01x02 - Bad Batch

[bunniefuu]

Two more months of probation left.
How do you feel it's going?

Tommy, I heard you have
to do the firearms test again.

I hated my probation period.

JONTY: Constable Conlon, you need to
turn on your bodycam every time.

Now his solicitor's down there,

pulling at threads,
and it's working.

HELEN: McIntyre and his entire
family are persons of significant
interest

to our colleagues in the
Paramilitary Crime Task Force.

They're undercover, son.
Sneaky beakies.

Angela, listen to me. Angela!

You're a brave wee peeler,
aren't you?

The call sign going into Carrick
View.

Out of bounds.
Get them out of there!

They're taking him away from me!

JOSEPH: Release Angela Mackle
from your custody.

She's out of bounds to the police.

Angela?

I'm going to drive you home.

Are you mad?

Well done.

Annie, you coming out on Saturday?

Monica, I'm working tomorrow.

Och, Annie, it's our big
team night out.

Sorry. I can't, like.

Girls! Well done, great game.
Well done.

Are you out of your mind?

Well, it was raining.

So you gave her a lift home?
Well, not all the way.

She should never have
been released.

She should have been referred
to psychiatric services.

And that is none of your business.

Well, she needs
a psychiatric assessment.

STEVE: Grace...

And you are aware that the area
is OOB, out of bounds?

Yes, I know that.

You clearly don't, because if
you did, you wouldn't have

went near the place, or her.

From now on, all of
Carrick View is out of bounds.

Angela Mackle is OOB.

But an individual can't be OOB.

Grace.

Can I just ask how you knew?
I'm sorry?

How did you know
that I gave her a lift?

Well, Constable Ellis,

if you'd like to make it
through your probation period,

you can add that
to the very long list

of things that are
none of your business.

You know how Kris Kristofferson
got his first recording deal?

He landed a helicopter

in Johnny Cash's front garden
and asked him to listen

The ba*ls on him!

Brilliant.

Is that who
we're listening to now?

Kris Kristofferson?

You mean you don't know

You know, thanks. Thanks for
sticking up for me in there.

You want me to stick up for you

You drove your own car into
Carrick View. I mean, f*ck me!

What does he mean, she's OOB?

Out of bounds. Did you miss that
lecture at Garnerville?

No. No, I was at the lecture
where they said

a street or an area could be
OOB for security reasons,

but never a person.

What's going on, Stevie?

It's above my paygrade, Grace.

And if it's above mine,
it's definitely above yours.

SIREN WAILS

Hey! Let him go.

Police! I said let him go.

What are you playing at, Happy?
Come on.

All right.

We can take it from here.
We're pressing charges.

Is that right? Aye.

If I have a look at that CCTV
footage, there's no chance

he could make a claim
for excessive use of force?

Don't you darken
this door again. Yeah?

Enough.

I got you.

HE SOBS

Are we arresting him?

HE MURMURS

Course we're not arresting him.

Mind your head.

He just needs to get
his head together, that's all.

Scrappin' on the street.

GERRY SIGHS

It's not like you.

What's the matter wi' you, Happy?

The anniversary, Gerry.

And I can't...

You know, I...

I needed to be somewhere
with people,

you know, not...not be on my own.

And I just thought...

Yeah. If I got arrested...

Here.

Promise me... Get some grub in.

Get into the house.
Get your head down.

Don't you speak to me

You mean my da's house?

DOORBELL RINGS

Come on, we've got a problem.

Don't be telling anybody
you saw me doing this.

Any cops in the family?

No.

What do they do, your folks?

They're academics at Queen's.

So you'd be the black sheep, then?

So why are you doing this?

Well, I studied criminology
at university.

I wanted to see if the same
academic concepts apply

to day-to-day policing.

You know? Like...

...anthropological, sociological,

even psychological.

You know, can you see
the same patterns on the ground

that the theories predict?

You're joking? No.

There is some stuff

Those little blue pills

and some white powder.

Did you touch it?

No, we aren't allowed
to touch the medicine.

It's dangerous.

No. We don't need to know.

This is a f*cking disaster!

You get it from the usual place?

The Dublin lads. Yeah.
They have absolutely f*cked us!

How many batches have gone out?

It's all gone out, Da.

But look,
there's something else, yeah?

Some of it's turned up
way outside of our area.

Right down South Belfast.
Malone Road.

The university area, too.

What? How the f*ck?

I don't... I don't know.

The peelers
aren't going to let this go!

They'll be all over us by teatime.

This is the last thing I need

The last f*cking thing!

McAllister needs to be in on this.
He needs to be all over this.

McAllister? The solicitor?

We can get it back.

At least some of it, anyway.

I...

I keep a record of the drop-offs

and how much goes out,
dates and amounts.

You f*cking what?

It's all right, it's all in code.
Code?

There's no names.

It's just to keep me right
in case you ever thought...

In case I ever thought you were

Don't you care about that?

About what happens to those kids?

Yeah, I care
that we got there in time

to stop their mummy

But that's it. Because
guess what? That's my job.

