02x10 - Episode 10

[bunniefuu]

Hello!

I'm here to collect the whisky
for The Commodore!

PHONE: Which service do you require?

I need an ambulance, please.

Carrowdore Distillery.

There's a woman here,
she's unconscious.

I'm going to go have a word with
him.

Al.

Callum here says he saw you
with Jake McGrade.

Were you selling him
confidential information?

You followed me?

If you'd any concerns,
why didn't you just say?

Actually, can you give me and Finn
a moment, please?

Look, Jake McGrade has got himself
involved with some dangerous people.

Like who?

Donnie Kesson.

The loan shark?

Kesson's branching out.

Robbery, intimidation and violence.

So, the Organised Crime Branch
approached me

when they found out that
I know Jake McGrade.

Because you investigated the ATM
theft his mother went down for?

That, and he used to go out
with my daughter.

Ah.

So, what Callum saw was what?

Was me passing bogus police intel
to Jake McGrade

to gain his trust.

Sorry to interrupt.

There's been a robbery
at Carrowdore Distillery.

Let's go. Al...

Apologies. I did have to ask.

Not a problem.

When are you going to tell Finn
you're sleeping with his wife?

I already explained to you
that there's nothing going on

between me and Siobhan.

I saw you.

The day that Finn was taken
to hospital.

What you saw was me comforting
a friend who'd just been through

a serious trauma.

Tell me, Callum,
have I done something to annoy you?

No.

In that case, why don't you
cut me some slack?

Marlene.

Hiya. So, erm, it was Clint who
found the security guard.

I called in to pick up
our order of whisky

and found Maxine unconscious.

Maxine is stable, but she's
definitely had a blow to the head.

Was anything stolen?

Well, there should be 15 casks
of their oldest whisky in there,

but it's all gone.

What's that worth?

95 grand.

Per cask.

Well, that...
that's over £one million.

The CCTV hard drive was taken
and the alarms were disabled.

We're looking at a professional
job here.

What's this?

What?

That's Barry's taxi badge.

He's organising a big charity dinner
in this place, so he's been in

and out getting things arranged.

I got the managing director
on the phone.

He told me there should be two vans
parked outside.

So, now we know how the thieves
got away.

PHONE BUZZES

He also said all their vans are
equipped with hidden CCTV cameras.

OK. So, we find the van,
we find the robbers. Yeah.

Callum, we need the registration
of the missing van

if we're going to have any chance
of tracking it down on ANPR.

Yeah, on it.

Marlene, can you do me a huge
favour, find out when CSI

are going to get here so we can
establish the scene?

Yeah, yeah, of course.

Uniform Uniform,
we need an ETA on CSI.

If them robbers had been
five minutes later,

I could have been k*lled.

And left me a single mother.

What's wrong, sweetheart?

I just know Marlene is pregnant.

But she's not doing the test
until after work.

Have you never heard of
a woman's intuition?

Our surrogate is pregnant, and...

..I'm never going to bond
with the baby.

Nicole Devine-Dunwoody...

..you are a warm and loving
human being.

And I refuse to believe you won't
grow to love our child,

no matter how he or
she comes into the world.

But I won't get that special moment
in the delivery room,

where the midwife hands you
your newborn.

I thought you'd gone off babies.

Well, if you want to have a child,
a baby is kind of a necessity.

What if you talked to someone who
never knew their birth mother?

Someone who was adopted? Exactly.

This person...

The bond between them and
their adoptive mother, it's...

..ah, it's unbreakable.

I opened my big mouth with Siobhan.

Told her she shouldn't move to
Belfast with you because she doesn't

know what you're really like. What?!

Soon as the words were out of
my mouth, I regretted it.

Backtracked.

Told her I was exaggerating because
me and you had fallen out.

PHONE BUZZES
Well...

..doesn't look like she
believed you.

Anyway, Siobhan's the least
of our worries.

Callum saw me passing intel
to Jake McGrade.

He told Finn about it.

What did Finn do?

I persuaded him it was part of
an undercover operation.

And he believed that?
I think so.

