Stan Lee's Lucky Man

I want you to become a mentor for my outreach program.

A client of mine was an inmate here.

He committed suicide.

Kevin Grey?

There's someone out there who has a vast interest in all of this.

They are running it.

Tim Larson owed Lily-Anne money.

I think this is enough to prove that she ordered the hit.

Lily-Anne Lau, I'm further arresting you

on suspicion of conspiracy to murder Caleb Pursey.

You owe her.

What does that mean, Kaleem?

You're a family man.

Harry owes Lily-Anne Lau a lot of money.

I've heard that rumour.

A package for the boss.

I'll take it to Winter.

What's that?

My mother's Medicaid's file. Maria Alexandri.

You were one of the detectives on it.

Original air date: 2016, February 26 Sub by mielb

Nice place for a date.

I wanted to show you something.

An illegal cage fight.

It's a fixed fight.

What?

See the fighter in the red gloves?

His name is Flanagan.

He's gonna go down at the 3rd round.

You see the big man in the blue suit opposite?

This is his show.

He fixed this fight.

I want you... to go down and see the bookie

and put everything you have on Flanagan.

What's the point of fighting if he's gonna take him down?

I said I wanted to show you something...

what that bracelet's capable of.

Don't think Flanagan is gonna last till the 3rd round.

No, he's a good fighter.

Two years ago, he taught me how to fight.

Before he started fighting for this lot.

So you really think the bracelet

can change what's happening?

Even in sure things, there's an element of chance.

I did that?

Get your money.

Forget the money.

I did that!

Vincent Lermontov once told me that when you wear the bracelet,

there's no such thing as a coincidence.

What does that mean?

It's not just about luck.

You start making things happen around you!

Yeah, leave the money!

You wanted them to see me do that.

Why?

To send a message to the boss behind all this.

What?

The man that killed your mother?

What did you do with the money?

What?

The money you won at the Green Dragon casino

the night Freddie Lau died.

The money you won with this woman, Eve,

at a fixed roulette table.

Suri,

I didn't win at a fixed table.

You won 70,000 - two consecutive maximums,

on 2 spins of the wheel.

I burnt it.

West 13.

On duty.

OK. We're on our way.

So, what you're gonna do about that footage?

I'm still working that out.

So who is this Eve to you?

Just some girl I met at the roulette.

You need to tell me the truth, Harry.

Is that you receiving a bribe from Freddie Lau?

No. That's me winning the money for real.

How am I supposed to believe that?

If that's true, why did you burn the money then?

Because it belonged to Lau!

And that's because I thought that the roulette table was rigged.

I know that whatever the truth is,

Winter would want to nail me for it anyway.

Hey. You're the foreman?

Yeah.

Over there.

Jesus!

It hadn't been for the rats, he would never have been found.

We demolish this building on Tuesday.

You're gonna have to stop all work

until our SOCO's have everything they need.

I doubt deputy mayor will adore that!

Deputy mayor?

The St-Pancras metro point is being built here.

Well, this better be.

Press call on Tuesday.

They're coming to watch and blow this place up.

This is Luke Bangura.

18 years old. Sierra Leonean origin.

His mother came in this morning.

Said she'd listed him as a missing person 14 months ago,

but we've only just identified him from his dental records.

The building he was found in had been sealed off for the last 6 months.

I think he was moved there recently.

Just in time to be blowing up.

The decomposition has actually been interrupted.

I think he was moved from a predominantly clay soil shallow grave.

There are still samples of the soil on and inside his body.

Move to the vital organs, he's had large chunks removed-

the rats probably,

but... the left kidney is completely missing.

Completely?

I noticed some clean incisions where it used to be.

It would take some time and energy to remove a kidney.

You don't go to this kind of trouble without a good reason.

How come Luke's mother found out about the body so quickly?

Don't you know this?

According to Kelly Harrington of the Evening Reporter,

the body found is another victim of ritual killing

in the African community.

A source said the nature of the wounds

were consistent with a juju sacrifice.

What source?

We're the only people that know about this.

The leak must have come from within MIA's.

You don't know that.

Yeah, who else could prep a journalist so quickly?

Come on, let's go see Winter.

That's the deputy mayor!

Give them a minute.

Whichever way you want to spin it,

there's a crime wave happening on your watch

and the media are all over it.

The mayor is seeing the city held hostage by fear.

His city.

Triads say... in Soho and Shoreditch,

murder in Hatton Garden,

voodoo mutilations!

You see how this plays in the minds of the public?

- Yes. - I want this witchcraft murder nailed,

ASAP.

Match your point: project is a major trial for our mayor.

How much of that did you hear?

Frierson's got a loud voice. He always had.

Even back in the day, when he was made D.C.I.

Then what is it, Harry?

How does it get linked?

The so-called witchcraft killing I'm investigating

and no-one else knows about it.

You really believe the leak came from here?

It's come from somewhere!

That's sort of the expectations to be carried on your shoulders, Alistair.

How can I comfort our sister, Marianne?

Fulfil the hole in our hearts

left by her fine young son, Luke,

a student of politics,

a young man with a sharp inquiring mind

and a future that promised great things?

What did they do to you?

I'm sorry to have to ask you this,

but we believe that Luke's kidney was removed by the killer.

Can you share any light on...

why this might have happened to him?

Are you asking me if I know why someone evil butchered my son?

I'm afraid we think this was no ordinary murder.

This talk of juju sacrifice...

Juju is a colonial word the British press love to bring out when

they want to diminish our native culture.

Are the police just going to go along with the same racist stereotype?

This is just a savage murder.

It has nothing to do with who we are,

or how we live.

Please, I'm sorry.

I apologize if I've offended you. I've just...

I've a few more questions, please.

Could you tell us anything about the day that Luke went missing?

What he was doing? Where he might have been?

It was February 14th, Paradise.

We were meant to go to the cinema that night.

But first, he was going to give blood at the clinic in Peckham.

He never met me at the cinema.

I never saw him again.

He was gonna give blood?

He'd been in touch with someone from a medical aid charity,

working in Ebola zones in Sierra Leone.

African Health Union, I think.

They were interested in Luke because of his very rare blood group.

And what was his blood group?

He was h/h.

It's sometimes called Bombay blood.

Can I go?

I need to prepare the funeral.

Yes, of course! Thank you.

Bombay blood is a variant of the O blood group.

It needs a special test to be detected.

Which is why it didn't show up in the post-mortem.

Only 4 in a million people have it.
