00:00 Thank you for doing this.
00:02 I know adopting in America would have been easier, but...
00:05 I just want a baby.
00:07 I hate not knowing why.
00:09 Come on, let me make you breakfast. Come on.
00:12 And then I'll show you around the island.
00:14 Oh, why the 12 months?
00:16 We don't go giving her weeniparas to just anyone.
00:18 To my only son in the air, beautiful wife, and to my future grandson.
00:28 What can you tell us, Stephen?
00:30 Well, that she didn't die of natural causes.
00:32 She's a bog body, buried in peat. Chemically preserved.
00:34 What are those markings?
00:36 Runes carved into the flesh.
00:38 I see them all over the island.
00:40 It's its own Viking script.
00:41 What are you doing?
00:42 Dr. Hamilton, you shouldn't be in here.
00:44 You do realize this woman gave birth shortly before she was murdered?
00:47 These islands were rife with this sort of thing way back when.
00:50 Druids, the Norsemen.
00:52 What if she was murdered less than three years ago?
00:54 There is something weird going on on this island.
00:57 Take a look at this.
00:58 The mothers were sacrificed by having their hearts cut out.
01:01 The Trow's were a real religious sect.
01:03 Real?
01:04 Yeah, what if they still are?
01:06 If you're not a policewoman, then we don't have to answer anything.
01:09 Can you read these?
01:10 Hey.
01:11 Jane, leave the good doctor alone, will you?
01:13 What the two of you have engaged in is unethical and possibly illegal.
01:19 How do you know?
01:20 It's a small island.
01:22 Sacrificial, satanic, ritualistic.
01:24 They're all words I don't want to hear.
01:26 He's following me.
01:27 Some of these oaths are treacherous.
01:31 The grip of the kind of power you're talking about.
01:34 They just couldn't hide.
01:36 If you're not one of us,
01:39 you can die like one of them.
01:42 Now why on earth would you be asking about these old stories?
01:49 Oh, just curiosity.
01:51 What happened to the cat?
