00:13What is up with you?
00:19Hey, how's it going?
00:21Has anyone taught you how to say this vehicle yet?
00:24Very good, have your love.
00:27You still getting on with everyone?
00:28Ah yeah, they're a good bunch.
00:30How about you? How's business?
00:32Business, yeah, it's great.
00:34It's non-stop.
00:36I had to turn down a couple of runs earlier.
00:38You must be relieved.
00:39Yeah, best move I ever made, babe.
00:41That's wonderful news.
00:43I'm proud of you making a go of it.
00:45And do you know what I'm thinking?
00:47We can finally replace that Banjax tumble dryer.
00:51Yeah, why not?
00:52Right, well I'll see you at the weekend if you're not too busy.
00:55Yeah, I'll see you then.
00:57Bye.
01:03Hey.
01:03Hey.
01:06So, I was thinking I could get cover if you wanted to have a chill-out day.
01:10Why would I do that?
01:12You know why.
01:14Since when did you ever turn down the chance of a duvet day?
01:17I've had enough time off lately.
01:19Yeah, for a good reason.
01:20Will you talk to Lily again?
01:22Not happening.
01:23They'd worry.
01:24You can't just turn your back on her.
01:26Watch me.
01:27Look, I gave her a shot.
01:28I've met her.
01:29She gave me her sob story.
01:31Boo hoo.
01:32She knew I was in a home.
01:33And she left me there.
01:35She's still your ma.
01:36She never was.
01:38And it's too late now.
01:40It's time to cut my losses.
01:41No harm, no fault.
01:43If you don't make things right with her now, you're going to regret it later.
01:46I'll burn that bridge when I come to it.
01:49Lighten up, Sash.
01:50I'm not bothered.
01:52Don't know why you should be.
01:55I know you mean well, but Gwen is right.
01:58Lily is not worth getting upset over.
02:06Oh, hi.
02:12Hi.
02:12Can I settle up?
02:14Are you checking out?
02:15No, not till tomorrow, but I'll save a little hassle in the morning.
02:19Well, it was nice having you here.
02:20I hope you enjoyed.
02:21I mean, well, I hope your stay was...
02:24Er, my visit was instructive.
02:28Let's put it that way.
02:30I suppose you'll meet Gwen again today?
02:32Nope.
02:33Our meeting was a car crash.
02:36Predictably.
02:37I'm sorry to hear that.
02:39No, no, don't be.
02:42Maybe it's my fault she turned out the way she is.
02:45I'm sure she'd say that.
02:47Fine.
02:49I'll own it.
02:50It's all down to me.
02:52And then I shall let her ride off on her high horse and leave me out of her games.
03:01Hewitt, I'm sorry.
03:03Rant over.
03:03I just had to unload.
03:07Are you tired here for the whole day?
03:10No, no, I was just going to go well for a while.
03:14Would you like to take me out later?
03:17Me?
03:19Yeah.
03:19I can't think of anyone else I would like to spend my last evening in Dublin with.
03:27Not Gwen.
03:29Not Gwen.
03:29Least of all Gwen.
03:32To be honest, I wouldn't know where to bring it.
03:35Just lock her all down.
03:36But we'll stay clear of McCoy's, eh?
03:40All right, yeah.
03:41Yeah.
03:41Why not?
03:41I mean, I'd like that.
03:44Yeah.
03:44Yeah.
03:46Look.
03:48I know things have been tricky between us.
03:50And I'm sorry.
03:52It's okay.
03:53I understand.
03:55Just for me, it's hard to get past what Mundo did.
04:00Look, I know he didn't mean to kill Andop.
04:02I get that.
04:04It doesn't change the end result.
04:06How do you think he feels?
04:08Rodden, I hope.
04:10He does.
04:11Look, I know where you're coming from, and you know I see things differently,
04:14but can me and you not follow over it?
04:16That's what I was going to say.
04:18Great minds.
04:19Mm.
04:19And I'm sorry if I came down heavy on you.
04:22Still me?
04:23Absolutely.
04:24And you'll go easy on Mundo?
04:27Yeah.
04:28I just want to play snooker with him again.
04:30I just wish you wouldn't get bored.
04:32Here he is now.
04:35Mundo, are you serious?
