00:01You
00:32What do you reckon, shall we just run?
00:34I'll do whatever you want to do, okay?
00:37We can run, we can stay, we can call the police.
00:40I'm not calling the police on my wedding day now, Jesus Christ.
00:42Well, how about we form a small gang?
00:44Try and get them out there for us.
00:46A gang?
00:47That's your answer, form a gang?
00:48I'm not an official gang, just a bunch of people who can help.
00:51Come on, Niall, no one here knows a damn thing about physical violence.
00:53I do, I box, remember?
00:56I'm a boxer.
00:57Oh, please.
00:58Please, you haven't boxed since you were 20, by that logic I'm still a student.
01:02I'm just saying, I'll do whatever you want, okay?
01:05I'll go and have it out with him now if I have to.
01:07Don't.
01:09Don't do that.
01:12Let's just do it.
01:15Okay, let's just get through this.
01:18I just hope he's not here for me.
01:19He's not, okay?
01:21He's not.
01:23How can you be so sure?
01:25Because I know.
01:30I know.
01:32I know.
01:37He's not here for me.
01:39He's not here for me.
01:43He's not here for me.
01:48He's not here for me.
01:53He's not here for me.
01:55He's not here for me.
01:58He's not here for me.
01:59He's not here for me.
02:00He's not here for me.
02:01He's not here for me.
02:02He's not here for me.
02:02He's not here for me.
02:02He's not here for me.
02:02He's not here for me.
02:40How many is this cunt taken?
02:43Well, more than one, probably.
02:45Sorry guys, just finding the light.
02:47Jesus Christ, this is Glasgow.
02:49We lost the fucking light in May.
02:51Just take the photo, will you?
02:56Your printouts will be over on the desk in around ten minutes.
03:00I'd like to fuck through that.
03:04What?
03:05Don't get this bloody national obsession with capture in the moment.
03:09It's hard enough being seen in public as it is, let alone being trapped in time as well.
03:18Don't give me that look, Niles.
03:21You know I'm very proud.
03:27Who's the chick?
03:29Joanna.
03:30She likes you.
03:32Yeah, it's suffocating.
03:34She's coming over.
03:35Right, well, just play it cool, alright?
03:38Don't make out we're more than we are.
03:39You're ridiculous.
03:41You must be Niles' mum, Laurie, right?
03:43Yes, love.
03:44You must be his girlfriend, Joanna.
03:47What?
03:48No, I'm not.
03:50Oh, sorry my mistake.
03:52You just seem like such an amazing couple.
03:55Did you hear that, Niles?
03:57Yep, certainly did.
03:58Anyway, I'll see you at the pub later on for the big celebration.
04:01It was nice meeting you, Laurie.
04:02Please, call me mum.
04:03Oh, erm, okay.
04:06Oh, well, bye mum.
04:08Bye.
04:12Oh, sorry.
04:13You teed it up for me.
04:14I couldn't resist.
04:15Do you know, she doesn't have a mum, so that's just going to make everything worse.
04:19Excellent.
04:26Look, I have to talk to you about something.
04:28Can you take a seat?
04:30You know what you have to talk to me about?
04:31And let's just, I'll tell you when we sit down.
04:33Why don't you tell me just now, Mum?
04:34Jesus Christ.
04:37I have to ask, have you spoken to Ruben lately?
04:43Er, er, nah, not so much.
04:45We're different people these days.
04:47You'd believe that.
04:48There's a lot of you in Ruben, has to be said.
04:51Probably why you hate him so much.
04:52I don't hate him.
04:54I just, I don't think he should have done what he did.
04:59Well, he's making up for it now, Nile.
05:01You know he's been volunteering.
05:03I know that.
05:05I just don't trust it, you know?
05:07Well, that's fine.
05:08But either way, you're going to have to go and see him soon.
05:11He's feeling a little blindsided by this court case.
05:13And he could do it with your support.
05:15Do you have any idea why I'll be waiting so long to press charges?
05:18Well, he couldn't while he was in a coma, could he?
05:20I know that, Mum.
05:21Jesus.
05:23I just...
05:24He was in a coma for six months.
05:26It's been years since then.
05:27Oh, come on.
05:27Ruben, don't twat down the station the second you wake up.
05:31He probably spent the first few years figuring out which hole to shit out of.
05:37I don't know.
05:38I just find it strange as all.
05:40Well, so does Ruben.
05:42Which is why he needs to talk to you about a change in tactic.