Why are you so freaked out, then?

The distillery's been robbed.

The thieves took over £1 million
worth of whisky, right?

The intel Jake wanted -
it was for a robbery

he was planning in this area.

Jake used to work here,
Saturday job.

So he'd know how the alarms work.

You can't seriously be saying
that Jake McGrade stole

a million quid's worth of whisky?
Not on his own, no.

He's working for Donnie Kesson.

So, what?

Jake's an amateur.

If he gets arrested, he'll drop me
and you right in it

and we'll end up in jail.

What are you going to do?

Make sure they don't get caught.

They didn't drive it very far.

No. But this lot are smart.

They'll have swapped the whisky
into their own vehicle here.

I mean, it's off the beaten track,
which means no witnesses.

So, where's this hidden
CCTV cam, then?

The manager said it's in the back.

They're wearing masks.

So much for the CCTV identifying
the suspects.

Hang on a minute.

Isn't that...?

Barry? No.

It'll be someone who looks like him.
Zoom in there, Cub.

That's definitely Barry.

Why's he helping them rob
the distillery?

More barmbrack, David?

Mm. Don't mind if I do Mrs O.

It's beyond yummy.

So, how long are you
in Port Devine, David?

Just the one night.

I'm hiking right down the coast.

Oh, I thought you were giving
up the B&B, Nanny?

I have been thinking of it,
but David called

and insisted on booking a room.

Said I came highly recommended.

I'd barely time to change
the bed linen.

SIREN WAILS

What are Marlene and Callum
doing here?

Your son's friendly with
the local police?

He is the local police.

Dad's the inspector.

Oh...

Have you seen Barry? Why? What's up?

We're worried he's in
terrible trouble.

That robbery at the distillery.

They took £1 million worth of
whisky. And we've got Barry

on CCTV helping the suspects.
Uncle Barry! Are you here?

Uncle Barry!

Why are you looking for Barry?

I haven't got time to explain, Ma.
Have you seen him?

I heard him go out around
two o'clock, but nothing since.

What's the old fool got himself
caught up in this time?

Your tongue is that sharp, Concepta,

it's a wonder you don't cut
yourself. Sorry, love.

Is Barry in trouble? We don't know.

We should get back to the station.

OK, do you want me to come,
maybe I can give you a hand?

Yeah, please.

I'll phone around and find out
if anyone's seen him.

OK, thanks, Ma.

Look, this is getting really heavy.

If I haven't heard from you
in half an hour, I'm out of here.

Jake, it's me.

Again.

If you know what's good for you,
you'll ring me back.

Here you are.

I've left you about 100 messages.

Yeah, my phone's been playing up.

Uh, I mentioned to Taylor I might
be moving to Belfast with you.

She told me not to.

Said I don't know who you are,
what you've done.

You know what kids are like.

Hmm.

Yeah, but then she started
backtracking.

Tried to fob me off.

I'm no fool, Al.

I know something's going on,
something serious.

You know the ATM theft?

It was Taylor's idea,
and she got caught on camera.

Now, I deleted the footage...

..to stop my daughter from going
to prison.

Jake McGrade...

..then had other evidence to prove
that she was guilty.

Demanded that I give him ten grand
to save his family's farm.

Now, I managed to raise most of
it myself, but, erm.

I was three grand short.

What did you do?

I'm sorry, Siobhan.

I'll pay it back, I swear.

Pay what back?

The money you raised for
the cancer charity.

It was you? Look, you don't need to
look at me like that.

I couldn't feel any worse
if I tried.

This is why I need to get out
of this place, all right?

Fresh start with you.

That money was to repay the people
who saved my life.

Siobhan...

..I love you.

Well, I don't love you.

I can't even look at you.

I need to know if you're
going to tell anyone.

You going to tell Finn?

I'll have to think about that.

It's not just me you'll be sending
to jail, all right?

It's Taylor.

A 20-year-old girl with the rest
of her life in front of her!

Yeah?

Well, she should have thought about
that before she broke the law.

You both should!

Barry's been serving this community
for 50 years, in and out of uniform.

