Hidden (Craith)

The only name we have is Karl Lewis, Mr Elis's former pupil.

Of course I worry, after what happened to that old man.

I'll shut the bastard up for good.

Say sorry first to get him back on side.

We didn't do anything. We're bigger than this.

What are you talking about?

You need to be nicer to me.

Mia?

Are you in there?

Stop playing games.

Open the fucking door!

It starts in half an hour so get changed.

Liam!

Your best jumper's on the bed.

I don't think I can.

I don't think I can. You're coming.

Mr Elis deserves that.

Mr Elis deserves that. I can't find it.

Use the quiet time to think about how you've behaved recently.

Good morning.

You're not talking to me now?

Look, I messed up last night, alright.

I had a good time, thanks for asking.

I made you a brew.

It's probably cold by now.

See you later. What time will you be home?

I'll start the car.

It's cold outside.

The window's frozen.

Rhian?

I'm coming.

We don't have all day.

We'll leave in five minutes.

Keeping busy?

We're going to Blaenau.

There's a memorial service for Geraint Elis, the old man who died.

You could come with us if you wanted.

No, thanks. I'm not religious.

Nor me.

Dad wants to show his respect.

It's terrible the way he died but it has brought people together.

Tragedies do that.

Everyone will be there, just to show we sympathize.

No, I said. OK?

OK. I just thought I'd ask.

Is he coming?

Is he coming? No.

Sorry about last night.

I don't know what Sam was thinking.

No need to apologize.

You've every right to spend time with your daughter.

No pressure or anything...

...but she'll compare every other man to you.

A terrible event...

...has brought us together today.

I'm sure I speak on behalf of everyone present...

...as I offer Rhian and Ifan...

...our deepest sympathy.

Well may you ask what words of comfort could be offered.

Look around you.

Despite the sad fact that it took a tragedy...

...to bring so many of you here...

...you're surrounded by people who wish to comfort...

...and sustain you.

As Jesus said...

..."Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

"Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.

"Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy."

Geraint Elis was shown no mercy.

Every single one of us failed to look after him...

...failed to look after one of God's children.

We'll share the burden of guilt.

This is not a time for secrets.

It's a time to speak the truth.

It's not a time to protect the guilty...

...but to find and reveal them.

Anyone who has any information...

...must perform their Christian duty...

...and share that information.

We stand alongside Rhian and Ifan...

...and with DCI Cadi John...

...and DS Owen Vaughan as they carry out their work.

It's a great shame that such an incident led to you being here.

The first hymn is 467...

..."On life's tempestuous sea I sail."

It's good to see so many here.

I hope it's some sort of comfort.

I hope it's some sort of comfort. Where were they when he was alive?

No-one spoke to him.

Even the church members turned their backs on him.

I let them.

Hopefully someone will come forward with information.

Is that the purpose of this circus?

I appreciate how hard this is for you.

You've no idea.

I'm constantly being told how I should feel or act.

Thank goodness they've no idea what I really think.

Liam, run to the shop to get gravy granules.

You'd like a Sunday roast, wouldn't you?

Can I have sweets?

Can I have sweets? OK.

Connor.

Is Lois here?

We're just about to eat.

You'd better come in.

Mam.

It's your turn to lay the table.

You can't ignore me when I'm in the same room as you.

I can try.

Can't we talk about this like adults?

When did you ever treat me like an adult?

I'm sorry if I've handled it badly.

Your father and I made a joint decision.

Did he want you to go?

No.

Something had to change.

Maybe when you're older...

Don't patronize me.

You speak for me, decide for me...

...then ask me to act like an adult.

When were you going to discuss it with me?

Why do you think I'm here?

Because Cadi failed to do your dirty work.

Cadi?

Cadi? She came to see me yesterday.

Don't pretend you don't know.

I didn't.

What did she want?

What did she want? For me to give you a break.

That's Cadi for you.

She turns up and expects everyone to listen to her.

Food's ready.

I'm not hungry.

Thanks for that.

How was the service?

How was the service? OK, thanks.

4.31.

Put it in the charity box.

Alright?

Connor. Connor.

Yes?

Yes? Can you come down a minute?

Connor.

Can we talk...

...please?

I have something to ask you and I want you to tell me the truth.

What?

Whatever the answer, whatever you say...

...we can work something out.

Mam.

I'm not just asking as a mother, but as a friend.

What do you want to know?

Just ask the fucking question.

Geraint Elis.

Do you know something about what happened to him?

Is there anything you're not telling me?

Why do you ask?

Answer the question.

I don't know anything about what happened.

Are you sure?

You're not eating, not sleeping. You've been like this for weeks.

Of course I'm fucking sure.

I can't believe this.

Drugs, then.

If it's drugs, it's OK. Just tell me.

Don't touch me.

Do you owe someone money?

Do you owe someone money? Stop it.

No-one tells you how to do this.

I'm just trying my best.

But I love you and I hate seeing you like this.

Remember how we promised to stick together?

I was only a child.

I was only a child. Never mind about that.

Speak to me. I can help you.

Look at me, Connor.

Stop!

Does it involve that girl you've been seeing?

For fuck's sake, Mam! Let it fucking go.

Hiya.

Hiya. When were you going to tell me?

Lois.

I'm sorry. I was trying to help.

You've made things worse.

You've seen her, then.

You've seen her, then. Yes, just now on my way to work.

I could've done without it before a 10-hour shift.

I thought she'd speak to me.

Well done.

As if things weren't bad enough.

El, I'm...

El, I'm... Don't.

I'm her mother.

What do you know about teenagers?

The next time you want to help, just don't.

Fuck.

PC James.

Did you speak to the youth worker?

Did you speak to the youth worker? Yes, this morning.

And?
