What are those?
- We're about to break and enter. - That's the best you could find?
Excuse me, real men wear floral when trespassing.
What do you think we'll find in there?
Well, we know Jamie came here before he disappeared.
With the knife.
And that padlock.
On the door. It looks new.
Someone wants to keep people out.
Jamie might be in there.
Alive?
- What did you do with that knife? - It's still in the sandwich bag.
In case we need to turn it in to the police.
Chain of custody.
I've been fired, but that's not how a chain of custody works.
You removed it from the scene.
I'm not sure it can be used as evidence anymore.
Connor.
Freshly disowned In some frozen devotion
No more alone or myself could I be
Lurched like a stray To the arms that were open
No shortage of sordid No protest from me
With her sweetened breath And her tongue so mean
She's the angel of small death And the codeine scene…
Are we squad goals?
No, no, we're the backup dancers. Pip's the lead singer.
But one of us is missing.
Where is Cara?
She couldn't make it.
She missed two days of school now. Something happen between you two?
No, we're fine.
Don't cut my finger off.
What's the magic word?
- Don't cut my finger off, please? - Yeah.
Ah.
Are those drugs?
They're empty.
Look.
Is that a burner phone? Is someone using this place as a drug den?
It doesn't look like they're coming to use.
They might just be selling or using it as a handover spot.
Whoever this is…
did they do something to Jamie?
I don't know.
He came here with a knife.
Then he… disappeared.
We'll keep looking, okay?
Where's Connor?
Boo!
There's a door right there, Pip.
You make things harder for yourself sometimes.
- What are we looking for, anyway? - A sign… that Jamie was here.
Of what happened to him.
- Whoa. - What are you doing with that, Pip?
- Um, I think we should talk about this. - Shh! It's for protection.
Jamie brought this knife.
- I thought we should too just in case. - Now your prints are all over it.
Someone's here.
"So Long, Silver."
Jamie.
Hello.
In here.
- I thought you was here. The lock-- - Where's the money?
- Here. - You counted it?
Of course.
You better not be short this time, Howie.
Howie Bowers?
Some fucker has already skipped out on me this week. Owes me 900.
Nine hundred?
Fuck.
Where did he get this cash from?
Nine hundred.
We need to find out who the other guy is.
Pip!
Did you hear that?
Nah, it's an old building, man. It makes noises.
Here's the gear. Two weeks, Howie, you got it?
- Yeah, of course. - Good.
He's leaving.
We can't lose him.
Hi, Howie! Bye, Howie!
What? What the fuck are you up to now?
Go, go, go!
- Go, Pip! - I'm going, I'm going!
I can't read the number plate.
Get closer!
- Pip, stop! You're going too fast! - Not fast enough!
Pip, stop! It's dangerous!
We must find out who he is. He knows what happened to Jamie!
Please!
We lost him.
Is everyone all right?
Connor!
- You're hurt! - I'm fine.
Why didn't you stop? You almost killed us. And for nothing.
It's not for nothing. I saw the car. It was a white BMW.
About half of Little Kilton drive a white BMW.
It doesn't exactly narrow it down, does it?
Except one of our persons of interest drives a white BMW.
- Nat Da Silva's new boyfriend. - Luke Eaton.
It was him.
I thought I knew his voice.
Couldn't you have realized that before?
- Sorry, I don't know why I-- - I do.
You're losing control, Pip. First bringing the knife, and now you--
Will you both just shut up?
It's not Pip's fault.
It's Jamie's.
I mean, what was he thinking getting mixed up with people like this?
Breaking into houses, stealing things. None of it makes sense.
I don't even know who he is anymore.
We're never gonna find him.
Ravi, I'm so sorry.
I know you are.
I know how much you care, but look at what you're doing to yourself.
- I'll go after him. - Bring him back.
We need to speak to Luke Eaton now.
No, Pip. No more tonight. Just give him a moment.
