03x14 - Episode 14

[bunniefuu]

That lighthouse was built from the
world famous Ballymountain limestone

and the construction of it was
financed by a local dignitary,

Sir Horatio Devine.

In fact, he has a descendant
still living in the town.

She runs The Commodore
bar, where we were earlier.

Now if yous would all like to
head towards the lighthouse,

I'll let you in and you can
see how everything works.

Word is you conducted the opening
ceremony, Constable Pettigrew.

Well, well, well.

Aidan Hunter.

Yeah, I'd heard you'd
moved back here.

Yes, indeed.

I'm going to retire here.

I'm going to fix up
my dad's old place.

I've even bought a boat.

A boat? Mm-hm.

I've called it The
Janine, after my...

late wife.

Where the hell is it?

Oddly enough, I saw a white yacht
by that name just pulling out there,

a few minutes ago.

Are you telling me my brand-new
boat's just been stolen?

Well, if it has...

don't you think you should,
er, call the police?

The local inspector no less.

You going to find these thieves?

A boat's been stolen
in broad daylight.

We take that kind of thing
very seriously in Port Devine.

You saw it heading
out of the harbour?

Ach, I just got a glimpse
of it, that's all.

OK, right, well, I'll see
if I can find any witnesses,

chase up the CCTV. OK.

Any idea how they
got it started? No.

The keys are in the drawer
at my dad's old place.

OK. Let's go and see if
they're there, yeah? Sure.

Finn, can I have a wee word?

Are you sure this is wise?

I've just found out that
Aidan Hunter is my father,

so I need to know what
kind of a guy he is.

Promise me you're not going
to do anything stupid.

Like what?

Like telling him you're his son.

Inspector...

Tell you what, Taylor, if you
really want to get to know someone,

go on holiday with
them. Marlene can be...

so pernickety.

Whereas you... Oh, I can
get along with anybody.

Present company excluded.

Excuse me, Taylor, something's
making me feel queasy.

Er, we need to sort the bed in
that spare room. It's a k*ller.

If you want to speak to me, you
can do so through my lawyers.

Seriously?! That woman!

Look, I never said
I wanted a divorce.

Half of everything. What's
Nicole supposed to think?

Well, it's not what I meant
though, is it? Sort it.

Otherwise I'm getting another
job. You two are doing my head in.

You've got to be kidding me.

Aidan. Don't touch anything.

Police! Anyone here?!

Where are these
keys? Top drawer.

Looks like your boat
keys have been stolen.

Which will explain the mystery of
how they got the engine started.

Who's that?

Malachy Flynn.

He died nearly 40 years ago.

Some people round here
think I was to blame.

Whoever broke in here
left that photograph.

We were robbing a house.
Malachy fell off the roof.

I told him not to go up
there, but Malachy was crazy.

"Stay out of Port Devine."

Somebody's clearly
still angry with you.

Any idea who that might be?

He might still have
some family around here.

It was all so long ago.

Why did you come back?

I mean, there were plenty of other
places you could have retired to.

I was born in Port Devine, Finn.

Besides my mother-in-law
is still here.

Bernie O'Rourke?

Bernie's your mother-in-law?

Fearsome, isn't she?

Tough as nails, that one.

First you arrest
my son, now this.

Maybe you were right, I should
never have come back to Port Devine.

What's happened? I've been
the victim of a hit-and-run.

Did you get a look at the driver?
No. It all happened so fast.

OK, I'll call this one in,
Sarge. Er, yeah, cheers.

RADIO SQUELCHES
Papa Delta 8-2...

How was our honeymoon?

Erm, I hear Nicole
Devine took my place.

Yeah, it was, er... intense.

Yeah, I can imagine.

That woman is something else.

Sorry. She is your best friend.

No. It's...

Are you able to get me a crime
number for the insurance?

Yeah, I am indeed. But
listen, I'll do one better.

I'll find out who did this.

Thanks, but I don't want
any special treatment

just because you and
I nearly got married.

No, well...

Right... Yeah. Yeah.

Copy that.

