01x06 - Gale Force

[bunniefuu]

Adamma! Please!

We have to talk!

She's not letting me in the house.

I just think all this stuff has come
as such a massive shock, you know.

- What does she know?
- In detail, not much at all, really.

But enough to put
most of your lives in danger.

Oh, well, only I wouldn't want
to put it that way, but...

Mrs. Kenny, my name is Quinn.

Could we have a little chat?

Okay.

NORTH SEA CONNECTION
EPISODE 06

Where were you last night?

Just didn't feel much like coming over.

Okay.

Have you, uh...

have you heard from Hana at all?

No, not since I saw her yesterday.
Why?

Well, I... I just wondered
if you had a chance...

She believed my story
about Lenny being a drug smuggler,

if that's what you're worried about.

That's not why I called, Shane.
I just wanted...

Yeah, right.

I can see why you moved here.

It's a long way from the city.

It is.

But, you know, the scenery.

The air.

What's your offer?

I don't think you quite understand
the position you're in.

I'm here to give you a chance to reassure me
that you can keep your mouth shut.

The fact that you've come
all that way at such short notice,

tells me that what you have going
with Aidan is very important to you.

If it wasn't, I'm guessing
we'd both be dead.

I'll admit there might be
a slight power imbalance.

I'll lay it out for you.

You need what Aidan can offer,

but you can't rely
on my loyalty to him,

you really can't,

and the Guards are just a phone call away.

But you're reluctant to k*ll me
because Aidan would fall to pieces,

jeopardizing your business,

and bringing unwanted
police attention.

So...

what's your offer?

Well, what did she say?

How is she?

She's your wife, Aidan.

Talk to her.

Hey, you okay?

- I'm so sorry.
- When aren't you sorry for something?

Can I come in?

No.

You're up early.

Well, vegetables don't
take care of themselves.

I said I would do that.

I'll be in when I'm done.

Let me do that. Come on.

No, I said I'll be in when I'm done.

When I do something wrong,
I'm used to hearing about it pretty quick.

Well, have you done something wrong?

- No.
- Well, then...

You don't understand.

Nej, nej...

No, I think the added security we get

from freezing the product
in transit will...

pay dividends in the long run.

I hear there's a Swedish police officer
in town, so maybe it's your end that.

If it becomes a problem,
I will deal with it, but I just...

- What?
- What, what?

Is this an Irish thing,
or is it just you?

Judge issued a warrant
to search Nevins' boat.

Are you there, Martin?

Okay.

Egan.

Look.

Voila.

Will you arrest him now?

If I can find him.

He'll know we paid him a visit.

Will he run?

He won't run.

- Have you seen Martin?
- Not today.

He won't like you being on his boat.

No, he won't.

I'll tell him you're looking'.

See you later.

All right?

Half Con's pots are busted to shite.

It's no wonder he's packing
the boat in.

Do you want tea?

You know, the mad thing is,
I was happy and I didn't even know it.

You and me, the boat, all that.

Doesn't have to change.

Yeah, it does.

See, it's different for you.

How do you mean?

Eight-meter waves in a force-nine gale,

engine drops out, remember?

And you handle it.

That's what you do, you handle it.

'Cause you're skipper.

I'm not a criminal, Ciara.

- No, you're not.
- I am.

We all are, and now Hana's
mixed up in it as well.

No, you're a good man.

We k*lled Lenny!

If he didn't take that meth,
he'd still be alive.

So, it's his fault now, is it?

We burned him, Ciara.

We f*ck' burned him.

I can't stay. I'm...

I'm done, I'm finished.

The only out I can see is to go,
so...

So...

I hate what this has done to me.

I can't stand what it's done to you.

If you go, I'll find you.

Hey, how are ya?

Shall I put the kettle on?

Well, will I? Cuppa tea?

What are you doing here?

Okay.

Look.

I am...

Well, I don't think there's
an easy way to sugar this.

Adamma knows. Quinn's here,
he's dealing with it and we're moving on.

He's dealing with it?

Look, don't worry, she's fine.

-I wonder if I could sleep here
tonight? -No.

