CLEO and SHAWNA listen to the advert on Cleo鈥檚 laptop. The advert abruptly stops with a click.

CLEO

She mentioned the Doctor! Play it again!

听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听

SHAWNA

Who?

CLEO

(Sighs)

Never mind. Where鈥檇 you get that?

SHAWNA

I recovered it from corrupted files on Abbie鈥檚 laptop.听

CLEO

So weird. What do you think it is?

SHAWNA

Well there鈥檚 only one way to find out.

And you heard what she said. It鈥檚 for

lost people and you lost someone...

CLEO

(Uneasy)

Come on Shawna - I appreciate it,

but babe -

SHAWNA

Look at this, 鈥淔or when you lose those

whom everyone else has forgotten.鈥

CLEO

Shawna 鈥淲hom.鈥 Who says 鈥淲hom鈥?

That鈥檚 some Bridgerton nonsense.

SHAWNA

The point is - I think this is a real

lead. UNIT didn鈥檛 know anything; the

police weren鈥檛 interested; we鈥檝e lost Abby...what else can we do?

听听听听听听

CLEO

Babe, if I take any more time off work...

I told Jill I have shingles on my face.

How much time does that buy me?

SHAWNA

I dunno. Like a week?

CLEO

Fine. Though what am I gonna say to

this group? I think my brother got

kidnapped by government agents? They鈥檒l

have me on a psych ward before you can

say Alien Foetus in a Jar.

SHAWNA

I dunno, Joe Rogan got a Spotify deal.

Purposeful music fades into:

PHONECALL

FX 鈥 a phone ringing.

CLEO

(Affectionately)

Oh hey Nana Thompson!

NANA

Hello, Cleo?

CLEO

Oh Shawna鈥檚 just in the bath -

NANA

That girl never answers her ruddy phone.

CLEO

(Laughs) Do you want me to get her?

NANA

Leave her be. Tell her to call me. I

was going out of my mind. Tell me Cleo,

is my granddaughter OK? Running off to Glasgow like that.

CLEO

Oh she鈥檒l be fine.

NANA

What鈥檚 wrong, love? I can tell something鈥檚 off with her.

CLEO

She鈥檚 had a bit of a falling out with Abby...

NANA

Oh I wish she鈥檇 find a nice lesbian

and settle down.

CLEO

Yeah you and me both.

NANA

And what about you? Have you got a nice

man?

CLEO

Not quite Mrs Thompson, the only man 滨鈥檓 looking for right now is my brother. He鈥檚 gone missing.

NANA

All these people going missing. Awful business isn鈥檛 it? And how鈥檚 your mum

doing?

CLEO

I don鈥檛 really talk to my mum, Mrs

Thompson.

NANA

Whyever not?

CLEO

It鈥檚 complicated.听听听听

We hear water dripping as SHAWNA is in the bath. Reminiscing, she plays a voicemail from Abby.

VOICEMAIL

You have 1 saved message.

ABBY

So!! Hi!! It鈥檚 Abby. Abby McPhail.

We met earlier today? The alien girl? 听

Not like, a literal alien. Just, the

one that was talking to you about aliens?

Oh my god this is embarrassing. ANYWAY.

I was wondering if you maybe wanted to

get coffee some time? Call me back or

give me a knock; 滨鈥檓 in 5F.

SFX: Voicemail cuts off. Beep as Shawna hits a button.

VOICEMAIL

ABBY

Oh my god, Cleo. Thank god! Why aren鈥檛

you returning my calls?

CLEO

After what you did are you surprised?

ABBY

I know...I -

CLEO

No I don鈥檛 want to hear it, Abz. You don鈥檛 do things like this to people you love. People who love you.

ABBY

I just...

CLEO

You chose those UNIT psychos over us.

How could you?!

ABBY

Well if we鈥檙e gonna get to the bottom of this mystery, we need them, Cleo.

CLEO

You hurt me. You and Shawna are literally the only family I have. I don鈥檛 want an explanation or apology. I want changed behaviour or nothing. Because we can鈥檛 be friends 鈥 we can鈥檛 be family if this is what you鈥檙e choosing.

