Smother (2021) s01e05 Episode Script

And if I see a sign
in the sky tonight
No one's gonna tell me
it's a trick of the light
May never come
but I'm willing to wait
What can I say?
I'm a man of the faith
And there's
an ocean in my body
And there's a river
in my soul
And I'm crying
[woman on TV] IVF is so common
that more than 5 million
babies have been born
worldwide through
this technology.
IVF works by mimicking
the natural design of human
sexual reproduction.
In vitro fertilization
literally means
fertilized in glass.
In IVF eggs are removed
Mr. and Mrs. Foley?
-We're ready for you.
-Okay.
This is it.
We don't know
if it'll stick around.
If it's as stubborn as you,
it's not going anywhere.
-Are you okay?
-Yeah.
Jenny! Tell me
you still have it.
-Have what?
-Just stop!
We're being audited
for Christ's sake.
What the hell were you thinking.
Look I lent it to my stepfather,
all right, he was desperate.
So? That doesn't make
stealing 100,000 Euro
from your partners okay.
He was supposed to give
it back before anyone
noticed it was gone.
But then he died.
Jesus Jenny.
This is serious.
It's a crime.
You could lose your license
and bankrupt the clinic.
Please.
Please, just give me a few days.
I mean
It's not like I'm going
to do a runner, is it?
Look at me,
I'm the size of a small planet.
Please, Kev.
Look, you know me, I'm-- I'm
I made a mistake,
but I'll make it right.
You're involving me.
That's not fair.
I know.
I'm sorry.
You've got three days to fix it.
After that, you're on your own.
Let me help you.
No.
No.
No don't!
It's fine.
It's not fine.
Fine suggests everything's
going to be okay.
It's not, is it?
Where do we even start?
What are the words to tell
your kids you're dying?
Talk about angels,
clouds and cotton wool.
They're way too smart
for that, and besides
they know you're an atheist.
I'm thinking for the post
funeral menu, bruschetta,
topped with
avocado, anchovies, scallops.
-But your dad hated all
of those, made him wretch.
-Exactly.
It's my way of sticking
my two fingers up to
him for trying to sell
my cafe from underneath me.
Fine, no scallops, spoilsport.
What are you looking for?
Well, there was just this
lovely family photo,
taken at Jenny's wedding,
I wanted
to give you all a copy.
No thanks.
Just because we looked happy,
doesn't mean we were.
Have you seen the boys?
Uh, yeah, Jacob's about,
but I haven't seen Calum yet.
By the way, I have booked
The Humming Bird
for your birthday lunch.
All right, listen, about that.
No, no, no, no.
We are doing it, come on,
this is my third attempt
at trying to organize
a family meal,
and nothing is going
to stop it from going ahead.
Look at this.
Denis and Frank, summer of '68.
Hmm
[doorbell ringing]
I'll get it.
There's a really
cute one of Calum.
Val, sorry to call so early.
No, no, it's-- it's fine.
Actually, um,
I was hoping to run into you.
I owe you an apology.
I was very, very short
with you the last time we spoke.
Not to worry.
I'm used to being the last
person people want to see.
Speaking of which,
do you have a minute
to talk now?
Yeah, yeah, em
My grandsons are still sleeping,
can we talk around the corner?
I'll just-- I'll just
get my coat.
Grand, yeah.
Actually,
I'm trying to arrange a funeral.
I was just wondering
did you know when the body
is going to be released?
We can't release the body
until we've concluded
our investigation,
and we're not there yet.
Yeah, but you said the autopsy
would make things clearer.
The results were inconclusive.
Inconclusive, how exactly?
Well they don't suggest
foul play, but they don't
rule it out either.
So what, that's-- that's it
then?
Normally when we try
to rule out foul play
we'll look for one or two people
who might have
disliked the victim,
but in the case of your husband,
I'm already in double figures.
Well, yeah,
that was Denis, you know?
I think he actually liked
getting under people's skin.
Look, someone went behind
his back, told the bank
and the investors
about inadequate fireproofing
at the Seaview Estate.
That's why the build
was shut down.
I was hoping you could
tell me who might
have had that kind of
a grudge against him.
I-- I just I wasn't involved
with Denis' business
affairs, Paudie,
I wish I could help.
Right.
That's a shame.
I just want to reassure you,
that I'm not going anywhere
until I find out the truth about
what happened to your husband.
Paudie, what if it was just,
you know, an accident?