05:47What change in tactic?
05:48Look, Niall, I don't want to worry you.
05:50But you're involved, apparently.
05:53Something to do with you and Albie.
05:58Anyway.
06:00I'm off to burn those printouts.
06:25Oi.
06:27Bambi.
06:28To what do I owe the pleasure?
06:30No, it's just, uh, Mum said you needed to tell me something.
06:40Cup of tea?
06:41Yeah, sure. Thanks.
06:45So, how was it?
06:46The graduation?
06:48Ah, you know.
06:49Self-conscious hell.
06:52Look, sorry I didn't invite you.
06:54I didn't think it was your scene.
06:57Nah.
06:57No biggie.
06:58We'll have our own celebration.
07:00Just the two of us when I get off.
07:07Yeah.
07:08Put your fucking weird energy into that.
07:11Right.
07:12Look, Mum said there was some changes in the case.
07:16Something involving me.
07:17Yeah, it's to do with you and Albie.
07:19Why?
07:19Why was he said about me?
07:21Why do you always ask that?
07:22Because I need to know.
07:23I need to know if he's making up shit.
07:25Okay.
07:26Sit back, you fucking dick.
07:37I need you to say he groped me.
07:40You know, just before I battered him.
07:46I'm sorry, what?
07:47I need you to say he groped me.
07:52But he didn't grope you.
07:53I know, but we need some sort of angle.
07:55A reason as to why I went so hard in.
08:01Look, Niall, I'm looking at up to ten years here.
08:05And I spent my childhood biting the nose off of cunts.
08:09I hate putting this all on you.
08:10But you're the difference here, bro.
08:13Joanna didn't see it.
08:14Celeste has disappeared back to France to eat frogs
08:17and nobody's heard from her.
08:18That leaves three people in the room.
08:21But won't it look dodgy that I never said this to begin with?
08:25What, more dodgy than a cunt waking up from a coma
08:27and vividly remembering it?
08:28Come on, son.
08:33I don't know, Ruben.
08:37Just consider it, yeah?
08:41Hey, come down the community centre.
08:43See for yourself all the good that I'm doing.
08:46Meet the kids.
08:48All the poor wee faces that will be fucking devil if I go down.
08:53But why a grump?
08:55Ruben, I don't understand.
08:56Because he's gay and it carries that believability factor.
09:01You see, according to my lawyer,
09:05the only thing the jury hates more than a thug
09:07is a fag.
09:19Shh, shh, more is this for you?
09:21I don't care.
09:22Have you heard what Ruben's asking me to do?
09:24Christ.
09:25Come here.
09:33I have, yes.
09:34Well, it's sick and depraved and illegal.
09:38I mean, what do I even do?
09:40I think you should do it.
09:42What?
09:44Are you serious right now?
09:46Yes, Niall.
09:47It's about giving him the best fighting chance.
09:49He's trying so hard right now.
09:50Trying so hard?
09:51That justifies bludgeoning someone half to death, does it?
09:53Well, look, I'm only giving you my opinion.
09:55Yeah, and I'm giving you the facts.
09:58This could mess up my whole future.
10:00I have my Oxford interview coming up in two days.
10:02The guy's travelling up here to meet me.
10:04I need to stay focused.
10:05You don't want to go to a punty place like that.
10:07Yes, yes, I do.
10:09Plus, it's creative writing.
10:10I'm following in Dad's footsteps.
10:12How are you following in his footsteps?
10:14He worked in a bar his entire life.
10:15If anything, you're making him jealous.
10:19All we are asking is that you take the time
10:22to properly consider it.
10:24Go down the centre, hang out a bit,
10:26get to know one another again.
10:28Because he's changed, Niall.
10:30He really has.
10:32OK?
10:33Just promise me you can do that.
10:50There he is, the man of the moment.
10:58Honestly, everyone's delighted for you, Niall.
11:00I've told them everything.
11:00I hope you don't mind.
11:01All the post-grad offers you have coming in,
11:03including your Oxford interview.
11:05Honestly, it's amazing.
11:07It really is.
11:15Where did that come from?
11:18Uh, I have no idea.
11:19Well, best not question it.
11:20Much easier to do it again.
11:28Let's get out of here, Anne.
11:29Wait, what about the others?
11:31We'll phase them out over the summer.
11:32Don't worry.
11:53Hey.
11:55Hey.
11:58Last night was so romantic.
12:01We got a kebab and went to sleep.
12:03Yeah.
