00:00MUSIC
00:16Any chance you can transfer the money for the festival today?
00:19I have to pay a deposit for accommodation.
00:21Yeah, sure.
00:24I'll see you in the station for lunch, yeah?
00:26Oh, no, I can't today, cos I'm going to the bookies with JJ.
00:30I'm just helping them with some paperwork.
00:32No worries.
00:34See you.
00:45You all right?
00:48You do realise that this whole thing could backfire on you?
00:52Only if they find something in the Dominic Street bookies.
00:55Wish they won't.
00:56What if it doesn't work?
00:58What if Buckley comes back even harder with a vengeance?
01:02He's got nothing on me.
01:04Only hunches.
01:05Which he's right about.
01:07He's taking a big risk with this raid, which won't pay off.
01:10A hero guard is his own worst enemy.
01:13It's all good.
01:14Don't worry.
01:16All right, well, I'm coming with you to the bookies.
01:18I don't want Buckley in me face asking questions after his botched raid.
01:22It's better if we go about our day as usual.
01:24You and the station, me and the bookies.
01:26Don't worry about Buckley.
01:28You can handle him in your sleep.
01:30OK, I'm going to get dressed, all right?
01:35Someone's keen.
01:38Just Betty, opening up the shop.
01:42The alarm's going off.
01:43She put in the wrong code.
01:47You sure there's nothing else going on?
01:49What?
01:50No.
01:53Why am I getting a bad feeling about this?
01:56It's a fake raid to get Buckley over here.
01:59That's all.
02:01After today, we're back to normal.
02:06OK.
02:16Yeah, I'll be there.
02:18Midday.
02:19Use the back door.
02:21And no more texts.
02:27I'm eating Pete and Jarrods now to see if I can do a deal on those EVs.
02:32It's handy standing yours.
02:34Yeah, that's because Junior's on a sleepover.
02:36Send him on a few more of those, then.
02:39See you later.
02:40Yeah, why not?
02:44See ya.
02:50You can wipe that look off your face.
02:52I do not have a terminal illness.
02:54Well, he's staying over now.
02:55Yes, yes he is, because we're two adults.
02:58And that's what they do when they're seeing people.
03:00Orly, you don't have to settle for Lenny.
03:02He can do so much better than that.
03:04OK, that's rude.
03:06I'm not settling.
03:07He lied to you.
03:08Before.
03:09OK, he told you he'd already broken up with his wife when he hadn't.
03:12And no, don't give me that rubbish about him changing.
03:14Sorry, so you're saying that people can't change?
03:18He's not the first person to cheat on his partner, is he?
03:23Me and Mondo have a long history.
03:25And we have a child together, Orly.
03:26It's not the same thing.
03:27Isn't it?
03:28He's saying that Lenny doesn't deserve a second chance.
03:32Look, he feels terrible about how he treated me before,
03:35and he wants to make amends and prove himself.
03:39Fine.
03:40I'll back off.
03:41Well, I'd appreciate that.
03:54Er, I'll get these.
04:02No.
04:03You're all right.
04:04Can I get one coffee, please?
04:06Er, if you could make that too, and I'm paying.
04:11And I'm gonna tell Dolores that you did all my clients last week.
04:15And get me the trouble with her?
04:17I'm just trying to make it up to you.
04:19By buying me a coffee and then dropping me in with Dolores?
04:23Hi.
04:24Hi.
04:24Er, are you on your way to this salon?
04:27We're on our way there now.
04:28I'll be in later, but I'm glad I caught you.
04:31Lily, I've put you forward for a radio interview today at lunchtime.
04:35I checked the book, and you seem to be free.
04:38Oh, right.
04:40A radio interview?
04:41Yeah, it's about summer haircare.
04:43There's a few salons taking part.
04:44I thought you might enjoy it.
04:47Do you know, actually, I'd be useless at that.
04:51I'd be so nervous, I'd completely clam up, sweaty palms, the lot.
04:59Georgie.
05:00You could do it.
05:02You'd be fabulous.
05:04Yeah, well, I wasn't asked, was I?
05:05Are you free?