Give yourself one too.
Please.
Achilles, Achilles Achilles, come down
Won't you get up off Get up off the roof?
You're scarin' us and all of us
Some of us love you
Achilles, it's not much But there's proof
You crazy-ass cosmonaut Remember your virtue
Redemption lies plainly in truth
Just humour us, Achilles Achilles, come down
Won't you get up off Get up off the roof?
I thought you were Sal for a second.
You keep his name out of your mouth.
Do you want to hit me?
Well, go on. I'll let you have a free shot.
I'm not like you.
God, you're boring.
- You're here to watch the show. - I'm here to watch you go down.
If you say so.
Max, it's time.
The judge has called us back in.
But you said it wouldn't happen until this afternoon.
They've only been in for 40 minutes.
They've reached a verdict.
Fuck.
What do you want? I was asleep.
Is Luke in?
- I need to see him. - No.
- His car's here. - Why do you want to speak to him?
Did Jamie ever mention someone called Layla Mead to you?
- What are you talking about? - Nat, Jamie's been missing nearly a week.
Please help me.
Not for me. I know you hate me, and I understand why.
But for Jamie.
You two were so close.
Help me help him.
How?
I think Luke had something to do with Jamie's disappearance.
Jamie borrowed 900 pounds from him, and I know Luke doesn't have a normal job.
When he said he was home all night last Friday, you reacted.
Was he lying?
Are you scared of him?
What's wrong with you? These are people's real lives.
You can't fuck about with them for your entertainment.
Leave me alone, Pip. I mean it.
Will the foreperson please stand.
Have you reached a unanimous verdict on each count?
We have.
On count one, how do you find the defendant?
Guilty or not guilty?
We, the jury, find the defendant…
Ravi, hey.
So, I spoke to Nat.
Well, not really.
- She slammed the door. - Pip.
- And I asked about Luke. - Pip.
I think you're right. She's definitely scared of him.
Pip, I need you to stop talking.
- What? - The jury just returned their verdict.
Already?
And?
Ravi?
Ravi, don't say it.
Ravi, please don't say it. Please.
They found him not guilty. On all charges.
I'm so sorry. I still can't believe it.
This isn't fair. It's not right. Are you okay? Pip?
Oh, God.
Nat.
Ravi, I have to go back.
- I have to make sure she's okay. - Pip, I--
What is it?
Is it Jamie?
- Have you heard the verdict? - What?
No, no one's called me yet.
No.
No. No…
I'm so sorry.
So sorry.
This can't be real.
Who did this?
Where were you two yesterday?
For the search party?
- I thought you wouldn't want us there. - I was talking to Lauren.
Oh, so now you want to talk to me.
- It's always on your terms, isn't it, Pip? - What's that on your locker?
You, uh, seem to love drawing attention to yourself, don't you?
I didn't write that.
- Sure. - You want to say something?
- Do you? - No, don't need to.
You being happy a rapist walked free says it all.
He is innocent, and you're wrong, so why don't you just get over it?
- Shut the fuck up, Robin. - Don't tell him to shut up, Connor.
No, it's okay.
Don't be embarrassed, Pip.
Maybe you'll just learn to leave things alone in the future.
Actually, you probably won't.
You just love to be the center of it all, don't you?
No matter who you hurt, or whose lives you ruin.
Pip?
Can I speak to you for a second?
Uh oh.
Busted.
- Suspended? - For three days?
Oh, I can't believe this.
- What about Cambridge, Pip? - I don't care.
Yes, yes, you do care!
- This isn't like you. - What if this is exactly like me?
Don't talk to your mother like that. You haven't even said sorry yet.
I'm not sorry!
Is Max Hastings sorry? Then I'm not either.
Robin deserved it! You're supposed to be on my side!
Pip, sweetheart.
Sweetheart, we are.
We are on your side, but you are going down a dark path.
I don't know how to be a good mum to you now.