I mean, there's no way
he's a criminal.

It looks to me like he's acting
under duress.

The taxi firm told me that Barry
drove out to do a job

at Devine Point. That was
at 2.15 this afternoon.

I've just tried calling the
customer's mobile number there.

It doesn't exist.
So, it was a set-up.

Has there been any other sightings
of Barry's cab since?

No, not one.

Finn. Hi.

What are you doing here?

We need all hands on deck, Al.

Great idea.

The sooner you're back here,
the better.

So, Barry's not injured.
Nobody's holding a g*n to his head.

So, they must have some
leverage over him.

What are you driving at?

Barry has keys to the distillery,
right?

I reckon this is a tiger kidnapping.

Like the Northern Bank job in
Belfast a few years back?

Yeah.

They use a key-holder to get into
the place that they want to rob.

In a tiger kidnapping,
the suspects usually take at least

one person hostage.

Someone the victim cares about.

And Marlene's right here.

And Mum and Lil are in Magaluf.

KNOCK AT DOOR

All right?

You know that guy, David,
who's staying with Nanny?

After you guys left,
I overheard him make a call.

He, uh, said something about things
getting heavy?

If he harms one hair on my ma's
head! Concepta?

But she and Barry don't
even like each other.

Let's go, Cub. OK, Sarge.

We need to stop Finn before he gets
to that fella.

Here. My gran and Barry love
the bones of each other.

How could you have lived here for so
long and not know that?

Uh, why don't we take a selfie?

Another one? For my blog.

No smiling.

Say, "Hard cheese."

BOTH: Hard cheese.

PHONE CAMERA CLICKS

What're they doing back here?

What's up, son?
Ma, your paying guest.

David? Yeah, we think he's involved
in Barry's disappearance.

No, you're mistaken.
He's here. David.

David?

He's done a runner!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Nice work.

I didn't hurt your mum.

I wouldn't do that.

I only kept an eye on her.
Took some photos as proof.

Who did you send them to?

A guy I know from uni.

What's his name?

Jake McGrade.

Jake McGrade?

So, Organised Crime was right - he
and Kesson were planning something.

What do you mean?

Al was doing a bit of undercover
work for the Belfast boys.

Yeah, I sold Jake some bogus intel.

They wanted me to get pally with
him, so I could find out

what they were planning.
Callum here saw me with Jake

and told the inspector
I was up to no good.

Oh, Cub.

So, did you get much out of
that David lad?

Yeah, he showed us texts from Jake.

The deal was, he stuck to
Concepta like glue,

and then sent photos of her
to Jake every hour.

In return, he got two hundred quid.

So, the photos were to convince
Barry that she was being held hostage.

At least Ma's unharmed.

But we still don't know
where Barry is.

Those guys have got the whisky.

Surely they'll just let him go?

What if he's seen their faces?

I mean, they've already put
a security guard in hospital.

Al, your Taylor went out with Jake.

She might well know where he'd bring
the whisky.

On it. Cub.

Why don't you and I drive over
to the McGrade farm?

Let's see if Tom knows what
his son's been up to.

There's must be more we can do.

Al has alerted Organised Crime
in Belfast.

Concepta's got half the town
out looking.

But I can't just sit here, Finn,
so I'm going to drive around

and see if I can see Barry's
taxi anywhere.

Good idea, Marlene, OK.

Boss.

Tell me you don't trust Al?

Callum, me and Al go way back.

There's something else you should
know about him.

What?

He's sleeping with your wife.

You must have some idea where Jake
might have taken the whisky.

There is one place.

It's a warehouse in the middle
of nowhere.

Belongs to Jake's uncle.

What's the address?
I don't know exactly.

Jake always drove.

It's on the other side of
Ballymountain, near the old abbey.

I'll find it.

I need you to go back to the house
and pack a bag.

Really?

If Finn finds Jake before I do,
we're going to need to disappear.

Here you are, son.

This is Port Devine.

Our JJ's never been here before,
and you his godfather.

I've been quite busy.

You don't need to tell me that.