05:06Your diary looked pretty busy.
05:08I have a couple of regulars booked in,
05:10but nobody that would mind changing their time.
05:12Great.
05:13You do it then.
05:14Yeah, I'll send you on the details.
05:18How exciting.
05:20You're going on the radio.
05:21Yeah, well, I was second choice, wasn't I?
05:23No, only because you had so many bookings.
05:28And you are the trained hairdresser.
05:30Well, that's true.
05:32Uh-huh.
05:33What are you going to talk about?
05:34Well, I don't know.
05:35But nothing too boring, anyway.
05:37You could never be boring.
05:42Hey.
05:45I hope this all goes smoothly.
05:47Yeah, of course I will.
05:49No funny business with JJ.
05:52What's that supposed to mean?
05:53No many precautions.
05:56Well, nothing's going to happen,
05:57because nothing's actually happening.
05:58That's the whole point, isn't it?
05:59I hope so.
06:01As much as you think JJ is a good bloke,
06:04he is what he is.
06:05Same as us all.
06:08You just don't trust him, do you?
06:10Not for a second.
06:11He's always one step ahead.
06:13Well, not with me, he isn't.
06:17Heads up.
06:22Carole knows.
06:24Detective Buckley.
06:32Do you think there's something going on there?
06:34Carole knows we're watching her.
06:36Relax.
06:38It's all in hand.
06:44Have you found another plus one yet?
06:45No.
06:46You've really left me in the lurch.
06:48Is this thing for Tommy's pal Uncle Kenny such a big deal?
06:51I mean, could you not go over the weekend?
06:52No.
06:53You have to find somebody else.
06:54There is no one else.
06:56There's someone you could try.
06:59Another chance.
07:00I'm not exactly her favourite person at the moment,
07:02and I don't blame her.
07:03Don't be so grumpy.
07:04She'd be perfect.
07:05She probably couldn't do it anyway.
07:07It's very short notice.
07:08And I'm not grumpy.
07:10Just ask nicely.
07:18Hi.
07:21Hello.
07:22I was wondering if you might be free today.
07:25Why?
07:27I need a plus one for a business lunch.
07:29Why, O'Connor?
07:30You really know how to sweep a woman off her feet.
07:33I'm asking as a favour.
07:35That's all.
07:36Is this because Emma blew you off for Tommy?
07:38Which, by the way, she should have.
07:40She left me high and dry, actually.
07:42And I know her drink the other night was a let down.
07:45Really, you think?
07:46I'm sorry, okay?
07:49Forget it.
07:50You've nothing to be sorry for.
07:52So will you come, then?
07:53Please?
07:55Today's a bit tricky.
07:55I'm supposed to be in Venus all afternoon.
07:57Can you get cover?
08:00I don't know.
08:01I could ask Dean or Zoe.
08:04If you offer them double the rate, I'd pay the difference.
08:07And there's a free lunch and drinks in it for you, too.
08:10Oh.
08:15You're in luck.
08:17So, come on, tell me.
08:18Who are we having lunch with, just so as I know?
08:22Queendale Developers.
08:23Queendale.
08:24I want them to come in on a joint venture with me.
08:26And I'll owe you a big time.
08:29See you in the station at half twelve?
08:30You will.
08:31We'll start.
08:55Carol, sorry.
08:56You haven't transferred that cash yet.
08:57I need to pay the deposit.
08:58Thanks.
09:00Everything is set.
09:02Car's picking us up outside.
09:04If you go ahead with this raid,
09:06and end up empty handed,
09:08it won't look good with the boss.
09:10We've been hounding Nash for weeks and got nowhere.
09:12There is no if I'm going ahead.
09:16I'm willing to take the risk.
09:18And it's my decision.
09:20I thought you'd have plan B in the works.
09:21This will save us the trouble.
09:23We couldn't get Nash on harbouring a criminal.
09:25So we'll get him on money laundering.
09:26I can't wait to see the look on his face.
09:29JJ, can you get Carol to call me?
09:30Actually, forget it. I'll come to you.
09:33Hello, Lorcan.
09:35Alright.
