Grace - Third Season

Wait for me there, OK?

Hi there.

Can we get one candy floss and one of these, please?

Yeah, of course.

How much is that, please?

Where did you get that?

OK, can we go over some kit, please?

That's great. And some snare, please?

That's great, thank you. Hi, Anna.

Chris, can you check the overheads, please?

Anna, can I ask you a favour?

We're running over, I'm not sure I'm going to have time

to drop Roan off at Mum and Dad's.

You want me to do it? If you don't mind.

OK. Fine. Thanks so much.

Hi. Anna's gonna drop you off at Nana's.

Be good, OK? See you tomorrow.

I'll text you when... Hi, Larry. Where are you?

We're on in an hour.

Really? Come on.

Happy birthday, darling.

Thank you.

Roy?

I had no idea you had so many.

Well, this isn't even the half of it.

This is just A to D.

I am not sure we have the space.

What are you talking about?

You've got loads of space in your spare room.

You mean... my study.

Well, we don't... We don't have to move everything tonight.

I-I haven't even had an offer on the place yet.

I am messing with you.

I want you and all your clutter.

How dare you call this clutter.

Philistine.

It's sold out, babe.

I need to get in.

They're giving their money to a thief!

I need to let them know the truth. Step away now!

Did you give it to him?

Yeah.

You guys are amazing.

So, we have some exciting news.

A promoter heard our Poison Lover EP,

and they've asked us to support Jocasta Rose on tour.

We're going to America, guys.

LA!

And we couldn't have done any of this

without our incredible manager, Larry.

- Larry? Where are you? - Come on, Larry!

Larry?

I've never been to LA.

I've only ever been to, like, Corfu, you know?

I'm so pumped. I wanna hire a big American car,

drive along the coast. I wanna be in a movie!

Do you think I can convince Larry to book us into the Chateau Marmont?

I don't think you can convince Larry

to spend a single penny more than he has to.

Pizza! I'll get it.

Right, vegan margarita's mine. OK, guys?

Don't forget to tip! Ooh!

Can you please stand back?

I hear you got here early again.

Care to comment, detective? Care to name your source?

House is rented by Gaia Lafayette. She's a singer.

She's a pretty big deal locally. Her gig tonight was sold out.

And the victim? Amber Tanaka. She's a drummer.

She also goes by the name of Tank.

She's got severe chest injuries. She's still in surgery.

So, they said they ordered pizza.

When the doorbell rang, the victim volunteered to answer the door.

Then they heard the gunshot.

By the time they reacted, the shooter was gone.

What's with the antlers?

That belongs to Gaia Lafayette. She wears it on stage.

So, she was here in the hallway when Tanaka was shot?

No. Tanaka was wearing it.

So the shooter thought they were aiming at Gaia.

When you ring a doorbell,

you'd expect the homeowner to answer the door, wouldn't you?

Miss Lafayette?

Detective Superintendent Roy Grace.

This is my colleague, DS Glenn Branson.

Is Tank OK?

We don't have any news yet, sorry.

OK.

I know this is a difficult time,

and you're anxious about your friend,

but I need to ask you some questions.

I already talked to one of your officers.

I told them I have no idea who would want to hurt Tank.

Gaia, from what I've seen,

I think you may have been the intended target this evening.

She was wearing my head dress.

Has anyone made any recent threats against you?

Either in person or online?

Not that I know of.

Larry, my manager, has his company handle all my social media. OK.

Have you noticed anyone hanging around after gigs?

Lots of people.

Fans. Friends.

How about anyone who might've made you feel...

uneasy?

Uncomfortable?

No.

This doesn't make any sense.

Why would anyone want to kill me?

We don't know yet.

But you might wanna consider laying low for a while.

At least while the investigation is in progress.

Hey, Anna, I said no visitors today.

- We need to talk to him. - OK, let me see if...

Mr Brooker? Detective Superintendent Roy Grace.

DS Glenn Branson.

Course. Yeah. Yeah, of course. Please, take a seat.

I'm in a bit of a state today, and I'm not taking meetings.

It's been a huge shock to everyone.

Any leads?

Well, we believe that Gaia may have been the intended target.

Gaia? Why?

We were hoping you might have some insight.

Yeah, of course. Anything to help.

How long have you managed Gaia?

Coming up to seven years.

And are you aware of any threats, from fans, maybe?

Well, online, yeah,

but that's just the way it goes these days, you know.

We, er... We moderate the social media of our acts

just to protect them from the worst of it.

Describe the worst to me.

Well, I don't know, anything from, er...

hating the way she looks,

to her music, to telling her to kill herself

to threats of rape and...

and murder, but it's just, you know, noise.

Did Gaia know about these threats?

No, she wouldn't step on stage if she knew.

The person who shot Amber Tanaka will be aware they made a mistake,

and there may be another attempt on Gaia's life.

OK. Well, how long till you catch him, then?

Well, you can help us with that.

We need access to Gaia's social media accounts.

We can see who made the threats.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Anna will sort that out for you.

And I would suggest that she stop performing,

for the time being at least. No.

No, no, no. Absolutely not.

Look...

I have invested a considerable amount

into developing Gaia as an artist.

This is her break-out moment. I can't afford for her to hide away.

The show must go on, right?

Yeah. Yeah, when it's costing a fortune.

Most of the properties on Gaia's street are rentals.

They all have old-fashioned entry systems,

there's no CCTV coverage at all.

Door-to-door yielded nothing.

The gunshot woke people up, but no-one saw the shooter escape.

Early ballistics suggest a 12 bore shotgun.

Have the cartridges been recovered? Yeah.

See if they can provide print or DNA evidence.

No witnesses, generic gun.

Could be professional? I don't know.

I mean, would a professional leave cartridges behind?

And fire at the wrong target?

They didn't even wait for the door to open properly.

Now that sounds like... That sounds like nerves to me.

Looks like a sheep bone. Nothing to be bothered about.

Right. Finish spreading this lot out, and go home.

OK.

Back at six sharp tomorrow. Right? Not half past like this morning.

Course.

Er, police, please.

Yeah, I-I'd like to report the discovery of human remains.

Tony. Fifth one along.

Hello. I wasn't expecting to see you here.

Nadiuska got held up on another job,

so she sent me to collect the remains.

But now I think she knew what she'd be in for.

Dead bodies I can cope with, but...

...this smell... Yeah.

Yeah, I wish I'd just sent him now.

Ha-ha... Look, the longer you talk,

the longer we're here, breathing it in, so can we, er...?

This is it?

Er, yeah. Pigs have very powerful jaws,

so they can grind through a femur, no problem.

The only thing they're not too keen on is teeth.