Maybe it's for the best.

What do you mean?
Ash moving away.

ENGINE STARTS

What are you talking about?

She got a buyer
for the dairy farm.

Ash is leaving Port Devine.

Oh.

So how did Aidan Hunter
react to the photo?

He was seriously freaked out.

You know what - I think there
are some Flynns that have a farm

up on Coast Road. But, I don't know
if they're related to this Malachy.

I'll check it out.
Cheers, Callum.

Er, Sarge? Mm-hm?

I've got a match on
that partial reg.

It's a white estate car
registered to Faye Arthurs.

Faye Arthurs? I thought we were
looking for some teenage joyrider.

What are you
investigating, Marlene?

Er, failure to stop at
the scene of an accident.

Anybody else involved?

Ash.

Right, cub, shall we go and
pay Faye Arthurs a wee visit?

I take it Marlene doesn't
know about you two yet.

Erm, I haven't had time to tell
her yet, so, yeah, I haven't...

Yeah. Too scared, more like.

Well, look, keep it
amongst ourselves for now.

The last thing Marlene needs is to
watch you playing happy couples.

OK, thank you very much.

Well?

The neighbour, she
says she only sees Faye

when she picks up her post.

Picks up her post?

So where's Faye living then?

I mean, maybe she's
got herself a fella?

The neighbour says we should
speak to Bernie O'Rourke.

Apparently her and
Faye are best friends.

Really? I'd have thought those
two were chalk and cheese.

Well, Bernie might be able to tell
us where Faye is living. Yeah.

Right. Let's call round
to Bernie's. All right.

You must have had some
fun. You were in Ibiza!

Well, it was a bit of a
wash-out, to be honest.

Marlene kept going on about how she
was supposed to be on honeymoon.

It kind of k*lled the
holiday vibe. I can imagine.

It was the holiday of
a lifetime, Taylor.

I have never had more fun!

Dancing, drinking, more dancing.

Sun, sea... Oh, and plenty
of the other S-word.

Sangria?

Yes, there was plenty of
that but... She means sex.

Yes, I do. I was fighting
them off with a stick!

Oh, that's not like you, is it?

To be fighting them off, I mean.

Welcome to the Fun Palace.
What can I get you?

Well, I'll, er...

I'll just have a wee cup of
tea and a biscuit for now.

But later on, I might try one
of Clint's delicious c*ck.

Er, excuse me.

We don't do c*ck!

They were very popular.
And very reasonable.

Oh, so you've been giving
away my stock for nothing?

OUR stock. Oh, yes.

Have you heard this, Barry?

Half of this place is Clint's.

Never mind the fact that my mummy
and daddy built it up from nothing.

We might as well put the
for sale sign up now. Why?

Well, what else are we going
to do when we're divorced?

Build a wall straight down the
middle? I don't want a divorce.

I don't have time
for your mind games!

I've got much more
pressing things to do.

Mind games? You're the
one that's lost your mind.

And forgotten your wedding vows.

Here, does that mean
that c*ck are off?

Don't ask me, Barry!

As I am constantly reminded,
this place belongs to Nicole.

Barry.

Well, did you find
your dad's boat yet?

Not yet. No. Can I ask
you something else?

Sure. Do you remember
Malachy Flynn?

That scoundrel.
God rest his soul.

Why would you be asking
about Malachy Flynn, now?

If it wasn't something to
do with Aidan Hunter...

Because I tell you,
as far as I remember,

Hunter's fingerprints were
all over that lad's death.

Faye Arthur's car, parked in
Bernie O'Rourke's driveway.

Yup. Dark green paint.

Matching Ash's vehicle.

Looks like we've found
our failure to stop. Yeah.

Hello? Police!

Mrs Arthurs?

Let's take a look round
the back. All right.

Faye? Faye!

It's open.

Faye! Faye can you hear me?

She's breathing. Call
an ambulance, now. Yeah.

Papa Delta 8-2 to
control - over.

Papa Delta 8-2 to control,

requesting an urgent
ambulance at the address 1-0-4

that's 104 Shore Road, we have
an unconscious female - over.

