[Simon] Something at that university changed Paige.
[Paige] Oh my God. If I ever say I wanna do something like that, please come pick me up. I’ve lost my mind.
[Simon] Says the girl who wants to join an a cappella group.
That’s much more dignified. You did a bit of improv at university, didn’t you, Si?
[Simon] I did, Ingrid, yes. Thank you for asking. And I was extremely funny.
[Paige] Ew, no.
[Simon] Don’t you mean, “Ew. Yes, and…”
Dad. Can somebody please muzzle him when we meet my hall mates?
[indistinct chatter]
[girl] Oh my God!
Can you guys not right now?
Oh. Sorry, Anya, but I’m afraid we must. It is a physical compulsion, my love. How did we raise such brats?
Hi.
Oh my God. Are you Paige?
Yeah.
The trifecta’s complete!
Hi, Paige. I’m Judy.
Hi.
Oh right. I’m Katie. Do you play guitar?
I sing. [giggles] Parents! Hi, parents! You should know that I’m certified in first aid. And I’m a Cancer, the mother of the zodiac.
It’s him.
[Simon] You all right?
You’re the one who attacked that unhoused man, aren’t you?
Because it’s disgusting if you are.
[Simon] Pretty problematic of you to assume he was unhoused. Why do you think that?
Piss off.
[Simon] Gladly.

Hi, Katie. Um, you might not remember me.
I’m Simon Greene, Paige’s dad.
I did send you a message, but I never heard back.
I didn’t know who it was.
Really? It started with, “This is Paige’s dad.”
Scammers are really creative these days, okay?
How did you get my number anyway?
You gave it to me that first day you all moved in together.
You said if there was ever anything I needed.
Oh. Right.
Is this because of the video?
Because there was context–
Oh no. I loved the video.
I know what a shitbag Aaron is.
I just wanna talk to you about Paige, and why she left Lanford.
I don’t really know.
She’s missing.
Oh.
I went to see Aaron’s dad.
He told me that Paige sought Aaron out.
We always thought it was the other way around.
Yeah, they first met when Paige visited him.
Do you remember when that was?
Um, actually, yes, exactly.
She asked to borrow my car January 13th weekend.
I know because that’s my mum’s birthday.
Really?
Yeah, she turned 62.
No, no, no. I mean, Paige drove to see Aaron?
She never drives.
I know.
I told her she was doing too much for a rando.
Did she say anything about him?
She kind of stopped telling me stuff at that point.
I’m sorry, Katie.
She was my best friend.
Like, I’d never had a friend like that.
And then, for no reason, she just started acting like she hated me.
Paige’s addiction turned her into someone none of us recognized.
She changed way before the drugs.
[dramatic music playing]
What?
The drugs came later, with Aaron.
Are you sure? I thought maybe she visited Aaron because he was a dealer.
Why would she drive four hours for a dealer?
We’re on a university campus.
She could’ve gotten drugs from any guy with an eyebrow piercing.
There’s zero chance she was on anything before meeting Aaron.
She changed before getting into all of that.
I’m late for my class.
I’m sorry. I wish I could help more.
Aaron was murdered.
What?
Why? By who?
I don’t know who, but I’m terrified that they’re after Paige.
That’s why I need your help.
I need to work out what happened here, on this campus, that made her borrow your car and go to Aaron.
Take a moment to think. One thing.
Anything that might have made her change.
Paige told me there were problems at home.
What problems?
I didn’t ask.
That’s your family’s business.
Why are you doing this? Why?
I really need to go now. I’m sorry.
What about, um… [splutters] …the other friend, Judy?
Can you put me in contact with her?
I can’t.
She went home early for the term break.
Sorry. Bye.
[suspenseful music playing]
[birds chirping]
[footsteps approaching]
[Mrs. O’Hara sighs] I hurried to the shop before you woke up.
Wouldn’t be a Mrs. O’Hara visit without a fry-up, would it?
[Dee Dee] Oh, that’s so kind of you.
Is it all right?
Lovely.
Good.
It’s so wonderful you two are still so close.
You were always two of my favorites.
Aw. You say that to all your foster kids, don’t you?
I can’t believe how beautiful you are.
You were such a feral child.
And you.