04:37He wanted some advice on prison life, and I didn't get a chance before.
04:42Hi.
04:43Well, I had a bad time.
04:47We don't have to do this now.
04:48Eh, no, I was actually just lately.
04:51No, don't be silly.
04:52Me and Mundo's just gone for a walk, and anyway, weren't we?
04:55Yeah, of course.
04:57Right, let's go.
04:59See you.
05:03See you.
05:04Yeah.
05:08It's time I used this driver.
05:10What does that mean?
05:11Bad news?
05:12Another cancellation.
05:14Another?
05:15Not the first one this morning.
05:17You'll have days like that, I suppose.
05:19This is the act that customers can leave comments.
05:22I always wonder who bothers filling those in.
05:25Look at this one, about me.
05:26In future, I want any driver but this one.
05:30He's never had a problem with me until now.
05:33And there are others.
05:34Looks like you've robbed someone up the wrong way.
05:37Hey.
05:39Sorry, got chatting inside.
05:41No worries.
05:41You all right?
05:42All good, Victor?
05:43Yeah, great.
05:45Never better.
05:46Really?
05:47Things can always be better.
05:49Right, are you ready to go shopping?
05:55Hang in there.
06:01Is he out for lunch?
06:03Mondo hasn't been in.
06:06Who said he'd be here?
06:08Not today.
06:09If he comes in, we'll let him know you called.
06:11Have you any more news on the case?
06:14You know, considering the last briefing was a washout?
06:17Yeah, I'm just hunting down something actually...
06:21We'll let you know as soon as there are any further updates.
06:24That's it?
06:25That's all that I get?
06:26Ciara, we're on top of it.
06:28I promise.
06:37I'll get coffees.
06:38Do you want one?
06:39Sure, let me get them.
06:40No, no, let me.
06:41Seeing as I'm not the one playing catch-up.
06:43Again.
06:45Thanks.
06:55Dominic.
06:56Hi.
06:57Yeah, I'm calling about the Raymond O'Connell case.
06:59So don't get into death?
07:01Oh, don't gamble.
07:02Don't get it.
07:02Lend a van.
07:03Mm-mm.
07:04Okay.
07:04Don't owe anyone.
07:06That's the most important thing.
07:08Maybe that's enough for today.
07:10Yeah, I think so.
07:11Oh, but you know that thing about going up to the biggest guy in the yard and punching him?
07:14I'm not going to do that.
07:15That's the right answer.
07:16But try and make him your bestie.
07:18Offer him my auntie once.
07:20And I mean...
07:21Aunt.
07:23No, I'm just joking.
07:25Sorry, I was trying to lighten the mood.
07:26Okay, yeah, no, I got it.
07:28You'll get through this, I promise.
07:31This is great, thanks.
07:32You've been a great help, really.
07:34And if you want to chat again, that's no problem.
07:38I'll see you.
07:39Bye.
07:43Oh, remind me to pick up a box of crisps for the pub.
07:46Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot.
07:47Don't worry about it.
07:48You shouldn't have to make alliances.
07:50I'm not.
07:51I've often forgotten them myself.
07:53I am not going to let that woman rack my head.
07:56We know.
07:57And you're right.
07:59Is she still here?
08:02Don't know.
08:03Don't care.
08:04Don't ever want to see her again.
08:05I think that's a mistake.
08:06It is lovely that you're concerned.
08:09But you know what, Sash?
08:10I don't need minding.
08:12That's not what I'm doing.
08:14Okay.
08:15Right, well, um...
08:17It's time to blow off the cobwebs, then.
08:19And I'm enlisting you two.
08:22To do what?
08:23Drinks.
08:23In the station.
08:25As if you can still get cover.
08:26Well, yeah, I can, but I don't...
08:27Oh, come on.
08:28Get a lot of hair down.
08:29I've got work.
08:30No arguments.
08:31No excuses.
08:32Time to get the soakage in.
08:33Inform.
08:33You're next of kin.
08:34Gwen.
08:35Because you two are going to help me forget all about that terrorist losing.
08:39Because we are going on the terror.
08:44Carol.
08:46Have you been bad-mouthing me to my clients?
08:48Why would I do that?
08:49Oh, wait.
08:50You mean my clients?