Received. Faye, come on.

Faye stay with me.

Sarge?

Is Faye going to be OK?

I don't know, cub.

The paramedics think she might have
some kind of underlying condition.

Come here.

Is that your man, Hunter?

Aye, it is actually.

Looks like he was married
to Bernie's daughter.

The daughter died
a few years ago.

It's funny, though,
isn't it? What?

Like, I don't think I
heard the name Aidan Hunter

until a couple of days ago...

and now he is literally
everywhere we turn. Hmm.

Yup.

What's the big emergency?

You should never have
come back to Port Devine.

Oh, so what's happened now?

Aidan Hunter's
boat's been stolen.

And Finn is heading
up the investigation.

Which for an officer of
his rank is most irregular.

It's all getting too
close for comfort.

Barry, what you and I did to Aidan,
that was a very, very long time ago.

You think he's forgiven you?

Because I'm damn sure
he hasn't forgotten

that it was your evidence
that put him inside.

Evidence I passed to you.

Anyway, it's all water
under the bridge.

I have a really bad feeling

that something terrible's
going to happen.

You always were glass
half empty, Barry.

Hello, Assumpta.

Hello, Aidan.

It's been one hell
of a long time.

It certainly has.

You look amazing.

Well, thank you.

You don't look so bad yourself.

Can I offer to buy
you some lunch?

Both of you. I don't think
that'd be a good idea.

That... would be lovely.

Thank you, Aidan.

Sarge.

Thanks, cub.

How's Faye getting on?

I don't know.

The doctor's with her now.

Oh, any joy tracking
down Bernie O'Rourke?

I sourced her mobile number
but she's not answering. OK.

Sarge, do you reckon Faye
is living at Bernie's place?

Do you not think that's a
bit of a funny arrangement?

Not if they're a couple.

Yeah, I had a look around
the house and, uh...

I just can't believe I
didn't think of that.

Two women living
happily ever after.

Is that so hard to imagine, cub?

Do you know who
that is over there?

The guy sitting by
Barry and Assumpta?

Erm, never seen him before.

I'm presuming you know
that it was down to me

that you got sent to prison.

Well, you fleeing the country
was a pretty big clue.

You want to know if I
still harbour a grudge.

If I'm dead set on revenge.

Well, are you?

No, I deserved to go to prison.

If it hadn't been
you giving evidence,

it would have been
someone else. That's...

That's very magnanimous of you.

Well, time is a great healer.

Mind you, I wasn't quite
so forgiving in the '80s.

But getting on that plane,
it was the right thing to do.

So, I've answered your question,
now you can answer mine.

What has brought you back here,
all the way from Fort Lauderdale?

I just, you know, wanted
to see the old place again.

One last time, before I
shuffle off this mortal coil.

AIDAN LAUGHS Nonsense.

You're in your prime.

Did I hear your
sister moved away?

Yes.

Poor old Assumpta, eh?

No family ties left here now.

None at all.

I've tracked down
Malachy Flynn's brothers.

And it couldn't have been them who
broke into Aidan's place today.

Why not?

Because one of them is
in a retirement home

and the other one was
with him all morning.

Celebrating his 90th birthday.

Well, that'll do it.

So, who else would
remember Malachy Flynn?

Well, I've got an idea.

I found something interesting
in the archive. Take a look.

This is Malachy's mum
- she's passed away.

But the woman next to
her is Bernie O'Rourke.

Aidan Hunter's
mother-in-law? Yup.

So, they were sisters?

So, Bernie O'Rourke
was Malachy's aunt.

Has Marlene had any
luck tracking her down?

Er, not that I know of.

Why? What are you thinking?

BARRY: Assumpta, there's
your friend, Siobhan.

Can you excuse me a moment?

Hey, who's that?

That is Aidan Hunter.

Finn's father? Keep
your voice down!

Aidan doesn't know. And if Finn has
any sense, he'll keep it that way.

Oh. He's dishy, isn't he?

I can see why you fell for him.