Then I suppose
that's the truth we'll find.
Pat, I'm telling you I paid that
invoice myself, yeah, February.
I have it here in front of me,
it's nearly 22 grand.
Sure what were you doing
talking to Denis?
I do the ordering,
you know that.
How much are we talking?
On credit?
Jesus!
Look, I'm-- I'm sorry, Pat,
I really, I had no idea.
Yeah look just leave it
with me till the end
of the week, will you?
Right, good man, thanks. Thanks.
[knock at door]
Calum!
Come on, it's time to
get up, and don't forget
our family meeting.
Mum?
That fight you had with Elaine?
I'm so sorry
things got out of hand.
She said that you and Dad
were having an affair for years.
I'm not proud of it,
but we were together, yes.
Why didn't he just leave her?
Why did he have to cheat on her?
Well he was thinking of you and
Jacob, what was best for you.
Are you angry with us?
No, it's just funny.
Grown-ups always tell kids
never to cheat and lie,
but then they do it
themselves all the time.
Come in when you're ready.
So, the fireproofing
still needs to be properly
inserted into the walls,
but like that's a relatively
straightforward procedure.
Now I think that
with Ned's investment,
-we can probably sell these
on within the year.
-Frank, stop.
Of course I would have
told him that myself
if he'd only answer his
bloody phone now and again.
He's not interested.
What do you mean?
He said you must be up
the creek without a paddle
to go crawling
to him for money, considering
how Denis felt about him.
Yeah, well, Denis isn't here.
I'm here now.
And we both know that
Ned would have gone under
years ago if it hadn't
been for your money.
Why would I want to save
Denis Ahern's company?
Because I'm asking you.
What about Val?
Yeah, I'm asking
for her as well.
Why didn't Ned call me?
Why didn't he tell me himself?
Maybe I just wanted to see
what was on offer for myself.
Are you ready?
Yeah.
Seriously, if anyone should
be sweating, it's Michael.
Everyone knows he's punching
well above his weight.
You don't really think that?
He's a lovely guy.
And lots of women earn more
than their husbands these days,
it's nothing to be ashamed of.
[phone buzzes]
Two secs, I've got to take this.
Is he ever not working?
Let's have a look at you.
You look beautiful.
Thanks, Uncle Frank.
Right, let's get you
into the car.
[Denis]
I have buyers already.
I know that and I don't care,
just get them finished, Tom!
[Val] Has Kevin told the rest
of the practice?
No, he won't be able to
keep it to himself for long.
I could be sent to prison
for this.
Well, I just-- I don't
understand why Denis would
put you at risk like this?
I asked him that,
do you know what he said to me?
Progress always
involves risks, love.
Bastard!
He must have left me something
in his will, right?
I've no idea.
What do you mean?
Well, he never let me
near any of that.
What were you,
some kind of 1940s housewife?
No, I was an independent woman
with my own income, Jenny.
Has Megan not been
in touch about it?
She said she would go through
all of that after the funeral.
I can't wait that long.
Jenny?
Right.
You know I can't discuss
the will with you, Jenny?
I'm the executor, Megan,
all the rest can wait,
it would just be very helpful
to the girls
to have an idea now.
Um, I'm about to pop, and I've--
I've made some bad investments.
Please?
Okay.
Thank you.
Although there are no
liquid assets, Denis did
make a life assurance
allowance for Anna and Grace,
for the sum of 100,000
Euro each.
Oh, thank God.
Wait, what is it,
what's the matter?
It's considerably less
in your case Jenny.
A total sum of 10,000 Euro.
Of course.
I should have known.
Known what?
He never did love me
as much as them.
Sometimes things just happen,
and you don't know why.
What kind of things?
Just things,
all kinds of things.
But it's not, it's not what
they are that matters
so much as how you deal
with them.
Em, Calum, could you, could you
put your phone down for a sec?
I'm trying to
It's like
I love you both, very much.
I'll always be with you,
even when I'm not here.
We love you too Dad.
Dad is sick.
How sick?
I have cancer.
Can they make you better?
How long?
Two, maybe three months.
Why didn't you have
any treatment?
There wasn't any point.
You could have still tried.
Yeah.
Yeah, but I
I wanted to spend time with you
all here and not in a hospital,
you know, hooked up to machines.
-I have to go.
-Okay.
[Jenny]
It's written there
in black and white.
He loved them literally
ten times more than me.
That's not true.
