[laughter]

Ms. Maggie, can I have

a word, please?

-I got it.

-Got what?

The money. Where are we going

to go?

-I changed my mind.

-What?

I have. I'm keeping it.

-Don't mess.

-I'm not.

-You can't.

-The f*ck, yeah I can.

-No, you can't.

-Davin, I can, and I am.

It's my baby.

You've gone mad, have you?

Your dad would crucify me.

Not if we're married.

Maybe we should talk

about this later

once you've had time to think.

I don't need time to think.

We're not getting married.

I hardly know you,

for f*ck's sake.

That's what the honeymoon's

for, love.

What are you making a face for?

This suit's too big on me.

Nonsense. You look handsome.

I don't think anybody else

would be wearing one.

Oh, never mind that,

you're my son.

And I'm not sending you off to

American looking like a ruffian.

You want to make a good

impression now, don't you?

-Ma.

-What?

I'd like to stop in here

for second.

What for?

I want to say goodbye

to my friends.

Ah, hurry up then.

Here.

[g*nshots]

[screams]

-Hey.

-Hey, Robert.

I'm off to America in two days.

Will you reload?

I'll be gone 'till September.

You have to sh**t them

in the head.

It's not working.

See yas.

-Where are you going, Davin?

-Nowhere. Go back to bed.

-Can I come with you?

-No, I'm not going anywhere.

Raymond's going to k*ll you.

You're taking his bike?

Oh, he's really going to k*ll

you. He's going to cream you.

Alright, you didn't see

me leave, right?

Good man.

Can I have your Adidas?

-My Adidas?

-Yeah.

They're loads too big for you.

I'll grow.

-You sure you will?

-Yeah, I will.

What if you turn out

to be a m*dget, or something?

-f*ck off.

-Alright.

See you, Casper.

Bye, Davin.

Davin McDerby.

-Say it again?

-McDerby.

Welcome to the work

and travel program

of the United States of America.

For over 20 years,

this program has allowed

thousands of Irish students

the opportunity to gain insight

into the life

and culture of the US.

One of the most

popular destinations

is Montauk, Long Island.

Montauk is a wonderful

summer resort,

and one that offers a wealth

of opportunities

to the visiting Irish students.

And your visa gives you

the freedom of working more

than one job if you wish.

Plenty of our students decide

to be chamber maids

in the morning,

then have the afternoons free.

And at night, well, why don't

you try getting a waiter's job

at one of the many fine

restaurants in Montauk?

-This one.

-No.

I'm not paying 800 dollars

to sleep on the floor.

You don't have to, we can pull

in extra mattresses.

We're going to be like sardines

in there.

It could be like

that everywhere. Believe me,

I've called around.

Ah, f*ck it. I suppose

we'll hardly be there anyways,

between work and the beach.

That's right. We'll be working

on that savage tan, eh?

But whatever you choose,

you can be sure

that this is going to be best

summer you've ever had.

[Robert] Hey.

Hey.

I know you. You're Davin

McDerby. It's me, Robert Fisk.

Oh, yeah.

Funny meeting someone from home

over here.

I hear they have the best jobs

on the commercial fishing boat.

I'm going straight there down

to the docks,

and seeing about getting a job.

You can make up to 1500 dollars

in one month.

-f*ck off.

-It's true.

A boy named Francis,

his older brother.

He came back last summer

with 2,000 dollars.

He bought a brand new set

of MacGregor golf clubs.

Brand new.

What kind of boat was he on?

-A fishing boat.

-Yeah, but what kind?

-What was he catching?

-Fish.

[snorts]

Jesus, you know a f*ck lot

about fishing.

[boy] Hey, look at the surfer.

[excited chatter]

[tropical music]

[chatter]

[car horn]

-Hi.

-Aideen Higgins?

Yeah, that's me.

How many can you fit?

Well, seven is the legal limit.

Oh, but we're nine.

-Get in.

-Great.

[Davin] A new boat.

A bit small.

We're used to working for it.

[fisherman]

What were you after?

Well, it was a couple of years

ago, but it was um,

a haddock in herring.

And cod, of course.

-Marlin.

-Marlin.

It's not a coat and tie job.

I know. I left my gear back

in town.

We're going now so make up

your mind.

Let's go, boys.

The dispatcher is everything

to a cab cop.

It's the nerve center.

The heart and soul, if you like.

How's the pay?

It's better than the average

waitress job.

Alright, I'll take it.

Hold on a wee minute there.

It's a 14-16 hour day.

You're going to be so busy,

you're not even going to have

time to pee, let alone hang

out with your mates.

I do a bit of decorating.

-[boat engine revs]

-Hand on the bow.

It's just two weeks, peachy.

I'll be back before you know it.

-[woman] Please be careful.

-Two weeks?

Yo, fancy pants. Put these

in the back.

[seagulls]

Davin.

Good luck, Robert.

You're getting creamed.

You know that guy I was telling

you about?

-Yeah.

-That's him just walking in.

Billy Conlin. He knows about

getting around immigration.

