Love/Hate (2010) s04e03 Episode Script
Episode 3
You go into her house, tie her, hold her at gunpoint.
Jesus Christ, that devil mask.
Fuckin' Fran.
Fran was wearing the devil mask, was he? That Tommy dope ratted me out.
Fran, he didn't rat you out.
How's everything going? I don't want to be seen talking to you.
This is my number.
Call me, day or night.
This is proper freaking me out, luv.
I'm going to talk to somebody about it.
Fuck it.
I'll tell you what he wants.
That stuff you use, lidocaine.
I can't.
Why not? It's legal for you.
It's your ma.
She's in hospital.
Is she alright? She'd a bit of a stroke.
Stroke.
(MOANING) Tommy.
Tommy, are you okay in there? Stay still a second.
You poor thing.
It's bad, is it? Yeah.
I can't give you anything until the doctor sees you.
Have you had the bleeding before? Yeah.
And the headaches? Yeah.
As bad as tonight? No.
Okay.
Okay.
How was she? She was alright.
That's yours.
That's me for the next couple of days, alright.
She must've been happy to see you.
No, she was asleep.
Where are you staying? All over.
You don't need to know.
It's no five star accommodation, that's for sure.
If that's what you're worried about.
I'm not.
I thought you'd be here for Warren's Communion.
I'm here for it, aren't I.
And what about after it? I'll have security.
I can't be here Trish, when there's a threat hanging over me.
I thought it was sorted.
No.
I can feel it, I can smell it.
I just can't see it.
It's not going to stop us having a day out for Warren's Communion.
How much longer do you think? I don't know.
Sure if I was in the army it'd be the same, wouldn't it.
No-one's going to get me.
That's why I'm on the move.
I'd be no use to you dead, would I? Not a bad likeness all the same.
Fuck off Aido.
I'm not a bleedin' rat.
I never said you were.
I'm going to head off.
The copper wouldn't even give me my charge sheet.
Tell him.
You had an ounce on you.
I know I did.
I was there.
Tell him I'll meet him anyplace, anywhere.
He can put me blindfolded in a boot and then he'll know.
What's the story with me, can I not talk to him? He doesn't want to talk to you.
Says you're benched.
Why? He thinks you're a rat.
Tommy! Would you mind waiting here.
I don't know where he's going.
Tommy! What are you doing? Getting the bus.
I said I'd come pick you up.
Ah yeah.
I forgot.
I've a taxi waiting for us.
Great.
It's a bleedin' disgrace.
Some fucker ramroads me, opens up on me with a sawn off and I'm the one gets put in for the night.
You can say that on video and we'll put it in your statement.
That fucker wants to get his license taken off him.
Sure Noely's going back inside.
He's in court this morning.
If this the way the country's run I don't know why I pay my fuckin' tax at all.
This Tommy thing is okay, yeah? Ah yeah.
He might get a couple of years but the cops fucked one or two things that I'm looking into.
And does it hold weight, him naming Fran? I don't think there's a problem there for Fran.
But you never know.
Fuck sake Dave.
Don't say that in front of him.
Tell him there's no fuckin' problem.
There's no problem.
Yeah.
Don't be fuckin' creating a problem for me.
I want to calm the prick down, not wind him up.
Frano, there he is now! Not a bleedin' mark on you.
Want a pint? A pint over here pal! Are you getting a new van? Nah.
Dean's getting it fixed for me.
Not worth shite getting rid of it.
There was two of them, yeah? Yeah.
He took the shotgun out of yer man's hands.
This fuckin' animal.
What was he having a go at your for? A few things.
I fucked his mot.
He's not even still with her.
Otherwise I'd be trying to fuck her again to do his head in.
He's back inside, is he? Yeah.
I'll catch up with him again sometime.
Mouldy aul' ride she was anyway.
Wasn't worth getting these knocked out of me.
Have a word with my guy.
Yeah, I will.
There we go.
Have a rinse out there.
You still need to keep an eye on those hairline cracks.
It's fine for now buy maybe we should think about crowns down the road.
All I'm asking you is to listen to Dave.
I'm listening to him.
But you haven't.
Did I interrupt you Dave? Did I? Am I not sitting here listening to all you have to say? Fran, Dave's been in the game years.
I don't give a bollix.
No of fence Dave.
I fuckin' don't know you.
You're representing me but I don't know you.
He's top notch Fran.
I'm not saying he's not.
Then listen to what he has to say.
It's easy for you to say.
It's not you that dopey fuck named.
It'd be a different story then, wouldn't it.
Dave, would you mind? I've to make a couple of calls.
I'll be outside.
Cheers.
What do you want to do Frano? Want to fuckin' clip Tommy? It'd be a fuckin' start.
He's gone in the head anyway.
Fuck off and don't be annoying me.
He's married to Siobhan, he's family and he's a pal.
Jaysus Nidgy, don't make me laugh.
Family? Who the fuck knocked the bollocks out of him and put him in hospital? The bleedin' tooth fairy? I'll be honest with you.
Some people can do their time.
But it's fuckin' rough being locked up.
If I have to do it, I'll do it.
But doing it for nothing, because some brain-dead fuck is missing a bit of his oblong fuckin' delata.
That won't happen no matter who he's friends with.
Listen Frano, I've been around this game a lot longer than you.
There's no panic.
See me panicking? We've got a good thing going here.
A bit of cash.
We've this dentist dope bringing in gear under the radar and we're all laughing.
But not a fuckin' hair.
When were you in hospital Tommy? Yesterday it was.