Do you really think he
would have done this to them?
Let them risk everything?
Look, I think I can scrape
together about 30k I think.
It's not enough.
No, I know, I know.
I'll talk to Frank.
There's nothing in the business
accounts, he told me already.
Did Denis say what had gone
wrong with the estate?
No.
Just that someone had
landed him in the shit.
Did he say who?
No.
Whoever it was landed me
in there with him.
[Grace]
Two coffees, one tea.
Iris still staring?
Mm-hmm.
In fairness, the Ahern
family misfortunes are
the gossip gift that
just keeps giving.
Oh, heads up!
Grace, I was just
checking that you're
still coming this evening?
Oh my God I
Completely forgot.
I've a lot of work
on here actually,
so it might be a bit tricky.
Please come.
This place is too small for us
to avoid each other, please.
Fine.
Sorry.
I'll see you this evening.
Oh to be a fly on that wall.
I'll behave myself.
Yep.
Jenny?
Hey, I wasn't sure if
it was you or not.
Michael?
What are you doing here?
I saw the obituary in
the paper, so, I thought
I'd come to pay my respects.
You're pregnant!
Just a bit.
Congratulations.
Thanks.
So how have you been?
Have you been sick or?
No, it's good.
Blood pressure a bit high,
but, you know, when wasn't it?
And the father,
do I know him or
Uh, no, it's not, em,
we're not together.
Sorry.
No, no, I wanted to
do it that way.
Do it on my own.
Not -- obviously --
it would -- if it was us,
you know
It's fine.
So, uh, how about you,
how's the music venue?
Good, well, great actually.
We're hoping to open up a new
one in Cork in the summer.
-That's brilliant.
-Happy days.
Yeah, I'm so happy for you.
Well, look, I'd like-- I'd like
to get you something,
you know, for the baby,
is there anything you need?
Em, actually,
I am in a bit of trouble.
What kind of trouble?
Do you really think that
I would let him put Jenny
in jeopardy like that?
She's like a daughter to me,
you know that.
I know that but you didn't try
to stop her from investing.
That's when I thought everything
was all right with the place.
And then he asked her for more?
Knowing that
the ship was sinking?
Knowing what she was risking?
What a prick!
What was going on up there?
The usual Denis malarkey.
Cutting corners,
trying to save money.
Anyone lit a match anywhere
near those houses,
they would have
gone up like a fireball.
I tried to tell him,
but you know what he was like.
Do you know who shopped him in?
He'd enemies up
and down the coast.
Could have been anyone.
Hmm
Listen, I, um
I know you
had your differences,
but, um, I thought you might
like to have this.
I cannot believe
he'd do this to you.
Knowing you've got a baby
on the way like it's just
It was my choice.
Oh, I'm sure he was being
his usual manipulative self.
You were never his biggest fan.
Yeah, our disregard
was mutual I suppose.
Okay, do you know
that when I told him
I was going to propose to you,
he tried to convince me
to walk away?
He called me a glorified busker,
he even offered me money.
What?
He tried to-- to pay you
to leave me?
Yeah, I suppose
he thought he knew
what was best for you obviously.
I mean, I knew he didn't
approve, but I didn't care.
We were really good together,
that's all that mattered.
Do you think if we didn't try
so hard for so long,
to have a baby,
that I don't know,
we'd still be together?
It's what we wanted.
You were what I wanted.
Anyway
That's water under the bridge.
Yeah.
Look, to be honest,
I have invested every cent
I have into this venue,
I just I don't have
that kind of cash.
It's fine.
Is there anything else I can do?
No, I-- I'll sort it.
My family's mess is not yours
to clean up anymore.
Look, I'm I'm really happy
for you.
Thanks.
It's been eight weeks,
that's good, right?
That's a good sign?
Just let her do her job.
-I better go.
-Yeah.
I am so sorry.
It's a missed miscarriage,
where the fetus has
stopped growing,
but the body
hasn't realized it yet.
-[cries]
-It's okay.
[Jacob] Do you think
there's anything after?
Well, I hope so.
I reckon
it's just like being asleep.
Well, that's not so bad.
I know it's a lot to take in,
but I'll be there, and Calum,
and we can all face it together,
okay?
And Elaine?
Will she be there too?
If you want her to be.
Do you want her to be?
I don't know.
Will it make you sad
if I say yes?
No, my love.
Nothing you could ever say
could make me sad.
