Everything I'm doing is to protect you.
- I can't trust anyone. - You can trust me.
The police have Jake Seaton in custody
but I'm certain he isn't the only one doing this.
The boy that was killed, Craig Nevins,
one of his family members must hold a grudge against me.
Who else might be involved?
I have nothing to do with what has happened
to you or Belinda or Judge Stuart.
Flora got a message from Mark.
She told us she was going to see her boss.
Police checked both of our phones
and there was nothing from that night.
Mark!
There's a laptop that has information on it,
that may tell us who's behind this.
Who is it?
It's Emma Seaton.
She's alive.
Did you know Emma's alive?
I can't even say that out loud. It's absolutely ridiculous.
Emma is the one person who makes complete sense.
No, because she wouldn't do this.
Jake's not the mastermind behind this.
So who is likely
to have been able to pressurise him into this?
Not Emma, because she's dead.
We can't be certain.
- I went to her inquest. - They didn't find a body.
She washed out to sea.
I went to her funeral.
She wouldn't do this.
He means she wouldn't do it to him.
Are you working with her?
Do you really think you're such a saviour to Emma?
Keep her name out of your mouth.
Look... Forget him.
Don't look at... Look at me.
You were with her the weeks before she disappeared, right?
Yeah.
Was there anything unusual?
Anything?
Get him out of my flat right now.
Okay. Can you leave?
I'll meet you outside.
You have to understand why we thought
you might be involved.
I know you want to find Emma as much as I do.
Why did she keep all this from me?
I've always been on her side.
We need to talk to Jake.
He's the only one that could tell us the truth.
Can we get DI Winstanley to interview him?
No. She's tried several times.
- Jake's not talking. - Okay, well, then you.
You are the one person he might open up to about this.
I'm suspended.
Winstanley won't let me near the investigation.
Okay, I know this is a big risk, but can you get us to him?
Apparently, he's out on bail.
He's on the electronic tag.
If we can get the location of that,
we might be able to find him.
Okay.
He's going to try and find Jake.
I'm going to go with him but you can't come.
You know he can't be trusted.
Well, I'm worried about your safety
because if Emma's alive, you're her target.
And you're not?
You just go somewhere safe until you hear from me.
I mean, I have empty flats I can go to, yeah.
Okay, well, do that.
- I've got to go. - Ingrid, wait.
If you're going to go with him...
take this taser with you.
You might need it.
- Any joy? - Yeah.
They didn't exactly want to help me.
But I know where he is.
I saw his tag.
We need to talk to you, Jake.
Is she alive?
I'm not here as a police detective. I'm here for Emma.
I'm sorry for hurting you.
- I felt trapped. - What about when you
tried to run me over with a car? Did you feel trapped then?
You were very funny in court too.
Even when you made my sister
sound like the biggest liar on the planet.
Jake... We need to know about Emma.
What about her?
Is she alive?
Is she?
Jake, I know you must love your sister.
And she was damaged by the trial.
And that must have been...
profoundly hard to deal with.
If my sister asked me to help her, I would do it.
I would.
But this can't go on forever,
and the only way you can help her now
is by telling us the truth.
It wasn't my idea. None of it.
Okay.
Come on.
What did you do?
I lied to the police.
I told them Emma had called me that day
to say goodbye, that she was going to end it all.
Then I drove her away from the pier,
hid her in the boot of my car and made sure no one saw her.
I should... I should have told...
Why didn't you come to me?
It wasn't about you.
Where is she, Jake?
I don't know.
You communicated online using Tor.
Yeah. Well...
we used to meet up underneath Waterloo Bridge.
There's a spot where there aren't any cameras, you see?
Who else is she working with, Jake?
Look, if you know anything, now is the time to share it.
It won't just help you
but it could keep Emma safe as well.
Michael Nevins, Craig's oldest brother.
He, erm...
He hates you more than Emma does.
- He contacted my sister. - When?
After you got off the person who murdered his brother.
