00:00My name is Hannah Martin, and we are the parents of Sinead Martin.
00:19I was asked to bring something personal of our daughters.
00:27Something that would encapsulate what Sinead means to us.
00:37Our daughter doesn't find meaning in things.
00:42She finds it in family, her friends, love, happiness.
00:50Nothing that I can show you here today.
00:58Sinead told us a joke when she was seven.
01:03Knock, knock.
01:04Who's there?
01:07Ice cream.
01:09Ice cream who?
01:10I scream so you can hear me.
01:20If you have Sinead, please let her go.
01:32And Sinead, love, I scream so you can hear me.
01:43Beth Huia, can you confirm Colin Friends is a suspect?
01:51Thank you everybody for your time.
02:32Mr. Friends, where were you on the evening of November 10th between the hours of 6.30
02:50and 10pm?
02:52As I've said, I left work at the usual time.
02:54I went home, I made my wife soup, and then I spent an hour or two at the gun club.
02:59Your wife can confirm the time you arrived home.
03:01My wife?
03:02My wife's not well.
03:06My clients already answered those questions.
03:07I suggest you cut to the chase.
03:09Yesterday when Sergeant Harris asked you when you first came to the region, you advised
03:12September 2020, three years ago.
03:16That wasn't your first time at Mount Affinity.
03:18You lived here back in 2006, Mr. Friends.
03:23Why'd you lie to us?
03:31I didn't lie.
03:34I didn't lie.
03:37We moved here three years ago.
03:39And I stayed here briefly from late 2006, working on a project at the mill.
03:43You were here at the same time Emma Wilson and Gabriel Peters were murdered.
03:47They can't be serious.
03:48Where'd you get those scratches, Mr. Friends?
03:51I'm not sure.
03:53I'm requesting a voluntary DNA sample.
03:55Access to your electronic equipment, including home computer, laptop, cell phone.
03:59All without a warrant.
04:00I need...
04:01I need air.
04:02We're shenanigans.
04:03I'm calling an ambulance.
04:04Look at me.
04:05Relax.
04:06You've had a panic attack before.
04:07You know what this is, yes?
04:08Breathe in through your nose.
04:09In and out slowly.
04:10You know what to do.
04:11I need to go home.
04:12Unless you're arresting my client, we're leaving.
04:13Come on.
04:14Let's go.
04:15Get up.
04:16Here we go.
04:17Right this way.
04:18Get up.
04:19Get up.
04:20Get up.
04:21Get up.
04:22Get up.
04:23Get up.
04:24Get up.
04:25Get up.
04:26Get up.
04:27Get up.
04:28Right this way.
04:36We need that warrant.
04:42Confirmation from ESR.
04:43The blood from the mill is Ronan's.
04:45There's also animal blood and another human profile, but it doesn't match Sinead's and it's not in the database.
04:50Well, Colin's blood's not in the profile.
04:52Any update on his history in Mantafinity?
04:54Colin rented a batch.
04:57A what?
04:58A small house on the outskirts of town in late 2006.
05:02He lived alone for quite a number of months.
05:05He said he was working at the mill.
05:07What does a mill need with a tech scientist?
05:09He was researching fungal spores and resin acid exposure.
05:13He wrote a paper.
05:14Published later that year.
05:15When exactly did he get here?
05:1715th of November.
05:19Three weeks before the first murder.
05:21Yeah, until he returned to his post as a lecturer at Auckland Uni in late February 2007.
05:28So Colin was definitely in Mantafinity for both murders.
05:30Mm-hmm.
05:32If Ronan's blood was in that room at the mill and the goat was dismembered there, the killer had to have been coming and going.
05:37Bruce, I want a team knocking on doors to see if anyone saw anything in the vicinity of the mill.
05:42And until we get that warrant, I want 24-hour surveillance on Friend's house.
05:46He doesn't do anything, he doesn't go anywhere without us knowing and following, okay?
05:50Copy that.
05:51Great, thank you. Good work, team. Thanks, everyone.