08:51I've been driving some of those guys for two years.
08:54They used to ask specifically for me.
08:56Who do they ask?
08:58I built up that client list.
09:00You don't get to poach them.
09:01Well, hold on to them if you have to.
09:03Just cut out the slander, will you?
09:04Or you'll ruin me.
09:06Is it slander?
09:07If it's true.
09:09My grandson ended up in hospital.
09:11And you covered for Greg.
09:13That's what you've been telling my customers.
09:15Well, welcome to the free market.
09:17And a bit of advice.
09:19All that anger that you're feeling.
09:21Channel that energy into chasing up your own clients.
09:26Stay away from mine.
09:33Hey, Mondo hasn't been in, has he?
09:35Tried the office, but he hasn't been there all day.
09:38He was with Nicky earlier.
09:40Where?
09:41They met at the community centre.
09:43They went for a walk.
09:45Look, I told her not to get involved.
09:48She was giving him a voicemail, Chris.
09:52That's the last thing you need.
09:53She knows that.
09:56Oh, I have a better one.
09:58What?
09:59One lady genuinely came up to...
10:02I am not making this up.
10:04She said,
10:05Do all the staff sleep on the ship, too?
10:11I mean, where did you think we all go for now?
10:14Cocktail?
10:15Yeah.
10:17Actually, maybe we should head into town.
10:19Why?
10:20We're here now.
10:23I'm not leaving because she's here.
10:25Why would you want to be around her?
10:27Well, if anyone's leaving, it's going to be Lily.
10:30Right, come on.
10:31We're just here for a drink.
10:32You don't want confrontation.
10:33Oh, no, that's exactly what I want.
10:35Hang on, Quint.
10:36Let the fun begin.
10:40I don't want you here.
10:42Pretty Connery in to come in, then, isn't it?
10:45That was a mistake.
10:46I'll admit.
10:47Biggest one I've ever made in my life.
10:51I am having a quiet drink with my good friend, Hughie.
10:55I could do without Agra.
10:57But if that's what you want,
10:59then bring it.
11:02Get out!
11:03Well, we were just finishing up, aren't you, weren't you?
11:05No.
11:06No, no.
11:07I have time on my hands, and I'm enjoying myself.
11:12I'm not moving.
11:28You don't know what you're taking on there, Hughie.
11:30Laugh, Hughie.
11:31He's a mate.
11:32The latest sucker.
11:34Why are you even still here?
11:36If you two want to talk...
11:37No, no, no.
11:38There's nothing left to say.
11:40All little madam wants to do is judge me.
11:42Been there, done that.
11:44Gwen, they're not bothered.
11:45Remember, Commander, seat's over here.
11:47Hold on.
11:48Judge you?
11:50Oh, I wouldn't dream of it.
11:52Not with your tragic life story.
11:55I just want to know what's keeping you here.
11:57Now that your big payout is off the table.
12:00Aw.
12:01Do you need a cry on Hughie's shoulder?
12:02That's enough, Gwen.
12:04Baby, she's not worth it.
12:07I'll sail out tomorrow.
12:08Don't you worry, darling.
12:10You won't see me for dust.
12:13Hughie.
12:14I know you don't get to see your son and mistakes were made,
12:17but you'd change that if you could, wouldn't you?
12:21But this one...
12:22Gwen.
12:24Fine.
12:25Relax.
12:27It's just a bit of banter.
12:29Bit of mummy and daughter slagging.
12:32Isn't that right, Lily?
12:44And I got those other witness statements.
12:46Good.
12:46Not before time, but thanks.
12:48And I hunted down a few more precedents.
12:50Which might be useful.
12:52Gina and she's some help helps.
12:54You don't need to try and impress me.
12:56I'm not.
12:56It's about reassuring Ciara next to you.
12:59Ciara is happy.
13:00Amanda is happy.
13:02Yeah, of course.
13:09Are you OK, Mondo?
13:10Yeah, I'm great.
13:12Just trying to get a bit of work done.
13:15You know, we were due to have a meeting with Ciara,
13:18updating her on the case.
13:20Maybe we could have it with you now.
13:22Instead of talking about me?
13:24Sounds good.
13:26OK, well...
13:33Thanks.
13:34Where's the head?