Michael got into Emma's head. He played into her...
played into her feelings about you.
They wanted to see you punished, they started planning it all.
So who's idea was it for Emma to fake her death?
Nevins. He...
told her she'd be so much freer to do what she wanted
and make you suffer like she had.
Especially, with you around.
You promise you don't know where Emma could be?
I'm telling you everything.
We need to speak to DI Winstanley.
Emma has to be found.
She said you wouldn't understand why she had to do it.
You're going to go to prison, Jake,
for what you've done.
And I can't help you.
I didn't kill anyone.
Jake, you've not helped your sister.
You've helped ruin both of your lives.
Let him go.
You were suspended.
This is gross misconduct.
Jake wasn't talking to police
so I judged that he may have come clean with me
in light of my connection with Emma.
Oh, you judged it, did you?
And how does his death figure in that?
That was all my doing, And I'll take the consequences.
We have to find Emma.
Basic decency means
there should never have been a connection
with Emma Seaton.
If I have my say, your career is over.
Emma was manipulated into this.
It was Michael Nevins who initiated the contact.
Leave this building now!
Right, may I advise you yet again
to take every measure possible to protect yourself.
Get yourself somewhere safe.
Inform our officers where before you leave the station.
- Can we just... - You shouldn't be here.
I'm busy, I have suspects to locate.
John Webster needs protection,
we are both prime targets for Emma.
John Webster will receive exactly the same advice as you
when it comes to personal safety while we're investigating.
That's not enough.
Feel free to register a complaint
with the Home Office about our lack of resources.
You didn't suspect anything?
What, that my disturbed ex-girlfriend...
brought me to court for breaking up with her
would be so unhinged as to pretend to kill herself?
No, Ingrid, I didn't suspect that.
We need to stay here until the police find her.
I owe you an apology.
- It's not necessary. - But you were right.
From the first phone call you were right.
You needed to come to your own conclusions.
You know your own mind,
and that's something I've always found incredibly attractive.
So, what, do we just wait until we have news
from DI Winstanley?
I just kept thinking about Emma and Jake...
and I just feel terrible about them, you know?
And, if I'm honest, I think...
I know I'm partly responsible.
I saw how damaged and fragile she was
when we first met, and...
I should have treaded more carefully
Well, it's probably true what you said last night.
No use in speculating, is there?
Well, I can't help it.
One breakup rippling out to affect so many lives. It's...
I mean...
What?
I can't quite believe it...
it's just... Emma faking her death.
I mean, it's hard to get your head around.
Especially on the dark web.
Emma and Jake meeting up under a bridge
to hatch their plans against us.
It's crazy.
Yeah.
We should stop talking about them.
I should get that.
Anne. Hi. What's happened?
Amazing.
Okay, yeah. Erm, I can, er...
Well, I can come right now.
Okay.
Yeah, I'll see you in a bit.
Bye.
Mark?
Yeah, he's, erm...
He's woken up.
That's great.
Yeah. He's asking for me.
Well, you should go. I'll come with you.
No.
No, it's safer for you to stay here.
I'll come back.
Okay? Okay?
Okay. Bye.
I'm lucky.
To have you on my side.
Hi, you're through to DI Jill Winstanley.
Leave me a message and I'll get back to you.
And you are certain you didn't see who it was?
I'm sorry.
Could it have been Webster?
Jake Seaton told me where he and Emma used to meet up.
It was under Waterloo Bridge to avoid any CCTV.
Yeah. Webster knew exactly where they were doing this.
- Maybe you told him. - No.
No, absolutely not. And Nash would never.
So how would he possibly know that?
I don't want to make you feel bad,
but I need to ask you something.
When he was pretending to be your squash buddy...
Oh, no, I had no idea who he was then.
I know. Did you ever talk to him about Flora
or show him a photo of her?
Yes, I...
I have to... I have to go. Okay?
The fire. Was it you?
Did you try to kill me?
I think you were right.