12:04But it was a great kebab.
12:08I'm actually a bit annoyed at you now, Kennedy.
12:10I've been chasing you for the best part of four years.
12:13And now you decide to do something about it.
12:15Yeah, I know what you mean.
12:16Yeah, and you'll be going to Oxford soon, and once you're down there, you won't think about me at all.
12:22Well, let's worry about that after the interview tomorrow.
12:25That's not the right answer.
12:29I'm hinting, Niall.
12:31I want to know where I stand with you.
12:41Look, I like you, Joanna.
12:42I really do.
12:44And I'm keen to explore this while I'm up here.
12:49But if I get in, I might just want a completely fresh start down there.
12:53You know, I'm hoping it might be the change that I need to finally, you know, be myself.
12:59I don't understand.
13:01How am I stopping you from being yourself?
13:07It's hard to describe.
13:09I just find it strange.
13:10You've never been to England, and now you want to go so bad.
13:14I mean, what's it all about for you?
13:16In a word.
13:24Freedom.
13:50Yes, mate.
13:51You made it.
13:53All right, boys, listen up.
13:55We are in the presence of greatness.
13:58This boy right here is the king of Glasgow.
14:01Graduated top of his university year.
14:03What do we do, kids, when someone graduates top of their university year?
14:07We clap.
14:07Yes, that's right, Simon.
14:09We clap.
14:13That was a gamble.
14:14He could have easily said master back.
14:17Here, I'll introduce you to everyone.
14:32He's got a good thing going on here.
14:33Yeah, man.
14:34Loving it.
14:36They have this motto on the wall at the back of the building which reads,
14:38Yes, the key to salvation is helping others.
14:41All right.
14:42And do you believe that?
14:44No chance.
14:45The key to salvation is a Big Mac meal and a Pokebum wank.
14:51I can see what they're getting at.
14:57So, what, are you doing all this to look good in the eyes of the jury or something?
15:01Get the fuck.
15:03I worked here long before that plum decided to press charges.
15:05You would know this if you ever bothered to visit me.
15:08Yeah, no, sorry, Ruben.
15:10My last few years at Uni were a bit intense.
15:12I needed to get my head down a bit.
15:14Yeah, yeah.
15:15Excuses, excuses.
15:17Oh, I forgot.
15:18There's this big treasure hunt thing on Sunday out in Cashel Forest.
15:23You should join.
15:24We're always looking for volunteers.
15:26Ah, I don't know, Ruben.
15:27No, come on, it'll be great.
15:29There's a northerly breeze that day too,
15:31so if we walk in the right direction, we can keep the little bastards downwind.
15:40Yeah, sure.
15:41Great.
15:41I'll speak to Malky.
15:42Get you government checked.
15:43Make sure you haven't fiddled anyone.
15:48Wait a minute.
15:49How on earth did you pass the body test?
15:51My record got wiped when I was 16.
15:53I'm clean as a whistle, baby.
15:55Makes me wish I did more before the cut-off point, if I'm honest.
15:58So, what about this latest stuff with Albie?
16:02Don't you mind about that?
16:03Nah.
16:04Innocent till proving guilty.
16:05Plus, I explained the situation to him.
16:08Told everyone the wee fucker groped me.
16:09And quite frankly,
16:12they're as outraged as I am.
16:30It's impressive.
16:32I'll give you that.
16:35I'm sorry.
16:36I'm just saying,
16:37it's impressive that you've written all this
16:39whilst doing your undergrad.
16:41Where on earth did you find the time?
16:44Oh, I know how to push myself, I suppose.
16:48And this is all while sitting as president of the drama society?
16:51That's correct.
16:52Good God.
16:53It's a lot, Mr. Kennedy, I must say.
16:57What on earth are you running from?
17:04You don't have to answer that.
17:06No, I know.
17:07I'm just...
17:11I'm sorry.
17:15Do you need someone?
17:16No.
17:17No, I'm fine.
17:18I'm happy to finish a little earlier.
17:20No.
17:20No, please.
17:22I'm sorry.
17:23Let's keep going to the end.
17:26Oh, I must insist.
17:29I've seen all I need to see.
17:34Thank you, Mr. Kennedy.
17:46Knock, knock.
17:49Okay.
17:50I'll let myself in.
17:52Hope you don't mind.
17:54Joanna called.
17:55She said you were in a bit of a tailspin.
17:56How did she get your number?
17:58My guess is that Edipo monstrosity on the wall.