You’re exactly the same.
Thanks so much for letting us stay.
[Mrs. O’Hara] Oh, of course.
Do you mind if I ask what brought you here?
Just work.
We’re freelance, and our employer was supposed to book us a hotel nearby.
There was a mix-up. [inhales sharply] Anyway, you really saved us.
So you work together?
You were fostered in this very house, and now you work together. How incredible!
Isn’t it?
It is.
Oh! [mock gasp] Sorry.
I didn’t know you could produce sound.
[chuckles] Yeah. All kinds.
So, what… what do you two do?
[sighs] It’s really boring stuff.
Trust me. Not worth getting into.
[inhales sharply]
Could I, uh, bother you for some more tea?
Of course. Of course.
[Dee Dee] Thanks.
I was, um… [clears throat] …checking her pulse. I…
I must have fallen asleep.
That’s a new one.
Your boss says you’ve been spending a lot of time here.
Don’t you have your patients’ pulses to check?
Well, my shift’s over.
And frankly, somebody should be here to be with her.
Do you think Ingrid would want you here?
I’m sorry, what kind of a question is that?
We went to that restaurant, where she got the takeout from.
They said Ingrid seemed stressed and agitated, was acting weird.
She asked to go out the back.
So, with that in mind, not to mention rumors of a disagreement between the two of you and CCTV footage of you following her to the restaurant… am I wrong to think she might be scared of you?
Ingrid’s not scared of me.
Why would she be scared of me? I…
Dr. Stanfield, I think it’s best you accompany me to the station.
My mum, she passed away.
[sighs]
[phone chimes]
[phone whooshes]
[Stanfield] Ingrid wasn’t scared of me.
I think she was just worried about someone seeing us together.
Why would she be worried about that?
Well… we used to go out together.
Years ago. Way before she met Simon.
So, maybe she thought people would get the wrong idea.
Is it the wrong idea?
Where did she go? From the restaurant?
Look, nowhere that has anything to do with what happened to her or her daughter’s boyfriend’s murder, okay?
I’m afraid that’s nowhere near good enough.
You were away from the hospital the entire time she was gone.
[sighs] Look, I swear, all of this is irrelevant.
I’m in a very awkward position here.
I want to respect Ingrid’s privacy but–
But if she doesn’t have an alibi for the murder…
[sighs heavily]
She does have an alibi.
Which is?
It’s me.
After she left the restaurant, she went back to my place.
And I met her there.
So she couldn’t have murdered Aaron.
I was right. They’re shagging.
I don’t know.
Ruby, they clocked in and out of the hospital at the same time.
His colleagues confirmed it.
He himself admitted they had a thing back in the day. They are shagging.
I think he wishes they were shagging.
But I just don’t see it.
So what, you think they were just innocently hanging out?
A married woman and her former lover in his apartment?
And that’s why Dr. Jay was reluctant to say anything about it?
Or she was never there.
She was out killing Aaron Corval, and this simp’s covering for her.
[chuckles]
They’re shagging.
Do you think Simon knows?
Be worth finding out.
A cheating wife and an addict daughter?
Could have pushed him over the edge.
I’ll go talk to him.
Suss it out.
[Simon] Hey, how’s your mum?
[Sam] Fine. No change when I left.
Are you at home?
Yeah.
I’ve been tasked with retrieving extra pairs of my mother’s underwear.
Which might be more traumatic than the coma.
Okay, Sam, look, I need you to do me a favor.
Mmhmm.
Go into Paige’s room.
Go to her old boxes.
Okay.
I want you to look for a diary or a planner or something like that.
Dad, isn’t mum’s knickers enough?
I mean, I don’t want to poke around my sister’s diary.
What if she talks about gross boy stuff?
You’ll manage. It’s important, please.
Okay.
Haven’t you been through this stuff a million times?
Yeah, well, I didn’t know what to look for.
[Sam] I’ve got a planner.
Okay, go to the weekend of January 13th.
Can you tell me why now?
That’s when she first met Aaron.
Okay, I’m on January 13th.
There’s a big ‘A’ for Aaron the arsehole.
What else am I looking for?
I don’t know, really. Um, anything that seems off in the weeks before.
Scanning for “off.”