09:36What do you want? I haven't done anything.
09:38Relax.
09:40What are you after?
09:41What's it to you?
09:42What's in the bag?
09:44Spray paint.
09:45You don't mind your tag in any buildings.
09:46I don't have a tag. I keep telling you that.
09:49No need to be defensive.
09:51I'm just going to see Carol, alright? She's in the bookies.
09:54Why didn't you say?
09:55We can give you a lift.
09:56It's only around the corner.
10:00Nash is in Carrickstone bookies.
10:02Of course he is.
10:05This is a set up and it almost worked.
10:07Are you calling off the raid?
10:09No, Dominic Street is a decoy to get us out of the way.
10:13He thinks he's so smart.
10:14The cash drop is happening here.
10:17Right under our noses.
10:20We need an emergency warrant.
10:22Now.
10:31Where's Betty?
10:32Told me she was working today.
10:33You should go.
10:35Stop being so jumpy.
10:37Getting text messages telling me that Betty's working when she isn't.
10:41Stop lying to me.
10:44Fine.
10:46I sent Buckley to Dominic Street so I could take a cash drop here.
10:50What?
10:51You've got the guards crawling all over you.
10:54And you're giving out fake tip-offs to move money out.
10:57Larkin.
10:59Hey.
11:00What are you doing here?
11:01I was ringing you.
11:02Both of you.
11:03You haven't transferred the cash for the festival yet.
11:06Sorry to ask but I have to pay for everything today.
11:08Oh yeah.
11:09Look, sorry.
11:09I'll do it.
11:10I'll do it now, okay?
11:11Thanks.
11:13Alright.
11:14It's done.
11:15Go on.
11:16Off you go.
11:16Stay out of trouble.
11:17What's that supposed to mean?
11:19I'm only messing with you.
11:20No one was in that detective stopped me earlier.
11:22It basically accused me of tagging.
11:24Asking if I had spray cans in my bag.
11:26What's that about?
11:28What did they say exactly?
11:29They wanted to know where I was going and what I was doing.
11:31That's harassment, isn't it?
11:34What did you tell them?
11:35I was coming to see you here.
11:38Is that alright?
11:39Yeah, of course it is.
11:41Ignore them.
11:42They're just trying to annoy you.
11:45Alright, off you go.
11:45Go on, that's done.
11:47Thanks.
11:48See you, love.
11:50You can bet your life that Buckley's coming right here now
11:52and he's going to turn this office upside down.
11:54And he's going to find the money.
12:09Just leave.
12:10I'll sort it.
12:11The guards could be here anyway.
12:13I didn't realise that.
12:14So go, now.
12:23Victor.
12:25Will you get over to the Buckley's ASAP? Yeah.
12:28Pull up at the back door and I'm going to meet you there.
12:31Okay.
12:37Victor's on his way, alright?
12:38I'll take the money.
12:39And you deal with Buckley, alright?
12:42Bill.
12:50Hi, everyone.
12:51It's your lucky day.
12:52Free bet on the next race.
12:54Line up here.
12:56Bye for each.
12:57Bye for each.
13:00Guardie.
13:01Everyone out.
13:02I said everyone out.
13:06Come on, come on.
13:07Give your name to the guards outside.
13:09Answer any questions.
13:10You.
13:11Open that door.
13:13I said open it.
13:17Detective Buckley.
13:18Detective Buckley.
13:19Didn't have you down as a betting man.
13:21Now the favourite is looking rock solid in the 125s.
13:24Six to four, if you wanted.
13:25I'm not here to place a bet.
13:27I'm here to search the premises.
13:30Really?
13:35Why?
13:37Well, you'll be wasting your time.
13:39Stop stalling and open that door.
13:48Come on, come on.
13:49Get a move on.
13:50Alright.
13:54Try not to break anything.
14:03Hiya.
14:03Ah, here she is now.
14:05This is Orla.
14:06My, um...
14:07Business advisor.
14:08Not that he means it,
14:09because he does a great job on his own.
14:10Go on.
14:10This is Richard and Alison.
14:12Lovely to meet you both.
