What? No, oh, no, no, no.
No, no, no. Shit. Shit, Cas.
Did they go in the office?
Did they go in the office, Cas?
Because the... because the money's in the office.
The money for Aday is in the office.
40,000 pounds.
No, Cas... Yes, it was.
Listen... No, hold on! Well, we...
You-you could just shout at me or we can figure out how the fuck...
No, no, no, no! Don't tell the police!
Why would you tell the police?
Because it's 40 grand in cash!
How are you gonna explain 40 fucking grand in cash
to the fucking...
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, yes.
I should've told you, and I didn't, and I'm sorry.
But, we are where we are,
and Aday needs the money today or we're fucked.
So, when the police go, would you please see if it's still there?
Thank you.
I'm gonna call Aday right now and see if I can re...
I'll make another...
Well, I'm gonna call him. Yeah...
How are the kids?
Oh, jeez.
That's all we need.
Can't you persuade her to...
choose another instrument?
Trombone it is then.
Yes, I'm just about to start.
I'm heading down to the river now.

Quickly!
Stop being a baby!
Pull it harder!
No, pull it!
Pull!
Step back.
Hey!
Oh! Breathe! Breathe!
Shit.
Oh, God.
Come on. Come on.
Oh, fuck.
It's okay, I'm helping you.
Can you breathe?
Nod if you can breathe. That's good.
Show me where it hurts.
It's okay, it's okay.
My eyes hurt as well.
You need to see a doctor.
- No... - Gotta take you to a hospital.
- No. - Should call the police.
No!
- What's your name? - Epona.
Look, Epona.
I don't know what I'm doing.
All right? And, uh, you might have a serious injury.
I can't... I can't just walk away.
Don't... He'll kill me.
Who'll kill you?
Where do you live?
Just drive straight. I'll tell you the way.
Who was that boy?
What boy?
It's okay. It's all right. I'm just getting you some water.
See?
Have you got some salt?
Salt? Uh...
Yeah, in the side pocket, I think.
I used to work with young people.
I was in social care, so...
I know that doesn't mean I know anything about you,
but, um, what I'm saying is I've talked with kids
who've been through stuff.
I understand problems.
You won't understand mine.
Okay.
I'll go first.
My name's Sam, and...
I am extremely pleased to meet you, Epona.
There, see?
Now we're communicating.
Yeah, well, don't go changing your Facebook status just yet.
All right. What else? Uh...
I'm married.
I have three children, two girls and a boy.
My oldest girl's actually about your age, so...
I "get" crazy.
That's what you do then? You work with kids?
No, not anymore.
Me and my wife run a garden center.
Right. That's a bit different.
Yeah.
Yeah, that was the point.
Is it something at home?
You know...
it's easier to sometimes say things to people you don't know.
It's a dog's name. Sam.
Where is it I'm taking you?
Carry on till you hit the sea.
I live on Osea.
Causeway opens in about 20 minutes.
Causeway?
Yeah. Gotta wait till the tide's out.
Thank you.
Shit.
Aday, it's Sam. Uh, look.
Look, we've been burgled. Uh...
Please, will you call me back?
Just call me. Thank you.
God...
Come on.
Fuck!
Stupid...
I'm waiting for this call. This important call.
Maybe you shouldn't come over.
Why?
Why shouldn't I come over?
Well, drive then.
You can't fall off.
You okay?
Yeah...
Just feels familiar.
Have you been here before?
No.
My granddad was stationed here during the war.
That's how I know about it, but...
I-I've never been here.
You've not got long.
Causeway closes at 3:50 today.
Won't open again till morning.
Look!
- It's Jesus and the sea. - Hm?
It's a festival. We do it every year, but this year's special.
They're opening it up, letting outsiders in.
Turn it into a big music festival.
Music festival?
- What, with bands? - Yeah.
- We need the money. - When's all that happening?
Soon. It's just a rehearsal.
How many of you live here?
Ninety-three.
Ninety-three?
Doing all this?
You wouldn't believe what these people are capable of.
Ha! Hoo! Ha! Huh!
- What's all this? - It's part of the festival.
They're the Sajora.
They came from the sea once a year to sniff out evil.
If they find it, they cut it out.
Everything here is either salt or soil.
- Salt or soil? - Yeah.
Sea or land.
Just stuff we believe in.
Traditions.
You should just go.
Just leave.
You know I'm not gonna do that.
All right.
Take me to the Martins.
They run the pub. They're good people.
Epona, look...
If there's something hurting you here
or scaring you...
you can tell me.
You're a nice man, Sam.
Thank you for caring about me.
I found her in the woods
um, on the mainland. Uh...
I just found her. I-I didn't...
I didn't know...
Come with me, me love.
Playing, was it? Little game?
Please don't tell my dad.
