♪♪ ♪♪ He's gone.

She's taken him.

She's taken him, Eve!

[tyres screech] [Marlene] Nicole.

If you're here, who's with the baby?

[breathes heavily] Brandi took him.

-Took him where?

-I don't know.

I don't know, I'm so sorry.

I mean, I only left her for, like, two minutes.

When I came back, Brandi and wee baby Barry, they were gone.

Are you telling me that she's... stolen my child?

-I'm so sorry.

-Why would she do that?

It doesn't matter why.

We need to get him back.

She can't have gone far.

Let's go!

OK.

I'm right behind you.

Seamie!

-What's going on?

-We need your help!

Brandi has snatched wee Barry!

Come on!

[Seamie] What?

Come on, folks!

I'm so sorry!

You sort CCTV and ANPR.

I'll speak with the Major Incident Team.

Copy that.

[bangs on door] Brandi!

It's me!

[bangs on door] It's the police!

Come to the door!

Hello?

Yeah, Inspector, it's Ryan.

There's no sign of Brandi or the baby at her place.

[door opens] [sighs] [Clint] I've looked everywhere, I can't find Brandi.

Is this my fault?

How on earth could this be your fault?

Having another man's baby?

Maybe this is my punishment.

Sweetheart, this baby's a gift.

[Clint sighs] This is, uh, this is a blip.

Before you know it, he'll be back home where he belongs.

[Eve] The baby is only a few days old so, naturally, we are concerned about his well-being.

I can't believe she took Nicole's baby.

Who did?

Brandi, that girl from the pub.

You mean that Brandi over there?

Call your mum.

Tell her we found Brandi.

[car door opens] Brandi?

What am I doing?

I don't know what I was thinking.

Everything Nicole's done for me and this is how I repay her.

Who's your brother on the phone to?

Don't worry about him.

-I need you to get out.

-No way.

Fine.

[tyres screech] Stop!

Wait!

Chloe!

Mum, they've driven off!

[Marlene] Yeah.

Thanks, boss.

I'll pass it on.

Bye.

What's up?

Uh, so Brandi is heading north on Gorse Road.

-OK.

-Wait, wait.

There's more.

Chloe's in the car with her.

What do you mean, she's in the car with her?

Tell me on the way.

[tyres screech] Gorse Road?

That leads up to Drumhallow, which is on the way to Dolphin Point.

What do you know?

Well, Brandi and I went to Dolphin Point a lot when we were an item.

-That's where she's headed?

-It's a possibility, yeah.

-Right, let's go, cub.

-[Ryan] All right.

Ryan thinks he knows where Brandi's headed.

OK, pass that on to Luke and Marlene.

This is my son we're talking about.

And my stepdaughter.

OK.

Just radio through the location to the others.

-Yeah, boss.

-[sighs] Keep an eye on him.

Inspector.

♪♪ What on earth was Chloe thinking, getting into that car?

She's gonna be OK, Granny.

That's the two of them missing now.

I've never felt so helpless.

There is one thing we can do.

-What?

-Pray.

We all worship the same god, after all.

That's her answer to everything.

Uh, mind you, I don't suppose it could do any harm.

[Lois] Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

Lead us not into temptation... -Give me the phone.

-Or what?

Or you're gonna be walking home.

Do you even know how to look after a baby?

[phone lands] Why'd you take him?

I don't know!

Marlene just kept going on and on about my mum.

Next thing I know, I put the baby in the back seat of the car.

I don't even know how to look after a baby.

I don't.

Do you?

I've helped out with my cousins before.

Hey.

It's going to be OK.

[siren wails] [Ryan] It's up that way.

Who are you looking for?

Do you know this guy?

Nathan Williamson.

I don't know him, but he was in the Commodore earlier on.

Why?

-No reason.

-[siren approaches] Police!

Brandi, it's for the best!

Brandi!

Stop!

-[Callum] Come here.

-[Chloe] He's fine.

-Come here.

-He's totally fine.

-She wasn't gonna hurt him.

-You're OK.

You're OK.

You're OK.

[sighs deeply] You're OK.

Clint!

Clint!

Thanks, Callum.

That's amazing.

What?

Callum's found him.

Baby Barry's OK!

Oh!

Brilliant!

I told you.

It's OK, yeah?

[she sobs] What were you thinking, getting in that car?

Sorry.

Look, don't be.

I'm actually quite proud of you.

Just don't do it again.

[laughs] -Are you OK?

-[sighs] Never better.

[sighs] Hey, Brandi!

Why don't you clear out of Port Devine?

And don't ever come back!

[birds call] Here, listen up!