Why? Why was I in hospital? Cos of this headache.
Fuckin' killing me.
And my ear was bleedin'.
Fuck this.
What are you doing here? You're giving me a pain in the bollix.
I don't know what you're at but it's not working.
I'm not doing anything, pal.
Fuck off and don't be annoying me.
Would you give Miriam Daly a call in the morning and ask her to come in for the new braces fitting.
I want to make sure we can get her up to date on her payments.
Yeah sure.
I'll give her a call.
See you tomorrow.
Have you a second Annemarie? Yeah.
Are you not happy here? What? No, I'm totally happy.
You seem to be second guessing me every time I'm with a patient.
I don't think they all need crowns.
Well you're not the fuckin' dentist.
You're the nurse.
So unless you want to go to college and do the full 7 years, I'm about as much interested in your opinion as I am in Mary's.
Terry.
Are you alright, my aul' pal? The misses not letting you slip her the old "once a week"? Terry.
Come on.
We'll go outside for a smoke.
Gav.
Bring the smokes.
Fuckin' shitting myself.
The nerves are gone.
Fuckin' 20 years ago I'd have went out and fuckin' decked him.
That'd be the end of it.
Standing there, grinning at me.
Knowing he's getting to me.
I thought this would stop.
The gaffer can't find out about this and you don't be saying it to him for extra brownie points.
Even if he knows, he doesn't want to know.
Alright, I'm checking in.
Can I take your name please? Delany.
Nigel.
Good girl.
Not long yet.
Stick on the monitor.
Dirty bastard.
You can't breathe, can you? Don't worry.
Come on.
What are you doing? Don't fuckin' kill him.
Sorry about that.
He doesn't know his own strength.
Have you got your breath there? That's what it feels like when you can't get your breath and you're drowning.
We could take you now and fuck you in the river.
No-one would know.
I don't want you around any more.
Are you sure about this thing? Getting rid of yer man? I'm not fuckin' going back in, that's for sure.
Pull him off the street, get him in the van.
He might think he knows but he won't.
I don't give a bollocks if he does.
Prick's not right in the head.
I'd say the bitch will go tonight Fran.
Yeah.
She's only gorgeous, isn't she Aido.
She's beautiful.
You're a real little stunner, Princess.
Try it with the other bag.
No.
Go on, I want to see.
I think I prefer the first one.
Where are you going? I have to head back to the gaff.
I have that thing in the morning, remember.
What'll I do Da? I don't know Eric.
Talk to him.
He won't talk to me.
The longer it goes on, the more he thinks I'm a rat.
I know he thinks I'm a rat cos I can't go near him cos I know I'll get done.
I can't go near him cos I'll get done so that makes him sure I'm one.
Jaysus son, I can't make head nor tail of what you're saying.
Will you go and talk to him for me? A new phone for you.
I'm in it already.
Got the two of them tomorrow? No, only Debs.
The other ones are all fuckin' sick.
Fuck sake.
It's a waste of bleedin' time.
I know.
We need a big haul again.
The cops are all over me.
I could ask Nadine.
She wants to do the run.
I might have a clean way in that the cops don't know about.
Hey, I'm outside now.
Sorry.
I was just in the middle of cooking something.
I was going to open the door with my own key but then I thought that might be a bit weird.
I'll be with you in a minute.
Sorry.
I'm nearly there.
The kids eat that? No.
They had pizza earlier.
It's ottalengi.
Finished.
What? Is everything okay? Moneywise.
You mean the cheques for the kids school fees.
The secretary rang me this morning.
Everything's fine.
They should've gone through.
There's money there.
How is that possible then? I don't know.
If we have to change schools we better do it now because.
Sinead's got exams next year.
No.
We're not taking them out of school.
Andrew, I'd prefer to know if things aren't going okay because.
.
Una, there's no problem.
Okay.
Everything's fine.
Okay? Hey, where are you going? It's late.
I'm going out for a bit.
Where? A bit of a run.
Oh Jesus.
Disgusting.
Fuckin' dirtbag.
Alright, it's me.
Yeah.
How's everything? Alright.
The same.
Did you get your suit back from the cleaners? Yeah.
Have you got a dose coming on? Yeah.
Can I talk to my little buddy? < He's asleep.
Alright.
Meet yis at the church, alright.
Yeah.
Alright then.
KNOCK ON DOOR.
Any luck? No, he wasn't there again last night.
Whose Facebook are you on? The Elmo fella.
He can't see it's you looking? No.
Is he saying anything? No.
< Excuse me.
Sorry.
Me? Yeah.
I just need you to open your bag please.
Why, am I in trouble? No.
It's just a spot check.
Okay.
Sure.
Where are you coming from? Liverpool.
My sister in Liverpool.
It's much handier coming this way than flying.
Sick of airports, the hassle.
Oh my God.
I could kill her.
She's always doing stuff like this.
She thinks that's funny.
You're okay.
Thanks.
That's what I told you.
The dildo trick.
It's been going years.
I think my sister first started it.
You're going to have to just go for it.
No, it'll take the skin off.
Do you have any water? No.
Just spit on it.
Do you want me to spit it on for you? Fuck.
Shut up.
You'll be here all fuckin' day.
Here.
Where are you going? To get the bus.
I'll give you a lift if you want.
Okay.
It's just I can't when Nadine's with me.
She does get jealous.
Do you need some? No, fuck off.
I'm off it.
Maybe an aul' smoke.
Come on, we'll go for a spin.
Why didn't they give him a scan in the hospital? I don't know Siobhan.