ABBY

(Sighs) Do you really mean that?

CLEO

What do you think?

She hangs up.

SFX: Rustle of crisp packets and sweets.

SHAWNA

You鈥檙e utting it fine...

CLEO

滨鈥檓 on British Cleo Time. Take it or

leave it babe.

SHAWNA

Are you alright? You been crying?

CLEO

No. Just life allergies. Come on, I don鈥檛 wanna miss the start.

The music stops. They log on to the Zoom call. We hear the mysterious music from the ad.

SHAWNA

Is this it..? We鈥檙e in a waiting room.

CLEO

Looks like it. Give us the chocolate.

听听听听听听听听听听听

SHAWNA

There鈥檚 20 people here.

CLEO

Yeah makes sense. There鈥檚 a lot of people going missing aren鈥檛 there.

SHAWNA

There she is: Requiem. She鈥檚 got her

camera off, shall I message her?

SFX: Cleo opening chocolate and taking a bite.

CLEO

It鈥檚 starting!

REQUIEM

Welcome new members. What are your names?

CLEO

Hi, 滨鈥檓 Cleo.

SHAWNA

Shawna.

REQUIEM

Everyone, say hello to our new members.

GROUP

(Terribly out of sync, varying signal qualities)

Hi Cleo! Hi Shawna!

REQUIEM

Excellent. Let us begin. As ever, I shall remain anonymous but understand, like you,

I have experienced loss. It is the price

we pay for the beauty of mortality.

CLEO

(Whisper)

Babe are we sure this isn鈥檛 a cult? It鈥檚 giving me very culty vibes.

SHAWNA

(Whisper)

She can still see us talking even if we鈥檙e on mute.

REQUIEM

You鈥檝e lost someone.

SHAWNA

There鈥檚 only 18 people now.

REQUIEM

Perhaps you have lost many people.听

CLEO

People bailing already. Good sign.

REQUIEM

And you have told yourself that it will be easier if you ignore the pain. If you press on as if it were no great injury. If you simply pretend the wound was never there until it feels as if it wasn鈥檛. I understand. But I can tell you from experience that that will not stop this pain. You will not escape your听grief. She - it will be a part of you, always. A scar that will ache 听听when it gets cold in the dark.

(Beat)

I am here to help you lance the wound. To remember those we鈥檝e lost. To never let them disappear.

She takes a significant pause.

REQUIEM

Which of you has the courage to speak first?

(Beat)

Peter.

We now hear a montage of the groups鈥 tales of woe. High pitched, melancholy yet creepy music plays throughout the montage.

PETER

Yeah so, my wife uh, well she鈥檚 gone missing. It鈥檚 been hard...

CHRISTINA

...Because 鈥 and it feels awful to admit this but, I feel like 滨鈥檓 forgetting her. She鈥檚 only been missing for a few weeks but I鈥檝e forgotten the sound of her voice, the way she smiled, even the colour of her eyes....

ELLIE

...Ellie here. I just wanted to say that I feel like 滨鈥檓 going a bit nuts actually. Like 滨鈥檓 seeing things鈥earing things. 滨鈥檓 even having nightmares. But I can鈥檛 remember what鈥檚 causing them. And when I tell people I think something absolutely terrible has happened they don鈥檛 believe me.

REQUIEM

I believe you.

RACHEL

滨鈥檓 Rachel. I know this sounds crazy, I do, but I just know deep down in my heart that I have a son. I can鈥檛 tell you his name, or what he looks like, but I just know 滨鈥檓 a 鈥

Rachel stops abruptly. We hear static.

CLEO

Wait what happened there? Did she get cut off? This Zoom man.

SHAWNA

Shhhh!

CLEO

But where鈥檇 she go though?

MOHAMMED

There are pictures in my house of people I don鈥檛 recognise. 滨鈥檓 in the pictures too - how can that be? It doesn鈥檛 make any sense!

REQUIEM

Let us pause. Thank you, Mohammed. There

are all number of reasons that the mind might take it upon itself to protect you from its darkest corners. Our mind can

build a powerful shield around the past, keep us from the memories that wish us harm. 听I think it is important to remember that. It鈥檚 a reflex of survival. It鈥檚 your brain鈥檚 way of keeping you alive.