Wee Barry's safe and well!

[cheering and applause] What did I tell you about the power of prayer?

What, so Jesus found him?

No.

Callum.

I don't know how you got through it.

Oh, Clint has been my rock.

It was all an act.

I've never been as scared in my life.

Come on, Clint.

Let's go get our baby back.

[laughs] Hey, it's good news.

Ach, man, dear.

Come here to me.

There now.

[chuckles] -There he is now.

-[pants] I lost her.

Now, look, I'm sure you did your best.

I'll notify Control, and don't beat yourself up, yeah?

Brandi's photo's everywhere.

Won't be long before we find her.

Is Brandi going to be OK?

Don't tell me you feel sorry for her?

It's getting late and she's all alone.

Yeah, well.

I'm glad to see the back of her!

He's only a few days old, but... I don't know how I would live without him.

Did you ever feel you were in danger?

Well, some of Brandi's driving was a bit scary.

But I never thought she was out to hurt me.

Or the baby.

Tell me about her state of mind.

She was agitated.

She told me she was talking to you and you kept going on about her mother.

We're pretty sure Brandi's mother was Shelley Moffatt.

A girl me and Marlene went to school with.

And Shelley disappeared.

-When you were kids?

-Yeah.

And she's never been found.

How come you never mentioned any of this before?

Because it was a long time ago.

She was looking up some guy online.

-Who?

-Nathan something.

-He was at the pub last night.

-Nathan Williamson?

That's it.

He's the guy you pointed out to me?

Your first boyfriend.

Yeah.

Back when dinosaurs were still roaming the earth.

[chuckles] Did Brandi say why she was interested in him?

No.

Sorry, she didn't.

The car seat fits nicely here.

And that way, I can keep an eye on him when I'm serving customers.

Is that a good idea?

What if somebody spills their pint over wee Barry?

Where else do you suggest?

Upstairs?

Sure, didn't I get you the baby monitor?

Are you on glue?

There's no way I'm leaving this child on his own.

-Not for a single second.

-[scoffs] Hire a nanny?

Have you seen The Hand that Rocks the Cradle, Seamie?

No, there's only one thing for it.

Hire more bar staff?

Sell the pub.

When I was talking to Brandi, I, um... I mentioned Nathan Williamson.

I said that he might be the father of Shelley's child.

So, Brandi thinks Nathan is her dad?

[knocking at door] Hiya.

Well, is Chloe OK?

She's fine.

Just planning a chill-out day with Ross.

So, what's been going on?

Uh... I-I'll go.

Yeah, and will you give Nathan Williamson a ring, see if he's had any visitors of late?

Yeah, will do.

[door closes] A few months ago, somebody started sending me and Marlene stuff, supposedly from long-lost Shelley.

We've been trying to work out who.

Yesterday, we found out that Brandi could be Shelley's daughter.

So, Brandi was sending you the stuff?

Well, that's what we're thinking I knew something was going on.

So, your friend went missing when you were kids.

Why didn't you just tell me?

[sighs] Cos it was too painful.

[knocking at door] Boss, Nathan's not answering his phone.

-Why don't we pay him a visit?

-Yeah.

[hammering] [Eve] Hello, Nathan.

Eve.

It's been a long time.

Almost 20 years.

Trouble?

Uh, frame is rotten.

Just giving it a clean, managed to break the glass.

I heard yous got Nicole's baby back.

Yeah, that's right.

Safe and well, yeah.

That girl that took him, what... what was she playing at?

Funny enough, it's her we wanted to ask you about.

-Me?

-[Marlene] Yeah.

Do you remember Shelley Moffatt?

Shelley?

Just about.

You're not gonna tell me they've found her?

No, no.

Nothing like that, but... the girl who took Nicole's baby, we think she might be Shelley's daughter.

I never knew Shelley had a kid.

What's this got to do with me?

Look, there's no easy way to ask this.

Uh... Could you be this girl's father?

You mean, did I sleep with Shelley?

Well, did you?

No, I didn't.

I was going out with you.

Look, there's no way I'm this girl's dad!

-Fine.

-OK.

Thanks, Nathan.

Sorry for bothering you.

She goes by the name Brandi, this girl.

We think she'll come looking for you.

If she turns up, I'll ring you.

Straight away.

That's great.

Right, we'll get out of your hair then.

Good to see you, Eve.

You too.

I'm pretty sure he's lying.

Do you remember Claudia Preston had that big party?

The one I didn't go to cos my ma had grounded me?

Yeah, that's the one.

Well, I don't know if he saw me, but I had a pretty good view of Nathan and Shelley... kissing.