I'm...

..a bucket man.

A bucket man?

Yeah.

OK. Come on. Enlighten me.

Society is this big,
Olympic-sized swimming pool.

Mm-hm. But it's not full of water.

It's full of sh*t.

And we all live underneath it.

But unfortunately, the pool's
all cracked and broken

and the sh*t keeps pouring down.

And every time the sh*t runs out,

I go there with my bucket...

..I catch the sh*t,

I patch it up with
a little bit of masking tape.

Hopefully that holds
the sh*t in for a little while.

Then I run on to the next crack

with my bucket and catch more sh*t.

And then they pay me
at the end of the month.

I'm a bucket man.

Phew.

I'm covered in oatmeal.

Jonty wants to see you
in his office.

Why?

Come on. I'll come with you.

I'm sorry. Um, I don't understand.

I know this must come as a shock,

but considering your background,
it's not entirely unexpected.

This can happen from time to time.

When you say a personal threat,

is that like...?

This...information
filters down to us

from our colleagues
in the intelligence services.

Usually it's electronic chatter.

Somebody mentions something
in a phone call

or an email or a text.

Mentions they want to k*ll me?

Who?

We don't get that level
of information,

but we think it's a dissident
Republican threat.

So what should I do, then?

Take sensible precautions.
Keep checking under your car.

If you're stationary in traffic,

leave half a car length
before the car in front,

so you can exit at speed, and
try to vary your route to work.

Is that it?

Like, I do all those things
anyway.

Is there nothing else
you can offer me?

Like, no other protection, or...?

If the threat was more specific
and imminent,

we would move you from your house.

But for now, we're just saying
be security aware.

Look, most of what you need
to know is in there.

TYPING

G... What?

Just saying hello.

Has anyone ever told you you've an
exceptional pair of t*ts?

Has anyone ever told you
you are a dirty old b*stard?

Just you.

Go on, piss off.
Let me do my work.

Could she not... What?

..report you for saying stuff
like that?

I think that's very unlikely,
isn't it?

All right. What is it?

You have a face on you
like a smacked arse.

I can't...

You can't what?

I can't sh**t.

What do you mean, you can't sh**t?

You have to pass the range test

to graduate at Garnerville,
don't you?

OK. How bad are you?

I got 22 out of 50.

I have to take the test again
in a few weeks.

If I don't get 40 or over,
I'm gone.

I'm not going to pass, Gerry.

Come on.

INDISTINCT CHATTER

Hey. You all right? Grand, yeah.

How's Stevie Neil, man of mystery?

What do you mean?

Well, how can you be in a job
for, what, over ten years,

nobody knows anything about him?

He's not even on social media,
like.

Maybe he thinks people care.

Quite a few OOBs today.

That's all of Carrick View,
it's the whole estate.

That's half our district.

Yeah, well,
we live in interesting times.

OK, folks, from what I can tell,
it looks like we've got a bad batch.

Pregabalin,

we think,
mixed with God knows what.

We've had four unconscious
this afternoon and one dead.

Gerry?

Blue capsules, as usual.

But the powder inside them
is darker than usual.

It's a kind of off-yellow.

Knocking people for six.

Bottom line is, if you see
anybody unconscious,

you'd better start
screaming for paramedics.

This stuff is toxic.

Stevie?

We had a couple flaked out
up in Cavehill View.

Same tablets.

So...they must be everywhere.

OK, folks, have a look
over your CPR manuals

if you're not up to speed.
Use a mouth guard if you can.

Don't want you catching anything
you haven't already got.

Which file and which court?
Brennan, the domestic.

The mags.

Brennan, common as*ault.

So let me get this straight.

We have a city flooded
with a bad batch,

we're already short-staffed,
and you want to sit on your arse

in a warm office
doing paperwork on a case

that won't even go custodial

because the husband
refuses to make a statement?

No. I... Save it for someone
who gives a sh*t, Jen.

You're 70 with Constable Conlon.

And Jen...

..stay safe.

Oi.

JP...

We need your stuff back.

We need it back.

You what?

24 packets of blues and all the

We need it back now.

I sold it.

To who?

Well, why don't you tell us
who you sold it to?

And we'll go and get it back.

I can't remember.

It's you, isn't it?

What's me?

That's a nice scooter.

Hmm?

How much did that cost? Hey?
How much did that cost?

I just... I just... I just...

We've got punters keeling over

Way outside our patch.

Have you been dealing off base?

Have you been dealing off base?

You are in big, big trouble,

Constable Conlon.

Annie.

I'm sorry that this has happened
so early in your career,

but you will get through this.

I'm not worried about myself.
It's my mum.

Maybe it's time you left home.

What?

Look, I could stand here
and bullshit you,

but maybe for your peace of mind,

maybe you move somewhere
less exposed.

It happened to me.

They raided a dissident
Republican house in Derry

about six years ago.

My name was on a list.
My address, too.

And did you move?

I did, yeah.

I was married at the time.

My ex, Declan, he worked in a bank.

And over time, it became
too much for him to take.