Your Nicole is a full-time job.

What do you think of the place?

It's OK.

It's amazing. I've never seen
anywhere so wonderful.

So, where is poor Nicole?

She's behind the bar.

She's going through a rough time at
the minute, so we need to play this

softly, softly, OK?
You know me, cuz.

Tact is my middle name.

Nicole! My wee pet.

Never fear, Tammy's here.

Hello, Tammy.

And who's this?

Oh, this is my JJ.
Come to see his Auntie Nicole.

Oh, he's grown.

A lot.

Since he had his picture
in the paper.

Oh, no, no, no.
He's put all that behind him.

Yeah, as good as gold now.

And the bishop? Very forgiving.

Say hello to your Auntie Nicole.
Hello, Auntie Nicole.

See how shy he is.

So quiet and introverted
since he turned 14.

He's only 14?

Can I have a word?

Excuse us.

What is your sheep-stealing
cousin doing here?

Tammy's who I was talking about.

Tammy's adopted? Aye.

And she adores my Auntie Muriel.

Her adopted mother.

They even look alike,
got the same ponytail.

Look, I know Tammy is
a bit rough and ready,

but she's got a heart of gold.

Just look at the way she takes care
of my ma.

All I ask is that you hear her out.

No, Marlene. No sign of Jake
or his dad at the farm.

We'll find Barry, I promise.

Boss.

See you inside.

Hey. Hiya.

Can I have a word?

I've been sleeping with Al.

I know.

To be honest, we're kind of hoping
that this second go

at surrogacy doesn't work out.

We don't think that a baby
is for us.

But you wanted that wee dote, Keira?

Well, that was more like
having a mini-me.

You know, someone to play dress-up
with and teddy bears picnics.

Not quite, erm, 3am feeds
and stinking nappies.

Well, you get through all that.

Slowly, day by day, your baby
turns into a real person.

Like my wee angel over there.

Yeah, but you gave birth to JJ.
You had that bond from the off.

Giving birth to that big lump
nearly k*lled me.

You'll be spared all that.

Besides, you know that
I was adopted?

Clint did mention it.

And my mummy, she always said I was
the most wanted child of all.

Because she chose me.

I did this.

I'm sorry?

I drove you and Al together.

No... I can make my own mistakes.

You came back to Port Devine
to repair our marriage.

And all I've done is frustrate that.

Yeah, but if it's not what
you want, Finn.

Why do you think I'm still
wearing that?

When I was falling to pieces, I
convinced myself that you couldn't

possibly want anybody
so useless in your life.

Hey, that's not what you are.

The day of my crash,
I was driving to see you.

Because I loved you then,
and I love you now.

A part of the PTSD -
a big part of the PTSD -

was always remembering how my dad
just ran out on me and Mum

when I was ten.
Yeah, but you're not your dad.

Yeah, but I must be like him.

He had mental health issues,
I have mental health issues.

His answer was to run away
from everything.

I am determined not to do that.

Niamh, Shay and you -
you're my family.

I'm going to try to make this work.

To make us work.

That feels good.

Yeah.

It does.

Why did you tell me about Al?

Because he's a liar and a thief.

Ah!

Dammit! Eejit!

I know that voice.

That's you. Jake McGrade?

Stay quiet.

You saw what the boss did
to that security guard.

Security guard?

Her name is Maxine, and you've known
her ever since you were a toddler!

Well, she should have done
what she was told.

What are you thinking, Jake?

I made my mum a promise
when she got sent to jail.

I promised her I'd look after
my dad.

With Mum in jail, my dad can't cope
with the farm any more.

So I sent him abroad,
said it was a holiday.

Tomorrow, I'll join him
with a bag of cash.

We'll be set for life.

You think the law won't find you?

Just cos you're lying on some beach
in Spain?

I'm sorry you got dragged into this,
Mr Pettigrew.

But I won't let you get inside
my head.

Do the right thing, Jake.

Let me go.

Outside! Now!

This guy says he's a friend
of yours.

He's no friend.
He's a police officer.

What the hell... Whoa!

