00:14Hiya.
00:16I'd say you got a shock the other night.
00:19Couldn't have been easy seeing a mother like that.
00:22How are you holding up?
00:24OK.
00:26It's better to find out.
00:28One way or another.
00:31I can't believe she's been lying in the morgue all these years.
00:36No one to claim.
00:38It's not your fault. Trigger told you she was dead.
00:42Look at my ma die alone.
00:46No family around her.
00:50No one to hold her hand.
00:52You can't take this guilt on yourself.
00:55It'll end up eating you alive.
00:57JJ's right.
00:59I know it's hard to see this now.
01:01But your mother's at peace.
01:03She had a very tough life, Carol.
01:06She deserves a rest.
01:09She does.
01:10I'll just be a minute.
01:14Have you found something?
01:16Hmm.
01:17Look at this.
01:20The smooth newt.
01:23They're on the protected species list.
01:26I spotted a dozen of them right where they knocked the shed.
01:29You just came across them?
01:31No.
01:31I went back to one of the family he told me they were there.
01:34Said you had a lucky escape losing out on that sale.
01:37If he'd mentioned that to me, I would never have gone near that site.
01:40Hmm.
01:41Neither would Con Rafferty.
01:43This will definitely hold up his plans.
01:46Could put a stop to them all together.
01:49So, I'm tracking Ray's present.
01:51Now it's on the move.
01:53She'll be here by tomorrow morning.
01:55Just in time for his retirement party.
01:59Lads, we need a bad gift.
02:01Ray thought he was getting a transatlantic cruise.
02:04He saw our brochure lying around.
02:06Yeah, dream on, Ray.
02:07That shows where these expectations are at then.
02:10Look, it's tradition to give a clock.
02:12Yeah, but isn't it a bit stingy?
02:13He's given over 20 years of his life to the place.
02:15The clock we bought him wasn't cheap.
02:18I still think we can do better.
02:20This isn't any old clock.
02:22This is a beautiful timepiece.
02:25Will you see it?
02:26And it could be a nice memento of his years in the garage.
02:30Maybe you're overthinking it.
02:31I'm sure he'll be delighted with his present.
02:38Tommy.
02:40I can't still be in the dark house.
02:43You destroyed our chance for a permanent home for the men's shed.
02:47Then you lied to my face about it.
02:50I also offered to find another location for it.
02:53Yeah, because of your guilty conscience.
02:55I had to secure that sight, Tommy.
02:57It's just business.
02:58He played dirty.
03:00And I hope it was worth it.
03:07I see Emma's trying to reel you back in.
03:10She doesn't give up easily.
03:12She might, soon enough.
03:15That precious development of hers.
03:18I reckon it's about to go belly up.
03:20And I cannot wait to tell her.
03:26Hey.
03:27Hey.
03:28Are Tags getting a great response?
03:30Yeah, I saw that.
03:32We should probably take it down, though.
03:34The cop on Tag was a dig at your ex's mother.
03:37If I'd known that, I wouldn't have gotten involved.
03:39OK.
03:40I take your point.
03:41Look, I have nothing against Babs.
03:43And you should have been honest with me.
03:45You're right.
03:46I'm sorry.
03:47It's just, I have a lot going on at the minute.
03:51There's still something up with your Nan.
03:53She's keeping me in the dark.
03:54Which means, whatever's happening, it's not...
03:57It's not good.
04:02Right.
04:04I need a signature of this.
04:06Sure.
04:07We're meeting the family in Max Rini's office to sign the contracts.
04:12Things are going to be fast.
04:14I want this deal done and dusted.
04:17Well, Tommy.
04:19What does he want?
04:21To meet us both.
04:23Why?
04:24I bet he's changed his mind about my offer.
04:28An alternative venue for the men's sheds.
04:30Not the marketplace.
04:32There's room on the top floor.
04:34James will find new tenants.
04:36That's his job.
04:37Con, I am still fighting with Tommy over this deal.
04:41I want to get back into his good books.
04:44I'm having the contracts drawn up.
04:46The unit's his.
04:52Hey, love.
04:54Did you manage to get any sleep?