Oh, really? What do I do?

I'll introduce you later.

Keep your hands up, slugger.

Keep your hands up.

Davin!

[punch lands]

[crowd cheers]

Come on, Davin.

Put your hands up, Davin.

Here. Try this.

Thanks.

You with Billy?

I work with him

if that's what you mean.

Oh, yeah?

What's he do then?

Dispatcher, you know.

Pinch in cabs.

Oh, really? I recognize

your voice then.

-You do?

-Yeah, Aideen.

-Queen of the airways.

-Get off.

Good to know.

What?

You sound tired on the radio.

-Shut up, will you?

-Hey, Aideen.

How's it going?

That's attractive.

-Thank you.

-What's your name?

-I'm Davin.

-Davin.

This is Veronica, my roommate.

-Charmed.

-Alright.

-Aideen.

-Hey, Billy.

What up, Rocky? How's the floor?

Is it stopping?

Ah, yeah, You're good.

-Veronica, whoa! Nice dress.

-You like it?

Delicious. Like caramel candy.

Actually that would make a very

good uniform.

-Would it?

-Yeah. Anyway you think.

A little pinch right there.

Ah, cheers. Nice one.

It'd be brilliant. Hey, Davin.

Come on, we'll go for a chat.

Alright.

-Good luck.

-See ya.

You think Billy needs

another dispatcher?

No, I don't think so.

Shame, isn't it?

Yeah.

There's no changing your mind.

Once you do this,

you can't go back.

I'm not going to change my mind.

I consider this a long

term goal.

Alright, look. I've got some

friends in New York.

They'll be able to help you.

I'll get you started.

Hey, great.

What's your family going to say

if you don't come back?

They don't f*cking care,

to be honest.

Alright. Think on it

a week, okay?

But keep it to yourself.

We don't want to give the INS

any reason to do their job.

Alright.

How's your girls?

Like sh*t.

Welcome to America, kid.

[fisherman] We're on it.

The continental shelf,

the great abyss.

No offense, Robert,

but I'm surprised

they got you on the helm

for this sh*t.

Are you okay with it?

Yeah, I suppose.

You're one cool customer, mick.

I keep telling Smitty

I don't think it's worth it.

You veer just two degrees off

that shelf,

and boom, you'll drop like

a load of led.

Take the boat down like

a little toy.

I don't care how rich the fish

stock is out here.

I don't breathe water.

What's our bearing?

Three hundred and forty two,

forty one.

What? What? We're heading off

that cliff.

Forward, forward, forward,

I say.

Okay, you keep it right there.

I don't really know

what I'm doing.

I'm going to go down and check

the lines.

I feel sick.

Hey, buddy. You should probably

be wearing one of these.

We're counting on you.

[laughing]

[waves]

[boat creaking]

Yeah, sharp housework.

Cheers, 'kay.

Eldo. Eldo?

f*ck. Billy, this pedal

is sticking again.

[Eldo] Watch your language,

Aideen.

Sorry, Eldo.

That party on south side just

got shut down.

Hold on, hold on.

Darcy and his roommates

are having one.

It's at the house behind the

mobile station on Bayberry.

What'd you do?

Sorry. I just got

a little distracted.

[phone rings]

-Pink Tuna.

-Hey, sweetie.

Hi Veronica. Where to?

Riverhead, where else?

More shopping? Jesus, hold on.

Uh, haven't any drivers

at the moment, Vi. Can you wait?

-No.

-I'll take her.

When's that going

to get done then?

It's done.

Billy will be over in 10.

-Billy?

-Yeah, see you.

Well, I'll see you, fellas.

Thanks for everything.

You take care of yourself.

[laughs]

What's that?

It's kelp straight

from Georges Bank.

And I'm not taking less than 350

a pound for it.

Is it fresh?

It's just off the boat.

Are you Donna Lee?

Yeah, that's right.

What do you think, Terry?

It's seaweed.

Not seaweed, kelp.

The kind the Japanese eat.

What's your name, pal?

I'm Robert Fisk.

Robert, I know the guys

on the Donna Lee.

They're pulling your leg.

Don't worry.

It's not the first time.

If you happen

to have some barnacles,

I might be interested.

Hey!

Wait.

I'll buy that seaweed.

-What for?

-For my garden fertilizer.

Is 20 dollars okay?

Here, you can have it.

No, no. 20 dollars.

Can you deliver it?

Yeah, alright.

Okay. I'll write down

my address.

[door closes]

Ahoy there!

What'd you catch?

Moving it on then?

Yeah, thanks for the desert.

Two straight weeks out

in the water.

Wasn't exactly what we came

here for.

What are we looking for?

-Thirteen.

-That's my room.

You're going to be

my roommate then?

-Yeah, I suppose.

-Great.

Just here.

Wait, did you tell anyone back

home I was here?

No.

Well, because it's kind

of important that you don't.

-Why?

-It's a long story.

I'll tell you about

it later, alright?

Just don't tell anyone

I was here.

-Alright.