First I'm too much, then not enough. I don't know how to get it right.
- I know you're not my little girl anymore. - That's what you're worried about?
Me growing up?
A serial rapist walked free today.
Jamie's been missing six days and might be dead!
Both of those things are my fault! That's why you should be upset!
- Pip, it's not your fault. - No, you said we would win!
You said we had the truth on our side, and I believed you!
You were wrong, Dad, because the truth doesn't matter.
It never did!
See if you can talk some sense into her.
Leanne, calm down. That's not going to help.
Your parents are worried about you.
I don't need their worry.
I'm worried about you.
I don't need yours either.
Will you get up and talk to me?
Did he smile?
Did he smile when they said not guilty?
- Why does it matter? - It matters!
I'm sorry.
If there's anything I could have done to change it, I would have.
But there's nothing we can do.
And you getting suspended because you're so angry about Max?
It's not worth it.
So he just wins?
Why are you doing this?
I don't know.
- Pip… - What's the point?
What was the point in anything we did last year?
I just hurt the people I care about.
I ruined their lives.
I swore to Becca that Max would go down.
I swore to her, Ravi. I'm a liar.
What if I can't find Jamie?
What if I'm not good enough? What if he's dead?
I have to, Ravi. I have to.
We're going to find Jamie, okay? I swear to you.
You're not on your own on this. Stop pushing people away.
Me, Cara.
Just talk to me, please.
I just want to be alone.
Fine.
Let me know when you remember who I am.
Who you are.
I love you.
- Connor, I need some-- - Turn on the news. Now!
A dog walker discovered the body earlier this afternoon in the woods
beside the A413 between Little Kilton and Amersham.
Officers are still at the scene.
The deceased is as yet unidentified
but has been described as a white male in his early 20s.
The cause of death is unconfirmed.
A spokesperson for Thames Valley Police gave a statement…
Connor, I…
My mum's talking to the police to see if she can go identify the body.
As you can see behind me…
It's Jamie, isn't it?
Connor, I'm so sorry.
He's dead, Pip.
It's my fault.
Last night I said we'd never find him, and now we never will.
It's not your fault.
It's my fault. You should have never come to me for help.
Look, my mum's calling me. I-I have to go.
Until it disappeared
From me, from you
And now
It's time
To leave
And turn to dust
The deceased is as yet…
You ready? We better get going.
We don't want them giving away our table.
Rosie, let's go!
Where is my…
Oh, come on. It's your favorite restaurant.
- This was your idea, remember? - I'm not coming.
- And how would that look, Mum? - I don't care.
I'm not afraid of you.
Put your coat on, hm?
Come on. Epps is already at the restaurant.
Rosie, get your coat.
It's going to storm soon.
You'd better get inside.
I can't go home.
Not yet.
Okay. Um…
Do you want to just… sit down for a minute?
Get out the street?
So…
Are you okay?
I've had a bad day.
You want to talk about it?
I don't really know how. I've never been good at that.
You can try. It's only me. It won't matter.
They found a body.
It might be Jamie.
He's dead, and I wasted so much time chasing my own stupid hunches.
Thinking I was good at this.
Maybe I was just selfish.
And maybe I only wanted to find him because of Max Hastings' trial.
They found him not guilty today.
Shit.
I'm sorry, Pip.
You tried.
You tried your hardest.
For what it's worth,
the justice system is supposed to tell us what's right and wrong, who's good or bad.
Sometimes it gets it wrong almost as much as it gets it right.
I had to learn that too, and it's hard to accept.
What do you do when the things that are supposed to protect you fail you?
I'm just so naive.
There's no such thing as justice.
Oh, man.
Justice exists.
Maybe not the kind that happens in police stations or courtrooms,
but it does exist.
If you want it enough.
For Jamie. For Max.
Max walked free. He won.
Only if you let him.
You're right.
See?
Talking about it helps.
