00:00You
00:30No.
00:33No, no, no, no, this isn't...
00:36This isn't real. What?
00:38There's a lot you need to know.
00:41I was there when your coffin went into the fire.
00:44But I...
00:45Wasn't...
00:46There.
00:47This isn't real.
00:49This can't be real.
00:50This isn't...
00:52I'm sorry.
00:54You're sorry?
00:56What does that even mean?
00:59You are a...
01:00memory.
01:01A ghost.
01:04That fireplace.
01:05I still picture it when I replay the moments you put a hit out on me.
01:10Oh my god.
01:11But that's not how it happened.
01:13How it played out.
01:15Doesn't really matter.
01:18You pay to have him killed?
01:21He was gonna clean me out.
01:24Then leave...
01:25Leave the country with his new girlfriend Rona and her son.
01:29You think I was gonna let that happen?
01:31I can't do this.
01:32This is...
01:34I think I'm gonna...
01:35Can we...
01:36Can we sit...
01:38Can we sit...
01:39Can we sit...
01:41Joe?
01:42What?
01:43Cough.
01:44Cough.
01:45Okay.
01:50Cough.
01:51Cough.
01:52Cough.
01:54Cough.
01:55Cough.
01:56Cough.
01:59Cough.
02:00I don't know.
02:01I don't know.
02:02I don't know.
02:04I don't know.
02:05Yeah.
02:10I can't begin to know what's going on in your life right now.
02:14You must have a look.
02:15I don't know.
02:16I have a lot of questions.
02:17How?
02:20How are you here?
02:23How are you alive?
02:25How are you alive?
02:27It's a long comfort.
02:30It's a complicated story.
02:34So start talking.
02:35Tell me.
02:39I wanna know how.
02:40The one person in my life who really mattered to me.
02:46Played dead.
02:49And stayed dead.
02:50I wanted to tell you badly.
02:52But you didn't.
02:53There was a target on my head.
02:55You wanna know how I found out?
02:59You wanna know how I found out?
03:01Hm.
03:03I was in a bar.
03:04And I...
03:05Got my phone out.
03:07To take a photo.
03:08And it just popped up on my phone.
03:11You're dead.
03:14And my entire world...
03:15The world stopped.
03:16Everything stopped.
03:18I couldn't hear.
03:19I couldn't...
03:20See anything.
03:21I just got up.
03:22And I started running.
03:23Just...
03:24I don't know where...
03:25I'm running.
03:26But I know that if I stop...
03:28It all becomes real.
03:31And then that night in my hotel room...
03:33I am just...
03:34Shaking.
03:36Sobbing.
03:37And just shaking.
03:38And I've just never...
03:41Been more alone...
03:42Than in that moment.
03:45Sobbing.
03:47Sobbing.
03:48Sobbing.
03:49Sobbing.
03:50Sobbing.
03:50Sobbing.
03:51I...
03:52Sobbing.
03:53Sobbing.
03:54Sobbing.
03:55I miss the hammer.
03:55If I could go back.
03:55No, no, no, no, whatever reason you have, whatever excuse you might-
04:00It means nothing!
04:04I grieved you-
04:05Graham!
04:06I'm still grieving you!
04:11I will always be sorry.
04:13Who are you?
04:14The Guild.
04:15Oh, yeah.
04:15The Guild.
04:16Oh, wow.
04:17I'm sure it weighed really heavy on you.
04:19I'm sure you found a way to do-
04:20You know, you were the closest thing I've ever had.
04:24To a f-
04:25Father.
04:26Grief.
04:27It is like a hand.
04:30That grabs you by the neck.
04:32And it never lets go.
04:35It doesn't matter.
04:36Don't do it.
04:37Thank you very much, do you want to see?
04:39Yeah, you can't see a little mark, just top of it, but I won't have enough.
04:40You can't see a little mark.
04:41In fact, I'll help you.
04:42You can't see a little mark.
04:43It's OK.
04:44I don't want to have anything.
04:45Oh, yeah.
04:46You can't see one mark.
04:49Now see, it's okay.
04:50I'll check it out.
04:51I'll check it out.
04:52It looks like a little mark.
04:53It just sees a little mark.
04:54I see a little mark.
04:55It's okay.
04:56I see a little mark.
04:57It looks like a little mark.
04:58I'll make a little mark.
04:59It's okay.
05:00Yeah.
05:01So when I'm on.
05:02My eye.
