01x02 - Episode 2

[bunniefuu]

RYAN: It's pretty clear
you don't like me, Ed.

But I've fallen
for your daughter.

And I think it's important
that we get along.

Saltwater in the diesel.
What, in the tank?

ED: I followed you
last night, Ryan.

Station Road, it's a
red-light district.

I don't know what you
think you heard, Ed.

But all I was trying to do
was help someone in need.

You've completely
humiliated her!

Josh...!

Did you get my message?

They can do the refit
this afternoon for cash.

Oh, that's good.

I, er...

I heard about what
happened at the restaurant.

What have you done
to your hands?

Christ...!

The anti-fishing
lot, you reckon?

No.

This was left here
as well last night.

That's you in the Navy. Mm.

Why would someone
leave you this?

Mum!

I don't want porridge!
You asked for porridge!

I asked you for cornflakes!

Why are we staying in this hotel,
anyway? It's an awful hotel.

Mum, it's OK. Oh, dear...

There you are.

Has Dad come back
yet? Not yet.

He's a coward!

Anything from Ryan?

I tried him at the
hotel, at work. Nothing.

I really don't know
where else he could be.

Cerrig Point.

His dad's favourite place.

Is that what he said?

You are brilliant.

Oh...!

So are you.

Mwah! Thank you.

Do you want cornflakes?
I want cornflakes.

OK. And I want black
pudding, please.

On top of your cornflakes?
On top of the cornflakes.

SHE LAUGHS

Yes, Mum.

BOB: What kind of things did you
get up to in Gibraltar, then?

Stupid, drunken, crazy stuff.

Here, give me that.

And you think one
of them did this?

Well, I can't think
it was the Pendricks.

Well, I presume you didn't
actually k*ll anyone.

Besides, with saltwater in
the engine, and now this,

I don't reckon this is
about you and your mates

pissing up Gibraltar
on a Friday night.

Well, what, then?

Who do you blame for
what happened to Josh?

You, you blame yourself.

Someone's pushing your buttons.

George.

I saw him in the
pub security camera

walking down to the boat
with a bucket in his hand.

You can't do what my dad does.

Just disappear. If we
have a future together...

You made it clear
what you think of me.

You lied to me, Ryan!

You said we couldn't meet
because you had to work late.

I told you what happened.
Yeah, after the event.

I should have told you.

I'm sorry.

And I should have trusted you.

Your dad...

..no matter what
he says or does...

..he's never going to
stop me loving you.

It's because of Josh.

It's like he's got
PTSD or something.

I've seen it first-hand.

Normal men, paranoid, obsessive.

Dangerous, even.

ED: You were seen

on a security camera
walking towards our boat.

Why would I wreck your boat?

Cos of what happened
with you and Abbie.

I'm just trying to look out
for her. I never asked you to!

For all the bloody
good it's caused!

All right, blame George.

Look, I followed Ryan all the way
into town down to Station Road.

What, he picked up a hooker?

This is the woman he
served with in Afghanistan.

She saved his life.

Now, I know you want to get
back together with Abbie,

but it's just not going to
happen. Ed, listen to me.

He said he's got a
first-class honours degree.

I don't think he even
went to university.

Bob...

..where's Ed?

You just missed him. I offered
to give him a lift, but...

Was he here all night?

It looks like it.

Did he say anything about Ryan?

Well, you know what he's like.

No-one's good enough for Abbie.
She was so upset with him.

He's going to lose her.

I'll make us a cup of tea, hey?

I've got Mum in the car.

See you later. Yeah.

See you later.

CAR DOORS THUMP SHUT

DOOR OPENS

So after everything that
happened... Oh, my phone just...

Why didn't you come home? Here
you are, you dirty so-and-so.

No, I slept out on the
boat. Mum, please...

Excuse me, it's my
house. Please, Mum...

It's my house. Not now!

You followed Ryan.

You phoned him. You got
your daughter to believe...

I was trying to protect her.

Ed, you did the same
thing with George.

Oh, that was different.

Why are you trying to
control our daughter?

It's not just weird, it's
potentially damaging.

You have to stop. I know!

I will.

I have. I have.

Have you spoken to her?

No, I tried to phone her, but...

She went to Cerrig
Point to find Ryan.

They're on their way over.

What are you going to say?

I'm going to tell
them I'm sorry.

MAN: CJ Pasarrello,
building and gardening.

Leave a message.

This is Ed. Erm...

It's Ed Collier.

I think we knew each
other back in the day.

Er, sorry if this isn't you.

But if it is, could you
give me a call, please?

Ed!

Well, it's not going
to read itself.

What?

They're taking you to court?!
Only if I don't pay the fine.

4,600 for quota violations?

How are we going to pay that?

First the net.

Then the engine. And now this!

Someone must've
been spying on me.