-Good man.

Usually looks a bit better

than this.

Big fat f*cking winkler made

a mess of things last night.

Pay your rent McDerby.

Excuse me, who just found us

a new roommate?

Hi.

Is that seaweed?

Ask him what it's for.

-Fertilizer.

-Fertilizer.

Fertilizer?

-Why seaweed?

-What's your name?

-Robert Fisk.

-Robert Fisk.

Don't make a mess

in my cab, alright?

You like "sex on the beach?"

That's original.

What's in it anyway?

Loads of things. It's lethal.

Alright, just the one.

Can't have just the one.

It's two for one night.

Some of us have to work,

you know.

So, you're not planning

to go back home then.

Sorry?

Don't worry. Your secret's safe

with me, but how come?

Ireland is not a place

for people with aspirations.

Ha, what are your aspirations?

Um, the pursuit of happiness.

Best of luck.

Speaking of pursuits,

did you shag Billy yet?

Shut up.

I just want to know.

None of your business.

I just couldn't help wondering

what was behind all

those long hours, you know?

I have to send money

back to my mom.

Plus, pay off the travel loan.

And I want to save a bit.

-What for?

-The future.

So you want to spend your one

and only soul in America

saving for your retirement?

I have my fun.

Now, here's my roommate.

Let's see if we can get us a

drink out of the old chiseler.

-You're dressed like a girl.

-Yeah, what do you think?

Robert Fisk. Are you the one

with the seaweed?

Not anymore. I sold it.

Then what's with the paint?

That's for my new job.

Where are you working now?

With the woman that bought

the seaweed.

You're joking.

You're really milking this one,

aren't you?

Thanks. I'm off.

-Nice meeting you, Robert.

-Yeah, it was nice to meet you.

See you, Davin.

Yeah, say hi to Billy for me,

will you?

f*ck off.

-She's nice.

-Yeah.

Hey, what are you? The play boy

of the western world now?

Hey, Cormick. Another round.

-Robert's buying.

-No, I'm not.

Alright, I'll buy another round.

No, I don't want a round.

For f*ck sake,

is there a special out here

for boring people?

Come on, Robert. We're in

America, let's celebrate.

Let's show them what we're all

about. Cormick, another two.

f*ck, it's getting heavy.

But a day is a day

though, right?

I didn't say carry

it all the way.

Yeah, you did. Look here.

Do you play golf, Davin?

It's a real true test.

You're up against yourself.

You've got nobody else to beat.

I'm not that good.

Davin, me paint!

I'm sorry. Let gravity take

a turn, will you?

Robert.

[knocks]

Hi, Robert.

I'm sorry I'm late.

I had an accident

with that paint.

It burst open.

It may have been loose. The lid.

We should go back to the store.

It's their fault.

I don't know why you--

I did kind of drop it.

Oh.

I went by the store

this morning, but it was closed.

Look, I was about to run down

to the beach for a quick swim.

Why don't you come with me?

-Swim?

-Might make you feel better.

Let me see if there is a suit

for you. Come in.

[chuckles]

[waves rolling]

Is it alright with the waves?

It's great with the waves.

Come on, you'll love it.

[Aideen] So what is she like?

Is she sexy?

-Do you fancy her?

-No.

What? Not at all?

No.

Is he blushing, Eldo?

He sure is.

I don't think I have to put up

with this.

I'm a paying customer.

I have a right to my privacy.

Ha!

-He fancies her.

-Oh, yeah.

Definitely.

Yep.

[Davin] I know drink comb.

Go on, ask me anything.

[Cormick]

Give it a rest will you, Davin?

[phone rings]

I would be great at bartending.

No.

Hello?

I'm calling from Ireland

for Davin.

Hold on. It's for you.

I know every drink.

Personality, talk

to the customers.

It's from Ireland.

Hello?

Didn't think I'd find you,

did you?

Who's this?

Not sure. It's only the mother

of your f*cking child.

Margaret, how are you?

I'm in the jacks every morning

puking my guts out,

thank you very much.

-How are you?

-Grand.

Well, isn't that nice. I hear

it's gorgeous where you are.

Yeah, um.

What's up, Cormick.

-Davin, are you still there?

-Yeah.

So, Davin, if I didn't know

you loved me so much,

I'd think you were pulling

a legger.

No, it's not like

that, Margaret.

What's it like then?

Geez, Davin. The least you

could do is offer me money.

-Alright.

-Four hundred pounds.

Jesus, Margaret.

Hey, sorry, listen.

Here's a list of some people

in New York, right?

Just call when you're ready,

okay?

Great.

You alright?

Okay, good.

I'll see you later, alright?

[giggling]

[calming music]

Is um, a Robert Fisk

working here?

Yeah, come on in.

-She's gorgeous.

-Shut up.

What did you come out here for?

Did you tell anyone back home

I was here?

-Did you?

-No.

I need to borrow some money.

-How much?

-Whatever you can manage.

I need about 400 pounds.

Jesus, Davin.