Well, actually, no, it was more than kissing.

They were all over each other.

So, my boyfriend was cheating on me and you didn't tell me because...?

Well, I was worried you'd shoot the messenger.

And, also... Eve, I was... I was with a girl when I saw them, so I couldn't.

Sorry.

-[Eve] OK.

-[sighs] So, what you're saying is there is a real possibility that Nathan is Brandi's father?

So, Nicole wants to sell the pub?

That's what she said.

Nah, she doesn't mean it.

It'll just be a reaction to the shock of that Brandi one taking the baby.

Right, I'm going to take this wee one out for some fresh air.

That's a good idea, love.

What we need is a garden.

Babies thrive on air and space.

And light.

Let's face it, there's not much of that in a dingy pub.

Seamie says you're thinking of selling this place.

Not thinking.

My mind's made up.

There's no way I can stand behind that bar and raise a child at the same time.

Our time in the Commodore is over.

I hope you'll put a good word in for me.

Sorry?

What?

With the new owners.

[sighs] Um, Sarge?

You might want to take a look at some of this stuff.

OK, where's this from?

Me and Callum searched Brandi's place.

There's loads of photos of this girl.

Shelley.

Is that the same Shelley that was supposed to have sent you flowers?

Yeah, cub.

It is, yeah.

Why does Brandi have so many photos of her?

Well, me and the Inspector think that Shelley was Brandi's mum.

[exhales] Right.

Um... we found this letter.

It's addressed to Brandi and signed "Granny".

You might want to give it a read.

Yeah.

Cheers, cub.

Yeah.

I had a life before I got together with that woman.

Lead singer of a country and western group.

We toured the length and breadth of the West Midlands.

And now she wants to lock me up in a semi-detached with a garden.

Can you see me mowing a lawn?

You're not in favour, then, of this selling-up notion?

[scoffs] Fair enough.

All we need to do is organise a bit of a hooley.

Get everybody to remind Nicole that she's the leading lady and this is her stage.

The penny will drop soon enough that she can't live without the place.

Do you know, Seamie, you've had some bad ideas in your time.

That is not one of them.

[taps countertop] I, uh, need to ask you something.

Shoot.

After Shelley went missing, did you go round to see her mother?

Yeah.

Why didn't you tell me?

How do you know about that?

Well, this is a letter Shelley's mother wrote to Brandi after Brandi tracked her down.

What does she say?

That you "had a cheek to turn up on her doorstep when it was your fault Shelley disappeared."

Eve, why on earth did you go round there?

What were you hoping to achieve?

[sighs] I don't know.

I suppose I just wanted to say I was sorry, you know?

About Shelley.

But her mum went mad.

She was horrible and nasty.

But why?

You're not to blame for Shelley going missing.

Well, it was grief talking.

Her lashing out.

I couldn't face running into that woman again, so... I had to get out of Port Devine.

Really?

That's why you moved away?

You didn't even say goodbye.

I know.

And I'm sorry, Marlene.

It's not me you should be apologising to, it's your mum.

My mum?

Why?

Well, you know, she's always thought you left Port Devine to get away from her.

And she's been breaking her heart ever since.

-[knocking at door] -Come in!

You need to hear this.

So, this fella in here picked up a hitchhiker earlier this morning.

It was only after he dropped her off, did he see Brandi's picture on the news.

Well, was it definitely Brandi he picked up?

Got to be.

The hitchhiker matches Brandi's description and she even talked about working in a pub.

Where'd he drop her off?

Way out of town, a place called Patrick's Peak.

Very close to Nathan Williamson's place.

Hm-hmm.

What time did your witness last see Brandi?

Um, just before nine.

OK, so that was about an hour before when we went round to see Nathan.

Eve, that broken window.

Brandi.

It could be Brandi.

Now what are you two talking about?

There's a possibility Brandi broke into Nathan Williamson's farm.

OK.

How far do you reckon Nathan's farm is from where me, you and Shelley were camping the night she went missing?

Half a mile, tops.

-You're not... -I don't know.

Callum, can you go through Barry Pettigrew's journals?

They're on Marlene's desk.

Just check if Nathan Williamson was interviewed at the time of Shelley's disappearance.

Yeah, sure.

Guys, are you gonna keep us in the loop here, or what?

Yeah, we're just wondering if Nathan had something to do with Shelley's disappearance.

Because, if he did, Brandi could be in serious danger.

So, if Shelley's Brandi's mum and Nathan's Brandi's dad... that means her dad could have killed her mum.

-I feel sorry for her, like.

-[phone rings] You've changed your tune.

Yeah.