They really should have.
Just cos he's a prisoner, they don't pay attention.
They should've given him a scan.
I don't want to go back in.
I'll be grand.
What do you think about the bleeding? I'd be concerned about it.
His ear was bleeding before.
When was this? Last week and last month and a few times.
And he hasn't seen anybody about that, about bleeding at those times? No.
Eric.
You done nothing wrong, son.
Yeah, I'll talk to you.
Do you want a drink Nidge? What do you want Gerry? I just want to clear my son's name.
He's no rat.
Tell him Eric.
I swear to God Nidge.
I wouldn't.
I don't know what's going on.
I was begging them for my charge sheet.
That fuckin' pig was laughing his bollocks off.
That's all I can say.
The lad was set up.
You can see it with your own eyes.
Elmo, I don't know what's going on.
But I know if Gerry says you're not a rat, I know he thinks you're not.
I'm not.
But if Gerry goes guarantor on you and you're a busted flush, you know what's going to happen Elmo.
I know.
Alright, I believe you.
Thanks Nidge.
Going to have a pint? No, I have to head Gerry.
Thanks Nidge.
I'll walk you out.
Thanks.
I'm not a rat Nidge.
I'd hate to be.
I was looking at that graffiti on the wall and I was saying thank fuckin' God that's not me.
What graffiti? You're still barred, you know that Andrew.
Yeah.
He's on his way.
Thanks.
I put him inside in the office.
Any idea what this prick wants? Do you have my money, do you? No.
Look, you've probably done checks into my background.
What the fuck is this? Sorry.
I.
.
What? What do you want? I've been thinking.
My business is fucked.
The practice makes decent enough money but it's a lost cause.
The only thing keeping my head above water is the interest only.
The family home I transferred into the ex-wife's name 3 years ago so at least the kids have a roof over their heads.
She doesn't fuckin' work.
Doesn't care.
The only hope for me is to go to England and go bankrupt.
Fuck that.
I don't want to do that.
So when this happened, I thought it was a bad thing.
Then I thought maybe it's a good thing.
Then I thought, what's in it for me? I'll tell you what's in it for you.
You don't get your legs broke.
I don't mean like broke in half and you walk again.
I mean properly fuckin' splintered.
If I hadn't gone into property I'd be a good businessman.
I don't mean good.
I mean I'd be on the first fuckin' squad.
I'm an MBA.
I've worked as a management consultant.
I worked summers at stock brokers.
I know finance.
I can do all the paperwork.
I can organise.
I can make whatever you want to make work, work.
Why? I need the money.
So what do you want from me? I want you to cut me in.
And I'll do it all properly.
And I need a sub.
Of course you do.
Is that alright? Can you fix me up? Yeah.
I can do that.
Fuck sake.
Nadine.
What? Come here a minute, will you.
What? I have to get my hair done.
I thought Sheena was coming over.
She is.
She'll be here now.
I have to get my fi.
For fuck sake Aido.
I have to.
Go on then.
I thought you said you didn't need me at the church.
I don't want you at the church.
Her da's going to be there.
Fuck sake.
He's not going to Nidge's young fella's party, is he? No, he's not.
Go on.
I'll see you later.
What? It's just the young one that usually sells me her piss is not answering her phone.
For fuck sake.
If your piss is clean Nadine, I need it.
I thought you were clean.
I am.
It's just the benzos, they show up.
Where's the bottle? I have it upstairs.
I'll get it.
Body of Christ.
Amen.
Body of Christ.
Amen.
Body of Christ.
I thought you already had your bleedin' breakfast.
Sssh.
Stop.
Tastes like cardboard, doesn't it.
Could do with a bit of salt and vinegar.
Am I right buddy? Ketchup.
Alright Aido.
Alright.
Congratulations.
What? You're pregnant.
Get the fuck.
That's what your urine sample shows us.
You're pregnant so congratulations.
For fuck sake.
I'm reducing your dose from 80mls to 50mls until next week.
There'll be a male doctor here to ensure it's your own urine.
Here can you sort me out with Fi? That bitch doctor reduced my dose.
No problem, yeah.
Here Tommy.
How are you Fran.
Yeah man, good.
Just going to the shops.
Do you want a lift? No, it's only around the corner.
Come here.
I'm sorry I lost he head with you the last time we were talking.
I wanted to come around and say I was sorry.
You were right about that young one.
I shouldn't have worn that bleedin' mask.
I wasn't thinking.
I should've listened to you.
Remember you said that Siobhan does like the baby puppies.
She likes puppies.
One of my dogs had a litter of baby puppies a few weeks ago.
She'd love one I'd say.
We're going to Nidge's party for the young fella.
In the hotel? I'm going too.
We'll pick up the puppies, bring them back to Siobhan and I'll drop you at the party.
What do you think? Can we stop at the shop? Of course we can.
Hop in.
Tommy! Jaysus, that's a nice phone.
Tommy! Give us a look at it.
I might get one of them myself.
< This is Tommy.
Leave a message.
Tommy, where are you? What are you doing? Tommy, ring me! Come on, come on.
< The number you have dialled is no longer in service.
Please, please, please.
ANSWERING MACHINE.
.
Fuck.
Fuck.
Fuck.
< Emergency, which service? Police please.
< Connecting you now.
< Hello Police.
Hello.
Hello.
I'm looking for a detective.
< Which department do you need? No.
His name is Moynihan.
< What station? I don't know but he's a detective I think.
He's a detective.
< I'm sorry, I can't help you without his full name.
