was in A&E at the same time.
Why was Annie admitted?
She wasn't. She brought someone in.
Tosh?
Have you got a minute, Tara?
Yeah.
Frank's just on his way home.
I'm having a wee wine while I wait.
- Can I get you a glass?
- Oh, no. Thanks, I'm good.
Is everything OK?
Yeah.
Yeah. It's just
Something's come up, in the case.
It's a small thing,
but I have to follow up on it.
OK.
We've been trying to understand
Annie's relationship with Anton Bergen.
We think we now know where and when
they first met.
And we believe
that it was the 5th of May
..at Lerwick Hospital.
Obviously we looked
at the admissions for that night.
Jesus Christ! I'm so sorry.
Is this really your job, Tosh?
Rooting around in people's lives?
Tara, I don't mean to invade
your privacy,
and if you don't want to tell me
the details
Sounds like you know them already.
What did you do? Read my medical
records? Interrogate the doctors?
There's a bin over there
if you want to rake through it.
The only thing I'm interested in
is Annie.
I know that she took you in.
I need to know if you saw a young
girl, Swedish, at A&E that night.
She'd have been there with Bergen.
I was losing my baby, Tosh.
I know.
How are you feeling?
Yeah, fine.
Wasn't the first time, so
Well Frank, how's he?
Frank doesn't know.
I didn't tell him I was pregnant.
I didn't want to get his hopes up again.
I really didn't mean to upset you, Tara.
I'm just trying to find out
how this happened to Annie.
I should go.
This girl,
she was strawberry blonde, right?
Yeah, I remember her now.
She was a few cubicles down from me.
She did have a guy with her.
Foreign too. Are you saying
that was Anton Bergen?
Well, I didn't know that.
And I didn't see Annie speak to him.
But later, when we were leaving,
the girl's parents were outside
in the corridor.
And Annie seemed a bit spooked.
Hey.
Sorry I'm so late.
What's wrong?
- [MESSAGE SENDS]
- What the hell's happened with Tara?
Frank's been messaging.
Says you came round,
now Tara's really upset,
and she won't tell him anything.
Look, it's work, Donnie.
I can't talk about it, OK?
No.
No, it's not OK.
You can't keep using that as an excuse
to go around pissing everyone off.
These are our friends, Tosh.
We know these people.
No, but that's it, though.
We DON'T know them.
Not really.
Look, we THINK we do.
We go for drinks.
And we meet for coffee.
We tell each other things,
but not everything.
Because everyone has something.
OK? Something they don't want
anyone else to know.
And normally that is fine. Cos
we're all allowed to have secrets.
But when someone is killed,
it all comes out.
And whether you like it or not,
it is my job to get it out.
Well, to be honest, Tosh,
I don't know how you can do your job.
I am trying to find out
who killed Annie,
and I won't apologise for that.
[DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]

Rossi.
[PHONE RINGS]
DI Calder.
Ruth?
It's Rob. Rob Harding.
Oh.
- Well, you took your time.
- CHUCKLES: Sorry. Er
I wasn't expecting to hear from you.
How are you?
I'm fine.
- I'm in Shetland.
- You went home?
I did.
Where's the drop-off?
Er, listen, your message. Euan Rossi,
why were you asking about him?
Yeah. We're investigating the murder
of a woman called Annie Bett.
She worked with Rossi as an analyst.
Sorry, how do you know that?
Rossi told me.
When?
- Day after he got here.
- Wait, Rossi's in Shetland?
Yeah. For the last three days.
Ruth, you need to bring him in.
I don't know why he's there
or what he's doing,
but Rossi's dangerous.
You need to get him.
Now.