Thank you, Charlie.
I have to go do something.
Good luck.
- To truth. - To truth.
We're celebrating, Mum.
We're not celebrating that much.
Oi, not you as well.
Everyone, say, "Cheese."
- Cheese! - Cheese!
Smile, Mum.
The fuck is your problem?
My problem is you raped Becca Bell at a Calamity party in March 2019
with the drugs that Andie sold to you, didn't you?
Yeah, Becca and I slept together, but it was consensual.
She never once said no.
It's hard to say no when you can't speak!
Say that again, I didn't quite hear ya Messed with the wrong bitch
Wow, you're so fucking stupid
Been a while Since my head was this polluted
Lucky I know my own worth
So ya, so ya wanna fight me Are you big enough?
Kick the back of my knee Are you serious?
You keep on trying but
I like your blood on my teeth Just a little too much
So bite me, slap me 'round the face
Now I'm twisting your arm 'Til I hear it break
I get stronger every day, yeah
Little girl gone Got a gun from a gangster
Run little girl Run little girl, bang, ha
Say that again, I didn't quite hear ya
Messed with the wrong bitch In the wrong era
I've been at work And I got my badge of honor
Honey, I've changed so much Since I last saw ya
Hands off my hair, how very dare you
Ding, ding Hold my earrings for my debut
'Cause I pack a punch Backed into a corner
Come at me Don't tell me I didn't warn ya
Can you meet me?
I'm ready to talk, finally.
It's just a shame, 'cause I definitely ordered medium rare.
Call the police.
Robin, call the police.
Uh…
My problem…
Max, you'll want to see this.
…you raped Becca Bell at a Calamity party in March 2019
with the drugs that Andie sold to you, didn't you?
Yeah, Becca and I slept together, but it was con--
- Nice night. - I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry I took it out on you. - It's okay.
No.
It's not okay.
I had no right to be angry with you.
I think I was just angry with myself, mostly.
And it's not just about everything that happened today.
I mean, it is, but…
I think it's also the guilt.
Blaming myself for everything that happened last year.
Everyone that got hurt.
Cara, Barney…
And maybe I'm selfish.
And maybe I'm a liar.
And maybe I'm reckless, and I'm obsessive.
And maybe I'm okay with doing bad things if I'm the one doing them.
And maybe that makes me a hypocrite, and…
Maybe I just bottle everything up inside until it eats me alive.
And, yeah, maybe the podcast really was just for me.
To talk about how I felt. Is that so bad?
I'm just tired of feeling guilty about things that aren't my fault.
Because it's not my fault that Elliot Ward killed Sal.
It's not my fault that Becca let Andie die.
It's not my fault I couldn't find Jamie.
Or that Max walked free.
Maybe I'm not a good person, but I don't think I'm the worst either.
Maybe there's no way to be good.
Not in a world run by people like Max Hastings.
I'm just…
I'm so sick of pretending, because this is who I am.
And I hope that you're okay with that.
Because I love you too.
I know exactly who you are. And I always have done.
And I love her.
I love you.
I said it first, by the way.
Yeah, in anger.
I said it a week ago, in my speech.
What is that?
Blood? Paint?
I'll tell you later.
When you touch me Yeah, I feel butterflies
I'm gonna love you till the day I die
When you cut me You cut me like a knife
Are you sure?
I wanna tell you, but I'm terrified
Oh, what a perfect day
Why do you have to go away?
Now the sky's so grey
Pip!
What?
It's not Jamie.
Mum went to identify the body this morning, and it's not Jamie.
- It's not him. - It's not Jamie.
I thought we lost him.
It's not him, Pip. There's still time.
Okay.
I will find him, Connor.
I'm going to go speak to Luke Eaton now. I can do this. I promise.
Go get him, trouble.
You're coming too, trouble.
How scary did you say this guy was again?
Pretty scary.
Great. Fantastic news.
Pip, can I talk to you?