Adamma knows about the drugs,
Aidan? How?

She thought I was gambling,
which I'm not, in a problem way.

There was a bit of miscommunication,
talking past each other type thing, and...

Yeah, we're fine, we're fine.

Oh, grand, yeah,
as long as you think it's sorted.

Shane is gone.

Well, he can't go.
Quinn's not gonna take that well.

You don't need to tell me that.

Like, I'm only asking for one night.

-Adamma needs a little time to
adjust. -No way.

- Do you know how cold it is outside?
- Yeah, I do.

Maybe you'll freeze to death.

Thank you.

No Nevins?

He'll show up.

Like dog shite on your shoe.

We've identified the man
at the gas station in Sligo.

- Who is he?
- James Thompson.

He has known links with an established
organized crime g*ng.

- Have they brought him in?
- No. He seems to have disappeared.

You still think he k*lled Lenny?

- Or... other way around?
- No way.

What?

Lenny kills him and then he dies
in an accidental van fire?

No, it doesn't make sense.

Hana.

What were you doing
on my boat?

Why don't you get out of the van
and we'll talk about it?

Don't you f*ck' walk away from me.

- So?
- You are under arrest.

Now, don't be stupid, Egan.

Oh, wait a minute.

That Swedish copper has found
you out, hasn't she, huh?

And you need a catch, don't ya,
so you pulled me in.

- Course you f*ck.
- I won't let you bring that

poison into my village.

What are you talking about?
f*ck you, Egan.

Why don't you go f*ck yourself
the way I f*cked your wife?

There are fisher's knots
that Ciara Kenny makes.

If drugs are being brought into
Roskillane, they'd need a boat, right?

- A skipper.
- Hana, I don't think...

What if she's the one
bringing the gear in?

What if she's the one
that got Lenny involved?

I have to call you back.

Egan, Egan!

What are you doing?

I'm making an arrest.

Aidan?

Aidan, I know you're in here.
Your car's outside.

I thought you are going.

You know you can't, don't ya?

What is it about you Kennys
telling me what I can and can't do?

- Look...
- You don't stop, do ya?

- You don't understand.
- No, you don't understand.

All of this is because of you.

Your big mouth, your big ideas,
the drugs.

The g*ns, Lenny.

It's you.

- You're gonna put Quinn off.
- How am I...

If you don't and he comes for me,

I promise I'll make sure he comes
knocking for you straight after.

No, you won't.

I'll say you're gonna double-cross him,
sell the drugs to another buyer.

You won't because you'll be dead.

And so will you,
so put him off.

You spin whatever bullshit you have to.

That's one thing you're good at.

There it is!

Oh, my God, I am so sick to the
back teeth

of everyone queuing up
to tell me how useless I am,

how full of bullshit I am.

Bollix to the lot of yous.

All I actually did was borrow money
off the wrong man

in the hope of making
a better life for everyone I know,

and all I've done since then,

is my level fecking best to make
sure you don't just survive this,

you benefit from it.

Financial security
for the first time in your life.

Who'd have thought it?

Shane McDonagh.

Nice car, his own home.

Come on, that must be worth a punt.

You can't go.

Watch me.

What about Ciara?

She acts all strong, you know,
playing the skipper, but...

she loves you.

Oh, sh*t.

Wakey wakey.

Wh-What do you want?

We're going to Dublin.

Why?

All it tells me is that
Ciara Kenny was here once.

Not when, or why, or how long for.

Lenny trusted her.

He respected her, even.

And I could see her persuading him
into doing something he shouldn't have.

Hana, we have found evidence that
Nevins was bringing in the drugs.

Nevins?

Lenny worked with him,
didn't he?

Y-Yeah, only... only when he had to.

Like, he was a bully,
but he couldn't push Lenny around.

If he had something to do
with Lenny's death, he will pay.

Where's the mayo?

Jesus Christ.

I know.

I spoke to a guy in Galway CID.

He'll give you half an hour with Nevins,
before they take him to Dublin.

I'm suspended.

They're sending Tom Curley
over to keep an eye on you.