18:07Didn't go well then.
18:09Nah.
18:11Shit.
18:13I suppose this is the part where you blame this Ruben business
18:15on why it went so badly.
18:17Nah, it was me that messed it up.
18:19None of that helped.
18:43It's just so much.
18:45All this.
18:45Everything that's going on.
18:46I know, love, but we wouldn't ask you
18:49if we didn't think it was important.
18:51But what's more important than my future?
18:54My happiness?
18:54My values?
18:56Seriously, Mum, seriously, answer me.
18:58Because if you're sitting on something here
19:00that can help me get my head around this,
19:01then you'd better see it now.
19:03Because I can't just follow you in blind faith.
19:07And it'd better be good to, like,
19:08Ruben has a child on the way
19:10or Maura is dying or something
19:12because I can't see any other reason
19:13as to why you would put me in...
19:21Oh, my God.
19:24She's dying, isn't she?
19:29Yes, Niall.
19:33Right.
19:34Well, what is it, like, cancer or something?
19:42Yes, Niall.
19:46Okay.
19:47But, like,
19:49are you worried it's serious?
19:55Yes, Niall.
20:02Jesus, Mum.
20:04Why didn't you say...
20:05I didn't want to distract you
20:06ahead of your interview.
20:11Plus, we didn't want you
20:12to go and tell Ruben.
20:14He doesn't know.
20:15And it's important he keeps his focus right now
20:18with everything going on.
20:20So that's...
20:20That's why you want me to do it so hard.
20:22The truth is we're going to need him around.
20:25And you're going to be off somewhere
20:26writing books
20:27and putting that big brain of yours to work.
20:30Do you really want to give that all up
20:32to sit at home every day
20:33helping me move her from the bed to the shitter?
20:36Because I won't put her in a home, Niall.
20:38No way.
20:40I'll do it just to spite you.
20:44We need an answer, Niall.
20:47It's not fair to leave this uncertainty
20:48hanging over us.
20:51Not when we're going through all this.
21:18What's this?
21:46You're a good fucker for helping me.
21:49Can you believe they're trusting us to take all this shit for them on Sunday?
22:01What?
22:05I'm gonna do it.
22:08I'm gonna give a statement.
22:13You fucking...
22:14Dancer, you!
22:20Oh, man, man, man!
22:22You motherfucker!
22:23You kept me waiting, you bastard!
22:25You utter bastard!
22:28Honestly, man, what took you so long?
22:31You had us all up in arms questioning it.
22:33Who?
22:34Me?
22:35Maura?
22:36Your mum?
22:38We just couldn't understand it.
22:39Why you were protecting him so much.
22:42I mean, we all had our theories.
22:45That he was funding your uni tuition.
22:48Or Celeste had some dirt on you that he knew about.
22:52I mean, Maura even joked that you and him were getting cock-hungry together.
22:56What?
22:58That's fucking ridiculous.
22:59I know you twat.
23:01Just got us all talking.
23:03I mean, there was certainly something going on between you that day you didn't want me to hear.
23:12It's nice to finally meet you, Joanna.
23:15It's nice to meet you.
23:17Here, love.
23:18I'll show you where to hang your coat.
23:28Look, I'm sorry to hear...
23:30Oh, no, don't worry.
23:31We don't have to go into all that.
23:34I'm just very grateful now, yeah?
23:38I waited the best part of six years to get you to do something for me.
23:41And all I needed to do was get cancer.
23:58He's just had another offer from Glasgow.
24:00So that's six universities now, begging for his genius.
24:03Aren't you bored of Glasgow?
24:04Hmm.
24:05A little maybe.
24:06It's not my first choice, anyway.
24:07What's your first choice?
24:09Well, it was Oxford, but it doesn't look like that's happened there.
24:13Ah, you don't want to go to Oxford anyway, Niall.
24:15Christ almighty.
24:16They'll throw pennies at your feet.
24:18Do you ever say anything helpful?
24:20No, not really.
24:22But when I do, it's going to blow your mind.
24:25I think you both have a sweet dynamic.
24:27I think there's real love there.
24:28You know, I feel the same way about the two of you.
24:35So, what are your plans, Joanna, now uni's done?
24:38Oh, I have no idea, actually.
24:39Maybe move back home and fall pregnant at a frightfully young age like everyone else does.
24:44What did you study again?
24:45Primary teaching.
24:46Why don't you get a job in that?
24:48Because I'll end up teaching people like me, and part of me needs to break that cycle.