There鈥檚 a murmur of agreement. Cleo mutes the video call.

听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听

CLEO

What do you make of this? (Pause) It鈥檚 ok, we鈥檙e on mute.

SHAWNA

听听听听听听听听听听听 听听听听听听听 I hope Abby鈥檚 alright. Wherever she is...

SCENE 6

INT. UNIT LAB. EVE

FX - hear a howl of the Redacted Distortion, only this a very definite scream in the mix.

听听听听

OSGOOD

Cut it off.

FX - a machine powers down.

听听听听

ABBY

What is that?! It鈥檚 awful!

听听听听

OSGOOD

We don鈥檛 know. Using Joel鈥檚 Dimensional Bridging Stabliser, we鈥檝e isolated and amplified the disturbance. That鈥檚 what you鈥檙e hearing now. Glimpses from a parallel reality.

听听听听

ABBY

Incredible. But it sounds like...

听听听听

OSGOOD

Screaming. Yes, I know.

听听听听

ABBY

Well then stop! You鈥檙e hurting it!

OSGOOD

We don鈥檛 know that. Metaphysically speaking, there鈥檚 nothing to hurt. All our monitors are very clear - there鈥檚 nothing there.

ABBY

But I can see...something. A shape. It looks like...a person.

SFX: Background noise of computers whirring and beeping.

OSGOOD

There鈥檚 a word for things you can see and hear but that aren鈥檛 really there.

ABBY

Ghosts.

OSGOOD

Whatever they are, we need to find what鈥檚 causing this and how it鈥檚 connected to thousands of missing people.

ABBY

Thousands?

OSGOOD

It鈥檚 an epidemic. A plague. And it鈥檚

getting worse. At this rate, London

itself will disappear. And every other

major city on the planet. Paris, Rio,

Hong Kong鈥

ABBY

So what do we do?

OSGOOD

We find out what鈥檚 doing this. Resume the tests.

ABBY

No, no, no. Please wait...

OSGOOD

This is UNIT, Abby. Sometimes, we鈥檙e forced to make the hard choices. The choices no

one else can make. The choices no one else should have to make.

FX - the machine starts up again. The distorted scream gets louder.

ABBY

Osgood?

OSGOOD

Keep going.

The scream increases and suddenly stops.

REQUIEM

Perhaps it is time for our newest members

to contribute. Shawna?

SHAWNA

No thanks, not really the sharing kind.

REQUIEM

I understand. But I would encourage

you to try.

SHAWNA

We鈥檙e just trying to work out why people

are going missing.

REQUIEM

Who are you searching for?

听听听听听听听听听听听

SHAWNA

Well, Cleo鈥檚 lost her brother

REQUIEM

And who have you lost?

SHAWNA

No-one.

REQUIEM

There鈥檚 loss in your eyes.

SHAWNA

Oh god, I don鈥檛 even - you all have

real problems. 滨鈥檓 just upset about a

girl.

CLEO

Babe, that鈥檚 a real problem.

REQUIEM

I feel that we are missing context.

SHAWNA

Right. Sorry. There鈥檚 this girl 鈥

woman, Abby.

Soft, heartwarming music plays as Shawna speaks fondly of Abby.

SHAWNA

She鈥檚 the smartest person I鈥檝e ever met. Like, real deal, superhero, gonna-win-a-Nobel- prize level smart. But she鈥檚 also a carer for her Mum, so instead of I don鈥檛 know, joining the UN, she makes a podcast with me. With us.

REQUIEM

And what is the nature of this podcast?

SHAWNA

(Embarassed)

Mostly we talk about aliens. And Russian bots. QAnon, ATMOS, Saxon Truthers, you know.

REQUIEM

I see.

SHAWNA

The point is. 滨鈥檓 seriously head over

heels, Kristen Stewart rom-com actually in love with her. And I don鈥檛 want to be.

REQUIEM

Why?