04:56Stop fussing them grand.
04:59They're clearly not.
05:02Just a bit of a shock, that's all.
05:04Of course it was.
05:06She was your mother.
05:07How could she end up like that, Nora?
05:10Dead for years.
05:12And no one even noticed.
05:14No one person missed her.
05:16You did.
05:17You went looking for her.
05:19Too little, too late.
05:21Don't be beating yourself up over this.
05:24It's Trigger's fault telling you she was dead years ago.
05:27Why didn't I go looking for her before that?
05:29When I was younger?
05:31And why did I take Trigger's word for it?
05:34Don't do this to yourself.
05:37I should have been there for her, Nora.
05:38There was probably nothing you could have done for the poor woman.
05:42I could have given her a roof over her head and got her medical care.
05:45She was an addict, Carol.
05:47There's nothing you could have done to prevent her death.
05:50The old necklace.
05:51The one we gave her.
05:53The matching earrings that I held onto all this time.
05:57She pawned everything over the years.
05:59But never that ugly thing.
06:02Not that it was worth much.
06:03It was worth a lot to her.
06:05Just like you kept the earrings.
06:08They're Denise's now.
06:18I'm trying to get a hold of you.
06:20Sorry, work is being mental.
06:22How did you get on?
06:27They showed me her personal belongings.
06:30And a photograph of a tattoo.
06:34It was a pink anchor.
06:36Very same as she had.
06:39And the matching owl necklace.
06:45They took a DNA sample, but that probably won't be confirmed for a couple of weeks.
06:50It's definitely mad.
06:52You're looking to be so blasé about this.
06:54I'm not.
06:54But I was expecting it.
06:56Her mother's dead and you're going on like it's no biggie.
06:59Everyone deals with things in their own way.
07:02At least her struggles are over.
07:04She's gone to a better place.
07:07Lifeless in a morgue.
07:08That's a better place, is it?
07:12She'd still be here if you bothered to go looking for her.
07:16Don't you put this on me.
07:17If I thought there was any chance that she was still alive, I'd have been out there.
07:22Scouring the streets for her.
07:23But you?
07:25You knew.
07:26And you did nothing to help her.
07:29There's the list of cars that's going to be coming in for service.
07:33I don't believe it.
07:34A 1977 Ferrari 308?
07:38Yeah, having me on.
07:40Don't get too excited now, you're finishing up tomorrow.
07:42Heh.
07:44About nearly a hundred grand, those cars.
07:46You're so treated with extreme care, all right?
07:48That's okay. You know, I'll talk around someday and give you a hand of it.
07:52No, no, no. You can't be haunting the place once you're gone.
07:55Well, I'm joined owner in this carriage.
07:57And you'll be invited to AGM, but you need to cut the cord ray.
08:01For your own sake.
08:03And for ours.
08:07Oh, please don't leave like this.
08:09I'm not taking the blame for Ma's death.
08:12You're the one who ran away.
08:13Let's calm down. Emotions are running high for both of you.
08:16Not for that cold-blooded creature.
08:18When's the last time you went properly looking for her?
08:20Years ago.
08:21Even after she made it clear she didn't want to be found.
08:24Then you just gave up on her?
08:26You'd think you'd have done any better with Ma.
08:28I know I would.
08:29Let's hear it then. What would you have done?
08:30I'd have given her a roof over her head.
08:32I'd have got her medical attention.
08:33I'd have got her into rehab.
08:34You can't force someone to go.
08:36I'd have convinced her.
08:37She'd have done it for me.
08:39Don't kid yourself.
08:40There was one thing she loved more than us.
08:42Her drugs.
08:44She made her choice.
08:46She chose heroin.
08:47So I'm not one bit surprised how things ended up.
08:50You don't seem to give a damn either.
08:52I lost my mother a long time ago.
08:56I've already grieved her.
09:02Does anyone care that our mother is dead?
09:07Anyone?
09:10Where are you going?
09:12To go and see the one person that actually might care that she's gone?
09:17Come on.
09:24It's a done deal.
09:25So it's ours?
09:27Yep.
09:27Contracts outside.
09:28So, this is course to celebrate.