Tracking me.

Who the hell is doing this?

FRONT DOOR OPENS They're here.

PHYLLIS: You found him,
then. RYAN: Thanks to you.

We'll talk about it later.

I owe you both an apology.

I got it wrong.

I think we both got
each other wrong.

I just need you to know that I would
never do anything to hurt Abbie.

CLAIRE: That's very
generous of you, Ryan.

He doesn't deserve it, mind.

Well, we all deserve
a second chance.

He's well past
his second chance.

CLAIRE: What can I
get you? Tea, coffee?

Let me help. Thank you.

How did you find out all that
stuff about him in the first place?

George said that he could help.

How can you believe
George and not Ryan?

Look, I made a
mistake. But it...

It wasn't just what
George told me.

Didn't you hear
what Ryan just said?

You got him wrong, Dad.

What are you doing?
Your drawings.

Don't you want to take them?

You don't want them?

Of course I want them.

I'm just trying to help.

If you'd let me.

What?

Oh, it's nothing.

Say it, Dad. What else
did George find out?

Just...

..something about Ryan
not going to university.

Look, it doesn't matter,
just... RYAN: Abbie...?

Your mum's got
something to show you.

She'll be OK.

ABBIE: It's a lot of money.

This doesn't excuse
what he's done.

But what with the
Pendricks and everything...

What are you going to do?

I don't know.

RYAN: Can I help?

No.

Erm, thank you.

Hey...

We can get through this.

It's not someone local, is it?

Why not? I don't know.

Did we really go over the quota?

Well, that's what it says.
There's so few fish out there.

If the sea gets any warmer,
they'll be ready-fried!

They must have worked out that
we were bringing in extra fish

to sell to the restaurants. The
MMO will need real evidence,

not just hearsay.

Abbie was working on the
boat during that time.

Maybe she said
something to George.

Well, he denies he
was on the boat.

He's not going to
admit it, is he?

PHONE RINGS

It's Craig Pasarrello.

What are you calling me for?

Craig, someone left a photo
of the four of us on my boat.

Arthur's wife called
me. And now you.

We said no contact.

What did she want?
I don't know.

Something about him
going walkabout.

I didn't call her back.
She'll be calling you.

Craig...

..someone painted the word
"k*ller" on the deck of my boat.

No.

f*cking.

Contact. Yeah, but...

HE SIGHS

Ryan's happy with all this
stuff coming his way, is he?

Yes.

That's Josh's knife.

Josh loved this so much.

He begged us for weeks.

Hm.

He was so happy when
he opened it up.

Mum wasn't. Nearly
cut his fingers off.

If you need money to pay off
the fine, I can take out a loan.

Oh, no, no, thank you.
We're going to fight it.

Go to court, you mean?
It won't come to that.

Did you say anything
to George? About what?

About us going
over the quota. No.

Do you think George
dobbed you in?

Well, he blames me
for you dumping him.

I was going to finish
it anyway. Well...

..he's clearly not over it.

ED: Oh, hello, is
that Sue Grady?

Yeah, it's Ed Collier.

I served with Arthur. Erm...

I hear he's gone missing.

Yeah, I just wondered if
there's anything I can do or...

Yeah, OK. OK, yeah.

Listen, good luck. Good
luck. Let's keep in touch.

Yeah. Bye.

Are you all right?

Yeah, it's just, er, the wife of
one of my mates from the Navy.

Yeah?

I thought you didn't keep
in touch with that lot.

Apparently, he
received a photo, too.

Does he know who sent it?

You see, Craig here, he
told me that this guy,

Arthur, always a
bit of a loaner,

he went to see Des,
the joker in the pack,

and now sadly dying of cancer.

Anyway, Arthur went
to see him and...

..he never came home.

What do you mean?

It seems he's been
missing for three weeks.

Listen, mate, this is
going to do your head in.

You need to find out who's
doing this, and sharp.

See anyone you fancy?

Come on, I'm not
like that, Abbie.

I was just talking to
that girl, you know.

The girl in the bikini
my dad saw you kissing.

Your dad got it wrong. He just said
that so you'd break-up with me.

Why did you tell him Ryan
didn't go to university?

Do you not think it's a bit mad?

If he's lying about this,
then... He's not lying.

I'm only looking
out for you, Abbie.

I don't need you to do that.

It's over between us.

We had our time together,
but I've moved on.

I think it's time
you did the same, OK?

Mr Collier!

Pauline Davies.

You're early.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

I prefer meeting out here.

I understand you want me to
locate some men you served with.

Er, yes, sorry.

Do you understand how
much that might cost you?

I think you said it's
about £50 an hour.

Plus expenses.

I will require £500
as a down payment.

Well, there's only three men I need
you to look into. One of them's...

Mr Collier, I take my
job very seriously.