13:35Upstairs.
13:36OK, call us another, will you?
13:38Yeah, will do.
13:44Kind of embarrassed now.
13:46Why?
13:48I used to have this picture of my beautiful, brave dead, ma.
13:52And then when I found out she was alive, I still held on to that.
13:56I couldn't wait to meet her in the flesh.
13:59More fool me.
14:01At least you know now.
14:03Our former civil servant's wife turned cruise ship gopher.
14:08Nice.
14:09Why is she even still here?
14:11Maybe she's hoping you'll talk to her.
14:14Flirting with you, more like.
14:16You know, I used to blame myself.
14:18That she died giving birth to me.
14:21Here's to no more guilt on that score.
14:24You were talking to Mondo.
14:26I was trying to help.
14:28But by the time I'd finish, he seemed upset.
14:30Yeah, well, what did you expect?
14:32Like, why would you want to drag him down with your prison stories, Nicky?
14:34Ciara, take it easy.
14:35Believe it.
14:36It's OK.
14:37You were putting Mondo above your friends, your family.
14:39No, I'm not.
14:40You know, no one's going to say this to you but me.
14:43Your behaviour is disgusting, is what it is.
14:57What's this?
14:59From the table there.
15:01Oh, a peace offering, that's something.
15:04No way.
15:06It's not a lot of tea.
15:07Oh, I'll take the drink, no problem.
15:13What's going on?
15:15Did you get drinks, then?
15:17No, I'm intending an olive branch.
15:19That's not your place.
15:25Just so you're under no illusions, those drinks were from Hughie, not me.
15:29I wouldn't waste my money.
15:30OK.
15:32And that's a win for you, is it?
15:35What a legend.
15:48Hey, hon.
15:49What's up?
15:50You know I said how the extra money could be useful.
15:54For a tumble dryer?
15:55Yeah, I was just having a look online there.
15:58Maybe we can wait a couple of weeks, eh?
16:00Well, there's a special offer and it's for a limited time only.
16:05Even until the weekend?
16:07OK.
16:08See you.
16:14As regards to preparations, we're as good as ready now.
16:18And those final witness statements?
16:19Yeah, they came in today.
16:21Not much help, I'm afraid.
16:23They're pretty neutral.
16:24No further damage, at least.
16:26OK, well, thanks for filling me in.
16:31Hey.
16:33Did they not tell you I was looking for you?
16:35We did, yeah.
16:37They did.
16:37They were just filling me in on their progress.
16:41Oh, the meeting you had scheduled with me?
16:43I can catch you up.
16:46I was worried about you.
16:47And then I heard that Nicky was dragging you down with our prison stories.
16:51Claire and Melanie have put in a lot of work.
16:54At least I can see you were taking the case seriously.
16:57Yeah, OK.
16:58Thanks.
16:58To both of you.
17:01Now, I'm sorry about earlier on.
17:04I'm tired of trial talk, so if there's nothing else...
17:08Of course.
17:10Do you feel like going out tonight?
17:12Do you?
17:13No witness statements, no prison etiquette.
17:16Just put everything aside for one night.
17:19Yeah.
17:20I'd like that.
17:21And we're in your corner, OK?
17:24You ready?
17:24Yeah.
17:25Let's go.
17:32You don't know the kind of pressure she was under back then.
17:36It was peace process times though, wasn't it?
17:39She can't have been in that much danger.
17:41Do you think?
17:42Look, I know lousy parents will always find a way to put themselves before their kids.
17:48I can see now that me going into that home was the best thing that ever happened to me.
17:52Anna was more of a family to me than she could ever hope to be.
17:58Look, she's only lashing out because she's hard.
18:01I didn't know you were a psychologist.
18:04If you'd both give each other a chance.
18:07When I said, uh, working on cruise ships isn't lonely, that wasn't quite true.
18:17I didn't think so.
18:19Yeah, when you're busy it's fine, but then sometimes when you're alone in your cabin,
18:25you can't escape the memories, the questions and the guilt scratching away in there.
18:35I always wondered how she was doing and was she OK?
18:40And I knew we'd have to come face to face one day.
18:44Half of me really wanted it, and the other half was terrified.
18:50But I didn't think I'd be conned into it.