That constant worry, checking
under your car every morning.

Hypervigilance, they call it.

Did you ever consider
leaving the job?

No. No. And neither should you.

So they'll bring the new stuff.
Then we can get that out again.

And how are we supposed to do that?

Don't you worry about it.

HE SIGHS

Do you remember Happy from earlier?

Yeah.

Well, this is back in the '70s.

Happy's about...

..eight or nine years old.

So, one Friday night he goes
to the fish and chip shop...

..with his da and his big brother

and his wee mate from school.

So Happy and his mate,

they stay in the back of the
car parked down the street

and they watch the dad and
the big brother go into the chippy.

And then...

..they watch a car that's parked
outside the chippy explode...

..and blow everyone..

..in the shop to bits...

..including the da
and the big brother.

Car b*mb.

I know.

I was the wee lad that was with him.

There's enough bad things in life
that'll come looking for you, son.

You don't need
to go looking for them.

How are you, love?

Nice holiday?

I need a favour.

Don't f*ck this up.

What happened yesterday
was an accident,

because of some

Unfortunately, there was
a misunderstanding,

and my wife and I ingested
too much of it.

Mm-hm.

So yous both have
the same prescription?

And yous both took too much
of it at the same time?

If you'd like a detailed
description of what happened,

then perhaps you can ask your
superiors to send a detective

and they can speak
to my clients under caution.

Look, I recommend you all
go back about your business.

I mean, there must be
real criminals to catch.

You'd probably know more
about that than we would.

Class 1 pharmaceuticals

is an automatic referral
to child protection services,

and that referral
has already been made.

Your children will stay
with their aunt

until you've been interviewed
by a social worker,

and that interview has been
scheduled to happen on Monday.

No. You told us this would not...
This is outrageous.

The decision
of the social worker

on the future welfare of
your children depends significantly

upon my statement as the first
attending officer at the scene.

And that's not just what I saw,
but my inferences from that.

My opinion.

Would you like to hear my opinion?

You are going to regret this...
Shut up! Just shut up!

I should never have let you
talk me into this.

Go on.

Go on, please.

OK. Well, this is obviously
off the record.

Mrs Corrigan, I think
that you and your husband

are addicted to opioids,

and I think that that addiction
is severely impacting

your children's welfare.

Those two little girls yesterday,

they were so shaken.

And if this happens again,

you are risking your children
being taken into care.

And that is why I have made
some recommendations

to the social worker
who will visit you on Monday.

I urge you to adhere
to those conditions.

One, you enter into
a drug rehabilitation scheme.

Two, you agree to regular
random drug tests.

And three, you submit
to unannounced visits

from social services. OK?

Yeah, we can... We can do that.

We can do it.

Yeah. We can.

MARTIN SIGHS

Right.

Sir?

You should take this chance, OK?

Cos it's probably the only one
you're going to get.

All right.

Oh, I...

..I played Drumstewart
a couple of times.

It's shite.

Grip. Both thumbs forward.

No, both thumbs forward.

That's right.

Stance.

OFFICER LAUGHS

Now, keep your sights level.

At the bottom of the breath...

..you're going to squeeze
the trigger softly...

..and slowly.

Go ahead.

Holster your weapon.
Do not touch it.

Stay there.

Oh, here we go.

Ooh.

You're for it now.

All right. What's so funny?
Oh, come on, Gerry.

No, no, no. What's the joke?
The kid's a disaster.

He's not going to make it.
He's not a police officer.

You know it, I know it.

Well, I'm his tutor.
That's my call.

And it's my call about putting him

out in the street with a g*n on his
hip. There's no way.

Would you say I was a good shot?

Not bad.

Hmm.

Well, back in the day, I wasn't
much better than he is now.

He'll get where he needs to be.

His test's in three weeks.
Knock yourself out.

OK. Well...

..we're going to be spending
a lot of time in here,

and I'd appreciate it if you guys
didn't take the piss out of him.

OK?

Thank you.

Unholster your g*n.

Aim.

Fire.

Better.

OK, the Dublin lads say
this new stuff's top quality.

We need all of it
back out there tonight.

Police.

Someone just shot at my house.

SIREN CHIRPS

Straight through.

CID.

I thought this place was OOB.

Not for shots fired.
Then we come.

Yeah. But who'd sh**t at the house
of James McIntyre's wife?

Estranged wife, apparently.

But, yeah, your point stands.
Who would?

Oh, you cheeky, cheeky b*stards.

What?

Stevie, what?

This whole thing is a distraction.

It's all planned.

Did you see the vehicle
as you returned? Nope.

You didn't see any vehicle? No.

All right, Murray?

I see you brought
the big crayon tonight.

Do you mind, Constable?
I'm interviewing a victim here.

Are ye, aye?
You a victim here, Tina?

Mm-hm.

Tell us what you saw, then.

It all happened so fast.

Oh, I bet it did.

Look at my hanging baskets.

Hmm?

I'll be putting in a claim for this.

Full compo.

It's all there, yeah.

Next...Wellington Road,