Um…
Lots of homework.
Bit of Family Tree Club.
What’s that?
I think it’s a club, Dad.
A sprinkle of a cappella.
Lots of “PVB.”
What’s “PVB”?
I don’t know.
Uh…
Is it a club?
Don’t think so.
“Polyvinyl butyral, or PVB, a resin used for applications that require strong binding.”
Okay, no.
What are you talking about?
Forget it. It’s not that.
Maybe it’s a boyfriend.
A boyfriend?
The weekend with Aaron is labelled as A.
So PVB must be a stud, right?
He’s got three whole letters.
So, um, when did the PVB entries start?
Um…
October 9th is the first one.
Just after she started university.
Maybe PVB’s a drug thing.
No, no, no. Katie was adamant that that started after she met Aaron.
Paige’s university friend?
The mother of the Zodiac?
Yeah. Do you have any idea why Paige would have told her that there were problems at home?
No. Why?
[Judy] Mr. Greene?
Judy. Gotta go.
How’s Paige?
[sighs heavily]
[somber music playing]
[leaves rustling]
[swing creaking]
[children’s laughter echoing]
[young Dee Dee] Come on, Ash.
[boy 1] Jump, Dee Dee! Go higher!
[boy 2] Come on, Dee Dee, go back harder. Come on.
[children laughing]
[Dee Dee sighs] That was like three weeks’ worth of sodium.
I’ll be swollen for days.
Crazy bein’ back here, innit?
Yeah, too crazy.
Right, can we go now?
Soon.
[Ash sighs]
We’ve got more names on the list.
Let’s just get out of here.
[Dee Dee] Not yet.
I read they’re still looking for witnesses.
For the tattoo parlor stuff.
You remembering your jumps as a kid?
Course I am. [giggles] They were legendary. That spin move.
[Ash] Untouchable.
[Dee Dee giggles]
[somber music playing]
[Dee Dee] What else do you remember?
Uh, not much. Just you, really.
Anything besides me?
Did you repress it all?
Or do you just not want to talk about it?
Through The Shining Truth, I’ve learned a lot about confronting the past.
Great.
We’re not just here to hide out, you know?
We’re here so you can face what happened.
I don’t wanna talk about it.
Ash.
Please, Dee.
[Judy] I haven’t heard from her since she left Lanford.
I’m really sorry for not reaching out sooner.
I wanted to.
No, honestly, it’s–
No, I did.
I really care about Paige, and to see everything that happened…
Judy, maybe you can help me.
Um, I got Sam, my son, to check Paige’s diary.
And there were lots of mentions of PVB.
I didn’t know if it was a club or a boy she was seeing?
Oh, yeah. Professor van de Beek.
He’s one of the biology professors, and he runs the Family Tree Club.
He and Paige were really close.
He was helping her apply to transfer to medicine.
Paige wanted to study medicine?
Yeah.
Like her mum?
She never said.
[inhales] I’m surprised to see you.
Um, Katie said that you’d gone home early for term break.
You talked to Katie?
Yeah, and it was a bit bizarre.
Yeah.
She’s been weird about Paige ever since they had that fight.
What fight?
[suspenseful music playing]
They got in a huge one.
I never knew what about, but Katie kicked Paige out after.
Let me just talk to her first.
Katie?
[Ingrid] All right. Hold on. Let me see.
All right. One, two, three.
[camera clicks] Cute. Hold on. Landscape. One, two, three.
[camera clicks]
[Ingrid] That is gorgeous.
Oh, you’re so cute.
Okay.
[Ingrid laughs] She’s gone.
Katie, she’s packed up and gone.
[dramatic music playing]
She’s not picking up.
Call me. Where are you?
[birds calling]
[indistinct chatter on police radio]
Are you ogling the tiger or doing your job?
I’m not ogling the tiger.
Anyway, you talked to Neil.
Right to it.
He wasn’t too shocked that Damien was on a DNA website.
I guess he’s had an interest in his biological family since his dad died.
His biological family?
He was adopted?
[Alex] So you think someone’s targeting adopted people?
[Elena] Mmm. It’s much too soon to say.
The cases are all so different.
We’ve got one murdered man, Damien, adopted.