05:03in this life, I thought I could trust.
05:07And you?
05:09Just like every other crime scene, your DNA is all over this.
05:12Whatever he...
05:13He's told you.
05:13You paid to have him killed.
05:15None of this would have happened if it...
05:18One for you.
05:20You blew everything up.
05:23Karma...
05:26Always taps your...
05:28You're on the shoulder.
05:29Is it not slapping you in the face?
05:33I'm not sure this is going quite how you...
05:38You envisaged.
05:40Hmm.
05:42When you open...
05:43You've got to expect some blood...
05:46You've got to expect some blood...
05:48You'll have to ask...
05:49There we go.
05:50There we live in all the time.
05:51You have to get them.
05:52I'm lacking...
05:54Come on...
05:56Whether you're alone...
05:57Or should I be in love when you're alone?
05:58It's true that it's not powinien.
05:59Neither will have the right when you watch this.
06:00Just for a moment...
06:01If you hadn't prepared...
06:02Hello?
06:03I had toяни you...
06:04Go on to my nose.
06:05Never condbalanced by a way.
06:06When you come from the left...
06:07Then there're no reason...
06:08Oh God...
06:09What...
06:10If I didn't get him...
06:11We're scattered then?
06:12It's Marin.
06:13It's my crew...
06:14Oh God...
06:15To theiende Village...
06:16AoCome On with media analysis.
06:03It wasn't a single day I didn't think about.
06:08Ever since I was 13.
06:12Whenever I needed help, I counted on you.
06:17You were always there.
06:20This time you couldn't help me.
06:22Because you had abandoned me.
06:24I know I made mistakes.
06:27I'm still macking them.
06:31Ever since you've died?
06:32I'd gone down some very dark paths.
06:38I had disappeared down a hole that I was pretty sure I was never going to...
06:42get out of.
06:44And now...
06:46I feel like my heart is just breaking all over again.
06:51Because you waiting till now to come back proves one thing.
06:56I didn't matter.
06:59You matter more than you know.
07:00Did you know?
07:01I knew where I was.
07:03What I knew.
07:04Did you know?
07:05I knew where I was.
07:07Yes or no?
07:09Yes.
07:09I knew where I was.
07:10Yes.
07:11Go, go.
07:12So you knew.
07:17You could've...
07:22found a way to tell me that you were alive.
07:25I came close.
07:27In more ways than you can imagine.
07:29It wasn't only me who was a target.
07:32Rona and Leo, I couldn't risk anything happening to them.
07:36So they came first.
07:37Oh, grow up!
07:38Are you not listening, Graham?
07:40Whatever you didn't know didn't hurt you.
07:42You had your whole life in front of you.
07:44You.
07:45My whole life.
07:46MY WHOLE LI-
07:47GRAHAM!
07:48Have you got any idea how close that life-
07:52It came to ending!
07:53The-
07:57The lights had gone out on me!
07:59I wasn't eating!
08:01I wasn't sleeping!
08:02I was just shoving things down my throat to numb the pain!
08:05Pills!
08:06Opio-
08:07Pills!
08:08When you do that enough, it has consequences!
08:12Your organs start to fail!
08:14And the next thing you know you're on an operating theatre-
08:17trying to replace the kidney that you've done your very best to destroy!
08:22You're really feeling the same...
08:23What?
08:24That's what I'm saying as a man.
08:25And I deserve to take a picture of this one!
08:27Just want to try, but I'm not a friend!
08:28And I didn't need to go home.
08:29I'm gonna get the power of this one.
08:30What's happened to you, Heather?
08:31That's okay.
08:32I'm sorry.
08:33He didn't have to go home.
08:34I'm sorry.
08:35I don't want to wake you up.
08:36I'm sorry.
08:37I'm sorry.
08:38I'm sorry.
08:39I'm sorry.
08:40I'm sorry.
08:41I'm sorry.
08:42I'm sorry.
08:43I'm sorry.
08:44I'm sorry.
08:45I'm sorry.
08:46I'm sorry.
08:47I'm sorry.
08:48I'm not even sorry.
08:49I'm sorry.
08:50I wanted to tell you at home.
08:55At the beginning.
09:00I was lost.
09:05That wasn't me.
09:09I hit the bottom.
09:10It's a little hard.
09:14By the time...
09:15I had managed to get myself straight.
09:18You were in the grieving process.
09:20No.
09:21It was too late.
