In the UK, Stephen Beaumont runs a hostel for failed asylum seekers and takes in Colombian - born Veronica. Tabloid journalist Danny Hillier enters his car to find it rigged with explosives. When the timer reaches zero, however, instead of an explosion, the killer has left a message. `` Episode 2 '' Dominik Moll Ben Richards 23 October 2013 ( 2013 - 10 - 23 ) 11 November 2013 N / A A killer 's video states that the killings were the first of five `` truths '', inequality before the law.