05:54Who were the victims?
05:56How did they come to be in Mantafinity that fateful summer?
05:59What drew the Goatman to them?
06:02And other than their grisly murders, is there another link that binds Emma and Gabriel?
06:08I'm Ava Scott, and this is episode two of The Mountain Murders.
06:12Let me know if Ava solves this one, will you?
06:15Hey.
06:18You know the way serial killers typically don't just stop?
06:23If that's what we're dealing with here, where do you think they've been all this time?
06:29Rare cases, they go dormant for years, sometimes even decades.
06:35Why, have you got a theory?
06:37Maybe.
06:39You?
06:41Drink?
06:46I promise I won't ask a single question.
06:49Oh, yeah?
06:53Go on, then.
07:11Ah.
07:19Ooh.
07:21Alright.
07:24So, how are you?
07:26Yeah, I'm good. You?
07:29I meant since there he…
07:32I'm not pressing charges.
07:37Come on, talk to me.
07:41Come on.
07:45I knew he wasn't going to do it.
07:48But I suppose him, or someone like him, might.
07:53Do you ever get sick of it all?
07:56All the ugliness and all the shit coming at you, non-stop, from all sides?
08:03Do you ever just want to stop?
08:07And give up all of this?
08:10Richard, I know the risks.
08:13You've seen the locks on my doors, but what else would I do?
08:17I don't know who the fuck I am without this job.
08:20You can do whatever you want.
08:25Oh, yeah?
08:26Yeah.
08:27Yeah.
08:28Of course you can, you rainy fucking night.
08:30Yeah.
08:40Good night, Amy.
08:44Good night, Richard.
09:01Let's start right back at the beginning.
09:05To what we knew then, and what we know now.
09:19Where'd you go?
09:21Nowhere important.
09:31What are you hiding from me?
09:35Nothing, my love.
09:38Not one thing.
09:41Colin, I'm dying.
09:44I'm not a child.
10:00I know your heart is broken.
10:31Our boy leaves us today.
10:36And I'll leave too.
10:39If that's your will.
11:19Harriet's doing well, considering.
11:21Stomach's just settling in a day or so.
11:26As if you need more on your plate.
11:29You've heard the talk, I'm sure.
11:33Do you think I'm capable of what they're saying, Ray?
11:39I think anyone is capable of anything.
11:44But when I look at you,
11:47I see a good man.
11:53Jesus.
11:54Jesus.
11:56Hey, Tominy.
11:57Hey, Doc.
12:01Hey, Colin.
12:03Oh, come on, mate.
12:11Listen, I...
12:13I don't understand any of this.
12:16You know what they're saying.
12:19You hurt Sinead.
12:21Colin.
12:23It's bullshit.
12:25I know it is.
12:30Come on.
12:34Look, just tell me
12:37that you didn't do anything wrong.
12:44Ladies' man.
12:45You're the best man I know, Colin.
13:15I love you.
13:46Hey.
13:56Hi, my love.
14:01Scrambled eggs.
14:04I'm gonna try to eat it, okay?
14:16Where are you going?
14:18Well, those chickens in New York don't feed themselves, so...
14:35I love you.
14:40I love you too.
14:45I love you too.
15:15I love you too.
15:33Sinead.
15:35Sinead.
15:37Sinead.
15:45Sinead.
15:50Sinead.
15:53Sinead.
15:58Sinead.
15:59Sinead.
16:00Sinead.
16:06Val.
16:07Val, come in.
16:09Is that him?
16:10Yeah, we're near the end of the valley.
16:11We need to stay on you, boss.
16:13Copy.
16:15This way, team.
16:29We almost missed it.
16:32Yeah.
16:42Yeah.
17:06Colin?
17:13Colin?
17:27Frank.
17:30Shelly Duncan.
17:31Frank's solicitor.
17:35What are you doing here?
17:38Shelly?
17:40Just checking in.
17:43Losing a son?
17:45It's not easy.
17:50Fifteen minutes.
