Run Away

["The Only One I Know" by The Charlatans playing]

Stand by. Stand by.

- -

The police are here!

- Armed police! Put your guns down! -Take cover! Take cover!

- - Get down! Get down!

Come on! Come on!

Go! Go! Go!

-You okay? -That was a little too close.

- -Whew!

-Oh! -

Armed police! Put your guns down!

-You've been hit in your-- -Arse. Yeah, I know.

We have to get you out of here. Let's pull back.

Sergeant Joel Ravenscroft. I just wanted to thank her for saving my life.

Okay. Don't be long.

Hello, Joel. I'm Elena.

Oh!

Well, I, uh…

I thought our meeting earlier was something, but this is, um…

What can I say?

I just like to make a really strong first impression.

- -Ah!

Whatever happened here is none of my business.

I just need Paige.

I don't know where she is. She's missing.

-Why are you looking for her? -I'm trying to find a friend of hers.

Henry Thorpe.

A young man also missing for the past eight days.

Name ring a bell?

No.

I'll ask my kids, see if they've ever heard of him.

Hmm.

So go on then.

What did happen here?

Paige's, um…

Boyfriend,

Aaron,

was murdered a few days ago. Paige hasn't been seen since.

The homeless man in the video?

The one you beat up?

-Listen-- -Look, you don't have to explain.

But how was he killed?

Violently. Let's just keep it at that.

Paige couldn't have done

what was done to Aaron.

-No, but you could've. -No.

Yeah.

Maybe.

But I didn't.

Who's leading the case?

- Uh, Detective Isaac Fagbenle. -

He's a first-class prick.

Listen, I…

We've answered your questions.

How did you get this address?

The last email Henry got after he disappeared was from Paige.

She'd given him this address and then changed her mind,

telling him not to visit under any circumstances.

Does Maybridge University mean anything to you?

Why?

The IP address from Paige's email traces back to that campus.

Any idea why she would have been there a week before she vanished?

Sam.

My son.

He's a student there.

This is a really difficult thing you're going through with your wife.

I'm so sorry.

Any idea why Paige would be at your son's uni?

I just need to find her.

Oh, you got kids?

No.

No, it's, uh… just a case I'm working on.

Though I appreciate you assuming kids and not grandkids.

- -Don't have any of those either.

I did have a husband, though. He could be quite childlike.

"Did"? You divorced?

No, he died.

Jesus, I'm sorry.

Oh, it's all good.

-Less laundry to fold. -

How about you? Married long?

Twenty-three blissful years.

Oh, blissful, eh?

Yours weren't blissful?

No, they were, um…

ridiculously blissful.

Then?

I don't think I really knew him.

Not fully.

Look who's suddenly got somewhere to be.

And in a hurry.

This contradicts everything in Ingrid's statement about that night.

Plus, Dr. Stanfield claimed she never left the ward.

He's trying to protect her?

Or cover his own back.

Either way, she lied.

He's definitely hiding something. We need to speak to him in the morning.

Well, at least you'll be ready to go first thing.

What?

Some of us like being prepared.

Order is the sanity of the mind, the health of--

Oops. I've made a mess.

Sorry.

As you were.

Did she have enough time to get to Aaron's flat and kill him?

When did she get back?

They couldn't find any footage of her returning to the hospital. But…

She came back to finish her shift?

Because, look…

This is definitely her leaving the next morning.

We need to find out what time she got back.

And where she was going in the first place.

Hmm.

But not right now.

Get back in here.

Up. Up, up.

What are you doing?

I've been sleeping over for eight months, Isaac.

I know you can't perform unless everything is ship-shape.

-You missed a corner. -

Sam. Come here.

Oh, hey. You're back.

- -Sorry, who are you?

This is Elena. She's an investigator. She's gonna help us find Paige.

Sam, um…

Uh, could I have a word, please?

Alone?

Dad. What's going on?

Nothing. Could you just go with your auntie?

Just for a bit, and then we'll have a chat.

Come on. Let's get you a hot chocolate.

So…

Anything you want to tell me?

What are you talking about?

Have you seen Paige?

Sam.

Yeah.

Yeah, I saw her.

She turned up, like, a week ago.

-At my university halls. -Surprise!

After you saw her in the park.

What did she say?

Don't tell Mum and Dad about this. Okay?

She just said she needed to get away from Aaron for a bit.

-Why? -I don't know.

Maybe it was like fallout from your fight in the park. I don't know.

Did she mention any places she may have been?

Anywhere she could've gone to?

Um… Uh…

No, I don't think so.

How long did she stay with you?

How long, Sam?

-Four days. -Jesus Christ.

I thought she was doing okay. I thought she was fine.

Well, obviously she wasn't.

So what happened?

I don't know. She was really upset, and she didn't wanna talk about it.

And I wanted to cheer her up.

And so then she broke a string on her guitar.

I went to go get it fixed.

And then when I got back, she was gone,

and she had taken like half of my stuff.

Wallet and my laptop and Switch and…

She also cleared out a lot of the people in my corridor.

-How could you not tell me? -Well, I told Aunt Yvonne.

-Wha…? -Not about Paige.

I just said there had been a burglary, and it was my fault

for leaving the door unlocked.

I tried to sort it myself, but I couldn't.

And… And… And so she just helped me pay everyone back. That's it.

She wouldn't have had to have done that if you'd come to me.

I would've done if you weren't so busy

trying to break the fucking internet, punching some junkie.

-That's no excuse, Sam. -Look, she's my sister.

I promised her I wouldn't tell you.

Well, you know, promises like that go out the window

when your sister is missing.

-I was trying to protect her. -You didn't. You should've come to me.

Paige came to me, not you. Maybe you should think about why.
