The Tower

Was it Brannon who took Skye?

Yes. - You know for sure?

8:05 this morning.

Have they told you about Brannon's friend, Molly?

I haven't had a chance to look at the intel yet.

She and Brannon grew up in foster care together.

She was here when I interviewed Georgina.

He was using her to try and keep her quiet.

She'd be the first person he turned to.

So, you were in the flat?

Suit up.

I want you to look around inside.

Yeah, of course.

Give Homicide whatever space they need.

This is your domino.

What? What?

Why did you send her to the crime scene?

Jesus, Tomoe.

Yeah. No. Okay. It's fine.

I'll be there in an hour. Yes. Bye.

Are you going in? Do you want a late turn?

We're taking Anya to school. - I'm sorry.

I got a homicide on my patch and a missing kid.

I got to go.

Why are you worried about Lizzie Adama?

She knew the victim and the kid.

It's funny how she attracts trouble.

She was a mistake,

for which I have said "sorry" and will go on saying "sorry"

for as long as I need to.

It is over. I promise.

Yeah, it better be.

Because if it isn't...

Because if it isn't,

I'll damage you in ways you can't even imagine.

Hey, sweetheart.

An emergency has come up, and I have to go to work.

I am so sorry.

I love you.

All we know so far is that Brannon was out late.

He spent over an hour on a park bench, drinking,

and then he came home.

There was a fight.

Georgina's arms show defensive wounds.

He stabbed her several times.

She bled to death.

Where was Skye?

We hope she was in her room, but we don't know.

We think he sat down, and finished the bottle,

while Georgina just lay there.

Then, he washed, changed his clothes,

got Skye and the dog, and left.

I'll show you the bedroom.

Was it this untidy before?

No. The flat was immaculate.

Can I?

These are all Georgina's things.

Georgina's mom? - Yeah.

Cathy, too.

What?

Did...

Did Brannon have a suitcase or a backpack?

CCTV shows he has a small suitcase.

It was Georgina's.

She packed to leave.

Clothes for herself and Skye.

Brannon kept sky stuff, and chucked Georgina's.

Leaving -- one of the most dangerous things

a victim of domestic violence can do.

She was in danger long before she tried to leave.

We had a chance to save her.

You think I don't know that? You think I don't care?

I think you don't care enough about the law.

Instead of doing things correctly,

I think you try to be cleverer than the law.

Use the Ways and Means Act.

I bet you heard Hadley Mathews call it that.

Bit of pressure here, bit of economy with the truth there,

and suddenly the case falls apart in court.

That's not fair. And it's not how it was.

Georgina just didn't believe she had a way out.

Not until it was too late.

Fuck's sake, Sarah.

What's wrong, sir? - Where to bloody start?

You knew the team was knackered, and you picked up a new job.

I couldn't ignore it.

You could ignore it, because another team,

fresh as a proverbial daisy,

would have picked it up a minute later.

Oh, is this a sneaky attempt to get yourself a nice live job?

Because let me tell you,

you're not ready to be SIO on a murder case --

far from it.

And your own case, Tania Mills,

the one you're supposed to be running,

has now blown up a shitstorm.

What?

Ray Walker just got beaten up.

I've had his lawyer on the phone, furious.

Who was it?

Tania Mills' Father. - Oh, Christ.

Sir, I did warn you we'd be putting Walker - -

Yeah, I know you warned me.

Anyway, get yourself over there.

Sort it out. I'll take over here.

I was just about to inform next of kin.

We'll send someone else.

Go on. Go.

I need someone to deliver the death message to Georgina's mum.

You up for that?

Okay.

You've got a solid partner?

Yeah. Arif.

Normally, I'd send an FNO, but we don't have one right now,

and we need to get the news to her before the media does.

Just deliver the death message,

and stay with her till the detectives arrive.

Let them answer any questions she has.

Got it? - Yes.

Elaine, it's me.

I know. My phone told me.

Tania's dad just beat up Ray Walker.

Yep.

Want to tell me something I don't know?

Do you have results on those cameras?

What?

I actually only got them to the lab five hours ago.

Elaine, this Walker business could turn into

a major embarrassment for the Met.

Oh, sparing the Met embarrassment,

now that he's high on my list of priorities.

Please call the lab. Nag them.

You do know it's a long shot.

, lots of shoplifting,

one fraud, nothing violent.

Was on the juice big time.

Heroin.

Looks like she's off it now, though.

Nothing for the past six years.

Since Skye was born.

Does she live on her own?

Boyfriend. Neil Slattery.

A bit of a billy burglar, but nothing recent.

Okay.

What do you want? - Can we come in?

Tell me what it's about first.

It's Neil, isn't it?

I'm sorry, but we really need to come inside.

What's going on?

Kathy. I'm Lizzie. This is Arif.

Stodgy, isn't it?

Is it bad?

Yes.

I'm very sorry.

Georgina is dead.

How?

How did she die?

Detectives will be here soon.

They'll be able to tell you more.

He killed her, didn't he?

I mean, he -- he -- he was always going to.

What about Skye?

Skye is missing.

You mean he took her?

I'm sorry.

You'll have to wait for the detectives.

But we are trying to find her right now.

Oh, my baby.

She texted me late last night, six or seven times.

She wanted to come over. She said Matt was out.

She wanted to bring Skye over.

What did you say?

Oh, I didn't say anything

because I've forgotten to charge my bloody phone.

I know you're in there.

Open up. We need to talk.

Do you think he wants to hurt you, Kathy?

He probably hates me.

Control Receiving, 202.

Armed suspect trying to gain entry

to Flight 24 Martin House Decon Estate.

Two officers on scene. Request immediate backup.

Oi!

Open the door, you old bitch.

You can't let him go. I'd rather he kill me.

Can I get out that way? - No way. I'll go.

Someone's got to stay, all right?

If he gets in, you're stronger than me.

I'm just gonna go outside, and keep an eye on him.

I need to borrow this.

I'm turning my radio off, okay?

I'm gonna call you on your mobile.

Keep the line open.

Mr. Mills?

Detective Sergeant Sarah Collins.

I am leading the new inquiry

into your daughter's disappearance.

I'm not sorry for what I did.

If it stops us from investigating Walker,

will you be sorry then?