Just messin' was it, love? Little game?
Shut up, you fuckin' idiot.
- That'll be it, some kind of game. - Look,
I'm not a doctor, so I don't...
- I don't know if I... if I... - Ah, don't worry.
Now, what can I get you?
We've snacks. There's crisps, nuts, fresh sandwiches.
Got a lovely guest ale on at the moment...
Fuckhead!
In here now!
Frederick Nicholas Charrington.
As in Charrington's Brewery?
Built this whole island.
He was in the East End one day
when he saw a woman, surrounded by her starving kids,
begging her husband not to spend their last few pence on booze.
The man snaps, beats the living flip out of her.
Charrington steps in.
He gets knocked into a gutter, and when he looks up,
what's he see there above this raging drunk's head
but his own name. Charrington.
Found God in that moment.
Bought Osea, took a bunch of drunks here
to build a perfect sober world, and...
here we are.
Here we are, in a pub.
In a pub, yeah. Yeah!
In a pub!
Can I use your phone? I-I can't get a signal.
Oh, they're doing work on the main exchange this weekend.
It's an upgrade to handle the traffic for the festival.
I mean, it's intermittent now, but come 4:00,
it'll be out for the whole weekend.
Landlines and mobiles,
so if you're out, we'll be out as well.
There's this man, I really need to phone him.
- What man's this? - This guy.
Aday. I just...
Aday? What's that? Is that an African name, is it?
Yeah, I think so. Maybe Nigerian.
Oh. Yeah.
Yeah.
Big African community on the mainland.
Not Nigerians. Somalis.
I mean, some say they cause trouble,
but I don't think that's fair.
Not after what they've been through.
I mean, some of them have been child soldiers, Sam.
Yeah. Lots of East Europeans, too.
So you need to speak to this man, do you?
Yeah.
We got burgled.
- Oh, no! - Yeah.
Not our house. Our business.
We run a garden center, and they broke in.
- My goodness. - Mm.
So, where's this? Where are you from?
London. Now. I mean.
We're, uh... we're trying to move.
There's a planning thing going on today,
actually, which is why all this is...
- It's so... - Goodness, what a big day for you.
Oh, I know!
Well, here you go.
It's a small consolation, but still.
How is she? Epona?
Oh. Physically, she's fine, but...
I do think it's beginning to hit home,
what she was about to...
She's not said anything,
but kids these days, they mess around, don't they?
There was a boy with her.
- Really? - Mm.
Oh, she said she was on her own.
There was a young boy with her, glasses and curly hair.
Oh. I don't know who that could be.
Well, he's definitely not from Osea.
Well, I-I think she's hiding something.
What would she be hiding?
What do you know about her father?
Hold on a minute, Sam.
Jason's a good man.
He's a bit rough around the edges, as are many here,
but they're all good people. I promise you that.
Do you have children?
Yeah, three.
- Two girls and a boy. - Oh, wonderful.
- What a great blessing. - Mm.
One never given to me and my wife.
Seven pregnancies, Sam. Seven.
Not one came to term. Not one.
No. Oh, well.
I guess it wasn't God's plan.
Oh, well, we get by. We're happy. We live.
But deep inside, yeah,
something is missing, yeah.
Well, you're welcome to stay.
I'd love that.
We have a room for you upstairs. Room number one,
- it's on the house for you. - Oh.
I know you'll be wantin' to get back to your family.
- Yeah. - Be desperate, today of all days.
- Jesus and the sea? - Esus and the sea.
Esus was sort of like a-a Celtic war god.
Some do choose to make a link with our savior.
Early Christian scholars in England were druidic.
Not many people know that.
We're using our history for this festival.
There's a lot of it here.
And we need this to work.
Times have been hard.
We've been through some bad things.
So, just out for a walk in those woods, then?
Uh, yeah. Yeah, I was just...
By that stream?
Long way from home on such an important day.
My wife says she recognizes you.
- Excuse me? - Yeah.
She said there's something familiar about your face.
I've never been here before.
Oh, well.
She's a funny fish, my wife.
Look, there's something going on with Epona.
I need to know you get that.
Sam...
It's okay.
Epona is safe. You saved her.
You saved this child.
Right?
Now, let's get you off Osea before this causeway closes
and you have to stay here in paradise forever.
Now, that is not good.
_
Sam?
He's not there!
Danny! He's not up at the big house.
They don't know where he is.
How long till the causeway closes?
Fifteen, maybe 20 minutes.
No, I-I-I need to get off this island.
Well, you might be out of luck.
Like I said, we have a room for you.
Number one, no key. No one has locks around here.
It's yours free of charge, if you want it.
No, I need to get off this fucking island now!
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I just...
Look, all right.
I'm gonna tell you something.
My wife just texted me. The burglars took only one thing.
Cash.