18:57Oh, nice to see you, El.
18:59Yeah, yeah, we're going to the cinema.
19:02Used to go all the time, but haven't been in ages.
19:04That's lovely. Isn't it, Sian?
19:08Mm-hm. What are you going to see?
19:10We haven't decided yet.
19:12It doesn't matter, though, right?
19:14As long as they're not John Shawshankery.
19:17Sorry.
19:18Come on, let's get our drinks.
19:20Do you want to be late?
19:21See you.
19:22Enjoy.
19:27You can see Ciara's in a bad way, can't you?
19:30I saw she blanked us.
19:33Man don't need support.
19:35Poor fella.
19:36But so does Ciara.
19:38They're facing a lousy time, and she needs her brother by her side.
19:42And you think that's the vibe she's giving off?
19:44Oh, who cares?
19:45She's hurting.
19:47Man up, Sian.
19:48She needs you.
19:51Hey, can we settle up, please?
19:53Yeah.
19:54No, no, no.
19:55Let me get this.
19:57No, I'll pay my share.
19:58Please.
19:59I insist.
20:00You are a real gentleman.
20:03Sucker, more like.
20:05Watch it, Hughie.
20:06She'll take you for everything you've got.
20:08I think you've said enough.
20:10You're accusing me of freeloading.
20:12Well, it's hardly the worst thing I could say about you.
20:14Oh, come at me, Petal.
20:16I'll come back twice as hard.
20:18I know your sword.
20:19My sword?
20:20Can we just go?
20:22I've only been here a few days, and I have heard plenty about you.
20:27Remind me what brought you to Dublin again.
20:30Oh, yeah.
20:31Greed.
20:32Pure and simple.
20:34And I'm not the only one to have hung around with dodgy blokes, am I?
20:38Oh, what was his name?
20:41Zack.
20:42Sounds like a real prince.
20:43But I'm not the one who let her daughter believe you were dead.
20:48Aye.
20:49I think we should go.
20:51Yeah, there's nothing to keep me here.
20:55Gwen.
20:56Don't.
21:01I see empty glasses.
21:02No, we can't have that now, can we?
21:05Who's for a drink?
21:07If you're sure.
21:08Never been sure.
21:10See him again.
21:14And you still think she's moved on?
21:16She will.
21:17Once Lily's out of the picture.
21:18It's not that simple.
21:20I thought she said it was bad.
21:22Gwen is right to cut her out.
21:24Why do you think Gwen's so angry?
21:26Because Lily is a wagon.
21:28No, because she wanted Lily in her life.
21:30No, I'm not playing that.
21:32More than anything else, it's what she still wants and she can't have.
21:34It's eating her up.
21:36You've got it wrong.
21:38Once Lily is gone, she won't give her a second thought.
21:41You'll see.
21:44Hey.
21:47Now, did you know that somebody is trying to torpedo Victor's business?
21:51Go away.
21:53Who do you reckon would do that?
21:55Do you not think you're going a bit hard on it?
21:57No more than he deserves.
21:59The guy is trying to make it go.
22:01Yeah, good luck to him.
22:03You know what it's like starting a business.
22:05Yeah, well, no one ever gave me an easy time.
22:07But he's barely getting boy as it is.
22:10Well, he's a rival now.
22:12What, do you help your competitors?
22:14Don't go out of your way to crush them.
22:17Even if they try and rip you off.
22:20You know as well as I do that there's no holes barred when your livelihood's at stake.
22:26So, climb down off that pulpit.
22:28Fair enough.
22:34I think that there is a cheeky bottle of Augusto in the kitchen somewhere.
22:40What do you think?
22:41No, not from me.
22:42Of course not.
22:44Obviously, pardon me.
22:48It's in one of these.
22:51Cupboards.
22:52All right, I'll find it.
22:53You go sit down.
23:05Me or Mr. Barry.
23:07I don't care where you come from.
23:10Still my best pal, aren't you?
23:15Did I get you?
23:17So young and innocent.
23:20Pull life out of you.
23:22Found it.
23:24It was stowed away with the cream products.
23:26Are you sure you want to risk it?
23:27Yeah.
23:32Ice, lemon or by the neck?
23:34I think.
23:36Two.
23:46Once again.
23:46You