Well, maybe I didn't get the full picture.

Callum.

Lads!

Barry did interview Nathan all those years ago.

He told Barry he was at a gig in Belfast the night Shelley went missing.

But he was lying.

Are you absolutely sure?

Yeah, one hundred percent.

So, the band that Nathan claimed he saw, they didn't perform that night.

It was a Sunday.

The venue never opened on a Sunday night.

Why did nobody check his statement at the time?

Because he wasn't of significant interest to the investigation.

Well, he is now.

Thanks, Callum.

Nathan doesn't have an alibi for the night Shelley disappeared.

[Ryan] Mr Williamson!

-[bangs on door] -It's the police!

Come to the door!

Do you wanna try the handle?

Police!

I take it Nathan lives alone.

Yep.

I think his parents are long dead.

[Ryan] Sarge!

She's out here!

[Marlene] We've found her!

Brandi!

-This is gonna hurt.

I'm sorry.

-[she whimpers] [Brandi cries] It's so good to see you.

I'm so sorry about the baby.

I'm so sorry.

Sorry!

It's OK.

We don't have to talk about that now.

What we need to do now, is we need to find Nathan.

Why did he tie you up?

I knew he was in the house, but he wasn't answering the door.

So I broke in.

I just wanted to know if he was my dad.

-Where's Nathan now?

-I don't know.

Just seen him.

He's heading up that way!

-What?

-You stay with Brandi!

What's up there?

-Uh, some old farm buildings.

-Go.

-Can we get a car up there?

-You are joking me, right?

What happens now?

I take you to the police station.

Not yet.

Please.

I need to know what happened to my mum.

[Marlene] Nathan!

Please.

There's no need for this.

I'll talk to him.

Nathan!

What's this all about?

Haven't you worked it out yet?

I need you to tell us.

Shelley turned up at the house that night.

She told me she'd had my baby.

And her mum forced her to give the baby away.

Shelley was desperate to get our baby back.

She screamed at me that I had to help her.

So, you are Brandi's father?

Yes.

I am.

-It was an accident.

-What was, Nathan?

Shelley was in such a state.

Crying, shouting!

We were arguing at the top of the stairs.

She started hitting me.

And... I pushed her away.

She fell.

By the time I got to the bottom of the stairs, she was dead!

Nathan, no!

Nathan!

You're not the only one who's responsible for Shelley's death.

How do you work that out?

Why do you think she was so upset that night?

I was young, Nathan, but I wasn't stupid.

I could see how you and Shelley looked at each other.

That night, me and Marlene and Shelley were camping, Marlene went out to get some water and... and I took my chance.

I called Shelley everything.

Every stinking word I could think of.

I said she was a dirty slag.

So, you see, Nathan, that's why Shelley ran away that night.

It was me.

That's why she was so upset.

She fell down the stairs, Eve.

You didn't kill her.

I should have rung 999.

[Eve] Why didn't you?

My mum was in really poor health.

If I'd gone to prison, it would have killed her.

There's no excuse.

I... I wanted to save my own skin.

I hate myself for what I did!

For what I didn't do!

I've spent the last 20 years hating myself!

Jumping off here and now, it'll be a release!

[officers shout] Stop!

Stop!

Don't you dare!

I need to know where my mum is!

Please.

You owe me that at least.

Nathan?

Nathan, look at me.

She's right.

We all need to know where Shelley is.

OK.

I'll show you.

Stay there.

[Eve] Slowly.

You're OK, Nathan.

Just watch your feet there.

And over.

That's it.

You understand what I have to do, don't you?

Nathan Williamson, I'm arresting you on suspicion of... [Eve continues indistinctly] I buried Shelley under this tree.

It all happened so long ago.

I'd nearly convinced myself it was some kind of bad dream.

When I saw you in the bar last night... you've got her eyes.

It all come flooding back to me.

I'm so sorry.

Please... don't hate me.

Come on.

Let's go.

I'm really sorry for everything that I've done.

How did you get Shelley's friendship bracelet?

Her mum?

Yeah.

She sent it to me in a letter.

Told me you two were to blame for what happened to Shelley.

Aren't you going to arrest me for taking Nicole's baby?

[Eve] Yeah.

-Sergeant.

-[Marlene] Yeah.

Brandi McClure, I am arresting you on suspicion of kidnapping.

You do not have to say anything, but I must caution you if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court, it may harm your defence.

If you do say anything, it may be given in evidence.

Can you look after her, cub?

[Marlene sighs] To think she's been here... all this time.

Poor Shelley.

[sighs] What's all this?

Just your friends and neighbours clubbing together to show you how much you matter to them.