24:51You know, for the sake of humanity.
24:56She's good.
24:59You know, Maura, I didn't think we'd get on after what Ruben did,
25:03but I've long learned you need to separate the parent from the child.
25:13What do you mean?
25:16If a child's a bad apple, it doesn't mean the parents, the tree, or whatever, they're raised.
25:24I don't follow.
25:27She's just saying parents can be different from their children.
25:31Her dad really thinks about what he says before he says it, for example.
25:36Sorry, am I making this weird?
25:39No.
25:40I just want you to explain what you meant.
25:42Look, this is pointless.
25:43Mum, wasn't that show on?
25:45We were going to watch them anyway.
25:47No, I don't think so.
25:50My son's had issues, and it's very easy to see the behaviour and not the illness.
25:56What's the illness?
25:58Anger.
25:59Blind rage.
26:04What, love?
26:06No, it's just, I didn't see much blind rage when he called me an ugly whore and spat in my
26:11face.
26:11If anything on a call, he was smiling.
26:16He's not well, Joanna.
26:18Yeah, a lot of people aren't well.
26:20They don't mangle people at two in the afternoon for no reason at all.
26:23Well, actually, there was a reason, Joanna.
26:25I'll be groped in.
26:28Are you serious?
26:29He did.
26:29He groped in.
26:31That's just utter bollocks.
26:33I'm sorry.
26:34It's the truth, Joanna.
26:35He acted in self-defence.
26:37Christ.
26:38If that's self-defence, maybe I should go back to the chippy that short-changed me and burn the place
26:41to the ground.
26:52Look, you weren't there, Joanna.
26:54I don't need to be.
26:55I know what your brother's capable of.
26:58Also, why have you never mentioned this before?
27:00It's a recent recollection.
27:07Hold on.
27:10You're not thinking about saying this in court, are you?
27:14Well, I...
27:14Oh, my God, Niall, you can't.
27:16You can get into so much trouble lying on the stand.
27:19It's not a lie, OK?
27:20There was a scuffle.
27:22Something happened and there was a grope, maybe, for sure.
27:24Please tell me this is some kind of wind-up.
27:26It's not, Joanna.
27:27So just stay out of this.
27:30You decided to not get involved in that song yet?
27:32That's because you said it would get in the way of our relationship.
27:35Would you look at that?
27:36It's getting in the way.
27:40I can't believe you.
27:54Sorry about that.
28:00I like it.
28:06I just don't get why you're doing it.
28:08All you do is moan about him.
28:10No, I don't.
28:11Yes, you do.
28:11You said you wished he'd move abroad the other day so that you could be free.
28:14I'd been drinking.
28:16Exactly.
28:17You've always said the truth comes out when you're drunk.
28:19I said that sober, though.
28:20So you really shouldn't trust it.
28:22Wait.
28:22Come back.
28:23Niall, don't storm away from me.
28:25Niall, are you listening?
28:28Niall, stop.
28:31Please.
28:33I need to know.
28:35Did that be really great, Ruben?
28:40Yes.
28:44No hesitating, were you, Bobby?
28:46No.
28:48No.
28:57No.
28:58No.
28:58No.
29:00Joanna?
29:01Ruben?
29:04Been meaning to say, actually.
29:06Thanks for doing me a solid and not giving a statement.
29:09I haven't done you a solid.
29:10I just didn't see it and I don't want to get involved.
29:12I'm Switzerland.
29:13I like Switzerland.
29:15I went there once.
29:19OK, that's enough pension to last the week.
29:22Shall we?
29:24Absolutely, Babers.
29:26Let's do it.
29:29Hold on a minute.
29:31Niall, wait.
29:36Aren't you going to say goodbye?
29:39Yeah.
29:41Bye.
29:42Bye.
29:43Bye.
29:43Bye.
29:45Bye.
30:10Is everything OK, Ruben?
30:12No, I'm pissed off.
30:14With you hesitating back at the house.
30:17Really?
30:19I was just caught out by the question.
30:22Yeah, well, if you crumble for that bimbo,
30:23how do you think you're going to fare with the jury staring in your face?
30:26She's not a bimbo, Ruben.
30:27Well, she's certainly not a barrister.
30:32You need to be strong, Niall.
30:34Fucking say it with conviction to anyone that asks.
30:37Christ.
30:38I didn't realise all this came with acting lessons as well.
30:40Of course it does.
30:41Just saying it isn't enough.
