Being Human – S2E02: Mitchell is chatting with his doctor friend when she goes to declare a man dead. Mitchell recognises the man as Dan, the human lover of a vampire named Carl. Mitchell once lived with Carl and Dan in the 80’s, when Carl was trying to help him give up blood. Annie is enjoying chatting to Saul at the pub, but he begins to hear televisions speaking to him. Terry Wogan informs him that Saul and Annie would make a wonderful couple. George is confronted by Ivan, who asks him how he made Daisy feel again. Carl tells Mitchell that he lost control and killed Dan, and Mitchell agrees to help him avoid the police. Herrick is no longer around to cover up vampire-related deaths, and the coroner that used to be paid by the vampires to keep quiet is now refusing to help Mitchell. Saul tells Annie that he had a bad car accident and was dead for 6 minutes. He says that he saw a corridor, and Annie shared that she has also seen the corridor. Annie invites Saul out for the afternoon, much to the disappointment of Hugh, her boss. Annie and Saul go to Saul’s house, but he hears voices from the television again and tries to assault her. She teleports away. Mitchell is angry that she teleported in front of someone, but George tries to comfort her. Hugh comes round to see her and admits he has feelings for her. Mitchell hatches a plan to help Carl escape, and gets George to help him. Carl breaks into the flat he shared with Dan (now a crime scene) and pretends to have committed suicide. Mitchell and George head to the hospital, where they discover that Saul has been drink-driving and has been in an accident. Mitchell helps Carl escape from the morgue by hitting the fire alarm. George is confronted by Nina, who is angry that he’s helping Carl, a murderer. Annie is left alone with Saul, who dies. Saul’s ghost appears, as does a door. The radio tells Saul to drag Annie through the door and he will be allowed to live. The voices are angry that Annie did not go through her door when it appeared for her. Annie manages to stop Saul dragging her through, so Saul goes instead. Mitchell and George hand Carl over to Ivan, who has arranged for him to leave the country and begin life with a new identity. Nina leaves the house overnight because she doesn’t want to become like George and Mitchell. She tells Mitchell that people like them shouldn’t be out in the streets. The old religious man and his team are now listening into the house and discover Nina’s hatred for being a werewolf. The old man speaks to her at the station. Annie heads to work, but finds that she is now invisible to Hugh.