Oh, I get it.

You're turning on the emotional blackmail so that I'll change my mind about selling this place.

Well, good luck with that.

Nicole, can we not talk about this?

I'd love to stop and chat, but this wee baby's bum needs changing.

If you'll excuse me.

[sighs] Seamie, all of this, it's not gonna work.

So, what do you suggest?

It's time to get the big guns out.

Where's my guitar?

How long is this gonna take?

We're just waiting on transport to run you up to Belfast now.

OK.

I suppose this is goodbye.

I'm gonna go to prison, aren't I?

I don't know.

I just wanted to say that, um... Um... I did care for you, Ryan.

Before I messed everything up.

You cared for me?

Yeah.

I still do.

[sighs] Shame I didn't tell you before.

And now it's too late.

I love you, Brandi.

And it's not too late.

[chuckles] What are you gonna do?

Visit me in prison?

Wait here.

Oh.

I can't really leave, can I?

Nathan Williamson?

Oh, I never would have thought he would have that in him.

He swears it was an accident.

And you were right about Shelley being pregnant.

Hmm.

I have a nose for that sort of thing.

Always have had.

Marlene thinks that you blame yourself for me leaving Port Devine when I was 17.

Where would she get a daft idea like that?

I know.

I told her she got the wrong end of the stick.

I said Lois Dunlop knows fine rightly I left because I was so upset after Shelley disappeared.

Mind you, I'm sure there's plenty folk would say that... [chuckles] I am hard work, a bit of an old battle-axe.

They would.

But I'm not one of them.

It broke my heart to leave you, Mum.

Sure, I'm just glad to have you back.

Something catch your eye, Seamie?

Hmm.

I was just thinking, that Lois Dunlop, she's a fine-looking woman.

[Clint] She is indeed.

She's single.

So are you.

Why don't you go for it?

I might just do that.

I was gonna give you that... the night that you dumped me.

-Is that what I think it is?

-[Ryan] Yeah.

It's an engagement ring.

No matter what happens, I want us to be together.

[laughs] This is mad!

Yeah.

Brandi McClure... I love you.

Will you marry me?

Of course I will.

[laughs] And... I love you too.

[cries] [music plays in the background] [Seamie] Thanks for helping with all of this.

Ah, well.

That's what friends are for.

Well... I was wondering if we could become more than friends.

Sorry?

Mr McCarthy!

What sort of woman do you think I am?

We're getting on so well.

And you think that that gives you the right to stick your tongue down my throat?

Never heard of buying a girl dinner first?

[Marlene chuckles] Here he is.

All snuggly and warm.

And, uh, am I forgiven?

For letting Brandi take him?

Of course.

Not that I'm ever going to let him out of my sight ever again.

Aye, so, what's this I hear about you wanting to sell up?

Well, I'm just being practical, Marlene.

There's no way that I can run this place and look after this absolute dote at the same time.

I've written a wee poem to honour Baby Barry here.

Of course.

But it's also a homage... Nicole, to your place at the heart of this community.

I'd like to read it now.

Please.

Um, somebody stop him.

Do your worst, Seamie.

It's not going to make a pick of difference.

[Clint] Seamie!

Turn that music off will you?

[clears throat] What's with the guitar and the ten-gallon hat?

I was wearing this hat the night I met my wife.

Wasn't wearing it by the end of the night though, yeow!

-[laughter] -Clint!

Stop!

Anyway, I'm wearing it this evening because I've written a new verse for our special song.

The song you wrote for me?

Divine Lady Devine?

Divine Baby Devine.

[Clint plays guitar] That is clever, right enough.

You're our very own angel Our bundle of joy We love you from Lurgan To sweet Ballintoy Baby so lovely Baby so fine We love you dearly Baby Devine [cheering and applause] Nicole, I want to remind you that this wee man has three parents.

And he will never have to spend a moment alone when you're behind that bar in your rightful place.

Where everybody needs you to be.

Am I right?

[all] Yes!

Me and Callum will look after our son.

And that's a solid-gold promise.

-Am I right, Callum?

-You certainly are.

So, can we persuade you to change your mind?

What's the Commodore without the Queen Bee, hey?

[cheering] Oh, Clint!

Of course I don't want to sell the pub.

I'm so sorry.

It's just... when this wee man went missing, I've just... I've never felt pain like it.

I know.

I know.

Right, everybody join in for the last verse!

-Includes you, Other Daddy.

-Ach, try and stop me.

Baby so lovely Baby so fine We love you dearly Baby Devine One more time!

Baby so lovely Baby so fine We love you dearly Baby Devine Dunwoody!