< Can you tell me what this is in relation to? No.
No, sorry.
I don't want you on that bouncy castle in your dress.
It'll get destroyed.
It won't.
It will.
It won't Ma.
Please.
Should've brought your track suit with me.
Do you want me to go back and get it? No, she's alright.
You may as well get the wear out of it.
Go on.
Try not to rip it.
Leave that tray down there when you're finished.
These are whopper nuggets Nidge.
They're made with real chicken.
Going out for a smoke.
Alright Nidge.
How are we doing? Fuckin' madness in there.
Cops.
Where? 012 green.
Yeah.
Keep your eyes on them.
The head bangers that are after me don't give a bollix if there's cops here.
Who the fuck is this? Alright Siobhan? You fuckin' prick.
What? What's the matter with you? Tommy.
What? Tommy! Is he alright? Where is he? Fran.
Alright, come on.
What's going on? Fuck knows.
She's not happy about something.
Will we go over? Trish.
Trish.
Look after Leyton.
Are you alright? Yeah.
Are you alright? What's the matter? Come on.
Stay on the door.
Stay on the door.
Dean.
Where are the dogs? Dean will show you where they are now.
PHONE RINGS.
.
Is that mine? What? The phone.
I can't find mine.
Did I not give it back to you? I think I did.
We can have a look after in the van.
Dean will bring you down to where the dogs are.
We'll pick which one we'll get for Siobhan.
Where is he? It's okay.
It's going to be okay.
Some bleedin' racket out here.
Tommy.
Want a smoke? Yeah.
Are you not going to smoke it? No, I'll save it for later.
PHONE RINGS.
Ah Nidgy.
Fuck off with your Nidgy.
You were seen.
What's that Nidgy? Seen where? Siobhan seen you and Tommy getting into your poxy fuckin' van.
Don't think so.
She saw you and Tommy getting into your van.
That'll stand up in court, will it? Fran please.
Please just let him bleedin' go, will you? Don't go near him.
I'm going to get Dave to give you a call.
What do I want to talk to Dave for? Siobhan, go out there for a second darlin' please.
You fucked off without hearing what he had to say.
Sure Dave's your man.
He looked into this cos I asked him to.
He said that the cops fucked up cos Tommy.
.
There's no way they can use anything he said cos when he's been interviewed.
.
He's brain-damaged so they shouldn't interview him on his own.
There had to be a social worker or someone with him.
One of the coppers fucked up so when he was asking him about you, yer man wasn't in the room.
So what? Whatever he said it can't be used.
Can't be brought up in court.
I'm going to call Dave on the other number.
You stay where you are.
Dave, come on.
Answer the fuckin' phone.
Nidge, what's the story.
Dave, thank fuck.
I can't talk but I need to know what sort of person should've been in with Tommy? Siobhan, for fuck sake.
I'm trying to sort this.
Dave, a person who's there cos Tommy's fucked in the head.
What is it? Appropriate adult.
Appropriate adult, that's all I need.
Keep your phone on, it's an emergency.
You're 100% on that? Yeah.
Great.
Appropriate adult.
What does that mean? < It means there's no way Tommy's statement can be used against you.
You can ring him or someone else.
Jesus Fran, Siobhan seen you with him and we're buddies.
Yeah? Me and you, we're going to go on and do good things.
I'm asking you Fran.
Fran please.
I'm asking you.
Yeah, go on.
It's alright.
You can tell her that Tommy was interested in buying a pup off me.
So it's sorted, yeah? I bleedin' told you it was.
What the fuck are you asking me again for? Fuckin' hell.
Come here.
It's okay.
It's okay.
It's okay.
I thought you wanted another one.
When did I ever say that? You're always saying it.
Fuck sake.
That's all I bleedin' need.
I don't know Nadine.
It could be good for us.
A little Aido running around the gaff.
Fuckin' women.
Pain in the hole.
That's all sorted anyway.
What do you want now? One more time, right.
(HIGH VOICE) How much did you get? How much did you get, was it a million? Go on.
Kids are doin' my bleedin' head in.
Alright buddy? Did you have a good day? Do you want a tissue? I think I've your dose coming in.

That means we know where he's going to be.
We can follow him.
We can get him at the funeral.
No.
Why? We'll wait, get him another time.
We're not getting him there.
Why not? Cos it's wrong.
I got everything sorted.
Fees are fine.
It's all completely fine.
I was waiting for a couple of things to come through and they did.
That's great.
I don't want you up when I get back.
You can't get up for school in the morning.
You're going out? Yeah.
I'm going to meet Helen and Jane in that new place.
Hiya Nidge.
It's Debbie.
Everything's going great with everything, you know.
With Aido.
I don't know who the fuck you are.
Come here to me, hun.
I'm so sorry to hear about your ma.
Are you alright? Yeah.
What's the story with yer man? He's alright.
He's asking me can he run a tab.
What do you think? Yeah, go on.
Do me a favour? Anything hun.
Tell that junkie crack whore not to be talking to me.
I don't know her.
I don't want to know her.
Fuckin' thinks she's special or something.
I'll talk to her.
They will understand.
You shall see the face of God and live.
Be not afraid.
I go before you always.
Come follow me.
And I will give you rest.
If you pass the raging waters in the sea you shall not drown.
If you walk amid the burning flames.
You shall not be harmed.
If you stand before the power of hell and death is at your side.
Know that I am with you through it all.
Be not afraid.
I go before you always.
Come follow me.
And I will give you rest.
: Tracey Carr, RTE 2013.
