Why wouldn't you tell me

you brought somebody on

to watch the grounds?

It must've slipped my mind.

But he's a good bloke.

Oh, he's a good bloke?

A good bloke who fucks some girl

in the middle of the woods,

like an animal?

Come on, you know what

these country folk are like.

Come on.

David... David, wake up.

- What?

- Wake up.

There's someone downstairs.

I can hear them.

Let me go downstairs.

Go.

No! No!

Susan, let me in.

What's the matter?

What's the matter?

Baby, look at me, breathe.

- What's wrong?

- There's a man in the hall.

Where?

There's no one in the hall.

Baby, I promise you. Look at me.

There's nobody in the hall.

They'd have to have passed me.

Open your eyes.

Susan, look at me, darling.

Breathe.

It's okay.

There's no one now.

I promise you.

There's nobody there.

It's all right, darling.

It's okay.

It's okay, don't worry.

There was somebody there.

It's nice to see a fire

in this old hearth again.

Well, we've checked everywhere.

No sign of a break-in.

Well, there has to be. I saw him.

He had to get in here somehow.

You say there's nothing missing?

Well, there's nothing I can see.

Right, then, all I can do is report it.

Not much else, I'm afraid.

Hey, I didn't imagine it.

I'm not suggesting that you did.

All I'm saying is that

the only evidence we have,

or the only thing we can go on,

is your description.

Sure, I mean, I only saw him

for a second, but...

Yes.

Quite.

Well, naturally,

you'll keep us informed if -

if we get murdered in our beds,

I'll be sure to let you know.

Your business take you away

from the house most days?

Yeah, I commute to London.

- Oh, big smoke.

- Yeah.

What's your line?

Corporate events.

Oh, right.

Well, what's that, then?

Well, I organize events

like car shows

and functions and networking,

mostly for executives.

Oh.

Well...

It's a big old house

you've taken on here.

I dare say it'll take

some getting used to.

My suggestion is, uh,

you change the locks.

That's it?!

It's a good idea as a precaution.

Exactly.

Peace of mind.

Good night.

Hey, babe.

Hey.

Is this the same lock

as the other door?

Aye.

Cheers.

There you go.

Feel safer now?

Yeah.

What a way to spend a day,

changing all the locks.

Still, no one will be

able to get in now, right?

You know, I was thinking.

Do you think it was maybe

one of the construction workers?

Because they had a key, right?

Maybe.

Well, don't you think

that we should tell that detective?

Look, if you want to start

pestering him, okay.

But I don't, all right?

What's gotten into you?

I'm going to go work

in the garden.

Hello?

Hi, Susan.

It's Charles.

Hi.