[Joe] You made it, hey,
thanks for coming.
-Happy birthday.
-Thank you.
After you.
So this is Lily,
this is Max, this is Grace.
I'm really glad you made it.
Oh, uh, congratulations.
-Ah.
-Thank you.
Great, let's sit,
let's sit. Let's eat.
What are we thinking?
-Some wine?
-Oh, yeah, please.
So do you feel different?
Bit nauseous.
But you know you have another
person inside of you,
another heart beating.
It's just amazing.
Isn't it amazing?
Mm-hmm.
You have to see the scan.
-Oh, really.
-Can he see it?
-Do you mind if I?
-Sure.
It's very cute.
See?
Oh, look.
Oh, look, it looks
very like Joe, doesn't it?
[laughs]
Yeah, he does all right.
Oh, em
So when's your next scan?
Um, another eight weeks.
It's a funny thing really.
H-How do you mean?
I was once having a baby
with Joe too.
Grace, don't.
The baby would be seven now.
Joe?
Cathy.
Cathy!
What the fuck
are you looking at?
[Elaine]
Thanks for this.
[Anna]
Not at all, thank you.
I'll only be a few hours.
Well, it's no problem.
Hey, happy birthday by the way.
Jacob told me.
Thank you.
You know, I was married to Rory,
I can tell when he's not well.
He has cancer.
Is it treatable?
Oh, God, Anna, I'm so sorry.
Do the boys know?
We only told them this morning,
so they're still processing.
Jacob is very upset.
And Calum?
You know, hard to tell,
it's all teenage macho man.
It's usually the ones who bottle
it up that I worry about.
You don't need to worry at all,
I'll make sure he's okay.
[door opens]
All set?
-Can you do me a favour?
-Sure.
Just don't make any promises
you can't keep, for his sake.
[Carl]
She should have just
told Denis where to go.
Easier said than done.
He could be very persuasive
when he wanted something.
Jesus though, to allow
her to risk everything
like that,
and she expecting a child
on her own.
[phone buzzes]
Honestly, trying to keep this
family afloat is impossible.
Everywhere I turn there's just
more water needs to be bailed.
Maybe you should take
a step back then.
You know what they say about
there are no living martyrs,
so is-if this is too much
for you then
I didn't say it was too much.
No, but it is affecting
your life, it is affecting
your relationships.
Everything. So when
is it going to be enough?
I can't just turn
my back, can I?
Especially on Jenny, not now.
Do you really want me
to be visiting my
grandchild behind bars?
Maybe I can help.
[scoffs] Not unless
you have 70k to spare.
What if I do?
Why would you do that?
Em not-not everyone
has an ulterior motive, Val,
you know, sometimes
an act of kindness is just that.
So there was something
you wanted to talk to me about?
Um
Science camp, uh,
the board have decided
the numbers aren't enough.
The-- The numbers are exactly
the same as last year.
No, it's done.
No point fighting.
What is-- What is worth
fighting for around here, Val?
Do you even know?
You're angry with him.
He just lies, cheats all
the time, covering his tracks.
Do you think not telling
somebody something is
the same as lying to them?
Yeah, I do.
Because it changes
how you see them.
What if when he's dead,
all I can remember
are the bad things?
[waves crashing]
I was wondering when you
were going to apologize.
I'm here for Grace actually.
Look can we just get
past this, please?
I mean right now I have
the world on my back and I don't
need you in the saddle too.
Apology accepted.
[plates breaking]
We're not having
the best of days.
Was the dinner that bad?
Worse.
I made a complete eejit
of myself.
I want to be happy for them,
like I really do,
but I just can't.
Did you take your meds?
Yes, Mam!
Jesus, it's not all
about taking the meds.
Isn't it normal to be
a bit upset when your
ex-boyfriend has a baby
with your best friend?
Yes of course it is,
it is completely normal.
Off you go, or you'll be late.
-Do I have to?
-Yes, you do.
She is your sister.
Right.
[laughter]
So you really can't swim at all?
No, I can't.
It's kind of funny being here
as well not being able to swim.
Yeah, hilarious actually.
So, uh, if I just like,
I mean I'm not like forcing
you to or anything,
-but if I were to just push
you into the water.
-Yeah.
No, actually I don't think so,
I think we should go back so.
Are you sure, I think we
should go directly into
the water, no
[laughter]
[phone buzzing]
I don't want to lie to you.
Okay.