30:42You need certainty in your gut.
30:43And stealing your eyes.
30:45Look, I'm never going to be able to do that, am I?
30:47Why not?
30:47Because you're asking me to believe something that I know to be a lie.
30:51I mean, all the mind tracks in the world couldn't patch over that.
30:54But you fucked this!
30:57What are you doing, Ruben?
30:58Whoa, whoa, whoa, stop!
31:01Jesus, I think you just went over something.
31:11What are you doing?
31:12What are you doing?
31:13What are you doing?
31:13What are you doing?
31:14What are you doing?
31:14No, no!
31:15Oh, shit.
31:16Get the fuck up!
31:21What are you doing?
31:22We're practising.
31:24You're joking me, aren't you?
31:25We'll be late.
31:26Say it.
31:28Say he groped me.
31:29Oh, come on, Ruben.
31:30This is ridiculous.
31:31No, it's not.
31:32I want to see it in your eyes now.
31:34I want to see you believe it so a jury will.
31:36Here, stand.
31:38Stand!
31:40Fucking say it, then!
31:47He groped you.
31:51Again.
31:55He groped you.
31:57Wait, wait, wait, wait.
31:59What?
31:59You!
32:01He groped you.
32:02He groped you.
32:03Never have an affair now, whatever you do.
32:05Look, I'm trying here.
32:06Not hard enough.
32:08Come on, come on.
32:09You did all those gay plays at university, didn't you?
32:12This should be easy for you.
32:13What's that got to do with anything?
32:14Because if you can pretend to be the Prince of Denmark,
32:16you can pretend the little faggot touched my balls.
32:22I mean, I don't know about that, Ruben.
32:24I actually think this is harder to get my head around.
32:26Are you serious?
32:27The whole thing was in a foreign language now.
32:29At one stage, you were talking to a skull.
32:31The cunt's dead.
32:32What are you talking to him for?
32:34Well, technically, he was holding the skull and he was talking...
32:36I don't give a fuck!
32:39My point is, this should be easy for you.
32:42I'm your fucking brother!
32:43You knew this cunt for five minutes!
32:45Yeah, I get that, Ruben.
32:46I suppose I'm...
32:48I'm just finding it hard to wrap my head around certain parts of it.
32:55Which parts?
32:57I don't know.
32:58The whole logic of the argument, maybe?
33:03Explain.
33:04Well, if someone grabs your cock, I can see why you might punch them.
33:10But to put them in a coma for six months, it just doesn't make sense why it would affect you
33:14in such a massive way.
33:16You don't think it would have an effect on me?
33:18No.
33:20At least not to the extent where you'd almost kill him to stop him doing it again.
33:24Oh, come on, Ruben.
33:25I saw you get stabbed once and eat Cheerios the next morning like nothing happened.
33:28So, fuck.
33:29You superglued it shut and poured vodka on it whilst watching television.
33:32Means fuck all.
33:33Yes, it does.
33:34If almost getting murdered doesn't fill you with terror, then how am I supposed to believe a touch on the
33:38testicles will?
33:39Because it's fucking different!
33:43Someone stabs you, they attack the body.
33:46Someone gropes you, they attack your...
33:48Your...
33:49Your fucking soul!
33:52Who you are as a man, that's why it's different.
33:58Fucking sort it out now.
34:00Whatever you need to do, it'll be anything other than yourself up there.
34:02Yeah, do it!
34:02Because if you flap about like this, I'll be the one accusing you of groping my testicles next.
34:17Would you like me to try again?
34:18No, I don't want you to try again.
34:23Get back in the van.
34:24I'm going for a piss.
34:30Oh.
34:40I think we have a problem.
34:50Do we really need to carry all this shit?
34:52Yes, you twat.
34:54Can't have the wee bastards turn up with nothing to do.
34:58You're still annoyed at me, aren't you?
34:59Yes.
35:00This is all your fault.
35:02How?
35:03Hesitating like a bitch.
35:05Winding me up so I wasn't focused on the driving.
35:07Are you serious, Raymond?
35:08Is it my fault you drove over those planks of wood too?
35:11Of course it is.
35:12And it's your fault I'm facing ten years inside.
35:19Look, we can try again if you want.
35:20I don't want you to try.
35:22Niall, don't you get it?
35:25I want you by my side, ready to march into battle.
35:31You're not going to cry, are you?
35:33Fuck that.
35:33I cried once in my life.
35:34Don't plan on doing it again.
35:36What happened?