09:22It was never too late.
09:23I don't have any right.
09:25To just walk back in your life uninvited.
09:27I know that.
09:28Do you?
09:29But whatever you need from me...
09:30Nothing.
09:31I don't need anything from you.
09:35The world that you walked out on...
09:38Is different now.
09:40Everything's changed.
09:45I don't know.
09:46I don't know.
09:47I don't know.
09:48I don't know.
09:49I don't know.
09:50I don't know.
09:51I don't know.
09:52I don't know.
09:53I don't know.
09:54I don't know.
09:55I don't know.
09:56I don't know.
09:57I don't know.
09:58I don't know.
09:59I don't know.
10:00I don't know.
10:01I don't know.
10:02I don't know.
10:03I don't know.
10:04I don't know.
10:05I don't know.
10:06I don't know.
10:07I don't know.
10:08I don't know.
10:09I don't know.
10:10I don't know.
10:11I don't know.
10:12I don't know.
10:13I don't know.
10:14But when I saw you in the hospital, I knew I couldn't just walk away.
10:19Why were you at that hospital?
10:23It's...
10:25Still a lot of catching up we need to do.
10:28No.
10:29No.
10:32Ah.
10:34I don't need to do anything.
10:39No.
10:41To be continued...
10:54Drink?
10:56Really?
10:58Did you...
10:59A little habit not die with you?
11:02Your sense of humour...
11:04Clearly did.
11:04When you've been on your own for as long as I was, and I mean literally on your own...
11:09You, um, find ways of dealing with that.
11:13Oh...
11:14Was Graham lonely?
11:16My heart bleeds.
11:18You'd have to...
11:19I don't remember much after I...
11:24I don't remember much after I...
11:24I just disappeared.
11:25I drank enough to silence the voices in my...
11:29Finding out what happened to Marlon only made things worse.
11:33He must have gone...
11:34Gone through hell.
11:35But what he does have...
11:37Is a wife who loves him.
11:39They're strong.
11:40I can't imagine anyone wanting to upset such a...
11:44Happy home.
11:46Well, that won't be me.
11:47It's pretty clear how much...
11:49Her family means to them.
11:50So your paths have already crossed?
11:52Oh...
11:54Of course they have.
11:57You obviously know about the...
11:59Problems they've faced recently.
12:00Well, I make problems go away.
12:04So...
12:05That's what really brought you back.
12:07Rona.
12:09And April.
12:11I thought you came back for me.
12:14Bye.
12:14Bye.
12:14Bye.
12:29I never lied to you.
12:30So all of that when I saw you in hospital?
12:33It's true.
12:34Once I'd helped work out things for...
12:39around April, I was going to take off.
12:44It all changed when I saw you again.
12:46He's making it up as he goes along.
12:49But I'm here now.
12:51Six years too late.
12:54Don't follow me.
12:59You must have worked out this was a mistake.
13:04You coming back here.
13:06You think I thought I'd be welcomed with open...
13:09Oh, I don't really know what you were thinking.
13:13What do you...
13:14What do you want?
13:15Forgiveness?
13:16From you?
13:17The woman who put a rope...
13:19around my neck.
13:20And what's stopping me from doing that now?
13:24Easy to kill a man who the world thinks is already dead.
13:27A victimless crime?
13:29So to speak.
13:31But then you would have to grieve me.
13:33All over again.
13:35Is that so?
13:37And you're forgetting some...
13:38I'm the only one who can see through the act through you.
13:43All of it was just a little girl who wasn't loved enough.
13:48You grew up to be a woman who could never be loved enough.
13:53By anyone.
13:57You have had a lot of...
13:58thinking time, haven't you?
14:01Did you put yourself under the same microscope?
14:03No, because I knew I wouldn't like what I saw.
14:06We both wear the masks we have.
14:08Not in front of each other.
14:12That's when the masks...
14:13masks come off.
14:18Now tell me it meant nothing.
14:23When you found out I'd been killed.
14:28It meant less than nothing.
14:32And now say it again.
14:33Like you mean it.
14:35This was a mistake.
14:37So you keep saying.
14:38I don't know what else you want to hear.
14:41I could go into that kitchen, right?
14:43Now get myself a knife.
14:47Come back.
14:48And hand it to you.
14:51What's your next move?
14:53Right now?
14:56I'd happily kill you all over again.
14:58Good stuff.
14:59It's .
15:01Well done.