I'm… I'm moving out.
Back in with Dan.
Apparently, Max's house got vandalized last night.
Dan told me.
Mm.
- Really? - They don't know who.
- No witnesses. - Well, that's a shame.
I think I was wrong about you.
- Maybe we aren't so different. - Maybe not.
I want to help. With Jamie.
He promised me he'd be at court, but…
I didn't know it was Max who raped me until I told Jamie about it last year.
When I told him I was in that room, with the red sofa…
Jamie realized something.
He tried to get into that room that night, and Max came out.
He blocked the way, led him off and said there was no one in there.
But…
I was in there.
That's why Jamie was so important to the case. He saw Max.
Nat, I'm so sorry.
I was angry yesterday that Jamie let me down,
but Jamie wouldn't do that.
Not to me.
I know that he, um…
God. It's funny, isn't it?
You only realize how much you care about someone when you lose them.
You were right about Luke.
He lied when he said he was home the night Jamie disappeared.
I came home, and he wasn't there.
I looked through his phone last night.
He's been texting that girl you mentioned, Layla Mead.
They've been speaking for weeks.
They agreed to meet for the first time last Friday.
That's where Luke really was.
I should go before Luke realizes.
Please… find Jamie.
I need him.
So Luke knows who Layla is.
Layla knows what happened to Jamie.
How should we go…
Why do you never let us practice?
Ugh. Not interested.
What if I give you 900 pounds?
- And where did you get that? - From Jamie.
From you.
He doesn't owe you anymore.
Only… if you answer my questions.
What did Jamie borrow the money for?
I don't ask questions.
I don't really care.
Can't relate.
Is she always this funny?
Hilarious.
You've been talking to someone called Layla Mead.
I know you went to meet her last Friday.
Why are you laughing?
- Yeah, no, I did meet Layla. - Do you know who she really is?
Yes, I do.
Who is she?
Layla Mead…
is Jamie.
- What? - It can't be.
That's not possible. Jamie was talking to Layla too.
I don't know what to tell you. Layla asked to meet me.
When I turned up, Jamie Reynolds was waiting for me.
- When? - Around midnight.
Just before Max saw Jamie.
Did he say anything to you?
Mm…
Just one thing.
Child brown…
Um…
Child brown, uh…
sick?
Child… brown sick?
Yeah.
He was just standing there, waiting.
I didn't know what the fuck was going on. Then he ran, so I chased him for a bit.
Little prick. Tricking me like that.
It's probably because Nat chose me.
Anyway, stealing 900 from me and disappearing,
he'd better be dead.
Luke, how old are you?
29. Why?
Actually… I don't care.
That's all 900 quid's gonna get you.
"Child brown sick."
What does that mean?
I don't know, but we heard Jamie talking about a child from the Calamity footage.
Why did Jamie turn up when Layla asked to meet Luke?
Maybe Layla sent him?
"Child brown sick."
Do not click on images. I beg you.
It says, "Do you mean child br…" Wait.
Child Brunswick?
Maybe Luke misheard Jamie. Maybe he said Child Brunswick.
Oh my God. Is this it?
- How old would Child Brunswick be now? - Wait, what's Child Brunswick?
You didn't watch the documentary I recommended on Scott Brunswick?
What did Scott Brunswick do?
Between 2005 and 2006,
the town of Margate, Kent, was struck by a string of horrific child murders.
In the space of just 13 months, six children disappeared.
Jessica Moore, age 11.
Evie French, age 10.
Edward Harrison, age 9.
Patrick Evans, age 9.
Megan Keller, age 10.
And Emily Nowell, age 8.
The remains of all the victims…
This is horrible.
As part of our investigations, we interviewed Brunswick's son,
who was 10 years old at the time of the final murder.
And it became evident that Brunswick had used his son
in the committing of these murders.
So what did Child Brunswick actually do?
He chose the victims.