40,000 pounds in cash.
Why would you have 40,000 pounds in cash?
The man I told you I have to call, Aday.
He's a planning officer,
and we're bribing him to get our plans approved.
They're in final committee.
Today, this afternoon.
This is... this is not... who we are.
It's really not. But, it was the only way.
They said that they weren't... they... they...
They said they were gonna turn it down. He told me they would.
I need... I need to talk to him. I need a phone that works.
So, who else knew about this money?
Oh, just me.
- And... - And Aday.
Sam, you know this man's robbed you, don't you?
You tell him you know.
He's just got greedy, that's all.
You tell him you know he did it,
say you're calling the police unless he plays ball.
He's just chancing it.
He's not gonna wanna go down for burglary. You tell him.
I-I-I really need to get to a phone.
I can't even get a signal. I got that text,
- and then it died again. - Look, I'm gonna go to the pier,
Danny can't be far.
And we'll get you over that causeway.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for all this.
Don't be silly.
After what you did for Epona?
Helping people is what this place is all about.
Looks like you're staying.
No, I can't stay.
You can't leave.
How's Epona doing?
I remember you so well.
Excuse me?
Making those appeals on the TV.
I remember thinking,
my God, what a man.
To lose how you lost.
Your precious little angel.
And people getting angry and wanting to blame immigrants.
And you come out afterwards and say,
"No, don't. Don't blame them."
That was a long time ago.
Pain doesn't know time.
Must hurt going back into those woods.
It does.
That's the point.
Hm.
Most people are scared of pain.
They don't know how warm it can be.
Tell me, Sam.
Did you really think we shouldn't blame them?
Weren't you tempted just to hurt someone?
I need to use the toilet.
Yeah, use the nice one.
The one upstairs.
Right, what did you do? What did you do?!
Get him out of here...
Why is he here?!
Get out of here!
- That's my daughter! - I know.
Oh, now, here we go.
Fuck!
He had a fucking gun!
Well, he's a farmer, Sam.
He turns up with a gun
because someone's asking some questions.
Doesn't... doesn't that say something to you?
Look, Jason's not dangerous.
Really?
She looked terrified. Terrified of him.
She's not scared.
She's angry, that's all.
She didn't want us to say anything.
But it's her dad, we had to.
We're all people of God here.
Now, I know not everyone believes, and that's fine.
It's a modern world. We don't judge.
But we look after one another, take care of each other.
That girl is a daughter to us all.
We will not let her be hurt.
Sorry! Sorry!
Danny, where've you been?
- This man needs to make the causeway! - Oh, shit.
You better hurry, mate. Causeway's closing now.
Mate! It's fucking closing!
- Good luck with the planning fella. - Yeah.
- Hope it goes like you deserve. - Thank you.
Go! Go on, then!
Hey!
Wait!
Hold on!
I just wanna talk!
It ain't right.
She's your girl, she's your daughter.
After what they took from you?
This island is a fucking mess.
And he walks in and says no!
That fucking cunt up at the big house!
Why's he leading us?
'Cause he's in the big house?
Fuck the big house!
He's a fucking cunt, and we all know it!
Even he knows he's a cunt. That's how much of a cunt he is.
He hasn't done anything more than mess things up.
That boy...
And he comes in here, fucking saying things about you,
holding on to your daughter!
Needs to be taken, J...
I need a piss.
What... For God's sake.
- What are you doing? - No, no. It's all right. It's ok... it's okay.
- I'm here. - What?
Here, in this room. Staying here.
- Were you watching me? - No.
No, I didn't know you... They said I could...
They said I could have this room.
- This is my room. - I know, but they... they said...
Get out.
- They... - Get the fuck out!
Look, I didn't mean to shock you.
The bed was disturbed,
but it didn't look like there was a person in it.
Well, there was a person in it.
- Yes, I know that... - And that is my fucking room.
Okay? I paid for it. It is mine.
- Yeah. - Okay.
God.
Do you at least want a drink?
I don't drink.
All right, gimme one of those.
- Thought you didn't drink. - I'm not looking for a sponsor.
Look, I'm sorry if I was a little...
I'm not normally like this. It's just I was asleep.
Standing over someone when they're sleeping, that's creepy.
What the fuck are you doing?
I need to make a call. I have a planning thing going through,
and, right now, if I don't make a call in the next 20 minutes,
it will completely collapse,
and I might lose my business and my home,
and none of the fucking phones are working.
My phone's working.
What?
Yeah. I mean, it's cutting out a little bit
because of the work on the exchange,
but generally, it's fine.
They said all the lines were down!
Can I use it, please?
Um, can I call my wife first? She doesn't know where I am.
Sure, but you only got three minutes.
Engineers stop work at 5:15,
and then there really will be no lines until Monday at all.