Look, I wouldn't ask if it

wasn't important, Robert.

What's this all about?

You can't tell anyone.

I got a girl in trouble

back home.

-Who?

-Never mind who.

-Pregnant.

-Yeah, pregnant.

What do you think?

Was it Ginger Conway?

f*ck off, she's a k*ll.

-Give us a hint.

-No.

-Do I know her?

-No.

-Look, I can here for help,

not 20 f*cking questions.

Would you like a drink, Davin?

Oh, no. I'm grand, thanks.

Yeah.

It's very kind of you, Robert.

So when will she get that?

-This afternoon.

-Oh, great. Thanks.

What's this? Davin McDerby

sending money home?

Always thought your money went

to the pursuit of happiness.

Oh, yeah.

Always trying to give back

to the poor b*stards back

in Ireland, you know?

I've already guessed it, Davin.

Well, you keep that under

your hat.

I have me reputation to uphold.

Do you really?

-Good luck.

-See you.

-Hi.

-Hi, how are you doing?

[motorcycle engine]

[Fiona] McDerby residence.

Can I speak to Casper, please?

It's Davin. Hi Davin.

-Fiona.

-It's about time you called.

Could you just put

Casper on, Raymond?

What happened that night?

Did she tell you

she was on the pill?

That's none of your business.

Yeah, well, unfortunately,

it is.

I had to pay off that little

tyrant 300 pounds.

-You what?

-That's right.

So now you have to come back,

which is a shame,

because we all got used

to you not being here.

Just put Casper on,

you f*cking blowhard.

Listen, Davin. The party's over.

I've already booked

you on a flight.

You have a week to say

your goodbyes,

and get yourself together.

I'm not coming back, Raymond.

-Hello, Davin.

-Casper?

Get off the f*cking

phone, Casper.

You get off the f*cking

phone, Raymond.

Bye, Davin.

Casper?

Have you already weighed

that money I just gave you?

No.

I just want it back,

I changed my mind.

Okay.

Good man.

[chatter]

-Is Billy there?

-No, he's driving.

What's the story on him

and Veronica?

You don't have to protect

him, Aideen.

[phone rings]

Pink Tuna.

Oh, hello, Mrs. Barters.

Yeah, I'm just putting

in the last stitches now.

Red?

No. No, I wouldn't say

it's too red.

Well, actually, today might

not be so good.

I need to talk to you.

I'll tell you what.

Why don't I call you

when it's ready? How's that?

-[phone rings]

-Hold on.

Pink Tuna.

Yeah, okay. About 10 minutes.

Billy, I got three

at the station

for you to go to Harren pond.

That's not on my way.

It is if you take Mietenhaus.

Mrs. Barters.

What the f*ck? She hung up.

She gave it to me.

Who?

Carolyn, the women

I'm working for.

Lucky you.

Yeah, but I don't know

what to do.

What do you mean?

She's my boss.

It's not proper, is it?

Yeah, so she fancies you.

No. Do you think?

What? She bought you cover alls,

did she?

Covering not much at all,

that's what these are.

She does fancy you, Robert.

You should by f*cking thankful.

She's old.

She was married. I don't even

know if she's divorced yet.

That's strange, isn't it?

What's strange?

Well, I'm only 21.

Well, do you fancy her?

I'm talking about the age

difference here.

Suppose I did... Well, it just

doesn't seem proper.

What would people think?

Suppose my mom found out.

[woman]

Exactly how old is she, Robert?

[Eldo] If she ain't old at all,

I'd do her in a heartbeat.

[woman] Shut up, Eldo,

you pervert.

[Eldo] Does she have all

her teeth, Robert?

-They heard everything.

-The pedal got stuck.

Robert, come back.

Not me, thanks very much.

It's a disgusting display

of American access.

People are starving, you know.

Yeah, well, it's not made

of corn flix, you silly twit.

Hey. Hey, Robert.

I need a chat.

I didn't mean to spend the money

on a car.

It just couldn't have worked

out better.

The truth is it's a pretty

practical investment.

How much money do you spend

on cabs?

How much time do you waste

hitchhiking?

And another thing.

That is now your car.

She is a classic.

You following?

So if I put a little work

into it,

resell it for loads more

than I paid for it.

I already paid for it.

Loads more than you paid for it.

I'll double your money.

-Come on. Hold on for a second.

-Leave me alone.

That's what you got

to do in this country.

You got to speculate.

You got to take a risk.

Oi!

What are you doing?

Get out of the car,

for god's sake.

[phone rings]

Don't pick up.

[voice message]

Carolyne, this is Henry.

Since I haven't heard

from you much,

do you think the 12th,

1 p.m. to 4 is okay with you?

If it's not, please call me,

or have your lawyer call me.

It will probably save us time,

i.e. money if we got together,

or at least talked on the phone

beforehand.

Of course you probably

wouldn't want to do that.

One more thing, I'd really like

to get one weekend at the house

before the summer's over.

I don't think that's too much

to ask. Alright? Bye.

I was afraid to pull

all the big ones.