One missing man, Henry, also adopted.
And one other murdered man, Aaron.
Well, don’t know if he’s adopted yet, but it’s compelling, isn’t it?
So we’re looking for a suspect with serious mummy and/or daddy issues.
[chuckles] Or we’re looking for more victims who fit the pattern.
[sighs] Hello. I’m here to see Professor van de Beek.
Nope.
What?
He’s on sabbatical.
I need to talk to him about my daughter, Paige Greene.
Hello?
Hello, hello, hello, yourself.
[emphasizing] Sabbatical.
[dramatic musical sting]
My daughter is missing.
Can you have some empathy?
Unfortunately, Professor van de Beek has been off for the past year.
Since when last year?
Spring term.
Spring term?
[beeping resumes]
That’s when Paige dropped out.
After several visits to his Family Tree Club.
Listen, Mr. Greene.
I did know your daughter.
I saw what path she went down.
Respectfully, Paige being missing has nothing to do with a biology professor she had.
I’m not at liberty to say any more on the matter.
Please.
Bye now.
[student] Hi, I’m looking for lecture room number 408.
I was wondering if you could you tell me where that is.
[receptionist] It’s in the other building.
[suspenseful music playing]
[lock rattles]
[lock rattling]
[male student] It’s not that kind of lock.
Don’t worry. I don’t care. [chuckles] Just sayin’.
Yeah, thanks. Um…
Bye.
Wait.
What do you want in there?
I don’t know. My, um…
[sighs] My daughter’s missing.
What kind of missing?
She’s missing.
But like, why are you the one here and not the police if she’s missing missing?
Because I am.
Why does it matter?
Because maybe I can help you.
Who is she?
Paige Greene.
[thud]
Yeah, I think I know who she is.
R-Respectfully, she’s really into drugs, right?
Have you seen her or not?
Not for a long while. Sorry.
Do you know anything about this guy?
You think your daughter ran off with van de Beek?
Why do you say it like that?
Because that guy is…
He’s that kind of guy.
You mean he’s…
A massive creep?
[chuckling] Yeah.
Sorry, it’s just facts.
Jesus Christ. What, you… you mean he’s had relationships with students?
For sure.
Yeah, it’s all rumors, but he definitely had the vibe.
[ominous music playing]
[line ringing]
[phone chiming]
[Elena] I can’t talk right now.
We need to track down Paige’s biology professor.
Simon–
He’s been, um…
I’m gonna kill him.
Whoa, okay. Look, do not do that.
Are you at the university?
Yeah. He’s not here, though.
I found Paige’s university jacket last night at Aaron’s caravan.
She must’ve been there recently.
So I thought I’d come here and try and…
[inhales sharply]
And then all this.
Okay, well, look, I will meet you later.
In the meantime, do not kill anyone.
Yeah, whatever.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Elena] Tell me about Henry’s adoption.
You think it’s got something to do with all this?
Damien Gorsch, a man who was in touch with Henry before he went missing, has been murdered.
[Sebastian] Oh.
I spoke to Damien’s mother.
She told me he was adopted through an agency called Hope and Growth.
[dramatic music playing]
That’s the one.
[swallows hard]
That’s the same one Henry was adopted from.
Oh my God.
[breathing raggedly]
[Elena] I’m going to keep looking for him, Sebastian.
I’ll do everything I can.
[swallows, sighs]
[breathing shakily]
[suspenseful music playing]
[keys jingling]
[music intensifies]
[drill whirs]
[drill whirring]
[door handle rattling]
[clicking]
[door opens]
[door closes]
[dramatic music fades out]
[Elena] Oh God.
[sighs] Men are such dogs.
Apparently, Paige would meet up with him almost every night. Um…
He went on sabbatical right after she dropped out.
He has a reputation.
[Elena sighs]
I need to find him, talk to him.
And if he’s the reason all this has happened, I’ll kill him.
Right. Well, first of all, do not kill him.
And if you do, don’t tell me you have.
And secondly, I have come across another murdered man.
Damien Gorsch.
He’s the owner of that tattoo parlor.
Henry Thorpe was in touch with him.
He was adopted from the same agency as Henry.
So two men, one murdered, one missing, both adopted from the same place.