14:13I am a big fan of yours.
14:16That student resi development you did in Galway
14:18was absolutely stunning.
14:20And the fact that you're a family-run business,
14:22I mean, that is very rare these days.
14:24Can I get you a drink?
14:25You most certainly can.
14:26A sparkling water, please.
14:27I'm on my way.
14:28Back in a moment.
14:29So, tell me,
14:30how long did it actually take
14:31to complete the project in Galway?
14:42The comic guys aren't here at the moment?
14:44Yeah.
14:45Why don't you come back later?
14:47I'm here to see you, actually.
14:51Here's more intel on the Sullivan case.
14:53Proof that O'Dowd made false claims before
14:55under a different name.
14:57Er...
14:57What are you talking about?
14:58And hold on, how do you even know about that case?
15:03You must have overheard me talk about it here last week.
15:07Melanie asked me to work on it.
15:09All of the intel that she's provided you with came from me.
15:13I did it.
15:14All of it.
15:14He did a bit of digging online.
15:16Nothing major.
15:18She specifically asked me to work on the case
15:20and said that you weren't a know.
15:23No.
15:25Thank you for this.
15:28Would you mind waiting outside for me?
15:30Of course.
15:38I should have told you.
15:40What, that the firm hired, erm,
15:43unlicensed investigator who uses hacking
15:45and other illegal means to get information?
15:47Yes, you should have told me.
15:48But we didn't pay him,
15:49so there's no paper trail.
15:51It's his word against ours.
15:52You got him to work for free.
15:54Actually, I...
15:55I don't even want to know about that now.
15:59Download whatever is on this.
16:01And I'll deal with Virgil.
16:14You must be having a good laugh, are you?
16:16Yeah.
16:17There's no cash drop at the bookies.
16:20My source wouldn't lie to me, I can promise you that.
16:23They were very clear.
16:25Dominic Street today...
16:26Except he wasn't in Dominic Street.
16:28He was in Carrickstone bookies.
16:31Don't tell me you raided Carrickstone bookies instead.
16:35You did, didn't you?
16:37JJ.
16:38JJ is slippery, you know that.
16:40And JJ's just slipped through your fingers again.
16:44I gave you what you wanted.
16:46Now I want what's owed to me.
16:49It's not my fault you went to the wrong place.
16:53So I want my stock released,
16:54and the guards off my back, as agreed.
16:57I'll make the call.
17:00You better get something on JJ and Ash soon.
17:02Or you're going to look like a right fool.
17:09We're moving to plan B.
17:11It's going to take time.
17:13I can wait.
17:17Look, I'm telling the truth.
17:19Melanie asked me to do that work.
17:21I'm sure she did.
17:24So what's this then?
17:26Your ability to source information is exceptional.
17:32I'm assuming your methods aren't always conventional, so to speak.
17:37Well, the information's out there.
17:38You just know where to look.
17:39You also have a history of hacking our website, causing problems.
17:44It was just meant to be a prank.
17:45Got it out of hand, okay?
17:47Is that an apology?
17:49Sure.
17:50If you're happy to keep on working for us, under the radar,
17:53I'll pay you.
17:56So to me.
17:58Good.
17:59Coffee.
18:00Sure.
18:09Thanks very much.
18:11Take care.
18:12Have a lovely evening, thanks.
18:14Bye.
18:14Bye.
18:17Well, they all loved you.
18:18And why wouldn't they?
18:19Well, I was very impressed.
18:20You did your research on the company before meeting them.
18:22Oh, did you expect me to turn up and talk about the weather or getting my nails done?
18:29No.
18:30No.
18:30And it worked.
18:31I think they're going to do business with us now.
18:33Well, that's down to me.
18:34Yes, it is.
18:35And I can't thank you enough.
18:37No, I can't thank you.
18:38It was...
18:40Oh, it was just fun to go out and do something different.
18:43You know, pretend I was a successful businesswoman on top of her game.
18:47There was no pretending there.
18:49You were sensational today.
18:50Oh, thank you.
18:51Oh.
18:52And I was very proud to have you as my plus one.