If Flora had got a message
to come and meet Mark at our house,
that would explain what happened that night.
I told you she did.
Can I see her room?
- What? - Look, I believe Mark
but I don't think your daughter was delusional.
I need to prove it. Please
I know this must be really difficult to think about,
but can you tell me again
what exactly happened the night Flora died.
We were all watching television together after dinner.
Flora got a text and she raced up here.
She came down later, changed.
All dressed up. That was the last time we saw her.
What are you looking for?
This is why no one found messages
between Flora and Mark on her phone.
She messaged him secretly on this.
There it is.
He would never call himself Marky.
This isn't Mark, this is...
Webster pretending to be Mark.
I'm going to get the police to come over and get this.
I have to go. Thank you.
What took you so long?
We arrested Michael Nevins early this morning.
You found evidence?
My officers found a set of keys
to your flat in his glove compartment.
Plus a record on his Visa card for purchasing a red umbrella.
And we found jewellery from the break-in
on Oliver Gough's flat in his attic.
So what's Nevins saying?
Oh, shocked, no idea where it all came from.
Heard it all before.
All our resources are now
focused on locating Emma Seaton.
What about Webster?
What about him?
I think he's working with Emma.
He's involved.
What do you mean?
Miss Lewis?
Would have preferred to go back to where I was on trial.
This isn't a trial...
Emma.
It can still count.
It'll be fair.
That's all that's important.
- Fair? - Hmm.
Like when you were fair to Peter Stuart?
You have a degree, a network of friends,
a polished wardrobe.
You seem far from the victim you're portraying.
She was wearing a short skirt and a low-cut top.
The victim was no stranger to having drunken, loutish fights.
Judge Stuart made all those statements
to or about victims.
And that justifies murdering a judge?
A man like that should never have got to decide
what my jury could and couldn't hear.
That's his job.
Oh.
Well, if that's going to be your defence...
"I was doing my job,"
this won't take as long as I thought.
Would you like to talk about your trial, Emma?
Yes.
Because it was supposed to be
about what John Webster did to me.
How he harassed me.
How he followed me. How he treated me.
Why didn't all those things get aired?
Because the jury don't get to hear
exactly what you want them to, Emma.
You twisted every word
of what little the prosecution could say.
Would you like to hear
how John Webster really treated me?
Emma...
He used to call them "challenges."
I would stand there for hours in the freezing cold.
I wanted to show him how strong I was.
It's time to come back inside now.
He only did it when the neighbours were away.
Webster knew it was always going to be his word against mine.
I need to tell you something about him.
Emma, listen.
It's my turn now.
It was the CPS that decided
which allegations wouldn't feature in my case.
I don't hold you responsible for that.
Making me sound like an obsessed, unstable wreck...
that was all your doing.
I was prescribed some anti-depressants.
You made me look psychotic.
I lost my temper in public once.
You made me seem like I was seething with vengeful rage.
A woman scorned, wasting the court's time.
I never got the chance to say why
I actually got John's initials inked on me.
Another thing you twisted.
And what does the wolf cover up?
- Another tattoo. - Another tattoo that shows what?
JW.
JW?
Mr Webster's initials.
You got your original tattoo later than you claimed.
It was after you'd broken up
it was after you reported him to the police,
those were the facts. That is all I presented.
But he asked me to get it.
He left me gifts
I didn't know what to think.
He never stopped, he never left me alone.
I need to ask you...
Webster was in touch with you after the trial?
Yes.
For how long?
Up until the day before I had to...
disappear.
It was never going to stop.
I thought it was Michael Nevins' idea...
for you to fake your death.
Yes.
It was.
One of us had to be incognito.
And I knew that was the only way for me to truly escape Webster.
For him to believe I was gone.
What made you feel like you couldn't
talk to Nash about Webster's behaviour?
Start the cycle again?
Police, prosecution, trial, loss, annihilation.
But you could have gone to the police,
you could have gone to the police.
Then why didn't you do that?