Those guys I beat up
at the beach,
that wasn't the first time.
What do you mean?
Back in my old school,
there were these two guys
that would beat up me
and this other boy,
just day in day out, for months.
And one day I just snapped
and they ended up in hospital.
My dad got the parents to drop
the charges on the condition
that I left the school.
Will we head back?
Yeah.
I don't know, it's just weird,
I've never seen Frank
like that before.
-Like what?
-Angry, I didn't know
he had it in him.
Well, maybe it's guilt,
there was definitely
something going on
with them at the party.
Himself and Dad were
really going at each other,
about the business I think.
Maybe he said some
things he regrets now.
I don't know.
Listen, I'm so sorry,
I have completely forgot,
I've got to be somewhere,
I'll swing back for you, okay?
Mam?
[Val] So, Megan, were there any
recent changes to Denis' will?
Yeah, Denis asked me last
month to amend his will,
he didn't want Frank
receiving anything.
-Do you have any idea why?
-[Megan] No.
I learned a long time ago to
just do as I was told where
Denis was concerned.
You know that.
Thanks, Megan, I owe you one.
[doorbell ringing]
-Val.
-What did you do?
What do you mean?
Denis didn't always treat
you well, I know that.
So whatever went down
between you this time must
have been pretty bad.
You shopped him in, didn't you?
Yeah.
There were families about
to move into those houses,
okay, people
with kids depending on them.
They would have lost everything
if I hadn't pulled the plug.
-No, no, Frank,
it was more than that.
-Yeah, yeah, of course it was.
I wanted Denis to realize
that he couldn't keep
messing people around.
Okay, I thought
he'd take a financial hit,
God knows he deserved it.
You didn't give a shit
about those families
and their new homes.
He cut you out of the loop
and it hurt your pride.
You're unbelievable.
Oh, and for what it's worth.
I wiped all his hard drives,
I burned any paper trail
I could find,
anything that would
incriminate Denis.
So what, you want me
to thank you now, do you?
Yes, I do actually.
Just once.
A thank you would be nice
for everything I've done
for this family.
Just once.
[door closes]
Oh, yes!
Oh.
Here.
Are you okay?
Dad's going to die.
Yeah, I know.
I'll I'll have two mums
I guess?
That's true.
That is, if you still want
to be our mum?
Of course I do.
Why wouldn't I?
Hey, you can say it,
whatever it is, it's okay.
It's just,
you didn't want us before,
and I was wondering
why you want us now?
I never not wanted you,
not for one second.
That's not what Mum said.
What did she say?
That you weren't ready for it.
I heard her tell Denis that
we were better off without you.
Sorry.
You have nothing to be sorry
about, do you hear me?
Don't you worry
about anything now,
I'm going to be around
for as long as you want me
to be, okay?
Yeah?
Do you think I could have a hug?
[Calum] You haven't said
anything in a while.
I've just been thinking.
That was really brave.
Yeah?
Yeah.
We've all done things
that we're not proud of.
You, me, your dad
It's what you do next
that counts though, Calum.
You should try make some good
memories while you still can.
I've got to go to work.
Yeah.
Bye.
Why the hell would you give
him more money without
checking with me first?
Hello to you too.
No, I mean it, Jen,
what were you thinking?
-You should have asked me first.
-He told me not to.
He said it would be back
in my account before
anyone would need to know.
Yeah, because he knew
I wouldn't let it happen.
Just stop, will you?
It's bad enough
without you having a go at me.
Do you know the saddest thing?
I actually felt, flattered.
Like that out of all of us
he came to me for help.
God, how could I be so stupid?
Come here.
We'll find a way out, I promise.
-I'm sorry.
-No, no, no.
Don't be sorry.
He just used you.
Same way he used all of us.
Dad?
Dad?
Dad?
Dad?
Dad!
Dad!
Dad?
Wake up, wake up Dad!
Look at me.
I'm stuck in the bath
like a tool just waiting for
someone to help me get out.
Here.
[sighs]
I'm sorry.
Me too.
I'm so sorry.
It's okay.
[sobbing]
I'm here. I'm here.
Let's have a birthday lunch they
said, it'll be fun they said,
then they don't turn up.
-Happy birthday.
-Thanks.
Are you all right?
You look like hell.
Oh, gee, thanks.
Hey, happy birthday.
Thanks.
-Where's Grace?
-Oh, she's in the ladies.
So what are we drinking?