He had a certain bad boy
allure at the time, I admit.

And now?

I saw the way he
was looking at you.

Oh, now don't be ridiculous.

I wouldn't go near Aidan Hunter if
he was the last man on the planet.

Really? If you say so, Assumpta.

So that's him. He's
my grandfather?

Sure is.

That-that's...
that's weird. I know.

But we promised your dad
we'd say or do nothing.

It's up to him if he wants
to make contact, not us.

Hmm, but he's right
there, so... Listen.

You - that - zip it.

OK? OK.

Huh.

I'll keep you posted,
see what I can find out.

OK, Boss.

Hi.

Hello, Marlene. Well...

So, what's going on?

The medical staff won't tell
me what's wrong with you.

I'd rather not talk
about it, Marlene.

Is that OK?

Yeah. Of course.

Do you mind if I...

Be my guest.

I'm sorry about this
morning, hitting the car.

I wasn't feeling very well.

What were you thinking getting
behind the wheel of a car

in the first place?

Stuff to sort out.

OK.

So am I right in saying that you're
living with Bernie O'Rourke now?

Aye.

I've been cleaning
for Bernie for years.

She reckons it's cheaper to
cook for two than it is for one.

The... arrangement
suits us both.

We've been looking
for Bernie everywhere.

Called her mobile,
left messages.

Don't suppose you
know where she is?

Not a clue.

OK, because she would want to know,
wouldn't she? That you're here?

I suppose.

And, I mean...

you're not just her
lodger, are you, Faye?

I heard about your wedding.

Mm-hm. The wedding
that didn't happen?

We loved each other.

Just not enough.

But the one thing that
wasn't the problem

was the fact that
we were two women.

Nobody's supposed to know.

Bernie would go ballistic

if she knew we were even
having this conversation.

Are you sure you don't
know where she is?

Absolutely.

Erm, do you remember a young
lad called Malachy Flynn?

Mates with Aidan Hunter.

He-he died a load of
years back. He, erm...

Can you fetch the
nurse, Marlene?

I'm not feeling very well.

Yeah. Er, yeah. Sure.

Take that.

The CCTV from the
harbour is finally in,

if you want to take a
look. Er, yeah, let's see.

You can see the fella that
stole Aidan Hunter's boat.

Here, so that's him there.

In the light blue anorak.

Hmm. I can't see his face.

Er, what about those
tourists there.

They were taking photographs.

Yeah, I suppose Barry might know
where they're headed to next.

There we are.

I see you're sitting with,
er, Barry and Assumpta.

Are you an old friend of theirs?

You could say that.

Er, Aidan Hunter.
I was born here.

Nicole Devine.

Gosh, you must have
been gone a long time.

I thought I knew everyone
in Port Devine. Long enough.

Not as long as
Assumpta, mind you.

Oh, sure, she was only a
slip of a girl when she left.

Yeah. It's quite something to
see her back after all this time.

I can't imagine staying away.

If I had a child here, gosh.

Of course. She had a child.

How's that going? Oh, well,
it's been a huge adjustment.

Sure, Finn has spent his entire life
thinking that Concepta was his mother.

And it turns out it
was Assumpta all along.

You're right.

It is something to
get your head around.

Mr Hunter.

Nicole.

I'm looking for Barry.

He's over here, come with me.

You haven't been right all day.

Oof, all week.

I had assumed it was the
food from the holiday but...

Oh, Taylor...

I think I might be pregnant.

You think, or you know?

Well, I've bought
a pregnancy test,

but I haven't had a
chance to do it yet.

OK, er, if you are pregnant,

would it be Clint's or is there a
chance it could be Callum's? Oof.

What are you two
gossiping about?

Nothing. You mind
your own business.

Those tourists
that were with me,

I mean, they're all staying
up at The Devine Lodge.

You know, Dot Harper's B&B.

Yeah. OK. Thanks, Barry.

You think they caught
the thief on camera?

Well, that's what I'm hoping.

I wish you the best of
luck finding The Janine.

It cost me a pretty
penny. I'd like her back.