When Webster turned his attentions in your direction?
How do you know about that?
I saw you with him.
You could have gone to the police.
They would have dealt with him, they would.
- It's not the same. - It's exactly the same.
- It's not the same. - It's exactly the same
and I know why you didn't.
So many women know why we wouldn't report
what men like Webster do until it's too late.
I didn't create the system.
And the rules,
and the rights, and the wrongs.
You would defend anyone and destroy anyone to win.
Wouldn't you?
It doesn't make you bad person
to defend bad people.
Doesn't it?
So, you made it to round two.
And if this goes well,
final hurdle to a pupillage with us
is meeting our Head of Chambers Angus Grey.
These Chambers are my first choice.
Oh, really? Why so?
Don't let the fact that Angus is
my husband in any way affect your answer.
All you clients here are often
fighting the hardest fight they ever will,
when you represent them. And...
I want to fight the good fight on their behalf.
Oh, God, I'm sorry. I know you mean it.
I do.
I... really do.
Yes. I'm sorry, Ingrid.
I'm way too cynical these days.
So, Ingrid...
You have the CV, the work experience,
the outstanding academics.
So does every applicant.
I'm not like every applicant.
Angus has the final say, and...
trust me,
fighting the good fight will be an instant thumbs down from him.
So...
Why do you really want to be a criminal barrister?
A trial can change people's lives entirely.
And as a lawyer you can get to be a part of justice.
Being that, it really is all I've ever wanted to do.
And I really like to win.
I know what you all tell yourselves.
That a lawyer is not morally accountable for what they do
in fulfilling their professional duties.
Textbooks say that.
Your friend Belinda thought the same.
Why her?
She wasn't even one of Webster's lawyers.
So why her?
I wasn't planning to hurt her that night.
But then I heard her on the phone to you.
Singing your praises.
It made my blood boil.
I'm not sure
I'm the best representative of Chambers.
Bollocks, Ingrid.
You're making a name for yourself as a killer advocate
who can work miracles for her clients.
So I'm telling you as your wise mentor to do it.
Excuse me.
Webster hurt you, not me.
Definitely not Belinda.
You don't get to decide who hurt me.
So...
Because you didn't get the result
that you wanted at trial...
you did all of this damage.
Is that fair?
This is bigger than me.
People like you achieve more success
the more you break people.
I found out what you and Belinda
and that judge did to Craig Nevins and...
- How? How? - And so many other people.
Did Michael Nevins tell you
or is that part of what you got Jake to do,
- research me... - Have you spoken to my brother?
He was arrested
I know.
I didn't force him to help me.
Is he still in custody?
I'm sorry.
We went to go and talk to him.
It was an accident.
Jake... died.
Things felt real between us.
But it was really a long time ago.
And I was in a bad place.
No.
I need you to call him, now.
- Emma, your brother's... - No, no.
John. I'll tell you what to say.
Okay. Look, you need to listen to me about John.
Webster took the life I had and destroyed it.
You helped him get away with it.
- What are you going to do? - Enough talking.
I'll tell you what to say.
He'll come running to you. I need you both together now.
Emma, the police are searching for you.
You just tell John that the police
have already arrested me.
That you... That you want to meet him where I died.
To start a new chapter. He'll like that.
- Do it. Do it now. - Okay.
Okay.
Hi, John, it's me.
I've just heard that they've... they've arrested Emma.
Yeah.
Can you meet me somewhere?
Emma, we're on the same side.
Be quiet. He'll be here soon.
Tell me, it was Michael Nevins
who messaged you first, right?
He contacted you?
I told you this already.
Have you ever met Nevins in person?
No. We were protecting each other
Protecting each other.
Okay, when was your last message from him?
This isn't important.
Yes, it is, Emma. I promise you it is.
When was your last message from Michael Nevins?
It was an hour ago.
Michael was watching you at the hospital.
He told me that you'd gone to see Mr Pole.
Keep moving.