Carolyne, you're going

to hurt yourself.

Let me do it. Carolyne.

Ow!

Sorry. I nearly had it there.

That's it.

It's just a little fella.

Hm.

That's Eldo's cash

in there, alright?

That's 571 dollars there.

Suppose you want me

to deposit it.

No, I want you to go shopping.

Well, maybe I will.

What's with you?

You never gave me an answer.

About what?

Veronica.

I just think you can do better.

Oh, yeah.

Look, I like Veronica.

But she's not your income

intellectually.

She's mad about me, though.

I mean, that's a great thing.

Having someone care about you

like that, you know?

She's a real bed bug and all,

you know what I mean?

Careful you don't have

a heart attack.

-Oh, Aideen.

-What?

If you happen to see Veronica,

don't mention to her

what I just said.

[music]

-Hi, is Billy here.

-No.

-Where is he?

-He's in his cab.

-He's not coming in?

-He's working.

Is he angry with me?

Just what is it with you two?

I'm not your f*cking marriage

counselor, alright?

[chatter]

Cheers, lads.

Hey, Aideen.

Hey, chins. Move over there.

f*ck off. I've been waiting

here 20 minutes.

It's alright, Davin.

Picnic tables outside.

-What?

-Outside.

Two minutes on the patio. Scoot.

Oh, geez, Davin.

It's a farm cutter.

It's supposed to make

you see better.

I don't want to look

at you that good now.

You think she's attractive?

Veronica?

Yeah.

In an obvious 'please f*ck me'

kind of way.

Here.

Now you have it.

When do you go back to work?

-I'm not going back to work.

-You serious?

I'm not working my a*s off

so he can run around

with that slapper.

Bit right.

My own f*cking roommate.

After your own boss.

That's shocking, really.

-I don't know what I saw in him.

-Neither do I.

You're far too good for him.

-I'm an idiot.

-You're grand.

You know, you just need to get

out more.

Jesus, can you make more?

Sure can.

Talk to me.

The test showed...

There's more than two men

I can't pick.

We have to operate again.

Who'd believe it? I mean really,

who'd believe it?

What's wrong?

What's the matter?

I don't know. It's just...

He's dying.

Sorry, I'm not usually

like this.

[on TV] Can't you talk

to your friend?

It's embarrassing.

It's okay.

[romantic music]

[upbeat bar music]

[Davin] You don't really

need me.

It's Saturday night, Davin.

Exactly.

Come on, let me go have a bit

of fun, Cormick. Will you?

You got all staffed up.

She's too mature

for you anyways.

-Who?

-Aideen.

-f*ck off.

-I don't fancy Aideen.

Come on, Cormick.

Yeah. Get out of here.

You're a good kid.

[upbeat music]

Off we go.

[engine revs]

You're out of petrol.

I'm not out of petrol.

I filled it up this morning.

Well, you'll have to fill

it again, won't you, Davin?

That's life in a big fat

American car.

Oh, give it a rest,

won't you, Aideen?

If you're not part

of the solution,

you're part of the problem.

Follow me, kids.

[Billy] Aideen?

Oh, it's f*cking Billy.

-Billy?

-Aideen, what's going on?

What's going on? Eldo's AWOL,

that's what's going on.

Left his can outside

with the engine running.

Hey, Billy. You know what I said

about Veronica?

I think we can talk

about that tomorrow.

What do you think?

I don't know what you see

in her, I don't.

I mean, she might be the ride

of the century,

but you still have to turn soon

now again.

[laughing on radio]

She's not the sharpest tool

in the shed,

you know what I mean?

Besides, there's more to life

than a great pair of t*ts.

Kids, huh?

Um, I was just thinking.

What?

-Well, I was just thinking.

-Hm?

Could you be pregnant now?

-Well, you can't be.

-No.

-Don't worry.

-Okay, that's good.

I never did this before.

You were great.

Yeah? You serious?

You were great, too.

[chuckles]

Jesus. Who'd you say lives here?

-Ralph Lauren.

-Who's that?

[kids chatter]

[passes gas]

That's disgusting. You're not

getting in that swimming pool

until you've used the jacks.

Alright, folks.

Let the games begin.

Geez. Keep your jacks on.

Come back!

Thanks for the dip!

[Davin and Aideen chatting]

Liar. f*cking liar!

[laughing]

What happened?

I think your bollocks

hit my ribs.

Listen to that.

Is that the ocean?

'Course it is.

What the hell did you think

it was?

I've never been.

Are you joking?

Back in Ireland, just not here.

Oh, you don't know

what you're missing.

Got, like, waves,

and you can actually surf.

I'm going to get a surfboard.

I am.

I'm going to learn.

I just don't know

how you manage yourself.

Manage what?

Every time I see you,

you're living like

there's no tomorrow, but somehow

you still manage to send

money home.

Well, that was just kind

of the one time.

That car, you know.

That must have cost

you something.

I kind of got a loan for that.

-That's f*cking awful.

-Isn't it.