I'm not here to arrest anyone.

You must be Donnie Kesson.

What are you here for?

This is your uncle's place, right?

Aye. Yeah.

If I can find it, my colleagues
aren't going to be far behind.

You need to get out of here.

Ah...!

Why are you so worried
about our welfare?

He doesn't want me telling the cops
what I know about his daughter.

And him.

Exactly.

How are you getting on with
transferring the whisky?

Nearly there. One barrel to go.
All right, you carry on with that.

I'll help you load up the truck. OK.

Just one thing.

I don't want you hurting
the old man.

I'll leave him here, then.

You want to come back later
and find him...

I can't see that happening. Can you?

Barry, I'm trying to save you here.

You're just trying to save yourself.

I heard every word.

BARRY GROANS

SIREN WAILS

Police! Put the weapon down!

Weapon down!

Uncle Barry, it's OK. Just breathe.

Uniform Uniform, we need an
ambulance ASAP to...

Give it up, up Jake!

Callum!

At last.

Look, I'm sorry. I just...
I couldn't get the cash you need.

Why not?

Because I told him not to.

Where are you meeting your father,
Taylor?

Every line dad crossed was
because I messed up.

It's me you should be after,
not him.

I know you love your dad.

But if he starts running now,
he'll never stop.

He'll be looking over his shoulder
for the rest of his life.

You both will.

BARRY GROANS

There you are.

Am I OK, Marlene? Yeah.

Yeah, you're fine.

You have a punctured lung,

a couple of broken ribs.

But, erm, no other damage.

I thought my time had come.

Oh, stop. That's a long way off.

Hmm.

Ooh...! Hmm.

I tell ya.
I'm not as young as I was.

MARLENE LAUGHS SOFTLY

No, you're going to live to 100.

And that is an order.

Nurse said it would be OK.

You stay where you are, Marlene.

No, I have to get back to
the station anyway. Go on.

Right, erm...

See you later. Thanks, love.

And, uh, thank Finn and Callum
for me too, will ya?

I will.

I've been told you went through
all of this to keep me safe.

That's very kind of you.

Well...

..we've been neighbours a long time.

40 years. Hmm.

I know we'll never see eye to eye.

About anything. But...

BARRY SIGHS

I'd never let any harm befall you.

Where's Tammy?

Och, I gave her a few quid
to go and treat JJ.

He really does seem like
a lovely boy.

Yeah, he does seem to have calmed
down since the last time I saw him.

I'm starting to wonder if I've just
been over-thinking things.

If Marlene is pregnant,

well, then we'll just take things
one step at a time.

You do not know how glad I am
to hear you say that.

Tammy's view is that
I'm so full of empathy

that I could bond with any child.

I've a strong feeling that
she's right.

Well, amen to that.

Finn came to see me today.

He wants us to get back together.

At last. Hallelujah.

What?

I thought that's what you wanted.
Oh, it is.

I'm worried he's doing it
for all the wrong reasons.

He was talking about his dad's
mental health issues.

Finn wants to get the family
back together...

..to prove that he's not like Gus.

Finn is nothing like Gus.

I wouldn't know.

You never talk about him.
Look...

If you don't want to get back with
Finn, why don't you just clear off

out of here? Instead of going
looking for made up excuses?

Concepta.

Finn's been treated for PTSD.

Now, I'm concerned he's moving
too far, too fast.

And do you know why I'm concerned?

Because I love him.

You don't need to worry about Gus.

Or his mental health problems.

Why not?

What, because you say so?

Gus isn't Finn's father.

What? The truth is...

..I'm not Finn's mother.

Not his birth mother.

Obviously, I brought him up and I
loved him as much as any mother can.

But he wasn't my baby.

That bus from Belfast took forever.

What have I missed?

Let me talk to him. Please.

One minute.

Where's your stuff?

In Finn's car.

I'm not coming, Dad.

We haven't got time for this.

We should've admitted what
we did straight away.

All this lying,
it's just made everything worse.

All right, all right, we can talk about
this on... Dad, you're not listening to me.

I'm not going to live like this
any more.

