Shetland

Thomas Malone, convicted for the murder of Lizzie Kilmuir,

was released this morning.

Why did you go after Malone in the first place?

He cried like a baby at Lizzie's funeral. It was odd.

I've withdrawn my transfer request.

I think whatever decision you made,

I'm just glad you're staying.

Drew McColl called in.

His daughter seems to be missing.

It looks like she was strangled.

He knows you're too scared to arrest him again.

He did it then, and he's done it again!

The daughter of the policeman that put you in prison

has been found dead.

I couldn't even tell you what the girl looks like.

I left. I left her.

Stop it! Stop it!

The number on the Post-it was registered to

an Andreas Hagan.

He's a health and safety officer at Forst Energy.

He's the one saying Danny was drunk

when his arm got snagged in the drive shaft.

But it's a barefaced lie.

- You're dead! - Get out my house!

Bury him!

*SHETLAND* Season 04 Episode 02 Title: "Episode 2"

Have you got that passenger manifest yet?

Hagan's confirmed as being on the first flight to Bergen

the morning after Sally's murder.

- Morning. - Morning.

How did you go on at the Taj?

Alan kicked off when someone jumped the queue.

But apart from not eating his takeaway, not much to report.

How are we doing?

Well... there's a possibility that

her murder could be connected to

an article that Sally was working on.

It looks like she was going to accuse Forst Energy

of corporate manslaughter,

so... we'd really like to speak to

their safety officer, Andreas Hagan.

But he's AWOL in Norway.

Tosh is going to talk to Forst Energy this morning

and see if we can track his movements.

You looking at Alan Killick?

He thought that Sally was having an affair, so...

Drew is not the only one who's going

to take a lot of convincing that Malone didn't do this.

It would be very neat if Thomas Malone did it,

but all three of them have a motive.

With you in a minute.

I'm a free man, eh?

Here.

Get some heat in you.

If somebody hurt you, I want to know about it.

- They think I killed Sally McColl. - Mm-hm.

And YOU do.

I'm trying to keep an open mind.

You don't make it easy, when Gail gives you a false alibi

for the night Sally died.

Maybe she thought you wouldnae believe the truth.

You've got an answer for everything, haven't you?

The reason I gave you my card

was because I wanted to help you,

cos you sat for years in a prison cell,

and the only thing you had to do to get paroled

was to admit you were guilty.

The fact you couldnae bring yourself to do that,

that means something to me. But don't push it.

They put a hood on my head

and they... threw me in the back of a van.

And when I wouldn't confess to killing Lizzie or Sally,

they knocked me out...

.. and they buried me alive.

Any idea who it was?

Mmmm. Mmm.

You going to tell me?

I'll not be pressing charges.

Billy, we're looking for a high-roof transit van

on the road between Malone's farm and Laxo last night.

- I'll get on it. - See whoever did this?

We go after them hard.

I want everybody to know that Thomas Malone is off limits.

Understood.

And get Sandy to check out the site where he was buried.

He's up at Jo Halley's place... She thinks someone's staking it out.

Right, I'll go and check it out myself.

Can you see the scratches?

Could have been a polecat, maybe?

A polecat didn't open the gate, or knock over the plant pots!

And the last couple of nights

I saw lights going up and down the old track.

I wouldn't be calling if I didn't think it was important.

Look, I understand you're concerned, after what happened to Sally,

but try not to think the worst all the time.

If you get a look at this vehicle, you let me know.

Can't you have a car parked at the bottom of the road?

Just make sure you're taking the usual security precautions.

Which you are.

Have you news?

Has there been a development?

Oh, no, nothing major, I'm afraid.

Actually, I was wondering if you could tell me

a wee bit about Alan Killick.

I don't know why you'd be looking at him, when Malone's around?

I... It's just...

The time his mother said he got home the night Sally was attacked

doesnae quite match his actual movements.

Are we talking a big difference?

Half an hour one way or the other doesn't matter.

It takes longer than that to get to Fladdabister and back.

Er, and there's just one more question, if you don't mind.

Thomas Malone's been attacked again.

So I have to ask you where were you last night?

It's just procedure, Drew. Given the fact you were involved last time.

I was here.

Was anybody else with you?

Donna Killick dropped around for a while. She's a good friend.

She left around ten.

Does that get me off your hook?

OK.

I'll leave you to it.

He knows I'm lying.

This is ridiculous.

I should have told him the truth.

Thank you.

Hey, Alan?

I need to talk to you.

I have to ask you again, what time did you get home

- the night Sally died? - I dunno.

- Whatever my mum said. - Yeah, she said wrong.

That's why I'm asking you.

I wasn't keeping my eye on the clock.

I went for a takeaway, went home, crashed out.

I hear you weren't in a great frame of mind?

You got in an argument with somebody...

.. and then didn't even eat the takeaway?

You binned it.

I didn't have that much of an appetite.

How come?

I drank too much, I suppose.

You see, a cynic might argue

that you were trying to give yourself an alibi.

I'm not finished yet.

I know you're grieving,

and I know that we all deal with that stuff in our own way.

But you have to answer my questions.

- Sorry. It's... - I know. Shall we just do this?

Yep.

Where were you last night?

I was here, on my own.

I watched a film... and then went to my bed.

Can you open the doors of that van for me?

I'm gonnae want forensics to come up and have a look at that.

In the meantime, I'll take the keys.

Hi, I'm here to see your head of Human Resources.

Appointment?

DS McIntosh. Don't need one.

Cass?

Cass! There's a face only a father could love!

What do you want?

- You need a job. - In a newspaper?

Well, I could have e-mailed you a link to a recruitment site,

but then I would have missed this vision of loveliness.

- So how're you doing, anyway? - Don't ask.

Thought for the day. You can't control how others treat you,

but you can control how you react to it.

You been at the self-help shelf again?

Come on, give it a bash.

It's not as if you're up to anything else today.

Actually, I am. Today, like every other day since my life ended,

I'm going to be stalking Edison online.

I'm sorry. Edison! I mean, what kind of name's that, anyway?

- Not helpful. - I'm sorry. Sorry!

Detective McIntosh?

Sorry for the delay. Had to have a hunt for Mr Hagan's HR file.

He, er, he normally works out of our Norway office.

That's funny. They had it the other way round.

- Is that everything? - Mr Hagan was due in Bergen yesterday,

but he didn't show. Do you know where he is?

It's possible he had some leave to take.

Could you find out?

To be honest, I don't actually have much contact with Mr Hagan.

Too busy writing his reports, I imagine.

Like the one he wrote about Danny Hamilton.

Mr Hamilton died when his arm was ripped off by a rotating driveshaft

- on one of your rigs. - Last night

Mr Hagan filed a request for five days' annual leave.

Does it say where he went?

We don't tend to ask.

Do you know Sally McColl?

She was at your company's charity ball a few weeks ago?

That's entirely possible.

Would she have met Mr Hagan there?

If he was invited, perhaps.

Now, I'm gonnae need to see the guest list.

Plus a copy of the report that Mr Hagan wrote

exonerating Forst Energy for Danny Hamilton's accident.

And a record of all the routine drug and alcohol tests

carried out on Danny Hamilton's rig in the last year.