It's good to see
you again, Assumpta.

Barry. I have to run.

Old friends, are you?

Er, aye, something like that.

Nothing like that.

The man's a menace.

While we're quiet,
why don't you...

Well, you're right.

They're definitely
up to something.

Take my advice, Shay.

Never get married.

KNOCK AT DOOR Hiya!

Hi. So, look, Faye is
definitely hiding something.

As soon as I mentioned Malachy
Flynn she suddenly became "unwell".

Marlene, do we really
believe that Bernie O'Rourke

broke into Aidan's house
to steal his boat keys?

I don't know, she's always
been a feisty one, like.

Well, why would she
leave the photograph?

A smokescreen?

PHONE RINGS

Callum. What's happening?

I know who stole
Aidan Hunter's boat.

Was it the mother-in-law?

Yeah. It was. One of the
tourists caught her on camera.

The bad news is, Aidan
got to them before me.

Yeah, I opened my big
mouth in front of him

when I was asking Barry
about the tourists.

Don't beat yourself up about it,
son. Just get back here, yeah.

OK.

You were right.

Bernie O'Rourke stole the boat.

OK. So do we have any
idea where she's headed?

Well...

The last sighting of The
Janine was over an hour ago

so it might not even be at sea.

But if we start up at Bull
Point, if it's not there,

we'll just keep working
our way south. Yeah.

What's going on?

I'm pregnant.

I have imagined this
moment so many times.

Me too.

The last time you
and I slept together?

The day that you
got out of prison.

And, er, with Callum?

Later the same night.

I've been trying to get
you pregnant for ages.

Years. With no success.

So this baby...

Could it be Callum's?

Yes.

Yes, it could.

DOOR OPENS

Well, erm, thank you,
that's very flattering.

Is it OK if I take a
minute to think about it?

Yeah, yeah, don't worry.
I won't take too long.

OK, yeah, thanks again.

All right, bye-bye.

You got offered the
job in Belfast. Yeah.

Specialist Crime Operations.

I just, er, I didn't
think that I would get it.

That's great news. Is it?

When I put in for
this transfer, Callum,

me and you, we were...

Well, we were finished.

How can I move to Belfast now?

You can't give up an opportunity
like that, not for my sake.

Yeah?

So, then, what do we do?

SIRENS WAIL

VOICES RAISED IN ARGUMENT

Marlene!

Aidan!

Aidan! Get your hands off her!

How many times do I have to tell
you?! Get away from that woman!

What are you doing you stupid...

She's a vulnerable
woman! Vulnerable?!

Her? She stole the boat!

That does NOT give you
an excuse to as*ault her!

Bernie, Bernie, look at me.

Where's your phone?

I dropped it into the sea.

Like a total eejit.

OK, Bernie, I have to tell
you that Faye is in hospital.

Is she all right?

You know she's got cancer.

She just took a bad turn.

And I've been waiting
here like a lemon.

Can I see her, Marlene?

Erm, yeah, we'll try
and arrange that.

But first, Bernie, I am
going to have to arrest you

for stealing that boat.

Sorry.

Bernie O'Rourke, I'm
arresting you for theft...

This place must bring
back memories, Finn.

Yeah.

Bad ones.

Do you ever wonder where Al is?

Like, how's he managing to live?

He'll get caught. They all do.

And when he does, he's going
down for a very long time.

It's mad. Like, you
two were best mates.

Were we, Marlene?

Makes you wonder, like.

Do you ever really know someone?

Yeah.

So what was the plan?

Steal the boat keys.

Plant the photo
as a distraction.

Faye drove me to the pier.

She was supposed to lock up the
house up, gather the bags up

and drive to Bull Point.
But she never arrived.

Last night, Faye told me
her cancer is terminal.

She might only have a few
weeks, so I had to act fast.

It's on her bucket
list you see -

to sail round Ireland.

I need to give that
to her before she...

Was it just the two of you?

I can sail a boat
as well as any man.

Kept one at Bull
Point for years,

until I couldn't
afford it any longer.

I'm assuming that's how
Aidan knew where to find me.