Okay, listen to me. Listen...
It's not possible
that Michael Nevins was messaging you.
That you were communicating with Michael Nevins.
He was arrested by the police at dawn.
Who else would it be?
It's Webster.
It's always been Webster.
Emma.
Emma!
Emma.
Has she hurt you?
Emma...
I don't know what you think you're doing
but this has to stop now.
What do you think we're doing here, John?
You've been so careful from the start.
What has she been saying to you, Ingrid?
Nash was right about you.
We've been through so much, you're not thinking straight.
You posed as Michael Nevins
to manipulate Emma into faking her death.
It can't be you.
You're too intelligent to fall for this.
And the fire, I was right by the fire as well, wasn't I?
You wanted me to come home that night, and find Flora.
You set the whole thing up so I would come running to you
after I left Mark.
And Flora was, what, just collateral damage, was she?
And then there's this... This... This desperate plan
to have me terrorised and traumatised
so I had no one to trust but you.
You made me put all my faith in you
and then leave me indebted to you
after you saved me from Emma.
You should have killed Emma and have me defend you.
I only get off on the high of winning, remember?
Emma.
You okay?
No! No!
- Don't! - Ingrid. Stay...
Emma! Emma! Emma! Stop!
Emma! Stop it, Emma.
Get away from her.
Ingrid...
All I've ever done is love you.
Ingrid...
Emma!
What's happened?
So, Webster brought the taser with him?
As I stated previously.
And despite carrying the weapon
and the apparent intention to attack
you and Emma Seaton,
he voluntarily confessed to the murder of Judge Stuart?
Yes. Webster was bragging.
He thought he was untouchable.
Based on the last few years, I can...
I can see why he might consider that to be the case.
It's just moments before the attempted attack on Miss Seaton.
Correct.
Before, according to your statement,
Webster ran towards Emma with the weapon,
he slipped, overbalanced, and fell into the water.
Correct.
What are you doing about Michael Nevins?
He had nothing to do with any of this.
Well, we'll investigate.
Follow the law.
You remember the law, don't you.
Webster framed Nevins.
To manipulate Emma and Jake Seaton.
And I'm certain
that if you can trace the messages
sent to Flora Pole's phone on the night of the fire,
it will prove to be a cloned copy of Mark's number,
created by Webster.
It all sounds highly elaborate.
Webster would do anything
to achieve his goal.
Which was what, exactly?
What drove Webster to do all this?
In his mind it was a love story.
He would do anything to have me to himself.
Is it the whole truth you're telling me
about how he died, Ingrid.
It's what the court will hear.
I'll leave you with Sarah
to get into all the details.
And your plea is clear?
All your claims against John Webster
have been comprehensively
documented and supported.
Thank you.
For helping me.
Thank you, too.
Honestly.
You made me think about the...
effects of what we do in court, and...
the end of the trial
isn't the end of the situation for those involved.
I suppose that is some comfort.
Goodbye for now, Emma.
Thank you.
You okay?
I didn't really want to run into Miss Seaton in the hallway.
Thought it best to get some air.
Have you changed your mind?
You said you were okay with our Chambers acting for her.
I did. I am.
But only after everything you told me about her.
And what Webster did to her.
Well, it demonstrates our Chamber's commitment
to the essential principal of the law.
It's still a trying situation.
Helping the person who killed your wife.
Do you think...
think Belinda would be proud of my magnanimity?
Of course, she would.
She respected you immensely, Angus.
As do I.
Truly.
Oh, it's definitely Ingrid's round.
- No. - Yeah.
Oh, okay. Fine.
I can buy three drinks, one time.
Hey, thanks for inviting me out.
It's nice to see you enjoying yourself.
Well, a wise lady once told me
that work isn't really my friend.
No. Hmm.
And you two have been real friends to me.
I'm going to go the bathroom.
And then we'll do karaoke.
And I'm going to tackle Lady Gaga.
- All right. - Yeah.
Hello.
