Beast

Good, that was lovely. Moll, I need more from you.

Can we take it from the beginning?

And...

I was obsessed by killer whales when I was a kid.

They always seem to be smiling.

You know, they travel a hundred miles a day in the ocean.

But in captivity, their sound waves bounce off the walls

and they become deaf and dumb.

Some even go insane.

I read about one whale that broke all its teeth

trying to break free.

Just got too much for him.

He didn't want to smile any more.

I'll have a pint of Heineken and a glass of red wine, please.

And a packet of crisps.

- Hey, Cliff. - Hey.

- How are you? - Yeah, good. You?

- Yeah, no, I'm good, I'm good. - Good.

Just, hang on a sec.

Cliff, you didn't have to, honestly.

- Please. Happy birthday. - Thank you.

They give you one of these when you enter the force.

Thank you.

That's fine.

It just goes,

- just anywhere. Yeah, anywhere. - Anywhere, yeah.

- I think I'm... - Just, Sorry. May I?

It's okay.

You're not really supposed to give these away

but you can keep a secret.

- Hiya! - Better say hi.

No, of course.

- Thanks for coming. - Not at all.

- I'll see you later. - Yeah.

And help yourself to more drinks

and there's plenty of food as well if you want anything to eat.

Okay. Sure.

Who gave you that?

Oh, um, Clifford.

How sweet.

I'd like to make a toast

to someone very special,

someone we can all rely on. Happy birthday, sis.

- To Moll! - To Moll!

And, while she's got you lot to be quiet for the moment...

We would like to take this opportunity to announce

Spence and me are expecting twins.

Get the champagne, sweetheart, there's a case in the garage.

There's champagne?

Don't pull that face. She's having twins, Moll.

Come on! Over here!

What are you doing?

I frightened you.

Hang on, I've got to go home.

Oh, come on, I spent the whole night buying you drinks.

I know, I... I've got to get home and look after my dad.

He'll be all right. Just a little kiss.

Don't do that, please.

Why?

Don't.

Wait, I... I need to get home.

I know you want it.

Don't... Don't.

- Just a little kiss. - Don't... Don't.

- I don't... I need to get home. - Just a little kiss, come on.

- Don't! Please don't do that! - Hey!

What are you doing, you freak?

What?

Do you know how to use that?

You're wounded.

Well, I can fix that.

Get in.

No, thanks.

Doesn't hurt?

You have blood on your hands.

Isn't that illegal?

Can you keep a secret?

Then, I'm okay.

Just missing a section on humans.

Shit.

You don't have to tell them what happened.

- You sure? - Yeah. I don't want any trouble.

- Morning, officer. - Seat belt.

Yeah, sorry. We just got on the road.

Up early.

You mean late, we've been at the Wipeout.

The, um, the DJ was great, we couldn't stop dancing.

You can breathalyse me.

Incidentally, I'm an amazing dancer.

Really?

And what do you do?

Work with my hands, I'm a craftsman.

You?

I'm a historical guide.

Not the granny wagons?

It's only temporary.

Nice place.

Yeah, it's... It's my parents'.

I'm just helping look after my dad.

Someone's birthday?

Mine, actually.

- Happy birthday. - Thank you.

Thanks for the, um, lift.

You're safe.

I was worried sick. What happened?

- I, um... - Come here.

I won't bite.

I felt funny, so I went for a walk.

And I fell asleep on the beach.

- I thought we were best friends. - We are.

Then don't lie to me.

I just wanted to go dancing.

I put all that effort into making it special

and you wanted to go dancing.

I'm so sorry.

Mum, it was irresponsible and thoughtless.

You've come so far, Moll.

I worry when things like this happen.

It won't happen again, I promise.

It was your birthday.

We'll let this one go.

Eat your cake.

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen

and welcome to Tantivy Blue Coach Tours.

My name's Moll and I will be your hostess for the day.

Um, just to give you a rough outline

of what you can expect from today's travels.

Firstly, um, we will...

What are you doing here?

Just wanted to check how you're doing.

Yeah, I'm... I'm good, thank you.

Here, birthday present.

Thank you.

It's my... My mum.

- Hilary. - Pascal Renouf.

How do you do?

Your dad needs you, sweetheart.

Have a pleasant evening.

- Who was that? - No one. Just...

He gave me a lift the other night.

Could smell him a mile off.

My name's Moll.

What are you doing Saturday?

There's a few odd jobs around the house.

A bench needs fixing and some patio slabs.

And you said you were good with your hands.

Okay, Saturday.

What homework have you got tonight, Jade?

Usual. Bit of maths, bit of science.

Hey.

- How was the game? - Cock-up. Lost 50 quid.

Mum, can Jade stay here tonight?

I've got a friend coming over.

I've got a fête meeting, sweetheart.

Moll can look after her.

Everyone is hoping for the best.

But there is of course speculation that Melissa's disappearance

is connected to the unsolved abduction and murder

of three other girls over the past four years.

It's been 22 hours since I saw Melissa tucked up in bed.

And if anyone can help us to find her...

We miss her very, very much.

- Harrison, turn it off. - We miss...

How was the game?

It was great.

Whose house is this?

It's ours, Dad.

That's everything.

Thanks.

You've got, um...

You want to go for a ride?

Come on.

I got you.

You're unbelievable, Moll.

What? What did I do?

- Oh, come on! - Harry.

You left Jade alone.

With Dad.

He doesn't know what the fuck's going on!

- Well, you were supposed to be here. - Moll.

Sit down.

Where were you?

I just needed to pop into work.

You're lying again.

You went off with that Pascal, didn't you?

We just went for a drive.

Sophie Healey's daughter is missing

there's a killer stalking this island

and you abandoned her because you wanted to go for a drive?

She's family!

Families are supposed to look after each other.

But the only thing that seems to matter in your world is you.

That's not true.

So you must be plain stupid. Is that it?

You don't know the difference between right and wrong?

I know the difference.

So you're selfish?

Are you going to apologise to your niece?

- It's okay... - Be quiet!

I'm sorry.