Jesus Christ, that devil mask.
Fuckin' Fran.
Fran was wearing the devil mask, was he? That Tommy dope ratted me out.
Fran, he didn't rat you out.
How's everything going? I don't want to be seen talking to you.
This is my number.
Call me, day or night.
This is proper freaking me out, luv.
I'm going to talk to somebody about it.
Fuck it.
I'll tell you what he wants.
That stuff you use, lidocaine.
I can't.
Why not? It's legal for you.
It's your ma.
She's in hospital.
Is she alright? She'd a bit of a stroke.
Stroke.
(MOANING) Tommy.
Tommy, are you okay in there? Stay still a second.
You poor thing.
It's bad, is it? Yeah.
I can't give you anything until the doctor sees you.
Have you had the bleeding before? Yeah.
And the headaches? Yeah.
As bad as tonight? No.
Okay.
Okay.
How was she? She was alright.
That's yours.
That's me for the next couple of days, alright.
She must've been happy to see you.
No, she was asleep.
Where are you staying? All over.
You don't need to know.
It's no five star accommodation, that's for sure.
If that's what you're worried about.
I'm not.
I thought you'd be here for Warren's Communion.
I'm here for it, aren't I.
And what about after it? I'll have security.
I can't be here Trish, when there's a threat hanging over me.
I thought it was sorted.
No.
I can feel it, I can smell it.
I just can't see it.
It's not going to stop us having a day out for Warren's Communion.
How much longer do you think? I don't know.
Sure if I was in the army it'd be the same, wouldn't it.
No-one's going to get me.
That's why I'm on the move.
I'd be no use to you dead, would I? Not a bad likeness all the same.
Fuck off Aido.
I'm not a bleedin' rat.
I never said you were.
I'm going to head off.
The copper wouldn't even give me my charge sheet.
Tell him.
You had an ounce on you.
I know I did.
I was there.
Tell him I'll meet him anyplace, anywhere.
He can put me blindfolded in a boot and then he'll know.
What's the story with me, can I not talk to him? He doesn't want to talk to you.
Says you're benched.
Why? He thinks you're a rat.
Tommy! Would you mind waiting here.
I don't know where he's going.
Tommy! What are you doing? Getting the bus.
I said I'd come pick you up.
Ah yeah.
I forgot.
I've a taxi waiting for us.
Great.
It's a bleedin' disgrace.
Some fucker ramroads me, opens up on me with a sawn off and I'm the one gets put in for the night.
You can say that on video and we'll put it in your statement.
That fucker wants to get his license taken off him.
Sure Noely's going back inside.
He's in court this morning.
If this the way the country's run I don't know why I pay my fuckin' tax at all.
This Tommy thing is okay, yeah? Ah yeah.
He might get a couple of years but the cops fucked one or two things that I'm looking into.
And does it hold weight, him naming Fran? I don't think there's a problem there for Fran.
But you never know.
Fuck sake Dave.
Don't say that in front of him.
Tell him there's no fuckin' problem.
There's no problem.
Yeah.
Don't be fuckin' creating a problem for me.
I want to calm the prick down, not wind him up.
Frano, there he is now! Not a bleedin' mark on you.
Want a pint? A pint over here pal! Are you getting a new van? Nah.
Dean's getting it fixed for me.
Not worth shite getting rid of it.
There was two of them, yeah? Yeah.
He took the shotgun out of yer man's hands.
This fuckin' animal.
What was he having a go at your for? A few things.
I fucked his mot.
He's not even still with her.
Otherwise I'd be trying to fuck her again to do his head in.
He's back inside, is he? Yeah.
I'll catch up with him again sometime.
Mouldy aul' ride she was anyway.
Wasn't worth getting these knocked out of me.
Have a word with my guy.
Yeah, I will.
There we go.
Have a rinse out there.
You still need to keep an eye on those hairline cracks.
It's fine for now buy maybe we should think about crowns down the road.
All I'm asking you is to listen to Dave.
I'm listening to him.
But you haven't.
Did I interrupt you Dave? Did I? Am I not sitting here listening to all you have to say? Fran, Dave's been in the game years.
I don't give a bollix.
No of fence Dave.
I fuckin' don't know you.
You're representing me but I don't know you.
He's top notch Fran.
I'm not saying he's not.
Then listen to what he has to say.
It's easy for you to say.
It's not you that dopey fuck named.
It'd be a different story then, wouldn't it.
Dave, would you mind? I've to make a couple of calls.
I'll be outside.
Cheers.
What do you want to do Frano? Want to fuckin' clip Tommy? It'd be a fuckin' start.
He's gone in the head anyway.
Fuck off and don't be annoying me.
He's married to Siobhan, he's family and he's a pal.
Jaysus Nidgy, don't make me laugh.
Family? Who the fuck knocked the bollocks out of him and put him in hospital? The bleedin' tooth fairy? I'll be honest with you.
Some people can do their time.
But it's fuckin' rough being locked up.
If I have to do it, I'll do it.
But doing it for nothing, because some brain-dead fuck is missing a bit of his oblong fuckin' delata.
That won't happen no matter who he's friends with.
Listen Frano, I've been around this game a lot longer than you.
There's no panic.
See me panicking? We've got a good thing going here.
A bit of cash.
We've this dentist dope bringing in gear under the radar and we're all laughing.
But not a fuckin' hair.
When were you in hospital Tommy? Yesterday it was.
Why? Why was I in hospital? Cos of this headache.
Fuckin' killing me.
And my ear was bleedin'.