[Maria speaking indistinctly]
Does that taste all right?
Yeah, fine. Why?
Well, you keep looking at the waitress like she’s pissed in it.
Oh. [chuckles] Sorry. I’m not the most subtle.
She’s the owner, not the waitress.
I’ve been looking into her.
For the case?
No, not quite.
[sighs heavily]
You know when I said that men are dogs?
Mmhmm.
Well, I know ’cause I married one.
What, you’re saying he–
NNo, no, not her.
Her mother.
So she’s…
My dead husband’s secret daughter, yes.
Fuck me.
Big fuck me.
And even bigger fuck me because my mother-in-law knew about it the whole time.
She’s been keeping it to herself all these years.
I suppose she didn’t want things to be awkward at work.
She’s my tech woman. [chuckles] Aw! Elena.
That’s a lot.
Mm.
I’m sorry.
[Elena inhales deeply]
Go on. I’ll catch up with you tomorrow.
You have got professors to not kill.
Yeah, yeah.
Thank you.
[dramatic music playing]
Paige!
[Paige] I’m in the bathroom. Get out.
All right, all right.
Dinner’s ready in five minutes.
[Paige] Got it. Got it. Get out.
[somber music playing]
[message notification clicks]
[somber music continues]
What are you doing?
Are you reading my texts?
I didn’t mean to.
I just walked past, and there was a topless selfie from Random Lad.
He’s literally my friend, okay?
He was just asking me whether I liked his haircut.
And why are you reading my texts?
With his nipples out?
Paige, you’re better than this.
What kind of stuff are you sending these boys, eh?
Don’t tell me what to do.
I’m just looking out for you.
Oh, I can’t wait to leave this fucking house.
[door slam echoes]
[phone ringing]
Is everything okay?
[Yvonne] No change.
Are you coming by?
Soon, yeah.
I just need to drop by the house first.
Um… [inhales]
[sighs]
I’ve just been to Paige’s university.
Did she ever say anything about problems at home before the drugs?
No.
I just can’t help but think that this is all my fault.
Simon, you know that’s not true.
We got into a big row before she went to Lanford.
I thought we’d moved on, but clearly she didn’t feel like she could tell me things anymore.
She’s a teenage girl.
It’d be weird if she did.
Yeah. I don’t know.
You’ve got to stop trying to make this all your fault, Simon.
Yeah, okay. Um… [sighs] I’ve got to go, Yvonne.
I’ll see you later.
[phone beeps]
[sighs]
[somber music playing]
Mr. Greene.
Mind if I have a word?
Is Paige okay?
This isn’t about your daughter.
[music fades out]
[door thuds shut]
[Fagbenle] Is this Ingrid when she was younger?
Yeah. She used to do some modeling.
Thank God I’m funny, eh?
Are you?
She must get a lot of attention from other men.
That’s a strange thing to say.
Why are you here?
I wanted to ask about your wife’s relationship with Dr. Jay Stanfield.
They’re old friends. Why?
Your wife’s alibi for the night of Aaron’s murder has changed.
She wasn’t at the hospital like she told us officially.
Okay. Where was she?
She was with Dr. Stanfield at his apartment.
Alone.
What?
He told us, reluctantly, as he wanted to respect Ingrid’s privacy.
[laughs incredulously] Ingrid wouldn’t.
[somber music playing]
What are you trying to say?
[incredulously] Ingrid? And Jay?
[music darkens]
[high-pitched ringing]
Paige told me there were problems at home.
I’m sorry, Mr. Greene.
[somber music fades out]
[phone dings]
I know what you did.
Pardon?
[dramatic music playing]
Uh… What is that?
You.
Breaking into my house, you creep.
I don’t know who you are.
I don’t know what you want with me or my dog.
But this is the last time you will ever come in here or near my family again.
Do you understand?
Why don’t you sit down and let me explain?
You’ve had all day to explain.
You have had days to explain.
We are so beyond that.
I’ve called the police.
Elena Ravenscroft, I’m arresting you on suspicion of burglary.

[chuckling softly] All right. Don’t be an arse about it.
You invaded my privacy.
I can’t believe you believe in all that stuff.
Oh, Ash.
You’ll choose The Shining Truth one day.