17:52Colin?
17:59You said something the day of the funeral.
18:02First off, who are you?
18:06I'm a journalist.
18:09A journalist?
18:22Colin?
18:24Colin!
18:27And what are you doing here with me, Missy journalist?
18:33You tell me.
18:39Colin?
18:43Colin?
18:48The goat man.
18:50You heard those words.
18:52You closed your eyes and off you went.
18:57Where did you go?
18:59Colin.
19:02Call me.
19:04I think you do know something.
19:05The public is safe from you.
19:08But who's out there?
19:35Colin.
19:54They found the goat?
19:57Not yet.
19:58They have a suspect?
19:59They do.
20:02But they're not giving anything away.
20:05No.
20:13You said,
20:16it's not what it looks like.
20:18Never was.
20:20What did you mean?
20:21What did you mean?
20:34Diana, who are you?
20:37She's the main pig on this case, right?
20:52What does she know that you don't?
21:10What's she not telling you?
21:14Little Diana.
21:18Did they ever find her, Mama?
21:22Hey, pastors.
21:24Colin's up.
21:33One of my teams found this place this morning.
21:49Signs of a struggle.
21:52Sinéad's shoe.
22:00She didn't break out. This was unlocked.
22:04So he came and got her?
22:06When?
22:13Dears, who are you?
22:17How long ago?
22:22Two hours.
22:24Our guys outside Colin Friend's house, they lost him.
22:28What's our timeline?
22:29Last time they saw him, four hours ago.
22:32Last time to get up here.
22:35Bruce knows the river best.
22:38I'll get some dive teams under his command to search for likely dump spots.
22:42Can you go with him? We need to act fast before there's any chance of flooding.
22:46To clarify, the ground search is abandoned?
22:52Keep some teams on the ground.
22:54They're out there, so we're not giving up, but...
22:57we need to redirect some of our resources to recovery in the water.
23:22Come on.
23:37A young woman's life is at stake, Mrs. Friends.
23:40Do you have any idea where your husband might have taken her?
23:47I'm sorry, I really am.
23:49But the best way you can help your husband right now is by telling us everything.
23:55I don't know.
24:00I just don't know.
24:04We have no idea how he's moving, by foot or vehicle, or in what direction.
24:09I want checkpoints on every road going out of Mount Infinity.
24:12Check every car, every truck, their back seats, their boots.
24:15Yes, I know it's a big job, but it's someone's life.
24:19The police have specified a person of interest.
24:22Colin Friends, 54 years old, most recently employed at the local tech company Hokuda.
24:27Do you know Colin Friends?
24:29I don't know Colin Friends well.
24:31I do know that he is a brilliant scientist, committed to the Hokuda philosophy.
24:36But apart from that, I have no knowledge of why the police would want to speak with him.
24:41Thank you everybody.
25:19Gwenda?
25:21Anything on the priority one alert?
25:23Nothing yet.
25:24Ruth?
25:25Sorry mate.
25:27Do you see her?
25:30Okay, where?
25:34Oh, fuck.
25:38Yeah, yeah, we'll be there in two minutes.
25:41Okay.
26:11We'll be there in two minutes.
26:41News is not good, I'm afraid.

28:10What's going on?
28:11What do you mean?
28:12What do I mean?
28:13Seriously.
28:15The main suspect in Roland's death is a potential f-ing serial killer.
28:19He committed suicide today and what were you doing?
28:21Obsessing about something?
28:24arpastors know something.
28:25I was playing with you.
28:27There's no story here.
28:29Let it go.
28:30I'm not asking you.
28:31I'm not asking you.
28:40I know the stats.
28:43Every hour she's gone, the chances plummet.
28:49But in my bones,
28:52I really felt like we were gonna get her back.
28:56Stupid.
28:58It's not stupid, Bruce.
29:05What do you think?
29:08Is there a chance?
29:14None of the other crimes were abduction for abduction's sake.
29:17He took them to kill them.