Fuck this.
What are you doing here? You're giving me a pain in the bollix.
I don't know what you're at but it's not working.
I'm not doing anything, pal.
Fuck off and don't be annoying me.
Would you give Miriam Daly a call in the morning and ask her to come in for the new braces fitting.
I want to make sure we can get her up to date on her payments.
Yeah sure.
I'll give her a call.
See you tomorrow.
Have you a second Annemarie? Yeah.
Are you not happy here? What? No, I'm totally happy.
You seem to be second guessing me every time I'm with a patient.
I don't think they all need crowns.
Well you're not the fuckin' dentist.
You're the nurse.
So unless you want to go to college and do the full 7 years, I'm about as much interested in your opinion as I am in Mary's.
Terry.
Are you alright, my aul' pal? The misses not letting you slip her the old "once a week"? Terry.
Come on.
We'll go outside for a smoke.
Gav.
Bring the smokes.
Fuckin' shitting myself.
The nerves are gone.
Fuckin' 20 years ago I'd have went out and fuckin' decked him.
That'd be the end of it.
Standing there, grinning at me.
Knowing he's getting to me.
I thought this would stop.
The gaffer can't find out about this and you don't be saying it to him for extra brownie points.
Even if he knows, he doesn't want to know.
Alright, I'm checking in.
Can I take your name please? Delany.
Nigel.
Good girl.
Not long yet.
Stick on the monitor.
Dirty bastard.
You can't breathe, can you? Don't worry.
Come on.
What are you doing? Don't fuckin' kill him.
Sorry about that.
He doesn't know his own strength.
Have you got your breath there? That's what it feels like when you can't get your breath and you're drowning.
We could take you now and fuck you in the river.
No-one would know.
I don't want you around any more.
Are you sure about this thing? Getting rid of yer man? I'm not fuckin' going back in, that's for sure.
Pull him off the street, get him in the van.
He might think he knows but he won't.
I don't give a bollocks if he does.
Prick's not right in the head.
I'd say the bitch will go tonight Fran.
Yeah.
She's only gorgeous, isn't she Aido.
She's beautiful.
You're a real little stunner, Princess.
Try it with the other bag.
No.
Go on, I want to see.
I think I prefer the first one.
Where are you going? I have to head back to the gaff.
I have that thing in the morning, remember.
What'll I do Da? I don't know Eric.
Talk to him.
He won't talk to me.
The longer it goes on, the more he thinks I'm a rat.
I know he thinks I'm a rat cos I can't go near him cos I know I'll get done.
I can't go near him cos I'll get done so that makes him sure I'm one.
Jaysus son, I can't make head nor tail of what you're saying.
Will you go and talk to him for me? A new phone for you.
I'm in it already.
Got the two of them tomorrow? No, only Debs.
The other ones are all fuckin' sick.
Fuck sake.
It's a waste of bleedin' time.
I know.
We need a big haul again.
The cops are all over me.
I could ask Nadine.
She wants to do the run.
I might have a clean way in that the cops don't know about.
Hey, I'm outside now.
Sorry.
I was just in the middle of cooking something.
I was going to open the door with my own key but then I thought that might be a bit weird.
I'll be with you in a minute.
Sorry.
I'm nearly there.
The kids eat that? No.
They had pizza earlier.
It's ottalengi.
Finished.
What? Is everything okay? Moneywise.
You mean the cheques for the kids school fees.
The secretary rang me this morning.
Everything's fine.
They should've gone through.
There's money there.
How is that possible then? I don't know.
If we have to change schools we better do it now because.
Sinead's got exams next year.
No.
We're not taking them out of school.
Andrew, I'd prefer to know if things aren't going okay because.
.
Una, there's no problem.
Okay.
Everything's fine.
Okay? Hey, where are you going? It's late.
I'm going out for a bit.
Where? A bit of a run.
Oh Jesus.
Disgusting.
Fuckin' dirtbag.
Alright, it's me.
Yeah.
How's everything? Alright.
The same.
Did you get your suit back from the cleaners? Yeah.
Have you got a dose coming on? Yeah.
Can I talk to my little buddy? < He's asleep.
Alright.
Meet yis at the church, alright.
Yeah.
Alright then.
KNOCK ON DOOR.
Any luck? No, he wasn't there again last night.
Whose Facebook are you on? The Elmo fella.
He can't see it's you looking? No.
Is he saying anything? No.
< Excuse me.
Sorry.
Me? Yeah.
I just need you to open your bag please.
Why, am I in trouble? No.
It's just a spot check.
Okay.
Sure.
Where are you coming from? Liverpool.
My sister in Liverpool.
It's much handier coming this way than flying.
Sick of airports, the hassle.
Oh my God.
I could kill her.
She's always doing stuff like this.
She thinks that's funny.
You're okay.
Thanks.
That's what I told you.
The dildo trick.
It's been going years.
I think my sister first started it.
You're going to have to just go for it.
No, it'll take the skin off.
Do you have any water? No.
Just spit on it.
Do you want me to spit it on for you? Fuck.
Shut up.
You'll be here all fuckin' day.
Here.
Where are you going? To get the bus.
I'll give you a lift if you want.
Okay.
It's just I can't when Nadine's with me.
She does get jealous.
Do you need some? No, fuck off.
I'm off it.
Maybe an aul' smoke.
Come on, we'll go for a spin.
Why didn't they give him a scan in the hospital? I don't know Siobhan.
They really should have.
Just cos he's a prisoner, they don't pay attention.
They should've given him a scan.