Okay, Dee.
“Dee Dee”?
[chuckling] I had to get them.
[laughing] I love it.
I’m taking them everywhere.
I sorted the car too.
You’re gonna love it. Heated seats.
A warm bum is a warm heart.
As you’ve said, yep.
But we can’t go just yet.
Why?
[menacing music playing]
[children’s shouts and laughter echoing]
[shouting and laughing continue]
Because of what happened here.
Look, I’m fine, Dee. All right?
Can we just not go there, please?
How else will you move on?
By getting the fuck out of this place.
[somber music playing]
Okay. Okay.
I’ll do it.
[music intensifies]
No. Dee.
[music fades]
[clears throat]
[inhales softly]
Can I get you anything, dear?
No, no. We’re about to head out.
Oh, well.
But do you mind if we chat real quick?
Yes, yes, please. Sit.
I, um…
I wanted to know, what do you remember best about when we lived here with you?
Um, I remember how outgoing you were.
I remember, um… you had long hair.
Yeah.
Anything else?
[chuckles softly] What’s this about, dear?
What about Ash?
What do you remember about him?
Dee Dee.
[menacing music playing]
Oh, please. That was years ago.
Wow, Dee Dee. So cool.
[menacing music continues]
[Mrs. O’Hara sighs]
It’s ruined. Completely ruined.
You think this is how I want to spend playtime?
[iron hisses]
[shakily] No. No.
Hold still!
[young Ash] No!
Is that why you’re here?
To make an old lady feel badly about things that happened years ago?
That’s all you have to say about it?
It was a different time.
He was a rotten child.
[Dee Dee chuckles] And what about me?
Was I rotten too?
Ugh.
I never touched you.
[young Dee screaming] No!
[shakily] No. No.
How do you forget something like that?
I can still smell it happening.
What about this?
Still doesn’t go any higher.
Remember?
You ripped it from its socket that time I had the flu and got sick on your couch.
It was a different time.
What do you want?
Do you want me to say I’m sorry?
All right. I’m sorry.
Okay? Can we stop this now, please?
[Dee Dee] Do you want to know what we do for work?
It’s actually not that boring.
We kill people.
All right. That’s it.
I’m phoning the police.
I always knew you’d become this.
[gun cocks]
[gun firing]
[wet splattering]
[dramatic music playing]
[Dee Dee exhales shakily]
Don’t you feel better already?
[dramatic musical sting]
[medical equipment beeping]
[footsteps approaching]
Hey.
The kids are headed home.
Is it okay if I go?
Yeah. Um, can I talk to you about something?
Sure. What’s going on?
Is Paige my daughter?
Of course she is.
What… How can you even ask that?
Ingrid was cheating on me.
What?
Detective Fagbenle just came to my house.
She was with Jay the night Aaron was murdered.
At his flat, alone.
I’m sure there is a very good reason for that.
Ingrid would never cheat on you.
How is that your first conclusion?
Why would she lie to the police about it?
There must be a very good reason for that.
Don’t you think?
Simon, you need to calm down.
Paige was looking into her family tree.
She told her friends there were problems at home.
I think she worked out that I’m not her dad.
My sister loves you more than anything.
Maybe you need to go to the police with what you found out about Paige instead of doing it all on your own.
I’m not going to the police. They think I killed Aaron. Why would they help me?
Simon, I think you’re losing your mind a bit.
To think that Ingrid could do that to you.
I’ll tell you what, Yvonne.
Just you go home. I’m fine. It’s okay.
Go home.

Detective Todd?
Detective Fagbenle?
I spoke with Simon Greene.
Regarding the rumored shagging of his wife and her colleague?
He had no idea.
Oh, yikes.
[inhales sharply] Anyway, new development on the Marinduque shootings.
Ballistics report for the probable gun that shot Luther.
It says, “High probability he was shot with a Makarov, a Soviet and Taliban army-issue weapon.”
Can’t be too many of those around.
Could be someone in the army who took a souvenir from the battlefield.
I think that neighbor who had the key was in the army.
Yeah.

[Dee Dee] I’m really proud of you, you know.

Is she mine, Ingrid?

[echoing heartbeat]
Is she mine?

Ingrid?