I'm way ahead of you,
on my second glass of wine.
Yeah, actually, can we order,
just I've to be back at
the hospital
at 3 o'clock for a check-up.
I'm sorry, am I delaying you?
-You've been here all
of 30 seconds.
-What is up with you?
I've other things I could
be doing besides sitting here
like a total inconvenience.
No one thinks that.
Maybe we should
just cancel altogether,
it's weird with Dad anyway.
No, no, no, no that's exactly
why we're not cancelling.
Look, with everything
that's going on right now
I just wanted us
to have a nice time together.
Says the woman looking through
her rose coloured glasses!
-Excuse me?
-You do have a habit of only
seeing what you want to see Mam.
Happy birthday, what did I miss?
Did you really not know
he was leaving me
less than the girls in his will?
What?
Of course I didn't know.
Well, you should have.
You shouldn't have enabled him.
You should have protected us.
Protected you?
Are you kidding me?
You were more than happy
to be involved in his
money making schemes
so long as you profited from it.
-Mum!
-And you?
You-- You ran to him every
time you needed something done
-and didn't want
to get your hands dirty.
-Go easy, Mum.
No, no, he let you use the cafe
for over a year rent free.
You said it yourself,
if you didn't have that place
you don't know
what you would have done.
So don't sit there accusing me.
None of you minded his dodgy
dealings so long as you
benefited from them.
Can we just eat?
I'm not really hungry any more.
Jesus, just forget it.
-I've other things
I could be doing.
-Lads.
Would you just stop acting
like a child and sit down.
You're acting like
everything's fine when
clearly it's anything but.
I think my water's just broke.
What?
-Don't just sit there!
-Okay.
-Come on, come on, just breathe.
-[groans]
Is it another one?
How far apart was that?
Would someone bloody time them?
You know what,
you need to calm down.
You know-- You know, I bet
all the stress about
the money has put you
into labour in the first place.
For all the good it did me.
But I think I might
have the solution.
Carl has offered
to lend us the money.
-Really?
-Yeah, really.
Now we have
to pay him back of course.
Oh, thank you.
Oh, thank him, thank God.
Fucking Dad!
-I'm bleeding.
-Oh, Jesus.
-No, no, no, no.
-No, come on now.
Come on. Grace,
put your foot down.
Come on, we've got this.
Jesus Christ.
-Come on, come on.
-[honking]
Rory?
Val isn't here.
She's not here at the moment.
It's actually your eldest
I was looking for.
I need you to come down to
the station Calum, just to
answer a couple of questions.
-Okay, I'm coming with you.
-No.
It's grand.
You need a rest.
-No.
-No, it's okay, seriously.
It's fine, yeah.
Yeah, there's nothing
to worry about.
I'll have him back
in time for his tea.
It's fine, seriously,
you rest, yeah?
C-Calum
I'll phone your mum
and she'll come down
to the station, yeah?
[phone ringing]
Oh, God can you just turn off
your mobile phone please.
It's Rory, I'll call him back.
The blood most likely means
that the placenta is detaching,
which means that the baby
could be deprived of oxygen.
No, no, no you're just going to
breathe, come on now, come on.
I ignored all the signs.
There was the headaches,
there was my blood pressure.
It's not, come on.
None of it matters, does it?
-If anything
happens to this baby
-Just breathe.
If anything,
if anything happens to me.
You have to tell Michael.
Michael? Why?
He deserves to know.
I used one of our embryos,
Michael had already left.
I felt I had nothing
to hold on to.
You stole the embryo?
No, I didn't steal it.
Why didn't you discuss it
with anyone?
-I did.
-Denis!
I knew, I knew that you would
try to talk me out of it,
that embryo was half mine.
Ah
It's coming, it's coming,
the baby's coming.
Please hurry!
[waves crashing]
-[Denis] Enjoying the party?
-[Frank] Nah.
you know yourself,
getting older.
Makes you realize
certain things.
How so?
Who's got your back?
Who's waiting to
stick a knife in it?
Did you really think
it wouldn't get back to me?
Your noble betrayal.
-Denis, look
-We'll speak, but not now.
What was it Mam used to say?
No good deed goes unpunished.
And if I see a sign
in the sky tonight
No one's gonna tell me
it's a trick of the light
May never come
but I'm willing to wait
What can I say?
I'm a man of the faith
And there's an ocean
in my body
And there's a river
in my soul
And I'm crying
And we carry the sun