I don't want to go back in.
I'll be grand.
What do you think about the bleeding? I'd be concerned about it.
His ear was bleeding before.
When was this? Last week and last month and a few times.
And he hasn't seen anybody about that, about bleeding at those times? No.
Eric.
You done nothing wrong, son.
Yeah, I'll talk to you.
Do you want a drink Nidge? What do you want Gerry? I just want to clear my son's name.
He's no rat.
Tell him Eric.
I swear to God Nidge.
I wouldn't.
I don't know what's going on.
I was begging them for my charge sheet.
That fuckin' pig was laughing his bollocks off.
That's all I can say.
The lad was set up.
You can see it with your own eyes.
Elmo, I don't know what's going on.
But I know if Gerry says you're not a rat, I know he thinks you're not.
I'm not.
But if Gerry goes guarantor on you and you're a busted flush, you know what's going to happen Elmo.
I know.
Alright, I believe you.
Thanks Nidge.
Going to have a pint? No, I have to head Gerry.
Thanks Nidge.
I'll walk you out.
Thanks.
I'm not a rat Nidge.
I'd hate to be.
I was looking at that graffiti on the wall and I was saying thank fuckin' God that's not me.
What graffiti? You're still barred, you know that Andrew.
Yeah.
He's on his way.
Thanks.
I put him inside in the office.
Any idea what this prick wants? Do you have my money, do you? No.
Look, you've probably done checks into my background.
What the fuck is this? Sorry.
I.
.
What? What do you want? I've been thinking.
My business is fucked.
The practice makes decent enough money but it's a lost cause.
The only thing keeping my head above water is the interest only.
The family home I transferred into the ex-wife's name 3 years ago so at least the kids have a roof over their heads.
She doesn't fuckin' work.
Doesn't care.
The only hope for me is to go to England and go bankrupt.
Fuck that.
I don't want to do that.
So when this happened, I thought it was a bad thing.
Then I thought maybe it's a good thing.
Then I thought, what's in it for me? I'll tell you what's in it for you.
You don't get your legs broke.
I don't mean like broke in half and you walk again.
I mean properly fuckin' splintered.
If I hadn't gone into property I'd be a good businessman.
I don't mean good.
I mean I'd be on the first fuckin' squad.
I'm an MBA.
I've worked as a management consultant.
I worked summers at stock brokers.
I know finance.
I can do all the paperwork.
I can organise.
I can make whatever you want to make work, work.
Why? I need the money.
So what do you want from me? I want you to cut me in.
And I'll do it all properly.
And I need a sub.
Of course you do.
Is that alright? Can you fix me up? Yeah.
I can do that.
Fuck sake.
Nadine.
What? Come here a minute, will you.
What? I have to get my hair done.
I thought Sheena was coming over.
She is.
She'll be here now.
I have to get my fi.
For fuck sake Aido.
I have to.
Go on then.
I thought you said you didn't need me at the church.
I don't want you at the church.
Her da's going to be there.
Fuck sake.
He's not going to Nidge's young fella's party, is he? No, he's not.
Go on.
I'll see you later.
What? It's just the young one that usually sells me her piss is not answering her phone.
For fuck sake.
If your piss is clean Nadine, I need it.
I thought you were clean.
I am.
It's just the benzos, they show up.
Where's the bottle? I have it upstairs.
I'll get it.
Body of Christ.
Amen.
Body of Christ.
Amen.
Body of Christ.
I thought you already had your bleedin' breakfast.
Sssh.
Stop.
Tastes like cardboard, doesn't it.
Could do with a bit of salt and vinegar.
Am I right buddy? Ketchup.
Alright Aido.
Alright.
Congratulations.
What? You're pregnant.
Get the fuck.
That's what your urine sample shows us.
You're pregnant so congratulations.
For fuck sake.
I'm reducing your dose from 80mls to 50mls until next week.
There'll be a male doctor here to ensure it's your own urine.
Here can you sort me out with Fi? That bitch doctor reduced my dose.
No problem, yeah.
Here Tommy.
How are you Fran.
Yeah man, good.
Just going to the shops.
Do you want a lift? No, it's only around the corner.
Come here.
I'm sorry I lost he head with you the last time we were talking.
I wanted to come around and say I was sorry.
You were right about that young one.
I shouldn't have worn that bleedin' mask.
I wasn't thinking.
I should've listened to you.
Remember you said that Siobhan does like the baby puppies.
She likes puppies.
One of my dogs had a litter of baby puppies a few weeks ago.
She'd love one I'd say.
We're going to Nidge's party for the young fella.
In the hotel? I'm going too.
We'll pick up the puppies, bring them back to Siobhan and I'll drop you at the party.
What do you think? Can we stop at the shop? Of course we can.
Hop in.
Tommy! Jaysus, that's a nice phone.
Tommy! Give us a look at it.
I might get one of them myself.
< This is Tommy.
Leave a message.
Tommy, where are you? What are you doing? Tommy, ring me! Come on, come on.
< The number you have dialled is no longer in service.
Please, please, please.
ANSWERING MACHINE.
.
Fuck.
Fuck.
Fuck.
< Emergency, which service? Police please.
< Connecting you now.
< Hello Police.
Hello.
Hello.
I'm looking for a detective.
< Which department do you need? No.
His name is Moynihan.
< What station? I don't know but he's a detective I think.
He's a detective.
< I'm sorry, I can't help you without his full name.
< Can you tell me what this is in relation to? No.
No, sorry.
I don't want you on that bouncy castle in your dress.
