We Hunt Together

- (thuds) - (bottle clinks)

DI Jackson Mendy.

- You're Lola Franks, right? - Yes.

We're to partner up for this one.

Simon was killed on Sunday night.

We are treating his death as suspicious.

No, no...

No!

- (grunts) - (screams)

I want to love you.

I, I want to be in love with you. I want all those things.

Those eyes on Simon's feet...

She's drawn them before.

- Freddy, it will be fine. - You wouldn't!

- (gunshot) - I killed them all.

- Who was it? Was it Freddy, right? - I killed them all.

I killed them all.

("Common People" by William Shatner playing)

Hey. Hi, love.

Yeah, yeah, she was out like a light

the second I started running.

Well, I thought I'd do a couple more laps,

I'll be about another half an hour, is that all right?

Yeah, I love you, too.

See you in a sec.

...coochy, coochy coo.

Coochy, coochy, coochy coo.

Hey, hey, excuse me?

Do you mind, she's sleeping?

Hello?

- (thuds) - (grunts)

Coochy, coochy coo.

Coochy, coochy coo.

- (clanks) - (sizzles)

- (flutters) - (panting continues)

- What! Yeah... - (Smart over phone) DSI Smart...

Ma'am.

There has been a murder. You and Jackson are on it.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I'm on my way.

Are you ready? Drum roll, please.

- (tapping) - (exclaims)

And the crowd goes wild! Not for you.

- Why does mum go first? - Er,

the baby's going first, not me.

Exactly! The baby goes first and your mum goes second.

I thought I was second!

Ha! In your dreams.

Why aren't you answering your phone?

It's a Sunday. It's on silent.

There's been a homicide. Susan's asked for us.

Okay, fine.

But I'm bringing my pancake with me.

Wipe your sticky fingers, man.

Okay.

Right, stick that postcode into your maps, will you?

Ah, no-can-do I'm afraid.

I dumb down on the weekends.

- (sighs) - Helps me stay present.

There's nothing wrong with this little guy.

In the Kingdom of the Blind, the one-eyed man is King.

It's not the Kingdom of the Blind then, is it?

- Er, I'm just saying that if... - Yeah, I know what you're saying

but it doesn't make any sense!

If people with one eye are allowed in

you may as well make the two-eyed fella King!

Yeah? At least he'll be able to give you directions.

It's stupid!

You wanna know who the King of the Kingdom of the Blind is?

- Sure Lola. - Stevie fucking Wonder.

It is. It really is.

It's like, move over one-eyed guy. Stevie is in town.

Great. Thanks, yeah, we'll be in touch.

Ah. That was the hospital. The baby is fine.

- Thank god. - Yeah.

Well, there's no CCTV in the area,

but we think she was on her own for a few hours,

poor little thing.

Er, she was asleep though when the dog walker found her.

Wrapped up pretty warm.

- She's with the mother now? - Yeah, they're both at North Mid.

I've told her you'll be along at some point.

The report said the victim's phone was found at the scene?

Yes, it's gone to the lab.

- Thanks, Dom. - (Jackson) Thanks, Dom.

- (Dom) Sarge. - (Jackson) James O'Neil

stabbed multiple times. Young father.

Custom-built for running.

I wonder if this was his regular route?

Jackson, look at this.

The body position seems staged.

Look at the bear. And here...

His ring finger is missing.

Defence wound?

The cut looks too clean.

What are you thinking?

Whoever did this, clearly took pride in their work.

Yeah. Or pleasure.

- (door closes) - (Jackson) There you go.

I hate tea.

- (chuckles) - (door opens)

You'll come round to it. Erm...

The report on James's phone.

What is wrong with your neck?

- Nothing. Open it then. - No, seriously...

You've been scratching that thing all day. What's wrong?

Nothing. Let's just open the file please, Jackson?

Open file.

Hmm.

Hmm.

Okay.

- That's really interesting. - I swear to God, Jackson.

Er, sorry. A call was made from James's phone,

a minute after he finished the call with his wife.

To who?

It's not registered to his phone

and he's never called the number before.

Eleven o'clock at night and he's calling a number

he's never called before?

Holy fucking shit!

What is it?

Lola?

I recognise the number.

How on earth could you rec...

Lola?

Well, who did he call?

Yes!

You're an actress, aren't you?

A model then?

No, are you?

Seriously, though. I swear I know you from somewhere.

- Hello. - (buzzing)

- Hi. - (buzzing)

Origami, the art of paper folding...

But that's what Peru is like. It's beautiful but it's dangerous.

- (buzzing) - (groans)

Freddy?

Baba?

Baba!

Hi. I'm Robert.

I think you've forgotten your name badge.

If your name's Robert then why does your sticker say 'Bob'?

Oh, erm...

I thought it maybe sounded a bit more casual.

I think Robert suits you better.

I think you should stick with it.

There we go, that's much better.

So, Robert.

Why did you come here tonight?

I don't know, really. How about you?

Well obviously Robert, I came to find love, like everyone else.

Or failing that...

maybe just a partner in crime.

What do you say?

You're Frederica Lane.