Do you want me to go to prison?

I want you to tell the truth.

No matter what it costs us.

Please, don't make me choose.

I'll make a statement.

About the ATM theft,
then you can charge me.

Taylor, no.

For once in your life, Dad,
do the right thing.

A wise woman, your daughter.

What would you know about it?

Well she's wee-ed on the stick,
so all we can do now is wait.

What usually happens with
a surrogate is...

..they decide to keep
the baby themselves.

Aye, right, yeah,
in soap operas maybe.

I'll definitely not be keeping
this one.

Yeah, Nicole was saying
the same thing earlier on.

Told me she didn't want
to keep the baby.

Until I talked her round, of course.

Is that right?

After everything I've been through,
now you don't want it?

Marlene, you're needed outside now.

Well, I'm kind of busy here, Clint.
Just go!

It's Callum, he's in trouble.

What?

Callum!

Sarge.

I've been arrested.

What?

What are you arresting him for?

They're saying I've committed
misconduct in public office.

Somebody accessed confidential
intelligence using my log-in

and passed it to Donnie Kesson.

Al.

Cub, do not worry.

I'm going to sort this,
I promise you, OK? OK.

Shay!

Shay, do you know where your da is?

Uh... Shay, come on! I need to know
where your da is!

So, that's the big plan,
is it, a boat?

You got a better idea?
Yeah. I'll arrest you.

By the time they get here,
I'll be long gone.

Not if I stop you, mate.

I've got my g*n.

All right?

Now I'm guessing
you don't have yours.

You going to sh**t me, Al?

Course not.

I love you, mate.

And I'm so sorry that
I let you down.

The only person you let down
is yourself.

You trying to tell me that if
your Niamh or Shay got into

any kind of trouble, you wouldn't
do exactly the same?

I'm a decent guy, all right?

I'm the same guy I have
always been!

Only now, you're sleeping
with my wife.

You told me time and time again

that it was over between
you and Siobhan.

And you know what, Finn,
I didn't mean to, but...

..I fell in love with her. Yeah,
well, she doesn't feel the same way.

If I go to prison, you know full
well what they'll do to me in there.

A police officer?

I'm better off dead. Hmm.

You should have done your duty.

And now I'm going to have to
do mine.

Duty?

Remember that horrible squat
on the Antrim Road in 2004?

Hmm?

You were tasked with the search,

and you missed three grands'
worth of heroin.

That's not the same thing.

Who covered for you?

Hmm?

I saved your career that day, Finn.

I saved you.

Why can't you do the same for me?

Where is Marlene?!

She's got other fish to fry.

What could be more important
than finding out whether or not

she's carrying our child?
Oh, maybe some...

Nothing! Obviously.

Er, time's up.

It's negative.

How do you feel, love?

Confused.

Well, I'd convinced myself
that I didn't want a baby,

and then after talking to Tammy,
then I wasn't so sure.

You know what to do.

Will you want to try again?

I wouldn't have thought so.

I think I've been making Marlene's
life a misery these last few months.

Where's Tammy?

Mum had to go.

She told me to give you this.

Dear, Clint and Nicole.

You may not want a baby.

But I know you want to be parents.

Clint's ma's been getting
worse of late,

so the time has come to share
the load.

That's why I'm gifting you my JJ.

He's not too fond of soap.

But seems to have stopped
setting things on fire.

Have fun.

Tam-Tam.

How long will you be staying?

You wanted a kid.

Here I am.

SIRENS WAIL

Where is he?

He's on that boat!

He pulled his g*n on me.

What, and you didn't pursue?
Did you hear what I said?!

He threatened to sh**t me!

Stop the boat! Armed police!

Armed police!

Police! Stop the boat!

Stop!

Police, get down! Armed police!

Turn around and put your hands up!

That's not him.

Uniform Uniform Trojan 5-4.

There's no trace of the suspect.

You told me he was on that boat.

I thought he was! Finn.

I know you and Al go back
a long way.

Did you give him a second chance?

Finn, please will you tell me
the truth?!

Did you let Al go?!