It'll get destroyed.
It won't.
It will.
It won't Ma.
Please.
Should've brought your track suit with me.
Do you want me to go back and get it? No, she's alright.
You may as well get the wear out of it.
Go on.
Try not to rip it.
Leave that tray down there when you're finished.
These are whopper nuggets Nidge.
They're made with real chicken.
Going out for a smoke.
Alright Nidge.
How are we doing? Fuckin' madness in there.
Cops.
Where? 012 green.
Yeah.
Keep your eyes on them.
The head bangers that are after me don't give a bollix if there's cops here.
Who the fuck is this? Alright Siobhan? You fuckin' prick.
What? What's the matter with you? Tommy.
What? Tommy! Is he alright? Where is he? Fran.
Alright, come on.
What's going on? Fuck knows.
She's not happy about something.
Will we go over? Trish.
Trish.
Look after Leyton.
Are you alright? Yeah.
Are you alright? What's the matter? Come on.
Stay on the door.
Stay on the door.
Dean.
Where are the dogs? Dean will show you where they are now.
PHONE RINGS.
.
Is that mine? What? The phone.
I can't find mine.
Did I not give it back to you? I think I did.
We can have a look after in the van.
Dean will bring you down to where the dogs are.
We'll pick which one we'll get for Siobhan.
Where is he? It's okay.
It's going to be okay.
Some bleedin' racket out here.
Tommy.
Want a smoke? Yeah.
Are you not going to smoke it? No, I'll save it for later.
PHONE RINGS.
Ah Nidgy.
Fuck off with your Nidgy.
You were seen.
What's that Nidgy? Seen where? Siobhan seen you and Tommy getting into your poxy fuckin' van.
Don't think so.
She saw you and Tommy getting into your van.
That'll stand up in court, will it? Fran please.
Please just let him bleedin' go, will you? Don't go near him.
I'm going to get Dave to give you a call.
What do I want to talk to Dave for? Siobhan, go out there for a second darlin' please.
You fucked off without hearing what he had to say.
Sure Dave's your man.
He looked into this cos I asked him to.
He said that the cops fucked up cos Tommy.
.
There's no way they can use anything he said cos when he's been interviewed.
.
He's brain-damaged so they shouldn't interview him on his own.
There had to be a social worker or someone with him.
One of the coppers fucked up so when he was asking him about you, yer man wasn't in the room.
So what? Whatever he said it can't be used.
Can't be brought up in court.
I'm going to call Dave on the other number.
You stay where you are.
Dave, come on.
Answer the fuckin' phone.
Nidge, what's the story.
Dave, thank fuck.
I can't talk but I need to know what sort of person should've been in with Tommy? Siobhan, for fuck sake.
I'm trying to sort this.
Dave, a person who's there cos Tommy's fucked in the head.
What is it? Appropriate adult.
Appropriate adult, that's all I need.
Keep your phone on, it's an emergency.
You're 100% on that? Yeah.
Great.
Appropriate adult.
What does that mean? < It means there's no way Tommy's statement can be used against you.
You can ring him or someone else.
Jesus Fran, Siobhan seen you with him and we're buddies.
Yeah? Me and you, we're going to go on and do good things.
I'm asking you Fran.
Fran please.
I'm asking you.
Yeah, go on.
It's alright.
You can tell her that Tommy was interested in buying a pup off me.
So it's sorted, yeah? I bleedin' told you it was.
What the fuck are you asking me again for? Fuckin' hell.
Come here.
It's okay.
It's okay.
It's okay.
I thought you wanted another one.
When did I ever say that? You're always saying it.
Fuck sake.
That's all I bleedin' need.
I don't know Nadine.
It could be good for us.
A little Aido running around the gaff.
Fuckin' women.
Pain in the hole.
That's all sorted anyway.
What do you want now? One more time, right.
(HIGH VOICE) How much did you get? How much did you get, was it a million? Go on.
Kids are doin' my bleedin' head in.
Alright buddy? Did you have a good day? Do you want a tissue? I think I've your dose coming in.
PHONE RINGS.

I'll get him to call you.
What? Is it my Ma? Yeah.

Ten minutes ago.

His aul' one, Nidge's ma.
That means we know where he's going to be.
We can follow him.
We can get him at the funeral.
No.
Why? We'll wait, get him another time.
We're not getting him there.
Why not? Cos it's wrong.
I got everything sorted.
Fees are fine.
It's all completely fine.
I was waiting for a couple of things to come through and they did.
That's great.
I don't want you up when I get back.
You can't get up for school in the morning.
You're going out? Yeah.
I'm going to meet Helen and Jane in that new place.
Hiya Nidge.
It's Debbie.
Everything's going great with everything, you know.
With Aido.
I don't know who the fuck you are.
Come here to me, hun.
I'm so sorry to hear about your ma.
Are you alright? Yeah.
What's the story with yer man? He's alright.
He's asking me can he run a tab.
What do you think? Yeah, go on.
Do me a favour? Anything hun.
Tell that junkie crack whore not to be talking to me.

I don't want to know her.
Fuckin' thinks she's special or something.
I'll talk to her.
They will understand.
You shall see the face of God and live.
Be not afraid.
I go before you always.
Come follow me.
And I will give you rest.
If you pass the raging waters in the sea you shall not drown.
If you walk amid the burning flames.
You shall not be harmed.
If you stand before the power of hell and death is at your side.
Know that I am with you through it all.
Be not afraid.
I go before you always.
Come follow me.
And I will give you rest.