29:18None of the other crimes were abduction for abduction's sake.
29:20He took them to kill them.
29:26He's gone, she's gone.
29:31Looking for her.
29:34On the riverbed.
29:46I'm going home.
29:48I'm going home.
30:04You're not going to sleep tonight?
30:08Me neither.
30:14I need a drink.
30:18Drink just makes it worse.
30:25This is a police station, Rector.
30:28Yeah, but out there it's just a car park.
30:49Well, with the mountain murderer dead,
30:56they'll give a bit of resources to fighting the last victim, but
31:01there'll be a limit.
31:07Her body could be anywhere, Rector.
31:11That's what they said to me.
31:15About Mum.
31:19We might never find Sinead.
31:24I don't know what happened to her.
31:35Either way, you'll be wanting to get back.
31:39Can't be who I was there.
31:42Not now.
31:44So what's your plan?
31:45Give up?
31:49Fuck you.
31:53How is it that Irish can always make fuck sound so...
31:58Bitter.
32:00I was going to say charming.
32:04I don't know.
32:06Must be a gift.
32:11What about your friend Aileen?
32:12And don't say you don't like her, it's lame.
32:15Are you just going to walk away?
32:21Don't do that.
32:23Because that, my Irish friend,
32:26is a special kind of hell.
32:34What about you, what's next?
32:36Tight blue sins.
32:41Back to the city, my real life.
32:44You sure this isn't your real life?
32:50So Mr. Flash, international detective,
32:53thinks he knows all about me now, does he?
32:55Maybe I do.
32:57Or maybe you don't, gobshit.
33:00I don't know.
33:01Or maybe you don't, gobshit.
33:05It's gobshite.
33:07Gobshite.
33:10You're a gobshit, you gobshite.
33:31Gobshite.
33:41Good work, detective.
33:53I'm quite stunned.
34:02Hannah!
34:08Hannah!
34:10Hannah!
34:12Oh, shit!
34:14Oh, shit!
34:16Hannah.
34:18Hannah?
34:20Hannah!
34:22Hannah!
34:25Hannah!
34:32You're back.
34:36I got you, it's okay, I'm here.
34:38Oh, God.
34:40One car, solo occupant, ambulance assistant.
34:43Oh, God, I don't want to be alone.
34:45Beachwood, Main Street, about halfway up.
34:47Opposite the police station.
34:49Where is she, Richter?
34:51Yeah, yeah, I'll stand there.
34:54I got you.
34:57I don't want to be alone.
34:58I don't want to be alone.
35:00It's okay, I got you, I'm here.
35:02I'm here.
35:08Yeah, I'm still here.
35:29Sydney?
35:33Sydney?
35:38Sydney?
35:51Oh, God.
35:54Oh, God.
35:58Oh, God.
36:11This isn't the first time she made a big entrance.
36:16I was abroad when she was born.
36:19Hannah went into labour early and I couldn't get a flight.
36:23So I stayed in the hotel room and smoked.
36:26About five packs of cigarettes.
36:28Oh, God.
36:33That's how long the delivery took.
36:35Five packs of cigarettes.
36:38I haven't smoked since then.
36:41Mr. Martin.
36:43Your wife and daughter are a little hard to keep apart right now.
36:46Understandably so.
36:48How's Sinead?
36:50Dehydrated, bruised, traumatized.
36:53Physically, she'll be fine.
36:55Right now, she just wants to see her dad.
36:56Thank you, doctor.
36:59When can we talk to her?
37:01She needs to rest.
37:03Tomorrow?
37:26Tomorrow.
37:45I went out to hide my work.
37:51To hide my shame.
37:57For my wrongdoings.
38:02I thought I was protecting Wiki.
38:06Protecting myself.
38:19A cup of tea for you.
38:27Okay.
38:47Sinead's alive.
38:49And safe.
38:51No way.
38:54How?
38:56I don't know.
38:58It's a bloody miracle.
39:00We get to talk to her tomorrow.
39:03Oh, that's amazing.