Lured them away on their own to where Scott was waiting in his van.
Public places, like parks or swimming pools.
Those kids trusted him.
Followed him because he was a kid too.
But Child Brunswick didn't have a choice.
His dad forced him.
The trial of Scott Brunswick began in September 2008.
And the son, nicknamed Child Brunswick by the press, now 13,
gave testimony that was essential in securing a guilty verdict.
Scott Brunswick was sentenced to life imprisonment.
Another inmate killed Scott.
For his role in…
Just a few weeks into his sentence.
…Brunswick was charged by a juvenile court to serve a five-year custodial sentence.
When he turned 18,
a parole board decision recommended his release on a lifelong license.
Child Brunswick was given a new identity under a witness protection-style program,
and a worldwide injunction was imposed on the media.
The Home Secretary stated that this was because there was a risk
of vigilante-type retaliation against this individual
if his real identity became known.
His birthday is sometime between March and September.
Which means Child Brunswick would now be…
29.
He'd be 29 years old or recently 30.
That's what Layla wants, isn't it? She's looking for Child Brunswick.
For some reason, she thinks he's here in Little Kilton,
living under a new identity.
What has any of this got to do with Jamie? He's not Child Brunswick.
Pip has a theory.
What if, after working out that Jamie couldn't be Child Brunswick
because he lied about his age,
Layla somehow recruited him into helping her search?
That would explain some of Jamie's strange behavior.
Getting the 900 cash and leaving it for Layla to find.
She didn't even pick it up, which means she didn't even want the money.
She just wanted to see what she could get Jamie to do for her.
But why? What does Layla want to do with Child Brunswick?
I think she wants him dead.
- Lots of people want Child Brunswick dead. - Jamie would never get mixed up in that.
Connor, he took a knife and confronted Luke Eaton.
- Luke isn't Child Brunswick. - Yeah, well--
Neither are Adam Clark or Dan Da Silva.
Right.
Layla figured out they couldn't be Child Brunswick,
a teacher and a police officer.
I think Layla narrowed her suspect list down to two names.
Luke and someone else.
She set up another meeting that night, outside the abandoned manor.
And whoever Jamie confronted next…
Actually is Child Brunswick.
So if we figure out who Child Brunswick is…
We find Jamie.
Right.
Where do we start?
This isn't easy when there's an injunction on publishing anything about him.
Okay, I've found something.
There was a rumor in 2017.
Child Brunswick was living in Devon.
He revealed his identity to his girlfriend.
She told people, and he had to be moved, given another new identity.
Write that down.
Ugh. Neater than that, Connor!
Oh, here's something.
A woman was arrested in Liverpool, 2020,
for publishing photos claiming they were Child Brunswick as an adult.
The claim was false, but the police were concerned
for the safety of the wrongly identified man.
Write it down then.
There's nothing to write down. It wasn't him.
You can't have the pen if you're gonna be like that.
Oh, here, someone's made a list of possible sightings.
There's one from Dartford last year.
Little Kilton!
Someone says they know Child Brunswick's living in Little Kilton.
They spelled Kilton wrong. That's why it didn't come up.
"My mate's cousin is in Kingsgrove Prison."
"Apparently, his new cellmate is from that town."
"He said he knew exactly who Child Brunswick is."
"He said they used to be friends."
"That he makes CB pay him money to keep the secret."
Someone replied to the comment.
- Wait. - That's Layla, isn't it?
That's what's brought her to our town.
Kingsgrove Prison?
- That's where Howie Bowers was. - Let's go then.
If it's Howie Bowers, he knows exactly who Child Brunswick is.
Down the lens
Through a screen
In the belly of a beast
They will find…
I know him.
Stanley, I'm talking to you.
I'm almost 30.
Do you know who I am?
I know who Child Brunswick is.
Raise your glass
Place a gag in your mouth
And watch it slip away
Face in the worn out picture
Things change but they…