This is a cowboy's drink.

John Wayne.

No wonder he died.

I don't know how you're doing

it, but you're doing it.

Well, you're very responsible,

I'm...

Totally irresponsible.

-I've done things like--

-I don't want to be responsible.

I'm tired of it.

Everyone can f*ck off

and look after themselves.

From now on, I'm having fun.

Went to the beach,

getting a tan.

Maybe I'll get a surfboard

and go surfing with you.

Yeah, now you're talking.

The stars are spinning.

Thanks for the ride.

I mean, the lift.

-See you, tomorrow.

-See you.

So that's where you've been

all night.

Get your hole rolled, yo.

Fair played you, Robert.

Some boy.

f*ck.

f*ck, Davin, wake up!

f*ck.

f*ck.

[man on dispatch]

Is somebody out there? I need

some cabs at the train station.

f*ck.

Thank f*ck.

Oh, f*ck.

Whoever it was knows

how to knit.

It was an employee.

It was the employee.

They called him Ralph.

My name is Riddick Lester

Why do you think they called

you Ralph?

I have no idea. I have no idea.

Aideen, wait.

This mushroom walks

into a bar, right?

And the barmen says,

"Sorry, we don't serve

your type around here."

The mushroom goes, "Why not?

I'm a fungi."

Hey, good luck

with Billy, alright?

-Cheers, Davin.

-Yeah.

Alright, lads. What's up?

Jesus, I'll tell you. My heads

clamming like a fur bat.

You got to pay your rent, Davin.

I'm going to pay my rent, Pat.

I already told you that.

Today, Davin.

It has to be today.

How am I going to do that?

Look, I'll have it for you

by the weekend, definitely.

You've been saying that for over

a month.

We already took a vote, Davin.

What kind of a vote?

No more extensions.

Alright, lads.

I got a small room in the car.

I don't need this f*cking

sh*t h*le.

Been a real pleasure living

with yous.

A real life experience.

I'll leave you. Good luck.

f*cking loser.

[man on dispatch]

Yeah. I don't know.

I don't know what's going

to happen.

Yeah, he's not happy.

This morning, yeah.

Police called.

Yeah, I suppose they must have

seen the cab, or something.

Alright, and now I'm just

top myself.

You should get down to Murphy's.

She told me so.

Yeah, yeah. I'll send a cab

for you.

Good luck.

Wake up, Davin.

This came in for you yesterday.

I'd have gotten

it to you sooner,

but I didn't keep

the forwarding address.

Which ones are these?

Those are the air bags.

-The what?

-The air bags.

Cushion in the sole,

give you the extra spring

in your step.

Oh, I'll walk around a little

bit more.

Knock yourself out, love.

-Hey, Davin.

-How are you doing?

-Alright. And you?

-Grand.

-You sell trainers?

-Yeah.

Need a pair?

No.

-Here.

-What's that?

That's the first payment

on the loan.

I don't need it now.

Well, I have it now,

so you better take it.

Listen, I'm sorry about

you getting kicked out.

Wasn't your fault.

-Have a seat if you like.

-Alright. Cheers.

-How's Carolyne?

-Fine.

What?

Oh, you doob. Did you?

-I don't believe it.

-What?

You know what.

Shut up, will you?

Do the ones I'm wearing come

in this color?

No.

Well, you better

be getting back.

Carolyne is going away

for the weekend

if you want to come out

for a swim.

You're not living there,

are you?

Well, no, but I'm working there

all weekend.

I just thought it'd be alright

if a friend

came over for a swim.

Alright, yeah. Well, I'm pretty

busy at work myself,

but I'll twinkle my own.

Davin, it's my birthday

Saturday.

Alright. Well, I'll pop up.

Alright, Davin. Feel free.

Okay, good luck.

Congratulations.

I know what we need.

Do you have any black?

What do you want black for?

Make some smoke come out

of that smoke stacker.

-Here's your smoke.

-f*cking bollocks.

I've been working hard on that.

-Stop f*cking with the cake.

-It's definitely strange.

Reminds me of an alien.

Alien, right?

You know what that is?

That's my son, alright?

-Thought of a name for it?

-Maybe son of a moron.

[laughing]

Thanks for all the advice, lads.

You can always

be really helpful.

-I really appreciate it.

-Oh, dry your eyes, Davin.

Listen, I'm older

than you, right?

Been there, seen it, bought

the t-shirt, all that shite.

My advice to you is get as far

away from this woman

as you possibly can.

-Amen.

-He's right.

You back home,

you're a dead man.

You can always get a job

at the missionaries.

They're always looking

for people, Davin.

I don't think you would

be so entertained

if you were in my position.

No, that's right. I wouldn't be

laughing, I'd be crying.

You actually taught

me something.

Can we just go back

and concentrate

on the f*cking cake, please?

We're working on it.

-What the f*ck is that?

-I'm not finished.

Why're you're putting a p*nis

on the cake?

Because it's Robert's p*nis,

you know?

Nice, I like it. Yeah.