09:31Lunch is on me.
09:33Hiya.
09:34A celebration.
09:36What's the good news?
09:37Have you reconsidered our offer?
09:39A new home for the men's shed?
09:40That's not what we're here to talk about.
09:42I thought that's why you wanted to meet.
09:44No, no.
09:45But I take it you've clinched the site sale.
09:47We sure did.
09:49You put up a good fight, but...
09:51I guess the best man won.
09:53It's not over.
09:55A few rounds to go yet.
09:56Ha ha.
10:02What's this?
10:04A smooth newt.
10:06It's a protected species.
10:08And they're all over the site.
10:15Is this some kind of joke?
10:18I'm afraid no.
10:19So I've contacted the National Parks and Wildlife Service.
10:23What does this even mean?
10:24That you won't be building on it.
10:27The site you just bought?
10:30It's worth nothing.
10:44Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
10:46But we're not going to let a few newts stop us.
10:49You won't have a choice.
10:50And I've contacted environmental and conservation groups.
10:54You'll be hearing from them.
10:56Now who's playing dirty?
10:57This isn't the gotcha you think it is.
10:59Face it.
11:00The sod won't be turned on that site for years.
11:03If ever.
11:05A protected species suddenly showing up.
11:08This reeks.
11:09See the funny thing is,
11:10the newts were in the exposed ground where the clubhouse stood.
11:13It was full of ground water.
11:15If you hadn't torn it down,
11:17you might never have found them.
11:20Why did you do this?
11:22I'm all about the newts.
11:27Find a way around it.
11:30I feel Clare in.
11:35What are you doing?
11:36Coming after us like this?
11:38You betrayed me, remember?
11:39All this aggrover.
11:41A dingy little shack.
11:42A permanent home for the men's shit.
11:46It meant a great deal.
11:48Not just to me,
11:49but to the whole community.
11:50And to the killers.
11:52I never knew you had such a fight in you.
11:54You never crossed me before.
11:57Meet me later.
11:59I want to make it up to you.
12:00Please, let me try.
12:10So?
12:11She hasn't taken it too well.
12:13That's to be expected.
12:15Where is she now?
12:16Is she going to have to meet someone?
12:18I'll give her a call.
12:22How you know her?
12:23Yeah.
12:24Did you happen to see the graffiti in the lift in the community centre?
12:29No.
12:30It's a dig at me.
12:32Lorcan's handiwork.
12:34So will you tell Bouncy to scrub it off?
12:36I will.
12:38Lazy little git probably thinks somebody else is going to clean up after him.
12:42And make sure he sorts it.
12:44And I'm still waiting on my apology from him.
12:47Oh, you might be pushing it there.
12:49Lorcan has a very stubborn streak.
12:51Runs in the family.
12:52Yeah, well kicking up a stink runs in mine.
12:55I'll see what I can do.
12:57Oh, come on.
13:03Hello, Ray.
13:04Here.
13:05Oh, you shouldn't have.
13:07Oh, that's from Louise Jennings.
13:09My favourite regular.
13:11Oh, better not tell Nora.
13:14Nah, my dad's parting gift.
13:16This better be good.
13:17Nah, it's from a customer.
13:19She says, wait for this.
13:21Tell MacIver he's the best mechanic I ever met.
13:25Hey.
13:26She calls you MacIver?
13:28Yeah, well, because I can fix anything.
13:31Apparently.
13:36Oh.
13:38I can't understand why anybody would give a clock to someone, you know, returning.
13:42I think it's a lovely present.
13:44We're slaves to time all our working lives.
13:48But when we retire, we're free.
13:50Free at last.
13:51So no need to watch the clock anymore.
13:54True.
13:55I'll stick it in the office.
13:56I have a clock already in there.
13:59Oh.
14:01I'll drop it into the helping hand.
14:03I'll say nothing to Louise Jennings.
14:06All right.
14:09Mondo, we need your help.
14:11Origently.
14:12I just came in here to see if my dad wants to go for a pint after work.
14:14It's his retirement present.
14:16What about it?
14:16It's the clock.
14:24Nurse, there's a baby crying in the next ward.