15:04Yeah, good stuff.
15:05Let's go.
15:06Yeah, You're going to see.
15:07Let's just finish your second-.*
15:09Start a poco while holding on.
15:13He says something.
15:16It's really having a tough work.
15:18like with your real son.
15:23How is Jamie?
15:28Is he dead to you as well?
15:31I won't let you ruin Joe today.
15:33I was there for him when he needed someone.
15:38Where were you?
15:39I'm serious.
15:41I won't allow you to turn him into a...
15:43A version of you.
15:44A version of me?
15:47Who sees?
15:48People as pawn pieces on a chessboard.
15:51I am the only thing he...
15:53He has.
15:54Resembling family.
15:55You...
15:56Are a disease.
15:58Whatever he died, love.
16:02I'm pretty sure you must...
16:03You must have infected him first.
16:05You...
16:07If you're going...
16:08If you're going to show your teeth, make sure you can bite.
16:12Let go!
16:13Let go of me!
16:16You know I don't scare Issa.
16:18I'm trying to die.
16:23What's for you?
16:23If I wanted to scare you, I would have come...
16:28You are in the dead of the night.
16:31So what do you want?
16:33I'm going to die for a moment.
16:35I'm going to die for a moment.
16:38Natural causes.
16:40I'm sorry.
16:43It's tragic death.
16:45Natural causes.
16:46Nothing untoward.
16:48Will died of a heart attack.
16:53I mean.
16:59Once is sad enough.
17:01But to become a widow.
17:03Three times.
17:03That's either unlucky or careless.
17:06But I was happy.
17:09Unlike our marriage of convenience.
17:12But unfortunately.
17:13Fortunately for you.
17:14You're forgetting something.
17:17Technically.
17:18We're still man and wife.
17:23Which means your marriage of convenience could soon become very inconvenient.
17:28If you think you're entitled to anything.
17:31Anything that's mine.
17:32What's mine?
17:33Is yours.
17:33And what's yours is.
17:36Gone said.
17:38Over my dead body.
17:43So that's the real reason you came back.
17:47No.
17:48I want you to do something you're going to find very difficult.
17:52Try.
17:53And imagine a world where the most important thing isn't money.
17:58You think I don't know what you're doing.
18:00And what's that?
18:02Pressing my button.
18:03Nice.
18:08I think you'd still like me to press your button.
18:13I told you the reason why I came back.
18:18To protect Rona and April.
18:22And...
18:23The reason I'm going to stay is...
18:27Ciao.
18:28...
18:33For far too long, I've blamed you.
18:38I hated you, resented you, but the person I was most angry with...
18:43was me, always hiding away, staying invisible, too scared.
18:48I'm not scared to put my head anywhere it could be shot at.
18:52I will always be a...
18:53I'm not ashamed of that.
18:54There was a hundred bullet-shaped reasons why I should have stayed hidden.
18:58There was only one that brought me back.
19:00Ciao.
19:01I will do everything to show it.
19:03But I'm still the same man who was always in his corner, wrong or right.
19:08He's not a little boy anymore.
19:10He doesn't need a guardian angel.
19:12He doesn't need me.
19:13But maybe I need him.
19:15Yeah.
19:18But it's all just words, isn't it?
19:23I don't really have much else.
19:25Is that what you really want to hear?
19:28I think I've heard enough.
19:32He can say what...
19:33what he wants.
19:34But if you meant anything to him, he would have made contact years ago.
19:38All that pain you were feeling.
19:40He could have stopped it in a heartbeat.
19:43He didn't.
19:44You have every right to hate me.
19:48I'd pretty much hate myself for what I put you and other people through.
19:54But what we were, we can be that again.
19:56What were we?
19:57I heard you say it.
19:58to Rona yesterday.
19:59I was your father and brother.
20:03rolled into one.
20:04And they both abandoned you.
20:07You've...
20:08clearly grown into the family man I always knew could be.
20:12A man I'm proud of.

20:16And he became that man without you.
20:19No, I didn't.
20:20I am who I am.
20:22Because of you.
20:23We both know that.

21:07I called the police.
21:09You were gone.
21:11And you should have stayed gone.
21:14Oh dear.
21:16That bullet you were willing to take.
21:18Look who's holding the gun.
21:19Look who's holding the gun.
21:23One more.
21:24And you were closing the gun to the station.
21:25To be out.
21:26Do not comment.
21:27But what does that feel?