35:37I was eight years old.
35:39My dad had a heart attack.
35:41Jesus.
35:41That's as good a reason as any.
35:42No, it wasn't that bit.
35:44It was when he came back home.
35:46So I'm walking up the path towards the house.
35:57Fuck all this shit.
36:11I'm scared now.
36:14Proper scared.
36:20I'm pretty sure Maura's sick, you know.
36:25What gives you that impression?
36:28She's just been really nice to me recently.
36:33Look, I don't think that means anything.
36:35No.
36:36The other day, she called me to ask her what I was doing.
36:39That was it.
36:40Whole reason for the call.
36:44Better as cancer.
36:48Well, I wouldn't worry.
36:49Well, I do.
36:51And either way, ten years is a long time.
36:53I can't have a last memory of me
36:55through Perspex fucking glass.
36:58Plus, it's prison.
36:59I know the second I go in.
37:00I'm not coming back home.
37:09I think we should probably keep walking.
37:11The kids will be waiting.
37:15Yeah.
37:31Yeah, yeah, funny.
37:34Reuben, where did you go?
37:38It's okay, fella.
37:39I'm here now.
37:40I'm here now.
37:41I'm here now.
37:41Yeah, I'm here now.
37:44I'm here now.
37:45I'm here now.
38:01I'm here now.
38:03Reuben.
38:06What?
38:14He groped you.
38:28Again.
38:32He groped you.
38:51Jesus Christ, Johanna.
38:55I thought you went back to Glasgow.
38:57I did.
38:59I went to see Albie.
39:03I haven't seen him since freshers.
39:05And he looks awful now.
39:08Like really awful.
39:16What did he say?
39:20He told me everything.
39:25You know, I've always seen the pain that you were in.
39:28And I could never understand why someone with your gifts, your looks, your brains could be so unhappy.
39:38And now, I suppose I know.
39:47You won't tell anyone, will you?
39:50No.
39:52But I think it might be good for you if you did.
39:56That's not gonna happen.
40:06Is he gonna bring it up in court?
40:09No.
40:11But only because it wouldn't work in his favour.
40:14Something to do with juries having more problems with homosexuals than criminals.
40:18Which makes me ill, if I'm honest.
40:30Hey.
40:31Hey.
40:31Come here.
40:32It's okay.
40:34No.
40:34It's not.
40:35It's not okay.
40:36It is.
40:36Look at me.
40:37Look at me.
40:40It's okay.
40:44What you are, it's okay.
40:48What you're doing to Albie, it's not.
40:52I mean, don't you hate yourself enough, as it is already?
40:55Without spewing this hateful crap to a room full of people.
40:58I know, I know.
40:59But Maura's sick, Joanna.
41:00Like really sick.
41:01Well that's awful.
41:02And I'm sorry.
41:03But it still doesn't justify lying in this way.
41:06I know, but Ruben's really turned his life around.
41:08That's crap.
41:10Snakes can shed their skin now, but they'll always crawl on their bellies.
41:24Are we...
41:25Finished?
41:28Yes.
41:31But that's not important.
41:34What's important is what you're going to say up there.
41:36Laura, think about it.
41:40You have a chance here to draw a line under all of this and start again in Oxford.
41:45Why not do that with a clear conscience?
41:47What?
41:47I don't know if I'm going yet.
41:57Yes, you do.
42:00Your mum opened it earlier.
42:05You've got your freedom, Niall.
42:07Now all I ask is that you don't deprive Albie of his.
42:21Oh.
42:28Oh.
42:29Oh, oh.
42:32Oh.
42:34Oh.
42:35Oh.
42:36Oh.
42:37Oh, oh.
42:40Left gloomy alone
42:49All her lovely companions
42:59Of the hidden and more
43:06No flowers
43:15No flowers
43:18No flowers
43:20No flowers
43:28To reflect back
43:32I can be ashamed
43:36No gifts
43:41No gifts
43:43No gifts
43:52No gifts
43:55No gifts
43:57Say it
43:58Please I need to hear it
44:01Who am I?
44:08My brother
44:08My brother's from when I'm in love
44:31Falling to the stand
44:33Nile Kennedy
44:35So soon may I follow
44:41When friendships decay
44:49And from love's shining circle
44:56The gems drop away
45:04When true hearts die withered
45:12And found ones of home
45:31Who
45:32Who
45:33And inhabit
45:38This way
45:40Who
45:44Please raise your hand
45:45And repeat this oath
45:47I swear by almighty God
45:49That the evidence I will give
45:50Will be the truth
45:51The whole truth
45:53And nothing but the truth
46:07Very well
46:10Very well
46:10The prosecution may now proceed
46:17What is your full name?