He's the young Guard you met
on the beach on your first day.

- Okay.
- And he's a gobshite,

but at least you can get on
and do whatever you need to do.

- I couldn't lie about what happened.
- I wouldn't want you to.

Here. You'll need these.

You Bryan?

- Yeah.
- You got it, then?

What's going on?

And?

This the fella?

Yeah.

What's your name?

Aidan.

- Bryan, we are not taking this baby.
- This is what she wants.

You can have that too.

Be nice, yeah?

Yeah.

Thanks.

I'm going.

Leaving town.

What are you talking about,
going where?

I can't say for sure.

To be honest, I don't
even know myself.

But I'd like to see you before I go.

Tonight, Lenny's beach.

Okay.

Are you okay?

Yeah. I'll tell you when I see you.

Bye.

Hey.

What is she so interested in?

Your policewoman.

There's all sorts of stories
going round.

About Lenny and about smuggling
and...

She's a detective.

Her job is to ask questions.

But why is she asking them of you?

Do you remember where we met?

You know.

The cylinder head was down.
It was the end of the road.

My old car.

And not only that,
it was the end of the road for me.

When I said that you saved
my life in that moment...

I meant that truly.

What are you
talking about?

And then we bought this house,

our home, made our lives together.

And I said there were some questions
I could not answer.

Would not.

I always knew, that you were on the run.

And I knew not to ask what from.

I didn't need to know,

not then, not now.

- I, eh...
- No, no, Bjorn.

All I need to know,

is will you have to run again?

It's the very last thing I want to do.

But if I have to...

will you come with me?

Of course.

Of course.

I have deliveries to do.

What do you want?

It's no way to greet someone, is it?

Quinn wants you.

When?

Now.

Mr. Nevins.

- Inspector Palsson.
- Yeah, we met.

Enjoying your holiday, are ya?

Where did you get this from?

No comment.

Fishing is not rich man's work.
That is a lot of money.

Where is Egan?

On remand, I hope,
for police brutality.

I'd love to see that shite on a prison
wing with all the friends he's made,

you know
what I mean?

I'll betcha he wouldn't be able to crawl
out of there on his hands and knees.

You're in a difficult position.

Yeah, well, you want to talk
to Egan about that.

He put that stuff in me boat.

The minimum sentence for importing
a controlled drug is ten years.

You're a small link in a long chain.

You help me, I can help you.

Swedish, are ya?

Well, f*ck you and your pickled herring
and your Borgen Worgen Wallander bollix.

This has got f*ck all to do with me.

- But you will go to jail.
- I will not!

What is this?

Egan couldn't keep it up
long enough to satisfy his wife,

so he gets you to set me behind bars?
No f*ck' way.

I'm not the one with the big warehouse
and the fancy machinery.

I'm not the one that's hoovering up every
skipper's catch, for 20 miles about...

Yeah, well, like I said,
no f*ck' comment.

What's property like round here?

I mean, there must be
some great old places.

I could go for somewhere in
the local, what do you call it...

vernacular.

Somewhere that makes you feel like
you're part of the land, you know.

Part of history.

Sure, it makes you proud.

What do you want?

You make problems.

Nothing but problems with the Kennys.

- We've done all you asked.
- And there's more to do.

Which is why you're standing there
and not in the boot of my car

wrapped in plastic
with a b*llet in your eye.

I'm dealing with Aidan's
little difficulty.

But that still leaves
the problem with the girl.

Hana, is it?

What's she got to do with it?

I hear that she's
been talking to the police.

So she is a loose end
that needs tying.

Tight.

I want you to make that happen.

What you mean?

She doesn't know anything,
she's upset about Lenny is all.

She's no threat to you, Quinn.

That's the funny thing about you,
Ciara.

You're decisive, single-minded.

You're a grafter.

You get things done.

But for some reason, you just won't see
the whole picture, will ya?

Whereas your brother, the feckless
little gobshite that he is,

understands completely,

that you are now part
of something bigger.

Part of the Connection.

If you don't deal with Hana,
then I'll deal with her.