SHAWNA

Well, first, she鈥檚 got this absolute waste of space of a听boyfriend -

CLEO

(Interrupting)

Oh Shawna he鈥檚 fine come on.

(Shawna gives her a look).

Alright, I mean not as good as you obviously. Come on he鈥檚 fine.

SHAWNA

And more importantly, she just chose a bunch of space cops over her two best friends.

MOHAMMED

Space cops?

CLEO

Yes Mohammed, space cops. Keep up please.

SHAWNA

And 滨鈥檓 so angry with her. Because like, yes, I get it, she wants to go out and be a big damn hero. But just because they鈥檝e got shiny uniforms doesn鈥檛 mean they鈥檙e the good guys.听

REQUIEM

Are they the 鈥榖ad guys鈥 then?

SHAWNA

Yes! No. I don鈥檛 know. All I actually know is that they lied to us. And they hurt Cleo. And I asked her to choose me and she didn鈥檛.

And I really thought she would.

CLEO

Shawna, we鈥檒l get her back.

REQUIEM

And what about you Cleo 鈥 what鈥檚 your story?

CLEO

Nah, it鈥檚 alright, someone else go.

REQUIEM

Cleo. Isn鈥檛 there anything you鈥檇 like to share? Shawna mentioned your brother.

The same high pitched music from before starts again.

CLEO

Uh, no, no. I wanna hear about the people

in these pictures in Mohammed鈥檚 house.

REQUIEM

Sorry, who鈥檚 house?

听听听听听听听听听听听

CLEO

Mohammed鈥檚 鈥 you know the guy who was talking earlier.

SHAWNA

Babe, there is no Mohammed...

CLEO

Where鈥檚 he gone?

REQUIEM

No one has gone anywhere.

CLEO

Did he get cut off too? But his cameras still on though. Look, he鈥檚 right there! Kind of blurry...

听听

SHAWNA

Who are you talking about?

CLEO

Mohammed. Look, look where 滨鈥檓 pointing!

ELLIE

Are you ok?

SHAWNA

Cleo, there鈥檚 nothing there.

CLEO

Yes there is! Look at him!

All fuzzy and鈥 translucent.

SHAWNA

(UNSETTLED)

Cleo, this isn鈥檛 funny.

CLEO

滨鈥檓 not joking Shawna!

SHAWNA

Ok so 滨鈥檓 starting to think the late-night coffee was a bad idea.

CLEO

(Thinking aloud)

Why am I different to you? I remember and you don鈥檛.

SHAWNA

Remember who?! Cleo, seriously, you鈥檙e scaring me

CLEO

(Beat)

Alright. Look, I鈥檒l show you.

That box. Top right.

(Beat)

See, look? He鈥檚 gone.

SHAWNA

There wasn鈥檛 anyone there, Cleo.

CLEO

Shawna think about it. Why would someone

set up a Zoom to an empty room?

SFX: Cleo scribbling down a list.

REQUIEM

What are you doing?

听听听听听听听听听听听

CLEO

滨鈥檓 writing down everyone who鈥檚 still here. Ellie, Peter, Dave...

听听听听听听听听听听听

REQUIEM

But why? Do you want to talk about it?

CLEO

Well there鈥檚 no point is there? If they

disappear you鈥檙e going to forget

they existed. Just like everyone does,

all the time.

REQUIEM

You sound frustrated. Is this about your family?

CLEO

Give the girl a prize!

(Deep breath)

I don鈥檛 have a family.

REQUIEM

Did they disappear as well? Tell me.

CLEO

(sighs)

My brother has. My Mum didn鈥檛.

It鈥檇 be easier if she鈥檇 听been magicked away or taken by aliens. But with her it鈥檚 just good old fashioned rejection.

SHAWNA

And she鈥檚 an idiot.

CLEO

Thanks hun.

REQUIEM

What of your father?

CLEO

(choking up)

He鈥檚 dead.

(Long pause)

When I was a kid. There was some kind of...I don鈥檛 know. I don鈥檛 remember. Mum always said he just left. Packed up in the middle of the night without even saying goodbye,and left me alone with her. I never believed her. Now I don鈥檛 know if she was lying or if she didn鈥檛 even know.