14:28Rose?
14:30It's me.
14:33Magella's daughter.
14:34Laura.
14:36I'm afraid...
14:38Magella's passed away.
14:40Oh.
14:42I thought you'd like to know.
14:45You're the only one that...
14:47really knew apart from me and my sister.
14:50Magella?
14:51Yeah.
14:52Your friend.
14:53Magella from the Flats.
14:55Oh yeah, the Flats.
14:58Magella was a good neighbour.
14:59Yeah.
15:01Unfortunately, she passed a while back.
15:06She was never meant to get old.
15:08Oh, poor Magella.
15:12Who are you?
15:14I'm Carol.
15:16Her daughter.
15:19Oh yeah.
15:21Young Carol Foley.
15:23Oh.
15:23I'm sorry for your lost pet.
15:29She used to call to our flat every single day,
15:32looking to take Aoife out.
15:35Aoife?
15:36My baby sister.
15:38Magella wasn't much older than her,
15:40but she loved minding Aoife.
15:42She looked after all the smallies.
15:43She adored them.
15:45I never knew that.
15:47All she ever wanted was to be a mother.
15:51And then, when she had her first,
15:54pushing that big red pram down Thomas Street.
15:58Doting on our little girl.
16:00It's proud as punch.
16:03I need to come up with some ideas for this gift.
16:06I don't understand what he has against clocks.
16:09Well, he's a dab handed to DIY.
16:13Maybe...
16:14some toolkit that he's missing?
16:18How are you, Dad?
16:19I was just telling Hughie how much
16:21you love your new nickname, MacGyver.
16:24Well, that was well-earned.
16:26They were able to mend anything.
16:27You resurrected my dishwasher from the dead.
16:30And my toaster.
16:30This is why you're such an asset to the men's shed.
16:33You know, I can do a bit more than that now.
16:36I think they teach more classes.
16:38It's better to repair appliances,
16:40instead of throwing them away.
16:41Oh, yeah. Good for the environment.
16:43You can make videos.
16:45Reach a wider audience.
16:46I think people will take to you.
16:48That driving instructing video did you remember?
16:50That went down well.
16:51And a grumpy old repairman.
16:53What's not to love?
16:54I'd give you a follow.
16:55Me too.
16:57It'll never happen.
16:58I'd rather take up golf.
17:00Don't shoot it down just yet.
17:02I think it's a good idea.
17:10Here.
17:17Why are you cleaning?
17:19Oh, just helping Carol out.
17:22Why can't she do it herself?
17:24She's busy, that's all.
17:25And you need to do some cleaning up yourself.
17:28Your graffiti is still in the lift.
17:30Babs was giving me grief earlier.
17:32She loves having something to complain about.
17:34Get rid of it and apologise to her.
17:36It's not my problem if she can't take a joke.
17:39Just say you're sorry or she'll take it up with Carol.
17:42Who cares if she tells Carol?
17:43The last thing Carol needs is Babs on her case.
17:47But you still won't tell me why you're so worried about Carol.
17:50So what is it?
17:51Just tell me.
17:52Fix the graffiti, will you?
17:54Fine.
17:55I know you're hiding something.
18:04Have you been crying?
18:07Yeah.
18:08But I'll be fine.
18:10What's going on?
18:12Let's give Carol some space.
18:14We can talk about it later.
18:15No, it's time.
18:16It's time we tell him.
18:17Tell me what?
18:19My sister Denise showed up.
18:24But I thought she was dead.
18:25So did I.
18:28Trigger lied.
18:30She's alive very much so.
18:33What's she like?
18:34Can I meet her?
18:36I don't know.
18:36It's complicated.
18:38You don't get along?
18:41I barely know her and we barely know each other.
18:44But she had some news about her mother.
18:48She thought that she might be alive too.
18:52No way.
18:54She isn't.
18:56I went looking for her.
18:58I found her.
19:01She's been dead for years.
19:04I'm sorry.
19:08Don't be kind.
19:11Set me off again.
19:13You should cry.
19:15To your mum.
19:18What happened to her?
19:20Time enough for that.
19:23No.
19:25You need to know the truth.