46:21I'm sorry
46:23Your full name?
46:28Niall Blandon Kennedy
46:30You've been called as a witness
46:32To speak to the events of the 10th of September 1989
46:36Where it is accepted that Albert Safadi sustained serious injury
46:41You were present when it happened
46:48Yes, I was, yes
46:50And you also claim in your latest statement to have seen Albert Safadi sexually assault Mr. Pallister prior to the
46:58attack
46:59Is that correct?
47:24Yes, that's correct
47:25Yes, that's correct
47:27Can't believe it
47:30That's a lie
47:31There's a plate of mine
47:33That's enough
47:35Could I remind those present that this is a court
47:39Now, when you gave a statement at the time of the incident you did not disclose this alleged assault to
47:45the police
47:45Can you explain why?
47:53I was knocked out and unable to, you know, comprehend what I had seen
48:01But you did in this very statement detail other information at the time relevant to the attack
48:06Can you have before you production B?
48:22Can you please read out the highlighted section?
48:33I tried to pull him away
48:34I tried to pull him away but I couldn't
48:37He was in that place now and nothing would stop him
48:41I think I tried three or four times before he pushed me away
48:45That's where I tumbled back and hit my head
48:48So just to clarify for the court, you remember pulling him away three or four times
48:53But you do not remember something as significant as a sexual assault prior to this?
49:03It appears so, yes
49:09No further questions
49:17Counsel for the defence, you may now proceed
49:22Let's start from the beginning
49:24You met Albert Safadi that week on the 7th of September 1989, is that correct?
49:31Yes, sir
49:32And did you notice anything unusual about his private life?
49:50I...
49:51He was...
49:52I suppose he was a...
49:55Well, he was a...
49:58A homosexual
50:00How did you find this out?
50:04He...
50:05He...
50:06He disclosed it to me
50:08In what way did he disclose his sexuality to you?
50:12Well, he...
50:12He told me
50:14So he was very forthcoming with this information?
50:19You...
50:21You could say that, yes?
50:23Did you ever feel threatened by how forward Mr Safadi appeared to be with his sexuality?
50:29Ah...
50:30I'm not sure what you mean
50:32It appears Mr Safadi went out of his way to make his sexuality known to you
50:37Did...
50:38You find this threatening?
50:40Oh, no, not really
50:44I mean, yes, yes, maybe
50:45I don't know
50:46Sorry, can you rephrase the question, please?
50:49Would you say he was a sexual deviant, Mr Kennedy?
51:05I can't...
51:09I can't...
51:10I can't do this
51:11I've...
51:12I've made a mistake
51:14What mistake, Mr Kennedy?
51:19Mr Kennedy
51:23He didn't grope Ruben
51:24He didn't even touch him at all
51:28You cunt!
51:30I'll fucking kill you!
51:32Ruben, Ruben, Ruben, stop!
51:35You fucking rat!
51:37You've done it now!
51:39I'm gonna get you!
51:40Do you hear me?
51:41We won't come back from this!
51:42I'll make you fucking ugly, do you understand?
51:44I'll make you fucking ugly!
51:47What?
51:55Do you wanna be ugly?
51:57They're pretty.
52:02Yes, yes, yes!
52:06Pull me out!
52:09What?
52:09You gotta feel...
52:09I'm gonna be ugly, you gotta feel this way!
52:09No, no, no...
52:10He's gonna be ugly, you gotta be ugly.
52:11I'm gonna be ugly!
52:11No, no, no, no...
52:11I can't...
52:12Nog, no...
52:44Well, praying ain't gonna save you now.
52:48Devil's already arrived.
52:49Yeah, we should probably start drinking.
52:52Yeah, if there's anything left for the rest of us.
53:02What is Reuben doing here?
53:04I don't know, but...
53:07I'm terrified.
53:09Don't worry. This is your big day.
53:12I won't let him get in the way of it.
53:13I can promise you that.
53:14Move.
53:15Yeah.
53:16Fuck's sake.
53:31All right.
53:43Shall we begin?
53:53Hello.
53:54For those that don't know me, I'm Reuben Pallister.
54:01And I'm gonna tell you about now, Kennedy.
54:03Well, I'll see.
54:33Huh.
