Warning - this article is packed with spoilers about DS Lisa Armstrong and her team
THE Bay kicked off on ITV last week 20 and already viewers are hooked.
But what questions need answering in episode two? Here's what you need to know.
WARNING: Contains spoilers from episode one of The Bay.
What questions were left unanswered after episode one of The Bay?
- Where is Dylan's twin sister Holly and was she killed too? Or perhaps they are involved in a teen suicide pact?
- Will Sean tell the police that he was with Lisa that night?
- What do Lisa's children Abbie and Rob know about the missing teens? They have both been acting like they have a secret.
And here's what happened last week:
1) Lisa and Sean hook up
The episode kicks off with DS Lisa Armstrong getting all glammed up for a girls' night out with her friends.
After going for "one more drink" at a local pub, she ends up singing karaoke and catching the eye of Sean Meredith - a local fisherman.
The pair chat, and after some brief flirting they end up having sex in the alleyway.
2) The twins go missing
After arriving late to work and nursing a hangover, Lisa finds out she has been assigned to the case of the missing teenage twins Dylan and Holly, and she is given the task of being their parents' family liaison officer.
But she gets a shock when she goes to the family home - the twins father is Sean who she hooked up with the night before in the alleyway.
The pair act like they don't know each other.
We later find out Sean isn't the twins' real father.
3) Abbie gets suspended from school
Right from the beginning it seems like Lisa's teenage daughter Abbie might know something about the twins' disappearance.
She texts a schoolmate saying "Scary stuff" when a police officer gives a talk about the missing pair.
Later in the episode, Abbie is taunted by some girls at school and gets into a fight and is suspended.
While suspended she goes to visit an old derelict arcade, which seems to mean something to her.
Meanwhile, a short scene sees Lisa’s son Rob having a mysterious online chat with someone that seems to be baiting him.
4) Lisa wipes the CCTV footage
It comes to light that Sean can't account for his actions for one hour during the night the twins went missing.
We know that he was with Lisa for some of that time.
With this in mind, Lisa knows the fact they met must be on CCTV footage from the pub that they were in.
She volunteers to get the CCTV from the pubs that Sean said he was in.
When she spots herself on the footage talking to Sean, and leaving with him, she wipes the tape, destroying the evidence.
5) Dylan's body is discovered
Later, just as Lisa gets home from work, she receives a call and dashes to the beach, where Dylan’s body has been found.
She goes to tell his parents, and Sean rushes down to where the body lies.
Lisa's boss Tony thinks this is suspicious and tells Lisa to arrest him.
She takes Sean to one side and questions him about where he was - even though he was with her for some of the night.
This results in Sean being arrested for murder.
Even though he was with Lisa for part of the time when Dylan went missing, he can't account for an hour of the night.