19:30My ma was a heroin addict.
19:34She overdosed.
19:38They took her body to the morgue.
19:42But they couldn't identify her.
19:44No one came to claim her.
19:48Until today.
19:50That's so sad.
19:51Yes, it is.
19:53Why didn't you tell me?
19:55Because I was trying to protect you.
19:58From what?
19:59Knowing what kind of a family you came from.
20:04You've given me everything.
20:06A great home.
20:08A shot at our college.
20:10Love and support I don't even deserve.
20:13You're the best family anyone could hope for.
20:21You need to start looking after yourself.
20:23I mean this whole I'm too tired excuse won't cut it anymore.
20:27I do look hard to myself.
20:29So what have we missed?
20:31Armando roasting his old man.
20:33Better remember where his inheritance will come from.
20:36And you seem to forget who's going to be choosing your nursing home.
20:41Here, sit down and get to drink.
20:43I better give the old pensioner a hand.
20:44Yeah.
20:50Right.
20:51I think I've had an idea.
20:53About my dad's prezzy.
20:54A nice one.
20:55I've been stressing all day over what the girl.
20:57Yeah, now I just need to sort out a few things.
20:59But I reckon it's a goer.
21:01Well I'm more than happy to leave it in your capable hats.
21:03Me too.
21:04No one knows Ray as well as you do.
21:07Great.
21:07I'll go ahead and look into it then.
21:09It just gives an idea of what you're looking to spend.
21:13How's your grandson?
21:15Yeah.
21:17Yeah.
21:17I can work with that.
21:23I can't believe you're sleeping with the enemy.
21:26You're just bullying because Tommy stood up to you.
21:28He stitched us up.
21:30It's going to cost us.
21:31He was being assertive.
21:33Standing against ground.
21:35It shows strength.
21:38Well here's the other cretin now.
21:41I can't wait to wipe the smirk off his face.
21:46Well that development is going ahead.
21:48No matter how long it takes.
21:51You need to take some time off work.
21:53What for?
21:54To grieve.
21:56I did me grieving ten years ago when Trigger lied about her being dead.
22:02I don't feel like I have any right to grieve.
22:05I wasn't there for her.
22:07You only get one mother.
22:10That loss is going to hit you whether you like it or not.
22:14Anything you need.
22:15I'm right here.
22:18Right.
22:21Excuse me.
22:25I knew you'd come.
22:27I have something for you.
22:29Oh yeah?
22:31The lease agreement for the marketplace.
22:34Men's shed will have a new home.
22:35For a few months anyway.
22:38Where do I sign?
22:42Um...
22:42So?
22:43Am I forgiven?
22:46It would take a lot more than this.
22:49I have a few ideas for how I can make it up to you.
22:52I don't mix business and personal life, isn't that what you said?
22:58Cleared your stuff out of my place.
23:01Tommy, please don't do this.
23:03You betrayed my trust.
23:06There's no going back from that.
23:07We're done.
23:08No.
23:09We care about each other.
23:10Oh stop.
23:11Please.
23:12Stop.
23:12I'm not giving up on us.
23:14We can work this out.
23:15I know we can.
23:15For once.
23:16For once in your life, will you listen?
23:18I don't want you.
23:19I don't feel anything for you.
23:22It's over.
23:33She was your friend.
23:34It can't have been easy for you.
23:35I'm just sorry she did run on you.
23:37One thing I've learned.
23:38Never trust a Rafferty.
23:39Is there somewhere we could go?
23:42To pay our respects to her?
23:44How?
23:45I know what it is.
23:48TT racing in the oil of man.
23:50He's big into the motorbike racing.
23:52All will be revealed soon enough.
23:54I know something we could do that would get right under her skin.
23:57You're a bad influence.
24:03I know a lot.
24:07I know a lot of things.
24:08I know a lot.
24:11Maybe I have a littleceptic gun there.
24:11It's, I know a little bit raining.
24:11You see, I both Chris and Chris decided to stop right now.
24:13I know a lot of things.
24:13It's the time to stop.
24:14You're all right.
24:14We've got a lot of things.
24:14It's tough at all.