And then I'll deal with you.

Let me know when it's done.

Hiya, Hana?

It's Ciara.

Hi.

Yeah.

Yes.

Yes.

I know.

I know, I know.

I know.

If it's boxes you want,
I can pick some up tomorrow.

No, I've got boxes.
It's you I'm after.

Family dinner tonight.

- I'm going out on the boat.
- Well.

The rain is coming your way.
You can be back in time for dinner.

Mam...

We don't know how many opportunities
we're going to get, do we?

- Mam, I have to go.
- Yeah, and bring that boyfriend of yours.

- Shane is not my boyfriend.
- Have you seen Aidan, recently?

I can't get him on his phone.

I’ve not told you?

Told me what?

He's had a bust-up
with Adamma.

He's kipping at the unit.
He's avoiding ya.

He's what?

I have to go, Mam. Slan.

Slan.

Did you forget your keys?

Can I come in?

It won't take long.

What do you want?

I have something for you.

The Irish Police have
Martin Nevins in custody.

The money you stole,
it was being laundered.

Of all the people to steal from...

best you ran when you did.

Probably saved your life.

See you around.

Nevins had started selling
his catch to your son-in-law,

hadn't he?

Eh, I think.

Perhaps. Maybe.

I don't know for sure.

Hello?

Hi. It's me.

They arrested Martin Nevins
for smuggling meth.

I heard.

Lenny knew Nevins well enough

to steer clear of getting
into heavy sh*t with him.

He didn't like the man,
and he trusted him even less,

but he trusted you, though.

I'll take that as a compliment.

It's not meant as one.

What happened to Lenny?

- He died in a fire.
- Did he, though?

Come on, Ciara, you have to tell me.

I won't go to the cops, I swear. I just
want to know what happened to him.

I don't want to miss the tide.

If you want to talk,
you can come with me.

Come on.

Hi, it's Hana.
I can't come to the phone.

Please leave a message
after the beep. Thanks.

Aidan?

Hello, Mr. Kenny? Anybody here?

Hey, Egan.

I know you're suspended, and I really
shouldn't be telling you this.

You're probably in the pub,
anyway, but, uh...

well, you should know.

I think I found where
they're processing the drugs.

Okay, call me back.

Open the door! Open the door!

Open the door right...
Open the door right now!

Damn! Open the door!

Open up, open the door!

Open the door!

What the f*ck.

Open the god damn door.
Open the god damn door.

Open it! Damn...

Hana!

Hi, it's Hana.
I can't come to the phone.

Please leave a message
after the beep. Thanks.

Hana, it's me. Where are you?
Just call me when you get this, right?

Well?

It's done.

Ciara. You know where she is, don't ya?

- Where is she?
- What are you talking about?

- Hana. Where is she, Ciara?
- Come on, have your go.

- I swear to God, if you've touched...
- If I've what, what have I done?

- We were meant to meet, she didn't show.
- Well, I've done nothin'.

You've given her to Quinn, haven't ya?
You've handed her over.

You don't know what you're talking
about. I'm trying to protect you.

Protect me? Protect me?
Is that what you think you're doing?

f*ck' listen to me!

I don't know where she's gonna go, but...

she's as safe as I can make her.

Now you know too, so...

that puts the both of you at risk.

Never wanted to go.

So stay.

What about Quinn?

The product they're
carrying has to be collected,

cut, and delivered to Dun Laoghaire,
by you, within 48 hours.

Some of it is to develop
the local Irish market,

the rest goes on ships to
various international destinations.

Time, timing...
is the very essence of what we do.

He's not my skipper.

She's very beautiful,
what do you think?

Yes, she is.

I'm going to find us
a way out of this.

No.

If working with Quinn is his price,
we're in, all the way.

It's Mam.

We better get going.

Hi, Mam. Uh, we're just setting off.

Got some very exciting news.

Open the door!

- There you are!
- Hiya, Mam.

- Here she is.
- Bring her in! Out of the cold, come on.

She's gorgeous!

Scattered heavy showers in all...

with the risk of thunderstorms.

Later, heavy clouds.