18:59Thank you, daughter.
19:01Welcome.
19:20What was that?
19:22Nothing.
19:24Relax.
19:26Me and Melanie played a game of chicken.
19:28And I won.
19:29That's all.
19:30We're all friends again.
19:33See you.
19:39Georgie was amazing in this interview.
19:41Aw.
19:42You were made for radio.
19:43Not everyone can do it.
19:44You did really well.
19:46I loved your disaster hair stories.
19:48Ah, yeah.
19:49No, I did do pretty good.
19:50Even if I'd use this on myself.
19:53Well, I'm sorry I missed it.
19:54I'll send you a link.
19:56You were better than I would have been, definitely.
19:58I'd have been useless.
20:00What's this?
20:01I asked Lily to do it first.
20:04Yeah, but I'm terrible at public speaking.
20:08Oh, I'd break out in hives.
20:11I'd be so nervous.
20:13Sorry, can I just borrow Lily for a wee minute?
20:20You said that you used to MC on the cruise ships and you loved it.
20:24Unless you were lying about that.
20:26No.
20:27I said that so that Dolores would ask Georgie.
20:30I have been trying to make it up to him since last week.
20:33He wasn't having any of it.
20:35Well, I'm not surprised.
20:36Getting him to do your work for you.
20:37I feel terrible enough, okay?
20:40But look at him now.
20:42He's back to his old self.
20:43He's buzzing.
20:45That was a really nice thing to do.
20:47Yeah, can't just let me do my thing, you know?
20:52Work my charm.
20:54I forgot how good I was.
20:56You're a pro.
20:58I know, but knowing that he had my back, it just made it easier, you know?
21:05He's a great guy.
21:06He's respectful and funny.
21:10Surprisingly funny.
21:11So you've forgiven him then for walking out on your jay the other night?
21:14Yeah, I think he's grovelled enough.
21:15And I don't think it comes naturally to him.
21:17But hang on, do you not think I should have forgiven him?
21:21Of course I do.
21:22I'm all about second chances.
21:23Right?
21:26We had these moments, you know, where we were kind of...
21:32We collied others' eyes across the table.
21:36It was exciting, you know.
21:39If I didn't know any better, Orla, I would say you have a crush on Con Rafferty.
21:43Do not be stupid.
21:46Okay, maybe a little...
21:48Oh, I'd forgotten about him.
21:51Good.
21:51Hi.
21:52Hi.
21:53What's in the bag?
21:53Just a few things to keep it yours for when I stay over.
21:57Okay.
21:58Can you just give us a little second?
22:00Lenny, come here.
22:04I don't think this is going to work.
22:05What?
22:07Why not?
22:08Well, I'm going to take part of the blame, okay?
22:10I should never have let you start things up again.
22:14What's brought this on?
22:16We're having fun, aren't we?
22:17No, we're not.
22:18Actually, I'm not.
22:20Oh.
22:21This is what you want.
22:24But if I walk away now, I'm not coming back.
22:28I'm okay with that.
22:37I met Ger earlier.
22:40Just delighted in there.
22:41They're everything sorted.
22:44She must have come into some extra cash.
22:49Don't you start.
22:51Seriously, though.
22:53I'd probably be in custody if it wasn't for you.
23:01You took a big risk today.
23:02Look, I don't want the details.
23:05Just promise me that was a once-off.
23:09Because I might not be there to save your skin the next time.
23:13And I don't think that I'd be up for prison visits.
23:17It won't come to her.
23:19It better not.
23:23Hey.
23:25You all sorted for the festival?
23:26Yep.
23:27All done.
23:28Thanks.
23:29Back in a minute.
23:38So what was really going on today then in the bookies?
23:41I heard you talking when I was coming in.
23:43Something about moving money around.
23:47Yeah, we were just going to ask Nora to do a deep clean in the place, you know.
23:53No one's touched a shelf in that place for the last ten years.
23:56You just have to move things around, you know.
23:59The safe and all of that.
24:01So what's the accommodation like?
24:03It's a holiday home near a beach.
24:05Very fancy.
24:06Mm.
24:07All right.