Why didn't you just ask Aidan,
could you borrow his boat?

Because he'd have asked
all sorts of questions.

I couldn't have him finding
out about me and Faye.

Why? Is he h*m*?

No.

Because he would have
called me a hypocrite.

After my daughter died, I gave Aidan
a hard time about going on dates.

Told him he should
honour Janine's memory,

like I honoured the
memory of my Stan.

Then I met Faye.

If she wanted the boat, why
didn't she just ask me for it?

Bernie didn't want you to know who
she was planning to sail on it with.

You mean her secret
girlfriend, Faye?

I wasn't born yesterday.

I guessed about
those two ages ago.

And you're OK with
them being a couple?

Of course.

Why wouldn't I want
anybody to be happy?

What happened to Faye, anyway?

How come she didn't
show up at Bull Point?

Faye's in hospital.

She's got terminal cancer.

I need to apologise.

To you - the police.

When I reported the boat
stolen, I made a mistake.

I'd completely forgotten that
I'd promised my mother-in-law

Bernie O'Rourke that she'd have
the boat any time she fancied.

So?

The test is positive.

I'm pregnant.

And Clint knows.

Whoa.

Well, he also knows that
Callum could be the father.

Double wow.

How does he feel about that?

You tell me.

Oh, congratulations.

Here's someone to see you now.

Love!

It's all right.
Aidan knows about us.

And he didn't go ballistic?

I've gotten over the shock.

Listen, if you're
feeling up to it,

I want you two to take the boat
and sail wherever you fancy.

That's good of you.

Yous are lucky I don't
charge the lot of yous

with wasting police time.

Thank you, Finn.

I know I haven't always
been the best son-in-law.

But I hope you'll let me do whatever
I can to help both you and Faye.

We don't need your help.

But we'll be glad to
accept it just the same.

You were trying
to get hold of me?

Erm, yeah, so we found
out who hit your car.

As promised.

One thing about you Marlene,
you're very good at your job.

Yeah, so, the lady
responsible is erm...

She's very sick.
Terminal cancer.

That's why she was
driving so erratically.

Ach, I'm sorry to hear that.

Look, I don't need to
press charges or whatever.

Well, no, she has insurance and
all, so you should get sorted out.

No. Tell her not to worry.

Please.

OK.

So, erm, I hear
you're selling up.

Yeah, I'm going travelling.

Australia first. Mm-hm.

No, I'm, I'm pleased.

That I'll be out
of your hair? No.

That you're doing something
you really want to do.

I'm so glad I met you, Ash.

Even if we weren't forever.

Me too, Sergeant.

Come here.

Hey, Nicole.

Happy to see me?

Always.

Erm, look, I know things have
been tricky between us since we...

Yes. They have.

Erm, which is why I wanted
you to be the first to know.

Me and Jo, we're
moving to Belfast.

Together.

Are you sure about this?

They're crying out for
officers in Belfast.

I'll get a transfer no bother.

If you want me to?

I mean, yeah, of course I do.

Well then, I've
never been surer.

Er, What on earth?

How long has this been going on?

Ages.

I've been so scared
of telling you.

And then the longer it went on,
the angrier I thought you'd be.

Why? Why would I be angry?

Oh, because of the great
Marlene-and-Ash disaster?

I've only ever wanted
the best for you, Callum.

You see, I told you
Marlene would be cool.

And, erm, there's
something else.

We're moving to Belfast.

Look, I can't say I'm
happy about that. Erm...

I'm going to really miss you.

I'm so happy.

Give us a hug.

Can I have a word?

What?

This, er... This baby...

We've been wanting
this for years.

I know.

It's everything we
ever dreamed of.

You heard Callum.

He's moving to Belfast. So...

he doesn't have to know.

Aidan.

How are Bernie and Faye?

It's difficult for them.

I mean, what Faye has to go through,
knowing how it's going to end.

Sure.

Look, erm...

There's something
I want to tell you.

Well, I hope you're going

officer as a son?

I couldn't be happier.

Come here, kid.