A little ding dong

for frisky Fisk.

[chatter]

[beach music]

I tell you. You just got to keep

your arms back like this.

I couldn't.

The sand kept coming up.

No, like this, right?

Then arch your back.

Just plane there on the wave.

I would have lost me face

if I did that.

No, you just need to get used

to it.

Look. Like this.

[loud music]

Where did Davin say this party

was anyway?

Where Robert's working.

I wonder if this old lady

will be there.

Nah, she's gone off to New York

for the weekend.

-It's going to be a zoo.

-Davin said he only invited

ten or fifteen people.

He needs at least 50.

Come on, we might as well walk.

Yeah, the cab's not coming.

I'm going to k*ll Billy.

No, there's no beer,

but I have this, though.

You shouldn't be in there.

Do you mind, Robert?

I'm not messing,

get out of there.

Yeah, yeah, shut the door.

Get the cups.

What are you doing?

Come on, Robert.

Go on, will you?

Robert.

You've done quite well for

yourself, Robert, haven't you?

Robert, is this her?

-Yeah.

-Which one is she?

I'm just teasing you.

She's gorgeous, Robert.

So, tell us, Robert. Is it love?

-I don't know.

-Look at you.

He's in love.

You're going to help clean

this mess up.

Of course I will.

Will you lighten up, man?

It's your birthday.

Did you know this fellow made

over 2000 dollars

on a fishing boat this summer?

Is that true?

Two thousand.

We're from the same neighborhood

back home.

[engine]

[laughter]

Do you have an opener?

This is f*cking useless.

[music stops]

[people chatter]

Robert.

Police? 42 South Parker Lane.

Several kids are trespassing

in my house.

They're having a party.

Good.

The police are on their way.

Anyone still here when they

arrive will be arrested.

I'll clean this all up.

Carolyne.

Just let me explain, Carolyne.

Happy Birthday, Robert.

-f*ck off.

-Come on, man.

[cars drive off.

[heavy rain]

Just go soft, soft!

f*cking hell, man.

Is that Aideen?

[Davin] Let's not talk about

the party.

[girl] Carolyne ruined

the party.

She called the police.

f*cking place cleared like

it was on fire.

How many people were there?

Loads. It was packed.

Told Robert she'd have

him arrested.

f*cking hell. Where is he now?

I tried to give him a lift.

-So where is he?

-He must have left.

Let's get out of here

before the cops come.

No, we're going back.

We've got to find him.

What are you talking about?

He could be anywhere.

And I can't take all of you.

[all] Yes, you can.

[chatter]

-That was Robert.

-Where?

-We just passed him.

-Are you sure?

Yes, come on, turn around!

-Alright, alright.

-Turn around, Davin.

Alright, give me a f*cking

chance, will you?

[Aideen] Robert, come on,

jump in.

Come on, love. You'll catch

a death out there.

Come on, Davin.

We're sorry about what

happened, Robert. We all are.

We're not leaving

until you get in.

Few scoops,

it'll be grand, Robert.

Pull yourself through.

[bang]

[screams]

How was I to know she was going

to come back?

I'm not a f*cking psychic.

You let it get out of control.

You told too many people.

-It was a party, Aideen.

-Yes, for you?

Oh, f*ck off. We had fun.

Come on.

Yeah, well, he's not having any

fun now, is he?

Yeah, that's not my fault.

Oh, no, it's never your fault,

is it, Davin?

No, actually, it's always

my fault.

That's the story of my life.

Look, Aideen. He could have

stopped it anytime he wanted

and he didn't.

He's not the type to stick up

for himself like that.

Well, he's got to take

responsibility for that then.

What? Like you're taking

responsibility for that baby?

That's not the same thing.

It's exactly the same thing.

You know, there might be more

to that story

than you get in that f*cking

fax machine.

Yeah, well,

how would I know, Davin?

You haven't told me, did you?

I'm going to bed.

Aideen.

f*ck off, will you?

You'll wake Gillian.

Can I sleep over maybe

on the floor, or something?

No.

I can't stay in my car.

It's like a f*cking sponge.

Come on. Where am I going to go?

I don't know.

I was going to tell you about

the baby. I was, it's just--

It's just the more time passed,

I had forgotten,

and I didn't want to tell

you anymore.

Look, it was just one

of those things, you know?

It just happened.

A one night stand.

She's no childhood sweetheart.

We both decided we weren't going

to have it,

and I was going to pay for it

and all,

but then she started talking

about marriage.

She left me no choice.

What do you mean she left

you no choice?

Well, I wasn't going to end

my life

just so she could have a baby.

Davin, it's your baby.

You're having the baby,

same as her.

You've got to go back.

No, what I have to do is put

as much distance

between me and her as possible.

Jesus, Davin. Don't you see

a pattern here?

Yeah, I see a pattern. I want

to f*cking break that pattern.

For five years, Aideen, I've

been trying to leave that place.

And finally, I did. I'm not

going back, no way.

-So that's it.

-Yeah.

I'm a f*ck up, Aideen.