Investigations like this
can run into thousands.

This sounds expensive.
I don't know, er...

PHONE RINGS Well, when
you do know, call me.

Pauline Davies.
How can I help you?

HE SIGHS HEAVILY

Oh...

BOAT ENGINE SPLUTTERS

ENGINE SPLUTTERS

ENGINE FIRES UP

Yes! We're back in business!

BOB LAUGHS

We're going to need to pay off our
debts. Where will we get a loan?

Yeah, well...

..we should make
George pay for it.

The little sh*t. We should pay
his stupid camper van a visit.

What's that?

It's Des. You know, the
one who's got cancer.

He...

..died last night.

I was planning to go
and see him, but...

Is he the one who's
missing? No. Er...

Really, you're offering
me your old knickers?

I'm taking them to be recycled.

You went to Glasto
in this. Mm, I know.

Smell it. THEY SNIFF

It still stinks of weed.

This is more like it.

"Tuesday 4th." No!

"Mark Griffiths walked me
back from Laura's party."

THEY BOTH LAUGH

You dirty cow. I never knew you
got off with Mark Griffiths.

It's better than Greg
whatshisname. Oh, Perkins.

He's the one who turned me.
And you never looked back.

Oh, here we go!

Hm.

You know, it's not too late to
change your mind about Australia.

PHONE MESSAGE ALERT

I have to go.

Ryan's waiting for me.

All yours.

Great.

I put a tracker on Ryan's car.

I told you to stop.

Why's he going up to Carrig
Point at three in the morning?

It's none of your business.
Just stay out of it.

I can't find nothing
on his Army life.

So, if you see anything,
photos, regimental stuff...

I told you, stop!

You've already lost one kid
cos you couldn't be bothered.

You come near me or
my daughter again,

there'll be serious
f*cking consequences!

CAR STARTS

f*ck...

That's it.

Aw...

You'll send us a
postcard, won't you?

She's going to
Ryan's, not Australia.

She's not going to
Australia? No, Mum.

That wouldn't be
right, no. No.

Mwah!

We're here...

..if you ever... I know.

Thanks.

For doing this.

Oh, no, that's what...

It's what dads are for.

CAR ENGINE STARTS

All right?

Let's get this inside.

The office? To the left.

CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS

APPROACHING FOOTSTEPS

More books. Hm.

First-class honours
there. Just like Abbie.

Yeah, mine's just in business
and management, not biology.

I'll get the next box.

I'm going to miss you.

I bet I see you more
now than I did at home.

Oh, I do hope so.

Promise me you'll come and visit.
Well, I was thinking that you and I

might spend some time
together on the boat.

Aw, I would love that.

But I've already taken
too much time off work.

Why don't you ask Ryan?

Ask Ryan what?

Dad was thinking you two
could go out on the boat.

Well, you're a busy man,
what with your work...

When were you thinking?
Oh, I don't know.

Well, I'm free tomorrow,
as it happens. Any good?

Love you.

You, too.

PHONE MESSAGE ALERT

Abbie...

What is it?

Something's gone missing.

Claire?

What's happened?

Abbie phoned.

Ryan's medal seems
to be missing.

You took it.

Didn't you?

No.

Why would I take his medal?

I don't believe you.

I swear, I...

If I find out you're
lying... I'm not lying.

You're risking everything, Ed.

Me.

Abbie.

JOSH: No...!

HE STARTS

HE BREATHES HEAVILY

Now, one of these
was left on my boat.

And the word "k*ller"
was painted in red paint.

The other was left under
my windscreen wiper there

just after I'd spoken to you.

Which suggests you
were followed here.

And if you look on the back...

"Guilty." Now, as I told you,

Arthur Grady's missing. No-one
seems to know how or why.

And Des, well, he...
He's since died.

And Craig Pasarrello,
well, I've spoken to him.

He thinks I'm behind it all.

And there's no-one else you can
think of who might have left these?

Maybe Craig's toying with me.

All I know is

someone is trying
to ruin my business,

me, and my family.

And I need to know who it is.

DISTORTED LAUGHTER AND CHATTER

Well...

..you look the part.

Go on, pop down there.

Just go round the front.

Bye.

Thanks for doing this.
Oh, that's all right.

I, erm... I don't suppose
you've seen Ryan's medal?

It was in the office and it
seems to have just disappeared.

No, no.

It really means a lot to him.

Right, see you later. Bye!

All right, don't
touch anything, yeah?

Right...

Let's do a bit of gutting.
Have you ever done it before?

Hm.

I didn't think
so. There you go.

No.

Cut away from you.

Sorry if it smells of fish.

Do you know how
intimidated I was?

What, of me? Mm.

The way that Abbie
was talking about you.

Well, look at that, hey? I'll
make a fisherman of you yet.

Do you miss the Navy?