39:06That's fucking amazing.
39:09What happened?
39:11Did she escape?
39:12I don't know. We don't know anything yet.
39:14We get to talk to her tomorrow.
39:15Jesus.
39:17If I believed in miracles, what?
39:21Yeah, best news ever.
39:27Well, goodnight.
39:31Aileen.
39:35Yeah?
39:38I'm sorry.
39:56I'm sorry.
39:57I'm sorry.
40:25I really didn't want to come out here.
40:28I thought the story was a goose chase.
40:31David dug his heels in, of course.
40:36I'm glad he did.
40:39Oh.
40:41What was that?
40:44I missed this.
40:47Yeah, me too.
40:58Can I ask you something?
41:01Yeah.
41:07Why are you leaving your job?
41:17I should go.
41:22I'm sorry.
41:24I'm sorry.
41:27I'm sorry.
41:53Hey.
41:55Enough.
41:57Now, okay, you're not leaving until you just tell me what the...
42:00What the fuck is wrong?
42:05What is this?
42:12I have the gene for Huntington's.
42:16Do you know what that is?
42:19Yeah, I know what it is.
42:20Okay.
42:22That's it.
42:25I...
42:28Oh.
42:29Don't, please, don't.
42:30Okay.
42:36I'm sorry.
42:41I don't want this to...
42:43touch you, you know?
42:47When I can't walk or...
42:50talk or I can't look after myself,
42:52and I'm just, I'm so fucking angry all the time.
42:54I'm just...
42:56I'm so fucking angry.
42:58Peter, whatever happens, I don't care.
42:59I do, I do!
43:01Okay.
43:03I care.
43:09I don't want you anywhere near this.
43:11Don't go.
43:14Theo, don't go.
43:15I have to.
43:16I have to.
43:22I'm sorry.
43:42I was calling, but...
43:44you weren't in your room.
43:48Sinead's awake.
43:50She's ready to talk.
44:07Mum says you flew around the world to save me.
44:10Well, lucky for us you saved yourself.
44:12I can't tell you how much I hoped for this moment.
44:16Was it you who found him?
44:19Search and rescue.
44:21I'm so sorry for your loss.
44:24I knew he was dead when I saw him on the deck.
44:29What happened, Sinead?
44:32Can you tell us what happened from the start?
44:38I went to the garage...
44:39to put petrol in the car and to pick up a bottle of wine.
44:43Ronan was cooking when I left.
44:46Then...
44:58Ronan?
44:59Ronan?
45:00Jesus Christ.
45:01No, no, no, no.
45:02No, no.
45:04Ronan.
45:05Ronan.
45:06Ronan.
45:09Ronan.
45:21I felt something...
45:23and then nothing.
45:26I woke up in the boot of a car.
45:27Help!
45:29Help me!
45:39Ronan.
45:46Next thing I remember was the hut.
46:09No.
46:12No.
46:15Let me out.
46:20Let me out!
46:22Let me out!
46:24Let me out!
46:27Let me out!
46:31How did you get out?
46:34Last time he came, I grabbed at his arms.
46:36And then he put this cloth over my face.
46:40I lost consciousness.
46:54When I woke up...
46:57the cable ties were cut and the door was open.
47:07So I just ran.
47:13Ran until I found the road.
47:20Mum says he found who did it.
47:23Says he killed himself.
47:26Who was he?
47:29Who was your boss?
47:31Call them friends.
47:33I don't know.
47:34Call them friends.
47:38Colin?
47:39Mm-hmm.
47:44That's impossible.
47:48It couldn't have been him.
47:51I saw him that night on the way home from the garage.
47:57Jesus.
47:58Oh, my God.
48:05Colin?
48:09Colin?
48:12Are you OK?
48:15You all right, Colin?
48:26OK, then.
48:28Jesus.
48:35Ah!
48:40He was locked.
48:42He could barely walk.
48:48Colin didn't do it.
49:05If it wasn't Colin...
49:28Well, there's my help!