I always have been.

I didn't think so.

Yeah, well, you're wrong.

I'm tired. I'm going to bed.

You don't need to do that.

I'm almost done.

Carolyne, I feel terrible.

I do. I didn't plan this.

I told this one person

that he could come over,

and he told all

these other people.

What's that?

It's what I owe you for the last

two weeks.

-Carolyne.

-Take it.

I'm sorry.

It wasn't my fault.

I gave you keys to my house.

Carolyne.

There's really nothing to say.

I feel bad about it.

It was a mistake

for us to get involved.

It's not a mistake.

It's a good thing, it is.

It's the best thing that's ever

happened to me.

-I'm sorry.

-Carolyne, please.

[calming music]

Davin, wake up.

-What?

-I need some money for food.

[phone rings]

-Hello?

-Is Aideen there, please?

-Davin?

-Veronica.

Well, well, you surfaced

at last.

Yeah, is Aideen there?

She's gone back.

-What?

-She left three days ago.

You blew it, Davin.

She was keen on you.

I mean, you were such

opposites--

You're getting burned, man.

Are you flying back today?

So I don't have anything

to say about you and Carolyne.

I know I f*cked it up for you.

I didn't mean to.

I really didn't.

I just wanted to tell you that

before you went back.

Here, I have the rest

of the money for you.

-Where have you been?

-New York.

Not going back home then?

Nope.

I don't want to back either.

You're going to need some

managing for that.

I don't care.

Did you ever get to go golfing?

No.

Have you even talked

to her since?

No.

-Not at all?

-No.

It's over.

I mean, I suppose it's bound

to end, you know?

Sooner or later.

I was hoping to stay.

[Davin]

How about your family?

Would you miss them?

I would sure, but not as much

as I would miss her.

I'm shocked, Robert.

I had no idea you felt

so strongly about her.

I love her.

I don't mind saying that.

She may have been the love

of my life.

I can't imagine finding another

like her.

You will, of course.

You don't know that.

No one knows that.

Did you see Aideen before

she left?

I thought she was leaving today?

What?

Same flight as mine.

She's not gone?

She went away for a bit

traveling, but she's back.

How are you getting

to the airport?

Bus.

I'm going that way. I can give

you a lift, alright?

I already got me ticket.

I'm not going

to charge you, Robert.

Do you need money for gas,

or something?

No, I'd just like the company.

I don't know.

I already have my ticket.

Just let me drive you

to the f*cking airport.

Why?

'Cause I want to drive Aideen,

and it'll go a lot smoother

if you were there.

Do you fancy Aideen?

Look, it's the last favor

I'm ever going to ask you.

Just let me drive you

to the airport,

and when Aideen's around,

act like you like me.

That's platonic.

I know.

Well, I'm not finished

packing yet.

Okay. I'll wait in the car.

[girls chatting]

-Is that Davin?

-Yeah.

How did you do it? Slip him some

ecstasy, or something?

No, I took him golfing.

Carried his gulfs for him.

He was mad about that woman,

you know?

I really f*cked that one up.

So how's New York?

It's great.

I have a crap job,

but it pays alright.

The money's floundering that

place. Do you want to see it?

You'd like New York.

-I'm sure I would.

-I'm serious though.

You should try it.

It'd be a real life experience.

-Davin.

-I'm serious, though, I mean--

If I could make money,

think what you could do.

I mean, you've got a brain

in your head.

You're better than most people,

Aideen. You got a job like that.

There's no one holding you back

in this country.

There's nobody holding me back

in Ireland.

That's because you're different.

Davin.

You don't have to butter me up.

I'm not holding a grudge

against you.

I'm not trying to butter

you up.

I just want you to stay.

I just feel like I'm starting

to get my head sorted, you know?

Getting straight,

and you're leaving.

And I feel bad about the way

things worked out for us.

It could have been alright if I

hadn't made a mess of things.

Jesus, Davin.

It's a bit late for this,

isn't it?

Yeah.

When I saw you drive up,

I thought maybe you changed

your mind about going back.

-Really?

-Yeah.

Davin, you've got to go back

and work things out

with this girl and her family.

I mean, I'm not saying

you have to marry her,

there's no way they can make

you do that anyway.

You just got to talk to them,

and figure out something

everyone can live with.

Geez, you've got to try,

At least, for your own peace

of mind.

I'm going to send money back

from New York.

Keep that bugger happy, I swear.

Then go back and tell her that.

I already sold my ticket.

I can loan you money.

I can't, Aideen. If I go back,

I'll get stuck there,

I know I will.

The day I left home was

the happiest day of my life.

[calming music]

-[Aideen] Billy!

-[Davin] Billy!

[both] Bye!

Geez, what happened?

I don't know.

Something's burning.

[engine dies]

That's not steam, that's smoke.

f*ck this, I'm going to leg it.

-Come on, hurry.

-Yeah.

Before that gas tank blows,

if you please.

-You going to be alright?

-Yeah.

See you.

Good luck.

Aideen.