Can I take this outside?
No! Fuck you, that's my phone.
Yeah.
Aday! Aday, it's Sam.
No, I'm... I'm, uh, I'm in a place
where my phone doesn't get reception.
Now? You're going in right now?
Okay, all right. I know what you did, okay?
I know.
Aday, only the money was missing.
Only you and I knew about it.
How do you... All right, stop.
No, stop. I'm gonna tell you what's gonna happen.
You are gonna go in there,
and you're gonna pass our applications.
Listen, you're gonna go in and you're gonna pass our plans,
or the next call I make is to the police.
Do you understand? Yeah.
I-I-I know there'll be repercussions for me,
but you will go down for burglary, and you...
you will lose your job.
What do you mean?
What hospital?
Your wife? What emergency?
So, you have proof?
All right. All right, yeah, I'm...
Um, I made a mistake.
No, no, no, I only... I mentioned the police...
No, no, I'm not gonna call them because I was wrong.
I thought something wrong.
Aday. No, no, no, Aday!
Don't turn it down! No, we can fix this! We can!
Aday!
Aday...
So...
what did I just witness?
Look, do you wanna, uh, talk about what just happened?
So, you here for the festival?
I am.
I got my PhD on the Essex Witch Trials
and perceptions of women in Civil War England.
And they're basing the festival on a Celtic Cromlach,
and they wanna imbue it with Osea's history.
What's a Cromlach?
It's like a Celtic bacchanal.
Charrington revived it.
His big idea was to take criminals and addicts
and give them a few days to blow off steam
so that they'd be fine for the rest of the year.
And how did that work out?
It was a fucking blast.
Three people died.
I think you should, you know...
talk about it.
You know, all this stiff upper whatever shit.
What do you think of these people?
- What do you mean? - Just...
I think they're great. I've been here a few times.
They've always been amazing. Well...
they're a little, "don't stray from the path,"
but they're good people.
Protective of their way of life, but why not?
If you had a place like this, wouldn't you wanna protect it?
You got kids, then?
Three. Two girls and a boy.
Nice.
I got two girls.
You married?
Kind of.
What's he do?
Your kinda husband?
Nothing.
He does nothing.
Excuse me, do you know where the owners are? The Martins?
So...
This is you, is it?
Excuse me, I just spoke.
Words.
You're nice.
I like your lips.
- You didn't make the causeway! - Yeah.
- I didn't make it. - Larry, why don't you go home?
You're not supposed to be here now.
Who's gonna stop me from being here, eh?
I think you know the answer to that.
Go on.
Sorry about Larry.
- He's a good man. - Really?
He... doesn't seem like a good man.
Oh, well,
we remember him as a boy. He was such a loving child.
When we lost most of the oyster beds, people changed.
- Some found anger. - Yeah.
I put Mrs. Paffard in room one, love.
Yeah, and then you put him in it, too, you fucking dog brain.
- Yeah. - Oh, I did! Good lord.
We've only the one room spare.
They'll have to share then.
What?
Or get out.
Don't worry, I'll get me tools.
Put a curtain up, you won't know the difference.
A curtain? A fucking curtain?
Look, causeway opens at 7:28.
I'll wake you at 6:30 with an Osea breakfast,
make sure you get off safe and sound.
It's the only way.
They're opening the hotel there in a few months, The Seabird,
but for now... That okay?
- Do we have a choice? - Yeah.
Swim.
- Where's Epona? - She's safe.
- That wasn't what I asked. - Look,
I don't think there's anything going on, I promise you.
But, I hear what you're saying.
She's staying with us tonight. She's had a day.
She's doing much better, looking a lot more cheerful.
Love, maybe we should fetch her
so that Sam can see she's doing fine.
I think you should grow some fucking balls
is what you should do.
Oh, my wife.
Eh? Her bark is something, but she got no bite.
She's soft as caramel.
But, it's getting late.
She's very protective of the girl, so, uh...
I'll bring her to you in the morning, I promise.
But, in the meantime,
I suggest you settle in,
and get good and pissed.
Drinks are on the house for both of you.
Doesn't sound too bad.
Jess!
Oh, here he is! The man of the hour!
Don't be like that. Lemme get you a drink. You all right?
- Thank you, yeah. Maybe later. - You sure?
Let me take you to that table over there.
Hey! Hey, this is Sam.
Hi.
Oh, my God!
This one's for you, Sam!

I saw things, Jess.
Flesh and mutilation, and her top covered in blood.
What you went through,
I don't have a clue what that is like.
Something's going on.
What, the dry run of the festival?
It's like I've been here before.
You know you haven't, right?
Grief wants mayhem and chaos and havoc.
It wants its pound of flesh.
There's no phones.
Causeway doesn't open until 4:06.
It's coming!
The darkness is coming.