Soft, sad music begins as Cleo tells her story.

CLEO

The point is he鈥檚 gone, and he鈥檚 never coming back. There鈥檚 no magic vanishing act, no aliens. Just me and my brother growing up with a single Mum in Peckham.

A single Mum who put up with me failing my GCSEs, but seriously couldn鈥檛 handle finding out she had a daughter.

REQUIEM

(Thoughtful pause)

I do not have children. It has always been my belief that such a choice, taken wisely, is the result of a kind of courage and compassion which I know I do not have. Raising a child requires a kind of limitless selflessness. An understanding that your world will only ever be a shadow of that of your progeny. That if you succeed, they will go on to find far greater

horizons than you had ever dreamt of. That they will, in a word, outgrow you. That your mother resists this is not, as I understand it, uncommon in your culture. But it is nonetheless a tragedy.

Still. Her narrow-mindedness will only ever be听a reflection of her failure. It does not tarnish the courage and wisdom that moved you to go where she could not.

CLEO

Thanks, I guess.

REQUIEM

Knowledge of the self is the deepest mystery of all. For that, Cleo Proctor, you have my respect.

CLEO

That鈥檚 me. Halfway up the hill to enlightenment. Alright! Time for someone else to bare their soul now.

REQUIEM

Someone else?

CLEO

Yeah.

(Beat)

Wait, where鈥檇 everyone go?

SHAWNA

What do you mean?

REQUIEM

We鈥檙e the only ones here Cleo.

CLEO

What?

SHAWNA

You know. In the group.

CLEO

There were 20 of us at the start.

SHAWNA

What are you on about? It鈥檚 literally just us.

CLEO

Look, I wrote all their names down.

(Beat)

That鈥檚 not possible.

High pitched music suddenly comes back again.

CLEO

(Beat)

Shawna, did you do this?

SHAWNA

Did I do what?

CLEO

It鈥檚 like someone鈥檚 ripped through the paper. I can鈥檛 even read the names on my list.

SHAWNA

Why did you have a list of names?

(Cleo angrily turns on Requiem, her tone dark.)

CLEO

Who the hell are you, Requiem? What鈥檚 your real name?

REQUIEM

滨鈥檓 sorry?

CLEO

No you will be. Turn your camera on now!

The music intensifies as Cleo demands answers.

REQUIEM

I cannot.

CLEO

Is it you? Are you the Doctor? Tell me now!

Faint Redaction effect in the background.

SHAWNA

Cleo, will you please stop! What are you talking about?

CLEO

It鈥檚 her! She鈥檚 doing it.

Redaction effect builds. Requiem鈥檚 voice is glitchy, hard to understand.

REQUIEM

Shawna, Cleo you鈥檙e in danger. You have to listen to me.

CLEO

Why? We don鈥檛 even know who you are.

Redacted Distortion begins.听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听

REQUIEM

It鈥檚 coming. It鈥檚 coming for you.

It鈥檚 coming for all of us.

SHAWNA

What is?

CLEO

Are you the Doctor?

REQUIEM

The Doctor can鈥檛 help you now.

Redacted Distortion builds.

CLEO & SHAWNA

SFX: Explosion sound and the laptop clatters to the ground, hot chocolate spills, mugs break.

Intense double bass plays a series of four notes in quick succession, emulating Cleo and Shawna鈥檚 fear and confusion.

CLEO

Oh my god! What the?!

SHAWNA

What the hell was that? She鈥檚 coming for us?

滨鈥檓 looking for Cleo Proctor.

Hopeful music lightly plays, as Cleo hears the Doctor鈥檚 voice. At the same time, the intense music builds.

CLEO

Hello?

THE DOCTOR

My name is The Doctor, time is running out...

CLEO

Doctor?

THE DOCTOR

The ghosts.

Whatever you do, don鈥檛 touch the ghosts.

The intense music suddenly stops.

END OF EPISODE

The low bassy surge of the Redacted Main Theme comes in, with its distinctive siren-like synths, rushing into a sudden glitch that dips into a slow, soft piano tune.