I like to feel a part of something,
you know, the camaraderie.

Why did you leave? Oh, Claire.

You know, she wanted
to start a family.

How about you?

I got shot. I didn't
have much choice.

PHONE RINGS

Is that when, er...

..Sergeant, erm...?

Slater? Slater, yeah.

Was that when, er,
she saved your life?

Yeah, erm...

..I saved the unit,
but then, er...

..bang!

Abbie said that you...

..got a medal for bravery.

You know, one of the first
things that she pulled out

when we got to the house
was a photo of Josh?

I'm sorry, Ed.

You must miss him.

How old was he? He was 12.

He insisted on
taking a dinghy out.

And, er...

I told him, I said
it was too rough.

The sea was too hungry.

But he went out anyway? Mm.

We used to live in the
harbour back then, and...

I thought he was in his room.

I should have known.
I should have checked.

PHONE RINGS

If I had, then he'd
still be alive today.

RINGING CONTINUES

What the f*ck do you want?

GEORGE: I know you don't want to
talk to me, but as far as I can see,

there were five Ryan Wilsons

who graduated from Fellows
University Manchester

at the time Ryan was there.
I thought I told you...

Look, one of them Ryan Wilsons
is the one going out with Abbie.

What does it matter,
George? Wait, wait, wait.

I'm getting to it,
Ed. Hear me out.

He said he was a
major, right? So?

Well, if Major Ryan Wilson
doesn't have a degree,

then there's no way he could
have been promoted that fast.

Ed, listen to me, there
were no Major Ryan Wilsons

serving in Afghanistan at the
time Ryan says he was there.

He's made it all up.

It's a complete lie.

Argh!

Argh!

Ah, sh*t! What have you done?

I just caught it. Bloody hell.

I slipped.

Here, just wrap that round it,
just cover that up. That's it.

Sorry, I just...

OK, we'll head back.

f*ck...

Ryan!

What's happened?

He had an accident
with a gutting knife.

I'm fine.

It looks worse than what
it is. I've patched him up.

He shouldn't need any stitches, but
it could do with a good clean-up.

The pub's got a very
good medical kit.

You weren't wrong
when you said that

fishing's one of the
most dangerous jobs.

Let's go.

Oh, and could you take
my car back to my home?

It's in the car park.

It's just, that, you know, Abbie
will need to get back to work

and I don't know how I'm
going to drive with this.

Oh, yeah, sure, sure, yeah.

You just stay there
and have a brandy.

Just put them in the letterbox.

Thanks, Dad.

Ed, what happened?
He just cut his hand.

It looks like
you've seen a ghost.

No, no, it's just...

I'll follow you,
give you a lift back.

No. No, no, I'll, er...

I could do with a walk.

CLAIRE: How did it go?
ED: Oh, it was fine.

Except, Ryan cut himself.
Erm, not too badly.

Abbie's taken him to get
cleaned up. What do you mean?

Well, one minute he was OK.

And the next minute, there
was, like, blood everywhere.

It was just an accident.

OK.

Well, I'll see you in a bit.

Hey, listen, Ryan asked me to
drop his car back to their place.

What about our appointment?

Our counselling?
Well, no, I'll...

I'll be there.

You promised me, Ed. Yeah,
I'll just drop his car off

and then I'll walk down.
I'll be there before you.

Yeah, erm... I'd better go.

Bye.

EXASPERATED SIGH

Ed...!

What did he say?

He didn't. You
didn't even ask him?

Ryan told me everything
about his military career.

What am I supposed
to say to him,

"It's all bollocks
cos George says so"?

I've seen his medal.
Yeah, and what?

I can get one of them
on eBay for a tenner.

He got shot saving
people's life. No.

No, listen.

Listen, I can't find
nothing on his Army record.

But I can find out who he was
before he changed his name.

All I need is a passport,
a driver's license,

even a national
insurance number.

CAR STARTS

You're good at this.

You've still not told
me what happened.

It was just a stupid accident.

I thought you didn't
have accidents like that.

Are we done? Hold still.

You and my dad didn't...

..get in a fight, did you?

HE SCOFFS

Seriously?

You think your dad
pulled a knife on me?

He's under a lot of
stress at the moment.

I was fine.

And then a big wave
knocked me back.

And the knife...

Thank you.

SHE SIGHS

This is Ed. Leave a message.

I thought you were going
to be here before me.

But you're not.

Why am I not surprised?

You'd better be on your way, Ed.

Hello?

Ed...?

I knew it was you.

What's in the past
stays in the past.

You hate me giving my
attention to anyone but you.

You and I both know
that's not true.

An incident occurred
in Gibraltar.

What exactly are you hiding?

I know what I did and
what I've had to hide.

Mr Collier, Detective
Inspector Knott.

Don't go too far because
I need to talk to you.
